E

Jeff, okay, make me the co-host, then.

C

Oh wait a minute there we go. Oh okay, we got it we're good to go excellent.

F

Okay, so I'll take you through the various funds.

F

Basically, we do do a roll forward of the cash balances um by project by major.

F

Projects so I'll touch on the big ticket items, and then you know if there are any questions, feel free to ask along the way. um So, starting with the the uh consolidated.

F

Tiff, uh which is fun 439, we started with a.

F

Balance of 19 million 976 00037.

F

um We had a about 10.8 million dollars of uh revenue, most of which was on was.

F

Property taxes um we had you know some interest income.

F

uh Some grants and other small items, but.

F

Primarily, it's funded by property taxes and then I'll just touch.

F

On some of the bigger bigger expense items we had.

F

Bonded lease payments of just over 2.8 million.

F

The winslow henderson side path. We had a million two a little over a million.

F

Two and expenditures um you'll see. I have highlighted.

F

Dimension mill and uh and trades district- um I just I.

F

Do that because um I total them, you know from the.

F

There are expenses that are are born by multiple funds, and so.

F

Because uh that crosses uh multiple funds, I I.

F

Highlighted that and then have a total at the bottom, um relatively low, spend.

F

uh Last year um out of uh 439, but there were some other expenses that.

F

Were incurred in other funds that you'll see in a little bit um the.

F

West 17th street road construction was just under 2.4 million.

F

Four street parking garage a little over 1.6 million.

F

And then the convention center parking garage was.

F

Just under 5 million, so we had uh again, we had uh inco income of uh 10.8.

F

Million we had expenses of 13.6 million.

F

Leaving us with an ending balance, as of 1231.

F

Seven, just under 17.2 million um the the prowl road tiff.

F

It's fun for uh 446, not a whole lot of activity.

F

uh We uh started with a balance of just under 680 000.

F

um Had a total revenue of 108, almost 109 000 again, the majority being.

F

Property taxes and then some interest as well.

F

um And then the spend was 18 000 on cascade's trail. So not a lot of.

F

Activity uh in that particular fund, hey kevin, let.

C

Me jump in for just a second, uh because we got it on one brand new.

C

Member and and eric's relatively new, um we used to.

C

Have multiple uh tiff uh funds so like.

C

Downtown and uh uh thompson and some others.

C

And in 2015 uh under state statute, we were allowed.

C

To consolidate those uh and issue debt on those, so.

C

And we actually expanded them as well, so we took.

C

Multiples of different tif areas uh combined them into one. So that's why.

C

We call it the consolidated tiff. We continue to track expenditures within.

C

Each of those allocation areas and some of them have.

C

Expiration dates that are sooner than uh consolidated bond that kevin will.

C

Talk about here in a second as far as the expenders out of that, the.

C

One that we didn't was the proud which is uh north of town.

C

uh It's the cook um building, uh that's out there and the and the.

C

Small medical plaza, so it's not very large.

C

uh There's not a lot of activity that goes on and.

C

Primarily, we funded cascades park, type of expenditures. Out of that.

C

Including a lot of side path and sidewalk projects to extend.

C

Actually out, as far as we can get with the money that we've allowed, that we've.

C

Got in the fund uh towards the park itself so just.

C

Wanted to give nick some background that there were there.

C

Used to be a a lot more of these, but we did consolidate them down in, uh but we did promise both the council.

C

And the rdc that we would continue to uh track expenditures by those different.

C

Allocation areas so that uh we could show that the concern was.

C

Well, we will all end up spending it in say the downtown.

C

And not the other areas, and so, um as you all that's been on for a while.

C

You know we've approved projects all throughout uh the the consolidated tips, so I didn't want to jump in and.

C

Provide that information go ahead. I appreciate that.

F

Okay, so uh continuing on um the next uh fund is the as jeff mentioned, the.

F

Consolidated tip bond fund, which is fun 976.,.

F

uh We started with uh 30 million uh just under 30.4 million of uh cash.

F

Balance we had 408 000.

F

uh Income interest income for the year.

F

And then the the uh the obviously the single largest.

F

Expenditure was related to switch yard park uh was just under 20.7 million.

F

um As I mentioned before, we have the additional trades district spend.

F

Of uh 687 000 um and then that'll tie into the the.

F

Balance at the end, but uh total expenses of 20 point just under.

F

20.5 million bringing our ballots as of the end of.

F

The year at 9.3 million.

F

um The next fund is the ctp fund fund 430.. We started with a balance.

F

Of 148 000 I had interest of 2000 and spend on the.

F

Dimension mill, project of 82 000, and so I I did combine those.

F

Those two, the trade dimension mill and the trades.

F

District in the in the total at the bottom, um so.

F

We had uh expenditures of 82.4.

F

000 leaving us with an ending balance of 67.4.

F

000., um the housing trust. Oh excuse me, um housing trust uh fund.

F

905. we had a beginning balance of uh just under 1.3 million. um We had.

F

uh Interest uh revenue, principal repayment and then grant.

F

Revenue for a total of 79 000 105., we had expenses.

F

For hdp bloomington cooperative living of 242 000, giving us an ending balance.

F

Of 1 million 131 000., um then the ctp bond.

F

Fund 975, we had a beginning balance of 145.

F

uh Just under 146 000 um didn't have any any revenue and had.

F

Middle minimal expenses on on the dimension mill.

F

Of uh just under 4 000 leaving us with a balance of.

F

142 000 and then you can see at the bottom.

F

The trades district um across all funds and that that included the dimension.

F

Bill spent as well, I was 863 000 and then obviously.

F

Switchdog park was a significant spend at.

F

um Just under 20.8 million.

F

So, that's! That's! That's that so my question, my quick question right.

G

Now is uh larry, you didn't mention that you, the.

G

Consolidation that there's also a little bit of an expansion of the.

G

Funds am I did I mishear that no, when we uh nick it was jeff, not larry,.

G

Okay, sorry, sorry, people get confused all the time.

C

We're so both good looking exactly yeah we expanded when we.

C

Consolidated we expanded the areas. Basically, if you look at the.

C

Consolidated tiff, it's a it's a if you look at it on a map.

C

It's basically a reverse e, with the spine going down.

C

uh Essentially, from around 17th street on the north side, all the way down to.

C

I believe it's roar south and then we go down the major.

C

Arterials so 2nd street 3rd street 17th street.

C

Out west side do those include the big box stores on.

G

The other side of 67 39.

C

A little bit a little bit, but not much yeah, actually.

C

Whitehall crossing uh there's a little bit of an over.

C

uh Overlay between the counties, tiff and artif.

C

So we do go uh almost all the way over to.

C

City boundary uh that would be just east of like ge, the lge plant.

G

You're right right, right, yeah, okay, that makes sense.

G

um And then and then they overlay on top of that.

C

So, oh that makes sense. Okay, um then. My second question is 20 million.

G

774 000 on switzerland park just in 2019 is that is that correct.

F

That's yeah, that's correct. Okay,.

C

And that project finishing up this year so they'll there there's a little.

C

There'll be some expenditures in 20 on that one.

D

You should probably just note on switchyard park. I think the the overall budget for the construction of that was somewhere around 34 million.

D

G

Okay, all right that that helps with my uh better understanding of that.

G

Thank you. I appreciate that yeah and the other thing is.

C

That uh on the right-hand side of it, as we do.

C

You we try to track the uh resolutions for you.

C

Because, obviously come on so we'll show the original one and then.

C

You can see like switch uh animal shelter, had a bunch.

C

uh Going all the way out there, we do track those back and and keep.

C

Keep ahold of those for you appreciate that. Thank you.

I

uh Any more questions.

I

Okay, is there a ctp update report, it's alex no uh none. Today, okay,.

I

All right, hey, thank you for your reports.

I

The next item of business or new business.

I

And this uh starts our public hearing portion.

I

The next item of business is resolution. 20-35.

I

Approval of the covid 19 review committee recommendations is.

I

There anyone that would wish to speak in regards to this resolution. I.

B

Can speak? This is eric sater assistant director of hand.

B

So, just a bit of background for folks we tend to get an annual allocation of.

B

Community development block grant funds. This is in addition to that usual.

B

Allocation, uh so it was a decent amount at 525, 656.

B

It has to hit all of the regular requirements of community development.

B

Block grant but there's an additional layer of requirement, which is prevention, preparation and response through the.

B

Karazak to covet 19 and so you're, looking at kind of that.

B

Dual layer of eligibility when we're seeing these applications.

B

So, with the amount that's allowed, there's some flexibilities that were.

B

Also allowed through the cares act. One of these flexibilities was the.

B

Lifting of a cap on public services, so instead of a 15 cap, we could spend.

B

Any that we wanted essentially toward public services, which tends to be an area that we like to focus on.

B

Particularly when we're looking at spending these dollars, we had to focus.

B

On expediency and that's some of the easiest ways, we can do it instead of building something. For instance, we can funnel this money through our social service agencies, to take action.

B

And so with that, uh we only thought we needed about half of the 20 percent.

B

Allowed for administration, which would be about 52 566, so 10.

B

To go toward admin and the rest, we intend to funnel toward different public.

B

Service agencies in town to meet national objectives, while.

B

Responding to the 19 needs, so that's 473 thousand. That would go.

B

Toward covet, in regard to the particular approvals in.

B

Exhibit a that we're requesting the short of it is. We were originally.

B

Trying to prioritize certain needs such as housing such as.

B

Child care such as food- and we did so- but we ended up only.

B

Getting applications that didn't actually hit that full allocation, and so any money that was applied for.

B

That met all of the eligibility criteria. um Ultimately, the committee decided to.

B

Fund this committee was a bit of a slim down committee.

B

In part for expediency, as I mentioned, largely internal, but we also had john.

B

Barata externally beverly calendar anderson from cfrd. um So still a group of folks and we did.

B

Receive public input on this, but, in short, uh anyone who applied.

B

That would be boys and girls, club, hoosier hills, middleweight house, mother,.

B

Hubbards, my sister's closet, new hope for families, new leaf new life.

B

Shalom community center, those were the agencies that at least.

B

Some of their funds were eligible for expenditures.

B

And so the committee decided to recommend approval.

B

To the full amount possible of eligible expenses in those applications.

B

And so that would uh add up, I believed 253.

B

862 dollars, which means we would still have several hundred thousand dollars to.

B

Spend in a second round- and so hopefully we.

B

Can do some additional outreach, um some more targeted outreach now that.

B

We know what we'll fund in this first round and have another round in the next couple months um to spend the remaining.

B

Funds there um so we're seeking approval of the round one uh expenditures which again are everything that was.

B

Eligible, we thought made sense for the community and we'd like to go ahead and get those funds out there.

I

Okay, any questions for many commissioners in regards to.

I

Revolution or uh resolution 20-35.

I

Right? Who wants to make a motion? uh Just just briefly done, because this is a.

D

Public hearing, okay, so are there uh any uh public.

I

Comments or questions in regarding resolution uh 20-35.

J

Okay, thank you. Thank you. um So any questions.

I

From commissioners in regards to this resolution and if not a question.

H

Just a comment for the record to thank the.

H

Committee and the applicants alike, for.

H

Helping us to take needed advantage of uh this new opportunity.

G

I think this is uh an appropriate way to be able to.

G

Get the money in a quick fashion to those that need it and.

G

What better way to the social services that are.

G

You know fighting this on a day-to-day basis.

G

I

Was there a motion in any of that that you guys did.

I

You were still just coming: yeah, okay. I.

G

I moved to approve uh 20-35.

I

Okay. Second, oh second, next uh motion: this is david walter.

J

uh uh All those in favor I don griffin cappus, I.

H

Sand voice, I walter yes.

I

Motion is approved uh next item of business.

I

Is resolution 20-36? This is the addendum to cso design.

I

Agreement who would like uh or need to speak, who.

I

Wants her, who would love to speak in regards to this resolution? I can speak briefly to it. uh So cso.

D

uh Has been our uh architect with for the fourth street and trades.

D

District garage, as you know, with the fourth street garage in particular, it.

D

Required a redesign to redesign it for the smaller footprint.

D

This is essentially an addendum to their agreement for to cover the services for.

D

That smaller footprint to do all of the final design work for that.

D

For that particular area for the new fourth.

D

Street garage as you'll see this additional amount for.

D

The redesign was 281 200.

D

Which brought the total funding to just over one million dollars for their.

D

Design services on the garage.

I

Any questions in regards to this resolution folks.

G

um My first question is: what was the original budget for architectural design.

G

Was there one yeah there? There was one.

C

Larry you jumping for that one. Do you want to you want to take this one jeff.

C

I'm, uh if you give me a second I can, I can open up my spreadsheet. That's got.

C

um And you know what okay, while you're, while you're looking for.

I

That can I ask the public if, uh if they have any questions,.

I

uh Anyone uh from the public uh have any questions in regards to uh resolution.

I

I

Okay, nope so go ahead! Sorry! Sorry, I'm the difficult one.

D

It's not it's actually not difficult at all. The problem was one of the things we.

D

Had is we had these combined at one point, uh the trades district in the fourth street garages, and so we've since.

D

Separated them out, and so now it's like a matter of just figuring out where, where we separated them out sorry about that.

D

Oh you're, fine, it just seemed good there. It was.

C

It was, it was, it was.

C

With my, was it 1.6 for both or something like that.

C

It was, uh let's see the amendment was for 281.

C

Yeah, so uh it was about around four hundred thousand dollars or so.

C

There's a combined contract 691 now on wait a minute. That's not right, opened.

C

Up the wrong yeah hang on okay.

C

Too many versions of my reconciliation for.

C

The garage it's been through quite the ringer.

C

There we go because I knew it was a, I knew it was a calculation, so uh the.

C

Total is 9.722, the first contract was 691.

C

Or uh for street okay, so we're up to one mil.

G

So this is that slightly faster yeah, it's slightly yeah 972.

G

um So my question is, then: um how does that.

G

Is this a situation where what we've talked about before with change orders.

G

Where there's a certain amount that you have allocated.

G

As a buffer that this would eat up from us from a budgeting standpoint,.

C

Good good question actually dick we will be bringing to you.

C

uh The final gmp on the 20th we had originally thought we would do it today.

C

uh But we are more comfortable uh reconciling that.

C

uh Taking a little bit more time, and actually in that request,.

C

We'll go through where we're at, uh but just to give you a.

C

Highlight um I think, we're probably going to have sufficient.

C

Funds on hand out of the bond uh based on.

C

um Some value engineering that we're going to do, but probably what we're.

C

Going to come and do is on 4th street is ask for an.

C

Additional 500 000 in the funding.

C

Agreement uh so that we can accept all of the alternates that was in the.

C

Last bid, however, we do have built into that.

C

And a a contingency of about that amount uh and we're gonna also have some.

C

Value engineering that they're reviewing, so that was one of the reasons why we wanted to bump that to the 20th is.

C

Cso is evaluating those these were recommendations back by the low bidders.

C

On some possible savings, so essentially what we would do is bump.

C

Our contingency up by half a million uh and then we would just keep track of.

C

That and let you all know if we use that, but the hope is based on the last reconciliation that I did with josh with.

C

Core is that we may not need those additional funds between.

C

The contingency that we have built in and.

C

The value engineering, but I didn't want to cut it- that close.

C

I'd rather your money up front and then come back and tell you whether we need.

C

It or not, but I'm hoping we won't okay. Well, that makes sense. I appreciate.

G

The uh the the lowdown on all that I mean chef.

G

Sorry, I'm so sorry, that's all right. I've been I've been called.

C

Many things nick when, when life gets back to normal I'll, invite you to come into my office and see the plaque that sits above my.

C

Desk, that has a number of my nicknames that I have garnered.

C

uh Is my second time around uh alex is on the call he's.

C

Laughing because he knows hey, jeff, yeah, hey, uh depending on what.

I

uh Those value added.

I

Cost cutting things are, um can we can we still have both options.

I

Do you think, because I'm just saying it uh do you think that aesthetically it's.

I

Going to uh change things at all I mean because.

I

We're talking about a project, that's gonna, we're talking about a building, that's gonna last, for I mean how long how long's the the life.

I

Of this 60 years at least uh I'm hoping so that's the plan.

C

uh Yeah it's cut down. We would rather have a.

I

Something that we're comfortable with looking at.

I

uh Yeah, I mean essentially, it gets down to the.

C

The final two alternates are some build out on the commercial space.

C

And the build out of the offices uh parking garage offices, and so we.

C

Believe those are both very valuable projects.

C

We, I I'm very certain that if we would have to bid.

C

After the fact that uh they would increase the cost more than what the.

C

Alternates are going to be so. uh The goal is to.

C

Add in all the alternates which includes this.

C

The extra floor, which is a full floor on the garage.

C

It includes uh painting the uh crash wall.

C

uh On the art uh that would be on the sides facing the art, because we think.

C

From the artist's recommendation is that it will.

C

Make the art pop more so that we don't have this kind of plain gray.

C

Background in behind the mesh that they're going to put up.

C

It puts that second elevator, in which we think is extremely.

C

Important, uh so everything that we we did as.

C

Alternates, uh we, we believe, uh are needed and we believe they add to.

C

The garage and uh we'd like to go ahead and fund them.

C

Now because we think it's going to be the lowest cost alternative.

C

As a part of that, but we did that so that we could see them as we went.

C

Through the funding, but we got some very competitive bids. I.

C

Think we got at least two uh bidders on everything, but.

C

uh Concrete, which will helm uh was the only bitter and they just kind of scared.

C

Everybody else off, but cso and and core and myself have.

C

Reviewed uh their bids, we think they're very competitive uh we've. Also. They also bid on and got.

C

Some of the concrete work on uh trades districts, so it was very.

C

Compatible uh comparable and it does fit within the statute of.

C

Allowing them to self-perform it'll be under 20.

C

So uh we think we think we've got a great package to bring to you guys.

C

And uh we just want to have the the ability to do these extras.

C

That we think are needed. Okay, we still have our public bathrooms right.

C

Yes, sir, okay, all right all the amenities that we talked about so.

C

All the green features are included. The solar's in there.

C

uh The bicycle.

C

Parking, the bicycle repair stuff, the bicycle.

C

Garages, black storage, uh uh the.

C

Electrical cars plug-ins uh compact cars- all of that is included. uh I think we're.

C

Gonna end up with a really you know for a garage, we're gonna have a very nice garage, and you know I know, there's there's opponents to any kind of.

C

A structured parking, but again it's going up, it's compact urban form uh and we think we've got some great pricing on it.

I

Okay, cool any other questions, guys and gals just got it today.

I

A

Okay, I'd like to make a motion. We accept resolution 20-30.

H

Second motion: this is eric sandwich uh all uh all in favor.

I

Aye don griffin, aye campus sandwich aye walter rye.

I

Not opposed the motion carries uh the next side of a business is.

I

Resolution 20-37 uh change order, number seven for west.

I

17Th street reconstruction, just briefly, I know that.

D

We're going to have our planning person speak to this, but there was a correction.

D

That I sent out to you all uh the change order was off uh by a.

D

Thousand dollars it should have been thirteen thousand dollars instead of twelve. So there's an amended resolution that you should have received in an email uh just to look at for this and with.

D

That I'll, let matt take it away, since this is his baby.

K

A good evening max miller's with planning transportation.

K

uh Change order, seven is for two items: there's additional rent payment for the.

K

Field office after the original completion date for.

K

The project was november of 19 and when they got pushed to june of this.

K

Year, because of the utility delays and the rock excavation delays.

K

We had to pay for the field office for additional months.

K

We have a consultant inspector who is using the field office.

K

Back in april, the consultant switched inspectors.

K

The new inspector said they didn't need to field office any longer to complete.

K

The project, so this is just for five months from you.

K

Know december through april. The second item is for.

K

Additional tree removal there were two trees on the project that.

K

Were supposed to remain, but after the grading was completed, the.

K

Dirt goes up about a foot or so onto these two trees. uh We talked with.

K

The city's urban forester and she determined his best to go ahead.

K

And remove the trees, the long-term health long-term health was.

K

Not good in her estimation, uh since we had already put.

K

Our sidewalk and sod and other new investments here.

K

They had to bring a crane in to remove the two trees.

K

So that those items weren't damaged and that's why the cost.

K

Is more than what we normally see to take some trees down.

K

um We also are adding five days to the contract, with this change order.

K

uh The removal of the trees was in conflict with working on the walls.

K

So that's appropriate to add the five days.

K

uh This change order also is pending. Approval of the board of public works.

K

We're on the agenda with them tomorrow evening.

K

And, as I was already mentioned, the total for this change order is.

K

Thirteen thousand five hundred forty dollars and seventy five cents.

K

I can answer any questions you might have.

I

Any questions from the audience or the public.

I

In regards to resolution, 20-37.

I

None: how about.

I

Commissioners,.

I

No okay. Do we have a motion.

G

I move to approve resolution 20-37 I'll. Second, all those in favor.

I

Aye, don griffin, aye capus sand voice.

H

I walter motion is approved. uh The.

I

Next item of business is resolution: 20-38 extension of agreement.

I

And funding for trade district lawn care who wants to speak in regards to this.

I

Resolution I can do that unless larry you want to.

K

Do it it doesn't matter by the way uh I I can.

D

Do it briefly alex and you can correct anything that I completely get.

D

We could try it that way. I, like my public humiliation.

D

um No uh so the city lawn they're, the they've, been.

D

Mowing the trace district lawn, uh we had a contract with them.

D

Last year, this is to extend it through this year. They have continued to mow the.

D

Trades district we had communicated with them that we desired to have them continue mowing it. So this is just to update the budget.

D

Amount, I think, last year we had budgeted uh around.

D

Seven thousand dollars for the entire year for the maintenance of the trades district. However, we didn't use that much.

D

So there's a reduced amount for 2020 to 6000.

D

Which is enough to cover what we have used for 2019 and give us a little bit.

D

Of wiggle room because there's more rain or more growth.

D

For some reason, but this is essentially to continue that contract on.

D

We do have this expiring at the end of the year.

D

And we'll we'll negotiate with city lawn at the end of the year to see if they.

D

Want to take the option for the next two years of their contract as well at the end of 2020.. So, okay.

I

Any questions from the public in regards to.

I
