August 2022 Consortium of Cities
Topic: Behavioral and Mental Health
A
Find
the
agenda
and
put
that
paste
that
in
chat.
C
3Rd
2022
meeting
and
again
I'm
mark
the
lochian
boulder
county
commissioner,
appreciate
you
all
being
here
and
as
as
we
always
do,
want
to
really
give
a
shout
out
to
anybody
on
this
evening.
Who's
staff,
because
this
meeting
is
elected
officials
around
the
region
and
we
know
we're
on
call
the
time.
But
staff
is
not
and
should
not,
but
we
appreciate
you
being
here
and
participating
in
the
different
ways
that
you
are
this
evening.
C
So
with
that
we'll
get
the
agenda
put
in
the
chat
but
want
to
we'll
start
with
a
of
course
call
to
order
and
then
introductions
and
we'll
give
an
opportunity
as
we
go
through
the
evening.
If
folks
join
us,
we'll
give
them
an
opportunity
to
to
say
hello
and
introduce
themselves
as
well.
C
Our
meeting
talk
topic
this
evening
for
consortium
of
cities
is
behavioral
mental
health
and
for
those
of
you
who
haven't
participated
with
us
in
the
past,
or
maybe
not
for
a
little
while
I
began
leading
this
group
last
year
in
2021
and
really
was
trying
to
figure
out
how
we
could
do
working
groups
collective.
C
We
do
so
much
collaborative
work
around
the
county,
but
how
can
we
use
the
work
that
we're
all
doing
conversations
that
we're
having
community
issues,
constituent
concerns,
etc
and
really
come
together
and
and
provide
some
working
group
to
mentor
each
other
to
provide
resources
for
each
other,
and
certainly
for
those
of
us
who
are
in
larger
municipalities,
towns
or
counties
that
have
more
resources?
How
can
we
be
neighbors
to
other
other
boards
and
councils
etc?
Who
may
not
have
the
same
type
of
staff,
attorney
teams,
etc?
So
that's
what
the
consortium
of
cities
is
about.
C
Historically,
it's
done
a
lot
of
great
work
and
this
group
together
chose
the
topics
for
our
every
hour
month
meeting,
and
so
that
is
the
topic
that
is
for
this
evening
and
want
to
appreciate
everybody
who's
here
to
do
some
presentations
as
well.
So
then
we'll
go
into
our
old
and
new
business.
We've
got
a
couple
different
pieces
that
we're
going
to
really
try
and
keep
on
our
time
frame
the
presenters,
we'll
start
with
them.
Your
presentation.
C
We
would
love
to
hear
from
you
for
about
five
to
seven
minutes
and
then
open
it
up
for
questions
so
that
folks
really
can
do
some
lessons
learned.
This
group
is
about
networking,
so
don't
be
shy,
use
the
chat,
make
sure
your
contact
information
is
in
there,
because
somebody
inevitably
will
have
a
question
and
they'll
want
to
get
to
get
to
get
back
together
with
you
later.
C
If
they
don't
get
a
chance
to
ask
their
question
or
you
get
something
going
in
their
mind
for
later,
and
then
we
have
our
representative
judia
motley
who's
with
us,
and
we
are
so
thankful
this
evening,
and
so
thank
you.
Reppa
mobley
who's
going
to
listen
to
the
presentations
first
and
then
give
us
some
feedback
response
and
also
talk
to
us
about
what's
available
at
the
state
level
for
us
after
this
session.
C
So
we
really
appreciate
your
engagement
and
the
input
and
feedback
that
you
can
provide
for
all
of
us
and
then
we'll
hear
an
update
from
our
local
regional
local
wage
and
that
study
group,
and
then
we
have,
as
always,
your
opportunity
to
share
what's
happening
in
your
community.
Give
us
links
many
events,
etc
so
that
we
can
make
sure
that
there's
any
information
that
we
all
need
to
be
aware
of,
and
it
might
include
arpa
it
might
include
a
beer
festival.
C
It
might
include
an
invitation
to
butler
county
parade,
or
you
know
who
knows
we'll
hear
about
all
of
this
this
evening.
So
again,
thank
you,
everybody
we
do
in
this
group.
We
are
friendly.
We
are
graceful
in
regards
to
technology
and
we
also
do
take
a
break
so
welcome
to
a
meeting
of
consortium
of
cities.
So
thanks
again,
I
am
going
to
call
on
folks
to
do
their
introductions
and
again,
if
you
want
to
use
the
chat
to
put
your
contact
information,
please
feel
free.
C
I
will
go
according
to,
of
course,
my
screen,
so
thank
you
and
I
would
ask
for
mark
if
you
wouldn't
do
an
introduction
and
then
trustee
harrison

then
council,
member,
full
courts.

I'm

T
Good
evening
my
name
is
jacqueline
turway,
I'm
here
on
behalf
of
the
colorado
municipal
league
behavioral,
health
is
one
of
the
issue,
areas
that
I
cover
for
them,
and
just
so
you
know,
I'm
probably
gonna
turn
my
video
off
because
we're
just
putting
my
toddler
down
so
in
case
he
runs
in
the
room.
I
don't
want
him
to
come
and
interrupt
everyone,
but
I
am
here
so
thank
you
guys.
The.
T
U
J
J
C
In
and
participating
with
us
this
evening,
we'll
jump
into
our
community
presentations
and
mark.
I
think
you
probably
have
the
order
for
us
so
feel
free
to
jump
in
and
we'll
get
going
again.
If
you
try
and
keep
around
five
to
seven
minutes
for
your
presentation,
so
that
we
can
ask
some
questions
and
have
some
dialogue
about
how
we
can
work
and
help
you.
A
We
do
know
that
boulder
county
will
go
last,
so
why
don't
we?
Why
don't
we
just
start
with
older
city,
boulder
city
and
county
broomfield
and
then
erie
and
then
move
to
boulder
county.
P
And
mark
I'll
look
at
you.
T
P
If
I
need
to
stop
or
wave
or
make
no
bit
make
make
big
noise
so
again,
I'm
elizabeth
crowe,
deputy
director
of
city,
boulder
housing
and
human
services
and
I'll
try
to
be
brief.
I'm
gonna
guess
that
a
lot
of
us
are
going
to
be
raising
the
same
or
very
similar
themes
and
issues
this
evening.
P
P
What
we
know
is
from
what
we
hear
from
our
community
members
directly
from
our
staff
members
who
are
who
are
very
community-facing
talking
with
individuals
in
need
and
in
crisis
every
day
and
also
from
our
nonprofit
partners,
who
we
really
rely
upon
as
partners
to
help
us
address
the
many
many
needs
in
this
area
and
others
in
our
community,
and
you
know
this
is
this-
is
really
the
bullet
list
right
of
of
what
we
hear
and
what
we
see
the
kind
of
root
causes
or
some
of
those
intermediate
social
determinants
that
involve
everything
from
economic
challenges,
which
can
then
include
a
whole
range
of
different
employment.
P
Housing
challenges,
the
overwhelming
impacts
of
people
experiencing
racism,
sexism
heterosexism
other
forms
of
discrimination,
all
the
way
through
immigration
status,
violence,
lack
of
safety,
social
isolation,
all
kinds
of
forms
of
trauma,
and
one
of
the
questions
posed
to
us
all
tonight
is
what
impact
covid
has
had,
and
I
think
we
all
know
it
has
just
absolutely
exacerbated
all
of
the
problems
that
existed
well
before
coved.
P
And
you
know,
I,
I
think
one
of
the
things
I'm
looking
forward
to
hearing
and
talking
about
this
evening
is
what
changes
we
have
seen
that
have
taken
place
because
of
the
focus
we
have
put
on
this
issue
and
obviously
what
remains
to
be
done
in
terms
of
direct
services,
investments
and
partnerships
in
terms
of
the
needs.
Then,
if
those
are
some
of
the
experiences,
these
are
again,
some
of
what
we
hear
are
are
most
necessary.
P
Certainly
the
crisis
intervention.
What
we
hear
pretty
consistently
and
frequently
from
our
non-profit
partners
and
service
providers,
is
that
the
level
of
of
mental
health
needs
is
it's,
it's
all
increasing
and
the
severity
is
also
increasing,
and
so
the
number
of
people
who
need
crisis
intervention
who,
maybe
years
ago,
might
have
you
know
benefited
just
fine
from
a
more
mild.
P
You
know
form
of
intervention
or
service
is
something
that
we're
really
paying
attention
to,
and
then
all
of
these
other,
all
of
these
other
things
from
you
know
again
like
the
very
the
crisis
intervention
to
the
preventative
measures,
including
pro-social
activities,
and
that's
for
people
of
all
ages,
whether
it
is
our
young
people
who
need
to
engage
in
healthy
activities
or
our
older
adults
who
are
experiencing
extreme
social
isolation
and
loneliness
and
are
also
at
risk,
and
another
kind
of
need
that
we
hear
about,
of
course,
is
that
the
kind
of
at
the
systems
level
within
our
organizations
and
within
our
city
infrastructure,
is
a
great
need
for
workforce
capacity.
P
What
we
know
from
our
community
members
and
non-profit
partners
as
well
is
that
it's
really
important
to
have
centralized
access
to
care
from
our
larger
health
provider.
Agencies
like
mental
health
partners
like
clinica
like
boulder,
county
community
yeah,
boulder
community
health,
sorry,
but
also
kind
of
the
decentralized
access.
So
the
number
of
organizations
that
are
academic
support
groups
for
low-income
youth
who
have
integrated
mental
health
into
what
they
provide
or
other
types
of
organizations
that
are
not
kind
of
primary
mental
behavioral
health
organizations
who
are
doing
that
integration.
P
We're
seeing
and
hearing
every
day
the
need
for
more
mental
health
professionals
of
color
lgbtq
professionals.
Examples
of
what's
been
wrong.
You
know
with
systems
and
kind
of
the
discrimination
compounded
by
many
decades.
P
That
has
exacerbated
that
that
problem
now
under
covet
as
well
and
then,
of
course,
a
multi-generational
approach,
so
that
people
of
all
ages
and
backgrounds
can
get
what
they
need.
P
P
So
that's
some
of
what
we
provide
directly
through
our
department,
but
for
the
most
part
we
really
utilize.
Our
the
resources
that
we
have.
The
investments
that
we
can
make
in
our
non-profit
partners
and
listed
here
are
three
primary
ways
that
we
do
that
through
our
health
equity
fund,
our
human
services
fund
and
our
substance,
education
and
awareness
fund-
and
I
know
robin-
is
familiar
with
the
with
the
last
of
those
three,
certainly
because
the
substance
education
awareness
fund
is
sourced
by
our
recreational
marijuana
tax,
as
well
as
our
electronic
smoking
device
tax.
P
That
may
be
changing
just
based
on
some
other
demands
that
have
come
up
more
recently
for
those
funds
and
so
to
be
honest,
we're
still
working
on
exactly
what
that's
going
to
look
like
and
want
to
have
that
informed
by
many
of
our
partners
aware
that
the
county
has
its
path
forward
for
mental
behavioral
health.
We
do
really
want
to
focus
on
workforce
capacity,
because
we
see
that
as
something
that
again
is
a
is
a
clear
need
and
can
really
complement
the
kind
of
annual
investments
that
we're
making.
P
And
so
just
to
say,
these
are
some
of
the
organizations
that
we
have
been
funding
for
a
number
of
years
in
which
we
have
strong
partnerships,
and
we
appreciate
every
day
the
work
that
they
do
to
try
to
make
our
community
more
whole.
In
this
area.
P
And
then,
lastly,
and
I'll
end
here,
if
I
haven't
already
gone
over
the
five
minutes,
that
we
have
really
appreciated
and
look
forward
to
continuing
relationships
with
our
partners
at
boulder
county
and
other
municipal
municipalities
in
several
different
ways,
including
working
very
closely
with
county
staff
on
the
on
the
roadmap,
we're
participants,
as
as
you
all
are
in
the
regional
opioid
council,
and
have
a
hhs
staff
member
as
our
representative
on
the
operations
board.
P
We
talk
about
this
issue
a
lot
in
terms
of
how
we're
all
allocating
our
local
resources
and
some
federal
resources
through
the
funders
collaborative,
and
I
skipped
over
that
top
one,
which
is
that
we
really
work
hard
in
our
department
to
just
stay
in
constant
contact
with
our
nonprofit
partners,
so
that
we're
not
waiting
until
a
funding
report
or
waiting
until
there's
a
new
crisis
for
them
to
reach
out
to
us
or
for
us
to
check
in
with
them.
P
C
B
F
Yeah,
so
thank
you
so
much
for
that,
and
I
appreciate
it
I'm
just
wondering
I
didn't.
I
didn't
see
much
about
the
people
who
have
more
serious
illness
like
people
with
schizophrenia,
bipolar
with
psychotic
episodes,
schizoaffective
disorder
and.
F
See
much
about
what's
happening
at
the
jail
now,
that
is
the
boulder
county
jail
and
maybe
that's
why
that's
not
part
of
your
presentation,
but
I'm
wondering
about
people
with
more
serious
disease,
and
I'm
going
to
talk
about
that.
A
little
bit
in
my
presentation,
but
just
wondering
if
boulder
had
a
plan
for
that.
P
Yeah,
it's
a
good
question.
I
mean,
I
think
the
jail.
The
the
point
about
the
jail
is
is
we'll
we'll
hope
that
our
our
colleagues
at
the
county
will
be
addressing
that?
It's
certainly
something
that
we're
concerned
about
with
everyone,
and
some
of
the
nonprofit
partners
to
whom
we
provide
funding,
are
also
working
in
that
space
with
people
in
the
jail
system
and
as
they
are
exiting
that
system
and
re-entering
the
community.
P
For
example,
we
we
do
provide
funding
to
groups
like
focus
reentry,
to
make
sure
that
people
who
are
exiting
that
system
are
able
to
get
the
medications
that
they
need
and
help
making
appointments
and
follow-up.
We
do
know
you
know
that
it's
it's
certainly
not
exclusively.
P
The
the
kinds
of
very
kind
of
extreme
mental
health
disorders
and
diseases
you
mentioned
are
not
exclusively
experienced
by
people
experiencing
homelessness,
but
for
our
community
as
a
whole.
That's
what
a
lot
of
people
see,
and
so
our
co-responder
programs
and
again
working
with
other
municipalities
and
what
we
see
there.
Certainly
the
connection
between
people
experiencing
substance,
use
disorder
and
other
you
know.
Kind
of
high
acuity
needs
people
who
are
very
high
utilizers
of
the
emergency
room
for
for
services.
P
Those
are
all
kind
of
what
we're
trying
to
address
through
the
services
that
we
have
directly
like
co-responder,
but
primarily
since
we're
not
kind
of
a
public
health
department
and
don't
have
professionals
embedded
other
than
our
cert
team.
We
really
rely
on
our
non-profit
partners
and
municipal
and
county
collaborators
to
help
with
that.
S
Thank
you,
so
I
am
I'm
glad
that
we're
talking
about
mental
health.
It
seems
like
that
this
is
a
conversation
that
is
happening.
You
know
almost
at
a
at
a
national
level
right
now,
just
just
the
other
day
on
what
is
it
last
week
tonight
with
john
oliver
on
hbo,
he
talks
about
mental
health,
and
you
had
mentioned
the
workforce
shortage,
which
is
also
something
he
talks
about
as
well.
S
I'm
curious
if
you
have
an
idea
of
what
kind
of
how
kind
of
what
percentage
under
you
are
in
terms
in
boulder
in
terms
of
the
workforce
for
mental
health.
Do
you
have
an
idea
of
of
kind
of
how
many
more
spots
you
would
need,
or
just
kind
of
what?
What
is
the
dynamic
in
terms
of
what
does
that
shortage?
Look
like
in
boulder.
P
Yeah,
I
actually
can't
I'm
going
to
do
a
little
bit
of
digging
when
I'm
not
on
camera
and
see
what
some
of
our
latest
you
know.
Kind
of
information
is
from
mental
health
partners
and
I'm
guessing
that
some
of
our
county
folks
will
have
some
of
this
information
a
little
bit
more
handy.
P
But
you
know,
organizations
like
mental
health
partners
have
had
tens
and
dozens
and
dozens
of
vacancies,
and
that's
been
the
case
for
some
time.
I
think
folks
are
familiar
with
the
situation
recently
where
they
had
to
reduce
the
crisis
center
over
the
weekend,
because
they
they
couldn't
staff
it
and
that
some
of
the
fixes
have
been
to
kind
of
rearrange
right.
It's
not
as
though
they
had
a
massive
influx
of
new
staff
members,
but
we're
trying
to
rearrange
staffing,
so
they
could
reopen
that
that
center
more
fully.
P
So
those
are
the
kinds
of
things
that
we
see.
There
are
some
individual
therapists
that
we're
hearing
from
our
non-profit
partners
still
have
the
capacity
to
take
more
people
on,
but
they
don't
all
take
medicaid
they're
not
always
accessible
to
people
at
lower
incomes
and
voucher
programs
go
a
long
way.
P
But
if
you
kind
of
exceed
the
number
of
visits
that
are
paid
for
you
might
you
know
you
might
end
up
in
crisis,
so
I'm
kind
of
being
glass
half
empty
here.
I
just.
I
think
that
the
folks
who
we
have
in
these
roles
are
working
incredibly
hard
under
very
challenging
circumstances
and
the
more
that
we
can
do
to
try
to
look
up
the
pipeline
is
going
to
help
in
the
long
run.
Q
Sounds
good
and
I'm
in
a
similar
approach
that
now
I
could
see
if
my
screen
sharing
works.
So
here
we
go.
Q
You
all
see
my
presentation,
good
jason,
yeah,
great
and
I'm
gonna
have
to
shift
now.
This
is
on
another
screen,
but
I'll
be
pointing
this
way,
but
realize
I'm
presenting
to
all
of
you
yeah.
It's
a
great
opportunity
to
be
in
front
of
this
group,
and
elizabeth
did
a
great
job.
I
could
almost
say
you
know,
did
oditto
on
most
of
the
points
in
our
presentation,
because
that's
exactly
what
we're
facing
in
broomfield,
but
I
did
want
to
share
a
little
bit
about
what
we
face
in
broomfield.
Q
We
cross
multiple
regions
when
it
comes
to
service
delivery
from
the
state
and
department
defined
in
many
different
regions,
and
we
have
different
community
needs,
and
so
my
presentation
and
I'm
lucky
to
have
dan
casey
who's,
our
director
of
human
services
joining
me.
We've
been
co-partners
on
addressing
behavioral
health
since
2017
and
dan,
and
I
have
many
late
night
conversations
on
what
are
we
doing
well
and
what
can
we
do
better?
So
it's
great
to
have
his
partnership
and
I
expect
him
to
interject
as
we
go
along.
Q
So
when
you
talk
about
some
of
our
broomfield
challenges
when
it
comes
to
behavioral
health-
and
some
of
these
have
been
touched
on
already
by
elizabeth,
but
you
know
when
you-
I
attended
a
presentation
from
the
trust
in
america's
health
and
it's
a
public
health
organization
that
looked
at.
Q
But
when
you
think
about
how
that
applies
to
broomfield
and
some
of
the
challenges
we
have
is
one
provider
cassidy
that
was
already
brought
up.
We've
heard
both
from
mental
health
partners
and
community
reach,
that
they
don't
have
enough
providers
and
there's
not
enough
providers
in
the
pipeline
to
be
able
to
fulfill
that
need,
and
that's
looking
just
a
basic
crisis
services.
And
then
you
have
outpatient
services
and
other
services
going
on
in
the
community,
so
it
is
something
that
definitely
needs
to
be
addressed,
but
it's
going
to
be
a
long-term
solution.
Q
We
don't
even
have
intensive
treatment
locations
in
the
city,
so
we're
reaching
out
often
or
referring
people
to
other
cities
in
the
region
when
it
comes
to
intensive
treatments,
and
so
when
those
locations
are
already
full
or
like
we
said
some
of
them
have
to
reduce
hours.
It
impacts
the
ability
of
residents
to
get
services
needed
at
that
point
in
time.
Q
Obviously
we
know
it's
a
very
fragmented
system
when
you're
looking
at
the
how
the
behavioral
health
administration
is
addressing
it
moving
forward
and
trying
to
coordinate,
there's
so
many
different
agencies
that
touch
this.
So
many
different
programs
and
the
idea
is
how
can
we
come
together
locally
to
have
a
coordinated
approach?
Q
We've
heard
a
lot
from
our
residents
when
we
went
through
our
community
health
needs
assessment,
that
the
system
is
just
so
hard
to
navigate,
and
we
hear
that
often
from
people
on
medicaid
and
obviously
those
that
don't
have
insurance,
but
also
from
those
that
are
insured,
navigating
the
system
and
being
able
to
get
in
somewhere.
Q
As
I
mentioned
before,
we
cross
multiple
regions
and
then,
lastly,
just
that
we're
going
to
be
facing
a
challenge
that
is
going
to
be
with
us
over
a
period
of
time,
because
the
behavioral
health
transformation
is
going
to
take
time
to
for
them
to
work
on
some
of
these
long-term
solutions.
So
it's
good
to
see
them
some
things
in
the
work,
but
we
have
to
expect
that
a
lot
of
that's
going
to
be
built
as
we're
doing
the
work
we're
doing
right
now.
Q
Our
approach
in
broomfield
is
in
three
pillars.
One
is
to
change
the
narrative
so
really
addressing
the
stigma
around
mental
health
and
behavioral
health,
reducing
various
barriers
to
services
and
the.
Lastly,
what
our
community
really
wanted
to
focus
on
is
what's
the
positive
aspects
of
overall
health
and
well-being,
and
how
do
we
make
that
a
culture
and
so
we're
really
focusing
on
community
connectedness?
How
do
we
decrease
social
isolation
and
exclusion,
and
some
of
the
things
that
we've
done
is
we're
with
partners
and
actually
the
region
running
media
campaigns
to
reduce
stigma?
Q
So
we've
done
the
let's
talk
about
it
campaigns
we
brought
in
multiple
people
to
share
their
stories.
There's
these
are
recorded
stories.
Q
This
is
something
now
that
santura
and
other
health
system
partners
are
looking
to
expand
across
the
entire
state,
we're
also
building
a
community
partner
capacity
to
help
promote
those
messages
in
hard
to
reach
your
underserved
communities,
so
community
ambassadors
carrying
the
message
that
are
those
trusted
individuals
and
community
instead
of
us,
as
the
government
entity
coming
in
as
far
as
access
to
care,
there's
so
much
that
we
have
to
wait
to
be
built
out,
but
we've
really
tried
to
promote
what's
available
out
there,
we
do
have
a
co-responder
program.
Q
We
could
obviously
do
a
lot
more
in
that
area.
We
spent
a
ton
of
time
of
expanding
from
one
community
mental
health
center.
We
used
to
just
have
mental
health
partners
to
bringing
in
community
reach,
because
half
of
our
residents
are
sort
of
the
adams
county
side
than
the
baltimore
county
side
of
receiving
services.
That's
helped
at
least
expand
access
to
care.
Q
We
have
a
very
engaged
regional
council
and
we've
really
focused
on
bringing
those
in
with
lived
experiences,
and
then
we
did
receive
a
grant
from
the
department
of
human
services
to
help
mental
health
partners
retain
existing
staff,
and
so
that's
one
like
small,
stop
gap
measure
we
could
take
as
far
as
addressing
that
workforce
capacity,
and
then
we
also
have
a
monthly
community
connections
court
that,
as
people
are
going
through
a
community
court.
What
we
know
is
often
they're
there,
but
there's
a
need
of
not
just
sending
them
out
the
door.
Q
How
do
we
connect
them
up
to
services?
So
our
human
services
agency
works
very
closely
with
our
court
on
that
and
then
for
community
connectedness.
We've
done
some
really
innovative
programming
through
our
communities
that
care
coalition,
such
as
we've
partnered
with
school
districts,
to
really
promote
and
incorporate
social
and
emotional
learning
we're
seeing
a
lot
of
that
expanding
we've
looked.
How
do
we
reduce
isolation
for
some
of
our
senior
population
through
a
pen
pal
program
by
bringing
some
of
our
adams
12
students
in
to
connect
diversity,
equity
and
inclusion?
Q
Q
I
won't
go
a
lot
into
this
because
elizabeth
already
touched
on
it.
I
I
would
just
say,
is
again
as
we
look
at
this
population
health
approach
and
how
do
we?
What
do
we
ultimately
want
to
go
sort
of
this?
Resonated
with
me
of
how
do
we,
for
those
that
have
been
diagnosed,
make
sure
they're
getting
effective
and
efficient
clinical
care
for
those
that
are
at
risk?
How
do
we
mitigate
risk
and
provide
that
early
intervention
and
then
for
those
that
are
in
that
sort
of
healthy
phase?
You
know
we
all
have
good
days.
Q
We
all
get
bad
days.
How
do
we
build
up
those
resiliency
skills
and
allow
people
to
continue
to
thrive,
and
so
some
of
the
things
we've
identified
are
more
funding,
obviously
continued
use
of
telehealth
enhancing
the
workforce.
This
was
brought
up
with
our
bipod
ambassadors,
the
lgbtq
plus
populations
and
community
health
workers,
funding
high
qualified
mental
health
professionals
in
schools.
Q
B
D
Yeah,
thank
you
very
much
for
presentation
for,
for
both
that
have
gone
before.
I
guess
the
question
I
would
have
with
all
the
great
activities
and
and
the
solutions
that
are
out
there.
How
are
you
able
to
measure
it
in
a
way
that
not
only
is
on
the
smart
stuff
of
percentage,
etcetera
decrease
whatever?
D
Q
Obviously
I'll
just
speak
from
broomfield's
perspective,
you
know
we
get
all
the
quantitative
data.
We
can
look
at
to
show
whether
or
not
we're
improving
or
doing
worse,
both
from
our
providers,
our
community
and
also
from
our
surveillance
systems.
But
the
other
thing
we're
looking
at
are
more
what
are
those
qualitative
data
sources
and
non-traditional
data
collection
methods,
and
so,
when
you
think
about
community
connectedness
we're
really
talking
about
belonging,
we
all
feel
like
we're
included.
Q
We
have
the
surveys
from
the
state
health
department,
the
one
that
I
have
found.
Probably
the
most
insightful
is
the
colorado
pulse
survey
by
the
colorado
health
foundation
and
they
even
break
it
down
by
sub-populations,
and
it's
more
around
attitudes
and
beliefs
of
colorado
residents
versus
specific
behaviors
and
you
can
dive
in
I'll
make
sure
I
follow
up
and
send
the
presentation
there's
a
whole
section
on
mental
health
and
to
me
that
really
spoke
to
here's.
What
coloradoans
they're
saying
they
need.
How
do
we
begin
to
adjust
to
solve
some
of
these
issues.
C
Thanks
for
that
and
feel
free
to
send
any
everybody
feel
free
to
send
presentations
or
any
follow-up
documents
to
mark
and
and
and
he's
nodding.
So
that's
why
I'm
volunteering
him
to
send
out
to
everybody
together,
council
member.
B
S
Thank
you.
So,
mr
valine,
you
had
mentioned
a
phrase:
that's
been
in
the
media
quite
a
bit
lately
actually
for
a
while
now
social
emotional
learning
within
schools,
and
that's
it's
gotten
a
bad
rap
in
the
political
sphere.
But
could
you
explain
that
and
kind
of
talk
about
why
that
is
so
important
for
learning
within
our
schools,
especially
as
we
come
as
we
continue
to
go
through
kind
of
the
waning
pandemic.
Q
S
Q
At
the
very
high
level,
there's
a
lot
of
programs
tied
to
it,
but
it's.
How
do
we
interact
and
deal
with
each
other
right
from
that
social
emotional
perspective,
and
it's
really
giving
giving
the
students
those
tools
and
resources
to
be
able
to
address
and
handle
that?
So
we
have
programs
like
sources
of
strength.
I
actually
I'm
not
getting
lost
most
there's
a
lot
that
I
could
go
through,
but
from
my
belief
in
order
to
be
able
to
thrive
and
be
to
learn.
Q
Well,
you
also
have
to
be
able
to
feel
safe,
feel
like
you,
belong
and
feel,
like
you
have
some
of
those
resiliency
tools
to
be
able
to
be
present
and
really
engaged
in
school.
So
I
know
it
does
I've
heard
some
of
those
comments
around
social,
emotional
learning,
but
to
me
it's
one
of
the
key
investments
that
we
can
make
to
begin
to
address
some
of
our
mental
health
issues
across
the
country.
C
D
So
I'll
start
and
be
very
quick,
so
real
real
quickly
when
the
new
board
was
elected
in
2020,
which
of
three
of
us
came
on
one
of
the
things
in
the
heat
of
the
pandemic,
that
we
all
felt
as
a
ward
that
when
we
eventually
threw
it,
we
were
again
we
were
going
ongoing
and
then
going
through
it
and
afterwards
was
where
what
are
we
going
to
do
about
the
mental
health
potion
for
our
town?
D
It
I
believe,
and
we
got
briefed
on
it.
We
did
some
due
diligence
in
regards
to
that
and
felt
that
it
was
something
that
we
in
the
town
of
erie
that's
growing
as
quickly
as
we
are
to
take
on
in
the
funding
side
of
that
and
felt
that
was
one
of
our
priorities.
So
we
had
those
conversations
and
then
on
the
27th
of
may
of
last
year.
D
We
brought
melissa
richardson
on
in
that
role,
and
so,
and
so
it's
been
about
a
little
over
a
year
that
she's
been
involved
and
she's
done
a
very
good
job
in
terms
of
trying
to
to
really
deal
with
the
things
on
a
tangible
level
and
then
coordinate
activities
and
et
cetera
I'll.
Let
her
talk
more
about
it,
but
in
erie.
I
think
the
big
thing
that
we
had
to
concern
with
when
I
talked
to
the
chief
in
just
an
offside
conversation
at
the
beginning
of
the
pandemic.
D
We
trustees
were
getting
emails
from
residents
just
complaining
about
basic
things
and
we're
using
f-bombs
and
dropping
this
and
dropping
that,
and
I
took
a
step
back
and
said:
is
there
more
to
it
than
just
normal
complaints
and
that
anecdotal
evidence
of
what
they've
seen
from
a
police
department
perspective
was
something
that
was
real.
And
so
I
think
to
that
point.
That
was
something
that
was
important
to
discuss
and
so
I'll
leave
it
to
melissa.
To
talk
more
about.
U
Perfect
and
it's
short
and
sweet,
I
just
did
a
brief
overview
and
I
can
really
speak
to
a
lot
of
the
corresponds
and
police
department,
so
some
challenges
in
erie.
This
is
our
correspondence
data
from
january
of
this
year
to
may
and
so
that
chart
shows
of
the
96
active,
corresponds,
calls
and
case
management,
referrals
that
we've
dealt
with
here
in
erie,
the
majority
have
been
mental
health
related
and
then
you'll
see
followed
by
parenting
and
then
older,
adult
and
geriatric
calls.
U
U
So
I
understand
like
there
is
a
huge
need
for
that
therapy
piece
and
long
wait
lists
things
like
that
and
yes,
code
has
definitely
increased
the
mental
illness
and
substance
use
that
we've
seen,
and
it's
just
dealing
with
that
since
that's
been
a
lot
of
people's
coping
skills
and
then
our
efforts
here
in
erie
we've
really
tried
to
be
informative,
with
the
nine
and
eight
crisis
line,
so
getting
that
out
onto
social
media
telling
people
about
it.
U
However,
we
can
word
of
mouth
just
to
spread
that
around
as
a
resource
to
people,
so
hopefully
they'll
know
they
can
utilize
it
and
a
lot
of
people
don't
even
know
that
co-response
exists
either
so
utilizing
that
as
well.
We
did
national
night
out
last
night
here
in
erie,
and
that
happened
all
over
boulder
county.
It
was
fun.
U
Correspondents
were
everywhere
too
just
sharing
about
who
we
are
and
the
resource
we
have
and
how
we
are
here
to
help
the
community,
so
that
was
really
fun
and
trustee
harrison
mentioned
where
you
know
he
advocated,
along
with
other
trustees,
to
bring
me
on,
and
then
we
proposed
for
another
correspondent
to
come
on.
U
So
that's
going
to
start
in
january
we're
bringing
on
a
second
correspondence,
so
that'll
be
really
exciting,
just
to
have
another
person
here
and
just
more
more
hands
to
help
all
the
need
and
eerie,
and
that
will
expand
our
coverage
time
too.
So
we're
hoping
to
go
from
10
a.m,
to
10
p.m,
versus
the
12
p.m,
to
8
pm.
So
that
will
give
us
some
more
time
that
we're
on
and
able
to
help
another
thing
at
the
police
department,
they're,
hiring
a
victim
services
and
restorative
justice
manager,
and
she
starts
the
22nd
of
this
month.
U
U
U
I
mentioned
the
psychiatric
care,
especially
for
community
members
with
medicaid,
and
children
has
been
really
really
challenging,
seeing
the
wait
list
for
child
psychiatrists,
and
things
like
that
has
been
really
hard
even
to
children's
like
getting
people
referred
there,
it
takes
some
time
easier
access
and
availability
for
geriatric
mental
health.
That's
a
lot
of
our
calls
to
you,
but
how?
What
are
the
things
that
they
need
for,
for
example,
individuals
that
are
aging
in
place
and
suffer
from
dementia
I've
seen,
especially
with
families
who
have
private
insurance?
U
They
can't
afford
to
put
their
loved
one
into
a
long-term
care
facility.
So
then
they're
trying
to
figure
out
other
ways
to
manage
them
and
they're
not
really
living.
So
just
that
is
a
huge
need
and
then
care
for
this
is
currently
very
expensive.
So
that's
the
barrier
there
and
then
the
inpatient
substance,
substance,
abuse
services
for
adolescents.
U
A
lot
of
our
teams
are
struggling
with
substance,
use,
they're,
trying
to
cope
with
the
isolation
and
everything
they
experience
through
kobit
and
then
maybe
getting
behind
with
school
and
everything
and
yeah
there's
a
lot
of
need.
We
we
deal
with
a
lot
of
stuff
with
the
school
resource
officers.
I've
partnered
a
lot
with
them
to
help
just
support
all
those
students
in
schools
and
that's
all
I
have.
C
H
Good
evening,
everyone,
I
will
be
brief,
so
here
in
the
town
of
superior,
we
are
obviously
a
a
small
town,
we're
only
four
square
miles,
so
I
figured
I
would
kind
of
give.
H
H
J
H
Have
the
resources
to
directly
dedicate
specific
staff
to
this
issue?
However,
it
is
an
issue
that
we
have
prioritized
and
are
integrating
into
other
parts
of
our
our
town
services.
So
I
was
going
to
spend
a
little
bit
of
time
discussing
the
co-responder
program,
but
thanks
to
that
fantastic
presentation,
just
now,
I
don't
have
to
do
that.
All
I'll
do
is
just
give
it
a
plug
and
say
it's
been
great
for
us
and
I
would
recommend
it
for
those
of
you
who
have
not
yet
implemented
it
with
your
municipalities.
H
H
The
second
area
that
is
kind
of
the
elephant
in
the
room
for
us
is
the
marshall
fire
staff,
made
connections
very
early
on
with
mental
health
service
providers
and
took
on
the
role
of
facilitating
connections
for
our
residents
shortly
after
the
fire.
So
staff
was
stepping
into
kind
of
new
roles
and
doing
what
they
could
on
an
ad
hoc
basis,
and
then
we
also
then
facilitated
and
hosted
group
sessions
at
our
community
center,
both
for
discussion
purposes,
as
well
as
connecting
folks
to
professionals
for
for
later
sessions.
H
One
of
the
things
that
I
am
proud
of
is
we
have
a
one
of
our
advisory
committees.
Is
our
cultural
arts
and
public
spaces
committee,
our
caps
committee
and
they
partnered
with
our
superior
chamber
of
commerce,
to
develop
an
art
therapy
program
that
just
received
rave
reviews
we
ran
out
of
spots
had
to
put
put
more
sessions
together.
We
thought
it
might
be
a
short-term
thing.
It
is
continuing
on
to
today
and
and
beyond.
H
It's
just
been
a
a
incredible
resource
for
those
who
are
continuing
to
struggle
with
the
mental
effects
of
the
marshall
fire
and
then
also
one
of
the
things
that
we've
done,
we
did
early
on
was
work
with
the
colorado
department
of
public
health
and
environment.
In
utilizing
their
crisis.
H
Program
for
others,
they
were
impacted
by
marshall
fire,
so
it
was
trying
to
try
to.
T
H
Group
we
have
within
the
town
is
our
superior
youth
leadership
committee:
silk.
They
are
our
our
high
schoolers.
I
think
we
might
have
one
middle
school
on
there
a
middle
school
around
there,
but
this
is
something
that
they
took
on
and
really
took
leadership
and
ownership
of
last
year
and
they
put
together
a
mental
health
campaign
in
which
they
presented
and
brought
forth
ideas,
not
just
throughout
the
community
in
our
community
channels,
but
also
to
the
local
high
schools
and
their
campaign
really
stressed
three
topics:
one
was
school
stress
and
available.
H
Counseling
one
was
depression
and
anxiety
and
the
third
was
suicide
prevention
and
they
took
this
on
because
this
is
what
they
heard
from
their
classmates
was
needed
and
necessary
and
really
proud
that
it
was
something
that
they
were
able
to
do
so
if
anybody's
interested,
I
can
certainly
share
other
resources
from
them.
But
that's
that's
the
approach
that
we've
tried
to
take
not
directly
because
we
don't
have
the
resources
to
directly
address
this,
but
can
integrate
it
throughout
everything
we
do
in
the
town.
So
thank
you
very
much.
B
G
Up
next,
I
believe,
that's
me
yeah
and
we
have
superior
beat
as
one
we're
1.2
square
miles
and
2000
people.
So
I
wanted
to
give
a
little
additional
context
about
what
it's
like
to
be
in
a
very
small
town
and
try
to
provide
mental
health
services
and
for
us
it's
our
lions,
emergency
assistance
fund
who
provides
mental
health
services
and
just
a
couple
of
data
points
according
to
them.
57
percent
of
folks
getting
services
are
extremely
low.
G
Income
26
are
very
low
income,
12
percent
are
low
income,
so
that
leaves
five
percent
of
people.
Accessing
services
are
not
considered
low
income.
There's
a
huge
need
leaf
expressed
to
me
that
they
are
looking
for
partnership
of
all
kinds,
they're,
very
resource
constrained,
and
it's
a
wonderful
organization
I'll
give
them
another
plug
later.
When
I
talk
about
their
fundraiser
and
then
the
other
thing
I
wanted
to
discuss
was
the
co-responder
program,
so
lions
has
a
full-time
co-responder.
Now
she
started
in
may
she's,
based
in
line.
G
She
has
an
office
in
the
sheriff's
department
and
just
to
give
you
some
context
about
the
the
need
that
we
have
here
in
2021
and
the
entire
year
of
2021,
there
were
13
co-responder
contacts,
and
that
was
a
co-responder
who's
working
for
boulder
county,
not
located
right
here,
but
the
entire
year.
There
were
13
in
the
month
of
july.
This
year
our
co-responder
had
13
contacts,
so
it's
the
program
is
so
necessary.
G
One
thing
that
our
correspondent
shared
with
me
is
that
when
she
goes
on
a
call
with
a
sheriff's
deputy,
the
deputy
winds
up
learning
so
much
about
how
to
interact
with
people
who
are
having
mental
health
challenges
or
any
sort
of
challenge
that
doesn't
really
require
policing.
So
it's
a
huge
benefit.
G
F
Okay,
I
just
had
a
quick
question
for
you,
mayor
rogan.
What
is
that
person
who's
the
co-responder
if
they're,
responding
to
13
calls
a
month?
Is
that
your
full-time
person,
or
that
was
so?
What
are
they
doing
the
rest
of
the
time?
Are
they
working
with
those
people
who
they
co-responded
to
and
trying
to
connect
them
with
services
following
up
with
them,
or
what
is
it
that
they
do.
G
That's
that's
my
understanding.
They
work
with
whatever
you
know.
County
resources
are
appropriate
and
with
leaf.
Who
is
a
social
services
net
to
get
them
the
help
they
need
other
than
that?
That's
a
really
good
question
and
I
will
find
I
will
ask
and
I'll
get
back
to
you.
N
Yes,
you
so
you
do
see
the
slide.
You
see
the
okay
great
awesome,
that's
great!
Is
it
the
right
size?
Yes,
great,
okay,
good
evening
everybody,
so
I'm
the
behavioral
health.
My
name
is
lisa
moreno,
I'm
behavioral
health,
strategic
planner
at
boulder
county
community
services
and
I'm
a
smart,
a
part
of
a
very
small
team
that
was
created
at
the
beginning
of
the
year
to
focus
exclusively
on
behavioral
health
in
boulder
county
at
the
macro
level.
N
N
Third,
we're
supporting
beralde,
county's,
opioid
settlement
planning;
and,
finally,
when
the
time
comes,
if
the
time
comes,
we
will
be
tasked
with
exploring
the
readiness
and
need
for
behavioral
health
tax
in
the
county.
N
N
We
are
starting
this
process
by
identifying
key
focus
areas
in
the
system
of
behavioral
health
and
actually
saying
system
of
behavioral.
Health
always
makes
me
a
little
bit
uncomfortable,
because
the
reality
is
that
there
isn't
a
system
of
behavioral
health.
N
It
is
not
a
system,
it's
a
hodgepodge
of
programs
and
funding
streams
that
doesn't
necessarily
go
together,
but
there's
no
other
way
to
talk
about
it,
except
to
say
system,
so
where
we've
decided
to
begin
our
exploration
into
behavioral
health
for
the
county
and
create
this
plan
are
looking
at
structures
and
governance
that
other
communities
have
used
as
they've
created
their
own
strategic
plans,
also
key
infrastructure
for
us
as
such
as
navigation
referral
platforms
and
integrating
988
improving
community
community
crisis
response,
such
as
more
mobile
response
on
correspondence
and
looking
at
strengths
and
gaps
in
this
current
continuum
of
care
across
the
continuum
of
care.
N
N
To
support
arpa,
as
most
of
you
probably
know,
arpa
resulted
in
the
county.
Arpa
process
resulted
in
ex
impressive
community
engagement
and
the
investment
of
11
million
dollars
in
projects,
specifically
in
the
category
of
mental
wellness
and
social
resilience.
N
Our
team
helped
fine-tune
the
plans
and
develop
budgets
for
the
community
members
proposals
and,
in
the
end,
the
projects
that
were
approved
by
the
bocc
excuse
me
by
the
bocc
included
mobile
response
crisis
response
teams
that
were
de-linked
from
law
enforcement
community
facing
a
hub
navigation,
navigation
hub
and
four
projects
to
improve
equitable
access,
including
grants
to
community-based
organizations
to
expand
services,
they're
already
providing
mental
health
vouchers,
school-based
services
and
community
trainings.
N
Soon,
the
boulder
county
regional
opioid
council
will
be
suspended
and
their
job
is
to
finalize
and
submit
a
plan
to
the
attorney
general
for
the
use
of
settlement
of
settlement
funds
in
our
region.
Our
team
will
be
the
staff
for
the
council
and
we
have
already
convened
and
started
facilitating
an
operations
group
to
advise
the
council.
D
Thank
you
first
off
for
everybody
who
did
presentations
and
the
staff
that
did
a
lot
of
the
work
kudos
to
all
the
work
that
you
do.
I
know
it's
challenging.
I
know
it's
under
resource.
D
We
would
all
like
it
to
be
more,
and
I
think
that's
I
putting
on
my
project
manager
hat
because
that's
what
I
do
for
a
living
in
the
tech
world
and
that
is
from
a
threat
perspective.
Obviously,
funding
is
a
big
key
concern.
I
would
imagine
long
term.
D
D
How
do
we?
How
do
we
keep
that
going
with
those
challenges
that
are
there.
M
I'm
I'm
happy
to
start
that
conversation.
I
think
it's
a
really
important
question
and
I
know
that
we'll
hear
from
representative
ahmadily
around
opportunities,
given
the
state
legislation
that
she's
pioneered
and
additional
funding
sources,
I
think
there's
we're
sort
of
at
a
tipping
point.
M
M
We
really
see
the
arpa
funding
as
sort
of
bridge
funding
to
make
sure
that
we
have
proven
programs
that
can
actually
be
then
ready,
shovel
ready
for
the
federal,
the
new
federal
dollars,
as
well
as
the
state
dollars
that
are
coming
because
of
the
behavioral
health
transformation
of
the
state
that
we've
never
seen
before.
M
So
I
think
it's
a
cautionary
tale
and
I'm
glad
you're
bringing
it
up.
But
personally
I
I
see
the
opportunity
that
we've
never
seen
before.
O
O
K
Q
From
my
perspective,
the
there's
never
gonna
be
enough
funding
to
do
what
is
needed,
and
so
we're
really
talking
about
culture,
change
and
community
change
in
broomfield.
Q
And
you
know
we
have
our
non-profit
grants
that
human
services
distributes
and
that's
the
other
part
of
this
is
we
really
need
to
begin
to
address
those
social
determinants
of
health
to
begin
to
make
inroads
into
this
issue,
so
I
think
as
much
as
we
can
not
only
talk
about
funding,
but
how
do
we
start
to
break
down
some
of
those
policies
and
systems
that
create
these
barriers
and
begin
to
make
it
easier
for
people.
L
To
get
what
they
need,
I
was
going
to
just
chime
in
quickly.
I
think
the
the
analogy
you
used
was
very
poignant:
the
the
seat
belts
right
that
becomes
habituated
behavior
over
time,
people
didn't
used
to
wear
their
seat
belts,
and
now
they
do
the
same
thing
with
mental
health.
If
we
take
that
population
approach
more
of
a
preventative
approach,
mental
health
doesn't
have
the
stigma
that
it
had
before
right.
We
start
to
break
that
barrier
down,
and
now
it
becomes
that
kind
of
habituated
unconscious
competence.
L
L
I
do
get
worried
also
from
our
perspective,
about
harper
funding
and
it
is
bridge
funding
because
it's
not
there
forever.
So
what?
If
we
stand
up
these
amazing
programs
and
then
2024
the
money
runs
out.
Where
do
we
go
next?
So
we've
got
to
think
of
that.
You
know
that
ounce
of
prevention
is
worth
a
pound
of
cure
approach
and
really
start
establishing
in
our
presentation.
I
can
share
this
quickly
again.
L
I
don't
know
if
it's
worth
the
time,
but
our
population
health
approach
that
jason
talked
about
during
the
presentation
and
really
keeping
healthy
people
healthy
again.
Another
correlation,
you
could
say,
homelessness
right.
Let's
try
to
keep
folks
in
their
homes
as
opposed
to
getting
more
inflow
into
our
system
with
behavioral
health.
Let's
try
to
get
people
healthy
and
keep
them
in
that
healthy
space,
so
that
we're
still
you
know
again
preventing
long-term
or
greater
problems
downstream,
so
that
that's
probably
an
impossible
question
to
answer,
but
I
think
there's
some
good
approaches.
C
Rep,
a
mobile,
if
you
don't
mind
what
I
we're
we're
at
a
time
crunch
at
this
point,
and
so
I
would
love
to
just
turn
it
over
to
you
for
your
presentation,
because
we
have
a
few
other
pieces
of
the
agenda.
So
if
that's
okay
and
then.
F
Sure
yeah,
so
how
much
time
do
we
have?
Because
we
prepared
a
presentation?
That's
a
little
bit.
You
know
it's
probably
more
like
well,
we
when
I
say
we
I
mean
robin,
and
so
it's
a
little
bit
longer,
we'll
just
start
and
martin.
You
tell
me
to
stop.
Give
me
the
cane.
If
we
go
on
too
long.
Okay,.
C
C
We
still
need
to
hear
from
our
local
wage
study
group
team.
We
still
need
to
hear
from
the
community
input
process
on
open
space
that
presentation
so
just
to
give
folks
an
idea
and
we
can
always
forfeit
our
five-minute
break
as
well,
which
is
not,
which
is
an
option.
C
So,
let's
start
there,
let's
start
with
your
presentation
and
I'll
I'll
try
to
engage
that.
Does
that
work
for
everybody.
F
Okay,
I'm
a
pretty
fast
talker,
so
I
just
I
do
want
to
start
by
addressing
I'm
really
glad
to
hear
you're
talking
about
this
tax.
I
think
it's
no
secret
to
anybody
on
the
call
that
I've
been
very
much
advocating
for
their
county-wide
mental
health
tax.
F
If
you
decide
to
do
it
is
what
will
help
you
with
the
ongoing
funding
and
then
the
other
thing
I
would
say
about
well,
how
do
we
get
the
funding,
we're
already
spending
the
money
and
we're
spending
the
money
in
jails,
we're
spending
the
money
on
homeless
services,
we're
spending
the
money
on
these
crazy
short
mental
health
stays
we're
spending
the
money.
So
I
would
love
for
us
to
agree
to
spend
the
money
differently
than
how
we're
spending
the
money
right
now
but
anyway.
So
let
me
just
start.
F
We
have
two.
We
have
problems
to
solve
I'd
love
to
talk
to
you
about
what
happened
in
2022
and
then
we
can
talk
a
little
bit
about
what
we
have
in
mind
for
2023
mental
health,
america
last
year,
rated
colorado
dead
last
in
the
nation
for
access
to
care
for
adults
with
mental
health
agent.
Just
to
put
a
point
on
that
51
out
of
51.,
so
we
came
in
behind
alabama
missouri,
mississippi
puerto
rico.
You
name
it.
We
were
last.
F
The
recommendation
is
that
we
have
50
beds
per
100,
000
people
in
colorado.
We
have
about
10
beds
per
100,
000
people,
people
with
high
acuity
conditions
can
and
do
recover,
but
they
need
a
different
kind
of
care
and
the
people
who
are
are
have
these
high
acuity
conditions
are
the
people
that
are
living
on.
F
Our
streets
that
are
in
our
jails
and
that
somebody
pointed
out
that's
only
five
percent
of
the
population,
but
it
is
costing
us
a
large
percent
of
the
money
that
we
spend
because
short-term
hospital
stays
jails,
streets,
shelters
and
the
morgues.
This
is
all
very
costly
for
our
community
and
all
the
criminal
justice,
involvement
and
cost
of
lawyers
and
public
defenders,
and
not
to
mention
that
these
are
human
beings
who
are
lives,
are
being
devastated
by
the.
M
F
V
Today,
my
son
pled
guilty
to
a
felony
after
spending
14
months
in
jail
and
in
the
state
mental
hospital
here
in
colorado.
His
crime
is
severe
mental
illness.
His
actual
charge
was
trespassing,
and
this
happened
because
after
trying
unsuccessfully
to
get
him
into
long-term
treatment
and
inpatient
hospitalization
after
having
eight
hospitalizations
that
were
short-term
within
a
six-month
period,
his
father
pressed
charges
for
trespassing
against
his
son
so
that
he
could
get
into
the
criminal
justice
system
so
that
he
could
then
get
into
the
state
hospital
the
way
this
works
in
colorado.
V
V
Can
you
imagine
if
you
had
stage
four
cancer
and
you
had
to
wait
nine
months
for
treatment
and
then
once
you
got
treatment
on
top
of
that,
you
had
to
get
a
felony
for
having
cancer
it's
insane.
We
have
to
change
the
way
that
we
think
about
mental
illness.
We
have
to
change
the
way
that
we
fund
it.
The
way
that
we
talk
about
it,
especially
in
the
state
of
colorado,.
F
Patrice
harris
son
spent
four
months
in
solitary
confinement
in
the
larimer
county
jail
waiting
for
a
competency
bed.
Then,
all
of
a
sudden
they
decided.
Okay,
he
can
get
outpatient.
He
was
still
actively
psychotic,
so
they
sent
him
off
to
live
in
the
street
because
she
couldn't
have
him
in
her
home.
F
Her
son
was
caged
in
a
rural
jail
and
I've
been
to
these
jails
and
they
literally
do
have
cages
with
treatment
for
55
days
of
waiting
without
treatment,
55
days
awaiting
a
bed
at
the
state
hospital
he'd
gotten
in
a
fight
over
a
hamburger
and
french
fries,
which
resulted
in
him
being
thrown
in
jail
and
then
spending
25
months
in
this
system
sylvia.
She
lives
here
in
boulder,
her
husband,
her
kids.
Their
son
is
in
jail.
Now
he's
been
there
for
over
a
year.
F
F
He
beat
her
to
the
point
where
she
was
hospitalized
and
had
to
have
multiple
surgeries,
and
now
he
has
felt
any
charges
and
has
spent
17
months
in
the
boulder
county
jail
waiting
for
a
bet
at
the
state
hospital
we'll
skip
this
next
one,
but
I
just
wanted
to
put
a
little
bit
of
a
human
face
on
what's
happening
here,
because
I
think
those
of
us
in
these
jobs,
where
we're
policy
makers,
sometimes
we
lose
sight
of
who
it
is
we're
doing
this
work
for
and
why
we're
doing
it.
F
In
2022
we
took
450
million
dollars
of
arpa
funds
and
allocated
it
for
behavioral
health.
What
should
be
of
interest
to
you
is
that
90
million
of
that
went
for
community
gap
grants
that
means
that
the
county,
the
cities,
the
judicial
districts,
can
all
apply
for
money
from
these
community
grants,
and
these
are
one-time
funds.
F
We'll
put
the
full
list
of
all
the
bills
in
the
chat
and
it's
a
pdf
that
you
can
access,
and
but
I
also
wanted
to
mention
that
we
we
also
passed
some
bills
that
had
to
do
with
some
of
this
entanglement
of
mental
illness
of
jail.
So
we
we
have
a
new
policy
now
around
competency
restoration
that
should
allow
for
more
people
to
be
out
in
the
community
getting
competency
restoration
as
an
outpatient,
but
that
is
going
to
need
places
for
people
who
are
homeless
to
live
while
they're
getting
this
competency
restoration.
F
We
also
put
30
million
30
million
dollars
into
competency,
restoration
beds.
We
added
5
million
dollars
to
the
pre-trial
diversion
program,
and
I
think
some
of
you
may
have
heard
that
the
boulder
county
d.a
used
that
money
just
got
a
grant
with
this
money
to
expand
the
pre-trial
diversion
program
that
they're
already
running.
F
We
ran
a
bill
that
says
people
who
have
been
found
not
guilty
by
reason
of
insanity
can
should
some
of
them
don't
need
to
be
in
the
state
hospital.
We
have
at
least
60
patients
at
the
state
hospital
right
now.
Don't
need
that
level
of
care,
but
what
they
do
need
is
a
place
to
go,
and
so
this
this
bill
says
hey.
Let
us
at
least
get
them
through
a
process
so
that,
if
there
don't
need
to
be
there,
they
can
be
released
into
a
lower
level
of
care.
F
And
then
we
also
did
a
complete
rewrite
of
the
2765
statute
that
governs
involuntary
commitments.
F
F
So
how
can
communities
apply
for
funding?
The
behavioral
health
administration
is
developing
an
application
process.
Now,
if
you
keep
your
eye
on
these
websites,
they
will
be
making
an
announcement.
They
will
be
pushing
this
information
out
to
you
all,
but
right
now
is
when
you
should
be
preparing
for
applying
for
these
grants
and.
T
T
F
So
this
last
one
is
about
is
about
this
tax,
and
so
I
recently
wrote
an
op-ed
with
sheriff
kelly
and
with
michael
dougherty,
our
our
boulder
county
d.a,
because,
like
I
said,
we've
been
visiting
with
this
idea
for
the
last
three
years.
F
And
our
hope
is
that
the
county
commissioners
will
see
it
as
in
our
community's
best
interest
to
ask
the
citizens
to
roll
that
tax
over
and
use
that
money
to
pay
for
ongoing
costs,
so
that
we
can
leverage
all
of
the
federal
dollars
that
are
currently.
F
If
we
work
together
to
figure
out
what
is
the
best
solution
out
there
and
how
much
does
that
cost
and
then
how
can
we
leverage
the
arc
of
dollars
and
then
use
this
ongoing
funding?
Other
counties
have
done
it
summit
county
has
done
it.
Larimer
county
has
done
it.
They've
done
an
amazing
job,
they're,
building
a
beautiful
new
facility
with
beds
and
with
treatment
and
can
be
used
with
their
jail
programs.
F
They
have
it
all
coordinated
and
I
what
they're
doing
is
is
really
forward
thinking
and
they
would
love
to
come
and
help
us
here
in
boulder
county.
Do
something
similar
that
you
know
is
tailored
to
our
needs
here.
F
And
then,
just
briefly
in
2023,
I
mean
we're
going
to
continue
to
work
on
this
competency
problem
where
we
have
people
stacked
up
in
jail.
We're
looking
at
ways
to
improve
medication-assisted
treatment
for
people
who
have
substance,
misuse
disorder,
we're
talking
about
expanding
the
workforce
by
expanding
the
num,
the
types
of
professionals
who
can
prescribe
psychotic.
F
Ahead,
working
on
getting
some
information
out
of
our
all
payer
claims
database,
so
that
we
can
understand
how
much
money
we're
spending
on
short
term
hospital
stays,
whether
somebody
on
medicaid
gets
to
stay
longer
or
shorter
than
somebody
on
private
insurance.
What's
the
readmission
rate
across
this
system
and
get
the
information
that
we
need
so
that
we
can
make
these
hospital
states
more.
F
And
more
and
that's
it
if
you
all
have
questions.
Thank
you
for
indulging
me.
C
Thank
you
appreciate
you
being
here
and
presenting
and
listening
to
the
the
previous
presentations
by
everybody
thanks
to
all
the
staff.
That's
here
supporting
this
work,
and
so
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we
are
keeping
our
time
and-
and
I
I
do
want
to
acknowledge-
that
jeff
moline
from
boulder
county
has
joined
us
to
talk
about
that
next
item,
and
I
also
don't
want
to
rush
through
this
conversation
and
the
dialogue.
So
what
questions
do
we
have
ideas?
C
D
I
think
the
only
suggestion
I
would
bring
is,
if
we're
51st
in
the
country,
let's
look
at
what
the
top
five
or
six
are,
and
what
the
distinctions
are
between
them
and
us
or
even
middle
ground
and
say
what
is
that
distinction
and
have
conversations
with
those
legislative
members
from
those
states
say?
What
did
you
do.
F
Yeah,
I
totally
agree
with
you
and
you
know
we
did
also
it's
not
in
this
presentation.
Probably
it
should
be.
We
stood
up
this
behavioral
health
administration
and
that
came
out
of
the
work
of
the
previous
task
force
and
that's
part
of
what
they're
doing
is
looking
at
what
are
the
best
models
around
the
country,
and
how
can
we
adjust
the
way
that
we're
structured,
because
there
are
some
really
big
structural
problems
that
lead
to
to
all
these
gaps
in
our
system?
F
We
have
this
health
care
policy
and
financing
which
manages
all
the
medicaid
dollars.
We
have
other
funding
sources
from
from
state
funds.
F
We
have
these
regional
accountability
entities
that
we
have
seven
of
those
across
the
state,
and
then
we
have
our
17
community
mental
health
centers
and
the
interaction
and
the
intersection
of
all
those
organizations
must
not
be
working
as
well
as
it
could,
because
I
know
you're
all
hearing
the
frustrations
of
people
around
this,
the
state
who
can't
get
the
care
they
need
from
their
community
mental
health
center
and
part
of
that
is
because
the
community
mental
health
center
can't
get
the
reimbursement
that
they
need
from
the
ray,
and
part
of
that
is
because
the
ray
isn't
getting
enough
funding
from
health
care
policy
and
financing
so,
and
they
are
looking
at
all
of
that,
and
they
are
looking
at
all
the
ways
that
we
allocate
the
medicaid
dollars
so
on
the
behavioral.
F
F
But
but
I
will
just
go
back
to
this-
I
think
a
lot
of
local
governments,
counties
and
like
summit
county
is
a
great
example.
They
just
decided
okay,
this
community
mental
health
center
that
we
have
here
is
this
is
not
working
for
us,
so
we're
just
going
to
go
it
alone,
we're
going
to
pass
this
tax
and
then
we're
gonna.
We're
gonna
stand
up
the
system
that
we
think
works
for
us
and
I
visited
their
jail
recently.
F
They
have
all
staff
in
their
jail.
All
the
medical
and
mental
health
staff
in
their
jail
are
hired
and
employed
by
their
county,
jail
and
they're.
F
Just
doing
amazing
things
with
the
people
that
they
have
and
with
getting
them
into
services
and
making
sure
that
when
they
leave
jail,
they
have
supports,
they
have
housing,
they
have
their
back
on
their
medicaid,
all
those
kinds
of
things
that
we
could
try
to
mandate
at
the
state
level
and
believe
me,
I'd
love
to
try
but
they're
just
doing
it,
because
it's
the
right
thing
to
do
and
because
they
know
it
will
save
the
money
in
the
long
run.
Q
Q
I
think
the
struggle
we're
having
in
broomfield
just
to
be
completely
honest,
is
how
do
we
locally
build
something
in
a
system?
At
the
same
time,
the
system
systems
being
built
at
the
state
and
making
sure
their
alignment
so
things
I'm
hearing
from
the
behavioral
health
administration
is
they're
going
to
be
going
to
a
bso
model
and
we're
still
not
fully
sure
what
that's
going
to
look
like
who's
going
to
be
then
contracted
to
do
that.
F
Yeah,
I
and
I
totally
appreciate
that,
and
I
do
think
a
lot
of
things
are
in
flux,
but
one
thing
that's
happening
right
now
is
that
this
money
is
available
and
it's
only
going
to
be
available
one
time,
and
so
I
think,
if
you
could
envision
what
are
all
the
the
sort
of
one-time
needs
like
let's
say
you
wanted
to
set
up
a
fully
non-police
response
system,
so
I
like
what
they
have
in
denver
a
star
program
as
opposed
to
a
co-responder
program.
What
do
you
need
for
that?
You
need
some
vans.
F
F
You
know
you're
gonna,
need
that
upfront,
money
and
then
you're
gonna
need
to
fund
the
ongoing
costs,
and
I
get
the
difficulty
with
the
co-responder
model
or
with
this
star
program
model
that
you
don't
want
people
who
are
not
busy
doing
doing
this
work.
So
you
don't
you
don't
want
to
have
too
many
people,
but
also
you
need
to
have
somebody
who
is
there
to
do
these
responses
all
the
time
in
order
for
that
to
really
be
effective.
F
So
I
know
that
doesn't
address
all
of
your
questions,
but
but
frankly,
I
would
be
surprised
if
the
new
system
doesn't
quite
closely
resemble
the
current
system.
There
might
be
some
subtle
differences,
but
it's
not
going
to
be
some
radical
change.
We
are
still
going
to
have
community
mental
health
centers.
F
They
are
going
to
be
the
more
than
likely
the
entity.
That
is,
this
serve
the
safety
net
provider
and
we
are
still
going
to
have
regional
accountability
entities,
and
I
don't
expect
that
to
change,
but
some
of
the
ways
they
interact
might
change.
B
F
Okay,
well,
thank
you
guys
so
much
and
I
really
appreciate
hearing
what
all
of
you
are
doing
and
I
hope
you'll
all
reach
out,
especially
if
you
have
you
know,
if
you
have
legislative
priorities,
I'd
love
to
hear
what
they
are
I'd,
love
to
help
you
get
those
things
done
and
I'm
just
gonna
put
in
another
pitch
for
I
was
really
excited
to
come
here
tonight,
because
I
want
to
see
all
of
you
work
together
to
come
up
with
what
is
the
gold
star
solution
for
boulder
county?
F
We
are
one
of
the
wealthiest
counties
in
the
state
if
we
can't
and
we're
progressive
we're
forward,
thinking
we're
smart.
We
have
some
of
the
smartest
people
in
the
world
that
live
here
in
boulder.
So
let
us
all
work
together
and
bring
all
this
talent
that
we
have
together
and
really
design
the
best
system
out
there.
Let's
be
the
best.
F
C
C
Great,
thank
you
so
much.
Thank
you.
Thanks
bye,
all
right
and
I
want
to
we're
going
to
move
to.
So
definitely,
if
you
don't
mind
just
doing
a
quick
introduction,
because
what
you
missed
at
the
beginning
was
everybody
gets
to
introduce
themselves,
they
don't
want
to
be.
They
were
missed
not
to
give
you
that
opportunity
and
meanwhile,
in
the
background,
jeff
has
graciously
offered
to
come
back
in
october
and
and
share
the
presentation,
but
go
ahead
with
your
introduction.
W
Hi
everyone
good
evening,
thanks
for
your
service,
by
the
way
for
all
from
all
of
the
municipalities,
so
I'm
a
senior
planner
with
our
parks
and
open
space
department
and
was
going
to
talk
to
you
this
evening
about
our
open
space
and
trail
request
process
that
we
have
with
all
of
the
municipalities,
but
seeing
seeing
the
the
important
work
that
you
guys
are
discussing
today.
W
We're
thinking
that
maybe
october
would
be
a
a
better
fit
for
that
discussion
since
you're
running
a
little
short
on
time
and
and
so
anyway,
I'm
I'm
hoping
that
will
work
out
with
you
all
and
we'll
keep
both
we're
in
touch
with
all
the
open
space,
staffs
at
all
the
municipalities
and
and
continue
to
work
with
them.
So
from
the
staff
side.
I
don't
think
it's
a
problem,
but
just
wanted
to
express
appreciation
and
look
forward
to
seeing
you
in
a
couple
months.
C
C
Going
to
we're
going
to
move
to
our
regional
local
wage,
update
with
council
member
phil,
kurtz
and
we've
got
about
20
minutes,
and
I
apologize
that
we
missed
our
break
tonight.
What
we
don't
do
is
go
over
so
so
be
prepared
everybody
and
then,
if,
if
we
have
a
couple
minutes
we'll
go
around
and
just
share
any
items
of
important
communities.
But
thank
you.
E
So,
let's
see,
we've
been
working
on
kind
of
coming
up
with
an
outreach
and
engagement
plan
for
minimum
wage
and
talking
to
our
communities,
sort
of
about
what
that
might
mean
or
what
that
might
look
like
one
of
the
things
that
our
last
meeting,
I
think
has
made
really
clear,
is
sort
of
the
the
importance
of
having
a
really
robust
discussion
that
is
very
thoughtful.
So
one
of
the
things
we're
looking
at
is
having
the
minimum
wage
working
group
bring
forward
presentations.
E
That,
then,
could
be
that
then
the
municipalities
could
opt
to
have
be
brought
to
their
communities.
So
we'd
kind
of
like
have
an
introductory
presentation
of
you,
know
looking
at,
have
something
having
someone
from
the
division
of
labor
standards
and
statistics.
Talk
about
what
this
minimum
wage
ordinance
requirements
are.
E
You
know
what
they've
found
from
denver's
implementation
talking
about
sustained
self-sustaining
wage
findings
from
the
center
on
the
lawn
policy
and
also
looking
at
work
force,
wage
and
trends,
and
so
the
idea
was
that
we
would
get
that
group
of
presenters
together
to
kind
of
give
a
presentation
that
you
know
anyone
from
the
consortium,
or
I
mean
anyone
else,
could
join
and
then
have
the
ability
for
municipalities
to
kind
of
bring
that
in
the
way.
E
That
makes
sense
for
them
to
bring
that
presentation
or
presenters
to
their
communities,
and
we
would
do
a
couple
right
now
we're
thinking
we
do
a
couple
of
cycles
of
that.
So
there
would
be
sort
of
that
introductory
section
and
then
a
second
set
that
was
around
you
know
bringing
in
county
level.
You
know,
probably.
First
we
look
at
stakeholders
that
are
regional,
like
afl-cio
northeast
chamber
alliance.
E
Some
of
these
you
know
naacp
colorado
people's
lines,
bringing
a
lot
of
these
groups
that
are
interested
in
this
topic
together
to
then
sort
of
have
like
a
next
round
of
you
know
what
this
might
look
like
and
then
similarly
kind
of
doing
another
version
of
that
in
our
communities
with
more
local
stakeholders
so
kind
of
this
cyclical
process.
Going
is
what
we're
looking
at
right
now
and
as
we
sort
of
talk
through
this,
I
think
it
made
sense
that
we're
not
in
order
to
do
a
really
robust
process
like
that.
E
E
And
I,
and
as
we
talked
about
it
more,
it
made
sense
that
we
really
want
to
do
it
that
way
to
to
sort
of
give
the
communities
time
to
coalesce
around
what
makes
sense
collectively
and
to
try
and
get
the
biggest
buy-in
possible.
I
think
that
you
know
our
business
community
and
as
well
as
you
know,
people
who
will
be
effect.
Who
are
you
know,
meeting
this
minimum
wage
who
are
affected
by
this
wage
rate?
E
You
know
really
trying
to
make
sure
that
we
have
the
broadest
most
equal
coverage
is
really
beneficial
to
everyone,
so
because
of
that,
we're
kind
of
looking
at
lengthening
the
process
a
little
bit,
so
it
would
go
beyond
this
year
and
and
doing
sort
of
this
multi-staged
engagement
plan,
and
so
one
of
the
things
I
just
wanted
to
check
in
with
everyone
on
is
you
know
some
of
the
issues
with
like?
Are
we
expecting
a
lot
of
turnover
on
the
consortium?
E
Are
people
like
staying
on
for
more
than
one
year,
I'm
just
kind
of
trying
to
get
a
feeling
of
continuity
and
what
concerns
people
might
have
about
shifting
to
a
later
timeline
or
if
there
are
any
concerns
around
the
consortium,
the
working
group
sort
of
taking
the
lead
and
setting
up
some
of
these
presentations.
That
would
then
be
brought
to
these
communities.
B
G
Thank
you.
Thank
you
for
all
your
work
on.
This
really
appreciate
it
and,
from
my
perspective
I
think
taking
longer
is
a
great
idea.
You
know
I
I
brought
this
to
the
board
of
trustees
and
there
was
zero
interest
in
pursuing
it.
For
reasons
that
I
think
I
told
you
which
is,
you
know,
we're
we're
small,
we're
a
seasonal
town,
you
know,
but
I
think
that
the
more
information
people
have
the
better
and
folks
might
change
their
minds
once
they
learn
more.
G
So
I
I
think
it's
terrific
and
I'm
so
grateful
for
this
working
group.
So
thank
you.
D
I
echo
mayor
rogan
in
regards
to
that
I
think
lauren
you
follow
hard
work.
Doing
might
as
well
take
the
time
to
do
it,
complete
and
thorough
job
of
it.
I
you
know
from
a
political
perspective
or
anything
like
that.
All
I
know
is
for
for
erie
we
have
home
rule,
that's
on
our
docket,
that's
something
that's
coming
up.
D
You
know
that
that's
going
to
be
a
spend,
considerable
spend
for
us,
and
we
had
a
lengthy
discussion
about
it
last
week
in
our
meeting
that
went
longer
than
we
we
all
thought
it
would
and
but
but
that's
one
of
the
things
and
then
some
other
budget
items
that
are
coming
up
that
priority.
So
I
think
something
like
this
is
important
because
it
does
speak
to
the
housing
affordability
issue.
D
What
we're
trying
to
do
in
areas
we're
trying
to
get
get
that
off
the
ground,
because
we
want
to
have
people
who
work
in
erie
live
in
erie
and
if
your
average
price
of
a
home
is
six
hundred
thousand
dollars,
that's
not
going
to
cut
it,
and
so
we
we
are
intentional
with
that.
So
I
think
something
like
that:
go
through
it
and
take
your
time.
T
H
Be
working
working
through
and
and
coming
solutions
on
again
elephant
in
the
room,
superior
marshall
fire
we
are
hearing
from
our
residents
right
now
is
that
anything
that
takes
our
attention
away
from
our
recovery
and
rebuilding
effort
is
something
that
we
should
not
be
focusing
on.
So
my
guess
is
for
the
next
one
to
three
years.
H
Are
going
to
be
a
hard
sell
to
our
our
residents,
so
just
just
planting
a
seed
for
for
where
our
focus
will
likely
be
for
the
next
couple
of
years.
At
least.
C
So,
just
to
be
clear,
we
talked
a
little
bit
about
trying
to
move
this
because
there's
a
january
one
date
that
we
would
be
working
on.
So
it's
either
right
now
and
january
january
of
2023,
or
give
it
this
year,
which
I
heard
council
member
folker
say,
extend
that
and
then
that
would
be
january
2024.
So
that's
we
need
to
get
a
pulse
from
this
group.
Go
ahead.
Councilmember,
martin,
yeah.
K
I'm
sorry
to
take
people
off
topic.
I
have
been
out
of
state
with
a
family
emergency
for
the
last
five
weeks
and
mayor
peck
has
just
left
for
a
family
vacation
today,
so
she
and
I
didn't
intersect
on
our
way
out
and
in
I
had
not.
I
had
wanted
to
be
involved
with
this
effort,
but
felt
that
I
didn't
have
the
bandwidth
and
she
and
I
talked
about
her
finding
someone
else
of
to
represent
longmont,
but
I
don't
know
whether
she
did
because
we
had
no
intersection
so
lauren.
E
Yeah,
so
susie
was
able
to
make
the
last
the
meeting
that
we
had
with
the
working
group
and.
E
Devon,
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong,
but
I
kind
of
felt
like
you
know
the
two
of
you
were
actually
part
of
sort
of
this,
this
modification
to
this
proposal
and
I
think,
made
a
really
strong
argument
for
how
this
made
sense
to
to
to
move
a
little
more
slowly
and
thoughtfully
and
intentionally
with
how
we
bring
this
forward.
C
Great
and
just
by
note
of
for
awareness,
trustee
brown
who's
also
been
part
of
that
working
group
in
and
out
and
expressed
some
real
interest
message
and
was
unable
to
join
us
this
evening.
Didn't
give
me
a
vote,
yes
or
no,
because
we
got
we
weren't
at
this
point
of
the
meeting.
But
just
so
folks
don't
know
there
was
involvement.
There
is
still
interest,
but
but
that's
why
it
was
not
represented.
In
this
conversation.
B
A
If
I
ask
a
question,
so
trustee
wish,
just
to
clarify
a
little
bit,
certainly
understand
the
marshall
fire
focus
and
council
member
full
courts.
You
can
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong,
but
one
one
real
value.
I
see
as
a
working
group
in
this
process
could
be
that,
for
for
this
is
a
good
example.
Perhaps
the
more
resource
communities
might
be
able
to
support
work
that
could
then
be
taken
up
by
the
smaller
communities.
A
So
I
guess
what
I'm
trying
to
say
is:
if,
if
there
was
the
ability
for
superior
to
engage
with
this
work,
that
was
more
of
a
lighter
lift,
then
you
might
typically
have
to
put
into
an
initiative
given
the
pressures
you're
you're
facing
with
marshall
fire
recovery.
Do
you
do
you
think
the
town
board
might
be
interested
in
something
like
that
where
you
might
be
able
to?
I
don't
want
to
say
ride
to
coattails.
That
seems
a
little
strange,
but
just
be
able
to
collectively
work
with
the
other
consortium.
A
Members
on
this
in
a
way
that
might
not
be
requires
so
much
bandwidth,
bandwidth
from
your
board
and
staff.
E
E
H
So
I
I'll
preface
everything
with
it's
hard
to
speak
for
the
board
at
this
moment,
because
we
are
about
to
undergo
a
huge
transition.
We
have
a
mayor
who
is
rolling
off
and
we
have
four
open
trustee
spots
in
november,
so
we
are
going
to
look
incredibly
different
as
a
board
come
november.
I'm
not
gonna
remain
on
the
board,
so
I'll
be
gone,
and
some
of
my
colleagues
will
as
well.
H
H
H
I
honestly
think
if
we
talk
six
months
or
12
months
from
now
and
we've
seen
measurable
growth
and
there's
a
new
board
in
place,
then
it
could
be
a
different
conversation.
But
if
I
were
to
go
back
at
my
next
board
meeting
and
try
to
pitch
any
anything
is
a
new
initiative.
No
matter
what
the
lift
is,
it's
going
to
be
a
hard
sell.
C
So
we
are
we're
about
to
be
out
of
time,
so
I
just
want
to
check
in
with
you,
council,
member
folk
arts,
if
you've
gotten
at
least
some
of
the
initial
information
that
will
help
you
and
I'd
love
to
have
you
put
your
contact
information
in
the
chat
just
in
case
there's
somebody
else
here
that
wants
to
join
in
on
that
study
group,
but
I
I
heard
a
decision
just
from
a
number
standpoint
of
this
consortium
group
saying
yes
on,
focusing
on
2024
versus
2023..
C
G
Yeah,
it's
it's
a
super
fun
event.
It's
the
lion's
hoot
nanny,
I'll,
put
the
link
in
the
chat.
Although
I'm
I
apologize
in
advance,
it's
a
facebook
link,
but
it's
a
fundraiser
for
leaf
and
it's
down
at
river
bend
by
the
river
commissioner
lochiming
came
last
year
and
gave
it
rave
reviews.
So
it's
august
28th,
I
think
from
two
to
six
and
I'll,
just
pop
that
link
in
the
chat
come
see
us.
B
H
I'll
give
a
quick
plug
for
the
superior
chili
and
beer
fest,
which
is
september
17th,
and
it
is
just
fantastic.
It's
a
afternoon
event
and
it's
it's
definitely
our
our
sparkling
type
event
of
the
year,
and
I
recommend
anybody
who
has.
I
S
Yeah,
so
this
isn't
necessarily
an
event
that's
coming
up.
It
was
a
performance
that
I
just
saw
today
by
the
butterfly
effect
theater
company
betsy
who's
out
of
boulder,
and
they
presented
a
truck
performance
of
amelia's,
big
idea,
which
is
all
about
local
government
and
getting
big
ideas
through
the
red
tape
through
the
process
and
what
that
takes,
and
what
that
looks
like
phenomenal
performance,
somebody
that
is
very
much
engaged
in
local
in
well
local
theater,
but,
of
course,
local
government
just
loved
it.
It
was
a
great
performance.
S
If
you
get
it
the
chance
to
see
that,
please
do.
I
think
they
are
going
to
be
wrapping
up
their
truck
series,
but
hopefully
they
will.
This
will
be
a
performance
that
they
will
revive
in
the
near
future.
Please
do
go
see
it
it's.
It's
phenomenal.
D
Yeah,

we
have
a
unique
event:

coming
up
on
august
13th,
it's
called
touch

truck

so
for
all
those
little
kiddos
and
others
who
want
to
take
a
look
at
different
kinds
of
trucks
and

them
and
see
them,
and
all
that
sort
of
stuff.
That's
