Description

A
Well,
hello
and
welcome
back
everybody.
We've
we
already
called
roll
this
morning,
so
we'll
go
ahead
and
move
right
into
request
for
approval
of
the
minutes,
and
just
so
folks
are
aware
of
the
sequence
of
events
and
we're
going
to
do
our
noon.
Business,
the
noon
council
meeting
first,
and
so
there
are
two
items
under
special
business:
arpa
funding
and
that's
the
recovery
funding
investments
that
we're
proposing
to
make
and
then
findings
for
interfaith,
we'll,
wrap
up
the
council
meeting
and
then
move
right
back
into
our
budget
workshop.
B
A
B
A
Without
objection,
all
right,
thank
you
and
with
that
we'll
hear
the
consent
to
giant
agenda,
all
items
with
an
asterisk
are
considered
to
be
routine
by
the
council
and
will
be
enacted
in
one
motion.
There's
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.
B
A
E
B
B
A
A
Thank
you
and
now
we'll
move
on
to
special
business.
The
first
is
a
discussion
about
the
allocation
of
arpa
funding.
That's
the
federal
recovery
dollars.
I'm
really
excited
to
have
chloe
here
to
talk
with
us
about
this
and
to
hear
to
share
with
us
the
proposals
from
staff
for
these
investments.
You
know
this
is
an
exciting
time.
It's
an
opportunity
for
all
of
us
to
make
investments
in
our
community
to
not
only
address
the
needs
of
today,
but
really
shore
up
and
prepare
for
the
needs
of
the
future.
A
For
our
city,
as
we've
all
recognized,
the
pandemic
hasn't
been
the
pandemic,
and
actually
the
recovery
haven't
been
the
same
and
for
everyone
in
our
community
and
so
based
on
guidance
from
council
early
on.
We
wanted
to
look
at
how
we
make
investments
direct
in
our
community,
in
partnership
with
other
organizations,
to
address
that
the
impact
that
the
pandemic
has
had
on
businesses
and
individuals
in
our
community
but
at
the
same
time,
to
make
some
really
impactful
generational,
long-term
investments,
and
so
with
this
recovery
funding
and
from
what
we
hear
from
chloe.
A
And
these
proposals
came
from
the
sessions.
The
listening
sessions
that
many
of
you
attended
at
the
end
of
what
are
we
in
at
the
end
of
2021,
as
well
as
fairly
extensive
community
feedback
that
we
saw
online
and
through
other
channels,
and
it
was
with
that
feedback
that
was
shared
with
us-
that
then
staff
worked
with
community
partners
to
put
together
the
the
proposals
that
were
we'll
hear
today.
A
So
thanks
chloe
for
being
here,
I
want
to
say
thanks
to,
of
course,
all
the
department
heads
that
are
here
in
the
room,
but
also
to
the
community
partners
that
helped
establish
these
proposals
and
the
many
many
boiseans
that
came
together
at
listening
sessions
and
online
to
share
with
us
the
impacts
that
they
had
experienced
and
the
needs
that
they
believed
that
they
and
their
communities
had,
but
importantly,
the
vision
they
had
for
our
community
and
what
we
can
do
with
these
investments
and
we'll
talk
about
them.
Now.
F
Thank
you
mayor,
good
afternoon,
boise
city
council.
I
am
here
today
to
provide
you
with
an
overview
of
the
work
that
has
taken
place
in
the
past
many
months
to
identify
and
prioritize
the
impactful
city
projects
that
staff
is
recommending
for
funding
by
the
local
american
rescue
plan
act
dollars
that
we
received
as
part
of
the
federal
government's
covid
response
effort.
F
F
F
As
soon
as
the
city
received
the
funding
staff
set
about
working
to
identify
and
prioritize
the
projects.
However,
the
final
treasury
guidance
on
how
to
specifically
utilize
these
funds
and
the
details
around
that
was
not
released
until
january
of
this
year.
Now
that
we
have
those
guidelines,
they
were
really
instrumental
in
shaping
the
recommendations
and
the
projects
that
we
are
making.
F
F
We
received
over
300
responses
in
the
portal
and
over
40
people
attended
the
in
person
listening
sessions
that
took
place
late
last
year.
Staff
also
met
extensively
with
community
partners
and
non-profits
who
are
living
in
these
areas
and
providing
services
to
gain
additional
insights
into
what
the
needs
and
gaps
are.
F
We
then
took
the
community
feedback
on
the
themes
of
which
are
on
the
slide
in
front
of
you.
We
align
them
with
the
mayor
and
council's
guidance
for
for
spending
and
then
further
match
those
up
with
the
budget
and
portfolio
priorities
of
the
council
to
to
come
up
with
high
level
funding
recommendations.
F
Here
is
how
this
shook
out.
At
a
high
level,
staff
is
recommending
12
million
go
to
affordable
housing.
This
will
go
towards
existing
and
future
projects
to
increase
affordability
and
supply,
of
which
director
keane
has
outlined
a
strategy.
In
the
recent
past,
10
million
is
being
recommended
to
go
towards
climate
adaptation
projects.
F
F
And
then
2.6
has
been
set
aside
and
is
being
recommended
for
administrative
costs
pertaining
to
programmatic
support
of
this
project
as
a
whole.
This
represents
about
seven
percent
of
the
total
arba
amount
that
we
have
received
and
will
go
towards
programmatic
support,
for
example,
we're
working
with
consultants
to
ensure
eligibility,
we're.
F
I
am
the
I
am
the
messenger
and
I
was
hoping
that
kate
would
be
here
to
call
on
for
any
more
detailed
questions
the
council
might
have.
Unfortunately,
she
is
unwell
today,
so
I
might
need
to
follow
up
based
on
council's
questions,
which
I'm
happy
to
do
within
that
full
10.2
million.
You
will
see
a
breakdown
within
each
area.
F
These
projects
have
been
designed
based
on
that
community
feedback
that
we
heard
related
to
child
care.
Boiseans
have
made
it
very
clear
that
the
high
cost
and
lack
of
facilities
have
made
child
care
in
boise
very
difficult
to
access
and
low
wages
for
child
care.
Workers
and
providers
is
a
significant
factor
in
this
environment,
as
such
staff
developed
an
approach
that
would
provide
incentive,
pay
to
child
care
workers
and
providers
who
endured
the
challenging
workplace
conditions
and
stayed
in
the
in
the
workplace
throughout
the
pandemic.
F
Community
feedback
also
exposed
a
desire
to
address
food
insecurity
in
our
city,
based
on
the
range
of
ideas
and
needs
in
the
community.
This
project
focuses
on
developing
a
comprehensive,
sustainable
local
food
system
that
uses
a
hub
and
spoke
model
where
a
lead
agency
is
identified
and
then
collaborates
and
coordinates
with
a
group
of
service
providers
in
the
area
to
achieve
a
shared
goal
or
vision.
So
the
idea
is
that
that
the
shared
goal
would
ideally
include
a
permanent
space
for
a
community
food
hub.
F
Mental
health
has
continued
to
be
a
challenge
throughout
this
pandemic,
and
that
is
what
we
heard
from
our
community
feedback
as
well.
The
goal
of
this
project
is
to
expand
access
to
mental
health
services
by
supporting
existing
service
providers
and
programs
that
are
really
targeting
underserved
and
uninsured
clients,
while
also
growing
and
sustaining
group
therapy
opportunities
and
then
finally,
the
small
business
support
most
community
respondents.
We
heard
from
strongly
support,
maintaining
and
preserving
small
businesses
and
ensuring
that
residents
who
work
in
boise
are
receiving
a
livable
wage
for
the
work
they
do.
F
A
And
chloe
just
to
follow
up
on
that.
So
as
we
set
these
up,
as
in
the
past,
we'll
look
first
off,
there's
partners
involved
in
all
of
them.
Our
goal
was
to
not
just
have
our
investment,
be
the
only
investment
so
in
some
ways
we're
seeking
partnership
and
additional
funds
to
grow
these
programs,
but
then
rfps
or
the
other
process
would
follow
next
correct.
F
Correct
so
the
mental
health
and
food
security
will
be
rfps
that
are
competitive
opportunities
for
people
to
learn
about
and
apply
for,
and
then
with
the
small
business
and
child
care.
There
will
be
outreach
to
recipients
who
will
need
to
provide
a
little
bit
of
additional
information
about
their
eligibility
to
us.
G
Mary
just
a
quick
comment:
I'm
super
proud
of
our
city
and
our
internal
audits
job
in
getting
emergency
funds
out
during
the
past
couple
years.
One
of
the
things
that
I
brought
up
a
couple
of
times
is
there
were
some
businesses
that
submitted
requests
for
funds
that
were
eligible
for
funds
but
made
a
few
small
technical
errors.
A
Yes
and
that's
that
we
have
heard
that
from
you
and
from
others,
and
it's
definitely
something
that's
under
consideration
and
united
way
is
or
will
be
aware
of
it,
but
also
I
mean
now
that
we've
we're
so
distanced
from
from
that
time.
Another
big
piece
of
consideration
will
be:
are
those
that
were
disqualified
still
in
need
of
resources
or
have
they
weathered
this
storm?
Okay,
recognizing,
as
we've
mentioned,
that
some
people
came
out,
just
fine
or
better
others
didn't
and
so
that'll
be
a
big
piece
of
this.
F
Thank
you,
madam
mayor
and
council
member
holly
burton
we
have
polled
oh
just
really
quickly.
We
have
pulled
a
list
of
potential
small
businesses
that
we
think
would
be
eligible
and
are
planning
to
bring
in
that
original
list,
as
well,
just
to
sort
of
predict
who
will
be
able
to
reach
and
how.
So.
We
will
definitely
consider
that.
B
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Chloe.
This
exciting
list
is
comprehensive.
I
think
it
really
does
hit
on
the
themes
that
we
heard
from
both
the
community
and
from
the
council
members.
I
just
want
to
talk
about
process.
As
you
know,
I
always
want
to
talk
about
process
we'll
approve
this
today.
Some
of
these
will
come
back
in
other
forms
through
the
rfp
through
our
housing
program
for
final
approval
of
how
the
funds
are
actually
expended.
B
So
I
guess
I'm
just
asking
once
we
approve
this
today.
If
we
could
get
a
list
of,
or
you
know,
a
memo
how
they'll
be
spent,
which
ones
will
come
back
to
us,
which
ones
some
of
the
like.
The
broadband
I
think
is
already
set
up.
The
united
way
part
is
already
set
up,
I'm
not
quite
sure
which
other
ones.
That
would
be
helpful
for
me.
F
Madam
mayor
council,
president
clegg,
you
have
jumped
to
my
next
slide,
which
would
be
that
we
do
plan
to
allocate
where
we
are
hoping
that
the
council
will
approve
the
allocation
today
and
then
we'll
plan
on
bringing
quarterly
updates
to
you,
as
well
as
major
project
updates.
That
would
be
specific
or
more
broadly,
via
memo
as
they
come
up.
H
You
were
yeah,
it
was
a
long
line.
Thank
you,
madam
here.
Thank
you
chloe.
Can
we
go
back
to
that
previous
slide
so,
and
you
may
or
may
not
be
able
to
answer
this,
but
I
just
want
to
ask
these
questions
so
the
incentive
pay
for
child
care
workers,
I'm
wondering
if
there's
any
part
of
that
funding
that
could
be
used
to
provide
professional
development
like
if
folks
are
looking
to
increase
their
knowledge
as
child
care
providers.
H
F
E
E
One
of
the
things
I
was
really
looking
forward
to
with
this
with
this
chunk
of
investment
is
potentially
looking
at
ways
that
we
can
use
that
to
reduce
the
bonding
burden
of
our
larger
water
renewal
projects,
and
so
I'm
sure
that
steve
is
going
to
cover
this,
but
I
just
wanted
to
like
get
it
out
there
so
that
he
could
be
thinking
about
it
before
he
presents
to
us.
Thank.
F
A
E
E
And
I
think
that
the
pandemic
kind
of
showed
us
where
our
weak
spots
are,
and
the
intention
of
this
funding
is
to
address
where
some
of
those
weak
spots
were
found.
And
I
think
that
this
overall
financial
plan
gets
into
those
little
weak
areas.
So
I'm
looking
forward
to
seeing
how
that
creates
a
little
bit
more
resiliency
and
strength
going
into
the
future.
Thank
you.
G
Madam
mary,
I
just
wanted
to
quickly
commend
you
and
your
team
for
the
outreach
that
you
did
in
trying
to
explore
the
different
areas
that
we
really
needed
to
address
here.
I
think
that,
while
a
lot
of
the
areas
were
exposed,
the
nuances
of
it
often
aren't
so
when
it
comes
to
really
addressing
the
community
that
was
disproportionately
affected.
G
A
Well,
I
appreciate
that
councilmember
halliburton.
I
really
want
to
say
it
was
our
city
staff
that
did
an
incredible
job
of
outreach
with
the
community.
The
department
of
community
engagement
organized
the
listening
sessions.
They
organized
the
online
and
feedback
tools
and
then-
and
I
don't
know
about
those
of
you
that
sat
in
those
community
listening
sessions,
but
I
was
struck
at
how
nuanced
in
many
ways
the
needs
were,
but
also
how,
despite
the
differing
populations
and
differing
neighborhoods,
that
showed
up
to
talk
how
similar
many
of
the
needs
were.
A
So
there
was
both
similarity
in
the
sense
that
so
many
folks
were
struggling
needing
access
to
the
same
things
which
are
addressed
in
this,
but
also
nuance,
and
how
best
to
do
it
and
that's
how
the
community
partnerships
were
born.
So
it
was.
Community
engagement
was
chloe
and
kate
in
my
office,
but
also
then
the
back
office
folks,
the
legal
team
that
had
to
help
us
figure
out
whether
or
not
and
how
we
could
spend
these
monies
effectively
for
the
public
and
the
clerk's
office,
with
their
grants,
administration
and
there's,
probably
others
as
well.
B
Mayor
just
quickly,
in
addition
to
what
other
council
members
have
said,
I
just
wanted
to
commend
the
staff
on
stepping
up
this.
You
know
covet
was
a
really
hard
thing
and
these
funds,
in
response
to
it,
were
a
huge
opportunity,
but
on
one
hand,
but
they
were
also
a
really
big
responsibility
and
I
think
all
of
you
stepped
up
in
a
way
that
is
commendable.
B
I
think
coming
out
of
it
we're
seeing
that
more
and
more
is
being
expected
of
city
and
city
staff,
and
so
I'm
glad
that
you
were
able
to
step
up.
I
wish
I
could
say
it's
over
it.
Probably
isn't
it's
probably
going
to
be
more
of
this,
but
with
more
of
it
comes
more
opportunities,
so
I'm
you
know,
I
I
commend
them.
I
Madam
mayor,
thank
you
I'll,
just
echo.
This
is
a
great
responsibility.
I
had
something
similar
about
10
years
ago
and
it
was
a
chore
and
also
a
lot
of
stress
because
you're
dealing
with
immediate
needs,
but
you're
also
trying
to
look
long-term
and
that's
a
huge
responsibility.
So
thank
you
to
you.
Thank
you
to
your
staff
and
there's
a
lot
of
things
that
the
federal
government
does,
and
sometimes
they
make
sense,
and
sometimes
they
don't
and
the
regulations
involved
are
also
really
cumbersome.
So
I
I
appreciate
I
have
empathy
in
this.
I
I
agree
with
the
mayor
that
this
is
a
really
once
in
a
lifetime
opportunity.
We
really
have
some
money
that
has
come
to
us
that
we
didn't
expect
my
concern
in
all
of
this,
and
without
going
in
a
deep
dive,
is
that
we
may
be
making
long-term
funding
commitments
with
short-term
money,
and
I
worry
about
that.
I
worry
about
what
that
will
do
to
taxpayers
long-term,
even
if
all
of
these
ideas
are
exceptional,
I
am
concerned
about
what
will
happen
long
term.
I
I
know
that
we're
going
to
get
deep
dives
on
this
later
and
particularly
as
part
of
the
budget,
but
it's
it's
hard
for
me
to
vote
yes
before,
seeing
that
big
picture
of
the
budget
and
then
also
looking
at
those
things
long
term.
So
I
wanted
you
to
know
where
I'm
coming
from
on
this.
It
really
is
a
fiscal
lens.
I
think,
there's
a
lot
of
great
ideas,
but
I'm
just
worried
about
long
term
what
this
might
mean
for
the
city.
I
H
Mayor,
thank
you.
Thank
you
chloe.
This
is
very
hopeful.
I
tend
to
believe
that,
like
the
pro
10
said,
I
think
this.
The
last
few
years
have
revealed
areas
where
we
could
improve
our
service
to
our
community
members,
and
I
don't
think
we
can
go
back.
I
think
we
have
to
move
forward
recognizing
that,
because
the
face
of
the
people
who
were
suffering
has
changed
a
bit.
There
are
people
who
have
been
suffering
for
a
very
long
time
and
that
number
grew
like
I've
shared
many
times
over
the
last
four
years.
H
I
was
one
of
those
people
who
thought
of
myself
as
middle
class
until
the
last
recession
showed
me
that
I
was
not
perhaps
having
an
education.
A
college
education
makes
some
of
us
feel
that
way,
but
when
you
can
have
a
state
job
and
still
be
hungry
and
still
be
struggling,
that's
not
middle
class,
and
so
I
think
this
is
what
we
have
to
do
moving
forward
is.
We
cannot
turn
away
from
the
needs
of
our
community.
H
E
Go
ahead,
thank
you.
Councilmember
willett's
comments
reminded
me
of
something
because
I
am
if
anyone
has
been
watching
these
ibc
meetings
for
the
past
five
years.
I
am
an
absolute
hawk
on
ongoing
expenditures
and
things
that
are
going
to
create
ongoing
commitments
for
city
council
and
for
the
city.
E
E
That's
not
creating
ongoing
commitments
for
the
city,
but
is
creating
putting
one-time
money
into
one-time
uses
so
that
we're
not
encumbering
future
taxpayers
and
I
think
100,
that's
what
this
is,
and
I
think
that,
when
steve
presents
we're
gonna
see
how
we're
even
saving
our
taxpayers
a
little
bit
more
by
allocating
these
resources.
So
I
think
it's
actually
really
exciting.
F
Any
other,
madam
mayor
council,
pro
tem
weddings
to
echo,
that
that
is
both
a
directive
from
the
council,
but
also
a
fundamental
sort
of
eligibility
requirement
of
the
arpa
dollars
that
these
are
one
time.
Capital
improvement
must
be
spent
uncumbered
and
spent
by
specific
dates
in
the
fairly
new
future,
and
so
that
was
really
kind
of
like
a
hat
that
we
wore
as
we
were
thinking
about
these
projects
and.
A
A
Other
elements
of
these
community
funds
that
will
go
direct
to
the
community
for
one-time
needs.
It
is
our
expectation,
as
the
council
president
has
said,
as
well,
that
they
grow
we'd
like
to
see
other
agencies
come
to
the
table
with
us
and
help
us
address
those
experiencing
homelessness
and
their
needs
for
forever
homes.
We'd
like
to
see
private
philanthropy
and
then
others
with
means
do
the
same
thing.
A
Investment
that
we
can
make,
and
so
it's
really
been
an
incredible
opportunity,
as
well
as
responsibility
to
develop
this
program
of
funding
with
an
eye
to
immediate
needs,
but
also
the
ability
for
us
to
look
back
10
15
20
years
from
now
and
know
that
we
helped
at
this
moment
in
time
make
investments
that
are
helping
our
kids
and
grandkids
with
the
the
needs
of
the
community.
At
that
point,.
C
Just
one
clarification,
though,
the
big
part
of
the
reason
that
we're
in
this
situation
is
that
madam
mayor's
first
budget
had
a
coveted
contingency
in
it.
The
first
direction
from
her
office
in
the
first
year
that
she
put
that
together
was
look
and
plan
for
and
think
hard
about
this
disastrous
event.
So
she
thanked
the
department
head.
She
thanked
the
council,
but
it
all
happened
because
madam
mayor's
leadership
and.
D
A
And
next
up
we
will
move
to
the
second
item
of
special
business
and
this
is
the
reason
for
decision
and
revised
conditions
of
approval.
So
I'm
the
findings,
document
related
to
cup,
2126
and
josh
go
ahead
and
start
and
then
we'll
see.
If
council
has
any
questions
or
things
they
want
to
weigh
in
on,
then
I've
got
a
couple
things
to
say.
J
J
We
have
distributed
the
memo
to
council
that
has
the
appeal
findings,
the
reason
statement
and
the
revised
conditions
of
approval
for
adoption.
Today
we
are
recommending
two
very
slight
changes
to
the
reason
statement
in
two
places
where
the
word
home
is
used,
we
would
recommend
inserting
shelter
to
reference
that
as
a
shelter
home.
So
in
the
first
paragraph
and
the
fourth
paragraph
of
the
reason
statement,
we
would
recommend
that
change
with
that.
If
council's
in
agreement,
we
would
recommend
adoption
of
the
findings
and
conditions
of
approval
today,
and
I
will
stand
for
any
questions.
B
All
of
the
things
that
we
wanted
to
add
as
conditions.
I
appreciate
the
addition
of
shelter
to
the
word
home
in
those
first
and
four
fourth,
paragraphs
of
the
reason
statement.
I
think
it
will
make
the
document
more
consistent
overall,
as
we
use
shelter
in
in
many
other
places,
and
it
wasn't
quite
clear
that
that
was
referring
to
the
same
thing.
So
I
appreciate
those
changes.
A
Right,
I
think
that's
it
josh
I'll
just
say
just
so:
council
and
the
public
are
where
the
hearings
that
we
had.
I
think
we
said
that
night
were
unprecedented
in
the
amount
of
time
spent.
Reviewing
the
record
the
amount
of
time
spent
asking
questions
and
getting
to
the
crux
of
what
planning
and
zoning
commission
said
we
needed
to
get
to,
and
I
just
want
to
make
it
clear
from
our
perspective
as
a
city
and
as
an
administrator
from
that
moment
forward.
A
We've
worked
with
our
team
here
to
ensure
that,
as
this
process
moves
forward,
the
shelter
home
moves
forward
that
our
city
is
ready
to
deliver
on
the
expectations
set
forth
in
these
conditions.
We
know
that
and
each
of
our
department
heads
that
was
part
of
that
hearing
is
here
with
us
tonight
and
we've
gathered
since
that
meeting
to
begin
discussing
how
and
we
provide
service
to
those
that
need
it.
E
G
Madam
mayor,
I
just
wanted
to
note
that
we've
got
the
dates
that
are
on
here.
It
doesn't
necessarily
describe
the
hours
the
lift,
the
work
that
every
single
person
staff,
council
members
planning
and
zoning
put
into
it.
It's
probably
the
only
thing
that
it
doesn't
truly
copy
is
how
much
work
went
in
there,
but
the
background
is
is
correct
or
the
attachments
are
correct.
The
appeal
findings
are
correct.
The
reason
statement
is
correct.
The
conditions
of
approval
are
all
basically
what
we
put
together
in
that.
G
So
with
that
huge
record,
I
do
think
that
this
you
know
succinctly
describes
the
reason
statement
there
so
certainly
going
to
be
in
support
of
this.
I
do
appreciate
the
change
of
the
word
home
to
shelter,
because
it's
not
a
home,
and
that
really
is
our
end
goal
here,
making
sure
that
we
are
putting
people
in
permanent
housing
solutions
and
that
this
is
really
a
step
to
get
them
there.
So
that
really
is
a
very
small
change
as
far
as
the
words
go.
B
B
H
H
I
don't
know
if
my
colleagues
have
received
comments
from
folks
with
strong
emotions
about
the
decision
that
we
made
not
unanimously,
but
that
has
been
what
I
have
shared
with
folks
is.
There
are
29
conditions,
I
believe
in
place
that
must
be
met
and
that
we
are
held
accountable
to
by
our
community
as
we
should
be.
D
A
Everybody
do
we
have
an
executive
session.
Okay,
we
do
not
have
an
executive
session
so
with
that
we
are
done
with
the
city
council
meeting,
but
but
we
are
not
adjourning.
Of
course
everybody
here
can
leave
if
you
need
to,
except
for
all
of
our
department,
heads
of
course,
and
we're
going
to
move
back
into
the
budget
conversation
and
with
that
we'll
pull
up
chiefly
you'll
head
to
the
diocese
one
more
time
to
now
after
having
covered
the
impact
the
last
year
and
the
look
ahead
for
23.
K
K
Part
of
that
challenge
comes
from
the
resources
inside
the
department
and,
as
our
hr
director
mentioned
earlier,
the
challenges
with
the
staff
in
hr.
We
recognize
with
the
substantial
onboarding
of
personnel
that
will
be
required
over
the
next
half
decade
that
their
resources,
the
resources
to
do
that
really
are
best
served
by
reaching
for
outside
assistance
and
professional
services
to
assist
us
in
that
recruitment
effort.
K
In
short,
a
facility
study,
but
the
reason
we're
referring
to
it
as
accessibility
is
we're
really
being
mindful
of
future
growth
and
the
community
as
well
as
accessibility.
We
don't
want
to
just
simply
build
facilities
so
that
we
have
physical
office
space
and
housing
for
officers,
but
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
designing
them
in
locations
and
with
a
design
that
invites
the
community
to
interact
that
serves
the
community.
Well,
that
reduces
response
times
and
keeps
us
connected
with
the
community.
K
In
fiscal
year
22
there
was
a
budget
to
provide
replacements
for
portable
radios,
the
kind
that
we
all
wear
there
is
a
need
to
do.
Radio
replacement
in
our
vehicles.
Part
of
it,
is
a
technological
requirement.
So
there
is
an
ask
for
that.
It
also
ensures
that
we
have
the
ability
to
encrypt
our
radio
channels
when
necessary,
for
our
police
vehicles
and,
obviously
because
they
operate
in
the
same
space
as
our
portable
radios.
K
We're
also
looking
for
enhancements
to
our
emergency
response
equipment
and
to
clarify
what
we
mean
by
that
specifically
we're
looking
at
adding,
what's
known
as
a
small
platform,
robot
and
scanner
to
our
explosive
ordnance,
disposal
team,
it's
an
unfortunate
technological
need
for
a
city
of
our
size.
Our
equipment
is
aging
out.
We
need
the
ability
to
send
a
remote
device
and
equipment
towards
a
suspected
device
without
having
to
jeopardize
our
trained
personnel
and
have
them
manually
go
down
and
examine
it.
K
We're
also
looking
at
acquiring,
what's
known
as
a
long-range
acoustical
device,
which
would
essentially
allow
us
allow
us
to
do
what
you
might
refer
to
as
loud
hail
in
emergency
situations.
So
imagine
the
need
for
us
to
help
fire
do
evacuations
during
a
brush
fire
at
that
urban
boundary
and
to
be
able
to
make
sure
that
people
were
hearing
inside
the
homes
if
they
were
maybe
away
from
their
phones
and
didn't
hear
a
phone
notification
or
the
ability
to
notify
or
hail
personnel
during
a
flood
or
some
other
type
of
emergency.
K
So
that
we're
having
clear
guidance,
clear
message,
query
leadership
as
necessary
and
that
we're
looking
at
right
sizing
the
department
in
that
area,
and
we
suspect
that
there
may
be
conversations
with
council
relating
span
of
control
in
the
future.
And
with
that
I
would
stand
for
any
questions
that
you
may
have.
H
Madame
yes,
thank
you.
Thank
you
chief,
so
I
know
you've
been
really
good
about
trying
to
reach
out
to
the
community
and
please
correct
me
if
I,
if
you've
shared
this
with
us
before
and
I've
forgotten,
have
we
have
we
done
a
survey
similar
to
what
I
asked
about
hr?
Have
we
done
a
survey
to
see
what
the
community
response
is
to
bpd
what
their
perception
is
of
our
police
department.
K
Madam
mayor
councilmember
sanchez,
part
of
that
I
mentioned
earlier
that
lieutenant
quack
and
bush
had
done
the
research
part
of
that
is
tied
directly
into
that
their
perception
of
the
department,
their
perception
of
procedural
justice
and
satisfaction
that
they
receive
from
the
department
or
absence
thereof,
to
gauge
that
we
have
not
launched
a
different
specific
study.
But
a
lot
of
that
information
is
captured
in
the
data
set
that
we
have
there.
K
Madam
mayor
council,
member
sanchez,
there
is
a
standard
procedure,
but,
as
I've
mentioned
before
we're
going
through
an
overhaul
of
all
of
our
policies,
we're
looking
specifically
at
on-body
video
and
bringing
that
more
into
alignment
will
be
an
industry
standard
or
a
national
best
practice
in
areas
where
we
may
not
be
at
that
level.
Now.
H
H
H
C
C
C
B
B
My
question
has
to
do
with,
given
all
the
growth
given
all
the
change,
given
the
migration
that
we're
seeing
to
places
like
idaho,
is
there
anything
on
your
radar
that
we
need
to
be
aware
of
that?
Might
change
the
things
that
we
might
need
to
be
looking
for
in
policing
change,
the
way
that
you're
doing
policing
anything
that
we
could
be
more
proactive
on,
then
we're
not
being
given
what
you
might
see
coming
based
on
all
that
growth
and
that
change
in
migration
patterns.
K
We
could
make
what
is
frankly
the
mistake
that
many
other
police
departments
do
in
many
other
cities
as
they
grow
and
not
continue
that
commitment
and
ask
patrol
resources
to
simply
take
that
workload
as
we
hit
that
that
tipping
point
where
we
start
to
see
exponential
demand
in
service
that
discretionary
time
they
need
to
be
able
to
engage
in
that
work,
would
diminish
and
ultimately,
in
most
cities,
when
you
look
at
the
historical
information
out
there,
those
are
the
critical
watershed
moments
where
perceived
trust
and
logistics.
The
department
begins
to
diminish.
K
I
I
All
right,
okay,
so
I
have.
I
have
two
questions.
One
is
about
calls
that
come
in
and
I've
had
this
same
conversation
with
fire
about
the
mental
health
calls
that
come
and
I
think
we're
in
a
crisis
in
this
country
when
it
comes
to
mental
health,
I'm
wondering
if
there's
anything
within
your
plan
that
can
make
sure
that
we're
allocating
the
right
kind
of
resources
to
the
right
need.
I
know
that
fire
deals
was
the
same
thing.
Can
you
help
educate
us
on
that?.
K
Madam
mayor
councilmember
willits,
I
think
part
of
it,
is
examining
the
types
of
calls
that
we're
receiving
and
whether
or
not
there
is
place
for
a
partnership
for
some
sort
of
alternative
response,
if
it
in
really
triaging
those
calls
as
they
come
in
to
the
right
resource.
So
part
of
that
part
of
that
has
to
be
the
partnership
that
we
have
with
ada
county.
That
runs
our
dispatch
in
moving
people.
If
police
response
or
fire
response
isn't
the
right
resource.
K
What
is
the
partnership
that
we
can
form
for
the
right
resource
and
how
can
we
connect
them
to
it?
But
we
also
have
to
recognize
that
many
people
that
are
in
need
of
mental
health
services
require
police
services
as
well
they're
in
continuing
to
develop
our
officers
so
that
they're,
aware
of
crisis
intervention,
training
best
practices
to
continue
to
develop
our
behavioral
health
response
team
for
those
non
sort
of
peak
moments
when
an
individual
may
need
assistance
and
intervening
at
other
opportunities
would
be
key
and
then
partnering
with
fire.
K
Where
there's
opportunity
for
us
to
look
at
a
call
that
may
come
in
that
we
suspect
or
frequently
has
a
tie
to
mental
health
related
issues,
but
is
drawing
both
of
our
resources.
Are
there
opportunities
for
us
to
partner
and
look
at
some
sort
of
alternative
response
model?
Even
a
police
and
fire
are
necessary.
I
I
hope
that
answers
your
question
for
you,
yeah.
I
K
Madam
mayor
councilmember
willett
at
this
time,
the
president
asked
is
for
what
we
refer
to
as
professional
staff
in
the
department.
There's
not
an
ask
for
an
increase
in
sworn
membership,
and
if
I
can
explain
that
with
a
little
bit
more
detail,
we
recognize
that
say.
A
community
support
specialist
is
easier
to
onboard
and
train
than
the
requirements
for
a
police
officer
bring
up
to
full
speed,
but
it
does
have
sort
of
a
pressure
valve
real,
immediate
effect
on
the
call
load
that
our
officers
are
affecting
the
discretionary
time
that
they
have.
K
We
also
recognize
similar
benefits
to
other
professional
staff
positions
throughout
the
department.
The
present
ask
is
for
professional
staff
so
that
we
can
onboard
quickly.
The
reason
we're
not
asking
at
this
time
for
additional
sworn
membership
is
because
of
the
vacancy
rate
that
we're
seeing
because
of
generational
retirement.
We
need
to
essentially
close
in
on
some
of
that
gap.
We
have
now
before
asking
for
more
the
analogy
I
used
as
I
was
going
over.
My
notes
with
my
wife
was.
K
H
Madame
thank
you
chief,
just
a
question
about
the
traffic
technology,
and
so
this
is
what
you
were
referring
to
right
about,
having
the
little
notepad
with
the
carbon
copy
for
the
tickets.
Is
that
correct-
and
I
think
we
chatted
about
this
a
couple
years
ago
and
my
question
was
with
this
traffic
technology
if
it
gets
updated
to
a
better
system,
is
there
a
possibility
of
being
able
to
collect
racial
and
ethnic
information
in
that
system?
I
think
it
wasn't
possible
before
because
it
wasn't
part
of
the
the
ticket
form.
K
Madam
mayor
councilmember
sanchez,
part
of
the
challenge
is
that
the
standardized
state
forms
that
would
be
the
summons
to
court.
Don't
capture
that
data,
we
would
have
to
implement
another
layer
in
our
system
to
be
able
to
capture
racial
ethnic
data
so
that
we
could
do
a
deep
dive
analysis
of
that
information.
L
Madam
mayor
council,
good
afternoon
I
told
chiefly
earlier,
I
was
so
appreciative
last
seven
years
of
doing
budget
presentations.
I've
always
gone
right
after
lunch,
and
so
I
was
appreciative
that
he
took
that
trophy
away
from
me,
but
I'm
not
going
to
take
the
trophy.
I
remember
mayor.
He
called
me
the
fastest
talking
director
last
year
about
this
time
and
I'm
not
going
to
give
that
trophy
up
yet
so,
and.
L
Thank
you
talking
about
recent
investments
and
impact
maintaining
services
station
construction.
I
want
to
first
start
with
station
six,
so
I'm
going
a
little
bit
backwards,
but
we
just
reopened
that
station,
and
I
just
want
to
thank
you,
council
for
your
investment
in
that
station.
I
went
toward
it.
L
The
construction
team
did
a
great
job,
much
thanks
to
to
steve
and
sean
and
his
team
for
partnering
with
that
us
on
that,
but
that
really
focused
a
lot
on
a
longevity
making
sure
that
station
is
now
around
for
a
very
long
time
to
that
remodel,
but
also
be
firefighter
health
and
safety.
One
of
the
things
that
we
added
to
this
station
that
we're
adding
to
our
future
station
builds
is
a
dedicated
turnout,
room,
meaning
those
turnouts
that
we
wear
after
fire.
They
go
in
a
dedicated
room.
L
They
have
their
own
climate
system.
What
we've
known
the
last
five
years
through
studies
is
even
after
washington's
off-gassing
carcinogens,
and
so
we
really
appreciate
that
investment,
because
that's
an
investment
into
our
firefighter
health
and
safety
station.
Six
very
happy
with
station
five
downtown
the
planning
and
the
design
is
complete.
We're
planning
on
demoing
and
then
starting
that
build
process.
Some
we're
very
excited
about
that
mayor.
L
You
alluded
to
in
your
state
of
the
city,
address
some
of
the
upgrades
we're
going
to
put
into
that
fire
station
looking
towards
the
future,
going
all
electric
and
so
we're
going
to
certainly
be
building
the
infrastructure
to
that
our
fire
engine
manufacturers
are
not
quite
there
yet
with
a
very
reliable
all-electric
vehicle,
but
we
know
that's
coming
and
it's
in
the
works
with
every
manufacturer
out
there.
So
we
know
that's
coming.
We
appreciate
that
investment
early,
it's
going
to
be
a
great
downtown
station.
L
I
am
happy
to
say
we
do
have
a
location
temporarily
over
the
next
12
months,
while
this
is
being
built
in
the
downtown,
we'll
be
housing
engine
5
at
12th
and
bannock,
which
is
kind
of
exciting.
The
truck
company
will
be
at
station
18
on
chinh
boulevard,
but
we're
still
going
to
have
great
coverage
downtown
and
providing
great
service
continually
to
the
downtown
core.
During
this
build
and
then
station
13
land
purchases
is
complete.
L
L
maintaining
service,
we
have
some
vehicle
replacements
and,
as
you
know,
our
apparatus
are
not
cheap,
and
so
we
appreciate
that
investment
make
sure
our
firefighters
are
safe
as
well
with
the
equipment
they
have.
We
did
have
a
hazmat
trailer
replacement.
We
we
added
a
new
motorcycle
at
a
station,
one
that's
for
foothills
rescue.
We
greatly
appreciate
that
that
was
heavily
used
and
then
two
additional
brush
trucks
and
those
two
additional
brush
trucks
were
cost
neutral
to
the
to
the
general
fund.
Those
were
from
revenues
we
gained
through
deployments
we
had
had.
In
the
past.
L
L
We're
excited
about
they're
going
now
through
their
next
phase
of
training,
which
is
that
field
training
time
with
a
captain
and
then
we'll
get
them
through
their
probationary
year,
so
very
excited
to
have
those
17
on
looking
forward.
We
have
really
two
focus
areas:
one
is
maintaining
service.
We
want
to
make
sure
we
are
maintaining
service
through
fy23.
L
L
It's
called
the
assistance
to
firefighters,
grant
we're
excited
and
we're
hopeful
that
that's
going
to
go
through,
but
if
not,
we've
worked
with
budget
to
make
sure
we
have
funding
available
to
get
those
life
safety
components
replaced
on
the
ems
training
side,
we're
asking
to
add
an
ems
training
captain,
and
that
is
really
to
meet
state
licensing
requirements.
We
have
one
training
captain
focused
on
ems
with
several
employees,
as
you
can
imagine,
and
so
trying
to
maintain
that
requirement
through
the
state
requires
people
to
do
on
the
public
education
duty
alignment.
L
We
have
had
a
captain
inspector
that,
for
the
last
several
years
has
been
doing
pub
ed.
This
was
a
previous
decision
made.
Quite
honestly,
our
inspections
now
are
falling
behind
because
of
the
growth
in
our
city
and
so
we're
pulling
that
individual
that
captain
back
into
inspections
and
what
we're
asking
for
is
a
civilian
position
to
manage
our
public
education
outreach
and
really
build
that
program.
We're
excited
about
that
and
then
our
wildland
annual
activity
working
with
budget.
L
We
have
never
had
a
budget
assigned
to
our
wildland
activity
before
all
we're
asking
for
is
to
assign
a
budget
and
then
that
stays
cost
neutral
throughout
the
year
as
we
deploy.
So
we
will
only
spend
what
we
deploy
and
then
get
reimbursed
for
and
then
enhancing
service
again
station.
13
really
excited
about
this.
I
know
that
the
citizens
in
that
northwest
corner
are
appreciative
of
the
service.
L
That
station
is
going
to
house
not
only
a
fire
engine,
but
we
plan
on
also
housing
a
brush
truck
in
that
station.
As
you
know,
the
foothills
and
that
response
there.
We
need
an
immediate
response:
we're
excited
to
house
not
only
a
fire
engine
but
a
brush
truck
in
that
station
and
then
looking
ahead
as
well
additional
firefighters
in
the
recruit
academy.
L
We
can
handle
21
firefighters
max
in
a
recruit
academy,
and
we
want
to
take
advantage
of
that
so
that
we're
not
putting
on
two
in
a
year,
that's
very
costly
and
time
consuming
and
very
labor
intensive.
So
we're
trying
to
maximize
that
recruit
academy
and
with
that
I'd
certainly
stand
for
any
questions.
H
H
I
just
wanted
to
also
commend
you
and
your
staff
for
working
to
increase
the
number
of
women
in
firefighting.
I
understand
we
have
a
ignite
boot
camp
later
this
month
for
women,
18
plus
and
then
in
july,
for
14
to
17
year
olds,
and
I
just
want
to
thank
casey
halmacht,
one
of
your
firefighters
who
has
really
taken
the
lead
on
that
it's.
H
It
really
touches
my
heart
that
one
of
the
young
women
who
participated
in
our
girl
scouts
fire
up
teen
program
back
in
2019
is
now
a
firefighter
in
nampa,
and
so
it's
it's
wonderful
to
to
see
the
immediate
payoff
relatively
immediate
payoff
for
those
investments.
So
just
want
to
thank
you
so
much
for
that.
L
B
L
B
One
of
my
questions
about
the
electrification
is
making
sure
that,
at
all
of
those
stations,
we
have
a
publicly
available
electric
charging
spot,
I'm
assuming
okay.
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
and
get
that
on.
The
record
also
note
that
at
fire
station
13
we
have
an
opportunity
to
create
a
future
place
for
vrt
buses
to
charge,
as
well
as
our
own
trucks.
L
Madam
mayor
president,
click
great
question,
as,
as
you
know,
as
the
board
of
access
we're
looking
forward
to
presenting
that
to
you
we're
working
through
it
right
now.
The
state
still
has
some
work
to
do
so.
We
got
the
legislation
passed
council.
President
clegs
are
alluding
to
gemt
ground
emergency
medical
transports,
a
federal,
medicaid
reimbursement
program
so
for
medicaid
transports
it's
pennies
on
the
dollar
as
far
as
getting
reimbursed.
This
is
a
federal
program
to
help
up
that
reimbursement
rate.
The
state
had
not
passed
legislation
until
last
year.
L
I
will
say
we
passed
it
on
the
first
try
and
it
was
almost
unanimous
in
both
both
chambers,
which
is
pretty
unique
last
year,
but
there's
still
some
work.
The
state
department
of
health
and
welfare
has
to
do
to
get
the
annexes
and
the
rules
set
up.
We
anticipate
that
to
be
done
the
next
couple
of
months.
Initially,
we
thought
the
80
county
system.
Our
access
system
was
going
to
get
about
6.7
million.
L
Roughly
it
sounds
like
it's
about
8.2
collectively
we
are
talking
about
what
to
bring
to
the
board
as
far
as
enhancements
to
the
system,
and
this
goes
councilwoman
willis
to
the
conversation
we
had
about
mental
health
and
the
increase
in
just
service
calls.
We
were
seen
in
fire
about
a
32
increase.
It's
the
largest
jump
in
our
call
volume.
Out
of
all
of
the
things
that
we
go
on,
how
do
we
as
a
system
hire
additional
resources
that
make
sense
to
go
out
and
handle
some
of
that?
L
Non-Emergence
call
volume
call
types,
and
we
can
do
that
with
some
of
this
gmt
funding,
so
we're
looking
at
it
as
a
system.
I
appreciate
the
cooperation
from
80
county
paramedics,
quite
honestly,
as
the
ground
transport
ambulance
service
they're
entitled
to
most
of
that
money,
but
they
have
chosen
to
say:
let's
do
it
as
a
system
and
be
better
as
a
whole,
so
we're
looking
forward
to
that.
We
haven't
yet
developed
the
details,
but
that'll
be
coming
to
that
board.
L
E
You,
madam
mayor,
thank
you
chief.
I
too
was
able
to
visit
the
remodeled
station
six
up
on
the
bench,
and
I
saw
the
chief
there
where
we
did
talk
about
publicly
available
charging
stations
because
of
my
story
about
having
to
stop
at
station
one
on
my
way
home
when
my
car
was
dying
and
have
them
pull
out
a
extension
cord
to
my
car
so
that
I
could
plug
it
in
it.
E
Just
would
have
been
so
handy
to
have
a
little
charging
station
out
there
like
the
discovery
center
has
and
like
we
have
out
at
the
library
on
cool,
and
you
stick.
So
I
think
that's
great
one
of
the
most
remarkable
things,
though,
and
I
think
this
is
a
testament
to
our
public
works
team
and
our
fire
team
is
that
station
six
has
such
I
mean
for
just
a
remodel.
It
has
such
a
humane
design.
That's
going
to
make
it
so
much
better
for
firefighters
to
work
and
live
there
for
two
days
of
their
week.
E
I
L
So
one
position
is
that
training
captain
for
the
ems
ems
training,
captain
that'll,
be
in
conjunction
with
our
other
full-time
ems
training
captain
to
provide
state
required
ems
training
to
our
firefighters
and
really
their
focus
is
on
our
basic
life
support,
firefighters,
the
advanced
life
support.
Firefighters
is
done
through
our
access
system,
but
this
is
for
our
emts,
which
are
the
vast
majority
of
our
department
members.
A
M
Madam
mayor
council
members,
thank
you
for
the
time
I
wanted
to
give
you
a
quick
overview,
our
fy
22
review
of
investments
and
then
we'll
move
into
fy23
and
what
we're
looking
to
invest
in
before
I
do
that.
I
just
wanted
to
provide
a
quick
overview
of
how
public
works
is
broken
out
from
a
fund
standpoint.
I
know
this
can
cause
confusion,
not
only
amongst
council
members
but
the
public,
so
we
do
have
some
services
within
public
works
that
are
funded
from
the
general
fund.
M
So
those
are
carved
out
and
funded
from
the
general
fund
and
then,
of
course,
we
have
our
four
major
enterprise
funds
that
we
that
we
own
and
operate
in
public
works
and
provide
the
service
to
citizens.
And
if
I
were
to
try
to
break
these
out
from
a
kind
of
an
annual
spend
about
10
of
what
you
see
on
the
left
is
what
we
spend
in
the
general
fund
and
about
90
of
the
public
works
budget
on
an
annual
basis
goes
to
the
enterprise
funds.
Just
to
give
you
a
sense
for
how
that
breaks
out.
M
So
I'll
start
with
our
public
works
general
fund
investments
from
last
year
so
recently
or
this
year.
Rather
recent
investments
in
impact
we've
been
able
to
convert.
Thank
you
to
all
for
the
to
you
all
for
the
investment
of
the
100
percent
city
street
lights
are
now
led,
so
that's
2200
street
lights
that
were
converted
over
the
past
year.
M
It's
a
huge
effort
and
thanks
to
staff
for
doing
such
a
wonderful
job,
we've
added
eight
new,
eb
sedans
and
five,
all
electric
trash
trucks
to
the
fleets,
fleet
and
I'll
talk
about
in
total
what
the
carbon
offsets
are
associated.
With
all
of
these
initiatives,
we
were
able
to
get
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
last
year
for
energy
efficiency,
efficiency
improvements
for
vulnerable
populations,
so
we
were
able
to
retrofit
32
low-income
homes
that
were
weatherized
in
partnership
with
eleda
and
that's
going
to
result
about
300
per
year
per
home
for
savings
for
those
low-income
recipients.
M
We
were
able
to
convert
three
city
buildings
to
all
electric
we're
actually
still
working
through
those.
You
can
see
those
buildings
listed
there
and
then
you
all
provided
some
funding
to
the
geothermal
fund.
I
know
it's
an
enterprise
fund,
but
you
chose
to
provide
some
additional
funding
for
some
projects.
M
To
put
that,
in
perspective,
the
city
government,
we
emit
about
35
000
to
40
000
metric
tons
a
year
so
over
the
next
10
years,
with
these
investments
we'll
be
able
to
reduce
that
number
by
about
10
000
metric
tons
tons
per
year
for
city
government.
So
while
these
are
small
incremental
gains,
they
all
add
up
and
that's
part
of
the
approach
that
we're
going
to
need
to
getting
our
arms
around
reducing
our
emissions.
E
Before
you
move
on
from
this
steve-
and
it
came
up
when
you
were
talking
about
the
city
street
lights,
it
kind
of
popped
into
my
mind.
It
would
be
interesting
to
know-
and
you
might
be
measuring
this-
what
the
savings
are
on
maintenance
and
energy
costs
with
those
conversions.
Also,
I'm
not
sure.
Where
else
that
might
I
mean
it
would
probably
also
apply
to
electric
vehicles
and
geothermal,
so
it
would
be
interesting
to
know
like
this
is
a
great
investment
in
carbon
for
sure.
M
That's
one
of
the
excitement,
madam
mayor
council,
pro
tem,
that's
one
of
the
exciting
things
about
these
investments
is
the
are
the
financials
associated
with
climate.
Work
are
starting
to
kind
of
they're
going
in
our
favor
now
10
years
ago.
These
things
would
have
been
very
expensive
to
do
now,
they're
starting
to
become
more
cost
effective.
M
So,
in
the
case
of
the
led
street
lights,
that's
going
to
lead
to
about
just
a
financial
savings
of
60
000
a
year
on
our
energy
bill,
so
the
the
payback
period
is
going
to
be
within
about
a
15-year
window,
so
those
are
becoming
just
financially
smart
things
to
do
in
addition
to
better
for
the
environment
and
climate
action.
So
great.
M
M
While
I
talk
about
incremental
gains
being
important,
there
are
some
big
steps
that
we
want
to
take,
and
so
what
you
see
on
this
side
are
some
of
those
big
steps
and
those
first
three
boxes
actually
are
all
opera
funding.
I'll
spend
a
little
bit
of
time,
because
I
know
that
was
a
topic
that
came
up
earlier.
M
So
the
artwork
for
clean
energy
is
where
we
want
to
spend
money
working
towards
a
green
tariff
with
idaho
power,
and
our
hope
is
that
we're
able
to
negotiate
with
idaho
power
on
a
fixed
cost
for
that
green
energy,
so
that
over
time
in
the
initial
years,
we'll
be
paying
a
little
bit
of
a
premium.
But
at
some
point,
it'll
turn
over
where
we'll
actually
be
saving
money
on
the
back
end
years
of
the
contract.
So
again,
a
one-time
investment
that
leads
to
long-term
savings
for
operations.
M
We
have
plans
to
electrify
up
to
seven
additional
buildings
and
we're
going
through
a
list
and
prioritizing
those
additional
buildings
based
on
things
like
carbon
offset
per
dollar
spent
are,
is
the
building
needing
a
replacement
of
an
old
aging
natural
gas
system
that
just
makes
sense
to
convert
it
at
that
point
to
all
electric.
So
we'll
be
back
in
front
of
you
with
a
list
of
the
projects
that
we're
going
to
propose
and
how
we
prioritize
those
projects.
M
The
one
water
approach
is
going
to
be
the
bulk
of
the
arpa
money
that
we're
looking
to
invest.
This
is
associated
with
really
taking
a
close
look
at
diversifying
our
water
supply,
so
you
may
have
heard
about
certain
projects
being
proposed
on
the
lower
boise
river.
For
example,
there's
a
couple
of
storage
projects
that
are
being
proposed.
Well
we're
going
to
need
some
funding
to
to
buy
or
get
access
to
the
water
rights
associated
with
those
storage
projects.
M
We
potentially
could
lease
some
of
those
water
rights
to
other
users
and
create
a
revenue
stream.
So
all
those
are
on
the
table
and
we'll
be
back
in
front
of
you
with
some
thoughts
on
how
best
to
do
that
and
then,
last
but
not
least,
for
23.
We
are
going
to
consolidate
our
fso
services
for
library
and
parks,
they'll
be
coming
over
to
public
works.
That
was
an
initiative
from
our
priority-based
budgeting
process.
Eric
and
chloe
came
up
with
that
that
approach
we
worked
it
and
we'll
be
able
to
move
forward
with
that
for
fy23.
M
M
Good
news
came
recently,
and
I
think
I
shared
this
with
council.
We
initially
thought
we
were
going
to
get
272
million
dollars
from
the
wifi
program.
We've
been
working
with
epa
and
they
are
going
to
give
us
access
to
additional
funding.
So
that's
going
to
be
up
upwards
of
close
to
400
million
dollars
through
our
wifi.
Through
the
wifi
program
we
completed
the
lander
street
phase,
one
upgrade
you
can
see
the
picture
there
on
the
left.
That's
our
new
hedgehead
works
building
that
will
be
up
and
running,
hopefully
knock
on
wood.
M
This
september
august
september
time
frame,
that's
a
huge
accomplishment
for
the
staff
so
that
phase
one
project
atlantis
street
included
the
headworks.
You
see
there
also
included
a
new
ultraviolet
disinfection
facility
and
then
also
some
site
improvements
that
included
a
new
entrance
off
of
veterans
memorial
parkway.
So
we
could
take
the
construction
traffic
off
of
lander
street
and
away
from
the
neighborhood.
That
was
something
that
was
a
big
win
and
they
were
really
excited
about
I'll.
Tell
that's
a
65.5
million
budget,
we're
going
to
come
in
a
little
under
budget
and
on
schedule.
M
We're
really
excited
about
that.
That's
a
credit
to
the
staff.
They
just
did
an
amazing
job,
and
then
we
also
initiated
our
recycled
water
program
this
year.
That
was
something
that
you
gave
us
direction
under
the
utility
plan
to
pursue
a
recycled
water
program.
We've
initiated
some
of
the
initial
studies
for
the
recycled
water
program.
We're
setting
up
a
pilot
test
of
emerging
technologies,
we're
working
with
micron.
M
M
Those
numbers
do
not
add
up
to
83
247,
just
a
heads
up
if
you're
doing
the
math.
I
left
out
a
couple
of
smaller
projects
that
wouldn't
been
on
the
slide,
but
these
are
the
major
projects
that
we're
going
to
be
pursuing
the
land
of
street
phase
2
and
then
we're
doing
some
pretty
big
work
out
at
west
boise
we're
going
to
continue
working
on
the
recycled
water
program.
M
A
lot
of
policy
discussion
we'll
be
bringing
back
to
council
council
as
well
as
some
of
the
results
of
the
emerging
constituent
studies
we'll
be
doing
pipeline
replacement
across
the
city.
We've
got
some
enhanced
river
investment
that
we'll
be
providing
updates
to
you
all
on
and
then
the
watershed
exhibits
update,
moving
on
to
our
solid
waste
program.
So
that's
our
recycling,
compost
and
trash
some
recent
investments
in
impact.
So
we
were
able
to
expand
the
compost
facility,
boiseians
love
their
compost,
and
so
we
needed
to
expand
the
program.
M
We've
got
about
a
95
participation
rate,
which
is
unheard
of
in
other
cities,
so
we
had
to
expand
the
facility
good
thing.
We're
excited
to
do
that.
We
had
a
pilot
test
of
some
emerging
plastic
reuse
technology.
You
can
see
the
picture
there
is
at
manitou
park
thanks
to
doug
and
his
team
for
partnering
with
us
on
a
bench
that
is
made
of
it's
called
by
fusion
by
block.
So
it's
our
orange
energy
bag,
that's
taken
a
company
is
now
compressing
them
into
these
blocks
that
can
be
used
for
construction.
M
M
We
will
have
the
the
fifth
or
fourth
and
fifth
of
all
electric
trash
trucks
by
the
end
of
fy22,
and
then
we
did
complete
a
waste
audit
to
inform
our
strategic
plan.
We
want
to
make
sure
public
works.
We
like
our
data.
We
want
to
get
some
data
sets
on
current
programs
and
how
they're
performing
so
that'll
feed
into
our
next
strategic
plan
in
fy
23,
which
you
see
there
as
one
of
our
our
projects
and
then
we're
also
going
to
ask
for
a
three
percent
rate
increase
to
cover
increasing
costs.
M
M
And
then,
last
but
not
least,
our
two
smallest
funds,
the
geothermal
and
irrigation
funds.
This
past
year,
we've
excited
to
we've
got
five
new
buildings
that
we're
going
to
add
to
the
system.
We
did
complete
the
geothermal
design,
sprint
that
was
working
with
kyle
patterson
in
the
mayor's
office,
a
really
interesting
process.
We
had
representation
from
across
the
city,
we'll
be
coming
back
to
you.
With
the
results
of
the
design
sprint,
we
were
trying
to
figure
out
how
how
best
to
innovate
within
the
geothermal
system
and
add
customers.
M
What
are
some
of
the
key
issues
that
we
need
to
be
thinking
moving
forward,
and
then
we
had
some
system
replacement
projects
you'll
see
down
on
bannock,
that's
about
to
kick
off.
That's
a
major
replacement
project
between.
I
think
it's
tenth,
ninth
and
tenth
on
bannock
that'll
be
a
big
project.
That's
going
to
happen
in
the
next
probably
month
and
a
half
and
then
moving
forward.
M
We
are
applying
for
additional
federal
funding
for
the
geothermal
system,
we're
hearing
about
some
doe
grants
that
are
out
there
that
we
would
really
like
to
have
access
to.
In
fact,
I
just
got
an
email
from
from
steve
and
the
team
there's
a
new
program
from
dewey
we're
trying
to
get
get
smart
on
it
and
figure
out
if
it's
something
we
want
to
apply
for.
M
M
So
the
result
is
that
a
lot
of
homes
are
are
using
drinking
water
for
irrigation
purposes,
not
our
best
day.
So
we're
looking
at
potentially
piloting
a
study
to
look
at
what
it
would
take
to
improve
a
specific
irrigation
system
and
get
those
folks
back
on
surface
water
for
irrigation
as
opposed
to
drinking
water.
We'll
keep
you
posted
on
that
the
concepts
we're
still
working
through,
but
we
think
it's
an
interesting
opportunity
not
only
for
those
residents,
but
we
have
a
park.
M
H
Madam
mayor,
thank
you,
madam
mayor.
Thank
you
steve.
I
have
a
question
about
the
the
the
folks
who
were
helped
the
32,
low-income
homes
that
were
weatherized.
That's
wonderful.
By
the
way
do
we
do.
We
know
what
the
capacity
is.
What
is
the
goal?
What's
the
number
of
folks
that
we
would
that
we
are
able
to
reach
and
would
like
to
reach
through
that
program.
M
Madam
mayor
council,
member
thanks
for
the
question,
there's
a
huge
backlog
for
folks
that
that
would
like
to
get
their
home
weatherized
it's
a
program
through
later.
I
know,
power
also
plays
a
role
we
were
able
to
invest.
I
think
I
think
it
was
100
000
this
past
year
to
get
those
32
homes
weatherized,
but
the
backlog
is
significant.
M
H
Great
and
just
a
quick
follow-up,
madam
mayor,
you
mentioned
also
that
there
are
plans
to
fix
the
pipes,
and
I'm
wondering
I
know
that
there
there's
been
a
particular
part
of
boise.
I
think
it's
been
up
on
the
on
the
bench
that
have
complained
about
the
brown
water
is.
Is
that
them
are?
We
are
they
on
the
list.
M
Madam
mayor
council
member,
that's
the
suez
now
viola
drinking
water
system
and
we've
been
working
with
yoli
to
try
to
get
those
repairs
done,
it's
our
understanding.
They
have
those
budgeted
for
and
are
starting
to
work
that
it's
taken
a
little
bit
of
time,
but
we're,
I
think,
we're
finally
there.
So
I
can
give
you
an
update
on
that
I'll
talk
to
staff
and
see
what
we've
heard
on
the
latest.
We
give
you
an
update
on
this.
That.
C
Madame
steve,
I
wasn't
able
to
attend
the
last
two
public
course
commission
meetings,
but
I
did
watch
him
and
I
watched
the
commission
spend
hours
chewing
through
all
of
this
information
that
you've
presented
really
condensed
form
here.
So
I
just
wanted
to
thank
that
commission
and
your
team,
for
I
mean
people
there's
so
much
work
that
that
commission
does
and
so
much
time
and
energy
that
went
into
this
great
presentation.
Steve
just
gave
so
I
just
wanted
to
give
a
big.
Thank
you.
C
C
B
B
Thank
you
question
about
the
three
through
seven
plastics,
the
energy
bags.
I
know
we're
continuing
to
do
research
in
the
meantime,
we're
continuing
to
allow
the
cement
makers
to
use
it
as
fuel.
Is
that
correct?
That's
correct,
okay,
which
you
know
every
time
I
go
somewhere
else
and
I
have
to
throw
those
away
it
just
like
breaks
my
heart
somehow,
so
you
know
it
may
not
be
the
best,
but
thank
you
for
continuing
to
figure
out
how
to
make
that
work
with
the
irrigation
systems
and
and
the
pilot
program.
B
I'm
happy
to
hear
that
there
are,
I
think,
continue
to
be
a
number
of
neighborhoods
up
on
the
bench
that
are
paying
irrigation
fees
that
haven't
had
access
to
that
water
for
years
and
years,
and
it
seems
like
if
we're
going
to
do
a
pilot
that
would
be
the
place
they're.
The
you
know,
50
to
70
year
old
subdivisions
that
were
originally
built
on
irrigation.
The
irrigation
went
away
and
or
it's
it's
under
used,
and
I
think
the
water
still
goes
under
almost
all
of
those
neighborhoods
somewhere.
B
G
M
Let
me
know
yeah,
madam
mayor
council
president,
thank
you
for
that
and
we
haven't
necessarily
landed
on
a
specific
lateral
system
yet,
but
we'll
I'd
love
to
pick
your
brain,
because
these
these
these
systems
are
historical
and
they're,
they're
they're,
pretty
challenging
to
try
to
identify
and
and
try
to
figure
out
what
are
the
best
fixes.
So.
N
Good
afternoon,
madam
mayor
members
of
the
city
council,
I'm
going
to
stop
start
by
framing
my
conversation
about
the
airport
budget
and
our
investments
this
last
year
and
our
plans
for
next
year
by
talking
about
growth-
and
I
know
that
we've
talked
about
growth
as
a
city
and
as
a
council
many
times,
and
I
think
what's
unique.
A
little
bit
about
the
airport
is
that
it's
not
just
the
city
of
boise
growth,
it's
a
regional
asset
and
so
as
the
entire
treasure
valley
region
has
seen
considerable
growth.
N
We
have
seen
that
reflected
in
our
numbers,
perhaps
more
keenly
than
any
other
city
department.
So
you
can
see
in
2019
we
had
over
2
million
passengers
using
the
boise
airport.
It
was
a
record
year
for
us.
Obviously,
20
and
21
were
not
as
robust
due
to
the
pandemic,
but
we
are
seeing
passenger
travel
continuing
to
rebound
and
we
have
a
high
a
low
and
a
medium
forecast
for
passenger
employments.
We
are
expecting
that
passenger
travel
will
continue
to
grow
in
2022
and
we
have
seen
that
trying
to
continue.
N
I
think
it's
interesting
to
note
that
pre-coveted,
our
growth
rate
was
4.2
percent
and
the
treasure
valley
and
boise
have
grown
seven.
Seventeen
percent
and
six
point
five
percent
in
the
last
five
years.
But
when
you
look
at
the
last
two
years,
that's
jumped
to
seven
point:
eight
percent
in
a
two-year
time
frame.
N
And
so
the
airport
is
an
enterprise
fund,
meaning
we
generate
all
of
our
own
revenues
and
pay
for
all
of
our
own
expenses
and
that's
what
the
slide
is
really
conveying.
One
of
the
key
measurements
that
we
use
to
determine
how
we
are
doing
from
a
fiscal
perspective
is
how
much
we
charge
the
airlines
per
and
plane
passenger.
So
that's.
Every
passenger
who
gets
on
an
airplane
and
in
boise
most
of
our
passengers
will
either
end
or
start
their
trip
here.
N
And
if
you've
been
out
to
the
airport,
you
know
that
we
have
been
busy
in
the
last
few
years.
Things
have
not
stopped.
These
are
some
of
the
major
projects
that
we
have
undertaken
this
year.
Many
of
them
are
multi-year
projects.
We
have
a
public
parking
garage
which
is
currently
under
construction
that
will
be
complete
by
next
summer,
probably
late
july,
early
august
of
23.,
our
employee
parking
garage,
which
is
construction,
is
happening
simultaneously.
N
N
Taxiway
sierra
is
the
taxiway
that
leads
over
to
the
skywest
maintenance,
hangar
and
the
new
cargo
apron,
we're
expanding
that
and
then
we're
also
providing
a
cargo
aircraft
parking
apron
on
the
south
side
of
the
airfield
and
then
the
last
item
is
a
low
emissions
ground
support
equipment
on
the
west
cargo
area.
That
is
actually
part
of
a
grant
program
known
as
the
voluntary
airport
low
emissions
program
and
that's
designed
to
reduce
emissions
and
improve
air
quality.
N
You've
talked
a
fair
amount
about
federal
grant
funding.
The
airport
actually
received
three
different
buckets
of
federal
grants.
If
you
add
those
together,
it
comes
under
just
under
43
million
dollars.
That's
the
corona
response
relief
and
supplemental
appropriations
act.
That's
we
call
it
carissa
the
coveted
aid
relief
and
economic
security
act.
That's
the
cares
act,
the
american
rescue
plan
act
and
then
the
last
one
is
the
infrastructure
act.
N
N
This
for
2023,
our
probably
our
largest
project,
is
our
car
rental
parking
garage
phase,
one
construction
and
design
at
64
million
you've
seen
this
before,
but
because
of
the
way
we
do
our
budgeting,
we
can't
just
carry
that
forward,
so
that
was
a
project
that
we
postponed
construction
on
during
covid.
It
wasn't
the
right
time
to
do
it,
so
that's
moving
forward
the
other
one
that
I'll
call
out
is
our
concourse
a
apron,
so
that
will
allow
us
to
build
additional
aircraft
parking
apron
in
space
that
will
be
part
of
our
future
terminal.
N
Concourse
expansion,
that's
new
new
pavement
construction,
the
other
ones,
the
taxiway
delta
and
alpha
3
relocation,
the
whiskey
extension
and
then
the
runway.
Improvements
are
all
modifications
to
existing
pavement.
That's
on
the
airfield
and
we're
going
to
fund
these
projects
using
a
variety
of
income
sources.
The
grant
funding
will
be
used
primarily
for
airfield
improvements.
That's
21
million
dollars,
the
passenger
facility
charge
or
pfc
funding.
That's
the
fee
that
passengers
pay
on
their
airline
ticket.
Again
it
goes
back
into
the
infrastructure
that
will
be
used
primarily
to
pay
for
the
concourse,
a
apron.
N
E
Thank
you
so
much.
I
really
it.
I
appreciate,
because
we
had
to
hit
the
you
had
to
hit
the
brakes
so
dramatically
at
the
beginning
of
covid
on
all
of
these
projects
that
were
like,
you
know,
basically
queued
up
and
ready
to
go
it's
nice
to
see
that
some
of
those
are
finally
moving
again.
I'm
sure
you
feel
a
sense
of
relief
there
too.
N
That's
information
that
I'm
happy
to
share.
If
anything,
it's
only
improved
our
position,
because
our
peer
group
has
changed
most
of
the
medium
hubs
their
fee
and
their
cost
per
in
plane
passenger
is
actually
higher
than
what
we
would
see
at
the
small
hub
airport,
and
so
I'm
happy
to
get
some
very
detailed
information
to
council.
I
believe
the
small
hub
range
is
in
the
seven
dollar
range
on
average
and
the
medium
hub
airport
range
cost
per
airplane.
N
Passenger
is
in
the
eight
dollar
range
per
in
plane,
passenger
and
that's
the
average,
and
we
are
at
three
dollars
and
change
today.
So
even
if
we
bring
our
fees
up
to
five
six
seven
dollars
per
in
plane
passenger,
which
is
our
expectation
moving
forward
that
we'll
need
to
do
to
make
these
improvements
we
will
still
be
around
the
average,
is
our
expectation.
A
You
well
in
the
next
part
of
our
agenda.
You
see.
Courtney
washburn
coming
back
up
is
an
opportunity
just
to
summarize
what
we've
been
through,
but
also
to
make
sure
that
courtney
and
team
have
captured
the
information
for
follow-up
and
and
the
kind
of
interest
that
counts.
I'm
seeing
it's
the
end
of
the
day.
For
me,
I've
lost
my
words.
You
go
ahead,
madam
mayor.
I
can.
O
Go
ahead,
madam
mayor
members
of
council.
In
summary,
the
staff
is
excited
about
the
opportunity
to
bring
you
a
proposed
budget
that
we
view
as
fiscally
responsible
values
driven
that
responds
to
the
economic
conditions
in
our
community
need,
as
you've
heard
a
lot
about
today,
focus
on
the
strategic
use
of
one-time
federal
funding
to
create
transformational
change.
And,
lastly,
we
propose
to
make
investments
to
meet
today's
needs
and
keep
the
city
well
positioned
in
the
future,
and
during
this
discussion
I
have
captured
all
of
your
questions
and
desires
for
more
information.
O
O
B
Courtney,
I
I
think
I'll
look
back
through
my
notes,
but
I
think
you
got
the
ones
that
I
had.
One
thing
that
I
thought
of
about
halfway
through-
and
I
thought
I
would
save
it
for
now-
is
that
it
would
be
valuable.
I
think,
now
more
than
ever
to
understand
the
various
grant
opportunities
that
are
out
there
and
the
ones
that
we
might
think
about
taking
advantage
of
in
different
ways
and
at
different
times,
so
that
we
can
do
that
strategically.
B
B
For
that
kind
of
thing,
I
think,
in
addition,
there's
other
money
as
a
result
of
some
of
the
continuing
coveted
funding
and
and
other
funding
such
as
that
that's
that's
more
available
to
local
governments
than
has
been
in
the
past.
So
some
of
these
needs
that
that
we're
already
planning
to
fund
you
know
there
might
be
opportunities
for,
but
there
might
be
opportunities
do
things
that
we're
thinking
we
can't
do
if.
M
B
Could
find
the
funds
for
them,
so
I
know
that
we've,
I
think,
contracted
with
with
someone
to
help
us
on
grant
writing.
I
wonder
if
we
could
use
a
small
portion
of
that
contract
to
develop
a
list
of
the
various
grant
opportunities
that
we
might
consider
going
after
and
after
budget
is
over,
maybe
go
through
those
and
see
which
ones
seem
worth
pursuing.
O
C
C
Whether
the
airport
and
the
city
attorney's
office
would
be
better
served
by
a
dedicated
legal
counsel
who
is
in
the
airport
housed
in
that
team
and
not
the
city
attorney's
office.
I
don't
know,
I
just
keep
seeing
the
turnover
there
and
the
difficulties
that
people
have,
and
so
whether
the
legal
services
at
the
airport
needs
would
be
better
served
with
a
different
structure
than
what
we
have
now
might
be
something
to
think
about
in
this
budget.
K
A
You
have
anything
else
all
right.
Well,
I
think
that
that's
a
wrap,
so
I
want
to
thank
everybody
for
the
conversation
today,
thank
all
of
our
team
members
who
were
here
and
those
that
tuned
in
from
their
desks.
But
in
particular
I
want
to
thank
the
budget
team
for
getting
us
to
this
point.
Of
course,
I'm
looking
at
eric,
so
I'm
going
to
start
with
eric
bemoria,
but
christine
miller,
who
worked
closely
with
eric
and
all
of
our
department
heads
on
this,
I'm
travis
black
mike
schreck.
A
I
see
back
there,
jackie
barrett,
lisa,
owens,
jeff
stevenson
and
justin
erickson,
and
this
is
the
team
of
folks
that
you
know
worked
together
and
worked
with
each
department
to
do
all
the
little
things
that
I
can't
even
imagine
doing
with
all
these
systems
that
we
have
to
make
it
possible
to
ensure
that
funds
are
accounted
for.
Programs
are
developed
and
proposed
to
be
funded,
and
that,
then,
importantly,
and
that
we
and
the
public
can
take
it
in
this
fashion
and
get
to
work
with
it.
