The
first
is
under
new
business
to
amend
the
emergency
resolution
related
to
the
declared
state
of
local
public
health
emergency,
and
the
second
is
amending
the
agenda
to
allow
for
the
honorary
resolution
recognizing
domestic
violence
awareness
month,
I'll
move.
Those
two
amendments
is
there
a
second
second:
are
there
any
other
amendments
to
the
agenda?

There
was
one
additional
emergency
regulations
that
I
signed
just
yesterday
and
that
is
pertaining
to
homeless
shelters.
As
you
know,
the
city
of
minneapolis
has
committed
nearly
two
million
dollars
in
covet
response
funds
to
the
indoor
villages,
product
project,
which
will
provide
shelter
and
support
for
100
people
experiencing
homelessness,
and
we
collectively,
as
a
city,
made
very
clear
from
the
very
beginning
that
we
wanted,
cares
dollars
largely
to
go
to
those
that
were
struggling
most
and
in
in
this
case.
That
is
definitely
those
who
are
experiencing
homelessness
and
unsheltered
homelessness.
I
I
I
won't
get
into
the
logistics
of
the
the
indoor
villages.
As
I
know,
you
all
are
very
familiar
and
have
been
working
on
it
as
well.
I
Seven
hundred
thirty
nine
thousand
nine
hundred
ninety
seven
that's
more
than
three
hundred
thousand
more
than
last
report
and
just
got
some
somewhat
concerning
numbers,
the
the
the
one-day
totals
that
that
will
will
be
published
today
are
are
certainly
going
up
and
we
are
hitting
what
we
believe
to
be
record
numbers
and
so
those
those
those
figures
should
tell
us
that
we
really
need
to
keep
our
foot
on
the
gas
on
this
and
that
we
are
keeping
our
foot
on
the
gas
need
to
remain
as
diligent
as
possible,
because
the
the
numbers
are
exceedingly
clear.
I
They're
they're,
going
up,
especially
as
the
onset
of
cold
weather,
comes
for
minnesota
case
information.
The
total
positive
is
100
139
444,
with
123
529
patients
who
no
longer
need
to
be
isolated
and
tragically
2
387
deaths.
I'm
going
to
skip
through
some
of
the
hennepin
county
numbers
here
to
go
to
hospitalization
total
cases.
Hospitalized
right
now
are
9855
total
cases.
Hospitalized
in
the
icu
are
2
609.
I
for
minneapolis-specific
case
information.
The
total
positive
cases
is
13
234,
with
total
hospitalized
1305.
12
199
have
recovered
and
tragically
260
deceased.
I
Moving
on
to
the
health
department
and
the
situational
update
as
of
october
30th,
there
are
13
234
cases
in
minneapolis
and
260
deaths.
As
I
mentioned
earlier,
hospitalizations
increased
by
3.9
percent
and
icu
admissions
increased
by
3.3
percent
people
under
age
still
make
up
over
people
under
age.
35
still
make
up
over
50
percent
of
cases
over
the
past
week,
but
we
are
starting
to
see
a
decrease
in
those
under
25
and
an
increase
in
those
25
and
older.
I
As
of
october
21st,
the
state
is
reporting
29.9
cases
per
100,
000
and
minneapolis
is
at
22.6
cases
per
100
000..
These
numbers
put
minnesota
in
what
is
known
as
the
red
category,
while
keeping
minneapolis
in
the
orange
category.
The
red
category
is
categorized
as
as
a
tipping
point
which
might
indicate
the
need
for
more
stringent
safety
measures.
I
Obviously,
we're
pleased
to
s
to
not
be
in
the
red
category
and
still
be
in
the
orange
category,
but
that
is
that
that
in
no
small
part
is
because
we've
been
taking
some
fairly
aggressive
measures
to
make
sure
that
people
are
safe
and
and
they
are
healthy
and
that
the
necessary
social
and
physical
distancing
requirements
remain
in
place.
I
As
for
case
investigation
and
contact
tracing,
the
the
health
department
is
conducting
over
50
case
investigations
and
contact
follow-ups
per
day
for
individuals
diagnosed
with
covet
19.
of
the
13
234
cases
in
minneapolis,
84.1
percent
have
been
interviewed,
2.4
percent
have
refused
and
10.4
percent
have
been
lost
to
follow-up.
Approximately
three
percent
of
new
cases
still
need
to
be
interviewed.
25
percent
of
interviews
of
minneapolis
residents
have
been
conducted
in
a
language
other
than
english
and
beginning
november,
5th
mhd
will
be
responsible
for
following
up
on
all
minneapolis
cases
in
the
past.
I
In
the
past
they
have
split
the
caseload
with
state
and
contact
tracers,
I'm
moving
on
to
community
covet
19
testing
and
flu
shots.
So,
in
partnership
with
communications,
mhd
is
developing
a
new
ad
campaign
in
multiple
languages
to
promote
covid,
19
community
testing.
I
Moving
on
to
kovid
19
vaccinations
last
week,
mhd
hosted
discussions
about
a
covid
vaccination
with
mayflower
church
and
lao
assistance
center
of
minnesota,
the
division
of
indian
work
and
the
sheridan
neighborhood
association.
Common
themes
from
these
presentations
include
concerns
about
the
covet
19
vaccine
approval
process,
questions
about
flu
shots
and
questions
about
timing
of
vaccine
distribution.
I
Moving
on
to
halloween
messaging,
we
put
out
some
fun
halloween
guidance
this
last
week
and
there
should
be
a
link
to
the
video
message
in
your
report
as
well,
even
more
important.
Perhaps
in
the
video
messages,
the
underlying
data
and
guidance
that
was
also
submitted,
and
you
can.
You
should
be
able
to
check
that
out
as
well.
I
I
I
I
There
are
you
have
many
numbers
regarding
public
safety,
we're
happy
to
answer,
questions
to
the
extent
we
can
or
if
the
chief
is
on.
But
again,
that's
not
part
of
this
of
this
covet
19
related
report.
Moving
on
to
some
of
the
work
that
fire
is
doing,
mfd
is
continuing
virtual
classroom
visits,
teaching
fire
safety
and
prevention
to
some
of
the
young
kids
grades.
K
through
three
and
and
safety
and
prevention
messaging
continues
to
go
out
via
next
door.
I
470
000
has
been
allocated
to
covet
19
community
food
security,
support
grants
and
30
000
to
support
health
department,
food
security
initiatives
to
address
gaps
in
service,
rapid
response
applications
for
covet
19
community
food
security
support
grants
were
accepted
through
noon
on
wednesday
october
28th
on
eligible
groups
are
organizations
that
provide
emergency
food
relief,
including,
but
not
limited
to
food
shelves,
food
banks,
food
pop-ups
or
farmers
market
distributing
distributing
free
food
and
there's
a
lot
of
really
great
work.
That's
happening
here
and
I
think
it
really
deserves
to
be
highlight.
I
Highlighted
groups
must
groups
must
serve
the
city
of
minneapolis,
provide
emergency
support
related
to
covet
19
pandemic
and
must
demonstrate
an
ability
to
purchase
items
and
provide
receipts
by
november
13
2020..
I
I
I
As
of
wednesday
october
28th
1433
applications
have
been
approved,
totaling
2
million
forty
five
thousand
dollars,
forty
five
thousand
five
hundred
sixty
seven
dollars
in
emergency
assistance
payments
and
again
the
small
business
forgivable
loans
have
been
fully
awarded.
F
Thank
you,
ma'am,
chair
and
mayor,
I'm
hoping
that
you
can
maybe
say
something
about
election
security.
I
I
can,
I
would
defer
most
of
that
to
the
combination
of
our
of
our
city
clerk
as
well
as
our
police
chief.
If
he
is
on
for
months
now,
we
have
been
working
to
ensure
the
full
integrity
of
our
elections
process
and
that
every
single
person
in
every
single
precinct
has
full
and
accessible
access
has
full
access
to
the
ballot
box.
You
know
that
will
not
be
infringed
in
any
way
shape
or
form.
I
We
are
uncompromising
on
our
commitment
on
this
front
and
we've
been
working
with
a
number
of
different
jurisdictional
partners
to
ensure
that
that
safety
and
that
access
is
met
in
full.
I
know
our
clerk
has
had
will
once
again
have
I
don't
remember
the
exact
term
but
marshalls
at
each
one
of
the
precinct
locations.
I
Those
marshals
can
then
be
in
touch
with
the
necessary
law
enforcement
or
authorities
to
assist
in
any
matter
that
is
infringing
on
that
on
those
rights
on
those
inalienable
rights,
and
I
know
that
our
chief,
as
well
as
myself,
have
been
in
collaboration
with
a
number
of
different
jurisdictional
partners
to
get
additional
assistance
if
needed,
and
so
again
we
will
be
unflinching
and
uncompromising
on
on
our
standards
here,
and
we
know
that
you
know
this
coming
tuesday
election
day.
I
The
days
proceeding
and
the
days
following
are
going
to
be
of
paramount
importance
that
you
know
safety
is
insured
and
that
this
election
is
is
conducted
fairly
and
with
complete
integrity.
Mr
clerk,
would
you
care
to
comment
more
fully,
perhaps
on
some
of
the
the
work
that
you
are
doing
and
or
the
chief.
B
And
that
includes,
of
course,
the
secretary
of
state
himself
and
his
office
as
well
as
the
attorney
general,
and
I
would
also
amplify
the
messaging
that
the
attorney
general
has
offered
in
the
last
few
weeks,
which
is
that
he
takes
seriously
any
threats,
any
intimidation
or
suppression
of
voters,
rights
and
would
vigorously
pursue
the
same.
And
so
I
would
only
echo
what
the
mayor
has
said
and
say
that
our
voters
should
feel
confident
that
our
ballots
will
be
accepted
and
that
voting
is
safe
and
secure.
Here
in
minneapolis.
I
Thank
you,
mr
clerk
and
council
vice
president,
if
I
may
add
just
one
one
other
item
not
necessarily
related
to
safety
or
security,
but
it's
certainly
related
to
the
integrity
of
this
voting
process.
I
If
I'm
getting
this
even
slightly
wrong,
was
that
ballots
received
after
election
day
will
not
as
of
right
now
be
counted
and
the
the
the
conclusion
is
that
if
you
have
a
ballot
in
your
hand,
if
you
had
were
requested
about-
and
you
presently
have
one
turn
it
in
in
person
to
an
to
one
of
our
sites
in
person
to
one
of
our,
you
can
always
certainly
vote
on
election
day.
F
Yes,
thank
you.
Thank
you
mayor.
I
I
believe
those
you
referred
to
as
marshals
are
called
sergeant
of
arms.
The
clerk
can
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong,
but
I
just
don't
want
to
give
the
impression
that
there
will
be
armed
people
in
the
polling
locations.
Marshals
implies.
You
know.
Law
enforcement.
F
I
Armed
and
sergeant
of
arms
is
the
proper
term.
G
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
madam
president.
Thank
you
mayor
and
clerk
for
the
the
great
kind
of
answers
about
like
what
we're
doing
about
election
security,
but
I
do
want
to
you
know,
name
that
a
lot
of
this.
We
need
to
be
talking
about
what
the
trump
campaign
did
with
the
police
federation.
The
trump
campaign
called
upon
the
police
federation
to
have
poll
watchers.
So
this
is
the
police
federation.
G
That's
made
up
of
our
rank
and
file
officers,
and
I
think
there
needs
to
be
a
little
bit
more
to
the
the
plans
that
are
said
to
help
people
how
the
mpd
and
everybody
will
be
held
accountable
to
that
standard.
We
have
you
know
outside
forces
that
have
a
very
different
set
agenda
for
this
election
and
we
need
to
not
only
have
a
plan
to
keep
everybody
safe,
but
a
plan
to
make
sure
that
everything
is
accountable
and
transparent
and
that
people
are
assured
that
everything
will
be
safe
at
the.
I
Polls
you
councilmember
schrader.
I
agree.
I
share
your
frustration
as
as
was
reported,
or
it
was
reported
that
that
the
request
going
through
the
federation
went
to
retired
officers,
but
nonetheless
it
is
certainly
concerning
and
we're
doing
everything
that
we
can
again
to
ensure
the
full
integrity
and
we're
we're
standing
by
that.
Thank
you,
though.
I
do.
B
Agree,
madam
president,
mr
mayor,
I'm
sorry
to
interrupt
there.
If
I
could
interject
one
point
about
the
challengers
that
are
in
polling
places,
that
was
alluded
to.
B
Just
just
because
I
really
want
to
make
sure
we
have
accurate
information
to
the
voters,
and
I
know
many
people
will
be
tuning
in
to
hear
this.
Information
challenges,
of
course,
are
allowed
within
polling
places
under
minnesota
election
law.
It
does
help
preserve
the
integrity
of
that
process,
so
we're
legitimately
appointed
either
by
candidates
or
parties.
Challengers
do
fulfill
that
good
role.
B
It
is
important
to
note
that
under
minnesota
election
law,
however,
that
challengers,
who
are
appointed
to
serve
in
the
polling
places
must
have
personal
knowledge
in
order
to
contest
a
voter's
eligibility
to
get
a
ballot
that
cannot
include
just
mere
suspicion.
It
can't
include.
I
don't
think
that
this
person
is
eligible.
You
have
to
have
personal
knowledge.
Also,
challengers
may
not
interact
with
voters
in
the
polling
places.
They
cannot
speak
to
voters.
They
can't
ask
to
see
information
about
voters.
B
B
I
don't
want
voters
to
hear
that
challengers
in
the
polling
place
in
any
way
would
prohibit
them
from
going
forward
and
accessing
their
ballot.
It
is
a
legitimate
checking
point
within
our
system,
but
it
has
limits
and
those
limits
are
very
strictly
confined,
based
on
personal
knowledge
that
that
voter
has
to
contest
an
eligibility
of
another
voter
and
the
head
judges
are
extensively
trained
in
order
how
to
administer
those
challenging
processes.
A
I
think
what
was
so
frustrating
about
the
federation's
email
you
know,
which
is
hard
to
imagine
that
they
didn't
know
would
be
public,
is
that
it
seemed
to
have
language
that
was
really
targeting
populations
in
minneapolis,
that,
among
other
things,
have
lower
voter
turnout
and
you
can
see
in
the
ward
breakdown
so
far
with
early
voting,
where
you
know
it,
two
things
are
true:
people
are
turning
out
in
minneapolis
in
unprecedented
numbers
for
early
voting
and
there's
a
disparity
across
our
city
and
in
the
percent
of
folks
who
voted
so
far,
and
those
places
that
have
higher
concentrations
of
communities
of
color,
higher
concentrations
of
poverty.
A
A
We
know,
as
you
know,
we
know
the
federation
is
tapping
into
fear
around
law
enforcement
and,
and
it
makes
it
very
frustrating-
and
I
know
the
chief
put
out
a
strong
statement,
but
mr
crow,
what
should
you
do
if
you're
at
your
voting
location
and
something
feels
not
right,
you
feel
scared.
You're,
not
sure.
What's
happening?
Is
right
or
legal,
especially
like?
Is
there
a
civilian
response?
Is
there
a
number
to
call
how
do
voters
access
support
in
a
way
that
they
feel
most
comfortable,
say
they're
at
their
polling
location
on
election
day.
B
Thank
you,
madam
president.
That's
a
very
good
point.
All
voters
should
know
that
the
head
judge,
the
assistant
head
judge
in
every
single
polling
place
is
there
to
monitor
activities
they're
really
not
assigned
to
handle
the
processing
of
ballots
they're
there
to
serve
voters.
Any
voter,
who
has
even
an
inkling
of
a
concern,
a
question
or
or
an
issue
that
they
just
want
confirmed,
should
immediately
go
see.
The
head
or
assistant
head
election
judge
make
themselves
available
their
jet
of
those
judges.
Their
job
is
to
help
address
and
resolve
any
issues
in
the
polling
place.
B
If,
however,
the
raising
it
to
the
head,
judge
or
assistant
head
judge
isn't
satisfactory
to
a
voter
or
they
don't
feel,
it's
been
done
correctly
or
they
just
don't
feel
they
can
do
that
in
the
polling
place.
In
that
moment,
every
voter
in
the
united
states
should
make
good
use
of
the
team
of
highly
trained
and
experienced
lawyers
who
work
with
election
protection,
and
you
should
call
the
election
protection
hotline
report.
Your
issue
every
single
year,
no
matter
what
the
election
is.
Our
elections
team
works
very
closely
with
election
protection
with
common
cause.
B
The
league
of
women,
voters
and
other
voter
advocacy
groups:
we
share
our
plans
with
them
and
they
respond.
They
have
direct
access
to
our
elections
headquarters
on
election
day.
So
if
a
voter
calls
election
protection,
I
can
assure
them
we
will
be
hearing
from
election
protection
and
we
will
immediately
respond
to
those
concerns.
So
again,
the
first
line
of
defense
in
a
civilian
sense
for
any
voter
is
the
head
election
and
assistant
head
election
judge
in
the
polling
place.
A
Thank
you,
and
I
mean
it's
unfortunate-
that
we
even
have
to
be
talking
about
this
minnesota.
Has
such
a
strong
record
of
voting
access
of
nonpartisan
voter
protection
of
you
know
a
bipartisan
or
multi-partisan.
We
saw
the
former
governors
all
come
together
to
send
a
message
about
our
history
of
voting
in
minnesota.
A
I
I
did
note
that
perhaps
someday
we'll
have
some
more
diversity
than
was
was
reflected
in
the
video
but
of
a
different
kind,
but
so
you
know
we
have
safe
voting
in
minnesota.
We
have
supported
voting,
you
know,
so
it's
it.
You
know
we.
A
Hopefully
those
systems
that
have
been
in
place
for
many
many
years
are
the
ones
that
folks
will
be
using
this.
You
know
on
tuesday,
so
thank
you
for
that.
I
don't
see
any
other
questions,
I'll
pause
them
to
see.
If
my
colleagues
have
any
last
questions
or
comments,
and
thank
you
all
for
talking
about
this-
it's
I
know
we
spent
some
time
on
it,
but
I
know
it's
really
important
we're
getting
a
lot
of
questions.
A
And
mr
carl
has
noted
in
the
chat
that
the
election
protection
hotline
is
one
eight
eight
six,
six,
our
vote,
one,
eight,
six
vote.
Okay,
thank
you,
mr
mayor
and
everyone
for
that
presentation,
and
that
concludes
that
item.
We
do
have
the
resolution
that
the
mayor
noted,
which
would
update
for
the
emergency
declaration
reloaded
related
to
the
shelter,
the
tiny
home
shelter,
but
I
will
direct
the
clerk
to
receive
and
file
the
report
first
and
then
we
will
go
to
the
ratification
of
the
declared
state
of
local
public
health
emergency.
B
You'll
note
that,
as
shown
on
the
screen
now,
the
current
resolution
would
include
those
amendments
to
add
the
most
recent
emergency
regulation
issued
by
the
mayor
yesterday,
which
he's
already
discussed,
and
so
that
incorporates
that,
within
this
resolution,
ratifying
and
extending
those
provisions
through
the
term
of
the
emergency
period
within
the
city
of
minneapolis
by
the
city
council,.
A
B
Madame
president,
we're
showing
that
on
the
screen
now,
and
so
we
should
have
the
ability
for
the
public
to
also
see
and,
of
course,
immediately
after
this
meeting,
all
the
documents
will
be
uploaded
to
limbs
for
public
access.
A
Great,
thank
you,
and
I
you
know
I
just
want
to
pause
and
thank
councilmember
goodman,
so
much
for
all
of
her
efforts
on
this
tiny
homes
project.
I
know
we
had
some
time
to
talk
about
it
in
committee,
but
I
think
absent
the
relationships
council,
member
that
you've
formed
over
your
years
in
office.
I
don't
think
that
project
would
be
moving
forward
so
swiftly.
So
thanks
for
your
leadership
and
everything,
you've
done
there
any
other
questions
or
comments.
I
will
go
ahead
and
move
this
item.

you,

you

is

Number

upper
harbor
services
area.
Item
number
11
is
hennepin
county's
hra
project
at
5637,
lindale
and
143
19th
street
southeast
item
number.
12
are
a
long
list
of
applications
for
environmental
grant
funding.
This
is
the
2020
brownfield
round.
D
These
are
applications
that
are
going
to
deed,
as
well
as
the
tax-based
revitalization
account
and
hennepin
county's
environmental
response
fund.
Item
number
13
are
grant
applications
to
the
livable
communities.
Demonstration
account
program

14
is

well.
D
Item
17
is
an
mou
related
to
stable
home,
stable

Item
18.
Probably
one
of
the
largest
items
on
our
agenda
today
is
participating
in
the
met
council's
local
housing
initiatives
account
program.
This
basically
sets
the
city's
goal
to
build
1
924
to
3
499,
new,
affordable
housing
units
for
the
period
between
2021
and
2030.
D
So
this
is
essentially
what
the
city
is
agreeing
to
as
a
goal
and
then,
lastly,
and
perhaps
the
most
interesting
item
on
the
agenda,
is
this
really
great
community
preference
policy
which
would
allow
us
to
adopt
a
community
preference
for
housing
programs?
This
would
mean
that
residents
in
certain
areas
would
get
first
option
to
participate
in
these
homeowner,
affordable,
homeowner
initiatives.
With
that,
I'm
happy
to
answer
questions
or
move
and
move
items
1
through
19
for
approval.
This
morning.

Thank
you
so
much.
Madam
president,
the
executive
committee
brings
forward
one
item
today,
which
is
the
appointment
of
brian
tyner
to
the
appointed
position
of
fire
chief.
F

A

M
M
Everyone
on
the
elections,
team,
and
especially
our
election
judges,
are,
are
stepping
up
in
a
major
way
to
help
our
city
and
to
make
sure
that
this
election
is
really
accessible,
and
so
I'm
I'm
happy
to
bring
this
forward
and,
and-
and
I
really
appreciate
all
of
you-
supporting
this
and
and
and
supporting
the
work
and
respecting
the
work
of
our
election
judges.
M
So
I
just
want
to
offer
that
appreciation
and,
of
course
thank
thank
the
clerk
and
his
elections
team
for
all
the
work
that
they've
done
so.
A
C
Yes,
thank
you.
Madam
president.
I
am
honored
to
bring
forward
this
resolution.
I
just
want
to
go
ahead
and
read
it.
I
think
that
it's
worthwhile
for
us
just
to
take
a
moment
to
really
reflect
on
this.
C
So
the
resolution
reads
as
whereas
domestic
violence
is
one
of
the
most
common
and
least
visible
forms
of
violence
that
affect
many
areas
of
life,
for
its
primary
and
secondary
victims.
And
whereas
domestic
violence
takes
many
forms,
including
sexual,
psychological,
emotional
and
physical,
and
whereas
it
can
include
economic
deprivation
and
isolation
that
can
cause
imminent
danger
and
harm
to
the
safety,
health
and
well-being
of
the
whole
sin.
C
And
whereas
children
in
homes
in
which
intimate
partner
violence
takes
place
are
disproportionately
likely
to
grow
up
to
be
victims
and
or
perpetrators
of
violence
in
their
own
homes
and
out
in
the
community.
And
whereas
to
stop
the
cycle
of
intimate
partner.
Violence,
boys
and
men
must
play
a
role
by
dismantling
cultural
norms
of
toxic
masculinity
and
normalized
violence,
and
whereas
all
victims
and
survivors
of
violence
and
the
diverse
ways
in
which
they
self-identify
deserve
to
be
seen,
heard
and
treated
with
respect
and
dignity.
C
And
whereas
we
have
a
duty
to
protect
both
civil
and
human
rights
and
enhance
our
response
to
victims
through
regional
partnerships,
education,
outreach
and
enforcement
of
the
law,
and
whereas
the
coven
19
pandemic
of
2020
has
impacted
survivors
of
violence
and
trauma
through
increased
isolation
in
unsafe
homes,
increased
strain
on
volatile
situations
and
more
barriers
to
seeking
help.
Now,
therefore,
let
it
be
resolved
that
the
mayor
and
the
city
council
do
hereby
declare
october
2020
as
domestic
violence
awareness
month
and
the
city
of
minneapolis.
C
C
C
Thank
you,
everyone
for
for
joining,
and
I
also
just
want
to
give
thank
you
to
the
organizations
who
do
this
work
on
the
ground,
such
as
the
domestic
abuse
project,
the
tubman
center
cornerstone
corner
house
and
I'm
sure
I'm
missing
some
others
in
this
quick
succession,
but
just
want
to
make
sure
to
take
the
time
to
say.
Thank
you
to
all
of
you
who
do
this
work,
this
life-saving
work,
this
life-changing
work
and
for
domestic
victims
and
survivors.
C
A
J
C
D
F
F
G
F
A
J
Item,
thank
you
very
much
and
I
would
like
to
move
forward
a
amended
version
of
the
ordinance
and
I
think
everybody
should
have
that
and
the
clerks
have
it
as
well.
Maybe
we
can
even
display
it
on
the
screen
and
I
can
kind
of
go
over
the
main
things,
but
I
just
want
everybody
to
know
that
you
may
recall
we
postponed
this.
J
J
Basically,
what
we've
done
at
following
two
meetings
that
I
actually
have
had
with
property
owners,
especially
some
of
the
larger
real
estate
associations
and
organizations
about
this,
is
limiting.
We
have
limited
or
brought
back
the
scale
of
this
ordinance.
Originally,
it
was
proposed
to
be
notice
about
sales
of
commercial
and
industrial
property.
City-Wide
we've
taken
the
industrial
properties
out
of
this
and
I'll
just
note
that
we
never
included
the
downtown
business
district,
which
has
its
own
zoning,
but
we've
also
now
limited
it
to
the
cultural
districts.
J
What
I've
seen
happen
in
some
parts
of
our
city,
even
when
we
make
an
enormous
public
investment
like
a
light
rail
line,
what
that
seems
to
do
to
have
ripple
effects
on
the
property
values
and
the
market
in
terms
of
commercial
property,
and
so
there
are
certain
areas
of
the
town
where
we've
lost
lots
of
our
smaller
independent
businesses
because
of
a
gentrification
that
kind
of
occurs
or
a
displacement
that
kind
of
occurs
when
the
property
values
go
up
and
more
people
are
interested
in
it.
J
When
we
were
looking
at
the
what
had
happened
after
the
riots
and
the
destructions
of
many
properties
in
the
city
of
minneapolis.
Recently,
we
realized
that
there
were.
There
was
a
risk
there
of
a
lot
of
properties
being
sold
and
potentially
flipped
and
changing
in
value.
So
we
thought
advance
notice
would
make
a
lot
of
sense.
I
actually
had
people
coming
to
me
suggesting
it
thinking
that
would
give
others
an
opportunity,
maybe
to
come
in,
who
might
be
more
community
oriented
in
doing
some
development
there.
So
we
drafted
the
first
ordinance
after
these
meetings.
J
We
narrowed
it
down
quite
a
bit.
We've
taken
some
of
the
requirements
out
of
the
ordinance,
but
it
still
maintains
the
60-day
notice.
J
I
will
tell
you
that
it
was
a
little
bit
challenging
for
me
to
restrict
it
to
cultural
districts,
because
there
are
no
cultural
districts
in
the
second
ward,
and
this
actually
excludes
some
of
the
properties
there.
But
then
I
went
back
and
I
and
I
looked
at
some
of
the
work
we've
done
on
the
cultural
districts
and
including
policy
34
in
our
comp
plan
that
calls
this
out,
and
it
really
was
clear
to
me
that
this
was
kind
of
this.
This
notice.
This
is
the
first
place.
We
should
probably
be
applying
it.
A
Thank
you,
councilmember
I'll.
Second,
the
motion
for
discussion
purposes
and
we
have
several
council
members
in
q
council.
Vice
president
jenkins,.
F
Thank
you,
madam
president.
I
I
will
state
that
I'm
pleased
that
this
amended
ordinance
is
now
limited
to
cultural
districts.
F
That
is,
as
you
all
know,
something
that
you
know,
equity
and
preventing
displacement
in
those
districts
are
at
most
important
to
myself
and
I
think
all
of
us,
as
as
our
strategic
and
racial
equity
plans,
have
exhibited
I'm
just
curious.
It
comes
remember
because
one
of
the
things
that
I
keep
hearing
from
constituents
is
that
they
feel
like
there's,
been
little
public
engagement
or
input.
F
So
I'm
hoping
you
can
talk
a
little
bit
about
that
and
then
is
there
a
plan
or
how
will
we
communicate
this
to
small
business
owners
this
this
messaging
to
small
commercial
property
owners
so
that
they
are
aware
of
this
ordinance
and
not
in
violation
as
it
were.
J
So
I
can
respond
to
that
a
little
bit.
We,
I
think
that,
in
the
delays
and
in
the
reaching
out,
I
think
we
were
able
to
communicate
more
fully.
I
will
admit
that,
in
the
crafting
of
the
original
design,
it
was
focused
more
working
with
our
partners
in
the
second,
the
ninth
and
eighth
ward,
including
the
lake
street
council
and
others
where
it
was
discussed
extensively
at
some
of
the
meetings
with
those
business
associations
and
those
community
organizations.
J
But
with
the
extra
time
we
were
also
able
to
reach
out
to
other
property
owners
and
organizations
and
meet
with
them.
I
know
they
also
met
with
our
economic
development
director
eric
hanson
and
had
discussions
with
them,
and
I
two
virtual
meetings
with
with
groups
of
leaders
in
the
area
there,
so
we
were
able
to
have
those
discussions,
a
lot
of
the
changes
and
the
details
and
some
of
the
exemptions
actually
came
from
conversations
right
there.
J
We
also
have
business
licensing,
that's
been
involved
in
this,
and
I
think
one
of
the
things
that
we
can
do
is
certainly
push
out
the
information
that
way.
I
think
this
delay
has
also
helped
people
learn
a
lot
more
about
it
and
there's
more
conversations
going
on
out
there,
but
once
hopefully,
if
this
passes,
then
there
will
certainly
be
an
implementation
plan
and
a
communication
plan
that
we'll
have
to
follow.
A
Thank
you
counselor.
I
just
want
to
note
before
we
continue
that
there
is
a
note
from
the
clerk
that
there's
some
technical
issues,
so
I
just
want
to
pause
and
make
sure
that
we
should
continue
here
with
this
discussion
or
if
we
should
wait
until
those
are
resolved.
B
Madam
president,
the
live
stream
that's
showing
on
the
city's
youtube
channel
is
still
proceeding.
The
television
broadcast
is
temporarily
down.
I
would
recommend
that,
if
possible,
we
just
suspend
recess
briefly
and
folks
can
turn
off
their
cameras
and
microphones
and
I'll.
Let
you
know
as
soon
as
that
broadcast
signal
is
back
up
and
running
should
just
be
a
few
minutes.
A
Okay,
thank
you,
mr
clerk,
so
with
that
we
will
just
briefly
join
me
to
officially
recess.
This
meeting
sounds
like
it.
A
We'll
take
a
recess
until
the
clerk
notifies
us
that
the
feed
is
back.
Thank
you,
mr.
A
B
A
Off,
thank
you,
mr
clerk
I'll
call
the
meeting
back
to
order.
We
were
just
in
the
middle
of
a
discussion
where
councilmember
gordon
was
answering
a
question
from
council.
Vice
president
about
the
process
of
this
ordinance
development
council
vice
president,
did
you
have
anything
else
as
a
follow-up?
There
are
a
lot
of
other
customers
like
you
as
well,
but
I
want
to
make
sure
you
have
a
chance
to
finish
up.
If
you
have
anything
further.
F
F
E
Thank
you,
madam
president,
and
I
want
to
start
off
by
saying
I
really
appreciate
the
intention
of
the
authors
on
this
ordinance.
I
think
this
is
a
huge
issue
that
we're
facing
in
the
community
around
affordable
commercial
space
and
seeing
gentrification
happen,
and
I'm
very
much
looking
at
a
number
of
solutions.
E
I
know
we've
worked
on
some
different
pieces
of
this
together
as
well,
and
we
have
additional
things
that
are
being
worked
on,
such
as
a
resolution
supporting
community-led
efforts
around
really
a
lot
of
the
epicenter
of
the
civil
unrest
and
destruction
that
we've
seen
in
greater
longfellow.
E
That
said,
I
do
have
concerns
with
both
the
process
and
the
substance
of
this.
I
want
to
start
by
noting
that
I
know
that
council
member
gordon,
has
done
a
bunch
of
outreach
on
this,
particularly
to
kind
of
centralize
business
associations,
beaumont
students,
I
believe
lake
street
council,
and
so
I
appreciate
that.
E
But
with
this
latest
scope,
we
really
have
hundreds
of
individual
property
owners
that
are
going
to
be
impacted,
and
I'm
wondering
do
these
property
owners
really
know
about
this,
and
the
impact
we've
seen
multiple
changes
in
direction
happen
with
this
ordinance,
and
so
my
concern
is
that
they're
not
really
aware
that
this
is
affecting
them
and
what
their
responsibilities
would
be
under
it
from
a
process
standpoint.
E
You
know
this
happened
without
even
knowing
about
it
and
it
really
impacts
them.
Another
piece
from
a
process
standpoint
is,
I
haven't
heard,
but
would
be
interested
to
hear
from
the
authors
about
cped
capacity.
For
this
I
know
on
other
things,
we're
working
on
cped
says
they
do
not
have
staff
capacity.
E
They
continue
to
hit
that
message
over
and
over
again.
So
the
idea
of
cpad
now
taking
on
this
additional
work,
that's
going
to
have
them
taking
potentially
notice
from
these
hundreds
of
properties
and
then
distributing
them
out
throughout
the
community
each
time
so
that
we're
able
to
actually
realize
the
intents
of
this
of
retaining
community
ownership
and
making
sure
that
community
development
corporations
and
non-profits
and
others
know
about
sales
happening
is
frankly
a
big
undertaking,
and
it
has
a
resource
impact.
E
I'd
like
to
understand
that
better
from
cped
standpoint
and
if
we
are
going
to
be
de-prioritizing
any
work
within
cped
in
order
to
take
on
this
additional
work
or
if
there
are
additional
resources
being
proposed
in
this
case,
to
do
this
work
on
the
substance
of
this,
the
the
solution
itself,
you
know
if
the
goal
is
to
have
these
non-profits
acquire
properties
so
that
they
can
be
more
community
centric,
and
that
is
the
goal
in
a
lot
of
cases.
E
If
that's,
the
intent
is
to
be
able
to
communicate
that
with
community
development
corporations
and
such
which
I
understand
this
is
the
intent.
You
know
that
can
already
happen
today.
Without
this
regulation
or
ordinance
in
place,
there
is
not
only
nothing
stopping,
but
really
these
community
development
corporations
should
be
reaching
out
to
property
owners
within
the
areas
of
their
work
in
asking
them.
E
What
are
your
plans
for
this
property,
and
if
you
do
go
out
for
sale,
we
would
be
interested
in
discussing
acquisition
with
you
and
that
would
allow
them
to
connect
up
sooner
than
60
days
notice,
which,
at
in
a
real
estate
world
frankly,
is
scrambling
to
try
to
pull
together
funds
and
make
things
happen
if
you're
not
expecting
it.
So
I
personally
think
it's
better
to
be
proactive
and
do
that
work
on
the
front,
and
instead
this
really
puts
things
backwards.
E
Instead
of
doing
the
outreach
to
property
owners
and
saying
hey,
we're
interested
in
acquiring
your
property
or
hey
we're
interested
in
keeping
this
owned
within
the
community,
it's
now
forcing
all
the
individual
property
owners
to
essentially
report
that
out.
I
do
have
concerns
with
the
legality
of
this
and
also
the
enforceability.
E
You
know
what
is
the
consequence
of
a
property
owner
doesn't
know
about
this
and
decides
to
make
a
sale
and
they're
in
violation
of
this.
Is
it
a
200
fine,
which
is
the
administrative
citation,
if
so,
they're
just
going
to
do
that
they're
going
to
pay
the
fine
or
the
fee,
and
it's
200
dollars
less,
that
they'll
have
and
it
hasn't
actually
materialized
in
the
outcome
that
we're
seeking
to
do.
E
It
also
comes
with
an
unintended
consequence
or
cost
with
this.
If
you're,
a
small,
independent
business
owner
you
own
this
property
of
yours-
and
you
want
to
go
to
sell,
and
now
you
realize
hey,
I
gotta
wait
an
extra
two
months,
that's
two
more
months
of
holding
that
you're
gonna
have
to
pay
commercial
property
taxes
which
are
higher
by
the
way
than
residential
property
taxes.
So
it
comes
with
a
cost
of
likely
a
thousand
plus
dollars,
sometimes
in
some
cases
several
thousand
dollars
for
these
property
owners.
E
If
there's
that
delay
that's
added
on-
and
so
you
know,
is
the
city
going
to
be
paying
that
cost,
or
is
it
just
expected
they're
going
to
pay
that
cost
so
that
there's
the
benefit
of
the
city
knowing
in
advance
of
of
their
intent
to
sell,
and
then
that
kind
of
ties
back
into
the
piece
of
is
this
actually
getting
us
to
that
outcome?
E
Because
are
they
actually
inking
a
deal
or
coming
up
with
a
sale
first
and
then
they
just
simply
have
to
sit
on
their
hands
for
60
days
in
order
to
comply
with
this
ordinance,
or
would
they
just
pay
the
200
administrative
fee?
So
you
know
when
I
think
about
these
things.
I
think.
Is
this
really
the
right
solution
for
the
problem
we're
trying
to
solve
to
me?
E
We
would
have
a
much
more
generous
timeline
and
able
to
be
able
to
work
to
selling
to
other
community
owners,
we'd
be
able
to
put
out
rfps,
which
would
then
actually
be
able
to
better
control
the
outcomes
so
that
we
could
actually
see
in
the
materialization
of
what
the
community
is
interested
in
happening
with
those
spaces.
So
I
think,
if
we're
actually
interested
in
driving
the
outcomes,
that's
the
better
solution.
E
E
As
far
as
I
can
tell-
and
I
work
very
closely
with
some
of
these
organizations,
whether
it's
like
street
council
or
steward
redesign
or
others,
and
the
only
emails
I've
gotten
have
been
from
people
really
concerned
about
the
unintended
consequences
of
this
and
the
cost
associated
with
it,
and
it
not
resulting
in
what
we
want
it
to
result
in.
I
have
not
had
anyone
reaching
out
saying
hey.
This
is
a
really
great
solution.
That's
going
to
solve
this
problem,
so
I
really
really
appreciate
the
intent
behind
this.
I
think
that's
an
intent.
E
A
D
Thank
you.
Madam
president.
This
is
a
hot
mess,
it's
bad
on
a
process,
point
of
view,
and
it's
not
going
to
achieve
the
goal
that
the
authors
intend
it
to
achieve
so
I'll
break
this
down.
We
had
a
public
hearing
in
committee
and
not
one
person
spoke.
No
one
sent
a
comment.
No
one
signed
up
on
the
phone
call
because
no
one
had
any
idea.
This
was
happening.
D
It
then
moved
forward
to
the
city
council,
where
folks
in
the
community
heard
it
was
happening
and
were
in
touch
with
council
member
gordon
who
has
been
trying
to
work
with
them.
In
all
fairness,
for
about
three
weeks
when
council
member
glidden
and
I
authored
advanced
notice
of
sale
for
affordable
housing
units,
we
spent
three
years-
probably
a
year
too
long
in
my
opinion,
but
three
years
working
on
trying
to
get
some
sort
of
consensus
and
something
that
would
actually
work.
D
We
have
the
support
of
staff,
as
well
as
a
large
number
of
people
in
the
industry
itself,
saying
that
this
was
a
problem
we
could
solve
by
advance
notice
here.
This
notice
does
not
stop
displacement.
It
just
doesn't
all
it
does.
Is
delay
a
sale?
That's
what
it's
about.
We
might
as
well
call
it
the
delay
of
sale
ordinance
because
that's
what
it
does
and
I
think
what
is
misunderstood
here
is:
there
are
tons
of
bipac
people
who
own
buildings
too
and
they're
the
ones
who
are
going
to
be
negatively
affected.
D
They're,
probably
not
even
aware
that
this
is
something
that's
happening
right
now.
So
those
of
you
who
have
these
properties
in
the
cultural
districts
see
this
as
a
benefit.
I'm
not
sure
what
benefit
it's
almost
like
punishing
small
business
owners
in
commercial
and
cultural
corridors
by
telling
them
they
cannot
sell
their
businesses
without
putting
out
some
sort
of
notice.
D
It
just
makes
no
sense
to
me.
So
we
have
an
issue
with
the
public
hearing
that
no
one
spoke
at,
and
the
extent
of
the
engagement
was
three
weeks
with
a
couple
council
members,
as
well
as
a
number
of
emails
to
the
rest
of
us,
and
we
have
something
that
just
does
not
solve
the
problem.
This
is
not
going
to
stop
displacement,
not
at
all.
All
it's
doing
is
slowing
a
sale
and
we
have
no
idea
who
these
property
owners
are.
Who
could
be
affected?
D
This
is
a
capitalistic
environment,
real
estate
people
are
going
to
sell
to
the
highest
price,
that's
how
real
estate
works,
and
so
I
really
feel
like
what
we're
doing
is
we're
telling
people
we
can
solve
a
problem
through
this
that
we
cannot
solve.
Council
member
johnson
did
a
very
good
job
of
outlining
all
of
the
implementation
problems
with
this
and
the
notice
problems
with
this.
I
do
think
that
the
concern
about
properties
being
sold
out
from
under
tenants
is
legit.
D
That's
what
leases
are
for,
and
maybe
there
is
something
we
can
do
as
it
pertains
to
the
way
commercial
properties
and
cultural
districts
deal
with
leases
with
their
tenants,
but
even
that
I
would
think
would
have
some
level
of
property
right
associated
with
it.
Ultimately,
this
is
promising
people,
something
we
simply
can't
do,
and
I
can't
do
that
because
I
don't
feel
that
this
is
helping
properties
and
cultural
districts.
If
anything,
it's
tying
their.
H
Thank
you.
Madam
president.
I
appreciate
the
conversation
here.
Thank
you,
councilmember,
gordon,
for
all
of
the
work
that
your
office
has
been
willing
to
do
with
me
on
this
front.
I
want
to
go
back
to
a
little
bit
of
the
history
of
how
this
ordinance
idea
came
to
be
so
when
kova
19
hit.
H
My
office
took
on
a
weekly
briefing
with
lake
street
stakeholders
and
latino
leaders
throughout
the
twin
cities
region
to
talk
about
what
were
we
going
to
do
as
a
community
to
support
one
another
through
this
unprecedented
time,
and
so
we
would
meet
weekly
from
12
to
1
30
pm.
It
was
a
huge
toll
on
my
office
because
we
would
have
to
line
up
speakers.
We.
J
H
Have
to
get
the
agendas
ready,
it
was
a
kind
of
an
insane
work
pace
and
slowly
when
the
civil
unrest
hit
our
city
and
lake
street
was
decimated,
we
began
to
shift
those
meetings
to
include
conversations
about
lake
street
recovery,
and
so
those
meetings,
as
I
mentioned,
would
happen
weekly.
It
was
non-profit
leaders,
workers,
rights
organizations,
foundations,
nonprofits
businesses,
residents,
and
we
would
talk
about
what
are
we
going
to
do
to
save
save
lake
street?
H
What
are
some
of
the
regulatory
measures
that
can
be
put
in
place
to
ensure
that
vulnerable
vulnerable
businesses
were
not
going
to
be
displaced
and
gentrified
out
of
lake
street
once
these
buildings
became
available
for
either
resale
or
reconstruction
or
any
other
sort
of
economic
shift?
That
would
happen
as
a
result
of
the
unplanned
for
global
pandemic
and
the
civil
unrest.
H
So,
through
those
conversations
we
explored
a
lot
of
different
things.
Rent
control
for
commercial
properties,
eminent
domain
certainly
write
a
first
refusal
for
tenants,
and
so
those
conversations
started
to
evolve
and
a
lot
of
those
ideas
were
essentially
ideas
that
could
not
be
pursued
due
to
state
level
restrictions.
H
H
I
believe
it's
called
the
promise
act
and
one
of
the
authors
is
state
representative,
mahmoud
noor,
and
so
there
is
a
lot
of
interest
to
pursue
these
kinds
of
protections
for
areas
that
are
extremely
vulnerable
and
that
are
facing
very
unique
circumstances,
circumstances
that
are
not
replicable
or
seen
in
other
parts
of
our
city.
H
I
drive
to
other
wards
and
the
difference
is
night
and
day
I
mean
I
feel
like
I'm
in
a
different
country
when
I
go
to
some
of
the
other
wards
in
our
city,
and
so
it's
it's
appropriate
that
I
think
this
ordinance
went
through
so
much
vetting
and
conversation
both
from
its
birth
to
now
its
proposed
vote.
H
I've
been
thankful
that
we've
been
able
to
delay
twice
this
vote
and
that
there
has
been
a
lot
of
conversations
outside
of
this
particular
televised
meeting
to
engage
people
with
it
with
its
further
iterations.
Certainly
I
don't
want
council
members
to
erase
all
of
the
work
that
has
happened.
That
has
not
hit
your
desk,
but
that
the
rest
of
us
have
been
carrying
on
our
shoulders
because
we
face
the
destruction
of
lake
street,
and
so
I
think
it's
really
important
from
a
racial
equity
and
racial
justice.
H
Analysis
to
honor
that
work
and
to
honor
that
voice,
which
is
a
lot
of
the
voices
that
the
council
members
of
color,
carry
on
this
body
because
of
the
nature
of
what
our
districts
represent
and
who
lives
here,
and
so
the
the
time
came
to
narrow
zero
in
on
on
some
kind
of
measure
that
the
council
could
do
that.
H
The
city
could
do
on
this
front
because
it
just
felt
like
all
of
the
power
lay
in
other
people's
hands,
and
so
it's
important
for
us
to
demonstrate
what
we
can
do
for
our
communities
and
in
much
the
same
way
that
councilmember
cunningham
is
is
doing
what
he
can
for
his
community
around
violence
prevention
and
reducing
reducing
some
of
the
harm
that
he
has
seen
spiked
up
in
his
in
his
ward.
H
It's
the
same
thing
that
some
of
us
are
doing
for
for
our
ward
on
this
particular
issue,
because
our
portion
of
lake
street
was
extremely
impacted
in
ways
that
others
weren't,
and
so,
when
we
started
to
put
this
idea
together,
I
reached
out
to
councilmember
schrader
councilmember,
gordon
and
councilmember
ellison,
because
I
knew
they
had
a
strong
body
of
work
on
this
similar
issue,
but
but
in
the
housing
world,
and
so
there
we
decided
to
go
ahead
and
put
together
this
idea
and
to
work
with
staff
on
it.
H
Staff
have
been
very
involved
from
the
city
attorney's
office
to
to
cped,
and
I
think
that
a
lot
of
the
questions
and
concerns
that
councilmember
johnson
has
put
on
the
table
are
certainly
legitimate
and
very
applicable
to
be
operationalized
under
the
purview
of
city
staff.
As
we
look
into
implementation
once
we
decide
as
a
body
if
this
is
something
we
will
approve
today.
Obviously
I
would
like
for
us
to
approve
this
today.
So
so
we
had
several
meetings
with
council
members
to
come
up
with
the
design
and
the
concept.
H
We
certainly
went
through
the
most
formal,
official
and
public
process
that
any
city
ordinance
has
to
take
and
that's
no
secret,
because
it's
been
publicly
codified
and
public
hearing
a
public
hearing
was
held,
which
is
our
our
paramount
way
of
signifying
that
we're
working
on
something
so
that
that
led
to
us
here
where
we
are
today.
H
After
a
lot
of
conversations
and-
and
rightly
so-
the
ordinance
began
as
a
very
big
city-wide
approach,
because
that's
what
some
of
the
council
members
who
were
supporting
this
initiative,
thought
could
be
done
and
at
the
time
we
as
authors
agreed-
and
we
thought
it
would
be
a
good
idea
to
go
after
a
city-wide
approach.
And
then
we
started
to
have
more
conversations
with
all
of
you,
and
then
it
was
decided
that
it
was
best
to
be
presented
as
a
cultural,
district's
application,
which
also
feels
right.
That's
that's
totally
fine.
We
can.
H
We
can
try
it
at
that
level
and-
and
should
this
ordinance
have
unintended
negative
racial
impacts
on
low-income
communities
and
communities
of
color,
which
is
the
communities
we're
trying
to
uplift
through
this
work
by
leveling
the
playing
field
of
how
commercial
property
sales
are
done,
then
we
certainly
as
a
body
you
have
the
power
to
rescind
that
ordinance.
H
So
I
would
say
that
giving
this
ordinance
an
opportunity
to
live
and
to
be
implemented
is
really
important,
because
there
has
been
a
lot
of
community
engagement,
particularly
particularly
from
those
who
are
in
vulnerable
situations,
who
don't
speak
english,
who
don't
have
the
ability
to
hire
anybody
to
lobby
for
them
or
to
navigate
the
the
difficult
terrain
of
commercial
estate?
H
In
some
instances
we
know
that
commercial
properties
are
sold
over
cocktails,
they
are
not
sold
in
a
fair
and
free
market
where
a
person
of
color
is
seen
or
valued
as
an
equal
player
in
the
broader
scheme
of
who
owns
our
city
and
who
right?
Who
has
rights
to
our
city,
and
so
I
just
want
to
clarify
that
the
intent
of
this
policy
is
advance
notice,
advance
notice.
We
are
not
asking
the
city
to
buy
property.
We
all
know
that
that
money
is
is
small
and
dwindling.
H
If
other
council
members
want
to
get
more
money
to
buy
property,
please
by
all
means.
I
will
support
you
in
that.
I
think
that's
a
great
idea,
it's
a
great
addendum
to
this
body
of
work,
but
that
is
not
the
intent
of
this
resolution
of
this
ordinance.
H
I
think
it's
great
that
they're
going
to
be
held
to
the
same
standard,
because
some
of
our
folks,
when
they
get
money
and
they
make
it
big-
they
don't
think
about
the
little
guy
that
they
once
were
and
how
they
can
support
those
folks.
And
to
that
end,
I
should
note
that
there
is
already
a
commercial
land
trust
model
that
has
been
worked
on
for
the
last
five
years
and
the
city
of
lakes.
H
Land
trust
is
the
holder
of
that
process
and
that
project
and
they've
been
facing
a
lot
of
challenges
because
they
need
to
be
able
to
buy
land
at
a
cheap
enough
price,
sometimes
a
dollar
to
be
able
to
make
it
financially
sustainable
for
the
commercial
land,
trust
to
survive
and
live,
and
so
those
ideas,
you
know,
have
do
exist
and
they
exist
outside
of
the
city.
The
city
has
supported
them,
but
the
city
can't
be
the
the
driver
of
some
of
those
things
for
legal
reasons
and
for
purchasing
power
reasons.
H
If
the
city
is
involved
in
any
sale
of
any
property.
You
all
know
that
this,
the
price
of
that
property
goes
up
because
everybody
thinks
the
city
has
so
much
money.
So
so
there's
a
lot
of
things
that
are
at
work
here,
that
that
do
complement
each
other
and
what
this
particular
ordinance
does
is
add
to
that
ecosystem
of
the
quality
of
accessibility
of
transparency
of
anti-displacement
anti-gentrification
work
that
we
as
a
body
have
said
many
times.
H
We
want
to
be
supportive
of
and
a
leader
in,
so
I
don't
think
this
is
the
antithesis
to
that,
and
I
also
don't
think
this
is
the
silver
bullet
to
how
we're
going
to
save
our
city
from
the
destruct
destruction.
That's
happened
to
it.
I
think
this
is
actually
one
chapter
in
a
much
bigger
book
that
I
hope
the
rest
of
you
and
all
of
us
can
build
more
chapters
into.
H
So
I
just
wanted
to
clarify
that
you
know
I
don't
want
people
to
be
confused,
that
this
is
about
the
city
buying
property,
not
at
all.
This
is
strictly
about
more
transparency
in
that
commercial
sale
industry
and
making
sure
that
folks
are
transparent,
with
their
intents
and
their
decisions,
when
they're
trying
to
get
rid
or
dispose
of
their
property
and
at
the
end
of
the
day
you
know
folks,
don't
want
to
sell
their
property,
they
don't
have
to.
They
can
risk
in
that
move.
H
They
don't
have
they're
not
forced
to
continue
with
a
sale
that
doesn't
seem
to
be
fitting
their
needs,
and
certainly
if
over
time,
we
see
that
this
ordinance
doesn't
have
an
intended
positive
impact
or
in
fact,
that
it's
having
a
detrimental
impact
on
communities,
we
can
certainly
rescind
it
from
the
books,
just
like
we've
done
with
some
other
ordinances.
H
So
I
don't
want
us
to
feel
like
the
sky
is
falling
here.
I
want
us
to
look
at
this
as
one
of
the
many
many
things
that
our
council
and
staff
and
and
residents
have
been
doing,
to
try
to
reduce
displacement,
reduce
gentrification
in
areas
that
have
already
been
targeted
for
that
kind
of
change.
H
So
with
that
I'll
just
say
that
I'm
I'm
feeling
really
good
about
the
process
we
put
together.
There's
been
a
lot
of
input
already.
This
idea
comes
from
those
very
impacted
communities
who
have
been
left
behind
and
left
out
of
a
lot
of
conversations
that
are
taking
place
about
recovery,
and
I
really
hope
that
we
can
all
come
together
to
support
this
and
approve
it.
Thank
you.
K
K
I
have
a
concern,
however,
this
doesn't
only
open
up
on
private
private
transaction
between
sellers
and
big
corporation,
but
also
will
highlight
the
transaction
between
our
local
community
business
owners
right
now,
locals
often
sell
to
locals
or
within
the
same
cultural
because
of
trust,
comfortability,
and
because
that's
where
their
connections
are.
K
K
It's
very
important
that
as
council
member
connor
put
it
very
well
that
it's
is
to
reduce.
You
know
displacement
for
the
folks
that
have
been
affected
heavily
on
the
the
civil
unrest
and
private
damages
that
have
been
there.
K
That's
why
I
believe
it's
important
that
we
build
up
a
political
agency
and
community
ownership
over
this
commercial
corridor,
especially
for
la
for
east
lake
street
council
member
and
I
council,
member
kano-
and
I
are
planning
to
introduce
resolution
in
the
near
future-
recognizes
in
the
formal
coalition
of
immigrant
business
owners
on
east
lake
street
that
their
voice
is
present
on
every
rebuilding
effort
that
we
make
on
cultural
corridors
if
we
and
the
business
owners
are
successful
in
powering
this
coalition,
I
believe
an
audience
like
the
one
we're
talking
about
and
the
one
we're
about
to
vote
on
could
give
them
a
tool
to
better
preserve
cultural
vibrancy
on
east
lake
street
business
corridors.
C
Thank
you
ben
president.
I
I
appreciate
the
intention
behind
this
ordinance
and
and
really
from
my
understanding,
is
that
the
outcome
intended
for
this
ordinance
is
to
increase
community
ownership
and
prevent
gentrification
and
displacement.
C
C
You
know
I'll
speak
to
the
black
community
and
black
entrepreneurs
and
and
and
business
owners,
because
I've
read
quite
a
bit
of
research,
but
the
the
barriers
are
lack
of
access
to
capital,
lack
of
access
to
credit
and
a
trust
gap,
so
not
trusting
the
systems
in
order
that
are
involved,
like
the
governments,
like
banks
like
real
estate
companies
and
so
those
barriers.
C
None
of
those
are
addressed
through
a
60-day
delay
and
after
the
60
days.
C
C
I
just
based
on
like
I,
I
don't
have
I've
not
heard
yet
a
clear
connection
between
the
this
particular
approach
and
the
outcomes
and-
and
there
are
a
lot
of
gaps
of
barriers
that
are
unaddressed
still
through
this
particular
approach,
and
so,
if
there's
not
a
clear
connection
between
like
logical
connection
between
this
approach
and
the
outcomes,
but
we
see
ways
that
it
doesn't
address
to
achieve
those
outcomes,
then
my
concern
is
that
really
what
we're
doing
is
we're
opening
up
first
phase
for
unintended
consequences.
C
This
feels
very
high
risk
without
having
again
addressed
many
of
the
underlying
issues
that
prevent
folks
from
bypass
communities
from
being
able
to
own
commercial
real
estate.
Again,
I
agree
with
the
intention
of
this
of
this
ordinance
of
this
work
and
also
I
I
do
not
see
how
this
ordinance
is
going
to
be
able
to
achieve
the
outcomes
that
folks
are
looking
to
achieve
so
so
as
of
right
now.
I
cannot
support
this
ordinance.
C
I
would
support
it
going
being
referred
back
to
staff
or
for
more
work
to
be
done
if
that's
something
that
folks
are
open
to,
but
I
think
that
I,
I
think
that
this
is
very
high
risk
and,
and
there
isn't
a
lot
of
evidence
behind
why
this
particular
approach
will
achieve
the
outcomes
that
folks
are
looking
for.
Thank
you.
M
Thank
you,
madam
president.
You
know
no
one
strategy
on
any
issue
that
we
have
taken
up
as
a
council
has
been
fixed
with
a
single
policy.
You
know
our
housing
policy.
I
think
every
single
council
member
here
has
has
addressed
housing
in
some
way
and
each
policy
sort
of
builds
on
the
next
one
in
order
to
to
reach
the
outcome
that
we're
looking
for.
M
You
know,
I
think,
about
the
the
preference
policy
that
staff
has
been
working
on,
which
I
think
is
an
incredible
policy
which
I
think
is
going
to
help
address
some
of
the
displacement
issues
that
we're
having
and
address,
gentrification
and
and
the
kind
of
development
that
leads
to
this
placement
of
working-class
people
and
people
who
have
you
know,
made
certain
neighborhoods
their
homes
for
a
long
time,
but
again
without
you
know,
lack,
but
with
lack
of
access
to
capital
and
all
these
things.
M
M
We
are
developing
sort
of
an
affordable
housing
trust
fund,
but
for
commercial
businesses
right
we've
got
the
the
the
commercial
property
development
fund,
which
is
a
new
fund
and
folks
are
already
taking
advantage
of
that
along
some
of
the
corridors,
but
it
needs
more
resources
which
I
believe
we're
gonna
be.
M
Can
we're
gonna
continue
that
investment
and
and
and
folks
need
time
in
order
to
build
out
their
their
financing,
and
I
think
that
60
days
is
not
going
to
inherently
fix
that
issue,
but
some
folks
do
need
more
time,
and
the
amount
of
time
that
they're
that
they
have
now
is
is
is
virtually
none,
and
so
this
policy
is
not
meant
to
address
every
single
issue.
M
M
You
know
I
I'd
say
along
in
north
minneapolis,
I
don't
I
don't
know
about
you
all,
but
in
north
minneapolis,
significant,
a
significant
amount
of
the
property
is
not
owned
by
by
folks
of
color
or
folks
living
in
the
neighborhood.
A
significant
of
the
property
is
is,
is
already
sort
of
monopolized
by
just
a
small
handful
of
people
who
sort
of
trade.
You
know
past
properties
among
each
other,
outside
of
the
reach
of
the
average
person
in
north
minneapolis,
and
so,
and
so
I
don't
think
that
this.
M
I
think
that
the
the
the
likelihood
that
this
property
is
going
to
impede
the
small
business
owner
selling
to
the
small
business
owner,
at
least
in
places
like
north
minneapolis,
is
not
likely,
because
we
already
have
such
so
little
local
ownership
already,
which
we're
trying
to
attain,
and
I
think
this
policy
could
help
us
take
one
step
closer
to
to
to
making
that
a
reality.
Thank
you.
J
Thank
you
and
I
think
councilmember
ellison
said
it
pretty
well
I'm
I
do
want
to
thank
everybody
for
the
discussion
around
this,
both
here
at
the
committee,
but
also
conversations
that
I've
had
the
opportunity
to
have
with
people
in
the
last
four
weeks
when
we
have
taken
the
delays
which
were
actually
in
addition
to
the
notice
of
intent.
That
was
publicly
noticed,
and
I
certainly
had
a
lot
of
communication.
J
Just
after
giving
a
notice
of
intent
with
people
who
were
interested
and
then
the
subject
introduction
as
well,
and
then
we
had
another
cycle
where
it
was
referred
to
the
committee
and
then
it
was
referred
to
staff,
and
then
it
came
back
for
the
public
hearing.
So
we've
had
a
lot
of
time
to
have
a
lot
of
discussion
and
I'm
really
grateful
for
everybody
that
gave
him
put
both
within
city
hall
here,
and
I
will
tell
you
that
we
have
had
great
support
from
cpad
and
the
attorney's
office
all
along
the
way.
J
Would
anybody
actually
take
advantage
of
this,
and
I
would
encourage
councilman,
remember
cunningham
to
continue
working
and
looking
at
that,
because,
when
we
reached
out
in
this
side
of
town
and
to
talk
to
some
of
the
community
developers
non-profits
individuals,
they
indicated
that
they
would
and
that
there
was
even
funding
sources
available
to
help
them
make
an
offer
if
they
had
time
to
know
what
was
for
sale
and
where
also
there's
something
very
interesting
about
this
whole
realtors
business.
J
It
feels
like
you
need
to
be
in
a
position
to
know
somebody
who
knows
somebody,
and
I
will
tell
you,
there's
a
certain
demographic
of
all
those
people
who
come
to
the
meetings
in
terms
of
they
look
very
similar,
and
I
guess
I'll
just
leave
it
there,
but
this
will
open
it
up,
make
it
more
transparent
and
I
think
there
are
potentially
going
to
be
some
opportunities,
and
I
also
want
to
just
call
out
the
potential
to
implement.
J
I
think
we've
seen
that
has
not
brought
us
anything
negative
so
far
at
all,
so
I'll
leave
it
there
and
encourage
people
to
vote
for
this.
A
Thank
you,
councilmember.
I
put
myself
in
queue
for
a
couple
reasons
one.
I
set
a
bad
example
of
using
the
chat
to
make
a
comment,
so
I
did
want
to
just
point
out
that
customer
ellison
already
covered
this
point,
but
I
did
want
to
share
that.
We
do
have
a
commercial
property
development
fund
recently
created,
and
that
is
a
great
tool
that
we
could
use
and
build
on
for
some
of
the
things
that
councilmember,
johnson
and
others
were
describing.
A
So
there
is
a
base
tool
to
use
for
some
of
those
enhancements
that
have
been
described.
I'm
really
torn
about
this
item.
I
am
concerned
that
we
didn't
have
final
language
available
for
the
hearing.
I
know
that
we
often
edit
and
amend
items
as
they
come
through
our
process,
but
since
this
has
been
at
council
and
not
a
committee,
I
think
often
these
details
and
this
kind
of
discussion
would
have
normally
happened
at
committee.
You
know
allowing
like
the
council
members
who
served
there
to
really
dig
in
on
these
details.
A
I
you
know,
I
think
I
agree
with
some
of
the
comments
about
how
we
often
take
an
incremental
approach
to
change
and
I'm
not
someone
who
typically
wants
to
delay
things
just
for
tilly's
sake.
I
you
know.
I
will
note
that
some
of
the
comparisons
between
this
and
the
residential
side
I
mean
we
are
very
limited
in
our
tools
on
commercial
anti-displacement
policy.
It's
super
frustrating
and
I
appreciate
the
work.
That's
going
in
to
build
more
tools
to
stop
displacement
in
commercial.
A
So
you
know
I
I
think
I
would
probably
support
sending
this
back
to
committee,
to
let
staff
have
more
time
to
work
on
it.
I'm
hearing
enough
support
from
the
council
members
who
represent
the
areas
that
you
know.
I
also
do
want
to
support
our
colleagues
who
are
dealing
with
so
much
devastation
in
their
words
and
just
a
final
note
just
for
where
I'm
coming
from.
A
As
the
ward
10
council
member,
I
represent
a
part
of
town
that
is
just
outside
of
cultural
districts
that
has
been
facing
immense
displacement
pressure,
especially
impacting
immigrant-owned
businesses
and
residents
of
color,
and
so
I
just
I'm
always.
I
just
want
to
say
that
I
am
always
conscious
about
how
our
policies
to
focus,
resources
and
tools
and
cultural
districts
might
affect
those
businesses
or
residents
that
are
just
on
the
border,
who
aren't
protected
or
or
targeted
for
resources,
and
I
support
the
approach
of
cultural
districts.
A
I
think
it
is
important
to
target
resources
in
geographic
areas.
I
think,
is
a
sound
tool,
but
I
think,
as
we
go
on
and
adding
extra
layers
to
this
tool
of
using
cultural
districts
of
asking
that
question
about
you
know.
How
is
this
impacting
folks
who
are
just
outside
the
area
is
worth
stating
and
asking
and
reflecting
on
so
those
are
my
comments.
I
mostly
wanted
to
clarify
that
or
just
say
out
loud
the
comments
that
I
put
in
the
chat,
because
I'm
always
encouraging
people
not
to
use
the
chat.
That
way.
G
Thank
you,
madam
president.
I
I
too
I'm
pretty
torn
on
this
as
well.
For
me,
it
really
comes
down
to
what
it,
what
is
going
to
be
the
real
burden
on
commercial
property
owners.
I
I
think
my
colleagues
that
had
real
reservations
about
the
process
to
get
to
this
point
I
those
are
certainly
persuasive
with
me.
I
think
there
was
so
much
work
that
had
to
happen
for
advanced
notice.
G
You
know
between
councilmember
goodman
and
when
I
took
over
you
know
the
work
that
had
been
done
by
former
council
member
clinton.
There's
a
reason
we
haven't
seen
problems,
because
we
were
proactive
and
met
with
a
lot
of
stakeholders
and
and
really
laid
down
what
was
going
to
be
kind
of
the
first
policy,
and
that's
also
how
I
view
this.
G
This
is
something
that
I
think
council
member
allison
talked
about
a
while
that
this
is
not
meant
to
be
a
kind
of
cure-all
for
so
many
things,
but
it
is
supposed
to
be
just
just
one
way
that
the
city
can
get
information
looking
over
the
ordinance
just
the
amount
of
information
that
needs
to
go
to
the
city.
I
I
do
not
feel
is
burdensome
and
I
actually
think
would
be
helpful,
just
just
just
as
a
start
there's
a
lot
of
work
that
has
to
happen.
G
I
really
urge
the
authors
to
work
with
city
staff
on
how
that's
being
enforced
and
to
after
you
know,
hearing
the
talk
today
to
really
try
and
make
sure
the
intentions
of
all
council
members
that
have
been
said
to
really
look
out
for
by
park,
business
owners,
bipol
property
owners
and
all
the
people
that
really
want
to
make
sure
that
they're
they're
keeping
kind
of
their
dollars
and
their
work
here
in
the
community.
G
I
will
be
supporting
this,
but
I
do
feel
that
this
still
needs
a
lot
of
work.
I'm
sympathetic
if
one
of
my
colleagues
that
had
concerns
wants
to
bring
this
back
to
committee.
I
would
support
that
as
well.
I
do
question
what
would
change?
I
think
the
limited
limiting
this
to
the
cultural
districts
is
a
good
start.
G
I
don't
know
that
it
gets
to
the
same
intention
of
the
authors,
but
it
is
very
difficult
to
really
say
to
really
say
without
having
it
come
down
to
race,
how
what
we're
specifically
targeting
and
what
outcome
we
want.
So
with
those
limited
tools,
I
think
the
cultural
districts
is
a
good
place
to
start.
B
F
F
To
send
this
back
to
committee
so
that
we
can
provide
opportunity
to
incorporate
some
of
the
discussion
that
we
have
had
today
as
well
as
set
a
public
hearing.
I
I
I
am
certainly
in
support
of
the
intention
of
this
ordinance
and
but
in
in
many
ways
I
agree
with
with
councilmember
goodman
that
it
is
really
a
slow.
J
F
Ordinance,
however,
I
will
say
that
slowing
the
process
down
makes
sense
and
and
does
provide
an
opportunity
for
alternative
or
community-based
property
owners
or
be
property
owners
to
to
make
a
bid
on
these
properties.
So
I'm
not
sure
if
it's
when,
when
is
an
appropriate
time.
Now
that
we
have
a
motion
and
a
proper
second
and
have
had
all
of
this
discussion
to
make
a
motion
to
to
to
bring
this
back
to
the
committee
and
would
welcome
any
advice
from
the
clerk.
A
C
E
Thank
you,
madam
president,
and
I'm
happy
to
support
that.
If
my
colleagues
want
to
go,
do
more
work
on
this,
I
would
have
one
request
when
it
comes
to
a
public
hearing,
because
this
is
affecting
a
very
specific
number
of
properties,
hundreds
of
properties-
and
it's
not
a
city-wide
approach.
I
actually
do
think
it
makes
sense
for
the
city
to
send
out
an
actual
mailed
notice
to
the
property
owners,
letting
them
know
about
the
public
hearing
and
this
proposed
ordinance
so
that
they
are
aware.
E
Obviously
one
of
the
things
I
touched
on
is
that,
if
we're
asking
them
to
hold
commercial
property
for
an
additional
60
days-
or
if
that
is
the
outcome
of
a
past
ordinance
like
this,
it
would
have
a
financial
cost
likely
over
a
thousand
dollars
for
each
property
owner.
So
I
think
the
city's
spending
you
know
a
thousand
dollars
on
sending
out
a
mailer
to
them
makes
sense,
especially
since
we'd
have
to
communicate
anyways
to
them
about
this.
E
Should
this
ordinance
pass,
so
I
think
it's
better
to
be
upfront
with
them
and
mail
out
that
notice
and
let
them
know
that
this
is
something
being
considered,
and
that
way
they
can
have
a
voice
in
the
process
and,
frankly,
be
more
aware
of
the
ordinance
should
it
pass
and
what
their
responsibilities
would
be.
So
I
hope
that's
something
that
can
be
worked
on
with
this.
I
think
that
that
would
be
appropriate,
given
all
the
context
in
this
circumstance.
E
J
Doesn't
I
must
say,
I
missed
a
feature
of
being
able
to
pull
out
of
the
stack
and
pull
in
at
my
discretion,
but
I'm
not
gonna
support
a
postponement.
At
this
point,
I
was
really
I'm
impressed
with
some
of
the
comments
by
councilmember,
cano,
ellison
and
trader.
J
I
know
I
try
to
be
open
to
these
things
a
lot,
but
I
think
that
this
is
a
very
small
step
and
we
should
just
be
willing
to
move
forward
on
this
now,
instead
of
taking
up
all
the
time-
and
I
think
the
the
problem
with
the
mailing
and
all
these
other
things.
J
I
just
think
we
can
take
this
step
and
begin
implementing
it
and
see
how
well
it
works
and
that's
consistent
with
our
comp
plan.
That's
consistent
with
what
we
want
to
do
as
a
city,
and
I
have
to
tell
you
the
timing
could
end
up
being
really
really
important,
depending
on
how
the
economy
goes
and
on
how
many
of
these
properties
we
lose
potentially
to
investors
that
we
don't
even
know
that
are
part
of
some
hidden
group
somewhere
out
there.
D
Well,
as
for
the
hidden
investors
that
are
going
to
buy
up
all
these
properties,
that's
going
to
happen
anyway,
because
this
doesn't
stop
the
sale
of
any
property.
It
only
delays
it.
I
have
mixed
feelings
about
moving
it
back
to
committee.
After
hearing
the
conversation,
so
many
of
you
laid
out
such
good
arguments
for
any
good
litigator
that
I
would
guess,
we'd
be
enjoying
from
putting
this
into
place
anyway.
D
So
it's
really
a
question
of
whether
or
not
you
want
to
fix
some
of
the
things
that
potentially
will
be
brought
forward
in
litigation
when
we
pass
this.
So
if
you
move
it
back
to
committee,
the
city
attorney's
office
can
take
a
look
at
the
conversation
and
some
of
the
comments
that
were
made
here
today
and
determine
whether
or
not
we
can
fix
it
in
order
to
prevent
litigation
going
forward
I'll
note,
the
residential
advance
notice
process
took
three
years
and
there
was
a
massive
amount
of
community
engagement
and
multiple
public
hearings.
D
In
this
particular
case,
not
one
member
of
the
public
in
this
covet
environment
got
to
speak
to
anyone
on
the
committee
or
council
directly
in
any
kind
of
video
face-to-face
environment.
That,
in
and
of
itself,
is
probably
going
to
be
a
problem,
but
you
know
I'm
not
anxious
to
have
it
back
in
committee.
We
have
a
massive
amount
of
work
in
the
meeting
on
monday.
We
have
a
lot
of
items
on
the
17th
and
a
run-up
to
the
december
meeting
as
well.
D
So
I
guess
the
authors
just
need
to
decide
if
they
want
to
pass
it
and
immediately
probably
have
a
lawsuit
or
you
want
to
move
it
forward
because
it
sounds
like
you
have
the
votes
having
having
one
or
two
council
members
having
video
meetings
with
a
whole
bunch
of
people
is
not
the
government
being
able
to
talk
to
all
of
its
elected
officials
and
so
the
place
for
that
public
information
is
in
a
committee
meeting
and
now
that
we're
even
more
distanced
because
of
this
kind
of
video
thing
people
feel
like
we're
just
slipping
stuff
through,
and
I
understand
the
authors
don't
feel
like
they've
slipped
this
through.
D
A
A
Specifically,
seeing
no
more
I'll
just
briefly
comment
that
I'm
a
bit
swayed
by
some
of
the
comments
about
the
shortfalls
of
sending
it
back
to
committee,
I'm
really
conscious
of
cped
staff's
time
right
now,
with
all
that's
being
asked
of
them
for
rebuilding
related
work.
So
not
sure.
Having
heard
from
our
colleagues
the
real
value
of
of
that.
A
F
C
D
F
H
G
B
A
That
item
carrier,
so
it
will
be
referred
back
to
the
biz
committee.
Mr
clerk,
can
you
clarify
the
next
steps
related
to
any
public
hearing
that
would
take
place
for
this
item?
Just
since
we've
had
so
much
discussion
about
the
process.
B
Certainly,
madam
president,
the
matter
would
be
referred
back
to
the
next
regular
meeting
of
the
business
inspections,
housing
and
zoning
committee
because
of
election
day
next
tuesday,
which
would
have
been
the
regular
meeting
for
that
committee.
That
committee's
regular
meeting
has
been
rescheduled
one
day
earlier
to
monday,
so
next
monday
november
2
at
1
30..
At
that
time
it
would
be
before
the
committee
and
the
committee's
discretion
to
set
a
date
for
a
future
public
hearing.
B
If
the
committee
wished
to
do
so
on
the
amended
ordinance
as
it
stands
before
them
at
this
point
or
to
take
other
action
as
appropriate
at
that
point.
So
once
we
get
it
back
to
the
committee,
the
committee
has
several
options
available
to
it
again.
That
committee
meeting
is
removed
from
its
normal
time
has
been
rescheduled
to
monday
next
week
november,
2
at
1
30.
A
B
Madam
president,
if
there
are
no
announcements
from
council
members,
I
wanted
to
share
that
while
we
have
been
in
this
council
meeting,
given
the
court's
decision
with
respect
to
mail
ballots
that
we
discussed
earlier
in
the
meeting,
the
election
staff
have
have
determined
that
they
will
be
increasing
or
expanding
the
number
of
hours
that
they
will
be
operating
our
ballot
drop-off
sites.
So,
given
this
opportunity,
while
we
are
in
session
to
share
both
with
policy
makers
and
those
who
are
tuned
in
normally,
we
would
be
open
tomorrow,
saturday
from
nine
to
four.
B
We
will
instead
be
open
from
8
a.m,
to
6
p.m,
at
all
13
of
our
ballot
locations.
That
increases
the
the
time
that
we
are
available
on
saturday,
and
we
will
increase
also
on
sunday,
where
normally
would
be
open
from
noon
until
5
p.m.
Instead,
we
will
open
at
10
a.m
and
stay
open
till
5
pm
that
adds
five
additional
hours
to
the
hours.
We
were
already
planning
on
being
open
this
weekend
at
our
ballot
drop-off
sites.
So
all
12
of
the
city's
ballot
drop-off
sites
will
be
open.
B
B
They
will
be
open
tomorrow
from
8
a.m,
to
8
p.m,
and
then,
on
tuesday
of
next
week,
which
is
election
day,
I
want
to
reiterate
that
we
will
be
keeping
all
of
our
ballot
drop-off
sites
open.
At
the
same
time,
that
polls
are
open
for
in-person
voting.
The
ballot
drop-off
sites
will
be
open
next
tuesday
from
7
a.m,
to
3
p.m.
So
we
are
expanding
our
weekend
hours.
We
will
be
open
on
election
day,
a
reminder.
B
B
I
just
checked
with
our
sources:
more
than
84
million
voters
have
cast
ballots
across
the
nation
early
and
when
we
look
at
some
states,
texas,
one
of
our
largest
states
and
hawaii-
have
both
already
surpassed
the
total
number
of
ballots
that
were
passed
in
the
2016
presidential
election
and
we
still
have
four
days
left
before
election
day.
So
please
get
your
ballots
back
to
us.
Thank
you.
F
Thank
you,
madam
president,
and
I
was
trying
to
get
my
announcement
in
prior
to
the
clerk's
announcement,
but
really
just
wanted
to
reiterate
everything.
The
clerk
has
just
announced
and
encouraged
our
faith
community
to
ensure
that
they
are
encouraging
their
parishioners
and
congregants
and
members
at
synagogues
and
mosques
and
basilicas
to
to
get
out
and
early
vote
on
sunday.
F
If
you
have
ballots
that
you
have
had
mailed
to
you
to
to
return
on
via
mail.
Please
drop
those
off
at
these
now
that
we
know
that
there
have
been
expanded
hours
to
these
drop-off
locations.
F
F
You
can
still
register
at
the
polls
on
tuesday,
and
I
I
just
want
to
reiterate
my
own
commitment
to
ensuring
that
we
have
a
safe
and
valid
election
process
and
that
I
will
do
everything
in
my
power
as
an
elected
official
as
an
elected
representative,
to
ensure
that
every
vote
that
is
cast
is
counted
and
that
there
is
safety
in
the
process
of
voting
both
physically
and
as
well
as
for
those
votes.
A
Thank
you,
council.
Vice
president,
I
don't
know
how
others
are
feeling
heading
into
next
week,
but
I
have
a
sense
of
of
hope,
but
also
some
fear
and
nervousness
about
how
things
will
go.
We
saw
some
comments
from
state
leaders
about
how
this
election
will
feel
different
this
year
with
more
absentee
voting.
A
A
But
I
know
that
if
we
are
facing
anything
else
that
this
group
of
people
is
still
committed
to
communicating
with
each
other
to
supporting
each
other
and
our
communities
and
through
this
time,
especially
during
unrest,
council
members
have
become
a
go-to
for
our
communities
to
reach
out
in
crisis,
and
I
know
it's
taken
a
toll
on
us
and
our
staff.
A
We're
not
set
up
to
be
a
crisis
hotline,
24,
7,
24
hours,
seven
days
a
week,
crisis
response
team,
but
in
some
ways
we
have
become
that-
and
I
know
all
of
us
are
are
here
to
do
that
for
our
community
for
our
neighbors,
who
we
love
and
who
we
stepped
up
to
serve.
So
I
just
want
to
end
with
my
gratitude
to
each
of
you
for
all
that
you're
doing
in
your
communities
with
your
neighbors
and
again
very
hopeful
that
that
we
will
see
a
peaceful
time
in
the
weeks
ahead.
A
You
know
that
we
might
face,
and-
and
I
know
that
each
of
you
will
will
be
there
for
your
communities,
no
matter
what
happens
so
just
thank
you
anything
further.
A
Unusual
halloween
weekend,
I
appreciate
all
of
you.
We
are.
