Okay
well
good
afternoon,
Madam
mayor
members
of
the
council,
Sean
Keithley
economic
development
director
for
the
city
of
Boise
here
in
the
mayor's
office,
and
here
with
Doug
Woodruff
development
director
for
the
capital
city,
Development
Corporation,
and
it's
our
privilege
to
be
here
today
to
provide
an
update
on
urban
renewal
districts
in
the
city
of
Boise
and
some
of
the
good
work
that
we've
been
doing
together.
D
So
it's
it's
fortunate
that
we
have
a
strong
relationship
with
our
Urban
rural
agency
partner
and
CCDC
and
I'd,
say,
particularly
in
the
past
three
years
or
so
have
worked,
especially
diligently
to
ensure
strong
alignment
among
our
respective
senior
leadership
and
staff
on
some
of
our
key
investment
priorities
like
housing,
Mobility,
Economic,
Development,
arts
and
culture,
and
preservation
working
together.
Our
organizations
have
helped
to
plan
and
Implement
intentional
lasting
developments
in
the
city
of
Boise
many
through
Partnerships.
D
So
today,
we'd
like
to
provide
an
update
on
how
CCDC
and
the
City
of
Boise
are
together
advancing
some
of
the
shared
priorities,
as
well
as
the
status
of
the
urban
renewal
districts
themselves
and
an
overview
of
some
key
recent
projects
and
Partnerships.
D
E
Well,
good
afternoon,
mayor
and
council
members
I
appreciate
the
warm
welcome
Sean,
and
it
really
is
a
pleasure
to
be
before
you
today
to
to
share
an
update
about
the
good
things
that
are
happening
between
our
two
organizations.
E
Sean's
intro
covered
a
lot
of
the
things
I
was
going
to
mention.
That's
just
how
synced
up
we
are
I,
suppose
so,
I'll
just
jump
right
into
it.
E
The
first
thing
I
wanted
to
review
with
you
is,
is
to
put
on
the
screen
the
city
priority
areas
in
ccdc's
key
strategies
next
to
one
another
and
just
point
out
how
many
of
these
items
overlap
and
and
where,
where
we
are
moving
our
missions
forward
together,
you
know
the
first
safe
and
healthy
City
for
everyone.
One
example
of
this
is
fire
station
number
five.
This
is
an
important
priority
in
this
area,
and
CCDC
is
working
to
assist
financially
with
the
development
of
that
project,
a
home
for
everyone.
E
We'll
talk
about
that
throughout
today's
presentation.
That's
a
high
priority
and
there's
many
examples
through
the
conversation
today
that
will
show
how
CCDC
is
working
to
support
the
city's
efforts,
as
well
as
Advance
some
some
projects
through
our
own
efforts,
movement
for
everyone.
That's
really
Mobility
right!
That's
a
key
strategy
of
the
agency
and
and
we'll
point
out
some
some
projects,
particularly
the
State
Street
District
itself.
I
mean
that's
one
of
the
main
objectives
of
standing
up.
That
District
was
to
advance
Mobility
efforts
as
the
State
Street
corridor.
E
Redevelops
a
clean
City
for
everyone,
I
I
would
just
point
to
the
infrastructure
work,
we're
doing
with
civil
cells
and
storm
water
and
that
there
are
many
things
we're
doing
in
streetscape
projects
to
to
help
with
this
priority
area
and
even
on
an
economic
development
front.
One
example
would
be
our
partnership
with
Asic,
which
is
you
know,
a
clean
and
sustainable
manufacturing
company
that
has
started
up
operations
in
the
Gateway
East
District,
and
that
rolls
right
into
opportunities
for
everyone,
and
that's.
E
Something
that
we're
working
on
a
Gateway
East
as
well
as
arts
and
culture
right,
that's
an
inclusive
part
of
making
sure
everyone
in
our
community
is
engaged
and
there's
numerous
Partnerships
with
the
arts
and
history
Department
too,
that
ccdc's
participating
in
and
engaging
for
everyone.
You
know
this
is
part
of
today's
conversations,
as
well
as
the
the
agency's
website
and
making
sure
that
we're
putting
our
work
out
publicly
available,
24,
7.
and
even
on
a
project
specific
basis.
E
E
So
before
getting
into
a
district
by
District
overview
or
highlight
of
the
these
efforts,
I
just
want
to
take
a
moment
to
talk
about
two
things:
one
is
leveraging
public
dollars
to
catalyze
private
investment
and
then
I'll
get
on
to
our
Capital
Improvement
plan.
E
The
agency:
does
this
leverages
public
dollars
to
achieve
private
investment
through
our
participation
program
was
initially
set
up
in
2013,
and
this
policy
guides
how
we
participate
with
the
private
sector
on
public
infrastructure
Investments
to
date,
we've
leveraged
about
70
million
dollars
of
participation
resulting
in
1.9
billion
dollars
of
private
investment.
So
this
is
an
important
part
of
how
the
agency
advances
its
Mission
and
and
reinvesting
in
its
urban
renewal
districts
and
completing
those
plans.
E
Recently,
last
summer
in
2022,
we
made
a
policy
update,
and
this
was
to
bring
the
policy
up
to
alignment
with
the
current
priorities
of
the
city.
Some
notable
changes
in
that
policy
update
included,
increasing
assistance
for
affordable
housing.
We
also
work
closely
with
Housing
Community
Development
Department,
understanding
what
their
objectives
are
and
and
its
compliance
and
monitoring,
regimen
and
incorporating
that
into
our
policy,
so
that
we're
in
lockstep.
E
So
when
a
development's
coming
forward
to
bring
affordable
or
Workforce
housing
to
the
to
the
community,
where
we
can
sit
down
and
be
playing
from
the
same
sheet
of
music
and
and
move
forward
in
a
Cooperative
way,
and
additionally,
there's
been
some
adjustments
to
increase
the
the
quality
results
that
we
get
out
of
development
projects.
E
So
moving
on
to
our
five-year
Capital
Improvement
plan,
this
is
available
on
the
home
screen
of
the
agency's
website
and-
and
this
document
here
is-
is
something
that
we
put
out
annually
work
closely
with
Sean
and
many
other
departments
and
in
leading
that
effort.
We'll
begin
this
year's
update
here
and
probably
the
next
30
to
45
days
and
we've
kicked
that
off
with
a
strategic
session
with
the
agency
board,
as
well
as
City
leadership,
to
understand
what
the
highest
priorities
are:
understanding
that
high
level
Vision
we
go
back
review.
E
I
might
move
right
through
this.
This
is
the
the
primary
purpose
of
doing
this.
Five-Year
Plan
is
really
you
know
to
catalyze
that
private
investment
as
I
touched
on
it,
is
really
important
in
accomplishing
our
long-term
strategies.
As
you
know,
many
of
the
projects
that
we're
involved
with
you
on
do
take
multiple
years.
So
having
that
five-year
plan
in
place
is
a
way
to
ensure
that
we
are
tracking
it
appropriately
and
programming
resources
adequately.
E
So
I
think
this
this
table
here
is
a
is
a
good
visual
snapshot
of
where
the
agency's
at
and
it's
current
current
urban
renewal
districts.
So
let's
take
a
minute
to
kind
of
talk
through
this
and
offer
a
few
remarks
about
how
this
this
all
works
out.
So
CCDC
currently
operates
six
urban
renewal
districts.
E
Those
are
shown
by
the
the
colored
lines
on
the
screen.
The
oldest
district
is
the
River
Myrtle
or
Boise
District
I'll
refer
to
it
as
the
River
Myrtle
District.
It
was
originally
formed
in
1996
and
is
set
to
terminate
at
the
end
of
fiscal
year
2025..
So
there's
about
two
and
a
half
years
remaining
in
this
District
and
we
have
a
robust
set
of
projects
that
we
are
carrying
out
to
complete
this
District.
E
Similarly,
is
the
West
Side
District,
which
is
Will
terminate
the
year
after
an
FY
26,
so
we
have
about
three
and
a
half
years
remaining
in
that
district
and
a
list
of
projects.
We'll
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
later
underway
to
to
see
that,
through
on
the
30th,
Street
District
was
stood
up
in
2013
2014,
and
it's
currently
about
halfway
through
its
lifespan.
I'll
share
more
about
the
work
underway
in
that
District.
But
we
do
have
some
time
and
for
longer
term
projects
to
to
be
undertaken.
E
In
2019
with,
with
the
help
of
the
city,
we
stood
up
two
districts,
the
shoreline
District,
which
is
downtown
between
River
Street
and
and
the
Boise
River,
as
well
as
the
Gateway
East
District,
which
is
out
between
Interstate
84
and
the
airport.
E
These
two
districts
have
a
20-year
lifespan
and
there
have
been
active
for
four
years
and
and
all
both
have
a
fair
amount
of
activity
happening
within
them,
and
then
the
agency's
newest
district
is
the
State
Street
District,
which
we
worked
closely
with
you
and
and
many
other
agencies,
achd
and
brt,
most
notably
to
stand
up
this
District,
which
really
sets
forth
a
Transit
oriented
development
and
20-year
plan
to
focus
public
investment
in
transit
infrastructure,
as
well
as
shaping
the
land
use
that
will
ultimately
serve
and
be
serviced
by
that
Transportation
infrastructure.
E
So
that's
where
we
currently
are
with
active
districts.
We.
E
I
guess
I'd
like
to
point
out
too
that
the.
E
The
state
statute
limits
the
ability
for
urban
renewal
districts
to
be
no
more
than
10
percent
of
a
city's
assessed.
Values
where
we
currently
are
at
with
these
sixth
district
is
about
three
percent
of
the
assessed
value,
so
there
is
opportunity
available
if,
if
that
was
something
that
the
city
deemed
was
appropriate
to
pursue,
it
takes
about
two
years
to
formally
go
through
the
formation
process.
There's
multiple
steps
that
are
very
important,
starting
with
determining
eligibility
and
then
looking
at
the
financial
feasibility.
E
So
this
is
something
that
that
is
a
possibility,
but
it
at
this
point,
CCDC,
isn't
actively
looking
at
forming
any
districts
at
this
time
and
then
I'll
also
mention
here.
The
last
bar
on
on
the
table
is
known
as
parkboy.
The
agency
owns
and
operates
six
public
parking
garages
in
the
downtown
area,
and
there
are
revenues
generated
from
from
those
parking
garages.
E
The
agency
does
have
a
plan
to
reinvest
those
revenues
into
Economic,
Development
and
Mobility
initiatives.
Those
are
listed
here
on
the
screen,
one
of
which
is
the
block
68
mobility
and
parking
structure.
This
is
a
shared
new
parking
garage,
that's
under
development.
E
We
also
have
money
programmed
for
transformative
assistance
in
the
shoreline
District.
This
is
a
way
for
us
to
help
catalyze
and
and
Advance
public
investment
in
the
shoreline
district
and
then,
as
far
as
Mobility
initiatives,
we're
participating
in
citigo
building
more
bike,
boys
secured
storage
facilities,
as
well
as
partnering,
with
VRT
on
Rider
amenities
and
system
improvements
within
our
districts
and
then
making
some
of
these
available.
Some
of
these
revenues
available
for
local
match
grants
for
one
being
the
raised
Grant
and
the
State
Street
district,
for
example.
E
So,
moving
on
to
the
River
Myrtle
District
I'll
just
take
a
few
minutes
to
talk
about
the
primary
strategy
in
each
one
of
these
districts
and
highlight
a
couple
of
the
projects
that
are
working
to
advance
these
in
the
River
Myrtle
district
and
the
West
Side
District.
Frankly,
what
we're
really
focusing
on
is
increasing
the
number
of
downtown
residents
with
housing
opportunities
at
all
levels.
E
We're
doing
this
to
our
participation
program,
as
primarily,
that's
that's
how
we're
we're
moving
that
forward,
we're
also
working
to
recruit
hotels
and
Retail
and
other
services
to
attract
visitors
and
conferences
and
employers.
This
is
a
big
part
of
Economic,
Development
and
and
part
of
what
makes
our
downtown,
active
and
and
really
a
wonderful
place
to
be
we're
also
improving
streets
to
serve
our
local
Commerce
and
create
the
welcoming
pedestrian
environment
that
we
have
it's
it's
already
in
pretty
good
shape
from
the
Decades
of
work.
E
You
know
this
is
important
to
have
green
space
and
open
space
in
our
downtown,
and
it's
also
important
to
link
that
to
our
surrounding
open
spaces
and
we've
got
projects
underway
to
help
the
city
accomplish
that
and
through
all
of
this,
we're
trying
to
reduce
Reliance
on
Surface
parking
lots
through
Mobility
initiatives
and
options,
as
well
as
sustainable
development
and
increase
connectivity,
and
examples
of
that
would
be
what's
happening
on
Grove
Street
between
third
and
16th
Street.
E
E
E
Moving
on
to
West
Side
District.
Frankly,
the
the
primary
strategies
here
are
the
same
as
they
are
in
River
Myrtle
District.
These
are
both
downtown
districts
about
the
same
spot
in
their
life
cycle
and
the
context
in
which
we're
working
within
is
is
the
same.
So
we
really
do
view
this.
E
These
two
districts
is
advancing
the
same
sort
of
priorities
and
strategies.
I
will
take
a
minute
to
expand
a
little
bit
more
on
on
what
we're
doing
in
housing.
This
is
the
Martha
Apartments
over
on
17th
in
Idaho
18th
in
Idaho
they're
now
pre-leasing.
This
is
a
an
agency
AC
acquired
property
two
years
ago
and
through
our
disposition
process,
partnered
up
to
create
this
48
unit,
Workforce
housing
project,
the
other
project
to
bring
up
is
the
block
68
catalytic
Redevelopment.
E
This
project
will
deliver
225
units
that
are
attainable
to
folks
looking
for
Workforce
housing
as
well
as
an
additional
300
or
so
units
and.
E
Which
would
be
a
tower
above
a
shared
use,
public
parking
garage,
this,
this
public
parking
garage
will
have
numerous
Condominiums,
some
for
the
private
parking,
some
for
the
adjacent
YMCA
development,
as
well
as
some
for
public
use
by
creating
a
shared
use.
Garage,
it
increases.
The
efficiency,
reduces
the
amount
of
infrastructure
that
has
to
go
into
it,
and
we
think
that
this
will
also
catalyze
further
reinvestment
on
the
surrounding
parking
lots
in
later
years.
E
E
It's
it's
going
to
be
worth
it.
This
is
going
to
result
in
a
connection
of
our
Foothills
to
our
River,
and
our
downtown
will
have
a
north-south
bicycle
Corridor
that
will.
E
Abilities-
it's
not
just
bike
Lanes
going
in
this
is
replacing
underground,
Canal
bridges
that
are
needing
to
be
done
and
part
partnering
with
achd
as
well
on
getting
the
pavement
maintenance
taken
care
of.
So
this
is
a
really
great
example
of
how
we
partner
with
the
city
and
other
agencies,
to
consolidate
construction
and
like
let's
dig
once,
let's
get
it
done
as
quickly
and
efficiently
as
we
can
and
minimize
disruption
to
to
local
Commerce.
E
So
the
30th
Street
District
is
over
in
the
West
End
of
downtown.
E
What
we're
really
looking
to
advance
in
this
area
is
creating
an
authentic
sense
of
place.
The
Boise
River
is
part
of
this,
and
much
of
the
underutilized
parcels
are
adjacent
to
the
Boise
River.
So
making
those
connections
is
a
big
focus
of
Redevelopment
in
this
area.
Expanding
Workforce
housing
options
is
important.
This
is
next
to
our
Central
business
district
and
also
adjacent
to
College
of
Western
Idaho's
property,
which
we
expect
to
redevelop
at
some
point.
E
Investing
in
improving
the
Aging
infrastructure
in
this
area
is
is
also
a
key
strategy
to
kick-starting
private
investment
in
this
area.
A
great
example
of
that
is
the
West
End
water
renewal.
E
This
recent
partnership
with
City's
public
works
department
will
result
in
the
construction
of
a
new
area
lift
station,
as
well
as
some
Force
Mains
and
other
main
lines
that
will
provide
enough
capacity
to
serve
2
000
housing
units
in
this
area
through
these
four
Partnerships
that
CCDC
is,
is
participating
in
it'll
bring
online
about
700
units
in
the
next
couple
of
years.
E
Moving
over
to
the
Shoreline
District,
with
the
limited
resources
available,
we
are
really
leveraging
the
agency's
participation
program,
which
offers
remember
Revenue
reimbursement
based
on
the
increment
that
projects
generate.
This
is
our
ability
to
participate
even
before
we
have
resources
available.
One
example
of
this
is
the
capital
student
housing
project.
That's
broken
ground
on
Ann
Morrison
Drive.
E
We're
also
leveraging
the
parkboy
system
here
by
programming,
a
funds
to
catalyze
transformative
investment
in
this
area,
so
that's
available
in
in
coming
years,
and
and
we're
having
early
coordination
conversations
with
Property
Owners
throughout
the
district
to
to
utilize
this
funding
opportunity.
E
Another
important
part
of
the
shoreline
district
and
State
Street
District
frankly
was
assisting
the
city
with
the
design
parameters
with
public
improvements.
This
is
this
is
practically
administered
through
the
downtown
streetscape
standards
manual.
The
manual
does
not
include
Shoreline
District,
nor
does
it
include
State,
Street
District,
so
we're
beginning
a
process
in
February
to
update
that
manual
to
include
it.
Having
those
those
standards
employed
will
really
shape
and
guide.
The
public
improvements
help
the
private
investment
understand
what
costs
are
expected
of
them
and
and
also
help
the
community
accomplish.
E
The
the
type
of
public
improvements
they
want
to
see
so
moving
over
to
the
Gateway
East
District,
so
we're
out
of
downtown
now
and
we're
over
between
I-84
and
the
airport.
This
District
really
is
focused
on
diversifying
Boise's
economy
with
industrial
and
development
that
can
help
local
businesses
expand
and
attract
new
businesses.
We
have
gosh
I,
don't
remember
off
the
top
of
my
head
six
or
seven
participation
program
projects
underway
here
with
the
Boyer
company
on
the
city's
land
lease
as
well
as
Asic
company
and
Red
River.
E
Logistics
are
just
a
few
out
there
that
are
bringing
forward
the
space
to
to
house
these
these
businesses
and,
in
effect
creating
the
quality
jobs
that
that
that
Boise
is
needing.
E
F
E
Eiserman
right
away
as
one
example
of
what's
important
to
do
in
managing
change
and
and
accomplishing
the
objectives
of
the
district.
E
So,
as
I
mentioned,
State
Street's,
the
newest
District,
that
the
agency
is
is
operating,
our
primary
strategies
are
out.
There
really
are
increasing
the
use
of
the
Best
in
Class
State
Street
transit
system
by
participating
in
transit,
oriented
development,
Partnerships,
the
brt
Partnerships,
with
the
city
and
Partnerships
with
achd
and
the
private
sector.
How
are
we
going
to
do
this?
E
Ccdc's
focus
is
on
helping
fund
the
mobility
infrastructure,
that's
needed
as
as
well
as
liaisoning
with
the
private
development
to
help
them
understand
what
the
bigger
purpose
is
here
and
accomplishing
that,
as
I
mentioned,
the
streetscape
standards
are
really
important
out.
There
we're
seeing
a
number
of
developments
underway
that
are
looking
to
construct
the
multi-use
pathway,
but
it's
not
clear
yet
on
what
that
overall
plan
is
so
we're.
E
E
We
collaborated
with
the
mayor's
office,
hcd
Public,
Works
and
PDS
on
this
and
is
structured
similar
to
the
downtown
District's
policy,
but
we
calibrated
it
to
make
sure
that
the
incentives
offered
through
the
program
help
encourage
and
incent
transitory
and
development.
E
We
looked
at
Bland
uses
that
are
planned
out
there,
as
well
as
the
transportation
plans
and
made
sure
this
policy
is
really
structured
around
helping
the
city
advance
advance
its
plans,
so
the
emphasis
really
is
on
Mobility
infrastructure
and
we're
prioritizing
the
dollars
that
CCDC
can
participate
in
with
helping
projects
that
Advance
Transit
and
housing
foreign.
E
Centers
that
are
served
by
this
Transit
System
and
then
another
example
is,
is
what
we'll
see
a
lot
of
which
is
incremental
infill
development.
This
is
the
state
and
Arthur
project
that
you
all
are
very
familiar
with.
This
is
a
city
hcd
project
that
will
be
delivering
100,
102,
affordable
units
to
this
area
and,
through
our
policy
update,
we've
been
able
to
offer
additional
assistance
to
help
with
the
the
public
infrastructure
associated
with
with
this
project
foreign.
E
So
that's
the
that's.
The
long
run
through
what
we're
up
to
at
CCDC
genuinely
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
come
share
this
with
you
and
looking
forward
to
a
conversation
or
discussion
on
any
questions
you
might
have.
So
with
that
I'll
stand
for
questions.
A
All
this
say,
thank
you,
Doug.
We
do
need
to
be
mindful
of
time,
but
I
do
want
to
thank
you,
your
team
and
the
director
of
the
agency
for
the
partnership
and
what
you've
delineated
is.
So
often
we
talk
about
this
in
terms
of
plans
and
Maps,
but
really
these
are
investments
that
create
more
Investments,
That
Make
housing
possible,
getting
to
work
possible
work
possible
and
really
appreciate
the
partnership
that
we've
established
to
meet
the
goals
that
we
share.
G
I
did
have
a
quick
question,
so
when
you
go
through
the
planning
process
with
these
different
districts,
let's
say
it's
like
the
30th
Street
one.
You
work
with
the
different
stakeholders.
They
Identify
some
of
the
priority
projects
in
the
neighborhood
and
that
sort
of
sort
of
put
into
the
plan
is
there:
are
there
check-ins
to
engage
in
different
levels
of
the
priority
projects,
or
is
it
really
just
determined
on
this?
G
E
Yeah
mayor
council,
member
Halliburton,
I
I
see
where
you're
going
with
it
and
yeah
it's
through
our
five-year
planning
process.
We
are
checking
in
with
all
of
our
public
and
private
Partners
to
understand
what
their
current
priorities
are.
So
an
urban
renewal
district
has
a
20-year
lifespan,
we're
fortunate
to
have
the
flexibility
to
partner
when
the
private
investment
is
happening
to
advance
the
public
infrastructure,
so
it
isn't
one
or
the
other.
E
We
we
do
strive
to
Advance
the
community's
desires
and
seeing
those
public
improvements
made,
but
we
also
recognize
that
we
can
employ
it
through
those
opportunities,
and
so
us,
advancing
capital
projects,
is
us
trying
to
deliver
the
community's
priorities
and
then
through
the
participation
program,
as
the
other
Avenue
for
us
to
to
take
take
advantage
of
the
opportunities
when
they
present
themselves.
Thank
you.
Yeah.
F
E
That's
a
great
question:
I
will
follow
up
with
the
total
numbers
on
on
the
unit
count,
because
that
yeah
I
think
it
could
be
answered
in
a
number
of
different
ways.
So
we'll
follow
up
with
you
on
on
that
information.
E
Ccdc's
participation
program
does
look
to
advance
Workforce
housing,
that's
priced
at
a
level
between
80
and
120
Ami.
E
We
also
through
this
recent
policy
update
included
more
assistance
for
projects
that
are
advancing
60
Ami
housing
as
well.
So
we
we
do
view
ccdc's
Lane
in
solving
the
the
spectrum
of
housing
to
be
that
that
Workforce
segment,
but
we
also
recognize
that
more
deeply
affordable
projects
like
New,
Path,
New,
Path,
2.0
or
Dare
Manor
need
the
assistance
as
well.
So
we
have
the
ability
to
assist
in
those
projects
when
it's
important
to
get
them
moving.
Yeah.
H
Thank
you.
I
will
ask
for
a
follow-up
meeting
for
some
more
detailed
questions,
because
I've
got
a
few,
but
my
the
one
thing
I
do
want
to
put
on
your
radar.
H
It's
recently
come
to
my
attention,
the
last
six
months
or
so
that
tiffia
bonding
can
also
be
used
as
match
for
federal
grants,
especially
for
infrastructure
like
the
raise
Grant.
It
seems
like
the
State
Street
Corridor
is
a
perfect
place
to
investigate
whether
or
not
that
might
be
useful
since
CCDC
has
bonding
Authority
using
it
to
get.
Those
bonds
specifically
could
then
be
fully
used
to
match
Federal
funding.
I
Council
members,
thanks
for
having
me
today,
my
name
is
Kyle
Patterson
I'm,
the
director
of
innovation
and
performance
in
the
mayor's
office
and
I'm
here,
to
provide
a
quick
update
on
the
two
housing
pilot
programs
that
were
launched
this
summer
and
I
will
say:
I'm
really
excited
about
both
of
these
Pilots
because
one
they
both
really
were
based
on
ideas
that
came
directly
from
the
community
and
were
the
product
of
really
extensive
Community
engagement,
which
I
think
is
really
important
and
something
I'm
proud
of,
but
also
because
if
these
Pilots
work
and
we
can't
guarantee
there
they'll
work,
because
that's
why
we're
doing
Pilots.
I
But
if
they
work
they
have
the
potential
to
be
really
impactful
for
a
community.
But
before
I
get
into
the
update
itself.
I
want
to
take
a
step
back
and
talk
a
little
bit
about
my
role,
because,
whenever
I'm
out
in
the
community
and
I
people
ask
me
hey
what
do
you
do?
I
say:
I'm,
the
director
of
innovation
and
performance
every
time
people
say
two
things.
First,
they
say.
I
Oh,
my
gosh,
that's
so
cool
what
a
great
job
and
then
the
second
question
they
ask
is:
what
do
you
actually
do
and
Innovation
and
performance
are
both
pretty
new
functions
for
the
city
of
Boise,
but
they've
been
around
in
local
government
for
20
years?
There's
dozens
of
cities
across
the
country
that
have
offices
of
innovation,
performance
and
really
local
governments
are
facing
increasingly
complex
challenges.
We're
thinking
of
things
like
housing,
affordability,
like
climate
action.
These
are
challenges
for
which
there's
no
Silver
Bullet
right.
There's,
no
one
solution.
I
No
city
has
solved
these.
So
if
we're
going
to
be
successful
on
these
fronts,
we
really
have
to
get
better
about
experimenting
with
new
approaches,
to
problem
solving,
with
empowering
City
staff
to
get
creative
and
come
up
with
new
ideas
with
being
really
open
to
ideas
from
the
community
and
really
just
doing
a
better
job
of
experimenting.
Building
measuring
and
learning.
We
also
frankly
have
to
get
better
at
leveraging
data
to
maximize
our
impact,
and
that's
really
what
my
job
is
about.
I
You
might
say
like
Innovation
and
data
like.
Why
are
those
two
things
together?
Well,
it's
actually
I
think
really
critically
important
that
those
work
work
in
concert
for
for
us
to
be
successful
and
the
housing
Pilots
are
a
perfect
example
of
that
so
I,
the
pilots
I
think,
are
really
Innovative.
It's
a
new
approach
to
housing,
affordability
for
us
and
the
community
and
I
think
in
the
country.
I
It's
pretty
Innovative,
but
we're
being
very
careful
and
intentional
about
matching
that
with
a
very
clear
evaluation
of
the
pilot,
so
that
we
can
use
good
objective
data
to
understand
whether
or
not
it's
working
in
places
where
it's
not
working
are
there
ways
that
we
can
pivot
to
make
it
work
next
time
around
so
really
important
that
those
two
things
work
together
agenda
for
today,
really
quickly
I
want
to
share
sort
of
the
origin
story
of
the
housing
Pilots.
I
How
we
got
to
these
two
pilots,
why
we're
doing
them
talk
a
little
bit
about
what's
happening
now,
where
we
are
currently
with
those
and
then
some
next
steps.
I
So
about
a
year
and
a
half
ago
the
city
participated
in
an
innovation
program
through
Bloomberg
philanthropies
I
can
never
get
that
out.
I'm
proud
that
I
did
it
that
time
and
Harvard
University,
where
there
is
a
group
of
10
City
staff
using
a
human-centered
design
approach
to
address
housing,
affordability
and
human
Center
design
is
really
about
deeply
engaging
the
community
and
the
problem-solving
process
from
the
beginning
to
the
end.
I
Through
that
work,
we
engaged
more
than
200
residents
in
a
really
deep,
meaningful
way.
This
wasn't
just
folks
filling
out
a
survey
right.
It
was
the
city
staff
team,
having
hour
plus
conversations
with
individuals
to
understand
their
perspective
on
housing,
affordability.
It
was
folks
coming
to
three
hour
sessions,
virtually
or
in
city
hall
to
brainstorm
creative,
new
Solutions
with
City
staff.
It
was
folks
working
on
testing
those
ideas.
I
We
also
were
able
to
generate
from
the
community
more
than
500
ideas
about
how
we
could
address
housing,
affordability
in
new
ways
and
there's
two
ideas
that
really
Rose
to
the
top
of
those
500
in
terms
of
ideas.
That
think
we
think
were
the
most
likely
to
be
successful
and
have
an
impact,
but
also
ideas
that
had
a
lot
of
community
interest
wrong
direction.
I
They
they
look
like
a
home,
though
so
they
use
traditional
housing,
construction
materials.
They
have
a
slanted
roof
compared
to
like
an
RV,
that's
like
made
of
fiberglass
or
aluminum
and
has
a
flat
roof,
but
they
aren't
currently
allowed
in
city
limits
unless
you're
in
an
RV
park.
The
idea
we
heard
from
the
community
is
well
by
nature
of
this
being
a
really
small
housing
unit.
Maybe
it's
an
option
for
affordability.
I
What
if
the
city
did
allow
these
in
some
residential
areas?
Could
that
help
us
address
our
housing?
Affordability
issues?
The
second
idea
was
around
accessory
dwelling
units.
These
are
also
known
as
adus
or
in-law
units
or
Casitas,
or
grand
granny,
Flats
I
think
is
one
name
for
them.
These
are
currently
allowed
in
city
limits
up
to
700
square
feet,
so
also
small
housing
units,
but
bigger
than
tiny
homes,
and
what
we
heard
from
a
lot
of
homeowners
when
we
talked
to
them
is
hey.
I,
want
to
be
part
of
the
solution.
I
Around
housing,
affordability,
I
would
love
to
build
an
Adu
in
my
backyard,
but
there's
a
whole
lot
of
barriers
to
me
doing
that
I,
don't
know
how
to
navigate
the
city
permitting
process
I,
don't
know
how
to
get
financing
I,
don't
know
how
to
be
a
landlord
I,
don't
know
how
to
find
a
contractor
who's
willing
to
do
a
project
like
that.
So
the
idea
was
Hey
what
if
we
could
bring
down
many
of
those
barriers?
What
if
we
made
it
as
easy
as
possible
for
folks
to
build
an
Adu
in
exchange?
I
Could
we
then
require
that
they
they
make
it
affordable
for
a
period
of
say,
10
years
so
fast
forward?
Winter
of
last
year,
we
put
out
a
request
for
proposals
to
find
an
organization
that
would
be
willing
to
try
these
Pilots
to
manage
these
two
pilots,
and
we
were
really
happy
to
be
able
to
partner
with
the
winning
bidder,
Elite
housing,
to
manage
them,
and
so
starting
in
May
or
June
of
last
year.
I
We've
sort
of
transferred
management
of
the
pilots
to
them,
but
have
been
trying
to
tried
to
stay
closely
involved.
Some
specific
details
on
the
tiny
home
pilot.
So
our
goal
is
to
place
a
handful
of
tiny
homes
at
different
sites
around
the
city
and
they
would
be
given
temporary
approval
to
be
there
for
12
to
18
months,
we've
asked
Lee
to
try
and
make
those
tiny
homes
as
geographically
dispersed
as
possible.
So
we
don't
want
them
all
to
be
in
one
neighborhood.
I
We
want
to
spread
them
out
around
the
city
so
that
we
can
try
them
in
different
contexts,
but
pilot
participants,
people
who
said
yeah
I'll
host
a
tiny
home.
They
get
some
financial
support
from
leap
because
they
have
to
do
some
site
work
in
their
backyard.
They
have,
to,
like
add
a
gravel
pad.
Add
hook
up
some
from
their
home
for
like
sewer
and
electric
and
water
and
there's
a
cost
to
that
and
they're
only
going
to
get
a
renter
for
12
months,
so
they
may
not
be
able
to
recoup
that
cost.
I
We're
partnering
with
the
Idaho
policy
Institute
out
of
Boise
State,
to
be
a
sort
of
objective,
independent
evaluator
of
the
pilot
to
see
if
it
works
and
we've
been
really
pleased
with
how
things
have
gone
so
far,
56
residents
applied
to
participate
in
this
pilot
program.
So
that's
a
lot
of
folks
who
are
willing
to
say
yeah
I'll
have
a
tiny
home
in
my
backyard.
I
Leap
was
able
to
narrow
that
list
down
to
four
preferred
sites
that
we'll
we're
hoping
will
house
six
tiny
homes
and
they're
working
on
preparing
their
application
for
the
zoning
certificate,
with
the
planning
and
development
services
department
and
submit
that
next
month.
If
that
all
goes
to
plan,
then
we
would
see
tiny
homes
in
the
ground
and
occupied
by
the
end
of
spring.
I
F
I
Yes,
Madam
mayor
council
members,
great
question:
it's
six
tiny
homes
spread
across
four
sites
and
in
the
next
slide,
I
talk
a
little
bit
about
this,
but
we're
really
trying
tiny
homes
in
three
different
scenarios,
which
we'll
explain
why
that's
the
case?
One
scenario
is
a
tiny
home
community,
so
one
of
the
partials
of
land
is
planned
to
have
three
tiny
homes
on
it
to
see.
If
that
sort
of
community
scenario
Works.
I
A
second
scenario
is
one
in
which
a
homeowner
has
space
in
their
backyard
they're
willing
to
put
in
the
pad
and
the
hookups
just
so
that
they
can
rent
out
that
space
to
somebody
who
already
owns
a
tiny
home
and
so
hey,
I
own,
a
tiny
home
sure
I'll
pay,
you
350
bucks
a
month
to
use
your
backyard
and
put
my
tiny
home
there.
I
I
So
these
are
sort
of
the
key
questions
that
I'd
hope
policy.
Institute
is
going
to
try
to
answer
through
the
evaluation.
This
isn't
a
comprehensive
list
of
questions
by
any
means,
but
some
of
the
important
ones
and
so
for
each
of
those
scenarios
we
really
want
to
know
which
of
them
work
and
don't
work.
Do
some
work
better
than
the
others
are
some
sort
of
a
red
flag
that
we
don't
want
to
do
in
the
future.
I
A
second
really
important
question
is:
is
it
actually
affordable
to
do
this
right,
like
it
makes
common
sense
that,
because
these
are
small
units
that
they'd
be
affordable,
but
after
the
cost
of
buying
a
tiny
home
after
the
cost
of
doing
the
site
work
after
paying
a
monthly
space
rent?
Does
it
still
end
up
being
affordable
for
renters?
So
hopefully
we
can
answer
that
question
and
then,
lastly,
how
do
Neighbors
feel
about
tiny
homes?
This
is
something
that
we
don't
typically
allow.
So
it's
not
something
neighbors
are
seeing
next
door
right
now.
I
How
does
the
neighbor
feel
about
seeing
a
tiny
home
in
their
next
door
yard?
Do
they
care
about
that?
Do
they
feel
similar
to
like
an
Adu
or
or
differently
for
the
Adu
pilot?
The
plan
is
to
get
up
to
10
homeowners,
who
would
get
some
incentives
financially
and
a
lot
of
assistance
to
build
that
Adu
in
their
backyard
and
then
rent
it
out
at
80
of
area
median
income
rates
for
a
period
of
10
years,
and
it
would
be
deed,
restricted.
I
I
They've
also
partnered
leap
has
partnered
with
flinner
homes,
which
is
a
local
Builder
to
build
the
adus,
and
they
have
a
lot
of
experience,
building
adus,
and
so
they
have
four
models
of
adus
that
they've
built
in
the
past
that
that
participants
can
choose
from
and
know
what
they're
looking
at
they'll
get
a
small
Financial
incentive
for
participating,
so
they
will
be
exempt
from
City
Impact
fees,
excluding
sewer
connection
fees
and
those
impact
fees
are
between
1200
and
2600.
I
Depending
on
what
neighborhood
you
live
in,
and
then
we're
also
really
hoping
that's
going
to
test
this
and
see
if
it
works,
but
by
building
5
or
10
adus,
at
a
time
that,
through
that
economy
of
scale,
we
can
bring
down
the
cost
of
an
Adu
and
so
not
totally
clear.
Yet
how
much
we
can
bring
down
the
cost,
but
there's
a
potential
for
some
significant
cost
savings
there,
something
like
10
to
15
000,
just
by
doing
that,
and
so
that
would
be
a
big
incentive
for
somebody.
I
First
is
somebody
who
wants
to
build
an
Adu
outside
of
this
program
and
again
would
be
evaluated
by
Idaho
policy
Institute.
This
slide
shows
three
of
the
four
models
that
participants
are
going
to
be
able
to
choose
from.
The
bottom
right
is
the
smallest
one.
It's
about
250
square
foot
and
it's
a
studio
Adu
above
that
top
right
is
a
500
square
foot
one
bedroom
unit
and
that's
actually
not
a
rendering.
I
That's
an
actual
Adu
that
they've
built
in
in
somebody's
backyard
and
the
participants
and
I
got
a
chance
to
tour
those
adus,
which
was
super
fun
they're
gorgeous
on
the
inside
too,
and
one
thing
I
really
appreciate
about.
Flynter
is
they're
a
b
Corp,
so
they
really
value
sort
of
sustainability,
quality
materials
and
then
on
the
left
side
is
their
700
square
foot
model,
which
is
I,
think
a
two
bedroom
bottle.
I
So
again
we
saw
a
ton
of
interest
in
the
community
and
this
76
folks
applied
to
build
an
Adu
in
the
in
their
backyard
and
be
part
of
this
program.
Leap
narrowed
that
list
down
to
10,
preferred
candidates
and
they're.
Now
working
with
flanner
to
decide
like
which
model
do
I
want.
Does
this
actually
work
for
me
Etc
we're
expecting
that
about
five
of
those
ten
pretty
soon
should
have
get
to
the
no
go
no-go
decision
and
start
the
permitting
process.
I
I
If
we
don't
get
to
a
complete
10
that
we
can
build,
we'll
move
down
that
wait
list
and
bring
more
people
in,
so
that
we
can
hopefully
reach
that
10
goal
and,
of
course,
adus
take
much
longer
to
build
than
tiny
homes.
So
we're
expecting
by
next
winner
is
when
those
adus
will
be
built
and
occupied.
I
We're
really
and
leap
is
really
trying
to
use
the
sort
of
build
measure,
learn
approach
as
part
of
the
pilots
right
to
like
treat
this
as
an
experiment,
see
what
works
and
pivot.
If
we
need
to
two
really
key
early
learnings
from
leap
on
this
are
the
original
process
for
the
adus
was
leap?
Would
do
a
screening
of
participants
and
sort
of
narrow
down
the
list?
I
They
would
give
us
the
list
and
our
planning
staff
would
look
at
it
and
say,
like
oh
here's,
some
folks
who
are
probably
most
likely
to
be
successful,
and
then
we
would
connect
those
people
with
a
builder
to
have
the
conversation
about
designs
and
costs,
and
what
we
realize
is
what
people
really
cared
about.
Is
that
conversation
with
the
Builder,
and
so
we
created
all
this
process
that
took
a
bunch
of
time
for
folks
and
what
they
really
wanted
was
to
have
that
conversation
with
the
Builder
and
so
moving
forward.
I
We're
sort
of
inverting
that
process
so
that
early
on
they're,
going
to
talk
to
flinner
they're,
going
to
see
the
designs
they're
going
to
see
what
it's
going
to
cost
and
can
make
that
decision
and
then
move
forward.
The
other
key
learning
from
early
in
the
process
is
originally
flynter
offered
three
models
up
to
500
square
feet.
I
500
square
feet
was
the
biggest
model,
but
we
heard
loud
and
clear
from
a
lot
of
participants
that
they
really
wanted
to
maximize
that
700
square
feet
and
sort
of
the
attitude
you
see
in
that
quote
is
I
only
get
to
do
this
once
right,
I
only
get
to
build
180
in
my
backyard
might
as
well
maximize
that,
and
so
flynna
responded
by
designing
a
whole
new
way
to
you,
which
is
that
white
two-story
model
you
saw
just
for
this
program,
so
we
can
meet
the
needs
of
the
folks
who
are
interested
for
this
evaluation.
I
Some
of
the
key
questions
again
not
a
comprehensive
list,
but
the
one
that
I'm
most
interested
in
is.
Is
this
approach?
Scalable
right,
I
feel
pretty
confident
with
five
to
ten
adus.
We
can
make
this
work.
There's
people
who
are
interested
we
can
do
this.
Could
we
build
25
or
50
or
100
of
these
a
year?
Would
that
be
possible?
Is
there
demand
for
that?
Does
it
pencil
out
financially
Etc?
That's
really
the
core
question
that
we're
hoping
to
get
from
this
second.
I
Is
that
sort
of
making
it
easy
approach,
providing
all
that
technical
assistance
enough
to
convince
somebody
to
charge
less
rent
that
they
could
get
on
the
open
market
and
for
the
participants?
They've
said
yes,
so
far,
but
we'll
see
how
that
plays
out
once
we're
actually
building
these
units
and
then
what
are
homeowners
experience
with
managing
an
income
restricted
unit?
So
these
units
would
be
hey.
You
have
to
rent
to
somebody
at
80
of
area,
median
income
or
below,
so
that
not
only
are
they
a
landlord
they're,
a
landlord
with
additional
constraints?
I
Is
that
difficult?
Do
they
feel
like
they're
able
to
manage?
That
is
the
technical
technical
assistance
enough
to
make
that
happen,
and
one
thing
I
will
say
is
that
we
are
allowing
participants
to
rent
out
to
a
family
member
as
long
as
they
meet
those
income
requirements.
So
our
hope
is
that
some
of
these
adus
would
be
somebody
renting
out
to
their
returning
college
student
or
an
aging
parent.
I
F
It's
been
a
mayor,
Kyle,
you're,
so
enthusiastic.
It
makes
me
so
excited.
Thank
you
for
exuding,
so
much
energy
I'm,
very
jazzed
about
this
I
have
a
family
member
that
lives
in
an
Adu
I.
Think
it's
a
great
opportunity.
F
So
I
have
two
questions,
though
one
is
have
we
done
any
analysis
on
what
percentage
of
homeowners
this
is
available
to,
because
it's
my
understanding
that
if
you
have
a
homeowners
association
and
in
your
covenants,
you
may
not
be
able
to
put
this
on
your
property
unless
you
go
through
a
different
process,
and
so
that's
number
one.
So
what
can
you
answer
that
one
first.
I
Yes,
of
course,
I
don't
have
a
specific
answer:
a
Madam
mayor
council
members,
I,
don't
have
a
specific
answer
to
that
question.
I
do
know
we
did
some
really
basic
analysis
on
how
many
partials
of
land
there
are
in
the
city
that
are
sort
of
zoned.
First,
that
have
a
single
family
home
and
have
at
least
3
000
square
feet
of
space
in
their
backyard
and
I.
Think
there's
something
like
59
000
Parcels.
So
that's
that's
a
lot.
I
Yeah
you're
right
on
point
that
a
lot
of
folks
live
in
a
homeowners
association
that
doesn't
allow
it,
though,
unfortunately
we
don't
have
good
data
on
that
right
now,
but
something
we've
considered
as
like
a
future
project,
maybe
with
like
a
summer
intern,
is
some
research
on
that
to
understand
where,
in
the
city
it
is
and
isn't
allowed,
but
I
would
be
willing
to
wager
that
there's
it's
not
an
insignificant
amount
of
homeowners.
Who
could
not
do
it.
F
And
so
just
as
a
comment,
Madame
mayor,
I
think
that's
a
great
next
step
and
then
the
the
next
step
is.
Is
that
changeable?
Because
I
know
that
there's
one
kind
of
by
my
neighborhood
it
looks
amazing
and
what,
if
I
want
to
do
it
and
I
can't
do
it?
Because
of
of
what
the
Covenant
says,
what
would
be
the
process
to
change
that,
because
I
think
people's
ideas
are
changing
about
this?
So
if
there's
a
an
intern
or
if
there's
capacity,
I
think
that
would
be
a
great
Next
Step.
H
Go
ahead,
we'll
just
go
down
the
line.
Thank
you,
madam
Mary.
Thanks
Kyle,
it's
great
to
see
you
likewise,
I
love
your
enthusiasm.
So
are
we
providing
any
help
for
the
homeowners
who've
agreed
to
accept
the
rent?
Restricted
units
in
terms
of
the
management
is
Leap,
also
assisting
with
that.
I
That's
Madame
Merrick,
council
member
Clegg,
that's
not
currently
part
of
it,
so
they're
providing
some
very
specific
technical
assistance
to
like
help.
People
create
like
a
lease
and
understand
best
practices
around
it
and
they're
going
to
be
available
for
a
period
of
time
say
the
first
six
months
after
the
Adu
is
occupied
to
sort
of
answer
any
questions
the
homeowner
has,
but
it's
not
currently
part
of
the
model
that
they're
sort
of
actively
property
managing
it.
I
But
again,
I
think
this
will
be
a
learning
experience.
If
we
get
to
that
point
and
we
realize
no,
they
really
need
an
outside
property
manager.
To
make
this
work,
then
I
think
we
would
build
that
into
a
future
iteration
of
the
project.
H
Thank
you,
I
I,
appreciate
that
I
know
that
the
Housing
Authority
in
in
you
know
the
experiment
that
we're
doing
on
the
naturally
occurring,
affordable
housing
and
preserving
that
and
taking
on
that
management
is
another
experiment
in
in
this
Arena,
and
we
should
be
watching
that
and
maybe
comparing
notes.
I
Madam
mayor
council,
member
Clegg,
one
one
thing:
I'll
note
is
there's
a
really
cool
non-profit
out
of
Minnesota
called
yard
homes
and
they
have
a
a
really
great
model
around
this.
That's
a
sort
of
TurnKey
model.
So,
basically
what
they
say
is
hey.
Do
you
want
an
Adu
in
your
backyard?
If
yes,
pay
us
nothing,
we
will
build
an
Adu
in
your
backyard.
I
We
will
property,
manage
it
for
you
and
we
will
put
somebody
with
a
veterans
Housing
Voucher
in
there
for
a
period
of
10
years
after
10
years,
the
Ada
will
be
paid
off
with
that
rental
income,
and
then
it's
yours,
free
and
clear
to
do
with
whatever
you
want
so
like
it
requires
nothing
from
you.
It
requires
no
Financial
commitment
and
in
10
years
you
have
this
great
asset,
a
really
great
model.
I
The
challenge
with
it
is,
you
have
to
have
a
whole
lot
of
capital
to
make
that
work
right
and
we're
just
not
really
at
that
place
right
now.
But
you
know
looking
for
ways
through
this
Adu
pilot
that
we
might
be
able
to
take
on
some
of
those
cool
components.
I
think
would
be
a
great
experiment.
J
Madam
mayor,
thank
you
Kyle,
it's
great
to
see
a
update
on
this
program.
I
know
that
many
of
us
have
been
like
following
it
from
the
outside.
Is
it's
been
going
so
it's
nice
to
see
all
the
progress
that
you
all
have
made.
J
I,
don't
have
any
questions
I'm,
just
really
looking
forward
to
seeing
some
of
these
off
the
ground
or
on
the
ground,
I
guess
and
see
what
the
Idaho
policy
Institute
results
are
after
they're
built
and
see
how
our
community
feels
about
them.
I
think
adus
are
fabulous.
J
I
have
always
wanted
to
live
in
one
and
there's
so
few
and
far
between
in
our
community
that
it's
not
always
possible
to
find
something
like
that.
So
I
think
it's
really
great
to
see
that
they'll
be
more
widespread
thanks.
Thank.
G
You
thank
you
Madam,
mayor
Kyle.
Thank
you.
You
had
a
side
where
it
showed
like
here's,
four
different
types
of
adus
and
one
of
them
was
like
a
basement.
Somebody
dug
underneath
their
house
or
converted,
and
then
there's
I'm
wondering
if
you
decided
to
go
with
the
detached
brand
new
Adu
over
some
of
those
other
types.
For
a
specific
reason.
I
Yes,
Madame
mayor
council
member,
it's
the
easiest
to
scale
right,
because
everybody's
basement
situation
is
different.
Everybody's
garage
is
different,
so
you
can't
sort
of
say
like
here
are
four
models
which
one
do
you
want,
so
it
creates
challenges
on
that
front.
I
There
are
a
couple
of
potential
participants
who
are
interested
in
say:
building
in
a
garage,
I
love
the
garage
and
basement
options,
because
they're
potentially
can
really
lower
the
cost
versus
a
detached
unit,
but
we're
trying
to
figure
out
whether
or
not
that
makes
sense,
given
this
sort
of
model
that
we're
using
and
so
they're
it's
possible
that
we
might
accept
a
couple
of
participants
who
can't
really
work
with
flinner,
because
they're
doing
say
a
garage
conversion,
but
we'll
try
it
anyway
and
sort
of
the
spirit
of
experimentation.
Yeah.
G
G
I
You
and
there's
a
there's,
a
few
really
interesting
sort
of
startups
in
that
space.
That
sort
of
create
modular
kits
so
like
hey
I,
want
to
convert
my
garage
to
an
Adu,
the
sort
of
kits
that
you
can
buy.
You
give
them
your
sort
of
like
dimensions
and
they'll.
Send
you
all
the
stuff
you
need
to
do
to
kind
of
turn
it
into
an
Adu
in
a
low-cost
way,
sort
of
using
a
lot
of
Sweat
Equity.
So
some
really
cool
stuff
in
that
space
for
sure.
C
A
Well,
thank
you
that
looks
like
it.
I
just
I
want
to
say
thanks
too
to
you
Sam
and
the
whole
team
I
when
this
started,
and
we
did
the
kind
of
crowdsourcing
Community
engagement
piece,
it
was
really
fun
to
hear
the
ideas
from
boyceans
and
really
proud
of
the
two
proposals
that
the
community
and
the
team
came
up
with
and
look
forward
to.
A
You
know
seeing
these
homes
on
the
ground
and
then
the
research
from
the
policy
Institute,
because
this
is
part
of
our
work,
to
try
new
ideas
to
build
measure
and
learn,
as
you
talked
about
to
achieve
our
goal,
which
is
to
encourage,
through
public
private
Partnerships,
the
building
of
homes
of
Boise
budgets,
so
I'm
excited
to
see
this
progress.
Thank
you.
Thanks.
I
A
A
And
if
Steve's
getting
ready,
a
lot
of
work
has
been
done
by
our
climate
action
division
and
Doug
mentioned
today
is
Zach
through.
That
is
a
you
know,
through
Partnerships,
with
CCDC
and
and
the
Boise
Valley
Economic
Development
partnership
and
our
own
office
of
Economic
Development
I'm
called
out
our
climate
work
and
the
work
of
the
climate
Division
and
the
goals
that
this
Council
has
set.
As
a
reason
they
chose
Boise
to
bring
manufacturing
and
new
jobs.
A
Here,
it's
a
continued
conversation
that
we
have
with
Micron
and
part
of
their
decision
to
make
investment
and
bring
new
jobs
here,
and
so
this
work
that
Steve
leads
is
not
only
ensuring
that
we're
protecting
the
health
of
our
residents,
but
it's
also
a
key
strategy
in
ensuring
that
we
have
prosperity
and
opportunity
for
everybody
in
the
future.
K
A
K
Thank
you
mayor,
as
mayor
mentioned,
Steve
Hubble,
climate
action
manager,
Public
Works
nice-
to
be
here
with
you
this
afternoon
before
we
jump
into
the
you
kind
of
point-by-point
climate,
Action
Project
updates
just
wanted
to
touch
on
a
couple
broader
updates
from
public
works.
These
these
were
left
over
from
the
presentation
a
few
weeks
ago
on
strategic
priorities
that
that
Council
didn't
get
a
chance
to
see.
So
we
thought
it
was
important
just
to
mention
these
three
primarily
focused
around
water
renewal
work.
K
The
first
is
the
wiffy
alone
and
wifey
is
a
low
low
interest.
Loan
program
through
the
federal
government
that'll
help
provide
a
financing
vehicle
for
some
of
the
water
renewal
and
Wastewater
projects
that
need
to
go
forward
for
the
community
in
the
coming
years.
One
of
those
projects
is
the
Lander
Street
water
renewal
facility,
The
Phase
One
upgrades
were
completed
in
2022,
a
62
million
dollar
proximate
project
cost
under
budget.
K
So
certainly
the
planning
and
construction
team
very
excited
about
that
and
then
the
last
one
now
not
shocking
to
any
of
you
to
have
this
included,
but
the
the
Micron
expansion
a
lot
of
work
from
from
our
team
on
that
and
the
associated
infrastructure
out
in
that
part
of
town.
That's
going
to
need
to
accompany
that
project.
K
The
two
on
the
left
are
focused
on
city
government
and
that's
where
we
have
our
opportunity
to
demonstrate
leadership
and
provide
Lessons
Learned
in
our
work
to
share
with
the
community
as
the
community
moves
on
its
Journey
towards
clean
electricity
and
carbon
neutrality,
and
then
just
want
to
note
the
asterisk
on
the
first
bullet.
There
we
aspire
to
achieve
that
goal
by
2023
and
I
think
when
that
happened,
2023
felt
far
away.
K
But
but
here
we
are
so
one
of
the
key
ways
that
we
track
progress
towards
those
goals,
particularly
the
carbon
neutral
goals,
is
through
greenhouse
gas
emissions.
Inventories
that
we
develop
now
annually
and
we
also
developed
two
of
those
one
for
the
community
and
one
for
city
government.
So
I'm
excited
to
share
that
for
our
community
inventory
from
2020
to
2021
we're
down
three
percent
so
excited
to
see
a
reduction
in
emissions.
K
K
And
then
smaller
scale,
but
bigger
percent
change
in
the
city
government
facilities
down
21
in
that
same
time
frame
so
so
really
exciting
progress.
You
know.
Certainly
a
combination
of
different
things
help
help
create
that
progress,
but
I
think
particularly
in
City
facilities,
you're
starting
to
see
the
cumulative
impact
of
work
in
Energy,
Efficiency,
renewable
energy,
renewable
energy
and
other
related
initiatives
over
time,
some
of
which
we'll
talk
through
this
afternoon,
jumping
in
now
to
a
couple
project
updates.
K
As
council's
aware,
we've
been
working
with
Idaho
Power
for
several
years
to
try
to
develop
new
procurement
programs
or
purchasing
programs
for
customers
of
all
sizes
from
us
at
our
home
to
the
city,
at
our
large
facilities
like
the
airport
or
water
renewal
facility
facilities,
and
to
be
able
to
have
a
purchasing
program
to
allow
us
to
directly
purchase
renewable
electricity
through
our
utility.
So
we
were
excited
to
see
last
year
that
Idaho
Power
filed
for
an
expansion
of
their
current
program
offerings.
K
You've
also
heard
a
lot
recently
about
municipal
building
electrification.
We
are
in
the
pilot
phase
of
that
work.
I
would
describe
and
have
three
facilities
going
to
construction
this
spring.
We
hope
to
have
those
completed
in
2022,
but,
like
many
other
things,
we
found
out
that
the
supply
chain
for
heating
and
air
conditioning
equipment
is
constrained
like
many
others,
so
those
contracts
are
in
place.
Equipment
is
on
order
and
those
should
go
forward
shortly.
This
Spring
Hope
to
share
an
update
back
with
you
when
those
are
completed.
K
In
addition,
preliminary
design
using
American
Rescue
plan
funding
is
underway,
for
hopefully
an
additional
five
to
seven
buildings,
some
of
which
are
our
more
significant
Natural
Gas
users.
So
with
conversion
there
we
can
see
impact
in
a
shorter
period
of
time
and
just
to
give
you
an
example
of
one
of
those
projects.
This
is
the
Fort
Boise
recreation
community
center.
This
is
one
of
those
three
projects.
K
That'll
go
to
construction
this
spring
and
while
we've
talked
mostly
about
electrification,
I'm
really
excited
with
this
particular
project
because
of
where
this
facility
is
located,
we're
actually
able
to
connect
this
building
to
the
geothermal
system,
so
we
can
transition
it
to
our
own
low-cost
and
locally
sourced
clean
energy
utility
which
we're
really
excited
about
electric
vehicles.
We
continue
to
work
on
a
replacement
basis
to
replace
vehicles
in
the
city
fleet
that
are
good
candidates
for
an
electric
replacement.
K
Additionally,
we're
seeing
progress
with
Partners
at
Valley,
Regional,
Transit
I'm
sure
you
all
have
seen
the
brightly
colored
buses
come
through
town
and
also
Republic
Services.
Now,
five
fully
electric
trash
trucks
on
the
road
in
town
with,
hopefully
an
additional
five
more
to
come
this
year
to
complete
out
the
first
part
of
their
Fleet
transition
work
and
additionally,
I'm
sure
you
all
have
noticed
it's.
It's
really
apparent
to
see
the
uptake
and
just
general
use
electric
vehicles
on
the
road.
They
seem
to
be
really
apparent
everywhere.
K
I
go
clearly
I'm
looking
for
them
more,
but
those
registrations
amongst
private
residents
are
also
continuing
to
increase
in
the
coming
year.
We're
probably
really
going
to
be
focused
on
identifying
Federal
funding
opportunities
to
help
with
continued
conversion
of
the
fleet
or
or
charging
infrastructure
at
City
facilities,
where
those
opportunities
may
become
available
and,
additionally,
with
our
work
in
the
development
code,
rewrite
we're
incorporating
EV
Readiness
requirements
for
commercial
and
multi-family
development
to
help
support
the
transition
transition.
K
Excuse
me
in
the
community
wanted
to
show
a
picture
here
of
one
of
our
new
vehicles
and
it's
a
utility
van,
perhaps
not
the
most
exciting
vehicle
in
and
of
itself,
but
this
is
a
fully
electric
Ford,
Transit
van
and
I
think
why
I'm
really
excited
and
what
I
find
really
significant
about
this
particular
vehicle
is.
This
is
a
type
of
vehicle.
That's
really
used
throughout
a
lot
of
our
small
businesses
in
town
and
I.
K
Think
if
the
city
can
prove
up
the
success
of
this
type
of
vehicle,
it's
really
demonstrative
of
how
it
could
work,
also
with
with
those
private
users
as
well.
This
is
a
public
works
vehicle.
It's
on
the
road
a
bit
traveling
from
place
to
place,
so
we
use
the
opportunity
to
do
the
the
decals
and
lettering
which,
which
is
fun
to
have
that
out
on
the
road,
but
some
others
on
the
way
this
year
we're
starting
to
see
some
of
the
supply
chain.
K
Issues
in
in
the
electric
vehicles
loosen
a
little
bit
so
I
think
we'll
see
more
of
this
throughout
the
remainder
of
the
year.
The
geothermal
system
always
exciting
to
provide
some
updates.
As
you
all
are
aware,
it's
our
city
operated
clean
energy
utility,
providing
energy
to
a
number
of
buildings
downtown
and
then
across
the
river
at
Boise
State.
We
have
three
additional
construction
projects
scheduled
to
connect
in
the
near
term
and
had
a
couple
Connections
in
in
2022
as
well
and
then
piggybacking
on
Kyle's
presentation.
K
A
few
minutes
ago
we
were
able
to
pursue
a
similar
design.
Sprint
in
2022,
like
Kyle,
talked
about
for
the
tiny
housing
and
Adu
options,
and
our
design
Sprint
was
around.
How
do
we
grow
participation
in
the
geothermal
system
and
some
good
ideas
came
out
of
that
I
think
more
more
to
come
in
terms
of
sharing
some
of
the
output
of
that.
K
We
primarily
use
it
for
heating
right
now,
which
means
it's
primarily
a
winter
system,
but
bringing
in
a
cooling
component
could
really
expand
its
usage
and
applicability
on
a
year-round
basis
also
want
to
point
out
that
we
partnered
on
that
application
with
the
Idaho
National
Lab
Boise,
State
University
and
the
College
of
Western
Idaho,
so
excited
about
that
partnership.
Opportunity
and
hoping
to
hear
about
whether
we
receive
funding
in
March
or
April
so
cross
your
fingers
for
that
moving
forward.
The
system
is
40
years
old,
so
it
is
aging
right
now.
K
So
we
continue
to
have
some
repair
and
maintenance
activities
annually
each
year
and
we'll
also
to
continue
to
look
to
identify
new
connections
to
existing
buildings
or
new
buildings
as
those
come
online
and
additional
opportunities
for
federal
funding
if
they
present
themselves
and
then
just
a
little
peek
down
under
the
street,
which
you
normally
don't
get
to
see.
And
what
you're
seeing
here
the
geothermal
system
is
a
two-pipe
system.
So
those
are
the
the
two
major
pipes
that
deliver
the
water
to
and
from
the
places
that
they
need
to
go.
K
Well,
so
that
water
is
returned
into
the
ground
and
essentially
makes
the
the
aquifer
where
the
geothermal
water
is
heated,
sustainable
on
a
long-term
basis
on
our
work
with
Frontline
communities,
council
did
a
second
allocation
to
the
LA
to
community
action
partnership
in
August
for
a
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
dollars
to
provide
direct
local
support
to
their
weatherization
and
efficiency
programs,
which
are
also
supported
by
our
Utility
Partners,
and
the
federal
government
and
those
programs
support
City
residents
who
are
really
in
significant
need
of
those
services
and
so
far
that
funding
has
helped
to
weatherize
64
homes
and
138
individuals
living
in
those
homes
and
has
resulted
in
an
energy
savings
annually,
that's
equivalent
to
the
average
consumption
of
about
45
residential
homes
per
year.
K
So
some
pretty
significant
Energy
savings
with
that
work.
In
addition
to
that,
I
think,
approximately
a
year
ago
we
presented
on
the
clean
City
index,
which
was
a
mapping
tool
that
we
helped
develop
to
identify
areas
in
the
city
that
may
face
greater
challenges
with
Equity
environmental
justice
and
Community
Health
and
we're
using
that
tool
where
we
can
to
Pilot
some
of
our
climate
action
and
other
initiatives,
one
of
which
I'll
talk
about
in
the
subsequent
slides,
but
particularly
with
this
tool.
When
we
developed
our
agreement
with
elata
this
fall.
K
We
built
that
language
into
there
to
try
to
prioritize
some
of
their
funding
where
possible,
to
those
areas
which
we
identified
in
the
indexes
having
a
high
energy
burden,
or
in
other
words,
a
high
higher
proportion
of
an
individual
households,
cost
on
energy
in
2023.
We'll
look
to
fund
a
third
year
of
participation
in
that
program
and
then
continue
to
identify
AI
opportunities
to
utilize,
the
Clean
City
index
and
other
programs
and
projects,
and
just
a
stock
photo
here.
K
Unfortunately,
but
this
just
gives
you
a
little
feel
for
what
weatherization
work
might
consist
of
in
this
picture.
This
is
insulation,
that's
in
happening
in
exterior
walls,
and
so
the
the
weatherization
program
really
covers
a
wide
Suite
of
of
services,
depending
on
what
the
needs
are
of
that
particular
residence.
K
And
then
the
last
project
update
excited
to
share
some
work
from
The
Parks
and
Recreation
Department
and
the
City
of
trees
challenge
the
challenge.
Challenge
has
kind
of
a
two-phase
approach
to
their
goals,
so
the
first
is
within
the
city
and
the
goal
there
is
to
plant
a
tree
for
every
household
in
the
city,
approximately
a
hundred
thousand,
so
you
can
see
that
approximately
2500
trees
were
planted
in
2021,
and
that
brings
us
up
to
a
total
of
more
than
thirteen
thousand.
K
That
number,
maybe
maybe
Higher
by
now,
but
I
think
what
was
interesting
that
was
added
this
year
is
there
was
some
partnership
with
Idaho
Power
Idaho
Power
has
historically
run
their
own
shade
tree
program,
which
they've
used
as
an
Energy
Efficiency
incentive.
So
essentially,
if
you
plant
a
tree
strategically
around
your
house
that
helps
block
sunlight
once
the
tree
grows
in
the
afternoon.
That
can
ultimately
keep
your
house
cooler
and
result
in
an
energy
savings.
K
So
there
was
a
part
partnership
there
with
the
city's
initiative
and
then
also
some
partnering
with
the
Arbor
Day
Foundation
to
support
better
Data,
Tracking
and
planting
information,
I'm
sure,
council,
member
Clegg
could
probably
recite
these
talking
points
better
than
I
can.
So,
if
you
have
any
detailed
questions,
there
I'm
glad
I'm
glad
she's
here
to
help
me
out
additionally.
K
Last
year
the
Boise
tree
captains
volunteer
program
was
also
launched
and
that's
a
program
to
really
start
to
to
scale
down
the
implementation
of
this
work
to
the
neighborhood
scale,
recruiting
volunteers,
who
have
the
capacity
to
go
door
to
door
in
their
neighborhoods
to
attempt
to
identify
tree
planning
sites
additional
participants-
and
you
can
see
the
statistic
on
some
of
the
work
that
the
tree
captains
were
able
to
accomplish
this
year
and
then,
in
addition
to
the
in-town
plantings.
K
The
challenge
also
has
an
additional
goal
to
plant
235
seedlings,
that's
equivalent
to
our
approximate
population
out
in
the
national
forest,
and
my
understanding
is
that
at
least
150
of
thousand
of
those
have
been
planted.
So
great
progress.
K
So
far,
some
additional
support
and
funding
on
that
from
the
U.S
forest
Service
and
the
Arbor
Day
Foundation,
and
it's
expected
that
that
goal
is
going
to
be
achieved
well
out
in
advance
of
the
the
2030
time
frame
and
and
maybe
a
potential
to
go
above
and
beyond
there,
so
very
exciting
stuff
happening
with
the
work
on
the
city
of
trees
challenge.
K
That
is
all
the
topics
that
I
came
prepared
to
print
present
on
today.
Certainly
there's
a
number
of
other
good
things
happening
so
glad
to
answer
any
questions
about
the
content
here
or
anything
else,
that's
happening
as
you
all
see
fit.
Thank
you.
H
Go
ahead
if
I
could
just
add
a
couple
of
quick
things
about
the
city
of
trees,
challenge
really
exciting,
that
the
inflation
reduction
act
and
some
of
the
other
Federal
funding
that's
come
about
last
year,
really
has
a
lot
of
opportunities
to
potentially
help
fund,
even
more
robust
programming.
But
to
me
even
maybe
more
exciting
is
that
we've
now
attracted
to
private
interests
who
are
interested
in
helping
partner
to
plant
some
trees.
H
The
Arbor
Day
Foundation
has
a
partner
who
might
help
us
plant
some
trees,
this
spring
and
and
another
group
wants
to
help
in
the
fall.
So
it
when
you,
when
you
have
success,
it
attracts
other
people
who
want
to
be
part
of
it
and
it
looks
like
because
of
all
of
the
Partnerships
in
this
I'm,
not
taking
any
credit
for
it.
It's
all
of
the
good
work
of
Public,
Works
and
parks
and
and
all
of
our
outside
Partners,
but
because
of
that
success,
we're
attracting
a
whole
bunch
of
other
interests.
K
Madam
mayor
council,
member
Clegg
I'm
actually
going
to
use
that
opportunity
to
dovetail
a
little
bit
into
Federal
funding
and,
and
certainly
there's
so
many
opportunities
out
there.
It's
almost
a
tad
overwhelming,
but
we're
continuing
to
evaluate
those
and
figuring
out
how
they
might
support
the
city's
climate
initiatives.
I
also
think
it's
important
to
to
point
out
just
for
us,
as
as
people
in
our
residents
and
businesses,
there's
a
tremendous
amount
of
federal
tax
credits
that
went
into
place
in
2023.
K
That
can
support
a
number
of
items
around
the
home
that
relate
to
this
work.
Also,
tax
incentives
for
electric
vehicle
purchases,
both
used
and
new,
and
also
we're
anticipating
some
rebate
programs
as
well
that
are
sort
of
a
parallel
track
to
those
tax
incentives
to
be
deployed
by
the
state
either
later
this
year
or
in
early
2024
and
those
are
targeted
at
households
at
150
percent
or
less
of
area
median
income
and
are
pretty
significant
rebate
programs
that
could
almost
fully
pay
for
some
of
these
upgrades
or
transition
work.
K
G
And
Mary
Steve
thanks
for
the
presentation,
there
was
a
slide
and
it
had
a
bunch
of
different
bar
graphs
that
were
broken
into
different
colors
at
the
beginning.
I
don't
want
to
try
to
yeah
I,
don't
want
to
try
to
pull,
and
maybe
one
more
to
the
past
there.
This
next
one
yeah.
G
I,
don't
want
to
pull
anecdotal
data
out
of
small
bars
that
are
on
there,
but
like
when
I'm.
Looking
at
this
I
see
an
employee
commute
greenhouse
gas
thing
that
looks
like
it's
either
grown
or
like
stayed
about
the
same
as
the
last
several
years,
but
hasn't
necessarily
changed
or
increased,
but
definitely
went
up
from
2020,
which
I'm
guessing
probably
had
something
to
do
with
the
pandemic
am
I
kind
of
reading
that
right.
K
Mayor
council,
member
Hallie
Burton,
you
know
broadly
I,
think
sometimes
developing
greenhouse
gas
emissions.
Inventories
is
an
art
more
than
a
science,
sometimes
so
there's
that
intrinsic
challenge
but
specific
to
that
question.
Yes,
my
perspective
is
the
reason
you
see
that
change
from
2020
to
2021
is
likely
pandemic.
Driven
and
I
do
consider
2020
a
bit
of
an
anomaly
in
multiple
ways
that
we'll
look
to
see
how
that
normalizes
over
the
next
couple
years.
One
thing
we
did
this
year
is
the
way
that
we
generate.
G
Stevie
kanellick
answer
all
my
follow-up
questions
with
like
how
do
you
figure
that
out,
like
what
are
the
different
percentages?
I
find
that,
like
tremendously
interesting
from
a
commuting
perspective,
so
that's
really
really
cool
and
I
would
love
to
see
if
there's,
if
you
have
that
down
anywhere,
what
are
the
mode
share
sort
of
percentages
if
we
have
any
idea
what
those
are
because
I
think
that
that
would
be
interesting
to
figure
out
what
you
could
do
to
potentially
challenge
or
push
people
or
offer
incentives
in
other
areas
as
well.
C
Yes,
I
won't
be
long
Steve.
Do
we
on
the
residential
Energy
Efficiency
side
of
things,
particularly
with
the
city-wide
goals?
Do
we
know
you
know
things
like
leaky
walls,
leaky,
Windows,
the
type
of
household
residential
upgrades
that
need
to
happen?
Do
we
know
like?
Is
there
a
Venn
diagram
of
how
I'm
trying
to
try
to
ask
this
in
a
way,
that's
clear
and
correct,
but
like
how
many,
how
much
of
that
need
is
distributed
across
household
income?
In
other
words,
are
the
at
median
income
and
Below
median
income
houses?
C
K
Matamir,
council
member
bajent
short
answer:
no,
we
probably
haven't
got
to
that
level
of
of
data
refinement
just
yet
a
couple
kind
of
follow-up
points.
We
know
in
terms
of
the
weatherization
program
that
we
spoke
to
and
those
are
residents
that
have
particularly
low
incomes
compared
to
Ami.
There
is
a
significant
amount
of
need,
while
we're
really
proud
of
what
we've
been
able
to
impact
so
far.
The
list
there
is
long,
so
there's
significant
work
work
there
to
be
done.
K
You
know
in
other
housing
stocks,
it's
it's
very
I,
think
it's
very
sporadic
depending
on
age
of
Home
type
of
construction,
some
of
those
things
and
we
haven't
had
a
chance
to
take
a
deep
dive
there.
That's.
C
Fair
I
think
that's
the
reason
I
was
thinking
about
it
is
it's
it's,
among
other
things,
more
expensive
to
own
an
inefficient
home
and
for
houses
for
households
with
lower
incomes,
that
expenses
a
greater
percentage
of
the
monthly
or
weekly
or
yearly
income.
The
expense
is
felt
more,
and
so
there's
this
just
this
kind
of
social
justice
element
to
the
type
of
work
that
you
described.
That
just
had
me
thinking
as
you're,
presenting
about
some
of
our
lower
income
residents
who
do
own
their
homes.
No.
K
C
K
J
Thank
you,
madamir
Steve,
I
love
talking
about
EVS,
it's
one
of
my
very
favorite
things
and
I.
Don't
know
if
this
is
a
you
question
or
a
clerk's
office
question,
but
I
I
think
we
might
have
some
room
to
potentially
revamp
or
update
our
parking
programs
for
EVS.
J
Currently,
residents
who
have
EVS
can
get
a
parking
pass.
I
think
it's
like
ten
dollars
a
year
where
they
can
park
at
any
City
meter.
So
I
think
we
might
want
to
kind
of
re-look
at
that
and
look
at
our
processes.
For
that,
because
last
time
I
got
mine.
J
I
had
to
drive
all
the
way
out
to
the
city
shop
out
on
Dorman,
so
that
someone
could
look
at
my
car
and
say
that
it
was
in
fact
an
EV
when
I
also
pay
a
tremendous
amount
on
my
registration,
because
I
own
an
EV,
so
I
could
just
potentially
bring
in
my
registration
card
and
say
I
own
an
EB.
So
maybe
we
can
look
at
that
figure
out
if
our
fees
are
still
fair.
J
If
there's
some
process
updates
so
that
when
folks
are
getting
EVS,
the
city's
kind
of
doing
our
piece
as
well
to
make
sure
that
they
get
to
have
some
perks
and
then
so
that
wasn't
a
question
I'm
sorry
for
geothermal!
You
had
talked
about
some
of
our
potential
Partnerships
with
Boise,
State
and
CWI.
Have
there
been
any
conversations
with
our
lower
grade
school
district,
Boise,
Boise,
Public,
Schools
or
westada.
K
K
If
you
buy
kind
of
an
off
the
lot
electric
vehicle,
I
think
you're,
good
I
think
there
are
some
scenarios
where
people
have
sort
of
taken
a
DIY
approach
to
electric
vehicles
and
if
that's
the
case,
we
still
do
require
that
inspection,
but
I
can
I
can
check
in
with
the
DFA
team
and
the
clerks
team,
to
confirm
that
and
get
back
to
you
in
terms
of
geothermal
collaboration
on
the
school
district
level.
I'm,
not
sure
that
I've
been
involved
in
any
recent
discussions.
K
Perhaps
our
geothermal
team
has
certainly
Boise
high,
is
is
right
on
the
service
line
and
is
connected
I'm,
not
sure
if
there
are
any
other
schools.
That
would
be
geographically
conducive
to
a
connection
to
the
city's
system.
But
I
can
certainly
check
in
with
the
geothermal
engineering
team
and
get
back
to
you
on
that.
A
Steve
Steve
we
could
just
I
was
thinking
about
it
just
in
terms
of
stem
steam,
education,
oh
steam
education,
the
I
mean
we
do
tours
of
city
hall
for
kiddos
that
are
studying,
Idaho
history
and
stuff
it'd
just
be
fun
even
to
see.
If
we
could
build
in
this
is
a
plug
for
everybody
to
visit.
A
quick
tour
of
the
system
downstairs.
It's
super
clean,
it's
so
joyfully
painted
and
Western
Governors
Association
was
here
and
did
a
tour
and
we
shared
with
them
our
basement
system.
K
A
All
right
well,
thank
you.
So
much
Steve
really
appreciate
the
presentation
and
even
more
so
the
work
that's
being
done
and
the
kind
of
the
impact
that's
happening
and
particularly
where
you're
measuring
and,
as
we
say,
what
gets
measured,
gets
managed
and
are
able
to
show
us
that
right
now
we,
you
know
we
had
great
drops
in
our
carbon
output,
but
this
is
one
of
those
iterative
things
where
we
might
have
really
good
year
in
the
next
year,
pops
up
a
little
bit
and
then
we'll
ask
ourselves.
A
But
ultimately
this
is
so
much
about
saving
money
for
our
residents
too,
and
so
with
the
great
partnership
we
have
with
Idaho
Power
to
ensure
that
we've
got
clean
electricity
powering
municipal
buildings
first
and
then,
ultimately,
our
whole
city,
the
more
we
Electrify,
the
more
we're
safe,
we're
providing
clean
Power
to
our
residents
because
they
use
these
buildings,
but
also
the
more
we're
helping
save
money
in
the
long
run,
and
so
this
is
a
really
important
and
super
excited
about
the
potential
that
came
out
of
the
innovate.
