mclaughlin.
I

special
service
district

C
F
B
Very
good
the
agenda
to
the
meeting
has
been
approved,
as
have
the
minutes
to
the
prior
meeting.
With
that
we
will
move
to
our
public
comment
period.
I
will
note
that
we
have
been
joined
by
several
members
of
the
public,
who
are
local
business
community
representatives,
no
obligation
to
address
the
board,
but
we
do
have
15
minutes
on
the
agenda
for
public
comment
period.
If
any
of
the
guests
that
have
joined
us
would
like
to
address
the
board.
A
B
Going
once
going
twice
very
good,
we
will
close
the
public
comment
period.
Next,
we
have
our
discussion
items.
The
first
discussion
item
is
the
2020
annual
report.
We
wanted
to
spend
just
a
couple
of
minutes
going
through
that
it
was
included
in
your
packet
and
I
will
share
my
screen
in
just
a
moment.
There
we
go
so
again.
This
was
included.
The
2028
report
was
included
in
the
packet
and
has
been
posted
to
the
city
website.
We
just
wanted
to
hit
a
few
highlights.
B
It's
a
four-page
document.
The
first
page
is
just
meant
to
be
a
general
overview,
provide
an
overview
of
the
advisory
board.
I
spent
just
a
couple
of
minutes
talking
about
the
summary
of
services,
so
sidewalk
snow
services.
We
did
have
56.4
inches
of
total
snow
accumulation
for
the
year.
This
included
the
early
part
of
the
year
january
through
may,
and
the
latter
part
of
the
year
october.
B
Through
december
tree
lighting,
we
did
install
tree
lighting
on
approximately
78
trees
in
november
and
maintained
both
the
tree
lighting
and
the
electrical
system
throughout
the
throughout
the
year,
in,
in
your
case,
to
minimize
the
downtime
of
any
lighting.
We
do
swap
the
lighting
out
in
august
and
put
new
lighting
up.
B
At
least
that's
been
the
traditional
cadence
for
for
approximately
the
next
12
months,
and
the
cost
also
included
all
of
the
utility
expenses
which
are
separately
invoiced
to
the
district,
I'm
just
going
through
this
quickly.
So
if
anybody
has
any
questions
feel
free
to
to,
let
me
know
on
the
litter
management,
so
the
services
again
included
emptying
the
public
trash
receptacles
performing
the
spring
and
paul
district
y
cleanups,
as
well
as
the
manual
pan
and
broom
services.
B
The
results
were
just
under
68
000
cubic
feet
of
trash
were
removed
from
the
district
main
trash
receptacles.
We
did
adjust
the
trash
service
frequency
as
needed,
based
on
you,
know,
increased
and
decreased
pedestrian
activity
in
the
district,
so
so
that
that
result
reflects
that.
The
pan
and
broom
service
was
provided
36
times
january
through
december.
B
So,
as
you
can
see
an
average
of
three
times
a
month
over
the
course
of
the
year,
resulting
in
approximately
almost
another
900
cubic
feet
of
trash
removed
from
the
district,
there
were
also
again
the
seasonal
cleanups
provided
in
april
and
november
to
to
really
do
and
then
more
in-depth
cleaning
of
the
district.
B
The
streetball
banners
there
are,
no
services
were
recommended
by
the
advisory
board.
Those
three
poll
banners
were
removed
several
years
ago
by
request
and
recommendation
from
the
advisory
board,
but
that
is
a
line
item
in
your
budget
and
then
under
streetscape
maintenance
and
repair
the
removal
of
graffiti.
This
includes
the
removal
of
graffiti
and
posters
from
the
public
right-of-way
again.
This
is
not
private
property
but
public.
The
public
realm,
so
lightful
traffic
service
cabinets
things
like
that.
B
We
also
watered
any
young
boulevard,
trees
and
repaired
and
replaced
any
streetscape
fixtures
as
need
be
that
resulted
in
676
instances
of
graffiti
that
were
abated
over
the
course
of
the
year
and
we
watered
the
15
trees
15
times
with
15
gallons
of
water,
which
is
a
lot
of
fifteens
for
a
growing
season,
but
to
try
to
get
make
sure
those
young
trees
are
able
to
get
established.
B
There
were
a
few
minor
streetscape
repairs,
including
replacing
missing
lids
for
trash
receptacles,
and
we
periodically
go
through
and
remove
any
obviously
abandoned
bicycles
that
have
are
still
attached
to
any
public.
Right-Of-Way.
B
Excuse
me
moving
on
to
the
financials
year
in
financials,
so
the
the
revised
budget,
the
budget
was
196
thousand
dollars.
We
actually
spent
174
718
of
that.
So
there
was
a
surplus
again.
You
have
about
two
two
components
to
your
service
charges,
so
the
bulk
of
that
was,
in
your
part,
one
service
charges
and
the
remaining
was
of
that
surplus
was,
in
your
part,
two
service
charges.
So
again
a
total
of
what
is
the
math
I'll
scroll
down
here
it
was
22
000..
B
I
think
21
282
excuse
me
and
then
the
final
page
here
is
the
map
of
the
district
just
to
go
back
to
financials,
so
in
keeping
with
past
practice
and
recommendations
from
the
advisory
board.
B
That
surplus
was
carried
forward
to
2021
and
amended
into
your
2021
budget,
so
those
dollars
and
resources
are
available
to
spend
in
this
calendar
year
from
surplus
funds
at
the
end
of
the
last
calendar
year
and
you'll
see
that
this
amended
amount
reflected
in
your
in
your
2021
budget
in
just
a
moment
any
questions
on
the
annual
report.
This
is
not
an
action
item
so,
but
I
can
pause
if
any
board
members
have
any
questions.
B
All
right
we'll
keep
moving,
then.
The
next
agenda
item
is
the
2021
work
plan
and
implementation.
I
wanted
to
hit
a
couple
of
highlights
here,
so
let
me
zoom
out
just
you
can
see
the
full
screen
again.
This
was
in
the
packet,
so
you
see
your
original
budget.
You
see
the
amended
budget,
so
those
those
two
surplus
amounts
are
reflected
as
revenue
line
items
up
here.
So
the
amended
budget
for
this
calendar
year
is
217
282
for
placeholder
purposes.
B
We
put
those
line
items
in
the
allocated
them
to
the
sidewalk
snow
services
line
item
for
the
part,
one
charges
and
part
two
was
allocated
to
the
tree
lighting,
but
please
know
that
we
do
have
some
flexibility
if
those
dollars
are
needed
in
any
of
these
other
line
items.
So
again,
your
amended
budget
was
217
282
well
kind
of
from
here.
B
Unless
this
question
specifically
about
the
financials
but
the
work
plan,
just
with
the
businesses
reopening,
we
certainly
have
been
increasing,
you
know
paying
attention
to
the
trash,
receptacle
usage
and
increasing
the
frequency
of
those
services
as
needed
over
the
course
of
this
calendar
year.
B
The
the
plan
is
to
stick
with
the
original
work
plan
in
terms
of
the
service
frequencies,
but
which
again
are
the
pan
and
broom
twice
a
month,
and
then
we
do
typically-
and
I
sounds
like
this-
will
be
the
case.
This
fall
when
there
are
events
at
at
the
at
the
football
stadium
and
or
any
larger
events
on
campus,
we
tend
to
add
a
a
painted
room
after
some
of
those
large
events
to
make
sure
that
the
district
is
is
clean.
B
So
that's
how
we
average
that
two
to
three
times
a
month
in
terms
of
that
pain
and
broom
service,
the
tree
lighting
will
be
replaced
sort
of
that
august
september
time
frame
for
for
the
coming
for
the
coming
12-month
period.
B
The
the
snow
contract
we're
actually
just
an
update
there,
we're
in
the
process
of
rebidding
the
district
snow
contract
last.
This
last
season
winter
season
was
the
third
and
final
season
of
that
contract.
B
So
we
to
be
determined,
if
you
will,
the
district
will
have
a
different
vendor
or
not
for
the
coming
season
and
as
as
you
can
surmise,
we
don't
yet
have
the
pricing
for
the
for
the
new
contract
yet,
but
we
expect
to
have
the
new
contract
in
place
in
september
for
again
for
the
coming
winter
season.
B
We
have.
We've
also
definitely
been
paying
attention
to
graffiti
removal.
You
know.
Certainly
there
has
been
some
activity
in
the
district
in
terms
of
you
know
just
protests,
and
things
like
that.
So
we
wanted
to
make
sure
that
we're
in
there
proactively
as
soon
as
those
activities
are
concluded,
to
try
to
address
any
graffiti
that
might
be
in
in
the
right
of
way.
Any
questions
comments
on
the
2021
work
plan.
G
Mike
this
randall,
I'm
just
curious.
I
don't
know
if
it's
appropriate
now,
but
I
I
just
got
a
few
questions.
B
B
Yeah
so
wow
happy
to
answer
them,
but
we,
why
don't
we
do
this?
Assuming
we
have
time
at
the
end
of
the
the
group's
action
here
where
we
can
be
more
than
happy
to
reopen
the
public
comment
period
and
answer
any
of
the
questions.
A
G
I
I
well
I
I
didn't
know
that
during
the
original
part
there
it
was
issue,
so
I
I
didn't
want
to
interrupt
with
public
comments
forward
until
we
had
gotten
into
the
various
details.
So
I
don't
think
about
three
questions.
B
All
right
again,
no
action
item
required
on
that
the
so
included
in
the
packet
was
also
a
draft
2022
budget.
B
The
this
is
the
meeting
where
we're
looking
for
the
budget
recommendation
for
the
coming
year
for
meaning
2022
calendar
year
draft
budget
was
included,
as
is
our
practice
in
preparing
the
draft
budget,
which
is
by
no
means
set
in
stone,
very
much
draft
subject
to
today's
conversation
and
recommendation
from
from
the
advisory
board.
B
You
will
see
that
the
I
have
suggested
a
a
a
slight
increase
from
80
000
to
82
000
on
the
line
item
for
sidewalk
snow
services,
although
I
think
we
can
drop
the
tree
lighting
item
by
the
by
2
000
again,
this
is
based
on
actual
costs
from
year
end
last
year,
so
budgetarily
it
would
be
a
wash
keeping
litter
management
at
80.
B
000
seemed
to
be
appropriate
recognizing
that
last
year,
while
services
were
lower
this
year,
the
the
obviously
the
the
hope
and
aspiration
is
that
pedestrian
volumes
return
to
normal,
especially
with
students
returning
to
campus.
This
fall
so
and
more
people
just
out
in
general,
so
I'm
not
suggesting
any
change
in
the
either
the
line
item
or
the
scope
of
work
proposed
for
next
year
and
similarly,
with
the
streetscape
maintenance
and
repair,
the
twelve
thousand
dollar
placeholder
seemed
to
be
appropriate.
B
So
with
that
these
service
charges,
the
budget
would
be
196
000,
which
is
status
quo
to
your
original
2021
budget.
B
However,
we
do
because
we
do
not
have
a
deficit
to
apply
the
total
service
charges
in
this
budget
will
would
drop
by
over
twelve
thousand
dollars
from
2021
down
to
196
000..
So
just
to
say
that
again
in
2021,
we
had
a
deficit,
a
net
deficit
from
2019
that
we
needed
to
recoup.
So
that's
why
we
can
maintain
a
status
quo
budget
and
have
service
charges
match
that
budget
amount,
because
there
is
no
deficit.
So
again,
this
is
can't.
B
Do
the
math
fast
enough,
approximately
an
eight
percent
decrease
in
service
charges
that
would
be
conveyed
to
the
to
the
property,
all
the
contributing
properties
in
lower
service
charges
for
calendar
year
2022
under
this
budget,
so
I
could
have
started
with
this,
but
what
we,
the
typical
approach
we
have
taken
this
year,
just
recognizing
the
economic
impact
of
of
the
pandemic
and
the
civil
unrest
in
a
number
of
districts.
B
Is
we've
really
tried
to
come
in
with
no
increased
budget
drafts
for
board
discussion,
just
recognizing
the
economic
impact
that
the
last
you
know,
16
18
months
have
had
on
on
businesses.
So
that's
why
you
see
us,
you
know
presenting
a
status
quo
draft
budget
rather
than
any
significant
modifications,
questions,
comments,
thoughts
on
the
draft
2022
budget.
F
Yeah
I'd
like
to
start
off
there
what
happened
to
the
discussion
we
had
about
adding
tree
light
to
our
sides
of
the
street
on
13th,
because
there
was
a
talk
previously,
you
were
supposed
to
be
looking
into
bidding
that
out
to
add
that
to
this
year's
budget.
I
don't
see
that
on
here
and
you're,
talking
about
reducing
the
spending
on
the
tree
lighting.
B
Yep
so
great
question
brian,
so
we
did
work
informally
with
an
electrical
contractor
to
to
get
a
better
sense
of
the
pricing
to
introduce
an
electrical
system
on
the
west
I'll
call
it
the
west
side
of
13th.
B
The
cost
was
approximately
90
to
100
000
to
add
electrical
services,
ssd
expand
the
ssd
electrical
system
to
that
block
base.
So
that
is
something
we
can
absolutely.
If
that
is
the
the
desire
of
the
advisory
board
to
have
a
conversation
about
the
the
one
nuance
there
is
that
that
we're
still
doing
a
little
bit
of
research
on
this
and
brian.
I
might
look
to
you
to
see
if
you
have
any
historical
records,
but
right
now
we
don't
have
any
information
suggesting
that
the
property
is
on.
B
The
west
side
of
the
street
were
originally
assessed.
The
capital
assessment,
when
the
electrical
system
was
installed
back
in
the
mid
90s.
So
because
of
that,
the
you
know,
presumably
the
default
position
would
be
that
that
would
the
capital
cost
to
expand.
The
electrical
system
would
have
to
be
a
property
owner
cost
and
then,
once
the
system's
in
place,
it
would
transition
to
an
ssd
cost,
and
that
is
exactly
what
happened
in
the
90s
when
the
original
system
was
put
in
is
there
was
a
capital
assessment
imposed
on
all
of
the
contributing
properties?
B
F
B
Okay,
so
the
city,
because
the
original
capital
assessment
was
has
basically
turned
out.
It
expired
because
all
the
assessments
were
imposed.
The
city's
record-keeping
policy
is
that
it
only
keeps
it
for
a
couple
of
years
after
the
final
year
of
the
assessment,
so
the
city
does,
we
haven't
been
able
to
find
any
records
within
the
city
because
it
may
be
old.
B
Records
are
kept
by
policy,
so
I
was
saying
you
might
sometimes
properties
have
you
know
candidly
old
boxes
of
stuff
that
may
indicate
if
you
know
the
property
was
assessed,
there
aren't
a
lot
of
indications
to
suggest
that
it
was
in
the
two
properties
or,
however,
what
property
configuration
was
at
the
time.
It
doesn't
suggest
that
it
was
part
of
the
original,
enhanced
streetscape
project
in
part,
because
some
of
the
other
streetscape
elements
don't
extend
to
that
block.
F
B
That
is
another
option,
and
that
is
certainly
something
we
have
done
in
other
areas
where
a
private
property
owner
has
provided
the
electrical
supply
and
the
service
district
can
partner
with
those
that
property
owner
to
put
things
like
tree
lighting.
You
know
on
the
trees
in
the
public
right-of-way,
that
is
a
partnership
model
that
we
have
absolutely
done
in
the
past
and
could
do
here.
F
F
Definitely
be
interested
with
that,
if
it's
going
to
be
cost,
you
know
if
it's
going
to
cost
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
from
while
you're
underneath
the
road.
I
don't
think
as
a
member
of
this
board.
I
don't
think
anybody
on
the
board
should
prove
that.
But
since
we
are
being
assessed
for
the
tree
lighting,
we
do
want
to
partake
in
that
and
we
would
want
to
move
forward
with
having
the
electrical
circuits
set
out
to
our
trees
so
that
you
guys
can
maintain
the
lights
on
there.
B
Okay,
we
can,
we
can
absolutely
do
that,
so
I
think
we
could.
B
Candidly,
we
could
do
it.
This
fall
if
we
can
get
power
there
fast
enough,
so
yeah
that
so
that
could
assuming
there's
concurrence
from
the
other
board
members
to
do
that.
That
would
be,
could
be
an
ssd
expense
again
as
soon
as
this
year,
because
we
already
have
a
line
item
for
for
tree
lighting,
and
I
have
a
tree
lighting
program.
B
The
well
brian,
we
can
certainly
work
with
you
offline
and
figure
out
the
the
best
way
to
to
most
effective
way
to
get
power
to
those
tree
locations,
and
if
it
can,
we
can
move
as
fast
as
your
schedule
allows,
but
to
to
get
lighting
on
those
trees.
I
don't
here's
any
opposition
to
the
district
partnering
with
with
riverton.
To
do
that.
You
know
as
quickly
as
can
be
done.
F
So
for
feasibility,
you
would
just
need
one
circuit
coming
out
to
one
of
the
trees,
and
then
they
could
run
extension
cords
between
the
trees
like
they
do
in
the
rest
of
the
neighborhoods.
I'm
assuming
you
wouldn't
need
more
than
one
circuit.
B
We
I
think,
we'd
have
to
let's
talk
about
that
offline,
because
typically
we
do
need
more
than
one
circuits,
because
your
district
uses
incandescent
lights,
which
puts
a
much
heavier
load
on
the
trees
and
in
some
cases,
yes,
we
are
able
to
run
extension
cords
from
sort
of
pole
to
pole
or
tree
to
pull
and
so
forth.
B
We'll
have
to
evaluate
the
feasibility
of
that
in
on
your
stretch
in
part.
Just
to
you
know,
there's
just
issues
with
the
span
that
we're
running
and
things
like
that.
So
it's
a
little
easier
to
kind
of
figure,
those
things
out
in
the
field-
I
guess,
but
you
know,
assuming
we
can
figure
out
a
way.
I
don't
know
why
to
do
it
safely
and
not
cause
any
problems
to
the
for
the
safety
of
the
public.
I
don't
see
why
we
couldn't
proceed
with
sort
of
offline
conversations.
B
That
work-
and
we
can
make
sure
I
mean
we're
not
talking
about
that
many
trees,
so
we
can
make
sure
we've
got
enough
lighting
material
to
do
that
as
well,
so
that
that
I
don't
foresee
an
issue
there,
at
least
as
of
right
now,
the
yeah
I'm
just
I'm.
Looking
at
a
google
street
view,
we
a
couple
things
we
need
to
think
about,
though,
is
the
span
to
the
closer
we
get
to
four
street
in
order
to
get
power
over
there.
B
B
So
again
this
some
status
quo
in
terms
of
the
existing
service
frequencies.
For
for
the
for
the
variety
of
services
that
the
district
provides.
B
It
not
at
this
point
I
I
really
I'd
be
I'd,
be
completely
speculating,
so
we
have,
I
can
say
at
this
point:
vendors
have
been
informally
who
have
not
reached
out
to
us
and
said:
hey
expect
a
10,
you
know
percent
increase
or
15,
or
something
like
that.
Sometimes
we
get
a
little
bit
of
that
sort
of
industry
intel.
We
have
not
at
this
point,
received
information
like
that.
So.
B
D
Is
this
the
time
where
we
would
discuss
where
I
would
make
a
suggestion
or
comment
about
one
of
these
numbers?
Changing
yes
and
I,
if
I'm
out
of
line
please
correct
me,
but
the
litter
management
is
a
pretty
big
issue
on
14th
avenue
and
I
know
we've
all
seen
it
and
we
know
that
it's
happening
pretty
intensely
between
4
4th
street
and
5th
street,
and
so
I
understand
about
the
pan
and
broom.
D
In
years
past,
however,
we
had
we
had
business
owners
who
were
more
visible
and
seem
to
be
more
conscientious
about
you
know,
keeping
up
the
sidewalks.
I
think
there's
also
a
certain
problem
that
we
have
a
situation
with
empty
buildings
and,
of
course,
the
street,
the
street
people,
but
last
night
I
almost
took
pictures.
It
was
it
was
I
mean
I
could
have.
It
was
just
it
was.
D
The
litter
was
just
intense
and
it
was
especially
intense
between
fourth
and
fifth,
I
mean
it
was
like
piles
of
paper,
and
I
don't
know
you
know
getting
trying
to
get
together
or
to
communicate
and
literally
try
to
enforce
the
other
owners
and
business
owners
to
participate.
D
I
I
don't
know
how
effective
I
could
be
as
a
business
owner.
You
know,
given
what
I'm
seeing
in
my
availability
of
time.
So
I'm
wondering
if
this
group
is
interested
in
maybe
increasing
some
of
the
street,
the
sidewalk
cleaning,
because
it's
it's
just
gross
and
with
the
kids
coming
back
to
school
and
the
parents
and
the
activities
that
we
all
want
to
see
that
we're
all
excited
about
I
mean
14th
avenue
is-
is
just
a
a
shame
and
a
pity
it.
Last
night
it
was
especially
bad
on
the
west
side.
D
I'm
sorry
the
east
side
pretty
much
starting
at
goldie's.
All
the
way
down
to
tcf,
which
is
piles
of
crap,
and
the
only
area
that
was
clean
was
in
front
of
blarney
and
the
rest
of
it
was
just
a
mess
and
it
wasn't
even
after
bar,
it
was
about
11
p.m.
When
I
left
so,
I
want
to
just
put
that
out
there,
I'm
sure
other
people
are
seeing.
I
know
randall's
seen
it,
and
I
know
some
of
you
aren't
on
14th,
but
what's
happening
after
9.
D
F
D
It
was
really
bad.
Last
night,
like
I
said
I
could
have
said
pictures.
I
take
a
lot
of
pictures
of
the
activity
because
I've
had
issues
there's
a
lot
of
people
loitering,
and
I
know
this
is
not
the
time
and
the
place
and
I'm
working
a
little
more
closely
with
you
know
randall
and
we
talked
to
the
city
and
we
talked
to
marcy
holmes
and
so
on
and
so
forth
about.
D
You
know
what
we
can
do
you
know
to
deal
with
our
security
issues,
but
frankly
I
haven't
had
any
robberies
or
break-ins
or
property
damage
except
one
broken
window,
and
but
what
I'm
seeing
on
the
street
is
just
absolutely
gross
and
I
think
it's
gone
kind
of
beyond
what
it
used
to
be
a
couple
years
ago.
You
know,
I
think,
the
last
time
we
had
a
meeting
with
irv.
You
know
herb
was
constantly
on
this
particular
topic,
and
you
know
he
did
a
little
more
daytime
policing
and
talking
to
other
property
owners.
D
But
right
now,
there's
very
few
of
us
that
are
actually
present
and
that
whole
stretch
of
14th
and
probably
as
I've
heard
you
know,
13th
is
bad
but
wow
it's
it's.
It's
very
depressing
and
I
think
it's
a
real
it's
a
bad
direction
and
I'm
certainly
willing
to
talk
to
people,
but
I
don't
think
that
I
can
actually
enforce
it
and
I
am
not
in
a
position
to
pay
my
staff
to
do
it.
Maybe
I'm
in
a
better
position
to
add
it
to
my
taxes.
D
You
know,
and
so
I'm
proposing
that
we
actually
consider
a
more
frequent
street
cleaning,
I'm
sorry
pan
and
broom,
and
I
don't
know
that
I
can
tell
us,
tell
this
group
how
to
implement
it,
but
it's
it
needs
to
be
more
frequent
than
it
is
right
now,
and
I
personally
would,
even
though
my
business
is
struggling,
this
seems
like
it's.
It's
do
it's
going
to
hurt
us.
D
I
think
the
students
will
still
come
to
dinkytown.
The
parents
will
still
come,
there'll
still
be
sports
events,
but
I
think
over
the
longer
hall
you
know
the
long
run.
The
long
term
we
all
know
dinky
town
is
getting
a
reputation,
that's
not
so
safe.
The
whole
neighborhood
is
still
I'm
sorry.
The
whole
city
is
not
feeling
very
safe.
So
I'm
not
saying
that
it's
just
us,
but
we
all
know
it's
not
the
same.
D
So
that's
something
I
would
propose
is
an
increase
to
the
pan
and
broom.
F
D
No,
I
agree
and
that's
why
me
looking
at
it
making
this
comment.
I
knew
it
was
like
you
know,
kind
of
it's
there's
a
big
gap
here
I
realize
that,
but
I
think
I
would
suggest
just
shooting
from
the
hip
that
once
a
week
would
be
better
than
two
times
a
month,
and
then
I
have
a
meeting
actually
with
my
the
neighborhood
organization
meeting
today.
D
Also
with
you
know,
we
are
now
part
of
the
dba
is
now
part
of
marcy
holmes
and
we're
all
meeting
today
with
the
other
group,
which
is
called
the
greater
dinkytown
initiative,
and
if
we
can
come
up
with
some
more
good
ideas,
I'm
certainly
going
to
work
on
that.
But
I
see
this
as
something
that
just
requires
a
few
more
dollars,
and
I
don't
you
know.
If
I
had
staff,
I
would
certainly
get
out
there
and
have
my
staff
do
the
whole
block
but,
as
we
all
know,
it's
hard
to
get
staff.
B
I
think
helpful
to
for
context,
stadium
village
does
once
a
week
pan
and
broom
march,
beginning
of
march
through
the
end
of
november.
In
some
cases
extends
that
into
december
and
then
drops
it
to
one
or
two
times
a
month
in
those
sort
of
deep
winter
months
and
then
picks
that
frequency
back
up
to
one
time
a
week
so
for
budgeting
purposes
they
they
budget
a
frequency
of
40
times
throughout
the
calendar
year
and
currently
in
this
draft
budget,
we're
budgeting
for
20
times.
B
B
So
it's
about
250.
Current
pricing
is
250
dollars
per
pan
and
brown
for
the
entire
district.
E
C
E
C
Public,
the
public
comment
is
not
right
now,
but
this
is
kent
with
raising
canes
and
I've
got
obviously
having
locations
in
stadium,
village
and
dinkytown
is
attacked,
but
I've
commented
on
this.
B
Yeah,
if
we
could
have
the
board,
discuss
it
and
then
allow
others
and
I'm
not
trying
to
quash
conversation.
I
just
we're
happy
to
to
reopen
the
conversation
it.
We
just
worry
about
the
board
being
able
to
get
everything.
It
needs
to
get
done
done.
B
Members,
thoughts
on
the
frequency
of
a
matching
stadium
village.
So
do
you
want
to
go
up
to
double
the
frequency
from
20
times
a
year
to
40
times
from
a
budgetary
perspective
and
jeff
to
your
question?
So
we
have
a
number
of
districts
that
do
once
a
week
pan
and
broom.
We
certainly
have
some
that
do
two
and
three
times
a
week
summer
months.
B
So
I
would
you
know,
while
recognizing
the
budget
impacts.
You
know
going
once
a
week,
at
least
in
those
non-winter
months
seems
like.
It
certainly
would
be
an
appropriate
sort
of
next
step,
and
it's
certainly
something
the
group
could
continue
to
evaluate
in
the
coming
years.
So
just
if
that's
helpful,
but
we
can
do
it
once
a
week
or
twice
a
week
I
mean
that's
a
service.
We
can
easily
adjust.
F
B
No
fine.
B
So
of
that,
eighty
thousand
five
thousand
of
that
is
in
your
budget
earmarked
for
pain
and
broom
service.
So
it
would
be
doubling
that
so
20
frequency,
a
frequency
of
20
times
throughout
the
year,
is
5
000
from
a
budgetary
perspective.
So
that
would
go
that
line
item
for
litter
management
in
order
to
go
to
40
times
a
year
from
a
budgetary
perspective
would
need
to
go
from
80
000
to
85
000
to
cover
that.
D
D
You
know
we
can
talk
about
it
at
the
meeting
I'm
having
today
with
my
colleagues,
you
know
if
there's
anything
we
can
do
in
terms
of
a
communication
with
other
business
owners.
You
know
that's
something.
I'm
willing
to
you
know,
step
up
and
I'm
sure
that
my
colleagues,
my
other
business
owners
who
might
be
guests
here
at
this
meeting,
would
do
the
same.
It's
just
we
need.
I
say:
let's
try
once
a
week,
I'm
not
sure
we
really
need
it
in
march.
I
heard
you
say
something
about
march.
D
B
Yeah
part
of
why
we
tend
to
start
with
march
some
marches
you're
right
are
are
quite
snowy
and
it
isn't
needed,
especially
with
the
remote
snow
removal
services,
that
the
disk
provides.
On
the
other
hand,
in
some
cases,
snow
really
starts
accumulation
tapers
off
in
march,
and
we're
kind
of
right
in
a
sort
of
spring
pedestrian
volumes,
or
at
least
we
start
to
get
there
so
that
that's
why
some
number
of
districts
start
in
march.
So
and
what
are
the
months
again?
Please!
Well,
let
me
be
clear
it
we
can.
B
You
can
be
whatever
you
want.
I
was
suggesting
from
a
budgetary
perspective.
You
go
from
20
pain
of
rooms
a
year
to
40..
That
might
be
an
easier
way
to
think
about
it,
and
then
we
can
adjust
the
you
know
whether
it's
starting
on
april
1
and
going
a
little
later
in
the
year
to
kind
of
coincide
with
the
with
the
football
season.
So
there's
a
couple
ways
to
do
it.
D
So
I
I
vote
for
the
increase.
A
B
Thoughts
on
increasing
the
the
the
litter
management
jeff
and
mark.
B
So
that
would
increase
the
draft
budget
from
196
000
to
201
000.
Are
there
I'll
come
back
to
a
question
I
I
have
after
we
conclude
the
2022
budget,
any
other
thoughts
on
2022,
I'm
hearing
consensus
on
there's
an
okay
to
increase
that
any
other
questions
comments
about
2022
budget.
B
Would
someone
like
to
make
a
motion
to
that?
The
advisory
board
recommends
adoption
of
the
2022
budget
and
work
plan
recommendation
as
amended.
F
I
make
a
movement
for
that
I'll
move
to
prove
it
as
amended
with
the
additional
litter
management.
B
Any
further
conversation
on
the
motion
to
adopt
the
budget
recommendation
as
amended
not,
I
will
call
the
the
role
so
again
board
members,
please
indicate
how
you'd
like
to
be
recorded.
As
voting
on
the
motion,
jeff
ashland.
A
A
B
Hey,
we
do
still
have
a
quorum
so
that
budget
recommendation
is
adopted
as
amended.
So
thank
you.
My
question
on
the
pan
and
broom
service
frequency
coming
back
to
2021.
We
do
have
the
ability
we
could
increase
that
frequency.
Now
you
would
be
spending
into
that
that
surplus,
but
you
do
have
resources
that
you
could
increase
that
pain
and
broom
frequency
to
weekly.
Now
this
year
we
could
turn
it
on
as
soon
as
next
week,
for
example,
thoughts
on
that
no
obligation
to.
B
I
just
want
to
make
sure
the
board
understands
you
have
the
option
of
it:
increasing
that
service
frequency
right
now.
B
All
right,
so
with
that
we
will
increase
pan
and
broom
services
to
one
time
per
week,
effective
next
week
any
preferences
on
how
long
to
continue
that.
Do
you
want
to
go
through
the
end
of
october,
the
end
of
november
or
the
end
of
the
year?
B
B
B
We
we
could
drop
back
down
to
the
two
per
month
that
have
been
were
originally
budgeted
this
year.
Okay,
we
wouldn't
drop
off,
it.
Would
okay,
it
wouldn't
stop.
It
would
just
go
from
effectively
four,
if
you
will
four
or
five
a
month
two
to
two
a
month,
so.
D
E
B
Okay,
we
will
do
that.
We
will
go
hearing
consensus.
We
will
increase
pan
and
broom
to
one
time
per
week
through
november
30th
of
this
year,
and
those
costs
will
be
reflected
in
that
in
the
final
2021
budget,
an
expense
report.
All
right
we
have
concluded.
The
main
items
of
the
budget
are
the
main
items
that
we
wanted
to
talk
about,
as
we
do
still
have
some
time.
So
we
can
reopen
the
public
comment
period.
B
If
that's
the
board's
wishes
before
we
do
that,
I
would
note
that
a
couple
of
board
administration
items
if
you
have
not
completed
your
online
ethics
training
course.
Please
do
so.
It
takes
20
to
30
minutes.
B
You
can
do
it
at
your
convenience.
So
it's
not
a
scheduled
time
piece
you
we
can
resend
you
the
link.
It
is
good
for
four
years
the
once
you
once
you
do
it.
So
if
we
could
ask
you,
if
you
haven't
done
it
yet
or
within
the
last
four
years,
please
jump
on
and
do
that
any
other
business.
The
group
would
like
to
discuss
and
any
concerns
with
reopening
the
public
comment
period.
F
B
Okay,
very
good.
Well,
thank
you
for
for
the
budget
recommendation
so
just
to
to
recap
all
prior
years
that
budget
recommendation
will
be
incorporated
into
a
proposed
operating
plan
for
2020
20
2022
that
will
be
mailed
to
all
contributing
properties
in
september,
along
with
the
public
hearing
notice
and
the
proposed
service
charge
amount
for
their
property
or
properties.
B
There
will
then
be
a
public
hearing
before
the
city,
council,
transportation
and
public
works
committee
that
will
occur
in
the
first
half
of
october
and
then
presuming
it
is
adopted
by
the
city
council.
We
would,
you
know,
commence
with
service
implementation
in
january,
just
like
we
have
every
year,
so
just
wanted
to
recap
that
that
process
of
what
occurs
after
this,
if
there's
nothing
else,
we
can
return
and
reopen
the
public
comment.
B
Thank
you
all
for
for
your
patience
and
allowing
the
board
to
to
get
through
it's
its
agenda.
Today,
randall.
I
believe
you
had
some
some
questions
happy
to
go
through
and
and
ken
happy
to
answer
any
questions
you
have
as
well,
and
anybody.
G
Else,
mike
just
quickly,
mine
was
like
on
the
graffiti
subject,
so
who
decides
who
walks
around
and
looks
for
graffiti?
Who
does
that?
How
does
it
get?
How
does
how
does
the
the
special
services
district
get
advised?
There's
graffiti
someplace
needs
to
be
removed.
B
Yeah,
so
what
we
do
is
the
we
have
the
an
ssd
streetscape
maintenance
contractor
who
is
tasked
with
going
through
the
district
on
a
set
frequency
and,
if
they
see
graffiti
and
which
is
twice
a
month
currently
twice
a
month,
that's
what
the
budget
has,
so
they
proactively
go
through
the
district
and
any
graffiti
that
is
in
the
public
right-of-way
again,
not
on
private
property
or
buildings
or
fencing
of
build
of
you
know
around
parking
lots
things
like
that.
B
But
if
it's
in
the
public
right-of-way,
the
contractor
is
responsible
for
abating
that
graffiti
at
the
time
they're
walking
through
the
district.
Another
way
sometimes
occurs
is
we
will
get
three
one
one
complaints,
but
that
is
infrequent,
usually
we're
removing
it
before
our
311
comment
comes
in.
G
B
If
it's
within
the
service,
district
and
and
visible
you
know
to
the
street,
it
is
a
service
that
the
service
system
can
incur
costs
to
provide
the
maintenance
of
it.
Is
you
know
it's?
The
bridge
itself
is
owned
by
mndot,
so
technically,
they're
responsible,
but
historically
the
service
district
has
said.
That's
a
cost.
It's
willing
to
infer.
G
So
the
fact
that
I
reported
this
two
weeks
ago,
when
they
do
it,
because
I
do
I
do
get
follow-up
emails.
If
they
got
it
on
the
schedule,
then
the
special
service
district
is
going
to
get
billed
for
it
is
that
right.
B
Not
necessarily
randall,
sometimes
so
graffiti
is
handled
by
multiple
divisions
within
the
city,
the
service
district.
We
have
an
approach
that
is
comprehensive
to
the
district.
Solid
waste
and
recycling
also
has
graffiti
abatement.
So
if
you
report
it
to
3-1-1
it,
if
it
didn't
come
to
us,
it
went
to
solid
waste
and
recycling.
In
that
case,
that
is
not
an
expense
to
the
district.
B
If
solid
waste
and
recycling
takes
on
that
task
and
issues
the
work
order,
it
is
done
just
as
part
of
the
the
regular
budget
and
solid
release
and
recycling
division.
Okay,.
G
Okay,
because
I've
done
that
more
than
once,
you
know.
Fortunately,
I
got
good
contacts
with
some
of
them.
I've
had
the
graffiti
taken
off
that
old
u.s
bank
building
about
five
times
so,
but
anyway,
the
other
one
was
street
lights.
I
was
just
kind
of.
A
G
B
Yes,
on
trees
that
have
ssd
power
to
them,
twinkle
lights
are
added
and
they're
replaced
once
a
year.
Yes,.
G
Well,
we
might
want
to
chat
with
those
folks
because
the
the
the
the
the
lights
in
front
of
my
place
as
far
as
I
can
tell
they're
there
all
year
round
and
and
I'm
I'm
not
real
complimentary
about
the
wires
hanging
down.
You
know
it
looks
kind
of
tacky.
So
just
might
be
something
if
we're,
if
we're
paying
a
contractor
to
do
that,
they
might
need
to
be
nudged.
A
little
bit
do
a
little
bit
better
job
and
then
the.
G
G
Well,
yeah,
I
mean
yeah
good.
G
B
B
I
appreciate
the
comment
we,
while
we
are
always
receptive
to
people
recommending
products
and
strategies
to
us.
The
service
district
experience
in
minneapolis
with
led
solar
powered,
solar
powered,
led
lights
on
trees
and
is
for
holiday.
Decor
is
left
most
districts
wanting
and
they've
abandoned
the
approach
because
it
does
not
provide
for
reliably
consistent
power
supply
when
people
want
the
lights
on
the
technology
just
hasn't.
G
B
B
B
G
G
G
Just
because
we
get
it
too,
but
we
pick
it
up,
you
know,
but
I
would
say
this.
I
would
ask
the
the
board
to
consider
you
sure
got
a
lot
of
gum
damage
on
your
sidewalks
down
there.
I
don't
hardly
have
any
of
them.
I
am
because
we
just
don't
allow
it
we
clean
it
off,
but
there
is
the
sidewalks
are
just
covered
with
gum.
You
know
and
don't
know
why
people
like
throwing
their
gum
on
the
sidewalk,
but
it's
just
an
observation.
I
have
to
concur
what
woodland
said
it
it.
G
C
A
G
B
So
so
the
on
the
the
district
has
had
a
com
just
so
everybody
is
clear
on
the
led
tree
lighting
conversation.
That
is
a
conversation
that
the
board
has
discussed
several
times
over
the
last
several
years
and
the
the
advice,
at
least
historically
from
the
advisory
board,
was
to
not
incur
the
cost
of
going
to
led.
B
So
that
is
not
a
city-imposed
decision.
In
fact,
we
have
several
districts
that
have
gone
led
for
their
their
tree
lighting.
So
I
just
want
everybody
to
understand
you,
you
do.
The
district
has
the
option
of
converting
to
led
tree
lighting,
and
we
you
know
given
enough
time
we
can.
That
is
something
we
can
implement
the
it
is
more
expensive
on
the
front
end,
but
it
needs
to
be
less
expensive
over
the
course
of
time,
because
we
can
get
multiple
seasons
typically
out
of
an
led
stringer.
B
We
did
do
a
pilot
on
fifth
street,
where
we
have
led
lights
on
a
couple
of
trees
to
to
see
how
it
worked
and
what
people
thought
of
the
the
lighting
quality.
So
it
is
something
the
district
based
on
prior
recommendations
have
suggested
I'll
describe
it
as
sort
of
tip-toeing
into
it,
but
it
is
in
the
past.
When
we've
had
the
conversation,
the
mainly
I
perceived
due
to
the
cost,
the
request
was
to
stay
with
incandescents.
B
I
just
want
everybody
to
be
clear
on
why
incandescents
continue
to
be
used
in
this
district
that
it's
likely
too
late
randall,
I
already
just
it
is
likely
too
late
in
the
year
to
order
leds
for
this
coming
season
based
on
the
quantities,
but
it
is
certainly
something
if
the
board
wanted
us
to
to
go
led
in
2022
with
that
replacement.
It's
certainly
something
we
could.
We
could
implement
so
just
again
for
board
discussion.
G
B
A
B
C
Yeah
I
just
had
two
things
I
wanted
to
put
in.
I
know
from
my
experience
in
city
and
village,
even
with
the
increased
kind
of
sweeping
of
the
neighborhood,
it's
still
the
trash
piles
up
really
fast.
I
know
that,
if
we're
not
out
there
daily,
it
turns
into
endurance,
it
gets
out
of
hand
pretty
quickly,
but
I
do
appreciate
the
increase
to
to
once
a
week.
That's
huge,
it's
a
big
one,
good
job
board
on
that
one
and
then
also
with
the
kind
of
all
the
security
issues.
C
I
was
surprised
there
was
no
conversation
about
the
installation
and
maintenance
of
an
area-wide
security
system
personnel,
somebody
that
walks
around
something
kind
of
in
that
manner.
If
I,
if
I
remember
correctly,
that
is,
there
is
a
provisioning
coordination
of
security
personnel
to
supplement
the
regular
city
personnel,
something
that
the
ssd
is
able
to
use
their
budgeting.
G
Right
mike
sorry,
I
do
have
one
last
question:
it
had
to
do
with
street
lights
because
when
can't
mention
it,
it
triggered
my
head
who's
supposed
to
paint
those
things
or
keep
them
up,
because
some
of
them
look
really
rough
right
now,.
B
So
that
is
the
traffic
divisions.
The
primary
responsible
party
is
the
traffic
division
within
public
works
and
they
have
a
sort
of
a
as
as
we
understand
it,
they
have
sort
of
a
multi-year
plan,
as
funds
are
available
through
and
re
sort
of
refurbish
streetlight
poles.
B
A
G
My
my
question
was
spurred
by
the
fact
when
I
was
walking
in
front
of
blarney's
the
other
day.
I
noticed
that
there's
a
couple
of
temporary
lights
there
they're
stuck
in
concrete
bases
sitting
on
the
sidewalk,
and
I
was
right
next
to
it-
was
one
of
the
original
street
lights,
which
was
looked
like
about
ready
to
fall
over.
I
was
just
kind
of
curious
what
was
going.
G
G
G
B
So
so
yeah
again
traffic
division
would
be
the
responsible
party.
The
you
know,
those
lights
do
go
back
to
the
mid
90s,
the
low-level
lighting.
That's
when
the
enhanced
streets,
the
existing
enhanced
streetscape,
was
put
in
place
for
the
information
we
have,
so
that
you
know
I
mean
that
all
could
be
a
service
district
cost
based
on
the
dollars
involved.
B
B
That's
going
to
be
occurring
on
the
mcdonald's,
the
liquor
store
and
the
the
strip
mall
block,
so
I'm
completely
speculating
here,
but
that
may
be
why
some
of
that
temporary
light
pole,
light
bulb
items
are
out
there
randall,
but
just
a
total
guess.
I
don't
know
for
certain.
C
G
B
One
thing
to
note:
I
we
will
reach
out
to
the
streetscape
vendor.
We
do
periodically
in
the
summer,
go
through
the
district
and
adjust
any
tree
lighting
as
necessary.
So
we've
made
a
note
and
we'll
contact
the
vendor
in
case
there
are
any
adjustments
that
need
to
be
made
to
the
tree
lighting,
that's
something
we
do
anyways,
but
we'll
just
make
sure
it
happens
in
the
next
couple
weeks.
G
B
Yeah
we,
the
the
all
our
vendors,
are,
instructed
to
receive
information,
but
not
to
implement
in
any
information
from
the
field.
We
do
that
to
protect
the
cost
to
the
district.
So
by
far
whether
it's
anybody
on
this
call
or
anybody
else
in
the
in
the
community,
please
direct
any
comments
to
andy
david
and
myself.
Any
of
us
were
all
available,
email
call,
texts
all
are
sufficient
and
we
will
direct
the
the
right
vendor,
assuming
it's
a
service
district
item,
to
take
care
of
it.
B
Anything
else
all
right
hearing,
none.
I
think
we
can
adjourn
this
meeting
appreciate
everyone's
time.
B
We
will
no
meeting
is
set
for
the
at
this
point
for
the
next
meeting,
but
we
can
please
know
that,
as
I
just
said,
we
are
always
available
and
frequently
in
the
district.
So,
if
they're,
if
any
issues
pop
up,
we
can
take
care
of
them
and
brian.
We
will
certainly
work
with
with
you
and
your
staff
offline
to
see
if
we
can
implement
that
tree
lighting
partnership
on
the
west
side
of
of
13th
either
for
this
comings
or
something
next
with
that,
thank
you.
B
Everyone
enjoy
your
summer
and
we'll
be
in
touch.
Let
us
know
if
anything,
pops
up
in
the
meantime.
