A
D
E
A
F
Thank
you,
mayor
and
council.
I
wanted
to
provide
a
covert
update
on
three
items:
chief,
scott
reports-
that
there
were
no
compliance
issues
over
the
past
couple
of
weekends.
Bloomington
police
department
continues
to
do
increased
checks
in
the
downtown
area.
That's
one
number
two
state
farm.
You
talk
about
a
company
that
really
takes
care
of
their
community.
F
We
just
received
or
are
in
the
process
of
receiving
5
000
masks
to
the
city
of
bloomington.
They
reached
out
a
couple
of
weeks
ago,
coordinated
the
efforts-
and
this
is
very
much
appreciated
and
you.
G
F
Typical
of
the
company,
they
didn't
want
too
much
recognition
but
they're
allowing
me
to
share
this
in
this
setting.
So
I
appreciate
that
next,
the
cdbg
money
we
have
received
about
four
and
four
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
dollars
originally
council
set
and
fifty
thousand
dollars
to
a
small
business
grant
program
up
to
forty
five
hundred
dollars
for
each
grant.
And
then
the
remaining
money
was
for
the
community,
an
update
on
the
numbers
we
have
on
the
small
business
application
side.
F
We
have
50
applications,
32
appear
to
be
qualified
and
we
have
140
nearly
141
dollars
of
that
hundred
and
fifty
that's
been
allocated
of
the
other
portion.
To
date
we
have
17
000,
that's
gone
out,
but
that
does
not
include
several
allocations
that
we've
got
for
the
community
side
of
the
cdbg.
Funding.
F
I
don't
have
those
numbers
but
we'll
provide
that
at
committee
the
whole
next
week,
but
it
looks
like
we
have
helped
nearly
in
this
community,
nearly
1600
households
have
been
helped
and
to
the
tune
of
nearly
one
million
dollars.
F
987
thousand
eight
hundred
and
seventy
two
dollars
to
be
exact,
and
this
is
something
that
I
will
follow
up
on
what
bloomington
township
we've
done
and
also
mcc
final
comment
regarding
the
small
business
grant
program.
F
We
have
additional
cedg
funds.
This
ultimately
will
go
in
front
of
council
but
see
an
opportunity
to
possibly
expand
that
and
allow
for
some
of
the
expenses
to
be
permissible,
such
as
outdoor
dining
in
the
fall
or
early
winter.
There's
some
discussion
of
buying
tents,
some
of
the
heating
systems
that
would
be
allowed.
That's
quite
costly
and
we've
got
opportunities.
So
that's
just
one
of
many
possibilities
that
will
come
back
in
front
of
council.
Thank
you.
A
We
have
presentation
of
the
city
of
bloomington
police
departments,

police

certificate

this
point
I'm
going

turn
over

the
others

That
would
have
gotten
to
this
stage.
So
I
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
learn
with
them,
and
I've
been
on
my
own
now
since
the
beginning
of
the
year,
and
I

Yes,

I've
had
such
a
wonderful
time

learned
so
much
and
can
see
this
as
being
a
long
time
career
so
yeah.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you

all

We

a
difficult

So

K
A
Bravo,
we're
gonna,
move
on
to
item
six
b
and
that's
recognition
of
appointments
and
reappointments
various
commissions.
Madam
clerk,
are
there
any
names
that
you
want
to
read
to
us
or
recognize.
C
A
Thank
you
very
much
and
we
want
to
thank
all
of
them
for
their
willingness
to
serve
and
give
their
ideas,
perspective,
expertise
to
the
community
to
the
citizens
of
bloomington
and
their
recommendations.
So
thank
you
all
and
thank
you
for
your
willingness
to
serve
for
absolutely
nothing.
We're
quite
appreciative
of
that.
Next,
we
move
on
to
public
comment.
Madam
clerk
other
than
those
that
have
been
received
in
email.
Are
there
others
waiting
to
speak
there.
C
Are
there
are
we
have
two
present
in
the
fishbowl
today,
serena
fish
and
catherine
hoy,
and
then
I
have
see
six
others
that
are
on
via
zoom.
A
A
E
I
want
to
do
a
positive
thing
for
change.
Things
have
been
so
dark
lately,
I'd
like
to
give
credit
to
numerous
city
employees
who
are
doing
their
job
and
helping
the
community
kevin
who's
head
of
public
works,
who's,
helping
me
and
a
west
side,
neighbor,
possibly
change
a
street
thing.
We
want
to
change
to
a
two-way
instead
of
a
one-way.
E
I
went
in
community
development
inspector
tony
brown.
This
is
the
second
time
we
have
a
derelict
property
that
we're
not
really
quite
sure
what's
going
on
with
it.
This
is
the
second
time,
though,
that
the
city
has
come
out
and
mowed
and
chased
the
critters
away,
so
we
appreciating
him
helping
and
the
city
keeping
our
street
looking
good,
at
least
that
the
bronzer
mode.
E
Also,
I
want
to
thank
mr
jim
mack
about
with
tim,
gleason,
jay
and
leslie
for
resolving
a
problem
at
the
arena
for
election
judges,
and
these
are
people
that
are
trying
to
serve
our
community
and
they
resolve
the
problem
and
we're
all
very,
very
happy,
and
thank
you
very
much
so
just
a
few
things
that
when
you
need
your
city
people
to
do
something
if
you
follow
the
the
lines
and
you
go
to
the
right
email
and
you
go
to
think
it's
amazing
what
you
can
get
done
in
the
city
of
bloomington.
E
E
L
L
The
need
is
more
vital
now
than
ever
as
we
see
ice
agents
and
detention
centers
in
the
united
states,
resorting
to
genocidal
practices
against
immigrants
and
asylum
seekers
once
again,
government
is
most
effective
on
the
local
level
and
each
of
the
city.
Council
members
has
the
ability
to
make
the
people
they
serve
safer
and
to
protect
the
people
that
make
our
community
so
wonderful,
regardless
of
immigration
status.
L
L
G
Ahead,
thank
you.
You
have
to
be
smarter
than
the
phone
there
good
evening,
mr
mayor
and
members
of
the
council
and
city
staff.
My
name
is
ed
neeves.
In
the
past
few
weeks
I
just
completed
my
term
as
president
of
illinois
realtors,
and
I
am
past
president
of
the
bloomington-normal
homebuilders
association
and
past
president
of
the
bloomington,
normal
realtors
association.
So
thank
you
again
for
letting
me
have
this
opportunity.
G
G
Maintaining
the
status
quo
means
that
for
one
or
two
family
dwellings,
installations
of
the
fire
sprinklers
will
remain
optional.
We
supported
this
position
when
the
city
adopted
the
current
2012
version
of
the
rrc,
and
we
reaffirm
our
support
for
the
optional
fire
sprinkler
system
in
the
2018
ri,
our
irc
that
you're
starting
to
adopt
tonight.
G
All
the
communities
that
surround
bloomington
also
provide
for
optional
sprinkler
installation.
They
followed
your
lead,
which
included
the
optional
language
in
the
current
version
of
the
code.
We
commend
the
city
of
bloomington
for
adopting
the
mandatory
author
language.
That's
in
the
current
version
and
with
a
mandatory
offer,
builders
are
required
to
offer
the
option
of
a
sprinkler
installation
to
the
homeowners,
and
the
decision
remains
in
the
hands
of
the
property
owner.
Who
decides
what
is
best
for
their
individual
situation?
G
As
president
of
illinois
realtors,
I
attended
many
state
and
national
meetings
and
everywhere
the
predominant
discussion
is
in
favor
of
preserving
consumer
choice
when
it
comes
to
sprinklage,
sprinklers
can
increase
the
cost
of
a
home
by
10,
000
or
more
depending
on
the
size
assessments
might
climb,
inspection
fees
go
up
and
the
maintenance
costs
increase
over
time.
With
these
systems,
illinois
already
gets
tagged
as
a
difficult
place
in
which
to
work
and
live.
Adding
more
costs
and
regulations
really
doesn't
make
any
sense.
G
The
national
association
of
realtors
estimates
that
one
job
is
created
for
each
two
home
sales
of
pre-existing
homes
with
that
ratio.
Obviously,
100
home
sales
generate
500
jobs
and
the
economic
impact
of
each
home
contributes
about
sixty
thousand
dollars
to
to
the
economy
for
new
construction
homes,
add
two
full-time
jobs
to
the
economy.
Each
new
home
employs
approximately
100,
laborers
contractors,
suppliers
and
trades
people
during
the
construction.
G
Each
new
home
adds
approximately
eighty
two
thousand
five
hundred
dollars
into
the
local
economy.
Just
in
the
first
year,
a
sprinkler
mandate
could
mean
fewer
homes
being
built,
which
means
fewer
jobs
created
and
existing
workers
laid
off,
and
in
the
past
several
years,
new
construction
permits
in
bloomington
have
been
dismal,
but
we
are
beginning
to
see
those
numbers
increase,
changing
the
current
policy
of
allowing
optional
fire
sprinkler
installation
in
one
and
two
family
dwellings
with
seal
bloomington's
fate.
New
development
will
go
elsewhere,
since
none
of
our
neighboring
communities
have
a
sprinkler
mandate.
G
Yes,
sir,
we
should
we
oppose
mandate
fire
sprinklers,
that
negatively
impact
the
affordability.
Everybody
in
this
issue
has
a
goal
of
making
their
homes
safe.
We
believe
consumer
choice
can
do
that.
So
again,
thank
you
to
the
board
of
deals
and
to
the
city
council
for
recommending
this
optional
sprinkler
installation,
and
we
ask
that
you
support
this
language.
Thank
you.
N
N
O
All
right,
good,
jeff,
council,
happy
columbus
day,
hope
you
enjoy
it,
I'm
sorry
to
see
jen's,
not
here,
I'm
sure
she's
celebrating
columbus
day,
I'm
going
to
read
a
passage
from
a
letter
that
teddy
roosevelt
wrote
after
the
end
of
world
war,
one
he
was
honorary
president
of
the
american
defense
society.
O
He
read
it
at
an
all-american
concert
and
it
goes
as
follows:
quote
there
must
be
no
sagging
back
in
the
fight
for
americanism
merely
because
the
war
is
over.
There
are
plenty
of
persons
who
have
already
made
the
assertion
that
they
believe
the
american
people
have
a
short
memory
and
that
they
intend
to
revive
all
the
foreign
associations
most
directly
interfere
with
the
complete
americanization
of
our
people.
O
In
the
first
place,
we
should
insist
that
if
the
immigrant
who
comes
here
does
in
good
faith,
become
an
american
and
assimilate
himself
to
us,
he
should
be
treated
on
an
exact
equality
with
everyone
else,
for
it
is
an
outrage
to
discriminate
against
any
such
man
because
of
creator,
birthplace
or
origin,
but
this
is
predicated
upon
the
man's
becoming.
In
fact,
an
american
and
nothing
but
an
american
if
he
tries
to
keep
segregated
with
men
of
his
own
origin
and
separated
from
the
rest
of
america,
then
he
isn't
doing
his
part
as
an
american.
O
We
have
room
but
for
one
language
here,
and
that
is
the
english
language,
for
we
intend
to
see
that
the
crucible
turns
our
people
out
as
americans
of
american
nationality
and
not
as
dwellers
and
some
in
a
polyglot
boarding
house,
and
we
have
room
for
about
one
sole
loyalty,
and
that
is
loyalty
to
the
american
people.
Amen.
O
A
Is
all
thank
you,
mr
reed
thanks,
madam
clerk.
P
Hello,
my
name
is
crystal
abel
and
I
have
lived
in
bloomington
normal,
my
entire
life,
I'm
calling
in
today,
because
I
want
to
urge
the
city
council
of
bloomington
to
finally
adopt
the
welcoming
city's
ordinance.
That
work
was
started
on
three
years
ago,
when
the
special
meeting
for
welcome
cities
discussion
was
cancelled
by
mayor
renner
in
july
of
2018.
P
It
was
a
punch
in
the
gut
for
the
dozens
of
people
and
organizations
that
worked
hundreds
of
hours
on
this
project
with
city
officials
more
than
two
years
later,
and
this
ordinance
has
been
brushed
under
the
rug
and
forgotten
about
by
everyone
on
the
council.
It
seems,
except
for
jen,
carrillo
and
jeff
cravel.
P
Today,
council
person,
jeff
crabble,
made
a
very
poignant
facebook
post,
outlining
the
history
of
christopher
columbus
and
how
similar
injustices
are
still
happening.
Today,
christopher
columbus
has
given
colonizers
a
legacy
of
brutality
and
genocide
that
continues
to
this
very
day
without
criminalization
of
immigrants
and
those
seeking
asylum
from
conditions
and
countries
that
the
united
states
had
a
hand
in
creating.
I
will
esco
what
council
person
crable
said.
We
can't
change
the
past,
but
we
don't
have
to
celebrate
it.
P
We
as
a
city
can't
change
federal
immigration
policy,
but
we
can
and
should
protect
all
residents
of
bloomington.
That
includes
a
welcoming
city's
ordinance.
Immigrants
of
any
status
should
feel
comfortable
in
reaching
out
for
assistance
to
the
bpd
and
know
that
their
immigration
status
will
not
be
disclosed
unless
mandated
or
approved
by
the
police.
Chief.
Our
police
chief
should
be
instructed
to
consider
the
impact
on
public
safety,
the
impact
to
the
individual
or
other
affected
parties,
and
the
risk
that
the
communications
will
impact
future
cooperation
by
police
and
the
immigrant
communities.
P
P
This
act,
which
took
effect
in
august
2018,
prohibits
detaining
on
immigration
alone
that
it
does
nothing
to
prohibit
racist
police
officers
and
sheriff's
deputies
from
detaining
immigrants
from
minor
offenses
that
they
might
let
someone
else
off
on
with
a
warning
for
after
discovering
someone's
immigration
status,
the
act
does
nothing
to
stop
law
enforcement
from
communicating
with
ice
and
giving
tips
on
where
to
find
people
in
our
community,
destroying
families
with
the
act
specifically
stating
nothing
in
this
section.
15
prohibits
communications
between
federal
agencies
or
officials
and
law
enforcement
agencies.
P
The
illinois
trust
act
does
nothing
to
protect
immigrants,
because
we've
all
seen
countless
records
of
police
violence
and
brutality
on
people
of
color,
our
friends
and
neighbors
all
over
this
country,
including
in
illinois.
It
does
not
address
institutional
and
systemic
racism
that
creates
bias
in
law
enforcement
officers,
where
it's
their
own
personal
judgment
being
used
and
determining
how
they
enforce
the
law
and
whether
those
applications
are
standard
practice
for
everyone
they
encounter,
regardless
of
race,
ethnicity
or
immigration
status.
P
When
the
illinois
trust
act
was
first
envisioned,
it
was
championed
as
a
way
to
increase
trust
among
immigrants
and
law
enforcement
to
encourage
them
to
come
out
of
the
shadows
and
feel
confident
that
they
could
report
crimes
against
them
without
fear
of
being
detained.
While
this
act
does
prohibit
this,
the
act
does
not
prohibit
law
enforcement
officers
from
putting
a
target
on
the
backs
of
these
immigrants
from
patrolling
their
neighborhoods
places
of
employment
or
keeping
an
eye
on
them.
With
the
intention
of
looking
for
minor
reasons
to
rest
and
detain.
A
P
A
Q
Thank
you.
My
name
is
trayvon
gaffney.
I
am
speaking
on
the
issue
of
the
welcoming
city
ordinance.
I
would
like
to
start
with
a
question.
I
would
like
you
all
to
think
about
what
happens
when
a
latin
family
cannot
report
a
crime,
that's
something
that
hopefully
hits
home
and
it's
something
that
you
can
identify
with
and
since
we've
had
a
serious
conversation
about
policing
in
in
bloomington
normal.
I
think
it's.
I
think
it's
important
for
us
to
really
consider
the
fact
that
it
would
be.
Q
It
would
be
redundant
to
use
any
municipal
funds
to
assist
a
well-funded
organization,
something
that
is
given
plenty
of
protection
by
the
american
government
that
by
using
any
of
our
city
funds
again,
we
would
be
ineffective
and,
if
speaking
to
the
nature
of
ineffectiveness,
I
would
like
you
to
consider
how
ineffective
a
police
officer's
job
is
when
they
cannot
properly
attain
information
about
situations
that
happen
in
the
community.
Q
When
a
family
is
worried
about
not
about
their
status
being
given
up
to
a
different
entity,
they
do
not
come
forward
about
certain
crime.
You
cannot
expect
a
community
to
be
able
to
come
forward
and
be
forthright
about
crimes
and
things
that
are
happening,
something
that
many
other
communities
have
the
privilege
of.
You
cannot
expect
them
to
be
able
to
do
that
when
they
have
that
fear
over
their
heads.
It
is
inhumane,
it
is
improper
and
it
is
a
shame
that
we
should
be
having
to
ask
for
this.
Q
Just
like
it
is
a
shame
that
we
are
celebrating
christopher
columbus
in
2020
to
pass
a
welcoming
city.
Ordinance
is
the
least
that
we
could
do
to
assist
even
our
police
in
this
time
where
we,
where
we
need
everybody
to
come
together
most
important
of
this.
I
would
like
you
all
to
ask
yourselves
what
you
would
do
if
you
could
not
report
a
crime,
how
that
feels
when
you,
as
a
person,
are
not
able
to
go
to
somebody
and
report,
something
that
has
happened
to
you.
C
D
C
You
are
exactly
right,
I
am
sorry,
councilmember
matthew,
you're,
exactly
right,
I've
got
it.
I
was
just
skipping
him.
I
apologize,
mr
garcia.
We
have
one
left
thanks.
Oh.
A
R
You
thank
you
apologize.
I
I
was
unmuted,
I'm
not
sure
what
happened
there,
but
glad
you
can
hear
me
now.
First,
as
always,
I
want
to
thank
the
councilman
and
woman
for
your
service
and
your
leadership.
R
This
has
been
a
very
rough
year
to
say
the
least,
and
we
are
appreciative
of
your
service
to
our
community,
especially
during
what
has
been
some
difficult
challenging
times
today.
I
have
two
issues
I
wanted
to
speak
in
support
of,
and
I
hope
you
can
find
it
in
your
heart
to
examine
both
requests
and
hopefully
get
behind
and
support
each
one
of
them.
First.
I
really
want
to
echo
very
strongly
the
call
for
indigenous
people's
day
to
be
officially
and
formally
recognized
in
lieu
of
christopher
columbus
day.
R
I
think
it's
important
that
we
start
telling
the
truth
if
you
are
a
child
of
color
growing
up
in
this
country,
while
you're
growing
up
meaning
in
your
most
fragile
and
most
formative
years
as
a
child,
you're
constantly
bombarded
with
messaging
about
how
everything
was
discovered
by
white
people.
Everything
was
founded
and
created
by
white
men
with
guns
who
came
here
to
conquer
new
land.
For
us,
we
are
fed
a
whitewashed
version
of
history
to
paint
columbus
as
a
discoverer
and
native
people
as
savages.
R
Now.
Just
imagine
if
you
are
a
native
child
being
taught
this
history
and
learning
the
truth
and
then
having
your
local
community
celebrate
columbus
day
every
year,
seeing
this
propaganda
over
and
over
through
our
history,
lessons
in
our
public
schools.
It
can
be
traumatically
scarring
for
native
children
and
children
of
color.
We're
told
that
white
people
created
everything
and
people
of
color
have
been
inferior
throughout
our
history.
R
We
cannot
keep
lying
to
our
children
or
we
will
never
learn
from
history
and
become
a
better
united
people.
Dismantling
systemic
racism
within
our
own
community
here
in
bloomington,
starts
with
us
telling
the
truth.
Please
replace
columbus
day
with
recognizing
indigenous
peoples
stay
here
in
our
local
community.
The
second
issue
that
I
want
to
stress
and
support
and
hope
that
you'll
support
is
the
call
that
is
being
renewed
by
our
community
to
make
the
city
of
bloomington
a
welcoming
city.
I
volunteer
with
many
different
immigrant
rights
and
immigrant
advocacy
organizations,
some
local,
some
national.
R
These
include
the
immigration
project
here
in
our
community,
as
well
as
ffi
freedom
for
immigrants,
assp
the
asylum
seeker
sponsorship
project
and
the
santa
fe
dreamers
project.
I
hear
first
hand
from
immigrants
that
I
work
with
as
they
tell
me.
If
I
do
one
tiny
thing
wrong,
I
have
to
worry
that
I
will
be
deported.
I
will
be
ripped
away
from
my
family.
Never
to
see
them
again.
R
Welcoming
city
ordinances
can
be
very
nuanced
policies
that
enhance
and
protect
the
lives
of
our
immigrant
community
here
locally,
not
just
a
couple
of
speakers
before
me.
We
all
heard
from
a
well-known
famous
local
racist,
john,
a
man
who
professes
that
people
cannot
speak
their
native
language,
people
like
john
yell
english,
only
at
people
who
only
know
their
native
language
like
him,
juan
john
that's,
her
name.
R
A
Thank
you
so
much
appreciate
that
madam
clerk
we
are
done.
Is
that
correct.
A
Thank
you,
mr
garcia.
Thanks
at
this
point
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
move
to
our
consent
agenda.
Are
there
any
items
of
the
abcd
that
are
listed
on
the
consent
agenda
that
any
council
member
would
like
to
have
for
separate
consideration?
A
I'm
looking,
I
don't.
Oh
councilmember
matthew.
D
Thanks
mayor,
I
just
I
guess
for
the
minutes.
I
just
had
a
quick
amendment
or
a
change
to
the
minutes
that
I
wanted
to
make.
So
if
you
want
to
do
that
right
now
or
if
you
want
to.
A
A
A
J
S
M
A
D
Thanks
mayor,
I
just
wanted
to
make
a
quick
amendment
to
the
minutes,
or
at
least
the
ones
that
were
published
to
us,
I'm
not
sure
if
leslie
updated
or
not,
but
in
section
9a
we
were
discussing
public
works
updates
last
time
and
it
says
that
I
asked
a
question
about
sidewalks
and
curbs
on
route
9,
and
I
was
actually
asking
about
sidewalks
and
curbs
on
clinton
street,
which
is
route
150..
That's
just
a
small
amendment.
Okay,
and
with
that
amendment
I
will
make
a
motion
to
approve
the
minutes
as
amended.
A
Okay,
we
have
a
motion
to
prove
the
minutes
as
amended
and
seconded
by
council
member
bray
and
just
for
the
record
to
make
it
clear.
We
were
just
talking
about
changing
route
9
to
route
150
and
clinton
boulevard.
Is
that
correct
jamie?
Yes,
thank
you
at
this
point.
If
there's
not
further
discussion,
madam
clerk,
would
you
call
the
role
to
approve
the
minutes
as
presented
and
then
amend
it?
I
should
say
I'm
sorry,
as
amended
not
presented.
Thank
you.
J
T
A
Thank
you
very
much
appreciate
that.
Thank
you,
madam
clerk.
We
move
on
to
our
regular
agenda
on
item
9a.
It's
consideration
of
an
ordinance
amending
the
bloomington
city
code,
including
chapter
10,
relating
to
the
adoption
of
the
2008
editions
of
the
international
cold.
Excuse
me,
code,
council,
building,
residential
swimming
pool,
mechanical
fire,
fuel
gas,
existing
building
and
energy
conservation,
and
that's
chapter
15.
so
and
then
chapter
45..
A
At
this
point
we
have
a
brief
literally
about
five
minute
presentation
by
our
city
manager
and
melissa
hahn,
and
then
we
have
a
fairly
brief
council
discussion.
So
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over.
First
of
all
to
mr
gleason.
F
F
U
Good
evening,
mayor
council
tonight,
before
you,
we
have
for
your
consideration
and
action
and
ordinance
and
mending
chapter
10,
chapter
15,
chapter
34
and
chapter
45
of
the
city
code,
as
as
it
was
presented
at
the
committee
of
the
whole
on
september.
21St
that
does
include
the
incorporate,
does
incorporate
the
recommendations
of
the
property
maintenance
review
board,
as
well
as
the
building
board
of
appeals.
U
So
the
motion
as
presented,
does
include
the
deletion
of
section
1103.5.1
of
the
2018
ifc.
As
city
manager
mentioned.
There
are
two
alternative
motions
included
in
your
packet.
Those
alternative
motions
include
that
you
include
the
1103.5.1
section
of
the
2018
ifc
or
that
you
include
and
require
installation
by
january
1
2024..
U
These
alternative
motions
were
also
presented
at
the
to
the
building
board
of
appeals,
who
did
recommend
the
deletion
of
this
section
of
the
code,
and
that's
really
all
I
have
for
a
presentation
this
evening,
as
and
as
the
city
manager
and
chris
mcallister
building
official
is
here
for
any
questions.
I'll
turn
it
back
over
to
you
for
questions.
A
Questions
then
of
either
melissa
or
city
manager
or
in
general
counsel.
Oh,
I
see
a
council
member
bolin.
I
think
you
had
had
your
hand
up.
I
apologize
for
that
before.
B
Yeah
I'd
like
to
make
a
motion
to
approve
all
alternate
motion
number
two.
A
As
presented,
okay
is
there
before
I
we
go
into
discussion.
Is
there
a
second
to
that
motion?
A
second
second
by
council
member
emic,
a
discussion?
I
see
council
member
crable,
so
we
have
a
motion
and
a
second
to
approve
by
council
member
alternative
motion.
Number
two:
is
that
correct
donna?
Yes,
okay,
thank
you
discussion
on
this.
D
Just
I
just
want
to
make
sure
which
one
is
alternative
motion
number
two.
A
It's
a
the
ordinance
be
adopted
as
presented
with
the
inclusion
of
section
one
one:
zero
three
point:
five
point:
one
of
the
international
fighter
code
requiring
installation
sprinkler
systems
in
group,
a
two
occupancies
where
alcoholic
beverages
are
consumed
and
having
occupancy
load
of
300
persons
or
more
by
january,
1st
2024.
Is
that
correct?
B
D
It
does,
but
so
we're
in
discussion
at
this
point
right
correct,
go
ahead.
Okay!
Well,
I
just
want
to
say
that
I'm
going
to
be
voting
no
to
this,
because
that's
going
to
put
a
significant
financial
burden
on
some
of
these
organizations.
D
We're
talking
about
fraternal
organizations
like
knights
of
columbus
and
the
vfw,
and
you
know
possibly
the
moose
and
stuff-
and
you
know
a
lot
of
these
organizations
we're
going
to
be
asking
them
to
effectively
have
to
come
up
with
installation
of
sprinkler
systems,
yeah
we're
going
to
give
them
three
years,
but
we're
talking
you
know
somewhere
between
30
and
70
thousand
dollars.
D
I
got
a
bid
five
years
ago
to
install
a
sprinkler
system
in
a
9
000
square
foot
building
and
that
bid
was
for
seventy
thousand
dollars
five
years
ago.
So
I
realized
that
we're
doing
this
for
public
safety
and
I
get
that
but
there's
I
don't
know
a
better
solution
right
now,
but
that's
a
burden
that
I
don't
think
a
lot
of
these
organizations
are
going
to
be
able
to
deal
with,
and
especially
as
they're
non-profit
organizations
that
do
good
works
in
the
in
the
city.
D
You
know
I'd
like
to
see
us
come
up
with
a
different
plan
before
we
impose
that
burden
on
them,
of
course,
sharing
or
something
else,
but
this
is
going
to
be
painful
for
them
in
a
very
real
and
serious
way.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you
very
much.
Oliver
and
matthew
I'm
going
to
go.
I
have
two
people's
hands
up.
I'm
going
to
go
to.
I
don't
know
what
order
it
was,
but
I'm
going
to
go
to
the
maker
of
the
motion.
Council
member
bolan.
You
have
your
hand
up,
go
ahead.
B
Yeah
I
just
in
the
package
what
made
me
what
made
me
make.
This
motion
was
that
in
the
packet,
apparently,
there
are
tax
credits
available
for
these
businesses
with
a
large
percentage.
If
you
do
it
in
the
first
or
second
year,
and
the
percentage
goes
down
as
time
goes
down
and
when
I
think
about
owning
a
home-
and
I
know
that
a
roof
only
lasts
20
years,
I'm
going
to
start
setting
money
aside
for
large
maintenance
costs.
B
So
I
think
that
it's
appropriate
to
to
have
a
company
do
that
in
a
in
an
establishment
that
has
300
people,
drinking
alcohol
and
a
fire
starts.
T
Thank
you.
Three
things
I
wanted
to
address
first
would
be
the
the
amendment
with
regard
to
sprinklers.
I
have
to
agree
with
older
person,
older
woman
bowling
and,
and
you
know
we
had
a.
T
From
our
fire
chief
outlining
the
the
the
health
ben
safety
benefits
to
having
a
sprinkler
system
in
these
establishments,
and-
and
you
know,
we
also,
I
think,
consider
the
fact
that
you
know
we
do
have
establishments,
as
was
discussed
at
the
last
meeting,
that
have
installed
sprinkler
systems.
T
So
there's
a
bit
of
fairness
there
for
those
that
that
don't
have
it
and-
and
I
think,
giving
people
giving
businesses
three
years
to
comply,
is
and
and
the
ability
to
grants
and
and
and
that
type
of
thing
I
think
that's
something
that
that
we
should
do
for
safety
reasons.
Secondly,
melissa.
I
appreciate
you
and
answering
the
questions
for
me
that
I
had
on
both
the
general
neutral
single
occupancy
bathrooms,
as
well
as
the
energy
conservation
code.
T
I'm
not
quite
sure,
I
understand
so,
if
you
could,
as
for
gender
neutral
single
occupancy
bathrooms,
public
accommodations
restaurants
bars
whatever
you
know,
we
do
have
a
state
state
law
that
that
requires
single
occupancy
restrooms
to
be
identified
as
all
gender
and
designated
for
use
by
no
more
than
one
person
at
a
time
and-
and
so
with
that
being
said,
how
is
that
going
to
be
enforced
or
how
is
that
being
enforced
in
bloomington
and
does
the
the
revised
code
plumbing
code
impact
that
melissa.
U
V
Any
years
now,
yes,
thank
you.
Okay,
in
terms
of
enforcement
for
the
the
gender
neutral
signage
as
a
matter
of
practice,
we
would
look
for
accessibility,
signage
during
our
final
inspections,
for
both
new
construction
and
renovations.
V
So
we
would
not
retroactively,
go
in
and
enforce
this,
this
additional
signage
requirement
on
the
existing
businesses.
If
we're
not,
if
we
don't
have
another
reason
to
be
in
there
to
look
at
it,
I
guess
so
we
so
we
do
not
enforce
retroactively.
V
We
would
look
it
as
a
as
a
part
of
any
final
inspection
for
for
new
building
permits.
Okay,
could
you
repeat
your
second
question
there,
sir.
T
I
I
mean
yeah.
The
second
question
would
be
on
the
international
energy
conservation
code
and
and
it
it,
the
the
2021
code,
has
a
lot
of
additions
with
regard
to
making
things
more
green,
basically,
and
in
looking
at
at
the
at
the
state
one
of
the
state
websites.
That
indicates
that
the
latest
published
edition
of
that
code
would
apply,
and
so
I'm
wondering
once
the
2021
code
is
published,
will
that
in
essence,
under
under
illinois
law
then
apply
to
to
bloomington
to
enforce.
K
V
Surely
that
is
yes
yeah,
I
guess
the
short
answer
is
yes,
it
would,
I
guess
a
little
bit
of
a
longer
answer
is.
Is
I
don't
know
that
the
state
necessarily
drops
it
from
day,
one
from
publication?
Either
they
often
perform
their
own
tweaks
to
the
code
as
well.
It
actually
provides
for
the
modifications
that
illinois
does
to
the
code
in
the
past
list.
A
Great
thank
you.
Thank
you
we're
well
over
time,
but
if
these
are
quick,
I'm
gonna
I'll
go
with
them.
I
may
need
to
ask
for
an
extension,
councilmember,
emig
and
then
matthew.
W
Yes,
I'll
be
quick.
I
just
want
to
second
the
comments
made
by
my
my
colleagues,
councilwoman
bolin
and
council
member
matthew,
not
matthew,
I'm
sorry,
craybill
you're,
all
in
front
of
me
on
zoom
and-
and
I
was
just
really
heartened
by
chief
moore's
argument.
W
I
understand
that
this
is
challenging
for
businesses,
but
we
have,
it
does
seem
as
if
there
are
mechanisms
for
offsetting
expenses
and
in
the
end
it
this
is
so
proven
to
be
an
enormously
successful
way
of
preventing
death
and
and
mayhem
when
these
fires
can
get
out
of
control
that
I
I
really
appreciate
that
we're
trying
to
to
see
a
way
towards
creating
a
system
that
that
can
help
our
community
and
I
think,
passing
this
is
the
impetus
to
do
that.
Thank
you.
D
Thank
you
mayor.
I
just
wanted
to
point
out
that
grants
are
only
as
good
as
the
funding
mechanism
behind
the
grants
and,
if
you
actually
win
a
grant
and
that
you
know,
tax
credits
are
much
the
same
thing
that
they
they
require
a
significant
amount
of
money
put
up
front
before
the
tax
credit
can
ever
be.
You
know,
used
or
utilized.
D
You
know
when
it
comes
to
budgeting.
Any
good
business
would
do
so
for
expenses
that
they
knew
about
such
as
a
roof.
But
you
know
these
businesses.
Why
would
they
have
ever
budgeted
for
something
that
they
didn't
actually
know
was
gonna
happen?
So
you
know
our
own,
our
own
planning
group.
Our
commission
actually
voted
to
not
put
this
in
there
and
I'm
not
arguing
the
safety
issues
of
any
of
this.
D
I
I
completely
agree
that
you
know
that
there
are
benefits
to
this,
but
there
are
significant
hardships
to
this
as
well,
and
I
just
I
hate
to
see
him
downplayed
like
this.
So
thank
you.
Thank
you.
Member.
M
M
Right
and
if
I'm
and
I
could
be
wrong
here,
but
if,
if
this
fails
alternative
motion,
one
is
basically
like
a
you
gotta
catch
up
and
get
those
sprinklers
installed
right.
D
Recommended
motion
would
actually
be
that
this
section's
left
out,
though
right.
M
A
Thank
you,
okay,
thank
you
at
this
point.
Madame
brooke,
would
you
call
the
role
on
the
motion
that
has
been
made
that
was
made
by
a
council
member
bowling
and
seconded
by
council
member
emig.
T
S
S
T
A
Yes,
thank
you
very
much
motion
carries
and
thank
you.
Everyone
for
your
input
and
work
on
this.
We're
going
to
move
to
item.
Excuse
me:
9b
consideration
and
action
on
resolutions
commit
financial
support
and
administration
of
funds
to
construct
the
constitution,
trail
southeast
extension
from
lafayette
street
to
hamilton
road
project,
and
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
turn
this
over
to
our
city
manager.
Who,
I
think,
will
turn
that
over
to
our
city
engineer.
F
Thank
you
mayor
and
council.
This
actually
is
pretty
exciting,
where
it
combines
two
major
projects
that
are
a
part
of
the
master
bicycle
plan
that
we've
got
in
the
community
and
kevin.
I
see
you
give
me
a
thumbs
up
if
I'm
going
to
you
or
am
I
going
to
craig
all
right,
I'm
going
to
go
to
public
works
director,
kevin
kelsey,
kevin.
X
Thank
you
mayor
and
council,
like
mr
gleason
said,
we're
very
excited.
X
This
is
a
tremendous
opportunity
that
you
know
the
the
constitution,
trail
master
plans
and
the
bike
master
plan
all
point
to
this
as
a
a
a
great
opportunity
to
be
able
to
connect
up
to
a
project
that
we're
going
to
be
doing
with
the
hamilton
bund
of
commerce,
and
so
I
am
excited
tonight
to
introduce
to
you
our
new
city,
engineer,
who's
been
on
the
job
for
several
months
now,
but
craig
shonkweiler
has
done
a
tremendous
amount
of
work
kind
of
putting
together
the
the
background
information
here
and
this
opportunity
for
this
itep
grant,
and
so
he's
going
to
be
doing
the
presentation.
X
I'm
going
to
get
it
going
here
for
him
and
let's
share
the
screen
and
then
we'll
get
this
presentation
going.
Y
Good
evening,
as
kevin
mentioned,
we're
looking
to
apply
for
what's
called
an
itep
grant
for
the
extension
of
the
constitution
trail
from
lafayette
street
to
hamilton.
Y
Road,
so
what
is
it?
Itep
is
an
illinois,
transportation
enhancement
program
grant
that
is
minister
administered
by
the
illinois
department
of
transportation.
It
basically
provides
alternative
sources
of
funding
for
walking,
biking
and
trail
projects.
The
call
for
proposals
went
out
in
august
21st
and
it's
due
november,
2nd
of
this
year.
Itep
is
a
reimbursable
grant
program,
which
means
that
the
city
would
front
the
money
for
the
project
and
then
the
reimbursement
would
be
sought
from
the
dod.
Y
Itep
is
a
competitive
type
of
grant
where
there
is
an
application
score
that
is
determined
based
upon
merits
later
I'll
show
you
the
estimated
score
that
city
staff
has
developed
it
basically,
there's
a
sliding
scale
that
accounts
for
the
community
size,
the
property
tax
base
and
the
median
income.
Y
The
project
that
we're
looking
to
apply
for
is
the
extension
of
the
constitution
trail.
It
runs
from
lafayette
street
down
along
easy
street
on
a
city
previously
city
purchase
right
away
under
veterans,
parkway,
paralleling
the
railroad
track
down
to
bond
street
and
then
heads
due
south
to
hamilton
road
upon
completion.
Y
Y
This
project
would
connect
downtown
bloomington
to
areas
in
the
southeast
portion
of
the
city,
particularly
the
hilltop
mobile
home
park
and
the
commercial
areas
to
the
east.
When
hamilton
road
extension
is
built
of
note,
there
are
no
pedestrian
or
bicycle
facilities
in
that
region,
so
veterans
parkway
certainly
serves
as
a
barrier
for
folks
to
head
south
or
north
through
that
area.
Y
Y
Upon
completion,
as
mr
gleason
had
noted
that
this
project
would
address
two
high-priority
projects
that
were
listed
within
the
bicycle
master
plan
of
node.
Those
are
projects
that
have
been
vetted
out
previously,
through
updates
in
the
master
plan
through
public
involvement.
Y
Within
that
master
plan,
the
section
from
bond
down
the
hamilton
was
indicated
to
have
paved
shoulders.
We
are
actually
looking
at
a
separated
facility.
I'll
show
you
folks
pictures
of
that
we
fill
a
separated
facility,
would
probably
be
best
with
the
industrial
traffic
in
that
area
and
use
of
available
space.
Y
This
is
an
overall
view
of
where
the
project
location
is.
You
can
see
it
here
in
the
bubble,
as
we
can
tell
it,
it
connects
up
a
gap
piece
and
helps
folks
get
under
veterans.
Parkway.
Y
Y
Y
These
tracks
account
for
about
22
000
population,
with
a
medium
household
income
of
about
40
to
90
thousand
dollars,
depending.
H
Y
The
track
I'll
show
you
some
pictures
here
we're
looking
at
lafayette.
All
these
pictures
will
be
facing
south,
so
you
can.
We
can
kind
of
follow
through
where
the
path
would
be.
The
city
has
right
away
here
to
the
right
along
the
substation
right
right
in
this
grass
area.
Here
this
would
be
where
the
trail
was
would
be
planned
to
be
kind
of
snaking.
Through
this
maze
of
poles.
We
do
feel
that
it
can
fit
through
there
safely
and
with
with
some
modifications
to
a
few
guy
wires.
Y
Y
Here's
another
view
of
that
that
span
this
this
project
would
give
us
an
opportunity
to
clean
up
this
area
to
provide
safe
passage
for
folks.
So
now
we're
on
the
other
side
of
veterans
parkway.
This
is
within
city
right-of-way.
Y
Here
the
railroad
is
on
the
other
side
of
the
brush
line
here,
so
the
path
would
come
along
right
along
through
here
now
we
would
head
due
south
with
bond
avenue,
bun
street
I
mean,
and
the
path
at
this
location
with
this
house,
which
is
in
within
the
county,
it's
not
annexed
within
the
city
would
have
to
be
studied.
There's
a
possibility.
The
path
could
go
into
the
front
of
the
home.
Y
Y
What
I
want
to
stress
to
counsel
is
we
that
there
will
be
a
phase
one
study,
and
at
that
time
we
would
know
what
exactly
would
be
recommended
as
far
as
the
path
routing,
but
we
do
have
some
challenges
at
this
location
on
the
south
side
of
that
previously
identified
home
now
we're
near
the
mobile
home
park.
So
the
path
would
be
in
this
kind
of
zone
here
just
to
the
west
of
the
power
poles.
Y
Y
Y
You
can
see
here
that
bun
street's
a
35
mile
an
hour,
speed
limit
and
then
here
is
hamilton
road
now
hamilton
road.
The
plan
would
be
to
reconstruct
hamilton
and
bun
and
bun
intersection
with
about
440
foot
reconstruction
on
the
north
leg,
abundant
hamilton
and
then
provide
basically
the
platform
for
this
path
to
sit
within
that
zone.
Y
So,
basically,
that's
all.
I
have
turn
it
over
to
questions.
A
Questions
from
council
members,
let
me
see:
okay,
whoops
first,
one
start
well
they're
just
listed
in
the
order
that
I
have
them:
council,
member,
bolin,
crabill
and
matthew
donna.
B
Y
So
what
we
do
is
we
apply
for
the
grant.
If
we
are
selected,
then
we
would
enter
into
a
joint
agreement
with
the
dot
at
that
point.
At
that
point,
the
funding
is
locked
in
the
reimbursement.
Part
comes
where
the
city
would
have
to
front
the
money,
and
then
we
would.
We
would
ask
for
reimbursement
as
we
go
along
as
our
expenses
are
occurred,.
B
Okay,
and
could
you
explain
how
that
number
58
affects
the
eligibility
for
the
grant.
Y
So
the
the
local
match
is
depending
upon
dependent
upon
that
number.
Basically,
so
the
higher
that
score,
it's
possible
that
the
local
match
gets
reduced
down,
even
when
we
make
our
application
we're
assuming
worst
case
at
20
of
eligible
items.
Some
items
are
not
eligible
or
they
may
be
determined
to
be
not
eligible
through
the
grant
application
process,
but
we're
at
this
point,
locking
in
on
the
20.
Y
B
Okay,
that
sounds
good.
I
did
have
other
questions,
but
after
you
explained
with
all
those
pictures,
I
no
longer
have
those
questions.
So
thank
you.
A
Thank
thank
you.
Thanks
donna,
councilman,
craimville
and
matthew.
T
Yeah,
thank
you,
a
good
presentation.
I
actually
watched
the
transportation
commission
then
same
presentation.
I'm
gonna
vote
yes
for
this,
but
I
do
have
a
concern
about
the
cost.
I
know
in
the
pack
of
materials
our
local
match
could
be
up
to.
I
think
342
000
and
when
we're
talking
about
the
impacts
of
covid
and
we're
not
quite
sure
what
they
are,
you
know
I
I
think
we
need
to
consider
that,
but
I
I
had
emailed
it
my
question
to
tim
and
billy
had
a
really
good
response.
T
You
know
once
the
state
approves
this
we'll
we'll
get
our
final
number
on
what
the
local
match
will
be
and
then
we'll
have
an
opportunity
to
approve
it,
and
we
can
determine
at
that
point
what
our
financial
position
is
then
so,
based
on
that
I'll
I'll
be
voting
in
favor
of
it.
A
Thank
you,
jeff
that
sounded
like
very
conservative.
I
just
had
to
be
silly
councilmember,
matthew.
D
Well,
actually,
jeff
just
accidentally
answered
my
question,
so
thanks
jeff,
you
know
I
was
going
to
ask
for
clarification
on
the
process
and
it
sounds
like
what
I
just
heard
was
we
apply
now
if
we
get
accepted,
then
we
and
everybody
comes
back
to
us
and
says
here's
the
rate
we're
going
to
be
funded
at
here's,
what
our
actual
costs
as
the
city
of
bloomington
look
like
they
would
be.
What
do
you
want
to
do
at
that
point?
D
That's
what
I
think
I
just
heard
so
yeah
and
I
I
I
go
down
bun
all
the
time
to
get
to
bloomington
meets
down
there
and
there
already
are
a
significant
number
of
bicyclists
that
that
use
bun
to
get
out
into
the
countryside
south
of
town.
D
It's
one
of
the
few
routes
to
get
outside
of
the
veterans,
parkway,
loop
and
and
you're
right
about
the
the
the
cement
trucks
and
recycling
trucks
and
everything
else
that
use
that
stretch.
So
I'm
not
sure
that
I
would
be
riding
on
bun
street
right
now,
but
you
know
bless
those
intrepid
bicycles
who
are
willing
to
do
it
right
now.
So
I
I'm
very
happy
about
the
fact
that
we're
talking
about
a
path,
that's
away
from
the
road
that
would
be
safer
for
everybody.
D
So
thank
you
for
putting
this
together
and
thanks
for
the
the
pictures
clarifying
where
things
were
going,
because
you
know
like
donna
I
was.
I
was
having
a
hard
time
visualizing
how
we
were
going
to
get
from
easy
street.
You
know
over
to
the
bun
street
area
and
your
presentation
answered
that
great.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you
we're
well
out
of
time,
but
council
member
bolin,
you
have
a
your
hand
up.
I'm
gonna
go
to
you
go
ahead:
oh
donny,
you're,
muted!
I'm
sorry!
There's.
B
One
more
positive
thing
I
have
to
say,
and
that
is
that
there
is
a
constitutional
trail
that
ends
right
there
at
bond.
It's
like
the
constitution
trail
to
nowhere,
so
be
so
hooking
up
with
this
new
section,
you
could
actually
at
least
make
a
loop
from
somewhere.
So
I'm
I'm
happy
with
that.
B
Oh
and
I
also
saw
the
public
art
on
the
graffiti
on
the
on
the
veteran's
parkway
thing.
A
J
S
K
A
Yes,
thank
you
very
much
motion
care,
no
names
to
announce
madam
nays,
to
announce
madam
clerk,
we're
going
to
go
to
item
9c
and
there's
no
recommendation
here,
but
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
turn
this
over
to
council.
Excuse
me
to
city
manager,
gleason,
and
then
we
have
some
a
brief
presentation
and
a
brief
council
questions.
If
necessary,
tim.
F
Thank
you,
mayor
council.
There
are
no
recommended
updates
to
the
emergency
ordinance.
A
Okay,
seeing
none
mr
gleason,
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
your
city,
manager's
discussion.
Thank
you.
F
F
One
of
the
other
items
that
I
was
going
to
talk
about
is
census
is
going
through
october.
31St,
please
get
out
there
and
complete
the
census.
It
is
so
critical
for
for
our
community
we're
also
messaging
what
the
halloween
events
are.
You
can
find
that
website.
I
think
we've
had
a
couple
of
press
releases
for
the
things
that
the
city
is
affiliated
with
throughout
the
community.
F
Just
ask
and
think
that
the
parents
get
this
already,
but
cannot
stress
enough
how
how
important
it
is
to
socially
distance
and
be
safe.
If
you
do
choose
to
go
out
and
trick
or
treat
all
right,
the
first
slide.
We
have
five
new
hires
to
the
community.
F
We
have
police
officer,
ronald
fryman,
another
police
officer,
william
shelton.
We
have
a
laborer
matthew
johnson.
We
have
greg
cook
operations,
manager
for
public
works,
that
replaced
ben
ryver
and
for
the
life
of
me
I
cannot
see
the
last
one.
Sherry
pride
is
somebody
that
we
hired
at
finance.
F
I
think
she's
actually
actually
working
at
the
hub
and
good
addition
to
the
city
so
welcome
to
the
city.
All
five
of
these
new
city
employees
and
then
the
other
slides
honestly,
I
think
I
covered
them
already.
We
have
downtown
farmers
market
that
runs
through
october
31st
as
well,
that
is
7
30
at
12
o'clock,
we're
down
the
home
stretch
for
that
and
given
covid.
I
think
we've
had
a
pretty
successful
farmers
market
for
this
season,
so
nice
job
to
all
the
participants
and
to
melissa
hahn
and
her
team.
A
Thank
you,
tim
and
actually
it
as
under
the
mayor's
remarks.
The
first
thing
I
just
wanted
to
say
is
to
give
a
a
great
thank
you,
and
we
do
it
from
time
to
time,
but
I
just
wanted
to
make
it
over.
Thank
you
to
our
city
manager,
melissa
hahn,
our
clerk
other
staff
members
for
all
the
fantastic
things
that
they
do
for
us
to
make
things
happen
on
a
daily
basis.
You
know,
I'm
gonna,
give
you
a
clap
round
of
applause.
A
Thank
you
all
so
much
you're
fantastic,
it's
so
much
easier
frankly
to
be
mayor
than
it
was
almost
eight
years
ago,
and
it's
it's
thanks
to
all
of
you
and
and
your
dedication
and
how
fantastic
all
of
you
are.
I
mean
there's
not
a
weak
link
in
the
the
chain.
So
thank
you.
I
also
just
want
to
the
only
other
thing
that
I
want
to
say
is
that
we
are
really
ticked
off
that
council
member
black
has
decided
to
have
his
own
damn
life.
A
I
mean
it's
like
when
my
kids
got
in
their
20s.
I
was
really
ticked
off
the
nerve
of
you,
and
but
he
is
he's
leaving
us,
don't
feel
guilty.
Scott
don't
feel
guilty,
but
we
did
set
up
through
friday
to
have
applications.
A
I
had
not
received
too
many
as
of
a
week
ago
and
given
the
press
release
that
nora
dukowitz
had
sent
out
and
the
follow-up
that
we've
had.
There
are
at
this
point
a
dozen
and
growing
numbers
of
people
that
are
responding.
I
am
trying
to
vet
them
as
I
get
them
and
talk
to
people
as
they
come
through.
A
My
intention
would
be
the
the
deadline.
Excuse
me
is
this
friday
for
a
formal
expression
of
interest,
I'm
touching
base
with
council
members
and
others
who
are
recommending
people,
and
I
I
would
like
to
have
a
recommendation
to
the
council
sometime
next
week,
but
I
that
I
don't
know
how
many
up
men,
you
know
people
I'll
need
to
vet
so
that
my
goal
is
next
week.
I
will
not
make
a
recommendation
any
later
than
two
weeks
from
today,
but
I'm
hoping
for
next
week.
That's
all
I
have
thank
you
all.
A
So
much
and
scott
we're
gonna
miss
you,
but
in
spite
of
the
fact
that
you,
you
insist
on
having
your
own
life
you're
welcome,
even
though
that's
obviously
a
warm,
you
know:
scratchy
fuzzy,
but
councilman
craig
bill
and
matthew.
I
see
your
hands
up,
others
that
want
to
give
all
dramatic
comments.
Please
feel
free,
but
I'm
gonna
start
with
councilmember
cradle
and
then
matthew,
because
that's
how
you're
listed
on
my
screen.
T
Yeah,
thank
you.
Thank
you
mayor.
I
wanted
to
shout
out
and
thank
as
always,
tim
billy,
melissa
hahn,
chief,
scott
and
and
jay
tesla
for
us
waller.
They
all
answered
questions
I
had
on
the
agenda,
so
that's
always
very
much
appreciated.
T
My
next
town
hall
is
going
to
be
thursday
october
22nd
at
six
o'clock.
The
zoom
invite
is
on
my
facebook,
page
jeff,
crable
bloomington
city
council.
You
can
also
email
me
at
jcrable
cityboom.org.
T
If
you
don't
use
facebook,
and
I
can
send
you
the
zoom
invite
one
I
just
want
to
quickly
comment
on
o'neill
pool,
so
I
know
the
cost
of
that
is
pretty
high
for
the
architects,
but
I
I
reviewed
the
letter
proposed
agreement
from
william
architects
and
and
we're
getting
a
lot
for
for
that
amount
of
money.
We've
got
peop.
We've
got
a
group,
that's
very
experienced
in
building
municipal
or
designing
municipal
pools.
T
T
You
know
the
west
side
of
bloomington
has
been
ignored
for
too
long,
and
you
know
one
of
the
things
that
when
I
was
running
you
know
one
of
the
things
that
people
said
to
me
when
I
talked
to
them
was
that
you
know,
even
though
we
live
on
the
east
side,
you
know
every
part
of
the
city
is
important
and
you
know
we
want
the
west
side
to
improve
and
if
the
west
side
improves,
we
all
improve
and
and
so
and
so
I
I'm
glad
that
we're
putting
forth
this
this
amount
of
investment
in
into
the
west
side
into
that
pool.
A
Thank
you,
jeff
amen,
brother,
that's
good!
At
this
point,
council
member
mill,
whoa,
it's
a
certain
ship
council
member,
milo,
lomboy,
bolan
and
painter
in
that
order.
C
Sorry
that
was
my
fault.
I
just
took
council
member
matthew's
hand
down.
A
Oh
okay,
councilmember,
milo
bolan
and
painter.
K
Well,
just
a
very
quick
question:
this
is
for
a
very
youthful
council
member
black
is
this:
is
this
your
last
meeting
or
or
next
one.
M
Good
question:
I
tendered
my
my
official
resignation
to
billy
who
didn't
want
to
take
the
letter
he
tried,
but.
K
M
K
A
A
Done
councilmember
bowling.
Sorry,
oh.
B
B
No,
no,
no,
I
mean,
I
know,
I
think
I
think
it
would
be
a
good
idea,
and
you
know
absolutely
I'm
not
that
scary
and
the
other
thing
I
would.
The
other
thing
I
like
to
say
is
that
I
recommend
that
people
get
their
flu
shot
because
nobody
wants
to
have
covert
and
flu
at
the
same
time.
So
they
are
free
and
you
can
just
walk
in
they're
free.
If
you
have
an
insurance
card,
you
can
submit
it.
B
A
S
Thank
you.
I
just
wanted
to
make
you
all
aware
that
I
put
triage
cards
in
all
of
the
council
members
mailboxes,
describing
briefly
what
the
triage
center
is.
It's
now
operating
full
steam
ahead,
and
it's
it's
a
great
thing
for
our
community,
especially
during
this
time
of
covid.
S
When
people
are
having
mental
health
issues,
they
have
worked
with
the
police,
providing
a
different
alternative
to
going
to
jail
when
people
are
having
breakdowns,
and
it's
it's
a
great
thing,
and
I
just
wanted
you
all
to
be
aware
of
how
our
sales
tax
dollars
are
at
work
for
mental
health
in
our
community.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you,
councilmember
painter,
that's
once
again
everybody's
seeing
great
things
that
we
all
need
to
be
aware
of
that
and
that's
and
thank
you
for
all
your
your
help
and
service
on
the
the
borders
you're
on,
but
thank
you
councilmember
painter.
Last
but
not
least,
as
I
could
see,
this
councilman
matthew.
D
Jamie
thanks
sorry,
it
was.
It
was
my
turn.
Apparently
though
I
was
I
was
to
say
in
regards
to
filling
scott's
seat.
I
think
what
you
were
trying
to
say
to
donna
is
that
you
wanted
to
set
the
hook
first
before
you
let
the
fish
get
away,
so
right
yeah.
No,
I
I.
What
I
wanted
to
say
is
I
wanted
to
give
a
shout
out
to
public
works
for
the
free
fall
bulk
pickup,
that's
happening
right
now.
D
It
started
last
week
got
a
bunch
of
compliments
from
the
folks
that
live
in
the
south
hill
neighborhood
about
how
fast
everything
went
this
week.
You
know
they
did
south
hill
and
I
think
they
did
so
dim
last
week
as
well,
and
then
this
week
is
dimmitts
grove
and
a
bunch
of
other
parts
around
the
city
as
well.
D
So
a
big
shout
out
to
those
crew,
just
a
reminder
that
you
know
take
a
look
at
the
map
on
the
city
website
and-
and
hopefully
you
haven't,
missed
your
opportunity
to
put
stuff
out
there
for
the
free
fall
pick
up
as
well,
and
then
the
other
thing
is
just
a
reminder
that
it's
the
census,
you
can
do
it
at
census2020.gov
and
it
took
like
five
minutes.
It
was
super
fast
to
log
on,
go
through
verify
who
lived
in
your
house
and
some
rough
ages.
It
did
not
ask
any
sensitive
questions.
D
It
was
super
fast
in
five
minutes
and
I
was
done
so
and
it
does
make
a
big
difference
to
schools.
It
does
make
a
big
difference
to
the
city
and
it
makes
a
big
difference
to
a
lot
of
the
non-profits
that
we
have
in
how
they
get
funding
allocated
from
both
the
state
and
the
federal
government.
So
please,
please,
please
take
five
minutes
for
the
rest
of
the
community
to
go
to
census2020.gov
and
fill
that
out.
That's
good!
Thank
you.
A
Alderman
matthew,
thank
you
so
much,
and
I
just
want
to
reiterate
that
absolutely
I
mean
it
matters
so
much
for
the
next
decade.
The
decisions
we
make
other
governmental
institutions
make
grant
funding
all
kinds
of
things
where
we
allocate
resources
for
schools
and
other
public
needs.
It's
just
absolutely
critical
to
know
where
people
are
and
it's
by
law,
anything
that
might
be,
even
if
you
think
it
might
be
sensitive.
It
cannot
be
released
on
an
individual
basis,
it's
against
the
law,
and
so
thank
you,
councilmember
matthew
for
for
demonstrating
and
reiterating
these
points.
A
At
this
juncture,
do
I
have
a
motion
to
adjourn
moved
by
customer
matthew,
second
by
council
member
bowling
with
her
fingers
like
floating.
Thank
you
so
much
all
the
favors
by
saying
hi.
