D
D
B
Hello,
poor
d
right,
yes,
okay,
I,
don't
think
I
have
to
do
this.
One.
B
A
Make
an
emotion
to
allow
trustee
Urban
to
join
the
meeting
remotely.
D
C
Thank
you,
and
just
for
the
record
she's
out
due
to
illness.
Yes,
trustee
Walsh.
B
Thank
you.
The
next
item
on
the
agenda
is
the
consent
agenda.
Is
there
a
motion
to
approve
the
consent
agenda.
B
Okay,
moved
by
trustee
Credo.
A
B
B
Yes,
moving
on
to
the
next
item
number
five
data
sharing
agreement
and
supplemental
business,
associate
agreement
between
the
city
of
Bloomington
Township
and
the
Illinois
Department
of
Human
Services
and
I'm,
going
to
turn
it
over
to
Township
supervisor
skillrude
for
introductory
remarks.
If
needed,.
H
This
is
something
I've
tried
for
in
the
past
and
and
we
were
denied-
and
it's
been
about
four
or
five
years
ago
and
I
tried
again
and
we're
successful
in
re.
Getting
this
agreement
put
in
place
now,
it'll
just
streamline
our
business
so
much
better
for
the
client.
The
client
won't
have
to
get
the
information
from
Department
of
Human
Services,
which
is
information
that
we
need
to
determine
eligibility.
H
G
You
Deb
and
I
I
would
like
to
ask
I
guess
why
did
they
deny
it
before
I
have
a
couple
I'll
just
give
them
all
out.
Okay,
sorry:
at.
H
That
time
they
weren't
giving
it
out
opening
it
up
to
anybody,
let
alone
Township
at
that
level,
local
government,
so
they
were
keeping
it
pretty
much
at
the
state.
Now
I,
don't
know
that
100
certain
but
I
know
other
townships.
That
did
not
have
it
as
well.
At
the
time
that
I
was
seeking
men.
G
H
We
know
that
a
lot
of
applicants
or
people
that
are
going
through
orientation
getting
the
packet
of
information,
there's
about
80
percent
that
do
not
complete
the
applications
as
much
as
we
try
now
what
we
do.
We
have
somebody
who
calls
them
continues
to.
Let
them
know
what
they
need
if
they're
close
to
getting
there
we'll
get
the
appointment,
but
it's
a
good
eighty
percent,
and
that
could
be
for
a
number
of
reasons.
Some
could
be
getting
jobs.
H
F
J
B
Yes,
next
item
on
the
agenda
is
a
bid
approval
for
request
for
proposal
for
Evergreen
memorial
cemetery
by
for
a
new
track,
loader
so
back
to
you,
Township
survive
discovered.
H
This
has
been
planned
with
the
cemetery
they're
in
need
of
this,
just
to
be
able
to
stay
on
track
and
get
the
like
headstones
righted
properly,
without
having
to
wait
for
equipment
to
come
in,
I
mean
there's
a
number
of
things.
I,
don't
know
all
of
those
things
that
they're
they're
in
need
of
it,
for
they
just
have
been.
They
have
it
in
the
budget
and
they've
planned
for
this
for
quite
some
time.
So
they
lost
one
piece
of
equipment:
I'm,
not
very
good.
With
my
equipment
names
either
I'm.
H
J
H
Did
approach
them
on
that
because
I
think
sharing
even
with
other
townships,
is
important.
I
think
they
looked
into
other
townships
and
there
wasn't
the
need
around
there.
I
do
not
know
if
they
looked
at
the
city
of
Bloomington.
C
B
You'd,
like
okay,
sure,
okay!
Well,
why
don't
we
then
move
on
to
reports
by
elected
officials,
Township
supervisor.
H
Okay,
I
know
that
there
have
been
discussion
about
the
higher
Reserve
in
the
general
Town
Fund
for
the
past
few
months
and
trustee
Ward
mentioned
it
last
month.
What
can
we
do
with
this
I'm?
Not
ready
to
I.
Don't
have
all
the
answers
in
terms
of
how
much
the
building
repair
and
maintenance
will
be.
They
did
not
get
the
numbers
to
me
in
time
for
this
board
packet.
H
I
do
anticipate
that
by
next
month,
I'll
be
able
to
prepare
an
answer
for
you
as
to
how
much
Reserve
I
think
we
could
potentially
move
in
a
direction
of
helping
the
clients-
or
you
know
the
community,
in
fact,
through
grants
and
Aid.
So
I
just
don't
have
that
number.
Yet
I
wanted
to
explain
again
just
so.
H
Everyone
remembers
that
the
funds
are
higher
due
to
an
influx
of
availability
of
federal
and
state
funds
during
covid,
which
meant
that
Township
could
not
participate
in
in
helping
the
general
assistance
clients
or
we
couldn't
help
serve
them
necessarily
at
that
time
they
didn't
qualify
and
we
also
had
very
low
work,
fare
expenses
because
we
shut
down
our
work,
Fair
programs
as
well.
H
What's
a
good
portion,
I,
don't
know,
there's
I
mean
there's
a
portion
of
that.
That's
going
to
be
used
for
the
building
maintenance,
which
is
was
it
was
intended
for.
H
We
do
have
the
parking
lot
completed
now,
but
now
there's
the
internal
and
exterior
building
issues
that
are
at
hand
that
still
need
to
be
worked
on.
So,
at
the
time
that
I
come
to
the
board
with
this,
I
will
also
be
coming
to
the
board
with
an
amended
budget,
and
then
it's
my
hope
that
it's
ready
next
month,
but
it
just
depends
on
how
far
it's
worth
you
know
what
they
provide
and
I
will
communicate
that
to
the
board.
G
So
they
understand
so
we're
talking
using
more
General
admitted
General
administrative
funds.
Is
that
right
or
am
I.
G
What
I
mean
General
General
Town
funds,
possibly
for
things
that
you
know
wouldn't
have
the
Restriction
of
of
the
general
Aid
fund.
H
At
this
time,
I
don't
have
an
answer.
Yet
what
we
talked
about
is
that
Township
can
provide
grants
and
Aid
to
other
agencies
that
are
serving
the
needs
in
a
way
that
we
wouldn't
be
duplicating
efforts,
we'd
be
supporting
them
and
that
will
probably
take
some
discussions
with
the
board
on
individual
basis
or
in
groups.
H
Maybe
a
committee
being
formed
to
determine
how
we
go
about
doing
that
if
there
is
extra
funds
and
I'll
present
at
the
time
what
our
existing
Grant
applications
or
grants
are
that
we
have
you
see
that
in
your
board
packet,
they
fall
under
under
certain
categories
under
grants
and
Aid.
Not
all
of
that
money
has
been
distributed
this
year
this
fiscal
year
yet
and.
G
H
Been
underutilized
because
people
haven't
provided
the
proof
that
was
needed
for
the
coven
right,
we
could
consider
modifying
that
to
some
degree,
but
we
are
under
law
with
gubernatorial
declaration
or
presidential
Declaration
of
of
a
disaster
or
a
pandemic
to
be
able
to
do
that.
I
don't
have
the
sighting
for
that
in
the
laws
and
duties,
but
I
can
get
that
for
you,
okay
and
then
we
can
just
see.
I
I
had
been
in
communication
with
our
attorney
to
think
out
of
the
box
and
I'm.
B
C
Trustee
so
I
was
able
to
look
up
the
purchase
that
trustee
Becker
was
referencing
on
September
12th,
you
approved
the
purchase
of
two
John
Deere
tractors
of
four
series
and
a
five
series.
One
had
like
a
snow
blower
attachment
and
the
other
one
a
mowing
attachment.
It
was
to
the
tune
of
199
000
with
a
trade-in
that
brought
it
down
for
I,
think
179..
So
that's
what
I
can
get
from
the
the
memo.
Whether
you
want
to
take
that
into
consideration.
C
There
was
also
in
June
consideration
that
you
approved
for
a
separate
purchase
of
John
Deere
tractor
as
well.
H
For
the
city
of
Bloomington
they're
not
going
to
be
able
to
use
gender
tractors,
that's
not
going
to
cut
it,
but
this
is
more
heavy
duty
for
burial
tombstones
that
get
knocked
over
things
like
that.
But
it's
your
your
call.
A
No
I
appreciate
it
ultimate
or
trustee
Becker's
concern
about
duplication,
that
what
I'm
hearing
is
that
this
is
actually
a
specialized
piece
of
equipment.
H
E
I
B
You,
okay,
so
back
to
reports
by
elected
officials
and
we're
going
to
go
with
trust,
Township,
Assessor,
good.
L
Evening
not
much
to
report
on
this
month,
except
for
the
assessments
have
been
turned
into
the
county.
We
made
adjustments
to
over
20
000
Assessments
in
the
city
of
Wilmington,
so
there's
going
to
be
a
slight
change
in
the
eav.
L
Most
of
the
assessments
increased
we
didn't
see.
Many
areas
with
decreases
attaches
the
school
district
report,
which
shows
the
AV
for
the
how
it's
broken
up
into
the
school
districts
within
this
city
and
the
exemptions
aren't
current
and
there
could
be
differences
in
the
assessment
amounts
to
at
this
time
as
we're
changing
things
around.
L
As
we
run
the
reports,
there's
going
to
be
difference
in
the
numbers,
we're
waiting
on
the
county
to
see
if
the
city
will
get
a
multiplier
because
of
the
adjustments
that
we
made,
we
haven't
had
a
a
multiplier
from
the
county
and
quite
a
few
years,
so
it'll
be
determined
on
what
they
see
on
our
numbers.
When
we
get
that
so
I'll
report
on
that,
when
it
happens,
any
questions.
D
B
H
D
B
Council
member
Urban
is
out
sick
tonight
and
she
has
requested
to
attend
remotely
due
to
illness,
which
is
allowable
by
code
and
can
I
have
a
motion
to
allow
council
member
Urban
to
participate
remotely.
So.
G
B
Okay,
move
by
councilman
graybillon
and
the
second
by
council
member
Bolin
Madam
clerk.
Could
you
please
call
the
rule.
B
Yes,
okay,
thank
you,
council,
member
Urban.
Are
you
there.
C
We
actually
did
not
have
anybody
register
for
public
comment
this
evening,
but
we
did
receive
one
email
earlier
today
that
was
shared
by
Council.
Actually
I
think
it
came
in
the
form
of
two
but
from
the
same
person,
and
that
was
from
Dave
kobus.
B
Okay,
thank
you.
I
would
read
my
statement
just
for
fun,
but
I
guess
we
can
pass
on
that.
B
C
All
right
and
so
we're
just
congratulating
Carla
Pohl
for
the
appointment
to
the
John
M
Scott
Healthcare,
commission
Carla
is
not
with
us
this
evening,
but
congratulations
thanks
for
your
service.
All.
B
B
B
B
Okay,
second
by
council
member.
B
Okay,
Kim
she's,
with
the
trustees
we're
talking
about
trustees
earlier,
okay,
oh,
we
do
have
a
link
right.
Okay
and
we
do
need-
is
councilmember
urban
on
the
link
as
well.
Yes,.
C
And
she's
able
to
vote
remotely.
F
Thank
you
and
I
apologize
I
meant
to
send
an
email
with
a
question
on
this
earlier
today
and
the
day
ran
away
from
me.
I
just
want
to,
and
I
don't
see
anything
in
here,
except
that
they
had
checked
the
box
in
the
application
regarding
gaming
machines.
Is
there
anything
in
this
license
for
this?
This
request
that
would
allow
gaming
machines
in
this
location.
C
So
we
we
do
have
a
video
gaming
wait
list
in
the
sense
of
the
list.
It's
a
weight.
There's
not
one!
That's
available!
I
didn't
sit
for
the
Liquor
Commission,
so
the
mayor
might
be
able
to
speak
to
that
a
little
bit
more.
But
in
order
to
receive
gaming
they
would
have
to
submit
an
application
and
be
wait
listed
at
which
point
a
license
would
have
to
come
available.
B
Okay,
the
next
item
on
the
agenda
is
item
8A,
a
presentation
on
recommended
City
programs
to
distribute
American
Rescue
plan
act;
funding
within
approved
city
council
categories
of
spending
and
arpa
allowances,
as
requested
by
the
economic
and
Community
Development
Department,
and
the
administration
department
and
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
city
manager.
Gleason
for
introductory
remarks,.
M
Thank
you,
Baron
Council,
as
a
community
you
may
recall,
Council
approved
buckets,
is
how
I
described
it
for
how
the
city
would
apply
and
use
under
the
federal
guidelines,
treasury
guidelines,
of
course,
but
how
we
would
use
the
ARP
funds.
There
were
two
buckets
2.2
million
dollars
each
for
socioeconomic
and
for
economic
development
staff
was
directed
to
come
up
with
sort
of
a
template,
a
guideline,
something
that
anybody
that
might
be
interested
in
applying
for
these
funds,
the
pathway
to
be
approved
or
denied.
M
This
is
actually
taking
a
fair
amount
of
staff
effort
and
tonight
is
a
presentation.
That's
going
to
be
led
by
Melissa
Hahn,
our
director
of
economic
Community,
Development
and
then
also
a
deputy
city
manager,
Billy
tyus,
it's
about
11
or
12
slides,
and
then
this
is
going
to
be
two-part.
We
found
that
some
of
this
aligns
with
existing
programs
and
does
not
need
Council
approval,
but
we
do
have
portions
of
this.
That
Council
will
have
to
act
on
this,
and
our
plan
is
to
bring
that
back
in
front
of
council.
M
N
Thank
you,
Tim.
Thank
you,
mayor
and
council
members
really
quickly
and
more
so
for
for
public
information.
The
city
is
receiving
or
has
received
a
rounded
number
of
13.4
million
dollars
in
funding
as
part
of
the
American
Rescue
plan
act,
Philip,
you'll,
move
to
the
first
side.
Please
slide.
Please.
N
N
Over
time
there
have
been
commitments
made
from
each
of
those
buckets
and
so
Phil.
If
you'll
go
to
the
next
slide,
please
of
the
allocated
amounts.
Those
are
the
amounts
that
remain
in
each
category.
N
There
have
been
items
as
I
said
that
have
come
before
you
for
consideration
and
approval
to
fund
much
needed
projects.
As
an
example
in
the
infrastructure
category,
we
approved
Locus
Colton
design
and
work
on
the
hydraulic
modeling
for
the
E
Street
Basin,
the
Locust
Colton
design
was
750
000
and
the
hydraulic
modeling
was
roughly
1.1
million
dollars
under
the
economic
development
category.
N
There
was
a
commitment
for
the
750
000
for
the
streetscape
work
approved
here
recently
and
then
under
the
socioeconomic
categories,
there
was
an
expenditure
or
commitment
for
150
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
dollars
for
the
car
on
mobile
health
unit.
Again
all
items
that
came
before
you
and
all
that
fit
Within
These
categories,
and
so
those
are
the
amounts
that
are
remaining
in
each
category.
N
Next
slide,
please
Phil,
as
staff
began
working
on
possible
programs.
You
had
your
retreat
here
recently
and
our
thought
was
to
pause
and
to
look
at.
N
For
example,
as
you
can
see
you
wanted,
you
want
to
revitalize
older
communities,
specifically,
among
others,
the
downtown,
the
West
End
and
the
warehouse
district
and
Market
Street
among
others
under
Economic
Development.
You
can
see
the
list
of
of
potential
items
that
you
want
to
impact
or
that
you
want
to
do
but
specific
to
some
of
what
you'll
hear
tonight.
We
believe
that
we're
able
to
impact
the
bolded
areas
when
you
talk
about
business
expansion
and
retention
or
ADA
compliance
and
and
making
buildings
more
ADA
Compliant.
N
Some
of
the
things
that
we're
talking
about
tonight
we
feel
like
can,
if
approved,
can
help
to
impact
those
areas
as
well,
and
obviously
housing
has
been
a
topic
of
discussion
throughout
the
community,
but
also
with
you
amongst
your
priorities,
and
so
they
wanted
to
see
if
there
was
a
way
to
throughout,
through
this
funding
to
impact
housing
as
well,
and
so
again,
as
I
said
earlier,
the
feds
have
Pages
up
on
pages
of
rules
and
everything
that
we're
proposing
tonight
we
we've
looked
at
those
rules
and
they
fit
within
the
rules,
as
as
the
feds
have
said
they
have
to,
and
so
we're
confident
that
the
things
that
we're
proposing
tonight
are
are
eligible.
N
Obviously,
they're
rules
that
we
have
to
follow
as
part
of
implementing,
and
we
understand
that
and
councilmember
Bolin
is
smiling
at
me
and
I
get
it,
but
we
we've
taken
a
look
and
we're
confident
that
they
fit
within
the
rules
as
as
proposed,
and
so
with
that
I
will
turn
things
over
to
Melissa
Han,
our
director
of
Economic
and
Community
Development.
She
can
start
to
walk
through
some
of
the
things
that
are
being
proposed
in
terms
of
programs
for
the
expenditures
Melissa.
O
Thank
you
and
good
evening,
mayor
council,
city
manager
and
thank
you
to
Deputy
city
manager
tyus,
as
he
mentioned,
you
know,
looking
at
the
programs
and
guidance
from
the
treasury
next
slide,
please
we
were
looking
at.
How
can
we,
you
know
best
impact
our
business
community,
that
retention
and
expansion
piece,
especially
for
small
businesses?
That's
one
thing
that
has
been
highlighted.
O
You
know
throughout
the
guidance
so
looking
at
doing
some
Rehabilitation
grants
up
to
a
predetermined
amount
for
small
businesses
and
they
would
have
to
meet
the
definition
of
a
small
business
per
section.
Three.
The
small
business
act
once
again
coming
out
of
that
treasury
guidance.
We
would
be
looking
at
doing
some
qualifying
projects
to
buildings
such
as
storefront
accessibility,
facade
improvements,
Building,
Code,
Compliance.
You
know
with
some
of
our
updates
that
we
did
with
the
building
code.
O
There
were,
you
know,
some
impacted
for
for
fire
safety
and
suppression,
so
that
would
fall
within
that
signage
awning
really
looking
at.
How
can
we
have
Assist?
You
know
sustained
impact
and
allowing
those
businesses
to
make
those
upgrades
to
their
buildings.
We
felt
would
be
a
great
way
to
do
that
and
allowing
them.
You
know
the
opportunity
to
use
those
funds
that
that
maybe
they
were
thinking
they
were
going
to
have
to
use
for
those
type
of
expenditures
and
keep
that
within
their
their
operating
next
slide.
O
Please
and
so
we'd
be
looking
at
as
I
said,
small
business
grants
for
those
disproportionately
impacted
once
again
that
is
outlined
in
the
guidance
and
they
have
to
fall
within
a
qualified
census
tract
those
are
defined
by
Hud.
So
these
would
be
the
qualified
census
tracts
for
Bloomington.
O
As
you
can
see,
some
of
it
is
up
there
in
in
normal,
but
for
the
qualified
census
tracts
they
have
to
it's
50
with
income
below
60
of
area
meeting
income,
and
so
that
would
be
areas
covered,
downtown,
Warehouse
districts
and
part
of
the
West
side
that
would
qualify
for
those
Rehabilitation
grants.
So
next
slide.
Please.
O
For
the
socioeconomic
assistance,
we
are
looking
at
doing
grants
to
non-profit
local
non-profit
organizations,
grants
of
up
to
a
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
serving
Bloomington
residents,
and
those
non-profits
would
be
those
serving
households
with
annual
incomes
at
or
below
the
300
percent
of
the
federal
poverty
guideline
and
once
again,
that's
coming
from
the
treasury
guidance,
and
these
would
be
for
needs
that
have
been
identified
within
the
Consolidated
plan
and
Community
Health
survey
and
we'll
get
into
those
services
in
just
a
minute.
O
O
Please
so
some
of
the
assistance
types
of
assistance,
as
outlined
in
the
Consolidated
plan,
as
well
as
the
community
health
survey,
would
be
any
homeless,
Services
Workforce,
Development,
job
training,
senior
Youth
and
Child
Care
Services
Disability
Services
food
services,
active
Living,
Services,
Health,
Services
focused
on
disparities
in
mental
health.
We
would
offer
an
application
process
very
similar
to
what
we
do
currently
for
the
John
M
Scott
commission
and
cdbg
public
service
programs.
So
we
would
just
open
up
that
type
of
application
allowing
for
those
local
non-profits
to
apply
online
through
that
process.
N
Thank
you
Phil
next
slide,
please,
and
so
a
third
program
that
we've
talked
about
under
the
socioeconomic
category
was
affordable,
housing,
preservation
and
development,
specifically
the
thought
being
that
we
would
provide
a
grant
program
for
Homes
located
on
the
west
end
of
our
community,
where
we
would
provide
grants
through
a
lottery
system
and
that
that
preliminarily
that's
the
way
we
figured
we
would
handle
it
for
homes.
On
the
west
end,
we
would
Define
specifically
what
West
End
meant.
We
know
that
we'd
have
to
establish
boundaries
where
we
would.
N
We
would
fund
certain
things
to
improve
the
housing
stock
in
that
part
of
our
community,
where
perhaps
we
do
grants
of
between
20
and
40
000
as
an
example
to
fund
certain
Services.
N
This
is
a
need
that
has
been
outlined
in
the
Consolidated
plan.
Investing
in
housing
and
investing
in
the
west
end
of
our
community
has
also
been
listed
as
a
priority
for
you
as
a
council
as
well.
Next
slide,
please
Phil,
so
the
thought
being
possible
eligible
items
could
include
improvements
to
homes,
for
accessibility,
improving
accessibility
in
and
out
of
homes.
You
know
there
are
a
lot
of
homes
that
are
older
in
that
part
of
our
community.
N
That
need
perhaps
need
a
roof
or
porches
or
stairs
and
steps
repaired
or-
and
you
can
read
the
rest
of
them-
people
don't
think
about
things
like
exterior
improvements
for
like
painting
a
house
makes
it
look
better.
There
are
people
who
perhaps
can't
afford
that
that
type
of
work,
and
so
perhaps
we
we
fund,
painting
or
trim
or
fascia
work
or
those
kinds
of
things.
N
This
isn't
an
all
exhaustive
list,
but
it's
a
list
of
things
that
we
could
perhaps
fund
through
this
grant
program
again
Limited
in
terms
of
the
amount
we
would
provide
in
terms
of
the
dollar
amount
of
a
grant,
and
our
thought
was
In
fairness.
N
We
would
do
it
through
a
lottery
system,
we're
not
married
to
that,
but
the
thought
was
to
a
lot
of
it,
because
there
are
some
people
you
could
do
it
first
come
first
serve,
but
there
are
some
people
who
can't
get
here
to
a
player
who
can't
who
so
the
lottery
we
felt
like
might
be
fairer
in
terms
of
how
we
might
expend
those
funds.
N
P
N
N
I
want
to
make
note
of
this
slide,
because
I
think
that
the
dollar
amounts
in
terms
of
the
maximum
incomes
are
perhaps
higher
than
what
people
might
have
thought
that
there
would
be
so
I
think
that,
because
of
it's,
it's
up
to
300
percent
of
the
poverty
line.
We're
going
to
be
able
to
serve
more
people
than
people
might
perhaps
think
that
we
were
and
to
the
slide.
Where
Melissa
talked
about
serving
businesses
in
the
qualified
census
tracts
her
Department
selected
that
because
it
was
going
to
be
less
burdensome
on
businesses
to
to
apply.
N
If
we
selected
businesses
in
that
area
versus
just
generally
opening
things
up,
there
would
be
more
requirements
for
people
to
apply,
and
it
would
be
harder.
One
things
that
we've
made
a
priority
is
to
try
and
make
this
as
easy
as
possible,
as
we
can,
but
also
making
sure
that
we
follow
the
rules
with.
N
G
Yes,
I
have
a
number
of
questions.
Thank
you
for
the
preparation
of
this
and
guidelines.
I
think
this
is
what
we
needed.
I
do
have
some
concerns
as
it's
been
presented
and
just
just
to
what
was
last
said.
So
we've
kind
of
obligated
it
already
to
these
three
buckets
right,
so
so
I'm
wanting
to
understand,
like
somebody,
could
apply
after
2024
as
long
as
the
money
is
used
by
the
end
of
2026..
O
O
O
G
Who
is
going
to
make
the
decisions
on
these?
Will
it
be
staff
or
Council.
O
Sorry
for
the
individual
programs
for
the
small
business
we
would
do
first
come
first
serve.
You
know,
staff
would
verify
that
they
have
met
all
of
the
qualifications
as
outlined
per
their
treasury
guidance.
As
I
mentioned,
they
would
have
to
meet
the
qualifications
as
being
a
small
business.
O
They
would
have
to
be
in
the
qualified
census
tract
and
verify
what
those
improvements
would
be.
I
think
same
for
the
non-profit.
We
would
do
it
very
similar,
as
I
said,
to
what
we
do
for
cdbg
and
John
M
Scott.
We
have
a
rubric
that
staff
uses
there's
a
subcommittee
that
scores
each
of
the
applications,
and
so
we
would
continue
that
same
process
as
we
do
with
our
Public
Service
type
grants
as
well.
G
And
then
so
that
there's
a
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
dollar
limit
proposed
for
socioeconomic
projects.
So
if,
if
non-profits
had
projects
bigger
than
that,
then
that
would
prevent
that
from
happening
right
if
it's
higher
than
that
amount.
Potentially.
O
Yes,
we
would
set
that
as
the
cap
as
I
said,
especially
with
doing
the
housing
piece
as
well,
when
we
start
to
really
kind
of
distribute
that
it's
gonna.
O
N
Other
thing
we
would
say
to
that
is
that
I
don't
want
there
to
I,
don't
I,
don't
think
there
should
be
an
assumption
that
the
city
funding
is
the
only
funding
for
some
of
the
projects
being
proposed.
I
think
that
in
a
lot
of
cases,
we
want
to
make
sure
that
they're
sustainable
and
that
there's
funding
from
other
sources
as
well.
In
addition
to
any
city
funding
that
was
provided.
G
Okay,
yeah
I
just
think
also
to
the
if
there's
higher
limits
than
bigger
projects
can
have
bigger
impacts
and
then
some
of
the
restrictions
I
think
you
based
it
on
the
Consolidated
plan.
G
Although
I
don't
know,
if
that's
a
little
bit
more
restrictive
than
the
than
the
ARP
guidelines
and
just
just
concerned
that
we
we
could
potentially
leave
out
some
needs
in
the
community
just
because
they
don't
strictly.
G
N
G
It's
the
socio-economic
it
lists
about
seven
different
categories
out
of
the
Consolidated
fund
and
just
wanting
to
see
if
that
is
like
that's
it
or
is
that
just
an
example
of
a
list
of
things
that
could
be
used?
What
were
you
thinking
on
that.
O
So
I
think
that
you
know
there
could
be
other
potential.
You
know
things
that
were
identified.
We
were
using
what
has
been
identified
in
the
communities
needs
through
the
Consolidated
plan
and
the
health
survey.
Obviously,
the
treasuries
try
to
provide
a
a
pretty
exhaustive
list,
but
I
can
say
a
lot
of
those
you'll
kind
of
see
repeated,
even
if
it's
the
the
health
and
the
negative,
the
response
to
the
negative
impacts,
whether
it's
Health
Associated,
which
would
kind
of
fall
within
that
mental
health.
O
If
you
move
over
to
more
of
the
economic
is
where
it's
kind
of
getting
into
you
know
homeless,
Services,
child
care
services,
Workforce
Services.
So
there
is
definitely
a
lot
of
overlap
there
from
what
we've
identified
here
within
the
community.
That
is
a
need
to
be
funded
as
well,
as
is
what's
been
provided
in
the
in
the
treasury
list.
G
Thanks
and
I'll
just
leave
it
with
the
statement
you
know
to
me.
The
art
money
was
to
be
used
for
special
things
that
we
wouldn't
necessarily
spend
on.
So
I
don't
want
us
to
be
using
the
money
on
things
that
maybe
we
should
be
funding
from
our
General
budget
or
or
other
grants
that
are
available.
I'm
thinking
lead
remediation.
G
I
Excuse
me,
thank
you,
mayor,
thank
you,
Melissa.
You
know
for
for
this
presentation
and
Billy
for
for
helping
us
understand.
Just
as
a
follow-up,
you
know
to
councilmember
crabill,
you
know,
I
understand
the
the
desire
to
distribute
resources
broadly
across
the
community
I'm
talking
about
support
for
non-profits
the
social
category.
I
guess
you
know,
150
000
just
doesn't
seem
like
it
doesn't
seem
like
a
lot
of
money
to
me
sometimes
and
I
wonder.
If
there
were
a
larger
project,
it
could
demonstrate
substantive
Community
impact.
I
N
We
could
for
sure
to
be
I
also
want
to
I.
Think
it's
worth
noting
that
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
able
to
distribute
These
funds
across
a
number
of
different
organizations,
because
there
are
a
number
of
different
needs
in
our
community,
of
course.
So,
but
you
could
we
could
you
could
the
other
thing
as
I
said
earlier
is?
Is
we
want
to
make
sure
that
these
programs,
especially
those
that
perhaps
serve
a
regional
need,
aren't
simply
reliant
on
the
city's
funding
that
came
to
the
city
as
their
only
funding
source?
B
Thank
you.
Next
I
have
council
member
Ward
and
then
Walsh.
K
Yeah.
Thank
you
for
this.
It's
really
helpful
to
see
this
coming
to
fruition
and
I'm
I'm
excited
about
it.
Just
for
a
point
of
clarification,
I
think
Mr
tyus.
You
mentioned
that
there
might
be
some
of
these
funds
that
don't
need
council
member
approval
in
order
to
be
spent.
Could
you
clarify
that
and
and
explain
which
ones
and
why
well.
N
We're
still
working
through
some
of
that,
but
we
believe
that
the
programs
would
have
will
have
to
come
back
to
you
for
for
approval,
like
if
you
say
yes
to
the
three
programs,
we
will
come
back
to
you
with
more
specificity
in
terms
of
what
they
are
and
what
the
the
program
limits
are:
the
dollar
amounts,
etc,
etc.
For
you
to
consider
and
approve,
we,
we
would
do
that.
The
some
of
the
approvals
of
like
the
actual
grants,
don't
necessarily
come
back
before
you
or
some
of
the
you
know.
K
O
K
Like
each
individual
item
comes
to
us
is
that
okay,
cool,
correct,
then
one
other
question.
Well,
actually,
two
questions
on
the
affordable,
housing
preservation
and
development
proposal.
You
mentioned
a
lottery.
Can
you
explain
a
little
bit
more
about
what
you're
envisioning
there.
N
Well,
typically,
what
we've
seen
is
that
we
will
open
up
the
lottery
process
and
we
will
say
we
have
funds
available
to
fund
housing
improvements
for
a
defined
area.
We
would
say
you
can
come
in
and
apply
either
online
or
with
a
very
simple
application
for
those
who
are
internet,
Savvy
or
you
can
come
in
between
these
hours
and
give
us
your
preliminary
application,
which
will
list
your
your
information
like
name
address,
perhaps
income,
etc,
etc.
We
would
take
those
and
do
a
preliminary
review
and
then
draw
literally
draw
where
you
know.
N
There's
it's
not
you're,
not
it's
you're
not
standing
in
a
lie.
It's
literally
a
lottery
where
you
draw
the
names
of
people
for
potential
funding
and
it's
an
attempt
to
be
fairer
to
people
who
a
maybe
they're
working
during
the
day,
and
they
can't
be
here
at
eight
o'clock
to
stand
in
line
or
maybe
they're,
not
internet
Savvy,
and
they
can't
start
logging
in
and
putting
their
name
in
it
and
what
symptoms
things
up?
That's
the
intent
of
it
and
literally
the
names
of
addresses
are
drawn,
and
then
we
review
their
applications.
Okay,.
K
N
Original
thought
was
single
family
home
ownership.
We've
had
a
lot
of
conversations
about
rentals
and
we're
still
considering
that
I'm
still
having
that
conversation,
but
our
our
thought,
as
of
right
now
was,
was
a
single
family
home
ownership,
but
we're
still
having
the
conversation.
I
will
say
that.
K
O
N
F
Thank
you
and
thank
you
for
putting
this
together
and
I.
Just
have
a
couple,
questions
and
comments
on
this
with
this
proposal
and
what
you're
throwing
tossing
out
here
for
us
is
there
going
to
be
a
documented
piece
of
paper,
something
that
somebody
can
download
or
come
into
the
to
the
city
offices
and
pick
up?
You
know
for
these
small
businesses
I'll
focus
on
them
first
and
say
these
are
the
guidelines.
This
is
what
you
must
meet
in
order
to
get
this.
F
All
right
next
I
want
to
go
to
the
the
possible
eligible
items
and
I
know
we.
We've
talked
about.
You
know
that
there's
some
things
that
you
know
we
already
have
grants
out
there
for,
but
the
lead
remediation
was
something
that
that
really
touched
me
there
that,
yes,
we
have
grants
for
lead
remediation,
but
if
we
could
take
an
opportunity
to
accelerate
lead
remediation
because
we
have
extra
funds,
especially
when
we
get
into
early
childhood
development,
and
things
like
that,
I
think.
F
That's
something
that
if
we
have
an
opportunity
to
to
accelerate
lead
remediation,
I
think
that's
something
that
we
should
definitely
take
advantage
of
and
then
I
guess
a
couple
other
possible
eligible
items
that
I
would
like
to
see
if
they
are
eligible,
Radon,
Remediation.
F
And
I
know:
there's
programs
out
there
already
from
us
and
lots
of
other
agencies
on
Energy,
Efficiency
I.
Think
Energy
Efficiency
is
something
that
you
know
as
as
we
roll
more
and
more
forward
here,
I
think
it's
we're.
We,
we
all
know
the
importance
of
Energy
Efficiency
that
if
we
could
get
into
you
know
just
unrolling
some
big
roles
in
somebody's
attic.
F
A
Boom,
thank
you
Melissa.
This
is
great.
What
you
did
here,
but
I
do
have
I
just
want
I'm
going
to
make
some
comments
and
don't
be
offended.
A
The
the
ARP
funds
are,
of
course,
eligibility
is
based
on
the
final
rule.
We
talked
about
that.
It
is
relatively
Broad.
How
and
it's
this
funds
are
to
be
used
for
just
disproportionately
affected
by
coven.
You
mentioned
that,
but
they
need
to
be
covered.
Related
These
funds,
in
my
opinion,
are
for
the
lingering
of
facts.
The
lingering
economic
effects
to
businesses
they're
not
necessary
and-
and
it
specifically
says
in
the
final
rule-
that
loss
or
costs
which
were
incurred
on
or
after
March
31st
2021.
A
So
if
we're
bringing
up
things
like
lead,
remediation
and
Radon
Remediation,
and
all
that
that
is
not
covert
related
and
it
was
present
prior
to
these
dates,
so
I
would
have
trouble
going
down
that
path
and,
let's
see
I,
would
like
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
landlords
as
small
business.
Would
that
fall
into
that
category
of
small
business
based
on
the
law
that
you
quoted.
O
As
Billy
mentioned,
landlords
is
still
something
that
we're
we're
looking
into
that
affordable
housing,
preservation
and
development
is
allowable
under
the
treasury
guidance.
So
it
it's
something
that
we're
still
investigating
to
see.
If,
if
there's
an
ability
to
do
that,
I
think
for
the
the
radon
and
Lead
remediation
I,
guess
just
to
make
sure
that
I'm
clear,
because
I
was
understanding
councilmember.
O
While
she
was
saying
that
in
regards
to
the
single
family,
homeowner
correct,
not
okay,
so
I
think
for
those
those
would
all
be
kind
of
those
qualifying
factors
to
you
know
keep
somebody
in
their
home
to
reduce
homelessness.
O
To
reduce
you
know
those
impacts
that
can
occur
if,
whether
it
be
somebody
becoming
disabled
and
and
needing
to
make
those
accessibility
changes
or
just
kind
of
the
Aging
in
place,
you
know
making
sure
that
as
our
population
ages,
we're
helping
them
making
those
changes,
so
I
think
any
of
those
those
types
of
things,
whether
it's
you
know
more
energy,
efficient,
hot
water,
heater
or
air
conditioning
unit
or
furnace
or
Radon
Remediation.
Anything
that's
going
to
help
to
keep
the
person
in
their
home.
O
You
know,
will
will
reduce
that
impact
on
homelessness
and
you
know,
keep
people
in
their
homes,
so
I
think
any
of
those
things
we
can
do
as
well.
Okay,.
D
D
C
Thank
you,
councilmember
Welch,
councilmember
Boland,
yes,
councilmember
montney,
yes,
councilmember
Becker,
yes,
councilmember
Urban,
yes,
councilmember,
Ward,
aye,
councilmember,
crabill,
councilmember,
Crumpler
and.
B
A
I,
don't
necessarily
believe
me
and
a
lot
of
the
things
that
you
were
talking
about
with
single-family
homes
are
pretty
much
addressed
by
the
CBG
Grant.
A
I
personally
would
like
to
see
our
money,
or
at
least
a
significant
amount
go
for
rentals,
rehabbing,
rentals
and
specifically
the
state
just
passed
a
law
HP
2621,
which
would
it's
well,
it's
Tech.
It
has
to
do
with
property
tax
abatement,
but
it
does
not
necessarily
affect
the
tax
base
within
the
city
and
that
law
could
actually
Leverage
against
the
our
funds
to
benefit
rental.
Rehab,
there's
definitely
a
shortage
of
that.
A
You
know
Patrick
Hoban,
you
know
he's
talking
about
rental
units
and
you
know
affordable
units,
and
there
are
several
landlords
that
came
here.
They
can't
rent
their
apartment
because
of
the
lien
because
of
the
water
and
all
that
I
would
like
to
see
some
relief
for
landlords
in
that
sense.
But
if
they
don't
quite
qualify
as
small
business,
then
that
might
you
know
be
an
issue
I,
don't
with
the
CBD
and
our
funds.
A
A
A
Well,
yeah
I
mean,
would
they
qualify
for
you
know
this
art
money
from
the
city
if
they
are
already
receiving
Federal
funding,
I
mean
yeah.
Q
A
Of
both
I
mean
I
would
like
to
maybe
have
the
council
decide
or
you
could
look
into
it
more
clearly
to
see
if
yeah
yeah
I
get
kind
of
paranoid
when
you're
dealing
with
Federal
funding,
because
I
don't
want
to
have
to
return
it
and
be
penalized
for
you
know
using
using
it
with
with
not
within
the
parameter.
O
Yes,
neither
do
I,
so
you
can.
You
can
ask
my
co-workers,
but
that's
how
much
fun
it
is
dealing
with
me
on
that.
But
no
I
I
agree
with
you
and
it
really
kind
of
varies
based
on
the
funding.
So
some
federal
funds,
you
can
use
other
federal
funds
as
your
match
like
if
you
have
a
match
that
you
are
required
to
provide
so
for
some
organizations.
This
may
help
build
capacity
because
they
may
be
able
to
use
the
funds
as
match.
A
Funding
so
that
could
address
Alderman
crabill's
concern
with
the
cap
that
if
they,
you
know
matching
funds,
you
know
we
give
them
150
and
then
that
would
like
match
the
federal
funding
from
maybe
another
Grant,
potentially.
E
Just
like
to
build
on
a
few
of
the
points
that
Donna
just
made,
we
have
had
a
number
of
public
commenters
and
also
written
public
comments
around
the
impact
to
our
available
rental
housing
stock
here
by
virtue
of
the
council's
decision
a
couple
of
years
ago
for
water
bills.
E
It's
my
understanding
that
from
these
commenters
that
the
water
bills
that
were
unpaid
by
the
tenants
of
these
properties
are
now
falling
to
those
landlords
and
as
a
result,
and
in
light
of
the
fact
that
this
package
is
a
covid-19
relief
package
by
its
own
naming
convention
with
the
federal
government.
This
is
a
direct
impact
from
the
covid-19
pandemic
and
the
subsequent
policy
making
here
by
this
Council,
so
I
just
wanted
to
bring
this
up
is
something
that
I
think
needs
to
be
explored.
E
I
realize
that
we've
made
some
sessions
with
some
of
these
landlords
that
perhaps
allows
them
extended
payment
dates
and
things
of
that
nature.
But
I
think
we
do
need
to
know
how
many
rental
properties
in
Bloomington
resulted
in
unpaid
water
bills
that
were
passed
through
to
the
landlord.
What
the
total
amount
of
those
unpaid
water
bills
are
that
have
become
their
responsibility.
K
I
just
need
some
clarity,
because
I
know
this
keeps
getting
raised
over
and
over
again
that
these
funds
shouldn't
be
spent
on
certain
things,
because
they're
supposed
to
be
covered
relief
funds.
So
let
me
just
say
this
and
tell
me
if
correct
me,
if
I'm
wrong
in
saying
this,
is
the
argument
about
the
funds
needing
to
be
spent
on
Covert
related
issues
that
the
pandemic
inordinately
affected,
those
from
lower
socio-economic
levels
and
therefore
addressing
those
issues,
is
Coveted
related
by
definition.
S
Mayor
I'll,
try
and
address
that
so
the
the
ACT
actually
allows
for
several
different.
You
know
we
keep
using
the
term
buckets,
let's
not
use
our
buckets
that
we've
talked
about,
but
the
arpa
buckets,
and
so
the
treasury
guidelines
tell
us
that
we
can
spend
our
money
or
any
any
arpa
funds.
Any
Community
can
do
it
the
same
way
on
several
different
items.
S
One
of
those
items
is
classified
as,
for
example,
lost
revenue,
and
they
have
specifically
said
you
know
we're
just
gonna
assume
and
give
you
a
10
million
dollar
pass
that
we'll
assume
you've
got
10
million
in
Lost
revenue,
and
you
can
spend
that
on
any
government
service
that
you
provide.
There
are
some
limitations
on
that,
but
you
can
provide
that
one
of
the
examples
they
give
is
infrastructure
right.
So
infrastructure
probably
has
very
little
relationship
to
covet,
but
that's
an
allowable
expense
under
the
treasury
guidelines.
S
Another
bucket
does
have
what
Melissa
is
talking
about
in
terms
of
those
impacted
social,
socioeconomic,
those
types
of
impacts
where
you,
you
have
to
show
more
of
that
relationship
as
to
the
impact
of
covid,
and
so
there
are
just
different
categories.
So
one
of
the
things
we're
talking
about
is
at
a
high
level.
The
council
has
said
we'd
like
to
see
these
funds
spent
in
these
ways.
S
What
we
will
have
to
do
with
staff
is
once
you
guys
once
final
decisions
are
made,
go
back
and
make
sure
those
will
check
the
box
of
the
appropriate
treasury
guidelines,
and
so
some
of
them
are
related.
You
know
directly
to
covid.
Some
of
them
are
there's
a
little
bit
more
flexibility
quite
frankly,
but
does
that
help
answer
your
question.
G
Thank
you,
yeah
and
and
I
know.
Some
people
have
talked
after
me
have
made
some
specific,
like
given
specific
examples
and
I'll.
Give
a
specific
example
of
we've
been
presented,
with
a
need
for
a
community
navigator
to
match.
You
know
tenants
with
with
landlords,
so
it's
something
that'll
benefit
both
landlords
and
tenants,
and
but
it
could
be
argued
well,
it
doesn't
necessarily
maybe
it's
homelessness
right,
but
doesn't
necessarily
fit
within
any
of
these.
You
know
buckets
that
have
been
outlined
by
you
and
your
staff.
What
would
you
say
to
that.
O
G
And
then
I'll
say
I
do
think
you
know
if
we're
going
to
consider
like
water
bills
or
water
amounts
owed
by
landlords.
You
know
the
other
option
is
what
we
I
think
have
been
doing,
what
all
the
women
he
said
is
you
know
reducing
those
bills
right
whatever
you
call
that
they
should
know,
but
you
know
reducing
what's
owed
and
and
doing
that
rather
than
necessarily
taking
you
know,
art
money
but
but
I
I
do
see
the
issues
with
that
and
how
they
were
directly
impacted.
F
No
yeah,
thank
you
and
I
just
want
to
want
to
comment
on.
You
know,
what's
what's
available
and
what's
what
constitutes
qualification
under
the
art
funds
and
looking
specifically
at
like
the
grants
for
for
single-family
homes
and
things
like
that?
Well,
those
grants
for
single-family
homes
could
be
worded
as
such
that
that
money
is
going
to
those
those
those
homes,
but
then
that
money
is
them
being
paid
to
small
business
owners.
F
Who
would
have
been
impacted
by
covet
that
that's
an
assistance
to
those
small
business
owners
by
way
of
going
through
home
ownership
and
helping
homeowners
at
the
same
time
that
we're
helping
local
small
businesses.
A
Yeah
I
just
want
to
say
one
last
thing
and
again
it
has
to
do
with
appreciation
for
the
work
that
you've
done.
We
as
a
council
have
pretty
much
decided,
decided
the
buckets
and
we
decided
what
and
then
you
figure
out
how
and
I
think
that
you've
really
done
a
good
job
of
figuring
out
how
I
know
there's
some
tweaks
that
might
need
to
be
done,
but
I
think
that
this
is
going
to
make
it
easier
for
everybody
to
manage
the
funds
and
disperse
them.
So
thank
you.
B
Well,
thank
you,
and
that
is
a
good
way
to
end
that
conversation
kept
Melissa
off
the
hook,
but
I
I
would
add
that
I
just
want
to
thank
staff
for
really
taking
the
opportunity
taking
what
we
discussed
during
the
retreat
and
moving
ahead
with
that.
You
know,
I,
guess
the
technical
term
is
getting
a
jump
on
it
right.
B
B
So
we're
going
to
move
on
to
item
8B
consideration
and
action
on
an
ordinance
approving
the
Fifth
Amendment
to
the
contract
between
the
city
of
Bloomington
and
team
Tim
Gleason,
as
requested
by
the
city
council
and
before
I,
give
Council
a
chance
to
make
some
some
comments.
I
wanted
to
share
some
comments
of
my
own
Mr
Gleason
was
hired
by
the
city
of
Bloomington
in
July.
2018.
time
flies
when
you're
having
fun.
B
Are
you
having
fun?
Okay,
good
I
am
the
only
elected
official
who
was
involved
in
his
hiring
at
the
time
and
I
I.
Believe
then,
and
I
still
believe
now
that
it
was
probably
one
of
the
most
impactful
decisions
that
I
made
as
a
as
an
elected,
official
and
I
know
he's
had
to
work
with
many
different
elected
officials,
but
I
have
noted
that
an
overall
consistent
theme
every
year
and
this
year
is
no
different.
B
Among
the
highlights
of
his
performance,
the
council
noted
excellent
financial
management
of
the
city.
B
B
We've
also
had
the
management
of
the
June
flooding,
which
again
I
I,
think
we
all
appreciated
the
approach
of
having
an
issue
and
then
what
do
we
do?
B
You
know
coming
up
with
some
Creative
Solutions
to
try
to
address
the
issues,
so
this
has
resulted
as
you've
heard
earlier
in
the
acceleration
of
the
Locust
Colton
project,
hydraulic
modeling,
E,
Street
Basin,
to
help
us
deal
with
flooding,
we've
had
a
continued
focus
on
Street,
resurfacing
and
you're,
going
to
see
more
of
that
in
in
future
years,
as
the
council
is
also
committed
to
that,
we've
had
infrastructure.
We
have
projects
such
as.
B
The
library
downtown
sreescape
these
are
projects
that
have
languished
for
a
while,
and
many
of
us
doubted
that
we
would
be
able
to
accomplish
those
before
the
city
manager
came
on
board,
and
here
we
are
so
we've
accomplished
those
or
are
on
the
way
to
accomplishing
them,
and
another
thing
that
you
know
has
been
noted
that
Mr
Gleason
is
widely
respected
throughout
the
community
and
he's
very
present
at
community
events.
B
So
I
know
that
the
the
city
manager
position
is
one
that
is
very
challenging
and
identifying
individuals
who
excel
at
it
is
a
very
difficult
task
in
the
world
of
executive
leadership.
Individuals
with
such
a
record
of
accomplishments
are
routinely
contacted
by
search
firms
on
behalf
of
other
organizations
and
I
think.
For
that
reason,
the
council
as
a
whole
agreed
that
a
3.5
percent
was
fair
and
served
as
recognition
of
a
job
well
done
and
a
very
challenging
circumstances,
but
also
an
expression
of
our
desire
to
retain
him
as
our
city
manager.
B
More
importantly,
I,
believe
retaining
Mr
Gleason
gives
us
an
opportunity
to
build
momentum
towards
the
Strategic
Vision.
We,
as
a
council,
agreed
on
during
our
Retreat.
A
couple
of
weeks
ago,
many
things
came
out
of
that
retreat
and,
as
you
saw,
we
are
getting
a
jump
on
it
already,
which
is
fantastic
and
Beyond
the
familiar
topics,
such
as
infrastructure,
revitalization,
economic
development.
B
That
believed
is
a
true
Desire
by
both
this
Council
and
city
manager,
Gleason,
to
continue
to
work
on
those
areas
of
city
services
that
need
Improvement,
but
also
cement,
bloomington's
position
as
one
of
the
leading
destinations
and
places
to
live
in
the
midwest.
So
with
that
I
I'm
going
to
also
give
Council
an
opportunity
to
share
some
thoughts
if
you
would
like,
or
we
can
start
with
a
motion.
G
I
mean
it's
hard
to
say
anything
more
than
what
you
did
mayor.
100
agree
with
everything
and
I.
Don't
know
if
you
mentioned
I
think
you
mentioned
this,
but
you
know
Tim
had
to
in
the
whole
city
had
to
deal
with
cobit
right,
and
you
know
I
questioned
how
much
we
could
do
and
how
much
maybe
we
should
hunker
down
right,
but
Tim
was
very
you
know,
just
set
the
you
know
set
us
on
the
on.
G
The
right
course
to
continue
to
you
know,
improve
the
city,
provide
benefits
to
people
in
the
community,
Through
use
of
the
arena,
for
you
know,
vaccination
shots
those
types
of
things
and
he
did
a
lot
of
thinking
outside
the
box.
So.
D
B
R
Tonight's
report,
it's
it's
going
to
be
a
little
bit
of
a
rinse
repeat
from
last
month
we're
in
kind
of
strange
times
now
with
the
economy.
Etc
we're
four
months
in.
So
that's
a
third
of
the
way
through
the
year.
Yet
with
some
of
the
revenue
categories,
we
only
have
two
months
so
I'm
gonna
come
to
comment
just
a
little
bit
more
on
process
and
how
we're
handling
this
versus
really
digging
into
the
numbers
which
will
you
know
like
longer
about
month,
six
we'll
start
doing
projections.
R
It
feels
a
little
odd
that
we're
four
months
in
and
we're
going
to
start
talking
about
FY
24
here
in
a
couple
months.
You
know
so
it's
set
time
of
year,
where
calendar
year
22
we're
in
fiscal
year
23
and
we're
going
to
be
starting
about
talking
about
fiscal
year
24
in
a
couple
months.
So
it's
you
know,
keep
your
years
straight.
R
You
know,
as
last
month,
you
know.
Revenues
are
still
trending.
Well,
you
know.
That's
that's
the
two-edged
sword
I've
mentioned
before
about
inflation.
Currently,
anyway,
inflated
prices,
the
same
amount
of
purchasing
by
our
consumers
within
the
city
of
Bloomington,
we're
fortunate
in
that
regard,
so
tax
revenues
are
doing
well.
For
us,
you
know
and
again,
I
will
always
comment.
You
know
we
understand
it.
You
know
that
is
you
know.
The
flip
side
of
that
is
a
burden
to
the
consumer.
R
The
concerns,
of
course,
are
the
supply
chain
issues
and
inflation.
But
I
wanted
to
talk
about.
You
know
how
how
we're
doing
dealing
with
that
from
a
staff
standpoint.
We
can't
control
expenses,
but
we
can
kind
of
manage
them
right.
You
know
with
timing
and
that
that
sort
of
thing
so
item
70
on
the
consent
agenda
tonight
was
a
fire
defibrillator
purchase.
R
I
was
budgeted,
60
Grand,
it
came
in
at
72.,
you
know
so
that's
20
or
so
over
over
budget,
so
fire
department
and
hand
with
you
know
our
budget
manager,
Chris
tomerlin
they're
delaying
two
other
pieces
of
equipment
that
they
didn't
need
to
purchase.
You
know
they
decided
that
they
could
put
those
purchases
off
to
next
year.
R
Those
those
amounted
to
forty
five
thousand
dollars
we're
going
to
delay.
So
you
know
it's
a
little
kicking
the
can,
but
it's
it's
a
it's
a
control
that
we
have
available
to
us.
You
know
with
with
the
expertise
we
have
at
our
staff
level,
our
director
level,
you
know
they're
the
ones
that
can
make
the
decisions
on
you
know
what
can
we
get
by
with?
How
can
we
manage
these
these
con?
These
costs
situations
that
were
were
being
confronted
with.
R
So
having
said
that
next
slide,
please
major
tax
revenues,
as
I
mentioned,
continue
to
do
well.
All
categories
other
than
local
motor
fuel
attacks
are
exceeding
a
budget
year
to
day
I
have
those
two
categories
highlighted
because
last
month,
I
I
did
mention
that
you
know
10
percent
of
home
rule
sales
tax
is
designated
for
the
asphalt
and
concrete
fund
so
posted
directly
to
there
to
that
fund
as
they
come
in.
So
you
know
10
of
a
340
000
overage,
you
know
that's
an
extra
34
Grand
and
you
know
at
this.
R
This
is
early
in
the
year,
but
you
know
we're
kind
of
offsetting
the
decrease
in
the
local
motor
local
motor
fuel
tax.
As
far
as
this
year's
budget
go
now
goes
now,
keeping
in
mind
that
we
did
lower
that
lower
local
motor
fuel
tax
from
the
pre-pandemic
high
of
4.7
million
dollar
budget,
you
can
see
we
have
a
4.1
million
dollar
budget
for
it.
So
you
know,
we've
had
an
impact
related
to
covid,
you
know
the
remote,
Workforce,
etc,
etc.
R
That's
impacting
locomotor
fuel
tax,
but
we're
fortunate
in
that
our
home
rule
is,
is
offsetting
that
and
again
to
repeat
myself
too
much,
but
a
significant
bump
to
that
home
rule
was
the
online
retail
the
local
sales
tax
that
has
to
be
collected
by
those
online
retailers.
Now
it
went
into
effect
a
couple
years
ago.
That's
really
had
a
positive
had
a
positive
impact
on
our
financials.
As
far
as
home
rule
sales
tax
go,
so
you
can
see
at
the
bottom
a
variance,
local
or
total
year-to-date
2.2
million
dollars.
R
R
You
know
the
general
fund
revenues
just
highlighting
a
couple
of
items
again.
You
know
you
can
see
at
the
very
top
where
it
says
through
August
31st
2022.
We
have
the
annualized
trend
I've
mentioned.
You
know
this
is
just
kind
of
putting
things
in
context,
but
it's
not
perfect
we're
one
third
of
the
way
through
the
year,
but
we
have
a
lot
of
seasonality
in
our
activity,
especially
related
to
Parks
building
permits.
R
So
you
know,
looking
at
the
permit
line,
you
can
see
that
we're
46
percent
of
budget
already
versus
a
thirty
three
percent.
You
know
one
third
of
the
year
Well
building
permits.
You
know
the
seasonality
occurs,
a
little
bit
more
in
the
summertime
charges
for
services
were
48.3
percent
of
budget
versus
a
33.
If
we
were
just
you
know
straight
lining
things,
but
that's
Parks
program.
So
a
lot
of
parks
activities.
R
You
know,
you're
gonna
you're
gonna
be
logging
that
in
early
in
the
in
the
fiscal
year
next
slide,
please
so
not
a
lot
to
mention
here
so
far.
You
know
four
months
in
three
one
third
of
the
way:
33
salaries
still
a
little
bit
over,
but
we
had
that
extra
pay
period
in
August,
that's
kind
of
accounting.
For
that
benefits
under
principal
and
interest
expense,
you
know
we
have
some
timing
differences
on
some
of
our
lease
payments,
but
that'll
that
should
be
stabilizing
during
the
year.
R
But
otherwise
you
know
expenses
are
trending
pretty
pretty
well
right.
Now,
but
again,
that's
active
management
by
staff
related
to
timing.
You
know
we're
going
to
end
up
over
in
fuel.
You
know
for
the
year,
but
we
had
some
of
that
contracted
I.
Think
50
of
of
our
expectation
for
the
year
was
was
set
in
an
agreement
before
the
year
started,
but
we're
you
know
we're
going
to
Trend
over
in
that,
but
we'll
make
it
up
in
other
categories.
If
we
have
to
we
watch
this.
R
Every
month,
I
mentioned
before
our
budget
manager,
Chris
Tomlin
meets
with
the
department
heads
monthly,
some
of
the
department
departments
that
don't
have
as
much
activity
from
a
month
to
month
like
human
resources,
that's
a
quarterly
meeting,
but
with
Public
Works
fire
police,
those
those
big
departments,
those
are
monthly
meetings.
Reviewing
those
variances
to
budget
next
slide,
please
and
then
just
reviewing
the
Enterprise
summary
screens
real
quickly
again
wanted
to
highlight
that
the
commitments
POS
purchase
orders.
We
call
those
encumbrances
as
well
under
the
year-to-date
actual
favorable
unfavorable.
R
You
know
from
a
budgetary
standpoint.
It
gets
a
little
confusing
because
we
reference
it.
You
know
we
kind
of
go
cash
accounting
during
the
year,
but
we
also
any
encumbrance
any
purchase
order.
We
hit
that
to
the
budget
immediately.
So
that's
a
commitment
that
comes
off
so
we're
showing
and
I've
been
highlighting
the
last
few
months,
solid
waste,
the
landfill
purchase
orders.
We
we
hit
those
against
the
budget
right
away,
so
that's
showing
us
715
000
year
to
year-to-date
loss.
R
Last
month
we
showed
six
966
000.,
so
every
month
it's
coming
down
because
we
logged
all
those
expenses
on
the
front
end
and
then
each
month,
as
the
revenues
come
in
the
service
fees
for
a
solid
waste,
that
number
will
come
that
loss
will
come
down
each
month.
So
it's
a
little
confusing,
but
that
shows
the
impact
of
our
commitments
I'm
from
day
one
and
then
across
the
bottom.
You
know
we
have
the
revenue
Trend.
R
These
should
Trend
pretty
well
with
budget
Waters
up
a
little
bit
looking
at
that,
but
all
the
other
ones
are
straight
line:
34
versus
a
33
annual
Trend
golf.
Obviously,
seasonality
talk
about
seasonality
there.
You
know
that
weather
is
going
to
drive
golf.
You
know
the
discussion
with
the
city
manager
today,
you
know
the
golf
budget's
a
difficult
one,
because
great
year
weather
great
year
for
golf
bad
year,
weather
tough
year
for
golf
and
then
the
arena
conversation
you
know,
that'll
be
coming
along
as
we
progress
through
the
year
next
slide.
R
Please
so
just
want
to
highlight
to
the
community.
You
know
these
are
posted
online,
along
with
all
the
budgets,
the
two
budget
books
and
the
the
budget
and
brief
everything's
online.
It's
to
to
review
access
anytime.
Anyone
would
like
so
pause
for
any
questions
or
comments.
D
F
Thank
you
and
thank
you
for
the
report.
One
thing
that
that
jumped
out
of
me
real,
quick
and
it's
something
that
that
you
know
always
bothers
me
and
I,
understand
the
numbers
and
having
to
to
balance
the
budget
and
things
like
that.
Can
you
tell
us
what
two
pieces
of
equipment
had
to
be
delayed
by
the
fire
department.
R
P
So
yeah
I
mean
they
are
Lifesaver,
I
mean
I
would
say,
one
of
them
is
the
stair
chair.
No,
the
stair
chair
just
helps
us
move
patients
up
and
down
stairs
it's
it's
a
device,
that's
you
know,
and
what
we
have
is
sufficient:
the
laryngoscopes,
their
video,
laryngoscopes
and
again
I
think
they
just
need
to
be
put
on
a
replacement
cycle
and
they're
still
working
fine.
It
just
was
getting
time
to
start
replacing
them,
and
so
we
can
push
those
off.
F
Yeah,
thank
you
and
then
the
the
next
one
on
the
revenue
screen
did
I
see
a
total
variance
so
far
year
to
date
of
2.1
million
above
okay.
E
Thank
you.
So
this
year,
we've
seen
a
lot
of
water
main
breaks
and
I'm
just
wondering,
as
you
work
with
department
heads
to
put
together
a
budget,
do
we
budget
for
a
certain
amount
of
water
main
breaks,
and
how
are
we
doing
relative
to
that
and
every
time
we
have
a
water
main
break?
How
much
of
a
spike
is
that
in
our
cost
structure,.
R
R
I
mean
there's
a
lot
of
Capital
Improvements
that
they're
looking
at
they're
having
a
study
done
an
infrastructure,
a
water
distribution
study
done
that
Council
approved
a
couple
of
months
ago,
but
right
now
that's
one
of
the
reasons
you
know
it's
always
beneficial
to
have
those
reserves
in
place.
I
just
can't
speak
to
the
specifics
on
how
they
decide.
You
know
from
prior
year,
if
they're
going
to
look
at
a
certain
number
as
an
infrastructure,
ages,
I'm
sure
there's
going
to
be
more
and
then
that's
also
another
one
of
those
things.
E
So
it
just
seems
like
with
the
budgeting
process,
I
mean
as
we're
seeing
more
and
more
of
these
dpacs
that
are
starting
to
add
to
our
cost
structure.
The
sinkhole
issue:
that's
evolving,
the
water
mains.
It
just
seems
like
as
we
budget.
It
would
be
very
helpful
to
delineate
the
budget
category.
That
really
is
about
defect,
repair
versus
the
everyday
maintenance
versus
the
improvements.
R
Justin
I'm
going
to
mention,
if
I
would,
can
we
I'm
discussed
with
the
city
manager
today,
maybe
during
Committee
of
the
whole
or
every
other
session,
where
we
we
highlight
one
of
the
Enterprise
funds
and
show
the
revenue
and
expenditure
exhibit
like
we
do
for
the
general
fund,
so
that'll
show
those
cost
categories
for
those
particular
funds.
So
we
can
start
diving
into
those
during
some
of
the
monthly
reviews.
Q
M
It's
almost
like
you
were
listening
to
our
meeting
this
morning
where
the
the
finance
director-
this
is
his
idea.
He
gets
credit
for
this.
You
know
wanting
to
expand
some
of
the
conversations
about
the
city's
budget
and
the
area
that
he
talked
about,
like
you
just
mentioned,
was
on
the
Enterprise
funds.
M
You
know
offering
a
little
bit
more
detail,
but
do
it
maybe
not
necessarily
the
second
council
meeting,
because
sometimes
meetings
can
run
long
questions
related
to
the
product
that
he
delivers
at
second
council
meeting,
but
maybe
a
good
fit
for
this
would
be
at
the
community
as
a
whole.
So
appreciate
the
question
coming:
yeah.
E
A
Oh
actually,
council
member
Ward,
not
Ward
Walsh
as
the
question
about
the
fire
and
I'm
I
just
would
like
to
say
if
fire
comes
and
needs
something
that
I
would
rather
they
get
it.
Even
if
you
know
I
don't
want
to
cut
corners
on
fire
and
fleece.
That's
cool!
Thank
you.
Well,.
R
We
we
always
err
on
the
side
of
saying
yes
to
the
fire
guys
you
know,
but
that's
one
thing
I
wanted
to
highlight
when
I
first
started
was
that
we
rely
on
the
expertise
of
the
of
the
department
heads
when
it
comes
to
these
kinds
of
decisions.
I
was
trying
to
impress
that
you
know
we
are
reviewing
we're
looking
at
options
related
to
these
expanding
costs
and
delays.
You
know
on
the
flip
side
of
delaying
expenditures
is,
and
I
forgot,
I
wanted
to
mention
this.
R
Is
that
we're
looking
at
the
opposite
in
using
fire
as
an
example
there
of
advancing
expenditures
because
of
the
same
environment
where
we
advance
the
ambulance
purchase
because
we're
looking
at
a
500
Day
lead
time
now,
instead
of
what
was
300
day
prior,
you
know
and
so
trying
to
lock
in
first
of
all
to
have
the
ambience
delivered
when
we
need
it
and
then
locking
into
cost
now.
R
So
it's
kind
of
like
two
opposite
of
delay
in
some
advancing
some,
but
you
know
the
point
being
that
we're
looking
at
it,
relying
on
their
expertise
to
determine
if
we
can
or
cannot
delay
on
certain
items.
Yeah.
G
Thank
you,
mayor,
yeah,
just
curious,
you
know,
I
know
the
budget.
You
know.
Process
for
2024
is
I'm
underway
and
just
curious
kind
of
what's
what's
been
done
so
far,
the
process
in
general
and
and
what's
going
to
happen
the
next
few
months
as
we
start
to
you,
know,
Focus
really
on
it
in
January
right.
R
Yes,
sir
Tim,
did
you
want
to
comment
on
that
or.
M
I
do
actually
the
the
budget
process
for
budget
process
for
fy24
internally
when
I
say
it
starts
a
day
after
you
know,
FY
23
started
it's
true
for
staff,
but
definitely
I've
heard
this
Council
I
mean
it
was
something
that
was
part
of
my
performance
evaluation
wanting
to
be
involved
in
the
higher
level
conversations
earlier
than
the
schedule
that
we
followed
in
the
past.
So
tax
levy
is
definitely
something
that
will
track
separate
two
and
under
the
you
know,
we
have
statutory
requirements
to
meet
there.
M
So
that's
a
that's
a
November
conversation
with
approval,
but
we
see
bringing
Council
into
a
three-on-ones
somewhere
right
after
Thanksgiving
early
part
of
December,
rather
than
bringing
the
council
into
that
larger
conversation
we're
up
by
24
in
January.
So
it's
going
to
be
about
four
or
six
weeks
earlier,
foreign.
B
Next
item
on
the
agenda
is
city
managers,
discussion.
M
I
do
have
a
couple
of
comments.
Thank
you,
mayor
and
Council,
and
to
the
community.
M
Definitely
do
not
like
talking
about
me,
so
I
probably
shouldn't
be
in
the
public
sector,
so
I
get
that
I,
guess
I
want
to
say
thank
you
to
the
elected
officials.
Thank
you
to
my
staff.
Thank
you
to
this
community.
I
truly
am
blessed
I'm,
very
fortunate
to
work
with
an
excellent
team
that
do
a
great
job
of
making
me
look
very
good,
very
proud
of
this
Council
and
I
say
this.
M
M
There
is
not
a
business
item
that
we
do
not
pass.
You
know
sometimes
in
a
tour.
Sometimes
things
are
tabled
for
additional
input
by
to
be
provided
by
staff,
but
it
comes
back
and
we
we
pass
those
items.
So
some
of
the
meetings
are
longer
but
they're,
very
productive
and
very
proud
of
all
of
this
and
I
know
that
we
have
35
meetings
scheduled
for
the
year
and
I
guess.
M
I
have
to
accept
that
we
talk
about
me
on
one
of
those,
so
matteus
I
think
we
have
two
slides
and
October
1st
Friday
is
coming
up
on
October
7th
downtown
next
slide.
Please
downtown
trick-or-treat
looks
like
October
28th
and
then
cider
and
sweaters
Billy's,
already
gearing
up
for
that
one
October
18
team
had
a
couple
of
sweaters
that
he
tried
on
today
and
asked
me
what
I
thought
so,
but
no
I
just
want
to
close
and
say
one
more
time.
Thank
you
very
much,
mayor
and
Council
and
to
the
team.
B
Thank
you
under
I
guess.
It's
next
item
is
a
mayor's
discussion.
I
just
wanted
to
briefly
addressed
a
a
situation
that
you
know
happen
with
Pride
Fest.
B
You
know
this
this
past
week
and
and
just
to
be
clear
that
the
the
staff
addressed
it
in
the
appropriate
way.
The
issue
had
nothing
to
do
with
content
and
it
actually
rather
had
more
to
do
with
compliance
with
special
event.
B
Provision
and
and
I
know
just
to
be
sure
that
you
know
people
have
a
an
understanding
of
what
I'm
talking
about
I
had
to
do
with
the
the
hearts
that
were
I,
guess
sprayed
on
in
front
of
the
The
Bistro
during
Pride
Fest.
B
The
the
markings
have
to
happen
at
a
you
know
when
the
barricades
are
up
and
then
soon
after
the
event
is
over,
the
markings
have
to
be
cleaned
up
so,
and
that
was
part
of
the
the
provision,
and
so
the
the
rules
are
there
to
be
followed,
but
I
I
I
believe
so
the
the
staff
was
able
to
address
the
issue
and
I
think
you
know
right.
I've
heard
comments
to
to
to
that
effect
from
Ms.
Lancaster
also
indicated
that
the
issue
has
been
resolved.
B
I
think
everybody
understands
each
other
now
and
and
then
so.
We're
able
to
to
move
forward
I
think
it
is
it's
important
to
to
remember
that
the
the
city
has
has
always
supported
pridefest.
D
B
We
will
continue
to
to
do
so.
If
anything,
you
know
we
want
Bloomington
to
be
known
as
a
city
that
is
open
to
diversity
and
celebrates
diversity.
B
I
believe
the
unfortunate
part
was
that
you
know
things
were
said
on
on
social
media.
I
think
that
were
might
have
been
misinterpreted,
but
I
I
think
you
know
we
all
learn
from
it
and
then
we
we,
we
kind
of
move
on
we're
a
community
where
everyone
I
think
appreciates
what
we
all
bring
to
the
table
and
and
then
we
we
do
the
best
we
can
and
move
forward.
B
Other
thing
that
I
wanted
to
to
mention
just
a
couple
of
events
that
I
attended
with
and
council
member
Bullen.
Also
mayor
proton
Bullen
was
there
with
me,
which
were
a
very
exciting.
B
You
know
it's
it's
fun
to
go
to
ribbon
cutting,
sometimes
because
it's
issues,
those
are
really
fun
events,
and
when
you
go
there,
you
sometimes
you
have
surprises
that
you
don't
expect
so
I
went
to
the
to
celebrate
the
50th
anniversary
of
the
Evergreen
Racquet
Club
and,
to
my
surprise,
who
was
there
Matt's
villander,
who
is
former
Swedish
number
one
tennis
player
and
I
actually
watched
him
play
when
he
won
at
17
in
Rolling
at
rolling
arrows
in
France.
B
So
that
makes
me
very
old,
but
it
was
really
exciting
just
to
to
see
him
there.
My
brother's
huge
tent
is
fed,
so
I
sent
him
a
picture
he
was
so
jealous.
He
couldn't
believe
it.
He
was
like.
Oh
my
gosh,
this
guy
is
there
in
Bloomington.
That's
amazing,
the
guy
that
we've
all
watched
on
TV
so
go
to
ribbon
cuttings.
You
never
know.
What's
going
to
happen,
we
were
also
at
another
ribbon,
cutting
together
again
with
councilmember
Bolin.
B
The
place
for
children
with
autism
has
a
on
they're
located
on
Prospect,
and
when
you
go
inside
you
don't
expect
it,
but
it's
it's
actually
huge,
very
fantastic
place.
They
provide
services
for
children
with
autism
from
age
two
to
six
and
to
really
kind
of
get
them
ready
for
the
next
step,
and
so
they
could
be
independent
going
into
a
kindergarten.
B
They
have
been
voted
one
of
the
top
50
Healthcare
Providers
and
they're
right
now,
they're
only
located
in
Illinois,
but
Bloomington
is
their
50th
location,
so
fantastic
business,
fantastic
provider
and
then
tomorrow
we
we
have
another
exciting
event.
With
connect
Transit
we
will
be
attending
it's
the
to
celebrate
their
Federal
grant
for
electric
buses.
B
B
D
E
I'd
just
like
to
add
on
to
your
comments
about
the
50th
anniversary
of
Evergreen
Racquet
Club
I
had
the
opportunity
as
well
to
participate
with
them
in
their
events
that
went
through
the
weekend.
It's
remarkable
truly
to
see
a
private
organization
like
that
serve
in
so
many
ways
and
sustain
growth
over
50
years.
It's
certainly
a
testament
to
a
lot
of
good
work
among
the
membership
and
also
with
this
wonderful
community.
B
Okay,
I
could
sit
here
and
talk
about
events
all
evening,
but
I
think
we
are
ready
for
a
motion
to
adjourn.
