From YouTube: February 12, 2020 Committee of the Whole
Description
Minneapolis Committee of the Whole Meeting
https://lims.minneapolismn.gov
A
Good
afternoon
I'm
going
to
call
to
order
this
regular
meeting
of
the
committee
of
the
whole
for
Wednesday
February
12
2020.
My
name
is
Andrea
Jenkins
and
I'm.
The
chair
of
this
committee
with
me
at
the
diets
today,
our
council
members,
Palmisano
Johnson,
Ellison,
Schrader,
councilmember,
Cano
and
Reich
Fletcher
and
Cunningham.
Let
the
record
reflect
that
we
do
have
a
quorum
of
the
committee
today
and
colleagues.
A
B
A
B
First
I
want
to
say
thank
you
for
having
us
here.
The
neighborhoods
2020
work
that
we're
gonna
be
discussing
today
actually
resides
in
the
peace
committee.
We
normally
would
be
presenting
it
there,
but
we
received
an
invitation
to
present
it
here
at
the
committee
of
the
whole,
because
we
understand
all
of
the
council.
Members
are
interested
in
hearing
having
an
opportunity
here.
The
presentation
and
ask
questions.
So
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
today
to
do
that.
B
I'm
going
to
set
a
little
bit
of
context
for
today's
presentation
before
I
introduce
see
Terrence
Anderson
from
cura
to
actually
do
the
presentation
of
the
racial
equity
analysis.
As
a
reminder,
in
May
of
2019,
the
City
Council
adapted
the
neighborhoods
22
framework
that
our
department
brought
forth,
along
with
adopting
the
framework
council
directed
the
city
coordinators
office
to
collaborate
with
a
consultant
on
the
next
phase
of
that
work,
which
included
conducting
a
racial
equity
analysis,
as
well
as
bringing
forth
program
guidelines.
The
city
coordinator,
selected
Keira
as
part
of
this
final
process,.
B
B
So
we'll
ask
you
to
focus
on
those
questions
today
see
Terrence
Anderson
who's,
the
director
of
University
of
Minnesota's
Center
for
Urban
and
Regional
Affairs
will
be
presenting
that
information
before
I
turn
it
over
to
him.
I
do
want
to
just
make
sure
that
you
all
know
the
timeline
moving
forward.
So
after
today's
presentation
we
will
continue
to
meet
with
the
steering
committee,
which
is
made
up
of
different
representatives
of
the
city
overseeing
this
work.
B
Our
hope
is
to
have
program
guidelines
that
will
be
released
publicly
February
24th
that
will
initiate
a
45-day
public
comment
period
that
will
close
April
10th.
My
apologies
for
the
mistake
in
the
PowerPoint,
it's
April
10th.
It
will
close,
after
which
we
will
make
any
revisions
that
are
necessary,
and
then
we
will
be
coming
back,
hopefully
to
the
May
4th
peace
committee,
presenting
the
proposed
program
guidelines
moving
forward
and
that
will
include
the
guidelines,
the
goals
and
outcomes,
as
well
as
a
logic
model
and
the
rest
of
the
deliverables
and
the
staff
directive.
A
C
You
stand
up
straight
kind
of
like
this.
Is
it
well?
Thank
you
very
much
for
having
me
here
today
to
talk
about
Kiros
racial
equity
analysis,
neighborhood
association,
neighborhoods,
2020,
work
very
happy
to
do
this.
Work
we've
been
happy
to
partner
with
NCR
and
doing
this
work.
We've
been
great
partners
as
well
as
number
of
folks
around
the
city
who
have
helped
fill
in
going
through
his
work,
but
without
further
ado,
we'll
just
sort
of
jump
into
it.
So
the
first
thing
I
want
to
go
through
is
quarter.
C
C
There's
been
a
lot
of
literature
written
about
an
RPE
since
about
1990
I
think
was
the
first
report,
and
so
we
did
a
deep
dive
into
each
of
these
reports
in
the
data
that
they
had
and
we're
presenting
that
as
part
of
this
work
as
well,
we
also
did
an
analysis
of
NR
p12,
as
well
as
CPP
funding
allocations.
We
also
did
an
analysis
of
representation
across
the
city.
We
also
did
looked
at
a
draft
of
ell
formula
for
the
neighborhoods
2020
program.
C
Evaluation
allocation:
it's
more
use
that,
for
the
purposes
of
analysis
about
what
would
a
racial
equity
formula,
look
like
in
the
context
of
doing
neighborhoods,
2020
work.
We
interviewed
folks
from
around
the
city,
both
including
staff,
folks
and
neighborhood
associations,
folks
and
not
neighborhood
associations,
and
so
really
all
of
those
things
sort
of
are
part
of
this.
Of
this
racial
equity
analysis.
C
I
encourage
folks
to
ask
as
critical
questions
as
you
possibly
can
I
think
that's
an
absolute
good
thing,
knowing
that
this
is
a
an
extremely
difficult
subject,
as
well
as
knowing
that
you
know
NRP
en
rp2
won
lots
of
awards
around
the
city,
because
so
I
can
sort
of
understand
sort
of
feeling
that
some
of
this
might
be
hard.
But
I
encourage
folks
to
ask
as
many
critical
question
as
you
possibly
can
excuse.
A
Me
Anderson
and
while
I
encourage
it,
the
answer
to
ask
really
critical
questions.
I
do
want
to
just
acknowledge
that
we
have
another
committee
meeting
directly
after
this
meeting
the
IGR
committee,
and
then
this
room
will
be
needed
for
Charter
Commission
board
of
the
et
Committee
meeting
directly
following
that.
So
if
we
can
keep
our
comments
as
expeditiously
as
we
possibly
can,
it
would
be
very
much
appreciated
all.
C
Right
sounds
great,
so
the
first
thing
to
really
go
through
I
first
want
to
sort
of
submit
what
Kira's
racial
equity
framework
is.
I
suspect
about
a
lot
of
conversations
about
racial
equity.
If
I
was
to
ask
you
to
eat,
write
each
write
down
your
definition
of
racial
equity,
you
might
get
a
bunch
of
different
responses
in
the
room,
so
we
want
us
to
submit
what
we
sort
of
look
at
racial
equity.
What
is
the
lens
that
we
look
through
racial
equity?
We
believe
that
racial
equity
is
three
parts.
C
It's
contextualized,
it's
community
centered
and
it's
reparative
contextualized
means
that
we
understand
the
history
of
what
happened
in
order
to
really
understand
the
direction
that
we
need
to
go
forward.
Sometimes
I
like
to
make
the
joke.
If
you
were
to
get
to
my
house
in
North
Minneapolis
and
you
put
it
in
Google
Maps
and
you
said:
hey,
it
mean
to
see
Terrance
his
house
on
33rd
and
Morgan
in
North
Minneapolis,
and
you
put
in
you,
said
to
Google
and
Google
said
well.
Where
are
you
coming
from,
and
you
said?
Oh
that
doesn't
really
matter.
C
Google
would
say,
like
I,
can't
really
help
you
with
that.
So
similarly,
in
racial
equity,
we
need
to
really
need
to
understand
the
history
of
what
happened
in
order
in
order
to
understand
the
direction
that
we
need
to
move
forward
going
forward.
Community
centered
means
that
the
folks
that
were
most
negatively
impacted
in
history
are
front
and
center
of
the
imagination
and
co-creation
of
the
work
going
forward
and
so
I
think
oftentimes
in
this
community,
knowing
sort
of
our
racial
construct.
Today.
C
That
means
black
indigenous
and
other
people
of
color,
as
well
as
renters,
in
particular,
I
mean
other
historically
marginalized.
Folks
really
need
to
be
at
the
front
and
center
of
the
work
and
then
three
its
reparative,
meaning
that
we
are
trying
to
find
solutions
that
are
equal
and
impact
of
what
caused
the
inequities
in
the
first
place.
So
sometimes
like
the
joke,
we
don't
exchange
if
I
your
car
I,
let
your
car
and
I
threw
it
into
the
Mississippi
River
one.
C
That's
an
EPA
violation
right,
but
two
you'd
be
really
mad
about
that,
and
if
I
came
back
a
number
of
years
later
and
said,
here's
a
pair
of
shoes
I'm
really
sorry
for
what
I
did.
You
would
say:
that's
not
good
enough
right.
We
want
to
replace
a
car
for
a
car
or
maybe
really
good
public
transportation,
or
something
like
that.
So
really
I
just
wanted
to
set
that
framing,
which
of
course,
we
can
dip
into
more,
but
really
we're.
Looking
at
racial
equity
has
worked
at
as
contextualized
community
centered
and
as
reparative.
C
This
slide
shows
where
all
the
funding
went
since
1990
so
from
1990
to
2009
teen,
the
darker,
the
color,
the
more
money
that
folks
got
in
the
light
of
the
color
of
less
money
that
folks
got
so
I'm,
not
gonna,
really
get
into
the
wide
history
of
NRP.
I.
Think
folks,
at
this
table
know
the
wide
history
of
NRP
I'm,
certainly
not
probably
the
greatest
historian
of
the
project
of
the
program,
but
I've
seen
NRP
drill
of
this
funding
more
so
than
CPP.
C
Did
that
give
us
280
million
dollars
over
the
course
of
1993
to
2009
I
think
it
was
of
course
CPP's
been
around
since
2010.
That's
been
4.1
million
dollars
a
year
where,
for
most
of
the
years
of
NRP,
owes
20
million
dollars
a
year.
So
what
you
see
up
there
is
largely
driven
by
the
allocations
of
the
NRP
program.
Folks
could
use
that
money
to
do
a
wide
range
of
things
right.
C
I
think
folks
can
talk
about
all
the
good
things.
We're
really
gonna
Center
on,
where
was
from
a
racial
equity
perspective,
benefit
or
harm.
So
that's
one
really
big
thing
so
on
representation,
I,
don't
think
I'm
going
to
spend
too
much
time
on
this,
but
I
think
it's
very
quite
clear.
Nearly
University,
renters,
universally
renters
and
black
indigenous
and
people
of
color
are
underrepresented
on
the
boards
of
neighborhood
associations.
C
Of
course,
there
are
some
exceptions,
but
as
a
system,
renters
black
indigenous
and
people
of
color
are
underrepresented
across
the
city,
I
think
one
of
the
things
that
we
found
in
history,
actually,
my
boss
Akira,
did
one
of
the
earliest
studies
of
NRP
in
1994
sort
of
talks
about
this
notion
that
entropy
really
drove
the
representation
on
a
lot
of
neighborhood
associations.
So,
at
a
time
before,
NRP
there
was
sort
of
this
more
diverse
coalition's
of
people,
but
then
once
of
course,
at
the
time
it
was
400
million
dollars
over
20
years.
C
This
money
was
going
to
be
spent
that
motivated
in
particular
white
homeowners
population,
including
landlords
and
business
owners,
to
really
come
on
to
these
boards
and
really
make
sure
that
their
interests
were
really
being
met,
and
so
I
think
I
think
that's
a
very
important
point
to
show
the
role
of
which
investment
might
motivate
changes,
even
if
the
program
was
constructed
in
a
more
diverse
fashion.
It
sort
of
changed
over
time.
C
I
think
that
maps
onto
today,
that's
mainly
who
is
in
neighborhood
association
boards
to
this
day
and
here's
what
in
McPherson
for
most
this
researchers
commented
first
and
foremost
NRP
was
conceived,
if
not
explicitly
than
implicitly
as
a
program
for
homeowners,
so
I
think
as
something
talked
to
some
of
y'all
as
well
as
talk
to
other
folks
in
the
community.
This
was
at
a
time
in
which
homeowners
were
fleeing
to
the
suburbs.
C
Sometimes
we
call
that
white
flight
today,
as
well
as
the
housing
market
was
unstable,
and
so
NRP
was
a
mass
investment
into
the
city
to
stabilize
the
housing
market,
in
particular
the
homeownership
market.
I,
don't
think
I
would
disagree
with
you
say,
like
did.
Nrp
do
I
think
there's
a
lot
of
evidence
to
say
that
NRP
had
a
huge
huge
hand
in
making
that
happen
right.
C
We
have
a
one
of
the
highest
home
ownership
rates
of
viddy
city
across
the
country,
but
I
think
we
also
know
at
the
same
time
that
that
there's
the
widest
gap
between
black
indigenous
and
people
of
color,
owning
homes
and
white
residents,
right
and
so
I
think.
Similarly,
in
this
program
lab,
we
can
enjoy
a
very
good
thing:
a
stable
housing
market.
It's
not
stable
for
all
of
our
members
in
our
community.
C
Similarly,
not
all
members
of
our
community
were
part
of
the
process
for
an
RP
one
and
two
I
think
it
might
continues
today
in
neighborhood
associations
as
well.
In
some
cases,
some
researchers
found
that
NRP
plans
might
be
sardonically
described
as
an
outright
attack
on
renters.
So
we
can
name
like
in
very
specific
cases
where
neighborhood
association
boards
were
sort
of
formalized
around
developing
low-income
housing
buildings.
C
I'm
sorry
did
you
ever.
Oh
I
thought
you
were
raising
your
hand,
I
think
we
know
from
research.
We
estimate
that
anywhere
between
12
and
1,400
rental
units
were
created
over
the
course
of
NRP.
It's
and
there's
probably
been
about
6,000
to
7,000
loans,
to
single-family
housing
over
the
same
Forster
project,
so
about
a
1
to
5
1
to
6
ratio
over
the
course
of
the
program
as
a
whole.
Excuse.
A
C
So
getting
into
the
beneficiaries
of
the
program
for
one
to
say
that
there's
not
a
lot
of
data
in
history
firsthand
that
we
can
analyze
that
Maps
outcomes
to
race.
There's
really
two
main
data
sets
that
we
can
consider
that
one
was
Cee,
which
was
one
of
the
managers
for
this
for
the
NRP
housing
program
funds.
C
So
we
analyzed
that
that
covers
neighborhoods
that
are
generally
across
the
city
I'm
pretty
representative
across
each
of
your
wards,
as
well
as
the
NHS,
which
is
another
manager
that
mainly
focus
in
on
the
Northside
and
so
I'm
going
to
talk
about
both
of
those.
But
then
we
also
considered
other
data
in
our
literature
review.
What
other
research
researchers
were
saying
so
the
first?
C
What
you
have
on
your
screen
right
now
is
the
Cee
Program
data
from
January
1st
2013
to
about
October
of
2019
so
just
last
year,
and
this
this
slide
shows
all
the
applicants
to
that
particular
program.
And
so
you
can
see
the
77
in
applicant
1
in
applicant
2.
You
can
basically
read
like
a
person
who
was
the
lead
applicant
to
that
particular
loan
and
then
applicant
to
maybe
a
spouse
or
a
partner
that
they're
applying
with
67%
of
folks
that
applied
in
applicant
1
were
wide
17%
for
black
folk.
C
So
you
can
kind
of
read
on
down
what
it
is,
but
I
think
what
really?
What
gets
interesting
is
when
you
look
at
who
was
funded
in
that
particular
program.
So
right
it
goes
from
67%
white
applicants
to
77
percent
white
folks
who
were
funded
and
you
can
see
on
down
the
list
and
as
a
reminder
today
in
the
city
of
Minneapolis,
about
63%
of
people
of
in
the
city,
residents
are
white.
C
Folks,
you
can
see
this
over
representation,
there's
disproportionality
towards
white
residents,
in
particular
in
the
seee
program,
going
next
to
the
NHS
data,
which
there's
another
editorial.
That
talks
a
lot
about
this,
whether
we
analyze
it
or
not.
So,
just
to
show
it
to
you
in
front
this
North
Side
home
services,
which
covers
the
Jordan
Harrison
near
North,
Willard,
hey,
there's,
also
the
Cleveland
neighborhood,
which
it
looks
somewhat
I
mean
if
you
read
the
full
report,
is
just
didn't
fit
into
the
slide
neatly.
You
can
see
across
the
different
neighborhoods
what
that
looked
like.
C
So,
of
course
it
looks
better
for
black
folks,
of
course,
who
are
primarily
concentrated
on
the
North
Side
in
the
city
of
Minneapolis.
But
if
you
sort
of
kind
of
go
back
and
forth
across
the
different
different
demographics
and
we're
mapping
from
the
year
1993
to
the
year
2003
and
we're
using
2000
census
data
to
look
at
the
demographics
of
those
particular
neighborhoods,
you'll
also
see
the
over-representation
or
just
fortunately,
funding
white
folks
in
this
program.
Excuse.
D
D
F
G
D
F
D
C
Yes,
I
think
I'm,
not
sure.
If
you're
making
a
point
there
is
all
of
the
housing
program,
funds
come
from
NRP,
none
of
them
come
from
CPP,
so
I'm
just
make
sure
I'm
pricing
what
you're
asking,
but
the
last
question
I
think
that's
exactly
why
we
disaggregated
the
NHS
data
into
the
particular
neighborhoods
based
off
the
demographics
of
those
particular
neighborhoods,
so
say
for
an
example
in
the
Harrison
neighborhood,
which
was
to
use
a
better
example
in
the
near
North
neighborhood,
which
gave
57%
of
their
loans
to
african-americans
and
they're
58
percent
of
the
population.
C
They
gave
33
percent
of
the
loans
to
white
folks
who
are
15
percent
of
the
population.
I
also
think
that
it's
I
think
we
often
make
these
conversations
about
like
black
folks
and
white
folks.
It's
worth
always
mentioning
a
city
who
those
other
racial
categories
for
Hispanic,
folks,
Hispanic
or
Latino
folks,
as
well
as
Asian
folks
and
Native
American
folks,
who
are
systematically
area
under
represented
in
the
data
that
we
have
to
analyze.
C
So
I,
think
that
know
we
didn't
cherry-pick
because
we
asked
for
all
of
the
data
from
the
city
of
Minneapolis
that
tied
racial
outcomes
to
race
and
that's
what
we
got
and
so
there's
literally
no
data.
That's
in
our
report
that
the
city
has
that
is
not
in
our
report
and
as
well
as
I
think
that
the
important
point
is
about
disaggregating
on
the
basis
of
demographics.
So
what
I'm
talking
about
is
the
disproportionality
across
for
white
folks
and
in
the
data
that
we
have
and
I
think
that's
important.
A
D
A
C
D
C
F
H
D
H
I
D
At
a
very
small
set
of
data
after
we
moved
into
CCP
and
then
to
look
at
one
organization,
Center
for
the
energy
environment
and
say
well,
here's
when
we
started
collecting
it
and
see
it.
Sucks
is
kind
of
like
to
ignore
everything
that
happened
during
the
NRP
era.
And
if
you
talk
to
the
neighborhood
folks
who
are
less
than
thrilled
with
this
report
as
I'm
I'm,
when
you
have
a
respectful,
when
we
all
not
you
I,
don't
mean
notes.
D
F
J
D
K
F
F
F
F
D
F
H
C
Well,
so
I
guess
I
would
just
offer
this.
Let's
consider
what
researchers
have
been
finding
for
the
past
30
years,
so
not
just
what
we've
researched
or
what
we've
analyzed
in
the
data
that's
available
for
us,
but
also
what
this
stack
of
research
has
said
for
the
past
30
years.
So
for
an
example,
one
analysis
that
studied
all
of
the
housing
and
loan
and
grant
programs
from
1993
to
2000
estimates
that
88
percent
of
all
the
recipients
were
white.
At
a
time
with
the
city,
Minneapolis
was
78
percent
population.
C
In
the
majority
of
those
neighborhoods
that
were
administered
by
Cee
grants,
the
recipients
had
incomes
greater
than
the
neighborhoods
median
income
at
times
double
and
triple
helping
the
poorest
residents
was
simply
not
what
happened
in
the
program's.
What
another
research
found
I
can
kind
of
go
on
and
on
about
stories
of
other
researchers
having
first-hand
data
studying
in
particularly
the
time
period
that
you're
most
interested
in
the
NRP
period
between
1993
and
2001.
C
All
right,
you
know
the
ana
period
as
a
whole.
That
I
think
our
findings
are
very
consistent.
So
I
think
at
this
point
the
burden
of
saying
that
this
was
not
the
case
would
be
on
the
phone
for
other
people
to
sort
of
bring
their
own
set
of
data.
That
would
challenge
not
just
this
study
but
studies
for
the
past
30
years.
D
I
had
mentioned
to
the
chair
earlier,
they
give
it
Robert
Thompson
has
done
an
analysis.
I'm
gonna
ask
that
we
take
up
that
analysis
in
committee
of
the
whole
in
the
next
cycle,
so
that
we
can
hear
another
set
of
data,
but,
to
be
honest,
I'm
not
really
interested
in
fighting
old
fights
and
I
know
you're,
not
either.
What
I'm
interested
in
is
putting
forward
an
equitable
program
going
forward
sure.
F
C
E
D
Is
the
part
that
I
don't
think
that
your
study
really
took
into
effect
that
we
tell
neighborhoods?
Do
the
community
engagement
for
create
these
events
for
this
review?
These
land
use
applications
communicate
about
new
bus
lanes.
We're
asking
them
to
do
all
this
stuff
and
we're
not
really
taking
into
account
that
we
should
probably
compensate
them
in
some
way
for
that
work
that
they're
doing
sure.
F
D
When
they
collaborate
and
rise
to
a
higher
level
and
meet
larger
city
goals
like
equity,
then
there
should
be
grants
available
to
partner
and
to
work
together
and
I.
Think
that's
I!
Think
I
can
summarize
that's
almost
what
everyone
on
the
council
thinks
that
we
want
to
have
everything
we
do
happen
with
a
racial
equity
lens,
but
we
don't
want
to
tell
the
people
who
have
work
for
free
in
neighborhoods
for,
however
many
years
you
guys
suck
you
didn't,
do
a
good
job.
You've
created
the
structural
inequality
in
the
city.
D
A
L
You,
madam
yeah
I'm
sure
so
I
appreciate
this
this.
This
information
I
really
do
value
getting
information
from
professionals
and
experts
who
have
had
time
to
look
at
this
for
more
than
you
know
the
couple
of
hours
or
I.
Don't
know
how
long
we'll
be
talking
about
this
today,
but
thank
you
for
bringing
this
forward
because
you
know
I've
I've
heard
a
lot
of
verbal
history
about
this
program
and
all
of
it
relates
to
exactly
what
you're
saying
right
now
and.
F
L
It's
it's
sort
of
interesting
to
me
that
what
I
would
sometimes
dismiss,
as
maybe
like
a
one-sided
story
or
a
rumor
I'm
kind
of
seeing
now,
with
with
numbers
and
statistics
and
and
I'm
trying
to
sort
of
weave
the
story
together
here.
I
wanted
to
offer
some
I
wanted
to
offer
my
colleagues
and
the
public
a
tool
here
that
I
picked
up
during
my
organizing
days,
working
with
Sal
Miranda
and
the
organizing
apprenticeship
project
and
Beth
Newkirk
and
Julia
Freeman,
which
is
relates
to
racial
equity
and
and
policies,
and
it's
it's.
L
The
whole
point
is
about
not
looking
at
people's
intent.
Like
did
you
mean
to
be
racist?
Did
you
mean
to
be
mean
to
me
but
more
about
what
is
the
outcome?
What
is
the
practical,
tangible
outcome
that
the
set
of
decisions
that
were
put
in
place
give
us,
and
so
I
want
to
encourage
us
to
put
our
feelings
on
hold
and
not
put
on
the
dress,
that's
being
displayed
at
the
at
the
front
of
the
room,
I'm
just
saying
the
Spanish.
L
That
I
could
probably
can't
translate
exactly
here,
but
you
we're
not
we're
not
saying
here.
Try
this
on
it's
for
you,
we're
saying
here's
the
information,
let's
analyze,
that
let's
dig
into
it,
and
so
don't
don't
get
emotionally
wedded
to
this
information,
but
really
look
at
the
the
outcomes
and
that
the
tangible
information
that's
being
presented
to
us
and
then
lastly,
I,
do
want
to
make
a
note
about
I'm
interested
as
we
continue
this
conversation
to
look
at
the
differences
between
wealth
building
initiatives
which
would
be
considered
home.
L
A
home
ownership
initiative
versus
some
of
the
the
do-gooder
work
and
some
neighborhoods
will
will
claim
and
saying.
Well,
we
created
so
much
affordable,
housing,
neighborhood
and
and
look
at
all
the
other
rental
units
that
we
made
available
for
folks.
Those
are
important,
but
I
want
to
be
clear
that
that
renting
into
perpetuity
for
communities
of
color
is
a
wealth
extraction
initiative.
L
The
whole
point
here
is
that
I
do
think
some
of
the
work
that
this
money
has
done
has
been
to
secure,
affordable
housing
opportunities
under
a
rental
paradigm
like
a
renters
paradigm,
but
I'm
curious
to
see
how
much
of
that
staying
power
and
wealth,
building
and
equity
building
initiatives
have
transferred
on
to
communities
of
color
through
homeownership,
because
I
think
that
that's
a
piece
that
we're
missing
right
now
in
our
Malou
of
strategies
when
when
it
comes
to
stabilizing
communities.
So
thank
you.
It
was
more
comments
than
question.
K
C
K
K
So
I
just
want
to
be
able
to
like
remind
us
that
that
is
the
level
of
expertise
that
we
have
here.
Helping
us
with
this
analysis.
Additionally,
I
want
to
just
say
that
what
we
have
the
information
we
have
here
in
front
of
us
I
do
not
read
it
as
a
moral
judgment.
I
do
not
see
this
and
I
do
not
hear
or
read
into
the
data
saying
you
are
bad
people
what
we
have
asked.
So
it's
not
a
moral
judgment
of
NRP
or
CPP.
K
What
we
have
asked
as
a
safe
council
is
for
this
consultant
to
do
a
racial
equity
analysis
to
be
able
to
help
us
decide
and
have
an
understanding
of
what
does
racial
equity
look
like
in
the
context
of
neighborhood
associations
and
so
we're,
starting
with
funding
and
how
we're
money
went
and
who
are
the
beneficiaries.
This
is
not
a
moral
judgment
of
that
this
year.
K
So
that
is
why
we
want
to
have
this
conversation
here
today.
You
don't
have
to
respond.
I
just
wanted
to
create
that
space,
so
that
folks,
right
folks,
we
have
a
major
research
institution.
This
is
not
a
moral
judgment,
it's
data
and
then
being
able
to
get
guidance
from
the
council
about
what
we
would
like
for
our
staff
and
consultants
to
do
next.
Yeah.
C
It
wouldn't
be
surprising
that
a
majority
that
fund
went
to
white
folks,
any
more
than
it
would
surprise
you
that
if
you
said
we're
focusing
on
single-family
home
improvement
plans,
we
did
more
for
single-family
home
improvement
houses
than
rental
housing
right.
It
should
meet
both
of
those.
It
was
the
construction
of
the
program
from
this
beginning
that
led
to
results
like
this,
like
we
still
have
the
widest
gap
between
white
homeowners,
black
and
brown
homeowners
in
the
city
of
Annapolis
today.
C
D
D
M
D
That
money
did
not
go
to
help
single-family
home
owners,
so
I
would
just
love
to
hear
you
say:
48
percent
of
the
money
went
to
all
sorts
of
other
things,
including
racial
equity
initiatives
and
parks
and
schools,
and
all
of
these
other
things.
In
fact,
we
used
to
call
an
RP
new
programming
for
parks
and
new
revenue
for
parks,
because
so
much
of
the
money
actually
went
to
park
development,
but
I
mean
it
wasn't
just
about
housing.
D
It
was
awesome
and
they
didn't
do
a
good
enough
job
actually
on
housing
and
they
were
told
in
the
second
half
of
it.
They
had
to
do
more
on
housing,
so
I'm,
not
exactly
cheerleading
the
program
I'm
just
saying
that
48%
of
the
money
went
to
other
things
that
had
nothing
to
do
with
housing,
and
there
were
plenty
of
neighborhoods
with
very
few
homeowners
and
lots
of
renters
and
they
weren't
putting
stainless
steel
kitchens
in
condos
at
Lauren
green.
They
were.
C
Once
again,
as
we
talked
about
that,
we
particularly
focused
on
the
housing
aspect
of
these
things
and
I
said
the
very
beginning
that
yes,
52
and
a
half
percent
with
the
housing
and
the
other
50
48,
whatever
percent
went
to
other
things
once
again
by
and
large,
attaching
outcomes
to
race
is
very
hard
from
what
we
actually
have
data
for
so
I.
Think
folks
can,
of
course,
talk
about
good
examples.
I
readily
acknowledge
that
there's
a
lot
of
really
good
examples.
When
my
favorite
being
mercado
central
was
built
partially
with
NRP
money.
C
Some
folks
have
talked
about
money,
building,
sabath,
aney
and
other
great
places.
Yes,
great
money
went
to
a
lot
of
great
places
so
again,
I
focusing
less
in
this
report
on
the
good
things,
because
I
think
we
have
a
lot
of
conversation
about
that.
We
are
asked
to
do
a
racial
equity
analysis
in
particular.
So
yes,
I'm,
focusing
on
one
aspect
of
it,
which
I
think
is
a
large
aspect
of
it,
but
I'm
just
following
the
directive.
What
the
council
was
how
I
interpret
the
council
last
asked
us
to
do.
Thank.
N
N
You,
madam
chair
I,
just
wanted
to
sort
of
I
think
we're
having
a
really
necessary
the
beginning
of
a
really
necessary
conversation,
but
I
also
just
want
to
hear
what
the
research
team
found
with
the
contract
that
we
hired
them
to
do
through
NCR,
so
I'm,
hoping
that
maybe
some
of
the
questions,
and
especially
the
cop
you
know,
the
commentary
and
debate
could
be
held
till
the
end.
As
you
mentioned,
we
have
two
more
meetings
today
and
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we
have
plenty
of
time
for
this
debate
and
discussion.
N
C
F
N
C
I
think
there's
at
least
one
last
major
point
as
part
of
this
to
make
this
just
shows
you
that
I'm
just
wanting
to
show
you
the
CPP
allocation
formula
versus
pure
derived
racial
equity
formula.
For
the
purposes
of
analysis
we
see
on
your
slide
today
is
what
the
today's
formula
is.
So
you
can
see
CPP's
funding,
formula,
20%
weight
on
population
20%,
weight
on
diversity,
ESL,
so
on
and
so
forth.
If
you're
a
math
nerd,
you
can
see
on
the
right
in
mathematical
formula.
C
This
is
the
map
that
you
would
get
so
the
darker,
the
color,
the
more
money
that
particular
neighborhood
would
get
and
then
Kirra
hat
used
a
formula
for
analysis
purpose.
What
would
a
racial
equity
analysis?
Our
formula
look
like,
and
so
we
focused
on
three
populations:
black
indigenous
people
of
color,
prospered
and
households.
C
So
those
are
people
who
are
spending
more
than
30%
of
their
income
on
either
their
rent
or
their
mortgage,
with
a
more
weight
towards
folks
who
are
renters
and
then
those
who
are
experiencing
gentrification
and
displacement,
utilizing
Kyra's,
gentrification
and
displacement
research
from
the
past
couple
of
years.
So
you
can
more
or
less
see
what
we
would
say.
These
are
the
popular
in
need.
Of
course,
we
can
talk
about
a
lot
of
different
other
categories
that
we
can
add
into
it.
C
What
you
would
start
to
see
is
just
a
lot
of
high
association
for
what's
already
there
and
you
start
double
counting
folks.
We
can
talk
about
that
more
too,
but
more
or
less.
If
this
is
your
formula
and
it
was
a
racial
equity
formula,
it
would
look
closer
to
this,
so
the
dark
once
again,
the
darker,
the
color,
the
more
money
folks,
would
get
I
think
a
better
way
to
actually
analyze.
This
is
on
a
per
capita
basis.
So
what
is
our
spending
on
top
of
each
residence
head
across
the
city?
So
in
CPP?
C
One
of
the
points
like
to
make
about
this-
you
more
or
less
in
in
a
quality
based
paradigm
today
and
so
more
or
less
money
is
spread
evenly
across
the
city
say
for
a
couple
of
weird
things
like
in
Prospect
Park
in
Northeast,
which
has
less
than
a
thousand
people
that
live
there,
$25,000
front
page
will
see
it
go
up
similar
in
other
parts
of
the
neighborhood
and
and
then,
if
you
had
the
per
capita
funding
for
the
Cure
developed
formula.
This
is
what
you
would
get
so
very
much
a
different
distribution
across
the
city.
C
Of
course,
you
want
to
see
stratification
when
you're
doing
racial
equity,
remembering
sort
of
those
sort
of
elementary
artwork
that
you
might
see
about
racial
equity.
The
person
who
needs
the
most
to
see
over
the
fence
to
see
the
ball
game
or
whatever
gets
the
most
right.
So
you
want
to
see
some
level
of
stratification
if
you're
doing
racial
equity,
and
so
what
I
argue?
That's
what
you
see
here
versus
the
CPP
funding
formula,
which
is
more
based
in
equality.
C
Last
thing
we
did
an
analysis,
just
an
analysis
of
what
would
happen
with
the
$25,000
funding
base
or
what
sort
of
the
implication
of
that
from
a
racial
equity
perspective
and
the
last
slide
more
or
less
just
shows.
You
see
the
no
base
funding
on
the
Left
$10,000
base,
funding
in
the
middle
and
then
a
$25,000
base
funding
and
the
right
you
can
sort
it.
C
You
can
see
the
equity
sort
of
a
road
across
the
system,
the
higher
you
raise
the
base
funding
so
from
an
equity
perspective,
the
higher
the
base
funding,
the
lower
youth,
see
equity,
the
lower
the
base
funding,
the
more
that
you
see,
equity
via
the
allocation.
Of
course,
knowing
that
equity
isn't
just
allocation,
it's
also
the
work
that
they
do.
So
it's
only
at
least
at
most
half
of
the
equation,
and
that
would
be
the
other
half
that
is
dealt
with
in
the
guidelines.
C
I
think
some
folks
would
argue
rightfully
that
this
in
a
node-based
funding
formula
is
challenging
for
a
lot
of
neighborhood
associations,
but
I
think
remember.
We
were
tasked
with
a
budget
neutral
approach
to
this,
so
it's
not
a
function
of
where
we
think
good
work
is
or
whether
there's
work
possible
and
all
these
different
neighborhoods,
it's
just
a
function
of
how
much
money
is
in
the
pot
itself.
C
O
Thank
you,
madam
chair
and
I
appreciate
the
presentation,
and
especially
that
last
point.
I
just
want
to
point
that
out
this
idea
of
a
budget
neutral,
look
at
this
formula
and
the
reality
is
that
the
framework
ultimately
defunded
25
percent
off
of
what
neighborhood
associations
get
today
as
an
allocation.
Roughly
from
4.1
down
to
3.1
million
and
by
kind
of
constraining
the
base
pool
of
funding.
It's
really
forcing
an
outcome
on
the
other
side
of
the
equation.
What
we're
able
to
see
here,
which
is
really
that
it's
giving
us
a
false
option
between?
O
Think
that
that's
where
we
miss
as
a
council
in
our
ask
of
cura,
is
to
only
look
at
part
of
that
equation
and
not
to
actually
take
a
look
at
what
does
it
take
in
what
would
be
needed
from
a
funding
standpoint
in
order
to
have
both
racial
equity
in
the
funding
and
also
have
a
complete
network
of
neighborhood
association
ones
that
have
the
capacity
in
order
to
do
the
work
that
we're
asking
them
to
do
so.
I.
D
You,
madam
chair
I,
just
wanted
to
I'm
gonna
support
the
staff
direction
of
core
the
receiving
file.
I'm
just
wondering
if
you
need
me
to
make
a
motion
to
invite
mr.
Robert
Thompson
to
present
his
report
to
the
committee
at
the
next
Committee
of
the
Whole
meeting
or
you're.
Just
gonna
be
able
to
put
it
on
the
agenda
because
I
suggested.
D
D
K
K
C
Yes,
so
I
think
for
one:
yes
folks
who
need
the
most
get
the
most
from
a
racial
equity
perspective,
just
in
a
very
simple
way,
but
I
also
think
you
know:
I've
had
a
lot
of
conversations
in
particular
folks
who
are
in
Palmisano,
district
or
Ward
as
well
as
Johnson
and
Schrader's.
What
I
think
are
looking
at
this
sort
of
with
a
lot
of
tension,
but
I
also
think
that
there's
really
good
organizations.
What
am
I
some
of
my
favorites
are
Nina
I.
C
Think
Armitage
is
another
really
good
example
who
want
to
do
powerhouse
racial
equity
work
right
who
want
to
do
on
the
racism
training
who
want
to
organize
tenants
in
their
neighborhood
who
want
to
all
different
sorts
of
things
and
I.
Think
from
my
perspective,
I
think
the
city
should
look
upon
that
work,
favorably
and
it
deserves
to
be
funded,
and
so
I
think.
Whenever
folks
sort
of
asked
me,
this
question
I
think
racial
equity
work
as
possible
and
needs
to
be
done
in
every
single
corner
of
the
city.
C
Is
there
good
equity
work
to
be
done
in
each
corner
of
the
city?
Absolutely
and
so
I
think
I've
been
having
a
lot
of
conversations
with
those
neighborhood
associations,
so
I
think
some
folks
do
like
the
work
that
we're
doing
or
do
view.
This
conversation
is
very
much
needed
and
I
think
Kentucky
will
continue
to
do
that.
Work
with
those
groups
and
I
think
there's
work.
That's
possible.
A
K
C
Sure,
yes,
so
yeah,
so
a
lot
of
it
was
of
course
we're
working
with
a
very
short
time
frame,
which
I
think
y'all
knew,
and
you
made
the
directive
to
staff,
but
more
or
less.
We
tried
to,
of
course,
gather
all
the
different
neighborhood
associations
and
different
stakeholders
across
the
process,
primarily
through
the
large
gatherings
that
we
had,
which
had
very
good
attendance
across.
C
But
then
we
also
made
a
very
intentional
direction
to
bring
folks
who
were
not
part
of
this
process
and
an
or
who
not
able
to
show
up
in
those
large
gatherings
feeling
safe
to
have
the
conversations
that
they
really
wanted
to
have.
Is
we
made
a
very
intentional
effort
to
particularly
reach
out
to
by
POC
residents
and
renters
across
the
city,
and
so
we
hosted
a
committee
along
with
that
and
we
got
a
lot
of
really.
We
also
did
a
number
of
interviews.
C
One
to
one
across
the
city
also
really
understand,
folks
that
we
engage
people
who
work
in
neighborhood
associations
as
well.
So
those
are
in
the
organizing
committee
community,
those
who
are
doing
particularly
organizing
around
racial
equity,
to
sort
of
really
understand
their
thoughts
and
so
I
think
there's
a
lot
of
commentary
that
came
in
at
one
time,
sometimes
in
different
places.
Sometimes
that
was
because
we
wanted
to
protect
individuals,
privacy
and
ability
to
show
up
authenticity
I'm
in
this
process
as
well.
M
Well,
I
know
we're
gonna
have
lots
of
opportunity
to
discuss
this
going
further
and
I
don't
want
to
take
up
too
much
time.
I
did
just
want
to
say,
I
really
appreciated.
This
worked,
I
appreciated
you
kind
of
it
getting
some
kind
of
lens
so
that
we
can
measure
this
through
and
with
a
kind
of
an
understandable
list
of
criteria.
I
think
it's
on
the
previous
slide,
but
that
was
that
was
that
was
very
helpful
and
I
think
this
will
be
very
informative.
M
F
M
But
what
kind
of
implicit
bias
is
going
on?
We
didn't
even
know
all
the
restrictive
covenants
that
existed
in
our
neighborhood
that
had
laid
up,
who
were
the
homeowners
at
the
time,
and
so
it's
not
shocking
that
when
we
looked
at
what's
going
into,
you
know
these
programs
that
were
already
built
on
past
structural
racism,
that
there
wouldn't
be
these
kinds
of
issues.
So
but
it's
great
to
see
some
of
the
details
and
I
recognize
that
the
ce-1
program
is
a
slice.
It's
one
example
on.
A
M
We
had
good
data
for,
but
it's,
but
we
certainly
weren't
collecting
all
sorts
to
demo.
Everything
else
I
think
it's
great.
If
we
don't
spend
a
whole
lot
of
time
fighting
over
this
information,
but
we
move
forward
and
see
what
we
can
do
and
what
we
can
do
and
build
on
it
and
I
know
that
it
has
created
a
lot
of
angst
in
the
community,
but
I
think
it's
valuable
and
it's
insight
and-
and
we
can
try
to
do
better
as
we
step
forward.
N
You,
madam
chair
I,
just
wanted
to
take
a
minute
to
thank
counsel,
mark
Cunningham
and
yourself
and
those
who
were
optimistic
enough
to
really
insist
that
we
take
a
pause
and
do
this
kind
of
analysis
and
the
folks
in
the
NCR
department
and
kira,
who
really
worked
very
quickly,
to
bring
something
together.
I
didn't
support
the
emotion
that
that
allocated
the
$25,000
base
amount
and
and
I
think
Hans
marcano
very
articulately
articulated
what
my
gut
was
saying,
but
you
have
shown
us
with
data.
N
What
I
think
a
lot
of
us
sort
of
thought
might
be
true.
The
cynic
in
me
wasn't
sure
that
the
vote
count
would
change
with
more
information
and
I'm
still
not
sure
that
what
will
happen,
but
I
hope
that
we
will
all
really
take
this
to
heart.
And
I
also
wanted
to
mention
that
we
do
have
two
other
system
level
analysis
happening
within
the
city,
one
about
how
we're
communicating
with
our
constituents
and
external
communications
and
another
about
how
we're
doing
community
engagement
as
a
City.
N
But
it
isn't
realistic
to
rely
on
largely
volunteer
based
organizations
to
do
outreach
for
so
much
of
the
decisions
that
we're
making
as
a
city
that
the
that
the
burden
really
rests
on
the
city
to
do
better
and
at
the
beginning,
and
then
welcome
in
partners
like
our
neighborhood
organizations.
So
just
appreciate
that
very
much
you
wanted
to
remind
especially
about
those
two
other
sort
of
system-wide
analysis
that
we're
doing
of
communications
and
communication.
L
You,
madam
chair
I'm,
just
seeking
clarification
on
the
discussion
that
was
brought
forward
about
the
the
shadow
report.
The
main
heard
you
report
I,
don't
know
what
to
call
it,
but
I'm
I'm
unclear
as
to
what
that
would
that
suggestion
is
and
wondered
if
there
could
be
clarification,
I'm
happy
to
support.
L
Of
course,
the
receiving
file
of
the
city
approved
process
that
we
that
we
took
on
through
a
transparent,
RFP
and
applications
and
the
research
that
was
done
with
the
University
of
Minnesota
and
with
our
folks
here
today,
but
I'm
likely
not
going
to
be
able
to
support
adding
another
report
to
the
filing
of
this.
Just
because
you
know
me
I'm
a
process
person
like.
H
L
So
I
just
need
clarification
about
kind
of
like
what
is
that
intent
and
and
like
what
is
the
motions
here
before
us,
and
if
we
are
setting
more
reports
to
be
added
to
the
public
comment
today,
whether
it's
a
motion
by
a
councilmember,
Goodman
or
others,
then
we
should
probably
solicit
more
reports
from
other
groups
and
make
it
just.
You
know
everybody.
A
L
J
You,
madam
chair
I,
like
this
conversation
about
how
we
learned
to
get
better
communicating
as
a
city
and
part
of
that
is
our
own
work.
We've
gone
through.
We've
done
an
audit
we're
really
looking
intentionally
at
that
work
and,
as
you
mentioned,
my
neighborhoods
have
also
been
looking
at
that
very
intentionally,
and
they
really
want
to
do
some
of
this
race
equity
work
and
they
want
the
ability
to
function
and
to
still
be
neighborhood
organizations
themselves.
J
So
from
from
the
perspective
of
the
neighborhoods
that
I
represent
racial
equity,
work
is
needed
in
every
corner
of
our
city
and
how
we
do
that
looks
a
lot
different
across
our
city
right,
which
is
part
of
the
value
of
asking
neighborhood
associations
to
be
part
of
it
because
of
their
reach
right.
But
my
question
is:
did
Kira
look
at
what
minimum
funding
would
be
necessary
for
any
neighborhood
to
do
race,
equity
work,
in
addition
to
the
work
that
they're
doing
today,
or
was
that
out
of
scope?
So.
C
C
If
you'd
be
able
to
do
and
I
think,
there's
a
lot
of
there's
a
couple
questions
that
I
would
have
about
that.
So
one
of
the
things
that
has
really
come
out
of
this
process
is
that
neighborhood
associations
view
themselves
as
independent
organizations.
So
part
of
the
question
is:
is
it
the
city's
responsibility
to
fund
all
of
the
work
of
neighborhood
associations,
or
is
it
just
the
racial
equity
work,
at
least
for
me,
I
haven't
heard
like
a
clear.
C
This
is
what
we
want
you
to
analyze,
but
that
would
be
my
first
question
and
then
yeah
I
think
there's
a
lot
of
sort
of
deeper
analysis.
It
would
be
more
money
than
what's
currently
in
the
pot.
I
know
that
for
sure,
in
order
for
all
neighborhoods,
all
70
of
those
associations
to
do
racial
equity
work,
so
I
just
want.
P
You
venom
cherry
not
sure
if
it
makes
sense
now
or
later,
but
as
we
get
into
the
conversation
of
what
it
takes
for
an
organization
to
do
this
work
in
the
amount
of
money.
One
thing
that
I
found
missing
is
just
the
unspent
fund
that
funds
that
new
road
organizations
have.
It
was
one
line
in
your
real
work.
I
wasn't
sure
if
you're
gonna
get
into
it
today.
P
So
I'd
like
to
bring
a
staff
direction,
I
just
emailed
it
to
the
clerk
in
distributed
to
my
colleagues
just
to
report
back
at
the
next
meeting
of
how
to
just
have
the
unspent
funds.
As
of
December
31st,
this
numbers
they've
already
we
talked
with
staff-
they
already
have.
This
data
I
think
would
just
be
good
for
all
of
us
up
here
to
have
the
kind
of
the
full
story.
A
P
F
H
K
Thank
you,
madam
chair
I,
actually
just
want
to
build
off
of
what
councilmember
Palmisano.
The
point
she
made
is
I
think
that
we
as
a
council
a
part
of
the
conversation
that
we
need
to
have
an
direction
we
need
to
give
is
first
off
our
neighborhood
organizations,
independent
operating
501,
C
3s
or
are
the
extensions
of
the
city.
K
There
is
mixed
messaging
around
that,
and
because
one
of
the
challenges
is
that
if
we
have
independently
operating
501,
C
3s
that
we
are
essentially
fully
funding,
but
then
are
not
also
extensions
of
the
city
it
gets
murky.
So
I
think
we
need
to
have
some
clarification
around
that,
because
then,
that
changes
around
a
conversation
around
base
funding,
because
what
we're
really
seeing
here,
councillor
Palmisano
point
is
really
specifically.
If
the
money
that
is
allocated
to
neighborhood
associations
specifically
focuses
on
racial
equity,
it's
not
about
operations,
it's
not
about
all
the
other
existing
programming.
K
Necessarily,
this
is
shifting
the
dynamic
between
the
city
and
neighborhood
associations
from
neighborhood
associations,
essentially
being
independent,
nonprofits
extension,
also
extensions
of
the
city
to
independent,
independently
operating
501,
C
3s
and
the
city
as
a
grantor.
So
it
changes
that
that
dynamic
and
clarifies
that
so
I
think
that
that
is
a
part
of
what
the
conversation
we
need
to
have
as
council
members
around
what
in
this
next
iteration
of
neighborhood
associations.
What
is
the
clarified
relationship
between
neighborhood
associations
and
the
city?
So
I
just
wanted
to
uplift?
K
With
the
multitude
of
deliverables,
sorry
team,
I,
based
on
conversations
I
had
with
colleagues,
there
was
an
overwhelming
desire
for
to
stay
within
the,
but
current
budget
allocation,
and
so
I
just
I
want
to
name
that
logic
that
that
kind
of
was
not
necessarily
just
at
a
whim.
Folks
wanted
to
keep
the
scope
within
what
we
currently
have
because
of
the
fact
that
there
are
property,
tax
implications
and
whatnot.
So
there
there
are,
and
within
that
again
we
need
to
figure
out
what
the
relationship
is
moving
forward
between
the
city
and
neighborhood
associations
and
I.
N
N
And
then
what
do
we
do
in
the
situation
where,
for
example,
in
my
award,
you
know
and
I,
don't
think
anecdotes
are
always
that
helpful,
but
I've
seen
amazing
grassroots
based
work
in
my
ward
and
I've
also
had
the
situation
where
a
neighborhood
organization
is
it
officially
opposed
to
something
that
clearly,
the
vast
majority
of
the
constituents
of
that
neighborhood
support,
for
example,
opposing
affordable
housing
in
a
neighborhood?
That's
90
percent
renter
fascinating
facing
massive
gentrification,
and
so
it
kind
of
gets
to
the
heart
of
how
are
we
balancing
all
of
these
give
and
takes?
N
And
then
what
are
we?
How
are
we
using
that
information
to
make
governance
decisions
in
a
way
that
honors
the
work
that's
happening?
You
know
in
our
communities
at
the
neighborhood
organization
level,
so
I
really
appreciate
us
returning
back
to
those
bigger
picture,
questions
about
how
we're
doing
keeping
engagement
and
how
neighborhood
organizations
fit
into
that.
G
G
If
there
are
folks
who
have
different
research,
a
different
opinion
I'm
happy
to
hear
that
info
as
well,
but
I
do
think
it's
important
that
the
existential
question
around
neighborhoods
is
for
us
to
answer.
You
know,
maybe
not
cure
to
answer
and
the
question
around
and
and
making
sure
that
the
neighborhood's
know
and
feel
validated
in
the
good
work
they
have
done.
A
But
is
not
this
works
home
committee.
But
I
will
just
note
that
at
its
February
26
meeting
that
shows
the
balance
of
unspent
funds,
both
contracted
and
unn
contracted
held
by
neighborhood
organizations.
As
of
December
31st
2019.
This
report
should
include
overall
unspent
funds
at
the
citywide
level
and
each
neighborhoods
organization,
total
unspent,
in
our
P
and
CCP.
A
D
Both
people
come
and
talk
to
us
for
20
minutes,
and
there
was
no
vote
on
that
and
maybe
there
should
have
been,
but
there
wasn't
so
I
feel,
like
I'm
being
held
to
a
higher
standard,
to
give
someone
an
opportunity
to
speak
I'm
talking
about
20
minutes
for
him
to
just
go
over
his
report
and
then,
since
we're
already
taking
up
the
other
issues
in
committee.
On
that
same
day,
we
can
just
people
can
discuss
it
if
they
want,
or
they
can
just
happily
say.
D
Thank
you
for
your
work
and
hear
it
and
I
think
that
that
would
be
at
a
minimum.
The
least
we
could
do
to
to
a
group
of
people
as
well
as
an
individual
who
has
had
20-plus
years
at
the
city,
who
has
worked
with
many
different
neighborhood
organizations.
He
actually
posed
the
C
LPC
Loring
Park
Stax
person
before
he
came
to
the
city.
So
he's
not
a
bad
person
with
some
evil
Minority
Report.
He
has
a
slightly
different
point
of
view
and
I
would
also
ask
him
to
show
the
same
respect
that
mr.
D
Anderson
showed
today.
I
didn't
feel
any
animus
or
negativity
for
mr.
Anderson
and
I'd
call
it
out
if
I
did
and
I
would
ask
mr.
Thompson
to
do
the
same
and
I'm
sure.
Perhaps
the
Cure
team
would
be
here,
and
it
would
help
a
dialogue
between
them
if
nothing
else
to
helps
heal
some
of
the
bad
feelings
that
are
going
on
I.
Don't
I
am
somewhat
surprised
that
I'm
being
asked
Eve
and
make
a
motion
to
do
this,
given
that
that's
normally
not
the
process
that
we've
used
to
bring
things
up
in
committee.
L
Well,
I
was
going
to
see
something
different,
but
now
that
councilmember
Goodman
has
brought
up
the
issue
of
precedent,
my
questions
is:
is
now
more
about
process.
I
agree
that
it
is
not
good
for
us
to
seem
to
favor
one
group
over
another
when
they
want
to
come
to
speak
at
our
meetings.
I'm
wondering
if
the
city
clerk
has
any
guidance.
L
Q
The
way
that
matter,
madam
chair,
the
way
that
items
come
before
the
committee's
are,
of
course,
they're
referred
from
the
City
Council.
There
is
an
action
we
take
at
every
City
Council
meeting
to
refer
to
the
proper
standing
committees,
the
petitions
and
referrals,
and
matters
referred
to
them.
This
item
is
coming
up
outside
of
that
cycle.
Certainly
that
could
have
been
part
of
Friday's
council
action.
I.
Q
Think
that's
between
the
councilmember
asking
for
this
to
be
done
at
the
next
committee
and
this
committees
chair
the
chair,
indicated
at
the
beginning
that
we
take
a
motion
to
go
ahead
and
allow
or
invite
this
other
presentation
of
data
and
because
that
would
be
subject
to
the
body
to
say.
Yes,
we
want
to
hear
from
someone
else
on
this
same
matter
and
hear
a
different
perspective
on
that
research.
It
would
be
for
the
body
to
say
yes,
we
want
that,
so
it's
not
inappropriate
to
have
that
matter
come
before
the
body
to
vote.
Q
N
You,
madam
chair
I'll,
be
brief:
I,
don't
support,
adding
that
to
the
agenda
next
month,
we've
hired
a
consultant
to
do
this
work.
We
heard
from
the
consultant
I
think
if
we
have
a
public
hearing
on
this
matter
with
a
decision
point
before
the
council,
that
would
be
an
appropriate
time
for
members
of
the
public
or
interest
groups
or
any
organizations
to
come
forward
and
share
their
opinions.
We've
gotten
an
email
with
lots
of
information.
N
K
Thank
you,
madam
chair
I,
also
cannot
support
this
motion
to
bring
this
forward
because,
as
council
president
vender
said,
we
have
a
consultant
that
went
through
the
process
to
be
selected
to
be
the
the
the
partner
in
this
work,
the
additional
research
that
is
asked
being
asked
to
be
brought
forward
before
the
City
Council.
While
this
person
has
20
years
plus
years
of
experience
and
I,
don't
want
to
disparage
anyone.
K
But
this
is
a
specific
person.
That's
asking
for
this
information
to
be
put
before
city
council
used
to
be
an
employee
of
the
city
and
has
been
vocal
about
their
displeasure
with
an
NCR
and
and
I
think
that
not
having
a
neutral
a
neutral
party
bringing
data
before
the
City
Council
is
not
good
information
for
us
to
be
able
to
use
to
analyze
for
the
work
we
were
sent
it
the
report
happy
to
read
through
it
again.
M
M
If
this
was
something
that
occurred
during
agenda-setting
and
the
chair,
the
committee
had
an
opportunity
to
talk
to
staff
about
it,
because
maybe
we'd
find
out
that
staff
would
would
welcome
the
opportunity
to
have
a
deeper
discussion
and
use
some
of
the
information
that
was
gleaned
from
another
outside
report.
So
it's
a
little
bit
awkward
I
haven't
really
got
the
impression
of
the
the
committee's
chair
or
staff
about
putting
this
on
the
agenda
or
not
and
I'd,
rather
to
go
through
a
different
process
to
get
here,
but
I'm
also
fairly
neutral
on
it.
D
You
about
I'm
sure
I
did
actually
have
an
opportunity
to
ask
the
chair
about
it
earlier
today,
so
this
was
not
a
surprise
to
her
I'm
just
wondering
if
like,
for
example,
the
mph
a
resolution
did
that
get
voted
on
move
be
moved
to
committee,
but
it
feels
like
there's
a
double
standard
here
and
I
just
want
to
call
it
out.
So
I'd
ask
the
clerk
for
a
roll
call
vote.
Please
I.
F
N
H
A
A
A
D
I
might
invite
Robert
Thompson
to
my
committee,
then
I'll.
Let
you
all
know
if
that's
gonna
happen,
cuz,
apparently
that's
what
you
get
to
do
you
just
get
to
bring
up
stuff
on
your
own
committee,
whether
we
vote
on
it
or
not
so
I
just
want
to
note
I
might
bring
that
to
my
committee
and
I
guess:
you'll
all
find
out
about
it.
When
it's
on
the
agenda.
The
EDRs
committee
is
moving
forward,
a
number
of
items
of
importance,
eight
in
total
for
the
council
meeting
on
Friday.
D
The
most
notable
item
is
the
reappointment
of
the
regulatory
services
director
Kim
Keller,
and
that
was
a
very
positive
public
hearing.
Item
number
two
is
Mary
Ellen's
Bistro.
It's
a
new
license.
Item
number
three
is
a
new
license
for
butcher
salt
item
number:
four:
are
the
like
liquor
license
approvals
and
five
is
a
license
for
Quincy
Hall
item
six
or
grant
applications
to
Hennepin
County's
environmental
response
fund
item.
Seven
is
a
contract
amendment
with
employee,
Milwaukee
and
item
number.
D
Eight
was
a
staff
direction
drafted
by
councilmember
ellison,
and
it's
noted
in
your
packet
below
this
is
with
regard
to
answering
a
couple
of
questions
about
the
small
business
work
happening
in
the
city
and
I'll.
Just
read
these
out
loud.
How
can
the
city
create
consistency
as
it
relates
to
community
engagement
and
the
collection
of
feedback
when
it
comes
to
interfacing
with
small
businesses?
D
Could
the
city
collect
or
access
data
that
would
further
help
inform
its
policy
decisions
related
to
small
businesses
and
given
that
the
private
market
has
perpetuated
inequality
in
quality
and
access
to
capital
for
black
indigenous
and
people
of
color
small
businesses?
How
can
the
city
create
or
modify
its
existing
programs
to
assist
businesses
struggling
to
access
capital,
and
we
had
a
good
conversation
about
this,
and
this
was
unanimously
approved
in
committee
on
Tuesday
and
with
that
I'll?
Happily
answer
any
questions,
one
through
eight
for
people,
Thank.

M
Thank
you
very
much
thousand
policy
and
Development

will
be
bringing
forward
five
items
for

Loans.
M
A
K
You,
madam
chair
I,
first
before
we
get
started,
I'm
just
reviewing
the
five
items.
I
just
also
want
to
make
clear
that
the
neighborhoods
2020
work,
the
home
committee
is
the
peace
committee
and
the
reason
why
we
presented
here
today
was
because
of
the
specific
racial
equity
analysis
is
within
the
scope
of
the
race
equity
subcommittee,
so
just
to
clarify,
because
that
kind
of
came
up
a
couple
of
times.
K
So
the
home
committee
is
because
the
its
engagement
focus
falls
within
the
peace
committee
and
today
it
was
a
racial
equity,
specific
presentation,
which
is
why
I
came
to
the
south.
So
on
that
note
there
are
five
items
that
will
be
brought
forward
for
approval
on
Friday.
The
first
is
a
is
approving
the
reappointment
of
director
of
Civil
Rights
bhowmick
horrible
to
the
director
of
Civil
Rights.
K
The
first
cycle
of
the
child-friendly
city
initiative
recognition
is
five
years
from
the
signing
of
the
MOU
as
a
quick
aside.
I
just
want
a
name
that
we
will
be
the
first
city
in
North
America
that
will
be
signing
an
MoU
and
we
are
on
track
to
be
the
first
city
in
North
America
designated
as
a
UNICEF
child
friendly
City.
Item
number.
K
New
trainings
and
initiatives
supporting
the
implementation
of
recommended
action
items,
including,
but
not
limited
to
providing
technical
assistance,
implementing
action
items
with
appropriate
departments
and
staff
and
providing
continuous
implementation
support
and
participate
in
the
evaluation
of
implementing
recommendations
and
the
plan
as
a
whole
in
cooperation
with
the
youth
Coordinating
Board.
So
that
was
a
lot
to
basically
say
that
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we
are
aligning
city
investments,
city
programs,
the
city
initiatives
to
be
able
to
have
the
best
outcomes
for
young
people
possible.
I'm.
Happy
to
answer
any
questions.
Thank
you
to
Cunningham.

Sure
could
I
just
do
a
quick
note.
I
know

I
just
saw
my
colleagues
know
in
just
a
few
minutes
the
IG,
our
committee
is
going
to
be
hearing
on
the
Kahn
rule

redistricting,
and
it
affects
all
of
our
wards
and
the
potential
future
elections.
So
it's
a
pretty
important
able
to
stick
around.
That
would
be
great
thanks.
