Good
evening
everyone
I'm
going
to
share
my
screen.
I
have
a
presentation
prepared.
This
will
hopefully
guide
the
disc
or
you
know
just
guide
some
of
the
discussion
that
I'll
be
talking
about
what
we've
been
doing
and
also
posing
some
questions,
because
it'd
be
great
to
get
the
feedback
of
the
hra
as
we're.
You
know
as
we're
developing
this
ordinance
it.
It
does
come
before
the
city
council
on
august
8th.
H
H
In
2019,
there
was
an
ordinance
update
which
dealt
with
the
minimum
lot
size
and
the
size
of
the
accessory
dwelling
unit
or
adu.
It's
no.
It's
notable
to
to
say
that
since
2009,
only
two
adus
have
been
approved
and
only
one
constructed
since
the
original
adoption
in
2009.
So
that's
part
of
the
motivation
with
this
round
of
revisions
and
I'll
get
to
what
we're
hoping
to
accomplish.
H
H
Okay,
yes,
so
a
little
bit
more
background.
Last
year,
staff
did
a
meeting
a
joint
meeting
with
the
planning
commission
in
hra
back
in
october,
if
I'm
not
sure
who
was
all
there
if
there's
been
any
turnover
in
hra,
because
I
just
joined
the
city
back
at
the
end
of
march
of
this
year,
so
I'm
fairly
new.
H
If
that
gives
you
some
idea
of
my
relative
newness
with
this
topic,
in
fact,
so
the
city
council
also
held
a
study
session
in
september
of
february
of
this
year,
and
we
also
had
a
let's
talk.
Bloomington
page,
we
had
a
winter,
we
had
a
table
at
the
winner's
farm
farmers
market
and
we
also
did
some
engagement
at
creekside
community
center.
H
This
the
the
analysis
that
we
performed
and
we
that
we're
now
suggesting
revisions
include
the
adu
definition,
which
is
kind
of
scattered
throughout
the
city
code,
but
nonetheless
we've.
We
found
all
all
the
examples
within
city
code
and
we're
just
creating
some
consistency
between
the
definition
we're
now
adding
detached
adus.
H
H
So
yeah,
the
big
one,
is
the
detached
adus.
In
fact,
if
you
look
to
the
right
on
this
slide,
you'll
see
a
a
detached
adu
behind
the
main
home
and
that's
kind
of
the
form
that's
being
promoted.
I
mean
not
exactly
with
this.
You
know
it.
Doesn't
it
doesn't
transfer
one
to
one
to
to
bloomington,
but
nonetheless
it
will
be
a
fully
separate
structure
that
will
have
that
will
meet
building
code
and
we'll
have
all
the
facilities
necessary
to
be
to
count
as
a
dwelling
unit.
H
In
fact,
maybe
I'll
also
talk
touch
upon
the
conversations
we've
been
having
with
that
faith,
jackson
and
and
her
role
in
managing
the
racial
equity
impact
analyses
for
these
types
of
proposals
for
the
city,
and
we
had
a
conversation
just
recently,
and
we
touched
upon
some
of
the
impacts
of
this
policy
and
what
and
how
it'll
affect
different
parts
of
the
city
and
it's
primarily
a
consequence
of
of
lot
size.
So
a
lot
bigger
lot
sizes
are
on
the
west
side
of
the
city.
H
Here,
I'm
going
to
pull
up
a
slide
because
I
actually
have
I
prepared
some
graphics
that
kind
of
show
where,
where
adu
is,
if,
if
passed
in
the
form
that
we're
proposing
where
detached
adus
will
be
eligible
to
be
built
and
those
lots
that
will
be
eligible
to
host
them.
So
this
shows
where
impervious
surface
is
30
or
greater
greater.
H
The
suggested
ordinance
will
have
will
allow
adus
on
properties
that
comply
with
impervious
surface
limits
of
35
percent,
however,
or
less
so
if
they're
30
percent
are
greater
they're
already
at
risk
of
having
too
much
impervious
surface
coverage
on
the
property
and,
what's
notable
is
that
there
does
seem
to
be
a
fairly
even
distribution
of
properties
across
the
city.
Well,
I
mean
it.
This
staff
hasn't
performed
that
level
analysis.
H
H
We
overlay
that
those
lots
over
the
census
tracks
that
have-
and
you
know
this-
this
shows
those
census
tracts
that
have
a
a
bypoc
population
of
a
certain
percentage.
You
know
a
proportion
of
their
population
identifies
as
bipac
and
again
so.
Those
census
tracts
that
have
a
higher
proportion
of
the
bypoc
population
are
concentrated
in
those
census
tracts
to
the
east,
and
that
also
corresponds
with
that
concentration
of
again
just
through
visual
expansion
inspection.
H
A
F
But
I
guess
is
there
anything
to
say
somebody
couldn't
go
and
get
say
like
one
of
the
pre-fabricated
tin
sheds
that
you'd
see
way
up
north
drop
it
down
and
as
long
as
it
was
retrofitted,
with
sanitary
and
cooking
and
all
the
things
you'd
expect
in
the
adu
that
that
would
fly.
I
just
there's
there's
a
lot
of
big
tin
buildings
out
there.
It
seems,
like
would
technically
work.
H
Oh
I'm
sorry,
yes,
commissioner,
thank
you
for
that
question.
The
standards,
those
performance
standards
that
we
subject
single-family
homes
to
would
be
similar
toward
to
the
adus,
so
it
would
be
it
would
have
to
include
comparable
materials,
they're
also
considered
accessory
structures
and
within
code,
currently
accessory
structures
have
to
have
the
outward
appearance
of
the
main
home
in
terms
of
style
and
building
material,
so
that
would
also
be
something
that
would
be
imposed
upon
the
any
proposed
detached
adus
in
the
city.
Okay,
thank
you
very
much.
C
C
H
H
We
will
discuss
with
them
what
the
standards
are.
What
are
the
limitations?
What
are
the
difficulties
with
their
particular
property,
with
hosting
an
adu
or
and
also
provide
suggestions
for
opportunities,
we're
willing
to
work
with
them?
It's
just
that
it
never
gets
to
the
application
phase
if
we
don't
see
a
viable
path
to
getting
a
an
adu
approved.
H
So
it
is
a
very
new
building
model
where
people
will
come
in
and
ask
questions
and
that's
where
we
can
engage
them,
but
we
don't
need
to
put
them
through
the
application
process
if
they're,
just
there's
no
way
to
to
get
a
an
adu
as
it's
currently
written
in
the
approved
form
of
an
adu,
as
as
it
is
in
city
code.
So
we
it
doesn't
really
progress
beyond
that.
H
I
will
say
that,
because
I've
been
working
on
this,
I've
been
having
a
lot
more
conversations
with
residents
and
telling
them
that
there
is
this
opportunity
for
detached
adus
to
be
allowed.
That's
gonna
be
taken
up
by
the
city,
so
there
is,
there
is
interest.
We
do
get
a
lot
of
calls
and
we
got
emails
from
residents
that
are
interested
in
this
this
building
model,
and
so
I
I
can
only
speak
to
my
experience
since
the
end
of
march.
H
A
A
Are
there
any
other
questions
or
comments?
Mr
rammer
rambler
olson
for
myself?
I
am
I'm
glad
to
see
this
moving
forward.
When
we
had
our
joint
meeting
with
the
planning
commission
oftentimes,
we
discuss
things
that
we
think
are
really
good
ideas
and
then
that's
as
far
as
they
go,
and
I'm
really
happy
to
see
this
moving
forward,
because
I
think
this
is
going
to
help
with
affordable
housing.
It's
we're
trying
to
be
creative
and
I
think
that's
what
was
the
goal.
So
thank
you
very
much.
I
I
Bob
anderson
is
one
of
our
social
workers
who
works
out
of
the
creekside
community
center,
and
we
also
provide
help
to
caregivers
along
with
that
service.
The
nice
thing
about
having
social
workers
on
staff
is
that
we
can
refer
our
folks
in
the
home
program
when
it's
warranted.
We
had
a
call
from
one
of
our
home
clients
and
it
was
kind
of
a
scattered
message
and
we
didn't
know
quite
what
was
going
on.
I
They
didn't
know
quite
what
they're
going
to
do
next,
they
were
taking
off
time
from
work
and
trying
to
be
with
her
because
she
just
experienced
this
medical
situation,
and
so
we
were
able
to
refer
them
to
talk
to
bob
our
social
worker,
and
then
he
was
able
to
go
on
and
connect
them
to
resources,
respite
and
other
resources.
So
it's
really
nice
from
my
viewpoint
to
have
those
social
workers
available
and
we
can
kind
of
work
together
and
work
with
city
staff
as
well.
I
So
the
home
program
is
pretty
self-explanatory.
I
think
we're
all
about
aging
in
place.
You
guys
were
just
talking
about
that
with
the
adus.
I
think
it's
great
to
have
more
housing
options.
What
we
try
to
do
is
help
older
adults
stay
in
their
homes
by
providing
assistance
with
maintenance
lawn
mowing
snow
shoveling.
I
Our
minor
repair
program
is
really
popular.
We
do
lots
of
different
projects,
we're
actually
pretty
excited
gearing
up
for
a
project
here
in
bloomington
we're
going
to
have
a
couple.
Large
volunteer
groups
come
through
a
couple
of
our
paid
staff
and
we're
going
to
actually
paint
an
entire
home.
So
it's
nice
to
see
kind
of
as
covet
has
taken
a
back
seat,
hopefully
for
a
long
time
and
for
the
future,
but
the
volunteer
groups
are
coming
out
more
now,
so
that's
really
great
to
see
them
engaging
more.
I
They
can
go
to
a
participating
hospital
and
they'll
accept
medicare's
full
payment.
So
it's
really
a
great
program.
Again.
Our
social
workers
will
work
with
people
who
fall
in
that
kind
of
income
range
and
get
them
connected
a
lot
of
times.
Medical
bills,
especially
if
they
have
a
chronic
condition,
can
become
a
really
big
deal,
obviously
even
that
20
percent.
So
this
is
a
great
program
for
those
who
qualify.
I
I
Our
newest
service
is
a
technology
support
service.
We're
really
excited
about
this
one
we're
going
to
be
starting,
probably
in
the
next
month
or
two
here,
we're
going
to
work
with
creekside
to
have
a
volunteer
there
on
a
regular
basis
where
people
can
come
into
the
center,
bring
their
devices
get
one-on-one
technical
assistance.
We're
also
going
to
be
doing
that
in-home.
I
We
got
some
funding
through
hennepin
county,
so
we
have
a
year
grant
to
do.
This,
we've
actually
been
doing
it
already
up
in
wright
and
sherburne
county
for
the
last
about
two
and
a
half
three
years.
So
we
have
a
model
and
we
kind
of
know
what
we
need
to
do,
but
I
think
kovid
showed
all
of
us
that
technology
is
something
you
can't
really
live
without
older
adults
were
in
no
different
situation
where
they
were
isolated
and
cut
off,
and
I
think
we
all
realized
that
technology's
almost
becoming
like
a
basic
utility
right.
I
It's
like
electricity
or
gas,
it's
hard
to
hard
to
survive
and
thrive
without
it.
I
think
one
of
the
reasons
I
our
my
repair
program
has
become
so
popular
because
you
know
five,
six,
seven.
Whatever
number
of
years
ago,
you
used
to
pull
out
the
yellow
pages
right,
you
could
search
under
plumbers
and
you
could
maybe
find
a
plumber
or
talk
to
a
friend.
I
Well
now,
if
you're
not
connected
to
the
internet,
I
mean,
if
I
need
a
plumber,
I
probably
go
to
next
door,
or
some
kind
of
you
know
site
like
that
and
try
to
get
some
information.
But
if
you're
not
online,
you
know
how
do
you
know
where
to
turn
to
find
repair,
people
or
other
people
that
you
need
for
the
maintenance
of
your
home?
So
we're
really
excited
about
this
technology
support.
What
we
found
is
that
what
older
adults
typically
want
is
one-on-one
help.
I
We've
done
some
ipad
classes
and
other
classes
like
that.
There
are
some
options
for
that.
You
know
through
the
community
and
other
things,
but
what
we've
really
found
is
that
that
one-on-one
help
is
what
the
older
adults
really
like
the
appointment,
either
at
a
community
setting
or
going
into
someone's
home
as
needed.
So
we're
really
excited
about
that.
I
know
it's
not
a
part
of
the
hra
funding,
but
I
wanted
to
share
and
talk
about
it
and
you'll
probably
be
hearing
more
about
that
going
forward.
I
We
are
part
of
trusted
messengers
in
hennepin
county,
I'm
not
sure
if
you're
familiar
with
trusted
messengers,
but
it's
basically
a
group
of
several
organizations
that
work
with
hennepin
county
to
kind
of
be
ready
if
covet
resurges
we're
going
to
all
kind
of
network
together
and
coordinate
our
responses,
so
we're
ready
in
case
it.
It
comes
back
in
the
fall
or
there's
a
resurgence
of
it,
but
our
main
thing
is
to
keep
people
safe.
I
You
know,
and,
and
at
home
was
the
safest
place
to
be
that's
where
most
people
want
to
remain
is
in
their
home.
They
want
to
age
in
place
for
as
long
as
they
can
and
we're
just
one
partner
in
helping
people.
Do
that
so
again,
thank
you
for
your
partnership
and
support
over
these
many
years.
I'd
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions
that
you
might
have.
A
C
C
I
In
the
past,
we've
put
information
like
in
the
bloomington
briefing,
which
goes
out
to
a
much
larger
audience,
and
we
try
to
do
events
we're
going
to
be
attending
the
pride
event
here
in
a
couple
of
weeks.
There's
an
older
adult
job,
fair.
Interestingly
enough,
some
of
those
folks
may
want
to
work
or
may
need
services,
I
don't
know,
but
we
try
to
attend
some
different
events
in
the
community.
I
I
You
know
if
someone
comes
to
their
attention
or
someone's
calling
to
look
for
help,
but
we
try
to
do
outreach
events.
We're
kind
of
looking
forward
to
doing
more
back
in
person,
outreach
events
now
that
the
pandemic
has
subsided.
So
that's
always
been.
Our
goal
is
to
try
to
do
different
things,
but
you're
right,
you
know
outside
of
creekside,
so.
I
A
G
I
A
G
G
G
So
there
are
a
couple
of
things
I
do
have
some
information
from
coordinating
with
our
community
outreach
and
engagement,
division
liaison
about
the
appointment
process,
the
application
process
and
appointment
process
as
well
as
there
is
an
arrest.
There
is
a
resolution
attached
to
the
agenda
item,
because
this
body
does
need
to
formally
accept
the
legislation
before
the
city
council
accepts
the
legislation
of
adding
to
commissioners
to
increase
the
board
from
five
to
seven
members.
G
G
So
that
would
be
september
5th
and
then
september.
12Th
begin
promotion
and
open
the
applications
up
to
the
public.
And
doing
so.
We
would
include
key
messages
provided
by
the
hra
board
to
highlight
the
current
priorities
or
populations
that
we
are
encouraging
to
apply
right.
I'm
so
really
bringing
you
in
and
using
the
board
to
fully
inform
to
grow
the
board
and
how
we
go
through
the
appointment
process.
G
And
so
then
we
would
look
at
the
week
of
october
31st
packets,
getting
the
packets
to
the
interview
committee
and
then
the
liaison
would
coordinate
with
the
applicants
for
interviews
because
we
would
hold
interviews
and
then
the
week
of
the
31st
through
to
the
week
of
november
7th.
We
would
have
interviews.
G
We
would
coordinate
and
have
interviews,
I'm
sorry
from
31st
through
the
14th
of
november,
so
two
weeks
total
to
schedule
the
interviews
and
hold
the
interviews
with
our
staff
liaison,
which
would
give
us
enough
time
to
have
the
interviews
have
discussion
and
provide
a
provide.
A
memo
to
the
mayor,
because
the
mayor
does
a
point
with
the
approval
of
the
city
council.
G
So
some
of
the
things
that
we
looked
at
are
being
able
to
have
the
interviews,
be
15
20
minutes
in
duration,
taking
place
virtually
and
then
offering
the
interviews
on
a
weekday
evening
and
a
saturday
to
try
and
make
sure
we're
meeting.
Not
only
our
commissioners
needs
but
also
the
applicants
as
we're
going
through
this
process.
G
A
D
E
You,
madam
chair,
I
would
just
say
that
I
having
gone
through
the
interview
process
with
our
board
and
commissions
this
past
year.
It
I
mean
it
was
involved.
It
was
not
a
small
amount
of
time,
but
I
think
it
resulted
in.
It
definitely
resulted
in
a
much
better
product
in
terms
of
our
our
appointees
and
and
the
information
that
the
council
had
available
to
it.
So
I
think
we're
in
the
right
direction.
C
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
The
only
thing
I
would
like
to
add-
and
this
is
going
forward
after
this
process
is-
and
I
understand
that's-
this-
is
for
this
process,
but
just
wanted
to
get
it
out.
There
is
maybe
doing
some
sort
of
mentorship
with
a
current
commissioner
into
it
with
a
new
commissioner
being
one
of
the
newer
commissioners
within
the
last
couple
years.
C
I
think
I
was
blessed
enough
to
have
john
olson,
like
kind
of
take
me
under
his
wing
and
guide
me,
and
I
think
that
that's
really
important,
and
I
think
that
if
we
open
that
up
so
that
they
have
like
a
direct
person,
they
feel
that
they
can
contact
or
whatever,
with
questions
concerns.
I
think,
if
you
have
one
person
it
doesn't
violate
any
you
know
any
issues
legalities,
but
it
just
kind
of
allows
them
to
ask
questions,
maybe
privately,
instead
of
having
to
do
it
publicly
during
the
learning
curve.
C
So
just
something
I
want
to
throw
out
there,
but
I
think
this
process
is
wonderful.
Thank
you
very
much
for
giving
us
a
complete,
detailed
outline
and
schedule
that
we
can
put
on
our
calendars
and
we
know
what's
going
to
happen
and
we
know
what's
going
to
go
forward,
and
we
have
plenty
of
time
then
to
get
someone
and
get
new
people
in
here
in
january.
So
thank
you
for
that.
Hard
work.
G
Yes,
thank
you,
commissioner
huhim.
I
just
want
to
add
that
I
do
think
that's
a
great
idea
that
I
will
take
back
to
our
community
outreach
and
engagement
division
and
just
to
add,
when
I
started,
I
was
linked
with
a
peer
mentor,
so
even
in
the
city,
it's
already
there
for
staff
and
so
just
carrying
that
forward.
As
long
as
we're
clear
about
the
rules
and
quorum
and
different
things
like
that,
I
think
that's
something
that
our
community
outreach
and
engagement
division
would
be
open
to
receiving
that
feedback.
A
E
A
Is
there
a
second
second
all
right?
I'm
sorry
was
it,
commissioner
coulter?
Okay.
I
was
moved
by
commissioner
coulter
with
the
second
by
commissioner
who
to
approve
the
resolution
of
proving
laws
of
minnesota
2022
chapter
60
sections,
1
and
2..
Is
there
any
discussion
hearing
none
I'll
now
have
the
vote,
all
those
in
favor
signify.
By
saying
I,
I
opposed
the
motion
passes
five
to
zero.
A
G
The
only
reason
that
she
is
not
here
is
because
they
do
also
have
a
board
meeting
this
evening
at
the
same
exact
time
so
in
providing
the
update
that
was
provided
to
me.
West
hennepin,
affordable
housing,
land
trust,
2021
activities
in
bloomington,
so
better
known
as
walt,
was
able
to
acquire
rehab
and
sell
three
properties
in
bloomington
in
2021,
utilizing
225
000
of
city
of
bloomington
funding,
75
000
was
from
2019
award
and
150
000
was
from
the
2020
award.
G
That's
the
initial
investment
of
two
hundred
and
twenty
five
thousand
dollars
brought
in
to
bloomington
one
million
one
hundred
sixty
one
thousand
nine
hundred
ten
dollars.
So
all
three
homes
were
estate
homes.
So
this
means
the
sellers.
Welcome
the
opportunity
to
sell
to
the
land
trust
program
and
see
their
homes
rehabbed
for
the
benefit
of
a
hard-working
family.
G
The
homes
needed
significant
rehab.
So
this
included
windows,
siding
roof
insulation,
hvac,
lead,
removal,
radon
and
etc
needs
so
walt
performs
an
energy
audit,
a
housing
quality
standards,
review
and
lead-based
paint
study
to
guide
them
on
rehab
needs
per
their
funding.
They
must
address
health
safety
and
energy
efficiency
issues.
That
is
a
part
of
the
cdbg
requirements
and
it
may
be
a
part
of
other
funding
requirements
as
well,
but
at
least
it's
a
part
of
cdbg.
G
They
utilize
the
energy
audit
to
determine
the
hers
rating.
So
this
is
the
environment
her.
I
forget
the
home
environment.
I
forget
the
actual
I'm
so
used
to
talking
in
acronyms,
but
it
is
the
environment
rating,
the
rating
which
states
how
energy
efficient
a
home
is
100,
being
the
standard
of
a
new
home.
So
the
average
rating
on
these
homes
prior
to
rehab
was
126..
G
A
G
Thank
you,
so
I
had
quite
a
few
updates
and
they
didn't
call
for
their
own
individual
agenda
items,
but
I
wanted
to
give
you
information
on
things
that
are
happening,
that
you
have
involvement
in,
so
the
first
one
is
600
west
93rd.
This
is
the
state
bond
request.
As
you'll
recall,
this
is
for
a
senior
affordable
housing
complex
and
they
just
went
to
city
council
on
july
18th
as
a
amending
the
resolution
for
preliminary
approval
to
the
issuance
of
the
conduit
revenue
obligation
bond.
G
So
this
is
low-income
housing
tax
credit
that
they
are
applying
for
and
because
it's
with
the
state,
it
is
the
city
council's
role
to
approve
for
the
application
that
they
will
bond.
So
this
was
just
amending
it.
They
actually
needed
to
increase
the
amount
by
a
little
bit
that
they
are
applying
for,
and
the
city
council
voted
in
favor,
so
they
adopted
the
resolution
and
that
application
has
been
submitted.
G
So
we
are
just
waiting
to
hear
if
they've
been
approved
for
the
project
to
move
forward
with
low-income
housing,
tax
credits,
8200,
humboldt
avenue
south
had
a
groundbreaking
event
on
july
14th.
As
you
recall,
this
is
an
office
building
that
is
being
removed
for
an
affordable
housing
development
that
will
include
50
percent
area
meeting
income
units
that
you
did
review
and
approve
this
project.
Previously,
I
drove
by
this
morning
the
building
was
still
there,
but
I
know
it's
coming
down
soon:
80
12
old
cedar
redevelopment.
G
As
you
can
recall,
this
was
actually
a
really
a
great
development
that
includes
30
percent
area
median
income
units.
There
is
one
three
bedroom,
thirty
percent
unit
in
that
development.
They
are
calling
this
cadence
and
cadence
is
the
construction
was
substantially
completed
as
of
july
7
2022
from
their
investor
update
report.
G
I
do
want
to
add
that
this
is
really
a
good
project
that
we
ended
up,
providing
updates
and
modifications
to
the
opportunity,
housing
ordinance
to
allow
for
a
higher
density,
bonus
and
other
parking.
Excuse
me
parking
incentives
that
allowed
for
this
property
to
be
able
to
be
built
and
provide
those
30
units
that
it
is
providing.
G
I
have
it
is
in
the
leasing
process
with
move-ins
scheduled
also
according
to
their
update,
and
I
have
reached
out
to
the
developer
just
to
see
about
us
having
some
type
of
tour
with
the
board
and
staff
to
view
that.
So
I
will
let
you
know
when
I
hear
back
in
terms
of
our
housing
choice
voucher
program,
so
we
have
an
annual
administrative
plan.
G
We
call
it
the
administrative
plan
and
agency
plan
there's
those
things
have
to
be
done
on
an
annual
basis,
and
so
right
now
we
have
updated
the
plan
just
to
make
sure
it
includes,
like
our
hud
vash
and
our
fyi
vouchers
and
our
waiting
list
requirements,
and
it
is
open
for
public
comment
period.
Currently
it's
on
our
web
page,
it
is
also
in
the
hra
office
and
it
can
be
viewed
by
anyone
monday
through
friday,
8
a.m
to
4
30
p.m.
G
We
also
sent
letters
for
our
resident
advisory
board,
so
this
is
actually
a
requirement
that
we
have
where
we
send
the
letters
to
all
of
our
participants
asking
them
if
they
are
interested
in
participating
in
the
resident
advisory
board.
For
this
program,
we
have
provided
information
for
them
to
respond
either
by
mail
or
by
email,
and
we
do
have
a
closing
deadline
date
for
that
to
get
the
participants
according
to
our
regulations.
G
G
That
would
include
options
for
affordable
home
ownership
opportunities,
and
at
this
point
it
is
in
the
ordinance
in
the
charter
for
the
city
that
we
either
do
a
open
bid
process
or
the
city
council
by
majority
at
least
five
have
to
vote
for
an
alternative
process
and
since
we're
looking
at
different
ways
of
encouraging
and
increasing,
affordable
home
ownership
opportunities,
we'll
be
taking
that
forward
to
the
city
council
to
ask
about
that
and
then
our
just
deeds
community
event.
I
actually
have
a
flyer,
but
it
will
be.
G
G
What
just
needs
is
is
that
the
city
of
bloomington
is
a
participant.
As
you
know,
the
hra
did
discharge.
The
racially
restricted
covenant
language
that
was
on
one
of
our
hra
owned
properties,
and
what
it
is
is
that
in
that
coalition,
we
assist
property
owners
with
discharging
discriminatory
covenants
from
their
property
deeds.
G
A
few
facts
is
that
bloomington,
over
500
properties
in
bloomington
have
discriminatory
covenants
on
them.
The
discriminatory
covenants
were
once
used
to
keep
people
of
color
from
buying
houses
and
acknowledging
this
and
other
forms
of
discrimination
helps
build
a
foundation
for
more
inclusive
communities,
and
so
the
purpose
of
this
community
event
is
just
learning
gathering
sharing
in
community,
so
I
will
be
at
that
event
participating.
It
is
open
to
all
of
our
commissioners.
G
D
G
Thank
you
for
that
question,
commissioner
thorson.
So
I
know
that
you
can
visit
the
city
of
bloomington
webpage,
which
also
can
take
you
to
the
map
where
you
can
look
up
your
address
in
particular,
and
I
do
want
to
say
that
the
reason
this
park
was
chosen.
Let
me
back
up
our
planning
manager,
planning,
division
and
our
community
outreach
and
engagement
division
are
leading
this.
This
is
not
the
hra
leading
this,
so
I
have
to
make
sure
I'm
clear
on
that.
They
are
leading
this.
G
They
are
a
part
of
the
just
deeds
coalition
as
representing
as
the
city
of
bloomington,
but
one
of
the
really
neat
things
that
is
available
on
our
web
page
is
a
map
where
you
can
put
your
address
in
and
see
if
there
is
a
racially
restricted
covenant
or
restrictive
covenant
on
your
property,
but
this
park
was
chosen
because
it's
surrounded
by
properties
that
do
have
restricted
covenants
on
them.
Currently.
A
C
E
G
G
Thank
you,
sorry
about
that
before
we
adjourn,
I
just
want
to
remind
that.
Our
next
meeting
is
not
until
the
end
of
august,
the
fourth
tuesday
in
august,
because
august
9th,
the
second
tuesday
in
august,
where
we
would
normally
have
a
meeting,
is
primary
election.
So
we
do
want
everybody
to
participate
and
pay
attention
and
vote
in
the
primary
election,
but
we
will
not
be
having
any
meetings
for
state
law.
You
cannot
have
any
public
meetings
on
those
evenings,
so
our
next
meeting
won't
be
until
the
end
of
august.
