A
Thank
you.
Okay.
First
up
courtney,
we've
got
courtney
washburn
to
go
through
some
strategic
initiative
planning
updates,
and
this
is
a
great
time
too.
If,
in
this
there
are
particular
topics
you'd,
like
deeper
review
of
we
can,
let
us
know
we'll
make
sure
to
schedule
those
out
welcome.
C
Thank
you,
madam
mayor
members
of
the
council.
My
name
is
courtney
washburn,
I'm
the
chief
of
staff
for
the
city
of
boise,
and
I'm
before
you
today
to
talk
through
some
strategic
initiatives.
A
couple
caveats
one
is
this:
isn't
all
of
the
strategic
initiatives,
two
I'm
presenting
the
work
of
others.
So
please
know
I
am
not
doing
all
this
work
on
my
own.
C
It's
the
fine
staff
of
the
city
of
boise
and
three
to
the
mayor's
point,
I'd
like
to
know
at
the
end
of
this,
what
questions
you
have
and
then,
if
you'd
like
further
discussion
of
any
of
these
topics
in
the
future.
Just
let
me
know
so
today
we
have
housing,
economic
development,
transportation
and
climate,
and
one
thing
I
wanted
to
mention
about
the
four
of
these
initiatives
is
that
we're
using
a
cohesive
strategy
to
kind
of
bring
all
four
of
these
together.
C
One
is
to
maximize
our
resources.
The
city
alone
can't
solve
some
of
these
challenges,
so
we
need
to
convene
and
coordinate
and
seek
additional
funding
and
action
from
a
variety
of
partners.
We
also
need
to
take
advantage
of
the
opportunity
to
address
multiple
issues
at
one
time.
In
my
mind,
the
best
example
of
that
is
an
affordable
housing
development
powered
by
clean
electric
energy
on
a
major
transit
line
that
provides
workforce,
that's
needed
in
the
economy
and
then
also
we
need
to
create
solutions
informed
by
consistent
and
inclusive
community
engagement.
C
C
You
approve
the
demolition
delay
ordinance
which
hopefully
will
help
us
preserve
some
existing,
affordable
housing
and
then
the
creation
of
a
housing
bonus
ordinance
will
incentivize
the
development
of
affordable
housing.
I
think
the
first
use
of
that
ordinance
is
currently
in
the
works
and
then,
as
you
all
know,
the
efforts
to
rewrite
the
city's
zoning
code
is
underway
to
ensure
new
development
aligns
with
the
city's
values
the
next
steps,
and
again
these
don't
include
all
the
next
steps.
These
are
just
the
ones
I
wanted
to
highlight.
C
We're
also
working
with
a
consultant
to
get
a
much
better
understanding
of
the
housing
needs
in
the
community
and
also
the
income
levels
associated
with
those
housing
needs
and
then
we'll
apply
that
data
to
set
targets
for
both
supportive
housing
and
affordable
housing
and
then
also
to
develop
or
further
refine
tools
to
get
the
outcomes
we're
looking
for
in
those
areas,
and
that
is
what
I've
got
on.
Housing
on
economic
development,
invest
in
partnerships
and
programs
to
support
recovery
and
build
economic
resilience.
C
This
was
further
highlighted
with
the
covid
pandemic
and
the
need
for
us
to
dedicate
some
resources
and
understanding
recovery
and
resilience
also
to
partner
with
the
community
to
address
critical
workforce
needs
that
include
early
education,
housing
and
child
care.
We
need
to
continue
to
attract
sorry,
employers
that
reflect
boise's
character
and
complement
our
existing
businesses
that
support
potential
employees
and
foster
informed
partnerships
to
enhance
the
city's
business
climate
and
then
foster
entrepreneurship
by
facilitating
access.
C
The
progress
you
approved
the
launch
of
a
small
business
program
to
support
local
businesses
and
organizations
during
the
pandemic.
We
really
expect
to
be
able
to
continue
that
program
with
the
new
recovery
funds
made
available,
developed
boise
on
the
block
program
allowing
businesses
to
operate
safely
while
expanding
onto
sidewalks.
C
Also,
we
increased
staffing
to
build
our
capacity
and
advance
our
capability
in
business
attraction,
retention
and
expansion,
and
then
we
launched
a
child
care
task
force
to
create
recommendations,
child
care,
in
particular,
in
regards
to
kovid,
I
think,
highlighted
an
ongoing
challenge
that
we
had
in
the
city
even
before
the
pandemic.
So
the
task
force
will
issue
recommendations
that
the
city
can
then
act
on.
C
C
It
should
come
back
before
you
in
june
2021
with
metrics
for
numbers
and
the
types
of
businesses
attracted,
and
then
we
want
to
collaborate
with
partners
for
development,
to
increase
housing
stock
and
make
it
easier
for
residents
to
bus
bike
and
work.
That's
another
example
of
where
these
initiatives
are
not
standalone.
C
On
climate,
the
goals
are
100
clean
energy
by
2035
for
the
community
and
the
city
goal
is
a
hundred
percent
clean
by
2030.,
establish
climate
action
goals
for
our
community
and
operations.
We're
excited
to
bring
those
to
you
in
june,
and
those
goals
should
identify
reductions
to
greenhouse
gas
emissions
to
achieve
carbon
neutrality
while
enhancing
the
community's
resilience
and
adaptation
to
the
impacts.
C
C
C
The
next
steps-
I'm
sorry
this
is
so
wordy.
That's
what
you
get
when
you
make
a
climate
division,
so
we
are
going
to
release
boise's
first
climate
action
roadmap
to
establish
some
of
the
goals
I've
already
mentioned.
C
C
And
that
is
what
I
have
for
you
today
and
again
I'd
stand
for
questions.
If
I
don't
know
the
answer,
I
will
find
them
and
I'm
also
interested
if
I
mention
anything
that
you
would
like
to
see
a
deeper
dive
on
or
if
there's
just
another
topic,
that's
brought
up
that
you
would
like
to
be
presented
with
more
information
on.
A
Yeah
we'll
go
with
council
president
and
then
council,
member
weddings.
Thank
you.
D
Thank
you
for
the
overview
courtney.
It's
good
to
be
reminded
of
all
the
things
that
we
are
doing
already.
It's
a
lot
and
really
appreciate
it.
I
have
a
couple
of
comments
just
in
each
section
on
the
housing.
I
think
we'll
talk
about
that
later,
but
I
hope
we
can
explore
a
way
for
the
city
council
to
really
do
a
deep
dive
into
the
strategy
and
see
what
more
we
can
do,
because
I
think
there
probably
is
more
to
do
there.
D
An
economic
development.
You
didn't
mention
the
industrial
park,
but
it
really
is
at
a
point
where
I
think
it's
going
to
really
bear
some
big
dividends
to
us.
We've
got
about
500
000
square
feet
of
new
industrial
development
underway
and
another
million
square
feet
under
proposal,
and
those
are
going
to
be
jobs
that
that
you
know
we
desperately
need
because
they're
better
paying
jobs,
but
that
ties
into
the
next
two,
which
is
we
need
to
make
sure
that
the
transportation
and
housing
are
such
that
they
can
serve
that
area.
D
Well-
and
I
you
know,
it's
we've
got
time
to
do
it,
but
I
think
it's
time
to
start
talking
about
it
now,
if
that
makes
sense,
and
then
finally,
in
the
climate
action
again
transportation
I
think,
is
something
that
we
should
really
think
about
as
one
of
our
climate
goals.
I
think
there
are
ways
I
know
that
we've
done
the
ev,
but
beyond
ev
there's
other
transportation,
things
that
would
be
helpful
and
then
just
sort
of
self-interested
one,
don't
forget.
The
city
of
trees.
D
A
You
thank
you
councilmember.
E
Weddings.
Thank
you,
madam
mayor
courtney.
I
just
had
a
couple
of
questions
under
the
economic
development
heading
there.
You
did
talk
a
little
bit
about
attracting
businesses,
and
I
was
wondering
if
growing
our
own
businesses
and
helping
boiseans
with
growing
their
own
businesses
is
also
part
of
that.
C
Madam
mayor
councilmember
weddings,
yes,
the
good
news
is
the
strategic
plan
is
comprehensive
and
will
include.
This
is
my
jargon,
not
theirs,
the
biggest
bang
for
the
buck
when
it
comes
to
economic
development.
So
with
the
resources
the
city
has
how
best
to
both
retain
the
businesses
we
have
and
attract
new
ones.
E
Great,
thank
you
and
then
my
next
question
was
about
the
child
care
task
force.
I
remember
that
budget
the
budget
allocation,
but
I
haven't
heard
much
about
it
since-
was
that
just
an
internal
child
care
task
force
to
explore
child
care
for
city
employees
or
was
that
more
of
a
city-wide
task
force.
C
Madam
mayor
council,
member
winnings,
we
have
both,
so
we
have
an
internal
child
care
task
force
to
help
our
workforce
address
their
child
care
needs.
You
approved
a
study
of
a
potential
city
supported
facility
that
did
get
a
bit
way
laid
by
the
pandemic
and
the
it
was
just
not
a
great
time
to
launch
a
look
at
child
care,
but
we
will
be
conducting
that
I
think
we
were
looking
at
starting
again
in
the
summer.
E
Okay,
great
thank
you
so
much
sure
and
just
kind
of
on
a
macro
scale
I
enjoyed
having
a
update,
I
feel,
like
I
don't
know
if
it's
just
me,
but
I
felt
super
super
disengaged
and
not
really
knowing
what's
going
on
and
so
now
I
feel
a
little
bit
more
connected
and
I
appreciate
it.
F
And
my
apologies-
I
I
came
from
a
another
team's
meeting
that
just
ended,
so
thank
you
for
waiting
for
me
guys
so
courtney.
I
apologize
if
I,
if
I
missed
it,
but
I'm
wondering
if
there's
anything
we
have
planned
for
reaching
out
to.
F
Let's
say
those
businesses,
those
folks
who
you
know
come
from
underrepresented
populations
and
in
doing
any
sort
of
initiatives
to
to
help
them.
F
Find
their
spot
in
our
city,
I
I
myself
have
been
contacted
by
folks
who
are
are
interested
in
that
and
sean
keithley
was
was
kind
enough
to
meet
with
me
and
folks
over
soon,
and
so
I'm
just
that
was
their
question.
F
Do
we
have
anything
planned
in
the
city
of
boise
to
to
help
those
folks
get
a
good
get
a
good
foot
going
here
in
boise?
I
know
that
one
of
the
things
that
was
shared
with
the
gentleman
that
we
spoke
with
was
a
difficulty
in
getting
support
from
from
banks,
and
they
did
allude
to
the
possibility
of
discrimination,
and
so
that's
something
that
that
if
we
haven't
already
considered
that
we
may
want
to.
G
H
C
Sanchez
I'll
just
add
one
thing:
when
we
come
back
to
you
for
the
expenditure
of
the
new
covid
recovery
funds,
we
plan
to
continue
our
outreach
to
those
businesses
to
get
the
money
to
the
folks
who
need
it
most
in
the
short
term
and
then
I'll
follow
up
with
you
on
the
answer
to
the
long
term
strategies.
A
So
there's
a
lot
of
work
to
be
done
on
developing
something
like
that.
Once
we
know,
if
we
can
and
then
how
much
we
would
have
to
do
it.
F
Thank
you,
madam
mayor,
and
just
to
be
clear.
The
folks
that
reached
out
were
they're
talking
about
bringing
new
business
to
boise,
and
they
just
happen
to
be
folks
from
underrepresented
populations.
So
thank
you.
Thanks.
G
Thank
you,
madam
mayor.
Also.
Second,
what
council
president
claig
brought
up
earlier,
it's
great
to
see
all
the
progress
that's
been
made
in
the
steps,
and
I
think
it's
pretty
impressive,
with
all
that's
been
going
on
that.
So
much
has
been
done
and
it's
great
to
see
some
of
the
next
steps
ahead.
I
know
we're
getting
a
vision,
zero
presentation
here.
Pretty
soon
I
had
the
opportunity
to
talk
with
brie
a
little
bit
earlier
today,
indiana.
G
So
I'm
excited
to
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
canal
pathways
in
the
near
future,
and
it
sounds
like
that's
on
the
radar.
A
couple
things
I
wanted
to
bring
up
related
to
the
to
the
economic
development.
G
The
businesses
and
I
brought
this
up
with
council
president
I'd
love
to
just
make
sure
that
it's
on
the
record
is
that
if
more
funding
does
come
available
for
small
business
grants,
I
would
love
for
us
to
be
able
to
take
a
look
at
the
existing
list
of
businesses,
who've
applied,
who
maybe
didn't
make
that
first
cut,
but
already
have
stuff
on
record
as
well
as
maybe
some
businesses
who
made
some
small,
clear,
clerical
errors
that
maybe
made
it
so
that
they
weren't
able
to
get
those
funds.
G
I
think
some
of
them
there
may
be
a
chance
spent
funds,
thinking
that
they
were
going
to
get
relief
and
then
didn't,
and
so,
if
we
could
just
prioritize
taking
a
look
at
that
and
examining
it.
I
think
that
that
would
be
wonderful
and
then
my
last
thing-
and
I
know
that
courtney-
you
already
brought
up-
that
there
are
so
many
initiatives
going
on
this-
can't
quite
possibly
cover
everything
in
this
little
bit
of
time.
G
But
I
know
that
we
started
some
work
last
year
with
dei
training
in
the
dignitas
agency,
and
I
haven't
heard
anything
for
a
little
while
about
that
one
and
since
it
intersects
with
so
much
of
the
other
things
that
we
do,
I
would
love
at
some
point
just
to
kind
of
get
an
update
and
touch
base
on
where
we're
at
there
and
kind
of
the
efforts
along
those
lines.
But
thank
you
for
the
presentation.
It's
exciting
to
see
all
this
stuff.
C
Madam
mayor
council,
member
halliburton,
you
will
get
a
presentation
regarding
the
dei
initiative
soon
we're
waiting
to
wrap
up
the
first
phase
of
that
work.
So
we
can
present
to
you
what
we
learned.
What
we
know
now,
where
we'd
like
to
go
so
just
know
that,
and
then
also
I
hear
you
on
prioritizing
on
the
small
business
loans,
the
folks
that
have
already
submitted
applications
and
that's
our
intent,
we're
just
waiting
on
treasury's
guidance.
So
we're
sure
we
can
do
what
we
want
to
do.
A
And
we
think
am
I
right.
We
think
that
that'll
be
in
three
or
so
weeks
would
be
the
soonest
that
we
would
get
the
guidance
and
and
then
we'll
have
more
clarity
and
opportunity
for
staff
to
start
thinking
about
how
to
how
we
use
that
guidance
to
build
out
programs
and
then
we'll
come
back
to
you
all
with
information
and
for.
A
Is
that
it
all
right?
Thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much.
Okay.
Next
up
we're
going
to
jump
right
into
the
vision,
zero
introduction-
and
this
is,
if
I,
if
I
remember
correctly,
this
is
the
first
time
that
we've
discussed
is
a
council
vision
zero.
So
I
think
some
of
this
is
going
to
be
a.
This
is
what
vision
zero
is
about
and
then,
of
course,
on
either
side
of
me.
H
So,
first
what
is
vision
zero?
It
is
a
multiple
just,
multi-disciplinary
approach
to
end
traffic
related
fatalities
and
serious
injury,
and
it
does
so
by
combining
principles
of
engineering,
design,
safety
enforcement
and
education
aimed
at
all
road
years
of
users
to
ensure
a
space,
a
safe
space
for
everyone
using
the
road.
H
It
is
not
business
as
usual,
it's
a
real
systemic
change
and
it
goes
down
to
even
redefining
traditional
language
used
to
discuss
traffic
crashes.
There's
an
emphasis
on
calling
them
crashes
because
they're
not
necessarily
accidents,
they
are
preventable
and
you
can
institute
systemic
change
to
make
this
prevention
possible.
H
So
two
common
examples
that
you
might
have
seen
before
that
are
examples
of
how
road
design
and
enforcement
can
compensate
for
where
humans
might
fail.
If
you
think
about
a
long
stretch
of
highway
interstate
highways,
where
you
have
drivers
who
get
sleepy
or
get
distracted
on
the
side
of
the
road
or
sometimes
in
the
center
line,
you'll
get
a
bumpy
strip
of
asphalt,
a
rumble
strip
and
that
wakes
the
driver
up
and
alerts
them
that
they're
veering
off
their
lane.
H
H
Thinking
about
where
we've
seen
vision,
zero
policies
before
our
transportation
action
plan
that
we
released
in
2016
had
vision,
zero
identified
as
a
way
we
could
achieve
safety
for
all
it
was
adopting
a
vision.
Zero
framework
was
one
of
eight
program-based
steps
that
was
recommended.
We
could
take
to
help
create
safer
roads,
adopting
a
vision.
Zero
policy
was
also
a
recommendation
to
improve
our
bicycle-friendly
city
status.
H
And
this
is
along
lines
of
what
courtney
mentioned
earlier.
We
don't
do
anything
by
ourselves
and
we
have
a
huge
role
in
supporting
our
transportation
partners
and
their
efforts
to
work
towards
these
things,
and
we
have
a
couple
here
locally
that
have
begun
similar
efforts
in
the
name
of
vision,
zero,
including
itd,
compass,
achd
and
there's
a
real
database
component
to
this-
that
I
think
we
have
a
space
to
support
through
a
task
force.
H
Across
the
country
you
can
see
on
this
map,
there
are
quite
a
few
cities
that
have
taken
to
adopting
vision,
zero
policies
and
some
of
the
common
themes
that
arise
from
these
other
cities
or
how
they
implement
this.
They
have
steering
committees,
task
forces,
work
groups
that
guide
the
effort
and,
in
the
multidisciplinary
nature
of
vision,
zero
you'll
see
not
just
the
cities
but
they'll
get
public
health
officials
involved.
They'll
get
universities,
researchers
involved
to
bring
bring
all
those
different
approaches
together
to
achieve
zero
deaths
and
injury
on
our
streets
or
on
the
streets.
H
They'll
also
have
an
action
plan
that
breaks
out
some
short
and
long
term
goals,
similar
with
some
of
the
things
we
identified
in
our
tap
in
2016.
There
are
some
really
quick
ones.
We
can
do
around
building
up
our
data
capacity,
but
then
longer
term
advocacy
for
intersection
improvements
and
things
like
that.
Another
fun
thing,
a
lot
of
these
places
do
is
have
a
safety
pledge
for
businesses
and
residents
to
encourage
all
road
users
to
really
know
the
rules
of
the
road
and
how
to
interact
with
each
other
in
the
space.
H
Where
are
we
now?
If
you
look
at
the
map
over
here,
you
can
see
this
was
from
tap
in
2016,
but
half
of
boise's,
bicycle
and
pedestrian
collisions
occur
on
a
quarter
of
our
street
network.
So
there
are
some
high
injury
locations
that
that
exist
here
in
boise
today
for
cyclists,
but
itd
reports
from
their
crash
data.
There
were
12
fatal
crashes
on
boise
streets
in
2019
and
125
serious
injuries.
H
So
in
the
next
couple
slides
talking
about
our
approach
and
next
steps,
we
could
take
in
this
slide
here,
focusing
on
a
task
force,
building
a
diverse
group
of
stakeholders
that
includes
transportation
professionals,
health
professionals,
research,
community
members
and
more
so
that
we
really
have
an
idea
of
how
we
can
incorporate
all
of
these
uses
to
enhance
that
systemic
change.
That
we'd
be
looking
for
to
drive
towards
zero
death
and
injury.
H
We
develop
leadership,
collaboration
and
accountability
and
be
a
real
partner
in
collecting
and
analyzing
data
for
those
other
transportation
partners.
Also,
sharing
these
goals
with
us,
so
next
steps
would
be
staff
bringing
forward
a
formal
policy
adoption
to
acknowledge
that
we
want
to
take
on
this
effort
and
then
establishing
that
task
force
of
key
internal
and
external
stakeholders.
H
D
Thank
you
brie,
everyone.
I
hope
this
is
a
good
introduction
to
you
about
the
difference
between
vision,
zero
and
some
of
the
other
things.
We've
already
begun
doing.
Just
to
reiterate
that
I
think
bri.
If
you
could
go
back
to
that
map,
that
shows
where
all
the
injuries
are
a
vision,
zero
approach,
rather
than
looking
at
a
specific
location
where
there
might
be
an
injury
or
a
fatality,
looks
at
that
crash
and
analyzes.
D
Why
it
happened
and
then
looks
across
the
system
and
says:
where
else
would
that
kind
of
a
crash
be
likely
to
happen?
Where
else
do
we
have
those
same
characteristics
and
that
same
design,
and
rather
than
fixing
that
one
location
where
the
crash
occurred,
figures
out
a
strategy
to
look
at
all
of
the
locations
across
the
system
and
make
all
of
them
safe
and,
as
bee
said,
it's
not
an
approach
that
assumes
that
you're
going
to
prevent
all
crashes?
The
approach
is
designed
to
prevent
serious
injury
and
death
when
a
crash
occurs.
D
G
And
mayor
bri,
I'm
wondering
what
the
conversations
have
been
with
achd
about
vision,
zero
up
to
this
point
and
then
a
couple
follow-up
questions.
H
Sure
I
think
I
have
this
in
one
of
my
slides,
but
achd
has
a
complete
streets
policy
which
is
different,
but
it's
still
kind
of
in
in
the
name
of
incorporating
all
users
in
the
street
and
then
they
also
have
some
enhanced
equipment,
training
and
safety
standards.
Acknowledging
that
incidents
can
sometimes
happen
around
road
construction
and
detours,
and
things
like
that.
G
G
You
know
we've
had
joint
sessions
with
them
before
it
would
be
interesting
to
see
how
something
that,
like
that,
could
look
after
either
we
adopted
or
before
we
adopted
and
started.
Having
those
conversations,
certainly
that's
you
know
one
of
our
our
big
players,
since
our
control
is
somewhat
somewhat
limited.
I
really
appreciate
council
president
clegg
helping
push
this
forward.
I
actually
had
the
ability
to
present
at
a
vision,
zero
conference
in
new
york
city.
G
It
was
must
have
been
seven
years
ago,
and
it
was
right
after
a
guy
named
james
kelly
was
hit
on
federal
way
and
it
was
a
right
turn
on
red
situation
where
the
driver,
you
know
looked
one
direction,
didn't
expect
to
see
somebody
moving
fast
on
a
sidewalk
on
a
bicycle,
the
other
direction
and
he
was
hit
and
killed
earlier
that
day.
G
I'd
actually
helped
him
work
on
his
bike
over
the
boise
bicycle
project,
so
that
one
was
pretty
personal
and,
like
council
member
clay
said
preventable,
and
I
think
that
that's
really
one
of
the
key
things
here
and
council
pro
tem
sanchez
often
reminds
me
how
much
language
matters,
and
it
really
is
that
idea
of
talking
about
things
as
a
crash,
something
that
we
can
prevent
versus
an
accident,
something
that's
not
preventable.
G
So
I
know
council
president
clegg-
and
I
we
work
really
really
hard
to
avoid
that
that
use
of
the
word
accident,
knowing
that
like
what
are
the
factors
at
play,
and
how
can
we
really
address
those?
So
I
I
couldn't
be
more
excited
about
this
and
and
I'm
confident
that
this
might
be
something
that
we
could
pursue
with
achd
and
some
of
our
other
agencies.
Thank
you.
D
J
D
I'd
just
like
to
invite
other
council
members,
if
you
have
ideas
about
the
kinds
of
things
you'd
like
to
see
in
the
resolution
that
we
pass
or
the
kinds
of
interests
that
you'd
like
to
see
on
the
task
force,
work
with
bree
and
you
know
we'll
get
something
written
make
sure
that
everyone
has
a
good
chance
to
preview
it
before
it
comes
back
to
us
and
and
then
hopefully
get
that
resolution
on
for
approval
at
some
near
future
date
and
move
forward
with
the
task
force.
If
you
all
agree.
K
I
think
that
sounds
like
a
great
process
for
moving
forward
council
president
clegg
and
also
I
think
this
is
a
great
initiative.
I
was
just
curious
where
the
idea
originally
stemmed
from
was
it
from
you
council,
president
clegg,
or
did
it
come
from
multiple
sides
and
yeah?
I
was
just
wondering
where
it
stemmed
from,
but
I
appreciate
this
effort.
100.
A
I
thought
that
was
a
council
member
asking
a
question.
I
did
not
recognize
that
as
a
council
member's
voice,
I'm
so
sorry,
okay
was
go
ahead.
I
I
thought
that
I
thought
that
you
were
answering
the
question.
No
okay
go
ahead:
bree,
not
america!.
H
Council
member
thompson,
the
idea
did
originally
abroad
in
the
90s
and
adoption
has
kind
of
swept
through
the
united
states.
Over
the
last
couple
decades
we
had
vision,
zero
policy
mentioned
in
our
2016
tap,
as
I
mentioned,
but
I
think
council
president,
you
might
be
able
to
speak
to
a
little
bit
how
we
got
here
today.
D
H
D
Go
ahead
as
councilmember
halliburton
stated,
he's
been
interested
in
this
for
a
long
time.
I've
known
about
that
in
my
work.
In
my
day,
job
I've
worked
a
lot
on
on
initiatives
around
this,
and
most
recently
was
appointed
to
a
champions
institute
at
transportation
for
america
and
after
having
gone
through.
That
institute
really
decided
that
it
was
time
to
ask
if
it
was
time
for
action
here
in
the
city
toward
this.
So
for
me
it's
been
multifaceted
and
it's
been
over
many
years.
A
A
So
it's
here
today
and
maureen
currently
is
leading
our
housing
team,
but
also
has
historically
managed,
as
the
city
has
provided
staff
to
manage
the
our
path
home
partnership,
which
is
a
group
of
50
organizations
with
a
shared
vision
of
preventing
and
ultimately
getting
rid
of
homelessness
in
our
community,
but
providing
all
the
services
that
are
parts
of
that,
and
so
maureen's
here
today
to
talk
about
that
partnership.
The
goals
that
the
partnership
has,
of
course,
the
work
that
the
city
is
doing
with
it
and
is
happy
to
take
any
questions.
A
M
Absolutely
madam
mayor,
thanks
for
having
me
and
thanks
for
having
me
council,
I
know
there
has
been
a
lot
of
recent
interest
in
homelessness.
So
I'm
glad
to
be
here
today
to
provide
a
partnership,
wide
update,
that's
before
you
in
august
and,
as
you
all
know,
our
path
home
works
with
households
that
are
experiencing
what
we
call
literal
homelessness,
so
they're
sleeping
in
emergency
shelter
or
on
the
street
to
get
those
households
back
into
housing.
And
then
we
also
work
with
households
that
are
at
imminent
risk
of
experiencing
homelessness.
M
And
then
I
would
just
add
here-
and
the
mayor
made
mention
of
this-
that
we
do
have
a
great
many
number
of
partner
agencies.
We
have
a
pretty
significant
number
of
those.
In
fact,
that
said,
many
of
those
partner
agencies
are
ancillary,
as
opposed
to
kind
of
core
or
essential
partners
whose
mission
really
is
to
serve
those
experiencing
homelessness.
M
So
among
those
core
providers
are
those
essential
providers
and
any
partner
agencies
that
are
federally
funded.
They
must
accept
referrals
from
coordinated
entry
so
from
our
path
home
connect,
and
they
must
use
our
data
system
that
homeless
management
information
system
hmis,
and
then
we
enter
into
a
series
of
partnership
agreements
with
those
agencies,
specifically.
M
Madam
mayor
and
council,
you
are
likely
well
versed
in
these
shared
values,
but
they
did
just
want
to
take
a
minute
to
kind
of
reiterate
them
here.
First
of
all,
the
partnership
is
housing.
First
oriented.
We
really
strive
that
to
have
every
conversation
that
our
client-facing
staff
has
has
a
problem
solving
focus.
M
The
second
sort
of
important
kind
of
core
value,
if
you
will
is
that
we,
the
partnership,
is
trauma
informed
and
that
really
comes
down
to
being
client
centered
meeting
people
where
they
are.
The
fact
of
the
matter
is
that
trauma
results
in
physical
changes
to
your
brain
and
homelessness
in
and
of
itself
is
a
trauma
experience.
M
So
when
people
are
actively
experiencing
trauma,
they
don't
necessarily
respond
in
such
a
way
that
you
or
I
might
or
in
such
a
way
that
you
or
I
might
find
logical,
so
staff
really
try
to
adjust
the
services
that
we
are
delivering
in
such
a
way
that
clients
can
respond
to
those
services
and
also
engage
in
those
and
then.
Finally,
this
collaboration
piece
really
can't
be
overstated.
There's
just
too
much
to
do,
and
it
takes
a
committed
professional
staff
across
agencies
to
carry
out
what
needs
to
be
done.
M
The
presentation
that
I
want
to
run
through
with
you
today
is
not
data
heavy.
I
can
share
some
of
our
dashboards
with
you
via
memo
or
or
come
back
and
provide
some
additional
data.
We
are
working
on
a
public
facing
dashboard
right
now.
That
would
be
kind
of
a
simplified
version
of
some
of
the
data
monitoring
tools
that
we
use
and
that
really
kind
of
shows
what
our
system
performance
looks
like
right
now.
Also,
we
will
have
our
2021
point
in
time.
M
M
I
should
also
note
here
that,
while
695
households
entered
the
system
in
2020,
the
average
number
of
households
on
the
queue
in
2020
was
835.,
so
those
are
households
that
would
have
been
carryover
from
the
year
before
but
kind
of
that
that
gap,
if
you
will
between
how
many
are
on
the
queue
and
the
number
that
the
partnership
has
the
capacity
to
refer
to
a
supportive
housing
program
kind
of
gives
you
the
sense
of
the
capacity
of
the
system,
the
amount
of
demand,
if
you
will
versus
the
amount
of
resources
that
we
have
to
intervene.
M
That
said
kind
of
closing
that
gap,
especially
if
we
can
harness
this
moment
that
we're
in
now
is
really
something
that
we
can
do.
If
we're
intentional
and
we're
targeted
and
then
just
kind
of
a
note
on
the
number
of
people
active
in
the
emergency
shelter.
We
we
get
a
lot
of
questions
about
a
precise
number
around
those
that
are
experiencing
homelessness.
M
We
more
or
less
know
how
many
are
in
shelter
each
night,
but
the
entries
and
exits
in
and
out
of
our
data
system
and
in
and
out
of
shelter
get
a
little
bit
tricky,
because
this
is
the
transient
population,
their
situation.
Situations
change.
Excuse
me
as
they
navigate
those,
for
example,
they
might
be
able
to
pay
for
a
few
nights
of
a
hotel
and
then
we'll
see
them
again
in
childhood.
M
So
what
we
kind
of
try
to
do
or
what
we
do
try
to
do
to
arrive
at
that
estimate
around
how
many
people
are
experiencing
homelessness
on
the
given
night
in
in
boise
and
then
ada
county
is
one
to
look
at
that
point
in
time.
Count
trend
to
look
at
the
number
of
people
that
are
active
in
emergency
shelter
over
a
period
of
time
and
then
three,
how
many
households
that
we
have
on
the
r
path,
home,
connect
queue
and,
of
course
again
that
number
fluctuates.
It
changes
quite
frankly
daily.
M
M
As
of
last
thursday,
the
amount
of
assistance
paid
to
date
is
3.6
million
to
almost
800
households,
so
most
of
that
is
going
to
boise
residents,
while
over
500
of
those
households
are
boise
residents,
and
this
has
really
accelerated
the
number
of
households
that
we
can
serve
through
a
homeless
prevention
lens,
and
it's
also
allowed
us
to
make
more
than
a
one-time
one-time
payment
so
that
we
can
better
better
stabilize
families
and
then,
in
terms
of
our
kobe
19
response,
we've
maintained
the
lease
at
the
hotel.
M
There
have
been
no
recent
covet
positives,
but
we're
continuing
to
serve
medically
fragile
and
families
there.
As
of
yesterday,
we
had
58
family
members
and
17
medically
fragile
individuals
and
then,
of
course,
continue
to
serve
others
in
the
congregate,
shelter
setting
or
through
our
street
outreach
team
if
they're
sleeping
outside
and
then.
M
Finally,
as
it
relates
to
covet
19
we're
really
in
the
middle
of
a
concerted
effort
to
get
folks
vaccinated,
we're
using
the
johnson
and
johnson
one
dose
and
then
just
leaning
on
our
shelter
staff,
our
outreach
staff
and
also
using
some
ambassadors
that
are
people
experiencing
homelessness
to
help
message.
The
safety
of
the
vaccine.
M
You
have
seen
a
version
of
this
slide
before
when
I
was
before
you
in
august,
and
certainly
we
see
a
pattern
here
in
terms
of
new
entries
into
the
system.
A
lot
of
them
are
just
that.
That
being
said,
we
have
a
little
bit
of
a
dichotomy
where,
on
the
one
hand,
we
have
people
experiencing
long-term
and
it
may
be
episodic,
but
long-term
homelessness
with
a
group.
That's
really
could
be
considered
new
to
the
experience.
M
The
emergency
rental
assistance
program
is
really
helping
here.
I'm
going
to
be
curious
to
see
kind
of
what
that
source
of
funds
does
to
this
trend.
M
The
last
time
I
was
here
or
before
you
I
spoke
with
you
all
about
where
you
talked
a
bit
about
universal
prevention
versus
targeted
prevention,
and
universal
prevention
certainly
has
its
own
merits,
but
it
doesn't
necessarily
prevent
literal
homelessness
because
people
are
resilient
right.
They
have
resources
that
they
can
draw
upon.
So
you
don't
necessarily
see
someone
go
from
a
lease
immediately
to
shelter.
Something
happens
in
between.
M
So
although
the
emergency
rental
assistance
program
is
a
universal
approach,
there's
also
a
significant
amount
of
funds
available.
So
I'm
going
to
be
curious
to
see
its
impact
on
our
numbers
experiencing
homelessness,
and
then
I
would
also
just
offer
that
while
we
have
the
emergency
rental
assistance
program
up
and
running
for
the
time
being,
that
still
leaves
the
gap
population.
So
we
still
don't
have
a
solution
necessarily
for
households
that
are
not
in
the
lease
and
there
may
be
an
informal
housing
situation.
M
So
what
we're
trying
to
work
on
is
how
we
can
get
them
onto
a
lease
and
then
leverage
the
emergency
rental
assistance
program.
Obviously,
the
availability
of
units,
the
vacancy
rate,
those
are
those
are
challenging
here
and
then
that
kind
of
the
last
thing
I'll
say
is
as
it
relates
to
first-time
homelessness
and
homelessness.
Prevention
is
that
they
just
want
to
acknowledge
again.
M
That
homelessness
is
something
we
can
solve
for
in
boise,
and
it's
critical
that
we
do
that
now,
because
there's
a
formula
brewing,
if
you
will
where
in
which
a
boise
is
growing,
the
treasure
value
is
growing
b.
Rents
are
increased,
increasing
excuse
me
c
vacancy
is
low,
so
this
is
the
formula
that
we
need
to
recognize
and
respond
to
right
now
and
take
some
big
steps
forward
to
solve
this
now
and
inspire
the
community
support
that
we
need
to
do
that.
M
So
how
are
we
responding,
then?
What
big
steps
are
we
taking
the
campaign
to
end
family
homelessness
is
one
of
those
big
steps
forward,
and
I
I
would
point
out
here
too,
that
the
system
changes
that
we're
making
around
this
initiative
will
benefit
all
populations,
including
adult
only
households,
covid
delayed
our
planning
timeline
about
four
to
six
months,
but
the
leadership
cabinet
first
met
in
may
we've
been
doing
a
lot
of
education
with
them.
M
I
think
we
kind
of
walked
through
this
last
time,
but
it
essentially
means
that
we,
the
the
demand,
meets
our
capacity
to
serve
folks,
so
we
recognize
and
acknowledge
that
we'll
never
be
able
to
prevent
every
episode
of
homelessness.
This
also
means
that
we
will
still
need
shelter
in
some
capacity,
but
that
we
can
continue
to
evolve
what
shelter
is
and
what
services
are
provided
there.
M
So
the
campaign
has
three
primary
focuses:
direct
assistance
to
families
through
rental
assistance
and
case
management.
What
we're
calling
streamline
solutions
this
is
set
to
launch
this
piece
or
focus
area
is
set
to
launch
july
1..
It's
pretty
exciting,
because
we
have
all
of
the
major
players
at
the
table
to
include
the
department
of
health
and
welfare,
2-1-1
and
navigation.
M
So
for
the
first
time
we
will
truly
have
one
number
to
call
for
anyone
in
a
housing
crisis.
You
know,
regardless
of
your
eligibility
or
whether
you're
in
a
shelter
already,
whether
you're
in
a
lease
doubled
up
in
a
hotel,
motel
and
then
we'll
have
we're
all
kind
of
teaming
up
to
have
one
triage
team,
one
problem
solving
team
and
then,
finally,
in
terms
of
boosting
our
housing
options
and
really
bringing
housing
first
units
to
the
market,
we
have
a
deep
and
acute
understanding
that
we
need
units.
M
Okay,
this
is
another
slide
that
you've
basically
seen
before
this
figure
here
was
actually
seven
percent
in
2020
that
the
take
home
really.
Is
that,
like
I
said
earlier,
most
clients
that
we
add
to
the
to
the
our
path
home
connect
queue,
do
not
receive
a
timely
intervention
from
our
path
home,
but
and
that's
a
capacity
issue
and
a
resource
issue.
But
when
our
path
home
does
have
the
capacity
to
intervene,
the
intervention
is
effective.
So
really
the
big
question
before
us
is:
how
do
we
expand
our
capacity
to
do
more?
M
The
corporation
for
supportive
housing
is
underway
in
their
work
to
create
with
us
just
such
a
plan,
and
they
are,
I
would
say,
the
national
expert
in
support
of
housing.
This
this
work,
this
gaps,
analysis,
financial
model
and
then
coupled
with
an
action
plan,
should
be
wrapped
up
in
the
late
spring.
M
So
in
the
next
couple
of
months,
and
then
we
continue
to
work
on
really
kind
of
pushing
with
and
advocating
with
the
division
of
medicaid
for
changes
to
the
state's
medical
medicaid
plan,
so
that
we
can
bill
for
support
services
under
that
state
plan
and
as
a
bundle.
M
The
earliest
that
this
is
likely
to
happen
is
july
of
next
year.
So
we've
kind
of
got
one
more
gap
year
before
we
really
can
sort
of
hitch
into
a
sustainable
fund
source
for
permanent,
supportive
housing
and
then,
lastly,
just
to
kind
of
give
you
a
sense
or
context
of
the
populations
that
we
that
our
path
home
works
with
most
of
the
families
with
children
on
their
queue,
qualify
for
or
need
what
we
call
rapid
rehousing.
So
that's
kind
of
time
limited
up
to
two
years
of
rental
assistance
and
case
management.
M
On
the
other
hand,
most
of
the
adult
only
households
qualify
for
or
need
permanent
supportive
housing.
That
being
said,
ideally
we'd
want
to
start
everyone
in
rapid
rehousing,
because
it's
actually
quite
hard
to
predict
how
anyone
experiencing
homelessness
will
do
once
they're
in
housing
and
a
lot
of
folks
really
surprise.
You
that
they
need
that
basic
need
met
and
then
really
can
do
can
do
quite
well.
So,
ideally,
we
would
start
everyone
in
rapid
rehousing
and
then
bridge
those
that
need
something
more
to
psh.
M
Okay,
a
couple
more
slides
and
then
I'm
happy
to
happy
to
take
any
questions.
These
are
you
know
a
couple
of
really
sort
of
salient
current
issues
of
interest
from
residents
in
particular,
and
also
from
some
media
inquiries.
So
we've
had
some
inquiries
about
the
martin
settlement,
our
pa.
The
our
path
home
executive
committee
used
a
handful
of
threshold
criteria,
including
that
the
proposed
use
of
funds
had
to
meet
the
terms
of
the
settlement.
M
So,
for
example,
applicants
applicants
for
these
fund
sources
had
to
serve
the
population
that
we're
talking
about
that
are
experiencing
literal
homelessness.
M
So
after
it
was
determined
whether
those
threshold
criteria
were
met
or
not,
the
executive
committee
moved
into
a
conversation
about
which
partner
agencies
are
essential,
which
partner
agencies
are
there
for
delivering
an
essential
service
and
delivering
that
service
right
now.
So
that
landed
the
committee
in
the
that
landed.
The
committee
excuse
me
to
vote
for
putting
the
shelter
piece
towards
interfaith
specifically
around
case
management.
M
Staff
salaries,
nutrition
and
transportation
needs
that
that
shelter
takes
on
and
then
the
supportive
housing
piece
of
the
settlement
went
to
the
housing
authority
in
their
capacity
as
the
partnerships,
psh
provider
and
then.
Lastly,
I
would
be
remiss
if
I
didn't
at
least
touch
on
all
of
the
conversation
and
consternation,
maybe
around
interfaith's
proposed
move,
and
they
want
to
be
clear
that
our
path
home
supports
re-envisioning,
shelter,
evolving
shelter
and
also
supports
ensuring
that
we
can
meet
the
demands
of
the
night
by
night
crisis,
because
we
can't
re-house
households
fast
enough
right
now.
M
M
What
we
need
today
isn't
necessarily
and
hopefully
isn't
what
we're
going
to
need
in
two
years
or
five
years,
and
it
would
certainly
be
our
path.
Homes
goal
that
we're
nimble
enough
or
agile
enough
to
respond
to
the
changing
needs,
and
I
think
kind
of
a
theme
of
what
I'm
hoping
to
convey
to
you
is
that,
if
we're
able
to
take
advantage
of
this
moment
in
time,
we
can
start
talking
about
doing
things
like
converting
shelter
to
housing
or
using
shelter
as
an
access
point
to
receive
housing.
Focused
services.
M
You
know
covet
19,
really
put
into
sharper
focus
that
we
have
to
thread
this
needle
and
both
provide
a
crisis
response
for
what's
happening
now
and
make
deep
investments
in
housing.
First
and
affordable,
achievable
housing
for
our
most
vulnerable.
M
So
because
of
or
at
least
in
part,
because
of
the
renewed
interest
in
homelessness
within
our
community
and
a
lot
of
the
questions
that
we've
been
receiving,
that
have
been
kind
of
hard
to
keep
up
with,
because,
frankly,
they're
they're,
quite
nuanced
community
engagement
has
put
together
a
plan
to
engage
directly
with
the
community
and
to
share
with
them
and
educate
them
around
our
plans
for
homelessness,
current
efforts,
future
efforts
etc-
and
this
is
the
calendar
that
our
community
engagement
team
has
put
together.
M
If
there's
questions
specifically
about
what
this
calendar
of
outreach
looks
like
and
what
we're
hoping
to
accomplish,
you
know
kind
of
through
each
of
these
avenues.
I
believe
that
juana
is
on
this
afternoon
as
well,
so
she
can
jump
in
and
answer
those
with
me.
F
Madam
mayor,
yes
go
ahead.
Thank
you,
madam
mayor.
Thank
you
maureen,
it's
good
to
see
you
and
thank
you
so
much
for
the
presentation
I
you'll
have
to
forgive
me.
The
work
you
do
is
so
important
and
I
need
to
get
up
to
date
on
the
terms
so.
B
F
Not
organic
for
me
yet,
but
they
will
be,
and
so
you
were
talking
towards
the
beginning
of
your
talk
about
the
the
two
approaches,
the:
what
was
it
the
universal,
oh
and
and
so
you
were
saying
that
on
its
face,
that
sounds
like
the
logical
way
to
go,
but
what
I
was
gathering
from
that-
and
I
just
want
to
be
sure,
I'm
interpreting
it
correctly.
F
M
M
So
what
I
want
to
try
to
point
out
to
mayor
and
council
is
that
there
are
a
lot
of
people.
There
are
a
lot
of
households
experiencing
housing
and
security,
and
what
we
want
to
do
is
try
to
connect
them
with
what
we
would
call
mainstream
resources
before
leaning
on
the
homeless
services
system,
to
provide
those.
M
So
historically,
we
haven't
spent
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
funds
on
homeless
prevention,
because
there's
this
there's
something
and
it's
different
for
every
household,
but
there's
something
that
happens
between
me
getting
behind
on
my
rent
and
that
moment
in
time
where
I
need
access
to
a
shelter
tonight
and
that's
really
where
the
homeless
services
system
plugs
in
now.
That
being
said,
we
have
this
opportunity
before
us
right
now
through
the
treasury
funds
that
are
supporting
the
emergency
rental
assistance
program
to
really
work
further
upstream
and
provide
additional
support
and
stabilize
families
and
individuals.
F
Oh,
thank
you
so
much
for
expanding
on
that
a
little
bit
so
that
we
can
understand
a
little
bit
better
maureen.
So
a
phone
call
I
I
was
just
on
right
before
I
hopped
on
to
our
work
session-
was
really
exciting,
with
a
lutheran
community
services
of
the
northwest
chatting
with
shirley,
and
I
about
that
that
gap
that
you're
talking
about
it's.
F
You
know
I've
been
discussing
it
for
the
past
couple
of
years,
just
the
more
personal
approach
to
this
in
having
folks
in
our
community.
I
know
they're
there,
people
who
would
very
gladly
open
their
homes
to
support
folks
who
are
needing
that
that
help
before
they
fall
over
the
edge
into
homelessness
or
housing
and
security,
and
I
know
for
myself
I
was
I've
learned
so
much
thanks
to
you
and
other
folks
on
our
staff-
and
I
remember
talking
about
my
own
family
and
how
my.
J
F
Opened
our
home
to
folks
who
were
needing
that
sort
of
help
and
and
that
it
wasn't
just
about
shelter,
but
it
was
about
how
to
access
other
services,
and
it
just
so
happened.
She
was
a.
She
worked
for
a
community
action
program,
so
she
knew
about
these
things.
So
I'm
really
excited
that.
We've
made
that
connection
with
somebody
in
the
community
who's
approaching
it
from
what
I
understand
from
what
jessica
ryan
told
us
today,
I
think
they're
going
to
start
in
earnest
april
1st,
so
it's
coming
up.
F
They've
already
got
six
host
families
who
are
willing
to
open
their
homes
and
support
folks
in
our
community.
So
I
do
believe
we
we
have
folks
who
are
who
are
totally
tapping
into
what
you
just
told
us
about.
You
know
I'm
so
excited
for
us
to
to
see
how
we
can
support
them
in
their
those
efforts,
but
that's
that
boise
kindness
that
we
know
exists
and
that
grace,
and
so
I'm
really
excited
to
hear
that
that's
part
of
our
plan
as
well.
Thank
you,
maureen.
I
Thank
you
so
much
marie
one
of
the
questions
that
I
had
that
I
just
don't
understand
has
to
do
with
changes
to
state
medicaid
policy,
and
I
understand
big
picture
that
it
has
to
do
with
how
funds
are
characterized
and
how
services
are
characterized
and
it
either
opens
or
closes
the
door
to
a
pretty
significant
amount
of
resources.
My
question
is:
is
that
something
we
need
the
legislature's
help
with?
Is
that
a
policy
call
for
the
governor's
office
and
his
like?
Where,
where
will
that
decision
be
made.
M
Madam
mayor
council,
member
of
agent,
thanks
for
asking
that
question,
there's
some
work
happening
within
a
work
group.
That's
been
convened
by
the
department
of
health
and
welfare.
Ultimately,
this
will
have
to
go
before
the
legislature.
M
The
key
for
us
is
to
get
what's
called
a
bundled
act
team,
so
assertive
community
treatment
and,
though
that
the
key
really
is
that
those
services
are
bundled
rather
than
having
to
get
reimbursed
as
a
one-off,
because
a
lot
of
the
services
provided
by
the
support
services
team
at
newpath
specifically
are
not
billable
right
now
under
medicaid.
M
So
the
plan
right
now
is
for
the
division,
the
division
of
medicaid
at
health
and
welfare
they're
undergoing
sort
of
a
review
of
what
the
state's
medicaid
plan
looks
like
and
are
working
on
some
revisions
to
that,
and
we've
just
really
been
advocating
for
hey
listen.
These
are
medicaid
eligible
residents.
They
most
of
them
are
enrolled
in
medicaid,
but
we're
challenged
by
billing,
given
the
services
that
they
need.
I
K
A
Mayor
councilman
thompson-
I
just
said
yes
to
the
council
president,
but
you
didn't
hear
me
because
I
just
nodded
and
you'll
be
after
elaine
go
ahead.
Thank
you.
D
Thank
you
maureen.
It's
great
to
see
you
thank
you
for
being
here
today,
really
good
information,
so
you'll
probably
not
be
surprised
that
I
want
more
details,
no
problem,
so
you
talked
about
in
the
beginning
the
number
of
people
that
are
experiencing
homelessness.
D
I
know
that
we're
waiting
for
the
analysis
from
the
corporate
corporation
for
supportive
housing
do.
We
know
where
those
people
fit
in
terms
of
needs
or
vulnerabilities.
Are
they
high
need
low
need?
Is
that
going
to
be
part
of
that
report
that
we
get
from
csh.
M
Madam
mayor
council,
president
clegg,
the
short
answer
is
yes,
we
do
have
a
very
good
idea
on
paper
of
what
those
households
needs
are
and,
of
course,
the
staff
that
are
client-facing
and
they're
working
with
those
households
and
working
with
those
individuals
certainly
have
a
really
a
really
good
idea
too.
We
do
an
assessment
of
each
individual's
kind
of
vulnerabilities
if
you
will
and
try
to
assign
a
score-
and
you
can
imagine,
there's
some
there's
room
for
error
in
that
right.
M
M
So
we
try
to
pair
that
vulnerability
assessment
with
the
length
of
time
that
they've
been
experiencing
homelessness
and
that's
how
individuals
and
families
are
placed
on
the
queue
and
then
there's
specific
eligibility
criteria
for
permanent
supportive
housing
versus
rapid
rehousing
by
and
large,
our
adult
only
households,
both
on
you
know,
through
eligibility
criteria
and
sort
of
the
spirit
of
what
pshs
qualify
or
are
eligible
for
psh,
and
it's
it's
kind
of
the
reverse
for
our
families
with
children.
M
D
Thank
you
I'll
look
forward
to
that,
because
I
think
that
will
help
us
play
into
you
know,
develop
a
strategy
for
what's
the
highest
priority,
what
we
can
help
with
the
most
early
and
I'm
so
one
other
question:
I'm
assuming
that
we're
using
our
path
home
and
the
coordinated
entry
to
provide
referrals
to
the
e-wrap
program
is
that
is
that
correct,
how's,
that
working.
M
D
Perfect
and
then,
if
I
understood
you
correctly,
the
I
can't
remember
what
you
called
it
triage
was
on
that
that
slide,
but
the
new
system
that
you're
creating
you're
trying
to
bring
not
just
those
already
experiencing
homelessness,
but
also
those
that
are
housing
insecure
into
a
common
database
is,
was
I
hearing
that
correctly.
M
My
mayor
council
president
clegg,
yes
by
and
large
so
right
now,
you
know
we
kind
of
have
to
put
you
in
in
a
box.
Are
you
sleeping
in
an
emergency
shelter
or
on
the
street,
or
are
you
in
the
hotel,
motel
or
doubled
up,
or
do
you
have
a
lease,
or
do
you
have
a
three-day
notice?
So
what
we're
trying
to
do,
because
we
want
to
be
trauma
informed,
is
say:
listen
if
I'm
a
mom
with
kids,
that's
in
any
kind
of
housing
crisis.
M
I
don't
want
to
have
to
call
four
five
six
places
to
figure
out
kind
of
where
I
am
in
line
which
resource
I'm
eligible.
For
so
what
we
want
to
do
is
streamline
all
of
that.
We
were
able
to
do
it
in
2017,
with
coordinated
injury.
If
you
are
experiencing
literal
homelessness,
now
we're
taking
that
a
step.
Further
anybody
experiencing
a
housing
crisis.
M
There
will
be
one
number
to
call
that
triage
team
and
problem
solving
team
will
receive
that
call
and
then
make
a
warm
referral,
a
warm
handoff
to
the
appropriate
place
so
that
we're
doing
that
leg
work
as
opposed
to
asking
the
household.
That's
already
experiencing
trauma.
That's
already
stressed
to
try
to
navigate
a
system-
that's
quite
frankly,
pretty
difficult
to
understand.
D
M
Madam
mayor
council,
president
clay,
what
I
might
suggest
is
that,
when,
or
as
the
corporation
for
supportive
housing
starts
to
put
together
their
work
product,
that
that
would
be
a
really
good
time
for
either
them
or
a
combination
of
them
and
me
to
come
back
to
you
and
say
kind
of
hey
here
are
the
strategies
here.
Very
specifically
is
the
need,
because
they're
working
on
the
highest
need
and
then
here's
the
action
plan
so
in.
M
D
Thank
you.
That
makes
sense.
I
guess
my
only
my
only
other
other
reaction
is
that
it
would
be
nice
to
understand
those
strategies
before
we
get
the
recommendation
on
what
the
strategies
might
be.
So
I
guess
I
was
suggesting
that
we
just
get
education
on
what
the
strategies
are.
Then,
when
those
come,
we
don't
have
to
have
that
discussion
a
second
time,
because
that
and
it
might
help
us
work
through
those
strategies.
So
we
can
work
on.
A
It
but
yeah,
let's
I'm
going
to
say
for
a
point
of
time,
because
the
two
more
council
members
are
in
the
queue
and
we've
got
five
minutes
that,
let's
take
that
offline,
I
think
it
we
could
work
out
something
with
maureen
and
that
presentation
have
a
longer
time
but
figure
out
in
advance.
If
there's
already
materials
or
something
can
be
prepared
easily
to
give
background
all
the
pieces.
D
K
Thank
you,
madame
er
maureen.
I
really
appreciate
this.
It
was
very
enlightening
for
me
and
I'm
looking
forward
to
seeing
it
unfold
come
the
july
launches.
I
believe
you
mentioned,
and
I
was
curious,
two
quick
questions.
I
have
heard
many
different
terms
used
to
describe
the
types
of
homelessness
folks
are
experiencing.
I
didn't
hear
chronic
is,
does
this
include
those
that
are
in
the
most
difficult
spot
of
all.
M
Madame
mayor
councilmember
thompson,
it
it
does
chronic
homelessness
has
a
really
specific
and
sort
of
technical
definition
associated
with
the
us
department
of
housing
and
urban
development.
The
heart
of
that
definition
is
that
that
people
have
been
experiencing
homelessness
for
a
long
time
longer
than
one
year
and
or
they've
been
experiencing
long-term
episodic
homelessness.
M
The
other
piece
of
that
kind
of
technical
definition
is
that
they're
there
they
also
have
a
disability
and
that
kind
of
gets
at
that
reference
to
their
level
of
vulnerability
and
their
level
of
need.
K
Thank
you
and
last
question
was,
is
I
saw
some
talk
about
ada
county
at
the
beginning,
but
I
couldn't
tell
is
this
a
boise-centric
policy,
or
is
it
one
that
you're
you're
working
with?
Is
it
an
ada
county
wide
strategy?
I
wasn't
sure
which
one.
M
Madam
mayor
council
member
thompson,
great
question:
our
path
home
serves
county-wide.
The
city
of
boise
is
the
lead
public
agency.
Catch
serves
as
our
our
path
home,
connect,
administrators,
our
coordinated
entry
administrator
and
then
specifically
with
ada
county
we're
partnering
with
them
in
three
ways.
One
is
on
the
campaign
to
end
family
homelessness.
M
One
is
on
the
emergency
rental
assistance
program
and
then,
lastly,
they
have
been
supporting
part
of
the
cost
of
the
support
services
at
newpath
community
housing.
G
Mad
mayor,
thank
you.
Thank
you
maureen,
so
I
guess
my
question.
I've
got
csh.
Their
website
pulled
up
right
now:
corporate
supportive
housing,
because
I
wasn't
super
super
familiar
and
I'll
do
a
little
bit
more
learning
there.
G
My
question,
I
guess,
revolves
a
little
bit
more
around
funding
because
it's
just
about
april
and
we're
going
to
be
talking
so
much
about
budget
going
forward
here.
I
know
that
we've
got
martin
k
settlement.
I
know
that
we've
got
money
that
we've
committed
to
addressing
homelessness.
I
know
that
we
probably
have
some
federal
aid
that
is
going
to
help
us
in
a
variety
of
different
areas
and
kind
of
like
council.
President
clegg
was
saying
with
these
different
strategies.
G
I
would
love
to
know
how
funding
can
really
be
used
in
the
best
way
and
what
sort
of
way
boise
really
needs
to
be
using
its
funds
wisely
and
its
partnerships
wisely
kind
of
asking
ourselves
okay.
Well,
this
is
how
we
use
the
funding
last
year.
Did
we
go
in
the
right
direction
and
now
we've
got
a
new
set
of
circumstances
with
kovid
and
all
these
other
things?
G
How
can
we
make
sure
that
we're
investing
the
right
amount
of
money,
more
less
or
with
partnerships,
and
I
guess
so
my
question
then
would
be:
will
this
contract
with
csh
help
us
determine
some
of
that
funding
or
how
will
we
best
kind
of
determine
where
we
need
to
be
investing
dollars,
and
maybe
that's
too
long
of
a
question?
Yeah.
A
I'm
gonna.
Actually,
I
think
it's
a
great
question.
I'm
gonna
jump
in
just
quickly
with
a
quick
answer
and
then
ask
maureen
to
bring
back
more
detail.
If
I
give
something,
that's
not
accurate,
I
mean,
as
we
see
this,
the
recommendations
will
come
from
corporation
for
supportive
housing
with
the
counts,
and
so
then
we
know
and
can
see
the
need
that
we
have
in
the
community
and
then
maureen
will
bring
back
to
council
with
community
support
of
housing,
the
recommendations
and
strategy
and
from
there,
of
course,
our
path
home
has
funders
as
well.
A
So
it's
not
just
all
city
funded
the
county
funds,
there's
so
many
funders
campaign
to
end
family
homelessness.
It
has
a
goal
of
8
million
and
then
of
course,
we
have
federal
dollars
coming
in
so
maureen
and
her
team
are
looking
at
how
we
can
best
use
new
sources
of
funds
like
federal
dollars.
For
this
you
know
unusual
opportunity
and
then
use
the
funding
that
they'll
be
asking
us
to
approve
as
well,
and
so
I
imagine
that,
after
with
the
next
conversation
deeper
conversation,
then
there's
more
clarity
around
budget
as
well
with
treasury
guidance.
G
And
then,
if,
if
maureen
doesn't
have
anything
else-
and
this
is
just
super
fast-
I
know
there's
at
least
one
city
council,
member
who's
in
who's
in
the
the
room
tonight
and
other
folks
who
are
there
as
well?
Who
love
hearing
from
people
in
the
community
about
these
issues
and
what
their
thoughts
are.
I'm
sure
that
there
would
be
some
volunteers
if
there
was
a
possibility
of
being
part
of
some
of
those
community
discussions
as
well.
G
M
Absolutely
madam
mayor
council,
so
before
you
in
terms
of
the
ibc
is
a
request
really
to
move
three
new
positions
into
housing
and
community
development.
The
first
of
those
positions
would
be
a
housing
manager.
Historically,
housing
and
community
development
has
been
not
necessarily
narrowly
focused,
but
largely
focused
on
two
housing
and
urban
development
programs.
One
is
the
community
development
block
grant
and
one
is
called
home
and,
with
you
know,
sort
of
this
renewed
interest
in
and
urgency
really
in
bringing
affordable
housing
to
the
market,
preserving,
affordable
housing,
increasing
the
affordable
housing
stock.
M
What
we
want
to
be
able
to
do
is
expand
our
capacity
to
implement
those
initiatives,
so
the
first
fte
would
be
for
a
housing
manager
to
help
us
do
that.
The
second
position
would
be
to
add
an
fte
to
the
work.
M
I
just
walked
you
through
with
our
path
home,
so
we
have
a
vacancy
right
now
for
the
our
path
home
administrator,
the
role
that
I'm
still
filling
and
then
the
plan
would
be
to
add
a
second
our
path
home
coordinator
to
support
implementation
of
our
homelessness
initiative
specifically,
and
then
the
third
fte
is
a
project
manager,
project
coordinator.
So
housing
and
community
development
manages
a
lot
of
large-scale
housing
and
community
projects.
E
Yep
go
ahead.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
So
much
maureen,
and
I
know
that
this
is
a
huge
body
of
work
and
that
you've
been
handling
so
much
just
being
one
person
and
you
kind
of
answered
my
question
about
your
old
position
as
the
administrator
for
our
path
home,
because
that
was
one
of
the
questions
I
had
as
I
was
going
through
these
new
ftes,
because
adding
three
ftes
is
a
pretty
big
deal
mid-budget
year,
as
you
can
imagine,
and
shifting
those
funds.
E
Do
you
think
that
two
people
to
now
run
our
path
home
is
necessary,
or
do
you
think
that
you
know
getting
that
off
of
your
plate
into
an
administrator's
plate
might
be
enough.
M
Madam
mayor
councilmember
weddings,
my
my
dream
really
is
to
get
additional
support
for
our
path
home.
We've
got
some
major
major
initiatives
underway
and
have
some
work
before
us
include,
including
before
council,
in
terms
of
engagement,
outreach,
education
and
really
moving
that
needle.
So
I
would
like
to
see
both
there's
things
that
don't
get
done
because
the
administrator
of
our
path
home
it
has
to
be
responsive
to
so
many
partner
agencies,
upwards
of
50,
and
then
there
there's
work
left
on
the
table
right.
M
So
I
would
like
to
see
both
of
those
happen
and
I
think
it
will
help
us
kind
of
make
those
leaps
and
bounds
a
and
then
b
kind
of
harness
this
moment
that
we
find
ourselves
in
where
we
have
an
incredible
influx
of
dollars
and
we
absolutely
want
to
put
those
dollars
to
their
highest
and
best
use
braid
them
in
the
way
that
makes
the
most
sense
so
that
we
don't
look
back
at
on
this
moment
a
year
from
now
or
two
years
from
now
and
think
gosh.
We
missed
it
right.
E
Great
thank
you.
I
appreciate
that
and
the
other
question
I
had
was
around
the
housing
manager,
and
you
had
said
that
that
was
to
expand
the
capacity
expand
the
capacity
for
like
what
exactly
is
that
to
more
quickly
deploy,
affordable
housing
projects
like
the
one
at
franklin
and
orchard,
is
that
to
more
quickly
obtain
new
properties.
What
what
would
that
person
kind
of
be
charged
with.
M
Madam
mayor
council,
member
weddings,
both
of
those
things.
Yes,
the
the
current
grower
housing
program
manager
and
then
the
hud
administrator
would
report
to
this
housing
manager
and
the
housing
manager
would
really
have
the
responsibility
of
staying
up
and
sort
of
out
of
the
weeds,
making
sure
that
we
are
evaluating
new
tools,
researching
creative
solutions
to
housing
and
then
sort
of
expediting.
M
What
it
is
that
we're
able
to
do
through
grower
housing
and
the
hud-funded
programs
to
bring
to
increase
our
affordable
housing
stock,
preserve
our
affordable
housing
stock.
So
that
that
position
would
really
have
their
eyes
kind
of
above
the
the
detail
and
the
running
of
the
the
day-to-day
business.
To
make
sure
that
we're
staying
on
track
and
also
measuring
our
performance.
D
Else,
thank
you,
maureen
that
helped
me
a
lot
understand
these
positions.
My
questions
are
probably
for
eric,
so
maybe
we're
going
to
answer
them
eric
it
sounds.
You
know
we
have
a
lot
of
money
coming
in
through
the
american
re
rescue
plan.
D
We
already
have
some
extra
work
with
e-wrap
we're
building
this
streamlined
system
and
coordinated
entry.
My
question
is:
it
looks
like
some
of
this
money
is
one
time.
If
we
determine
a
couple
of
years
down
the
road
that
that
maybe
we're
through
this
crisis,
how
will
we
reevaluate
what
the
ongoing
portfolio
of
work
need
is
in
this
in
this
arena,.
L
Madame
members
of
the
council,
I
might
speak
to
the
way
this
particular
interim
budget
change,
changes
funded
and
kick
it
over
to
maureen
to
to
respond
to
some
of
the
the
one-time
versus
ongoing
in
relation
to
the
housing
funds.
But
but
I
can
speak
to
these
requests
that
the
the
funding
sources
that
would
be
traded
to
support
these
housing
positions
were
ongoing
requests.
L
L
I
think
I
spoke
in
the
ibc
to
about
a
thirty
thousand
dollar
net
impact
which
we
would
build
into
the
fiscal
year.
22
budget.
D
L
A
All
right,
I
just
want
to
say
thanks
to
maureen,
for
the
presentation
on
our
path
home,
but
also
to
our
professional
staff
across
all
departments
that
have
worked
with
maureen
and
the
housing
team,
to
figure
out
how
we
can
fund
these
positions
or
transfer
position
positions
from
one
place
to
another.
Recognizing
the
need
right
now.
D
Madam
mayor
yeah,
I
move.
We
approve
the
interim
budget
changes
as
presented
for
march
30th
2021.
G
D
And
if
I
could
just
a
quick
comment,
I
think
we've
heard
today
that
we
do
have
a
plan
that
will
require
some
additional
resources,
especially
in
the
immediate
future,
to
manage
the
incoming
american
rescue
plan
funds
and
grow
the
capacity
of
our
path
home
on
coordinated
entry
and
streamlining.
D
I
Did
yet
to
that
I
would
only
add
that
it
really
sounds
like
there's
real
revenue
and
real
money,
real
money
moving
around
and
there's
just
not
enough
bandwidth
to
confidently
say
we're
gonna,
make
the
right
decisions
and
capture
that
and
do
the
best
we
can.
It
sounds
like
we
need
these
people
to
be
able
to
take
advantage
of.
E
Madam
mayor,
yes
go
ahead,
I
have
to
admit
that
I
came
into
this
presentation
today,
extremely
skeptical,
that
we
needed
three
new
full-time
positions,
because
I'm
incredibly
conservative
on
hiring
new
staff,
because
I
know
how
disappointing
it
is
when
we
have
to
let
people
go,
because
we
don't
have
the
budget
to
support
it,
which
is
something
that
governments
and
non-profits
alike.
I
think
struggle
with
constantly
but
maureen's
presentation
today.
Really,
you
know,
like
council
member
of
agent,
gave
me
the
the
comfort
that
this
is
really
an
opportunity
for
us.
E
It's
not
that
we're
just
trying
to
grow
government.
It's
that
we're
really
going
to
be
able
to
take
better
advantage
of
of
some
of
the
programs
and
really
help
people
in
our
community
who
have
been
struggling
very
hard
for
a
number
of
years.
E
E
K
D
Carries
trail
survey
is
sarah
on.
J
Sure
sure
thank
you,
madam
mayor
council
members,
just
as
sarah's
getting
this
ready
to
roll
just
to
set
a
little
context
very
quickly
on
what
we're
presenting
on
today
as
you're
aware
mayor
council,
we
did
a
survey
back
in
february
with
our
trail
users
to
really
get
a
feel
on.
J
You
know
what
we
want
to
do
from
a
management
perspective,
moving
forward
the
context
really
that
we're
trying
to
share
with
all
of
our
users
now
is
that
you
know
we
recognize
that
our
trail
system
has
changed
over
the
20
plus
years
that
we
have
had
this
consortium
of
the
rigid
river
system
that
is
managed
within
the
parks
and
recreation
department.
Together,
we
recognize
that
the
user's
needs
have
changed.
J
We
recognize
that
the
system
itself
overall
has
evolved
and
has
changed,
and
so
this
is
just
really
the
beginning
of
looking
at
opportunities
that
we
can
really
engage
much
more
deeply
with
our
users
and
continue
to
understand
what
those
changes
are
and
what
changes
they
seek
to
see
within
the
system.
As
we've
done
these
surveys
over
time,
we've
noticed
dramatic
changes
in
the
uses
by
our
users.
J
We
certainly
have
experienced
a
significant
increase
which
you'd
see
in
that
first
bullet
point
sarah's
going
to
cover
and
we
believe
the
pandemic
has
had
a
huge
impact
on
that
increase.
But
in
our
conversations
we
really
believe
these
are
a
lot
of
new
users
and
a
lot
of
users
that
maybe
are
using
a
lot
more
in
the
system.
We
don't
believe
they're
gonna
subside
and
go
away
significantly
when
the
pandemic
decreases.
J
So
you
know
we
really
need
to
prepare
moving
forward,
as
we
recognize
that
we
have
issues
with
dogs
that
we
have
issues
with
bike
and
ped
conflicts
on
the
trails
that
we
really
need
to
to
dig
deep
and
talk
to
our
engage
with
our
users
to
really
come
up
with
a
management
strategy.
That
is
going
to
be
something
that
we
can
be
nimble
with
in
moving
into
the
future
and
and
really.
J
Survey
is
about
in
our
presentation
to
you,
mayor
and
city
council.
Members
is
really
to
talk
about
some
pilot
programs.
We
would
like
to
that.
We
would
like
to
roll
out
at
some
point
in
the
month
of
april
and.
J
It,
but
we
did
the
survey
in
february
and
then
we
actually
did
a
follow-up
survey
with
the
results
of
the
survey
to
our
users
just
to
let
them
know
what
the
results
were
and
then
also
gain
feedback
on
what
our
thoughts
were
on
the
partner
or
excuse
me
on
the
pilot
program.
So
we
feel
like
we
have
got
gathered
a
lot
of
great
information
and
so
I'll
turn
it
over
to
sarah
now
to
walk
quickly
through
this.
L
A
N
Great
thanks,
doug
good
evening,
mayor
council,
sarah
arkle
boise
parks
and
rec
open
space
division.
I'm
here
today
representing
the
rich
rivers
partnership
as
the
city
leads
that
partnership,
which
includes
other
four
other
agencies
that
own
land
in
the
foothill
public
agencies.
So
the
and
the
cert
survey
that
we're
going
to
be
covering
the
feedback
that
we
received
through.
N
That
survey
was
initiated
through
a
virtual
public
meeting
where
over
500
people
participated
in
learning
about
what
registered
rivers
is,
and
some
of
the
challenges
and
opportunities
that
we
have
with
the
trail
system
moving
forward.
It
was
a
long
form
survey
about
19
questions.
It
had
great
response
over
4
400
folks
participated.
N
What
we
are
trying
to
do
is
respond
to
changing
use.
I
think
we
all-
probably
all
those
of
us
who
participated
in
trail
use
over
this
last
year,
saw
a
pretty
dramatic
increase.
We
are
in
the
last
year,
looking
at
three
times
the
amount
that
of
trail
use
mental
visits
that
we
saw
in
2019.
N
So
it's
a
good
time
to
check
in
with
users
and
make
sure
that
we're
still
providing
the
service
and
providing
them
with
the
experience.
They're
seeking
so
good
news
is
most
folks
are
very
satisfied
or
satisfied
with
the
trail
system,
most
of
the
concerns
and
the
dissatisfaction
related
to
increased
use,
increase
conflicts
with
different
user
groups
and
trail
damage.
N
So,
as
doug
mentioned,
we
did
go
out
with
a
follow-up
survey
that
just
closed
yesterday
for
a
couple
of
items
and
I'll
address
those
as
we
get
through
them.
N
But,
generally
speaking,
we
got
great
feedback,
great
engagement,
and
we
feel
pretty
confident
about
trying
out
some
some
new
strategies
with
the
support
of
our
users.
So
the
folks
who
took
our
survey-
this
is
the
initial
survey
since
we
have
it
it's.
You
know
a
larger
pool
and
more
time
to
go
through
the
data,
mostly
folks,
between
the
ages
of
25
and
65,
pretty
well
split
between
male
and
female,
slight
skew
towards
male
users.
N
The
majority
of
folks
who
took
our
survey
are
on
foot,
but
I
would
like
to
note
that
that
mountain
biking
as
a
primary
use
is
steadily
increasing,
so
where
three
or
four
years
ago
we
were
in
a
low
30
percent
that
has
has
continued
to
increase,
and
I
think
that
follows
anecdotal
experiences
and
feedback
that
we've
we've
all
been
experiencing.
N
So
we
have
asked
these
questions
in
my
time
with
the
city,
we
asked
them
in
2015
and
then
again
in
2018
and
there's
a
significant
difference
in
the
responses
that
we're
getting
each
time
in
2015
and
2018
folks
were
not
in
favor
of
seeing
changes
with
regard
to
dog
policies
on
trails
in
the
foothills,
and
that
is
not
the
case
now,
as
you
can
see,
53
50,
almost
54
percent
of
our
respondents
want
us
to
look
at
heavily
used
trails
and
determine
better
enforcement
or
education
policies
so
that
that
we're
doing
a
better
job
managing
dog
use.
N
So
we're
working
right
now
with
our
partners
to
try
and
identify
where
those
trails
might
be.
We
don't
have
any
specific
changes
for
you
to
consider
at
this
point,
but
I
do
want
to
note
that
this
is.
This
is
a
different
direction.
Folks
want
us
to
manage
dogs
in
a
different
way
than
they
have
in
the
past,
so
we
are
working
to
see
if
we
can
hire
a
animal
enforcement
officer.
That's
specific,
specifically
focused
on
the
foothills
and
trail
heads
within
the
foothills
right
now.
N
There's
a
handful
of
animal
enforcement
officers
that
are
responsible
for
all
parts
and
all
trail
heads
and
we're
getting
the
the
feedback
here
from
from
residents
that
they'd
like
to
see
us
focus
more
specifically
on
trails
and
trailheads
same
with
trail
damage.
This
is
again,
you
know
a
dramatic
change.
We
have
seen
steady
increase
in
concern
about
trail
damage
and
steady
increase
in
trail
damage
over
the
last
two
three
years
as
our
use
increases
and
we
have
to
educate
new
users
but
we're
seeing
an
overwhelming
support
at
almost
88
for
enforcement.
N
This
is
again
something
that
we're
going
to
need
to
investigate
and
figure
out
how
we
can
do.
We
did
a
pilot
trail
closure
program
in
2017
and
2018
for
table
rock.
It
was
marginally
successful.
We
continue
to
be
challenged
to
reach
people
prior
to
them
getting
in
their
car
and
getting
to
the
trailhead,
and
then
trail
conditions
can
change
hourly.
So
managing
that
trail
closure
was
unsustainable,
so
we'll
have
to
think
through
how
we
might
respond
to
this
feedback.
N
Okay
and
I'm,
I
please
feel
free
to
speak
up.
Madam
mayor
council
members,
if
you
have
any
questions
as
I
move
through
this,
if
it
makes
sense
to
address
them
in
the
moment,
otherwise
I
will
just
continue
to
move
forward
and
we'll
address
questions
at
the
end.
Madam.
N
Madam
mayor
council,
member
agent,
if
I
understand
you
correctly,
you're
wondering
if,
if
private
property
owners,
if
we've
connected
with
them
on
some
of
these
issues,
and
yes,
we
we
do
weekly,
thankfully,
due
to
well-written
easements,
we
have
the
ability
to
manage
the
trails
in
a
way
that
works
with
private
property
owners
and
also
works
with
our
users.
So
that
will
be
an
ongoing
discussion.
N
The
bulk
of
the
trail
system
is
on
blm
land
and
so
that
when
we
start
talking
about
policy
considerations
and
changes
in
management
policies,
our
federal
partners
are
going
to
be
real,
really
key
in
in
those
discussions
as
well.
Does
that
answer
your
question.
I
I
think
my
question
is
longer
and
more
involved
than
we
have
time
for
here.
So
yeah
yeah,
you
answered
it.
Thank
you
so
much.
N
You're
welcome
councilman
burbage
and
I'm
happy
to
talk
about
that
offline,
so
I
am
still
discussing
feedback
we
received
from
the
survey.
The
first
piece
was
just
policies
we
related
to
dogs
and
muddy
trails
or
trail
damage.
The
next
piece
we're
going
to
be
talking
about
is
feedback
related
to
management
strategies.
So
we
asked
folks-
and
these
are
some
questions-
we've
asked
them
in
the
past
as
well.
When
we're
adding
new
trails,
do
you
want
us
to
consider
creating
single-use
trails
and
again,
you
know
we're
seeing
dramatic
changes
in
the
feedback.
N
The
support
for
single-use
trails
continues
to
grow
in
2018.
When
we
asked
this
question
there
was
66
percent
support
for
this
strategy
and
now
we're
looking
at
74
percent
support.
N
We
it's
something
we're
going
to
need
to
keep,
consider
and
keep
keeping
our
minds
as
we
as
we
build
new
trails,
moving
forward
again,
adding
new
trails
in
the
future.
Should
we
create
directional
trails,
and
in
this
sense
what
we
mean
is
one
direction,
so
every
user
is
traveling,
either
clockwise
or
counterclockwise
in
a
loop,
or
only
uphill
or
only
downhill.
N
Obviously
that
is
going
to
depend
on
the
trail
itself
and
where
it
sits
within
the
ecosystem
of
our
trail
system
as
to
whether
or
not
it
is
a
useful
strategy.
But
what
we
were
trying
to
do
was
sort
of
put
these
options
on
the
table
for
people
to
weigh
in
on
and
so
again
seeing
support
for
a
change
in
management
strategy
on
new
trails.
N
So
with
that
in
mind,
we
asked
our
users
okay,
but
what
about
existing
trails?
Would
you
support
the
ridge
to
rivers,
partnership,
implementing
pilot
management
strategies
so
something
that's
short
term
that
we
can
try
out
on
selected
trails
with
the
goal
of
reducing
user
conflict
and
improving
user
experience?
A
lot
of
the
feedback
that
we
get
is
there's
blind
corners
throughout
the
trail
system,
and
so
I
I
it's
hard
for
me
as
a
user
to
know.
If
I'm
going
to
be
safe,
there's
a
mountain
bike
or
an
equestrian
coming
around
the
trail.
N
We
also
have
seen
a
lot
of
concern
about
increased
use.
So
we
asked
these
folks
who
took
our
survey.
Do
you
want
us
to
try
something
different,
something
we've
never
done
before
and
overwhelmingly.
The
answer
was
yes,
83
percent
of
the
folks
who
took
the
survey
and
they
are
a
self-selecting
group
of
trail
users-
want
us
to
try
something
different
for
a
short
period
of
time.
N
So
within
this
was
a
fairly
rich
data
set,
so
I
have
summarized
it
the
best
that
I
can
within
this
presentation.
So
there's
clearly
going
to
be
a
lot
of
opportunity
for
follow-up
discussion
and
I'm
happy
to
do
that,
but
here's
a
high-level
view
of
the
management
strategy
feedback
that
we
received
and
then
I'll
get
into
specifics
per
trail
in
the
next
following
slides,
lower.
We,
our
team,
came
up
with
a
handful
of
suggested
areas
where
we
may
try
pilot
strategies.
N
N
Polecat
bucktail
and
around
the
mountain
were
2
3
and
4
respectively.
When
we
ask
them
the
type
of
management
strategy
we
should
implement
in
a
pilot
program
on
these
trails.
Feedback
was
a
bit
mixed,
which
makes
sense
because
they're
the
folks
who
are
taking
this
survey
are
users,
not
necessarily
managers
right,
we
asked
them.
Would
you
like
us
to
try
an
even
versus
odd
day
strategy
or
that
directional
trail
strategy
and
in
some
cases
we
needed
a
little
bit
more
information
and
a
little
bit
more
clarity
as
to
that
feedback?
N
The
goal
was
really
for
clarification
on
lower
hulls,
gulch
and
bucktail
specifically,
and
then
a
third
question
just
related
to
user
experience,
and
should
the
city
be
taking
a
more
of
a
leadership
role
in
finding
technical
mountain
bike
opportunities
in
the
foothills,
and
so
that
was
the
follow-up
survey
that
closed
yesterday
and
we
received
over
2000
responses.
N
N
N
Obviously,
there
would
need
to
be
a
robust
education
and
outreach
effort
to
help
folks
understand
that,
on
even
days
of
the
month,
lower
holds
gulch
trail
would
be
closed
to
downhill,
mountain
bike,
use
open
to
all
other
uses
and
on
odd
days
of
the
month,
lower
hulls,
gulch
trail
would
be
downhill
bike
only
so
the
feedback
on
this
strategy
was
was
close
enough.
It's
over
a
majority
of
folks
who
want
to
see
us
implement
this
and
try
it
out.
We
asked
this
question
basically
again
in
the
survey
and
got
very
consistent
results.
N
So
here's
just
a
map
for
those
of
you
who
need
some
orientation.
The
foothills
learning
center
is,
let's
see
if
you
can
see
my
right
here.
Hopefully
you
can
see
my
cursor
in
yellow
is
lower.
Hulls.
Gulch
trail
again
be
closed
to
downhill,
mountain
bike
cubes
on
even
days
of
the
month,
and
only
downhill
mountain
bike
use
on
odd
days
of
the
month.
N
There's,
as
you
can
see,
a
lot
of
other
trail
opportunities
in
the
area-
and
this
is
in
our
in
the
feedback
that
we
received
from
folks,
both
anecdotally
in
the
comments
and
also
in
the
quantitative
data.
This
solution
is
the
best
to
serve
all
the
people
who
want
to
enjoy
this
trail.
It
has
some
technical
features
on
it
that
are
unique
to
the
system
that
mountain
bikers
really
want
to
experience,
and
it's
close
in
there's
a
lot
of
folks
who
want
to
hike
it
with
their
families
and
not
be
concerned
about
downhill
mountain
bike
use.
N
Moving
on
to
pole
cat
loop
trail,
which
was
the
second
priority
because
of
its
configuration
in
our
trail
ecosystem,
we
can
provide
a
directional
experience,
so
a
one-way
loop.
N
As
you
can
see
in
yellow
that's
pole
cat
loop,
it
would
be
a
counter-clockwise
direction
with
an
out
and
back
opportunity
preserved
for
folks
who
don't
want
that
longer
trail
for
that
first,
half
mile
again
supported
by
the
community
with
the
majority
of
users
around
the
mountain
trail
same
strategy.
It
is
a
loop,
so
it
would
be
all
users
traveling
counterclockwise.
N
N
And
finally,
buckhill
trail
or
excuse
me
bucktail
trail.
This
one
was
a
little
bit
more
complicated.
It
was
one
we
went
out
and
asked
for
clarity
about
in
that
second
survey.
N
We
had
originally
asked
folks
if
they
would
like
to
separate
use
on
bucktail
trail
and
have
one
trail
for
downhill,
mountain
bikers
and
another
for
uphill
folks,
equestrians
and
foot
traffic.
The
answer
was
yes.
We
wanted.
When
we
went
back
into
the
field
to
see
what
might
be
a
possibility,
it
became
clear
that
the
only
option
would
be
to
create
a
new
trail
for
foot
traffic
only
and
keep
the
existing
bucktail
trail
for
downhill
mountain
biking.
So
that
was
why
we
went
out
and
asked
for
clarity
on
that
trail
and
we
got.
I
think.
N
Let
me
just
find
my
notes
here.
I
think
it
was
84
support
for
that
strategy.
So,
in
this
map
you
can
see
the
existing
buck
tail
trail
in
yellow
and
then
the
new
trail
in
dashed
green.
So
the
way
we
are
envisioning
implementing
this
pilot
strategy
would
be
uphill.
Mountain
bikers
will
use
central
ridge.
All
users
can
use
central
ridge,
downhill,
mountain
bikers
will
be
separated
onto
bucktail
trails.
N
Where
the
new
trail
can
be
foot
traffic
coming
down
or
going
up,
so
this
is
the
only
pilot
management
strategy
where
we
would
have
a
permanent
change.
We
would
have
a
new
trail
on
the
system,
but
it
would
you
know
we
can
always
revisit
how
we
manage
that
new
trail
based
on
the
feedback
that
we
received
during
the
pilot
program.
Time
frame.
N
So
our
a
few
final
thoughts
and
then
and
then
I'll
open
it
up
for
questions
and
thank
you
for
your
patience
tonight.
Hopefully
I
did
not
move
too
quickly
through
this
information.
N
We
are
in
the
process
of
working
with
community
engagement
right
now
on
a
communications
plan,
signage
and
continued
engagement
plan
and
exit
strategy.
Should
we
need
it.
This
is
all
very
new
to
us
to
the
partners
and
to
our
users.
We
are
highly
acutely
aware
of
that.
We
want
to
make
sure
we're
as
clear
as
possible
with
people
in
terms
of
guidance
that
we
are
taking
an
educational
approach
and
continuing
to
be
open
to
additional
feedback
so
that
we
can
determine
if
the
pilot
program
is
being
successful
at
different
points
in
its
implementation.
N
We
did
we
we
plan
to
work
with
our
our
trail
rangers.
We
have
15
of
them
right
now,
they're
folks,
that
are
high
level
volunteers.
They
wear
a
jersey,
they
go
out
onto
the
trails
and
they
act
as
ambassadors,
not
just
for
a
happy
trails
campaign.
N
Other
etiquette
issues,
navigation,
they're
out
on
the
trail
offering
themselves
as
a
resource.
They
have
no
enforcement
authority.
So
we'll
be
working
with
them
to
gather
feedback
about
the
effectiveness
of
the
program,
we're
also
looking
at
follow-up
short
surveys
throughout
the
course
of
the
implementation
interval
so
that
we're
getting
good
feedback
from
our
users
as
well.
I
do
anticipate
we'll
get
a
lot
of
feedback,
so
I'm
trying
to
make
sure
that
we
have
the
tools
in
place
to
identify
decision
points.
N
N
You
can
anticipate
seeing
more
about
st
luke's.
His
general
generously
donated
twelve
thousand
dollars
for
construction
of
this
trail
and
clearly
it's
something
that
folks
want
to
see
happen
and
then
my
my
final
thought
about
the
response.
N
As
I
mentioned
earlier,
we're
seeing
steady
increase
in
mountain
bike
use
as
a
primary
mode
of
recreational
experience,
and
I
think
we've
got
some
opportunities
based
on
this
feedback.
89
percent
of
the
folks
who
took
the
second
survey
want
us
to
find
opportunities
to
improve
and
increase
directional
trails
with
technical
features
for
mountain
bikers.
N
Boise
has
become
a
outdoor
tourist
destination
due
to
our
wonderful
trail
system
and
highly
accessible
open
space
and
wildlife,
and
some
of
the
changes
that
we're
experiencing
are
very
similar
in
other
parts
of
the
country
where
folks
are
showing
up
to
the
area
just
to
experience
their
trails,
and
so
as
we
continue
to
find
ways
to
better
manage
the
system
due
to
increased
use.
I
need
we
need
to
be
thinking.
I
need
to
be
thinking
and
our
partners
need
to
be
thinking
about
how
we
can
continue
to
provide
excellent
service
to
our
users.
N
And
with
that
I
am
happy
to
answer
any
questions
about
the
pilot
programming
or
any
of
the
feedback
that
we
received.
A
So
we've
got
five
minutes
max
because
we
have
a
very
important
and
timely
legal
issue
that
we
have
to
discuss
in
executive
session.
So
it
looks
like
holly
wants
to
ask
a
question:
we'll
go
ahead
with
that,
then
I'm
going
to
ask
people
to
give
feedback.
The
piece
that
sarah
just
talked
about
is
something
that
they'll
come
back
to
us
with.
So
we
don't
need
to
belabor
that
piece
right
now,
which
I
find
very
important,
but
we
don't
need
to
belabor
it.
J
A
E
Thank
you,
sarah
thank
you
for
the
presentation.
It
was
great
seeing
the
results
we
had
talked.
I
think,
maybe
a
couple
years
ago
now
about
some
mountain
bike
teams
and
it's
mountain
bike
team
season
again
who
had
reached
out
to
me
asking
for
a
coordinated
calendar.
Has
anyone
have
have
they
kind
of
started,
coordinating
that
it
seems
like
that
could
be
a
really
great
solution
to
get
folks,
not
writing.
On
top
of
each
other.
N
Madam
mayor
council,
member
weddings,
we
thank
you
for
bringing
that
up.
We
had
had
a
couple
of
really
good
conversations
with
the
mountain
biking
teams
and
it
was
waylaid
by
covin
and
I
think
that's
something
we
need
to
pick
back
up.
We
ran
into
some
challenges
with
a
community
shared
calendar.
I
think
that
there's
some
solutions
just
with
our
existing
social
media
platforms,
wherein
we
need
to
just
be
asking
these
folks
to
post,
where
they're
going
to
be
and
when
because
sometimes
it
tr
it
changes
based
on
trail
conditions.
