Description
Minneapolis Economic Development & Regulatory Services Committee Meeting
A
Good
afternoon
welcome
to
the
regularly
scheduled
meeting
of
the
economic
development
and
regulatory
Services
Committee
for
today,
which
is
October
9th
I've,
been
joined
by
council
members,
Fletcher
Cano,
Cunningham
and
I
am
positive.
The
other
two
members
of
the
committee
will
be
here
momentarily,
but
we
have
quite
a
lengthy
agenda
and
so
I
want
to
get
moving
on.
That,
I
will
note
that
we
have
a
consent
agenda
that
has
a
number
of
items
and
a
few
that
I
would
like
to
either
note
or
make
change
of
so
I
am
going
to
first.
A
Move
the
consent
agenda,
which
are
items
number
8
through
20
I,
will
note
that
these
are
the
regular
liquor
license
and
gambling
license
and
business
license
approvals
as
well
as
business
license
operating
conditions,
license
settlement
conferences,
rental
license,
reinstatements
and
a
number
of
items
that
are
moving
on
to
public
hearings
before
I
move
to
approve
the
consent
agenda.
I'd
like
to
ask
mr.
Traill
to
come
forward
just
for
an
introduction
of
a
young
lady
who
is
doing
some
incredible
work
in
Minneapolis
and
Golden
Valley
that
we
wanted
to
give
an
opportunity
to
speak
this
morning.
B
You
councilmember
Goodman
members
of
the
committee
I'm
Jim
Terrell,
with
the
CPAP
business
development
and
we
weren't
planning
to
talk,
but
we're
grateful
for
an
opportunity.
This
is
the
item
for
loan
to
Cajun
twist
LLC
and
tiana
washington.
The
owner
of
the
entity,
is
here
to
speak
briefly
to
this
exciting
new
project.
Great.
A
C
I
mean
so
I
guess
this
we're
just
trying
to
create
more
jobs
for
people
in
the
city
by
way
of
the
Lobo
foundation
and
the
trailhead
there
in
Golden,
Valley
and
I'm
thankful
that
you
all
are
making
the
changes
and
adjustments
to
help
us
to
be
able
to
further
that
and
to
be
able
to
take
monies
designated
for
Minneapolis
and
to
build
infrastructure
there
in
Golden
Valley.
So
we
can
create
those
jobs
and.
C
Kitchen,
yes,
so
I
started
out
just
doing
catering
and
really
just
doing
meals
for
my
family
and
then
family
members
and
businesses.
They
would
ask
me
to
come
in
bring
in
pasta,
gumbo
things
like
that
and
so
I'm
the
man
kind
of
grew
and
grew,
and
so
we
actually
decided
to
do
some
research
and
learn
about
Minneapolis
in
the
twin
cities
and
what
people,
if
they
would
really
receive
Cajun
food
here
in
Minnesota,
and
they
they
did
they
loved
it.
We
were
able
to
charlene
was
one
of
my
my
first.
A
So
with
that
I'm
gonna
move
the
consent
agenda,
which
is
items
8
through
20.
Are
there
further
comments
or
questions
about
those
items
on
the
consent
agenda,
seeing
none
all
in
favor
signify
by
saying
aye
any
opposed
those
items
are
approved
with
regard
to
our
public
hearing
agenda,
both
the
public
hearing
and
quasi
judicial
hearings,
I'm
going
to
move
to
delete
item
7
I
understand
that
the
issues
surrounding
item
7
have
been
addressed
and,
as
a
result,
we
will
not
need
to
revoke
that
license.
Are
there
further
comments
about
that
issue?
A
Ok,
on
the
motion
to
remove
or
delete
from
the
agenda
item
number
7,
all
in
favor
signify
by
saying
aye
any
opposed.
That
item
is
approved.
We'll
then
move
on
to
our
public
hearing
there's
only
one
public
hearing
and
then
we'll
move
on
to
our
quasi
judicial
public
hearings,
starting
with
item
number
1,
miss
Roberts.
Thank.
D
D
They
are
requesting
those
license,
and
the
requirement
of
the
public
hearing
is
because
they're
upgrading
from
a
of
entertainment
that
is
Class
C
1
to
Class
B.
In
essence,
this
will
allow
the
business
to
provide
dancing
in
DJ's.
At
this
event,
Center
this
application
does
require
hearing
notices
were
sent
to
property
owners
and
residents
within
300
feet.
We've
received
known
responses
to
that
public
hearing
and
lead
licensed
inspector
Julie
Casey
is
making
a
recommendation
to
approve
at
this
time
are.
A
There
any
questions
for
staff
on
item
number
one,
seeing
none
we'll
open
the
public
hearing
on
item
number
1,
which
is
on
sale,
liquor
with
Sunday
sales,
Class
B
license
at
the
Minneapolis
Events
Center.
Is
there
anyone
here
to
speak
to
this
issue?
Anyone
anyone
seeing
none
will
close
the
public
hearing
council
member
Allison.
A
Number
one
has
been
moved
for
approval,
further
comments
or
questions,
seeing
none
all
in
favor
signify
by
saying
aye
any
opposed.
That
item
is
approved.
We'll
then
move
on
to
our
quasi
judicial
public
hearings,
which
are
items
2,
3,
4,
5,
&
6.
Before
we
start
the
presentation
I
just
want
to
note.
This
is
a
quasi-judicial
hearing
for
which
this
committee
is
limited
by
law,
to
hearing
arguments
from
the
parties
to
the
matter
consisting
only
of
the
city,
regulatory
services
staff
and
the
license
holder
or
the
license
holders
representative.
A
This
committee
is
prohibited
from
receiving
any
further
evidence
or
additional
testimony.
The
parties
are
required
to
limit
their
comments
to
arguments
specifically
addressing
the
evidence
or
testimony
introduced
before
the
administrative
hearing
officer
who
previously
conducted
a
full
evidentiary
hearing
in
the
matter.
The
parties
may
not
offer,
and
the
committee
may
not
consider
any
newer
additional
evidence
that
is
not
already
part
of
the
record
developed
by
the
evidentiary
hearing.
The
committee
has
been
provided
with
the
record
of
this
matter,
including
the
report
and
recommendation
of
the
administrative
hearing.
A
Officer
and
I
also
want
to
just
show
you
the
report
that
we've
been
given
on
these
issues,
and
everyone
on
the
committee
has
had
an
opportunity
to
review
this
report,
and
it's
sitting
in
front
of
me
for
reference
today
as
well,
so
with
that
I'd
like
to
take
these
aye
by
individual.
So
we'll
start
with
item
number
one,
which
is
the
matter
of
the
rental
dwelling
license
at
30,
115,
Cedar,
Avenue
South
and
the
owner
Jennifer
strand
I
will
start
with
our
staff.
Mister
Shakman
welcome.
Madam.
F
F
The
denial
of
the
of
these
applications
was
sent
on
January
18
2018,
as
a
result
of
the
property
being
transferred
via
contract
for
deed,
meaning
that
mr.
friends
or
his
partners
maintained
an
interest.
There
are
at
least
four
legal
types
of
interests
because
of
a
contract
for
deed
ownership
under
both
Minneapolis
ordinances
in
Minnesota
case
law.
Mr.
friends
and
his
partners
still
have
an
ownership
interest
in
the
properties
until
the
contracts
for
deed
are
fulfilled.
Security
similar
to
a
mortgage,
the
property
itself
serves
as
collateral
under
the
contracts
reversionary.
F
If
the
contract
is
unfulfilled,
the
property
reverts
back
to
the
seller
and
control
the
mr.
friends
or
his
partners
would
still
have
control
over
sales
or
ownership
of
the
property
worth
the
contract
holder.
To
want
to
make
a
change.
Any
of
these
four
kinds
of
interest
in
the
properties
would
be
prohibited
because
they
constitute
legal
interests
in
the
in
the
licenses.
F
There
were
four
appeal
hearing
dates:
May
21st,
June,
25th,
June,
28th
and
July
10
2018,

recommendation

licenses
in
order
in
items
4,
5,
&,

I
will
also
note.
Under
the
consent
agenda.
We
did
reinstate
a
license
for
mr.
A
McMullen
at
37
20
many
Avenue
South,
due
to
the
fact
that
we
believe
he
owns
the
property
outright.
Are
there
questions
with
regard
to
the
motion
to
deny
the
rental
licenses,
seeing
none
on
the
motion
to
deny
all
in
favor
signify
by
saying
aye
aye
any
opposed?
That
item
is
approved
with
that
we've
concluded
our
public
hearings
and
our
quasi-judicial
public
hearings.
We'll
move
on
to
our
discussion
items
starting
with
item
number
21
Kevin
welcome.
G
Thank
you.
I
have
the
pleasure
to
come
before
you
twice
a
year
to
recommend
the
slate
of
projects
that
are
interested
in
getting
brown
for
grant
funding
from
our
local
brownfield
granters
the
state
of
Minnesota,
the
Metropolitan
Council
and
Hennepin
County.
The
fall
round
will
have
in
November
one
application
deadline.
We
encourage
people
who
were
interested
in
seeking
this
funding
to
give
the
city
pre
applications
the
deadline
for
that
was
September
7
we've
reviewed
those
pre
applications.
We
got
three
applications
for
16
projects.
One
project
dropped
out
at
left.
G
15
projects
of
those
15
projects
are
recommending
13.
A
brief
summary
of
what
that
includes.
We
have
eight
projects
that
you've
seen
before
they've
come
before
you
in
the
past.
You
can
grant
funding
and
are
seeking
additional
funding.
Five
new
projects,
the
breakdown
of
the
thirteen
recommended
projects
includes
five
that
are
purely
commercial,
seven
that
are
primarily
residential
in
nature
and
one
park
project
of
the
seven
residential
projects.
Six
of
them
appear
to
be
in
compliance
with
the
city's
affordable
housing
guidelines.
One
is
a
purely
market
rate
phase
of
a
project
that
is
otherwise
affordable.
G
We
did
get
four
waivers
in
this
round.
As
you
may
recall,
you
adopted
a
policy
recently
that
indicated
that
market
rate
projects
would
ordinarily
not
be
eligible
for
city
assistance.
With
regard
to
getting
brownfield
grant
funding,
you
adopted
two
exceptions
to
that
for
us
to
consider
of
the
four
projects
that
sought
waivers
are
recommending
two
waivers
and
we're
recommending
against
two
other
waivers.
H
Thank
You
Chuck
have
been,
and-
and
thanks
for
this
report
did
either
of
the
two
waivers
that
you
recommended
approval
of
point
to
modifications
we
should
be
thinking
about.
I
know
this
is
a
new
policy.
You
know,
obviously,
in
the
case
of
the
obviously
gave
way,
a
very
small
percentage
of
that
building
is
residential.
H
G
Our
philosophy
is
that
projects
that
would
otherwise
be
entirely
market
rate
should
consider
include
affordable
housing
for
a
variety
of
reasons,
including
the
possibility
of
getting
grant
funding
that
they
won't
otherwise
qualify
for
I'm,
hoping
that
as
time
goes
on
and
as
more
and
more
developers
are
aware
of
these
requirements
that
they'll
factor
that
into
their
planning
process.
There
are
some
projects
that
were
perhaps
caught
a
little
bit
by
surprise.
In
this
round.
We
tried
to
give
them
as
much
advance
notice
as
possible.
G
Some
of
these
projects
were
pretty
far
downstream
and
they've
indicated
that,
for
one
reason
or
another,
either
they
couldn't
or
they
didn't
want
to
change
and
try
to
add
units.
But
this
has
been
a
good
educational
process,
I
think
for
us
and
for
them
and
we're
talking
about
people
on
it
about
this
on
an
ongoing
basis
and
we're
hoping
that
this
results
in
more
affordable
units
in
the
future.
A
G
The
three
grand
tours
together
are
offering
somewhere
between
seven
and
eight
million
dollars.
The
city
is
not
eligible
for
all
of
that,
because
each
of
the
three
Grand
Tours
has
parameters
and
restrictions
regarding
how
they
can
award
the
money
of
the
four
million.
The
deed
makes
available,
we're
theoretically
eligible
for
about
2.6
million.
If
all
of
the
metro
area
money
came
to
Minneapolis,
often
it
gets
split
up,
some
goes
to
st.
Paul,
etc.
Met
Council
has
about
two
and
a
half
million
available.
G
They
put
a
ceiling
of
fifty
percent
on
the
portion
of
that
they
can
go
to
any
one
city
in
almost
every
round.
We
max
out
at
that
level.
Kenema
county
has
about
a
million,
maybe
a
million
two
available.
They
try
to
give
half
of
that
to
the
suburbs
and
half
to
Minneapolis.
If
they
get
enough
suburban
applications
in
the
last
round,
we
got
six
million
dollars
worth
of
grant
funding.
G
It's
not
inconceivable
that
we
could
get.
You
know
four
or
five
million
in
this
round.
If
we
do
well,
some
projects
may
not
get
funded.
In
my
experience,
almost
every
Minneapolis
project
gets
at
least
some
funding.
They
may
not
get
it
from
all
three
of
the
grantors,
if
they're
applying
to
all
three,
but
they
get
some
and
there
are
some
cases
where
they
don't
get
everything
they
want
in
the
first
round
and
come
back
in
a
second
round
and
get
more.
But.
A
G
A
Good
further
questions
for
mr.
Carroll,
seeing
none
thank
you
for
your
report.
I'll
move
approval
of
the
staff
recommendation,
along
with
the
recommendations
with
regard
to
the
waivers
and
the
lack
of
waivers
on
the
two
projects
as
well
further
comments
or
questions,
seeing
none
all
in
favor
signify
by
saying
aye
any
opposed
that.
I
A
Is
approved,
thank
you
for
being
here
today.
We'll
move
on
to
our
final
item
then,
which
is
setting
a
public
hearing
for
October
23rd
on
an
ordinance
amending
title,
12
chapter
244,
the
Minneapolis
of
codes
relating
to
housing,
and
then
we
will
now
receive
and
file.
Well.
First
we'll
hear
a
report
then
we'll
receive
and
refile
the
report
relating
to
our
conduct
unlicensed
premise,
with
a
notation
that
we
plan
to
bring
forward
the
final
body
of
work
in
the
next
EDRs
meeting.
J
Worries.
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
Thank
you.
Everyone
for
who
is
here
today
for
this
really
important
presentation.
I
just
want
folks
to
know
that
over
near
the
city
clerk
we
have
draft
amended
language,
so
folks
can
get
a
copy.
Colleagues,
you
also
have
at
your
desk
a
print
off
of
the
new
conduct
on
licensed
premises.
J
Process
which
will
we
will
go
over
today
and
residents
can
find
a
copy
of
all
of
this
information
as
well
on
the
city's
lims
website.
So
before
we
get
started,
I
actually
wanted
to
take
a
quick
moment
if
you'll
excuse
me
Jonathan,
but
the
following
city
staff,
because
folks
really
stuck
it
out
and
folks
really
invested
their
time
and
commitment
in
this
complex
procedural
and
policy
overhaul
so
bear
with
me.
J
We
have
a
quite
a
bit
of
folks
who
have
been
involved
so
I
first
want
to
thank
Kelly
Jones
Rose
Lindsay
Noah
Schuchman,
commander
Charlie,
Adams,
Jennifer
officer,
Jennifer
Lazar

Excuse
me
bore
Jorah
and
Wendy
Lorenzo
Sanchez.
Thank
you.
Everybody
we've
had
a
huge
work
group
of
folks.
J
I
want
to
give
a
special
thanks
to
Jonathan
and
Elliot,
who
have
been
serving
as
Co
project
managers
alongside
my
office
and
last,
but
certainly
not
least,
I
want
to
thank
my
senior
policy
advisor
Samantha
priest
ensign
for
her
leadership.
Brilliance
impatience
over
the
last
10
months,
not
just
with
this
work,
but
in
everything
that
she
has
done
thus
far
so
now,
shifting
to
the
conduct
on
licensed
premises,
I
decided
to
step
into
amending
this
ordinance
and
overhauling
it.
J
I
have
heard
time
and
time
again
how,
in
fact,
how
ineffective
it
was
in
addressing
chronic
criminal
and
disruptive
behaviors
in
our
neighborhoods,
and
our
crime
data
demonstrated
that
much
but
the
further
we
dug
into
the
work.
The
more
we
learned
about
how
much
vulnerable
renters
were
being
unjustly
impacted
by
this
ordinance
and
landlords
who
are
need
in
need
of
support
and
resources
which
only
further
solidified
the
need
for
this
urgent,
urgent
change.
So
starting
in
early
March,
we've
been
convening
this
inter
Department
old
task
force
made
up
nearly
of
all
of
the
city
departments.
J
Given
the
complexity
of
this
issue,
and
what
is
presented
here
today
is
the
culmination
of
that
work
in
addition
to
some
community
engagement.
That
has
happened
and
will
happen
beyond
today,
so
now
from
here,
I
will
pass
it
over
to.
We
have
Jonathan
Williams
Kinsel
from
the
I-team
to
kick
us
off.
Thank
you.
K
Good
after
good
afternoon,
sir
good
man
good
afternoon,
I,
say
committee
members,
my
name
is
Jonathan
Williams
Kenzel
I'm,
the
innovations
I'm
one
of
the
innovation
team
program
managers
and
also
one
of
the
project
managers
for
the
amendments
to
Minneapolis
ordinance
before
2020
conduct
on
licensed
premises.
L
Thank
You
chair
Goodman,
vice-chair
Ellison
council
members.
My
name
is
Imani
Jafar
I'm,
the
director
of
the
office
of
police,
conduct,
review
and
I'm
here
to
present
to
you
just
a
brief
recap
of
the
evictions
and
calls
for
service
report.
We
actually
did
present
this
to
the
Public
Safety
Committee
on
several
months
ago,
and
it
turned
out
that
our
Commission
was
looking
at
the
work
at
the
same
time
that
councilmember
Cunningham
was
already
fielding
the
complaints
and
looking
at
how
he
wanted
to
address
the
issue.
L
So
it
kind
of
worked
nicely
that
the
completion
date
of
the
study
led
it
to
be
the
foundation
for
some
of
the
recommendations
and
the
ordinance
changed
language
that
you
see
before
you
today.
So
just
briefly,
the
police
conduct
oversight
Commission,
which
my
office's
staff
or
received
from
legal
aid,
which
is
mid,
Minnesota
legal
assistance,
complaints
specifically
about
Minneapolis,
as
enforcement
of
the
conduct
on
licensed
premises
affecting
tenants
who
they
represented.
L
So
basically,
what
came
out
of
the
study
in
the
study
is
available
online
I
believe
we
have
a
link
to
it
here
and
I'm
happy
to
take
any
questions
about
that.
It's
pretty
comprehensive,
but
just
to
kind
of
boil
it
down.
First,
there
was
management
plan,
so
a
management
plan
is
the
document
that
goes
out
to
a
landlord
who's.
L
How
to
conduct
on
licensed
premises,
violation
saying
that
you
need
to
have
some
kind
of
plan
to
address
this
well,
previously,
management
plans
were
only
being
given
out
to
the
landlord
and
then
community,
such
as
block
club
leaders,
but
not
the
actual
tenant.
So
the
tenants
first
notice
of
this
may
have
come
as
a
notice
to
vacate
or
an
actual
formal
eviction,
which
is
the
court
filing
a
notice
to
vacate
is
a
lot
more
informal
can
be
a
letter
can
be
a
conversation
sometimes
for
people.
L
So
the
other
piece
is
that
the
enforcement
was
unintentionally
affecting
people
who
actually
have
state
law
protections,
such
as
domestic
violence,
protections
which
will
be
addressed
later
in
this
presentation,
children
and
then
those
with
mental
health
issues.
So
sometimes
the
origin
of
the
disturbance
or
the
call
may
be
something
that's
related
to
a
protected
issue,
but
it
wasn't
being
caught
in
the
previous
process.
Also
when
looking
at
how,
where
landlords
and
Minneapolis
being
trained,
the
training
seems
very
focused
on.
L
If
there's
a
problem,
then
remove
someone
either
through
an
eviction
or
a
notice
to
vacate
which
is
much
harder
to
track,
because
it's
not
a
formal
court
mechanism,
a
letter
that
that
no
one
would
know
about
maybe
except
for
a
tenant.
So
that's
another
gap
we
found
with
the
data
collection
is
even
when
an
eviction
was
filed.
The
city
just
didn't
have
data
about
what
happened
to
people.
Were
they
moving
around
the
city?
Were
they
moving
out
of
the
city?
Were
they
becoming
homeless?
L
So
that
was
something
that
we
saw
gaps
in
those
plans,
so
at
the
all
of
our
research
and
study,
there's
always
recommendations
on
how
to
address
the
problems
that
are
that
are
found
during
that
process.
One
was
revised.
The
landlord
training
make
it
less
focused
on
legal
advice,
evictions
and
notice
to
vacate
more
on
education
about
being
a
landlord
and
taking
into
concerns
some
other
issues,
such
as
equity
issues
and
how
to
address
people
that
there
are
other
options
other
than
removal,
but
not
providing
legal
advice,
a
more
appropriate
role
for
the
city.
L
L
We
need
to
end
the
relationship
that,
if
they're,
given
a
notice
to
vacate
or
they're
evicted,
that
there
is
some
data
being
collected
on,
what's
happening
as
a
result
on
the
conduct
on
premises
or
if
there
is
something
negotiated
in
the
interim
that
you
can
know
if
that's
successful,
if
they're
city
programs
and
also
just
that
that
way,
the
city
after
an
amount
of
time,
can
look
at
that
data
and
see.
How
is
this
process
working
isn't
an
improvement
from
what
we
had
so
that's
kind
of
just
a
very
boiled
down
version
of
the
study.
L
A
L
M
Dr.
Goodman
and
vice-chair
Allison
as
the
council
members,
my
name
is
Elliott
Payne
I'm,
a
designer
on
the
innovation
team,
and
we
wanted
to
talk
about
how
we
took
the
study
out
of
civil
rights
and
operationalize
that
to
create
changes
within
the
ordinance.
And
the
first
thing
that
we
had
to
do
is
get
an
understanding
of
the
existing
profit,
but
well
the
previous
process,
and
what
system
change
is
about
is
about
understanding
the
outcomes.
M
So
we
approached
this
with
a
some
principles:
around
systems,
change
and
I'll.
Just
describe
these
really
quickly,
one
of
those
is
just
to
understand
the
needs
and
assets
of
the
system,
who
are
all
the
actors
that
are
operating
in
it.
What
are
those
decisions
that
they're
making?
We
just
need
to
map
that
all
out
so
that
we
can
start
engaging
with
the
right
people
that
are
involved.
So
that's
principle,
number
two
principle:
three
is
visualizing
that
all
those
interactions
in
a
process
diagram
or
flow
viewing
it
together.
M
M
Another
principle
is
distributing
leadership,
so
you
know
no
one
person
can
drive
all
this
councilmember
Cunningham's
had
a
lot
of
leadership
from
you
know
the
position
of
being
a
council
member,
but
we've
also
had
to
have
leadership
from
all
the
various
departments
and
as
well,
and
all
those
have
been
contributing
to
this.
These
better
outcomes
that
we're
hoping
for.
We
want
to
foster
this
culture
of
learning,
meaning
that
you
know
today
is
the
beginning
of
this
process.
N
You,
madam
chair
committee,
members
Joel
fusty
from
the
City
Attorney's
Office
I,
was
assigned
by
my
office
to
work
on
this
matter
and
the
slide
that's
in
front
of
you
now
in
the
city
of
torn
City.
Attorney's
portion
of
the
presentation
illustrates
just
some
of
the
changes
that
were
made
in
the
amendment
draft
throughout
the
process,
after
multiple
staff
meetings
and
some
stakeholder
input,
but
I
think,
more
importantly,
I'm
going
to
be
focusing
on
just
a
brief
overview
of
the
full
text
of
the
ordinance
Amendment,
which
is
linked
on
the
online
council
agenda.
N
First
and
foremost,
if
you
look
at
the
amendment
text
itself,
you'll
notice
that,
contrary
to
maybe
some
information
that
was
out
there,
the
conduct
on
premises
ordinance
is
not
going
away
and
in
fact
much
of
the
previous
ordinance
remains
in
this
draft,
including
the
retention
of
the
same
seven
categories
of
qualifying
incidents.
Those
are
listed
on
the
first
page
of
the
ordinance
draft
and
they
remain
the
same.
They
include
on-premises
activity
ranging
from
prostitution
and
sex
trafficking
to
unlawful
sale
or
possession
of
narcotics
and
weapons.
N
The
panel
will
be
housed
and
convened
by
regulatory
services,
but
it
may
also
contain
representatives
from
the
Health
Department,
City,
Attorney's,
Office
other
appropriate
city
staff
and
also
representatives
from
public
or
private
community
business
or
social
service
organizations.
The
panel
is
envisioned
in
the
ordinance
to
operate
informally
and
in
collaboration
and
by
consensus
with
a
backstop
provided
there
that,
in
the
event
that
consensus
can't
be
reached
on
an
individual
determination
or
recommendation
that
the
director
of
regulatory
services
is
able
to
make
that
final
determination
as
needed.
N
Then
briefly,
the
panel
can
kind
of
funneled
the
cases
into
three
separate
I
guess
courses
that
they
can
take.
First,
they
can
review
the
file
and
determine
that
the
incident
has
been
resolved,
that
you
know
the
CPS
level
or
before
it
got
to
them,
and
the
property's
inclusion,
then
in
the
program
would
be
terminated,
subject
to
possible
reentry
if
additional
qualifying
incidents
occurred.
N
Secondly,
the
panel
could
designate
a
property
as
being
subject
to
additional
monitoring
by
the
CPS
is
for
a
period
of
up
to
one
year
and
the
landlord
or
tenants
could
be
offered
any
appropriate
identified,
services,
resources
or
referrals.
And
lastly,
you
probably
be
a
small
or
subset
of
cases,
but
the
property
could
be
designated
for
what's
being
termed
an
intervention
plan
and
that
intervention
plan
may
impose
required
actions
to
be
taken
by
the
landlord,
including
any
number
of
things
and
they're
not
limited
in
the
ordinance.
N
But
they
could
include
things
such
as
partition,
participation
in
designated
meetings
or
training,
submission
of
incident
response
plans,
kind
of
a
different
version
of
the
management
plan
that
you
may
have
heard
of
before.
And,
of
course,
a
lot
of
work
is
going
to
be
done
on
what
might
be
asked
for
contained
in
those
incident
response
plans.
N
The
imposition
of
formal
conditions
on
the
landlord's
rental
license,
which
is
an
area
of
enforcement
that
regulatory
services
previously
was
already
in
the
process
of
implementing,
but
I
think
that
the
idea
is
twofold,
that
more
seamlessly
into
this
process
and
in
cases
which
might
rise
to
a
specified
qualifying
level.
The
more
serious
cases
there
remains
of
the
potential
for
revocation
or
denial
of
the
license.
N
Next
I
want
to
talk
about
subsection
E,
which
is
separately
discussed
in
in
a
few
slides
in
the
presentation,
but
really
is
the
work
of
councilmember
Schrader,
more
affirmative
ly
and
directly
address
tenant
assistance
service
calls
that
work
has
now
been
merged
into
this
ordinance.
Amendment,
that's
in
front
of
you
and
the
language
you
see
in
that
subsection
E,
which,
for
the
first
time
specifically
incorporates
the
state
statute.
That's
entitled
residential
tenants
right
to
seek
police
and
emergency
assistance.
N
It
incorporates
that
into
the
conduct
on
premises,
ordinance
and
that
statute,
combined
with
the
new
and
specific
language,
and
the
amendment,
will
clarify
and
establish
that
city
staff
will
not
pursue
any
adverse
license.
Action
in
instances
that
involve
tenant
assistance,
calls
which
commonly
arise
in
instances
of
domestic
violence,
but
can
also
arise
in
health
related
or
other
emergencies.
Conversely,
a
tenant
may
not
be
retaliated
against
by
a
landlord
for
such
tenant
emergency
assistance
scenarios
and,
as
I
did
mention,
that
work
was
really
brought
brought
forward
by
councilmember,
Schrader
and
I.
O
I'll
be
really
brief
bud
as
a
just
wanted
to
really
just
say
that
they're
really
proud
of
the
kind
of
the
work
that
we've
done.
This
issue
came
about
because
we
had
constituents
coming
to
me
with
this
very
issue
and
have
a
good
saying.
Well,
you
know
we
need
to
have
some
change
in
the
law,
so
I'm
proud
that
you
know.
N
And
thank
you.
I
do
have
just
a
couple
brief
remaining
comments
in
my
section
that
I'd
like
to
work
through
in
the
overview
here.
Subsection
F
of
the
amendment
continuing
on
speaks
to
in
large
part
a
some
of
the
data
tracking
issue
that
Miz
Jafar
a
spoke
of
just
before
me,
and
that
establishes
a
city
policy
to
refrain
from
encouraging
or
being
involved
with
the
evictions.
N
Instead,
such
action
shall
be
entirely
in
the
discretion
of
the
licensee
and
shall
be
taken
undertaken
in
shed
and
shall
be
undertaken
in
strict
conformance
with
all
applicable
laws.
And
finally,
a
subsection
G
just
codifies
that
provision
I
spoke
of
earlier
that
states
that
a
formal
police
report
must
be
used
in
making
any
determination
that
a
qualifying
incident
occurred,
and
that
would
conclude
my
part
of
the
presentation
and
certainly
if
any
questions
are
there,
we
could
address
an
hour
when
that
chair
feels
appropriate.
K
So
I'm
gonna
begin
to
start
to
talk
about
the
new
process
that
we
developed.
I
will
talk
about
the
intervention
intervention
part
that
will
be
overseen
by
the
Minneapolis
Police
Department.
The
application
of
conduct
or
license
premise
will
revert
from
a
centralized
program
to
a
decentralized
community
based
approach
with
crime
prevention
specialists
at
the
precinct
level
responsible
for
the
prevention
intervention.
K
The
CPS
will
issue
a
letter
to
both
the
landlord
and
the
tenant
with
the
tenant
receiving
a
copy
of
the
letter
that
the
landlord
received
once
letters
are
issued,
the
Landlord
and
Tenant
will
provided
the
opportunity,
but
not
requirement
of
ten
days
to
respond
to
the
letters
they
receive
depending
on
the
incident
type
and
the
information
provided.
We
hope
that
the
tenant
landlord
can
resolve
the
conflict
or
the
resolve.
The
incident
without
further
intervention
from
MBD
and
the
tenant
can
remain
in
the
residence
in
the
residency.
K
P
Good
afternoon,
madam
chair
members
of
the
committee,
my
name
is
Kelly
Rose
Jones
I'm,
the
director
of
housing
inspection
services
for
the
city
of
Minneapolis
with
regulatory
services.
I'll,
give
you
a
brief
synopsis
of
the
second
half
of
your
process.
Flowchart
involving
enforcement
and
integration.
As
Joel
mentioned.
P
A
large
part
of
this
new
process
is
going
to
involve
this
interdisciplinary
review
panel,
which
will
be
convened
by
regulatory
services,
and
we
will
be
doing
the
logistics
of
setting
up
meetings,
taking
notes,
etc,
making
sure
that
process
flows,
but
once
a
an
incident
is
unresolved
by
the
crime
prevention
specialists,
it
will
move
to
the
interdisciplinary
review
panel.
Although
the
review
panel
will
be
looking
at
all
incidences
that
qualify
in
order
to
understand
and
monitor
them
as
they
go,
the
review
panel
again
will
determine
if
it's
a
low
or
high
priority.
Once
that's
been
established.
P
The
low
priority
items
will
continue
to
be
monitored
by
the
crime
prevention
specialists
for
a
designated
period
of
time.
The
incidents
are,
the
situation's,
are
determined,
high-priority,
we'll
have
a
deeper
look
and
it
by
the
panel
and
may
require
the
development
of
an
incident
action
plan
or
some
other
mitigating
plan
that
will
help
ensure
the
problem
is
resolved
on
behalf
of
the
community,
but
also
engages
the
landlords
and
the
tenants
and
that
action
I
also
aceite.
The
panel
may
also,
if
it's
severe
enough,
recommend
conditions
on
the
rental
license
or
that
the
license
be
revoked.
P
All
of
the
all
of
these
may
be
appealed
and
will
be
appealed
through
the
standing
hearing
appeal
process
structure-
that's
already
in
place,
so
the
integration
phase
is
again
a
place
where
we
will
be
continuing.
The
panel
we'll
be
continuing
to
monitor
the
activity
in
cont
in
cooperation
with
the
CPS
and
if
no
additional
incidents
occurred
during
the
specified
time.
The
case
will
be
resolved
and
considered
closed.
K
E
You
wanted
to
thank
staff
for
all
the
work
being
done.
I
might
sound
like
a
broken
record,
but
to
echo
what
some
of
my
colleagues
have
said.
I've
also
faced
a
number
of
mainly
landlords
who
have
said
that
they
have
felt
like
their
hands
are
tied
in
instances
where
instances
where
they've
had
to
evict
tenants
and
they
felt
like
they
were.
They
they
otherwise
wouldn't
wouldn't
have,
and
so
hopefully,
we're
equipping
folks
to
to
be
able
to
stabilize
their
tenants
stabilize
their
buildings
tenants
to
be
able
to
stabilize
their
lives
and
I.
I
I
Instead
of
waiting
for
people
to
call
to
request
that
that
we're
just
proactive
on
that
front
and
that
that's
included
in
the
letters
that
get
issued
out-
and
we
looked
at
the
spacing
layout
and
looks
like
there
is
enough
space
to
include
in
that
introductory
letter,
just
a
little
blurb
in
Spanish
and
Somali
and
Hmong.
So
I
really
do
want
to
think
that
council
members
who
took
this
work
on
it's,
it's
really
nice
to
see
such
a
strong
package
of
ideas
and
recommendations
that
are
well
supported
by
staff
coming
forward.
H
Thank
You
Chuck
Goodman
I
just
wanted
to
thank
my
colleagues
who
worked
on
this
and
the
city
staff.
This
is
something
that
in
Ward,
3
is
mostly
going
to
have
an
impact
on
student
housing
and
we've
seen
a
lot
of
instances
where
an
incident
might
occur
and
obviously
we
want
to
have
a
process.
You
know
students
throw
parties
at
yourself
and
we
want
that
to
both
not
be
a.
You
know,
chronic
thing
that
drives
the
whole
neighborhood
nuts,
but
also
not
have
people
getting
kicked
out
of
their
housing
and
treated
unfairly
and
I.
H
Think
that
you
know
this
process
looks
incredibly
well
thought
out
when
I
first
saw
this
process
map
I
thought.
Oh,
my
gosh
are
we
making
this
hopelessly
complex,
but
actually,
as
we
walked
through
it,
it
really
looks
logical
and
reasonable
and
like
something
that
you
know,
people
can
follow
and
and
make
sense
of.
So
thank
you
for
the
work
that
everybody
put
in
on
this
I'm.
Very
supportive
of
the
outcome.
Councilmember.
J
Just
thank
you
to
everybody
again
and
also
thank
you
to
my
colleagues
who
have
been
active
in
learning
more
about
this
process
and
to
the
community
who
has
who
have
been
involved.
We
actually
didn't.
Could
you
take
a
moment
to
talk
about
the
community
engagement
that
has
been
done
and
what
will
be
done
moving
forward?
Yes,.
K
So
in
August
we
met
with
the
impacted
stakeholder
groups,
so
we
met
with
tenants
and
tenant
apathy.
Landlord
groups
and
neighborhood
associations
with
them
went
through
a
series
of
exercises
explaining
the
process
and
also
given
the
opportunity
to
discuss
the
framework
of
the
level
of
intervention
that
would
be
necessary
for
an
audience
like
this
and
gave
them
the
framework
of
we
want
to
keep
people
in
their
homes
as
much
as
possible.
K
But
how
do
we
do
that
and
operate
in
the
system
that
also
protects
and
respects
the
conditions
of
neighborhoods
as
well
and
respects
also
the
landlords
in
their
apartments
as
well?
So
it's
a
very
finite
box
to
be
to
put
in,
but
we
got
some
good
information
out
there.
That
will
help
us
moving
forward,
not
just
on
the
policy
language
but
procedural
and
some
behavioral
changes
that
will
to
go
on
with
it
MPD
regulatory
services
and
someone
just
the
work
would
have
to
do
with
in
neighborhoods
as
well
from
there.
K
Last
week
we
had
a
community
event
at
Thor
and
the
Copeland
arts,
history
and
arts
gallery
I
just
learned
the
name
last
week.
So
please
forgive
me.
We
had
on
last
Friday
from
on
5:00
to
7:00
and
going
forward
through
this
process.
As
we
move
into
implementation,
we
will
be
actively
working
to
engage
these
stakeholder
groups
continuously,
as
we
refine
some
forms
and
some
modules
and
some
different
pieces
of
information
that
will
make
landlords
and
tenants
have
the
ability
to
provide
input
in
a
very
uniform
way
and
also
help.
K
Our
CPS
is
be
able
to
break
down
information
and
determine
what
a
qualifying
incident
would
look
like
going
forward,
and
this
is
just
a
continuing
process
of
learning,
and
we
put
that
in
the
actual
process
of
continuing
to
learn,
to
continue
to
evaluate
this
program
and
make
sure
that
we
adjust
our
needs
and
through
engagement
and
continued
engagement,
we'll
be
able
to
refine
this
and
make
changes,
as
our
community
can
changes
in
the
future.
So.
J
Thank
you,
and
and
in
closing
I
also
just
want
to
make
sure
that
I
take
a
moment
to
thank
councilmember
Schrader
when
we
talk
about
the
most
vulnerable
folks,
who
are
impacted
by
this
ordinance.
We're
talking
about
folks
who
called
for
help
a
lot
of
times
who
ended
up
that
being
negatively
impacting
their
housing
situation
and
so
really
to
call
that
out
and
focus
on
it.
It's
just
I.
J
A
A
That's
been
done
on
behalf
of
staff,
as
well
as
the
leadership
of
council
members
who
have
taken
this
on,
including
council
members,
Cunningham
and
Schrader
I
want
to
thank
you
on
behalf
of
the
enterprise
for
everything
you're
doing,
and
we
appreciate
the
way
this
has
come
forward
with
the
briefing
today
by
a
public
hearing
on
the
23rd.
So
what
we
need
to
do
today
is
set
a
public
hearing
for
the
23rd
as
well
as
receiving
and
filing
the
report.
Councilmember
Cunningham.
Would
you
like
to
make
that
motion?
Yes,.
J
Prior
to
the
motion,
I
just
want
to
have
residents
know
that
it
as
mentioned
we
will
be
setting
the
public
hearing
for
the
next
two
weeks.
Please
take
the
time
to
review
the
language
and
the
materials
that
all
of
that
is
posted
with
today's
agenda
and
to
send
emails
with
feedback
to
ward
4
at
Minneapolis
and
gov,
and
with
that
I
motion
to
receive
and
file,
or
is
this
set.
