The
third
item
on
the
agenda
is
the
consent
agenda.
All
asterisks
within
all
items
with
an
asterisk,
are
considered
to
be
routine
by
the
council
and
will
be
enacted
by
one
motion.
There
will
be
no
separate
discussion
on
these
items
unless
a
council,
member
or
citizen
so
requests,
in
which
case
the
item
will
be
removed
from
the
general
order
of
business
and
considered
in
its
normal
sequence.
E
E

Yes,
before
we
go
forward,
I
should
note
that
last
week
I
voted
on
a
resolution
that
did
include
jacobs.
There
were
two
resolutions
that
included
the
company
that
my
husband
works
for.
I
voted
on
one
of
those
and
should
not
have
because
he
does
work
on
that
contract.
I
just
wanted
to
note
for
the
record
that
I
am
abstaining
from
and
I'm
trying
to
find
the
number
and
I
apologize.
I
thought
I
had
it
written
down
here
resolution
382-20
from
last
week,
if,
if
that's
possible
as
a
reconsideration.
E
E
D
Madam
mayor,
yes,
I
move
approval
of
the
consent
consent
agenda
of
september
15
2020
with
the
council
president's
abstention,
noted.

Okay,
carries
you,
and
now
we
have
no
ordinances
or
hearings,
because
today
is
a
daytime
meeting
and
a
strategic
planning
session.
So
instead
we
will
have
staff
present
hello,
we'll
have
staff
present
today
on
three
different
topics
and
it
looks
like
first.
G
I
warned
steve
I
was
going
to
go
first
and
then
he
tried
anyways
hello,
mayor
council
members,
as
the
mayor
just
mentioned,
we're
here
to
today
to
provide
some
updates
on
strategic
initiatives
you
should
have
received
in
your
friday
council
memo
the
spreadsheet,
covering
what
we
believe
is
the
exhausted
list
of
strategic
initiatives.
G
G
That
is
not
the
best
way
to
manage
and
provide
updated
information
about
the
strategic
initiatives
and
amanda
will
follow
up
with
each
of
you
about
the
new
system
we're
going
to
use
moving
forward,
and
with
that
we
have
chosen
the
climate
division,
canals
pathways
and
economic
development
to
highlight
today
and
feel
free
to
ask
any
questions
or
provide
any
feedback
during
these
presentations,
and
then
we
can
follow
up
later.
If
something
else
comes
to
mind,
thanks.
H
H
I
just
wanted
to
provide
an
update
on
the
formation
of
the
climate
action
division
and
give
you
an
update
on
climate
action
work,
and
this
is
for
information.
Only
so
we'll
talk
about
overview
of
current
activities,
introduce
you
to
the
division
and
give
an
overview
of
the
roles
and
responsibilities
that
we're
proposing
and
just
a
quick
look
at
the
current
state
of
climate
work.
A
lot
of
our
work,
that's
been
happening
in
the
city
over
the
last
several
years
has
really
been
organic
to
the
different
kind
of
focus
areas
that
you
see
here.
H
We
know
we
knew
that
we
have
to
make
some
progress
on
energy,
for
example,
we
know
that
our
community
is
very
interested
in
waste
reduction,
and
so,
when
we
look
at
these
categories,
these
are
broadly
the
categories
that
we've
associated
with
past
sustainability
work
and
we've
made
good
progress
in
these
areas.
Some
of
the
examples
you
see
here
are
the
boise's
energy
future
project,
the
boise
transportation
action
plan.
Boise
airport
has
made
some
great
strides
on
energy
efficiency
and
converting
diesel
equipment
to
all-electric.
H
So
an
example
of
where
we're
integrating
some
of
the
some
of
these
kind
of
grassroots
projects
into
larger
initiatives,
another
one,
the
water
renewal
utility
plan
that
you're
all
aware
of
we
use
the
triple
bottom
approach
in
that
project,
where
we
try
to
integrate
things
like
the
social
cost
of
carbon,
integrate
things
like
the
benefits
of
a
drought
proof
water
supply.
H
If
you
recall,
we
had
a
climate
change
scenario
within
that
plan
we
talked
about
aligning
it
with
the
boyce's
energy
future.
So
the
point
is
that
we're
making
progress
in
certain
areas,
but
in
many
ways,
they've
been
disparate
and
kind
of
happening,
organically
and
not
tied
to
a
broader
plan,
a
broader
climate
action
plan
or
approach
and
then
again
other
things
that
we're
working
on
just
to
provide
some
updates
on
on
current
initiatives.
The
beneficial
electrification
work
we
have.
H
We
just
received
word
that
we're
going
to
have
our
five
all
electric
trash
trucks
funded
through
the
vw
settlement
money.
So
that
was
good
news.
We
learned
yesterday
we're
moving
towards
all
electric
building
remodels,
like
the
police
micro
district,
where
we
did
an
analysis
that
looked
at
if
we
went
all-electric
versus
natural
gas
on
the
hvac
system.
What
are
the
payback
periods?
H
But,
as
I
mentioned,
we
wanted
to
have
this
broader
climate
action
approach
where
we
could
start
to
tie
these
individual
projects
and
individual
initiatives
together
and
so
working
with
the
mayor's
office.
We
came
up
with
an
idea
to
be
very
intentional
about
our
climate
work
and
a
way
to
do
that
is
to
have
staff
actually
assigned
and
responsible
for
making
this
work
happen
and
making
sure
that
the
work
is
being
integrated
across
those
different
focus
areas.
H
The
role
of
the
climate
action
division
is
to
develop
and
frame
climate
action
policies
for
you
all
mayor
and
council,
and
certainly
developing
and
implementing
the
a
climate
action
framework
and
I'll
talk
about
conceptually.
What
that
is
specifically,
this
group
will
be
leading
initiatives
associated
with
the
carbon
footprint
and
ghg
reduction
scenarios.
H
In
addition,
they'll
be
responsible
for
coordinating
across
all
city
departments
and
external
stakeholders
on
the
climate
action
implementation.
You
can
see
a
list
of
things
that
they're
going
to
be
responsible
for
making
sure
there's
coordination
across
the
organization
and
importantly
the
the
group
will
be
comprised
of
five
existing
ftes.
We
didn't
have
to
create
any
positions
to
form
the
the
initial
group.
H
We
do
have
some
requests
in
the
fy21
budget
for,
for
example,
an
energy
program
manager,
but,
as
the
group
has
formed
today,
it
is
of
formed
of
five
existing
folks
that
have
been
working
somewhat
on
climate
action
work,
but
we've
never
kind
of
described
it.
That
way
now
there'll
be
a
group
working
together
on
on
specific
climate
action
initiatives
and
so
they'll
be
located
in
within
the
public
works
department.
H
You
can
see
we
have
five
existing
divisions,
engineering
operations,
environmental,
the
utilities,
administration
and
then
the
facilities
program
management,
we're
going
to
add
the
the
sixth
division.
Climate
action
will
be
led
by
steve.
Hubbell
steve
led
our
he's
our
currently
our
deputy
environmental
division
manager
and
he
led
our
boise
energy
future
project
and
did
an
an
outstanding
job.
H
That
was
a
pretty
complicated
project
that
led
to
a
very
substantial
commitment
from
the
city
and
so
he's
been
involved
in
this
work
for
the
last
four
or
five
years,
and
so
it
made
sense
to
promote
steve
to
the
climate
action
manager
and
he'll
be
leading
the
group,
and,
as
I
mentioned,
the
primary
focus
is
going
to
be
developing
this
climate
action
framework
and
so
where
we
have
those
disparate
focus
areas
we're
going
to
try
to
have
an
umbrella
climate
action
approach
over
all
of
these
to
start
to
tie
these
actions
together
and
our
proposal
on
how
we
do
this-
and
this
is
still
forming-
is
that
for
each
focus
area
we
want
to
have
identified
mitigation
projects,
adaptation
projects
and
resilience,
resilience
projects
and
just
a
quick
explanation,
mitigation
being
where
we
know
we
have
to
stop
certain
behaviors
right,
so
greenhouse
gas
production
will
have
a
greenhouse
gas
reduction
goal,
that's
mitigating
the
potential
impacts
or
mitigating
the
potential
contributions
to
climate
change.
H
Adaptation
will
be
where
we're
trying
to
make
sure
that
we
can
adjust
to
the
changes
we
know
are
coming.
So
in
the
case
of
water
renewal
services,
recycling
used
water
is
an
adaptation.
We
know
that
drought
conditions
are
going
to
increase.
How
do
we
adapt
to
that
and
then?
Finally,
resiliency
is
the
ability
to
rebound
from
a
more
extreme
weather
scenario.
So
we
know
that
climate
change
is
going
to
create
more
extreme,
say:
storm
systems,
more
extreme
flooding
events.
H
So,
as
we
move
forward
with
the
framework,
the
key
outcomes
will
be
to
continue
this
work
that
we're
currently
doing,
but
in
that
larger
overarching
framework
and
starting
to
connect
these
different
focus
areas.
Equity
will
be
the
foundation
of
the
work.
That's
a
little
bit
new
for
us
and
we're
working
with
dignitas
the
agency.
H
We
can't
do
this
as
a
quote-unquote
city
government,
so
a
huge
part
of
our
work
will
be
engaging
the
community
on
climate
action
and,
in
the
end
where
we're
headed
is
just
like
in
the
energy
future
program.
We
didn't
commit
to
a
clean
energy
goal
just
to
commit
to
a
clean
energy
goal.
It's
about
reducing
carbon
footprint.
So,
in
the
end,
we're
going
to
be
coming
to
mayor
council
with
our
proposal
on
identifying
a
specific
greenhouse
gas
reduction
goal
and
then
actions
for
the
community
and
city
operations.
H
So
this
new
division
will
be
in
charge
of
all
of
this
work,
there's
going
to
be
a
lot
on
their
plate,
but
they
are
really
excited
about
it.
When
we
came
up
with
the
idea
and
and
the
folks
who
are
including
the
vision,
they're
excited
about
the
prospects
of
what's
coming
and
it's
a
challenge
but
they're
up
for
it
and
excited
about
the
work.
F
Perfect
well
we're
on
questions
anyway.
So
steve,
would
you
mind
going
back
a
slide?
F
So
if
you
look
at
the
various
categories
across
the
top,
these
are
all
very
important
things,
but
it
occurs
to
me
and
I'm
trying
to
remember.
I
don't
have
my
old
charts
with
me
right
now,
but
built
environment
is
a
tremendously
big
part
of
how
we
use
energy
today.
So
transportation
is
about
40
percent.
F
Our
built
environment
is
about
40
and
about
80
of
that
is.
If
my
memory
is
correct,
is
existing
built
environment
and
needing
to
retrofit,
or
at
least
mitigate
the
impacts
of
it
that
that
includes
buildings.
It
includes
existing
other
infrastructure
and
I
wonder
how
we're
going
to
address
those
in
this
action
framework.
H
So
when
we
set
the
path
for
100,
clean
electricity,
a
big
part
of
that
work
was
going
to
be
the
15
percent
there,
it's
kind
of
hard
to
see
a
little
bit,
but
on
electricity
efficiency
and
so
moving
forward.
The
the
our
ability
to
impact
the
existing
built
environment
is
going
to
be
critical
to
us,
making
this
goal,
and
so
one
of
the
things
that
we
worked
on
in
year.
One
of
the
implementation
of
boise's
energy
future,
for
example,
was
at
the
puc.
H
We
work
to
try
to
change
how
idaho
power
calculates
energy
efficiency,
the
benefits
of
energy
efficiency
programs,
and
we
were
able
to
change
that
so
such
that
now
we
believe
there'll
be
more
energy
efficiency
concepts,
that'll
be
viable
for
funding
from
idaho
power,
and
so
that's
an
example
of
how
to
your
point.
The
existing
infrastructure
is
going
to
be
such
a
huge
part
of
this
that
we'll
really
focus
on
electricity
efficiency.
First
that'll
reduce
the
backside,
capital
cost
renewables,
but
will
also
help
us
address
the
existing
infrastructure.
H
Another
example
would
be
where
we're
trying
to
get
the
mayor.
One
of
mayor's
priorities
was
efficiency
upgrades
for
vulnerable
communities,
another
example
of
existing
infrastructure
existing
homes.
Where
folks
need
help,
can
we
go
out
and
make
sure
that
they're
aware
of
energy
efficiency
programs
to
take
advantage
of,
and
then
on
the
transportation
side?
H
That's
a
really
good
point.
An
emphasis
on
electrification
is
one
of
our
first
steps,
but
frankly
it's
a
really
vexing
issue
for
for
most
cities.
To
your
point
about
40
percent
of
our
carbon
emissions
are
associated
with
just
transportation
network,
whether
it's
single
occupancy
vehicles
or
or
buses
or
transit.
It's
a
really
hard
question.
H
F
What
I'm
wondering
about
is
given
the
size
of
those
two
sectors
and
what
we
need
to
address
to
actually
get
to
zero,
we're
showing
in
that
prior
slide,
all
of
all
of
these
across
the
top,
as
if
they're
equal
and
I'm
wondering
if,
as
we
build
this,
if
we
want
to
at
least
consider
looking
at
the
ones
that
have
an
outsize
effect
and-
and
I
I
guess
I
I
think
built
environment
is
almost
in
all
of
these,
but
I'm
I'm
wondering
if
we
don't
pull
it
out
separately.
F
F
How
do
we
look
at
prioritizing?
How
do
we
make
sure
that
we're
addressing
those
particular
items
that
have
the
outside's
effect
on
our
on
our
success.
H
Madam
mayor
council,
president,
not
I
don't
take
it
as
criticism
at
all
part
of
the
focus
on
the
climate
action
framework
and
the
scope
of
work
that
we're
developing
is
to
do
exactly.
That
is
to
develop
all
of
the
different
solutions
that
we
think
are
on
the
table
and
then
start
to
do
an
roi
return
on
investment
bang
for
the
buck,
whether
it's
carbon
reduction
or
it's
a
financial
analysis.
H
We
haven't
landed
on
it
yet,
but
our
intent
would
be
to
come
out
of
that
that
project
with
a
list
of
say
the
top
50
things
that
we
think
ought
to
ought
to
get
moving.
Frankly,
many
of
those
are
already
moving
because
we
have
a
sense
for
the
roi,
but
we
want
to
have
a
much
clearer
kind
of
definition
on
which
where's
the
bank
for
the
buck
on
our
next
climate
action
steps
so
appreciate
the
feedback.
F
I
Thank
you,
madam
mayor.
Just
to
piggyback
on
council
president
clegg's
discussion
point
what
about
new
construction
and
how
this
figures
into
that
and
the
the
steps
that
builders
would
take
in
ensuring
that
we
have
the
best
use
of
energy
and
and
mitigate
the
waste
of
energy
and
new
construction.
H
Madam
mayor
councilmember,
I
know
down
on
pds
jason
blais
has
been
working
hard
on
making
sure
that
that
the
the
code
is
written,
such
as
promoting
the
hopefully
the
most
current
energy
efficiency
practices
it
can
be.
It
can
be
a
challenge
with
the
legislature
frankly,
but
we're
trying
to
work
hard
on
that
making
sure
that
new
when
new
construction
comes
online,
it's
as
efficient
as
possible,
and
I
think,
in
addition
to
just
efficiency,
it's
there's.
H
Obviously
the
energy
efficiency
side,
but
it's
also
density
is
is
a
is
a
good
thing
for
for
climate
work
right,
the
denser
you
can
have
a
downtown
or
the
denser.
You
can
have
a
community,
the
better
that
is
for
for
carbon
emissions,
and
so
that's
another
point
of
emphasis.
Just
in
how
we're
how
council
is
allowing
development
to
happen.
Is
it's
also
an
important
part
of
climate
mitigation.
D
Madam
mayor
go
ahead
steve
one
of
the
things
we
talked
about
when
we
were
adopting
boise's
energy
future
was
the
desire
to
also
adopt
a
methane
goal
of
some
kind.
Does
that
fit
into
this
last
bullet
point
or
where
does
that
fit
into
the
scope
of
this
plan?.
H
Madam
mayor
council,
pro
tem
great
point
it
it
would
fit
into
that
last
bullet
point,
but
it's
in
parallel
to.
I
don't
know
that
I
was
very
clear
about
this
and
parallel
to
developing
the
framework,
we're
going
to
be
working
on
that
thermal
energy
plan.
Great
so
we'll
be
coming
back
to
you
in
fy
21.
That
was
direction
from
council
back
in
2019,
yes,
2019
to
develop
a
thermal
action
plan
sooner
and
set
goals
sooner
so
we're
going
to
do
that
in
21..
So
we'll
be
back
in
front
of
you
with
those
wonderful.
H
H
J
Madam
mayor
council
members
good
afternoon,
zach
pietmeyer
transportation
planner
within
comprehensive
planning.
I'm
joined
today
by
tom
laws
also
with
comprehensive
planning,
we're
here
and
excited
to
talk
to
you
about
the
canal
pathways
or
pathways
master
plan
I'll
start
off
giving
you
a
brief
overview
of
what
the
project
is
and
some
of
the
recent
efforts
we've
gone
through
to
date.
I'll
turn
it
over
to
tom
he'll.
Give
you
some
more
details
about
the
nuts
and
bolts
of
the
actual
project.
J
So
what
is
it
we're
hoping
to
create
with
a
master
plan?
The
name
itself
could
be
subjective
and
interpreted
differently,
but
what
we've
identified
through
preliminary
discussions
is,
we
hope
to
create
a
citywide
plan
informed
by
stakeholders
and
technical
analyses
which
prioritizes
and
guides
the
implementation
of
an
off-street
pathway
system.
J
Why
is
that
needed?
Well,
we've
all
come
to
learn
that
public
streets
and
public
rights
of
way
managed
by
our
partners
at
achd
and
itds.
Those
are
those
are
critical
to
our
overall
mobility,
but
we
believe
there's
an
untapped
potential
for
improved
mobility
through
the
off-street
connective
tissue
in
our
cities,
such
as
railroads
canals
and
underdeveloped
or
undeveloped
properties.
J
What
it
really
functions,
as
is
it,
helps
us
understand
what
level
of
effort
and
cost
will
be
required
for
the
pathway
system
to
be
implemented
will
guide
that
expenditure
of
future
capital
improvements,
but
it
really,
most
importantly,
will
be
a
communication
tool
both
to
the
companies
that
operate
those
facilities,
irrigation
facilities
or
potentially
railroad
facilities.
The
underlying
property
owners,
transportation
agency
partners
that
we'll
have
to
work
with
developers,
obviously
and
then
a
communication
tool
about
priorities
to
the
public.
J
We've
also
been
coordinating
with
other
departments
internally,
specifically
the
mayor's
office
parks
and
rec
and
public
works,
and
then,
as
council
president
clay
and
council
member
halliburton
are
aware
of
we've
been
starting
initial
discussions
with
some
outside
advocacy
groups
that
will
ultimately
become
very
important
partners
as
we
go
forward.
One
example
is
the
canals
connect
communities
coalition.
J
But
beyond
this
legwork
staff,
all
throughout
the
city
has
been
engaged
in
recent
relevant
project
work
that
has
really
kind
of
laid
the
groundwork
for
this.
This
master
planning
effort.
One
of
those
important
projects,
is
the
goddard
linear
parkway
shown
here.
J
The
goddard
linear
park
is
located
within
settlers
irrigation,
district,
owned
property
near
capitol
high
school,
just
off
goddard
and
immediately
adjacent
to
the
settlers.
Irrigation
canal
staff
thus
far
has
coordinated
with
the
neighborhood
via
energize,
to
determine
priorities
for
this
currently
inactive
space.
We've
developed
concept
plans
that
include
pathways
among
other
amenities
and
we've
drafted
and
submitted
a
the
plan
and
potential
agreement
to
settlers
irrigation
district
for
consideration.
J
Should
this
project
go
forward,
I
will
help
improve
connectivity,
obviously
to
capital
high
school,
which
is
great,
but
it
has
the
potential
to
really
activate
some
land
in
the
west
bench
neighborhood
that
was
otherwise
unused
and
vacant,
sometimes
resulting
in
a
dumping
ground
for
trash.
J
Another
project
that
recently
was
completed
by
achd,
which
the
city
partnered
in
was
the
mcmillan
west
view
to
maple
grove
project.
Achd
constructed
a
multi-use
pathway
shown
here
along
the
north
side
of
mcmillan,
which
is
along
the
southern
edge
of
the
hyatt
wetlands,
hidden
lakes
reserve
and
other
city-owned
property.
The
pathway,
as
I
said
before,
runs
adjacent
to
in
parallel
to
city
property,
where
the
settlers
irrigation
canal
is
also
located
same
canal
as
the
previous
project
and
again
once
this
project.
J
Another
project
that
the
city's
actively
engaged
in
is
the
kasha
garden
connection
through
the
neighborhood
investment
program.
The
city
is
currently
working
to
implement
a
pathway
through
unopened,
achd
right
of
way
adjacent
to
the
electric
light
switch
lateral,
which
is
a
nampa
meridian
irrigation
district
facility
connecting
albion
and
garden
street
to
the
kasha
park.
J
And
lastly,
before
I
turn
it
over
to
tom
one
effort
that
we've
been
engaged
in
with
other
municipalities
throughout
both
ada
and
canyon
counties
is
the
compass
regional
rail
with
trail
effort.
Compass
has
led
this,
and
a
preliminary
plan
has
been
developed
along
the
existing
rail
corridor
to
establish
multi-use
pathway
in
the
corridor.
J
J
K
Project,
thank
you
zach,
madam
mayor
and
council.
Next
up,
I'm
going
to
kind
of
go
through
the
vision
that
we
have
for
the
plan
itself
and
we've
really
divided
this
up
into
five
different
phases
and
I'll
go
through
those
next.
But
I
will
note
that
this
is
really
subject
to
change,
so
we're
planning
for
the
the
rfp,
as
zach
mentioned,
to
go
out
shortly
and
with
that
we'll
really
be
relying
on
the
the
consultant
to
provide.
K
We
envision
teaming
up
with
a
consultant
to
look
at
the
background,
research
listening
and
synthesis
phases,
and
these
three
we,
we
really
relied
on
the
ridge
to
rivers
around
the
next
turn
10-year
plan
as
a
as
a
template,
and
we
felt
that
that
was
a
really
great
recent
plan
that
had
good
public
involvement
and
really
clear
implementation
steps,
and
so
that
was
kind
of
the
the
guiding
scope
to
these
three
phases
and
then,
finally,
with
the
last
phase,
administrative,
that
would
be
the
the
adoption
into
blueprint
boise.
K
Experts
such
as
the
canals
connect
communities
coalition,
really
the
the
goal
of
this
phase,
is
to
get
the
consultant
on
board
as
soon
as
possible
and
then
develop
those
team
rosters,
and
that
timeline
is
going
to
be
taking
place
between
now
and
november,
with
really
the
bulk
of
that
being
the
rfp
process
going
out
allowing
consultants
to
apply,
and
then
that
review
period
to
to
choose
the
the
consultant.
We
would
like
for
phase
two
that
we're
calling
background
research.
K
This
is
really
to
dive
in
and
review
previous
planning
efforts,
and
I
will
note
that
the
city
of
boise
has
a
similar
pathways
plan,
called
the
boise
bikeways
plan
that
was
completed
in
1975,
and
it's
this
black
and
white
document
up
here.
In
addition,
we
also
have
a
1995
micropaths
document
that
we'll
be
relying
on.
I
know
a
lot
of
the
a
lot
of
the
pathways
that
we'll
be
looking
at
we're,
not
recreating
the
wheel.
These
are
things
that
we've
heard
from
our
residents
for
decades.
K
D
K
K
K
So,
in
addition
to
our
existing
plans,
we'll
also
be
relying
on
you
know,
research
that
other
jurisdictions
and
other
peer
cities
have
completed.
So
this
can
include,
for
example,
the
meridian
pathways
master
plan
and
then
also
achd
neighborhood
planning
documents
and
the
roadways
to
bikeways
plan.
The
goal
with
with
this
phase
is
really
three
main
deliverables.
The
first
being
you
know,
reveal
those
previous
plans,
as
I
mentioned,
identify
those
best
practices
both
within
the
city
within
the
treasure
valley
in
idaho,
but
then
also
nationwide.
K
K
What
we're
calling
a
policy
analysis
so
look
into
both
our
zoning
ordinance
and
then
blueprint
boise
to
identify
what
language
do
we
have
in
there
that
really
helps
support
pathway
systems,
pathway
building
and
that
network,
and
I
think
I'm
really
excited
about
this
one,
because
the
recommendations
that
come
out
of
this
in
regards
to
the
zoning
ordinance
will
be
able
to
tie
directly
into
the
zoning
ordinance
rewrite
in
this
phase.
We're
really
looking
at
jumping
off
in
november
and
likely
ending
somewhere
in
january
february.
K
We
also
plan
on
having
a
open
house
and
online
survey
here,
which
is
really
aimed
at
getting
the
public
priorities
and
the
public
vision
for
what
is
a
true
city-wide
pathway
network.
What
could
that
look
like
what
are
their
priorities
and
where
the
two
deliverables
coming
out
of
this?
Being
that
first
open
house
and
survey?
What
those
results
look
like,
but
then
also
a
summary
of
the
public
desires,
and
we
anticipate
this
largely
happening
next
spring.
K
We
heard
what
are
those
desires,
what's
the
vision
and
and
goals
of
this
pathway
network
and
one
evaluating
and
creating
a
prioritization
criteria,
so
you
know
we're
going
to
have
a
list
of
100
potential
segments
and
we
need
an
easy
way
to
identify
which
one
of
those
should
be
prioritized
first,
so
we
have
clear
implementation
steps
moving
forward
and-
and
this
is
just
an
example-
figure
of
what
that
could
look
like
where
we
look
at
things
like
you
know,
what
is
the
underlying
property
ownership?
K
Is
it
public
right-of-way
and
achd,
or
the
irrigation
district
owned,
or
is
it
50
different
backyards
of
individual
property
owners
in
regards
to
connectivity?
Is
it
is
it
connecting
directly
to
the
regional
network?
Let's
say
the
greenbelt,
or
is
it
activity,
centers
parks,
schools,
grocery
stores
and
so
forth,
and
then
also
considerations
with
both
irrigation
district
requirements?
Do
we
have
to
separate
the
pathway
from
the
irrigation
district
maintenance
road?
K
Looking
at
that
cost
estimate,
as
I
mentioned,
and
then
also
diving
in
a
little
bit
into
legal
framework.
So
what
are
the
state
statutes,
the
city
statutes
in
regards
to
things
like
recreational
immunity
or
trespassing
and
so
forth,
and
and
really
coming
out
of
this
phase?
We
see
the
the
draft
plan
itself.
K
Another
public
outreach
opportunity
diving
into
an
open
house
diving
into
that
draft
plan.
You
know
what
taking
what
we
heard
in
phase
three
and
bringing
it
back
to
the
public
and
saying:
did
we
get
this
right?
Is
this
really?
You
know
is
this
what
your
intentions
were
and
then,
after
that
tying
this
all
up
into
the
final
plan
and
in
this
phase
we
anticipate
starting
in
spring
and
then
wrapping
up
in
the
summer.
K
And
then,
finally,
with
the
administrative
side,
the
objectives
and
deliverables
here
are
really
the
same,
and
that's
once
we
have
that
final
planned
document.
Let's
get
it
adopted
into
blueprint,
boise
and
make
it
official
with
the
city
and,
and
that
largely
is
going
to
be
through
the
end
of
the
fiscal
year
and
slightly
into
the
fall
winter
of
2021
going
through
the
planning
and
zoning
and
the
city
council
process.
L
A
Madam
mayor,
just
second
first
we'll
have
councilman
hallie
burton
and
then
council
member
sanchez.
C
First
of
all,
I
just
wanted
to
say
thanks
for
for
all
the
work
with
this
council
president
craig
and
I
have
had
the
opportunity
to
work
with
you
a
little
bit
more
and
see
how
much
you've
been
pouring
in.
So
it's
really
appreciative
and
I'm
glad
that
you're
excited
about
the
city
of
boise
policy
analysis
side
of
things.
C
What
are
the
different
types
of
things
that
we
can
be
protecting
in
the
form
of
easements
and
stuff,
and
so
that's
been
really
helpful
for
me
that
learning
process
and
if
there's
other
things
like
that
in
the
meantime
before
we
get
to
that
policy
analysis,
please
let
me
know
so
that
we
can
begin.
You
know
chipping
away
on
those
things,
but
thank
you.
I
I
Delay,
okay,
so
one
of
the
tools
of
facebook
that
I
sometimes
appreciate
is
the
the
memory
function
that
lets.
You
know
what
you
were
doing
on
a
particular
day
a
year
ago,
five
years
ago,
that
sort
of
thing,
and
so
yesterday,
apparently
six
years
ago
yesterday,
I
made
a
post
about
my
harrowing
experience,
riding
my
idaho
youth
ranch,
cruiser
and-
and
it
was
just
really
funny
and
just
a
funny
reminder
of
like.
I
Oh
that's
right,
I
used
to
be
brave
and
I
used
to
ride
my
bike,
but
I
think
this
particular
experience
where
I
had
angry
drivers
yelling
at
me.
Another
pedestrian
and
I
were
waiting
to
cross
the
road
and
the
cars
wouldn't
stop,
and
I
was
so
upset
by
this,
because
I
was
trying
to
do
the
right
thing
and
I
made
a
post
about
it.
I
I
even
mentioned
bbp
and
now
council,
member
halliburton,
and
so
I'm
wondering
if,
if
any
of
those
plans,
when
they
reached
out
to
the
community
or
our
plans
now
to
reach
out
to
the
community
for
input,
will
it
include
people
like
me,
people
who
currently
do
not
use
their
bicycles
for
transportation
or
even
recreation,
just
to
get
some
input
from
folks
about
what
it
would
take.
What
what
would
it
need
to
look
like
for
them
to
embrace
this
as
a
alternative
form
of
transportation.
K
K
K
We
have
about
14
different
public
engagement
or
city
council
engagement
opportunities
throughout
this
process
and
making
sure
that
we
get
those
you
know
concerned
citizens
that
you
know
aren't
100
comfortable
riding
a
bike,
but
then,
on
the
the
other
extreme
making
sure
we
hear
those
voices
of
people
that
might
not
have
a
car
and
are
forced
to
be
biking.
You
know
every
day,
regardless
of
the
weather
is
going
to
be
really
key.
With
this
planning
process.
I
Thank
you
tom
and,
like
I
said,
I
really
appreciate
that
reminder
function
because,
as
I
read
my
post,
the
re,
the
reason
I
was
riding
that
bike
was
my
17
year.
Old
car
was
not
working,
and
so
I
I
had
to
be
brave
and
and
use
my
bike,
which
is
not
something
that
I
that
I
did
at
that
time
or
even
now.
I
So
I
I
really
appreciate
the
fact
that
there
will
be
some
outreach
to
folks
like
myself,
who
are
not
quite
comfortable
using
that
alternative
form
of
of
transportation.
I'm
also
wondering
at
any
of
these
at
the
ends
of
any
of
these
new
pathways.
Are
there
any
large
employers
where
folks
might
be
commuting.
K
To
madam
mayor
councilmember
sanchez,
absolutely
I
think
you
know
really
one
of
the
unique
things
about
a
lot
of
these
canals.
The
majority
really
are
that
they
come
directly
from
and
off
of
the
green
belt.
So
I
I
almost
view
it,
as
you
know,
circulatory
system,
where
we're
going
to
have
these
offshoots
that
are
one
going
to
be
able
to
get
people
to
the
green
belt
and
then
get
them.
K
You
know,
let's
say
directly
to
downtown,
but
you
know
there's
already
a
few
that
we've
identified
that
will
link
up
directly
to
activity,
centers
and
main
areas
of
employment
as
well.
The
the
main
one
that's
coming
to
mind
now
is
the
farmer's
lateral
which
travels
right
below
the
second
bench,
behind
bishop
kelly,
borah,
high
school
and
then
pops
out
at
the
hillcrest
shopping
center,
which
you
have
the
albertsons
there
you
have.
You
know
one
of
our
library
branches.
You
have
a
couple
gyms,
a
bakery
and
so
forth.
K
So
I
think
you
know
that
could
be
one:
the
employment
opportunity
that
employment
connection,
but
then
also
you
know
tying
into
those
critical
services
that
we
need
as
neighborhoods.
A
Just
sure,
just
second,
I
just
wanted
to
follow
up
on
that
too
I
mean
the
thinking
about.
Mobility
in
different
ways
is
really
important,
and
so
I
see
these
as
pathways
for
bikes,
but
I'm
very
just,
as
importantly
as
open
space
for
people
just
as
50
years
ago,
when
we
started
to
map
out
the
green
belt
plan,
and
we
looked
at
where
it
could
go,
how
it
could
go,
what
the
ownership
was
and
and
started
imagining
what
it
would
look
like,
and
it's
taken
us.
A
You
know
those
50
years
to
fulfill
the
vision,
and
this
should
do
the
same
as
we
reimagine.
What
open
spaces
look
like
for
our
residents
looking
at
canals
if
we
can
make
some
of
this
work,
creates
incredible
opportunity
to
provide
open
spaces
for
people
to
be
to
be
in
to
be
out
and
enjoying
to
be
walking
to
getting
to
different
places,
but
to
be
able
to
have
those
spaces
throughout
the
city
is
incredibly
valuable
and
a
network
of
canals
could
provide
that
if
we
can
find
willing
partnership.
F
Madam
mayor
sure,
thank
you
well
stated.
I
was
going
to
bring
up
the
open
space
issue
as
well.
It's
interesting
to
hear
so
much
talk
about
policy
and
exciting
to
hear
other
people
who
are
excited
about
policy.
Thank
you,
tom,
for
being
so
excited
about
that
and
and
councilmember
holly
burton
as
well.
F
One
of
the
things
that
I
wonder
as
we
do.
This
is
tying
back
to
the
work.
K
Madam
mayor
council,
president
absolutely-
and
I
I
think
I
I
didn't
emphasize
it
enough
when
I
mentioned
our
really
relying
on
on
achd-
to
come
to
the
table
and
help
us.
F
Great,
thank
you
one
other
question.
As
we
talk
about
partners,
I
know
you
mentioned
compass
in
relation
to
the
rail
with
trail
plan
that
they're
producing
you
know
jointly,
especially
with
meridian
city
of
boise.
F
I
wonder
what
role
you
envision
them
playing
in
terms
of
helping
whatever
consultant
or
city
staff,
develop
some
of
the
research
around
both
demand
and
the
mapping
that
we'll
need
to
do
are
they?
Are
we
going
to
ask
them
to
play
a
role
as
part
of
our
membership.
K
Madam
mayor
council,
president,
you
know,
I
think,
everything's
on
the
table
at
this
point.
Your
your
comment
on
you
know:
data
collection.
It
reminds
me
that
you
know
compass
does
have
quite
a
few
automatic
automatic
bike
and
encounters.
So
you
know
it
might
be
really
interesting.
If
we,
you
know,
identify
a
few
key
segments
early
on.
K
Do
we
go
ahead
and
get
counters
out
there
now
and
try
to
get
that
before
and
after
or
even
during,
but
but
to
your
point,
I
think
we
we
really
can
rely
on
them
for
by
rely
on
them,
but
then
also
our
other
cities
throughout
the
treasure
valley
on
you
know:
identification
of
those
best
practices
throughout
the
valley,
but
then
also
you
know
identifying
where,
where
are
examples
that
have
really
worked
well,
both
with
working
with
the
irrigation
districts,
but
then
also,
you
know,
potentially,
let's
say
new
development.
You
know
we
have.
A
E
Just
a
few
comments,
first
of
all,
thank
you
to
both
of
you.
This
is
outstanding
work
and
it's
very
exciting,
and
I
appreciate
the
attention
that's
been
brought
to
it
by
you
know
several
of
the
council
members,
especially
council
member
hallie,
burton's
passion
for
opening
up
canal
ways.
I
know
that's
important
to
you
and
that
would
be
very
exciting
to
see
across
the
city.
I'm
I
just
wanted
to.
E
Second
what
the
the
mayor
noted
it's
to
me
that
it's
that
open
space
as
well,
I
may
not
excuse
me,
ride
my
bike
as
often
because
I
like
to
walk,
because
I
have
my
dogs
with
me
and
so
walking
along
a
canal
pathway
is
is
just
another
way
to
enjoy
that
open
space
with
my
my
dogs
and
and
daughter,
and
that
sort
of
thing
so
it's
it.
It
certainly
opens
it
up
for
transportation,
but
I
just
think
it
adds
potentially
an
enormous
new
amenity
to
our
city.
In
that
regards
thanks.
A
A
L
Good
afternoon
mayor
members
of
the
council,
thank
you
for
having
me
here
today.
I'm
excited
to
be
able
to
present
on
a
couple
of
items
that
we
have
happening
in
economic
development
in
the
mayor's
office.
Right
now,
today,
I'm
going
to
highlight
our
work
on
the
economic
recovery
task
force
and
as
well
as
the
economic
development
strategic
plan,
so
I'll
kick
it
off
with
the
work
we've
been
doing
on
the
economic
recovery
task
force.
L
This
is
an
effort
that
has
been
underway
since
about
mid-may
of
this
year
in
response
to
the
the
covenant
19
pandemic,
of
course,
and
as
a
way
to
convene
a
group
of
community
leaders
to
address
some
of
the
the
specific
challenges
that
we've
experienced
as
a
community
as
part
of
this
pandemic,
but
also
to
address
the
the
longer
term
implications
of
the
profound
effect
that
this
has
had
on
our
community
and
our
economy.
L
So
looking
at
this
from
both
a
response
standpoint,
but
also
an
opportunity
to
build
something
out
of
this
out
of
this
sort
of
game-changing
event
that
we've
had
with
the
pandemic
and
as
part
of
that
to
develop
a
set
of
priorities
in
the
short
mid
and
long
term,
that
would
enhance
economic
resilience
and
agility
for
the
for
the
city
in
the
in
the
years
to
come.
L
It
was
also
an
opportunity
to
strengthen
the
relationships
that
we
have
with
our
partners,
specifically
those
on
the
task
force,
but
also
the
broader
partners
that
are
part
of
our
community
here
and
we'll
be
ultimately
part
of
the
recovery
effort
and
as
well
as
just
strengthening
the
the
relationships
of
of
the
city
with
the
public.
Those
who
are
are
directly
going
to
see
the
results
of
the
efforts
that
we
have
toward
economic
recovery
as
part
of
this
task
force
effort,
and
so
in
summary,
it's
basically
it's
it
was.
L
L
So
a
little
bit
about
the
task
force
itself
and
and
and
who,
who
it
was
composed
by
so
we
had,
as
mentioned
community
leaders
that
were
broadly
representative
of
the
economic
community
here
in
boise
12
members
in
total,
along
with
the
mayor
and
supported
by
city
staff
and
a
third
party
facilitator,
the
representation
came
from
all
sectors
of
the
economy,
public,
private
and
non-profit
you'll
notice
that
you
know
we
kept
the
group
small.
L
We
had
a
short
focused
effort
here
and
the
goal
was
to
develop
a
high
level
vision
in
that
short
period
of
time.
That
would
be
the
first
step
in
a
much
broader
effort
that
being
the
economic
development
strategic
plan
that
I'll
talk
about
here
in
a
few
minutes.
But
as
you
can
see,
this
is
sort
of
the
broad
representation
that
I'm
talking
about
major
employers,
energy
and
climate
built
environment,
and
I
won't
read
through
the
whole
list.
L
But
the
effort
here,
of
course,
was
to
create
something
that
was
again
probably
representative
of
the
community
in
terms
of
process.
This
was
an
effort
that
lasted
approximately
10
weeks
of
active
engagement.
L
I'll
emphasize
too,
that
this
task
force
will
be
engaged
with
the
city
for
a
much
longer
period
of
time
and
the
task
force
members
have
committed
to
that.
But
the
active
engagement
piece
was
was
about
10
weeks
and
that
was
again
beginning
about
mid-may
and
lasting.
Through
mid-august,
we
had
a
third
party
from
neutral
ground,
the
boise
boise
valley,
economic
partnership,
one
of
our
trusted
partners
with
whom
we
work
quite
frequently
and
that
the
facilitator
was
charity.
L
These
are
guiding
principles
that
are
important
to
all
the
work
that
we
do
in
economic
development
at
the
city,
but
that
are
particularly
important
in
light
of
pandemic
and
the
unique
conditions
we're
facing
right
now
and
as
we
move
through
the
process.
With
these
principles
to
guide
us,
we
we
developed
strategic
priorities
and
then
eventually
action
areas
that
fell
into
three
broad
categories
of
public
health
populations
that
who
have
become
increasingly
vulnerable.
L
Finally,
we
just
wanted
to
make
sure
as
well-
and
we
heard
this
from
the
task
force-
that
all
the
priorities
that
we
had
were
aligned
with
the
community
priorities
that
were
identified
in
the
economic
opportunity
for
all
transition
report.
L
And
this
is
way
too
small
to
put
up
on
screen,
but
just
as
an
overview
of
how
we
organize
the
priorities
and
document
and
without
without
having
it
here
to
show
you.
Essentially,
we
organize
the
priorities
in
terms
of
action,
areas,
strategic
areas
and
then
short,
medium
long
term,
action
time
frames
as
far
as
next
steps.
The
public
release
of
the
task
force
recommendations
if
it
hasn't
happened
already,
is
happening
imminently.
So
it
will
happen
today
again
the
actions
that
have
been
identified.
L
The
document
will
be
carried
out
by
the
city
and
the
task
force
and
or
other
members
of
the
the
community
business
community,
non-profit
community
etc
in
boise,
as
identified
in
the
plan,
and
it
will
be
a
first
step
to
the
the
broader
set
of
actions
that
we'll
we'll
take
in
the
economic
development
strategic
plan,
effort
which
I'll
talk
about
here
in
a
minute.
So
I'm
happy
to
pause
now
and
take
any
questions
on
this
particular
effort
or
just
move
directly
onto
the
the
next
subject,
whichever
you
prefer.
F
You,
madam
mayor,
just
just
briefly,
I
guess,
as
you
do
go
forward
into
the
economic
strategic
plan
at
some
point,
it'd
be
good
to
have
a
discussion
about
how
we
carry
forward
the
task
force
recommendations.
F
I
suspect,
given
the
depth
of
this
recession
and
some
of
the
impacts
of
the
coveted
crisis
that
some
of
these
will
end
up
being
quite
long
term.
So
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
we
have
a
chance
at
some
point
to
go
through
them
and
identify
those.
I
don't
think
today's
that
day.
L
L
Okay,
without
any
further
questions
on
the
task
force,
we'll
move
on
to
the
economic
development
strategic
plan,
so
the
the
economic
development
strategic
plan
is
a.
Would
you
like
me
to
pause
here?
Oh
no,
you're,
good.
Okay,
all
right!
The
strategic
plan
is
an
effort
that
we
are
kicking
off
as
we
speak,
so
as
we
put
the
task
force,
recommendations
out
to
the
public
and
and
move
on
from
that
engagement
effort.
L
We're
literally
kicking
off
this
longer
term
effort,
probably
this
week,
and
the
intent
here
is
to
develop
a
plan
that
will
define
the
city's
long-term
priorities
around
economic
development,
its
goals
and
strategies
and
and
tactics
and
along
with
those,
the
metrics
that
will
help
us
measure
our
success
over
time
and
take
a
build
measure
and
learn
approach.
L
So
as
we
build,
we
measure
our
success,
learn
from
that
and
then
have
a
strategy
in
place
to
look
back
and
see
how
we've
done
over
time
to
improve
we've
identified
some
general
focus
areas
in
the
rfp,
so
just
for
context,
we've
developed
the
rfp
that
is
being
put
out
to
the
public
this
week
for
responses
from
interested
parties.
L
We
hope
to
receive
those
location
solicitations
within
the
time
frame
that
that
our
purchasing
department
is
identified,
which
I
believe
is
two
or
three
weeks
and
then
have
a
consultant
on
board
within
the
the
next
month
or
so
so
as
part
of
that
rfp
and
the
scope
that
we've
developed,
we
identified
some
general
focus
areas
that
could
change
as
part
of
the
the
consultant's
input,
but
generally
business
attraction
and
target
industry,
improvement,
recruitment,
I'm
sorry,
business
retention
and
expansion,
workforce
and
industry
partnerships,
entrepreneurship
and
small
business
support,
stakeholder
and
partner
alignment
and
then,
finally,
those
metrics
and
performance
measures
that
will
help
us
understand
our
progress
over
time.
L
So
as
part
of
that
project
scope,
the
key
action
areas
that
we
anticipate
to
occur
will
be
first,
a
broadly
representative
engagement
of
a
group
of
community
stakeholders.
Part
of
this
as
part
of
this
plan.
So,
as
mentioned,
the
the
task
force
was
the
first
step
in
that
this
is
the
the
next
step
and
next
several
steps
as
part
of
that
process,
and
we
anticipate
this
engagement
to
be
to
be
broader
in
terms
of
the
the
groups
that
we'll
engage
in
and
the
time
frame
of
that
effort.
I
L
Madam
mayor
councilmember
sanchez,
certainly
so,
we've
we've
identified
some
draft
areas
of
of
focus
in
our
rfp,
but
we'll
certainly
look
to
the
consultant
to
ensure
that
we
have
this
a
list.
That's
as
comprehensive
as
it
can
be.
I'd
anticipate
it
to
be,
for
example,
small
businesses,
arts
organizations,
nonprofits
community
chambers,
broadly
representative,
community
chambers,
yeah.
I
think
a
full
spectrum
I
mean
large
employers
will
have
a
finalized
list
when
we
review
the
the
scope
with
the
consultant
and
and
and
work
with
our
internal
staff.
I
That's
great:
can
we
ensure
that
of
those
small
business
owners
that
we
we
make
sure
that
folks,
who
perhaps
english
may
not
be
their
first
language,
that
they
are
included
in
this
representation
as
well.
L
Madam
mayor
councilmember
sanchez,
certainly
we
we,
we
certainly
anticipate
doing
that
and
I'd
be
happy
to
follow,
follow
up
with
you
on
those
efforts
and
I'm
sure
we're
reaching
all
the
groups
that
we
should
be.
L
So,
as
part
of
the
final
deliverable
of
this
plan,
we
anticipate
it
to
be
something:
that's
concise,
graphically,
rich
and
and
and
directive,
so
to
clearly
define
the
the
steps,
the
projects,
the
the
actions
that
we'll
take.
But
all
this
will
include
a
documentation
of
the
work
that
we've
done.
L
So
the
the
committee
outreach
the
the
data
and
analysis
and
the
work
that
went
into
creating
the
strategic
goals,
tactics,
outcomes
et
cetera
as
part
of
that,
so
it
will
have
as
far
as
a
public-facing
document,
something
I
would
anticipate
around
20
pages
and
then
an
appendix
to
back
that
up
with
all
of
the
work
that
went
into
completing
the
plan.
L
As
far
as
next
steps,
we
anticipate
this
rfp
the
request
for
proposals
to
go
out
this
week
from
our
purchasing
department,
anticipate
about
four
weeks
for
a
collection
of
the
responses
and
review
of
those.
L
F
Hi
thank
thank
you,
sean,
it's
great
to
get
an
update.
So
a
quick
question
about
the
potential
focus
areas
you
listed.
F
Not
surprisingly,
I'm
going
to
talk
about
infrastructure
and
it
does
seem
like
when
we
do
economic
development
plans.
We
focus
on
the
human
infrastructure
and
company
infrastructure
if
you
will,
but
we
don't
focus
on
the
built
infrastructure,
and
I
wonder
if
there's
a
role
to
review
what
infrastructure
we
do
have
in
place
that
will
serve
whatever
industries
or
other
businesses
that
we
identify.
We
need
and
make
sure
ensure
that
we
have
enough
capacity,
ensure
that
we're
marketing
it
in
the
right
way.
Those
kinds
of
things.
L
Yes,
thank
you.
We
anticipate
to
complete
a
a
baseline
economic
assessment
at
the
beginning
of
this
process,
as
well
as
a
strengths,
weaknesses,
opportunities
analysis
that
will
identify
some
of
those
areas
of
need
that
we'll
need
to
stress
during
this
plan.
Thank
you.
D
Made
a
mirror,
I
don't
have
a
question.
I
just
have
a
comment.
Thank
you
so
much
sean.
I
know
that
you've
been
working
really
hard
to
help
people
adapt
and
help
companies
adapt
throughout
all
of
this.
D
So
I
know
that
this
is
going
to
be
something
that
lets
you
get
out
of
the
weeds
a
little
bit
and
look
at
something
a
little
bit
longer
term.
I
don't
really
have
any
questions,
but
I'm
just
hopeful
that
this
gives
us
a
really
good
picture
of
where
we
need
to
go
economically
so
that
we
can
make
sure
that
people
have
great
jobs
and
that
they
are
able
to
live
in
our
community
with
those
jobs,
and
so
I
look
forward
to
going
through
the
process
with
you.
