Good
started,
then,
if
I
hope
we
got
Channel
8
ready
to
go
and
we're
recording
the
meeting
so
welcome
everyone
to
the
November
17th
2022
business
meeting
at
the
Boulder
City
Council.
This
would
have
been
a
hybrid
meeting
but
because
of
the
weather,
we're
virtual.
So
thanks
for
everyone
for
their
flexibility
on
rolling
with
that
I'm
going
to
start
us
off
with
an
announcement
which
is
about
code,
Vex,
19
vaccinations
so
for
information
provider
locations
for
free
covid-19
testing,
please
go
to
www.voco.org
covet
testing
the
boulder
site,
for
that
is
a
24
or
45.
B
C
D
B
And
we'll
just
note
that
council
member
friend
is
a
cons.
Smart
cities,
conference
and
council
member
Wallace
is
out
of
town
for
for
personal
matters,
so
we'll
be
back
next
week
or
in
two
weeks.
Our
next
meeting
right
so
now,
I
would
like
to
request
a
motion
to
amend
the
agenda
to
remove
item
3K,
which
is
acceptance
of
the
October
27
2022
study
session.
Summary
that's
going
to
come
back
in
two
weeks
with
some
minor
modifications
and
then
to
add
item
8C
discussion
on
Council
appointments
to
the
library
district,
trustee
selection
committee.
G
B
We
have
a
motion
and
a
second
all
in
favor
use
your
hands.
Okay,
that's
unanimous!
The
agenda
has
been
amended
all
right,
so
now,
I'll
just
talk
about
what
we're
going
to
do
next
here.
Our
Council
rules
and
procedures
call
for
the
mayor,
Pro
tem,
to
be
elected
at
this
meeting
in
November,
but
we
do
have
two
excellent
candidates
and
we
do
have
two
absences
tonight,
including
one
of
the
candidates
council
member
wallet.
B
So
in
order
to
have
a
full
set
of
council
members
present
for
the
vote,
we
are
now
going
to
call
for
a
vote
to
suspend
our
rules
and
procedures
to
defer
the
election.
B
The
mayor,
Pro
tem
to
December
1st
and
then
to
extend
the
term
of
the
mayor,
Pro
tem
for
two
weeks,
because
that's
also
in
our
rules
and
procedures
that
it's
for
one
year
and
finally
to
continue
the
public
hearing
for
the
mayor,
Pro
tem
election
to
the
December
1st
2022
regular
meetings,
so
I
would
request
if
anyone's
so
willing
to
get
us
started
with
that.
First
motion
or
I
can
do
that
myself,
so
moved
I
I
think
we
probably
need
to
be
to
State.
It
out,
if
you
don't
mind
all.
H
Right
yep,
let
me
let
me
pull
it
up
here.
So
I
make
a
motion
to
suspend
the
council
rules
of
procedures,
section
4B
to
defer
the
election
of
Mayor
Pro
tem
to
the
December
1st
2022
regular
meeting.
Then,
would
you
like
me
to
to
incorporate
the
other
one
into
that
as
well?
I.
B
I
C
J
Sure
I'm
happy
to
but
believe
this
is
yeah.
This
is
one
beat
so
I
make
a
motion
to
suspend
the
council
rules
of
procedures,
section
four
D
to
extend
the
term
of
Mayor
Pro
tem
for
two
weeks
until
the
election
at
December,
1st
2022
meeting.
K
C
B
Got
a
motion
a
second
this
one
we
can
do
is
a
show
of
hands.
So
all
in
favor
the
motion
on
the
floor.
There
you
go
Matt.
Did
you
wanna?
Okay,
that's
unanimous!
There
that's
seven
to
zero
all
right!
So
thanks
everybody
for
working
through
that
and
I
didn't
neglect
information.
Our
other
excellent
candidate
is
council.
Member
spear
I
will
take
do
that
vote
in
two
weeks,
thanks
everyone
for
your
patience
and
moving
through
that,
and
now
we
can
go
on
to
our
declaration
for
small
business
Saturday
read
by
council
member
Yates.
L
Great,
thank
you
so
much
and
I
believe
that
we
have
Sharon
king
here
to
receive
this
virtually
receive
this
declaration.
I'll
introduce
Sharon
here
in
just
a
minute.
So
I
want
to
read
the
Declaration
on
behalf
of
council
for
small
business
Saturday,
which
will
be
November
26
2022.,
the
city
of
Boulder
celebrates
our
local
small
businesses
and
the
contributions
they
make
to
our
local
economy
and
our
community.
L
Therefore,
we,
the
city
council
of
the
city
of
Boulder,
Colorado,
declare
Saturday
November
26
2022
as
small
business
Saturday,
and
we
urge
the
residents
of
our
community
and
communities
across
the
country
to
support
small
businesses
and
Merchants
on
small
business
Saturday
and
throughout
the
year
and
with
that
declaration
I
want
to
introduce
I
hope.
She's
here
in
is
a
panelist
Sharon.
L
King
Sharon
has
been
the
head
of
the
small
division,
Business
Development
Center
here
in
Boulder
for
I,
don't
know
how
many
years
for
a
long
long
time
and
she
has
helped
so
many
small
businesses
get
launched
and
to
survive,
particularly
through
the
the
pandemic
and
I,
want
to
maybe
turn
it
over
to
Sharon.
To
maybe
say
a
few
words
about
the
importance
of
small
business
Saturday
coming
up
and
also
just
the
importance
of
all
small
businesses
here
in
our
community
Sharon.
M
Thank
you
very
much
Bob,
so
I'm.
Here,
it's
really
an
honor
to
be
here
on
behalf
of,
of
course,
all
of
our
small
businesses
and
Boulder
sbdc
Small
Business,
Development
Center.
This
is
a
mouthful
and
but
also
all
the
partner
organizations
that
collaborate
with
us
and
support
those
businesses
and
and
the
city
that
has
been
a
key
partner,
especially
during
covet.
M
Support
that
you've
shown
I
I
do
want
to
say
that
the
Declaration
for
small
business
Saturday
is
especially
meaningful,
because
it
demonstrates
that
the
city
and
Council
really
do
recognize
that
small
businesses
are
such
an
important
part
of
our
vibrant
economy,
and
we
know
that
they
come
in
all
types,
including
the
folks
that
you're
going
to
be
acknowledging
next,
some
of
whom
we
know
they're,
scalable
and
high
growth
and
can
become
very
important
parts
of
the
bigger
picture
economy
in
our
area,
including
the
local
companies
and
they're.
M
The
ones
would
think
of
when
we
think
of
small
business
Saturday.
The
restaurants
and
retailers
and
service
businesses
and
I
just
want
to
Echo
the
the
Declaration
that
I
hope,
I,
see
you
and
for
all
shopping
local
on
small
business,
Saturday
and
every
day
and
there's
another
group
that
we
don't
always
think
about,
and
it's
the
folks
that
are
launching
and
growing
a
micro
business,
sometimes
they're,
creating
their
own
job
or
a
couple
of
jobs
for
folks
they
know
and
it
in
many
cases
that
small
business
can
be
a
bridge
to
economic
sustainability.
M
M
B
Thanks
so
much
Sharon
for
that
and
for
your
many
years
of
service
to
our
small
business,
Community,
we're
extremely
grateful
and
we
will
see
you
out
there
on
small
business
Saturday.
Okay,
thank
you.
Take
care,
and
next
we're
going
to
go
to
council
member
Joseph
for
a
declaration
for
the
Colorado
companies
to
watch
month.
E
Thank
you
so
much
mayor,
Brockett
and
I'm,
actually
using
multiple
screens
in
order
to
keep
us
afloat.
So
please
bear
with
me
for
the
past
several
years,
we've
taken
a
few
minutes
at
City
Council
meetings
to
recognize
Colorado
companies
to
watch
Colorado
companies
to
watch
is
a
unique
program
that
recognizes
outstanding
second
stage,
companies
that
play
an
important
role
in
creating
jobs,
generating
Revenue,
developing
new
technologies
and
supporting
the
local
economy
worth
noting.
Second
stage,
companies
are
small
businesses
that
are
passed
the
startup
stage
and
focused
on
growth
rather
than
survival.
E
This
year
we
are
recognizing
both
2021
and
2022
Colorado
companies
to
watch
winners
from
Boulder.
These
small
fast-growing
businesses
represent
a
variety
of
Industries,
including
Aerospace
bioscience,
cyber
Security,
Financial,
Services,
manufacturing,
natural
and
organic
products
and
software,
and
they
reflect
Boulder
strength
and
Innovation
and
Entrepreneurship.
E
Four
of
the
companies
being
honored
today
are
able
to
join
us
after
the
Declaration.
The
Declaration
is
read.
Each
of
the

Representatives

So
here's
the

Boulder
color
Boulder
Colorado

month,
November
2022.,
the

of
Colorado,

in
2009
to

they

Boulder
benefits

The,
Innovation
and
and
entrepreneurial
Spirit
of
these

and
our
company
Insight
designs
has
been
making
websites
and
apps

our

just
finished
23
years

downtown
Boulder
and
we
love
the
the
lifestyle
and
the
balance
of

and
life

US

and
what

on
a

basis

N
We

and
we

watch.
So
thank

B
G
B
Thanks
Ryan
appreciate
the
introduction
to
Cloud
King
campaign
and
next
Jack
Elston
from
black
Swift
technology.
O
Yeah
much
appreciated,
thanks
for
having
us
here
guys
I'd
like
to
thank
Sharon
as
well
we're
one
of
the
people,
the
companies
that
have
benefited
from
a
lot
of
the
programs
that
she's
put
together
at
the
sbdc,
been
in
Boulder
since
2011
started
the
company,
basically
in
our
apartment,
I'm,
not
sure
it
was
zoned
for
that.
So
don't
hit
me
for
that.
Please,
but
just
building
autopilots
on
on
our
coffee
room
table
and
since
then,
we've
expanded
to
do
a
lot
of
very
interesting
things.
O
We
use
unmanned
aircraft
systems
for
all
sorts
of
different
scientific
campaigns.
We've
worked
with
NASA
I,
don't
know:
we've
done
campaigns
where
we've
sampled
hurricanes,
in
fact
having
participated
on
the
one
most
recently
had
a
two
launch
aircraft
go
down
into
that.
We
do
volcano
observations
with
the
USGS
we've
done
fights
over
wildfires.
So
that's
something
a
little
more
pertinent
closer
to
home
here
and
then
we've
also
done
tornado
chasing
Arctic
Ice
surveys.
O
B
Fantastic
stuff
and
a
zoning
enforcement
official
will
be
in
touch
with
you
shortly
about
your
past
offenses
just
kidding
just
kidding
and
now
we'll
finish
up
Trent
behind
from
rule
four.
P
Howdy
I'm
trying
Hein
I'm
co-ceo
of
rule
four,
and
we
are
just
starting
to
celebrate
our
fifth
year
in
business
here
in
Boulder
we're
a
cyber
security,
consultancy
and
I
I
want
to
thank
Council
and
the
city
for
making
Boulder
such
an
amazing
place.
At
the
end
of
the
day,
we're
a
people,
business
and
Boulder,
just
like
Beth
mentioned
Boulder,
allows
us
to
attract
the
very
best
talent
in
the
world.
So
so
thank
you
for
all
of
your
efforts
and
thank
you
for
this
recognition
and
honor.
B
That's
great
to
hear
Trent
thanks.
So
much
well
really
appreciate
all
of
you
being
here
and
congratulations
again
for
your
extraordinary
work.
That's
been
recognized
by
the
governor,
so
take
care
and
have
a
good
night.
B
Okay,
that
was
really
cool.
Now
we
are
going
to
move
to
open
comment
and
so
I
believe
Ryan
is
going
to
go
over
our
public
participation
guidelines
here.
Q
Thank
you.
My
name
is
Ryan
Hanson
I
serve
our
community
as
an
engagement
manager
and
I
want
to
welcome
all
the
community
members
who
are
here
this
evening
here
to
speak.
An
open
comment
or
public
hearing
and
I
want
to
be
sure
to
share
that
the
city
has
engaged
with
community
members
to
co-create
a
vision
for
productive,
meaningful
and
inclusive
Civic
conversations.
Q
Q
Q
Participants
are
required
to
sign
up
to
speak
using
the
name.
They're
commonly
known
by,
and
individuals
must
display
their
whole
name
before
being
allowed
to
speak
online,
and
currently
only
audio
testimony
is
permitted
on
line
and
want
to
note
that
if
you
have
a
presentation,
please
wait
a
few
beats
for
that
presentation
to
come
up.
The
presentation
will
come
up
before
the
timer
and
then
your
time
to
speak
will
begin.
B
Thank
you
Ryan
all
right,
so
we've
got
20
people
signed
up
for
open
comment
and
folks
will
each
get
two
minutes
and
you're
welcome
to
speak
on
whatever
topic
you
choose
other
than
one
of
the
two
public
hearing
topics,
so
please
do
not
address
the
6500
annexation,
Arapaho
annexation
or
the
Disposable
bag
fee,
but
anything
else
is
fair
game.
Our
first
three
speakers
are
Patrick
Murphy,
Leslie,
Rhodes
and
Michelle
Michael
Zoo.
R
My
name
is
Patrick
Murphy,
2A
and
2B
passed
with
about
70
percent
of
the
vote,
but
the
muni
had
similar
results
and
remember
how
that
ended.
So
here
we
go
again:
the
planet,
Burns
floods
and
dies,
while
Boulder
fiddles
with
climate
change,
I
watched
the
boulder
Excel
advisory
panel
on
Monday
and
was
impressed
with
excel's
efforts
and
saddened
by
some
panel
members
that
are
still
baffled,
especially
with
respect
to
the
topic.
R
A
Renewables
connect
that
Excel
has
offered
as
a
subscription
Boulder
could
have
subscribed
to
this
Ultra
economical
connection
to
Renewables
a
decade
ago,
but
the
muni
lust,
blinded
us
with
Promises
of
tons
of
income,
the
illegal
taking
of
customers
and
properties
outside
of
Boulder
and
lies
about
zero
stranded
costs
slide.
Two
Boulder's
current
climate
leader
was
spending
about
70
percent
and
up
to
85
percent
of
his
time,
working
on
the
muni
instead
of
actual
carbon
mitigation
50
to
40
percent
of
the
current
climate
action
budget
is
paychecks
and
there's
no
honest
cost
benefit
analysis.
R
That
gives
us
a
true
cost
per
ton
of
carbon
reduction.
I
want
carbon
reduction
fast
and
honestly
documented
No,
Such
Thing
exists
in
2A
or
2B.
The
recent
claims
of
Boulder's
carbon
reduction
tied
the
fact
that
most
of
that's
due
to
excel's
additional
Renewables,
not
Boulders,
separate
actions.
What
we're
getting
is
a
road
paved
with
good
intentions,
and
we
already
know
where
that
road
leads
slide.
Three
fewer
employee,
paychecks,
more
solar
incentives,
wind
incentives
which
Boulder
has
never
offered
wrecks,
which
Boulder
denigrates
an
energy
use
reduction
or
what
we
really
need.
R
B
S
City
council,
my
name
is
Michael
I'm
a
boulder
resident
and
tonight
I'd
like
to
talk
to
you
about
tennis
and
Boulder.
So
tennis
facilities,
right
now
in
Boulder,
are
aren't
matching
the
needs
of
older
residents
So.
S
Currently
we
have
a
lot
of
pocket
Parks,
so
with
two
courts
that
are
distributed
throughout
the
city
and
that
really
doesn't
support
adult
leagues,
Regional
tournaments
to
CU
women's
and
Club
teams,
high
school
teams,
Junior
and
adult
drills
and
families
and
seniors-
and
you
know,
if
you're,
a
casual
tennis
player
that
plays
a
couple
of
times
a
year,
probably
works
fine.
S
But
if
you're
you
know
want
to
play
with
any
regularity,
it's
pretty
difficult,
and
actually
it's
gotten
to
the
point
where
players
that
are
based
in
Boulder
actually
are
playing
in
Longmont
Lafayette,
Arvada,
Broomfield,
they're,
actually
driving
back
and
forth
to
play,
and
actually
other
teams
from
around
in
surrounding
towns
won't
even
come
to
Boulder
to
play
tennis
matches
because
of
the
poor
Court
conditions
or
the
inability
to
find
core
time.
Add
to
that
also,
we
don't
really
really
have
great
year-round
facilities
and
we
don't
have
lighted
courts.
S
So
you
know,
starting
in
October,
for
me,
I
have
a
nine
to
five
and
the
sun
sets
at
5.
45
I
really
can't
play
starting
in
October.
If
you
look
at
public
rec
centers,
you
know,
pickleball
has
gotten
really
popular,
which
is
great.
S
Pickleball
is
a
great
sport,
but
it
does
mean
that
tennis,
court
availability
has,
you
know,
become
even
more
of
a
problem
than
it
was
before,
and
private
facilities
have
an
average
five-year
wait
for
clubs
around
Boulder
and
substantial
yearly,
Financial
commitments
and
initiation
fees,
and
that
five-year
wait
means
that
you
know
if
you're
a
kid
who's
13-
and
this
has
happened
quite
a
bit-
and
you
discovered
that
you'd
like
to
play
tennis
well
by
the
time
that
you
can
actually
get
to
a
club
you're
going
to
be
too
old
to
play
as
a
junior
and
with
the
impending
closure
of
rntc,
the
Rocky
Mountain
Tennis
Center
next
year
and
it's
15
courts,
five
of
which
are
really
great
indoor
courts,
wheelchair
CU
club
and
women's
junior
senior
National
tournaments
and
the
200
plus
members
of
rmtc
are
going
to
have
really
really
limited
options.
S
So
we're
not
just
here
with
problems,
we're
also
here
with
a
potential
solution,
and
my
ask
is
that
the
city
council
police
work
with
the
boulder
tennis
Association
and
the
racket
Force
community
in
finding
a
land
for
a
new
facility
and
given
the
demand
in
Boulder
for
tennis,
your
time
is.
B
T
Hi,
my
name
is
Jennifer
Rhodes
I'm
here
on
behalf
of
the
specific
group
of
parents
for
safe
zones
around
schools,
my
petition,
which
has
over
1500
signatures
and
her
parent
group,
is
for
enforcing
safe
zones
and
stiffer
penalties
within
the
zones.
Our
group
is
organized
in
met
in
small
groups.
The
D.A
chief
of
police,
Municipal,
Court
members
of
bbsd
and
we've
been
in
touch
with
some
of
you.
T
I
have
three
topics:
one
the
sharps
container,
adjacent
to
Boulder,
High
I'm,
all
for
a
Sharps
container,
because
clearly
we
have
a
drug
problem,
but
placing
it
adjacent
to
a
school
is
just
asinine,
you're,
basically
inviting
drug
users
to
come
closer
to
the
school
to
deposit
needles,
whose
idea
was
that
two,
no
day,
shelter
or
similar
facility
has
demonstrated
any
measurable
success
at
any
ending
or
alleviating
the
cost
burden
of
homelessness.
Why
go
directly
against
the
recommendations
of
Housing
and
Human
Services
director
Kurt
fernhaber?
Why
do
you
think
you
can
stop
a
national
crisis
alone?
T
Speaking
as
a
psychiatrist
who
treats
the
mentally
ill,
you
need
to
collaborate
with
the
entire
County
to
get
improved
addiction
and
Behavioral
Health
Services.
Simply
moving
people
from
the
creek
to
the
shelter
for
the
day
is
not
going
to
make
any
measurable
differences.
Three
Municipal
Court
is
enabling
a
percentage
of
the
unhoused
to
continue
to
break
the
law
without
consequences
he
met
with
Municipal
Court
I
asked
them.
T
If
someone
has
50
citations
for
camping,
engages
with
a
court
and
the
prosecutor
finds
out
that
there
was
a
warrant
out
for
his
arrest
for
a
violent
crime,
would
they
report
him
to
PD?
They
said
no,
they
repeated,
they
don't
believe
in
consequences.
They
said
that
they
were
more
interested
in.
They
were
not
interested
in
consequences
for
repeat
offenders
and
would
not
explore
the
concept
of
enhanced
penalties
with
exclusionary
zones
such
as
school.
T
No
consequences
I
asked
what
would
they
recommend
then,
to
parents
like
myself
who
have
teenage
daughters
walking
to
school
and
around
town
they
recommended
teaching
my
daughters,
how
to
identify
unstable
people
and
avoid
them
teach
my
12
and
14
year
old
girls
how
to
protect
themselves.
Basically,
I
want
those
of
you
who
have
little
children
to
think
about
what
this
approach
means
for
your
kids
10
years
from
now.
How
will
you
feel
when
your
kids
are
walking
around
the
city
without
you
holding
their
hands.
B
Okay,
thank
you.
Jennifer
we've
got
making
calls
and
then
Shannon,
Derby
and
then
Leslie
Rhodes
is
now
in
the
meeting.
U
V
Making
calls
one
year
ago,
Boulder
City
Council
asked
the
developer
of
papillio
to
provide
more
and
smaller
housing
units
at
the
site
of
Folsom
between
Spruce
and
pearl.
You
also
wanted
for
sale
rather
than
rental
units
that
were
smaller
and
less
expensive.
Papillio
has
done
what
the
city
asked,
presenting
the
revised
project
to
planning
board
November

slide
two
please.
V
In
the
new
proposal
there
are
many
more
units
that
will
be
smaller,
less
expensive
and
for
sale.
There
were
64
units
before
and
now
there
are
101.
there
were
eight
affordable
units
before
and
now
there
are
28
and
there
were
18
for
sale
units
before
and
now,
they're
101.,
but
there's
something
that
may
kill
this
project
a
requirement
not
imposed
on
a
rental
project,
mainly
that
half
of
the
affordable
units
be
built
on
site.
That

Four,
please
calls
for
prompt
action.
Please
enable
this
project,
which
was
not
welcomed
by
the
three
senior
planning
board
members
and
ask
staff
when
they
bring
you
the
site,
review
revisions
in
December
to
remove
the
provision
that
makes
it
impossible
to
do
a
four-story
for
sale
housing
project
because
of
the
penalty
exacted
for
affordable
housing.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
again.
W
W
W
We
feel
like
we're
losing
something
that's
important
to
us
and
we
want
you
to
hear
how
it
feels
I
have
a
hundred-year-old
client
who
still
plays
tennis
with
no
public
places
to
play
with
rmtc
going
away.
She
can't
wait
on
a
wait
list.
We
have
kids
that
want
to
play.
We
have
middle-aged
people,
you
can't
see
me
but
I'm
plenty
middle-aged.
W

My
friend
Kendall
is
going
to
speak
to
you
also
this
evening,
because
we
care
we're
passionate,
we're
passionate
about
what
we
do
and
we're
passionate
about
our
city,
and
we
want
you
to
feel
that
also,
and
we
want
you
to
work
with
us,
we
need
you,
we
have
a
lot
going
for
us,
we've
been
working
on
it,
but
we
need
the
city,
we
need
your
help
and
we
want
to
work
together
and
we
look
forward
to
making
that
happen.
Thank
you.

Hello,
my
name
is
Leslie,
Rhodes
and
I'm
here
this
evening,
as
a
participant
in
the
group
to
initiate
safe
zones
for
schools
and
kids
approaching
this
concern
from
the
perspective
of
a
mother
and
a
school
social
worker,
a
child's
School
experience
doesn't
just
start
and
end
within
the
bounds
of
school
property.
X
X
Only
are
these
students
but
they're
still
children.
Everyone
in
this
room
can
agree.
We
value
children
of
all
ages
in
the
community
and
we
want
to
ensure
they're
safe
and
that
they
feel
safe.
How
we
go
about
this
issue
might
be
it
for
a
debate,
but
our
objective
is
the
same.
This
is
not
one
group's
battle.
Rather
it's
our
agreed
upon
Collective
Mission
from
parents
to
law
enforcement
to
city
council
to
bvsd.
No
one
wins.
If
safety
isn't
the
priority,
I
don't
win.
X
The
group
I'm
representing
this
evening
has
data-driven
evidence
to
support
our
request
and
we're
proposing
objective
measures
to
address
this
problem.
Please
take
a
look
at
the
objectives
again,
if
there's
an
issue
you
can
get
behind
on
this
help
us
rally
for
it.
If
you
notice
a
sinking,
Point
bring
it
to
us
with
an
alternative
starting
point:
let's
just
really
try
to
collectively
work
together
to
make
the
areas
around
all
schools
safer.
B
Thank
you,
Leslie.
Your
time
is
up
now
we
have
Kendall

Can
anyone

me?
Yes,

you
I'm,
sorry
about

Tech
issues.
First,
allow
me
to
introduce
myself.
My
name
is
Kendall
chitamber
I'm,
one
of
the
managing
owners
of
the
Rocky
Mountain
Tennis
Center,
one
of
the
Decades
longer
long
committed
tennis
providers
of
the
Boulder
Community
I
gotta,
say
my
backhand's,
pretty
good
I'm,
not
a
public
speaker,
I'm,
more
comfortable,
coaching,
Center
Court
of
the
US

This
being
here
so
bear
with
me.
Y
That
said,
I
I
am
absolutely
honored
to
to
be
here
to
talk
to
you
today,
even
briefly,
because
this
subject
is
so
vital
to
me.
I
hope
it
will
be
to
you
too.
It's
still
available,
so
many
of
us
in
the
community
Michael
and
Shannon.
My
my
friends
in
the
tennis
community
spoke
earlier
about
it.
I've
been
privileged
to
be
part
of
this
community.
Y
Since
1999.,
my
daughter
went
to
Foothill
Elementary
Casey
Middle
School
in
Boulder
high
school
she's,
a
two-time
state
champion,
5A
tennis
for
for
Boulder
High,
first
girl
in
history
to
win
the
State
title
in
Boulder
and
for
Boulder
high
and
and
so
it
was
she
and
we
as
a
family,
owe
so
much
to
the
the
family
community
here
in
Boulder,
and
it's
just
it's
a
privilege
to
be
here
to
speak
on
behalf
of
the
sport
I've
had
a
chance
to
see
tennis
through
a
particular
lens.
Y
That's
what
I
want
to
discuss.
Briefly,
we've
been
running
a
a
well-intentioned
tennis
community
called
Rocky
Mount
Tennis
Center,
for
since
2012
it
was
the
Millennium
Harvest
House.
Before
that
we
specialize
in
everything
I've
taughtens
of
recreational
Juniors,
high-level,
aspirins,
College
potentials.
We
started
a
program
for
athletes
with
disabilities
in
wheelchair
tennis,
and
that's
one
one
thing
I'm
most
proud
of
is
our
high
performance
sense
program
which
integrates
able-bodied
kids
and
kids
with
disabilities.
I've
got
I'm
I'm.
Y
Actually,
speaking
from
our
tennis
bubble,
right
now,
I've
got
a
a
one
of
our
best
wheelchair
tennis
players.
She
played
the
US
Open
Juniors
this
year.
Just
very
exciting
moment
for
us,
but
it's
also
a
sad
moment
as
as
Shannon
Illustrated
earlier
we're
about
to
lose
our
facility.
B
Z
Good
evening
city
council,
when
Boulder
says
that
housing
is
for
everyone
and
safety
is
for
everyone,
that
is
a
Lie.
The
only
thing
that
the
city
of
Boulders
seems
to
care
about
and
throw
their
money
at
is
a
homeless
drug
addict,
with
a
lengthy
criminal
record
that
is
who
can
get
a
house
I
am
a
single
mom.

You
should

Also
Bob
Yates!
You
don't
care
about
me
and
my
house
I,
don't
care
about
your
newsletter.
So
please
stop
sending
it
to
me
because
it's
as
useless
as
you
sitting
there
and
not
doing
anything
and
as
far
as
Nicole
and
the
Lauren
woman,
you
guys
as
women.
Z
You
do
not
have
a
clue
what
goes
on
out
here,
because
if
you
did
and
if
you
actually
walked
around
Goose
Trail
and
got
to
see
the
needles,
the
garbage,
the
feces,
the
nonsense
that
goes
on
here
continuously
I
think
we
would
start
sitting
here
and
going.
Yes,
we
are
going
to
add
eighty
thousand
dollars
to
the
budget
to
pick
up
the
trash,
because
I'm,
really
sick
and
tired
of
living
around
it
and
the
idea
that
affordable
housing
and
the
safety
nets
that
are
provided
are
actually
here.
Z
For
people
like
me
who
work
and
pay
taxes
is
an
absolute
lie
and
pile
of
garbage
unless
I'm
a
drug
addict
or
a
sexual
predator,
which
you
have
47
of
them,
who
use
the
boulder
homeless,
shelter
or
the
jail
as
an
address.
Thank
you
for
doing
nothing.
Most
of
you
are
failures,
except
for
two
of
you,
and
you
know
who
you
are
good
day.
B
Oops,
that's
probably
I'll
just
remind
folks
from
our
rules
of
decorum
that
we
ask
people
not
to
make
personal
attacks
on
community
members
or
staff
members
and
just
remind
people
about
that.
As
we
move
forward
with
the
rest
of
the
testimony,
we
have

AA
AB
Thank
you
for
your
time.
Council
members.
My
name
is
liraz
Bergman,
Turner
and
I'm
a
resident
and
homeowner
in
the
Ridgely
Hills
neighborhood.
My
small
business
has
been
in
North
Boulder
for
the
last
11
years.
I
love,
Boulder
I,
moved
to
this
neighborhood,
where
I
am
right
now,
two
years
ago,
for
the
quality
of
life
for
the
view
for
The,
Quiet
surroundings
and
tranquility.
AB
Let's
get
it
straight.
I
support,
affordable
housing,
modular
homes
and
Habitat
for
Humanity
wholeheartedly,
but
I
will
not
support
a
project
that
will
hurt
my
own
and
my
family's
quality
of
life.
The
6500
Arapahoe,
Factory
and
Manufacturing
project
is
preposterous
per
Preposterous.
Well,
you
got
what
I
what
I
meant?
It's
it's
trying
to
Aid
one
section
of
the
population
while
hurting
a
few
others.
The
whole
zoning
issue
sounds
to
me
like
a
small
loophole
for
the
bvsd,
but
it's
it
could
be
a
great
hell
hole
for
us.
AB
It
feels
to
me
and
many
others
that
this
proposed
Factory
project
bluntly
disregard
the
residents
of
Ridgely
healed
neighborhood
disregards
the
Columbine
mobile
home
park
residents
that
will
need
to
endure
the
heavy
traffic,
disregarding
the
wildlife
in
the
open
space
habitat
in
the
open
space
buffer,
the
sombrero
Marsh,
the
environment,
disturbances,
the
severe
noise
and
light
pollution,
the
unnecessary
fumes
and
and
dust.
My
job
is
not
to
find
the
alternative
place
to
have
this
project
running.
My
job
is
to
protect
my
lair.
AB
The
quality
of
my
family's
life
is
at
stake
here,
and
the
value
of
my
property
is
at
risk
as
well.
The
phase
one
environment,
site
assessment
found
no
evidence
of
significant
impact
on
the
quality
of
human
environment.
I
want
to
see
a
full
transparency
regarding
all
reports.
I
would
love
to
see
a
report
from
an
acoustical
engineer
that
will
show
me
that
the
noise
will
not
produce
that
the
the
factory
will
produce
will
not
impact
the
marsh
habitat
or
disturb
my
Monday
to
Friday
7
A.M.
Thank.
B
You
for
your
testimony
and
I'll
just
note
the
the
public
hearing
on
6500
repos
coming
later
this
evening.
We
will
remember
your
test
when
we
get
there.
I
was
a
little
slow
there.
If
anyone
else
is
speaking
on
the
6500
repo
and
open
government
I'll
ask
you
to
wait
till
the
public
hearing,
but
thank
you
for
your
testimony
and
now
Travis
Laberge
Gary
Pollard
is
not
present.
Then
relieve
Turner
and
Mark
Grassman.
AC
Can
you
hear
me?
Yes,
thank
you.
My
name
is
Travis
leverge
and
I'm.
The
executive
director
and
founder
of
prolando
school
of
musical
arts
carlando's
been
providing
Outreach
in
Boulder
for
almost
20
years,
we've
been
offering
music
lessons
and
classes
in
the
dairy
Arts
Center
for
over
15
years.
At
a
council
meeting
last
month,
I
outlined
many
of
the
Outreach
programs.
Orlando
provides
to
both
the
residents
due
in
large
parts
for
General
operating
support.
We
received
from
the
boulder
Arts
Commission
as
I
said
last
month.
AC
Arts
organizations
need
more
funding
to
provide
better
programming
to
otherwise
does
not
happen.
General
operating
support
is
the
Catalyst
that
makes
this
possible.
Understandably,
the
Arts
commission
enforces
a
rigorous
vetting
process
through
a
competitive
Grant
application
cycle
to
ensure
that
funds
are
only
being
given
to
organizations
that
meet
a
high
threshold
of
quality
value
to
our
community
and
financial
transparency.
However,
because
of
limited
funding,
not
all
organizations
that
meet
these
stringent
criteria
are
funded.
AC
Additionally
the
office
of
arts
and
culture
has
ample
data,
demonstrating
that
the
return
on
investment
for
funding
the
Arts
is
dramatic.
Giving
money
to
the
Arts
is
not
charity.
It's
an
investment
in
our
community
that
more
than
pays
for
itself.
Please
fund
the
Arts
as
aggressively
as
possible
to
share
our
community
will
be
richer
for
it.
Thank
you
for
your
consideration.
In
your
time,.
B
Thank
you
Travis
that
we
have
review
Turner,
Mark,
Grassman
and
Matt
Hess.
B
You
could
wait
till
the
public
hearing
review
then
we'll
get
you
slotted
in
there.
Thank
you
for
your
flexibility.
Sure
thanks
great
thanks.
So
now,
Mark
Grassman,
Matt,
Hess
and
Lynn
Siegel.
AE
Can
you
hear
me
now?
Yes,
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
to
the
council
tonight.
My
name
is
Mark
Grassman
and
I
love
to
play
tennis
I'm,
also
disabled
I'm,
here,
to
urge
the
council
to
consider
more
Public
Funding
for
tennis
courts
in
the
city,
I've
been
a
resident
for
over
40
years
and
have
played
on
public
courts
regularly.
During
that
time
there
are
courts
at
the
local
recreation,
centers
and
public
schools,
but
they
are
often
not
accessible
to
wheelchair
tennis
players.
AE
AE
The
wheelchair
tennis
program
at
Rocky,
Mountain
Tennis
Center,
is
the
only
one
in
the
state
that
features
coaching
and
sanctioned
tournaments.
Their
courts
are
accessible
and
they
provide
instruction
and
regular
playing
opportunities
for
wheelchair
tennis.
While
they
are
a
private,
Tennis
Club.
They
encourage
and
accept
non-member
participation
in
their
programs.
AE
Hopefully,
the
Rocky
Mountain
Tennis
Center
will
be
able
to
continue
its
programs
that
benefit
so
many
people
in
the
city
and
the
university
and
will
be
able
to
replace
its
Tennis
Courts
at
CU
South.
The
dozens
of
tennis
courts
associated
with
these
entities
will
soon
be
gone.
I
encourage
the
council
to
begin
researching
the
possibility
of
a
public-private
partnership
to
build
a
facility
that
will
increase
tennis
opportunities
in
Boulder
for
everyone,
as
well
as
the
disabled.
An
excellent
example
of
this
kind
of
project
would
be
the
Apex
Tennis
Center
in
Arvada.
AE
G
U
Thank
you,
I've
run
for
city
council
and
for
boards
back
in
2003,
but
you
know
these
days,
I
couldn't
do
it.
I
don't
have
the
time.
I
follow
eight
City
boards
and
the
and
city
council-
and
you
know
where
you're
failing
here,
it's
so
horrible
with
this,
how
the
8
000
square
foot
house
that's
being
demolished
at
Flagstaff
and
Baseline,
this
historic
home
the
and
it's
your
responsibility
but
I
hear
since
it
passed
straight
through
landmark's
design,
Review
Committee,
which
is
not
recorded
and
and
has
full
Dominion.
U
They
have
more
power
than
the
city
council.
That
is
stunning
to
me.
That's
the
end
of
our
landmarks
in
Boulder.
You
know
if
things
like
this
can
happen
when
we
lose
James,
Hewitt
and
Marcy
Cameron
right
right.
At
the
same
time
as
well,
institutional
knowledge
is
gone,
and
so
is
our
landmarks.
The
things
that
make
this
city
visually.
You
know
rememberant
of
all
of
the
history
here
so
regards
Folsom
and
Pearl.
U
I
know
that
you
wanted
to
get
things
cheaper
for,
for
you
know,
people
who
are
less
able
to
afford,
but
you're
making
it
much
worse
by
not
agreeing
to
the
original
concept
plan
by
agreeing
to
go
higher,
makes
things
more
expensive
in
Boulder,
which
is
exactly
what
the
developer
complained
about
in
the
first
place.
So
this
is
a
catch-22
situation.
It's
a
paradox:
you're,
making
things
worse
by
trying
to
make
them
better
all
good
intent,
but
it's
it's
the
opposite
of
what
you're
in
can
what
you're
actually
going
to
get
out
of
it?
U
My
friend
said
today
went
out
East
Walnut
and
saw
jobs
everywhere
and
just
for
rent
signs
and
that's
what
we've
got
to
stop
balance
jobs.
Housing
done.
B
Q
AF
Good
morning,
good
afternoon,
everyone
can
you
hear
me:
can
you
nod
your
head?
If
you
hear
me,
thank
you
I'm
having
flashbacks
now,
because
I
was
a
city
hall
reporter
all
over
the
country,
back
in
the
1970s
and
80s
and
I'm
looking
at
your
faces
and
thinking
wow.
Thank
you
so
much
for
having
to
sit
through
this
every
every
month,
twice
a
month
whatever
it
is
I'm
here
to
really
plead
with
you
to
help
us
in
the
Arts
community
in
Boulder,
receive
more
funding.
AF
I
sit
on
the
board
of
the
boulder
ballet
and
I
think
that
I
was
thinking
a
long
time
about
what
I
wanted
to
say
to
you,
and
it
really
goes
back
to
my
own
history.
I
grew
up
on
the
south
side
of
Chicago
and
really
fell
into
a
bad
crowd
in
my
teenage
years,
and
my
mother
was
extremely
depressed.
My
father
was
away
from
the
house
and
I
think
my
life
was
saved
by
the
Arts.
AF
A
friend
of
mine
dragged
me
to
audition
missions
for
a
musical
at
my
high
school
and
from
that
point
on
the
Arts
really
Lifted
Me
Out
of
the
kind
of
misery
I
was
in
and
so
I
guess
I
wanted
to
ask
you.
You
know
to
really
think
of
the
Arts
as
more
than
just
something
that
is
marginal,
or
that
is
just
charity
alone.
AF
We
employ
people
in
the
community,
we
employ
a
lot
of
dancers
and
we've
really
struggled
through
the
pandemic
to
make
ends
meet
and
we've
been
around
for
such
a
long
time
we're
celebrating
our
40th
anniversary
this
year,
and
yet
we
have
no
funding
and
we
really
really
need
it.
So
I
wanted
to
just
kind
of
summarize
by
saying
this
is
a
wonderful
City
that
deserves
a
wonderful
ballet
and
a
wonderful
Arts
community
and
again,
thank
you
all
for
your
service.
I
appreciate
it.
AG
AG
AG
AG
This
past
September,
we
uphold
the
weekly
published
an
in-depth
Arts
guide,
leading
off
with
this
quote
from
Lori
Preston
at
the
Museum
of
Boulder,
quote
I'm,
going
to
give
you
a
little
slice
of
reality,
and
that
is
we
lose
right
now,
fifty
thousand
dollars
a
month,
we
at
Creek
Boulder,
are
requesting
three
hundred
thousand
dollars
additional
for
rehearsal
performance
space,
rentals
artists
and
general
operating
support
is
equal
percentage.
Increase
of
funding
is
not
the
same
as
equity.
AG
We
need
to
do
more
to
bring
these
Arts
organizations
up
to
parity
with
high
inflation.
Bringing
Arts
organizations
up
to
survivability
is
essential
when
we
have
done
such
an
investment,
we
will
make
it
possible
that
perhaps
in
two
or
three
years
our
our
or
God
I
can't
speak
tonight.
I'm
sorry,
our
Arts
organizations
can
once
more
flourish
and
bring
bold
at
a
high
level
of
creativity,
arts
and
culture.
We
promote
as
an
essential
component
of
Boulder's
high
quality
of
life.
Thank
you
so
much
good
night.
B
Thank
you,
friends,
I
appreciate
that
all
right.
That
brings
us
to
the
end
of
open
comments,
so
I
will
turn
to
City
staff
to
see
if
there
are
any
follow-up
comments.
AH
Thanks
mayor
I
want
to
take
a
moment
to
apologize
to
staff
I
recognize
that
the
work
we
do
as
a
city
can
be
controversial
and
I
certainly
recognize.
There
can
be
differences
of
opinion
as
we
go
about
our
work.
AH
Having
said
that,
I'll
ask
our
Parks
and
Rec
director
Ali
Rhodes
to
address
what
appears
to
be
a
hot
button
topic
tonight.
Tennis.
B
Well
before
Mary,
just
thank
you
for
that
statement.
I
just
want
to
Echo
that
from
from
the
mayor
and
I'm
sure
members
of
council
how
much
we
appreciate
the
incredibly
hard
work
and
high
quality
work
of
City
staff.
AH
I'll
ask
Ali
to
discuss
tennis
who
knew
it
was
going
to
be
a
Hot
Topic
today,
I
guess
you
do.
AI
Well,
we
know
we're
we're
very
aware
that
it's
a
topic
in
the
community
good
eating
everyone-
I
am
Ali
Rhodes
I
serve
as
the
communities
Parks
and
Recreation
director,
and
luckily
we
just
finished
a
community-wide
process
to
provide
direction
for
how
we
provide
services,
and
so
everything
I'm
about
to
tell
you
comes
from
the
recent
and
unanimously
approved
Parks
and
Recreation
master
plan.
AI
So
first
I
want
to
make
sure
everyone's
aware.
We
are
engaged
in
this
conversation
we're
paying
attention.
We
know
that
both
tennis
and
pickleball
are
growing.
We
know
that
folks
are
very
concerned
about
a
level
of
change
in
the
the
service
in
the
community,
given
the
Redevelopment
at
the
Millennium
and
giving
potential
changes
at
CU,
and
so
you
know,
while
we
know
from
our
Master
planning
process,
most
community
members
think
we
have
the
right
number
of
tennis
courts
for
folks.
AI
Like
those
you
listen
to
tonight,
there's
a
lot
of
concern
and
so
here's
what
we're
doing.
First,
around
the
condition
and
quality
of
the
current
courts.
We
have
28
courts
that
we
operate,
maintain
and
starting
with
2023
we've
reallocated
200
000
a
year
to
take
care
of
those
courts
better
we're
behind
in
maintenance
and
we're
going
to
try
and
do
better
with
that.
AI
AI
The
master
plan
also
directs
us
to
maximize
benefit
through
our
joint
use
agreements
with
the
Boulder
Valley
School
District,
and
we've
done
that.
So
as
we've
worked,
and
we
have
a
recently
updated
joint
use
agreement,
we've
talked
to
the
school
district
and
their
tennis
facilities
are
designed
for
high-level
tennis
play
and
they've
committed
that
they
won't
be
painting
pickleball
lines
on
those
Courts
for
some
of
the
high-level
players
you
heard
from
tonight.
Those
pickleball
lines
are
not
preferred,
and
so
the
school
district
courts
will
will
not
have
pickleball
lines.
AI
We've
also
tried
to
secure
Community
Access
to
courts
through
that
agreement
so
that
they
can
be
open
to
the
community.
Now
a
key
tenet
of
the
Parks
and
Recreation
work
is
Partnerships.
I
have
had
multiple
meetings
in
the
last
six
months,
probably
with
Folks
at
Rocky
Mountain
tennis
center,
with
Folks
at
Coburn
development,
who
are
the
developers
at
the
Millennium
with
Folks
at
the
boulder
tennis
Association
and
the
newly
formed
Boco
pickleball
club.
AI
We
have
told
all
of
them
that
we
are
interested
in
this
conversation
that
we
would
love
to
determine
if
and
how
we
should
partner
on
a
racket
facility
in
Boulder.
The
ask
of
you
tonight
was
to
direct
us
to
to
give
them
land.
AI
I
would
ask
you
not
to
do
that
and
allow
us
to
be
thoughtful
in
the
conversation
that
we're
engaged
in
where
we
will
do
a
level
of
service
analysis
to
determine
if
and
how
we
should
be
a
part
of
this
conversation,
and
then
we
can
talk
about
if
there's
any
land
that
might
be
appropriate.
There
is
no
concept
planned
currently
in
our
system,
that
that
indicates
the
need
for
a
racket
facility
and
to
repurpose
any
land
should
be
thoughtful
and
should
include
Community
conversation.
AI
It's
not
something
that's
going
to
happen
quickly,
and
so
we've
asked
for
folks
patience,
ways
that
they
can
support.
The
conversation
is
to
consider
the
requirements
such
a
facility
might
have.
One
of
the
speakers
tonight
mentioned
some
of
the
models
Apex
in
Arvada
is
a
great
model.
Steamboat
has
a
great
facility
that
was
co-created
with
community
members.
Exploring
those
models
and
helping
to
think
about
governance
and
operations
would
be
a
great
way
folks
can
support.
While
we
do
the
work,
we
need
to
do
to
be
thoughtful.
Stewards
of
public
lands.
B
H
Thanks
yeah
I
just
wanted
to
to
kind
of
remind
the
community,
and
maybe
all
of
us
that
were
a
city
of
over
100,
000
people
and
I,
don't
think
we're
ever
going
to
be
able
to
agree
on
anything,
especially
issues
that
are
as
complicated
as
something
like
homelessness,
but
whether
we
like
it
or
not,
we're
still
living
in
community
with
each
other
and
attacking
each
other's
commitment
to
our
community
doesn't
help
achieve
our
share
goals.
Nor
does
dismissing
each
other's
concerns.
I
really
do
hear
people's
frustration
with
our
homelessness
situation.
H
We
all
see
it
too.
Many
of
us
are
on
the
bike
paths
multiple
times
each
week
we
see
everything
that
the
community
is
seeing
as
well
and
I
really
genuinely
wish
that
we
had
the
resources
to
make
things
better
with
a
snap
of
our
fingers,
but
just
because
we
don't
have
that,
it
doesn't
mean
that
our
city
staff
is
actively
trying
to
avoid
addressing
our
challenges.
H
We
are
all
doing
the
best
that
we
can
right
now
with
what
we
are
given
and
I
just
want
to
honor
that,
and
you
know
again
apologize
as
Nuria
did
to
our
city
staff.
I
really
hope
that
as
we
move
forward
and
as
a
community,
we
can
continue
to
discuss
these
heart
issues
in
a
way
that
recognizes
that
we're
going
to
move
forward
a
lot
faster
if
we're
working
as
allies
rather
than
as
enemies.
H
I
Thank
you,
Erin
one
of
the
community
members
brought
up
working
with
the
county,
particularly
on
human,
some
Human,
Service
and
homelessness
issues.
I
believe
that
we
are
in
the
process
of
trying
to
schedule
a
meeting
with
County
Commissioners.
Can
someone.
I
Great
thank
you.
I
also
wanted
to
hear
a
little
bit
more
making
Coles
brought
up
that
there's
a
site
review
criteria
requiring
half
create
requiring
when
there
are
four
sale
units
on
a
property
that
half
of
the
affordable
units
be
provided
on
site.
I
was
wondering
if
he
could
go
into
a
little
bit
more
detail
on
that,
just
something
that
I
wanted
to
fly
and
understand
a
little
bit
more.
B
V
I
Oh,
you
had
just
mentioned
a
site
review
criteria
about
half
of
the
affordable
units
being
required
to
be
built
on
site.
It's
just
not
a
rule
that
I
was
familiar
with
and
I
was
hoping.
You
could
maybe
provide
a
little
bit
more
detail
about
that.
I.
V
H2K-
and
it's
in
this,
it's
part
of
the
site-
review
the
criteria
that
was
adopted
five
years
ago
with
the
intent
that
of
councils,
saying,
if
we're
going
to
let
people
build
residential
units
on
a
fourth
floor,
we
need
to
require
them
to
put
half
of
those
units
half
of
the
affordable
units
on
site
of
the
project,
and
it's
that
particular
provision.
While
it
was
enacted
adopted
with
the
best
of
intent
that
has
made
it
impossible
to
build
for
sale
units
residential
units
in
a
building.
V
That
is
four
stories
and
I
just
mentioned
that,
because
the
site
review
criteria
are
under
revision
and
we'll
come
to
you
next
month
that
one
of
the
things
staff
could
do
to
address
the
housing
crisis
is
to
have
one
of
the
that
Criterion
be
pulled
from
the
site
review.
It
would
be
simple
with
a
with
a
for
sale
project
like
we're
talking
about
with
101
units.
The
cash
and
lieu
would
be
7.5
million
dollars.
That's
seventy
four
thousand
dollars
per
unit.
V
If
that
were
paid
into
the
affordable
housing
fund,
which
this
development
apparently
would
sustain,
it
could
produce
even
more
affordable
units,
because
then
it
could
be
combined
with
latex
money
and,
as
we
know,
from
past
studies,
paying
permitting
developers
to
pay
cash
in
lieu
actually
produces
more
units
for
a
given
amount
of
money
than
it
does
by
requiring
or
by
building
on
site,
and
the
final
thing
I'd
say
is
worth
101
units
If,
This,
Were,
a
rental
project.
V
The
cash
in
lieu
that
would
be
required
would
be
only
5.9
million,
but
because
of
the
provision
that
I
mentioned,
the
cash
in
lieu
would
be
seven
and
a
half
million
in
a
for
sale
unit,
and
but
anyway,
that's
that's
the
problem.
So
I
just
urge
you
to
look
at
it
in
December
when
it
comes
forward.
We
have
to
address
and
quickly
too
these
perverse
incentives
that
we
have
that
keep
us
from
building
housing
for
people
to
live
in.
B
AJ
First
I
wanted
to
thank
the
tennis
community
for
coming
tonight
and
for
telling
us
about
wheelchair
tennis,
I
never
heard
about
it
before
and
so.
I
find
it
really
interesting,
and
that
sounds
like
a
big
Community
need
so
I'm,
hoping
that
we
can
all
work
together
to
to
solve
some
some
of
those
problems.
And
secondly,
I
want
to
thank
some
of
the
people
from
the
Arts
Community
for
giving
truly
moving
testimony
tonight.
B
It's
terrible,
okay,
not
seeing
any
other
hands
raised
I
think
we
can
move
to
the
consent
agenda.
We
should
you
could
talk
to
us
about
that.
Please.
B
Very
good
and
I
think
we
had
an
intention
of
calling
out
item
I,
which
is
a
performance
valuation,
salary
adjustment
for
the
city
manager,
City
training,
municipal
judge,
so
I.
Just
wonder
if
we
might
go
to
that
before
we
take
General
comments
and
that's
Nicole
and
Judy
you've
been
running
now.
H
Yes,
yeah.
Thank
you.
We
just
had
a
few
comments
to
make
and
then
I
just
want
to
open
up
a
space
for
anybody
else
who
would
like
to
add
anything
so
overall,
the
evaluation
process
for
our
city
council
employees,
confirmed
what
many
of
us
already
knew.
Our
employees
are
doing,
excellent
work
for
us
and
for
our
city,
we're
so
fortunate
to
have
the
three
employees
that
we
have.
You
are
all
leaders
in
our
community
and
beyond
your
staff.
H
Your
co-workers
and
peers
across
the
region
clearly
respect
you
and
are
very
grateful
to
work
with
you.
So
thank
you
for
all
you
do
for
our
city
and
for
the
innovative
ways
you
approach
your
work.
I
wanted
to
also
say
on
behalf
of
Juni
and
me.
Thank
you
also
for
your
patience
with
this
evaluation
process,
which
had
more
than
a
few
hurdles.
H
Over
the
past
year,
council,
member
Joseph
and
I
are
working
on
a
Lessons
Learned
document
and
some
process
improvements
to
make
sure
that
future
iterations
of
this
committee
can
move
forward
in
a
more
efficient
and
timely
manner.
So
everyone
look
out
for
that.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
better
supporting
all
of
our
employees
in
our
work,
because
we
recognize
how
valuable
your
work
is
to
council
to
City
staff
and
to
the
whole
community
council
member
Joseph.
Would
you
like
to
add
anything
foreign.
E
Thank
you
very
much.
I
just
want
to
reiterate
that
we
do
have
wonderful,
Council
staff
and
I'm
so
proud
to
have
our
city
manager
and
City
attorney,
and
the
municipal
court
judge
as
part
of
the
leadership
of
our
city
and
I
am
honored
to
have
been
part
of
this
process
as
well,
and
we
look
forward
to
continuing
the
conversation
as
well
with
city
council
and
these
three
Council
staff
and
leaders
in
order
to
best
improve
the
process
which
will
eventually
be
incorporated
as
part
of
the
retreat
agenda.
So
thank.
B
You
thank
you
Nicole
and
Jenny
and
I'll
just
add
that
between
city
manager,
Mary
Vera,
vandermeid
and
City
attorney,
Teresa,
Taylor,
Tate
and
municipal
judge
Linda
cook.
We
have
a
dream
team
of
head
employees
here
at
the
city
and
I'm
just
deeply
grateful
each
and
every
day
to
be
able
to
work
with
you
in
making
our
city
a
better
place.
H
J
Bob
and
I
are
aiming
for
the
same
thing
here,
we'd
like
to
take
a
moment
to
talk
about
3G.
J
With
regards
to
the
item
about
arpa
spending
and
in
particular,
I
wanted
to
sort
of
draw
some
attention
to
the
what
you
might
call
here,
the
public
health
reserve
and
what's
sort
of
currently
in
there,
and
wanted
to
sort
of
ask
some
questions
of
Staff
about
what
that's
being
spent
on.
So
if
we
could
take
a
few
moments
to
do
that,
I
just
want
to
make
sure
if
that's
indeed
where
Bob
was
wanting
to
go
since
I
saw
his
hand
up
as
well.
J
J
Yeah
so
in
there
in
the
public
health
reserve
section,
that's
3G,
it
says
at
the
end
there
that
there's
a
remaining
balance
of
about
547
321
for
the
public
health
Reserve
to
the
and
I'm
just
curious.
Is
there
any
current
plan
to
ex
to
spend
that
money
outside
the
proposed
and
and
really
specifically,
you
know
of
that?
AK
Good
evening,
Council
Mark
Wolfe
senior
budget
manager
happy
to
address
your
questions
Matt.
So
what
you're,
referring
to
just
so
we're
all
on
the
same
page
as
we
had
a
balance,
as
you
mentioned
leftover
from
tranche
one
so
dollars
that
we
appropriated
initially
from
our
arpa
allocation.
We
set
aside
about
we
set
aside
a
million
dollars
through
that
public
health
reserve
and
I
have
spent
some
of
that.
AK
The
remaining
balance,
as
you
mentioned
a
little
over
500k
and
our
discussion
at
a
couple
of
our
budget
meetings,
was
Council
directed
us
to
look
at
other
uses,
and
so
we
did
some
work
granted
over
a
shorter
period
of
time
but
tried
to
meet
what
we
felt
were
some
council's
comments
and
discussion
from
those
meetings,
and
so
the
150
that
you're,
alluding
to
is
one
of
the
proposed
uses
of
that
balance
would
be
to
bolster
two
of
our
Arts
funds.
AK
One
specifically
related
to
artists,
hiring
incentives
and
venue,
affordability,
one
for
artists,
hiring
incentive.
Excuse
me
and
another
four
venue,
affordability
and
online
events,
and
so
those
are
two
more
specific
methods
that
we're
suggesting
and
then
the
balance
of
that.
So
a
little
over
three
hundred
thousand
would
be
in
the
realm
of
almost
400k
for
basic
human
services
needs,
and
so
there's
a
little
bit
of
flexibility
there.
Just
because
you
know
we
don't
know
what
we
don't
know
is
you
all
are
familiar.
Not
only
are
we
dealing
with
covid
but
many
other
sicknesses.
AK
It
seems
over
the
past
several
weeks
so
having
that
flexibility
to
be
able
to
react
to
community
basic
needs
over
the
coming
months,
there
are
a
few
specific
areas
that
our
HHS
staff
is
suggesting
specifically
related
to
food
security,
financial
assistance,
Health
Services
related
to
vaccine
and
testing.
If,
if
we
need
that,
so
that's
the
the
split
there's,
certainly
flexibility
in
terms
of
receiving
some
Council
feedback
and
Direction
on
that.
But
those
are
the
suggested
kind
of
reallocations
of
the
public
health
Reserve.
At
this
moment,.
J
L
Thanks
man
and
I've
got
some
ideas
too,
but
let's
get
maybe
do
questions
first,
I
I'm
just
kind
of
following
on
Matt's
training
there
Mark.
If
you
want
my
stand
on
the
line,
so
all
of
the
almost
400
000
that's
kind
of
left
over
in
that
the
million
dollar
Public
Health
Reserve
from
France
one.
L
AK
Yeah,
so
it's
a
good
question
because
that
the
public
health
Reserve
was
appropriated
already
we're
seeking
Council
feedback
now.
So,
if
you
are
supportive
of
those
uses,
then
we
would
go
ahead
and
use
as
needed
under
those
two
categories.
The
Arts
dollars
are
a
little
bit
more
urgently
going
out
those
others
reserved
for
those
basic
needs,
as
determined
by
HHS.
AK
L
It,
okay,
that's
that's
helpful,
Mark
and,
and
so
we
kind
of
are
allocating
that
whole
547,
150
to
arts
and
then
397
000,
just
as
HHS
determines
over
the
coming
months,
sounds
like
without
further
console
input.
That's
helpful
and
then
kind
of
a
related
question
if
I
add
up
the
numbers
from
page
21
of
the
memo,
I
come
up
to
about
about
19.8
million
dollars
around
round
numbers
of
arpa
funds
that
have
been
been
or
will
tonight
be
allocated.
Is
that
am
I
directionally
correct
there.
AK
They're
they're
there
is
and
I
believe
we
have
covered
that
one
of
the
one
of
the
suggestions
in
the
memo
and
I'm
trying
to
find
the
exact
number
here
is
to
bolster
our
winter
shelter
support
so
that
we
had
talked
with
financial
strategy
committee
a
few
weeks
ago
and
again
trying
to
be
responsive
to
some
of
the
discussion
at
our
budget
meetings
are
proposing
a
little
over
four
hundred
thousand
dollars
to
bolster
shelters,
temporary
shelters
during
the
winter
season,
so
I'll
triple
check
the
numbers,
but
I
believe
that,
with
this
additional
appropriation
would
close
out
our
total
arpa
allocation.
AK
L
That's
helpful.
That's
helpful
explanation,
I
just
not
track
in
the
numbers,
though,
because
that's
not
what
the
memo
the
memo
seems
to
to
add
up
to
19.8
19.9
I,
don't
see
the
extra
three
or
four
thousand,
maybe
in
words
later
on,
but
it's
certainly
not
in
the
table,
so
you're
saying
that
if
we
pass
this
tonight
at
first
reading
in
a
couple
weeks
on
second
reading,
then
all
of
the
20.1
million
dollars
in
arfa
money
will
have
bet
allocated
and
we're
done
talking.
We
counselor
done
talking
about
our
posts
that
we
were
saying.
L
There
must
be
an
inconsistency
that
I
guess
I'll
say
in
the
memo
and
have
to
be
critical,
but
there
must
be
an
inconsistencies.
Table
21
doesn't
seem
to
say
that
table
on
page
21
doesn't
seem
to
say
that
I,
don't
doubt
that
you
have
some
words
later
on
that
says
and
by
the
way
the
last
400
000
is
going
to
go
out
to
this
other
thing,
but
it
doesn't
unfortunately
doesn't
say
that
in
the
table.
L
So
that's
what
I
was
relying
on
okay,
so
there's
two
400
there's
two
400
thousands,
the
400
000,
that's
left
over
that
you
want
us
to
give
HHS
for
future
spending
as
they
see
fit,
and
another
three
or
four
hundred
thousand
dollars
that
you
want
us
to
allocate
to
HSS
for
winter
Sheltering.
Over
and
above,
what's
already
been
allocated.
Is
that
what
you're
saying.
AK
Correct
and
apologies
for
the
inconsistency
on
the
number
there
I
will
get
counsel
and
answer
as
to
cleaning
that
up.
You
are
correct
on
those
numbers,
so
we're
re
we're
reallocating,
547,
yeah
and
change
from
the
public
health
Reserve
within
that
400k,
with
about
400k,
would
be
for
those
basic
service
needs.
There's
an
additional
separate
four
hundred
thousand
dollars
within
the
tranche
three
recommendations
which
are
for
winter
Sheltering.
Okay,.
L
Yeah
I
I
agree
from
a
Clarity
standpoint
Aaron,
but
we're
being
asked
to
prove
this
on
first
reading
and
I
think
if
we
were
going
to
ask
for
a
change
in
things,
it
would
be
more
polite
to
do
that
now,
rather
than
doing
that
second
reading,
first
and
third
reading
so
I'm
I
think
what
Matt
and
I
are
trying
to
get
to
is
the
number
one
understanding
and
number
two
to
the
extent
there
are
changes
to
be
suggested
or
considered
by
Council
I
think
we
want
to
try
to
get
those
on
the
table
now,
rather
than
forcing
a
third
reading
into
January.
B
L
Yeah
and
and
then
my
final
question,
I'll
stop
and
yield
to
Nicole
and
Tara.
When
do
we
do
our
first
adjustment
to
base
on
the
2023
budget?
Roughly.
AK
Normally,
it
is
scheduled
in
the
May
time
frame.
I'll
just
note
that,
with
the
ballot
items
as
they
played
out
we'll
be
doing
a
special
adjustment
likely
in
early
February,
okay.
B
It's
not
nicoleman's
here.
H
Yeah
and
I,
just
just
in
the
order
of
questions
I,
don't
need
answers
tonight,
but
what
I'm
wondering
about
with
the
the
Arts
funding
is
whether
HHS
has
what
they
need,
because
when
I
was
talking
with
some
folks
from
HHS
about
it,
they
had
sort
of
already
thought
about
using
these
funds
for
basic
needs,
and
so
just
that
I'm
I'm
wondering
if
they
are
still
able
to
do
what
they
were
going
to
do
and
apply
for
the
grants
they
were
going
to
apply
for
and
all
of
that
with
the
the
the
slight
reduction
funds.
H
My
other
question
is
just
around
the
ways
that
that
one
of
the
things
that
I
so
appreciated
about
the
arpa
funds
allocation
process
was
how
it
was
grounded
in
equity
and
addressing
that
the
needs
of
the
community
members
who
were
most
at
and
so
I'm
just
wondering
Within
These
programs
that
the
extra
funds
are
going
to
is
that
already
baked
in
to
the
process
or
is
there
something
else
that's
going
to
need
to
happen
to
kind
of
fit
with
that
overall
theme
of
the
arpa
fence.
AK
Yeah,
thanks
for
your
question,
Nicole
I
I
think
we
did
the
best.
We
could
on
short
notice,
to
follow
the
criteria
that
we
outlined
with
council
at
the
beginning.
Certainly
there's
some
flexibility.
There
related
to
basic
needs
going
forward
and
I
know
that
Elizabeth
Crow
is
on
this
evening
as
well.
AK
I
believe
the
the
recommendation
that
we
came
to
will
provide
what
what
we
feel
like
we
need
going
forward,
there's
always
more
need
than
dollars
we
have
available,
but
certainly
as
it
relates
to
the
use
of
these
are
dollars
and
I'll.
Just
mention
Bob.
Apologies
that
table
on
21
that
total
the
19.26
is
is
inaccurate,
that
those
that
column
actually
adds
up
to
19.6
and
I
I'm
able
to
make
that
change
for
the
final
packet.
So
apologies
for
that.
B
AJ
Tara
first
I
wanted
to
thank
people
working
on
this
because
one
of
the
most
fantastic
parts
of
this
this
arpa
memma
was
the
attention-paid
child
care
and
really
people
don't
often
bring
that
up,
but
I'm
just
really
thankful.
How
much
time
you
put
into
this
for
that
and
how
much
money
we're
allocating
towards
child
care.
So
thank
you
so
much
about
that.
For
that
really
important
thing,
and
the
second
thing
is
a
question:
is
both
the
boulder
fill
and
the
boulder
ballet
said
they
didn't
get
funding
and
I.
AJ
Don't
know
much
about
the
details
of
the
Arts
funding.
Do
you?
Can
anybody
say
why
that
is
and
if
it
is
true,
is
there
any
way
that
we
can
get
them
funding,
or
is
that
something
the
city
doesn't
do
it
doesn't
sound
like
it's
a
great
thing,
because
those
are
two
institutions
that
are
really
superb
and
I
feel
like
we
should
help
them.
AK
AL
Good
evening,
Council
Chris
Jones
interim
director
of
community
Vitality,
normally
I
would
also
deflect
to
Matt
shazansky,
because
he
knows
the
exact
details
on
on
the
nuances
of
funding
for
one
I
think
it
was
the
boulder
ballet.
There
was
a
criteria
change
and
they
were
just
under
the
line
and
I
think
that
that
was.
That
was
the
issue
there
and
then
the
boulder
fill
if
I
remember
correctly,
they
didn't
actually
apply.
There
was
something
that
changed
in
the
past
and
they
didn't
apply
for
the
the
general
operating
funds.
AL
Having
settled
that,
I
want
to
make
sure
I
get
you
the
correct
information,
and
we
can
respond
via
hotline
after
this
to
make
sure
that
I
have
spoken
correctly,
because
there
were
some
nuances
with
both
of
them
and
I
can
Circle
back
with
Matt.
AL
B
Thanks
Chris,
okay,
so
Mark
I'm
going
to
come
back
to
you
and
ask
this.
It
sounds
like
there's
some
potential
interest
in
changes.
If
we
were
to
make
changes
at
second
reading,
would
that
be
a
timing
problem
I'm,
just
I'm,
just
thinking
about
potentially
deferring
so
we've
had
a
chance
to
think
about
them
more
and
hear
from
the
public
and
public
hearing
and
all
that
kind
of
stuff.
AK
Yeah
I
appreciate
the
question
mayor.
So
what
we're
doing
something
a
little
bit
nuanced
and
I'll
just
explain
that
for
the
purposes
of
your
question,
the
second
adjustment
to
base,
so
that
will
be
an
additional
appropriation
but
we're
not
actually
appropriating
the
dollars
for
arpa
within
the
proposed
ordinance.
So
if
you
wanted
to
make
changes
to
the
arpa
recommendations
or
suggest
some
changes
and
have
us
follow
up
at
the
subsequent
meeting,
we
could
do
that
and
you
could
move
forward
on
the
ordinance
itself
and
go
ahead
and
make
those
Appropriations
on
December
1st.
B
B
Great
Matt.
J
Thanks
Aaron
I
appreciate
sort
of
the
the
time
to
sort
of
spend
on
this.
We've
certainly
been
hearing
a
lot
from
the
Arts
Community
and
you
know
we're
coming
towards
the
end
of
our
ARP
of
money
and
meeting
those
needs
of
those
disproportionately
impacted
from
the
pandemic.
So
it's
nice
to
sort
of
try
to
finish
that
off.
J
Well,
so
the
proposal
I'll
make
with
regards
to
the
public
health
funds
is
just
kind
of
a
modest
one,
and
it
would
be
simply
just
moving
from
one
side
to
the
other
about
another
100K
to
get
to
get
the
Arts
up
to
250
000,
and
that
would
pull
that
remainder
down
on
that
HHS
Reserve
down
to
200,
roughly
297
000,
and
so
that
would
just
sort
of
bring
a
little
bit
more
balance
and
I
think
you
know,
as
we've
heard,
you
know,
certainly
from
the
Arts
Community.
J
One
of
those
bigger
issues
is
affording
rent
like
we've
heard
from
Nick
Forrester
at
eTown.
We've
heard
from
a
number
of
other
venues
that
artists
getting
into
the
very
venues
is,
is
increasingly
expensive
and
we
know
how
much
those
rents
cost.
So
we
need
to
sort
of
make
sure,
there's
enough
money
to
actually
have
impact,
and
so
so
so
making
sure
we
can
pad
that
a
bit
is
helpful,
plus
the
urgent
need
to
help
the
Arts
because
they
are
lagging
in
their
economic
recovery
from
other
Industries.
J
Perhaps
we
can
backfill
that
either
through
our
other
reserves
or
through
ATB
if
we
need
to,
but
but
in
terms
of
urgency,
I'd
like
to
slide
a
little
bit
more
into
the
Arts
in
order
to
accommodate
those
urgent
needs,
especially
going
into
performance
season
in
the
holidays
and
then
shortly
thereafter
so
love
to
see
if
we
can
get
some
thoughts
on
that
appreciate,
it.
L
Yeah
I
support.
That's
a
proposal
I,
you
know.
I
know
this
is
zero
sum,
and
you
know
no
one
wants
to
to
favor
one
very
needy.
Any
great
need
in
a
community
sacrifice.
One
for
for
another
I
saw
not
we're
not
trying
to
pick
winners
and
losers.
Here
we
do
have
several
millions
of
dollars.
Actually,
the
vast
majority
of
arpa
is
for
Human
Services,
which
is
great,
and
it's
appropriate,
and
that's
exactly
what
arpa
was
for,
but
I
think
as
Matt
suggested.
L
We
do
have
Human
Services
needs,
quite
frankly
in
the
Arts
Community.
They
just
happen
to
be
people
who,
whose
jobs
it
is
to
provide
a
service
to
our
community
on
our
service,
Community
oftentimes.
They
are
at
the
lower
end
of
our
economic
scale,
both
the
organizations
and
the
artists
and
so
I
think
Matt's
modest
suggestion
of
an
extra
100
000
for
the
Arts
Community,
which
really,
in
my
mind,
is
really
a
human
services.
L
Need
that
that
needs
to
be
satisfied
is
an
appropriate
one,
considering
how
much
it
has
been
allocated
for
other
Human
Service
needs,
so
I
I
agree
that
taking
it
from
150
to
250.
For
those
very
specific
Parts
programs,
supporting
folks
that
are
still
struggling
to
recover
is,
is
the
right
thing
to
do.
Thanks.
B
H
Yeah
I
just
want
to
say,
I,
don't
support
the
proposal
to
move
additional
funds
beyond
what
staff
has
sort
of
said
without
more
of
an
equity
assessment
that
this
is
going
to
be
in
line
with
the
other,
our
priorities
and
the
way
that
we
approach
that
and
that's
not
anything
against
the
Arts,
Community
I.
Think
in
my
initial
proposal,
before
I
kind
of
realized
that
these
funds
were
already
your
March
for
basic
needs.
I
talked
about
basic
needs
for
the
Arts
Community
with
these
funds.
H
B
Thanks
Nicole
and
I'll
just
call
myself
here:
I
appreciate
the
advocacy
from
the
member
of
the
Arts
Community
event
here
tonight,
and
thanks
for
Matt
and
Bob,
and
bringing
this
up
and
I
look
forward
to
considering
this
a
second
reading
and
we'll
make
a
decision
on
these
matters
in
a
couple
weeks.
So
if
nobody
else
to
get
Nicole
did
any
another
arpa
thing
or
are
we
done.
B
The
last
call
on
on
arpa
going
three
times:
okay,
great
so
Nicole,
something
else
on
the
consent
agenda.
Yes,.
H
Yeah
I:
this
is
just
about
the
hotline
post
that
I
sent
out
like
three
seconds
before
it
was
a
little
more
than
that,
but
shortly
before
the
meeting
I
just
wanted
to
apologize
for
sending
that
out
with
such
short
notice,
made
a
little
note
about
it
weeks
ago
and
forgot
to
follow
through
with
my
action
item
until
I
was
looking
at
my
notes
tonight.
What
I
really
should
have
started
with,
and
so
apologies
to
all
of
you
to
Nuria
and
Carl
sorry
for
adding
a
little
extra
spice
to
your
evening.
H
But
what
I
should
have
started
with
was
the
question
of
when
we
would
be
revisiting
these
issues,
I
kind
of
assumed
that
it
wouldn't
happen
in
this
legislative
session.
But
I
didn't
actually
ask
that
question
to
see.
If
what
you
all
had
in
mind.
So
I
wanted
to
ask
that
question
before,
following
up
on
anything
more.
AM
Yeah,
hey
mayor
Brockett,
so
the
answer
is
no
in
terms
of
we're
not
expecting
any
legislation
to
be
introduced
or
to
be
considered.
That
would
go
to
the
issue
to
either
of
the
issues
that
you're
you're
mentioning.
AM
However,
if
they
are
introduced
by
bringing
this
back
to
council
for
consideration
in
February
I,
think
that
would
be
ample
time
for
the
city
to
play
April
and
trying
to
influence
any
legislation
that
has
to
do
with
the
city's
authority
to
to
limit
camping
or
on
the
issue
of
Health
Care
reforms.
So
short,
we
don't
expect
any
issues
to
come
up
on
this,
but
nonetheless,
by
addressing
it
in
February.
It
shouldn't
be
too
late
to
play
a
role
in
such
matter.
H
Okay,
so
let
me
just
make
sure
I'm
understanding,
so
it
sounds
like
then.
This
will
come
back
to
council
for
a
discussion
in
February
about
these
two
kind
of
remaining
issues
on
our
legislative
policy
agenda
and
we
can
discuss
at
that
point
and
make
a
decision
if
we're
going
to
modify
the
agenda
that
am
I
understanding.
AM
Yeah,
yes,
and
and
apologies
for
losing
light
in
the
background
here.
So
yes,
when
we
come
back
in
February
I
will
make
sure
that
these
two
items
are
front
and
center
for
Council
to
to
consider.
B
Thank
you
for
your
flexibility,
Nicole
and
Carl
I
think
can
we
would
we
have
a
chance
to
check
in
on
that
at
the
legislative,
the
intergovernmental
Affairs
committee,
as
well
before
bringing
back
to
council.
G
I
I
had
a
question
about
a
different
consent
agenda
item.
If
that's
okay
item
3D
Rachel
had
sent
out
a
hotline
post
that
sort
of
ask
the
question
around.
I
The
staff
member
talking
about
doing
engagement
to
answer
the
question
of
do
we
want
more
affordable
home
ownership
units
or
affordable
rental
units,
and
she
had
asked
how
that
fits
into
other
community
engagement
processes
that
we
have
ongoing.
AH
I
B
All
right-
and
this
is
I-
believe
a
roll
call
vote.
So
at
least
we
have
a
motion
in
a
second.
C
L
I
C
I
C
AN
C
All
right,
sir,
thank
you.
Our
call
of
check-ins
are
item
four
on
tonight's
agenda
for
a
is
the
landmark
alteration
certificate
to
restore
front
porch
and
replace
rear
Edition
with
a
new
rear
Edition
at
429,
Highland
Avenue,
contributing
property
in
the
Mapleton
Hill
historic
district.
Pursuant
to
section
9-11-18
of
the
boulder
Revised
Code
1981.
B
Not
seeing
any
and
Judy
I
just
wonder,
I
want
to
make
sure
that
you've
made
it
in
successfully
or
you're
able
to
speak
and
such.
B
Great,
thank
you
just
wanted
to
be
sure
glad
to
have
you
here:
okay,
I'm,
not
seeing
any
hands
up
so
looks
like
there's
no
interest
in
calling
this
one
up.
C
All
right,
sir.
Next,
on
tonight's
agenda,
we
have
our
public
hearings
item
five,
and
that
is
5A.
Is
the
public
hearing
and
consideration
of
the
following
four
items
related
to
a
petition
to
Annex
a
property
generally
located
at
6
500
Arapahoe
Road
with
an
initial
zoning
of
public
and
it's
referenced
under
lur.
C
2021-00032
first,
we
have
the
annexation
of
the
western
portion.
The
first
item
under
that
heading
is
the
motion
to
adopt
resolution
1317,
setting
forth
the
findings
of
fact
and
conclusions
and
then
second
related
to
that
property.
We
have
the
second
reading
and
consideration
of
emotion
to
adopt
ordinance
8550,
which
is
annexing
to
the
city
of
Boulder,
the
Westerly
19.097
acre
portion
of
the
property.
C
Next
we
have
if
the
ordinance
8550
is
adopted.
The
second
section
of
that
annexation
is
the
easterly
portion
item
one
for
that
particular
set
of
properties.
Is
the
resolution
1332
motion
to
adopt
setting
forth
to
findings
of
facts
and
conclusions
regarding
the
annexation
of
the
easterly
28.882
acre
portion
and
the
second
reading
and
consideration
of
a
motion
to
adopt
ordinance,
8553
annexing
to
the
city,
the
easterly
28.82
acre
portions
of
the
property
and
if
the
ordinance
is
8550
and
8553
are
adopted.
B
That
was
a
mouthful
thanks,
Alicia
all
right,
so
we
will
have
Spanish
interpretation
services
tonight
for
this
public
hearing.
So
I
will
now
turn
to
our
language,
Access
program
manager,
Manuela
cincuentes,
to
go
over
how
to
select
your
preferred
language,
Manuela.
AO
Thank
you
mayor.
We
have.
We
should
now
have
interpretation
activated,
and
so,
if
for
those
of
you
who
are
on
Zoom,
please
go
to
the
bottom
of
your
screen
and
you
will
find
an
icon
in
the
shape
of
a
globe
and
click
on
that
icon
and
select
English
or
Spanish
I'm,
now
going
to
say,
the
okay
just
became
activated
and
I'm
going
to
say
the
same
message
in
Spanish.
AO
English
English
or
espanol
Spanish.
We
also
have
a
slide
with
some
instructions
for
speakers
some
guidelines.
If
you
can,
please
speak
slowly
and
pronounce
your
words.
Clearly,
if
you
are
reading
your
notes,
please
read
slowly
if
you
have
a
headset
with
a
microphone.
Please
use
it
during
this
section,
as
it
greatly
helps
the
interpreters
and
please,
once
you
are
discussing
things.
AO
If
you
can
wait
for
the
person
who's
speaking
to
finish
and
then
so
so
as
not
to
interrupt
or
speak
over
the
other
person,
that
would
that
also
greatly
helps
the
interpreters,
Yoda.
AO
AO
B
B
So
our
our
Council
rules
say
that
if
there
are
15
or
fewer
speakers,
they're
allotted
three
minutes
of
speaking
time
at
the
time
of
sign
ups,
they
were
exactly
15,
so
folks
were
told
that
they
got
three
minutes
we've
since
added
two
people,
so
total
17,
but
I
would
propose
still
allowing
people
three
minutes,
because
that
was
the
amount
they
were
told
that
they
had
so
just
want
to
check
and
make
sure
that's
okay,
with
Council
before
proceeding.
B
Okay,
let
me
see
some
thumbs
UPS
all
right,
so
folks,
we'll
have
three
minutes
to
speak
when
we
get
there
thanks
for
confirming
that,
and
so
Mary
I'll
turn
it
over
to
you
to
get
this
started.

Okay,
good
evening,
council
members
today,
I'll
be
presenting
on
a
request
for
annexation
of
a
47.9
acre
property
with
an
initial
zoning
designation
of
public
located
at
6500
Arapahoe
Road
in
terms
of
the
review
process.
Land
may
be
considered
for
annexation
if
the
proposal
complies
with
the
state
and
annexation,
State
annexation
statutes,
as
well
as
the
policies
of
the
Boulder
Valley
comprehensive
plan.
The
comp
plan
provides
a
framework
for
annexation
and
urban
service
provision.
AP
Within
the
city
it
states
the
city
will
actively
pursue
annexation
of
substantially
developed
area,
2
properties
and
then,
if
a
property
is
annexoning
will
be
established
consistent
with
the
land
use
designation
in
the
bbcp.
Additionally,
an
annexation
agreement
is
required
to
establish
the
terms
and
conditions
of
the
annexation,
for
this
particular
parcel
a
series
annexations
required.
This
occurs
when
the
partial
does
not
meet
the
1
6
contiguity
in
its
entirety
and
is
therefore
fixed
in
portions
concurrently
to
achieve
contiguity
through
approval
of
two
separate
ordinances.
AP
Since
this
has
been
a
lengthy
process,
I
just
wanted
to
provide
a
summary
of
the
different
processes
to
date.
So
the
annexation
negotiations
have
been
ongoing
since
2018
and
an
application
was
filed
in
July
of
2021.
AP
The
annexation
agreement
sent
a
council
as
part
of
this
meeting,
and
this
meeting
packet
has
been
modified
based
on
the
planning
board
recommendation
and
includes
the
height
condition
and
I'll
talk
about
that
later.
In
the
presentation
on
October
6th
Council
held
the
first
reading
and
the
adoption
of
resolution
1316
and
tonight
council
is
considering
or
its
council
is,
for
the
second
reading,
considering
adoption
of
in
order
resolution,
1317,
ordinance,
8550
adoption
of
resolution,
1322,
ordinance,
8553
and
approval
of
an
intergovernmental
agreement
between
the
city
and
the
school
district.
AP
AP
Written
notification
was
mailed
to
all
Property
Owners
within
600
feet
of
the
proposed
development,
and
then
the
notice
was
also
posted
on
the
property,
and
this
is
all
consistent
with
the
typical
indexation
application
made
to
the
city
and
then
a
neighborhood
meeting
was
also
held
on
September
29th
on
the
bvst
campus
and
the
notice
for
that
was
sent
to
property
owners
and
households
within
a
thousand
feet
of
the
property
of
the
proposed
project.
Property.
AP
In
terms
of
the
project
site,
it's
located
south
of
Arapahoe,
Road
and
East
of
City
properties,
where
ecocycle
and
other
recycling
facilities
are
located
north
there's
some
River
Mars
to
the
south
of
the
property.
AP
And
the
site
is
in
the
site
is
located
in
area
two
of
planning
areas,
map
of
the
bbcp
and
area.
Two
is
the
service
area
for
where
City
annexation
can
be
considered
in
terms
of
the
bvcp
land,
use
the
properties
designated
as
public
or
semi-public,
which
anticipates
uses,
including
Municipal
and
Public
Utility
Services,
educational
facilities
and
government
offices,
as
well.
AP
In
terms
of
the
proposed
proposed
zoning,
the
applicant
is
requesting
a
public
zoning
which
is
consistent
with
the
existing
conditions
of
the
property
within
the
city.
The
p
district
is
described
as
public
areas
in
which
public
and
semi-public
facilities
and
uses
are
located
again
without
limitation,
governmental
and
educational
uses.
AP
In
terms
of
the
existing
conditions,
so
the
property
is
currently
connected
to
City,
Water
and
Sewer
facilities
in
1964,
the
city
passed
an
ordinance
granting
Water
and
Sewer
Utility
Services
to
bbsd
on
a
revocable
permit
basis
and
it
limited
the
use
of
those
services
to
certain
uses
and
Facilities
on
the
property
in
2022.
Essential
kitchen
was
added
on
the
property
extending
those
city
services,
which
was
one
of
the
triggers
for
this
annexation,
along
with
the
proposed,
affordable
housing,
modular
Factory.
AP
AP
So
moving
into
the
annexation
terms,
annexation
is
a
negotiated
process.
Most
parties
seek
development,
potential
or
city
services,
and
the
school
at
this
time
already
has
the
city
services
and
is
not
seeking
additional
development
potential.
In
light
of
that,
this
is
just
a
brief
overview
of
the
annexation
terms
that
have
been
negotiated
at
this
time.
AP
So
bvsd
will
pay
storm
water
plant
investment
fees.
They
will
comply
with
the
city
regulations
regarding
flood
and
the
current
city,
outdoor
lighting
standards.
AP
AP
And
the
operating
hours
will
be
Tuesday
to
Saturday
between
8
and
4
P.M
again
we
have
staff
who
to
provide
a
presentation
and
additional
information
as
well.
AP
So
there
were
some
questions
at
CC
from
Council
and
just
wanted
to
address
some
of
those
here.
So
the
first
one
was
Some
Noise
concerns.
I
just
want
to
point
out
that
this
is
included
in
the
IGA,
that
the
city
will
hire
acoustical
Engineers
to
understand
what
the
noise
impacts
might
be
in
terms
of
lighting.
AP
That's
located
in
the
county
along
63rd
Street,
so
our
community
engagement
staff
was
able
to
reach
residents
on
how
to
sign
up
and
speak
at
the
hearing
and
that
we
can
provide
interpretation
today
and
then
notice
was
sent
to
Property
Owners
within
the
mobile
home
park
during
the
2021
public
notification,
as
well
as
during
the
September
29th
meeting
and
notification
for
that
as
well,
and
then.
AP
Lastly,
there
is
the
open
space
Board
of
Trustees
letter
that
was
submitted
to
submitted
to
council
as
well,
and
there
I
believe,
there's
someone
here
that
will
sign
up
to
to
speak
to
that
as
well
during
the
public.
Testimony.
AP
B
You
thanks
so
much
so
just
from
a
procedural
standpoint,
if
we
could
have
questions
for
Shop
number
of
our
city
staff
at
this
time
and
then
I
believe
we're
going
to
hear
from
the
applicant
after
that
the
bbsd
and
we
can
ask
them
questions
at
that
time.
So
stick
to
City
staff
questions
for
the
moment.
Bob.
L
Yeah
indicated
that
maybe
a
presentation
by
housing,
Human
Services
relating
to
the
IGA,
should
we
wait
for
that
or
if
we
have
questions
about
that,
should
we
ask
those
now.
B
K
You
very
much
mayor
Jay
segment
with
housing
and
Human
Services.
K
If
you
could
pull
up
my
presentation
pretty
please,
so
we
want
to
provide
a
little
bit
of
contact
for
the
affordable
housing,
modular,
Factory
and
partnership,
and
also
talk
in
more
detail
about
the
intergovernmental
agreement.
So
with
that
I'll
just
jump
in
provide
a
little
bit
of
background
next
slide.
Please!
K
So
just
so.
We
all
understand
what
we're
talking
about.
So
this
idea
of
Zero
Energy
module
it
so
all
electric,
basically
very
efficient
appliances,
lighting
from
a
very
tight
tight
envelope,
good
ventilation,
high
quality
materials.
K
But
the
key
piece
is
that
it's
on
the
fixed
Foundation,
very
different
than
a
mobile
home
or
manufactured
housing
next
slide,
and
this
started
back
in
2019,
there
was
a
city
together
with
the
Colorado
Housing
Finance
Authority
energy
Outreach
Colorado
is
as
well
as
the
Colorado
habitat
Affiliates,
basically
commissioned
the
study
to
say:
is
there
a
demand
for
modular
housing
in
Colorado,
and
not
only
did
that
study
find
that
there
is
a
demand
for
it,
particularly
for
mobile
home
replacement,
but
it
could
also
be
used
for
single
family
multi-family
as
well
as
infilm.
K
Next
slide,
please
so
modular
is
really
only
limited
by
your
imagination
is
a
good
way
to
think
about.
It
is
each
module
is
a
Jenga
block
and
you
can
configure
that
block
in
pretty
much
any
way
that
you
see
could
possibly
imagine
next
slide.
K
And
you
should
be
able
to
play
the
video
I
think,
hopefully
foreign
there
you
go
so
this
is
an
example
of
a
modular
home,
two
duplexes
being
set
in
a
single
day.
This
is
up
in
the
mountains.
Grand
County,
but
it's
just
one
of
the
great
benefits
of
modular
construction
is
that
it
limits
the
impact
to
the
community.
So
a
traditional
build
like
this
could
take
anywhere
from
three
to
four
months
or
even
seven
or
eight.
K
K
K
So
this
partnership,
obviously
to
help
produce
much
needed,
affordable
housing,
but
it's
also
a
great
opportunity
to
provide
Workforce
training
for
both
Boulder
Valley
School
District
students,
Susan
Lithgow,
the
executive
director
from
habitat,
is
here.
The
school
district
is
here,
they'd
love
to
talk
more
about
that.
If
you'd
like
to
learn
more
next
slide,.
K
But
this
is
an
example
of
the
students
from
bvsd.
This
is
a
habitat
build
at
Powell,
Park
and
traditionally,
there's
been
a
very
strong
collaboration
between
a
habitat
as
well
and
the
school
district,
and
the
idea
is
this:
modular
Factory
could
help
strengthen
and
grow
that
Workforce
housing
component
of
the
bpsd
programs
next
slide
and
the
the
initial
Genesis
of
this
project
has
to
do
with
Ponderosa
mobile
home
park
next
slide
like
you're
all
familiar
without
the
city
purchased
it
back
in
2018.
That
park
has
experienced
an
infrastructure
failure.
K
All
that
infrastructure
has
been
replaced
at
this
time
and
a
lot
of
those
homes
are
fairly
old
and
certainly
in
need
of
replacement.
So
this
modular
construction
is
really
intended
to
allow
those
residents
to
move
into
fixed,
Foundation,
very
energy,
efficient,
very
healthy
new
modular
homes.
K
So
the
the
roles
of
this
partnership,
the
city,
housing
and
Human
Services,
is
providing
funding
to
construct
and
equip
the
factory
flat.
Irons
is
managing
the
facility
they'll
procure
all
the
materials
provide,
Logistics
and
organizing
the
volunteers
and
ensure
that
the
students
are
integrated
into
the
operations.
K
So
we
looked
at
sites
for
the
factory
different
city-owned
sites
throughout
the
city.
We
also
looked
on
private
land
throughout
the
county
and
really
settled
on
the
school
district
property
and,
as
you
can
see
here,
in
yellow
it's
it.
It
is
on
the
southern
edge
of
the
Southern
portion
of
the
site
to
the
north.
K
63Rd
is
over
to
your
left,
hopefully
from
somewhat
familiar
with
the
site
by
now,
after
seeing
all
the
slides,
but
we
also
hired
a
consultant
to
look
at
a
feasibility
analysis
for
citing
the
factory
on
the
property,
and
this
was
really
the
only
site
that
was
viable
next
slide.
Please.
K
So,
as
you
can
see
here,
it's
zoomed
in
a
little
bit
more.
There
are
these
dashed
lines
on
both
sides
of
the
proposed
facility
and
those
are
overhead
power
lines
that
converge
to
the
north.
So
we've
tried
to
move
that
factory
as
far
north
as
possible
away
from
the
marsh
away
from
the
neighborhoods.
But
those
are
options
were
really
quite
Limited
next
slide.
K
So
why
modular
just
really
important
to
emphasize
the
the
ability
for
Habitat
to
basically
take
their
model
and
move
it
indoors?
It
helps
increase
the
production,
particularly
of
home
ownership
opportunities,
and
our
hope
is
that
this
is
really
going
to
be
a
lower
cost
higher
quality
product,
a
lot
less
waste
in
the
manufacturing
process.
There's
less
exposure
to
weather
volunteers
and
workers
are
not
out
there
in
the
freezing,
cold
or
the
brutal
heat
workers.
Safety
has
definitely
improved
in
this
factory.
Setting
there
is
everything
is
that
nobody's
up
on
ladders.
K
K
So
this
just
gives
you
a
sense
of
what
the
factory
looks
like
it'll,
be
a
net
zero
building
parallel
solar
array
at
the
top,
and
it
will
be
very
well
insulated
and
with
all
electrics,
so
there
will
be
electric
forklifts
electrical
heating
cooling
that
allows
us
to
make
sure
to
keep
the
doors
closed
during
the
summer,
as
well
as
the
winter
next
slide,
and
this
just
gives
you
a
sense
of
what's
inside
the
factory
next
slide,
not
very
easy
to
read,
so
we
simplified
a
little
bit,
but
just
to
give
you
a
sense,
all
the
materials
building
materials
are
delivered
through
the
exterior
doors
they're
stored
around
the
interior
of
the
building.
K
So
there's
no
visual
clutter
on
the
outside
and
everything
is,
is
basically
assembled
in
along
these
lines.
So
we
have
a
ceiling
and
the
roof,
the
walls,
those
are
set
into
place
and
the
the
modules
move
through
these
different
positions,
the
plumbing
is
installed
the
electrical
as
you
go
from
right
to
left,
you
go
to
drywall
paint
and
finishes
doors
windows,
trims
everything
gets
done
inside
the
factory,
so
even
the
appliances,
all
the
furniture
in
the
final
clean
to
get
stored.
K
The
two
in
the
factory
two
to
three
others,
are
stored
on
the
outside
and
transport
all
at
the
same
time.
Next
slide
so
a
little
bit
about
the
activity
that
you
can
expect.
The
capacity
our
consultant
has
told
us
is
about
50
units
a
year,
but
because
we're
relying
on
volunteer
labor,
it
will
really
be
closer
to
12
to
15
homes
each
year.
K
So
that's
about
one
each
week
and
the
number
of
deliveries
are
actually
quite
small
in
comparison
with
the
current
operations
at
the
campus,
so
the
small
delivery
trucks
we
expect
about
one
to
two
per
week,
the
large
semi
trucks.
Those
are
about
one
to
two
a
month
and
the
modules
as
I
mentioned,
once
they
get
completed
or
stored
and
they
will
get
delivered.
Every
two
to
three
months
and
the
number
of
people
working
in
the
factory
too,
is
about
15
to
20..
K
K
So
a
little
bit
more
detail
on
the
intergovernmental
agreement,
Zoo
nodes
dependent
on
Council
annexing
the
property,
but
it's
real
intent
is
to
outline
the
roles
and
responsibilities
for
the
construction
and
the
cooperation
and,
most
importantly,
I
think.
What
we've
tried
to
do
is
make
sure
that
it
responds
to
what
we've
heard
from
Neighbors
concerns
about
the
impact's
potential
impacts
to
the
marsh,
as
well
as
to
the
neighbors,
and
this
is
what
we've
heard
from
the
community
since
the
spring,
but
also
most
particularly
at
the
September
public
meeting.
K
So
certain
things
that
we
have
agreed
to
is
to
hire
an
acoustical
engineer.
We
will
do
that
to
better
understand
the
potential
noise
impacts
from
the
factory
operations.
Our
commitment
to
reduce,
eliminate
backup,
alarms,
I
think
what
we
heard
loud
and
clear
that
the
neighbors
are
already
impacted
significantly
by
a
lot
of
drug
activity,
backup
activity
from
the
Eco
cycle
from
the
Central
Kitchen
from
other
operations
happening
in
that
area.
We
would
like
to
be
a
good
neighbor,
so
we
have
proposed
to
eliminate
all
backup,
alarms
and
rely
on
flaggers.
K
Instead,
we've
also
designed
the
factory
layout
so
that
delivery
trucks
can
don't
back
up
at
all.
It
can
go
circumnavigate
the
building
and
we've
established
the
operation
hours
quiet
hours
and
have
committed
to
meeting
both
city
and
county
noise
regulations
in
the
shop
that
I'm
mentioned.
We
the
light
in
building
Heights
concerns
those
are
addressed
in
the
annexation
agreement
next
slide,
so
the
the
factor
is,
is
there's
still
a
number
of
steps
that
need
to
be
complete
after
potential
annexation
and
Adoption
of
the
intergovernmental
agreement.
K
There
still
needs
to
be
finalization
of
the
lease
there's
financing
that
needs
to
be
obtained
to
for
any
potential
Gap
funding.
There
is
we're
still
in
the
Civil
design
phase
the
architectural
design
phase,
but
we
also
have
to
go
through
the
permitting,
as
well
as
getting
the
factory
licensed
to
coming
up
with
detailed
Factory
operational
designs
at
the
earliest.
K
We
would
be
able
to
even
begin
construction
is
probably
February
even
March
of
next
year
and
then,
if
everything
goes
well,
we
could
be
potentially
equipping
and
Staffing
that
Factory
the
following
year
around
the
same
time
next
slide,
and
that
is
the
conclusion
of
our
presentations.
B
Thanks
so
much
for
that
Jane
do
we
have
anything
else
from
City
staff
before
we
go
to
council
questions.
L
L
The
capacity
was
about
50
module
homes
per
year,
but
it
may
run
only
at
about
12
to
15,
just
because
of
limitations
on
students
and
volunteers,
which
I
understand,
and
it
looks
like
some
of
the
initial
modular
home
builds,
will
will
be
for
Ponderosa
I,
think
that
was
73.,
so
just
doing
the
math
in
there
it
sounds
like
the
first
at
the
rate
of
12
to
15
per
year,
sounds
like
the
first
four
or
five
years
will
be
mostly
dedicated
to
building
housing
for
Ponderosa.
Is
that
a
fair
assumption?
L
That
that's
great
and
then
since
there's
a
10-year
lease
I
assume
that
there'll
be
capacity
even
if
it's
only
at
the
12
to
15
unit
there'd
be
capacity
to
build
modular
homes
for
other
places
that
are
not
ponderos.
In
other
words,
if
opportunities
come
along,
whether
they're
City,
low-income
housing
opportunities
or
maybe
just
even
some
commercial
opportunities
for
modular
homes,
other
places
I
assume
that
that
would
be
kind
of
one
of
the
customers
so
to
speak,
of
the
Factories
at
a
fair
assumption.
Absolutely.
K
I
mean
I
think
this
city,
Boulder,
is
the
first
priority.
Habitat
is
the
second
priority,
but
we've
also
talked
about
the
potential
for
multi-family
housing.
It
could
also
be
used
to
build
adus
that
could
be
easily
dropped
into
someone's
backyard.
So
there
again,
the
options
are
pretty
Unlimited.
L
That's
that's
great,
that's
helpful,
Jay
and
then
finally,
my
final
question
I'm
sure,
there's
others
and
that's
just
around
the
access
to
the
property,
both
during
the
construction
and
then
then,
when
it's
operating
in
in
supplies
are
being
brought
in
and
and
and
then
modular
homes
were
being
brought
out.
The
backside
63rd
streets
is
a
long
kind
of
circuitous
way
to
get
over
to
this
corner.
L
You
have
to
kind
of
come
down
south
from
Arapahoe
and
then
across
near
the
near
the
marsh
and
kind
of
scooching,
around
some
buildings,
and
so
on
so
forth
and,
of
course,
going
by
the
Columbine
mobile
home
park
as
well.
It
just
was
curious.
There
isn't
another
entrance
to
the
property.
A
few
blocks
farther
east
I
think
at
the
at
the
curb
cut
it
at
Arapahoe.
L
It's
called
65th,
Street
I,
think
65th
Street
technically
bends
to
the
east,
but
there
is
a
kind
of
a
long
I,
also
called
a
road
drive
whatever
there
on
the
east
side
of
all
the
those
bbsd
buildings
that
goes
all
the
way
down
to
where
the
modular
home
Factory
would
be.
L
Is
there
any
reason
why
either
during
construction
or
during
operations
that
wouldn't
be
the
the
natural
Ingress
egress,
it
looks
like
it's,
maybe
a
third
or
a
quarter
of
the
distance
of
Arapahoe
and
it
wouldn't
run
by
the
marsh
and
it
wouldn't
run
by
the
mobile
home
park
Azura?
Is
there
a
compelling
reason
why
that
entrance
wouldn't
be
used.
K
Yeah
I
would
hesitate
to
speak
for
the
school
district,
but
we
basically
they
are
the
landlord.
So
as
the
factory
operators
we'll
do
what
they
request,
but
it
the
rationale
I
think
for
separating
the
traffic
is
that
they
would
like
to
separate
the
campus
traffic,
which
is
primarily
you
know:
individual
Vehicles
versus
more
industrial
traffic,
so
big
trucks,
keeping
those
on
63rd.
K
So
there
aren't
those
conflicts,
but
Glenn
sugru
is
the
senior
planner
for
the
Boulder
Valley
School
District,
and
if,
if
it's
appropriate,
now
he's
happy
to
go
into
more
detail
or
if.
L
K
B
AQ
The
it's
a
good
question
that
is
a
more
direct
route,
but
we
do
right
now
65th,
as
you
call
it
it's
a
very
heavily
used
area.
We
have
high
school
kids
from
the
Arapahoe
and
Tech
campuses
going
in
and
out.
We
have
our
constituency
coming
to
the
site,
for
you
know
various
testing
and
signing
up
for
programs
and
things
like
that.
We
have
our
employees,
so
it's
a
very
heavily
used
entrance
at
certain
times
during
the
day.
AQ
So
so
you
know
we
really
can't
commit
to
leaving
to
to
having
a
lot
of
the
traffic
from
the
factory
going
through
there
and
much
of
our
our
maintenance,
Fleet
and
deliveries
to
our
warehouse
in
our
Central
Kitchen
I
go
through
that
back
entrance
as
well
on
63rd
and
that's
not
to
say
that
those
entrances
can't
be
used
and
that
once
we
get
our
traffic
pattern
set
and
the
factories
built
that
we
can't
look
at
relieving
some
of
that
traffic
off
of
63rd.
AQ
But
we
just
really
can't
commit
to
pouring
all
of
that
traffic
through
there
with
those
potential
conflicts
in
our
day-to-day
operations.
L
B
If
people
don't
mind
just
follow
up
on
that,
so
Glenn,
then
what
I'm
hearing
is
that
there's
potential
willingness
you
know
in
maybe
in
a
year
or
two
as
we
look
at
the
track
traffic
patterns
to
maybe
reevaluate
the
the
question
of
access
off
of
65th
Street
is
that
right.
AQ
Well,
you
know
I
can't
imagine
it
ever
being
used
completely
for
the
factory
at
all
times,
just
because
it
is
so
heavily
used,
but
we
may
be
able
to
to
look
at
times
and
and
the
operation
of
the
factory
and
and
look
at
that
and
come
to
some
agreement
about
its
use.
B
AR
B
And
I'm
going
to
ask
one
more
question
about
the
floor
and
then
Matt
I'll.
Let
you
go
sorry,
but
as
I
understand
it,
the
the
volunteers
would
still
be
coming
on
65th
Street.
The
traffic
that
would
go
on
63rd
would
be
the
one
to
two
smaller
trucks
a
week
and
then
one
to
two
larger
trucks
a
month
did
I.
Have
that
right?
J
Didn't
want
to
get
I
just
wanted
to
colloquy
on
the
the
63rd
piece,
if
I,
if
you
don't
mind
Tara
so
so,
I
I
did
that
I
drove
that
spot
every
day,
all
summer,
taking
my
son
to
Thorne
nature,
Camp
I'm
a
bit
skeptical
of
anything
larger
than
a
school
bus,
really
making
that
turn
I'm
sure
you've
studied
it
in
detail,
but
that
is
a
that
is
quite
a
tight
turn
and
not
much
room
for
air.
J
Given
the
corner
there
with
the
storage
and
also
then
the
fall
off
to
the
marsh
so
and
then
you've
got
kids
playing
all
the
time,
so
I'm
I'm
a
bit
skeptical
that
that's
the
right
place
to
be,
especially
with
the
larger
stuff
I
know.
School
buses
can
do
it,
but
those
bigger
trucks,
I'm
very
skeptical
of
so
I
I,
would
be
very
encouraged
to
see
a
different
route
for
those
larger
trucks.
Having
done
that
drive
myself
all
summer.
AJ
I
have
two
questions.
The
first
one
is
I,
did
take
a
drive
out
there
and
went
into
one
some
of
the
neighborhoods
and
it's
closer
than
I
thought
it
would
be
so
I
visualized
a
loading
dock
that
was
open
and
said.
You
would
surely
hear
that,
but
Jay
am
I.
Did
I.
Remember
correctly,
that
you
said
the
doors,
the
windows,
everything
would
be
closed.
K
Loading
docks
so
basically
the
doors
will
only
be
open
dirt
for
deliveries
of
materials
and
for
the
removal
of
the
completed
modules.
Okay,.
AJ
K
I
I
would
say,
the
vast
majority
were
addressed:
I
can
go
through
them
individually.
I
think
there
was
a
request
to
to
treat
or
basically
ensure
that
the
access
road
that
the
storm
water
was
treated
and
but
that
hasn't
what
did
not
make
it
into
the
final
annexation
agreement.
B
All
right
sounds
Tara,
like
you're
done
so
that
and
I
speaking
of
conflicts
on
63rd
Street
I
heard
a
rumor
that
foreign
nature
experience
was
actually
planning
on
moving
in
the
not
too
distant
future.
Does
anybody
knows?
Is
that
correct.
AQ
I
can
speak
to
that
yeah,
so
they're
moving
their
Administration
offices
off
they're,
currently
they're
running
some
of
their
programs
in
their
Administration
in
that
building
and
they're
building
a
new
administration
building,
I
believe
in
Lafayette
and
they're
going
to
be
moving
into
that
their
programs
will
still
remain.
There
got.
AQ
I
really
didn't
have
a
lot
to
say:
I
think
that
the
package
is
is
pretty
thorough
and
shavna
gave
a
good
presentation.
I,
just
I
just
wanted
to
kind
of
reiterate
how
we
got
here.
The
school
district
built
started
construction
on
the
Central
Kitchen
some
years
ago
and
that
triggered
the
Water
needs
for
that
facility
triggered
the
need
for
this
annexation.
AQ
Unfortunately,
we
were
halfway
through
construction
when
that
was
discovered,
so
we
had
to
come
to
an
agreement
with
the
city
to
allow
construction
go
forward
and
if
we
followed
through
in
good
faith
with
the
annexation
agreement-
and
that
is
the
primary
reason
why
we're
here
with
our
annexation
process,
is
to
fulfill
that
commitment
and
in
parallel
at
that
time
we
were
also
exploring
what
Jay
was
talking
about
with
our
Tech
program,
which
we
already
have
constructions.
AQ
Trade
element
to
that,
and
so
I
know
housing
and
Human
Services
in
our
Tech
program
and
other
administrators
have
been
talking
about
this
exciting
opportunity
to
combine
these
two
that
our
program
with
this
facility
and
as
per
as
I
went
forward.
I
think
we
at
some
point.
It
seemed
to
make
a
lot
of
sense
to
put
these
together
on
the
same
annexation,
packets
and,
and
that's
where
we
are
today,
and
that's
really
all
I
have
to
say.
But
I
am
happy
to
answer
any
more
questions.
If
you
haven't.
B
Let's
see
none
thanks,
Glenn,
we
may
get
back
to
you
with
more
questions
or
comments
later
on.
I
appreciate
you
being
here,
that's
good
for
now
and
I
just
also
want
to
note
that
Susan
Lithgow,
the
executive
director
of
Flatirons
Habitat
for
Humanity
is
attending
tonight.
B
So
if
anyone
had
questions
for
her,
since
they
are
a
player
in
this
feel
free
to
speak
up
now
or
later
say
during
our
comments,
if
you
have
any
questions
for
her
but
for
announcing
no
more
hands,
I
think
we
can
go
to
public
testimony
Ryan.
Do
we
need
to
reread
those
rules
of
decorum.
Q
Happy
to
pull
those
up
and
read
them
again.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Emily
thank
you
for
pulling
this
up
and
to
to
confirm
that
the
city
has
set
out
to
ensure
that
we
have
productive
atmospheres.
During
our
open
comment
and
public
hearing,
we
appreciate
the
speakers
and
community
members
who
are
here
this
evening.
Q
To
reiterate
you
know
this
Vision
supports
physical
and
emotional
staff
for
community
members
staff
and
Council,
as
well
as
democracy
for
people
of
all
ages.
Identities
lived
experience
and
political
perspectives
more
in
this
decision
may
be
found
at
the
link
here
on
the
next
slide.
Please
I'll
share
a
few
examples
of
rules
of
decorum
found
in
the
boulder
revise
to
code
and
other
guidelines
that
support
this
vision.
Q
All
remarks
and
testimonies
shall
be
limited
to
matters
related
to
the
business.
No
participation
like
threats
or
use
other
forms
of
intimidation
against
any
person,
obscenity,
racial
epiphat
and
other
speech
and
behavior
that
disrupts
or
otherwise
impedes
the
ability
to
conduct
the
meetings
are
prohibited.
Q
B
Thank
you,
Ryan
all
right,
so
we've
got
17
people
signed
up
to
speak,
three
of
whom
are
pooling,
so
everyone
will
get
three
minutes
since
we
are,
did
make
a
slight
exception
to
our
rules.
A
couple
who
got
transferred
later,
except
for
one
the
pooling
person
will
get
five.
So
we
got
David,
Sue,
Cindy,
Warren
and
then
Joseph
riccio
is
the
cooling
person
so
David.
AS
Hello:
yes,
okay
for
disclosure,
I'm,
a
Boulder
County
Planning
commissioner,
but
I'm
speaking
only
as
an
affected
neighbor
in
2019
I
lived
in
the
city
and
had
the
opportunity
to
vote
for
you,
some
of
you
and
I'm
asking
for
your
help.
Now
the
issue
before
city
council
with
this
annexation
is,
should
an
industrial
Factory
that
operates
on
weekends,
be
allowed
in
a
public
Zone
near
residential
areas.
AS
The
answer
is
no
manufacturing
use
is
not
a
use
by
right
or
allowed
under
special
review
under
public
zoning
by
city
code
manufacturing
uses
explicitly
prohibited
under
public
zoning.
This
plain
and
important
fact
is
completely
missing
from
the
staff
packet
and
presentation
to
city
council,
even
though
it
should
be
front
and
center.
There
is
no
justification
for
allowing
an
industrial
Factory
in
public
zoning.
AS
Proponents
of
the
industrial
Factory
May
argue
that
what
is
before
the
city
council
is
merely
the
annexation
and
not
the
proposed
Factory
that
defies
common
sense
is
not
a
good
faith
argument.
We
just
sat
through
a
12-minute
presentation
by
Jay
and
parts
of
the
packet
are
devoted
to
the
proposed
Factory.
It's
tied
together.
The
approval
of
the
annexation
includes
approving
the
IGA.
The
IGA
specifically
includes
the
factory.
The
approval
of
the
annexation
includes
approving
proposed
ordinances,
which
also
incorporate
the
IGA
in
the
staff
packet
to
planning
board.
AS
The
project
description
stated
that
the
proposed
project
is
a
partnership
between
Boulder,
bbsd
and
Habitat
for
Humanity.
That's
the
industrial
Factory.
The
city
cannot
separate
consideration
of
annexation
from
consideration
of
the
industrial
Factory,
so
approving
the
annexation
means
you're.
Approving
manufacturing
use
in
a
public
Zone
CD
annexation
code
also
requires
considering
not
just
the
initial
zoning.
At
the
time
of
annexation.
AS
Staff
does
go
through
motions
of
this
analysis,
but
the
analysis
makes
little
sense.
Staff
somehow
concluded
that
public
zoning
is
quote
appropriate
for
the
proposed
use
of
the
site.
End
quote,
even
though
the
proposed
use
is
manufacturing
and
prohibited
in
public
zoning
staff.
Analysis
also
said
that
terms
and
conditions
will
ensure
future
development
respects
existing
Lifestyles
and
densities.
However,
a
factory
operating
on
weekends,
near
residential
neighborhoods
is
not
respecting
existing
Lifestyles
and
densities
staff.
Also,
States
quote
any
future
development
will
be
required
to
meet
City
standards.
AS
End
quote:
this
is
directly
contradicted
by
the
IGA,
where
bvsd
asserts
its
sovereignty
status.
The
staff
analysis
is
not
objective
view
of
the
proposed
project.
The
analysis
of
the
annexation
requirements
presented
to
city
council
is
deficient
and
does
not
allow
city
council
to
make
an
objective
determination
on
the
annexation
manufacturing
uses
explicitly
prohibited
by
city
code.
City
council
should
reject
the
annexation.
Thank
you.

Some
Ferrero
Marsh
is
the
critical
wildlife
habitat.
It's
also
a
naturally
formed
saline
wetland
in
a
non-coastal
area.
This
is
a
very
rare
type
of
marsh
in
this
part
of
the
country.
The
marsh
was
formed.
Thousands
of
years
ago,
I
have
an
elderly
friend,
whose
great
grandfather
told
him
Buffalo
used
to
wallow
in
the
marsh.
This
is
a
very
unique
habitat
and
has
a
long
and
meaningful
history.
Perhaps
the
city
in
bbsd
don't
appreciate
the
importance
of
the
marsh.
F
They
did
not
and
are
not
involving
an
acoustical
engineer
in
the
design
of
the
factory
they
plan
to
run
large
vehicular
traffic
on
63rd
Street
Which
is
less
than
20
feet
from
the
marsh,
and
this
traffic
will
be
very
heavy
thousands
of
trucks,
at
least
during
construction
visitors
to
the
marsh
and
children,
visiting
Thorne
access
to
complex
via
63rd
and
will
be
endangered
by
the
large
trucks
and
trailers.
The
Mars
wasn't
mentioned
in
the
annex
annexation
agreement.
F
There
is
no
mitigation
plan
for
the
marsh
no
environmental
impact
study
was
performed
and
the
September
22nd
city
planning
board
document
States.
The
factory
will
have
no
negative
impacts
on
the
marsh.
The
statement
is
unconscionable
and
untrue.
The
marshes
and
noise,
sensitive
environment
and
the
noise
associated
with
construction
and
Factory
opposition
operation
will
be
very
significant.
Additionally
the
amount
of
traffic
and
activity
during
an
effort
construction
will
be
overwhelming
for
a
wildlife
environment.
Wildlife
will
also
be
impacted
by
light
vibration.
F
Fumes
all
mentioned
in
the
County
planning
and
permitting
document
from
September
2021
also
have
noticed
the
city
regulations
that
protect
the
environment
at
every
other
location
in
Boulder.
From
being
that
are
except
this
one.
In
this
collaboration
between
bvsd
and
the
city,
the
land
is
owned
by
bvsd
and
bvsds
exempt
from
city
regulations.
Thus
the
city
can
circumvent
their
own
rules.
For
example,
the
city
can
build
a
manufacturing
plan
in
a
public
zoned
area
adjacent
to
a
critical
wildlife
habitat.
F
This
would
never
be
allowed
to
happen
elsewhere
and
it's
truly
shocking
that
officials
are
willing
to
let
it
happen
here
and
importantly,
in
this
no
rule
scenario,
there's
no
protector
of
the
interests
of
the
marsh.
This
runs
counter
to
Boulder's
widely
publicized
pro-environmental
stance
and
raises
questions
about
the
validity
of
that
perception
and
discussions
regarding
some
Bruno
Mars
at
the
open
space
Board
of
Trustees
meeting
November
9th.
The
trustee
stated.
This
just
feels
to
me
like
a
Requiem
for
Sombrero.
F
Yes,
it
does,
and
many
citizens
agreed
only
city
council
has
the
power
to
protect
Sombrero
Marsh.
At
this
time
you
can
delay
voting
on
The
Factory
tonight
and
take
time
to
evaluate
other
possible
sites,
including
Land,
close
to
the
proposed
side,
which
has
less
environmental
impacts.
If
you
vote
Yes
tonight,
construction
on
the
factory
will
begin
shortly
in
the
Marshall
very
likely
fade
away.
This
will
be
a
terrible
loss
for
Boulder,
please
reevaluate
potential
construction
sites
and
support
the
relocation
of
the
factory,
some
of
our
marshes
and
historic
and
unique
ecological
site.
F
B
AU
Hello,
my
name
is
Joseph
prisio
I
live
next
to
Sombrero
Marsh
in
unincorporated
Boulder
County
I'm
here
online
to
express
the
view
that
the
school
district
campus
at
6500
Arapahoe
have
is
an
unsuitable
site
for
constructing
the
proposed
modular
home
Factory.
The
large
manufacturing
facility
will
extend
to
within
100
feet
of
Sombrero
March
open
space,
which
in
turn,
abuts
four
County
residential
neighborhoods.
As
you've
already
heard.
AU
All
the
residents
in
the
area
still
recount
Native
American
folklore
describing
a
time
in
which
bison
would
wallow
in
the
salty
mud
flats,
but
that
was
then-
and
this
is
now
the
proposed
manufacturing
facility
will
introduce
a
new
level
of
use
and
a
new
industrial
type
of
use
in
a
look
location
presently
having
relatively
low
use
intensity.
To
quote
a
county
planner.
The
use
may
not
be
consistent
with
several
Boulder
Valley
comprehensive
plan
policies.
AU
The
route
along
which
all
traffic
will
travel
for
factory
construction
and
later
operations,
namely
63rd
Street
south
of
Arapahoe
Ave,
will
pass
within
feet
of
both
the
wetlands
and
the
Columbine
Mobile
Home
Park,
which
is
one
of
the
four
impacted
neighborhoods
near
the
Thorne
ecological
Institute,
63rd
Street
merges
into
paved
and
unpaved
spaces
between
buildings
and
the
travel
route
assumes
less
definition.
This
general
area
includes
two
former
bus
fueling
stations
that
held
buried
fuel
tanks
during
closure
activities.
Contaminated
soils
were
encountered
both
Tang
pits.
AU
These
incidents
in
a
separate
environmental
incident
in
2020
illustrate
that
any
industrial
activity
creates
some
potential
potential
for
soil
and
groundwater
contamination
to
qualify
for
a
hot
loan
for
factory
construction.
The
city
commissioned
the
phase
one
environmental
site
assessment
report
for
the
factory
site.
The
report
sought
only
to
identify
recognized
environmental
conditions,
indicating
the
presence
of
likely
president's
presence
of
hazardous
substance
on
the
factory
site
it
found.
None
on
the
factory
site
from
this
city
staff
has
issued
a
statement
that
the
project
will
not
result
in
any
significant
impact
on
the
quality
of
human
environment.
AU
This
conclusion
is
not
justified
by
the
limited
scope
of
the
phase.
One
study,
the
process
of
site
grading
will
require
several
thousand
round-trips
by
Earth
moving
equipment,
all
of
which
will
travel
along
63rd
Street
passing
by
Columbine
in
the
wetlands
construction
vehicles
will
emit
glaring
light
during
Dawn
and
dusk.
Loud
sounds
and
fumes
that
will
affect
the
Columbine
residence,
which
include
children.
Vehicles
used
for
later
Factory
operations
will
have
similar
effects.
Some
of
the
similar
effects
an
alternate
route,
namely
65th,
avoids
Columbine
and
the
wetlands
65th
is
signalized
short,
concrete,
paved
and
Resident
free.
AU
It
avoids
the
Foreign
Institute.
Instead,
skirting
District
buildings,
district
offices
and
a
campus
Side
Road
project
proponents
maintained
that
65th
is
not
viable
because
of
existing
traffic
congestion.
However,
directing
all
traffic
along
63rd
shifts
the
entire
traffic
burden
onto
the
Columbine
resonance,
an
isolated
and
vulnerable
group,
and
for
this
and
for
environmental
reasons
also
63rd
Street
is
also
not
viable.
AU
AU
Council
members,
this
evening
you
are
considering
a
motion
to
approve
an
IGA
with
the
district
for
the
purpose
of
constructing
a
large
manufacturing
facility
close
to
Sombrero
Marsh,
which
are
both
residential
neighborhoods
I,
respectfully
respectfully.
Ask
that
you
resolve
tonight
to
post
loan
approval
until
traffic
studies
yield
an
equitable
traffic
solution
and
until
a
full
environmental
impact
statement
can
be
prepared.
Thank
you.
AV
We
would
be
significantly
negatively
affected
by
the
construction
and
operation
of
the
factory
at
this
location,
the
inside
the
factory,
loud
noises
and
external
lighting
associated
with
the
factory
and
the
truck
trailer
traffic
on
63rd
Street,
which
significantly
detract
from
the
desirability
and
value
of
the
homes
around
the
proposed
Factory.
Most
importantly,
the
construction
and
operation
of
the
proposed
Factory
is
environmentally
irresponsible.
AV
The
construction,
noise
traffic
and
lighting
associated
with
the
proposed
Factory
would
have
a
significant
negative
impact
on
the
adjacent
environmentally
sensitive
wetlands
and
Associated
wildlife.
I
implore
you
to
find
another
location
for
the
proposed
Factory.
This
location
is
simply
not
an
appropriate
location
for
this
type
of
facility.
However,
if
the
city
and
bvsd
choose
to
ignore
these
ejections
and
proceed
with
the
annexation
and
construction
of
the
factory,
the
city
must
at
least
ensure
the
following
conditions
are
imposed
on
bvsd
through
the
annexation
agreement
or
the
intergovernmental
agreement.
AV
One
employ
a
sound
engineer,
make
every
possible
adjustment
to
decrease
the
amount
of
sound
emitted
from
the
factory
to
build
a
sizable
and
aesthetically
pleasing
noise
reduction
fence
barrier
or
embankment
around
the
factory
to
mitigate
noise
and
place
Evergreens
on
the
opposite
side
of
the
fence
or
barrier
to
mitigate
noise
and
appearance.
Three
have
trucks
and
trailers
enter
the
area
directly
from
Arapahoe
Road,
rather
than
63rd
Street
63rd
Street
runs
within
feet
of
Sombrero
Marsh,
and
the
additional
traffic
noise
and
Emissions
would
severely
negatively
impact
the
wetlands,
the
wildlife
and
the
residents.
AV
Four
make
sure
the
wetlands
and
Sombrero
Marsh
are
protected
by
a
significant
buffer,
such
as
Evergreens
or
a
physical
barrier.
In
any
areas
adjacent
to
where
increased
truck
traffic
is
expected,
eliminate
the
use
five
eliminate
the
use
of
backup,
alarms,
six
consider
noise
when
making
decisions
about
waste
disposal.
Seven
do
not
allow
the
factory
to
operate
on
Saturdays,
eight
change,
the
appearance
of
the
factory
to
approximate
that
of
the
school
and
nine
postpone
the
plan.
Construction
start
date
so
there's
time
to
make
changes
to
the
factory.
With
regard
to
these
issues,
thank
you.
B
For
your
consideration,
thank
you.
Your
time's
up,
appreciate
your
comments
and
just
wanted
to
pass
along
a
reminder
from
our
interpreter
Elena
to
speak
slowly
to
all
the
testifiers
one
year.
So
we
can
thanks
so
much
now
we
have
Alex
Cassidy
William,
Platts
and
Mary
Bachmann.
G
AW
All
right
good
evening,
my
name
is
Alex
Cassidy
and
I
applaud
the
efforts
to
address
affordable
housing
needs
and
of
the
area,
but
the
way
you've
gone
about
facility
facilitating
this
project
is
really
really
troubling.
AW
Among
other
things,
appearances
really
do
matter
and
having
City
employee
Jay
sugnet
working
on
behalf
of
BFB
vsd
is
a
massive
behind
the
scenes
conflict
of
interest.
AW
So
the
various
aspects
of
this
project
that
are
troubling
are
the
way
that
it
was
concealed
from
area
residents
for
a
long
period
of
time,
and
residents
were
completely
excluded
from
both
the
site,
selection
and
design
processes.
AW
The
city
of
Boulder
has
a
promise
of
community
engagement
posted
on
the
website
that
was
never
followed
through
on
with
any
of
the
communities
surrounding
this
site,
and
then
the
thing
that
we've
heard
a
lot
about,
which
is
the
heavy
traffic
to
be
routed
on
63rd,
Street,
adjacent
to
Columbine,
mobile
home
park
and
Sombrero
Marsh.
AW
So
one
of
the
things
that
I
heard
when
I
recently
spoke
to
somebody
who
has
first-hand
knowledge
of
the
factory
site
selection
process,
it
was
explained
that
building
on
bvsd
land
was
a
huge
bonus
for
the
factory,
allowing
the
project
to
skirt
around
compliance
with
almost
all
of
Boulder's
land
use
regulations.
AW
AW
The
zoning
well
David
talked
pretty
clearly
about
the
zoning
and
then
the
traffic
and
environment.
At
the
very
least,
an
environmental
impact
assessment
and
traffic
study
should
both
be
completed
for
a
huge
project
like
this
Factory.
AW
Heavy
traffic
should
be
routed
on
65th
and
not
63rd,
where
it
will
adversely
affect
residents
of
the
combine
Mobile,
Home
Park,
and
then
a
traffic
study,
yeah
traffic
study
that
includes
the
construction
should
be
completed,
and
it's
not
enough
to
say
that
you're
going
to
get
an
acoustic
engineer
involved.
AW
You
also
need
to
take
the
recommendations
of
the
acoustic
engineer
and
involve
them,
wrap
them
into
the
project
and
also
Gathering
water
off
of
the
road
63rd
there
and
treating
it
means
that
that
water
is
being
robbed
out
of
the
marsh
I'm
out
of
time,
but
we
need
barriers
too.
Thank
you.
Thank.
AX
Good
I
think
this
is
a
very
good
project,
but
in
the
worst
possible
location,
in
addition
to
the
points
that
have
already
been
raised,
another
feature
that
we
found
out
about
is
that
regalia
Hills
forms
a
natural
Amphitheater
that
reflects
sound
back
towards
the
marsh
and
amplifies
it.
We
learned
this
when
we
were
working
with
XL
Energy
and
they
brought
in
a
sound
engineer
to
analyze
it.
AX
It's
there's
residences
in
close
proximity
on
four
sides,
there's
also
open
space
and
the
throne
nature
experience
and
the
marsh
I'm
also
worried
about
the
contradictory
information
being
put
out
by
the
city
you're.
Now
talking
about
12
to
15
homes
per
year.
In
a
zoom
meeting
we
had
in
September,
they
were
talking
about
one
every
six
weeks
that
would
be
about
eight
per
year,
but
then,
in
a
subsequent
meeting
with
bdsd
in
November,
we
were
told
it
could
be
more
like
80
homes
per
year
and
based
on
the
phase
one
environmental
assessment.
AX
We're
also
told
that
there
will
be
no
noise
issues
because
they'll
keep
the
doors
closed
and
they
will
disconnect
the
backup,
alarms
on
vehicles
and
forklifts
I,
don't
think,
that's
feasible
when
you're
gluing
and
painting
and
staining
that
you're
just
going
to
keep
all
the
doors
closed
and
people
are
going
to
be
coming
and
going.
There
are
going
to
be
deliveries.
AX
Having
that
right
near
the
marsh
open
space
would
be
would
ruin
it.
I've
also
contacted
the
Native
American
rights
fund,
and
they
put
me
in
touch
with
the
Arapahoe
Nation.
Older
was
the
center
of
the
Arapahoe
Nation.
Until
they
were
driven
out.
However,
they
still
consider
its
sacred
grounds
and
the
sombrero
Marsh
is
the
last
pristine
Native
American
land
left
in
Boulder.
It
would
be
a
major
loss
to
ruin
it
and
the
Arapahoe
nation
and
the
Native
American
rights
fund
are
receptive
to
helping
so
I.
AX
This
could
very
well
end
up
in
court
and
I
wish.
You
would
consider
some
other
locations.
Bdsd
has
a
facility
for
their
buses
close
to
campus,
that
isn't
an
area
zoned
for
industrial
use.
It
looks
like
there
would
be
room
for
the
factory
there
directly
across
the
street
is
Belmont
power
plant.
They
have
a
large
open
space
that
used
to
be
used
for
coal
storage,
I'm
sure
they
would
be
receptive
to
donating
part
of
that
land
for
the
factory
and
that's
about
a
15-minute
walk
from
campus.
It
would
be
close
by.
AA
Hello,
this
is
Mary
Bachmann
I,
also
go
by
as
Marisha
Bachman
and
I
want
to.
Thank
you
Council
for
being
available
to
listen
to
our
concerns
as
unincorporated
Boulder
constituents
and
I
would
like
to
just
address.
You
know
thank
everybody
who
has
participated
as
our
neighborhood
I
do
want
to
reiterate
that
the
idea
of
having
this
modular
Factory
here
within
our
neighborhood
is
it's
disappointing
and
it's
detrimental
to
our
location
of
selection
selection,
of
where
we
chose
to
live.
AA
I've
heard
a
lot
of
conversations
about
the
road,
but
I
also
want
to
incorporate
not
just
63rd
but
also
Arapahoe
I
understand
there
may
be
some
reconstruction
of
it,
but
I
live
off
of
West
View,
and
that
is
our
access
in
and
out,
and
that
is
incredibly
congested.
As
Boulder
has
grown.
I've
lived
here.
AA
My
entire
life
I
lived
in
the
city
and
now
I
live
in
an
unincorporated,
but
I
have
seen
the
the
amount
of
people
driving
in
and
out
of
Boulder,
and
so
now
you
no
longer
can
have
specific
times
of
when
people
are
commuting
in
and
out.
I've
also
witnessed
as
a
neighbor
here,
Arapahoe
Rich
high
school
students,
speeding,
Out
Racing
out
intimidating
many
of
the
residents
that
are
trying
to
pull
out
of
the
way
that
Glenn
had.
AA
You
know
responded
that
they
used
60
the
fifth,
but
they
also
have
a
little
outlet
that
allows
them
to
go
off
to
the
side
heading
out,
heading
East
on
Arapahoe.
These
are
concerns
of
mine
for
for
predominantly
safety
I,
don't
feel
safe,
driving
home
very
often
because
people
on
63rd
must
turn
to
the
left
or
to
the
right
to
the
right
if
they
have
to
go
into
Columbine,
otherwise
they
could
use
it
as
an
emerging
line
to
continue
on
out
of
Arapahoe.
It's
very,
very
dangerous.
It's
also
a
lot
of
traffic.
AA
So
that's
my
point
on
that.
I
am
also
concerned
very
much
about
living
right
across
the
street,
from
where
the
constructions
can
be
meaning
open
space.
My
backyard
butts
up
to
that
open
space,
so
the
noise
level
will
be
there
I'm
very
opposed
to
having
the
facility
run
on
a
Saturday.
That
is
my
time
that
I
can
enjoy
my
home.
My
peacefulness,
my
neighborhood,
the
sombrero
Marsh.
AA
Being
able
to
walk
in
open
space
and
not
having
that
noise
resonating
onto
you
know
my
Saturday
weekend,
so
that's
all
I
have
to
say
everybody
else
said
everything
wonderful
for
me.
Thank
you
for
your
consideration.
Thank
you
for
serving
Boulder
City
and
I'd
like
it
to
be
a
Unity
with
this
city
of
Boulder,
Boulder,
Valley,
School,
District,
Boulder,
housing
Partners,
as
well
as
Ridgely
High,
originally
high
hills.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Thank.
AY
Hello
so
I'd
like
to
thank
the
council
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
and
I'd
like
to
especially
thank
members
of
the
council,
who
have
come
out
over
the
previous
weeks
to
inspect
the
logistics
of
this
project.
What
you
may
not
have
seen
or
experienced
is
the
sound
in
sight
that
this
project
would
entail
as
Bill
put
it.
The
marsh
and
the
open
space
are
an
Amphitheater
all
of
our
homes
on
the
opposite.
Side
of
this
proposed
Factory
are
actually
above
it
and
sound
essentially
travels
unobstructed.
AY
We
appreciate
that
the
proponents
of
the
factory
sent
out
notices
to
homeowners
within
600
feet,
but,
honestly,
it
wouldn't
matter
if
the
homes
were
within
600
feet
or
2
000
feet
the
sound
travels.
Everyone
is
implicated
as
well
as
the
fact
that
if
you've
looked
at
the
site
of
the
factory
itself,
it
is
actually
elevated.
AY
It
will
be
above
the
marsh
and
basically
in
Clear
Sight
of
everyone
in
the
neighborhood
like
a
ziggurat
on
the
hill,
and
so
it's
quite
obstructive,
like
others
who
have
spoken.
I.
Think
I
speak
for
my
wife
too,
that
we
do
support
the
idea
of
the
factory.
We
support
the
spirit
of
collaboration
between
the
city
and
the
school
district
and
Habitat
for
Humanity.
That's
for
a
great
cause,
but
we
do
not
support
the
location
of
the
factory.
AY
We've
already
heard
a
great
deal
of
concern
on
legal
grounds,
environmental
grounds,
the
grounds
of
us
as
neighbors.
The
factory
could
still
serve
its
purpose,
even
if
it's
moved
just
a
short
distance
away,
just
even
across
Arapahoe,
it
could
still
serve
as
an
educational
facility.
It
could
still
serve
the
less
fortunate
of
the
community
who
would
receive
these
homes,
and
we
asked
the
council.
You
know,
if
not
to
reject
this
annexation
to
at
least
delay
it
and
give
strong
consideration
to
nearby
sites
so
that
everyone
can
still
win.
Particularly,
you
know
the
neighborhood.
AY
B
AZ
Claw,
can
you
hear
me?
Yes,
hello,
Mr,
Mayor
and
the
council
members.
Thank
you
for
letting
me
speak
here.
My
name
is
Mohan
I
live
on
the
1402
Meadowlark
Drive,
just
nearest
to
the
factory
I'm,
a
proud
ball
right.
Ball
remains
where
nature
and
environment
is
valued,
a
brand
of
trust
and
high
standards,
and
that's
I
speak
of
that
to
all
my
friends
outside
of
Boulder
anywhere
in
the
country
where
quality
of
life
matters
I
like
to
share
a
few
thoughts
about
the
factory
building.
AZ
Affordable
homes
is
a
great
cause,
in
fact
the
as
a
taxpayer
I'm
supportive
of
the
8.5
million
dollars
towards
this
project,
but
we're
trying
to
solve
one
problem
by
creating
two
other
problems.
That
makes
no
sense
to
me
by
harming
the
wildlife
at
some
brighter
Marsh,
but
hurting
the
quality
of
life
in
the
neighborhood
area.
AZ
AZ
We
should
not
be
treated
as
unworthy
because
you're
trying
to
help
homeless
by
putting
this
Factory
in
our
backyard
and
hurting
the
quality
of
life
here,
I
kindly
request
moving
the
factory
to
out
of
the
city
where
Less
in
into
Interruption
to
the
life
life
of
the
people,
as
well
as
the
nature.
With
that
I
hope
you,
you
all,
are
hearing
the
concerns
expressed
by
our
neighbors
and
seriously
they
consider
making
changes
or
moving
the
factory.
Thank
you
for
the
opportunity.
AZ
U
This
land,
can
you
hear
me
and
tell
me
if
there's
any
problem
instantly
thanks
this
land
is
a
Playa
geologic
formation
formed
by
wind
and
or
land
subsidence,
Sombrero
marsh
and
a
factory
should
not
be
built
anywhere
around
our
open
space.
Some
bro
is
the
city
of
Boulder,
open
space
and
I
was
very
upset
with
the
fact
that
I
heard
about
this
at
planning
board
on
in
September,
6th,
I,
think
and
open
space.
Board
of
Trustees
I
went
to
a
meeting
last
week
and
they
hadn't
even
heard
about
this.
U
So
this
is
an
example
of
you
know.
I
follow
these
eight
City
boards,
it's
horribly
time
consuming
as
you
can
possibly
manage
three
of
them
conflict
with
each
other.
So
that's
a
problem,
but
the
city
needs
to
integrate
its
different
processes.
I
thought
it's
great
that
now
you're
going
to
think
of
having
a
council
member
go
also
be
involved
with
ex-officio
being
at
the
board
meetings
as
well
as
different
boards
representing.
U
You
know,
like
planning,
board
and
landmarks
board
having
people
going
between
the
two,
because
the
city's
working
against
itself
in
so
many
ways
they
just
don't
know
what
one
board's
doing
and
how
that's
affecting
another
board
planning
board
being,
of
course,
the
most
significant,
but
I
thought
it
was
kind
of
ironic.
Also
that
Jay
segnet
mentioned
that
you
know
and
I
love.
You
know
I
followed
Green
Building
for
30
years.
This
is
great.
U
You
know,
modular
housing
is
fabulous,
but
it
was
ironic
that
he
said
that
in
one
of
the
solutions
of
manufactured
housing
is
that
you
don't
have
a
house.
You
know
you're
not
impacted
next
door
when
someone's
building
a
house
next
door
and
you've
got
the
cement
trucks
and
you've
got
all
the
stuff
there.
It's
all
done
in
a
central
place,
but
then,
ironically,
it's
impacting
a
Marshland,
a
national
margin.
You
know
I
mean
not
National
an
Open
Space
City
Marsh
our
public
space,
as
people
have
mentioned
the
public
zoning.
U
This
is
what
happens
when
you
grow
Bolder,
bigger
than
it's
supposed
to
be
grown,
I'm
horrified
that
we
approved
CU
South.
That
was
an
underhanded
under
the
table,
negotiation
and
agreement
that
should
never
have
happened
illegal.
It's
blatantly
illegal
that
it
happened
in
the
first
place.
It's
going
to
hugely
impact
growth
and
development
in
Boulder
and
cause
more
demand
for
more
situations
that
we're
in
experiencing
this
evening,
so
I
say
absolutely
no
to
this
location,
I
love
manufactured
housing,
but
certainly
not
here,
and
certainly
inform
osbt
before
you
make
moves
like
this
done.
BA
Hello,
can
you
hear
me
and
are
my
slides
up?
Yes
and
yes,
all
right.
Thank
you.
Boulder
County
ordinance
says
its
citizens
require
protection
from
excessive,
unnecessary
and
unreasonable
noise.
The
factory
project
has
all
three:
we
will
be
inundated
with
the
sounds
of
backup,
beeps
dirt,
moving
and
pounding
on
the
35
foot
high.
Nearly
football
field
size,
steel
building
for
not
just
eight
but
11
hours
a
day
for
most
of
next
year.
This
will
be
much
worse
than
the
kitchen
construction
we
endured.
BA
BA
The
eight
doors
and
four
windows
were
recently
shown
facing
us
to
the
east
will
let
out
sound
even
if
they
are
closed.
This
configuration
is
much
worse
than
the
single
north-south
drive-through
I
heard
earlier.
This
will
guarantee
that
we
will
hear
saws
and
nail
guns
instead
of
birds.
The
only
question
is
how
much
overcode
it
might
be,
especially
when
production
is
ramped
up
next
slide.
Please
next
slide:
please
an
acoustic
engineer
should
have
been
hired
first,
not
last,
please
ask
Jay
why
he
has
refused
request
for
this
for
a
year.
He
won't
tell
us.
BA
BA
Why
is
keeping
the
openings
closed
in
the
FAQ,
but
not
in
the
draft
IGA
we
will
have
no
recourse,
if
not
written.
Please
ask:
why
did
staff
who
said
this
project
was
okay
for
open
space
in
March
know
about
the
approximately
20
000
cubic
yards
to
fill
and
thousands
of
big
trucks
on
63rd
for
most
of
the
year
did
they
say?
Okay,
before
the
change
from
65th
to
63rd,
the
FAQ
portrays
12
to
15
houses
as
a
minimal
disruption
per
year,
increasing
to
50
to
80,
multiplies
the
noise
and
trucks
to
extreme
disruption.
BA
If
this
precedes
at
all,
especially
with
no
more
restrictions,
you
are
agreeing
to
majorly
disrupt
the
neighborhood
for
most
of
the
2023
and
forever
to
degrade
our
quality
of
life
and
home
and
improving
Ponderosa
is
sacrificing
Columbine
the
neighborhoods,
the
open
space
and
Marsh
and
students
at
the
Nature
Center,
who
won't
see
any
loyal
Wildlife.
That
has
been
scared
away.
Neither
the
neighborhood
nor
BF
bvsd
asked
for
this
Factory
that
belongs
in
an
industrial
Zone.
Please
stop
imposing
Anonymous
thanks
for
your
time
and
consideration.
AT
I'm
Karen
holwig
and
I'm
here
tonight
as
chair
of
the
open
space
Board
of
Trustees,
to
present
a
statement
unanimously
approved
by
osbt
at
a
special
meeting
on
November
14th.
The
board
would
like
to
remind
council
members
and
the
Boulder
Valley
School
District
of
the
value
of
some
Borough
Marsh
and
to
underscore
the
requests.
The
open
space
and
Mountain
Park
staff
made
regarding
this
matter.
AT
Sombrero
Marsh
is
a
unique
and
valuable
Wetland.
Both
the
Boulder
Valley
comp
plan
and
the
Boulder
County
comp
plan
clearly
State
the
environmental
significance
of
the
marsh
the
city
began,
acquiring
the
marsh
and
its
surrounding
wetlands.
In
the
1990s
and
in
2005
city
council
designated
Sombrero
Marsh
as
a
habitat,
Conservation
Area
Sombrero
Marsh
is
a
rare,
Alkali
Marsh
that
supports
a
variety
of
microorganisms,
insects
and
Wildlife
and
is
a
vital
part
of
the
Rocky
Mountain
Flyway.
AT
Each
year,
important
educational
opportunities
are
provided
to
thousands
of
Boulder
school
children
and
adults
at
Sombrero
Marsh
as
a
Cooperative
effort
by
Boulder
Valley,

District,
Thorne,
ecological
Institute

and
Mountain
Parks
Department

Osbt
supports
osmp
staff's
previously
submitted
comments
provided
during
the
development
review
period.
AT
There
were
four
requests
that,
prior
to
construction
or
reconstruction
of
any
Structure,
Parking,
Lot
or
other
Improvement
on
the
bvsd
site
that
one
osmp
staff
will
be
consulted
to
mitigate
lighting
and
noise
impacts
to
Wildlife
and
resources
on
the
adjacent
March.
Two
that
bvsdn8
or
HHS
will
satisfy
the
recommendations
outlined
in
the
applicant's
natural
resource
assessment
dated
October
15
2021,
including
consultations
with
U.S
fish
and
wildlife
service,
and
three
next
slide.
AT
Please
that
bvsd
paved
this
road
extension
from
63rd
Street
across
the
site
to
City
standard,
including
storm
water
control
and
otherwise
improve
the
road
as
approved
by
the
city
and
finally,
four
provide
additional
information
on
the
current
and
proposed
future
vehicular
access
and
traffic
flow
around
the
site
and
propose
changes
to
Historic
drainage
patterns,
to
help
staff
better
evaluate
impacts
and
benefits
to
City
interests.
Thank
you
for
your
consideration
of
this
matter.
AT
L
We
go
Karen,
it's
okay!
If
I
ask
you
a
couple
of
questions.
Sure,
first
of
all,
thank
you
so
much
for
to
you
and
for
all
the
open
space
Board
of
Trustees
for
for
putting
together
that
letter
and
sending
to
council.
That
was
really
really
helpful.
I
wanted
to
address
the
third
and
fourth
point
in
your
letter,
which
I
think
both
relate
to
the
to
the
63rd
Street,
which
we
were
talking
about
a
little
earlier
and
I
suspect
we'll
be
talking
about
born
in
a
few
minutes
here.
L
If,
if,
if
the
access,
the
Angus
and
an
egress
access
to
the
factory
for
those
small
trucks
a
couple
times
a
week
in
those
big
trucks,
a
couple
times
a
month
was
shifted
from
63rd
Street
to
65th
Street,
and
that
is
away
from
the
marsh.
Would
that
start
to
satisfy
the
third
and
fourth
concern
that
the
open
space
Board
of
Trustees
raised
in
their
letter.
AT
We
discussed
that
in
in
the
board
and
felt
it
was
more
appropriate
for
staff
to
be
involved
in
the
technical
decisions
about
that,
which
is
what
number
three
and
four
say.
As
you
know,
so
that's
the
best
I
can
tell
you,
but
the
the
as
you
can
see
from
that
last
Slide.
The
location
is,
you
know
very
close
between
the
fence
that
demarcs,
the
northern
boundary
of
the
marsh
and
the
road.
L
Right
and
maybe
I'll,
this
is
a
better
question
to
address
to
Dan
Burke
when
we
get
him
on
here
in
a
few
minutes,
but
I
guess
I'm
asking
for
more
of
a
sense
of
the
board
Karen,
it
sounds
like
the
sense
of
the
board
on
was
that
closeness
of
the
63rd
Street
Road
to
the
marsh
was
of
concern.
L
Is
it
your
sense,
based
upon
the
discussions
you've
had
with
your
colleagues
on
the
open
space
board
of
trustee
that
getting
that
front
traffic
off
of
63rd
and
away
from
the
marsh
would
be
advantageous
just
from
the
board's
perspective.
AT
The
board
was
split
in
their
view
of
what
we
should
ask
as
a
board
as
opposed
to
what
staff
should
negotiate.
Okay.
B
Thanks
Karen
for
representing
the
board
last
two
speakers
are
raviv
Turner
and
Gary
Pollard.
AD
Yes,
can
you
guys
hear
me?
Yes,
thanks
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
to
the
council,
members
I
think
other
people
already
addressed
most
of
the
points
that
I
wanted
to
make.
My
name
is
raviv
Turner
I'm,
a
concerned
resident
at
Ridge
leels
and
while
I
support,
affordable
housing,
modular
arms
and
Habitat
for
Humanity
I
do
not
support
the
full-blown
Factory
at
6500
Arapahoe
Avenue
in
the
midst
of
Power
Residential,
open
space
area
with
a
really
limited,
Community
input.
Other
members
already
talked
about
it.
AD
AD
This
was
already
mentioned:
lack
of
transparency
and
Community
involvement
in
the
factory
side,
selection
and
planning
process,
which
goes
against
the
BBC
policy
of
community
involvement
in
the
decision.
Making.
Third
is
the
impact
of
heavy
traffic
noise,
the
new
night
lightning
on
the
sombrero,
Marsh
wildlife
and
open
space,
which
again
goes
against
Boulder's,
poor
environment
policies,
the
ongoing
heavy
machinery,
noise,
plastic
films,
vibrations,
new
Paving
and
Lighting
in
the
areas,
and
the
last
concern
around
Factory
operation
on
Saturdays
and
the
previous
days
refusal
to
negotiate
a
good
neighbor
agreement.
AD
In
addition,
I'd
like
to
request
that
Boulder's
noise
ordinance
953
exceeding
decibels,
some
levels
prohibited
being
forced
if,
when
the
factory
takes
place
here,
I
would
also
like
to
understand
why
the
recommendation
by
the
Boulder
County
Planning
Department
from
September,
9th
2021
I,
didn't
get
included
in
this
project,
and
last
I
would
like
to
request
a
traffic
study
be
completed
for
the
campus
and
for
landscape
barriers
to
be
added.
Thanks
for
the
opportunity
to
address
the
council
members
tonight,
foreign.
B
I
BB
You
hear
me:
yes,
this
is
Kathy
Taylor
I'm
speaking
on
behalf
of
Gary
paler
who's
sitting.
Here
with
me,
the
plan
for
annexation
in
order
to
build
the
modular
housing
factory
in
east
Boulder,
was
Far
Downstream
before
a
few
neighbors
received
a
small
postcard.
Quite
frankly,
speaking
tonight
feels
futile
the
people
behind
this
8
million
dollar
Enterprise
have
the
influence
and
a
vested
interest
in
its
completion.
BB
The
impact
on
open
space
and
the
sombrero
Marsh
pollution,
traffic
and
noise
are
all
obvious
obstacles
and
have
been
previously
mentioned,
but
still
in
the
already
crowded,
Industrial
and
Commercial
East
Boulder
area,
the
factory
will
most
likely
be
built.
We
have
lived
on
Meadowlark
Drive
for
32
years,
and
it
is
personal
for
us.
We
had
hoped
to
live
out
our
lives
in
our
home
without
being
squeezed
out
by
dense
industrial
growth.
BB
Boulder
is
an
ever
expanding
City
with
exponential
growth
and
no
slowing
down
in
sight,
as
companies
continue
to
expand
into
Colorado
and
especially
Boulder.
It
is
astounding
that
the
best
place
to
build
a
factory
manufacturing
50
to
80
homes
a
year
would
be
on
school
property
in
a
congested
commercial
area
adjacent
to
a
residential
neighborhood,
many
neighbors
have
done
their
homework.
Our
understanding
is
that
there
has
been
an
ongoing
lack
of
transparency
and
a
conflict
of
interest
on
the
part
of
the
project
managers.
BB
If
the
first
five
years
are
dedicated
to
refurbishing
Ponderosa,
how
much
would
it
cost
to
purchase
homes
versus
building
the
factory
and
who
is
going
to
enforce
the
truck
volume?
Also,
thank
you
so
much
to
the
council,
members
or
other
council
members
for
acknowledging
the
very
close
proximity
to
residential
homes.
Thank
you.
So
much.
Please
consider.
B
Thanks
very
much
for
that
and
with
that
we're
going
to
bring
the
public
hearing
to
a
close
and
I'm
going
to
do
a
time
check
here
with
folks,
we've
been
sitting
for
a
long
time,
I'm
going
to
propose
that
we
ask
any
follow-up
questions
we
have
from
the
public
hearing
and
then
take
a
five
minute
break
and
then
come
back
for
deliberations.
Does
that
work
for
folks,
some
generally
nodding
heads
say.
B
L
Yeah
thanks
Aaron
I
just
have
one
follow-up
question
and
then
we
can.
We
can
go
to
comments
of
the
Break,
and
this
is
probably
I,
don't
know
to
Jay
or
to
Kurt.
You
know
we
talked
a
little
bit
in
our
early
questions
before
the
public
hearing
about
this
access
of
the
one
or
two
small
trucks
a
week
in
the
the
egress
of
one
or
two
large
trucks,
as
they
take
the
mobile
homes
out
or
modular
homes
out
one
or
two
trucks
a
month.
So
it
sounds
like
a
pretty
low
volume.
L
We
talked
about
the
the
debate
between
63rd
Street,
which
of
course
is
a
long
convoluted
street
that
is
next
to
the
marsh
and
next
to
the
mobile
home
park
in
65th
Street,
which
at
least
on
my
Google
Map,
is
much
much
shorter
route
and
it
doesn't
go
by
the
marsh
or
the
mobile
home
park.
I
heard
what
Glenn
said
as
far
as
access
to
their
their
employee
parking
and
so
on
and
so
forth.
But
a
couple
trucks
a
week
doesn't
seem
like
a
much
so
I.
L
Guess
that
was
a
lead-up
to
a
question
to
either
Jay
or
or
Kurt.
Do
you
guys
have
a
view
or
a
feeling
on
on
on
this
on
65th
Street
versus
63rd
Street
as
we're
as
we're
trying
to
kind
of
talk
a
little
bit
about
this?
We
eventually
we'll
have
a
discussion
with
Glenn
about
this.
I
know
that
that
he
has
an
input,
I
kind
of
curious.
What
our
city
staff
says
about
that.
BC
Thanks
Bob
Kurt
fernauer,
director
of
Housing
and
Human
Services
and
Jay
may
have
something
to
add,
as
well
I
think
from
from
the
from
the
use
of
the
factory
perspective,
it
certainly
makes
sense
to
have
that
track.
Traffic
go
up
and
down
65th
versus
63rd.
BC
The
individuals
that
will
be
working
in
the
factory
will
be
parking
in
the
same
parking
lot
that
the
students
and
staff
Parkins
I,
don't
really
think.
That's
an
issue
and
I
haven't
heard
that
as
a
concern
either
I
I.
BC
My
assumption
is,
with
the
low
volume
of
of
trucks,
My
Hope
Is
that
we
would
be
able
to
figure
out
what
those
schedules
look
like
of
you
know
what
the
busy
times
of
the
day
are
that
Glenn
had
mentioned,
and
maybe
you
know
coordinates
around
that,
but
it's
been
you
know.
Glenn
can
speak
for
the
school
district,
but
it's
been
their
intent
to
try
to
keep
truck
truck
traffic
on
one
road
and
vehicular
traffic
on
the
other
road.
So
that's
that's
where
we
are
at
this
point.
L
Nope
I,
don't
that's
fine
and
internet.
If
you
indulge
me,
can
I
ask
the
same
question
of
of
Dan
Berk
if
he's
available
or
somebody
from
the
open
space
staff
I
know,
Karen
Helwig
was
quite
gracious
in
deferring
to
staff.
L
So
I'm
gonna
pick
her
up
on
that
Dan
and
if
you
would
mind
answering
my
question,
my
early
question
about
just
as
Jay
and
and
sounds
like
Jay
and
and
kurd
said
that
they
would
be
probably
a
little
more
happy
with
65th
Street
than
63rd
Street,
because
63rd
Street
does
go
by
the
marsh.
Do
you
have
a
preference.
BD
Yeah
thanks
Bob
danberg,
director
of
the
open
space
and
Mountain
Parks,
so
our
city
staff
did
participate
in
offering
comments
and
during
the
development
review
process
to
other
City
staff,
and
yes,
the
some
of
the
traffic
flow
pattern
on
63rd
was
definitely
a
point
that
we
were
re-raced
that
we
would
like
to
see
addressed
in
some
form
or
fashion
and
mainly
Bob.
BD
It
was
around
a
potential
dust
that
may
be
produced
on
that
road
based
on
traffic
patterns,
I,
believe
at
the
time
that
the
staff
provided
input,
we
didn't
have
a
really
good
feel
for
what
the
traffic
patterns
would
be.
As
it
turns
out.
BD
The
traffic
patterns
are
going
to
be
fairly
light
during
the
operation
we
we
weren't,
considering
during
the
construction
of
the
facility
itself,
so
our
staff
didn't
weigh
in
on
the
first
year
of
sort
of
building
the
facility,
so
dust
accumulation
as
well
as
storm
water,
where
they
issues
around
the
63rd
Street
that
we've
raised
and
we
provided
such
possible
solutions
as
Paving
or
ensuring
storm
water
conditions
that
may
accumulate
from
from
the
road
be
be
mitigated.
So
those
were
our
our
concerns
around
63rd
Street.
BD
As
it
turns
out,
the
use
of
63rd
during
the
operations
itself
is
is
fairly
light,
so,
but
ideally
there
could
be.
There
could
be
improvements
to
63rd
Street.
That
probably
would
address
the
osmp
concerns,
but.
E
Thank
you,
I
just
have
a
question.
I
was
looking
at
I
was
hearing
some
of
the
comments
made
by
at
least
one
Community
member
about
the
environmental
study
and
I
saw
that
there's
an
environmental
assessment
on
page
21
of
of
the
slide
so
I'm
wondering.
Is
that
not
the
same
thing,
but
it
does
on
the
slide.
It
said
required
action,
so
it's
it's
not
yet
undertaken.
So
I'm
wondering
just
to
be
clear.
That
is
something
that
will
be
done.
K
Yes,
thanks
for
the
question,
so
yes,
that
was
actually
was
done
last
year,
so
it's
a
requirement
for
receiving
any
sort
of
federal
funding
and
it's
something
we
do
typically
very
early
in
any
sort
of
process.
So
the
the
environmental
impact
statement
that
phase
one
was
complete
and
has
been
approved
by
the
state.
E
This
particular
issue
tonight
and
I
hear
there
has
been
some
Community
engagement
done,
but
nonetheless,
my
question
to
you
is:
is
this
going
to
be
ongoing
and
continuous
and
also
how
much
weight
did
you
give
to
community
feedback.
K
Yeah
I
I
can
try
to
answer
that
as
best
I
can
you
know
we
have
heard
the
concerns
for
quite
some
time
and
it
was
taken
into
consideration
in
the
design
of
the
building.
For
example,
all
the
HVAC
equipment
is
on
the
north
side
of
the
building.
So
all
those
fans
that
that
what
will
make
noise
to
heat
and
cool
the
building
those
are
away
from
the
neighborhood.
K
We
have
tried
to
ensure
that
it
wouldn't
be
visual
clutter,
so
we
basically
said
we're
not
going
to
store
any
materials
on
the
outside
of
the
building.
Everything
is
done
inside
the
you
know.
Initially,
we
were
going
to
build
a
simple
metal
building,
but
I
think
we
wanted
to
respect
the
potential
impacts
of
the
noise
operations
on
the
marsh,
as
well
as
the
neighbors
and
that's
when
we
switched.
K
It
shifted
to
a
net
zero
approach,
so
I
and
I
would
just
say
in
terms
of
ongoing,
as
I've
said
before,
and
as
we've
communicated
with
the
neighbors,
we
do
want
to
be
a
good,
neighbor
and
I
think
the
school
district
has
really
stepped
up
too.
At
the
August
September
29th
meeting
Rob
Price
who's,
the
superintendent
game
of
operations.
He
came
to
the
meeting
and
you
know
he
basically
was
addressing
neighbor
concerns
that
they've
been
raising
honestly
for
years
about
backup,
alarms,
trash
pickup
during
very
early
hours
of
the
morning.
K
E
It
seemed
to
me
even
with
I,
mean
the
comment
made
by
Bob
and
if
we
decide
to
move
forward
with
this
particular
agreement
and
annexation,
it
seemed
the
rules
are
very,
very
restrictive,
or
at
least
the
way
I
read
it
of
what
bvsd
is
willing
to
do
and
not
willing
to
do.
Even
it
seemed
to
me,
I
mean
we're
talking
about
Improvement
to
traffic,
and
it
doesn't
seem
to
me,
based
on
my
reading.
Other
people
could
read
it
differently
that
there's
much
that
they're
willing
to
to
give
in
to
that.
So
I'm.
E
Just
very
surprised
by
that
as
well
to
me,
because
again
there
are
people
in
the
community
who
are
concerned
and
the
idea,
and
the
hope
would
be
that
they
would
be
willing
to
make
some
changes.
So
I'm
wondering
I'm
just
wondering.
E
At
least
how
how
does
the
city
intends
to
engage
that
process
in
a
way
that,
if
there
is
more
feedback
that
we
give
that
you
know,
bvsd
would
be
willing
to
I
suppose
take
on
those
feedback,
but
from
my
reading
they're
not
it
doesn't
seem
that
way.
E
Yes,
I
I
mentioned
I
feel
I
thought
that's
from
my
reading
of
the
attachment
K
that
bvsd
is
very
and
the
language.
It
seems
that
they're
they're,
not
in
any
required
District
Improvement
or
dedication
concerning
access
to
from
63
along
sombrero
they're
saying
that,
basically,
they
will
not
accept
certain
changes,
because
they've
already
looked
at
different
entrances
and
access.
E
So
if
they're
not
willing
to
take
on
at
least
I
want
to
know
what
will
the
city
do
in
in
a
in
their
engagement
with
BTSD
to
ensure
that
some
of
the
community
feedback
that
we're
given
that
they
will
take
them?
Knowing
that
in
this
document
they
are
saying
that
they're
not
necessarily
willing
to
take
any
more
feedback,
yeah.
AN
So
I
see
Glenn
popped
up
as
well,
and
I
want
to
invite
I
want
to
make
sure.
Glenn
has
an
opportunity
to
speak
to
this,
and
then
I
would
invite
hella
penawig
from
my
office
to
it
to
address
this
as
well
in
the
course
of
our
negotiations
and
what
further
negotiations
might
look
like.
B
So
Glenn,
if
you
want
to
your
an
opportunity,
you've
been
offered.
Okay.
AQ
Sure
I
can
take
a
shot
at
that
yeah
the
negotiations.
How
long
did
those
go
on
hello?
Do
you
know
a
year
from
when
we
started
at
least
so
you
know
the
one
of
the
major
considerations
the
school
district
had
was,
of
course,
our
sovereignty
under
State,
Powers
and
maintaining
our
those
powers
are
those
rights
that
have
been
granted
to
us
by
the
state
and
also
interruptions
to
the
operations
on
our
campus
so
again
coming
off
of
65th.
AQ
You
know
we
have
a
lot
of
families
accessing
that
we
have
a
lot
of
public.
One
of
the
reasons
we
rebuilt
the
Ed
Center
that
we
have
now
was
was
for
Public
Access,
because
our
old
building
was
very
poor
in
that
regard.
So
you
know
we
have
high
school
kids
coming
in
and
out
of
there
and
that's
why
we
generally
try
to
Route,
especially
during
Prime
hours
and
people
are
coming
to
and
from
the
sites
through
that
back
road.
AQ
So
that
is
I
can
say
that
that
is
a
major
consideration
of
ours.
It
doesn't
mean
that
we're
not
willing
to
talk
about
how
we
can
do
some
things
a
little
differently
and
tweak
it
so
that
we
can
minimize
those
impacts,
but
it
is
going
to
be
hard
to
open
up
that
65th
route
in
its
entirety
at
all
times.
Given
that
public
need
that
we
have
at
that
site.
AR
Yeah
I
can
I
can
speak
a
little
bit
about
the
negotiations
and
Juni
you're
correct.
You
read
those
comments
correctly.
The
negotiations
I
found
them
difficult
that
they
were
a
little
bit
different
than
in
other
annexation
agreements
that
we
typically
see
because
there
were
different
motivations
on
the
parties.
Typically,
when
we
have
an
annexing
applicant,
they
seek
additional
development
potential
under
CD
zoning
or
seek
city
services
like
water
and
sanitary
sewer.
AR
So
the
agreement
that
you
have
in
front
of
you
now
is
the
compromise
between
the
position
of
the
city
staff
and
the
district,
and
if,
if
you
would
like
to
see
additional
requirements
and
and
that
were
not
previously
addressed,
that
staff
may
have
proposed,
then
then
I
would
recommend
that
those
tried
to
be
incorporated
into
the
agreements.
E
It
does
thank
you
so
much
I
was
just
looking
at
the
language
and
the
annexation,
and
it
it
just
says
so
much
it's
so
restrictive
and
I.
Just
don't
see
how
Community
feedback
will
be
incorporated
in
the
future
because
of
the
language-
and
you
mentioned
okay-
do
how.
How
do
we
go
back
or
whether
there
is
an
opportunity
to
go
back
to
the
drawing
board
at
least
have
these
communications?
E
Again,
all
these
type
of
languages
are
restrictive,
even
though
at
the
end
it
says
that,
hopefully,
this
is
going
to
be
a
collaborative
effort
to
protect
public
health
safety
and
the
welfare
of
community
and
also
ensuring
the
mission
of
bvsd,
so
I
understand
that,
but
at
the
same
token
is
how
do
we
ensure
that
our
community
is,
if
we're
moving
forward
tonight,
that
at
least
community
is
heard
as
part
of
this
process?
B
We
can
address
that
in
in
our
discussions
right.
So
that's
and
I
will
note
that
the
attachment
K
from
bbsd
was
from
over
a
year
ago,
and
a
lot
of
negotiations
have
happened
since
then.
So
those
were
not
their
final
words
on
the
subject,
but
but
your
points
are
well
taken.
AN
And
and
I
guess
part
of
what
I
want
to
highlight
here
and
and
how
I
invite
you
to
to
contribute
and
Glenn
said
this:
bvsd
is
a
sovereign
state
entity,
and
so
they
don't
have
to
give
anything
right
and
so
so
we're
we're
coming
to
the
tables
as
as
equals
in
many
respects,
and
so
I
think
it's
important
context
to
think
about
when
we,
when
we
think
about
like
we
can
come
forward
with
our
community
desires
and
wants
and
concerns
and
and
our
list
of
wants,
and
we
also
have
to
understand
the
negotiating
position.
B
For
that
Teresa
I'm,
hoping
we're
done
with
questions
here
in
a
minute.
We
need
to
do
a
time
check
and
and
get
a
break
here.
But
if
we
have
a
couple
more
Sarah.
AJ
So
my
first
question
is
probably
for
Jay
Jay
how
come
there
were
some
very
interesting
comments
coming
from
the
neighborhoods
and
I'm
wondering
why
we
would
wait
to
have
that
acoustic
engineer
come
after
the
fact,
rather
than
now,
I
don't
I,
don't
know
that
I
understand
I,
guess
to
follow
that
up
with.
Let's
say
that
the
acoustic
engineer
comes
after
the
fact
that
says
wow.
This
is
loud,
then
what
happens?
AJ
Do
we
we
just
say
thanks
for
your
input,
or
do
we
have
a
plan
for
what
to
do
if
it's
too
loud
and
also
have
you
considered
trees
planted
to
absorb
some
of
the
sand
or
some
other
noise
mitigation
factors
like
that,
other
people
from
the
neighborhoods
have
mentioned
or
do
you
are
you
going
to
wait
to
see
if
there's
even
a
reason
to
do
that,
and
let's
say
that
we
find
out.
There
is
a
reason
to
do
some
noise
mitigation.
AJ
Is
that
gonna?
What
is
the
enforcement
mechanism,
or
do
we
just
say,
we'll,
try
our
best
so
I
guess
when
it
comes
to
noise
mitigation,
the
neighborhood
would
probably
feel
better
if
we
said
if
it.
If
there
is,
if
there
is
a
problem
with
noise,
we
are
going
to
do
something
about
it
and
then
my
last
question
is
is:
have
you
considered
not
opening
the
factory
on
Saturday?
K
Okay,
I
think
I
I
got
all
that
I
had
to
take
notes
so
back
to
the
acoustical
engineer.
K
D
K
Began
immediately
to
try
to
identify
acoustical
engineers,
we
have
unfortunately
they're
extremely
busy
right
now,
so
I've
only
received
one
proposal
and
I'm
waiting
on
the
second
proposal,
but
the
idea
is
that
we
would
have
that
study
done
before
we
finalized
the
design
of
the
building,
and
so
there
are
things
that
we
can
do
it.
You
know
and
I
think
the
neighbors
have
pointed
out.
K
A
metal
building
with
installation
doesn't
necessarily
equate
with
the
sound
barrier,
but
a
lot
of
it
depends
on
what
type
of
equipment
is
being
used
in
the
factory,
so
say
a
nail
gun,
probably
one
of
the
louder
things.
Theoretically,
we
could
switch
from
pneumatic
to
battery
operated,
which
would
be
significantly
quieter.
So
there
are
operational
things
that
are
designed
things
that
we
could
change
to
basically
understand
how
we
can
reduce
the
potential
noise
impacts.
K
The
the
trees
that
question
so
just
to
be
clear
trees
do
not
do
anything
for
noise,
but
it
is
visual
and
we
did
discuss
this
with
parks
and
open
space,
since
this
is
a
grassland.
Trees
aren't
necessarily
appropriate
on
the
grasslands,
but
bvsd
has
expressed
the
willingness
to
plant
trees
on
their
side
of
the
property
line
as
a
visual
barrier.
As
long
as
it
doesn't.
K
With
their
ongoing
operations,
so
we'll
continue
to
explore
that
and
then
the
enforcement.
So
basically
we
have
committed
to
following
both
city
and
county
noise
regulations.
K
So
and
others
can
talk
more
about
how
that
works,
but
the
you
know
basically,
we've
made
that
commitment
and
the
neighbors
will
be
able
to
call
us
on
it
and
then
finally,
not
opening
on
Saturday,
so
I
think
habitat
could
probably
better
answer.
This
question
but
Saturdays
is,
is
a
really
important
volunteer
day.
K
Of
course,
habitat
doesn't
work
out,
doesn't
have
operations
on
Sunday,
but
so
that's
why
it's
Tuesday
through
Saturday,
and
if
you
want
more
detail,
I'm
sure
Susan
would
be
more
than
happy
to
elaborate.
Does
that
answer
all
your
questions.
AJ
I
Thank
you,
I
just
had
two.
My
first
is,
and
maybe
this
was
in
the
packet
I
apologize.
It
was
a
big
packet.
This
week,
I
was
wondering
if
I
could
get
a
little
bit
more
detail
about
the
community,
engagement
and
Outreach.
That
was
done
specifically
for
the
Columbine
Mobile
Home
Park.
K
What's
up
Mom,
do
you
want
to
start
and
then
I
can
follow
because
there's
two
different
pieces,
we
did
notice
for
the
annexation
process,
but
then
housing
and
Human
Services
also
did
notice
for
the
in
a
separate
Community
engagement
for
the
modular
Factory.
AP
AO
K
But
I
can
talk
more
about
what
we
I
mean,
what
we
heard.
So
we
for
the
modular
Factory.
We
have
held
that
public
meeting
September
29th
at
the
bbdf
bvsd
campus.
We
did
send
out
notice.
We
did
beyond
the
600
minimum,
we
did
to
a
thousand
feet
of
the
property
and
that
did
include
every
resident
of
the
Columbine
Mobile
Home
Park
and
the
notice
did
include
the
in
Spanish
the
option
saying
that
translation
services
would
be
available
at
that
meeting.
K
K
Basically
Fielding
questions
concerns,
and
then
we
went
out
stop
with
the
residents
and
we
walked
to
where
the
factory
was
going
to
be
and
continue
to
talk
about
it.
So
we
did
get
quite
a
bit
of
feedback,
you've,
gotten
lots
of
emails
and,
like
I've
said,
we
have
made
an
effort
to
try
to
incorporate
as
much
as
we
can
there's
a
q,
a
in
your
packet
that
tries
to
respond
to
those
concerns
anyway.
Hopefully,
that
helps
give
you
a
flavor
for
what
was
done.
I
My
other
question
was
regarding
exciting.
You
mentioned
that
you
know,
because
there
are
converging
power
lines.
The
building
couldn't
be
moved
any
farther
north,
but
it
looks
like
they're
actually
is
a
fair
amount
of
space
between
the
easements
and
the
proposed
building,
and
it
could
be
slid
farther
north.
Just
based
on
that
single
constraint
and
so
I
was
wondering
what
other
constraints
might
have
come
in
to
play.
K
I
we
pushed
our
civil
designer
on
this
point
specifically,
but
it's
not
just
where
the
easement
is,
but
it's
also
a
step
back
from
that
easement.
So
we're
we're
Within
inches
actually
of
that
easement.
So
they're,
like
I,
said
there
isn't
really
an
option
to
move
it
any
farther
north.
B
All
right,
very
good,
great
questions
I,
probably
should
have
had
a
sticker
or
break
before
the
questions,
but
thanks
for
hanging
in
there
everybody.
So
we
also
need
to
do
a
time
check.
So
I
think
here's
what
I'm
going
to
propose.
We
should
at
least
delay
Bob
in
my
update
on
sister
city
visits
later
on,
Bob
Capri
said
that
the
I
think
the
couple
other
things
under
matters
are
probably
time
sensitive.
B
But
let's
see
how
long
our
discussion
takes
us
I
have
I
have
hopes
is
still
doing
the
Disposable
bag
feed,
but
it
will
depend
on
how
long
our
conversation
will
happen.
So
our
folks
do
we
want
to
try
to
get
disposable
bags
done
tonight
or
do
we
want
to
try
to
let
those
folks
go
home,
quick
comments,
Nicole.
H
I
was
thinking
yes,
I
was
just
going
to
offer
that
I
could
do
the
Dr
Cog
update
another
night
as
well,
and
that
might
let
our
transportation
staff
go
to
bed
before
we
keep
them
up
too
late.
If
we
decide
that.
AJ
I'm
fine
with
pushing
the
plastic
bag
or
back
to
a
different
day.
AH
Mostly
a
question
and
I'm
just
waiting,
I
think
for
Jonathan
to
get
promoted
because
I'm
asking
staff
if
there
is
any
kind
of
time,
sensitivity,
I'm,
not
aware
of
myself
but
I,
just
want
to
make
sure
that
that
there's
not
I'm
hearing
that
perhaps
it's
not
ideal.
But
as
long
as
we
get
it
done
this
year,
it
would
be
preferable.
So,
okay,.
B
AN
Excuse
me:
okay,
veronique
fan
game
from
my
Offices
here
and
would
definitely
understand
the
timeline
of
when
we
need
to
come
into
compliance.
AN
I
Yeah
we
wanted
to
get
this
started
by
an
effective
by
January
2023
and
we
really
need
to
communicate
to
the
businesses
beforehand
to
make
sure
that
there's
an
understanding
in
the
community
of
what
the
obligations
are.
I
B
G
B
I'm
gonna
say:
let's
try
to
keep
it
on
because
I,
because
the
time
sensitivity,
if
and
let's
see
how
our
discussions
go-
are
people
okay
with
that,
given
the
time
sensitivity
all
right,
I'm
seeing
on
his
heads,
let's
go
ahead:
let's
take
a
six
minute
break.
Let's
get
back
here
at
9
46
and
see
very
soon.
B
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
B
Q
B
If
there
are
people
who
are
listening
to
Spanish
tonight,
it
seems
like
it
might
be
helpful
for
them
to
hear
it
in
real
time.
Do
we
know
if
anyone's
currently
choosing
the
Spanish
option.
Q
B
B
Okay,
then
we'll
interpretation
services
are
done
for
the
evening,
thanks
very
much
to
Elena
for
doing
that
for
us
tonight.
Thank
you,
okay,
so
deliberation
time
so
I'm
hoping
we
can
be
efficient
in
our
discussions
and
what
I
would
like
to
start
off
is
by
saying.
Does
anyone
want
to
propose
any
amendments
to
the
ordinances
and
agreements
that
are
in
front
of
us
for
discussion
by
Council?
B
L
L
My
proposal
is
to
change
the
number
63
as
in
63rd
Street
to
65th,
as
in
65th
Street.
That's
the
only
amendment
I'm
proposing
I
heard
earlier
Glenn's
concerned
about
how
long
this
AGA
has
been
in
negotiation.
We
heard
that
a
few
weeks
ago,
when
this
Council
raised
the
concern
about
height
limit
and
we
were
told
it
could
never
be
done,
and
lo
and
behold
it
got
done
in
a
few
weeks,
which
was
great
and
I,
understand.
L
Glenn
may
or
may
not
have
authority
to
agree
this
change
tonight
and
that's
fine
if
he
needs
to
go
back
and
check
with
the
superintendent
or
with
the
school
board.
That's
fine.
We
can
park
this,
but
that's
the
change
that
that
would
re
that
would
be
required
to
earn
my
vote
to
approve
this
I
would
not
approve
this
with
the
63rd
Street
access.
There's
one
or
two
small
trucks
a
week,
one
or
two
big
trucks
per
month.
L
I'm
very
concerned
about
the
impact
on
open
space
as
the
open
space
board
and
the
open
space
director
indicated
and
I'm
concerned
about
the
mobile
home
park
to
the
West
Columbine
Mobile,
Home,
Park
and
65th
Street
is
like
a
quarter
of
the
distance,
the
63rd
Street
transverses,
so
I
I
get
Glenn's
concerned
that
we
have
car
traffic
for
the
high
school
and
the
bbsd
employees.
It
seems
to
me
with
one
or
two
deliveries
per
week.
L
Something
can
be
worked
out
as
far
as
deliveries
at
seven
or
eight
o'clock
in
the
morning
or
or
other
times
a
day.
It
seems
to
me
this
is
not
an
insurmountable
problem
and
the
impacts
on
open
space
and
the
impacts
on
the
mobile
home
park
are
are
potentially
significant,
and
so
that
would
be
the
amendment
that
I
would
propose
in
the
amendment
that
would
be
required
in
order.
For
me
to
support
this
entire
package.
B
L
Bob
sorry
2B
2B
12g
and
for
for
those
who
are
following
along
that's
on
page
58,
our
packet
of
the
memo
packet,
the
IGA
and
it's
two
or
three
pages
into
the
IGA
and
it's
2B
12g,
changing
63rd
Street
to
65th,
Street
and
I.
Think
I'm
not
trying
to
play
a
lawyer
here,
maybe
Ella
or
Teresa
could
tell
me
if
there's
other
changes
are
necessary,
but
as
far
as
I
could
tell,
that
would
be
the
only
change
necessary
to
affect
the
Ingress
and
egress
in
and
out
on
65th
rather
than
63rd.
L
L
So
in
2b12g
it
reads
currently
deliveries
all
materials
in
Supply
deliveries
to
and
from
the
factory
along
with
trucks
used
to
deliver,
completed,
units
off-site,
shall
Ingress
and
egress
off
of
63rd
Street.
B
Very
good,
so
maybe
I
could
just
check
in
with
Council
it's
a
it's
a
it's
a
concise
proposal,
checking
with
Council
to
see
how
many
people
would
be
interested
in
pursuing
this
amendment.
Just
do
a
show
of
hands
here.
We
got
that
looks
unanimous
I
believe
so.
It
looks
like
we're
all
interested
in
that,
so
rather
Bob
I
think
I
thought
you
summarized
the
issues
at
hand.
B
AR
Yeah,
it's
it's
a
negotiation,
it's
a
contract,
so
you
can
certainly
make
that
proposal
and
yeah
I
would
recommend
that
you
check
in
with
Glenn
and,
as
you
pointed
out,
Bob,
the
IGA
does
have
to
be
approved
by
the
school
board
and,
and
it
has
not
yet
the
annexation
agreement
has
been
approved
by
them.
B
Thanks
Hela
and
so
Glenn
we're
going
to
put
you
on
the
spot
here
to
to
ask
you
know
what
what
next
steps
would
be
to
considering
that
proposed
amendment
on
our
part.
AQ
Well,
the
formal
steps
would
be
to
yeah
first
start
with
staff
and
and
talk
with
them
and
and
then
ultimately,
yeah
I
think
amendments
would
have
to
get
by
the
school
board
for
ultimate
approval.
AQ
They
are
the
final
Authority
on
on
that
I
do
have
to
say
that
access
on
65th
was
one
of
the
big
issues
for
the
school
district.
Early
on
and
consistently
the
school
district
has
held,
that
we
can't
have
that
Interruption
to
our
operations.
We
are
willing
to
commit
Ron,
I,
shouldn't,
say
not
willing
to
commit,
but
we're
willing
to
look
at
it
operationally.
I
think
there
are
things
you
can
do,
I
think.
AQ
As
you
suggested
off
hours
Saturdays,
we
may
be
able
to
come
to
some
agreements
on
that
at
an
operational
level,
but
I
think
in
terms
of
having
something
in
black
and
white
that
we
have
to
do.
AQ
B
Thanks
and
I'll
just
respond,
then
I'll
call
on
Jeannie
so
appreciate
that
explanation.
But
you
know
there
could
be
a
discussion
of
of
operational
aspects
to
that.
65Th,
Street
access
so
but
I
think
we
are
very
interested
in
it.
So
junior
then
Lauren.
E
Thank
you,
I,
just
kind
of
lost
where
I
am
because
again,
this
document
is
so
big
and
I
was
looking
at
it
as
far
as
the
traffic
in
the
area,
and
maybe
what
I
wanted
to
know
as
well,
which
I'm
not
sure
I
saw
in
the
packet
or
maybe
I
did
and
missed
it
as
well,
is
what
are
some
of
the
drawbacks,
meaning
between
63rd
and
65th
and
I'm.
Looking
at
it
on
the
map
as
well,
meaning
what
would
be
some
of
the
challenges
and
do
you
think
those
challenges
could
be
over?
E
Came
we
overcome
them
and,
yes,
I
think
we
have
to
look
at
every
Avenue,
whether
it's
weekend
hours
in
the
evening
again,
I
think
community
members
have
concerns
and
I
want
to
know
more
about
this,
and
also
we
did
hear
a
lot
of
community
tonight
and
yeah
I.
Think
part
of
it
involved
engaging
more
people
as
well
I
think
as
part
of
this
process
to
ensure
that
we're
not
only
hearing
from
one
voice
in
one
community.
I
Thank
you,
I
just
wanted
to
kind
of
share
two
thoughts
on
this
I'm
I
understand
the
concern
with
having
more
impact
on
a
egress
and
Ingress-
that's
already
highly
utilized,
but
if
this
site
didn't
have
access
to
63rd
I,
don't
think
this
is
a
conversation.
You
know
we
wouldn't
I
doubt
that
there
would
be
a
question
of
whether
or
not
this
project
gets
built
just
because
it
only
has
access
from
65th.
I
You
know
people
build
bigger
things
and
Tighter
more
complicated
areas
all
the
time,
but
I
understand
that
the
school
district
has
its
own
needs
and
desires.
Dan
did
mention
that
you
know.
Osmp's
requirements
were
to
upgrade
63rd
Street
and
wow.
I
think
that
I
would
prefer
to
see
65th
utilized
if
the
upgrades
were
made
to
63rd
to
pave
it
and
provide
the
storm
sewer.
All
that
to
make
it
meet,
City
standards,
I
would
be
I
would
find
that
an
acceptable
solution
as
well.
B
Okay,
thanks
for
that
Lauren,
so
are
there
any
other
modifications
that
people
would
like
to
see.
B
All
right,
I'm,
not
seeing
any
so
I,
think
what
we
have
in
front
of
us
is
a
proposal
then
to
I
think
what
we
would
do
would
be
to
continue
this
item
and
send
a
request
to
the
school
district
and
the
school
board
to
take
access
off
of
65th
Street
instead
per
Bob's
requested
Amendment
and
I'll
wait
to
hear
back
from
them
in
terms
of
the
acceptability
of
that
proposal
and
I
guess
we
would
have
our
negotiation
team
participate
in
this
discussions.
AN
Yeah
happy
to
Mayor
so
I,
typically
under
Robert's
Rules,
you
would
continue
to
a
date
certain
and
so
I
I
invite
Council
to
to
think
about
a
motion
to
continue
to
a
date.
Certain
on
this
item.
B
Would
maybe
the
second
business
meeting
in
December?
Would
that
perhaps
be
the
time
to
do
that
to
give
enough
time
for
a
back
and
forth
to
be
considered.
AH
Apologize
mayor,
I,
I
guess
I
was
waiting
to
see
what
the
I
don't
know.
What
the
calendar
of
the
school
board
is
right
and
just
to
see.
If
that
seems
like
it
would
be
timely
but
again
to
Teresa's
point.
We
can
certainly
come
back
at
that
day
and
say:
we've
either
come
back
or
not
or
we've
been
able
to
negotiate
or
not.
We
have
to
move
for
another
one,
so
that's
can
certainly
be
a
a
pin
for
an
update
but
I.
AH
B
Yeah
I
just
looks
like
the
next
meeting
is
December
13th
yeah.
AQ
It
is
yeah,
it's
typically
second
or
yeah,
the
second
and
fourth
Tuesdays,
but
I
I,
don't
think
we're
meeting
on
the
27th
I.
E
Just
a
point
of
clarification,
thank
you,
so
much
I
think
there's
more
than
one
proposal
actually
on
the
floor.
Sorry
I,
don't
know.
What's
going
on
outside
Lauren's
proposal
was
also
if
the
school
district
was
willing
to
make
some
modification
and
I
won't
I,
don't
want
to
speak
for
her,
but
that
was
one
proposal
that
she
brought
forward
as
well.
So
if
ultimately,
the
the
the
school
district
is
not
willing
to
go
with
Bob's
proposal
is
Lauren's
proposal,
a
proposal
that
they
would
be
willing
to
go
with.
B
Lauren,
were
you
putting
that
forward
as
I
have
an
alternate
point
of
negotiations.
J
Matt,
since
we're
throwing
out
what
are
the
desirable
options,
I
I
think
the
lowest
for
me
is:
is
63rd,
so
I'm
going
to
stick
with
where
Bob's
at
but
but
for
a
place
of,
perhaps
middle
is
repurposing
the
inlet
on
the
west
side
of
the
education
center
East
side
of
charm.
That
just
runs
a
straight
shot
at
parallel
65th,
but
when
you
look
at
it
is,
is
low
traffic,
low
impact
on
parking
and
really
subverts
the
impacts
on
Columbine
subverts
the
impacts
over
on
Sombrero
Marsh.
J
So
if
somehow
65th
is
just
Untouchable,
I
would
really
prefer
another
on-site
mechanism
for
Ingress
egress
that
still
does
not
touch
63rd
I,
think
that
is
the
least
desirable
option
here.
It
is
concerning
that
the
site
is
deferring
its
impacts
onto
our
housing
and
our
open
space
and
not
taking
the
impacts
internally
to
itself
so
I
think
that's
the
most
appropriate
or
is
one
of
those
two
options.
J
B
So
that's
that's
a
possible
alternative
there.
So
what
here's?
What
I
might
propose
is
to
say
that
I
think
we
have
a
strong
interest
in
seeing
the
access
taken
at
65th
Street,
and
maybe
there
is
a
willingness
to
talk
about
operating
characteristics
of
that.
Maybe
maybe
we
don't
put
trucks
through
there,
for
example,
on
exactly
the
time
that
people
are
arriving
in
the
morning.
You
know
that
that
might
be
one.
You
know
concession
or
something
like
that.
B
B
Getting
like
two
subtly
nodding
heads
yeah
I
mean
you
know
we're
sending
feedback
back
for
to
for
things
to
be
negotiated
on
right.
So
this
is
not
a
motion
per
se
right,
so
we
we
don't
have
to
make
a
motion
on
the
exact
thing,
but
if
people
want
to
add
additional
things,
they'd
like
to
see
included
in
the
negotiations-
maybe
speak
now,
but
I'm
gonna,
I'm
gonna,
leave
that
there
for
now,
as
a
potential
summary
on
the
other
hands.
AN
B
Okay
and
then,
since
we
could
recontinue
this
at
any
time,
I'm
going
to
suggest
that
we
continue
to
December
15th,
which
does
give
the
school
board
time
to
me
and
if
they
need
additional
time,
we
can
defer
it
further.
But
let's,
let's
plant
that
flag-
and
hopefully
our
negotiations
can
be
successful
by
them.
AO
B
Very
good,
all
in
favor
show
of
hands
for
continuation.
That's
unanimous!
There!
We
go
okay,
well,
Glenn!
Thank
you
for
sticking
it
out
with
us
and
well,
of
course,
we're
not
100
in
agreement
right
this
minute.
We
continue
to
Value
the
collaboration
between
our
organizations
and
hopefully
our
our
teams
can
get
down
and
resolve
this
last
point,
and
we
can
bring
this
to
successful
conclusion
thanks
very
much.
Thank
you.
B
AH
I
think
oh,
did
you
need
to
say
something
in
the
show
Alicia.
C
Yeah
just
need
to
read
it
into
the
record.
Yep
next
item
is
item
5B
on
tonight's
agenda.
Under
the
public
hearings,
it's
the
second
reading
and
consideration
of
emotion
to
adopt
ordinance,
8559,
I'm,
ending
section
3-2-6
exempt
property
and
services
and
chapter
6-15
disposable
bag
fee
BRC
1981,
exempting
the
Disposable
bag
fee
from
the
city's
sales
and
use
tax
and
aligning
the
carryout
bag
fee
with
Colorado
law
and
setting
forth
related
details.
BE
Thank
you,
neria
Alicia,
you're,
so
good
at
that
good
evening,
mayor
council,
I'm,
Jonathan
Cohen
with
climate
initiatives.
So
given
the
late
hour,
I'm
gonna
give
a
really
brief
intro
and
then
do
a
quick
handoff
to
Jamie
Harkins
who's
going
to
give
in
who's
going
to
give
tonight's
presentation.
BE
I
did
think
that
it
might
be
useful
for
those
watching
at
home
to
give
a
bit
of
a
high
level
overview
of.
Why
we're?
Here,
though,
we
don't
plan
on
going
through
all
the
details.
We
did
with
Council
when
we
first
discussed
this
item
with
you
all
on
August
18th.
So
really
at
a
high
level,
we've
been
discussing
the
necessity
of
of
updating
our
City's
disposable
bag
fee
to
be
compliant
with
the
recently
passed
plastic
pollution
reduction
act.
BE
So
you
might
recall,
the
Colorado
Colorado
legislature
recently
adopted
the
bill
for
the
purpose
of
reducing
single-use
plastic
pollution
in
the
state
of
Colorado.
So
the
new
law
has
four
main
components
which
Jamie
is
going
to
talk
about
in
more
detail,
but
tonight's
ordinance
and
hearing
deals
specifically
with
the
first
provision
of
the
bill,
which
sets
a
10
cent
bag
fee
at
large
retail
stores,
Statewide,
which
takes
effect
January
1st
of
next
year,
and
that's
why
we
were
a
little
bit
urgent
about
trying
to
get
this
done
tonight.
BE
So
the
second
reading
of
the
ordinance
that's
necessary
to
bring
our
code
into
alignment
with
the
applicant
upcoming
state
law,
really
relates
to
the
Disposable
bag
portion.
So
Jamie's
going
to
walk
through
staff's
proposed
language
changes
that
were
shaped
by
Council
feedback
at
your
August
18th
meeting
and
and
lastly,
I
just
wanted
to
mention
that
there
was
a
lot
of
interest
from
a
few
council
members
in
August
to
talk
about
the
broader
issue
of
single-use
plastics
and
I
just
wanted
to
assure
counsel
and
the
community.
BE
BF
Hey,
can
you
confirm
that
you're
seeing
my
slide
all
right?
Thank
you
so
much
all
right!
Thank
you!
Jonathan
and
good
evening,
mayor
and
Council,
okay.
BE
Jim
I
just
want
to
mention
that
you're
yeah
I
think
your
note
slides
are
on.
BF
BF
All
right,
please
interrupt
me
if
it
switches
again
all
right.
So
as
Jonathan
mentioned.
This
item
is
the
second
reading
of
the
proposed
ordinance
8559,
which
makes
changes
to
the
Disposable
bag
fee
to
align
it
with
the
state's
plastic
pollution
reduction
Act.
BF
And
then
to
provide
another
overview,
I
know
we
talked
about
it.
August
feels
like
a
long
time.
You
know
since
then,
but
the
state's
plastic
pollution
reduction
act
or
the
ppra
was
adopted
in
2021
and
as
Jonathan
mentioned,
it
does
have
four
Provisions.
The
first
to
take
effect
is
this
Statewide
bag
fee
and
it
begins
January
1st
2023.
BF
the
fee
is
a
policy
floor
or
a
minimum
and
cities
May
impose
bag
fees
in
a
broader
way
or
at
a
higher
level.
If
they
choose
to
do
so,
the
amount
is
the
amount
of
the
fee,
and
the
split
in
the
state
law
is
exactly
the
same
as
Boulders
current
bag
fee
program.
The
main
difference
which
we
talked
about
previously
is
this
small
store
exemption,
that
is
in
the
plastic
pollution
reduction
Act,
and
this
exemption
is
really
more
of
an
independently
owned
store
exemption.
BF
In
order
to
qualify,
a
store
has
to
meet
all
three
of
these
criteria
to
be
exempt,
so
they
have
to
operate
solely
in
Colorado,
have
three
or
fewer
locations,
and
they
cannot
be
a
part
of
a
franchise
or
Corporation
or
partnership
that
has
a
physical
location
outside
of
Colorado.
So
if
they
meet
all
three
of
those
they
they
qual,
they
fall
into
that
definition
in
the
state
as
a
small
store.
So
the
example
I
gave
at
your
August
18th
meeting
for
why
this
exemption
is
complicated.
BF
Is
that
a
store
like
McGuckin's
Hardware,
which
is
a
larger
store
that
appears
to
meet
this?
These
criteria
would
be
exempt
while
smaller
stores
like
Pharmaca,
are
part
of
a
larger
Corporation
and
would
not
be
exempt,
even
though
they
use
fewer
bags.
The
this
exemption
just
introduces
a
lot
of
inconsistency
and
confusion
among
consumers,
about
where
they'll
encounter
a
bag
fee
and
where
they
will
not.
BF
A
BF
So,
as
I
said,
this
inconsistency
is
why
we're
coming
back
this
evening
and
at
your
August
18th,
meaning
Council,
supported
the
staff
recommendation
to
align
the
two
policies
by
adding
all
of
these
large
stores
covered
by
the
state
law
into
our
bag
fee
program
on
January
1st
2023,
since
that
is
what
is
required
by
state
law.
They
have
to
do
that
regardless
and
then
to
trans
transition,
our
fee
to
Citywide,
covering
all
stores
at
a
later
date
to
allow
for
more
implementation
time.
BF
So
tonight,
you're
considering
proposed
ordinance
8559,
which
would
accomplish
this
goal.
I'll
review
at
a
high
level
the
changes
that
we're
making
in
this
ordinance.
So
first
up
it
amends
chapter
326
clarifying
that
the
whole
disposable
bag
fee
is
exempt
from
sales
tax.
This
is
just
a
clarification:
it's
not
a
change
to
anything
that
we've
been
doing
and
the
rest
of
the
ordinance
amends
chapter
615,
and
it
includes
updates
and
additions
to
the
definitions.
That's
probably
the
meatiest
of
the
Amendments.
BF
You
see
in
the
ordinance
in
order
to
align
all
of
our
definitions
with
the
ppra
and
then
a
reference
to
the
state's
single-use
plastic
bag
ban
was
added
to
our
ordinance,
and
this
was
because
we
wanted
to
clarify
the
intent
of
our
fee
after
that
January
2024
date
as
class,
some
plastic
bags
at
the
large
stores
are
phased
out.
We
wanted
to
explain
you
know
that
they
should
keep
collecting
the
Fiona
their
bags,
so
we
did
add
that
reference.
BF
The
proposed
ordinance
also
amends
the
allowed
uses
of
the
fee
Revenue
remitted
to
the
city,
since
the
ppra
does
allow
broader
uses
of
that
Revenue
than
we
had
in
our
code.
It
does
allow
it's
still
waste
reduction,
but
it
does
allow
us
to
use
it
for
General
waste
reduction,
education
and
programs,
and
then
finally,
the
ordinance
amends
what
I
talked
about
earlier.
The
applicable
stores
to
reflect
that
stores
who
are
not
small
stores
should
begin.
It's
very
confusing.
BF
This
ordinance
I
want
to
recognize
that
for
y'all,
and
so
any
stores
that
are
not
small
stores
should
begin
collecting
the
bag
fee,
January,
1st
2023.
BF
BF
It
also
was
a
date
that
our
finance
department
suggested
in
that
it
aligns
with
the
business
renewal
business,
license
renewal
process,
so
we'll
just
make
all
of
our
lives
on
the
city
side
a
little
easier
with
communicating
with
businesses,
because
this
is
a
lot
of
stores.
You
know
I
think
we
estimated
it
somewhere
up
to
a
thousand.
So
by
aligning
those
dates,
it
makes
the
process
a
lot
more
streamlined
to
bring
them
into
the
program.
BF
BF
So
I
also
wanted
to
quickly
highlight
a
few
things
that
we
discussed
on
August
18th
that
have
not
changed
in
this
proposed
ordinance.
The
60
40
split
between
the
city
and
the
stores
does
remain
the
same
in
this
ordinance
really
in
recognition
of
the
positive
benefits
bag
fee
Revenue
can
have
in
our
community
compared
to
being
retained
by
mostly
large
corporations.
The
majority
of
the
bag
fee
is
kept
by.
BF
You
know
very
large,
larger
stores,
and
so
we
did
think
there
was
more
of
a
community
benefit
to
having
that
money
come
into
the
City
and
spent
on
the
community,
and
then
the
fee
level
also
remains
at
10
cents.
In
this
ordinance,
staff
was
asked
by
Council
to
look
at
the
prevalence
of
bag
fees
at
levels
higher
than
10
cents,
as
well
as
in
an
ideal
level.
If
you
will
for
a
bag
fee
to
impact
Behavior,
so
I
did
some
research
and
what
is
available
out.
BF
There
really
shows
that
most
back
fees
around
the
globe
are
at
that
10
cent
or
lower
level,
and
that
those
levels
do
show
very
significant
reductions
in
bad
use.
So
it's
just
very
clear
that
the
fee
level
alone
is
not
the
only
factor
that
impacts,
consumer
decisions
and
another
factor
that
came
up
in
this
research
was
the
stalience
of
a
tax
or
a
fee.
BF
Excuse
me,
and
that
means
how
visible
or
transparent
a
tax
or
a
fee
is,
is
to
the
consumer
when
they're,
making
those
decisions
and
staff
feels
that
the
prevalence
of
this
fee
now
becoming
Statewide
rather
than
just
a
handful
of
our
communities,
along
with
the
education
efforts
that
I
know.
So
many
cities
are
about
to
embark
on
because
we
are
trying
to
coordinate
those
efforts
and
get
consistent
messaging
out
there.
So
all
of
that,
together,
we
do
feel
greatly
increased
the
salience
of
this
fee
and
really
further
reduce
bag
usage.
BF
And
so
because
of
those
reasons
we
are
leaving
the
feed
proposing
to
leave
it
at
10
cents,
and
we
did
put
in
the
memo,
though,
that
staff
will
look
at
this
annually,
we'll
evaluate
how
the
fee
is
going
and
see
how
the
pro
is
progressing
and
if
we
deem
it
appropriate,
we
may
propose
future
fee
increases
as
part
of
your
Annual
fees
ordinance
as
part
of
the
budget
cycle.
So
you
would
see
that
and
consider
that
in
future
years.
BF
Finally,
I
did
want
to
provide
some
additional
information
related
to
the
implementation
costs
for
the
smaller
stores.
I
did
talk
to
a
few
store
owners
who
expressed
that
there
would
be
little
to
no
cost
to
add
the
bag
fee
into
their
system,
the
actual
nuts
and
bolts
of
collecting
and
in
their
computers.
They
said
the
only
real
cost
they
could
see
is
the
additional
administrative
costs,
of
course,
for
their
accountant
to
track
and
remit
the
fee
to
the
city.
BF
The
retained
portion
of
the
bag
fee
was
all
always
designed
to
provide
an
offset
to
this
cost,
and
I
did
look
at
recent
Revenue
we've
gotten
in
by
store
and
took
a
look
at
what
stores
are
retaining
out
of
the
the
group
of
smaller
food
stores
that
we
have
in
the
fee
program
right
now
and
I
would
say
based
on
their
size.
BF
It
varies
greatly,
but
they
are
retaining
anywhere
from
at
the
very
low
end,
twenty
dollars
a
quarter
up
to
about
six
hundred
dollars,
a
quarter
that
smaller
store
size,
and
so
really
it
depends
how
many,
obviously,
how
big
their
bags
are,
how
many
they
use,
but
that
that
retained
portion
is
meant
to
offset
that
administrative
cost
and
I
did
put
in
here
on
the
slide,
a
picture
of
our
sample
return
form
just
so
you
can
see
it's
very,
very
simple:
we
don't
ask
them
to
track
plastic
versus
paper,
it's
just
gross
number
of
bags
and
there's
no
other
tracking
necessary.
BF
And
finally,
we
are
very
open
to
using
existing
bag
fee
Revenue
that
we
have,
in
our
account
to
provide
additional
support
next
year,
with
any
other
costs
that
arise
with
training.
Anything
that
you
know,
we
could
do
small
grants
some
way
to
really,
in
addition
to
our
advisors,
really
help
offset
any
any
implementation
costs
that
arise.
A
BF
To
communicate
the
back
fee
changes
to
businesses,
which
will
include
updated
science,
training,
materials
and
other
resources,
we
are
getting
them
all
loaded
up
on
the
dedicated
web
page,
we'll
also
be
continuing
to
distribute
reusable
bags
through
our
partners
and
to
the
community,
as
well
as
educating
the
community
about
the
bag
fee
and,
of
course,
those
additional
provisions
of
the
ppra
that
take
effect
in
2024.,
we'll
also
be
exploring
the
financial
assistance
I
just
mentioned,
as
well
as
bag
lending
programs
and
other
incentives.
BF
That
Council
was
interested
in
at
our
office
at
your
August
18th
meeting.
So
I
do
have
motion
language
here,
but
of
course
we
are
here
in
veronique
Van
game.
Who
is
the
City
attorney
then
worked
on?
This
with
me
is
here
to
answer
any
specific
questions
you
have
about
ordinance,
language
or
the
program
or
anything
else,
so
I
will
stop
sharing
for
now.
B
AN
So
I'm
very
happy
to
introduce
Council
to
veronique
Van
geem
in
my
office.
It's
her
first
time
before
Council.
She
has
done
an
excellent
job,
advising
climate
initiatives
all
around
and
particularly
on
this
backfeed
ordinance
and
so
I.
Just
I
want
you
to
welcome
her
and
you
know
I
tell
you
to
take
it
easy,
but
she
listen.
She
can
stand
Toe
to
Toe
with
you
so
there
we.
B
Veronique
we're
so
glad
to
have
you
welcome
to
the
team
and
welcome
to
your
first
council
meeting
I
wish.
I
could
tell
you.
This
will
be
the
last
time
that
you'll
be
in
a
council
meeting
after
10
o'clock
at
night,
but
I
cannot
promise
that.
So,
hopefully
you
don't
mind
too
much
great,
so
questions
for
City
staff.
Before
we
go
to
the
public
hearing,
we've
got
Matt.
J
Yeah
thanks
Aaron
and
veronique
welcome
yeah,
it's
a
good
way
to
get
indoctrinated
into
the
business
by
having
a
late
meeting
sort
of
par
for
the
course.
My
my
question
centers
around
and
Jamie
you
mentioned
a
few
different
numbers
for
stores
and
I
was
trying
to
parse
out
which
one
so
I'll
try
to
make.
How
many
stores
do
you
estimate
would
be
considered
exempt,
and
so
how
many
are
we
actually
folding
in
to
this
new
ordinance
that
would
otherwise
be
sort
of
in
that
exempt
stage
you
mentioned
mcguckins.
BF
Yes,
I'm
just
looking
to
see
my
last
packet,
I
I,
think
I.
Remember
it
really.
This
estimate,
council
member
is
based
on
me,
coming
through
a
spreadsheet
and
what
I
know
about
stores
in
Boulder
or
not,
and
we
think
about
100
to
150
have
to
start
January
1st
in
the
state
law,
and
we
do
think
the
remaining
stores
we
would
be
bringing
in
are
anywhere
from
like
800
to
like
900,
smaller
stores.
J
B
All
right,
I
am
seeing
no
one
else
with
their
hands
up,
in
which
case
we
can
go
to
the
public
hearing
and
I.
Think
we've
had
our
decorum
rules
twice
today.
So
probably
don't
need
to
do
that
again
and
so
I'm,
just
bringing
up
the
the
list
of
people
who
are
signed
up.
B
Got
it,
we've
got
three,
so
we
have
Lynn
Siegel,
Maxwell,
Gulliver
and
Ryan
call.
Everyone
will
have
three
minutes
to
speak.
We
can
get
started
with
Lynn.
U
U
This
is
not
off
topic:
770
Circle
and
a
state
of
8
000
square
feet
was
approved
for
demolition,
with
the
landmark's
design.
Review
Committee
built
up
Flagstone
fireproof
on
the
open
space
at
Baseline
and
Flagstaff,
just
north
and
just
east
of
that
intersection
adjacent
to
two
other
historic
homes.
So
there's
also
the
about
that's
off
topic
a
little
bit
two
other
historic
homes
that
are
very
related
to
it
intimately,
and
this
was
demolished
without
any
oversight
with
an
unrecorded
ldrc.
U
It
cannot
be.
The
landmarks
board
has
authority
over
the
city
council
and
it
never
went
to
Jonathan
Cohen
or
Jamie
Harkins
or
anyone
with
sustainability.
This
house
is
being
demolished,
it's
obscene
that
Boulder
is
allowing
something
like
that
and
that's
a
whole
hell
of
a
lot
more
than
a
bunch
of
plastic
bags
at
10
cents,
a
bag.
U
So
that's
where
you
need
to
have
your
eye
on
the
pie
for
carbon
footprint
right
carbon
footprint.
Let's,
let's
expand
our
view.
A
little
bit
plastic
bags
or
Flagstone
a
flagstone
Fortress
being
carried
off
into
the
landfill
all
of
the
truck
trips
that
that's
going
to
take
and
building
a
new
house
for
someone
who
from
England
who
bought
it
as
a
second
home
they're,
going
to
demo
it
and
build
a
second
home
stunning.
U
U
BG
BG
I'm
also
speaking
to
you
tonight
as
an
ecocycle
Community
Eco
leader
I've
worked
in
many
sectors,
including
restaurants,
Agriculture
and
Retail,
and
I
have
both
bachelor's
and
master's
degree
from
CU
Boulder
I
care
deeply
about
the
city
of
Boulder
and
the
communities
and
ecosystems
within
this
issue
is
important
to
me
personally,
because
I
always
hope
to
help
my
hometown
to
maintain
its
beauty
and
to
improve
the
quality
of
life
for
current
residents
as
well
as
future.
Generations
Fuller
has
already
enacted
a
plastic
bag
fee
since
2012,
which
is
now
10
years.
BG
There's
no
reason
we
shouldn't
be
forging
ahead
to
continue
being
a
leader
in
the
state
when
it
comes
to
Plastics,
like
regulation
and
legislation.
We
simply
cannot
do
enough
too
early
best
time
to
act
was
yesterday.
The
second
best
is
today,
especially
when
it
comes
to
materials
like
Plastics,
which
will
long
outlive
any
and
all
of
us.
BG
Now
more
than
ever,
we
have
to
implement
systemic
change
to
turn
off
the
faucet
and
the
stem.
The
flow
of
plastic
conduct
consumption.
This
blush,
especially
of
unnecessarily
unnecessary
plastic
items
like
single-use
bags.
These
items
are
just
used
for
a
few
minutes
and
then
contaminate
our
water,
soil
and
food.
For
decades.
We
cannot
wait.
The
plastic
pollution
crisis
is
only
getting
worse.
Plastic
production
is
predicted
to
quadruple
in
the
next
30
Years,
which,
if
that
continues,
we
will
have
more
Plastics
in
the
Ocean
than
fish
by
weight.
BG
I
hope
to
one
day
show
my
children,
the
beauty
of
my
hometown
of
Boulder
Colorado,
and
proudly
point
out
that
when
it
was
most
crucial,
we
chose
to
go
beyond
simply
keeping
up
with
Statewide
standards
and
instead
lead
the
way
in
striving
towards
a
cleaner
and
brighter
future.
Please
vote
Yes
on
this
ordinance.
8559,
nothing
we
use.
One
should
pollute
our
community
for
hundreds
of
years.
BH
All
right
can
you
all
hear
me
all
right,
yes,
great
good
evening,
city
council,
my
name
is
Ryan
Carl
and
I
have
the
privilege
of
representing
Eco
cycle
tonight.
Eco
cycle
strongly
supports
ordinance
8559,
which
will
create
a
more
consistent
bag
fee
across
Boulder
every
day.
My
colleagues
and
I
abdicate
for
the
reduction
of
single-use
plastics.
BH
The
best
way
to
address
the
plastic
pollution
crisis
is
by
reducing
Plastics
in
the
first
place.
Expanding
Boulder's
bag
feed
to
include
all
businesses
creates
an
incentive
to
skip
plastic
bags.
City-Wide
now
I
could
spend
all
night
talking
about
the
issues
with
single-use
plastics
and
why
we
should
reduce
them.
That'll
sum
them
up
in
just
a
few
words:
litter
microplastics
fossil
fuels,
toxic
chemicals,
plastic
waste
is
a
systemic
issue
and
ordinance.
8559
is
a
systemic
solution.
BH
BH
The
city
of
Boulder
is
unquestionably
a
leader
in
zero
waste
efforts
and
once
again
has
an
opportunity
to
be
a
model
for
communities
across
Colorado
that
want
to
reduce
single-use
Plastics.
When
the
10
cent
fee
was
first
passed
in
2012,
the
city
saw
a
68
reduction
in
the
use
of
plastic
bags
by
passing
ordinance
8559.
How
many
more
single-use
plastic
bags
can
the
city
of
Boulder
reduce
I,
wish
you
all
a
Happy
Colorado
recycles
week,
and
you
know
who
to
call
if
you
have
any
questions
about
waste
related
issues.
B
J
Not
from
a
lack
of
being
late,
but
this
is
awesome.
This
is
this
is
the
right
thing
to
do.
It
was
well
thought
to
close
the
loophole
and
bring
us
all
into
some
level
of
consistency
and
to
stay
true
with
our
values,
on
our
climate
goals
and
and
trying
to
reduce
plastic
waste.
So
it's
just
kind
of
like
yes,
yes
and
yes
all
around.
J
So
yes,
we
like
to
add
comments,
but
it's
kind
of
also
just
a
no-brainer
to
say:
let's
pass
move
on,
and
you
Jamie
and
Jonathan
Pat
yourselves
on
the
back,
because
you
did
a
great
job
and
this
is
a
good
easy
lift.
So
thank
you
guys
for
the
hard
work
to
get
that
done.
H
I
I
was
just
gonna
make
a
motion.
Can
I
make
a
motion
to
adopt
ordinance,
8559
amending
section,
3-2-6,
exempt
property
and
services
and
chapter
6-15
disposable
bags,
fee
BRC,
exempting
the
Disposable
bag
fee
from
the
city's
sales
and
use
tax
and
aligning
the
carryout
bag
fee
with
Colorado
law
and
setting
forth
related
details.
A
second.
B
AT
B
Not
on
Jeopardy
here
all
right
motion
a
second
any
other
follow-up
things
I'll
just
call
on
myself
here
and
just
Echo.
The
the
thanks
on
a
job
extremely
well
done.
I,
appreciate
the
analysis
and
taking
this
positive
step
forward
to
get
us
away
from
the
Disposable
plastic
and
other
bags,
and
then
just
my
one
thing
is
to
say:
I
look
forward
to
your
reevaluation
of
it
in
coming
years
to
see
whether
the
fee
perhaps
should
be
higher,
so
look
forward
to
keeping
an
eye
on
that
all
right.
B
We
can
now
call
for
a
vote.
We've
got
leash,
I
lost
track.
What
kind
of
vote
are
we
taking
here?
We're.
G
D
M
H
B
B
Very
good,
so
we
made
up
a
little
bit
of
time.
I
I
mean
Nicole.
Do
you
want
to
just
go
ahead
and
give
a
quick
update
on
Dr
COG.
H
H
So
you
know,
folks
are,
are
up
for
doing
it.
Another
time
that
would
allow
us
to
have
transportation
staff,
who
are
experts
and
sounds
good
and
I,
see
Teresa
raised
her
hand.
B
B
Yes,
okay
can
I
introduce
the
item
the
so
so
our
last
item
here,
since
we're
not
doing
the
sister
city
update,
is
a
discussion
on
Council
appointments
to
the
library
district
trustee
selection
committee.
So
this
is
going
to
be
two
council
members
and
two
County
Commissioners
who
are
going
to
come
together
to
to
review
and
appoint
the
first
set
of
Library
District
trustees,
and
this
is
going
to
be
operating
on
a
pretty
quick
timetable.
I
I
hear
that
the
first
deployments
need
to
make
be
made
pretty
quickly.
B
This
will
be
a
fairly
substantial
time
commitment,
and
so,
if
we
have
whoever
volunteers
tonight
with
just
two
were
set,
but
we
will
Point
them
formally
on
December
the
December
1st
meeting
and
consent
and
I'll
just
call
for
for
volunteers.
You
know
I'm
gonna
I've
got
Matt
Nicole
and
myself
good
morning.
J
Me
just
say:
oh
I
I
was
virtually
saying
I'm
interested,
hence
my
virtual
hand.
I,
don't
know
if
there's
anything
you
said,
yeah
I
mean
I've
been
a
supporter
of
the
library's
Library
District.
The
formation
and
I
think
this
is
a
great
opportunity
but
happy
to
do
it.
I
think
all
the
forehands
here
are
all
equally
awesome
and
qualified
to
do
a
great
job
in
appointing
it
I
think
it'll
be.
J
Hopefully
we
can
from
Library
commission
and
keep
it
rather
simple
and
go
forth,
so
I
think
we're
in
good
hands
either
way.
H
Yeah
I
was
just
going
to
say
what
I
would
be
honored
to
do
it.
I
love
our
libraries.
They
have
a
very,
very
special
place
in
my
heart
and
been
kind
of
following
the
district
for
a
bit,
and
also
you
know,
Aaron
I
know
you
said
the
timeline
is,
is
fairly
quick.
Just
my
work
is
settling
down
a
little
bit
for
for
the
rest
of
the
year,
so
I
feel
like
I
could
carve
out
some
space
for
it
on
short
notice.
I
Yeah
I
Echo
a
lot
of
what's
been
said.
I
think
you
know,
I've
been
a
really
big
supporter
for
the
library
district,
I,
also
being
on
the
Consortium
and
sort
of
working
with
the
county
on
that
and
minimum
wage
I
just
feel
like
there's
more
potential
to
have
overlap
and
important
conversations.
B
Very
good
and
I'll
appreciate
everybody
raising
their
hand
and
I'm
interested
I've,
been
working
on
the
library
district
for
four
or
five
years
and
I'm
interested
in
seeing
seeing
it
through
this
next
step
in
the
formation
process,
so
I'm
interested
in
participating.
So
maybe
what
I
might
suggest?
We
can't
get
the
four
of
us
in
a
room
offline,
but
maybe
we
could
have
some
one-on-one
conversations
and
see
if
you
know
maybe
there's
one
or
a
couple
of
us
who
maybe
decide
maybe
step
back
and
is
that
all
right
Teresa?
J
AN
I
I
I
do
if
you
would
be
willing
to
let
City
staff
facilitate
those
conversations.
I
I
think
that
might
help
us
avoid
any
kind
of
open
meetings.
Concern.
B
L
Just
a
question:
do
we
do
we
know
that
Rachel
and
Mark
are
not
interested.
B
So
this
has
been
on
the
agenda
and
they
both
sent
emails
about
this
meeting
so
I
well,
I
confess
I
have
not
asked
either
of
them
individually.
That
was
on
the
agenda
and
and
they
did
weigh
in
on
the
meeting.
L
L
I'm,
sorry,
wherever
it
was
Nicole
and
and
and
Aaron,
maybe
somebody
has
to
be
checking
with
Rachel
and
Mark
when
they're
available.
There's
no
surprises.
B
Thanks
so
much
for
pointing
that
out,
okay,
anything
else,
I
think
we're
done
with
that
item.
That'll
come
back
on
December
1st,
any
last
comments
on
tonight's
meeting:
Nicole
you're
needed.
H
Thank
you
reaction
times
are
getting
slow
I
just
wanted
to
lift
up.
Rachel's
hotline
comment
about
the
information
item
in
the
art,
the
RFP
for
the
navigation
Center,
that's
going
to
be
going
out,
sounds
like
in
December
and
I
wanted
to
Echo
some
of
what
Rachel
was
saying
in
her
post
about
wanting
to
get
on
the
same
page
with
regard
to
what
the
goals
of
the
center
are.
H
So
I
was
wondering
if
there's
any
way
we
can
fit
in
a
discussion
before
the
RFP
goes
out
just
to
make
sure
we're
all
on
the
same
page
about
what
the
goals
of
this
Center
are,
because
I
would
hate
for
an
RFP
to
go
out
with
you
know,
goals
that
are
a
little
bit
misaligned
with
what
we
thought.
Foreign.
B
I'm,
seeing
a
lot
of
hands
pop
up
I
will
just
say
that
we
could
just
take
that
as
a
straightforward
scheduling
request
to
have
a
short
conversation
about
that
at
a
future
meeting.
So
I'd
rather
not
get
into
the
substance
of
it
tonight,
but
if
y'all,
if
anybody
else
wanted
to
weigh
in
on
whether
we
schedule
it
or
not,.
B
Great
okay
I
see
the
hands.
People
are
good
with
that.
So
can
we
consider
this
a
request
to
CAC
to
schedule
a
short
conversation
check
in
on
on
that
in
some
soon
to
become
meeting
Maria.
AH
Yes,
we
can
actually
my
hand
was
raised
about
something
else,
but
absolutely
we
took
it
as
a
CAC
request,
so
happy
to
consider
that
and
I
know,
staff
saw
that
as
well.
So,
okay.
AH
Hand
was
just
about
and
I
know
that
we
sent
press
release
I
believe
out,
but
just
a
note
that
we
will
be
delaying
our
opening
of
City
operations
for
two
hours.
So
we
will
not
be
open
until
10
o'clock
and
if
conditions
deteriorate
further,
we'll
send
out
another
message,
but
just
wanted
to
share
that.
