A
Already
welcome
to
the
september
9
2021
meeting
of
the
minneapolis
transgender
equity
council.
This
meeting
includes
remote
participation
of
members
as
authorized
under
minnesota
statutes,
section
13
d
.021
due
to
the
declared
local
health
pandemic.
The
city
will
be
recording
and
posting
this
meeting
to
the
city's
website
and
youtube
channel
as
a
means
of
increasing
public
access
and
transparency
board
meetings
are
public
and
subject
to
the
minnesota
open
meeting
law.
I
will
now
call
this
meeting
to
order
and
call
the
role,
so
we
may
verify
the
presence
of
a
quorum.

The
mayor
vetoed
that
one
so
that
one
will
not
be
on
the
ballot,
but
the
city
council
designed
rent
control
amendment
will
be
on
the
ballot
and
then
the
other
charter.
Amendment
update-
and
this
is
the
only
other
update
I
have
on
your
recommendations-
is
that
the
charter
amendment
to
replace
the
police
department
with
the
department
of
public
safety
was
approved
to
be
on
the
november
ballot
and
the
ballot
language
was
finalized.
The
council
members
had
written
a
similar
amendment.
A
They
withdrew
it
a
judge,
then
throughout
the
ballot
language
and
then
council
had
an
emergency
meeting
this
past
tuesday
and
the
ballot
language
was
refinalized,
and
so
there
is
now
once
again
ballot
language,
malaysia,
as
a
consulate.
If
I
summarized
any
of
that
incorrectly,
please
jump
in
and
correct
me.
A
B
A
A
A
project
where
an
intern
would
develop
a
like
resource
list
of
resources
for
trans
and
gnc
residents.
So
I
think
those
are
the
biggest
edits
that
the
policy
subcommittee
made
at
the
last
meeting.
I'm
curious.
If
anyone
from
policy
wants
to
speak
any
more
to
what
is
in
those
recommendations
for
anyone
to
know
about
before,
folks,
ask
questions
and
you
all
take
a
vote
on
moving
them
forward.
B
I
can
go
through
really
quick
kind
of
summarize
it's
a
very
similar
format
to
our
recent
recommendations
in
march,
so
we
do
have
a
housing
section,
but
surprisingly,
it's
a
lot
smaller,
because
a
lot
of
things
are
moving
forward.
So
we're
still
gonna
recommend,
recommend
that
city
council
adopt
the
tenant
opportunity
to
purchase
and
we're
asking
for
more
trans-pacific
housing
and
doing
more
work
on
the
property
owner
training
and
I'm
seeing
that
track
has
some
notes
here
of
just
about
logistics.
B
B
B
Asking
hr
to
expand
advertising
strategies
for
gender
inclusivity,
training
asking
for
more
money
to
support
more
lgbtq
competency
trainings,
as
well
as
adding
a
like
level
up,
lgbtq
competency,
training
for
providers.
Then
we
have
a
bathroom
section.
Unfortunately,
still,
let's
see
we
want
to
get
some.
B
Oh
we're
trying
to
figure
out
how
we
can
recommend
all
gender
bathroom
construction
on
new
builds,
and
I
know
the
language
here
is
very
specific
because
of
public
works,
things
that
I
don't
understand
and
then
last
we
have
our
role
of
appointed
boards
and
that's
just
we'd
like
a
list
to
serve
so
we
can
more
efficiently
communicate
with
other
people.
That's
my
summary.
A
I
I
I
Okay,
that
too,
but
just
like,
in
the
recommendations
just
to
provide
like
more
like
detail
and
like
specific
examples.
Just
because
I
didn't
want
y'all
to
give
examples
or
you
ought
to
give
recommendation
and
then
it's
flushed
out
by
other
people.
So
I
was
thinking
like
of
how
things
can
be
like
more
concrete
in
a
way
of
like
it's
not
up
to
like
other
people's
representation.
It's
like
what
the
ask
is.
A
Response
teams
is
one
where
your
language
just
says
more
funding
for
right
now,
but
we're
trying
to
see
if
there's
anything
more
specific,
so
knowing
that
the
like
coaches
would
be
presenting
them
before
the
next
tec
meeting.
You
all
just
kind
of
need
to
take
a
vote.
That's
a
like!
We
vote
to
have
the
co-chairs
present
these
recommendations
with
the
like.
A
You
know
few
details
that
we're
still
planning
on
adding
that
are
marked
in
the
recommendations
already,
since
this
is
technically
not
a
fully
final
document,
but
it's
fine
for
you
to
vote
on
it
in
the
form
that
exists.
So
that's
the
technicality
and,
if
folks,
do
feel
good
moving
forward.
That's
just
kind
of
that
is
what
I
would
recommend
voting
on.
Logistically.
C
B
A
A
C
A
H
H
F
A
There
are
nine
in
favor,
none
opposed
and
three
absent.
The
motion
passes
and
kenzie
and
hunter
will
be
presenting
these
recommendations
on
the
22nd,
which,
if
you
want
to
watch
them
present
to
council,
please
do
they
killed
it.
Last
time,
they're
going
to
be
great
again
this
time
we're
going
to
have
fewer
tech
issues
this
time
it's
a
real
plan.
A
Essentially
so
I
will
keep
you
posted
on
where
all
of
that
is
going,
but
just
wanted
to
give
a
heads
up
as
we
are
really
low
on
staffing
in
our
office
and
also
kind
of
just
included
in.
That
is
a
like
apology
in
advance
for
anything,
I'm
dropping,
because
it's
a
month
before
the
summit
and
there's
two
of
us
in
the
office.
So
I
know
I'm
dropping
things
and
with
that
I
will
pass
it
to
kenzie
to
talk
about
summit
stuff
a
little
bit
so.
J
D
We
are
presenting
a
workshop
right
now
on
civic
engagement,
objectively,
pretty
boring
topic,
but
hopefully
the
two
of
us
can
jazz
it
up
a
bit.
It's
gonna
be
virtual
and
it
is
still
in
motion,
but
basically
trying
to
keep
it
to
an
hour
presentation.
It's
supposed
to
be
a
resource
for
folks
who
want
to
get
more
involved
politically,
but
also
we're
going
to
talk
briefly
about
other
ways
to
support
your
community.
J
So
I
think
one
one
thing
I
want
to
make
sure
you're
all
finished
here
so
for
our
presentation
for
the
workshop,
I
do
want
to
make
sure
to
just
really
encourage
people.
You
know
when
they
come
into
it.
If
they're
wanting
to
know
more
about
the
tc,
what
we're
doing
and
then
you
know
also,
I
think
so
far-
we've
really
sometimes
people
will
know
about.
J
Some
people
will
go
into
one
setting
and
people
will
have
no
idea
what
tec
the
tc
is
and
then
you
go
into
another
setting
and
people
are
familiar
with
our
work,
so
we
want
to
make
sure
that
people
leave
feeling
some
excitement
about
it.
If
maybe
yes,
it
could
seem
a
little
boring,
but
I
think
I
know
that
we're
going
to
figure
out
a
way
to
make
it
really
exciting.
Even
though
we
only
have
you
know
an
hour,
but
I'm
I'm
excited
that
we
can.
We
can
make
it
interesting.
A
I
would
just
say
I'm
curious
if
there's
anything
that
anyone
here
wants
to
see
as
a
part
of
this
presentation
that
billy
and
hunter
haven't
already
named
either
like
things
you
know,
folks
have
questions
about.
That
would
be
good
for
them
to
cover
ways
to
approach
particular
topics
or
anything
else.
D
A
D
J
Yeah,
I
agree
with
that
too.
I
want
to
make
sure
that
you
all
feel
comfortable,
adding
some
feedback
too,
and
then
that
will
also
help
us
the
more
that
we
get
done
ahead
of
time.
Then
the
nice
thing
is
we'll
be
able
to
make
sure
we
send
that
into
the
interpreters
that
we're
going
to
be
having
for
our
workshop,
just
so
that
that
it's
clear
for
them
as
well,
so
since
they'll
be
interpreting
for
us,
but
definitely
make
sure
to
add
some
points.
A
Wait
if
no
one
else
has
anything
on
that
immediately.
The
other
two
summit
pieces,
one
was
a
great
suggestion
from
malaysia.
Thank
you
that,
hopefully
more
council
members
would
take
action
on
your
recommendations
if
they
recognized
that
it
was
coming
from
asks
from
folks
in
their
ward
that
they
do
have
a
number
of
trans
constituents
honestly,
particularly
because
this
is
an
election
year
for
folks
who
are
running
for
reelection.
That's
probably
particularly
impactful.
A
We
don't
have
any
sort
of
demographic
data
that
captures
that
right
now,
but
if
we
wanted
to
try
to
get
a
little
bit
immediately
on
the
post
summit
survey
that
we
send
out
to
attendees
to
get
some
feedback
on
how
the
summit
was.
We
could
totally
ask
folks
words
when
we
had
the
summit
in
person.
We
got
a
ton
of
responses
because
we
just
collected
it
from
people
at
the
door
as
they
left
virtually.
I
Track
just
one
thing
that
I
just
thought
about:
I
see
a
lot
of
people
that,
like
don't
know
which
word
they
live
in.
So
I'm
wondering
if
you
can
include
the
survey
of
like
the
link
or
like
just
simple
directions
of
like
here's,
how
to
find
it.
So
they
know
because
I
feel
like
if
they
don't
they're,
just
gonna
skip
the
question.
A
A
Sweet
and
then
the
other
summit
question
I
had
for
you
all
and
billy.
I
owe
you
an
email
on
this
exact
topic
is.
I
know
we
discussed
at
the
beginning
of
summit
planning
that
the
tec
could
table
at
the
resource
fair,
either
virtually
in
person.
If
you
all
wanted
to
just
kind
of
give
folks
more
of
a
heads
up
about
what
it
is
and
how
to
get
involved
and
billy
did
the
work
of
signing
you
all
up
originally.
A
But
we
never
actually
move
forward
on.
Like
do
folks
have
the
capacity
to
table
what
materials
do
you
want
at
your
table
and
since
we
do
actually
need
to
figure
that
out
now
wanted
to
throw
that
out
to
get
a
sense
of
in-person
tabling,
would
be
sunday
night
october
3rd
and
looks
exactly
what
you
think
of
in-person.
A
Tabling
look
like
looking
like
virtual
tabling
would
be
monday
afternoon
october
4th
and
is
essentially
being
available
at
a
device
in
case
someone
in
our
like
virtual
reality,
career
and
resource
fair
platform,
either
ims
you
or
wants
to
call
you
with
questions,
but
is
less
of
a
like
your
like
it's
not
even
sitting
in
an
open,
zoom
room.
You
don't
have
to
like
sit
in
a
call
that
people
could
pop
into
you
just
have
to
be
able
to
answer
things
if
they
get
sent
your
way.
A
So
with
that
kind
of
context,
on
timing
and
format
and
the
tec
could
do
either
or
both
we're
giving
people
the
option
to
table
the
way
they
feel
most
comfortable.
I'm
curious.
If
anyone
has
opinions
on
whether
the
tec
tables
knows
they
have
capacity
at
those
times
themselves
to
table,
has
thoughts
on
what
materials
they
want
out,
etc.
D
J
C
A
J
A
If
not,
we
have
got
it
covered
with
billy
in
may.
So
that's
perfect.
I
will
send
you
both
the
logistical
information
and
just
get
your
add
your
emails
to
the
wow.
Sorry
train
of
thought.
The
person
from
minneapolis
employment
and
training
who's
setting
up
our
virtual
reality
platform
is
going
to
be
reaching
out
to
everyone
who's,
doing
virtual
tabling
to
kind
of
like
let
them
know
how
the
platform
works
and
give
them
an
opportunity
to
set
up
their
booth
because
you'll
be
able
to
just
like
create
your
little
virtual
reality
booth.
A
A
A
H
A
G
G
I
believe,
and
it's
been
kind
of
a
crazy
wild
ride,
I'm
sure,
as
it
has
been
for
everyone
over
the
last
year
and
a
half,
but
I'm
actually
going
to
be
moving
to
los
angeles,
and
so
I
will
no
longer
be
able
to
be
an
official
member
of
the
tec,
but
I
I
really
do
hope
to
continue
to
like
volunteer
and
also
to
get
involved.
Obviously,
in
movement
work
out
there.
G
G
Actually
so
it's
happening
quickly,
but
it's
also
been
in
the
works
for
quite
some
time,
and
I
just
wanted
to
thank
all
of
you,
members
present
and
past
that
are
aren't
here
for
like
this
incredible
opportunity
to
be
able
to
grow
and
show
up
in
this
way
and
to
do
this
work
with
such
a
passionate
and
amazing
group
of
people,
and
it's
just
been
a
real
honor
and
a
real
high
point
over
the
last
few
years.
For
me.
G
A
A
K
A
K
H
A
We
are
going
to
miss
you
and
also
wanted
to
give
an
update
that
unfortunately,
casey
couldn't
give,
because
we
didn't
meet
last
month,
but
z
recently
left
minneapolis
public
schools
to
start
a
grad
school
program
and
so
had
to
step
down
from
the
mpsc,
and
we
are
gonna
have
a
new
appointee
from
mps
who
will
hopefully
be
able
to
join
as
soon
as
next
month.
Who
will
introduce
themselves
to
you
all
when
they
are
able
to
join,
but
just
wanted
to
give
you
that
update
as
well.
A
I
guess
through
me,
since
it
didn't
manage
to
happen
in
an
actual
meeting
and
also
to
update
that,
sadly
with
emma
stepping
down
and
then
with
one
or
two
seats
that
were
already
open.
There
are
some
vacancies
on
the
tec
right
now
and
applications
open,
which
feels
like
a
very
like
weirdly
logistical
thing
to
say
right
after
being
like
emma,
will
miss
you
but
like
it's
all
yeah
all
of
the
things
fell
under
membership
updates
on
the
agenda
and
are
next
to
each
other,
which
is
partially
my
own
fault.
A
H
E
A
Totally
there
is
a
minneapolis
residency
requirement,
but
it
can
be
waived,
and
so,
if
the
strongest
applicants,
or
particularly
like
applicants
who
bring
experience
that
nobody
else
brings
are
from
outside
of
minneapolis.
Historically
the
council,
members
and
or
mayor
who
are
selecting
them
have
sometimes
waived
that.
So
definitely
it
feels
important
to
give
people
that
context,
but
definitely
if
you
think
they'd
be
great,
still
encourage
them
to
apply,
because
it's
not
a
hard.
No.
A
Sweet
and
I
have
been
sending
those
out
in
the
raceequity
newsletter
and
the
tec
newsletter
and
put
it
on
our
offices,
facebook
page,
but
would
really
encourage
you
to
also
like
throw
it
in
facebook
groups,
send
it
out
through
other
avenues,
you're
in
unless
we
get
a
ton
of
applicants
real
soon.
We
will
probably
extend
the
deadline
one
month
so
that
we
can
advertise
it
at
the
summit,
which
will
helpful,
help
reach
many
more
people.
A
K
A
Awesome
well,
that
was
all
we
had
before
our
presentations.
Our
first
presenter
appears
to
be
running
late.
I
haven't
heard
from
her,
but
our
second
presenter
will
be
able
to
jump
on
by
6
10
she's
gonna
rush
to
join
a
little
oh
oop,
our
first
presenter
just
lost
the
link,
hang
on,
I'm
gonna
stop
talking
and
email
her.
The
link
and
she'll
be
here
in
a
minute
or
two
and
then
we'll
get
started,
grab
a
drink
of
water.
Do
what
you
need
to
do.
A
J
J
L
Okay,
wonderful!
Well!
Thank
you
for
having
me
my
name
is
amelia
kruever
again,
I'm
the
budget
director
for
the
city
of
minneapolis.
I
use
she
her
pronouns,
and
this
is
the
first
time
I've
been
invited
this
committee,
so
I'm
hoping
to
give
you
guys
an
overview
of
the
budget
process
and
highlight
specifically
places
where
folks
can
get
involved
and
then
answer
any
questions
that
this
group
has
so
I'll
just
start
with
the
annual
budget
cycle.
So
at
the
city
of
minneapolis
we
do
an
annual
budget.
L
So
we
start
the
budget
process
in
usually
march
or
april,
where
we
work
with
departments
to
set
what
we
call
the
current
service
level
budget,
and
so
the
current
service
level
budget
is
really
our
starting
place
where
we
take
all
of
the
approved
programs
and
the
ftes
from
the
year
before
and
push
them
forward
into
the
next
year.
So
in
minneapolis,
rather
than
hold
steady
personnel
costs,
we
increase
them
each
year,
depending
on
the
known
cost
increases.
L
L
So
that
pays
for
things
like
materials
used
to
be
a
lot
of
travel
and
training,
not
so
much
in
the
last
couple
of
years
and
then
contracts
and
those
we
hold
steady
and
don't
inflate
year
to
year.
So
we
do
that
work.
We
work
with
departments
to
make
sure
that
we're
understanding
their
budgets.
We
have
the
right
roster
of
ftes
and
ultimately
getting
to
a
really
accurate
cost
for
expenditures.
L
L
L
L
L
Any
this
year
it's
been
focused
a
lot
on
of
the
cuts
that
had
to
be
made
in
2021.
What's
the
most
important
thing
to
bring
back
into
their
budgets
and
just
any
other
priorities
that
the
departments
are
working
on,
they
put
forward
proposals,
those
all
go
to
the
mayor
and
the
mayor
uses
information
about
our
base
budget
and
then
the
change
item
requests
from
department
to
make
his
budget
recommendation
and
so
by
city
charter.
That
needs
to
be
out
by
august
13th
every
year.
L
L
I
think
for
for
the
mayor's
budget
for
any
kind
of
new
proposal
or
modified
proposal
or
increase
to
a
current
program.
Those
usually
come
through
the
departments
that
implement
them,
and
so
we
we
rely
on
department.
Heads
to
you
know,
really
know
the
work
that
they're
doing
work
with
their
subject
matter.
L
In
that
process
we
asked
departments-
I
should
say
in
2019,
at
the
very
end
of
2019,
we
started
working
on
adding
a
racial
equity
analysis
portion
to
those
proposals
that
we
get
from
departments.
So
this
will
now
be
year.
Two,
where
departments
are
getting
asked,
questions
about
what
communities
are
being
most
impacted
by
this
change
item.
What
data
do
you
have
that
tells
you
how
you
know
existing
racial
disparities
will
be
impacted
by
this
change
and
so
we're
so
we're
starting
to
sort
of
build
a
routine
and
practice
around
asking
those
questions.
L
Some
departments
have
analyst
teams
and
some
departments
have
five
people.
So
that's
something
we're
working
at
the
city
to
sort
of
help
build
capacity
around
that.
So
so
that
gets
us
to
the
mayor's
budget.
Mayor
releases,
his
budget,
but
by
august
15th,
and
then
we
truly
transition
to
the
may
or
the
council
phase
so
starting
on
monday,
the
budget
committee
will
get
started
back
up
at
council.
L
So
that'll
start
with
a
budget
overview,
then
starting
the
next
week,
we'll
hear
from
each
department
head,
usually
mostly
for
the
month
of
october.
Every
week,
sometimes
twice
a
week.
The
budget
committee
will
meet
and
hear
from
department
heads
to
talk
about
their
base
budget,
how
they're
currently
deploying
their
resources
and
what
change
items
they
have
included
in
the
mayor's
budget,
and
so
their
departments
will
talk
about
their
goals,
their
priorities
and
then
how
these
new
programs,
or
or
sometimes
backfilling
for
cuts
that
happened
last
year
will
fit
into
that
vision
for
their
department.
L
L
Where
they've
heard
from
the
mayor
what
the
overall
levy
should
look
like,
and
then
they
will
have
a
a
public
hearing.
I
believe
it's
on
the
23rd,
but
I
will
get
you
the
exact
date
just
hearing
about
the
overall
level
of
how
much
we
should
increase
the
levy
by,
and
so
the
mayor
has
proposed
a
5.45
percentage
increase
in
the
levy
this
year
and
they
will
vote
on
that
max
levy
and
typically
it's
either
up
or
down
what
the
mayor
has
proposed.
L
L
To
hear
from
folks
about
the
mayor's
proposed
budget
and
then
at
the
very
beginning
of
december
we
start
what's
called
the
markup
process,
and
so
that
is
where
council
members
bring
amendments
to
the
mayor's
budget.
So
they
may
say
they
may
not
support
one
of
his
change
items.
They
may
want
to
move
money
from
one
area
to
another.
They
may
want
to
propose
new
programs
and
use
money
by
eliminating
old
programs
to
fund
it.
Things
like
that.
J
J
I
want
to
say:
is
that
right
that
that's
when
it's
open
for
public
discussion,
I
kind
of
want
just
to
clear
up
about
the
date
and
then
my
second
question
is
for
with
covid
happening.
Has
that
had
have
you
noticed
more
grander
effects
on
the
budget
and,
if
that's
impacting
you
know
even
going
into
this
year,
is
that
meaning
that
we're
going
to
have
more
budget
cuts?
And
if
so,
are
you
are
you
already,
knowing
kind
of
where
some
of
those
cuts
are
going
to
happen?
Do
you
know
anything
in
depth
about
that.
L
L
That's
just
downtown,
and
so
you
can
imagine
with
people
not
going
to
work
downtown
with
events
at
us
bank
stadium
and
the
twin
stadium
and
all
the
other
big
venues
downtown
being
essentially
closed
for
a
year
and
a
half.
That's
had
a
huge
impact
and
our
sales
taxes
have
gone
down
by
about
50
percent
and
stayed
that
way
for
20
to
21..
L
We
are
expecting
them
to
grow,
grow
by
a
significant
amount
into
22,
but
not
to
reach
pre-pandemic
levels.
So
that's
had
a
big
impact
on
our
budget.
The
other
thing
is
just
regular.
Business
licenses
also
have
taken
a
hit,
and
it's
difficult
in
minneapolis
to
disentangle
the
impacts
of
the
pandemic
and
then
the
additional
problems
that
small
businesses
have
had
after
the
unrest
of
last
summer,
where
some
have
struggled
to
get
some
of
the
aid
that
was
due
to
them.
L
L
But
when
we
were
signed
when
we
were
finalizing
the
21
budget
at
the
very
end
of
2020-
and
we
didn't
really
know
who
the
president
was
gonna,
be
things
looked
different.
Now
that
we
have
passed
the
american
rescue
plan
act,
that
has
dramatically
changed
our
outlook
for
our
budget.
So
one
of
the
four
priorities
or
one
of
the
objective
for
objectives
of
the
legislation
is
to
fund
general
government
services
as
revenue
replacement
and
so
in
minneapolis.
L
So
the
american
rescue
plan
act
is
a
big
deal
for
minneapolis
and
I'll
talk
a
little
bit
about
sort
of
what
has
happened
in
on
july,
2nd.
The
city
council
passed
the
first
round
of
appropriations
for
the
american
rescue
plan
act
and
that
included
102
million
dollars
of
our
allocation.
Our
total
allocation
is
271
million,
so
with
the
remaining
dollars,
the
the
work
that
we've
had
to
do
is
figure
out
how
much?
How
much
is
the
appropriate
amount
of
arp
dollars
to
use
to
replace
revenues?
L
And
the
reason
that's
really
tricky
is
because
a
lot
of
the
cuts
that
were
made
were
made
to
our
ongoing
spending,
which
is
usually
supporting
staff
right
costs.
That
we
know
will
be
there
year
and
year
out,
using
one-time
dollars
to
support
an
ongoing
cost
is
generally
not
a
good
idea,
and
so
in
this
situation
we
really
tried
to
look
at
a
five-year
outlook
for
revenues
so
that
we
could
think
about
where
we
expect
to
be
when
things
return
to
whatever
new
normal.
L
So
we've
done
a
lot
of
work
looking
at
not
just
next
year's
revenue,
but
the
five-year
revenue
outlook,
and
so
our
the
mayor's
budget.
This
year
includes
119
million
dollars
of
revenue
replacement
using
arp
dollars
and
that's
over
three
years
so
that
we
can
have
sort
of
a
slow
lead
up
to
transitioning
on
to
the
general
fund
levy
again
in
2025
when
those
one-time
resources
go
away.
L
J
F
A
A
But
I'm
curious
if
you
have
any
perspective
on
like
how
can
appointed
boards
get
into
those
conversations
between
departments
and
the
budget
office
earlier
in
the
year,
since
that's
not
yeah
that
appointed
boards
are
not
actually
directly
inserted
in
this
process
at
any
point
in
the
year.
So
what's
the
best
way
to
become
a
part
of
the
department
conversations.
F
L
L
L
I
This
is
malaysia,
hi
amelia.
I
just
had
a
question,
so
that
sounds
more
of
like
logistics,
wise
of
how
to
like
get
involved
in
the
conversation.
Do
you
have
like
like
a
time
line
of
like
when,
like
which,
month
or
just
because
it
usually
happens
towards,
like
the
end
of
the
year
of
those
conversations.
L
Yep
this
is
amelia
and
I
think
if
your
aim
is
to
be
a
part
or
to
influence
what
a
department
is
asking
for
in
the
mayor's
budget,
then
getting
involved
earlier
in
the
year
like
in
the
february
march
april.
Time
frame
is
the
best
part
after
the
mayor's
budget
is
public,
then
the
sort
of
next
phase
is
really
focused
on
council
members,
and
so
that's
where
public
testimony
at
city,
council
meetings
and
working
and
advocating
with
council
members
directly
is
the
is
the
route
to
go,
and
that's
that
november
december
time
frame.
L
I
know
there
will
be
there's
an
intention
to
do
more
outreach
in
this
round,
but
no
hard
and
fast
plans.
Yet
we
are
also
working
on
a
form
that
folks
can
fill
out
to
submit
project
ideas
for
round
two,
and
that
should
be
up
either
late
late.
This
late
this
week,
which
I
guess
just
leaves
tomorrow
these
short
weeks,
throw
me
off
or
early
next
week,
and
so
those
are
sort
of
the
two
main
methods
for
collecting
public
feedback
in
the
mayor's
phase.
A
This
is
track.
Does
anyone
else
have
any
questions
for
amelia
and
amelia
yeah?
If
you
send
me
those
links,
you
mentioned
anything
you
were
going
to
send
out.
I
can
include
those
in
the
minutes
which
goes
both
up
online
and
to
the
so
that'll
be
perfect
and
seriously.
There
are
no
silly
questions.
I
know
the
budget
can
be
a
complex
process.
So
please
ask
anything:
you're
wondering.
L
A
K
I
just
want
to
make
sure
the
interpreter
could
find
her
mute
button.
So
for
the
next
presentation
I
know
we
talked
a
lot
about
budgeting
and
I
just
want
to
say
again
any
questions.
Please
don't
hesitate
to
reach
out
to
amelia.
That
was
a
lot
and
it's
a
really
interesting
process.
So,
thank
you
again
so
back
to
this
final
presentation,
I
want
to
introduce
miss
riva
to
spirit
fondly
or
excuse
me,
reba
de
nova,
fondly
known
with
her
community
as
miss
riva
to
spirit
elder,
so
take
it
away.
M
We
think
that
would
be
awesome
and
let
me
look
at
my
note
here:
real
quick
and
also
you
know
kind
of
some
updated
cultural
training
within
hennepin
county
there's,
a
lot
of
programs
and
stuff
that
are
kind
of
like
have
outdated
training
and
since
the
pandemic
and
things
there's
a
lot
of
things
that
are
kind
of
changed
and
the
way
ceremonies
are
conducted
and
home
visits
and
things
so
yeah.
It's
just
a
big
ball
of
things
that
we
just
kind
of
want
to
discuss.
M
K
This
is
hunter
hello,
so
I
just
have
a
quick
question
for
you.
So
can
you
tell
me
a
little
bit
more
about
the
training
that
you're
thinking
about?
Are
you
thinking
about
specifically
related
to
this
two-spirit
community,
and
I
correct
me
or
if
I'm
you
know
saying
anything
wrong:
please
do
you
think
that
it's
about
folks
and
how
they
interact
with
people
that
are
two-spirited
or
can
you
just
tell
me
a
little
bit
more
about
that
training
or
you
know
yeah?
What
are
you
think
again.
M
Sure,
thank
you
hunter.
That's
a
great
question,
some
of
the
trainings
that
I've
been
involved
with
with
hennepin
county.
We
did
this
great
training
with
the
equal
department
about
being
two-spirited
our
roles
in
the
community
from
coming
from
a
place
of
honor
and
brought
to
a
place
of
shame
due
to
colonization
and
then
now
finding
our
way
back
into
the
circle
coming
back
into
that
place
of
honor.
Well,
that's
kind
of
what
we're
looking
at
hunter
kind.
You
know
kind
of
like
kind
of
opening
eyes
again.
M
D
This
is
billy,
and
forgive
me
also,
if
I
say
anything
wrong
or
get
anything
incorrect
in
terms
of
this
training.
How
would
you
under
what
I
guess
umbrella?
Would
you
like
this
training
to
be
included
because
you're
saying
that
two
spirit
is
kind
of
separate
from
lgbt
issues
or
it's
got
more
of
a
cultural
undertone?
D
M
M
If
you
don't
mind
me
sharing,
you
know,
there's
a
little
tiny
piece
like
last
year
when
track
invited
me
to
do
the
opening
blessing
and
land
acknowledgement
for
the
for
the
summit.
I
let
track
know
well
in
our
community
when
track
asked
me
that
question
that
that
they
should
present
me
with
with
the
gift.
You
know
just
a
small
gift.
You
know
it
doesn't
have
to
be
anything
enormous
or
anything.
M
So
that's
one
of
our
little
cultural
things
that
we
that
we've
kind
of
re-adopted
and
kind
of
getting
things
back
into
place,
just
little
small
cultural
things
like
that,
to
kind
of
refirm
ourselves
back
into
our
place
in
the
circle
and
be
open
to
other
to
our
other
gblt
community
members
and
share
with
them.
You
know
our
way
as
we've
learned
from
them.
A
The
spot,
no,
no
you're
good.
This
is
track.
I
actually
have
a
kind
of
related
question,
because
I
know
that
most
of
the
trainings
that
are
like
cultural
competency
in
some
way
at
the
city
are
coordinated
by
neighborhood
and
community
relations,
which
is
also
the
department
that
has
every
I'm
trying
to
remember
what
they're
actually
called.
I
want
to
say.
A
If
you
were
thinking
about
something
similar
to
that
role,
kind
of
within
that
department,
or
something
more
policy
focused
like
on
the
tec.
If
you
had
a
sense
of
like-
and
this
may
be
too
specific
of
a
question
but
like
what
you
would
want
that
liaison
doing,
and
therefore
like
where,
where
within
any
of
this
work,
it
would
be
most
useful
for
them
to
be.
M
A
M
A
M
Hi
again,
this
is
riva
and
if
there's
any
more
questions
that
I
can
answer
about,
the
two-spirit
community
in
the
general
forum
or
questions
is
there
anything
else
that
you'd
like
to
know.
I
can
provide
my
contact
information
while
track.
Has
my
contact
information

more
than
welcome

reach
out
to
me

other
members
of
my
community,

I
have
a
lot
of
connections,
but
we're
just
happy
to
be
invited.
A
K
A
E
A
Beneficial
or
like,
are
there
already
trainings
going
on
that?
This
is
content
we
could
add
them
to
like
just
like
if
you
have
a
vision
of
what
already
exists
or
who,
who
would
be
the
people
at
the
county
to
get
some
of
this
feedback
too,
since
it
needs
to
get
beyond
just
this
virtual
room
of
people.
E
Sure
this
is
taryn,
I
could
do
some
contacting
of
d
e
and
I
our
diversity
equity
inclusion,
but
also
there's
quite
a
few
areas
where
we're
in
need
of
more
training
or
we
can
contact
people.
So
if
there
is
specific
trainings,
I
don't
I
don't
know
of
exactly
we
could.
I
could
come
up
with
more
of
a
list
when
I'm
not
not
tired.

Hi,
this
is
riva.
Some
of
the
departments
that
we've
done
training
for
with
hennepin
county
were
the
social
workers,
the
ci
child
protection
workers,
some
of
the
new
police
police
staff,
probation
staff-
I
we
did
it,
we
did
it
in
conjunction
with
the
equi
unit,
so-
and
I
think
elaine
sullivan
was
the
contact
there
with
the
counties.
E
This
is
taryn
yes,
child
protection
and
iqra.
The
indian
child
welfare
unit
is
they're
really
in
heat
of
these
trainings
too.
So
I'm
glad
that
they
have
been
offered.
I
know
that
there's
a
lot
of
public
facing
areas
in
health
and
human
services
that
could
really
benefit
from
some
trainings
and
I
could
reach
out
to
elaine
sullivan
and
ask
about
the
training
and
how
it
all
was
hooked
up.

And
this
is
viva
again
and
kind
of
when
I
was
I'm
kind
of
wanting
to
my
group
meeting
with
the
tec
group
trying
to
get
to
that's
where
I
was
kind
of
thinking,
we'd
get
together
socially
and
that's
kind
of
our
way.
Another
part
of
our
way,
because
when
we
meet
with
somebody,
we
have
a
feast
and
get
together
over
food
and
and
discuss
things
and
plan
things,
and
we
just
kind
of
wanted
to
meet
with
with
the
trans
equity
community
and
see.
