Description
The City of Evanston Participatory Budgeting Committee discusses forming a steering committee.
A
A
A
A
D
D
Okay,
can
you
all
see
that
cool
okay?
So
just
a
quick
update,
we've
been
doing
some
outreach,
so
we've
done
a
couple:
pop-up
deep
cam
machine
events,
the
last
one
we
had
about
19
conversations
in
an
hour
and
a
half
we
got
62
sign
ups,
which
is
great.
We
prepared
for
the
parade,
we're
ready
for
the
next
one
that
comes
up
there's.
D
Also,
we
put
up
a
website,
pbevinston.org
and
social
media
accounts
and
then
we're
starting
our
volunteer
meetings,
the
second
one
today
and
then
on
the
design
side.
We've,
the
chairman
reid.
You
asked
for
some
analysis
of
what
the
other
rule,
books
and
string
committees
do
so
we've
been
looking
into
that.
So
we
have
a
proposal
for
forming
the
steering
committee
today
and
then
some
rough
drafts
and
options
for
rule
books
for
the
30th
which
I'll
talk
about
in
a
second.
D
D
D
The
responsibilities
of
the
committee,
then,
would
be
both
drafting
the
rule
book,
but
also
doing
outreach
facilitation,
monthly
meetings
and
things
like
that.
Usually
those
student
committees
meet
monthly
so
like
on
a
wednesday
or
thursday
on
evenings
and
then
we're
proposing
a
longer
kickoff
meeting
both
to
orient
student
committee
members
and
to
get
the
the
rule
book
completed
as
quickly
as
possible
in
terms
of
recruiting.
D
The
big
decision
I
think
today
for
the
group
is
eligibility
so
who
is
allowed
to
be
on
the
string
committee?
So
we're
going
to
suggest
that,
given
that
it's
a
combined
committee,
people
who
can
mobilize
different
community
members,
especially
underrepresented
groups,
but
some
of
the
other
options
that
other
student
committees
use,
are
like
a
minimum
number
of
community
organization
representatives,
minimum
number
of
award
representatives
or
minimum
number
of
marginalized
identities,
and
then
some
just
have
no
requirements,
but
in
either
case
the
the
council
decides.
Who
is
on
the
steering
committee?
D
We
looked
into
the
alderman
membership.
It
looks
like
most
of
the
combined
committees.
Don't
have
city
council
members
sitting
on
them,
but
we
could
do
a
couple
of
different
things.
So
one
is.
We
could
have
extra
seats
just
for
the
rule
book.
If
the
council
members
don't
want
to
be
involved
on
the
leadership
and
implementation
side
or
unless
you
do
want
to
be
involved
with
that
which
would
be
awesome
or
other
cities
also
have
the
aldermen
approve
the
rule
book.
D
So
those
are
some
of
the
different
options,
but
I
think
that
number
seven
of
who
you
want
on
the
stream
committee
and
then
what
the
role
of
the
city
council
on
the
stream
committee
is
or
the
big
questions
for
today
or
anything
else
that
doesn't
look
right
here.
So
I'll
pause
there
and
see
if
there's
any
questions
or
if
that
proposal
looks
good
or
if
there's
anything
you
want
to
change.
F
And
it
looks
at
addressing
the
health
and
economic
opportunities
and
overall
well-being
of
evanstonians,
with
a
particular
focus
on
our
lower-income
residents,
who
are
very
much
the
same
target
of
who
we're
supposed
to
be
helping
with
arpa
and
or
focusing
our
arpa
money
on.
And
I
wanted
to
raise
that
as
a
potential
way
of
sort
of
framing
how
to
focus
participatory
budgeting.
D
B
D
Rule
books
have
requirements
about
you
know
where
money
is
spent,
what
it
gets
spent
on
like
minimums
for
certain
topics
even-
and
we
definitely
have
to
have
that
in
the
rulebook
like
for
the
arpa
eligibility,
also
in
the
process
that
there's
different
ways
that
the
rule
book
will
specify
how
staff
are
going
to
vet
projects.
So
it
comes
up
there.
D
I
think
another
thing
we
could
do
if
we
want
to
get
started
on
that
even
earlier
is,
I
think
it
wouldn't
be
a
bad
idea
to
have
staff
on
involved
in
making
the
rule
book.
Not
all
communities
do
that
like
it
depends
on
how
much
you
want
to
separate
like
staff
and
council
from
the
design
of
it.
I
think
personally,
I
think
it's
better
if
we're
all
talking
together
earlier,
because
that's
kind
of
the
challenge,
but.
A
C
A
A
D
Okay,
if
that
looks
good,
we'll
go
forward
with
that
plan
and
then
the
next,
the
only
other
question
we've
had
today,
I
think
matt
lauren
might
have
some
more.
Are
we
wanted
to
schedule
tentatively
to
try
to
get
this
during
committee
kicked
off
by
the
end
of
the
month
and
then
we're
still
trying
to
get
that
list
of
cbos
from
the
city
manager,
discussion
and
we'd
like
permission
to
start
like
opening
the
call
and
recruiting
people?
If
that
sounds
all
good
to
you,.
F
E
E
D
Okay,
that
would
help
a
ton,
so
that's
all
that
we
had
for
today
also
one
like
last
question.
Just
to
make
sure
we're
reporting
properly
to
everyone
is
I'm
assuming
that
matt
orrin
is
the
pb
manager,
so
we're
checking
our
decisions
with
him
and
then,
if
there's
something
that
needs
to
get
surfaced
to
that
pb
committee
he'll,
raise
it
up,
pass
that.
So
let
us
know
if
that's
not
how
you
want
us
reporting.
A
B
A
A
A
E
E
C
No,
I
was
going
to
stay.
I
think
this
is
all
good
guidance.
I
don't
know
if
we
want
to
be
extremely
rigid,
let's
exclude
certain
people,
but
I
think
we
should
try
to
make
sure
that
all
these
groups
are
represented,
if
possible
and
and
by,
if
possible,
I
mean
if
they're
willing
right.
This
is
a
people
have
to
accept.
E
If
the
question
is,
do
we
reserve
two
seats
for
you
know
each?
You
know,
residents
of
each
ward
and
two
seats
for
people
of
color
and
two
seats
for
people
of
another
color.
I'm
not
sure
we
need
to
be
that
proscriptive,
but
if
we
do
it
right,
we
will
have
a
good
cross-section
of
representation.
I
think
that's
what
councilmember
burns
was
saying
as
well.
A
Well
then,
maybe
we'll
do
two
council
members
or
we'll
leave
it
open
in
case
mayor
bis
or
one
of
our
other
colleagues
wants
to
participate.
Okay
and
then
council
approves
rule
book.
I
think
there's
agreement
on
that.
I
think
we
have
our
outline
staff.
Is
there
anything
matthew
or
sarah
that,
as
far
as
or
professor
easter
day
in
deliberate
deliberation
works?
Is
there
anything
that
you
need
from
us
as
far
as
formulating
a
steering
committee?
If
we
accept
this
framework
here
as
presented.
D
No,
I
think
this
is
great,
so
our
next
steps
after
this
will
be
we'll
take
the
list
share
it
with
everyone
make
sure.
There's
we
have
everyone
that
you
want
us
to
be
contacting
and
then
start
outreaching
to
people
and
putting
up
the
open
call,
so
yeah
we're
really
excited
to
get
started.
I
should
have
said
also
thank
you
for
letting
us
contribute
to
this.
We're
super
excited
about
this
project.
A
Great
last
update,
maybe
matt
you
if
you
know
where
this
is
in
the
pipeline,
so
council
approved
at
our
last
meeting
a
little
over
a
week
ago,
going
on
two
weeks
ago,
funding
for
positions
for
two
new
staff
positions,
one
full-time
one
part-time
do
you
know,
has
that
been?
Do
you
know
where
we,
where
we
are
in
that
process.
