B
To
the
November
3rd
meeting
November
3rd
2022
meeting
of
the
Boulder
City
Council,
it's
great
to
have
you
here:
I've
got
a
couple
announcements
to
get
us
started.
The
first
announcement
is
that
we
are
very
hybrid
tonight,
so
we've
got
council
members
in
person
staff
members
in
person.
We
have
members
of
the
public
here
in
person
great
to
have
you
here.
We've
got
members
of
the
public,
remote
and
council
members,
remote,
so
Rachel
friend
and
Lauren
Focus
are
both
attending
remotely.
B
So
please
have
patience
with
us
as
we
negotiate
all
kinds
of
hybrid
nests
this
evening,
and
next
announcement
is
about
covid-19
vaccinations.
So
for
testing
information
and
provider
locations
for
free
covid-19
testing.
You
should
go
to
boco.org
covid
testing
and
the

for
that
is
2445
stazio
Drive
Boulder
seven
days
a
week,
8
A.M
to
6
p.m,
and
for
vaccine
information
provider
locations
you
can
go
to
boco.org,
coveted
vaccine
all
right.
Let's
do
a
call
to
order
and
a
roll
call.
Please
Elisha.
B
E
F
B
Great,
thank
you
and
then
I'll
ask
for
a
motion
to
amend
the
agenda.
We've
got
a
couple
changes.
One
is
to
remove
the
section
on
item
3G
for
amending
Council
procedure,
section
16,
rules
of
decorum.
This
is
at
the
request
of
City
attorney,
Teresa,
Tate
and
she's.
Looking
at
making
some
additional
adjustments
and
bringing
it
back
at
a
future
meeting
to
have
that
right.
H
B
Motion
in
a
second,
this
would
be
a
show
of
hands.
So
all
in
favor
there
we
go
everybody
in
person
and
virtual
raises
their
hands,
so
the
agenda
is
duly
amended
great.
We
now
have
a
couple
of
declarations.
The
first
one
is
a
world
day
of
remembrance
declaration
to
be
presented
by
council
member
Yates.
H
Thanks
yeah
come
on
up
here,
oh
well,
this
is
powerful.
Commando
Trini
folks,
I'm
I'm
joined
up
here
by
Trini
Wilton
who's,
a
member
of
the
transportation
Advisory
Board
and
I'll
do
a
little
bit
more
of
an
introduction
of
training
in
just
a
second
we're
here
to
read
a
declaration
which
I'm
trying
to
grab
here.
Sorry
and
then
we'll
talk
a
little
bit
about
it.
But
let
me
read
the
Declaration
first.
H
Traffic
violence
killed
more
than
42
915
people
in
the
United
States
in
2021,
according
to
the
national
highway
traffic
safety
administration
and
according
to
the
National
Road
Safety
Foundation.
Here
in
Colorado,
there
were
636
traffic
deaths
reported
Statewide
in
2021,
including
92
pedestrian
deaths,
which
was
up
21
from
the
previous
year
in
the
city
of
Boulder,
a
vision,
zero
City,
there's
been
one
traffic
death
in
2022..
H
There
have
been
13
traffic
deaths
throughout
Boulder
County
this
year.
Even
one
death
is
too
many
as
we
strive
to
eliminate
traffic
deaths
and
severe
injuries.
We
recognize
that
Boulder's
residents
are
responsive
to
public
education
measures
and
we
can
take
personal
steps
to
increase
safety
on
our
roads.
H
For
all,
we
can
prevent
the
tragedy
of
traffic
Violence
by
taking
proactive
approaches
that
prioritize
Traffic
Safety
as
a
public
safety
health
issue,
the
2022
World
day
of
remembrance
theme,
Safe
Streets,
save
lives
effectively
serves
remind
us
all
to
increase
safety
measures,
and
so
we,
the
city
council
of
the
city
of
Boulder,
declare
November
20
as
world
day
of
remembrance
for
road
traffic
victims,
and
we
encourage
all
members
of
the
community
to
participate
in
the
activities
related
to
this
day
now.
Trini's
up
here
for
a
whole
lot
of
reasons.
H
First
of
all,
Trini
is
a
member
of
our
transportation
Advisory
board.
Our
news,
member
of
tab
and
Trini
and
I
are
both
road
traffic
victims.
Trees
incident
was
on
May,
8,
2018.
H
H
Community
is
not
going
to
tell
us
a
little
bit
about.
It
could
be
me
and
an
important
event
coming
up
in
a
couple
of
weeks.
So
with
that
training
it
turned
over
to
you.
Oh.
I
Thank
you
Bob
and
thank
you
to
everybody
here
at
city
council
and
to
DK
and
to
everybody
in
the
transportation
and
mobility
department
that
made
this
possible
I'm.
Very,
very
grateful,
and,
yes,
like
you,
said,
I
found
that
it
could
be
me
to
try
to
avoid
from
hap
what
happened
to
me
and
to
you
to
others
and
yeah.
We're
gonna
have
a
rally
on
November
19th.
I
We
moved
it
a
day
before
because
well,
the
whole
week
is
actually
the
world
they
have
the
world
week
of
remembrance,
but
on
the
19th
we
will
be
meeting
in
front
of
the
courthouse
and
we
will
walk
toward
the
band
show.
The
banjo
will
be
illuminated
with
the
color
yellow
to
solo,
to
exemplify
the
solidarity
and
the
unification
of
our
city,
and
you
know
with
our
members
that
have
been
lost
in
all
the
family
members
that
will
be
there
as
well.
I
So
thank
you
so
much
and
anybody
that
wants
to
continue
to
support
this
event.
Please
look
up
our
website,
which
is
it
could
be
me.org,
and
we
have
facilitated
lots
of
materials
to
to
make
this
possible
so
and
please
come
to
the
event.
It's
at
5
pm,
so
thank
you,
I'm
sorry,.
E
E
E
In
response
to
a
survey
conducted
by
the
American
Jewish
committee,
80
percent
of
American
Jews
stated
they
believe.
Anti-Semitism
has
increased
in
the
United
States
over
the
past
five
years.
Nearly
40
percent
of
American
Jews
have
avoided
certain
places
or
have
avoided
identifying
themselves
as
Jewish
out
of
fear
of
anti-semitism.
E
B
D
Yeah
and
as
I'm
raising
my
hand
to
speak,
I
am
remembering
that,
while
I
talked
to
some
of
you
about
this,
I
did
not
talk
to
all
of
you
about
this,
and
so
I
wanted
to
apologize
for
not
sending
out
a
hotline
Post
in
advance,
but
I
just
wanted
to
take
a
moment
to
lift
up
the
impact
of
recent
events
in
Iran
on
Iranian
and
Iranian
American
members
of
our
community.
D
Six
weeks
ago,
22
year
old,
Masa
Jeannie
amini
was
arrested
outside
a
subway
station
in
Tehran,
while
on
vacation
for
not
wearing
her
hijab
correctly.
She
was
tortured
and
beaten
while
in
police
custody
and
died
from
her
injuries
on
September
16th
for
seven
weeks,
Iranians
have
sustained
large-scale
demonstrations
for
women
life
and
freedom,
son
sandaki
Azadi
in
person,
more
than
300
people
have
been
killed
and
over
a
thousand
have
been
brutally
arrested
or
gone
missing
in
these
demonstrations,
mostly
young
adults
and
women.
D
B
J
Good
evening
Council,
my
name
is
Sarah
Huntley
I'm,
the
director
of
communication
and
engagement
for
the
city
of
Boulder
I,
see
Emily
has
pulled
up
slides
for
me.
Thank
you
so
much
so
we
have
a
number
of
people
participating
tonight
in
person,
as
well
as
a
number
of
people
participating
online.
As
you
said,
mayor
Brockett,
this
is
truly
the
hybridist
of
hybrid
tonight.
We
want
to
just
review
some
of
our
guidelines
for
participating
at
City
Council
meetings,
so
the
city
has
engaged
with
community
members
to
co-create
a
vision
for
productive,
meaningful
and
inclusive
Civic
conversations.
J
This
vision
is
designed
to
support
physical
and
emotional
safety
for
community
members
staff
and
Council,
as
well
as
promoting
democracy
with
perspectives
offered
by
people
of
all
ages.
Identities,
lived
experiences
and
politics
for
more
information
about
this
vision
and
the
community
engagement
that
led
to
it.
Please
visit
our
website
next
slide,
please
Emily
yeah.
To
be
more
specific.
There
are
some
specific
rules
of
decorum
found
in
the
boulder
Revised
Code
and
guidelines
that
support
having
a
productive,
Civic
conversation.
J
We
want
to
run
through
a
couple
of
these
just
quickly
tonight
all
remarks
and
testimony
whether
it's
in
person
or
online
shall
be
limited
to
matters
related
to
City
business.
No
participants
shall
make
threats
or
make
use
other
forms
of
intimidation
against
any
other
person,
obscenity,
racial
epithets
and
other
speech
and
behavior
that
disrupts
or
otherwise
impedes
the
ability
to
conduct
this
meeting
are
prohibited.
J
Participants
are
required
to
sign
up
to
speak
using
the
name
they're
commonly
known
by,
and
we
ask
that
you
display
your
whole
name
if
you're
in
an
online
format,
currently
only
audio
testimony
is
permitted
online
in-person
participants
are
asked
to
refrain
from
expressing
support
or
disagreement
verbally.
We
really
want
to
make
sure
that
every
perspective
in
the
room
feels
equally
welcomed
and
heard.
Traditionally,
support
has
been
shown
silently
either
through
American,
Sign,
Language
Applause,
or
what
some
people
refer
to
as
jazz
hands,
which
I'm
demonstrating
right
now.
J
B
Great
thanks
Sarah,
so
we're
going
to
start
with
our
in-person
speakers
and
I
understand
that
Robert
Tuney
and
Tim
Thomas
have
withdrawn.
So
we
have
six
other
in
person.
B
Thank
you
for
clarifying,
so
Tim
we'll
keep
you
on
the
list
for
open
comment.
So
we've
got
seven
people
testifying
in
person
and
please
come
on
down.
As
your
name
is
called,
we've
got
and
you
have
two
minutes
to
speak.
We
have
Patrick
Murphy,
Elisa,
Darrow
and
Patrick
O'rourke.
K
Boulder
53
years
2A
or
not
2A
2B,
or
not
to
be
those
the
climate
action
ballot
questions
a
pair
of
no's
are
a
good
answer.
I
want
carbon
reduction
fast
and
honestly
documented
No,
Such
Thing
exists
in
2A
or
2B.
We
do
need
to
spend
money
and
effort
to
reduce
carbon,
but
our
bureaucracy
is
Road
slop,
that's
spinning
our
Wheels
fewer
employee,
paychecks,
more
solar
incentives,
wind
incentives,
wrecks
and
energy
use
reduction
are
what
we
really
need.
L
K
Aren't
they
stimulate
the
renewable
industry
and
we
should
be
buying
all
the
wrecks
we
can
afford,
because
that
is
quantifiable.
Carbon
reduction,
the
boulder
climate
and
action
narrative
will
try
to
convince
you,
otherwise
why?
Because
that
simple
solution
would
end
some
of
their
jobs.
While
it
may
be
true
that
this
is
a
complex
problem,
paralysis,
complexicus
is
what
we're
suffering
at
a
cost
of
tens
of
millions
of
dollars.
K
By
voting,
no,
the
message
of
dissatisfaction
is
clear
fix.
It
first
then
show
us
the
carbon
reduction
and
the
true
cost.
So
then,
what
you
ask
without
the
taxes,
one
of
which
expires
next
year
and
the
other
in
2025,
there
will
be
time
to
reevaluate,
don't
feel
bullied
into
voting.
Yes,
think
critically,
the
planet
Burns
floods
and
dies,
while
Boulder
fiddles
with
climate
change.
K
M
B
N
Good
evening,
Tim
Thomas,
so
with
the
some
of
the
ballot
measures
that
are
coming
up
next
week,
we're
talking
about
changing
from
odd
year
elections
to
even
your
elections,.
N
I
strongly
feel
that
we
should
keep
our
local
elections
local
most.
The
interactions
that
people
have
with
government
are
local.
At
the
federal
level
you
tend
to
interact
with
the
TSA,
the
IRS.
Nobody
calls
the
FBI.
If
you
have
a
crime,
it's
local
government
that
does
the
things
that
we
think
are
important.
N
One
of
my
passions
is
the
housing
authority
of
Boulder
they're
planning
on
increasing
their
portfolio
of
apartments
by
hundreds
and
hundreds
of
units
by
2024.,
with
very
little
lack
of
accountability.
They
do
have
a
board
I
know.
At
least
one
of
you
is
on
it,
but
the
transparency
is
lacking.
I've
heard
comments
that
say
that
some
of
the
people
from
Boulder
housing
partners
are
residents,
of
which
I
am
one
when
they
come
and
they
speak
about
the
things
that
we're
we're
dealing
with.
N
N
O
Hi
I'm
miles
pose
and
a
friendly
neighbor
of
Chautauqua
for
24
years
I,
along
with
many
members
of
this
community,
were
appalled
to
learn
about
the
establishment
of
a
centralized
trash
collection
site
designated
for
100
homes
and
Cottages
located
in
the
East
parking
lot
of
Chautauqua.
Very
limited
notification
about
the
site
was
provided
months
after
construction
began.
O
Consensus
concerns
include,
among
others,
overall
intrusion
to
chautauqua's
Beauty.
We've
all
come
to
enjoy,
not
to
mention
playground,
safety
and
increases
in
noise,
Wildlife
activity,
traffic
litter
and
smells
I
shared
the
same
sentiments
as
many
neighbors,
because
the
site
is
located
approximately
a
hundred
feet
from
multiple
homes,
including
mine.
O
End
quote
further:
we
find
it
shocking.
There's
been
no
Community
collaboration
about
the
site,
despite
requirements
specified
in
the
lease
agreement
between
Chautauqua
and
the
city
of
Boulder.
Other
lease
requirements
not
followed,
include
cooperation,
transparency
and
quote
opportunities
for
public
input
for
collaborative
stewardship
in
the
public
interest.
O
End
quote:
this
lack
of
collaboration
is
in
stark
contrast
to
other
recent
successful
Chautauqua
projects
where
all
stakeholders
were
involved
I'm
here
today
to
urge
you
to
postpone
further
development
of
the
trash
collection
site
until
there's
a
proper
review
affording
all
relevant
stakeholders
opportunities
to
participate
in
the
process,
while
Chautauqua
has
primarily
been
a
good
neighbor.
Sadly,
in
this
case,
it
has
fallen
short.
P
Good
evening,
mayor
members
of
city
council,
it's
nice
to
see
you
again.
So
the
reason
that
I'm
here
today
actually
is
to
compliment
you
on
your
last
hearing
that
you
had
last
week
on
the
recommendations
that
you
took
in
from
the
housing
Advisory
Board.
This
is
a
great
time
to
be
thinking
outside
the
box
on
these
issues,
and
it
is
high
time
for
this
conversation.
I
talked
to
so
many
primary
employers
on
a
regular
basis
who
are
struggling
to
find
and
then
keep
employees
because
of
the
cost
of
housing.
P
P
It's
not
because
of
high
rent
rates,
not
because
of
high
property
rates
on
the
commercial
level.
It's
because
they
cannot
attract
the
employees
to
come
here
to
provide
medical
services
for
patients
who
live
here
in
our
community,
which
means
our
community
members
will
have
to
travel
to
Westminster,
to
Erie,
to
tacono,
to
Firestone,
to
get
the
critical
medical
services
that
they
need.
P
Now
it's
one
thing
to
complain.
It's
another
thing
to
actually
come
up
with
some
Creative
Solutions
I
just
wanted
to
list
a
couple
that
I
thought
were
incredibly
great:
around
edu's,
whether
it's
changing
parking
requirements
or
Expediting
the
permitting
process
or
making
it
lowering
the
fees
or
making
sure
that
the
fee
paid
into
the
affordable
housing
fund
for
new
residential
units
considers
the
number
of
units
rather
than
the
square
is
right.
Now
is
based
on
the
number
of
units
rather
than
the
square
footage.
Maybe
it's
time
to
change
those
numbers
a
little
bit.
P
I
live
by
the
terms.
What
can
I
do
for
you?
What
can
you
do
for
you,
and
what
can
we
do
together?
There's
a
lot.
The
business
Community
is
willing
to
step
up
and
do
I
know
that
you're
going
to
make
some
right
decisions
starting
next
week
and
I
look
forward
to
seeing
what
we
can
do
together.
Thank
you.
B
Jonathan

steinmo.
Q
Thank
you.
My
name
is
Sven.
Steinmo
I've
been
a
resident
here
for
35
37
years,
something
like
that.
I
live
in
South
Boulder
I'm
here
for
a
fairly
specific
issue,
but
I
think
it's
a
broader
issue,
but
first
I
want
to
acknowledge
that
you
all
deal
with
really
difficult
problems,
and
none
of
us
want
to
say:
oh
deals,
my
problem
and
no
one
else
where
I'm
the
most
important
person
in
the
world
that's
just
wrong.
Q
Q
We
have
over
a
hundred
thousand
people
used
it
last
year,
sometimes
700
in
a
day
very
commonly
400
or
500.
On
a
weekend
day.
The
problem
is
parking
because
it's
not
a
Trailhead,
it
doesn't
have
a
parking
lot
and
people
from
all
over
the
county
and
indeed
all
over
the
state
come
to
our
Trail
access
point
because
they
don't
have
to
pay
to
park.
The
consequence
is
the
people
in
the
neighborhood.
Q
Many
older
people,
many
people
have
been
there
for
20
and
30
and
40
years,
even
can't
access
their
own
driveways
and
in
fact
it's
quite
dangerous
people
it.
No
one
would
have
been
able
to
predict
that
there
were
one
Trailhead
in
Boulder
that
would
have
a
hundred
thousand
users
when
they
built
the
system,
so
we're
caught
a
little
bit
between
the
open
space
which
have
their
needs
and
the
parking
or
the
city
which
has
its
parking
needs.
Q
What
we're
asking
for
are
a
couple
simple
things:
one
we
want
to
we'd
like
to
have
a
neighborhood
parking
program
in
our
neighborhood:
that's
operated
on
weekends,
because
that's
critical.
Secondly,
we
would
like
to
have
enforcement
of
the
rules
that
currently
exist.
I
cannot
tell
you
how
often
we
have
someone
parking
in
our
driveways,
you
call
the
police
and
they
come,
but
the
person's
moved
more
consistent
enforcement
would
be
very,
very
helpful.
Ultimately,.
R
B
S
Yes,
hello.
Can
you
hear
me?
Yes,
okay,
this
is
Susan
Duncan
great
good
evening.
Council
members,
my
husband
and
I
are
Boulder
residents
living
year
around
in
Chautauqua
Park
out
of
the
97
cottages
and
two
lodges
on
the
camp
on
the
Chautauqua
campus
38
Cottages
are
privately
owned,
I'm
here
tonight
to
talk
about
the
new
trash
collection
system
that
is
being
implemented
here.
The
Chautauqua
Association
plans
to
remove
the
current
five
trash
disposal
sites
from
the
park
and
provide
one
Consolidated
space
at
the
foot
of
the
park
next
to
the
playground
in
pickleball
courts.
S
This
change
was
approved
by
the
landmark's
design.
Review
Committee
in
June
2021.
homeowners
received
no
notification
of
this
until
a
full
year
later
we
had
no
opportunity
to
provide
input.
The
homeowners
agree
that
having
the
large
Western
Disposal
trucks
drive
through
the
park
is
problematic
and
their
removal
would
be
positive
for
the
park.
We
were
blindsided,
however,
when
we
were
told
that
the
association
will
stop
providing
trash
pickup
service
to
our
homes,
but
continue
to
provide
daily
service
to
their
rentals.
We
must
drive
our
trash
down
to
the
site
at
the
foot
of
the
park.
S
The
association
has
told
us
that
the
trash
site
is
ADA
Compliant,
but
to
get
to
the
site
we
was
first
exit.
Our
cars
unlock
a
chain
barrier,
continue
our
drive
to
The
Container,
empty
the
trash
and
then
relock
the
chain
on
the
way
out.
The
site
is
currently
still
a
concrete
slab
and
metal
scaffolding.
The
homeowners
requested
meetings
with
the
association
to
try
to
arrive
at
a
solution
that
would
be
more
Equitable,
but
all
our
suggestions
were
turned
down.
S
The
single
alternative
available
to
us
is
to
purchase
special
Western
disposal
bags
and
use
these
for
weekly
curbside
pickup
by
Western.
This
solution
requires
that
we
still
our
trash
in
our
homes
because
none
of
us
have
a
garage
plus.
We
must
still
pay
Chautauqua
trash
pickup
fee.
The
cost
of
the
bags,
plus
the
photography,
will
be
more
expensive
than
what
people
in
the
surrounding
neighborhood
pay.
I
respectfully
requested.
The
council
delay
any
further
action
on
this
item
to
provide
all
concerned
parties
an
opportunity
to
reach
an
amicable
resolution.
Thank
you.
T
For
one
Aaron
Brockett
and
the
wife
of
one
of
our
Noble
laureates,
can
you
hear
me
clearly?
Yes,
yes
from
CU
in
the
Bose
einsteinian
Gardens
in
Nobles,
around
middle
cover
and
a
motorcycle
Bond
went
off
on
one
of
the
Lion's
Den
folks
there
he
had
a
five-month-old
kid
and
two
other
kids,
so
I
think
we
need
a
resolution
for
Palestinian
Justice.
T
Just
as
you
know,
Mark
had
his
discussion
of
protecting
Jews
in
the
United
States.
The
Palestinians
need
to
be
protected
too,
and
our
own
folks
could
have
gotten
harmed
in
that
situation.
They
were
in
the
same
neighborhood
as
this
motorcycle
bomb
exploded
and
killed
the
guy,
not
okay.
We
have
another
palestinian-american
Shireen
Abu
aklet
that
was
killed
in
Janine
a
month.
J
A
U
Hello,
everyone
first
of
all,
I
want
to
let
you
know
that
eTown
is
one
of
the
fortunate
Arts
organizations
that
has
received
General
operating
support
over
a
number
of
years
and
in
our
case
it's
for
an
extra
large
organization.
U
Covid
obviously
has
had
a
huge
impact
on
our
facility
and
our
business
as
well
as
all
performing
arts
organizations
in
Boulder,
post
covet,
has
been
kind
of
awkward
and
Recovery
has
been
slow,
so
one
covet
after
effect,
is
both
positive
and
negative,
and
that
is
that
wages
for
contractors
have
gone
up.
It's
more
fair
for
folks,
like
sound
engineers
and
lighting
designers.
U
It's
more
expensive
now
for
Arts
organizations,
so
I'm
here
just
asking
that
you
strongly
consider
allocating
remaining
arpa
funds,
especially
for
those
Arts
organizations
that
qualified
for
funding
but
were
not
awarded
funds.
This
would
affect
it
won't
affect
me
or
eTown.
Would
it
make
a
huge
difference
for
those
others
who
really
are
qualifying
and
deserve
our
our
support?
U
In
addition,
as
a
founding
board
member
of
create
Boulder,
I
hope
to
work
with
all
of
you
to
continue
to
advocate
for
increases
in
arts
funding
such
that
we
can
address
the
larger
issues
of
affordable,
Studios
and
performance
spaces,
affordable
housing
for
creatives
and
even
the
establishment
of
a
Performing
Arts
facility
in
central
Boulder
I
want
to
thank
you
again
for
the
support
that
we've
received.
I
also
want
to
acknowledge
that
Arts
funding
has
increased
over
the
past
few
years.
It's
a
great
start
again.
U
L
Yeah
hi
I,
recently
moved
to
I
bought
a
condo
in
Remington
post
in
Boulder.
L
Remington
post
is
managed
by
Hammer
Smith
Corporation
275
units
Hammersmith
has
land
that
it
manages
all
over
Boulder
Hammersmith
uses
panorama,
which
is
a
company
that
uses
toxic
chemical
pesticides,
I
thought
Boulder
was
environmentally
conscious
and
I
believe
it
is,
and
I'm
thankful
for
this
opportunity
to
speak
out
against
the
use
of
such
dangerous
pesticides.
L
The
nrdc
says
20,
it's
the
main
ingredient
in
the
pesticide
they
use
is
to
comma
four
dash
D,
the
nrdc
said
call
it
the
most
dangerous
pesticide
you've
never
heard
of
it
was
an
agent
orange.
It
was
first
used
in
1940s,
but
it
the
Rachel
Carson
Landmark
Alliance,
says
that
the
health
of
pet
people,
pets
and
Wildlife,
as
well
as
bees
and
broadleaf
plants,
may
be
adversely
impacted
by
two
comma
four
dash
D
I,
don't
know
what
Boulder
City
Council
can
do
to
stop
the
use
of
this.
Our
bees
are
being
endangered.
L
It's
getting
in
the
water
table.
It
is
not
okay,
it's
not
even
on
the
approved
pesticide
list,
but
on
the
approved
pesticide
list.
Here
too,
though,
conditional
Boulder
Boulder
City
approved
the
use
of
clear
cast
on
the
Wonderland
Trail
and
I
walk
that
trail
every
day,
and
it
has
moderately
a
toxic
effects
to
bees
and
other
wildlife
and
plant
life.
L
Even
moderately
is
not
okay,
but
mainly
it
has
a
high
probability
of
leaching
and
there's
streams
on
both
sides
of
this
trail
that
ran
most
of
the
summer,
all
on
Spring,
and
it's
obviously
going
to
leach
into
the
water
table.
Thanks
for
your
time.
Thank.
V
I
am
soprano
with
Community
Cycles
I'm
here
to
speak
quickly
on
two
issues.
The
first
issue
is
amps.
We
would
like
to
strongly
second
thoughts
put
forward
by
council
member
Benjamin.
We
are
nowhere
near
achieving
our
climate
change,
TMP
or
Vision
zero
goals.
Now
is
not
the
time
to
reduce
parking
prices
as
Matt
says,
parking
is
one
of
the
few
levers
we
have
to
reduce
VMT.
Our
parking
doesn't
begin
to
pay
a
fair
return
on
the
massive
public
investment
in
land
and
infrastructure
that
it
represents,
and
subsidized
parking
is
subsidized
driving.
V
We
should
be
moving
to
a
structure
in
which
all
public
parking
is
fairly
priced,
not
subsidized.
To
get
there.
We
should
be
increasing
parking
prices
to
the
extent
possible
and
not
decreasing
them.
Job
parking
policy
meet
our
climate,
TMP
and
vision,
zero
goals.
It
needs
to
be
managed
by
a
department
with
a
broader
scope
perspective
and
understanding
of
best
practices
in
VMT
reduction.
V
Transportation
is
that
department,
Community
Cycles
very
much
supports
the
council
having
this
discussion.
The
second
issue,
I'm
speaking
on,
is
the
new
CU
Aspen
skiing
company
Conference
Center
Broadway
in
Grandview.
We've
discussed
this
extensively
with
City
staff,
the
C
manager
of
the
C
attorney
the
relevant
boards,
and
most
of
you
simply
put
the
current
design
does
not
meet
the
city's
Vision
zero
principles
and
goals.
We're
asking
CU,
Aspen
skiing
company
to
conduct
a
safety
study
by
the
nation's
leading
biped
design
experts
tool
design.
This
will
bring
best
practices
to
this
intersection.
V
Many
of
you
also
like
the
Native
American
rights,
but
Audi
alternative
I
showed
you.
This
needs
to
fill
feasibility
study
now
in
order
to
proceed
and
become
and
have
any
chance
of
becoming
a
reality.
We
urge
you
to
recommend
to
CU
Aspen
skiing
company
that
the
commissioned
tool
design
to
do
a
safety
study
on
the
current
Broadway
Grandview
intersection,
design
and
conduct
a
feasibility
study
on
the
North
alley
alignment.
Thank
you
very
much.
M
So
thankfully
I'm
able
to
speak
tonight
about
a
month
ago,
I
was
playing
pickleball
of
all
things
at
Chautauqua
and
I'm,
one
of
those
people
that
gets
served
right
around
sunrise
and
I,
looked
to
the
over
the
beautiful
Boulder
Valley,
setting
the
open
land
there
and
from
the
tennis
courts
and
I
saw
this
metal
structure
there
and
I
said
to
myself:
oh
I,
wonder
what
that's
doing
I
wonder
if
they're
going
to
put
a
storage
structure
there.
Well,
lo
and
behold,
it
turns
out
it's
a
garbage
collection
center
for
Chautauqua.
M
The
reason
it's
important
to
me
is
I'm
the
preservation
chair
for
historic
Boulder,
so
anything
that
goes
on
at
your
doc.
Club
I,
try
to
be
aware
of
and
I
was
not
aware
of
that
and
apparently
I
wasn't
aware
of
it
because
back
in
and
it
was
October
of
2021
through
the
ldrc.
This
project
was
approved.
The
challenge
I
have
with
it
is:
when
you
do
it
through
the
ldrc,
you
have
a
staff
member
from
the
city
of
Boulder
doing
the
presentation.
M
The
city
of
Boulder
is
the
client
and
this
staff
person
is
permitted
to
vote
on
it
and
if
they
weren't
permitted
to
vote
it
would
automatically
go
to
the
landmarks
board
for
a
review.
In
my
opinion,
that's
probably
what
should
have
occurred
so
I
just
wanted
to
make
you
aware
of
it.
Number
two
is
that
it's
on
the
sight
line.
M
So
what
my
request
tonight
is
delayed
construction
of
the
project
and
do
everybody
a
favor
and
do
an
on-site
visit
and
meet
with
the
neighbors
I
think
you'll
be
pleasantly
surprised
or
you
will
be
surprised
that
there's
some
better
solutions
to
what's
been
proposed
by
Chautauqua
and
if
you
get
the
people
involved
and
work
together,
I'm
sure
there
can
be
a
satisfactory
conclusion.
Thank
you.
B
W
Thank
you
so
much
mayor,
I
appreciate
it.
I'll
say
there
are
a
couple
subjects
tonight
that
we're
going
to
be
talking
about
later
in
the
presentation,
particularly
with
regards
to
the
issue.
We
just
heard
right
now
regarding
Chautauqua
and
the
issue
that
Sven
brought
up
about
the
trailhead
and
we'll
be
talking
about
that
as
well.
W
We'll
also
be
talking
about
I'm,
sorry
with
the
issue
with
the
trailhead
that
will
be
part
of
the
amps
discussion
and
so
you'll
hear
from
staff
soon
about
those
I
did
want
to
say
to
Bella
who
called
Ann
about
the
pesticide.
It's
disturbing
to
hear
this
and
just
be
reassured
that
we
will
be
following
up
to
make
sure
that
any
such
issues
conform
with
the
regulations
and
the
ordinance
that
we
have.
So
we
will
follow
up
on
that
and
we
believe.
B
Great
and
can
I
actually
ask
a
clarifying
question
on
that
Nuria,
because
my
understanding
is
that
we
have
regulations
for
the
pesticides
that
are
used
on
our
own
properties
right.
We
have
control
over
that.
We
have
very
strict
rules
over
what
we
allow
to
be
applied,
but
I
don't
believe
we
have
regulatory
authority
over
the
pesticides
that
are
applied
on
private
property,
and
maybe
somebody
can
confirm
that
for
me,
but
I,
don't
I!
Think
that's
preempted
by
the
state
legislature.
W
Yeah
I
think
that
is
correct.
Mayor
and
still
we
want
to
make
sure
that
when
we
hear
about
it
that
we're
able
to
investigate
and
perhaps
explore
some
resolutions,
so
we
don't
want
to
just
lift
our
hands
and
say
that
is
not
ours.
There
are
times,
and
it
is
so
important
that
we
want
to
look
into
it.
So
we
will
do
so
as
we
think
about
this
case.
But,
yes,
you
are
correct
that
we
regulate
in
our
ordinance
regulates
things
that
are
on
city
property,.
B
X
Thank
you
so
much,
and
also
as
far
as
the
question
on
enforcement,
the
world
that'd
be
answered.
Later
too
is
that
is
that
the
hope.
W
I
think
that
it'll
be
great
to
hear
about
what
that
looks
like
and
I'm
myself
anxious
to
continue
to
hear
from
staff
about
what
that
is.
But
if
there
is
enforcement
to
be
had,
then
I
presume
that
staff
from
Community
Vitality
can
speak
to
that
and
if
there's
more
questions
that
we
have,
we
can
continue
to
follow
up
on
that.
Thank
you
very
much.
E
Yeah,
can
somebody
speak
to
this
Chautauqua
issue
and
and
how
we've
gotten
to
where
we
are
and
whether
there's
anything
to
be
done?
I.
W
Am
going
to
call
down
our
resident
historian
Chris
Mess
check,
who
has
a
lot
of
background
and
recalls
where
these
things
started.
So
Chris.
Y
Thanks
an
area
Chris,
Mess,
Jack,
Deputy
city
manager,
good
evening
Council,
so
I
might
I'm
going
to
I'm
going
to
go
a
little
high
level,
real,
quick
and
then
get
into
the
specific
issue.
Just
there
may
be
community
members
just
to
set
some
ground
council's
probably
aware.
Chautauqua
is
a
unique
location
and
the
city
plays
a
unique
role
in
that
the
city
is
the
owner
of
the
land
at
Chautauqua,
as
well
as
three
of
the
buildings,
and
then
that
landed
those
land
and
buildings
are
then
leased
to
the
Colorado
Chautauqua
Association.
Y
That
runs
the
operations
at
Chautauqua,
and
then
there
are
about
a
little
less
than
half
the
Cottages
are
owned
by
private
owners
that
then
have
a
sub
lease
with
the
Colorado
Chautauqua
Association
for
their
land
lease
that
their
house
sits
on
and
so
specific
to
the
concerns
that
were
raised
by
some
of
the
folks
tonight
regarding
trash
collection.
Y
Much
of
that
comes
out
of
there's
been
an
effort
between
the
city
and
the
Colorado
Chautauqua
Association
that
began
in
2019
called
the
the
Chautauqua
sustainability
and
resilience
plan,
and
part
of
that
was
a
vulnerabilities
assessment
and,
and
what
that
identified
is
one
of
the
needs
in
Chautauqua
is
around
deteriorating
road
conditions.
Y
One
of
the
recommendations
in
that
draft
plan
is
to
try
and
limit
heavy
vehicle
traffic
on
the
roads,
and
so
Chautauqua,
as
an
organization
has
chosen
to
do,
is
to
modify
the
way
trash
collection
works
in
the
Colorado
Chautauqua,
which
is
one
of
their
operational
decisions,
and
they
have
centralized
that
collection
to
one
location
to
avoid
having
trash
trucks
drive
down
in
each
of
the
individual
roads.
So
that's
the
background
on
the
trash
collection
issue.
That
is
an
item
that
is
outside
the
purview
of
the
city.
Y
There's
nothing
in
the
lease
that
the
city
has
with
the
Colorado
Chautauqua
Association.
That
I'm
aware
of
that,
would
dictate
any
City
role
in
how
trash
service
is
provided
up
at
Chautauqua.
The
item
on
your
agenda
tonight
is
the
landmark
alteration
certificate
that
is,
you
know
specific
to
the
proposal
that
they
have
for
a
trash
enclosure
that
would
be
evaluated
against
the
historic
preservation
code
and
the
criteria
and
the
code
for
its
construction
and
I
know.
We
have
staff
here
to
answer
specific
questions
about
that.
If
you
have
any.
B
And
we
we
will
get
to
that
item
separately
here
in
a
little
bit:
you're,
good,
okay
and
then
I
just
wanted
to
respond
personally.
B
Lynn
Siegel
mentioned
a
time
that
I
was
in
navless
not
long
ago
in
Palestine
and
just
want
to
mention
that
I
did
visit
our
sister
cities
of
navless
and
Palestine
and
Vermont
Han
Negev
in
Israel,
and
actually
my
colleague
Bob
Yates
here
visited
dushanbe
in
Tajikistan,
not
Longo,
and
we're
hoping
to
have
a
time
at
a
future
council
meeting
where
we
can
talk
a
little
bit
about
our
experiences
with
building
those
connections
with
our
sister
city.
So
to
say,
look
out
for
that
coming
at
a
meeting
near
you
anything
else,
all
right!
B
H
G
Yes,
Teresa
Taylor
Tate
City
attorney,
specifically,
you
may
recall
a
hotline
post
this
week
where
we
separated
out
the
item.
We
are
no
longer
looking
to
amend
the
rules
of
decorum
on
this
evening's
agenda,
but
we
are
still
looking
to
amend
the
nominations
and
elections
procedure
to
change
the
mayor,
Pro
tem
elections
from
Tuesday
evening
to
the
Thursday
evening.
E
E
B
B
B
C
Sir,
that
is
item
four
on
tonight's
agenda.
Our
call
up
check-ins
4A,
is
the
landmark
alteration
certificate
to
install
cementius,
siding
on
a
existing
garbage
enclosure
at
900,
Baseline,
Avenue
city
of
Boulder
Colorado,
a
property
in
the
Chautauqua
Park
historic
district
under
chapter
9-11,
historic
preservation,
BRC
1981.
B
Thanks
Alicia
I
guess:
I
would
start
with
a
request
to
staff
that,
given
some
of
the
concerns
about
trash
pickup,
that's
been
voiced,
maybe
to
talk
about
how
this
does
or
does
not
relate
to
those
concerns.
So
I
wonder
if
someone
City
staff
could
could
address
that
like
what
specifically
is
this
call-up
and
and
how
does
it
relate
to
some
of
the
stuff
people
were
talking
about.
Z
Would
like
to
also
pass
it
off
to
Christopher,
Johnson
and
Claire,
a
Brandt
who
are
on
line
to
be
able
to
speak
directly
to
that.
AA
Yes,
I'm
happy
to
do
that.
Thank
you,
mayor,
Brackett,
Christopher,
Johnson,
comprehensive
planning
manager,
so
I
oversee
the
Landmark
preservation
team.
This,
the
call-up
that
is
before
you
this
this
evening,
is
specific
to
the
material,
and
there
was
a
request
made
by
the
Colorado
Chautauqua
Association
from
the
previous
approval
for
this
trash
enclosure
to
change
the
material
from
wood
siding
to
a
cementitious
sighting.
So
that
particular
item
did
get
referred
to
the
board
and
that
was
reviewed
as
part
of
that
being
referred
to
the
board.
AA
It
was
a
public
hearing,
so
neighboring
properties
were
notified
and
that
cementitious
citing
was
ultimately
approved
by
the
board.
So
that
is
what
is
before
you
before
you
this
evening.
The
comments
that
were
made
earlier
in
particular
seem
to
be
more
around
the
location
of
the
trash
enclosure.
That
decision
was
made
by
the
landmarks
design,
Review
Committee,
which
is
comprised
of
a
staff
member
and
two
landmarks
board
members,
any
one
of
which
can
call
up
a
particular
item
to
the
full
landmarks
board
for
a
public
hearing.
AA
B
Thanks
Christopher
to
clarify,
then
that
what
is
before
us
is
simply
the
the
siding
material
being
used.
B
Thanks
for
that,
any
other
questions
on
this
item
or
desire
to
call
it
up.
B
I,
don't
either
so
I'm,
not
seeing
any
interest
in
calling
that
up
so
I
think
we
can
move
on
from
this
one.
Thanks
for
that
explanation,
we
have
one
more.
Yes,.
B
C
W
Thank
you
so
much
and
as
I
let
our
new
HR,
Chief
HR
Director
officer,
get
settled.
I'll
say
that
we
are
so
lucky
to
have
David
Bell
in
the
city.
He
has
been
up
to
speed.
This
has
been
an
issue,
obviously
that
a
lot
of
the
state
is
aware
of
and
when
to
have
a
quick
presentation
or
an
overview
by
David,
so
I
will
send
it
over
to
you.
AB
Thank
you,
neria.
Thank
you,
Council
for
allowing
me
to
be
here
this
evening.
I
Am,
David
Bell,
the
Chief
Human
Resources
officer
I've,
been
with
the
city
for
four
months
and
finding
my
way
through
and
navigating
to
this
position
this
evening
to
speak
with
you
about
the
Colorado
family
and
medical
insurance
program,
commonly
known
as
the
family
insurance
program
in
November
of
2020
Colorado.
Voters
did
approve
by
vote
Family
and
Medical
Leave
insurance
program,
which
requires
most
businesses
in
the
state
of
Colorado
to
participate
in
this
medical
support
or
leave
support
program.
AB
The
impetus
at
the
time
was
to
respond
to
identified
needs
with
some
private
businesses
that
did
not
have
leave
programs
available
covering
many
many
categories,
but
to
allow
for
the
declination
by
local
governments
because
of
high
quality
benefits
collaborative
Partnerships
with
our
labor
unions.
Etc
that
drive
some
of
our
leave
programs.
AB
At
this
time,
Human
Resources
is
recommending
that
the
city
of
Boulder
decline
participation
in
the
family
insurance
program.
To
do
so.
The
law
requires
the
public
body
to
vote
on
the
declination
of
participation.
If
that's
our
chosen
option
and
an
organization
could
choose
two
other
options
to
participate
in
full
or
to
accommodate
direct
payroll
deduction
and
contribution
for
individual
employees
to
participate.
Should
we
decline
participation.
We,
however,
are
recommending
at
this
time
full
declination
of
participation
in
the
family
program.
AB
AB
The
0.9
percent
salary
or
wage
contribution
does
approach
1.3
million
dollars
annually.
That
could
be
divided,
50
50
with
employees
and
City
contribution,
but
is
still
a
significant
contribution
on
both
parts.
Also,
a
decision
point
is
the
income
replacement
amounts
through
the
family
program.
It
is
differentiated
by
earning
level
and
currently
most
of
the
employees
earn
salary
wages
that
would
return
approximately
70
percent
in
income
replacement
through
the
family
program
versus
our
current
income
replacement
or
sick
leave.
AB
This
is
a
bit
small,
but
the
coverage
comparison
here
on
the
left
side
of
this
chart
shows
the
covered,
Family,
Leave
opportunities
and
on
the
right
side,
our
benefit
programs.
So
we
can
see
here
the
first
row
care
of
a
new
child,
including
adopted
or
fostered
children.
Our
programs,
such
as
paid
parental
leave,
sick
leave.
You
short-term
disability,
floating
holiday
vacation
leave
cover
that
type
of
absence,
care
for
personal
illness
or
injury
or
serious
health
condition.
Our
program,
sick
leave,
short-term
disability,
long-term
disability,
our
extended
sick
leave,
holidays
and
vacation
leave.
AB
Third
piece
care
of
family
member
series,
health
condition,
sick
leave,
floating
holiday,
vacation
leave,
emergency
leave,
Etc,
making
arrangements
for
a
family
member's
military
deployment.
We
allow
sick
leave
floating
holiday
and
vacation
leave
for
our
employees
and
the
last
piece
the
ability
to
address
immediate
safety
needs
associated
with
the
impacts
of
domestic
violence
and
or
sexual
assault.
Sick
leave
floating
holiday
vacation
leave.
In
addition,
we
have
policies
in
place
for
support
of
victims
of
domestic
violence
and
support
of
military
leave
and
deployment.
AB
This
piece
of
slide
deck
here
is
a
sample
from
the
Colorado
Family
Leave
program
website,
and
it
does
show
the
income
replacement
of
options
now.
This
is
still
a
formula
being
developed
by
the
program,
but
it's
an
estimate
right
now
available
for
individuals
to
see
and
we
can
see
the
higher
percent
90
for
our
lower
wage
earners
with
a
cap
of
1100
weekly
benefit
for
advanced
earners
or
higher
wage
earners.
So
it's
a
differentiated
percent
income
replacement
based
on
earnings.
AB
Through
that
program
we
have,
as
required
by
the
family
program,
had
a
series
of
communications
with
our
employees.
You
can
see
October
13th,
October,
20th,
October
27th.
We
have
communicated
through
our
employee
news
and
through
employee,
live
Town,
Hall
discussions,
Our
intention
to
decline
or
recommend
declination
of
the
family
insurance
program.
We
notified
staff
of
the
opportunity
for
public
comment
on
October
27th
to
be
available
and
present
tonight.
For
that
comment,
we
offered
an
opportunity
for
individuals
to
send
information
to
the
human
resources
benefit
team.
With
their
commentary
on
this
particular
program.
AB
We
collected
that
feedback
through
yesterday
November
2nd.
We
had
a
small
handful
and
the
general
statement
from
folks
is
that
there
is
an
interest
in
seeing
Improvement
in
benefits
for
seasonal
and
temporary
staff.
All
of
our
respondents
came
with
that
particular
focus
and
consideration
of
other
Leaf
benefits
for
that
seasonal
and
temporary
group.
AB
Currently,
our
seasonal
staff
and
all
employees
at
minimum
earn
the
required
sick
leave
by
the
healthy
family
workplace
act,
which
is
one
hour
for
every
30
hours
worked,
which
equates
to
2.67
sick
leave,
hours
per
pay
period
over
a
two-week
period
and
a
cap
of
48
hours.
So
there
is
an
availability
of
sick
leave
for
seasonal
employees,
not
as
extensive
as
some
other
benefits,
but
some
partial
benefit
for
individuals
working
in
a
seasonal
category.
AB
AB
And
with
that,
our
recommendation
is
to
adopt
resolution
1321,
declining
all
participation
in
the
Colorado
Family
Medical
Leave
insurance
program,
and
by
making
that
declination
we
would
be
exempt
from
this
program.
I
would
not
have
to
readdress
participation
for
another
eight
years
at
which
time
we'd
have
to
choose
to
be
in
or
out
again
at
that
particular
time.
B
All
right
thanks
so
much
for
that
David
and
welcome
to
your
first
council
meeting.
It's
great
to
have
you
on
board
and
here
with
us.
D
Yeah
and
thank
you
got
a
few
questions
and
thanks
also
for
answering
my
questions
in
advance,
so
you
mentioned
that
we
could
change
our
minds
potentially
so
say
next
year.
Is
that
a
time
where,
where
we
would
be
able
to
opt
in
if
we
chose
to
at
that
point,
there.
AB
Is
an
opportunity
to
opt
in
at
a
future
date?
The
State
has
yet
to
clearly
Define
when
that
opt-in
period
comes
if
it's
January
1st
of
each
year
right
now,
they
seem
to
be
following
a
first
of
year
period
and
Human.
Resources
would
monitor
the
development
of
the
program
and
consider
a
recommendation
in
a
different
way
in
the
future.
Should
it
be
appropriate.
D
Okay,
thank
you
and
then
I
also
just
had
a
couple
of
other
questions.
So
one
of
the
things
that
I
understand
about
the
family
program
is
that
it,
the
threshold
for
reaching
that
12
weeks
of
paid
leave,
is
really
quite
minimal.
That
you
need
to
I
think
earn
about
twenty
five
hundred
dollars
over
the
last
few
quarters
or
something
like
that,
and
then
you
qualify
for
the
paid
leave
and
with
our
current
system,
I
think
probably
like
most
paid
leave.
D
You
have
to
earn
your
vacation
leave
or
your
sick
leave
that
you're
using
over
time.
So
you
know,
one
of
the
things
I'm
wondering
is
how
many
of
our
employees
are
actually
accruing
enough
leave
to
kind
of
get
their
full
12
weeks
paid
by
the
time,
they're.
Actually
using
it
and
I
understand.
You
may
not
have
that
answer
tonight,
I'm,
just
wondering
if
there's,
if
that's
anything
that
was
taken
into
account
in
the
decision
around
how
quickly
that
leave
kicks
in
for
employees
who
are
newer
to
the
organization.
AB
It's
a
piece
of
analysis
that
we
need
to
dig
in
a
little
more
deeply.
Of
course
we
have
employees,
you
know
1400
standard
employees
with
a
various
length
of
tenure
in
the
organization,
and
there
are
some
large
accrued
sick
leave.
Banks
vacation,
Banks,
Etc,
newer
employees,
they're
earning
sick
leave
generally
at
about
a
day
a
month.
So
it
does
take
some
some
time
to
hit
that
12
weeks.
In
total,
there
is
after
1250
hours
protection
through
FMLA
for
job
protection.
AB
We
also
are
earning
the
vacation
hours
for
individuals
so
near
the
same
rate
and
of
course
we
have
emergency
leave
or
bereavement
leave
Etc
that
can
come
into
place.
So
it's
not
an
immediate
response
of
12
weeks
of
paid
leave
for
General
serious
illness
for
the
person
or
for
their
family
member,
but
there
are
when
we
do
have
those
dollars
available
or
Cruise
available
they're
at
100
percent
of
pay,
rather
than
the
differentiated
income
from
the
family.
D
Thank
you
and
then
one
of
the
things
I
was
wondering
about
is
so
our
employees
are
getting
short-term
disability.
They
have
the
option
of
having
short-term
disability
insurance.
I
believe
right,
who
are
above
a
threshold
for
for
accessing
those
benefits,
is
family,
something
that
could
take
the
place
of
the
short-term
disability
that
we
have
I
mean.
Do
they
kind
of
serve
the
same
purpose
that
look
like
they
were
in
similar
places
on
the
charts
up
there.
So
I
was
just
wondering
about
that.
AB
There
was
similarity
between
short-term
disability
coverage
and
the
family
coverage.
Yes,
the
short-term
disability
coverage
is
a
city
paid
benefit,
so
there's
not
contribution
from
employees
for
that
piece,
nor
the
long-term
disability
or
life
insurance
benefits.
So
they
they
come
in
package
right
now
and
we
are
committed
to
reviewing
the
aspects
of
that
short-term
and
long-term
disability
plan.
D
D
Okay,
and
with
that,
are
there
any
kind
of
incentives
that
the
governments
have
been
offering
to
employees,
because
the
way
that
I
understand
it,
it's
likely
to
be
our
either
part-time
workers
or
seasonal
workers.
Those
that
are
that
may
be
the
lowest
paid
workers
who
would
be
most
interested
potentially
in
the
family
program.
D
So
have
we
thought
about
whether
there
are
any
incentives
we
could
offer
to
those
employees,
because
sometimes
it's
it's
hard
as
an
employee,
especially
if
you
are
a
lower
wage
employee
to
think
about
spending
a
little
bit
of
extra
money
in
the
moment
when
everything
is
fine
right
and
you're?
Not
thinking
about
any
of
these
things
that
may
come
up
requiring
12
weeks
of
leave,
so
I
was
just
wondering
if
we
thought
about
incentives,
yeah.
AB
I
think
we'd
have
to
step
very
carefully
into
an
incentive
program
to
encourage
people
to
participate
in
an
alternative
benefit
program,
so
we'd
be
looking
at.
How
can
we
supplement
our
current
benefit
programs
Etc
and
make
the
positions
more
appealing
to
hold
and
to
have
appropriate
benefits
with
our
organization
and
potentially
make
the
individual
choice
to
participate
in
the
family
program?
AB
What
we
do
know
is
that,
first
and
foremost,
we
are
not
certain
yet
from
the
state
what
their
process
will
be
for
direct
contribution
for
employees,
what
it
might
look
like
Etc,
but
as
soon
as
we
have
that
we
are
not
only
committed
to
but
obligated
to
communicate
to
employees
about
how
to
participate.
In
addition,
we're
in
the
same
spot
as
many
other
organizations
throughout
Colorado.
X
Thank
you,
I
just
want
some
clarification
about
the
opt-in
opt
out.
You
mentioned
that.
There's
two
things
I
hear:
that's
not
it's
not
matching
for
me.
You
mentioned
we
can
appton
in
the
future
but
I'm
thinking.
But
if
we
opt
out,
we
will
not
revisit
the
issue
for
another
eight
years.
That's
what
I
hear.
AB
If
we
opt
out,
we
are
required
by
the
state
to
reaffirm
that
opt
out
at
the
eight
year
mark,
but
we
can
choose
to
opt
in
again
at
one
year
mark
to
your
mark
through
your
mark,
for
your
mark
anytime
in
the
future.
If,
after
eight
years
we
do
not
reaffirm
or
opt
out,
then
we
would
be
automatically
opted
in.
X
AB
I
think
that
what
we
would
project
during
the
next
year
or
second
year
of
the
program
is
we'll
be
watching
the
growth
of
the
family
program,
the
success
of
the
family
program
and
our
employees
will
as
well
and
they'll,
be
speaking
to
Human
Resources
through
feedback
through
town
hall.
Etc
and
they'd
have
opportunity
to
speak
with
you
or
engage
with
you
as
a
board
or
as
a
council
members
through
General
communication.
X
Okay,
no
thank
you
for
that.
So
what
I'm
hearing
is
you'll
study
this
as
it
and
see
what
happens
maybe
in
a
year
if
it's
favorable
or
not
favorable,
but
if
it
makes
sense
for
the
city,
then
you
might
be
able
to
bring
it
forward
to
council
again
for
another
consideration,
but
that's
not
necessarily
what
you're
saying
but
just
hypothetical.
Maybe
that.
AB
X
AB
X
AB
They
want
to
make
an
opportunity
for
the
state
to
allow
employees
to
engage
human
resources
and
say
we
want
to
contribute
individually
directly,
and
then
we
have
to
be
the
pass-through
and
making
those
payroll
deductions
Etc,
which
is
kind
of
a
technical
component
that
we
haven't
investigated
because
the
state
hasn't
provided
any
pathway
or
specifications
for
that.
Yet
thank.
X
M
B
Other
questions
all
right,
seeing
none,
then
let's
go
to
the
public
hearing,
so
our
one
in
person
speaker,
Tim,
Thomas,
did
bow
out.
So
we
got
three
virtual
speakers:
Lynn
Siegel,
Vanessa,
Quintana
and
Sonia
Sarabia.
Each
of
you
will
have
three
minutes
to
speak.
So
if
we
can
start
with
Lynn,
please.
T
T
I
thought
I
was
going
on
and
I
thought
this
seems
like
a
long
time,
and
it
was
just
because
you've
gone
on
to
the
next
speaker
and
I
didn't
know
because
I
didn't
have
any
audio
visual
well,
I
had
visual
only
anyway
I
support
the
family
leave
and
the
any
extra
benefits
the
city
can
give.
T
I've
I
recently
found
out
I
worked
at
Denver
General
for
10
years
for
12
years
and
found
out
that,
because
they've
been
mailing
to
my
old
address
for
the
last
22
years
and
I
only
had
one
other
address:
the
dress
I'm
at
now,
I
lost
thirty
five
thousand
dollars
worth
of
retirement
benefits
because
I
didn't
know
about
them
and
they
have
a
clause
in
the
Denver
Municipal
Code
that
allows
them
to
not
pay
retroactive
retirement
benefits.
So
now,
I
have
to
go
to
a
lawyer
and
fight
this.
T
Well,
if
that's
the
case,
then
so
what
why
not
approve
something
that
wouldn't
even
be
used
right,
I've,
never
understood
that
so
I
fully
support
going
through
the
maximum
benefit,
and
it's
a
not
an
easy
job.
You
have
to
deal
with
people
and
that
can
be
tough.
T
Oh
sorry,
can
you
hear
now
yeah,
okay
as
a
public
working
for
the
city
and
as
a
public
servant,
you
know
you're
subject
to
hard
work,
so
you
should
get
your
benefits
and
so
I
say
go
for
it
don't
hold
back
it's
kind
of
like
the
library
district,
10
million
dollars
that
was
hidden
into
the
city
coffers.
That's
really
not
very
ethical
to
thanks.
AC
Good
evening
Boulder
City
councilors,
my
name
is
Vanessa
Quintana
and
I'm,
a
senior
strategist
at
Colorado
nines.
At
five,
we
chair
the
family
implementation
Coalition
and
represent
Community
leaders,
who
are
also
residents
of
Boulder
I,
have
I'm
speaking
today
in
as
well
as
one
colleague
and
we're
here
to
voice
concern
with
the
city
of
Boulder,
declining
participation
in
family,
with
doubt
that
the
bill
will
be
implemented
equitably
in
coverage
of
workers.
AC
I'm
honestly
surprised
to
see
Boulder
City
Council
is
debating
whether
to
decline
participation
in
family,
given
the
track
record
of
being
pro-worker
policy
makers,
it's
possible.
The
city
of
Boulder
may
be
looking
to
other
governments
who
are
also
declining
to
participate
in
family.
But
please
note
that
it
is
false
to
believe
that
when
you
opt
out
that
you're
automatically
going
to
have
something
better,
have
better
benefits.
In
reality,
better
benefits
are
often
only
to
the
economically
advantaged
workers,
even
if
most
of
your
workers
will
be
fine.
AC
That
will
not
be
an
equitable
solution
for
paid
leave,
something
that
family.
The
family
statue
is
specifically
designed
to
address,
for
example,
low-wage
workers,
part-time
workers,
seasonal
workers
and
workers
with
oppressed
identity
such
as
women,
lgbtq
workers,
black
and
indigenous
people
of
color
or
other
workers.
These
workers
are
more
likely
to
be
in
lower
paid
part-time
or
short-term
positions
and
have
a
higher
need
for
safe
time.
Caregiving
leave
and
and
an
expansive
family
definition
I
represent
that
respects.
AC
Intergenerational
households
and
community
cultivated
families
under
family
workers
only
need
to
earn
2500
in
the
last
several
quarters
to
be
eligible,
there's
no
local
time
our
requirements
or
Etc.
Even
if
workers
opt
in
as
individuals
to
family,
they
will
not
be
covered
by
the
Law's
job
protection
requirement,
which
is
a
significant
deterrence
from
taking
lean.
We
have
also
learned
that
your
workers,
who
clock
at
least
20
hours
a
week
and
do
have
access
to
Leading
benefits
existing
benefits,
fall
short
in
comparison
to
family.
AC
For
example,
short-term
disability
caps
at
60
percent
of
wages
cannot
be
taken
intermittently
and
has
a
longer
delay
on
claim
approvals
and
benefit
pay
payout.
The
details
of
your
parental
leave
should
be
examined
to
understand
if
all
families
will
be
able
to
care
for
a
new
child,
whether
through
birth,
foster,
adoption
and
various
legal
biological
and
chosen
family
relationships.
AC
Also,
if
your
emergency
leave
would
serve
for
safe,
timely
for
all
scenarios
without
barriers,
equivalent
wage
replacement
and
duration
of
leads,
it
is
essential
that
this
analysis
is
conducted
to
ensure
that
the
city
of
Boulder
upholds
the
attention
of
the
voters
in
approving
the
statute
to
provide
Equitable
coverage
for
all
workers
and
their
families.
Please
participate
in
family
and,
if
you
don't
ensure
that
by
January
1st
2024,
that
coverage
is
ready
for
all
workers,
including
that
the
short
time
of
seasonal
workers.
Thank
you.
R
Hello,
my
name
is
Sonia
with
95
Colorado
I'm,
also
a
boulder
resident
at
95.
We
organize
and
build
power
collectively
to
improve
democracy
and
Champion
Justice
Center
public
policy.
Many
of
our
members
and
Community
leaders
are
residents
of
Boulder
I,
encourage
you
to
respect
the
will
of
Boulder
voters
and
participate
in
families
for
the
collectively
Collective
good
of
every
Boulder
worker.
We
all
we
all
benefit
when
everyone
in
our
community
is
cared
for.
According
to
the
Boulder
County
2020
election
results,
proposition
118
was
overwhelmingly
supported
with
over
70
percent
of
the
vote.
R
That
means
seven
internal
Boulder
voters
supporter
they
pay
Medical
and
family
campaign
because
they
value
the
coverage
of
12
weeks,
pay,
leave
to
support
family
facing
the
challenge
or
welcoming
your
child
to
their
life
while
facing
the
challenge,
while
you're
both
your
vote
tonight
will
not
change.
Non-City
workers
access
your
family.
It
appears
that
contradiction
for
their
local
government
to
the
nine
city
workers,
the
same
access
and
until
not
participate
as
an
employer
in
the
community.
Adapting
to
a
new
program
is
an
adjustment
that
affects
budgets
and
other
benefits.
R
However,
this
is
already
happening
at
the
state.
In
the
private
sector
condition
me
I,
like
your
voice,
that
concerned
for
the
Boulder
City
workers,
who
are
seasonal,
temporary
and
part-time
below
20
hours
a
week.
These
workers
do
not
have
an
existing
leave
benefits
from
the
city
support
themselves
and
their
families,
but
we're
equally
deserving
of
themselves
and
the
serving
as
a
boulder
resident
I'm
invested
in
a
well-round
city
government
is
able
able
to
attract
and
retain
the
workers
in
all
positions.
B
F
I
should
ask
this
question
at
the
time
I
needed
to
be
clarified
in
my
own
head.
Tell
me
what
I
don't
understand
why
you
would
not
want
to
buy
into
this
program?
What
would
be
the
downsides?
What
are
the
re?
What
are
your
specific
reasons?
Why
not
because
I'm
thinking
about
all
the
temporary
workers
and
the
seasonal
workers
and
people
have
a
point,
they
definitely
have
more
stress
more.
You
know
I
mean
to
me
just
hearing
it
from
their
point
of
view.
It
makes
a
lot
of
sense
to
buy
into
it.
AB
So
it's
maybe
a
bit
less
of
there's
negatives.
To
what
does
this
program
cost
for
coverage
and
where
does
it
overlap
with
what
we
currently
have
and
how
does
it
counteract
things
that
we
have
in
place
already?
The
large
component
in
our
recommendations,
which
I
put
up
here
again,
would
be
the
income
replacement
amount
is
not
as
rich
as
some
of
our
benefits.
AB
Now
with
our
seasonal
employees,
they
earn
a
smaller
amount
of
sick
time
as
a
council
member
sphere
noted
or
questioned
a
little
bit
earlier
and
I
responded
there
as
well
a
little
bit
less
and
it
doesn't
accrue
quickly
enough
to
cover
early
12-week
periods.
So
that
is
a
negative.
But
the
other
piece
is
second
bullet
point
here.
We
would
be
paying
premium
on
every
employee
in
the
organization,
and
many
of
those
wouldn't
actually
use
this
program
because
they're
going
to
be
using
their
other
benefits
that
we
have
in
place.
AB
So
we
are
putting
monies
in
covering
every
employee
for
the
benefit
of
a
smaller
amount,
who
may
or
may
not
be
using
the
benefit
and
there's
there's
kind
of
a
cost
ratio
in
there
that
we're
trying
to
identify.
The
idea
of
the
short-term
disability
plan
is
their
benefit
to
moving
into
the
family
program
and
ending
our
short-term
disability
program.
There's
a
possibility
there,
but
the
cost
ratio
is
not
in
Balance
right
now.
It
is
not
a
1.3
million
dollar
cost
for
our
short-term
disability.
AB
B
AB
That
is
the
most
common
selection
of
cost
sharing
for
this
particular
program
or
the
these
expected
cost
sharing
for
this
program.
Some
organizations
could
choose
to
pay
the
entire
point:
nine
percent
and
not
pass
any
cost
to
their
employees.
If
we
were
to
do
that,
we'd
be
paying
the
full
1.3
million
dollars
plus
as
a
city.
If
we
divide
it
evenly
50
50,
then
yes,
the
0.45
percent
would
come
out
of
employee
paychecks.
Each
pay
period.
X
Thank
you,
I.
Thank
you.
So
much
I
know
I,
hear
Tara
and
it's
very
confusing
as
well.
So
I
just
need
some
clarification
for
myself
and
I'm
sure
there
are
some
people
who
are
also
wondering
this
is
basically
an
additional
entitlement
and
based
on
what
I
hear
from
you
and
I
was
looking
as
well.
The
employee
handbook
from
fmle
online.
It
says
employee,
may
choose
to
use
sick
leave
or
other
employee
provided
paid
time
off
before
using
fmly
benefits,
but
they're
not
required
to
do
so
right.
X
So
that
means
they
can
use
their
their
City
benefit
and
then,
if
they
so
choose,
they
can
at
a
later
time,
if
they
still
have,
they
can
use
it
as
well.
So
it's
an
additional
entitlement.
So
it's
not
really
in
conflict
with
the
benefits
that
we
have.
So
if
someone
let's
say
as
a
CD
employee,
I
decide.
Okay,
I'm
gonna
use
my
CDM
benefits,
then
once
that's
run
out,
I
still
have
the
opportunity
to
use
the
fmle.
Is
that
correct.
AB
So
there,
where
I,
want
to
make
sure
we're
clarifying
FMLA
versus
Family
Insurance,
so
two
different
programs
there
FMLA,
is
the
job
protection
for
12
weeks
for
a
serious
injury,
illness
care
of
a
family
member.
This
family
program
is
an
insurance
program
and
it's
still
to
be
determined
and
what
you
read
is
correct,
but
it
is
to
be
determined
how
all
the
different
benefit
plans
interact.
AB
An
employee
could
use
their
sick
leave
time
before
making
a
claim
to
the
state
under
the
family
insurance
program
and
thus
extend
out
a
period
that
they
would
be
absent
from
work
or
not
contributing
on
their
work
site
with
us
and
have
an
extended
period
of
time
away,
using
both
of
those
benefits.
It's
incumbent
on
us
to
make
sure
we're
being
thoughtful
and
responsible
in
the
benefits
that
we
provide
to
our
team
members,
whether
it's
through
a
vacation
accruals
of
this
family
insurance
program,
the
short-term
disability
program
Etc.
AB
We
also
do
not
know
yet
how
our
short-term
disability
vendors
are
going
to
react
and
respond
to
a
program
such
as
family
insurance.
If
that
changes
their
premium
gain
each
month
each
year,
Etc.
So
we're
watching
that
it's
not
it's
not
a
perfect
answer.
I
understand
that,
but
we're
all
learning
about
this
program
because
we're
not
buying
an
established
program
we'd,
be
contributing
wage
percentage
each
period,
each
pay
period
for
something
that's
in
development
and
we're
still
trying
to
understand
the
intricacies
of
use.
X
AB
We
could
change
our
benefit
structure
and
what
we
offer
to
our
employees
that
we
could
do
that.
It
will
take
some
time
to
review
our
short-term
disability
benefit
programs,
the
impact
in
the
long-term
disability
program,
the
accrual
rates.
Those
are
things
that
could
be
changed
and
many
of
those
are
negotiated
agreements
with
our
three
local
unions
and
it's
one
idea
to
approach
changing
that
and
another
to
actually
accomplish
that
kind
of
change.
AD
Thank
you,
Erin
I
I
have
another
question.
It
sounds
like
you
know,
based
on
some
of
the
Outreach
that
you
did
to
employees,
that
there's
been
this
kind
of
need
identified
around
benefits
for
seasonal
workers
and
so
I'm
just
wondering
what
are
we
doing.
AD
Is
that
something
that
we're
going
to
be
looking
at
addressing
sort
of
regardless
of
whether
or
not
we
choose
to
opt
into
this
program,
or
is
that
anyway,
could
you
kind
of
address
if
that's
something
that
we're
going
to
be
looking
at.
AB
Based
on
the
feedback
that
we're
hearing
from
all
of
our
staff
in
support
of
seasonal
employees
and
the
seasonal
employees
themselves,
yes,
we
are
monitoring
that
program.
We
are
working
on
that
actively,
of
course,
right
now
we're
stepping
into
our
open
enrollment
period
for
this
coming
year
with
our
existing
benefit
programs.
But
it's
something
that
we
intend
to
Monitor
and
make
recommendation
to
the
city
manager
for
any
change
in
the
future.
B
I
could
follow
up
on
that
so
Nicole
earlier
asked
about
incentives
for
participation,
which
you
said
you
know
there
are
issues
with
that,
but
in
terms
of
looking
at
our
temporary
and
seasonal
employees,
I
think
what
I'm
hearing
is:
that's
where
we
have
a
gap
between
the
the
benefits
that
we
provide
and
the
the
benefits
that
the
family
program
provides.
So
are
there.
There
are
ways
that
we
could
at
least
notify
people
of
of
the
existence
of
the
program.
You
know
so
include
information
about
it.
B
Maybe
have
somebody
on
staff
who
said
who
could
answer,
questions
could
say:
oh
yeah,
you
would
apply
for
it.
This
way,
you
know
guide
them
through
the
process
if
they
were
interested
in
participating.
So
there's
kind
of
a
clear
pathway
for
those
employees
who'd
be
interested
in
participating
to
get
them
into
that
program.
AB
Absolutely,
and
should
the
city
council
take
the
recommendation
forward
to
decline
participation.
It
is
an
obligation
to
the
declining
employer
to
communicate
to
all
the
employees
the
option
for
direct
contribution,
and
we
will
make
that
part
of
our
onboarding
for
all
new
employees
and
part
of
our
open
enrollment
process
as
well
each
year
with
our
benefits
programs
thanks.
B
AE
AE
Was
just
going
to
ask
kind
of
following
up
on
Aaron's
question:
if
could
we
offer
to
all
employees?
You
know
we're
opting
out,
but
anybody
can
opt
in
as
I
understand
it,
not
just
seasonal,
but
anyone
like
it
sounds
like
there's.
Maybe
an
add-on
benefit
possibly
to
anyone
to
do
it.
Could
we
still
do
the
the
matching
like
0.45
and
they
could
do
0.45,
or
is
that
like
disqualifying,
like
so
we'll,
be
offering
it
to
all
employees.
AB
AE
AE
So
is
there
something
that
that
prohibits
us
I
assume
that
a
lot
of
employees
would
not
opt
in,
but
could
we
not
have
a
program
what
anybody
could
opt
in
and
we
will
do
the
0.45
and
they
can
do
the
0.45
and
it's
going
to
be
something
less
than
1.3
million
ticket
everyone,
because
it
sounds
like
we
don't
maybe
want
to
take
on
the
additional
expense,
but
some
people
would
be
helped
by
it.
Is
there
something
that
that
stops
us
from
doing
that.
AB
Thank
you
for
clarifying
the
question
certainly
have
to
investigate
that
a
little
more
fully.
My
initial
thoughts
on
that
particular
piece
is
when
an
employee
directly
contributes
to
the
program
after
an
organization
declines
participation,
they
contribute
at
the
point
four
or
five
percent
of
their
wage
or
salary,
but
it
doesn't
lower
their
benefit
when
they
actually
make
a
claim.
So
the
idea
of
us
contributing
additionally
or
parallel
it
would
not
go
to
supplement
their
leave
usage.
AE
Need
to
look
into
the
number
then
I
think
maybe
I'm
saying:
could
we
pay
half
the
cost,
how
you
would
do
if
we
opted
into
the
program?
It
sounds
like
some
employers
pay,
half
and
employees
pay
half.
Could
we
just
say:
hey
anybody
can
enroll
in
this
and
we'll
even
kick
in
half
it's
sort
of
to
Nicole's
incentive
which
it
sounds
like.
We
don't
want
to
disincentivize
people
from
participating
in
our
own
programs,
but
this
could
be
an
add-on
for
anyone.
So.
AB
Q
D
Thank
you.
So
it
is
another
question
and
I
do
have
some
comments
whenever
we
get
to
those.
This
is
just
around
I
know
in
the
budget
that
we
just
approved
right
so
I
understand.
One
of
the
issues
with
this
is
that
we
just
approved
our
budget
for
next
year.
So
the
idea
of
trying
to
find
1.3
million
dollars
in
a
budget
that
was
already
approved
is
challenging,
if
not
impossible,
but
with
that
I
know
that
we
had
some
money
in
there
for
recruitment
retention.
D
Those
kinds
of
things,
David
I've
heard
you
talking
about
doing
some
work
to
kind
of
assess
our
lower
wage
earners
and
figure
out.
You
know
what:
how
do
we
need
to
raise
those
wages?
AB
Very
much
so
a
good
question,
but
when
we
haven't
imagined
yet
the
recruitment
efforts
around
the
recent
budget
has
been
around
support
and
drawing
folks
into,
and
certainly
retention
is
an
envelope
there
as
well.
But
we
haven't
stepped
in
to
leave
usage
and
other
benefits
yet.
But
a
good
question
and
we'll
investigate
that
as
well.
X
AB
X
I
think
part
of
my
I
would
not
be
in
supporting
and
declining
today.
This
seems
like
a
benefit.
That
is
an
additional
entitlement,
as
opposed
to
and
I
understand,
the
idea
that
one
million
dollars
1.3
you
mentioned
would
be
the
additional
cost,
but
if
we
were
to
look
into,
if
we
were
to
opt
out
trying
to
set
up
a
program,
I
would
imagine
it
would
require
staff,
and
that
would
also
require
hours
and
that
would
require
dollars.
X
So
I
I,
just
don't
see
why
we
couldn't
do
this
so
I'm
in
full
support
and
tonight,
as
of
tonight,
I,
don't
think
you've
presented
to
me.
How
do
I
put
it
in
a
way
that
would
convince
me
that
we
should
not
participate
in
this
program.
That
could
benefit
a
lot
of
our
current
employees,
especially
knowing
that
some
people
can
only
be
seasonal
workers.
They
can
only
work
seasonally,
so
they
should
not
not
have
the
opportunity
in
these
benefits.
X
B
D
So
I
think
where,
where
I'm
stuck
on
this,
is
that
I
really
don't
like
leaving
temporary
workers,
seasonal
workers,
workers
who
haven't
accrued
enough
leave
behind,
especially
when
some
of
these
workers
were
causing
a
lot
of
shortage
of
these
workers
was
causing
some
concerns
for
our
community
around
hiring
some
of
the
workers
so
I.
You
know,
I
also
hear
that
we,
you
know,
have
approved
the
budget
right
trying
to
think
about
where
this
comes
from.
D
It
also
I
believe
the
the
benefits
would
not
start
for
employees
until
January,
1st
2024,
if
I'm
understanding
correctly.
D
So
what
I
would
really
like
to
see
from
this
is
some
more
Outreach
to
staff,
especially
staff
who
don't
qualify
for
City
paid
leave,
but
also
staff
who
qualify
for
paid
leave
that
has
to
be
accrued
because
I
think
that
it
does
affect
them
as
well,
because
with
the
family
program,
they
can
take
their
12
weeks
of
paid
leave
and
not
use
their
other
leave.
D
This
was
one
of
the
things
when,
when
I
had
my
first
child
I
had
four
weeks
of
paid
leave,
that
was
it
I
had
a
C-section
I
was
back
to
work
after
four
weeks
and
when
my
child
started
getting
sick
from
going
to
daycare,
so
early
I
had
used
all
my
leave
right.
So
this
is
something
that
kind
of
parents
especially
are
running
into,
so
I
really
would
love
to
think
about.
What
are
we
doing?
D
That
is
matching
the
benefit
of
the
family
program,
especially
for
the
workers
who
are
struggling,
the
most
with
low
low
wages
and
the
cost
of
living
around
here.
Child
care,
all
of
those
things
the
so
the
family
program
is
available
to
everybody,
regardless
of
how
much
they
work
I
think
that's
a
huge
benefit.
It's
not
just
for
workers
who
are
fifty
percent
time
or
more.
It
can
be
used
in
a
variety
of
circumstances,
so
including
escaping
unsafe
situations
like
domestic
violence
or
stalking
recovering
from
sexual
assault.
D
That,
to
me
feels
like
a
really
important
piece
of
this.
People
are
eligible
very
quickly.
It
doesn't
need
to
be
accrued
like
I
mentioned.
I
think
you
only
need
to
learn,
earn
twenty
five
hundred
dollars
and
then
you're
eligible
for
12
weeks
of
paid
leave
and
again
it
can't
be
required
to
use
your
other
leap
first.
So
when
you
come
out
of
it,
you
still
have
leave
that
you
can
use
for
whatever
it
is.
That's
coming
up
and
I.
D
D
So,
to
me,
these
feel
like
exactly
the
employees
that
we
really
want
to
be
encouraging
and
enabling
to
participate
in
this
program.
So
I
would
really
love
to
you
know
four
or
five
months
from
now
have
a
discussion.
Well
before
we
get
to
our
budget
discussions
and
understand
what
can
we
do
and
how
can
we
include
this
because
I
really
want
to
see
workers
have
leave
it's
important
thanks.
B
For
that
Nicole
before
I
call
on
my
cell
phone
Nuria,
do
you
want
to
throw
in
a
thought,
yeah.
W
Thanks
so
much
mayor
and
I
just
wanted
to
appreciate
David
and
his
team
for
all
the
work
that
they've
done
around
this
and
wanted
to
just
share
some
thoughts
as
you're
thinking
about
this
too
and
first
one
to
say
that
we
so
appreciate
the
thoughts
about
our
temp
and
seasonal
employees.
We
also
want
to
make
sure
that
we
are
an
employer
of
choice.
W
That
also
means
for
our
temp
and
seasonal
workers,
we're
taking
that
very
seriously,
and
while
we
know
that
anyone
can
opt
into
the
program
and
that
would
include
our
temp
and
seasonal
workers,
we're
also
trying
on
staff
side
to
really
think
about
what
does
that
look
like
going
forward?
How
do
we
continue
to
add
and
think
about
retention
protections
and
move
that?
So
it
is
something
that
we
continue
to
think
about.
W
W
We
are
looking
at
all
those
sort
of
Economic
and
the
total
rewards
package
that
we
offer
as
a
city,
so
we'll
be
continuing
to
bring
that
forward
as
we
move
on
and
I
think
what's
interesting
about
this
particular
program
as
it
as
we're
continuing
to
learn
more
about
it,
which
is
the
other
thing
that
perhaps
gives
one
pause
and
I
know
that
many
other
cities
are
opting
out
as
well.
But
part
of
that
is
also
just
thinking
about
what
are
the
new
guidelines
as
those
are
moving
forward.
W
Additional
analysis
monitor
the
program
as
that
moves
forward,
and
nothing
precludes
us
from
coming
back
next
year
and
answering
these
questions
and
rethinking
again
what
that
looks
like,
because
none
of
our
intent
is
to
ever
leave
any
of
our
employees
behind,
but
also
wanting
to
make
sure
that
we're
thinking
about
what
does
that
look
like
as
we
move
forward
and
then
the
last
thing
I'll
say
is
and
and
council
member
Joseph's
point
I
want
to
appreciate
her
comments
as
well.
This
would
still
require
us
to
administer
a
program
there's
some
reporting
requirements.
W
If
we've
opted
in
some
remittance
that
we
would
have
to
do
so,
it
would
still
have
some
additional
sort
of
administrative
costs
in
a
pro
program
that
we
yet
don't
know
how
that's
going
to
work.
But
what
I
hope
is
clear
from
us
and
I
hope
that
we're
that
you
see
that
we
are
aligned
with
you
is
that
we
also
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
taking
considerations
for
our
Temp
and
seasonal
workers
as
well.
It's
important
as
we
continue
to
to
be
that
employer
of
choice.
B
Thanks
for
that,
Nuria
and
I'll
go
ahead
and
call
on
myself.
Here's
I
thought
that
was
very
helpful
and
my
thoughts
align
well
with
Nicole's
I,
think
in
terms
of
I,
think
I
think
for
our
full-time
employees.
I
think
we
have
an
absolutely
exemplary
benefits
package.
That
is,
you
know
in
general,
most
respects
better
than
the
the
family
options,
and
there
is
a
non-trivial
amount
of
money
associated
with
this,
but
for
our
temporary
non
and
seasonal
non-full-time
employees.
That
I
think
there
is
a
gap
here
right
they
would.
B
They
would
benefit
more
from
this
program
than
that
they
would
get
a
better
substantial
benefit
from
this
program,
and
so
I
thought
Nicole's
points
about
and
Nuri
is
about
taking
some
time
and
really
looking
at
where
the
gaps
are
and
how
we
can
potentially
plug
those
gaps
and
thinking
about
coming
back
next
year.
Looking
at
this
again,
hard
I
think
part
of
the
struggle
right
now
is
that
this
program
has
not
been
fully
defined
in
terms
of
its
operating
parameters
right
next
year.
B
We'll
know
those
much
better
and
we
can
look
at
what
all
our
alternatives
are
for
for
those
part-time
folks
and
see
how
we
could
plug
that
Gap
into
Rachel's
point.
You
know.
Maybe
there
are
creative
things
that
we
could
do
in
terms
of
cost
sharing.
You
know
for
for
those
employees
to
participate
in
in
this
program,
but
it's
I
think
it's
still
a
little
unclear
how
that
might
all
work
so
I'm,
I'm,
okay,
with
moving
forward
with
this
tonight,
but
I,
think
we
should
not
for
sure
leave
this
for
eight
years.
B
This
should
be
something
we
should
be
looking
at
closely
in
the
upcoming
months
and
come
back
next
year
and
consider
you
know:
is
there
some?
Maybe
we
do
participate
in
2024
or
maybe
instead
there's
ways
that
we
plug
some
of
these
gaps
so
that
that
would
be
my
thoughts.
I
got
Lauren.
AD
Thank
you,
Aaron
yeah,
I
I'm
in
agreement
with
a
lot
of
what
you
just
laid
out.
I
think
that
for
me
reading
comments
from
city
employees
was
pretty
impactful.
You
know
Nana,
even
though
you
did
Outreach
to
the
entire
organization.
We
really
didn't
see
a
lot
of
feedback
that
said
that
people
really
wanted
to
see
this
implemented.
What,
instead,
we
saw
was
a
lot
of
comments
about
or
several
comments
about,
some
gaps
existing
gaps
that
while
they
would
be
addressed
by
this
program,
there
might
be
more
efficient
ways
for
us
to
do
that.
AD
So
I
would
really
like
to
see
us
either
kind
of
look
at
a
program
like
Rachel
was
discussing
about
trying
to
incentivize.
AD
People
for
whom
this
program
makes
a
lot
of
sense
being
able
to
join,
or
perhaps,
in
addition,
looking
at
kind
of
long
term,
how
we
might
modify
our
existing
programs
to
either
cover
the
gap
or
so
that,
if
we
did
implement
this
program,
that
there
wouldn't
be
so
much
overlap
and
that
we
might
benefit
from
reducing
some
of
our
programs
and
other
areas
to
balance
everything
out.
AE
Yeah
I
agree
with
most
of
what
you
all
have
said
just
wanted
to
clarify,
or
do
we
have
a
firm
date
of
when
this
would
come
back
to
us,
because
I
think
that
all
what
you're?
What
we're
hearing
is
that
we're
all
concerned
that
we're
leaving
some
people
behind,
and
we
don't
want
to
do
that,
and
we
definitely
don't
want
to
do
it
for
like
a
whole
extra
year.
If
we
don't
get
to
it
in
time
to
to
jump
on
board.
AE
If
that's
what
we
decide,
we
want
to
do
or
make
sure
that
we're
offering
easy
ways
for
people
to
opt
in.
So
is
this
something
that,
for
those
of
us
who
are
on
the
fence-
and
you
know
are-
are
maybe
some
reluctantly
agreeing
to
opt
out?
Could
we
get
a
firm
date
of
when
we
will
get
to
look
at
this
again.
B
AE
B
D
Can
I
just
and
I'm
just
wondering,
because
I'm
I'm
not
totally
comfortable
I,
want
to
make
sure
that,
if
we're
opting
out
completely,
employees
still
have
the
choice
and
so
I'm?
Looking
at
the
options
that
you
presented
Us
in
the
agenda
item
and
it
looks
like
we
have
the
opt-out,
completely
decline,
employer
participation
and
then
participate
for
the
decline.
Employer
participation
is
that
what
we're
talking
about
with
we
as
a
city
would
not
participate
in
it
for
this
next
year.
A
AB
M
D
B
AE
AE
B
E
B
Okay
and
then
I'm
going
to
speak
to
my
motion
if
I
may,
which
is
that
I
think
you've
heard
the
comments
from
us
tonight
right
so
I
think
the
there's
some
I
think
as
I
said
before,
we
have
an
exemplary
benefits
package
right,
but
not
everybody
gets
access
to
every
piece
of
it.
I
think
we've
given
a
lot
of
feedback
to
look
at
how
we
address
those
gaps,
so
I
trust
when
you,
when
you
say
you're,
going
to
look
at
that
and
we're
going
to
come
back
in
May
to
look
at.
B
You
know
how
we
might
address
those
and
think
about
whether
we
might
consider
participating
in
a
future
year.
So
I
just
want
to
make
sure
for
everybody.
Before
we
vote
that
we
have
commitments
from
staff
to
investigate
all
of
those
things
and
come
back
to
us
in
May
agreed
great
Mark.
Did
you
want
to
speak
to
the
second
at
all.
E
No
I
think
we've
outlined
a
clear
plan
of
action.
You've
heard
our
concerns
about
the
seasonal
employees
and
you're,
going
to
have
some
lead
time
to
develop
suggestions
and
programs
for
us
and
I
look
forward
to
hearing
them.
B
C
G
C
P
B
B
Okay
right:
well,
thanks
very
much
David.
You
didn't
get
an
easy
one
on
your
first
time
in
front
of
council,
but
I
appreciate
all
of
your
excellent
answers
and
willingness
to
look
into
next
steps.
So
yeah
appreciate
the
collaboration
all
right.
That
concludes
our
public
hearings
and
we
now
have
one
matter
from
the
city
manager
to
look
at.
C
W
Thanks
so
much
Council,
this
is
an
update.
I
know
that
we
had
a
conversation
about
this
last
year,
an
additional
conversation
today,
I'm
gonna,
throw
it
to
Chris,
Jones
or
interim
director
of
community
Vitality,
but
I'll
say
that
the
bulk
of
the
presentation
will
be
given
by
Sam
Bromberg,
who
is
new.
This
is
her
first
presentation
to
council,
so
please
be
nice.
AF
Good
evening
Council,
thank
you
so
much
for
having
myself
and
Samantha
here
this
evening.
We
are
glad
to
be
back
to
share
with
you
our
one
year
update
for
those
of
you
of
you
that
were
on
Council
a
year
ago,
you'll
recall
that
there
was
support
for
three
key
strategies
under
amp's
access
management
and
parking
strategy,
performance-based
pricing
for
our
on-street
parking
system,
priority-based,
neighborhood,
access
management,
taking
a
look
at
parking
challenges
in
residential
areas
and
then
graduated
and
safety
Mobility
fines.
AF
So
these
are
three
three
key
strategies
that
Council
expressed
support
for
last
year
with
the
2022
budget
process.
There
was
also
support
for
hiring
a
human,
a
fixed
term
position
to
help
us
Implement
those
strategies
and
that
lucky
lucky
human
is
Sam,
and
so
we're
so
happy
to
have
her
on
the
community,
Vitality
team
and
she's
here
to
share
the
good
work
that
she's
been
pursuing
for
the
past
year
and
looking
forward
to
having
discussed
session
with
you
all
after
this
presentation.
So
with
that
I'll
end
it
over
to
Sam.
AG
AG
Before
we
get
into
the
presentation,
here's
a
brief
overview
of
what
you'll
be
hearing
about
tonight,
we'll
start
with
a
refresher
on
the
work
that
has
led
up
to
this
point
and
then
we'll
get
into
staff's
recommendation
for
performance-based
pricing.
The
work
done
to
date
to
build
the
new
residential
access
management
program,
staff's
proposed
Trail
access
management
work
and
what
the
next
steps
are
for
these
initiatives.
We'll
then
have
some
time
for
questions
about
the
work
and
for
discussion
on
the
requested
feedback
from
Council.
AG
The
community
played
an
integral
role
in
developing
and
refining
strategies
for
parking
pricing
and
permitting,
through
a
variety
of
Engagement
methods
between
polls
and
questionnaires.
Meeting
with
Community
organizations
boards
and
commissions
over
8
700
members
of
the
broad
Boulder
Community,
with
many
varying
viewpoints,
participated
in
the
process.
AG
Ultimately,
three
strategies
emerged
as
the
best
ways
to
reflect
the
amp's
vision
and
goals.
The
three
identified
strategies
were
performance-based
pricing,
graduated
and
safety,
Mobility
fines
and
priority-based
neighborhood
access
management
in
January
of
2022.
The
first
steps
were
taken
towards
implementation
of
performance-based
pricing
and
graduated
in
safety.
Mobility
fines
were
fully
implemented
today,
we'll
be
talking
about
the
next
steps
for
performance-based
pricing
and
the
work
completed
to
implement
priority-based
neighborhood
access
management,
a
strategy
which
is
the
basis
for
the
new
residential
access
management
program
or
ramp.
AG
Before
we
launch
into
these
topics,
let's
review,
why
managing
parking
is
necessary,
make
sure
you're,
self-driving
somewhere
and
looking
for
a
parking
spot
close
to
your
destination,
but
finding
block
after
block
completely
full
of
cars.
Congested
parking
has
a
social
cost
greater
than
the
inconvenience
of
losing
time
trying
to
find
a
space,
the
act
of
driving
around
looking
for
parking
crates
and
environmental
impact,
adding
extra
vehicle
miles,
traveled
or
VMT
to
any
trip
which
emits
additional
greenhouse
gases.
AG
AG
One
measure
of
effective
parking
management
is
parking
occupancy.
So
what
is
parking
occupancy?
Imagine
these
rows
of
cars
of
Cur
are
curb
spaces.
The
top
curb
is
100
occupied.
There
are
no
available
spaces.
The
middle
curb
is
just
over
85
percent
occupied,
there's
one
space,
but
depending
on
how
other
cars
have
parked,
it
may
be
tough
to
access.
The
bottom
curb
is
60
occupied
plenty
of
available
spaces
for
performance-based
pricing.
The
targeted
occupancy
is
somewhere
between
the
Middle
curb
and
the
bottom
curb
or
60
to
85
percent
occupancy.
AG
Performance-Based
pricing
entails
looking
at
existing
supply
and
demand
of
on-street
parking
and
adjusting
pricing
accordingly
to
better
distribute
parking
across
the
available
space
by
pricing.
The
in-demand
blocks
higher.
We
can
encourage
turnover
and
reduce
cruising
behavior
of
vehicles.
Looking
for
parking,
the
intent
is
to
provide
a
suite
of
parking
options
to
the
community,
so
each
Parker
can
prioritize
parking
price,
location
and
availability
based
on
their
unique
needs
and
resources.
AG
The
strategy
relies
on
key
performance
indicators
to
reflect
the
parking,
behaviors
and
adjust
pricing
as
a
reaction
to
parking
demands.
Implementation
of
performance-based
pricing
is
expected
to
reduce
overall
VMT
in
Boulder
support
increases
in
transit
usage,
increase,
TDM
investment
and
access
for
active
Transportation
modes
like
walking
and
biking
on
high
demand
streets.
This
slide
shows
an
excerpt
from
the
new
city
manager
role,
which
introduces
the
regulations
for
performance-based.
AG
O
AF
AG
Trying
to
get
to
notes
yeah,
there's
data
missing
from
the
municipal
loss
between
Canyon
and
Arapahoe,
due
to
a
suspension
of
temporary
suspension
of
the
employee
parking
program
through
December
of
2022.
Z
AG
The
1400
block
of
Juana
on
the
north
side
of
the
RTD
Station
downtown
is
missing.
Data
from
a
coin
meter
head
that
was
removed
during
the
study
period
and
the
1700
block
of
15th
Street
is
currently
impacted
by
construction
activity.
Staff
recommend
no
price
changes
to
these
areas,
including
those
Municipal
Lots
between
Canyon
and
Arapahoe.
Until
future,
data
can
be
collected.
AG
In
a
push
to
take
abroad
and
active
approach
to
managing
parking
and
Mobility
Behavior,
the
residential
access
management
program
or
ramp
was
introduced
to
the
revitalizing
access
and
Boulder
work
to
build
and
expand
upon
the
existing
neighborhood
parking
permit
program.
Ramp-Like
performance-based
pricing
takes
a
data
different
approach
to
manage
parking
in
our
residential
neighborhoods.
AG
The
previous
neighborhood
parking
permit
program
initiated
in
20
1994
created
the
13
zones
that
exist
today.
Most
zones
allow
users
without
a
permit
to
park
for
a
limited
time,
typically,
between
two
and
three
hours
once
per
day,
the
program's
intent
was
to
manage
spillover
parking
from
activity.
Centers
like
downtown
into
surrounding
neighborhoods
zones
were
created
or
expanded
through
a
citizen-driven
petition
process,
followed
by
a
city
review
and
a
public
hearing.
The
displayed
map
shows
the
Whittier
NPP
Zone.
AG
Over
the
past
year,
staff
have
been
busy
building
the
ramp
program
from
the
ground
up,
starting
with
the
parking
management
strategies
which
can
be
utilized
under
ramp,
and
the
annual
city-wide
assessment
staff
collected
parking
occupancy
data
from
38
unique
study
areas
containing
over
a
thousand
block
faces
this
being
a
new
program
and
having
never
conducted
data
collection
on
this
scale,
staff
turned
to
a
consultant
for
help
with
the
data
analysis
to
understand
the
trends
of
parking
occupancy.
The
data
was
analyzed
by
season
day
of
week
and
time
of
day,
resulting
in
12
categories.
AG
In
each
category
the
maps
display
the
peak
or
highest
observed
occupancy.
These
occupancy
Trends
will
help
staff
and
the
public
understand
when
these
areas
are
most
utilized.
The
end
result
is
a
tremendous
amount
of
data
which
will
help
inform
decision
making
and
help
staff
track
occupancy
Trends
over
the
years
to
come.
AG
Staff
have
only
just
begun
to
study
the
results
from
this
first
year
of
data
collection,
but
found
that
overall,
the
existing
npps
assist
in
keeping
parking
utilization
below
85
percent
in
the
managed
zones.
Certain
blocks
within
existing
npps
have
Peak
utilization
above
85
percent,
mostly
in
the
transitional
areas
such
as
the
residential
blocks
surrounding
downtown.
AG
These
high
occupancy
areas
will
continue
to
be
flagged
as
priority
B.
It's
priority
a
to
determine
if
additional
management
strategies
are
needed.
Staff
also
noted
that
the
blocks
just
surrounding
several
of
the
existing
npps
were
flagged
as
being
highly
utilized
and
indicate
that
several
existing
npps
may
need
to
have
their
current
boundaries
evaluated
to
determine
if
any
changes
are
recommended.
AG
Here
we
can
see
the
key
metrics
for
what
thresholds
need
to
be
met
for
staff,
to
consider
adding
a
new
managed
parking
zone
or
adding
blocks
to
an
existing
managed
parking
Zone.
The
metrics
include
parking
occupancy,
visitation
zoning
barriers
to
movement
and
Resident
petition.
If
any
existing
zones
do
not
meet
key
thresholds
for
three
years
in
a
row,
they
may
be
identified
by
staff
for
termination.
AG
AG
I
will
now
show
an
example
of
the
study
results
from
an
existing
NPP
Zone,
and
its
surrounding
blocks
here
is
a
sample
of
the
results
from
the
current
Whittier
NPP
Zone
from
a
typical
summer,
weekday
between
3
and
9
pm.
Note
that
overall,
the
parking
occupancy
is
between
50
to
70
percent,
which
is
in
the
optimal
range,
but
that
some
blocks
closer
to
downtown
have
a
much
higher
occupancy
and
might
benefit
from
additional
parking
management
strategies.
AG
This
map
shows
the
results
from
the
unmanaged
Block
just
outside
of
the
current
Whittier
NPP.
These
results
are
from
Summer
weekdays
between
5
and
11.
Am
we
can
see
that
there
is
parking
spillover
on
several
of
these
blocks?
This
data
would
suggest
that
we
should
take
a
closer
look
at
this
area,
including
expanding
the
scope
of
the
study
to
additional
nearby
blocks.
AG
The
original
NPP
program
assessed
the
need
for
new
NPP
zones
and
extensions
of
existing
zones
based
solely
through
the
process
of
Resident
petition
under
ramp
residents,
can
still
request
that
their
neighborhood
be
studied
for
possible
inclusion
in
a
new
or
existing
NPP
blocks.
Identify
through
the
petition
process
are
automatically
prioritized
for
study
to
determine
whether
any
parking
mitigation
may
be
necessary
between
the
years
of
2019
and
2022.
While
the
staff
the
city
was
developing
ramp,
three
separate
resident
petitions
were
received
for
NPP
expansions.
AG
The
first
two
petitioned
areas
did
not
meet
the
required
metrics
for
implementation
of
an
NPP
following
are
the
results
from
the
petition
East
Aurora
NPP
expansion
for
the
petition
700
through
800
blocks
of
31st
through
38th
Street.
We
found
Peak
occupancy
during
fall
to
Spring
weekdays
during
the
hours
of
11
A.M
and
3
P.M
at
57
percent.
AG
The
50
57
percent
Peak
is
aggregated
across
all
the
blocks
in
the
petitioned
area.
However,
as
is
shown
on
the
map,
some
blocks
peaked
at
over
85
percent.
While
others
were
below
50
percent
visitation
to
the
area
accounted
for
24
of
all
parked
Vehicles,
which
is
just
below
the
recommended
25
percent.
The
data
suggests
that
this
area
May
benefit
from
managed
parking.
AG
Historically,
most
neighborhood
parking
permit
zones
have
been
near
traffic
generating
destinations
such
as
downtown
that
already
offer
alternative
modes
of
arrival
beyond
the
personal
vehicle
as
ramp
expands
its
approach
to
look
at
access.
Citywide,
the
neighborhoods
adjacent
to
highly
utilized
osmp
land
should
be
studied.
AG
In
2022,
osmp
staff
helped
identify
a
list
of
eight
trailheads
and
access
point
areas
based
on
visitation
and
mode
of
arrival
data
within
walking
distance
to
residential
neighborhoods
and
city
limits.
These
staff
identified
locations
were
included
in
a
preliminary
ramp
study
to
determine
whether
there
are
significant
parking
impacts
on
the
surrounding
neighborhoods.
AG
Overall,
the
initial
results
rate
most
Trail
access
areas
would
lower
optimal
parking
utilization.
By
creating
this
interdepartmental
work
group,
we
can
further
study
these
results
to
understand
whether
what
other
relevant
studies
or
data
should
be
accounted
for
and
studying
these
Trail
areas,
as
well
as
factoring
Community
concerns,
frequently
heard
from
some
of
these
areas.
AG
Here
we
can
see
the
cinitas
and
Dakota
Ridge
areas.
There
are
10
access
points
in
addition
to
the
Centennial
Trailhead,
which
service
this
area.
Overall,
occupancy
levels
are
between
50
to
70
percent.
At
Peak
observed
times,
though,
certain
blocks
are
much
higher
than
others,
especially
those
closest
to
the
Centennial
trailhead.
AG
The
recently
published
osmp
phase,
one
and
two
parking
studies
identified,
Centennial
Trailhead
as
having
the
second
highest
relative
average
percentage
occupancy
of
ultra
Hood
Lots,
with
only
Chautauqua
having
a
higher
occupancy
based
on
its
capacity.
The
study
found
that
57
of
vehicles
that
entered
the
lot
were
turned
away
during
Peak
periods.
AG
The
camp
evaluation
should
be
wrapping
up
by
the
fall
of
2023
Lessons
Learned
From
The
Pilot
will
help
inform
how
we
can
scale
down
effective,
Management
Solutions
to
less
impacted
areas.
The
work
group
will
then
develop
recommended
strategies
and
framework
for
addressing
Trail
spillover
into
residential
areas
based
on
measured
impacts.
AG
The
next
steps
for
performance-based
pricing
and
ramp
include
the
development
of
a
Communications
plan
to
inform
the
public
of
the
upcoming
changes.
The
scheduled
fee
increase
for
residential
and
commuter
parking
permits,
the
introduction
of
a
discounted
residential
parking
permit
for
income
qualified
residents.
AG
Some
of
the
highlights
of
the
feedback
we
received
are
synthesized
on
this
slide.
Overall,
most
boards
and
commissions
were
supportive
of
staff's
recommendations
and
work.
To
date,
staff
heard
a
suggestion
for
other
curbside
uses
for
tier
3
blocks
under
performance-based
pricing.
Instead
of
lowering
pricing.
AG
Some
concerns
that
were
heard
for
ramp
included
the
speed
of
cost
recovery
for
the
program,
the
price
difference
between
residential
and
commuter
permits
and
a
desire
for
more
flexibility,
as
it
relates
to
permit
issuance
and
removal
of
underperforming
zones
for
trail
access
management.
A
concern
was
voiced
about
Equitable
Trail
access
for
all
community
members.
AG
B
Great
well
Sam
thanks
so
much
for
that
and
great
to
have
you
here
for
the
first
time
good
to
have
you
on
the
team,
thanks
for
all
the
work
that
you're
doing
so
questions
for
staff
before
we
go
to
answering
their
questions
for
us,
Tara.
F
Wasn't
I
was
on
Chautauqua
access
management
plan,
as
everybody
knows,
because
when
you
did
all
those
forms
with
me,
I
mentioned
it
like
a
thousand
times,
but
it
was
why
I'm
here
today
right
because
it
was
such
a
great
experience
to
be
in
that
working
group
that
I
loved
it.
Even
though
a
lot
of
people
in
the
neighborhoods
did
complain,
I'm
not
gonna
lie,
but
that's
a
whole
nother
story,
not
use
fed,
because
you
were
awesome
just
to
be
clear.
F
F
B
F
AG
AF
So
a
little
bit
more
detail
on
that,
thanks,
Sam.
So,
and
thanks
for
the
question
the
pilot
was
established
for
five
years,
allowing
for
two
years
for
evaluation
data
has
been
collected
every
year
of
the
program.
We
have
extensive
data,
nothing
that
we've
collected
so
far,
suggesting
that
it
has
not
been
successful
yay,
and
so
what
we're
really
wanting
to
do
is
build
on
the
good
things
that
we
learned
from
the
program
we'll
be
working
with
transportation
and
mobility
and
open
space
and
Mountain
parks
in
2023
to
codify
the
program.
AF
F
We
had
we
had,
we
put
meters
in
and
we
added
neighborhood
parking
program
and
we
had
a
lot
of
community
feedback
from
all
the
neighborhoods.
And
so
that's
one
of
the
reasons
why
we're
glad
you're
here
tonight
as
one
of
the
few
remaining
community
members
tonight.
So
we
get
to
hear
this
soon
because.
AF
M
E
Swayed
Vengeance
will
be
mine
with
respect
to
tier
one.
Is
your
objective
to
get
people
to
look
for
parking
on
other
blocks
or
you're
trying
to
get
them
out
of
their
cars
entirely?
What's
the
goal.
AG
Yes,
so
the
the
goal
is
to
have
higher
prices
on
certain
blocks.
If
community
members
know
that
they
can
find
less
less
expensive
parking
elsewhere,
then
they'll
seek
it
out
elsewhere.
Not
everyone
will
will
know
this,
but
we
really
only
need
one
or
two
people
per
block
to
change
their
behavior.
In
order
for
this
to
work,
the
idea
is
to
have
at
least
one
or
two
Open
Spaces
on
each
block,
so
that
people
looking
for
parking
aren't
cruising
around.
AG
They
can
simply
find
a
space,
so
those
who
know
about
it
will
be
able
to
go
to
the
places
they
know
are
less
expensive.
Like
our
garages,
which
have
a
static
rate,
that's
that's
lower
and
then
those
that
don't
might
end
up
paying
the
higher
rate,
but
then
maybe
they'll
figure
it
out,
while
they're
there
and
realize
that
next
time
they
can
change
their
behavior.
E
AG
That's
an
interesting
question,
I
think,
but.
AG
It
might,
it
might
be,
there's
there's
a
number
of
different
ways
that
we
can
communicate
the
pricing
tiers
to
folks
and
so
I.
Don't
know
how
closely
people
will
be
paying
attention
to
the
signage
as
they're
looking
for
the
space
initially.
AG
But
we
have
other
ways
of
communicating
to
folks
ahead
of
time
what
to
expect
when
they
come
downtown
for
parking.
And
so
that's
what
we're
hoping
to
capture
or
to
inform
some
of
those.
Some
of
those
folks
and.
E
AG
Well,
we
are
raising
fees
in
areas,
but
we're
also
lowering
fees
in
other
areas,
which
is
also
controversial
in
its
own
right.
But
there
are
options
for
Parkers
depending
on
what
they
want
to
prioritize.
So
if
they're
looking
for
a
less
expensive
option,
they
can
park
further
out
or
look
for
space
in
one
of
our
garages
and
walk
to
their
destination.
E
AF
I
will
add
a
big
component
as
you've
been
alluding.
To
is
education
of
the
number
of
options
that
we
do
make
available
specifically
for
employees
who
need
longer
term
parking.
What
we
really
want
to
do
is
is
encourage
them
to
use
the
garages
at
the
lower
rate
or
the
three
dollar
product
for
evening
shift
workers.
We
also
have
the
dollar
25
per
day
parking
permit
for
the
Alpine
Balsam
garage.
That
does
require
to
use
your
Eco
pass
to
get
to
downtown.
We
have
developed
a
lot
of
products.
B
You
weren't
even
mean
I've
got
Junior,
then
Rachel.
X
Thanks
for
being
here
earlier,
I
was
missing
for
a
little
bit
for
good
reasons.
I
will
not
tell
you
more,
but
I
just
wanted
to
know
if
by
any
chance
you
earlier
talked
about
how
communities
can
get
into
the
program
the
parking
program
because
of
or
Community
member
here
he
was
having
concerns
with
Spiel
over
from
people
who
are
at
Shanahan.
Thank
you,
Shanahan
Ridge
Trail,
who
this
bill
over
into
his
community.
So
how
can
we
help
alleviate
that,
or
also
what
are
some
of
the
enforcement
mechanism?
AG
Foreign,
thank
you
for
that
question.
Yeah.
So,
in
the
building
of
the
ramp
program,
staff
realize
that
the
the
previous
city
manager
role
did
not
allow
for
him
for
managing
parking
near
Community
use
lands
on
the
weekends,
and
so
that
was
the
impetus
for
the
trial
access
management
work
was
we.
We
recognized
that
if
we
can't
manage
parking
on
weekends,
we're
not
going
to
be
able
to
provide
a
benefit
to
neighborhoods
like
like
Lehigh
and
Shanahan
Ridge,
and
so,
but
because
it's
Community
use
lands.
AG
We
also
know
that
there's
special
requirements
for
Equitable
access
to
those
areas
which
are
public
use
areas,
and
so
that's
why
we
create
that's.
Why
we're
recommending
this
Trail
access
management
work
group
is
so
that
we
can
come
up
with
a
pro,
an
approach
that
accounts
for
both
parking
management
and
also
access
to
to
those
special
places.
AG
And
if,
once
that
work
is
complete,
then
hopefully
there
will
be
a
a
petition
process
based
on
those
thresholds
that
that
we're
measuring
every
year
with
the
annual
city-wide
study,
so
that
those
those
areas
that
meet
those
thresholds
can
petition
in
and
we
can.
We
can
come
up
with
those
solutions
for
the
existing
ramp
program
for
areas
that
are
not
a
budding
or
adjacent
to
community
uses.
We
already
have
this
program
in
place,
and
so
once
the
once,
the
area
meets
all
those
thresholds
and
we
do
have
the
petition.
AG
AF
Thanks
Sam
and
I
want
to
also
point
to
our
enforcement
program
does
regularly
try
to
get
to
the
Shanahan
Ridge
area.
This
is
one
of
the
challenges
with
the
the
neighborhood
parking
permit
program,
as
it
currently
exists
is
the
farther
away.
The
neighborhoods
are
the
more
challenging
it
is
for
a
fix
team
to
get
out
to
the
edges
of
town,
so
it
is
part
of
the
consideration
as
we.
If
we
are
going
to
consider
expanding
residential
residential
access
management
program
and
having
more
neighborhoods
with
more
regulations,
we
do
need
to
be
thinking
about.
AE
Thanks
thanks
for
the
great
presentation
too
so
yeah
I'm
sticking
with
the
trail
access
management
and
my
point
of
view,
I
guess
is-
is
maybe
different
than
than
some
of
my
colleagues.
AE
I
live
somewhere,
where
I
have
to
basically
cross
highways
to
get
to
open
space
like
I,
can't
walk
out
my
door
and
go
somewhere,
lovely,
so
I'm,
more
concerned
or
equally
concerned,
maybe
about
ensuring
that
people
who
do
have
to
drive
to
Trails
or
bike
to
Trails,
and
some
people
really
have
to
drive
because
they're
far,
if
you're
planning
to
hike
have
good
access,
I've
been
at
a
at
Shanahan
Ranch,
Lehigh
area
and
and
been
chased
off
from
parking
in
places.
AE
That
I
think
are
legal
by
people
who
didn't
didn't
like
me,
parking
there.
So
one
question
I
have
is
do
we
are
we
looking
at?
Also
signage
that
says:
hey
you
can
park
here
and
I
was
with
one
of
you,
a
colleague
when
that
happened
to
me
once
so.
Somebody
could
vouch
for
me
if
they
wanted
to,
but
it's
not
just
making
sure
that
residents
have
parking,
but
also
people
who
who
have
equal
right
to
that
land.
Can
access
it,
so
that's
one
question
is
sort
of
for
signage
that
we're
looking
at.
AG
Yeah,
that's
an
interesting
question
and
I
will
say
part
of
the
trail.
Access
management
work
is
to
ensure
that
there
is
a
corresponding
travel
Transportation
demand
management
plan
in
place
for
those
areas
so
that
there's
other
access
options,
but
with
the
implementation
of
any
parking
management,
for
example,
in
an
NPP
enabled
parking
permit
Zone,
we
usually
do
put
up
signage.
That
has
those
regulations
for
where
you
can
park
and
for
how
long
and
under
what
conditions.
And
then
we
also
have
signs
that
point
to
where
you
can't
park.
AE
Okay,
well
we'll
get
to
comments
later,
but
maybe
I'd
be
super
unexcited
about
a
program
that
makes
it
harder
for
people
who
don't
live,
adjacent
to
open
space,
to
use
open
space
and
then.
AE
My
second
question
is
in
the
memo
talks
about
Trail
access
management
and
osmp
participating
in
the
next
stage
of
that
or
phase
of
looking
at
that
and
I
I
have
just
one
concern
which
is
I
was
advocating
to
get
with
the
sort
of
the
the
city
to
look
at
being
part
of
the
County's
shuttle
that
goes
from
Chautauqua
to
El,
El
Dorado
and
wanting
a
stop
at
I
think
it
was
South,
Mesa,
Trailhead
and
osmp
that
the
feedback
I
got
was
that
there
were
concerns
that
it
might
increase.
AE
AE
If
we
cut
out
the
people
who
would
shuttle
there
and
we'd
cut
down
parking
spaces
there,
who
can
use
open
space,
it's
it's
really
as
far
as
I
can
tell
people
who
have
money
to
live
right,
near
open
space
and
so
I'm,
very
skeptical
of
us
just
having
it.
Maybe
inviting
into
that
conversation
the
lens
of
of
reducing
numbers,
possibly
on
open
space,
because
that
is
what
happened
in
the
one
area
I'm
aware
of
where
parking
and
and
shuttles
and
open
space
intersected.
AE
So
I
wanted
to
understand
how
why
open
space
and
who
else
is,
is
maybe
going
to
be
invited
into
that
conversation
to
make
sure
that
that
there's
a
real,
strong
focus
on
on
equity
and
our
our
transportation
goals.
B
AG
Yeah
and
so
that's
why
transportation
and
Mobility
would
be
part
of
the
trail.
Access
management
work
group
is
to
to
lead
up
the
the
TDM
management
side
of
things
so
that
we
have
a
plan
for
Access.
Tdm
strategies
can
involve
anything
as
elaborate
as
a
shuttle
like
the
Chautauqua
shuttle,
but
they
could
be
much
smaller
strategies
as
well
like
providing
additional
access
for
for
bike
storage
and
things
like
that.
So
they
come
at
all.
It
comes
in
all
sizes
and
shapes
and
formats.
AG
AE
AF
Yeah
and
I
would
add
that,
on
top
of
putting
this
work
group
together
again,
we
are
leading
out
with
the
camp
evaluation.
So
it
really
is
a
great
example
that
we
already
have
in
our
community
of
a
high
demand,
Trail
area
where
these
questions
were
posed,
and
there
was
a
lot
of
work
and
resources
allocated
to
make
sure
that
we
were
able
to
to
provide
equal
access
to
the
radius
extent
possible.
If
there's
more,
that,
we
need
to
be
doing
in
Chautauqua.
AD
So,
first
I
kind
of
wanted
to
touch
on
why
you're,
making
recommendations
for
reducing
costs
in
some
areas
is
that
my
initial
understanding
was
that
it
we're
mainly
trying
to
look
at
shifting
Behavior
so
that
that
the
areas
that
are
most
densely
parked
most
often
might
some
pressure
might
be
alleviated
and
so
that
people
aren't
doing
that.
Circling
the
block
thing
as
much
is
that
true,
is
that
why
we're
looking
at
also
reducing
prices
in
some
areas.
AF
Thanks
Lauren
for
the
question,
so
yes
in
the
introduction
of
performance-based
pricing
as
part
of
the
amps
Implement
implementation
strategy.
Last
year,
we
communicated
that
our
our
policy
approach
would
be
a
one
dollar
per
hour
floor
and
a
five
dollar
per
hour
ceiling
through
the
conversations
that
we've
been
having
this
year.
We
understand
that
there
might
be
some
desire
to
raise
the
floor
right
now.
AF
Our
our
rates
are
a
dollar
fifty
per
hour,
and
so,
with
these
changes
we
would
be
based
on
the
the
previous
conversations
that
we've
had
and
the
policy
that
we
discussed
last
year.
We
are
suggesting
that
we
would
reach
that
floor
with
some
specific
block
faces
in
town.
If
there
is
a
desire
to
revisit
that
floor,
we
can
certainly
explore
that,
if
that's
the
will
of
counsel
but
again,
the
dynamic
is
trying
to
make
sure
that
we're
educating
folks
on
where
they
can
get
affordable
parking.
AF
AD
Okay,
in
that
vein,
I
guess
I
was
wondering,
because
you
did
the
survey
looking
at
utilization
rates
and
then
we're
looking
at
pricing.
It
seems
like
purely
based
on
utilization
rates
in
turn,
like
I
guess,
I'm
wondering
if
the
places
where
we're
looking
at
reducing
fees
would
be
not
just
where
there's
lower
utilization
rates,
but
where
we
think
that
that
change
would
have
the
highest
impact
on
Behavior
has
any
thought
gone
into
making
changes,
Beyond
kind
of
what
what
the
data
shows
taking
that
kind
of
thinking
into
account
or.
AF
Well
so
first
I
just
want
to
say
you
know
what
we've
charged
Samantha
with
is
implementing
the
performance-based
pricing
strategy,
which
was
communicated
to
be
a
reflection
of
utilization
data,
and
so,
if
there
is
a
desire
to
take
a
different
approach,
I
just
want
and
I'm
having
a
little
bit
of
a
hard
time
getting
to
the
the
question
and
maybe
Sam.
If
there's
anything
you
want
to
add
but
I,
that's
what
we
charge
Sam
with
and
if
there's
a
different
direction
that
we
want
to
explore,
then
that
would
be
a
different
conversation.
AF
AG
And
just
to
add
to
that,
I
think
that
there's
still
a
way
to
to,
in
a
roundabout
way,
get
to
what
you're
saying
by
implementing
performance-based
pricing,
because
we
we're
going
to
be
keeping
track
of
this
utilization
data
year
over
year
and
so
we'll
see
those
changes
next
year
once
we
implement
the
new
pricing
and
then
we'll
change
the
pricing
again,
the
following
year
as
a
reaction
to
how
the
supply
and
demand
changes
and
so
I
think
that
you
know
by
using
utilization
data,
we'll
still
get
at
this
kind
of
Behavioral
shift
that
that
you're
asking
about-
and
hopefully
that's
helpful
context,
but
because,
because
it's
not
just
a
one-time
change,
this
is
a
a
program
that
will
monitor
this
utilization
data
annually
and
make
changes
annually.
AG
AD
Thank
you.
Another
question
that
I
have
is
around
garage
utilization
rates,
just
because
that's
sort
of
been
mentioned
as
where
we're
trying
to
one
of
the
places
we're
trying
to
get
people
to
move
to
and
I'm
wondering
if
they're.
If
we
have
data
on
when
those
are
full
and
if
they're
full
at
the
same
time
as
the
street
parking
and
like
are,
we
are
there
actually
places
that
people
can
park.
AF
Yes,
thanks
for
the
question
Lauren,
we
do
collect
and
keep
extensive
utilization
data
for
all
of
our
on-street
parking,
where
it's
paid,
as
well
as
garage
parking
right
now,
post
pandemic.
Given
the
the
date,
the
daytime
employees,
who
have
not
been
returning
full-time,
our
utilization
rates
average
about
50
56
percent
overall
for
all
garages.
The
spruce
garage
continues
to
be
prior
to
the
pandemic
and
continues
to
be
now
our
highest
utilized
garage.
AF
It
does
regularly
fill
up
primarily
on
weekends,
and
then
we
are
still
experiencing
Peak
utilization
in
both
on
street
and
garages
and
full
garages
around
Memorial
Day
weekend
with
the
Boulder
Boulder
Boulder
Creek
Festival,
big
events.
Parents
weekend
is
always
really
big,
so
we're
at
a
point
where,
fortunately,
our
garages
aren't
filling
up
every
day,
because
if
that's
the
conversation
we
were
having,
then
we'd
we'd
have
a
lot
more
to
be
talking
about
when
it
comes
to
providing
more
parking
or
trying
to
solve
more
traffic
congestion
challenges.
AD
Thank
you
and
then
moving
into
the
sort
of
Trailhead
management,
parking,
I,
guess
I'm
a
little
bit
unclear
as
to
the
need
that
we're
addressing
I
mean
I,
understand.
I,
live
in
Shanahan
Ridge
I
understand
that
there
are
a
number
of
people
who
come
and
park
at
the
trailheads,
particularly
on
weekends,
but
I.
Don't
know
that
that
the
Dynamics
are
quite
the
same
as
in
other
areas
where
we
have
managed
parking.
For
instance,
you
know
people
generally
aren't
running
errands.
AD
It's
not
the
kind
of
like
drop-off
parking
situation
that
we
see
downtown
and
also
in
terms
of
like
the
the
residential
parking
you
know
the
predominantly
in
neighbor
in
or
at
least
in
Shanahan
Ridge.
You
know
these
are
neighborhoods
where
every
you
know
the
housing
is
mostly
in
compliance
with
our
zoning.
That
requires
houses
to
provide
an
off-street
parking
stall,
and
so
it's
it
seems.
AD
Like
a
permit
system
for
residences,
where
parking
is
predominantly
provided
on
properties,
I
I'm
just
a
little
bit
Unsure
how
that
yeah
again,
what
the
need
is
exactly
that
we're
solving
for
and.
AD
AF
The
trailhead
thank
you
for
the
question,
Laura
and
I.
Think
that's
really
what
we're
posing
to
council
tonight,
as
we
do
understand
and
appreciate
that
there
are
parking
challenges.
There
are
hot
spots
around
the
city
associated
with
access
to
public
lands
and
we
want
to
we're
exploring
the
possibility
of
forming
this
ongoing
work
group
that
would
like
we've
done
with
Camp
around
the
Chautauqua
area.
Take
a
look
at
possible
Management
Solutions
and
that
balance
all
of
the
different
needs
and
challenges
for
residents
and
for
trail
visitors.
AF
If
that's
not
something
that
Council
would
like
us
to
be
exploring,
then
this
is
your
opportunity
to
tell
us-
and
we
have
plenty
of
other
parking
challenges
and
other
work
plan
items
that
we
can
be
exploring
outside
of
that.
But
we
do
know
that
there
are
members
of
the
community
that
have
continued
to
express
a
desired
for
not
just
an
enforcement
approach,
because
that's
really
been
our
our
approach
right
now
is
we
have
parking
rules.
AD
Thank
you
kind
of
following
up
on
that.
What
are
the
you
know?
We're
always
told
that
there
are
impacts
for
choosing
these
things
and
non-staff
timelines
and
thing.
You
know.
One
area
that
this
Council
has
seems
particularly
excited
about
is
the
implementation
of
the
can
program,
and
you
mentioned
that
some
of
this
would
be
through
Transportation
would
involve
Transportation.
So
would
there
be
impacts
on
how
quickly
we
could
Implement
things
like
the
can
program
if
we
decided
for
or
against
the
Trailhead
parking
program,.
AF
Just
you
know
it's
there.
It's
a
topic
that
we
all
have
different
passions
about
and
we're
going
to
continue
to
work
with
Transportation
Mobility
on
this,
whether
or
not
it's
part
of
trailer
access
management
or
other
work
plan
items,
but
over
time
perhaps
it
could
if
there
is
a
suggestion
that
we
want
to
start
a
shuttle
system
associated
with
Trails
across
the
city.
That
is
a
work
plan
item
that
could
be
contemplated
in
a
future
budget
cycle,
certainly
not
in
2023
so
more
to
come.
B
D
Question
about
the
work
group
for
the
trail
access
management.
Is
this
a
work
group
that
would
just
focus
on
parking,
because
one
of
the
things
that
I
often
hear
is
you
know
folks,
would
love
to
have
more
bike
parking,
for
example,
easier
access
to
the
trails
that
way
to
which
may
reduce
some
of
the
parking
demands.
So
I
was
just
wondering
about
the
scope
of
it.
B
F
F
One
of
the
things
we're
trying
to
do-
and
some
of
us
are
on
committees
to
make
the
downtown
more
welcoming,
for
instance,
like
Bob,
and
to
make
the
downtown
more
welcoming
to
all
skyrocketing
parking,
is
not
going
to
do
that
in
my
opinion,
so
to
have
alternatives
would
be
really
important
and,
besides
just
a
lot.
I
really
like
the
idea
of
lowering
the
parking
in
outside
areas.
I
know
anything
that
makes
somebody
say:
I
don't
want
to
go
downtown
is
something
the
business
Community
also
would
not
want.
F
F
It's
a
it's
a
it's
a
very
tight
path,
and
so
that's
why
I
liked
it
I
feel
like
you
really
did
talk
about
a
lot
of
different
things
and
even
though
I
really
don't
like
the
five
dollars
personally,
because
something
about
small
town
Boulder
where
you
can
just
go
downtown
and
it's
not
a
fortune
like,
for
instance,
in
Philly,
it
was
like
16
an
hour.
It
was
crazy.
It's
more
of
a
small
town
feel
here
and
I
like
to
keep
it
that
way,
but
I
understand
the
reason
for
doing
it
and
so
I
think.
F
H
Well,
I'll,
just
I'll
disagree
with
Tara
I
I
understand
that
people
may
have
some
reluctance
to
lowering
price
in
some
places.
I
get
the
fact
that
we
have
this
wonderful
goal
of
a
car
free
world
that
may
happen
someday,
but
it's
probably
a
little
ways
off.
There's
some
people
who
just
need
to
drive
because
of
mobility
issues,
because
they're
coming
from
a
long
ways
away.
We
do
want
to
welcome
people
to
our
town
from
other
places.
A
Mean
and
and.
H
So
I
I
think
for
us
to
have
an
effective
differential.
We
need
to
have
a
differential,
we
can
we
can.
We
can
raise
some
prices
and
there's
a
bit
of
a
differential
there,
but
I
like
to
what
you
guys
have
done,
with
lowering
some
prices
as
well
to
kind
of
move
people
into
those
places
where
there's
less
usage
and
and
to
change
some
behavior
and
and
so
and
then
again,
as
Tara
said,
we
have
this
overriding
Equity
issue.
H
We
have
employees
who
don't
make
a
lot
of
money
who
need
to
come
downtown
to
work
and
we
want
to
give
them
inexpensive
options,
inexpensive
places
to
work
and
if
we
only
raise
prices
and
didn't
lower
some
prices,
we're
going
to
price
some
of
those
people
out
of
jobs.
Quite
frankly,
the
number
one
complaint
we
hear
about
downtown
is
people's
perception
and
I
think
it
is
a
perception.
H
But
you
know
feelings
are
facts
that
that
it's
too
expensive
to
park
or
there's
no
place
to
park
and
and
I
and
I
think
all
we
did
was
raise
prices.
We
would
just
feed
that
perception
and
there'd
be
a
greater
belief.
The
downtown
is
not
a
place
to
go
either
for
people
in
our
community
or
people
outside
of
our
community.
H
So
I
think
you
guys
have
hit
the
nail
right
on
the
head
as
far
as
demand
pricing
make
expensive
place
with
places
where
people
tend
to
park
right
now
anyway,
and
if
they
want
to
pay
that
higher
rate,
that's
swell
and
but
also
keep
it
low
or
lower,
even
lower
it
for
our
employees
and
for
those
people
who
are
willing
to
walk
an
extra
few
blocks
in
exchange
for
for
lower
pricing.
So
thanks
what
you
did
I
fully
support
what
you
what
you
proposed.
B
AE
I
think
for
the
people
who
want
to
walk
a
few
blocks,
there's
already
like
free
places
to
park
near
downtown.
One
of
my
kids
worked
at
a
downtown
restaurant
and
I
think
parked
near
Casey
middle
school,
and
you
know
she
didn't
want
to
pay
so
I,
don't
I,
guess
I,
just
don't
think
we
have
to
to
lower
costs.
I
think
that
that
that
is.
AE
It
just
feels
like
a
bit
of
a
move
in
the
wrong
direction
for
for
our
master
plan
and
where
we're
trying
to
go
and
and
really
nudge
people
out
of
cars
and
appreciate
interior
at
his
small
town.
But
one
of
the
nice
things
is.
It's
also
really
easy
to
bike
places
and
use
the
public
transportation
to
get
around
here.
AE
So
I
I
also
think
it's
not
that
much
of
a
differential
that
that
for
a
lot
of
people,
they're,
probably
not
going
to
even
appreciate
you
know
the
the
dollar
difference
to
research
where
you
can
park
versus
not
and
I,
think
that
for
people
who
really
need
it,
they'll
probably
continue
to
look
for
free
parking,
which
is
what
a
lot
of
us
do.
If
we
have
to
drive
down
there,
thanks.
B
Great
junior
that
I'll
call
myself.
X
Yeah,
thank
you.
I
remember
when
you
came
last
year
with
this
discussion
and
I.
Remember,
I
was
one
of
the
few
who
are
skeptical
about
the
rate
increase
because
of
exactly
what
Bob
said
about
the
the
impact
on
some
of
our
workers.
Lower
income
workers,
I'm
A,
working
woman
and
I,
can
tell
you
I
do
really
think
about
where
I'm
going
to
park
and
in
Boulder,
if
you're
not
wealthy,
it's
very
hard
for
you
to
live
near
downtown.
X
X
Subsidizing
parking
is
like
subsidizing
driving,
so
I.
Think
again,
part
of
it
is
having
that
Equity
piece
and
looking
further
into
this
to
ensure
that
all
Community
benefit
But.
Ultimately,
I
I
support
the
recommendation
so
for
performance,
space,
pricing
change,
yeah,.
B
So
I'll
go
ahead
and
call
myself
I.
Think
overall
I
do
support
where
you're
going
with
this
I
appreciate
all
the
data
and
the
analysis
of
the
different
parking
utilization,
different
areas.
I
think
this
data
is
really
a
great
thing
to
build
upon
and
and
and
then
adjusting
increasing
the
price
where
the
the
utilization
is
is
high
enough
that
there's
no
available
parking
I
would
not
personally
I
would
not
reduce
parking
price
at
this
time.
B
I
think
our
garages
offer
a
great
lower
cost
opportunity
for
parking
the
city,
particularly
to
the
lower
income
workers
with
the
evening
flat
three
dollar
rate,
so
I
think
we
have
a
great
option
there,
so
so
I
would
I
would
I
would
stick
with
the
or
I
would
shift
our
floor,
which
it
currently
is
to
a
dollar
fifty
and
ex
raise
where
you
propose
to
raise
it
and
then
continue
to
evaluate
year
after
year,
but
I
think
overall,
you've
got
a
you've,
got
a
great
plan
and
then
I'll.
AD
Sorry
I'm
having
trouble
clipping
clicking
buttons.
Yes,
you
stole
what
I
was
gonna
say
about
the
parking
garages
and
for
the
same
reasons
that
you
mentioned
I
feel
similarly.
B
Great
so
so
let
me
just
ask:
does
anybody
have
any
disagreement
other
than
some
for
some
of
us
disagreeing
with
lowering
the
price
any
other
disagreements?
B
D
So,
as
I
was
reading
this
right,
it
seemed
like
everything
was
kind
of
interconnected
and
tied
together
this
management
strategy
that
you
have
so
my
question
is:
if
we
were
to,
you,
know,
change
one
of
the
areas.
How
does
that
affect
the
rest
of
it?
Or
does
it
at
all?
Does
that
make
sense
because
it
seemed
like
it
was
just
all
connected
right:
the
strategy
that
you
have
different
kind
of
bands
and
places,
and
so
I'm
just
wondering
if
one
changes
does
that
impact.
D
AG
And
so
right
now
our
our
sort
of
base
price
is
a
dollar
fifty.
So
for
next
year,
if
we're
talking
about
not
lowering
the
price
for
some
of
those
blocks
from
a
dollar
fifty
to
a
dollar,
they
would
remain
at
a
dollar
fifty
and
then
we
would
just
have
two
basically
two
tiers.
We
have
a
two
dollar
price
block
and
a
dollar
fifty
Place
block
and
then
our
garages
right
and
so
in
future
years.
That
will
continue
to
change,
because
every
year
we
can
either
raise
or
lower
the
pricing.
AG
So
the
blocks
that
are
two
dollars
next
year
could
be
250
the
year
after
that,
and
then
three
dollars
a
year
after
that,
but
it
does
mean
that
we
would
lose
some
of
that,
like
some
of
those
options
for
the
variety
of
different
tiers
for
next
year.
If
we,
if
we
decide
to
raise
the
floor
up
to
a
dollar
fifty,
does
that
then
looks
like
Christmas
yeah.
AF
I
was
just
going
to
say
it
does
it
does
impact
the
data
collection
for
next
year
with
that
Delta
between
the
lowest
tier
and
the
highest
tier,
so
it
just
means
we
have
two
prices,
as
opposed
to
three
tiers
of
pricing.
B
AD
Can
I
ask
one
quick
question:
yeah,
yes,
go
ahead
Lauren,
so
what
is
the
hourly
rate
in
the
garages.
AG
AD
AG
And
then
there's
an
evening
program,
so
if
you
enter
between
the
out,
if
you
enter
after
3
pm
and
leave
before
3
A.M,
it's
a
it's
a
flat
three
dollar
rate.
B
Okay,
so
stroppol,
who
would
like
to
see
the
price
for
some
parsing
parking
decreased
per
the
staff
recommendation?
We
got
three,
we
got
four,
we
got
four
and
a
half
Nicole
you're
gonna
have
to.
M
AE
R
B
F
Have
a
question
didn't:
didn't
you
tell
us
in
your
wasn't
that
the
plan
in
your
performance-based
price
changes
to
lower
some
and
increase
some?
So
we
can
just
say
we
that's
a
good
plan
to
start
with
I'm
just
going
to
say
that.
AF
One,
it
seems
like
the
half
of
you
are
interested
in
in
implementing
as
proposed.
The
other
half
are
not
interested
in
the
price
decrease
right,
which
so
then
I'd
say
there
are
probably
possibly
two
options.
If
we
then
wanted
to
still
have
a
Delta
between
the
lowest
utilized
block
faces
and
the
highest
utilized
block
faces
and
I'm
not
suggesting
that
a
straw
poll
would
be
nice,
I
guess
on.
Do
we
want
to
entertain
two
dollars
and
fifty
cents
per
hour
next
year
on
our
highest
utilized
block
faces
two
dollars
on
our
me.
AF
D
I
was
just
going
to
ask
a
question,
so
one
of
the
reasons
that
I'm
really
torn
here
is
that
if
I
read
the
engagement
description,
the
racial
Equity
tool,
correctly
8
500
people
weighed
in
on
this
right
and
so
I
think
what
I'm
struggling
with
is
kind
of
going
against
that
going
against
some.
You
know,
thinking
from
all
the
boards
and
commissions
from
all
the
people
who
weighed
in
on
this
at
nine
o'clock
at
night,
so
I'm
I'm.
That's
that
that's
part
of
the
reason
that
I'm
really.
B
X
B
D
That's
what
it
takes
to
kind
of
move
us
forward,
I
think
I'm
in
a
similar
spot,
where
having
two
tears
feels
okay
to
me,
we
have
the
parking
garages,
as
Lauren
pointed
out,
I
think
that
that
still
have
the
lowest
here.
My
question
is
I
mean
from
all
the
engagement
that
you
did
is
that
okay
I
mean
what
what
is
your?
What
is
your
thought
there.
AG
B
AF
Question
Yeah
in
our
engagement
with
the
community
during
the
AMS
implementation
conversation
there
wasn't
that
we
didn't
get
into
the
exact
pricing.
It's
just
making
sure
that
folks
always
had
a
an
affordable
option.
I
think
you,
the
garage,
is
still
intended
to
be
the
affordable
option.
Exactly
for
folks
who
have
long-term
parking
needs,
because
we
still
have
parking
time
restrictions
on
all
on-street
parking
in
the
downtown,
so
the
intent
is
not
to
not
have
people
parking
for
more
than
two
hours
anyway
on
street.
AF
So
I,
don't
think
that
you
know
by
raising
the
ceiling
to
a
dollar
fifty.
It
just
means
that
we'll
we'll
not
lower
the
rates
on
the
lower
utilized
block
faces
we'll
collect
data
in
2023
and
we'll
have
recommendations
for
2024
that
will
include
raising
rates
on
the
highest
utilized
block
faces
and
then
in
2024
we'd
have
those
three
tiers.
So
it's
just
it's
a
slower
step
to
getting
to
that
point
of
having
the
three
price
levels.
D
I
think
it
would
be
with
the
not
lowering
prices
next
year,
because.
B
D
Just
one
really
quick
one,
which
is
that
I
read
the
note
about
offering
income
qualified
residents
a
discount
and
I,
really
appreciate
that
and
I
was
also
thinking
about
those
residents
as
being
some
who
may
benefit
from
the
e-bike
rebate
program.
When
we
get
there.
AE
AE
B
F
F
F
I
think
it's
a
great
idea
to
do
something
similar
to
Camp.
It
was
a
great
experience
for
everybody
on
Camp
and
we
got
to
hear
from
all
different
sides
and
a
huge
amount
of
community
engagement
I,
really
like
what
Rachel
said
about
equity
in
terms
of
Trail
access,
and
we
also
have
Sven
here
who
gave
us
the
other
side
so
I
feel
like
that
is
the
best
of
of
Both
Worlds
to
really
on
all
the
higher
impact
neighborhoods.
To
do
that
type
of
thing,
I
really
think
that
would
be
a
great
idea.
M
AE
Yeah,
so
thanks
for
that
Tara,
I,
I
guess
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
that
what
we're
doing
as
part
of
that,
you
know
to
the
extent
that
that
any
look
would
be
like
the
impact
on
visitation.
I
think
that
if
we're
worried
about
any
Trails
being
overused,
the
the
answer
should
not
be
through
parking
or
Transportation,
because
that
that
to
me
just
gives
like
Priority
Access
to
people
who
can
walk
to
those
Trails.
AE
You
know
if,
if
there
are
other
ways
that
we
need
to
look
at
them,
let's
look
at
those,
but
I
would
not
tether
that
at
all
to
this
conversation,
because
this
is
just
about
I-
think
making
sure
that
people
can
park
in
their
neighborhoods
and
park
near
where
they
want
to
access
Trails.
So
that's
the
first
thing
and
then
second
I
guess
I
was
intrigued
by
by
Lauren's
question.
Like
you
know,
why
are
we
looking
at
some
of
these
spots
and
I?
Guess:
I?
AE
Don't
I
would
just
want
to
be
sure
that
in
looking
at
this
we're
not
making
it
easier
to
keep
people
out
because
I'm
I'm
worried
that
by
looking
by
focusing
on
like
you
know,
parking
permits,
then
it
makes
it
harder.
If
those
you
know
we
all,
we
always
talk
about
like
you,
don't
you
don't
own
the
street
in
front
of
your
house,
so
I
would
not
want
for
for
people
who
have
ample.
AE
You
know
driveway
parking
to
to
turn
that
into
a
much
harder
Trail
to
access
in
a
lot
of
those
neighborhoods,
so
I
think
that's,
maybe
where
Lauren
was
going.
Sorry,
if
I'm,
paraphrasing
or
misfaising
your
thought
there,
but
I
guess
I'm
still
a
little
bit
unclear
on
where
we're
trying
to
go
with
that
and
why
we're
trying
to
go
there
and
and
who
it's
going
to
benefit?
And
it's
not
to
be
insensitive
to
people
who
struggle
you
know
with
with
a
teen
parking
in
their
front.
You
know
out
front
after
school
or
whatever.
AE
That's
that
is
I'm,
not
insensitive,
and
that's
a
really
popular
hiking
area.
That
I
think
we
should
have,
as
Nicole
said,
better
bike
parking
and-
and
you
know
more
easy
as
Tara
was
getting
at
shuttles
to
the
areas,
but
just
would
not
want
to
do
anything
that
makes
it
harder
for
people
who
don't
have.
AE
What
must
be
really
nice
of
of
Trail
access
out
your
backyard,
to
not
make
it
harder
for
those
people
who
are
bolder
residents
to
enjoy
what
we
all
should
be
able
to
enjoy.
Thanks.
B
Search
I'll
call
myself
and
then
go
to
Lauren.
I
agree
with
generally
Rachel's
comments
here.
I
think
this
is
an
issue
that
deserves
looking
at
right.
I
mean
we've
heard
from.
We
have
a
very
long
suffering,
Community
member
here,
who's
dealt
with
issues
in
his
neighborhood
and
so
I
think
it's
it's
important
to
take
those
seriously,
but
I
also
think
we
need
to
look
carefully
at
the
equity
issues
in
terms
of
access
to
our
public
lands
and
how
access
to
publicly
owned
parking
and
publicly
available
parking.
B
You
know
make
sure
that
there's
still
access
to
publicly
owned
land
through
publicly
owned
right-of-way.
So,
while
still
taking
these
things
into
account,
I
think
part
of
why
Camp
was
so
successful
up
at
Chautauqua
is
the
variety
of
options
that
we
offered
right
so
that
we
have
the
transit
piece
in
there.
So
it
was
like
look.
Okay,
maybe
it's
expensive
now,
but
you
can
hop
on
the
bus.
So
there
are
options
so
in
some
of
our
more
remote
Trailhead
areas.
B
You
know
some
more
parking
controls,
Etc
et
cetera,
so
I
think
we
need
a
holistic
set
of
tools
which
I
know
you're
thinking
about
as
well,
but
I
would
I
would
definitely
look
more
towards
applying
more
controls
to
where
we
can
offer
more
options
primarily
and
then
just
the
other
thing
is
that
this
is
I
think
valuable
work
to
to
be
working
on,
but
we
also
continually
hear
about
a
lack
of
capacity
to
address
priority
projects
right.
So
we
know
we
want
to
look
at
the
downtown
and
potential
parking
and
access
and
Street
changes
there.
B
Transportation
is
super
busy
with
can
so
I
wouldn't
want
to
see
this
push
out
our
other
initiatives
so
to
the
extent
that
you
can
integrate
it
fantastic,
but
I,
wouldn't
I,
wouldn't
delay
other
important
work
as
we
get
this
started
because
but
but
it's
it's
good
work
to
be
doing
so.
That's
my
thoughts,
any
others.
We
got
Lauren
and
then
Bob.
AD
Thank
you,
Aaron
yeah,
I.
Think
for
me,
one
of
the
most
important
things
is
that
we
are.
You
know
we
have
projects
like
the
can
project
and
things
like
that
that
really
represent
trying
to
deal
with
some
serious
life
safety
issues
for
our
community
and
so
I
want
to
make
sure
that
you
know
anything
that
that
that
that
is,
prioritized
and
being
sensitive
to
staff
resources.
I
think
that.
AD
AD
The
the
cost
to
implement
would
be
extremely,
it
seems
like
it
would
be
higher
than
it
is
in
other
areas
of
the
city
which
we
know
that
we
already
aren't
necessarily
capturing
our
costs
on
and
in
addition
to
that,
so
you're.
Looking
at
Eric,
Trail
heads
and
parking
areas
that
are
smaller
and
farther
away
when
I
think
about
my
own
neighborhood.
AD
AD
AD
You
know,
residents
would
be
more
concerned
about
the
increase
in
costs
than
they
are
in
having
to
deal
with
the
occasional
person
parking
in
our
neighborhood.
So
the
the
fall
off
is
really
quick
around
those
trailheads
in
terms
of
what
blocks
are
affected
and
so
must
to
implement.
These
programs
is
then
worn
by
a
smaller
number
of
people,
and
it
just
I
to
me.
AD
H
Among
my
colleagues,
because
on
the
one
hand
we
just
agreed
that
it
was
okay
to
make
it
harder
and
more
expensive
to
park
downtown,
but
we
don't
want
to
make
it
harder
to
park
near
trailheads
and
so
I'm
not
sure
what
you
do
with
that.
But
it
does
seem
like
we're.
Making
some
value.
Judgments
here
and
and
I
worry
a
little
bit
about
Equity
there,
because
we
do
have
employees.
H
We
have
a
lot
of
employees
who
who
must
come
downtown
to
work,
and
you
know
I
love
our
open
space,
but
it
is
you
know
it
is
it's
a
luxury.
It's
a
nice
thing
to
do
it's
not
something
you
got
it
unless
you're
working
in
open
space
and
I
think
they
park
for
free
anyway,
it's
something
we
do
recreationally,
and
so
it's
it's
a
little
troubling
to
me
that
we're
saying
we're
going
to
prioritize
parking
for
Recreation
over
parking
for
people
who
want
to
go
or
need
to
go
to
work.
H
So
I,
don't
know
what
you
I'm
just
making
an
observation:
I'm
not
making
a
comment
there,
but
it
is
a
little
troubling
to
me
that
we're
we're
kind
of
picking,
winners
and
choosers
here,
so
we're
choosing
pictures,
winners
and
losers.
It's
getting
a
little
bit
late.
So
good
luck
with
this
and
striking
the
balance.
I
look
forward
to
what
you
guys
come
back.
I
do
have
a
question.
H
I,
don't
think
I
heard
from
you
all
your
timing
on
trail
access,
management,
presentations
and
I
know
we
have
lots
of
areas
to
look
at
I,
know
you're
going
to
prioritize
the
the
highest
pressured
spots.
First,
can
you
give
us
any
indication
of
those
yeah
I
couldn't
quite
read
those
before
so
you're
going
to
come
back
I
get
to
Camp
with
the
trail
access
the
first
batch
will
be
in
the
follow-up
next
year.
Is
that
right.
AG
Yeah
and
I
think
what
we're
proposing
is
that
we
come
up
with
the
strategy
and
framework,
but
we're
not
necessarily
proposing
any
changes,
we're
just
coming
up
with
the
strategy
and
framework
based
on
metrics.
So
we
can
say
you
know
if
it
hits.
If
a
neighborhood
Hood
hits
these
thresholds,
then
we
can
apply
these
strategies
and
tools.
These
are
the
different
Tools
in
our
toolbox,
based
on
what
the
measured
impacts
to
that
neighborhood
are,
and
so
that's.
AG
B
Anything
else
can
we
wrap
up
here
all
right,
seeing
nothing
else.
I
really
appreciate
all
your
hard
work.
Is
this
been
clear
enough
for
next
steps?
Do
you
feel
like
you've
gotten
what
you
needed,
I.
B
B
Okay,
less
big:
how
about
that
I
will
say
with
Camp,
ramp
and
and
Tamp.
You
should
think
about
a
children's
book
here.
I
think
there's
there's
potential,
but
anyway
thanks
so
much
for
all
your
work.
C
G
Council,
if
you'll
give
me
just
a
moment
to
get
set
up
here,
I
have
just
a
really
brief
PowerPoint
for
you.
W
G
G
That
amount
was
established
back
in
1985
and
has
not
has
not
had
any
increase
since
that
time.
G
To
just
provide
some
context,
since
2017
claims
were
settled
for
more
than
ten
thousand
dollars
and,
of
course,
all
of
those
came
to
council,
as
is
required
by
code
of
those
17
claims.
11
of
those
cases
were
settled
for
less
than
fifty
thousand
dollars,
which
is
the
the
potential
increase
that
I'm,
hoping
we
can
discuss
tonight
is
Authority
up
to
50
000..
G
To
give
you
an
idea
of
what
kind
of
claims.
Typically,
we
would
see
between
that
ten
thousand
dollar
Mark
and
that
fifty
thousand
dollar
Mark
we're
looking
at
property
damage,
auto
accidents,
sewer
backups
bike
accidents,
oil
and
gas.
G
And
so,
as
I
said,
we're
looking
to
see
if,
if
there
is
desire
to
change
that
settlement
authority
to
fifty
thousand
dollars
would
be
my
proposal
just
looking
at
what
neighboring
communities
do,
what
settlements,
the
type
of
claim
that
we're
settling
at
that
dollar
amount.
And
so
that's
that's
the
the
context
for
this
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
X
I
do
's
word.
This
is
coming
from
of
course
times
I've
changed
and
I'm.
Sorry,
I,
don't
remember
the
exact
date,
as
you
mentioned,
the
ten
thousand
dollars,
but
I'm
wondering
what,
if
it's
something
that
is
a
more
like
a
political
question
or
political
issues
that
concern
Council
as
well.
How
would
you
go
about
I
because
I
understand
settling
some
some
legal
matters?
It's
okay!
The
news
will
never
find
out
it's
okay,
but
what
if
it's
something
that
is
contentious
and
Council
would
like
to
probably
would
have
liked
to
weigh
in.
G
Yeah
thanks
for
that
question,
so
typically,
these
this
kind
of
authority
is
is
divided
by
dollar
amount
rather
than
by
topic.
G
I
I
would
note
that
all
settlements
entered
into
by
the
city
are
matter
of
public
record,
and
so
certainly
the
public
can
always
find
out
any
settlement
that
we've
entered
into.
That
is
part
of
the
open
records
law.
G
G
B
X
G
Thanks
I
I
appreciate
that,
and
certainly
I
understand
that
you
know
this
ordinance
is
not
about
any
particular
City
attorney
or
city
manager
right,
but
instead
about
the
authority
vested
in
those
roles.
D
Just
one
more
comment,
which
is
that
I
really
appreciate
you
bringing
this
to
us
and
noting
that
this
is
an
issue
for
you
and
coming
to
us
about
that.
So
thank
you.
B
And
I
just
realized
I
should
have
done
a
time
check
at
the
end
of
our
last
thing,
but
we
have
two
things
left
on
the
agenda
that
are
supposed
to
go
for
roughly
20
minutes.
Are
we
all
right
with
charging
forward
and
finishing
up
here
all
right,
very
good?
So
Alicia
we
got
a
Matters
from
the
mayor
member
of
council
members
of
Council
next.
B
Okay,
so
this
is
opportunity
I
think.
The
way
this
is
structured
is
that
tonight
anyone
who
wants
to
can
raise
their
hand
and
give
a
speech
of
interest
for
mayor
Pro,
tem
and
then
at
a
later
meeting.
We
would
come
back
and
and
vote
on
who
that
might
person
might
be,
but
for
now
we
can
just
throw
the
floor
open
and
anybody
I
guess
other
than
myself.
I,
don't
think
I'm
allowed
to
put
myself
forward.
Anyone
else
could
raise
their
hand
and
give
a
speech
of
Interest.
So
we
have.
We
got
mark.
E
Although
most
of
my
colleagues
will
question
the
possibility
of
this
I'm
actually
going
to
be
brief,
traditionally
the
post
of
Mayor
Pro
tem
is
awarded
to
the
most
senior
member
of
council
who's
not
previously
served
in
that
capacity.
In
this
case,
that
would
be
me
and
I
hope
that
this
Council
will
adhere
to
that
tradition.
E
D
D
In
Council
meetings,
study
sessions
and
committee
meetings,
I
am
collaborative
and
respectful
with
you
all,
with
staff
and
with
the
community.
Even
when
we
disagree,
I
have
the
leadership
and
communication
skills
needed
to
step
into
the
pro
tem
role
and
I
bring
some
important
perspectives
from
our
community.
That
are
not
typically
represented
on
this
Council
and
especially
not
in
our
leadership.
I
share
with
most
of
you,
the
privilege
of
being
a
white
homeowner
as
an
openly
queer
woman,
a
parent
of
school-aged
children
and
a
worker
who
balances
two
jobs.
D
I
bring
a
unique
perspective
to
our
policy,
making
and
problem
solving
I
hope,
you'll.
Consider
my
unique
perspectives
as
you
consider
your
mayor,
Pro
tem
vote,
because
we
are
at
risk
of
embodying
the
glass
ceiling,
we're
a
majority
female
Council,
but
we
are
considering
all
male
leadership.
I
appreciate
that
male
leadership
is
often
the
norm
and
I
don't
point
this
out
to
disparage
my
male
colleagues
at
all,
rather
I
feel
strongly
that
we
should
not
care
more
about
upholding
the
status
quo.
D
Then
we
care
about
making
progress
on
gender
Equity,
particularly
at
a
time
when
the
rights
of
women,
trans
and
non-binary
members
of
our
community
are
under
attack.
A
key
role
of
leadership
is
recognizing
when
old
practices
have
outlived
their
utility
and
courageously
choosing
to
follow
a
different
path.
D
If
he
is
absent
in
supporting
the
mayor
and
representing
our
city
to
the
public
and
the
media,
all
the
work
that
I've
done
in
my
tenure
on
Council
was
done
in
partnership
with
all
of
you
and
it's
my
commitment
to
you
to
continue
and
grow
that
partnership.
As
your
mayor,
Pro
tem
this
next
year
for
us
as
a
governing
body
is
going
to
be
difficult.
The
majority
of
our
work
plan
is
still
in
progress,
and
the
community
is
counting
on
us
to
make
the
necessary
positive
changes.
D
We
committed
to
my
collaborative
approach
to
leadership
will
help
us
achieve
our
goals
in
a
way
that
is
considerate
of
each
of
you
and
of
the
community.
We
serve
I
hope,
you'll
vote
for
me
not
just
to
support
gender
diversity
and
Leadership,
but
because
you
recognize
that
when
people
come
from
communities
that
are
not
typically
represented
in
leadership
roles,
their
voices
and
experiences
are
critical
and
cannot
be
substituted.
Thank
you
for
your
consideration.
B
All
right,
seeing
no
one,
then
I,
think
we've
got
our
two
speeches
of
Interest
so
Nicole
and
mark.
Thank
you
both
for
putting
your
names
forward.
It's
an
important
role
for
our
community,
so
I
will
call
something
out
here
in
terms
of
scheduling,
which
is
that
we
are
scheduled
per
normal,
like
per
a
regular
schedule.
We
would
have
this
vote
in
two
weeks
on
the
17th,
but
my
understanding
is
that
we've
got
two
members
absent
at
that
meeting
and
I
believe
that
is
Rachel
and
Mark,
and
so
I
wanted
to
check.
B
In
with
folks.
You
know,
Teresa
I
believe
we
would
be
allowed
to
defer
that
vote
to
the
to
the
first
legally.
But
maybe
you
could
talk
that
through
about
whether
that's
a
possibility
and
then
I'll
check
with
my
Council
colleagues
to
see
if
there's
interest.
G
Yes
mayor,
so
the
timing
for
the
mayor,
Pro
tem
election
is
prescribed
by
the
council
rules
of
procedure,
which
you
just
updated
tonight,
so
that,
while
that
timing
is
prescribed,
the
council
rules
of
procedure
also
state
that
the
rules
can
be
suspended.
And
so
what
would
be
required
is
a
motion
to
suspend
the
rules.
G
B
E
Right
yeah,
Mark,
yeah,
obviously
I
would
like
to
participate.
I
cannot
participate
on
the
17th,
and,
although
that
is
a
self-interested
comment,
I
would
like
to
be
there
and
I
would
like
to
experience
the
the
proceeding.
B
X
I'm
very
surprised,
I
didn't
know
there
would
be
an
extension
of
Mayor
Pro
Temp
friend,
not
that
it
but
I
just
want
to
understand
what
is
the
legal
ramification
before
we
make
that
decision.
So
is
that
something
that
would
happen
on
the
17th
and
I
know?
You
mentioned
that
you
will
get
back
to
us
on
that
yeah.
B
G
I
did
have
an
opportunity
to
to
look
this
up,
as
you
all
were
speaking
and
the
council
rules
of
procedure
provide
that
the
mayor,
Pro
tem,
serves
for
one
year,
so
it's
actually
a
prescribed
amount
of
time.
You
all
again
right,
because
this
is
in
the
council
rules
of
procedure.
You
could
vote
to
suspend
that
rule
and
and
allow
council
member
friend
to
serve
that
role
or
you.
You
could
choose
not
to
do
that
and
let
her
time
elapse.
AD
AD
What
meeting
would
that
occur
at
I
mean
if
right,
because
our
next
voting
meeting
is
in
two
weeks
when
we're
we
were
scheduled
or
are
scheduled
to
vote
for
mayor
Pro
tem,
so
does
that
mean
at
that
meeting?
We
would
have
to
have
a
public
hearing
to
determine
if,
at
that
meeting,
we
were
going
to
vote
for
mayor
Pro,
tem
Theresa.
G
I
was
not
as
precise
with
my
language
as
I
should
have
been.
The
public
hearing
is
for
the
mayor,
Pro
tem
election.
No
public
hearing
would
be
required
to
suspend
the
rules.
That
is
completely
within
the
council's
ability.
It
does
take
either
a
two-thirds
majority
vote
or
five
members.
Whichever
number
is
higher.
O
AE
I
I'm
happy
to
serve
or
not
serve
an
extra
week
as
Pro
tem.
So
please
do
not
read
what
I'm
about
to
say
is
as
any
sort
of
an
attempted
one-week
coup
of
this
role.
AE
B
Again,
until
I
get
hit
by
a
bus
or
something
not
that
that
should
happen,
but
Bob
I.
H
AE
I
I,
yes,
I'm
already
going
to
be
out
that
week
so
and
then
I
think
we're
off
the
next
week
for
Thanksgiving.
So.
H
D
Yeah
and
I
mean
I
just
want
a
name
right,
I'm,
not
I'm,
biased
in
saying
this
and
I
think
the
the
question
that
I
have
is
more
about
the
process
and
the
Precedence.
So
what
does
it
mean
if
we
start
deciding
that
we're
going
to
move
votes
around
based
on
who
is
here
and
who
is
not
here?
D
That
to
me
feels
like
a
significant
issue
and
Mark
I
very
much
hear
it
right,
I
really
would
be.
It
would
be
odd
right
to
to
not
be
here,
for
the
vote
of
this
thing
that
you
have
stepped
up
for
and
thank
you
by
the
way
and
it
this
doesn't
feel
like
good
precedent
to
set
up
to
move
things
around
based
on
people
being
present
or
not
and
I,
don't
know
if
we've
I
mean
do
we
do
this
before.
Like
is
this
something
that
we've
like?
D
W
Come
on,
don't
say
this
as
I
as
I
think
about
Chris,
so
I
appreciate
the
question
right.
We
we
have
had,
at
least
in
my
tenure
here
there
have
been
votes
or
items
that
have
been
asked
to
be
moved
or
postponed,
because
there
was
a
council
member
who
had
a
particular
interest
in
an
item
and
so
I.
Don't
necessarily
believe
this
would
be
setting
precedent
the
and,
where
you're
voting
to
suspend
it,
then
I
I,
think
that
is
that
is
appropriate.
Chris
am
I
wrong
in
this.
W
I
believe
that
in
the
past
that
we
have
had
certainly
some
occasions
where
an
item
has
moved
or
not,
that
rules
have
been
or
or
an
item
has
been
postponed
or
or
changed,
because
there
was
a
council
member
that
was
not
present
had
an
interest.
There
have
been
discussions
on
the
dice
about
the
timing
of
certain
votes
and
I
believe,
at
least
in
my
time,
I've
seen
that
happen
and
I
assume
that
in
your
history,
you
have
seen
that
that's.
Y
Correct
that's
what
my
experience
of
council
has
been
is,
if
there's
an
agenda
item
that
maybe
is
a
very
contentious
item
that
sometimes
that
item
will
be
rescheduled
to
another
meeting,
to
ensure
that
all
nine
council
members
can
be
there.
So
there
is
a
previous
precedent
of
doing
that
on
agenda
items
that
are
that
are
out
there.
AE
B
A
G
Though
all
right,
good
both
and
that
there
there
was
a
request
to
move
the
item
and
we
wanted
staff,
we
wanted
to
package
the
item
with
some
additional
procedural
changes.
If.
D
I
just
step
in
and
clarify
here
so
I
mean
this.
This
was
me,
I
had
reached
out
and
yeah.
Thank
you
Rachel
for
bringing
that
up
and
after
having
a
conversation
with
Teresa.
That
was
where
I
kind
of
backed
up
from
that
and
said.
No.
D
That
actually
may
not
be
a
good
idea,
but
what
I
hear
folks
saying
tonight
is
that
there
is
precedent
for
moving
votes
when
when
we
have
an
issue
of
significant
importance-
and
it
is
one
that
we
have
done
this
before
so
so
anyway-
I
just
just
wanted
to
clear
up
the
confusion,
because
it's
getting
a
little
weird
with
talking
about
things
that
were
said
and
who
said
it
whatever.
D
B
Okay,
I
think
so
Nicole,
sir,
are
you
too
clever?
Are
you
comfortable
then,
with
this
with
delaying
until
the
first
I
said
it
right?
Okay,
so
anybody
else
that
one
wanted
to
could
personally
I
I
have
seen
us
wait
until
we
have
nine
council
members
on
on
issues
that
that
there's
some
disagreement
on
so
I
I
think
it's
a
reasonable
thing
to
do
to
wait
until
the
first
just
for
two
weeks.
B
Okay,
so
I'm
not
seeing
any
other
disagreement
at
this
point.
I
appreciate
the
discussion
over
it.
So
then,
from
a
procedural
standpoint
Teresa
would
we
have
a
motion
on
the
consent
agenda
on
the
17th
to
suspend
the
rules
of
procedure
to
move
it
to
the
first
December
1st.
H
To
okay,
do
we
just
a
question
clarify
question
Teresa
thanks
for
that.
G
H
B
G
B
G
G
That's
exactly
right
and
they
will
see
a
public
hearing
for
it
in
listed
in
two
weeks,
and
so
council
could
think
about
some
kind
of
hotline
or
advanced
communication
in
an
effort
to
alert
the
public
that
they
into.
If
it's,
the
will
of
counsel,
that
Council
intends
to
to
suspend
the
rules
to
hold
the
the
election
stating
the
date
on
which
you're
going
to
hold
the
election
and
that
the
public
hearing
will
be
continued
until
such
time.
AD
Is
there
anything
we
could
do
in
terms
of
the
title
of
that
agenda
topic
or
a
notification
that
we
could
send
out
if
people
were
to
sign
up
for
that
public
hearing?
Do
we
have
any
legal
limits
to
what
we
could
because
I
you
know
it
does
I,
don't
like
wasting
people's
time.
I,
don't
want
people
to
show
up
for
a
public
hearing
that
we're
not
going
to
have.
G
I
hear
your
concern
at
the
same
time,
I
think
we
cannot
assume
the
outcome
of
a
vote,
and
so
that's
the
tension
here
right
is
that
we,
it
would
be
inappropriate
to
assume
the
outcome
of
the
vote
to
suspend
the
rules.
B
So
thanks
for
reading
that
Lauren,
so
what
I
might
suggest
Teresa
is
that
maybe
think
about
this
a
little
bit
more
tomorrow
and
then
we
can
talk
about
it
at
CAC,
on
Monday
and
discuss
the
the
best
kind
of
labeling
of
agenda
items
and
communication
strategy
based
on
Council
feedback
from
tonight.
That.
B
Learn
to
set
address
as
best
we
can,
what
you're
just
raising
okay,
Rachel
and
then.
B
B
W
M
H
A
A
B
All
right
last
item.
B
So
Nicole,
would
you
like
me
to
do
this,
or
do
you
want
to
bring
it
up
because
you
this
was
your
idea
actually
but
I'm
happy
to
take
it?
If
you'd
rather
not
go
ahead,.
D
Yeah,
so
this
came
up
at
CAC
this
past
week,
and
the
issue
was
that
the
human
relations
commission
had
sent
us
a
letter,
letting
us
know
that
they
strongly
supported
our
endorsing
measure
2E
on
the
ballot,
the
move
to
even
year
elections,
and
so
we,
we
kind
of
talked
about
you
know
at
this
stage,
are
we
going
to
endorse
Bala
measures?
You
know
that
we
haven't
talked
about
before
what
we
basically
got
to
was.
D
It
is
a
little
bit
late
in
the
the
year
for
us
to
think
about
this,
and
it
would
be
nice
to
discuss
it
for
next
year
to
have
a
process
in
place
by
which
we
are
thinking
about
which
ballot
measures
are
we
going
to
endorse,
and
what
is
the
timeline
for
that,
so
that
we
have
enough
time
to
get
information
to
the
community.
