A

C

C
C
D
A
mayor,
I
don't
have
a
question
for
eric,
so
this
is
not
directed
at
you
at
all.
I
just
want
to
say
that
it's
really
disappointing
the
ada
county
pulled
out
of
their
support
for
new
path.
We've
seen
through
a
study
done
by
boise
state
that
it's
really
a
tremendous
investment
in
our
community.
It's
humane!
It's
a
way
that
we
can
help
folks
who
have
been
experiencing
homelessness,
long-term,
live
in
a
way
that
is
not
harmful
to
them
or
our
community.
D
E
F
F
If
more
entities
were
putting
forward
resources
to
meet
that
need,
and
and
she
did,
she
ran
and
she
won.
And
now
we
see
what
happens
when
we
lose
good
people
who
have
those
best
of
intentions
in
mind
and
who
are
willing
to
make
a
sacrifice
to
make
those
difficult
decisions.
So
I
just
strongly
encourage
the
public
to
pay
attention
to
these
elections
and
to
be
mindful
of
who
they
send
forward.
F
A
Like
my
fellow
council
members,
I'm
disappointed
that
ada
county
took
this
action
to
pull
out
of
this
at
the
same
time,
recognize
that
we've
got
vulnerable
citizens
who
are
counting
on
us
to
help
them,
as
they
work
on
figuring
out
how
to
put
their
lives
back
together
and
as
councilmember
woodings
noted.
This
program
has
been
incredibly
successful
at
doing
just
that.
A
What
I
think
bothers
me,
the
most
or
disappoints
me,
the
most,
if
you
will,
as
a
taxpayer
of
aid
accounting
and
a
taxpayer
of
the
city
of
boise
as
well
as
an
elected
official.
I
know
that
the
county
both
has
a
statutory
responsibility
as
well
as
defined
funding
for
these
kinds
of
needs.
City
of
boise
does
not.
The
city
of
boise
is
doing
this
because
we
know
that
it's
the
best
thing
to
do
for
those
citizens
who
rely
on
this.
A
But
I
do
look
forward
over
the
next
year
to
working
with
all
of
the
partners
who
work
in
this
space
and
finding
a
more
sustainable
solution
to
funding
the
much
needed
services
so
that
we
can
get
people
into
housing.
Knowing
that
when
we
get
them
into
housing,
they
are
much
more
likely
to
succeed
than
if,
if
they
are
not
in
housing
and
that's
what
this
program
does
so,
I
will
be
supporting
it,
but
also
looking
forward
to
those
tough
conversations.
G
A
G
A
H
D
All
right
do
I
need
to
move
to
withdraw
the
motion.
Yes,
thank
you.
Thank
you,
madam
mayor.
I
appreciate
council
member
holly
burton
being
so
forthcoming
about
his
relationship
with
golden
eagle,
but
I
don't
see
a
conflict
of
interest
since
he
doesn't
stand
to
have
any
personal
financial
gain
from
the
approval
of
this
interim
budget
change.
So
I
ask
unanimous
consent
that
council
member
hallie
burton
vote
on
the
motion
before
us
without
objection.
D
A
I
I
I
So
first
of
all,
you've,
obviously
you're
well
aware
of
the
utility
plan,
but
that
kind
of
anchors
us
was
an
anchoring
point
and
where
we
started
from
this
going
forward
for
the
financial
planning
related
to
the
utility
plan.
So
last
october
in
2020,
you
all
adopted
the
water
renewal
utility
plan
that
utility
plan
was
founded
on
significant
community
input,
and
the
picture
here
was
showing
the
22
member
advisory
group.
That
was
a
significant
part
of
that
input.
I
The
utility
plan
did
establish
our
next
20-year
strategic
direction
for
the
water
renewal
utility
and
that
strategic
and
direction
includes
some
main
points
that
are
listed
here.
So
the
first
one
is
enhancing
and
the
health
and
use
of
the
boise
river.
So
we
it's
a
community
gym
and
we
want
to
make
sure
that
that
stays
that
way
for
a
long
time,
also
reinvesting
in
our
infrastructure,
as
you've
heard
before
our
first
water
renewal
facility
was
constructed
in
the
late
40s
and
so
we're
right
now,
starting
that
rebuilding
of
that
facility.
I
So
we
need
to
continue
that
the
other
large
water
renewal
facility
was
built
in
the
mid
70s.
So
once
we're
completed
with
the
first
lander
street
was
the
first
facility
once
we
complete
that
rebuilding,
then
we'll
switch
over
to
the
west
boise
facility
to
start
that
work
there
as
well,
and
then
another
piece
of
the
plan
was
initiating
the
recycled
water
program.
This
was
a
very
important
piece
for
our
community
members
that
participated.
I
They
wanted
to
ensure
that
we're
supporting
the
local
economy
with
industrial,
reuse,
water
and
also
helping
to
combat
climate
change
and
the
impacts
that
we
may
have
from
droughts,
going
forward
with
potential
aquifer
recharge
there
and
last
but
not
least,
keeping
an
eye
on
affordability.
It's
very
important
to
all
of
you.
J
I
To
us
as
well
that
as
we're
having
to
make
these
investments
in
our
system
that
we
try
and
make
it
as
affordable
as
possible
for
our
community,
so
you've
seen
this
slide
many
times
as
well.
It
outlines
where
we
are
with
our
facilities.
Right
now
we
have
the
west
boise
and
lander
street
water
renewal
facility
is
the
phosphorus
removal
facility
out
in
parma
and
also
the
20-mile
south
farm.
I
The
bond
authorization
as
you're
aware,
I'm
sure,
was
approved
by
81
percent
of
our
voters.
It
gives
us
the
ability
to
issue
bonds
up
to
570
million
dollars
and
the
the
term
of
those
bonds
could
be
up
to
30
years.
So
it
gives
us
some
flexibility
in
financing
our
program
and
our
first
rate
increase
associated
with
that
overall
bond
plan,
then,
is
going
to
be
effective
january
1st
of
2022
and
that
will
be
9.9
percent.
I
You
had
already
approved
that
rate
increase
as
part
of
the
fiscal
year
22
budget
development
cycle,
so
the
next
few
slides
I'll
cover
some
of
the
options
we
have
as
far
as
bond
financing
and
the
first
one
is
the
water
infrastructure,
finance
and
innovation
act.
We
call
it
wifi
and
this
is
a
federal
credit
program
administered
by
the
environmental
protection
agency.
I
I
I
The
city
did
as
well
submit
an
application
for
this
year's
funding
allocation
and
we
ranked
11th
our
application
was
very
large
for
the
funding
available
for
this
program,
so
we
aren't
receiving
any
funds
and
for
it
because
a
we
rank
too
low
and
also
because
we're
too
big
of
a
request
for
them.
But
the
benefits
of
this
program,
if
we
potentially
are
eligible
in
the
future,
would
be
the
low
interest
rates
that
this
program
might
afford.
I
E
I
I
Thank
you
and
the
last
option
would
be
a
market
bond
issuance,
so
this
would
be
where
private
investors
buy
bonds
issued
by
the
city
for
fiscal
year
22.
We
anticipate
this
would
be
the
way
we
issue
bonds
for
this
fiscal
year
benefits
here
reliable
source
of
funding.
There
are
a
lot
of
investors
out
in
the
market
that
like
to
purchase
municipal
bonds,
so
that
helps
us
out,
and
the
city
has
a
great
credit
rating,
and
so
we
would
be
able
to
leverage
that
to
help
a
secure,
a
lower
interest
rate.
I
So
other
funding
alternatives.
This
would
not
necessarily
be
bond
funding,
but
we've
talked
before
about
the
infrastructure,
investment
and
jobs
act,
as
I'm
sure
you're
aware
it
passed
last
week,
so
we're
starting
to
investigate
what
it
means
for
us
as
a
city
to
be
able
to
be
eligible
for
the
program
and
how
we
would
need
to
apply
for
that.
I
As
we
already
mentioned,
the
lander
street
water
renewal
facility
we're
in
the
first
phase
of
that
project,
which
includes
a
lot
of
repair
and
replacement
of
our
existing
assets
in
phase
two
that
will
can
repair.
My
placement
will
continue
and
we'll
also
be
adding
components
for
regulatory
requirements
for
phosphorus
removal.
I
The
next
piece
would
be
our
recycled
water
program.
It
is
going
to
be
the
city's
first
recycled
water
program,
which
we
think
is
pretty
exciting.
It
will
add
a
third
water
renewal
facility,
which
comes
with
5,
mgd
million
gallons
per
day
of
capacity
for
that
and
also
aquifer
recharge
facilities
will
be
designed
and
constructed
next
enhancing
the
river.
This
is
a
unique
way
for
us
to
meet
some
of
the
regulatory
requirements
we
have
for
the
boise
river.
I
There
are
various
impairments
related
regulatorily
on
the
river
so
rather
than
adding
chillers
or
pooing
towers
at
one
of
our
treatment
facilities.
If
we
are
out
able
to
do
have
a
habitat,
restoration
or
improving
side
stream
channels,
it
could
be
a
unique
innovative
way
of
managing
some
of
the
regulatory
requirements
and
reducing
those
impairments
on
the
river
capacity
projects.
Both
the
lander
street
and
west
boise
work
that
we're
already
doing
help
us
free
up
and
create
additional
capacity
at
both
of
those
facilities
and
the
third
water
renewal
facility
also
helps
us
there.
I
As
we
all
obviously
know
the
city
is
growing
and
we
have
to
treat
those
flows
last
but
not
least,
are
the
regulatory
requirements.
We've
been
working
on
phosphorus
removal
for
quite
some
time
now,
where
this
next
round
of
investment
will
help
us
get
down
to
the
requirements
that
we
currently
have
on
our
permit,
that's
being
issued
and
then
also
repair
and
replacement
of
our
secondary
treatment
facilities.
I
So
last
but
not
least,
what
our
next
steps
are
then,
as
I
mentioned
earlier,
we
do
need
to
issue
bonds
for
fiscal
year.
22.
we're
starting
to
kick
off
that
process
right
now.
We
need
to
select
an
underwriter
to
help
us
go
through
that
issuance
process,
so
we'll
be
issuing
a
request
for
proposal
very
soon.
I
So
over
the
course
of
the
next
10
years,
we
anticipate
to
be
issuing
bonds
every
two
to
three
years,
depending
on
the
needs
of
our
capital
plan,
and
so
each
time
we
need
to
do
that.
We
will
come
back
and
discuss
that
with
you
and
ask
for
your
approval
of
the
of
what
we
are
structuring
and
what
not.
So
that's
the
end
of
my
presentation.
If
you
have
any
questions,
questions.
D
I
I
would
imagine
that
we'll
start
showing
you
how
each
of
those
projects
are
going
to
be
funded
from
bond
or
cash
proceeds
and
then
within
our
budget
as
well
as
we
start
issuing
bonds,
then
our
the
a
portion
of
the
payment
that
and
it's
kind
of
strange,
but
the
interest
portion
of
payment
will
start
showing
up
in
our
actual
annual
budget
request
to
you
as
well,
so
you'll
start
seeing
some
additional
increases
for
those
expenditures.
As
we
move
forward
great.
D
I
think
it's
going
to
be
super
important
as
we
go
forward
with
this,
because
we
had
so
much
community
support,
obviously
to
do
these
bonds
to
just
be
really
transparent
and
make
sure
that
folks
are
able
to
see
what
that
looks
like
how
that's
rolling
out
and
so
that
people
can
kind
of
track
it
on
their
own.
I
think
it
would
be
both.
D
A
I
Work,
madam
mayor,
that's
a
good
question,
so
the
withya
program
will
fund
up
to
49
of
the
projects
that
are
eligible
for
bond
funding.
So
even
with
that
program
we
still
need
to
have
other
bonds
related
as
well,
so
we'll
determine
a
total
amount,
like
you
mentioned,
with
epa
and
they'll
approve
that
amount,
and
then
there
are
also
specific
projects
that
they
will
include
in
that
package,
and
so
with
that
we'll
figure
out
how
much
we
need
to
backfill
with
either
cash
or
other
bond
funds.
A
Okay,
great
thank
you,
and
then
you
mentioned
two
things
that
that
cut
my
ear
so
that
phosphorus
removal
at
lander
street.
It's
my
memory
and
you
can
correct
me
we,
the
original
permit.
We
got
required
the
phosphorus
removal
at
the
west,
boise
treatment
plant
and
then
a
time
period
within
which
we
had
to
bring
lander
street
into
that.
So
how?
Where
are
we
in
in
the
permit
time
period?
If
you
will
am
I
correct
on
that
and
are
we
working
toward
that.
I
K
Madam
mayor
council
members,
we
are
just
towards
the
end
of
the
10-year
schedule,
compliance
that
was
in
the
2012
permit
that
required
summertime.
Phosphorus
slimmer
has
summertime
phosphorus
limits
for
both
facilities.
We
anticipate
kind
of
the
renewal
or
the
first
issuance
of
our
deq,
our
ipds
permit
within
the
next
few
months.
The
biggest
change
that's
occurred
in
the
last
several
years
is
that
we'll
have
year
round
requirements.
A
That's
helpful
and
then
my
last
question
is
on
capacity
and
we
heard
some
comments
during
the
bond
election,
despite
the
really
great
support
that
we
got
about
ensuring
that
new
growth
does
pay
for
itself
to
the
degree
that
that
we're
able
to
use
mechanisms
to
do
that,
and
so
I'm
a
little
curious
on
the
capacity
we'll
we'll
using
the
bonding.
If
we
use
bonding
to
build
new
capacity,
will
that
then
be
paid
for
with
the
revenue.
H
I
Madam
mayor
growth
does
pay
for
growth
and
our
rate
structure
is
set
up
to
accommodate
that.
So
we
do
have
connection
fees
that,
where
a
new
customer,
when
they
connect
to
the
system,
they
pays
that
connection
they
pay
the
connection
fee
to
buy
into
our
system,
so
to
speak,
so
they're
repaying
the
investment
from
our
existing
customers.
So
the
bond
financing
helps
to
extend
out
the
time
of
payment
for
these
new
assets.
L
Thank
you,
madam
mayor.
Yes
heather,
I
just
wanted
to
say
I
really
appreciate
the
timeline
that
you've
laid
out
and
you're
you're,
jumping
right
in
and
getting
on
really
on
top
of
this
issue,
and
also
I
just
wanted
to
congratulate
your
entire
public
works
department.
I
think
this
was
a
huge
win
for
our
entire
city
and
the
taxpayers
and
the
environment,
and
it's
it
was
just
hand
down
hands
down
one
of
the
most
exciting
things
to
see
it
such
a
landslide
victory.
L
A
Other
comments
or
questions
well.
Thank
you.
This
is
a
really
exciting
time
and
echoing
council
member
thompson,
you
know
good
work
by
everyone
involved
in
this
and
thank
you
to
the
citizens
of
the
city
of
boise
for
understanding
taking
the
time
to
understand
what
it
was.
We
were
trying
to
do,
how
we
were
trying
to
do
it
and
and
supporting
us
and
doing
so.
Thank
you.
H
H
A
M
M
To
request
that
we
engage
in
a
pilot
management
program
and
so
following
council
direction
and
the
feedback
that
we
received
from
the
community
we
have
for
the
last
seven
months.
I
guess
implemented
pilot
management
programs
on
four
trails
in
the
ridge
to
river
system,
and
the
main
reason
for
this
was
because
users
wanted
us
to
improve
safety
and
to
help
improve
their
experience
on
the
trail
system.
We've
seen,
obviously
exponential
increase
in
trail
use
in
the
last
two
three
years.
M
So
just
to
remind
you
of
how
we
got
to
this
point,
we've
actually
been
asking
trail
users
similar
questions
since
2016
at
the
time
when
we
did
the
10-year
management
plan
for
the
ridge
to
reverse
trail
system
and
at
that
time
nobody
wanted
to
really
engage
in.
You
know
separating
use
or
trying
something
different
that
changed
dramatically
in
2021
2020
and
so
with
the
support
and
kind
of
direction
from
our
users
through
a
public
virtual
public,
open
house
and
a
follow-up
survey
in
february
and
march.
M
M
I
want
to
make
sure
that
I
am
clear
before
we
go
through
all
this
you're
going
to
see
the
word
permanent
in
here,
and
I
don't
want
there
to
be
a
misconception
that
we
we
will
not
be
continuing
to
seek
feedback
from
our
trail
users
on
these
strategies,
even
the
recommendations
that
we're
going
to
be
bringing
before
you
today,
although
they
may
be,
you
know
the
path
we
take
moving
forward,
it's
hard
to
say
that
they
will
be
permanent
right.
Our
trail
users
are
changing.
Our
trail
system
is
changing.
M
And
it
continues
to
be
something
folks
are
very,
very
passionate
about
it's
the
trail
that
we
receive
the
most
feedback
on
given
the
feedback.
53
percent
of
folks
of
trail
users
in
february
wanted
this
odd,
even
day
approach.
It's
nice
to
see
that
that
support
has
increased
a
little
bit.
It
tells
me
that
you
know,
after
trying
it
out
for
a
few
months,
that
it
seemed
to
be
working.
M
I
think
the
challenge
there
is
that,
and
we
we've
got
a
lot
of
questions
like
I
said
so
we're
going
to
be
posting
a
frequently
asked
questions
statement
on
our
website
to
answer
some
of
those
questions,
but
a
few
of
them
related
to
you
know:
mountain
bikers
having
a
downhill
day.
Basically,
where
there's
no
other
use
and
that's
really
a
safety
question,
I
really
and
we
made
that
decision
based
on
safety.
M
Obviously,
mountain
bikers
have
you
know
higher
speed
and
pose
risks
around
blind
corners,
but
we
are
recommending
to
continue
this
odd,
even
day
strategy
based
on
the
feedback,
with
the
understanding
that
we're
going
to
need
to
continue
to
educate
and
engage
our
users
a
lot
of
the
input
that
we
received
related
to
how
this
was
confusing
and
challenging.
So
we
have
a
a
charge
to
continue
to
try
and
seek
ways
to
make
it
easier
and
also
to
seek
more
input.
M
H
C
M
F
M
Madam
mayor
council,
member
sanchez,
great
yes,
I
love
that
idea.
We've
been
working
closely
with
ada
county
their
I.t
department
because
to
enhance
our
interactive
maps,
so
there
can
be
pop-ups
and
things
like
that,
but
it
is
available
to
make
it
more
mobile-friendly
and
that's
something
we're
going
to
be
pursuing
as
of
right.
Now
we
are
doing
our
best
to
integrate
the
online
resources
that
we
do
have
in
front
of
us
and
that's
something
I
can
definitely
pursue
with
our
registered
rivers
partners.
It's
a
great
idea.
I
mean
you're,
absolutely
right.
D
M
Thank
you,
council
member
wedding,
mad
mayor
yeah,
for
the
most
part
folks
are
complying
with
the
rules,
and
things
are
running
fairly
smoothly.
There's
a
lot
of
support
for
this
this
management
strategy.
Here,
I
think
we
ran
into
some
challenges
at
the
beginning.
With
regard
to
just
habits,
you
know
people
not
paying
attention
to
new
signage
that
came
up
or
making
sure
the
signs
are
really
visible
and
easy
to
understand.
M
M
So
paul
cat
loop,
this,
if
you'll
recall,
was
a
directional
loop
strategy
in
the
original
survey.
The
support
for
a
directional
strategy
here
was
strong,
but
the
details
on
how
we
did
it
were
sort
of
murky
and
the
feedback
that
we
received
from
this.
This
survey
kind
of
follows
that
so
the
majority
of
folks
about
two-thirds
of
people
on
foot
and
eight
out
of
ten
hikers
or
bikers
excuse
me
are
in
support
of
a
directional
strategy.
Okay,
so
there's
notch
one
right.
M
We
know
we're
headed
in
the
right
direction,
so
to
speak,
but
then
what
direction
is
kind
of
where
things
get
a
little
complicated?
We
got
a
lot
of
feedback
on
email
and
on
social
media
and
through
the
first
survey
that
hikers
and
people
on
foot
wanted
to
have
an
experience
where
they
could
go
both
directions.
M
So
we
tweaked
the
polecat
loop
management
strategy
to
allow
for
a
couple
of
out
and
back
opportunities
and
then
started
to
think
through.
Maybe
we
adjust
the
direction
on
a
yearly
basis,
so
that
people
who
want
to
experience
that
trail
in
a
cap
in
a
clockwise
fashion
have
that
opportunity,
and
that
is
supported
just
barely
by
by
people
on
foot.
They
want
to
have
that
opportunity.
M
So
we
are
recommending
that
for
2022
we
switch
the
direction
based
on
that
feedback
and
allow
users
to
experience,
pull
cat
loop
in
a
clockwise
direction
and
then
again
come
back
in
a
year
and
see
what
the
feedback
is.
What
the
direction
for
moving
forward
would
be.
Do
we
want
to
switch
it
up
every
other
year?
Do
we
want
to
keep
it
one
direction?
M
Around
the
mountain
up
in
the
bogus
basin
area
was
again
a
directional
trail.
This
was
widely
supported
by
mountain
bikers
86
percent,
widely
supported
by
folks
on
foot
trail,
runners,
74
and
hikers
65
percent.
So
we
are
recommending
that
we
continue
to
work
with
bogus
basin
and
the
forest
service
to
continue
to
implement
this
strategy.
Moving
forward.
M
M
This
is
a
situation
where
we
took
an
existing
trail,
bucktail
and
separated
use
by
creating
bucktail
to
be
a
downhill.
Mountain
biking
trail
only
and
then
built
a
new
trail
nearby,
where
we
had
that
opportunity,
because
that's
not
always
an
option
that
is
pedestrian
only
so
we
truly
separated
youth
at
this
location
and
folks
were
really
supportive
of
it.
So
we
are
recommending
that
we
move
forward
with
continuing
to
have
bucktail
trail,
downhill,
mountain
biking
only
and
continuing
to
have
two
points:
trail
pedestrian.
Only.
M
It's
been
a
team
effort,
our
ce
team,
our
it
folks,
have
been
super
helpful
in
making
sure
that
we
design
things
that
make
sense
and
are
clear
and
that
we're
threading
that
I,
like
those
those
symbols,
those
icons
throughout
all
of
our
communication
methods.
So
if
you
go
on
to
the
interactive
map,
you're
going
to
see
that
logo
or
that
icon
to
help
you
notice,
oh
there's
something
different
at
this
spot.
M
I
also
wanted
to
give
you
an
example
of
how
we've
been
responding
to
feedback
and
trying
to
do
better
as
we
go
along.
What
we
have
out
on
the
system
today
is
that
sign
on
the
left
and
then
what
we're
going
to
be
moving
forward
with,
should
counsel
affirm
this
just
this
direction
would
be.
What
is
shown
on
the
right-
and
I
think
it's
it's-
it's
subtle
changes
that
seem
to
make
a
big
difference
in
the
ability
to
quickly
and
clearly
understand
the
signage.
M
M
So,
just
a
couple
of
points
I
wanted
to
make
before
going
to
next
steps
and
and
closing
up
the
over
the
the
resounding
feedback
we
received
was
thank
you
for
trying
something
new.
Thank
you
for
listening
to
our
feedback
and
innovating
and
just
seeing
what
we
all
learn-
and
I
was
pretty
excited
to
be
a
part
of
this
project
to
see
how,
generally
speaking,
everybody
was
excited
to
try
something
new.
Yes,
it
changed
habits
and
that's
hard,
but
they
understood
our
community
is
changing.
Our
trail
system
is
changing.
M
We
can't
manage
200
miles
of
trails.
The
same
way
we
have
for
the
last
30
years
again.
Safety
is
the
main
driver
of
all
of
this
and
user
feedback,
and
I
want
there
to
be
clear
that
we
received
input
and
engagement
pretty
equally
between
foot
foot,
traffic
and
bikers
on
all
of
our
surveys.
It
was,
it
was
pretty
equal,
50,
50
in
terms
of
users,
so
that
makes
me
confident
that
we're
doing
our
best
to
represent
everyone
and
provide
an
experience
for
everyone.
M
Obviously,
the
survey
materials,
the
assessment
that
we
worked
through
and,
like
I
said
those
frequently
asked
questions,
we'll
put
those
up
on
the
website
and
do
our
best
to
facilitate
further
communications
with
our
users.
A
couple
things
I
wanted
to
mention:
I'm
hopeful.
We
are
embarking
on
a
partnership
with
bsu,
where
I'm
hopeful
that
we'll
be
able
to
build
a
student,
happy
trails
ambassadors
program.
We
currently
have
a
ranger
program:
volunteers
who
wear
a
jersey
head
out:
don't
have
any
enforcement
authority
but
help
educate
folks,
they
were
instrumental
in
this
effort.
M
They
targeted
those
trails
they
engaged
and
interacted
with
users.
In
a
you
know,
positive
friendly,
welcoming
way
to
help
them
understand,
hey
something's,
different
here
right
and
I'm
hopeful
that
we
will
be
able
to
expand
that
for
an
opportunity
for
college
students
and
then
the
last
thing
I'll
mention
is.
M
We
are
working
on
the
creation
of
hawkins,
the
trails
at
the
hawkins
range
reserve
and
a
trailhead
and
based
on
the
feedback
that
we
used
to
have
received
here
and
from
our
partners
that
loop
will
be
directional
and
we
will
also
be
looking
at
offering
a
smaller
out
and
back
opportunity,
given
that
we've
heard
that
so
much
from
folks
in
the
polecat
area.
You
know
I
don't
necessarily
want
to
run
or
hike
or
bike
seven
miles.
Can
I
have
an
opportunity
to
still
engage.
M
A
G
G
I
think
the
direction
that
you've
got
going
forward
is
is
wonderful
and
it's
great
happy
to
affirm
that
I
am
curious
if,
in
some
of
the
feedback,
if
people
enjoy
the
changes
enough,
that
they
are
asking
or
wanting
to
see
them
incorporated
in
other
areas
as
well,
I
think
one
of
the
hard
things
about
change
is,
if
you
feel
like
there's
going
to
be
a
loss
that
goes
with
it,
but
when
there's
change
where
you're
actually
like.
Oh,
this
is
a
better
user
experience
for
me.
G
M
M
We
hope
to
make
those
decisions
about
whether
or
not
these
types
of
management
strategies
are
expanded
onto
other
cert
onto
other
trails
based
on
the
safety
and
experience
that
prompted
this.
So
we
don't
have
trails
identified
right
now
that
we
would
be
expanding
to
other
than
hawkins
range
reserve.
But,
given
that
we
are
going
to
be
in
an
annual
communication
and
feedback
discussion
with
our
users,
I
wouldn't
be
surprised
if
other
trails
pop
up
as
use
changes
and
our
community
grows.
M
It
is
worth
noting
that
you
know
it
is
a
mosaic
of
land
ownership
up
there,
and
so
it's
it's
not
as
easy
to
make
this
make
these
changes
on
other
places
where
it
might
seem
easy.
We
have
to
work
with
partners
to
make
sure
that
happens,
but
you
know
that's
that's
what
that's
what
we
do
absolutely
and.
G
Madame
just
quick
follow-up,
I
think
you've
created
a
great
template
for
if
other
things
are
ever
to
be
explored
and
how
to
do
it
and
how
to
do
it
in
a
way
where
the
community
feels
really
engaged.
So
again,
you
know
thank
you
for
the
job
well
done,
and
thanks
for
creating
a
kind
of
a
platform
that
could
potentially
be
used
going
forward.
L
M
D
Thank
you,
sarah,
and
I
was
really
pleased
to
see
how
many
people
responded
to
those
surveys,
because
sometimes
when
it's
like.
Oh
it's
only
a
couple
hundred
people,
it's
really
hard
to
say
that
that
sentiment
is
widespread,
but
when
it's
in
the
thousands
that
makes
it
a
little
bit
more
statistically
significant.
D
I
really
liked
the
updated
designs
on
the
signage,
and
I
do
I
do
agree
with
what
you
were
saying
that
also
signing
the
trails
that
are
for
all
users
and
that
have
no
restrictions
is
also
a
really
great
idea.
I
think
that
it
kind
of
builds,
an
expectation
that
you
know
like
when
you
go
to
a
trail
and
you're
like
oh,
is
this
an
on
leash
trail
or
an
off
leash
trail
that
you'll
be
able
to
kind
of
make
those
determinations
at
the
at
the
trail
head
and
by
looking
at
that
signage?
D
So
I
think
that
that's
a
really
great
idea
just
to
provide
that
little
bit
of
additional
clarity-
and
you
know
some
people
just
aren't
going
to
want
to
deal
with
figuring
out
if
they
can
use
a
trail
or
not.
So
maybe
they'll
just
go
to
the
ones
that
are
all
users
all
directions
and
that's
a
little
bit
lower
barrier.
So
thank
you
for
all
of
your
work
on
this.
I
know
that
it
was
a
big
risk
and
you
know
a
lot
of
unknowns,
but
it
seems
like
it's
been
really
successful.
So
congratulations.
A
J
J
This
is
a
list
of
the
projects
that
I
will
be
providing
an
update
on.
Please
note:
I'm
providing
updates
on
behalf
of
a
few
of
the
project
owners
who
are
aware
that
I'm
providing
updates
on
their
behalf.
In
all
of
those
instances,
the
project
owner
is
coming
back
with
more
information
and
detailed
recommendations
at
the
conclusion
at
the
natural
conclusion
of
the
current
phase
that
they
are
in
the
first
two
projects
I
will
update
you
on
are
led
by
sierra
garatena,
who
is
in
the
community
engagement
department.
J
Their
focus
as
a
as
a
diverse
group,
that
is
the
task
force,
was
on
aspects
of
quality
of
community
life,
so
they
focused
really
on
access
to
recreation,
opportunities,
transportation,
ability
to
communicate
resources
across
all
of
residents.
You
know
across
residents,
as
well
as
community
city
organizational
pieces
like
parking
or
communication.
J
They
came
up
with
nine
recommendations
that
staff
is
now
conducting
feasibility
research
into
and
that
feasibility
research
is
also
inclusive
of
impact
in
considering
impact
full
projects
within
that
prioritization,
they
are
coming
together
with
those
recommendations
and
we'll
share
those
with
council
for
feedback
and
direction.
Later
this
month,.
J
In
the
same
vein,
related
because
it
is,
sierra,
sierra
has
been
working
closely
with
a
consultant
who
completed
a
first
phase
of
the
language.
Access
touch
points
that
are
that
are
found
throughout
our
city,
and
they
completed
that
in
early
october
they
focused
their
data
collection
efforts
on
looking
at
what
the
languages
are,
that
people
are
speaking
and
coming
to
the
city
with
and
the
number
of
of
those
people
throughout
boise.
J
They
also
conducted
a
survey
of
staff
to
look
at
the
capacity
and
current
offerings
in
this
realm
and
are
now
putting
together
a
list
of
recommendations
with
detailed
information
on
how
to
implement
that
will
also
come
to
council
later
this
month
for
feedback
and
input.
It
has
been
a
busy
time
for
sierra.
J
Switching
gears
a
little
bit,
we
have
a
body
of
work
that
the
public
works.
Climate
team
has
spent
a
significant
time
on
over
the
past
year
and
some
change.
I
believe
they
have
done
some
good
work,
identifying
and
mapping
meaningful
metrics
throughout
the
city
that
are
related
to
environment,
health
and
equity
across
the
city
geographies.
J
A
Chloe
just
an
example
of
how
that's
already
paying
off
the
city
of
trees.
Challenge
has
its
own
gis
system
and
our
clean
cities
index
was
able
to
plug
into
that
in
such
a
way
that
we
were
we're
very
confident
that
going
forward
we're
going
to
be
able
to
target
the
trees
with
an
equity
focus
in
a
much
bigger
way
than
than
we
thought
was
going
to
be
possible.
Because
of
this
index.
J
Another
example
of
the
work
that
is
taking
place
representation
is
an
important
part
of
the
city's
dei
work
and
since
2020
over
60
boiseans
have
been
appointed
to
on
the
16
city
boards
and
commissions
early
last
year.
The
application
process
was
adjusted
to
a
cast
a
wider
net
into
the
community
to
ensure
that
appointees
and
applicants
are
coming
from
a
range
of
different
backgrounds,
parts
of
the
city
and
are
thus
bringing
new
experiences
and
perspectives
into
our
decision-making
bodies.
J
J
Restoration
of
the
house
is
scheduled
to
be
completed
in
early
2022,
with
a
ribbon
cutting
planned
for
spring
too,
so
that
the
weather
can
accommodate
a
larger
gathering
outside
in
between
now
and
then
programming
is
being
developed.
Options
and
opportunities
are
being
explored
in
conjunction
with
the
neighborhood
and
with
the
task
force.
J
The
boise
police
department
has
embarked
on
an
exciting
human
rights
training
program.
Earlier
this
year,
chief
lee
developed
his
vision
for
a
curriculum
that
would
deliver
specific
content
based
on
an
officer's
rank
and
job
duties
throughout
the
course
of
their
career
in
the
department.
So,
for
example,
content
learnings
takeaways
will
be
different
for
a
patrol
officer
at
a
certain
point
in
their
career
versus
a
command
staff
officer.
J
So
this
effort
has
begun
in
earnest.
Last
week,
six
officers
began
a
course
with
the
national
center
for
civil
and
human
rights,
which
is
a
museum
in
atlanta
and
they're
attending
a
virtual
training
that
will
then
sort
of
lead
into
other
officers
attending
and
a
broader
look
at
what
the
curriculum
is
out
there.
So
we
can
develop
something:
that's
boise
specific.
J
Finally,
the
internal
work
of
the
city
continues,
and
the
idea
is
that
all
of
these
programs
that
I
just
updated
you
on
are
sort
of
living
within
this
foundation.
That
is
the
the
internal
assessment
that
is
phase
two.
We
have
scoped
it
into
two
different
areas.
The
first
area
is
to
hire
someone
to
really
set
the
strategy
and
the
focus
areas
for
the
next
couple
of
years,
and
that
the
intention
is
to
work
with
the
executive
management
team
to
develop
out
what
are
those?
J
What
is
the
commitment,
the
statement
of
commitment,
the
definitions
of
dei
and
then,
therefore,
where
are
we
going
to
want
to
focus
in
the
in
the
coming
years?
We
have
received
rfps
and
are
going
through
those.
Now
we
intend
to
have
a
recommendation
by
the
end
of
this
month
to
begin
the
work
in
january.
J
Very
related
is
the
scope,
the
second
scope
of
this.
We
know
that
that
most
likely,
a
significant
focus
area
is
going
to
be
on
what
we're
calling
the
life
cycle
of
an
employee.
So
from
the
moment,
the
city
of
boise
comes
into
the
awareness
of
a
potential
applicant
to
recruitment
process,
hiring
onboarding
and
then
how
the
employee
is
existing
and
contributing.
As
a
city
employee,
we
want
someone
to
come
in
with
a
sort
of
you
know.
J
Third,
third-party
assessment
of
what
our
process
is
and
be
able
to
provide
recommendations
and
insights
of
best
practices
of
what
we
can
do
so
based
on
who
we
chat
with
as
a
part
of
the
rfp
process,
we'll
be
able
to
refine
that
scope
and
get
that
out
to
begin
the
work
at
the
beginning
of
the
year.
Hopefully
as
well.
D
J
Account,
madam
mayor
council,
member
weddings.
That
is
a
good
question,
as
we
have
scoped
it
now
and
are
thinking
of
it.
We're
really
considering
the
the
sort
of
experience
of
the
potential
employee
and
then,
as
someone
becomes
an
employee,
we
haven't
quite
talked
about
it
in
terms
of
the
benefits
or
in
terms
of
but
but
very
related
and
aligned,
and
I
think,
as
as
we
get
someone
to
come
in
and
provide
their
expertise,
we'll
find
where
that
bumps
up.
If
that
makes
sense
where
there
is
overlap,
yup
that.
J
Madam
mayor
councilman,
member
of
agent,
yes,
the
idea
is
that
they'll
be
able
to
come
in
even
in
goal
one
and
say:
okay,
here's
what
we've
heard
are
your
values
and
here's.
What
we've
heard?
What
you
know
your
north
star
is,
and
then
here's
where
you
are
sort
of
at
as
a
baseline
and
then,
if,
if
these
are
the
areas
that
you
want
to
make
progress
in
you
know
this
is
how
we'll
be
able
to
track
it.
A
Much
all
right,
we
are
on
to
item
number
five,
we're
even
on
time
or
oh,
let's
see
we're
yeah
multi-family
housing
in
the
american
west
and
we'd
like
to
welcome
brandy
burns
and
for
those
of
you
who
don't
know
brandy's
leaving
us.
It's
always
wonderful
that
we
have
employees
who
get
really
great
opportunities.
A
N
A
N
N
I
of
course
gave
them
my
background
and
that,
yes,
I
am
the
history
programs
manager
for
the
city,
but
I
actually
studied
urban
sprawl
and
new
urbanism.
During
my
thesis
work
and
my
thesis
one:
a
grow
smart
award
from
idaho,
smart
growth
back
in
the
day,
so
I
still
feel
quite
dedicated
to
the
issues
of
growth
and
how
cities
grow.
N
These
were
their
learning
objectives
with
this
lovely
photo
look
overlooking
anne
morrison
park
here.
This
is
park,
the
parkview
apartments.
I,
of
course,
because
I
studied
urban
renewal.
I
wanted
them
to
make
sure
that
they
knew
about
the
effects
of
urban
renewal
and
those
development
policies
from
the
mid
century
and
then
explore
these
specific
case
studies.
N
So
I
started
them
in
new
york
with
tenement
buildings,
because
this
is
really
pretty
much
our
first
modern-day
conception
of
multi-family
housing.
It
was
really
common
for
multiple
families
to
live
in
the
same
household
before
the
19th
century,
especially
unrelated
families.
That's
just
the
way
things
were,
but
as
cities
grew
more
affordable
housing
needed
there
was
a
need
for
more
affordable
housing
within
urban
centers,
and
then
you
started
to
see
tenements
develop.
N
But
the
word
tenement
really
only
meant
that
it
was
any
building
accommodating
three
or
more
households
under
a
single
roof.
So
they
were
really
from
the
beginning,
just
multi-family
housing
units,
but
they
quickly
got
a
bad
reputation
and
so
here's
an
example
of
some
documentation
of
the
terrible
conditions
that
many
low-income
families
were
faced
with,
and
then
they
had
no
control
over,
and
this
was
at
a
time
that
there
were
few
to
no
regulations.
So
it
was
really
just
up
to
the
landlord
if
they
were
going
to
make
any
changes.
N
I
also
wanted
to
point
out
to
them
that
these
were
places
where
people
really
had
no
control
they
over
their
surroundings.
They
needed
these
low.
They
needed
the
low
income
housing
to
be
able
to
be
close
enough
to
jobs.
They
were
really
just
trying
to
make
ends
meet
and
often
all
of
the
family
members
or
most
of
the
family
members
contributed
to
the
household
income.
N
This
is
one
example
of
some
children
assisting
a
woman
who
is
likely
their
mother
to
make
artificial
flowers
in
their
home,
and
then
this
caption
this
photo
is
essentially
the
same
as
the
the
last
one,
but
it
had
a
really
great
caption
and
I'm
just
going
to
read
that
to
you
quote
family
of
mrs
met
making
flowers
in
a
very
dirty
tenement,
302
mott
street
top
floor,
josephine
13
years
old,
helps
outside
of
school
hours
until
9
00
pm.
Sometimes
she
is
soon
to
be
14
and
expects
to
go
to
work
in
an
embroidery
factory.
N
She
says
she
worked
in
that
factory
all
last
summer,
nicholas
six
years
old
and
johnny
eight
years
old
work.
Some
so
does
rosie
11
years
old,
not
in
photo
who
has
been
sick
a
good
deal
all
together
earn
only
40
to
50
cents
a
day
baby,
20
months
old
plays
with
the
flowers
and
they
expect
he
can
help
a
little
before
long.
The
father
drives
a
coach
or
hack
irregularly
december
1911
end
quote
so
that
caption
alone
really
tells
you
a
story
of
the
type
of
people
who
ended
up.
N
You
know
calling
these
places
home
like
they
were
really
just
trying
to
make
ends
meet
and
because
of
the
way
their
situations
were,
I
mean
they
were
barely
scrapping
by
their
was
a
rise
in
housing
reform
about
this
time
because
of
the
work
of
a
lot
of
journalists.
Looking
at
the
conditions
that
these
families
faced,
I'm
going
to
quote
from
gwendolyn
wright,
who's,
an
architectural
historian
and
she
wrote
building
the
dream.
N
At
this
time
when
housing
reform
began,
and
this
book
came
out
how
the
other
half
lives
by
jacob
reese
in
1890,
and
it
became
a
landmark
for
housing
reform.
There
were
a
lot
of
new
laws
that
be
that
were
established
that
helped
set
minimum
standards
for
multi-family
dwellings
and
other
programs
began
to
develop
and
it
it
affected
across
the
country.
It
took
some
time
to
spread,
but
it
did
have
long
range
effects,
and
I
do
like
to
point
out
that
all
multi-family
housing
at
this
time
also
existed
on
a
spectrum.
N
Much
like
it
does.
Today.
One
side
you
did
have
slums
and
tenements
and
on
the
other
you
had
the
french
flats
or
other
multi-family
dwellings
or
apartments
that
catered
to
the
wealthy,
and
this
is
one
example
of
of
the
the
doralton
in
new
york
in
1908,
and
what
I
found
really
interesting
is
in
the
west.
You
see
this
spectrum
of
low-income
to
wealthy
multi-family
housing
units,
and
you
even
see
it
here
in
boise.
N
N
N
N
N
N
It
also
noted
the
paper
noted
that
the
demand
for
dwellings
in
boise
has
been
so
much
in
advance
of
the
supply
that
a
building
of
this
character
will
be
appreciated
by
home
seekers.
So
you're
gonna
see
throughout
here
that
they're
we're
in
a
in
a
housing
crunch
now,
and
it's
not
the
first
time
that
that
has
happened.
N
One
of
the
major
before
I
could
show
you
some
other
one
of
the
first
landmarks
that
I
want
to
talk
about.
Is
this
progressive
era
for
multi-family
housing?
This
is
when
we
do
see
the
housing
reform
in
the
tenement
buildings,
the
reform
really
aimed
to
improve
sanitation,
ventilation,
light
and
fire
protection.
I
mean
one
of
the
very
first
ordinances
that
the
city
passed.
The
city
of
boise
pass
was
a
fire
protection
ordinance
in
1867..
N
N
Zoning
efforts
started
and
there
were
criticisms
towards
multi-family
housing,
even
though
they
were
really
popular
people
criticized
them
a
lot
even
to
the
point
that
quote:
apartment
living
was
thought
to
promote
sexual
promiscuity,
which
felt
which
some
felt
would
surely
lead
to
the
demise
of
the
family.
Others
even
said
that
children
could
not
grow
up
normally
unless
they
lived
in
a
single
family
house.
N
N
The
caption
says
not
only
an
evil
in
itself,
but
the
vice
crime
and
disease.
It
breeds
invade
the
homes
of
rich
and
poor
alike,
and
the
illustration
is
highlighting
the
spirits
of
alcoholism,
opium
dens,
prostitution,
gambling
and
street
crime,
as
well
as
the
figure
of
death
up
here
playing
the
violin.
N
I
think
he's
playing
the
violin
yes,
so
they
there
was
a
lot
of
criticism
towards
multi-family
housing
that
they,
they
weren't
clean,
that
they
weren't
places
of
good
moral
virtue,
which
is
entirely
untrue,
as
we
can
see
from
the
family
that
caption
of
just
how
they
were
trying
to
make
ends
meet.
And
despite
all
of
the
criticism,
the
popularity
of
them
continued
and
developers
continued
to
build
multi-family
housing
units
and
continue
to
this
day.
So
the
next
phase
of
development
is
kind
of
depression
or
world
war
ii.
Construction.
N
N
N
N
N
N
So
you,
you
do
see
this
kind
of
ethnic
story
of
of
clearing
and
demolishing
in
in
boise's
story
of
urban
renewal.
This
here
is
the
is
a
photo
from
the
statesman.
You'll
recognize
the
egyptian
theater
right
here.
It
was
called
the
ada
theater
at
the
time,
and
this
building
was
actually
built
by
mary
macar
mccarthy.
N
N
This
is
an
image
of
just
about
where
we're
at
tonight.
This
is
the
block
where
city
hall
stands.
You
can
just
see
the
edelman
right
over
here
and
then
this
building
still
stands
today,
but
after
urban
renewal
we
enter
a
new
era
of
multi-family
housing
development,
as
more
private
developments
begin
to
occur.
N
We
see
private
apartment,
buildings
built,
condos
senior
housing,
that's
built
with
public
funds
and
even
low-income
subsidized
housing.
During
this
time
and
like
I
said,
this
was
the
parkview
apartments
being
constructed
overlooking
and
morrison
park,
and
I'm
sure
you
can
all
guess
that
it
was
a
privately
funded,
more
wealthy
development.
N
K
N
If
I
speak
a
little
louder,
does
that
help?
Okay,
all
right
I'll
get
a
little
closer,
so
these
imperial
plaza
apartments
still
exist
today,
they're
they're,
really
quite
lovely
they're
advertised
as
high-rise
seclusion,
offering
a
magnificent
panoramic
view
of
the
boise
valley
and
its
picturesque
mountains.
N
They
were
developed
next
to
just
east
to
the
parkview
apartments.
They
were
going
to
be
a.
They
are
a
40
unit,
complex
with
detached
garage
in
1969.
The
paper
said:
parkview
east
will
provide
perfect
privacy
and
security,
lovely
outdoor
recreation
facilities,
covered
parking,
private
elevator
service
and
a
wealth
of
outstanding
features
designed
to
make
your
living
pleasant.
That's
they
were
also
advertised.
As
for
people
who
desire
total
convenience
and
because
condos
the
law
was
new.
N
At
this
time,
they
pointed
out
that
you
have
full
ownership
of
your
unit,
plus
a
share
of
the
ownership
of
lovely
surroundings
so
going
to
the
law
for
condominiums.
They
were
authorized
in
1961
under
section
234
of
the
national
housing
act,
and
what
this
did
by
by
adding
it
to
the
housing
act.
Is
it
enabled
mortgage
insurance
for
condominium
units
which
really
opened
up
financing
for
wannabe
condo
owners
and
the
only
catch
was
that
the
state
where
the
condos
would
be
located
also
had
to
have
a
condominium
act
and
idaho
passed
theirs
in
1965?
N
So
only
four
years
later,
boise's
first
condo
was
planned.
The
paper
did
note
that
the
reason
why
idaho
was
really
gonna
move
forward
with
this
law
was
because
the
jans
corporation
of
california
had
purchased
the
sun
valley
resort
and
wanted
to
build
condos
up
there,
but
there
was
not
just
interest
there.
There
was
interest
here
too.
N
They
also
this
just
harkens
back
to
early
tenement
times.
One
of
the
criticism
criticisms
was,
you
know
you
don't
want
to
live
in
a
tenement,
because
those
nosy
neighbors
of
yours
are
going
to
know
everything
about
you
and
what
you're
talking
about-
and
you
see
it
here,
even
in
boise
that
what
they
featured
10
inch
thick
walls
between
apartments
for
sound
proofing,
so
even
by
the
60s,
there
was
still
some
concerns
about
privacy.
N
N
They
were
called
the
first
rent
supplement
housing
to
low-income
families
in
boise,
20
units
were
available
by
november
of
1969
and
20
more
were
ready
by
the
next
month
and
all
of
the
treatment
that
they
get
in
the
paper
is
that
they'll
have
a
small
electric
cooking
facilities.
Carpeting
in
two
bedrooms,
you
had
to
make
less
than
thirty
six
hundred
dollars
to
apply
for
an
apartment
and
rent
raise
rent
ranged
from
thirty
six
dollars
to
eighty
eight
dollars
a
month
with
federal,
rent
substitute
subsidy
of
about
50
percent.
N
So
you
don't
get
to
see
like
live
here
and
see
this
beautiful,
lawn
and
modern
conveniences,
and
all
that
you
don't
get
that
here.
We
also
had
a
need
for
student
housing.
These
are
the
university
village
apartments
that
are
still
standing.
That's
another
really
significant
thing
that
I
pointed
out
for
usgbc
was
that
these
multi-family
housing
units
that
we
would
consider
historic
are
actually
still
standing
and
serving
their
original
purpose
as
housing
for
multiple
families.
N
These
were
at
a
time
of
course,
when
we
were
having
a
housing
shortage.
The
paper
said:
the
housing
shortage
in
boise
meant
that
at
times
during
construction,
students
were
living
in
partially
completed
apartments
without
even
roofs,
and
some
were
sleeping
in
sleeping
bags
on
lawns
in
the
neighborhood.
So
that's
1969..
N
N
They
contained
160
units
all
reserved
for
senior
citizens,
and
the
paper
was
very
clear
to
point
out
that
there
is
no
local
financial
participation
in
the
program
housing
authority
director,
ernest
ludwig
said
so
there
was
this
fear
of
criticism
towards,
I
guess
local
participation
in
these
programs
and
again
you
do
not
find
any
amenities
being
emphasized
for
seniors
only
that
they
would
get
help
with
their
rent.
So
I
really
have
no
idea
the
type
of
I
mean
these
still
stand.
So,
of
course,
you
can
see
them
today.
N
They've
done
good
work,
we've
also
so
we've
sort
of
seen
the
spectrum
of
wealthy
private
condos
to
low
income,
student,
housing
and
elderly
housing
and
and
there's
still
this
sort
of
mid-level
that
I'm
just
calling
mid-level
apartments,
because
I
really
wasn't
sure
what
to
categorize
them,
as
these
are
off
of
overland
on
hartman
avenue.
This
is
a
modern
day
picture
of
them,
but
they
were
built
in
1971..
N
N
N
N
N
So
all
of
the
the
wood
and
steel
and
concrete
and
all
the
materials
that
it
took
to
to
build
that
house
or
that
structure
and
the
energy
it
took
to
get
it
to
that
location
and
all
of
the
energy
it
took
to
build.
It
is
embodied
in
that
building
and
once
you
demolish
it,
you
lose
that,
in
addition
to
the
costs
you
incur
of
building
and
another
new
building,
even
if
it's
going
to
be
a
really
green
building,
so
you
just
want
to
be
really
conscious
of
that.
J
N
Circumstances
that
they
end
up
having
to
face
in
those
periods,
high
life
condo
living
in
the
suburban
century
is
a
good
one,
and
then
this
whole
presentation
kind
of
doesn't
even
address
this.
This
phenomenon
of
downtown
hotels
that
served
as
living
facilities
and
that's
what
this
paul
groth
book
will
address.
Oh
and
now
it's
questions.
A
A
My
dad
got
a
job
in
boise.
There
was
no
place
to
live
and
they
lived
in
one
room
in
a.
I
guess
what
would
be
called
a
tenement
with
a
bathroom
down
the
hall
and
all
four
of
them
lived
there
for
almost
two
years,
because
there
literally
was
no
housing
in
boise
at
that
point
and
they
finally
bought
a
little
tiny
place
in
the
east
end
and
and
doubled
the
size
of
it
after
they
built
it.
A
H
F
I
just
I
really
appreciate
when
councilmember
willings
and
I
joined
four
years
ago.
I
think
you
gave
a
very
similar
presentation
about
the
history
of
boise
and
it
was
such
a
wonderful
way
to
start
our
time
here
because,
as
the
president
has
said,
history
repeats
itself,
and
so
I
I
loved
the
headlines
that
you
shared
with
us
from
the
early
statesmen,
where
people
were
talking
about
the
crowded
roads
and
very
similar
complaints
that
we
hear
now,
and
I
had
asked
that
you
do
a
presentation
like
this.
F
I
know
for
myself
oftentimes.
I
feel
like
I'm
the
only
one
talking
about
issues
of
discrimination
and
I'm
always
very
grateful
to
you
that
you
have
really
made
a
point
over
the
last
four
years
that
I've
been
here,
that
you
have
really
focused
on
that
in
all
the
talk
of
history
of
our
community
and
I'm
personally
very
grateful
for
that.
I'm
also
really
jealous
of
the
new
community
that
gets
to
benefit
from
your
talent
and,
most
importantly,
your
heart.
F
You
have
the
biggest
heart
brandy
and
any
community
member
that
is
crying
out
for
support
from
their
leaders.
That's
what
they
really
want.
They
want
people
who
care
about
them
and
what's
happening
to
them
and
that
they
make
space
for
them
to
advocate
for
themselves,
and
you've
always
done
that
brandy.
So
I
just
want
to
thank
you
for
that.
L
L
L
To
me
in
particular,
I
was,
I
also
grew
up
mostly
being
raised
by
a
single
mother
in
apartment,
and
all
I
know
is
in
idaho
falls
and
I
certainly
enjoyed
several
aspects
of
the
amenities
that
came
with
it
once
we
left
the
rural
environment
and
I
had
a
dishwasher
and
I
didn't
have
to
wash
all
the
dishes
by
hand
with
my
sister,
but
it's
it's
neat
to
see
how
the
history
has
has
played
out.
I
was.
It
was
remarkable
to
see
that
family
doing
the
flowers.
L
L
G
Member
beijing
almost
tied
me
to
there,
so
I
don't
have
any
questions
that
I
could
possibly
have
enough
time
to
cover
during
the
time
that
we
have
certainly
lots
of
questions
of
just
such
an
interesting
subject.
I
guess
the
main
thing
I
just
want
to
say
is
thank
you
for
this
presentation.
Specifically,
I
think
that
the
context
and
the
history
really
really
matters,
and
so
much
has
just
not
changed.
G
I've
had
the
the
great
opportunity
to
spend
a
lot
of
time
in
a
lot
of
our
apartment
complexes
across
the
valley,
specifically
ones
where
a
lot
of
our
refugee
families
live
and
continue
to
work
in
those
homes
as
a
family
doing
work
together.
Much
like
was
done
in
that
photo,
and
so
again
that
context,
I
think,
is,
is
really
really
important,
and
I
appreciate
you
bringing
it
up
and
the
value
that
that
adds
to
the
decisions
that
we
make
going
forward.
G
E
Madam
mayor,
a
couple
of
things:
first,
you
know
the
city
of
the
city
or
town
of
west
yellowstone
is
incredibly
fortunate.
I
hope
that
your
work
here
is
memorialized.
These
kinds
of
presentations
are
in
our
archives
somewhere,
so
that
people
can
go
see
them,
because
it's
just
wonderful
that
one
of
the
things
that
struck
me
about
your
presentation
today
that
I
see
all
the
time
when
I
you
know
I'm
exposed
to
things
like
this.
E
E
E
Theory
came
up
sort
of
emerged.
Women's
suffrage
was
born
out
of
that
period.
All
of
these
good
things
happened,
but
while
we
were
legislating
so
hard
for
the
good
culturally,
we
confused
the
good
with
our
perceptions
of
the
moral
good
at
that
time,
and
so
you
see
the
emergence
of
redlining
as
a
tactic
and
a
strategy
to
reinforce
racism,
you
see
zoning
used
to
promote
the
quote-unquote
good,
which
is
actually
just
upper
middle
class
comfort.
E
C
E
D
D
People
like
airline
pilots
lived
there
and
so
and
that's
kind
of
how
they
were
build,
and
then,
by
the
time
I
lived
there
as
a
young
professional
in
my
first
job
out
of
college,
they
were
very
affordable
apartments,
and
so
it's
just
interesting
to
see
the
evolution
of
multi-family.
In
that
way,
you
know
apartments
that
were
once
really
aimed
at
the
high
earners
are
now
housing,
kids
straight
out
of
college
in
their
very
first
career
in
walkable
neighborhoods.
You
know
without
parking
requirements
and
things
like
that,
and
so
I
really
appreciated.
D
I
really
appreciated
that
piece
of
your
presentation.
I
mean
I
loved
the
whole
thing,
but
that
was
something
that
kept
coming
top
of
mind.
It's
like
okay!
Well,
where
are
those
apartments
now
you
know
what?
What
purpose
are
those
apartments
that
were
built
for
this
purpose?
What
purpose
are
they
now
serving?
So
it
was
really
really
fascinating
and
it
gave
us
a
lot
to
think
about
as
we're
making
a
lot
of
these
decisions
all
the
time
about
multi-family
and
what
that
looks
like
in
our
community.
So
thanks,
brandi
I'll
miss
you
a
lot.
