A
C
It
yeah
glad
you
could
join
us
just
so
we
can
do
introductions,
I'm
matt.
C
A
fellow
spea
slash,
o'neill
grad
and
I'm
the
chair
of
the.
C
Because
we
have
a
council
meeting
coming
up
at
6
30
and
probably
need
a
few
minutes
in
between,
but
that's
okay,
this
the.
C
And
your
application
and
if
you
don't
mind,
maybe
just.
C
Starting
out
telling
us
a
little
bit
about
yourself
and
your
interest
in
the
commission
and
and
then
we'll,
probably
ask
you
a
few
questions
and
see
if
you
have
any
questions
for
us
yeah.
Thank
you
guys
so
much.
I
appreciate.
B
The
opportunity
to
speak
about
it
so
just
to
introduce
myself
my
name.
B
That
this
is
an
amazing
opportunity
to.
B
Bloomington
about
how
I
could
use
my.
B
Background
or
my
personal
experience
and
provide
assistance
in
any
policy.
B
Decisions
or
program
implementation
for
environmental.
B
Reasons
or
all
kinds
of
environmental
reasons.
C
Sorry,
I
was
trying
to
admit
it
myself.
Thank
you
as
a
preliminary
matter.
C
It's
worth
checking,
I
guess
the
environmental
commission.
C
Typically
meets
on
the
third
thursday
of
the
month
in
the
evening.
C
Time
with
a
lot
of
our
you
know,
volunteer
boards
and
commissions,
so
making
sure
folks
are
available
and
committed
to
those.
C
Is
important
and
then
the
other
question
we
were
kind
of
wondering.
C
That
someone
had
left,
though,
generally.
C
Speaking
when
someone
serves
for
such
a
short
period
of
time
like
that,
it
would
be
kind
of
normal
course
of
business
to.
C
Reappoint
them
for
a
second,
you
know
two
year
term
and
wondering.
C
C
Plans
or
you
know
your
ability
to
serve
on
the.
C
Commission,
you
know
over
the
next
year
or
two
I.
C
Would
say
yes,
I,
yes,
I
I.
B
Sorry,
the
I'm
fully
prepared
to
make
this
time.
B
Commitment
and
make
this
commitment
to
not
only
the
commission
but
the.
B
Community
I
have
already
moved
to
bloomington,
so
I'm.
B
Been
very
different,
honestly
from
where
I've
lived
before
so
it's
nice
to
explore,
and
so.
B
Yeah,
I'm
I'm
completely
happy
with
taking
this
as
an
opportunity
if
it.
B
Expires
in
january
to
prove
my
prove
that
I
would
make
an
impactful.
B
Member
to
the
commission
and
have
my
contributions.
B
The
determiner
of
whether
or
not
I'm
invited
back
or
anything,
I'm
very.
A
So
what
what
attracted
you
to
the
environmental
commission
in
particular,
I.
A
A
B
Reading
the
types
of
activities
that
they.
B
A
there
are
so
many
titles,
a
greenish
region
corps.
Member
for
the.
B
B
With
residents
on
sustainability-
and
so
I
think
that's
something
that
really.
B
But
I
love
teaching
people
and
educating
people
on
how
they
can
do.
D
On
the
commission
yeah
overall,
I
think
that
I,
without
any.
B
Prior
knowledge
on
things
within
the.
B
City
of
bloomington,
I
think
that
what
everyone
can
strive
towards.
B
Of
the
city
of
bloomington,
during
my
time
at
the
city
of
highland
park,.
B
I
really
pushed
for
an
hr
initiative
to
take
to
not
only
educate
their.
B
Fix
the
fix
a
natural
area,
but
if
we
we
also
can
be
more
sustainable
in
the.
A
So
that's
that's
an
important
part
and
probably
the
most.
A
Development
in
bloomington
yeah,
so
during
my.
B
A
lot
of
work
working
with
people
on
ravines
and
moraine,
so
very.
B
Steep
slope,
and
so
I
had
a
lot
of
tasks
involving.
B
To
give
input
on
their
attempts
to
what's
the
proper
word
for.
B
Input
on,
in
addition,
with
more
general
land
use
of
bloomington.
B
I
have
a
very
strong,
I
have
a
very
strong
emotions
about
not.
B
And
knock
it
all
down
and
build
on
it
just
being
that
voice.
B
B
And
kind
of
just
have
that
voice
for
protecting.
B
The
loss
of
habitats,
great
thanks,
good,
to
hear
more
about.
C
C
Have
a
like
a
committee
among
the
commissioners
who
kind
of
work
on
these.
C
Development
and
planning
issues
and
we
usually
see
their
memos
when
we
look.
C
At
materials
and
actually
in
in
talking
with
the
staff
liaison
today,
city
stafford
is
under
the
commission.
C
Perspective,
which
I
think
would
be
great
since
the
commission
is
advisory
to
both
the
city
staff
and,
of
course,
the
council.
C
Moment
and
just
some
logistic
things.
C
They're
also
kind
of
doing
some
following
up
and
tracking
on
some
of
our
plans
like
the
sustainability
action
plan
and
the
bloomington
environmental
action
plan,
and
we
also
have
a
climate
action
plan.
C
Forthcoming
so
lots
of
kind
of
plans
and
then.
C
Highlighting
you
know
how
we're
implementing
them,
where
we're
falling
short,
how
we
can
do
better
and
that's
another
task
that
they've
been
working
on
just
kind
of
fyi
and
the
one
thing
I
the.
C
C
Typically,
the
council
takes
the
recommendations
of
committees
and
appoints
members
to
the
commission
as.
C
As
recommended,
we
didn't
interview
one
other
candidate
for
this
round.
C
Discussing
with
the
staff
ways
on
today,
we
talked
about
how
to.
C
C
B
I
I
am
curious
and
given
that,
if
there
was
if
the
commission
didn't.
B
Is
to
these
meetings
now
I
can
just
be
a
citizen
and
be
an
active
citizen
to.
B
Many
opportunities
you
think
there
are
for
that.
C
Are
have
public
meetings
and
would
probably
be
covering
a
lot
of
topics
that
are
of
interest
to
you
in
particular.
If
you
know
we,
we
didn't
appoint
you
at
this
time
attending
some
meetings
as
a
member
of
the
public,
where
you
can
also
comment
or
or
add
your
input,
it
goes
a
long.
C
Way
to
demonstrate
your
interest
and-
and
you
know
it's
fairly
irregular-
that
that
opportunities
pop
up
to
serve
to
serve
the
city
in
this
way.
C
So
yeah,
if,
if
you
didn't
get
appointed
at
this
time,
I
think
just
continuing
to
stay
engaged.
You
know
you'd
probably
find
yourself
with
an
opportunity
in
the
very
near
future,
so
yeah,
I
think
we'll
probably
have
to.
C
Wrap
it
up
there
since
we're
kind
of
on
a
tight
timeline,
but
very
much
appreciate
you
interviewing.
It
was
great
to
get
to
know
a
bit
about
you.
C
And
and
your
interest
in
the
commission
and
either
way
you
should
be
hearing.
C
From
us
from
the
clerk's
office
in
the
next
week
or
two
awesome,
thank
you
guys
so
much
yeah.
B
C
Okay,
so
we
have
to
discuss
an
action
memo.
Should
we
just
do.
C
So
we
don't
meet
again.
Yes,
I
feel
like
daniel
and
bailey.
C
Are
both
qualified
candidates
to
to
serve
on
the
commission?
How
do
you.
A
Yeah,
I
agree
they
would
both
be.
You
know,
they're
both
qualified.
A
Well,
I
don't
know,
I
think
you
know,
I
think
they
both
have.
A
Something
to
offer
bailey
seemed
a
little
more
a
little
more
mature,
maybe.
