No description was provided for this meeting.
If this is YOUR meeting, an easy way to fix this is to add a description to your video, wherever mtngs.io found it (probably YouTube).
A
A
We
should
be
good
to
go
now
and
the
posting
was
on
the
city
website
posted
on
November,
18th,
I,
believe
application
deadlines
for
the
vacancy
was
December
14th,
and
then
the
vacancy
committee
conducted
interviews,
January,
5th
and
6th.
Those
interviews
were
also
posted
to
the
city
website
and
the
vacancy
committee
is
pleased
to
recommend
Chris
Payne's
sharp
to
fill
the
fifth
board
seat
vacated
by
my
election
in
November
and
I
took
office.
Officially
on
December
8th,
so
I
will
ask
I.
A
B
Thank
you
mayor,
I'll,
just
add
my
appreciation
that
we
did
see
such
a
strong
application
pool
from
the
current
fifth
board
and
very
happy
to
have
participated
in
making
this
recommendation.
So
I
was
thinking.
C
A
C
A
Chris,
if
you
would
raise
your
right
hand,
you
solemnly
swear
to
support
the
Constitution
of
the
United
States
and
the
constitution
of
the
state
of
New
York,
and
that
you
will
Faithfully
discharge
the
duties
of
the
position
of
older
person
to
the
best
of
your
ability.
I
do.
Thank
you.
Congratulations!
Thank
you.

Now
I
will
now
I
will
ask
council's
permission
to
add
I
will
call
to
order
I'm,
sorry
for
the
February
1st
meeting
of
common
Council
and
I
will
ask
council's
permission
to
add
to
the
agenda
a
special
order
of
business,
and
that
is
the
presentation
of
the
J
Diane
Sam's
award
and
I
understand
that
the
award
recipient
this
evening
is
here
and
that
the

will
be
read
by
my
colleague.

The
wonderful
member
of
our
community,
who
has
contributed
so
very
much
and
this
award
is
so
well
well
deserved
and,
as
you
know,
and
as
members
of
the
public
can
lead
on

you
are
joining
distinguished
list
of

gone

A
wonderful
member
of
our
community,
but
many
of
us
remember
as
a
neighbor,
a
friend
a
representative
of
our
government.
A
Well,
it
is
really
hard

something
that
is

uplifting

Thank
you.

A
All
right,
I
believe
I
jumped
over
the
agenda
review
because
I
had
an
addition
to
the
agenda,
but
do
any
of
my
colleagues
have
other
additions
or
deletions
from
tonight?.
A
Seeing
none,
we
will
move
to
visions
and
hearings
of
persons
before
counsel
public
comment.
I
do
have
cards,
I
hope
in
the
order
in
which
they
were
collected.
We
have
a
few
members
who
signed
up
to
speak
virtually,
although
I
think
one
of
the
individuals
is
here
so
I'll
check
as
we
go.
A
So
when
I
call
your
name.
If
you
would
please
come
up
to
the
table,
if
you
make
sure
the
green
button
is
on,
you
will
be
heard
and
you'll
be
recorded,
and
let
me
remind
speakers
that

Good
evening
my

Imagine
there's
going
to
be

about

I
think
you
could
be
noted.
H
Street,
despite
assurances
made
by
conference
County
Talent
wage
director
Barbara
Beckstrom,
it
appeared
certain
that
medical
waste
and
the
form
of
syringes
were
dumped
on
the
thinning
floor
of
the
facility
was
about
the
conference

College
facility

H
This
is
not
a
viable
method
for
many
future
sites.
I
believe
that
future
between
us,
we
need
professionals
trained
and
Remediation
sites
like
the
ones
and
the
photos
I
sent
you
all.
The
reading
from
these
sections
should
be
treated
as
annual
waste.
These
are
places
where

to

Thank
you,
and
with
apologies
before
we
turn
to
other
public
comments.
It
has
often
been
the
case
when
the
Jade
Ian
Sam's
award
is
presented.
A
A
And
I
appreciate
your
time
offered.
My
name
is
Jason
Trumbull
and
I'm.
The
proud
principal
of
riotica
high
school
and
I've
known
this
beautiful
person
being
out
for
over
30
years
and
I
wanted
to
say
that
you're.
A
I
A
A
A
A
And
thank
you
to
the
committee
who
did
the
work
on
getting
nominations
and
making
this
incredible
selection

When
I
think
of
that
I've
always
pictured
a
thriving
City
and
by
the
population
gain
a
good
labor,
City
I
was
wrong.
I
would
never
thought.
Ithaca
would
have
a
history
of
letting
collective
bargaining
agreements
expired.
Time
and
time
again-
and
here
we
are-
the
ipffa
has
been
without
a
contract
since
2020,
unacceptable

L
L
M
Good
evening
my
name
is
Mary
arceo
and
I
am
a
member
of
the
ibda
and
the
secretary
and
our
executive
board
on
November,
2nd
2022
by
City.
Labor
unions
came
together
to
express
their
frustrations
with
how
we've
been
treated
by
the
city
of
Ithaca.
This
came
to
be
from
years
of
feeling
ignored,
undervalued
and
underpaid
by
City
Administration,
and
we
are
tirelessly
and
oddly
served.
First
off.
M
I
would
like
to
thank
the
members
of
the
council
who
recognize
and
have
made
efforts
to
resolve
the
prevalent
obvious
issues
of
mistreatment
of
laborers
in
the
city,
but
I'd
be
remiss
to
say
that
I
am
disappointed
in
members
of
City
Administration,
who
ignoticed
and
tried
those
who
vote
was
the
tone
of
all
speakers
Pleasant
and
calm.
No,
however,
if
you
felt
neglected
in
unheard
for
years,
how
did
you
react?
M
After
all,
these
unions
have
tried
to
play
nice
and
negotiate
fairly
many
times
in
the
past.
This
method
of
communication
is
clearly
not
working
to
call
the
people
who
plow
the
streets
in
prison
conditions,
clean
your
toilets,
respond
to
emergencies
and
build
your
office
furniture
an
angry
mob
and
helps
you
inspectable
through
the
lack
of
empathy
and
compassion
and
seeing
all
the
administration.
M
M
City
employees
are
sick
of
hearing.
The
city
has
no
money
for
wage
increases.
Let's
not
forget
the
council
just
passed
a
motion
to
spend
60
thousand
dollars
for
a
second
attempt
at
a
police
shooter.
Meanwhile,
qualified
candidates
are
left
on
the
table.
Additionally.
The
city
has
spent
approximately
250
000
on
the
ongoing
discipline
disciplinary
during
a
PDA
member
Sarah
Cruz
members
of
the
council
employee,
further
to
even
treats
me
to
factory
new
employees
that
are
lately
are
dispensable.
We
are
not.
M
A
I'll
just
point
out
that,
if
you
have
five
speakers,
then
you
actually
have
seven
minutes
nothing.
Three
minute
plan
and
Scott
you'll
make
that
adjustment.
Thank
you.
N
Thank
you,
I'm,
going
to
be
using
the
time
of
my
members
behind
me.
My
name
is
Tom
kinsella,
president
of
the
Ithaca
PBA,
and
a
member
of
the
Ithaca
Public
workers
Coalition,
we're
here
tonight
because,
as
the
governing
body
and
administration,
the
message
we've
gotten
from
you
is
that
you
don't
care.
N
We
know
that
some
of
you
individually
care
deeply
and
are
being
stonewalled
for
making
progress
by
the
City
attorney
and
the
mayor.
However,
as
the
overall
governing
body
of
elected
officials
and
policy
makers,
it
appears
to
us
that
the
common
council
is
either
unable
or
unwilling
to
make
progress
for
workers
in
the
city
of
Ithaca
and
our
community.
Since
2020
dpw's
workers
have
been
without
a
contract
or
raises
they're
down
almost
30
positions
in
suffering
and
Route
issues.
N
N
B
N
It's
no
secret
ipd
still
cannot
recruit
and
retain
a
Patrol
Division
that
should
be
stabbed
with
at
least
45
officers
has
been
relegated
to
23.
2011
ipd
Staffing
was
at
71
sport
members.
Currently
we're
at
44
swore
members
to
police,
a
city
of
30
000
Plus
between
now
and
2026.
We
expect
at
least
another
13
retirements
from
the
Ithaca
Police
Department.
You
know
all
of
this,
though
everyone
knows
this:
the
council,
the
mayor,
HR,
the
chief
of
staff,
all
the
unions
have
told
you
time
and
time
again
how
bad
this
is
It's
been
90
days.
N
What
have
you
done?
The
public
workers
still
cannot
effectively
and
safely
do
our
jobs
in
the
city.
You've
stressed
us
all
to
the
max:
it's
impacted
our
health,
our
families
and
the
personal
lives
of
every
worker
standing
behind
me
tonight.
It's
also
impacting
our
community
Ithaca
is
becoming
increasingly
unsafe,
as
Public
Safety
Services
continue
to
deteriorate,
namely
police
and
fire
on
fire.
N
Why
do
you
keep
asking
us?
What
can
we
do
to
fix
this?
When
we
keep
telling
you,
we
want
fair
and
respectful
treatment,
we
want
competitive
wages
and
benefits,
and
we
want
to
be
able
to
perform
the
jobs
that
we
were
hired
to
do
so.
Our
community
can
Thrive.
When
you
tell
us
specifically
the
PBA
that
we
have
an
emergency
and
we
realize
that
ipd
is
in
crisis.
What
can
we
do
to
fix
this?
N
A
long-term
collective
bargaining
agreement
would
help
stabilize
the
workforce
and
show
potential
applicants
that
the
city
cares
about
its
police
officers
and
is
investing
in
the
workforce.
It
could
make
us
competitive
again.
I've
pleaded
with
you
to
join
the
PBA
in
a
statement
of
partnership
and
collaboration,
to
dispel
the
rumors
around
reimagining
to
affirm
our
commitment
to
reimagining
Public
Safety
reforms
that
make
sense
and
to
send
a
signal
to
current
and
future
police
officers.
That
Ithaca
supports
its
law
enforcement
and
at
the
Ithaca
Police
Department
isn't
going
anywhere.
N
N
N
The
City
attorney
and
the
mayor
want
to
strip
Sarah
Cruz
with
her
pension
and
a
post-employment
health
care
benefits.
They
are
contractually
bound
to
provide
because
she
is
different
and
because
she
stood
up
for
what
she
believes
in
Sarah
Cruz
sought
aggressive
change.
She
objected
but
continued
to
do
her
work
until
she
was
pushed
to
the
point
of
not
being
able
to
tolerate
the
working
environment
anymore.
N
The
City
attorney
has
built
a
case
against
her
one
of
the
only
disciplinary
cases
to
be
litigated
by
outside
counsel
and
in
doing
so
has
already
spent
approximately
250
000
of
taxpayer
money
after
several
arbitration
sessions.
The
arbitrator
in
the
mayor
in
the
matter
has
strongly
recommended
to
both
parties
that
we
sit
down
and
begin
settlement.
Discussions
is
also
signaled
to
both
parties.
He
is
not
going
to
be
terminating
Sarah
Cruz.
N
On
the
night
before
the
first
conference,
the
City
attorney
made
his
intentions
clear
and
indicated
that
the
only
way
a
settlement
would
be
briefs
is
if
Sarah
Cruz
agreed
to
a
near-term
resignation
stripping
her
of
her
pension
and
post-employment
health
care.
We've
since
learned
that
the
city
is
citing
economic
and
policy
reasons
for
their
stance.
In
this
case,
there
are
several
more
hearing
dates
to
be
conducted,
and
we
estimate
that,
when
it's
all
said
and
done,
the
city
will
expend
at
least
another
quarter
million
dollars
prior
to
Sarah
objecting
to
the
search
policies.
N
She
had
no
significant
performance
or
disciplinary
issues.
So
how
did
we
get
here?
The
answer
is
sitting
in
the
corner
of
the
room.
The
City
attorney
wants
to
send
a
message
to
Sarah
Cruz
to
workers
who
stand
up
for
what
they
believe
in
and
to
the
unions
that
represent
them.
The
message
is
this:
how
dare
you
question
the
city
of
Ithaca?
How
dare
you
stand
up
for
what
you
believe
in
or
bring
litigation
against
the
city
to
anyone
who
tries
to
sue
the
city
and
who
questions
City
policies?
N
For
whatever
reason,
the
message
is:
this
We
will
bury
you
in
litigation,
debt
and
strip
you
of
your
pension
and
benefits.
The
message
is
no
matter
who
you
are
or
what
you
represent.
We
will
smash
them
into
the
ground
and
will
never
let
you
back
up.
We
will
destroy
you,
your
reputation,
your
finances
and
in
the
process.
We
will
also
lead
the
union
representing
you
of
its
funds,
sending
both
you
and
your
labor
organization
into
Financial
ruin.
This
is
not
only
cruel.
It's
union
busting
who's
running
the
city.
N
What
oversight
is
there
on
the
money
being
expended
in
this
case?
Stop
talking
about
Band-Aid,
fixes
and
baby
steps
to
solve
these
problems?
We're
past
that
we're
past
that
right.
It's
insulting,
counsel,
stop
letting
the
City
attorney
and
the
mayor
continue
to
destroy
our
community
and
dictate
policy
to
you.
Thank
you,
Tommy.
You
are
the
elected
governing
body
and
you
can
control
policy.
That's
right!
Thank
you.
You.
A
And
once
again,
speakers
will
have
three
minutes
and
I
ask
for
some
I
asked
the
public
not
to
interrupt
speakers
during
their
time.
Thank
you.
J
Well,
I
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
come
speak.
My
name
is
Kevin
Eisen
I'm,
the
field
director
for
the
New
York
State.
Thank
you,
hello
and
Kevin.
I
just
went
out
the
deal
director
of
the
New
York
State
AFL-CIO.
To
give
you
a
little
what
that
means.
I
cover
the
entire
state
from
Buffalo
to
Long
Island
with
two
and
a
half
million
members
and
I
have
never
seen
all
five
unions
at
a
at
a
city
come
together
like
they
have
here
and
that's
why
we're
here,
they've
inspired
us.
J
They
put
together
the
Coalition
of
public
workers
and
the
courage
to
demand
the
dignity
and
respect
from
the
city
of
Ithaca,
the
same
level
of
respect
that
they
show
the
residents
they
serve
every
day.
Almost
a
year
ago,
these
workers
came
to
us
to
ask
for
help
each
describing
a
situation
in
the
city
where
they
felt,
with
their
voices,
weren't
being
heard
that
their
membership
was
being
disrespected
at
the
bargaining
table
and
during
normal
Labor
Management
interactions.
J
We
can
proudly
declare
that
if
the
workers
are
union
strong-
and
we
implore
the
elected
officials
listening
to
worker
statements
today,
to
create
real
change
in
the
relationship
with
your
workers,
they
are
ready
to
be
willing
to
Partners
to
make
this
city
of
a
better
place
for
residents,
and
workers
tonight
will
be
an
inspiring
night.
But
it's
not
the
end.
We
will
not
stop
here.
We
will
not
rest.
We
will
not
waver
until
the
workers
of
the
city
have
built
their
voice
or
tell
you
the
background.
The
rest
of
my
time.
Thank.
H
D
A
K
L
I
K
Am
almost
making
the
same
amount
of
money
and
my
part-time
job?
That
is
not
a
statement
and
retirement
I
have
been
in
buildings
where
people
appreciate
my
work,
they
want
me
in
the
building.
You
know
I
mean
I've
gotten
a
lot
of
respect
from
Ithaca
Police
Department
I've,
been
in
the
building.
I've
cleaned
I've
watched
a
lot
of
stuff
I've
been
watched,
the
world
a
lot
with
police
officers.
A
K
M
D
K
I,
wouldn't
be
so
tired
that
I
could
even
get
better
to
this
day,
and
this
is
their
position
I'm
in
so
and
I.
Just
you
know,
without
us
contact
being
settled
or
an
increase
of
money,
that's
keeping
up
with
the
living
wage.
You
know
basically
I
go
to
work
and
for
an
hour's
worth
of
work.
I'm
gonna
buy
a
dozen
half
eggs.
K
You
know,
and
other
places
are
actually
the
Jackson
courthouse.
A
A
Ithaca
has
a
good
reputation
as
one
of
the
most
Progressive
towns
in
the
Northeast,
but
it
has
unfold
deservedly
gained
an
equally
negative
reputation
for
its
egregious
treatment
of
its
public
workers.
Statewide
organized
they
organize
labor.
It's
taking
notice
of
the
city
of
ithaca's
treatment
of
its
public
workers,
particularly
of
those
represented
by
the
Ithaca
Police
benevolence,
Association,
the
ethical,
professional,
firefighters,
Association,
getting
the
executive
Association
and
the
cfda
local
1000,
DPW
unit
and
administrative
unit.
A
A
P
Reached
out
after
Labor's,
first
appearance
at
the
common
council
meeting
in
November,
but
here
we
are
again
to
address
the
labor
issue
of
unfair
contract
negotiations,
which
have
not
substantially
changed
since
we
came
here
three
months
ago,
City
administration's
answer
to
the
problem
is
to
switch
out
one
lawyer
for
another.
All
the
labor
groups
that
had
expired
contracts
came
to
the
December
meeting.
To
tell
you
that
swapping
out
lawyers
was
not
something
that
we
felt
would
address
would
fully
address
our
concerns.
P
A
P
P
D
A
Individually,
okay,
so
you
will
have
three
minutes
tests,
yeah.
K
Q
They
noticed
me
approached
so
I
thought
this
is
my
truck
and
I'm
about
to
leave
all
three
looked
at
me
dismissively
and
continued
on
with
their
conversation
and
waited
a
few
seconds
and
said:
we've
moved
my
truck
I'm
trying
to
leave.
They
thought
the
conversation
and
the
man
closed
the
community
flat,
my
truck
while
starting
to
walk
away
all
the
while
calling
me
a
stupid
kind.
Q
He'd
walk
next
to
the
truck
for
a
second
while
smiling
and
left
I
loved,
a
big
breath
that
I
didn't
know.
I
was
holding
quickly
got
in
locked
the
doors
and
drove
home,
but
when
I
arrived
to
him,
I
was
grounding
the
passenger
side
of
the
truck
and
saw
the
obsession
on
my
brand
new
truck
that
I
had
treated
myself
for
being
hired
was
Keen.
P
Q
I
did
report
the
innocent
the
incident
and
the
city's
solution
was
to
get
everyone
a
whistle
since
that
first
exposure,
I
driven
into
work
with
people
sleeping
on
old
mattresses
and
makeshift
beds
in
the
strip
of
lawn
between
State
Street,
and
our
parking
lot
witnessed
a
campfire
made
in
that
same
Circle
along
the
IFD
was
called
to
extinguish
later
I've
seen
multiple
people
urinating
and
defecating
in
various
locations
around
the
perimeter
of
the
parking
lot.
We
have
seen
people
walking
through
the
lot
checking
our
vehicle
door
handles.
We.
Q
Except
on
broken
glass
from
Smash
liquor
bottles
and
had
to
walk
over
blood
stains
from
stabbings
and
shootings
in
our
parking
lot.
This
is
the
same
parking
lot,
but
my
nine-month-old
daughter
is
passed
between
me
and
my
husband
during
our
ship
changes.
Could
you
feel
okay
about
walking
to
your
car
in
this
conditions?
How
about
having
your
loved
ones
in
this
environment?
Q
A
A
H
Anti-Union
he
tried
to
give
himself
a
state
pension.
You
can
Google
that
the
city
hired
him
for
the
ipd
Sarah
Cruz
termination,
which
I
worked
in
college
town
for
eight
years
and
worked
with
her
many
times
and
never
had
a
negative
interaction
and
always
liked
Skinner.
But
she
was
the
most
helpful
and

Hawaii
every
year.

H

A

H
H
Good
evening
Madam
mayor
and
Council
persons,
friends
co-workers,
my
name
is
Tom
Basher
I'm,
an
assistant
chief
of
the
fire
department,
I'm,
not
much
of
a
talker,
so
I'll
try
and
get
as
quick
as
I
can,
for
you,
I
think
my
glasses
are
sorry.
I'm
going
to
be
retiring
this
month
after
24
years
of
serving
and
giving
to
the
Ithaca
Community
retirement
after
20
years
is
in
an
arbitrary
number,
it's
20
years
for
a
reason.
What
we
do
out.
There
is
different.
What
we
do
out.
H
There
is
different
from
what
you
guys
have
to
experience
and
I
got.
To
be
honest,
our
families
have
to
adapt
and
accommodate
to
our
profession
as
well.
This
job
has
taken
especially
hard
toll
on
us
and
Them,
the
things
that
we
have
to
see
and
do
they
don't
go
away.
They
don't
linger,
they
accumulate
and
then
they
Compound
on
us.
Ptsd
is
a
real
thing,
and
many
of
you
saw
the
anguish
on
faces
of
fellow
players
during
a
football
game,
not
that
long
ago.
H
H
H
The
amount
of
firefighters
that
we
have
worked
with
here
in
Ithaca
that
have
gotten
cancer
would
blow
you
away
they've
signed
on
knowing
that
if
we
did
our
jobs
Faithfully
that
at
the
end,
the
statement
provided
us
with
a
little
pension
and
you
the
city
would
provide
us
with
Quality
Health
Care
that
we
will
need,
because
the
toll
this
job
takes
us
that
we
did
for
you,
I've
been
to
some
of
your
houses.
I've
taken
care
of
some
of
your
family
members.
We've
done
this,
for
you.
H
You've
lived
under
a
blanket
of
comfort
and
protection
that
all
of
these
city
workers
provided
and
now
you
want
to
change
the
rules
and
affect
the
very
People
Who,
provided
it
as
I.
Look
back
on
a
quarter,
Century
they'll,
giving
it
a
city,
I
have
good
memories
and
I
got
some
tough
ones
too.
Man
I
do
look
forward
to
retirement
and
I
do
wish
all
of
you.
Well,
we
know
many
of
the
issues
we
spoke
about
tonight.
They
were
not
all
under
your
wash
but
going
forward.
C
C
K
K
G
K
Diversity
and
cruise
ship
inclusion,
City
statements
that
are
the
subtitle
of
the
dungeons,
says
inclusivity
by
diversity,
or
is
it
diversity
by
inclusivity?
The
person
will
make
some
sense.
The
second
one
I
think
I
proposely
change
it
so
that
we
can
the
only
way
we
can
have
a
diverse
Community
or
a
community
that
respects
diversity
to
higher
city
workers
that
are
diverse
and
to
have
a
union
that
visit
women
and
people
of
color
to
speak
and
the
front
lines
is
a
sign
of
an
unhealthy
Union
and
I
would
like
everybody
to
study
the
union.
K
A
A
A
A
E
The
project
only
paid
68
000
in.
A
A
R
Yeah
so
good
evening,
it's
a
real
pleasure
to
be
here
and
to
kind
of
learn.
What's
going
on
in
the
city
of
Ithaca
right
now,
so
I
was
asked
by
the
leaders
of
the
Coalition
of
City
unions
to
support
them
I'm,
the
director
of
something
called
the
ilr
lab,
and
we
do
engage
research
and
and
learning
in
the
community,
and
so
this
has
become
one
of
the
projects.
R
I'm
working
on
and
I
mean
one
of
the
things
we're
going
to
do
to
shine
light
on
the
situation
and
to
kind
of
help
ourselves
understand.
What's
going
on
is
in
March
there
will
be
a
public
meeting
at
the
ilr
school,
where
we're
kind
of
going
to
lift
up
the
voices
of
workers.
So
you
can
all
kind
of
expect
invitation
to
that.
R
Also,
my
colleagues
who
so
there's
a
there's,
a
proposal
from
the
unions
to
D
lawyer,
the
collective
bargaining
process
and
my
colleagues
got
a
train
management.
Folks
in
collective
bargaining
have
agreed
to
kind
of
volunteer
their
services
to
train
administrators
in
the
city
of
Ithaca.
R
Should
they
agree
to
the
de-lawyering
proposal
of
the
Union
of
coalitions,
so
I've
sent
an
email
to
Mayor
Lewis
about
this,
and
so
yeah
I
just
wanted
you
all
to
know
that
that
offers
on
the
table
and
yeah
wish
you
all
the
best
and
finding
a
resolution
to
this
this
situation
thanks.
Thank
you.
A
K
A
Now
you're
welcome
to
join
sit
at
the
speakers
table
and
the
green
light
is
on
so
you
will
have
three
minutes
to
address
it.
I
don't
believe.
I
In
Council,
although
it
doesn't
play
this
before
I
went
to
you
guys,
my
community
I
was
seriously
even
trouble.
The
organization
advocated
for
me,
my
name,
is
Ramon.
Jackson
I
was
out
on
the
Wayside
in
New
York
I'm,
here
to
express
my
support
for
The
Unbroken
promises
initiative,
thereby
Jordan
Clements
of
Death
Moon
Rashi,
the
upis
of
organization,
which
is
in
in
children's
hope
for
a
better
life,
though,
as
for
the
city,
so
strongly
considered
the
foreign,
and
it
was
so
importantly
in
my
community
and
osm.
Thank
you.
The
rest
of
my
time.
C
F
It
seems
that
you
have
so
clearly
forgotten
the
cries
which
appeared
to
have
been
hurt
by
you
three
years
ago,
when
the
streets
of
Ithaca
were
awoken
to
the
discomforts
and
ills
he'd
Fallen,
the
unheard
and
underserved
voices
that
you
drove
such
deprecation
for,
but
how
easily
you
have
to
clearly
forgotten
your
ill
decisions
could
continue
to
leave
the
community
of
shoveling
one
unjustified
when
we
patch
ourselves
on
a
backboard
job.
Well
done.
F
You
have
not
proven
yourself
to
the
other
than
selfish
and
capable
of
making
decisions
outside
of
those
that
allow
the
continued
preservation
of
an
elitist
system
whose
only
real
Accolade
is
ensuring
that
shackles
are
never
broken
and
the
chain
of
never
undone.
This,
along
with
many
other
decisions
that
you
refuse
to
change,
have
only
succeeded
in
the
courage
stronghold
on
the
impacts
we
are
currently
faced
with.
But
please
tell
me:
what
will
what
will
come
to
be?
F
D

C
P
To
Jordan
and
Yasmine
I've
been
a
volunteer
at
epis,
it
was
founded
in
the
summer
of
2020
and
so
I've
had
the
unique
experience
of
watching
kind
of
from
the
sidelines
or
the
CD
line,
while
the
city
has
approached
Jasmine
and
argasmine
and
Jordan,
which
offered
support
and
wanting
to
to
write.
The
wrongs
in
the
city
has
committed
against
the
disenfranchised
communities
on
the
Left,
End
and
I've.
Seen
for
the
past
nearly
three
years.
A
P
Stung
to
death
by
public
leave
and
in
action
by
the
people
who
are
meant
to
represent
you.
It
is
the
performative
actions
of
about.
A
The
Silence
at
the
beginning
of
the
meetings
and
awards,
given
that
you
can

yourself
on.
K
P
S
Literature
2023
Happy,
New
Year,
so
it's
the
third
year.
S
My
name
is
Jordan
Clements,
founder
of
unbroken
and
promise
initiative
I'm
here
to
her
to
speak
on
the
fact
that
we
have
a
community
that
we've
been
advocating
for
for
the
past
three
years
and
that
appeared
to
have
support
from
the
city
and
I
worked
with
the
city
to
try
to
go
after
resources
to
bring
additional
resources
to
the
city
to
make
up
for
the
lack
of
budget
that
we
have
locally
here,
and
we
are
still
waiting
on
a
fifty
thousand
dollars
that
was
approved
by
your
Council
I,
believe
in
2022
for
2022
budget
and
so
I'm
here,
first
and
foremost,
to
ask
if
there's
a
there's,
someone
on
the
council
or
someone
within
city
government
that
could
contact
our
organization
so
that
we
could
retain
those
funds
as
soon
as
possible.
S
The
other
thing
I
want
to
discuss
is
there's
a
lot
of
monies
out
there,
and
the
MPI
will
be
going
after
more
funding
for
underserved,
meaning
black
and
brown.
Disadvantaged
communities
and
I
would
really
like
it
is
UPI
in
the
city
could
revisit
a
honest
and
truly
strategic
partnership
to
retain
These
funds
out
there.
S
I
am
aware,
after
getting
in
these
spaces,
that
people
are
not
really
accustomed
to
going
after
these
type
of
funds
and
I
believe
that
you
know
Jasmine
Rasheed,
along
with
the
community
members
that
we've
mentored
and
nurtured
and
cultivated
in
this
space,
who
are
ready
to
go
after
resources
for
themselves
and
for
our
communities,
they're
ready
to
be
active
and
so
I
would
really
like
to
I
would
really
like
it.
S
If
they
say
you
can
utilize
its
resources
like
savante
and
I
did
in
2020
2021,
so
2022,
where
you
were
on
that
the
main
acting
mayor
was
on
the
dri
I,
really
appreciate
if
we
could
get
getting
together
and
get
it
organized
because
this
window,
his
history,
showed
that
this
window
for
disadvantaging
black
and
brown
folks
will
not
stay
open
long.
S
So
I
don't
come
here
to
point
any
fingers.
I
come
here.
Embrace
I'm
focused
on
Solutions
and
strategic
planning
and
going
out
there
and
receiving
the
resources
for
my
community.
That
has
been
so
long
been
neglected.
Last
but
not
least,
people
are
doing
my
time.
The
conditions
in
West
Village
is
still
in
violation
of
housing.
S
E
A
Good
evening,
thank
you
all
for
being
here.
It's
at
the
eye
opening
to
search
for
this
meeting
per
minute.
I
come
here
as
a
representative
about
13,
a
floral
lab
and
Five
Mile
Drive,
which
we've
been
meeting
for
about
two
years.
We
have
submitted
a
500
signatures
on
a
petition
about
the
conditions
of
that
roadway
and
the
dangerous
conditions
that
it
poses
to
all
of
the
music
and
those
of
us
who
live
near
it.
A
Really
terrifying
for
us
to
make
I
almost
got
killed
from
the
end
of
my
driveway
on
the
bicycle:
I
walk
on
that
roadway
daily
and
it
doesn't
terrifying.
The
trucks
are
not
growing
and
I
saw
yesterday.
I
thought
pulling
another
truck
one
of
those
double
things
with
the
metal
quality
Kingdom.
It
was
just
ginormous,
I
mean
there's
no
way,
I,
don't
know
how
it
turned
on
to
the
road
when
I'm
trying
to
turn
over
the
life.
So
it's
frequently.
K
A
Can't
turn
that
point
they're
two
huge
they're
too
bad
they're
buying
two
cats.
So
we
have
a
petition.
We
have
500
signatures
with
four
people.
Obviously
there
aren't
that
many
people
who
live
on
the
road
so,
but
we
met
with
Eddie
Littles
and
Helen
officials
earlier
in
January,
another
very,
very
hardened
by
their
concern.
The
one
thing
that
they
ask
that
we
do
is
to
come
to
this
meeting
and
request
to
cancel
your
support:
the
Declassified
relative
humans
and
Cracker
Barrel
right
now.
A
A
A
A
Well,
okay,
we're
not
going
to
engage
back
and
forth,
but
we
will,
in
response
from
constant,
be
able
to
offer
abundance.
Well.
I,
live
and
I
live
on.
I
am
and
I
see
the
fires
that
the
people
across
the
woods
across
the
way
are
doing
and
I
smell
what
it
is
that
they're
burning,
it's
not
as
good
that
I
want
into
my
lungs
I,
don't
I
think
it's
very
dangerous
place
and
thank
you
I
appreciate
your
listening.
Thank
you
so
much.
Thank
you.
Next.
C
C
A
Q
In
the
city,
some
of
you
know
well
I've
struggled
with.
A
Housing
instability
for
a
really
long
time,
so
this
is
in
the
U.S
near
and
dear.
In
my
heart,
we
are
still
in
the
midst
of
a
global
pandemic,
which
is
scheduled
to
end
of
May.
Somehow,
and
really
what
covet
has
shown
more
than
anything
else
is
the
importance
of
home
the
importance
of
family,
the
importance
of
community
you
know
without
without
that,
your
life
is
completely
destabilized.
Q
I
would
like
to
express
some
very
concerning
things.
I've
I've
witnessed
personally.
Q
Q
We're
really
in
a
state
of
everybody.
The
vast
majority
of
tenants
who
are
being
evicted
are
low-income.
Black
and
brown
at
West
Village
right
on
the
West
End.
Q
Of
families
were
at
risk
of
hypnosis
in
theory
if
it
has
a
regular
Council
program
and
funds,
one
and
a
half
attorneys
to
vote
for
them
and
it's
important.
But
the
vast
majority
of
these
tenants
at
West
Village
and
the
vast
majority
of
tenants
you
know
at
other
passing
complexes-
did
not
have
the
benefit
of
council.
Q
Court
on
Thursdays,
the
main
eviction
attorney,
uses
the
one
conference
room
on
the
third
floor
as
her
office.
Essentially,
she
calls
people
in
right.
These
tenants
are
lined
up
sat
around
in
this
sort
of
lobby
area
outside
the
courtroom.
Just
waiting
to
be
called
in.
They
do
not
have
attorneys,
they
are
important
to
negotiate
with
professional
negotiators.
You
know
an
eventual
attorney
who's,
a
professional
negotiator.
They
are
at
a
disadvantage,
their
risk
of
homelessness
and
I.
Don't.
Q
A
C
T
Yes,
thank
you
for
letting
me
speak
remotely.
T
All
right,
thank
you
mostly
want
to
say
thank
you
to
the
other
Union
Representatives
who
have
spoken
before
me.
I'll,
be
very
brief.
Thank
you.
Common
council
members.
The
moment
of
silence
mayor
for
Tyree
Nichols
was
very
very
seldom
touching.
The
Lifetime
Achievement
Award
as
well,
and
the
speakers
front
and
broken
promise
initiative
was
quite
touching.
T
I
just
want
to
say
the
negotiating
team
for
the
executive.
Association
has
met
one
time
in
three
months,
so
we
can
do
better,
trying
to
move
any
city
project
or
any
personal
project
in
your
house
as
you're
in
a
in
a
cup.
My
couple,
my
wife
or
a
partner,
be
very
mad
at
me.
If
it
took
three
months
to
get
the
car
fixed
or
or
anything
so
maybe
we
can
make
a
mandate
to
negotiating
team
to
meet
weekly
show
that
it's
it's
a
priority
for
the
city
making
once
a
month.
T
Meetings
is
not
really
a
good
faith
effort,
so
it
would
be
great
to
try
to
meet.
Maybe
weekly
have
weekly
Communications
and
then
again
it's
of
course
you
get
what
you
pay
for.
We
all
want
good
quality
products,
good
quality
employees,
to
give
services
to
the
people,
there's
a
lot
of
needs
in
the
city
who
have
very
hard
jobs
and
I
implore.
T
You
and
thank
you
all
and
I,
really
like
working
projects
with
you
guys
so
I
think
I
covered
a
few
topics
there,
so
I
exceed
my
time
to
the
rest
of
the
unions.
Thank
you.
A
A
Okay,
okay,
thank
you.
I
will
turn
to
my
colleagues
for
responses,
but
I
will
recognize
myself
first,
because
I
think
it's
important
to
provide
an
update
to
members
of
the
Republic
and
our
union
members
who
are
here
first
I
wanted
to
thank
everyone
for
coming
tonight
and
for
speaking,
we
do
value
your
voices
and
we
do
listen
and
in
fact,
listening
to
staff.
A
Over
the
months
recent
months,
Council
has
taken
very
specific
steps
to
address
the
needs
that
have
been
articulated
by
staff,
and
these
are
ugly,
not
Band-Aid
measures
but
concrete
measures.
So,
for
example,
our
negotiating
team
is
led
by
an
experienced
negotiator
that
individual
happens
to
be
a
lawyer,
but
that
person
does
have
experience
in
part.
We
was.
He
was
retained
because
of
his
lengthy
and
diverse,
quite
diverse
experience
in
New
York
public
sector
Labor
Relations.
We
have
added
the
chief
of
staff
to
our
negotiating
team,
so
we
have
a
new
lead
negotiator.
A
A
A
E
First
I'd
like
to
just
say
that
thank
you
for
taking
a
moment
of
silence
with
sorry
Nichols
well
deserved.
D
E
I
also
want
to
be
really
thankful
for
being
able
to
be
here
tonight
or
watching
on
in
the
Diane
Sims
award.
It
means
so
much
to
me
to
be
here.
Of
course,
Diane
Sands
is
someone
who
who
really
inspired
me
and
kind
of
pushed
me
in
this
direction
and
when
she
did
I
didn't
know
what
I
was
doing.
She
took
me
to
some
campaign
thing
and
I'm,
like
I
felt,
so
it
was
many
years
ago
and
I
really
felt.
E
F
E
Often,
bringing
him
pool
making
sure
he's
all
right,
so
it's
unintended
to
both
of
them,
oh
now,
I'll
get
to
I,
was
very,
very
hurt
to
hear
someone
speak
of
George,
Floyd
and
Tyree
Nichols
in
a
way
which
it
once
again
degraded
them
right.
That
doesn't
feel
good.
This
is
this
is,
and
it's
not
just
when
you
talk
about
George
Floyd.
If
you
talk
about
Tyree
Nichols
you're
talking
about
a
whole
race
of
people,
it
hurts
not
just
his
family.
E
Hurts
and
if
people
think,
as
black
people
we're
used
to
being
hurt,
that's
not
the
case.
It
hurts
every
time.
I
wanted
to
say
thank
you
to
all
the
speakers
today
and
I.
Don't
know
if
this
sound
harsh
but
I
wanted
to
say
Welcome
to
our
world.
E
E
And
so
I
identify
what
I
do
have
to
say.
I've
watched
some
members
on
this
Council
were
really
really
hard
and
it's
dedicated
to
making
sure
that
the
city
employees,
so
thank
you,
Cynthia,
George
or
all
y'all,
but
I,
know
how
hard
you
two
have
gone
to
to
scene.
I
need
to
have
all
you
are
I'm,
not
really
because
anyway,
we
have
worked
really
hard
and
it
feels
like
sitting.
K
E
That
the
work
that
we've
done
so
because
I'm
new
to
this
I'm,
not
known
I'm,
I'm,
kind
of
new
and
so
I'm
finally,
at
a
place
like
I,
know
my
role
or
how
we
do
what
we
do
on
this
Council
I'm,
starting
from
going
overboard.
But
anyway,
what
I
want
to
say
is
I'm
at
a
place
and
I
want
to
be
I
want
to
serve
you
all
very
well.
That's
all
city
employees
right
and
so
never
hesitate
to
send
me
an
email
stop
by.
Let's
have
a
conversation
and
tell
me
what
it
is.
E
We
don't
make
decisions
individually
right.
We
have
to
make
them
as
a
collective.
So
that's
really
important
for
people
to
know
that
sometimes
what
we
want
is
not
always
what
we
can
get
right
so
with
that
and
then
I
wanted
to
talk
and
just
think
you
Jordan
and
Yasmine,
and
for
continuing
to
come
to
us
and
let
us
know
how
important
your
work
is
and
just
thank
y'all
and
thank
y'all
and
thank
you
and
continue
doing
the
work
that
you
do.
E
A
A
So
if
that
is
your
card,
please
move
it
if
you're
blocking
the
parking
lot
since
I
have
the
floor,
I
guess
I'll
speak
I
also
want
to
thank
everybody
for
coming
out
to
speak.
A
We
started
our
evening
with
a
moment
of
silence.
I,
don't
think
it
was
performative.
A
Is
there
in
grief
and
anger
and
frustrated
them
and
sharing
that
and
sharing
these
laws
with
families
of
attorney
Nicholas
and
everyone
in
the
nation
I
think
is
important
and
yes,
this
is
the
process
of
waiting
and
it's
it's
a
process
of
continuing
to
stay.
K
Focused
on
protecting
our
community
working
with
our
officers.
K
Changing
the
process
in
recognizing
we
have
a
legacy
and
a
history
that.
A
We
have
to
speak
honestly
about
and
work
to
address
for
all
the
employees
who
came
tonight.
I
want
to.
A
K
A
A
Glacially
slow
for
you
and
and
I
recognize
that
the
difficulty
of
government
is,
it
does
move
racially
so.
A
K
Us
informed,
if
we're
not
making
adequate
process.
A
Progress
but
I
also
have
confidence
in
our
team.
A
A
This
isn't
easy
to
do
on
top
of
the
very
typical
work
that
you
also
and
so
I.
Thank
you
for
that.
It's
very
difficult
to
come
up
here
and
as
we
get
another
few
losses
like.
A
G
Open
Communications
to
work
on
recruitment
at
the
entry
level
for
a
lot
of
newest
professions
and
retention
at
the
senior
levels,
I'm
looking
very
too
much
forward
to
working
with
you
all
this
coming
year
through
the
electrons
and
to
rebuild
a
harmonious
Community
with
law
and
so
I
look
forward.
G
Thank
you,
I
was
a
good
friend
from
Memphis
Tennessee
and
she
did
grad
work
here
at
Cornell.
After
being
an
undergrad
at
Yale.
She
was
the
first
woman
in
America
in
her
family
to
go
to
college
black
woman
from
Memphis,
and
she
told
me
once
that
one
of.
A
A
G
G
A
G
C
A
G
A
A
P
D
P
George
Floyd
of
Brielle
Taylor
I
think
that
black
and
brown
men
and
women
are
getting
their
lives
cut
short
across
this
country
and
that
we
are
bearing
witness
to
it
and
abandoning
them.
I
think
that
this
should
call
for
and
I'm
not
going
to
say
that
our
moment
of
silence
is
performative,
but
I
am
going
to
say
that
it
is
not
enough
that
this
calls
for
bold
and
sweeping
reform,
and
that
I
am
tired
of
hearing
feasibility
and
logistical
issues.
Cited
of
reasons
why
we
can't
change.
B
I,
don't
want
to
help
the
time
passed
about
expressing
things
to
everyone
who
cannot
explain
anything
for
every
one
of
the
topics.
This
is
the
part
of
the
meeting
where
we
hear
from
the
public,
and
in
this
case
also,
our
employees
and
those
voices
are
important
for
us
to
hear
and
I
want
to.
B
Thank
you
and
I
want
to
remind
you,
thanks
to
my
colleagues
who
also
emphasize
this
point,
that
we
can't
always
work
as
quickly
as
we
like,
there's
just
things
that
get
in
the
way,
but
we
are
hearing
you
and
we
are
going
to
do
our
best
to
try
and
move
forward
as
quickly
as
possible.
Thank.
C
C
E
I,
don't
know
if
she's
still
here,
I
think
Navy
is
gone
and
I
just
want
to
thank
her
for
her
diligence
to
you
know
it's
it's
good
to
see
her
in
this
room.
A
Thank
you
all
right,
seeing
no
further
comments
from
colleagues,
we
do
have
a
special
presentation
this
evening
from
Rebecca
Evans,
the
national
director
of
sustainability
and
our
sustainability
planner.
We
have
asked
for
updates
on
a
regular
basis
on
the
the
New
Deal
initiatives
and
Rebecca
has
a
presentation.
A
A
And
Rebecca
I
believe
you're
here
so
turn
it
over
to
you.
O
O
Okay,
well,
I
can
go
ahead
and
introduce
myself
because
I
think
there
are
some
folks
that
I
have
not
met
before
so.
I
am
Rebecca
Evans
acting
director
of
sustainability,
I've
been
with
the
city
since
August
2021
I
started
on
contract
and
then
became
full-time
I,
believe
April
or
May
of
last
year,
so
been
here
a
little
while
and
I'm
still
learning
the
ropes.
But
sustainability
is
the
name
of
the
game
and
I
know
that
at
least
so.
O
So
just
as
a
reminder,
there
are
a
few
goals
that
were
outlined
in
the
green
New
Deal
resolution
they're
really
really
broad.
But
you
know
the
big
one
is
community-wide
carbon
neutrality
by
2030.
we're
getting
pretty
close
seven
years
away.
100
renewable
electricity
in
government
operations
by
2025
in
you
know,
technicality.
We
have
reached
this
by
purchasing
renewable
energy
credits.
O
There
are
a
lot
of
issues
with
Rex
I'm
not
going
to
go
into
them,
but
there
are
a
lot
of
equity
issues
associated
with
them.
They're
you
know
generally
unreliable,
so
it
is
in
the
city's
best
interest
to
explore
other
options.
O
There,
we've
also
committed
to
a
50
reduction
in
fleet
vehicles
by
2025
and
facilitate
a
comprehensive
public
engagement
process,
and
then,
of
course,
as
I've
mentioned
before,
the
lens
through
which
we
do
all
of
this
work
is
focused
on
Justice
and
equity
and
ensuring
that
all
community
members
share
benefits
to
reduce
social
and
economic
inequities
that
have
been
present
for
Generations,
so
just
really
quickly.
I'm
going
to
run
through
this
and
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions,
some
general
successes
for
2022
we
completed
a
greenhouse
gas
inventory
for
both
government
and
community
activities.
O
We
launched
Electrify
Ithaca.
As
you
all
know,
there
was
lots
of
press
around
that
that
we
were
not
really
expecting
but
launched
the
program
to
decarbonize
all
six
thousand
buildings
in
the
city,
in
partnership
with
a
number
of
Technology
Partners,
including
the
program
manager,
block
power.
O
We've
also
completed
the
stock
analysis
of
the
city's
building.
So
trying
to
model
what
would
renewable
sources
look
like
in
City
buildings?
What
can
we
expect
from
greenhouse
gas
reductions
and
that
was
completed
by
a
master
of
engineering
student
at
Cornell
and
she
did
a
wonderful
job
block
power
has
since
received
all
of
that
data
and
was
equally
impressed.
O
You
also
Define
climate
Justice
communities
in
2022,
so
we
accepted
a
local
definition
of
what
that
means
further
contextualized
vulnerabilities
that
are
present
in
Ithaca,
because
when
We
examined
the
state
definition
and
the
federal
definition,
we
noticed
that
there
were
a
number
of
communities
that
were
falling
through
the
cracks
that
should
be
receiving
benefits,
but
by
those
definitions
would
not,
and
a
lot
of
that
is
due
to
you
know,
sort
of
the
transient
nature
of
a
college
town.
O
We
have
people
moving
all
of
the
time
and
some
of
our
data
sets
are
skewed
because
of
students
and
we're
still
trying
to
figure
out
exactly.
How
can
we
map
that
on
the
household
basis
and
that's
an
ongoing
project?
O
We
also
entered
phase
two
of
the
itha
energy
code
supplement,
which
tightened
regulations
on
new
development
and
the
points
that
are
required
to
receive
a
building
permit
doubled
on
January
1st
2023.
So
we
can
expect
even
Greener
and
cleaner
buildings
in
the
coming
year
we
have
a
few
projects
that
are
being
dragged
through
2022
into
2023,
so
there's
development
happening.
There's
implementation
happening.
You
can
probably
expect
some
proposals
coming
to
council.
One
is
the
CCA
implementation
plan,
which
I
know
you
are
all
probably
waiting
for.
O
The
PSC
Public
Service
Commission
recently
released
new
regulations
on
new
CCA
new
and
existing
CCA
programs
that
governs
how
they
are
approved
by
the
state.
Psc
has
60
days
to
release
the
new
format
for
applications
which
pushes
our
entire
timeline
by
60
days
and
then
an
additional
30
days
to
actually
develop
that
implementation
plan.
O
This
is
not
a
bad
thing.
It's
just
really.
It's
a
policy
decision
from
PSC
and
just
pushes
us
back
a
little
bit,
but
I
do
believe
that
we
are
still
going
to
likely
hit
or
be
very,
very
close
to
the
January
2024
launch
date
for
the
CCA
program.
O
We
expect
that
that
will
look
a
lot
like
the
block
power
program,
bringing
in
investment
and
potentially
leases,
depending
on
how
the
city
wants
to
approach,
Fleet,
electrification
and,
of
course,
deploying
EV
charging
infrastructure,
particularly
in
those
climate
Justice
communities
to
facilitate
the
adoption
of
EVS
still
working
on
the
climate
action
plan.
This
is
getting
longer
and
more
complex.
The
more
that
I
look
at
it.
O
We're
looking
at
climate
risks,
particularly
to
City
infrastructure
and
to
City
residents,
also
looking
at
a
wealth
of
mitigation
strategies,
resilience
strategies
and,
of
course,
how
to
pay
for
all
of
those
things
and
Justice
50,
which
is
one
of
the
core
pillars
of
the
green
New
Deal,
along
with
the
climate
action
plan.
Basically,
a
government
framework
to
ensure
that
all
of
the
green
New
Deal
benefits
are
shared
among
all
of
our
communities,
with
priority
going
to
those
climate
Justice
communities
that
we
defined
in
2022..
O
Of
course,
electrification.
So
we're
working
with
a
number
of
Education
Partners
to
do
Outreach,
trying
to
connect
with
building
owners,
landlords,
tenants,
business
owners
trying
to
sell
the
benefits
of
electrification
and
starts
to
try
and
retrofit
all
six
thousand
buildings
and,
of
course,
monitoring
the
IRA.
The
inflation
reduction
act,
which
just
infused
a
ton
of
money
into
electrification
and
Greening
of
buildings
in
particular,
and
with
a
focus
on
disadvantaged
community.
So
we
can
expect
a
ton
of
incentives,
particularly
for
solar
for
low-income
families.
O
So
that's
something
to
look
forward
to
and
I
continue
to,
monitor
that,
and
one
thing
that
I
wanted
to
mention
in
this
presentation
that
I
think
often
goes
unmentioned
is
the
outside
influence
on
the
green
New
Deal.
There
are
a
ton
of
externalities
that
influence
the
rate
and
pace
of
progress
on
the
green
New
Deal
that
are
outside
of
the
city's
control.
So
a
couple
of
those
you
know
the
state
of
the
grid,
the
state
of
the
substations
in
the
city
that
provide
electricity
to
Residents
and
businesses
and,
of
course,
the
transmission
infrastructure.
O
This
has
all
been
built
decades
ago
and
is
really
not
ready
for
electrification
at
a
large
scale,
so
we're
partnering
with
NYSEG
and
trying
to
find
some
solutions
to
provide
support.
Excuse
me
to
overburden
substations
and
transmission
lines.
So
you
know:
NYSEG
investment
NYSEG
invested
around
56
million
if
I'm
per,
if
I'm,
remembering
correctly
last
year
into
to
City
infrastructure,
also
looking
into
City
investment,
that's
Big,
C
and
little
C,
City
and
local
deers.
O
That's
distributed
energy
resources,
things
like
solar,
other
renewable
sources
and
battery
storage,
and
then,
of
course,
how
can
we
Implement
those
into
the
CCA
program,
new
state
regulations
that
are
governing
activity
that
the
city
has
already
been
engaged
in
a
Public
Service
Commission?
Being
the
one
that's
top
of
mind,
that
is
pushing
our
timeline
back
a
little
bit
just
requires
some
shifting,
but
again
outside
of
City
control.
O
This
and
this
one's
across
the
board
outside
of
sustainability,
too
market
pricing
and
Supply
chains,
heat
pumps.
They
are
hard
to
come
by
these
days,
you're
on
a
wait
list
to
actually
get
them.
There
are
some
contractors
that
have
them
on
hand,
but
there
is
a
long
wait
for
anything
that
is
electric,
including
electric
vehicles,
so
we're
working
with
product
vendors,
we're
working
with
esco's
and,
of
course,
our
CCA
administrator
to
try
and
negotiate
pricing
and
aggregating
as
much
as
possible
for
electric
vehicles
and
for
heat
pumps
and
other
renewable
projects.
O
And,
of
course
the
hardest
thing
is
culture
adoption?
How
do
we
get
people
to
actually
do
these
things?
How
do
we
sell
electrification
and
how
do
we
make
people
want
to
buy
an
electric
vehicle,
so
we're
partnering
with
a
number
of
Education
Partners,
including
CCE,
Cornell
Cooperative,
Extension
of
Tompkins,
County,
historic
Ithaca
block
power
and
our
CCA
administrator
to
try
and
advocate
for
electrification
and
explore
with
residents
the
benefits
of
electrification,
how
it
can
benefit
their
health
and
their
comfort
in
their
homes?
O
And
then,
of
course,
we
have
to
comply
with
any
regulations
that
are
set
by
the
state
and
the
federal
government
we're
seeing
a
ton
of
support
coming
from
the
national
and
the
state
level.
O
I'm
we're
seeing
a
huge
shift
in
how
people
are
approaching
climate
change
at
every
single
level,
including
President
Biden
and
governor
hokel,
who
are
acknowledging
that
climate
change
is
not
just
happening,
but
it
is
an
emergency.
This
2030
timeline
is
critical
and
we're
getting
really
really
close
with
only
seven
years
to
spare,
but
through
that
support,
we're
also
seeing
a
ton
of
money
being
invested
into
these
Technologies.
O
So,
like
I,
said
we're
monitoring
the
inflation
reduction
act,
there's
a
ton
of
spending
tax
breaks,
the
this
is
the
breakdown
of
the
IRA,
so
you
can
see.
385
billion
have
actually
been
invested
in
energy
and
climate
and
another
100
billion
in
health
care.
So
you
can
see
a
little
bit
of
a
break
down
there,
but
ultimately,
trying
to
reduce
the
deficit
and
investing
in
domestic
energy
production
and
promoting
clean
energy
would
ultimately
can
bring
down
costs
to
Residents
all
across
the
country.
O
We
also
saw
the
climate
Action
Council
release
a
scoping
plan,
late
December
2022,
so
this
is
at
the
state
level.
That's
saying
this
is
how
the
state
is
going
to
reach
the
goals
of
the
clcpa,
the
state's
climate
plan.
This
we
had
actually
a
number
of
ithacans
that
were
part
of
this
Council
from
Cornell
that
are
making
recommendations
of
how
the
state
is
actually
going
to
tackle
this
issue.
This
is
not
a
legally
binding
plan.
O
There
are
certain
regulatory
actions
and
Investments
that
need
to
be
made
and
need
to
be
voted
on
in
order
for
these
to
actually
take
place,
but
they
cover
these
sort
of
big,
broad
buckets
of
Transportation
electricity,
industry,
buildings,
Agriculture
and
waste.
All
of
the
typical
sustainability
issues
and
I
will
send
out
this
slide
deck
afterwards.
If
you
wanted
to
dig
a
little
bit
deeper,
but
in
the
interest
of
time
we'll
just
look
at
these
big
buckets,
but
a
lot
of
these
goals
are
the
same.
O
What
the
city
is
looking
at,
you
know:
transition
to
electric
vehicle,
zero
emissions
codes,
which
the
city
has
already
implemented
with
the
energy
code
supplement
upgrade
of
transmission
and
distribution
for
electricity,
which
the
city
desperately
needs.
The
entire
State
desperately
needs,
and
this
is
going
to
help
support
any
investment
that
the
city
or
our
partners
make
and
then,
finally,
what
can
we
expect
in
2023?
O
This
is
not
a
full
list
of
the
projects
that
I'm
working
on
or
that
we're
working
on,
but
just
sort
of
highlights
that
you
can
expect
we're
looking
at
Green
hydrogen
and
an
EV
charging
project
with
tcat
at
the
South
Forks
campus,
we're
also
looking
at
internal
carbon
pricing
to
help
make
development
decisions.
O
Also
doing
an
energy
assessment
for
our
city
building
portfolio,
so
releasing
an
RFP
to
do
basically
create
an
energy
roadmap.
How
are
we
going
to
Electrify
the
city's
buildings
in
a
way?
That's
our
the
biggest
bang
for
our
buck.
You
know
the
most
carbon
emission
reductions
for
the
amount
of
money
that
we
invest
and
I
expect
that
this
will
be
extremely
useful
in
charting
our
path
forward
for
the
next
seven
years,
we're
also
looking
at
opportunities
for
solar,
arrays
and
battery
storage.
O
This
would
help
support
our
aging
infrastructure,
including
the
substation
at
South
Hill,
which
is
already
overburdened
so
trying
to
find
some
spaces
where
we
might
be
able
to
install
solar,
also
partnering,
with
the
surrounding
municipalities,
to
see
if
there
are
ways
that
we
can
pair
our
investment
and
create
larger
projects
that
otherwise
wouldn't
be
possible.
If
the
city
were
to
work
alone,
we're
also
pursuing
lead
for
City
certification.
So
you
are
probably
familiar
with
a
lead
silver
gold
Platinum
for
buildings.
There's
also
that
option
for
cities
that
looks
at
really
holistic
sustainability.
O
So
you
know
how
are
people
living?
Are
they
getting
a
living
wage?
Do
they
have
a
safe
place
to
live?
It's
really
looking
at
everything
that
the
city
has
to
offer
and
I'm,
hoping
that
that
will
be
finished
by
the
end
of
2023,
we're
also
having
ongoing
collaborations
with
courses
at
Cornell
to
look
at
opportunities
and
risks,
and
we
have
a
an
intern
that
will
be
proposing
a
deconstruction
ordinance
for
the
city.
So
how
are
we?
O
How
are
we
dealing
with
adaptive,
reuse
and
trying
to
minimize
the
amount
of
stuff
that
we're
sending
to
the
landfill
and,
of
course,
we're
also
exploring
building
performance
standards
for
existing
buildings?
This
is
going
to
be
really
really
critical.
We
have
the
energy
code
supplement
that
regulates
how
new
buildings
are
supposed
to
perform,
but
we
don't
have.
O
We
really
don't
even
have
benchmarking
for
existing
buildings,
so
working
with
the
federal
government
and
the
state
government
and
other
municipalities
to
try
and
sketch
out
a
path
forward
for
existing
buildings
and
how
we
can
one
get
more
data
and
then
two.
How
can
we
regulate
how
those
buildings
are
are
using
energy
and,
of
course,
a
lot
of
this
is
going
to
come
down
from
the
state
and
their
new
regulations
with
the
clcpa
and
scoping
plan.
O
O
A
D
A
Know
that
all
the
person
we
can
tell
Mo
wanted
to
be
here
for
this
discussion
and
I
just
want
to
remind
my
colleagues
that
this
is
a
this
is
one
presentation
you'll
have
the
slides.
There
will
be
regular
updates
on
community
deal
initiatives
for
him
yeah
and
thank
you
so
much
Rebecca
for
this
presentation
style
is
very
important
for
me.
A
G
The
mean
task
out
there
and
I
really
appreciate
the
work
you're
doing
one
thing
that
I
have
routine
to
electron
or
Fleet
or
Vehicles,
particularly
in
the
realm
of
DPAC.
Now.
A
On
the
purpose
by
saying
I'm,
pretty
support
of
electrification
of
our
buses
and
all
of
our
Transit
situation,
Transit
vehicles
I,
have
heard
from
folks
working
within
Canada
drivers
or
as
mechanics
there's
concerns
with
some
of
the
buses
breaking
down.
So
any
more
electric
buses
breaking
down.
G
Grappling
with
dealing
with
new
technology-
it's
been
there
and
for
us
to
do.
But
how
are
we
dealing
with
that?
Because
we're.
O
Sorry,
I
I
think
I
caught
most
of
that
I
I
heard
concerns
about
tcat
and
the
electric
buses
breaking
down,
so
tcat
is
not
part
of
the
city
fleet,
but
I
think
I
see
this
as
one
of
the
reasons
that
we
should
consider
leasing
Vehicles,
instead
of
buying
them
outright.
O
If
we
are
leasing
them,
then
they
will
get
replaced
if
they
are
not
working
appropriately
with
that
said
they're,
you
know
there
are
not
electric
counterparts
for
every
single
internal
combustion
engine,
so
we
will
likely
need
to
look
at
a
phased
approach
to
electrifying
our
fleets.
So,
for
example,
there
are
likely
a
number
of
DPW
vehicles
that
are
not
going
to
have
electric
counterparts.
Yet
the
terrain
in
Ithaca
presents
a
unique
problem,
given
the
hills
specifically
for
diesel
vehicles,
which
again
a
phased
approach,
would
be
my
recommendation.
O
What
I
hope
to
do
as
part
of
our
RFP
is
require
any
program
manager
that
would
be
facilitating
that
program
to
provide
training
to
our
staff
that
are
already
managing
the
fleet,
one
so
that
they
are
gaining
marketable
skills
and
two,
so
that
they
are
prepared
to
maintain
our
Fleet
in-house.
But
we
would
still
have
the
option,
presumably
to
bring
in
there
are
some
vehicles
that
you
know.
O
Vendors
would
really
prefer
to
to
work
on
them
themselves,
so
we
would
retain
that
option,
but
I
think
anyway,
so
I
think
the
risk
of
you
know.
Technology
not
working,
as
expected,
only
underscores
the
importance
of
leasing
these
vehicles
instead
of
buying
them
outright,
even
if
it
may
be
more
expensive
in
the
long
run
the
services
that
would
come
with
that
lease
I
think
you
know
they
outweigh
any
marginal
increasing
cost
over.
You
know
a
15-year
lease.
So
what
have
you.
O
G
We
just
that
most
of
this
meeting
listening
to
our
employees,
we're
playing
also
did
not
make
enough
money
yeah
the
cost
of
some
of
these
heavy
duty.
Electric
vehicles
at.
G
G
The
cost
of
the
same
thing
with
most
with
a
diesel
engineering
three
times.
So
how
do
we
help
our
employees.
G
The
technology
for
these
electric
vehicles
is
new
and.
O
Yeah
I
I
think
again.
This
underscores
the
importance
of
considering
a
lease
option
and
a
phased
approach.
I
would
not
recommend
going
for
electrifying
heavy
duty,
Vehicles
right
off
the
bat
I
would
look
more
at
the
single
passenger
vehicles
and
consolidation
of
our
Fleet.
You
know:
do
we
have
a
redundancy
in
vehicles
and
I'm,
not
necessarily
talking
about
fire
trucks
or
emergency
response
vehicles?
But
how
can
we
you
know?
Is
there
an
option
to
share
Vehicles
between
departments
and
that
analysis
would
be
an
expected
outcome
of
any
project
or
program
manager?
O
Should
this
RFP
go
public
I
think
that
there
are
certainly
I
think
that
there
are
certainly
options
to
negotiate
price
to
make
sure
that
the
city
is
saving
money
where
it
can
at
the
end
of
the
day.
You
know
this
is
a
negotiation
between
the
city
and
any
program,
manager
and
I
think
we
need
to
be
sensitive
to
the
needs
of
the
city,
and
this
is
one
of
those
needs.
O
B
Yeah,
thank
you
and
thank
you
Rebecca,
as
always
great
presentation,
and
it's
good
to
for
us
to
hear
this
pretty
regularly
to
help
us
all
stay
on
track
for
what
we
have
committed
to.
I
want
to
come
back
to
the
point
you
made
about
the
resources
that
may
become
available,
we'll
have
more
monitoring
those
opportunities
and
I
also
want
to
make
sure
that
we
we
make
sure
we
understand
what
it
requires
on
your
part
and
how
we
can
make
sure
the
city's
prepared
to
go
after
those
things.
B
Can
you
give
us
any
sense
of
you
know
how
you
can
get
help
on
that
or
where
you
might
need
help
or
what
we
can
do
to
make
sure
we
are
prepared
as
a
city
and
anything
more
than
we
have
already
done
to
help
repair.
O
Yeah,
so
we
are
part
of
a
number
of
networks
that
are
monitoring
the
IRA
most
of
these
funding
opportunities,
favor
multi-stakeholder
proposals.
So
the
fact
that
all
of
our
partners
are
monitoring
where
this
money
is
going
plays
to
our
advantage
and
I
think
wholeheartedly
that
sustainability
is
not
a
you
know.
One
person
cannot
solve
climate
change,
so
it's
going
to
require
a
lot
of
Partnerships
I'm,
not
I'm,
not
entirely
sure
how
to
how
to
answer
your
question.
O
You
know
we're
following
the
federal
government
guidelines.
There
are
a
number
of
webinars
coming
up.
The
EPA
is
expected
to
release
their
greenhouse
gas
reduction
fund,
funding,
availability,
I
guess
in
February,
which
would
make
a
ton
of
money
available
to
Residents
I.
Think
one
of
the
other
things
that
is
really
helpful
is
block.
O
Power
is
monitoring
this
very
very
closely
and
as
they
are
the
program
manager,
they
will
likely
be
the
liaison
for
all
of
these
incentives
through
the
federal
and
the
state
government,
and
that's
one
of
the
benefits
of
the
electrification
program.
Is
this
sort
of
One-Stop
shop
for
block
power?
They
will
be
able
to
tell
you.
These
are
what
you
qualify
for,
so
that
the
city
doesn't
have
to
do
that
and
that
residents
don't
have
to
do
that
on
their
own
and
contractors.
Don't
have
to
worry
about
it.
O
Blocked
power
is
managing
it,
I'm,
not
sure.
If
that
answers
your
question.
O
Absolutely
so
I
would
expect
that
you
know:
should
the
city
decide
to
move
forward
with
an
RFP
like
this,
that
the
program
manager
would
function
really,
similarly
to
block
power
where
it
would
be
their
responsibility
to
apply
for
incentives
that
are
available
at
the
state
and
federal
level
already,
including
what's
coming
from
the
IRA
and
the
greenhouse
gas
reduction
fund,
so
that
money
would
be
applied
to
our
to
our
lease
in
that
entire
lease,
the
it
would
go
down
so
again,
I
think
you're
right.
O
We
we're
all
in
this
together
and
it's
going
to
be
the
responsibility
of
all
of
our
partners,
including
the
city,
to
monitor
all
of
these
things
and
I'm
certainly
committed
to
doing
that.
And
then
you
know
soaking
up
things
like
the
sponge
as
much
as
I
can
but
I
think.
That's
where
having
a
program
manager
for
really
complex
projects
like
the
fleet
and
like
electrification
of
buildings
is
really
really
valuable,
because
it
does
take
some
of
that.
Some
of
that
work
off
of
our
plates.
A
Thank
you,
Rebecca
Cynthia
duck
and
Phoebe.
A
D
A
I
guess
I
guess:
there's
something
about
government.
They
saying
that's
different
from
private
leasing,
because
I
believe
that
five
leads
a
vehicle
and
still
become
responsible
for
maintenance
and
replacement
of
the
vehicle
fails.
So
is
it
different
like
do
governments
get
to
lease
and
then
not
have
to
pay
for
maintenance.
O
K
And
indeed,
if
there's
a
loss
to
a
vehicle,
you
pay
for
that
as
well
before
you
return
it.
So
maybe
maybe
that's
something:
I
need
to
learn
more
about
Municipal
leasing,
that's
different
from
privately
saying
that
I'm
unaware
of.
But
my
question
has
to
be
with
an
aspect
that.
A
I,
which
was
part
of
the
original
plan
that
is
still
very
important
to
me
and
I
think,
is
also
a
barrier
to
implementation.
One
of
the
plans
that
Louisa
brought
forward
included
training.
A
Especially
individuals
and
communities
of
color
to
provide
the
skills
and
the
labor
that
would
be
able
to
work
on
these
projects.
One
of
the
barriers
that
I
have
seen
that
I
have
heard
about
is
people
who
are
interested
in
making
these
upgrades,
but
they
can't
find
anybody
to
do
the
work.
They
can't
find
a
contractors,
they
get
their
supply
chain
issues.
They
can't
get
someone
to
come
in
and
do
the
inspection,
because
it's
just
not
enough
workers
out
there
to
do
the
work.
K
To
train
our
communities
of
color
and
individuals
to
do
this
work?
How
is
that
project
going
our?
How
many
more
months
are
we
into
being.
A
Are
actually
able
to
support
our.
O
O
I,
don't
directly
manage
those
programs,
but
our
partners
do
so
Cornell
Cooperative
Extension
has
a
really
robust
program.
That's
going
on
right
now
they
had
their
second
cohort
I
believe
of
graduates.
This
past
winter
and
I
had
the
pleasure
of
of
meeting
them
along
with
some
stakeholders
at
TC3
and
BOCES
and
southworks
to
talk
about
you
know
what
does
Workforce
Development
look
like
in
Ithaca
and
how
can
we
expand
our
reach
with
Workforce
Development
beyond
the
city
into
the
county
and
into
the
region?
O
So
there's
actually
a
meeting
coming
up
that
I
would
encourage
any
and
all
council
members
to
attend
and
I'm
happy
to
provide
some
additional
information
coming
on
February
15th
I
believe
there's
a
Cornell
course
that
is
exploring
the
development
of
adaptive,
reuse,
Workforce,
Development
Hub
up
at
the
southworks
campus.
That
would
provide
a
physical
space
to
train
some
of
these
Green
Job
students
to
be
prepared
to
actually
do
that.
O
So,
following
an
engineering
firm,
that's
doing
the
energy
assessment
be
able
to
Shadow
a
contractor,
that's
installed
a
heat
pump
and
then
be
able
to
track
the
energy
performance
of
that
building,
so
people
will
be
able
to
actually
visualize
what
does
it
look
like
when
I'm
in
these
jobs
instead
of
having
this
theoretical
idea?
One
thing
that
remains
a
challenge
is
recruitment
across
all
communities,
but
particularly
communities
of
color,
and
that's
something
that
I'm
really
committed
to
trying
to
rectify.
How
can
we?
O
How
can
we
make
labor
sexy
again
and
how
can
we
make
sure
that
we're
reaching
the
right
communities
that
can
benefit
from
these
jobs
and
and
teach
them
entrepreneurship
as
well
aside
from
just
the
manual
labor,
that's
required
of
this
type
of
transition?
O
As
far
as
the
specific
program
that
you're
referencing,
that
Luis
was
working
on,
I'm
I
I
would
love
to
connect
offline
and
see
if
we're
talking
about
the
same
program
or
not,
and
if
not
how
we
can
rope
that
back
into
Green
New
Deal
plans,
but
right
now
from
where
I'm
sitting
I'm
I'm
not
sure
that
I'm
familiar
with
what
program
exactly
you're
referencing,
unless
it's
the
green
jobs,
Corridor
Maybe.
D
O
So
that
that
project
is
continuing,
you
know
we
did
not
get
the
funding
that
we
were
hoping
for
free
from
Eda
next
month.
We
have
monthly
meetings
with
that
group
and
next
month
we
are
doing
a
deep
dive
into
one
of
the
challenges
to
work
for
actually
developing
this
Workforce
and
what
are
funding
opportunities
that
we
can
collectively
take
advantage
of
to
try
and
build
it
throughout
the
region.
O
E
A
On
the
on
the
affordability
issue,
so
that
I
was
gonna,
TK
hasn't
paid
for
a
single
election
plus
which,
by
being
at
the
Forefront
of
that,
can
help
and
give
you
a
compelling
case
and,
as
you
mentioned,
combining
it
at
first
with
a
directional
ability
that
everyone
would
have
been
taken.
Along
with.
With
my
shout
out
to
anyone
with
the
city
and
other
organizations.
A
A
A
O
A
Yeah
and
and
our
people
right
now
going
through
that
that
program,
yeah.
O
They
definitely
are.
We
haven't
actually
gotten
into
any
buildings.
Yet
part
of
that
is
you
know:
interest
rates
changed
the
electricity
Market
is
extremely
volatile
right
now,
and
we
continue
to
monitor
that
and
then
the
IRA,
with
all
of
the
incentives
that
are
becoming
available,
we
want
to
make
sure
that
residents
are
getting
the
lowest
price
as
possible.
O
So
if
you're
interested
in
electrifying
your
home,
your
first
step
would
be
to
go
to
the
block
power
website.
If
you're
sure
that
you
want
to
Electrify
there.
We
also
have
additional
resources,
if
you're,
not
so
sure-
and
you
want
to
learn
about
the
Technologies-
learn
about
the
benefits
of
the
program-
they're
sort
of
intermediate
steps,
but
let's
assume
that
you're
ready
to
Electrify
your
home
you'd,
go
to
the
block
power
Ithaca
specific
website
and
put
in
some
information
about
your
building.
O
Ask
about
the
age
of
your
water,
heater,
your
heat
or
your
furnace
or
boiler
general
information
about
Windows
Doors.
That
sort
of
thing
you
would
then
get
an
automatic
email
that
says
you
know
these
are
the
this
is
the
equipment
that
it
would
be
most
beneficial
to
replace
in
your
home.
These
are
the
incentives
that
you
could
potentially
qualify
for,
of
course,
they're
not
asking
for
income
information
or
anything
like
that,
so
they
can't
be
hyper
specific.
But
you
know
these
are
the
incentives
that
are
available,
and
this
is
a
potential
leasing
option.
O
How
much
would
it
cost
you
per
month?
You
would
then
scan.
You
would
then
schedule
a
meeting
with
one
of
their
business
development
managers.
That
would
negotiate
that
lease
with
you.
You
would
figure
out
a
road
map
as
to
how
to
Electrify
your
home
and
we
are
looking
at.
How
can
we
do
that
sort
of
piecemeal?
So,
let's
say
you're
ready
to
install
an
air
source
heat
pump,
but
you're
not
necessarily
ready
to
install
an
induction
stove.
O
We're
also
able
to
then
hopefully
track
Energy
savings
in
those
buildings.
We
have
a
partnership
that
we're
hoping
to
launch
with
a
company
that
basically
makes
super
smart
thermostats
for
lack
of
a
better
terminology
that
would
be
able
to
learn
your
habits
in
your
home
and
show
you
Energy
savings
over
time,
and
we
can
aggregate
all
of
that
data
to
be
able
to
show
how
much
greenhouse
gas
emissions
are.
O
We
saving
from
these
retrofits
as
the
city
and
not
necessarily
on
an
individual
level,
since
we
want
to
avoid
privacy
issues
and
that
sort
of
thing.
So
it's
a
it's
a
long
process
of
just
trying
to
you
know,
get
equipment
and
that
sort
of
thing,
but
again
I,
think
the
benefit.
Is
this
sort
of
One-Stop
shop
where
you
don't
have
to
contact
a
contractor?
You
don't
have
to
apply
for
incentives,
block
power.
Does
all
of
that,
for
you.
F
And
also
not
only
that.
E
Like
the
technology
moves
so
fast
right,
so
what
we
might
have
right
now-
and
maybe
the
next
three
four
years
might
mean
changing
more
money
in
the
whole
thing,
so
I
I
are
those
points
being
taken
into
consideration
right
and
also
when
you
talk,
you
talk
a
lot
about
homeowners.
No,
it
sounds
to
me
right
and.
F
F
Has
quite
a
few
different
apartments
and
stuff
like.
O
O
I'm
really
glad
that
you
asked
that
question
I
think
that
the
city
needs
to
look
really
critically
at
renter
protections
around
electrification.
There
are
a
number
of
gaps
that
leave
renters,
particularly
vulnerable
in
this
transition.
O
O
There's
also
a
pilot
program
right
now
with
sustainable
Finger
Lakes
that
is
specifically
geared
towards
renters
and
looking
at
long-term
renters,
not
necessarily
students,
we're
looking
at
you
know:
permanent
residents
in
Tompkins,
County
I,
don't
believe
they're.
Looking
just
at
the
city
of
Ithaca
and
working
with
landlords
to
replace
to
install
heat
pumps,
they're
really
focusing
on
heat
pumps
and
through
that
contract
they
would
replace
that
heat
pump
and
that
landlord
would
commit
to
one
continuing
to
serve
LMI
communities
as
tenants.
O
So
you
could
not
have
an
upper
income
resident
come
in
and
rent
an
apartment
that
was
previously
occupied
by
an
LMI
tenant
and
take
advantage
of
these
coupons.
They
would
have
to
continue
to
be
LMI
and
they
have
to
sign
a
contract
that
limits
the
amount
of
rent
that
they're
able
to
increase
or
not
increase
at
all
I'm,
not
totally
familiar
on
the
specific
details
of
that
program.
I'm
just
learning
about
it,
but
I'm
happy
to
share
information
about
that
program.
O
I
believe
their
goal
is
a
hundred
units
in
two
years,
and
you
know
there
are
lots
of
opportunities
for
extending
that
funding,
I
believe
through
the
state,
but
I
100
agree
with
you.
We
need
to
think
really
critically
about
how
are
we
protecting
renters
in
this
transition
and
making
sure
one
that
they
can
take
advantage
of
these
Technologies
and
two
that
they're
not
taking
advantage
of,
as
we
start
to
install
these
Technologies.
H
E
Most
importantly,
how
are
we
making
a
better
environment
if
we're
not
looking.
E
A
Yeah,
thank
you,
I
think
we're
also
identified
in
Japanese
moment,
but
we're
identifying
a
number
of
questions
and
topics
to
be
addressed
in
future.
Renew
deal,
presentations
and
they'll
be
ongoing.
Discussions
with
with
Rebecca
and
a
few
people
have
mentioned
the
commission,
the
new
commission
that
will
be
coming
out
shortly.
A
A
A
To
be
involved
in
this
work
with
you,
as
you
know,
I
always
look
for
just
ways
to
give.
B
This
momentum,
in
my.
A
Understanding-
and
one
thing
that
has
occurred
to
me,
you
know
is-
is.
B
And
at
the
helm
of
this
transition
really
making
this
a
hub
that
can
attract
that
kind
of
work.
A
And
companies
to
establish
Offices
here,
because
I
think
that
would.
B
Be
a
huge
move
to
this
local
economy
and
the
movement
that
we
embraced.
What
would
be
industries
that
we
just
argue
and.
O
Yeah,
you
know,
we've
mentioned
a
few
times
how
critical
Partnerships
are
in
this
work,
and
you
know,
while
the
city
of
Ithaca
may
not
be
equipped
to
absorb
new
industry
at
scale,
we
have
Partners
in
other
municipalities
like
Syracuse
and
Rochester
that
are,
and
we
are
partnered
with
them.
They,
like
Center
State
CEO,
just
submitted
a
massive
grant.
That
would
ultimately
support
a
lot
of
this
industrial
growth,
especially
around
chip
technology
that
would
ultimately
bring
down
costs.
O
As
more
of
these
municipalities
in
Upstate,
New
York
are
committing
to
carpet
neutrality
goals
like
the
city
I,
don't
know
that
specifically
within
you
know
the
city,
geography
that
we
could
support
that,
but
anything
within
Upstate
any
sort
of
manufacturing
industry
that
supports
this
transition
would
be
a
huge
benefit
and
ultimately
would
bring
down
costs,
and
would
you
know,
ease
supply
chain
issues,
so
you
know
I
feel
like
I'm,
giving
the
same
answer
over
and
over
again
the
answer
is
Partnerships,
but
it
I
think
it
really
is,
and
continuing
to
communicate
and
partner
with
our
surrounding
municipalities
is
going
to
be
really
critical
and
a
lot
of
these
non-profits
that
are
that
are
already
doing
this
work.
O
I
have
no
intention
of
disrupting
the
work
that
is
already
going
on,
but
trying
to
find
ways
that
we
can
support
all
of
the
projects
and
programs
in
this
region
that
are
already
working.
So
how
can
we
collectively
apply
for
funding
to
support
the
work?
That's
already
happening
and
take
advantage
of
that
work
so
that
we
can
make
this
transition
as
quickly
as
possible,
given
our
seven
year
timeline.
O
H
A
I
appreciate
your
answer
on
the
earth
before
you've
seen
a
lot
of
that,
so
you
know
we're
going
to
stay
a
problem
throughout
the
city
and
you
know
with
salt,
especially
college
town,
but
that
number
would
be
95
right
here,
so
I
love
to
touch
it.
Some
of
you
really
need
to
focus
on.
You
know
how
to
be
able
to
actually
development
anyway.
A
G
The
class
is,
of
course
working
their
offering
that
Queen
I
was
doing
to
help
the
staring
here.
O
A
To
help
our
city,
which
it
incredibly
subsidizes,
meet
his
own
climate
issues.
O
Yeah
I
know
what
you're
getting
at
appreciate
the
question,
so
you
know
yes,
they
are
doing
a
a.
There
are
a
number
of
research
projects
that
they
are
looking
at
modeling
of
buildings.
That
sort
of
thing
in
terms
I
think
what
you're
getting
at
is
what
sort
of
financial
investment
is
Cornell
making
in
the
Ithaca
grade,
New
Deal.
O
As
far
as
I
know,
there
has
not
been
any
Finance
direct,
Financial
investment.
However,
we
are
exploring
a
partnership
of
of
them.
Well,
I
should
say
they
are
exploring
a
partnership
by
joining
our
CCA.
O
You
know
that
is
a
long
conversation
and
we're
just
at
the
very
very
beginning
of
what
that
might
look
like.
So
I
absolutely
cannot
guarantee
that
that's
a
decision
that
they
are
going
to
make,
but
that
energy
use
is
massive
given
the
size
of
that
campus
and
has
the
potential
to
make
our
electricity
rate
extremely
competitive.
We're
also
talking
with
the
county
and
Ithaca
College.
O
A
Thank
you
so
much!
Thank
you
so
much
Rebecca
and
a
number
of
these
conversations
will
be
continued
in
future
updates.
But
thank
you
for
tonight's
presentation
very,
very
informative.
A
A
And
that
personally,
9-0
okay,
thank
you.
We
will
now
turn
to
City
Administration
and
items
and
I
will
turn
this
over
to
our
personal
government.
A
G
City
Harbor
is
through
the
process
of
welcoming,
excuse
residential
project
and
whereas
the
development
and
maintenance
agreement
in
the
city
of
Africa
and
city
water
was
executed
on
May
28
2021.,
which,
among
other
things,
obligated
City
Hardware
to
convey
certain
unions
in
certain
approvals
and
construct
any
things.
Certain
improvements,
as
only
expense
for
the
benefit
of
the
poverty
such
as
pre-inclusives
and
improvements
in
Asia,
Municipal,
Golf,
Course
and
whereas,
since
the
appeal
of
the
2021
City
Harbor,
has
met
various
obligations
set
forth
therein,
including
by
recording
certain
events
incorporating
design
requirements.
G
G
G
The
the
human
Golf
Course
a
lot
of
people,
think
of
coffee,
we'll
need
this
activity
through
the
city.
Golf
courses
are
working
class,
Golf,
Course,
it's
be
loved
by
many
people
in
this
community
and
in
this
particular
agreement
takes
a
big
chunk
out
of
the
golf
course
on
both
sides
of
the
of
the
clubhouse
in
1980s,
significantly
compromise
and
means
compromised
throughout
the
degree,
and
there
won't
be
any
room.
G
C
B
B
So
it's
not
like
there
was
some
compromises,
maybe
there
in
in
these
negotiations,
to
take
more
than
is
that
correct
and
and
are
there
some
alternatives
to
that
compromise
that
we
should
be
hearing
about,
and
in
other
words
it
looks
like
there's,
maybe
more
parking
that
was
added
am
I,
agreeing
that
right
and
everything.
A
So
I
may
do
that
not
the
best
person
to
speak
to
about
that
person,
especially
to
speak
to
the
issue
and
I.
Think
the
key
Point
that
I,
that
I'm,
going
through
a
disagreement,
is
that
this
is
an
update
to
a
already
approved
student,
and
it's
really
mostly
technical
improvements.
G
The
big
problem
is,
is
the
turnaround
at
the
end
of
the
stream
and
the
fact
that
parking
straight
through
this
added
to
that.
D
G
Around
really
compromises
the
next
world.
G
It
has
to
be
a
big
Supreme.
It's
like
and
beat
off
the
green,
which
really
I
mean
I,
don't
even
play
golf,
but
it's
it
makes
the
economises
considerably.
G
I
think
the
covet
time
really
hurt
this
negotiation,
because
the
Board
of
Public
Works,
wasn't
in
the
meeting
and
and
I
think,
are
his
right,
but
we've
been
following
the
name
of
it.
This
alignment
of
the
street
could
have
been
different,
maybe
citizen.
This
is
all
pretty
quiet,
I
mean
it
could
have
been
pushed
to
or
on
to
City
Hardware
property.
B
So
maybe
just
for
a
point
of
clarification,
it
sounds
like
George's,
which
I
mean
I,
understand
not
being
happy
about.
The
end
result
not
supporting
this
proposal,
but
it
doesn't
change
this.
A
A
Dedicating
to
Parcels
of
land
to
the
city
emergency
access
incorporating
these
are
not
changes
that
I
only
will
make
and
will
exacerbately
they're
expressing
I
think
those
concerns
are
graduating
in
the
agreement
that
already
enforces
and
will
be
friends
in
their
lives,
is.
G
G
It
would
be
possible
to
put
out
violating
the
agreement
already
is
that
we
were
being
made
this
terminal
smaller,
with
no
parking
and
keep
the
parking
on
the
other
side,
and
it
seems
tools
of
the
parking
on
the
east
side.
Clubhouse.
A
Do
others
have
questions
as
I
think
has
been
expressed?
This
is
an
update
of
the
existing
and
you
may
have
concerns
about
the
University
of
Maryland,
but
this
does
not
change
those
kind
of.
G
Terms
well,
these
these
changes
were
made
within
the
existing
in
they
didn't
actually
have
much
partying
and
take
that
much
land
for
the
golf
course,
and
the
initial
agreement
was
still
in.
A
A
G
D
A
A
G
G
G
A
A
Turn
it
over
to
you
you're
extremely
familiar
with
this
in
the
comments
yeah
just
this
has
been
a
learning
process.
Actually,
in
2003
there
was
a
vision.
K
Cleared
by
the
the
two
plans
that
would
work
cooperatively,.
A
To
treat
Wastewater
throughout
our
municipalities-
and
this
was
actually
a
vision
partially
by
funding
that
we've
seen
to
Implement
phosphorus
removal
upgrades
to
both
of
our
facilities.
It
was
an
opportunity
at
the
time
for
the
time
to
implement
these
agreements
in
2003.
A
We
will
continue
to
receive
the
close
on
an
unlimited
man
and
very
quickly
this
agreementary
Olympic
agreement
details
that
Arrangement
how
we
will
build
for
that
Arrangement.
But,
most
importantly,
they
also
stipulates
that
we
are
the
authority
through
the
Subaru
of
use
laws
at
Cuba,
Health
now
Implement.
As
a
result
of
this
agreement,.
G
The
point
values
and
whereas
County
Council
finds
that
updating
the
definitions
contained
in
the
eye.
Pcs
makes
making
dormitories
eligible
to
earn
density,
forms,
adjusting
Point
values
and
further
incentivize.
The
development
of
electric
vehicle
parking
spaces
and
making
certain
other
changes
will
further.
The
purposes
for
article
7
now,
therefore
get
resolved
that
the
director
of
planning
and
development
for
the
best
community
are
hereby
authorized
to.
B
G
T
Yes,
can
everybody
hear
me?
T
T
General
January
1
2023
marks
the
second
phase
of
regulations
in
the
Ithaca
energy
code
supplement
where
new
buildings
are
required
to
have
80
percent
fewer
greenhouse
gas
emissions
than
required
by
the
state
energy
code
under
the
prescriptive
compliance
path.
The
easy
path
the
points
required
to
comply
with
the
up-to-date
regulations
are
now
12
instead
of
the
initial
six
points.
T
T
T
As
a
result
of
common
experiences
between
the
town
and
the
city
for
building
permit
applications
and
construction
inspections,
it
became
clear
that
additional
clarification
was
needed,
especially
for
criteria
of
what
constitutes
a
major
renovation,
which
is
one
of
the
points
or
one
of
the
types
of
permits
that
would
trigger
requirements
of
the
iecs.
T
We
worked
together
to
clarify
definitions
for
floor
Area,
Heating,
plant
and
major
renovation.
We
also
made
a
revision
to
the
criteria
of
acceptance
for
op1
development
density
by
adding
sleeping
units
to
the
items
allowed
for
calculation.
This
essentially
provided
for
dormitories
to
be
included
in
calculations
for
development
density,
which
corrected
a
previous
oversight.
T
The
third
amendment
is
a
revision
to
the
criteria
of
acceptance
for
op3
electric
vehicle
parking
spaces.
This
would
increase
the
number
of
points
available
for
op3
from
1
to
2
and
make
it
easier
for
the
applicant
to
obtain
those
points,
essentially
about
the
same
number
of
EV
Chargers.
That
would
earn.
One
point
today
will
earn
two
points
in
2023..
T
G
A
Thank
you
rather
for
joining
us
and
now
we'll
turn
to
controller's
report
speech.
There.
T
So
I
have
a
couple
brief
comments.
Tonight.
I
won't
go
into
a
lot
of
detail,
but
we're
already
starting
our
second
month
in.
T
A
Here
but
so
we're
doing
a
lot
of
accounting
activity
for
2022.
A
T
We
are
working
very
hard
to
do
main
differences
there,
so
we're
doing
that.
In
addition,
we
have
our
bond
issuance
activity
past
delaying
of
tax
billing
and
collection
of
the
course.
T
Obviously,
it
was
still
looking
at
the
economic
situation.
Reflection
is
kind
of
here
and
on
the
horizon,
we're
worried
about
that.
We
look
forward
with
our.
A
Finances
we
want
to
be
careful
as
we
work
through
0.13
inflation,
still,
obviously,
a
big
Contractors,
Supply
Chain
and
a
few
staffing
issues.
All
those
are
impacting
the
operations.
D
T
All
costs
for
City
operations
that
are
becoming
higher
as
we
look
forward
to
20.3
one
of
the
bright
news
very.
A
T
But
we
had
collected
today,
17
million
419
000,
so
about
11
increased.
T
We
did
increase
our
estimate
in
2023.
A
And
that
estimated
about
17
million
108.
So
if
everything
worked
out
again
we'll
have
to
see
you
know,
repression
might
impact
our
collections
here,
but
the.
I
T
We
had
a
longer
agreement
outstanding,
those
we
were
able
to
resolve.
A
That
I
was
saying
contract
for
2020.
It
was
a.
T
Salaries
were
a
result
of
that
contract
and
they
were
all
posted.
A
T
Percent,
so
for
the
year
the
CPI
is
at
eight
percent
or
20.2
my
one
hand,
that's
good
for
our
mou.
A
With
Cornell,
because
it's
granted
minus
Epi
so
that
will.
A
It
at
every
opportunity
that
we
have
to
make
them
even
on,
and
even
though
most
of
our
visitors
are
also
coming
higher
than
so.
A
A
Rates
for
the
short
short
terms,
so
these
during
2023
The
Gravely
through
prior
to
2024,
and
we're
hoping
at
that
point
that
they'll
be
coming
back.
It
will
definitely
need
an
higher
interest
experience
for
us,
even
when
our
good,
our
good
reading,
that
we
have,
which.
C
G
Significant
amount
of
back
pay
that
we
paid
the
police
officers
from
those
years
of
no
contract
did
we
take
care
of.
A
March
or
so
yeah
definitely.
T
I
T
There
would
be
some
increase,
but
various
things
during
that
period
of
time
would
eat
away.
So.
A
D
A
During
the
year
as
well,
so
if
we
can't
afford
a
major
cash,
we
have
to
go
out
and
borrow
those
funds,
and
so
that's
what
we're
actually
selling
those
someone's
going
to
buy
those
and
then
we
will
have
them
waiting
on
them
to
the
proteins
will
come
into
the
cities
and
we
can
on
those
those
projects
that
you
approved,
that
we
can't
pay
cash
for.
A
Thank
you.
Any
other
questions
received
sure
I
realized
that
one
of
our
previous
conversations
we
had
discussed
having
a
presentation
by
the
healthcare
Consortium
which
I
believe
you're
a
member,
I,
guess
I'm
looking
to
members
of
CA,
will
we
be
able
to
have
a
presentation
to
discuss
the
various
of
her
options
that
are
being
offered
to
staff,
because
I
think
there's
a
lot
of
confusion
around
the
healthcare
options.
A
Thank
you
sure.
Okay,
thank
you.
Thank
you,
Stephen.
Thank
you
for
that
question.
So
we're
gonna
carry
that
message
back
to
Chairman
for
a
presentation.
Okay,
any
other
all
right.
Thank
you
very
much.
G
A
Sure
and
I'll
just
clarify
the
clerk's
office
was
closed
today
through
Friday
because
of
Staffing
work
not
available
to
to
work
but
yeah.
Thank
you
for
erasing
them.
Perhaps
other
liaison
reports,
Maybe.
E
Below
it's
been
exciting
working
with
Southside
Community
Center.
They
got
a
lot
of
things
coming
up.
I
think
this.
E
Was
woke
up
another
two
to
the
birthdays
is
this
month
right
hope
I
got
that
right.
Also,
they
have
a
whole
lot
of
other
events
coming
up,
that's
going
to
be
powerful
and.
F
Amazing
they're
doing
a
lot
of
building
a
lot
of
talking
a
lot
of
working
together
to
do
some.
E
E
Saying
we
and
I
keep
forgetting
that
I'm,
not
on
the
board
I'm
a
ladies
liaison,
so
I
wind
up,
jumping
in
all
their
board
memes,
so
they
have
a
lot
going
on.
They
real
appreciative
of
the
city.
E
We
just
sat
down
and
we're
going
to
be
doing
this
week,
we'll
be
meeting
Siobhan,
myself,
Mary
and
Kayla
to
begin
to
do
antenna
with
the
ipd,
the
board
of
directors
and
also
the
staff
of
Southside.
So
these
are
some
of
our
momentum
ones,
starting
to.
E
A
Missed
trips
have
been
more
about
convenience
issues
than
travel
shortages,
even
though
we
also
have
a
dark
shirt
right,
the
close
fulfillment
of
American
race,
so
they're,
finally,
being
like
the
expected
number
of
hospitalized
and
to
reference
again,
the
election
Mobility
grants
I
mentioned
Everyone
likes
with
epi
their
abortion
was
funding
of
all
demand
service
for,
and
we
try
to
try
on
this
and
tried
a
couple
years
ago
in
a
city
somewhere
or
on
demand.
Trying
to
Service
and
some
parts
of
the
class
based
on
Metric
is.
B
No
longer
the
liaison
to
the
impc,
but
I
just
want
to
make
sure
to
point
everyone's
attention
to
the
email
that
I
went
around
earlier
today
regarding
rent
house
and
408
North
Saint
Louis
Street.
This
is
the
house
that
is
now
owned
by
the
county
that
was
originally
purchased.
To
put
some
thoughts
about
putting
facility
now
and
now
is
being
proposed
by
the
county
deconstructed
and
where
what
I
understand
is
how
do
you
say?
Maybe
only
about
six
of
them,
something
like
that.
B
So
this
is
a
something
that
I
several
of
us
are
concerned
about
and
really
oppose.
This
idea
and
I
think
that
letter
will
be
circulated
soon
from
a
council's
signature
to
our
all
these
becoming
legislature.
A
G
A
Q
F
A
Move
along,
thank
you
for
that.
Okay,
just
unofficially,
as
you
well
at
the
Wastewater
achievement
plan,
we
have
had
a
vacant
chief
operator
position.
A
We
ended
up
bringing
an
outside
consultant
room
to
basically
run
our
resources
in
order
to
be
able
to
provide
the
funding
bring
in
the
canvan
group
to
operator
plan.
We
had
I
think
four
retirements
at
a
plant
that
are
happening
this
month.
So
at
this
month's
SJC
meeting
we
will
be
talking
about
staffing
issues
at
wastewater
treatment.
A
D
B
Know
just
just
one
quick
Point
earlier
when
the
Caitlin
sister
said
to
me:
if
someone's
current
expires,
they
can
remain
in
the
scene,
and
so
we
find
a
reappointment
so
make
sure
people
understand
yeah
and
hopefully
we
will
quickly
get
to
it.
A
All
right
is
there
a
report
from
City
attorney.
A
Thank
you
so
could
I
have
a
motion
to
move
into
executive
session
to
discuss
pending
litigation.
The
executive
session
will
be
at
your
City
attorney
will
have
provided
by.
A
C
A
C
H
A
A
A
T
B
That's
like
the
the
pollution.
A
A
There
was
no
cost,
really
I
mean
anything
else,
so
so
they
were
just
giving
away
Healthcare
but
then,
and
now
all
especially
drinks.
Oh
yeah.
A
All
right,
let's
it's
pretty
crazy
and
it's
like.
T
H
H
D
A
So
yeah
Consortium
third
party
kind
of
algorithm,
so
I
tell
us.
You
can't
make
their
big
profit
margin
on
us
because
we're
just
taking
that
out
of
the
equation.
So
we
just
we
just
kind
of
directed
them
directly
and
so
there's
an
administrative
charge.
Most
of
our
costs
are
just
different,
Healthcare
things
yeah.
T
Hello,
the
only
thing
you
put
out
a
you
know
some
money
to.
H
A
So
it
first
is
there
a
motion
to
eggs
and
executive
sessions
or
hang
set
in
Epiphany
all
in
favor
of
exiting
and
that
passes
nine
zero.
Okay,
thank
you!
So,
as
indicated
we
are
returning
to
open
session.
We
have
a
resolution
to
be
voted
on
when
someone
like
to
read
the
resolution
or
hey
resolution
of
authorizing
and
improving
and
settlement
agreement
to
an
action
relating
to
the
opioid
crisis,
whereas
it's
the
national
certain
time
joined
with
many
other
Municipality.
A
G
A
A
Is
there
now
a
mission
to
move
into
executive
session
to
discuss
the
employment
history
of
a
particular
person?
Cynthia
I
have
a
point
of
information
or
verification
that
I
don't
know.
If
that's
the
time
for
this
prior.
A
Lot
of
discuss
this
morning.
Well,
let
me
ask
for
a
second
on
this
executive
session
and
Jorge.
You
want
to
Second
this
okay.
Can
you
bring
your
questions
downstairs
all
those
in
favor
of
moving
into
executive
session
and
that
ass
is
nine
zero?
