April
22nd,
and
we
are
here
with
our
good
friends
from
public
facilities
Department
and
build
BPS
as
part
of
the
Boston
Public
School
team,
I'd
like
to
remind
folks
this
is
a
public
hearing
and
as
being
broadcast
and
recorded
on
Comcast
channel
eight
RCN,
82,
Verizon
1964
and
streamed
at
Boston
gov
backslash
city
council
TV.
They
asked
folks
in
the
chamber
to
silence
their
electronic
devices
at
the
conclusion
of
the
departmental
presentation
and
questions
from
my
colleagues,
we
will
take
public
testimony.
A
There
is
a
sign-in
sheet
to
my
left
by
the
door.
I
ask
that
you
sign
in
check
the
box.
If
you
do
wish
to
testify
publicly
and
state
your
name
affiliation
and
residence,
this
budget
review
will
encompass
around
34
hearings
over
roughly
the
next
seven
weeks.
We
strongly
encourage
residents,
whether
here
in
the
chamber
or
at
home,
to
take
a
moment
to
engage
in
this
process
by
giving
testimony
for
the
record.
There
are
several
ways
to
do
this.
You
can
come
and
attend
one
of
the
hearings
and
sign
up.
A
You
can
come
to
the
hearing
dedicated
to
public
testimony
on
Tuesday
June
4th
any
time
from
2
to
6
p.m.
we
will
be
here
for
at
least
that
amount
of
time,
and
if
we
need
to,
we
will
stay
longer.
Until
everyone
is
heard,
you
can
send
your

PFD
and
bill
BPS
as
part
of
dockets
0

2
through
0
6
to
5
orders
for
the
FY
2018,
but
including
annual
appropriations
for
departmental
operations,
annual
appropriations
for
the
school
department,
appropriation
for
other
post-employment
benefits
and
appropriation
for
certain
transportation
and
public
realm
improvements,
as
well
as
dockets,
zero.
Six
to
six
through
zero,
six
to
eight
capital
budget
appropriations,
including
loan
orders
and
lease
and
purchase
agreements.
A
Before
I
hand
it
over
to
the
department,
I
was
just
gonna
ask
my
colleagues,
since
we
have
kind
of
a
two-part
hearing
today
where
we
have
public
facilities
to
talk
about
their
capital
projects.
We
also
have
beef
build
PPS,
so
I
would
ask
it
maybe
the
first
round
or
as
many
rounds
as
it
takes
we'll
start
with
PFD
and
then
we'll
go
into
the
build
PPS
for
the
second
or
third
rounds.
Thank
you.
A
Let
me
introduce
my
colleagues
in
order
of
their
arrival
to
my
immediate

at-large
counselor
Anissa
sabi
George

councillor,
Lydia
Edwards
to
my
left,
councilors
Flynn,
councilor,
McCarthy,
councilor,
Baker
and
council,
a
Campbell
to
my
immediate

I
want
to
thank
you
all
for
coming
to
provide
us
with
your
testimony
today
and
with
that
I
will
hand
it
over
to
Trish
hi.
B
B
Bps
initiative,
I'm
Tricia,
Lyons
I'm,
the
director
of
the
public
facilities
department
with
me
today
to
my
immediate
left,
is
Brian
McLaughlin,
our
chief
of
staff
and
next
to
brian,
is
Steve
Bickerton,
our
Assistant
Director
for
planning
and
management
who,
among
other
things,
manages
our
budget
to
my
right
is
Nate
cooter
with
the
Boston
Public
Schools
he'll
be,
and
his
colleagues
will
be
representing
the
bill.
Bps
planning,
should've,
John
Hanlin
is
next
innate
and
Monica
Roberts
is
on
the
end.
B
I
also
have
my
senior
management
team
with
us
in
the
gallery
today
and
I'd
like
to
enough
acknowledge
them,
as
well
as
all
of
our
staff
back
at
Court
Street
and
on
our
job
sites
for
their
strong
dedication
to
the
work
we
do
on
behalf
of
Mayor
Walsh
and
for
the
residents
of
our
city.
We
are
they're
an
incredibly
committed,
Bunch
and
I
am
proud
and
fortunate
to
be
associated
with
them.
I'd
also
like
to
acknowledge
our
friends
from
the
office
of
budget
management.
B
B
What
we
do,
how
we
do
it
and
tell
you
a
little
bit
about
our
staff,
then,
with
your
indulgence,
I'll
run
through
a
few
highlights
from
our
project
caseload
and
at
that
point,
I'll
turn
it
our
presentation
over
to
Nate
from
bps
who
will
give
an
overview
of
the
build
bps
initiative.
And
after
that,
we're
happy
to
answer
any
questions
you
may
have
so
in
terms
of
what
we
do.
I'll
start
by
differentiating
what
PFD
does
as
compared
to
some
of
our
sister
agencies
throughout
the
city,
which
can
often
be
a
point
of
confusion.
B
Pfd
is
responsible
for
managing
planning,
design
and
construction
projects
at
city-owned
buildings.
This
is
an
important
distinction
and
is
what
separates
our
work
from
the
work
of
other
municipal
agencies.
The
Boston
planning
and
development
agency,
for
example,
is
responsible
for
monitoring
private
development,
including
the
article
80
review
process,
as
well
as
managing
larger
urban
planning
initiatives.
The
city's
Department
of
Neighborhood
Development
is
primarily
responsible
for
housing
initiatives
and
real
estate
management
and
disposition.
The
Public,
Works
transportation
and
Parks
departments
are
responsible
for
non
building,
design
and
construction
projects
at
Purdue's
roadways
and
parts
respectively.
B
Many
of
those
are
also
funded
through
Mayor
Walsh's
capital
plan.
As
I
said,
the
public
facilities
department
manages
design
and
construction
projects
on
city-owned
buildings
that
are
funded
through
Mayor
Walsh's
capital
plan.
Under
his
currently
proposed
FY
twenty
to
twenty
four
capital
plan,
we
are
responsible
for
delivering
roughly
37
percent
of
the
2.7,
eight
billion
dollar
value
of
the
plan,
or
just
around
a
billion
dollars.
B
These
projects
are
in
every
neighborhood
of
the
city
and
we
partner
with
a
large
number
of
city
departments
like
the
Boston
Public
Schools
Boston
centers
for
youth
and
families,
the
Boston
Public
Library,
all
of
the
sort
of
first
responder
agencies
and
many
others
managing
capital
projects
on
their
behalf,
making
sure
they're
built
to
a
high
quality.
Our
on-time
and
on-budget
our
typical
project,
prop
our
typical
projects,
are
delivered
in
one
of
two
ways:
both
options
strictly
adhering
to
public
procurement
laws
for
relating
to
our
work.
B
One
method
is
called
design-bid-build
that
is
regulated
through
the
Mass
General
Laws
chapter
149.
Under
that
scenario,
which
typically
encompasses
most
of
our
work,
will
play
a
role
in
assisting
user
agencies
and
the
office
of
budget
management
in
defining
the
scope
and
budget
for
a
project
being
considered
for
inclusion
in
the
capital
plan.
Some
projects
require
deeper
programming
or
sighting
analysis
before
starting
design
and
others
can
bypass
that
effort
upon
appropriation
of
funding
and
after
the
study
is
complete.
B
Pfd
begins
the
process
of
selecting
and
hiring
a
designer
that
is
also
governed
through
public
procurement
requirements.
Once
the
designer
is
selected
and
a
contract
is
negotiated
and
executed,
the
design
process
begins,
depending
on
the
size
and
complexity
of
the
project.
Design
can
typically
take
anywhere
from
one
year
to
18
months,
possibly
even
up
to
two
years
to
complete
and
again
depending
on
the
project.
Public
meetings
to
get
community
input
and
feedback
occur
during
the
design
process.
B
Upon
completion
of
the
design,
the
projects
will
be
publicly
bid
for
construction.
Pfd
is
required
by
law
to
hire
the
lowest
eligible
and
responsible
bidder
to
perform
the
construction
once
the
bid
has
been
accepted
and
the
contract
requirements
are
met.
The
contractors
work
begins
at
the
end
of
construction
when
all
the
work
is
done.
B
The
building
is
then
turned
back
over
to
the
user
agencies
for
use
and
maintenance.
These
PFD
projects,
depending
on
their
complexity,
can
take
anywhere
between
two
to
five
years
on
average.
From
start
to
finish,
the
second
method
of
project
delivery
is
called
construction
management
at
risk
and
that
is
regulated
through
the
Mass
General
Laws
chapter
149.
A
this
method
is
used
on
our
largest
and
most
complex
projects.
B
Although
the
basic
path
of
project
completion
is
similar,
this
method
requires
PFD
to
supplement
our
team
with
an
owner's
project
management
firm,
and
it
also
requires
hiring
the
contractor
during
design
to
participate
in
the
development
of
the
design
documents.
The
benefit
of
this
message
method
is
that
it
encourages
a
more
collaborative
approach
among
the
project
participants
and
it
allows
for
early
construction
packages
to
move
forward
before
the
design
is
completed.
It's
a
very
complex
delivery
method
and
does
require
additional
costs,
but
typically
it
results
in
a
more
coordinated
delivery
and
a
high-quality
outcome.
B
Our
current
staff
of
61
members
are
all
involved
in
one
way
or
another
in
our
project
delivery
process,
the
majority
of
our
staff,
our
design
and
construction
professionals.
Our
project
managers
are
responsible
for
project
delivery
from
cradle
to
grave.
As
we
say,
our
design
staff
serve
as
internal
resources,
helping
to
ensure
the
highest
quality
designs.
B
Our
clerks
of
the
works,
our
day-to-day
on-site
professionals,
who
we
call
our
eyes
and
ears
on
the
projects
as
they
get
into
construction,
and
we
also
have
a
number
of
support
professionals
who
assist
on
the
many
tasks
required
on
our
projects,
including
procurement,
contracting
and
legal
services,
paying
bills
tracking
progress.
Essentially,
every
member
of
our
department
plays
a
role
in
our
projects
before
you
today
is
PFDs
FY,
2018
budget
totaling,
seven
million
one
hundred
and
sixty
nine
thousand
six
hundred
and
eighty
nine
dollars.
B
This
represents
a
six
percent
increase
over
the
FY
19
budget,
as
can
often
be
expected
from
a
service
organization
just
over.
Ninety
four
percent
of
our
budget
is
allocated
to
personnel
expenses,
while
just
under
six
percent
covers
our
typical
operating
expenses.
The
six
percent
increase
over
our
FY
19
budget
is
largely
due
to
collective
bargaining
increases
and
the
addition
of
two
new
positions.
B
An
assistant
director
position
to
support
the
increase
in
project
management
staff
over
the
last
few
years,
an
increase
in
volume
of
our
project
caseload,
which
has
risen
to
over
five
hundred
and
fifty
million
dollars
with
another
hundred
and
twenty
million
dollars
slated.
To
start
over
the
next
year,
we
also
hope
to
add
a
project
manager
for
studies
position
to
increase
our
capacity
to
manage
a
large
number
of
studies
that
are
funded
through
the
mayor's
capital
plan.
B
In
terms
of
the
types
of
projects
we
manage,
they
generally
fall
into
three
broad
categories:
brand
new
buildings
are
ground-up
construction
and
major
renovations
projects
like
the
Boston
Arts
Academy,
where
we're
demolishing
the
old
bill
and
we'll
be
building
a
new
school
at
the
same
site
or
the
East
Boston
police
station,
where
we're
building
a
new
facility
on
a
city-owned
parcel
at
East,
Eagle
Street
or
the
Dudley
Library,
where
we're
keeping
the
basic
structure
in
place,
but
are
completely
modifying
and
renovating
the
building.
We
also
managed
facility
upgrades
and
infrastructure
improvements.
Example.
B
We
also
managed
studies
to
identify
programmatic
needs
for
buildings
and
translate
them
into
building
and
space
requirements
for
future
projects.
Examples
of
those
include
the
fields
corner
branch
library
study
where
we're
determining
what
might
be
needed
to
better
meet
the
beep,
the
Boston
Public
Libraries
compass
principles
for
the
library
itself
and
are
exploring
the
potential
opportunity
for
a
public-private
partnership
at
the
site
as
well,
and
we're
also
performing
a
study
to
determine
the
space
requirements
needed
for
a
new
Emergency,
Operations
Center
and
explore
potential
sites
for
that
facility.
B
Pfd
has
had
a
busy
and
productive
year
in
FY
19
we've
been
able
to
complete
a
number
of
really
great
projects
that
have
been
very
well
received
in
our
neighborhood
communities.
Some
highlights
include
the
Dearborn
STEM
Academy,
which
is
setting
a
very
high
standard
across
the
nation
for
stem
schools.
We've
renovated
community
centers
and
libraries
that
are
always
centerpieces
in
the
hearts
of
our
neighborhoods.
B
We've
also
got
some
really
great
projects
underway
and
a
number
of
exciting
projects
waiting
to
start
in
the
interest
of
time.
I
won't
go
through
all
of
them,
but
we're
including
some
highlights
in
the
remaining
slides,
the
Boston
Public
Library.
Improvements
are
among
our
most
popular
and
beloved
projects.
Mayor
Walsh
has
made
renovating
our
branches
in
the
Central
Library
a
cornerstone
of
the
capital
plan
and
we're
making
significant
progress,
as
you
can
see
by
the
impressive
list
of
highlights.
B
These
include
the
Dudley
square
branch,
which
is
under
construction
and
slated
to
be
complete
this.
This
fall
the
Roslindale
and
Adams
branch,
libraries
that
are
completing
design
and
plan
to
start
construction
this
year
and
the
Fanueil
branch
library
for
which
we've
just
hired
a
designer
and
we'll
begin
designing
in
earnest
in
the
next
month
or
so.
B
B
That
combined
with
the
Salem
Street
building
that
was
completed
last
year,
will
represent
a
nearly
43
million
dollar
investment
over
the
last
few
years
in
two
of
the
three
buildings
that
make
up
the
Elliott
School
campus.
We're
also
completely
transforming
the
Sumner
school
yard
in
Roslindale,
which
combined
with
a
window
replacement
project
in
2017
and
a
boiler
replacement
this
summer
through
the
MSB
A's
accelerated
repair
program
will
have
allowed
us
to
complete
nearly
5
million
dollars
worth
of
investments
in
that
school
over
the
last
two
years,
along
with
the
Summoner
we'll.
Also.
B
Mayor
Walsh
is
also
making
significant
investments
in
our
police,
fire
and
EMS
facilities,
we'll
be
getting
into
construction
this
summer
on
engine
42
in
Roxbury,
which
will
be
the
first
new
fire
station
built
in
the
city.
In
more
than
25
years.
It's
been
designed
to
incorporate
the
Boston
Fire
Department's
new
health
and
wellness
initiative
for
its
firefighters.
B
We've
already
begun
the
work
to
temporary
temporarily
relocate
the
fire
services
nearby
so
that
we
can
reconstruct
the
new
building
on
the
existing
site,
we'll
also
be
completing
a
4.4
million
dollar
renovation
at
engine
50
in
Charlestown,
which
will
also
incorporate
PFDs
program
for
health
and
wellness.
In
addition,
as
I
previously
mentioned
for
the
Boston
Police
Department,
we
will
begin
construction
this
summer
for
a
new
police
station
at
East,
Eagle
Street
in
East
Boston.
B
We
are
also
continuing
our
proactive
repairs
to
the
historic
Fanueil
Hall
and
we're
working
on
some
much-needed
improvements
to
the
office
facility
at
Court
Street
and
we're
also
underway
with
some
great
projects
for
the
Boston
centers
for
youth
and
families
in
the
parks
facilities
will
be
in
construction
this
year
on
a
renovation
to
the
Paris
street
pool
which
will
complement
the
beautiful
renovation
to
the
Paris
Street
community
center.
That
was
completed
last
year.
B
B
And
beyond
our
project
management,
we
are
also
partnering
with
many
of
our
sister
agencies
on
various
major
program
initiatives,
we're
working
with
the
Environment
Department
and
the
Office
of
Budget
management
on
the
renew
Boston
trust
program
that
focuses
on
energy
efficiency.
Improvements
at
city-owned
buildings,
we're
working
on
a
10
million
dollar
pilot
projects
at
14
buildings.
Right
now
and
our
beginning
discussions
about
excuse
me
expanding
the
program
to
a
second
phase
encompassing
more
buildings
and
energy
conservation
measures.
The
next
phase
will
be
a
larger
project
with
a
targeted
budget
of
35
million
dollars.
B
We
are
also
working
with
the
Environment
Department
and
other
agencies
on
the
climate
action
plan
update
our
intent
is
to
understand
at
a
more
detailed
level
what
we
as
a
city,
need
to
do
to
to
our
buildings
to
meet
the
mayor's
commitment
to
carbon
neutrality
in
2015
and
we're
also
working
with
the
mayor's
office
of
recovery
services
and
the
Health
and
Human
Services
cabinet.
On
a
master
plan
for
recovery
campus
on
Long
Island,
we're
coordinating
with
the
public
works
department
who
is
managing
the
project
to
replace
Long
Island
Bridge.
B
Our
master
plan
will
articulate
a
vision
for
the
campus
determine
the
service
needs
that
will
be
accommodated
on
the
and
we'll
propose
a
service
model
and
implementation
plan
for
achieving
that
vision
and
we're
also
focusing
as
an
organization
on
improving
our
operations
in
our
project.
Delivery
processes,
we're
currently
partnering
with
the
Public
Works
Department
and
the
parks
department
to
implement
be
builder
project
management.
Software
we're
incredibly
grateful
to
Mayor
Walsh
for
investing
in
our
departments
by
providing
a
tool
that
will
better
allow
us
to
provide
consistency
in
our
project
delivery
process.
B
We'll
give
our
project
managers
the
tools
they
need
to
more
effectively
manage
their
projects
and
we'll
give
our
management
team
data
by
which
we
can
better
measure
and
monitor
our
productivity
and
efficiency,
will
be
piloting
the
program
later
this
year
and
hope
to
be
fully
operational
in
the
current
in
the
upcoming
months
and
last.
Finally,
we're
also
partnering
with
the
Boston
Public
Schools
to
assist,
advise
and
implement
the
projects
being
identified
through
the
build
bps
initiative.
A
A
C
He's
in
tation
at
least
the
first
half
of
it
look
forward
to
the
rest
of
it.
One
of
the
changes
that's
fairly
new
to
us
here
in
the
city.
Is
you
our
Department
interest
of
taking
over
a
lot
of
the
efforts
of
PBS's
facilities?
Department?
Can
we
talk
about
the
impact
that
that's
made
on
your
working
on
any
savings
that
we
maybe
have
realized
our
efficiencies
realized
well,.
B
Are
supplementing
our
team
and
our
ability
to
manage
an
increased
caseload
and
in
an
expected
increased
caseload
down
the
road
it
and
it
will
provide
for
a
more
consistent
delivery
of
school
projects
going
forward.
The
Boston
Public
Schools
still
has
you
know,
sort
of
maintenance
responsibilities
and-
and
there
are
projects
associated
with
that
and
that
falls
under
John
Hamlin's
group
in
the
operations
department,
and
so
so,
there's
still
work
being
done
through
BPS.
But
the
major
capital
projects
and
infrastructure
projects
are
being
managed
through
PFD
right.
C
And
then
one
of
the
projects
that
you
mentioned
is
the
my
way
cafe
and
the
investments
that
we're
looking
to
make
over
the
next
school
year
that
we've
made
so
far
through
facilities.
You
talked
a
little
I
I'm
a
little
confused
about
the
our
investment
or
the
degree
that
we're
investing
resources
and
funding
for
the
my
way,
cafe
I
mean
involvement
of
private
foundation
dollars
in
that
work.
B
C
C
Chair
for
a
future,
clarification
is
with
this
investment-
the
five
million
this
year,
the
investment
that
we
made
last
year,
I'm
curious
about
the
sort
of
the
balance
and
those
resources
with
private
dollars
versus
what
we're
investing
as
a
school
system
or
as
a
city.
Then
my
last
question
for
this
round
is
on
Long
Island.
You
know
this
is
been
an
ongoing
effort
on
behalf
of
the
city,
we're
all
in
the
same
team.
Trying
to
get
this
work
done.
I
know
that
we've
hit
road
bumps.
C
B
B
From
for
from
facilities
standpoint,
we
are
working
with
the
office
of
recovery
services
in
HHS
to
master
plan
the
the
island
in
anticipation
of
having
services
on
that
Island
when
the
when
the
bridge
opens
up
so
that
people
as
they
drive
across
that
bridge,
have
places
to
go
to
to
get
the
services
they
they
so
richly
need
and
deserve.
The
master
planning
process
is
underway.
We've
hired
consultants
that
a
team
of
consultants
that
include
both
architecture,
architects
and
engineers,
as
well
as
recovery
services.
She
lists
its.
It
will
be
a
very
robust
master
plan.
B
A
year
to
complete
the
master
planning
process,
that
would
involve
probably
a
four
phased
approach,
where
we
sort
of
establish
a
vision
for
the
campus,
then
come
up
with
some
options
for
service
delivery
and
service
models,
and
then
talk
a
little
bit
about
what
work
needs
to
be
done
to
the
facilities
on
the
islands
on
the
island
to
accommodate
those
services
and
finish
up
with
cost
estimating
and
an
implementation
plan.
I.
B
Imagine
that
the
the
renovations
to
the
building
since
they've
been
vacant
for
some
time
may
take
may
take
a
little
time,
but
we
would
certainly
try
to
work.
Our
plan
to
you
know
sort
of
accelerate
the
spaces
that
we
can
make
available
as
quickly
as
possible
and
then
work
our
way
toward
a
master
plan.
I.
B
To
that
is
correct,
we
hired
a
team
of
architects
and
engineers
to
evaluate
each
of
the
17
buildings
out
there
on
the
campus
and
we're
in
the
process
of
reviewing
finalized
reports
and
the
condition
analysis
will
be
fed
into
the
master
planning
process
as
we
make
decisions
down
the
road.
Okay.
Thank.
B
D
Wanted
to
thank
you
so
much
for
your
work
so
far,
especially
in
my
district
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
I
understood
your
dates
for
your
investments,
so
I'm
just
confirming
then
for
the
Parrish
Street
pool
it'll,
be
this
fall
that
you
start
the
renovations,
that's
correct:
we
anticipate
starting
constructions
and
then
it
was
for
the
the
east
Eagle
Police
Station.
The
new
site
was
going
to
start
this
summer.
Yes,
this
summer,
so.
B
B
D
Don't
have
to
get
that
granular
right
now.
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
I
was
clear
on
at
least
the
starting
times
for
both
of
them.
I
am
it's
okay,
you
sure
yeah
I'm
just
so
happy
that
they're,
starting
both
this
year,
just
to
make
sure
I
understood
I
apologize
if
I
stepped
out.
When
you
were
just
explaining
the
new
animal
shelter
program,
the
animal
there's
an
investment
there.
B
D
Can't
help
but
commend
you
a
thousand
times
over
for
taking
that
leadership.
I
think
we're
finding
an
increasing
amount
of
animals
and
that's
a
good
thing,
they're
part
of
our
families,
but
a
lot
of
them.
Some,
not
all
pet
owners,
are
as
responsible
if
you'd
like
them
to
be
and
we're
finding
an
increased
amount
of
loose
animals
and
cats
and
dogs
that
need
to
be
at
least
cared
for,
or
at
least
accounted
for.
D
So
I
really
do
appreciate
this
investment
in
this
initiative
and
at
least
studying
the
issue,
so
we
can
figure
out
how
to
really
make
sure
we
have
the
most
responsible
system
for
for
our
pets
and
family
members.
So
thank
you
so
much
for
that.
I
want
to
follow
up
very
briefly
on
the
questioning
of
my
colleague
about
Long
Island,
so
in
your
visioning
or
in
the
visions
of
city's
visions.
Thus
far
for
this
campus
I
understand
the
politics
behind.
D
You
know
how,
when
and
timing
so
I'm
not
going
to
ask
about
that,
but
in
terms
of
the
vision
and
funding
and
paying
for
it,
the
use.
Is
there
an
expected
private
public
partnership
with
us?
I
only
ask
that,
because
what
I'm
seeing
consistently
is
due
to
the
lack
of
funding
from
the
federal
government
to
decrease
funding
from
the
state,
we
are
finding
that
we
have
at
least
with
housing,
had
to
bring
in
some
private
dollars
to
help
build
out
some
of
the
unit's
at
market
rate,
to
help
to
pay
for
the
public
use.
D
B
A
it's
a
little
too
early
in
the
process
for
me
to
speculate.
It
is
an
exercise
that
the
master
plan
will
contemplate
and
and
really
look
at
financing
models
to
my
understanding,
we're
not
looking
at
a
private,
you
know
sort
of
housing,
investment
or
private
use
on
the
island.
It's
strictly.
Our
focus
is
strictly
on
a
recovery
campus
and
whether
that
involves
some
of
our
our
recovery
services
providers
or
not
I'm,
just
not
sure,
but
we
will
be.
We
will
be
analyzing
that,
through
the
master
plan,
thank.
D
You
and-
and
so
this
is
I
thought
your
first
slide
was
very
very
helpful
in
helping
me
understand
where
to
direct
my
question.
Yes,
and
so
I
won't
be
directing
a
good
chunk
of
them
to
you,
because
you
tell
me
where
I
should
go
here
but
help
my
educate
me
more
there's
two
projects
that
I
know
are
in
my
district
and
they
are
city
buildings
but
because
they're
becoming
privately
owned.
Maybe
educate
me
now
about
the
like
the
Bizzaro
center.
That
process
is
that
with
you
guys
or
because
it's
going
to
one
day
be
RFP.
D
B
Not
it
is,
it
does
get
a
little
bit
mixed
at
some
level.
We
are
public
facilities,
the
public
facilities,
Department
is
finishing
up
a
programming
and
siting
study
for
a
new
North
End
community
center,
which
we're
very
excited
about.
Yes,
we
have
a
meeting
on
three
day
night
to
present
to
the
community
and
yeah.
Hopefully,
everyone
will
be
thrilled.
B
B
The
recommendation
will
move
the
services
away
from
the
existing
Mazzara
center
because
it's
simply
not
big
enough
to
handle
the
program
as
desired
and
immunity,
so
the
the
disposition
of
the
Nazzaro
center
will
go
on
its
own
process.
There's
a
lot
of
conversation
that
will
have
to
be
had
in
terms
of
what
that
building
becomes.
That
typically
gets
managed
through
the
Department
of
Neighborhood
Development
I'm,
assuming.
D
B
The
public
facilities
department
doesn't
have
care
and
custody
of
any
buildings.
The
Boston
Centers
for
Youth
and
Family
actually
have
care
and
custody
of
the
existing
Nazzaro
Center
right.
If
there
is
determined
to
be
some
sort
of
use
for
Boston
Center,
so
yeah
for
youth
and
families,
I
assume
that
that
building
will
not
be
surplus
if
it's
determined
that
there's
a
higher
and
better
use
for
the
building,
either
for
another
city
program
or
something
else,
housing
or
something
that
would
go
through
another
process.
So.
D
D
B
D
E
E
I've
read
about
the
program
study
for
the
shona,
Chinatown
library,
so
I
know
that
is
greatly
appreciated
in
the
in
the
community
after
they
haven't
had
a
library
in
50
years.
I
want
to
thank
mayor,
Walsh
and
his
team
for
working
hard
to
work
with
the
community
on
locating
and
eventually
building
a
library.
So
that's
gonna,
that's
great
news
for
our
for
our
community
in
Tricia.
E
Could
you
give
us
a
little
update
on
the
Curley
community
center
in
South,
Boston
I
know
it's
ongoing
progress
is
being
made,
but
what's
what's
the
latest
on
it,
I
know
the
city
is
committed
to
committed
to
this
recreation
facility.
What's
what's
the
latest
that
you
have
on
on
the
Curley
councillor.
B
B
E
Just
generally
speaking,
maybe
you
could
maybe
you
could
reference
the
Coralie
community
center
as
well,
but
what
role
would
a
DA
compliance
and
access
to
our
disabled
have
on
your
thinking,
as
it
relates
to
projects
that
need
to?
We
need
to
make
sure
that
all
residents
have
equal
access
to
to
all
of
our
facilities.
Any
just
general
general
comments
on
that
sure.
B
Essentially,
every
project
that
we
manage
it's
designed
through
that
lens
and
to
the
extent
possible
we
we
try
to
provide
for
as
much
access
as
we
can
in
the
buildings.
This
is
an
exciting
opportunity,
particularly
for
the
Carla
Community
Center,
because
not
only
will
we
be
providing
access
into
the
building
depending
on
what
our
entrance
or
entrances
look
like,
but,
as
you
know,
will
be
reconfiguring
the
interior
of
the
building
and
and
that
will
be
required
to
meet
accessibility
codes
as
well,
so
we'll
be
providing
greater
access
in
that
building.
E
B
Think
that's
something
that
we
would
sort
of
work
with
the
disabilities
Commission,
as
well
as
the
Boston
centers
for
youth
and
families,
to
talk
about
what
the
options
are
in
that
regard.
Some
of
them
may
be
simple
equipment
purchases.
That
would,
you
know,
require
the
staff
out
there
to
manage.
Some
may
require
building
interventions,
but
will
will
determine
that
during
the
design
as
well
and.
E
F
Thank
You
Tricia,
so
with
the
Kyra
school,
we
just
reached
a
major
milestone
with
the
math
school
Building
Authority
two
weeks
ago.
They
voted
to
move
the
project
into
that
capital
pipeline
which
allows
us
to
move
forward
to
bring
on
a
owners,
project
manager
and
architect
to
stop
the
design
of
the
actual
future
kata
school
that
bringing
on
the
consultant
team
usually
takes
a
few
months.
F
B
Sorry
I
just
like
to
add
that
I
noted
that
the
Carter
School
is
very
special
to
us,
the
just
so
that
you
know
the
public
facilities.
Department
has
sort
of
adopted.
The
Carter
School
is
our
our
partner
for
our
one
Boston
day
days
of
service.
Okay
and
we've
been
doing
it
for
about
four
years
now
principal
mark
O'connor
is
amazing.
His
staff
is
amazing.
The
students
are
amazing
and
we're
really
very
excited
to
work
on
this
project
at
a
very
personal
level.
Well,.
E
Thank
you
for
your
great
work
and
thank
you
to
the
bps
staff
that
is
also
here
on
the
cauda
school.
You
know
I,
said
earlier
that
a
budget
is
a
reflection
of
your
values
and
that's
a
real
commitment
to
the
students
of
Boston
and
the
youth
of
Boston
that
have
disabilities
is
investing
investing
money
into
our
students
that
really
need
it
at
the
Cata
schools.
E
G
Thank
You
councillor
siamo,
and
thank
you
guys
for
all
that.
You
do.
You
know
Trish
frying
Steve,
you
go,
you
don't
have
easy
jobs.
So
thank
you
and
clearly
you're
doing
things
at
schools.
I
mean
it's
nonstop,
so
I
appreciate
you
guys
in
the
work
that
you
do.
I
just
I.
Don't
have
a
lot
of
questions
just
to
follow
up
on
the
my
way
cafe.
I
know
we're
still
gonna
wait,
I
think
for
the
financial
breakdowns
of
how
the
money
is
split
between
private
and
public
dollars.
G
G
B
This
second
phase
I,
think
I,
said
30
schools,
but
I
believe
it's
29
schools
that
will
be
addressed
as
well,
17
of
which
will
be
bid
now,
seventeen
of
which
will
be
bid
through
public
facilities
and
the
rest
will
be
managed
by
Boston
Public
Schools.
The
the
the
schools
lists
are
long.
If,
if
it
would
be
helpful,
we
could
provide
those
lists
after
the
hearing
that.
G
H
B
H
H
What
that
process,
gonna
look
like
like
is
DSN
I
in
a
pot
or
in
on
that
side
of
the
street.
I
know
Citizens
Bank
and
some
of
those
parcels
is
DSN
I
a
partner
in
on
the
Strand
the
up
on
this
corner,
because
that
to
me
correct
me,
if
I'm
wrong
looks
like
one
sort
of
parcel
from
The
Strand
all
the
way
over
to
where
the
proposed
library
is
gonna,
be.
Can
you
can
you
kind
of
just
give
me
a
quick
how
that
process
is
gonna
play
out
in
SDS
and
I
involved
in
that,
so.
B
But
in
terms
of
the
management
of
the
process
as
well,
the
the
RFP
process
for
for
the
development
is
being
managed
through
the
Department
of
Neighborhood
Development,
in
partnership
with
the
Office
of
Economic,
Development
I.
Believe
public
facilities
is
playing
a
role
with
the
Boston
Public
Library
to
sort
of
define
the
needs
for
the
library.
B
It's
still
a
little
bit
unclear
as
to
how
the
project
will
be
delivered,
whether
it
would
be
built
by
a
developer
down
the
road
or
if
it
will
be
built
by
the
city
in
totality.
If
it's
built
by
a
developer,
I'm
imagining
a
process
where
a
developer
would
give
the
city
sort
of
a
shell
of
a
building,
and
then
we
would
work
with
the
library
department
to
build
that
shell
out
into
the
library
itself.
B
Right
now,
we
are
working
with
the
library
department
to
do
sort
of
a
typical
library
programming
study,
like
we've
done
with
with
the
other
projects
as
well.
That
will
give
us
the
opportunity
to
either
if
we
were
to
build
it
ourselves,
just
sort
of
go
forward
in
design
and
build
the
building
like
we
normally
do
or
if
we
end
up
working
with
a
developer
sort
of
be
able
to
give
them
our
needs
and
our
wants
and
work
with
them
to
ensure
that
the
library's
needs
are
met.
H
So
now
is
that,
because
we
talk
in
library,
but
that
pasal
to
me
looks
like
it
stretches
all
the
way
over,
this
will
the
will
they
be
separated.
Will
it
be
strand
RFP
library,
I
have
P,
because
also
there's
talk
about
and
I
would
love
to
see
it
happen,
residential
above
that
library?
Hopefully
you
know
elderly
elderly
housing
up
there
do
you
do.
We
are
we've
far
along
enough
in
the
process
to
know
what
that's
going
to
look
like
I.
B
H
Okay,
so
we'll
wait
till
the
in
deed
and
see
how
that
process
plays
out
the
fire
house
up
on
up
on
meeting
house.
Can
we
talk
about
that?
A
little
bit?
Have
we
have
we
worked
it
out
with
the
church?
Are
we
gonna
build
on
that
church
parking
lot
there?
Do
you
have
a
sense
of
how
that's
gonna
play
out
so.
B
H
B
H
B
That's
something
that
we'll
have
to
work
out
in
design
for
engine
42.
We
were
able
to
find
a
location
where
we
could
build
a
temporary
sort
of
fire
station
that
they
could
relocate
to.
That's
that's
near
in
close
proximity
to
where
they
are
now,
which
will
allow
us
to
demolish
the
existing
building
and
builds
new
and
then
they'll
move
back
in
when
the
project
is
done.
Okay,.
H
I
H
That's
what
I'm
getting
at
the
the
Leahy
Halloran
does
fabulous
work
and
they
have
to
share
the
pool
with
Latin,
School
and
so
I've
been
pushing
for
a
study
on
on
a
standalone
I'll
be
done
in
one
second,
mr.
Chia,
a
standalone
building
for
the
Leahy
Haller
and
I
was
just
wondering
if
that
that
ask
has
finally
come
to
fruition
here
by
a
study
for
that.
So,
if
maybe
Brian
or
pick
you
can
do
some
follow-up
on
that
form.
J
Regarding
the
Long
Island
stuff,
so
I'll
leave
that
as
we
get
further
deep
but
Trish.
Thank
you
and
your
staff
district
5
is
well
taken.
Care
of
and
I
appreciate
that
the
Rose
nyl
library
is
a
long
time
coming.
That
getting
done
is
a
big
step
as
well
as
the
mat
hona
is
taking
a
bit
of
a
beatin.
As
of
lately.
The
money
sunk
into
there
is
gonna,
be
really
appreciated
in
my
Mattapan
neighborhood
a
couple
questions
regarding
the
high
parking
but
I
brought
up
with
the
earlier
the
overall
budget,
the
police
academy.
J
Are
we
thinking
about
building
a
new
one
at
some
point
time,
and
my
explanation
earlier
was
very
simple.
As
you
know,
our
police
force
is
aging
and
in
the
next
three
four
five
years,
we're
gonna
age
out
a
lot
of
boston,
police
officers
and
the
grammar
school
that
they
now
train
and
simply
is
not
large
enough
and
really
it's
that's
a
that's
a
police
academy
that
should
be
used
for
like
Nantucket,
not
for
Boston,
and
it
should
be.
It
should
be
redone
and
rebuilt
at
some
point
in
time.
B
B
J
You
know
I
mean
it's
in
High
Park
and
the
neighbors
up
and
family
love
having
them.
There
talk
about
security,
but
it's
time
you
know
they
need
a
bigger
space.
So
that's
my
my
other
first
question
and
my
second
question
would
be
more
of
a
statement.
I
see
was
thinking
more
money
into
City
Hall.
Is
there
any
thoughts
of
getting
rid
of
this
than
to
block
with
curtains
or
we
we're
stuck
here?
This
is
where
it's
gonna
be.
We.
J
That's
it
I.
Look
for
you
know
this
is
the
the
overview
budget
I'm
not
going
to
get
into
any
detail.
Questions
now
and
we'll
see
you
in
a
couple
weeks
over
the
next
couple
weeks,
but
I
really
appreciate
what
you've
you've
done
in
the
mayor's
administration
has
done
for
district
5
over
the
last
six
years,
we're
in
very
good
hands
as
we're
spending.
You
know
a
little
little
north
of
36
million
dollars
in
district
5
and
capital
very
thankful
for
myself
and
my
constituents.
Thank
you
and.
K
Much
mr.
chair
and
certainly
want
to
thank
the
team
for
being
here
today.
I
want
to
thank
councillor
Flynn
for
your
questions
on
the
Carter
School
and
thank
you
for
your
dedication
to
the
Carter
school,
which
is
in
my
district.
So
I
really
appreciate
that
I
know.
A
lot
of
questions
were
asked
about.
Long
Island
just
wanted
to
follow
up
I
think
it
was
councillor
Edwards
that
asked
about
the
funding
public
versus
private.
K
K
B
K
B
K
You
because
the
Vine
Street,
which
again
my
project,
it's
wonderful,
it's
beautiful
I,
was
just
at
an
event.
Last
week,
I
had
my
Easter
egg
hunt
over
the
weekend.
The
the
young
dancers
from
Vine
Street
came
and
performed
wonderful,
but
really
missed
the
mark
in
terms
of
making
sure
that
those
jobs
went
to
Boston
residents,
people
of
color
and
women,
and
it
got
on
my
radar.
You
know
the
job
was
already
done
by
the
time.
K
B
B
We,
we
pulled
them
in
frankly
and
said
that
these
these
efforts
are
real
and
you
are
going
to
be
expected
to
make
your
best
efforts
at
meeting
these
numbers
and
we
even
gave
them
a
chance
just
sort
of
withdraw
from
the
project,
but
they
sort
of
pulled
their
bootstraps
up
and
said.
You
know
we're
ready,
we're
gonna
we're
going
to
do
our
best.
B
They
true
to
our
word
and
to
your
efforts
and
the
bus,
employment,
Commission's
efforts
and
the
small
and
local
business
efforts,
they've
kind
of
been
held
to
their
word
or
at
least
been
made
to
put
their
best
faith
effort
in
and
I
think
that
they've
shown
some
good
effort
there.
Certainly
there
they're
not
meeting
their
numbers
yet,
but
they're
working
toward
them.
The
latest
numbers
that
I've
seen
or
that
they
were
only
at
30%
Boston
residents,
which
is
concerning
there.
K
I
appreciate
that
and
I
think
it's
important
that
they
hear
it
from
from
everyone.
So
it's
important
that
you
guys
are
holding
them
accountable
as
well
as
myself
and
others
in
the
community
who
are
monitoring
the
numbers
as
well.
And
that
being
said,
like
I
said
earlier,
there
has
been
an
increase,
which
is
great
since
we
started
to
pay
attention.
K
One
of
the
things
that
I've
noticed
across
the
board
is
that
many
of
the
projects
are
struggling
with
residents
and
I,
wonder
how
much
of
that
is
due
to
people
being
forced
to
look
outside
of
the
city
for
housing
now
and
are
not
in
the
people
who
used
to
be
in
the
city
are
now
outside
of
the
city,
but
they're
still
doing
work
in
the
city.
I
hear
the
buzzer
going
off
so
I
will
limit
my
time,
but
I
appreciate
the
work
that
you're
doing
and
thank
you.
Thank.
B
L
L
L
L
So
the
courthouse
is
technically
it's
attached
to
the
police
station
for
obvious
reasons,
and
if
the
police
they're
gonna
go
up
to
to
the
east
Eagle
Street.
If
they're
gonna
move
up
there,
then
that's
gonna
leave
that
space
vacant
and
if
we're
gonna
repurpose.
That
I
would
just
ask
that
a
conversation
happened
with
the
district
attorney's
office.
Just
makes
some
sense
to
to
give
them
either
right
of
first
refusal,
or
maybe
some
type
of
partnership
would
result
in.
L
You
know
positive
space
there,
quick
stamp
showing
on
the
Elliott
school
for
on
Commercial
Street
and
just
an
update
as
to
how
those
renovations
are
coming
and
then
what
will
be
and
then
maybe
this
is
more
of
a
school
issue.
But
will
the
total
school
population
be
when
the
renovations
are
done?
Will
we
be
able
to
add
seats
to
that
great
thriving
Elliott
school
I?
Would.
B
L
B
H
B
B
H
I
I
H
I
Well,
it's
it's
a
variety
of
services
that
we
use
as
part
of
our
operation,
including
training
for
staff
maintenance
of
we
pay
a
share
of
the
maintenance
of
the
building
courts
tree.
We
pay
for
maintenance,
II,
elevators
trash
and
ruleville
security
services,
cleaning
services-
things
like
that.
So
that
makes
up
probably
about
90%
of
that
number.
Okay,.
H
A
E
Follow-Up
question:
it's
not,
as
it
relates
to
the
communication
you
have
with
whether
it's
ISD
or
the
fire
department,
as
it
relates
to
the
fire
codes,
making
sure
that
all
of
our
city
buildings
are
are
safe
and
up-to-date
and
Public.
Safety
is
certainly
certainly
always
a
concern.
But
what's
what's
overall
just
what
are
your
thoughts
about
our
fire
code
and
how
can
we
continue
to
work
together
to
make
sure
that
we
have
the
best
best
system
possible
so.
B
B
I
can't
speak
to
the
overall
conditions
in
all
of
the
city
buildings,
but
as
we
as
we
sort
of
renovate
buildings
or
build
new
buildings,
we're
you
know,
sort
of
just
naturally
required
to
meet
all
fire
codes
and
and
building
codes
and
oftentimes
will
will
be
able
to
work
with
the
fire
department
or
with
the
inspectional
Services
Department,
to
sort
of
answer,
questions
and
try
to
make
sure
that
we
are
doing
the
best
job
possible
for
life,
safety
and
health,
healthy
environments
and
our
buildings.
When.
E
When
we
just
as
a
brief
follow-up,
but
when
we
invest
funding
into
a
city
building,
do
we
always
make
sure
that
the
fire
code
issues
are
addressed
as
part
of
the
funding
that
work
that's
going
into
a
particular
building?
You
know,
since
we're
we're
doing
the
funding.
Do
we
also
ensure
that
the
building
is
up
to
up
to
code
or
has
the
best
fire
safety
equipment?
We
can.
B
B
A
B
A
L
Ahead
a
question
and
picking
up
on
council
Flynn
on
the
Curley
recreational
son
of
the
Eretz,
obviously
the
most
heavily
visited,
thus
the
heavily
most
heavily
used
community
center
in
the
entire
city.
You
had
mentioned
that
it
was
moving
along
then
sort
of
hit
a
little
bit
of
a
wall
with
respect
to
sort
of
climate,
resiliency,
stuff,
I,
guess
so
what
it?
What
is
the
result
of
that
delay?
More
importantly,
what
additional
funds
will
be
coming
to
the
Curley
in
order
to
address
that?
L
One
of
the
concerns
that
community
has
is
that
there's
been
an
appropriation
made
that
goes
into
sort
of
the
bones
of
the
building.
If
you
will,
if
there's
gonna,
be
additional
cost
to
protect
it
out
front,
we're
gonna
need
to
know
them
in
advance,
so
we
could
add
to
those
funds.
So
I
want
to
get
your
thoughts
on
that,
so,
whatever
it's
gonna
cost
to
make.
There
was
a
delay,
whatever
the
costs
associated
with
that
delay.
That
needs
to
be
in
addition
to
what
was
already
promised
to
the
to
the
curve
community
and.
B
In
its
it's
unclear
what
the
impacts
of
the
solutions
to
protect
the
building
are
in
terms
of
monetarily
in
terms
of
the
design,
because
the
design
hasn't
really
progressed
enough
to
really
understand
the
the
costs.
So
our
strategy
is
to
sort
of
continue
with
the
design
of
the
project,
really
understand
the
solutions
and
there's
time
I
think
between
the
design
and
when
the
construction
needs
to
hit
to
come
back
to
the
council
next
year.
If
we
do
decide
that
we
need
it.
L
And
I
think
through
the
tree,
I
think
it
was
wise
to
you
know
to
take
a
pause
to
see
what,
if
any,
of
those
impacts,
because
the
last
thing
we
want
to
do
is
to
renovate
and
make
it
a
you
know,
renovate
the
facility,
then
only
to
see
that
thing
you
know
parts
of
the
building
up
on
7th
Street
so
totally
get
it.
But
I
want
to
make
sure
that
if
there's
gonna
be
additional
expenditures
made
that
we're
not
gonna
sort
of
nickel
and
dime
around
what's
already
there.
L
That
needs
to
be
a
completely
different,
different
distant
discussion
and
I.
Think
the
folks
down
there
again,
because
it's
the
most
heavily
visited
and
heavily
used
folks
down
there
been
waiting
a
long
time.
It's
been
neglected,
there's
been
patchwork
here
and
there
we've
we've
all
been
through
the
facility.
We
know
the
condition
of
the
facility,
but
that's
been
because
that's
been
years
of
neglect
quite
frankly,
or
patching
and
painting,
as
opposed
to
sort
of
a
major
overhaul.
L
So
you
now
have
a
front
row
seat
to
that,
and
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
as
we're
moving
forward,
I
think
it
was
more
than
appropriate
to
take
a
TV
timeout,
get
the
facts
around
the
resilience,
a
piece
of
it
now.
If
we
need
to
make
adjustments
to
that,
and
if
we
need
to
reach
out
into
secured
some
state
additional
state
and
federal
funds,
I
know
we
have
partners
that
are
willing
to
do
that
as
well.
So,
but
we'll
be
deferring
to
you
on
that.
L
M
You
very
much
I
think
carries
about
to
help
us
out
with
the
presentation
here
as
I
get
started.
I
just
wanted
to
to
just
thank
Trish
our
team
for
the
partnership
that
they've
had
with
us
over
the
last
few
years,
especially
really
strengthening
the
relationship
between
the
public
facilities
department
and
the
Boston
Public
Schools.
M
Since
that
time,
2015
and
beyond
we've
leveraged
over
115
million
in
math
school
building,
Authority
I
think
that's
a
testament
to
the
work
that
they've
done
to
partner
with
us
and
to
help
us
really
get
the
best
bang
for
the
taxpayer
dollar
and
to
help
improve
our
school
facilities.
We
came
to
the
council
in
late
February,
I,
think
on
the
25th
and
did
a
full
presentation
on
Bill
DPS.
M
The
purpose
of
these
categories
is
to
help
the
public
engage
in
terms
of
the
scope
of
the
projects,
how
big
each
of
the
projects
will
be
and
the
length
of
time
Tricia
earlier
in
her
presentation,
showed
you
that
for
major
capital
projects
they
have
longer
timelines
somewhere
between
two
and
five
years.
Two
and
six
years
that
aligns
to
the
categories
on
the
left.
The
new
builds
and
major
expansions.
You
guys
have
all
aware
of
the
Elliott
school
project,
which
is
a
major
expansion
and
the
Dearborn
project,
which
is
a
full
knockdown
rebuild.
M
These
are
the
types
of
projects
that
are
in
these
in
this
first
category,
around
new
expansions.
Those
are
long-term
projects,
they
have
a
significant
impact
on
the
learning
environment
and
the
communities,
but
they're
there
take
a
lot
more
planning
to
to
launch
over
the
10
years
we're
going
to
launch
five
new
projects
in
this
category
to
complement
the
four
projects
that
are
currently
in
the
pipeline
in
this
category.
The
second
bucket
is
the
real
estate
management.
M
This
is
the
acquisition
or
disposition
of
properties
so
that
we
can
start
thinking
about
our
portfolio
overall
and
be
proactive.
We're
partnering
with
the
Boston
planning
and
development
agency
to
do
more
tightly
coordinated,
work
to
understand
what
parcels
may
be
available.
What
properties
may
be
available
that
will
be
benefit
our
students
and
work
with
them
to
identify
projects
going
forward
the
third
categories
of
renovations
and
reconfigurations.
This
is
how
we
think
about
using
our
existing
building
stock,
better
and
upgrading
our
facilities
when
we
work
in
this
category.
M
The
most
notable
project
in
this
category
that
we've
started
is
the
McCormack
we've
announced
at
the
end
of
the
next
school
year
that
the
the
school
facility
will
close,
that
we
are
working
right
now
to
identify
a
partnership
and
then
we're
going
to
re,
do
a
project
to
upgrade
the
facilities
and
open
a
712
high
school
in
that
facility
partnering
with
the
existing
McCormack
community.
So
that's
there.
This
category
there
are
six
existing
standalone
middle
schools.
That
will
be
the
priority
for
this
category
over
the
next
ten
years.
M
So
the
left
side
of
this
slide
are
really
the
projects
that
are
few
and
far
between,
but
have
a
significant
impact
on
the
communities,
as
I
said,
we're
anticipating
12
projects
in
these
categories
of
the
next
ten
years,
so
you'll
hear
about
updates
on
an
annual
basis,
the
right
side
of
the
category,
the
right
side
of
the
slide.
These
two
categories
are
those
things
that
every
school
can
expect
over
the
bill
BPS
plan.
The
first
is
the
district-wide
initiatives
and
investments.
M
These
are
our
efforts
to
upgrade
and
improve
the
educational
safety
and
wellness
environments
for
all
of
our
schools,
where
we're
doing
things
like
upgrading
security,
improvements,
locks
and
security
cameras.
The
my
way
cafe,
kitchen
upgrades
to
provide
better
healthy
meals,
is
in
this
category
and
then
our
technology
infrastructure
constant
refresh
schedules.
So
this
is
our
opportunity
to
really
make
our
schools
better
learning
environments
for
our
students
in
the
final
category
of
the
capital,
repairs
and
maintenance.
This
is
the
bricks
and
mortar
the
roof.
M
Spoilers
windows
masonry
the
projects
that
are
less
exciting
but
necessary
for
maintaining
our
buildings
and
make
sure
that
we
have
high
quality
buildings
in
the
future
next
year.
The
capital
plan
calls
for
us
nearly
seventy
million
dollar
investment
in
the
boston
public
school
facilities
through
the
capital
plan.
We're
also
leveraging
a
twenty
million
dollars
in
MSBA
funding
to
bring
the
total
spending
to
90
million
dollars
for
next
year,
and
this
is
the
breakdown
by
those
five
categories
that
I
just
mentioned:
there's
30
million
dollars
that
will
be
going
into
the
existing
new,
builds
and
expansions.
M
You
see
the
list
there
for
the
Boston
Arts
Academy,
Elliot
and
Carter
school,
which
we've
already
talked
a
little
bit
about
today.
There's
a
hundred
K
in
the
plans
for
the
design
of
the
McCormack
building.
This
is
over
the
next
year,
while
it's
still
the
McCormack
is
still
operating
as
a
middle
school.
We
will
be
working
with
PFT
and
with
the
designers
to
start
imagining.
What
upgrades
to
the
facility
need
to
be
done?
I
also
want
to
note
that
in
the
capital
plan,
not
in
any
specific
bucket
is
reserved
for
a
future
project.
M
So
that's
two
million
to
deal
with
projects
that
come
may
come
up
over
the
next
year
or
may
supplement
any
existing
project.
As
we
get
further
into
say,
the
design
of
the
McCormack
building
in
terms
of
district-wide
initiatives
and
investments,
there's
a
planned
15
million
dollar
investment,
including
the
MyWay,
cafe,
kitchen
phase
two
and
the
last
category-
is
22
million
in
prepares.
This
is
where
we're
also
leveraging
a
lot
of
MSBA
dollars
to
continue
to
do
more
roofs,
boilers
and
windows
projects
through
the
accelerator
repair
program
for
the
MSBA.
M
The
last
thing
I'll
know
before
I
turn
it
over
to
questions
to
the
council.
Is
we
try
and
look
to
balance
our
investments
across
each
of
the
categories
in
a
way
that
both
advances,
our
vision
for
what
the
boss,
because
public
schools
can
become
through
major
projects
like
the
Carter
school
and
district,
wide
initiatives
that
upgrade
the
facilities
and
also
investing
in
the
capital,
repairs
that
are
necessary
to
maintain
the
current
quality
of
our
buildings?
And
so
this
just
shows
the
the
relative
balance
across
the
projects
with
no
planned
investments.
M
A
N
One
of
the
councillors
questions
before
was
related
to
you
know
how
are
making
decisions
on
which
schools
are
getting
them
and
it's
all
based
on
needing
particular
three
different
factors:
the
opportunity
index
score
of
a
neighborhood,
which
is
the
aggregate
of
the
opportunity
neck
score
for
all
the
schools
within
the
neighborhood,
the
percentage
of
students
who
are
economically
disadvantaged
in
the
schools
in
that
neighborhood
and
the
lunch
participation
rates
in
that
neighborhood
we're
very
close
to
finalizing
what
we
hope
to
be
the
rollout
plan,
not
only
for
the
1920
school
year,
but
for
the
years
following
that,
and
we
can
talk
to
you
about
that-
and
the
next
couple
in
the
next
few
days
is
we
try
to
finalize
that
is
the.
A
N
Can't
speak
to
whether
the
Shah
Family
Foundation
is
involved
with
the
gardener
in
one
shape
in
any
way,
shape
or
form.
They're
they're
certainly
involved
with
us,
as
we
work
through
the
rollout
for
Maile
cafe,
I've
been
in
touch
with
principal
Hermann
from
the
Gardner
School.
As
recently
as
we
can
half
ago
regarding
all
this
and
I
feel
like
they're
in
good
footing
to
again
finalize
the
plan
going
forward
for
all
schools
is.
A
N
Secondly,
again
we're
going
neighborhood
by
neighborhood
for
a
couple
different
reasons:
number
one.
This
is
a
new
approach
to
food
service
in
these
schools,
where
we
try
to
make
sure
that
there's
more
management
available
to
to
provide
support
to
the
food
service
workers
and
managers
who
are
rolling
out
the
new
model
at
schools.
Because
of
that,
we
try
to
go
neighborhood,
my
neighborhood,
so
that
there's
there's
more
of
that
same
practice
in
the
local
area.
N
So
there's
more
management,
support,
there's
more
sharing
of
practices
and
there's
less
of
you
know:
you've
got
a
one-off
school
three
neighborhoods
away
that
just
adopted
it
and
it
sort
of
fractures
the
model
that's
in
that
neighborhood,
if
that
makes
sense.
Secondly,
from
a
financial
perspective
and
finances
are
very
important
in
food
interest
and
services
that
Department
has
run
a
deficit
for
several
years.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
we
leverages
many
financial
efficiencies
as
we
can
and
when
you
were
working
neighborhood
by
neighborhood.
N
A
N
A
N
I'll,
do
my
best
to
answer
that
in
two
parts
number
one,
the
educational
experience
that
the
Jackson
man
should
look
no
different
over
the
next
6
to
12
months.
If
anything,
it
should
be
somewhat
improved,
more
facilities
perspective,
because
we
are
investing
about
seven
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
dollars
in
the
building
this
summer,
so
that
should
provide
a
somewhat
better
experience
in
the
building
next
year.
N
Other
than
that,
though,
the
experience
itself
over
the
next
six
to
12
months
won't
feel
much
different.
However,
there
will
be
work
with
the
community
and
certainly
within
our
team,
on
problem
solving
for
the
long
term
locations
for
both
the
Horace
Mann
School
for
the
deaf
and
hard
of
hearing,
as
well
as
the
Jackson
man
Keita
great
and.
A
C
And
thank
you
first
for
your
earlier
presentation
this
year
on,
builds
bps,
I.
Think
that
saves
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
the
questions
that
we'd
have
for
today.
I
want
to
go
back
to
the
my
way,
conversation
that
was
in
the
earlier
segment
and
I
know.
We
talked
about
the
five
million
dollars
for
FY
19,
with
two
million
coming
from
private.
Do
we
know
this
year
we're
budgeting
five?
Is
there
an
additional
do?
We
know
the
additional
dollar
amount
from
the
private
funding
for
next
school
year
or
for
next
fiscal
year.
C
N
C
Bp
acid
I
feel
like
a
little
bit
of
a
broken
record,
but
with
our
with
a
slide
with
like
the
five
categories
of
funding
sort
of
the
longer-term
and
the
ongoing
work.
I
really
do
feel
that
the
ongoing
work
is
what
shouldn't
come
out
of
build
bps
that
should
come
out
of
different
capital
spending
and
really
take
that
billion
dollar.
Our
investment
made
by
the
administration
by
the
mayor
to
invest
in
our
schools.
So
it's
it's
not
a
question.
It's
simply
a
comment
that
I'll
continue.
C
D
D
N
N
Like
Flint
Michigan
in
New,
York
City
were
in
the
news
quite
a
bit.
We
were
as
well,
although
for
a
much
much
much
lesser
extent
than
those
other
cities.
Well,
the
district
received
an
award
last
year
for
its
work
on
round
lead
and
water.
We
do
not
have
any
schools
right
now,
providing
unsafe,
unclean
water
for
students.
N
D
D
We
found
out
the
land
ultimately
is
with
BPS
as
care
or
take.
You
know
under
your
purview,
and
so
I
had
hoped
and
that
the
parents
had
actually
rally
to
raise
the
money
to
to
actually
build
a
temporary,
at
least
permanent.
By
that
I
mean
an
actual
structure
on
the
land
to
continue
the
very
successful
tennis
program
named
after
the
family,
a
good
family,
a
great
family
in
Charlestown.
So
they
raised
the
money
we
were
excited.
We
thought
we
would
get
some
form
of
lease.
D
N
D
What
I
think
is
it
a
perfect
examples
when
bill
PS
wants
to
invest
or
excuse
me,
bps
wants
to
invest
in
a
school,
puts
the
resources
in
that
school.
It
creates
an
amazing
school.
That's
what
the
elliott
school
is
absolutely
and
it
attracts
students.
It
attracts
parents,
it
makes
it
highly
competitive.
In
this
case,
it's
made
it
highly
competitive.
The
income,
the
average
income
of
the
families
went
up
and
so
did
and
their
miss
school
became
wider.
D
My
concern
is
that
this
is
exact
example.
When
you
contrast
of
what's
happening
at
East
Boston
high
school.
Where
be
where
it
seems
very
clear
on
paper,
BPS
is
decided.
This
is
school,
they
will
not
be
investing
in.
It
drives
displacement
of
the
schools,
because,
when
I
see
my
school,
my
local
high
school
get
getting
cut.
1.2
million
dollars
I
see
that
that's
bps,
not
investing
in
that
school
I'm,
not
sending
my
kid
to
that
school
I'll
go
to
the
one
of
one
of
the
competing
charter.
D
Schools
in
district
I
will
I
will
not
be
going.
I
will
not
attract
more
parents,
more
families,
more
excitement
about
a
school
when
BPS
s
budgets
are
cut
so
extreme
and
I
guess
I'm
just
so
disappointed
when
I
see
it
can
happen
when
the
money
goes
to
an
institution.
It's
very
clear
that
institution
will
shine.
D
Its
brightest
bps
can
make
great
schools,
but
when
I
see
bps
pull
away
money
from
a
local
school
I,
I'm
I'm
just
prepared
and
then
using
the
fact
that
the
populations
going
down
it
will
only
perpetuate
continual
population
decline,
and
so
my
frustration
is
then
bps
has
this
bill
bps.
Let's
have
these
middle
schools
stand
alone.
Middle
schools
be
decreased.
You
have
the
Edwards
middle
school
80%
of
those
kids
that
go
there
come
from
East
Boston
are
bused
in
there
from
East
Boston
over
to
Charlestown.
D
D
Boston
and/or
allow
for
the
high
school
to
become
seven
to
twelve
to
allow
then
for
us
to
save
money
on
busing
and
then
also
to
make
up
for
the
fact
that
we
don't
have
a
middle
school
in
East,
Boston
and
hopefully
to
save
our
population
but
I'm,
seeing
a
tale
of
extremities
and
I.
Think
it's
being
exasperated
by
bps
and
I.
Think
it's
irresponsible
in
the
plan
about
PBS.
M
So
I'm
gonna
try
and
take
on
a
few
of
the
different
parts
of
that.
I
would
say
you
know:
East
Boston,
High
School
is
experiencing
significant
enrollment
decline,
both
because
it
was
really
almost
overcrowded
at
the
point
when
you
know
four
or
five
years
ago,
when
they
were
almost
fifteen
hundred
students
in
the
high
school
enrollment
has
continued
to
decline,
not
because
of
a
lack
of
popularity,
but
because
we're
just
seeing
a
change
in
the
demographic
around
school
age
population
for
high
schools-
and
this
is
a
regional
trend.
M
It's
a
both
in
terms
of
the
Greater
Boston
area
and
in
terms
of
really
New
England
in
general
that
we're
seeing
larger
cohorts
of
high-school
students
are,
in
their
juniors
senior
year,
graduating
from
our
high
schools
and
they're
being
replaced
by
smaller
cohorts.
So
that's
what
we
see
in
East
Boston
with
East
Boston
high
school
when
we
started
the
conversation
around
reconfiguration
it.
It
was
a
very.
There
was
a
lot
of
momentum,
both
internally
and
externally,
to
start
with
the
Edwards
and
to
think
about
potentially
creating
a
712
in
East
Boston.
M
When
that
first
conversation
started,
there
were
no
possibilities.
There
were
too
many
kids
in
the
high
school
and
all
of
the
elementary
schools
were
really
too
small
to
add
a
sixth
grade.
As
you
mentioned,
we've
had
some
changes
in
enrollment
over
there.
We've
had
some
change
in
program
over
there.
It
does
look
like
that.
There's
now
a
conversation
that
we
can
start
having
with
the
community.
It
obviously
can't
happen
very
quickly
because
we
need
to
have
a
conversation
with
the
Edwards
community.
We
need
to
have
a
conversation
with
the
Charlestown
community.
M
We
need
to
have
a
conversation
with
many
schools
in
East
Boston
we've
had
multiple
conversations
with
the
school
leaders
in
East
Boston.
They
have
exhibited
a
lot
of
leadership
around
this
idea
of
reconfiguration
coming
together
and
having
joint
problem
solving
and
joint
design
conversations
around
their
schools.
So
we're
very
excited
and
optimistic
around
that
conversation
for
the
k-6
expansion,
which
there
has
been
a
lot
of
pent-up
demand
in
the
district
to
expand
to
a
sixth
grade
to
our
existing
K
to
five
elementary
schools.
We
do
have
an
open
process.
M
That's
happening
now
for
the
first
round
of
K
to
six
expansions
happening
in
the
fall
of
2020
I.
Believe
all
of
the
K
to
fives
in
East
Boston
have
applied
we're
looking
at
as
a
potential
neighborhood
conversation
rather
than
have
potentially
one
or
two
of
the
schools
go.
Is
this
an
opportunity
for
us
to
really
accelerate
the
conversation?
I
do
think
the
Elliott
is
an
example
of
a
place
where
investments
in
schools
can
lead
to
greater
demand.
We,
you
know.
D
M
When
we
look
across
we're
excited
about
investing
in
our
schools
to
be
able
to
provide
the
type
of
facilities
that
all
parents
expect,
you
know
as
a
parent
walking
into
a
school,
you
know
it's
it's
hard,
not
to
notice
some
of
our
older
buildings,
which
have
a
great
deal
of
charm,
just
really
need
a
lot
of
work
to
be
the
21st
century.
Learning
environments
that
we
should
all
be
able
to
expect.
I.
M
Think
the
growth
in
the
Eliot
and
demand
is
both
a
conversation
around
investment
in
facilities,
but
also
in
a
success
in
a
school
leader
who
has
come
in
and
turned
the
school
around
and
has
attracted
more
families
and
in
weighted
student
funding,
which
we'll
talk
about
here
again
tomorrow
and
in
the
coming
weeks
that
are
our
budget
hearings.
What
we
wanted
to
do
was
make
sure
that
our
funding
is
responsive
to
number
of
students
who
are
being
served
and
the
type
of
students
who
are
being
served
in
each
of
the
schools.
M
So
councillor
Flaherty
already
asked
a
question
around
when
the
new
facility
opens,
will
we
be
seeing
an
expanded
enrollment
part
of
the
expansion?
Is
the
grades
growing
up
that
we've
already
seen
that
will
be
hitting
six
seventh
and
eighth
grade
larger
cohorts
moving
through,
but
we
also
are
starting
the
conversation
with
the
principal
around
expanding
access
for
students
with
disabilities.
Now
that
they
are
one
of
our
larger
K
to
eight
schools,
we
wouldn't
be
looking
to
expand
them
much
beyond
thing
next
year,
they're
projected
to
be
about
730
students
and
then
on.
M
M
They
have
had
to
make
a
number
I'll
have
to
look,
and
we
will
certainly
come
prepared
to
talk
about
East
Boston,
more
specifically
in
our
hearing
later
this
week,
and
part
of
the
adjustments
are
changes
to
schools
that
are
not
things
that
you.
You
know.
It's
always
felt
when
you,
when
you
lose
teachers,
but
it's
not
changing
the
academic
experience
of
the
students
instead
of
needing
six
high
school
history
teachers.
M
Maybe
you
only
need
four,
because
you've
had
a
change
in
the
number
of
students
you
need
to
serve
that's
different
from
a
change
where
you're
no
longer
a
lap,
you
no
longer
able
to
offer
multiple
languages.
Are
you
not
able
to
offer
additional
guidance
support
and
the
discretionary
dollars
we've
done?
Additional
investments
in
our
cap
in
our
operating
budget
and
now
I've
I'm,
getting
a
little
bit
far
afield
from
this
topic.
But
we've
done
a
lot
to
try
and
stabilize
the
experience
for
students
with
declining
enrollment
there's
additional
soft
landings.
M
Well,
we
saw
with
significant
disparities
between
schools,
with
enrollment,
high
enrollment
and
high
budgets
and
schools
with
low
enrollments
and
high
budgets
that
we
needed
to
adjust
and
then
often
is
much
more
difficult
when
we're
not
doing
it
on
an
annual
basis,
because
all
of
a
sudden
they'll
hit
a
year
where,
instead
of
making
you
know
East
Boston,
is
of
course
much
more
extreme
this
year.
But
many
schools
are
adjusting
down
to
the
right
size
for
the
enrollment.
They
have
so
I
know
that
you've
touched
upon
a
really
big
topic.
A
N
Ok,
counselor
I
would
just
add
just
a
clarification.
The
the
budget
change
count
spread
was
that
you're
referring
to
is
is
on
the
operating
budget
and
the
school
budget.
What
we're
talking
about
here
today,
as
you
know,
you
know,
as
the
capital
budget
through
bill
BPS,
we
have
invested
in
East,
Boston
High
School
in
recent
years,
through
the
capital
budget.
The
school
received
new
windows
a
couple
years
ago,
which
is
more
than
a
five
million
dollar
project.
In
addition
to
that,
they
were
part
of
the
first
roll
out
of
my
away.
N
Cafe,
I'm
not
looking
to
pat
ourselves
in
the
back,
because
it's
an
old
building
that
needs
that
continues
to
need
love,
just
like
a
number
of
our
buildings
across
the
school
district
that
we're
looking
to
monitor
on
a
regular
basis.
You
know
week
in
and
week
out
where,
in
terms
of
where
we
need
to
make
our
capital
investments,
you.
D
Only
brought
this
up
also
in
terms
of
the
configuration
is
because
the
standalone
middle
school
is
part
of
or
getting
rid
of
them
as
part
of
build
PBS.
The
Edwards
is
what
I'm
talking
about
East
Boston
students
go
there.
That
was
the
connection
I
felt
in
terms
of
you
could
have
kept
the
East
Boston
kids
or
you
can
keep
them
in
East
Boston,
going
to
East
Boston
high
school,
maybe
maintain
that
population.
So
we
don't
lose
1.2
million
dollars.
Yeah.
N
No,
it's
it's
certainly
fair
for
you
to
bring
it
up
I'm
only
just
providing
that
clarification
and
they'd
alluded
to
the
issue
that
we
have
at
hand
that
that
you
first
spelled
out
about
the
Edwards
middle
school
and
the
fact
that
many
of
the
students
are
coming
from
East
Boston.
That
continues
to
be
one
of
our
priority
conversations
within
bill
BPS,
so
that
we
can
solve
for
that
great.
E
N
Actually,
a
five
million
dollar
project-
that's
being
proposed
right
now
for
the
capital
plan
for
the
Blackstone
that
is
I,
don't
know
if
that's
specifically
what
you're
referring
to.
But
what
we're
looking
to
do
is
conduct
a
study
starting
this
summer
through
the
support
of
the
public
facilities
department,
to
understand
what
it
will
take
to
undertake
a
project
at
the
Blackstone
to
close
off
all
of
the
classrooms
within
the
building.
That
is
a
tentative
right
now.
It's
part
of
the
budget
submission,
but
we're
looking
to
begin
that
work
through
the
design
process
in
FY.
E
And
the
other
questions
I
had
I,
know
you're
doing
some
work
at
the
Condon
on
electrical
improvements.
Do
you
have
any
the
Condon
is
in
middle
of
of
public
housing
in
West
Broadway
Blackstone
--is
is
between
Villa
Victoria
and
Cathedral
I,
really
like
when
BPS
does
work
on
schools
that
are
located
right
near
public
housing
developments
or
in
public
housing
developments,
the
Blackstone,
the
Condon,
also
the
Perkins
school
is
not
only
located
at
Old
Colony,
but
it's
it's
also
located
across
the
street
from
Miriam
and
McCormick.
E
N
Speak
to
that
right
now,
counselor
I
can
talk
to
you
offline
I,
don't
know
if
there's
any
specific
capital
project
on
tap
for
the
Perkins.
To
my
knowledge,
there
isn't,
aside
from
the
district,
wide
initiatives
that
will
you
know
continuing
to
both
continue
to
execute
across
the
city.
Thank
you.
Yeah,
as
you
know,
maintain
our
buildings
through
our
operating
budget
as
well.
So
there's
a
number
of
building
repairs
and
fixes
that
take
shape
across
the
district
that
don't
show
up
in
the
capital
plan.
Okay,.
M
And
because
the
Perkins
is
one
of
the
schools
that
feeds
currently
into
the
McCormick's,
they
are
part
of
that
conversation
around
K
to
six
expansion,
so
the
Perkins,
the
Tyne
in
each
of
them,
will
be
adding
a
sixth
grade
in
the
fall
of
2020.
That's
part
of
the
reconfiguration
of
the
McCormack
middle
school.
N
B
E
B
F
E
Yeah
I
know
you
are
making
improvements
such
as
iock,
winsy
and
I
do
appreciate
the
good
work
that
that
is
being
done
there.
So
thank
you.
I
was
just
wondering
whether
it's
to
Trisha
John,
but
do
you
think
any
any
way
going
forward
over
the
next
budget
cycle
or
down
the
road?
Are
we
able
to
consider
schools,
as
I
mentioned
earlier,
that
are
located
in
public
housing
developments?
E
N
Can't
speak
to
whether
there's
any
type
of
program
that
would
be
beneficial,
but
certainly
that's
something
that
we
could
add
in
terms
of
how
we,
how
we
factor
in
all
the
different
variables
that
go
on
within
schools.
Certainly,
student
safety
is
our
foremost
concern
when
making
capital
investment
proposals
and
then
beyond
that,
it's
clearly
the
condition
of
the
building
and
those
factors
that
drive
certain
decision-making,
but
all
things
being
equal.
If
there's
a
way
for
us
to
weave
in
some,
you
know
contemplation
around
public
housing
nearby.
E
Know
the
reason
I
bring
that
up
is
not
only
is
at
the
school,
but
the
the
playground
during
the
summertime
that
kids
really
use,
and
you
want
to
have
the
best
playground
that
we
possibly
can
get
for
our
residents
and
the
in
our
developments.
For
so
that's
just
something
maybe
going
forward.
We
can.
We
can
continue
to
talk
about.
H
M
So
we're
in
the
process,
we
there's
a
couple
of
public
meetings
that
are
happening
or
engagements
with
the
communities
that
are
happening
this
week,
getting
to
a
place
where
we're
going
to
finalize
who
the
partner
is
going
to
be
moving
forward,
the
size
of
the
712
that
ends
at
the
site
hasn't
there
a
number
of
factors
that
go
into
it.
How
many
kids
are
there
now
I
believe
the
enrollment
at
the
McCormack
I
actually
have
this
in
front
of
me
hold
on
one
sec.
M
We
announced
that
public
sort
of
RFP
for
four
schools
to
put
in
their
hat.
We
said
we're
looking
for
the
712
to
be
in
the
range
of
800
to
a
thousand
students,
and
that
will
really
depend
on
the
mix
of
programming
that
happens
at
the
school
and
the.
The
simplest
example
is,
if
there's
a
classroom
that
we're
using
for
just
general
education
students,
it
has
a
capacity
of
up
to
30
kids
in
high
school
31
students.
If
it's
a
special
education
classroom,
the
the
most
so
for
a
substantially
separate,
would
be
12.
M
M
I
think
the
combined
high
school
right
now,
if
you
just
put
all
the
programs
together,
would
be
something
like
six
hundred
and
fifty
students
and
me
for
cash
and
mcCormick,
and
then
the
other
school
is
the
Boston
community,
Leadership
Academy
BC
LA.
Currently,
in
Hyde
Park
that
combined
school
would
be
closer
to
about
700
750.
Now,
of
course,
the
two
schools
will
not
merge
in
that
sort
of
simplified
state
because
of
the
number
of
programs
that
are
both
at
the
high
schools
and
the
middle
schools.
M
We
need
to
think
about
not
over
concentrating
need
in
one
specific
high
school,
that's
part
of
the
design
process
and
the
conversations
arriving
to
the
community
this
week,
and
so
once
we
go
through
that
process
over
the
next
year,
we'll
be
going
through
a
design
process
with
the
the
the
sort
of
merged
school
community
to
be
thinking
about.
Are
we
what
upgrades
we're
going
to
be
doing
for
the
facilities?
What
do
they
need
to
have
in
the
school
in
terms
of
science
facilities
or
other
non
classroom?.
M
H
H
N
It's
about
620,
I,
believe-
and
you
know,
capacity
is-
is
a
funny
subject
right.
You
can
rive
a
capacity
in
a
number
of
different
ways.
If
it
were
say
650,
you
can
fill
650
very,
very
quickly
with
high
school.
That
has
an
awful
lot
of
special
education
programming
or
you
don't
even
fill
it
at
all
with
a
good-sized
high
school
that
has
very
little
special
education
programming.
N
So
that's
a
consideration
that
we're
going
to
have
to
meet
out
in
the
next
few
months,
as
we
number
one
choose
a
partner,
a
high-school
partner
to
link
up
with
the
McCormick's
and
number
to
work
with
PFD
and
their
contractors
to
do
a
design
process
for
us
to
best
as
ascertain
what
does
a
renovation
really,
what
kind
of
renovation
would
really
be
required
at
that
site?
Would
it
need
to
be
an
expansion,
or
do
we
actually
have
enough
space
on
site,
as
is.
M
All
of
the
current
buildings
that
are
involved
in
this
will
be
continued
to
be
used
as
school
buildings.
If
you
know,
I,
think
part
of
the
reason
that
we
have
not
laid
out
more
detail
into
the
out
years
of
the
bill.
Bps
plan
is
because
a
number
of
these
sort
of
moves
will
open
up
different
facilities
if
be
CLA
moves
out
of
Hyde
Park,
the
old
high
Park
High
School,
there's
currently
a
712
high
school
in
that
building
new
mission.
That
will
continue
to
operate
in
that
building,
we'll
be
thinking
about
ways
to
use.
H
M
That's
right
and
in
terms
of
the
Cleveland
building,
which
is
where
cash
is,
you
know,
because
cash
has
already
expressed
an
interest
in
becoming
a
712.
If
the
partnership
did
not
move
forward,
we
might
begin
the
conversation
with
other
middle
schools
around.
Is
that
the
right
path
forward
for
cash
to
have
a
712
in
that
facility?
You
know
I
think
we
also
are
looking
at
overall
in
that
part
of
Dorchester
there's
a
need
for
more
elementary
seats,
but
that's
also
a
good
location
for
high
school
with
such
ease
of
access
to
the
T.
M
The
old
Cleveland
literally
across
the
street,
is
the
redline
T
stop,
which
is
makes
it
incredibly
accessible
for
our
students,
so
it
will
likely
continue
to
operate
as
a
high
school.
But
again
once
we
have
that
once
we
make
that
first
decision,
then
we'll
again
engage
with
the
community
University.
N
Its
service
station,
the
one
thing
I,
would
add,
though,
to
Nate's
answer
is
that
we're
also
gonna
be
considering
the
use
of
spaces
swing
space
as
well,
so
it
could
be
that,
once
a
bit
of
once
the
building
is
opened
up
as
part
of
the
McCormick's
move,
we
might
be
moving
someone
in
on
a
long-term
basis.
It
may
also
be
that
it's
used
as
swing
space,
which
is
clearly
a
big
need
to
build.
N
J
M
M
Obviously
need
to
have
that
conversation
with
the
school
leader,
a
new
mission.
I,
think
that
is
an
incredibly
high
demand.
High
quality
school
there's,
certainly
enough
students
who
want
to
enroll
in
new
mission
that
expansion,
I,
think
is
a
possibility,
but
we
need
to
understand
you
know.
Part
of
part
of
the
programming
is
a
lot
of.
The
experience
will
work
that
she
does
and
the
the
school
does.
M
Scuse
me
referencing
headmaster,
Neil
Wilson,
but
you
know
I
think
so
we
just
want
to
make
sure
that
whenever
we
do
expand
that
we
continue
to
expand
quality,
we
don't
just
assume
that
we
can
just
add
more
students
in
the
and
the
same
high
quality
program
will
continue.
So
we
just
we
want
to
be
thoughtful
about
it,
but
it
is
certainly
an
appealing
prospect.
Okay
and.
N
Rogers
school,
the
school
community
just
approved
a
vote
of
surplus
in
the
Rogers
school
building.
The
topic
of
surplus
thing
came
up
in
the
PFD
capital
budget.
Conversation
related
to
non
VPS
projects
that
school
building
is
unfortunately,
so
far
gone,
that
it
would.
It
would
never
be
usable
as
a
school
again.
I
know
that
you
know
the
site
very,
very
well.
If
we
were
going
to
use
that
as
a
school
again,
we
have
to
tear
it
down
and
rebuild.
N
We
know
that
over
time
there
is
likely
to
be
a
need
to
solve
a
great
configuration
problem
in
Hyde
Park,
but
we're
not
there
yet,
and
we
have
other
more
urgent
needs
pushing
against
the
school
district
right
now
in
other
neighborhoods.
So
we
thought
it
best
to
surplus
that
property
right
now
and
working
very
closely
with
the
city
of
Boston,
with
the
premise
of
when
we
do
need
to
solve
the
Hyde
Park
problem
over
time
that
we
are
allowed
to
explore
parcels
that
might
be
available
or
work
with
the
city
to
acquire
property.
J
M
I
know
HCC
has
interest
you're
talking
about
the
712
expansion
that
I
know.
The
community
has
certainly
expressed
interest.
We
have
not
continued
on
the
conversations
around
additional
712
expansions
outside
of
middle-school
reconfigurations,
one
of
the
challenges
that
happened
when
we
expanded
new
mission,
a
sort
of
a
standalone
school
to
go
712
without
taking
additional
capacity
offline.
Is
we
found
that
it
really
affected
a
number
of
the
k2
eights
in
the
area,
the
Roosevelt
being
one
of
the
schools
that
was
sort
of
most
impacted?
M
So
when
we
approve
of
712
expansions,
we
want
to
do
so
when
we're
either
taking
Middle
School
capacity
offline
or
we're
doing
it
in
partnership
with
potentially
a
K
to
8.
Moving
to
K
to
6
I
know
that
there
are
a
number
of
k2
eights
in
the
area
that
are
interested
in
partnering
with
ACC
because
of
the
full
inclusion
model
that
goes
forward,
but
we,
those
are
all
conversations
that
are
on
hold.
M
J
My
last
question
is
more
personnel
attrition
mentioned
the
six
PM's
that
were
still
available.
We
filling
those
spots
or
are
we
I
mean
you
guys
are
I,
commend
you
for
doing
all
the
work
with
six
empty
spots.
--Is
there's
a
lot,
but
I
mean
the
do
more,
with
less
can
only
go
so
far
before
somebody
gets
you
know
caught
somebody
misses
something.
Thankfully,.
B
B
With
with
project,
managers
is
actually
finding
finding
folks
who
meet
the
qualifications
that
we
need.
These
are
very
complex
projects
and
we
need
we
can't
sort
of
take
people
who
don't
have
experience
and
with
the
booming
construction
economy.
It's
it's
pretty
challenging
to
to
attract
candidates
all
consistently
mark.
A
K
Want
to
focus
on
Madison
so,
as
I'm
sure
you
know,
councillor
sabi
George,
councillor,
Wu
and
I
have
been
looking
into
Madison
and
trying
to
support
Madison
over
the
last
year
and
a
half,
and
each
of
us
have
raised
concerns
about
Madison
not
being
included
in
build
BPS.
I
see
here
on,
I'm
not
sure
which
slide
it
is,
but
there
are
some
investments
ongoing
projects
around
locker-room
six
million.
That's.
K
That's
how
I
use
my
my
and
then
another
6
million
on
electrical
improvements?
Yes,
so
let
me
just
ask
this
question:
so
there
was
a
floor
for
their
gym.
That
was
donated
free
of
charge
from
one
of
our
amazing
championship,
sports
teams
that
is
now
ruined
because
of
a
leak
and
from
what
I
understand
you
know
calls
were
made.
So
just
help
me
understand
what
happens
when
there's
an
active
leak
in
a
building
and
things
have
to
be
repaired
so
that
we're
not
wasting
this
wonderful
investment.
K
That
was
a
gift
that
now
has
to
be
replaced,
and
now
the
city
is
going
to
have
to
replace
the
floor
and
pay
for
it,
because
we
let
the
free
gift
go
to
waste,
how
what
happens
when
someone's
calling
around
needing
the
roof
repaired
or
whatever
happened
in
this
situation
and
then
I
have
a
similar
story
with
a
brand
new
playground,
outdoor
classroom
for
another
school.
In
my
district
that
now
just
looks
overrun
so
I
don't
know
if
that's
the
school's
responsibility
to
take
care
of
it.
If
that's
central,
what
kind
of
upkeep
is
happening?
N
I
can't
say
for
the
madison
park
O'bryant
complex,
building
number
four:
they
are
scheduled
to
get
a
new
roof
through
the
capital
plan.
That
process
has
already
begun
but,
as
was
mentioned
earlier,
related
to
the
roof
for
the
Quincy
elementary
school,
it's
a
lengthy
process.
It's
a
it's
a
long
project
between
both
design
and
construction
for
our
new
roof.
N
So
to
answer
your
media
question:
well,
what
happens
when
there
is
a
leak,
so
either
the
school
will
submit
a
work
order
or
they'll
reach
out
directly
to
our
facilities
team
and
that
facilities
team
will
dispatch
staff
who
work
in
the
building
repairs
unit
within
facilities
so
that
they
can
get
out
to
try
to
address
these
concerns
through
contracts
that
we
have
that
happens
on
a
regular
basis.
I
know
that
there's
been
some
rain
over
the
weekend.
There's
gonna
continue
to
be
some
rain.
N
This
week
we
will
likely
be
dispatching
teams
from
our
facility
staff
to
go
out
to
schools
where
leaks
are
reported.
We
then
use
operating
budget
funds
to
be
able
to
patch
those
roofs
as
much
as
we
can
as
quickly
as
we
can.
It
seems
to
be
the
case
with
building
number
four
at
the
madison
park,
complex
that
the
level
of
that
has
gotten
beyond
what
we
can
do
with
temporary
repairs.
K
K
N
K
That's
a
great
segue
to
my
next
question,
so
one
of
the
things
that
has
come
up
in
our
year-and-a-half
long
discussion
with
the
Madison
school
community
is
the
need
for
just
a
new
building
overall,
and
you
know,
one
concern
is
that
Madison
is
such
a
specialty
school?
There's,
not
really.
You
know,
swing
space
available
at
another
school
in
terms
of
using
the
existing
space
for
swing
space,
because
the
number
of
students
there's
a
lot
of
extra
space
in
that
building.
K
Do
you
think
it's
possible
to
use
the
existing
building
as
swing
space
moving
students
from
one
side
of
the
building
to
the
other
side
of
the
building
during
some
sort
of
construction
phase?
That
would
really
improve
the
building
overall
in
terms
of
really
making
it
a
state
of
the
art
building
or
do
you
think
it
just
has
to
be
kind
of
torn
down
and
built
back
up
or
a
whole
new
location
has
to
be
found.
I.
N
He
needs
that
other
schools
don't
offer,
and
it
could
be
that
when
you're
looking
to
rebuild
those
particular
components
within
their
complex
right
now
that
you
then
can't
offer
the
programming
that
takes
place
within
those
components,
it's
it's
it's
hard
to
say
you've.
You
spelled
out
three
different
options:
I,
don't
know
which
of
those
options
we
would
have
to
pursue.
If
we're
going
to
undertake
a
new
building
for
that
school.
N
It's
a
couple
different
conversations,
counselor
number
one,
as
you
spell
out,
you
know,
the
school
is
not
referenced
in
the
building
PS
report,
you
know
more
than
I'd
say
a
hundred
in
20
of
our
buildings
are
mentioned
by
name
in
that
report.
We
have
made
a
series
of
investments
there,
including
I,
believe
more
than
20
million
dollars
worth
of
investments
over
a
five
year
period
within
the
capital
budget.
If
there's
a
conversation
to
be
had
regarding
a
whole
new
building
for
that
school,
that's
one
conversation
with
one
group
of
stakeholders.
N
You
know
folks
within
bps,
certainly
within
the
Madison
Park
community
would
be
part
of
that
conversation
and
then,
if
in
that
decision
tree,
it's
decided
that
yes,
a
new
building
is
going
to
be
what's
needed
or
something
to
that
effect
and
I.
Think
it's
a
separate
conversation
as
to
okay.
Now,
which
of
these
three
options
do
we
need
to
pursue?
Thank.
D
N
Modular
will
be
coming
online,
this
upcoming
school
year,
so
the
work
will
take
place
this
summer,
allowing
the
school
to
have
more
than
enough
space
for
that
community.
The
cost
of
right
now
is,
first
of
all,
when
you're,
when
you're
putting
in
a
modular
it's
a
lease
arrangement.
We
believe
that
that
yearly
cost
is
going
to
be
about
two
hundred
and
thirty
thousand
dollars,
I
believe
over
the
next
couple
years.
D
A
N
N
D
N
And
it's
it's
absolutely
fair
to
end
up
back
at
the
edwards
because,
as
has
been
reported
before,
one
of
the
main
principles
or
stepping
stones
to
our
work
with
bill,
BPS
revolves
around
the
middle
schools
and
those
middle
schools
then
provide
they
almost
act
as
pivot
points
within
neighborhoods.
And
so
we
do
understand
that
we
have
to
solve,
for
quote,
unquote
solve
for
the
the
Edwards
issue.
You
know
what
happens
to
the
Edwards
building.
It
is
very,
very
close
to
the
Warren
Prescott.
It
could
be
part
of
a
conversation
related
to
the
warm
Prescott
expansion.
N
It
might
not.
That's
certainly
part
of
the
conversation
related
to
East
Boston
as
a
reference
before,
because,
as
you
rightly
pointed
out,
the
majority
of
the
students
there
come
from
East
Boston.
So
when
solving
for
that
particular
pivot
point
in
the
Edwards,
we're
also
solving
for
essentially
two
different
neighborhoods
Charlestown
and
East
Boston
right.
D
M
First
process
for
expanding
K
to
sixes
in
our
district
is
for
the
fall
of
2020.
We
opened
it
up
for
schools
to
apply
if
they
felt
like
they
had
met
a
certain
set
of
criteria.
We're
now
evaluating
the
there
are
three.
There
are
fourteen
schools
that
applied,
including
the
schools
in
East
Boston
in
in
these
situations.
M
What
we,
what
we
look
to
do
is
evaluate
potential
pilot
so
that
we
can
learn
from
the
expansion
of
K
to
six
and
its
effect
on
enrollment
patterns,
and
we
wouldn't
normally
be
thinking
about
multiple
schools
in
the
same
neighborhood,
because
that
would
basically
lead
to
it
too
facto
configuration
of
whatever
middle
school.
They
currently
feed.
M
We
need
to
give
people
the
opportunity
to
voice
their
opinions
and
future,
and
you
know
I,
don't
want
to
sort
of
make
it
sound
like
we're
sort
of
dismissive
of
the
edwards
community
as
a
school
community,
because
you
know
that
is
a
school
that
needs
to
their
voice
needs
to
be
heard
in
this
process
in
terms
of
what
their
future
is
going
to
be
and
who
they're,
where,
where
the
staff
will
go,
where
the
students
will
enroll
and
where
their
programs
will
go.
So
it's
it's.
M
D
D
To
go
on,
I
mean
honestly
and
then
just
a
just
a
fill
in
in
terms
of
the
conversation
and
community
outreach.
I
think
I
went
to
the
bps
meeting
at
five
o'clock
in
Charlestown,
5
p.m.
in
Charlestown
and
8
a.m.
in
East,
Boston
and
so
I'm
sure
you're
gonna
have
another
round
or
continue
those
rounds
of
community
conversations.
I
would
encourage
them
to
be
recorded.
Those
conversations
so
folks
who
can't
make
those
due
to
work,
could
actually
watch
the
conversations
later
and
also
maybe
putting
them
even
later.
For
folks,
the
8
a.m.
D
M
I
was
just
gonna
say
that
the
headmaster
of
East
Boston
every
time
he's
in
the
bowling
building,
stops
by
and
asks
me
when
he
can
go
seven
twelve.
So
there
are
many
advocates
for
East
Boston.
We
held
a
second
community
meeting
in
East
Boston
in
the
evening,
because
the
nine
or
8:00
a.m.
meeting
was
poorly
attended
and
for
the
McCormick's
conversations
the
monica's
team
has
started
to
record
those
presentations
and
post
them
so
that
people
who
can't
attend
can
watch
them
online.
I
think
that's
a
something
that
they're
working
for
I.
M
B
We
are
in
the
process
of
bidding
the
work
now
to
start
construction.
This
summer,
the
the
scope
of
work
will
include
replacing
the
HVAC
system
it'll
be
a
very
sort
of
high-tech
HVAC
system
appropriate
for
the
type
of
collection
that
they're
protecting
there.
There
are
also
spaces
for
storage
and
and
for
the
staff
to
work
on
the
on
the
collection.
There's
also
a
reading
room
that
we'll
be
working
on
as
well
as
some
sort
of
building
envelope
repairs
to
make
sure
that
that
this
space
is
protected,
go
forward.
E
B
I
know
that
there
is
some
conversation
around
finding
a
location
for
that
for
an
EMS
station
in
in
that
area.
I
can't
say
counselor
if
that
location
has
been
found.
I
know
that
there's
funding
available
when
there
is
a
site
to
be
considered
to
do
some
due
diligence
around
that
and
to
try
to
establish
the
needs
from
a
programmatic
standpoint,
so
that
we
could
do
fit
tests
and
whatnot.
But
right
now
they're
there.
There
is
an
active
work
that
facilities
is
involved
in
okay.
E
E
Do
I
do
want
to
say
thank
you
to
you
and
your
staff
and
to
Mayor
Walsh
on
the
great
work
you're
doing
on
plans
for
Long
Island
I
had
the
opportunity,
as
a
probation
officer
to
visit
Long
Island,
almost
weekly,
my
probation
is
were
there
and
that
facility
played
such
a
crucial
and
important
role
in
the
city
and
helping
people
on
their
on
their
rom
on
their
recovery
plans.
I
know,
counsel
Baker
has
been
also
been
a
strong,
strong
advocate
as
well.
E
What
can
the
public
do
on
on
that
issue
in
regards
to
providing
support
to
your
office
or
providing
support
to
the
mayor's
office,
or
is
there
any
recommendations
on
what
the
public
can
do?
They
always
ask
us:
what's
the
next
step
of
what
what
involvement
could
they
do,
but
any
any
advice
or
recommendations
so
I
would.
B
B
E
Thank
You,
Trish
and
I
do
know
that
chief
Maddy,
Martinez
and
Jen
Tracy
are
doing
great
work
on
on
this.
It's
it's.
It's
such
an
important
project
for
the
city
and
there
are
a
lot
of
great
dedicated
city
employees
that
are
really
working
hard
on
that
on
that
plan.
So
thank
you
and
that's
all.
I
have
counseling
Thank
You
council
Baker.
H
Just
around
the
Elliot
school,
what
is
the?
What
did
we
get
for
buildings
when
we
sold
174
north
till?
We
get
three
buildings
from
from
the
North
Bennett,
Street
School
or
two
buildings.
H
H
H
B
H
And
my
last
point
is
so
when
we
good
in
that
deal
with
the
North
Bennett
Street
School
I've
asked
this
question
every
year,
since
it's
happened
and
I
haven't
never
gotten
an
answer.
They
were
supposed
to
provide
scholarships
north
Bennett
Street
school.
That
would
go
back
to
Mike
Galvin
close
to
ten
years
ago.
So
if
anybody
could
maybe
put
Brian
on
that,
he
looks
like
he's
eager
over
there.
So
we'll
put
Brian
on
that.
One
and
I
could
just
harass
him.
H
E
Yeah
thank
thank
you
for
taking
my
final
question
and
I.
Guess
one
one
more
comment:
Dom,
do
you
have
a
status
of
what
the
current
situation
is
of
the
old
Abraham
Lincoln
building
in
the
Bay
Village
I
was
there
over
the
weekend
walking
around
and
talking
to
residents
of
the
Bay
Village,
and
they
just
asked
me:
if
I
could
you
know
get
a
little
bit
of
background
information
on
what
the
current
status
of
Abraham
Lincoln
building
is.
N
If
you
don't
mind,
counselor,
please
just
clarify
and
what
you
meant,
what
you
might
mean
by
status
as
a
building
in
terms
of
the
condition
of
the
bill,
yeah
sure
so
about
two
years
ago,
we
and
we
made
some
significant
investments
into
the
building.
You
know
plastering
some
walls,
scripting
some
ceilings,
repainting
ceilings,
repainting
hallways
shoring
up
some
security
features,
the
building.
To
my
knowledge,
the
building
is,
you
know
it
is
not
one
of
the
better
conditioned
buildings
within
the
school
district.
N
It
is
not
an
imminent
need
of
closure
or
anything
along
those
lines,
which
is
an
experience.
Unfortunately,
we've
we've
had
in
West
Roxbury
and
all
some
writin
of
late.
However,
we're
continuing
to
monitor
that
building,
while
also
working,
as
you
know,
with
Josiah
Quincy
Upper
School
on
a
long
term
plan
for
that
building
for
that
school
once
that
solution
is,
is
arrived
at
for
the
schools,
long
term
home
so
to
speak,
then
we'll
have
a
separate
conversation
or
separate
decision
to
make
about
what
happens
with
the
Lincoln
building
itself.
E
Okay,
thank
you
and
I
just
wanted
to
just
make
a
general
statement.
One
council
Baker's
comments.
I
my
uncle
also
worked
at
the
city
of
Boston,
printing,
Department
and
I
know
the
printing.
The
printers
in
the
city
did
a
tremendous
job.
A
lot
of
them
went
to
school
with
me
at
Don
Bosco
and
provided
an
excellent
service
to
the
residents
of
Boston.
So
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
to
council
a
baker
for
his
his
work,
but
also
to
the
the
other
printers
across
the
this
city
that
that
are
no
longer
working
there.
E
A
H
They
doing
good
work
down
there.
I
was
wondering
if
we
could.
You
had
just
mentioned
about
the
Abraham
Lincoln,
the
scraping,
the
painting.
That
seems
like
that.
There's
a
lot
of
that
sort
of
stuff
that
could
that
could
they
could
use
that
there
should
I
advocate
with
you
or
where
should
I,
stop
that
you.
