A
A
D
Sorry,
sorry,
sorry,
I
didn't
unmute
myself
linda
thompson.
A
Hearing
nobody
we'll
move
on
to
approval
of
the
june
and
february.
A
Time
on
that
one
I
had
redem
and
confirmed
that
I
was.
A
Minutes
that
case
everybody
in
favor
of
approving
the
june
minutes.
A
Is
anybody
able
to
get
a
face
headcount
on
this?
I
don't.
A
Who
is
opposed
to
to
proving
the
june
minutes,
say,
nay,.
F
Commission
itself
talked
about
that
iu
is
hiring
an.
F
Think
and
then
we,
let's
see.
F
F
The
the
person
who
is
the
city.
F
Equivalent
of
of
linda
for
the
sustainability
commission.
F
If
it
exact
actually
exists,
I
sat
in
on
it.
This
is
from
the
public.
C
Go
for
it
yeah,
so
I
had
actually.
I
had
trouble
today
finding
their
minutes.
C
Two
things
that
they
discussed
for
most
of
the
meeting
the
monroe
county.
C
About
environmentally
or
concerns
that
people
have
etcetera,
this
was
this
made
up
most
of
the
discussion
for
their
meeting.
C
I
thought
it
was
interesting.
I
was
going
to
bring
it
up
during
commissioner
announcements
about.
Maybe
us
collaborating
with
them.
C
Are
two
key
talking
points
from
their
meeting?
If
anyone
can
help
me
find
their
minutes
and
they
don't
post
them
online.
C
They
they
have.
The
video
recorded
for
the
meeting.
A
Okay,
thank
you
next
would
be
the
sustainability
commission,
bloomington.
A
Sustainability
commission
much
most
of
the
actual
meeting.
I
Presentation
was
their.
I
Lauren
their.
What
is
what
what
is
her
title,
lauren's
title.
I
Again,
she's
the
assistant
director
of
sustainability,.
D
She's,
the
liaison
she's
got
a
different
title,
but
she's.
D
The
liaison
with
the
because,
like
I
am
with
ec.
I
A
kinder
year
situate
your
position.
She
spent
the
bulk
of
the
time
as
far.
I
Bylaws
were
basically
similar
to
ours.
I
think
they.
I
Only
allowed
three
missing.
I
Have
missed
more
than
that,
so
it
was
and
then
they
also.
I
Vote
for
new
officers,
so
it
was
basically
a
lot
of.
I
We're
related
to
are
germane
to
us.
We
don't
have
necessarily
the
same.
I
A
Okay,
all
right,
our
june
2020
meeting
we
first
talked
about.
F
Chlorine
up
there
for
some
reason
we
talked
about
again
water
quality
at.
F
Trees
are
ugly
but
they're
needed.
If
you
want
to.
D
I
think
that's
an
andrew
thing.
I
sat
there
also
the
advisory.
C
Again,
just
limited
to
my
notes
at
the
current
moment,
one.
C
Second,
the
pat
martin
and
ryan
clemens.
C
C
2045,
the
give
me
a
quick
second.
Actually,
it's
all
right,
I'm
just.
C
Thing
that
I
noted
that
pat
mark
brought
up
was
that.
A
Okay,
thanks
for
that
next
item
is
the.
A
A
Tennis
tensen
his
last
name
is
now.
Do
you
remember
dave
what
his
last.
A
Name
was,
I
think,
it's
lewis
tenney
tenny
right.
J
Month
and
since
we
had
the
the
letter
related
to.
I
Of
what
he
outlined
as
far
as
that,
and
I
think
that
we
need
to.
J
I
Is
there's
now
a
looks
like
there's.
I
They
can
save
on
energy
and
also,
I
think
that.
I
I
thought
the
whole
presentation
to
me
was.
I
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
linda
for
sending
the
link.
D
D
And
given
our
way
of
having
a
meeting
here,
I
won't.
D
And
you
access
it
by
west
hillside.
D
Five
stories
parking
on
the
bottom
apartments
on
the
top
and
then
in
the.
D
D
Units
there
and
all
of
the
houses
and
the
the
five-story
buildings.
D
So
they
so
far,
I
the
only
thing
I've
had
to
say
about.
D
Yes,
okay,
I
assume
there's
nothing
from
the
biodiversity
group.
A
Something
reorganized
over
the
last
month.
G
Sure
could
I
ask
a
question
of
linda:
do
you
know
what
type
of
construction.
G
Yes,
I
don't
know
about
the
five-story
buildings.
D
But
the
houses
looked
so
looks
similar
to
the
south
dunn.
D
Neighborhood,
like
kind
of
small
bungalows
for
the
single
family.
D
Things
for
the
the
ones
that
are
going
to.
I
Threat
they're
considered
to
be
engineering-wise
to
be.
I
With
the
overlying
structures
tends
to
result
in
that
lower
floor.
D
I
I
don't
know
my
magic
power,
okay,
I
don't
know,
but
I
will
ask
the.
D
Question
that
is
a
real
major.
F
They
voted
not
to
have
all
individual
names.
F
Commission
and
it
will
be
submitted
to
the.
F
Apparently
hasn't,
and
so
he
and
I.
F
Issue
but
linda
in
fact,
wrote
most
of
the
column.
D
Sentence,
this
is
really
a
pretty
small
deal.
D
It
says
blah
blah
and
the
tree
commission.
A
Dave,
you
can
maybe
speak
to
this
more
if
we're
going
to
make
any
recommended.
A
D
Think
it's
grammatically
fine,
both
ways.
I
just
know
a
lot
of
times.
A
Okay,
any
other
discussion.
A
If
not,
then
we'll
do
our
weird
voting
method.
Again,
everybody.
D
Dave,
I
thought
I
thought
those
were
really.
F
A
Okay:
let's
have
a
vote.
Everybody
in
favor
of.
A
Of
proving
this
letter
say
hi
and
raise
your
hand.
A
I
anybody
could
anybody
that
sees
everybody
at
the
same
time,.
F
Members
here,
okay,
the
motion
passes
unanimously.
A
Might
be
put
together
by
kate
and
jesus,
yes,
jesus
and
I
have
been.
E
Talked
to
linda
a
little
bit
this
morning
about
it,
and
we
came
up
with
a
couple
of.
E
Looked
over
it,
but
there
a
couple
of
options
of
short
statements.
E
If
you
guys
would
like
to
get
an
idea
of
what
we're
thinking
of.
E
E
A
That
you
think
we
should
be
aware
of
mostly
just
in
in
how
they.
E
Community
develops
in
a
way
that
doesn't
expose
vulnerable
minority.
E
Communities
to
all
these
environmental
hazards
and
then
kind
of
lifts
them
all
off,
but
then.
E
City
planning
and
then
the
the
second
or
I
guess.
E
The
the
last
two
sentences
are
basically
the
same
as
in
the.
E
First
middle
part:
I'm
looking
at
here
I'm
looking
at.
F
Pollution
and
smog
and
and
that
sort
of
thing.
I
Again,
tying
it
again
because
the
mayor's
program
that
he
outlined.
E
Okay,
I
I
think
we
can
definitely
put
in.
E
Environmental
hazards,
we
could
easily
put
that
in.
E
E
Like
the
mayor's
plan
or
anything
else,
more
local
or
just.
A
I
More
room
to.
I
Elaborate
a
little
bit
more
on
detail.
That's
what
we've
been
doing
is
called.
D
From
the
ec,
which
is
what
kate
has
presented
tonight
and
then.
D
Take
that
statement
and
include
it
in
they
call
not
this.
This.
D
J
Forward
we
should
think
about
how
we
want
this
to
be
actionable
for
the
for
the
ec.
So,
for
example,
like
linda
just.
J
Like
that,
like
it
all,
sounds
good,
I
mean
we
might
say
this
project
really
helps
like
you
know,
rectify
issues
of
of.
J
Committee,
but
I
think
this
is
a
big
enough
topic
that
perhaps
having
a
subcommittee
on
it
would.
K
It's
drawing
attention
to
the
environmental,
the
deliberate
decision.
K
Choices
that
people
have
made
in
the
past
and
that
and
the
environmental
commissions
like
us,
you
know
we
have
to
really
pay.
K
Attention
to
that
supporting
you,
I
think
first
thing.
I
Comes
to
my
mind,
is
east
chicago,
and
that
is
a.
I
The
epitome
I
think,
in
indiana
and
and
also
issues
in
gary
area
as
well.
I
C
Mpo
citizens
advisory
committee,
we're
actually
discussing
the.
C
C
Environmentally
and
discrimination
that
in
the
mpt
I'm
sorry,
the
mtp.
C
That
affects
the
environment
as
well,
so
yeah.
I
shouldn't
bring
that
up.
H
Near
west
side,
and
that
historically
was
a
black.
A
To
kate
and
jesus
and
we'll
get
to
hopefully
get
something
finalized
for.
A
To
explore
how
we
can
incorporate
this
into
our.
A
Any
thoughts
on
that.
I
know
that
it's
really
common.
K
Housing,
but
also
like
the
racial
impacts
of.
I
The
african
and
hispanic
americans
are
being.
A
Okay,
so
we
will
get
comments
by
mail.
Have
a
final.
G
Can
I
ask
a
question
linda:
do
we
have.
I
Maps
and
information
that
does
show
the
breakdown
of.
A
Pollution
can
be
included
in
that
sort
of
thing
too.
I
don't
know
if
that's.
A
I
Impacted
people
of
lower
income,
a
dumb
question.
I
Problems
with
the
water
over
there
by
jb
salvage.
A
What
current
status
of
what
things
that
they've
been
working
on.
E
Okay,
I
can,
I
can
start
well.
I.
E
I'm
finishing
up
my
last
few
classes
for
my
dual
degree
and
I.
E
Thank
you
very
much,
but
I
will
be
leaving
and.
E
This
is
it
for
me,
yeah,
I
I
guess
my
other
update
would
be.
E
That
I
have
been
working
on
the
green
space
report,
but.
E
I'm
still
looking
for
a
couple
of
pieces,
I
guess
for
those.
E
Of
you
who
weren't
here
when
I
started
working
on
it,
the
the
environmental
commission
has
in
the
past
done
a
green
space
report.
E
And
I
was
doing
that
at
the
beginning
of
this
year
or
the
semester,
because
I.
E
Getting
all
the
data
that
I
needed
like
from
the
city,
computers
and
from
certain
city
employees,
but
I'm
I'm
confident
that
I
can.
E
Wrap
that
up
before
I
leave
so
I
guess
that's,
that's
the
only.
L
I
have
an
update
as
well.
If
kate,
I
don't
want
to.
L
Are
you
good,
yeah,
okay?
So
this
is
a
project
that
kate
and
I
kind.
L
Of
started
a
little
while
ago,
through
much
of
last.
L
Winter,
we
were
trudging
through
snow
and
a
couple
of
snow
and
mud.
L
Have
been
done
so
we
largely
surveyed,
I
want
to
say
I.
L
L
Had
been
mowed
or
where
they
just
weren't
taken
care.
L
Of
enough
and
invasive
species
that
already
started
taking
over,
we
do
want
to
give
props
to
a
couple
of
folks
specifically.
L
This
was
a
city
development
and
I
always
forget
the
name
of
it
is.
L
Pretty
for
you
all,
there's
gonna
be
some
photos
as
well
and
then
we'll
be
sending
it
over
at
some
point.
But
I'm
happy
to
answer
a
few
questions.
If
you
have
them
sort
of
pretty
quickly.
K
Weeks,
jesus,
if
you
need
help
going
over
the
revisions
for
the.
A
Matt,
do
you
have
anything
one
personal
announcement
is
as
of
this.
I
Thursday's
meeting
was
to
maybe
whether
to.
I
Remain
with
asian
bush,
honeysuckle
or
possibly
greenbrier,
and
I
forgot
the.
I
The
other
one
off
the
top
of
my
head,
but
the
discussion
was
maybe
to.
I
Have
more
than
one
or
pick
a
new
target
invasive.
A
Shelby,
I
have
no
no
announcements.
Okay,.
A
Reagan's
not
here
daniel,
so
what
I
brought
up
with
the
monroe.
C
They're
the
survey
they're
doing
and
I
think.
C
C
Listening
to
it,
it
sounds
like
they.
They
want
to
do
a
survey
basically
from.
C
Don't
I
don't
recall
the
timeline
to
add
for.
C
Sending
out
the
survey,
but
I'm
wondering
as
to
how
the
everyone
would
feel
about
me
reaching
out
to
them
and
see
if
we
could.
C
Collaborate
with
them
on
this
survey
and
work
with
them,
maybe
to
our.
C
F
In
a
meeting
right
now,
yeah
no
problem.
C
With
them
they
may
say
no
and
then
I
guess
next.
C
Me
I
could
bring
up
the
idea
of
us
doing
our
own
survey.
It
just
sounds.
C
A
C
To
them
and
then
second
thing
was
they.
C
C
Maybe
something
that
could
have
brought
up
an
outreach,
but
the
idea
of
us
starting
the
bloomington
environmental.
C
Commission
starting
a
facebook
page
and
a
twitter
account
for
outreach
running
that
idea
across
people's
thoughts.
I
B
Ago
I
I
remember
at
one
point
on
outreach.
C
C
Communicate
with
the
public-
and
you
know
like
right
now-
we
don't
have
anyone
really
from
the
public
at
this
meeting,
but
having
a
social
media
account
which
allows
to
broadcast
when
our
meetings.
C
C
All
the
difference
and
what
a
commission
does
as
far
as
getting
their
ambitions
out
there.
B
D
The
rules,
so
let
me
let
me
check
on
it.
Okay,
another
item
for
next
month's.
F
System
on,
I
thought
I
was
muted,
nothing
else
to
say:
okay,.
A
Losing
our
interns
for
at
least
for
a
while
we're
probably.
A
A
D
Washington
he's
just
unsure
about
his
starting.
D
E
F
Was
going
to
mention
one
thing
I
was,
I
was
in
the
epa
on
a
summer.
A
If
not
we're
adjourned.
