A
B
A
B
Okay,
Teresa
you're
you're
not
here
for
public
comment.
Okay,
so
we
have
two
so
far
and
our
third
guess
is
just
arrived
but
nobody's
here
for
public.
A
All
right,
so
we
get
to
our
first
order
of
business,
which
is
the
action
item
we
have
and
resolutions
regarding
an
extension
for
reimagining
Ithaca
Community
Gardens.
B
Yes,
Cheryl
Swank,
the
president
of
Ithaca,
Community
Gardens,
is
here
and
Cheryl
you're
muted.
Just
so
you
know.
B
Should
I
stay
muted,
you
can,
or
are
you
you
don't
have
to
as
I've
let
the
committee
know
you've
submitted
your
extension
requests
and
they
have
that
in
their
packet
and
they're,
going
to
be
considering
a
resolution
to
extend
the
Ithaca
Community
Gardens
contract
until
September
30th
per
your
request
and
you're
here.
If
they
have
any
questions.
Thank
you.
A
D
Yeah
well,
actually,
this
week
we're
getting
our
our
compacted.
Soil
has
been
being
loosened
up
by
cuga
landscape,
and
so
the
gardens
is
going
to
be
ready
to
be
all
of
the
gardens
will
be
open
to
gardening
by
the
end
of
this
month.
So
we're
very
happy
because
it's
working.
D
Has-
and
it
looks
really
good
what
they're
being
able
to
do
with
our
soil.
So
that's
been
a
a
major
concern,
the
as
far
as
the
iura
project.
What
we
have
left
on
the
2020
is
our
shed
our
last
shed,
and
so
that
has
a
will
be
built
in
June
and
we
will
be
yeah
and
it'll
be
on
site
and
we'll
be
have
finished.
All
the
projects,
I
believe
on
the
2020
Grant.
B
D
Well,
yeah
I
mean
it's:
it's
we've
got
the
Arbors,
the
the
entrance
gate
Arbors
have
been
installed,
there's
a
little
work,
that's
being
completed
in
the
next
month
or
so
on
the
panels
that
close
it
off
from
deer
and
things
and
getting
our
pedestrian
gate
into
them.
Those
are
looking
really
good
and
then
the
parts
that
we're
working
on
through
the
summer
are
getting
our
sort
of
ADA
stone
dust,
Plaza
area
and
our
raised
beds
for
accessibility,
I
think
that's
basically
it
for
that
one.
Thank
you.
A
It
sounds
like
things
are
going
well
for
the
garden.
I
know
that
well,
I
would
say
I
know.
I
said
it
appeared
that
there
may
have
been
some
I
would
say
in
her
parents,
but
but
some
concerns
around
the
construction.
A
It's
happening
right,
you
know
all
around
around
you
any
issues
there
or
it
sounds
like
that.
Things
are
are
going
to
be
proceeding
here
and
the
public
will
be
able
to
get
to
their
plots.
D
Yeah,
the
they
have
done
their
first
layer
of
Paving
on
the
road
and
they're
finishing
up
some
of
the
and
curving
and
sidewalks,
mostly
there's
a
little
bit
of
detail,
work
still
to
be
finished,
I
think
here
in
the
next
month
or
so,
but
there
is
there's
parking
available.
They
will
be
marking
handicapped
spots
in
front
of
our
entrance
gate.
I
would
imagine
once
they
put
the
second
layer
of
Paving
down
they're
working
actively
out
there
on
the
both
finishing
up
details
on
the
roadway
and
because
they
have
a
department.
D
Building
that
is
beginning.
I
may
even
be
beginning
to
be
occupied
the
the
affordable
housing
on
at
the
corner
with
third
and
but
they
do.
There
are
a
couple
outstanding
things
they
have.
Some
of
them
are
not
under
their
control.
Exactly
one
of
them
is,
and
that's
the
when
they
did
the
work
on
our
railroad
side,
Garden
on
the
west
fence
nearest
the
railroad,
the
storm
drain.
D
So
we
have
to
block
off
a
portion
of
our
pathway
on
the
inside
of
the
fence
to
so
the
children
and
nobody
slips
under
the
fence
into
the
storm
terrain
area,
storm
water,
it's
a
city,
storm
water,
pipe
comes
out
near
there,
but
on
and
on
the
highway
side
they
haven't
been
able
to
finish
installation
of
we
have
a
there's
a
highway,
a
DOT
fence,
but
that's
supposed
to
come
down
and
then
finish
our
eight
foot,
deer
protection
fence
along
there,
but
they're
waiting
to
do
the
land.
D
That's
all
going
to
go
with
Landscaping
on
that
side,
which
they
may
have
actually
some
I.
Somebody
told
me
from
there
that
they
have
actually
finally
got
dot
acts
for
the
break-in
access
at
5th
Street.
D
If
that's
the
case,
then
I
would
expect
well
I
I
would
maybe
by
next
year
they
will
have
the
Landscaping
in
at
some
points
along
there
in
our
new
in
our
fence
fully
established
there,
but
for
now
we're
putting
up
or
re
refurbishing
our
extensions
on
the
dots
fencing
to
put
up
deer
higher
fish
line,
deer
barrier
which
we
had
done
before.
A
Okay,
any
well
first,
let's
note
that
member
osirock
joined
the
meeting
and
approximately
8
38
A.M
any
questions
from
committee
members.
A
So
we'll
go
on
to
our
resolution.
We'll
know
that
this
is
the
second
requested.
120-Day
extension.
The
first
was
excuse
me.
Excuse
me,
was
granted
by
director
Nelson.
This
one
would
be
an
extension
lasting
until
approximately
September.
B
D
A
D
B
Yes,
yes,
Kurt
Parrish
procurement
coordinator
from
tcat
is
here
to
answer
any
questions
that
we
may
have.
A
C
I'd
like
to
looks
like
transparency
is
not
everybody
know
that
my
agency
provides
funding
to
pcapp
for
a
variety
of
programs.
The
agency
I
work
for
the
Epica
pumpkins
County
transportation
Council.
C
A
All
right
Kurt,
if
you
want
to
anything
to
say
about
this
project
and
how
things
are
going.
E
E
Well,
not
older
shelters,
but
some
of
the
other
shelters
that
are
I
want
to
say,
odd,
shaped
and
right
now
we
do
have
just
Ray
Davis
working
on
it
or
amenities
he's
the
one
that
usually
see
out
there.
You
know
fixing
the
glass
in
the
shelters
so
that
this
partially
the
reason
we're
asking
for
the
extension
right
now
is
just
we
got
him
working
on
it
and
then,
with
the
stuff
we're
working
with
with
the
on
the
county.
A
I
did
a
question
in
the
letter
that
you
had
sent
to
us.
It
talks
about
the
hiring
of
staff
and
quote
due
to
financial
constraints
brought
on
by
findings
in
the
last
FTA
triennial
for
Thomas
County,
I
didn't
unders,
quite
understand
what
that
was
referring
to
so.
E
So
we
had
to
watch
what
we
have
so
hiring
like
like
McPherson's
or
an
offside
company
to
come
in
and
install
these
lights
on
some
of
them.
It's
going
to
be
a
little
bit
tougher
right
now
versus
having
Ray
Davis.
Who
knows
how
to
do
it?
Be
able
to
actually
do
it
himself
and
we
already
he's
in-house
and
paid
for
so
it'd
be
quicker
to
hire
out,
but
with
the
money
constraints
right
now
is
not
100
feasible.
To
do
such.
F
C
The
triennial
is
an
audit
that
happens
every
three
years
by
Federal,
Transit
Administration,
and
it
took
place
earlier
this
year
and
or
last
year
and
anyway,
there
were
a
number
of
findings
that
that
they
made
until
the
result.
You
know
their
stick
is
to
hold
the
money
and
that's
what
what's
going
on.
So
you
can't
do
drawdowns
of
Federal
Transit
money
until
those
things
are
resolved,
I
mean
they're.
I
know,
t-cat
is
working
diligently
to
resolve
all
those
and
get
the
triennial
completed,
but
it
creates
a
hardship
in
that
time
period.
A
B
Just
one
note:
it's
more
than
120
days,
there's
us
going
to
the
end
of
October,
so
there's
yeah.
C
I
have
some
questions
so
Kurt
just
verify.
So
you
received
all
the
hardware.
C
So
at
this
point
the
issue
is
one
of
of
capacity
manpower
to
to
install
the
the
hardware
and
received
correct
the.
E
Only
Hardware
we're
waiting
on
is
the
retrofit
retrofit
brackets
that
we
got
other
than
that.
Everything
else
is
just
got
received
in
I,
say
one
week
ago,
two
weeks
ago,
I
have
a
look
at
the
paperwork
it
was.
It
was
the
very
beginning
of
April
when
we
got
our
last
ones
in
Russ
is
just
waiting
on
Ray.
You
know
having
time
to
start
getting
installations
done
so
he's
going
to
try
to
get
as
much
done
this
summer.
When
you
know,
college
is
not
in
session
everything's
going
on,
but.
C
A
All
right,
so
this
extension
will
go
through
the
to
October
31
2023,
see
if.
G
B
This
I'm,
sorry,
let
me
let
me
have
a
look
at
the.
There
is
a
120
day.
Extension
mentioned
that
they
received
initially,
so
does
the
resolution
I'm
I'm,
looking
at
the
let's
see
one
two,
the
second
resolution
from
the
bot
or
the
second,
whereas
from
the
bottom
says
in
the
letter
dated
March
23
tcat,
requested
a
further
extension
to
October
31..
Is
there
another
reference
to
120
days
that
I'm
not
seeing.
A
Way
it
is
okay
yeah
because
it
does
have
the
dates
but
yeah.
It
does
have
the
number
of
days.
Okay,
okay,
I,
moved
moved
by
Steve
I'll.
Second,
any
further,
no
further
questions;
okay,
all
in
favor
improving
resolution,
all
right,
all
right.
Okay,
it's
scary!
As
you
know,
all
right.
Well,
thank
you
Kurt
for
joining
us
this
morning.
C
A
A
A
All
right,
so
the
next
item
on
the
agenda
is
the
the
draft
action
plan
which
the
Board
of
the
IRA
approved
to
It
Center
packet,
the
quantity
project.
It
is
different
from
what
we
built
around
there
were
some
changes
made
in
this.
We
discuss
the
the
Committees
make
the
recommendations,
but
the
final
amounts
are
determined
at
the
board
meeting,
certainly
based
on
the
recommendations
of
the
committee.
A
But
since
there
are,
you
know
two
committees,
the
Economic
Development
and
our
committee
make
the
recommendations.
The
board
also
has
the
thought
you
know
the
board
has
the
final
say.
A
So
at
least
anything
you
wanted
to
note
on
this
picture.
I
know
Steve
had
a
question
around
immigrant
services,
but
I
don't
know
if
you
want
to
just.
B
So
some
of
the
changes
that
were
made
was
in
the
Housing
section,
Sierra
Street.
There
was
some
rearrangement,
so
the
ni
committee
had
recommended
about
10
000
more
in
the
homeowner
rehab
category
for
inhs
and
after
discussion
with
inhs.
The
board
decided
to
allocate
the
full
amount
for
Sears
street
instead
and
reduce
the
homeowner
rehab
by
about
nine
thousand
dollars.
So
homeowner
rehab
will
still
be
able
to
do
six
rehabs.
With
this
funding.
B
Their
inhs
expressed
that
they're
very
happy
with
the
funding
configuration
that
they
that
Ira
landed
on
infs
is
homeowner.
Rehab
is
going
to
be
funded
exclusively,
as
you
were,
recommended
by
cdbg,
which
is
much
more
flexible
for
them,
and
normally
they
do
do
five
to
six
rehabs
per
year.
So
they're
going
to
be
able
to
stay
on
target
with
what
they've
done
in
the
past
and
Sierra.
The
Sierra
Street
project
then
won't
be
scaled
they'll,
be
able
to
use
a
full
amount
for
materials
and
such
that
they
may
need
to
complete
that
project.
B
B
Public
Services
is
where
you'll
see
the
most
change,
so,
instead
of
funding
all
of
the
projects
at
a
small
amount,
oar's
project
was
decided
not
to
be
funded
this
year.
Part
of
the
reason
being
that
when
we
reached
out
to
them
to
ask
them
how
they
would
utilize
scaled
funding
or
what
their
preferences
would
be,
they
have
already
arranged
my
understanding
is:
they
have
already
arranged
for
the
training
portion,
training
providers
in
the
community
and
staff
members
to
understand
more
about
human
trafficking.
B
However,
if
funds
are
used
to
provide
that
training,
there
are
no
actual
LMI
beneficiaries
from
the
training,
so
we
need
to
be
able
to
show
actual
beneficiaries,
so
their
plans
are
not
kind
of
congruent
with
what
the
funding
is
is
compliant
for
they
can
apply
in
future
years.
I'd
be
happy
to
have
a
conversation
with
their
executive
director
about
that.
There
are
also
some
other
questions
about
their
application.
They
did
not
use
the
the
Excel
sheet.
B
That's
in
the
application
to
help
us
understand
kind
of
all
of
the
matching
funds
and
such
that
might
be
available.
That
was
another
factor,
and
there
was
some
discussion,
I
believe
about
just
some
questions
that
didn't
get
answered
in
the
presentation.
B
So
immigrant
Services
provided
some
clarification
about
the
fact
that
they
have
seen
about
a
20
increase
or
I'm
sorry,
75
increase
in
new
arrivals
that
they
work
with,
and
the
number
of
immigrant
immigration
statuses
that
they
work
with
is
about
15,
which
every
time
there's
a
new
immigration
status
Allowed
by
a
new,
the
Biden
Administration
has
a
couple
new
Administration
immigration,
statuses
allowed
for
I,
believe
Haitians
and
Cubans
people
coming
from
certain
Latin
American
countries
and
then
I
believe
ukrainians
have
a
new
status.
B
So
every
time
there's
a
new
status,
that's
allowed.
The
ISP
staff
has
to
get
up
to
speed
on
what
all
the
what
all
the
requirements
are.
How
certain
people
of
certain
statuses
can
get
benefits
that
immigrants
of
other
statuses
cannot.
For
example,
Cubans
can
access
Public,
Services,
I'm,
sorry,
publicly
funded
benefits
that
other
immigrants
cannot.
It
requires
a
lot
of
research
and
so
on.
B
So
the
the
board
really
felt
that,
because
the
Ithaca
MSA
is
receiving
proportionally
more
immigrants
than
anywhere
else
in
the
state
because
of
the
higher
amount
of
new
arrivals
because
of
the
work
necessary
to
be
done
to
serve
the
the
participants
or
I'm
sorry
the
beneficiaries,
because
there
is
not
another
service
that
does
what
immigrant
Services
Program
does
they
decided
to
fully
fund
it
this
year,
a
place
to
stay
will
receive
half
of
the
amount
that
it
was
funded
for.
B
This
should
not
affect
the
number
of
beneficiaries,
but
it
may
affect
the
amount
of
programming
that
Catholic
Charities
is
able
to
provide
to
them
and
Michaela
the
Michaela
Court
court
right.
The
program
director
for
this
program
and
I
have
had
a
conversation
and
I
will
continue
to
look
for
other
funding
sources
that
they
might
be
able
to
access
she's.
Let
me
know
that
it
is
difficult
for
them
to
find
other
sources
to
fund
this
transitional
housing,
but
we
will.
G
And
I
do
have
a
question
so
with
the
immigrant
Services
there,
it
looks
like
that
they
had
not
spent
down
their
money
and
does
this
change
mean
that
they're
going
to
be
able
to
spend
down
the
money
or
or.
B
Thank
you
for
bringing
that
up.
That
was
actually
something
I
was
going
to
report
in
the
staff
report
section,
but
they
had
vouchered
for
their
final
7
500
dollars.
We
spoke
to
sue
about
that.
We
asked
that
question
and
they
have
she.
She
does
not
do
the
vouchering
some
programs,
they
the
program,
coordinarians
or
directors,
do
the
veteranian
themselves,
some
programs,
other
people
in
their
organization
do
so.
A
And
you'll
note,
as
I
think
we're
discussed
in
committee.
The
Village
at
Ithaca
project
was
not
funded.
The
board
thought
that
the
timeline,
particularly
for
the
the
unsecured
funds
that
I
remember
correctly,
was
425
or
475
thousand
dollars,
so
there's
still
a
lot
of
money
to
raise
and
it
was
felt
that
the
timeline
was
long
enough
that
the
village
could
come
back
next
year.
You
know
for
a
future
coming
on
a
cycle
and
Blackman
is
universal.
A
The
pre-apprenticeship
program,
the
board
I,
think
agreed
that
with
the
committee,
the
majority
committee,
the
decision
that
the
application
was
not
clear
enough
in
terms
of
beneficiaries
and
the
job
placement
numbers,
and
there
were
there-
were
questions
and
so
decided
not
to
fund
during
this
round,
with
the
possibility
that
working
with
staff
or
members
of
the
community
of
their
board,
they
could
craft
a
better
application
and
come
back
in
the
future
year.
A
B
A
B
Between
that
time
too,
there
will
be
a
30-day
public
comment
period
that
I
believe
opens
on
April
25th
and
in
May.
The
planning
and
economic
development
committee
of
the
common
Council
will
hold
a
public
hearings
or
second
public
hearing
where
members
of
the
community,
if
they
they
have
comments
or
concerns
or
just
or
want
to
express
that
they
support
the
plan
can
come
forward
and
make
comments
at
that
time.
So
petc
also
discusses
The
Plan
before
they
recommend
it
to
Common
Council.
F
I
just
was
wondering
what
is
the
normal
cycle
uncommon
council?
Do
they
having
not
gone
through
the
materials
or
interviews
with
people
in
the
way
that
IUI
has?
What
is
the
usual
pattern
of
approval.
B
So
normally
because
it
goes
to
pedc,
First
and
pedc
at
that
committee
level,
if
they,
if
there
are
concerns
they
would
normally
be
brought
up,
then
during
my
time
at
Ira,
the
common
Council
often
has
questions
about.
You
know
certain
projects
or
may
may
want
to
understand
the
process
more.
You
know
such
as
the
kinds
of
questions
that
that
you
all
might
ask
like.
Why
was
this
one
funded?
What
you
know,
how
will
scaling
affect
this
project?
B
Normally,
it's
it
has
been
adopted
without
I
would
say
without
fairly
smoothly.
Nels
has
let
me
know
that
it
has
not
always
been
that
way
that
there
have
been
times
that
on
the
floor,
common
Council
have
members
have
requested
changes,
and
the
common
Council
has
debated
that,
so
that
is
also
a
possibility.
B
What
is
a
little
tricky
from
our
end
is
that
we
do
need
to
submit
the
finalized
version
to
HUD
by
June
15th.
That's
a
statutory
requirement.
We
do
not
have
wiggle
room
there,
so
common
Council
would
need
to
resolve
any
issues
that,
in
that
same
meeting
they
wouldn't
be
able
to,
for,
for
example,
study
it
and
come
back
at
the
at
the
next
month's
meeting,
but
normally
with
some
questions
and
clarifications.
F
So
somebody
from
the
I'm
learning
board
who's
to
that
planning
meeting
ahead
of
time
to
answer
questions
when.
B
That
meeting
happens,
I
normally
go
to
that.
To
that
hearing
sometimes
Nels
is
there
as
well
really
depends.
But
yes,
it
would
be
one
of
us.
Normally
the
board
members
don't
attend,
so
they
can.
A
Any
other
questions
on
the
action
plan
all
right
move
on
to
the
next
item
on
our
agenda,
and
this
is
special
funding
and
special
home
funding.
Through
the
American
Rescue
plan,
the
city
of
Ithaca
will
receive
approximately
1.2
million
dollars
to
address
homelessness.
So
what
we
have
in
the
packet
is
the
executive
summary
of
the
plan.
The
full
plan
could
be
found.
There's
a
link
on
the
agenda
for
the
pool
plan.
A
B
So
I'm
sorry,
is
there
there's
a
beeping
happening,
I,
don't
know
where
it's
coming
from.
If
it's
on
my
end
or.
B
I've
heard
in
the
past
home
ARP
funding
is
a
new
stream
of
funding
that
that
got
approved
through
the
American
Rescue
plan.
It
is
aimed
at
reducing
homelessness
and
reducing
housing
instability.
This
because
it's
a
new
program
that
kind
of
involves,
even
though
it's
technically
or
in
in
its
title,
is
home
funding.
It
does
not
follow
the
regulations
and
guidelines
of
the
home
funding
that
that
we
all
know
and
work
with
to
provide
affordable
housing.
B
Normally
home
funding
does
not
specifically
work
to
end
homelessness,
so
there's
there's
components
of
a
variety
of
different
HUD
programs,
namely
the
emergency
shelter
grant
program
and
home
combined
in
this
new
stream.
So
there's
a
lot
of
getting
up
to
speed
in
understanding
how
the
regulations
work
to
be
able
to
create
this
allocation
plan,
we're
very
fortunate
to
receive
some
excellent
technical
assistance
from
from
HUD,
but
they
subcontracted
contracted
out
to
various
Consulting
companies
and
after
we
looked
through
all
the
data
spoke
to
stakeholders
and
so
on.
B
So
there
was
a
lot
of
comment
among
stakeholders
that
in
the
past
past
early
part
of
the
pandemic,
there
were
some
housing
rental
assistance
subsidies
available
to
people,
but
they
did
not
come
with
the
Supportive
Services
that
people
may
have
needed
to
remain
stably
housed.
B
So
stakeholders
really
wanted
to
commented
that
that
was
a
lack
that
made
that
situation
either
less
effective
than
it
could
have
been,
or
you
know,
put
people
through
a
process
that
ultimately
was
not
successful
for
them,
so
that
that
is
one
strategy
to
address
that
by
providing
Supportive,
Services
and
rental
assistance
at
the
same
time,
and
then
the
second
part
of
the
home
ARP
strategy
that
we've
developed
is
really
to
address
the
fact
that
32,
according
to
COC
data,
32
percent
of
people
who
exited
the
homeless
response
system,
meaning
they
got
into
permanent
housing,
returned
within
24
months,
according
to
the
most
recent
data,
previous
data,
to
that
it
was
not
as
high
as
32
percent.
B
So
that's
a
huge
number.
That's
a
third
of
the
people
who
are
getting
housed
are
not
able
to
remain
in
housing.
So
the
other
strategy
is
to
support
people
who
have
received
any
kind
of
either
emergency
assistance
or
any
type
of
assistance
to
help
prevent
eviction
to
help
smooth
away
when
they
are
in
housing,
and
you
know
address
crises
that
might
affect
our
ability
to
pay
rent
and
things
like
that.
B
So
those
are
the
two
strategies
that
the
stakeholders,
and
after
we
analyze
all
that
data,
we
decided
that
that
would
be
the
best
use
of
funds.
There
there's
also
a
comment
that
that
people
really
wanted
to
see
more
affordable
housing
bill.
Of
course,
service
providers
see
that
as
a
huge
lack-
and
that
is
very
much
acknowledged.
However,
one
million
dollars
would
only
support
about
four
units
so
we'll
we
will
continue
with
the
strategy
of
using
the
entitlement
funding,
such
as
what
you
just
reviewed.
B
The
2023
annual
action
plan
to
continue
supporting
the
development
of
affordable
housing
and
also
New,
York,
State,
home
or
ARP
allocation
plan
allocates
I
believe
54
million
to
the
development
of
more
affordable
housing
throughout
the
state.
So
the
state
will
be
putting
more
resources
into
that
that,
hopefully
we
can
also
take
advantage
of.
A
B
Our
last
normally,
no,
there
are
not
normally
children
in
encampments
so
and
to
my
knowledge,
there
are
none
currently,
so
they
are
normally
single
adults
or
couples.
As
you
stated.
A
Is
there
an
agency,
perhaps
a
COC
who
coordinates
for
those
folks,
the
various
agencies
providing
services
and
to
help
them
maintain
housing
to
you
know
to
address
the
multiple
issues.
B
Well,
so
this
is
what
the
what
the
plan
is
hoping
to
address
that
currently,
no
there's
no
real
mechanism
to
to
provide
services
once
people
are
in
housing
unless
those
folks
themselves
identify
the
identify
a
service
provider
work
with,
so
this
funding
would
hopefully
provide
a
mechanism
to
do
that.
B
Once
people
leave
the
homeless
response
system,
the
COC
is
not
collecting.
Data
on
them
is
not.
You
know
it's
not
that
they
become
unknown
necessarily
to
the
COC,
but
they're
they're,
not
in
the
homeless
response
system.
So
it's
when
they
become
homeless
again
that
the
COC
becomes
aware
of
them.
So
this
is
to
fill
the
Gap.
How
the
Gap
will
be
filled
is
we
are,
would
solicit
applications
from
Community
providers
to
see
what
their
you
know,
who
might
have
a
plan
to
be
able
to
provide
those
services
to
fill
the
gap.
G
Isn't
it
so
if
I'm
understanding?
What's
correctly,
this
is
an
additional
1.2
million
dollars
that
the
federal
government
is
providing
to
the
city.
Yes,
over
and
above
the
one
point,
one
million
that
we
that
we
received
in
the
block
ground
is
that.
B
B
C
B
Not
there
are
only
four:
there
are
four
categories
of
compliant
uses
for
this.
For
this
funding
it
could
be
non-congregate
shelter
which
we
didn't
receive
any
applications
for
that
in
the
action
plan
it
could
be
the
development
of
affordable
parental
housing,
which
there
were
some
applications
in
the
in
the
plan.
B
The
Village
when
they
came
to
present
to
us,
talked
about
wanting
to
create
a
permanent
rental
housing,
but
in
their
application
it
also
they
were
also
thinking
of
using
it
for
I'm,
sorry
for
transitional
housing.
So
actually,
yes,
the
villages
plan
did
not
get
funded.
B
They
you
know
they
Coulda
this
I'm,
sorry
they're
their
their
proposal
for
permanent
rental
housing
would
be
a
compliant
use
of
home
Erp
funding.
However,
that
is
not
the
recommended
use,
though,
that
we
recommended
in
the
plan.
Another
compliant
use,
is
rental
assistance,
tenant-based
rental
assistance,
which
Catholic
charities
does
attendant-based
rental
assistance
programs,
as
does
learning
web,
and
the
final
compliant
use,
is
Supportive
Services,
also
capacity
building,
but
I
guess
what
I'm
trying
to
express
is
the
action
plan
received
applications
for
individual
projects?
B
What
we
need
to
do
with
the
home
ARP
plan
is
create
a
framework
we're
not
naming
individual
projects,
we're
naming
how
we
want
to
the
types
of
projects
that
we
want
to
designate
locally
as
the
most
important,
so
the
ones
that
were
designated
locally
as
most
important
were
funds
to
support
the
housing
surge
to
assist
people
who
are
living
in
encampments
to
be
housed
and
to
prevent
returns
to
homelessness
from
people
who
have
exited
homelessness
and
gotten
into
housing.
So
technically,
I
should
amend
my
answer
earlier.
B
B
C
B
A
place
to
stay
couldn't
because
of
transitional
housing,
so
only
permanent
rental
housing
or
the
other
three
types
of
compliant
uses
would
be
eligible.
B
Again,
it's
a
different
process,
so
we
I
guess
what
I
also
want
to
say
is
this
funding
can't
be
used
as
Gap
funding
to
kind
of
fill
in
other
projects?
If
the,
if
organizations
in
the
community
want
to
apply
for
this
funding,
when
we
create
the
RF
RF,
they
either
request
for
expressions
of
Interest
or
the
request
for
proposals.
B
When
we
create
that
process
they
potentially
could
apply
if
they
have
a
plan
to
either
House
people
who
have
been
persistently
homeless,
Outdoors
or
support
people
who
have
been
homeless
in
the
past
and
need
eviction,
prevention,
Services
organizations
that
have
a
plan
or
an
idea
of
how
to
do
that
could
apply
for
these
funds.
B
So
if,
for
example,
The
Village
has
an
idea
of
how
they
want
to
do
that,
they
could
apply
for
the
funds
or
we
could
solicit
a
plan
from
them
providers
that
could
potentially
do
those
types
of
projects
can
apply
once
we
get
to
that
stage.
The
process
it's
confusing.
The
process
for
home
ARP
is
different
than
the
established
process
for
the
action
plan
right
so
for
home
arp.
B
We
have
to
State
first
what
kinds
of
projects
we
are
looking
to
fund
to
meet
local
needs,
so
it's
a
little
bit
different
than
the
providers
just
coming
forward
to
us
as
they
do
in
the
action
plan.
Saying
we've
observed
these
needs
or
we
have
a
program
that
we
feel
like
is
creating
needs
and
we
want
to
apply
for
funding.
First,
we
have
to
State
through
our
framework
plan,
which
this
is
what
kinds
of
projects
we
feel
like
are
most
appropriate
for
the
community.
B
C
To
realize
that
not
start
a
program
that
is
going
to
be
necessarily
depending
on
stage.
G
C
B
And
also
this,
this
funding
does
go,
have
a
much
longer
timeline
than
our
usual
entitlement
funding.
This
funding
can
be
utilized
through
March
20
or
September
20th
2030.
But
yes,
the
emphasis
is
on
this
is
one-time
funding.
Hud
has
never,
to
my
knowledge,
had
an
initiative
that
is
specifically
targeted
towards
reduction
of
homelessness
and
housing
instability
only,
which
is
what
this
funding
is
meant
to
do
and
I
mean.
B
We
don't
know
at
this
point
whether
you
know
at
the
end
of
20
30,
if
HUD
will
analyze
and
decide
that
this
was
an
effective
program
and
they
want
to
extend
it.
I
mean
I,
think
that
would
take
an
act
of
Congress,
obviously
to
allocate
more
funding
for
it.
But,
yes,
it
is
one
time
funding,
but
it
has
a
long
timeline.
B
I
think
that
would
be
the
preference
to
do
that,
because
what
we
would
ideally,
what
we
would
like
to
do
is
program
it
as
quickly
as
possible
to
get
it
out
into
the
community
and
start
working
much
like
cdb
I'm,
expecting
that,
like
the
cdbg
CB
funding
that
we
received,
some
projects
may
have
some
money
left
over
or
need
some
reprogramming,
or
something
like
that.
So
I
think
it
would
be
better
to
kind
of
deal
with
that
as
it
comes
along
than
have
multiple
kind
of
funding
rounds.
B
I
think
administratively,
that
becomes
very
burdensome
and
also
for
the
service
writers
themselves
to
have
adequate
funds
to
access
to
be
able
to
implement
their
program
as
quickly
as
possible.
It
would
be
most
useful
to
allocate
it
in
one
Fell
Swoop.
If
we
can
I
will
say
that
there
are
a
couple
potential
barriers
to
that,
and
one
is
that,
as
of
the
date
that
I
submitted
this,
this
plan,
which
was
I
submitted
on
March
27th
HUD
not
released,
has
not
released
implementation
guidance
yet,
which
is
very
difficult.
It's
very
difficult
to
plan.
B
You
know
how
to
you
know
getting
it
out
in
the
community
when
we
don't
have
information
about
what
HUD
requires
in
terms
of
documentation
in
terms
of
ensuring
you
know
proper
process.
We
do
know
that
we're
going
to
need
to
develop
a
policies
and
procedures
manual
for
this.
For
this
project,
which
again
HUD,
has
not
released
guidance
on
how
to
do
that
or
what
they're
looking
for
and
that.
So
that
is
something
that
could
be
a
real
barrier.
B
We
want
to
implement
the
funding
as
soon
as
possible
to
be
working
in
conjunction
with
the
coc's
recommended
home
together
tonkin's
project,
the
Housing
search,
but
we
are,
you
know,
had
all
communities
that
I'm
aware
of
that
have
submitted
plans
or
sort
of
at
a
standstill
until
HUD
releases,
more
information
on
how
to
use
the
I
will
say
that
I
applied
for-
and
we
did
receive
permission
to,
that
HUD
will
fund
technical
assistance
for
us
for
the
implementation
phase,
so
I'm
very
excited
about
that.
C
C
A
And
we
also
note
that
some
of
this
money
is
auditorious
Administration,
so
the
whole
1.2
will
not
be
going
to
projects
right.
The
agency
will
get
funds
for
administration,
that's
Shane,.
F
B
Well,
yes,
and
no
we're
I,
don't
anticipate
that
the
administrative
line
would
change.
But
what
is
good
is
that
we
qualified
our
application
for
the
technical
assistance
was
was
accepted.
So
HUD
will
provide
that
to
us
through
a
consultant.
We
do
not
have
to
pay
for
that.
F
The
general
Spirit
of
the
sort
of
the
ancillary
support
services
and
things
of
the
crucial
and
I
was
reflecting
on
listening
to
the
application
proposers
for
our
other
process
and
how
many
of
them
are
dealing
with
folks
that
are
in
really
crisis
mode
in
their
lives,
either
through
addiction,
mental
health,
other
socio-factors.
We
don't
know
about,
and
so
I
think
the
Supportive
Services
piece.
F
I
would
really
think
it
would
be
a
valuable
to
figure
out
how
to
use
the
money
for
training
such
that
it
might
end
up
having
a
lasting
effect
on
community
services.
So
just
an
example
like
we
heard
from
people,
you
know
who
worked
at
reuse
or
historic
Ithaca,
who
basically
were
engaging
in
totally
untrained
therapeutic
practices
to
support
their
clients,
and
if
we
could
figure
out
how
to
use
the
funding
for
training
and
how
that
be
a
legitimate
use
of
the
funding,
then
maybe
people's
capacity
for
helping
folks
would
expand.
C
F
I
know
like,
for
example,
and,
and
there
are
plenty
of
reasons
we-
we
were
concerned
about
the
Orca
post
law,
but
to
specifically
make
it
unqualified
on
account
of
training.
It
makes
sense
under
that
funding,
but
if
we
could
make
sure
that
the
language
that
we
use
involves
training
as
a
feature
so
that
we
could
perhaps
improve
our
Collective
capacity,
that
might
have
a
longer
run
effect
Beyond
because
the
money
is
so
limited.
So
that
was
just
my
thinking.
Well,.
B
That,
actually,
that
was
a
a
question
that
I
created
a
survey
for
stakeholders
to
ask
whether
or
not
they
felt
that
an
important
use
of
Home
ARP
funding
would
be
capacity
building,
which
could
include
training,
and
there
were
overwhelming
responses
to
positively
to
that.
B
So
that's
why
we
allocated
the
maximum
that
we
could
five
percent
of
the
total
award,
which
ends
up
being
sixty
thousand
dollars
to
capacity
building,
so
that
can
involve
a
number
of
different
types
of
activities,
but
training
is
a
compliant
use
and
so
again,
if
we
want
to
solicit
a
trainer
or
if
there
is
a
community
organization
that
has
an
idea
of
what
kinds
of
training
they
would
like
to
provide.
That
is
a
compliant
use
and
we
can
designate
funding
up
to
sixty
thousand
dollars.
For
that.
F
B
F
C
A
So
what
the
the
housing
surge
that
is
is
coming
up
and
we've
talked
about
these.
Some
of
these
phones
can
be
used
to
support
that
the
city
has
a
plan
is
to
build
the
permanent
encampment
I.
Guess
that's
the
right
word
I'm,
not
sure
that
is
that
part
of
the
housing
search
or
are
we
talking
about
something
different,
we're.
B
Talking
about
something
different,
the
the
proposal
for
a
managed
encampment
that
has
just
been
released
that
came
out
of
a
city
working
group
that
Nels
was
part
of
is
separate
from
this
effort.
It's
a
bit
confusing
because
a
lot
of
things
have
been
going
concurrently,
but
the
that
pilot
program,
which
will
go
into
effect,
I'm,
not
sure
when
it
will
go
into
effect.
B
But
the
the
plan
is
being
circulated
now
to
would
involve
relocating
people
who
are,
you
know,
have
their
camps
in
certain
parts
of
the
city,
away
from
Brinley
Street
area
over
towards
Southwest
parkmore.
That
really
does
not
involve
any
complaint
uses
of
the
home
ARP
funding,
and
you
know
when
Tides
was
being
proposed,
which
I
think
was
that
proposal
was
later
withdrawn.
They
were
looking
at
kind
of
a
tiny
home
model
which
was
not
a
compliant
use
of
Home
ARP
funds
so
separately
the
COC
created
a
a
proposal.
B
This
is
separate
from
the
management
proposal
called
home
together,
Tompkins
that
the
COC
presented
to
Ira
board
and
many
other
places
I
can
send
a
link
to
the
committee
members
after
we
get
off
the
the
call.
But
it's
the
housing
surge
is
one
of
several
strategies
that
are
contained
within
that
project.
B
This
is
one
that
we
feel
like
we
could
make
an
impact
with,
because
the
amount
of
funding
that
could
be
utilized
for
Supportive
Services
and
that
rental
assistance
could
really
help
further
that
surge.
So,
but
there
are,
there
are
a
number
of
different
plans.
This
is
not
home,
arpita's,
not
necessarily
work
or
the
funds
do
not
necessarily
support
the
managed
encampment
plan.
A
No
other
questions
at
this
time.
Anything
else
you
wanted
to
say
about
this
Anisa.
B
No
I
think
that's
it.
We
have
HUD
has
until
mid-march
to
either
approve
our
plan
or
request
modifications
and
then
they'll
have
another
30
day
if
they
do
request
modifications
we'll
have
30
days
to
make
those
changes
so
either
by
mid-march
or
sometime
in
the
summer.
We
should
know
how
HUD
feels
about
our
our
allocation
plan.
But
again
we
need
to
await
implementation
guidance
before
we
can
move
forward
with
that.
So
hopefully
there
they'll
be
releasing
that
soon.
G
Yeah
the
only
comment
that
I
have
is
it's
pretty
unfortunate
that
this
money
comes
out
after
we've
allocated
everything
for
the
funding
plan.
I
mean
it
would
have
been
nice
if
this
were
available,
when
we
were
considering
some
of
the
things
on
this
funding
plan,
because
we
could
have
people
might
have
been
able
to
prioritize
and
adjust
their
applications
so
that
they
it
would
have
fit
into
another
program.
I
mean
I'm
thinking
that
in
this
particular
case,
we've
got.
G
We
had
applications
for
actual
construction
of
housing
that
may
have
may
have
fit
into
the
guidelines
and
could
have
been
funded
through
this
plan
as
a
one-time
deal
and
that
way
the
housing
could
have
gotten
off
the
ground
and
then
other
plans
that
were
that
we
have,
we
had
applications
for
might
have
been
able
to
be
have
been
funded
and
with
an
ongoing
type
of
funding
plan,
I
mean
I,
I
mean
I'm,
not
just
I'm,
not
saying
anything
that
is,
that
can
be
changed.
B
After
the
fact,
I
could
comment
to
say
that
Jensen's,
so
our
our
I
I
think
I
acknowledge
what
you're
saying
that
our
Houma
Erp
allocation
plan
was
being
developed
during
the
same
time
as
our
2023
action
plan.
That
happened
because
the
the
funds
were
actually
released
in
2020,
not
release
the
funding
stream
was
announced
in
2021,
then
HUD
notified
Us
in
on
October,
31st,
2022
and
all
other
entire
online
communities
that
we
needed
to
submit
our
plan
for
how
we
were
going
to
use
it
by
March.
B
At
that
point,
very
few
entitlement
communities
had
submitted
plans.
No
New
York
State
entitlement
communities
had
an
approved
plan
on
October
31st
2022,
so
that
was
five
months
ago
in
the
future,
though
Steve
just
letting
you
know,
I
think
that
there
is
some
possibility
that
organizations
that
are
applying
for
Action
Plan
funding
could
develop
a
plan
to
try
to
pair
an
action
plan
project
with
a
funded
home
ARP
project
going
forward
for
the
next.
B
You
know
couple
of
years
as
we're
trying
to
develop
the
implementation
plan,
I
think
our
in
within
IRA
and
also
the
city.
We
try
to
make
use
of
leveraging.
As
much
as
possible,
we
would
like
to
potentially
do
that
and
encourage
that
among
providers,
it
remains
to
be
seen
how
HUD
will
allow
us
to
implement
these.
B
B
We
will
try
to
do
that
and
there
may
be
in
future
action
planning
years
applicants
May,
you
know,
come
forward
and
say
we.
We
have
these
other
plans
that
we
see
as
working.
You
know
pretty
seamlessly,
with
home,
Erp
and
we'd,
like
funding,
to
be
able
to
support
the
home
Erp
plan
as
well.
I,
don't
know
that
that
answers
your
concern
entirely.
Some
of
some
of
this
process
was
I
mean
most
of
the
process
was
HUD
dictated.
So
we
had
to
follow
this
new
process.
A
And
actually,
this
is
kind
of
a
related
question
who
wants?
We
have
the
guidance
from
HUD
and
we
put
out
the
requests
for
proposals.
Will
it
will?
We
then
follow
the
same
process
with
the
action
plan?
Is
that
the
proposals
will
come
to
committees?
Will
it
be
just
the
ni
committee
or
how
do
we
know
yet
how
that
process
will
look.
B
We
don't
know
yet
how
that
process
will
look.
We
have
stated
that
you
know
we
have
a
very
well
organized
and
working
system
to
to
work
through
our
action
planning
process
so
to
the
extent
that
it
makes
sense
to
implement
the
kind
of
the
the
that
same
process
for
home
arp.
We
will
do,
however.
This
is
part
of
the
reason
that
Nell
suggested
that
a
first
step
be
that
we
release
a
request
for
expressions
of
interest
from
organizations
about
whether
or
not
you
know
they
feel
that
they
have
a
plan.
B
They
could
comply
with
this,
because
we
also
know
that
the
capacity
of
our
community
providers
has
been
very
constrained
in
the
last
few
years.
There
are
really
only
a
few
providers
that
are
currently
doing
services
that
could
kind
of
probably
expand
to
Encompass.
Something,
like
you
know,
eviction
prevention.
There
are
a
few
providers
that
are
doing
services
that
could
expand
to
help
people
who
are
on
house
get
into
housing
and
help
them
stay
securely
housed.
B
So
we
have
to
understand
first
who
among
Community
providers
feels
that
they
could
undertake
this
work,
and
that's
why
one
of
the
the
methods
that
we're
thinking
of
is
doing
a
request
for
expressions
of
Interest
first
to
see
like
how
many
providers
are
are
there
out
there,
because
if
there's
only
one
or
two
that
come
forward,
perhaps
perhaps
a
strategy
could
be
to
work
with
them
to
develop
compliant
plans,
ensure
that
they
have
the
capacity
they
need
and
go
forward.
In
that
way
we
are
in
unknown
territory.
B
Initially,
I
did
think
that
we
would
go
through
a
process
that
was
very
similar
to
the
action
plan.
At
this
point,
the
best
I
can
say
is.
It
remains
to
be
seen
how
many,
how
many
organizations
really
feel
like
they
have
a
viable
plan
to
to
work
with
home
Erp.
C
A
A
We
do
have
one
project,
that's,
and
this
is
nothing
new.
The
under
the
2019
cdbgcb
activities,
you'll,
see,
project,
I,
think
a
farmers
market,
the
online
Market
discounts
I'm
still
approximately
sixteen
thousand
dollars
unspent.
B
I
will
say
they
have
submitted
their
final
voucher.
We
have
requested
some
follow-up
documentation
about
Stealth
certification
there.
They
need
to
submit
self-certification
forms
for
their
beneficiaries.
Their
staff
member
has
been
on
leave
for
since
about
the
time
that
that
she
came
to
to
speak
with
us.
So
she's
been
on
leave
for
a
couple
of
months,
she's
just
returning
now
to
work.
B
So
we've
made
that
request
of
them
and
they're
working
on
it,
but
they're,
not
at
the
point
yet
that
we
could
say
that
they're
either
finished
or
on
schedule.
Maybe
next
month.
A
I'm
sorry
I
misspoke
there
more
than
one.
No
that's
as
we
go
down,
then
so
in
2021
activities
we'll
see
that
there
are
some
other
projects
that
are
that
have
not
spent
their
money
yet.
But
it's
nothing.
B
That
we
have
here,
you
know
not
talked
about
in
the
past,
so
I
I
will
say
that
also
just
a
brief
update.
The
learning
web
has
submitted
their
first,
their
first
voucher.
They
again
they
needed
to
work
with
their
landlords
to
update
their
leases
for
their
participants,
and
there
were
some
steps
that
they
needed
to
take
before
they
could
voucher.
B
So
we
are
working
on
one
with
them
right
now,
so
you
may
see
that
that
one
change
in
the
future
and
then
the
two
others
were
the
ones
that
you
took
action
on
today.
So
so
again
we'll
see
how
they're
able
to
voucher
in
the
future,
but
that
may
change
to
a
yes
provisionally,
since
they
have
at
least
120
more
days
to
work
or
we
may
keep
it
as
a
no,
depending
on
what
we're
hearing
from
them.
A
Is
making
sufficient
progress
with
the
the
at
least
modifications
or
changes?
I
guess
to
the
leases.
B
I
would
say
that
we're
heartened
that
they
have
started
the
process.
I,
don't
know
that
we're
in
a
place
yet
to
know
whether
or
not
the
action
they're
taking
is
sufficient.
B
F
You
know
resisting
this
change
and
not
that
that's
like
all
by
itself
like
that,
okay!
Well,
we
don't
have
to
enforce
it
because
headwinds.
F
But
just
to
really
understand
what
it
is.
That
is
the
problem,
because
it
hits
resistance.
Then
it's
potentially
discriminatory,
in
which
case
like
they
might
need
some
help
from
somebody.
But
if
it's
just
that
they're
organizationally
or
bureaucratically,
the
office
hasn't
quite
gotten
to
making
the
calls
or
to
pushing
on
it.
But
it's
like.
B
We
have
been
in
communication
about
that,
and
the
the
issue
seemed
to
be
the
latter,
which
was
you
know
they
had
a
lot
of
Staff
turnover.
They
had.
You
know,
as
as
the
new
executive
director
stated
he
started
about
a
year
ago.
B
These
changes
were
presented
to
them
in
a
meeting
last
summer
and
they
felt
that
they
didn't
have
the
capacity
to
approach
their
landlords
yet,
and
so
their
deputy
director,
who
you
also
know,
is
new
to
the
organization,
had
her
first
meeting
with
a
landlord
recently
and
that
seems
to
have
been
encouraging
because
they
were
able
to
process
the
paperwork
that
is
required
of
them.
B
We
are
asking
for
a
few
clarifications
of
them
and
they
wanted
to
do
one
first
to
make
sure
that
they
were,
you
know,
had
older
decks
in
a
row.
We
thought
that
was
a
great
way
to
go
forward,
but,
yes,
we
have
communicated
with
them
throughout
this
process
and
our
understanding
was
that
they
had
not
approached
their
landlords
until
about
two
weeks
ago.
A
All
right,
no
further
questions
about
the
grant
summary
I
wanted
a
staff
report.
B
Yeah
I
think
our
main.
We
cover
some
of
the
things
that
I
was
going
to
discuss
in
our
our
staff
report
already,
but
I
think.
B
The
main
thing
that
I
wanted
to
let
people
know
is
that
Charles
payat,
our
contracts
monitor,
is
going
to
be
leaving
the
Ithaca
area,
and
that
would
be
a
gigantic
loss
to
Ira,
but
Nels
has
been
able
to
extend
an
offer
to
Charles
to
work
remotely
and
because
he
he
will,
you
know,
still
be
in
the
area,
but
not
in
Ithaca
and
he's
agreed
to
work
remotely
on
a
long
term
or
possibly
permanent
basis.
B
So
we're
very
fortunate
for
that,
and
that
is
the
main
thing
that
I
have
to
report
today.
Besides.
Besides
what
we've
discussed
otherwise.
C
G
B
The
inspections
I
have
started
doing
I,
that
that
is
something
I've
been
doing.
I
would
like
to
discuss
with
HUD
whether
or
not
we
can
subcontract
for
that.
We
brought
the
regulations
and
it
sounds
like
we
cannot
as
far
as
other
duties
that
Charles
has
yes,
we
would
need
to
find
somebody
part-time
to
do.
For
example,
the
meeting
minutes
that
Charles
does
for
Ira
and
governance
and
some
other
kind
of
In-House
stuff
that's
needed
on
site.
We
would
need
to
find
a
part-time
person
to
do
that,
but
other.
B
So
there
would
be
some
transition
of
Charles's
duties,
but
he
would
still
be
our
contracts
monitor.
He
would
still
develop
our
contracts
and
do
all
the
many
things
that
Charles
does
administratively
for
us.
A
No
further
questions
all
right.
Well,
that's
it
for
our
agenda.
We
will
make
a
motion
to
adjourn.
Second,
second,
all
right.
Thank
you.
Everyone.
Thank
you,
Teresa
for
getting
up
early
to
impress
out
early,
but
thank
you
for
your
interest
in
in
the
speed
hope
it
wasn't
too.
Dull
I
need
some.
Thank
you.
I
know
it's
very
early
in
California,
saying
oh
thanks
for
being
here
back.
