C
Thank
madame,
thank
you,
madam
mayor.
I
move.
We
amend
the
agenda
to
include
the
reading
of
a
proclamation
for
the
navy
week
as
the
first
item
on
special
business.
This
item
is
information
only
and
does
not
require
council
action
and
was
mistakenly
left
off
the
agenda
when
it
was
published.
Second,.
A
Oh
great,
okay,
so
we're
you'll
have
to
listen
to
a
couple
things
in
our
council
meeting.
First,
all
right
so
of
just
for
those
of
you
that
are
watching
online
and
we
have
council
member
weddings
that
had
to
be

us
through
zoom.
Today
we
have
admiral
admiral
beer.
Beale.
Excuse
me,
I
was
about
to
say
admirable.
A
It's

deal
and
the
the
commander
and
some
of
the
crew
of
the
uss
boise

with
us
today
for
navy
week,
and
so
we'll
have
a
proclamation
and
some
words
said
under
special
business
just
shortly.
But
it's
wonderful
to
have
you
all

us
here
in
the
chambers,
thanks

I'm
joining
us
and
of

thanks

in
the
city

with
that
I'm
going
to
ask
that
we
move
as
quickly
as
possible
through
items
two
first,
which
is
a
request
for
approval
of
minutes.
B
A
Thank

we'll
request

And
now
we
have
the
consent
agenda.
All
items
with
an
asterisk
are
considered
to
be
routine
by
the
council
and
will
be
enacted
by
one
motion.
There's
no
separate
discussion
on
these
items
unless
a
council,
member
or
member
of
the
public
so
requests,
in
which
case
the
item
will
be
removed
from
the
general

of
business
and
considered
in
its
normal
sequence.

that

and
ord

be
dispensed
with,
and
the
record
reflect
that
they
have
been

for
the
third
time
in
full.
Second,.
B
A
Thank
you,
and
now
we
are
to
special
business
and
so
first
off
we
have
a
proclamation
reading
related
to
navy
week
and
I
said
at
the
beginning,
but
I
just
want
to
welcome
you
all
again.
It's
the
community
loves
having
the
members
of
the
navy
here
for
navy
week.
I
really
appreciate
that
you've
made
some
changes,
as
we
all
had
to
make
sure
that
the
community
remains
safe
and
all
of
you
stay
healthy
as
well
with
coveted
protocols,
and
so
some
of
the
things
we
thought
we'd
be
able
to
do
together.
A
We
weren't
able
to,
but
really
I'm
glad
that
you're
able
to
visit
us
at
city
hall
to
the
crew
here
from
uss
boise
and
please
let
those
know
back
on
the
boat
that
our
city,
of
course
we
have
a
great
booster
organization,
but
our
city
truly
values
and
loves
to
hear
about
the
uss,
boise
and,
of
course,
the
region,
the
uss
idaho.
And
it's
wonderful
to
have
you
all
here.
For
that.
A
I
also
want
to
say
too
that
you
know
we
have
a
lot
of
navy
veterans
in
our
own
ranks
as
a
city
and
so
that
relationship
that
we
have
between
the
armed
forces
and
that
create
great
hires
that
then
come
and
continue
their
service
to
their
country
by
serving
their
city
is
really
important
to
us.
And
so,
as
we
were
planning
for
this
too,
it
was
really
great
to
see,
as
we
talked
about
the
people
within
our
own
ranks,
that
came
out
of
the
navy.
A
How
many
incredible
leaders
we
have
in
this
building
and
throughout
our
facilities
and
that
at
one
point
in
time,
had
been
naval
officers
or
or
members
of
the
navy.
I'm
gonna
read
this
proclamation
and
then
would
invite
all
of
you
for
one
more
picture
with
council.
We
can
either
do
it
right
here
in
front
of
the
diocese
or
if
we
want
to
go
back
to
the
logo,
we
can
do
that,
but
I
believe
that
there
are
some
folks
that
wanted
to
do
that.
A
A
A
A
A
B
E
Wanted
to
say
just
thank
you
for
coming,
but
I
wanted
to
share
just
a
really
quick
story.
It
was
probably
like
a
month
and
a
half
ago,
my
girlfriend
and
I
were
having
a
conversation
about
skydiving
and
I
told
her
very
explicitly.
There
is
no
way
in
the
world
that
I
would
ever
go
skydiving
and
the
very
next
day
I
got
an
email
from
one
of
our
staff
members
saying
hey:
would
you
go
skydiving
with
one
of
the
navy?
E
C
Madam
mayor
I'd
just
like
to
quickly
say,
I
was
honored
to
be
able
to
attend
the
change
of
command
ceremony
for
the
uss
boise
a
few
years
ago,
and
it
was
really
a
moving
ceremony
for
me.
My
father
served
in
world
war
ii,
two
of
his
brothers
served
in
the
navy
in
the
pacific
theater
and
to
see
the
submarine
and
to
see
all
of
the
uniformed
officers
and
and
semen
and
see.
Women
was
just
really
moving
to
me.
So
thank
you
for
what
you
do.
C
Thank
you
for
the
support
you
bring
to
this
community
and
I
want
you
to
know
this
community
cares
a
lot
about
it.
Thank
you.
D
Madam
mayor
very
quickly
as
well,
thank
you
so
much.
It's
a
real
honor
to
have
you
here.
I
my
family,
like
council,
president
clegg
has
a
very
rich
history
in
the
military.
My
grandfather
on
my
dad's
side
served
in
world
war
ii
in
the
army
and
my
my
dad
served
two
tours
in
vietnam
in
the
army
and
my
very
close
uncle
was
in
the
navy,
served
in
naval
submarine.
D
My
nephew
is
now
in
space
force
and
I
was
proud
to
serve
in
the
u.s
air
force
down
at
dyess
air
force
base.
So
I
appreciate
your
service
and
thank
you
so
much
for
all.
You
do.
A
A
A
I
think
what's
important
right
now,
as
we
look
at
this
is,
and
we
address
the
pressing
needs.
Chief
nehemiah
will
probably
walk
through
some
of
the
objectives
that
we
have.
That
council
be
aware
of
the
data.
That's
coming
from
our
wastewater,
which
of
course
is
public.
The
hospitals
other
places
know
a
little
bit
about
staff
and
the
pressing
community
needs
so
that
we
can,
at
the
very
least,
be
prepared
to
make
decisions
as
they
need
to
happen
and
also
recognize
that
you
know,
as
covet
has
taught
us.
A
This
is
constantly
changing,
so
just
like
it
was
referenced.
There
were
some
events
this
week
with
navy
week
that
I
appreciate
that
the
naval
command
decided
that
best
not
to
do
and
or
to
do
differently
and
as
the
as
the
data
changes
as
we
hear
more
from
hospitals.
As
we
see
what
happens
as
schools
open,
there
could
well
be
just
different
service
delivery
and
that
we
see
is
needed
just
like
we
saw
last
time
around
when
schools
needed
to
have
our
help
with
meals
and
other
things.
F
Madam
mayor
members
of
council
great
to
be
here
this
afternoon
we're
having
a
little
bit
of
a
computer
glitch,
so
I'm
going
to
improvise
just
for
a
second
while
we
get
the
it
folks
to
take
a
look
at
this
and
get
the
presentation
out.
F
But
I
think,
as
the
mayor
alluded
to
what
I'm
going
to
cover
today
is
just
a
little
bit
of
the
data
that
we're
seeing
with
regards
to
covet
a
little
bit
of
the
delta
variant
cover
a
little
bit
of
the
other
variants
that
we
know
are
out
there
for
public
awareness
talk
about
where
people
can
go
to
find
the
right
information
as
they
make
decisions
moving
forward.
Some
updates
from
the
cdc
also
some
of
the
priorities
that
the
marriage
has
alluded
to.
F
We
have
six
priorities
that
our
city
team
is
focused
on
and
meeting
objectives
too,
and
those
objectives
are
clear
enough
and
concise
enough
that,
regardless
of
strain
and
the
ups
and
downs
of
strains,
those
objectives
will
stay.
Our
true
north-
and
I
I
heard
maureen
talk
a
little
bit
earlier
today
when
when
we
were
talking
about
housing
of
true
north.
F
So
too
are
the
admissions
into
our
health
care
system,
our
hospitals,
and
that
has
a
triple
down
a
trickle
down
effect,
not
a
triple
down
effect,
a
trickle
down
effect
to
even
our
ems
providers,
our
firefighters,
our
paramedics
in
our
ems
system-
and
I
would
like
to
say
it
never
happens.
But
quite
honestly,
what
I'm
about
to
tell
you
just
happened
in
the
last
seven
days.
F
F
My
daughter
has
now
graduated
from
college
and
has
her
first
job
at
st
alfonsus
here
in
boise,
she's
on
the
med
surg
floor,
and
so
now
there's
a
trickle-down
effect
where
some
of
those
patients
are
trickling
down
into
other
areas
of
the
hospital
like
med
surg.
That
then
has
a
trickle
down
effect
and
some
of
the
less
critical
med
surg
patients
have
to
go
somewhere
and
oftentimes
those
patients
go
into
other
areas
of
the
hospital
where
you
have
staff
on
site
24
hours
a
day.
One
of
those
places
is
the
emergency
room.
F
So
when
they,
when
you
trickle
down
into
the
emergency
room,
you
now
have
less
capacity
between
the
nurses
and
doctors
in
the
emergency
room
to
accept
all
the
patients
that
would
normally
come
into
an
emergency
room,
and
that's
where
our
ems
system
comes
into
play.
When
our
paramedics
on
the
ambulance
and
our
firefighters,
going
in
on
that
ambulance
are
taking
place
in
the
emergency
room.
There
are
times
where
the
emergency
rooms
are
so
full.
They
come
to
what's
called
bypass.
F
It
means
that
they
can
only
handle
the
most
critical
of
patients
and
anybody
else
less
critical.
We
have
to
find
somewhere
else
for
them
to
go,
and
that
means
another
hospital
that
can
mean
another
hospital
here
in
ada
county,
but
if
they're
all
full,
that
could
mean
another
hospital
in
an
adjoining
county,
we're
now
taking
patients
to
another
county,
simply
to
find
an
emergency
room
that
is
able
to
accept
them.
F
That
is
the
trickle-down
effect
that
happens
when
we
talk
about,
what's
usually
in
the
news
and
that's
icucu,
bet,
availability
and
capacity,
we're
talking
about
the
trickle-down
effect
of
healthcare
that
ultimately
ends
up
affecting
us.
So
now
you
talk
about
our
paramedics
and
our
ems
system,
which
I'm
very
familiar
with.
F
If
we're
sending
patients
to
another
county,
that's
going
to
delay
enough
ambulances
in
our
own
county
to
provide
the
service
or
if
we
have
to
wait
in
an
emergency
room,
that's
delaying
those
ambulances
getting
back
in
service
to
then
go
out
and
help
defect,
those
calls.
So
you
can
see
the
trickle-down
effect
and
I
think
it's
very
important
for
our
community
to
understand
that
effect
of
our
healthcare
system.
When
we
talk
about
this,
it's
not
it's,
not
a
scare
tactic.
F
It's
real
and,
like
I
said
in
the
last
seven
days
that
actually
happened
here
now
we
had
a
quick
turnaround.
It
lasted
three
hours,
but
that
is
nonetheless
something
that
is
very
concerning
that
we
all
work
on
daily
to
make
sure
that
we
have
services
always
being
able
to
be
provided
to
the
community.
So
with
that,
I
will
get
into
the
presentation.
F
Madam
mayor,
thank
you
for
the
introduction.
As
far
as
covet
information
goes,
we
wanted
to
bring
to
you
the
most
recent
information
that
is
out
there
specific
to
some
of
the
vaccines
and
some
of
the
other
data
that
we
see
here
in
the
city
and
in
the
county.
F
The
big
step
that
we
were
waiting
for
is
the
pfizer
vaccine
being
approved
for
full
use.
There's
been
folks
quite
honestly
that
I've
talked
to
one
on
one,
some
in
the
fire
service
and
some
just
in
the
community
about
concerns
of
our
vaccines
and
one
of
those
concerns
is
under
an
eau
or
eua.
They
were
not
yet
ready
to
take
that
leap.
They
were
saying
I
want
to
see
when
it
gets
full
approval
and
we've
had
full
approval
now
from
the
fda
on
the
pfizer
vaccine.
Under
that
brand
name
of
com,
you
can
read
it.
F
Closer
than
I
got
that
is
approved
for
ages,
16
and
up,
we
do
understand
that
the
moderna
vaccine
should
be
right
behind
it
within
hopefully
the
next
couple
of
weeks.
That's
in
that's
very
important,
I
believe,
because
then
there's
also
the
discussion
about
boosters.
We've
all
seen
the
news
where
boosters
have
been
approved
for
moderna
and
pfizer
for
immunocompromised
individuals.
We
anticipate
that
fairly
soon
that's
going
to
be
approved
by
the
fda
and
supported
by
the
cdc
for
the
general
population.
F
If
that
happens,
we're
looking
at
the
week
of
september
20th
to
possibly
start
rolling
that
out.
That's
that
eight
eight-week
window
that
everybody
talks
about
so
those
two
things
alone,
I
think,
are
very
positive
and
they'll
also
help
support
and
protect
communities,
including
ours.
Just
another
word
to
reinforce
this.
The
question
comes
up
quite
a
bit.
Can
I
mix
the
brands?
In
other
words,
if
I
got
moderna,
but
now
pfizer
is
only
available
for
the
booster.
F
The
one
thing
that
we
keep
hearing
on
boosters
is
that
the
johnson
johnson
vaccine
has
not
yet
been
recommended
for
boosters
and
it's
going
through
that
full
approval
process
with
the
fda,
and
it's
not
there
yet,
and
so
that's
just
some
quick
information
on
vaccines
and
what's
happened
recently
and
then
the
other
one
making
the
news
right
now
is
the
delta
variant.
Just
to
recap.
F
On
that
a
little
bit,
it
is
two
times
more
contagious
than
the
previous
variants
and
I
think,
with
these
variants
of
concern
or
various
of
interest,
whichever
one
you,
you
prefer
we're
seeing
a
more
contagious
aspect
of
the
of
the
virus,
and
so
I
think,
with
delta
I'll
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
other
variants
to
come,
potentially
we're
going
to
see
a
more
contagious
virus.
F
We
do
know
that
vaccinated
individuals.
There
are,
there
have
been
some
breakthroughs,
but
those
folks
are
not
ending
up
in
hospitals
for
the
most
part,
there's
some
very
rare
cases,
but
for
the
most
part,
the
severity
of
illness.
The
severity
of
sickness
is
decreased
significantly
for
those
that
are
vaccinated
for
those
that
are
unvaccinated.
F
Those
are
the
folks
that
are
ending
up
in
our
hospitals
and
we
are
seeing
sicker
quicker
and
we're
seeing
a
younger
population
in
the
unvaccinated
that
that
are
getting
hospitalized,
the
other
variants
that
are
likely
to
come
that
are
out
there.
Currently,
these
are
variants
of
interest
or
variance
of
concern,
there's
alpha,
which
has
really
come
through
and
gone
almost
beta,
gamma
delta,
ada
iota
cap
and
lambda.
Those
are
the
other
variants
of
interest
and
those
are
simply
through
a
mutation
of
the
virus.
F
I
do
want
to
talk
about
the
objectives,
the
priorities
that
the
mayor
alluded
to
earlier,
and
these
are
the
six
that
we've
discussed
and
agreed
upon,
and
it's
the
the
six
areas
of
focus
that
our
city
staff
are
working
on
as
well
to
ensure
that
we
are
meeting
the
first
and
foremost
support
health
care
and
public
health
and
the
response
efforts
to
kova
19..
We
have
regular
interaction
with
the
hospital
systems
we
understand,
where
they're
at
on
a
daily
basis
and
how
we
can
help
in
meeting
their
response
needs.
F
F
When
the
mass
came
back
and
the
delta
variance
started
to
rise,
there
was
a
collective
head
down
a
collective
darn
it-
and
I
used
that
word
because
I'm
on
the
record,
but
but
really
that's
the
way,
people
felt
that
takes
a
mental
health
toll
on
folks,
and
so
we
want
to
make
sure
we're
communicating
with
our
employees
at
all
times
that
we
can
understand
how
we
can
be
there
for
them,
as
well
as
ensure
their
physical
well-being
and
their
safety.
F
F
We
will
promote
our
vaccine
efforts
and
then
also
the
last
one
is
to
maintain
a
covet-19
dashboard
made
up
of
the
most
significant
data
points
we
can
find
where
we
can
analyze
trends
up
and
down,
to
give
our
policy
makers
and
the
mayor
the
best
information
we
possibly
can
so
we're
making
very
good
decisions.
Moving
forward
some
current
data-
and
again
I
will
just
say
this-
data
is
data.
It's
numbers,
it
does
tell
a
story,
but
it
has
to
be
taken
in
context.
So
there's
a
bunch
of
different
data
points
we
can
look
at.
F
I
chose
to
put
these
three
up
because
this
is
kind
of
where
we're
at
today
as
far
as
vaccine
status,
so
in
our
employee
vaccine
status,
this
is
all
just
through
the
healthcare
trust
data
46
of
our
non-public
safety
population.
That's
employees,
independents
are
vaccinated.
We
have
about
65
percent
of
our
public
safety,
employee,
that's
non-dependents.
I
know
it's
a
little
bit
confusing
or
vaccinated.
F
Those
numbers
continue
to
rise,
as
does
the
general
population.
We
have
about
an
average
of
65
vaccination
rates
to
our
10
zip
codes.
That's
up
approximately
3
since
june
30th.
We're
continuing
to
see
that
rise.
We
also
have
an
additional
8741
individuals
in
our
city
that
received
at
least
one
dose
since
6
30..
We
do
believe
now
that
pfizer
has
gone
with
full
approval
and
modern
is
not
too
far
behind
we're
going
to
track
these
numbers
to
see
if
we're
rising
again
and
the
goal
is
to
certainly
rise.
F
Some
employee
data
since
july
1st,
thanks
to
corey
pence,
always
awesome
in
getting
some
information
out
to
us.
Since
july
1st
we've
had
22
positive,
covet
19
cases
we've
had
27
quarantines.
Some
of
those
quarantines
are
just
close
contact.
Even
if
they're
vaccinated
there's
been
some
confusion
over
the
course
of
time
on.
Do
you
have
to
quarantine?
Do
you
not
so
some
of
those
quarantines
myself
included,
I
was
notified
by
a
hospital.
I
had
a
close
contact,
I'm
vaccinated.
F
So
technically
I
didn't
have
quarantine,
but
I
was
told
to
quarantine
for
seven
days
and
so
there's
a
little
bit
of
that
going
on,
but
that's.
F
C
Hi,
thanks
chief
just
a
quick
question
about
that:
the
46
of
the
non-uh
public
safety
employees
that
you
say
includes
their
dependents.
Do
we
know
how
many
of
those
are
too
young
to
be
eligible
for
a
vaccine.
C
Be
good
to
know
that
I
guess
the
second
question
would
be
do
we
have
any
specific
ideas
about
how
we'll
now
ensure
that
all
employees
know
that
the
pfizer
vaccine
has
been
fully
accepted?
That's.
C
And
then
last
question:
do
we
know
of
those
non-public
safety
employees?
How
many
of
them
have
a
public-facing
job,
in
other
words
a
job
where
they
interact
with
the
public.
F
A
little
bit
of
current
ada
county
data
and
I
think
at
the
very
tail
end
there
you'll
see
we
are
down
a
little
bit
but
keep
in
mind
with
regards
to
positivity
and
positive
rates
that
that
data
lags
behind.
It
always
has,
and
it
always
will
a
little
bit.
So,
even
though
we're
seeing
what
appears
to
be
a
slight
downward
trend
in
this
last
week,
there's
going
to
be
more
cases
come
in
that
cdh
will
capture
and
then
update
these
data
sources.
F
F
As
far
as
numbers
and
capacity
goes,
I
can
tell
you
in
the
pre-hospital
environment,
we're
seeing
the
exact
same
trend
line,
and
it's
about
an
eight
percent
rise
in
call
volume
that
we
saw
in
the
last
quarter
as
our
ems
system
collectively,
which
is
about
the
same
rise
that
we
see
in
the
hospitals
and
the
bed
availability.
So
there's
a
pretty
direct
correlation.
F
F
I
do
want
to
just
remind
everybody
where
good
information
can
be
found.
It's
easy
to
get
overloaded
with
information
it's
hard,
sometimes
to
determine
what's
the
right
source.
Where
do
I
go
central
district
health
has
a
great
dashboard
that
they've
had
in
place
for
quite
a
while.
It's
a
tableau,
dashboard,
it's
readily
available
to
the
public.
It's
outward
facing.
F
The
state
of
idaho
also
has
a
very
good
coronavirus,
tableau
dashboard
as
well
the
cdc
the
website's
there
for
the
cdc,
and,
quite
honestly,
I
think
john
hopkins
has
done
one
of
the
best
jobs
of
articulating
data
they
collected
from
a
national
level.
They
put
it
into
a
format,
that's
pretty
easy
to
read
and
pretty
easy
to
understand,
and
so
I
would
certainly
encourage
folks
to
check
out
johns
hopkins
website
as
well
for
information.
F
I
want
to
talk
just
lastly,
a
little
bit
about
partnerships.
You
know
the
easy
question:
the
hard
answer
would
be.
How
long
is
this
going
to
go
on,
and
I
don't
think
anybody
knows.
I
don't
think
the
epidemiologists
know.
I
think,
there's
there's
fear
that
we
could
be
in
this
for
a
while
that
the
strains
are
going
to
come
and
go
just
like
we
see
with
any
other
virus
or
any
other
flu.
F
It
was
shocking
to
see
and
how
quickly
we
came
together
about
14
months
after
9
11.
I
got
to
sit
next
to
a
battalion
chief
that
was
on
duty
that
day,
with
fdny
biggest
fire
department
in
the
whole
nation
most
affected
on
9
11.,
and
I
simply
asked
him.
What
did
you
learn
that
day?
It
was
different
than
anything.
You
would
learn
before
they're,
a
big
enough
fire
department.
They
handle
everything
in
the
city
of
new
york
and
he
looked
at
me
and
said
the
one
thing
we
realized
that
day
is.
F
We
can't
do
it
all
on
our
own
and
they
went
into
that
thinking.
They
could
do
it
all
on
their
own;
they
quickly
realized
they
couldn't.
So
as
we
go
through
this
crisis,
our
today
crisis,
it
reminds
me
that
partnerships
are
going
to
continue
to
be
needed
as
we
move
forward.
We
have
to
work
with
one
another
to
really
get
through
this,
and
I
think
that
some
of
the
logos
you
see
on
there
are
folks
that
we've
been
partnering
with
for
a
very
long
time
and
will
continue
to
so
with
that
mayor.
F
I
want
to
keep
it
somewhat
brief,
certainly
for
comments,
questions,
information
sharing,
anything
we
can
answer.
G
Madam
mayor,
thank
you.
Thank
you
chief.
I
really
appreciate
you
pointing
out
the
fact
that
you
know
this.
Ongoing
situation
has
really
taken
a
toll
on
not
only
people's
physical
health
but
their
mental
health.
G
I
I
think
if
we
can
keep
extending
grace
towards
each
other
and
being
generous
in
our
thinking
towards
each
other
that
we're
operating
under
a
lot
of
fatigue
and
still
a
very
urgent
situation,
one
thing
that
I've
noted
as
I've
ventured
out
here
and
there
been
very
particular
about
where
I
go,
but
I've
gone
to
two
public
events,
and
I
was
very
pleased
to
see
I
think
one
of
our
partners
there
inoculating
people,
I
think,
is
it
rock
the
shot,
I
think,
is
what
it's
called.
G
I
don't
know
who's
who's
doing
that,
but
but
that
is
something
that
I've
noticed.
I
I
went
to
a
concert
at
the
botanical
gardens
and
somebody
was
inoculating
folks.
There
went
to
the
soul,
food
festival
and
meridian
and
folks
were
there.
As
you
know,
we
have
a
lot
of
events
coming
up
next
month,
primarily
tree
fort
are,
are
we
going
to
be
making
a
push
or
do
we
do?
We
see
these
partners
really
amping
up
that
opportunity
for
folks
to
have
the
shot
brought
to
them
and
hopefully
get
those
inoculation
numbers
up.
A
I'll
just
jump
in
here
with
one
of
those
events
this
weekend,
I'm
so
mark
will
be
able
to
share
more
information
on
what
more
is
happening,
but
this
weekend
at
the
zoo
from
I
think
ten
to
two,
if
you
show,
will
have
a
vaccination
tent
there,
and
if
you
show
up
at
the
zoo
and
get
a
vaccination
you
can
get
in
without
paying
an
entry
fee.
So
the
city
itself
is
is
coming
up
with
ways
to
make
vaccinations
available
to
others
as
well.
G
Thank
you,
madam
mayor,
and
just
one
more
question.
I
I
saw
the
the
graph
of
numbers
in
there.
Do
you
know
if
we're
keeping
track
of
the
racial
and
ethnic
information
I
mean.
We've
we've
heard
over
the
last
over
a
year
how
vulnerable
the
latino
community
is
to
covid
and
just
ensuring
that
that
they
have
access,
because
a
lot
of
folks
are
essential
workers
and
they
don't
have
the
ease
of
schedule,
and
that
goes
across
the
board.
Anybody
who's
doing
that
essential
type
work
to
ensure
that
they
have
access
as
well.
F
Madam
mayor
council,
pro
tem
sanchez,
the
information
that
data
is
out
there
getting
the
data
is,
is
a
little
bit
harder.
People
like
to
sometimes
hang
on
to
that
data,
depending
on
what
agency
they
are
and
at
what
level
we're,
certainly
making
a
push
to
the
state,
and
so
far
they've
been
responsive
to
that
to
grab
some
of
that
information
that
data.
We
cannot
do
good
public
outreach
unless
we
know
where
the
challenges
are
right.
That's
what
data
tells
us
and
so
we're
really
pushing
hard
to
get
that
data.
G
F
C
Chief,
you,
you
showed
the
graph
of
icu
and
non-icu
over
time,
and
I
noted
that
the
icu
is
a
much
steeper
curve
than
it
was
the
last
time
like
you,
I've
read
the
data
that
says
that
people
are
getting
sicker
quicker
if
they're
not
vaccinated
from
this
variant.
Is
that
a
reflection
of
that
and-
and
I
guess
more
importantly,
what
does
that
mean
in
terms
of
icu
capacity.
F
Great
question:
I
think
that
the
graph
I
want
to
make
sure
it's
not
misleading.
I
think
it's
it's
a
culmination
of
a
few
things
right,
we're
we're
in
summer,
so
tech,
if
you
think
about
injuries
and
illness.
Sometimes
our
most
critical
injuries
happen
in
the
summertime
that
require
icu,
ccu
hospitalization,
and
then
you
add
on
the
layer
of
covet
on
top
of
that
some
are
coming
in
with
covet,
but
with
other
primary
injuries.
Some
are
coming
in
with
primary
cova
diagnosis.
F
So
that's
it's
the
two
coming
together
that
are
really
filling
those
icu's
and
ccu's
and
the
capacity
there
we
do
have
a
great
plan
in
place.
We
basically
exercise
that
the
first
go
around
where
we
can
set
up
mobile
field
hospitals,
that's
where
our
ems
system
gets
involved
as
well,
so
we
can
add
capacity,
but
the
the
frightening
thing
right
now
is
how
quickly
that
capacity
was
was
gained.
F
I
guess
for
lack
of
a
better
word,
so
I
don't
know
if
that
answered
your
question
directly
through
those
daily
calls,
and
how
can
we
assist?
How
can
we
be
a
part
of
the
solution
when
it
comes
to
that
capacities?
Challenge
yeah.
C
Thank
you.
I
just
think
it's
important
for
people
to
be
aware
that
this
is
acting
differently
this
time
and
it
could
have
a
different
impact
on
our
healthcare
capacity
and
our
response
to
it.
A
And
now
we
have
our
quarterly
report
welcome
mike.
I
still
think
we
can
get
out
of
here
by
one.
H
You
should
have
received
a
electronic
copy
of
the
report.
This
is
the
cover
it's
from
world
refugee
day.
I
understand,
and
first
just
talking
about
some
of
the
the
numbers
general
fund
revenues.
In
a
nutshell,
our
revenues
have
largely
returned
to
normal
ranges
and
levels.
Three
of
them-
I
guess
property
tax
is,
is
the
big
one
always
worth
talking
about.
It
is
tracking,
as
it
normally
does.
H
The
levy
amount
is
lower
this
year,
due
to
the
the
state's
grant
initiative
program
which
we
participated
in,
but
three
revenues
that
are
up
sales,
tax,
development
fees
and
liquor
tax
have
all
significantly
above
budget
sales,
tax
and
development
fees.
As
I
talk
about
later,
we
have
conservative
budgets
there.
That
is
part
of
the
issue,
but
nonetheless,
sales
tax
is
doing
very
well
as
our
development
fees
and
at
liquor.
Tax.
H
Three
revenues
which
are
lower
or
down
parcc
user
fees
are
coming
back,
they've
done
well,
we
reduced
the
budget,
but
they're
not
where
they
were
say
two
years
ago.
H
Fines
and
forfeitures
are
similar
parking
is,
is
coming
back,
is
getting
close
to
trend,
but
it's
still
not
quite
there,
but
all
in
all
things
are
tracking
close
to
normal
ranges.
H
On
the
expense
side
kind
of,
in
a
nutshell,
there,
expenses
are
probably
tracking
a
little
bit
below
last
year.
Personnel
cost
is
slightly
lower
in
terms
of
percent
of
budget
expended
we're
at
70
percent
71.
Last
year
we
had
significant
vacancies
last
year,
we're
probably
even
a
little
bit
higher
this
year
with
vacancies
just
with
the
labor
market,
quickly
getting
very
tight
one
item.
There
is
bus
operations,
which
is
vrt
payments.
H
Some
payments
have
not
been
booked
yet
for
vrt,
some
of
those
are
likely
going
to
be
used
in
other
ways
for
transportation,
but
that
is
normally
something
picked
early
in
the
year
and
we're
only
at
30
percent
of
the
budget
that
is
largely
responsible
for
our
maintenance
operations.
Only
being
half
spent
at
this
point.
So
again,
expenses
are
trending
a
little
bit
lower
than
last
year
and
staffing
costs
are
lower.
Staffing
costs
are
a
big
part
of
that
too.
H
So,
looking
ahead
to
end
of
year,
one
quarter
way
we
are
anticipating
significant
end
of
year
funds.
Last
quarter
I
mentioned
we
may
be
doing
some
budget
changes
and
then
what
we
did
in
the
budget
is.
We
ended
up
planning
to
take
some
carry
forward
funds
into
next
year
at
your
end
and
then
using
that
to
pay
off
some
some
of
the
city's.
H
General
obligation
debt,
so
we
are
going
to
plan
for
that
and
given
the
conservative
revenue
budgets,
particularly
sales
tax
development
fees,
again
we're
expecting
to
have
a
significant
leftover
funds
there
and
then
the
significant
staff
vacancies
and
some
budget
underspend
that
goes
with
that,
and
that
is
due
to
again
with
fewer
staff.
H
We
don't
do
as
much
travel
training
and
quote
has
also
affected
that
we
also
have
some
buildings
which
are
not
open
as
much
saving
some
costs,
so
we're
just
just
having
some
cost
savings
throughout
our
our
financials
that
are
showing
up,
and
what
we
are
looking
at
for
next
year
is
17.4
million
of
carryover
funds
and
then
about
14.3
million
of
that
would
go
towards
some
debt
repayment,
or
that
is
the
plan
anyway,
and
it
is
possible.
This
is
very
challenging
to
forecast
with
things
moving
around
and
shaking
out.
H
It
is
possible
there
could
be
some
additional
year-end
funds.
On
top
of
that.
H
Transitioning
to
the
economic
brief,
just
with
unemployment,
as
I
mentioned
a
couple
minutes
ago,
the
labor
market
has
quickly
tightened.
H
The
graphs
are
ski
hill
type
of
graphs,
where
last
year
things
fell
and
then
they've
been
working
their
way
back
and
now
the
market
has
gotten
tight
quite
quickly.
During
the
quarter
april
or
june,
unemployment
went
from
3.6
fell
to
3
percent
july
came
out
the
last
couple
days
that
was
2.7,
we're
probably
likely
headed
down
in
the
low
two
percent
range.
Four
percent
is
generally
considered
full
on
full
employment.
H
Also,
we
just
always
look
at
other
cities,
particularly
in
in
the
west
and
the
northwest
and
boise
and
salt
lake.
This
is
the
metropolitan
statistical
area,
a
little
bit
larger
area
than
boise,
but
we're
at
3.2
percent,
as
is
salt
lake
city,
and
that
ties
for
18th
out
of
almost
400
msas
in
the
country.
So
we
are
doing
better
than
many
other
places.
There's
improvement
throughout
the
country
throughout
these
other
cities,
but
we
are
doing
quite
well
as
we
were
before
the
pandemic.
H
H
It
just
indicates
we
haven't
grown
from
where
we
were
before,
but
we're
kind
of
back
where
we
were.
We
probably
have
some
businesses
which
have
shut
down
and
some
changes,
but
it
is
tracking
closely
and
we
will
see
when
we
start
getting
some
growth
and
move
forward
from
where
we
were
before
the
pandemic.
H
H
Housing
inventory
is
improving,
it
is
still
low
and
mortgage
rates
remain
low,
but
there
is
some
sign
of
some
change
there,
but
again
we're
still
talking
pretty
low
levels.
The
media
and
home
sales
prices
in
idaho
rose
34
from
june
to
june
an
extreme
number
no
surprise
there.
The
next
closest
states
were
montana
and
arizona
like
26
percent,
so
very
large
increases,
as
as
we
have
have
seen,
sales
tax
also
is
presenting
extreme
number.
H
The
numbers
for
revenue
sharing
in
the
second
quarter
increased
20,
and
if
we
look
back
at
the
same
quarter
of
the
year
before
it
was
36
percent,
these
numbers
were
so
high.
I
have
to
keep
going
back
to
see
that
I
didn't
miscalculate
something,
but
it
shows
again
very
high
numbers.
It's
due
to
the
economy
doing
well,
it's
student
migration.
It's
due
to
stimulus.
It's
due
to
things
just
coming
back,
it'll
have
to
slow
down,
but
again
some
very
large
numbers,
a
lot
of
volatility
in
the
marketplace
and
again
just
so.
H
You
know
we
were
limited
to
one
percent
growth
due
to
some
new
legislation,
but
last
year
sales
tax
did
hold
up,
so
our
our
budget
is
low
as
a
result,
and
we
did
get
growth
a
year
ago,
as
this
was
starting
airport
traffic
improved
during
the
quarter
june
was
nearly
equal
to
june
2019
and
just
saw
july
numbers
today,
and
I
have
that
on
a
graph
on
the
next
slide,
and
there
was
about
ten
percent
growth
over
july
of
night
2019,
so
new
flights
and
things
air
travel
is
coming
back
very
quickly.
H
Then
another
kind
of
extreme
number
consumer
sentiment
dropped
significantly
in
august
a
week
or
two
ago
to
a
10-year
low.
The
delta
variant
has
something
to
do
with
that
and
and
concerns
about
the
economy
and
other
things
wearing
off
of
the
stimulus
payments
probably
has
something
to
do
with
it
as
well,
along
with
concerns
about
inflation.
So
again,
just
lots
of
things
still
settling
out
for
the
year.
Gross
domestic
product
is
projected
to
grow
6.6
percent,
a
big
comeback
from
declining
last
year
and
then
also
grow
five
percent
next
year.
H
H
Here
are
the
two
graphs
I
was
talking
about.
I
just
updated
them
today.
The
top
left
graph
shows
boise
employment
and
you
can
see
a
light
blue
line
on
top
of
the
green
line
going
across
the
top,
and
you
can
see
how
close
the
numbers
are
tracking
to
2019
as
far
as
total
boys
employment.
But
we
have
come
back
from
where
we
were
last
year
and
then
the
lower
right
graph
shows
the
air
traffic,
the
blue
line
that
is
coming
up
and
met
the
green
line
and
surpassed
it
here
in
july.
H
So,
in
summary,
most
operating
revenues
have
returned
to
normal
ranges:
expenditures
are
below
budget
driven
by
significant
staff
vacancies
and
we
do
expect
to
have
significant
year-end
funds.
Economic
conditions
are
generally
favorable,
but
just
numerous
things
are
highly
variable.
Right
now:
look
at
the
labor
market,
housing,
consumer
confidence,
inflation
they're
still
shaking
out.
C
There's
not
well.
Thank
you
appreciate
the
update
look
forward
to
seeing
the
end
of
year
numbers.
C
Well,
with
that,
we
are
at
the
end
of
our
agenda.
We
have
no
unfinished
business
or
new
business.
I'd.
Take
a
motion
to
adjourn
madam
mayor
motion
to
adjourn
second,
all
those
in
favor
all
right.
