C

A
Great,
we
have
eight
of
our
council
members
here
tonight.
I
know.
Unfortunately,
all
the
moonroof
Simmons
couldn't
be
here,
I,
believe
because
of
a
funeral
this
evening.
So
welcome
everybody
to
the
Monday
November
27th
City
Council,
meeting
of
the
Evanston
City
Council
I
do
not
have
any
major
public
announcements
or
special
proclamations
today.
A
Inevitably,
I
think
you
guys
all
heard
the
good
news
that
of
all
the
women
in
the
world,
Prince
Harry
decided
to
get
engaged
to
one
that
came
through
our
fine
city
for
four
years.
Pretty
it's
pretty
exciting,
so
some
Prince
Harry,
if
you're
watching
on
TV
my
bag
is
packed.
My
family
is
ready
to
go
and
represent
Evanston
at
the
royal
wedding
and
if,
by
chance
my
invitation
gets
lost,
you'll
still
get
the
royal
treatment
when
you
come
here
in
2023
for
Megan's
20th
anniversary
from
Northwestern
University,
so
congratulations,
Megan
and
Harry,
the
other.
A
The
other
big
news,
just
real
quick
to
share
I,
know
the
City
Council
members
saw
this
today,
there's
something
special
when
a
business
starts
in
this
town
and
grows
in
this
town
and
really
becomes
an
institution
to
this
community,
and
today
one
of
those
those
businesses
was
sold
and
it's
our
very
own.
First
Bank
and
Trust
here
in
Evanston,
which
was
salt,
a
byline
Bank.
So
congratulations
to
First,
Bank
and
Trust.
It's
a
little.
A
D
E
Good
evening,
mayor
Haggerty,
a
city
clerk
read
City
Council
members
as
city
manager,
Bob,
quits,
I'm,
Ivana,
Thomas,
Smith
and
I
do
have
a
brief
announcement,
I'm
so
excited
over
the
summer
we
had
everything,
Township
High
School
students
who
were
participants
in
the
mayor's
Summer
Youth
Employment
Program
they
volunteered
to
star
in
a
tobacco
and
smoking
awareness
public
service
announcement.
This
initiative
was
a
collaboration
between
Evanston
Department
of
Health
and
Human
Services,
the
Evanston
substance,
abuse
prevention
coalition,
tobacco
committee
and
Anderson
Costello.
E
Our
city's
broadcast
communications
specialists,
so
I
have
two
PSAs
that
I
want
to
share
with
you.
They
were
developed
one
first,
focusing
on
the
dangers
of
electronic
cigarettes
and
the
second
on
the
irresponsible
marketing
practices
of
tobacco
on
e
cigarette
companies
and
as
a
remembrance,
Evanson
was
the
first
community
in
Illinois
to
go
to
back
o
21,
which
restricts
tobacco
products,
things
so
to
anyone
or
purchased
by
anyone.
E
F
A
H
I
A
That's
all
happy
smear
all
right.
Thank
you,
City
Clerk,
do
you
have
any
announcements,
no
announcements,
all
right,
we're
going
to
move
on
to
public
comment.
We
have
10
people
that
have
signed
up
today
for
public
comment.
I
think
everybody.
Here's
has
been
here
before.
So,
as
you
guys
know,
we
have
45
minutes
set
aside
for
public
comment,
maximum
three
minutes
each
person.
A
So
today
with
ten
speakers,
that
means
that
everybody
will
get
up
to
three
minutes
if
they,
if
they
need
it,
I
will
give
you
a
little
nudge
when
you
have
about
15
seconds
left.
So
we
can
keep
everything
within
three
minutes.
So
today
the
first
speaker
we
have
is
Mike
for
silicon.
Then
we
have
Kelly
Nelson
and
then
Arielle
Jackson.
L
Thank
you
very
much.
I've
circulated
a
number
of
emails
to
I
thank
the
entire
council,
so
you
know
many
of
the
things
I
speaking
about,
but
to
summarize,
and
I
go
beside-
have
an
impact
on
how
you
vote
with
respect
to
the
budget
I've
mentioned
with
Howard
Street
Theater.
The
budget
line
item
that
was
submitted
and
the
2018
budget
is
in
excess
of
$250,000
more
than
it
should
be.
L
L
To
have
more
upgraded
technology
to
face
it
in
over
a
period
of
two
to
three
years
each
floor,
so
that
there's
always
at
least
one
floor
that
has
the
highest
level
of
new
technology
rather
than
to
do
the
entire
building
in
one
fell
swoop
and
spend
many
more
millions
of
dollars
and
be
left
with
old
technology
and
a
period
of
a
year
or
two.
So
I
hope
that
message
was
received.
L
Also
I
had
mentioned
several
times
about
forgoing
the
need
for
a
master
plan
of
city
lights,
I
think
that's
a
waste
of
money
and
that
money
could
be
saved.
So
some
of
these
budget
recommendations
are
kind
of
low-hanging
fruit
that
would
prevent
you
from
raising
taxes.
It
would
prevent
you
from
having
to
lay
off
staff
in
some
cases
and
in
particular,
I
wanted
to
draw
attention
again
to
the
city,
clerk
situation
and
I
know
it's
presented
differently,
but
the
fact
is:
you're
proposing
a
budget
cut
to
that
department.
L
I
fully
support
keeping
the
staff,
at
least,
as
is,
if
not
more
I,
think
you're
going
to
see
more
and
more
requests
for
information
for
a
request
coming
through
that
office
and
then
needs
a
staff
to
address
it.
There
are
a
group-
that's
elected
by
the
city.
The
citizens
of
Evanston
and
I
find
him
to
be
a
more
trustworthy
in
most
cases
than
reaching
out
to
other
members
of
staff.
This
so
I
prefer
you
leave
that
budget
alone.
Thank
you.
Thank.
A
N
M
We
wanted
to
come
before
you
tonight
to
kind
of
clarify
some
of
the
things
that
were
stated
in
last
week's
meeting
about
victim
services.
One
of
the
points
that
was
made
was
about
forensic
interviews
and
I.
Think
there
was
another
given
that
we
participated,
maybe
two
to
ten
forensic
interviews
a
year.
Well,
actually,
for
2016
victim
services
participated
in
40
forensic
interviews.
We
not
only
set
them
up,
but
we
counseled
the
therapist
explained
to
them
about
symptoms
of
trauma
and
the
victims.
M
We
attend
the
forensic
interviews
and
we
also
transport
victims
and
their
family
members
to
the
forensic
interviews
as
well.
So
we
are
actually
very
involved
in
the
forensic
interview
process.
We
not
only
attend
the
forensic
interviews,
but
we
follow
the
case
whether
the
case
goes
to
court
or
not,
and
we
also
follow
up
throughout
the
the
whole
forensic
and
investigative
process.
Secondly,
there
was
a
matter
of
on
calls
that
was
brought
up.
Last
week
last
year
in
2016,
Victim
Services
was
called
out
410
day
time
and
after
hours,
crisis
calls.
M
Currently
victim
services
is
on
call
I'm
on
call
tonight
Ariel's
on
call
tomorrow.
The
chaplains
are
a
part
of
the
on-call
team
when
one
of
the
other
advocates
one
of
the
three
of
us
left
the
bureau
to
go,
seek
employment
elsewhere,
I
have
lived
through
two
maternity
leave
or
three
maternity
leaves
during
my
time
here
at
the
police
department,
and
there
has
remained
two
full-time
advocates
and
when
there
was
a
shortage
we
an
on-call
person
was
added
and
that's
their.
That
was
their
sole
purpose,
was
to
fill
in
the
gap
for
on-call
services.
M
So
that's
kind
of
how
we've
handled
the
bureau
in
the
first
place,
so
there's
full
two
full-time
and
one
additional
advocate
at
it
strictly
for
all
calls.
As
far
as
trainings
and
education
on
trauma,
I've
done,
trainings
and
the
bureau's
done
trainings
on
elder
abuse,
child
abuse,
domestic
violence
and
sex
assault
and
a
part
of
these
trainings
is
educating
family
members
and
staff
members
and
people
in
the
community
about
signs
of
trauma,
and
these
particular
population,
as
well
as
providing
education
on
these
individual
issues.
N
One
of
the
other
topics
that
were
brought
up
was
the
issue
of
adding
a
part
or
two
part-time
staff,
and
would
it
be
cost-effective
or
not,
and
I
just
wanted
to
speak
from
my
perspective,
because
originally
in
April
of
2015
I
was
brought
on
in
a
part-time
role
to
manage
that
missing
piece.
What
I
discovered
last
week
when
we
were
talking
is
that
what
Victim
Services
considers
part-time
is
probably
not
what
you
all
had
in
mind
when
I
was
on
boarded,
it
was
clearly
a
part-time
position.
I
did
the
same
background
checks.
N
I
did
the
same
the
same
onboarding,
with
the
exception
of
the
psych
eval,
and
the
lie
detector
test
that
you
do
for
food.
However,
the
role
was
much
more
of
a
contractual
employee
in
that
I
was
paid
a
flat
rate
for
being
on
call.
So
when
it
was
my
week
we
were
in
a
three-person
rotation,
so
every
third
week
was
my
weekend
to
be
on
call
on
that
weekend.
I
was
played
a
paid,
a
flat
rate,
and
that
was
to
be
on
standby.
N
N
I
was
in
the
conference
of
my
own
home
unless
I
got
a
call
out,
once
I
got
called
out,
I
was
paid
an
hourly
rate
for
the
services
that
were
provided
so
that
the
notion
that
we
have
these
part-time
28
hour
a
week,
positions
that
that
wasn't
what
I
did.
It
was
far
more
a
contractual
type
relationship.
N
One
of
the
other
things
that
stood
out
to
me
is
when,
as
the
statement
that
there
have
been
struggles
to
cover
the
on
call
with
four
people,
and
so
I
did
some
fact-finding,
because
I
wanted
to
produce
the
evidence
based
response
and
in
speaking
with
former
victim
advocates
and
going
through
the
records
there.
It
appears
that
there
has
been
no
uncovered
on
call
weekend
in
over
15
years.
So,
although
there
may
have
been
some
problems,
that
sounds
like
victim
services
has
always
managed
to
provide
it
in
person.
O
P
Q
The
city
faces
a
great
loss
with
the
departure
Marty
lines,
not
so
much
because
of
his
financial
or
budgetary
knowledge,
but
because
of
his
integrity.
Mr.
lines,
on
many
occasions
after
I
had
spoken
spoken
had
suggested,
I
am
correct.
On
our
many
many
private
conversations,
I
always
came
away,
feeling
I
had
been
dealt
with
in
a
truthful
and
professional
manner.
I
believe
this
city
faces
a
large
financial
crisis
through
the
continuing
lack
of
integrity
of
the
public
officials.
Q
Here
collectively,
as
a
group
and
the
city
manager,
we
aren't
really
looking
at
a
three
percent
tax
increase
and
that's
the
end
of
this.
We
really,
if
you
look
at
everything
and
add
it
up,
it
probably
goes
over
50
to
100
percent
and,
frankly,
what
troubles
me
is
public
officials
here,
along
with
some
others,
are
covering
a
lot
of
this
up.
I
was
recently
told
by
employees
that
the
furlough
day
may
have
violated
their
contract.
Q
If
this
is
true
now
the
city
might
be
facing
potential
legal
problems,
it's
really
time
to
hold
senior
staff
here
in
the
law
department
accountable
for
this.
If
this
is
true,
breaking
contracts
to
be
is
a
lack
of
integrity
and
the
part
of
those
who
would
do
it.
I
really
feel
this
council
needs
to
respond
back
to
me
and
the
I
know
the
city
of
employees
here
who
were
furloughed
and
that's
it
that
it
widest
was
done
if
it
really
met
the
contract,
because
I
think
that
is
a
very
serious
problem.
Q
Mister
vassilis
comments
on
Howard
Street
again
trouble
me:
do
we
have
another
patio
deal
here?
It
appears
we
may
not
have
the
money
to
do
this
project.
Will
we
be
stuck
with
it's
under
$20,000
again,
so
I
can
do
it.
If
that
happens,
I
think
any
of
anybody
who
attempts
to
do
that
should
be
fired,
because
that's
you
would
prove
a
certain
amount
of
money
and
you
no
one,
has
the
authority
to
exceed
that
money
and
if
it
succeeded
in
any
way
the
individuals
on
staff
should
be
fired.
Q
As
a
citizen,
I'm,
really
tired
of
the
double
standard
here
of
the
lake
house
group
may
not
have
any
money
be
put
for
a
financial
ringer.
If
this
theater
group
may
not
have
even
paid
the
money,
it
always
the
city
at
this
time,
I'd
like
to
know,
what's
going
on
with
that
and
really
for
new
council
members,
you
need
to
break
away
and
start
to
question
a
lot
of
this,
because
things
are
going
to
get
really
bad
here
over
the
next
few
years.
Q
R
Thank
you.
A
Planning,
Commission
Zoning
Board
appeals
for
all
of
you
for
listening.
Thank
you
for
conducting
yourself
in
an
open
meeting
in
which
the
public,
the
people
could
voice
their
opinions,
even
if
they
did
not
recommend
a
state
for
the
rr3
zoning
at
1829
Simpson.
They
had
transparency,
transparency
and
full
view
open
government
for
the
people.
This
concerns
me
my
original
concern
complaint
against
all
Diamond
Council
members.
I'm,
not
gonna,
go
into
all
of
this
who
say
save
stuff
tonight:
I
don't
have
the
time
nor
the
patience
anymore.
R
R
Lastly,
to
the
full
council
members
again,
you
disagree
me,
but
I
will
leave
you
with
this
saying
from
Judy
Nader
and
Marion
Chuck's
Munn
I
think
it
is
a
government
that
is
not
transparent
is
more
prone
to
corruption
and
undue
influences,
because
there
is
no
public
oversight
of
decision-making.
I
hope
you
think
about
that.
Thank.
S
Haggerty
clerk
read
members
of
the
council
I'm
here
as
a
member
of
joining
forces
for
affordable
housing.
We
were
pleased
on
October
30th
when
the
council
recognized
the
importance
of
dealing
with
the
issues
of
housing,
affordability
and
we
thought
the
formation
of
a
committee
with
significant
elder
Manek
representation
to
develop
a
plan
for
strengthening
the
inclusionary
housing
ordinance
was
a
positive
step
forward.
S
The
Thanksgiving
holiday
may
have
reduced
opportunities
for
conferring,
but
we
would
like
to
know
whether
the
membership
of
the
committee
has
been
organized
and
well,
it
will
when
it
will
begin
to
hold
meetings.
We
also
would
like
to
know
who
the
two
non
automatic
members
will
include.
A
suggestion
was
made
that
a
developer,
perhaps
a
real
estate
specialist.
We
would
suggest
adding
an
individual
with
experience
in
public
housing,
development
or
fair
housing
policy.
The
next
holiday
season
will
soon
be
upon
us
and
it
would
be
reassuring
if
this
committee
can
meet
before
then.
S
As
you
well
know,
the
affordability
crisis
doesn't
pause
for
holiday
celebrations.
People
continue
to
struggle
to
pay
for
the
costs
of
their
current
housing
or
find
adequate
housing.
They
can
afford.
A
recent
study
published
in
the
Journal
of
American
Planning
Association
provides
some
evidence
that
comprehensive
plans
can
produce
better
community
outcomes.
The
author
examined
whether
housing,
affordability
for
low-income
housing
households
is
more
likely
to
be
improved
in
cities
adopting
a
local
comprehensive
plan
with
stronger,
affordable
housing
policies.
S
This
research
suggests
that
Evanson
should
not
only
be
examining
the
inclusionary
housing
ordinance
but
developing
a
comprehensive
long-term
plan
for
affordable
housing.
We
hope
very
much
to
have
an
update
from
the
councilmembers
who
agreed
to
form
this
committee
I
can
provide
or
the
sulo
that
can
provide
this
citation
of
this
article.
You
might
find
it
useful
in
your
deliberations.
I
just
want
to
I
have
a
moment
of
okay.
S
Many
of
the
people,
I
talked
to
say
to
me:
if
we
only
were
to
get
sufficient
resources
from
Northwestern,
some
of
our
problems
would
be
solved.
I.
Never
accept
that
point
of
view.
However,
I
think
it's
worth
pointing
out
in
this
agreement,
which
would
be
an
in
lieu
payment
for
properties
that
the
university
owns
and
purchased
that
there
are
major
universities
that
regard
themselves
as
certainly
on
the
with
Northwestern,
but
northwestern
has
come
up
that
pay
significant
payments
to
municipalities
like
Cambridge
and
New
Haven,
so
I
would
hope
that
the
council
will
look
into
this.
S
T
U
There's
really
great
speakers
here
and
I
want
to
say
hello
to
everybody,
so
I
support
a
lot
of
these
things.
Having
spoken
previously
about
some
of
these
issues
and
support
it,
I
was
shocked
at
the
end
of
last
week's
meeting
when
there
was
an
immediate
automatic
approval
of
capital
expenses
to
the
tune
of
a
three
million
dollar
debt,
and
the
reason
I
was
shocked
is
because
we
worked
so
hard,
it's
so
long
to
cut
here
and
there
and
social
services
and
Hut
and
I
reluck
a
cut
and
a
relook
and
maybe
maybe
no
cut
another.
U
Look.
It's
not
a
question
for
me
living
here.
I've
lived
here
when
we
had
more
social
services
and
none
of
it
was
wasted
and
I
was
saved
by
social
services
at
a
time
when
Kurt
Moore,
apparently
as
of
last
year,
Social
Services,
was
nowhere
to
be
found
to
help
me
that
includes
being
as
part
of
the
in
City
Hall.
You
need
a
person
there.
Who's
got
a
true
people
who
don't
come
in
with
lawyers
who
don't
come
in
knowing
the
system,
who
are
just
as
confused
as
somebody
who's
being
pulled
off
the
street,
not
understanding.
U
Why
and
I
think
that
that
confusion
marks
our
morality
and
ethics
with
regard
to
our
care
and
compassion
in
the
10
goals
that
are
listed,
I
was
totally
look.
I
was
like
really
enthusiastic,
I
thought.
Okay,
you
guys
are
going
to
capture
what
Evanston
is
about.
I
was
disappointed
there
too,
and
I
think
others
will
be
once
they
start
seeing
them,
because
I
find
them
on
the
internet
site
to
your
site,
but
I
did
find
it
downstairs
somewhere
and
I
in
terms
of
social
services.
U
Guess
what
we're
not
proactive,
we're
not
identifying
that
we
want
to
be
a
leader
in
any
of
these
things
that
we
were,
and
our
Health
and
Human
Services
person
I
did
not
realize
that
you
guys
take
in
interns
and
all
that
you
have
a
high
standard
for
social
services
and
so
there's
very
little
wiggle
room
for
so-called
excess,
and
no
one
I've
seen
in
social
services
asked
for
more
and
they
should
okay.
This
is
the
one
group
I
think
should
ask
for
more
and
as
a
citizen,
I
would
support
that
and
I
met.
U
I
met
very
people,
the
taxes
are
getting
harder
and
harder
for
me
right
now.
So
I
say
that,
with
all
sincerity
that
there
are
priorities,
the
city
has
to
get
priority
straight
and
in
those
priorities
there
has
to
be
social
concerns
in
your
top
ten.
We
should
not
identify
people
as
when
it's
it's
reactive,
at-risk
equus
families.
That's
it
you
look
at
those
ten.
U
So
I
want
to
say
thank
you
for
all
that
you've
done
I
kind
of
want
to
hope
and
pray
that,
instead
of
looking
at
people
who
need
help
just
like
you
look
at
businesses,
call
it
incentive,
don't
call
it
charity
because
now
I'm
LinkedIn,
you
can
go
on
LinkedIn
I've
been
looking
for
jobs
and
stuff
and
meeting
all
sorts
of
great
people.
They
talk
about
hiring
cities
and
new
philanthropies,
including
Emma
Stone.
U
It
was
a
Community.
Foundation
should
be
looking
at
ways
to
help
seniors,
stay
in
place
or
paying
taxes
and
pay
them
for
it
being
caregivers
or
pay
them
about
that.
There's
an
argument
in
LinkedIn
about
that
very
point
that
people
who
contribute
in
the
various
ways,
even
the
people
who
do
the
research
here
could
be,
could
be
part
of
a
effort,
coordinated,
obviously
by
charity
and
looked
for
benefits
and
look
for
results.
U
V
I
have
a
request
to
make
as
a
novice
and
reading
the
agendas
for
the
City,
Council
and
other
committees
and
commissions
have
a
problem,
sometimes
understanding
things
and
I'm,
making
a
request
that
we
do
a
better
job,
not
use
acronyms
that
they're
written
for
the
average
citizens
understand.
I
know
all
of
you
haven't,
probably
don't
have
a
problem
understanding
us,
but
what
I
do?
V
It
doesn't
indicate
the
P
for
and
after
amounts,
which
would
certainly
be
helpful
same
with
the
SP
14
and
SP
15
when
it
talks
about
a
building
contractor
an
SP,
16
building
contractors
not
defined
I,
don't
know
what
you
mean
by
a
building
country
list
meant
by
a
building
contractor
SP
17
tree
ever
written
refers
to
license
fees,
license
fees
for
what
Whittle
of
which
licenses
okay
with
all
of
them.
That
I
should
say
all
of
them.
V
Also,
some
of
these
things,
I
could
probably
dig
out
of
the
packet,
but
the
packets
have
been
over
500
pages
on
occasion,
so
I'm
requesting
that
the
table
contents
be
included
for
the
entire
packet.
That
would
also
help
you
to
find
the
topics
you're
interested
in
looking
further
into
so
I'm,
just
essentially
requesting
that
these
things
are
written
for
the
average
citizens
understand.
Thank
you.
Thank.
A
You,
okay,
all
right!
Well,
thank
you!

as
hard
as
we
have
worked
as
a
city
council
to
not
raise
taxes
and
to
be
creative
with
what
we
did
do
to
raise
gen
generate
revenue,
far
deficit.
It's
I
can't
support
this
increase
to
the
library.
I
applaud
that
you
want
to
be
proactive
with
your
buildings.
AB
You
mr.
mayor
at
the
last
meeting,
I
asked
director
Danzig
Lyons.
If
she
would
tell
us
if
the
lat
work
on
the
library
could
be
done
in
phases
and
suggested
that
perhaps
if
the
architect
were
available
that
that
person
might
be
able
to
address
the
the
possibility
of
of
doing
the
work
in
stages
and
how
that
might
affect
their
budget,
is
it
alright?
If
director
Lyons.
C
Good
evening
Mary
Haggerty
clerk
read
members
of
the
city
council,
city
manager,
Bob
coats,
Carradine's,
remind
your
library
director,
the
duration
of
the
main
library
renovation
will
take
18
months,
so
we
can
certainly
have
it
constructed
over
a
three-year
period.
We
could
begin
the
fourth
quarter
of
next
year,
construct
all
during
2019
and
then
finish
in
2020.
So,
of
course,
we
wouldn't
levy
any
of
the
debt
until
it
was
needed
to
be
paid,
for
we
continue
to
look
for
ways
to
conserve
costs.
C
I
mentioned
to
you
that
we'll
be
reusing
carpeting
that
was
bought
23
years
ago,
we'll
be
reusing.
Furniture
for
Robert
crown
we're
going
to
be
reusing.
Some
of
the
shelving
we
have
in
the
main
library
as
part
of
that
construction,
I'm
going
to
be
submitting
a
grant
for
$125,000
through,
live
and
learn
for
the
Secretary
of
State's
office
to
help
support
Robert
crown.
We
continue
to
look
for
ways
to
phase
this
project.
We
were
going
to
face
anyway,
so
that
we
don't
have
to
close
the
main
library
completely
we'll
move
parts
of
it
around.
C
There
was
a
gentleman
earlier
that
was
talking
about
aging
technology
and
cyclical
replacement.
That's
certainly
something
that
we
want
to
move
to,
which
is
the
best
practice
right
now
our
computers
are
around
seven
years
old,
and
so
we
will
continue
to
face
the
technology,
but
the
the
wiring
and
in
the
the
data,
certainly
needs
to
be
upgraded
all
at
one
time
we
will
come
back
with.
If
you
support
these
projects,
we
will
come
back
to
you
after
things
are
bid
and
give
you
much
more
information.
Y
Thank
you
for
that.
It's
it's
challenging
because,
of
course,
we're
trying
to
spread
out
the
cost,
but
at
the
same
time
we
want
to
get
the
work
done
and
anything
collectively.
Hopefully,
we
all
observe
the
fact
that
libraries
are
just
there
there
and
there
a
contact
point
for
so
many
members
of
the
community
in
lots
of
lots
of
different
ways:
the
opportunity
to
attend
a
series
of
sessions
and
a
lot
of
the
things
that
on
better
governance
a
few
weeks
ago.
Y
But
one
of
the
things-
that's
that's
a
repeat
point-
is
that
a
lot
of
communities
continue
to
look
for
ways
to
utilize
their
library
services.
To
improve
those
contact
points
it's
comfortable.
The
hours
are
good
yeah
there
are.
There
are
a
lot
of
things
we
just
don't
provide
books
and
in
this
a
community
meeting
place
it's
it's
a
place
where
people
do
make
that
initial
contact
to
avail
themselves
of
other
of
other
services.
Y
We
had
a
public
speaker
talking
about
what
it's
it's
not
always
comfortable
to
come
to
City
Hall,
it's
a
great
big
building,
manal
OTT
of
ways,
it's
comfortable
for
somebody
to
come
to
a
library
and
start
to
ask
some
questions
and
I've.
Seen
that
happen
quite
a
few
times
in
my
years
of
living
Evanston.
So
I
would
like
to
just
I'd
like
us
to
try
to
be
assertive
and
get
this
stuff
done
again.
All
of
in
Suffern
didn't
pointed
out
a
few
weeks
ago.
Y
The
benign
neglect
of
a
lot
of
our
infrastructure
has
had
serious
repercussions
for
costs
and,
and
it
makes
things
cost
more.
So
some
of
your
points-
computers,
I,
get
frustrated
because
in
my
office
in
my
day,
job
I
want
a
new
computer,
but
I
think
you
know
the
internet
browser
doesn't
work
anymore.
It's
it's
maddening,
so
it's
really
really
hard
to
keep
up
with
all
of
those
things
and
I
can
appreciate
that
about
well.
Some
of
your
challenge
is
trying
to
keep.
Y
A
C
T
T
If
we
think
about
what
our
library
was
like
in
1995
or
98,
or
even
2000,
its
a
dramatically
different
building
and
services
that
are
provided
now,
some
of
which
were
unthinkable
to
us
even
fifteen
years
ago,
I
was
at
a
National
League
of
Cities
conference.
Probably
two
years
ago,
three
years
ago,
I
was
at
a
workshop
on
the
digital
divide
and
they
had
a
representatives
of
Google
and
Microsoft
and
I.
Think
Seattle's
Public
Library
there
to
talk
about
ways
in
which
we
could
bridge
the
digital
divide.
T
Community
and
I
think
we
were
wise
to
build
a
new
library
when
we
did,
but
the
that
wisdom
has
to
continue
in
terms
of
continuing
to
innovate
and
provide
services
and,
as
alderman
Wilson
said,
for
many
people,
the
only
contact
that
they
have,
but
the
city
government
is
in
our
library
and
it's
one
of
the
best
contacts
they
have
so
and
I
want
to
keep
it
that
way.
So
I
believe
that
this
is
the
right
step
and
that
we
should
move
forward
and
expanding
the
project
only
costs
more
money.
We
should
get
it
done.
AC
Up
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
just
what
a
first
sake.
Thank
you
very
much
Karen
for
the
time.
Just
to
help
you
to
understand
the
the
basic
needs
in
infrastructure
of
the
of
the
public
library
and
I
do
also
believe
it's
it's
a
very
important
resource
and
asset
in
our
town.
I'll
share
with
you
all
I
mean
my.
My
son
probably
spends
more
time
in
the
public
library
than
any
other
public
facility.
AC
AC
AB
That's
the
word
out
there
on
the
on
the
street
that
people
are
very
very
concerned
and
I
am
too
and
I
wish.
There
was
something
that
we
could
show
them
and
would
be
more
tangible
in
that
there
could
be
savings
coming
forward.
Rather
than
just
we're
hoping
their
savings
and
we'll
keep
them
up
to
date,
if
there
are
savings,
I
wish
there
was
a
way
to
stage
this
project
in
a
way
that
we
could
make
them
feel
more
comfortable.
AB
W
Don't
think
anybody
that
has
written
to
me
and
I've
had
lots
of
comments
about
this.
Anybody
objects
to
anything
you
want
to
do
in
terms
of
making
whole
the
current
library.
It's
just
that,
there's
a
feeling
that
the
library
is
out
of
control
and
it's
everywhere,
there's
a
library
here,
a
library
there
and
I
think
the
biggest
criticism
is
the
library
at
the
rabbit
crown
Center.
That
I
think
is
the
biggest
complaint.
Why
do
we
need
another
library
at
the
Robert
Crown
Center?
W
I
I
thought
that
that
was
rather
telling
and
a
lot
of
the
work
that's
being
done
on
the
library
appears
to
me
to
be
and
I
know,
there's
electrical
work
and
that
kind
of
work,
but
a
lot
of
it
looks
very
fancy
and
very,
very
cosmetic
and
very
beautiful
and
who
wouldn't
want
to
sit
around
there.
But
if
you're,
if
you're,
if
you're
afraid
alderman
Wilson,
if
you're
not
to
interrupt,
but
if
you're,
if
you
feel
uncomfortable
coming
to
City
Hall
an
old
stodgy,
you
know
raggedy
place.
W
How
comfortable
can
you
feel
going
into
this
elegant
exquisite
library,
I
mean
it
would
feel
less
comfortable
going
there
than
I
would
come
in
here,
but
that
I'm
just
being
sarcastic
but
I
just
think
you
should
have
come
back
with
some
savings
and
I
I
mean
you
know,
I
I'd
like
to
ask
you
to
chop
off
a
million
dollars
here,
I
think
I.
Think
it's
overdone
I
think
you
could
do
that
and
you
know
I,
don't
see
why
I
can't
and
I
don't
know
does
this
have
to
be
past
tonight?
D
W
A
Y
I
continue
to
be
surprised
that
they're
different,
that
an
argument
persists
that
somehow
the
library
is
not
a
social
service.
Okay,
what
and
as
far
as
expanding
the
library
services,
it's
like
I,
said
before
this
is
a
contact
point
for
a
lot
of
people
in
the
community.
Okay,
it's
an
initial
contact
point
for
a
lot
of
people
in
the
community.
Y
I've
got
kids,
two
kids
in
college,
one
kid
in
middle
school
and
through
my
kids
school
careers,
countless
kids
have
been
at
my
house
because
they
don't
have
computers
in
their
home
or
they
don't
have
internet
and
they
don't
have
convenient
access
to
the
fabulous
library.
That's
in
the
first
Ward.
That
is
a
practical
reality
that
a
huge
swath
of
the
city
is
effectively
denied
the
amazing
services
of
this
fabulous
library.
Now
you
can
say,
oh,
they
can
get
on
the
bus,
so
they
can
get
on.
You
know
they
can
there.
Y
There
are
ways
to
get
on
there,
but
as
a
good
friend
of
mine
who's,
a
principal
at
a
school
once
said,
you've
got
to
come
to
my
school.
You
come
to
where
my
kids
are.
You
don't
expect
my
kids
to
get
all
the
way
on
the
other
side
of
town,
because
you
know
what
it's
not
going
to
happen,
how
many
conversations
that
we
had
about
equity
and
fairness?
Y
Y
We
had
to
do
that
for
financial
reasons,
and
you
know
what
people
in
the
community
banded
together
and
opened
their
own
little
library,
and
it
was
frankly,
it
was
kind
of
remarkable
and
the
council
used
to
control
the
library
budget,
but
we
were,
we
collectively
were
so
abrasive
and
a
hostile
towards
the
appointed
people
who
do
that
job
for
free
and
they
do
you
know
these.
Are
these
are
volunteers?
We
can't
treat
volunteers
and
people
that
are
doing
something
for
free
to
help
our
community
poorly.
Y
So
they've
spent
a
lot
of
time,
effort
and
energy
on
this
not
to
get
rich
themselves.
They
do
that
because
they're
participating
in
the
community-
and
these
are
the
kinds
of
things
where
it's
time
for
us
to
step
up
and
make
these
commitments
and
again
I'm
supportive
of
this
I-
don't
like
how
much
it
costs,
but
we
have
to
make
commitments
to
our
infrastructure.
We
have
to
make
commitments
to
maintain
these
things.
I
was
on
the
council
when
we
built
the
fabulous
library.
Y
I,
probably
wouldn't,
have
picked
to
build
a
building
as
fabulous
as
it
is.
Okay,
it
probably
cost
more
than
what
we
needed,
but
it's
done.
I
gotta
live
with
what
we
got.
Okay
came
in
under
budget
still,
but
we
have
to
you
know
we
can't
you
know
we
have
to
maintain
these
things,
and
you
know
they
go
to
the
point
about
the
crown
project.
I
view
it
as
a
necessity.
I
view
it
as
a
responsible
thing
to
make
sure
that
our
community
has
access
to
these
resources.
T
What
we
have
wanted,
what
everyone
has
wanted
to
have
is
to
have
more
branch,
libraries,
more
libraries,
more
access
and
over
time
it
has
become
increasingly
more
important,
as
the
digital
divide
has
become
a
chasm
for
so
many
people
in
our
community
director,
Danzig
Lyons
has
been
working
on
this
furiously
to
try
and
provide
the
mobile
hotspots.
The
you
know
the
other
ways
that
we
can
provide
access
to
the
community.
During
the
recession
we
had
people
helping
librarians
helping
people
do
job
searches
on
our
computers
at
the
library.
T
That
was
one
of
the
most
critical
functions
for
so
many
people.
I
knew
many
people
who
did
not
have
computer
functions
at
home
anymore
and
the
library
was
their
lifeline.
I
mean
the
library
has
expanded
its
use
in
so
many
ways
and
on
at
the
other
point
I
want
to
make.
Is
we
have
been
starving
our
library
for
years?
If
you
look
at
the
difference
between
per-capita
spending
with
us
and
Skokie
and
with
us
and
we'll
Matt
I
am
staggered
that
we
I'm
ashamed
at
how
poorly
we
have
funded
our
library
over
all
the
years.
T
It's
amazing
to
me
the
services
that
they
provide,
given
how
little
money
they
operate
on,
go
to
Skokie.
Well,
actually,
don't
go
to
Skokie,
but
go
to
Skokie
just
walk
through
their
children's
library,
walk
through
Mill
Mets
children's
library,
it's
teeming
with
books
and
things
to
do
our
children's
library
room
got
renovated
twelve
years
fifteen
years
ago,
transformed
it
absolutely
transformed
it.
We.
This
is
not
a
luxury
item
that
we're
doing.
We
have
been
starving
it
for
years.
It's
time
we
properly
funded
it
when
the
funding
was
needed,
and
that
is
now
I.
W
Dream
of
cutting
a
service
at
the
library,
I
wouldn't
dream
of
it.
I
just
don't
think
it
has
to
be
the
Taj
Mahal
I.
Just
don't
think
that
I
I
didn't
say
it
was
right
now
I
said
I,
don't
think
it
has
to
be,
don't
want
to
cut
any
services
and,
besides
just
so
you
all
know
the
the
levy
Center,
which
people
were
ready
to
cut,
has
has
computers.
W
And
if
you
go
in
there
at
night,
you
will
see
all
kinds
of
people
sitting
there
using
the
computers
there,
then
that
is
a
social
service
user
use.
Also,
so
you
know,
I
mean
the
reason
why
our
library
has
suffered
compared
to
Skokie
and
Wilmette
etcetera
is
because
we
have
so
many
libraries
we're
spreading
our
library
money
all
over
town.
W
If
we,
how
many
libraries
you
go
to
in
Skokie
one,
how
many
libraries
you
go
to
in
will
melt,
one
I
mean:
we've:
we've
used
our
money
differently
here,
we've
used
it
differently,
so
we
can
satisfy
the
people
up
on
central
streets,
so
we
can
satisfy
people
over
in
the
Third
Ward,
so
I
mean
we
just
keep
spreading
it
around.
Instead
of
using
it
more
smartly,
that's
I
know
you
don't
like
to
hear
that,
but
it's
true.
W
If
we
had
really
focused
on
using
our
money,
more
smart,
wait
just
add
up
all
the
thousands
of
dollars
we've
paid
on
building
I
mean
the
buildings
we
have.
We
have
spent
money
on
for
this
library
for
library
services.
It's
you
know
it's
just
like
dumping
money
down
a
rat
hole.
We
our
buildings,
have
required
extensive
renovation
and
maintenance
extensive
this
library,
not
so
much
because
it's
it's
been
well
cared
for,
I,
hope,
I,
think
and
I
think
you've
done
a
great
job,
but
I'm
not
talking
about
cutting
services
for
the
library.
W
You
know
that
don't
I
would
never
do
that,
but
I
just
don't
think
that
we
need
it
of
all
tie.
It's
really
kind
of
a
slap
in
the
face
to
the
citizenry
to
come
in
and
say
that
we
have
to
raise
taxes,
eight
and
a
half
percent.
Whatever
it
is,
it's
it's
just
not
necessary.
It
could
have
been
done
a
different
way.
It
could
have
been,
but
nobody
even
made.
My
concern
is
that
nobody
even
tried
to
take
a
stab
at
reducing
that
amount,
not
even
a
little
stamp
when
I
spend
days.
W
X
I
just
want
to
clarify,
because
the
conversation
has
gone
a
little
bit
around
the
world,
so
my
my
vote
is
based
on
what
I
believe
is
financial
responsibility,
so
I'm
not
saying
that
we
have
the
best
library
in
all
ten
counties
or
anything
like
that.
I
understand
that
repairs
need
to
be
made.
I
would
be
inclined
to
support
it
if
it
was
based
on
you
know,
infrastructure
technology
so
on
and
so
forth.
I
understand
it.
It
makes
sense
to
do
that.
All
at
once.
X
I
do
understand
that
having
grown
up
with
a
mother
was
a
contractor,
but
I
also
understand
that
we
don't
have
any
money
or
have
a
lot
of
money.
I
don't
feel
comfortable
getting
us
to
so
close
to
our
debt
limit.
Although
I
understand
we
can't
raise
it,
but
I
know
that
we're
also
trying
to
not
raise
taxes
and
mr.
Lyons
if
I'm
correct,
talked
about
if
we
go
so
close
or
so
far
to
our
debt
limit
or
pass
that
I
guess.
X
You
know
we're
gonna
have
to
pay
for
this
at
some
point,
which
I
can
only
assume
he's
raising
property
taxes
which
nobody
wants
so
I
know
that
North
Branch
Library
has
done
some
renovations
and
it's
very
nice
over
there
they
spent
almost
a
half
million
dollars.
I
know
that
there's
a
and
going
to
robert
crown,
which
I
actually
think
would
be
great
because
people
in
South
evidence
can
get
to
it
better
and
that
will
be
all
in
I
think
around
three
million
dollars.
X
I
did
go
to
Robert
crown
and
there
are
buckets
on
the
floor
that
that
concerns
me
much
more
than
you
know
whether
we
have
the
fastest
Wi-Fi
or
whatever
at
the
library.
So
my
vote
is
not
that
I
think
the
library
is
horrible
or
whatever
I,
just
think
that
the
library
has
done
some
things.
I
think
the
library
will
continue
to
do
some
amazing
things.
I
think
this
is
not
the
year
for
us
to
put
this
kind
of
money
into
one
building.
AB
AB
AB
We
don't
have
to
we
just
need
to
be
responsible
and
responsive
to
all
of
the
citizens
in
our
community.
I
would
love
with
some
support
from
someone
on
the
council
to
hold
this
until
December.
Ask
you
to
go
back
just
give
us
a
an
idea
of
the
work.
That's
going
to
be
done,
where
some
possible
cuts
might
be
made.
If
you
feel
you've
done
that
then,
but
I
would
I
would
suggest
that
again.
AB
I
asked
tonight
if,
at
the
last
meeting,
I
asked
if
you'd
come
back
with
the
architect
that
maybe
you
might
be
able
to
explain
some
of
this
and
where
some
cuts
might
be
made.
I
want
to
support
you
there's
no
question
about
it,
but
I
can't
I
can't
wrap
my
head
around
this
and
I
am
very
concerned
about
our
debt
limit.
I
mean
that's
the
that's
the
last
vote.
I'm
looking
at
is,
is
approving
or
not
approving
the
budget
and
I'm
concerned
about
that.
AB
I
want
to
be
responsible
and
I
think
that
we
are
facing
a
situation
this
year.
If
you
listen
carefully
to
what
mr.
Lyon
said
last
week,
we're
gonna
pay
for
this
somewhere
down.
The
road
I
mean
you
know
everything
we're
doing
now
is
going
to
come
back
to
us
down
the
road,
and
so
we
just
can't
look
at
this
year.
D
AD
D
AD
AD
But
if
I
can
just
close
the
loop,
the
ten
million
dollar
library
renovation
project
would
create
a
tax
levy
next
year
for
the
2019
budget.
Eighteen
levy
for
the
2019
budget
of
about
six
hundred
thousand
dollars
to
pay
the
debt,
maybe
a
little
bit
more
to
pay
the
debt
on
that.
So
that
is
how
we
do
all
of
our
capital:
that's
funded
by
bonds.
AD
E
C
D
Would
you
be
able
to
come
back
on
December,
11th
and
detail
that,
because
I,
what
I'm
hearing
the
City
Council
is
concerned
about
is
the
impact
on
the
Evanston
taxpayer?
And
so,
if
you
phase
the
payments
versus
phasing
the
project,
I
think
that
would
accomplish
what
much
of
members
of
the
council
are
saying.
So
would
you
be
willing
to
come
back
and
do
that
on
the
11th
I.
C
D
That
for
a
couple
of
months
and
I,
thank
you
and
I
thank
director,
Lyons
and
members
of
the
City
Council.
If
I
may
be
so
bold
I'm,
not
hearing
objections
to
so
much
to
the
investment
and
the
building
as
I
am
the
impact
on
the
taxpayer,
and
so,
if
we
can't
come
up
with
a
way
that
spreads
that
out
still
allows
you
to
move
forward
in
your
18
month.
Time
frame,
I
think
that
that
would
give
the
council
but
they're
looking
more
and
give
you
what
you're
looking
for,
because
I
think
it
truly
is.
D
How
does
the
debt
hit
the
taxpayer?
Not?
When
is
the
construction
done,
I'm
looking
at
the
council
and
I'm,
seeing
some
nodding
heads
so
if
that
would
be
helpful
to
the
council
for
you
to
be
able
to
work
mr.
Lyons
myself
over
the
next
couple
of
weeks
to
look
at
what
that
funding
pattern
would
be
to
come
up
but
again,
what's
before
the
council,
is
an
operating
budget
increase?
So
so,
if
your
object,
you
can
agree
to
whatever
you
like
to
agree
to
object
to
whatever
you
like
to
object
to.
D
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
everyone's
clear
what
we're
talking
about.
So,
if
there's
a
concern
about
the
capital
concerned
about
how
that's
going
to
hit
the
tax
rolls
over
the
next
couple
of
years,
then
I
would
ask
your
indulgence
to
work
on
that.
If
that
doesn't
matter,
then
I
would
say
if
you're
only
focused
on
the
operating
this
evening.
That
is
what
it
is.
You
do
not
have
the
ability
to
approve
the
budget.
You
do
have
the
ability
to
approve
the
levy.
If
you
approve
the
levy
it
moves
forward.
D
T
D
Because
their
board
has
already
agreed
to
do
that
so
they're
moving
forward
with
that,
you
again
I
learned
a
lot
about
Illinois
libraries
several
years
back
and
one
of
the
things
I've
learned
is
that
when
city
councils
have
this
kind
of
discussion
with
the
municipal
library,
this
is
the
mechanism.
The
city
councils
use
as
sort
of
their
bully
pulpit
to
encourage
the
library
board
to
a
policy
direction
that
the
council,
City
Council,
would
like
to
see
so
I'm
hearing
a
mixture
of
all
of
that
this.
When.
AA
D
O
D
D
AB
Talking
under
my
breath,
I
thank
you,
mr.
city
manager,
for
that
explanation
and
Marty.
Thank
you
also.
Karen
I
think
moving
this
to
the
December
discussion
and
moving
and
discussing
it
all
together
again.
Taking
the
opportunity
to
see
things
broken
down,
I
think
will
be
extraordinarily
helpful
and
and
I
move
that
we
do
that.
Well,.
Y
Y
Y
A
W
AD
Mr.
mayor
members
of
council
city
manager,
clerk
read,
you
would
go
to
the
cover
memo
of
the
report
and
then
into
the
individual.
So
for
the
library
there
is
a
library
report
that
we
are
just
discussing
and
has
a
library
levy
separate
from
the
general
operating
levy
and
it
does
get
confusing
for
new
members
of
the
council
in
the
last
two
years
we
have
put
both
pension
levies
because
that's
a
federal,
that's
a
change
in
the
Government
Accounting
Standards
Board
requirements,
both
pension
levies
went
into
the
general
operating
levy.
AD
Now,
so
it's
some
of
you
think
that's
a
little
confusing.
It
is
because
it's
changed
in
the
last
two
years
so
that
30
million
is
operations.
I
am
RF
pension,
police,
pension
and
Fire
pension,
and
then
the
library
is
a
separate
ordinance
because
we
want
it
to
show
up
separately
on
the
bill.
I'm
sorry
about
marina
here.
AD
Service
is
never
levied
by
the
city,
and
so
it's
only
a
point
of
information.
Every
time
we
issue
a
bond
ordinance.
We
send
the
bond
ordinance
off
to
the
county,
giving
them
specific
instructions
to
levy
for
20
years,
an
amount
to
be
collected
to
pay
back
the
bonds
and
the
only
way
we
affect
that
levy
done
by
the
county
is
on
December.
11Th
I
will
bring
to
you
the
abatement
resolutions
that
say
County.
We
have
22
million
dollars
in
debt
service
to
levy
we'd
like
you
not
to
levy
about
10
million.
AD
AD
And-
and
we
do
in
the
cover-
remember-
we
do
try
to
explain
that
the
net
impact
that
two
point-
nine
five
percent
increase
overall
includes
the
debt
service,
love
you,
we
don't
many
communities,
don't
even
talk
about
their
debt
service
levy
because
their
county
does
it.
We
try
to
make
sure
of
them.
Some
residents
understand
everything
that
is
going
to
happen
with
the
tax
levy,
whether
it's
from
a
bond
or
from
an
operating
levy.
That's
why
we
talked
about
the
library
tonight
in
two
different
ways:
operating
and
bonds.
W
W
A
W
Ordinance
121,
oh
17,
amends
the
city
code,
section
52
for
hotel-motel
tax
to
include
vacation
rental
units
within
the
purview
of
the
tax.
In
addition,
staff
proposes
loving,
levying
a
7.5
percent
tax
on
the
gross
rental
receipts
from
the
leasing
or
letting
of
vacation
rental
units.
I
move
approval.
Second,.
X
So
I
thought
this
up.
I
won't
support
this,
not
because
I,
don't
I
won't
support
this,
because
we
last
week
took
a
vote
not
to
support
the
commercial
BN,
B's
and
I.
Don't
I
know
that
one
gentleman
who
has
an
air
B&B
and
my
Ward
has
it
because
he
has
a
child
in
college
and
he
is
trying
to
supplement
its
income
to
pay
for
that
and
also
offset
the
recent
tax
increase
that
we
all
felt
and
so
to
tax
him
and
not
attack
our
commercial
air.
B&Amp;B
I
think
it's
just
unfair.
X
I
know
there
was
a
conversation
about
the
air
B&B
and
all
the
things
they
can't
do
as
compared
to
a
hotel,
but
there
are
also
things
that
Airbnb
is
not
doing
as
compared
to
a
hotel
and
so
I'm
not
sure
why
we
decided
to
separate
those.
But
for
that
reason,
I
will
not
vote
for
this
tax
on
here
being
peace.
Thank.
AB
You
mr.
Marriott,
for
many
of
the
same
reasons
that
Alderman's.
Let
me
just
Express
I'm,
also
not
going
to
support
this
I
I
was
fine
with
not
taxing
the
commercial
bees
and
bees.
Until
this,
the
tax
on
air
B&B
was
suggested.
I
believe
my
my
math
was
correct
last
time
that,
based
on
the
hotel
vacancy
rates
of
about
seventy
percent
to
the
E
commercial
B&B
operating
at
seventy
percent,
the
to
commercial
B&Bs
operating
at
seventy
percent
would
have
yielded
the
city
above
between
sixty
and
seventy
thousand
dollars,
and
I.
AB
Think
that
the
letters
that
we've
gotten
in
response
have
suggested
that
we
give
the
commercial
bees
and
bees
time
to
rev
up
and
and
get
fully
occupied,
but
I
think
that
would
fall
under
economic
development
rather
than
under
relieving
them
of
the
responsibility
of
paying
this
tax.
I
Tech's
a
small
mom-and-pop
Airbnb
and
not
could
not
tax
a
commercial
B&B.
T
AB
O
W
AB
In
many
cases,
then,
then,
the
owners
of
other
properties
are
regardless
of
whether
they
have
to
pay
for
zoning
review
or
or
whatever
the
paying
for
zoning
review
is
fine,
but
adding
an
extra
fee
because
they
happen
to
live
in
a
historic
district
and
want
to
make
rent
of
renovations
to
their
house
I
think
is
unfair.
Thank
you.
A
W
Resolution
resolution
94
r17
fiscal
year,
2018
budget
of
the
city
of
Evanston.
Our
staff
is
recommending
that
we
approve
this
resolution,
which
would
all
adopt
the
2018
budget
of
the
city
of
Evanston
in
the
amount
of
335
million
nine
hundred
and
forty
two
thousand
eight
hundred
and
seventy
six
dollars.
A
W
AA
W
W
W
D
W
D
Just
mr.
mayor
members
of
the
council,
the
motion
would
be
correctly
to
the
direct
staff
to
bring
back
an
appropriate
ordinance
to
amend
the
tax.
The
the
tax
is
not
on
the
agenda
this
evening.
You
would
need
to
do
that
either
by
resolution
ordinance
by
by
ordinance,
so
we
would
give
if
this
motion
were
to
pass.
We
would
then
bring
back
an
ordinance
at
your
December
11th
meeting.
A
W
Revenue
is
exactly
the
same
all
the
time
it's
projected
at
a
million
dollars
in
it,
I
don't
know
if
they,
if
they
pad
the
revenue,
they
send
us,
but
it's
a
million
dollars
and
there
might
be
a
secret
sauce
here
someplace,
but
it's
a
million
dollars.
We
we
I
know
for
years
and
years
and
years
now,
I
I
know
other
members
of
council.
W
A
AB
X
I
have
it
is
the
time
we
can
discuss
the
victim
services
workers
just
the
appropriate
time
in
the
meeting
sure
all
right
so
I
want
one
want
to
thank
director
Thomas
for
rewriting
the
job
descriptions.
I
think
that
they,
for
me
at
least,
read
to
have
a
little
more
of
the
feel
in
which
our
community
is
expecting
these
jobs
to
be
there.
Tom
is
still
here
or
does
she?
Oh
sorry,
I
didn't
see
you
just
to
clarify
and
I
know
a
job
description
is
not
on
all
inclusive
and
I.
AC
J
X
E
Good
evening
mayor
Haggerty
clerk,
read
city
manager,
Bob
coid
city,
councilmembers,
ovando,
Thomas,
Smith,
director,
Evanston,
Health
and
Human
Services,
so
I
think
to
address
your
concerns.
The
Job
Description
just
gives
a
scope
of
the
body
of
work,
but
from
a
community
standpoint,
I
think
it's
important
that
I
reiterate
that
the
the
tasks
are
not
exhaustive.
E
Also
we
did
have
some
gaps
so
again.
These
tasks
they
are
really
indicative
of
what
the
individual
victim
may
need,
but
but
things
like
physically
going
to
a
court
appearance
and
supporting
that
victim.
That
will
still
happen
and
in
walking
people
through
a
protective
order
that
will
still
happen.
It
may
be
working
with
other
family
members
that
have
been
exposed
to
the
trauma
of
that
victim.
That
will
still
happen
as
well.
Is
that
what
you're
getting.
X
E
Sure
so
what
we've
proposed
is
that
the
the
advocates
will
still
be
housed
in
the
police
department
to
still
provide
that
synergy
and
connection
with
the
actual
officers,
but
I
think
it
would
also
be
a
consideration
to
have
a
collocation
so
that
the
like-minded
staff
can
also
work
with
an
integration
in
the
department,
so
I
futuristically.
It
makes
sense
that
they're
housed
at
the
police
station
for
continuity
of
service,
but
I
think
there'll
be
some
opportunity
to
align
with
other
staff
members
and
the
Human
Services
Division
as
well.
E
X
One
more
question:
I'm
speaking
to
the
24-hour
coverage,
so
I
can't
find
it
now,
but
there
were
three
scenarios:
I
believe
that
were
proposed
somewhere,
that
I
can't
find.
So
how
would
those
work
if
we
had
three
people?
Four
people
assume
and
they
would
take
like
miss
Ariel
talked
about
earlier
every
third
week.
You're
on
call
for
the
overnight
that
is
part
of
their
pay.
Is
that
an
additional
contracted
pay
so.
E
Currently,
in
our
department,
our
inspectors
have
what's
called
standby
pay
and
basically,
what
that
means
is
that
they
rotate
in
a
schedule
and
that
required
to
be
available
if
called
out
for
a
property
standards
issue
or
if
there's
a
restaurant
fire,
and
we
have
to
close
down
a
facility
or
to
reopen
it.
So
our
current
inspectors
and
our
environmental
health
division
operate
under
the
standby,
so
they
work
full-time
and
then
they
rotate.
E
X
You
in
the
mind
so
Mike
I
guess
what
what
I
would
like
to
support
here
is
scenario
number
three
that
you
have.
A
veil
gives
us
131
hours
of
coverage
with
two
full-time
and
two
part-time
staff,
because
there's
about
158
hours
in
the
week,
so
I
think
that
that
would
be
a
scenario
that
I
would
like
to
see
us
implemented.
I.
Thank
you
for
working
through
this
process.
I
would
just
say
this
was
eye-opening
for
me
in
terms
of
learning
what
the
department
even
does,
but
then
also
understanding
what
needs
to
be
worked
on.
X
So
I
also
would
propose
that
the
women
we
have
there
are
kept
in
place,
but
I
know
we're
not
necessarily
deciding
that
tonight,
but
I
think
scenario.
Number
three
is
one
that
provides.
The
best
coverage,
keeps
meeting
you
on
macare
and
keeps
enough
support,
since
we
don't,
you
know,
want
to
have
this
population
be
one
that's
underserved,
but
the
risk
of
not
having
that
overnight,
particularly
the
over
and
I,
can
call
out
options
if.
A
Z
The
mr.
mayor
members
of
the
council,
quick,
read
city
manager,
Brava
quits,
Erica,
store
late,
deputy
city
manager.
We
had
with
the
scenario
three.
The
savings
as
proposed
would
be
a
hundred
and
forty-one
thousand
dollars.
We
originally
budgeted
the
four
positions
at
four
hundred
fifty
one
thousand
dollars,
and
so
with
this
proposal
costing
in
the
city
three
hundred
and
ten
thousand,
these
savings
is
$141,000
and.
Z
A
A
X
X
A
A
AA
B
Noticing,
here
that
the
while
the
baseline
budget
was
a
hundred
and
ninety
one
thousand
dollars
the
proposed
budget
for
next
year
is
a
hundred
and
$13
hundred
thirteen
thousand
dollars,
which
is
a
cut.
My
budget,
the
clerk's
offices
budget,
from
what
this
is.
What
I'm
saying
here
in
the
packet,
but
the
clerk's
office
is
budget
in
2017
was
budgeted
two
hundred
and
seventy
five
thousand
dollars,
and
it's
now
gonna
go
down
to
one
hundred
and
thirteen
thousand
dollars.
That's
what's
proposed
in
the
2018
budget,
I
believe.
AD
L
AD
Members
of
council
clerk
read
nature
broad
points.
The
difference
is
again,
whereas
the
city
manager's
pointed
out,
all
of
our
calculations
were
off
the
2018
originally
proposed
budget,
but
two
thousand
the
2017
budget.
One
position
has
been
transferred
to
the
collections
office,
so
it
didn't
go
away,
but
it
did
get
counted
as
a
cut
out
of
the
entire
because,
rather
than
the
collections
office,
filling
a
customer
service
representative
that
was
vacant.
That
position
was
eliminated.
AD
One
of
the
deputy
clerks
doing
the
was
the
work
of
passports
and
transfer.
Stamps
was
put
into
collections
and
there's
cross-training
and
things
of
that
nature
going
on
right
now,
as
well
with
that
position.
So
the
more
works
being
done
than
just
passports
and
transfer
stamps
that
we're
doing
cross-training
between
all
the
CSRs
and
as
noted
but
I'm,
sorry,
but
that's
on
the
on
that
page.
So
as
noted,
we
have
191,000
996
as
the
budget
on
page
72
of
the
proposed
budget
document.
M
AD
B
W
B
AA
B
B
B
Y
AD
I
do
have
an
explanation,
though
it
is
the
same
explanation
that
does
catch
us
on
occasion,
and
that
is
the
proposed
budget
document
that
mr.
Lee
just
handed
me.
He
doesn't
include
all
of
the
budget
balancing
worksheet
changes,
so
it
wouldn't
have
included
the
three
cuts.
So
we
have
a
that
position
was
moved
out
of
the
clerk's
budget
and
into
the
collector's
office
budget,
but
it
still
counted
as
three
position
reductions
overall,
that
being
a
CSR
helped
me
out
here
we
had
the
the
three
positions
that
were
listed
for
city
manager's
office
Kate.
AD
AD
Is
but
so
they're
not
show
because
we
took
the
deputy
clerk
over
into
the
collections
office,
but
it's
still
you
know
that
was
a
transfer
of
duties
and
to
your
point,
mr.
city
manager,
we
will
show
a
chart
that
shows
how
the
two
budgets
work,
how
we
got
from
190.
That's
shown
in
the
detail
budget
page
to
113.
That's
shown.
D
A
So
we're
not
so
here's
so
I
think
we
can
wrap
this
up
on
SP
19
we're
not
gonna.
Take
an
overall
vote.
The
city
manager
and
his
staff
are
gonna,
go
back
and
take
another
look
at
this
because
we
seem
to
have
a
couple
different
numbers.
Okay
run
running
through
this,
though
they'll
come
back.
Also
they
put
the
budget
memo
together
or
whatever
to
get
it
out
to
Council
and
sit
down
with
the
clerk
and
make
sure
the
clerk
understands.

Yes
I:
this
will
be
my
last
meeting
of
the
year
because
I'm
gonna
be
traveling
and
I
wanted
to
say
a
couple
things
about
I'm
sorry,
I
won't
be
able
to
vote
on
the
budget.
I
actually
structured,
my
travel,
so
that
I
would
get
a
chance
to
vote
on
the
budget
tonight
and
you
all
know
how
I
feel
about
the
library
and
about
a
number
of
other
things.
So
I
hope
everyone
keeps
that
in
mind.
It'll
be
the
first
budget.
T
T
How
easy
he
made
my
job
over
all
of
these
years
and
how
understandable
he
made
the
city
and
also
for
all
of
his
good
humor.
When
this
job
got
to
be
a
little
bit.
Trying
Ricky
was
always
one
who
could
make
a
joke
about
things,
but
his
devotion
and
his
dedication
and
his
professionalism
is
really
was.
It
has
really
been
a
joy
to
work
with
over
all
these
years
and
he's
an
example
for
all
of
us
to
strive
for
and
I
will
really
really
miss
him.
T
Then
second
Marty
I
know
you're
already
working
Marty
I
will
miss
you
so
much
I.
Remember
when
you
first
arrived
and
I
just
breathed
the
big
sigh
of
relief,
because
here
was
somebody
who
really
made
the
budget
make
sense
and
your
professionalism
and
your
dedication
and
your
really
caring
about
the
city
of
Evanston
have
always
shown
through
and
Marty
I.
Think
you
are
someone
who
doesn't
have
a
fuse.
I
mean
you
know,
hope
people
say
that
they're
their
short
fuse.
You
don't
have
one
I
have
never
ever
seen.
You
get
angry
annoyed.
O
T
Not
it's
road
rage
all
on.
Are
your
drives
home
right
now,
Marty.
You
are
incapable
of
becoming
frustrated
annoyed
with
all
of
the
the
numbers
of
questions
and
no
matter
how
difficult
they
are.
You
always
have
taken
them
respectfully
and
thoughtfully
and
tried
very
much
to
explain
to
all
of
us
or
all
of
the
citizens.
