Well,
the
mayor
and
Courtney
asked
me
to
run
a
tight
ship
today,
I'm
already
two
minutes
late,
so
so
far,
we're
kind
of
off
to
a
rocky
start,
but
I
think
we
can
catch
up
a
little
bit
and
hopefully
we
get
the
get
the
mayor
and
council
member.
Well,
it's
online.
We've
got
four
items
today
on
the
work
session,
plus
an
executive
session.
First
up
is
history
of
the
Boise
Valley
people
with
director
of
arts
and
history,
Jennifer
Stevens.
C
Thank
you,
members
of
council
and
mayor,
if
you're
on
line
as
we
anticipate
the
week
events
of
this
week,
the
return
of
the
Boise
Valley
people
and
I
share
some
of
the
tribe's
history
and
culture
with
you.
Today,
I
would
like
to
acknowledge
the
ancestral
cultural,
traditional
and
unseated
territory
of
the
Shoshone
Bannock
and
Northern
Paiute
people
on
which
we
are
meeting
today.
C
I'm
Jennifer,
Stevens
I'm,
the
director
of
arts
and
history
and
I
really
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
come
today
and
talk
to
you
a
little
bit
about
the
history
of
the
tribes
and
why
we
are
celebrating
this
this
week
and
why
the
tribes
are
coming
here.
So
the
agenda
will
just
be
a
brief
introduction
and
a
brief
timeline.
C
So
the
Boise
Valley
people
are
also
known
as
the
Nui
knee
and
I
may
not
be
pronouncing
that
correctly.
It's
a
Shoshone
and
plural
world
word,
meaning
human
beings
or
the
people.
They
are
speakers
of
Shoshone,
bannek
and
Paiute
languages
and
can
also
be
called
shoshonean
people.
These
languages
are
all
numic
languages,
part
of
the
uzo
Aztec
and
language
family
language
is
a
crucial
characteristic
that
ties
the
Shoshone,
bannek
and
Paiute
peoples
together.
Language
remains
today
a
very
important
way
of
being
as
one
Shoshone
member
described
it.
C
The
language
itself
is
an
important
component
of
their
culture
and
remains
alive.
Today,
their
languages
are
all
called
numic
languages
and
they
are
part,
as
I
mentioned,
of
the
uto
Azteca
language
family.
You
can
see
on
the
graphic
here
and
instead
of
seeing
the
graphic
I'm
seeing
councilwoman
woodings.
So
hopefully
you
can
look
on
your
own
screens
and
identify
that
that
this
particular
language
family,
extended
South
into
Mexico
and
other
parts
of
Central
America.
C
I
do
not
know
councilwoman
woodings.
Can
you
see
the
presentation.
C
Appear
that
was
for
Courtney's
benefit.
The
language,
of
course,
didn't
originate
as
a
written
language,
but
as
an
oral
tradition,
and
in
recent
years,
Idaho
State
University's
anthropology
department
has
worked
with
the
tribes
to
create
a
written
language
from
the
oral
tradition.
This
is
a
way
that
they
can
help
keep
the
language
alive
and
thriving
through
the
education
of
young
people,
so
the
numu
people,
as
all
of
these
people
are
called
share.
Many
traits
the
Shoshone,
Bannock
and
Paiute
means
that
there
is
some,
however,
overlap
and
tradition
and
subsistence
ways
of
life.
C
Nevertheless,
because
we
were
talking
about
three
groups
that
shared
this
similar
language,
they
also
share
many
common
traits.
So,
first
with
regard
to
social
structures,
members
of
these
groups
lived
in
highly
mobile
microbans.
They
were
very
small,
and
that
was
because
the
lands
of
the
Great
Basin
as
won't
surprise,
you
couldn't
really
support.
Large
groups
of
people.
Bands
were
typically
no
more
than
20
people
comprised
of
family
members.
The
nuclear
family
was
usually
the
structure,
and
that
was
the
primary
social
unit.
C
Scholars
often
characterize
the
societies
as
having
gender
parity.
Interestingly,
due
to
their
specialized
roles
within
their
groups,
all
of
those
roles
were
critical
to
survival,
both
the
men's
and
the
women's
neither
was
socially
Superior.
So
women
typically
gathered
Roots
nuts
seeds,
berries,
prepared
all
the
foods
produced,
the
clothing
built
and
maintained,
shelters
and
reared
the
children.
Men,
on
the
other
hand,
hunted
and
defended
their
communities
from
others,
as
well
as
participating
in
raids
on
other
groups.
C
So
a
lot
of
it
was
really
local
dependent
in
Winter
the
bands
gathered
in
larger
and
more
stationary
groups,
although
usually
no
more
than
50
people,
so
that
they
didn't
put
undue
pressure
on
fuel
and
Water
Systems.
The
winter
groups
were
typically
made
up
of
two
to
three
related
families
who
dispersed
together
to
favored
camping
spots.
C
There
were
some
differences
among
these
New
Mexico
speaking
groups,
most
of
those
came
from
climate
and
the
systems
that
resulted
from
that
that
I
just
mentioned,
for
instance,
in
the
southern
part
of
the
Great
Basin,
you
found
Paiute
people
in
southern
Nevada
who
gathered
pinion
seeds.
C
So
these
tribes
live
in
these
places
that
are
identified
here
on
the
slide
up
at
the
top.
Today
they
are
alive
and
well,
they
are
practicing
their
traditions
and
although
they
were
involuntarily
removed
to
these
reservations,
it's
critical
to
recognize
that
they
remain
a
living,
breathing
culture,
a
set
of
cultures,
continuing
to
celebrate
and
practice
their
Heritage
and
living
in
the
communities
you
see
here.
C
In
Idaho
today,
there
are
five
federally
recognized
tribes,
the
Coeur
d'alene
Kootenay
and
Nez
Perce,
all
of
whom
reside
up
on
the
Columbia
River
plateau
and
then
the
Shoshone
Bannock
and
the
Shoshone
Paiute.
Today
we're
going
to
talk
about
those
last
two
you're
going
to
hear
this
week
that
there
are
five
groups
that
make
up
the
Boise
Valley
people
and
they
are
all
descendants
from
those
last
two
groups
that
I
mentioned
today.
C
I'm
going
to
talk
about
these
groups,
the
northern
Shoshone,
the
northern
Paiute
and
the
Bannock
and
I'll
get
into
more
details
on
the
following
slides,
but
roughly
speaking,
the
northern
Shoshone
occupied
the
territory
on
the
upper
Snake
River,
which
is
today
around
the
Weezer
Givens
Hot
Spring
area,
Upstream
into
Eastern
Idaho,
and
then
all
of
the
lands
lying
south
of
the
Salmon
River.
The
northern
Paiute,
on
the
other
hand,
occupied
lands
in
Northern,
Nevada,
so
think,
Winnemucca
and
that
area
and
Central
and
Eastern
Oregon
such
as
Burns.
C
The
Bannock,
on
the
other
hand,
were
actually
originally
bands
of
Northern
Paiute.
They
migrated
after
the
introduction
of
the
horse
in
the
1600s
Eastward
and
eventually
mixed
with
the
northern
Shoshone
in
Eastern
Idaho,
and
accordingly,
they
are
grouped
together
in
what
we
call
the
Shoshone
Bannock
archeology
is
where
we
get
a
lot
of
the
information
about
the
ancient
civilizations
that
reside
on
this
land
before
European
contact,
and
this
map
shows
some
of
the
archaeological
sites.
C
I
apologize
for
the
poor
quality
of
this,
it's
hard
to
reproduce
some
of
these,
but
it's
these
are
archaeological
sites
and
the
artifacts
that
came
from
them
that
tell
us
and
help
us
draw
conclusions
about
the
past
and
who
occupied
the
lands
and,
of
course,
in
these
particular
cases.
We
know
from
the
artifacts
that
were
unveiled
in
these
places
that
the
people
who
lived
here
before
us
were
here
for
many
hundreds,
if
not
thousands
of
years.
C
So
again,
Boise
was
really
a
Borderland
between
these
people
and
because
of
the
proximity
of
Great
Plains
and
the
Columbia
River
Plateau.
The
culture
that
you
see
continuing
to
survive
here
and
be
celebrated
is
sort
of
a
hybrid
of
that
Basin
Great
Basin
and
Columbia
River
Plateau
culture,
as
well
as
a
composite
of
the
Great
Plains
and
Great
Basin
culture,
because
in
those
many
many
thousands
of
years
ago,
there
was
some
form
of
travel
people
traveled
on
foot
and
some
of
these
cultures
mixed.
C
So
here
and
I'll.
Try
to
use
the
pointer
I
just
want
to
point
out
how
some
of
this
worked.
So
what
you'll
see
on
the
screen
here
is
our
arrows
that
point
to
some
of
those
migrations
that
occurred
initially
on
foot
by
some
people,
but
then,
after
the
horse
was
reintroduced
in
the
late
1600s
and
into
the
early
1700s.
C
These
migrations
varied
more
broadly
and
more
frequently,
so
the
northern
Paiute
came
from
the
Oregon
and
Southern
I'm,
sorry
from
Northern
Nevada
and
came
up
this
way.
This
is
the
Boise
River
here,
and
they
came
up
this
way
to
fish
for
salmon
in
the
lower
Boise
River.
They
also
traveled
over
to
the
area
around
Fairfield
to
gather
Roots
in
in
the
canvas
area.
C
Additionally,
the
folks,
the
the
tribal
people
in
Eastern
Idaho,
hear
the
northern
Shoshone
would
travel
Downstream
to
the
area
below
Shoshone
Falls,
Shoshone
Falls
to
gather
salmon
as
well
to
fish
for
salmon,
because
Shoshone
Falls
was
actually
the
area
where
the
salmon
could
no
longer
naturally
pass
beyond
that.
So,
as
you
can
see,
the
the
different
numic
people
comprised
of
the
tribes
that
I
talked
about
that
I'm
talking
about
really
utilize.
This
whole
Southern
Idaho
area
and
mix
together,
frequently
foreign.
C
Oh
great,
okay,
Amanda
just
pointed
out
that
for
the
folks
online
I
can
now
use
the
pointer
with
the
mouse
and
show
you
where
I'm
pointing
to
so
apologies
for
the
mayor
and
councilwoman
weddings
for
not
knowing
that
you
can
see
here.
Oh
let's
see
where
am
I:
okay,
Northern
Shoshone
people,
so
some
of
the
characteristics
that
make
these
people
unique
within
the
larger
group
of
the
of
the
numu
people.
C
It's
important
to
know
that
again
they
shared
many
characteristics
and
the
the
term
Northern
Shoshone
is
something
that
Europeans
came
up
with.
So
as
we
talk
about
the
Shoshone
at
large,
there
is
the
Eastern
Shoshone
who
resided
in
the
Wind
River
area
in
Wyoming,
and
then
there
are
the
Western
Shoshone
who
resided
a
little
bit
further
south
of
us
and
into
Nevada
the
Shoshone
themselves.
C
Don't
recognize
differences
amongst
themselves,
so
the
northern
Shoshone
is
really
a
term
that
the
Anthropologist
came
up
with
after
contact,
but
they
did
in
fact,
like
I,
say
occupy
the
areas
north
of
Utah
today
and
do
in
fact
share
social
and
language
structure
with
their
with
their
kin
people.
So
you
can
see
on
this.
Next
slide
and
now
hopefully,
the
folks
online
can
see
this
that
the
Shoshone
people
are
the
Eastern
Shoshone
we're
here.
Shoshone
people
were
here
in
the
Wyoming
Wind
River
area
and
the
Eastern
I'm.
C
C
Actually,
let
me
go
back
to
that
last
slide,
one
second,
so
the
Shoshone
people
who
lived
in
the
Boise,
Payette
and
Weezer
river
valleys,
who
were
Northern
Shoshone,
occupied
an
environment
that
was
of
course
favored
by
Superior
Fisheries,
in
particular
a
mild
climate
and
good
grasses,
and
after
the
horse
was
introduced.
Those
grasses
really
provided
food
for
the
horses
and
allowed
greater
travel
throughout
the.
What
we
now
know
of
is
Idaho.
C
This
allowed
them
to,
in
fact,
travel
even
East
to
do
some
of
the
buffalo
hunting
before
the
Buffalo
went,
not
extinct,
but
basically
the
populations
declined
so
that
they
couldn't
be
used
anymore
for
food
and
they
also
traveled
up
to
the
Camas
Prairie
to
dig
more
Roots.
So
as
that
horse
became
an
important
part
of
their
culture,
there
was
much
more
travel.
C
C
Most
of
what
we
know
about
the
northern
Shoshone
comes
from
what's
known
as
the
late
period
and
archaeological
terms,
because
that's
really,
not
surprisingly,
we
know
the
most
about
the
most
recent
time
right.
So
we
know
that
their
language
was
numic
and
they
spoke
a
dialect.
That's
considered,
Central
numic,
as
opposed
to
when
I'll
talk
about
the
Paiute.
They
spoke
a
western
numic
dialogue
or
dialect.
C
C
The
Shoshone
had
many
similarities,
of
course,
between
themselves
and
a
lot
of
the
differences
that
you
see
between
the
different
groups
relied
on
entirely
local
things
right,
not
on
different
cultural
groups,
not
on
fixed
memberships
and
social
groups,
not
on
Chiefs
anything
along
those
lines.
There's
no
real
strict
territory
that
can
be
demarcated
between
the
northern
Shoshone
and
any
of
the
other
Shoshone
people.
C
But
importantly,
a
lot
of
the
differences
that
Scholars
did
identified
were
based
on
their
diets,
so
I'm
guessing
that
a
lot
of
you
have
heard
of
the
sheep
eaters.
That's
one
of
the
the
northern
Shoshone
people
that
have
been
identified
by
what
they
ate,
while
the
folks
in
the
Boise
River
Valley
were
actually
called
by
early
contact.
Folks,
the
Europeans
groundhog
eaters,
other
people
in
the
Snake
River
Valley,
were
called
salmon
eaters.
But
again
these
weren't
tribal
distinctions.
C
This
is
how
Europeans
identified
different
groups
that
were
traveling
throughout
this
area,
but
all
really
belong
to
this
new
MC
family
in
the
northern
Shoshone
foreign,
about
the
belief
systems
and
the
traditions
of
the
Shoshone.
Unlike
Europeans,
they
had
very
little
sense
of
private
property.
So
all
Shoshone
had
rights
to
subsistence,
yielding
natural
resources,
so
nothing
was
really
owned
by
an
individual
until
the
thing
was
taken.
So
if
you
hunted
a
buffalo
and
you
took
a
buffalo,
then
that
Buffalo
became
yours.
Of
course
there
was
a
great
deal
of
sharing.
C
After
that
time,
regardless,
but
in
terms
of
the
natural,
the
hunting
grounds,
the
fishing
grounds,
those
belonged
to
everyone
in
common,
they
had
a
deep
belief
in
visions
and
in
dreams,
the
efficacy
of
dreams
and
in
terms
of
their
world
view,
they
had
mythology
that
the
wolf
had
actually
created
the
solar
system
in
man,
and
he
was
seen
as
serious
and
benevolent
while
the
coyote
was
considered
a
trickster
and
that
the
disorder
I'm.
C
In
addition
to
that,
medicines
were
traditionally
used
to
implement,
match
Supernatural,
Powers
and
believe
it
or
not.
Everybody
in
the
entire
tribal
system
could
be
a
shaman.
There
was
a
category
of
Specialists
who
could
sort
of
gain
extra
special
power
with
Supernatural
powers
of
the
efficacy
of
these
plants,
but
in
any
case,
most
of
the
people
in
the
in
the
tribes
could
actually
could
practice
medicine
and
then,
with
regard
to
ceremonies,
some
of
which
I.
Imagine
that
you
can
go
see
this
weekend,
which
I'll
tackle
at
the
end
of
this.
C
These
were
mostly
dance
focused
and
they
were
simple:
they
reflected
the
nomadic
style
of
the
tribes
in
the
spring
they
held
a
dance
to
ensure
the
return
of
the
salmon,
and
then
they
held
another
one.
After
the
salmon
had
arrived,
they
did
blessings
as
winter
arrived
so
that
they
could
ensure
the
Bounty
of
the
season
and
survive
through
the
winter
and
such
so
I'll
move
on
to
the
northern
Paiute.
Next.
A
lot
of
this
is
going
to
sound
similar
again
because
they
shared
many
traits.
C
These
people
ranged
across
a
large
territory
ranging
from
Northeast
California,
Around,
The,
Pyramid,
Lake
area
in
Nevada,
Western
and
Central
Nevada
Central
and
Eastern
Oregon
and
Southwestern
Idaho.
This
is
also
a
numu
speaking
group
that
shared
many
characteristics
with
the
northern
Shoshone
again
from
the
same
time
period.
We
know
the
most
from
this
particular
era
and
just
like
the
northern
Shoshone.
This
is
not
a
term
that
was
used
by
the
people
themselves.
This
is
a
group
that
has
been
identified
by
by
white
anthropologists
or
european
anthropologists.
C
After
the
time
of
contact,
the
northern
Paiute
were
semi-nomadic,
they
relied
also
on
The
Spoils
of
hunting,
Gathering
and
fishing.
They
also
occupied
homes
or
districts
in
a
family
unit
very
similar
to
the
northern
Shoshone.
They
had
something
that
they
called
districts,
though,
and
the
divisions
within
those
districts
was
what
we
called
tabiwa
or
what
they
called
tabiwa.
C
That
word
was
used
to
describe
a
resume
of
preferred
camping
spots
again,
where
maximal
congregation
could
take
place
that
could
be
supported
by
the
land
for
their
subsistence.
The
social
structure
was
a
little
bit
different,
but
definitely
still
based
on
the
family
structure.
The
camp
group
could
be
a
little
bit
different.
The
family
was
a
major
part
of
that,
but
it
contracted
or
expanded
depending
on
the
Season
Winter
camps,
Believe,
It
or
Not
were
actually
less
cohesive
than
the
seasonal
migrations
that
they
had
and
they
were
really
more
task
oriented.
C
So,
for
instance,
if
there
was
a
big
task
like
an
antelope
drive
or
other
similar
big
hunting
needs,
it
really
wasn't
necessarily
done
in
a
family
unit.
It
was
done
in
bigger
groups,
so
it
was
a
little
bit
less
cohesive,
socially,
but
important
for
subsistence
reasons
politically
in
terms
of
their
structure.
The
northern
Paiute
had
senior
family
family
members
that
made
decisions
affecting
the
livelihood.
That
person
would
call
the
family
together,
pass
a
smoking
pipe
to
senior
members
and
together
they
would
come
to
a
consensus
facilitated
by
this
headman.
C
C
C
And
then,
finally,
with
regard
to
their
belief
systems
for
the
northern
Paiute,
the
dreams
again
were
quite
powerful
and
they
also
relied
heavily
on
Visions.
You
could
go
seek
a
vision
in
special
places
that
were
identified
a
lot
of
times.
Those
were
caves.
They
had
a
deep
belief
in
the
power
of
natural
objects
that
included
animals
plants,
Stones
water.
C
They
had
a
deep
belief
in
the
power
of
the
natural
world.
In
this
particular
case,
both
men
and
women
could
be
shamans.
They
acquired
power
and
strength
and
called
upon
that
strength
to
do
good
in
the
world.
That
was
really
their
their
role
and
their
ceremonies
also
consisted
of
dancing
in
prayer
and
I'm.
C
Going
to
end
the
history
piece
of
this
by
talking
about
the
Bannock
people
and
the
Bannock
people,
as
I
mentioned
earlier,
were
originally
part
of
the
northern
Paiutes
of
Eastern
Oregon,
and
it
was
only
after
the
adoption
of
the
horse
in
the
mid-1700s
that
the
Paiutes
traveled
to
the
East
and
joined
with
the
northern
Shoshone
of
the
Snake
River
plain
because
they
were
so
similar
in
language
and
traditions.
It
was
a
very
natural
joining
of
people
and
there's
very
few
differences
between
them.
C
If
you,
if
you
talk
with
them
today,
and
so
the
only
major
I'm
sure
that
there
are
other
differences,
if
we,
you
know,
had
three
hours
to
talk
about
this,
but
one
of
the
key
differences
with
the
bannex
is
that
they
were
of
the
three
tribes.
They
were
actually
the
one
that
had
a
more
rigid
and
that's
probably
too
strong
a
word,
But
A
system
that
actually
resembled
somewhat
of
a
chief
system,
and
so
they
had
stronger
leadership
Norms
than
the
other
two
tribes
that
we've
talked
about
today.
C
So
finally,
I
want
to
land
on
what
we're
doing
here
today
and
why
you've
asked
me
here
today
to
talk
to
you
a
little
bit
about
the
history.
So
in
2017
the
city
passed
a
proclamation
recognizing
the
five
tribes
and
in
2019
renamed
the
parks
that
was
formerly
known
as
Quarry
View
Park
into
Eagle,
Rock
Park
and
then
named
the
next
door.
Reserve
Chief
Eagle,
Eye
Reserve.
C
In
2019
the
same
year,
city
council
passed
a
resolution
to
Value
the
historical
and
contemporary
importance
of
the
indigenous
Boise
Valley
tribes
through
sustained,
inter
governmental
dialogues.
So
this
year
we're
honored
to
welcome
the
tribes
back
to
Boise
between
June,
8th
and
June
11th.
It's
the
14th
year
of
the
Gathering
and
we'll
be
celebrating
the
tribal
traditions
and
the
tribal
culture
on
Thursday
night
there'll
be
a
proclamation
on
City
on
City,
Hall,
Plaza
at
seven
o'clock
and
then
on
Friday.
C
The
mayor's
office
has
contributed
five
thousand
dollars
this
year
to
support
some
of
the
public
programming,
that's
going
to
be
happening
and
the
public
is
welcome
to
go
to
Eagle
Rock
Park
on
Friday
from
10
till
two.
The
rest
of
the
weekend
is
private.
The
cultures
and
the
tribes
stay
there
and,
and
you
know,
celebrate
their
culture
and
pass
on
oral
Traditions.
But
there
is
some
opportunity
for
us
the
public
to
to
join
them.
C
I
want
to
end
by
recommending
that
you
visit
the
arts
and
history,
creators
makers
and
doers,
and
this
will
be
available
to
you.
There's
a
link
in
this
presentation.
We
commissioned
the
arts
and
history
Department
commissioned
a
really
nice
interview
with
five
members
of
the
tribe
back
in
2019,
and
it's
written
up
in
creators
makers
doers
and
it's
called
still
indigenous
still
here,
and
it
talks
about
the
return
of
the
Boise
Valley
people
and
so
I
strongly
recommend
that
you
go
hear
them
in
their
own
words,
because
the
interview
is
transcribed
there.
A
Thank
you
director,
Stevens,
also
just
to
know.
We
both
have
the
mayor
and
council
president
on
the
call
as
well.
At
this
point,
any
questions
from
Council
Members
or
the
mayor.
A
Thank
you.
That's
not
needed.
E
We
see
this
this
trend
of
more
and
more
involvement
engagement
with
the
tribes.
It's
not
a
fair
question,
but
what
are
we
planning
next
year.
C
I
can
tell
you
that
we
at
the
department
of
his
arts
history
have
been
working
with
the
mayor's
office
closely
on
determining
exactly
what
next
year
looks
like
and
what
the
future
is
going
to
be.
Looking
like
and
I
I
think
that
it's
fair
to
say
that
there
are
many
people
in
the
organization
that
are
deeply
committed
to
following
through
on
that
resolution,
that
was
passed
in
2019
and
making
sure
that
there
is
continued
dialogue
and
celebration
of
the
people
here.
I
don't
have
specifics,
for
you.
C
I
think
that
the
tribes
themselves
have
been
working
with
other
members
of
the
community
on
the
possibility
of
putting
together
a
cultural
center.
I,
don't
know
what,
if
any,
the
city
City's
role
will
be
in
that.
But
I
know
that
the
intent,
certainly
from
our
department
and
I,
think
through
much
of
the
rest
of
the
organization,
is
to
continue
this
dialogue
and
to
continue
to
support
them
in
any
way
that
we
can
yeah.
E
I
would
be
personally
really
supportive
of
signaling
and
indicating
that
the
types
of
things
we're
doing
this
year,
welcoming
them
to
our
space,
the
park
respecting
privacy
and
distances,
particularly
the
language,
is
helped
passed
on,
but
also
engage
in
the
public
and
like
the
more
we
signal
that
that's
something
we
do
every
year
or
that
we
want
to.
You
know
embed
that
in
our
quote-unquote
culture
in
City,
Hall
I'd
just
be
really
supportive
of
that,
because
it's
so
easy
to
stop
doing
things.
E
I
mean
we
stopped
the
Fourth
of
July
parade
for
a
while
right.
So
anything
we
can
do
to
sort
of
entrench
this
in
our
habits.
I'm
fully
supportive
of
them
and
we'll
be
happy
to
help
with
whatever
I
can.
A
Not
only
do
I
think
this
is
great
in
preparation
for
The
Return
of
the
Boise
Valley
people,
events
that
we
have
later
this
week
and
this
weekend,
but
also
with
our
our
you
know,
once
in
a
multi-generation
zoning
code,
update
that
we've
got
going
on
next
week
when
we
think
about
land
use
and
the
way
that
we
use
our
land
I
think
it's
important
to
really
go
back
as
far
as
we
can
in
that
context,
and
so
I
appreciate
you
grounding
us
and
some
of
that
history
and
I
would
encourage
other
council
members
people
the
general
public
to
do
additional
research
as
well,
because,
like
you
said,
there's
a
30
minute
presentations
not
going
to
cover
very
very
much,
but
it
is
good
to
recognize
the
indigenous
people
of
this
Valley,
the
way
that
they
used
it
and
the
way
that
that
can
shape
how
we
use
it
going
forward.
A
So
thank
you.
Next
up
on
the
agenda
also
with
director
Stevens
is
percent
for
art,
and
we've
got
about
15
minutes
for
this.
D
All
right,
councilmember,
Holly
Burton,
thank
you.
I
just
wanted
to
real
quick,
shout
out
the
arts
and
history
department
and
all
of
the
work
that
they've
done
throughout
the
years,
and
particularly
note
that
turning
point
in
2019,
where
tillybub
and
her
team
really
put
in
a
lot
of
work
and
I.
D
Think
our
tribal
community
members
also
put
in
a
lot
of
work
to
deepen
that
relationship,
and
it's
been
really
great
to
see
going
forward,
how
that's
paid
dividends,
I
think
for
our
relationship
and
how
we
interact
going
forward
and
how
we
really
respect
the
original
inhabitants
of
our
Valley.
So
I
just
wanted
to
give
a
little
shout
out
as
someone
who
was
there
at
least
since
2019,
and
really
support
any
efforts
going
forward.
I
think
that
it's
been
a
tremendous
value
to
the
community.
Thank
you.
C
C
And
members
of
council
I'm
here
today
to
talk
about
the
revisions
that
we
are
proposing
to
the
percent
for
art
ordinance
you'll,
see
on
the
screen
that
this
is
a
slide
that
you
saw
back
in
April
when
I
was
here
the
first
time
to
discuss
this.
C
We
did
in
fact
come
to
you
back
in
April
to
discuss
our
suggested
proposed.
Revised
ordinance
and
I
really
appreciate
the
feedback
you
gave
us
on
that
night.
C
C
Many
things
have
happened
since
that
time,
since
the
percent
for
art
was
first
implemented,
several
things
have
transpired.
The
city
is
acquired
since
that
time,
more
than
a
thousand
pieces
into
its
collection,
including
the
painting
that
sits
behind
you
tonight,
as
well
as
of
course
sculptures
that
we're
all
familiar
with
the
department
of
arts
and
history
was
founded
in
2008.
Public
art
has
changed
significantly
since
that
time,
incorporating
temporary
art,
performance,
art,
writing
and
other
mediums.
C
This
slide
may
look
a
little
familiar
because
it's
a
it's
similar
to
one
that
I
presented
to
you
back
in
April
on
the
left
side
is
how
the
current
ordinance
is
written
and
on
the
right
is
how
we
propose
to
update
it
on
the
left.
You
can
see
that
the
permitted
expenses
for
the
one
percent
capital
expenditure
include
public
art.
The
language
in
the
ordinance
today
suggests
permanent
art
only.
It
also
does
not
recognize
the
current
Department
Mission
and
operations.
C
C
What
we're
proposing
today
is
to
update
the
capital
expenditure
flat
calculation
to
1.2
percent
and
including
those
permitted
expenses
are
more
broadly
defined,
including,
but
not
limited
to
performance,
art,
temporary
art
archives
and
artifacts.
All
nested
as
you'll
see
in
the
language
of
the
ordinance
the
proposed
ordinance
under
a
term
called
cultural
assets.
We
also
propose
to
be
able
to
use
those
dollars
to
be
spent
on
education,
project
management
and
planning.
C
Maintenance
includes
a
lot
of
things
when
you're
talking
about
a
collection
of
a
thousand
pieces
and
a
collection
that
continues
to
grow
each
year.
On
the
left
we've
listed.
What
some
of
those
things
are,
including
documentation,
record
keeping
inspections,
assessments,
exhibit
rotation,
which
is
an
important
part
of
Maintenance,
because
you
need
to
remove
the
art
from
the
walls
and
give
it
a
chance
to
sit
in
a
dark
place,
so
it's
not
harmed
by
sun
rays
and
that
sort
of
thing,
storage,
de-accession,
Etc.
C
Over
the
past
several
months,
the
care
and
conservation
team
in
arts
and
history,
primarily
olagio
laurino,
has
been
working
on
putting
together
a
detailed
five-year
maintenance
plan,
so
that
we
would
have
the
data
necessary
to
shift
our
funding
model.
We've
worked
with
the
budget
team
on
this
as
well,
and
you
can
see
on
the
right
column
that
the
team
has
assessed
the
entire
collection
and
broken
out
the
requirements
for
preventative
maintenance
into
three
categories.
One
is
the
annual
list.
Two
is
the
five-year
list
and
three
is
the
10-year
list.
C
C
We
can
you
know,
sort
of
do
away
with
this
model
and
move
towards
something
a
little,
a
little
more
I
think
in
line
with
how
we
do
the
rest
of
the
budgets
in
the
city.
C
So
what
I
did
was
to
demonstrate
on
this
chart.
The
change
that
will
occur
under
the
new
ordinance
in
Orange
I've
represented
the
full
1.4
percent
that
the
current
ordinance
permits
and
in
blue
I've
shown
the
reduced
calculation
that
will
occur
under
the
revised
ordinance.
Should
you
choose
to
pass
that
it
takes
the
calculation
down
to
1.2
percent
on
the
next
slide.
C
I
have
taken
the
same
slide
or
the
same
chart
on
the
previous
slide
and
added
a
third
column
in
Gray,
and
that
shows
the
1.2
percent
flat
calculation
of
the
capital
Improvement
projects
under
the
new
funding
model
and
then
added
the
average
annual
spend
for
the
maintenance
based
on
again
that
five-year
maintenance
plan
for
the
overall
budget.
So
you
can
see
that
there
are
some
years
where
it
would
be
a
little
more
over
the
last
10
years
and
many
years
where
it
would
be
less
as
well.
C
The
idea
being,
of
course
again
that
we
care
for
the
assets,
regardless
of
the
capital
spend
in
any
given
year.
C
Importantly,
the
funds
for
the-
and
this
is
true
today
as
well,
but
it's
spelled
out
more
clearly
in
the
in
the
new
ordinance.
The
funds
will
be
pooled
in
the
general
fund,
the
airport
fund
and
the
Public
Works
fund
the
default.
The
way
that
we've
written
the
guidelines
today
is
that
one
percent
will
remain
for
public
art
the
way
it
is
today
and
then
we'll
the
2.2
percent
will
be
for
the
other
costs
of
running
the
program.
C
C
We
will
report
on
all
selected
projects
that,
with
both
city
council
and
to
the
mayor
and
any
project
just
like
today,
that's
over
50
000
will
require
city
council
approval
to
begin,
and
finally,
we
will
of
course
be
following
our
plans
and
policy
guidelines.
As
we
do
today,
so
that
does
not
change
so
in
closing.
A
Thank
you,
director,
Stevens
and
just
to
note
this
is
information
only.
It
will
appear
on
the
first
reading
calendar
today
at
tonight's
evening
session,
and
this
is
largely
a
result
of
a
massive
amount
of
work.
That's
been
done
in
the
arts
and
history
Department,
as
well
as
engaging
with
Council
up
here
on
two
different
occasions
and
with
Council
leadership
as
well.
That
said,
we're
open
for
questions
or
comments,
councilman.
G
C
A
little
bit
sure
exactly
so,
if
you
read
the
language
of
The
Proposal
or
the
proposed
ordinance,
the
draft
that's
in
there
today.
The
point
too
is
well
I
should
back
up
the
public.
Art
is
now
being
sort
of
the
the
definition
has
been
expanded,
so
there
are
things
under
public
art
that
actually
could
be
considered.
Frankly,
history
or
artifacts.
C
The
point,
too,
is
what
we're
trying
to
do
by
specifying
that
is,
make
sure
that
nobody
was
concerned,
or
nobody
would
think
that
any
money
is
being
taken
out
of
public
art,
and
so
that's
what
the
default
is
going
to
be
is
that
no
change
will
happen.
In
other
words,
everything
that's
in
the
ordinance
as
it's
written
now
and
drafted
in
front
of
you
is
going
to
be
funded
by
that
one
percent.
C
So
the
point
to
as
it's
written
in
today's
ordinance
can
is
part
of
the
point
for,
and
it's
for,
education
so
think
about
programming
right.
If
we
have
a
new
piece
of
public
art-
and
we
want
to
have
the
artists
come
speak,
for
instance,
the
travel
costs
of
bringing
that
person
out.
That
sort
of
thing
might
be
covered
under
the
point
too
and
any
other
sort
of
educational
programming.
C
E
Council
part
time
Allie
Burton,
councilmember
Beijing.
Thank
you,
Jennifer
for
not
being
in
the
job
very
long
and
tackling
a
huge
problem
and
solving
it.
I
had
no
idea
that
the
entire
Department's
funding
mechanism
was
so
volatile
and
so
up
and
down
and
difficult
and
I
can't
imagine
how
you
could
stably
or
predictably
do
your
job
without
losing
a
lot
of
sleep
at
night,
and
so
that's
a
giant
problem,
and
so
thank
you
for
jumping
in
identifying
it
and
solving
it.
E
By
smoothing
the
volatility
in
those
graphs,
we
saw
my
only
feedback
because
we've
talked
about
this
a
lot
and
I'm
fully
supportive
is
that
I
noticed-
and
it's
maybe
already
addressed
in
a
policy
somewhere,
but
I
noticed
that
a
lot
of
the
maintenance
and
planning
topics
overlapped,
for
instance,
Dia
session,
is
in
maintenance,
but
it's
also
kind
of
planning
right
and
so
many
many
things
in
those
lists
could
be
characterized
either
way
and
so
in
the
spirit
of
predictability
and
stability.
E
If
it's
not
already
a
policy
that
helps
clarify
what
counts
as
maintenance,
what
counts
as
planning
and
how
to
allocate
those
funds
just
flagging
that
in
10
years,
you
could
end
up
with
the
same
uncertainty
with
you
know
where
those
percentages
actually
get
allocated,
but
just
really
fantastic
job,
and
thank
you
for
being
such
a
problem,
solver
right
out
of
the
gate.
Thank.
A
Well,
once
again,
director
Stevens
thanks
for
the
presentations
today,
thanks
for
keeping
us
right
on
time
and
a
big
thanks
to
all
the
folks
in
the
arts
and
history,
Department.
C
A
H
Council
Pro
tem
Hallie
Burton
members
of
the
council,
nice
to
see
you
tonight.
My
name
is
Tessa
grieger
and
I'm.
The
mobility
and
public
spaces
manager
in
the
city's
planning
and
development
services.
Division
I'm
also
joined
by
our
shared
micro,
Mobility
team,
Karen,
Gallagher,
Brie,
brush
and
Tyler
Johnson,
and
we
also
have
Hayden
Harvey,
who
is
a
manager
for
lime
online
who's
joining
us
via
Zoom
tonight
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
provide
an
update
on
the
shared
micro,
Mobility,
Program
and
specifically
where
we
are
in
the
process
as
we
move
towards
a
revamped
program.
H
So
as
background
since
2018,
the
city
has
licensed
shared
micro,
Mobility
vendors
to
operate
in
Boise
under
title
III,
chapter
14
of
our
city
code.
During
this
time,
we've
licensed
three
companies,
lime,
Spin
and
bird,
which
up
until
recently
have
operated
exclusively
e-scooters
each
with
a
Max
of
around
250
devices
in
Boise
last
year.
With
support
from
city
council,
we
made
the
decision
to
conduct
an
RFP
process
to
select
one
company,
and
this
was
really
to
provide
a
comprehensive,
shared
micro,
Mobility
Program
through
a
contract-based
approach.
As
many
other
communities
have
moved
towards.
H
Tonight
is
the
first
reading
of
Boise
city
code
amendments
which
are
necessary
for
us
to
advance
with
a
single
provider
contract
for
this
program.
Following
tonight,
we
are
targeting
the
June
27th
city
council
meeting
for
your
consideration
of
the
contract,
which
would
coincide
with
the
anticipated
third
reading
of
the
code
amendments
following
that
we
will
be
working
towards
the
program
launch
in
mid-july,
including
marketing
and
Outreach,
leading
up
to
that.
H
So,
as
I
mentioned
on
City
council's
agenda
tonight
is
the
first
reading
of
ordinance
20-23.
This
ordinance
will
repeal
title
III
chapter
14
of
the
Boise
city
code,
which
is
the
licensing
section
for
shared
micro,
Mobility
programs,
and
ultimately,
this
will
enable
us
to
move
towards
a
contract
with
one
company,
specifically
lime.
In
this
case,
and
as
a
note,
much
of
the
code,
language
that
we
will
be
repealing,
is
included
or
will
be
incorporated
into
the
contract
that
we
are
moving
forward
with
and
then
in
addition
to
the
repeal
ordinance.
H
20-23
further
amends
title
6,
chapter
13,
which
relates
to
the
operation
of
bicycles,
e-bikes
and
e-scooters,
to
update
certain
definitions
related
to
this
program,
for
example,
allowing
for
seated
e-scooters,
providing
minor
clarifications
and
grammar
edits
and
then
renumbering.
The
code
sections
where
needed.
H
As
we
are
preparing
the
contract
with
Lyme
I
wanted
to
touch
on
a
few
aspects
of
the
contract
that
you
can
expect
to
see
moving
forward.
This
will
be
a
one-year
contract
with
the
option
to
renew,
based
on
our
evaluation
of
the
program
and
feedback
that
we
hear
from
the
community
as
well
as
City
Council.
H
It
will
include
a
detailed
scope
of
service
which
will
reflect
lime's
proposal
as
well
as
the
information
that
we
had
in
our
RFP,
while
also
incorporating
key
aspects
of
our
current
code.
It
will
also
include
an
implementation
plan
detailing
the
activities
that
will
happen
prior
to
the
program
launch,
as
well
as
the
activities
that
will
happen
following
the
program
launch.
H
H
H
So
the
fleet
that
we
expect
to
launch
will
include
800
e-scooters,
and
this
is
comparable
to
what
we've
had
in
place
for
the
past
several
years
across
the
three
vendors.
In
addition,
there
will
be
a
minimum
of
150
e-bikes
and
we
are
working
with
lime
currently
to
explore
the
possibility
of
increasing
the
number
of
bikes,
as
we
see
this
as
a
really
big
opportunity
area
for
the
city
of
Boise.
H
In
addition,
we
will
have
the
opportunity
to
introduce
seated
e-scooters,
as
well
as
adaptive
devices
beginning
with,
what's
shown
on
the
slide
here,
but
we'll
be
working
with
the
community
and
lime
to
determine
what
types
of
devices
are
appropriate
for
our
community
members
with
the
potential
to
expand
and
refine
the
Adaptive
Fleet
program.
As
we
move
forward
during
the
contract.
H
H
H
We
view
this
next
year
as
a
pilot,
and
we
are
going
to
be
really
intentional
about
the
evaluation
of
the
program
to
ensure
success
and
to
identify
opportunities
for
refinement
both
during
the
contract
period
as
well
as
moving
forward.
We
will
be
requiring
comprehensive
reports
that
allow
us
to
understand
various
metrics
of
the
program,
including
ridership
deployment,
customer
service,
complaints
and
resolution,
as
well
as
safety.
H
To
recap,
next
steps
tonight
we'll
start
the
code
amendment
process
and
we
will
be
working
to
have
a
contract
ready
for
council's
consideration
on
June
27th
gearing
up
for
a
mid-july
program
launch.
We
are
also
excited
to
be
launching
a
shared
micro
Mobility
stakeholder
committee,
which
we
anticipate
meeting
quarterly
with
the
first
meeting
in
a
couple
weeks,
so
this
group
will
really
be
helping
to
provide
feedback
as
we
lead
up
to
the
program
and
then
during
the
program
about
how
things
are
working.
H
So
we're
really
excited
to
hear
from
our
key
stakeholders
about
how
things
are
going
so
that
we
can
continue
to
improve
and
ensure
that
we
are
meeting
the
goals
for
the
community,
and
then
this
will
also
be
an
opportunity
for
us
to
share
information
about
the
program
so
that
that
can
then
be
further
disseminated
throughout
the
community
moving
forward.
We
would
be
happy
to
provide
regular
program
updates
to
keep
city
council
informed
about
the
program
how
it's
going
and
what
we're
hearing
from
the
public.
A
Thank
you
for
the
presentation.
Tessa
I
miss
the
name
of
the
person
representative
from
lime.
That's
online,
but
I
was
going
to
see
if
they
had
any
additional
comments
that
they
wanted
to
share
before
we
opened
up
to
questions.
A
Hidden
Harvey,
if
you're
there,
and
if
you
have
any
other,
have
any
other
input
before
we
open
up
to
questions.
That
would
be
great.
If
not
that's.
Okay,
too
I'm.
F
Here,
just
grateful
to
be
a
part
of
this
process.
I
really
enjoyed
working
with
the
city
of
Boise
and
I.
Think
you
guys
were
certainly
leading
in
this
sort
of
program
that
we'll
be
delivering
to
the
city
and
the
hopefully,
in
the
coming
weeks.
A
Great,
thank
you
so
much
for
taking
the
time
to
be
online
today,
I'll
open
it
up
to
questions
and
that
can
either
go
to
maybe
or
can
go
to
Tessa.
G
G
H
Council
Pro
tem
Haliburton,
council
member
haniki.
Thank
you
for
your
question,
so
we
will
be
so.
The
mandatory
parking
zones
will
be
implemented
through,
what's
called
geofencing,
so
it
will
be
Technology
based
and
in
in
doing
that.
In
providing
those
mandatory
parking
zones,
the
user
will
not
be
able
to
park
their
device
if
it's
not
within
one
of
those
geofenced
zones,
so
that
will
all
be
Technology
based
that
enables
them
to
only
Park
in
those
certain
zones.
H
In
addition,
we
have
other
language
that
will
be
included
in
the
contract
requiring
the
enforcement
and
compliance
from
from
lime
to
ensure
that
those
devices
are
being
deployed
in
appropriate
areas
and
that
they're
not
being
parked
in
areas
that
would
provide
conflicts
with
pedestrians
and
so
forth.
In
addition,
our
team
at
the
city
provides
enforcement
as
well
so
they're
out
there
helping
to
manage
the
program
and
ensure
that
it's
providing
safe
access
is
for
people
in
the
community.
D
Yeah,
thank
you.
Council
Pro,
tem,
Hallie
Britton,
says
I
have
a
couple
of
questions.
One
of
them
is
I.
Think
it's
really
great
that
we
have
a
stakeholder
subcommittee.
Is
there
somebody
on
from
the
accessibility,
Community
included
in
that
subcommittee,
because
I
know
that
they've
had
a
lot
of
concerns
with
especially
ADA
compliance
with
blocking
sidewalks
and
things
like
that.
H
D
That
is
wonderful,
I
appreciate
that
news
very
much
and
then
my
second
question
is
around
the
way
that
people
will
use
the
system.
I
know
that
in
some
cities
you
can
use
like
your
Lyft
app
to
kind
of
cross
access
Mobility
devices
as
well.
Will
there
be
any
other
opportunities,
besides
just
specifically
having
the
Lime
app
to
access
line
devices.
H
Council
president
weddings,
yes,
Lyme
is
in
partnership
with
Uber,
so
that
is
one
way
in
which
users
will
be
able
to
access
the
devices.
So
that's
one
really
big
opportunity
that
we
see
with
this
program.
In
addition,
we
will
be
working
with
lime
and
with
our
partners,
including
Valley
Regional
Transit,
to
identify
opportunities
for
further
integration
into
the
mobile
apps
that
are
in
existence
here
in
Boise.
H
I
The
there
was
a
slide
with
the
I
think
they
were
called
I'm,
calling
I'm
going
to
make
up
a
name,
sit
down
scooters,
there's
that
was
reference,
sit
down,
scooter
and
then
showed
and
then
also
referenced
there.
We.
D
H
Council
Pro
tem
Haley
Burton
Madame
mayor,
the
seated
scooter
is
separate
from
the
Adaptive
devices,
so
those
are
essentially
the
stand-up
scooters
that
are
converted
with
a
seat.
The
Adaptive
devices
that
we
will
be
starting
at
the
program
launch
as
the
is
the
motorized
wheelchair.
Essentially,
it's
called
the.
H
I
And
then
just
follow-up
question:
do
you
have
a
sense
of
the
number
of
the
Adaptive
and
seated
scooters
that
will
be
out
there,
or
is
that
subject
to
demand
or
kind
of
seeing
how
the
program
works
with
the
others.
H
H
The
initial
Fleet
will
likely
include
one
or
two
of
those
devices
and
then,
depending
on
demand,
we
will
be
working
with
lime
to
determine
if
there's
additional
need
for
a
fleet
expansion
as
far
as
the
seated
scooters,
what
we
are
currently
looking
at
and
and
these
details
are
still
being
worked
out
with
the
contract
negotiations.
But
what
we
are
looking
at
there
is
providing
a
very
small
Fleet
in
order
for
our
team
and
our
partners
to
test
those
devices
out.
They
are
in
use
in
other
communities
around
the
country.
A
I
think
that's
all
the
all
the
questions
I
just
want
to
thank
staff
again
for
all
the
work
that's
done
been
done
on
this
I
think
this
is
one
of
those
situations
where
you're
trying
to
make
policy
catch
up
with
technology
and
trying
to
figure
out
some
of
these
things
as
we
go
and
I
think
it's
really
exciting
that
we're
kind
of
working
our
way
towards
you
know
finding
something
that
really
serves
our
city
really
well.
I.
A
Think
I
saved
your
team
from
one
extra
work
session
at
some
point,
but
I
do
think
it
would
be
great
at
some
point
to
get
more
information
back
after
this
has
been
implemented
for
a
while
to
see
how
things
are
going
to
make
sure
that
this
felt
like
a
really
good
move
and
I,
think
it's
just
exciting
that
we're
trying
to
move
in
a
Direction-
that's
still
getting
these
in
our
city,
but
getting
them
done
in
a
way
that
serves
our
community
better.
So,
thanks
for
all
the
work
that
went
into
this,
thank.
F
J
So,
over
the
past
eight
months,
this
has
been
an
economic
development
project
due
to
the
need
to
communicate
and
coordinate
with
key
stakeholders
and
partners.
I've
collaborated
with
an
array
of
key
stakeholders
from
business
owners
to
General
Contractors
and
heard
a
range
of
concerns
about
the
number
of
construction,
related
closures
and
how
these
have
impacted
our
residents
ability
to
move
through
the
city.
The
photos
on
this
slide
are
from
the
11th
Street
area,
just
as
an
example
of
what
you
might
experience
at
the
street
level.
J
J
This
brings
us
today
with
the
number
of
projects
currently
being
built.
Business
owners,
employees
and
visitors
have
shared
difficulties
with
access
to
this
area
of
the
city,
resulting
in
wanting
to
see
a
city
take
action.
The
key
concerns
that
we've
heard
were
around
lack
of
parking
for
both
employees
and
customers.
Again,
with
these
surface
Lots
kind
of
going
away
parking
is
at
a
premium
we're
also
seeing
contractors
utilizing
metered
parking,
making
it
even
more
difficult.
J
We
also
heard
that
limited
access
for
customers
and
employees
be
able
to
to
get
to
ground
level.
Businesses
due
to
sidewalk
closures
or
detour
routes
has
been
hard.
We
heard
that
traffic
congestion
due
to
lane
closures
and
street
closures
is
a
concern
and
also
just
frustration
about
the
total
number
of
projects
being
built.
At
the
same
time,.
J
Here's
a
visual
just
to
illustrate
the
closures
and
projects
around
the
11th
Street
area.
The
graphic
on
the
left.
The
different
colored
lines
is
showing
various
approved
closures
that
achd
is
tracking,
which
range
from
sidewalk
closures
to
full
street
closures
of
the
right-of-way.
As
you
can
see,
there's
a
lot
going
on
then
the
Box
on
the
right.
There
are
just
a
few
examples
of
what's
being
built.
We
have
a
few
hotels,
a
couple
mixed-use
housing
projects,
utility
work
and
two
major
streetscape
improvements
once
completed.
J
These
Investments
are
going
to
be
impactful
and
important
additions
and,
while
many
folks
are
excited
about
the
future,
there's
some
anxiety
about
getting
through
the
present.
If
we
want
to
present
scenarios
where
entire
sections
of
the
city
are
closed
going
forward.
Well,
then
we'll
need
to
look
at
some
new
approaches
both
internally
and
with
some
of
our
partners
like
azhd,
to
address
this,
as
we
become
a
larger
City.
J
As
we
love
to
make
changes,
timing
of
the
actions
are
going
to
be
important.
Here
is
an
oversimplified
timeline
to
help
highlight
the
process
flow
for
a
large
development.
We
know
that
impacts
are
felt
once
a
project
is
under
construction
and
things
are
actually
being
built.
So
in
order
to
have
influence
and
reduce
impacts
experienced
during
the
construction
stage,
changes
will
need
to
be
built
into
the
planning
stages,
as
represented
by
the
dark
blue
boxes.
On
the
left.
J
From
conversations
with
the
planning
team,
the
planning
stages
again
as
represented
the
dark
blue
boxes,
is
where
the
city
is
best
positioned
to
intervene,
because
this
is
where
we
could
add
conditions
of
approval
or
set
guidelines
early
on
for
large
projects,
so
developers
and
contractors
can
plan
for
any
additional
requirements
into
their
building.
Time
frames
to
tie
this
back
to
the
previous
Slide.
J
J
So
as
we
look
to
make
changes
again
with
many
of
the
projects,
11th
Street
area
already
in
the
building
phase,
the
current
role
of
the
city
has
been
excuse.
J
We
also
had
to
kind
of
enforce
to
increase
enforcement
of
parking
in
these
areas
again
to
kind
of
help
with
that
turnover
on
the
other
side
of
things,
to
help
address
the
need
for
employee
parking
again
with
surface
Lots
kind
of
no
longer
available
in
garages
being
in
high
demand,
we
created
a
new
e-permit
for
the
West
area
of
downtown.
This
is
a
monthly
permit.
It
costs
around
25
a
month.
This
has
been
well
received
and
appreciated
by
employees
allowing
them
to
be
able
to
park
near
their
businesses.
J
As
we
talk
about
mitigation,
the
intent
is
to
have
a
predictable
process
that
helps
support
development
and
members
of
the
community.
The
main
focus
around
these
actions
are
enhanced.
Communication,
as
we
see,
is
this
something
that
City
could
lead
on
the
ways
I'm
going
to
kind
of
talk
about.
This
are
in
a
few
buckets.
The
first
ones
will
be
around
communication
tools
again
kind
of
focusing
on
how
we
enhance
how
we
communicate
both
with
partners
and
a
community
about
projects
and
then
I'll
go
into
one.
J
So
Under
the
Umbrella
of
communication
tools.
The
approach
here
is
to
identify
how
the
city
and
our
applicants
could
better
communicate
with
the
community.
This
could
look
like
suggesting
pre-concept
construction
meetings
with
businesses
around
the
job
site,
asking
Partners
to
host
onboarding
meetings
to
share
updates
or
even
encouraging
just
project
websites
that
project
managers
update
regularly
for
the
long
build
times
you
know
anywhere
from
28
to
36
months.
J
This
could
help
raise
awareness
and
provide
helpful
information
around
active
zones
to
help
members
of
the
community
plan
and
prepare
for
the
different
stages
of
development
and
limit
some
surprises
likely.
This
would
be
a
recommendation
and
not
a
requirement,
and
the
city's
role
could
be
to
support
this
action.
J
Here
we
have
the
approach
focused
on
collaborating
with
other
agencies
and
organizations
to
enhance
the
sharing
of
information
around
projects
at
different
stages.
These
actions
could
help
to
provide
insights
on
what
to
expect
for
upcoming
work
closures
or
detours
to
provide
a
more
holistic
view
of
what
to
expect
from
a
project
or
maybe
multiple
projects.
J
On
the
slide.
I
mentioned
traffic
control
plans
here,
I'm
referencing,
a
plan
that
could
help
address
how
to
efficiently
and
safely
move
people
around
a
project,
especially
if
there
will
be
closures
that
disrupt
the
public
use
of
the
road,
the
sidewalks
alleys
or
bike
Lanes
and
a
traffic
control
plan
could
be
templated
or
maybe
even
tailored
for
specific
project
needs.
J
Bigger
picture,
if
we
want
to
do
more
than
than
improve
just
how
we
communicate
around
projects,
we
could
look
to
to
evaluate
what
current
policies
and
procedures
are
in
place
and
identify
where
there
could
be
opportunities
for
changes.
Additionally,
it
could.
It
would
be
helpful
to
identify
best
practices
for
construction
mitigation
based
on
other
Urban
cities,
to
help
Boise
find
the
right
size
solution
for
this
approach.
We
would
want
this
to
be
explored
at
a
leadership
level
since
we'd
be
asking
our
agency
partners
like
achd
to
collaborate
and
work
with
us.
J
An
example
of
what
could
come
out
of
coordinating
policies
with
Partners
like
achd,
could
look
like
working
in
coordination
to
create
special
traffic
control
requirements
for
larger
projects.
This
could
have
elements
around
time,
limits
for
lane
or
sidewalk
closures,
requiring
parking
plans
for
contractors
and
even
ways
to
maintain
pedestrian
access
throughout
a
project.
J
Well,
there's
some
things
to
say:
you
can
do
alone
to
address
mitigation
like
adding
conditions
to
a
project
during
the
design
phase
or
improving
communication.
We
feel
in
order
to
have
the
most
meaningful
impact
we
would
want
to
make
changes
in
coordination
with
agency
partners.
We
feel
like
they're
present
is
a
good
time
to
explore
this.
A
Thank
you
so
much
Andrea,
it
does
say
information
only
on
the
agenda,
but
I
think
everyone
heard
that
staff
is
asking
for
direction
from
Council,
so
a
direction
would
be
appreciated.
A
E
J
E
So,
to
the
extent
that
we
coordinate
with
each
other
and
make
things
efficient,
that
makes
sense
to
me
on
the
private
development
somebody
you
know:
revitalizing
a
private
building
or
doing
private
work.
It's
hard!
That's
in
my
mind.
This
is
all
my
it's
not
even
Direction.
This
is
just
my
thoughts.
That's
a
closer
tougher
call.
Those
are
public
streets
to
the
extent
that
the
private
development
improves
downtown.
E
It
benefits
everyone,
there's
a
cost,
adding
a
lot
of
regulatory
work
to
it,
to
try
to
minimize
impacts
or
whatever
will
result
in
delay,
which
will
make
some
of
the
pain
longer.
So
there's
a
Sticky
Wicket
there
to
unravel,
and
then
my
third
thought-
and
this
is
just
more
of
a
question-
and
it's
not
I'm
not
being
confrontational
or
saying
the
downtown
businesses
are
wrong.
But
it's
not
obvious
to
me
that
prioritizing
employee
parking
is
the
highest
and
best
use
of
limited
parking
downtown.
E
We
should
be
prioritizing
customer
parking,
citizen
parking,
downtown
youth
parking,
it's
convenient
to
be
able
to
drive
and
park
next
to
your
work,
but
that's
a
space
that
everybody
uses
and
so
I'm
not
saying
No.
This
is
a
bad
idea,
but
we're
going
to
tend
to
hear
from
the
employees
who
want
to
park
we're
not
going
to
tend
to
hear
from
the
people
who
go
downtown
to
eat
or
the
people
who
go
downtown
to
walk
around,
even
though
they
have
as
much
right
or
more
right
to
be
parking
and
using
that
space.
E
So
flagging
that
balance
as
one
that
we
may
not
get
the
right
kind
of
feedback
on,
because
the
voice
is
most
incentivized
and
most
able
to
be
here
only
come
from
one
perspective,
so
not
sure
about
prioritizing
employee
parking
downtown
when
downtown
is
a
space
where
we
want
people
to
come
and
use.
So
it
remains
vibrant,
not
sure
that
adding
a
process
that
could
result
in
delay
actually
solves
pain,
downtown
the
long
videos
go
on
the
worse.
E
G
Thank
you.
This
is
a
really
helpful
presentation,
I
guess,
I'm.
Just
thinking
out
loud
a
little
bit,
I
saw
on
your
slides
a
focus
on
communication.
I
think
I
saw
a
little
bit
even
on
website,
potentially
construction
related
websites,
I
mean
one
thing
that
I
personally
have
found
helpful.
G
But
again
it's
because
we're
providing
some
fundings
to
support
that
right,
as
CCDC
sends
out
notifications
on
construction
updates,
and
obviously
you
have
to
opt
into
those
updates.
But
I
have
found
those
really
helpful
and
I
don't
know
whether
I
would
consistently
go
to
a
website
or
not,
but
I
do
think.
D
G
Thinking
about
and
I
realize,
with
the
private
development
and
how
much
work
they
may
be
involved
in
some
of
that.
Maybe
that's
more
challenging
to
do,
but
you
know
we
require
at
least
when
we're
providing
funding
on
projects
for
CCDC
that
we're
sending
updates
to
the
community.
So
I
I
do
like
that
approach.
G
I
guess
my
other
thought
I
think
along
with
council
member
bajent's
comments
on
the
private
development
part
is
also
a
lot
of
of
additional
regulation
on
on
those
private
developers
may
be
more
challenging,
so
I
guess
I'm
leaning
more
to
what
it.
What
is
it
that
the
city
can
do
within
its
bandwidth
that
doesn't
also
kind
of
slow
things
down.
I
noticed
on
one
of
your
slides.
You
mentioned
about
time
limits,
for
example,
of
like
lane
closures,
and
things
like
that.
G
I
would
personally
love
that
I
think
in
part
to
know
that
you
know
things
must
be
done
within
a
particular
time
frame.
G
I
have
heard
some
complaints
that
construction
has
seemed
to
stop,
at
least
from
the
you
know,
a
general
member's
purview
and
it
just
stops,
but
the
lane
closure
has
still
happened,
so
maybe
something
along
those
lines
might
be
valuable,
though
I
can
understand
that
there
may
be
some
legitimate
reasons
for
why
Elaine
is
closed
for
a
longer
period
of
time,
but
I
definitely
can
can
have
been
hearing
that
from
folks
coming
down
Idaho
in
particular.
Right
now,.
J
Foreign
thank
you
for
that.
I
think
that's
very
helpful
and
I
just
to
share
a
little
background
on
some
of
the
conversations
I've
had
with
some
of
the
project
managers
and
general
contractors.
In
addition
to
CCDC
I
think
there
is
a
willingness
from
some
of
our
partners
that
may
already
be
sharing
some
of
these
updates
around
project
websites,
so
probably
building
into
maybe
it's
a
suggestion
and
not
a
requirement
if
they
have
the
bandwidth
and
the
willingness
too.
We
spoke
with,
for
example,
mcilvaine
who
said
that's
something
that
it's
mutually
beneficial
for
them
to
share.
J
Some
of
these
updates
with
businesses
versus
having
one-on-one
conversations
or
having
some
upset
residents,
not
knowing
what's
happening
so
I.
Think
further
conversations
around
that,
but
I
do
think.
There's
probably
some
willingness
from
a
few
of
the
partners
to
to
share
some
version
of
information
around
their
projects.
D
Thank
you,
proton
Halliburton,
and
thank
you
Andrea
for
really
connecting
with
folks
and
getting
out
there
and
being
proactive
as
the
liaison
to
downtown
Boise.
Association
I've
been
hearing
a
lot
about
some
of
these
closures
and
I.
Think
that
I'm
going
to
disagree
with
my
fellow
council
members
a
little
bit
I
think
it
would
behoove
us
to
look
at
what
other
cities
do
and
what
best
practices
are
when
it
comes
to
managing
construction
vehicles
in
downtown
areas.
D
For
example,
when
Saint
Luke's
was
under
construction,
we
required
them
to
have
a
parking
plan
for
construction
vehicles
to
minimize
impacts
to
the
neighborhood,
and
we've
had
a
couple
of
different
instances,
not
just
this
one
on
the
west
end
of
downtown,
but
also
when
there
was
a
lot
of
construction
happening
in
the
live
District
around
construction
vehicles,
clogging
up
customer
parking
and
I
think
you
know
similar
to
employee
parking.
Those
spots
should
not
be
used
by
long-term
parking
with
the
citations
just
being
kind
of
the
cost
of
business.
D
They
should
be
required
to
have
a
plan
for
construction
vehicles
and,
where
they're
going
to
put
them
short
term,
whether
that's
in
a
parking
garage
or
whether
they
make
other
arrangements
for
carpooling
and
other
mitigation
strategies.
So
I
would
actually
really
encourage
that
as
we
go
forward
for
our
downtown
and
then
also
on
the
sidewalk
closures.
D
But
I
think
that
that
really
needs
to
be
prioritized
is
maintaining
pedestrian
access,
whether
that's
a
time
limit
for
being
able
to
have
a
closure
on
the
sidewalk
or
rerouting
the
sidewalk
when
needed.
So
I
really
appreciate
all
your
work,
Andrea
and
I'm.
Looking
forward
to
working
with
you
on
making
sure
that
we're
we
have
a
solution
that
works
for
everyone.
I
Yeah,
thank
you.
A
couple
things
I
first
I
want
to
thank
Andrea
as
well,
and
the
team
at
DVA
and
council
president.
Your
involvement
on
this
and
I
think
the
achcd
is
there.
Tonight
too.
They
I
appreciate
that
they're
working
with
our
team
to
try
to
come
up
with
some
solutions.
I
Frankly,
our
our
pedestrians
and
others
downtown
will
be
too
so,
and
we've
learned
a
lot
in
this,
as
our
city
has
grown
the
council
president's
right.
We
ought
to
be
looking
at
other
larger
cities
to
see
how
they
do
this,
because
this
is
not
something
that
Boise
histor
historically
had
to
worry
about,
as
we've
kind
of
developed
piece
by
piece.
I
F
I
Them
keep
their
doors
open
and,
importantly,
to
make
sure
that
we
have
plans
in
place
to
prevent
this
in
the
future.
So
appreciate
all
the
work
that's
being
done,
foreign.
A
I
did
have
a
couple
of
questions
one
you
had
mentioned
some
concerns
about
traffic
congestion
and
time
with
some
of
the
lane
closures,
I'm
curious
to
know
if
we
have
any
data
that
shows
how
bad
that's
been
or
if
that
has
been
an
actual
thing
or
if
it's
more
more
of
something
that
feels
like
that,
there's
traffic
congestion
or
if
there
actually
is
documented.
J
Now
that's
a
great
question:
I
think
that's
something
we
could
look
into
and
maybe
a
follow-up
action
I
think
we've
heard
anecdotally
that,
as
we
live
from,
you
know
three
lanes
on
Main
to
one
as
people
are
coming
into
work
say
at
9am.
It's
it's
very
difficult,
so
I
think
some
of
the
the
feedback
has
been
around
how
people
are
are
feeling.
F
J
A
I
always
find
that
very
interesting
just
because
then
it
kind
of
informs
you
for
future
Street
use
decisions
on
how
big
of
an
impact
some
of
those
closures
might
really
have
I.
Think
you
got
some
direction
from
staff.
I
think
that
there's
definitely
a
lot
of
support
that
we
heard
from
working
with
our
partner
agencies
to
make
sure
that
we
do
those
things
really
well.
I
really
think
that
the
standardized
traffic
control
plans
and
making
sure
that
people
know
what
the
expectations
are.
A
There
are
really
really
important
and
I
know
I'm,
going
to
sound
like
a
Johnny
come
lately
when
I
say
this,
but
I
also
think
that
there's
a
role
potentially
that
the
city
can
play
as
a
convener
with
some
of
our
businesses
that
have
ample
parking
I'm
sure
this
has
been
talked
about
and
considered
many
times
before,
but
there's
so
much
surface
level
parking
throughout
the
city
that
never
is
being
used
and
I.
A
Think
of
the
Albertsons
parking
lot,
for
example,
and
opportunities
to
park
there,
that
oftentimes
don't
happen
and
I
I
do
think
that
there's
a
potential
role
for
the
city
to
be
a
convener
and
kind
of
finding
some
of
those
potential
spots
and
figuring
out
how
that
might
be
able
to
be
a
win-win
for
everyone.
I
know
that's
a
much
more
complicated
issue,
but
something
to
to
be
worth
considering
anything
else
from
Council.
A
With
that,
that
is
our
last
regular
item.
So
looking
for
a
motion
to
move
to
Executive
session
councilmember.
E
Mr
Mayor
sorry
I
moved
to
Idaho
code
72
2061c
to
enter
executive
session
to
consider
the
acquisition
of
real
property
not
owned
by
a
public
agency.
