19
update,
varsity
manager,
gleason.
E
Thank
you,
mayor
and
council.
Just
a
couple
of
quick
comments:
the
small
business
grant
program
we
have
noticed
slowing
in
the
applications
that
we've
received,
but
for
the
community
we
do
have
nearly
100
000
that
remains
available
for
small
businesses
to
apply
for
those
grants.
E
Also,
at
the
council
meeting
next
monday
on
the
28th,
the
emergency
ordinance,
the
emergency
order
ordinance
will
come
before
council
with
the
staff
recommendation
to
end
that
effective
june
30th.
It
will
also
include
some
best
practices
that
we've
learned
along
the
way
amidst
cobot
and
then.
Lastly,
while
we
still
have
a
vaccination
footprint
vaccination
site
at
the
arena,
the
footprint
is
much
smaller,
but
that
continues
for
the
next
few
months.
Thank
you.
B
Okay,
thank
you,
city
manager,
gleason.
Our
next

do
we
have
anybody
registered

speak,
live
or
any
email
comments.
B
Okay,

with
item
a
presentation,
discussion
by
mclean
county
regional
planning,
commission
on
the
go,
save
mclean
county
action
plan
and
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
city
manager,
gleason
for
introductory
remarks
and
our
presence.
E
Thank
you,
mayor
and
council
very
pleased
to
introduce
this
topic
tonight.
Kevin
cote,
the
our
public
works
director
has
been
actively
working
with
ray
lai,
the
executive
director
at
mclean
county
regional
planning
for
the
last
year
year
plus,
and
I
was
going
to
pass
this
to
kevin
with
some
opening
comments.
Kevin.
I
Thank
you,
city
manager,
gleason.
I
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
come
before
you
tonight
with
this
go
safe,
mclean
county
action
plan.
I
just
want
to
take
the
opportunity
to
recognize
that
you
know
we
have
an
intergovernmental
group
that
meets
on
a
regular
basis
that
includes
the
city
of
bloomington,
town,
normal
county
and
mclean,
and
regional
planning
commission,
along
with
some
other
partners,
including
connect,
transit
and
isu
and
iw,
and
we
meet
on
a
regular
basis
to
talk
about
transportation
and
development
issues,
and
this
is
just
one
of
those
you
know.
I
Many
of
you
have
heard
of
vision,
zero,
it's
a
worldwide
initiative,
and
this
is
a
go
safe
action
plan
as
an
implementation
of
vision,
zero
specific
to
our
community
involving
many
stakeholders
of
the
community
and
it's
it
has
been
a
process
over
the
course
of
a
year
plus
and
it's
my
great
privilege
to
introduce
ray
lai
who's,
the
executive
director
and
jennifer
six
who's,
the
senior
transportation
planner
with
the
mclean
county
regional
party
commission,
and
they
will
step
through
some
of
the
process.
J
Thank
you
kevin
and
good
evening.
Thank
you,
maya
and
members
of
the
city
council
and
also
mr
gleason,
to
give
us
the
opportunity
to
share
with
you
this
very
important
project
for
our
community
regarding
traffic
safety
and,
as
mr
kofi
pointed
out,
is
really
part
of
an
international
movement
coalition,
zero
that
started
in
1997
in
sweden
and
is
going
across
the
oceans
to
other
parts
of
the
country
in
the
state
of
illinois.
J
According
to
their
map,
this
network,
this
international
network,
only
for
the
state
of
being
normally
have
it,
only
has
the
state
the
city
of
chicago
on
it.
So
we
could
be
the
next
one.
J
We're
trying
to
have
that
for
for
be
to
be
part
of
the
network
and
this
planning
process
for
the
vision,
zero,
which
got
rebranded
to
us,
go
save
so
you
might
hit
go
save,
but
what
we
means
is
we
need
to
that
vision,
zero
and
vision,
zero
means,
zero,
fatality
and
zero
serious
injuries
due
to
traffic
accidents.
So
that's
where
the
name
vision,
zero
comes
to,
and
this
planning
process
that
we
started
last
year
and
it's
all
happened
during
the
pandemic.
J
So
we're
trying
to
have
to
juggle
through
the
planning
process,
but
at
the
end
I
think
it
was
successful
and
a
lot
of
buy
buy-ins
and
other
participations
by
the.
J
This
project
is
funded
by
idot
inline
department
of
transportation
through
a
grand
thumbnail,
and
so,
as
this
relates
to
traffic
safety,
next
slide,
please
I
it
just
gives
you
a
sense
of
timeline.
The
project
takeoff
took
place
in
june
of
2020
a
year
ago.
Actually,
and
it
went
through
our
process,
we
didn't
do
it
to
spy
staff
only,
but
we
also
had
a
project
steering
committee
and
also
a
subject
matter
expert
panel,
including
some
of
the
staff
members
of
the
city
of
bloomington
and
next
slide.
J
Please,
and
they
had
a
lot
of
meetings
and
discussions,
and
we
also
to
a
later
part
of
the
planning
process.
We
have
three
virtual
community
conversations,
public
meetings
held
and
we've
on
input,
and
also
we
allow
public
comments
even
outside
of
the
virtual
open
meetings
and
so
with
all
those
information
and
input
collected.
J
The
consultants
helped
to
put
together
a
plan
and
that
plan
was
considered
and
then
adopted
by
the
mclean
county
regional
planning,
commission
and,
while
the
plan
says
mclean
county,
I
want
to
point
out
that
it's
not
just
for
mclean
county,
not
just
for
the
rural
area.
In
fact,
it's
wrong.
It's
for
the
entire
region,
the
urban
and
rural
areas,
but
actually,
as
you
can
imagine,
most
of
population
intensity
of
traffic
most
of
the
accidents
happen
in
the
urban
areas.
J
J
As
I
mentioned
there,
was
project
steering
committee
and
also
subject
matter.
Experts
representing
the
universities,
major
employers,
businesses,
school
districts,
economic
development
sector
for
the
city,
town,
county
staff,
you're
from
engineering,
public
works,
planning,
your
police
department,
county
health
department
and
really
a
lot
of
different
sectors.
Not
just
governments
are
involved
in
this
planning
process
and
of
course
we
could
not
just
do
it
ourselves
and
we
enlisted,
through
our
fp
process,
had
a
consultant
team
selected
and
that's
the
high
group.
J
It's
a
local
consultants,
but
they
actually
do
work
over
the
country
and
we
are
just
so
glad
to
have
them
to
help
us
through
the
process
and
also
they
have
a
sub
consultant
called
five
brand
co-op
to
help
the
branding
marketing
the
graphics
design
of
this
project
and
in
fact
they
just
got
a
2021
year
for
the
year,
the
graphic
design
award,
which
is
a
national
because
of
this
project.
So
I
just
want
to
call
it
now.
J
We
just
got
notified
last
week
next
slide,
please
so
we're
just
going
to
cover
the
priorities,
the
core
principles,
the
data
we're
not
going
to
go
into
2d,
because
when
you
have
time
you
can
refer
to
the
report
which
I
believe
kevin.
Mr
kofi's
memo
has
the
link
to
the
actual
report,
we're
going
to
talk
about
the
targets
and
timeline,
and
then
jennifer
is
going
to
cover
the
strategies
and
recommendations
of
the
three
major
areas:
the
infrastructure,
data,
research
and
technology
and
community
culture.
Change
next
slide,
please.
J
Traffic
safety
is
not
just
about
votes,
actually
it's
more
than
just
roads,
equity,
education
enforcement,
engineering,
evaluation,
environmental
stewardship
and
economic
impact.
Just
think
of
all
those.
Next
time
when
we
start
you
know
driving
in
a
row
and
when
you
hear
about
accidents
and
how
to
be
can
be
safe,
just
think
about
those
seven
priorities
next
slide,
please
I'm
not
going
to
read
this
all
this
text,
but
just
to
want
to
point
out
the
five
core
principles.
J
J
Fourth,
one
is
the
human
behaviors
education
traffic
safety
enforcement.
They
are
important
to
to
a
safe
transportation
system.
Last
but
not
least,
people
are
inherently
vulnerable
to
crash
injuries
and
speed,
and
the
speed
really
a
major
factor
in
sometimes
really
how
bad
the
crash
would
be.
Next
like
this.
J
J
Things
like
this,
so
the
the
four
slides
jennifer
is
going
to
focus
on
the
recommendations
and
strategies
in
how
we
can
implement
the
plans
and
all
of
this
so
that
we
can
achieve
that
goal.
Jim.
K
Thank
you
fred.
I,
this
is
going
to
be
quick
because
there's
a
lot
of
text
here
and
we're
short
on
time
so
on
this.
Obviously
we're
starting
with
infrastructure
and
the
sort
of
through
line
here
is
use
of
complete
streets,
the
concept,
the
plans
that
we
already
have
to
direct
the
process
of
addressing
transportation
system
safety.
K
We
also
are
looking
at
special
attention
to
alternate
modes
of
transportation,
walking
liking,
transit
views
and
others,
and
finally,
we're
looking
at
a
concentration
on
safe
transportation
options
for
vulnerable
and
disadvantaged
people
in
the
community
and
that's
important,
because
a
lot
of
the
alternate
modes
focus
more
in
that
direction.
Next
slide,
please,
as
a
result
of
previous
work
that
has
been
done
with
respect
to
complete
streets,
there
is
already
an
inventory
of
prioritized
street
segments.
Some
of
these
are
already
done.
K
Some
are
yet
to
come,
but
the
idea
is
that
this
will
be
a
running
inventory
that
allows
us
to
process
where
we
have
to
focus
next
and
that's
our
community
all
together.
Next
slide.
Please
excuse
me
throughout
the
planning
process
and
reyes
already
alluded
to
this.
K
One
thing
is
clear,
which
is
the
weakest
link:
are
human
beings
in
this
transportation
system,
and
so
that's
true
to
such
a
degree
that
idot
the
illinois
department
of
transportation
focused
all
of
its
efforts
on
distracted
driving,
and
it's
definitely
an
issue
that
has
to
be
contended
with
here,
as
well
as
across
the
state.
Just
a
few
examples
here:
the
kind
of
issues
that
can
arise
in
the
difficulty
of
managing
human
beings.
That's
why
please
thank
you.
Data
recommendations
boil
down
to
a
couple
of
things.
K
This
includes
crowd
source
data
in
some
instances
that
will
be
a
part
of
the
process
of
looking
at
where
the
real
opinions
are
we'll
look
at
ways
in
which
emerging
transportation,
technologies,
data
management
reforms
can
go
hand
in
hand
and
contribute
to
achieving
the
goals
that
are
set
forth
here
and
to
do
all
of
this
as
transparently
as
possible
item
four
here,
while
at
the
same
time
protecting
personal
privacy,
and
that
will
be
an
interesting
trick
since,
of
course,
for
many
people.
That's
an
issue
that
they're
very
concerned
about
next
slide.
K
Please,
okay,
so
research
recommendations.
We
happen
to
be
lucky
to
be
in
a
community
with
that's
rich
in
information
and
with
the
analytic
talent.
We
need
to
use
that
information
wisely
and,
as
you
can
see,
excuse
me,
as
you
can
see.
Some
of
these
indications
are
that
we
sort
of
gather
in
you,
know,
stakeholders
and
interested
parties
and
medical
community
and
so
on
to
help
us
decide
how
to
proceed.
K
What
kind
of
research
is
needed
tapping
those
resources
will
create
a
stronger
implementation
of
the
go
safe
transportation,
safety,
safety
initiative
and
aid
in
the
thoughtful
implementation
of
new
technologies.
We
really
have
to
think
carefully
about
these
as
we
go
forward,
and
this
is
sort
of
the
area
in
which
we'll
do
that,
both
with
respect
to
transportation
systems
and
also
data
safety.
Next
slide,
please
technology,
that's
what
it's
all
about.
Several
of
these
all
focus
on,
one
particular,
what
they
call
micro
mobility
option,
and
that
is
a
controversial
subject.
K
You
may
have
seen
it
in
motorized
scooters
that
have
popped
up
in
various
places.
There's
some
dissension
about
whether
or
not
those
are
a
good
idea,
but
again
this
needs
analysis.
It
needs
data
to
tell
us
how
well
those
really
work
and
how
dangerous
they
are,
and
we
have
to
do
that
with
specific
data
and
also
the
cooperation
of
law
enforcement.
K
We're
also
going
to
look
at
technologies
that
rely
on
communications
between
vehicles
and
between
vehicles
and
surrounding
infrastructure,
other
permutations
of
the
sort
of
vehicle
information
network
and
we'll
be
looking
at
those
through
a
safety
list
we'll
be
examining
those
in
terms
of
how
well
they
work
and
how
implementable
they
are,
and
look
for
opportunities
to
test
new
technologies
to
evaluate
their
suitability
for
wide
scale.
Use
next
slide.
K
Thank
you,
and
this
is
really
the
interesting
one,
because
this
notion
of
community
culture
change
raises
a
lot
of
of
issues
about
how
we
go
about
this
kind
of
two
tracks.
In
approaching
this
one
is
the
launch
and
expanding
of
the
initiative
that
we've
outlined
here,
and
it's
described
of
course
much
more
fully
in
the
report
itself,
but
also
using
the
go
safe
tools
that
we've
established
in
order
to
educate
about
safety
and
help
people
move
to
a
preference
for
safe
behavior
julie.
K
Heil
from
the
aisle
group
is
fond
of
the
example
that
she
wants
to
see
people
when
they
come
when
they're
approaching
a
yellow
light
to
be
inclined
more
to
put
on
the
brakes
than
to
try
and
rush
through
it,
and
that's
the
kind
of
culture
change
we're
talking
about
here
next
slide.
Please
thank
you,
and
there
are
a
lot
of
ways
to
take
all
of
these
ideas
and
the
ways
in
which
we've
shown
them
and
illustrated
them
into
communities,
large
and
small,
all
ages.
J
Thank
you
jenna
from
next
slide.
Please
this
just
some
of
the
notes.
Gotta,
give
you
a
sense
when
we
have
those
three
community
conversations.
You
know
those
public
virtual
public
meetings
and
we
took
notes
and
on
comments
that
we
received
next
slide.
J
Please
so
just
see
if
you
have
any
comments
or
questions,
and
what
we
would
also
like
to
do
is
to
get
any
feedback
you
may
have,
while
the
the
plan
has
been
adopted
by
the
clint
county
regional
planning
commission,
with
this,
like
john
edwards
with
others,
but
we
would
really
like
to
just
see
if
the
city
council
is
comfortable
with
the
plan
as
is
or
if
you
would
like
to
you
know,
have
your
own
version
or
above
some
variations
either
way.
J
You
know
we
can
work
with
the
city
manager
and
your
staff
toward
that
goal.
Just
want
to
see.
If
you
have
any
feedback
or
any
thoughts,
then
we
can
all
work
together.
As
you
can
see,
this
is
a
major
effort.
Traffic
essence,
don't
stop
at
city
limits.
I
mean
it's
the
region,
it's
people,
people
travel
from
point
a
to
point
b,
and
so
it
really
takes
a
committee-wide
effort.
J
So
but
we
also
value
your
input
and
your
feedback
so
and
that
would
help
us
to
see
what's
the
best
way
to
implement
the
plan
and
what
framework
then
we
should
structure
to
make
it
a
better
place,
safer
place
for
everybody
in
our
community.
B
Okay,
thank
you
very
much
ray
and
jennifer
for
a
great
presentation
and
and
what,
although
there
are
only
six
or
seven
slides
I
I
know
it
took
a
lot
of
work.
It's
a
lot
more
work
than
what
it
might
look
so
and
you
know-
and
I
can
tell
oh
my
goodness-
that
there
is
quite
a
bit
of
interest
in
the
topic,
because
there
are
a
lot
of
questions.
So
I'm
gonna
start
with
council
member
crabill
and
bear
in
mind
that
we
do
have
15
minutes
for
questions.
C
C
Lot
of
our
number
of
the
parts
of
the
plan
talked
about
the
increase
in
law
enforcement
with
regard
to
traffic
stops
and.
C
Whether
it's
the
innocent
project
project,
the
urban
institute,
strong
towns,
discuss
how
traffic
stops
do
more
harm
than
good.
Do
you
agree
that
more
interaction
between
armed
officers
and
the
public
increases
the
risk
of
harm
that
maybe
we
would
be
trading
one
risk
for
another.
J
The
law
enforcement
is
is
actually
just
one
of
many
strategies
and
recommendations,
and
actually,
if
I
require
and
and
jeffrey
could
add
to
that
during
the
course
of
the
planning
studies,
I
will
actually
talk
about
that
too,
and
also
with.
I
would
note
that
the
assistant
chief
police
chief
from
sierra
momentum
of
statue,
we
recognize
that
actually
giving
up
tickets.
J
It's
not
it's
just
one
of
the
ways
you
know
to
slow
down
your
traffic
and
to
reduce
the
amount
of
accidents,
but
we
don't
want
to
neglect
that
either
and
so
yeah.
It's
just
one
of
the
many
tools
that
that
needs
for
for
making
it
a
safer
place
to
live
so
yeah.
We,
we
wouldn't
say:
oh
yeah,
stop
giving
our
tickets,
but
we
recognize
there's
so
many
other
ways
like
jennifer
was
saying
the
community.
J
Change
and
other
ways
at
the
education
we
go
to
the
school
districts
and
it
takes
everybody.
It's
not
just
tickets.
C
Right
right,
thank
you
and
one.
I
you
may
know
some
of
the
ways
that
can
lessen
the
need,
for
you
know:
traffic
enforcement,
automated
speed
enforcement
red
light
cameras,
which
is
old
technology
and
even
technology
with
regard
to
recording
interactions
with
officers
that
actually
are
getting
to
the
point
where
the
stop
can
be
totally
virtual.
So
I
hope
that
those
types
of
things
you
know
can
be
looked
at
and
my
last
question
topic
would
be
on
road
design.
C
I'm
going
to
give
a
statement
and
see
if
you
agree
with
it
generally
speaking,
narrow,
traveling,
shorter
block
lengths
tree
canopies
all
contribute
to
drivers,
traveling
traveling
more
slowly.
Conversely,
wide
lanes,
long
block
lengths
and
open
skies
communicate
to
drivers
that
higher
speeds
are
appropriate.
J
I
would
say
for
for
the
most
part,
I
do
because
population
change
development
pattern
change
the
roads
that
were
designed
50
years
ago,
but
not
well
for
today's
traffic
and
so
yeah
the
the
complete
street
concept.
I
think
it's
kind
of
related
to
what
you
were
talking
about:
try
to
accommodate
cyclists,
what
you
know-
pedestrians
enroll
I
mean
autos
in
and
so
whether
it's
long
block
or
softer
block.
I
think
it's
really
hard
to
look
at
the
whole
picture.
That's
the
part!
J
Development
pattern,
but
I
think
definitely
the
other
factors.
Definitely
it
should
be
looked
at.
I
think
narrower
lanes.
People
call
those
road
diets
would
be
good.
I
think
it's
been
successful
in
many
places.
C
Would
be
lessened
rather
than
increasing
in
law
enforcement,
so
that'll
be
all
for
me.
Thank
you.
B
Thank
you,
council.
Member
next
is
council
member
matthew.
O
Thanks
mayor,
thank
you
for
the
presentation.
I
appreciate
it.
I
was
actually
chiming
in
to
talk
about
road
diets
as
well
when
we
passed
the
the
the
smart
or
the
master
bikes
master
plan
that
included
the
temporary
striping
of
washington
street.
O
I
remember
that
I
had
people
who
actually
came
to
my
store
and
screamed
at
me
that
we
were
going
to
be
killing
children
during
that
point
of
time,
and
those
same
people
came
back
three
months
later
and
said
you
know,
I'm
really
sorry
I
apologize,
but
traffic
legitimately
is
slower
on
washington
street
through
the
founders
grove
area.
Now
that
we
put
the
bike
lanes
in
it
did
make
people
slow
down
with
those
narrower
lanes.
O
So
I
I
definitely
agree
that
road
diets
are
a
way
to
go,
not
to
mention
as
we
build
wider
roads,
it
costs
more
money
to
repave
and
fix
those
roads
as
we
go
along,
so
anything
we
can
do
to
naturally
cause
people
to
slow
down.
I
think
is
a
good
thing.
That
being
said,
I
actually
think
that
we
should
be
careful
of
hyperbole
about
the
danger
of
traffic
stops
as
well.
At
the
same
time,
in
that
you
know,
they're,
it's
a
tricky
subject,
it's
a
difficult
subject,
but
it
doesn't
necessarily.
O
We
don't
want
to
try
to
villainize
bloomington
police
department
because
of
of
simple
traffic
stops.
You
know,
as
somebody
who
was
definitely
accused
of
having
a
lead
foot
in
my
younger
years,
the
the
speeding
tickets,
probably
weren't.
What
slowed
me
down?
It
was
the
increases
in
my
car
insurance
because
of
the
speeding
tickets.
That
made
me
rethink
my
culture
of
of
going
faster
than
I
probably
should
have.
So,
let's
just
be
be
careful
of
some
of
that
rhetoric.
That's
not
necessary
in
this
conversation
thanks.
B
Thank
you,
councilmember
matthew
next
is
councilmember
martini.
P
Hi,
thank
you
appreciate
hearing
from
you
today.
This
is
a
huge
topic.
You
know.
For
over
a
hundred
years
there
have
been
organizations,
including
the
federal
government,
trying
to
improve
traffic
safety.
P
So
while
it's
important
to
have
people
involved
in
thinking
about
opportunities
for
improvement,
the
root
causes
associated
with
traffic
safety
are
very
broad
and
very
systemic,
and
really
it
would
be
impossible
to
action
them
in
alignment
with
the
vision
statements
that
have
been
so.
If
the
intention
is
to
be
aspirational
and
to
create
awareness,
I
understand
that
I
just
you
know
I'm
offering
just
a
bit
of
a
pragmatic
suggestion
here
that
the
ability
to
achieve
the
vision
will
require.
P
You
know
looking
at
liquor
licenses
looking
at
lifestyles,
looking
at
incredible
things
that
really,
I
feel
perhaps
we
would
make
progress,
but
I'm
skeptical
that
the
vision
would
be
able
to
be
realized
in
the
time
frame
that
you
have
laid
out.
J
Thank
you
for
the
comments.
I
get
really
hoped
it
is
a
committee
effort
it.
It
seems
yeah
by
2030.
We
we're
like
nine
years
away
it.
It
takes
a
lot
right
and
we
have
to
start
from
somewhere.
J
Just
remember
a
few
years
ago
we
had
those
fatalities,
people
trying
to
cross
or
fatalities
on
veterans
pathway.
You
know
those
might
have
been
avoided,
so
I
believe
we
have
to
start
from
some.
You
know
some
way
we
hope.
Behavior
change
takes
time.
We
all
know
that,
and
so
we
just
start
and
do
our
part
and
we'll
get
it
closer
to
the
to
the
end,
hopefully
achieving
the
goal.
But
if
not,
if
we're
eighty
percent
ninety
percent-
that
would
be
good,
but
we
have
to
start
some.
J
That's
why
your,
whether
endorsement
of
this
plan
or
adopting
a
version
of
or
adjustment
whatever,
that
would
give
us
some
idea.
What's
the
better
approach,
should
we
go
out
by
ourselves?
We,
you
know
work
with
collaborating,
you
know
with
other
governmental
agencies
and
stuff.
Really
this
is
a
community-wide
issue,
and
so
we
should
work
together.
I
believe
and
that
we
can
got
that
established
and
then
we
can
like
suggest
that
we
then
aim
for
the
goal.
P
So
ray
I,
I
know
I
spent
the
first
20
years
of
my
career
handling,
auto
injury
cases
and
continue
to
work
with
someone
whose
daughter
was
tragically
killed
by
a
drunk
driver
who's,
currently
working
with
many
organizations
for
federal
legislation
in
order
to
prevent
people
driving
while
intoxicated
with
technology.
P
J
No,
I
I
think
it's
good
points
I
mean
even
we
need
all
your
help.
The
plan
doesn't
stop
here
I
mean
I
think,
looking
at
the
liquor
license,
you
know
that's
as
there's
a
great
suggestion.
There
may
be
other
ways
that
we
should
look
into
in
terms
of
building
up
data
looking
at
the
different
ways
to
implement,
don't
be
bound
by
the
just
this
document
right,
because,
if
there's
other
new
ideas
beyond
this
document,
yeah,
let
us
know
yo
whatever
works
to
to.
We
need
to
get
to
that
zero.
B
Okay,
thank
you
very
much.
I
see
quite
a
few
hands
here
and
I
I
can
sense
that
we're
probably
gonna
go
over
time
in
terms
of
the
time
allotted
so
maybe
I
should
entertain
a
motion
to
extend
the
time
I
I
would
suggest
15
minutes,
because
I
can.
I
can
see
with
six
or
seven
hands.
This
is
gonna
go
much
further
than
we
we
thought
so
it
looks
like
council
member
carrillo
has
her
hand
up,
and
then
I
will
take.
Would
that
be
a
second
councilmember
bowling.
O
G
O
O
G
So,
thank
you.
Thank
you
for
the
presentation
and
the
information
I
want
to
just
piggyback
on
two
things,
one.
I
agree
with
council
member
matthew,
let's,
let's
not
focus
on
something
that
I
don't
think
was
intended
here,
which
is
the
the
focus
on
the
police
from
that
side
of
it,
but
also
what
councilman
romani
talked
about
is,
I
think,
focusing
on
the
aspirational
things
and
the
culture
of
things
is
nice.
I
I
think
your
your
ability
to
impact
that
without
huge
cost
is,
is
questionable.
G
What
I'd
like
to
see
is
is
an
example,
a
pareto
analysis
of
the
the
causes
of
fatalities
in
this
community
over
the
last
10
years
and
then
look
at
okay.
Was
it
drunk
driving?
Was
it
accidents
involving
speeding?
Was
it
what
was
it
and
attack
each
one
of
those
individually,
and
I
think
you'd
get
more
quick
return
by
focusing
that
way
than
focusing
on
an
aspirational
thing.
That's
going
to
be
years
in
building
a
culture.
G
F
Thank
you
and
thank
you
for
the
work.
I
read
the
packet
that
large
booklet
you
put
out
and
there's
lots
of
information.
You
said
that
this
is
funded
by
the
by
idot.
Do
you
mean
that
the
study
was
funded
by
idot
or
all
these
improvements
are
going
to
be
funded
by
idot?
Just.
J
Just
a
study,
it's
just
the
study
about
itself
yeah
the
improvements
such
as
implementation
later.
F
Okay,
so
this
could
cost
the
city
quite
a
bit
of
money.
I
do
know
that
route
9
is
committed
to
having
bike
lanes
put
in
when
they
resurface
and
that
in
and
of
itself
is
going
to
cost
the
city
quite
a
million
quite
of
a
lot
of
money-
and
I
am
not
at
all
in
favor
of
that
micro
mobility
option
and
if
we
had
like
boardwalks
or
boulevards
that
had
limited
traffic
or
like
how
they
closed
off
state
street
in
downtown
chicago.
F
That
would
be
one
thing,
but
even
still
a
lot
of
the
people
on
that
are
pedestrians,
don't
like
those
micro
mobility,
things
for
for
very
good
reason
and
they
they're
not
visible.
There
are
people
in
my
neighborhood
that
that
use
them,
and
I
can't
see
them
when
I'm
driving,
so
it's
actually
more
dangerous
to
promote
some
something
like
that
than
than
other
options,
and
I'm
going
to
get
on
my
soapbox
here.
F
Ward
2
does
not
have
any
bus
service.
There
are
very
few
and
far
between
sidewalks.
There
are
people
that
walk
down
veterans,
parkway,
heading
west,
on
a
two-lane
road
at
night,
with
no
street
lights,
all
weather.
During
all
weathers
and
all
seasons
of
the
year,
so
I
think
that
that
might
be
a
place
to
start
I'll
end.
J
It
there
totally
agree
and
my
staff
could
testify.
I've
told
them
complaining
the
same
thing
that
you
just
talk
about:
how
dangerous
that
that
round
nine
veterans
power
area-
I
see
so
many
people
getting
off
the
bus
or
get
on
the
bus
or
causing
six
lane
roadway
without
sidewalks
without
pedestrian
lights.
But
I
would
note
also,
though,
some
of
the
roadways
I
got
owned.
This
is
not
city
home,
and
so
we
have
to
work
with
idot,
also
and
and
safety
I
think,
is-
is
high
priority.
J
B
M
Hey,
thank
you
so
much
for
the
presentation
really
appreciate
it.
A
great
initiative.
I
want
to
echo
some
of
council
member
cravel's
comments.
I
don't,
I
think
it's
absolutely
relevant
to
talk
about
police
when
we're
talking
about
speeding
and
traffic
enforcement,
and
I
think
that
we
can
have
valid
critiques
of
what
some
of
those
solutions
might
like
what
the
byproducts
of
some
of
the
solutions
might
be,
and
I
think
that's
fair
gaming.
M
I
don't
think
that's
villainizing
anybody,
but
I
think
it's
a
matter
of
fact
that
the
you
know
that
pretextual
stops.
Oftentimes
are
the
reasons
that
we
see
higher
profile
use
of
force
incidents
including
fatal
use
of
force
incidents.
And
so
I
do
think
that
there
is
a
very
high
cost,
particularly
if,
if
the
narrative,
especially
in
some
parts
of
the
west
side,
and
particularly
with
folks
of
color,
is
we
are
getting
pulled
over
for
any
old
reason.
F
Went
to
a
point
of
order,
we're
talking
about
the
vision,
zero,
we're
not
going
off
topic
onto
relevance.
B
M
Yeah,
so
to
me,
this
is
about
enforcement
right
and
anything
that
we
do.
That
invites
stronger,
more
aggressive
enforcement
feeds
that
narrative
feeds
those
incidents,
and
so
I'm
supportive
of
the
plan
as
a
whole,
but
would
be
extremely
cautious
to
support
anything
that
actually
breaks
life
into
more
aggressive
enforcement,
particularly
because
there's
a
ton
of
data
that
points
to
us
that
it
just
isn't
very
effective
and
that
we
lose
a
lot
of
community
trust
in
enforcing
some
of
these
smaller
smaller
laws,
the
culture
changing
stuff.
M
I
think
the
difficult
and
costly
gets
actually
at
the
heart
of
the
matter,
and-
and
that's
I
think,
that's
the
road
that
I'd
like
to
see
us
go
down.
Thank
you.
B
Q
Thank
you
and
I'll
say
the
same
thing.
Thanks
for
the
presentation,
a
lot
of
points
have
already
been
made.
I
just
want
to
point
out
that
I
recently
had
a
conversation
with
a
constituent
who
lives
on
evans.
It's
a
brick
street,
that's
kind
of
falling
apart,
but
but
I
asked
her
so
what
do
you
think
about
this
street
and
she
said
I
love
that
it
slows
traffic
down.
Q
I
mean
I
think
that
notion
that
we
can
make
the
community
much
safer
if
if
people
are
on
a
road
diet,
it's
my
new
favorite
phrase,
but
above
and
beyond
that
I
mean
we
passed
the
rick
street's
plan.
We
we
have
many
many
plans
that
we've
passed
and
essentially
they're
unfunded
a
lot
of
them.
So
what
would
I
would
find
most
helpful
here
is
that
really
data
driven
root
cause
analysis
of
what?
Why
are
these
accidents
happening?
Q
What
is
causing
the
greatest
level
of
harm
and
then
prioritize?
You
know
what
what
is
one
thing
very
concrete
that
we
can
do
and
and
achieve
and
start
to
analyze
its
effectiveness
going
forward.
And
finally,
I
just
want
to
put
a
pluck
out
for
like
the
safe
routes
to
school
grants.
Those
are
amazing.
We
got
some
fabulous
new
sidewalks
around
sheridan
recently,
and
this
this
seems
to
me
like
a
way
towards
that
kind
of
actualization.
B
Thank
you,
council,
member
emig,
and
it
looks
like
we
have
a
council
member
crumpler.
H
Yes,
thank
you.
Many
of
the
points
that
I
wanted
to
make
have
already
been
talked
about.
I
do
agree
with
councilmember
becker
that
I
would
really
like
to
see
a
focus
on.
You
know
what
is
causing
fatalities
and
and
that
sort
of
thing
in
this
community,
and
so
that
I
guess
I'm
I
would
be
in
favor
of
a
more
finely
grained
analysis
on
that
level.
H
I
I
also
feel,
like
you
know
what
you
know,
that
this
is
such
an
ambitious
plan
and-
and
I
I
love
ambition,
I'm
a
little
concerned
about
it's-
it's
viability
in
the
time
frame
in
which
you've
set
yourselves
in
order
to
make
it
work.
I
think
councilmember
motney
also
mentioned
this.
So
again,
I
I
think
you
know
setting
up
benchmarks
things
along
the
way
that
help
us
know.
How
are
we
doing
as
we
implement
a
plan
like
this,
I
think,
would
be
really
imperative.
So
thank
you.
B
Okay,
I
see,
I
still
see
okay
council
member
crave
a
little
bit
real
quickly
because
we're
getting
close
to
yes.
This
will.
C
Be
quickly
so
wasn't
saying
anything
against
law
enforcement,
it's
just
the
fact
that
these
stops
can
be
dangerous
both
for
the
officer
and
the
person
being
stopped.
C
I
know
from
from
looking
at
some
reports
that
are
the
number
of
speeding
citations
that
have
been
given
by
the
police
department
and
traffic
citations
have
gone
down
over
the
last
10
years
and
I
would
want
that
to
continue,
and
you
know
a
couple
of
people
have
talked
about
the
difficulty
in
implementing
this
plan
and
like
with
anything,
if
there's
an
issue
that
nobody
else
can
solve,
we
ask
the
police
to
do
it,
so
I'm
just
concerned
that,
ultimately,
all
these
other
things,
the
focus-
is
going
to
be
on
on
law
enforcement
to
try
to
get
us
to
the
numbers
that
we
want
to
get
to
for
these
safe
streets.
B
Okay,
thank
you
very
much,
everybody
ray
and
jennifer.
I
I
think
you
know
from
what
I
gather
it.
It
sounds
like
you
might
have
some
refining
to
do,
and
I
don't
know
you
know.
I
think
that's
the
that's
my
impression.
You
know
my
sense
of
the
council
and
you
know
I
wanted
to
also
ask
what
what
is
the
you
know
in
light
of
that.
B
What's
the
next
step
for
for
you,
guys
and
and
particularly
as
you
you've
mentioned,
that
you
wanted
the
the
council
and
other
bodies
to
to
endorse
the
plan.
J
Yeah
well
we're
doing
kind
of
a
similar
presentation
you
know
to
to
the
town
normal
and
then
also
the
county,
the
the
tre,
that
is
to
start
with
the
county's
traffic
committee
or
transportation
committee,
and
then
we
also
got
invited
to
other
community
organizations
to
kind
of
inform
them
to
educate
them
about
the
plan,
and
we
definitely.
This
is
also
the
we
recognize
is
the
city's
prerogative.
If
you
want
to
develop
and
whatnot,
I
would
just
say
yeah.
J
Sometimes
it
may
take
there's
so
many
tools
in
the
toolbox
and
we
recognize
we
don't
get
every
one
hour,
we're
not
able
to
do
it
at
the
same
time
and
we
have
to
prioritize
a
way
to
look
at
the
data.
We
have
to
look
at
what
other
grant
opportunities
there
are
out
there
to
help
to
fund
even
some
further
studies
on
the
safety
tools
and
and
other
things.
So
it's
it's
a
major
effort,
but
it's
really
down
to
our
areas.
You
know
reputation
to
our
families,
friends
in
safety.
J
We
have
to
start
somewhere
but
we'll
work
with
the
the
city
manager's
office
and
your
staff
to
just
see
what
would
be
the
next
step
should
be
you're.
Given
your
feedback,
and
I
really
appreciate
all
your
feedback
and
just
see
what
would
be
an
appropriate
ways
to
go.
I
mean
that's.
That's
as
jennifer
was
to
be
saying,
and
it's
some
of
you
have
read
all
of
you-
have
read
the
documents
there's
so
many
toolbox.
J
I
mean
too
many
tools
in
the
in
the
in
the
toolbox
and
we
have
only
so
many
people
to
work
on
it,
and
so
we
have
to
engage
the
community
and
then
see
who
can
do
what,
and
I
think
our
goal
is
the
same-
is
safety
it's
zero.
Nobody
get
killed,
nobody
gets
injured,
so
I
think
we
have
the
same
goal.
We
just
yeah
how?
How
do
we
achieve
that
and
how.
B
Yeah,
okay.
Well,
thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much.
I
appreciate
that
and
I
and
I
think
you
know
the
the
goal
is
you
know
it's
a
aspirational
and
I
think
it
it's
great
and
at
the
very
least
you
know
it
puts
this
on
the
radar
for
everyone
and
for
the
community
to
to
begin
a
conversation.
You
know
how
we
get
there.
I
think
it's
just
you
know,
probably
a
matter
of
fine-tuning
things.
You
know
as
we
go,
but
we
definitely
appreciate
it.
Thank
you
so
much
for
your
presentation.
J
J
B
Next
item
on
our
agenda
is
a
presentation
of
the
proposed
2021
to
2023
iq
strategic
plan
by
our
own
craig
macbeth
everybody's
best
friend.
B
But
I'm
gonna
ask
city
manager
gleason
to
tee
this
off
for
us
first
and
then
we'll
hear
from
craig.
Thank
you.
E
Thank
you,
mayor
and
council,
and
to
the
bloomington
community.
This
is
something
when
craig
took
the
position
as
an
interim
in
april
of
2020,
and
then
a
couple
of
months
later
was
chosen
as
the
I.t
director,
so
he's
coming
up
on
a
year,
but
he's
a
longtime
city,
employee
and
the
to-do
list
was
rather
lofty
for
him,
but
at
the
top
of
that
list
is
what's
being
presented
tonight.
The
plan
for
us
internally
and
externally
you
throw
covet
in
there.
E
You
know
where
he
stood
up
an
organization
to
make
sure
that
we
could
function
virtually
where
we
can
conduct
the
business
of
the
city
in
this
setting
virtually,
and
it's
quite
amazing
that
he's
been
able
to
accomplish
this
with
very
good
help.
His
department
is
small
but
mighty,
and
we
have
you
know
the
good
fortune
of
having
mark
owens
here
on
contract.
E
D
D
D
L
So
the
it
strategy
we've
developed
is
really
designed
to
ensure
that
we
align
each
of
these.
It
initiative
that
we
speak
to
to
an
established
organizational
goal
that
the
city
has
so
really
to
effectively
enable
those
goals
it's
going
to
require
us
to
invest
in
a
strong
and
a
stable
underlying
infrastructure.
L
D
Thanks
mark,
so
what
does
that
mean?
You
know
from
an
I.t
perspective,
it
means
organizing
our
department's
financial,
technical
and
human
resources
around
the
city's
organizational
goals,
ensuring
that
that
everything
that
we
do
in
the
it
department
meets
a
city
goal
one
or
more
city
goals.
We
want
to
make
decisions
with
the
focus
on
long-term
investments,
to
prioritize
our
initiatives
based
on
that
value.
D
From
our
organizational
standpoint,
we
want
to
ensure
that
we
are
investing
in
technology
to
provide
business
value
and
future
growth
as
well.
The
city
is
certainly
planning
on
continued
growth,
including
all
new
new
technology
expectations
and
requirements
that
are
coming
our
way,
changing
priorities
and
new
initiatives
that
come
to
us.
You
know
every
quarter.
This
growth
is
going
to
put
some
pressure,
you
know
on
our
existing
services
and
infrastructure,
and
our
challenge
is
as
we
work
through.
D
D
What
we've
done
is
we've
def,
you
know
taken
the
defined
city
goals
that
you
see
in
the
middle
of
the
screen
there
and
we've
established
I.t
goals
that
will
align
with
each
of
those
city
goals
from
that
we've
defined
a
number
of
I.t
initiatives
that
we'll
see
a
little
bit
later.
That
also
allow
us
to
execute
on
those
it
goals.
So
when
you
look
at
an
I.t
strategy
as
a
holistic
standpoint,
it
encompasses
the
I.t
vision
and
mission
and
the
city
goals
and
the
I.t
goals
the
guiding
principles
that
we
use.
D
We've
got
reliable
infrastructure.
We've
got
a
great
system.
We've
got
an
excellent
help
desk
that
has
proven
on
the
again
the
surveys
and
diagnostics
we
run,
but
we
want
to
be
better.
You
know
at
the
end
of
the
strategic
plan
we
want
to
be
at
that
partner
or
innovator
level,
and
this
slide
really
highlights
that
journey,
and
we
need
to
also
understand
this
slide
as
it
is
truly
stair
stepped
along.
The
way
we
do
have
to
take
every
step
along
the
way.
D
And
as
we
transition
to
those
higher
levels,
our
human
resources
will
be
key
to
this
transition.
Our
staff
are,
as
as
tim
mentioned,
you
know,
we're
small
mighty.
We've
got
excellent
staff
here
at
the
city
of
bloomington,
especially
in
the
it
department,
and
we
need
to
be
able
to
focus
our
efforts
on
the
most
critical
functions
and
initiatives
that
we
have
available
based
on
rit
goals.
Here's
a
number
of
areas
that
we've
identified
that
we
need
to
make
progress
on
or
would
like
to
make
progress
on
by
the
time
the
strategic
plan
is
done.
D
So
you
see,
on
the
left
hand,
side
that
reiterates
our
it
goals
that
we
developed
and
some
of
those
areas
again
are,
for
example,
modernization
enhancement
of
critical
infrastructure,
making
sure
that
we're
able
to
do
future
innovative
initiatives
when
that
time
comes,
we
want
to
always
look
for
ways
to
automate
across
the
organization,
reducing
manual
processes
as
much
as
possible
and
increasing
efficiencies.
So
that
way
it
is
easy
to
do
business
with
the
city,
both
internally
and
from
a
citizen
standpoint.
D
D
We
want
to
create
adaptive,
I.t
environments
that
can
quickly
adjust
to
organizational
changes.
Technology
today
is
changing
at
a
faster
and
faster
pace,
more
so
than
it
ever
has
been.
So
we
need
to
be
able
to
stay
on
top
of
that,
and
then
we
want
to
certainly
enhance
our
current
project
intake
to
ensure
that
our
approved
projects
are
aligned
to
organizational
priorities
right
now,
it's
very
important
that
one
of
the
key
aspects
of
the
it
strategy
is
be
able
to
prioritize
all
the
initiatives
that
we
have.
L
So,
as
you
can
see,
we
have
in
the
next
couple
slides
listed
our
top
24
initiatives
and
there's
a
bunch
more
after
this
as
well.
But
these
are
our
top
24
and,
as
you
can
see
in
the
slide,
many
of
these
are
already
underway.
We're
being
worked
on
and
some
that
are
going
to
be
starting
up
here
soon
and
as
we
indicate
earlier,
many
of
these
initiatives
are
going
to
kind
of
build,
upgrade
or
modernize
key
parts
of
our
infrastructure.
L
D
So
we
need
some
key
takeaways
from
this
areas
that
we're
going
to
need
to
be
able
to
focus
on
for
the
strategic
plan.
The
first
one
is
making
sure
that
we
engage
the
organization
proactively
being
in
those
conversations
with
departments
about
technology
needs
at
an
early
enough
stage,
so
we
can
ensure
that
that
project
is
successful
and
as
efficient
as
possible.
D
We
want
to
augment
operational
tools,
making
sure
that
our
staff
has
the
tools
they
need
again
to
be
as
efficient
as
possible,
and
then
we
reinforce
the
idea
of
prioritization
again
and
that
stronger
emphasis
on
project
intake.
We
need
to
be
able
to
make
sure
that
the
projects
that
we're
functioning
and
working
on
today
match
and
support
the
city
goals,
because
if
right
now,
if
nothing
is
a
priority,
then
everything
becomes
a
priority.
D
D
D
You
know
multiple
times
throughout
the
year
and
get
back
to
you
if
there's
any
major
changes,
but
really
the
next
steps
is
that
we
are
seeking
your
consideration.
Approval
of
this
plan
for
next
week's
city
council
meeting
and
while
there's
really
no
financial
commitment
to
this
plan,
it's
really
a
simply
a
shared
understanding
of
where
we
need
to
progress
with
the
city
to
meet
the
city's
vision.
D
B
Muted,
sorry,
thank
you
very
much,
craig
and
mark
for
your
wonderful
presentation.
I
I
have
a
sense
that
we
have
a
couple
of
I.t
people
on
council
who
might
have
some
questions
so
we're
gonna
start
with
a
council
member
becker.
G
G
G
So
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
you
know
I
I
gather
since
mark's
nodding,
but
you
know
that
we
really
focus
on
this
as
we
choose
those
top
24
and
make
sure
that
we
don't
I'm
not
advocating
spending
any
amount
of
money
here
yet,
but
I'm
just
saying:
let's
not
be
penny
wise
and
pound
foolish,
as
we
don't
get
the
infrastructure
to
a
place
where
it
can
support
the
initiatives
that
become
mandatory.
P
Craig
I'll
start
with
just
a
short
question
when
other
areas
invest
in
technology,
say,
for
example,
if
public
works
is
going
to
purchase
software,
I'm
assuming
it
comes
with
a
cost
benefit
analysis
and
generally
there
be
pledge
labor
cost
savings.
As
an
example
is
your
organization
partner
with
them
in
the
procurement
process,
then.
D
D
The
hope
is
that
all
those
conversations
happen
through
the
it
department
and
we
do
the
evaluation
to
make
sure
that
we
have
everything
considered
as
much
as
we
possibly
can
also
evaluate
whether
we
have
existing
systems
in
the
city
already
or
currently,
to
make
sure
that
they're
either
not
buying
something
in
duplicative
mode
or
that
we're
actually
maybe
there's
a
better
way
to
do
some
of
those
same
things
with
our
existing
technology.
D
That
goes
back
to
the
focus
area
of
being
at
the
table
at
the
right
time.
During
those
conversations
to
to
have
those
conversations
up
front
to
make
sure
they
know
what
we
have
available,
but
certainly
depending
on
the
size
of
the
project,
we
will
certainly
do
cost-benefit
analysis
on
the
larger
ones.
Where
those
make
sense,
we
may
not
do
it
on
the
smaller
ones,
where
it's
when
it's
more
obvious,
but
certainly
on
the
larger
ones.
P
So
I
guess
you
know
the
next
question
then,
would
be
I'm
assuming
there's
a
benefit,
even
if
not
a
cost
savings,
or
we
wouldn't
be
purchasing
whatever
solution,
we're
looking
for
which
area
tracks
benefits
recovery.
D
E
I'll
jump
in
real,
quick
and
share
some
additional
comments.
The
question
about
not
just
the
I.t
department,
but
that's
a
critical
function
for
the
entire
organization
over
the
past
couple
of
years.
E
Far
more
interaction
between
the
departments
to
understand
what
the
impacts
are
on
one
another
I.t
setting
at
the
table
is
was
definitely
a
priority,
a
charge
for
craig,
and
we
knew
that
that
needed
to
occur
as
far
as
realizing
some
of
the
improvements
and
some
of
the
return
on
investment.
If
you
will
that's
that's
very
much
part
of
the
budget
process
every
year
as
we
review
the
ask
of
the
different
department
directors
chris
tomerlin,
the
budget
manager,
scott
rathbun,
obviously,
as
the
finance
director
and
myself.
E
P
All
right,
so,
with
regard
to
projects
that
are
being
queued
up
for
you
and
your
intake
process
generally,
it
would
be
my
recommendation
that
how
we
do
the
work
in
the
actual
mechanics
of
the
process
should
be
evaluated
before
we
try
to
optimize
with
technology,
because
that
keeps
us
from
investing
in
technology
to
automate
something
that
doesn't
need
to
be
done
and
then
just
leaving
with
the
benefits
recovery
tracking
that
on
a
persistent
basis
and
creating
a
level
of
discipline
around.
P
So
I
would
double
down
on
every
purchase
to
understand
the
benefits
being
pledged
generally
from
a
labor
cost
savings
perspective
and
making
sure
we're
capturing
that
so
that
we
know
what
those
labor
hours
are,
that
we've
actually
reduced
in
cost,
and
then
that
can
provide
an
opportunity
for
either
a
cost
reduction
on
behalf
of
the
constituents
and
the
residents
of
bloomington
and
be
something
that
you
know
might
be.
A
source
to
look
at
for
any
needed,
labor
cost
shifting
to
invest
in
it.
B
Okay,
next
is
councilman
bowling.
F
F
D
Okay,
yeah
no
prior
wireless
network
is
our
our
private
networking
infrastructure
that
we
have
around
the
media
downtown
corridor
in
really
supporting
private
security
cameras
and
other
internet
services
such
as
our
wireless
water
meters
and
and
various
infrastructure
that
we
use.
So
it's
it's
a
wireless
network
that
we
built
throughout
the
city
of
bloomington,
but
primarily
around
the
downtown
corridor.
At
this
time,.
F
Okay
and
number
16,
I
guess
it's
going
to
improve
fire
department
alerts.
Could
you
explain
how
that
is,
and
a
second
part
is:
is
there
any
advantage
or
use
that
could
help
with
the
police
department's
response
to
an
emergency.
D
Okay,
so
number
16
is
actually
a
good
example
and-
and
I
probably
won't
speak
to
it
as
well
as
chief
westwood,
but
that
was
a
project
that
we
worked
with
the
fire
department
on
to
integrate
the
cad
system,
our
our
computer-aided
dispatch
system
to
the
fire
departments.
D
It
allowed
some
increased
technology
in
each
station
to
be
able
to
automate
the
notifications
to
the
firefighters
that
there's
an
alert
or
emergency
and
to
do
it
in
a
safe
manner,
making
sure
that
people
are
getting
notified.
That
they've
got
a
countdown
timer.
They
can
see
their
progress
and
see
their
performance
and
then
also
it
decreases.
The
response
time
to
the
to
the
incidents.
F
D
And
then
your
second
question
again
was
about
the
police
interaction.
If
there's
any
type
of
initiative
that
supports
you
know
the
response
that
police
do
for
incidents.
Is
that
correct.
F
Well,
yeah
it's
in
relation
to
the
metcom,
where
there's
a
delay-
and
I
was
just
wondering
if
you
know,
if
you're
improving
fire
alert
system.
If
there
was
some
kind
of
system
that
the
police
could
use.
For
you
know
some
kind
of
accident
we
were
talking
about
earlier
accident
on
the
road.
You
know
the
police
need
to
come.
The
fire
needs
to
come.
Emt
needs
to
show
up.
So
that's
what
I
was
wondering
if
there
was
something.
D
Not
directly
but
but
certainly
you
know,
the
fire
station
alerting
system
is
already
built
on
the
computer-aided
dispatch
system
that
the
police
department
has
and
it's
very
functional
and
very
well
performing
system,
and
that's
why
we're
leveraging
that
same
technology
for
the
fire
department
as
well.
B
Thank
you,
okay.
Thank
you
very
much.
Councilmember
boland.
I
know
we
are
past
our
time,
so
I'm
gonna
ask
for
another
motion
to
extend.
Let's
do
10
minutes
is
that
okay,
I
see
I
have.
We
have
three
hands
here.
I.
B
Okay,
let's
just
do
15
minutes
is
that,
okay
with
you
just
in
case
sure,
okay,
all
right
sounds
good
motion
by
councilmember
bowling
and
then
it
looks
like
a
second
by
councilman
crumpler.
Is
that
correct,
okay,
awesome?
Madam
clerk,
would
you
please
call
the
role.
B
N
Thank
you
for
this
presentation.
I
have
kind
of
one
brief
question
with
maybe
just
a
little
bit
of
explanation,
I'm
wondering
what
kind
of
mechanisms
there
are
for.
First
public
stakeholder
feedback
about.
N
City
websites
and
and
I.t
functionality,
and
the
reason
I'm
asking
this
may
be
to
to
continue
with
alderman
becker's
kitchen
metaphor:
it's
it's!
Yes.
I
wholeheartedly
agree
that
the
you
know
focus
on
the
the
plumbing
and
the
infrastructure
and
and
so
forth,
is
hugely
important
and
picking
up
on
on
alderwoman
monteney's
questions
around
around
cost
and
and
so
forth.
N
I
think
those
are
hugely
important,
but
in
at
the
end
of
the
day,
somebody's
got
to
cook
dinner
or
we're
all
going
to
go
hungry,
and
I
think
that
that
it's
pretty
important
to
pay
attention
to
the
specific
needs
and
and
necessities
of
the
person,
who's,
cooking
dinner
and
ultimately
there
are.
There
are
two
chefs
in
this
kitchen.
Of
course
there
are
the
city,
staff
and
city
elected
officials,
people.
N
You
know
the
city
itself
in
terms
of
of
people
who
work
for
the
city,
but
there's
there
are
also
the
the
the
residents
of
the
city
and,
and
I'm
just
wondering
what
kind
of
mechanisms
there
are
along
the
way,
not
just
sort
of
at
a
final
presentation
with
public
comment.
But
what
mechanisms
are
there
to
test
out
some
of
these
things
and
and
say
how's?
This
working
for
you,
you
know,
is
the
height
of
this
counter,
the
right
height
for
you?
N
Is
it
an
electric
oven
or
a
gas
oven
that
you're
looking
for
you
know
that
kind
of
thing,
because
if
I
had
a
nickel
for
every
time,
somebody
tried
to
update
something
and
it
just
I
didn't
ask
for
it.
I
didn't
need
it.
It
doesn't
serve
my
purposes
and
now
I
can't
do
the
thing
that
I
really
need
to
do.
I
would
be
a
very
rich
person
and
I'm
not
saying
that
that
anyone
in
the
city
has
done
that,
but
I'm
just
wondering
again
by
a
long
way.
D
Sure
great
question,
I
would
say
a
lot
of
that
is
driven
by
the
individual
initiative
so
depending
on
the
the
initiative
on
so,
for
example,
the
city's
website.
We
do
use
extensive
ux
testing
and
usability
testing
throughout
the
community
with
different
areas
and
different
groups,
both
with
the
partner
that
we're
using
to
build
that
website.
Along
with
you
know,
hopefully,
you
know
additional
participation
from
area
groups
that
we
can
pull
as
well,
whether
it's
from
an
ada
or
accessibility
standpoint
to
just
a
functionality
standpoint
on
how
do
you,
how?
D
How
is
it
easier
to
pay
my
bill
going
it
this
way
or
is
it
looking
at
this
venue?
So
you
know
while
that?
Well,
I
think
the
premise
of
your
question
really
isn't
part
of
the
I.t
strategic
plan
at
that
level.
Certainly,
once
we
get
at
the
initiative
level,
that's
where
those
details
will
come
out
as
far
as
how
best
to
to
get
that
feedback.
D
You
know
I
don't
know
if
I
have
a
really
good
example,
because
a
number
again,
a
number
of
these
initiatives
are
really
internal
infrastructure
initiatives
that
that
may
not
have
you
know,
opportunities
for
for
participation
like
like
public
participation,
but
we
will
be
also
leveraging
the
technology
commission
for
a
lot
of
this,
which
is
an
advisory
board.
You
know
that
we've
started
a
couple
years
ago
and
they've
been
instrumental
in
this
strategic
plan.
Development
as
well
they've,
been
through
the
presentation.
D
N
It
does,
and
you
know
it
it
just
gives
me
the
the
heads
up
that
that
I
need
to
keep
asking
the
question
along
the
way
when
those
individual
initiatives
do
come
up,
because
I
think
that's
going
to
be
essential
for
my
support
for.
B
All
right,
thank
you
very
much.
Next
is
a
council
member
crumpler,
but
no
no
cooking
metaphors,
because
I'm
getting
hungry.
H
Yes,
thank
you
thanks,
craig
and
mark
for
that
presentation,
though
you
know,
there's
certainly
a
lot
going
on.
My
question
is
really
specific
and
at
the
risk
of
sounding
slightly
paranoid,
you
know.
H
Cyber
security
is
a
global
issue
and
you
know
it
seems
like
regularly
in
the
popular
press,
I'm
reading
about
companies
being
held
hostage,
and
you
mentioned
ransomware,
and
I
just
wondered
if
you
could
comment
on
you
know
what,
if
you
know,
the
hackers
who
always
seem
to
be
one
step
ahead
of
the
designers
were
to
hack
it
and
try
to
hold
a
city
like
bloomington
hostage
what
kinds
of
security
software
are
you
have
do
you
have
in
mind
as
you
move
forward
in
this
initiative.
D
So
yeah
again
one
of
those
that
would
be
a
separate
initiative
where
the
details
of
that
would
certainly
be
vetted.
You
know
this
is
a
very
high
level
when
we
talk
about
the
strategic
plan
and
what
it
covers.
D
We
also
monitor
actively
monitor
active
security
incidents
to
make
sure,
especially
when
we
are
in
the
election
period,
to
make
sure
that
we're
on
top
of
that
and
preventing
anything
that
we
possibly
can
through
firewall
or
any
other
security
measure.
But
you
know
to
really
get
the
to
the
heart
of
your
question.
You
know
there's
there's
so
much
to
that
that
that
we
need
to
further
investigate.
D
It
is
one
of
the
areas
that
that
are
going
to
be
focused
on
very
soon.
In
fact,
as
I
mentioned
before,
one
of
our
latest
bloomington
normal
innovation
alliance
meetings,
we're
going
to
be
working
with
isu
and
wesley
and
on
the
formation
of
a
a
area-wide
security
consortium.
Basically
to
have
those
conversations
to
share
that
knowledge
and
expertise
within
each
other
and
maybe
even
gain
some
assistance
from
from
those
partners
to
help
us
and
make
sure
that
we're
as
safe
as
we
can
be.
B
Okay,
thank
you
councilmember
crumpler,
last
but
not
least,
councilmember
matthew
and
we
have
five
minutes
and
we
will
not
extend
further.
O
I
don't
know
the
five
minutes
is
going
to
get
it
done,
but
I'll
see
what
I
can.
No,
I
just
wanted
to
say
cray
and
mark.
Thank
you
for
all
the
hard
work
that
you
did
on
this.
You
know.
O
I
know
that
what
you
showed
us
in
the
three
on
ones
was
about
three
times
as
big
as
what
we
saw
tonight
because
of
time
constraints,
and
I
know
that
what
you
showed
us
in
the
three
on
ones
was
only
about
one
third
of
the
size
of
the
total
presentation
that
was
shown
to
the
the
technology
commission,
because
it
is
a
great
document.
It's
a
great
master
plan.
O
It
does
get
down
into
the
weeds,
and
you
know
if
you're
not
a
a
geek,
then
it
definitely
would
probably
fry
some
brains
along
the
way.
But
I'm
just
so
pleased
that
we're
moving
down
this
path,
because
when
I
was
first
elected,
I
like
to
tell
people
that
our
email
system
was
still
using
lotus
mail
and
you
know
which
of
course,
ibm
had
discontinued
like
in.
O
I
want
to
say
2010,
maybe
something
like
that,
maybe
earlier
than
that,
and
it
was
because
it
was
an
overhead
to
be
minimized
at
all
costs
and
shoved
into
the
corner
and
made
to
be
quiet
and
not
come
out
and
talk
to
anybody.
O
And
you
know
thank
you
to
tim
for
understanding
that
it
can
be
a
tool
to
make
people
more
productive,
to
make
staff
more
productive
to
make
other.
Our
residents
have
a
better
experience
in
integrating
with
the
city
and
working
with
the
city,
and
I
think
that
that
should
be.
You
know.
O
I
know
that's
part
of
our
plan
that
one
of
the
overriding
goals
of
this
whole
plan
is
to
make
staff
more
productive
and
citizens
more
engaged
right
and-
and
I
think
that
this
plan
goes
a
long
way
towards
towards
getting
us
on
the
platform.
You
know-
and
I
appreciate
also
that
the
the
honesty
that
went
into
some
of
the
self-evaluations
right-
it's
never
fun
to
be
that
honest
and
brutal
up
front
about
where
you're
at
and
what
you've
done.
O
So
I'm
just
was
happy
to
see
that
nobody
kind
of
glossed
that
one
over
and
we
were
honest
and
we
really
took
an
in-depth
look
at
how
we've
performed
in
the
past
and
what
we
need
to
do
to
get
better.
Thank
you
guys
for
all
the
hard
work
that
went
into
this.
Thank
you
for
all
the
outreach
to
various
stakeholders
and
and
everything
that
you've
done,
and
I
look
forward
to
seeing
where
this
takes
us
next
to
make
things
better
for
everybody
in
bloomington.
H
B
Thank
you,
council
member
matthew,
and
I
guess
I'm
gonna
ask
city
manager
gleason,
maybe
to
tell
us
about
next
steps
in
regards
to
the
plan.
What.
E
Thank
you
mayor.
What
we
would
like
to
do
is
to
bring
this
back
for
council
approval
at
next
monday's
council
meeting.
B
Okay,
thank
you
very
much
so
next
item
on
the
agenda,
then,
is
a
presentation.
Discussion
of
the
solid
waste
program
has
requested
by
the
public
works
department
and
the
administration
department,
once
again,
city
manager,
gleason
for
some
opening
comments,
and
I
think
director
kevin
kofi
will
do
the
presentation.
E
Thank
you,
mayor
and
council,
and
for
the
bloomington
community.
This
conversation
has
gone
on
for
about
four
or
five
months.
This
is
actually
presentation
number
five.
E
This
is
where
we're
going
to
present
some
staff
recommendations
to
try
to
address
the
in
excess
of
a
1
million
dollar
deficit
for
all
things
related
solid
waste.
We
took
four
sessions
previous
to
this
to
discuss
what
the
problems
were.
This
is
something
that
was
adopted
by
council.
E
Many
of
the
council
members
today
were
not
a
part
of
this
staff
weren't
either,
but
this
was
adopted
early
in
2018
with
any
plan
such
as
that
the
magnitude
of
a
plan
like
that
you
like
to
take
some
time
to
assess
to
see
if
it's
actually
doing
what
was
promised
to
the
community.
What
the
intention
was.
E
We
found
this
time
last
year
that
we
knew
beforehand,
but
we
were
ready
this
time
last
year
to
make
very
similar
presentations
to
the
council
in
the
community,
but
for
covid
that
was
put
on
pause,
and
here
we
are
today.
E
Council
has
several
options
to
consider,
but
these
are
just
the
staff
recommendations
to
try
to
address.
We
know
also
that
the
community
has
come
to
expect
a
level
of
service.
E
To
be
quite
honest,
that
is
unseen
in
most
municipalities
and
that's
not
saying
that
we
shouldn't
do
it.
It's
just
saying
that
there's
a
cost
for
this
and
tonight's
presentation
is
one
where
kevin
will
make
the
staff
recommendations
briefly
walk
through
some
of
the
ground
that
we've
covered
previously
and
then,
ultimately,
we
look
to
counsel
for
the
next
steps.
Thank
you.
Kevin.
I
I
So,
as
was
was
mentioned,
this
is
the
fifth
presentation
we've
been
building
up
to
this
point
and
we've
got
some
recommendations
to
share
with
you,
including
you
know,
with
the
multi-family
properties
we
had
talked
about
previously.
I
I
We
think
that
by
increasing
the
bucket
charge
to
more
of
a
cost
recovery
of
fifty
dollars
per
bucket,
that
that
will
help
to
alleviate
reduce
that
bulk
at
the
curb,
because
they'll
be
more
costly
than
just
getting
a
dumpster
and
taking
care
of
it
that
way,
and
then,
as
far
as
the
low
income
fee,
because
there's
very
few
users
of
that
system,
the
the
cost
savings
there's
not
not
a
lot
there
and
we
have
currently
about
21
accounts
that
participate
in
that
low
income
fee.
I
So
we
don't
recommend
making
changes
to
it
because
it
does
serve
a
need.
Just
a
quick
update
on
the
air
burner,
as
was
approved
back
in
april,
we
have
purchased
the
unit
it's
going
to
be
delivered.
Hopefully,
in
august,
we've
also
made
application
for
the
epa
permit,
which
we
hope
to
have
by
then
as
well,
and
you
know
moving
this
direction.
We
look
to
save
a
significant
amount
of
money
on
our
disposal
of
brush
annually
with
the
citizens
convenience
center.
I
We
have
implemented
some
things
that
we
can
within
the
limits
of
code,
but
there
is
some
things
that
we
need
to
codify
in
order
to
be
able
to
enforce-
and
you
know,
one
of
the
things
that
we
would
suggest
is
allow
two
free
vehicles
up
to
one
bucket
per
vehicle
per
month
for
bulk
drop
off.
This
would
not
be
for
brush,
but
this
would
be
for
bulk
and
we've
implemented,
where
we
ask
homeowners
to
show
where
they've
got
a
permit
to
drop
off.
I
Remodeling
debris
we're
still
working
through
some
issues
with
that
in
coordination
with
our
you
know,
economic
community
development
department,
because
in
in
some
cases
certain
types
of
remodeling
may
or
may
not
require
a
permit.
But
you
know
we.
We
just
want
to
make
sure
that
you
know
we're
not
accepting
waste
from
a
contractor
project
where,
if
a
homeowner
has
a
contractor,
do
the
work
they're
supposed
to
provide
for
the
disposal
of
it
and
then
the
idea
of
you
know
more
than
two.
I
You
know
trips
per
month
or
two
buckets
per
month
that
we
would
allow
it
to
charge.
You
know
the
the
fifty
dollar
per
bucket
fee
as
kind
of
cost
recovery
on
that
to
limit.
What's
coming
to
us,
curbside
bulk
pickup.
We
currently
have
the
spring
and
fall
free
pickup,
which
has
been
very
popular,
but
it's
also
very
costly
in
the
sense
that
we
rent
extra
equipment.
I
We
bring
crews
over
from
streets
and
sewers
to
help
supplement
in
order
to
get
that
done
in
the
two-week
time
period,
and
so
we
can
save
significant
money
if
we
were
to
eliminate
that.
I
In
addition,
looking
at
implementing
you
know
monthly,
as
opposed
to
every
two
weeks
for
bulk
and
brush
use
different
collection
areas,
and
this
could
help
us
then
to
stay
on
schedule
better.
There
are
certain
times
the
year
when
brush
or
bulk
gets
very,
very
heavy
and
we
sometimes
fall
behind,
and
this
would
help
us
to
stay
on
track
better
and
then
also
that
50
per
bucket
charge
for
curbside
bulk
pickup.
Currently
it's
25,
but
that
really
doesn't
provide
the
the
cost
recovery.
I
You
know
that
that
the
25
is
just
way
too
short
and
then
disallow
extreme
demolitions.
What
we
mean
by
that
is
that
there
have
been
cases
where
people
just
put
piles
of
stuff
on
the
curb
that
really
they
should
have
gotten
a
dumpster
for
and
disposed
of
it.
That
way-
and
then
I
you
know
brush
and
limbs,
really
need
to
be
cut
up
into
manageable
sizes
and
piles
that
we're
not
trying
to
pick
up
stuff.
I
That's
20-foot
long
limbs
that
somebody
should
have
cut
in
half
or
or
thirds
in
order
for
it
to
be
picked
up
more
effectively
and
hauled
off
in
the
truck
and
then
curbside
leaf
collection.
We've
talked
about
this.
I
Some
would
be
proposing
to
go
with
bags,
and
that
would
help
with
a
number
of
things
with
you
know
the
leaves
blowing
around
the
neighborhood
getting
into
inlets
and,
and
you
know,
clogging
inlets
and
flooding
issues
and
other
things
and-
and
so
also
you
know,
just
just
encouraging.
People
were
possible
too,
to
compost
and
mulch
with
leaves,
because
every
every
you
know
leaf.
I
We
don't
have
to
haul
away,
saves
everybody
some
money
and
is
more
economic,
ecologically
friendly,
because
in
the
end
we
we
take
the
leaves
out
to
farm
fields,
and
they
you
know,
cultivate
them
in
anyway
to
recycle
them.
But
if
people
can
recycle
them
at
their
house
even
better,
and
what
does
that
look
like
in
terms
of
the
you
know,
cost
for
you
know
citizens
to
bag
them
and
that
type
of
thing,
so
we
looked
at
what
our
total
yardage
is
that
we
dispose
of
annually.
I
You
know
to
pay
the
the
farmer
to
take
our
leaves
and
then
factored
in.
What
would
that
be
uncompressed?
Because
you
know
remember
that
what
we
take
to
the
to
the
farmer
through
the
packers
and
stuff
is
compressed,
and
we
we
back
calculate
that
you
know
given
an
estimated
23,
000
plus
customers.
I
It
would
end
up
being
roughly
eight
bags
per
customer
on
average.
Obviously
there's
some
that
are
going
to
be
much
more
than
that
and
at
50
cents
a
bag
we're
looking
at
an
average
of
four
dollars.
A
customer
is
what
we
calculate
for
that.
I
And
then
we've
done,
you
know
some
audits
internally
to
make
sure
that
we're
charging.
You
know
the
right
customers,
the
right
right
amount
for
the
right
size,
cart,
whether
it's
35,
65
or
95
and
so
forth,
and
we
ought
to
continue
to
do
that
because
there
can
be
disconnects
between
what
we
pick
up
in
the
field
versus
what
is
being
built
in
munis.
I
And
so
we
we
want
to
make
sure
that's
appropriate
and
then
looking
at
some
of
the
other
things
that
the
solid
waste
area
does
like
alley,
maintenance
or
median
cleanup
and
helping
with
snow
and
ice
vehicles,
and
sometimes
clean
up
an
abatement
from
administrative
court
findings
to
to
allocate
those
from
the
general
fund,
as
opposed
to
supporting
it
with
the
enterprise
fund
with
the
user
fees
and
then
overall.
I
What
does
that
look
like
well
in
in
you
know
each
of
these
areas
from
bulk
waste
to
brush
to
the
fall
leaf
collection
to
these
other
items.
If
we
implement
those,
we
look
that
we
can.
I
You
know,
help
our
annual
budget
to
the
tune
of
potentially
200
000
to
the
positive
and
we're
we're
looking
at
these
numbers.
As
trying
to
be
conservative
so
that
we
can
meet
those
goals
and
and
have
an
enterprise
fund
that
is
self-sufficient
and
able
to
stay
in
the
black,
and
so
I
know,
I
covered
a
lot
of
material
rather
quickly,
but
this,
like
I
say,
is
built
on
the
other
four
presentations
that
have
been
done
and
we'll
look
forward
to
your
discussion
and
and
feedback
here.
E
Real
quick
kevin
before
we
go
to
questions
the
conservative
projections
in
the
previous
slide.
It
showed
about
a
250
to
300,
000,
dollar
surplus
and
the
scheme
of
the
entire
solid
waste
budget.
This
is
about
a
three
or
four
percent
projection.
E
It's
one
that
we
felt
was
prudent
instead
of
projecting
flat
or
not
giving
us
a
little
bit
of
cushion
as
those
numbers
possibly
increase.
If
the
projections
are
accurate,
we
don't
see
anything
unforeseen
like
a
an
ice
storm.
E
B
Okay,
thank
you
very
much.
It
looks
like
we
do
have
questions
so
we're
going
to
start
with
council
member
matthew.
O
Thanks
mayor,
thank
you
kevin.
I
have
a
couple
questions.
First,
something
I
brought
up
before
was
a
regarding
apartment
cleanouts.
I
know
that
that's
an
ongoing
issue.
O
I've
driven
through
several
of
them
that
were
kind
of
in
the
ward
4
area
just
to
the
east
of
downtown
recently,
and
one
of
the
things
that
came
out
of
that
is
that
that
the
apartment
management
companies
might
not
care
if
we
charge
a
per
bucket
fee
for
the
apartment
cleanouts,
because
the
water
bill
and
therefore
the
garbage
bill
might
still
be
in
the
name
of
the
resident.
O
That
was
the
tenant
that
was
just
there,
and
so
when
they
do
the
apartment
clean-outs
and
we
bill
somebody
if
it
gets
billed
to
the
resident
who
no
longer
lives
at
that
residence
and
moved
out.
You
know
when
it
should
be
built
to
the
apartment
company.
I
mean.
How
do
we
reconcile
that
to
make
sure
the
appropriate
group
or
person
or
envy
is
actually
getting
the
bill?
Because
I
don't
want
to
see
somebody
who
moved
out
of
a
place
to
find
a
better
home,
get
stuck
with
the
build
when
they
had
no
control
over.
O
I
Yeah
traditionally
the
apartment
management
or
the
owner
is
ultimately
responsible
for
the
bill.
They
do
follow
the
tenant.
What
when
they
can,
but
ultimately,
if
the
tenant
is
gone
and
doesn't
pay
the
bill,
it
goes
back
to
the
property
owner.
O
Okay.
So
the
next
question
I
had
was
around
leaf
collection
and
we've
talked
about
bagging,
the
leaves
and,
of
course,
ward
1,
ward,
4,
ward,
6,
ward,
7
kind
of
a
lot
of
the
older
parts
of
town
have
massive
trees.
You
know
your
your
projections,
you
were
saying
you
were
thinking
like
four
bags
in
order
to
for
per
residence,
and
I
was
thinking
in
my
head.
I'm
like
I
don't
think
that
there's
any
way
possible.
O
I
could
get
all
the
leaves
that
are
in
my
yard,
each
year
into
down
into
just
four
bags.
So
I
guess
that
seems
like
that.
Projection
might
not
be
feasible,
maybe
that's
an
average
across
the
whole
city.
If
you
look
at
some
areas
that
have
smaller
trees
that
aren't
as
developed
yet,
but
I
I
kind
of
question
that
particular
number
and
but
my
follow-up
question.
That
is
right.
Now
we
we
send
out
teams
and
we've
got
a
truck
driver.
O
We've
got
a
guy
who
goes
ahead
of
them
and
he's
raking
the
leaves
and
pulling
them
out
in
the
street.
So
that
the
third
guy
who's
running
the
the
vacuum
sucks
the
leaves
up.
What?
Where
does
that
staff
go?
What
happens
that
staff
do?
Are
we
saving
staff
time
are
we
are
there?
Are
we
going
to
reduce
staff
and
by
making
this
change?
Is
that
part
of
the
savings
or
what
happens
there.
I
Yeah
good
questions,
alderman
matthew,
the
the
bags
we
calculated
was
eight
eight
bags
at
50
cents
would
be
four
dollars
for
the
bags.
Okay,
the
the
staff.
When
we
do
the
leaf
backs,
we
hire
additional
seasonal
laborers
that
are
doing
the
raking
and
so
forth.
So
we
we
have,
you
know
ramp
up
with
our
seasonal
staff
for
the
leaf
collection
because
it
takes
quite
a
few
people
added
people
to
do
that.
O
Okay,
so
we
just
won't
need
to
hire
those
people.
I
mean
I'm
assuming
somebody's
still.
Gonna
have
to
be
in
a
truck
to
get
out
and
grab
the
leave,
the
sacks
off
the
street
and
sling
them
into
the
back
of
a
vehicle
right.
So
we're
still
gonna
have
to
have
somebody
there,
but
maybe
it's
just
not
as
time
intensive.
I
Right
and-
and
you
know,
we're
looking
to
use
the
loaders
with
the
rear
packers
for
the
bag
collection.
So
you
know
the
loaders
can
pick
that
up
and
and
drop
it
in
the
back
of
the
packers
really
pretty
quickly.
O
Okay,
I
think
that's
all
the
questions
I
have
right
now.
I
do
appreciate
the
you
know.
Something
I
advocated
for
in
2018
was
actual
cost
recovery
for
the
pickups
on
the
curbs,
and
I
appreciate
seeing
that-
and
I
do
like
the
concession
of
the
citizens
convenience
center
having
two
free
drop-offs
per
resident
each
month.
So
thank
you
for
that.
P
So
this
seems
to
not
be
an
issue
created
in
2018,
but
one
that
has
persisted
for
quite
some
time.
I
also
read
the
notes
in
2018
and
there
was
a
pretty
spirited
discussion.
P
It
sounded
like
in
february
of
2018,
which
was
then
referenced
in
the
march
20
2018
meeting
minutes
where
at
that
time,
to
address
these
issues
and
to
address
the
persistent
deficit,
there
was
a
reluctant
agreed
upon
five
to
three,
I
think,
or
maybe
even
closer
than
that
vote,
to
allow
a
three
percent
year-over-year
inflation
rate
in
this
area,
and
it
was
at
least
believed
according
to
the
notes
that
I
read
that
providing
that
inflation
of
three
percent
year-over-year
that
this
issue
would
be
put
to
rest.
P
P
P
It
is
very,
you
know,
regressive
in
that
place,
and
it's
not
just
the
issue
of
the
cost
associated
with
bags,
but
it's
also
a
labor
transfer
from
the
city's
use
of
the
vacuum
as
a
technology
solution
to
the
actual
resident,
who
would
be
required
to
not
only
buy
the
bags
but
to
bag,
the
leaves
which
would
transfer
to
more
time
upon
them.
P
So
it
would
be
easier
upon
us
to
do
these
things,
but
not
easier
upon
the
people
that
we
were
elected
to
serve
the
other
thing
about
this.
This
bulk
waste
disposal
and
the
two
times
a
year
that
we
had
committed
to
picking
up
in
2018.
There
were
decent
amount
of
conversations.
It
looked
like
around
that
as
well,
whereas
there
was
a
belief
that
people
would
be
accumulating
items
on
their
property
and
that
again
would
contribute
to
other
challenges
that
the
city
might
face.
P
But
in
the
formulation
of
the
recommendations
that
we
have
today,
what
I
haven't
seen
is
the
constituent
view.
I
found
a
survey
in
2013
should
the
city
provide
the
service
relative
to
solid
waste.
Talking
about
these
very
items,
and
the
vast
majority
of
our
population
believed
that
we
should
be
providing
these
items,
including
the
persistent
curbside
yard,
waste
collection,
as
well
as
the
long
large
item
collection.
B
Okay,
thank
you
very
much
council
member
money.
Next
is
council,
member
ward.
N
Yeah,
I
think,
I'm
I
would
probably
pick
up
on
a
couple
of
those
themes,
because
I
have
some
questions
about
how
to
tend
to
the
needs
of
people
who
are
either
disabled
and
not
able
to
do
their
leaf
raking
themselves,
for
example,
or
or
cutting
tree
branches.
People
who
have
you
know,
don't
have
those
tools,
don't
have
the
income
to
purchase
the
tools
and
I'm
just
wondering
what
kind
of
options
there
are
for
them,
because
in
my
you
know
in
in
ward
7.
That
is
a
an
issue.
N
You
know
we
do
have
a
lot
of
trees
and
we,
you
know
it's
it's
a
lower
income,
part
of
town,
and
I
think
that
what
may
or
may
not
be
an
issue
in
in
a
neighborhood
that
that
you
know
has
higher
income
or
fewer
trees.
It
is
an
issue
in
our
our
part
of
town,
and
it
feels
like,
like
a
way
of
it,
feels
like
a
burden
on
on
our.
N
You
know
on
residents
of
those
parts
of
town,
and
so
I
guess
I'm
curious
to
know
where
the
with
the
low
income
discounts,
if
any
of
that
would
apply
there,
and
if
that
could
be,
you
know
something
that
that
could
address
that.
I
also
have
significant
issues
with
the
amount
of
of
garbage
that's
placed
on
the
street
when
apartments
are
cleaned
out.
N
That's
an
ongoing
issue
in
neighborhoods
in
ward
7.,
and
I'm
curious
whether
the
the
plan
addresses
how
long
those
kinds
of
things
can
sit
on
the
sidewalk
before
their
before
the
build
comes
due.
N
In
my
opinion,
I'm
not
sure
if,
if
the
two
weeks
is
still
the
the
the
plan,
in
my
opinion,
two
days
is
too
long
for
that
kind
of
thing
and
when
you
know
our
kids
are
having
to
wade
out
into
the
street
on
their
way
to
school
in
order
to
avoid
having
to
walk
through
broken
glass
and
garbage,
that's
the
two
days
is
even
too
long.
N
I'm
kind
of
wondering
if
there
are
any
options
for
their.
You
know
to
be
penalties
for
repeat
offenders
when
it
comes
to
to
you
know,
cleaning
out
an
apartment.
Frankly,
I
think
a
landlord
ought
to
know
no
better,
the
first
time,
but
second
time
it
there
shouldn't
be
any
excuses
there
and
and
to
me
that's
a
should
be
a
code
violation
that
gets
addressed
in
a
in
a
penalty
kind
of
way,
not
just
okay.
Well,
you
know
we'll
we'll
send
them
a
bill
for
it.
N
So
those
are
a
couple
of
the
issues
that
I
have
and
I
I
wonder
if,
if
we
could
address
the
question
of
the
low
income
discounts,
you
know
who
that
what
that
might
apply
to
and
give
any
more
details
about
the
apartment,
clean
outs.
I
Yeah
the
code
does
provide
for
how
long
you
can
have
your
trash
or
recycle,
put
out
ahead
of
pickup
and
how
quickly
you
have
to
pull
it
back
in.
But
that
also
applies
to
the
bulk
and
brush
pick
out
on
the
curb
as
well,
and
that
would
be
part
of
what
we
need
to
do.
More
enforcement
to
find
those
people
that
are
not
putting
out
at
the
right
time.
N
I
guess
I'm
I'm
still
looking
for
a
bit
of
clarity
on
on
how
long
you
know
a
pile
of
garbage
can
bulk
garbage
can
sit
on
the
sidewalk
if
a
landlord
clears
out
an
apartment
before
that
landlord
gets
sent
a
bill?
Is
it
still
two
weeks
under
this
plan,
and
is
there
any
kind
of
penalty
for
that
beyond
just
what
the
fifty
dollars
per
bucket.
I
Yeah,
the
the
fifty
dollars
is
really
not
a
penalty.
It's
more
of
a
cost
recovery
to
collect
the
refuse.
There
is
in
the
code,
like
I
say,
penalties
that
could
be
enforced
for
having
it
out.
You
know
too
far
in
advance
of
pickup
or
so
yes,
there
are
ways
to
enforce
that.
Even
currently,
we,
we
don't
necessarily
spend
a
lot
of
time
trying
to
enforce
it
at
this
point,
but
we
need
to
do
more
of
that,
especially,
like
you
said,
for
repeat
offenders.
I
I
think
you
know
we
we
want
to
get
better
at
that.
N
Sorry,
and
does
the
low
low
income
discount
apply
to
some
of
the
issues
that
we've
been
talking
about
in
terms
of
of
you
know,
helping
people
get
rid
of
of
bulk
brush
and
so
forth
if
they
can't
or
or
bulk
trash,
if
they,
if
they're,
not
able
to
pay
that.
I
Yeah,
I
need
to
to
check
on
that
aspect
of
it.
We
only
have
like
21
accounts
right
now
that
qualify
for
the
low
income.
I
don't
remember
if
our
code
has
allowances
in
there
for
the
bulk
pickup,
but
you
know
it's
certainly
something
we
could
look
to
include
in
in
what
we
bring
to
you
as
a
recommendation
for
the
code
changes
because
it
it's
not.
C
I
C
So
you
know
if
we
look
at
you
know
this.
You
know
it
applies
to
people
living
in
poverty
at
or
below
the
poverty
rate,
and
if
we
look
at
the
poverty
weight
for
rate
for
bloomington,
the
number
of
households
there's
probably
at
least
thousands
of
households
that
would
apply
so
any
ideas
on
how
we
can
get
the
word
out
on
this
discount
program.
I
Yeah-
and
you
know
when
we
did
some
of
the
earlier-
you
know
presentations
for
you
back
in
the
spring.
We
did
have
coverage
from
the
pantograph
and
and
from
you
know,
our
local
television
stations,
and
so
that
was
one
of
the
things
that
was
brought
out.
I
know
for
sure
by
a
wyzw
mbd
I
talked
to
reporter
and
they
highlighted
that
program,
and
I
think
we
did
have
some
inquiries
after
that.
So
you
know
it
is
on
our
website.
I
The
information
and
we've
also,
like
I
say,
have
spoken
with
the
press
recently
about
it.
B
Okay,
next,
which
looks
like
last
but
not
least,
councilmember
bowling.
F
Oh
thank
you
mayor.
Well,
I
I
have
a
couple
questions
and
to
address
alderman
ward's
concern
about
the
bulk
and
sitting
out.
Would
it
be
possible
to
require
the
landlord,
the
owner
of
the
property
to
when
they're
unloading
all
that
stuff
from
within
the
empty
apartments
to
get
a
whatever
you
know
to
get
their
own
trash
bin
that
huge
truck
thing
and
load
it
up
themselves
instead
of
emptying
out
the
apartment
and
throwing
it
on
the
curb
or
is
it
the
renter
that
does
that.
F
F
I.
I
agree
that
having
all
that
trash
set
out
for
a
week
is
just
horrible,
but
again
that's
the
expectation,
and
you
know
we
have
to
kind
of
have
to
kind
of
deal
with
it.
I'm
curious
about
the
brush
burner
and
so
curious
that
I
would
like
you
to
invite
me
out
for
the
inaugural
use,
because
it's
right
around
in
my
neighborhood
and
you
have
you-
had
some
numbers
in
the
report
about
the
cost
of
operating
there's
going
to
be
an
additional
cost
for
operating.
I
Yeah,
it's
not
personnel,
because
you
know
we're
planning
to
use
our
own
staff
to
run
that
air
burner.
The
the
operating
cost
is
the
diesel
fuel
and
some
conceal
consumables
with
that
air
burner,
because
the
air
curtain
itself
is
run
by
a
a
large
blower.
That's
a
diesel
powered
so
there's
some
costs
involved
with
the
diesel
fuel
and
some
some
other
parts
to
the
air
burner.
F
Okay,
is
there
a
maintenance
agreement
or
warranty
on
the
unit.
F
Okay,
that's
good
enough,
let's
see
and
on
the
leaf
collection.
In
in
your
report,
it
said
you
were
going
to
notify
with
the
mail
bill
the
bills
that
are
mailed
out
and
door
hangers
and
all
that.
Well,
I
do
my
bill
pay
online
and
I
never
get
notifications
unless
I
go
on
the
website
to
see
what's
going
on
and
there
will
be
an
additional
labor
cost
to
have
people
walk
around
the
neighborhoods
and
put
door
hangers.
I
Yeah,
that's
that's
a
good
question
and,
and
that's
something
we
can
work
with.
You
know
our
it
folks
with
the
utility
billing
and
everything
too,
to
see
what
are
those
ways
to
get
out
electronic
notifications
and
that
type
of
thing.
I
You
said,
if
you're
paying
online
and
get
electronic
bills,
then
you're
not
necessarily
getting
the
the
paper
inserts
with
the
paper
bills
anymore.
B
P
I
feel
like
we're
talking
as
if
the
decision
has
been
made.
I
know
the
five
presentations
all
reiterated,
really
what
appear
to
be
the
same
recommendations,
but
there's
been
a
lot
of
feedback
and
a
lot
of
dialogue
since
then,
that
should
be
considered
and
even
more
dialogue
tonight,
as
people
have
made
points
about
expanding
the
the
low-income
subsidies
and
things
of
that
nature
that
need
to
be
built
back
into
the
analysis
for
the
financial
return.
In
this
regard,
the
other
question
that
I
have
is
specific
about
the
labor
cost
reduction.
P
None
of
the
internal
staff
will
will
be
reduced
in
this
case.
It's
my
understanding
from
our
discussion.
Previously,
they
would
just
be
shifted
to
other
work
so
on
an
accounting
basis.
It
changes
the
perception
related
to
this
internal
subsidy,
but
on
an
actual
basis,
I'm
not
clear
on
what
the
actual
net
recovery
would
be.
Save
a
few
seasonal
of
employees,
which
I
I
don't
believe
make
up
the
bulk
of
this
opportunity.
I
Right
so
some
some
of
the
employees
like
for
the
spring
and
fall
bulk
pickup.
Those
staff
come
from
our
streets
and
sewers
division
for
those
two
weeks,
and
so
those
people
are
no
longer
able
to
get
done.
I
The
tasks
that
they
should
be
working
on,
whether
it's
repairing
inlets
or
road
or
you
know
other
types
of
repairs,
and
so
by
keeping
those
staff
where
they
should
be,
then
we'll
actually
be
able
to
keep
up
a
little
bit
better
on
on
road
and
storm
sewers
and
sewers
and
other
maintenance
that
we
need
to
be
doing,
and
so
there's
there's
a
benefit
there
by
not
having
to
pull
them
in.
For
that
spring
and
fall
pickup.
I
Your
right
overall
doesn't
necessarily
change
who
we
have
staff
wise
labor-wise,
our
overall
costs
as
a
city,
but
it,
but
it
does
allow
us
to
get
those
people
continue
to
work
on
the
things
that
they
really
should
be
working
on.
P
E
B
Q
Yeah,
thank
you.
So
a
lot
of
my
questions
have
been
answered,
but
I
am
interested
in
hearing
more
about
this
regional
plan
that
you
mentioned,
which
suggests
to
me
that
there's
going
to
be
some
parsing
of
the
community
in
a
different
way
based
on
potentially
what's
needed,
and-
and
so
I
I'm
just
that-
you
don't
have
to
tell
me
tonight
or
us
tonight,
but
in
the
future
I'd
be
really
interested
in
and
what
the
regions
are
and
how
that
that
is
being
determined.
Q
And
I'm
also.
What
I
can
continue
to
hear
consistently
is
that
if
we
do
maintain
the
level
of
service
that
we
currently
provide
it's
more
expensive
and
it
has
to
be
accounted
for
in
some
way.
Q
B
And
yes,
this
was
truly
the
last
word.
Thank
you
councilman.
So
I
I
think
my
my
sense,
you
know
just
hearing
from
from
everyone.
It
looks
like
we
have
some
folks
who
might
want
some
options.
B
You
know
who
are
not
quite
ready
to
to
go
with
what's
presented
tonight,
so
I
don't
know
so
we
I
think
we'll
have
to
you
know.
Maybe
staff
will
will
take
some
time
to
to
think
about
some
of
the
issues
and
questions
that
were
raised
and
and
reach
out
to
the
individual
council
members
and
and
try
to
address
them
and
eventually,
at
some
point,
maybe
bring
forward
some
options.
I
don't
know.
Does
that
sound
like
an
accurate
view
of
what
what
happened
tonight?
B
B
Okay,
all
right
sounds
good.
Well,
thank
you
very
much
senior
manager,
gleason
and
director
kevin
cohen.
I
know
this
has
been
quite
a
quite
a
bit
of
time
that
you
spent
on
this
presentation,
but
you
know
we'll
figure
it
out
and
make
the
best
decision
possible
for
our
residents
in
the
community
eventually.
B
I
think
the
next
item
on
on
the
agenda
is
our
city,
manager's,
discussion.
E
E
We've
had
some
pretty
good
weather
so
far,
and
I
probably
shouldn't
have
said
that,
but
we
have
had
good
weather
good
turnout.
I
think
people
are
just
excited
about
getting
out
and
interacting,
and
this
is
a
great
venue
in
our
downtown
next
slide.
E
I
get
your
fix
on
route
66.
This
is
the
july
first
friday
before
the
fourth
of
july
weekend.
This
is
friday
july,
2nd
5
p.m,
to
8
p.m.
Next
slide:
animal
crackers,
education
classes.
We
talked
about
this
one
last
time
as
well,
still
still
time
to
sign
up,
and
this
runs
july.
6Th,
7th
and
8th
next
slide
free
lunchtime,
concerts
downtown
and
then
the
free
community
concert
band
series
in
franklin
park.
E
The
dates
can
be
found
right
there
or
on
our
website,
and
I
think
I
might
have
one
more
here
we
go.
Michael
white
is
a
new
hire
superintendent
of
solid
waste.
E
You
know
look
what
we
were
just
talking
about
he's
hired
just
in
time
to
be
a
part
of
the
solution
here
and
then
we've
got
john
branham
that
comes
to
us
with
20
years
of
municipal
experience
from
the
chicago
suburbs.
He
has
ties
here
in
the
community
and
was
hired
to
fill
a
position
for
melissa,
hahn's
department
and
then
also
not
in
this
slide
but
day.
E
One
was
today
for
catherine
murphy,
the
communications
manager,
and
there
is
so
much
of
what
we
were
talking
about
tonight,
whether
it's
an
internal
communication
strategy
or
an
external
communication
strategy
that
very
excited
getting
her
up
and
running,
and
it's
not
going
to
take
much
given
her
experience.
So
her
first
day
was
today
and
then
lastly,
from
me,
mayor
and
council,
next
week's
council
meeting
will
be
the
last
one
that
we'll
be
having
virtually
where
leslie
yoakam
the
city
clerk
and
I
are
sitting
at
109
east
olive
street.
E
The
council
meetings
are
going
to
move
to
the
government
center
we're
going
to
share
that
space
with
mclean
county.
This
has
been
a
work
in
progress
for
quite
some
time,
so
we're
going
to
resume
in
person
at
the
new
location,
and
I
believe
that
first
council
meeting
is
monday
july.
12Th
we've
had
a
couple
of
commission
meetings,
so
far,
sort
of
trial
runs
and
a
fair
amount
of
again
back
to
craig
a
fair
amount
of
I.t
involved
in
getting
this
ready
for
us,
and
that's
all
I've
got
mayor.
Thank
you.
B
Okay,
thank
you
very
much
to
you,
manager,
gleason
and
thank
you
everyone
for
a
wonderful
evening,
great
discussion
and
definitely
appreciate
your
involvement
and
feedback
on
all
the
presentations.
And
at
this
point
I
will
entertain
a
motion
to
adjourn
okay.
It
looks
like
council
member
bowling
is
ready
and
second
by
a
councilmember
ward,
all
those
in
favor
signify
by
saying
aye.
