A
B
Good
afternoon
it's
september,
the
13th
and
I
hope
everyone
is
enjoying
this
fall
weather
that
we're
having
it's
said.
It
was
going
to
be
90
today,
so
I
didn't
go
outside
at
all.
I
wanted
to
call
the
meeting
of
the
charlotte
city
council
for
this
day
september,
the
13th
to
order
and
welcome
everyone.
That's
joining
us,
mr
woods,
we're
going
to
have
to
go
through
a
few
other
steps
before
we
get
to
you.
B
So
if
you
want
to
put
gene
woods
on
your
screen
and
and
do
other
things
for
a
few
minutes,
we
can
pull
you
back
up.
So
just
up
to
you.
Okay,
all
right
tonight's
meeting
is
being
held
as
a
virtual
meeting
in
accordance
with
the
electronic
meeting
statutes
and
all
the
requirements
of
the
statutes
are
being
met
and
through
electronic
means.
H
B
Okay,
has
everyone
been
introduced?
I
would
also
like
to
note
that
we
are
following
the
mass
mandate
that
we
have
in
mecklenburg
county
and
in
in
an
enclosed
building.
So
unless
eating
or
drinking
we
will
be
masked
all
right.
We
begin
our
meeting
with
an
invocation
or
an
expression
of
faith
or
inspiration
followed
by
our
pledge
of
allegiance.
I
Thank
you,
madam
mayor.
Let
us
bow
our
heads
and
pray
silently
together,
each
of
us,
according
to
our
individual
beliefs.
Let
us
offer
thanks
for
our
daily
bread
and
blessings
for
one
another.
Let
us
seek
to
be
a
source
of
hope
for
those
in
need
and
guide
us.
In
truth,
fairness,
good
will
friendship
and
concern
for
others.
Let
us
this
council
give
gratitude
for
our
opportunity
to
serve
our
great
city
and
give
us
the
strength
to
make
the
right
decisions.
A
M
B
Individual
with
liberty
and
justice
for
all.
Thank
you.
Everyone.
The
first
item
on
our
agenda,
is
that
we
ask
the
staff
and
the
council
members
to
have
any
questions
that
they've
seen
after
reading
the
agenda,
and
I
believe
that
I
see
ms
harris
coming
in
and
we
have
at
our
places
the
information
that
was
requested
today.
N
Yes
good
evening,
thank
you
mayor
and
council
and
mr
winston,
I
think
you're
the
main
one
that
I
have
the
written
questions
and
response
for
this
evening
that
one
was
on
a
business
item.
So
you'll
have
more
chance
to
discuss
that
one
as
well.
When
that
one
comes
up
for
vote
but
specific
to
your
questions
on
the
uniform.
Was
that
answer
satisfactory?
The
reason
it
looked
like
it
was
okay,
good,
thank
you
and
then
also
for
the
cats
inventory.
B
B
B
I
J
O
Yes,
ma'am.
I
just
wanted
to
draw
folks
attention,
sometimes
with
consent
agenda.
Things
fly
under
the
radar
and
I
think
several
people
have
already
flagged
this
in
the
media,
but
want
to
make
sure
that
people
see
that
we
are
moving
forward
on
number
35
with
a
new
light
rail
station
in
south
end,
where
one
is
much
needed.
So
I
think
that's
a
big
win
and
just
wanted
to
make
sure
that
that
didn't
fly
under
the
radar
tonight.
B
Thank
you
very
much
and
I
apologize
for
not
asking
if
there
was
a
need
for
a
comment
on
any
other
any
item.
So
are
there
any
other
items
for
a
comment?
Okay,
hearing
none.
We
will
now
go
to
the
action
review
portion
of
our
agenda
and
my
understanding
is
that
the
city
manager
has
got
two
reports
and
there
is
a
brief
closed
session
that
we
will
have,
because
it
is
a
repeat
of
something
that
we've
done
already
and
it's
just
the
city
attorney,
giving
us
an
a
final
decision
on
that.
B
F
So
thank
you,
mayor
and
members
of
council
tonight.
We
have
two
presentations
that
really
work
together,
one
as
you
may
recall,
when
sean
heath
was
reporting
on
the
arpa
funds,
he
indicated
that
there
is
a
2025
housing
and
homeless
strategy.
That's
been
in
the
works
since
earlier
this
year,
so
we'll
get
an
update
on
that
progress
there,
and
also
it's
that
time
of
year,
where
pam
comes
in
and
talks
about
the
housing,
trust
fund
and
some
recommendations
that
we
have.
F
I
think
what
you'll
see
tonight
is
a
mixture
of
some
of
the
noaa
product,
as
well
as
some
of
the
traditional
product
so
mayor.
If
there
aren't
any
questions,
I
can
introduce
item
number
three
on
the
action
briefing
all
right:
okay,
well,
okay
with
that
said
so
mayor
and
council,
as
I
mentioned
earlier
as
a
part
of
our
discussion
around
some
of
the
arpa
funds,
there
was
a
conversation
about
the
charlotte
mecklenburg,
2025,
housing
and
homeless
strategy,
which
was
launched
in
april.
F
F
This
initiative
is
co-chaired
by
two
extraordinary
local
leaders,
as
the
mayor
mentioned
earlier,
gene
woods
from
atrium
health,
as
well
as
kathy
passant
from
bank
of
america,
and
we
also
have
michael
smith
from
charlotte
center
partners
here
tonight,
as
gene
will
elaborate
on.
The
goal
of
this
effort
is
to
launch
a
five-year
strategic
plan
to
help
charlotte
meckenberg
become
a
national
leader
in
addressing
homelessness
and
tonight's.
P
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
greetings,
mayor
lyles
and
members
of
city
council.
Let
me
just
say
thank
you
for
having
us
here
tonight
and
marcus
to
you
and
your
team.
You've
been
fantastic
and
has
really
leaned
in
to
help
support
the
multiple
committees
and
work
streams,
so
we're
happy
to
present
a
progress
report
on
on
what
we've
been
up
to
to
date
and
also
councilman.
Graham,
you
serve
on
one
of
our
work
groups,
so
really
appreciate
your
active
interest
as
well.
P
I
guess
I'd
start
off
by
saying
I'm
really
honored
to
co-chair
the
development
of
the
2025
charlotte
mecklenburg,
housing
and
homelessness
strategy
with
kathy
passant
from
bank
of
america,
who,
unfortunately
couldn't
be
here
tonight,
but
it
has
been
a
very,
very
engaged
co-chair
and
this
evening
we
want
to
discuss
the
first.
We
believe
the
comprehensive
effort
to
address
housing,
instability
and
homelessness
in
our
community.
That
involves
private
public
and
not-for-profit
sectors
and
the
reason
I
guess
I
personally
agreed
to
co-chair
the
initiative.
P
Notwithstanding
everything
going
on
and
battling
the
pandemic
is
because
it's
one
of
the
things
that
really
has
connected
us
to
our
purpose.
Some
of
us
have
family
or
friend
members
that
have
experienced
homelessness,
and
this
is
an
opportunity.
I
think
that
we
have
collectively
to
deal
with
the
devastating
impacts.
P
P
And
if
I
step
back,
I
can't
imagine
personally
the
conversation
this
man
had
with
his
sons.
As
a
father
myself,
I
can't
imagine,
having
that
conversation
with
my
sons
to
leave
a
home
for
the
streets
and
so
we're
here
to
help
solve
for
countless
of
scenarios
such
as
this
one
in
our
community
that
are
occurring
every
single
day.
So
if
you
go
to
the
next
slide,
please.
P
To
do
so,
we
know
requires
a
comprehensive
plan,
but
even
more
than
that,
I
think
it
requires
a
community
that
bounced
together,
perhaps
like
we've,
never
have
before
some
might
call
it
band
together
in
a
way
that
is
radically
collaborating
in
new
ways
and
that's
why
I'm
I'm
really
really
passionate
and
excited
about
the
engagement
that
we're
having
with
a
wide
group
of
stakeholders,
including
those
who
have
lived
experience
that
are
helping
us
shape.
The
plan
that
we're
going
to
be
sharing
here
tonight.
P
P
Charlotte
works,
charlotte
mecklenburg,
schools,
child
care
resources,
inc
commonwealth,
charlotte
communities
in
school,
community
care
bridge
council
for
children's
rights,
covenant,
presbyterian,
church
crescent
communities,
crisis
assistant
ministry,
to
name
just
a
few
so
kathy,
and
I
and
the
entire
work
group
are
so
grateful
to
have
such
a
widespread
interest
and
dedicated
involvement
in
in
establishing
and
developing
this
comprehensive
plan.
That,
as
marcus
said,
will
be
finalized
in
the
end
of
october.
P
So
if
our
community
really
is
to
be
a
national
model
and
avoid
the
fate
of
other
metro
areas
struggling
to
address
this
very
issue,
then
it's
going
to
be
important
to
approach
this
differently,
to
chart
a
new
course
and
also
we
spend
a
lot
of
time
learning
from
best
national
practice,
and
we
have
to
do
this
in
a
way
that
again,
we
probably
have
never
done
before.
So
in
a
nutshell,
that
is
the
reason
that
we
are
here
tonight.
P
Q
So
michael,
thank
you.
Gene
thanks
for
your
leadership,
mayor
and
council,
so
great
to
be
with
you.
Thank
you
for
the
leadership
that
you
always
provide
around
these
issues
of
housing,
affordability
and
I'm
pleased
that
we're
sharing
really
a
great
approach
that
is
incredibly
unique
in
so
many
efforts.
Special
thanks
to
mckenzie
and
company
for
the
great
consultive
support
they've
provided
on
this
journey.
Q
We
firmly
believe
that
creating
a
community
where
everyone
can
thrive
is
a
critical
component
of
this
work
and
will
benefit
all
the
residents
of
charlotte
mecklenburg.
This
really
is
a
unique
approach.
We
hope
that
this
approach
and
all
the
voices
that
have
been
involved
are
going
to
allow
us
to
come
up
with
things
that
are
comprehensive
and
so
thoughtful.
I'm
now
glad
to
turn
it
over
to
our
friend
pam
weidman,
who
serves
on
the
technical
committee
for
this
work,
to
share
more
of
the
specifics
and
where
we
are
today
and
what's
next
pam.
R
Good
evening,
mayor
city,
council
and
manager
jones,
thank
you
michael
and
gene
for
that,
as
your
housing
director
and
as
a
member
of
the
technical
committee.
I'm
pleased
to
share
this
update
with
you
on
behalf
of
the
other
members
of
the
technical
committee,
as
well
as
the
nine
work
streams.
If
you'll
go
to
the
next
slide.
For
me,
please
wendy
the
nine
work
streams
which
you'll
see
depicted
on
the
slide,
as
well
as
my
colleague,
sean
heath
manager,
jones
and
other
city
staff.
Who've
contributed
to
this
work.
R
The
nine
work
streams
has
been
previously
mentioned
has
been
working
since
may
to
identify
and
prioritize
draft
recommendations
that
are
informed
by
research
and
best
practices.
Four
of
the
work
streams
are
devoted
to
the
four
main
impact
areas
of
the
strategic
plan,
which
are
prevention,
temporary
housing,
long-term,
affordable
housing
and
cross-sector
supports
the
other
five
work.
Streams
are
focused
on
the
foundational
work
which
will
be
required
to
enable
the
what
work
streams,
impact
which
are
policy,
funding,
data
and
analytics
communication
and
ongoing
strategy
support.
R
If
you
go
to
the
next
slide
for
me,
please,
since
the
launch
of
the
charlotte
mecklenburg,
housing
and
homeless
strategy
in
april
over
250
individuals
and
115
organizations
have
signed
on
to
participate
in
the
planning
development
work,
we
recognize
that
before
putting
any
plans
into
action
that
it
was
imperative
to
listen
to
any
and
all
ideas
from
across
our
community,
we've
sought
to
engage
a
broad
spectrum
of
stakeholders
has
pos
as
possible
through
a
variety
of
methods,
and
we
aren't
done
yet
if
you'll
go
to
the
next
slide.
For
me,
please.
R
This
slide
reflects
the
major
themes
that
have
emerged
across
the
work:
the
what
and
the
how
work
streams
and
summarizes
the
primary
objectives
to
the
work
streams
that
the
work
streams
are
seeking
to
achieve
with
their
recommendations.
While
recommendations
are
still
under
development,
we
want
to
share
with
you
each
of
these
themes.
The
first
theme
is
equity,
with
a
focus
on
solutions
that
rectify
or
address
historical
and
existing
inequities.
R
R
If
you
go
to
the
next
slide
for
me,
please,
this
slide
is
just
to
illustrate
other
examples
of
the
draft
initiatives
from
all
of
the
nine
work
streams.
You
can
see
here
that
four,
what
work
streams
are
in
blue
and
then
the
five,
how
work
streams
are
until
at
the
bottom
of
your
screen,
the
work
work
stream
initiatives
include
improving
the
front
door
of
assistance
in
our
community
by
strengthening
the
intake
and
triage
system.
R
The
how
work
stream
initiatives
include
reducing
barriers
to
housing
for
justice
involved,
adults,
developing
a
standardized
intake
and
data
collection
process
from
across
the
different
systems
to
reduce
the
number
of
times
a
person
has
to
tell
his
or
her
story
and
to
coordinate
resources
for
them.
Again.
It's
really
important
to
note
that
this
is
just
a
sample
of
the
work
that
has
been
going
on
if
you'll
go
to
the
next
slide.
R
B
G
Thank
you,
madam
mayor,
and
it's
more
of
a
comment
and
then
two
questions
towards
the
end.
Just
want
to
thank
mr
woods
and
kathy
and
michael
smith.
Marcus
pam
who's
been
working
with
us
on
this
effort.
I
am
a
member
of
the
center
city
partners,
board
of
directors
and
have
the
opportunity
to
work
on
the
task
force
with
with
gene
and
the
team,
and
I
just
want
to
thank
them
for
the
months
of
hard
work
that
we
put
into
this.
G
This
started
really
last
year,
michael,
as
you
know,
in
terms
of
just
trying
to
how
do
we
connect
the
dots
and
and
really
begin
to
address
the
issues
as
a
community,
the
private
sector,
the
public
sector,
as
well
as
non-profits
and
the
organizat
in
the
community.
So
I
am
very
very
pleased
that
we're
at
this
point
that
we
are
getting
ready
to
dot
eyes
and
crossteas,
as
relates
to
producing
a
final
report
for
public
consideration,
as
well
as
the
consideration
of
the
the
charlotte
city
council.
G
It
should
be
note
that
I
did
have
the
opportunity
also
last
week
to
hear
the
presentation
that
was
given
also
to
the
mecklenburg
board
of
county
commission.
So
my
comments
tonight
is
reflective
of
what
I
heard
then,
in
terms
of
some
of
the
questions
back
and
forth
from
the
commissioners
to
mr
wiz
and
mrs
passant
as
well
as
mr
woods
all
meeting
last
week
when
we
talked
specifically
about
how
do
we
implement
the
plan
once
it's
done,
and
so
my
questions
and
comments
are
around
those
two
items.
G
How
do
we
bring
it
to
life
who's
going
to
be
responsible
for
doing
the
work,
making
sure
that
what
we
have
is
not
just
words
on
paper
but
they're
action
items
that
can
be
actionable
and
that
we
as
a
community
can
hold
ourselves
accountable
for,
and
so
the
the
conversation
we
had
last
week
was
creating
a
new
non-profit
to
to
do
some
of
this
work.
I'm
not
sure.
G
G
Is
our
lead
agency
for
homelessness
in
this
community
they
house
all
the
supportive
services
necessary
to
be
effective
and
efficient
right
away,
and
they
have
the
capacity
with
a
a
homeless
closer,
and
we
can
use
that
word
someone
trying
to
lead
this
effort
to
hit
the
ground
running
versus
creating
a
new
entity
to
do
do
the
work.
I
think
we
waste
time
by
doing
that
where
we
can
really
focus
on
the
work,
and
so
it's
not
really
a
question.
It's
just
mr
woods
and
michael
something
for
you
to
kind
of
think
about.
G
As
we
begin
to
the
finalized
report,
is
the
community
is
going
to
want
to
know
that
that
we
have
the
capacity
to
deliver
on
the
promise
right
and
who's
going
to
lead
the
charge
to
making
sure
that
that
we
deliver
on
their
promise
and
that
there's
some
accountabilities
that
that
we're
doing
just
that,
and
so
hopefully
there's
going
to
be
more
conversation.
Mr
wades,
in
terms
of
what
does
that
look
like,
and
how
do
we
kind
of
make
that
happen
right?
G
I
I
hope
that
we
can
be
narrowly
focused
on
dealing
with
the
issue
of
homelessness
and
not
try
to
be
too
broad,
based
where
we're
trying
to
deal
with
homelessness
and
affordable
housing
right.
I
think,
if
we
do
that,
we
really
lose
our
focus.
I
think
our
focus
should
be
providing
the
resources
necessary
to
tackle
the
homeless
problem.
Specifically,
that
is
from
you
know,
homelessness
to
maybe
sro
housing,
anything
under
30
of
ami
and
below.
I
think
it's
right
within
our
sweet
spot
and
anything
above
that
I
think
it
takes
away.
G
I
don't
think
we
should
do
it.
I'm
going
to
be
quite
honest
with
you.
I
I
think
we
ought
to
be
narrowly
tailored.
Now
we
focus
focusing
on
that
population
because
again,
the
city
of
charlotte
does
such
a
great
job
in
the
affordable
housing
space
to
to
to
to
give
up
some
of
that
work,
all
right
for
the
lack
of
a
better
way
of
saying
it
or
to
foster
some
of
that
work
out
to
another
third
party
organization.
If
that
is
to
occur,
I
don't
think
would
be
in
the
best
interest
of
the
city.
G
P
Thank
you
appreciate
the
the
very
insightful
comments,
the
two
things
one
is
on
the
latter
point.
I
do
think
that
there's
so
many
different
root
causes
to
homelessness,
but
to
your
point,
if
we
try
to
address
some
education,
the
mobility
and
everything,
I
don't
think
we
we
we
accomplish
what
we
really
want
around
the
set
of
homelessness.
P
So
I
think
that
the
the
committee
is
refining
that
specific
task
and
what
success
looks
like
around
the
idea
of
homelessness
so
that
we're
not
trying
to
solve
everything
all
the
social
determinants
of
health
and
and
and
homelessness
at
one
time.
So
I
think
those
are
those
are
good
comments
and
and
we'll
continue
to
to
have
that
conversation
about
what
the
success
specifically
looked
like
around
that
on
the
structure.
P
Typically,
a
very
big
form
follows
function,
type
leader,
so
I
think
once
we
get
the
report
finalized,
I
think
the
question
is
the
one
that
you
asked:
what
structures,
what
vehicles
are
going
to
be
most
effective
in
terms
of
carrying
out
the
strategic
plan.
The
plan
will
be
10
of
it.
The
90
of
it
is
going
to
be
execution,
so
I
think
once
we
get
the
plan,
then
I
think
to
your
point.
We
can
have
that
dialogue.
S
So
I
I
really
liked
a
lot
of
the
things
I
heard
particularly
an
emphasis
on
data
and
how
you
guys
were
going
to
use
that
as
a
as
a
really
overriding
you
know,
map
quest,
so
to
speak
of
where
you're
going.
I
think
not
just
emphasizing
that,
but
also
outlining
what
success
looks
like
in
relation
to
that
data
and
those
metrics.
S
I
think
that's
going
to
be
critical
there
and
I
like
that
you've
called
that
out.
I
think
the
only
thing
I
didn't
see
in
there
and
again,
I'm
just
speaking
from
a
macro
strategy
perspective
of
this
being
the
guiding
force
for
the
work
you
guys
have
underway
would
be
when
you
think
of
a
system-wide
approach,
one
thought
has
to
center
around
the
givers
and
I
believe
you
know,
I
believe,
there's
a
huge
piece
that
I'll
say
it
as
elegantly
as
possible:
the
responsibility
of
the
giver.
S
I
guess
that's,
maybe
the
four
of
my
question,
michael
and
jean,
is
that
something
you're
also
contemplating,
because
we
can
build
the
greatest
system
in
the
world.
It
has
every
scenario
for
for
every
option
that
comes
in,
but
if
we
still
have,
you
know,
forces
that
are
pushing
folks
away
from
entering
those
systems
and
getting
the
help
they
need
it.
It
may
just
end
up
being
repeating
some
of
the
mistakes
of
the
past
I'll
leave
it
with
that
kind
of
question
for
how
you
guys
are
thinking
about
that
and
thank
you.
P
P
So
there's,
I
think
part
of
it
is
also
if
I
understand
the
question
part
of
it
is
also
the
responsibility
to
make
to
make
sense
and
make
it
easy
to
access
some
of
these
resources.
That
already
exist,
because
it's
quite
complicated
and
it's
it's
triple
complicated
if
you're
homeless
and
not
don't
know
where
to
go
with
this
so
part
of
what
we're
thinking
about
that
is
first
making
the
system
much
easier.
S
In
just
one
point
of
clarification,
I
agree
with
all
of
that.
I
think
just
said
a
little
more
bluntly.
What
I
mean
is
when
folks
are
homeless
and
are
looking
for
assistance.
We
keep
hearing
reports
again
and
again.
We
remember
a
2018
article,
where
the
non-profit
leaders
of
the
community
came
together
and
penned
an
op-ed
again
it's
about
when
they're
on
the
streets
and
they're
getting
some
levels
of
resources
that
they
can
keep
afloat
there.
S
It
keeps
many
good
folks
out
of
the
systems
that
are
designed
to
help
them.
So
it
goes
back
to
you
know,
from
aggressive
panhandling
to
everyone
who's.
Just
given
a
couple
bucks
down
the
street
when,
in
reality
that
person
maybe
needs
to
be
at
a
roof
above
or
one
of
the
other
places
again,
it's
it's
a
complicated
topic,
but
it's
I
don't
think
it's
one.
We
can
ignore
as
a
huge
factor
for
ensuring
that
the
people
get
into
the
system.
L
L
L
Does
a
better
job
of
centering
us
us,
the
policy
makers,
us
the
corporations,
us
the
folks
that
are
around
the
table,
doing
the
work
and
it
doesn't
necessarily
center
the
condition
of
our
our
homeless
neighbors.
I
would
ask:
why
is
the
goal
not
more
ambitious?
Why
is
the
goal
not
to
eliminate
homelessness
here
in
charlotte
and
mecklenburg
county,
and
I
I'd
leave
that
to
miss
weidman
senator
of
councilman,
graham,
mr
smith,
when
there's
whoever
once
wants
to
take
that
whoever's
been
around
the
table.
B
P
P
L
P
Yeah
I
mean
it
could
be
a
matter
of
words.
We
said
current
current
and
preventing
future
homelessness,
so
that
was
the
way
that
articulated
we
can
be.
We
certainly
can
be
more
precise,
but
that's
that's
really
brexit.
It
was
an
attempt
to
get
at
that
so
at
addressing
current
and
preventing
future
homelessness.
The
different
way
of
saying
that,
but
I
think
your
point
is
well
taken.
Q
We
were
also
trying
to
learn
from
our
last
effort.
Around
chronic
homelessness
was
called
housing
first
and
we
were
able
to
find
permanent
supportive
housing
for
over
a
thousand
of
our
of
our
fellow
citizens,
our
other,
and
what
we
found
is.
There
was
not
enough
focus
upstream
and
the
pipeline
of
people
falling
into
homelessness.
We
were
not
keeping
up,
and
that
effort
was
about
ending
chronic
homelessness
within
24
months.
Q
L
Thank
you
anybody
else
who
wants
to
chime
in,
but
I
would
love
if
that
was
the
stated
goal.
I
think
that
would
be
ambitious
and
bold.
It
would
obviously
put
us
as
a
leader
if
we
were
able
to
figure
this
out
and
I'm
happy
to
come
to
the
table
to
figure
out.
You
know
how
we
can
measure
that
how
we
can
work
towards
that
or
whatever
it
needs
to
be.
Thank
you.
E
E
E
D
D
D
I
know
that
this
this
group
is
simply
or
not
simply
but
focused
on
homelessness,
but
affordable
housing
in
our
city
is
still
a
crisis,
so
that
is
part
of
the
challenge,
as
you
all
know
that
there's
a
lack
of
inventory
and
affordable
housing.
I
would
also
say
some
of
the
challenges
and
I
hope
that
there's
a
focus
on
the
mental
health
piece
and
the
trauma
as
a
as
an
advocate
for
head
injury
and
brain
brain
injury,
there's
data
that
shows
one
and
two
individuals
who
are
homeless
have
a
history
of
head
injury.
D
We
also
know
the
criminal
records
is
a
huge
barrier
for
housing
here
in
this
city
and
the
eviction,
so
I
would
just
say,
having
been
working
with
homeless
populations
for
the
past
decade,
I
I
would
just
ask
that
there
be
focus
on
trauma
and
criminal
records
and
the
lack
of
medical
care,
and
I
would
ask
my
republican
colleagues
to
to
assist
in
the
medicaid
expansion.
I
think
that
that
would
really
clear
up
some
of
the
problems
with
the
homeless
if
people
could
have
access
to
the
appropriate
medical
treatment,
but
I'm
excited
about
this
focus.
D
D
P
K
Thank
you
mayor,
mayor
great,
to
see
you
jin
and
thank
you
for
the
presentation
and
michael
thank
you
for
your
contribution
as
well.
A
couple
of
my
questions
have
already
been
addressed
around
the
execution
and
really
having
concrete
steps
next
steps
so
that
it
leads
to
an
action
and-
and
it's
not
just
the
plan-
also
michael
touched
on
the
housing
first
program.
So
I
have
a
follow-up
question
to
that.
K
Q
Housing
first
is
a
national
best
practice
and
will
continue
to
be
something
that
we
implement
and
look
to
expand
on
through
the
recommendations
of
this
plan.
It's
it
there's
nothing
like
a
home
to
solve
homelessness,
not
to
oversimplify,
but
that's
the
basis
is
rapid
re-housing
with
supportive
services.
It
will
be
a
part
of
it.
K
Absolutely-
and
you
know
we
have
seen
it
work
really
well
in
other
cities
across
the
nation.
It's
a
national
model
like
you
mentioned,
and
it
really
gives
dignity
to
residents
who
are
experiencing
homelessness
because
you
can't
really
access
mental
health
treatment
and
so
on
and
without
the
housing.
I
think
housing
goes
first,
so
it's
great
to
hear
that
that
it's
continuing
to
be
part
of
the
discussion,
I'm
also
interested
in
hearing.
If
there
has
been
any
discussion
with
county
commissioner
and
have
they
been
given
presentation.
P
Yeah,
actually,
the
county
commissioners
we've
got
dina,
dina
who's
also
actively
involved,
and
we
provided
a
presentation
to
them.
I
think
it
was
last
week
so
they've
they've
heard
a
similar
version
and
are
also
actively
involved
in
the
in
the
work
group.
So
when
we
talk
about
this
is
going
to
require
everybody's
collaboration,
that
includes
city,
county
businesses
and
and
so
forth.
So.
Q
Q
What
involvement
will
the
city
the
county
and
cms
have
they
recommended
that
we
do
have
a
conversation
with
cms
and
we
are
because
there
are
lots
of
homeless
children
that
are
in
our
school
system
and
if
we're
going
to
have
a
comprehensive
plan
it
needs
to
think
about.
You
know
everyone
that
is
affected
by
housing,
insecurity
and
homelessness.
K
Q
K
H
H
Now
I
know
that
the
timeline
is
probably
dated,
but
now
I
don't
need
a.
I
don't
need
an
answer
or
an
explanation
right
now,
but
I
would
like
to
connect
at
some
point
with
either
mr
smith
or
mr
woods
or,
mr
president,
just
to
get
an
idea
of
of
what
would
make
what
makes
this
plan
a
better
plan,
or
I
would
hope
that
we
would
have
built
on
all
of
the
previous
plans,
but
just
what
makes
this
plan
more
hopeful
than
our
efforts
in
the
past
that
have
failed
to
materialize.
B
B
For
me,
the
most
important
thing
that
I
think
happens
is
that
we
do
take
a
fresh
look
at
everything
every
time
that
we
have
the
ability
to
bring
in
what's
better
what
might
be
different
and
what
will
be
done.
15
years
ago,
seattle
was
known
as
the
number
one
place
in
dealing
with
homelessness
and
housing,
and
today
it
is
not
that
so
you
have
to
come
back
and
rethink
redo
and
look
at
what
the
new
challenges
are,
and
there
are
a
lot
of
challenges.
B
B
Imagine
what
you're
trying
to
solve.
So
I
want
to
say
that
I
think
every
council
member
around
this
table
applauds
you
and
is
grateful
that
you're
taking
a
new
look
to
deal
with
those
eighty
one
thousand
who
need
a
place
to.
We
need
to
keep
them
in
their
houses
to
the
three
thousand
that
need
a
place
to
live.
So
thank
you
so
very
much.
We
look
forward
to
the
october
report
and
with
that
hearing
that
we
will
go
to
our
next
topic
and
say,
thank
you
go
and
have
a
great
rest
of
your
evening.
F
So,
thank
you,
mayor
of
members
of
council,
we'll
have
pam
weidman
come
in
and
give
you
an
update
on
the
housing
trust
fund
recommendations,
and
if
we
go
back
a
little
bit
in
time,
I
think
pam.
It
would
have
been.
I
guess,
the
beginning
with
the
combination
with
the
city
and
the
private
sector
to
get
our
htf
allocation
up
from
15
million
to
50.
and
now
you're,
starting
to
see
some
of
the
fruits
of
that
collaboration
and
so
pam
I'll
turn
it
over
to
you.
R
Thank
you
manager,
jones
again,
mayor
and
council.
Thank
you
for
allowing
me
to
present
to
you
tonight
wendy.
If
you'll
go
ahead
and
go
to
the
next
slide.
I
know
you
all
are
very
familiar
with
this.
So
I'll
get
through
this
as
quickly
as
I
can,
but
I
want
a
level
set
with
you
and
madame.
I
think
you
asked
this
the
last
time
when
we
were
here
in
march
or
april,
and
so
we
sent
something
out,
but
I
want
to
just
just
level
set
by
stating
with
that.
R
We
you
you,
mr
jones,
you
alluded
to
a
hundred
million
in
housing
bonds
since
the
2018
referendum,
the
city
council,
and
you
guys
should
applaud
yourself
for
this.
You've
awarded
67
million
of
that
hundred
million
since
since
since
we
started
this
in
2018
this,
this
includes
the
three
million
that
is
set
aside
for
brook
hill
and
so
I'll
talk
about
that
a
little
bit
later.
But
you
have
a
total
of
33
developments
underway
now.
Allow
me
to
break
that
down,
for
you
just
a
little
more,
that
is
a
total
of
3958
units.
R
21
2
150
of
those
units
are
either
complete
or
they're
under
construction,
with
the
remaining
1808
in
the
closing
process
and
so
of
all
of
those
units.
I
would
just
remind
you
that,
because
of
your
housing
trust
fund
guidelines,
at
least
20
percent
of
all
of
those
developments
must
include
housing
units
for
households
that
are
earning
30
and
below.
So
I
thought
that's
very
important
to
raise,
as
it
relates
to
the
discussion
that
we
just
had.
R
R
It
often
includes
an
application
to
the
state
for
either
a
nine
percent
or
four
percent
low
income
housing
tax
credit
it
doesn't
have
to
tonight
we're
only
talking
about
those
four
percent
tax
credits,
because
you
all
have
already
approved
the
cycle
for
the
nine
percent,
which
is
once
per
year
and
some
noah's
and
also
spoiler
alert.
You
have
some
homeownership
in
here
as
well.
R
I
talked
about
at
least
20
percent
of
the
units
must
be
targeted
to
households,
earning
30
and
below
the
area,
median
income
and
there's
always
a
long-term
deed
restriction.
Our
goal
is
not
just
to
create
these
units,
but
to
preserve
them
over
the
long
term.
So
if
you'll
go
to
the
next
slide.
For
me,
please
wendy.
R
F
R
Correct.
Thank
you,
sir.
If
you
go
to
the
next
slide
for
me,
please
wendy,
just
as
a
reminder.
You
started.
We
we
had
a
little
bit
of
carryover
from
the
2018
when
we
started
this
in
january,
so
we
started
with
a
51
million
there.
We,
we
you,
you
all,
have
approved.
12
million
and
4
percent
development,
you've
approved
3.1
million
in
non-litec
developments,
and
you
approved
2.4
for
nine
percent
in
april.
R
Since
that
time
noaa's
are
you'll
recall
they
can
be
presented
to
us
on
a
rolling
or
flexible,
because
we
want
to
capture
those
before
they're
bought
up
by
an
out
of
town,
investor
or
otherwise,
so
you've
awarded
a
billion
most
recently
to
the
pines
on
wendover.
So
we
are
beginning
the
discussion
tonight
with
32.7
million
dollars.
R
If
you
go
to
the
next
slide.
For
me,
please
always,
as
the
mayor
just
said,
we
always
like
to
take
a
fresh
look.
You
all
will
recall
in
2020
as
a
result
of
the
mayor's
housing
task
force.
We
did
a
couple
of
things.
The
task
force
recommended
that
we
continue
down
our
path
of
new
construction,
that
we
continue,
including
supportive
services,
but
that
and
we
continue
preserving
supporting
noaa's,
but
what
was
really
new
out
of
that
was
setting
aside
a
portion
of
your
trust
fund
dollars
for
home
ownership.
R
This
is
our
second
time
doing
that
we
continue
to
learn
the
first
time
we
we
had
a
lot
of
questions,
but
we
didn't
get
any
takers.
You
all
asked
us
to
go
back
talk
with
the
development
community,
the
for
sale
development
community
to
see
what
we
needed
to
do,
what
we
needed
to
change
to
get
some
takers,
and
so
we
did
that
if
you
go
to
the
next
slide
for
me,
please
we
share
this
with
with
our
development
community
we
bring
as
as
normal
practice.
We
we
bring
the
development
community
together,
we
release
an
rfp.
R
We
did
that
on
july,
9th
developers
had
until
august
9th
to
submit
their
proposals.
We
other
details
that
I
won't
bore
you
with,
but
tonight
we're
here
september
13th.
We
want
to
brief
you
and
then
we'll
come
back
on
the
27th
and
we'll
ask
for
your
approval
of
these.
So
we're
not
asking
you
to
make
any
decisions
tonight,
we're
just
simply
briefing
you,
as
we
said
we
would
in
every
round
if
you
go
to
the
next
live
for
me,
please,
in
terms
of
community
participation.
R
This
is
a
pretty
standard
slide.
We
do
require
community
meetings.
Some
of
those
meetings
are
still
in
process,
but
they
all
will
have
occurred
before
we
ask
you
to
approve
these
on
the
27th
if
you'll
go
to
the
next
slide.
For
me,
please
again,
this
is
just
another
depiction
of
the
process
I
mean.
What's
most
important
here.
Is
that
we're
here
tonight
on
the
13th
briefing
you
our
partners
at
lisk?
R
They
will
also
brief
their
investment
advisory
committee
pretty
shortly
as
well,
so
that
we
can
all
be
in
sync
for
their
vote
and
for
your
vote
on
on
this
on
the
27th.
If
you'll
go
to
the
next
slide.
For
me,
please
again,
this
is
another
depiction
of
the
process.
Lisk,
they
have
their
investment
advisory
approval.
R
Applications
are
submitted
to
the
finance
agency.
They
will
get
approved
we'll
both
the
city
and
lisk
will
work
on
closing
the
loan.
So
we
can
get
these
projects
underway
and
under
construction
and
then
they'll
be
constructed
and
we'll
monitor
through
that
process.
If
you'll
go
to
the
next
slot.
For
me,
please
wendy.
These
are
our
policies
and
our
evaluation
criteria.
R
R
If
you
get
to
the
next
slide
for
me,
please
we
always
like
to
learn
not
just
from
our
housing
but
from
both
our
sustainability
efforts,
and
so
you
can
see
that
there's
some
sustainability
and
green
building
energy
efficiency
requirements,
not
not
that
only
you
all
have,
or
we
have
a
city
of
charlotte,
but
the
north
carolina
housing
finance
agency
has
and
mr
bakari,
you
always
keep
me
honest,
and
I
appreciate
that
workforce
development.
We
don't
forget
about
that.
We
don't
want
to
just
get
people
in
housing.
R
R
What
I
will
say
is,
I
won't
go
through
these,
but
what
I
will
point
out
to
you
tonight
is
that
you're
going
to
see
two
naturally
occurring
and
you're
going
to
see
some
senior
developments
which,
according
to
our
guidelines,
those
are
exempt
from
your
locational
guidelines
and
all
that
scoring
and,
of
course,
the
the
the
affordable
home
ownership
is
as
well.
If
you
go
to
the
next
slot.
R
Who
who
make
this
a
presentation
and
this
work
possible,
go
to
the
next
slide.
For
me,
please,
our
approach
remains
the
same.
It's
housing,
neighborhood
services
in
partnership
with
lisc
we're
looking
at
data
as
we
make
these
decisions,
and
then
we
have
our
guiding
principles:
our
housing
trust
fund,
our
charlotte
housing
opportunity
fund.
R
If
there's
public
or
privately
owned
land
involved,
we
try
to
incorporate
low-cost
debt,
our
partnership
within
libyan,
where
they've
set
aside
some
project-based
housing
vouchers
for
us,
and
then
we
try
to
use
our
state
and
federal
resources
again
to
make
this
work
possible.
If
you
go
to
the
next
slide.
For
me,
this
is
the
meat
of
the
presentation
you
will
see
in
terms
of
four
percent
proposals.
We
have
a
total
of
five.
R
You
will
see
and
I
walk
through
each
of
these-
what
I
would
point
out
if
you'll
just
go
ahead
and
go
to
the
next
slide.
For
me,
I
walk
through
these
really
briefly,
but
what
you?
What
you
will
see
is
we
have
two
noaa's.
We
have
two
home
ownership
and
we
have
two
in
areas
of
high
opportunity
and
I'll
walk
through
those.
You
can
pretty
much
go.
R
Well,
let
me
let
me
stay
here
for
just
a
second
here.
You
can
see
our
total
request
here.
What
I
always
like
to
to
point
to
is
on
average
your
s
put
your
city.
Investment
per
unit
is
about
26
000
per
unit.
You
can
see
that
lisk
is
putting
in
12
12
million
there
and
so
for
a
total
of
again
879
units
in
this
round.
Should
you
all
approve
all
of
these?
If
you
go
to
the
next
slide.
R
For
me,
please,
26
of
this
is
dedicated
toward
those
households
earning
30
and
below
again.
That
relates
to
the
pres,
the
discussion
we
just
had
and
let
me
just
go
back
one.
I
know
a
couple
times
ago
we
talked
about
not
having
those
units
at
the
50
percent,
and
so
you
can
see
that
12
of
the
units
are
for
50
households.
If
you
go
to
the
next
slide
for
me,
please
this
is
alder's
gate.
They
are.
R
Their
request
is
2.9
million
from
the
housing
trust
fund
and
3
million
from
from
from
the
choice
the
housing
opportunity
investment
fund.
I
won't
read
this
to
you:
136
units,
a
leverage
ratio
of
1
to
eight
a
30-year
affordability
period
there.
If
you
go
to
the
next
slide
for
me,
please
valentine's
seniors
apartments.
I
know
we've
been
talking
about
this
for
a
while.
R
This
is
in
district
seven.
What
what
I
want
to
point
out
on
this
one
is
the
htf
request
is
4
million
in
our
rfp
and
through
conversations
with
you
all,
we
talked
a
lot
about.
If
we
want
to
do
this
in
areas
of
high
opportunity,
we
know
that
we
will
need
a
a
higher
or
an
increased
housing
trust
fund
development.
R
I
don't
think
anybody
is
against
that,
but
I
wanted
to
just
point
that
out
in
exchange,
though,
I
really
want
to
commend
the
develop
the
development
community
in
exchange
the
developer
on
this
one,
particularly
for
that
they
have
agreed
to
a
40-year
affordability
period
rather
than
a
30-year.
We
don't
want
to
just
get
these
on
the
ground,
but
we
want
to
keep
them
affordable
for
as
long
as
we
can,
particularly
in
these
areas
of
high
opportunity.
R
If
you
go
to
the
next
slide.
For
me,
please
the
same
thing
with
eighth
and
try
on
this.
The
request
is
3.2
million
here,
because
it's
in
an
area
of
high
opportunity,
the
developer
has
agreed
to
a
40-year
affordability
commitment
on
this
one
as
well.
If
you
go
to
the
next
slide
for
me,
please
galloway
crossing
the
request
is
2.4.
R
The
affordability
period
is
30
years,
78
units
there,
it's
a
senior
development
as
well.
If
you
go
to
the
next
slide
for
me,
please
historic,
nathaniel
carr.
If
this
is
a
senior
development
as
well,
you
can
see
the
htf
request
and
the
the
choice
request:
30-year
affordability,
senior
development,
120
units
if
you'll
go
to
the
next
slide.
For
me,
please,
this
is
the
first
of
two
noaa's.
This
is
mapleway
apartments.
R
It's
in
district
one,
it's
consistent
with
our
housing
plan
in
terms
of
preserving
units
you
can
see
a
before
and
after
picture
and
what's
really
exciting
about
this
noaa
is
not
only
are
we
keeping
people
in
place,
so
this
is
one
of
your
truest
forms
of
anti-displacement,
so
this
is
anti-displacement
work
that
you're
you're
already
doing
in
advance
of
the
nest
commission.
I
know
you
guys
are
going
to
talk
about
that
later
tonight,
but
this
is
an
example
of
anti-displacement.
R
What's
also
exciting
about
this
is
that
the
developer
here
will
partner
with
atrium,
to
provide
a
full-time
on-site
community
health
worker
who
will
facilitate
referrals
and
activities
on-site
programming
in
the
areas
of
health
and
wellness,
financial
literacy
and
workforce
development
and
education
and
they're
able
to
do
this
because
they're
their
foundation,
and
they
they
have
lots
of
partners
to
do
this
work
so
really
exciting
if
you'll
go
to
the
next
slide.
For
me,
the
same
applies
here
on
this
noaa
related
to
the
partnership
with
atrium.
R
This
is
the
largest
that
noah
that
you
would
have
done
in
your
history
of
doing
noaa's,
which
is
a
best
practice
across
the
country
that
we
just
talked
about.
This
is
265
units.
The
other
good
thing,
exciting
thing
about
shamrock
gardens
is
that
this
property
has
the
most
affordable
rent
of
any
market
rate
property
in
charlotte
today,
and
so
the
goal
here
is
to
to
preserve
it.
R
What
I
will
also
point
out
here
is
that
this
is
a
this
is
one
of
the
the
this
ask
is
six
million
dollars
from
the
trust
fund,
it's
6.4
from
from
the
choi
foundation
from
the
choice.
One
of
the
reasons
that
ask
is
so
high
is
because
you
have
265
units
that
you
are
trying
to
preserve
here,
but
what
I
would
point
out
is
that
your
cost
per
city
investment
is
22,
22
000,
so
I'm
a
leverage
ratio
of
one
to
three
here
if
you'll
go
to
the
next
slide.
R
For
me
please,
this
is
this
is
home
ownership
they
are
requesting,
and
this
is
a
new,
a
newer
developer
that
we
we're
beginning
to
work
with
urban
trends
real
estate.
This
is
in
district
2,
they're,
requesting
320
000.
The
goal
is
to
create
10,
affordable
home
ownership
units
here
for
households
earning
between
61
and
80
percent
of
the
area,
median
income.
R
If
you'll
go
to
the
next
slide.
For
me,
please
druid
hills
legacy
do
at
homes.
This
is
dream
key.
They
too
want
to
create
home
ownership.
Their
request
is
704,
000
they're,
going
to
reque,
create
22
units,
and
the
good
thing
here
is
that,
on
both
this
home
ownership
opportunity
and
the
one
I
just
spoke
to
you,
the
res-
the
the
homeowners
will
also
be
able
to
qualify
for
the
down
payment
assistance
program
that
we
have.
So
again,
you
are
really
I'm
helping
people
become
homeowners
in
this
city.
R
G
G
I
think
at
some
point
we
need
to
give
the
developer
talk
with
him.
One
last
time
see
where
he's
at,
and
then
we
need
to
make
a
decision
on
not
having
that
money
just
being
frozen
and
not
util,
utilizing
it
so
I'll
I'll.
Take
that
conversation
offline
and
talk
with
the
mayor
and
the
manager
in
reference
to
how
we
move
forward
with
that.
G
So
I'm
patiently
waiting
to
to
kind
of
do
something
different
and
new
and
and
and
even
at
our
task
force
meeting.
Even
mr
winston
suggested
that
how
can
we
do
something
different
with
the
housing
trust
fund
money
to
be
a
lot
more
proactive
and
and
progressive?
And
I'm
I'm
just
kind
of
dying
and
see
what
we
can
do
to
do
that.
G
Lastly,
councilmember
johnson,
I
agree
with
you
in
your
last
statement.
I
cringe
too,
when
charlotte
is
a
national
leader
right,
because
it
demonstrates
how
deep
the
problem
is
nationwide
in
terms
of
affordability-
and
I
think
sometimes
in
charlotte,
where
it's
just
so
hard
on
ourselves-
that
we
can't
sit
back
and
celebrate
what
we
do
right.
G
It
is
a
problem
in
charlotte
that
the
housing,
affordability
and
the
number
of
units
that
we
need
we're
going
to
get
there,
but,
as
you
can
see,
we're
slowly
but
surely
kind
of
chopping
at
this
big
tree
trying
to
get
it
down,
which
is
the
housing
for
those
who
need
it,
but
I
think
sometimes
in
charlotte
we
just
need
to
take
a
a
deep
back,
a
step
back
and
celebrate
what
we're
currently
doing,
because
we're
doing
a
lot
of
things
right.
Lastly,
we
talked
about
the
50
million
dollars
for
the
bond.
G
F
So
great
this,
mr
graham's
appetite
is:
we
can
never
feed
him.
What
I
will
say
we
appreciate
the
challenge.
One
thing
that
I
do
want
to
say:
that's
important
is
that,
unlike
in
previous
cycles,
we
do
have
for
the
first
time
in
some
single
family
homes
as
well
as
pushing
with
the
the
noaa's.
You
know
the
other
thing
I
would
say
just
to
bring
to
everybody's
attention.
Well,
this
is
awesome,
we'll
get
to
january
and
potentially
only
have
nine
million
dollars,
and
so
any
concept
of
whether
50
million
is
enough.
F
R
F
H
R
H
R
That's
right,
if
you
wanted
to
see
what
an
example
and
it
won't
be,
the
same-
the
exact
example.
But
if
you
go
over
to
optimus
park,
I
believe
that
david
weekley
is
building
a
market
rate
product
that
is
similar
to
to
this,
and
those
are
on
the
ground
today
and
they're
much
more
expensive
than
this.
B
I
am,
I
looked
it
up
one
time
because
there's
one
that's
being
built
by
my
house
as
a
duet,
and
it
has
to
do
with
some
type
of
the
ownership
and
how
it's
calculated.
It's
just
a
little
bit
different
than
a
duplex,
but
there
is
a
difference
and
I'm
not
a
realtor
or
a
lawyer,
so
we
need
to
get
from
patrick
or
from
our
real
estate.
Folks,
the
definition
of
a
duet
and-
and
I
joke
about
it-
but
I've
seen
these
all
over
the
city
now
being
called
duets
and
it's
it's.
B
R
B
H
Have
one
final
question,
mr
phipps
yeah
we've
all
heard
of
the
familiar
terms:
market
rate,
housing,
affordable
housing,
but
recently
in
some
of
the
rezonings
that
we've
been
getting
some
of
developers
have
been
coming
up
with
some
new
terms
that
I'm
wondering
are
you
familiar
with?
Have
you
ever
heard
of
attainable
housing
or
approachable
housing.
H
I
just
I
just
want
to
know
what
what
do
those
means
are
they
going
to
be
coming
more
familiar
in
our
vernacular
as
a
when
it
comes
to
housing,
options
or,
or
somebody
just
you
know,
being
reckless
with
these
terms
or
what
you
know,
so
I'm
just
trying
to
get
a
feel
for.
Is
there
a
definition
associated
with
these
attain?
What's
attainable,
housing
mean.
R
B
O
O
I
love
seeing
that
we
are
creating
a
mix
of
housing
types,
a
mix
of
home
ownership
and
rental
that
creating
opportunities
for
people
to
own
the
home,
and
I
love
seeing
the
longer
affordability
periods
on
some
of
the
rental,
but
creating
that
energy
that
generational
wealth
for
people
to
pass
down
to
their
children
and
grandchildren
through
homeownership.
I
think,
is
going
to
continue
to
be
the
way
that
we
can
mitigate
displacement,
mitigate.
O
A
lot
of
the
effects
of
gentrification
as
it
relates
to
the
people
in
our
community
so
very
excited
about
that,
and
especially
having
our
large
largest
noaa
project.
To
date,
I
think,
is
something
we
ought
to
be
very,
very
excited
about,
and
I
am
and
I'm
glad
that
it's
in
an
area
of
district,
one
that
is
increasingly
becoming
more
expensive
to
live
in.
So
just
thank
you
to
everybody
who
continues
to
bring
forward
these
great
opportunities
for.
R
B
D
R
So,
thank
you,
ms
johnson,
for
that.
This
is
exactly
the
last
slide.
You
are
at
the
beginning
stage
right,
and
so
once
you
approve
them,
the
next
steps
are
the
the
it
generally
is
the
short
answer.
Is
it
takes
18
to
24
months
right
before
they're
on
the
ground?
That
is
not
the
noah's,
though
the
noah's
you
are
the
the
upgrades.
Will
it
will
begin
as
soon
as
the
the
funding
is
approved
and
they
get
through
the
closing
process
for
the
ones
that
are
not
going
through.
R
The
lie
tech
process,
which
you
all
talked
to
us
about
several
cycles
ago,
including
those
they
can
go
faster,
but
the
ones
that
are
going
through
the
state
they
will
submit
their
approvals
to
the
state
they'll
they
will.
The
state
will
approve
they'll,
get
their
closings
they'll,
begin
this
design
and
permitting
and
then
we'll
deliver
the
units.
So
those
are
the
ones
that
are
particularly
the
18
to
24
months.
Some
of
the
others
are
go
sooner
than
that.
D
Do
we
have
any
plans
that
you
know
of
this,
and
this
is
outside
of
this
discussion
and
do
we
have
any
plans
for
the
the
individuals
who
are
facing
eviction?
We
know
that
we're
going
to
have
an
influx
of.
I
think
the
number
was
23
000
evictions.
Is
there
any
consideration
or
that
the
city
do
we
have
a
plan
or
anything
for
those
individuals?
So
we
avoid
another
tent
city.
R
Yeah
so
so
miss
johnson.
You
may
recall
that
we
in
preparation
for
what
I
think
we
believed
was
going
to
be
an
august
31st
eviction.
We
sent
you
all
a
note
to
talk
about
the
plan
right
and
so,
in
short,
the
plan
that
the
city
has
is.
We
continue
to
collaborate
and
partner
with
our
with
our
colleagues
in
crc,
so
that
they
can
get
information
out
about
our
mediation
services.
We
have.
R
R
K
K
K
R
So
so,
no
ma'am
so
remember
we
were
here
in
in
april.
I
believe
it
was.
You
approved
the
12
million
plus
the
three
plus
the
two,
so
that's
15
16
17.,
but
you
approve
those.
So
that's
where
you
started.
What
I'm
suggesting
to
you.
The
37
is
where
we
are
starting
today
and
so
should
you
approve
all
the
ones
I
just
presented
to
you?
You
will
have
a
balance
of
9
million.
R
L
Thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much
so,
mr
jones,
I
know
he
usually
doesn't
like
to
do
this,
but
he
kind
of
put
to
me
as
a
bit
of
a
bomb
on
on
the
table
in
in
terms
of
things
we
this
body
should
consider.
We
work
best
with
our
real
wheelhouse
is,
is
thinking
about
policy
level
decisions
and
and
creating
policy
to
automate
practices
and
future
decisions.
L
This
nine
million
dollars
that
is
left
over
potentially
not
being
enough
to
kind
of
go
full
full
full
fledge
on
the
nine
percent
deals
that
that
would
come
next
summer.
Also,
understanding
that
you
know
it's
great,
that
we
have
so
many
different
housing
products
that
we're
potentially
going
to
be
supporting
with
gap
financing.
That
is
exciting,
but
they
present
opportunity
costs
right
that
we're
getting
more
expensive
investments,
for
instance
in
in
in
district
7
for
40
years,
that's
exciting.
L
But
when
I
see
these
numbers
I
I
don't
see
how
we
can
right
now
make
an
informed
decision
from
again
from
a
policy
standpoint
on
the
best
way
to
administer
these
funds.
Is
it
to
to
to
to
to
spend
it
like
this,
or
are
we
gonna
handicap
ourselves
from
housing,
more
people
when
these
nine
percent
deals
come
through
next
summer?
So
I
I'd
like
to
see:
is
there
a
way
that
we
can
quantify
as
well
as
consider
the
opportunity
costs
of
the
way
we
are
changing?
L
The
way
we
invest
in
in
this
in
in
terms
of
again
are:
are
we
able
to
affect
the
affordable
housing
crisis
in
in
our
city
to
the
highest
and
best
case
scenario?
So
my
question
would
be:
can
we
get
that
kind
of
immediate
opportunity
cost
data
before
we
make
our
decision?
I
think
it
was
that
the
date
was
on
september
27th
and
also
again,
I
think
we
should
put
on
the
table
as
where
we
go
into
the
next
budget
process
as
we
consider
in
great
neighborhoods.
L
This
is
an
important
policy
question
that
we
have
to
consider
if,
if
we're
going
to
start
investing
in
home
ownership
and
and
and
spending
more
on
on
on
on
affordable
housing
in
district
six
and
seven
for
instance,
what
is
what
do
we
need
to
be
considering
if
50
million
dollars
is,
is
not
enough?
There's
a
lot
of
work
that
went
into
getting
us
to
this
point.
L
F
So
I
may
remember
the
council,
since
I
opened
up
the
door
pam
I'll,
try
to
step
through
it,
so
councilman
winston.
I
think
there
are
a
couple
things
that
are
going
on.
A
couple
of
great
things
are
going
on.
We
talked
during
this
last
budget
process
and
I
remember
we
talked
about
a
great
deal
about
tools
in
the
toolbox
right
anti-displacement.
F
So
there
is-
and
these
are
just
some
numbers-
there's
a
couple
million
dollars.
That's
left
over
from
what
we
talked
about
housing
from
the
fy
20
budget,
there's
seven
million
dollars
to
set
aside
in
the
current
budget
and
then,
as
we
start
to
talk
about
some
of
the
oprah
funds,
we
thought
there's
an
opportunity
to
take
a
big
chunk
of
that
and
use
it
in
the
space.
So
I
would
say,
there's
an
opportunity
to,
I
guess,
create
a
gap
between
now
and
the
next
bond
cycle.
L
So
so
what
I'm?
What
I'm
hearing
is
you
saying
that
there
will
be
very
minimal
opportunity
costs
in
the
immediate
for
our
decision?
If
we
decide
to
approve
all
all
of
this,
there
will
be
a
minimal
impact
on
our
ability
to
deal
with
the
the
the
nine
percent
deals
that
are
potentially
going
to
come
through
to
maximize,
because
those
nine
percent
deals
are
the
ones
that
really
do
provide
the
most
housing
units
per
dollar
spent.
There's
we
should
be
good
is
that
is.
F
That
what
you're
saying
I'll
start
off
by
saying
that
in
our
last
payment-
but
I
think
we
typically
have
so
many
of
the
nine
percent
that
are
afforded
to
charlotte
during
that
january
time
frame
and
the
question
that
I'll
throw
out.
You
know
it's
nine
million
dollars
enough
for
the
nine
percent.
Maybe
so,
maybe
not
pam's,
it
seems
like
that's,
maybe
so,
but
then
what
I'm
saying
is
that
what
you're
doing
right
now,
these
four
percents
and
some
of
the
more
innovative
stuff?
F
You
may
not
have
any
funds
for
that
through
the
housing
trust
fund.
But
what
I'm
also
saying
is
that
you
have
some
capacity
within
the
budget
that
there
and
your
offer
funds
that
potentially
you
could
have
20
million
dollars
that
could
build
a
bridge
until
the
next
bond
cycle,
which
the
placeholder
right
now
is
another
50
million
dollars.
F
R
That's
exactly
right,
mr
jones,
and
I
want
to
be
very
clear
and
I
think
what
you're
alluding
to
is
for
the
nine
percent.
With
nine
percent
I
mean
for
the
nine
percent.
We
only
do
it
once
a
year.
9
million
will
get
us
there
because
we're
only
going
to
get
so
many.
Our
fair
share,
mr
jones,
everything
else.
He
said
ditto.
L
Okay,
so
so
that
that
takes
care
of
the
immediate
to
well
something
that
we
should
consider
keep
an
eye
on.
But
if
what
I'm
hearing
is
that
immediately,
those
opportunity
costs
are
going
to
be
minimal,
but
I
would
hope
that
these
arpa
funds
or
funds
like
opera
funds
are
not
around
for
for
a
very
long
in
the
future
over
the
next
decade,
because
that
would
mean
that
this
pandemic
would
persist
for
much
longer
than
it
than
it
should.
So.
L
Do
the
hard
work
to
consider
you
know
how
do
we
fund
these
things
moving
forward,
knowing
that
it
is
not,
we
don't
have
sufficient
housing
trust
fund
dollars
to
to
maintain
the
type
of
solutions
that
we
want
and
that
are
needed
to
support
to
support
our
house,
our
affordable
housing
crisis
in
the
city
of
charlotte.
Thank
you.
B
Thank
you,
mr
winston,
for
pointing
out
the
connections
between
these
decisions
tonight
and
where
we
go
forward.
I
think
it's
proven
that
we
can.
This
is
a
bucket
that
we
can
fill
and
it's
just
a
matter
of
how
full
do
we
want
it
and
that's
a
decision
that
we'll
be
doing
in
the
future.
So
thank
you
so
with
that
we
do
have
a
closed
session
plan,
we're
going
to
do
that
at
the
end
of
the
meeting
and
go
ahead
and
do
a
couple
of
things
in
advance.
B
But
I
wanted
to
say
before
the
meeting-
and
I
think
I've
spoken
with
everyone-
there
were
nominations
planned
for
three
committees
that
the
council
has
recommended
to
begin
new.
These
are
new
committees,
their
nominations
to
the
arts
and
cultural
advisory
board,
nominations
for
the
charlotte,
equitable
development,
commission
and
nominations
to
charlotte
neighborhood,
equity
and
stabilization
commission,
and
it's
called
charlotte's
nest
because
we
have
been
so
fortunate
to
have
so
many
people
apply
for
these
positions.
B
I
thought
it
might
be
best
that
we
take
a
little
bit
more
time
to
review
and
understand
who
is
applying
and
also
to
clarify
some
of
the
procedures
that
we
have
around
this
process.
And
so
what
I'd
like
to
do
first
is
say
that
I
would
like
to
have
this
deferred
until
the
october
fourth
strategy
session
for
a
decision.
B
But
in
the
meantime,
I'd
like
to
ask
the
clerk
to
state
the
process
that
we
have,
since
we've
gotten
nominations
advertised
for
nominations
and
we've
received
nominations
who
can
be
nominated
and
if
there's
any
door
open
for
additional
nominations.
I'd
like
to
clerk
to
address
that
and
I'd
like
the
city
attorney
to
do,
which
applies
to
all
of
the
commissions,
but
I'd
like
the
city
attorney
to
also
address
those
that
are
specific
to
the
arts
and
cultural
advisory
committee.
So
miss
kelly.
C
I
would
note
that
we
received
some
applications
after
that
august
27th
deadline,
and
so
those
applications
were
not
included
among
the
ones
that
you
received
the
process
for
nominating
anyone
that
you
do
not
receive
an
application
for.
In
accordance
with
the
resolution
that
council
approved
on
boards
and
commissions,
you
can
still
nominate
someone
that
we
don't
have
an
application,
for.
There
isn't
always
an
opportunity
to
write
in
that
individual's
name.
B
And
you
said
you:
it
meant
each
count:
a
council
member,
not
global,
you,
not
the
person,
but
council
members
have
the
ability
to
nominate
from
the
floor,
and
I
think
that
that
would
be
good
to
do
by
a
certain
deadline.
If
we
decide
to
do
if
anyone
has
a
nomination
like
that,
and
I
would
suggest
that
that
be
october,
the
20th,
which
is
next
week
that
you
get
the
information
to
is
that
september
october.
Sorry
september,
20th
by
next
week.
But
I,
mr
bakari
and
mayor
pro
tem,
have
a
question.
Ms
kelly.
S
We
talked
about
it
in
the
hallway
earlier
I
was
always
as
we
were
designing
this
kind
of
approach
out
a
big
believer
that
the
new
arts
and
culture
commissioner
role
reporting
to
the
city
manager
was
the
the
critical
path
of
of
how
this
was
going
to
evolve,
to
be
a
great
success
or
a
failure,
and
that
the
right
person
being
selected,
which
you've
made
an
excellent
choice,
the
right
the
right
tools,
resources
and
infrastructure
being
put
around
them.
But
then
this
advisory
board
being
a
really
critical
part.
So
I'm
just
a
really
big
believer.
S
That
person
may
look
at
all
these
candidates
and
decide
to
interview
them
and
go
through
all
that
and
list
out
for
us
what
she
needs
in
order
to
be
successful
given
to
fill
gaps
where
maybe
her
expertise
isn't
as
strong
as
some
other.
So
I'm
just
a
long
story
short
a
big
believer
in
that
particular
board.
It
being
something
that
we
that
we
wait
until
she
is
fully
on
board,
has
a
chance
to
weigh
in
and
tell
us
what
she'd
like
and
then
I
think
on
the
other
ones
I
mean.
S
F
Yeah,
thank
you
councilmember
bakari,
so
freya
did
start
today
and
the
conversation
we
had
last
week.
She
did
mention
how
she
thought
she
could
be
helpful
in
these
selections.
So
I
you
have
no
pushback
for
me
in
terms
of
having
insight
and
as
we
discussed
it's,
I
think
it's
what
you've
alluded
to
the
types
of
members
on
a
board
that
would
be
beneficial.
F
E
Thank
you
so
two
things
I'll
just
address
that
point.
First,
I
think
what
we
could
do
is
organize
a
ad
hoc
committee
meeting
of
our
arts
and
science
ad
hoc
council
and
have
priya
come
and
introduce
herself
and
just
talk
about
her
experience,
doing
this
in
other
cities
or
with
other
cities,
and
that
would
help
inform
us.
E
So
I
think
that's
a
great
idea
before
we
do
make
those
final
selections,
so
I
will
get
with
her
and
then
with
you
all
and
of
course
all
council
members
are
welcome
to
to
listen
in
on
that
meeting
or
or
attend
it
if
it's
in
person
and
then.
Secondly,
madam
clerk,
the
you
had
mentioned
that
some
applications
did
come
in
after
the
deadline,
and
I
know
a
few
folks,
or
at
least
one
thought
it
came
in
before
so.
E
C
E
I
B
T
B
Why
don't
we
have
the
city
attorney
address
the
necessary
requirements
for
members
on
the
arts
and
culture
advisory
committee
and
the
why
there
are
requirements?
This
isn't
arbitrary.
There
is
a
rationale
because
of
the
work
that
they're
doing
so,
mr
baker,
would
you
go
through
the
rationale
and
the
guidelines
and,
and
then
we'll,
mr
winston,
are
you?
Okay
with
that?
M
Can
can
you
hear
me
now
my
green
light's
on
okay,
great
sorry
about
that,
so
with
this
particular
board,
the
way
that
it's
set
up
is
that
they're
actually
making
funding
decisions.
This
is
in
a
situation
where
they're
making
a
recommendation
to
the
council
who's,
making
the
funding
decisions
they're,
making
the
fundament
the
funding
decisions
themselves
and
the
concerns
that
we
had
is
similar
to
how
we
would
be
concerned.
M
If
council
was
making
funding
decisions
to
fund
one
of
your
own
individual
companies
or
or
projects
is
to
is
to
disassociate
the
the
funders
from
the
people
that
are
soliciting
the
funds.
So
with
this
particular
board,
we've
got
a
a
few
things
that
we're
going
to
require
of
them.
Obviously,
to
get
a
a
look
at
our
ethics
policy
that
we've
that
we've
produced
for
them.
I
I
think
that
that
answers
most
of
my
question,
I
I'm
so
what
I'm
hearing
and
and
please
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong
on
this,
mr
city
attorney,
I
what
I'm
hearing
is
that
is
that
they're
still
eligible
to
sit
on
the
board.
They
would
just
need
to
recuse
themselves
from
decisions
that
could
be
considered
conflicts.
M
M
I
I
guess
my
confusion
lies
in
the
fact
that
even
us
as
council
members
right,
I
mean
we
fill
out
the
form
that
you
would
mention.
Mr
city
attorney
and
we're
asked
to
recuse
ourselves
from
those
particular.
You
know
pars
those
particular
decisions
out,
but
that
doesn't
prevent
us
from
from
being
a
part
of
the
council
making
decisions
on
on
other
matters.
So
I'm
just
a
bit
confused
by
that
and
would
love
to
get
some
more
information
to
clarify
that.
I
I
M
I
mean
I
don't
know
that
we've
given
it
that
much
thought
in
terms
of
where
we
are
that's
just
been
in
between
my
office
and
the
administration.
Those
were
the
our
recommendations
in
terms
of
avoiding
the
the
the
public's
you
know
losing
the
public's
confidence
in
this
board
by
by
essentially
having
people
making
their
own
decisions
and
having
a
close-knit
group
of
individuals
that
are
also
that
are
part
of
the
decision-making
process
and
receiving
funds,
and
those
have
been
our
recommendations.
I
I'd
be
interested
in
continuing
the
conversation,
because
I
I
guess
I
would
assume
that
there
would
be
decisions
that
would
be
made.
That
would
you
know,
stand
alone
from
just
maybe
something
where
someone
might
be
involved
and
could
recuse
themselves,
and
I
would
just
want
some
further
clarification
on
that
and
maybe
council
member
winston.
B
F
Okay,
so
thank
you
and
I
think,
having
a
priya
come
in
if
I
hadn't
said
today
is
the
first
day
and
provide
some
input
is
important
too.
The
other
thing
that
I'd
like
all
of
us
to
remember
is
that
there
will
be
a
cultural
plan.
That's
a
part
of
this
process
too
that
talks
about
how
money
will
come
in
and
how
money
will
be
distributed.
F
There
are
so
many
opportunities
for
people
in
this
community
to
be
engaged
in
the
process.
It's
not
necessarily
limited
to
six
appointments.
So,
as
we
looked
at
different
models,
there
could
be
groups
that
also
inform
what
we're
doing
as
opposed
to
just
these
18
individuals.
So
I
just
wanted
to
put
that
out.
There
also.
B
D
B
Well,
I
think
that
if
the
ad
hoc
committee
is
going
to
meet
to
talk
about
some
things,
that
could
be
one
of
those
ideas
that
they
would
have
to
see,
because
I
think
that
what
before
it
would
be,
if
it's
as
a
qualification,
they
would
have
to
sign
before
they
decided
to
come
and
and
or
to
join
the
board.
And
it's
not
that
you
can't
join
it's
just
that.
You
agree
that
you
would
make
that
decision
and
you
could
decide
your
it's
a
personal
decision
for
the
individual.
B
So
I
believe
it
was
optional
on
the
form
to
write
down
your
what
you
did
or
whether
you
were
affiliated
with
an
art.
Is
that
correct?
So
there
is
some
awareness
that,
as
the
council's
making
their
decision-
and
I
think
why
would
you
go
to
committee
that
they
would
have
the
ability
to
determine
how
best
to
inform
that
for
people
that
are
interested
as
well,
but
I
think
website
all
of
that's
a
good
idea,
just
making
sure
that
we
we've
had
122
applicants.
I
believe
so,
ms
johnson
did
you
have?
D
So
if
patrick,
maybe
can
send
us
a
list
or
stephanie
or
someone
can
send
us
a
list
of
applicants
who
might
have
a,
I
guess,
a
conflict
of
interest
so
that
we
would
would
know
in
our
consideration.
I
think
that
that
would
be
fair
for
us,
so
that
if
there
is
someone
that
may
not
be
able
to
serve,
then
we
could.
We
would
know
that
when
we're
making
our
selection,
no,
they
would.
B
D
D
E
Mayor
pro
tem,
thank
you.
So
first
thing
I
was
going
to
say
to
respond
to
matt
is
what
mark.
What
mr
jones
said
is
that
most
cities
that
have
gone
through
this
have
had
affinity
groups
that
have
come
and
presented
to
the
board
so,
and
it
could
be
that
some
folks
just
didn't
want
to
commit
for
three
years
to
do
this
board.
They
want
to
give
feedback
and
I
think
priya
will
I'm
sure
that'll
be
you
know.
E
A
specialty
of
hers
is
how
to
engage
those
folks
in
the
conversation
and
not
exclude
them,
but
I'm
pretty
sure
in
the
application
process.
They
knew
that
this
was
a
choice
because
everyone
I
spoke
to
our
city
clerk
is
nodding.
Yes,
and
there
is
a
column
on
there
that
says.
Are
you
a
staff,
member
of
an
organization
that
could
get
funding
and
and
a
lot
of
them
did
say?
Yes,
the
ones
that
I
called
and
spoke
to?
They
were
aware
of
it.
Some
said
I
know,
but
I
want
to
participate.
E
It's
important
and
a
couple
did
say
you
know,
I'm
not
I'm
going
to
back
out,
I'm
not
going
to
do
it.
So
I
do
think
this
gives
us
time
just
to
clarify
it.
So
people
know
while
at
the
same
time
being
really
crystal
clear.
We
want
to
give
as
many
people
the
opportunities
possible
to
interact
with
this
committee
and
be
able
to
give
feedback
on
it.
E
I
think
the
key
difference
with
this
is
that
they
will
be
deciding
how
the
fund
will
be
spent,
so
they're
they're
going
to
be
also
drawing
up
the
guidelines,
whereas
when
we
get
asked
for
financial
to
make
financial
decisions,
the
program's
already
been
established.
These
folks
are
going
to
be
creating
the
program,
and
so
I
think
we
want
to
be
as
above
board
and
transparent
as
possible
that
nobody
in
there
is
going
to
have
the
ability
to
influence
it
for
their
own
organization,
but
now
they're
board
members.
E
D
L
M
L
L
If
that
makes
sense,
so
I'm
wondering,
if
there's
any
way
for
the
city
attorney
and
the
city
clerk,
to
not
wait
for
applicants
to
reach
out
to
them,
but
to
re,
be
proactive
in
reaching
out
to
those
to
those
folks
to
learn
more
about
their
situation,
how
they
operate,
how
they
do
their
business
and
give
them
some
advice
about
the
wisdom
of
them.
Serving
on
this
board.
B
J
M
Now
it's
been
my
understanding.
The
concern
that
I
have
had
is
is
that
an
individual
who's
making
a
funding
decision
is
benefiting
from
that
funding
decision.
So
I
don't
know
that
we
ever
parsed
out
the
specifics
of
a
a
non-compensated
board,
member
sort
of
a
representative
of
other
group
versus
a
paid
staff
person
whose
salary
will
will
be
part
and
parcel
compensated
through
this
process.
M
I
am
happy
to
again
work
with
city
manager
and
the
city
attorney
on
the
city
city
clerk
on
on
this
particular
matter,
but
that's
been
that's
been
sort
of
my
recommendation
and
keep
in
mind
I'm
not
the
one
who's
who's
saying.
This
is
how
it's
going
to
be.
It's
just
a
recommendation
to
avoid
what
what
I
think
would
be
a
potential
appearance
of
impropriety
that
could
be
perceived
in
this
process.
J
For
example,
if
there
was
a
vote
about
funding
for
an
entity
of
which
I,
as
council
member,
I'm
already
a
board
member.
I
would
recuse
myself
from
the
vote
and
even
then
there
could
be
a
challenge
as
to
whether
I
was
able
to
recuse
myself
from
the
vote
under
state
law.
Even
that
I
don't
have
a
financial
interest,
and
I
don't,
I
think
you
know
what
I
mean,
mr
baker.
J
So
I
hope
you'll
study,
that
a
little
further
and
and
that
we
can
get
some
clarity
around
that.
I
don't
know
how
many
instances
there
are
of
people
who
are
memories
of
boards,
but
the
truth
is
that
members
of
this
community
could
easily
find
themselves
being
asked
to
join
boards,
while
they're
a
member
of
this
group.
So
they
we
need
to
be
crystal
clear
about
what
they
can
and
can't
do.
While
they're
a
member
of
this
group.
B
Mr
jake,
mr
drake,
since
you
used
me
as
a
and
as
an
example,
I
would
be
eligible
to
be
on
the
arts
board,
because
I
would
not
be
getting
compensation
for
my
salary.
This
is
a
different
connection,
so,
just
like,
I
serve
on
the
nevada
board.
It's
not
it's
a
not
for
profit,
it's
not
compensation,
so
I
would
be
able
to
serve
on
the
arts
board.
The
the
discussion
was
narrowly
around.
B
If
you
are
a
staff
member
and
you
have
funding
from
the
city
that
would
go
to
the
organization
that
would
be
a
part
of
their
operating
budget.
So
it's
not
the
board
members
that
was
never
included
in
this
discussion.
It
was
about
whether
or
not
as
a
result
of
a
decision
to
fund
it
would
be
as
a
staff
member
where
there
would
be
a
financial
connection,
but
I
think
we're
getting
into
the
weeds
a
lot
of
it,
and
I
think
that
if
everyone
is
okay,
but
I
still
have
miss
watlington
to
call.
J
Yes,
so
for
one,
the
suggestion
that
there
might
be
a
conflict
issue
would
definitely
attach
to
a
board
member.
So
if
that,
if
your
intention
is
exactly
what
the
city
attorney
intends,
then
I
would
like
to
get
clear
direction
on
that.
The
other
thing
mayor
else
I'd
suggested
you
before
a
procedural
idea.
U
U
So
that
said,
I
just
want
to
say
for
my
colleagues
that
I'm
not
necessarily
opposed
to
someone
who's
getting
funding
sitting
on
the
board.
If
it
is
funding
for
programs,
for
instance,
it
doesn't
that
doesn't
hit
their
operating
budget,
and
so
I
just
I'd
like
to
see
some
more
options
in
terms
of
ways
that
we
can
meet
the
intent
without
creating
a
situation
where
we're
losing
a
key
voice
at
the
table,
because
those
organizations
that
are
in
this
in
this
community
and
actually
can
tell
us
this
is
how
we
can
best
fund
these
things.
U
K
K
B
This
board
does
not
recommend
fun.
The
arts
and
culture
board
would
not
recommend
funding,
they
would
actually
award
funding
and
my
understanding
would
be
from
what
I
recall
the
only
boards
that
we
have
that
have
the
ability
to
take
local
tax
dollars
to
spend
are
those
that
are
have
legislative
authority
crva,
for
an
example
would
be
one
of
those
they
have
the
ability
to
have
the
hospitality
taxes
laid
out
in
legislation
and
legally
to
do
that.
But
I
think
the
question
here
is
not
that
they
are
recommending,
because
the
council
doesn't
approve
the
the
pers.
B
B
B
F
K
I
agree,
mr
jones.
A
lot
of
these
questions
are
going
to
take
some
time
and
more
work
needs
to
be
done,
and
that
is
clear,
but
I'm
also
interested
in
hearing
from
our
city
clerk
and
mr
jones,
you,
if
there
are
any
other
boards
and
commissions
that
you
have
to
make
or
are
making
grand
decisions
that
we
now
consider,
because
this
is
the
process
that
we
need
to
set
up
for
all
boards
moving
forward.
K
If
there
is
a
potential
conflict
of
interest,
also,
I'm
interested
in
at
least
knowing
what
the
nominations
are
at
this
point.
So
madame
clark,
if
you
could
also
share
those
with
us
after
the
meeting
and
lastly,
I
think
mr
winston
and
miss
johnson
had
discussed
this
earlier
or
had
raised
this,
where
I'm
interested
in
hearing
us
being
more
proactive
and
getting
commitment.
K
A
F
B
B
H
H
S
O
O
I
B
Miss
watlington,
yes
mayor
pro
tem,
yes,
so
that
passes
so
we'll
make
sure
that
you
get
all
those
questions
and
get
the
advice
of
the
right
team
of
people.
Ms
sajmira,
I
think
that
what
we
were
asking
is
a
deferral
for
the
items.
Number,
the
nominations
for
the
arts
and
cultural
board;
nominations
for
the
equitable
development
commission
and
nominations
for
the
charlotte's
nests
until
next,
the
strategy
session
on
october,
the
fourth
that
will
allow
the
ad
hoc
committee
to
do
this.
So
is
there
any
objection
to
deferring
these
items
until
october?
The
4th.
B
Objections
so
with
that,
then
we'll
defer
these
items
to
october
the
4th
and
have
the
ad
hoc
committee
do
more
additional
work.
Okay,
so
now
we
can
go
back
to
our
agenda,
those
who
are
watching
us.
Sometimes
it
just
takes
a
moment
to
get
it
all
done
and
said,
but
we
are
moving
forward
on
our
next
item
on
our
public
on
our
agenda
and
it
is
we're

And
with
this
proclamation
I
asked
federico
rios
who
is
the
head
of
our
diversity,
inclusion
and
immigrant
community
to
your
go
to
the
podium.
If
you'd
like
to
say
something,
and
just
give
us
some
comments
about
why
this
is
important
and
know
that
we
will
provide
this
to
your
office,
both
in
spanish
form,
as
well
as
english,.
W
W
Our
last
census
count
showed
that
we
are
hyper
growth
community
for
latino
population
in
the
in
the
us,
and
so
we
recognize
those
individuals
that
enrich
in
and
make
our
community
better
by
their
very
presence,
their
contributions
on
the
business,
edu,
education
and
civic
participation,
portions
of
our
community,
and
so
we're
grateful
to
the
large
latino
community,
which
I
am
incredibly
proud
to
represent.
Today.
B
Thank
you
so
much,
mr
rios,
I
have
to
say
from
the
work
that
was
done
by
this
council
on
the
immigration
issues
and
the
community.
You
guys
are
doing
a
fantastic
job
carrying
that
mission
and
and
agenda
forward.
So
thank
you
very
much.
We'll
get
you
a
copy
of
the
official
proclamation
so
that
you
may
present
it
to
whomever,
for
you
would
suggest.
Okay
all
right,
so
we
now
are
going
to
have
council
member
newton.
Do
a
proclamation
on
suicide
prevention
month.
Mr
newton
thank.
I
You,
madam
mayor,
this
past
friday,
was
world
suicide
prevention
day,
and
I
am
very
honored
to
deliver
this
proclamation
tonight.
I
did
want
to
so
preliminarily.
I
did
want
to
acknowledge
fonda
bryant,
who
is
not
only
the
preeminent
suicide
awareness
and
prevention
advocate
here
in
charlotte,
but
but
the
preeminent
suicide
prevention
and
awareness
advocate
throughout
the
country.
I
That
was
because
of
her
and
most
recently,
she's
also
been
involved
working
with
james
brown,
not
the
godfather
soul,
but
the
james
brown
who,
who
is
on
the
host
of
fox
nfl
sunday
in
the
nfl
on
cbs
she's,
been
working
with
him
on
some
some
national
public
service
announcements
to
address
this
issue
as
well.
She
has
simply
put
a
remarkable
woman
and
advocate
tonight's
proclamation
is
a
reflection
of
her
tireless
work
on
this,
and
I
just
wanted
to
take
that
moment
to
to
thank
her
before
moving
forward.
I
So
without
further
ado.
The
proclamation,
whereas
suicide
is
the
10th
leading
cause
of
death
in
the
united
states
and
the
second
leading
cause
of
death
among
individuals
between
the
ages
of
10
and
34,
an
increase
of
35.2
percent
since
1999,
and
whereas
in
the
united
states,
one
person
dies
by
suicide.
B
F
You
mayor
members
of
council
I'll,
be
brief,
so
I
believe
that
you're,
your
desk
there's
a
30-day
memo
and
what
we
have
for
september
27th
is
a
safe
charlotte
update.
We
believe
it
will
be
a
robust
update
that
is
about
a
year
since
the
safe
charlotte
plan
went
into
place.
We
talked
about
this
at
the
previous
meeting
to
give
you
an
arpa
update
as
well
as
a
closed
session
as
necessary
at
the
strategy
session.
F
We
will
add
the
nominations
for
the
three
groups
that
we
talked
about
tonight
with
that
also
there's
a
vision,
zero
update
and
then
on
october
11th.
We
would
have,
as
we
had
mentioned
earlier,
coming
back
monthly
with
an
update
on
the
udo
and
charlotte
future
2040,
and
I
guess
we
had
a
little
bit
of
a
glitch
on
the
managers
report
which
states
the
picasso
updates
I'll.
F
Take
that
glitch
to
give
you
a
very
quick
update,
so
it's
great
to
have
priya
sakara
on
board,
as
our
arts
and
culture
officer
she
began
today
virtually,
but
she
and
our
family
are
well
on
the
way
to
coming
here
to
charlotte
and
one
of
the
things
that
that's
happening.
One
of
the
great
things
is
there's
a
lot
of
collaboration
between
the
city
and
the
county,
and
you
saw
that
tonight
with
the
housing
and
homeless
2025
plan,
the
things
we're
trying
to
do
with
opera
funds
of
the
violence
interrupter
program,
even
memorial
stadium.
F
It's
said
to
have
a
very
limited,
u.s
tour
and
we
will
have
todd
herrmann.
The
president
and
ceo
of
the
museum
of
art
come
to
present
both
to
the
council,
as
well
as
to
the
county
board
of
commissioners,
but
I
will
say
that
we're
pretty
excited
about
this
and
dina
and
I
county
manager
have
been
discussing
there
is
an
ask
and
that
they
ask
is
a
half
a
million
dollars
between
the
city
and
the
county
in
order
to
secure
this
very
limited
and
special
exhibit.
S
F
I
would
say
I'm
sorry,
I
would
say
that
this
one
is
is
very
different
and
I
don't
want
to
get
out
in
front
of
todd
on
this
one
when
I
say
very
limited
three
cities
in
the
united
states
and
this
would
be
the
kickoff.
So
this
is
something
super
special
that
with
public
investment,
we
believe
we
can
pull
it
off.
S
I
just
validate
because
the
the
van
gogh
exhibit
is
very
exclusive
as
well.
I
mean
that
that's
charlotte
is
one
of
the
the
very
few
that
ended
up
getting
that.
So
I
just
if
I
like
this
path,
I
like
charlotte,
having
these
things.
I
just
think
that
we
have
to
set
the
right
tone
for
you
know
if
we
can
get
one
in
one
way.
What
can
we
learn
from
that
so
that
we
don't
end
up
subsidizing?
F
U
Just
as
a
follow-up
to
what
you
were
saying,
that's
kind
of
what
I'm
wanting
to
understand
is
what
is
the
roi
for
the
public,
so
I'd
like
to
see
that
a
little
bit
more
hashed
out
to
have
an
understanding
of
if
I'm
assuming,
we
would
be
putting
up
a
quarter
million
if
we're
if
we
in
the
county
are
both
responsible
for
a
total
of
500
000.
So
I'd
just
like
to
understand
what
is
the
what's
the
return
on
investment
for
the
public
sure
I.
B
B
So
I
hope
that
there
is
a
rationale:
that's
a
return
on
the
investment
that
really
is
community
engagement,
especially
around
education,
for
our
kids
and
participation
for
our
center
city
and
visitor
nights
and
rooms,
and
things
like
that
because
that
exhibit
king
tut
was
here
for
a
month
and
if
you
couldn't
get
on
randolph
road
at
the
time
and
the
idea
of
closing
a
street
for
a
parade
just
to
celebrate
an
art
exhibit,
I
think,
is
pretty
cool,
even
if
it's
picasso.
So
okay,
mayor,
protem,.
E
The
van
gogh
is
something
that
can
be
replicated
in
other
cities,
and
the
blumenthal
had
to
make
a
big
investment
in
that,
and
they
can
the
mint
museum.
These
are
actual
picassos
they're
originals,
the
insurance
is
completely
different,
and
so
it
is
a
different
model
when
it
comes
to
an
arts
exhibit,
and
I
hope
that
he'll
you'll
be
able
to
explain
that
to
us
a
little
bit
better
as
to
why
they
would
look
for
that.
E
B
P
B
Okay:
let's
go
on
to
the
next
item
on
our
agenda.
Our
next
item,
mr
jones,
do
you
have
anything
else
all
right?
Let's
go
to
item
12
except
a
grant
in
the
amount
of
40
000

thousand
from
the
cities
for
financial
empowerment

and

Item
16
is
adopt
a
resolution
ratifying
the
an
interlocal
agreement
with
the
university
of
north
carolina
at
charlotte,
now
known
as
charlotte,
to
extend
the
law
enforcement
authority
of
the
university
of
north
carolina
at
charlotte
campus
police.
H
B
N
M
X
Madam
mayor
members
of
council,
I'm
major
brian
foley,
with
charlotte
mecklenburg
police,
north
patrol
bureau,
so
just
to
address
mr
phipps
question
the
territorial
jurisdiction.
There
is
a
map
that
should
be
an
attachment
to
what
you
have.
Generally,
we
look
at
about
a
radius
of
about
a
mile
outside
their
territorial
jurisdiction.
X
What
this
does
and
again
this
is
not
a
new
agreement.
This
is
a
renewal,
an
existing
agreement.
That's
been
in
place
for
15
years,
it's
generally
updated
to
provide
the
new
chancellor's
name.
Also,
chief
jennings
is
on
this
document
again.
The
purpose
of
this
is
to
allow
uncc
police
to
assess
cnpd
in
certain
specific
instances
when
we
respond
to
or
dealing
with
situations
with,
students
that
are
off
campus
generally
in
off-campus
housing.
X
That's
the
biggest
part
of
this
whole
agreement
is
to
make
sure
that
we're
managing
that
well,
so
that
when
students
are
involved
in
the
situation,
for
example,
where
an
offense
occurs
and
a
law
is
broken,
uncc
police
can
come
and
assist
cnpd
with
that
generally.
That
gives
us
a
another
tool
in
our
toolbox.
X
If
you
will,
because
uncc
police
are
about
allowed
and
available
to
enforce
campus
code
of
conduct
violations
so
oftentimes,
if
an
officer
is
going
to
issue
a
citation
for
something
related
to,
for
example,
a
drug
offense
or
an
assault
that
also
violates
the
campus
code
of
rules,
and
so
those
students
can
be
expelled
up
to
expellement.
For
that.
So
it's
very
helpful
for
us.
We've
had
a
great
working
relationship
with
chief
baker
with
uncc
police
and
also
the
administration
of
uncc.

Miss
watlington,
yes,
mayor
pro-tem,
yes,
all
right
with
that
tonight,
the
council
is
making
appointments
to
boards
and
commissions
the
council
members
vote
by
ballot
and
submit
their
balance
to
the
clerk
earlier
today
and
any
nominee
receiving
six
or
more
votes
is
automatically
appointed.
If
no
nominee
receives
six
votes
or
at
least
six
votes,
a
runoff
is
necessary
and
the
council
vote
will
be
asked
to
vote,
determine
the
highest
vote
getter.
That
person
will
be
appointed
to
the
board.
All
appointments
will
be
recorded
in
the
official
minutes
of
this
meeting.
C
Yes,
mayor
council
for
the
community
relations
committee,
anthony
foreman,
received
seven
seven
votes
and
for
the
waste
management
advisory
board.
We
will
bring
that
back
to
you
at
the
next
meeting.
There
is
a
3-3
tie
for
laura
cupo
and
lisa
ruedesel
