B
Lots
of
thumbs
up
very
well,
shall
we
jump
straight
into
the
agenda.
C
Think
can
everybody
see
the
agenda
yep,
okay,
yeah,
so
take
it
away.
Brian.
C
I
thought
we
got
that
posted
it's
it
yeah!
Well,
after
we
do
the.
B
B
All
right,
karen:
do
you
have
karen?
We
have
to
do
a
roll
call,
vote,
yeah.
C
The
402,
which
is
our
one
percent
fund,.
C
403,
for
those
of
you,
the
the
newer.
C
To
do
a
postcard
project
and
for
dave's
interest.
This
is
leftover
money.
C
From
that,
so
this
is
a
non-uh.
This
is
a
non
once
this
money's
gone.
C
This
money's
gone
so
this
is
3961.
C
B
C
Got
it
on
grid
view,
so
so
yeah
so
people's
park.
C
And
different
lifes
so
originally
in
the
late
90s.
C
Changing
mural
eva's
contract
was
actually
it
commences.
C
No,
no
public
art
is
truly
permanent.
Thinking
about
how.
C
Break
the
color
barrier
in
the
30s
so
but
it
was
obviously
a
mural.
C
Amazing
kind
of
history
of
people's
park
since
the
fire
bombing,
the
building.
C
Was
deemed
unsafe,
it
was
knocked
down
and.
C
An
urban
park
so
that's
kind
of
the.
C
General
history
of
the
site,
the
kind
of
public-private.
C
Have
a
plan,
I
think
I
wanted
to
open
this
up
to
the
arts
commission
for
us
to
discuss,
but
I've
spoken
with
nick
and
briony.
C
Community
wants,
as
well
as
we
tried
this
with
switch.
C
As
well
as
engaging
various
community
stakeholders,
I've.
C
This
approach
to
see
what
they
would
think
I've
had
a
couple
inquiries
out
to
and
spoken
with,
iu
first
nations
about.
C
Some
language
and
thinking
about
you
know,
equity,.
C
Through
that
that
particular
community
so.
C
C
Because
the
contract
is
almost
almost
over
we're
not
doing
repairs.
C
Term
in
terms
of
painting
over
the
what
was
written
on
there
so
right.
H
And
I
think
just
obviously
it
being
a
private
private.
H
Trying
to
work
with
the
property
to
owners,
property
owners.
E
So
I
had
a
protest.
The
past
few
days
have
been.
E
Really
intense,
thank
you
to
those
that
have
reached.
E
Out
to
me,
but
we
last
night.
E
After
the
protest,
I
spoke
with
two
of
the
organizers
actually.
E
About
that
space
and
I'm
meeting
with
one
of
them
tomorrow.
E
But
we
had
been
talking
quite
a
bit
about
the
about
people's
park.
E
And
they,
when
I
told
them,
I
was
on
the
arts
commission,
and
that
we
were.
E
Be
able
to
to
give
the
black
community
like
a.
E
Chance
to
reclaim
that
space
and
because
I
don't
think
I
fully.
E
Realized
that
it
was
the
garage,
the
bike
shop
that
owns
that
wall,
but.
E
It's
a
public
private,
prop
partnership.
We
don't
actually
have
to.
E
Commission
and
seek
out
black
artists
in
our.
C
I
I
can
look
into
that.
I
I
this
is
gonna
sound,
totally
absurd.
C
We're
in
people
might
say
that
that's.
C
E
Was
a
public
private
prop
partnership?
We
didn't,
we
did
an
open.
I
The
bike
shop
or
whose
property
it
is
saying
that
well
I
this
I
want
this.
I.
C
Yeah
that
I
mean
that's
one
of
the
challenges
with
public
private
partnerships.
I
think
they
understand
ann
and
bob
from
what
I've.
C
Narratives
and
theme
works.
That
is
one
potential
scary
thing.
C
Commission
work,
but
that's
why
we
have
shifted
to
doing
the
open
call.
C
C
And
we
we're
we're
not
in
the
business
of
censorship.
You
know
we're.
C
Key
aspect
in
our
community,
but
I
think
also
there's
a
lot
of
weight.
Put.
C
On
that,
because
it
is
visual
right,
I
think
a
lot
of
communities
right
now
are
going
through
this
with
a
prime
example
of
criticism.
As
the.
C
Dc
mayor,
putting
black
lives
matter
and.
C
Renaming
the
street
that,
but
then
also
not.
C
Actually,
having
a
conversation
about
you
know.
C
Matter
over
time,
as
addressing
these
kind
of
concerns,.
I
Bombing
or
that
that's
that
would
be
hard
to.
C
C
So
we
can
be
very
explicit
one,
so
I
have
like
I've
just
been
taking
notes.
C
Let
me
try
to
find
what
I
have
real
quick.
I
You
know,
if
I
I
think
specifically
if
we
say
we
want.
H
H
History
of
this
individual
site
put
extra
import
on
this.
H
An
rfq
that
is
reviewed
with
the
property
owner
in
advance.
You
know
I.
H
Think
that,
whatever
process
we
have
for
reviewing
this,
I
think
you
know
we'll
be
extra.
I.
H
H
H
Discussions
with
say,
brian
and
I
I
know
shawn
has
had
multiple.
H
Conversations
with
the
the
property
owners,
you
know,
because
I
think
that
that
the
balance
that
we
want
to
strike
is.
H
Is
appropriate
to
the
site?
You
know
that,
isn't
you
know
just
I
don't
know.
H
Overly
disposable,
you
know
it,
it
doesn't
need
to
be
a
visit.
H
Bloomington
advertisement,
you
know
at
all
times
and
I
think.
H
That
you
know,
I
think,
the
balance
to.
H
It
can
it
can
make
people
uncomfortable.
H
Know,
and
and
going
to
you
know
specifically.
H
And
you
know
entice,
you
know
a
lot
of
viable
reactions.
H
H
Of
get
us
to
this
point:
yes
yeah,
okay,
next,
rachel
and
then.
B
E
Protesters
the
second
thing
is
beyond
what
ends.
E
Yeah,
so
can
we
partner
with
iu
professors.
C
Signage
when
there's
there's
some
renovation,
that's
gonna
happen
to.
C
C
Moment
and
yeah,
so
the
chamber's
been.
C
C
Concerned
about
the
just
the
current
state
of
affairs.
C
That
kind
of
mindset
I
get
that
it
was
just
mentioned.
E
B
Commissioners,
I
want
to
say
something
I
think
like
I.
J
Need
to
focus
on
that
it's
the
moment
and
we
need
to
support
the
community.
J
That
it's
not
not
have
been
supported
for
so
long.
J
The
wall
may
suffer
consequences
depending
of
whatever
it
happens,.
C
Legally,
it's
august
31st
would
be
the
soonest
we
could
do.
C
Anything
based
on
the
current
contract,
but
I
don't
think.
C
Discussion
with
you
all
engaging
some
other.
C
C
Those
kinds
of
things,
so
I
don't
have
an
updated
timeline.
It's.
C
The
community
and
kind
of
you
know
us
kind
of.
C
Three,
but
no
more
than
five,
probably
and
just
go
from
there
and.
C
C
Yeah,
well
I
mean,
I
think
they
I
haven't
spoken
with
them
in
about.
C
C
L
Oh
yeah
thanks
bernie
yeah.
This
has
been
super
interesting
as
a
newcomer.
L
To
the
town
who
just
aren't
deeply
rooted
here,
that
that
would
be.
L
Been
a
very
interesting
place
to
see
the
discourse
of
street
art,
it's.
L
Public
discourse
happening
with
with
spray
paint
and
graffiti.
B
Yeah
sure
so
I
wanted
to
support
what
sean
was
saying
about
getting
the.
M
That
would
be
that
could
go
towards
that.
That.
M
Community
healing
effort,
especially
if
we're
talking
about
the
history.
M
Of
that
location,
while
we're
discussing
possibilities
of
what
goes
up.
M
And
I'm
I'm
I'm
game
to
like
brainstorm.
What.
C
Deep
cuts
on
reddit,
but
it's
been
interesting
in
the
community
too.
That.
C
And
you
know
for
us
as
well
like
we,
it
was
interesting.
We
got
some.
C
Criticisms
about
nita
abby
chanel's
work
on
the
graduate
which.
C
Process
and
maybe
really
kind
of
doubling
down
those
efforts,
rather
than
you
know,
focusing
on
the
finished
project.
And
I
think
that
that
to
me
was
an.
C
C
This
digital
platform
and
what
that
looks
like
for
all.
C
With
the
general
approach
that
I
talked
about,
I
can
start
to
kind
of.
C
Go
I
can
kind
of
firm
that
which
would
be
like
I
said.
J
I
think
that
the
fact
that
life
black
lives.
C
The
kind
of
you
know
I
have
documentation
of
the
murals
over
the.
C
Yep
I
have
I
I
don't
know,
then
the
last
count
I
had.
C
Fourth,
street
we're
moving
forward.
Construction
has
begun.
C
So
we
should
get
the
paper
on
that
switchyard.
C
I'm
waiting
in
an
update
for
rachel
in
that
group
on
the
final
designs.
H
Some
of
this
over
email
sean
is
there
anything
you
need
in
the
very
short
term.
You
know
ahead
of
that
meeting
friday
to
help
prep.
C
C
I
have
put
those
on
pause
because
of
other.
C
August
is
one
supposedly:
the
transfer
will.
C
Be
complete,
and
I
know
that
we've
gotten
a
lot
of.
C
Bloomington
has
written
a
letter
where
gallery
walk,
has
written
a
letter
so
we're
getting
a
lot
of
those
kinds
of.
C
B
H
To
oh,
you
can
go
well
short
version.
Is.
H
Quentin's
waiting
on
me
to
to
to
to
add
some
to
it,
like
basically.
H
And
it's
it's
different
stages
of
evolution.
They
gave
us
some.
H
Good
insight
on
the
process
involved
in.
H
And
basically,
looking
for
some
good
specific.
H
Buzzwords
and
concepts
for
the
you
know
for
for
council
and
and
the.
H
City
but
quentin
did
the.
B
Before
the
next
meeting
yeah,
indeed,
okay,
questions
regarding
the
waldron.
B
Hold
on
on
that
for
just
a
second
one
thing
to
consider
for
everybody.
B
The
end
of
the
year,
those
will
obviously
not
be.
B
Happening
with
my
dogs,
just
to
figure
out,
you
know
if
we
want
to.
H
Like
I'm
curious
how
many
people
on
the.
B
But
I
think
it
went
untapped
and
if
you
remember
from
the
strategic.
B
Of
participating
of
just
doing
a
good
job
kind
of
thing.
B
Perhaps
you
know
community
engagement
and
other
things
that
could
come
from.
C
Well,
I
think
also
too
the
the
original
awards
the
community
awards.
I.
C
Think
was
the
bloomington
area,
arts,
council,
and
it
was
their
kind
of
advocacy
moment.
It
was
a
way
to
generate
more.
C
C
Maybe
it's?
Maybe
it's
through
arts
night.
J
Definitely
consider
to
bring
it
back
if
we
are
going
to
split
the
groups.
I.
J
It
is
possible
to
do,
and
I
do
I
did
see
like.
J
Either
different
areas-
and
so
I
thought
it
was
very
interesting.
J
J
I
feel
that
it's
very
important
and
I
had
a
meeting
with
byron.
J
That
are
not
just
by
grants.
If
that
is
a
different
ways,
I
have.
J
Those
sponsors
and
the
artists
that
can.
J
I
don't
like
the
grand
idea,
it's
a
kind
of
complicated
for
many.
J
To
point
out
is
that
going
back
to
how
to
group.
B
Rachel,
we
kind
of
I
think,
spoken
about
that.
E
Similar
to
what
valeria
is
saying
back
when,
when
andy
was
the.
E
Dollars
that
from
businesses
that
can
then.
E
The
sense
that
technically.
E
The
arts
alliance
of
greater
bloomington.
E
Business
so
that's
kind
of
a
twofold
totally.
E
Agree
on
the
the
need
to
to
be
more
of
a.
E
Organizations
are
in
this
town.
I
have
a
question
about
the
education.
E
And
facilitating
an
advocacy,
but
what
exactly
do
you
mean
by.
E
E
Like
there's,
I
don't
know
like
partnering
with
the
iac
to
do
a
whole.
E
Whole
training
on
that
and
hosting
those,
but
not
having
us.
E
I
Here,
like
elliott,
maybe
a
few
years
extra,
but
not
much.
I
But
I
think
one
of
the
problems
that
bloomington
has
had
is
that
they've
had.
I
Comes
to
if,
if.
I
See
what
it
is
that
we
could
do
for
them
to
help
them.
I
Everybody
in
the
in
any
form
of
the
art
community
is.
I
Pretty
shot
without
any
outlets,
and
there
are
a.
I
Matter
of
of
of
reaching
out
and
trying
to
have.
I
That
that
we
can
do
I,
I.
I
Doing
small
things
on
how
to
set
up
a
business.
I
How
to
set
up
a
not-for-profit-
and
I
mean
there's
just
so
many.
I
Things
that
there's
some
that
that
that
I
think.
E
Sorry
there
was
an
echo.
I
agree
that,
like
there
definitely.
E
The
sense
that
I
just.
I
That's
all
that,
under
that
we
are
looking
at
the
things
that
we
we.
F
Of
you
all,
I
kind
of
do
feel
so
I
hit
a
bit
and
I
hear
rituals,
but.
F
F
F
Like
how
we
could
bring
in
community
members
to
talk
about.
F
Could
then
be
more
sustainable
right
like
if
we
say
we
want
to
host
four
community
dialogues
and
we
can
bring
in
outside
people
to.
F
Host
those
conversations
and
to
talk
about
the
role
of
public
art
in
the
in
the
city
of
bloomington.
F
F
Could
I
just
I
just
imagine
us
being
able
to
bring
in
so
many
different
people
to
lead
those
sort
of
dialogues
and.
B
Figuring
out,
you
know
what
happens
when
and
which
ones
are.
B
Who
says,
thank
you
and
I
have
one
more
question
for
you
and
that's
it
so
really
it
doesn't
require
a
whole.
B
Lot
of
legwork
any
other
comments
regarding
this.
J
Yeah,
I
want
to
add
it
to
this
and
yeah
quinton.
Thank
you
very
much
for.
J
That
you
really,
we
really
can
empower
local
artists
and.
J
How
can
we
empower
the
artists
to
educate
the.
J
Some
very
good
skills,
and
so
how
can
we
bring
it?
One
of
the
things.
J
We
can
think
about
how
can
we
fund
programs
that
will
educate.
J
To
encourage
that
we're
going
to
share
our
skills,
artists.
J
Let
this
artistic
community
flourish
in
bloomington.
That's
what
I'm
talking.
J
Grant
and
workshops,
and
things
like
that.
J
But
if
you
ask
me,
can
you
come
and
teach
youth
and
even
if
it's
for
free,
I.
J
J
Just
to
finalize,
I
want
to
make
very
clear.
J
That,
as
an
artist
bloomington
organizations,
never
paid
me.
J
Because
of
it's
more
convenient
to
bring
money
from.
J
And
be
funded
for
their
work.
So
that's
why
I'm
talking
about.
J
Nick,
I
I
think,
valeria,
I
think
everything
you're
saying.
H
I
get
it
conceptually
and
I
I
agree
with
it.
I
don't
know.
H
I
agree
that
you
know
one
of
the
scourges
of
society
is
arts.
H
So
I
agree
with
that.
I
think
the
thing
I'm
struggling
to.
H
Connect
is
exactly
what
what
our
role
is
in
that
like
when
I.
H
When
I
hear
you
talk,
I
I
hear
that,
like
thinking
about.
H
Grants
grants
and
the
one
percent
through
our
public
arts
committee,
those
are.
H
You
know,
maybe
it
is,
you
know
we
coordinate.
H
Seek
you
know,
sponsorship
or
whatever
else.
H
Lens
but
the
rest
requires
fundraising.
H
Which
is
a,
I
think,
a
huge
endeavor
for
us
and
and
probably
not
our
best.
H
What
I'm
trying
to
understand
is
if
I'm
grasping.
B
J
My
video,
yes,
I
think
that
it's
and
that's.
H
B
Something
that
I
talked
with
valeria
about
separately,
and
so
we
agreed
that
she
would
do
some
research.
B
Take
this
on
as
kind
of
like
her
her
research.
B
In
I'm
sure
karen
would
appreciate
that,
but
really.
K
Taken
very
differently
than
how
I
meant
it.
K
K
About
how
we're
gonna
do
things,
and
I
think
what
we
need
to
really
look
at.
K
Those
goals-
and
I
think
that
that's
what
our
meetings
will
be
about
and
how
we
go
about
that.
K
Community
engagement
and
etc.
I
think
it's
enough
just
to
say
these
are
going.
K
K
I
think
they
could
actually
be
two
documents.
I
think
we
can
have
an.
I
B
Wanted
to
say
something
yeah,
just
it
was
it's
more
of
a.
E
Question
for
valeria
in
thinking
about.
E
The
how
we
can
support
individual
artists.
E
Initially
interpreted
your
your
suggestion
as
being
very.
E
Understood,
okay,
so
we
are
down
to
five
minutes.
D
D
Point
during
the
meeting
someone
mentioned
the
idea
of
how.
D
Zoom
is,
is,
is
a
great
tool
and
I
I
totally
agree
in
every.
D
Time
to
to
make
time
to
cover
it's
a
happy
coincidence
of
the
city.
D
Council
being
on
break
right
now
and.
D
The
fact
that
you
guys
are
on
zoom,
so
I
hope
that
you'll
you'll
consider
at.
D
Access
to
meetings,
even
when
you're,
all
in
the
same
room.
D
So,
anyway,
thanks
thank
you
so
much
enjoy
listening
to.
D
B
Tonight
there
hasn't
really
been
that
much
update.
Okay,
I
was
just
gonna
say
I
found
it
absolutely
fascinating.
B
You
just
send
them
an
email
and
tap
into
them.
I'm
sure
everybody's
willing.
L
Pretty
incredible,
I
think
it's
it's
a
testament
to
the.
L
Work
y'all
have
been
doing
and
that
I've
largely
been
observing.
L
B
Any
other
ideas
or
needs,
or
just.
C
E
Have
been
done
with
a
white
lens
and
I
think.
E
Wary
of
that,
I
don't
know
how
I'd
be
interested
actually
to
hear
and
how.
E
From
the
articles
I've
read
yeah
I
would
agree.
I
know
I
made
some.
L
Kind
of,
like
very
literal,
verbal
kind
of
graffiti
culture
and.
L
Analog
version
of
social
media,
and
so
it's
I
don't
know
who
these.
M
It
complicates
that
that
mural
that
space,
because.
M
That
location
carries
with
it.
The
history.
M
That
the
other
spaces
didn't
necessarily
have
so.
M
We're
not
just
having
anybody
slap
it
on
the
wall,
but
we're
gonna
have
that
that
effort
put
in.
M
And
and
have
the
people
there?
Hopefully,
if
they
push
back,
we.
I
Is
that
history
does
give
context
and
that
that
is.
I
But
throughout
the
city,
when
you
travel.
I
Hadn't
happened
and
I
I
think
it.
G
Next,
I
I
totally
agree
with
all
that,
and
I.
H
Think
that
you
know
if,
if,
if
we're
talking
about.
H
Like
a
very
hyper
specific
thing
that
we
could
accomplish
through
the
end
of
this
year,
I
totally
agree
with
you
know
the
the
mural
at
people's
park.
I
think
maybe
sort
of
a
broader
concept.
H
Darn
strategic
plan
and
that
that
obviously,
but
I
think
that.
H
Earlier
quentin,
I
think,
basically
articulated.
H
H
We
make
sure
that
our
strategic
plan-
and
you
know
our.
H
Think
that,
like
you
know,
six
years
from
now
or
whatever,
when
none
of
us
are
on
this,
this
commission,
it's,
I
don't
think
we.
H
Really
care
as
much
whether
people
do
are
promoting
workshops
or.
E
Grant's
question
is
now:
okay,
sure
cool
yeah.
I
agree
with
what
everyone.
E
Said
earlier
essence,
I
said
it,
I
think
you
said
it
beautifully
for
here.
My
take
was
more
just
like
on.
What's.
E
Town-
and
I
don't
think
we
will,
my
grant
question
is
as.
E
And
everything
around
so
quickly,
sean,
I
haven't
heard
anything
about.
E
C
E
Me
know
how
I
can
help
as
grant's
chair.
I
want
to
be
able
to.
C
C
Let
me
look
this
up
real
quick.
I
think.
E
Up,
I
would
I
kind
of
want
to
get
a
feel
from
all
of
you.
I
would
like
to.
E
Figure
stuff
out,
but
in
august
next
month
I
would
love.
E
As
we
approach
fall,
grants
have
has
also
like
the
committee.
E
And
also
essence,
I
know
you've
expressed
interest.
E
Become
more
familiar
with
the
process
as
a
heads
up,
I
will
likely
I.
E
E
Amazing,
I
will
send
a
message
out
to
those.
C
E
Want
to
pick
those
meetings
up
again
and
at
least
start
the
conversations.
E
E
In
the
next
meeting,
so
yeah
just
is
everyone
cool
with.
E
The
commission,
but
I
have
accepted.
E
To
step
down
from
things,
so
I
still
want
to
be
involved
and.
B
Has
been
done
so,
let's
jump
into
commissioner.
