From YouTube: ARPA Advisory Committee Meeting of 9-29-21
Description
City of Chelsea, Chelsea ARPA Community Advisory Committee holds its first meeting.
A
Everyone
can
I
have
your
attention:
we're
going
to
get
started,
so
I'm
tommy
bracino,
the
city
manager-
and
I
just
first
want
to
welcome
everyone
here
to
the
first
meeting
of
the
alpha
community
advisory
committee.
I'm
really
grateful
to
you
for
your
willingness
to
take
part
in
this
committee
and
to
put
in
the
time
that's
going
to
be
necessary.
This
is
going
to
require
some
time
commitment
over
the
course
of
the
next
four
to
five
months.
A
B
A
That
you
get
to
make
a
decision
on
15
million
dollars
and
how
you
want
to
spend
it.
That's
a
considerable
amount
of
money,
and
especially
in
given
that
it's
opera
money,
it
has
surprisingly
very
few
restrictions
on
it
at
least
restrictions
that
aren't
likely
to
come
into
play
here.
As
long
as
your
ultimate
decisions
are
related
to
sort
of
covet
impact,
pretty
much
the
money
can
be
spent
in
any
way
that
you
eventually
deem
it
to
be
appropriate
to
help
this
community.
A
All
that
we
ask
is
that
you
sort
of
keep
an
open
mind
you're,
going
to
gather
a
lot
of
input
over
the
course
of
this
next
four
to
five
months,
from
lots
of
different
stakeholders
to
people
making
different
kinds
of
demands
for
the
spending
of
this
money.
And
I
ask
you
to
really
no
matter
what
sort
of
perspective
you're
coming
from
what
organization
you
belong
to,
that
you're
open
to
all
the
ideas
that
are
presented
at
the
end
of
the
day.
D
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
tom,
and
welcome.
We're
really
excited
about
getting
this
group
together,
as
tom
mentioned,
you're
gonna
be
making
some
really
important
decisions
and
part
of
what
you're
doing
is
also
going
to
be
about
going
beyond
just
your
own.
Individual
choices,
you're
really
making
a
collective
choice
for
chelsea,
and
so
we
are
going
to
be
building
a
sense
of
community
within
this
group.
This
is
a
very
different
kind
of
process.
D
D
D
D
To
know
a
little
bit
about
who
you
all
are
and
so
I'll
be
passing
out
a
form
to
ask
you
to
complete.
That
gives
us
a
sense
of
who
the
folks
are
in
the
room,
demographics
and
things
like
that
and
at
the
end
of
every
meeting,
we'll
ask
you
to
complete
an
evaluation
form
that
tells
us
how
we're
doing,
because
we
want
to
get
better
at
this
as
well
during
the
process.
D
So
I'm
going
to
start
with
just
asking
you
to
complete
a
form
that
tells
us
a
little
bit
about
who
you
are,
and
this
form
you'll
only
have
to
fill
out
once
and
from
here
on.
We'll
know
it
by
because
your
name
will
be
on
and
we'll
know
who
is
here
and
how
to
put
together
the
demographics
of
each
meeting.
G
D
D
I
H
H
J
H
A
H
D
All
right,
thank
you
all
very
much,
sorry
that
that
took
so
much
of
our
time.
We
only
have
to
do
that
one
time
from
now
on,
we'll
do
just
attendance
and
that'll
capture
the
same
information
there.
Instead
of
having
to
fill
it
out,
every
time
appreciate
people
being
willing
to
share
that
information.
Just
helps
us
make
sure
that
we're
well
representing
the
city
of
chelsea
and
all
the
different
folks
who
are
in
it.
My
name
is
mo
marboza.
D
D
I
have
some
agreements,
I'm
going
to
ask
you
to
share
with
me
and
our
time
together
first
is
be
engaged
and
present,
we'll
have
about
90
minutes
or
so
each
meeting.
It's
really
going
to
be
important
that
we
are
here
participating
in
this
space.
So
I'm
gonna
ask
you
as
much
as
you
can
to
put
the
rest
of
the
world
on
hold.
D
If
you
need
to
take
a
call,
you
need
to
handle
something,
please
step
all
the
way
out,
so
that
we're
not
in
your
conversation
and
come
back
when
they're
ready
to
come
back
one
microphone.
So,
as
you
know,
we're
recording
and
we
have
translation
drawing.
So
we
need
one
person
to
speak
at
a
time
so
that
everyone
has
a
chance
to
understand
and
hear
what
is
being
said.
D
Listen
to
understand-
and
that
means
that
we're
really
here
to
hear
one
another
to
understand
what
the
other
perspectives
are
to
understand.
What
the
data
is
telling
us
not
just
to
get
our
points
in.
It's
really
important
that
we
are
trying
to
really
hear
from
each
other
and
understand
our
different
perspectives,
step
up
step
back.
D
There
are
some
people
who
talk
more
and
there
are
some
people
who
talk
less
if
you're,
one
of
those
folks
who
talks
more
I'm
one
of
those
folks,
I'm
going
to
ask
you
to
notice
when
you've
been
saying
a
lot
to
maybe
step
back
and
let
someone
else
step
forward
and
if
you're
somebody
who's
a
little
bit
more
shy.
Who
doesn't
talk
as
often
I'm
going
to
ask
you
to
try
to
bring
your
voice
forward,
we'll
create
space
for
that
voice.
D
D
D
Where
were
your
grandparents
born
all
right
so
who
you
are
how
you're
connected
to
chelsea
and
where
were
your
grandparents
born?
So
I'm
going
to
ask
if
there's
a
brave
and
lovely
soul
that
would
like
to
start
us
off?
Is
there
a
good
volunteer
that
I
can
count
on
before?
Thank
you.
I
was
going
to
pick
scott
because
he
knows
him,
but
I'm
going
to
go
with
you.
K
K
L
Go
ahead
so
I'm
very
shocked:
paula
wicke,
director
of
operations
at
chelsea
housing
also
executive,
vice
president
at
the
chelsea
chamber.
So
that
is
my
connection.
Born
raised
still
live
in
the
city
of
chelsea
and
grandparents,
father's
side
we're
going
on
medford
street
mother's
side,
born
on
bellingham
hill.
M
My
name
is
rick,
gordon.
Actually,
I
was
born
in
chelsea.
I
grew
up
in
another
community
and
back
in
chelsea
in
1985
2006,
but
I
took
over
a
run,
a
family
business.
It's
been
in
chelsea
for
80
years,
so
I've
been
active
in
the
business
community
for
46
47
years,
all
right,
sometimes
service
organizations,
and
where
were
your
grandparents
going?
My
grandparents
are
believed
to
be
both
russia,
russia,.
N
Hi
I'm
kathy
reinstein.
I
am
the
government
affairs
president
for
roca.
I'm
surprised,
I'm
also
on
the
representing
robot
on
the
board
of
directors
for
the
chelsea
chamber,
I'm
a
former
state
rep.
My
husband
is
a
chelsea
firefighter
grew
up
in
chelsea.
I
lived
over
here
and
my
grandparents
were
born
in
peabody.
I
I
R
P
T
U
U
P
A
E
Hi
everybody,
my
name,
is
ben
cares.
I
work
for
the
department
of
housing
and
community
development
in
the
city
of
chelsea,
so
I'm
a
senior
planner
there
with
alex
train
I'm
connected
to
chelsea
just
through
that
job
I
actually
live
in
somerville
and
my
grandparents,
that's
a
tough
one.
I
actually
don't
know
exactly
where
they're
born,
but
I
can
only
imagine
that
I
think
from
new
hampshire
and
massachusetts.
J
J
F
Q
H
X
D
H
D
With
for,
I
won't
say,
like
40
years
and
my
grandparents
were
born
in
a
little
island
in
the
capeford
islands
in
florida,
so
thank
you
all
part
of
sharing.
That
is
to
start
with
the
note
that
it
doesn't
matter
whether
you
live
work
play
own
run,
a
business
in
chelsea.
All
of
that
makes
you
part
of
this
community
and
whether
your
grandparents
came
here
a
hundred
years
ago,
or
you
came
here
three
months
ago.
D
That's
where
we're
going
to
start
from
and
it's
what
we're
aiming
to
do
is
bring
all
of
that
collective
thinking
and
expertise
and
experience
forward.
Thank
you
all
for
sharing,
I'm
going
to
make
this
as
much
as
I
can
not
me
talking
at
you,
but
a
conversation
with,
and
so
some
of
the
things
that
are
going
to
be
on
the
screen
I'll
ask
you
to
read
into
the
room
and
bring
your
voice
into
the
space.
You
can
go
to
the
next
slide.
Wonderful,
so
that's
the
agenda.
D
D
The
process
itself
like
how
are
we
going
to
do
this?
We're
making
this
decision
so
we'll
take
a
break
with
some
food
somewhere
in
the
middle
there?
Maybe
before
we
even
talk
about
the
process,
we're
going
to
share
some
initial
information
about
chelsea
and
some
of
the
areas
that
we're
looking
at
and
then
we
want
to
spend
some
time
at
the
end
really
talking
about
what
is
your
role
in
this
and
how
is
this
going
to
work
together?
Some
next
steps
and
we'll
close
all
right
any
questions.
D
So
far
one
question
I
told
ricky
that
my
best
side
is
the
back
of
my
head.
So
that's
going
to
be
a
little
video.
A
lot
you'll
see
a
lot
of
that
on
the
video
all
right.
So
what
is
arpa?
Is
there
a
brave
and
loving
soul
that
I
could
ask
to
read
that
first
paragraph,
nice
and
loud-
and
you
know
if
you're
the
person
who's
kind
of
loud
in
your
family,
so
feel
free
to
speak
up
and
volunteer
each
other's
sister.
B
D
J
Y
D
V
D
It
is
a
really
tribute
to
the
city
of
chelsea
and
its
leadership
that
this
transparency
is
happening
here.
Many
other
communities
are
not
doing
this
and
in
those
communities
the
voices
of
the
of
the
residents
and
the
new
stakeholders
are
not
part
of
the
process.
So
this
is
very
different
and
importantly,
special
that
that
is
happening
here
in
chelsea
all
right.
Let's
slide
so
15
million
dollars
will
be
dedicated
to
initiatives
and
priorities
developed
by
the
community
following
a
robust
community
engagement
effort.
D
D
D
Food
security
really
important
that
we're
thinking
about
not
just
the
insecurity,
but
how
do
people
have
food
security
in
the
future,
workforce
development,
so
developing
the
the
workforce
itself
and
the
people
who
are
working
in
their
ability
and
places
where
they
can
work
but
prioritizing
digital
access,
child
care
and
early
edu
early
childhood
education
initiatives,
entrepreneurship
and
small
business
development,
environmental,
health
and
open
space
and
behavioral
and
mental
health?
So
we
have
quite
a
set
of
topics
to
really
dive
deep
into
and
then
make
some
decisions
about.
D
D
The
committee
has
our
meeting
dates,
but
it
also
talks
about
these
arfa
dollars
and
what
they're
going
to
and
how
they're
coming
to
the
city
as
well,
and
so
it's
about
40
million
or
so
you
know
we'll
know
exact
numbers
once
they
actually,
you
know
write
the
checks
about
25
million
dollars
of
that
is
going
to
pay
back
what
the
city
has
already
expended
in
its
addressing
of
code
again,
this
is
really
supposed
to
be
about
poking
dollars.
Can.
A
A
So
with
that
one
year
alone,
in
that
one
category,
the
city
lost
over
10
million
dollars.
So
we
have
basically
estimated
that
okay,
we
didn't
want
to
take
it
all
for
foster,
it's
quite
possible.
We
made,
we
probably
could
establish
that.
But
what
we've
said
is
we're
going
to
cop
out
this
25
million
for
a
lost
revenue
and
we're
going
to
allow
the
community
to
decide
how
to
best
use
the
remaining.
H
D
A
Tom,
so
can
I
just
add
one
more
thing:
with
that:
25
million
we
are
a
lightweight.
I
am
committed
to
the
city
that
we
will
be
spending
on
all
of
the
capital
projects
that
are
in
our
capital,
including
improvement
program.
So
that's
a
program
that
the
council
gets
to
weigh
in
on
every
single
year.
They
vote
on
that
capital
improvement
plan.
A
That
plan
has
more
than
25
million
dollars
in
projects
in
it.
It
has
all
sorts
of
projects,
including
lots
of
school
projects,
for
improving
field,
doing
highly
tackle
we're
doing
breaches
and
veterans
deals.
All
sorts
of
things
are
in
our
capital
improvement
plan,
it's
always
published
on
the
website.
You
can
see
the
current
plan
there,
but
each
and
every
year
the
council
revisits
it
and
hopes
to
approve
it
annually.
A
We'll
still
need
to
do
some
borrowing
because,
as
I
said,
our
capital
plan
over
the
next
four
years
far
exceeds
25
million
dollars,
but
our
borrowing
won't
be
25
million
dollars
less
and
that'll
help
the
city
and
its
budget,
because
it
needs
less
money.
We
have
to
appropriate
for
debt
service
cases.
A
D
You
this
is
a
really
good
example.
If
you
have
a
question,
please
bring
it
forward
because
it
will
enrich
in
the
process
for
everyone,
and
we
can
bring
in
the
information
that
we
don't
have
on
hand
and
make
it
available
to
the
committee
all
right.
So
if
we
don't,
if
you
know
if
tom
wasn't
here
to
extricate
all
of
that,
we
would
have
brought
through
the
information
and
send
it
to
you.
D
So
the
first
part
is
that
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we
have
lots
of
community
input.
Part
of
that
is
understanding
the
data
that's
already
out
there
and
so
we'll
be
looking
at
information
from
the
census.
Information
from
community
health
assessments,
information
from
other
studies
that
have
already
been
done
so
that
we
don't
have
to
like
recreate
the
wheel.
So
you
can
look
at
what
folks
have
already
been
telling
people,
the
lots
of
you
know,
focus
groups
and
so
forth
that
have
happened
around
the
community
over
the
last
couple
years.
D
You
want
to
be
able
to
capture
and
take
in
that
information
and
then
we're
going
to
do
some
of
our
own
focus
groups
that
are
targeted
at
the
topics
of
our
discussion.
So
we're
going
to
talk
about
you,
know
small
business
and
workforce
development,
we'll
do
some
focus
groups,
that'll
focus
on
those
topics,
there's
some
key
interviews
about
eight
to
ten
or
so
key
interviews.
D
People
who
you
would
want
to
make
sure
you
talk
to
who
are
not
part
of
this
committee,
so
some
of
y'all
are
the
people
who
we
would
want
to
make
sure
we
talk
to.
But
there
may
be
some
other
folks
in
the
community
who,
because
of
their
experience,
their
position
their
membership
in
a
certain
organizational
community.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
we
get
their
opinion,
and
this
is
again
about
collecting
the
opinions
and
experiences
of
as
many
people
as
possible.
D
We'll
have
some
meetings
with
community-based
organizations
across
the
city
again
to
capture
some
of
that
information
and
get
from
the
people
who
are
working
on
these
issues.
Some
of
what
they
see
and
then
there'll
be
a
large
community
survey
in
which
we'll
be
asking
all
the
residents
of
of
chelsea
to
give
us
their
voice
about
what
they
care
about
and
what
they
see
for
the
future
of
chelsea
and
what
we
should
be
investing
in.
W
D
Be
taking
all
of
that
information
together
and
bringing
it
to
you
in
a
way
that
you
can
take
it
in
you'll
always
have
the
availability
of
all
of
the
data,
but
we
also
will
not
inundate
you
with
lots
of
things.
We're
not
going
to
just
dump
a
bunch
of
data.
On
top
of
you
know,
give
you
something
that
you
can
take
a
look
at
and
we'll
do
it
in
each
a
little
bit
at
a
time
in
each
meeting,
so
that
we
can
be
really
specifically
looking
at
particular
topics
all
right.
So
that's
the
community
input.
D
D
There
may
be
some
other
things
that
are
important,
but
for
this
investment,
what
do
we
want
to
prioritize
and
then
the
last
part
of
the
process
is
about
deciding
which
strategy
is
under
those
priorities.
How
do
we
go
about
doing
the
things
that
we've
now
set
our
priorities
and
make
some
funding
recommendations,
and
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we
look
at
this
last
part
really
directly.
D
This
group
is
going
to
make
funding
recommendations
to
the
city
of
chelsea,
all
right,
that's
very
different
than
deciding
on
this
project
versus
that
project.
You're,
making
recommendations
about
what
these
dollars
should
be
spent
on,
not
who
individually
receives
the
dollars
any
questions
about
that.
D
All
right,
you're
going
to
hear
me
say
that
at
least
seven
times,
probably
every
meeting
you're
gonna
be
making
decisions
about
how
the
dollars
are
spent
not
who
receives
the
dollars?
Okay,
okay,
so
the
difference
would
be
that
you
know
you
might
come
out
and
say
at
the
end
of
this
process,
you
want
a
set
of
dollars
to
be
spent
on
eviction
prevention
as
a
specific
strategy.
D
D
So
really
important,
so
part
of
what
you're
gonna
see
here
is
to
look
at
the
data
that
should
be
behind
these
decisions
and
then
what
you
give
money
to
in
terms
of
priorities,
you'll
also
have
a
sense
of
how
are
people
working
on
this?
Are
they
making
data-driven
decisions?
What
you're
not
looking
at
is
like
a
project
you
know
like.
Does
this
one
vendor
use
decision
making?
I
want
to
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
clear
about
that.
Okay,
so.
G
D
In
this
process,
part
of
what
we're
looking
for
is
to
get
some
of
that.
Some
of
what
else
should
we
be
looking
at
inform
that
in
the
community
input?
So
if
you
know,
let's
say
that
we'll
pick
a
topic,
that's
otherwise
substance
use
or
let's
take
one,
that's
unlikely
so
that
we
can
use
it
in
the
topic
and
it
did
not
become
a
thing.
D
The
port
was
really
important
to
somebody,
and
then
we
hear
in
community
meetings
that
the
court
is
important
and
then
we
hear
in
community-based
organizations
important
is
important.
You
all
are
going
to
listen
and
here
take
in
that
data
and
say
you
know
what
we
need
to
address
that,
and
so
that's
part
of
what
we're
going
to
see
through
this
process
is.
We've
got
a
set
of
things
that
we
want
to
look
at,
and
you
know
like
substance
abuse
is
behavioral
health,
it's
already
in
there,
but
there
may
be
something
about
it.
I
And
determining
who
how
the
money
is?
Actually
we
determine
we'll
give
you
the
priorities
in
determining
who
gets
the
money
in
that
decision-making
process?
Is
the
only
one
involved
in
that
process,
or
is
there
a
panel
that's
going
to
handle
that
process
as
well
and
then
my
second
question
is:
is:
is
it
going
to
be
subjected
to
approval
by
the
city
council?
A
This
is
a
federal
brand
and
it's
handled
like
all
federal
brands.
It
doesn't
it's
not
appropriated
by
the
city
council,
so
it
comes
to
us
with
a
set
of
it's
like
a
community
development.
Co-Op
grant
brand
comes
to
the
city
and
the
city
spends
it
in
accordance
with
the
guidance
from
the
federal
government.
This
is
the
same
thing.
We
will
spend
it
in
accordance
with
the
guidance
of
the
federal
government
and
that's
the
restriction.
A
However,
the
guidance
from
the
federal
government
here
is
quite
raw,
and
so
it's
really
about
responding
to
cold
as
long
as
you're,
responding
to
clothing
and
all
of
these
categories
are
going
to
meet
that
definition,
you
are
going
to
be
able
to
spend
it
in
that
way.
So
if
you
say
we
want
a
million
dollars
spent
on
building
of
helping
someone
build
affordable
housing,
that's
the
recommendation
that
comes
in
the
train
to
us.
A
We
will
put
out
an
rfp
and
so
is
a
proposal
for
entities
that
will
help
improve
child
care
in
the
city.
If
you
say
we
want
half
a
million
to
deal
with
domestic
violence,
you
put
on
an
rfp.
Typically,
we
do
everything
by
rfp
we
solicit
proposals
from
people
that
can
do
the
work.
You
are
going
to
tell
us
here's
the
areas
who
we
want
to
spend
this
month,
then
we'll
take
that
and
start
soliciting
proposals.
D
A
M
D
D
D
Could
something
happen
absolutely,
but
the
more
that
we
are
able
to
articulate
the
desires
of
this
committee
for
these
dollars,
the
better
able
we
are
to
hold
the
administration,
the
city
accountable
to
doing
the
desires
of
this
committee,
all
right
and
the
more
that
those
desires
reflect
a
collaborative
opinion
about
what
will
help
chelsea
move
forward
and
not
an
individual
interest,
but
better
able
this
committee
and
this
community
will
be
able
to
hold
an
administration
accountable.
So
that's
what
we
want
to.
A
P
H
A
How
much
total
we
got?
We
got
28
million
from
governor
baker,
we
got
4
million
just
directly
from
the
government
from
being
a
city
and
we
got
a
little
over
7
million
for
being
part
of
suffolk
county.
So
the
total
of
those
three,
the
city
police,
the
suffolk
county
piece
and
the
baker
money-
is
40
million
dollars.
A
P
R
A
A
As
I
said,
we
are
going
to
spend
that
glossary
of
money
on
capital
improvements,
because
that's
a
process
that
engages
the
city
council,
the
city
council
must
approve
all
of
our
capital
expenditures
and
so
to
get
them
involved
in
that
piece
and
to
ensure
that
the
world
is
it's
really
the
easiest
way
to
spend
this
money.
We
have
so
many
capital
projects
in
the
pipeline.
M
D
There's
no
guarantees
but
the
more
you're
able
to
establish
what
it's
for
the
more
credible
this
decision-making
processes,
the
harder
it
is
for
it
to
deviate
from
that
the
eiffel
dollars
do
have
a
sunset
also.
I
think
we
need
to
spend
some
of
that
within
a
certain
time
frame.
What
we'll
do
over
the
course
of
each
of
these
meetings
is
also
bring
forward
some
more
of
the
federal
language
so
that
you'll
understand
what
the
limitations
are
on
there.
D
But
I
think
the
part
that's
hardest
is
that
this
is
different
money
than
you
almost
ever
get
to
spend
in
a
community.
It
is
a
lot
less
tied
to
certain
restrictions
and
it
is
really
focused
on
the
future
recovery
from
cold
events,
and
that
gives
you
a
different
opportunity
than
other
dollars
that
have
come
to
the
to
the
city.
So
we're
going
to
just
move
forward,
because
I
want
to
make
sure
we've
covered
the
information
that
we
have
and
use
our
time
wisely.
D
Meeting
number
two:
we're
going
to
focus
on
workforce
development
and
small
business,
meaning
that
we're
going
to
bring
the
data
and
the
information
and
the
input
that
we
have
at
that
point
about
workforce
development
and
small
business.
We're
going
to
talk
about
it
with
you
all
here.
We're
going
to
ask
you
to
start
developing
some
priorities
in.
D
We
care
about
in
terms
of
workforce
development
and
small
business
and
then
do
some
initial
ranking
of
those
priorities
at
each
of
these
three
meetings.
Meetings
number
two,
three
and
four
will
be
taking
up
one
of
these.
Taking
up
some
of
these
topics
and
working
through
them,
so
meeting
number
three
will
be
on
housing
and
food
security.
D
W
D
Four
behavioral
mental
and
environmental
health
next
slide,
please
so
at
each
of
these
topical
meetings,
we're
going
to
review
the
data,
we're
going
to
examine
themes
from
the
focus
groups
and
interviews
and
community-based
meetings.
So
what
are
we
hearing
from
the
public
we're
going
to
gather
and
define
some
priorities
and
then
do
some
initial
refining
of
those
priorities
ranking
those
priorities?
J
D
Five
is
when
we'll
refine
those
priorities
and
start
to
develop
the
strategy.
So
you
care
about
this.
Here's
how
we
want
to
spend
on
that
meeting.
Number
six
will
finalize
the
strategies
and
then
meeting
number
seven,
the
allocation
plan
so
of
the
15
million
we've
got
these
strategies
and
priorities.
E
D
It
doesn't
tell
you
where
we
are
now
that
was
two
years
ago.
It
might
be
from
2017
that's
a
long
time
ago.
So
we'll
have
what
the
data
is
telling
us,
but
we
want
to
test
it
with
what
the
community
is
telling
us
so
we'll
spill
in
some
of
those
gaps
there,
and
if
there
are
areas
that
we
don't
have
any
information,
then
we'll
see
if
we
can
find
that
information
to
be
able
to
actually
use
it
here.
D
V
D
So
I'm
going
to
tell
you
something
that,
just
for
everybody
anytime,
that
someone
presents
you
data,
they
should
tell
you
where
it
came
from.
I
was
collected
all
of
that,
so
we'll
try
to
be
as
transparent
about
that
as
possible.
If
it's
not
on
the
slide,
we'll
make
it
available
to
you.
So
you
know
where
it's
coming
from
and
how
trusted
the
source
may
or
may
not
be
again
for
all
of
us.
We
want
to
take
in
the
data,
but
we're
not
going
to
just
take
that
that
be
the
only
thing
that
matters.
D
D
F
D
All
right,
some
of
the
other
activities
we'll
go
to
chelsea
city
council
and
have
a
chance
to
hear
from
the
folks
with
the
political
leadership,
because
they
are
the
elected
body
representing
the
voices
and
choices
of
the
community.
We
want
to
hear
what
they
have
to
say:
we'll
do
a
public
meeting
between
meeting
number
six
and
number
seven,
where
we
take
here's.
D
What
this
committee
has
said,
we
want
to
go
out
and
talk
to
the
folks
in
the
community
to
hear
what
they
think
of
the
process
all
the
way
along
we'll
be
making
things
available.
But
at
that
meeting
we
really
want
folks
to
weigh
in
and
give
us
a
sense
of
what
they
think
of
what
the
choices
have
been.
And
hopefully
that's
also
an
opportunity
for
us
to
hear
a
little
bit
about
how
we've
listened
about
the
future
of
this
community
and
then
all
throughout
the
process
we'll
be
using
social
media
as
well.
D
G
G
Not
so
much,
I
don't
think
it's
so
much
school,
driven
it's
more
for
like
the
ptos,
the
parent
groups,
anything
that
has
to
do
with
yeah.
You
know
in
in
the
school
social
workers
here
what
parents
are
going
home
and
that
could
be
an
incredible
sounding
board
to
to
basically
verify
or
confirm
the
data
that
we
have
in
front
of
us
or
to
identify
another
need
that
we
may
not
hear
about
in
the
school
system.
We're
dealing
with
that.
We're
not
aware
really.
J
D
Make
a
suggestion
make
a
suggestion
because
part
of
what
we
are
going
to
do
as
a
committee
is
we're
not
here
to
attack
the
administration
for
what
they're
not
doing
we're
here
to
tell
them
what
we
want
them
to
do
and
part
of
that
practice
is
to
begin
to
say
here's
something,
I
think,
is
important.
So
what
you
just
said
there.
I
really
appreciated
that,
because
you're
saying
we
should
talk
to
these
folks
am
I
am
I
hearing
you
correctly.
So
that's
the
framing
that
I
want
to
ask
everyone
to
do.
D
E
D
D
D
Think
it
would
have
to
matter
what
it
is
that
was
being
brought
up.
I
think,
by
that
point,
we'll
be
in
a
place
where
most
of
what's
deeply
important
for
me
like
this,
has
been
already
talked
about
and
we're
doing
a
space
to
inform
and
kind
of
gut
check
with
community
about.
What's
there
it's
not
like
go
and
say:
hey,
did
we
get
it
right?
D
Necessarily,
I
mean
we
want
to
get
some
of
that,
but
if
there's
something
that
is
so
completely
outside
of
what
we've
talked
about
that
at
that
point
is
really
important
to
the
broad
set
of
community.
I
think
we
have
to
take
it
up,
but
we're
hoping
that,
through
this
process,
we're
hearing
that
early
on
and
that's
part
of
the
decision
making
that
you
all
do
one
more
and
then
we're
gonna
just
I
want
to
make
sure
that
I
get
you
to
the
break.
D
Absolutely
great
question
so
meeting
number
seven,
I
believe,
is
at
the
end
of
january,
beginning
of
february.
So
at
that
point
be
we'll
have
an
allocation
plan
that
then
tells
the
city
how
to
spend
the
dollars
and
then
it's
about
the
rfp
process.
Some
things
can
go
quicker.
Some
things
not
expected
that
at
least
puts
into
motion
the
expenditure
of
those
dollars.
We've
been
the
time
frame
for
our
company,
all
right.
D
R
D
If
I
ask
you
who
the
people
in
chelsea
were
what
would
you
tell
me,
I'm
gonna
ask
somebody
who
we
haven't
heard
from
yet
anybody
who
we
haven't
heard
from
yet,
if
I
ask
you
who
is
chelsea,
what
would
you
tell
me
the
folks
we
haven't
heard
from
yet
we
know
who
you
are
but
I'll.
Let
you
volunteer.
First,
thank.
S
D
D
D
D
Okay,
anybody
else
who
is
chelsea,
we'll
take
one
more,
it's
a
little
bit
louder,
so
he
can
hear
supportive
all
right.
Thank
you.
We're
going
to
look
at
some
data.
That
says
who
is
chelsea,
but
I
want
you
to
take
it
with
all
that
you've
heard
here,
because
this
is
part
of
the
description,
but
it's
not
the
whole
story.
D
All
right,
so
chelsea
experienced
more
growth
in
population
size
over
the
last
decade
than
the
state
overall
than
the
state
average.
Overall,
so
more
growth
was
happening
here.
Chelsea's
population
increased
almost
16
percent
in
the
last
decade,
while
massachusetts
grew
only
seven
and
a
half
percent,
so
more
than
double
all
right.
D
Chelsea's
population
is
relatively
young.
Thank
you
for
bringing
up
the
babies
all
right.
Approximately
one
in
four
residents
was
under
18
in
2019.,
one
in
four
residents
was
under
18.,
so
lots
of
young
people
that's
a
piece
of
work.
This
two-thirds
of
chelsea
residents
identify
as
hispanic
or
latino.
D
It
means
that
there
is
a
significant
population
here
of
folks
who
identify
as
hispanic
or
latino
and
that's
an
important
part
of
the
richness
of
this
community.
That
has
to
be
a
part
of
how
we
think
about
who
is
here
and
who
is
going
to
be
chelsea
slightly
more
than
two
and
five
residents
were
born
outside
the
united
states,
slightly
more
than
two
and
five.
So
it's
over
forty
percent.
That's
a
substantial
number
of
folks.
D
It
is
not
uncommon
for
a
community
to
have
a
high
number
of
folks
who
are
born
outside
the
united
states
in
the
northeast,
especially
communities
that
have
had
a
history
of
immigration.
It's
important
that
we
recognize
what
that
brings,
what
the
gifts
are
and
also
what
the
challenges
are
for.
The
folks
who
are
coming
here
three
times
higher
than
the
foreign-born
population
in
massachusetts
as
a
whole,
more
than
two-thirds
of
chelsea
residents,
speak
a
language
other
than
english.
D
D
Important
that
we
recognize
not
only
that
language
is
a
way
in
which
people
communicate.
It's
also
a
way
in
which
people
see
the
world
how
they
define
what
they
experience,
and
so
it's
really
important
that
in
our
deliberations
that
we
do
it
in
a
way,
that's
accessible
and
so
we'll
be
having
translation
and
interpretation
throughout
the
process
and
in
each
meeting,
because
we
want
to
make
sure
that
people
are
able
to
access
the
entirety
of
the
conversation
and
are
empowered
to
be
part
of
the
process.
D
D
D
It
is
low
because
what
we
understand,
as
people
being
in
need
in
a
place
like
massachusetts
in
a
place
like
chelsea
how
much
it
takes
to
be
able
to
provide
and
make
a
living,
is
a
lot
higher
than
the
federal
poverty
level
somewhere
else.
The
income
that
someone
would
have
at
the
federal
poverty
level
could
pay
for
rent
and
food
and
gas
and
utilities,
and
all
the
things
that
people
do,
but
the
federal
poverty
level
will
not
pay
for
that
in
chelsea.
So
it's
important.
D
We
recognize
that,
while
it's
19
here,
the
people
who
are
struggling
are
a
much
higher
percentage
than
that.
So
that's
part
of
what
we
will
bring
into
this
process
is
information
that
helps
us
to
understand.
What
is
the
role
of
poverty
in
a
place
like
this?
Okay
29
of
chelsea
residents
over
25
are
not
high
school
graduates.
D
This
affects
workforce
development,
it
affects
opportunities,
and
what
does
that
mean?
And
what
do
we
provide
for
folks,
because
of
that
over
a
third
of
recent
high
school
graduates
intended
on
continuing
education
at
a
two-year
public
college,
so
we've
got
a
third
or
so
that
are
intending
to
go
to
a
two-year
public
college
and
there
are
some
nearby.
D
D
These
are
just
a
few
nuggets
of
information
that
we
want
to
be
thinking
about,
as
we
are
trying
to
understand
what's
going
on
here,
so
the
impact
of
coping
I'm
not
going
to
read
slides
to
you
all
day.
I
want
somebody
else
to
read
this
one
for
me.
Could
I
ask
somebody,
maybe,
in
a
loud
crisp
voice,
to
read
this
slide?
For
me,
start
at
chelsea
has
been
hit
hard.
I
19
and
while
the
community
case
rate
has
improved,
impacts
have
been
brought
more
than
half
of
chelsea.
Respondents
reported
being
worried
about
paying
one
or
more
type
of
bill
or
expense.
Two
and
five
respondents
that
currently
use
some
substances
reported
in
increase
in
substance
abuse
since
the
last
since
the
start
of
the
pandemic.
A
survey
of
the
la
calabretiva
client,
who
predominantly
identified
as
hispanic
or
latino,
found
that
three
in
four
respondents
experience
impacts
to
their
employment.
D
Unfortunately,
chelsea
has
had
it
on
even
unaccounted
for,
because
I
would
say
that
there's
suffering
that
has
happened
here
to
the
covert
that
doesn't
even
begin
to
show
up
in
these
numbers,
but
a
disproportionate
impact
of
covet
in
this
community,
and
it's
really
important
that
we
understand
what
the
impact
has
been
because
part
of
the
the
purpose
of
these
dollars
is:
how
do
we
move
forward
from
code?
How
do
we
respond
to
this
in
moving
forward?
D
M
U
C
U
P
P
D
We
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
bringing
those
things
that
we
really
cherish
and
are
important
about
chelsea
into
this
decision-making,
because
that's
what
we're
actually
building
on,
not
just
the
stuff
that
we've
heard
or
just
about
building
all
the
things
that
we
love
the
things
that
are
important
to
us.
So
we've
been
looking
at
those
things
as
well.
D
Throughout
this
process,
we
did
want
to
share
with
you
today
a
little
bit
of
the
data
that
we're
going
to
be
looking
at
under
each
of
these
topics,
just
to
kind
of
start
people
thinking
about
these
issues
and
then
we're
going
to
spend
the
end
of
the
meeting.
Just
talking
about
your
role,
all
right
next
slide.
D
Small
business
and
workforce
development,
unemployment
in
chelsea
increased
between
december
2019
to
december
2020
and
leveled
out
this
august,
but
it
leveled
out
at
double
the
rate
of
where
it
was
before.
So
we
had
this
huge
spike
like
everywhere
else,
but
it
didn't
go
back
down
all
the
way.
It's
still
double
the
number
that
was
before
chelsea
lost
approximately
one
third
of
the
licensed
child
care
providers.
D
Since
the
start
of
covert
19
pandemic-
and
you
know
sometimes
people
ask.
Why
do
we
care
so
much
about
this?
This
is
not
only
opportunity
for
the
people
who
are
working
as
child
care
providers,
but
it
allows
other
people
to
work
when
their
children
are
being
cared
for
in
a
quality
space
that
provides
them
the
things
that
they
need.
D
D
That's
you
know:
3
000
households
that
had
to
find
a
different
way
to
support
themselves
and
each
other
and
their
children
3
000
families
that
had
questions
about
where
their
next
meal
was,
how
they're
going
to
pay
the
rent.
How
they're
going
to
take
the
next
steps
and
their
dreams
and
their
hopes
and
the
things
that
they
care
about?
So
some
of
the
things
that
we
want
to
understand
and
examine,
as
we
start
to
make
decisions
about
how
to
invest
these
dollars
again.
D
D
D
Not
it
doesn't
count
the
whole
number
and
the
way
in
which
unemployment
gets
counted,
isn't
just
the
filings.
It's
also
there's
community
surveys
about
whether
folks
have
been
involved
or
not
so
a
little
bit
of
both,
but
both
of
those
under
count
a
place
like
chelsea.
So
we
know
that
it's
worse
than
what
the
numbers
say.
D
Yes,
absolutely
absolutely,
and
it's
really
higher
in
some
communities
than
it
is
and
others
within
chelsea
absolutely
did
you
want
to
say
something?
No
alex
did
you
want
to
ask
housing
and
food
security,
nearly
half
of
all
households
in
chelsea
identified
as
cost
burden
paying
more
than
30
so
30
to
50
of
their
income
on
housing,
and
during
this
time
of
january,
to
august
this
this
year,
4.2
million
funds
were
distributed
to
chelsea
residents.
D
D
This
is
a
place
where
you
start
to
see
the
strain
of
all
the
other
things
we
looked
at
and
what
its
impact
and
effects
are
on
the
people
who
live
here.
Having
going
through
the
other
things
that
we
saw
we're
going
to
be
looking
at
a
lot
of
information
about
the
experiences
and
the
live
lives
of
people
in
chelsea.
Some
of
it
will
be
hard
to
read.
Some
of
it
will
be
difficult
to
process.
D
D
So,
if
there's
something
that
you
like,
I'm
not
sure
what
that
means
or
here's
something
else
I've
been
thinking
about.
We
want
you
to
bring
that
forward
and
help
us.
So
if
you
know
tomorrow,
night
they're
like
oh,
I
should
have
said
I'm
going
to
give
you
my
information.
You'll
have
alex's
information.
I
want
you
to
send
us
that
information
so
that
we
can
bring
that
into
the
process.
D
D
D
D
D
It
won't
mean
that
other
things
aren't
important,
but
it
will
mean
that
this
is
what
we're
going
to
be
working
on
and
I'll
come
back
to
that
throughout
the
process
and
then
last
but
not
least,
to
make
these
really
powerful
recommendations
about
how
these
dollars
will
be
spent.
What
are
we
going
to
spend
these
dollars
on?
D
D
D
So
we'll
do
backwards
when
we
are
doing
in-person
meetings
and
we'll
also
get
a
list.
So
one
of
the
wonderful
things
about
what
chelsea
has
done
is
all
of
this
is
on
the
website,
like
literally
what
was
on
those
slides.
Most
of
that
was
on
the
website,
the
stuff,
that's
about
arpa,
about
the
chelsea
spending,
where
their
money
comes
from,
how
much
everything
that
tom
told
them
is
open
for
everybody
to
see.
D
G
D
Yes,
so
on
the
website
also
are
the
dates
for
all
the
dates
for
meetings,
we're
going
to
update
that
after
tonight.
So
I'm
going
to
ask
you
to
just
look
at
it
tomorrow
and
one
thing
that
I'm
going
to
commit
to
you
all.
I
believe
we
have
all
of
your
emails,
I'm
going
to
send
you
the
updated
dates
and
then
you'll
also
have
my
information.
