Description
No description was provided for this meeting.
If this is YOUR meeting, an easy way to fix this is to add a description to your video, wherever mtngs.io found it (probably YouTube).
A
A
D
D
E
A
B
Do
so
we
received
one
emailed
public
comment
that
was
from
Kelby
Thompson.
It
was
provided
to
council
earlier
today
and
then
we
have
one
in
person.
Public
comment
and
that'll
be
Scott,
steinling,
okay,.
A
Public
comment
is
an
opportunity
for
speakers
to
provide
their
views
and
feedback
to
the
city
council.
It
is
also
an
opportunity
for
the
city
council
to
listen
and
hear
diverse
points
of
view
to
maximize
the
impact
of
public
comment
and
show
respect
for
the
expression
of
All
Views.
Speakers
should
maintain
Civility
and
focus
on
City
issues.
A
Speakers
must
identify
themselves
for
the
record
but
are
not
required
to
give
their
address.
Each
speaker
is
given
the
floor
for
three
minutes,
and
the
city
council
does
not
respond
or
engage
in
debate.
Any
speaker
that
engages
in
threatening
or
disorderly
Behavior
will
be
deemed
out
of
order
and
their
time
ceased.
F
F
At
the
committee
of
the
whole,
the
city
insists
on
setting
these
off
as
normal
as
theirs,
since,
when
did
Bloomington
have
to
be
like
normal,
so
I
guess
the
thing
that
my
concern
is
normal
has
good
streets.
Bloomington
has
rot
in
the
streets.
If
they'd
been
keeping
these
up
a
little
each
year
we
wouldn't
be
in
crisis
mode
now,
and
materials
and
labor
were
a
heck
a
lot
less
than
the
other
thing
is
the
roads.
F
As
I've
said
before
they're
in
horrible
condition,
there
is
a
stretch
of
Washington
Street,
that
is
in
horrible
condition
you
get
down
to
where
it's
paved.
It's
fine.
You
come
around
City
Hall,
the
government
center,
the
sidewalks
are
all
Ada
accessible
and
you
get
into
the
real
world
and
they're
not
daily
accessible.
F
So
it's
yeah.
It
really
irritates
me
to
think
that
you
know
everybody
is
blind
to
the
fact
that
the
fact
that
you
know
we're
they
think
they
can
get
away
with
it.
The
other
thing
it
amazes
me
that
Bloomington
and
normal
have
the
intergovernmental
agreement,
and
but
there's
Bloomington
Public
Transit
System,
the
plumbing
to
normal
Airport
Authority
and
the
bulimic
Journal
use
tax.
But
why
not
just
merger
cities
to
be
done
with
it
it'd
be
a
Heckle
up,
make
a
heck
a
lot
more
sense,
because
right
now,
you're
duplicating
everything.
A
G
Make
a
motion
to
approve
the
minute
says:
okay,.
A
D
A
Okay,
thank
you.
The
item
passes
or
no
needs
to
announce
next
item
on
the
agenda
is
a
regular
agenda
and
item
5A
presentation
regarding
a
proposed
housing,
navigation
demonstration
project
and
Associated
housing
stability,
Navigator
position,
as
requested
by
the
administration
department,
so
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
see
manager
Gleason
for
some
introductory
remarks.
H
Thank
you
mayor
and
Council.
This
has
been
an
ongoing
conversation
for
the
past
few
months
and
have
met
with
various
stakeholders
with
this
project,
and
this
possibility.
Matt
Burgess
is
with
the
home,
sweet
home,
Ministries
and
Aaron
Duncan
is
joining
us,
virtually
I
believe
she's
going
to
be
a
co-presenter
and
she
is
with
Prairie
State
Legal
Matt
I'm,
going
to
turn
it
over
to
you.
Okay,.
J
Let's
see
I'm
not
sure
why
I'm
not
shown
up
here.
H
Hey
Aaron,
we
can
hear
you
just
sharing
that.
J
J
I
was
hired
basically
to
help
with
the
surgeon
evictions
that
we
anticipated
due
to
the
eviction
moratoriums
expiring.
The
last
moratorium
expired
at
the
beginning
of
October.
I
then
also
came
on
to
help
co-chair
this
Housing
Coalition
that
pre-existed
me
and
so
I
was
basically
helping
manage
the
eviction
clinic
at
the
courthouse
for
the
past
year
and
now
I'm
transitioning
into
a
new
role
in
our
Justice
equity
and
opportunity
program,
but
that
will
also
involve
a
lot
of
housing
work.
So
I'm
happy
to
be
here
and
again.
I
Yeah,
and
so
what
Aaron
and
I
want
to
talk
with?
All
of
you
about
is
this
demonstration
project
concept
that
has
arisen
from
the
housing
assistance
Coalition
the
housing
assistance
Coalition
was
formed
in
early
2020,
as
we
were
as
a
community
grappling
with
the
effects
of
the
pandemic
and
the
impact
on
local
families
falling
behind
in
rent,
as
the
different
rental
relief
measures
were
released
from
federal
and
state
levels.
I
This
group
was
convened
to
coordinate
things
at
a
local
level
to
share
information,
to
help
communicate
from
provider
to
provider,
about
the
resources
that
were
available
within
the
the
city
and
the
town
and
then
also
within
the
local
non-profit
Arena.
I
We
really
wanted
to
coordinate
the
access
to
financial
assistance
to
prevent
people
from
being
evicted
when
possible
in
the
process
of
working
as
this,
this
group,
this
Coalition,
you
can
see
on
the
slide,
it's
a
fairly
large
group
of
of
entities
who
are
participating
in
this.
Over
the
past
couple
of
years,
several
barriers
were
clearly
identified
towards
housing,
stability
that
we've
been
working
towards,
and
Aaron
is
going
to
share
a
little
bit
more
information
about
what
some
of
those
barriers
are.
I
J
Thank
you,
Matt
and
I
think
we
can
go
to
the
next
slide
there.
So
part
of
what
we
found
is
that
you
know
covid
really
got
the
agencies
working
together
and
talking
to
each
other
in
a
way
that
hadn't
really
happened
before
and
that
helped
us
identify
issues
that
some
of
them
came
about
because
of
the
pandemic,
but
some
likely
pre-existed
and
were
exacerbated
by
the
pandemic
and
now
certainly
new
needs
have
Arisen.
In
addition,
with
growth
in
our
community
supply
chain
issues,
inflation
all
of
these
things
kind
of
bubbling
around
together.
J
J
There's
a
lot
of
other
things
going
on
here
and
other
outside
pressures.
It's
not
just
related
to
pandemic
eviction.
One
of
the
things
that
we
really
identified
is
that
a
lot
of
the
existing
resources
are
especially
coming
from
HUD.
So
some
of
the
COC
funds
that
come
through
path
and
and
other
funds
that
come
to
other
agencies
in
our
community
are
meant
to
help.
J
Folks,
who
are
unsheltered
are
Street,
Homeless
or
HUD
calls
a
category
one
or
four
so
fleeing
domestic
violence
or
essentially
experiencing
Street
homelessness,
and
that
doesn't
address
a
huge
portion
of
folks
who
are
housing
in
stable
and
maybe
are
not
yet
Street
Homeless.
But
certainly
we
don't
want
to
be
in
a
position
where
we're
telling
people
you
know
some
of
these
resources
are
only
available
to
you
after
the
eviction
already
occurs.
We
want
to
help
bridge
those
gaps
for
folks
who
we
know
are
losing
housing
for
various
reasons,
and
it's
not
just
eviction.
You
know.
J
You've
got
folks
who
just
can't
afford,
where
they're
living
anymore,
who
are
on
month-to-month
leases
and
landlords,
might
refuse
to
re-rent
to
them
and
and
they're
allowed
to
make
those
business
decisions,
but
folks
are
are
oftentimes,
then
putting
a
real
hardship
when
we
have
a
tough
housing
market.
So
we're
looking
at
a
lot
of
complexity
of
situations,
families,
individuals
if
you've,
got
folks
on
fixed
incomes.
J
You
know
folks
who
have
lost
work
and
maybe
become
recently
re-employed,
but
are
still
behind
on
rent
and
trying
to
figure
out
a
way
to
catch
those
people
up
to
stay
somewhere
or
get
them
to
the
next
place.
So
it's
not
always
about
just
staying
in
in
the
unit
they're
in,
but
maybe
finding
new
housing
and
all
of
these
agencies
working
together.
We
all
looked
at
each
other
and
said
you
know,
there's
really
not
somebody
at
any
of
our
agencies
who
can
really
provide
that
extra
step
of
helping
people
put
out
applications.
J
You
know
apply
for
funding
for
three
different
agencies
that
might
have
rental
assistance
funds,
but
have
somewhat
complex
applications
that
you've
got
to
go
through
or
applying
for
a
subsidy
for
housing
or
applying
for
five
different
apartments,
because
we
might
get
denied
for
four
of
them,
and
so
it's
really.
The
idea
of
the
housing
Navigator
is
to
provide
that
extra
help
for
folks
navigating
that
system
of
all
of
these
folks
working
together.
J
Matt,
do
you
have
do
you
want
to
weigh
in
on
some
of
the
folks
that
maybe
you've
worked
with
and
how
you've
seen
some
of
this
in
in
your
day-to-day
life
yeah.
I
Sure,
as
Aaron
said,
our
shelter
numbers
are
are
up
at
home,
sweet
home
Ministries,
that's
true
at
the
Salvation
Army
as
well.
I
In
fact,
we
are
busier
than
at
any
time
in
the
last
three
years
that
we've
been
as
far
as
people
presenting
in
need
of
shelter,
the
number
of
people
residing
in
our
shelter
and
people
that
we're
trying
to
support
through
our
rapid
rehousing
programs
as
well,
and
so
we,
we
really
do
see
this
this
crisis
at
this
point
in
time
and
are
fully
strapped
with
trying
to
keep
up
with
the
demand
that
we
see
just
presenting
to
us
locally
at
home,
sweet
home
Ministries.
I
That
brings
proof
to
Aaron's
comments
that
we
do
not
have
the
capacity
as
an
as
a
specific
organization,
and
if
our
experience
is
typical
for
the
other
organizations
within
our
system,
none
of
us
have
the
capacity
to
coordinate
and
and
support
people
before
we
start
serving
them
in
our
current
structure,
and
so
this
housing
stability
Navigator
fills
that
Gap
that
exists
in
our
current
system
to
engage
and
prevent
people,
hopefully
from
experiencing
eviction
or
if
we
can't
prevent
that
eviction
from
occurring,
prevent
an
episode
of
homelessness
from
occurring
because
we've
been
able
to
get
involved
and
engage
with
them
prior
to
them
losing
their
their
home.
I
And
so
we
see
on
a
daily
basis.
I
actually
asked
my
case
management
supervisor
today
for
the
latest
data,
and
we
see
regularly
people
presenting
to
us
who
have
been
evicted
who,
if
they
haven't
been
formally
evicted,
have
been
told
that
they
are
going
to
be
and
they
try
and
get
ahead
of
it.
So
they
don't
have
that
Mark
on
their
record.
They
have
outstanding
utility
bills.
I
They
have
some
landlord
issues
that
need
to
be
mitigated
and,
and
quite
frankly,
the
families
that
we
serve
our
community
members
that
we
serve
often
get
paralyzed,
because
they
don't
know
where
to
take
that
next
step.
They
don't
know
where
to
go
to
get
started
in
accessing.
Some
of
the
supports
that
really
are
could
be
available,
but
they
just
can't
navigate
my
staff,
my
team.
We
are
too
busy
to
to
be
able
to
get
involved
with
them
at
that
early
stage.
I
That
would
be
the
same
for
any
of
the
nonprofits
working
in
the
homeless
Arena
here
locally
as
well,
and
so
that's
where
we
see
this
need
for
the
housing
navigator
to
really
step
in
and
help
people
as
they
as
they
get
kind
of
vapor
lock
as
they
look
at
oh
I,
don't
know
what
to
do
and
maybe,
instead
of
taking
a
forward
step,
just
decide
to
live
in
denial,
Until
That
official
notice
comes.
We
want
to
prevent
that
from
occurring
through
this
housing
stability,
Navigator.
J
Yeah
and
we
can
go
to
the
next
slide-
you
know
part
of
this
is
about
leveraging
existing
resources
and
looking
at
where
those
already
exist,
but
just
as
an
example,
I
think
you
know
my
experience
speaking
with
the
folks
over
at
path
on
their
rapid
rehousing
program,
is
that
that
program
has
some
funds
available
to
help
people
get
off
the
street
into
a
new
apartment,
but
because
of
the
lack
of
availability
of
apartments
right
now,
they're
having
trouble
finding
the
apartment
and
the
landlord.
J
Who
will
accept
that
rapid
re-housing
payment,
they
can
potentially
Fast
Track
folks
if
they
can
find
their
own
apartment
and
a
landlord
who
will
rent
to
them
and
then
have
path,
help
pay
some
of
those
funds
to
get
them
back
on
their
feet.
But
they
don't
have
the
staff
and
the
capability
to
really
do
that
in-depth
relationship
building
with
landlords
and
to
help
people.
You
know,
find
those
apartments
to
then
pay
the
money
forward
to
be
able
to
use
those
rapid
rehousing
funds.
J
So
our
proposal,
we
are
framing
it
as
a
nav
as
a
demonstration
project
for
three
years.
I
think
part
of
that
is
figuring
out.
You
know
how
much
of
this
is
from
pandemic
related
versus
you
know
it
being
existing
or
exacerbated
problems
and
figuring
out.
Is
this
an
ongoing
need?
J
It's
mainly
for
this
salary,
which,
as
far
as
we
can
tell
from
the
all
of
our
Coalition
agencies,
you
know
there's
not
funding
available
currently
for
funding
a
salary
for
this
particular
position,
and
then
the
startup
funds
piece
is
just
to
give
the
the
Navigator
something
else
to
work
with
after
exhausting
other
resources.
J
After
those
other
resources
are
exhausted
and
the
idea
is
the
Navigator
knows
about
all
the
other
resources
they're
going
coming
to
the
table,
they're
working
with
the
coalition
to
make
sure
that
that
this
is
not.
You
know
the
first
pot
of
money
that
they're
going
to
and
I
know
we're
getting
a
little
bit
down
to
time
here.
I
think
we
had
10
minutes
I
think
we
can
go
to
our
next
slide.
I
We
really
see,
as
this
Coalition
has
really
been
working
together
for
the
past,
almost
two
and
a
half
years
now,
there's
a
lot
of
of
commitment
by
the
the
organizations
that
are
that
are
part
of
the
Coalition,
and
so
we
think
that
housing,
the
the
the
the
housing
stability
Navigator
within
one
of
those
representative
organizations
within
the
Coalition,
automatically
builds
buy-in
by
the
group,
because
we
already
have
been
committed
to
meeting
together
to
to
work
to
solve
this
and
with
having
a
housing
stability
Navigator
in
place
to
coordinate
this
Coalition.
I
We
really
see
as
the
next
Evolution
the
next
step
of
this
group,
that
formed
early
in
the
pandemic
and
now
we're
seeing
a
very
different
type
of
set
of
circumstances
with
a
lot
of
those
emergency
relief
funds
being
exhausted,
but
the
needs
still
existing.
I
The
need
for
this
is
that
no
one
of
us
organizations
have
the
capacity
right
now
to
take
this
on.
That's
why
we
need
to
stand
this
up
to
to
allocate
the
resources
to
make
this
happen.
We
need
to
try
new
things
to
tackle
some
of
these
problems
that
we've
faced
even
pre-pandemic,
but
that
were
really
highlighted
and
and
exacerbated
by
the
pandemic,
and
so
that's
what
we
think
housing
this.
This
Navigator
position
within
one
of
the
representative
organizations
is
the
way
to
go
and
just
for
full
transparency
that
is
not
home.
I
Sweet
home,
it
is
not
I,
have
not
put
but
home
sweet
home
Ministries
forward
as
that
entity.
So
this
is
not
me
coming
for
funding
for
my
organization,
but
me
saying
this
is
needed
in
our
system
and
that's
why
I'm
passionate
about
this,
because
this
will
be
a
new
Endeavor
in
addressing
some
of
these
intractable
issues
that
we
see
with
within
our
community.
J
From
agencies
to
the
Housing,
Coalition
I
think
that
our
plan
is
to
come
forward
to
you
today
and
you
know
figure
out
where
we're
at
in
terms
of
being
able
to
fund
this
program
and
then
work
with
our
agencies
to
figure
out
the
best
fit
for
who
would
house
this
position.
J
I
think
we've
got
one
slide
left
and
that's
just
sort
of
the
tie-in
to
the
the
American
Rescue
plan,
act,
funds
and
project,
and
the
fact
that
this
is
really
a
about
health
and
public
health
as
well,
because
you
know,
if
you
think,
about
somebody
who
ends
up
becoming
Street
Homeless
rather
than
having
that
Gap
covered
and
the
real
disruption
to
so
many
areas
of
that
person's
mental
health
and
physical
health
and
well-being
and
and
family.
J
Systemic
impacts
of
you
know
folks,
having
to
access
additional
resources
at
that
point,
rather
than
being
able
to
have
that
bridge
with
somebody
who's
able
to
help
them
navigate
the
system.
So
we
really
think
that
this
is
a
key
determinant
of
health
and
it
fits
squarely
within
the
priorities
for
the
arpa
funding.
K
Thank
you
and
thank
you
so
much
Matt
and
Aaron
for
making
this
presentation
just
to
provide
a
little
bit
more
of
a
context
for
how
this
has
evolved.
I
I
want
to
stress
that
the
proposal
today
is
coming
from
the
people
who
do
the
work
like
it's
not
sort
of
I,
listen
and
I
think
this
is
great.
Please
come
to
a
council
meeting.
Thank
you,
Tim,
for
allowing
that
to
occur.
K
Thank
you
mayor
and,
and
what
I
I
want
to
stress
is,
first
of
all
that
this,
this
kind
of
initiative
is
covered
by
arpa.
It's
specifically
for
communities
to
build,
affordable
housing,
combat
food
insecurity,
increase
access
to
health
care
and
mitigate
the
consequences
of
unemployment,
all
of
which
are
issues
bound
up
with
homelessness
and,
more
importantly,
designs
of
programs.
Addressing
homelessness
are
best
informed
by
knowledge
gained
from
the
bottom
up
from
local
agencies
working
on
the
ground,
who,
in
turn
are
including
people
with
lived
experience
of
homelessness
in
their
decision
making.
K
K
I
look
forward
to
hearing
what
my
peers
have
to
ask
about
and
comment
on,
because
this
is
a
great
opportunity
to
learn
more
to
see.
You
know
what
else
we
need
to
know
before
we
can
move
forward.
Oh
and
one
more
thing,
my
my
initial
proposal,
too,
in
conjunction
with
the
town
of
normal,
is
to
demonstrate
that
our
communities
can
actually
work
together
on
something
positive
and
not
be
engaged
in
working
at
on
a
common
goal,
but
in
our
our
respective
silos.
K
L
Council
member
amig
actually
just
touched
on
something
in
that
last
comment
that
maybe
I
I
didn't
hear.
Maybe
you
could
clarify?
Who
else
are
you
approaching
for
for
support
for
this
financially
and
why
or
why
not?.
I
We
are
also
approaching
the
town
of
normal.
We
have
a
same
presentation
that
we
plan
on
providing
to
that
Council
in
the
coming
weeks.
We
really
see
this
as
a
community-wide
across
the
Twin
Cities,
that
this
is
an
issue
that
we
can't
draw
a
hard
line
between
the
two,
the
two
municipalities
and.
I
Haven't
gotten
into
those
details
on
our
end
of
the
ask:
we've
we've
put
forward
the
total
amount
of
the
of
the
ask,
but
we
haven't
done
the
the
math
on
What
proportion
from
each
community.
L
Heartening
ble
is
I,
I
haven't
heard
a
whole
lot
yet,
but
what
I
have
heard
I'm
very
supportive
of
I,
especially
like
that
it's
proactive
seems
like
too
often
the
tendency
is
to
kind
of
address
things
from
the
back
end
after
it's
already
a
problem
for
people
and
then
it
seems
like
too
often
people
are
only
willing
to
put
Band-Aids
on
it.
I
would
much
rather
keep
people
from
being
homeless
in
the
first
place.
Yes,
I
mean
don't
take
this
wrong,
but
I'd
love
it.
If
you
were
out
of
a
job
I.
M
You
mayor
Scott
and
Aaron
thanks
for
coming,
you
know
to
talk
with
us
this
evening.
You
know
housing.
Sustainability
is
certainly
important
for
our
community.
Just
a
couple
of
questions.
It
sounds
like
that.
You
know
that
you're
expecting
to
hire.
Whoever
would
take
this
position
is
going
to
come
internally.
Is
that
correct?
You
said
you
had
three
self-nominations.
We.
I
Have
two
of
our
participating
entities
who
have
self-nominated
their
agencies
to
house
this
program?
That's
right
could.
M
J
Thanks
so
we
have
sort
of
a
rubric
to
look
at
those
self-nominations
between
those
two
agencies.
We
didn't
want
to
step
too
much
into
that
until
we
knew
whether
or
not
the
position
would
be
funded
once
that
agency
was
determined
by
the
Coalition,
then
the
agency
would
be
responsible
for
doing
the
hiring
they
in
their
proposals.
They've
said,
you
know,
we
have
the
HR
capacity
and
admin
capacity.
We
have
the
actual
physical
space.
You
know
we,
they
have
a
certain
number
of
things
that
they
had
to
put
forward.
J
M
Great
and
one
more
question:
certainly
you
can't
see
the
future,
but
you
know
this
demonstration
project
is
three
years.
How
are
you
thinking
about
systemic
sustainability?
Beyond
that
three-year?
You
know,
timeline
If,
This
Were
to
be
you
know
some
wonderful
success.
You
know,
then
what
or
if
it
was
perhaps
turned
out
to
be
not
what
you
anticipated
at
all.
How
might
you
you
know
respond
to
that
situation?
Yeah.
I
To
answer
you
plainly:
I
see
this
as
an
opportunity
to
demonstrate
how
robust
a
public-private
partnership
can
be
between
municipalities
and
the
local
non-profit
sector,
and
really
showing
that
when
we
try
new
things,
we
can
have
much
more
success
than
what
we've
done
up
to
now
within
the
non-profit
realm
there
are,
there
are
additional
funding
opportunities
once
we
demonstrate
that
that
a
program
or
a
new
project
has
some
efficacy
to
it,
and
so
that
would
certainly
be
part
of
the
the
future
funding
options
for
for
this
type
of
program.
I
Ideally,
this
would
be
the
first
step
along
the
way
to
a
more
robust
and
intentional
development
of
affordable
housing
and
support
for
people
in
affordable
housing.
Our
lower
income
Neighbors
in
those
arenas.
J
We
have
looked
at
other
communities
that
have
done
this
type
of
work,
sometimes
they're
housed
at
non-profits.
Sometimes
it's
through
municipality
I
think
that
the
person
in
this
position
has
would
have
a
very
big
job
right
off
the
bat
you
know
when
we
first
talked
about
it.
We
said
well,
well
can't
we
start
with
two
or
three
people,
but
I
think
for
logistically
just
getting
it
going.
It
would
be
easier
to
start
with
one
and
then
that
person
can
look
at
outcomes.
J
N
Thank
you
mayor,
thank
you,
Matt.
Thank
you.
Aaron
and
Aaron.
You've
been,
like
you,
said,
in
the
front
lines
with
the
eviction
clinic
and
I've,
been
there
with
you
a
number
of
times
where
tenants
really
have
no
other
option
and
it
seemed
to
evolve
from
where
you
know
the
landlords
would
accept
rental
assistance
and
then
I
think
when
the
market
became
Tighter
and
there
was
an
ability
to
raise
rent.
That
landlord
said
yes,
I
know,
I
can
get
assistance,
but
I
just
want
them
out.
N
So
I
can
raise
the
rent
and,
and
then
you
have
to
talk
to
them
about
you
know.
Can
we
get
30
days
for
them
to
move
out?
You
know
what
can
we
do
to
help
this
person
not
become
homeless
and
and
also
with
regard
to
helping
for
a
person
to
find
resources
in
that
condition,
right
of
there
being
almost
homeless?
N
You
know
I
just
remember
going
through
mclp
into
poverty,
simulation
and
I
know
you
don't
have
to
go
through
mclp
to
do
that,
but
you
know
we
were
put
in
positions
as
as
people
in
in
homes,
so
you
lose
your
housing
and
it
was
very
difficult
to
find
the
right
agency
to
get
to
to
help
you
and
you
had
to
go
to
like
four
or
five
to
get
the
whole
relief.
You
know
that
you
need
so
I
do
see
the
need
for
this
and
I
just
want
to
make
clear.
N
There
will
be
an
organization
if
this
is
approved
by
both
Bloomington
and
Norman.
There
will
be
an
organization
that
will
kind
of
oversee
it,
but
the
person,
the
Navigator,
wouldn't
necessarily
be
from
those
organizations
that
could
be
anybody
right.
I
N
Yeah,
but
they
they
would
hire
that
person.
That's
correct,
okay,
yes,
gotcha,
and
then
what
would
you?
What
would
success?
Look
like.
I
Success
would
look
like
fewer
evictions.
Success
would
look
like
lower
numbers
of
homelessness
in
our
community.
Success
would
look
like
getting
involved
with
a
family
during
the
most
stressful
time
in
their
life
to
help
provide
stability
for
them
to
help
keep
them.
Ideally
in
that
current
home
and
if
not
help
them
find
another
home
in
the
community
and
not
have
an
episode
where
they
have
to
come
to
home,
sweet
home
or
Salvation,
Army
or
somewhere
else.
I
J
Think
it
also
looks,
like
you
know,
mitigating
the
need
for
community
members
to
move
out
of
our
community.
That's
certainly
something
that
we've
seen
as
well.
People
can't
afford
to
stay
here
right
now.
If
you
can't
find
another
home,
that's
available
on
a
timeline,
the
timeline
that
you
have,
if
you're
being
evicted
or
if
your
lease
just
ended
on
a
month-to-month
lease
and
you
got
a
notice
to
move
out
so
I
think
that's,
that's
a
part
of
it
as
well.
N
And
yeah
and
I'll
just
add
at
the
end,
you
know
it
really
does
sound
like
the
Navigator
would
be
doing
something
that
no
one
else
is
is
doing
including
path,
including
home,
sweet
home,
Ministries
and,
and
this
and
the
determination
will
also
be.
Is
this
something
that's
temporary
right,
covid
related
or
did
we
need
a
navigator
in
February
of
2020.
E
So
one
I've
worked
with
in
different
phases.
Many
of
the
organizations
on
your
list
and
thank
you
to
all
of
you
and
thank
you
for
your
presentation.
You
guys
do
very
good
work
and
you
do
things
that
are
very
necessary.
My
question
to
you
is
given
the
way
that
you
have
the
organizations
trying
to
do
this.
I
Assuming
we
have
positive
working
relationships
with
each
other
right,
I
suppose
if
it
were
a
more
independent
or
separate
from
the
existing
Coalition,
that
could
bring
that
impartiality
could
bring
some
some
weight
to
it,
but
I
really
don't
see
it
as
a
better,
either
way.
I
think
it's
viable
either
way.
E
And
I
guess
maybe
this:
this
might
be
a
question
more
for
people
up
here,
but
between
those
four
organizations
shouldn't
we
have
the
capacity
to
provide
some
of
this
help
already.
I
I
think
the
reality
is,
our
existing
structures
are
maxed
out.
We
are
busy
managing
what
already
exists,
and
so
perhaps
it
would
be
preferable
if
we
had
gotten
to
this
point
and
had
it
built
into
our
system
already.
But
our
system
has
developed
over
time
to
be
what
it
is
and
that's
the
reality
of
the
the
playing
field
that
we
have
in
front
of
us
right
now.
E
J
J
I
I
think
that
you
know
there
may
be.
Certainly
we
have
relationships
with
the
townships
and
with
the
town
and
with
the
city
and
those
folks
have
we.
We
have
Representatives
who've
participated
in
this
Coalition
work
as
well
and
are
part
of
this
conversation
already,
but
it
doesn't
seem
from
where
we
can
tell
that
there
is
really
a
dedicated
person
and
I.
Think
having
that
dedicated
person
who
has
all
of
the
the
knowledge
is
the
info
Clearinghouse
person,
really
that's
going
to
actually
create.
J
You
know
a
lot
more
I'm
trying
to
think
of
the
word,
but
it's
going
to
be
less
resource
intensive
overall
right
to
have
one
person
that
we
know
this
is
the
person
to
go
to
when
you
can't
figure
out
where
to
send
your
client,
who
needs
help
filling
out
the
application
for
the
subsidy,
because
there's
nobody
else
to
help
them
and
so
I
think
that's
that's.
I
I
and
I
do
think
that
there
there
could
potentially
be
a
challenge
if
it
was
housed
in
city
of
Bloomington,
Township
or
the
town
of
normal
Township,
because
that
might
suggest
that
it's
not
an
actual
community-wide
initiative
and
community-wide
scope.
Whereas
I
already
said
it's,
not
home
sweet
home
Ministries.
J
I
think
if
we
had
one
in
each
of
the
municipalities,
maybe
that
that
makes
more
sense,
but
in
terms
of
it
being,
you
know,
a
community-wide
issue.
You
know
when
we're
dealing
with
evictions,
it's
McLean
County,
Circuit,
Court,
right,
it's
the
county
and
with
with
Matt's
work,
they're,
certainly
helping
folks
who
are
experiencing
homelessness,
who
are
coming
from
both
the
city
and
the
town
and
from
outlying
areas.
G
Me,
since
somebody
mentioned
the
county
has
has
have
you
talked
to
them
about
being
included.
I
know
that
the
fuse
program
through
the
behavioral
health
coordinating
Council
goes
out
and
looks
for
people
that
are
homeless
and
tries
to
re-home
own
them.
So
has
there
been
conversations
there
and
then
I
have
another
question?
G
I
I
We
all
enter
into
a
common
hmis
system
and
then
we
would
have
local
I
I
track
data
on
a
quarterly
basis,
just
for
home,
sweet
home,
Ministries
and
so
would
assume
my
partner
organizations
do
similar
Data
Tracking
in
their
places
as
well
and
and,
like
I
said,
my
data
tells
us
we're
busier
than
we've
been
since
2019.,
and
so
there's
all
different
ways
to
look
at
what
that
looks
like
from
a
data
standpoint,
but
that
is
tracked
for
sure.
J
Your
first
question,
the
the
you
know:
the
county
has
been
involved
with
these
discussions
as
well.
We've
got
the
McLean
County
Regional
Planning
Commission
has
been
one
of
our
key
Partners
as
part
of
the
Coalition,
as
well
as
some
other
County
Representatives
have
have
joined
our
meetings.
I
think
something
like
the
the
fuse
program
you
know
is
dealing
with
folks
who,
who
really
are
in
Dire
Straits
on
the
street
and
again
that's
one
population.
That
certainly
would
be
eligible
to
use
these
services.
J
But
there
are
there
is
that
complexity
of
situations
and
and
folks
who
are
experiencing
housing
instability
who
are
doubled
up?
You
know:
they're
they're,
multiple
family
members
living
together,
who
really
that's
not
the
ideal
situation,
and
they
shouldn't
have
two
families
living
Under,
One
Roof,
but
that's
a
sort
of
a
form
of
homelessness
or
living
in
a
car
or
something
like
that.
That
is
a
little
less
visible
and
so
we're
trying
to
reach
all
of
those
folks
across
that
Spectrum.
I
Yeah
and
and
fuse
definitely
provides
an
important
service,
but
they
serve
only
a
small
fraction
of
even
who
homes,
home
Ministries
serves,
and
so
the.
G
Main
question
was:
are
you
partnering,
with
the
county
financially
even
oh,
okay
and
I
I
read
all
the
paper.
I
mean
I
read
every
page
that
was
submitted
to
us
and
there's
lots
of
Duties
listed
here.
What
are
the
qualifications
for
this
person
and
how
many
hours
per
week
are
they
expected?
You
know
I'm
just
looking
at
that
and
I
guess
you
can
I.
I
I
can
comment
very
quickly
on
that
qualifications.
I
This
is
obviously
somebody
who
would
be
an
experienced,
Social,
Work,
professional
and
the
reason
we're
calling
it
a
demonstration
project
is
because
we
fully
expect
there
to
be
more
need
than
one
person
can
meet,
but
we
want
to
demonstrate
with
this
initial
step
that
this
can
be
an
effective
model
rather
than,
as
Aaron
said,
you
know,
rather
than
hiring
and
asking
for
two
to
three
staff
positions
right
right
out
of
the
gate
we
wanted
to
to
show
and
and
be
judicious
in
use
of
resources.
I
Knowing
that
likely
it's
going
to
exceed
our
ability
to
serve
everyone
initially
and
and
leave
room
for
expansion
down
the
road.
G
About
housing,
the
Navigator
it's
on
location,
then
office
supplies
and
all
that
type
of
stuff
would
that's.
J
The
the
the
salary
amount
is
a
both
of
the
agencies
that
self-nominated
put
the
salary
at
around
45
000..
So
when
you're
looking
at
the
that
salary
piece
over
three
years,
certainly
the
the
amount
is
more
than
45
000
per
three
years,
but
the
additional
amount
on
top
accounts
for
all
of
the
administrative
costs.
J
G
Okay,
the
last
thing
I
have
to
say
is:
this
really
is
a
short,
an
attempt
to
solve
a
problem
short
term
there's
not
enough
housing.
That
is
the
problem,
a
serious
problem
and
not
just
for
the
underprivileged
or
those
that
had
a
negative
effect
from
covet
the
people
that
are
moving
out
of
town,
many
of
them
they
can
afford
rent
of
fifteen
hundred
dollars
a
month.
Okay,
there
is
a
state
bill
that
came
out.
It's
HB
2621
that
is
intended
to
solve
the
long-term
Problem
by
putting
out
its
incentives
specifically
for
affordable
housing.
G
I
personally,
don't
see
how
a
navigator
can
help
with
the
lack
of
housing.
I'm,
just
I
don't
see
how
this
proposal
helps.
In
that
sense,.
I
Yeah
and
at
home,
sweet
home
Ministries,
we
would
say,
preach
it
when
you're
talking
like
that,
we
I
absolutely
agree
with
everything
that
you
said
and
the
intention
of
this
housing
stability
Navigator
is
not
to
solve
that
long-term
issue.
It's
to
solve
the
immediate
crisis
that
we
know
is
occurring
right
now,
with
an
eye
towards.
If
we
can
get
people
stabilized,
we
can
maybe
take
the
next
step
as
a
community
and
start
working
towards
building
out
that
affordable
housing.
J
J
Or
to
do
a
Master
Lease
with
one
of
our
agencies,
project
Oz
places
some
of
their
clientele
in
to
homes
and
helps
pay
for
those
homes,
while
they're
getting
to
their
The
Next
Step
as
young
adults.
So
there
are
some
incentives
and
ways
to
work
with
agencies
and
ways
for
the
navigator
to
talk
with
the
landlords
and
help
keep
building
those
bridges.
You
know
we're
doing
a
pretty
good
job,
I
think
as
agencies
talking
to
each
other,
but
then
it's
also
getting
that
information
to
the
clients
and
really
helping
them
understand.
J
What
are
you
eligible
for?
Does
this
apartment
have
a
set
aside
for
senior
housing
in
particular
that
maybe
other
people
can't
access,
but
you
can
because
you
would
qualify.
You
know
there
are
a
lot
of
those
those
things
that
I
think
this
Navigator
could
help
with
with
our
existing
stock
that
we
have
of
housing.
L
B
J
So
I'm,
just
looking
at
our
list
of
membership
here,
you
know
we
hadn't,
discussed
I.
Think
the
easy
answer
is
no.
You
know
we
hadn't
we
hadn't
made
and
ask
to
any
of
those
groups.
We
are
primarily
made
up
of
non-profit
groups
and
then
it's
a
loose
Coalition.
That's
that's
how
I'll
put
it
in
terms
of
our
membership,
so
this
represents.
You
know,
representatives
from
each
of
these
places
join
on
these
monthly
calls.
It's
a
place
to
share
information
with
each
other,
and
so
everybody
sort
of
knows
what's
going
on.
J
Where
are
the
resources
trying
to
get
people
to
the
right
place,
but
it's
not
a
formal
Coalition
with
profit
or
non-profit
membership?
If
that
makes
sense.
D
There
are
some
philanthropic,
you
know,
departments,
so
in
some
of
these
businesses,
I
just
was
curious
if
you
were
approaching
them
so
and
then
my
second
question
really
I
guess
is
for
you
Aaron.
You
talked
about
the
complexity,
the
process
and
one
of
the
reasons
this
person
would
be
needed
is
to
help
people
navigate
the
complexity
so
I'm
interested
in
what
actions
you
and
your
Coalition
partners
are
taking
to
simplify
the
processes.
J
Well,
that
that's
really,
you
know
what
the
Coalition,
what
we've
been
trying
to
do
in
terms
of
talking
to
each
other
is
try
to
all
be
on
the
same
page.
So
we
know
what
resources
do
currently
exist
so
that
when
I
do
have
a
client
on
the
phone
who's,
a
housing,
legal,
legal
aid,
client
I'm,
not
just
trying
to
address
their
legal
problem
I'm
trying
to
also
then
get
them.
J
The
application
and
they've
got
a
huge
line
of
people
waiting
for
applications,
so
they
can't
sit
there
necessarily
and
work
through
the
entire
application
with
them
or
the
other
three
applications
from
three
other
agencies
that
we
refer
them
to.
So
we're
trying
to
simplify
it
by
talking
to
each
other.
Having
this,
this
focused
person,
who
can
have
all
of
those
names
on
the
the
list
and
really
have
the
Clearinghouse
of
information,
so
we
can
make
one
call
instead
of
six
calls,
is
really
going
to
to
further
help
simplify
things.
D
So
just
a
thought,
you
know
creating
an
intentional
process,
architecture
across
all
of
these
organizations
and
their
respective
processes.
Whether
you
have
this
position
or
not
I
think
would
be
very
helpful
because
without
it
this
person
will
still
be
driving
a
fire
truck.
It
sounds
like
because
there's
a
lot
of
I
guess,
complexity
and
differentiation
in
your
processes
that
could
be
addressed
in
a
project
type
fashion.
J
And
there
is
some
groundwork
for
that:
Matt
might
be
able
to
speak
to
it
more
in
terms
of
their
early
and
with
some
of
the
coveted
dollars.
Specifically,
there
was
one
application
for
a
few
agencies
that
was
a
little
more
succinct
and
being
able
to
just
do
that.
One
piece
I
think,
as
we've
seen
some
of
those
dollars
running
out
from
different
sources,
we've
started
to
see
it
become
more
fractured
just
because
of
the
nature
of
where
we're
at
in.
In
some
of
those
monies
going
away
and
Matt.
I
Absolutely
we,
you
know,
there's
been
a
lot
of.
There
was
certainly
a
lot
of
early
work
by
the
Coalition
on
sharing
information
publicly
with
the
community
to
get
it
out
there.
We
developed
uniform
marketing
materials
so
to
speak,
to
provide
people
direction
towards
the
the
different
funding
opportunities
that
existed.
Aaron
referenced
a
common
application
where
we
could
develop
that
that
can
get
challenging,
based
off
of
funding
requirements
and
and
expectations
of
of
different
fund
sources
with
what
how
easily
we
can
combine
those
processes.
C
Thank
you,
Mr
Mayor,
look,
you
know,
kind
of
playing
on
on
the
whole
project
and
and
trying
to
get
the
word
out
more
I
just
did
a
quick,
Google
search,
Bloomington
Illinois
housing
assistance,
because
that's
the
type
of
thing
that
somebody
you
know
hey
what
I
need
help.
What
can
I
do
and
first
two
that
come
up
happen
to
be
Bloomington,
housing,
authority
and
housing
authority
of
the
city
but
and
then
so
housing
assistance
city
of
Bloomington?
C
Is
there
a
specific
website
out
there
as
a
Clearinghouse
already
that
an
individual
could
go
to
it
could
be
housed
by
any
of
your
partners?
They
just
you
know,
get
a
good
get
a
good
domain
name
that
that's
you
know
kind
of
talks
about
what
it
is:
get
a
good
domain
name
and
some
type
of
Clearinghouse
web
page
already
that
something
like
this
position
could
end
up.
You
know
working
into
and
using
the
same
page,
but
it
has
all
the
information
well
laid
out.
Don't
put
a
lot
of
words.
C
People
don't
read
words,
but
just
you
know
short
sweet
to
the
point.
If
you
need
this,
go
here
here
and
and
continued
all
in
one
place
for
people.
J
There's
something
sort
of
like
that,
but
it's
an
it's
a
spreadsheet
that
the
agencies
all
share.
That's
not
publicly
available
and
part
of
the
reason
for
that
is
that
things
are
changing
all
the
time.
Some
of
the
some
of
the
funds
sometimes
run
out
or
some
of
the
requirements
change,
and
so
we
want
to
be
able
to
keep
that
updated
amongst
ourselves
and
then
be
able
to
share
the
information
directly
with
our
clients.
G
Yeah
I
just
have
one
more
comment
to
make
allocation
of
federal
funds,
whether
it's
the
covid
or
the
arpa,
or
any
kind
of
federal
funds.
G
I
have
strict
documentation
requirements
and
administration
of
the
arpa
funds
would
be
the
same.
So
I
have
a
real
concern
with
just
handing
out
the
money
and
not
having
documentation
that
the
city
can
report
to.
If
it.
If
the
resources,
the
financial
resources
from
the
federal
government
are
not
accounted
for
or
are
not
spent,
the
way
they're
supposed
to
be,
the
federal
government
will
come
back
and
ask
for
the
money
back
and
they
will
find
the
city.
G
I
Yeah
and
certainly
I
think
there
as
we
develop
the
program.
There
are
reporting
parameters
that
can
be
established
to
to
feed
that
accountability
and
I
can
tell
you.
Those
concerns
are
very
much
the
day-to-day
concerns
of
a
non-profit
organization
that
is
part
and
parcel
for
any
grant
funding
that
flows
to
us,
and
so
we
are
experienced
in
making
sure
that
we
use
funds
wisely.
We
report
back
accurately
about
their
expenditures
because
nobody
wants
to
have
to
pay
that
money
back.
J
Idea,
having
come
out
of
those
these
Community
discussions
and
we
all
are
interested
in
there
being
outcomes
and
outputs
so
that
we
see
you
know
what
really
is
happening,
why
it
is
a
demonstration
project.
You
know
the
goal
is
that
we
have
something
at
the
end
to
show
for
it,
whether
there's
a
continue
need
or
not.
Foreign.
K
K
Yeah
I
was
just
going
to
add.
That
is
that
okay.
K
That
there
there
are
models
that
the
HUD
has
put
out
too
Housing
and
Urban
Development
about
how
municipalities
and
and
cities
have
used
arpa
funds
in
this
way
and
have
been
able
to
create
models
of
accountability
with
my
non-profit
hat
on
I
I
agree
completely
that
you
are
tasked
to
be
incredibly
accountable
to
your
funders
and
and
what
I
like
about
positioning
this
as
a
proof
of
concept,
is
that
it
gives
us
an
opportunity
to
demonstrate
with
accountability
and
data
that
it
is
providing
some
form
of
relief
that
can
then
be
jettisoned
into
public-private.
K
Partnerships
can
be
used
to
procure
more
grant.
Funding
can
be
used
to
engage
in
more
philanthropic
philanthropic
requests
because
you're
creating
the
demonstration
of
how
this
can
be
can
work
to
resolve
the
issue
and
I
think
it's
I
think
that
hb2
2621
is
really
exciting
and
I
hope
that
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
good
things
can
come
out
of
it
in
terms
of
incentives.
I
I
see
that
I
don't
see
this
as
mutually
exclusive
I.
N
I'll
be
brief,
mayor
just
to
Donna's,
Point
yeah
I
agree.
You
know
we're
gonna
have
to
determine
if
there's
enough
accountability
here
right,
but
you
know
I
would
compare
it
so
we've
given
quite
a
bit
of
our
money
to
infrastructure
right
and
then
we've
also
given
it
to
the
mobile
health
unit,
which
is
a
private
entity
that
will
have
to
get
you
know,
accountability
there.
So
I
don't
see
any
difference
in
this.
N
K
G
Just
you
know
just
to
respond
to
that.
The
bus
is
a
physical
object
that
you
can
actually
see,
and
you
know
patients
going
in
and
out
and
all
that,
whereas
you
know
a
navigator
is,
is
yes
a
physical
object,
a
person.
However,
the
work
that
they
do
is
not
necessarily.
J
Briefly,
I
think
you
know
they
would
have
a
caseload
and
they
would
they
would
be
tracking.
Were
we
able
to
keep
this
person
housed?
Was
this
person
able
to
get
into
new
housing
before
becoming
homeless?
Did
they
become
homeless,
and
then
they
were
able
to
get
into
new
housing
quickly.
So
I
think
that
there
would
be
metrics
for
that.
J
It
might
look
a
little
different
than
my
system,
but
certainly
we
track
that
sort
of
information
in
our
program
for
our
legal
cases
and
I
think
that
there
would
be
ways
of
keeping
track
of
it,
because
we
certainly
would
want
to
see
at
the
end
of
the
project.
You
know
that
that
there
had
been
those
outcomes.
O
J
Certainly,
you
know:
I
I
have
empathy
for
landlords
who
have
had
financial
hardship
because
of
those
issues,
I
think
it
when
you're
looking
at
a
tenant
who's
facing
imminent
homelessness.
That's
the
sort
of
level
that
we're
looking
at
this
position,
I
think
trying
to
immediately
serve
in
terms
of
clientele,
but
I.
Don't
I
think
that
the
Navigator
would
certainly
be
trying
to
build
those
Partnerships
and
and
make
sure
that
our
housing
stock
is
being
used
appropriately.
That
would
be
part
of
it
as
well.
O
Okay,
thank
you
for
that
right
now,
I'm
going
to
be
honest
with
you
both
that
I
don't
feel
like
I
have
enough
data
or
information
to
be
able
to
make
a
decision
on
something
like
this,
so
I
would
suggest
that
you
bring
some
more
information
to
the
table
and
that
way
we
can
kind
of
get
a
better
idea
of
what
we're
actually
investing
in.
If
the
council
decided
to
do
such
a
thing.
A
Thank
you
and
it's
it's
an
interesting
point
that
councilmember
Irvin
brings
up.
First
of
all,
I
want
to
say
that
I
I'm
glad
you
raised.
You
know
you
brought
this
issue
forward
for
us
to
to
consider
foreign.
A
And
that
you're
also
proposing
a
solution.
You
know
so
I
I
think
that
that's
a
good
thing
you
know.
Ultimately,
you
know,
as
we
continue
to
to
discuss.
You
know
we'll
we'll,
hopefully
come
to
a
solution
that
that
is
acceptable
for
for
all
I
I
do
agree
that
there
is.
We
probably
would
need
a
little
bit
more
information.
A
For
example,
you
know
maybe
communities
that
you've
benchmarked
that
do
this
kind
of
program.
You
know
I,
think
that
would
be
helpful
to
kind
of
give
us
an
idea
where
it
has
work
where
it
hasn't
and
if
it's
communities
that
are
similar
to
ours,
I
think
that
that'd
be
helpful
and
I.
You
know
one
of
the
reasons
why
I
I
I'm
happy
that
you
brought
this
forward.
A
Is
that
because
I
I
do
know
I
agree
with
council,
member,
Bull
and
I
think
nobody
here
will
disagree
that
there
is
a
you
know.
We
have
an
issue
with
housing,
but
yet
that
issue
is
not
going
to
be
solved
right
away.
A
It's
going
to
take
a
little
bit
of
time
to
to
you
know
to
build
stuff.
So,
in
the
meantime,
I
think
we
do
need
to
do
something,
but
we
just
need
to
figure
out
what
the
the
right
thing
to
to
do
is,
and
another
thing
that
I
would
I
would
add
is
is
maybe
providing
some
some.
Maybe
like
a
tangible
case
studies.
You
know
where
we
can
see
where
actually
the
complexity
lies
because
some
you
know
for
some
of
us,
you
know
those
are
just
words
and
I.
A
Think
people
might
have
a
tendency
to
oversimplify
you
know
what
you're
talking
about.
You
know
it's
not
just
about
filling
out
forms,
but
there's
there's
actually
some
real
complexities
to
to
those
things.
So
I
think
it'd
be
helpful.
You
know
for
people
to
actually
walk
through
what
a
a
particular
situation
is
and
also
having
numbers
about.
You
know
the
the
kinds
of
things
that
you're
you're,
seeing
the
numbers
of
people
that
you're
you're,
seeing
what
are
we
talking
about?
A
I
A
A
Next
item
on
the
agenda
is
5B
presentation,
discussion
and
potential
Direction
related
to
redistricting
map
options;
proof
proposed
by
staff
and
residents,
as
requested
by
the
city
clerk
department
and
the
administration
department
and
I'm,
going
to
turn
it
over
to
city
manager.
Gleason.
For
some
introductory
remarks,.
H
Thank
you
mayor
and
Council.
My
comments
are
going
to
be
very
brief
before
I
turn
this
over
to
city
clerk,
Leslie,
Yocum
and
Corporation
Council
to
walk
us
through
this
presentation
when
we
get
to
the
end
of
this.
If
it
be
council's
desire-
and
there
is
a
recommended
single
map,
we
would
be
prepared
to
bring
this
back
in
front
of
council
for
a
vote
as
early
as
next
Monday
Leslie.
B
Thank
you.
So
by
now
we
have
seen
the
maps
for
quite
a
while.
We
have
had
redistricting
items
to
resolutions
and
then
last
week
the
maps
brought
forward.
So
it's
appeared
on
three
different
agendas,
starting
back
in
March
the
maps
that
were
presented
last
week.
There
are
four
staff
proposed
maps
and
we're
going
to
walk
through
those
and
then
also
celebrating
again
one
of
our
residents.
Matthew
loss
also
presented
a
Fifth
map
to
us
and
did
a
remarkable
job
with
that.
B
So
if
we
can
go
to
the
next
slide,
please
so
I'll
start
by
just
talking
a
little
bit
about
what
is
required
of
redistricting
and
why
we
do
that.
So
we
went
through
the
census
in
2020,
and
our
City's
population
grew,
which
is
wonderful.
That
said,
the
Constitution
requires
that
our
word
Maps,
as
close
as
we
can
push
forward
and
represent
the
population
as
evenly
as
possible.
So
with
that
our
city
grew
to
78
680
with
the
last
population
and
our
Ward
Maps
across
all
nine.
B
A
goal
population
is
eight
thousand
seven
hundred
and
forty
two
so
there's
three
things
that
the
constitution
requires
for
a
perfect
map.
The
first
is
compactness,
the
second
is
contiguousness
and
the
third
is
the
equal
on
the
population
deviation,
so
in
terms
of
contiguousness
that
one's
pretty
easy
for
us.
That
really
just
means
that
they
all
align
and
touch
and
because
the
way
our
our
precincts
that
make
up
the
words
are
laid
out.
B
It's
really
not
a
factor
that
we'll
go
through
today,
because
they're
all
contiguous,
naturally
in
terms
of
compaction
compaction,
is
we're
really
trying
to
avoid
drawn
out
or
purposely
pulled
together,
precincts,
and
that
gets
a
little
tricky
for
us,
but
is
less
of
a
concern,
because
some
of
our
precincts
are
just
naturally
in
that
shape.
So
if
we
look
at
on
this
particular
map,
Ward
8,
which
is
the
purple
that
area
to
the
east,
which
is
where
the
Grove
is
located-
that's
just
the
shape
of
that
Precinct.
So
we
really
can't
avoid
that.
B
So
with
this
one,
this
is
the
first
map
we
call
it
plan
one
or
the
minimal
moves
map.
The
minimal
moves
map
is
exactly
what
that
sounds
like
what
we
tried
to
do
here
and
we
utilized
an
esri
GIS
software
to
do
so,
and
we
basically
move
around
52
precincts
or
cookies,
as
Troy,
Olson
and
PW
would
call
them
to
come
up
with
combinations
that
would
come
together
for
nine
Wards
and
meet
the
this.
B
The
factors
that
we
just
talked
about
so
in
this
one
we
really
tried
to
make
the
least
amount
of
changes
to
meet
their
standard
requirements.
One
of
the
things
that
came
out
of
the
census
is
that
Ward,
7
and
Ward
8
are
the
two
that
really
kind
of
threw
us
off.
So
it's
great
it's
growth
but
they're
the
ones
who
are
moving
around
to
factor
into
these
three
things.
B
B
So
in
the
map
that
you
see
here,
what
we
did
is
we
made
the
least
amount
of
moves
that
we
could
and
then
you'll
see
that
the
main
Buckle
of
downtown,
which
is
the
yellow
and
pink
area
there,
that
it
it
Remains
the
Same
as
we
have
in
our
current
word,
map
taken
amongst
the
four
staff
promo
proposed
Maps.
This
one
ranks
fourth
for
compaction
and
population
deviation.
B
This
is
actually
plan.
Two
three
and
four
are
a
little
bit
of
what
I
would
say.
A
cleanup,
so
I'd
like
to
point
out
a
couple
of
things
that
we
tried
to
do
to
try
and
improve
the
the
way
that
the
words
are
laid
out
so
you'll
see
here
that,
let's
see
if
we
look
at
the
light,
yellow
and
the
light
blue,
those
are
words
four
and
five
and
then
continuing
down
south
the
orange
Ward
one
and
purple
Ward
eight.
B
We
tried
to
utilize
Veterans
Parkway
as
a
means
of
cleanup,
so
we
thought
this
might
be
a
nice
way
to
have
residents
in
the
community,
be
able
to
look
at
or
be
out
and
about
I,
guess
and
understand
who
might
fall
into
which
Wards
so
Veterans
Parkway
has
used
that
and
you'll
see
that
pushed
across
a
few
of
the
maps.
The
other
thing
that
we
did
is
we
brought
the
downtown
area
area
into
a
single
representation
by
a
single
council
member,
and
so
the
idea
behind
this
is.
B
We
thought
that
by
bringing
them
together,
it
might
unify
the
area.
Allow
a
single
council
member
to
be
able
to
receive.
You
know
the
good,
the
bad,
the
great
whatever
you
want
to
call
it
and
be
able
to
report
back
to
the
council
in
that
manner.
So
you'll
see
there
that's
represented
by
the
light
colored
pink
next.
What
we
did
is
we
looked
if
you
look
in
the
bottom
left
corner
the
green
and
the
orange.
B
That's
words
one
and
Wards
two
here
and
there's
basically
two
different
ways
that
you
can
lay
out
that
downtown
area
and
still
accomplish
some
of
the
other
goals
that
I
talked
about
or
the
cleanup
ones,
not
necessarily
the
statutory
ones.
So
this
is
what
we
call
our
horizontal
layout
here.
You'll
see
if
we
go
to
the
next
slide
with
Plan
Three
that
the
green
and
the
orange
words
one
and
two
switch
to
more
of
a
vertical
layout
there.
B
So
one
of
the
things
that
you
might
be
thinking
about-
or
maybe
it's
just
me
because
I've
been
doing
this
and
digging
in
these
numbers
for
so
long-
is
compaction.
So
one
of
the
things
with
compaction
and
I
said
we
weren't
going
to
address
it
too
much,
but
I
do
want
to
point
out
is
that
the
standard
test
that
is
primarily
used
in
the
state
of
Illinois
is
just
an
eye
test.
So
when
you're
thinking
about
compaction-
and
you
look
at
it
and
you
go
wow,
does
this
look
like
it's
purposely
drawn
out?
B
Or
does
this
look
more
compact
just
from
the
visual
test?
So
if
we
can
go
back,
fill
to
plan
three
and
see
that
the
horizontal
layout
I
originally
said
to
Troy
and
PW,
this
has
to
be.
You
know.
This
has
to
be
the
least
compact
way
to
do
it
when
we're
looking
at
vertical
and
horizontal,
and
in
fact
the
data
actually
is
just
one
point
off,
so
it's
actually
less
than
a
point
difference
in
a
compaction
standpoint.
B
If
we
switch
between
the
vertical
layout,
that
was
in
Plan
Three
and
the
layout
of
plan
two,
so
to
finish
up
with,
we
can
stay
on
plan.
Two
sorry
Phil
I
just
was
trying
to
get
that
bottom
corner
for
plan
two.
Another
thing
that
we
tried
to
do
was
think
about
future
growth
and
to
also
think
about
things
like
neighborhoods.
That
might
be
divided,
so
you
know
you're
in
your
neighborhood,
and
the
guy
across
the
street
is
represented
by
somebody
else,
but
you
also
have
you
know
Common.
B
You
know
celebrations
or
ailments
whatever
you'd
like
to
call
them
similar
to
what
I
was
saying
with
downtown
and
so
the
upper
right
hand
corner
where
we're
looking
at
light:
blue,
five
and
red
nine
and
light
green
three
and
there
what
we
did
is
we
took
some
large
neighborhoods,
particularly
Hawthorne,
was
split
between
two
Awards
there,
and
you
know
these
often
these
large
neighborhoods
they're
operating
under
you
know
a
single
neighborhood
association,
and
so
it
thought,
okay.
B
If
we
can
try
to
pull
some
of
these
together,
it
might
unify
them,
and
so
here,
ward
3
is
now
in
a
single
Ward,
whereas
today
under
our
map,
it's
it's
a
split
word
in
terms
of
that
neighborhood.
We
did
that
across
all
of
our
Awards
and
precincts
too
so
I'm
just
calling
these
out
as
examples,
but
just
want
to
to
be
mindful
that
we
looked
at
all
of
these.
The
same
another
thing
I
I
should
have
said
in
the
beginning,
too,
is
the
hashed
precincts
that
you
see
there?
B
Those
are
actually
the
ones
that
a
current
council
member
lives
in
and
by
city
code.
They
have
to
live
in
the
ward
that
they
represent,
and
so
with
this
it
may
did
make
it
a
little
bit
trickier.
I
would
say
to
do
to
be
able
to
lay
it
out,
but
those
are
the
ones
that
are
represented
by
a
current
council
member
and
then
the
plan
will
be
once
you
do
approve
a
new
map.
The
new
Ward
Maps
will
not
be.
B
They
won't
go
into
effect
until
May
1st
after
the
election,
which
is
in
coming
up
this
coming
April.
But
what
it
will
do
is
it
will
allow
those
who
are
interested
in
seeking
counsel
or
those
that
are
going
to
see
free
appointment
to
be
able
to
Canvas
the
appropriate
areas
that
they
know
that
they'll
represent
in
the
future.
B
All
right.
So
the
last
thing
to
point
out
on
plan
two
I
referenced
a
little
bit
in
terms
of
future
growth.
So
if
we
look
at
the
light
green
ward
3,
this
represents
eight
thousand
five
hundred
and
twenty
six
in
terms
of
the
population
of
that
Ward.
B
Whereas
if
we
and
we'll
get
to
it
in
just
a
little
bit
when
we
go
to
plan
four
plan,
three
and
four,
actually,
if
you
want
to
go
to
plan
two,
we
could
fill
please
that
changes
actually
ward
3
there
and
Ward
3
jumps
to
nine
thousand
one
hundred
and
two
and
so
again
this
is
just
an
example
of
taking
into
account
future
growth.
B
Do
we
want
to
start
from
the
beginning
and
having
you
know,
awards
that
have
more
than
the
8742,
which
is
our
goal
or
if
we
have
the
chance-
and
there
are
some
that
are
over
so
in
some
of
these
plans
too.
So
it's
not.
B
You
know
ideal
across
the
board,
but
when
we
look
at
it-
and
we
do
have
the
opportunity
to
begin
now
under
the
goal-
we're
hoping
that
you
know
in
10
years
when
we
come
back
and
do
our
census
that
we're
back
at
this
table
I,
don't
know
that
I
don't
want
to
be
in
charge
of
the
project
Jeff,
it's
using
him
he's
the
one
who
gave
it
to
me
in
the
beginning,
but
no
I
I
mean
we
want
to
be
mindful
of
wanting
future
growth,
but
at
the
same
time
trying
to
be
mindful
of
it
now,
where
we're
not
going
to
start
out
with
them
over,
if
we
to
so
with
Plan
Three,
we
just
covered
that
top
corner.
B
So
it
does
push
the
award
the
ward
3
to
9102
and
then,
as
we
talked
in
the
bottom
left,
we
go
to
that
vertical
layout
there.
The
downtown
area
is
one
Buckle
represented
by
Ward
six,
as
you
see,
and
we
also
kept
the
Veterans
Parkway
line
in
terms
of
division
kind
of
there
in
the
middle
as
well
ranked
amongst
all
of
the
plans.
I
didn't
say
it
early,
but
earlier
but
plan.
B
Two
is
first
for
compaction
and
population
deviation
and
when
we
get
to
ward
3,
this
is
actually
ranked
third
for
compaction
and
population
deviation
and
we'll
go
to
the
last
staff
one
and
then
hit
the
resident
all
right.
So
this
one
is
plan
four
plan,
four
ranked
second
amongst
compaction
and
population
deviation.
It
has
that
same
upper
right
hand,
corner
that
pushes
Ward
three
to
nine
thousand
one
hundred
and
two
it
has
the
Veterans
Parkway
line
for
cleanup.
B
It
also
has
that
bringing
the
downtown
under
a
single,
but
what
it
does
differently
than
three
is.
It
goes
back
to
that
horizontal
layout
for
words,
one
and
two,
so
a
little
combination,
I
guess
all
of
them
across
the
board.
As
a
recap,
just
for
these
ones,
before
we
move
on,
is
that
plan
two
would
be
ranked
first
for
popular
for
population
deviation
and
compaction
plan.
Four
that
you
have
in
front
of
you
would
be
ranked
second
Plan
Three
would
be
right.
Third
and
then
plan
one
or
minimal
moves
as
friends.
B
First,
that
said,
I
want
to
point
out
that
there's
not
a
bad
plan
here
and
I
truly
mean
that
it's
you
know:
I
got
to
dig
into
the
numbers
and
dig
into
the
case
law
and
the
requirements,
but
really
Troy
Wilson
and
public
works
or
GIS
guy.
If
you
will
did
all
the
magic
to
make
this
happen,
and
we're
super
proud
to
say
that
amongst
the
four
plans,
not
one
of
them
has
a
population
a
mean
population
deviation
of
more
than
four
percent,
and
so
with
the
statutory
requirement
being
ten
percent.
B
Four
percent
is
pretty
impressive.
That
said,
we
did
receive
one
submitted
plan
by
a
resident
if
we
can
go
actually
two
slides
I
think
it'll
be
there'll,
be
a
title
slide
that
comes
first
yep.
So
this
one
public
plan,
one,
is
what
we
call
it.
B
I
did
not
receive,
you
know,
notes
or
factors,
or
things
like
that
to
be
pointed
out
by
Matthew
that
submitted
it,
but
I
will
tell
you
that
he
submitted
it
to
us
and
it's
an
Excel
document
and
I
can't
imagine
the
time
that
he
has
put
into
it.
So
I
really
want
to
stress
how
impressive
it
is
that
he
he
got
to
this
point.
It
meets
all
of
the
qualifications
of
the
statute.
B
It's
mean.
Deviation
is
6.67,
so
still
well,
underneath
the
the
10
percent
it's
it
is.
B
It
is
different
in
you
know,
from
what
we
presented,
but
I
mean
he
uses,
who
utilizes
veterans
a
little
bit
in
the
middle
there
to
do
some
cleanup
downtown
stays
with
multiple
award
representations
and
across
the
board,
like
you
said,
even
for
compaction,
everything
was
in
line
for
what
it
needs
to
be
and
contiguous
isn't
a
factor
so
big
props
to
him,
and
at
this
point
I
don't
know
if
Jeff,
if
you
had
anything
more,
you
want
to
add,
doesn't
look
like
it.
I
mean
some.
B
He
didn't
kick
me
from
over
here,
so
we
did
okay
but
happy
to
take
your
questions.
The
the
last
thing
that
I
would
say
is
that
racial
disparity
is
also
a
factor
to
that.
We
considered
it's
not
a
statutory
required
factor
in
the
sense
of
the
three
big
that
I
mentioned,
the
compactness,
the
contiguousness
or
the
population
deviation.
B
But
once
the
maps
pass
those
three
tests,
then
you
can
look
at
the
racial
disparities
and
they're.
Really.
What
we're
trying
to
look
at
is
just
to
make
sure
that
we're
not
deluding
the
minority
vote
and
so
I
would
say
you
know
we
teased
that
when
we
first
got
this
project
and
I'd,
you
know
be
wrong
to
not
mention
Jeff
and
Billy
and
sing
their
praises
too,
because
we've
all
been
at
the
table
doing
this,
but
we
thought
we'd
come
out
with
a
hundred
plans.
B
You
know
and
how
and
then
we're
gonna
get
all
these
resin
planned.
How
are
we
ever
going
to
get
here?
You
know
that
kind
of
thing,
and
the
reality
is
is
that
when
you
actually
consider
where
each
of
you,
the
council
members,
live
those
precincts
being
locked
that
really
knocks
out
a
number
of
plans,
I
would
say
we
probably
got
down
to
10
or
15..
B
Something
like
that
and
at
that
point
we
did
pool
ones
that
if
there
was
a
red
flag
from
a
racial
disparity
standpoint,
it
went
you
know
we
knew
that
the
software
that
we
were
using
could
only
turn
out
certain.
It
could
turn
out
a
lot
of
maps,
but
we
wouldn't
actually
pull
Maps
together
if
they
didn't
meet
the
three
statutory
requirements
and
so
that
got
us
down
pretty
low.
B
What
I
didn't
know
is
where
everybody
lives
and
I
know
that
sounds
even
kind
of
creepy
to
say:
I,
don't
know
where
you
live,
but
I
am
proud
to
say
that
our
community,
as
diverse
as
it
is,
is
spread
throughout
and
I.
Think
a
lot
of
people
might
assume
differently
and
so
just
proud
to
be
a
part
of
the
project
and
happy
to
answer
any
of
your
questions.
L
Thank
you,
madam
clerk,
for
for
the
presentation
and
for
the
supplemental
materials
and
all
of
the
the
work
you've
put
into
this.
It's
been
a
learning
process
for
me,
too,
and
and
very
an
interesting
one.
One
can
I
just
ask
a
point
of
clarification
before
a
couple
of
other
substantive
comments
with
map
five.
Did
you
say
that
the
deviation
was
six
point,
something
or
other,
because
I
thought
that
the
document
that
you
shared
with
us
that
the
proposed
redistricting
public
plan,
one
population
summary,
said
3.66.
B
So
the
mean
the
mean
word
deviation
for
public
plan.
One
is
6.66
percent.
L
B
L
B
You're
exactly
right:
I
wrote
down
6.66,
but
it
is
3.66,
so
we
can
actually
make
that
same
statement
across
the
board
for
all
of
them.
I.
L
Just
didn't
want
to
be
looking
at
the
wrong
thing.
So
just
a
just
a
couple
of
questions
about
the
whole
race
question.
Can
you
just
tell
me
what
the
goal
was
for
looking
at
racial
disparities?
Were
you
trying
to
ensure
that
that
each
Ward
had
roughly
the
same
mix
or
or
were
you
trying
to
ensure
that
that
each
War
I
I
don't
know?
Can
you
just
explain
that
to
me
yeah.
B
I
can
so
I
think
it's
important
to
also
mention
the
process
that
we
chose
in
this
Jeff
and
I.
Don't
want
to
speak
to
his
work
before
I
got
handed
it,
but
did
a
lot
of
research.
What
other
cities
have
done
right-
and
you
know
there's
others
that
have
held
you
know
more
public
hearings
or
Hands-On
kind
of
workout
plans
together
and
whatnot,
and
the
process
that
we
wanted
was
to
be
focused
on
data
right.
B
So
having
a
data
filled.
Project
allows
us
to
come
in,
and
I
mean
that
on
the
racial
disparity
side,
on
all
of
all
of
the
factors
of
the
statute
as
well,
so
that
it's
data
driven,
it's
removing
bias
opinions
whatever
you
want
to
call
it
from
the
you
know
the
process
in
general,
and
so
what
we
would
do
is
once
we'd
satisfied
the
three
overall
factors
and
we
are
diving
in
what
we
would
do
is
we
would
look
at
it
in
at
the
data.
B
That's
there
and
the
census
provides
all
of
that
data.
I
should
have
said
earlier
from
on
a
Precinct
level,
and
so
what
you're
looking
at
trying
to
do
is
not
dilute
the
minority
vote
right,
and
so
we
are
a
majority
white
community,
and
so
by
that
we
want
to
make
sure
that,
for
example,
I
remember
a
plan
that
that
got
thrown
out
very
early
on
and
it
was,
is
going
to
dilute
a
Hispanic
vote.
We
were
going
to
in
the
shape
of
the
ward,
the
way
that
we
had
pulled
it
together.
B
B
And
so
the
goal
is
to
not
dilute
the
minority
vote
anymore,
but
we
also
don't
want
to
get
into
a
way
of
you
know,
gerrymandering
or
you
know,
where
you're
pushing
all
of
your
minority
votes
into
one
into
one
area
from
a
voting
perspective,
so
you're,
basically
trying
to
just
make
sure
that
yes,
there
is
a
majority,
but
that
the
minority
still
has
an
opportunity
to
have
power,
and
you
know
make
an
impact
in
the
voting
area.
P
P
So
that's
why
the
clerk
talked
about
how
you
know
that
was
not
a
factor.
You
look
at
those
other
compaction,
equal
population,
those
type
types
of
things,
but
on
the
back
end
you
also
don't
want
to.
If
you
had
a
a
a
ward
or
a
district,
that
is
what
would
be
considered
like
a
minority
majority
type
District.
You
don't
want
to
have
broken
that
up
so
to
speak.
Now
we
did
not
have
anything
like
that.
P
So
there
was.
You
know
that
we
would
not
be
violating
that
principle
so
to
speak.
But
generally
you
don't
consider
you
know
you
don't
want
to
dilute
the
minority
vote.
You
also
don't
want
to
do
anything
to
if
you've
got
a
district
that
is
made
up
primarily
minorities.
You
don't
want
to
unintentionally
break
that
up
either.
So
that's
a
long
way
of
saying
basically
when
you're
drawing
these
up
you're
not
really
considering
race.
But
you
also
want
to
make
sure
at
the
back
end
that
you
haven't
done
anything
to
impact
that
negatively.
P
P
It's
it's
that
we
so
there
think
of
it.
This
way,
if,
if
you've
got
a
District
that
is
primarily
Hispanic
and
you
we
drew
these
War,
you
know
we
drew
these
Wards
and
we
saw
that
one
Ward
is
completely
made
up
of
of
Hispanic
individuals
that
that's
the
majority
there
we
would
likely
be
violating
the
law
if
we
took
that
and
diluted
it
right.
So
that
would
be
not
something
we
would
want
to
do.
B
Fortunately,
if
I
to
go
back
to
her
like
I
said
earlier,
fortunately,
our
diversity
is
pretty
widespread
and
so
I
think
it
was
around
like
a
30
percent.
Minority
is
kind
of
a
norm
across
all
Wards
when
you're
looking
at
all
the
different
Maps,
and
so
you
know
like
we've,
it's
a
very
difficult
thing.
I
know
to
try
to
portray,
but
we
did
see
in
numbers
in
certain
instances
where
a
delusion
would
have
been
material
and
those
were
not
considered.
P
L
Well,
so
I
guess
the
one
other
piece
of
information
that
would
be
helpful
to
me
and
then
I'll
I'll,
stop
is
do
any
of
the
maps
that
have
been
proposed
either
by
the
city
staff
or
by
the
public.
L
B
Yeah
so
we
had
talked
councilmember,
Ward
and
I
had
about
this,
and
so
I
was
diving
into
numbers
all
day.
If
I,
if
I
will
to
try
and
see,
how
can
you
rank
them?
You
know,
like
you,
had
asked
I
the
you
rank
them
by
population.
B
Deviation,
you
rank
them,
you
know
by
popular
by
compactness
Etc,
and
why
can't
you
rank
them
by
race,
and
the
problem
is:
is
that
when
you,
when
you
get
into
it
different
Ward
layouts
have
different
impacts,
but
then
it
might
be
that
this
particular
because
we
had
I
think
I
think
there's
six
races
that
were
primary
and
then
we
even
had
an
additional
section
that
was
other,
and
then
we
had
an
additional
section
that
was
two
or
more
of
minorities
right
and
so
to
get
into
the
weeds
and
say
that
this
minority
one
is,
you
know
more
important
than
this
other
one
is
where
I
had
the
challenge
and
I
went
and
looked
at
lots
of
different
other
ways
to
calculate
it
and
whatnot
and
the
best
thing
that
I
came
up
with
today
and
again.
B
If
you
guys
can
come
up
with
something
or
there's
another
way,
we
would
be
more
than
happy
to
run.
Numbers
in
a
different
manner
was
to
take
and
I
added
up
all
of
the
minorities
across
like
the
particular
Ward
and
then
divided
it
by
the
population
total,
so
I
would
understand
like
I
mentioned
earlier.
B
Okay,
this
particular
Ward
layout
is
32
percent
minority
in
this
board,
and
this
one
is
29
and
then
across
that
map,
then
I
did
a
mean
deviation
and
it's
kind
of
an
interesting
and
that's
where
I
got
the
30,
because
it
would
come
to
30
percent.
You
know
30.556
30.67,
you
know
which
makes
sense,
because
I
can't
change
the
makeup
of
our
community.
It
is
what
it
is,
but
that
was
the
closest
thing
that
I
could
get
to
a
a
quick
answer
to
the
ranking
in
that
sense.
So.
N
So,
first
of
all,
you've
answered
a
lot
of
my
questions.
After
the
the
maps
have
been
provided,
Leslie
that
yeoman's
work
you
and
then
a
lot
on
Troy
right.
He
had
the
gis,
stuff
and
Jeff
as
well,
and
so
just
amazing,
but
there's
a
lot
to
look
at
and
a
lot
of
things
to
to
consider,
and
it
almost
seems
almost
as
complicated
or
maybe
more
complicated
than
the
budget,
and
so
it's
hard
to
get
public
input
right.
N
You
know
what
does
the
public
even
know?
What
to
look
at
I
mean
we've
been
given
all
this
and
I'm,
not
100
sure
of
everything
you
know
to
look
at
so
a
little
bit
concerned
about
the
lack
of
public
input,
but
maybe
that's
just
kind
of
natural.
With
with
this
right
and
I
understand,
you
know
the
goal
of
relying
on
data
right
and
then
you
know,
I
also
think
it
would
be
a
nice
goal
to
have
more
diverse,
older
people,
people
that
don't
look
like
me.
N
We've
done
a
good
job
with
mayor,
but
you
know
when
we
look
at
the
council
members
and-
and
you
know
we
still
need
to
do
some
improvement
on
that
and
I.
Don't
know
if
that's
something
that
we
can
you
know
address
when
we
look
at
the
maps
and
and
in
Jeff
and
looking
at
the
document
you
shared
with
me
and
the
Illinois
Voting
Rights
Act.
Even
when
you
don't
have
a
minority
majority,
they
also
want
you
to
look
at
creating
crossover
districts.
N
Coalition
districts
influence
districts
right
so
where
maybe
a
minority
doesn't
doesn't
reach
the
50
right,
but
they're
a
high
enough
number
where
they
can
get
cross
over
from
non-minorities
or
other
minorities.
Things
like
that
and
and
I
I
know
that
that's
something
that
you
considered
but
I
don't
know.
N
B
Yeah
so
I'll
take
your
first
con.
The
first
thing
you
said
first
about
the
public
input
and
so
I
will
say
you
know:
did
we
have
a
public
hearing?
No,
but
we
were
on.
You
know
in
three
different
Council
agendas
and
we
originally
the
original
resolution
that
was
passed
back
in
March
when
we
got
into
putting
together
maps
and
we
realized
how
you
know:
it's
not
an
easy
process.
B
We
talked
with
Jeff
and
Billy
and
that's
when
it
was
decided
to
give
the
public
even
more
time.
And
so
that's
when
the
the
other
resolution
came
out
and
the
the
time
was
extended
for
submission
of
plans
and
then
we
bolstered
and
worked
along
with
Catherine
the
communications
and
external
Affairs
manager,
also
on
making
sure
that
the
information
that
we
were
putting
out
was
clear
and
then
I
answered.
Questions
I
didn't
get
a
lot
of
questions,
I
will
say,
but,
for
instance
like
with
Matthew
when
he
was
putting
together
that
plan.
B
You
know
if
he
had
any
questions,
then
I
would
answer
them
and
you
know
not
providing
legal
advice
or
anything
like
that.
But
just
answering
the
general
questions
of
what
do
we
need
to
do?
What
is
this?
How
is
that,
and
so
we're
pretty
happy
with
how
that
went.
I
think
that,
of
course,
there
as
I
mentioned,
other
cities
did
other
ways,
but
really
wanting
to
you
know,
put
it
out
there.
B
B
There
were
I
can't
even
I
can't
recall
one
particular
map
that
we
looked
at
that
created
a
majority
like
I
mentioned
earlier.
There
were
ones
that
created
some
red
flags
in
terms
of
the
opposite
direction,
but
not
one
in
particular
that
I
recall
that
we
looked
at
that
had
created
a
majority
and
then
in
terms
of
crossover
and
Coalition
Industries.
B
You
know
that
to
me
actually
and
I'm
I've
written
them
down,
because
I
want
to
look
into
it
a
little
bit
more,
but
one
of
the
things
that
I
think
is
kind
of
nice
and
like
what
we
did
with
pulling
together
the
downtown
into
one
particular
word.
Six,
and
you
know
it's
represented
in
I-
think
three
of
the
five
Maps
was.
We
did
actually
see
an
improvement
in
put
in
the
minority
vote
across.
B
You
know
a
majority
of
the
minority
races
when
pulling
together
those
and
not
having
it
represented
by
multiple,
so
I
will
say
there.
There
was
an
improvement
and
I
think
it
was
like
7.25
to
11.25
or
something
like
that.
So
not
huge,
but
an
improvement.
Sure.
N
N
Yeah
I
think
yeah
putting
together,
you
know,
Ward
6,
making
it
more.
Compact
is
a
good
option.
Of
course,
I
don't
know
if
it
saved
downtown
business
owners,
for
instance,
might
want
three
versus
one,
but
yeah
I
think
there's
advantages
either
way
on
that
and
so
yeah.
That's
that's
all
I
had
really
just
some
general
questions
like
that.
So
I
appreciate
it.
Thank.
A
You,
council,
member
Walsh,.
C
Thank
you,
Mr
Mayor,
Leslie,
first
of
all,
fantastic
job
and
and
really
when
you
get
into
the
fantastic
job
of
it.
When
you
start
talking
about
this,
I
see,
excitement
in
you
on
this
and,
and
it
seems
like
you,
you
just
really
get
excited
about
this
and
the
work
that
you've
done,
and
that's
just
it's
outstanding
to
see
from
somebody
that
they
really
seem
to
enjoy
their
work
and
really
enjoy
a
project
that
they're
working
on
or
are
excited
to
see
it
come
to
fruition
and
and
so
just
very
nice
job.
C
And
Maps
it's
about
the
people
yeah,
so
my
my
question
and
this
kind
of
goes
to
city
manager
and
you
and
everything
and
looking
at
these
Maps
as
something
you
touched
on
of
future
growth.
C
Do
we
anticipate
I
would
say
in
the
next
year
two
years,
five
years,
the
city
looking
to
Annex
additional
land,
an
additional
neighborhoods
and
stuff
like
that.
H
Yeah
definitely
and
one
of
the
biggest
annexation
I
guess,
plans
that
we
have
currently
is
executing
pre-existing
utility
agreements,
so
those
are
in
play
currently.
H
But
then,
as
we
look
at
other
parts
of
the
community,
we
we
definitely
see
areas
of
growth,
for
our
new
infrastructure
needs
would
likely
be
requested
by
a
developer.
Okay,.
C
And
with
that
knowledge,
looking
at
the
the
existing
that
we
have,
how
has
that
been
taken
again
into
the
maps?
Were
you
able
to
even
look
at
that
and
bring
that
into
the
maps
any
for
these
plants?
Yeah.
B
So
one
of
the
I
guess
blessings
of
it
all
is
that
Troy
is
in
public
works
and
is
our
GIS
guy
across
the
board
and
all
the
things
that
we
do
hope.
B
There's
not
a
number
two
I
think
he's
training,
a
guy
that
is
pretty
great
but
I'm
not
wanting
to
make
light
of
all
that
he
handles,
but
so
he
he
looked
at
a
lot
of
those
I'm,
not
going
to
say
that
you
know
he
went
in
and
looked
at
all
of
the
potential
annexation
agreements,
but
everything
that
he
was
is
aware
of
and
then
also
in
running
it
past
his
peers.
We
were
mindful
of
those.
B
The
other
thing
is
that
I
think
is
great
and
and
councilmember
Ward
helped
me
with
this
is
all
of
these
plans
are
at
four
percent
or
a
four
percent
or
less
right,
and
so,
even
if
it
was
the
six
percent
that
I
said
no
I've
apologized
to
Matthew.
That
still
allows
for
growth
right,
like
with
the
statute
requiring
that
we'd
be
no
more
than
10
percent.
We
still
are
well
under
where
we
need
to
be
so
we'll
be
able
to
account
for
that.
B
Now,
I
I
do
hope
that
you
know
somebody
is
back
at
the
table
doing
this
in
10
years
and
we've
had
way
more
growth
than
the
10.
You
know
something
like
the
25
percent
the
ward
8
has
experienced,
but
yes,
that's
kind
of
a
long
answer
to
your
question,
but
those
they
were
mindful
of
those
I'm,
not
sure
if
it's
all
of
them,
but
we
are
well
positioned
for
it.
No
matter
what.
C
Okay,
the
last
thing
I
have
and
you've
mentioned
him
first
name
a
couple
times
who
Matthew.
B
B
M
Thank
you
mayor
again,
I
want
to
add
my
thanks
to
you
know
the
chorus
of
thanks.
You
know
to
you
and
Billy
and
Troy
for
doing
all
this
careful
work.
It
was
just
great
to
look
at
these
Maps.
Having
never
done
that
before
you
know
it
was
really.
It
was
really
educational
for
me
to
sort
of
see
how
the
city's
laid
out
and
I
think
this
evening.
One
one
of
our
goals
is
to
provide
Direction
on
where
we're
going
to
go
next
with
potential
voting
at
the
next
council
meeting.
B
Yeah
am
I,
okay,
just
speak
to
that.
So
in
talking
with
Deputy
city
manager,
who
is
away
enjoying
his
vacation,
he
had
asked
that
we
could.
If
we
can
get
potential
Direction,
we
would
be
prepared,
as
the
city
manager
was
saying
earlier,
in
the
meeting
to
bring
back
a
map
if
we
thought
or
two
or
whatnot
at
the
next
meeting,
which
is
on
July
25th.
M
Okay
right
well,
in
that
case,
I
guess
I'd,
like
just
to
begin
by
saying:
I
I
want
to
trust
the
expertise
of
the
city
staff
and
I
appreciate
you
know
the
ranking
recommendations
and
particularly
I,
know
actual
firsthand
that
there
will
be
growth
in
ward
3
in
the
coming
years.
M
I
know
there
are
projects
underway
out
there
and
and
planned
so
I
really
want
to
advocate
for
supporting
plan
two
which
allows
the
most
growth
for
that
Ward
and
keeps
the
population
more
equal
across
the
nine
wards.
Thank
you,
I
agree
and.
K
You
mayor
I'm
interested
Leslie
because
you
spend
so
much
time.
Looking
at
this
I
was
thinking
about
the
nature
of
the
population
growth.
How
would
you
account
for
say
the
significant
growth
in
Ward
8
and
the
less
you
know
significant
depletion
in
Ward
seven,
and
is
this
the
kind
of
thing
that
you
that
might
happen
more
and
more
as
we
go
forward?
K
B
Yeah
I
think,
as
you
said,
no
crystal
ball
to
know
where
we're
going
and
that
we
hope
for
growth,
but
I
mean
it's
apparent,
not
just
in
numbers
right,
but
in
being
out
on
that,
the
east
side
of
Bloomington
that
there's
growth
happening
there,
the
Precinct
shapes
right
are
out
of
our
hands.
In
that
sense,
the
Bloomington
Election
Commission
determines
our
precincts
and
to
comment
to
that.
Just
as
a
side
note,
they
also
will
be
doing
Jeff.
B
Maybe
we
can
speak
to
it
a
little
bit
more
new
precincts
or
in
a
I'm,
not
sure
how
quickly
we
know
it's
going
to
happen.
Steve
Martin,
their
attorney
might
be
able
to
tell
us
more
Jeff
might
know,
but
there
has
been
conversation,
I
know
with
Troy
and
with
Jeff
about
the
precincts
maps
that
will
be
realigned
in
the
goal.
At
least.
The
way
it's
been
relayed
to
me
is
that
they
will
try
to
realign
or
Draw
the
precincts
within
the
words
as
you
would
approve
them.
B
So
you
know
we
won't
be
back
at
the
table.
Hopefully
fingers
crossed
next
year.
I'm
doing
this,
but
that's
kind
of
you
know
the
take
on
the
precinct
side.
You
know
and
the
growth
side
I
think
our
goals
are
just
to
go
as
low
on
the
population
deviation
as
we
can
in
the
sense
of
that
87.42,
and
so
from
that
sense
plan
two
is
the
one
that
that
meets
the
population
deviation
out
of
the
ones
presented
and
I
want
to
be
clear
that
that's
just
the
ones
that
are
presented.
K
Thank
you
for
your
your
work
on
this
and
it
it
will
be
important
just
to
keep
an
eye
on
representation
across
all
of
our
Awards
as
we
move
forward,
especially
given
the
the
importance
that
the
city
has
placed
on
ensuring
that
there
are
representative
voices,
so
I
appreciate
your
efforts.
Thank
you.
D
B
L
Yes,
I'd
like
to
just
clarify
something
with
regard
to
map
number
three,
so
this
is
the
one
map
that
has
the
vertical
option,
as
opposed
to
the
horizontal
option.
Is
that
that's
correct.
B
B
So
out
of
the
staff
presented
ones,
this
is
the
one
that
has
the
the
vertical
alignment.
If
we
pop
back
to
plan
one,
which
is
the
minimal
moves,.
B
It's
kind
of
a
combo
right,
it's
it's
a
playoff
of
what
our
current
is.
I
would
call
it.
You
know
more
horizontal
because
of
the
way
that
it
kind
of
stretches
across
with
the
orange.
But
then
you
see
the
pink
diet
dialed
down
and
if
you
go
to
the
public
plan,
please
you'll
see
that
same
bottom
corner.
B
You
know
kind
of
is
more
similar
to
I
guess
what
I
would
call
plan
one.
So
yes,
Plan
Three
has
that
more
compact
vertical.
L
B
L
B
So
it's
it's
almost
nothing
yeah
they're,
and
that
was
what
I
was
commenting
to
earlier.
A
lot
of
these.
They
I
mean
they
get
within
a
tenth
of
a
point
of
each
other
and
similar
to
you
know
when
we
were
talking
about
the
the
race
disparities
earlier,
you
know.
Yes,
I
am
I.
If
I
move
something
around,
it
might
take
one
from
this
minority,
but
if
it
gave
it
to
the
other
minority
and
didn't
create
a
you
know,
a
delusion
in
any
sense,
it
makes
it
more
difficult.
B
L
If
we
set
up
this.
If
we
go
with
plan
two,
we
are
setting
ourselves
up
again
for
this
whole
East
versus
West,
divide
and
I.
Entreat
you
to
reconsider
that
the
West
Side
interests
oftentimes
are
different
from
many
areas
of
the
east
side
and
that
we
we
just
can't
lose
some
kind
of
balance
in
that
way.
B
One
of
the
things
if
I
could
so
when
we
were
talking
about
the
difference
between
plan
three
and
and
two
one
of
the
things
we
we
focused
on
the
bottom
South,
so
the
the
bottom
right
with
words,
one
and
two
being
in
vertical
versus
horizontal.
One
of
the
things
we
didn't
talk
about
is
the
upper
right
hand,
corner
with
maps
five,
let's
see
five,
nine
and
three.
So
three,
five:
nine,
and
that's
where
we
were
talking
about
that.
B
The
one
thing
that
two
and
four
or
two
does
is
that
it
brings
Ward
three
into
a
population
of
9102
rather
than
in
two.
You
see
it
at
eight
thousand
five
hundred
twenty
six,
so
that
that
potential
growth
that
was
considered
there
is
different
and
then
also
it
keeps
some
larger
subdivisions
that
are
divided
amongst
have
multiple
Awards.
B
So
there
is
a
difference
with
two
and
three
and
we
can
Phil,
if
you
wouldn't
mind
going
to
three
and
then
so,
if
we,
if
we
pay
attention
to
the
upper
right
hand,
corner
light,
blue
red
and
light
green
and
then
go
backwards
to
two
there's
just
a
little
bit
of
a
cleanup.
That
happens
there
as
well
that
we
hadn't
addressed
when
we
were
talking
about
the
horizontal
versus
the
the
vertical
and
yeah.
Like
you
said
it's
it's
the
population
change
the
the
thought
on
future
growth.
B
A
Okay,
oh
see.
C
Do
you
happen
to
have
a
layover
that
we
could
take
map
two
lay
it
over
the
top
of
map.
Three
lay
it
over
the
top
of
map
four
and
and
help
visualize
the
differences
just
in
the
layout
of
the
maps
with
the
colors
and
the
lines
might
be
kind
of
difficult
to
do.
But
I
didn't
know
if
you
happen
to
have
any
type
of
layover.
B
I
don't
tonight,
but
it's
definitely
something
if
say
you
know
we
heard
we
were
between
two
and
three
or
something
like
that,
and
then
we
wanted
to
dive.
You
know
in
further
at
the
next
meeting
before
a
vote
came
or
something
like
that
it
we
have
the
capability
of
laying
them
over
another
thing
that
you
know
we
talked
about
Troy
and
I
was.
If
you
wanted
to
see
you
know
the
Precinct.
You
know
differences
in
the
in
that
sense
too,
with
that
layover
and
how
that
happens.
B
C
Okay,
if
we
were
to
vote
want
to
vote
next
week,
but
we
need
to
make
a
motion
tonight
to
say
let's
vote
on
this
next
week
or.
A
D
You
so
when
you're
talking
about
the
population
deviation
percentages,
those
are
averages.
Is
that
correct?
Yes,.
D
So
that
when
you
look
beyond
the
average
and
you
look
at
the
distribution
by
Ward,
that's
where
you
get
into
trickiness
with
an
eight
percent
population
growth
in
ward
3,
which
is
very
conservative,
probably
in
light
of
just
things
that
I've
been
advised
in
a
couple
of
different
precincts.
D
That
Ward
would
already
be
over
ten
thousand.
So
I
I,
don't
know
to
council
member
Ward's
perspective.
If
there's
some
type
of
a
you
know
a
hybrid
there,
between
what
you've
done
on
the
east
side,
with
the
cleanup
that
you're
showing
on
plan
two
and
the
decisions
in
the
other
areas,
because
when,
when
we're
talking
about
it
being
just
a
fractional
difference,
that's
with
everything
aggregated,
not
with
the
awards
drawn
with
their
specific
boundaries.
B
And
I
don't
want
to
create
more
work
that
might
not
be
needed,
but,
as
you
alluded
to
you
know,
one
of
the
things
that
we
could
do
is
I
think
that
we
actually
did
have
a
map
that
kept
the
upper
right
hand
corner
this
way
and
then
had
the
bottom
left
hand
corner
in
the
vertical.
B
And
so
you
know,
if
that's
something
that
hey
when
you
know
bring
it
back
on
Monday.
But
we
would
like
to
see
it
in
that
and
that
would
throw
a
sixth
map
in.
But
then
you
could
also
we
could
do
a
layover
comparison
with
two
and
three
and
then
move
forward
from
there.
G
You
know
I
understand
the
comments
about
East
forests,
West
and
I.
Don't
think
that's
ever
going
to
go
away
for
me
if
my
ward
changes
in
shape
it
really
doesn't
matter.
I
could
also
say
word
two
isn't
orphan.
G
You
know
we
don't
really
have
a
lot
of
growth.
We
don't
have
any
it's
a
food
desert.
You
know,
there's
no
retail,
no
groceries,
nothing,
no
bus
service,
so
you
know
we
also
have
knees
and
the
the
population
distribute.
Not
distribution
deviation,
really
won't
change.
You
know,
like
you
had
said,
each
word
is
what
30
16
as
far
as
the
population
variation.
G
Is
true,
if
you
take
away
East
Veterans
from
Ward
2.
I'm
I'm,
losing
the
high
density,
low-income
housing,
Tracy,
Drive
area
and
I'm,
picking
up
the
West
Oakland
Alexander
population,
which
is
basically
mirrors
but
again,
I
think
that
Ward
2
is
starts
out.
So
far
is
the
fact
that
we
don't
have
any
commercial,
it's
all
residential,
all
Compact
and
a
lot
of
that
green
stuff,
there's
nothing
there.
So
thank
you.
B
A
H

you

and
