Description
No description was provided for this meeting.
If this is YOUR meeting, an easy way to fix this is to add a description to your video, wherever mtngs.io found it (probably YouTube).
B
B
Oh
okay,
yeah.
I
thought
something:
weird
happened:
okay,
I'm
gonna,
go
ahead
and
call
the
meeting
of
the
bloomington
the
city
of
bloomington
township.
To
order
this,
we
have
a
pledge
of
allegiance
to
the
flag.
D
B
A
I
actually
have
to
do
everything
by
roll
call
right
now
with
us
with
us
doing
our
digital
meetings.
Sorry
about
that
all
right
I'll
make
it
quick
trustee
bowlin!
Yes,
trustee
milomboy!
Yes,
trustee
emig!
Yes,
trustee
painter!
Yes,
trustee
creo!
B
Okay,
so
next
item
of
the
jet
on
the
agenda
is
a
second
amendment
to
settlement
agreement
between
state
farm,
mutual
automobile
company,
the
city
of
bloomington,
township
and
other
taxing
bodies
in
mclean
county
regarding
assessed
value
of
parcel
owned
by
state
farm
for
tax
years.
2020
2024
and
the
recommendation
is
that
the
agreement
be
approved
and
the
township
supervisor
and
township
clerk
be
authorized
to
execute
the
necessary
documents.
B
Should
we
do?
We
have
any
comments
by
the
township
supervisor.
A
She
is
here,
but
I
don't.
F
Yeah,
okay,
an
steve.
I
was
trying
to
merge
steve
on
the
call
because
he's
not
getting
it
properly.
I
don't
have
any
comment.
This
is
very
similar
to
the
one
that
happened
several
years
five
years
ago.
The
settlement
really
the
big
players
city
of
bloomington
and
some
of
the
other
ones,
are
the
ones
who
make
most
of
the
decision
making
especially
district
87,
and
so
it
doesn't
affect
township
as
much
so
we
usually
go
with
whatever
they're
deciding.
B
Okay,
okay,
awesome:
should
we
go
ahead
with
the
motion,
then
I'll.
C
G
Go
ahead,
I
I
just
like
to
make
mention
I'd
like
to
recuse
myself
from
this
matter,
as
this
involves
my
employer.
B
F
I
don't
has
everybody
read
our
our
my
supervisor's
report,
there's
a
lot
in
it.
I
just
want
to
make
note
that
everybody
understand
that
next
month,
we'll
be
talking
about
the
supervisor
and
assessor
compensation
for
new.
You
know
the
newly
elected
election
cycle
and
if
you
have
any
questions
about
that,
we
can
discuss
it.
If
you
send
me
an
email
or
you
know,
or
we
can
meet
and
talk
about
it,
we'll
go
over
some
of
those
details.
Next
next
board
meeting.
B
F
We
did
have
an
emergency
two
air
conditioner
units
had
different
repairs
that
were
necessary.
I
wanted
to
make
note
that
we
are
going
to
have
to
do
some
upgrades
on
our
building
it's
17
years
old,
and
these
types
of
things
are
going
to
have
to
be
looked
at
and
budgeted
for
for
the
next
season.
I
H
H
H
My
my
first
question
has
to
do
with
the
you
know:
the
transfer
of
the
money
from
the
general
township
fund
to
the
cerp
fund,
which
is
the
emergency
covet
fund
and
the
200
000
to
the
general
assistance
fund
and
and.
I
H
I
understand
that
those
monies
have
not
been
transferred
or
set
yet
and
if
you
could
go
ahead
and
explain
that
and
what
the
what
the
intent
in
the
future
that
would
be.
I
F
That
would
be
for
the
hundred
thousand
the
line
item.
Is
there
budgeted
for
that
hundred
thousand
and
same
with
a
move
for
ga
funds
if
it's
needed
will
be
transferred
to
the
ga
funds
with
board
approval?
F
The
the
for
the
serp
program,
which
is
the
hundred
thousand
all
it
needs,
is
a
line
item
transfer
because
we've
already
done
that
when
it
comes
time.
If
it
comes
time
that
we
need
to
move
200
into
the
ga
fund,
we
will
need
board
approval
for
that.
So
but
at
least
we're
prepared
to
do
that.
If
we
need
to
do
that,
but
until
that
happens,
we're
not
moving
it
just
so
that
we
can
collect
as
much
interest
as
we
can
on
that
account.
H
And,
and
from
what
I
understand
and
looking
at
the
numbers
and
the
packet
deb
between
2019
and
2020,
we're
actually
spending
less
in
general
assistance
than
2019.
If
you
could
explain
why
why
you
think
that
is.
F
I
believe
that
in
march
and
april,
yes,
thank
you
jeff
for
bringing
that
up
believe
in
march
and
april,
the
numbers
are
lower
a
little
bit
lower.
Definitely
because
I
I
mean
my
belief
is
that
you
know
the
low
income
that
we're
needing
assistance
in
the
past
are
receiving
the
ides,
which
is
the
employment
insurance
at
a
higher
rate,
and
they
would
be
disqualified
and
weren't
needing
any
assistance
at
that.
F
Time
may
have
a
little
bit
of
an
increase,
not
much
it's
pretty
similar
to
what
it
was
before,
not
lower
numbers,
but
a
little
bit
more
income,
so
that
has
not
changed
basically
in
june.
Yes,
the
numbers
are
lower.
The
only
thing
I
can
think
of
with
that
and
my
my
belief
would
be
that
there
are
no
evictions
and
that's
moratorium
is
still
in
existence
through
august
22nd
and
then
la
heap.
F
It
went
through
without
any
disconnects
through
the
end
of
june
july,
is
open
for
the
amaran
and
the
gas
to
be
able
to
see
what
they
can
collect,
but
then
that
goes
into
effect
again
why
he
does
in
the
beginning
of
august.
So
not
sure,
we'll
see
anything
until
all
this
stuff
is
done.
B
B
B
I
F
I
think
I
might
have
to
speak
for
steve
a
little
bit
and
just
go
through
his
report
because
he's
unable
to
get
on
the
microphone,
so
he
can
hear
the
call.
So
if
I'm
saying
anything
wrong
he'll,
let
me
know
that
tomorrow
the
the
assessor's
report
basically
says
that
there's
little
value
increase
for
2020.
We
have
minor
adjustments
to
assessments
to
some
properties
already,
so
they
hope
to
have
the
assessments
published
in
at
the
same
time
this
year,
early
september.
F
I
B
Awesome,
thank
you
very
much.
Madame
clerk
at
this
point,
I
ask
you:
if
you
have
any
public
comments.
B
C
B
A
Yeah,
so
actually
everyone,
but
trustee
renner
was
present
trustee
matthew
popped
on
at
5
54..
Okay,
thank
you.
J
J
J
H
I
I
I
J
Here,
thank
you
very
much.
We're
going
to
start
out
with
a
covet
19
update
and
I'm
guessing
we're
going
to
billy
tyus
billy.
Are
you
on
the
line.
J
K
Mayor
and
members
of
council,
first
of
all,
I
just
have
a
few
items
to
to
sort
of
run
through,
as
it
relates
to
an
update
on
covid
I'd
like
to
start
with
the
cdbg
program.
As
you
know,
you
approved
allowing
funding
for
both
residential
and
economic
development,
types
of
projects
or
types
of
assistance.
K
K
We've
we've
gotten
through
an
initial
review,
at
least
of
197
of
those
and
114
of
those
have
actually
been
referred
to.
Other
agencies
that
have
the
resources
to
serve
needs
as
part
of
our
coordinated
entry
process
and
what
that
means
for
the
public
is
that
cdbg
funding,
please
remember,
is
meant
to
be
a
a
source
of
funding
of
last
resort.
K
So
if
there
are
other
resources
available
in
the
in
the
in
the
community,
then
residents
are
referred
to
those
sources
again
not
sent
door
to
door,
but
more
as
part
of
our
entry
process
referred
to
those
sources
and
again
114
people
have
been
referred
to
other
agencies,
which
is
a
great
thing,
because
it
means
that
we
have
a
lot
of
resources
in
our
community.
So
far.
The
thing
to
remember
is
that
there
will
for
sure,
come
a
time
when
those
resources
are
extinguished
and
we
will
begin
writing
more
checks
directly
from
cdbg
funding.
K
But
again,
the
program
is
up
and
running
208
applications
to
date
and
we
are
processing
those
internally
in
terms
of
covet
positive
cases
as
you've
all
read
and
seen
case
numbers
continue
to
increase
both
locally
and
nationally
and
just
wanted
to.
Let
you
know
that
we
continue
to
model
those
those
as
closely
as
we
can
and
also
to
monitor,
what's
happening
at
the
state
level.
K
We
don't
know
if
there
will
come
a
day
when
the
current
phase
four
is,
is
amended
and
we're
in
a
different
phase
and
we're
looking
to
monitor
how
that
will
impact
us.
As
an
organization
and
also
as
a
community,
so
we
continue
to
monitor
that
as
best
we
can.
K
K
The
other
thing
that
we
wanted
to
do
and
needed
to
do
was
to
make
sure
that
some
of
the
compliance
related
issues
that
were
submitted
by
lifesteal
but
you're
familiar
with,
were
in
fact
compliance
issues,
and
that
is
by
no
means.
I
want
to
be
clear,
any
reflection
on
lifesteal.
It
is
not.
We
just
have
the
responsibility
to
make
sure
that
those
things
that
we
are
reviewing
and
and
talking
to
businesses
about
are
actually
compliance
issues.
K
So
we
have
started
the
process
of
reaching
out
to
businesses
and
we'll
keep
you
updated
as
that
process
continues
other
than
that.
That's
all
I
have
as
it
relates
to
coba
19..
Thank
you.
J
A
Sure
I
can
sorry
one.
Second,
we
have
ryan
how
house,
with
connect
transit
board,
the
deborah
presley
with
the
connect
transit
board.
Kelsey
harms
citizens,
beautification
committee,
nikki
williams,
zoning
board
of
appeals.
J
Thank
you
very
much
appreciate
that.
What
public
comment
do
we
have
that
was?
Do
we
have
anybody
waiting
to
speak
to
us?
We.
A
Do
we
actually
have
two
waiting
willie
halbert
and
john
walther.
L
I
wanted
to
speak
regarding
the
juneteenth
celebration.
As
we
know,
juneteent
is
one
of
the
oldest
known
celebration
commemorating
the
ending
of
slavery
in
the
united
states
dating
back
to
1865.
L
It
was
on
june
19th
that
the
union
soldiers
led
by
a
major
general
gordon
stranger,
landed
at
gavinston
texas,
with
news
that
the
war
had
ended
and
that
the
enslaved
were
now
free
note.
This
was
two
and
a
half
years
after
president
lincoln's
emancipation
proclamation,
which
had
become
official
january.
The
first
1863.
L
If
you
all
recall
back
in
for
2019
celebration
last
year,
I
actually
came
to
the
june
city
council
meeting
and
you
presented
us
with
the
proclamation
for
the
bloomington
normal
black
history
project.
It
was,
then,
I
submitted
packages
to
everyone
acknowledging
our
request
for
assistance
from
the
city
to
help
with
the
funding
for
this
project.
L
L
She
actually
came
and
pieced
from
gavinson
texas
and
brought
it
to
the
bloomington
normal
black
history
project.
We
just
wanted
to
share
that.
We
are
in
total
alliance
with
having
a
juneteenth
as
a
nation
as
a
city
holiday,
and
we
hope
that
we
can
be
a
part
hope
you
can
have
this
in
existence
within
our
community,
that
the
city
will
work
with
us
and
that
we
may
continue
this
tradition
throughout
for
time
to
come.
L
I
want
to
thank
you
so
much
for
allowing
me
this
time
to
speak
and
to
share
some
of
the
rich
heritage
that
we
have
with
our
juneteenth
celebration.
We
had
it
this
year
via
zoom
and
last
year,
when
we
had
it
at
the
center.
We
had
over
between
four
to
five
hundred
people
coming
in
and
through
the
celebration
this
year
we
had
it
be
a
zoom
because
of
the
pandemic.
L
We
wanted
to
make
sure
everybody
was
safe
and
for
people
health
reasons,
but
we're
looking
forward
to
next
year
will
actually
be
on
june
19th.
So
we
appreciate
the
city's
acknowledgement
of
this
great
heritage
and
this
history,
that
is,
for
our
entire
community
to
celebrate.
J
D
Hello
I'd
see
I
wanted
to
thank
the
police
for
their
professionalism
and
composure
while
they
were
being
pelted
with
rocks
and
epithets.
Well,
people
in
the
middle
of
the
night
were
planning
to
rob
local
businesses.
Now
councilwoman
guerilla
was
not
the
first
public
official
that
I've
heard
after
riots
to
say
that
I'm
not
going
to.
D
Robbery,
but
I'm
not
going
to
tell
people
how
they
should
express
their
anger,
that
was,
after
the
murder
of
ernst
von
wrath
and
the
night
of
broken
glass.
Now
I
don't
unders
have
the
same
perspective
as
she
does
on
some
issues,
but
I
am
somewhat
familiar
with
the
use
of
violence
and
political
violence
and
vandalism.
I
grew
up
in
a
place
controlled
by
democrats
and
visited
places
controlled
by
socialists,
but
now,
if
you
want
to
work
with
the
police
and
making
them
even
better,
I
can
work
with
you.
D
We
can
all
work
together
on
that,
but
we
are
going
to
disagree
on
things.
If
you
want
to
try
to
work
on
the
problems
that
we
are
facing,
both
those
that
are
very
real
and
those
that
are
ones
of
perspective.
We
can
work
together,
but
we
are
going
to
have
disagreements
that
shouldn't
be
frightening
to
people.
This
is
a
republic.
D
J
A
J
J
I
do
not
see
any
hand.
Oh
oh
excuse
me,
council,
member,
bolan
and
carrillo.
J
A
g
and
k
council,
member
carrillo.
M
A
J
Okay,
council,
member
black,
did
you
were
you
seconding?
Okay.
Thank
you
yes
at
this
point,
madam
kirk,
then,
would
you
call
the
role
this
is
approving
it,
with
the
exception
of
the
three
items
full.
N
B
H
J
Thank
you
very
much.
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
turn
this
to
council
member
bolin
who
pulled
items
g
and
k.
Let's
go
ahead
and
start
with
item
g
donna.
C
Okay,
I'm,
I
am
gonna
approve
this,
but
I
just
wanted
for
clarification
to
go
over
some
of
the
information
and
kevin
you're
here.
So
maybe
you
can
answer
some
of
the
questions.
Is
it
correct
that
the
state
motor
fuel
tax
be
clear,
is
for
infrastructure
of
lighting,
or
is
it
just
for
the
electricity.
O
The
yeah,
thank
you,
the
motor
fuel
tax,
the
state
motor
fuel
tax
can
be
used
for
different
items
and,
and
one
of
those
is
for
a
street
lighting
expenses,
so
it
can
pay
for
the
electricity
and
also
the
what
we
call
the
street
rental
charge.
So
most
of
our
street
lights
in
bloomington
are
either
provided
through
ameren
or
corn
belt.
There
are
some
that
are
the
city's
responsibility,
but
we
can
pay
for
those
expenses.
Those
monthly
expenses
using
reimbursement
from
the
state
motor
fuel
tax
account.
Okay,.
C
Does
it
also
include
traffic
safety
signals.
O
That
1.3
million
in
the
budget
that
does
include
energy
for
the
traffic
signals
and-
and
that
is
that
mixes
things
up
a
little
bit
if
we
try
to
use
the
state
mft
for
that,
because
we
also
seek
reimbursement
from
idot
for
their
share
of
the
energy
costs
for
the
signals
that
are
either
a
100
percent
state
or
jointly
city
state.
So
if,
if
they're,
you
know
like
at
veterans
and
empire,
that
is
a
hundred
percent
state,
we
take
care
of
the
maintenance
and
we
bill
them.
O
The
energy
cost
at
100
percent,
but
for
a
signal
that
is
on,
say,
morrissey
and
lincoln.
It's
50
50,
where
it's
half
state
expense
and
half
city
expense,
and
so
that
gets
kind
of
complicated
if
we
try
to
do
full
reimbursement
for
those
energy
costs,
because
they're
already
reimbursing
us
and
so
it'd
kind
of
be
double
dipping
on
some
of
the
state
motor
fuel
tax.
If
we
try
to
do
that,
so
it's
cleaner
just
to
use
it
for
the
street
lighting
part.
Okay,.
C
The
reason
I'm
talking
about
this
is,
I
just
want
to
make
it
very
clear
that
there's
a
difference
between
the
state
motor
fuel
tax
and
the
local
motor
fuel
tax
and
what
it's
used
for,
and
my
understanding
is
that
the
state
motor
fuel
tax
would
be
used
for
major
projects
like
bridges
and
large
street
repair
and
rebuild,
but
that
the
local
motor
fuel
tax
is
for
the
asphalt
and
concrete
which
the
council
has
earmarked
for
that
purpose.
So
I'm
going
to
make
a
motion
to
approve
as
presented.
Okay
is
there
a
second.
J
Second,
second
by
council,
member
bray-
I
do
have
just
just
to
clarify
these-
are
these
are
really
important
things
that
obviously
clarified
as
citizens,
but
these
are
or
if
we
continue
to
need
to
do
these
kinds
of
things
with
the
consent
agenda,
then
we
maybe
we
may
need
to
talk
to
our
city
manager,
because
these
are
not
the
kinds
of
things
that
we
would
normally
pull
or
or
city
councils
or
county
boards
would
poll.
We
would
want
to
clarify
these
things
or
have
the
council
members
or
excuse
me.
J
N
Yeah
mayor,
thank
you.
I
just
wanted
to
point
out
that
deputy
city
manager
tyus
and
I
and
the
public
works
department
are
still
working
on
the
smart
street
lighting
proposal
that
I
put
forward
a
while
ago
and
that
I
hope
that
someday
soon
the
500
000
actually
covers
the
full
light
bill
for
the
entire
city
of
bloomington.
So
that's
kind
of
still
part
of
our
goal.
So,
okay.
J
J
I'm
glad
that
you
do.
I
know
I'm
just
just
clarifying
if
we
do
need.
If
there
are
some
things
that
we
really
need
to
clarify
and
have
the
administration
clarified,
then
we
should
talk
to
them.
So
we
don't
put
these
things
on
the
consent
agenda.
So
we
don't
have
these
kinds
of
situations
unless
people
are
have
a
direct
financial
kind
of
obligation
or
a
problem
with
it.
You
know
mostly,
we
should
be
approving
these.
N
E
J
Just
to
say,
don't
do
this
note
the
the
place
to
to
clarify
that
it
would
normally
be
an
aldermanic
comments
if
there's
a
thing
or
ask
the
city
manager
to
do
that,
so
we're
we're
not
all,
especially
if
everything
were
pulled
or
a
large
portion
of
these
things
were
pulled,
but
anyway,
council
member.
C
If
the
state
is
really
gonna
reimburse
us
on
this,
but
I
will
make
a
motion
to
approve,
as
presented.
J
N
H
J
Councilmember
carrillo,
you
have
pulled
the
last
item
that
we're
considering
separately
and
that
is
item
8c.
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
turn
that
over
to
your
concerns,.
J
All
right
is
there
a
second
to
not
approving
this
purchase.
J
Okay,
second,
by
councilmember
craybill,
any
further
discussion.
G
So
mayor
I'd
like
a
clarification
from
our
city
council,
corporate
council
city
attorney,
jeff
jurgens.
So
as
this
is
postured,
this
is
a
no
motion,
and
so
can
you
just
explain
to
us
how
how
this,
how
this
will
play
out.
J
But
I
think
it's
pretty
clear
jeff
is
that
right
I
mean.
If,
if
this
passes,
we
don't
spend
the
money.
If
it
fails,
then
we
would
return
to
a
motion
that
would
be
in
order
for
something
to
approve.
This
is
that
correct,
jeff.
J
C
C
I
A
E
H
J
I
J
Council,
member
painter,
second,
madam
clerk,
would
you
call
the
role
and
again
this
is
the
motion,
as
initially
presented,
eight
c
on
our
agenda.
I
E
H
J
Great
thank
you
very
much.
We
moved
next
to
the
regular
agenda
and
we
have
presentation
under
9a,
of
a
financial
update
fiscal
year.
2020.
J
2021
coveted
projections,
as
requested
by
the
finance
department,
and
we
have
a
presentation
by
mr
scott
rathman
and
then
approximately
10
minute
council
discussion.
So
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
well.
First
of
all
start
with
the
billy
billy
did
you
want
to
have
add
anything
before
I
turn
it
over
to
scott.
K
As
you
know,
phase
four
of
the
state's
recovery
plan
started
june
26th,
which
is
essentially
meant
that
we're
two
months
into
this
budget
of
almost
a
full
quarantine
as
scott
and
the
manager
have
discussed
in
the
past,
we've
been
very
careful
in
our
projections
and
that,
coupled
with
the
the
budget
plan
that
you
approved,
which
allowed
for
us
to
realize
some
savings
and
the
fact
that
revenues,
some
revenues
have
come
in
better
than
projected,
have
meant
that
you
know
we're
at
a
position
where
we're
not
anywhere
near
out
of
the
woods,
but
we're
we're
better
than
expected,
not
to
steal
any
of
scott's
thunder
but
I'll.
K
Let
him
take
this
from
there.
Thank
you.
P
Well,
that
was
a
great
summary
thank
you,
deputy
city
manager.
Tonight,
it's
it's
kind
of
a
combo
platter.
We're
going
to
I'm
going
to
make
a
couple
of
brief
comments
about
20..
P
We
don't
have
any
material
changes
from
last
month
and
then
update
council
mayor
and
the
community
on
our
covet
projection
projection
for
the
impact
so
we're
you
know
all
things
being
held
equal
for
the
21
budget.
What
kind
of
impact
are
we
looking
at
at
this
point
in
time?
P
There's
a
lot
of
fluidity
still
in
this
situation
with
sales
taxes,
we
only
have
one
full
month
of
full
full
quarantine
of
results,
visibility
on
those
results
to
look
at,
but
we're
going
to
try
to
update
this
projection
monthly
and
and
and
try
to
keep
everyone
abreast
as
to
what
we're
thinking
what
our
best
estimation
is
related
to
the
impact
so
phil
can
you
bring
up
the
presentation?
Please.
P
And
next
slide:
please:
oh
there
we
go.
You
can
start
right
there,
no
go
back
one!
Please
I'm
going
to
make
a
couple
of
comments.
Then
phil
asked
me
if
I
wanted
to
take
control
of
the
presentation,
I
thought
well
we'll
avoid
a
couple
awkward
moments
of
me
trying
to
load
it
on
to
control
the
screen,
and
here
we
are
with
some
awkward
moments.
Anyway,
we
have
the
word.
I
have
the
word
prelim
in
here,
because
we're
still
doing
the
audit
most
most
council
members
are
aware.
P
I
think
that
the
the
audit
actually
takes
up
to
six
months
to
complete.
P
That's
that's
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
time
for
most
people
to
get
their
heads
around,
but
if
you
realize
that
we
we
don't
get
our
final
revenues
until
we're
two
months
into
the
following
year
and
then
there's
a
lot
of
activity
related
to
the
audit.
We
have
actuaries
look
at
our
insurance
reserves.
P
You
know
the
police
and
pension
police
and
fire
pension
audits,
etc,
etc.
It
takes
quite
some
time-
and
you
know
just
the
vendor-
invoices
that
continue
to
come
in,
so
this
is
still
preliminary,
but
we're
pretty
close
right
now.
So
I'm
pretty
confident
that
we're
going
to
be
right
around
these
numbers
when
we
finish
up
the
year.
P
P
We
have
some
significant
impact
related
to
covit.
Now
this
is
compared
to
budget.
So
I
want
to
highlight
the
fact
that
we
had
projections.
We
had
budgetary
projections
for
our
revenues
going
into
the
end
of
the
year,
based
on
the
strong
first
10
months
of
the
year.
The
realized
revenues
that
we
had
sales
taxes
were
doing
well.
Food
and
beverage
was
doing
extremely.
You
can
look
at
these
budget
variances,
but
we
were
estimating
that
we're
going
to
be
on
the
other
side
of
that
plus
these
numbers.
P
So
right
now
our
current
estimate
is
that
cobit
has
had
about
a
1.8
million
dollar
impact
on
20..
Most
of
these
numbers
are
finalized.
Those
numbers
we
thought
were
going
to
be
somewhat
worse
than
that.
I
just
discussed
that
last
month,
so
we're
fairly
pleased
with
the
way
we
came
in
at
the
end
of
20
on
these
major
revenues.
P
P
Favorable
unfavorable
at
the
bottom
has
gone
down
by
a
couple.
Hundred
thousand
dollars
was
approximately
eight
eight
hundred
eighty
thousand
dollars
last
month,
but
we're
still
running
through
the
audit
adjustments
and
with
that
audit
review,
we
review
old
pos
and
we
typically
end
up
closing
out
some
old
pos
purchase
orders
during
the
year
and
realizing
some
savings
from
that.
So
for
now,
I've
just
included
a
250
thousand
dollar
audit
final
adjustment
down
at
the
bottom.
So
with
the
six
hundred
thirty
thousand
dollar
net
favorable.
P
Surplus
that
we're
looking
at
for
the
year,
combined
with
our
opening
fund
balance
and
then
our
adjustment
for
the
restricted
fund
balance
that's
going
towards
some
of
those
expenditures
and
250
000
final
audit
adjustments
we're
looking
at
still
around
that
24
million
dollar
final
fund
balance
probably
going
to
be
better
than
that.
Actually,
because
I'm
assuming
that
250
000
number
is
going
to
be
somewhat
better,
so
24
plus
million
dollars
in
final
fund
balance
similar
to
last
month.
But
I
just
wanted
to
comment
that.
P
As
I
mentioned
at
the
start
of
the
presentation,
we
finally
have
visibility
on
one
full
month
of
quarantine
results
for
our
sales
tax.
So
this
this
situation,
as
I
mentioned,
was
fluid.
Things
are
going
to
keep
moving,
but
we've
got
a
month
worth
of
worth
of
sales
tax.
We
have
some
visibility
on
our
food
and
beverage
and
some
of
our
other
major
taxes,
so
that
provides
us
an
opportunity
to
update
update
that
projection
that
we
did
in
april
next
slide.
Please.
P
Before
I
launch
into
the
updated
projection,
I
just
wanted
to
revisit
the
work
we
had
done
back
in
april
and
some
of
the
assumptions
that
we
had
used
to
recap.
We
went
through
all
the
line
items
of
the
general
fund
and
we
broke
down
our
our
model
into
two
categories:
basically,
an
impact
related
to
the
shelter
in
place
months
and
then
a
trailing
recessionary
impact
for
the
remainder
of
the
year
so
quarantine
months.
P
You
know,
we
range,
as
you
can
see
there,
50
for
sales
tax
up
to
100
for
video
gaming,
doing
the
research
we
applied
an
eight
and
a
half
percent
recessionary
impact
for
the
remainder
of
the
year,
and
then
we
came
up
with
the
three
scenarios
at
the
bottom
of
the
screen
related
to
the
months
of
of
quarantine.
At
that
point
time
we
didn't
know
when
that
was
going
to
be
lifted,
so
one
we
had
a
may
first
lift
five
million
dollar
impact
june,
1st
7.3
and
the
july
1st
9.5.
P
So
at
this
point
time,
as
billy
had
mentioned,
we're
really
looking
at
a
two-month
quarantine
impact
on
our
financials,
even
though
it
was
partially
lifted
during
may
and
june.
We
basically
are
taking
a
conservative
approach
and
looking
at
two
months
next
slide.
Please.
P
This
is
some
of
the
the
key
timing
in
the
reopening
the
governor
put
into
place,
and
this
is
how
we
base
what
we
base
those
assumptions
on
that
two-month
quarantine.
You
can
see
that
the
further
expansion
of
retail
to
50
occurred
in
may,
but
we're
really.
I
won't.
I
won't
dive
too
deep
in
the
weeds
here,
but
our
sales
taxes
I
kind
of
want
the
cup
the
public
to
understand
when
a
retail
sale
occurs.
P
If
that
occurs
in
april,
we
don't
see
that
deposit
from
the
state
until
july
and
then
our
revenue
recognition
policy
says
we
can
only
back
date,
two
months
so
april
is
obviously
three
months
after
july.
So
we
end
up
back
dating
april's
retail
sales
to
the
month
of
may
so
really
april
and
may
retail
sales
were
under
full
quarantine.
So
that
lends
itself
to
our
assumption
of
utilizing
two
full
months
of
quarantine
when
it
comes
to
doing
our
modeling,
our
impact
modeling
for
the
remainder
of
the
year
next
likely.
P
I
won't
read
all
these,
but
you
can
see
I'm
gonna,
I'm
gonna,
I'm
gonna
float
down
the
page
here,
a
little
bit
a
local
use
tax.
I
I
usually
mention
this
that
local
use
tax
is
our
internet
sales
tax.
That's
the
way
it
comes
in
from
the
state,
but
doesn't
come
in
from
in
the
ver.
In
the
category
of
home
rule
it
comes
under
local
use,
so
you
can
see,
there's
purchasing
that's
still
occurring.
It's
actually
increases
increasing
I'm
from
internet
purchases,
but
it's
it's
nowhere
near
offsetting.
P
The
home
rule
and
state
sales
tax
impacts
that
we're
seeing
here.
The
other
material
impact
is
hotel.
Motel,
no
great
surprise
there,
a
70
reduction
offer
our
one
month,
budget,
101
thousand.
Seventy
percent.
Currently,
we're
we're
estimating
that
we're
we're
seeing
about
an
impact
of
about
1.5
million
dollars
in
reductions
from
covid
to
date.
421
next
slide,
please.
P
So
that
that
one
month
of
information
has
provided,
as
I
mentioned
earlier,
provided
us
the
ability
to
update
our
projection,
so
this
exhibit
is
a
little
confusing,
but
I
would
like
everyone
to
understand
again
that
we
we
broke
down
our
modeling
by
months
of
quarantine
or
shelter
and
then
a
recessionary
tail.
So
the
first
two
columns
you
can
see
the
assumption
we
used
back
in
april
for
the
reduction
for
those
quarantine
months,
so
home
rule
sales
tax.
P
We
assume,
based
on
the
facts
in
the
things
we
were
reading,
that
there
was
going
to
be
a
50
reduction.
The
previous
screen
showed
that
it
was
around
32,
but
we're
rounding
down
a
little
bit
because
we
had
some
partial
months
of
quarantine
there.
So
we've
adjusted
our
our
assumption
to
31
state
sales
tax
we
had
at
50.
We
took
it
down
to
23
for
the
months
of
quarantine,
local
motor
fuel,
a
dramatic
change,
75
percent.
You
know
we
assumed
no
one
was
driving
to
work.
P
P
We
didn't
take
amusement
tax
down
at
all
on
for
a
quarantine
going
into
this.
In
hindsight,
we
realized
that
you
know
the
vcpa
has
amusement
attacks.
The
arena
had
amusement
attacks.
There's
you
know
the
theaters
in
town,
so
you
know
we
took
that
down
by
40
for
the
quarantine
months
and
then
and
then
going
off
to
the
right
here
to
go
through
these
two
columns.
These
are
the
recessionary
trails
for
the
remainder
of
the
year.
So
if
we
have
two
months
of
quarantine,
we're
gonna
have
two
months
of
potential
recessionary
impact.
P
The
eight
and
a
half
percent
was
what
we
use
across
the
board
for
all
categories
for
amusement.
We
applied
a
30
reduction
for
the
remainder
of
the
year
and
basically,
that's
our
our
reading.
Our
understanding
is
that
the
the
assembly
restrictions,
for
you
know
the
groups
greater
than
50
is
going
to
stand
in
effect
for
quite
some
time,
so
that's
going
to
impact
the
theaters
in
the
arena
and
the
bcpa
and
then
hotel
motel.
P
While
we
took
it
down
90
for
the
months
of
quarantine
and
we
revised
that
to
70
percent,
we
only
had
an
eight
and
a
half
percent
decrease
for
the
remainder
of
the
year,
but
we
took
that
down
by
50
percent
for
the
remainder
of
the
year
and
so
those
two
categories,
the
hotel,
motel
and
amusement
between
the
two
that
was
a
800
000
additional
reduction
in
revenues,
while
all
the
other
categories
went
up
and
then
the
comment
at
the
bottom,
I
wanted
to
highlight
mostly
discuss
the
major
tax
revenues,
but
as
part
of
these
revisions,
we've
taken
the
park
parking,
that's
for
the
garages
and
ordinance
violations,
bcpa
and
the
zoo
down
considerably
for
the
remainder
of
the
year
next
slide.
P
P
These
are
the
monetary
impacts
of
the
percentages
that
we
we
just
discussed.
I
should
have
included
a
column
off
to
the
right
to
show
the
difference.
My
apologies
for
that,
but
for
home
rule
sales
tax
just
to
highlight
a
couple
here:
I'm
using
the
50
reduction
we've
had
3.6
million
dollar
for
a
two-month
quarantine
and
that's
gone
down
to
about
2.9.
So
that's
a
700
a
little
over
700
000
improvement
on
a
projected
impact
for
sales
tax
and
then
on
down.
Six.
The
difference
for
state
is
about
635
000.
P
P
We
just
saw
that
it's
actually
above
budget,
but
to
be
conservative.
We
left
it
basically
flat
replacement
tax.
That's
that's
a
form
of
income
tax
left
that
flat
hotel
motel.
You
here's
what
I
was
speaking
about
earlier.
We
did
have
a
projected
impact
of
364
000.
Now
it's
880,
so
that's
roughly
a
500
plus
thousand
dollar
additional
reduction
that
we're
looking
at
then
amusement
tax,
taking
that
down
from
85
000
impact
to
315.
So
that's
another
230
000
impact
next
slide.
P
So
where
does
that
kind
of
get
us
from
a
summary
level?
The
total
revenue
reduction?
This
is
including
the
major
taxes
that
I
just
spoke
to
specifically
including
parks
parking
all
revenues
across
the
board
that
were
impact
aquatics.
Obviously,
that's
part
of
parks.
The
current
projection
is
a
9.8
million
reduction
in
revenues.
P
P
So
what's
the
net
impact
8.5
million
dollars
and
as
of
today,
of
course,
that's
still
in
motion,
but
that's
versus
9.5
million
dollars
in
april,
so
a
1
million
dollar
improvement.
We
had
significant
improvements
with
some
of
the
realized
revenues
that
we
saw
in
many
categories,
but
also
realize
some
categories:
we're
not
going
to
fare
as
well
on
the
other
side
of
the
quarantine,
because
there's
still
restrictions
related
to
assemblage.
P
So
how
are
we
going
to
cover
that
eight
and
a
half
million?
Well,
back
in
april,
we
came
up
with
five
identified.
Five
million
dollars
related
to
scenario
number
one
1.25
of
that
was
use
of
fund
balance,
so
they
kind
of
come
up
with
a
use
of
fund
balance
calculation
here
of
the
5
million,
without
the
1.25
million,
that
was
3.8
million
of
non-reserve
identified
savings,
so
those
were
delayed
projects,
delayed
equipment,
managed
expenses,
expenses
saved
from
20
that
rolled
into
fund
balance
for
capital
improvement.
P
Specifically,
we
put
off
the
move,
so
all
things
being
held
equal,
we
would
need
an
additional
use
of
reserves
of
4.7
million
dollars.
So
how
does
that
look
rolling
forward
from
20
20
20.,
assuming
our
24
million
dollar
ending
fund
balance?
P
I
just
reviewed
a
few
minutes
ago,
if
we
utilize
4.7
of
that
to
cover
we'd
end
up
with
19.3
million
dollars
of
ending
fund
balance
in
the
general
fund,
and
that
is
that
meets
with
the
gfoa
recommended
two
months,
which
is
about
16.7
percent
of
annual
operating
expenditures
or
roughly
18
million
dollars
for
us.
So
to
summarize
that
it's
the
same
message
been
delivering
the
last
couple
of
months,
we're
in
a
good
position
because
of
our
reserve
balances.
P
Our
revenues
are
trended
a
little
better
than
our
original
projection,
so
this
is
providing
us
the
opportunity
to
still
kind
of
ease
into
21
still
and
and
keep
an
eye
on
the
changes
and
the
developments
related
to
covid
and
and
we're
keeping
our
eye
on
revenues.
We
chart
those
monthly.
P
We've
addressed
a
lot
of
the
upfront
commitments
that
we
would
find
ourselves
getting
into
at
the
beginning
of
the
year,
including
the
asphalt
and
concrete
budgets,
and
so
we
put
ourselves
in
a
position
to
basically
I
hate
to
use
this
term,
but
to
wait
and
see,
because
we're
not
just
waiting
to
see
him
we're
being
very
proactive
about
watch
next
slide.
Please.
P
And
the
first
three
lines
are
are
the
things
I
just
mentioned
very
we're
taking
a
very
diligent
approach
to
this.
We
know
that,
potentially
we
could
see
some
backtracking
in
in
the
phases
from
the
governor.
I'm
sure
a
lot
of
people
have
seen
some
of
the
headlines
from
today
about
the
restaurant
closures
in
town,
so
the
numbers
that
we've
just
that
I've
just
presented-
they're
they're
very
fluid.
P
I'm
overusing
that
term,
but
I
can't
emphasize
it
enough
we'll
be
updating
those
each
month
next
month,
I'll
start
kind
of
the
regular
21
monthly
finance
directors
report,
but
we'll
always
be
kind
of
addressing
this,
this
covent
impact
and
how
it's
how
it's
looking
in
the
long
term,
what
we
think
our
total
deficit,
not
total
yeah
deficit
is
going
to
be
in
the
general
fund
and
what
we're
going
to
need
to
cover
that
again.
We.
P
Here,
at
the
end
that
our
enterprise
funds
are
on
track,
the
revenues
are
on
track.
We
haven't
seen
any
reductions
in
consumption
for
the
water
water
fund,
so
everything
is
tracking
very
well
there.
I
wanted
to
remind
the
public
and
council
that
our
adopted
budget
books
for
21
are
online
now
and
there's
there.
The
budget
and
brief
is
online
as
well.
It's
a
very
good
document
that
kind
of
summarizes
the
major
expenditure
categories
for
the
city,
so
sorry
for
the
long
rambling
update.
I
hope
that
was
helpful
and
I'll.
J
Thank
you
very
much
questions.
I'm
going
to
start
the
council
10-minute
q,
a
here
council
members,
any
questions
council,
member
matthew.
I
see
your
handout.
N
Thanks
mayor,
thank
you,
scott
great
report.
I
mean
not
not
that
I'm
happy
about
all
the
news,
but
it's
easy
to
understand,
I
think
for
us
and
residents.
So
I
really
appreciate
that.
I
also
appreciate
you
real
quick
spotlighting,
the
news
that
a
bunch
of
our
local
restaurants
closed
down
over
the
weekend.
N
I
know
most
of
them
decided
they
wanted
to
close
down
and
send
all
of
their
employees
to
get
tested
out
of
a
preponderance
of
safety,
and
I
think
that
was
exactly
the
right
move.
It
takes
a
lot
of
courage
as
a
business
owner
to
to
to
make
that
step.
So
I
think
we
should
be
applauding
them.
N
I
also
wanted
to
highlight
something:
you
said
that
internet
sales
are
still
going
up,
and
I
know
that
for
obviously
a
couple
months
that
were
there
was
not
a
lot
of
options
for
people
other
than
buy
online,
but
if
you
could
just
clarify
my
understanding
is
that
the
that
local
use
tax?
That's
the
internet
tax
is
not
actually
based
on
our
local
residents
purchasing,
but
right
now
it's
actually
based
on
a
formula
and
the
percentage
of
residents
in
the
state
of
illinois
that
live
in
bloomington.
Is
that
correct?
N
That
is
correct,
yes,
okay.
So
what
that
does?
Is
that
means
that
you
know
our
residents
dollars?
A
proportion
of
those
are
also
going
to
other
cities
that
are
smaller
than
us
or
where
maybe
people
aren't
spending
as
much
elsewhere
in
the
state
right.
N
That
is
correct.
Okay,
so
I
just
want
to
encourage
everybody
who's
watching
this
to
do
your
best
to
shop
local,
because
it
does
make
a
difference
not
only
to
our
budget
right
here
that
we're
concerned
about,
but
it
also
makes
a
difference
when
we
have
a
still
a
much
higher
than
average
unemployment
rate.
We
have
people
who
are
out
there
going
to
be
looking
for
work.
N
We
have
businesses
in
in
some
cases
where
they're
literally
hanging
on
by
their
fingertips
right
now
trying
to
make
it
through
all
of
this
nonsense,
and
so
I
think
we
just
need
to
encourage
everybody
to
shop
as
local
as
much
as
they
possibly
can
and
to
do
so
safely
with
a
lot
of
hand
washing
and
mask
wearing
and
just
giving
everybody
a
little
extra
grace,
because
we're
living
through
very
crazy
and
trying
times
that
nobody
could
have
possibly
predicted.
N
J
You
very
much
councilmember
matthew,
other
comments
or
questions
for
mr
rathbun,
seeing
none
going
once
going
twice.
Okay,
thank
you.
Thank
you.
Scott
very
much
appreciate
it
and
thank
you
for
all
your
hard
work
at
this
point.
We're
going
to
go
on
to
number
excuse
me:
yeah
number,
nine,
but
letter
b,
consideration
and
potential
action
regarding
ordinance
2020-18
and
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
turn
this
over
to
mr
tyus.
You
have
a
a
brief
presentation
or
comments,
and
then
we
can
turn
over
to
council
if
there
is
any.
J
If
there
are
any
questions.
Excuse
me.
K
Thanks
mayor,
I
actually
will
be
very
brief.
I
don't
have
any
updates.
As
you
know,
this
is
something
that
we
put
on
the
agenda
every
meeting,
as
per
your
request,
just
to
make
sure
that
there's
nothing
that
you
want
to
add
or
change,
and
so
no
changes
to
this.
Okay.
J
Questions
of
city
or
acting
city
manager
tyus.
Thank
you
very
much.
We're
going
to
move
on
to
item
9c
consideration
and
action
on
council
member
milla
wamboy's
agenda
initiative
proposal
to
make
juneteenth
a
city
holiday
as
requested
by
the
administration
department.
J
At
this
point,
we,
the
recommended
motion,
was
that
the
staff
be
directed
to
draft
and
bring
back
an
ordinance
for
consideration
formally
making
juneteenth
a
city
holiday.
I'm
going
to
turn
this
over
to
maboka
for
three
minutes,
and
then
we've
got
about
a
ten
minute
council
discussion.
B
Sorry
I
mean
I
was
rolling.
I
was
going
right
there,
but
sorry
so,
hopefully
now
everybody
can
hear
me
now.
You've
tempted
me
terry
to
do
this
in
french,
but
I
I
won't
so
let
me
just
first
say
that
I
want
to
thank
everyone
on
the
council
for
supporting
the
idea
of
bring
this
back
to
to
to
the
to
the
council.
You
know
as
an
agenda
item
I
I
know
a
lot
has
been
said
already.
I
think
we
we
understand
why
this
day
is
important.
B
B
I
I
wanted
to
just
kind
of
move
forward
and
share
a
couple
of
things
that
I
I
thought
would
help
to
give
this
a
little
bit
more
shape
for
the
staff
to
to
consider
as
they
look
to
draft
an
ordinance
one
of
the
first
thing
that
I
I
would
say
you
know.
As
I
looked
into
this,
I
know
we've
you
know.
Sometimes
people
use
the
term
city
holiday,
you
know
and
observance.
You
know
interchangeably
at
times.
B
So
what
I'm
really
looking
to
do-
and
I've
discussed
this
with
jeff
prior
to
to
the
meeting-
would
be
you
know
so
the
city
to
officially
recognize
the
day,
but
it
doesn't
necessarily
mean
that
we
take
the
day
off.
Okay,
so
city
staff
doesn't
take
the
day
off,
so
it
is
an
observance.
B
The
other
thing
that
I'm
looking
to
do
is
to
to
really
institutionalize
this
day
and
by
working
through
city
code
and
and
making
this
part
of
the
duties
of
the
human
relations
commission
to
work
on
this
day
and
to
bring
people
together
within
the
community
to
help
us
celebrate
today
because,
as
you
know,
oftentimes
when
you
know
folks
take
over
or
work
on
on
things
like
this,
as
as
volunteers
at
some
point
volunteer
fatigue
can
set
in
or
people
move
on,
you
know
with
their
life
because
they
they
move
to
a
different.
B
You
know
area
of
the
the
the
city,
the
state
or
or
the
country,
and
sometimes
you
can
have
a
drop-off.
So
what
I'm
really
looking
for
is
for
something
like
this
to
to
continue
on
beyond
all
of
us.
You
know
40
50
years
from
now,
and
and
so
that
we
also
do
not
have
a
time
where
we
don't
celebrate
it
for
a
couple
years
or
three
years.
You
know,
because
you
know
people
do
not
have
the
either
the
the
interest
or
the
energy
or
something
like
that.
B
Okay
to
to
to
to
put
this
on.
So
that's
why
I'm
looking
to
institutionalize
this
so
that
you
know
the
the
city
staff,
the
the
human
relations
commission
can
really
serve
as
the
spark
you
know
to
get
things
going
every
year,
the
other
thing
and
as
you've
heard
you
know
this,
this
event
is
pretty
important
to
people
in
the
community.
So
there
are
some
people
who
who
have
a
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
institutional
memory
about
it,
and
I-
and
I
think
I
would
like
the
staff
to
work
with
those
individuals.
B
You
know
you've
heard
some
of
them
during
public
comment:
willie
willie,
halbert
arlene
jose
the
bloomington
normal
black
history
project,
so
I'd
like
to
staff
to
also
work
with
them
to
to
put
this
this
event
together.
The
other
thing
that
I
was
you
know
I
think
we
should
also
consider
is
funding.
B
We
can
work
with
other
local
governments
to
to
really
make
sure
that
we
we
have
a
a
celebration
that
is
substantial
and
one
that
can
you
know,
gain
recognition.
B
You
know
in
the
area,
but
also
you
know,
even
in
the
state
and
and
also
you
know,
we
can
also
work
with
corporate
sponsors.
You
know
who
might
be
interested
in
supporting
such
an
idea,
and
I
the
and
then
the
the
the
last
piece-
and
I
know
one
of
the
I
had
mentioned
this
before-
is
the
programming
aspect
of
it.
B
You
know
which
to
me
is
probably
just
as
important
but
even
more
important,
because
it
really
you
know
it
would
be
an
opportunity
for
us
to
to
discuss
some
of
the
issues
of
concerns
that
we
have
in
within
the
city,
and
I
can
see
this
programming
to
be
bookended
with
you
know
kind
of
like
an
opening
event
like
a
parade,
but
then
you
know
at
the
end
of
it.
B
You
know
with
like
a
big
celebration
concert
involving
food,
but
in
the
middle
of
that
you
know
during
the
day
I
can
see
conversations
around
some
of
the
issues
you
know
of
concern
for
the
african-american
community.
I
can
see
something
like
a
youth
summit,
which
I
I
think.
J
You're
about
100
over
budget-
and
these
are
these-
are
logistics
that
we
could
talk
about
when
we
actually
made
this.
I
think
because
three
minutes-
and
it
was
really
just
to
say
why
this
was
important
rather
than
to
move
on
to
the
implementation
phase
and
all
the
details
of
implementation.
So
I
apologize,
but
at
this
point
I'm
just
going
to
we're
going
to
we're
going
to
shift
and
open
this
up
to
discussion.
I
think
we
know
what
the
story
is
and
johnny
painter
all
the
woman
painter.
J
I
J
Okay,
we
have
a
motion.
Is
there
a
second
second
second,
by
council
member
bright?
Now
let
me
just
if
I
can
mavoca
just
go
ahead
and
ask.
Were
you
this
your
your
request
and
what
we
see
in
writing
here
says
a
city
holiday.
J
B
J
Well,
that's
something
we'll
have
to
discuss,
because
I
don't
there
isn't
anything
that
is
a
city
holiday
where
people
don't
get
the
day
off
and
would
it
would
it
be
demeaning
to
juneteenth
if
this
were
the
one
thing
that
you
did
not
get
a
day
off
for
and
I
think
that
that's
a
question.
Well,
it's
not
what
we
need
to
answer
now.
It's
just
one
right,
the
the
staff,
I
think.
Maybe
we
can
turn
to
billy.
J
You
know
at
some
point
and
to
say
maybe
we
can
bring
it
back
with
both
in
both
forms
city
holiday
without
a
day
off
city
holiday
with
a
day
off
and
we're
right,
but
I
do
have.
We
do
have
a
motion
in
a
second
other
people
want
to
speak
to
this
council
member
carrillo
and
then
matthew,
jen.
M
I'm
very
supportive
of
the
recognition
of
juneteenth,
and
I
agree
with
your
assessment
that
it
would
be
strange
that
that
be
the
only
holiday
where
people
still
have
to
work.
So
I
I
think,
if
we're
gonna
do
it,
then
we
should
commit
to
it
and
we
should
make
it
a
real
official
holiday,
just
like
all
the
other
ones.
Okay,.
J
Thank
you,
jay
council
member
matthew,.
N
No,
I
I
just
wanted
to
say:
I
think
that
this
is
a
fabulous
idea.
I
appreciate
you
bringing
it
forward
and
I
I
also
just
want
to
make
the
comment
that
I
do
fully
still
plan
on
being
here,
50
years
from
now,
maybe
not
on
council,
but
still
here.
Well
that.
J
J
Okay,
so
at
this
point
I
suspect
well,
we
have
emotion
on
the
floor
in
a
second,
and
this
is
with
respect
to
making
this
a
holiday.
J
I
I
suspect,
billy
when
when
this
is
brought
back
based
on
the
feedback
that
you're
receiving
should,
would
you
think
we
would
bring
this
in
two
forums,
one
that
would
give
people
the
day
off
and
one
that
would
not
billy?
What
are
there
logistical
issues
with
this.
K
One
of
the
things
that
I'd
like
to
request
is
the
ability
for
us
to
have
a
discussion
about
that
as
a
staff
and
then
maybe
provide
an
update
to
you
prior
to
the
meeting.
We
will
work
towards
putting
this
together
as
it
was
presented
tonight,
but
also
have
a
discussion
about
some
of
the
other
items,
and
so
we
will
take
that
tack.
If
that's
okay
with.
C
J
E
Thank
you
and
and
I'll
I'll,
just
say
that
thanks
again
maboka
for
bringing
this
forward
and
I'm
not
really
in
a
huge,
this
doesn't
need
to
be
brought
back.
I
think
next
month
or
anything,
and
you
know,
given
that
it's
it's,
it
is
timely,
of
course,
but
I'd
love
to
get
the
feedback
of
the
human
relations
commission,
the
cultural
commission
on
this
topic,
as
we
go
through
the
options,
as
donna
mentioned,
the
more
folks
that
are
weighing
in
on
these
things
and
providing
that
feedback,
I
think,
is
better
for.
B
J
Thank
you
at
this
point,
madam
clerk,
would
you
call
the
role.
P
F
J
K
Billy
yep
there
we
go.
Thank
you
mayor
and
phil.
If
you
would
put
the
slide
first
slide
up.
I'd
appreciate
it,
as
you
can
see,
on
the
screen.
August.
2Nd
through
8th,
is
national
farmers
market
week,
which
actually
is
an
exciting
time
in
that
our
our
internal
economic
development
team
will
have
several
promotions
as
part
of
this,
they
will
be
offering
it
was
being
called
a
double
link
match
through
green
top
grocery
and
link
up
illinois
grants.
K
What
that
means
is
that,
when
patrons
purchase
farmers
market
tokens
through
their
link
cards,
they
will
be
what
they
purchase
will
be
double
matched
up
to
25.
So
an
expenditure
up
to
25
bucks
could
actually
become
50.
So
that's
exciting
for
for
folks
who
are
link
card
users
and
who,
in
a
lot
of
cases
frankly,
do
not
have
access
to
fresh
fruits
and
vegetables,
and
so
we're
excited
about
that
program.
K
The
market
will
also
be
hosting
a
series
of
market
swag
giveaways
through
facebook,
through
their
facebook
and
instagram
accounts,
so
be
on
the
lookout
for
that.
The
the
farmers
market
has
really
been
very.
It's
been
popular
since
we've
actually
returned
to
the
downtown
bloomington
area
which
we're
excited
about.
I
think
that
last
reports
were
that
there
were
more
than
2
000
attendees
during
the
last
event,
and
so
again
people
are
excited
about
being
back
outdoors.
K
K
Mclean
county
remains
among
the
top
counties
in
the
state,
as
it
relates
to
participation
and
again
we
want
to
continue
that
and
finally,
I
don't
have
a
slide
for
this,
but
it's
been
referenced
on
a
couple
of
occasions.
Tonight,
alderman
matthew
mentioned
being
diligent
as
it
relates
to
the
pandemic.
K
Let's
not
forget
that
that
thing
is
still
here
and
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we
encourage
the
community
to
remain
diligent
practicing
the
guidelines
that
are
being
suggested
as
it
relates
to
staying
safe,
because
it's
it's
it's
one
of
those
things
where,
unfortunately,
it
spreads
quickly
and
as
we're
seeing
it's
spreading
quickly,
so
we
really
want
to
encourage
people
to
remain
diligent
in
doing
the
things
that
they
need
to
do
in
this
community
to
remain
safe
and
other
than
that.
J
J
H
Thank
you
mayor
next
week
at
this.
At
this
time,
monday
august
3rd,
6
pm
I'll
be
having
my
monthly
town
hall,
it'll
be
virtual,
and
so
there's
a
facebook
event
out
for
that.
I
H
Town
hall
last
month-
and
we
talked
a
little
bit
about
the
impact
of
george
floyd's
death
and
a
number
of
the
of
the
ward
8
residents,
asked
that
chief
donath
speak
at
the
next
town
hall
and
the
chief
has
graciously
agreed.
So
chief
donald
will
be
there
available
to
answer
questions
at
next
monday's
town
hall.
Thanks.
J
N
Thanks
mayor,
so
first
I
wanted
to
give
a
shout
out
to
the
public
works,
guys
for
getting
out
there
and
rocking
out
the
bulk
waste
pickup
through
the
town.
I
got
a
lot
of
positive
feedback
from
ward
one
residents
at
how
quickly
they
showed
up
grabbed
everything
and
we're
off
to
the
next
spot.
I
think
that
we're
really
getting
this
down
to
a
science
and
as
we
move
throughout
the
town,
so
that's
step
one
or
part
one.
The
second
thing
just
to
go
to
billy
referencing
the
census
is.
N
I
have
a
couple
of
friends
that
have
been
hired
by
the
census
group,
and
so
they
are
training
and
gearing
up
to
start,
knocking
on
doors
soon
like
in
the
next
couple
of
weeks.
So
if
you
don't
want
your
door
knocked
on,
you
can
go
online
to
census2020.gov
and
take
like
the
five
minutes
it
takes
to
fill
out
the
census,
because
I
think
that
they're
gonna
come
knock
on
your
door
up
to
five
different
times,
which
of
course
costs
everybody
taxpayer
money
to
pay
somebody
to
come
knock
on
your
door.
N
So
if
you
don't
want
to
be
bothered
at
home,
you
can
go
to
census2020.gov
and
spend
five
minutes,
and
then
they
will
leave
you
alone.
So
that
is
gonna
happen
and
they
will
come
knock
on
they're
gonna
get
database
lists
of
every
person
who
did
not
or
every
property
where
somebody
did
not
fill
out
the
census,
so
lots
easier,
just
just
to
go.
Fill
that
thing
out.
Thank
you.
J
Thank
you,
councilmember
matthew,
next
councilmember
bolin,
black
and
amy.
C
Okay,
I'm
gonna
circle
back
a
little
bit
to
the
covet
and
the
coven
numbers
it's
not
going
away.
It
will
never
go
away
and
if
our
goal
is
for
it
to
be
zero,
that
is
never
going
to
happen.
C
My
my
number
one
recommendation
is
to
wash
your
hands
after
you
touch
anything
that
is
not
within
your
house.
Wearing
a
mask
sometimes
gives
a
false
sense
of
security.
That's
not
to
say
you
should
not,
but
I
see
many
people
with
their
mask
on
touching
their
mask
and
then
not
washing
their
hands.
So
I
just
cannot
stress
enough
washing
hands,
washing
hands,
washing
hands
and
then
masks
number
two.
That's
all
I
have
to
say.
Thank
you.
Thank.
J
E
You,
terry,
and,
and
just
briefly,
you
know
we're
talking
a
lot
about
coven,
which
is
obviously
top
of
mind
and
we're
going
to
stay
on
it,
although
I
I
do
want
us
to
continue-
and
tim
has
alluded
to
this
in
many
cases
and
billy
has
as
well
of
the
day
after
covet
and
what
does
our
community
look
like
after
the
pandemic
subsides
and
whatever
measure
we
choose
as
to
donna's
point
and
and
one
of
the
things
that
I
continue
to
hear,
and
I
think
should
be
top
of
mind,
as
we
talk
about
downtown
bloomington
specifically,
is
that
there
are
there's
been
a
lot
of
really
positive
feedback
about
the
outdoor
dining
using
those
parking
spaces
to
provide
additional
seating.
E
You
know
just
anecdotally
people
who
have
not
really
traditionally
been
downtown
or
are
frequenting
it
more
often.
So,
as
we
come
back
with
policy
pieces
in
the
future,
here,
I'm
hoping
our
team
can
start
thinking
really
long
term
about.
What
can
we
do?
E
What
can
we
take
the
benefits,
the
opportunities
that
were
created
by
a
terrible
global
pandemic
in
in
terms
of
shaping
how
we
do
those
types
of
zoning
codes,
those
sorts
of
things,
because
that's
important-
and
it's
really
the
reception
from
the
residents-
has
been
really
positive
and
we're
here
to
make
people
happy.
M
Thank
you.
Thank
you
mayor.
I
also
want
to
applaud
local
businesses
that
have
selected
to
shut
down
just
to
make
sure
that
they
are
being
safe
and
the
sooner
that
we
all
comply
with
these
orders
from
our
health
department.
M
M
I
think
this
is
a
great
way
for
us
to
go,
and
I
especially
appreciate
the
collaborative
effort
that
he's
given
to
make
sure
that
all
of
our
stakeholders
have
it
have
a
voice
and
have
input
census,
senses
census,
get
that
census
done.
You
don't
want
people
coming
to
knock
on
your
doors.
It's
a
really
important
thing.
Also
public
works
has
done
a
great
job
with
bulk
waste.
M
Ours
was
gone
and
a
heartbeat
and
I've
heard
a
lot
of
positive
reports
from
constituents
as
well,
and
finally,
the
the
sidewalk
sale
that
that
happened
recently
downtown.
I
heard
from
a
lot
of
downtown
businesses
that
they
saw
people
they
don't
they
they
hadn't
seen
before
kind
of
wander
into
their
space.
So
I
I
agree
that
that
this
outdoor
opportunity
is
is
a
good
map
for
the
future,
and
I
also
look
forward
to
thinking
through
how
we
can
get
more
of
that
green
space.
So
thanks
everybody
have
a
good
night.
J
J
B
Yes,
I
won't
do
it
again
promise
now
just
a
quick
thank
you
to
everyone
for
supporting
the
initiative
of
juneteenth,
and
the
other
thing
that
I
want
to
say
is
that
I
know
at
some
point.
We
were
supposed
to
all
take
a
picture
because
of
the
scent
you
know
for
the
census
with
our
shirts,
and
this
might
be
you
know
I,
and
I
know
I
don't
know
how
we
do
that
you
know
with
social
distancing,
but
you
know
we
could
find
a
creative
way
to
do
it.
To
did
you
say.
J
B
So
yes,
so
I
I
think
it
would
be
nice
for
us
to
be
able
to
do
something.
You
know
we're
trying
to
make
a
last
push
for
people
to
to
promote
the
sentence.
So
if
we
can
do
something
creative,
I
don't
know
all
of
us
with
our
shirts
and
you
know,
pictures
or
calendar
scope
or
something
like
that.
I
think
that'd
be
nice.
