A
Great,
thank
you,
charles
okay,
so
we'll
get
started
and
hopefully
tracy
will
join
so
I'll
call
this
meeting
of
the
ira
for
july
2020
to
order,
I
think
I
think,
there's
a
couple
of
additions
to
the
agenda.
Nels
circulated
last
evening,
a
proposed
resolution
which
I
proposed
we
put
under
other
business,
maybe
as
other
business
a
and
shift
everything
else
down,
which
is
a
recognition
resolution
for
eric
rosario.
A
Is
that
acceptable
to
everybody?
Yeah
great
and
I
I'd
like
to
add,
also
shoot.
I'm
looking
at
the
wrong
agenda
so
hold
on
here
be
helpful
if
I
had
this
agenda
also
under
other
business,
I'd
like
to
make
sure
that
we
add
the
mayor's
report,
I
think
it
fell
off
this
agenda
here.
A
B
A
Yeah,
okay,
great
so
well,
I
guess
we'll
move
to
public
comment.
Charles.
What
do
we
have
for
a
comment
today?.
A
Nothing:
okay!
That's
that
so
we'll
move
right
along!
Then
we
have
review
of
the
meeting
minutes
from
june
23rd
in
the
packet,
so
anybody
would
like
to
move
those
minutes
or
any
amendments
laura
you're
moving
them.
Thank
you.
A
No
okay,
all
those
in
favor,
except
in
the
minutes
from
june
23rd,
now
great.
That
is
great,
so
that
moves
us
over
to
the
neighborhood
investment
committee.
We
have
a
couple
of
action
items
I'll
hand
it
over
to
carl.
D
Okay,
thank
you
chris.
So,
as
chris
said,
we
have
two
items
for
action
this
morning.
The
first
resolution
is
a
reprogramming
of
some
cdbg
funds
that
were
awarded
under
the
cares
act.
The
majority
of
the
funds
15
000
of
that
17
475
that
you
see
in
the
resolution,
is
from
one
project
that
was
unable
to
to
meet
their
their
goals.
D
D
One
was
oar
to
serve
their
clients.
One
was
catholic
charities
immigrant
services
program
and
then,
as
you
see
the
resolution
here,
the
downtown
ithaca
child
care
center.
D
After
a
lot
of
discussion,
our
committee
decided
that
we
felt
that
the
dicc
proposal
was
the
strongest
given
the
importance
of
child
care
to
this
community
and
to
parents
and
ensuring
that
people
could
go
back
to
work
knowing
that
their
children
were
in
a
safe
space.
D
D
And
a
part-time
staff
person
during
the
pandemic
dicc
changed
their
operations
so
that
they
limited
limit
rather
the
number
of
people
who
can
come
into
the
building,
so
parents
drop
their
children
off
right
at
the
front
of
the
building
kind
of
in
the
vestibule,
and
then
a
staff
person
walks
the
kids
back
to
the
various
classrooms.
This
will
allow
them
to
have
a
part-time
person
to
continue
to
do
that
work
and
then
keep
therefore
limiting
the
exposure
to
the
folks
inside
the
building
to
pop
to
the
possibility
of
covet.
D
So
if,
before
we
move
on
to
the
resolution
to
go
any
further
I'd
like
to
move
that
we
reprogram
the
funds
from
the
cdbg
cares
act
to
child
care,
health
and
safety
to
be
carried
out
by
the
downtown
ithaca
child
care
center.
D
Okay,
so
I'm
sorry
hit
the
wrong
button
here.
There
we
go,
so
you
can
see
in
our
results,
and
I
and
I'll
ask
this
for
nails,
but
I
think,
as
of
now,
the
17
475
dollars
is
our
best
estimate
of
the
total
amount
that
is
to
be
reprogrammed.
I
think
some
we're
not
quite
sure
of
the
exact
amount,
but
that
17475
is
the
best
estimate
to
date.
Is
that
correct,
nels.
A
G
I
support
this
enthusiastically.
We
talked
about
this
as
we
were
looking
at
the
allocation
of
funds.
We
talked
about
the
desire
to
support
organizations
if
there
was
the
possibility
of
any
additional
funds
or
reprogramming
of
funds.
So
I'm
I'm
very,
very
pleased
and,
as
carl
points
out-
and
I
completely
agree
that
as
we
come
out
of
kovid
with
a
reminder,
we
are
not
out
of
cove
yet
and
there
are
still
people
affected,
especially
families
with
young
children.
G
A
D
Our
second
item,
you
can
either
use
the
link
on
the
first
page,
the
agenda
or,
as
page
19.
D
D
But
in
in
this
case,
and
generally
in
any
case,
it's
best
to
have
everything
in
one
place
and
so
staff
put
in
sorry
when
I
say
established,
say
anissa
nels
and
if
I'm
forgetting
anyone
else
I'll
I'll
leave
it
to
nails
to
acknowledge
them.
Put
in
a
lot
of
work
to
put
this
all
in
one
document,
so
that
our
our
program,
our
providers,
can
have
it
all
all
the
information
there.
D
So
I
would
like
to
move
that
we
adopt
the
ira,
tenant-based
rental
assistance
policies
and
procedures.
Handbook
goes
into
effect
immediately
upon
our
vote.
D
C
D
A
You
know,
I
don't
know
how
often
these
regulations
change,
and
you
know
the
risk
to
us
of
having
put
in
some
put
into
a
document
that
we
then
provided
to
sub
recipients,
something
that
then
becomes
out
of
date
and
then
they're
relying
on
this
as
opposed
to
relying
on
the
actual
regulations.
So
that
would
be
my
one
concern.
So
I
don't
know
if
you
want
to
comment
on
that.
F
The
regulations
do
not
change
very
often
the
actual
regulations,
the
interpretation
and
the
guidance
from
hud
does
evolve
over
time,
and
we
have
two
basic
tenant-based
rental
assistance
categories
that
we
have
been
providing
funding
for.
One
is
the
security
deposit
assistance,
security
deposit
only
and
the
other
one
is
where
there's
rental
assistance
and
that's
been
with
the
learning
web
there
may
have
been.
I
think,
that's
primarily
been
the
learning
web.
F
We
learned
recently
that
the
home
regulations,
which
are
not
user
friendly
to
provide
to
a
a
sub
recipient,
a
grantee,
had
a
quirk
in
them
that
we
weren't,
aware
of
which
was
that
they,
the
concept
of
tenant-based
rental
assistance,
is
that
the
tenant
has
freedom
to
choose
the
apartment
of
their
choice.
Once
you
provide
the
assistance
and
once
they're
eligible
both
income
eligible
and
the
apartment
meets
minimum
quality
standards,
they
have
a
choice
of
which
apartment
to
choose.
F
We've
always
been
providing
assistance
to
the
learning
web
whereby
they
were
leasing,
properties
from
landlords
and
then
subleasing
them
to
their
clients
and
participants.
It
turns
out
that
that's
not
compliant
with
the
technical
regulations
of
home.
F
If,
if
that
client
doesn't
have
free
choice
to
choose
which
which
unit
they
want,
so
this
is
trying
to
address
and
clarify
that
to
some
degree
and
indicating
that
a
master
lease
program
is
not
eligible
under
the
home
program,
even
though
it
makes
a
lot
of
sense
in
a
lot
of
ways
to
have
a
buffer
between
the
landlord
and
the
client
when
they
don't
have
a
history,
a
rental
history,
and
we
figured
out
a
way
around
that
that
kind
of
practical
concern.
F
But
we
do
want
to
make
sure
that
that
we're
providing
guidance
that
is
you
know,
gives
gives
the
best
guidance
we
can
to
to
the
sub-recipients,
and
we
do
think
that
this
does
it.
We
also
were
told
that
hud
expects
the
community
to
have
adopted
a
set
of
policies,
not
just
referring
the
regulations.
We
always
had
a
very
kind
of
set
of
regulation
of
of
guidance
we
provided,
but
it
was
more
like
a
four-page
packet.
F
This
is
much
more
extensive
and
I
think
it's
a
better
way
to
go.
I
don't
I
wouldn't
be
surprised
if
we
had
run
across
a
need
for
an
edit
here
and
there
and
keep
an
eye
on
it,
because
it
is
very
involved
and
we
tried
not
to
go
overboard
with
mandating
things
that
were
not
required
by
the
regulations.
So
we
don't
kind
of
get
stuck
on
our
own.
F
Our
own
regulations,
because
hud
when
they
will
review
us
and
audit
us
will
look
to
say,
are
we
complying
with
the
regulations
and
are
we
also
compliant
with
the
policy
we
adopted
and
we
need
to
show
that
we're
doing
both.
So
I
think
this
is
a
good
step
forward,
but
you're
right.
We
should
keep
an
eye
on
it
and
make
sure
we
have
an
overreached
or
and-
and
we
still
we
still
reference
the
regulations
very
clearly
in
our
funding
agreements
that
they're
inc.
F
You
know
that
they
must
comply
with
the
regulations,
we
give
them
the
citations
and
then
we
provide
them
with
our
policy
and
and
this
handbook.
So
this,
I
think,
is
a
step
in
the
right
direction,
but-
and
I
did
want
to
make
sure
that
charles
gets
recognized
for
an
awful
lot
of
work.
He
did
to
pull
elements
of
it
together
and
edit.
It
he's
done
a
great
job,
pulling
that
together
and
bringing
in
the
forms
and
applications
so
yeah.
A
A
Yeah
yeah
thanks
charles,
and
that
was
a
great
explanation
for
that.
Nils
thanks
donna
has
her
hand.
I
I'm
using
a
different
gadget
that
I'm
not
used
to
so
our
sub
recipients,
the
the
tenants
or
the
and
you're
the
kate,
the
example
you
just
gave
the
intermediary
organization,
the
learning
web,
so
the
other
subrecipients,
the
people
who
actually
live
in
or
use
the
place
or
the
a
step
above
that.
E
And
the
way
I
understand
it
is
that
this,
the
organization
would
still
be
the
one
that's
paying
the
rent,
even
though
the
tenants
are
signing
the
lease
directly
with
the
apartment
owner,
correct.
F
That's
correct,
there'll,
be
a
rental
assistance
contract
in
which
there'll
be
a
commitment
to
pay
the
landlord,
and
then
there
would
be
a
lease
agreement
with
between
the
landlord
and
the
tenant
and
with
in
which
the
sub
recipient
will
provide
a
guarantee
or
be
a
cosigner.
On
that
lease
is
the
structure
we're.
D
I'll
just
say
one
thing:
one
of
the
other
advantages
of
of
compiling
everything
into
one.
You
know
policy
manual,
as
nils
indicated,
is
that
staff
discovered
that
there
was
a
slight
misunderstanding
of
the
regulations
and
were
able
to
correct
that
right.
A
Exactly
great
okay,
if
there
are
no
other
questions
or
comments,
then
I'll
look
for
a
vote,
all
those
in
favor
moving
this
forward.
This
looks
great,
that's
unanimous.
Five
to.
B
A
Excellent
okay:
is
there
a
chair
report,
carl.
A
Sorry,
I'm
using
the
clickable
thing
in
the
pdf
and
it's
not
taking
me
back
to
the
agenda,
which
is
unfortunate.
Okay,
so
then
we're
moving
to
the
economic
development
committee.
So
we
have
three
action
items
for
everybody
today
actually
well
three
action
items,
but
the
first
action
item
has
three
parts.
So
the
first
discussion
is
the
continued
discussion
of
east
hill
fire
station
urban
renewal
project,
and
you
have
three:
we
have
three
resolutions.
A
We've
got
a
resolution
declaring
ira
lead
agency
for
the
purposes
of
the
environmental
review
of
the
proposed
disposition
and
development
agreement.
I
can
never
say
disposition
and
development
agreement.
I
don't
know
why
that
is,
and
then
we've
got
a
negative
declaration
on
that
environmental
review,
and
then
we
actually
have
a
resolution
that
moves
the
draft
disposition,
development
agreement
terms
and
conditions
forward.
A
A
I'll
also
ask
nels
to
chime
in
there's,
been
a
multi-year
ongoing
process
for
the
city
to
try
to
identify
alternatives
for
rebuild
of
the
fire
station
number
two,
which
is
the
fire
stations
located
in
college
town
at
309
college
avenue,
multiple
attempts
by
the
city
to
secure
additional
locations
or
secure
rebuild
on
that
particular
site.
In
the
fall
of
last
year,
there
was
revised
rfei
that
brought
forward
two
kind
of
potential
alternatives.
A
One
alternative,
which
is
the
one
that
we're
primarily
looking
at
here,
was
essentially
the
sale
of
309
college
avenue
to
the
eligible
sponsor
in
exchange
for
receiving
from
that
same
developer,
additional
properties
elsewhere
in
college
town
that
the
city
could
then
take
ownership
of
and
then
build
a
new
fire
station
on
that
site.
A
The
alternative
was
a
proposal
from
a
different
developer
to
redevelop
the
site
at
309
college
avenue,
with
a
fire
station
on
the
first
two
floors
and
then
housing
above
that
as
a
complete
redevelopment
project
in
college
town,
the
city
last
fall
moved
forward
with
negotiating
an
option
on
the
first
scenario
and
then
brought
that
forward
to
the
ira
to
do
our
appropriate
due
diligence
on
that
as
an
urban
renewal
project,
and
that
process
has
begun
basically
back
to
a
couple
of
months
ago.
A
So
we
have
taken
a
couple
of
actions
on
that
already.
What
we
did,
what
we've
done
since
the
last
meeting
is
we
conducted
a
site
review
in
college
town
that
nells
coordinated,
which
members
of
the
city
attorney's
office,
the
fire
department,
members
of
of
this
group
and
the
edc,
and
rob
gearheart
attended
where
we
learned
more
about
the
site
constraints
at
309
college
avenue
for
the
existing
fire
station
and
then
the
benefits
therein
of
the
new
site
at
403,
elmwood
and
408
dryden
road?
It's
two
parcels.
A
A
It
is
got
some
significant
financial
benefits
to
the
city
and
certainly
has
benefits
to
the
fire
department
in
terms
of
the
advantages
presented
by
construction
of
the
new
site,
as
opposed
to
the
time
offline
that
it
would
take
to
rebuild
at
the
current
site
and
all
of
the
kind
of
downstream
impacts
of
that.
A
So
what
we're
going
to
review
today
again
is
the
three
resolutions,
so
first
declaring
ourselves
lead
agency,
so
maybe
they're
going
to
get
the
process
started.
I
will
move
that
resolution,
which
declares
ira
lead
agency
for
the
environment,
review
and
I'll
look
for
a
second,
and
then
we
can
get
to
discussion
of
that.
Thank
you
laura,
so
maybe
nells.
F
That
yeah,
the
the
seeker
law
requires
that
you,
the
environmental
review,
consider
all
the
aspects
of
the
project
and-
and
that
would
involve,
in
this
case
the
property
transfers,
as
well
as
the
construction
of
the
fire
station
at
the
new
site.
We
don't
have
all
the
information
for
the
fire
station
at
the
new
site
that
we
could
complete
the
environmental
review
for,
and,
secondly,
it's
contingent
entirely
on
the
property
transfers
being
approved.
F
So
this
approach,
we're
taking,
is
to
segment
the
environmental
review
and
have
the
ira
be
the
lead
agency
for
the
property
transfer
component
of
the
project
and
then
transfer
lead
agency
status
over
to
the
planning
board
for
the
for
the
physical
development
project.
We
have
to
be
careful
that
in
this
process
that
we're
no
less
protective
of
the
environment
in
the
environmental
review
in
this,
when
you
segment-
and
I
think
we
we-
we
have
reviewed
this
with
the
attorney's
office
and
they
support
the
segmented
approach.
But
we
do
have.
F
You
know
that
is
the
critical
piece
is
to
make
sure
we're
not
somehow
providing
some
lesser
environmental
review
so
by
segmenting
it
we're
going
to
have
and
under.
If
you
pass
this
resolution,
the
ira
will
be
the
lead
agency
for
the
property
transfer
component,
which
really
has
no
physical
aspects
to
it.
And
then
the
second
phase
would
be
the
the
planning
board
would
do
the
physical,
the
review
of
the
physical
project
and-
and
there
would
you'll
see
later
in
a
resolution.
F
If
you
continue
down
this
the
route
that
we're
taking
an
extra
precaution
to
ensure
that
we're
no
less
protective
in
the
environment
and
that
making
sure
that
the
environmental
review
does
get
completed
prior
to
transfer
of
the
fire
station
property.
To
the
sponsor,
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions
and,
and
I'm
glad
to
see
it.
Lisa
nicholas,
joined
us
who
works
with
environmental
review
each
and
every
month.
J
I
don't,
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
the
resolution
does
state
that
it's
a
segmented,
illegally
segmented
environmental
review.
A
A
Is
it
and
this
one
is
in
the
next
one
now
it's
because
this
is
the
way
it's.
G
B
J
So
if,
if
it's
okay
with
the
committee,
if
we
could
just
reword
it
to
specifically
say
you
know
it's
a
legally
segmented
environmental
review,
I
think
that's
important
to
add
it
doesn't
change
the
substance
or
or
meaning
of
the
resolution
in
any
way.
A
And
clarify
that
yeah,
maybe
like
between
the
third
and
fourth,
whereas
because
the
third
one
says:
okay,
that
the
city's
environmental
quality
reviewers
allows
for
the
ira
to
assume
lead
agency
environmental
review
and
that
the
planning
board
would
have
lead
agency
for
construction.
And
so
maybe
then,
and
whereas
some
version.
What
lisa
said.
J
I
A
J
A
Okay,
yeah
carl.
D
J
It's
actually
part
of
the
planning
and
development
board's
site
plan
review
process,
there's
a
public
hearing
as
part
of
a
legally
required
public
hearing
as
part
of
the
process,
but
the
board.
The
planning
and
development
board
holds
that
hearing
at
the
beginning
of
the
process
before
seeker.
So
seeker
doesn't
require
a
public
hearing,
but
they
hold
it
at
the
beginning
and
then
there's
opportunity,
of
course,
to
comment.
It
will
be
at
the
planning
board
for
at
least
three
months.
So
there's
public
comment
opportunity
at
every
meeting.
F
A
Yeah
and
there'll
be
more
that's
a
good
question.
Carl.
Thank
you
all
right,
charles
have
you
I
just
want
to
see
here
is
the
update
on
the
screen,
wonder
so.
No
because
this
is
a
pdf.
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
before
we
move
to
a
vote
that
we
understand
exactly
how
this,
whereas
is
being
amended,
so
I
don't
know
if
you
have
language
that
you
can
read
back.
C
A
C
Very
simple
here:
the
proposed
new
construction
of
properties
to
be
transferred
will
undergo
legally
segmented
environmental
review
school
during
the
city
site
plan
review
process.
So
that's
this
piece
right.
A
Here
right-
and
I
think
lisa
wanted
to
add-
maybe
one
extra
phrase
there,
which
is
that
is
less
protective
of
the
environment.
C
A
A
No,
all
those
in
favor,
perfect,
five,
zero,
okay!
The
next
resolution
is
then
looking
at
the
environmental
review,
you
have
the
environmental
review
form
in
your
packet.
Following
the
resolution.
I
charles.
I
will
just
note
that
it's
the
third
to
last,
whereas
that
would
need
the
same
amendments
here,
whereas
proposed
new
construction
properties
should
be
transferred,
blah
blah
blah
that
one
see
it
yeah.
A
Thank
you,
laura
yeah
nels,
maybe
I'll
just
give
you
the
floor
for
a
minute.
Just
talk
about
the
environmental
review
that
you
conducted
on
the
proposed
transfer
of
property.
F
Yes,
it
is
there
again
because
there's
no
physical
impacts
of
a
property
transfer,
which
is
this
phase
of
the
project,
we're
doing
environmental
review
on
the
full
environmental
assessment
form,
indicates
no
no
adverse
impacts
on
the
environment,
and
the
first
resolve
does
also
reiterate
some
of
that
language.
We're
looking
for
that
lisa
had
suggested
be
included
in
the
resolution,
as
it
relates
to
the
segmentation
and
the
no
less
protective
component
of
that
review.
A
Great
questions
about
the
environmental
review
that
nels
completed
in
the
environmental
assessment
form.
E
I
just
wondered:
there
was
one
thing
that
I
noticed:
no
consistency
with
community
plans
and
no
consistency
with
the
community
character.
Is
that
just
because
there
are
no
buildings
planned
yet.
F
A
Great,
thank
you
any
other
questions,
seeing
none
all
those
in
favor
of
this
resolution
that
is
unanimous,
five
zero.
Just
noting
that
the
fire
chief
has
joined
us
as
well.
A
There's
questions
as
we
move
along
here:
okay,
so
the
last
resolution
is
actually
reviewing
as
a
resolution
for
the
disposition
development
agreement,
so
kind
of
just
highlight
that
what's
in
the
resolved
here
right,
so
this
resolution
enables
the
iura
to
approve
a
disposition:
development
agreement
for
the
east
hill
fire
station
urban
renewal
project,
which
includes
the
disposition
of
39
koch
avenue
to
the
sponsor
which
is
311
ca
associates.
We
determine
them
an
eligible
sponsor
in
a
prior
action
to
facilitate
construction
of
a
new
fire
station.
A
The
key
terms
here
are:
the
transfer
is
in
compliance
with
the
option
agreement
that
was
signed
on
february
22nd
between
the
city
and
the
developer,
for
sale
of
the
property
for
5.1
million
plus
acquisition
of
adjoining
parcels
at
403,
elmwood
and
408
drive-in
road
that
there's
a
completed,
segmented,
environmental
review
before
the
transfer.
So
that's
what
we've
been
talking
about
that
would
be
conducted
by
the
planning
board
or
the
formal
proponent
of
city.
Construction
of
acquired
property,
so
should
the
fire
department
of
the
city
determine
not
to
move
forward
with
this
project?
A
The
project
would
essentially
end
and
there
would
be
no
need
for
the
second
phase
of
the
segmented
environmental
review
and
then
this
third
piece,
which
is
that,
in
the
event
the
property
of
309
college
avenue
becomes
tax
exempt
by
any
means
other
than
an
approved
pilot
from
the
tompkins
county
industrial
development
agency.
The
owner
shall
be
required
to
make
payments
equal
to
property
taxes
that
would
have
been
due.
This
requirement
shall
be
enforced
through
a
20-year
payment
in
lieu
of
taxes.
A
Agreement
that
commences
upon
the
data
transfer
of
309
college
avenue,
then
that
the
property
that
we
are
acquiring
shall
be
conveyed
to
the
city
at
no
cost,
so
we're
getting
those
properties
at
no
cost
to
the
city.
City,
of
course,
would
incur
the
cost
of
bombing
in
the
fire
station
and
that
the
net
proceeds
from
the
sale
shall
be
paid
to
the
city
not
to
the
iura.
A
So
those
are
the
core
terms
and
conditions
of
the
disposition
and
development
agreement.
I
will
again
move
it
for
discussion
and
look
for
a
second
thank
you
tracy.
I
guess.
Maybe
I
will
open
up
for
questions
at
this
phase
about
any
aspect
of
the
project
or
the
tda.
E
This
is
the
first
time
I've
seen
property
tax
revenues
described
this
way
which
I
like,
but
I
just
wondered
about
it
compared
to
other
development
issues,.
F
Yeah
this
is
you
know
when
we,
when
we
have
a
concern
that
there
might
be
a
potential
transfer
to
a
tax-exempt
entity
in
the
past.
The
agency
has
looked
into
this
issue
and
tried
to
figure
out
a
way
that
there
wouldn't
be
a
sharp
reduction
in
property
tax
revenue
coming
into
the
city,
and
we
did
incorporate
a
similar
pilot
agreement
on
the
sale
of
the
property
adjacent
to
the
kuga
parking
garage
along
the
waterfront.
When
that
was
conveyed
for
development
of
the
loss
housing
project
in
network
case,
it
seemed
to
work
out.
F
Well,
we
were
really
playing.
You
know
we're
worried
about
a
worst
case
scenario.
F
F
We
have
done
this
once
before
and
it
seems
to
have
be
a
workable
solution
to
to
build
in
that
issue
plus
when
we,
when
the
city
negotiation
team,
took
a
look
at
the
pros
and
cons
of
this
project
for
the
city,
we
did
anticipate
that
309
college
avenue
would
be
redeveloped
in
it
for
for
a
taxable
use
and
produce
revenues
for
the
city.
F
A
Right
so
in
essence,
we're
trent
we're
we're
actually
probably
trading
a
more
what
is
currently
off
the
tax
rolls
for
for
a
more
lucrative
taxable
potential
project
at
309
college
ad
than
you
can
get
at
elmwood
and
dryden
right.
So
it
should
actually
be
a
net
gain
for
the
city
in
terms
of
moving
the
fire
station
to
a
a
less
less
valuable
piece
of
real
estate.
Right.
F
F
F
Payment
and
loose
system
that's
executed
can
be
our
incentives.
It
can
be
enforceable
on
on
the
property
owner,
they
would
acquire
it
with
that
understanding
and
it
would
be
when
they
acquire
the
prior
property.
They
do
a
tax
search.
They
would
find
that
this
document
had
been
filed
against
the
property.
A
A
Okay.
So
the
next
up
item
for
economic
development
committee
is
a
lending
application
for
personal
best
brewing.
I
believe
the
applicant
is
here
as
well,
so
this
is
for
a
project
at
300
westy
mlk.
So
let
me
just
bring
that
up
for
myself
here
as
well,
so
we
also
reviewed
this
economic
development
committee.
This
is
a
project
that
is
already
has
been
already
moving
ahead,
which
is
the
redevelopment
of
the
city
health
club
at
which
is
actually
on
kind
of
borders,
both
green
street
and
state
street.
A
The
applicant
is
coming
forward
to
the
ira
for
additional
financing
through
our
economic
development
loan
fund
of
up
to
140
000,
to
basically
finish
the
project,
so
they
have
put
a
substantial
amount
of
equity,
as
you
can
see
from
the,
whereas
over
five
hundred
thousand
dollars
of
equity
into
this
project
to
to
lead
that
renovation,
and
so
what
we
would
be
helping
to
kind
of
close
here
is
additional
kind
of
furniture,
fixture
and
equipment,
as
well
as
supplies,
landscaping
and
importantly
working
capital
to
help
make
sure
that
they've
got
adequate
cash
flow
to
get
the
project
up
and
running
and
off
the
ground.
A
A
A
We
are
proposing
that
the
borrower
establish
and
continue
on
automatic
loan
payment
through
a
financial
institution
so
that
we
can
get
timely
repayments
and
not
have
sort
of
some
of
the
issues
that
we've
had
relying
on
the
u.s
postal
system
and
there's
the
further
benefit
to
the
applicant.
If
they
meet
once
they
meet
our
job
requirements,
job
reporting
requirements
that
they
get
additional
reduction
in
their
loan
rate.
A
As
you
can
see
in
that
particular
clause,
I
think
there
are
a
couple
of
issues
that
we
sort
of
just
talked
about
at
the
committee
is
we
do
have
a
first
lien
interest
on
all
business
assets,
although
obviously
that's
not
as
ideal
collaterals,
as
obviously
the
building
would
be,
but
under
the
kind
of
structure
of
this
particular
arrangement,
the
applicant
is
actually
a
tenant
there.
A
So
we're
getting
the
collateral
that
we
can
we're,
also
seeking-
and
I
think,
we're
going
to
receive
personal
guarantees
from
two
individuals,
including
the
owner
of
the
actual
property
at
402
west
green
street.
So
I
think
our
underwriting
is
determined
that
is
sufficient
and
we've
looked
at
the
economics
of
the
proposal,
both
through
the
underwriting
process
and
then
through
the
economic
development
committee.
A
I
think
there's
a
little
concern
that
it
might
be
like
overly
aggressive
in
terms
of
margin,
but
even
under
you
know,
some
back
of
the
napkin
calculations
of
higher
labor
costs
due
to
the
current
situation,
with
labor
costs
in
our
community
and
nationwide
and
and
slower
revenue
growth
goals
that
they
got,
they
have
sufficient
margin
built
into
the
project
to
cover
debt
service,
which
is
our
our
primary
concern.
A
So
this
project
was,
you
know,
hardly
supported
by
the
economic
development
committee.
We
think
it's
an
important
project
to
improve
the
kind
of
economic
vibrancy
of
that
corridor
and
certainly
take
a
a
parcel
that
has
been
underutilized
for
some
time
and
really
give
it
a
boost
of
life
so
for
discussion.
I
will
move
this
and
then
ask
nells
if
he
has
any
sort
of
additional
pieces.
So
is
there
a
second
thank
you,
carl,
maybe
first
I'll
just
go
to
nelson
anything
that
I
missed
or
anything
you
want
to
add.
F
Just
a
quick
warning
that
my
internet
is
unstable,
I'm
informed
so
if
I
drop
out
just
continue
without
me,
but
and
I'll
get
back
in,
but
I
think
the
underwriting
report
we
had
was
done
by
age,
sticker
mining
company
they've
looked
at
25,
micro
micro,
you
know
brew,
pubs
and
micro
micro
brewing
facilities
in
mostly
in
upstate
new
york,
and
they
they
made
clear
in
their
report
and
when,
in
my
discussions
with
them
that
the
number
one
reason
why
a
brute
pub
would
fail
is
because
they
have
too
much
debt
and
too
much
fixed
costs
built
into
their
their
plan.
F
This
project
really
avoids
that
issue
by
not
having
any
existing
banknet
and
having
all
the
equity
built
into
it.
So
it's
one
of
the
major
positives
about
this
structure
and
the
way
this
project
has
been
brought
forward.
It's
taken
time
to
get
to
this
point
because
I
I
know
anthony
cesari
was
hoping
to
be
open
a
year
or
two
ago,
but
the
benefit
of
that
is.
We
don't
have
a
lot
of
fixed
debt
on
this
project,
we're
not
coming
in
as
a
third
lender
or
something
behind
two
other
banks.
F
So
it's
a
really
a
positive
strength
and
the
applicant
has
indicated
that
the
property
owner
is
willing
to
provide
the
personal
financial
guarantee
on
the
loan.
Thanks.
A
Thanks
nils
again,
yeah
anthony
is
here:
people
have
questions
for
him
about
the
project,
so
I'll
open
it
up
to
the
committee.
I
see
carl
and
laura.
D
Yeah,
thank
you
chris,
and
I
guess
this
is
a
question
for
the
the
owner
or
the
owner's
representative.
The
last,
whereas
contains
four
recommendations
that
were
developed
at
the
the
economic
development
committee's
meeting,
I'm
wondering
one.
If
again,
the
owner
had
an
opportunity
to
see
those
recommendations
and
if
so,
what
is
the
feeling
of
the
ownership
owner
or
ownership
group
about
the
feasibility
of
those
recommendations?.
A
A
Okay,
not
sure
where
he
is,
but
I'll
speak
to
that
a
little
bit
carl,
I
don't
have
his
response
in
front
of
nels
can
also
speak
to
it
right.
So
we
nels
did
provide
that
to
him.
He
provided
a
written
response.
Oh
anthony
you're
there
I'm.
H
Sorry
yeah,
my
phone
did
not
unlock
readily,
though
yes,
I'm
sorry,
this
is
auntie
cesari
with
the,
whereas,
yes,
I
didn't
have
a
chance
to
to
read
those,
and
let
me
just
put
my
notes
here
and
I
can
go
from
the
top.
H
H
You
know
to
sell
other
people's
drinks,
but
with
our
licenses,
we're
currently
limited
to
crafting
only
malt
beverages
and
getting
to
what's
a
considered
non-alcoholic
beverage
or
.05,
abv
or
less
is
a
quite
strict
standard
and
we
do
not
have
the
machinery
facilities
to
manufacture
zero
percent
or
.05
abv
or
less
alcohol.
It's
a
pretty
big
undertaking.
It's
a
very
you
can
brew
low
abv.
A
Yeah
and
that
totally
was
consistent
with
the
the
committee's
response,
I
don't
think
the
committee
was
expecting
them
to
brew
that
necessarily
on
site
and
as
long
as
they
featured
some
other
non-alcoholic
beverages,
I
think
that
was
satisfactory
anthony.
Do
you
want
to
comment
on
any
of
the
other
bullets
as
well
sure.
H
Moving
the
next
one,
the
work
first
pay
scale
yeah.
I
understand,
and
you
already
brought
it
up
earlier
in
the
meeting
that
with
local
wages,
current
labor
mark
and
everything,
obviously,
numbers
have
a
continued
increase,
and
it's
at
some
point
of
continually
revising
that,
like
we're
completely
aware
that
you
know
we
want
to
pursue,
is
you
know,
competitive
and
aggressive
like
wage
and
compensation
packages
as
possible?
H
It's
not
going
to
be
trying
to
constantly
do
the
lowest
amount
possible
like
we
want
to
attract
people
with
with
you
know,
a
very
positive
work,
environment
and
and
wage,
and
you
know
we're
obviously
gonna
face
the
challenges.
Everyone
is
for
staffing
up
as
quickly
as
possible,
but
you
know
obviously
the
way
to
do
that
is
to
offer
the
most
competitive
wages
possible,
so
we'll
likely
exceed
that
what
whatever
the
most
last
revision
was
in
our
estimates.
H
But
you
know
that's
also
part
of
the
reason
why
we
built
the
margin
into
that
to
be
able
to
compensate
for
that
with
the
changing
market.
A
H
H
Where
you
know
we
put
an
order,
get
your
number
called
and
come
pick
it
up,
so
we
won't
be
having
waitstaff
anytime,
but
the
front
of
the
house
staff
will
all
be
entry
level
positions,
and
for
me
personally,
I
I
feel
that
I
want
to
have
very
little.
H
I
know
some
people
want
to
hire
only
like
people
are
already
super
into
craft
beer
or
that
whole
scene,
and
then
so
they
can
talk
about
beer
endlessly
to
patrons.
But
I
feel
like
it's
a
pretty
easily
easy
learnable
space
and
just
talk
about
the
products
itself
is
pretty
easy
and
that
everything
would
be
expected
to
be
learned
through
on-site
training.
So
I
don't
want
to
to
keep
any
applicants
who
simply
want
a
good
paying
job
in
a
work
environment
that
has
nothing
to
do
with
like
your
interest
in
crafty
or
anything.
H
I
think
you
can
be
an
excellent
bartender
and
highly
knowledgeable
with
just
learning
how
to
talk
about
it,
because
it's
your
work
and
not
some
hobby
or
passion,
or
anything
like
that.
So
I
think
we
have
several
positions
that
should
be
open
to
a
wide
range
of
applicants
and
other
than
expanding
the
brewing
force,
which
is
not
going
to
happen
for
quite
some
time.
H
Every
additional
position
should
be
about
the
same
entry
level
position
for
for
quite
some
time,
because
that's
really
going
to
be
the
part
that
scales
up
is
the
the
service
part,
especially
once
the
outside
bar
your
garden
section
is
open.
You
know
we'll
need
additional
white
staff
or
servers
out
there.
If
we're
able
to
do
like
you
know,
outdoor
service
in
the
summer.
H
And
then,
regarding
the
state
street
side,
so
by
in
terms
of
the
fire
department,
cares.
Where
are
the
321
west
state
street?
We
do
not
currently
have
that
as
our
main
entrance
as
the
floor
plan
show
and
our
ambitions
is,
that
is
going
to
be
our
long-term
and
primary
entrance.
H
So
then,
for
all
the
code
standards
it
has
to
be
a
pretty
significant
cut
back
back
into
the
space.
So
like
we'll
build
a
little
additional.
You
know
cube
on
the
side
of
the
building
to
make
like
the
foyer
and
new
state
street
entrance,
because
that's
always
been
our
goal
to
have
that
as
a
primary
entrance
foot
traffic
and
to
be
a
part
of
the
state
street
corridor
opposed
to
the
green
street
side.
D
Sorry
about
that,
I
got
lost
in
my
on
my
various
screens.
Thank
you
very
much,
mr
cesari.
I
I
believe
that
the
the
the
pay
scale,
I
think,
is
very
important.
I
think
you
know
it's
a
business
necessity
to
really
be
competitive,
but
though
I
think
the
last
two
for
me
are
the
most
important.
D
I
think
again,
I
think
it's
a
great
business
decision
to
have
a
diverse
workforce,
particularly
given
that
you
are
downtown,
and
there
are
many
craft
beer
drinkers
that
I
know
who
are
people
of
color
and
would
be
patrons
of
a
business
that
they
might
avoid
if
they
felt
that
their
friends
and
neighbors
weren't
able
to
be
hired
to
work
there,
and
I
know
that
one
of
the
one
of
the
goals
of
not
just
this
agency,
but
the
city
is
to
have
improvements
along
the
state
street
corridor
and
to
really
link
that
300
block
of
state
to
the
commons
and
to
the
the
businesses
and
the
4
and
500
block.
D
So
again,
I
think
developing
that
facade
that
state
street
facade
would
be
really
helpful
to
your
business.
So
I
thank
you
for
responding
to
those
and
thinking
about
those
recommendations
and
I
hope
you'll
be
able
to
implement
them.
Yeah.
A
Thank
you,
carl,
and
then
you
know,
I
think,
just
letting
you
know
anthony.
I
mean
we,
you
know,
provide
a
fair
bit
of
funding
every
year
to
the
hospitality,
implement
training
program
at
giac
and
I'm
sure
the
staff
could
connect
you
to
the
folks
at
http.
If
you
wanted
to
tap
into
a
pipeline
of
candidates
that
might
help
you,
you
know
address
the
third
bullet
that
come.
You
know
with
some
additional
training
that
can
offset
what
you
guys
need
to
do.
So
you
know
nels
or
someone
on
the
team
can
help
you
connect
with
them.
H
Excellent,
you
just
answered
my
fault
question
of
the
resources
available
to
to
assist
in
and
making
those
hitting
those
staffing
targets.
Besides,
just
you
know,
posting
things
on
indeed
another
yeah
exactly
thank
you.
A
Help
you
find
a
pipeline
of
people
who
have
been
through
at
least
some.
You
know
initial
kind
of
training
and
orientation
to
what
it
means
to
work
in
the
in
the
broader
hospitality
industry.
I
mean
you're
a
bit
of
a
specialty,
but
if
you
could
then
build
your
specialty
training
on
top
of
their
core
foundation,
that
would
be
great.
A
Cool
thanks
I'll
look
to
the
other
board
members
for
additional
questions.
A
E
I'm
very
happy
to
see
something
being
developed
in
this
area
along
the
mlk
west
state
corridor,
and
I
I
do
think
it
is
important
to
link
to
the
street.
I
mean
stuff
is
pretty
rugged
right,
ragged
down
there
right
now
and
you're
going
to
have
a
lot
of
outdoor
space
and
I'm
hoping
that
you
have
a
way
to
make
it
really
attractive
and
secure,
because
otherwise
that's
going
to
be
a
big
open,
unsecured
space
which
is
at
it
could
add
to
the
problems
on
that
street.
H
Yes,
the
the
so
we're
trying
to
do
is
like
minimalist,
but
you
know
effective
barrier
on
the
state
street
side
and
eventually
the
full
renovation
of
what
will
be
the
beer
garden
that
parking
lot,
that
is,
to
the
west
side
of
the
entire
length
of
the
building.
H
That's
all
going
to
be
outdoor
space,
none
of
that
will
be
for
parking
and
to
not
have
you
know
an
imposing
fence
or
structure
that
fully
isolates
the
space
from
you
know
the
neighborhood,
but
also
obviously
secures
the
lot
at
nighttime
when
business
is
no
longer
open
and
essentially
making
all
entrances
into
that
space
where
you'll
have
to
enter
first
into
the
building
and
then
enter
into
the
space
from
the
building
is
basically
the
solution
we
have
for
that
space
that
won't
be
other
than
emergency
exits.
H
We
won't
be
having
people
directly
walk
into
beer
garden,
just
so
keeping
that
flow
of
the
very
least
you
know
we
have
to
come
into
our
own
brewery.
First
before
you
can
enter
that
space
to
hopefully
keep
it
open,
but
also
that
it's
not
impossible
to
keep
secure
during
off
hours.
H
I
That
was
a
great
question
and
an
interesting
answer
and
a
valid
concern.
When
I
first
heard
about
this,
I
was
wondering
about
the
market
because
of
the
proximity
to
liquid
state
and
to
a
little
branch
of
lucky
lucky
hair.
I
think
up
the
street-
and
this
was
addressed
somewhat
in
the
in
the
agenda,
but
I'd
like
a
little
elaboration
on
the
viability
of
the
business
given
the
proximity
to
liquid
state
and
the
wide
availability
of
craft
beer
throughout
the
area.
Now,
thank
you.
Donna.
H
So
I
mean
the
general
premise
that
has
played
out
with
both
wineries
and
breweries
is
basically
that
when
you
have
a
certain
density
before
saturation
point,
you
then
now
make
it
a
destination.
You
know
now
you
can
park
and
on
foot
visit,
three
four
breweries
opposed
to
hop
skipping
between
a
couple
you
know
in
different
towns.
So
there's
that
you
know
beer
trail
aspect,
that's
already
becoming
well
established
in
the
finger
lakes,
and
you
know
we're
looking
forward
to
becoming
a
part
of
that.
H
It
increases
the
ability
for
collaborative
work
if,
if
paying
attention
to
like
cans
or
craft
beer,
regionally
or
anywhere
in
area,
like
collaborations,
are
a
huge
part
of
the
craft
beer
industry
from
really
big
companies
helping
out
small
ones
to
just
the
brewery
down
the
street
or
the
town
over,
and
it's
shown
time
and
time
again
that
the
more
we
feature
each
other
and
are
marketing
each
other.
It's
you
know,
people
tend
to
want
to
go
visit,
multiple
places
in
addition
to
the
people
who
find
it
to
become
their
regular
place.
H
In
addition
to,
I
think,
being
part
of
this
still
well
before
saturation
point
for
a
town
like
ithaca
of
breweries
in
the
downtown
area,
we
also
have
a
substantial
amount
of
indoor
space
for
food
and
beverage
as
well
as
entertainment,
and
we
will
be
a
a
family
friendly
place
and
I
think
for
the
unfortunate
months
of
ithaca,
where
there's
not
a
whole
lot
of
places
for
people
to
go
and
congregate
in
large,
open
spaces,
which
now
you
know
would
after
the
pain
you
know,
we
had
this
plan
before
the
pandemic,
but
being
able
to
still
spread
out
is
still
of
comfort
to
many
people,
and
I
think,
in
addition
to
being
another
craft
beverage
manufacturer,
I
think
our
space
both
indoors
and
outdoors
is
quite
unique
to
the
downtown
area,
and
I
think
that
alone
is
a
massive
draw
for
the
business
just
a
place.
H
You
know
where
you
can
go
with
your
family
and
get
some
food
hang
out
drink,
don't
drink
play
some
shuffle
boards.
You
know
things
like
that.
I'd
be
like
are
an
equal
part
of
the
business.
Obviously,
I
care
most
about
the
the
beer
part
since
I
am
a
brewer
and
then
you
know
I
take
pride
in
that,
but
there's
there's
a
lot
to
be
said
about
just
the
food
and
entertainment
aspect
and
obviously
developing
things.
H
Outdoor
events,
things
like
that
small
stages
for
eventual
music
stuff,
which
is
not
the
initial
focus,
but
we
certainly
have
the
space
for
are
all
exciting
ways
to
to
draw
more
people
there,
who
you
know,
have
plenty
of
ways
to
engage
with
their
business
and
be
patrons
that
could
care
less
about
beer
but
still
are
good
for
our
business.
E
You
mentioned
the
outdoor
live
music.
I
just
want
to
caution
you
that
there
have
been
issues
before
with
very
loud
music
for
people
who
are
living
close
by
and
there
will
be
many
people
living
close
by.
So
just
a
cautionary
thing
about
that,
and
then
I
also
wondered:
can
you
sell
wine.
H
H
Initially,
we'll
be
utilizing
local
food
trucks
that
we've
been
actually
a
lot
of
them
reached
out
to
us
when
they
just
kind
of
saw
news
articles
here
and
there,
but
we
have
our
own
kitchen
space
to
the
side.
The
priority
has
been
getting
the
brewery
stood
up
and
then
once
we've
got
that
going,
we
will
start
to
stand
up.
Our
own,
I
believe,
will
be
a
level
one
kitchen.
H
You
know
like
large,
griddle,
no
open
flame
kind
of
just
like
being
able
to
create
smart,
smaller
bar
food,
small
plate
style
dishes
and
but
in
the
meantime,
we'll
be
featuring
food
trucks
out
in
the
beer
garden
area
for
for
patrons
to
have.
But
yes,
food
is
part
of
a
long-term
plan
and
we
already
have
the
you
know
the
kitchen
space
created.
A
G
Thanks
chris
first,
let
me
say
that
this
is
a
project
that
you've
clearly
been
working
on
for
years.
It
is
incredibly
well
thought
out,
and
you
know,
avoid
some
of
the
risks
of
other
businesses
because
of
all
the
equity
that's
built
in.
Following
up
on
some
of
the
earlier
questions,
I
was
pleased
to
see
your
projected
hours
of
operation
are
until
10
pm,
rather
than
a
later
time,
that's
kind
of
following
up
on
one
of
tracy's
questions
and
then
for
new
employment
and
your
projected
opening
in
late
august.
Are
you
already
looking?
G
You
know
you
indicate
13.5
new
full-time,
equivalent
positions
within
the
first
three
months.
There
certainly
are
hiring
challenges
that
all
businesses
are
experiencing
right
now,
so
can
you
say
something
about
your
recruitment
plan
so
that
you
are
addressing
one
of
the
four
recommendations
from
the
committee
to
recruit,
diverse
workforce.
H
Yes,
so
at
this
point
it's
still
developmenting
development,
developing
the
the
plan
and
well
also,
I
mentioned
earlier
wanting
to
to
see
what
resources
we
have
available
to
to
help
us
with
that
or
then
just
you
know
your
your
standard
job
listings
and
blasting
every
possible
online
resource.
H
We
underwent
some
challenges
with
a
specific
contractor
either
way
there
was
a
additional
unexpected
setbacks
through
malfeasance
of
a
contractor
that
we've
had
to
now
built
into
the
timetable
and
and
rectify,
and
from
the
opening
standpoint
before
when
we
really
know
okay,
this
is
we're
going
to
open.
H
We
kind
of
have
a
two
to
three
week
actually,
basically
a
month
buffer
of
we're
going
to
need
to
start
brewing
beer
as
soon
as
we
have
a
certificate
of
occupancy
and
other
brewer
luke
thorley
will
basically
need
to
fill
up
the
tanks
and
fill
up
some
kegs
and
then
so
from
that
day
we
have
our
month
to
two
month,
full
opening.
You
know
we'll
be
able
to
do
soft
open
stuff
like
distribute,
cakes
to
local
bars
and
maybe
do
a
tap
takeover
because
of
new
york
state.
H
You
are
allowed
to
self
distribute
as
a
microbrewer,
which
is
great.
That
gives
us
some
flexibility
to
start
getting
our
name
out
there
before
we
can
fully
have
people
inside,
but
no
matter
what
we
have
a
lead
time
of
when
we're
brewing
and
functioning
as
a
business.
At
that
point
and
actually
going
to
have
to
have
people
available
to
bartend
and
you
know,
run
the
business.
H
Obviously,
we'll
start
with
this,
you
know
limited
hours
and
expand
as
quickly
as
we
can
through
staffing,
and
I
I
understand
the
challenges
and,
more
than
anything,
obviously
I
think
the
more
money
you
can
offer
for
the
position,
the
more
applications
you're
going
to
get
of
of
job
applicants
and
yeah.
H
I
want
to
lean
on
any
resource
that's
available
locally,
because
it's
it
was
going
to
be
a
challenge
to
hire
a
bunch
of
people
quickly
before
the
pandemic,
and
I
would
see
nothing's
gone
easier
since
then,
and
I'm
more
aware
of
that
and
we'll
have
to
adjust
ours
accordingly.
If
we're
unable
to
scale
up
that
first
month
is
or
two
as
rapidly
as
you
want.
You
know,
then
we'll
have
to
be
reflecting
our
hours
and
continue
to
push
from
there.
H
I
myself
obviously
intend
to
fill
every
available
gap
as
a
as
a
bartender
myself,
and
you
know
it
will
just
have
to
be.
H
Being
as
flexible
as
possible
to
start
because
of
all
the
things
mentioned
before
and.
H
G
G
H
Yeah,
so
we
kind
of
actually
have
two
stages
to
that,
which
so
the
first
being
issued
a
slightly
different,
particular
occupancy
just
for
the
manufacturing
of
the
beverage
where
at
least
we'll
be
able
to
myself
in
a
brewer
with
you
know,
no,
no
patrons
allowed
business,
closed,
manufacture
and
sell
our
beer
off
premise
like
through
the
mentioned.
H
H
That
was
the
last
hurdle
for
us
to
just
operate
the
brewery
equipment
ourselves
and
manufacture
the
beer
so
that
that's
our
like
not
opening,
but
at
least
operating,
so
that
at
least
starts
back
up
on
the
track
to
generating
revenue
that
we
can
manufacture
and
sell
beer
outside
of
the
tap
room.
H
And
then
once
the
certificate
of
occupancy
for
the
entire
building
is
issued.
That
sets
off.
That
kind
of
month,
lead
timeline
of
like
now.
We
can
start
advertising
our
our
projected
soft
open
date
because
we're
not
gonna.
Oh,
we
can't
open
without
beer
to
sell,
and
it
takes.
You
know
like
two
weeks
for
a
single
batch
of
beer.
Although
we
have
a
pretty
large
size
tank
farm,
the
amount
of
fermenting
vessels
we
have
so
we'll
be
able
to
quite
quickly
fill
those
up
by.
H
You
know
brewing
aggressively
that
first
couple
weeks
and
hopefully
be
able
to
open
with
a
large
offering
you
know
a
month
ahead
of
that
final
issuing
of
a
certificate
of
occupancy,
because
we
can't
brew,
but
we
can
brew
a
smaller
scale
before,
but
we
also
don't
want
to
sit
on
a
bunch
of
beer
if
there
is
any
fur
blaze
because
expect
the
unexpected.
It's
been
the
the
what
has
happened
time
and
time
again
with
with
all
the
the
things
that
continue
to
happen
as
setbacks,
minor
and
major
with
the
space.
E
E
H
Yes,
we
were
actually
on
the
cusp
of
that
before
we
there
was
some
miscommunication
early
on
when
we
were
using
our
small
pilot
system
a
couple
months
ago
with
what
one
part
of
city
was
saying.
That
was
fine,
then
eventually
the
fire
department,
our
neighbors,
came
in
and
said.
H
Actually,
let's
stop
doing
this
for
now
until
we
seized
so
we
yeah,
we
already
had
to
begin
something
with
contacts
with
some
some
key
tap
rooms,
and
you
know
bar
restaurants,
that
are
more
craft
beer
focused
and
corning
palmyra,
as
well
as
looking
to
do
some,
maybe
tap
takeover
events
at
bars
like
the
westie
and
other
ones
locally,
to
kind
of
get
a
little
more
local
presence
and,
needless
to
say,
it's
been
an
endless
request
of
when
one
of
you
guys
opening.
H
When
when
can
we
taste
your
beer
for
far
too
far
too
long
in
my
life?
Has
it
been
in
this
holding
pattern?
So
you
know
the
urgency
is:
is
there
and
as
soon
as
we
can
make
the
beer
we'll
be
at
least
selling
it
to
those
outlets?
And
hopefully
that
should
be,
but
that's
the
one,
the
end
of
july
we're
looking
for
because
we
actually
just
installed
the
final
piece
of
equipment
required
by
the
fire
department,
some
tamper,
resistant
valve
or
something
of
sort.
D
Chris
mentioned
the
hospitality
employment
program
at
at
the
greater
ithaca
activities
center
and
there
may
be-
or
there
are
other
community
agencies
that
could
refer
potential
employees.
So
I'm
wondering
what's
the
best
method
for
those
agencies
to
reach
out
to
you,
your
your
business.
Would
it
be
through
your.
H
Through
website
yeah,
I
mean
website
my
email
address
phone.
I
mean
the
the
info
at
personal
best
brewing.
You
know,
I'm
copying
every
email
that
goes
to
that.
That's.
What's
the
informational
email
listed
on
the
website,
I'm
happy
to
be
copied
on
any
cc
vending
emails
to
establish
in-person
meetings
and
meetings
with
anyone.
You
know
I'm
available
now
pretty
much
every
morning,
the
remainder
of
the
summer
and
would
be
happy
to
get
that
going
as
quickly
as
possible
with
whoever's
the
right
person
to
talk
to.
A
Okay,
this
resolution
has
been
moved
and
seconded.
Is
there
any
other
discussion
before
we
take
a
vote.
A
Okay,
see
none
all
those
in
favor
and
that
carries
unanimously
five
to
zero
anthony.
Thank
you
for
your
time
today.
Thank
you
for
your
commitment
to
city.
In
terms
of
building
this
business
out
and
and
your
patience,
it
sounds
like
it's
been
a
trying
time.
We
look
forward
to
it,
opening
carl.
You
have
one
more
comment.
D
Yeah,
sorry,
it's
still
unemployment
in
mr
cesar
in
your
business.
Are
there
restrictions
in
terms
of
hiring
someone
who
was
formally
incarcerated.
H
I'll
have
to
double
check,
I
don't
believe
as
a
brewer.
It's
the
restrictions
are
if
that
person
ever
became
a
shareholder
of
the
company,
because
this
liquor
license
carries
those
restrictions,
but
the
actual
act
of
brewing
and
serving
in
new
york
state,
I
do
not
believe,
has
the
restrictions,
but
I
have
to
double
check,
but
I
think
it
would
only
ever
be
having
their
name.
H
They
would
have
difficulty
getting
a
laker
license
under
their
name
would
be
the
only
thing,
but
obviously
that's
not
the
situation
here.
It's
all
under
my
name
and
I
don't
believe
any
employees
would
be
held
to
that
standard.
Okay,
great,
thank
you.
A
Great
okay,
again
anthony
thank
you
and
good
luck.
H
A
Thank
you
all
right,
all
right.
We,
the
economic
development
committee,
has
one
more
item
which
is
in
your
packet,
which
is
authorizing
a
lisa
sublease
amendment
for
commuter
park
and
ride
at
steamboat
landing
so
sibo
landing,
of
course,
is
otherwise
known
as
the
ithaca
farmers
market.
A
The
city
leases
that
land
to
the
urban
renewal
agency.
We
then
have
a
sublease
with
the
ithaca
farmers
market
cooperative.
A
The
farmers
market
approached
us
about
using,
during
monday,
through
friday,
business
hours,
usage
parking
spaces
for
park
and
ride
use
in
collaboration
with
corning
inc
and
our
bus.
That
would
allow
commuters
from
the
ithaca
area
to
utilize
that
parking
lot
to
leave
their
vehicles
and
then
take
a
bus
to
corning
for
work
and
then
return
after
review
by
city
and
ira
staff.
It
was
determined
that
that
use
is
not
compliant
with
the
lease
as
written.
A
So
herein,
you
see
sort
of
a
resolution
that
went
through,
I
believe,
has
now
completed.
I
think
it's
circuit
through
the
city-
or
maybe
it's
moving
through
the
city
simultaneously
to
us
that
would
allow
us
to
amend
our
sub
lease
with
the
farmers
market
to
enable
them
with
some
restrictions,
to
use
up
to
50
parking
spaces
that
are
undesignated,
in
other
words
anywhere
in
that
lot,
for
the
park
and
ride
use
and
to
make
some
additional.
A
Kind
of
coordination
with
the
transportation
provider,
in
terms
of
where
that
bus
could
be
picking
and
dropping
off
passengers,
etc.
So
there's
a
memo
in
your
packet
that
explains
a
little
bit
more
about
this,
and
then
you
have
the
resolution
which
will
allow
us
to
amend
that
sublease
from
the
farmers
market
has
been
reviewed
by
the
economic
development
committee
and
passed
unanimously.
So
I
will
also
move
this
resolution
forward
for
discussion
and
see
if
there's
a
second
seconded
by
tracy,
nels
or
lisa.
F
I
think
you
covered
the
main
issues
just
to
note
that
the
common
council
held
a
special
meeting
last
night
and
they
did
approve
approve
it
at
the
city
level,
so
this
action
would
be
the
last
approval
necessary
to
amend
the
lease
and
authorize
the
parking
rate
use
great.
Thank
you.
I
F
It
turns
out
that
corning
incorporated
is
heavily
involved
with
this
project
and
they're
trying
to
make
to
provide
a
park
and
ride
service
for
their.
I
think
they
refer
to
them
as
our
scientists,
who
are
technical
staff,
who
are
coming
from
ithaca,
similar
to
a
a
an
existing
program.
They
have
for
rochester
based
employees
coming
to
to
corning.
So
cornyn
incorporated
is
playing
a
role
in
make
making
sure
there's
a
transit
bus.
That's
going
to
make
this
route
on
a
regular
basis
monday
through
friday,.
A
F
I
think
we
want
to
just
let
I
think
a
farmer's
market
figure
out
how
they
needed
to
contract
with
it
and
work
it
out,
but
yeah.
Essentially,
in
this
particular
case,
it
appears
that
cornea
incorporated
is
going
to
be
playing.
The
mage
is
going
to
be
playing
the
major
role
of
of
financing
this
operation,
one
way
or
another.
A
Great
any
other
questions:
okay,
all
those
in
favor
that
is
unanimous
as
well
five
to
zero
thanks
everybody
for
sticking
with
all
of
that
economic
development
activity.
I
have
no
other
chair
report,
so
I
think
we're
moving
on
to
other
business.
I
had
suggested
that
we
insert
as
the
first
item
the
draft
resolution
recognizing
eric
rosario's
20
plus
years
service
to
the
iura.
I
think
now
circulated
that
to
everybody
last
night
and
charles
thank
you
for
pulling
it
up
on
screen.
A
A
Yeah,
so
I
think
we
obviously
acknowledged
eric's
resignation
as
a
matter
of
business.
I
think
the
last
time,
but
we
weren't
quite
in
a
position
to
really
have
this
ready
to
go,
and
I
really
want
to
thank
nels
for
putting
it
together.
It
sort
of
slipped
my
mind
and
nels
did
the
first
draft
here,
which
I
think
is
really
very
much
appropriate
in
recognition
of
eric's
service
but
happy
to
have
anybody
comment
or
add
any
or
amend
any
of
the,
whereas
if
there
are
any.
A
Looks
like
none,
so
I'm
assuming
that
is
a
positive
thing:
try
to
read
body
language
here:
okay,
all
those
in
favor
of
of
adopting
this
resolution
of
appreciation
for
eric
rosario.
A
That
is
the
nms
five
to
zero.
Thank
you
eric,
I'm
sure
you're,
not
watching,
but
nonetheless
let
it
be
shown
for
the
record
that
we
much
appreciate
all
your
service.
Oh
yeah,
carl's,.
D
Yeah
go
ahead,
I'm
sorry
chris
standard.
Just
a
question
is:
will
the
resolution
be
delivered
to
eric?
How
will
he
learn
of
it.
F
C
F
You
know
eric
is
served
so
long.
He
was
serving
on
the
ed
committee
when
I
first
came
to
work.
That's
how
long
he's
been
with
the
agency.
So
I
really
appreciate
all
his
support
he's
had
for
the
agency
and
the
staff
over
the
years.
That's
great.
A
Yeah,
terrific,
okay
nels,
the
financials
review
you.
F
Should
have
the
grant
loan
and
lease
payment
reports
on
the
grant
summary
report
we're
tracking
projects
that
are
slow
and
implementation?
There
is
a
new
one
that
was
added,
or
at
least
it's
one
I
wanted
to
highlight,
which
is
the
go
ithaca,
low
income
support
program?
That's
a
transit
oriented
program.
That's
not
been
successful
at
spending
on
any
funds.
Yet
on
the
2020
cdbg
activities.
Anissa
is
working
with
them
to
get
that
started.
F
I
think
they
had
a
little
staffing
issue
for
a
while
there
they
had
told
us
a
couple
points:
they
were
going
to
implement
the
program,
get
started
and
it
it's
it's
been
slow
going,
so
we're
working
with
them
to
bring
that
back
on
on
on
target.
F
That's
the
newest
one,
the
other
ones
you
see
here
have
been
identified
previously
and
actually
the
salvation
army
project
is
one
where
we
have
just
approved
today
to
reprogram
funds
away
from
the
small
business
resiliency
fund
at
the
top
of
the
2019
cwg
cb
activities
chart
or
the
top
of
the
screen
charleston
has
put
up,
is
a
situation
where
we
have
vouchers
for
them,
but
we
were
unable
to
show
compliance
with
the
original
terms
for
some
of
the
funds,
we're
waiting
for
documentation,
they've
had
a
lot
of
staff
turnover,
so
my
expectation
is
we're
going
to
be
able
to
pay
out,
probably
about
50
of
that,
based
on
the
data
we
have
to
date,
but
the
remaining
50
50
of
that
29
000,
is
at
risk,
we'll
have
to
see
if
they've
been
able
to
make
progress
with
some
of
their
small
businesses
that
received
assistance
and
the
other
one
that
I
wanted
to
highlight,
which
is
not
listed
here,
as
I
know,
is
the
st
john's
community
services
hvac
improve
air
improvement
project
which
is
the
emergency
shelter
they,
that
was
a
physical
construction
activity
that
triggered
federal
prevailing
wages
and
their
their
contractor
has
not
provided
them
with
documentation
of
compliance,
so
we're
working
with
them
to
see
if
we
can
find
a
way
to
make
that
eligible
for
the
terms
that
we
contracted
with
them,
which
did
require
federal
prevailing
wages.
F
B
F
Executing
our
contract,
even
though
they
knew
the
framework
in
the
terms
they
were
they,
they
were
anxious
to
get
it
going
and
they
didn't
incorporate
all
the
requirements
in
their
contract
with
their
contractor,
but
it
has
been
installed
and
there
are
error,
improvements
and
circulation
in
the
in
the
emergency,
shelter.
E
And
then
the
other
question
is
have
has
giac
youth
programming
and
community
outreach
worker
money
been
spent,
but
we
haven't
been
vouchered
yet.
F
Yes,
we
just
approved
that
a
memorandum
of
agreement
between
the
ira
and
the
city
controllers
office
they
submitted
cost
documentation.
We
should
be
in
position
to
pay
out
the
65
000
in
the
next
major
check,
cutting
process.
Okay,.
C
B
I
see
donna's
question
about
is:
go
ithaca.
The
rebranded
bike
walk
tompkins,
honestly
off
the
top
of
my
head.
I
don't
remember
it's
a
program
of
so
I
will
check
into
that.
I
know
that
they
they're,
you
know
there
was
staffing
change
at
bike,
walk
tom
fans
too,
so
I'll
follow
up
on
that
and
laura.
I
was
not
aware
that
there
was
a
new
executive
director.
I've
been
communicating
with
jennifer
dodson
who's
been
the
executive
director,
so
I
hadn't
heard
that
yet.
G
Thanks
denise
and
I
should
just
clarify:
that's
not,
I
don't
recall.
G
What
jeff's
title
is
it's
not
a
replacement
of
margaret
margaret
is
the
executive
director.
I
I
don't
recall
what
jeff's
title
is.
A
Okay,
any
anything
else.
J
F
Okay,
so
in
terms
of
the
loan
repayment
report,
we
have
two
borrowers
who
were
late
this
month.
It
was
the
thompson's
community
action
program
and
the
downtown
associates
which
is
known
to
us
as
the
canopy
hotel

Thompson's.
F
Community
action
does
rely
on
the
u.s
mail
system
for
their
payments,
both
for
receiving
the
the
billing
for
loans
and
and
for
sending
in
the
payments
and
in
the
past,
that
has
caused
a
delay
where
they
have
been
shown
as
not
making
their
payment
by
the
deadline
date,
we've
emailed
with
them
and
they're
waiting
for
a
response.
But
I
don't
think
there
is
a
long-term
issue
here.
F
I
think
it's
more
of
a
short-term
timing
issue
in
terms
of
the
canopy
hotel
they
have
made
brought
the
loan
current
since,
since
the
report
was
prepared
so
that
we're
okay
there
and
moving
quickly
to
the
lease
report.
Everybody
is
current
as
of
today
and
we
did
get
noticed
from
precision
filters
at
240
cherry
street
that
they
they
are
still
on
board
and
intend
to
acquire
their
property.
So
they
won't
be.
You
know
at
some
point.
F
A
Okay,
the
only
item
I
have
under
the
chairperson
report
is
nels
and
I
hopefully
will
move
forward
with
some
potential
applicants
for
committees.
A
Nels's
time
has
been
a
little
bit
sucked
up
by
things
like
east
hill,
fire
station
and
personal
best,
brewing
and
so
on
over
the
last
few
weeks,
but
I
believe
we
probably
were
anticipating
or
already
have
applicants
for
potentially
neighborhood
investment
and
economic
development
committees.
So
I
think
we'll
coordinate
with
you,
carl
and
we'll
kind
of
go
set
up
some
interviews,
probably
in
august,
when
I
return
from
vacation
as
well
and
hopefully
maybe
can
have
some
people
in
place
to
get
going
as
maybe
as
early
as
september.
A
So
just
an
update
on
that
which
hopefully
is
a
positive
one.
I
have
no
other
report
I'll
see
if
the
mayor
has
a
report.
G
I'll
just
offer
a
few
comments
and
rob
gerhart
the
council
liaison
is
on
vacation.
I
was
very
grateful
that
he
joined
last
night's
special
meeting
of
common
council
and
I'll
just
note.
Last
night's
council
meeting
took
the
place
of
the
august
3rd
council
meeting,
which
has
been
canceled.
We
have
moved
around
some
meeting
dates
due
to
scheduling
vacations
and
at
least
one
time
sensitive
matter
that
I
wanted
to
make
sure
council
was
able
to
weigh
in
and
vote
on
last
night.
G
So
nells
has
already
reported
that
at
last
night's
council
meeting
there
was
the
approval
of
the
ethical
farmers
market.
Lease
amendment
also
approval
of
the
south
albany
street
bridge
replacement,
and
we
are
looking
forward
to
be
able
to
take
advantage
of
federal
funding.
D.O.T
funding.
There
was
no
city
administration
meeting
in
july,
pedc
met
july
20th.
G
There
is
one
proposal
that
is
still
under
discussion,
but
there
are
a
number
of
of
questions
I
was
out
of
town
and
had
not
seen
the
pedc
some
of
the
information
that
was
shared
in
the
pedc
packet
before
it
went
out
that
raised
some
concerns,
but
unfortunately
it
was
after
the
fact
to
be
looking
at
what
was
identified
as
a
draft
a
model
really
for
an
rfp
that
was
in
the
pedc
packet
and
I'm
now
getting
a
number
of
questions
from
individuals
about
that.
G
I
don't
have
any
other
update,
we
are
going
into
budget
season,
so
there
are
already
meetings
on
capitol
projects.
Those
will
continue.
I'm
very
pleased
that
we
are
moving
forward
on
the
east
hill
fire
station
as
a
number
of
people
on
this
call
on
this
meeting
know
that
the
discussions
around
a
new
fire
station,
the
need
for
a
fire
station.
Those
conversations
have
been
taking
place
for
eight
years
and
at
least
eight
years.
So
I'm
very
very
pleased
that
we
are
are
moving
forward.
G
G
So
those
are
the
items
I
can
think
of
to
report
on
right
now,
but
happy
to
also
answer
questions.
Anyone
may
have.
A
Yeah
staff
report.
F
I
don't
have
any
additional
information
and
that
nissan
may
have
something.
I
don't
know
if
she
has
any
issues.
A
Your
vacation
yeah
thank
you
anissa
for
joining
on
your
vacation,
above
and
beyond
the
call
of
duty.
Thank
you
for
being
here.
I
know
it's
also
early
in
the
morning.
So
much
appreciate
it.
Well
then,
I
think
we're
at
the
moment
of
looking
for
a
motion
to
adjourn
as
nells
or
charles
put
on
the
agenda
august.
25Th
is
our
next
scheduled
date,
barring
another
extension
of
the
emergency
order
from
the
governor.
A
We
will
be
in
person,
but
we've
said
that
twice
now
and
have
managed
to
come
back
to
zoom,
but
in
theory
it
expires
again,
and
you
know
we
know
what
the
situation
is
so
we'll
have
to
see
where
the
governor
takes
it.
Other
than
that,
I
would
look
for
a
motion
to
adjourn.
