A
Welcome
back
the
downtown
community
alliance,
along
with
the
civic
center
of
Des
Moines,
have
worked
together
to
bring
lunch,
unplugged
series
and
they're
starting
at
here
soon,
I'm
here
at
the
temple
for
Performing
Arts,
located
at
10-11
Locust
Street
in
downtown
Des
Moines.
Here
with
a
lunch
unplugged
series
with
the
downtown
community
alliance,
CEO
Glenn
Lyons
Glenn
welcome
to
the
City
spotlight
thanks
man,
glad
to
be
here
talk
to
us
a
little
bit.
First
of
all,
your
own
was
a
new
one.
A
B
I
spent
35
years
working
in
Calgary
living
and
working
there
in
Alberta
in
the
Canadian
Rockies
city
of
a
million
with
about
a
hundred
thousand
people
working
downtown.
Some
parallels
to
Des
Moines
and
I
worked
at
it
in
public,
private
and
nonprofit
sectors,
and
they
worked
in
other
Western
Canadian
cities,
where
recently
I
spent
two
years
in
Tucson
doing
similar
to
work
to
what
we're
doing
in
Des
Moines
here
and
I
arrived
in
Des
Moines
in
May
and
I'm,
just
loving.
It.
A
As
this
new
CEO
of
the
community
alliance,
you
know
what
what
are
some
of
the
goals
that
you're
you're,
hoping
to
achieve
and
work
for
in
downtown
Des
Moines
I
mean.
Certainly
you
bring
that
experience
and
years
of
experience
from
other
places,
but
Des
Moines
is
somewhat
unique,
but
tell
us
what
what
some
of
your
thoughts
are
moving
forward.
Well,.
B
I
think
the
easiest
way
of
putting
it
is
we
we
need
to
help.
People
think
about
downtown
is
more
than
just
a
place
of
work.
There
are
office
buildings
down
here.
You
work
in
your
office,
but
before
work
at
the
lunch
hour
after
work,
you've
got
an
opportunity
to
take
advantage
of
what
the
neighborhood
has
to
offer
in
downtown
is
a
uniquely
urban
neighborhood
or
their
shopping.
There's
restaurants,
arts
and
culture
of
things
of
that
nature.
B
A
Now
the
downtown
community
alliance,
through
the
years,
has
done
a
lot
of
different
things.
Talk
to
us
quickly
about
some
of
the
events
that
you
guys
have
been
working
on
and
even
skywalk
golf
that
you
just
had
recently
and
talked
to
us
about
how
you're
trying
to
change
that.
Then.
Let's
talk
specifically
about
the
lunch
and
blog
series,
sure.
B
Well,
we
produce
for
large
events
ourselves.
We
produce
the
Des
Moines
Arts
Festival
under
contract
with
their
board.
We
also
do
the
World,
Food
Festival,
imagine
Eve
on
New,
Year's,
Eve
and
skywalk
golf.
There
are
lots
of
other
people
who
produce
events
downtown
like
the
italian
festival
and
we
work
with
a
number
of
those
groups
and
some
of
the
local
business
associations,
like
the
one
in
east
village,.
B
It
started
with
conversations
in
the
business
community.
You
know
a
lot
of
people
work
down
here
say
there
aren't
as
many
restaurants
as
it
should
be.
There
aren't
as
much
isn't
as
much
retail
and
you
know
I
started
looking
around
and
I
realized.
How
do
that
is
part
of
that
occurs,
because
so
many
of
us
aren't
taking
lunch
anymore.
You
know
we're
working
through
lunch,
going
home
early,
not
getting
out
the
door
and
so
we're
trying
to
use
the
series
to
encourage
people
to
actually
take
a
lunch.
Take
a
break
some
days.
B
A
B
They
start
at
1205,
okay,
they
ended
12
55,
it's
eight
dollar
ticket
price.
You
can
bring
your
lunch
and
eat
in
the
theater
or
online.
You
can
order
lunch
for
seven
dollars.
It's
general
admission
seating.
You
can
buy
it
in
advance.
The
Civic
Center's
website.
It's
a
broad
mix
of
music.
We
have
some
singer-songwriters.
The
iowa
opera
is
coming
a
little
bit
of
jazz.
We've
got
an
acapella
group
and
the
nadas
are
the
last
of
the
eight
concerts.
B
A
Alright
and
so
you've
got
the
the
eight
performers,
the
eight
groups
that
are
going
to
going
to
perform,
give
us
an
idea
what
what
that
variety
is
done.
Would
a
lot
of
us
have
known
and
kind
of
grown
up
with
a
with
a
nadas
and
we'll
get
a
chance
to
to
focus
on
them
after
a
while,
but
talk
to
us
about
some
of
the
diversity
in
the
other
groups?
Well,.
B
Right
coming
is
a
singer-songwriter
folk
style
Australian
by
birth.
Butch
thompson
is
a
jazz
pianist.
An
older
fellow
who's
played
many
years,
he'll
be
playing
just
by
himself
without
his
combo.
The
iowa
operas
is
doing
a
50-minute
opera
we've
got
Valerie.
Vigoda
is
a
violinist
who
plays
contemporary
music,
again
sort
of
a
singer/songwriter
mode.
Glenn.
A
Well,
let's
hope
everybody
can
get
plugged
in
and
participate
in
this
lunch.
Unplug
series,
yes,
sounds
good,
we
think
about
downtown
community
alliance.
What
what
other
things
do
you
see
coming
up
this
summer,
because
I
know
that
constantly
you
guys
are
working
on
cleaning
up
the
city
and
cleaning
up
the
sidewalks
and
working
on
skywalks
and
talk
to
us
a
little
bit
about
the
the
focus
of
the
community
alliance?
Well,.
B
As
you
know,
some
of
the
blocks
of
the
river
Walker
opening,
and
so
right
now
we're
working
with
the
city
and
the
riverwalk
development
authority
to
try
to
find
the
best
way
of
managing
those
spaces
and
and
animating
them
bringing
program
programming
to
them.
We're
looking
at
the
possibility
of
a
weekday
farmers
market
in
the
Western
gateway
area,
I
think
we're
going
to
try
some
concerts
at
5
15
under
they
avoid
the
rush
sort
of
theme.
B
A
Were
talking
earlier
about,
you
know,
creating
a
sort
of
a
lifestyle
in
urban
lifestyle
and
I
think
that
a
lot
of
people
are
really
I
was
shocked,
but
but
surprise
should
we
say
about
what's
going
on
in
downtown
Des
Moines
because
it
seems
so
vibrant
compared
to
even
you
know.
Ten
years
ago
you
know
there
were
a
lot
of
events
that
were
happening,
but
you
know
with
it
with
a
new
Papa,
John,
sculpture
area
and
the
new
science
center.
A
The
new
library
and
all
the
events
that
are
going
on
talk
to
us
a
little
bit
is
you,
you
know
put
in
with
your
life
experience
in
other
cities.
What
what
do
you
think
des
moines
needs
to
do,
and
why
is
it
such
as
a
surprising
place,
moving
forward
in
the
piece
that
Community
Alliance
is
playing
in
that
I.
B
Mean
for
starters,
we've
got
75,000
people
working
downtown
in
a
metropolitan
area
of
a
little
over
a
half
million,
there's
no
other
city
in
America.
That
has
that
many
people
working
downtown
and
so
we're
able
to
do
things
in
our
downtown
that
other
cities
of
our
size
can't
many
ways
we
compete
with
larger
cities
like
Kansas
City
and
the
like
for
that
kind
of
urban
lifestyle
choice.
We've
got
some
really
great
emerging
neighborhoods
east
village
is
a
very,
very
developed.
B
B
Yeah
and
I
think
there
was
always
something
there,
but
when
this,
after
the
street,
improvements
were
put
in
place
on
Locust,
the
business
association
started
to
market
the
area
and
we're
getting
more
shops
all
the
time,
I
think
we've
got
it
does
new
shops
of
sure-p
nice
village
alone.
The
court
district
is
a
different
kind
of
district,
it's
more
tied
to
restaurants
and
nightlife.
B
It's
an
all-ages
crowd
until
the
latter
part
of
the
evenings
when
it
tends
to
be
younger.
That's
really
come
a
long
way
in
the
last
five
years
and
I
think
there's
a
new
neighborhood
developing
around
the
Papa
John
sculpture
park
and
the
new
office
buildings
on
the
in
the
Western
gateway.
So
we've
got
neighborhoods
that
you
wouldn't
expect
to
see
here
well.
A
B
Know
I
think
the
housing
is
going
to
come.
We've
we've
actually
had
three
projects
finished
this
year
in
a
bad
economy,
a
bad
real
estate
economy,
that's
pretty
healthy
as
s
downtown,
improves
we're
going
to
get
more
housing,
I
expected
to
see
a
fair
bit
of
housing
in
the
Western
gateway.
But
much
of
what
we've
got
to
do
is
just
make
sure
that
we,
the
downtown,
is
more
than
just
an
office
core.
It's
a
series
of
neighborhoods
that
people
can
experience.
If
we
provide
those
kinds
of
environments,
people
will
come
to
live
and
work.
A
Well,
it's
all
exciting
glennon!
Thank
you
so
much
for
all
the
work
that
you've
done
and
are
doing
and
let's
keep
rolling
it
make
des
moines
more
exciting.
More
inviting
we've
got
a
great
representation
of
great
things
to
do
here
in
Des,
Moines
and
I
appreciate
everything
that
you
guys
are
doing
so
Glenn
Lyons
we're
going
to
work
on
lunch
unplugged.
Hopefully
all
of
you
can
get
a
chance
to
get
down
and
participate
in
this
in
March
and
April.
Yes,.
A
C
A
C
Year,
apparel
yeah
I
just
met
him
today,
and
he
was
telling
me
about
this
music
club
that
that
he
used
to
be
involved
with
up
there
and
how
cool
music
was
up
in
Calgary
and
I
said
we're
playing
a
music
club
up
there
in
April.
So
in
fact,
it's
the
week
before
we
we
do.
Our
lunch
unplugged
show
so
excited
to
go
up.
There
will
be
our
first
time
of
Calgary
yeah.
A
C
Now
we
have,
we
have
a
few
regular
shows
now
that
become
sort
of
annual
events,
and
you
know
we
do
sort
of
the
bar,
the
bar
theater
shows
and
the
in
the
fall
and
in
the
spring.
But
in
the
summer
we
usually
do
assignment
as
the
same
theater
show.
We've
done
one
for
probably
a
decade
now
every
year
and
we
always
do
the
Iowa
State
Fair
first
three
days
of
the
Iowa
State
Fair,
usually,
and
so
those
are
sort
of
staples
and
then
what
you're
talking
about
in
December,
usually
the
first
friday
in
december.
C
C
Over
the
years,
we've
had
quite
a
few
drummers,
more
than
I'd
like
like
to
admit
and
a
couple
of
days
for
a
couple
of
bass
players,
but
we've
always
brought
in
lots
of
musicians
from
around
here
to
work
on
records
or
play
shows
and,
and
we've
had
a
lot
of
had
the
good
fortune
of
playing
with
a
lot
of
great
musicians
around
here.
So
you
know
started
in
college
as
a
hobby
and
then
sort
of
as
a
way
to
make
some
money
and
then
decided.
C
17
years
it's
the
kind
of
a
long
time
to
be
in
a
minor-league
band.
All
right.
You
know
in
a
band
that's
kind
of
doing
on
their
own,
but
we've
found
a
life
that
we
like
and
found
a
great
supporting
fan
base
in
the
Midwest.
Definitely
in
des
moines
and
and
there,
as
you
know,
there
are
a
lot
of
Iowans
who
are
spending
a
little
bit
of
time
in
other
cities
around
the
country,
and
so
we
can
pretty
much
go
anywhere
and
and
sell
out
the
right
room.
So
when.
A
C
Core
of
it
is
Mike
Butterworth
on
guitar
and
vocals
Jason
Smith
on
drums,
John
Locher
who's
been
our
bass
player
for
about
10
years
on
bass
and
Becca
Smith
on
violin,
which
was
a
new
addition
for
this
last
record.
She
came
and
played
a
lot
of
violent
on
the
record.
We
asked
her
if
she'd
go
on
the
road
with
us,
so
she's
been
in
the
band
about
a
year
and
a
half
now
and
that's
the
core.
A
Talk
to
us
a
little
bit
about
how
you
move
around
you,
you
know
people
give
us
a
sort
of
the
lifestyle
and
you
guys
have
your
own
tour
bus
now
or
I
mean
how
do
you?
How
do
you
move
around
from
place
to
place?
Then
you
get
a
haul
all
that
gear
and
pack
it
all
up
and
do
you
like
doing
one
night
stands
or
do
you
like
to
do
an
extended,
show
kind
of
a
deal
or
how
do
you
guys
do.
C
It
well,
we
did.
We
travel
in
a
bus,
but
it's
not
exactly
the
lap
of
luxury.
It's
an
85
Eagle
that
used
to
belong
to
meatloaf.
It's
got
three
million
miles
on
it.
We've
been
through
two
motors
and
about
15
tires,
so
it's
a
bus,
but
it's
still
sort
of
hard.
We
still
carry
all
of
our
own
gear
and
you
know,
for
the
most
part
loaded
in
and
out
ourselves,
I
tend
to
shirk
that
responsibility
a
lot
these
days,
but
anyway
we're
doing
all
the
heavy
lifting
ourselves.
C
And
you
know
half
the
time
we
stay
in
nice,
hotels,
half
the
time
we
stay
in
really
ugly
hotels.
So,
but
you
know
it's
it's
still
a
great
life
I
mean
we've
got
so
many
good
friends
in
so
many
different
places
around
the
country
and
fans
that
you
know
just
come
out
to
support
us
that
that
we
have
a
lot
of
fun
still.
So
our.
A
City,
spotlight
we'd
like
to
focus
a
lot
on
local
talent
and
in
people
that
are
involved
in
community,
and
certainly
you
guys
have
been
leaders
in
certainly
in
music
performance
groups.
How
what
would
you
say
to
some
young
people
who
you
know
are
kind
of
think
about
it,
they're
in
the
basement
or
in
the
garage
plan?
And
and
would
you
encourage
them
to
keep
on
keeping
on
or
you
know
absolutely.
C
I
mean
it's
sort
of
easier
these
days
than
it
ever
has
been
to
be
a
new
band,
and
you
know
it's:
there
aren't
as
many
opportunities
for
superstardom
as
there
used
to
be,
but
but
yeah
I
mean
I,
definitely
encourage,
you
might
say,
take
every
gig.
You
can
get
write
down
every
lyric
idea,
you
pops
into
your
head
and
and
just
get
it
out
there
I
mean
I
was
showing
you
earlier.
I
made
a
music
video
on
my
phone
yesterday
and
published
it
all.
C
A
I
find
stuff
on
YouTube.
That
is
unbelievable,
that
some
of
these
people
put
up
and
sometimes
quality
is
not
good,
but
it's
funny
enough
for
it's
good
enough
or
the
performers
are
good
enough,
that
it
still
gets
a
lot
of
hits
yeah,
so
it
times
are
changing
Jason.
Thank
you.
So
much
for
being
on
quickly
tell
us
if
people
want
to
know
what
the
nada
schedule
is,
how
do
they
get
ahold
of
you
tell
us
the
best
way
to
do
that.
We.
C
Have
you
know
the
nadas
com,
our
regular
website,
which
has
all
of
our
tour
dates
on
it,
has
all
of
our
music
on
it
and
everything
we're
doing
a
lot
on
facebook
and
twitter,
which
is
a
lot
of
fun
and
people?
Can
you
know
we
can
it's
a
really
a
two-way
communication
so
anywhere
online
and
we'll
be
around.
A
Alright,
thanks
for
spending
time
with
us
and
we'll
look
forward
to
an
update,
soon
best
of
luck
to
you
on
the
road
in
2011.
Thank
you.
Alright,
we're
going
to
be
right
back
we're
going
to
take
a
quick
break,

Welcome

Des
Moines

Joining

is
Elliot
Hoffman
from
natural
capitalism
and
crook,
Robinson
and
Laura,
graham

the
City
of
Des
Moines
Elliot,
welcome
to
City
spotlight
and
welcome
to
Des
Moines
great
thanks
to
bina
talk.
D

The
state
of
Iowa
committed
to
provide
fifty
percent
of
the
fee
for
local
businesses
and
entities
that
participate
in
the
circles.
What
we
do
to
make
this
affordable
and
accessible
to
local
companies
and
so
on,
is
we
bring
together.
Eight
companies
or
entities
could
be
a
city
or
a
department
of
the
city
into
what
we
call
a
sustainability
circle
and
the
Conte.
We
bring
great
content
to
this
around
sustainable
issues.
All
geared
towards
helping
companies
save
money,
make
more
money,
help
cities
save
money,
talk
to
us
a.
A
D
The
point
great
question,
as
a
matter
of
fact,
the
first
two
circles
that
we
did
in
the
bay
area
again
just
these
betta
circles.
It
just
happened
to
wine-
we
didn't
know
whether
it
be
better
have
diverse
participants
versus
similar
and
the
first
two
groups
were
very
diverse
from
manufacturers,
a
scrap-metal
dealer,
CEO
of
a
bank
and
pretty
diverse,
and
at
the
end
of
these
first
two
sessions,
I
asked
the
whole
group
right
there.
I
said:
how
did
you
feel
about
the
diversity?
D
D
You
know,
Kirk
can
talk
about
what's
going
on
in
the
in
in
Des
Moines
within
the
city,
and
so
on
and
Scott
from
hyvee
can
pick
up
ideas
from
kirk,
and
you
know
the
principal
folks
going
to
pick
up
things
that
they
would
have
never
picked
up
if
they
were
just
in
with
other
insurance
companies.
So
it
really
does
make
for
a
rich
conversation
and
experience
for
everybody
and.
A
Of
course,
in
Des
Moines
and
Iowa
pointing
out
some
of
those
entities,
you
know
we
have
a
lot
of
downtown
office
space.
Certainly
they've
got
to
look
at
it.
We've
got
another
initiative
going
on.
Hopefully
we're
going
to
learn
a
bunch
out
of
this
and
sort
of
a
green
core
concept,
but
I
I
think
it's
really
exciting,
Laura
and
Kirk.
Let's
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
city's
involvement
in
why
you
guys
thought
it
was
a
great
idea
to
to
move
this
thing
forward.
E
Well,
the
city
was
prevent,
presented
with
an
opportunity
to
get
a
grant
to
help
bring
in
different
businesses
throughout
the
city
and
to
collaborate
on
the
efforts
that
we
for
sustainability.
It
helps
you
know
to
network
between
different
businesses
and
get
ideas
that
we
might
not.
Think
of
so
that
really
brings
the
city
closer
to
its
businesses
that
are
within
the
city
and
it
directly
enhances
what
we
do
as
a
city
and
whole
Laura.
A
F
Know
sustainability
has
been
a
big.
You
know,
issue
for
for
the
city,
for
staff,
for
for
elected
officials,
our
council
members
for
a
number
of
years.
I
think,
for
about
the
past
four
or
five
years
we've
been
working
really
diligently
on
making
our
community
a
more
sustainable
place
and
impacting
the
environment
or
lessening
our
impact
on
the
environment,
and
you
know
the
various
efforts
that
we
have
out
there.
F
The
component
that
we
don't
have
in
place
yet-
which
I
think
is
you
know,
credibly
imperative
for
the
organization
is-
is
an
action
plan
and
natural
capitalism
has
done
a
great
job
and
helping
coordinate
these
sustainability
circles.
And
you
know
through
the
process.
We
come
up
with
a
sustainability
action
plan
that
we
go
back
and
we
work
on
with
a
sustainability
team
and
what
I
think
at
least
staff
really
appreciates
about
that
is.
We
have
some
real
directives.
F
A
Know
we've
got
a
number
of
different
programs
that
we've
been
working
in
the
in
the
City
of
Des,
Moines
and
and
Laura
might
ask
you
to
kind
of
expand
on
it,
but
one
of
the
things
Elliott
that
I
think
is
so
important,
is
getting
this
initial
look
and
getting
all
the
diverse
group
of
businesses
involved
in
the
sustainability
movement
and
effort
and
to
see
critical
improvements
in
their
performance
and
hopefully
affecting
their
bottom
lines.
But
the
City
of
Des
Moines
also
has
been
selected
to
be
a
star
committed.
A
F
You
know
I'm
putting
the
spot
a
little
bit
here.
So
one
of
the
great
things
you
know
that
natural
capitalism
brings
is
showing
you
know.
The
city
is
obviously
interested
in
what
it's
doing
as
an
entity,
but
we
also
want
to
make
sure
that
we
have
good
stewards
of
the
environment
within
our
community.
You
know
our
corporations
and
our
small
businesses
and
our
our
nonprofit
organizations
I
think
they
all
tie
together,
and
you
know
the
little
amounts
of
impact
that
we
have
can
can
be.
You
know
really
challenging
for
the
environment.
F
So
it's
all
about
taking
a
look
at
that
comprehensively
and
working
as
a
group.
The
City
of
Des
Moines
was
recently
awarded
a
position
in
a
beta
cub
project
through
Italy,
which
is
a
star
community
program,
and
what
that
really
is
going
to
do
there
I
think
there
are
a
total
now
of
10
communities
that
are
involved
in
this
process,
but
they
take
a
look
at
its
I
want
to
say
it's
80
different,
comprehensive
points
that
impact
the
environment
and
there.
C
F
Things
from
us,
you
know
as
complicated
as
quality
of
life.
You
know
what
defines
quality
of
life
to
air
quality.
To
you
know
the
types
of
employment
opportunities
that
communities
have.
You
know
to
be
building
envelopes.
How
many
you
know
lead
facilities?
Do
we
have
not
just
city-owned
but
community-wide
within
our
corporate
boundaries?
So
it's
more
of
a
comprehensive
approach
at
you
know
really
figuring
out.
F
E
E
Compounding
all
of
our
efforts
through
each
department
in
the
city
and
trying
to
get
them
to
to
have
involvement
and
have
a
buy-in
to
not
only
with
the
city
but
maybe
even
take
that
home
into
their
own
personal
lives
and
as
that
as
they
use
that
and
as
the
city
and
that
the
businesses
involved
in
this
group
expand
throughout
the
city.
You
know,
hopefully
there's
another
sustainability
circle
that
comes
off
of
our
circle.
That
can
just
keep
compounding
with
each
other.
So
well,.
A
In
/
viewers
to
know,
I
think
that
the
iowa
really
has
been
sort
of
a
leader
in
some
of
these
areas.
Now
population
wise
were
not
as
big
as
some
other
states,
but
when
we
had
a
mayor's
protocol
talking
about
climate
change
and
what
we
were
going
to
do
to
address
it
and
that
in
in
terms
of
leadership
from
the
mayor's
office,
we
had
35
mayor's
in
the
state
of
iowa
sign
up
to
to
participate
in
and
make
a
commitment
to
try
to
change
their
operation
of
the
city.
A
So
it
might
be
interesting
to
reach
out
to
all
those
cities
and
and
bring
them
into
the
fold
and
have
them
participate,
because
I
think
it's
not
only
what
we
do
here,
but
what
we
do
across
the
state
across
the
country
across
the
world.
That's
going
to
make
the
change.
Let's,
let's
talk
quickly
about
how
can
individuals
get
more
information
about
not
only
the
city's
green
efforts
and
maybe
a
website,
but
about
natural
capitalism?
A
D
We've
got
the
beginnings
of
a
website
through
natural
capitalism,
solutions
which
is
a
an
NGO,
and
we
are
a
brother
or
sister
entity
of
that
where
the
for-profit
I'm.
So
if
you
go
there,
you
can
click
through
to
natural
capitalism,
incorporated
we'll
have
our
own
website
up
in
the
next
month
or
so.
Ok,
and
what.
A
D
D
A
D
Of
the
action
plan
is
you'll.
Take
your
your
baseline
carbon
footprint,
for
example.
You'll,
say:
ok,
these
are
the
these.
Are
the
12
15,
whatever
action
items
we're
going
to
do
over
six
months
nine
months,
12
months,
you'll
see,
is
the
investment
that's
required
to
make
these
changes?
You'll
see
your
projected
carbon
footprint
after
these
changes
are
made
return
on
investment
of
the
investments
made,
and
you
will
see
that
so
many
of
the
changes
that
you'll
make
are
really
they
don't
require
money.
It
does
not
require
a
financial
investment.
D
D
Very
simple:
like
turn
off
the
lights
on
a
sunny
day,
many
people
who
are
watching
this
probably
work
in
offices
where
they
have
their
blinds
closed
and
the
lights
on.
All
you
need
to
do
is
open
the
lights.
Let
the
sunshine
in
I'll
open
up
your
shades,
let
the
Sun
in
and
turn
off
your
lights.
There.
A
F
Actually,
a
great
segue,
because
you
know
we
have
some
great
tips
on
how
to
be
more
energy,
efficient
and
cost
savings
on
our
website.
We
have
a
sustainability
or
green
website.
It's
called
green
DM,
o
RG,
that's
updated
pretty
regularly
and
look
for
some
really
exciting
collaborative
processes
that
are
coming
out
on
that
website.
Here
in
the
next
couple
of
months,
we've
got
some
great
projects
coming
up
and
some
great
updates
and
I'll
be
out
there
and
we'll
keep
you
informed
all.
A
Right
again,
Elliot
Laura
Kirk.
Thank
you
guys
for
spend
a
little
time
with
us
on
City
spotlight.
Thank
you,
good
luck
and
we're
going
to
be
looking
for
the
outcomes
and
the
updates
yeah
thanks
have
a
great
day.
Thank
you.
Well
that
wraps
up
this
edition
of
City
spotlight,
you
can
view
today's
program
again
during
the
replays
on
dates
times,
which
will
appear
on
your
screen,
make
my
guess,
and
until
next
time,
I'm
mayor,
frank
county
in
this
city,
spotlight.
