through

Do
it
any
kind
of
do
any
committee
members
have
any
questions?
Councilmember,
Schrader,
I
think.
B
You,
mr.
chair
No,
no
questions
just
to
comment
on
number
5
on
the
cost
share
just
to
highlight.
This
is
a
great
program
now
as
we're
increasing
the
franchise
fee,
its
businesses
that
have
to
pay
some
of
that,
and
this
is
a
great
program
to
make
sure
that
we're
helping
the
businesses
that
are
doing
the
right
thing.
B
A
A
So
really
it's
available
to
all
property
types
that
are
in
within
the
city,
and
so
this
has
been
hugely
successful
in
with
commercial
businesses,
so
I'm
excited
to
see
it
grow
and
I
would
also
like
to
go
take
a
moment
to
give
a
special
shout
out
to
the
Health
Department
team
who's
responsible
for
bringing
in
that
over
1.1
million
dollars
in
grants,
because
they
are
bringing
an
innovative
home
visiting
home
visiting
work.
So
I
just
wanted
to
take
a
moment
to
give
some
information
about
the
work
that
they're
doing
so.
A
The
Minneapolis
Health
Department
will
be
using
this
grant
to
provide
public
public
health
nurse
home
services
to
Minneapolis
community
members
who
are
at
risk
for
poor
outcomes
in
maternal
and
newborn
health.
The
focus
is
on
families
who,
at
high
risk
for
childhood,
injury,
prematurity,
low
birth
weight,
infant
mortality
and
child
maltreatment,
disproportionate
rates
of
pregnancy,
low,
maternal
education,
low
income
and
high
unemployment.
The
department
will
be
partnering
with
Minnesota
visiting
nurses,
association
and
the
good
wheel.
Good
goodwill,
Easter,
Seals
father
project
to
deliver
nurse
nurse
home,
visiting
services
and
fatherhood
advocacy
work.
A
What's
really
exciting
is
about
the
expansion
historically
there
when
we
talk
about
child
and
family
health,
we're
talking
about
maternal
and
child
in
child
health,
and
so
what
we're
seeing
here
is
that
the
the
father's
home
visiting
pilot
project
will
include
parents
and
child
interaction
and
resources.
An
experienced
case
manager
will
assist
the
father
advocate
with
gaining
skills
and
learning
approaches
to
effectively
engage
dozens
of
fathers.
A
The
father
advocate
will
receive
training
on
community
outreach
and
recruitment,
initial
engagement
and
assessment
of
father's
life
situation,
strengths,
resources
and
barriers
to
affect
to
be
effectively
involved
in
their
child's
life.
So
I
just
wanted
to
name
that
a
because
that's
a
lot
of
money,
that's
being
brought
into
the
city.
So
thank
you
to
the
Health
Department
team
for
all
their
hard
work
and
also
for
constantly
pushing
and
looking
bigger
and
beyond
where
we
currently
are.
So.
Thank
you
so
much
for
that
work.
A
So
I
just
wanted
to
name
that
seeing
no
further
questions,
I
move,
consent,
I,
move
approval
of
the
consent
agenda.
All
those
in
favor,
please
signify
by
saying
aye
aye,
those
opposed
say
no,
the
eyes
have
it
and
that
item
is
approved.
So
our
first
discussion
item
today
is
receiving
and
filing
a
presentation
by
the
chair
and
and
members
of
the
Minneapolis
community
environmental
Advisory
Commission,
reviewing
2017
C
our
activities
and
2018
work
plan
activities,
so
I
am
seeing
Kelly
and
area
and
Neha
as
I
say
that
right
nailed.
D
Afternoon,
chair
Cunningham,
council
members.
Thank
you
for
having
us.
My
name
is
Kelly
movin
I'm,
a
sustainability
program
coordinator
with
the
city
of
Minneapolis
sustainability,
division
and
I
staff,
the
community
environmental,
Advisory,
Commission
or
siak
for
short,
so
I'm
here
today
with
our
CX
chair,
Aaron,
Neha,
to
present
our
annual
update
to
City
Council.
D
So
just
two
quick
overview.
I'm
gonna
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
background
of
siak.
Why
it
exists?
Who
our
members
are?
What
working
groups
are
that
do
kind
of
all
the
work
between
meetings
during
meetings
and
then
aaron
is
going
to
talk
about
some
of
our
ongoing
work?
What
is
the
group
looking
at
now
and
planning
for
the
future
so
as
background
this
committee
has
existed
since
1990,
fairly
long-standing
Commission
and
its
charge
or
obligation
is
to
advise
on
the
environmental
consequences
of
city
policies,
programs
and
projects
within
with
local
and
global
impacts.
D
Ciick
is
made
up
of
19
members,
the
mayor
and
council,
each
of
0.8
members,
and
so
they
each
appoint
two
of
Resident
members,
technical
experts,
environmental
advocates
and
industries
or
companies
having
major
and
act
on
the
environment.
We
also
have
three
seats
set
aside
for
Minneapolis
Public,
Schools,
Hennepin
County
and
the
Minneapolis
Park
and
Recreation
Board.
Currently,
we
are
fully.
We
are
full
as
the
Commission,
with
the
exception
of
the
Minneapolis
Public
Schools,
which
has
been
a
challenge
for
us
in
the
past
to
find
someone
who
is
available
and
interested
to
participate
in
this
commission.
D
Some
of
the
major
activities
from
this
last
year,
so
seiect
being
on
a
two-year
appointment
process
like
all
of
our
boards
and
commissions.
We
are
coming
to
the
mid
or
mid
part
of
the
second
year
of
our
current
roster,
so
this
group
had
a
lot
of
work
that
it
did
together
last
year,
that
included
through
climate
and
energy
work.
They
began
collaboration
in
stronger
partnership
with
the
energy
vision,
Advisory
Committee
of
the
clean
energy
energy
partnership.
D
There
also
have
started
developing
a
platform
around
supporting
electric
vehicles
within
the
city,
the
water
subcommittee
or
pool
party,
as
they
prefer
to
be
called
worked
on
expanding
salt
application
training.
They
wrote
an
article
on
salt
use
that
was
put
in
the
word
wand
newsletter
and
followed
updates
on
the
state's
salt
liability
bill.
D
The
zero
waste
working
group
worked
closely
with
councilmember
Gordon's
office
on
the
bring
your
own
bat
organ
in
ordinance
and
when
that
came
up
for
preemption
through
this
state
worked
on
the
amendments
to
that
ordinance
or
what
recommended
amendments
would
be
if
we
can
no
longer
prohibit
plastic
bags.
What
would
a
reasonable
fee
be?
The
overburden
community's
working
group
has
provided
a
lot
of
input
on
the
green
zones
initiative.
E
C
E
E
Oftentimes,
our
priorities
that
we
end
up
setting
are
set
by
the
people
who
sit
on
the
Commission,
which
doesn't
really
seem
very
community,
focused
in
my
opinion,
so
we're
trying
to
figure
out
some
better
ways
for
us
to
figure
out
what
environmental
issues
really
are
at
the
forefront
of
the
community's
mind.
So
some
of
the
things
we've
been
talking
about
doing
is
how
meetings
with
in
different
wards,
to
hear
what
community
members
have
to
say
to
use
that
to
help
with
setting
our
priorities.
For
example,
the
electric
vehicle
work
that
we've
been
doing.
C
E
That's
not
you
know
the
most
pressing
energy
and
climate
issue
that
the
city
might
be
facing,
so
we're
working
on
trying
to
figure
out
some
better,
better
ways
to
be
more
community
focused
and
I
will
talk
about
that
a
little
bit
towards
the
end
of
the
presentation.
Okay,
thank
you
mm-hmm.
So
the
energy
and
climate
subgroup
is
working
on
electric
vehicle
policy
and
reviewing
the
city's
green
fleet
policy.
E
For
the
water
subcommittee,
we've
been
participating
in
the
water
resources
management
plan.
We
are
hoping
to
set
up
a
meeting
with
key
committees
to
discuss
water
topics
and
issues
looking
more
at
stormwater
BMPs
within
Complete
Streets
policy,
and
we're
continuing
to
follow
up
on
the
upper
harbour
terminal
project.
Just
seeing
how
the
development
plans
are
going
with
that
to
make
sure
that
it
does
include
green
infrastructure
both
for
the
health
of
the
community,
but
also
looking
at
how
water
itself
moves
from
that
site
into
the
Mississippi.
E
And
then
the
zero
waste
subcommittee
is
looking
at
reintroduction
of
the
bring
your
own
bag.
Ordinance
supported
the
expiration
of
the
green
to
go
cop
exemption
looking
at
recycling
and
composting,
both
at
large
residential
and
commercial
facilities,
and
what
the
city
can
do
to
push
recycling
and
composting.
And
then
we've
been
trying
to
work
a
little
bit
more
with
schools
on
recycling
and
composting
too.
E
So
we're
continuing
to
provide
input
for
the
2040
comprehensive
plan.
We
have
been
trying
to
figure
out
how
we,
as
a
committee,
can
advance
conversations
of
racial
equity
and
environmental
justice.
We
are
a
very
white
commission
right
now
from
my
own
perspective
and
how
I
see
people
there's
only
one
person
of
color
on
the
Commission
of
18
people,
so
in
terms
of
representing
the
city
of
Minneapolis
I,
don't
know
that
it's
necessarily
doing
a
great
job,
but
part
of
that,
too,
is
some
of
the
quotas
that
are
set
up
within
our
enabling
resolution.
E
You
know
we
are
only
allowed
to
have
two
resident
appointments
from
both
the
council
and
the
mayor's
office.
That's
less
than
a
quarter
of
the
makeup
of
the
group.
So
one
of
the
things
that
we've
been
doing
quite
strongly
right
now
is
looking
at
our
enabling
resolution
to
start
figuring
out
what
are
some
of
the
changes
we
can
make
so
that
we
don't
just
become
another
white
organization,
pushing
environmental
topics
that
don't
necessarily
make
a
difference.
Where
they're
supposed
to
make
a
difference.
E
We
did
have
a
conversation
from
a
matter
that
started
making
us
think
more
about
youth
appointments
to
as
a
commission,
there
is
quite
a
dichotomy
between
young
professionals
who
don't
yet
have
families
and
then
older
working
professionals
whose
children
have
half
left
it's
hard,
especially
we
as
a
commission
that
only
meets
once
a
month
at
a
time
when
people
will
have
childcare
issues
to
come
and
participate
in.
That
said,
something
that
we're
also
talking
about
a
little
bit.
E
There
are
a
lot
of
things
that
we're
working
on
doing
right
now,
I'm,
not
necessarily
with
with
see
act
I'm
also
outside
of
see
act
I'm.
We
have
been
having
more
detailed
conversations
inside
siak
about
what
our
purpose
is,
how
people
feel
during
meetings
and
about
how
we
can
make
the
space
be
more
inclusive.
E
I
did
notice
when
I
started
as
chair
of
C
app
that
while
there
have
been
some
people
of
color
on
the
Commission
before
they've
left
and
moved
on,
while
there
are
still
some
people
who
are
white
who
have
stayed
on
the
Commission
and
I,
just
noticed
a
pattern
that
the
the
people
who
tend
to
leave
tend
to
be
the
people
of
color
and
trying
to
work
on
how
to
change
that.
Well,
being
a
white
woman.
E
So
it's
definitely
something
that
is
in
the
forefront
of
our
minds.
We
spent
45
minutes
at
the
last
meeting
talking
about
how
to
make
our
meetings
feel
more
inclusive,
and
at
this
next
meeting
we're
gonna
be
talking
more
about
group
norms.
I
forget
what
else
we
said,
but
our
plan
is
to
have
some
suggested
changes
to
our
enabling
resolution
by
the
September
meetings
and
in
the
hopes
that
those
can
be
implemented
when
committee
selection
starts
in
the
fall
great.
F
E
E
F
The
other
thing
also
is
our
neighborhood
and
community
relations
department,
which
would
have
a
lot
of
ideas
too
so
I'm
the
head.
Nodding
is
enough
for
me
to
know
that
you,
if
you
haven't
already
been
coordinating
this,
might
be
a
good
opportunity
to
to
do
that
and
see
if
they
might
have
some
ideas
and
suggestions
about
how
to
restructure
the
group
I'm.
F
Excited
about
having
some
youth
seats
designated
on
some
of
our
boards
and
commissions,
even
if
it's
24
under
I
I,
think
we
could
make
the
case
that
it
might
be
worth
doing,
that
in
and
of
itself
and
if
one
not
to
sway
your
group,
but
I
mean
even
if
one
Commission
and
advisory
group
came
forward
and
wanted
to
try
it
out
or
something
like
that.
I
think
that
would
give
us
an
opportunity
to
see
how
how
it
would
work
and
be
good.
E
E
One
thing
that
I
have
been
doing,
though,
is
reaching
out
to
some
of
the
people
of
color,
who
used
to
sit
on
siak
and
having
one-on-one
conversations
with
them
about
what
some
of
their
suggestions
are,
how
they
feel
like
it
can
be
improved
and
what
we
can
do
better
in
the
future.
So
that's
that's
mostly
the
way
that
I've
been
going
at
this
point.
A
So
that
the
end
great
well,
thank
you.
So
much
are
there
any
other
questions
from
my
colleagues
all
right.
Thank
you
so
much
seeing
no
questions,
I
move
to
receive
and
file
this
item.
All
those
in
favor
of
the
motion
please
signify
by
saying
aye
aye,
those
opposed
say
no,
the
eyes
have
it
and
that
item
is
received
and
filed.
Thank
you
so
much.
Our
next
discussion
item
is
receiving
and
filing
a
presentation
on
the
south
side
and
north
side
green
zones.
A
D
Again,
chair
council
members,
I'm
still
Kelly
momen,
with
the
sustainability
division,
so
I've
been
asked
by
chair
Cunningham
to
provide
an
update
on
the
work
of
the
green
zone.
Initiative
and
I
want
to
be
clear
that
this
is
just
a
brief
update,
we're
not
asking
for
any
council
action
at
this
time.
So
what
is
a
green
zone?
How
many
of
you,
but
not
all
of
you,
were
here
for
this
beginning
of
this
and
I
just
wanted
to
start
by
offering
the
definition
so
how
the
city
of
Minneapolis
looks
at.
D
It
is
as
a
place-based
policy
initiative
aimed
at
improving
the
health
and
supporting
economic
development
or
well-being
using
environmentally
conscious
efforts
in
communities
that
face
the
cumulative
effects
of
environmental
pollution
as
well
as
social,
political
and
economic
vulnerability.
We're
really
talking
about
our
environmental
justice
communities
and
how
we
really
authentically
work
with
them
to
improve
not
only
the
environmental
conditions,
but
also
that
support
their
health
and
economic
well-being.
D
This
initiative
started
within
the
city
in
2013,
while
we
were
developing
our
climate
action
plan.
A
group
of
environmental
justice
advocates
came
to
the
city
asking
to
participate
because
they
had
not
been
invited
to
the
table
thus
far
and
recommended
that
the
green
zones
be
a
strategy
introduced
into
the
climate
action
plan.
Among
many
other
recommendations
that
were
adopted
in
2016
city
council
established
the
Green
Zone
workgroup,
and
this
was
a
citywide
group
that
was
looking
at
developing
the
citywide
framework
for
how
we
really
start
this
work
from
their
recommendations.
D
Almost
exactly
a
year
ago,
in
April
of
2017,
the
north
side
and
south
side,
green
zone
areas
were
adopted
so
from
that
20-17
work.
These
were
the
larger
frame
worker
goals
that
that
green
zone
work
group
came
up
with
with
centering
equity
and
preventing
gentrification
at
the
core
of
the
work,
with
the
broader
environmental
focus
areas
surrounding
that
one
of
the.
D
What
was
set
forth
for
that
group
to
work
on
was
to
come
up
with
designation
criteria
as
well,
and
so
this
is
all
of
the
data
that
we
use
to
pull
together
to
really
establish
a
baseline
of
where
we
were
related
to
those
goals
that
they
recommended
when
we
overlaid
all
of
that
data
together.
This
is
what
came
forward
really
identifying
two
areas
of
the
city
that
would
most
benefit
from
being
designated
as
green
zones.
So
from
that
that
is
where
City
Council
made
the
designation
of
the
north
side
and
south
side
Green
Zone.
D
In
May
of
last
year,
we
received
funding
from
the
McKnight
Foundation
and
the
funders
Network
nationally
and
were
directed
to
use
these
resources
to
support
the
Southside
Green
Zone
task
force.
So
in
October
that
task
force
was
established
and
we
were
able
to
hire
facilitators
to
help
us
with
that
initiative.
In
November
of
this
past
year,
working
with
council
member
Gordon
and
others
within
the
city,
we
were
able
to
approach
the
community
action
partnership
of
Hennepin
County
for
resources
to
support
the
northern
Green
Zone
through
the
northern
metals
Advisory
Committee.
D
Just
as
a
reminder
these
these
are
the
boundaries
of
the
Southside
Green
Zone.
So
it
includes
the
four
Phillips
neighborhoods
and
most
of
Cedar
Riverside.
These
are
our
Southside
Task
Force
members.
These
portraits
were
done
by
Mike
Hoyt
in
witzy
ASCO.
We're
really
happy
with
this,
and
we've
created
sort
of
a
profile
of
our
task
force
members
for
them
to
as
one
way
to
get
to
know
each
other.
D
The
charge
of
the
Southside
task
force
is
here
in
front
of
you.
It's
really
to
develop
an
action-oriented
work
plan
for
the
Southside
Green
Zone,
and
we
are
looking
in
this
work
plan
to
identify
actions
that
really
go
to
the
core
of
what
a
green
zone
is
promoting
the
health
and
economic
well-being
using
environmentally
beneficial
strategies.
We
want
to
get
a
lot
out
of
any
one
of
these
strategies,
so
the
Task
Force
has
been
meeting
more
than
monthly
since
October
to
come
up
with
these
recommendations.
D
The
other
thing
that
I'll
mention
here
is
at
the
bottom,
so
we're
saying
within
the
broader
green
zone
initiative
recognizing
that
the
city
plays
a
role
as
a
has
a
part
in
this.
But
there
is
a
broader
community
work.
That's
happening
outside
of
what
our
municipal
activities
are,
and
so
the
Southside
Green
Zone
task
force
is
really
focused
on
directing
the
city's
work
and
what
the
recommendations
are
for
how
the
city
should
be
a
partner
play
a
role
and
the
broader
community
work
on
the
Southside
Green
Zone.
D
These
are
the
four
areas
that
are
coming
out
of
our
action
plan
or
the
work
plan
so
and
I
just
want
to
say,
relate
it
to
the
conversation
that
happened
at
the
city
council
housing
study
session
last
week.
Green
zones
has
been
spending
months,
thinking
about
how
to
define
a
healthy
and
thriving
community,
which
is
a
comic
that
came
out
of
that
meeting
last
week
and
thinking
about
what
are
the
metrics
or
the
characteristics
that
define
a
healthy
and
thriving
community.
How
do
we
prevent
gentrification
and
Center
equity?
D
So
we
do
have
groups
of
community
members
and
staff
coming
together
and
having
conversations
around
those
questions
that
were
raised
by
Council
last
week,
I'm
not
going
to
get
into
any
of
the
specific
ear
recommendations
within
these
areas
because
they
haven't
been
adopted
yet
by
the
group,
but
I
will
be
bringing
for
those
forward
with
the
task
force
in
the
coming
months.
I
want
to
note
how
important
having
the
resources
for
the
has
been.
We
were
able
to
hire
Lacroix
de
lumen
consulting
to
facilitate
the
task
force
meetings.
D
Not
only
have
they
been
fabulous
facilitators,
but
they
have
really
helped
us
kind
of
craft
this
work
and
make
it
and
enable
it
to
move
forward
from
meeting
to
meeting
we're
asking
a
lot
out
of
our
task
force
members
they
keep
hearing
about
how
rushed
the
work
is.
There
is
so
much
coming
in
front
of
them
every
month
they
have
less
than
a
year
to
tackle
all
of
those
topics
that
you
saw
before
and
a
lot
of
that
is
bringing
them
up
to
speed
on
what's
happening.
D
As
a
group,
including
myself,
the
six
of
us
operate
is
what
we
call
the
design
team
and
we
meet
at
least
once
every
two
weeks
to
talk
about
how
we're
going
to
set
up
the
next
meeting,
how
the
community
engagement
information
gets
brought
into
that
work.
The
community,
the
community
input
at
the
meetings
and
the
events
that
hope
and
LSP
are
hosting
are
the
direct
words
that
get
crafted
and
put
into
the
work
plan
and
the
task
force
gets
to
chew
on
them.
But
really
everything
is
brought
in
at
this.
D
D
So
that's
my
update
for
the
south
side
on
the
north
side,
so
I've
been
getting
a
lot
of
questions
about
this,
because
it's
about
a
much
less
visible
effort,
thus
far
when
the
Green
Zone
areas
were
adopted
last
year.
We
also
knew
that
there
was
interest
from
council
to
establish
a
northern
metals
advisory
committee
with
the
two
areas
being
almost
essentially
the
same
geographically.
D
It
felt
that
it
would
be
challenging
to
have
two
groups
both
from
a
staff
capacity
and
also
there'd,
be
interests
that
would
overlap
from
the
groups
and
it'd
be
hard
to
kind
of
differentiate.
What
gets
handled
and
one
group
versus
the
other,
because
their
interests
were
so
overlapping.
So
what
we're
doing
going
forward
is
with
this,
these
resources
from
Community
Action
Partnership
of
Hennepin
County
they're
able
to
hire
folks
from
the
public
policy
project
in
a
JCC,
which
is
a
recently
formed
environmental
justice
group
up
in
the
north
side.
D
To
facilitate
and
do
engagement
around
the
northern
metals
Advisory
Committee
and
then
also
the
north
side
green
zone,
and
this
funding
is
for
a
period
of
two
years,
so
we're
now
figuring
out
with
the
consultant
and
the
health
department
and
sustainability.
How
that
works
gets
timed
out.
So,
starting
with
the
northern
metals
Advisory
Committee
kind
of
kicking
off
and
starting
to
wrestle
with
how
to
spend
the
$600,000
from
the
northern
metals
consent
decree.
And
then
what
does
it
look
like
to
move
into
the
broader
topics
of
the
north
side?
Green
Zone?
So
I?
F
Don't
I
just
wanted
to
acknowledge
the
great
work
that's
gone
into
this
I
guess.
I
did
have
a
question
who
sketched
the
portraits
of
the
consultants
there,
because
that
was
a
unique
way
to
present
some
information
to
us
did
I
fall
valuable,
yeah.
D
So
the
idea
for
that
came
from
one
of
our
consultants
facilitators
at
on
day,
and
she
thought
there
has
to
be
a
really
good
eye
thing
to
get
folks
to
know
each
other.
So,
in
addition
to
having
the
portraits,
we
have
a
little
information
about
them.
It's
almost
like
a
written
face
book
for
our
task
force
members
and
it
was
done
by
Mike
White
and
with
she
asked.
Oh
nice.
F
Nice
well
I
really
am
impressed
with
this
outside
green
zone.
How
it's
gone
so
far.
I
think
this
could
really
be
a
model
for
others
to
follow.
I
also
think
it's
wonderful
that
you're
presenting
this
at
the
same
time
where
we
had
the
presentation
with
siak,
because
I
think
a
lot
of
what
this
is
is
what
CN
was
helping
guide
us
towards
last
year
and
I'm
excited
to
hear
about
more
progress
on
the
north
side
green
zone
as
things
move
ahead
and
I'm
glad
we
have
some
resources,
so
we
can
also
get
some
assistance
there.
G
You
mr.
chair,
so
I
do
think
that
this
is
a
very
avant-garde
type
of
project.
There's
not
a
lot
of
cities
across
the
nation
that
have
done
what
we've
set
out
to
do
and
I
believe
that
the
articulation
around
addressing
gentrification
in
conjunction
with
a
anti
environmental
racism
program
is
also
pretty
dynamic
and
and
probably
new
in
at
that
level
of
kind
of
Community,
Development
and
environmental
justice
work.
So
a
lot
of
times
a
lot
of
the
turbulence
that
we
see
around
these
policy
initiatives
and
directives
on
the
council.
G
Our
reflection
of
the
fact
that
we're
kind
of
charting
new
territory
and
we're
kind
of
opening
up
a
lot
of
opportunities
for
people
in
ways
that
haven't
been
done
before
so
so.
I
think
this
is
going
to
be
an
extremely
important
for
the
city,
not
only
for
the
benefit
of
our
residents
and
and
making
sure
that
our
our
city
is
growing
in
an
equitable
way
in
a
sustaining,
a
sustainable
way,
but
I
also
see
it
as
adding
to
the
national
conversation
and
discourse
around
these
kinds
of
projects.
So
I'm
curious.
D
Cunningham
councilmember,
Cano,
absolutely,
and
that
has
been
the
I-
mean
the
center
of
every
conversation
of
this
task
or
some
of
the
ideas
or
ones
that
you
have
already
heard
of
through
other
avenues
and
it's
related
to
housing
costs.
And
how
do
we
hold
landlords
in
particular
accountable?
But
how
do
we
also
create
opportunities,
more
opportunities
and
more
unique
opportunities
for
ownership,
so,
whether
that's
through
cooperative
models,
more
land,
there's
been
a
lot
of
conversation
around
land,
trust
and
I.
D
Think
one
of
the
challenging
dynamics
of
this
group
is
the
strong
interest
in
healthy
food
access
and
the
ability
to
garden
within
community
and
having
that
land
access,
but
also
understanding
the
need
for
demand
for
affordable
housing,
and
you
can't
build
you
know
you
could
maybe
put
a
rooftop
garden
on
a
development,
but
you
can't
necessarily
have
both
all
the
time,
and
so
this
group
has
also
been
wrestling
with
the
tensions
of
their
own
and
I.
Think
to
the
other
point
of
just
the
broader
gentrification.
D
How
do
we
make
improvements
in
the
community
without
causing
displacement,
is
really
focusing
on
investing
in
the
existing
residents
and
businesses,
rather
than
creating
land
or
opportunities
that
are
of
interest
to
other
developments
coming
in,
so
it
may
be
a
slower,
but
hopefully
more
organic
process
and
I
look
to
the
leadership
of
the
city
to
help
us
in
figuring
out.
How
do
we
do
that
very
intentionally
and
and
very
much
focused
on
putting
the
resources
back
in
the
community
yeah.
G
And
I
get
a
lot
of
comments
about
that
in
relation
to
the
the
city's
development
project
at
the
roof,
old
roof
depot
site
and
there's
always
the
question
of
like
well.
How
does
this
fit
in
with
green
zones?
How
does
this
fit
with
green
zones?
So
I
think
we
have
to
smooth
that
out
and
figure
out
how
that
connection
becomes
more
organic
and
more
integrated.
G
Aside
from
that
I'm
curious,
it
seems
to
me
like
successful
Green.
Zone
efforts
include
anchor
institutions
and
organizations,
include
you
know,
corporate
interests
and
maybe
university-based
research
and
sort
of
like
this
coalition,
of
maybe
unlikely
allies
coming
together
to
really
solidify
and
and
implement
that
coordinated
development
strategy.
That's
grounded
on
environmental
justice.
Is
there
a
conversation
about
that
here
with
with
the
green
zones
like?
Are
we
are
we
thinking
that
this
is
going
to
be
like
a
package
deal
where
the
city
brings
in
some?
G
F
F
G
D
Councilmembers
we're
not
quite
at
the
point
of
having
recommendations
as
detailed
as
that.
What
I
can
say
is
we
are
bringing
in
some
of
those
institutional
partners
such
as
Abbott,
Northwestern
Hospital
has
been
very
involved
in
attending
our
meetings
and
open
to
talking
about.
How
can
they
that
are,
you
know,
they're,
very
interested
in
being
a
part
of
the
neighborhood
they're
kind
of
smack
dab
in
the
middle
of
the
green
zone.
We've
also
had
participation
from
folks
at
from
the
mint
at
program.
Minnesota
Technical,
Assistance
Program
at
the
U.
D
They
do
a
lot
of
you
know
putting
researchers
and
students
into
different
industries
and
businesses
to
figure
out
how
they
might
reduce
their
environmental
impact.
So
Smith
foundry
had
an
intern
last
year.
Looking
at
some
of
those
potential
improvements,
there's
so
much
activity
going
on,
particularly
with
those
organizations
and
community
that
have
been
there
for
years
and
have
been
mobilizing
that
part
of
it
is
just
like
getting
a
grasp
on
all
the
work
that's
already
happening,
and
how
do
we
coordinate
better
and
support
some
of
that
work?
That's
on
the
ground.
G
Mean
it's
great
that
you're
engaging
Abid
and
I
think
if
we
could,
you
know
figure
out
ways
that
the
council
and
the
city
as
a
whole
can
be
our
weight
can
be
brought
forward
to
kind
of
help
solidify
some
more
of
those
partnerships.
I
think
long
term
would
be
really
good
to
try
to
accelerate
the
work
of
green
zones
by
you
know
creating
this
coalition
that
can
come
together
to
really
sustain
and
and
support
the
community
driven
vision
that
is
being
put
forward.
So,
thank
you
so
much
for
all
your
work.
This
is
really
cool.
B
C
Also,
an
organization
called
nexus
community
partners
which
operates
a
board
and
commissions,
Leadership,
Institute
and
and
I
would
I
would
encourage
you
guys
to
look
to
them
for
graduates
from
their
program.
I
mean
they
are
really
trying
to
place
their
graduates
in
these
types
of
commissions
and
boards
to
be
able
to
to
bring
the
voice
of
equity
and.
C
F
F
Another
issue
or
question
as
the
discussion
was
going
onward
and
it
has
to
do
with
resources
for
the
green
zones
and
it
has
to
do
with
the
budget
this
year
and
is
there
a
sense
that
there
will
be
some
things
that
might
relate
to
the
city
budget?
Our
departments
involved
in
this
and
engaged
and
trying
to
get
a
handle
on
how
they
might
do
that?
I
know.
One
of
the
intentions
always
was.
We
would
start
prioritizing
resources
for
the
green
zones
and
that's
why
we
work
so
hard
identifying
where
we
think
they
should
go.
D
Chair
councilmember,
absolutely
and
right
now
the
task
force
is
going
through
a
prioritization
process.
They
have
over
a
hundred
action
items
that
they've
developed
as
urgent
needs.
Obviously
we
can't
necessarily
take
all
of
those
on
so
we're
in
a
process
of
identifying
which
of
those
are
already
active.
Many
of
the
things
they
didn't
know
that
the
city
was
already
working
on
or
that
another
organization
was
already
working
on.
So
we
have
to
mark
okay,
that
one's
active.
Doesn't
it
need
some
additional
resources?
Maybe
it's
good
as
it
is.
D
We
just
need
to
increase
awareness
of
it.
Maybe
it's
a
brand
new
thing.
Some
of
the
ideas
coming
out
of
the
equity,
anti
displacement
work
is
really
about
process
and
how
the
city
engages
and
when
there,
when
the
city
comes
into
a
community
and
does
work
particularly
these
communities,
are
the
staff
trained.
Do
they
have
the
support
that
they
need?
D
We
have
the
time
that
we
need
to
work
more
at
the
community
scale,
so
those
are
a
lot
of
what's
coming
forward
and
in
terms
of
identifying
what
resources
that
we
would
need
with
that,
it's
really
dependent
and
going
to
depend
on
what
the
top
priorities
are
that
come
forward.
But
we
are
very
conscious
of
budget
conversations
coming
up
shortly
and
we'll
have
more
answers
for
you.
D
Sure
Cunningham
its
we're
trying
to
unite
it
as
much
as
possible,
so
I
have
I
sit
next
to
Tamra
who
chair,
who
staffs
the
food
council
and
have
been
in
communication
with
her
about?
How
can
this
work
really
support?
What's
coming
out
of
the
food
council,
many
of
the
food
council
members
and
the
activities
that
they
do
are
already
working
in
the
green
zones.
I
think
a
lot
of
cameras.
D
Work
on
local
food
systems
generally
is
a
great
example
of
how
we
can
do
our
work
in
the
city
better
within
these
communities
and
identifying
their
needs
and
working
with
community
partners.
So
we're
really
kind
of
looking
to
the
food
council
to
help
shape
what
the
record
recommendations
are
and
hope
that
they
are
supportive
of
food
council
recommendations.
A
Great,
thank
you
and
so
I
actually
live
in
the
north
siting
zone,
and
so
my
neighborhood
is
is
included
and
in
our
neighborhood
is
upper
Harbor
terminal
now
granted
there's
a
line.
You
know,
there's
the
highway
back
that
divides
it,
but
I'm
just
curious
I
mean
McKinley.
Neighborhood
has
included
our
terminals
technically
in
McKinley.
How
does
that
fit
in
that
development
fit
into
the
north
side
with
the
work,
the
north
side,
Green
Zone
work
is
going
to
be
doing
chair.
D
I
have
met
with
Anne
Calvert,
who
staffs
the
process
on
the
city
side,
and
we've
had
some
conversations
about
how
that
works.
That
I
think
it
really
is
hard
to
say
since
I've
been
spending.
Most
of
this
last
year,
focused
on
the
south
side,
Green
Zone
and
we're
just
kind
of
rolling
off
out
the
north
side
efforts
how
what
exactly
that
looks
like
so
I,
don't
have
a
great
answer
for
you
on
that.
D
It's
such
a
huge
development
and
I
know
that
the
city
is
interested
in
it
being
sort
of
even
like,
potentially
and
nationally
recognized
space.
That
would
draw
people
from
all
over
to
come
and
see
the
city.
So
how
that
meets
community
needs,
I
think
is
a
great
tension
and
I
think
there
have
been
some
great
residents
and
organizations
on
the
north
side
who
have
been
advocating
and
asking
those
those
appropriate
questions.
So
hopefully
we
can
support
them
in
this
work.
Okay,.
A
So
thank
you
very
much
do
I
have
any
other
questions
from
my
colleagues
seeing
no
further
questions.
I
move
to
receive
and
file
this
item.
All
those
in
favor
of
the
motion
please
signify
by
saying
aye
aye,
those
opposed
say
no,
the
eyes
have
it
and
that
item
is
received
and
file.
Thank
you
very
much.
Kelly.
Our
third
discussion
item
is
receiving
and
filing
the
contract.
Compliance
division,
2017.
Fourth
quarter
report,
an
annual
summary
Shawn's
creepy
did
I
say
that
right
what.
H
A
H
You
mr.
chair
one
quick,
second
I'll
get
said
yeah.
This
is
actually
my
first
time
presenting
in
front
of
this
committee.
I
have
worked
with
each
of
you
individually,
though,
so
it's
been
a
pleasure
so
far,
I
look
forward
to
continuing
the
term
together.
My
name
is
Sean
Skippy
I'm,
the
director
of
the
contract,
compliance
division.
Just
a
little
bit
of
a
background
on
the
presentation
I'll
be
giving
today,
it's
actually
an
amended
format
a
bit
because
there
was
an
amendment
to
the
ordinance
last
year
about
a
reporting
requirements.
H
H
It's
just
something
moving
forward
to
be
aware
of
part
of
the
reason
for
that
is
we
have
a
data
portal
that
we've
been
working
on
through
tableau
through
the
city,
software
and
I'll,
get
into
that
in
a
little
bit
as
well,
just
a
quick
overview
of
the
contract,
compliance
division
and
the
work
we
do
I
think
it
can
really
be
tied
into
two
primary
prongs.
The
first
is
really
around
the
idea
of
sort
of
the
rising
tide
to
lift
all
broke
all
boats.
H
Those
include
our
prevailing
wage
ordinance
where
we
require
essentially
a
minimum
wage
to
be
paid
on
all
city
construction
contracts,
that
buried
by
trade
and
project.
But
the
idea
is
that
it's
everybody
on
that
project
is
entitled
to
that.
The
requirements
of
that
ordinance
and
the
other
part
of
it
is
a
more
targeted
approach
at
direct
programs
that
are
designed
to
address
some
of
the
historical
discrimination
that's
taking
place
both
along
racial
and
gender
lines,
and
those
are
primarily
around
business.
H
Inclusion,
which
is
the
city's
small
and
underutilized
business
program,
also
section
3
and
then
also
around
workforce
inclusion.
So
I'll
talk
about
some
of
those.
What
our
outcomes
are
for
2017
and
I'll?
Give
you
guys
an
opportunity
to
ask
questions
at
the
end
as
well,
so
the
first
topic
again
as
small
and
minority
small
and
underutilized
business
program
are
minority
and
women
business
inclusion.
H
So
just
some
basic
numbers
for
you
guys
we
had
186
projects
or
contracts
were
reviewed
for
goals
in
2017
of
those
we
had
64
pre-award
reviews
conducted
when
we're
doing
those
pre-award
reviews.
What
we're
looking
for
is
essentially
asking
whether
contractors
either
met
the
map,
the
SUV
p
goals
in
the
contract
or
demonstrated
good-faith
efforts
of
those
64-37
did
commit
to
meeting
the
goals.
H
A
H
Thank
You
mr.
chair,
we,
the
city,
actually
works
as
part
of
a
collaborative
of
a
Minnesota
unified
certification
program,
and
that
includes
the
Met
Council
City
Minneapolis
MnDOT
there
was
no.
There
was
no
goal
for
the
city
as
a
whole.
I
could
do
two
numbers
for
the
certifications
that
took
place
across
all
of
the
certifcate,
all
of
them
all
of
the
Minnesota
Minnesota
unified
certification
program
partners
for
2017.
H
So,
first,
four
years,
summary
of
the
business
inclusion
outcomes
under
small
and
underutilized
business
program,
the
there
were
a
total
of
172
construction
projects,
totaling
645
million
dollars,
7
and
8
percent-
are
the
averages
for
MBEs
and
W
BES
across
that
time.
And
if
you
look
at
these
outcomes,
so
that's
40,
2.7
million
for
minority
and
business
enterprise,
minority
business
enterprises
fifty
point:
seven
million
for
women-owned
businesses.
So
look
what
that
comes
out
to
in
the
actual
dollars.
The
percentages
for
2017
or
6%
for
MBE
and
5%
for
wve.
H
So
I'm
going
to
sit
now
and
talk
about
workforce
inclusion.
This
is
essentially
the
labor
force
on
city
construction
contracts.
So
we
talked
a
little
bit
about
the
business
side.
This
is
the
employee
side.
So
again,
this
is
a
four
year
summary
in
comparison
on
closed
projects
during
during
each
of
these
years.
So
over
that
time,
the
four
years
summary
there
were
over
four
million
total
project
hours.
There
were
employee
hours
worked
during
that
time.
H
Two
hundred
two
thousand
seven
hundred
sixty
four
hours
of
5
percent
or
performed
by
females
and
eight
hundred
forty
thousand
nine
hundred
thirty-eight
were
performed
by
minorities.
So
twenty-one
percent
in
that
field,
this
this
one
for
2017,
we
were
at
four
percent
female
and
twenty
four
percent
minority,
one
quick
caveat
or
one
quick
addition
to
these
numbers
in
July
of
2017,
the
the
Department
of
Human
Rights,
actually
implemented
new
goals
for
the
region.
H
They
were,
they
remained
at
32
percent
on
the
minority
side,
but
they
actually
jumped
up
to
20
percent
on
the
female
side,
and
so
we
brought
that
forward
around
the
same
time
period
last
year
to
this
council
and
it
was
approved
to
be
effective
in
October
of
last
year,
and
so
some
of
the
increases
that
we've
seen
them
on
the
minority
side,
we're
hoping
to
see
continued
on
the
female
side
as
well.
Moving
forward.
H
Additional
compliance
areas
that
we
work
in
affirmative
action
plans.
We
require
every
contractor
doing
business
with
the
city
for
on
a
contract
over
$100,000
to
have
an
approved
affirmative
action
plan
on
file
with
the
city.
We
reviewed
and
approved
147
in
2017.
In
addition,
there's
the
HUD
section,
3
program
we
process
and
approved
three
section:
three
resident
applications
and
three
section:
3
business
applications
as
well,
and
then,
on
the
prevailing
wage
side,
we
recovered
twelve
thousand
five
hundred
thirty
seven
dollars
for
twenty
six
workers
on
twelve
projects
of
the
city.
H
Regarding
the
reporting
that
I
talked
about
earlier
and
that
they
aport
'el,
this
is
I
got
some
information
that
this
is
currently
in
the
final
stages
of
approval.
So
this
portal
is
actually
built.
It's
ready
and
it'll
be
giving
real-time
data
on
projects
that
the
division
is
closed,
and
so
it
will
be
available
to
the
public,
obviously,
of
course
available
to
the
council.
Anyone
that
look
pushes
to
look
at
that.
So
we
look
forward
to
that
enhanced
reporting
as
well,
and
that
is
something
that
we
should
have
approved
very
soon.
H
H
So
this
is
the
dashboard
essentially,
and
it
just
gives
real-time
data
about
projects
that
the
division
is
closed
and
it
offers
a
variety
of
ways
to
look
at
the
data,
one
of
them.
Of
course,
what
you
see
before
you
in
a
map
where
you
can
just
hover,
and
you
can
look
at
specific
projects,
that
the
city
is
monitored
and
reviewed,
and
this
just
really
gives
you
a
project-by-project
layout
of
how
that
particular
project
performed.
H
F
F
H
Mr.
chair
council,
member
garden,
yes,
thank
you
for
that
question.
I
certainly
noticed
that
as
well.
One
quick
caveat
with
that
and
I
certainly
I
agree
if
the
downward
trend,
however
I,
would
know
just
a
quick
caveat
with
our
reporting
requirements.
We
do
report
here
on
projects
where
we
set
a
goal,
and
so
I
have
personally
been
more
intentional
about
setting
a
goal
on
a
contract.
Even
if
it's
a
really
small
goal,
I've
set
a
couple
of
goals
that
were
1%
actually
a
couple
of
the
good-faith
efforts.
H
So
it
is
true
that
minority-owned
businesses
actually
do
a
little
bit
better
on
city
contracts.
That's
actually
a
bit
of
a
anomaly
that
the
city
of
Minneapolis
has
and
I
think.
That's,
probably
because
we
do
a
two
pronged
approach
where
we
set
a
minority
minority
business
goal
and
a
women-owned
business
goal
on
each
contract.
So
I
hope
that
context
helps
but
yeah
I.
Definitely
I
do
agree
that,
generally
we
want
that
trend
to
be
in
a
different
direction
and
hopefully
holistically.
The
disparity
study
and
other
numbers
will
continue
to
show
that
I
think.
F
A
Thank
you,
I
have
a
question
so
I
admit
after
earlier
about
specific
goals
and
I
was
wondering
now
with
the
disparity
study.
Will
there
be
space
now
to
set
goals
like
we
want
to
have
at
least
20
or
25
per
year
of
new
certified,
MBEs
or
W
bees,
or
we
want
to
reach
25
percent
women
participation
or
something
of
the
sort?
Are
we
gonna
now
that
we
have
those
numbers
and
baselines?
Is
it
possible
for
us,
as
a
city,
to
explore
setting
goals
that
we
aim
towards
Thank.
H
You
mr.
chair
and
members,
members
of
the
committee,
I
I,
think
that
certainly
is
possible.
The
one
of
the
things
I
will
talk
about
that
we
mentioned
will
mention
that
we
did
a
lot
of
work
on
in
2017.
Was
the
governor
governor
Dayton
had
an
initiative
to
do
the
small
business
contracting
portal
and
so
that
actually
combines
certification
for
small
businesses.
Small
businesses,
small
businesses,
can
now
apply
through
the
targeted
group
business
veterans,
preference
program
which
are
state
state
certification
programs,
there's
the
sort
of
cert
program
through
the
city
of
st.
H
Paul
and
then
there's
a
Minnesota
unified
certification
program.
So
firms
applying
for
certification
can
multiply
it
through
all
three
of
those
programs
at
once
and
that's
an
opportunity
to
increase
that
certification
pool
as
well.
But,
yes,
we
can
certainly
review
implementing
goals
for
the
number
of
certified
firms
in
2018
and
beyond
as
well.
Okay,.
A
H
H
A
No
further
questions
I
would
like
to
make
the
motion
to
receive
and
file
this
item.
All
of
those
in
favor
signify
by
saying
aye,
those
opposed
say
no,
the
eyes
have
it
and
our
fourth
and
final
discussion
item
of
this
meeting
is
receiving
and
filing
a
presentation
on
Superbowl
52
right
is
52
4th
ball.
Yes
from
the
Minneapolis
Health
Department
/,
Environmental,
Health
Division,
dann
huff
director
of
environmental
health.
We'll
begin
the
presentation,
mr.
huffy.
Take
it
away.
I
Thank
You
Kara,
Cunningham,
council
members
and
I
want
to
welcome
my
colleagues
there
the
real
reason
that
we're
presenting
today
a
successful
operation.
These
are
folks
that
are
your
health
inspectors
in
the
city.
As
you
know,
we
had
a
Super
Bowl
here
in
town
and
wanted
to
talk
about
how
environmental
health
worked
with
our
restaurants
and
our
hotels
to
make
sure
we
had
a
successful
event.
We
had
a
two-part
mission.
Our
first
part
was
food
safety.
I
That's
what
we
think
of
as
health
inspectors
were
checking
temperatures
were
telling
people
to
wash
their
hands,
but
we
also
work
on
food,
defense
and
food.
Defense
is
a
newer
line
of
work
for
us
and
this
is
preventing
intentional
tampering,
adulteration
and
terrorism
within
our
food
supply.
This
was
and
working
with
the
FDA
and
the
FBI.
I
In
order
to
do
this
operation,
which
really
was
a
metro,
wide
operation
working
with
federal
state
and
local
partners,
we
had
to
do
a
lot
of
planning
and
a
lot
of
coordination
to
ensure
that
we
had
a
seamless
operation
and
I
want
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
how
we
changed
even
how
we
approach
our
work.
With
this
here's
Eduardo
or
dr.
Martinez
he's
one
of
our
happy
food
inspectors
here,
our
routine
food
inspections,
day-to-day.
It's
a
lot
like
an
annual
physical.
We
go
into
an
establishment.
We
look
at
everything.
I
We
write
a
report
and
we
say
work
on
these
things
and
we'll
be
back
in
a
year.
Just
like
your
doctor,
says,
lose
weight,
exercise
more
come
back
and
see
me
next
year,
well
for
a
high,
a
a
security
event
like
this.
We
adopted
the
FDA's
procedure
which
they
use
for
things
such
as
the
Olympics
or
the
presidential
inauguration,
and
instead
of
just
coming
in
writing
up
a
report
and
leaving
we're
a
lot
more
like
a
personal
trainer.
I
Yes,
that
is
eduardo
on
the
right,
as
well
as
the
left
as
the
personal
trainer
there
we
actually,
if
someone
is
having
trouble
with
maintaining
temperature,
we
say:
okay,
where
are
you
in
your
process?
Let's
heat
the
food
back
up,
we're
gonna
help
you
cool
it
properly,
so
that
you
can
serve
it
as
opposed
to
having
to
toss
it.
It's
day-by-day
coaching
with
our
establishments.
This
is
really
important,
because
so
many
of
our
local
vendors
were
able
to
participate
in
the
Super
Bowl,
it's
a
big
difference
when
I
sell.
I
You
know
my
we're
at
a
be
a
festival
and
I
may
have
a
few
hundred
customers
to
where
I'm
gonna
be
at
the
NFL
tailgate
and
I'm
serving
eleven
thousand
people
for
one
meal.
We
work
very
closely
with
our
local
operators.
In
fact,
we
did
day-by-day
inspections
as
they
were,
preparing
the
food
every
step
of
the
way,
coaching
them
through
it.
I
I
Obviously
we
had
a
lot
of
meetings
and
we
also
worked
on
common
documents
so
that
Bloomington
in
Hennepin
County,
when
they
inspected
as
part
of
this
operation,
used
the
same
inspection
form
that
we
did.
We
just
put
our
logo
on
it
as
opposed
to
theirs.
So
we
had
common
documents
common
platform.
This
is
really
important
because,
as
you
might
imagine,
people
move
across
boundaries
when
selling
food.
We
also
put
a
lot
of
work
on
food
defense.
We
develop
new
protocols.
What
do
we
do
if
an
inspector
sees
something
that
is
suspicious?
I
We
develop
pocket
cards
outlining
here
are
the
steps
you
take
and
we're
very
fortunate
to
have
partners
such
as
the
food
protection
and
defense
Institute,
which
is
at
the
U
of
M,
and
they
worked
with
us
with
the
FBI
and
Minnesota
Department
of
Health
to
generate
some
tabletops.
We
had
a
tabletop
at
the
US
bank.
I
We
also
looked
a
lot
of
other
things,
because
health
inspectors
are
in
born
and
lodging
and
hotels
we
trained
on
human
trafficking,
and
this
was
a
metro,
wide
effort
with
Washington
County
Bloomington
Minneapolis
Hennepin
County
Sheriff's
Department,
we're
about
80
regional
inspectors
were
trained
on
the
signs
of
human
trafficking.
We
also
work
on
food
donation.
There's
a
myth
out
there
that
the
Health
Department
won't.
Let
people
donate
used
food
or
leftover
food,
and
that's
not
true.
I
We
just
have
to
do
it
correctly,
so
we
worked
with
Hennepin
County,
develop
protocols
and
from
our
survey
about
40%
of
our
vendors
did
donate
leftover
food,
which
is
good
for
our
waste
stream,
but
also
those
who
need
to
eat
a
lot
of
things
took
place
even
before
January
1
was
intensive,
focus
on
US
Bank
Stadium.
We
did
seven
sweep
inspections
starting
in
September.
I
We
asked
a
lot
of
training
we
trained
over
a
thousand
food
workers,
free
training.
We
were
going
to
be
either
handling
or
serving
food.
During
the
Superbowl
events,
a
lot
of
our
work
went
into
identifying
and
tracking
vendors.
We
had
a
lot
of
vendors.
We
had
eight
NFL
sanction
events
that
were
in
Minneapolis
plus
about
150,
private
events,
these
private
parties
and
what
we
did
with
each
one
of
our
vendors
is.
We
actually
did
a
site
visit
with
him
and
we
did
an
interview
with
them
and
we
had
him
fill
out
a
form.
I
We
talked
about
things
such
as
food
safety.
We
talked
about
food
defense
and
talked
about
how
our
process
is
going
to
work.
Considering
that
it's
a
metro,
wide
effort,
everybody
used
this
form
Hennepin
County,
would
follow
up
on
a
vendor
who
would
be
serving
at
the
US
Bank
Stadium
if
it
was
in
their
jurisdiction
once
they
had,
that
form
filled
out
and
done
the
interview
they
passed
it
to
us.
We
had
this
seamless
as
if
we're
almost
one
agency,
it
was
really
a
wonderful
partnership.
I
The
USDA
food
and
Safety
Inspection
Service
went
into
the
manufacturing
facilities
and
processing
facilities
that
would
be
serving
meat
and
eggs
to
these
events
and
actually
did
sampling
looking
for
bioterrorism
agents
as
well
as
specific
pathogens.
So
the
hotdogs
at
the
US
Bank
Stadium
had
been
sampled
now,
unfortunately,
the
first
couple
weeks
of
January
we
had
this
is
what
we
deal
with
in
health:
birth
norovirus.
I
We
had
four
outbreaks,
all
at
large
establishments,
with
a
lot
of
staff,
so
one
hundred
hundred
and
fifty
people
on
staff-
and
we
have
more
Norrell
outbreaks
in
the
first
two
weeks
of
January
than
we
normally
get
in
a
whole
season.
That
means
it
was
out
there.
It's
extremely
contagious.
It
is
often
spread
by
food
workers
and
we
wanted
to
make
sure
it
did
not
interfere
with
the
Super
Bowl.
So
to
that
end
we
did
a
lot
of
Education.
I
We
took
a
day
where
every
health
inspector,
just
blanketed
downtown
met
with
bars
and
with
restaurants,
talked
about
norovirus
talked
about
human
trafficking
talked
about
different
educational
resources.
We
have
work
on
our
newsletters
really
got
the
word
out
there
that
hey
norovirus
is
out
there.
We
got
to
stop
it
outdoor
vendors,
you
know
we
have
about
450
outdoor
events
every
year
that
we
inspect
for
food,
but
most
of
those
are
not
in
the
winter,
and
we've
never
had
an
outdoor
festival
in
the
winter.
I
That
goes
for
ten
days
long
and,
as
you
know,
it's
cold
and
water
freezes
normally
in
Minnesota
and
the
weather.
Well,
water
is
pretty
important
for
health
inspections
because
we
gotta
wash
things
wash
hands.
So
we
worked
with
the
vendor
on
Nicollet
Avenue
to
make
sure
that
they
had
water
everywhere
they
had
vendors.
So
we
had
large
500
gallon
containers
of
water,
almost
like
old
Depot's
of
water
all
along,
and
we
worked
with
our
food
trucks
to
make
sure
that
they
were
winterized
or
had
a
water
plan.
I
We
had
eight
inspectors
from
Hennepin
and
one
from
Anoka
join
us
for
this
operation
extremely
helpful
and
the
partners
we
had
here
were
just
phenomenal
and
we
got
into
it.
This
is
our
department
Operations
Center,
every
one
of
those
folders
represents
one
of
the
places
that
we
were
doing.
Food
float
inspections
that's
every
day,
twice
a
day.
It's
a
lot
of
places
and
we
had
just
a
great
team.
They're
our
age
stock
operated
usually
opened
about
7:00.
In
the
morning
the
latest
we
ran
was
2:30
in
the
morning,
because
people
like
to
eat
late.
I
Overall,
we
had
a
31
health
inspectors.
Working
on
this,
the
FDA,
the
Federal
Drug
Administration,
were
incredibly
good
partners.
We
had
one
of
the
local
FDA
staff
who
worked
with
us
every
step
of
the
way
he
was
here
every
day
for
the
10
days,
when
I
with
inspectors.
He
was
our
technical
adviser.
We
could
ask
him
questions.
He
worked
us
through
things
and
he
was
a
great
resource
because
he
literally
was
in
charge
of
the
food
safety
for
the
presidential
inauguration,
so
really
high
caliber.
I
We
also
were
at
our
Mac
and
the
great
thing
about
the
Mac
was
we
were
able
to
talk
Metro
wide
with
whatever
is
happening.
If
there
was
a
road
issue,
if
there
was
a
transportation
issue,
a
law
enforcement
issue
and
every
day
we
had
a
call
with
all
of
our
partners
to
talk
about
hey.
Did
you
have
that
vendor
in
Hennepin
County?
What
happened
did
they
come
here?
Where
are
we?
We
literally
had
one
vendor
that
was
discovered
by
a
Maplewood
inspector
riding.
I
Her
bike
know
why
she
was
riding
her
bike
in
January,
but
we're
all
for
it
and
saw
a
kitchen
that
she
knows
is
he's
normally
vacant
in
the
wintertime,
because
it's
a
golf
course
fully
operational
bounds
up.
They
were
serving
during
one
of
the
events,
so
she
sat
there
and
watched
them.
Do
the
whole
thing
great
partnership
here,
staff
in
our
Mac,
one
of
the
things
that
we
paid
special
attention
to
was
protecting
the
food
supply
for
those
who
protect
us
our
first
responders.
I
You
may
have
seen
that
in
the
Korean
Olympics
there
was
an
article
couple
articles
the
day
after
the
Super
Bowl
the
security
forces
at
the
Olympics
came
down
with
norovirus
from
the
food
it
ended
up.
300
of
them
got
norovirus
South
Korea
brought
in
the
army
to
provide
security
for
the
Olympics.
That
did
not
happen
here.
We
were
very
intentional
working
with
our
law
enforcement
partners.
I
I
Probably
the
biggest
thing
that
happened
during
the
entire
period
was
that
the
Roosevelt
drumline
played
at
the
Convention,
Center
and
I
know
that
cuz
my
son's
in
the
Roosevelt
Room,
like
so
a
lot
of
things
happening
there
every
day
and
the
Convention
Center
I
got
to
hand
it
to
Jeff
Johnson
and
caliber
catering
amazing
work
that
that
team
did
well
done
very
good
operation
there,
Nicollet
Mall.
This
was
that
today
outdoor
event,
here's
Jana
from
Minneapolis
in
my
who's,
a
Hennepin
County
inspector
working
with
us.
I
I
We
even
had
a
swimming
pool,
and
yes
that
was
a
duly
inspected
swimming
pool.
We
had
a
staff
on-site
for
the
Polar
Plunge
the
entire
time.
We
didn't
do
anything
about
the
water
temperature,
but
it
was
the
armory
an
amazing
event
that
was
beautiful,
beautiful
space,
that
the
armory
has
become
here's
a
picture
of
Nick
and
what
Nick
has
in
his
hands?
There
is
an
ice
wand,
so
this
is
when
the
inspector
goes
from
I'm.
I
Think
that
says
a
lot
about
our
approach,
our
tailgate
party,
a
huge
event:
11,000
people,
Premo
dollar
tickets.
Here
this
the
organization
that
runs
the
tailgate
party.
This
is
our
eighth
Superbowl,
a
lot
of
resistance
when
they
first
we
first
reached
out
to
them.
I,
don't
need
to
talk
to
the
health
department,
don't
want
to
be
involved
at
the
end
of
her
time.
Here
you
guys
are
the
best
health
department.
I
I
Did
you
know
there
was
a
hotel
suite
in
the
u.s.
Bank
Stadium?
It
was
only
for
Saturday
night
before
the
game.
There
was
a
contest.
Courtyard
Marriott
had
a
contest.
A
lucky
couple
won
they
converted
one
of
their
luxury,
seating
Suites
into
a
luxury
hotel,
suite
we
inspected
it.
We
inspect
hotels
and
then
the
next
day
they
rapidly
turned
it
back
over
to
a
seating
suite
for
the
big
game
game
day.
So
all
that
was
just
before
the
Super
Bowl.
I
We,
our
inspectors,
went
through
with
with
the
police
early
in
the
morning
who
took
a
bus
over
to
u.s.
Bank
Stadium.
Here's
our
team
right
here,
my
and
Bill
Kevin
and
Nate
and
Brittany
and
Julia.
They
conducted
400
spot
checks.
In
that
day
they
just
kept
going
around
and
around
monitoring
all
the
food
that
was
being
prepped
kind
of
cool
to
be
at
the
big
game,
but
they
were
exhausted
after
being
there
for
14
hours
with
the
crowds
and
the
noise
and
really
appreciate
their
hard
work.
I
I
Food
defense.
The
very
first
thing
that
was
investigated
by
the
FBI
during
this
event,
was
threats
by
a
food
worker
that
they
were
going
to
contaminate
the
beer
of
Eagles
fans,
and
fortunately,
we
had
really
focused
on
food.
Defense
knew
exactly
what
to
do.
It
be
investigated
and
we
were
good
another
issue:
the
water
tanks
that
we're
on
Nicollet
Mall
they
were
tampered
with.
The
seals
had
been
broken.
Here's
an
example:
here's
Jana
with
one
of
those
and
you
can
see
a
seal
on
on
the
water
tank
there.
I
I
I
I
And
here's
our
team-
and
we
have
a
number
of
folks
here
today
we
have
Cindy
with
Leslie
and
Holly
and
Dane
and
Logan
and
Bob
and
Christine
Julia,
Nick,
Nate
and
Adam.
All
part
of
a
health
inspection
team
really
appreciate
the
hard
work
that
they
did
to
make.
This
a
successful
event
went
in
with
this
quote.
This
is
high
praise
from
dr.
cursor.
She
works
with
governments
and
multinational
corporations
worldwide
on
food
defense
and
preventing
terrorism.
I
So
high
praise
from
her
remember
that
ice,
sculpture,
I
told
you
about
well,
the
seat
was
not
the
only
thing
that
got
lifted
from
the
stadium
that
night,
what
of
our
Spector's
snapped?
This
picture
of
a
jubilant
Eagles
fan
running
through
the
Skyway,
with
his
stolen
high
sculpture,
not
sure
how
he's
going
to
get
it
on
the
plane.
I
think
at
that
point.
Maybe
he
was
it
thankee
clearly,
but.
A
F
Thank
you,
everybody
for
the
great
work
it
sounds
like.
It
was
quite
and
quite
an
effort.
My
only
question-
and
maybe
this
is
something
that's
going
to
come
up
on
other
reports
and
their
committees.
But
how
do
we
do
in
terms
of
paying
for
all
of
this
extra
time
and
effort?
And
where
did
that
money
come
from
and
how
much
of
that
was
born
out
of
just
the
general
fund
to
cover
the
regular
hours
that
you'd
be
working
regularly?
That
may
have
meant
we
weren't
going
somewhere
else
to
do
our
regular
jobs.
I
Mr.
chair,
a
council
member,
it's
a
great
question
and
I
have
all
my
numbers
on
a
spreadsheet,
but
I
don't
have
him
in
my
head,
but
so
I
can
definitely
follow
up
with
you,
but
basically
we
had
the
following
cost.
We
had
our
general
workday
cost
that
you
mentioned,
which
is
we're
already
budgeted
for
and
paid
for,
but
it
does
divert
us
from
other
things.
I
Then
we
have
our
overtime
cost
and
that's
a
direct
expense
at
it
expense.
We
also
had
our
training
cost.
We
did
a
lot
of
training
we
paid
for
that
to
make
sure
that
folks
were
properly
trained
and
then
we
also
had
just
supplies.
We
fed
our
inspectors.
During
the
operation
we
did
receive
a
lower
$40,000
from
the
Super
Bowl
committee
to
help
reimburse
our
cost.
It
didn't
cover
the
entirety
of
oliver
etre
cost.
I
However,
as
Mark
Ruffer
CFO
mentioned
in
our
enterprise-wide
conversation,
he
is
anticipating
that
increase
in
sales
revenue
from
all
the
activities
should
help
cover,
for
that,
so
I
would
defer
to
our
CFO
on
the
exact
you
know
how
it.
How
it
ended
up
is
the
cost
balance
at
the
end,
but
I
can
provide
our
specific
information
to
in
a
follow-up
email.
F
So
they'll
be
interesting
to
see
the
spreadsheet.
That
would
be
great
to
send
that
view.
If
you
can.
I
was
also
curious
about
if
people
had
to
get
another
license.
So
if
all
the
food
vendors
and
if
they
came
from
out
of
town-
and
they
were
just
setting
up
for
this
event,
did
they
have
to
go
through
us
to
get
a
license
and
were
we
also
collecting
some
fees
for
that?
F
I
Chair
accounts
for
a
recording:
yes,
if
anyone
of
asserting
as
if
they
were
a
vendor
at
a
event
like
a
Nicollet
Mall,
they
had
to
get
a
short
term
food
permit
or
a
seasonal
food
permit
or
food
trucks
were
already
licensed
any
place
that
was
already
licensed,
for
example,
the
Convention
Center.
They
already
have
a
license
with
us,
and
so
no
additional
license
was
needed
there
or
at
our
hotels
for
outdoor
vendors.
They
would
have
to
either
get
a
catering
license
or
a
short-term
food
permit
license.

F

Mr.
cherry
councilmember
I
would
say
that
they
definitely
have
a
lot
of
customers.
From
our
point
of
view,
we
inspect
every
single
establishment
as
if
it
as
as
if
it
is
its
own
entity.
So
that's
why
we
we,
you
know,
there's
150
different
places
that
we
inspect,
which
is
why
we
spend
you
know
eight
inspectors,
six
hours
during
a
concert
or
game
day,
two
inspector,
so.
F
I
F

Thank
you,
I
just
wanted
to
take
a
moment
to
acknowledge
how
much
of
a
resounding
success
this
aspect
of
the
work
for
the
Super
Bowl
was
because
there
were
no
reports,
didn't
make
the
news
it's
one
of
those
things
where
it's
like.
If
you
do
your
job
really
well,
nobody
talks
about
it,
and
so
I
want
to
take
the
time
to
talk
about
it
and
say.
Thank
you
also.
A
Those
numbers
are
really
big
for
the
amount
of
work
in
a
short
period
of
time,
a
small,
relatively
small
group
of
folks,
with
a
little
level
of
scale,
the
partnerships
that
were
built,
the
collaborations
that
were
made
I
just
have
to
say
phenomenal
work.
Everyone,
although
you
may
not
have
made
the
news
you
are
recognized
and
seen
for
all
of
the
hard
work
in
time
that
you
put
into
it.

If
you
are
unable
to
make,
it
would
like
to
submit
a
comment
to
be
included
in
the
public
hearing.
Please
send
an
email
to
Council
comment
at
Minneapolis,
MN,

or
contact
your
councilmember
and
ask
for
your
comment
to
be
included
in
the
public
comments,
seeing
no
further
business
before
this
committee.
We
are
adjourned.
