From YouTube: Board of Health Meeting March 13, 2023
A
On
vacation
this
week
and
we
are
continuing
to
meet
in
a
hybrid
fashion,
while
staff
works
on
the
logistics
for
in-person
meeting
fully.
So
thanks,
everyone
for
joining
us
and
first
item
on
the
agenda
is
public
comments
and
before
we
welcome
our
public
comments,
I
just
want
to
read
a
statement
about
level
comments.
The
Board
of
Health
provides
the
opportunity
for
the
public
to
share
their
viewpoints
and
opinion
on
public
health
matters.
A
C
Thanks
much
back
again,
I
hope,
I
hope
you
guys
are
able
to
figure
out
the
in-person
meeting
sometime
in
2023
here
it's
kind
of
the
ongoing
comedy.
Now
they
can't
blame
it
on
covid
anyways
just
trying
to
connect.
It
obviously
be
nice
to
be
in
person
rather
than
on
Zoom
I.
Do
enough
of
these
meetings
on
that.
On
that
note,
you
know
you
failed
the
community
Boulder
County
Public
Health,
you
guys
LED
with
one
sole
focus
and
that
was
utterly
misguided
and
I
think
we're
seeing
that
come
to
effect.
C
Now
you
forced
you
forced
many
people
out
of
the
Woodworks
that
would
have
been
fine
just
being
not
being
on
their
own
and
being
left
to
their
own
vices,
but
unfortunately,
it's
through
kind
of
the
charade
of
things
that
you
imposed
on
the
community,
whether
it
was
lockdowns
whether
it
was
masks
whether
it
was
just
the
inability
to
discern
risk
across
age
groups
or
across
different.
You
know,
Health
groupings,
those
that
are
healthy
versus
those
that
are
unhealthy.
So
it's
just
an
utter
mess.
C
So
I'm
here
to
just
continually
remind
you,
you
let
the
community
down
you,
you
forced
a
lot
of
unnecessary
measures
that
measures
that
were
clearly
not
justified
now,
there's
nothing
quantifiable,
viable
that
points
to
them
being
effective
and
I.
Think
you're,
seeing
this
whole
thing
fall
apart,
whether
you
look
to
Germany
whether
you
look
to
Matt
Hancock
in
the
U.S,
whether
you
look
to
Austria
and
what's
happening
there,
whether
you
look
to
Art
and
stepping
down
in
New
Zealand
one.
C
You
know
you
you
you,
you
cast
these
people
that
didn't
follow
your
complete
pharmaceutical
schedule
as
outcasts
and
they're
ignorant,
and
they
must
not
know
what
they're
talking
about
per
your
own
study,
that
that
in
itself
is
just
diabolical
and
just
ignorance
at
its
at
its
finest
I.
Don't
think
that
I
found
a
more
Discerning
group
that
have
really
dived
into
the
data
all
the
way
around,
whether
it's
DOD,
CDC,
FDA
or
otherwise,
then
folks,
I've
spoken
with
so
up
to
that
effect.
C
I
welcome
the
opportunity
to
meet
you
in
person,
because
I
find
this
ineffective.
I
continue
to
engage
with
anyone.
I
can
around
the
community
very
vocal
I'm
in
marketing
myself,
so
outbound's
my
specialty
I
love
engaging
with
people,
I
love
chatting
with
them
and
you
can
guarantee
I'm
saying
the
opposite
of
whatever
your
messaging
is
vaccinate
your
dog
vaccinate,
your
pig
vaccinate,
your
kid
that
it's
just
a
bunch
of
nonsense.
You
you
led
paid
you
just
paid
for
by
the
pharmaceutical
companies.
I
think
you're,
seeing
the
Cracks
around
the
edges.
C
It'd
be
hard
to
ignore.
So
I
have
a
homework
assignment,
go
on
sub
stack
and
read:
Steve
Kirsch
read
the
Vigilant
Fox
read
El
Gato
Malo
the
bad
cat
in
Spanish
just
tap
in
and
get
a
different
perspective.
Read
their
viewpoints,
see
if
you
can
counter
what
they're
saying
I
I
encourage
you
not
to
live
in
the
state
of
ignorance,
because
there
were
no
other
views
shared
during
that
whole.
C
D
I
have
some
questions
for
the
Board
of
Health
regarding
the
article,
which
is
entitled
Boulder
County
targets,
latinos
with
fear
campaign
to
get
parents
to
vaccinate
young
kids
for
covid
that
was
published
in
the
defender,
Children's
Health
defense.
This
is
an
organization
run
by
Robert,
F
Kennedy
Jr.
My
first
question
is:
why
did
it
take
so
long
for
the
novax
Mandate
group
to
receive
the
information
they
requested?
My
second
question
is:
why
were
they
being
charged
so
much
to
receive
this
information?
D
Also
how
much
money
was
paid
to
go
dot
the
creative
consultancy
company
for
them
to
advertise
for
you,
I
find
the
connection
being
made
between
wombats
Square,
poop,
marking
their
territory
and
humans
and
vaccines.
Very
strange,
bizarre
and,
quite
frankly,
disgusting
I
also
believe
that
using
video
games
in
this
messaging
is
inappropriate.
Do
you
have
data
that
show
Latinos,
don't
know
how
and
where
to
get
coveted
vaccines.
I
wonder
if
many
Latinos
find
it
insulting
that
you
suggest
they
don't
know
how
to
access
codes
of
vaccines.
By
now.
D
Is
there
anyone
on
the
planet
who
really
does
not
know
how
to
receive
covet
injections?
You
may
not
like
someone's
decision
to
not
get
vaccinated,
but
that
is
their
decision.
Not
yours
is
the
Board
of
Health
willing
to
accept
no
for
an
answer.
Many
people
don't
want
covered
shots
because
they
are
not
long-term
safety
tested
and
they
were
rushed
to
Market.
There
was
also
a
lack
of
safety
data
to
justify
giving
these
vaccines
to
children,
and
many
people
know
that
copen
injections
are
not
safe
and
they
are
special.
They
are
especially
unsafe
for
children.
D
Many
people
regret
taking
the
kobit
shots
because
they
have
had
serious
adverse
reactions.
Many
who
have
taken
them
are
now
worried
that
they
will
develop
serious
health
problems
in
the
future.
So
because
of
this,
lots
of
people
have
regrets
about
ever
taking
the
coveted
needles
in
the
first
place
and
many
wished
they
had
known
all
about.
D
You
know
all
this.
The
serious
side
effects
and
dangers
of
these
vaccines
before
they
ever
took
them
so
I
think
the
Board
of
Health
should
stop
pushing
coveted
vaccines,
especially
on
children.
Coveted
vaccines
are
not
safe,
they're,
not
effective.
There's
much
information
out
there
to
support
this,
and
one
just
has
to
look
theirs,
which
you're,
probably
familiar
with
the
government
vaccine
adverse
event.
Reporting
system
is
a
good
place
to
start.
I
would
also
like
to
recommend
the
book
dissolving
Illusions
by
Dr
Suzanne,
Humphries
disease
vaccines
and
the
Forgotten
history
seconds.
D
This
book
is
an
excellent
resource
into
the
history
of
activology,
especially
for
the
Board
of
Health
and
the
people
who
work
at
Godot
because,
as
Godot
States,
we
likely
don't
have
firm
answers
on
the
nuances
of
the
science
behind
Beyond
children's
vaccinations.
I
hope
some
of
you
will
consider
looking
into
this
book.
Thank
you.
G
F
I
here
we
are
again
parents.
You
know
objecting
to
recommendations
on
health,
with
a
distinct
feeling
that
the
Board
of
Health,
like
the
Boulder
Valley
School
District
board,
doesn't
really
care
what
parents
think
or
have
any
give
any
Credence
to
any
input
from
health
professionals,
Physicians
and
scientists
as
you've
received
over
the
last
three
years,
when
I've
testified
at
the
State
Assembly,
for
example,
there
is
an
opportunity
for
dialogue,
which
is
at
least
gives
you
folks
a
chance
to
doing
your
job.
F
Well,
if
there
is
actual
dialogue
and
having
engagement
with
the
community
whose
policies
you
affect.
So
you
know
the
fact
that
there's
that
dialogue
is
banned
and
there's
no
real
way
to
interact
with
folks
you,
your
decisions
have
an
impact
on
really
kind
of
guarantees
that
it's
not
going
to
go
well,
and
that's
certainly
been
true
over
the
last
three
years
and
I'm
really
concerned
about
this
propaganda.
F
Firm,
Gadot,
not
really
being
much
concerned
about
Children's,
Health
and
and
admitting
that
they're
not
really
aware
of
the
evidence,
but
they're,
just
marketing
vaccines-
and
you
know-
has
have
you
folks
done
an
actual
benefit
analysis.
In
other
words,
how
what
are
the
outcomes
in
this
less
vaccinated
Community?
Are
they
actually
sicker?
Are
they
actually
healthier?
Can
you
have
you
even
looked
at
that?
So
it
appears
that
your
concern
and
I've
been.
F
You
know,
teaching
bioethics
for
over
the
last
27
years
to
thousands
of
health
professionals
and
so
that
the
whole
informed
consent
ethic
seems
to
have
been
abandoned
where
people
are
not
fully
informed
of
the
risks
that's
hold
of
the
potential
upside,
but
not
of
the
risk
of
these
experimental
injections.
All
remember
all
masks
and
injections
for
are
experimental.
F
Federal
law
prohibits
the
mandating
of
any
experimental
measure,
and
so
you
know
it's
a
shame
that
it
appears
to
us
that
you're
in
deep
denial
of
the
evidence
that
clearly
indicates
that
the
covet
injections
do
not
prevent
infection.
They
do
not
prevent
transmission
and
carry
serious
risk
of
injury
and
they're
still
experimental.
There
are
no
FDA
approved
injections
available
in
the
United
States
at
this
moment
and
according
to
CDC,
just
as
one
of
dozens
of
examples
is
that
49
of
children
from
Age
5
to
11,
see
just
school
age.
F
H
I
Thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
tonight.
My
name
is
Aaron
meschke
and
I
live
in
Boulder
I
spend
a
lot
of
time
following
legislation
at
the
state,
capitol
and
different
things
happening
with
the
Boulder
County
Commissioner's
Office,
but
have
not
kept
up
with
the
Board
of
Health
meetings
after
spending
a
large
chunk
of
today
catching
up
on
past
meetings
and
public
comments.
I
I
have
a
number
of
issues
I
want
to
address,
but
we'll
have
to
pick
only
two
because
of
the
time
limit
you
may
only
hear
regularly
from
Carolyn
and
Ryan,
but
there
are
many
others
who
agree
with
their
monthly
testimonies.
I
was
aware
that
bcph
and
the
Board
of
Health
were
targeting
minority
populations
for
coveted
vaccines
last
summer
and
fall
and
had
seen
a
potential
for
research
about
how
to
persuade
Skeptics,
particularly
Hispanic
families,
to
give
their
kids
coveted
shots.
This
course
of
action
disgusted
me,
but
I
have
been
busy
with
many
other
things.
I
So
I
wasn't
following
this
as
it
went
along
with
coral
requests,
finally
fulfilled
for
the
novax
mandates
group
and
the
subsequent
article
done
by
Children's
Health
defense
I
felt
it
necessary
to
call
out
the
actions
of
bcph
and
the
Board
of
Health,
as
Miss
bazinski
did
during
February
public
comment.
This
initiative
wasn't
about
Equity
or
equal
access
to
some
life-saving
medicine.
It
was,
in
fact
the
purposeful
targeting
of
a
minority
group
to
be
part
of
an
experiment.
I
You
think
you
know
better
than
the
Hispanics
in
Boulder
County,
because
they
aren't
choosing
your
prescribed
treatment
but
I
think
any
family,
black
brown
or
white,
who
chooses
to
abstain
from
this
coveted
injection
experiment
is
making
the
more
knowledgeable
Choice.
It
is
incredibly
racist
for
a
group
of
white
privileged
Boulder
rights,
no
matter
what
your
training
and
experience
to
do,
research
into
how
to
manipulate
a
minority
group
into
doing
what
you
want
them
to
do.
The
science
does
not
now
and
has
not
ever
supported
the
vaccination
of
children
against
covid.
I
It's
time
to
drop
all
the
talk
of
pushing
vaccines
and
boosters
for
anyone,
including
minorities
and
the
elderly.
These
shots
aren't
helping
the
more
time
elapses.
The
more
harm
and
excess
death
is
seen
in
their
wake.
This
must
stop.
The
other
thing
I
want
to
take
time
to
address
is
the
online
meeting
situation.
I
saw
that
the
board
was
meeting
in
person
again
so
I
was
shocked
to
find
out.
My
public
testimony
this
evening
would
be
still
be
virtual,
starting
in
April
CD
phe
will
begin
meeting
in
person
again.
I
They
did
not
agree
to
do
this
willingly
as
they
should
have,
but
after
much
petitioning
from
the
Colorado
Health
Choice
Alliance
using
regulations
in
the
smart
act,
cdphe
finally
had
to
agree
to
go
back
to
in-person
meetings,
so
they
were
in
compliance
with
the
law.
You,
as
the
Board
of
Health,
should
initiate
this
process
voluntarily
and
immediately
or
concern
citizens
will
push
to
regain
this
necessary
public
format.
I
There
are
many
other
things
to
address
like
the
involvement
of
bcph
and
legislative
matters,
the
creation
of
new
offices
for
control
that
have
little
to
nothing
to
do
with
health
and
the
position
of
bcph
and
the
Board
of
Health
to
keep
clinging
to
defunct
interventions,
Bad
disproven,
Medicine
and
so-called
research.
A
true
scientist
must
always
question
what
they
see
and
be
willing
to
throw
out
all
old
hypotheses
if
they
are
wrong.
I
H
Okay,
can
you
hear
me
we
can
thank
you,
okay,
great
okay,
hi.
My
name
is
Marty
Hopper
and
I
live
in
Boulder
and
I'm
speaking
tonight.
As
a
follow-up
to
that
to
the
Godot
Communications
report
on
the
focus
groups,
I
would
like
to
urge
Boulder,
County
Public
Health
to
end
the
project
and
not
create
an
advertising
campaign
targeting
vaccine
hesitant
parents
to
inject
their
young
children
with
the
coveted
shots.
H
The
reason
is
that
the
risk
benefit
ratio
of
giving
covet
shots
to
young
children
weighs
completely
on
the
risk
side
of
the
equation.
The
reasons
are,
first
of
all,
as
we
know,
covid
is
not
a
childhood
illness.
We've
known
from
the
beginning
that
coveted
primarily
affects
older
adults.
Specifically
children
and
teens
have
a
99.997
survival
rate
from
the
virus.
H
Secondly,
at
this
point
covet
is
endemic
programs.
Targeting
vaccine
has
an
appearance
but
Boulder
County
out
of
step
with
the
broader
National
Trend
to
abandon
mandates
and
vaccine
recommendations
for
young
people.
Thirdly,
to
date,
the
number
of
coveted
vaccine
injuries
reported
to
virus
for
children
alone
is
63
561..
This
includes
181
deaths,
588
permanent
disabilities,
over
4,
700
children,
hospitalized
and
ten
thousand
seven
hundred
not
recovered
from
these
shots,
and
a
Harvard
study
in
2011
found
that
fewer.
Then
one
percent
of
vaccine
Adverse
Events
are
reported
to
veers.
H
Therefore,
by
definition,
there
is
no
long-term
safety
data
for
these
injections
in
children
and
finally,
the
FDA,
as
you
have
heard,
has
authorized
coveted
vaccines
for
children
under
emergency
use.
Only
this
means
they
are
still
experimental.
The
fact
that
the
CDC
has
placed
experimental
injections
on
the
childhood
schedule
is,
in
my
view,
Criminal
I,
urge
you
I
urge
you
not
to
follow
in
their
footsteps,
steps
and
drop
any
plans
for
promoting
these
vaccines
among
young
children.
Thank
you.
H
J
A
A
J
Multiple
federal
agencies
and
programs
maintain
about
a
dozen
databases
to
track
the
safety
of
covet
vaccines.
The
information
for
most
of
the
databases
have
not
been
made
public,
in
other
words
their
secret
one
database.
The
v-safe
database
was
set
up
by
the
CDC
to
specifically
track
coveted
vaccine
injuries
kept
secret.
Until
recently,
it
was
only
made
public
after
a
year
and
a
half
of
foia
requests
and
subsequent
litigation
by
the
informed
consent.
J
They
found
that
the
vsafe
shows
that
7.7
percent
of
people
who
took
the
covered
shots
needed
medical
care
after
their
shots
and
another
25
percent
reported
they
were
unable
to
perform
normal
activities
and
or
miss
school
or
work.
These
are.
These
are
astonishing
figures.
I
I
just
want
to
repeat
that
7.7
percent
of
two
of
people
who
took
the
covid
shots
needed
medical
care
after
they're
shot
and
another
25
percent
reported
they
were
unable
to
perform
normal
activities
and
or
miss
school
or
work.
J
This
adds
up
to
32.7
percent,
who
were
seriously
negatively
impacted
after
one
or
more
covert
shots
for
an
infection
that
the
cdc's
own
data
shows
is
relatively
benign
for
most
people
in
most
age
groups.
These
statistics
should
have
caused
the
CDC
to
raise
immediate
alarms
about
this
product,
but
the
CDC
continues
to
this
day,
claiming
the
shots
are
safe
and
effective,
and
now
they
want
to
give
them
to
kids.
J
J
A
B
A
A
L
L
Thank
you.
So
this
is
a
conversation.
We've
been
having
with
a
group
called
bichick
which
is
Boulder,
County,
Health
and
tax
collaborative,
which
is
coordinated
by
the
the
wind
policy
group,
and
over
the
past
couple
of
months,
we've
been
looking
at
several
areas
of
impact
and
how
we
can
best
respond
to
Community
Health
you'll
notice.
That
b
Chic
includes
a
lot
of
our
health
care
providers
as
well
as
Community
Partners,
the
school
districts,
Community
Foundation
and
a
few
other
groups.
I
ran
the
program
for
like
10
years.
There
you
go.
L
Actually,
it
also
include
included
housing
stability
measures
it
at
one
point:
it
included
a
moratorium
on
evictions
when
the
Supreme
Court
rescinded
that
decision,
then
rental
supports
kicked
in
in
high
gear
to
prevent
people
from
losing
the
stability
that
housing
provides.
It
also
provided
food
Security
benefits
and
significantly
increased
food
and
nutrition
benefits.
L
A
L
L
L
So
this
is
not
a
quick
process.
It's
taking
a
lot
of
careful
Planning
by
an
awful
lot
of
community
members
to
make
sure
that
we
are
getting
the
message
out
and
that
we're
supporting
people
to
ensure
that
their
information
is
up
to
date
so
that
they
can
be
eligible
for
that
ex
parte
process.
And
if
not,
then
they
will
have
to
be
picked
up
on
the
back
end
to
with
a
more
burdensome
enrollment
process.
L
Next
slide
yeah,
so
income
impact
on
housing
stability,
so
this
includes
rental,
supports
homelessness
prevention
and
support
to
the
unhoused.
These
supports
started
in
March
of
2021,
largely
using
arpa
funding.
They
became
especially
important
after
the
Supreme
Court
struck
down
the
eviction
moratorium,
the
County's
emergency
rental
assistance
program
or
e-wrap
funds
are
expected
to
be
dispersed
fully
by
late
March,
so
we're
almost
through
all
of
those
rental
supports,
but
they
really
did
help
to
minimize
economic-based
evictions.
L
L
We
are
beginning
to
see
evictions
Rising
again
with
the
February
numbers
exceeding
pre-pandemic
rates
for
the
first
time
and
the
program
started
in
2021,
but
2022
actually
saw
a
pretty
significant.
It
was
kind
of
it
had
more
momentum
by
2022,
and
some
of
the
stresses
of
the
pandemic
were
really
beginning
to
be
felt
by
Pro
by
families.
So
in
2021
the
program
disbursed
about
4.7
million
dollars
to
947
households
and
in
2022
dispersed
about
11.7
million
dollars
to
1455
households.
L
Okay,
our
third
category
is
nutrition,
supports,
so
just
a
reminder
for
background
snap
and
Medicaid
largely
work
in
tandem
with
each
other.
Eligibility
for
one
often
is
connected
to
eligibility
for
the
other.
Snap
is
an
income-based
benefit
for
the
general
population.
It
has
a
lot
of
flexibility
on
what
the
food
options
are
WIC.
On
the
other
hand,
it
can
be.
You
can
be
eligible
for
WIC
on
top
of
snap.
L
It
serves
pregnant
and
postpartum,
Women
and
Infants
to
age.
Five
income
is
based
to
185
percent
of
the
poverty
level
and
Wick
and
Rollies
also
receive
nutritional
counseling,
a
guided
health
approach,
growth
measures,
breastfeeding
education
and
nutrition
education,
so,
as
of
January
23
Boulder
County
had
about
18
000
snap
enrollees
and
on
average,
with
the
stand
down
of
the
public
health
emergency,
snap
and
Rollies
will
receive
about
ninety
dollars
a
month.
L
Less
per
person,
which
is
pretty
significant,
360
dollars
for
a
family
of
four
and
especially
concerning
an
elderly
couple's
benefit,
would
drop
from
receiving
281
dollars
a
month
to
just
23
dollars
a
month,
which
is
profound.
Given
some
of
the
economic
challenges
facing
low-income
elderly
populations,
as
well
as
challenges
with
Transportation
or
connectivity.
E
L
So
I'll
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
WIC
2,
our
WIC
clients
are
largely
impact
impacted
through
their
Medicaid
Eligibility.
Those
two
pieces
are
tied
together
quite
often,
and
if
clients
are
not
in
the
auto
renewal
program
and
they
have
a
changed
address
or
information,
they
could
easily
lose
their
benefits.
Even
if
they
keep
WIC
benefits,
they
will
they're
projected
to
lose
an
extra
nine
to
eleven
dollars
a
month
for
kids
and
25
to
49
a
month
for
adults
at
the
end
of
September.
L
L
L
Okay.
So
what
are
we
doing
in
response
to
this
next
slide?
So
Boulder-
and
this
is
I-
want
to
be
clear
that
this
is
not
a
comprehensive
list.
This
is
a
list
that
we
could
put
together,
based
on
conversations
that
we've
had
with
Partners.
So
there
may
be
some
other
things
that
are
happening
in
different
departments:
different
municipalities,
Etc.
But
this
is
what
we
have
been
able
to
collect
to
date
in
terms
of
public
Health's
role
in
prevention
and
mitigation.
L
We
will,
of
course,
continue
to
follow
statutory
requirements
for
communicable
diseases,
including
providing
vaccinations
which
we
were
required
to
do
by
the
state,
and
we,
the
state,
will
also
continue
to
provide
mobile
vaccination
buses.
Our
coven
vaccine
clinics
will
be
integrated
into
our
usual
clinics.
We
will
stop
having
a
covid
specific
clinics,
but
we
will
begin
to
integrate,
offering
those
vaccinations
into
our
usual
childhood
vaccination
program.
Who's.
L
L
And
we
will,
as
I
mentioned,
the
state
will
stop
providing
oversight
of
long-term
care
facilities
and
that
responsibility
will
revert
back
to
local
public
health
agencies,
including
us,
where
we'll
be
focused
on
outbreaks,
and
those
most
of
risk
in
April.
Indira
will
be
here
too,
give
a
deeper
dive
on
what
our
next
iteration
of
the
intimacy
plan
is
with
a
lot
of
details
in
this
space.
L
L
Okay
in
terms
of
health
care
access,
we
have
some
amazing
Partners
in
this
space.
Hhs
Clinica
and
salute
and
ccha
are
all
working
on
data
Communications
and
Outreach
to
help
community
members
re-enroll
or
to
enroll
in
Medicaid
chip
plus
Medicare
employer
sponsored
insurance
and
insurance
through
the
exchanges.
L
Boulder
County
Area
on
aging
Area
Agency
on
Aging,
will
also
be
supporting
individuals
to
enroll
in
Medicare
and
Clinica
is
projecting
that
across
their
service
area,
which
includes,
but
is
it
limited
to
Boulder
County
that
they
will
be
able
to
help?
They
expect
to
help
about
23
000
individuals
enrolled,
which
is
significant?
L
L
Okay,
so
in
terms
of
housing
stability
again,
thank
you,
Lindy,
not
a
bcph
wheelhouse
area,
although
we
do
work
in
housing
in
some
spaces,
but
the
main
programs
are
really
funded
out
of
HHS,
including
the
continuous
Continuum
of
Care
Program,
which
is
focused
on
unhoused
transition
aged
Youth
and
families.
The
emergency
Solutions
grants
also
had
funded
focused
on
unhoused
individuals.
L
The
cadola
funded
next
steps,
homeless,
prevention,
collaboration
with
the
school
districts
and
increased
spending
for
housing
stabilization
program,
which
provides
flexibility
to
assist
households
that
have
potential
sustainability
for
staying
housed,
but
have
some
arrears.
So
it's
a
program
that
helps
them
pay
off
their
back
rent
or
their
back
mortgage
to
keep
them
in
their
houses
and
housing
stability.
L
Okay,
the
next
slide
on
nutrition
support,
so
our
frcs
and
food
banks
are
working
hard
to
look
for.
These
are
all
programs
that
are
looking
for
additional
funding
right
now.
The
statistics
on
the
impact
on
food
insecurity
and
nutrition
are
a
little
bit
scary
right
now.
So
all
programs
that
work
in
that
space
are
pretty
much
looking
for
additional
funding.
L
In
addition
to
the
frcs
and
the
food
banks,
our
heel
nutrition
programs,
which
Amelia
will
talk
about
more
in
just
a
minute,
include
the
double
up:
food
banks,
retail
and
Farmers
Market
programs,
the
WIC
Gap
Farmers
Market
program
and
the
fruit
and
veg
program,
as
well
as
our
WIC
program
at
bcph.
In
the
WIC
program,
we
are
working
to
enroll
Gap
Kids,
who
are
five-year-olds
that
are
delaying
kindergarten
to
age.
Six,
there's
a
little
ineligibility
space
in
the
fruit
and
veg
program,
but
food
and
fruit
and
veg
program
has
a
wait
list.
L
So
we're
not
sure
how
deep
we're
going
to
be
able
to
get
into
that
list.
Our
WIC
staff,
our
coaching
families,
to
ensure
that
information
in
the
Medicaid
system
is
up
to
date
if
they
are
eligible
for
auto
renewal,
which
will
also
help
them
get
into
a
continuation
of
quick
support,
and
our
WIC
coordinator
has
met
with
Joe
nagoos
and
Colorado
Senators.
To
advocate
for
funding
for
WIC.
L
Our
school
districts
are
looking
at
telemedicine
programs
applying
for
Grants.
We
are
looking
to
make
sure
that
what
they
are
developing
within
the
school
districts
also
connects
to
our
Public
Health
Improvement
plan
and
our
Universal.
We're
also
hoping
that
the
universal
home
visitation
program
that
was
launched
in
the
fall
will
be
able
to
provide
connectivity
to
some
of
the
supports
if
there's
funding
available.
L
So
that
families
that
are
losing
supports
will
kind
of
be
proactively
reconnected
to
them,
particularly
if
they
have
infants
in
the
house
that
Universal
revisitation
program
is
evidence-based
to
demonstrate
reduction
in
child
welfare
needs,
so
we're
hoping
to
track
whether
that
remains
the
case
in
these
strange
times
with
some
new
Dynamics
happening,
the
universal
home
visitation
program,
as
you
all
know,
it
launched
in
Boulder,
and
we
are
prepping
to
launch
in
Louisville
in
the
next
few
months
and
in
Longmont
by
early
summer.
We
hope.
L
So
those
would
be
opportunities
to
provide
telemedicine
support
to
children
in
the
schools
with
providers.
So
the
kids.
Actually,
you
know
we
don't
have
school-based
health
clinics
in
Boulder
County,
a
lot
of
counties.
Do
we
don't
have
that
here?
So
this
would
be
a
mechanism
for
providing
extras
important
to
kids,
who
are
actually
doing
it
out
of
the
schools.
We
have
lots
of
nurses
in
our
schools,
but
we
don't
have
clinics
themselves.
L
So
I
will
mention
that
there
are
a
couple
of
challenges
that
we're
seeing
in
these
spaces,
including
General
Workforce
recruitment
retention.
Burnout,
is
really
challenging
right
now.
You
know
a
lot
of
hiring
new
folks
requires
training,
but
we
have
this
urgency
of
time
right
now
so
moving
as
quickly
as
we
can.
L
L
E
Also
for
the
Medicaid,
the
I
mean
it's
showing
one-third
to
two-thirds
will
lose
coverage.
Has
there
been
any
analysis
beyond
that
estimation
to
see
how
many
will
then
have
employer
based
medical
coverage,
because
a
lot
of
this,
a
lot
of
the
Medicaid
opening
of
Medicaid,
came
from
people
losing
their
jobs
and
not
working?
So
how
much
has
that
shifted
now,
in
the
last
two
years,
as
people
become
employed
again,
I
just
it's
hard
to
estimate
how
big
the
impact
will
actually
be,
because
a
third
to
two-thirds
seems
scary,
yeah.
L
K
K
K
Don't
know
how
much
I
I
would
guess.
That's
not
a
large
percentage
of
that
number,
but
I
think
most
people
that
turn
off
will
go
to
The
Exchange
because
they
need
they
need
non-employer-based
coverage
and
there
are
subsidies
of
it.
You
know
it's.
It's
subsidized
coverage
up
to
a
certain
point,
so
so
there
is
support
through
the
exchange
Community
as
well,
but
it
is
it's.
K
It's
always
a
turn
issue
with
Medicaid
and
this
is
just
a
very
pronounced
churn,
because
so
many
people
are
turning
off
at
the
same
time,
but
it's
something
we
are
constantly
managing
to
in
the
on
the
insurance
side.
So
yeah,
it's
it's
and
just
continuity
of
coverage
right
like
what
you
had
The
Foreigner
Medicaid
versus
what
you're
gonna
get
when
you
move
off
is
is
concerning,
and
especially
around
things
like
Behavioral
Health
and
no
the
level
of
services
and
supports
you
might
be
getting
it
may
change.
L
M
Thank
you.
Everyone
thank
you
to
the
board
and
to
Lexi
for
having
me
I'm,
Emilia
Holbert
I'm,
the
heel
team,
which
is
a
healthy
eating,
active
living
team
lead
and
tonight
I'm,
going
to
speak
with
you
all
about
some
food
and
nutrition,
Security
Programs
that
we
run
on
my
team
and
give
some
updates
so
I
want
to
set
the
stage,
and
that
was
a
perfect
question
by
Brooke
a
little
earlier
and
just
really
grounding
Us
in
the
increases
that
we
have
seen
in
food
and
nutrition
and
security.
M
Since
the
start
of
the
global
pandemic,
just
some
Statewide
stats.
We
know
that
nearly
one
in
five
coloradans
have
skipped
meals
because
they're
unable
to
afford
food-
and
that
was
an
almost
doubling
from
2021
numbers,
so
that
is
a
22
2022
number,
but
dramatic
increases,
and
there
are
racial
Equity
concerns
as
well.
We
know
that
Colorado
Colorado
Latinos
over
50
percent
are
experiencing
significant
food
insecurity,
so
I
want
to
also
now
turn
to
this
issue
of
inflation.
So
some
areas
of
the
economy
are
experiencing.
Maybe
some
decreases
in
inflation.
M
Food
costs
are
not
one,
they
are
continuing
to
rise
and
prices
over
the
last
year
have
increased
about
11
for
food.
But
what
I
want
to
share
is
that,
looking
at
that,
Consumer
Price
Index
number
for
food
as
a
whole
actually
doesn't
tell
the
full
story
about
who
is
experiencing
the
greatest
burden
of
food
inflation.
M
There's
kind
of
this
inflation
and
equality
going
on,
because
the
the
Consumer
Price
Index
is
based
on
an
average
of
all
food
items,
but
premium
or
luxury
food
items
which
are
items
that
folks
with
low
incomes
are
not
typically
buying.
These
items
have
actually
gone
down
in
price
over
the
last
years,
and
what
we're
seeing
is
that
more
basic
or
non-premium
food
items
think
eggs
are
are
increasing
at
a
much
higher
rate.
M
M
M
K
And
do
the
the
Dr
maybe
you'll
get
into
this?
So
just
move
me
along,
but
the
driver
for
those
price
increases
because
I
know
like
eggs,
there's
a
real
reason
that
we're
seeing
eggs
egg
prices
go
up
because
they've
had
an
actual
issue
on
the
farms
with
the
chickens.
Right
and
chicken
is
also
chicken.
Meat
is
also
much
more
expensive
as
a
result
so
because
they
have
less
Supply.
So
are
there
different
drivers
of
those
prices,
or
is
it
all
sort
of
just
uniformly
going
up
due
to
inflationary.
M
Right
I
think
the
egg
one
is
very
specific
and
there's
a
lot
more
going
on
yeah
I
think
even
before
the
pandemic,
we've
seen
these
luxury
premium
items
start
to
dip,
and
so
now
the
relative
cost
of
more
basic
items
due
to
supply
chain
and
just
kind
of
all
of
these
impacts
we're
seeing
it
more
starkly.
In
contrast
to
other
items,
I
can't
think
of
any
examples
in
particular
I,
don't
think
it's
a
uniform
kind
of
increase,
but
folks
are
just
feeling
it
more
in
their
wallets.
K
M
Yeah
I
think
so
yeah,
okay,
thank
you,
Dalia
we're
already
on
the
next
slide.
Oh
sorry,
go
back
one.
So
Lexi
touched
a
bit
on
just
snap
in
general.
I
just
wanted
to
also
highlight
some
numbers,
so
this
map
takes
us
from
January
2020,
all
the
way
to
Mid
last
year,
just
showing
the
increase
and
I
think
I
heard
right
now.
We've
got
around
18
000
so
that
that
kind
of
tracks
with
where
we
were
mid
last
year.
M
M
This
one
shows
SNAP
benefit
dollars
issued
so
because
we
were
in
the
Federal
Emergency
households
were
getting
a
lot
more
snap
dollars,
which
was
really
great
and
really
helped
at
that
time.
Kind
of
ward
off
these
impacts
of
pandemic
inflation,
starting
and
just
all
of
the
struggles
that
families
are
facing
wanted
to
highlight
this
because,
as
you
can
see,
snap
enrollment
increased
by
22
percent,
but
this
is
like
a
1.5
time
increase
in
dollar
amount.
M
E
Well,
I'm
talking
about
you
know
we're
providing
a
lot
more
through
Snap
and
other
benefits
which
then
tracked
with
the
inflation.
This
might
be
beyond
your
purview,
but
when
we
roll
This
back,
we
could
see
inflation
lower.
So
I
guess
you
know
what
is
the
do
we
do.
We
know
like?
Is
there
a
Gap
that
we'll
have
to
cover,
or
are
we
looking
to
change
the
program
entirely
in
perpetuity.
M
For
federal
programs,
I'm
not
sure
I
can
answer
that
I
do
know.
So
it's
my
understanding
that
at
least
the
first
step,
the
benefit
amount
will
go
back
to
that
Thrifty
food
plan
increase
which
that
amount
had
not
been
updated
in
like
40
years,
so
it
was
way
overdue
for
for
an
update,
but
even
then
there's
a
lot
of
research
that
has
been
done.
That
shows
that
that
still
vastly
underestimates
the
amount
of
time
like
the
actual
cost
of
making
your
food
at
home,
I'm
not
sure.
M
M
So
this
is
just
kind
of
trying
to
put
some
numbers
to
it
of
of
how
much
was
going
out
the
door
and
benefits
and
then
per
month,
and
then
what
that
kind
of
what
that
SNAP
benefit
was
per
meal
before
the
public
health,
emergency
and
What
it
Rose
to
during
so
I
did
the
math
and
it
doesn't
quite
go
down
to
one
1.36,
but
it
goes
down
pretty
close
to
that
amount.
So
it
might
not
be
a
full
reduction
to
pre-pandemic
Max
allotments,
but
it's
certainly
a
significant
reduction.
M
I
think
the
stat
that
Lexi
gave
was
we
anticipate
about
ninety
dollars
per
month
per
person
as
an
average
reduction
reduction.
Yeah
next
slide,
so
I'm
gonna
walk
you
all
through
three
programs
that
my
teammates
and
I
support
here
at
public
health
and
I'm
going
to
talk
about
why
we
started
them.
Why
we
thought
they
were
important,
how
it
benefits
the
community?
How
this
type
of
program
is
unique?
What
we're
seeing
now
in
terms
of
need
and
then
what
direction
we
want
to
go
in.
M
This
one
is
unique
because
it
is
the
largest
snap,
doubling
retail
program
in
the
state
of
Colorado.
So
this
is
our
program
that
we
run
with
city
of
Boulder
funding.
That's
why
it
only
exists
in
three
locations
within
the
city
of
Boulder,
three
retail
locations,
three
retail
locations,
so
this
retail
one
is
different
than
the
farmers
markets
one,
and
that's
because
the
farmer's
market
program
is
amazing,
but
we
recognize
that
the
hours
don't
work
for
everyone
and
it's
really
important
to
have
a
location.
That's
open!
M
365
days
a
year
in
the
pandemic,
we
did
see
a
very
large
increase
in
utilization,
as
you
saw,
there
was
a
lot
more
snap
out
there
to
be
doubled,
so
we
do
expect
to
see
a
drop,
we're
not
really
sure
what
that's
going
to
look
like.
Yet
we
did
just
get
February
February
numbers
just
today,
but
it's
hard
to
know
what
we're
going
to
see
and
we
did
have
over
two
hundred
thousand
dollars
redeemed
in
2022..
K
M
We
can
anticipate
that
we're
gonna
sell
some
drops,
so
we
are
working
with
housing
and
Human
Services
to
incorporate
information
on
double
up
and
all
of
their
town
halls
and
their
information.
Just
so
folks
know,
Outreach
is
always
really
important
for
us,
but
just
making
sure
that
everybody
knows
that
they
can
access
this.
They
have
snap.
M
It's
the
three
Whole
Foods
Markets
locations
within
the
city
of
Boulder
and
I'll,
get
into
this
and
like
and
where
we
want
to
go.
We
have
some
other
models
and
options
that
we
want
to
explore.
We
just
don't
have
the
funding
to
do
it.
As
I
said,
this
one
is
funded
with
city
of
Boulder
Health,
Equity
Funds,
which
is
why
it's
just
city
of
Boulder,
the
farmers
markets
program,
is
open
in
four
farmers
markets
across
the
county,
and
we
support
those
programs
with
a
lot
of
technical
assistance
and
funding
next
slide.
M
The
carrot
graph
on
the
left
shows
our
seven
years
that
we've
done
this
program
started
it
back
in
November
of
2017
just
for
one
short
month,
and
this
Gap
was
identified,
because
this
was
back
when
WIC
families
could
receive
as
little
as
like
eight
dollars
a
month
for
fresh
fruits
and
vegetables.
Things
have
changed,
which
is
great,
and
now
they
get
a
lot
more.
Yet
this
is
still
a
really
important
program
and
it
gives
WIC
families
either
a
weekly
home
delivery
or
coupons
that
they
can
go
to
shop
at
the
market.
M
M
The
home
delivery
has
been
really
important
in
engaging
with
a
lot
of
WIC
families,
families
of
color
a
lot
of
Latino
Hispanic
WIC
families,
so
something
that
we
feel
really
strongly
about
is
trying
to
ensure
that
we
can
get
some
sustainable
funding
mechanisms
to
make
that
home
delivery
more
sustainable.
As
you
can
imagine,
it
takes
a
lot
more
resources
to
do
a
home
delivery
program,
but
it's
really
engaging
a
portion
of
the
WIC
population
that
was
otherwise
not
able
to
access
the
farmers
market
and
therefore
access
fresh
locally
grown
fruits
and
vegetables.
M
M
So
just
really
providing
this
opportunity
has
opened
up
the
doors
to
make
the
market
more
accessible
for
WIC
families,
and
this
is
the
market
both
in
Boulder
and
Longmont,
which
opens
April
1st
and
the
source
of
funding
for
this.
So
the
farmers
markets
applies
for
the
boulder
families
to
the
Health,
Equity
sugar,
sweet
and
beverage
tax
fund.
Every
other
Longmont
Longmont,
Human
Services
fund
provides
a
little
bit
of
funding,
and
then
we
at
my
team,
utilize
sustainability,
tax
funding
county-wide
to
support
every
other
County
employee.
M
L
M
Yeah,
thank
you
for
highlighting
that
okay
next
slide
so
with
the
last
program
I
want
to
highlight
is
our
fruit
and
veg
program.
So
you
heard
about
the
supplemental
produce
programs
for
snap
and
wig
families.
We
know
there
are
a
ton
of
families
who
can't
qualify
first,
stop
in
WIC
yet
are
experiencing
significant
nutrition
and
security.
So
this
is
a
program
we
started
back
in
2019.
We
identified
this
Gap
and
the
goals
of
this
program
are
really
supporting
these
households
to
be
able
to
shop
with
dignity
and
choice
a
lot
of
times.
M
They
don't
get
choice
in
many
parts
of
their
life.
We
work
with
trusted
Community
Partners
to
find
families
who
are
falling
through
the
cracks.
Maybe
they
make
a
little
bit
too
much
money.
They
can't
income
qualify
or
many
of
our
program.
Participants
might
have
mixed
documentation
status.
So
that's
really.
The
priority
population
that
we're
serving
through
this
program
listed
are
many
of
our
partners.
M
We
run
this
program
in
Boulder
and
Longmont
with
two
different
funding
sources,
so
we
fund
this
program
in
Boulder,
with
primarily
with
sugar,
sweetened
beverage,
Health
Equity
Fund
money
participants
can
shop
at
a
variety
of
retail
locations,
Farmers
Markets,
larger
retail
stores,
as
well
as
a
locally
owned
Tienda
and
in
Longmont
it's
a
little
bit
different
because
we
utilize
County
sustainability
tax
funding.
So,
as
Lexi
pointed
out
really
that
emphasis
on
local
sustainable
agriculture
with
the
Longmont
program,
we
distribute
over
40
000
each
month
in
incentives
for
fresh
produce.
L
M
They
currently
get
vouchers.
We
are
desperately
working
on
a
technology
solution,
we're
not
quite
there
yet.
We
think
that
we
might
have
a
solution
that
would
kind
of
be
a
digital
barcode
that
we're
hopeful
to
try
over
the
coming
months.
This
has
been
like
two
and
a
half
years
in
the
making.
It's
really
hard
to
get
something
that's
going
to
work
across
all
of
the
retailers
and
we
just
haven't
been
willing
to
compromise
on
Choice
to
do
like
you
know
we
could.
M
We
could
do
this
at
one
retailer
and
get
it
set
up
tomorrow,
but
in
terms
of
our
our
goal
of
wanting
to
scale
this,
we
got
to
get
away
from
paper.
It's
incredibly
time.
Intensive
administrative,
administratively,
burdensome
and
I
think
it
would
be
better
for
program
participants
cashiers
everybody,
but
right
now
it's
paper
so
and
Partnerships
yeah,
as
Lexi
said,
Amistad
is
our
biggest
partner,
probably
about
65
of
our
Boulder
families,
at
least,
and
that
program
is
deeply
embedded
into
their
organization.
M
As
far
as
most
of
those
families
are
concerned
at
a
zombie
studs
program,
which
is
exactly
what
we
want,
we
don't
want
this
to
be
public
health
program
necessarily
and
I.
Think
that's
why
it
has
been
so
successful
in
enrolling
like
235
plus
families,
who
would
not
have
felt
comfortable
coming
to
me
to
enroll
and
we
don't
collect.
We
collect
very
minimal
data.
M
I,
don't
know
anything
about
who
participants
are
and
that's
exactly
how
we
intended
it
all
right
next
slide,
so
just
in
summary,
wanted
to
kind
of
run
through
the
three
programs
that
I
just
described
and
talk
a
little
bit
about
opportunities
and
directions
that
we
would
love
to
go
in.
So
double
up:
food
bucks,
households
on
snap,
the
retail
is
just
in
the
city
of
Boulder,
but
we
really
would
love
to
expand
this
county-wide.
We
are
in
conversations
with
mountain
communities,
thinking
about
different
models
that
might
work
better
for
different
places.
M
Maybe
a
home
delivery
type
model
It
ultimately
comes
down
to
where
we
have
funding
to
to
do
this
work
right
now
reaching
out
to
you
know,
leaning
on
our
partners
with
HHS
to
continue
to
promote
this,
especially
now
when
households
are
getting
less
snap
just
to
clarify
the
the
market
program,
we
are
still
very
involved
in
that
and
look
for
fundraising
efforts
and
provide
a
lot
of
technical
assistance.
The
retail
one
is
our
program
that
lifts
on
our
team
and
does
operate
differently
than
the
farmers
markets
program.
M
M
We
we
do
wonder
if,
if
we
should
consider
reevaluating
that
weekly
benefit
amount,
we
haven't
changed
it
since
2017.,
so
that
is
going
to
be
a
conversation
that
we
would
like
to
start
soon
and
then
fruit
and
veg,
this
Gap
population
that
can't
be
served
by
snap
or
WIC.
Currently,
just
in
Boulder
Longmont,
but
again
we
would
really
love
to
expand
county-wide,
Mountain
communities,
east
County.
If
we
can
get
a
card
or
a
barcode,
we
can
do
that
a
lot
easier,
and
then
we
have
been
meeting
with
Partners.
M
We
held
a
meeting
a
couple
weeks
ago
brought
everyone
together,
which
is
really
amazing,
because
we
hadn't
been
able
to
do
that
since
covid
and
just
hearing
from
that
them
like.
Are
there
families
that
they're
seen
who
can't
qualify
under
our
current
eligibility?
So
we're
really
working
with
Partners
to
re-examine
eligibility?
We
might
increase
income
guidelines
a
little
bit.
M
It's
really
complex,
trying
to
figure
out
who
exactly
is
falling
through
the
cracks.
So
we
are
holding
a
follow-up
session
in
the
coming
weeks
again
with
Partners
bringing
everyone
together,
and
the
last
thing
to
highlight
is
just
a
partnership
with
CSU
extension
and
parks
and
open
space
and
our
partners
at
the
farmers
markets.
We've
been
Gathering
a
lot
of
participant
feedback.
What
do
they
want?
Do
they
want
cooking
lessons
they
want
recipes?
Do
they
want
to
come
to
Market
and
get
a
tour?
M
Wic
has
no
eligibility
requirements,
so
all
kiddos
under
age.
Five
meeting
180
of
the
federal
poverty
limit
snap
is
a
hundred
percent,
so
snap
income
eligibility
is
lower
than
WIC
and
there
is
citizenship
requirements
for
those.
So
a
lot
of
times
we
get
into
a
case
where
it's
a
family
of
six,
maybe
there's
four
adults.
Two
kids
have
snap,
but
it's
only
the
two
kids
they'll.
E
So
Lexi
you
mentioned
being
at
capacity,
and
you
mentioned
wait
list
for
some
of
these
programs-
are
the
waitlists
and
the
capacity
limitations
based
on
dollars,
or
are
they
based
on
Manpower
folks?
Both?
So?
Is
it
even
reasonable
to
consider
increasing
some
of
the
some
of
the
coverage
in
some
of
these
programs?
If
you
might
then
be
keeping
more
people
on
the
wait
list
like
if
you
might
be
adding
a
greater
limit
to
the
number
of
people
that
can
participate.
M
Yeah
I
think
it's
a
question
that
we
are
constantly
struggling
with.
We
want
to
serve
as
many
people
as
we
can.
We
also
want
to
provide
a
meaningful
benefit.
I
think
we
have
always
historically
opted
to
try
to
serve
as
many
people
as
we
can
so
the
way
our
Builder
and
Longmont
program
works
is
we
give
a
certain
amount
for
families
of
one
to
two
and
then
a
certain
amount
for
three
plus
for
Boulder
Longmont?
B
M
More
expensive
so
for
us
we're
always
kind
of
doing
that,
math
I
will
say
we
distribute
benefits
in
quarterly
Cycles.
We
always
have
drop-offs.
So
it's
kind
of
always
this
ebb
and
flow.
We're
usually
able
to
get
folks
off
the
wait
list
at
some
point,
so
we
haven't
I
I.
Think
though
we
we
don't
feel
like
we
can
drop
down
from
the
current
benefit
amount
that
we
have
yeah.
L
Yeah
WIC
is
more
structured,
obviously
and
I
will
say
because
WIC
is
less.
You
know
the
the
the
the
benefits
the
pros
of
the
programs
run
out
of
heel.
Is
that
they're
more
transactional,
but
that
keeps
your
overhead
really
low
and
gets
the
money
out
the
door
it
becomes
more
of
a
pass
through
WIC
is
more
of
you
know
a
a
consultative
program
with
overhead
with
providers
that
are
meeting
with
people
on
a
regular
basis,
so
they're
pretty
they're
a
bit
different
in
nature.
Yeah.
K
M
M
K
Yeah,
that's
so
I
focus
on
the
Medicare
population
and
I
food
insecurity
is
a
major
problem
for
the
elderly
population
generally
and
I
think
in
terms
of
getting
access
to
services
and
being
out
in
the
community
and
having
Community
engagement
it's
lower
than
for
younger
families
and
individuals.
So
it's
just
interesting
to
think
about
access
and
what
you
know,
maybe
partnering
with
the
Area
Agency
on
Aging
and
finding
out
whether
there
are
other
Partnerships
that
focus
on
older
adults,
because
I
suspect,
I,
don't
know
that
that
might
be
a
community.
M
We
do
we
do
work
with
triple
A.
We
it's
you're
exactly
right
and
I.
Think
I
don't
know
if
we're
going
to
be
able
to
do
it,
but
we
have
a
home
delivery
mechanism
that
would
be
really
cool
because
I
think
you
know
I'll
come
into
contact
with
older
adults
and
they're
like
well
I
can't
even
I
can't
get
to
the
store
to
use
the
coupon,
so
I
think
some
specialized
program
offerings
for
that
population
is
really
needed.
Yeah,
yeah
and.
K
L
One
of
the
things
that
we're
finding
with
the
Equitable
leadership
initiative
is
that
we
often
get
notification
of
opportunities
too
late
to
be
able
to
do
our
internal
process
that
really
kind
of
gives
folks
an
opportunity
and
kind
of
lifts.
It's
the
same
problem.
We
have
with
fenders
right
when
you
only
give
us
a
month
to
respond.
We
can't
effectively
engage
the
community
in
some
of
these
conversations,
so
really
just
trying
to
get
longer
lead
times
to
promote
equity
in
processes
as
we
move
forward.
L
K
I
have
a
couple
of
questions,
so
the
Marshall
fire
it
looks
like
the
air
monitoring
is
coming
to
an
end
except
for
I
think
in
the
Boulder
Valley
School
District
I'm
just
curious.
If
we've
had
any
public
input
on
that
concerns
raised
I
I,
don't
I,
don't
have
a
good
read
on
that
issue
and
how
people
are
responding
to
ending
that
program.
G
We
had
a
couple
inquiries:
Joe,
malinowski
environmental
division
manager,
just
I
think
some
concerned
citizens
same
folks
that
were
worried
about
the
cleaning
of
the
schools
right
after
the
fire.
I
think
they
latched
on
to
this
too
I
I
think
the
reality
is
that
we
are
moving
the
monitors
because
it
didn't
show
a
lot
of
impact
from
the
fire
and
we
figure
we
have
better
uses,
and
we
still
feel
like
we're
getting
good
monitoring
with
the
schools.
G
That'll
stay
with
the
monitors
there,
we're
proposing
to
use
them
on,
or
some
other
places
to,
Gateway
to
Rocky,
Mountain
Park
and
by
c-mex
and
some
other
areas
to
try
to
gauge
some
dust
and
some
other
complaints.
We
get
on
a
regular
basis
and
try
to
use
those
monitors
there,
but
not
a
lot.
I
think
I
think
we've
only
had
actually
one
and
then
they
they
some
news
outlets
asking
for
some
comments
as
well.
Okay,.
L
Okay,
unfortunately,
there
was
some.
There
was
an
op-ed
written
in
the
paper
yesterday
that
the
person
who
wrote
it
had
misinformation
thought
that
we
hadn't
been
monitoring.
But
we
think
that
that
confusion
came
about
because
we
had
set
up
over
a
dozen
monitors
last
year
and
we
were
just
transferring
four
of
the
monitors
to
the
responsibilities
of
the
schools
going
forward
and
we
think
that
probably
they
misinterpreted
that,
as
looking
like,
we
were
just
starting
to
do
monitoring
at
the
schools.
When
that's
been
there
in
place
for
a
year,
yeah.
K
G
A
L
G
Is
a
risk
you
see
is
folding
into
our
health,
more
of
a
healthy
home
program,
yeah
there's
a
lot
of
issues
that
are
in
a
home
that
we
don't
necessarily
have
funding
but
I
think
by
putting
it
together.
You
know
whether
it's
radon
or
even
the
message
or
lead
or
mold,
and
get
a
lot
of
complaints
about
them
all
right
kind
of
things.
We
think
by
putting
those
together,
I,
think
and
having
you
know,
I
think
it'll
just
increase
some
efficiencies
because
we
do
get
a
letter
inquiry
from
the
citizen.
A
Yeah
and
if
they're
like
Community
Partners
that
do
hold
like
I
know
in
our
neighborhood,
we
have
a
radon
kit
that
you
can
pass
around
like
neighbors
can
request
to
use
that.
So
if
there
are
Community
Partners
that
have
resources
that
could
be
listed
in
some
sort
of
kit
that
is
offered
to
people
that
inquire,
like
your
community
groups,
that.
K
I
also
just
wonder
how
much
awareness
there
is
yeah,
it's
a
very
unique
issue
to
this
area
of
the
world
and
yeah
people
may
not
even
understand
that
it's
a
risk
living
here,
okay
and
then
one
last
question.
Sorry
I've
seen
workload
increasing
underwater
quality
for
permitting
Etc
and
challenge
challenged
by
that
from
a
staffing
perspective.
G
So
we
really
do
need
to
have
a
couple
extra
staff
to
deal
with
that
workload,
because
it
is
quite
a
number
of
programs.
We
expect
the
hard
part.
Is
it's
probably
not
to
be
over
the
next
two
or
three
years
yeah?
So
it's
a
little
bit
hard
to
use
fees
to
cover
those.
But
we
are.
We
are
going
to
make
a
request
to
the
county.
G
E
E
L
E
And
then
the
other
questions
I
very
much
appreciate
the
inclusion
of
the
executive
summary
for
the
state
and
lpha
discussion,
and
you
know
very
much
focused
on
the
communication
gaps
between
the
state
between
the
state
and
the
local
agencies,
and
then
it
also
had
the
modernization
of
the
Statewide
Data
Systems
in
there.
But
what
it
didn't
include
and
what
I
really
wonder
if
it's
happening
I
would
assume
is
that
happening
at
the
local
level
because
of
just
the
main
access
to
data
in
a
Manpower
issue,
but
at
the
state
level?
E
K
L
You
know
I
think
we're
going
to
continue
to
be
in
a
space
where
we're
looking
back
over
a
period
of
time
and
saying
what
did
we
get
right
and
what
did
we
get
wrong?
Yeah?
It
may
be
a
couple
more
years
before
you
know,
as
we
continue
to
learn
in
these
spaces,
and
you
know,
Public
Health
did
not
get
everything
right
and
at
the
same
time
there
were
a
lot
of
times.
When
you
know
we
didn't
have
a
lot
of
choices
about
what
to
do
at
the
local
level.
L
We
had
to
do
what
we
were
told
to
do
and
do
our
best
in
imperfect
systems
that
you
know
were
not
built
for
a
pandemic
and
we
had
an
experienced
a
pandemic
for
100
years,
and
we
haven't
had
funding
to
really
properly
support
response.
But
I
do
think
that
you
know,
in
addition
to
what
you
saw
for
the
AAR
with
the
state
conversation
you
know,
we
continue
to
look
as
an
agency
at
kind
of
what
went
right
and
what
went
wrong
inside
our
agency
and
I.
L
E
L
We
came
across
the
other
day
that
was
just
devastating
about
how
much
turnover
there
has
been
include
specific
to
Colorado
and-
and
you
know,
how
do
we,
how
do
we
strengthen
our
systems
and
our
infrastructure
and
get
into
a
place
where
we're
much
better
prepared
for
the
kind
of
flexibility
Workforce
flexibilities
that
we
need
in
funding
flexibilities
that
we
need
to
be
able
to
respond
to
something
like
a
pandemic
or
or
another.
You
know
urgent
emergency
that
could
come
up,
but
I
will
definitely
follow
up
with
you.
A
B
A
And
and
I
mean
to
this
point,
I
do
think
it
would
be
interesting.
You
know
one
of
the
strengths
I
feel
of
this
community
going
through
pandemic
response
was
those
relationships
built
with
Partners
like
the
Chamber
of
Commerce
and
the
university
and
the
school
district,
and
having
some
reflection
locally
on
you
know,
are
there
things
that
we
all
agree
went
really
well
or
are
there
things
that
we
would
make
changes
on
and
as
a
board
I
think
it's
you
know
we
haven't
had
a
chance
to
really
reflect
so
much
about.
A
K
Yeah
I
mean
it's
interesting
like
in
the
context
of
the
conversation
we
just
had
with
some
of
our
partners,
including
the
Commissioners
I.
You
know,
I
I
worry
a
little
bit
about
not
having
Clarity
around
and
precision
around
where
our
top
priorities
are
right
and
the
associated
Readiness
and
the
risks
associated
with
that
like
in
a
clear
picture
right,
so
that
you
kind
of
kind
of
cut
through
the
noise
to
say,
if
we're
really
to
cut
through
it.
K
I,
don't
know
I
mean
you
know,
taking
that
leadership
to
say.
Well:
here's
what
our
experience
was
and
because
I
think,
if
we're
going
to
start
to
talk
about
funding
and
prioritization,
that's
where
that
Clarity
really
needs
to
come
through
in
my
mind
and
I
certainly
do
not
want
to
be
in
a
Board
of
Health
and
feel
like
there's
areas
where
they're
just
imperative
right
that
we're
funded
and
ready
and
we're
not
right.
L
I
would
also
say
that
there's
in
addition
to
kind
of
the
conversations
that
that
we're
setting
up
with
you
all
in
with
the
Commissioners
about
kind
of
where
our
priorities
are,
there's
also
a
planning
process,
that's
happening
in
Emergency
Management,
that
is
about
okay
in
terms
of
emergencies.
Where
are
our
biggest
vulnerabilities?
Where
are
What
are
the
things
that
we
need
to
do
to
set
up
preparedness
for
those?
What
are
the
trainings
that
we
need
to
do
with
staff?
