B
Perfect
good
evening
all
and
welcome
to
the
december
14
administration,
public
public
works
meeting.
We
have
a
quorum.
B
Alderman
suffered
and
if
you
don't
mind,
reading
rc1
suspension
of
the
rules
allowing
for
remote
participation.
C
D
E
F
B
Okay
motion
passes
and
we
are
on
to
consent.
So
if
we
can
make
note
of
which
items
you
would
like
removed
if
any,
and
then
we
will
pass
the
consent
agenda.
B
Okay,
mr
vasilco,
welcome
you
have
three
minutes.
G
G
I'd
like
to
know
why
we're
still
paying
instructor
services
or
so
much
in
the
way
of
instructor
services
for
things
like
softball
league,
umpires
and
other
things
when,
during
this
covered
period,
most
of
the
classes,
if
any
of
them
are
operating,
most
of
them
are
not
operating
and
yet
we're
still
paying
instructor
services
as
part
of
parks,
recreation.
G
And
still
confused
why
our
capital
improvements
were
we
committed
to
over
a
million
dollars
of
capital
improvements
that
are
being
paid
this
period
and
why
some
of
those
things
couldn't
have
been
postponed
until
next
year
or
the
year
after,
when
our
resources
are
in
better
shape?
Thank
you
very
much.
B
F
G
F
F
A
Let's
see
this,
I
want
to
have
the
movable
partition
for
the
levy
senior
center
removed.
What
number
is
that?
I
don't
even
know.
D
A
F

C
A
F
F
B
Motion
passes,
a5
staff
recommends
I'm
sorry
ottoman
rainey.
Will
you
read
that
one.
A
Yes,
I
will,
let
me
get
it
up
here,
sorry
about
that
a5!
Yes,
this
is
approval
of
a
contract
award
with
manifold
for
automated
movable
partition
for
the
levy
senior
center
linden
room.
This
is
in
the
amount
of
seventy
thousand
nine
hundred
thirty
three
dollars.
I
move
approval
and
I'd
like
to
speak
to
it.
A
Thank
you.
This
is
another
project
of
the
levy
foundation.
They
will
be
paying
the
full
amount,
however,
because
of
the
city's
procedure
for
purchasing,
etc,
etc.
The
city
has
to
pay
first,
and
then
the
levy
foundation
will
reimburse
them
the
linden
room,
which
is
being
renovated.
Right
now,
is
the
room
that
we
most
of
us
use.
If
we're
having
a
board
meeting,
alderman
fleming
uses
it.
A
Sometimes
I
use
it
or,
if
we're
having
a
citywide
meeting,
even
if
it's
used
it's
a
huge
room,
that
is
really
two
rooms
and
it's
divided
for
smaller
meetings
by
a
partition,
and
this
is
one
of
those
partitions.
A
The
reason
it's
being
ordered
now
is
because,
if
it
was,
we
were
to
wait
until
the
time
it's
needed.
It's
like
a
three
or
four
month,
advance
notice,
because
it's,
I
guess
to
some
extent
a
custom-made
item.
This
is,
I
believe,
over.
I
think
the
numbers
over
three
hundred
thousand
dollars
that
the
foundation
is
spending
on
this
project.
A
It's
going
to
be
all
new
flooring,
new
counters,
a
special
sound
system
and
video,
so
that
meetings
can
be
streamed,
and
there
is
one
issue
in
this
memorandum
of
understanding,
and
that
is
this:
room
is
going
to
be
very
high
tech
once
it's
it's
been
renovated
and
the
rent
charged
for
outside
users
will
be
substantially
increased
and
it
was
discussed
with
our
city
manager
that
perhaps
some
arrangement
can
be
made
that
some
amount
of
that
increased
rent
could
go
to
the
foundation
for
increase
for
additional
renovations,
because
their
next
project
is
going
to
be
the
fitness
room
which
is
going
to
be
really
expensive.
A
And
I
see
lawrence
hemingway
is
staring
at
me
right
now
and
they
don't
want
the
regular
rent
that
we
always
charge.
But
if
there
is
any
additional
rent
that
we
can
that
we
can
charge
any
additional
money
into
the
foundation's
coffers
would
really
help
with
adding
to
the
money
used
for
the
fitness
room.
So
that
is
the
only
concern
in
the
mou
that
we
saw.
A
But
this
is
just
a
fabulous
project
and
if
you've
been
in
the
levy
center
lately
and
if
you've
seen
the
library
they
paid
for
that
they
did,
they
did
that
renovation
and
it's
really
quite
beautiful.
So
that's
all,
I
have
to
say,
and
also
they've
done,
they've
done
other
things
like
the
carpeting
in
the
hallway,
etc.
F
B
All
right
motion
passes:
a7
staff
recommends
city
council,
authorize
a
city
manager
to
execute
a
two-year
contract
for
landscape
maintenance,
at
crown
with
christy
webber
and
company
in
the
amount
of
55
215
dollars
each
year
for
a
total
of
110
thousand
four
hundred
thirty
dollars.
The
contract
would
allow
up
to
three
additional
year.
One
contract
extensions
in
the
discretion
of
the
city
funding
will
be
from
the
green
spray
fund,
which
has
a
21
budget
allocation
of
162
000.
I
move
approval.
F
Second,
I
have
audrey.
I
Fleming
yes,
so
I
took
this
off
just
for
the
same
question
that
mr
vasilkal
had.
I
did
read
the
memo,
but
given
that
you
know
we've
crowned
with
a
huge
investment
and
we've
talked
about,
you
know
the
crown
fund.
That's
going
to
do
some
of
the
reno,
not
renovations
the
maintenance.
Can
someone
just
speak
to
the
need
for
this
large
of
a
contract
there?
Why
they?
We
can't
use
you
know,
city
staff
or
a
current
contractor.
D
Good
evening
alderman
and
chairperson
dave
stomach
public
works
director,
the
green
waste
division,
which
is
the
division
that
would
maintain.
This
has
16
employees
and
they're
already
responsible
for
mowing
over
265
acres
of
grass
at
74
parks,
maintaining
47
playgrounds
and
16
sports
fields.
They
also
help
out
with
all
the
snow
removal
during
the
winter
when
this
facility
came
on
board
and
I'm
sorry,
they
actually
had
lost
an
employee
about
two
years
ago
through
a
budget
cut.
D
So
when
this
project
came
online,
the
the
2020
budget
actually
included
the
rehiring
of
a
position
for
greenways.
That
position
wasn't
supposed
to
start
until
halfway
through
the
year
when
the
facility
was
going
to
be
open
and
the
landscaping
complete.
D
But
then,
with
the
budget
cut
this
position,
was
this
proposed
position
to
bring
them
back
up
to
the
full
staff
that
they
once
had
was
not
hired,
and
we
don't
feel
that
we
have
the
staffing
right
now
to
be
able
to
undertake
the
additional
work
that
this
area
has
now.
One
of
the
main
differences
is
when
this
was
a
complete
turf
field,
grass
turf
field.
D
So
we
just
don't
have
the
staff
to
take
on
the
work
that's
required
by
the
new
landscape
at
robert
ground,
including
not
only
the
turf
area
but
there's
the
nomo
grass,
the
mounds
that
are
out
there,
that,
yes,
you
don't
have
to
mow,
but
you
have
to
weed
and
then
there's
lots
of
beddings
that
are
out
there
with
ornamental
grasses
in
it
some
with
bulbs,
you
have
a
vine
guardian
out
there
and
there's
127
new
trees
planted
out
there
as
well.
That
need
to
be
maintained.
D
So
this
is
a
lot
of
work
that
is
beyond
our
current
staff's
ability
to
do
and
do
properly
and
that's
why,
when
we
were
unable
to
hire
the
new
position,
we
went
out
to
bid
to
get
quotes
from
during
this
landscape
maintenance.
I
For
that,
I
have
one
more
question:
if
you
could
just
have
this
sort
of
referral
later
since
we're
on
the
topic,
I
would
be
interested
to
know
when
the
last
time
our
greenways
team
was
fully
staffed
and
when
we
kind
of
went
the
route
with
outsourcing
some
of
these
lawn
maintenance
contracts
that
can
be
for
some
time
next
year,
but
I'm
interested
to
see
the
difference
between
when
we
were
fully
staffed
and
doing
the
projects
in-house
and
when
we
started
outsourcing
the
work.
A
Yeah,
let's
take
a
look
at
what
we're
paying
for
this
contract.
Fifty
five
thousand
two
hundred
dollars,
you
hire
a
full-time
person
on
the
greenway
staff.
I
don't
think
one
full-time
person
on
the
greenway
staff
is
going
to
be
enough
to
fully
cover
the
corner
of
maine
and
dodge.
A
I
I
just
don't
see
that
I
think
this
is
probably
the
deal
of
the
century.
If
these
people
are
as
good
as
their
references
say,
they
are,
and
it
seems
that
they've
gotten
spectacular
references.
This
is
this
is
a
show
place
and
I
really
I'm
going
to
be
really
upset.
If
I
drive
by
robert
crown,
the
new
robber
crown
and
see
weeds
and
litter
and
trash
and
just
a
mess
on
that
corner.
A
So
if
christy
webber
for
52
200
a
year
can
bring
out
their
crew
and
clean
this
place
up
and
make
it
look
like
it's
supposed
to
look
week
after
week,
for
you
know
an
entire
year
and
then
the
second
year
I
mean
I,
I
say
our
staff
did
a
great
job.
You
know
finding
these
people,
because
I
I
don't
think
one
more
person
or
a
fully
staffed
greenways
is
going
to
do
it.
A
I'd
rather
see
the
parks
in
my
ward
maintained
and
the
parks,
and
your
wards
maintain-
and
you
know
sometimes
they
aren't
so
I
you
know,
let's
get
greenways
out
into
the
neighborhoods
and
let
this
professional
group
here
with
a
contract
do
robert
crown.
I
just
think
it's
a
very
good
deal
and
we
shouldn't
we
shouldn't
defeat.
It.
F
D
I
believe
you
need
a
motion
to
suspend
the
rules.
F
E
F
B
B
Thank
you
items
for
discussion.
Apw,
one
staff
recommends
direction
from
the
administration
public
works
committee
on
amending
the
number
of
refuge,
sanitation
cards
required
for
two
and
three
flat
buildings.
First.
A
If
there
is
a
two
flat
that
is
not
using
one
of
their
cans,
why
should
they
be
paying
for
pickup?
You
know,
I,
I
don't
think
I
I
don't
think
the
question
is
how
many
cans
should
a
three
flat
or
a
two
flat?
Have
I'm
saying
that
people
should
be
able
to
opt
out
if
they're
not
using
their
can
or
if
the
unit
is
vacant,
and
not
not
just
for
a
month
or
something?
A
B
B
B
D
Good
evening
again,
dave
stoneback
public
works
director.
It
is
the
policy
of
the
city
that
each
unit
be
given
a
solid
waste,
cart
and
therefore
charge
for
them.
Probably
the
most
three
one.
One
complaints
that
we
receive
in
the
city
is
about
overflowing.
Trash
cans
fly
dumping.
D
D
Gallon
cart,
and
the
table
also
indicates
that
only
20
of
the
two
flats
and
25
of
the
three
flats
are
taking
advantage
of
of
going
to
the
smaller
sized
carts.
Now,
if
there's
somebody
that
already
there's
a
two
flat
that
already
has
two
65
gallon
carts
and
they're,
saying
they
don't
need
one
of
those.
D
I
find
that
somewhat
challenging,
because
there's
always
a
situation
sometime
during
the
year
where
you're,
probably
gonna,
have
more
trash
than
what
two
families
can
throw
into
one
65-gallon
cart,
that's
how
we
look
at
it
and
therefore
we
staff
is
recommending
that
we
try
to
push
the
use
of
the
65
gallon
cards
rather
than
the
95
gallon
carts.
B
But
in
the
event
director
that
you
have
a
a
household
and
in
two
family
flats,
often
they're,
you
know
families
that
are
sharing
a
a
multi-family
and
you
have
a
family,
that's
composting
and
they're
recycling
and
they're.
You
know
doing
zero,
zero
waste,
grocery
shopping
and
all
of
the
above,
and
they
only
need
the
65
gallon
cart.
B
We
should
have
a
way
that
we
could
accommodate
them,
and
I
hear
what
you're
saying
that
it's
not
the
norm
but
in
the
okay,
for
example
like
if
you
use
all
sort
of
energy
efficient
practices
for
comed,
like
you,
don't
pay
extra
and
you
don't
have
to
pay
a
certain
amount.
You
can
actually
get
a
credit
back.
So
I
don't
think
it's
a
unusual
request,
especially
as
we're
encouraging
folks
to
have
less
waste.
D
Okay-
and
I
mean
if
this
is
the
world-
and
we
understand,
but
I
don't
know
how
we
then
regulate
it
from
somebody
like
up
by
northwestern
who
has
a
two
flat
and
they
say
well,
I
only
want
to
have
to
pay
for
one
65
gallon
cart.
I
don't
know
how
staff
will
be
able
to
differentiate
between
that
where
they
they're
constantly
using
the
services
and
they're.
Not
this
is
staff,
isn't
picking
up
the
cards
group
does
and
we're
not
going
to
get
a
report
back
from
groot
about
overflowing
trash
carts
like
this.
D
We
only
get
that
on
our
franchise
agreement,
not
at
the
13
some
thousand
stocks
that
they
they
make
at
all
the
single-family
residential
homes
and
two
flats,
three
flights.
A
I
you
know
dave,
I
understand
exactly
what
you're
saying
and
I
am
a
big
complainer
and
a
messenger
of
complaint
complaints
regarding
overflowing
trash
or
an
empty
can
with
a
big
bag
of
garbage
sitting
next
to
it.
So
I
I
hear
you
it
just
always
disturbs
me
when
we
make
our
regulations
based
on
bad
guys.
I
mean
it
just
it
just
really
bothers
me.
A
So
why
don't
we
not
get
rid
of
this
and
just
sort
of
keep
it
on
the
back
burner
and
there's
got
to
be
a
way
that
those
people
who
really
and
truly
do
not
need
that
cart
that
live
in
these
two
and
three
flats
that
that
they
should
be
rewarded
at
some
point
in
time,
and
maybe
we
can
figure
it
out.
I
I'm
not
sure,
but
it
wouldn't
be
for
large
buildings.
A
It
would
only
be
for
two
and
three
flats
and
I
I
can
certainly
see
why
it
shouldn't
even
be
considered
for
any
other
size
building.
But
I
I
want
to
continue
to
think
about
this,
but
I
I
understand
exactly
what
you're
saying
I
mean.
I
don't
know
what
we
would
do
if
that
were
to
happen.
You
know
people
started
calling
up
saying
I
have
a
two
flat.
A
B
Thank
you,
audrey
rainey
for
not
letting
it
go,
and
maybe
director,
if
you
could
work
with
kumar,
to
see
if
there
are
any
best
practices
in
other
cities
on
incentivizing
less
waste.
There
might
be
some
program
that
could
help
us
come
up
with
a
better
solution.
B

Good
evening,

of

stoneback
kumar
jensen,
chief
sustainability
and
resilience
officer
for
the
city.
I
don't
have
a
presentation
per
se
for
for
this
item,
but
I,
the
committee,
the
franchise
negotiating
committee,
did
see
that
it
believe
that
it
was
important
to
bring
this
letter
to
the
committee
for
for
feedback
and
review
prior
to
the
city
manager.
Sending
this
letter
on
to
comed
and
just
to
provide
a
little
bit
of
background.

The
the
franchise
negotiating
committee

up
of

has
staff
guidance
and
support
for
myself,
dave,
stoneback,
kimberly,
richardson
and
kelly
yandersky,
and
there
are
two
members
of
the
utilities
commission
that
sit
on
that
committee,
trucker,
partel
and
christopher
skee,
and
the
committee
has
been
meeting
really
since
the
summer,
but
particularly
since
september
and
october,
to
draft
this
letter.
J
And
the
goal
of
this
letter
is
to
communicate
very
clearly
from
you
know:
two
comed
from
the
city,
what
our
priorities
and
our
goals
are
in
negotiating
a
new
agreement
and
re-establishing
our
relationship
with
comed.
And
so
there
are
a
list
of
29
different
priorities
or
actions
within
within
the
letter.
J
We
think
it's
important
to
be
comprehensive,
but
those
29
actions
and
priorities
are
broken
out
into
four
goals,
three
of
which
were
are
sort
of
formal
adopted
goals
by
the
city
council
and
then
one
of
which
implementing
the
climate
action
and
resilience
plan
is
just
demonstrated
by
the
city
council's
support.
For
that,
and
so
I
would
be
glad
to
step
back
and
if
baldwin
rainey
has
anything.
J
I
should
like
to
to
say
as
a
member
of
the
committee,
but
then
I'd
be
glad
to
take
any
feedback
or
comment
from
from
committee
members.
C
Kumar
hi
and
dave.
Thank
you,
everyone
for
your
work
dave.
I
when
I
read
through
this,
you
know
the
parts
of
the
sixth
ward
that
have
frequent
outages.
C
Is
there
anything
in
there
emphasizing
the
importance
of
addressing,
and
I
know
that
there
are
likely
other
parts
of
the
city
that
have
similar
issues
addressing
and
prioritizing
those
areas.
J
J
The
way
that
we've
put
some
of
the
reliability
concerns
into
the
letter
have
been
in
the
way
that
comed
reports,
information
to
the
city
and
in
holding
we've
requested
that
they
commit
to
participate
in
public
forums,
and
so
some
of
those
would
be
for
residents.
Some
of
those
would
be
for
large
users.
J
I've
had
some
some
really
good
calls
of
some
of
the
large
users
in
evanston
to
better
understand
what
some
of
their
concerns
are
and
similarly
offer
from
residents,
and
so
comet
is
held
to
sort
of
you
know:
industry,
reliability,
standards
and
it's
regulated,
and
so
it's
fairly
difficult
for
the
city
to
impose
any
additional
restriction
or
requirement
from
a
reliability
standards
perspective.
But
we
do
think
that
we
can
get.
J
You
know
hopefully
close
that
feedback
loop
a
little
bit
better
to
help
help
comment
see
which
are
the
the
circuits
or
the
outages
that
are
causing
the
most
pain
for
the
city.
We
also
we
already
get
outage
information
from
comed,
but
there's
some
additional
information
and
having
them
come
and
listen
to
residents
share
what
some
of
their
concerns
are.
Businesses,
I
think,
could
improve
that.
B
Was
there
any
further
just
ottoman
rainey.
A
I
think
the
committee
should
know
that
kumar
did
a
just
an
absolutely
spectacular
job.
This
is
about
the
third
or
fourth
iteration,
because
the
committee
kept
coming
up
with
questions
and
and
responses
etc,
and
the
committee
that
is
much
smarter
than
I
all
agreed
that
this
is
a
very
excellent
message
to
come
ed
and
we
spent
a
lot
of
time.
A
Analyzing
chicago's
response
to
comed-
and
I
I
don't
know
when
the
last
time
was
both
chicago
and
I
know
evanson
never
has,
but
chicago
had
gone
without
a
franchise
agreement
mar
they
ever
gone
with
that
one
before.
A
A
Maybe
we
should
incorporate
something
specific
umar.
Do
you
think
we
should.
J
J
I
think
in
the
third
iteration
of
the
letter,
just
recognizing
that
we
don't
have
the
regulatory
authority
to
and
really
what
what
the
issue
was
is
we
were
having
a
difficult
time
coming
up
with
a
standard
that
we
could
hold
them
to
from
a
reliability
standpoint,
and
so
we
are
just
relying
on
what
has
already
been
established
by
the
state,
and
so
we
thought
that
by
trying
to
make
comment
more
visible
and
accountable
to
different
user
groups
like
large
users
and
customers,
that
would
be
a
more
effective
way
of
helping
them
understand
what
we
thought.
A
B
A
The
action
being
requested
is
that
erica
storley,
our
city
manager,
signed
the
sign
this
and
forwarded
on
to
commonwealth
medicine
is.
B
That
can
can
ottoman
just
give
direction
that
that
happens,
or
does
there
need
to
be
a
action
of.
B
J
Good
evening,
members
of
the
committee,
madam
chair,
so
kumar
jensen,
again
chief
sustainability
and
resilience
officer,
I
do
have
a
presentation.
I
recognize
we're
running
out
of
time
here,
so
I'm
glad
to
bring
up
the
presentation
and
get
through
it.
If
that
would
be
helpful
or
I
can,
I
can
just
explain
the
key
area
that
we're
seeking
feedback
on.
I
would
take
direction
from
the
chair
on
this.
B
I
would
be
okay
with
you,
paraphrasing
it
and
giving
us
the
key
points
for
consideration
and
discussion.
J
Excellent
okay,
so
the
the
program
in
a
nutshell,
is
a
program.
That's
provided
through
the
metropolitan
mayor's
caucus,
which
is
a
regional
council
of
governments
that
has
gone
out
and
competitively
bid.
Communities
is
competitively
selected.
A
group
of
solar
developers
to
provide
community
solar
subscriptions
to
residents
in
the
metropolitan
merit
caucus
area,
which
is
about
250
communities,
including
evanston,
and
so
this
program
is
free
for
communities
to
participate
in.
J
Essentially
we
would
we,
as
the
city
would
agree
to
participate
and
then
that
would
allow
evanston
residents
to
be
able
to
subscribe
to
community
solar
installations
in
through
this
program,
and
so
the
metropolitan
merits
caucus
would
take
care
of
the
majority
of
the
administrative
portion
of
this
actually
enrolling
people
sending
postcards
to
residents
taking
care
care
of.
All
of
that.
We
would
work
with
them
on
branding
and
a
language,
and
I'm
setting
up
a
web
page
and
things
like
that.
J
But
the
primary
benefits
of
community
solar
are
that
you
don't
need
to
have
a
roof
to
be
able
to
install
solar
on.
This
is
a
virtual
program
where
a
resident
or
a
small,
a
small
commercial
property
will
enroll
in
a
solar
installation.
J
That's
already
been
installed
somewhere
and
then,
through
that
program,
they
will
receive
that
subscriber
will
receive
a
subscription
credit,
and
so
the
standard
credit
is
a
20
20
off
the
supply
portion
of
their
electric
bill,
and
so
the
supply
portion
is
one
of
three
parts
of
your
electric
bill,
but
it
oftentimes
can
be
one
of
one
of
the
larger
ones,
and
so
that
is
the
standard
program
that
the
city
staff
are
moving
forward
with
launching
and
we
don't.
We
don't
actually
need
to
sign
any
agreements
with
anyone.
J
It
really
is
already
a
pretty
well
established
program
that
we
as
the
city
opt
into
and
then
can
begin
recruiting
residents.
The
agreement
for
the
subscription
is
actually
signed
between
the
resident
or
the
or
the
business
there's
only
about
100
businesses
in
evanston.
That
really
would
be
eligible
based
on
their
comment
service,
but
still
quite
a
few
would
be
between
the
subscriber
or
the
customer
and
the
developer.
J
Those
agreements
are
are,
are
then
sort
of
that
subscription
credit
is
then
owned
by
the
subscriber,
and
so
they
hold
on
to
that
pretty
much
as
long
as
they
have
a
comment
account,
so
they
can
carry
that
subscription
with
them
throughout
and
so
they're
guaranteed
a
cost
savings
compared
to
comed's
default
price
price.
To
compare-
and
so
we
think
about
this
program
as
a
third
option
in
ways
that
residents
would
be
able
to
purchase
renewable
energy
to
participate
in
renewable
energy.
J
The
first
is
our
aggregation
program,
electricity
aggregation
program,
and
the
second
is
installing
solar
on
your
house
or
your
business,
and
so
this
third
option,
we
think,
also
removes
some
of
the
barriers
for
residents
to
be
able
to
install
or
have
access
to
solar
energy.
It's
a
really
popular
program,
particularly
because
it
provides
a
cost
savings,
but
also
because
many
community
members
live
in
multi-unit
buildings
that
are
either
ill-equipped
or
unable
to
have
solar
on
them,
and
so
this
is
a
way
for
them
to
participate
in
having
affordable,
clean
energy.
J
Program
city
staff
is,
is
looking
to
pro
to
to
tweak
the
program
a
little
bit
to
try
to
provide
some
additional
value
to
low-income
residents,
and
so
the
way
that
we
are
proposing
to
do
this
is
that
the
the
20
subscription
value
or
the
credit
I'm
just
going
to
call
it
a
credit.
The
20
credit
that
a
subscriber
would
get
back
on
their
bill
that
amount
is,
is
actually
can
be
flexible
and
transferred
a
little
bit,
and
so
what
staff
is
proposing
is
to
give
residents
two
options.
J
The
one
option
is
just
to
sign
up
and
get
the
twenty
percent.
The
other
option
is
to
only
take
ten
percent
of
that
credit
and
that
other
ten
percent
we
would
actually
add
together
all
the
people.
That
said
they
wanted
to
only
do
ten
percent.
We
got
ten
people
that
said,
yes,
you
know
what
I'll
take
a
little
bit
lower
I'll.
J
Take
that
ten
percent
credit
we'll
add
those
ten
together
and
we'll
actually
bundle
those
and
give
them
to
a
low
income
evanston
resident
so
that
they
get
a
100
off
of
the
supply
portion
of
their
bill,
and
so
there
are.
There
is
one
sort
of
hiccup
in
this
hole
in
the
in
recommending
this
process,
and
that
is
that
we
have
sought
some
legal
counsel
on
whether
or
not
we're
allowed
to
do
that,
since
it's
not
a
standard
option,
and
essentially
we
are
allowed
to
do
that.
J
But
since
those
subscription
credits
would
then
become
sort
of
be
owned
by
that
by
that
low-income
resident
or
account
holder
the
city.
If
that
person
were
to
move
outside
of
evanston
and
stay
within
the
comment
territory,
that
person
would
take
that
that
subscription
with
them
and
the
city
wouldn't
have
any
sort
of
legal
ability
to
claw
that
back.
We
could
ask
that
they
signed.
You
know,
sort
of
a
good
faith
agreement
saying
that
they
would
relinquish
it.
But
we
would
not.
J
You
know,
pursue
that
legally
or
or
try
to
call
that
back
in
any
way,
such
as
like
imposing
fees
or
fines,
and
so
what
I'm?
What
my
question
is
what
I
feel
staff
new
direction
on
is
what,
given
that
caveat
of
potentially
having
those
hundred
percent
subscriptions
move
outside
of
edmondson
at
some
point,
it's
not
guaranteed
that
they
will,
and
I
have
no
reason
to
believe
that
the
majority
of
them
would
whether
or
not
that
is
an
option
that
you
would
like
staff
to
include.
B
So
yes,
this
is
wonderful.
I
guess
my
question
is
in
terms
of
the
qualification:
is
there
a
way
to
to
measure
someone's
residency
to
date
and
that
as
an
indicator
on,
if
they
are
a
long-time
long-term
resident,
so
maybe
two
years
residency
in
evanston?
Does
that
have
any
indication
on
anything?
You
know
just
thinking
of
ways
that
we
can
protect
it
so
that
it
is
a
service
and
benefit
available
to
evans
residents
that
intend
to
stay
here,
seeing
that
we
can't
really
enforce
them,
you
know
releasing
the
benefit
right.
B
J
Absolutely
I
think
there
are
some
ways
for
us
to
determine
that
we
do
get
an
account
list
from
comed
for
another
program
that
we
do
where
we
can
actually
see
the
date
that
their
account
was
created,
and
so
we
can
see
that
we
have
some
people
that
have
that
have
had
the
same,
combat
account
number
for
40
years,
and
so
there
are
some
ways
that
we
could
potentially
look
at
that
I'm
not
entirely
sure
how
we
would
be
able
to
make
decisions
on
who
would
receive
that
subscription.
J
Based
on
that,
but
I
think
that
is
information.
We
could.
I
J
Well,
so,
what's
been
what's
been
made
clear
to
us:
is
that
well
so
the
way
that
the
transaction
works
is
that
when
you,
when
someone
moves
an
address
anywhere,
if
they're
in
evanston
or
moving
outside
of
edmonton,
their
comment
service
that
that
existing
address
is
turn
is
shut
off
and
whoever
moves
in
there
after
them
gets
a
new
account
number.
So
if
I
move
from
you
know,
you
know
100
main
street
in
evanston
to
200
main
street
in
evanston,
I
actually
get
a
new
account
number
moving
to
200
main
street.
J
My
account
number
doesn't
move
with
me
and,
as
that
process
happens,
the
subscription
actually
will
stay
with
me
into
that
new
account.
It
is
the
metropolitan
mayor's
caucus
responsibility
and
make
sure
that
transition
happens
with
comed,
and
so,
if
someone
moves
outside
of
evanston,
we
would
know
that
they
moved
outside
of
evanston,
but
we
wouldn't
have
any
real
recourse
to
be
able
to
hold
on
to
that
that
credit
for
them.
B
Is
there
any
further
discussion
automating
did
you
have
something.
B
Kumar,
do
you
have
enough
direction
or
what?
What
else
do
you
need
to
actually
make
this
happen?
We
need
this.
J
Yeah,
I
think
what
we
could,
what
maybe
we
could
do
is
we
could
we
could
launch
this?
I
mean,
I
think
I
do.
I
think,
we're
just
going
to
go
ahead
and
launch
it,
and
once
we've
had
the
our
legal
team
review
the
structure
that
we're
proposing
you
know
the
plan
is
to
launch
this
in
mid-january,
launching
the
default
program
where
everyone
gets
20
off,
like
that's
very
easy
for
us
to
just
go
ahead
and
do
but
it's
mostly
the
complexity
is
trying
to
figure
out.
J
How
do
we
identify
who
the
potential
low
income
their
subscribers
could
be
for
the
long
long-come
program,
and
then
I
think
we
just
essentially
say
we
would
encourage
them
to.
You
know
voluntarily
return
their
subscription
back
to
the
evanston
pool,
but
we
won't
enforce.
You
know
we
won't
go
after
them
if
they
decide
not
to
now.
J
If
they
move
outside
of
the
comed
territory,
that
subscription
would
revert
back
into
into
our
pool
is
my
understanding
so
that
that
is
the
approach
that
I
would
propose
we
take,
and
if
the
committee
is
things
that
appropriate,
we
would
be
glad
to
come
back
and
provide
an
update.
You
know
in
march
or
april
to
let
you
know
how
things
are
going.
B
Yeah
absolutely
and
kumar.
I
recommend
that
you
work
with
all
of
our
partners
that
have
energy
saving
and
utility
saving
programs
and
have
a
info
session
of
sorts
for
the
community
at
large
on
various
ways
that
they
can
reduce
their
carts
to
65
gallons
compost.
B
You
know:
zero
waste,
grocery
shopping
energy
savings
with
comed,
whatever
nicor
has,
if
you
could
put
that
all
together
the
peak
time
savings
would
come
in
all
of
those
are
great
and
they
all
add
up
to
savings
that
can
be
used
for
something
that
families
need.
B
Thank
you
and
if
there
is
no
further
discussion,
are
there
any
items
for
communication?
E
B
I
can
we
are
going
to
support
kumar
in
a
partnership
that
will
save
energy
and
dollars
for
combat
consumers.
