We
will
have
legislation
for
first
reading

to
provide
funds
for
such

and
the

of
the
costs
thereof
and
addressing
other
matters
connected
therewith.
We
will
then
go
to
the
legislation
for
second
reading
and
resolutions.
We
will
hear
a
motion
to
consider
ordinance
2005
on
the
same
night
it
was
introduced.
A
We
will
also
consider
resolution
2005,
a
resolution
from
the
Common
Council
requesting
the
food
and
beverage
tax
Advisory
Commission,
to
make
a
recommendation
for
expenditure
of
food
and
beverage
tax
revenues,
we'll
look
at
council
schedule
and
we
will
adjourn
just
to
set
the
stage
here
a
week
as
the
former
Prime
Minister
of
England
Harold
Wilson
said
is
a
long
time
in
politics.
A
lot
has
changed
since
the
last
time
we
met
on
March
4th.
We
are
living
through
an
event
unprecedented
in
our
lifetimes.
We
are
all
having
to
adjust.
A
As
you
all
know,
the
governor
of
the
state
has
issued
several
executive
orders
in
this
time
of
emergency.
One
of
them
has
permitted
us
to
conduct
business
entirely.
Online
dogs
are
going
to
bark,
children
are
going
to
trot
in.
Please
bear
with
us
as
we
navigate
meeting
in
this
new
way.
Here
are
some
of
the
ground
rules.
A
A
Members
of
the
public
on
this
virtual
meeting
will
have
both
audio
and
video
disabled
until
public
comment,
which
will
proceed
as
follows.
Members
of
the
public
wishing
to
speak
during
public
comment
should
click
participants
at
the
bottom
of
the
screen.
Then
click
raise
hand
when
a
member
of
the
public
is
called
upon
to
speak.
Council
staff
will
enable
both
audio
and
video
during
that
individuals
comment
then
disable
both
when
the
comment
is
over.
A
Council
members
and
relevant
city
staff
will
be
visible
on
the
screen
unless
they
turn
off
their
own
video,
as
president
I
will
chair
and
will
call
on
people
to
speak
just
as
at
normal
meetings.
When
someone
wishes
to
speak,
you
should
physically
raise
your
hand.
If
your
accounts
member
and
wait
for
the
chair
to
acknowledge
you,
we
will
do
our
best
to
accommodate
people
in
the
order
that
I
and
other
staff
see
them.
But
it's
not
going
to
be
perfect.
A
I
can
only
see
9
people
on
my
screen,
I'm
going
to
have
to
scan
to
make
sure
I
can
see
everybody.
So
with
that
to
comply
with
the
executive
order
issued
by
the
governor,
we
do
have
to
formally
change
our
for
meeting
we're
not
going
to
entertain
motions
to
ensure
that
we
are
complying
with
executive
order.
Counselor,
Piedmont,
Smith
I
believe
you're
gonna
make
the
first
notion.
A
G
Thank
you.
I
moved
up
the
council
suspend
its
rules
to
conduct
this
meeting
and
future
meetings
electronically
during
the
public
health
emergency,
in
accordance
with
the
governor's
executive
order,
2004
and
2009
in
any
future
executive
orders
or
related
guidance
provided
by
the
public
access
councilor
in
the
state
of
Indiana.
G
As
part
of
this
motion,
I
also
move
that
the
council
affirm
the
decision
to
conduct
this
meeting
electronically
and
to
suspend
the
state
requirement
of
explicitly
adopting
a
policy
for
electronic
participation
and
to
allow
members
to
participate
in
meetings
electronically,
pursuant
to
applicable
state
guidance
and
instruction.
Second,.
A
D
H
A
The
executive
orders
from
the
governor
state
that
any
business
we
conduct
has
to
be
considered
essential
or
it
shouldn't
it's
not
appropriate
to
be
taking
up
taking
up
at
this
time.
In
performing
my
duty
under
blue
municipal
code,
204
7:02
approve
meeting
agendas.
I
have
determined
that
the
items
on
tonight's
agenda
are
in
fact
essential
matters
critical
to
the
operation
of
city
government,
with
that
I
will
now
call
for
the
next
motion
from
Council
of
a
few
months.
Myth.
G
In
addition,
the
council
president
shall
have
the
authority
to
cancel
or
reschedule
any
meetings
deemed
non-essential
or
as
necessary
to
conduct
essential
business.
The
council
may
also
by
majority
vote,
decide
how
to
place
time
limits
on
matters
or
speakers
before
the
council,
including
delegating
such
authority
to
the
presiding
officer.
G
A
C

C
A
I
Me
a
loud
and
clear
all
right,
I
sincerely
appreciate
the
chance
to
be
with
you
all,
virtually
and
I
appreciate
everybody
who's
weighing
in
watching
cats
other
ways,
social
media.
The
last
time
we
were
officially
together,
not
quite
in
this
way,
but
in
such
a
meeting
was
five
weeks
ago
at
the
State
of
the
City
Council
meeting.
A
lot
has
happened
in
our
community
country
and
planet.
Since
that
time,
tens
of
thousands
of
students
have
been
sent
home
mid
semester.
I
Thousands
of
our
residents
have
lost
or
risk
losing
jobs.
Hundreds
of
small
businesses
are
worried
whether
they
will
be
around
next
year
or
next
month
and,
of
course,
at
bottom.
All
of
us
are
deeply
concerned
about
our
health
and
the
health
of
our
families
and
neighbors
appreciate
the
chance
to
provided
an
update
this
evening.
As
a
reminder,
it
was
less
than
three
months
ago
in
the
City
Council
Chambers
that
we
all
took
our
oath
of
office,
at
which
time
I
noted
that
we
were
in
a
climate
emergency.
I
That
emergency
still
exists
with
its
two
big
challenges
of
first
doing
our
part
to
protect
our
planet
from
climate
change
and,
second,
making
sure
that
all
of
our
people
have
places
of
dignity
and
respect
in
that
future.
But
in
the
interim
weeks
this
second
and
emergency
has
arisen
and
has
moved
to
the
front
burner
center
stage.
We
face
a
public
health
emergency
from
the
corona
virus,
a
global
pandemic
like
none
in
the
last
100
years,
and
it
demands
all
hands
on
deck.
I
We've
lost
neighbors
to
the
disease
and
its
impact
is
already
dramatic
and
increasing
we're
doing
many
things
that
we
can
and
should
be
doing
to
respond.
Emergencies
are
declared
at
local
state,
national
and
global
levels.
We
are
mobilizing
to
protect
lives
not
only
from
the
direct
health
threats,
but
also
to
assure
our
safety
net,
and
our
economy
are
protected
as
fully
as
possible.
As
is
said,
we
are
in
a
marathon
not
a
sprint,
really
we're
in
a
marathon
that
starts
with
a
sprint
and
we're
still
in
the
sprint
phase.
I
Let
me
just
give
some
key
updates
of
key
players.
First,
our
city
government
itself
is
very
focused
on
our
role.
I
created
a
continuity
of
city
government
task
force,
which
has
met
six
times
in
two
weeks,
implementing
new
protocols
to
protect
our
employees
while
continuing
to
deliver
our
critical
and
basic
government
services.
We
are
responding
to
the
ongoing
governor's
orders,
including
the
recent
stay
at
home
changes,
closing
playgrounds
this
morning,
all
city
buildings
to
public
access,
adjusting
to
life
with
physical
distance.
I
While
continuing
to
provide
our
services,
we
are
continually
evaluating
risks
and
threats
to
our
services
from
the
water
system,
to
Public,
Safety
and
implementing
new
protocols.
Just
some
examples:
police
have
changed
their
operations
to
protect
officers
from
infection,
including
eliminating
physical
role,
calls
taking
reports
not
in
person
or
only
outside
a
home
rather
than
inside.
Now.
Water
bills
are
no
longer
paid
in
person
and
we
are
isolating
our
water
plants
and
their
workers.
Fire
stations
are
separating
crews
from
each
other
and
not
allowing
public
entrance.
I
Our
health
system
is
in
full
swing,
doing
its
best
to
prepare
to
meet
major
demands
led
by
the
County
Health
Department
and
IU
Health.
Our
health
professionals
have
invoked
their
emergency
plans
and
are
assembling
supplies
of
personal
protective
equipment
like
gowns,
masks
and
gloves
medical
equipment,
including
isolation
beds
and
ventilators,
and
needed
personnel.
I
Just
very
briefly,
the
federal
help
we
expect
to
be
passed
imminently
includes
direct
payments
to
taxpayers,
twelve
hundred
dollars
to
each
plus
five
hundred
dollars
per
child
to
low
and
moderate
income,
households
significantly
expanded
and
enhanced
unemployment
benefits,
emergency
loans
to
small
businesses
who
retain
employment,
and
they
are
convertible
to
a
grant
loans
to
any
business
in
distress
from
the
Federal
Reserve
and
special
support
for
our
hospitals
and
health
systems.
There
may
be
new
funds
available
through
city
and
county
government
as
well,
and
all
of
us
as
residents
are
also
doing
our
part.
I
I
If
you
have
no
safe
home
reach
out
and
get
to
help
being
organized,
we
all
should
manage
our
household
needs.
For
example,
assembling
several
weeks
of
basic
supplies
in
case
someone
gets
sick,
don't
go
out
at
all
if
you're
sick
watch
out
for
and
help
those
at
higher
risk
stay
at
home.
As
much
as
you
can,
let
me
close
with
just
a
few
points
and
then
we'll
open
up
to
questions.
I
I
We
will
get
through
the
health
crisis
with
smart
actions,
but
not
without
pain
and
loss,
and
we
also
have
to
deal
with
major
challenges
to
our
safety
net
and
our
economy,
both
of
which
also
threatened
very
real
damage
and
harm.
I
do
want
to
note
our
community
is
stepping
up
and
standing
up
in
many
powerful,
inspiring
ways.
We
can
take
care
of
each
other
and
take
care
of
Bloomington.
I
Please
show
your
appreciation
to
so
many
who
keep
our
communities
functioning
in
these
challenging
times.
I
will
share
regular
public
information,
presenting
to
you
as
council
and
other
ways,
so
we
hope
no
one
feels
out
of
we
welcome
direct
inquiries
as
well
through
our
office
phone
through
email
through
the
website.
I
A
A
J
You
thank
you
Mary
Hamilton,
and
thank
you
as
well
to
city
staff.
They've
done
amazing
work
this
week
and
for
the
last
actually
married
different
kinds
of
federal
support.
You
talked
about
directing
jobs
also
talked
about
assistance
to
hospitals
and
health
care
facilities.
Can
you
say
a
little
bit
more
about
that?
I?
Don't.
I
Know
a
lot
of
the
details.
That's
in
the
federal
package
that
is
a
pending
approval,
I
understand
they
may
do
some
things
like
changing
Medicare
reimbursement
rates.
There
may
be
some
direct
support
of
public
health
systems
and
hospital
systems
which
they
surely
do
need,
but
that's
really
all
I
know
at
this
point
and
I
hope
it
comes
okay,.
G
H
Did
I'm
not
sure
it's
the
same
one,
but
I
think
it
would
be
helpful,
perhaps
not
this
evening,
but
at
our
next
meeting
or
at
a
future
meeting
to
try
to
determine
the
extent
of
this
crisis
when
it
will
likely
take
for
Indiana
for
our
community
I
know
that
it
requires
more
data.
That's
not
necessarily
forthcoming
right.
Now
we
don't
know
the
number
of
infected
in
the
community
or
in
Indiana.
H
You
know
we
can
only
estimate,
but
as
we
administer
more
tests,
maybe
that
will
be
clearer
and
we
could
at
least
put
sort
of
bounds
on
D
on
the
infection
rate
and
a
number
of
caseloads
and
so
forth.
So
we
we
have
a
understanding
of
the
extent
of
this
and
how
long
it
may
persist
and
I
don't
know
who
would
have
that
information?
Perhaps
there
are
modelers
who
are
working
at
and
at
any
other
University
or
at
the
State
Board
of
Health,
but
I
think
that
would
be
very
helpful
for
local
communities,
including
your
own.
I
Thank
You
councilman
Morello
I'll
make
a
couple
comments.
You
know.
The
data
of
course
is
very
sparse
because
of
so
little
testing
that
goes
on,
that
will
change
and
as
more
tests
are
available,
our
numbers
are
surely
going
to
rise
quite
dramatically
in
terms
of
people
infected
by
the
with
suffering
from
kovat
19,
and
you
know
we,
the
official
numbers
are
at
the
state
website
health
department,
Monroe
County
has
gone
from
1
to
4
in
the
last
few
days.
I
I
Not
I,
haven't
I
haven't
seen
it
yet,
but
I
hope
there
will
be
some
modeling
that
will
start
to
look
at
the
pacing
that
we
may
see
the
numbers
we
may
see
as
soon
as
that
is
available.
I
hope
to
be
able
to
share
that
with
all
of
us
and
that
does
come
out
of
the
health
system
and
the
in
the
academic
world.
But
I
do
think.
That's
really
important
for
us
to
have
a
we're
in
this.
I
We
know
for
a
number
of
weeks
and
we
can
kind
of
get
previews
from
other
communities
and
states
and
have
seen
the
pacing
that
they're
going
through
their
states
and
communities
that
are
a
week
ahead
of
us
a
few
weeks
ahead
of
us
or
three
weeks,
and
we
can
get
some
sense
of
that.
Though
each
each
community
is
a
little
different.
A
G
Yes,
I
was
wondering
during
if
there
was
any
coordination
between
house
care
providers
who
have
access
to
personal
protective
equipment
and
employers,
grocery
stores,
pharmacies
and
other
large
employers
of
people
who
have
to
work
to
be
able
to
provide
their
store
personnel
with
personal
protective
equipment.
Has
there
been
any
coordination
of
that
sort
so.
I
There's
a
lot
of
coordination
going
on
among
many
of
those
institutions
from
various
health
care
institutions
to
our
own
public
safety
organizations
to
Indiana
University
to
employers
and
others
who
are
who
are
communicating
together
on
the
on
the
stores
of
people
near
personal
protective
equipment.
The
needs
for
and
such
it
is
a
frustration.
I
know
not
only
for
the
health
care
workers
who
so
desperately
depend
upon
it.
I
The
masks
the
gowns,
the
gloves,
as
well
as
many
other
people,
is,
for
example,
our
public
safety
officers
and
many
others,
and
the
lack
of
kind
of
integrated
national
planning
on
that.
I
can
say
that
most
of
the,
in
my
view,
most
of
the
kind
of
ultimate
decisions
and
recommendations
about
what's
needed
and
where
it's
needed
and
how
to
be
sure
to
have
it
in
the
most
essential
places,
is
driven
by
the
health
system.
I
The
health
professionals,
who
are
trying
to
assure
that
those
gowns
masks
and
gloves,
as
well
as
the
beds
and
the
ventilators,
are
going
to
be
available
where
they're
needed
I
know.
Also,
there
are
a
lot
of
entities
working
together
to
increase
the
supply
of
all
kinds
of
that
PPE
and
in
fact,
things
like
3d
printers
that
the
University
and
some
private
sector
folks
have
activated
to
produce
more
ventilators
by
making
the
appropriate
parts
and
that
kind
of
thing
and
similarly
I
know
a
local
company
is
trying
to
help
figure
out.
How
to
sorry.
I
H
G
So
I
understand
that
health
care
providers,
of
course,
are
having
these
kind
of
discussions,
but
what
about
Kroger
or
CBS
or
blooming
foods?
You
know
the
other
non
health
professionals
who
are
still
on
the
job
and
interacting
with
people.
Do
you
know
if
those
companies
have
been
able
to
to
get
masks
for
their
employees?
Yeah.
I
I
think
I
mean
you
know
we're
an
employer
as
a
city
and
we
think
about
where
do
we
use
mass
and
how
do
we
use
them?
What
numbers
and
I
know
I'm
confident
that
many
of
those
employers
you
mentioned
and
many
others
are
looking
at
their
needs
and
projections
I
think
what
I
can
say
about
that
is
given
the
fact
that
we
don't
have
masks
for
everybody,
I
think
the
it
is
the
health
system.
I
It
is
the
public
health
professionals
led
by
our
public
County,
Health
Department,
the
state
system
and,
frankly,
all
the
way
up
through
the
emergency
management
system.
The
national
system
that
is
helping
lead,
the
the
the
efforts
to
increase
the
masks.
I
wish
we
had
more,
but
it's
it's
from
my
perspective.
It's
kind
of
up
to
the
health
professionals
to
help
guide
that
and
I
know.
Employers
are
talking
to
them
about
that
as
well.
And,
unfortunately,
you
know
this
is
a.
This
is
a
moving
picture,
but
it's
where
we
are
cosmo.
A
H
The
press
release
includes
a
statement
that
says
the
company
now
plans
an
additional
steps
designed
to
protect
the
health
and
safety
of
our
associates
and
customers.
As
a
result,
Kroger
shoppers
may
soon
see
associates
wearing
protective
masks
and
gloves.
Personal
protective
equipment
is
in
short
supply
across
the
country
and
we
fully
support
America's
health
care
workers
having
first
priority
to
obtain
it.
H
So
so
they
are
taking
steps.
It
is
clear
that
we
have
a
shortage
of
masks
and
clearly
health
care
workers
take
a
priority,
but
it's
something
that
we
need
to
consider
and
I'm
glad
that
that
Kroger
and
other
retailers
in
our
community
are
stepping
up
to
to
provide
that's
social
distancing
that
will
help
prevent
the
transmission.
F
F
Was
if
somebody
appears
that
they
have
an
illness
use
protective
gear,
don't
go
in,
have
them
tested,
it
was
a.
It
was
a
general
guideline
and
it
didn't
offer
much
in
the
way
of
extra
protective
gear,
but
it
it
talked
about
some
common
sense
on
if
somebody
appears
to
have
been
infected
or
if
you
know,
and
the
worker
it
sell
themselves
to
stay
home,
if,
indeed,
there's
any
illness
that
might
be
present
and
it
might
be
infectious,
and
so
that's
that's
about
all
I
want
to
say
about
that.
Thank.
I
We
need
to
support
the
allocation
of
these
resources
so
that
it's
not
just
all
the
highest
bidder
against
the
highest
bidder,
to
try
to
to
try
to
gather
up
a
bunch
of
these
these,
these
equipment
that
are
so
important
to
share,
among
so
many
people
who
need
them,
and
anyway,
I
appreciate
all
the
information
and
and
we'll
keep
we'll
keep
watching
that
it's
a
daily
changing
situation
we'll
continue
to
seek
to
purchase
it
too,
as
we
have
from
the
city.
But
again
we
need
to.
I
K
Thank
you
first
I'm
gonna
thank
the
mayor
for
his
report.
Thank
you
very
much
and
I
do
appreciate
the
metaphor
that
this
is
a
marathon,
but
it's
a
sprint
first
book
and
we're
in
this
print
phase.
Now.
Having
said
that
and
I
know
it's
early,
but
do
you
have
any
information
or
any
knowledge
of
possible
reimbursement
of
municipalities
on
some
of
the
funding
we
may
use
from
either
state
or
federal
sources
and
I
know
it's
early
in
the
game
in
that
it
may
be
premature.
I
Early
first
I
would
say
we
are
not
declining
to
do
anything
at
the
moment
because
of
cost
we
are,
we
are
taking
all
the
steps
that
we
think
are
appropriate
and
can
take
to
maximize
the
health
protection
and
the
economy
and
the
social
safety
net
protection
that
we
can.
So,
of
course,
we
will
run
into
cost
questions.
I
think
the
main
thing
I
would
say
is
we
do
expect
reimbursement
through
both
the
federal
system
and
then
through
the
state
we
are.
We
are
very
intentionally
at
fire.
I
Chief
Jason
Moore
is
very
experienced
in
this
and
we're
very
intentionally
setting
up
the
systems
to
track
all
of
those
expenses.
Today,
last
week,
the
week
before
that
that
relate
to
the
emergency
response,
because
we
do
think
there
will
be
significant
reimbursement,
we
just
don't
know
what
that'll
be.
I
That's
that's
true
for
a
lot
of
our
private
sector
to
you
know
they
may
be
able
to
get
reimbursed
for
payroll
and
other
things,
which
is
which
is
really
important,
and
that's
something
that
our
our
continuity
of
city
government
is
paying
a
lot
of
attention
to,
and
it's
also
something
the
economic
recovery.
Folks
are
gonna,
be
paying
attention
to
thank.
H
A
I
Maybe
maybe
I
could
go
ahead.
Mr.
mayor,
maybe
I
could
close
out
if
you
will.
Certainly
if
there
are
more
questions
for
me,
I'm
happy
to
be
around
but
I
listen,
I
appreciate
all
that
all
of
you
are
doing
we're
gonna,
be
in
this
together
for
a
little
while
and
I
look
forward
to
working
on
this.
With
you
continuing
to
report
to
you
and
and
just
as
to
the
agenda
tonight,
I
just
want
to
add
my
support.
I
appreciate
your
support.
I
hope
it
will
be
for
the
CBU
bond
refunding
speaking
of
financing.
I
That
will
save
us
a
couple
million
bucks
which
is
gonna
come
in
handy
and
second,
the
the
potential
redirection
of
the
food
and
beverage
tax
proceeds
which
there's
a
lot
of
details
to
be
worked
out.
But
we
look
forward
to
doing
that
with
you
and
support
the
move
forward
tonight
on
both
of
those
things
and
I'll
follow
wait
if
you
have
more
questions,
but
thank
you
and
I
hope
to
be
seeing
you
again
soon.
Virtually
yep
Thank.
A
L
H
L
The
first
thing
that
I
would
say
is
testing
is
not
available
for
just
anybody
who
may
want
it.
There
is
testing
available
through
the
hospital
which
may
use
private
labs
or
may
use
the
state
lab.
Other
providers
may
have
may
be
able
to
take
specimens
and
tapes
send
those
off
to
private
labs,
but
there
is
criteria
for
using
those
and,
first
and
foremost,
it
is
those
who
are
the
most
vulnerable.
L
Those
who
are
hospitalized
who
have
symptoms
who
may
need
care
and
we
need
to
know
if
they're
infected
and
how
that
will
affect
their
treatment,
also
health
care
providers
and
people
in
long-term
care
facilities.
So
there's
a
set
of
criteria.
That's
really
used
right
now,
and
that
does
quite
honestly
limit
testing.
L
So
testing
is
available,
it's
becoming
more
available,
but
it
is
still
limited.
So
the
two
things
that
I
would
say:
first,
if
someone
thinks
that
they
may
be
ill
with
Co,
bed,
19
or
they're
just
concerned,
they
can
use
iu.
Health,
spiritual,
app
or
CDC
also
has
what
they
call
a
self
tracker,
so
that
you
can
use
those
and
it
will
kind
of
walk
you
through
the
steps
that,
yes,
maybe
you
should
be
tested
and
then
try
to
connect
you
to
that
testing
or
they
may
be
able
to
guide
you.
L
This
sounds
more
like
something
else,
or
this
is
what
you
need
to
do
so
it
kind
of
walks
you
through
those
assessments,
I
realize
not.
Everybody
has
access
to
a
virtual,
app
or
the
internet,
so
that
would
leave
people
really
using
the
telephone
to
call
their
provider
and
get
guidance
on
that.
So
I
would
be
hopeful
that
down
the
road
we'll
have
testing
available
in
a
more
complete
whoever
needs
it
kind
of
way,
but
I
think
that
that
will
come
in
a
stair
step.
L
H
Thank
you.
Thank
you
for
answering
that
I
think
it
really
I
mean
the
the
corollary
to
here
here
is
that,
if,
because
of
lack
of
testing
and
because
of
the
fact,
people
can
be
asymptomatic
for
a
long
time,
but
still
infectious,
that
it
is
true
that
you
should
probably
assume
that
anyone
could
be
infected.
In
other
words,
that's
why
we
have
the
self
isolation.
L
L
We
do
know
that
the
incubation
period
can
can
be
long,
but
we
also
know
that
most
people
will
develop
symptoms
within
5
days
and
then
recovery
for
most
people,
and
this
is
again
why
we
want
to
test
the
people
most
at
risk
for
complications
right
now,
with
testing
being
limited,
is
that
the
majority
of
people
will
have
mild
symptoms
and
be
able
to
recover
at
home.
So
we
want
people
if
they
are
sick
or
they
think
they
may
have
been
exposed
and
certainly
followed.
L
This
stay
at
home
order
so
that
we
can
monitor
ourselves
and
if
we,
you
know,
feel
like,
we
are
getting
worse,
that
temperatures
are
rising.
There's
a
real
shortness
of
breath.
You
have
underlying
health
conditions,
then
certainly
call
your
doctor.
First,
we
don't
want
people
just
showing
up
to
providers.
We
want
them
to
call
ahead.
First,
so
that
they
can
plan
appropriately
and
we're
not
inadvertently,
perhaps
exposing
someone
without
realizing
it.
L
A
L
I'll,
try
not
to
make
you
know
I'm
too
long,
but
it's
the
mayor
and-
and
you
pointed
out,
the
governor
has
stayed
home
orders
in
place
and
we
went.
We
support
those.
It
is
a
strategy
to
reduce
the
spread
of
Cove
in
nineteen,
and
that
includes
social
distancing.
It's
a
health
strategy
to
reduce
disease
transmission,
so
it
is
important
to
save
lives
and
to
keep
our
hospitals
from
being
overwhelmed.
L
L
So
far-
and
this
is
as
of
this
morning
so
Indiana
State
Department
of
Health
has
confirmed
477
cases
in
Indiana,
and
that
is
covering
at
least
51
counties
and
that's
all
since
the
beginning
of
March.
They
do
have
a
dashboard
that
people
can
look
at
daily.
It's
updated
every
morning
with
each
County
how
many
cases
they
have
confirmed
and
unfortunately
we
have
had
deaths
in
Indiana
and
it
will
list
those
and
also
the
number
of
tests.
That's
being
done
so
I
do
want
to
say
something
about
testing
and
the
dashboard
it.
L
One
of
the
reasons
that
we're
pulling
people
there
to
monitor
those
numbers
is
because
we
want
to
keep
them
as
solid
and
concrete
as
we
can.
We
don't
want
to
be
counting
somebody
twice.
We
don't
want
to
not
count
somebody
private
labs
have
to
report
and
they
report
to
the
State
Health
Department.
So
there
is
a
little
bit
of
a
lag
time.
If
a
test
is
done
at
the
state
lab,
then
they
have
those
results
and
they
can
add
those
to
that
count
very
quickly.
L
A
private
lab
there's
a
process
and
they're
going
to
have
to
submit
that
to
the
state
lab,
and
then
it's
got
to
get
kind
of
in
that
queue
to
be
added.
So,
yes,
there
is
a
little
bit
of
a
lag
time
that
you
may
see
in
those
reported
cases,
but
that's
the
best
way
for
us
to
just
make
sure
that
we
have
a
central
place
to
follow
those
at
this
time.
L
I
would
say
we
know
that
there
is
infection
throughout
the
United
States
in
Indiana
and
in
Monroe
County,
and
so
yes,
we
have
to
act
as
though
it
is
there
and
wherever
we
go,
we
could
encounter
it.
I
do
encourage
people
to
try
to
keep
up
with
facts
versus
fear
and
there's
lots
of
fear
and
rumors
and
things
that
go
around
so
we're
really
trying
to
direct
people
is
the
Center
for
Disease
Control
in
the
state
Department
of
Health
who
for
current
up-to-date
information
and
guidance.
It's
coming
out
rapidly.
L
I
know
a
couple
of
you
already
mentioned
new
guidance.
We
have
staff
who
are
looking
at
guidance
every
day
and
trying
to
keep
us
up-to-date
so
that
we
can
share
that
with
the
entities
that,
if
those
two,
so
we
are
sending
things
out
to
businesses
and
retail
food
establishments
to
daycares
or
schools,
whoever
it
might
be
really
on
a
daily
basis-
is
that
those
updates
come
out.
So
for
the
most
up-to-date
guidance
look
at
those
sites.
We
are
posting
on
our
website.
We
have
links
to
them.
L
We
also
have
information
on
our
local
press
releases
and
that
kind
of
information.
The
other
things
a
couple
new
things
that
that
I
would
say
there
are
a
couple
new
numbers
that
might
be
important
for
people
to
know.
With
some
of
these
orders
and
the
different
things
that
are
going
on
right
now,
there
is
Indiana
essential
business
and
operations
list
that
can
be
found
on
the
state
website.
L
So
if
you
want
to
know
if
your
business
is
among
those
that
are
considered
essential-
or
you
have
questions
about
that,
that's
a
good
resource
and
there's
a
new
hotline,
it's
critical
industries
hotline
and
it
opened
yesterday
morning
and
it's
to
help
guide
businesses
and
industries
with
the
executive
orders.
So
does
it
apply
to
you
so
I'm
gonna
give
you
this
number
and
the
website,
but
it
is
also
on
our
website
and
it's
at
the
State
Health
Department
website.
L
So
we
do
want
people
to
check
those
out.
We've
been
trying
to
get
information
again
out
to
businesses
to
let
them
know,
there's
also
some
resources
that
are
available
to
businesses
and
we've
been
trying
to
send
those
out
to
them.
We'll
say
this
is
kind
of
response
to
one
of
the
questions
earlier,
as
well,
with
the
county
emergency
order
that
also
allowed
us
to
send
up
and
apply
for
hopefully
to
get
FEMA
money.
So
we
hope
that
there'll
be
some
relief
from
FEMA
as
well.
So
again,
you
talked
about
chief
Moore
having
experience
with
documentation.
L
The
mayor
talked
about
that,
and
so
it
is
important
for
people
to
document
what
they're
spending
on
this,
so
that
when
funds
become
available
and
we're
doing
those
assessments
that
we
have
that
available
a
couple
of
things
I.
You
also
asked
about
masks
and
I
will
tell
you
that
PPE
is
another
concern.
It's
a
concern
for
us,
and
certainly
when
you
have
a
pandemic
and
the
need
is
beyond
what
the
capacity
is.
L
We
have
very
strict
guidelines
about
where
that
goes
and
and
how
its
distributed
I'm
very
pleased
to
say
that
there
are
people
stepping
up
to
say:
hey
I,
have
these
masks
that
I'm
not
using
or
I've,
had
these
for
a
while
I
had
them
for
another
use
and
they
are
being
able
to
be
distributed
sometimes
to
our
healthcare
providers,
but
also
to
some
of
those
entities
that
may
need
them
and
not
be
on
those
lists.
So
the
hospitals
are
also
tracking
what
they
need
locally.
L
We
track
people
can
report
to
us
so
long-term
care
facilities,
for
instance,
can
report
if,
when
they're
getting
low-
and
so
we
know
when
to
request
those
from
the
state,
but
there
just
isn't
an
abundance,
and
with
that
there
are
people,
you've,
probably
seen
making
homemade
masks
and
while
they
are
not
approved
for
medical
care,
necessarily
they
can
be
helpful
if
you
have
nothing
else.
So
there
is
guidance
on
that
and
we
are.
L
We
have
people
who
are
donating
those
and
we're
trying
to
get
those
out
to
some
of
the
places
that
feel
like
they
need
and
want
masks,
but
may
not
have
them
available
and
in
those
cases
where
it
may
be
better
to
have
that
than
to
have
nothing.
But
I
do
want
to
make
a
couple
comments
about
homemade
masks
and
just
having
masks
and
using
them
when
you've
not
been
used
to
using
them
or
taking
care
of
them.
So
we
don't
want
mask
wearing
to
give
people
a
sense
of
false
security
security.
L
They
still
may
not
protect
you.
They
may
offer
you
some
protection,
they
need
to
be
taken,
put
on
and
taken
off
properly
or
they
can
support.
You
can
spread
germs
that
way,
and
we
want
to
avoid
touching
our
face
with
our
hands
right.
We
want
to
wash
our
hands
well
wash
them
often
and
avoid
touching
our
face,
which
is
very
difficult.
I'm
I'm,
I
myself,
find
it
very
hard
to
do.
L
I,
wear
glasses,
I
want
to
touch
them
all
the
time,
so
I
so
I
understand
and
even
from
personal
experience
with
having
to
wear
some
of
these
face,
masks
I
found
that
I
was
messing
with
it
all
the
time.
So,
if
you're
touching
something
and
your
hands
are
contaminated
and
then
you're
touching
the
mask,
then
you
may
be
spreading
germs
that
way
as
well.
So
again,
just
can
be
a
false
sense
of
security,
and
some
of
the
material
may
get
warm
and
hold
moisture.
L
So
just
think
about
those
things
when
you're
using
masks
learn
how
to
put
them
off
how
to
take
them
off
properly,
so
that
that
would
be
my
most
important
thing
to
say
about
that.
The
other
thing
that
I
would
just
say
is
that
we
want
to
thank
everyone
for
their
efforts
in
this
pandemic,
and
I
do
mean
everybody.
It
is
disrupted,
lives
and
livelihoods,
it's
difficult
for
everyone,
and
we
appreciate
the
understanding,
the
support
and
everyone
understanding
that
we
have
a
role
and
a
responsibility
in
this.
So
the
public
sector
has
a
role
and
they're.
L
We
know
that
they're
getting
hit
hard
public
and
public
service
has
a
role,
and
this
is
a
good
time
to
talk
about
the
public
health
system.
You
know
when
we
oftentimes
people,
they
either
think
public
health,
they
think
Hospital
or
they
think
health
department,
but
the
public
health
system
includes
city
and
county
government.
It
includes
our
businesses
and
our
individuals
and
our
schools
all
the
different
partners
that
we
talked
about
that
we're
working
with.
So
we
want
to
thank
everybody
for
their
efforts.
A
Thank
you,
Miss
Caudill,
and
as
if
to
underscore
your
words
as
you
were
speaking,
the
New
York
Times,
published
an
article
describing
the
surge
in
cases
at
hospitals
in
New.
York
City,
as
one
doctor
is
not
describing
it
as
apocalyptic
thirteen
people
died
at
one
Hospital
in
the
past
24
hours
in
New,
York
City
from
the
coronavirus
to
that
end,
I'd
also
like
to
call
on
councilmember
Flaherty,
who
is
the
chair
of
the
climate
action
resilience
committee
for
a
brief
report.
If
he
has
additional
things
to
add.
Yes,.
M
M
The
climate
action
resilience
committee
is
the
council
committee
that
took
up
this
proposal
and
had
begun
to
hold
public
meetings
on
the
topic,
along
with
reaching
out
to
other
members
of
the
local
income
tax
Council.
However,
amid
the
current
pandemic
and
public
health
crisis,
we
feel
that
it's
not
appropriate
at
this
time
to
recommend
any
change
to
the
local
income
tax
rate.
Of
course,
this
does
not
mean
that
the
global
climate
crisis
is
any
less
pressing
or
that
we
are
taking
it
any
less
seriously.
L
Hope
is
getting
a
little
I
wasn't
sure.
Right
now
the
hospitals
are
IU.
Health
has
a
central
place
and
inventory
so
I
I
know
that
they
are
watching
it
very
closely
so
that
they
can
disperse
PPE
where
it
needs
to
go.
As
I
said,
we
have
other
places
notifying
us
and
we
kind
of
feed
that
up
the
the
channel
to
the
state
so
that
if
we
need
PPE
as
a
community
that
we
can
get
that,
we
do
have
guidelines
about
where
it
goes.
L
H
F
L
Do
I
have
to
plead
a
little
bit
that
I
don't
have
that
with
me
right
now
to
give
you
the
hospital,
certainly
again,
they've
got
plans
for
what
they
can
expand
within
their
hospital
setting.
What
what
they
might
be
able
to
move
among
their
hospitals
and
I
know
that
they're
working
on
plans
for
what,
if
we
needed
to
expand
this
into
other
locations,
so
I
don't
have
an
exact
number
for
you
tonight.
But,
yes,
those
numbers
do
exist
and
are
being
monitored.
I
Just
add
and
thank
you,
miss
Caudill
for
all
that
information.
That's
very
helpful
appreciate
you
being
here.
I
know
that
the
hospital
which
has
a
little
over
200
total
beds,
I,
think
and
then
mineral
hospital,
I'm
I,
don't
know
their
count
offhand,
but
one
of
the
things
they're
doing
is
significantly
changing
their
discharge
procedures.
I
You
know,
they've
also
stopped
elective
surgeries
and
other
things
and
they're
changing
their
discharge
procedures
to
try
to
accelerate
the
availability
of
their
beds
as
needed,
using
collaborative
work
with
other
places
where
they
can
discharge
patients
who
don't
need
the
hospital
level
coverage
or
can
get
a
different
rehab
place,
and
all
that
so
they're.
There
they're
very
much
trying
to
maximize
that.
But
you
know
I,
wouldn't
we're
also
working
very
closely
together,
Indiana
University
and
this
governments
and
in
the
Health
System
to
look
at
if
we
need
facilities
to
increase
beds.
Where
would
they
go?
I
I
know.
Ivy
Tech
is
working
closely
and
has
already
offered
that
with
the
Health
IU
Health
Hospital
we're
in
touch
with
Indiana
University,
there's
a
there's,
obviously
a
lot
of
empty
space.
That's
not
being
used
right
now
that
could
be
stood
up
for
the
surge
that
we
see
in
other
communities
and
there's
a
lot
of
planning
going
on
for.
Thank
you.
H
Just
briefly,
I
wanted
to
mention
that,
as
well
as
the
city
continuity
of
city
government
meetings,
which
I
have
to
say,
I've,
been
very
impressed
with
the
administration.
The
mayor
and
and
department
heads
I
think
they've
made
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
progress
in
the
past
weeks
and
I
wanted
to
mention
that
this
Co
CG
is
also
developing
subgroups
to
determine
our
needs
and
actions.
H
Subsequently.
If
this
continues
for
months
three
months,
six
months
a
year
in
the
future,
I'm
on
a
continuity
of
city,
government
supply
chain,
subgroup
and
I
just
wanted
to
mention
what
that
was.
It's
caused
of
chief,
more
chief
D
cough
director
of
utilities
and
director
Bloomington
transportation,
loom
a
and
IT
Director
Rick
Gates,
and
the
purpose
of
the
group
is
to
ensure
that
operations
of
our
more
critical
needs
sitting
community
in
the
event
of
material
shortages
due
to
supply
chain
disruption.
H
So
things
like
disruption
of
manufacturing
or
transportation
disruption,
economic
fight,
financial
sector
dislocation,
and
things
like
that
that
we
have
those
types
of
materials
regardless.
So
those
sort
of
operations
include
things,
of
course,
like
fire
and
and
and
police
Public,
Safety,
sanitation,
water
treatment
in
delivery,
internet
cellular
communications,
internal
communications,
public
transportation
and
so
forth.
H
So
the
initial
of
the
group's
initial
meeting
was
just
this
past
Monday
and
we,
which
is
March
23rd.
We
developed
a
list
of
questions
to
answer
before
our
next
meeting
to
determine
what
actions
we
need
to
take
to
respond
to
possible
shortages,
so
we've
developed
those
questions
and
I'll
be
sending
them
to
the
council
and
we'll
be
getting
answers
in
the
next
few
days,
so
that
we
can
determine
where
we
are
in
terms
of
building
that
kind
of
resiliency
with
with
regard
to
to
critical
critical
needs.
So
that's
it!
That's
all.
A
Council
Varela
with
that
we're
going
to
close
this
discussion.
I
want
to
thank
Commissioner,
Caudill
and
mayor
Hamilton
I,
don't
think
any
of
us
envy
you
your
jobs
right
now.
We
greatly
appreciate
the
information
you've
given
us
tonight
and
we
hope
you
will
stay
in
touch
with
the
council
as
we
try
to
pick
up
where
we
left
off
within
the
context
of
the
emergency.
Thank
you
both
again
thanks
a
lot.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
N
A
N
You,
of
course
the
Jack
Hopkins
organizing
committee
met
when
we
still
could
meet,
but
we
put
out
a
press
release.
Today
we
are
going
to
be
extending
the
March
30th
deadline
to
Monday
April
3rd
April
13th
rather
I'm.
Sorry,
because
a
lot
of
the
social
service
agencies
in
our
community
that
are
responding
to
the
pandemic
are
certainly
scrambling.
We
want
them
to
have
every
opportunity
to
submit
a
really
quality,
grant,
that's
going
to
meet
their
needs
going
forward.
N
We
are
going
to
vet
those
applications,
obviously
in
a
different
way
than
we
normally
have
we'll
be
doing
that
virtually
and
online.
But
we
did
want
to
people
know
that
we
are
going
to
strive
very
variant
ly
to
stay
on
the
schedule
and
make
sure
that
we
have
allocations
ready
by
the
June
17th
date.
That
was
already
on
the
schedule,
but
we
do
want
to
agencies
know
they
have
a
little
bit
more
time.
N
With
regard
to
the
Jack
Hopkins
Committee,
we
have
always
had
the
opportunity
to
take
a
look
at
the
applications
and
prioritize
emergency
services
such
as
food
shelter,
healthcare,
so
that
will
continue
to
be
the
case.
There's
no
need
to
change
our
criteria,
but
we
do
want
to
note
that
we
will
recognize
pressing
needs
for
opportun
on
bridge
funding
as
well.
N
The
relief
or
reimbursement
expenses
for
general
operating
funding
will
be
considered
very
carefully
by
the
members
of
the
committee.
Again,
we
are
striving
to
keep
on
the
schedule
to
make
sure
we
can
get
these
allocations
out
as
soon
as
possible.
We
will
all
be
operating
under
these
conditions,
we'll
all
have
to
learn
how
to
do
this
by
zoom,
but
the
the
committee
is
all
on
board,
at
least
by
by
way
of
our
initial
meeting,
to
get
all
this
organized.
N
So
we
were
not
able
to
have
the
technical
meeting
for
the
agencies,
but
Stephen
Lucas
did
prepare
and
excellent
I
believe
it's
a
YouTube
that
is
posted
on
the
Jack
Hopkins
site.
On
our
website
that
would
have
gone
over
all
the
information
anybody
would
have
needed
to
get
out
of
that
technical
assistance
meeting
so
again,
keep
your
eyes
on
the
website.
Keep
your
eye
open
for
further
notice
on
how
the
Jack
Hopkins
meetings
will
be
conducted
from
this
point
on,
but
rest
assured,
we
know
we
are.
N
A
N
A
N
Very
difficult,
because
again,
if
we're
going
to
be
extending
the
time
for
the
agencies,
that's
going
to
lessen
the
time
our
staff
has
to
put
together
the
packets
to
put
together
the
information
that
the
committee
is
going
to
need
to
vet
these
applications,
and
so
we're
going
to
do
the
best.
We
can.
N
We
have
some
new
staff
who
have
never
done
Jack
Hopkins
before,
but
we
definitely
want
to
be
urgent
in
this
and
again
getting
these
dollars
out
is
going
to
be
of
the
utmost
importance
to
all
of
us,
so
we're
going
to
do
our
best,
but
the
the
middle
part
of
the
schedule
is
is
a
little
bit
upper
discussion
at
this
point.
Well,.
A
G
B
Ordinance
2005
an
ordinance
authorizing
the
refunding
of

The
synopsis
is
as

A
B
Permits
2005
an
ordinance
authorizing
the
refunding
of
certain
outstanding
water

Therewith.
A
In
order
for
this
to
even
be
considered,
it
requires
unanimous
consent
to
consider
by
reading
it.
Now,
where
does
something
I
haven't
considered
in
a
single
night?
If
there's
not
unanimous
consent
that
we
must
refer
to
committee,
if
there's
yemm's
consent
that
will
take
a
two-thirds
vote,
we
need
a
motion
to
that
end.
I
move.
G
A
A
A
A
D
H
A
K
A
O
O
Evening,
council
members
coming
to
you
from
a
bunker
Underwood
over
on
the
east
side,
happy
to
bring
some
good
news
tonight
want
to
introduce
our
group,
of
course,
director
of
utilities,
Vic
Ellison
Director
of
Finance,
with
utilities,
Laura
cut
it
myself,
Jeff
Underwood
controller
for
the
city,
Bruce
Donaldson,
with
Barnes
of
Thornburg,
who
is
our
counsel
on
this
and
Buzz
Crone
with
Auto
Cronin
associates?
Who
is
our
financial
advisors
I'm,
going
to
give
you
a
synopsis
and
then
turn
it
over
to
buzz
and
he
can
add
additional
information
for
you.
O
Essentially,
this
is
refinancing
for
of
utilities.
State
revolving
fund
outstanding
bonds
into
one.
This
will
do
a
number
of
things.
One.
The
most
important
is
about
2.4
million
dollars
in
present
value
savings
to
the
utilities
and
in
addition
to
that,
it
helps
the
utilities
with
their
ongoing
debt
service
payments,
where
there
were
going
to
be
some
balloon
payments
that
was
going
to
be
disruptive
to
the
payment
process
and
their
revenue
stream.
So
one
of
the
offshoots
of
the
virus
is
that
the
bond
markets
are
have
turned
very
favorable
to
municipalities.
O
We
began
looking
at
one
or
two
issues
and
due
to
the
markets
and
the
demand
for
the
bonds
were
able
to
bump
that
up
to
four
time
is
of
the
essence.
We
would
like
to
get
to
market
with
us
as
quickly
as
possible.
To
take
advantage
of
these
great
rates.
Steps
be
taken
would
be
if
your
approval
night
and
then
we
hope
that
you'll
do
that.
We
would
move
to
the
rating
agency
stage
working
with
standards
and
poor
to
get
a
rating
on
it.
O
We
believe
it
will
get
rated
very
high
due
to
the
nature
of
both
the
financials
of
the
city
and
Utilities
Department
and
the
nature
of
the
refunding.
Once
we
had
that,
then
we
would
move
quickly
to
market
in
that,
so
with
that,
I
will
turn
it
over
to
buzz
and-
and
he
can
provide
some
additional
information,
and
we
all
are
here
to
answer
questions.
Thank
you.
P
P
And
you
know:
I,
don't
I,
don't
know
how
many
years
he
said,
but
maybe
almost
ever,
but
so
he
felt
comfortable
with
those.
The
illustration
that
we
sent
out
in
the
last
week,
I
think
everybody
proud
had
received
that
so
the
the
restructuring
a
little
bit
to
level
out
those
payments
with
Jeff
alluded
to
will
actually
improve
the
overall
debt
service
coverage
ratios
by
about
10
percent.
P
The
maximum
annual
debt
service
on
the
new
bonds
will
be
over
half
a
million
dollars
less
than
the
maximum
debt
service
on
the
old
bond,
so
that
was
sort
of
the
second
piece
of
of
the
goals
that
Jeff
had
set
out,
trying
to
level
out
those
some
of
those
balloon
bond
payments.
So
with
that
I
think
Jeff
covered
everything
quite
quite
well,
but
we'd
be
glad
to
take
questions
from
Council
before.
Q
A
M
A
G
Q
The
2011
B
bonds
are
not
called
well.
We
can't
we
can't
pay
them
off
until
I,
believe
2021,
and
so
we
have
to
do
what's
called
an
advanced
refunding,
meaning
we
we
issued
the
bonds
today
at
these
low
rates,
we
put
the
money
in
an
escrow,
and
then
we
paid
them
off
when
when
we
can
pay
them
off.
The
problem
is
that
when
the
Congress
did
the
tax
reform
act
and
at
the
end
of
2017,
it
eliminated
our
ability
to
do
what
these
are
called
advanced
refunding.
Q
It
eliminated
our
ability
to
do
advanced,
refunding
zhan
a
tax
except
basis,
so
we
have
to
do
them
on
a
taxable
basis.
Fortunately,
as
buz
indicated,
taxable
rates
are
very,
very
low
as
well,
which
means
we
can
still
do
it
very
economically.
I
would
just
note
that
Congress
is
looking
as
part
of
everything.
It's
looking
at
right
now
at
restoring
our
ability
to
do
advanced
refunding
on
a
tax
exempt
basis,
but
it
has
not
done
so
at
this
point
and.
G
G
H
P
Well,
that's
I
wish
I
had
a
crystal
ball
councilman
the
we
know
that
they're
as
low
as
as
I've
ever
seen
in
my
40-year
career
here
and
the
spread
between
the
taxable
yield
and
the
non-taxable
yield
is,
is
less
than
40
basis
points
and
I.
Think
the
the
weighted
average
maturity
of
the
the
for
tax-exempt
deals
is
only
about
3.2
years
so
and
the
yield
on
those
is
about.
P
P
We've
got
opportunity
to
to
level
out
those
combined
annual
debt
service
payments,
which
you
always
look
at
when
you're
looking
at
debt
service
coverage
ratios
you're,
looking
at
the
maximum
annual
year
debt
service
requirement
and
with
this
new
structure,
that's
on
the
table,
we're
reducing
that
by
over
half
a
million
dollars
about
560
some
thousand
dollars,
which
is
about
a
10
percent
improvement
in
the
cover
the
debt
coverage
ratio,
which
helps
with
our
bond
rating
and
so
forth
and
I.
Guess
another
side
benefit.
You
don't
have
to
worry
about
arbitrage.
H

P

Okay,
if
there
are
no
further
question
so
I'm
pulling
my
ax
colleagues,
then
we're
gonna
go
now
to
public
comment.
Mr.
Lucas,
this
is
where
you
come
in.
If
there
has
is
there
anyone
who
would
like
to
address
the
council
on
ordinance
2005,
who
is
attending
via
zoom?
If
so,
you
should
is
the
instruction
to
raise
hands
or
to
yes
is
to
raise
there's
a
function
in
zoom
to
raise
your
hand
to
be
acknowledged
if
you'd
like
to
speak.
This
is
your
chance.
You
will
a
lot
three
minutes
per
speaker.
I'll.

B
Resolution
2005
a
resolution
from
the
Common
Council
requesting
the
food
and
beverage
tax
Advisory
Commission
to
make
a
recommendation
for
the
expenditure
of
food
and
beverage
tax
revenues.
The
synopsis
is
as
follows.
This
resolution
is
a
request
from
the
Common
Council
for
the
food
and
beverage
tax
advisory
commission
to
recommend
expenditures
of
food
and
beverage
tax
revenues
toward
the
support
of
food
and
beverage
service
or
tourism
related
establishments
and
their
employees
within
the
city
of
Bloomington.
E
Lucas
well,
I
also
want
to
note
that
we've
got
a
few
members
of
the
administration
on
the
meeting.
Corporation
Counsel
Philippa,
Guthrie
controller
Jeff,
Underwood,
director
of
economic
and
sustainable
development
out
south
I.
Think
those
folks
are
here
to
speak
to
the
resolution,
but
an
introduction
I
think
by
you
a
good
place
to
start.
Yes,.
A
A
T
Okay
thanks.
So
thanks
to
all
of
you,
we're
keeping
the
business
of
government
going
like
this
very
important
time
and
and
an
actually
discussion
also
I
wanted
to
acknowledge
it
councils
role
relative
to
protecting
and
ensuring
or
are
spent
with
fiscal
responsibility,
and
so
but
I
want
to
talk
a
little
bit
about.
T
Very
briefly
is:
is
this
question
of
the
both
the
short
term
and
the
long
term
economic
impact
that
is
evident
in
Bloomington
all
right
and
will
likely
become
more
acute
here
over
the
next
couple
of
weeks,
if
not
months,
and
what
we're
doing
as
a
group.
So
the
mayor
on
Monday
asked
to
formalize,
as
the
activities
had
already
started
in
the
community
having
to
do
with
economic
stabilization
and
planning
and
really
planning
for
recovery
over
the
long-term.
So
we
pulled
a
group
together
that
had
been
already
meeting,
but
that
that
is
now
really
much
focus.
T
The
core
group
involves
the
Billington
Economic
Development
Corporation
dimensional
Inc,
our
department,
which
is
the
city's
Department
of
Development
and
CDFI
friendly
Bloomington,
and
we
pull
together
and
our
task.
Our
immediate
task
is
to
develop
a
very
quick
policy
paper
for
mayor
Hamilton
that
lays
out
what
our
short-term
objectives
would
be
and
then
also
lays
out
our
path
to
developing
longer-term
objectives.
So,
as
you
know,
there's
a
lot
going
on
right
now
in
terms
of
external
stimulus
potential
and
so
we're
keeping
a
very
close
eye
on
that.
T
T
So
a
lot
of
surveys
and
research
and
and
asking
for
information
from
groups
in
town
and
businesses
and
organizations
in
town,
and
that
should
I
should
specify-
includes
not
only
businesses
but
also
arts
organizations
and
and
then
and
also
do
a
top-down
view
of
that
meaning
leveraging
the
IPRC,
which
is
the
Business
Resource
Center
at
Indiana
University,
a
national
and
very
strong
data
analysis
function
to
help
us
define
the
need
that
we
might
be
able
to
understand
from
the
top
down.
So
it
statewide
data.
T
Citywide
data
and
and
and
then
looking
at
those
two
and
see
where
they
meet,
so
that's
the
question
that
we're
looking
at
right
now
from
a
data
perspective
is
what
what
do
we?
What
do
we
need
and
and
then
there's
a
timing
issue,
which
is
what
do
we
need
when?
Because,
for
example,
anecdotally,
were
understanding
that
the
SBA
loan
structures
might
take
8
to
12
weeks
it?
T
The
second
thing
that
we're
doing
is
looking
at
sources
of
funding,
so
the
food
and
beverage
tax
is
is
one,
and
we
appreciate
you
considering
that
this
evening
there
are
some
others
that
you
know
we
have
looked
at
they're,
probably
not
as
substantial,
but
they
could
be
more
quick
to
market,
even
if
they're
in
smaller
increments,
but
we're
looking
across
the
landscape
of
what
what
sources
might
be
available.
It
you
know
and
and
what
kind
of
restrictions
might
exist
on
those
right
now.
T
T
So
what
we
want
to
do
is
make
sure
that
we
have
in
place
by
the
time
we
need
it
administering
function
that
has
expertise
and
capacity
that
can
execute
a
program
according
to
the
service
level
and
speed
that
we
need
it
to
execute.
So
we're
looking
at.
You
know
various
options
there
and
to
give
you
some
examples.
One
could
be,
for
example,
an
advisory
group
of
local
commercial
lending
talent
that
we
would
have
in
town
which
has
already
presented
itself
so
that
that
might
be
one
option,
and
these
are
not
mutually
exclusive
week.
T
T
It
could
be
a
variety
of
resources
that
funding
is
put
through
a
system
that
has
both
capacity
and
expertise
that
can
deliver
it
effectively
and
then
finally,
we're
looking
at
measurements
so
we're
looking
at
what
kind
of
measurements
do
we
need
to
put
in
place
up
front,
to
understand
and
and
and
validate
the
investment
and
other
processes
are
undertaking,
and
then
also
what
kind
of
reporting
do?
Should
we
be
readying
ourselves
for
you
all
and
to
any
other,
to
the
public
and
and
and
any
other
body
that
that
would
rightfully
expect
to
have
reporting.
T
So
you
have
a
lot
of
questions
that
are
unanswered
right
now.
Those
questions
you
know
I'm,
just
gonna,
throw
out
some
examples.
Are
we
talking
about
in
all
cases,
loans?
Are
we
talking
about
some
combination
of
loans
and
perhaps
a
you
know
at
some
much
smaller
percentage
of
rates?
What
does
the
loan
structure
look
like
you
know
what
are
eligibility
requirements
that
we
look
for
so,
for
example,
you
know
it
would
we
define
business
size?
T
Would
we
include
individuals
because,
as
you
might
know,
there
are
sort
of
individual
contractors
out
there
that
are,
you
know
whose
business
that
as
well
they're,
just
a
variety
of
different
questions
that
were
we're
tackling
right
now
is
part
of
preliminary
recommendations
that
we're
putting
together
the
key
e
that
I
would
I
would
really
underscore
is
first
of
all,
the
group
that
it
is
brought
together
to
look
at
these
questions
is
working
very
well
together.
It
represents
membership
of
all
sizes
of
the
community
in
terms
of
organizations
they
represent.
T
The
chamber
has
a
lot
of
the
retail
and
a
lot
of
the
restaurants
and
a
lot
of
the
you
know.
The
sort
of
on-the-ground
membership
and
the
EDC
also
has
membership,
but
they
also
have
membership.
That's
focused
on
the
traded
sectors,
so
those
sectors
that
are
making
their
money
outside
of
the
community
and
bringing
it
in
here,
and
so
you
know
it's
a
group,
that's
hard
at
work
again.
T
Our
objective
is
to
deliver
to
the
mayor
by
tomorrow
night,
a
initial
policy
document
for
review
and
and
then
to
go
from
there,
as
we
really
figure
this
out
so
I'll
stop
there
jephta
and
anything
that
he
might
want
to
happen
and
certainly
were
willing
and
able
to
answer
any
questions.
You
might
have
nothing.
A
K
You
and
I
believe
this
is
for
mr.
Crowley
or
Jeff
from
whoever,
but
mr.
Crowley
was
talking
about
the
FEHB
tax
revenue,
but
he
also
said
there
were
smaller,
less
sustainable
revenue
or
sources
of
funding
and
I
was
wondering.
Is
he
prepared
to
give
us
examples
of
what
those
other
revenue
sources
may
be
or
funding
sources
could
be
yeah.
T
I
can
give
you
an
example,
and
you
know
this
is
by
no
means
guaranteed.
It
takes
a
certain
vote
from
in
this
case
the
board,
but
the
you
know
one
source
of
potential
funding
could
be
the
Bloomington
Enterprise
Association.
Yes,
they
are.
You
know
it
is
a
it's
a
semi
governmental
body.
So
there's
a
you
know
a
board.
As
you
know,
and
and
we
are-
we
are
looking
at
that
as
a
potential.
T
It
would
require
them
to
agree
and
I
should
note
the
BVA,
the
Urban
Enterprise
Association
is
already
very
heavily
involved
in
CDFI
friendly
Bloomington.
They
were
one
of
two
very
significant
public
and
you
know
contributors
to
the
investment
fund
there,
so
whether
we
go
to
them
directly
or
whether
we
leverage
some
of
the
CDFI
Bloomington
funding,
which
they
in
part
made
available.
You
know
that
we
could
be
could
have
a
role
now.
One
thing
I
should
note
is
that
the
BU
EA
has
a
you
know
a
physical
boundary,
as
defined
by
its.
T
A
K
A
H
O
Of
the
things,
yes,
what
are
the
things
that
we've
tried
to
be
is
both
moving
forward.
Well,
at
the
same
time
being
cautious,
because
we
there
we
could
expend
funds
and
find
out
that
those
aren't
eligible
for
reimbursement
down
the
road.
But
Alex's
group
is
very
well
well
that
we're
very
well
aware
of
that,
as
we
are
so
we're
being
cautious
but
moving
as
quickly
as
we
can
to
at
least
have
programs
set
up
to
allow
the
federal
and
state
packages
to
flow
down.
O
And
obviously
you
end
up
playing
a
little
bit
of
a
waiting
game,
because
you
know
the
feds
acts
first
and
then
the
state's
waiting
for
them
to
see
ok
I'm.
What?
Where
can
we
supplement?
Or
do
we
have
to
administer
now
we're
waiting
for
them
and
it
slows
down
so
there's
a
little
bit
of
caution
there,
but
we
want
to
be
able
to
strike
as
soon
as
we
have
those
answers.
Mr.
T
I
would
say
a
couple
things
as
mr.
Underwood
said,
the
we
are
paying
very
close
attention
to
external
stimulus
money
and
and
how
that
may
or
may
not
affect
what
we're
doing.
You
know
they're
they're,
actually
sort
of
a
reverse
situation.
Where
we're
we're
sba
money
could
potentially
pay
back
short-term
loans
that
have
been
made,
so
that
could
it
so
that
that
would
be
a
case
where
you
have
extra
money
being
able
to
kick
local
money
back
into
the
pot
for
redeployment.
So
you
know
they're
they're
functions
that
are
gonna
happen.
Both
ways.
T
I
should
say
that
you
know.
If
you
just
look
at
the
at
the
kind
of
at
a
particular
organization
organization,
a
company,
a
their
their
daisy
chain
should
be
their
current
traditional
banking
loan.
That
is
the
the
first
place.
They
should
turn
well
the
first.
Actually,
the
first
thing
they
should
do
is
they
should
manage
their
expenses
and
really
optimize
their
expense
structure,
but
once
they've
done
that
they
you
know,
traditional
banking
sector
is
the
first
line
of
defense
for
them,
and
they
should
be
looking
at
that.
T
Second
line
of
defense
actually
is
the
whole
CDFI
industry
that
are
that's
really
designed
to
to
to
play
on
the
traditional
banking
and
then
and
then
local
stimulus
like
ours
serve
to
back
backstop.
That's
that
as
well.
Now
we
don't
and
then
we
don't
like
we
don't
want
to
compete,
certainly
with
our
local
banking,
because
I
think
that's
the
most
efficient,
effective
way
to
take
care
of
this.
T
Having
said
that,
you
know
if,
if
we
are
picking
up
fast,
you
know
opportunities
for
support.
We
will
be
naturally
doing
so
and
probably
a
higher
rate
of
risk
than
some
of
the
more
traditional
bank
loans
might
that
might
be
issued
so
I
just
make
sure
that
we
are
going
go
into
this
with
our
eyes
open
that
we
do
have
a
pretty
high
risk
likelihood,
and
so
we
are
aware
of
that
as
we
go
and
and
think
about
ways
to
administer
the
programs.
You
say.
T
A
where
they'll
consider
this
resolution
that
they're
expecting,
but
at
the
same
time
I
lost
me
preparing
or
asking
to
have
prepared
an
appropriation
ordinance
to
begin
using
funds
that
are
approved
by
the
fab
tech
and
the
earliest
I
can
imagine
that
coming
forward
is
next
Wednesday
April
1st
and
while
we
could
probably
adopt
it
that
night
I
think
it'd
be
better.
If
we
discussed
it
that
night,
it
could
is
going
to
take
some
time
to
do
what
mr.
Crowley
has
been
saying
that
we
have
a
meeting.
A
T
Having
said
that,
there
are,
you
know
the
house
is
on
fire
right
now,
so
we
we
do
want
to
make
sure
that
we
move
as
quickly
as
possible,
which
is
why
we're
we're
also
looking
at
even
if
it's
much
smaller
increments.
Are
there
other
funding
sources
that
might
even
get
us
going
while
we
do
a
much
more
rigorous
evaluative
process
relative
to
this
larger
sum
of
money
that
you're
proposing
in
the
resolution
well,.
O
Just
have
to
follow
up
as
well
on
many
of
the
requirements
have
been
weighed
during
this
emergency,
but
one
of
the
things
that
we
have
to
double
check
on
is
the
advertisement
of
an
additional
appropriation.
The
normal
standard
is,
it
has
to
be
advertised
10
days
in
advance
of
the
public
hearing
of
the
appropriation.
O
A
O
A
J
Couple
questions
primarily-
and
let
me
add
my
thanks
as
well
and
watch
the
economic
and
sustainable
Department
work
on
this,
for
the
lives
are
related
and
I
am
in
awe
just
how
how
much
time
and
energy
you've
invested
in
this.
So
thank
you,
Alex.
Mr.
Crowley
I
would
be
interested
in
your
feedback
as
currently
written
this
resolution,
the
city
used
such
funds
to
support
beverage
establishments,
other
businesses
that
promote
tourism
and
employees
of
such
establishments
and
businesses.
J
T
So
we've
thanks.
That's
a
good
question:
we've
we've
discussed
it
and-
and
it
we've
in
fact
discusses
this
afternoon.
I
think
I
think
it
would
be
our
recommendation
to
you
if,
if
at
all
possible
and
I
and
and
I
recognize
again
the
importance
of
being
fiscally
responsible,
so
I'm
saying
this
ignition
of
that
and
that
I
think
it
would
be
our
recommendation
that
to
the
extent
possible,
we
loosen
the
language
eligible
funding
targets,
and
so
you
know
so
the
barber
shop.
So
we're
not.
T
So
we
don't
end
up
in
a
situation
where
we
have
a
really
strong
administrative
function.
They
have
a
very
strong
set
of
guidelines
and
rules
that
they're
gonna
apply,
which,
by
the
way
we
can
report
at
view
and
then
we've
kind
of
fun
unintentionally
written
ourselves
out
of
being
able
to
serve
some
businesses
that
we
would
have
theoretically
wanted
to
serve.
But
because
of
the
way
the
language
in
the
resolution
has
limited
us
upfront,
we
can't
really
justify
doing
that.
So
it
would
be.
T
So
I
think
right
now,
the
language
as
it's
currently
written
is
is
more
restrictive,
that
we
would
recommend
and-
and
we
would
like
to
you
know
at
least
create
it's
okay
to
leave
that
as
it
is,
create
flexibility
in
a
in
a
you
know,
maybe
including
or
you
know,
for
example,
language
or
something
that
says
hey.
This
is
the
kinds
of
things
that
we
want
to
try
to
do,
but
it
doesn't
include
our
bill.
It
doesn't
exclude
our
ability
to
go
and
fund
in
other
cases,
that
may
not
be
specified
within
the
current
language.
F
U
It's
dictated
by
the
statute,
the
language
of
the
statute
for
the
food
and
beverage
tax,
and
it
it
can't
be
overly
broad
because
it
needs
to
be
well
just
to
address
upfront.
I
know
some
of
you
may
have
this
question.
We
are
working
still
with
the
State
Board
of
accounts
on
whether
or
not
they
would
accept
our
proposal
as
legal,
and
we
hope
to
have
a
response
by
the
end
of
the
week
from
them.
They
fully
understand
what
we
want
to
do
and
they
want
to
help
us
with
our
situation.
U
They're
doing
this
kind
of
thing
all
over
the
state,
but
we
won't
necessarily
here
until
the
the
end
of
the
week.
It
doesn't
mean
that
you
can't
proceed
with
this
tonight
and
that
the
food
and
beverage
tax
Advisory
Commission
can't
proceed,
but
I
just
wanted
to
put
that
out
there,
but
the
language
is.
U
Essentially
and
I,
don't
I'm
not
going
to
quote
it
I'm
going
to
paraphrase
it,
but
it
has
to
be
related
to
the
Convention
Center,
the
operation,
the
maintenance,
the
construction,
so
it
has
to,
and
it
says,
or
other
tourism
related
or
economic
development
projects.
We
can't
just
say
any
and
all
businesses
in
Bloomington
that
are
struggling
and.
J
J
That
one
where,
as
paragraph
that
made
me
nervous
was
the
Common
Council
includes
that
the
support
of
these
enterprises
and
to
me
it
seems
like
we
need
more
than
just
ourselves
concluding
it's
a
good
idea,
and
so
I
appreciate
what
you
said
about
the
State
Board
of
accounts
and
I'm
wondering
if
we
can
adjust
this
language
so
that
something
to
the
effect
of
having
received
reassurance
from
the
State
Board
of
accounts.
That
this
is
the
acceptable
use
of
these
funds
can.
A
I
just
say
that,
as
the
haste
the
author
of
this
resolution,
that
this
is
why
I've
emphasized
the
appropriation
ordinance
that
there
will
need
to
be
similar,
whereas
clauses
in
the
probation
ordinance-
and
this
is
this-
the
only
function
of
this
resolution
is
to
gain
permission
from
the
fabtech
to
even
consider
the
appropriation
ordinance.
So
we
have
time
to
improve
the
language.
I
hear
you
and
I
want
to
fix
it,
so
that
it's
appropriate
okay.
G
T
We're
looking
at
that
and
I
think
the
language
and
the
resolution
allows
for
that
or
as
it
stands
right
now,
so
you
know,
there's
two
million
dollars
is
a
huge
amount
of
money
and
for
any
and
any
of
us
individually.
But
it's
it's
really
not
a
huge
amount
of
money.
When
you
look
at
the
totality
of
the
need
in
the
community,
so
we're
gonna
have
to
be
really
deliberate
about
how
we
go
about
doing
it.
We
certainly
are
keeping
an
eye
on
individuals
as
employees,
individuals
as
contractors.
T
We
have
a
focus
on
on
an
equity
component
to
this,
to
make
sure
that
you
know
it's
not
just
the
it's,
not
the
the
shiny
thing
that
gets
all
the
money,
but
that
we're
really
looking
across
the
spectrum
of
the
equity
spectrum
to
make
sure
that
we're
covering
all
parts,
the
community,
particularly
those
areas
that
tend
to
be
underserved.
So
that
can
be
individuals
there
are.
T
There
are
people
who
are
basically
sole
proprietors
or
you
know
just
people
doing
jobs,
and
we
need
to
factor
that
that
group
in
but
again
what
we're
trying
to
do
is
avoid.
You
know
stepping
on
the
toes
of
some
of
the
other
stimulus
activity.
That's
going
on
I
in
fact
have
a
series
of
questions
out
to
the
folks
DWD
the
workforce
development
having
to
do
specifically
with
in
some
cases
you
know
is
if
we
were
to
do
monies
to
an
individual,
does
that
somehow
affect
or
disqualify
them
from
other
kind
of
stimulus,
so
we're
watching.
T
H
U
H
U
U
They
are
very
mindful
of
the
fact
that
we
are
in
very
strange
and
unusual
circumstances,
and
they
want
to
give
us
some
leeway,
but
they
don't
want
to
do
something
that
they
feel
is
improper
under
the
law,
and
they
want
to
make
sure
that
it's
not
some
fly-by-night
operation
where
we're
just
throwing
cash
out
to
entities
without
vetting
them.
Ok,.
H
A
A
O
I
can
answer
that
they're,
actually
just
the
collection
agency
for
it,
so
that
the
tax
is
just
remitted
to
the
state
by
the
restaurants
and
bars
and
has
collected
the
tax
it
actually
is
paid
by
the
patrons
of
those
businesses,
so
there's
no
nexus
for
them
to
receive
it
back,
because
it's
not
a
bottom-line
expense
for
those
businesses.
This
is
a
tax.
That's
much
like
sales
tax.
There
are.
There
are
the
people
that
pay
it
and
then
the
people
that
are
admit
it.
The
businesses,
remit
sales
tax
and
they
remit
the
food
beverage
tax.
So.
S
Councilmember
few
months
missed
question
and
I
I
would
say:
I
am
really
concerned
about
the
direct
relief
that
we
would
be
giving
to
employees,
but
I
think
also
it
might
be
difficult
to
call
them
employ
them
and
I,
don't
know
legally
what
we
might
say,
because
a
lot
of
people
have
been
laid
off
so
they're,
not
employees
anymore,
like
looking
at
service
and
groups,
industry,
workers
and
some
other
way,
I
guess
but
and
I
think
everyone
is
touching
on
this,
but
I
do
think
it
would
need
to
be
a
process
where
right.
S
We
don't
just
give
money
to
the
businesses
and
have
them
distribute
that
to
employees
because
it
wouldn't
be
equal
and
we
wouldn't
want
owners
deciding
who
gets
what
in
that
way.
But
I
I,
just
I
guess
wanted
to
reiterate
that
I
think
it
is
really
important
that
if
we
are
allowed
to
do
this
and
we're
not
stepping
on
the
toes
of
the
federal
government
or
the
state
government
and
what
people
receive,
it
would
be
good
for
us
to
have
a
process
for
individuals
in
the
service
industry.
To
apply
for
grants
is.
A
S
A
S
U
Think
we
need
to
address
it
tonight.
I
understand
your
concern
and
part
of
that
I
think
was
to
express
concern
for
employees
and
that
perhaps
one
of
the
routes
for
that
was
to
give
grants
or
loans
to
the
businesses
to
be
able
to
keep
employees
on
the
payroll.
So
as
far
as
employees
who
are
no
longer
employed,
that's
a
question.
Some
of
them
have
been
furloughed,
it's
hard
to
say.
O
Just
to
reiterate
a
point
that
Alex
made
is
that
it's
very
important
that
we
work
with
the
Department
of
Workforce
Development,
so
that
nothing
that
we
would
do
would
damage
the
fact
that
they
may
be
receiving
benefits,
because
there
are
repayment
requirements
and
penalties
if
they
get
what
they
would
consider
reportable
income
that
wasn't
reported
and
they
would
actually
reduce
their
benefits.
Due
to
that,
so
we
need
to
be
very,
very
careful,
we're
talking
about
current
poise
and
for
lloyd
and
those
that
have
been.
You
know
let
go
permanently
right.
A
J
You
just
to
clarify
my
understanding,
what
hearing
a
lot
of
questions
and
concerns
about
process
and
how
things
actually
get
decided
and
what
the
guiding
principles
are
making
these
awards.
Mr.
Crowley
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong,
but
you
mentioned
that
you
are
working
on
a
policy
document
on
a
policy
paper
with
the
working
group.
Is
that
correct
and
if
I
understand
correctly,
that's
the
kind
of
information
that
will
come
out
of
it
is
that
right
or
yeah
yeah.
T
We're
in
a
we're
in
a
little
bit
of
a
mad
scramble
to
pull
this
together,
but,
yes,
that's
exactly
so
we're
gonna,
be
you
know
it's.
This
will
be
an
initial,
a
document
that
will
be
augmented
over
time.
You
know
there
are
quite
we're
talking
about
the
immediate
challenge
right
now,
but
we
have
to
keep
an
eye
on
and
before
casting
out.
What
are
the
long-term
revenue
implications
to
tax
rolls
and
all
that
we
need
to
think
about
recovery.
T
We
need
to
protect
resources
today
to
be
able
to
ensure
that
recovery
is
as
strong
as
possible
when
we
need
it.
We
need
to
keep
you
know
projects
going
like
you
know
the
investments
that
we're
making
around
the
city
to
be
able
to
ensure
that
when
recovery
happens,
we
have
infrastructure
in
place
to
be
able
to
do
that
so,
but
in
the
immediate,
what
we're
trying
to
do,
literally
by
tomorrow,
close
the
business
is
put
together
some
initial
thoughts
about.
First
of
all,
what
are
those
principles?
So
principles
could
be.
T
You
know
speak
to
lab
to
leverage
public
monies
against
other
resources
as
effectively
as
possible
right
that
could
be
a
high
level
principle
that
we
we
kind
of
baked
into
how
we
we
set
up
products.
You
know
it
can
have
principles
of
equity.
I've
talked
a
little
bit
about
that,
so
I
mean
there
are
a
number
of
high-level
thoughts
that
we
would
put
against
that
so
some
very
specific
reason
doing
research.
T
What
are
other
communities
doing
you
know
around
the
country,
one
of
the
unfortunate
benefit
and
happening
some
communities
further
along
in
the
curve
than
we
are,
is
that
they've
they've
kind
of
felt
it
faster
and
they
actually
have
gone
ahead
of
where
we
to
some
of
these
programs.
So
we
have
that
benefit
of
being
able
to
see
what's
happening
around
the
country
we
have
and
we're
bringing
information
like
that
to
bear
we're
looking
at
CDFI
products
and
that
are
being
stood
up
for
this
particular
crisis.
T
So
we
can
have
information
about
that
and
we
can
learn
from
that.
So
what
are
the
terms
that
they're
laying
in
the
you
know?
What
are
they
doing
in
terms
of
waiving
fees
where
they
do?
How
long
is
alone?
How
long
does
the
repayment,
or
how
long
does
it
take
and
repayment
as
necessary
things
like
that,
so
you
know
there's
a
lot
of
information,
we're
quickly
compiling
it.
We
we'll
put
it
together
in
a
preliminary
form
by
close
of
business
tomorrow
and
then
that
document
will
get
built
on
because
it
will.
T
A
M
I
think
one
or
two
actually-
and
my
apologies-
if
these
were
asked
in
the
brief
minutes
where
I
stepped
out
earlier
one
is-
is
really
confirming
a
couple
of
impressions
from
the
resolution
one
is
with
which
one
of
which
is.
This
does
not
commit
us
to
spending
two
million
dollars
and
says
we
could
use
this
money
for
this
purpose
and
wanted
to
confirm
that.
M
That's
that's
correct
and
then
two
I
just
wanted
to
ask
about
I
know
when
the
county
commissioners
passed
their
resolution
last
week,
requesting
that
the
fabtech
recommend
the
the
allocation
of
two
hundred
thousand
dollars.
That
was
an
amount
that
was
sort
of
unencumbered
or
at
least
not
earmarked
for
a
separate
project
product
project
among
the
portion
that
is
in
the
county's
accounts.
M
That
would
not
be
the
case
really
with
the
city
where
we
have
pledged,
at
least
in
some
some
respect,
I
guess
there
was
a
ordinance
last
year
or
in
its
1909
bretons
that
we
specified,
we
would
use
6.25
million
for
architecture
fees
related
to
Metro
Center
and
the
amount
of
money
in
the
city
accounts.
I,
don't
think
he's
even
at
that
level.
Right
now.
So
just
wondering
how
that
interacts?
How
that
commitment
that
previous
ordinance,
that
was
passed
by
the
council
interacts
with
this
resolution
and
potential
appropriations
ordinance
again,
my
apologies!
T
Me
start
with
the
first
issue,
and
then
maybe
you
turn
it
over
to
Jeff.
That's
okay!
For
the
second
one,
the
the
to
address
the
first
one
it
would
be.
Actually
not
only
would
we
not
only
is
specified
that
we
I
spent
two
million,
but
we
would
actually
recommend
that
we
redo
it
multiple
tranches.
So
we
pick
an
amount
and
again
it'll
have
to
come
from.
T
What's
the
most
burning
urgent
need,
but
that
we
not
you
know,
use
up
all
the
powder
in
the
first
in
the
first
cup
gram,
because
we
see
what
the
effect
of
that
is.
We
need
to
see
you
know
what
kind
of
money's
come
back,
but
we
would
certainly
look
to
potentially
use
the
full
amount
over
time,
but
to
do
so
very
discipline
way.
So
we
again
we
would.
T
We
would
earmark
some
initial
portion
of
that
and
go
to
market
with
it
and
and
we'll
learn
stuff
we're
not
going
to
get
everything
right,
the
first
time
out
and
so
that
we
have
not
burned
through
and
that
we
reserve
a
portion
of
it
for
a
secondary
phase
of
going
to
market.
So
that's
the
answer
that
I
would
have
for
the
for
the
two
million
Jeff
I.
Don't
know:
can
you
talk
to
the
earmarking?
Yes.
O
Currently,
we
have
appropriated
the
amount
of
money
that
we
do
have
in
the
fund,
so
there
would
have
to
be
some
reallocations,
as
you
said,
commissioner,
clarity
that
the
council
did
appropriate
the
majority
of
the
funds
we
had
available
to
us
so
before
the
appropriation
ordinance
we'll
be
working
on
the
accounting
part
of
that,
and
it
would
have
a
recommendation
on
if
we
need
to
cut
back
on
some
of
those
other
commitments,
how
much
and
for
what
project,
as
well
as
looking
at
additional
funds
that
may
come
in.
Obviously,
this
is
just
happening.
O
M
But
just
a
quick
follow-up
to
confirm,
then
it's
it's
not
it's
possible
to
to
pass
in
new
appropriations
ordinance
for
two
million
dollars.
It
would
just
require
some,
perhaps
revisiting
previous
appropriation
as
the
council
is
made.
That's
correct!
Okay!
Thank
you.
All.
A
E
V
V
It
is
our
friends
who
are
selling
us,
our
clothes
or
the
barbers
that
are
cutting
our
hair,
massage
places
that
we
usually
go
to
all
of
those
places
that
are
our
Hoosiers
are
hunkering
down
as
we
know,
but
that
means
so
many
of
our
employers
in
the
area
and
our
employees
have
nothing
to
do
and
they
can't
they
can't
run
their
business
without
customers
and
people
there.
But
thank
you
for
considering
this
resolution
tonight.
V
I
mean
it's
gonna,
be
very
meaningful
to
our
members
in
the
rest
of
the
community
and
I'm
glad
and
appreciate
that
you're
considering
it
tonight,
I
know
it's
a
it's
a
hard
right
turn
after
being
working
so
hard
with
the
convention
center
for
the
beverage
tax
and
working
so
hard
in
that
direction,
but
I
think
it's
necessary,
so
I
just
wanted
to
let
you
know
that.
Thank
you
so
much
thank.
E
W
Sorry
Stephen
this
is
Curtis
Cummings
with
switchyard
Brewing
Company
I
want
to
thank
the
council
for
taking
the
time
to
consider
this
resolution
this
evening.
I
also
want
to
thank
the
council
for
being
fiscally
responsible
with
these
funds.
After
all,
the
food
and
beverage
tax
dollars
do
not
belong
to
the
food
and
beverage
operators
here
in
Monroe
County
those
dollars
belong
to
the
citizens
and
the
tourists
of
this
county.
W
I
say
tourists
on
on
purpose,
because
Bloomington
is
known
for
our
food
and
beverage
scene,
we're
known
for
our
unique
local
and
independent
shops.
People
visit
this
town
from
all
over
for
the
culture
that
we
create
and
the
people
that
are
here
in
the
city
and
the
small
businesses
that
they've
created
as
one
of
those
operators
in
this
town
that
took
seven
years
to
open
my
business.
We
are
now
faced
with
a
very
uncertain
future.
W
We
wrote
the
petition
on
change.org
for
our
staff
to
show
them
that
we're
trying
to
do
something
that
we
are
constantly
pushing
forward
for
them
to
bring
their
jobs
back
and
to
ensure
that
this
brewery
is
here
when
they
return
when
we
can
get
through
this
together
and
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
to
the
council
for
even
considering
this
and
if
there's
any
questions
for
me
directly,
I
have
no
problem
answering.
Thank
you
very
much.
Thank.
A
A
X
Yeah
good
evening,
my
name
is
Chris
Barton
I'm,
the
director
of
operation
or
petty
hospitality
and
obviously
represent
a
pretty
large
number
of
restaurants
in
the
downtown
Bloomington
area.
A
very
appreciative
of
the
council
hearing
me
tonight
and
also
having
the
the
discussion
that
you
had
regarding
this
resolution.
X
Really,
you
know
I
think
Curtis
Curtis
speaks
well
for
how
every
individual
independent
restaurant
operator
in
the
downtown
planaria
feels
right
now
and
I.
Think
it's
important
to
understand
that
you
know
as
Jeff
Underwood
in
a
couple
times.
You
know
the
landscape
is
changing
quickly
and
we
really
don't
know
what
tomorrow
will
bring
or
next
week
will
bring.
X
But
if
you
walk
around
downtown
on
a
regular
basis,
these
last
10
days
every
day,
another
restaurant
or
bar
or
private
business
was
choosing
to
close,
even
before
the
governor
mandated
that
they
had
to
because
they
couldn't
stay
open
and
I,
bring
35
years
of
restaurant
experience
to
the
fennec
team,
all
across
the
United
States
and
I'm
very
sort
of
intertwined
in
the
in
the
Bloomington
community
in
a
lot
of
different
ways
and
I
just
want
to
make
sure
you
all
understand
that
a
week
for
now
10
to
20%
of
the
restaurants
that
existed
in
downtown
Bloomington
a
month
ago
will
not
a
month
from
now.
X
50%
of
the
restaurants
that
existed
a
month
ago
in
downtown
will
not
maybe
more.
We
try
to
understand
what
to
use
the
F&B
tax
on
in
this
time
of
crisis.
I
think
it's
also
to
make
sure
we
fully
understand
that
the
pace
of
that
tax,
where
people
go
to
spend
their
money
to
generate
the
revenue
into
that
tax
bucket,
could
easily
nificantly
different
in
a
month.
X
So
anything
you
can
do
to
help
every
independent
operator
in
the
downtown
Bloomington
area
is
going
to
make
a
difference
and
no
matter
how
it's
used,
whether
it's
used
specifically
for
the
owners
or
for
their
team
members.
It's
gonna
make
a
difference,
and
you
know
the
tourism
in
Bloomington.
One
of
the
big
draws
is
obviously
you
know
what
you
can
do
in
downtown
Bloomington
and
that
landscape
is
going
to
change
and
I
would
just
really
appreciate,
as
you
vote
tonight,
thanks
a
lot.
Thank.
A
X
A
A
K
Thank
you
first
of
all,
I'd
like
to
say,
I,
definitely,
support,
resolution,
2005
and
I.
Think
there'll
be
more
questions
and,
first
of
all
thanks
everyone
and
all
the
discussion
this
evening
cuz
it
brought
up
a
lot
of
issues
and
questions
that
I
think
we're
all
been
thinking
and
I
think
there'll
be
more
developed,
but
I'm
we
get
to
the
Appropriations
ordinates
phase
and
I.
Think
that'll
give
it
particularly
looks
like
mr.
Crowley
and
mr.
K
K
Arts
organizations
were
mentioned
earlier,
not
that
we
didn't
think
about
those,
but
I
think
it's
very
important.
How
is
the
entire
downtown,
who
was
basically
built
on
tourism
or
its
sustained,
a
lot
by
tourism?
How
were
their
eligibility
be
considered?
These
are
questions
that
can
be
answered
tonight,
but
I'm
looking
forward
to
them
being
answered
later.
I
also
want
to
thank
mr.
Crowley
again
and
the
group
that
he's
working
with
I
think
these
are
some
very
important
issues
that
they're
working
on
on.
How
do
you
quantify
the
local
economic
need?
K
How
are
these
models
that
they're,
seeing
across
the
country
being
used,
and
particularly
in
those
areas,
but
how
are
they
been
aiding
us
in
developing
our
own
local
model
and
enough
most
important
makers
measurements?
How
will
we
measure
this
need
and
then
measure
its
effectiveness?
So
I
am
looking
forward
to
more
discussion
as
we
move
toward
the
a
board
or
I'm
sorry,
appropriation,
ordinates
phase
and
I
just
want
to
thank
some
of
the
community
members
for
some
of
their
comments
as
well.
So
thank
you.
K
N
I
think
we're
finding
ourselves
in
very
somber
times,
I
think
about
the
whole
culture
of
Bloomington
and
what
makes
it
so
unique
and
special
our
independent
businesses,
restaurants,
the
arts
and
so
I
wholeheartedly
support.
What
we're
doing
tonight,
which
I
understand,
is
step
one.
We
have
many
more
questions.
We
have
many
more
things
to
get
solidified
before
the
next
phase.
N
That's
I
do
want
to
also
give
my
thanks
and
gratitude
to
the
internal
team,
the
the
whole
CEO
CG,
the
continuation
of
city
government
team
and
the
subcommittee
that's
working
very
hard
on
the
mechanics
that
cannot
be
understated.
City
Council
cannot
do
this
by
ourselves
without
the
day-to-day
staff,
who
are
very
diligently
working
on
the
details,
not
the
least
of
which
our
legal
staff
who
are
working
with
the
the
legal
decision-makers
about
what
we
can
and
cannot
do
going
forward.
So
we're
all
very
fluid
in
these
times.
N
F
G
Yes,
thank
you.
I
am
very
grateful
for
the
report
from
mr.
Crowley
tonight.
It
really
reassures
me
that
experts
in
the
field
of
theater
headed
long-term
thinking,
people
are
on
the
case
and
are
looking
at
the
economic
consequences
on
our
community
of
this
epidemic
and
I
am
very
pleased
to
hear
that
I'm
looking
forward
to
hopefully
receiving
a
copy
of
the
white
paper
that
they're
preparing
for
tomorrow
evening,
I
think
that
will
help
us
in
our
deliberations
on
the
appropriation
ordinance
which
would
come
after
assuming
we
passed.
G
The
resolution
tonight
and
the
fabtech
passes
their
recommendation
along
to
us
next
week
or
on
Friday.
So
I
am
very
grateful
to
this
team
that
the
city's
assembled
to
plan
for
the
economic
times
the
uncertain
and
dire
economic
times
that
are
ahead
of
us
and
I
look
forward
to
their
expert
guidance
as
we
decide
what
details
to
put
into
the
appropriation
ordinance
and
then
how
to
administer
the
funds
so
that
they
are
used
most
efficiently
and
most
effectively
to
help
businesses
and
employees
survive
this
economic
downturn
so
I'm
very
much
in
favor
of
this.
H
I
want
to
echo
everything
that's
been
said:
I
I
expect
this
crisis
to
go
on
for,
unfortunately,
quite
a
long
time.
So
I
am
very
supportive
of
this,
but
I
considered
a
first
round
attempt
at
bridge
funding
for
businesses.
We
have
to
revisit
this
again.
I
think
the
administration
of
this
will
be
complicated.
H
I
think
it
will
be
the
eligibility
and
so
forth
in
order
to
comply
with
the
State
Board
of
accounts
rules.
So
I
guess
we.
This
is
a
good
first
round.
I
think
that
this
will
we'll
have
to
recalibrate
as
we
proceed
on
the
basis
of
evaluating
at
the
effectiveness
and
I
and
I
would
like
to
thank
the
administration
ESD,
the
controller,
miss
Guthrie
and
mayor
Hamilton
support
for
this
Thanks.
H
M
What
we're
flaherty
yeah
just
a
few
comments.
First
echo
those
saying
that
I
very
much
appreciate
the
diligence
and
thoroughness
with
which
city
staff
controller,
mr.
Crowley
Dudley
have
all
looked
at
the
details
of
this
and
the
allowance
of
it
and
how
exactly
we
fit
in
the
contours
of
the
state
statute
and
the
guidance
from
the
State
Board
of
accounts.
I
know
we
have
some
more
guidance
forthcoming.
M
There
I'll
mention-
and
it's
been
mentioned
by
a
few
others-
that
I've
heard
from
a
number
of
constituents,
including
local
restaurant
owners,
downtown
as
well
as
servers
and
bartenders
that
are
a
little
concerned
about
this,
going
only
to
business
owners
as
opposed
to
the
service
workers
and
staff
and
employees
or
even
in
some
cases,
former
employees,
so
I
think
that's
a
really
important
piece.
I
know
it's
on
the
you
know
the
mind
of
the
folks
working
on
this,
including
the
council,
members
and
members
of
the
sustainable
development
MIDI.
M
It's
just
something:
I've
wanted
to
do
spotlight
and
and
say
that
we
need
to
all
be
keeping
in
mind
as
we
look
at
what
types
of
policy
guidance
we
would
like
to
see
in
the
appropriations
ordinance
and
in
other
documents
related
to
any
expenditures
of
these
tax
revenues.
And
finally,
just
thank
you
to
the
chamber,
the
local
business
owners
curtis
coming,
certainly
who
got
this
petition
started,
and
others
who've
been
working
on
this
for
those
watching
tonight
or
later.
M
I
would
suggest
that
you,
if
you
have
specific
ideas
related
to
any
of
this
concerns
questions
please
reach
out
to
your
council
members
and
and
share
those
with
us,
so
we
can
make
sure
that
we're
getting
good
input
from
from
constituents
from
the
public
from
business
owners
as
to
you
know
what
their
needs
are
and
how
we
can
best
craft
a
policy
that
will
serve
the
greater
good
of
the
Bloomington
community.
So
that's
that's
all
for
me.
Thanks
thank.
J
You
again
I
want
to
express
my
thanks,
certainly
to
Alex
and
his
team,
but
particularly
to
those
teams
that
have
kind
of
come
together
on
the
fly
to
respond
to
these
kinds
of
questions.
The
Bloomington,
Economic
Development,
Corporation
dimension,
don't
link
CDFI
from
the
Bloomington
and
many
others
have
really
I,
feel
better
I
sleep
better.
Knowing
that
you're
working
on
this
I
guess
it's
going
to
say
it,
but
I
just
wanted
to
say
thank
you
so
and
I'll
be
supporting
you.
A
Thank
you
seeing
no
other
council
members
who
wish
to
speak
I
want
to
say
a
couple
things
and
I'm
kind
of
gonna
kind
of
combine
the
last
part
of
the
meeting.
The
council
schedule
with
my
comment
so
because
the
governor
has
asked
for
only
essential
business
to
be
done
in
order
to
prevent
some
business
that
would
almost
have
to
be
done.
A
Crowley.
This
message
is
to
you
about
the
bankers,
who
have
stepped
forward
to
assist
they're
going
to
be
an
essential
part
of
anything
we
do.
We
need
help
to
figure
out
how
to
structure
the
loan
or
bridge
loans
or
whatever
we're
going
to
to
do
to
mitigate
the
impact
of
this
on
low
at
the
local
private
sector
and
again
the
it
requires
a
10-day
period
between
the
advertising
of
it
and
the
approval
of
an
appropriation
ordinance.
A
So
it
seems
to
me
that
the
earliest
we
could
approve
the
ordinance
would
happen
to
be
the
time
of
the
next
meeting
we
had
scheduled,
which
was
an
unusual
day.
It
was
excused
they
April
meeting,
whether
it's
Tuesday
or
Wednesday.
At
this
point,
I
feel
like
that's,
going
to
be
the
right
amount
of
time
between
getting
the
details
right
of
this
program,
but
not
waiting
too
long
to
invoke
the
program.
A
So
as
soon
as
this
vote
is
done,
I'm
going
to
move
to
to
ask
that
we
move
to
cancel
the
regular
session
and
to
call
a
special
session.
It
doesn't,
it
seems
like
rearranging
deck
chairs,
but
it
really
isn't
it's
an
important
step.
We
need
to
take
I
want
to
thank
everyone
for
considering
this
on
such
a
short
notice.
A
The
one
thing
that
I
have
thought
all
along
about
this
use
of
the
fund
is
that
at
least
we've
established
in
the
first
two
years
of
the
existence
of
the
fat
tax,
that
there
is
a
substantial
aid
as
a
substantial
we
restaurant
sector
in
Bloomington
at
3.5
million
dollars
last
year.
That's
a
350
million
dollar
a
year,
gross
revenue,
food
and
beverage
sector.
A
The
second
thing
is
that
if
we
can
get
our
industry
back
to
where
it
was,
we
can
generate
the
revenue
to
build
a
convention,
or
we
may
have
to
put
more
money
into
the
bond
than
we
were
planning
to
spend
instead
of
just
spending
cash.
So
we
may
have
to
finance
it,
but
that's
still
a
far
cheaper
price
to
pay
and
to
lose
this
substance.
A
substantial
part
of
our
local
economy
and
I.
Don't
think
that
the
entirety
of
the
sector
is
in
jeopardy,
but
I
mean
if
we
don't
move
within
a
month.
A
A
I
am
open
to
all
suggestions
and
I
want
to
urge
my
colleagues
to
consider
that
whatever
gets
put
into
the
packet
Friday
for
that
approbation
ordinance
is
going
to
be
in
need
of
work,
so
don't
hesitate
to
write
amendments,
we're
not
going
to
be
able
to
cobble
together
a
plan
for
how
to
use
this
money
in
two
days.
It's
going
to
take
that
entire
period,
and
so
we
may
be
looking
at
amendments
on
April
1st.
A
We
may
be
looking
at
amendments
on
April,
7th
or
8th,
but
it's
going
to
need
everyone's
help
to
craft
this
language
and
to
is
the
resulting
program
that
mr.
Crowley
and
others
will
be
executing.
So
I'm
asking
you
for
your
help
here,
because
I
can't
no
no,
but
no
one
person
can
write
this
particular
ordinance
alone
and
considering
that
everything
else
has
to
go
on
the
back
burner.
This
is
essential
business
that
I
need
everybody's
focus.
A
D
A
A
Motion
in
a
second
all
in
favor,
please
signify
by
saying
aye
opposed,
say,
nay,
we
will
have
a
special
session
instead
of
a
regular
session
next
week
at
6:30,
and
we
will
likely
be
taking
up
an
appropriation
ordinance
in
response
to
this.
The
fabtech
again
meets
5:30
a
5:00
o'clock
on
Friday.
To
consider
the
resolution
we've
just
passed.
We
are,
of
course,
going
to
be
meeting
virtually
by
zoom,
as
we
did
Tuesday
and
as
those
of
us
have
done
here
tonight,
mr.
shermin,
do
we
have
any
other
business?
No.
A
All
right
with
that
I
want
to
thank
everyone
for
being
patient
in
this
experiment.
Zoom
seemed
to
work
pretty
well.
If
you
have
any
comments
about
how
this
went
tonight,
please
feel
free
to
email
any
of
us
on
the
City
Council.
If
there's
no
objection
by
the
way,
also
I've
seen
you
all
it
literally
in
a
new
light
tonight
and
I
think
that
this
is
a
good
way
of
meeting
and
I
wonder
if
we
can't
integrate
it
into
our
processes.
When
we
go
back
to
normal
mr.
Simms.
K
A
Here
here,
I
also
want
to
say
thanks
to
Andrew
Krebs
in
the
mayor's
office
and
to
Steven
Lucas,
who
has
spent
all
day,
coordinating
this
very
unusual
meeting,
and
it
has
proven
to
me
that
we
can
successfully
meet
online
and
that
zoom
is
a
pretty
good
tool
for
it.
So
with
that,
if
there
are
no
other
comments,
move.
