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
So
it
is
604
call
this
meaning
to
order
blue
into
commission
on
sustainability
and.
A
A
Okay,
that's
everyone
and
then.
A
Nathan,
would
it
be
fine
if
you
acted
as
chair
for
this
meeting
until
we
have
elections
next.
A
H
Okay,
so
thanks
to
lauren
for
starting
the
meeting
and
doing
the
roll
call.
H
First
up
we
have
approval
of
the
agenda.
Would
anyone
like
to
make
a
motion
to
approve.
E
On
unanimous
consent
to
adopt
it,
but
in
that
case
we
don't
really
need
a
motion
in
a
second.
E
A
vote
yeah.
Does
anyone
have
any
objections
to
approving
the
agenda.
H
H
Is
here
I
don't
know,
if
is,
is
anyone
else
here
from
the
public?
Besides
dawn.
I
Okay,
really
quickly,
I
wanted
to
go
through
quickly.
I
The
ec
last
sunday
held
a
zoom
meeting
with
the
bloomington
neighborhood
and
homeowners.
I
Associations
to
inform
them
and
encourage
them
to
support
or
and
participate
in
the
ecs.
I
Where
there
are
a
higher
percentage
of
people
with
modest
means,
so
the
idea
will
be
to.
I
Get
support
for
replacement
plants,
assistance
and
say
removing
invasive
plants
and
and
we're.
I
Also
encouraging
the
other
neighborhoods
around
the
city
to
participate
as
well.
I
I
As
far
as
I
know,
we're
all
pretty
much
off
and
running
on
that
related
to
that
parks
and
mc.
I
Iris
are
expanding
into
hopefully.
Last
week
we
had
to
bail
on
the
idea
our
effort
in
the.
I
Forest
they're
south
of
immediately
south
of
the
mall
vladimir
woods.
I
And
so
this
thursday
or
sorry
friday,
we're
hoping
again
we're
going
to
be
playing.
I
Mci
recent
parks
would
encourage
any
of
you
that
are
interested
to
participate
with
us
and.
I
Corridors
that
are,
and
the
ones
where
we're
focusing
on
right
now
are
city-owned
properties.
I
But
occasionally
we
are
expanding
out
into
county
as
well
as
private.
I
Efforts,
so
that's
pretty
much
it
just
one
quick
note
today
I
read
an
interesting
article.
I
I
Concerns
for
climate
change
and
affordable
housing,
etc.
It's
this
is
something
that.
I
H
Oh,
I
guess
I'll
I'll
give
the
report
from
acting
chair.
We
have
coming
up
later
on.
H
In
the
agenda
under
new
business
to
discuss
the
possible
record,
the
recommendation.
H
To
possibly
merge
be
co
because
with
the
environmental
commission
and
we'll.
H
Transition
town
hall
event
that
we
have
coming
up
next
month
march
16th,
we
have
created
lauren.
H
But
to
facilitate
with
that
creation,
we
are
marketing
that
event
so
pro
and
pro
and.
H
H
The
end
of
this
month,
so
I'll
pro
I'll,
probably
be
sending
an
email
to
everyone
on
beat
pause
in.
H
H
Who
may
like
to
attend
that?
And
I
don't
have
anything
else
to
report
report
from
staff.
H
Liaison
lauren
you're
hi
everyone.
First,
I
just
wanted
to
say
hello
to
emma
and
david
who.
A
Are
our
new
members
of
the
commission?
It's
our
first
official
meeting,
although
I've
heard.
A
David,
you
were
apparently
on
last
time
and
nobody
knew
so
welcome
to
our
commission.
A
A
A
A
In
and
then
the
other
things
that
I
wanted
to
talk
about,
I
just
forwarded
in
press
release.
A
A
Tracking
and
engagement
and
I
think
that
there's
a
good
possibility
that
I'd
like
some
feedback.
A
On
a
climate
action,
dashboard
and
engagement
tool
that
we'll
be
launching
in
the
first
half
of.
A
This
year,
so
as
that
starts
happening
and
being
built
in
february
and
march,
I'd
like
to
bring
it.
A
A
Bloomington
page,
so
the
page
that
I
manage
on
the
website
is
hosting
information
about
a.
A
A
Then
be
available
to
folks
that
aren't
available
on
friday,
the
22nd,
so
the
website
for
that
is.
A
As
well
as
canopy
bloomington
monroe,
county
parks
and
recreation
and
sycamore
land
trust,
so.
A
I
think
that's
most
of
what
I
have
to
report
later
in
the
agenda
like.
A
For
commissions,
but
we'll
see
how
long
the
meeting
is
starting
with
the
other
items
so.
H
Thanks
lauren-
and
I
just
also
was
thinking
it
would
be
nice
under
new
business.
If
we
had
just
a.
H
That
might
be
nice,
so
I'll
give
you
guys
a
heads
up
on
that
and
okay
moving
on
to
report
from.
H
Council
ex
officio
matt
flaherty,
thank
you
yeah,
so
for
our
new
members
too,
I'm
matt.
E
Executive
seat
on
vcos,
I
also
chair
the
climate
action
resilience
committee
of
the
council.
E
Would
committee
would
continue
to
exist?
We
we,
the
the
council,
was
reorganizing.
E
E
Know
a
number
of
commissioners
had
engaged
with
that
process,
as
noted
in
the
agenda.
E
Myself
and
council
members
is
isabelle:
piedmont,
smith,
councilmember
smith
and
councilman
baralo.
E
Meeting,
I
suppose
how
committee
members
would
like
to
I
mentioned
last
month
that
personally.
E
I
I
view
both
the
city's
climate
action
team,
which
is
made
up
of
department,
heads
and
lauren.
E
E
E
Hoping
that
our
february
meeting,
we
can
have
a
bit
of
a
discussion
about
potential
items
to
try
to.
E
Of
those
plans
over
the
next
seven
or
so
years
of
the
kind
of
implementation
time
frame.
E
For
the
for
the
cap
would
definitely
welcome
because
members
to
attend
if
they
are.
E
E
Staff
earlier
this
week,
those
that
date
and
time
so
again,
tuesday
february
22nd
at
6
pm,
so.
E
Notice
we'll
go
out
soon
if
it
hasn't
already,
and
there
will
be
a
a
link
on
the
council's
web.
E
Page
for
the
agenda
and
and
zoom
meeting
information.
So
that's
at
bloomington.in.gov.
E
Council
that
meeting
calendar-
I
I
think
it's
worth
the
commission
considering
having
somebody.
E
Designated
to
potentially
attend
those
meetings,
if
that's
of
interest
to
folks
to
continue
to.
E
E
For
those
is
found
on
the
council's
calendar,
so
that's
february
21st
this
month
at
5,
30
pm.
E
Commissioned
to
do
an
organizational
assessment
of
the
city's
boards
and
commission
structure.
E
Is
to
combine
the
commission
on
sustainability
and
the
environmental
commission.
E
On
the
recommendation
with
regard
to
to
be
costs
and
the
environmental
commission.
E
In
terms
of
ongoing
work
before
the
council,
with
sustainability,
implications
or
relevance.
E
And
we
will
be
hearing
considering
a
resolution
on
a
proposed
tax
abatement
for.
E
Catalan
for
an
expan,
a
substantial
expansion
in
in
jobs
and
manufacturing
capacity
for.
E
Them
down
down
near
their
near
their
site
off
of
rogers
and
kind
of
near
switzerland
park.
E
So
that
was
heard
by
the
the
bloomington
economic
development
commission
on
january
31st.
E
And
and
recommended
for
the
abatement
schedule
brought
by
staff
for
that
project.
I
believe.
E
E
E
You're
interested
in
reading
more
about
that
or
you
could
watch
the
the
most
recent
economic.
E
Significant
impacts
on
social,
economic
and
environmental
sustainability,
so
I
thought.
E
Commissioners
may
be
interested
plan
to
discuss
that
some
in
my
constituent
meeting
this.
E
Month
and
really
anything
else
that
residents
want
to
tackle,
so
I
think
that's
it
for
updates.
E
From
me
and
happy
to
answer
any
questions,
if
folks
have
them
about
any
of
those
things.
H
Thanks
for
that
update,
I'm
just.
H
Pulling
up
the
having
a
little
trouble
pulling
up
the
agenda
again.
H
What's
can
someone
help
me
out
what's
next
on
the
agenda.
A
The
next
thing
colin
had
sent
commission
members
some
guidance
on
the
bipartisan
infrastructure.
A
Bill,
I
wasn't
sure
if
you
wanted
to
discuss
that
con.
If
not,
we
can
skip
to
the
next
thing.
J
Go
ahead
and
try
my
thing
really
quick:
if
that's
all
right,
could
you
enable
yes
just
a
second.
K
J
Sorry
about
that
I'll
just
get
right
into
it,
though,
while
lauren's
doing.
J
J
J
J
Passed
historic
investment
infrastructure
last
year,
the
so-called
bipartisan
infrastructure
law.
J
J
Though
I
think
the
climate
provisions
could
have
been
could
have
been
beefed
up,
of
course,.
J
H
In
your
opinion,
colin,
what
are
the
important
timelines
and
considerations.
J
No,
no,
not
at
all
actually,
so
this
was
really
just
putting
it
out
there
getting
it
on
our
radar.
J
J
J
H
Okay,
thank
you
for
that
angel.
Yes,
I
just
wanted
to
mention
well
first
say
thanks
colin
for.
E
Sending
that
around-
and
I
did
spend
a
little
time
going
through
it
and
in
particular
I.
E
Just
wanted
to
plug
that
the
data
file-
that's
downloadable,
is
quite
useful.
It's
got
all.
E
The
programs
separated
out
by
category
and
there's
a
bunch
around
resilience
around
you.
E
Eligible
recipients
and
and
timelines,
and
all
that,
so
it's
just
a
really.
E
Great
searchable
and
categorizable
excel
document,
so
it's
maybe
380
rows
or
something
like.
E
E
Existing
but
you
know
getting
additional
funding
that
sort
of
thing,
so
I
haven't
spent
much.
E
Time
in
it
yet,
but
it
is
yeah
enormous
scope
and
and
really
exciting
by
the
way.
So.
E
H
Doing
a
deeper
dive
next
on
the
agenda
is
resolutions
for
third
reading
resolution,
220
2201.
H
Does
that
mean
we're
voting
on
voting
to
accept
the
changes
and
that
this
reflects
last
month's.
A
Conversation
reflecting
that
next
month
will
be
the
monthly
meeting
to
annual
suction
of
officers.
A
And
that
will
also
give
an
opportunity
for
the
commission
to
discuss
the
2022
sustainability.
A
Assessment
and
can
discuss
in
more
detail
at
next
month's
meeting
about
what
that
will
look.
A
Of
conducting
official
business,
and
that
reflects
some
challenges
and
in
defining
quorum
when.
A
Seats
were
vacant
which
happens
from
time
to
time
and
then
the
only
other
changes
down
here.
A
And
voting
for
the
adoption
of
a
resolution.
So
if
there
is
any
discussion
that
should.
A
Happen
no,
and
I
will
scroll
back
to
wherever
anyone
wants
to
talk
about.
B
Yeah
personally,
it
did
seem
to
be
in
line
with
the
intent
of
the
other
changes
in
order
to.
B
B
E
I'm
inclined
yeah,
thank
you.
I'm
inclined
to.
E
The
same
numbers
we
had
last
month,
so
I'm
actually
not
sure
we
can
amend
the
bylaws.
E
Maybe
article
5
should
be
should
be
clarified
to
to
be
in
line
with
with
the
changes.
H
H
E
Change
in
place,
we
need
to
follow
the
old
rules,
but
we
are
trying
to
address
that
that
problem.
E
Have
that
flexibility,
but
until
that's
the
case
I
think
technically
we
are.
We
are
not.
E
F
Would
be
13
as
opposed
to
14,
in
which
case
we
might
have
so
that
was
her.
I
think
her.
E
Is
you
know
fine,
we
could
we
can
draft
a
very
simple
cleanup,
ordinance
and
and
bring
that.
E
I
think
potential
changes
to
the
to
the
boards
and
commission
structure
via
city
ordinance
via.
E
You
know
yeah
change
to
city
code.
I
was
sort
of
assuming
we
would
tackle
as
a
broader
board.
E
H
F
A
A
The
merger,
I
think,
there's
also
I
talked
to
city
clerk
staff,
intention
to
interview.
A
A
A
E
E
E
E
The
appeal
to
makayla
to
join
next
month
next
month
only
if
she
could
help
us
with.
E
The
vote
and
share
you
know
thoughts
about
about
sustainability's
role,
just
another
thought.
A
So
I
think
with
that
in
mind,
given
that
there
are
at
least
two
council
vacancies.
A
That
will
be
filled,
hopefully
imminently
we'll
hold
off
on
a
vote
for
this.
At
this
point,.
A
An
opportunity
to
see
what
the
commission
is
discussing
coacher
sometimes
spend
vice
chair.
A
That
role
since
our
chairperson
has
resigned,
and
then
we
also
have
a
secretary
and
a.
A
A
A
Have
a
treasurer
so
next
time
we
will
have
nominations
for
filling
these
positions.
If
you.
A
A
A
Been
up
to
especially
in
advocating
for
in
2022,
so
I
will
stop
sharing
the
screen.
H
Thanks
lauren,
so
it
sounded
like
on
the
matter
of
whether
or
not
to
also
amend
that
second.
H
Area
that
joseph
pointed
out,
it
sounds
like
it
sounds
like
we're,
leaning
towards.
H
H
H
Moving
on
then
to
reports
from
commissioners
would
either
colin
or
alicia.
H
Who
I
think
alicia
left,
maybe
would
colin
like
to
speak
to
to
the
just
transition
event.
J
J
Event,
I
I
did
want
to
check
in
with
a
few
things
on
the
flyers
and
in
regards.
J
To
registrations
we've
gotten
lauren,
but
I
guess
just
to
to
to
brief
everybody.
We've.
J
We've
sent
out
the
initial
email
blasts
to
all
of
our
stakeholders.
I
have
added
a
few
more.
J
J
J
Able
to
check
yeah
so
it
checked.
There's
14
people
registered
at
this
point
in
time.
A
A
Of
february,
which
is
a
friday,
but
they
are
on
the
west
coast.
So
that's
when
they're
available.
A
One
second,
this
event
is
in
coordination
with
environmental
justice
solutions
and
they
are.
A
Equitable
transition
due
to
climate
change,
so
the
facebook
event
is
up
working
on
getting.
A
On
the
city
calendar
and
then
I
can
work
with
you
all
to
get
additional
emails
out
and.
A
J
Perfect
much
appreciated
lauren
alicia
nigel
any
thoughts,
anything
to
add
yeah
thanks.
I.
H
G
70
people,
so
obviously
we
have
a
lot
of
space
to
fill.
So
if
anybody.
G
Has
more
ideas
about
who
to
invite?
That
would
be
great.
A
Obviously
difficult
to
predict
where
we'll
be
with
covet,
but
that
seems
prudent,
so
perfect.
J
I
was
wondering
either
commissioners:
does
this
excite
you
do
you
think
you
might
want.
E
Yeah
but
yeah
I
plan
to
attend.
We
actually,
remarkably,
don't
have
a
council
meeting
that
night.
E
And
I'll
share
this
in
my
council
report
in
maybe
the
the
meeting
prior
or
or
maybe.
E
The
two
meetings
prior
just
to
get
it
on
folks
radar
who
watch
council
meetings
as
well.
A
That'd
be
great,
I'm
also
going
to
try
to
reach
out
to
cats
and
see,
if
they're
available,
to
try
to.
L
H
Okay,
anything
else
to
add
colin
on
that
subject.
H
Okay,
moving
on
to
to
new
business,
would
our
new
commissioners
like
to.
C
C
Yeah,
I
just
I'm
glad
I
got
to
join
you
all.
I
wanted
to
be
involved
in
the.
C
Community-
and
it's
sounds
like
you
guys-
are
doing
really
good
work
here.
So
thanks.
G
I
guess
it's
my
turn
hi
guys.
My

is
emma
ferguson,
I'm

D
Indiana

state.
D
So

was
interesting.
I

D
Get

work
with
students
sometimes
so
I
really
enjoy
that
and
yeah
happy
to
be
here.
D
H
I
put
in
the
chat,
I
got
my
mba
at
ball
state
and
I
I
also
worked
for
five
years
at
ivy
tech.
H
H
Awesome,
okay
and
then
it
looks
like
we
do
have
time
to
discuss.
H
Report
that
was
done
recommending
the
merger
of
our
two
commissions
yeah.
I
I
think
this
is
a.
A
City
government
is
working
as
effectively
as
possible.
The
report
which
I
sent
to
you.
A
A
A
I
did
think
it
was
important
to
mention,
because
when
there
are
several
different
bodies
of.
A
A
Seats
and
similar
focuses
and
interests.
So
after
I
follow
up
on
the
findings
of
the
report,.
A
And
next
steps
I'll
keep
you
guys
posted
as
to
what
that
looks
like,
but
just
wanted
to
see
if.
A
It
give
you
a
heads
up
and
let
you
know
that
that
was
done
recently
and
was
a
press
release.
So.
H
I
have
a
question:
is
now
a
good
time
for
questions.
Yeah
sure
will
because
be
involved
in
the.
H
Decisions
regarding
the
regard
regarding
the
follow-up
of
these
recommendations
and
and
how.
H
A
A
You
an
update
on
that
next
meeting.
I
I
was
just
wondering
what
your
general
thoughts
were
and.
H
A
A
A
You
know
what
that
looks
like
and
there
was
a
section
in
there,
and
this
was
just
an
idea.
I
mean.
A
Has
quite
a
few
suits
as
well,
I
think
like
12
or
something
so.
That
would
look
like.
E
Thanks
yeah,
I
would
just
encourage
commissioners
to
read
if
not
the
whole.
E
The
environmental
commission
and
maybe
revisit
the
sections
of
bloomington
municipal
code
that.
E
Created
those
commissions,
so
let
me
see
if
I
can
drop
a
link
here
relatively
quickly,
so.
E
You
can
kind
of
see
their
preview
and
that
context,
I
think,
I'm
I
haven't
decided
how
I
feel
about.
E
Mistakes
a
little
bit
the
idea
that,
because
and
environmental
commission
are
largely
the.
E
Same
thing,
I
don't
really
think
that's
the
case,
although
I
I
do,
I
will
say
that
the.
E
Purview
of
sustainability
at
large
is
so
all-encompassing
that
it's
at
times
hard.
E
For
the
commission
to
focus-
and
I
I
you
know
I
I
guess
I
would
encourage
folks
to
think
about.
E
Different
models
of
of
what
you
know
clarifying
separate
lanes
could
look
like
if
the
commissions.
E
Remain
separate
or
how
they
could
combine
in
an
effective
way
like,
I
wonder
you
know
about.
E
Designated
committees
of
of
the
commission
or
working
groups,
whatever
you
want
to
call
it.
E
E
Know,
there's
probably
other
other
possibilities
too.
I
think
it's
just
worth
thinking
about.
E
That
I
I
can
say
as
a
council
member,
I
would
very
much
like
to
hear
from
as
many
because
and.
E
Ec
members
as
possible
about
about
their
thoughts
both
about
whether
or
not
the
commission.
E
The
administration
and
council
that
that
doesn't
always
happen,
but
hopefully
hopefully
it
is.
E
This
year
to
amend
title
two,
which,
which
is
where
all
the
boards
and
commissions
are.
E
Housed
so
I'll,
as
I
stop
talking
here,
I'll
I'll
drop,
a
link
to
the
bluetooth
school
code.
H
C
Yeah,
I
was
just
wondering
I'm
looking
at
the
boards
and
commissions
listings.
A
I
think
matt's
putting
the
code
in
the
chat,
so
the
sense
limited
question
of
sustainability.
A
Was
formed
in
like
2004
roughly
there
haven't
been
any
code
amendments,
one
possible
outcome
of.
A
A
A
Without
without
participation,
without
with
counsel
joseph.
B
If
you
wanted
to,
I
was
just
going
to
say
if
there's
a
way
to
kind
of
ride
the
coattails.
C
H
You
had
another
question
yeah.
Actually
I
wanted
to
comment
on
matt's.
B
B
H
By
merging
the
two
commissions
you
know
there
would
be
only
one
commission
and
half
as
many.
H
H
Doesn't
seem
to
be
mentioned
or
addressed
in
the
report
or
how
you
know,
I
think
important
these.
H
H
Said
that
can
be
addressed
in
other
ways
than
by
merging
the
commissions,
so
I
think
thanks
does.
H
E
Real
concerns
around
filling
commissions
over
time
and
the
as
well
as
staffing
them
and.
E
E
Members,
it's
you
know,
we
we
at
times
have
difficulty
keeping
keeping
commissions
filled.
E
And
that
might
be
reflective
of
a
lot
of
things.
But
among
those
might
just
be
that
you
know.
E
Willing
to
volunteer
their
time
the
way
you
all
are
you
know
for
for
a
commission
like
this,
so.
E
To
the
possibility
that
we're
overextended,
you
know
as
a
city
in
that
regard,
so
I
didn't
want
to.
E
Get
that
short
shrift
and
encourage
you
to
again,
you
know
kind
of
try
to
take.
Take
the.
E
Overall
recommendations
in
context
of
the
report
to
the
in
looking
at
the
specific,
because.
J
So
I've,
given
this
some
thought
as
well,
I
tend
to
agree
with
matt
about
this
issue
of
resources.
J
And
I
do
think
that
that's
valid
and
I
don't
think
that
it's
coming
from
the
place
of
austerity.
J
J
J
J
After
passing
year,
and
so
for
example,
the
congress
has
a
special
committee
on.
J
J
That's
pretty
cutting
edge
that
kind
of
breaks
down
this
notion
of
environment
versus
humanity.
H
Comment
about
the
sdgs,
you
know
it's
not.
We
don't
necessarily
in
our
city,
need
to
reinvent.
H
Okay,
is
there
any
other
new
business.
B
A
I
I
think
it
would
be
helpful
if,
between
this
meeting
and
the
next
climate
action
committee,.
A
And
once
the
meeting
notices
about
that
I
could
share
is
up.
I
can
share
that
with.
A
Anyone
that
is
present
on
either
commission
can
play
a
role
in
helping
inform
engagement
on.
A
Climate
action
plan
implementation,
since
it's
so
broad
and
affects
every
aspect
of
what.
A
A
consistent
liaison
from
this
commission
to
the
committee,
if
possible
and
if
that's
not.
A
H
And
maybe
we
can
then
figure
out,
like
you
mentioned
a
regular
liaison
for
that
meeting.
Okay,.
G
G
Just
transition
stuff,
but
I
think
maybe
once
that
you
know,
is
less
busy,
then
I
could
probably.
H
H
And
any
any
does
anyone
have
anything
else
to
add
before
we
adjourn.
