A
That's
that's
everyone,
so
welcome.
Welcome
everybody
to
the
Monday
July
30
to
2020
Evanston,
City
Council
meeting.
We
have
all
of
our
aldermen
present
this
evening.
I
know
alderman
Fisk
and
suffered
and
are
here
they've
been
at
the
committee
meetings
and
and
they'll
be
they'll,
be
here
in
a
minute,
as
I've
been
doing
lately.
I
just
want
to
give
everyone
a
quick
update
on
two
topics:
one
is
the
pandemic
and
where
things
stand
on
that
front
and
then
with
deep
dive
that
we're
doing
as
a
community,
it's
a
potent
set.
A
So
in
terms
of
the
pandemic
and
code
code
of
19
in
Evanston,
the
news
continues
to
be
positive.
Today,
for
instance,
we
had
only
three
new
cases
and
zero
deaths
are
7
day.
Moving
average
in
terms
of
new
cases
is
two
a
day,
so
that
continues
to
be
really
positive
news
for
us
overall
820
cases
and
sadly
771
fatalities.
Those
fatalities
have
really
slowed
down.
Obviously,
as
the
number
of
cases
has
slowed
down.
As
everyone
knows,
we
are
in
phase
four
of
Governor
Pritzker's
restore
Illinois
plan.
A
The
data
that
we
all
need
to
be
watching
and
paying
attention
to
is
our
statewide
data
available
within
this
region
here
of
the
Chicagoland
region
in
the
Northeast
region.
On
that
front,
the
data
isn't
as
good.
We
have
seen
our
seven
day
moving
average
at
the
state
level
increase
52
percent
since
our
low
of
621
cases
on
June
18th.
A
A
The
positivity
rates
statewide
is
at
three
percent
and
that's
really
good
news
for
us,
but
it
is
creeping
up
and
what
we're
seeing
is
we're
seeing
the
number
a
disproportionate
number
of
positive
cases
be
among
young
people,
so
those
that
are
teenagers
are
in
their
in
their
20s
and
it
is
so
important
that
all
of
us
follow
the
directives
of
the
public
health
authorities.
This
can
quickly
escalate
and
we
can
even
find
ourselves
back
into
Phase.
Three
or
even
worse,
into
Phase
two
we're
all
under
a
stay
at
home
order.
A
A
I'll
say
what
I
said
at
the
beginning
of
this
disaster
is
that
we
will
make
decisions
the
same
way
and
follow
the
lead
at
the
governor's
office
in
making
decisions
which
are
fact-based,
science-based
expert,
informed
decision-making,
and
that's
that's
what
we've
done
and
that's
what
we'll
continue
to
do
so
again
here
in
Evanston,
the
news
is
good.
At
the
state
level,
the
numbers
are
creeping
up.
The
positivity
rate
again
is
good.
The
positivity
rates
8y
is
good
at
3%
in
Evanston.
A
A
So
let's
keep
up
the
good
work
that
we're
doing.
Everybody
should
know
this
by
now
masks
when
you're
indoors
and
in
any
place
when
you're
outdoors-
and
you
can't
maintain
six
feet
this
distance,
you
should
be
where
you
should
be
wearing
a
mask.
If
you're
going
to
our
beach
and
I
know,
a
lot
of
people
are
going
to
each
you
have
to
wear
a
mess
to
come
on
onto
the
beach.
So
that's
important.
We
have
reduced
the
number
of
people
that
are
on
the
beaches
to
a
fifty
percent
capacity.
A
In
that
seven
day,
moving
average
of
a
state
level
increasing
the
one
other
data
point
I
didn't
want
to
share
is
the
infection
rate
on
the
infection
rate
is
how
many
people
one
person
with
over
19,
how
many
other
people
they'll
infect
you
want
to
have
that
infection
rate
below
1.0
and
we
were
below
that
number
for
a
while
that
has
crept
up
and
so
that
infection
rate
right
now
here
in
the
state
of
Illinois
is
now
one
point.
One
two
and
I
can
tell
you
a
few
weeks
ago.
A
It
was
down
in
like
4.8
and
if
you
look
at
the
states
where
there's
a
real
outbreak,
that
number
is
much
higher
than
if
that
infection
rate.
If
you
have
teenagers
or
you
have
young
adults,
please
stress
to
them
that
you
know
it's
imperative
that
they
take
the
same
precautions
and
procedures
that
you
are
taking
or
other
people
are
taking,
because
all
it
takes
is
for
a
young
person
to
have
it.
A
G
A
So
I'll
get
the
last
situation
reports,
so
in
Evanston
the
Emergency
Operations
Center
is
still
still
active.
We've
operated
on
the
seven-day
period
now,
and
so
it
meets
on
Wednesday,
so
I'm.
Looking
at
last
Wednesday's
report
and
the
the
number
said,
our
Senior
Center
continue
to
look
good,
just
like
all
our
numbers,
citywide
and
again,
hospitalizations
are
way
down.
So
that's
that's
a
good
sign.
A
Overall
again,
if
we
look
at
the
overall
numbers,
we
have
we've
had
230
resident
cases
within
our
senior
living,
centers
and
I
mentioned
up
front
if
it
820
cases.
So
our
that's
running,
you
know
a
little
more
than
25
percent
of
the
cases
have
been
in
senior
in
stimulating
centers,
but
we
haven't
had
well.
We've
had
some
some
bad
situations
at
a
few
of
our
senior
living
centers,
absolutely
in
terms
of
fatalities.
In
the
number
of
cases
we
haven't
recently
seen
a
big
spike
in
those
numbers.
To
my
knowledge,
thank
you
over.
A
Yeah
all
the
members,
Simmons
I,
don't
I,
don't
know
much
other
than
I
know
that
the
the
city
of
Chicago
placed
travel
restrictions
on
people
that
are
coming
in
from
certain
certain
states
where
there's
a
lot
of
cases
right
now,
and
so,
if
they're
traveling
into
Chicago,
they
are
from
self-certifying
or
agreeing
that
when
they
come
here,
they
will
self
isolate
for
a
pier
for
a
period
of
time
and
it's
sort
of
the
honor
system.
There's
no
way
to
sort
of
monitor
that
I'm
not
aware
if
the
state
has
done
those
same
restrictions.
I
know.
A
Other
states
have
like,
like
New
York,
State
I,
believe
in
this
as
she
says,
but
this
was
something
that
Chicago
did.
I
did
have
a
few
residents
come
to
me
say:
hey
mayor
Evanston
needs
to
do
this
in
my
response
to
that
it
is
similar
to
it's
been
on
a
lot
of
these
issues
that
you
know
the
governor's
office
has
you
know
the
most
resources
and
the
experts
in
people
that
are
literally
working
24/7,
and
you
know
because
of
the
philosophy
that
they're
taking,
which
is
science-based
fact
based
expert
based.
A
You
know
I
think
it's
important
for
us
as
a
city
to
rely
on
rely
on
them
and
their
expertise.
So
we
haven't
here
in
Evanston,
put
anything
in
place
that
tells
people
hey
if
you're
coming
from
one
of
these
other
locations
you
need
to
I
would
obviously
advise
all
of
our
residents
to
exercise
really
good
judgement.
If
you
want
to
keep
our
communities
safe
and
your
family
safe,
it's
best
to
again
abide
by
all
the
directives
of
the
public
health
officials.
A
Let
me
give
travel
to
the
extent
that
you
can
certainly
to
these
more
high
risk
states
where
there's
a
high
number
of
cases.
The
second
update
I,
wanted
to
give
folks
was
on
the
police
in
series
that
we're
doing
in
the
deep
dive
that
we're
doing
into
inter
policing,
there's
a
movements
going
on
all
around
the
country
and
here
in
Evanston,
as
well,
about
looking
at
these
budgets
and
police
operations,
whether
that
be
use
of
force,
whether
that
be
the
equipment
that
our
police
are
using
and
so
I
set
up
a
series
of
those
conversations.
A
Today.
We
just
had
our
second
one
and
it
was
on
Evanston
police
department
budget
and
that
will
be
on
channel
16
people
to
see
it'll
run
several
times,
just
like
their
City
Council
meeting
to
do.
You
can
also
find
it
on
Facebook
on
the
city's
Facebook
page
and,
and
it
was
a
good
I
thought
it
was
a
good
session.
A
So
that
could
be
in
the
areas
of
investments
in
the
area,
housing,
workforce
development,
and
so
we
had
that
session.
Today
we
had
a
social
Northwestern
University
sociology,
professor
Andrew
Papa
Christos,
who
joined
us
who's.
One
of
his
areas
of
expertise
is
on
policing
around
the
country
and
he
mentioned
an
organization
that
I
just
wanted
to
share
with
folks,
because
one
of
the
things
that
you
may
want
to
look
at
is
okay.
How
many
officers
do
we
have
per
capita?
A
You
know
so
how
many
officers
relative
to
the
number
of
people
that
we
have
in
town?
You
compare
that
to
other
communities
around
the
country
and
there's
a
really
good
organization.
That's
doing
that
that
called
Vera,
the
ER
a.org.
If
you
go
to
Vera
dot,
org
and
you
go
to
publications
and
then
there's
a
publication,
what
policing
costs
in
America's,
big
cities,
you
will
see
a
map
of
the
country
and
you
can
click
on
those
cities
Evanston.
A
We
have
one
officer
in
Evanston
for
every
five
hundred
and
thirty
residents.
As
a
point
of
comparison,
the
city
of
Chicago
has
one
officer
for
every
hundred
and
eighty
three
resident
they're.
So
it's
worth
spending
a
little
time
at
that
website
and
you
can
at
least
get
a
sense
of
other
communities.
Other
ones
that
are
similar
to
us
in
terms
of
ratio
is
Fargo.
North
Dakota
of
Raleigh.
Excuse
me:
Fargo
North,
Dakota,
Raleigh,
North,
Carolina,
San,
Jose,
San
Diego
had
similar
ratios.
That
haven't
said
that
so
I
thought
that
was
I
thought.
That
was
interesting.
A
A
We
are
at
noon,
it
will
be
alive
and
that
will
be
with
Evanston
Police,
Department,
Northwestern
University
et
HS
and
district
65,
and
we're
going
to
talk
about
the
kind
of
coordination
collaboration
that
goes
on
about
resource
officers
and
whether
this
is
good
or
bad
and
we'll
have
a
good
conversation
about
that.
Then
that
following
Monday
at
our
next
the
day
of
our
next
city
council,
meeting
Monday
22,
July
27th
we'll
be
having
a
session
on
use
of
force
in
body
cameras
here
in
Evanston
and
then
on
August
3rd.
A
So
that's
a
I
just
want
to
give
an
update
on
that's
where
we
are
there
and
then
the
last
thing
is.
We
have
a
proclamation
that
I
give
I'm
not
going
to
read
it
this
month
or
at
this
meeting,
but
it
was
a
proclamation
declaring
July
parks
and
recreation
and
I
can't
think
of
a
better
month
in
July,
because
so
many
people
are
out
there
using
them
and
even
in
the
pandemic.
A
Many
people
are
out
there
enjoying
the
parks
and
recreation
that
we
offer
it.
It
is
different.
This
year
summer
camps
are
different
issue.
Their
beaches
are
a
little
different
in
this
all
sorts
of
rules,
but
we
have
a
terrific
Parks
and
Rec
Department
people
that
work
being
incredibly
hard
on
our
behalf.
In
years
past
they
have
been
finalists
for
an
award
and
they
are
again
this
year
up
for
that
award.
They
have
not
taken
home,
the
gold
that
come
close
and
so
we're
gonna
keep
our
fingers
crossed,
but
I
think
interim
and
adjust
orally
I.
A
J
K
K
Our
special
recreation
division
remains
committed
to
having
many
of
our

J

F
J
I
just
wanted
to
say
you
know
we're
real
excited.
We
appreciate,
you
know
the
council
support
city
managers
thoroughly
as
well
as
the
mayor.
You
know
we
appreciate
everybody
support
through
it.
You
know
we
work
very
hard
to
especially
this
summer
trying
to
get
back
to
some
sense
of
normalcy.
So
hopefully
the
video
just
shows
some
of
the
things
that
we
do
is
a
small
portion
of
what
we
do,
but
we
appreciate
all
your
support
and
trying
the
hell.
A
F
M
Do
Thank
You
Lawrence
for
that
I
thought
that
was
wonderful
and
mr.
mayor
I
I
watched
your
program
today,
no
I
thought
that
was
fabulous
and
I'm
so
glad
that
you're
dealing
with
these
issues
that
are
as
so
emotionally
and
charged,
but
dealing
with
them
in
a
professional
and
positive
and
just
informative
way.
M
I
I
thought
you
did
a
great
job
and
I'm
looking
forward
to
the
continuing
conversations,
I
hope
everyone
will
listen
and
I'm,
hoping
that
we
can
put
them
somewhere,
combine
them
so
that
we
can
point
folks
who
are
writing
to
us
by
email.
We
can
point
to
the
page,
and
so
anyone
who
may
have
missed
it
can
you
know,
check
in
on
all
of
the
meetings
you
know
online
in
a
very
easy
way
to
understand.
So
thank
you
for
that.
M
A
N
N
F
F
I
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
have
two
short
announcements.
The
first
one
is
that
we
are
changing
the
hours
of
access
to
these
stand
areas
of
the
beach.
So,
as
many
of
you
know,
we
staff
the
beach
and
we
have
it
open
for
swimming
from
10:00
to
10:00
or
10:30
in
the
morning
until
7:30
at
night.
That
is
not
changing.
I
The
swimming
hours
of
the
beach
will
stay
the
same,
but
what
we're
encountering
lately
is
a
desire
for
people
to
enter
the
water
after
the
lifeguards
have
left,
which
is
an
unsafe
situation,
and
we
want
to
deter
people
from
doing
that.
So
right
now
we're
going
to
be
changing
the
hours
of
the
sand
area
to
close
at
9:00
p.m.
instead
of
11
p.m.
that
doesn't
change
the
park
hours
of
the
green
space.
So
if
people
want
to
continue
to
participate
in
activities
at
the
parks,
they're
welcome
to
do
that
until
11
p.m.
I
but
we
will
be
closing
access
to
the
sand
and
never
sorry,
there's
a
lot
more
people
accessing
the
beach
or
the
hot
weather.
That's
been
sustained
over
the
past
couple
of
weeks,
so
we
did
have
a
tragic
drowning.
A
couple
last
week
and
I
want
to
prevent
anything
like
that
from
happening
again
in
the
future.
Some
people,
please
use
your
due
diligence
that
under
the
water,
if
there's
not
a
lifeguard
present
and
please
appear
to
the
guidelines
that
we've
set
forth,
so
that
is
the
first
announcement.
I
The
second
announcement
is,
there
has
been
a
few
other
area
communities
who
have
decided
to
start
doing
their
meetings
in
person,
their
City
Council
meetings
in
various
ways
that
may
or
may
not
work
for
us.
This
has
been
a
question.
That's
come
up
over
the
past
month
and
I'm
going
to
be
putting
it
on
the
Rules
Committee
agenda
for
August
for
us
to
discuss
it.
I'm
not.
K
I
That
any
of
the
modes
that
are
currently
being
used
for
in-person
meetings
make
sense
for
Evanston,
but
I
would
like
for
the
council
to
share
their
opinions
and
thoughts
on
what
makes
sense
for
us
going
forward
and
if
we
just
continue
to
do
remote
meetings
for
the
foreseeable
future,
if
you
do
some
some
kind
of
different
variation,
so
I,
just
the
public
knows
we'll
talk
about
that
at
Rules.
Committee.
Next.
A
A
B
A
Right,
thank
you.
Okay,
I'm,
going
to
turn
to
public
comment
tonight.
We
have
and
Luke
you'll.
Let
me
know
if
there's
additional
people,
but
the
list
that
I
received
at
7:00
residents
haven't
signed
up
for
public
comment
evening,
as
everyone
knows
be
set
aside.
45
minutes
for
public
comment,
no
more
than
three
minutes
per
person
served
this
evening.
If
you
have
less
than
15
people,
everyone
will
get
up
to
3
minutes.
If
you
need
it.
So
the
speakers
this
evening
I'll
just
share
the
order
of
all
of
them.
A
So
you
know,
but
without
Lindy
Bell
boss,
Nicholas
Davis,
Mike,
Visoko,
Liana,
Renee,
Wallace,
Rae,
Freeman,
Doreen
price
I'm,
Bret
hologram.
Will
here
we'll
be
our
speakers
and
then
Luke
you
can.
Let
me
know
if
anybody
else
signs
up
and
I'll
add
them
to
the
end.
If
anyone
else
we
sign
up
there,
so
we
will
start
off
with
Wendy
Bell
boss
and
then
it'll
be
Nikolas
Davis
and
myself
welcome
Linda,
okay,.
O
Good
evening,
good
evening,
mayor
and
aldermen
a
couple
things
I
would
like
to
speak
with
you
about
the
economic
development
department.
Alderman
Wilson
will
be
speaking
or
bringing
up
Edie
with
the
Chicago
North
Shore,
Visitors,
Bureau
I,
know
they're
getting
$41,000
and
I
understand
that's
less
than
what
they
have
allocated
for
2020
budget,
along
with
downtown
Evanston,
is
receiving
50
thousand
for
trash
removal
in
marketing.
As
president
of
the
Evanston
Lennox
Business
Alliance
I
am
asking
to
work
with
the
downtown
Evanston
and
help
market
besides
their
zone.
So
we've
got
several
Latin.
O
Businesses
are
over
there
zone,
but
if
they
can
kind
of
collaborate
in
marketing
for
them
and
attach
their
information
to
their
newsletters,
I
think
that
this
money
for
marketing
and
he's
I
really.
We
need
to
really
look
and
see
where
that
money's,
going
and
also
the
trash
removal
I
was
leading
of
the
city
of
Evanston,
took
care
of
trash.
Mobile
I
didn't
think
that
the
organization
themselves
had
to
pay
for
those.
The
mobile
number
two
amnesty
program
leak
and
I've
been
talking
about
an
amnesty
program,
2017
I
believe
as
quarter.
O
One
was
the
last
amnesty
program
that
Wilson
had
told
me
about
over
Wilson,
but
there
was
according
to
Luke,
it
wasn't
successful,
so
they
were
not
thinking.
The
city
was
not
thinking
about
doing
it
again
being
in
the
media.
I'm.
Probably
one
of
the
first
people
to
know
about
everything
and
I
didn't
hear
about
it
that
so
I
was
told
over
the
weekend
that
the
boot
roundup
would
begin.
Today.
Luke
spoke
with
me
via
email
said
it
may
be
next
week.
O
I,
don't
think
we
should
have
any
boot
roundup
until
after
the
pandemic,
I
do
believe
any
amnesty
program
and
when
even
least
30
days
for
our
residents
to
come
in
and
pay
their
tickets,
I
also
offered
free
advertising
and
free
promotion
to
work
hard
and
get
people
in
to
pay
their
tickets.
I.
Don't
believe
that
it
should
be
community
members
right
now,
especially
the
black
and
brown
we're
hit
hard
with
Tobin,
but
they
should
be
worried
about
missing
or
losing
their
car
as
well.
O
F
O
A
D
Evening
everybody
so
I
wanted
to
address
the
mayor's
continued
conversations
on
policing
I
listening
today.
Mary
have
you
said
that
once
he's
holding
the
session?
One
reason
he's
holding
the
session
is
to
learn.
I
wanted
to
know
what
specifically,
he
was
trying
to
figure
out
what
you
want
to
learn
more
about,
because
I
know
that
Emma
Smith
fight
for
black
lives
had
a
teaching
session
outside
on
June
10th.
D
It
seems.
There's
a
lot
of
people
within
the
city
of
Everson
across
different
offices.
Think
that
defunding
abolition
of
people's
interests
and
investing
in
people
in
communities
is
just
a
trend,
among
that
you,
when
one
school
starts,
and
certainly
whenever
coke
at
19
has
been
properly
dealt
with
and
I,
think
people
be
wrong
to
assume
that
and
the
other
thing
that
we'll
talk
about
say
during
the
meeting
about
policing
was
that
deep
funding
requires
reducing
the
number
of
police.
D
D
D
One
possibility,
or
an
example
of
reimagining,
could
look
like
breaking
down
the
budget
by
task
force
and
reimagining
finances
that
way,
Tennyson
has
their
neighborhood
enforcement
team,
which
is
responsible
for
drugs
and
gangs.
She's
public
explained
earlier
today
and
while
I'm
not
oblivious
to
the
fact
that
one
has
dros
and
gangs.
Excuse
me
investing
in
community
through
employment,
education,
health
and
human
service
just
and
transform
just
this
century
approaches
to
crime.
It
must
insist,
alleviates
the
root
causes
of
drugs
and
gang
crime,
not
more
policing.
D
So,
looking
at
new
funding
through
one's
a
task
force
allocation
he'll
be
an
area
that
people
that
listen
I
think
doesn't
need
as
much
funding
as
it
gets.
If
the
peak,
if
the
budget
was
widely
publicized
to
take
Englewood
Pullman
and
one
of
the
other
Chicago
neighborhoods,
there's
some
city
and
employees
of
Evanston
community
shooting
some
city,
employees
leave
evidence
and
community
members
calling
for
defunding
to
take
a
trip
to
take
a
trip
to.
D
In
order
to
appreciate
our
police
force
award,
those
neighborhoods
I'm
assuming
were
named
because
of
their
higher
crime
rate
and
lower
income
statistics
relative
to
Evanston.
They
also
have
some
of
the
highest
police
presences
in
the
country.
They
have
more
task
force's
spending,
money
on
them
in
other
areas
of
the
city,
and
yet
those
residents
also
have
the
most
issues
with
police
areas
of
the
city
that
are
underfunded,
like
that.
D
Excuse
me
have
some
of
the
best
to
me
alternatives
to
policing,
because,
along
with
being
son,
most
vulnerable
people
in
the
population
that
also
makes
them
more
likely
victims
of
crimes
at
the
hands
of
police.
We
should
not
have
to
wait
until
our
communities
look
like
this
before
we
start
from
departments
like
many
police
departments
have
across
the
nation
are
investing
them
into
our
communities.
The
professor
on
the
call
said
that
not
only
does
the
funding
come
down
to
personnel,
what
we
want
the
police
to
actually
do.
This
is
right.
D
After
he
mentioned
restorative
justice
programs
and
increasingly
popular
excuse
me,
popular
and
accessible
option
is
to
invest
in
independent
of
the
police
department.
People
tend
to
think
of
concepts
very
rigidly,
but
the
concept
of
defunding
is
not
solely
about
taking
one
away
from
police
and
does
not
exist
in
a
vacuum.
It's
also
about
having
people
have
a
voice
that
yields
decision-making
power
and
we
working
for
them.
D
It's
about
spending
more
money
on
effective
training
and
personnel,
development,
professional
development
and
hiring
practices
and
negotiating
contracts
with
the
FOP
that
allow
officers
to
actually
both
be
held
accountable
for
their
actions
and
their
implicit
biases.
It's
about
not
spending
money
to
continue
to
pay
officers
who
have
already
realized
people,
not
spending
money
on
those
same
officers
by
promoting
them
and
then
paying
their
pensions
after
they
retired
and
have
tax
payer
dollars
and
settlements
due
to
these
officers
behavior.
So
that's
what
I
wanted
to
talk
about
and
I
appreciate
the
time
tonight.
Thank
you.
A
E
E
There
was
no
documentation
submitted
with
a
packet
and
yet
I
understood
from
a
draft
minutes
from
the
library
meeting
that
took
place
and
in
June
that
Lord
Biggs
was
planning
to
present
a
plan
for
approval
tonight.
Potentially
so,
there's
there's
no
backup,
there's
nothing
for
the
citizens
to
study
in
advance.
There
was
nothing
for
the
council
to
study
in
advance,
and
yet
this
appeared
on
the
agenda
so
I'd
like
that
all
of
them
suffered
in
to
remove
that
item.
Sp
2
during
the
8
p.m.
w
discussion,
whether
it
was
intended
or
not.
E
Laura
Biggs
also
said
something
about
a
pending
change
order.
For
robert
crown,
it
sounded
like
it'll
push
the
rival
crown
over
budget
and
an
excess
of
the
contingency
that
was
built
into
the
budget.
So
you
had
a
consent
to
see
for
change
orders,
but
it
sounds
like
you're
going
to
run
over
and
she
did
not
say
how
much
that
was
going
to
be
I
like
to
know
that
Deb
tied
him
to
the
other
discussion
item
18,
but
change
orders,
especially
on
any
project,
but
especially
on
that
project.
E
Where
it's
you
know,
2
or
3
times
what
was
originally
forecast
to
cost
change
order
has
to
be
approved
by
the
City
Council
and
that
work
should
not
be
taking
place.
If
there's
a
change
order
pending
the
work
should
not
go
forward
until
you
approve
whatever.
That
number
is
so
I'd
like
to
know
what
that
number
is
also
during
a
P&W
and
I.
Just
don't
understand
how
these
things
happen.
E
P
Everyone,
my
name,
is
Liana
I'm,
an
ETH
grad
class
of
2019
I'm,
a
rising
sophomore
at
Georgetown
University
on.
Thank
you
all
for
your
time
tonight.
So
dear
mayor,
Haggerty
and
alderman
on
June
17th
of
this
year,
I
haven't
sinned.
P
After
speaking
with
the
mayor
on
June
19th
mayor
Haggerty
out
rightly
stated
that
he
would
not,
he
would
not
commit
to
be
fined
the
police
agony
emphasized
whose
comfort,
with
the
word
defunding
and
said,
Hager,
to
use
the
words
we
imagine
and
examine
often
addressing
the
personal
changes
he
was
willing
to
make.
This
goes
to
show
that
our
mayor
does
not
understand
the
urgency
and
importance
of
taking
funding
away
from
the
police
and
investing
in
our
community.
P
Mary
Hegarty,
ultimately
did
not
and
will
not
commit
to
be
funding
or
signing
her
official
statement
only
promise
to
rig
them
and
the
police
budget,
which
is
already
responsibilities
of
its
job.
Since
the
initial
meeting,
we
have
consistently
pushed
the
mayor
to
engage
with
community
members
in
an
authentic
manner
instead
of
holding
forums.
True
Q&A
sessions
and
community
verse
Asians,
the
mayor
has
affected
issues
of
policing.
They
were
highly
performed.
A
series
of
talks
that
limit
community
voices
to
those
he
deems
fit
to
speak.
I
really
appreciate
what
Nick
Davis
mentioned.
P
I
really
think
is
important
that
we
bring
in
community
voices
that
are
not
centered
and
that
it
start
from
the
bottom
up
rather
front
rather
than
from
the
top
down.
In
those
conversations
on
June
23rd
of
this
year,
mayor
Haggerty
released
a
statement
outlining
the
ways
in
which
the
city
of
Evanston
is
directly
standing
against
racism.
Although
Evanston
has
various
equity
based
initiatives,
how
are
these
initiatives
actually
playing
out
so
in
regards
to
the
equity
Commission?
Why
does
it
still
have
to
unfold
vacancies?
Did
anyone
ever
replace
fpm?
What
is
the
operationalize
equity
project?
P
They
are
supposed
to
be
working
on,
and
why
is
there
no
report
about
it
in
the
most
recent
packet
and
why
rhythm,
March
and
May
meetings
canceled
in
regards
to
the
racial
equity
resolution?
It
states
that
Evanston
will
join
the
government
Alliance
of
race
and
equity.
Did
they
do
so?
What
meetings
or
programs
have
city
staff
attended?
P
Are
they
working
with
your
on
a
racial
equity,
audit
of
city
policies
and
racial
equity
toolkit
in
regards
to
the
alternative
to
arrest
committee
as
it
is
it
even
still
meeting
according
to
the
website,
the
members
terms
are
all
expired
and
the
most
recent
packet
listed
is
from
December
2019.
There
was
an
agenda
listed
from
March
2020,
but
no
packet
in
regards
to
the
Employment
Advisory
Council.
There
has
been
nothing
posted
on
the
website
since
June
of
2018
no
meeting
minutes
no
agenda,
no
plans.
P
What,
if
anything,
is
this
group
doing
in
regards
to
citizens
police
advisory
committee,
no
meeting
since
December
2019,
no
packet
or
minute
since
March
2019
again?
What
is
this
committee
doing
and
regardless
is
and
police
complaint
assessment
committee
no
minutes
or
packet
since
November
2018
no
meetings
since
September
2018?
How
is
how
is
this
different
from
the
citizens
police
advisory
committee?
Members
terms
are
not
given
when
our
new
members
do
to
be
appointed
in
regards
to
who
is
reviewing
the
police
operations.
Are
they
bringing
in
an
outside
consultant?
P
It
sounds
like
this
is
being
done
by
the
City
Council,
who
is
in
charge?
How
do
we
know
they
have
the
expertise
to
do
this?
This
just
goes
to
show,
although
the
city
of
Evanston
professes
that
they
do
in
fact
value
equity.
In
reality,
these
values
are
just
empty
promises
that
consistently
reveal
the
contrary,
aren't
the
most
more
document
that
exists
within
a
community.
P
In
district
65
and
each
owe
to
schools,
whereas
arrows
are
still
present
and
reaching
out
to
all
nine
aldermen,
you've
only
been
able
to
have
meetings
with
some
of
the
aldermen
and
those
that
we
have
spoken
to.
Only
alderman,
Fleming
and
Simmons
have
committed
to
probably
supporting
defunding
the
police
and
voting
on
a
budget
that
reflects
the
bat
commitment.
Today,
July
13
students
are
being
orchestrated
at
the
remaining
seven
Alderman's
houses,
as
well
as
the
mayors.
P
These
sit-ins
are
aimed
at
garnering
the
attention
of
our
alderman
and
mayor
as
it
relates
to
the
current
state
of
policing
and
Evanston.
56
million
of
the
city
of
Evanston
budget
goes
to
the
police
and
comparision
gives
Morrison
Center
and
the
fleetwood
Road
and
community
center
is
located
in
the
fifth
Ward.
Where
fit
41
point.
Five
percent
of
the
population
identifies
as
black.
According
to
2010
US
Census
data
receive
under
two
million
dollars
collectively
for
more
information

We
ask
that
you
please

these
issues
of

racism
within
the
city
of
Evanston
and
do
so
as
if
your

P
Ian's
are
increasingly
aware
apologize
that
you
are
being
disproportionately
spent
in
our
city
or
35
percent
of
Evanston's
2020
general
funds
goes
to
policing,
we'll
only
3.5
percent
goes
to
Community
Development.
We
ask
that
you,
mayor
and
aldermen
release
a
public
statement
committing
to
defund
the
police
and
stand
by
the
by
that
commitment
during
the
fall
vote
on
the
official
fiscal

budget
you'll
be
reaching
out
to
the
aldermen
that
we
have
yet
to
speak
to
in
the
coming
days.
P
If
there
are
any
questions
are
on
our
ask
of
you,
as
elected
officials
in
the
city,
that
we
call
home
I
appreciate
all
of
your
time
and
again,
as
Nick
stated,
the
Evanson
fight
for
black
lives
holds
a
lot
of
events
about
defunding
and
what
that
means.
What
there's
any
confusion
we
would
have
really
appreciate
if
you
all
attended
those
meetings,
if
you
really
do
value
voices
from
the
bottom,
so
I
really
appreciate
your
time
and
the
energy
that
you
put
into
what
you're
doing
and
thank
you
for
allowing
you
to
speak
tonight.
Q
You
long
time
no
see
so
I
want
to
say
good
evening,
mayor
Haggerty,
alderman,
acting
city
manager
and
city
clerk,
I
hope,
you're
all
doing
well
and
in
good
health
and
good
spirits.
I
know
it's
been
a
difficult
past
few
months
and
I
hope
soon,
we'll
be
able
to
have
our
usual
face
to
face
meeting
at
City
Hall.
Q
We
know
that
you
came
up
with
five
goals
for
2019
/
2020
for
City
Evanston.
All
five
important,
but
I
chose
the
number
one
goal
which
was
to
stabilize
their
finances.
We're
very
concerned
about
this
and
would
like
to
know
what
you're
doing
to
accomplish
this
goal.
I
believe
the
City
Hall
is
closed
and
you
talked
about
furlough
days
and
not
replacing
empty
positions
on
tonight's
agenda.
The
payroll
seems
about
the
same
at
2.7
million
for
two
weeks,
but
looks
like
the
bills
are
about
double
for
two
weeks
at
5.7
million.
Why
is
this?
Q
We
just
approved
15
million
from
by
line
Bank
and
a.22
wants
to
borrow
11
million.
Last
month
we
paid
three
million
in
interest
to
Zion
bank
I.
Don't
know
what
this
was
for
was
it
for
bonds
or
loans
or
not
sure
a
17
wants
to
increase
the
general
obligation
debt
by
3
million
a
18
I,
don't
understand
increasing
2019
budget
from
320
million
to
334
million.
Where
did
the
extra
14
million
come
from?
Q
A
19
wants
to
take
out
another
34
million
in
bonds
we
see,
only
18
million
is
for
projects,
and
16
million
is
to
pay
off
existing
bonds.
This
is
more
and
more
and
more
debt.
The
last
item
I'd
like
to
speak
about
for
now,
is
board
meeting.
Last
Wednesday
I'd
like
to
thank
alderman
Simmons
for
making
such
an
impassioned
speech
about
finding
a
new
study
manager
and
the
fact
that
all
residents
should
be
involved
in
that
process
and
echoed
by
several
council
members
at
different
times
in
different
meetings.
Q
Q
R
Well,
yeah.
They
seem
here
nice
to
be
present
here
with
this
group
Nick
and
Liana
wine
from
him
for
the
weekend,
I'm
getting
to
know
more
about
the
organization.
What
they're
trying
to
accomplish
and
then
reading
in
evanston
round
table
about
Leanna
she's
the
topic,
one
of
the
subjects
Leanna
of
what
I'm
talking
about,
because
how
impressed
I
was
in
terms
of
what
you're
articulating
and
still
do
so
everything
you
said
today.
I
definitely
support
both
of
you.
R
I
want
to
just
say
in
my
own
words
how
I'm,
looking
at
the
situation
with
regard
to
grassroots
effort,
so
I
said
with
regard
to
the
extending
a
declared
state
of
emergency.
I,
now
understand
that
it's
two
weeks
from
now,
instead
of
two
months,
but
the
argument
still
apply
during
this
emergency.
The
evanston
structured,
Central
Command
relies
on
input
from
the
community
leaders
outside
the
auspices
of
the
public
meetings
act.
R
Resident
participation
in
recent
governor
HR
was
strong
and
productive,
really
so
really
really
so
suggesting
a
need
to
return
to
grassroots
participation
in
an
open
meeting.
If
emergency
powers
are
to
be
continued
two
weeks,
two
months
whatever
with
limited
number
of
city
council
meetings
and
scheduling,
a
five
to
six
residents
entered
virtual
town
hall
meetings.
To
course,
our
direction
through
a
path
through
and
past
social
economic
casualties
of
this
pandemic
would
be
advised
below,
is
an
example
of
a
difficult
kind
of
difficult
conversations
that
build
community
across
wards
across
wards
to
common
goals.
R
Beyond
politics,
the
7/7
20
city
manager,
gov
HR
recruitment,
meeting
reported
in
the
Evanston
roundtable
on
seven.
Eight
is
what
I'm
referring
to?
How
are
you
freshing
in
enlightening
to
experience
balanced
and
honest
viewpoints,
moderated
by
gov
HR,
for
example,
Linda
Wallace
and
Carolyn
Laughlin?
Recognizing,
who
has
the
council's
or
mayor's
ear
needs
to
be
on
board
for
the
changes
they
in
evanston
need
more
zoom
town
halls,
including
present
and
future
of
Evanston
for
recovery,
health
and
well-being
of
the
vibrant
community,
upon
which
it
was
founded.
R
Budget
town
halls
work,
Everson
leads
the
nation
to
increase
Health
and
Human
Services
funding
and
programs
necessary
to
preserve
the
diversity.
Leanna
was
thinking
of
you
preserve
the
diversity
Evanston
residents
hold
dear
or
a
city.
Town
Hall
to
identify
social,
economic
burdens
of
culture
and
structure
that
fuel
crises
in
order
to
create
together
a
durable
Rena
bees
built
upon
restore
to
justice
and
I,
think
of
Nick
and
Leanna
on
this
one
and
the
rest
of
their
group.
So
the
articles
called
some
want.
R
L
S
You
I
will
make
this
very
brief.
I
just
wanted
to
quickly
speak
in
support
of
amending
the
Evanston,
American
legions
liquor
license
and
just
clarify
a
couple
of
things
very
quickly.
The
only
thing
that
this
does
is
change.
The
liquor
license
to
allow
us
to
serve
the
general
public
instead
of
requiring
a
membership
in
order
to
serve
the
general
public
does
not
change
where
we
can
serve
what
hours
we
can
serve.
There's
nothing
else.
S
A
You
everybody
that
spoke
at
public
comment
on
a
variety
of
issues
and
the
council
appreciates
in
value
since
we
got
yet
a
teach
bouncing
evening.
We're
now
going
to
move
to
the
agenda
this
evening,
and
the
first
thing
that
we
have
is
special
orders
of
business
ultimate
Iranian.
Would
you
mind
as
the
senior
all
during
moving
sp1.
F
L
Second
allocation
of
his
funding
is
from
the
cares
at
the
amount
of
wonderment
which,
combined
with
the
first
allocation
and
the
amount
of
five
hundred
and
forty
six
thousand
four
hundred
and
twenty
five
hours
in,
totals
nine
hundred
and
sixty
six
thousand
three
hundred
and
fourteen
dollars.
This
is
for
action
and
I
move
approval.
It's.
H
G
A
T
Why
we
are
working
right
now
is
with
our
various
homeless
providers,
to
try
to
figure
out
the
multiple
demands
that
are
going
to
be
put
on
our
yes
chief
funding
and
our
CDBG
cv
funding
will
be
bringing
a
budget
showing
some
of
those
allocations.
Not
all
of
them
are
going
to
at
the
next
council
meeting.
T
Not
all
of
them
are
necessarily
going
to
be
absolutely
finalized,
because
we
are
still
working
with
staff
to
figure
out
what
our
needs
are
going
to
be
for
the
25%
that
FEMA
doesn't
cover
and
other
things
of
that
sort,
but
we've
allocated
700.
Excuse
me
three
hundred
and
seventy
thousand
of
the
ESG
so
far
to
our
first
use,
which
is
rehousing.
T
T
I,
don't
think
we're
gonna
take
anywhere
near
that
to
expend
that,
but
we
are
expecting
to
bring
a
proposal
for
small
business
assistance
at
the
next
council
meeting
on
that
we
are
still
working
to
try
to
determine
if
we
can
get
any
ability
to
extend
the
term
of
rent
assistance
that
could
be
provided
with
CDBG
cv
for
more
than
three
months,
which
is
going
to
make
it
not
as
give
us
not
as
much
ability
to
help
people
as
we
might
want,
but
we're
working
with
HUD.
Then
our
field
rep.
T
We
still
do
not
have
the
final
regular
for
either
ESG
cv
or
cdbg
cv,
but
we
may
apply
for
a
waiver
for
cdbg
to
simply
request
that
we
be
given
the
waiver
by
HUD
to
use
to
provide
more
than
three
months
of
assistance
to
people
using
CDBG
cv.
If
we
don't
get
the
recognition
soon,
because
the
challenge
is
if
people
are
going
to
be
coming
out
of
that,
you
know
the
eviction.
T
Moratorium
will
burn
off
and
then
we
need
to
be
able
to
help
people,
and
one
of
the
challenges
is
if
they've
already
been
without
funding
to
pay
their
rent
for
than
to
say,
mid
March
3
months
won't
solve
their
problem
and
so
they're
going
to
be
people.
We
may
be
able
to
help
with
three
months
of
help,
but
they
may
not
be
the
people
who
are
most
in
need
of
help.
So
we're
really
trying
to
figure
out
how
we
can
address
that
situation
and
the
regulations
make
it
a
little
bit
challenging
right
now.
A
G
A
H
A
I
L
W
One
of
the
first
things
that
we
did
was
in
an
internal
investigation
where
we
really
went
through
a
lot
of
the
information
about
what
is
actually
happening
in
the
Civic
Center.
In
terms
of
city's
operations,
we
currently
have
six
departments
approximately
160,
full-time
employees,
thirty
of
those
are
working
in
person
at
least
part-time
or
full-time
during
this
time
period,
in
order
to
provide
the
necessary
city
services.
Some
of
our
challenges
that
we're
experiencing,
though,
is
we
consider
opening
up
the
building
to
some
necessary
public.
W
More
public
processes
is
how
to
keep
the
staff
and
the
public
in
a
clear
separation
and
really
also
just
looking
at
the
safety
of
buildings
simultaneously
because
of
our
previous
discussions,
we
have
been
looking
at
the
library
we've
been
entering
into
discussions
with
the
city
staff
or
with
the
library
staff
in
order
to
determine
exactly
what
is
feasible
at
the
public
library.
This
diagram
shows
currently
the
space
that
is
highlighted
in
blue
is
the
space
that
basically,
they
feel
that
is
easily
transformed
to
city
uses
with
minimal
impact
to
library
services.
W
W
Stacks
is
largely
vacant,
but
does
have
some
plexiglass
conference
rooms
that
they
have
built
and
those
would
probably
be
relocated
and
also
has
a
room
on
the
very
south
side
that
serves
as
a
quiet
study
area
for
the
library
currently,
as
we
really
got
more
involved
into
our
investigation.
What
we
realized
is
that
the
third
that
area
of
the
library
which
is
most
easily
converted
for
both
the
purposes
of
library
and
the
city
staff,
does
not,
by
itself
really
have
adequate
space
for
relocating
all
of
our
city
center
Civic
Center
operations.
W
There
are
a
lot
of
issues
with
relocation
and
we
had
purchased
some
of
these
before
document
storage
is
a
huge
issue.
We
have
a
lot
of
paper
in
the
Civic
Center
currently
and
as
much
as
some
of
it
could
probably
be
really
minimized
or
removed
other
things,
such
as
ranging
from
personnel
files
to
easement
agreements,
documents
about
historic
properties
that
are
used
by
the
Historic
Preservation
Committee.
These
have
not
yet
been
digitized
and
really
constitute
quite
a
lot
of
storage,
and
we
need
those
for
our
daily
operations.
W
So
we
looked
at
this
really
through
a
lens
like
what
would
we
do
for
an
unknown
time
period
of
3
to
36
months
and
part
of
the
reason
why
this
is
unknown
is
really
just
because
the
conditions
of
endemic
are
constantly
changing.
Since
we've
last
spoken,
we've
received
a
lot
more
information
and
additional
guidelines
from
the
state
about
what
they
expect
in
terms
of
our
building
operations,
though,
we've
moved
from
phase
3
to
phase
4.
We
have
generally
seen
a
lot
of
reopening
of
some
types
of
facilities.
W
Communities
around
us
are
doing
certain
things,
while
other
communities
are
not
doing
anything
to
reopen
or
doing
it
on
such
a
limited
basis.
So
it's
all
just
very
complicated
as
well,
along
with
the
realization
that
we
may
actually
be
moving
backwards
at
some
point,
just
depending
on
circumstances
which
may
be
completely
outside
of
our
control.
W
So
what
we
did
was
we
assumed
that,
for
the
time
being,
which
is
likely,
regardless
of
where
our
staff
are
located,
but
just
do
pandemic
conditions
that
we
would
still
be
dealing
with
a
lot
of
remote
work
and
staggering
staff
schedules
to
minimize
the
number
of
people
in
the
office,
and
we
didn't
worry
about
including
council
chambers
or
public
meeting
rooms.
I'll
talk
about
that
a
little
bit
later,
but
for
now
such
things
are
virtual
and
there
are
options.
W
Should
we
need
to
consider
those
as
in
person,
we
didn't
worry
about
document
storage,
because
that
is
a
large
problem
and
we
did
assume
that
we
do
have
other
facilities
that
have
limited
capacity
for
relocating
some
additional
staff.
So
there's
really
kind
of
two
options
when
we
say
relocate
all
staff
really
only
looking
at
a
very
limited
work
area
still
of
15,000
square
feet
compared
to
or
at
study
civic
center
of
over
120,000
square
feet.
W
And
then
we
also
looked
at
more
phase
relocation,
where
we
can
implement
kind
of
a
phase
one
and
then
wait
and
see
what
happens
and
what
our
city
needs
are.
And
in
this
phase
one
relocation
which
we
estimate
to
be
about
5,800
square
feet.
We
would
really
be
looking
at
just
the
public
facing
functions
only
and
we
would
have
our
remaining
staff
there,
not
in
the
public
facing
functions
to
continue
to
work.
Basically,
as
they
are
right
now,
which
is
occasionally
we
do
need
to
enter
into
the.
W
So
when
we
talk
about
these
different
relocations
and
no
reak
locations,
I
just
want
to
really
make
sure
that
everybody's
kind
of
thinking
the
same
thing
to
do
a
complete
relocation
really
requires
a
lot
of
staff
resources.
I
mean
everything
from
how
are
we
gonna
access
documents?
There's
a
lot
of
engineering
IT
needs
tied
up
into
it.
Our
facilities
staff
ends
up
doing
a
lot
of
work
in-house.
Every
time
we
try
to
make
changes
to
our
workspaces,
a
phased
relocation.
W
There
is
still
a
moderate
amount
of
work,
but
it
is
much
reduced
and
we're
more
able
to
just
focus
on
what
we
need
to
get
up
and
running
for
a
very
small
number
of
people,
and
if
we
do
no
relocation,
we
actually
still
have
a
problem
with
a
Civic
Center,
which
is
that
we
have
a
hard
time
controlling
where
public
is
and
we
are
going
to
have
a
need
to
provide
some
services
in
person
as
we
continue
in
phase
four.
This
includes
things
like
general
assistance
interviews
and
the
collector's
office.
W
We
are
about
to
enter
wheel
tax
season,
which
is
a
a
whole
production
in
itself.
So
we
would
need
to
make
modifications
to
the
building
in
order
to
contain
people
because
of
past
security
issues,
we've
actually
already
looked
at
a
number
of
ways
that
we
could
quickly
modify
the
building
and
everything
we've
looked
at,
such
as
removing
public
access.
Just
from
the
third
floor,
which
is
Community
Development
and
Engineering
Public
Works.
W
It
requires
a
lot,
it's
typically
about
a
hundred
to
$125,000
per
floor,
involving
putting
a
new
storefront
glass
door
systems
being
able
to
provide
some
sort
of
security.
We're
really
complicated
by
the
fact
that
the
existing
Civic
Center
building
has
is
complying
with
building
codes
only
by
some
things
that
make
it
impossible
to
isolate
certain
floors,
such
as
we
have
really
limited
restroom
capacity.
So
we
comply
with
the
restroom
building
codes
by
making
it
possible
for
people
to
use
the
restrooms
on
the
floor
above
them
in
the
floor
below
them.
W
But
if
you
start
rocking
off
sections
of
the
floors,
then
those
restrooms
are
no
longer
available
to
the
public
and
the
calculations
get
really
complex
so
and
in
terms
so
as
I
move
through
this
table.
When
I
look
at
the
different
phases,
we're
always
assuming
that
indefinitely,
we
will
be
doing
remote
work
in
staggered
schedules
unrelated
to
anything,
but
the
pandemic.
We
will
be
in
order
to
separate
the
public
and
staff.
W
However,
there
is
an
advantage
to
relocating
our
customer
service
functions
or
even
all
of
our
city
staff,
which
is
that
we
can
provide
a
one-stop
customer
service
desk,
and
this
is
something
that
we
have
looked
at.
Long-Term
is
a
huge
customer
service
improvement,
but
it's
really
challenging
because
of
the
way
the
first
floor
of
the
Civic
Center
is
laid
out.
W
We're
carved
up
into
spaces,
and
it
would
really
require
a
holistic
remodel
of
a
section
of
the
first
floor.
In
order
to
get
to
that
one-stop
shop
for
all
customer
service
cleaning
efforts,
the
smaller
the
space
you're
utilizing
the
easier
it
is
to
go
through
the
incredible
sanitation
procedures
that
are
in
the
state
guidelines
working
in
a
pandemic.
W
The
public
facing
operations
that
we're
talking
about
for
relocation
include
the
permit
desk
administrative
adjudication,
which
is
temporarily
relocated
to
gives
Morrison
property
tax
assessment
review.
Also
called
Board
of
Review
is
temporarily.
We
would
relocate
that
to
a
rec
center
because
we
need
to
start
it
quite
soon,
but
in
the
long
term
we
could
move
back
to
the
library
to
make
it
a
one-stop
area
collectors
office
and
the
permit
desk,
actually
I
should
say
you're
doing
a
temporary
relocation.
W
To
crown
this
is
being
deliberate,
being
determined
by
the
need
to
do
this
very
quickly
with
wheel
tax
season,
starting
and
with
the
current
permit
desk
online
operation
being
pretty
overwhelmed.
We
really
need
to
have
in-person
options
for
these
things
quickly.
The
installation
and
moving
these
to
crown
is
involved
in
just
very
minimal
counter
improvements
that
can
be
quickly
reversed
and
set
up
or
taken
down
needed
so
that
we
can
avoid
co-opting
the
brown
space
forever
and
then
general
assistance.
W
The
Ombudsman
and
Parks
and
Rec
functions
again
that
customer
service
desk
in
terms
of
the
City,
Council
and
public
meeting
areas.
I
know
this
is
being
considered
at
the
rules
committee.
There
is
an
opportunity
that
they
may
have
to
stay
virtual
for
the
next
several
months
or
we
may
be
able
to
start
offering
them
in
person.
If
we
wish
to
go
to
in-person,
we
actually
have
a
number
of
options
that
long-term
could
work.
W
For
one
thing
we
could
just
utilize
the
Civic
Center
in
the
evenings
only
when
the
staff
isn't
there
and
we
could
restrict
people
very
specifically
to
certain
areas
of
the
building
it's
a
little
complicated,
but
it
certainly
could
be
done
at
least
on
a
temporary
basis.
We
could
also
utilize
a
gym
or
a
large
room
in
one
of
our
recreation
centers,
such
as
the
levy
Center.
W
We
didn't
explore
this
yet
just
because,
for
the
moment,
we're
virtual-
and
you
think
we
have
a
lot
of
flexibility
to
get
one
of
these
options
that
are
pretty
quickly
as
the
need
arises,
and
so
generally,
after
really
doing
an
investigation,
we
would
just
recommend
for
the
moment
getting
the
public
facing
operations,
putting
them
in
the
library
based
on
our
conversations
with
the
library
staff
in
the
library
board.
They
are
open
to
this,
although
we
need
to
finalize
the
detail,
this
really
does
provide
the
lowest
cost
operation
that
provides
for
that
separation
staff
in
public.
W
It
allows
us
to
do
the
one-stop
customer
service
desk,
which
has
been
a
long-term
issue
that
we've
been
looking
at,
and
it
requires
the
minimal
amount
of
staff
resources
for
implementation
and
then
for
the
long
term,
cleaning
and
other
things
that
you
need
to
do.
It
will
also
give
us
the
flexibility.
I
do
want
to
say
that
it
is
important
for
us
to
provide
this
separation.
W
We've
had
people
show
up
in
engineering
who
are
angry,
that
they
received
a
parking
ticket
and
show
up
in
somebody's
office
yelling
at
them
about
the
signage
that
was
designed
to.
So
it's
really
one
thing
and
not
great
when
that's
occurring
when
there's
not
a
pandemic,
but
in
a
pandemic
world.
Once
we
get
people
on
the
first
floor
to
the
current
collector's
office
and
Parks
and
Recreation
space,
we
feel
like
it's
going
to
be
very
difficult
to
keep
them
on
the
first
floor
and
then
you'll
be
you
will
have
people
say.
W
Oh
this
office
is
closed
or
I
didn't
get.
The
answer.
I
wanted
I
know
I
used
to
just
pop
up
to
such-and-such
a
floor
and
talk
to
experts,
and
you
feel
like
that's
a
thing
that
is
going
to
continue
once
the
public
is
back
in
the
building,
so
to
keep
the
public
safe,
ER
and
in
a
more
sanitary
environment
to
provide
just
really
minimal
staff
at
the
Civic
Center
and
use
it
as
a
resource,
but
only
as
necessary
and
keep
the
staff
largely
out
of
the
Civic
Center
as
well.
A
A
W
Really
interesting
in
some
ways
on
the
surface,
the
the
building,
the
existing
Civic
Center
building
is
actually
better
than
other
buildings,
in
that
it
is
really
oversized
our
needs.
People
are
siloed
and
they're
really
spread
out,
and
it's
as
we
learn
more
about
what
how
it
appears
the
virus
is
spreading.
What
kinds
of
situations
are
not
great
to
have
versus
what
kind
of
situations
are
a
little
bit
better?
That's
really
an
advantage.
However.
W
We
know
that
we've
had
a
long
term
problems
with
our
HVAC
and
we
need
to
make
some
substantial
improvements
again,
seeing
the
evolving
research
it
turns
out
the
most
buildings
old
buildings.
New
buildings
are
not
there.
Hvac
is
not
geared
towards
dealing
with
a
virus
of
the
covin
nature.
It
is
really
challenging.
You
need
lots
of
air
changes,
which
is
not
typically
how
buildings
are
designed
today,
and
they
were
definitely
not
designed
that
way.
A
hundred
years
ago,
we
actually
had
a
consultant.
W
There
are
things
that
you
can
do
in
order
to
improve
your
HVAC
systems,
which
now
buildings
are
looking
at
doing
in
the
light
of
the
new.
In
light
of
the
new
situation,
however,
those
things
are
not
possible
easily
at
our
current
Civic
Center,
because
we
don't
really
have
centralized
forced
air
ventilation.
We
can't
put
on
things
like
a
UV
disinfection
system
or
increase
the
number
of
air
changes
or
put
in
filters
into
the
system
or
various
other
things
that
you
could
do
to
improve
the
HVAC.
W
G
Thank
you,
so
first
I'll
just
say:
I'm
looking
at
another
screen
because
I'm
trying
to
look
at
the
presentation,
it
is
for
me
personally
very
hard
to
try
to
read
the
screen.
You
know
taking
information
and
for
a
million
questions,
so
this
might
be
on
there
somewhere,
but
because
I
didn't
have
a
chance
to
digest
it
before
the
meeting
it
might
be
redundant.
So
Lori.
G
You
mentioned
this
little
this
space
at
the
rubber
crown
and
moving
some
people
there,
but
I'm
more
interested
in
this
kind
of
forward
facing
not
storefront.
But
you
know
kind
of
customer
service
area.
So
are
you
suggesting
that
that
is
taking
place
at
the
library?
Are
you
suggesting
that
takes
place
somewhere
else
so.
W
At
Crown
we've
created
using
two
multi
purposes
that
are
just
off
the
front
door
by
the
lobby.
We
are
creating
a
very
cursory
customer
service
counter
that
will
allow
people
who
have
questions
about
their
real
tax
payments
to
show
up,
and
similarly,
who
are
a
few
issues
getting
their
permits
done
online
can
show
up
we're
working
on
managing
that
cube,
whether
it's
through
through
appointments
or
some
other
software
solution,
we're
trying
to
figure
out
a
solution,
but
it
is
not
a
permanent
solution.
W
The
way
it
is
done,
we
are
basically
modifying
furniture
to
create
a
temporary
situation,
and
I
will
say
that
mr.
Hemmingway
would
really
love
it.
If
we
vacate
his
his
community
center
as
quickly
as
possible,
those
multi-purpose
rooms
had
valuable
uses,
the
community
other
than
serving
as
a
collector's
office,
putting
it
at
the
library.
We
would
actually
build
out
a
customer
service
desk.
That's
a
more
permanent
thing
that
people
could
come
and
through
one
desk
area,
they
could
have
all
of
their
needs
met
from
all
of
the
desk
areas
that
are
currently
located.
W
On
the
first
floor
of
the
Civic
Center,
that's
a
philosophy:
we've
we've
looked
at
for
a
long
time.
How
would
you
get
it
done,
but
it
always
required
us
to
spend
several
hundred
thousand
dollars
in
making
modifications
to
the
first
floor
and
during
the
same
time
period
we
were
looking
at
the
HVAC
and
electrical
and
saying,
let's
hold
off
on
making
these
decisions
until
we
actually
decide
what
we
want
to
do
on
the
bigger
projects.
Okay,.
G
So
my
concern
there
is
kind
of
twofold
I.
You
know,
I
I
understand
moving
people
to
the
library
we
have
that
space,
so
we
don't
have
necessarily
the
rental
fees
and
such.
However,
if
I'm
thinking
of
people
you
talk
about
people
showing
up,
but
your
offer
is
angry.
If
I
think
about
people
who
are
coming
to
pay
whatever
tickets,
whatever
they're
coming
to
pay.
Now
they
have
to
find
a
parking
space
pay
the
meter
downtown.
You
know,
you're,
not
a
big
thing,
but
you're,
adding
on
some
more
frustration.
G
I
would
much
rather
see
and
I
realized
that
you
know
people
feel
like
the
robber
crown
obviously
was
built
to
serve
another
purpose,
but
we're
in
a
different
pretty
different
era.
Now
so
in
my
mind,
it
would
make
much
more
sense
to
try
to
get
as
much
Parks
and
Rec
stuff
at
robber
crown.
They
have
a
huge
base
now
at
the
Civic
Center
and
a
lot
of
that
office.
Spaces
they're
not
used
or
not
used
for
I
staff
every
day,
because
you're
out
in
the
field
I
wouldn't
much
rather
see
us.
G
We
don't
know
how
long
we
might
take
for
levy
in
the
library,
but
we
do
know.
We've
already
paid
a
substantial
amount
of
money
for
robber
crown
we're
trying
to
get
people
in
there.
They
can
do
a
variety
of
things
when
they're
there,
and
also
not
pay
for
parking
which
will
become
I.
Think
of
a
huge
thing
if
we
start
sending
more
people
or
worse
the
library.
So
that
is.
That
is
my
concern
for
that
things,
like
you
know,
paying
the
will
attacks
and
all
that
I
think
we
have
mentioned
before.
G
Maybe
can
already
be
done
at
the
robber
crown
desk,
where
they
were
doing
more
things
than
usual
at
the
robber
crown
desk.
So
that's
another
plus
for
trying
to
have
as
many
things
there
and
then
just
this
slide,
where
you
mentioned
city
council
kind
of
utilizing
different
spaces
for
our
meetings.
I
think
we
have
to
remember
that
the
school
boards
also
meet
in
the
same
time.
So
I
think
you
know
the
idea
that
we'd
use
a
school
board
room
for
our
meeting
is
not.
G
We
can't
I
do
that
because
they
meet
on
Mondays
and
they're,
probably
going
through
the
same
reconfiguration
with
their
space,
maybe
trying
to
not
have
so
many
people
in
there
either.
So
if
we
wanted
to
look
at
using
one
of
our
own
buildings,
I'm
happy
for
that
or
you
know,
however,
we
think
to
do
that
at
the
Rules
Committee.
But
we
can't
use
a
school
board
room
because
they're
meeting
at
the
same
time
and
if
they're
not
in
their
space,
it's
probably
cuz.
They
don't
want
people
in
their
space.
A
F
I
We
did
do
any
kind
of
city
operations
at
the
library
we
would
some
kind
of
validation
program
so
either
making
the
lower
level
of
the
library
parking.
You
know
free
for
the
for
an
hour
or
whatever,
or
doing
something
with
some
validations
at
Churchgate
garage
or
you
know
the
surface
lot
right
next
door.
So,
yes,
it's
not.
You
know
as
convenient
on
the
parking
side
of
things
as
the
current
Civic
Center
is,
but
it
is
more
convenient
to
public
transportation.
I
A
Well,
interim
city
manager,
story,
I'll,
ask
a
question
in
that
final
there's,
some
people
tonight,
you're
in
public
comment,
were
disappointed
that
there
wasn't.
You
know,
materials
in
the
packet
about
this
and
obviously
we
went
through
it,
and
so
people
could
see
this
at
home,
but
it
is
the
first
time
that
they
were
seeing
it.
What
is
the
protocol
when
it
comes
to
you
know
the
Office
of
City
locations?
A
A
I
Just
gonna
answer
that
question
and
then
broader
context
of
yeah.
There
was
a
referral
earlier
this
spring
late
spring
summer
to
investigate
whether
or
not
it
would
make
sense
to
potentially
relocate
city
operations
to
the
library.
If
we
were
to
contemplate
I'm
moving
out
of
the
Civic
Center,
it
has
been
discussed
several
times
that
you
know.
We
certainly
don't
have
financing
available
right
now
and
funds
available
right
now
to
do
a
large-scale
implementation
of
needed
HVAC
and
electrical
improvements
that
we've
been
talking
about.
I
I
These
are
words
that
are
talked
about
a
lot,
but
really
what
we
are
we
are
dealing
with
is
a
new
normal
and
then
that
uncertainty
we
are
anticipating
is
longer
than
just
a
few
months.
You
know
it
may
be
a
long
time
before
things
are
back
to
normal,
if
they're
ever
back
to
normal
and
if
they
are
a
new
normal.
We
need
to
make
adjustments
based
on
the
governor's
guidelines
for
office
workers.
I
And
so
it
makes
sense
for
us
to
think
about
the
pathways
that
exist
ahead
of
us
and
the
options
that
we
have
based
on
the
situation
that
we're
in
in
a
situation,
we
want
to
get
you,
which
is,
you
know,
a
future
home
for
the
Civic
Center
operations
that
make
sense,
whether
it's
the
existing
facility
or
other
facilities.
Okay,.
L
I'm
concerned,
for
reasons
Erika
just
mentioned,
for
us
to
start
talking
about
a
permanent
relocation
to
the
Civic,
Center
I
think
we're
making
a
mistake.
I
think
the
way
we
should
do
that
I
think
this
is
just
as
important
as
selecting
a
city
manager.
I
think
that
we
should
go
to
the
public
I,
don't
think
the
public
is
going
to
want
to
move
it's
this
slow,
this
Civic
Center,
we're
talking
about
fragmented
locations,
I,
think
it's
a
mistake,
I
think.
L
Laura
mentioned
several
reasons
why
the
Civic
Center
is
is
a
positive
thing
during
the
Cova
that
pandemic
it's
large
and
we're
that's
what
we
need
I
think
I
just
think
we're
making
such
a
where
we
got.
Where
are
we
going
to
put
early
vote?
It
just
think
about
it?
Have
you
ever
seen?
I,
don't
know
if
all
of
you
ever
go
and
stand
in
line
to
get
your
city
sticker
or
your
real
test
don't
go
to
get
a
permit.
I
mean
what
somebody's
going
to
go
to
kids.
L
Morrison,
for
one
thing,
the
other
one's
going
to
go
to
the
library,
the
other
one's
going
to
go
to
the
Leavey
Center,
then
somebody's
going
to
go
to
to
Robert
Brown.
Yes,
it
doesn't
make
any
sense.
People
people
hate
the
idea
of
having
a
problem
with
parking
at
the
Civic
Center
you
just
pull
up,
then
you
go
just
go
there
and
people.
L
Don't
people
didn't
have
trouble
finding
places
in
the
Civic
Center
until
we
got
new
elevators,
where
you
took
all
the
directions
out
of
the
elevators,
we
put
up
a
sign
that
nobody
can
read:
it's
a
bat,
it's
a
beautiful
sign,
but
nobody
can
read
it
and
I
really
I
would
encourage
us.
The
pharma
subcommittee
of
all
the
men-
and
let
us
talk
about
it
lately,
we're
being
told
what
our
staff
is
decided
for.
I
think
we
want
to
have
more
input.
L
X
X
Their
HVAC
Stinson's
how
they
work,
and
so
I
think
this
would
have
to
be
very,
very
aware
of
that.
That's
going
to
continue
it
on
into
the
future
in
terms
of
not
just
this
color
virus,
but
the
next
coronavirus,
and
so
the
cost
of
doing
that
in
an
old
building
is
enormous.
I
like
getting
in
single
customer
service
desks
I
was.
X
X
X
You
know
when
one
said:
don't
like
crisis,
go
to
waste
I
think
in
the
sense
that
corner
fire
is
teaching
so
many,
so
many
organizations
what
can
be
done
remotely
and
what
can't
be
done
remotely
I
know
a
lot
of
organizations
and
companies
are
rethinking
their
officing
from
everything
from
Republican
from
US
governments
to
private
companies
so
and
I
think
that
mr.
Lee
is
right
that
we
have
to
start
thinking.
This
is
very
long
term.
X
I
know
several
people
whose
companies
have
told
them
we're
not
going
back
to
work,
not
coming
back
to
offices
until
January,
2021
and
and
I
think
when
we
see
what's
happening
in
California
right
now,
they
clamp
back
down
again.
We
have
to
think
very
long
term,
so
I
I
support
this
gradual
stepping
away
from
the
Civic
Center
I
think
the
cost
of
changing
retrofitting
neck
building
is
is
so
much
more
expensive
than
we
even
realize
that
and
it
it
still
is
an
inefficient
building.
X
So
in
our
future
we
are
gonna
have
to
have
cleaner
air,
cleaner
surfaces,
cleaner
buildings,
and
we
need
to
have
a
space.
That's
designed
to
accommodate
that
in
the
most
efficient
way.
So
I
am
in
favor
of
continuing
this
discussion
about
creating
a
one-stop
shopping
library
and
then
gradually
looking
forward
to
the
future
about
how
we,
how
we
move
into
a
cool
space,
someplace.
M
Thank
you
mr.
Marin
and
Thank
You
alderman
pointer
for
those
comments.
I
agree
with
you,
I
think
the
gradual
move
from
a
a
customer
service
desk
into
the
library
makes
a
lot
of
sense
for
lots
of
different
reasons.
There's
an
incredible
amount
of
parking
there.
It
just
couldn't
be
more
convenient
for
folks
who
want
to
come
and
use
the
library
and
also
get
some
city
work
done.
It
adds
to
the
vitality
of
our
streets,
which
downtown,
which
are
certainly
going
to
be
challenged
for
the
next
couple
of
years
and
and
I.
M
Think
too,
that
it
also
offers
the
opportunity
for
us
to
do
something
when
we're
ready
to
make
a
decision
on
the
Civic
Center
property
to
do
something
exciting
over
there
with
a
combination
of
affordable
housing
and
some
market
rate
units.
I
I
think
that
would
be
a
spectacular
sight
to
retain
the
historic
quality
not
only
off
the
site,
but
also
do
a
nice
infill
development.
M
M
It
wasn't
purchased
for
us
for
that
to
be
a
permanent,
Civic
Center,
but
we're
sort
of
a
stopgap
move
basically
to
acquire
the
parkland
and
I
I.
Think
the
time
has
come
for
us
to
be.
You
know,
willing
to
make
a
decision
and
I'm
more
than
happy
to
do
that.
That
I
am
I,
am
also
wanting
to
have
the
conversation
about
what
happens
to
the
Civic
Center
site,
so
I
would
support
alderman,
Rainey
and
the
committee.
M
M
The
only
other
question
that
I've
got
is
the
other
department
that
seems
to
be
really
active
is
in
the
building,
permit,
Department
and
I'm,
not
sure
where
that
goes
so
I
missed
orally.
If
you
can
or
Lara.
If
you
can
tell
us
where
the
building
permits
would
go,
but
other
than
that
those
are
the
people
that
I
see
moving
around
in
the
Civic
Center,
so
that
that
department
on
the
second
floor,
but
everything
else
on
the
first
floor.
Fifthly,.
W
Department
we
would
move
a
permit
desk
to
the
library
as
well,
so
that
there
is,
there
will
be
a
an
appointment-only
permit
desk
located
temporarily
a
crown.
But
again
the
crown
thing
we
are
deliberately
doing
very
temporary
and
so
that
it
is
easily
to
pull
up
stakes
and
move
it.
If
we,
if
we
need
to
to
the
library
or
another
location.
A
I
H
You
so,
for
the
reasons
that
autumn
at
this
said,
I
really
would
like
to
on
the
war
about
downtown
location
for
a
Civic
Center,
but
to
augment
Rainey's
point
on
process.
Is
a
committee
further
discussion?
More
importantly,
a
most
importantly
community
discussion,
so
that
facility
is
in
a
neighborhood
and
it's
always
a
courtesy
that
the
neighborhood
in
proximity
to
facility
that
were
discussing
has
community
meetings
and
there's
some
sort
of
engagement
process.
H
In
addition,
there
are
some
environmental
assets
that
are
concerned
now,
I've
heard
from
a
few
on
the
if
it's
Ingram,
Park
or
there's
some
natural
habitats
or
sanctuary
or
something
happening
in
the
park
there,
as
well
as
possibly
some
heritage
trees
on
Ridge,
so
some
sort
of
community
process,
even
if
it's
education,
so
those
those
environmental
assets,
might
be
protected
in
the
process
of
some
transaction.
But
we
need
to
educate
the
community
and
it
seems
that
this
conversation
is
advancing
pretty
pretty
swiftly
without
much
council
input
or
community
engagement.
H
Would
say
both
need
to
be
discussed
right,
mm-hmm
so
and
I,
don't
know
if
it's
one
committee
or
not,
but
there
are
two
very
important
discussions
that
the
community
needs
to
weigh
it
on.
So
we
need
education
on
why
the
building
is
so
inefficient
and
one
of
the
safety
and
security
concerns
and
what
would
be
the
benefits
of
I'm
relocating
to
a
downtown
area
or
using
our
arts
correct
facilities
more
and,
as
importantly,
what
would
be
the
proposed
next
use
for
the
Civic
Center?
What
does
it
mean
to
the
parkland?
H
What
do
the
neighbors
and
proximity
to
that
facility?
What
what
they'd
like
to
see
in
what
would
they
invite
so
like
we
do
anything
else,
I
mean
if
we're
planning
a
park
and
Pepa
a
bit
community
engagement
on
what
sort
of
perfect
lip
meant.
Furthermore,
I
mean
even
that
much
more.
We
should
do
something
more
extensive
for
a
Civic
Center.
M
And
and
I
agree
with
that,
I
think
that
the
Ingram
Park
wouldn't
be
touched
that
that's
a
we
wouldn't
isn't
that
correct,
Laura,
England
power,
Ingram
Park,
would
would
remain
and
my
sense
is
get
again
given
the
historic
nature
of
the
Ridge
Avenue
streetscape.
M
You
would
retain
that
entire
streetscape
and
do
an
infill
development
I'm,
not
an
architect
so
but
I
do
think
that
there's
an
opportunity
here
for
us
to
do
something,
wonderful
and
retain
the
building
that
we
I
mean
we
just
put
a
million-dollar
roof
on
it,
and
you
know
how
there
are
other
things
like
that.
I
I
also
agree.
I,
think
this
is
a
to
committee.
Job
I
think
it's
a
I
think
and
all
of
them
rainy
and
autumn
and
win.
Can
you
remind
me
I'm
thinking
that
20.
M
X
The
study
there
were
several
studies
that
were
done.
There
was
program
study
in
terms
of
what
was
done
in
the
Civic
Center,
and
that's
that
the
result
of
that
was
that
if
the
Civic
Center
was
the
conclusion
was
it
was
efficient.
There
was
a
study
about
what
could
be
done
with
it
instead
or
what
could
be
done
with
the
parcel
Ingram
Park
was
dedicated
as
permanent
permanently
parkland
at
that
time
wasn't
quite
there,
but
now
that
was
discussed
that
back
then
it
was.
F
M
So
I
think
the
two
committee
approaches
one
is
what,
if
anything,
we
want
to
do
with
the
Civic
Center
and
then
the
other
one
is.
If
we
decide
the
Civic
Center
no
longer
works
well
for
us,
then,
where
should
these
worship
these
services
then
be
located?
So
that's
instead
of
a
council
committee,
is
that
P
and
D
going
to
do.
Is
that
that's
going
to
have
that
kind
of
those
conversations,
a
special
committee
from
the
mirror?
Let.
A
Me,
let
me
ask
the
interim
city
manager
when
you
respond.
Can
you
also
talk
about
the
timeline
of
all
of
this,
because
you
know
we
have
city
employees
right
now,
I'm
working
in
motely,
we
have
people
that
you
know,
need
access
to
certain
city
services
and
all
that.
How
does
that
often
times
certainly.
I
Too
and
I
wanted
to
touch
on
the
concept
that
you
know,
there's
there's
the
things
have
already
been
decided.
This
is
a
conversation.
This
is
a
conversation.
That's
been
going
on
for
a
while.
There
was
the
referral
failed
and
Braithwaite
to
investigate
whether
or
not
it
made
sense
for
anybody
to
be
at
the
library.
We
did
investigate
that,
and
these
are
the
findings,
so
we're
not
know,
decisions
have
been
made.
I
This
is
simply
a
recommendation
that
we
relocate
30
people
to
a
library
to
provide
services
to
the
public
that
we
can't
provide
in
this
building
at
this
moment
in
time.
If
we
want
to
provide
services
to
the
public
in
a
shorter
and
a
short
timeframe,
we
have
some
very
limited
options
and
we're
not
going
to
be
able
to
do
a
full-scale
renovation
of
a
Civic
Center
to
get
it
back
up
and
running
in
short
order
to
open
to
the
public
to
provide
these
services.
So
you
know
we
have
some.
I
We
don't
have
a
lot
of
options,
but
we
have
some
and
we
can
either
continue
to
provide
these
services
remotely,
although
for
building
permits,
and
things
like
that,
there
would
be
an
advantage
to
being
able
to
have
some
face-to-face
interaction
through
a
counter
similar.
Similarly
with
the
collector's
office,
while
we
have
provided
a
wheel
tech
service
at
the
levy
Center
for
years,
that
will
continue
to
be
a
service
that
we
provide
at
the
DB
Center.
It
would
also
be
helpful
if
we
had
an
additional
location
from
which
we
could
provide
real
text.
I
Letting
the
public
in
this
is
a
big
center
building
to
do
anything,
and
there
was
discussion
earlier
about
early
voting
in
the
Civic
Center
I
can't
in
good
conscience,
put
early
voting
in
a
Civic
Center
at
this
point
in
time
when
I
know
what
I
know
about
the
HVAC
system
and
the
setup
that
we
have
it's
just
impossible
and
it's
not
safe.
So
that's
not
saying
that
it
couldn't
be
made
safe.
I
But
if
the
City
Council
wants
us
to
investigate
how
to
make
the
Civic
Center
safe
in
the
short
term
to
open
it
back
up
for
public
services
and
we're
gonna
have
to
investigate
those
costs
and
they
will
be
high.
So
that's
a
concern
that
that
we
all
share
and
I
think
I
forgot.
Your
original
question
on.
I
So
back
to
committees,
if
you
wanted
to
address
the
issue
of
you
know
what
would
a
future?
Should
we
move
out
of
the
Civic
Center
completely?
We
could
form
a
committee
for
that
that
could
be
a
committee
comprised
of
aldermen
that
could
be
a
committee
comprised
of
residents
and
aldermen.
It
would
be
up
to
the
the
discretion
of
the
council
to
create
the
membership
of
that
committee.
Similarly
with
if
we
were
to
repurpose
this
existing
site.
I
F
I
Previously,
I'm
pretty
sure
I
can
find
the
documents
and
materials
that
work
I
created
by
that
committee.
I
think
they're
still
on
the
website
somewhere.
I'm,
certainly
there's
already
a
starting
gate
for
that
information
and
a
starting
point.
But
absolutely
the
community
will
be
involved
every
step
of
the
way-
and
this
is
you
know
the
community's
building
and
if
it's
a
romantic
community's
building
or
some
other
version
of
a
community
building.
That's
a
decision
for
the
community
to
weigh
in
uncertainly.
U
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
and
my
colleagues
in
comments
and
Erica.
Thank
you
for
your
comments
as
well.
I
think
for
me,
this
has
always
been
about
the
recovery
period
and
making
sure
that
we're
able
to
deliver
our
most
vital
services
to
our
residents
and
I
think
the
conversation
of
selling
and
what
to
do
with
the
land
is
a
little
bit
premature.
We're
not
there
yet
and
so.
I
hope
that
we
can
move
forward
with
our
staffs
well
move
forward
with
the
little
girl
and
I
think
staff
for
gathering
too
information
so
quickly.
I.
U
Are
now
in
both
construction
season,
even
with
COBIT
and
I,
receive
complaints
about
contractors
and
residents
being
able
to
meet
with
our
staff
to
get
their
projects
done
and
I?
It's
it's
all
antidotal
at
this
point,
but
if
someone's
waiting
for
a
project
to
get
signed
off
on,
that's
to
me
says
lost
revenue,
I
think
we
all
can
agree
that
there
are
certain
offices,
whether
it's
the
collectors,
whether
it's
the
perimeter
office.
U
This
way
too
small
to
accommodate
people
right
now
and
I,
don't
see
how
that's
going
to
change
in
the
future,
so
I
think
in
terms
of
just
our
operations.
I
would
hope
that
we'd
have
enough
support
to
move
forward
with
this,
and
then
we
decided
a
later
date
to
sell
I'm
sure
it
will
be
a
very
involved
process,
similar
to
the
situation
that
we
went
through
with
the
library
parking
lot.
U
A
I
guess
this
is
for
LA
Erika.
We,
if,
if
the
council
were
to
say
okay,
go
ahead
and
move
forward
with
this
gradual,
almost
reassignment
of
these
city
functions
to
these
other
locations.
That
does
not
mean
that
at
a
certain
point,
these
can't
all
be
pulled
back
to
City
Hall.
That's
the
will
of
the
council
right
yeah.
W
That
is
absolutely
the
case.
This
is
intended
actually
to
be
as
somewhat
temporary
move.
Ultimately,
the
library
is
excited
about.
Maybe
looking
at
some
raised,
that
some
services
could
continue
to
have
an
outpost
at
the
library
in
the
long
term,
but
at
the
moment
I
think
that
they
feel
like
it's
a
temporary
thing.
They
want
their
space
back.
Eventually,
they
had
planned
a
large
renovation
library
to
better
meet,
and
this
space
was
pretty
integral
to
that
in
the
long
term.
If
we
were
to
do
this,
we
hire
we'd.
W
Since
we
are
opening
up
the
collector's
office
at
crown
for
real
tax
season.
That
is
essentially
a
two-month
period
of
August
and
September.
You
would
utilize
that
time
to
do
the
improvements
at
the
library
and
then
we
would
locate
a
temporary
space
at
the
library.
I
mean
in-person.
Interaction
is
always
going
to
be
subject
to
what
phase
we
are
in
and
the
restore
Illinois
plan.
However,
that
would
allow
us
to
provide
really
good
separation
between
staff
and
the
public.
It
would
allow
a
space
with
the
public
to
be
with
staff.
W
W
So
alderman
is
one
of
my
roles
in
the
city:
I
actually
have
been
working
a
lot
on
recovery
options
for
city
operations
and
I
have
to
say
that
we
are
a
little
bit
reactionary
and
when
somebody
brings
up
a
problem
is
when
we
start
discussing
it,
and
so
this
is
I
mean.
This
is
the
thing
we
have
a
month
or
two
to
figure
that
out
and
we
will
start
working
on
that.
A
G
I
guess
to
have
a
couple
thoughts,
so
the
part
of
my
brain
weighs
spoke
about
I.
Guess
when
I'm
looking
at
this
I'm,
not
you
know.
Obviously
this
leads
to
a
long
term
congressman
or
the
conversation
about
long
term
usage
of
the
Civic
Center.
But
I
am
looking
at
this
for
a
very
temporary
covert
recovery
time.
G
So
I
definitely
agree
that
any
kind
of
a
long-term
planning
needs
to
be
a
whole
different
process
and
everything
else
and
I
know
a
lot
of
people
in
the
public
are
thinking
that
we're
using
this
as
kind
of
the
leaping
pad
to
sell
the
Civic
Center,
but
I
think
that
should
be
a
whole
different
thing.
But
my
question
then,
is
are
looking
at
this
chart.
You
have
Laura,
so
it
looks
like
you
have
almost
everything
on
your
little
chart
for
relocation
going
to
I'm
the
library,
except
for
administrative
adjudication
and
my
question.
G
There
is
through
alternatives
to
arrest.
There
are
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
changes,
but
enough
changes
there.
Particularly
we
have
youth
go
into
administrative
adjudication,
that
they'd
have
a
private
space
and
I.
Don't
remember
all
the
details.
I
remember
a
fillet,
but
essentially
it
can
be
more
of
a
confidential
thing
and
so
as
I'm
thinking
through
Gibbs,
Morrison
and
kind
of
a
sliding
accordion
door.
I
think
we
should
kind
of
just
rethink
that
particular
as
we're
looking
at
our
youth
and
having
even
a
jump
of
having
some
more
privacy
I.
G
Don't
know
if
there's
maybe
a
different
space
that
we
would
think
about
for
that.
Because
of
the
nature
of
those
meetings
that
would
you
know
someone's
coming
in
to
patronize
one
like
I
was
you
know
they
don't
even
need
to
be
seeing
or
hearing
those
going
to
administrative
adjudication.
Necessarily
that
usually
also,
then
has
a
lot
of
people
waiting
in
the
counter
chamber
anteroom
to
go
into
that
court
kind
of
space
and
then
for
the
city
manager.
So
you
mentioned
I
think
the
wheel
tax
that
happened
that
levy
center.
G
So
my
question
is:
is
it
possible
to,
in
addition
to
this
library,
space
I
still
think
that
crown
is
a
better
use,
but
in
addition
to
this
library,
space
equipping
all
of
our
community
center
so
fleet?
Would
you
know
levy
crown
to
be
able
to
do
those
functions
as
well,
so
if
you're
over
at
levy
center
doing
whatever
else
you
might
be
doing,
you
can
do
boat
acts
and
then
maybe
you
know,
pay
a
parking
ticket
or
anything
else
like.
How
does
our
software
work?
G
But
we
do
have
some
people
who
are
just
not
tech
savvy
and
who
have
questions
and
need
to
go
over
documents
with
our
staff
around
permits
and
I
do
think.
It
would
be
good
to
make
sure
that
that
permit
desk
is,
you
know,
as
Laura
said
accessible
wherever
we
go
temporarily
because
it
seems
like
they
are
overflowing
with
requests,
but
that
that
back
and
forth
over
email
doesn't
seem
to
be
is
helpful
in
each
case
and
then
I've
had
some
seniors.
Who
just
aren't
that
savvy
on
email?
G
I
We
receive
a
annual
payment
from
the
library
that
covers
everything,
so
I
believe
it's
$250,000
a
year
and
it
covers
what's
what's
your
prescribed
in
the
MOU,
so
that
would
be
services
that
are
provided
by
our
IT
staff,
our
HR
staff.
You
know
basically
the
needs
that
they
have
that
are
provided
by
staff
other
than
the
staff
that
they
pay
out
of
their
fund
and
their
budget,
so
that
$250,000
a
year
encompasses
all
of
their
uses.
G
I
A
good
point
that
you
bring
up
there.
The
library
has
this
desire
to
do
this
renovation.
You
guys
have
seen
that
what
they've
envisioned
in
the
past,
and
so
what's
needed
to
be
done
for
our
uses,
needs
to
be
done,
anyways
for
what
they
want
to
do
for
their
renovation,
which
is
add,
additional
cabling
for
network
cables
and
access
and
Wi-Fi
points,
and
so
the
majority
of
the
work
that
would
be
done
would
would
simply
be
reused
by
them
when
we
were
debating.
If
we
were
tea.
H
G
G
W
And
also
I
mean
this:
we
actually
could
we're
start
talking
about
starting
with
basically
five
counter
spaces
and
ten
workstations,
but
there
is
even
in
the
space
that
they
allocated
to
us,
there's
additional
space
where
we
can
add
additional
workstations.
If
we
need,
we
can
maybe
build
out
a
little
bit.
It's
all
like
trying
to
do
it
as
expensively
as
possible,
but
in
terms
of
what
your
comments
about
administrative
adjudication,
we
can
create
a
private
area
for
some
of
those
meetings
and
have
administrative
adjudication
moved
there.
I
think
that
there
are
options.
W
The
goal
is
to
do
something
that
is
requires
a
minimal
investment
at
this
point.
So
as
we
continue
to
move
forward
as
I
refer
to
talking
to
Oliver
Rainey
that
we
basically
in
many
cases,
just
solving
problems
as
they
come
up
and
pandemic.
We
have
some
flexibility
and
we
haven't
over
committed
ourselves
all
and
put
all
of
our
eggs
in
one
basket,
to
move
some
more
stuff
to
the
library
or
to
look
at
good
choices
about
how
to
handle
additional
problems.
C
Well,
I
really
appreciate
this
conversation.
I
appreciate,
Lara's
presentation,
that's
been
really
informative
about
just
what
this
temporary
rule
would
look
like,
and
it
seems
like
a
really
good
idea
to
me.
I
heard
you
to
flesh
out
the
details
for
us
and
you've
gotten
a
lot
of
information
from
my
colleagues
about
different
services
that
we
to
be
thinking
about,
and
I
I,
like
ottoman
fleming
and
ottoman
bracelet.
C
Who
been
having
trouble
getting
their
building
permits
own
I?
Guess
the
one
piece
of
information
just
to
go
back
to
other
than
Simmons
comments
about
comments
from
residents
about
the
habitat
and
the
trees
and
things
at
our
current
Ridge
Avenue
site.
The
one
area
that
I'm
hearing
a
lot
about
is
the
native
garden
on
the
northeast
corner
of
the
property,
because
it's
really
filled
out.
Amazingly
with
you
know,
plants
and
butterflies
and
birds
and
signage
for
the
plants
of
people.
Who've
been
working
on.
That
garden
are
really.
C
W
Absolutely
I
know
exactly
what
you're
talking
about,
and
the
volunteers
have
really
done
a
wonderful
job
with
that
space.
The
purpose
of
doing
this
temporary
move
to
the
library
is
actually
to
avoid
trying
to
commit
permanently
to
what
we
want
to
do
with
the
Civic
Center.
Until
there
is
more
of
a
chance
to
discuss
what
we
want
to
do.
An
aesthetic,
cider
and
I
am
I
think
we're
at
or
even
though
the
discussion
has
gone
on
for
over
20
years.
At
this
point,
I
really
think
we're
at
the
beginning
of
that
discussion.
W
There
there
is
a
public
conversation
that
has
to
happen
that
we
just
haven't
had
the
opportunity,
with
everything
going
on
to
really
look
at
and
so
I
absolutely
think
that
there
are
a
lot
of
choices
about
how
to
move
forward.
I
think
if
we
do
want
to
move
forward
with
looking
at
something
with
that
property,
that's
something
that
happens
more
in
a
public
space.
There
are
templates
from
previous
studies,
but
which
even
a
really
considered
a
portable
housing.
W
C
W
One
of
the
things
that
we're
always
sort
of
in
common
with
previous
things
are
studies
that
were
done
were
the
need
to
maintain
dedicated
park.
Space
I,
think
one
option
really
looked
at
moving
the
building
into
Ingram
Park
and
then
moving
the
park
closer
to
rich
Avenue
and
I.
Think
that
was
just
one
option
in
a
study
of
several
options,
and
most
studies
did
not
even
really
consider
that
that's
that
Park
area
is
a
true
asset
to
the
community
and
I.
W
Don't
think
anyone
that
I've
spoken
to
is
interested
in
chopping
down
heritage,
trees
along
the
Javan
ooh,
so
I,
you
know
it's
all
a
matter
of
if,
if,
through
a
process
of
society
to
put
that
building
on
the
market,
it's
a
just
or
development,
it's
a
decision
that
the
community
will
be
involved,
definitely
and
what
that
looks
like
and
if
it
isn't,
and
it
was
determined
to
do
the
necessary
improvements
to
the
Civic
Center.
That
can
be
done.
It
is
expensive
and
it
will
be
painful
because
it
will
be
a
multi-year
construction.
W
A
You
know
given
the
pandemic
and
the
sense
that
it
makes
to
relocate
certain
activities
or
functions
to
have
the
staff
continue
down
that
road,
but
the
longer
term
of
you
know:
where
do
we
want
these
city
functions
permanently,
to
come
back
to
the
Civic
Center
or
to
go
someplace
else
that,
along
with,
if
it's
to
go
someplace
else?
What
to
do
that?
That
property?
We
won't
have
a
more
robust
community
conversation
about
that.
So
I
would
just
ask
my
if
you
all
you
and
Eric
and
others
to
talk
about
that.
A
A
What
I
asked,
because
you
had
an
APW
meeting
tonight
if
everybody
would
just
take
a
minute
and
look
at
the
agenda,
both
the
items
in
minutes
the
APWU
and
the
P&V
items,
as
well
as
the
Economic,
Development
Committee,
and
then
appointments
and
please
let
me
know
if
there's
anything
you'd
like
to
take
off
for
further
discussion.
So
we're
talking
about
items
you
want
to
take
off
their
consent.
Could.
A

A
M
A
A
A
A
F
A
U
G
U
G
A
U
U
G
A
X
P
A
N
Minutes
be
taken
off
the
consent
agenda.
The
this
particular
bird
I
guess
iteration
of
the
minutes
that
is
generally
okay.
However,
the
June
8th
minutes
contained
an
omission
that
it
mentioned.
He
was
going
to
correct
previously
and
the
omission
was
not
corrected.
Specifically
in
the
clerk's
comments.
He
had
referenced
of
a
comment
from
Kelly
Marcel
and
had
indicated
that
she
was
opposed
or
I
remember
the
wording,
but
the
general
idea
was
that
she
was
not
in
favor
of
a
public
process
for
the
city
manager
selection,
and
that
was
not
what
her
submitted
comments
said.
N
So
she
has
been
asking
that
that
be
corrected.
I
did
speak
to
cook
read
earlier,
and
so
he
will
do
that,
but
so
we
do
have
to
because
the
June
8th
meetings
minutes
where
he
approved
we
do
have
to
have
a
motion
to
correct
those.
So
I'd
like
to
move
that
we
correct
the
June
8th
meetings
to
accurately
reflect
miss
Marcel's
power,
hi.
L
O
E
A
G
A
A
A
N
You
with
regards
to
be
to
the
bills
I,
like
I,
would
like
to
move
that
we
amend
the
bills
and
we
move
a
portion
that
is
on
page
33
honor
Department
14.
There
is
a
section
for
I
think
four
invoices
for
election
consulting
in
the
clerk's
office
clerk
reads
not
with
us
tonight.
I
have
some
questions
and
concerns
about
that.
It
looks
like
these
services
for
elections,
consulting
will
provided
a
after
election,
so
until
we
get
some
clarity,
I'm
not
comfortable,
approving
that
and
those
invoices.

up

is
resolution,
58,
r
20,
extending
the
declare
state
of
emergency
July,

2020.
That
was
done.
We
had
some
questions
regarding
them
in
so
far,
and
the
kind
of
the
rationale
for
the
declaration
of
state
of
emergency,
so
legal
counsel,
I,
believe,
is
bringing
it
back
next
meeting
with
more
information,
we
had
some
questions,
so
we
amended
the
date.
Okay,.

My
objection
is
not
so
much
an
objection,
it's
sort
of
all
on
peeling
the
onion
here,
so
the
what
what
is
being
requested
is
the
change
of
a
liquor
license
that
was
issued
under
open
space.
Zoning
and
my
understanding
is
that
we
don't
have
any
other
private
liquor
licenses
that
first
of
all
open
space.
Zoning
doesn't
even
allow
for
litter
licenses.
Secondly,
they
wouldn't
allow
for
a
bar
or
a
restaurant,
and
a
bar
under
open
space.
M
What
they're
asking
to
do
is
to
open
open
a
bar
to
the
general
public
on
open
space,
land
and
I'm
struggling
with
that,
because
we've
got
lots
of
open
space
land
we've
had
interest
in
the
past
from
folks
who
would
like
to
come
in
and
operate
food
service
and
and
serve
alcohol
and
we've
said
no
to
them
in
the
past.
My
understanding
is
that
we've
always
said
no
to
anyone
who
wanted
to
sell
alcohol
in
the
parks
other
than
for
a
a
temporary
permit
of
a
special
event
or
a
one-day
event,
or
something
like
that.

That's
not
what
this
is
and
I
before
we
before
we
expand
this
license.
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
we
know
exactly
what
we're
doing
and
the
implications
that
it
may
have
for
the
rest
of
the
parks
in
our
park
system
and
the
lakefront
harley
clark,
the
arrington,
the
balloon
other
parks
within
the
city
I.
M
I
just
don't
feel
comfortable
with
it,
and
I
I
would
feel
most
comfortable
in
referring
this
to
the
plan.
Commission.
Maybe
we
want
to
add
a
special
use
under
open
space
zoning.
Maybe
we
want
to
add
a
special
used
for
not-for-profits
to
operate,
to
serve
liquor
for
sale
in
our
power
plant.
That
would
be
something
for
them
to
discuss
and
make
a
recommendation
to
Council,
but
I
I
think
this
is
not
the
way
to
make
this
kind
of
policy
change
that
has
been
in
Evanston
on
part
of
our
history.
M
For
ever
so
that's
that's
my
discomfort
with
this
I
that
this
had
been
brought
up
with
the
liquor
board
meeting
I,
think
I
think
it
should
have
been
discussed
there,
and
maybe
that's
just
one
of
the
problems
that
we
have
with
trying
to
do
so
much
from
so
many
different
locations
that
we're
not
all
together
to
talk
about
these
things.
But
I
would
caution
everybody
to
just
kind
of
slow
down
and
take
take
a
look
at
this
and
see
if
this
is
indeed
what
you
want
to
be
doing
for
the
future.
C
Just
a
little
more
background
about
American
Legion
and
what
what
is
currently
happening
so
they
have
a
class
s
liquor
license
there.
They
only
entertain
in
Evanston
has
to
license
because
it's
only
allowed
for
veteran
associations
and
they
currently
and
they're
allowed
to
serve
alcohol
to
members,
and
they
have
three
categories
of
members
veterans.
C
C
You
have
to
be
more
welcoming
to
neighbors
and
golfers
to
be
able
to
enjoy,
and
particularly
over
the
summit
and
the
reason
to
that
I
was
in
favor
of
suspending
the
rule.
Is
this
because
they
do
have
this
slowly
little
patio
area
and
it's
a
shame
not
to
be
able
to
be
using
it
during
or
covet
summer.
Here,
I.
C
A
So
why
don't
we?
Why
don't
we
do
this
I,
don't
see
any
more
conversation?
This
is
for
it
was
for
introduction
in
action.
Why
don't
we
just
move
this
for
introduction?
You
know
give
everybody
two
weeks
to
have
discussions,
think
about
it
more
and
then
it
else.
If
you
decide,
then
you
CA,
because
agenda
for
action,
timing.
A
A
N
You
Edie
to
is
approval
of
funding
for
Chicago's
North,
Shore,
Convention
and
Visitors
Bureau.
The
economic
development
committee
and
staff
are
recommending
city
council
approval
of
funding
for
the
Chicago
North
Shore
commencement,
Convention
and
Visitors
Bureau
in
the
amount
of
forty
one
thousand
eight
hundred
five
dollars
for
the
period
of
July
first
2020
through
June
30th
2021.
N
This
represents
a
50%
decrease
from
their
2019
allocation,
Economic,
Development
Partnership
account
is
number
100
and
the
details
of
the
account
I
won't
read
the
City
Council
approved
one
hundred
and
forty
seven
thousand
dollars
for
2020,
and
the
city
has
committed
fifty
thousand
dollars
to
downtown
Evanston
for
enhanced
trash
removal
and
marketing
for
2020,
upon
approval
of
the
record,
reduced
request
and
accounting
for
the
$50,000
at
mark
commitment.
Fifty
five
thousand
one
hundred
ninety
five
dollars
will
remain
in
the
account
I
move
approval.
A
Z
Z
Z
A
A
AA
Obviously,
our
industry
has
been
hit
really
hard
by
kovat.
We've
worked
really
diligently
to
just
change
what
we
do
in
terms
of
our
marketing
I.
Think
we've
been
pretty
successful
through
entire
kovat
in
promoting
the
restaurants
and
things
that
have
often
during
the
various
phases.
We
have
a
long
road
to
come
back
to
where
we
were
before
and
we
are
committed
to
the
successful
return
to
you
know:
business
for
our
restaurants
and
our
hotels.
AA
We
know
that
things
are
very
compromised
now,
but
there
is
hope-
and
we've
done
a
pretty
good
job
in
making
sure
that
the
Avastin
restaurants
and
all
their
different
phases
have
been
voted
well
to
not
only
the
people
within
Evanston
but
to
the
communities
around
it,
and
during
this
time
period
we
have
eliminated
our
membership
restriction.
So
we
represent
any
restaurant
that
wants
our
assistance
and
support
and
we've
really
been
open
and
I
think
done.
A
really
good
job
and
supporting
these
businesses
that
are
struggling.
A
V
AA
Right
now,
our
rules
are
that
if
the
community
leads
us
that
they
have
to,
they
have
to
be
years
until
they
can
come
back.
But
you
know
we
think
that
what
the
restaurants
need
in
terms
of
supporting
their
employees
and
keeping
as
many
people
employed
as
possible
and
keeping
these
restaurants
open,
so
that
they're
there
when
things
we
cover,
is
very
important.
N
Accentuating
one
of
my
constituents
concerns
about
the
fireworks.
I
heard
some
in
the
background,
but
no
I
think
that
it
really
actually
this
is.
This
is
the
time
that
we
are
gonna
need
this
marketing
resource.
This
is
the
kind
of
marketing
and
networking
that
we
are
really
not
in
a
financial
is
going
to
do
so.
N
The
the
Bureau
is
very
adept
at
doing
the
work
age,
I
think
they've
done
a
good
job
in
the
past
and
well
I.
Don't
want
to
spend
any
more
money
than
I
need
to,
but
then
we
need
to
it
seems
like
this
is
money
well
spent
I
appreciate
the
fact
that
the
that
the
askus
has
been
reduced
by
fifty
percent,
but
as
we
get
businesses
back
online,
there
I've
been
need
that
backup,
and
there
are
indeed
networking
resources
that
that
otherwise
wouldn't
be
available
to
him.
G
I
also
appreciate
that
the
cost
has
been
reduced.
However,
I've
had
this
question
for
several
years,
and
maybe
this
wasn't
I,
don't
see
it
in
here
as
I'm
always
trying
to
figure
out
what
our
outcome
I
mean,
what
the
what
the
outcome
is
for
the
money,
we're
spending
so
I
know
that
in
years
past
you
know,
you've
brought
for
some
numbers
and
how
many
were
throws
you
make
you're
not
always
able
to.
You
know
then
connect
that
to
actual
business
that's
coming
to
ever
since
I.
G
Maybe
that's
not
the
way
that
you
calculate
things
but
well
I
think
our
businesses
need.
You
know.
Some
support.
I
have
not
heard
from
them
to
know
that
this
is
exactly
the
support
or
that
they
can
tell
me.
People
are
coming
in
based
on
on
the
marketing
that
you're
doing,
I
think
that
our
SS
A's
and
business
community
here
and
ever
since
seems
to
do
a
really
good
job,
obviously
I'm
in
town,
but
again
I'm.
Looking
at
fifty
thousand
dollars.
G
You
know
for
your
services,
which
I'm
still
not
exactly
sure
how
that
pays
off
for
the
business
owners,
but
I
would
much
whether
it's
been
some,
if
not
all,
of
that
money
in
very
tangible
ways.
As
you
know,
more
of
Economic
Development
grants
for
such
to
businesses
may
be
allowing
them
to
market
themselves
and
maybe
that's
how
they
use
it
to
staff.
Well,
maybe
they
use
in
some
other
kind
of
way.
G
I
just
need
to
see
more
of
a
tangible
outcome,
so
the
money,
we're
spending
and
I-
don't
remember
seeing
that
a
years
past,
and
definitely
this
year,
the
business
of
the
knife
chop
suit,
which
is
not
all
of
them.
You
know
they're
they're,
looking
for
more,
you
know,
grant
money
in
support
of
which
we've
tried
to
be
creative,
but
we
have
limited
funds,
so
I'm
much
more
interested
in
getting
this
money
into
the
hands
of
businesses
to
figure
out.
G
Maybe
the
best
way
they
can
grow
their
business
in
this
kind
of
economy
versus
this
membership
model
and
then
revisiting
your
agency
when
we
are
in
a
better
place
financially
and
have
just
you
know,
kind
of
back
to
a
regular
flow
of
capital
and
then
Paul.
My
question
I
have
for
you
regarding
the
trash
with
downtown.
Is
that
just
an
extra
many
of
you
were
offering
this
year?
No.
Z
That's
no
I
highlighted
that
in
a
memo
just
so
you
knew
what
the
money
was
being
spent
for
and
I
was
approved
our
last
budget
year
we
did
a
supplemental
trash
pickup
and
that's
something
that
we've
worked.
Do
it
public
works
I,
don't
know
how
many
be
raised
it.
We've
got
the
trash
with
that
additional
supplemental
funding,
but
it's
significantly
more
than
the.
Y
G
M
Thanks
so
Gina,
could
you
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
support
for
the
hotel,
so
it
comes
from
the
invention
of
Tourism
Bureau,
it's
extremely
extremely
important.
I,
don't
know
if
you
guys
have
googled
hotels
recently,
but
the
origin
is
closed,
and
so,
when
all
the
end
of
end
of
August
I
mean
there
we
need
we
need
to
for
the
general
public
that
to
come
back
to
Evanston
to
stay
in
Evanston,
it's
gonna
be
real
difficult
for
them,
with
north
Sterne,
basically
not
being
doing
what
they've
been
doing
and
yeah.
M
AA
As
you
know,
the
orange
is
close,
but
the
other
ones
are
not
and
Drive
a
staff
person
that
just
works
in
the
hotels
they
have
special
offers.
Now,
as
you
know,
in
phase
four,
they
can
have
up
to
50
people
we're
working
on
smaller
meetings
and
groups
that
are
coming
to
the
hotels,
it's
very
different
than
what
we
used
to
do
in
the
past,
we're
dealing
with
more
local
business
and
we
are
literally
on
a
weekly
basis,
updating
what
the
hotel's
the
specials
they're
offering
for
families
that
are
coming
to
visit
relatives.
AA
Our
marketing
has
totally
changed
to
adapt
to
what
phase
four
can
accommodate
to
get
any
kind
of
business
into
the
hotels.
Most
of
them
are
opening.
As
you
know,
the
Graduate
is
opening
in
September
we're
already
working
with
them,
they're
very
eager
to
work
with
us.
They
work
with
Convention
bureaus
in
each
of
the
cities
that
they're
in,
as
you
know,
they're
in
college
towns
and
they're
not
waiting.
AA
They
all
have
sales
staff
that
are
working
now,
even
though
or
inton
has
a
director
of
sales
that
is
booking
business
for
the
fall
and
we're
their
lifeline.
They
have
reduced
their
staffs
by
80
percent.
They
have
no
sales
or
marketing
dollars
right
now,
at
this
point,
were
it
for
them
so
right,
it's
very
important
to
them
right.

Thank
you.
Sir
edy
two
passes
the
NC
City
Council
on
a
7/16
vote.
I
would
like
to
thank
everyone
that
has
applied
in
the
Seavey's
that
was
appointed
to
afford
or
finishing
these
four
committee.
We
had
a
lot
of
people,
one
of
the
Kimberly
Richardson.
He
helped
me,
but
we
had
a
lot
of
vacancies
filled
and
I
appreciate
that
passing
on
the
consent
agenda.
Tonight,
we're
now
going
to
turn
to
all
of
the
wards
when
start
with
altman
rudolfinum.
A
A
M
G
Okay,
I
just
have
a
word
meeting
on
Wednesday
July,
the
15th
I'm
at
you
in
the
city
calendar
for
the
zone
link
or
whatever
we're
using
and
on
July
26
2011,
stuffington
and
I
are
having
a
joint
meeting
about
policing.
M
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
all
right,
I'm
gonna
try
to
get
this
right
this
time,
so
I'm
going
to
make
a
reference
to
the
fact:
Commission.
Okay,
just
one
second
I'm,
sorry,
okay,
we
already
his
plan
to
rezone
the
1900
of
Warrington,
beginning
with
1910
oranga,
going
north
to
1946
origin
and
then
West
to
7:14
foster
from
our
for
a
to
r1.
M
This
is
at
the
request
of
neighbors.
These
are
all
single-family
houses,
with
the
exception
of
714
foster,
which
is
a
six
flat.
We
don't
want
to
leave
a
pocket
of
our
foray
on
foster,
and
so
these
these
are
folks
again.
I
have
no
idea
why
this
wasn't
sewn
Darwin
in
the
first
place,
but
it
wasn't.
It
connects
to
our
one
from
points
north
and
then
T,
the
T
districts
on
the
east
side
and
our
five
on
the
west.
So
again,
at
the
request
of
neighbors
I'd
like
to
move
this
to
the
plan.
Commission.
M
A
U
U
H
M
Y
L
A
U
What
I
tell
you
to
shout
out
to
the
boys,
basketball,
team,
coach,
Ellis
and
the
alumni
and
volunteers
that
came
out
for
the
streets
painting
in
front
of
these
public
Oh
new
public
park
for
the
high
school
good
amazing
job?
One
of
the
things
we're
working
on
with
neighbors
in
the
community
as
well
as
high
school,
is
your
permanent
naming
so
I.
Don't
think!
That's
something!
N
All
right
I
would
like
to
make
a
referral
back
to
the
playing
Development
Committee.
We
talked
about
this
a
number
of
times
before,
but
I
think
it
is
hopefully
maybe
finally
time
to
to
repeal
the
three
unrelated
ordinance
in
conjunction
with
some
of
our
housing
initiatives.
So
I'd
like
to
refer
that
to
planning
involving.
A
H
You
just
in
response
to
the
concerns
and
the
advocacy
for
defunding
the
police
I
just
wanted
to
share
the
note
that
I
shared
with
the
advocates
a
couple
of
weeks
maybe
has
been.
A
week
ago
we
had
a
one-on-one
meeting
and
one
of
the
advocates
the
novia
Aiden
said,
abolished
the
way
we
think
of
policing
today
and
I
thought.
That
was
a
good
statement
that
she
made.
My
statement
to
them
was
I
share
your
goals
to
defund
the
police.
H
H
There
has
been
a
lot
of
discussion
concerns
from
5th
Ward
residents
on
what
does
defunding
me
and
I
would
recommend
that
you,
if
you
have
further
questions,
please
do
attend
our
warm
meetings
or
either
follow
up
with
the
advocates
that
are
hosting
meetings
on
educating
the
community
citywide,
and
thank
you
to
all
of
the
fifth
Ward
residents
and
friends
that
attended
our
fifth
board
meeting.
It
was
very
well
attended
and
it
was
productive.
Thank
you.
Thank.
V
A
Y
Think
we
need
a
boat,
so
ordinance,
6-3,
6-3,
4,
3
and
heart
reads:
amendments
proposed
by
any
governmental
agency
of
the
city
may
be
made
in
such
manner
and
pursuant
to
such
a
procedure
as
the
City
Council
deems
appropriate.
So
if
the
City
Council
just
deems
it
appropriate
to
prefer
it
back
to
committee,
that's
fine!
If
the
council
wants
to
vote
on
that
I
suppose
they
could
there's
not
much
guidance
under
the
ordinance.
So
I
don't
think
we
need
a
vote,
but
it's
not
inappropriate
it's
just
whatever
the
council
decides.
I
want
to
do.
Y
M
L
A
M
F
F
M
U
A
N
Sure,
pursuant
to
v
Illinois
compiled
statutes,
ILCs
120,
/,
2a
I
move
that
the
City
Council
convened
into
the
executive
session
to
discuss
an
agenda
item
regarding
or
agenda
gen
items
regarding
personnel.
The
agenda
items
are
provided
