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
B
A
D
Thank
you
and
John
yeah.
A
A
A
All
right,
so
we
definitely
have
Quorum
and
good
attendance.
Thank
you
all
for
making
it.
We
can
go
ahead
and
jump
onto
the
fourth
well
yeah.
Fourth
item.
Nope
third
item
on
our
agenda
is
approval
of
the
agenda,
so
this
was
distributed
by
email
about
five
minutes
ago,
but
was
also
on
the
share
Drive.
Since
this
past
Friday,
the.
A
E
A
So
seeing
no
objection
the
agenda
is
adopted,
I
will
end
the
screen
share,
so
we
can
have
the
zoom
screen
and
we
can
go
on
to
approval
of
the
meeting
minutes.
These
will
be
for
the
December
13th
regular
meeting,
which
are
also
available
on
the
shared
Drive.
Are
there
any
corrections
to
the
minutes
as
drafted.
A
All
right
seeing
none,
then
those
are
approved
and
we
can
go
on
to
public
comment.
So
each
member
of
the
public
will
have
three
minutes
to
speak.
I
see
there
are
no
members
in
the
room.
If
there
is
anyone
on
Zoom
who
would
like
to
speak
for
public
comment.
Just
please
indicate
your
desire
to
do
so
by
using
the
raise
hand,
function
or
alternatively,
typing
into
the
chat
if
needed,
and
we
will
just
call
on
anyone
in
the
order
that
they
request
so
I
see
no
takers
in
zoom
and
no
one
in
the
room.
A
So
we
can
move
right
onto
report
from
the
acting
chair,
so
this
will
be
a
little
bit
lengthy
just
to
forewarn
you,
but
has
good
content.
So
I'm
going
to
start
with
the
summary
of
our
executive
committee
meeting
that
we
held
just
this
last
week,
so
we
discussed
I,
guess
primarily
a
few
ideas
for
ways
in
which
we
could
help
I,
guess,
strengthen
and
improve
the
operations
and
capacity
of
the
commission
so
just
kind
of
a
quick
summary.
A
A
Maybe
some
amendments
to
the
bylaws
with
potential
addition
of
member
expectations
and
just
maybe
refining
it
and
see,
seeing
if
there's
anything
procedural
that
can
be
improved
in
the
same
way
that
we
had
done
before
with
the
annual
meeting.
So
just
wanted
to
mention
those
things
we
can
take
them
up
a
new
business.
If
anybody
wants
to
talk
about
those,
anyone
is
welcome
to
connect
with
any
of
the
officers
either
after
the
meeting
or
by
email,
and
then
we'd
be
glad
to
have
input
on
those
things
and
kind
of
just
help.
A
Build
capacity
in
our
ability
to
to
do
good
work,
also
I
wanted
to
touch
on
the
2023
commissioner
appointments
because
I
know
there
are
a
lot
of
terms
that
expire
on
this
particular
meeting.
I
know
for
sure
that
or
I
guess
Nigel.
You
would
mentioned
that.
Alicia
is
not
serving
a
subsequent
term.
I,
don't
know
about
gosh
I,
think
any
of
the
other
members
I
haven't
heard.
Anything
back
on
I
was
going
to
check
in
with
Lauren
who
stepped
out,
but
maybe
ask
now
is
a
good
opportunity.
A
The
commissioner
appointments
for
this
or
I
guess
terms
that
expired
this
month.
Have
you
gotten
confirmation
from
any
other
members
apart
from
Alicia?
Who
is
not
going
to
be
serving
another
term
I
think
there
was
also.
E
There
were
a
couple
people
we
were
talking
about
that
haven't
been
attending
regularly
so
because
they're
also
not
present
at
this
meeting,
I'm
gonna
give
them
notice
that
they've
missed
too
many
meetings
at
this
point,
so
I
would
expect
that
we
probably
have
two
more
vacancies,
but
the
appointment,
letters
for
the
mayoral
appointments
should
have
already
gone
out
or
in
the
process
of
going
out
and
those
are
via
mail.
And
then,
as
that
happens,
the
commissioner
page
is
updated.
E
A
G
A
I'm
following
it
up
following
it
up
with
a
butt
to
make
it
clear
that
I
don't
intend
to
just
completely
stop
being
involved
with
the
commission.
I
was
involved
even
prior
to
being
appointed
to
it.
So
I
am
very
interested
in
making
sure
that
there's
a
good
handoff
to
the
next
chair
or
co-chair,
depending
on
how
the
arrangement
is
determined
all
of
the
things
that
we
that
I
just
listed
that
we
discussed
in
the
executive
meeting
I
do
still
plan
to
be
involved
with.
A
If
there
are
social
events,
I
do
still
plan
to
stop
in
and
visit
and
I'm
generally
interested
in
keeping
support
of
the
commission
just
without
the
same
commitments
that
I
know,
I
won't
be
able
to
maintain
in
the
near
future.
Just
given
I
guess,
workloads
and
potential
changes
in
Opportunities,
so
don't
intend
to
step
away
completely,
but
won't
be
necessarily
sitting
in
the
same
seat
either.
So
I
wanted
to
make
you
aware
of
that,
and
then
I
will
still
be
accessible
and
still
providing
input.
A
A
We'll
see
how
that
goes
so
did
I
mention
yes,.
I
I
G
A
Missing
right,
thank
you.
So
the
the
follow-up
item
in
the
report
is
the
co-chair
transition.
So
one
thing
I
noticed
that
is
not
present
in
our
bylaws.
Currently
is
any
sort
of
process
for
filling
vacant
officer
positions.
We
only
have
elections
that
are
specified
during
the
annual
meeting,
which
is
at
least
now
in
March.
So
there
would
only
be
a
maximum
of
a
one
man
one
month
Gap.
A
That
is
a
fabulous
question.
I
know,
at
least
with
the
last
chairs
departure.
There
was
just
no
replacement
provided,
and
it
was
just
the
chair
and
vice
chair
structure
that
created
a
gap
that
the
vice
chair
filled.
But
then
what
was
left
open
until
the
next
elections
took
place,
so
I
think
that's
not
necessarily
a
great
way
to
process
it,
especially
depending
on
where,
in
the
year
it
falls
and
I
don't
know.
E
Think
one
of
the
reasons
that
the
election
has
been
from
July
to
March
was
to
address
this,
and
there
will
also
be
some
new
members,
starting
as
well
so
I
guess.
My
proposal
would
be
that
we
have
our
other
culture,
managed
the
February
meeting,
and
then
people
can
consider
if
they
would
like
to
run
for
election.
The
March
meeting
seems
like
the
easiest
rather
than
having
them
one
month
in
a
room.
Culture.
J
Okay
with
everyone
I
definitely
support
that
this
time
around,
but
maybe,
if
it's
like
more
than
three
months
of
vacancy,
we
could
appoint
an
interim
where
we
could
select
a
threshold
and,
of
course
cross
that
bridge
when
we
get
there.
Since
that's
not
the
situation,
everyone
in
this
room
may
never
encounter
that
as
a
truffle
again
so
sure.
H
H
Just
wanted
to
know
the
opportunity
to
create
new
officer
positions
like
Outreach
coordinator,
social.
H
Chair
yeah,
the
roles
that
we
needed
filled
to
meet
modern
day,
Apartments
yeah.
G
E
So
it
would
take
a
couple
of
meetings
to
propose
what
the
roles
and
responsibilities
would
be
and
I
Joe's
going
to
sign
us
today
and
I'm
happy
to
circulate
it
as
well.
But
I
think
if
there
is
an
intention
to
amend
the
bile
as
it's
easier
to
do
that
all
at
once,
rather
than
in
a
couple
of
ways.
A
Right
there
so
I
think
we
can
maybe
take
that
up
and
do
business
and
have
a
discussion
about
how
to
approach
that
yeah
I
think
would
be
good
cool.
So
there
was
one
more
item
that
I
wanted
to
do
actually
actually
at
the
top
of
my
report,
and
that
was
to
provide
an
opportunity
for
introduction
for
Jessica
Davis,
who
is
the
new
IU
ex-officio
seat.
A
Jessica
I'll,
just
note
that
whenever
we've
had
new
Commissioners
come
out
in
the
past,
we've
just
provided
an
opportunity.
I
provide
an
opportunity
during
the
report
from
chairs
for
an
introduction
if
you're
interested,
but
there
is
no
obligation.
K
Sure
I
will
take
you
up
on
the
non-obligation.
My
name
is
Jessica.
I
am
the
interim
University
director
of
sustainability
for
all
of
IU
I've
been
director
of
sustainability
at
iepi
for
the
past
nine
years
and
in
August
was
pulled
up
to
the
university
director,
so
I've
been
the
sustainability
industry
for
aisle
and
I'm
happy
to
be
joining
you
all.
A
Excellent.
Thank
you
very
much.
We
are
very
happy
to
have
you
as
well.
It's
been
a
little
while
that
we've
been
talking
about
the
vacancy
of
that
position,
so
it's
great
to
have
that
great
to
have
you
on
board
all
right.
So
that
concludes
the
report
from
acting
share.
Are
there
any
questions
on
any
of
the
items
in
that
report.
A
All
right,
thank
you
all
for
bearing
with
me
through
that.
The
next
item
on
the
agenda
will
then
bring
us
to
the
report
from
our
staff
liaison
Lauren.
E
There
it
is
okay,
so
just
a
couple
of
items
and
I
have
another
piece
of
new
business,
but
I
won't
get
to
that
until
later.
But
we
have
reinvigorated
like
a
sustainability
newsletter
and
if
you'd
like
to
subscribe,
you
can
there's
a
subscribe
button
on
the
sustainability
page.
It's
a
good
way
to
keep
in
touch
with
what's
happening
in
terms
of
programs,
and
it
would
also
be
an
opportunity
if
there's
future,
like
commission
news
that
can
be
added
to
that
as
well.
E
So
there
hasn't
been
one
for
a
while,
but
we
just
sent
one
out
recently
on
the
11th.
So
if
you'd,
like
your
name
to
be
added
to
that,
be
happy
to
get
you
on
that
distribution
list
and
then
the
other
sort
of
update-
and
this
is
also
the
other
two
items-
are
also
covered
in
the
newsletter.
But
we
have
issued
an
announcement
for
our
grant
program,
which
is
expanded
to
small
businesses.
E
So
it's
easier
for
people
to
see
what
programs
are
for
individuals
versus
businesses
or
non-profits,
but
if
you're
involved
with
any
small
businesses
or
non-profits
that
have
indicated
interest
in
solar,
it's
going
to
be
25,
000
grant
for
solar
and
10
000
for
Energy
Efficiency,
so
program's
been
running
for
two
years
and
we've
been
able
to
expand
funding
opportunities
and
looking
forward
to
working
with
everyone.
In
that
context,
and
then
I
think
Michaela
mentioned
this
last
time,
but
ESU
received
a
public
service
award
last
month
for
implementation
of
the
climate
action
plan.
E
E
E
Yeah,
so
if
you
just
go
to
bloomington.in.gov
sustainability
scroll
down
a
little
bit,
there's
a
green
button,
one
says
like
us
on
Facebook
and
the
other
says
subscribe
to
sustainable
Bloomington
newsletter.
So
you
can
just
press
that.
A
G
E
A
B
Yeah
sure
thing:
hey
everyone,
so
we
have
our
shorts
three
week
or
so
recess
for
the
council
will
be
the
holiday,
maybe
not
even
that
long
but
I
think
maybe
well.
B
Think
it
was
so
anyway
we're
back
in
session
tomorrow,
the
first
time
it's
what
we
call
Council
organization
day.
So
we
will
vote
on
officer
positions
and
make
appointments
to
board's
commissions
and
other
types
of
things
that
council
members
serve
on
and,
as
I
mentioned
last
meeting
at
bcos,
and
that
will.
G
B
Appointment
Commission
on
sustainability,
I've
spoken
with,
who
I
think
will
be
elected
president
tomorrow
and
express
my
interest
in
continuing
to
serve
on
this
commission,
but
also
an
openness
to
give
up
that
seat
to
another
member.
If
somebody
else
really
would
like
to
so,
we
will
know
that
after
tomorrow
and
if
I
don't
continue
on
commission
this
year.
It's
been
a
pleasure,
of
course,
serving
with
all
of
you
for
the
last
two
years.
B
Additionally,
I
wanted
to
mention,
as
I
usually
do
that
I
have
my
monthly
constituent
meeting
on
the
third
Monday
of
the
month.
That
is
next
Monday.
The
16th
at
5
30
p.m.
If
you
go
to
bloomington.in.gov
council
see
Zoom
details,
so
all
residents
are
welcome
to
bring
some
interest,
including
sustainability
topics.
Another
update
from
the
the
council's
climate
action
resilience
committee.
As
you
know,
I
think
I've
reported
in
the
past.
B
We
had
spent
some
time
in
the
fall
planning
around
one
of
the
climate
action
plan,
items
that
would
require
or
possibly
require
some
legislation,
ultimately,
which
is
the
the
regulation
and
intended
phase
out
of
off
power
or
sorry
off-road
gas,
powered
equipment
and
some
of
the
more
egregious
offenders
from
a
noise
and
local
Air
Pollution
perspective
are
things
like
screen,
trimmers
and
gas
powered
blowers.
So.
B
Currently
going
to
break
over
the
the
holiday
but
set
my
intent
this
week
to
loop
back
with
committee
members
and
staff
to
discuss
some
dates
and
set
some
meeting
times
in
in
this
winter
and
and
or
spring
to
bring
in
residents
and
other
stakeholders
like
lawn
care
companies
to
talk
about
some
of
the
issues
involved
with
transitioning
to
electric
equipment,
we're
feasible
both
for
City
operations
and
also
community
community-wide
so
I
will
keep
you
all
posted
if
meetings
get
scheduled
in
the
interim
before
the
next
Commission
on
sustainability
meeting
the
same
idea
of
general
interest
admission
and
maybe
something
you're
you're
willing
to
help
amplify
with
the
folks
in
your
network.
B
Additionally,
as
was
sort
of
mentioned
already
and
I'm
happy
to
answer,
questions
after
I
share
some
updates
here.
So
thank
you
Jessica's
hand.
Additionally,
as
I
think
Lauren
or
Joseph
mentioned
the.
The
council
is
in
charge
of
about
half
the
appointments
to
the
commission
and
we'll
have
some
vacancies.
That
sounds
like
cancel
the
point.
We
do
that,
typically
by
dividing
work
among
interview
committees,
I'm
not
on
the
committee.
That
interviews
for
this
commission
that
is
I
think
is
filthy.
B
Mount
Smith
Susan,
Sandberg
and
Dave
Bravo
currently,
and
if
that
stays
the
same,
they
would
be
area
of
appointments.
They
just
did
a
reminder
that
if
you,
if
your
attorney's
expiring
and
you
intend
to
to
be
applying
to
the
academy
or
Council
appointment,
make
sure
the
council
office
and
the
clerk's
office
are
aware
of
that
and
yeah.
Hopefully,
we
can
get
those
detailed
pretty
quickly.
It's
a
little
bit
more
odorous
of
a
process
on
the
castle
side.
Just
because
we
would
find
times
to
meet.
Give
meetings
noticed,
make
recommendations.
B
You
know,
conduct
interviews,
make
recommendations
to
to
the
full
Council
and
that
sort
of
thing
so
not
quite
as
streamlined
as
the
mayoral
appointments.
I.
Think!
That's
it
for
me.
We
don't
have
any
major
pending
legislations.
There
are
any.
You
know
real
real
silliest
updates
on
that
front
from
the
council
side.
I
guess
last
now,
just
to
say:
welcome
to
Jessica
Davis,
it's
great
to
have
you
on
admission
and
also
thank
you
Joseph
for
serving
this
chair
and
we'll
see
you
on
commission,
but
yeah.
A
K
And
actually
it
was
maybe
more
of
a
comment
or
a
first
of
all,
Matt
good
to
see
you
related
to
electrification
and
what
ground
spleen
things
like
that.
We're
looking
at
well,
we've
already
done
it
at
IUPUI,
but
we're
looking
at
it
at
the
Bloomington
campus
and
we
were
planning
to
have
a
day
to
bring
in
a
handful
of
vendors
I
just
wanted
to
put
that
out.
There
is
maybe
a
win,
a
collaboration
between
the
city
and
IU,
but
we're
giving
you
a
line,
some
dates
or
times
or
if
there's
shared
interest
there.
B
K
K
B
Question
because
I'd
like
to
get
some
of
the
major
you
know:
governmental
or
institutional
Representatives
involved,
obviously
IU,
but
also
like
the
Monroe
County
government,
for
instance,
and
the
Murray
County
Community,
School
preparation
and
things
like
that
yeah
or
caretakers
of
black
right
yeah
yeah.
We
should
touch
base.
K
What
really
correct
the
code
for
us
was
that
at
least
some
iepy
sorry,
we
were
able
to
reach
out
to
Greenworks
and
they
brought
out
a
trailer
of
all
of
their
equipment,
and
they,
let
us
put
it
through
the
ringer
for
two
weeks.
G
K
Use
it-
and
that
was
kind
of
that
was
really
the
major
Concepts
our
staff,
like
the
day-to-day
teachers
of
it.
So
that's
something
that
we're
probably
going
to
be
looking
at
and
replicating
is
for
longer
term
Trials
of
these
sorts
of
equipment,
so
about
on
your
radar,
because
I
could
see
it
being
used
with
other
folks.
Besides
us,
too,
we'll
have
to
negotiate
with
different
vendors,
but
that
would
be
my
intention.
B
Yeah
absolutely
look
forward
to
more
conversation
around
that
I
think
you
know.
Our
climate
action
plan
calls
for
ideally
coordination
and
then
going
joint
commitments
to
to
basing
out
a
gas
power
equipment
again
from
from
the
local
government
units
and
and
IU
so
yeah
I
hope
that
would
be
a
touch
about
that
and
glad
you're
already
thinking
about
it.
All
right
sounds
good.
A
All
right
also
Jessica
I
know
your
appointment
would
be
very
helpful
but
I'm
I'm
Amazed
by
seeing
how
quickly
and
how
fruitful
it
has
already
been
so
I'm
glad
to
see
that
all
right.
So
that
concludes
our
report
from
Council
X
officio
and
we
can
go
on
to
reports
from
Commissioners
focusing
on
the
working
groups,
starting
with
just
transition.
If
you
want
to
cover
that
Angela.
F
Yeah
should
I
go
or.
E
F
You
want
to
okay
yeah,
so
we
just
met
Caitlin
is
a
member
of
the
working
group
now,
and
we
just
discussed
some
possible
goals
and
areas
that
we're
going
to
be
researching,
based
on
the
available
data
that
we
have
of
of
local
problems
and
manifestations
that
we
might
that
we
want
to
address
in
in,
in
accordance
with
the
just
transition
principles.
F
So.
Currently,
two
of
the
areas
are
looking
into
homeless,
mortality,
Data,
Tracking
and
fossil
fuel
non-proliferation
and
seeing
what
that
might
entail
for
our
local
area.
So
those
are
just
two
possible
areas
that
we're
looking
at
going
forward
on.
L
Since
our
last
meeting,
we
were
able
to
submit
our
application
for
Kappa
strategies.
That's
the
organization
that
helps
cities
across
the
U.S
map,
their
Urban
heat
Islands.
So
we
should
know
by
the
end
of
February.
If
we've
been
chosen
for
the
2023
cohort,
we've
had
a
couple
of
new
people
join
our
group,
a
staff
member
from
the
Bloomington
Fire
Department,
who
is
involved
with
their
mobile
Integrated
Health
Care
Unit,
a
staff
member
from
Bloomington
Transit
Hannah
Gregory
with
canopy
Bloomington
and
I,
also
have
a
friend
who
has
a
lot
of
experience.
L
Developing
Community
surveys,
so
she'll
be
helping
us
and
what
we're
working
on
right
now
is
just
going
through
all
of
the
plans,
city
and
county
plans
that
have
anything
to
do
with
heat
management.
So
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
not
duplicating
work,
that's
already
being
done
or
stepping
on
anybody's
toes.
Is
there
anything
else?
No.
I
Wins
we
wanted
what
and
then
we
started.
This
is
separately
started,
bokashi,
which
is
fermenting
our
food
waste
and,
if
you're
not
familiar
because
she's
a
vastly
better
way
than
composting
b-o-k-a-s-h-I.
I
It
doesn't
actually
break
the
food
down
into
soil,
but
it
keeps
a
vast
majority
of
the
carbon,
nitrogen
and
everything
else
compared
to
composting.
So
it's
actually,
if
composting
on
a
scale
of
1
to
10,
is
like
a
five
or
a
six
or
cautious
like
a
nine
or
a
ten.
It's
a
even
better
option.
So
we're
gonna
we're
gonna
play
around
with
that
and
have
pits
of
bokashi
sludge
and
and
other
good
stuff
and.
A
J
K
I
I
We've
known
about
it
for
a
while,
we
just
had
a
lot
of
other
stuff
on
our
plate,
so
we
just
started.
We
got
the
buckets
three
or
four
months
ago
and
now
we're
siphoning
off
the
the
juice
and
adding
that
to
three
tablespoons
per
one
gallon
of
water
and
we're
now
feeding
our
plants
with
it,
our
indoor
stuff
and
yeah
it
just
you
just
keep
a
lot
more
of
the
nutrients
in
and
it
doesn't
obviously
break
down
like
if
you
bokashi
10
pounds.
I
G
E
I
Like
I'm
all
about
composting
composting,
it's
great,
but
you
lose
a
lot
as
it
compost,
whereas
bokasha
you
keep
a
major
amount
of
the
nutrients.
D
I
I
Right
so
so
we're
doing
both
actually
for
the
food
waste
and
all
yard
waste.
We
still
compost
because
we
have
to
build
soil,
so
there's
definitely
a
place
for
both
yoga,
but
for
compost.
Captains
if
people
want
more
of
a
product
that
they
can
use
around
their
home,
bokashi
is
probably
going
to
be
a
better
option.
I
So
it's
just
something
that
we
could
build
with
layers
like
we
started
composting
and
then
once
you're
to
let
level
three
or
four
with
composting,
then
we
can
say:
let's
see
if
you
can
do
bokashi
as
well.
So
it's
just
more
layers
to
composting
would
be
the
idea
and
just
having
people
level
up
to
the
best
possible
outcome
and
then
something
they
can
not
only
do
at
home,
but
then
keep
everything
right.
D
There's
I
don't
know
just
something
to
think
about.
I
D
Old
story,
but
you
know
we
had
started
doing
some
work
of
like
set
up
different
types
of
basically
home
composting.
You
know,
you've
got
your
black
bucket.
You've
got
your
more
intensive.
You
got
your
more
kind
of
throw
it
all
in
there.
Let
it
go
right,
but
the
idea
and
idea
was
doing
basically
a
kind
of
demonstration,
slash
research.
You
know:
okay,
here's
how
you
get
the
best
product.
It
takes
the
most
money,
the
most
input,
the
most
time.
D
D
I,
don't
know
if
that
that's
something
to
keep
in
the
back
of
my
back
your
mind
is
you
know
whether
there
might
be
an
option
just
to
work
that
in
so
you
can
say,
like
here's,
a
kind
of
low
input?
No
time
you
know
don't.
D
There
and
then
here's
the
ones
you
turn
the
ones
you
aerate
and
kind
of
some
different
systems.
I'd
love
to
I'd
love,
to
see
something
like
that
around
here.
I've,
never
seen
that
kind
of
a
urban
zits
area,
demonstrating
different
options
and
kind
of
making
them
more
palatable.
It
sounds
like
you're
kind
of
doing
that
with
the
bokashi,
so
there
might
be
ways
to.
G
I
Right
and
that's,
the
idea
is
to
is
to
have
all
these
options
and
say:
oh
you
can
you
can
do
this
great?
We
want
you
to
do
something.
We
don't
care
what
you
do.
We
want
you
to
do
something,
and
so
we
want
to
offer
those
options
and
for
some
folks
bokashi
is
going
to
be
that
yeah,
it's
going
to
be
a
little
more
costly,
but
it's
also
dramatically
faster
than
composting
yeah
way
faster
to
get
to
that
finished
product.
I
With
bokashi
you're
talking
two
or
four
weeks
yeah,
so
you
just
said
you
have
these
buckets
and
just
keep
layering
it
with
the
the
the
wheat
germ,
essentially
that's
inoculated,
and
then
once
the
bucket's
full
you're
good.
You
have
you
wait
two
weeks
and
you're
good
to
go.
Plus
it
has
a
spigot
which
you
can
then
siphon
off
the
juices,
and
that
is
fantastic
for
plants.
J
I
J
F
J
I
And
there's
a
group
out
of
San
Diego
that
is
doing
it.
I
mean
the
tons
upon
tons
a
year.
I
think
they
have
500
somewhat
families
or
households
that
are
enrolled
and
there's
is
a
profit
model.
Ours
would
not
be
that,
but
they
have
trainings
and
they
have
different
levels
where
you
could
just
be
at
home,
but
then
you
can
be
a
captain.
I
You
can
accept
others,
so
you
actually
have
to
you
rise
through
these
to
get
that,
so
that
would
kind
of
the
idea
you
know
once
you've
proven
you
can
compost
and
you
can
be
a
captain.
Now
you
can
move
to
bokashi
or
so
on
and
so
forth.
So
we
want
it
to
be
a
long-term
where
you
continue
to
educate
yourself
and
continue
to
grow
so.
I
B
A
So
that
will
conclude
reports
from
Commissioners
all
the
working
groups
that
will
bring
us
on
to
discussions,
not
resolutions.
The
only
item
in
which
presently
is
a
local
composting
landscape
presentation,
which
I
prepared
I'm
following
your
question,
John
at
our
last
meeting
about
just
sort
of
what
the
the
status
of
composting
is
I'd
mentioned
that
it's
a
it's
a
vast
area
in
that
it
wouldn't
really
be
feasible
to
cover
all
of
it
in
a
single
meeting.
A
But
at
least
now
wanted
to
provide
the
opportunity
to
dedicate
dedicate
some
time
to
it
to
just
go
over
kind
of
an
introduction
and
just
a
broad
overview
of
what
the
landscape
is
and
point
out.
Some
of
the
the
most
important
resources
I
would
say
that
provide
a
lot
of
the
information
and
answers
to
a
lot
of
questions
in
case.
Anyone
here
was
not
already
aware
of
them
or
would
like
to
follow
up
with
them.
A
A
A
It's
going
to
be
sort
of
what's
been
done
in
the
past,
that
has
the
the
greatest
foundation
for
describing
the
current
status
of
I,
guess
the
waste
stream
and
in
particular
food
waste
and
compostables
or
Organics
in
general,
in
the
community,
we'll
touch
then
on
the
more
updated,
what's
actually
happening
right
now,
information
and
we'll
go
into
the
future,
mostly
with
respect
to
city
and
waste
Management
District
goals
around
the
topic
and
then
also
just
provide
a
short
opportunity
for
discussion
about
vicos's
current
involvement
and
future
involvement
in
that
realm,
and
then
we
can
I,
guess,
field
questions
or
make
remarks
after
the
the
foundation
and
probably
the
most
information
Rich
thing
that
we
have
right
now.
A
That
is,
unfortunately,
a
little
bit
old
at
this
point
is
that
the
Monroe
County
Solid
Waste
Management
District
commissioned
a
mixed
waste
processing
feasibility
study
in
2016..
So
you
can
see
on
the
image
that's
dated:
January
2018.
It
took
a
year
of
data
collection
and
then
a
year
to
I
think
compile
the
report.
A
So
the
numbers
are
from
2016,
the
report
was
released
in
2018
and
it
has
a
really
wide
and
comprehensive
assessment,
including
a
waste
composition
study
that
really
gives
a
good
cross-section
of
what's
happening
with
waste
in
this
particular
area
and
I
think
the
county
was
kind
of
the
target,
but
it
also
focused
on
adjacent
counties
in
in
the
region
and
I
put
on
on
the
right
side.
You
can
see
those
sort
of
key
elements
to
this
particular
document.
The
first
part
is
the
I
guess
section
two
is
the
the
regional
waste
system.
A
Section
four
is
the
composition
study,
which
is
probably
going
to
be
the
interesting
part,
and
then
Section
Five
I'll
touch
a
little
bit
more
on
in
the
next
slide,
and
it's
in
particular,
section
5.5
is
about
an
Organics
composting
facility
and
then
they
also
do
a
feasibility
assessment
of
a
variety
of
Waste
Management
options
and
then
provide
us
summary
conclusions.
A
So
this
was
focused
on
the
entire
waste
stream
and
what
came
out
of
it,
that
was
the
most
impactful,
was
the
waste
composition
study
and
what
I
have
shown
here
is
just
for
the
city
in
the
diagram,
but
they
did
the
same
study
for
the
city's
Hall
waste
for
the
salad,
Waste
Management
District,
for
IU
and
for
private
haulers,
and
so
the
part
that
that
really
popped
a
lot
of
eyes
is
that,
as
you
can
see,
for
the
city,
47
of
the
waste
stream
is
compostable
and
about
25
percent
of
that
is
food.
Waste.
D
A
A
I
A
I
already
moved
mine
out
of
the
way,
so
you
couldn't
see
some
of
the
other
things.
I
was
referring
to
I'll
just
go
see
if
I
can
go
back,
one
slide,
okay,
so
these
are
the
key
elements
that
were
concealed
previously
I
read
them,
so
it's
not
essential,
but
so
just
I
put
the
other
three
of
the
four
groups
that
were
audited
that
had
a
waste
audit
and
you
can
see
their
compositions
were
all
relatively
similar.
A
Pretty
close,
so
it
turns
out
that
we
can
say
that
roughly
half
of
the
waste
stream
is
compostable
and
roughly
a
quarter
of
the
entire
waste
stream
is
food
waste,
which
is
the
same
pretty
pretty
similar
nationally
as
well,
so
that
garnered
enough
attention
that
the
district
then
requested
a
subsequent
study,
which
is
the
Organics
Waste
Recovery
analysis.
So
the
same
organization,
Kessler
Consulting,
did
this
next
study,
specifically
on
Organics.
A
So
again,
some
of
the
most
important
elements
within
it
are
that
they
did
an
organic
waste
generation
and
Recovery
estimates,
an
assessment
of
existing
organic
waste
activities
and
that's
kind
of
the
landscape
of
a
snapshot
in
that
particular
time
where
they
did
active
facilities,
hauling
services
and
a
gap
analysis
in
terms
of
bringing
those
two
things
together
and
how
how
to
capture
the
UN
captured
material
and
and
then
in
sections.
Five
and
six
did
the
analysis
on
those
options
and
then
a
summary
and
next
steps.
A
A
Covid
had
a
pretty
big
impact,
there
have
been
I
think
at
least
three
Acquisitions
of
hauling
services
and
we'll
get
to
in
just
a
moment
the
closure
of
one
of
the
two
principle
which
I
guess
we'll
say
three,
but
two
real
facilities
that
was
receiving
waste,
so
I'll
talk
on
touch
on
that
and
then
I
think
the
next
slide,
but
for
the
present
slide,
this
is
just
I,
guess
a
a
gross
summary
of
the
contents
of
the
entire
report.
A
If
you
want
to
distill
it
to
how
much
waste
is
being
generated-
and
this
is
with
the
the
same
breakdown
that
they
did-
the
composition,
studies
on
so
there's
private
haulers,
there's
the
city,
there's
IU
and
then
there's
the
district,
and
so
this,
however,
is
on
the
organic
side
of
just
just
that
part
of
the
waste
stream
for
all
of
these
entities.
So
you
can
see
it's
around
a
120
tons,
total
mixed.
A
I
A
So
that
starts
the
subsequent
slide.
That
that
concludes
the
sort
of
historical
snapshot
that
was
done
by
these.
These
two
studies
in
2016
released
in
2018.
So
now,
if
we
jump
to
the
present
time
section
three,
just
starting
on
sort
of
the
the
community
standard
and
accessibility
of
composting,
this
is
from
the
Bloomington
Udo,
which
is
all
of
the
it's.
The
unified
development
ordinance
that
defines
all
of
the
the
I
guess,
city
regulations
and
there's
one
specifically
for
compost.
A
So
I
cited
the
exact
location
there,
20.03.30
and
then
under
operational
standards
for
non-commercial
Urban
agriculture.
You
can
have
compost
piles
that
do
not
exceed
six
feet
in
height
and
shall
be
enclosed
at
ground
level
to
be
rodent
resistant.
So
it
is
permitted
to
do
at
home
composting
in
Bloomington.
It's
not
true
of
many
places
in
the
U.S,
so
it's
I
guess
a
luxury.
A
We
can
actually
do
a
lot
of
it
here
in
the
allowed
use
table
on
the
bottom
shows
all
of
the
zoning
types
and
P
star
is
the
permitted
use
with
use,
condition
or
use
specific
standards.
So
it's
it's
permitted
with
specific
standards
in
every
single
zoning
type,
except
for
po
non-residential
I
apologize,
I,
don't
remember
exactly
which
one
that
is,
but
by
and
large
all
residential
zoning
permits
composting.
A
So
now,
on
the
more
large
scale
of
collecting
the
actual
tonnages
that
were
presented
from
The
Kessler
report.
This
is
an
up-to-date
list
of
registered
composting
facilities
in
Monroe
County,
with
a
quick
summary
of
each
of
them
on
the
bottom.
So
idem
only
records
that
they're
registered
when
I
added
to
the
bottom
was
my
knowledge
of
each
of
these
sites.
Presently,
so
green
earth
is
the
one
that
is
the
most
important
change
since
the
Kessler
reports.
A
They
are
no
longer
processing
any
waste
of
any
kind
yeah
and
they
were
only
one
of
three
facilities
that
were
actually
receiving
public
organic
material
and
the
other
two
being
earthkeepers
registered
as
Fable
Farms,
which
does
only
food
waste
collection
and
then
the
third
being
Good
Earth
LLC,
which
does
only
yard
waste.
So
no
no
food
waste,
the.
D
A
A
A
That
I
guess
it
does
not
appear
on
items
registered
composting
facilities
list
is
the
only
reason
I
didn't
include
it.
I
yeah,
so
I
guess
the
city
does
that,
but
not
in
a
way
that's
registered
with
idem.
Then.
E
A
A
You
can
interject
if
you
have
any
more
information
about
this,
but
the
information
that
I
found
was
that
it
was
I,
think
on
on
IU's
website
and
FAQ
that
it's
only
for
grounds
Landscaping
use
and
that
there
used
to
be
food,
waste
processing
or
food
waste
diversion
from
through
the
dining
halls,
but
that
was
through
Green
Earth,
which
has
since
closed
in
that
that
operation
at
IU
has
since
been
suspended
as
well.
K
A
A
So
that's
the
status
of
the
large
scale
processing,
so
one
thing
I
did
want
to
focus
on
was
just
since
earthkeepers
is
I.
Guess,
since
a
lot
of
the
focus
is
on
food
waste
diversion
that
earthkeepers
presently
is
the
only
service
provided
for
that
and
I
know.
This
has
come
up
a
handful
of
times
in
different
contexts
in
previous
meetings.
A
So
I
just
wanted
a
quick,
add
a
couple
of
points
about
their
services
in
that
they
do
have
three
different
kinds:
it's
curbside
pickup,
so
it's
a
normal
conventional
collection
route,
just
like
you
would
just
like
trash
and
recycling
services,
are
there's
also
a
drop-off
Network
that
we've
talked
about
a
little
bit
before,
where
there
are
publicly
accessible
locations
and
it
users
can
just
access
it
on
their
own
time
without
having
to
have
this
collection
service
at
a
specific
time
and
then
there's
also
commercial
hauling
services.
A
A
A
Little
bit,
and
that
reminds
me
I
forgot
to
note
I-
wanted
to
disclose
at
the
beginning
of
this
I
do
actually
work
with
earthkeepers.
I
know.
I've
also
mentioned
that
in
a
previous
meeting,
but
that
also
seems
pertinent
for
this
meeting
to
just
make
sure
everyone's
aware,
and
so
is
there
I
guess
in
a
general
way?
Is
there
something
in
particular
that
you're
interested
in
oh.
D
A
E
A
There
are
two
specific
goals
devoted
to
it
both
listed
here,
increasing
the
solid
waste
diversion
by
30
percent
of
2018
values,
and
then
the
second
is
to
educate,
motivate
and
empower
the
public
to
achieve
waste
reduction
and
diversion
the
the
whole
climate
action
plan.
Link
is
available
at
the
bottom
of
the
page
and
then
I
just
added
a
little
bit
more
specific
information
about
those
two
goals
here,
because
under
each
goal
in
the
climate
action
plan,
there
are
also
specific
action
items
associated
with
that
goal.
So
it
is
pretty
granular
in
this
particular
case.
A
So
under
the
first
goal,
these
are
all
of
the
sections.
These
four
sections
are
related
to
Organics
diversion
clearly
the
first
one
increasing
it
by
40
percent
of
2018
values.
I
should
also
add
this
as
a
10-year
plan.
I
didn't
mention
that
or
show
that
on
the
previous
slide,
but
the
climate
action
plan
has
a
10-year
window
and
was
approved
2021
early
2021.,
so
we're
in
the
early
period
of
this,
and
these
are
the
objectives
for
that
10-year
window.
So
the
first
is
Organics
Diversion.
A
The
second
is
potential
recoverables,
which
could
include
edible
food
waste,
so
I
mean
it
could
cover
any
any
spectrum
of
usable
items,
but
food
is
not
excluded
from
that
waste
reduction
same
thing
and
then
expanding
Recycling
and
Organics
options
for
multi-family
residents
was
another
Target
strategy
for
the
landfill
diversion.
A
So
the
second
goal
is
just
a
I
think
a
single
strategy,
and
that
is
mostly
public
awareness
campaigns,
one
one
big
item
of
which
that
I
wanted
to
also
highlight
that
the
city
partnered
with
the
Earth
Keepers
before
was
the
compost
up
downtown
program.
There
are
links
to
both
the
city
and
earthkeepers
pages
with
respect
to
that,
but
it
was
essentially
a
restaurant
onboarding
pilot
program
where
the
the
city
provided
funding
for
earthkeepers
service
to
be
able
to
demonstrate
the
Earth
Keepers
to
be
able
to
demonstrate
the
service
to
local
restaurants.
E
A
Thank
you
yeah,
so
where
the
service
was
paid
for,
so
that
restaurants
could
try
it
without
having
to
have
the
initial
hurdle
of
making
a
financial
commitment
to
an
unfamiliar
service,
so
that
is
actually
just
yeah.
It's
happened
over
this
last
year
and
is,
is
finishing
out
its.
It
was
in
a
staged
process,
so
it's
in
the
process
of
finishing
out
the
last
of
the
sets
of
onboarded
restaurants,
and
then
reports
in
summaries
and
presentations
will
follow.
D
Does
that
come
out
of
that
report,
like
is
have
they
identified
14
000
tons
that
can
be
yeah
for
the
most
recent
data
right?
What
was
it
like?
Was
it
food
waste?
Was
it
paper.
E
A
Yep
other
questions
so
far:
okay,
so
that
covers
the
city's
goals
and
then
there's
also
the
Monroe
County
Solid
Waste
Management
District.
For
those
who
are
not
familiar.
It
is
a
state
defined
entity
that
is
neither
the
city
nor
the
county
and
has
run
by
a
board
of
directors
that
are
appointed
from
both
bodies.
A
So
it
is
focused
primarily
on
just
providing
minimum
essential
Waste
Services,
including
like
hazardous
materials
processing,
and
they
also
operate
I-
think
five
recycling
centers
around
the
whole
sort
of
Central
Monroe
County
area,
so
around,
basically
the
outskirts
of
the
city
limit
and
they
also
with
the
citizens
advisory
committee,
which
I
also
participate
on
recently
adopted
or
at
the
end
of
last,
at
the
end
of
2021,
adopted
a
five-year
Solid
Waste
Management
plan
that
also
contained
similar
goals
and
objectives,
particularly
surrounding
Organics,
so
also
including
education,
Source
reduction
and
waste
diversion
particularly
expanding
the
compost.
A
End
user
Market,
which,
as
you
were
mentioning
with
large
volume
of
material
that's
created
in
the
composting
process,
it
needs
to
go
somewhere.
It
doesn't
just
disappear
in
the
way
that
you
bury
things
in
a
landfill.
It
I
mean
it
is
also
a
valuable
product,
so
part
of
the
goal
is
to
be
able
to
have
that
circular.
End
of
the
process
where,
what's
being
trans
or
diverted,
is
actually
going
back
somewhere
useful.
A
One
other
item-
that's
relatively
new
and
developing
and
potentially
I
guess-
has
the
potential
to
have
a
significant
impact
is
that
the
city
of
Bloomington
utilities
is
currently
going
through
a
resource
recovery
feasibility
study
for
an
anaerobic
biodigester
at
the
Dillman
Road
wastewater
treatment
plant,
so
that
is
underway.
Preliminary
results
were
reported
a
couple
of
months
ago
and
they
should
be
nearing
the
actual
full
report
this
month
is
when
it's
scheduled.
E
I
E
There's
not
a
class
study.
That's
been
done
for
full
implementation.
There
was
not
an
expectation
that
it
would
be
entirely
publicly
funded.
However,
in
the
past
year
and
starting
in
January,
there's
actually
a
dedicated
funding
source
for
implementation
through
the
economic
development,
local
income
tax,
so
that
budget
for
this
year
will
help
Advance
some
of
the
goals,
but
other
ones
are
going
to
be
dependent
on
Partnerships,
which
I
think
is
pretty
consistent
with
other.
E
I
And
one
thing
with
the
waste
reduction
that
we
looked
into,
for
example,
so
four
waste
reduction
through
policy
and
operational
refinements,
all
the
the
cartons
we
look
into
recycling,
all
those
cartons
and
the
majority
are
from
school
systems
with
kids
drinking
milk,
and
we
just
found
out
that
the
the
company
that
the
city
has
the
contract
with
doesn't
recycle
them.
So
it's
like
how
do
we
get
over
that?
That's
enough!
That's
low-hanging
fruit!
I
A
Yeah
so
two
two
mats
remark:
I
mean
that
kind
of
wraps
up
those
those
potential
big
picture,
impacts
on
Organics
and
sort
of
the
goals,
the
plans,
the
efforts,
but
then
the
the
bikos
activities,
like
you
mentioned,
one
of
them
so
neighborhood
composting
program
again
in
line
with
the
climate
action
plan
goals
and
then
also
partnering
with
the
Solid
Waste
Management
District,
to
promote
their
drop-off
collection.
A
So
the
district
is
partnered
with
earthkeepers
I
should
specify
so
all
of
the
recycling
centers
have
Organics
drop-offs
at
them,
but
it's
earthkeepers
who
who
operates
that
it's
just
in
partnership
with
the
district
and
then
the
other
network
is
in
partnership
with
the
city
and
those
are
at
two
parks
and
the
blooming
Foods
locations.
So
again,
earthkeepers
is
operating
these
things,
but
in
Partnership.
I
A
So
I
just
threw
out-
and
this
this
is
the
last
slide
about
the
B
coast-
roll
just
sort
of
some
things
that
we
could
be
doing
in
2023,
working
reviewing
climate
action
plan
goals,
making
sure
we're
aligning
with
those.
We
could
focus
on
spreading
the
zero
in
Bloomington
efforts
and
then
just
the
waste
reduction
working
group
will
be
continuing
to
set
goals
primarily
around
the
composting
program,
from
what
we've
discussed,
but
also
yeah.
That
will
be
an
Avenue
for
B
coast
to
continue
to
engage
in
Organics
collection
and
diversion.
A
E
A
So
those
those
reports
are
actually
also
linked
right
in
this
show,
or
this
presentation
so
at
the
bottom
of
the
page.
There's
the
mixed
waste
processing,
there's
the
Organics
recovery,
there's
the
Bloomington
Udo,
there's
earthkeeper's
site
and
then
there's
the
climate
action
plan
and
the
compost
up
and
the
solid
waste
management
plan
as
well
so
I
can
I
can
strip
those
links
out
if
you
want
them
and
just
directly
in
an
email
too,
but
they're
all
right
in
the
presentation.
If
you
want
to
jump
to
them
other
questions
or
comments,
thoughts.
A
H
Well,
I
guess
this
is
good
places
any
what
Joe
was
mentioning
earlier
about
our
executive
meeting
I
just
wanted
to
give
a
little
context
as
to
what
we
were
discussing
said
that
we
think
that
we
can
to
generate
strength
in
numbers.
We
should
be
doing
some
Outreach
to
try
and
get
more
awareness
of
people,
and
also
the
fact
that
we
beat
basically
once
a
month
here
we
get
a
lot
of
business
done
here,
but
there's
not
a
lot
of
idea,
exchange
or
room
for
it
for
between
individuals.
H
I
really
only
see
you
guys
here,
but
we
all
could
have
a
lot
to
discuss.
I
think
a
social
event
would
help
with
that.
We
were
just
that
meeting
alone.
Between
the
four
of
us.
We
were
generating
a
ton
of
ideas
that
we
all
want
to
act
on.
H
Generating
something
to
help
support
our
projects,
also
getting
a
volunteer,
pull
that
if,
if
we
can
find
out
how
to
make
this
feasible
with
the
city,
so
that
regular
volunteers
that
are
putting
in
the
time
and
effort
can
join
the
commission,
basically
just
setting
up
a
framework
for
growth
and
finding
people
that
are
really
committed
to
performing.
H
So,
as
we
discuss
this
later
on,
I
guess
to
work
out
the
details
of
these
kind
of
social
engagements
I
would
welcome
any
input
or
suggestions
that
you
guys
might
have
both
for
reaching
out
to
volunteers,
potential
funding
sources
and
each
other.
Just
let
us
know
it's
all
right.
Yeah.
A
Thank
you,
I'll,
add
yeah
I
do
think.
That's
a
good
idea.
I
think
that
would
really
help
have
like
a
set
of
cold
applications
to
those
who
are
maybe
less
familiar
with
the
commission
having
those
who
have
already
been
participating
like
be
able
to
have
a
seat
on
the
commission
after
having
participated,
I
mean
that
would
be
that'd,
be
great
for
the
sort
of
integration
process.
They'd
be
ready
to
go
and
already
familiar
with
the
activities
I
was.
A
J
A
Yeah
we
talked
about
also
opening
it
up
to
the
public.
Just
having
like
a
commission,
an
open
house
sort
of
thing
like
meet
the
Commissioners,
and
then
people
could
also
spontaneously
just
show
up,
even
without
necessarily
applying
to
be
on
the
commission,
but
to
be
like.
Oh
I,
don't
know
what
the
commission
is
I'm,
more
interested
in
learning
sure
so
I
think
there
are
a
lot
of
dimensions
in
which
that
could
be
successful.
A
J
J
C
Yeah,
like
just
like
a
monthly
thing
where
we
can
have
a
place
that
we
can
all
gather
that,
like
we
all
know,
is
gonna
happen
and
if,
if
you're
available,
then
you
can
come
and
if
not,
it's
just
us
to
have
time
to
interact
in
a
less
formal
setting.
It's
not
like
a
a
one-time
thing
just
be
like
a
regular
thing
that
grab
a
beer
or
not
water.
E
C
J
Of
sense,
I
think
a
Cadence
of
monthly
is
too
frequent
for
me
personally,
the
Cadence
of
monthly
is
just
a
little
bit
too
frequent
because
the
working
group
meetings
you
know,
there's
just
some
other
things
and
I
want
to
be
able
to
like
capitalize
on
the
social.
You
know
experience
versus
if
it's
monthly
it
can
kind
of
I
guess
after
a
couple
months,
it
might
feel
like
a.
H
J
Something
like
quarterly
or
again,
like
I
was
thinking
after
elections.
I
kind
of
came
midterm,
so
I
was
like
that's
the
president.
That's
all
I
need
to
know.
You
know
so
I
feel
like
it
could
be
a
good
introduction,
especially
when
you
guys
mentioned
onboarding.
You
know
materials.
My
onboarding
was
a
little
bit
clunky,
not
to
anyone's
fault.
I
think
it
was
just
like
a
combination
yeah,
so.
H
Were
each
other
another
open
one
for
public
to
come
join
so
that
we
can?
You
know
this,
isn't
a
great
setting
for
people
interested
to
come
experience
it
or
talk
to
us,
so
maybe
in
a
monthly
one
for
general,
public,
Outreach
and
new
members.
H
What
might
that
look
like
you
know
just
going
to
like
the
a
restaurant
that
allows
all
ages,
we
can
announce
it
in
the
newsletter
as
meet
the
public
events
or
meet
the
commission
events
that
way
that
the
people
that
come
and
sit
here
actually
get
to
engage
a
little
bit
more
to
get
to
know
us
and
shoot
their
ideas
out
and
then
maybe
coordinate
something
that
they
come
in
later
during
one
of
the
the
official
meetings
to
present
their
idea.
H
D
About
potentially
this
commission
that
commission
might
join
up,
but
what
I
don't
know
that
commission
doll
like
I,
don't
know
what
the
is
there
some
boundaries?
Like
that's
our
topic,
you
know
like
don't
touch
it
in.
D
A
A
discussion
of
board
and
commission
reform
Citywide,
so
one
of
those
items
included
reducing
the
total
number
of
boards
and
commissions
I
think
there
are
52
or
something
of
that
nature.
So
that
was
one
of
the
considered
proposals
for
reducing
number
of
commissions.
It's
I
don't
know
that
it's
been
followed
through
on,
but
we
so
far
have
been
operating
in
isolation
from
each
other.
J
And
any
volunteers
on,
like.
L
J
I
have
student
interest
groups
who
would
come
as
well
just
something
like
that,
but
back
to
meeting
just
us
another
Pro.
If
we
can
just
all
meet
just
us
together,
we
can
create
some
ties
amongst
us
before
we
kind
of
open
it
up
to
those
broader
networking.
A
F
A
Meeting
I
just
want
to
be
cautious
about
like
planning
suggestions,
I
make
for
plans.
I
might
not
directly
be
a
part
of
in
the
same
capacity,
but
my
stance
is
similar.
That
I
think
a
monthly
social
in
addition
to
monthly
regular
meetings
and
monthly
working
group
meetings
would
be
a
lot
of
time
that
I
imagine
not.
Everybody
would
be
able
to
make
all
of
in
that
the
social
would
probably
be
the
one
that
gets
cut.
I
think
quarterly
would
maintain
that
maybe
higher
quality
value,
since
it's
less
frequent
and
having
yeah.
A
That's
kind
of
what
I'm
thinking
of
having
I
don't
know
quite
how
to
dice
it,
but
having
some
of
them
be
designated
as
Commissioners,
some
of
them
open
to
the
public.
Something
I
hadn't
thought
about,
but
I
think
is
a
really
good
idea,
because
that
way
we
can
focus
on
having
more
direct
time
and
the
time
being
devoted.
A
H
J
E
A
I
F
F
G
G
J
And
we
run
a
very
since
it's
an
informal
event.
Can
we
run
a
very
informal
vote
for
just
the
February
social
versus
a
March
social
pre-election,
social
versus
post,
or
we
all
just
want
to
try
for
a
Valentine's
Day
thing.
C
F
C
A
C
J
G
E
D
A
J
A
I
A
Okay:
okay,
seeing
none,
we
will
go
ahead
and
move
on
to
our
agenda
item
number
11,
which
is
new
business
Bloomington
Commission
on
sustainability,
2023
Community,
grant
program,
I
believe
Lauren,
you're,
filming
that
one.
E
Yeah,
so
in
the
past,
because
hasn't
had
any
grants
that
you're
considering
some
other
questions,
do
Bloomington
Arts,
commission,
Bloomington,
Urban,
Enterprise,
Association
and
so
with
a
portion
of
funds
through
ESD
I
wanted
to
propose-
and
this
is
sort
of
a
very
brief
and
general
Proposal,
with
more
specifics
later-
that
there
be
a
program
to
help
support
Collective
impact
in
some
of
the
areas
that
you've
all
been
working
on
in
the
working
groups
and,
more
broadly
with
the
idea
that
this
commission
collects
and
review
applications
on
at
least
a
once
a
year
basis.
E
So
I
linked
a
couple
of
examples
of
programs
in
the
agenda
that
are
run
by
different
Commissions
in
different
parts
of
the
country,
they're
all
slightly
designed
differently.
But
the
idea
being
that
you
have
a
lot
of
great
ideas,
there's
a
lot
of
ways
to
potentially
interact
with
the
community,
especially
with
things
like
neighborhood
groups
or
other
sort
of
like
more
informal
organizations
to
help
Advance
the
club
action
plan.
So
to
Joe's
point
at
the
end
of
his
presentation.
E
E
That's
pretty
much
as
far
as
it's
gotten
right
now,
because
we
just
got
our
new
budget
of
funds
last
week.
So
there's
not
a
final
determination
about
what
would
be
funded,
but
in
between
this
meeting
and
the
next
meeting.
I
just
wanted
to
encourage
anyone
to
check
out
those
three
programs
and
then
also
think
about
follow
up
with
the
ongoing
either
working
group
or
a
collection
of
people.
That
would
be
interested
in
helping
scope
this
out
in
the
upcoming,
probably
four
months
before
it
would
launch.
E
E
Instead
of
having
your
activities
only
be
driven
by
the
small
group
of
people,
it
helps
improve
Collective
impact,
so
some
of
those
things
could
be
like
right.
Now
we
have
teams
on
zero
and
Bloomington
could
help
potentially
support
that
and
there's
different
categories.
I.
Think
if
you
look
at
the
grant,
Grant
examples,
but
I
think
at
at
the
most
basic,
it
would
be
that
the
commission
is
able
to
evaluate
the
proposals
against
criteria
and
decide
which
ones
get
funded
in
a
year.
It
would
provide
also
I
mean
metrics
towards
the
annual
report.
E
In
terms
of
you
know,
additional
progress
towards
the
climate
action
plan
that
the
commission
supported
and
since
the
climate
action
plan
pointed
this
group,
is
helping
advance
that
plan.
It
provides
a
funding
mechanism
to
make
that
more
feasible.
E
Though
maybe
closest
example,
that
is
existing
within
the
organization
of
a
small
grant
program
like
this
would
be
housing,
neighborhood
development
as
a
small
and
simple
grant
program.
So
you
can
also
look
out
as
an
example
of
ways
that
things
like
invasive
removal
projects
have
been
funded
in
the
past.
Okay,.
E
J
E
Of
an
application
question
I'm
on
board
yeah,
but
I
mean
some
examples
of
things
that
you've
given
today
like
compost,
captains
or
something
if
you
had
a
neighborhood
that
wanted
to
participate
and
needed
additional
funding
for
supplies.
That
could
be
an
example
of
an
application.
A
potential
program.
A
J
E
Okay
in
most
situations-
and
you
can
see
some
of
the
programs-
you
either
need
a
fiscal
sponsor
or
you
need
a
project
budget
and
that
just
creates
enforceability
to
make
sure
that
the
work
gets
done.
Usually
there's
a
pretty
short
report
about
impact
so
that
you
can
report
back
to
the
commission
and
say
like
what
happened
as
a
result
of
the
funds.
E
A
A
A
I
do
want
to
take
the
opportunity
to
say
it
has
been
wonderful
serving
with
you
all
I
am
very
excited
with
where
we
have
gotten
over
the
last
year,
in
particular,
I
think
we're
in
a
very
good
position
and
moving
in
a
very
good
direction
and
I
look
forward
to
seeing
how
it
continues.
So,
thank
you
all
for
all
your
time
and
your
efforts
just
a
reminder
that
our
next
meeting
will
be
February,
14th
I,
believe
here
at
6
pm,
and
if
there
is
no
objection,
this
meeting
will
adjourn.
