The
record
reflect
we
have
a
quorum
and,
if
any
of
my
colleagues
who
work
here
want
to
speak
up
quickly
to
be
on
the
record
and
be
present,
then
I'll
give
a
moment
for
that.
B
Awesome
and
I'm
sure
that
all
of
my
colleagues
will
be
on
the
call
shortly
here,
let
the
record
reflect
we
have
a
quorum.
B
We
have
one
discussion
item
on
our
agenda
today,
which
is
the
continuation
of
our
budget
amendment
markup
process.
As
a
result
of
american
rescue
plan
act
funds
after
we
complete
our
markup.
We
will
end
with
reports
of
our
regular
committees
that
have
met
this
cycle.
B
As
you
may
remember,
the
committee
of
the
whole
begun
begun
our
markup
last
week
by
approving
three
amendments.
Today,
with
the
help
of
our
budget
office,
we
have
eight
additional
prepared
amendments
before
us.
The
technical
team
will
be
displaying
the
amendments
on
the
screen
for
the
viewing
public.
Today's
amendment
packet
will
be
added
to
the
file
in
limbs.
Once
this
meeting
is
adjourned.
B
When
we've
completed
action
on
the
prepared
amendments,
I
will
open
the
floor
to
any
further
proposals
that
were
not
done
in
time
to
be
included
in
the
packet
when
we've
completed
all
amendments.
The
budget
resolution,
as
amended,
will
be
forwarded
to
our
next
meeting
of
the
full
council,
scheduled
for
tomorrow,
friday
on
july,
2nd
at
9
30
a.m.
B
And
so
before
we
jump
in
I'm
gonna
see
if
anybody
wants
to
say
anything,
I
I
don't
see
anybody
in
cube
and
with
that
we
will
start
with
our
first
amendment,
which
is
from
council
member
ellison
myself.
It
is
a
technical
amendment
and
I
will
ask
amelia
cooper
to
speak
to
this.
G
Yes,
thank
you,
chair
ellison.
This
was
a
coding
error.
In
our
budget
information
we
had
the
three
hundred
thousand
dollars
meant
for
the
corridor.
Activation
proposal
was
showing
up
in
public
works
so
that
total
was
off
by
three
hundred
thousand.
This
amendment
would
move
that
proposal
to
the
city
coordinator's
office,
who
are
the
the
operating
department
for
this
proposal,
so
this
would
reduce
public
works
appropriation
by
300,
000
and
increase
city
coordinators.
B
Great
thank
you
for
that
explanation.
I
will
now
read
the
motion
for
the
record,
so
this
is
a
motion
by
myself
amending
the
2021
mayor's
recommended
american
rescue
plan
proposals
in
the
zero
one:
three
three
zero
fund
for
the
public
works
and
city
coordinators
departments.
Transferring
the
coordinator
activation
proposal
authorizing
three
hundred
thousand
in
spending
from
public
works
to
the
city
coordinator,
while
public
works
will
be
a
partner
in
this
proposal.
The
program
program
will
be
administered
by
the
city
coordinator.
B
This
will
reduce
the
appropriation
to
public
works
by
300
000
and
increase
the
appropriation
to
the
city
coordinator
by
300.
000..
With
that,
I
will
move
that
amendment
and
see
if
my
colleagues
have
any
questions
I'll
note
for
the
record
that
council
president
bender
is
here
for
this
meeting,
seeing
no
one
in
queue,
I
will
ask
the
clerk
to
call
the
roll.
B
B
That
most
general
carries
next.
We
have
a
motion
by
councilmember
fletcher
and
I
will
allow
councilmember
fletcher
to
speak
to
this.
A
A
A
Was
not
anticipating
speaking
to
this,
but
I
will
I'm
I'm
happy
to
kick
it
off
unless.
B
A
I
I
think
dushani
dai
is
probably
the
the
staff
person
who
coordinated
this,
who
can
speak
to
it?
H
I
am
on
the
call
chair,
elson
council,
member
fletcher
I'll,
be
glad
to
speak
to
this
item.
You
know,
as
you
know,
the
arpa
funding
the
city
is
hoping
to
spend
appropriate
the
funding
directly
to
the
community
as
soon
as
possible.
H
We
do
still
have
to
follow
the
contracting
process
outlined
by
the
treasury
department,
so
we
don't
have
the
option
to
not
go
through
the
rfp
process
for
any
contracts
over
175
000.
However,
we
do
have
the
option
to
you
know:
speed
up
the
internal
processes
within
the
city,
city
procurement
process
and
the
option
that
we
have
come
up
with
is
creating
a
subgroup
that
would
review
the
proposals
forwarded
to
the
subgroup
by
the
purchasing
department
and
the
subgroup
would
be
consisted
of
the
mayor.
H
The
budget
committee
chair
and
the
finance
subcommittee
chair
and
I
will
also
be
part
of
the
subgroup
and
the
the
thought
is
that
we
would
review
these
contracts
and
forward
to
full
council
for
approval
or
cal
for
approval.
As
the
designee
or
the
finance
officer,
I
would
be
authorized
to
approve
these
contracts
and
modify
the
financial
policies
accordingly.
B
Thank
you,
ms
dye.
I
we
have
a
question
from
council
president
bevin.
E
Thank
you,
mr
chair.
I
was
just
typing
in
the
chat,
but
could
someone
invite
director
brennan
to
this
meeting?
She
doesn't
have
a
meeting
invite
so
she
can
watch
but
not
join
sorry.
There
are
a
lot
of
I've
been
working
for
the
last
24
hours
to
quickly
adjust
to
the
state
agreement
to
end
our
emergency,
the
state's
emergency
declaration
and
working
to
get
an
off-ramp
for
our
related
regulations
for
our
local
emergency.
E
So
I
wanted
to
comment
that
this
procurement
action
is
in
part
replaces
a
procurement
authority
that
had
been
in
place
under
the
emergency
declaration.
E
I
have
a
question
that
might
be
for
miss
ty,
but
also
director
brennan,
as
we
were
talking
about
the
sort
of
off-ramp
for
our
own
emergency
regulations,
and
it
came
to
our
attention
that
cped
has
some
other
types
of
federal
funding.
That
also
would
would
be
better
able
to
get
out
to
community
emergency
rental
assistance,
for
example,
that
would
benefit
from
this
procurement
process.
E
Otherwise
there
would
be
a
delay
in
getting
those
funds
to
their
intended
purpose.
So
I
don't
know
what
was
able
to
happen
between
that
meeting
at
8
30
this
morning
and
now,
but
I
just
wanted
to
verify
that
this
motion
and
the
amendment
to
our
financial
policies
is
also
going
to
cover
some
other
federally
funded
programs.
That
cped
has
identified
that
are
share
the
same
level
of
urgency
related
to
getting
the
funding
out
the
door.
E
And
if
needed,
we
could
also,
I
don't
want
to
put
people
on
the
spot,
so
I
just
we
could
also
potentially
bring
this
back
up
at
the
end
of
this
meeting.
If
there
is
need
for
staff
to
to
talk,
I
know
I
talked
to
the
clerk
and
others
in
the
interim,
but
I
I
didn't
have
time
to
call
everyone
with
all
the
follow-ups.
I
Mr
chair
and
madam
president,
I'm
sorry
I
I
was
late
to
the
meeting,
so
I'm
not
entirely
sure
that
I've
caught
the
entire
question,
but
I
believe
the
issue
was
around.
Does
this
motion
cover
other
than
arpa
procurement
needs
in
an
expedited
manner
and,
as
you
noted,
we
did
have
a
meeting
this
morning,
we're
still
working
on
refining
that,
and
so
I
I
believe
that
this
covers
the
majority
of
things.
I
There
may
be
a
few
things
we're
still
working
out
at
the
staff
level,
so
to
your
point
about
a
possible
slight
delay
or
moving
this
after.
We
might
be
able
to
confirm
that
with
certainty
right
now.
There
is
some
some
doubt
that
this
would
cover
everything,
and
so
I
think
this
would
cover
the
majority,
but
not
all
yeah
can't
confirm
that.
B
And
I
see
students
die,
may
be
able
to
add
some
some
additional
comments
or
contacts.
H
Yes,
thank
you,
chair
ellison
council,
president
bender.
This,
this
motion
is
only
for
arpa-funded
contracts.
The
way
it's
written
right
now.
What
we're
working
on
is
tying
the
two
programs
that
ms
brennan
needs
expedited
into
the
emergency
regulation.
I
I
think
that's
a
good
proposal.
Madam
president,.
B
I
see
it,
I
see
a
question
from
council
member
cono
and
then
I
see
councilmember
fletcher
who's,
the
author
of
this
motion
and
q,
I'm
wondering
if
councilmember
reconno.
Do
you
mind
if
I
allow
council
member
fletcher
who's?
The
author
of
this
motion
to
make
his
comments?
First?
Is
that
okay,
sure,
okay?
Thank
you.
Councilmember
fletcher.
A
Thank
you,
mr
chair,
I
mean,
I
think
this
conversation
does
just
drive
home.
The
importance
of
the
conversation
that's
been
happening
over
the
last
24
hours
about
creating
a
responsible
off-ramp
for
the
emergency
regulations.
So
you
know
appreciate
this
conversation
and
if
we
are
forced
to
adapt
this
to
include
more
because
we
cannot
achieve
that
off-ramp.
A
B
I'm
certainly
willing
to
put
the
to
to
pause
this
conversation
until
the
end
of
the
meeting,
but
we
do
have
two
people
in
queue:
councilmember,
mcconnell
and
councilmember
council.
Vice
president
jenkins,
councilman
mcconnell.
If
you
wanted
to
make
your
question.
J
Yeah
I
was
curious
if
either
the
author
of
the
motion
or
city
staff
could
help
me
understand
a
little
bit
more
about
the
scope
of
this
work.
So
you
know
my
understanding
is
that
the
city
is
due
to
receive
271
million
dollars
from
the
federal
government.
J
J
We
know
that
out
of
those
133
million,
or
so
we
have
36
million
dollars
in
the
unspent
category,
which
I
know
we'll
we'll
be
discussing
later
today.
So
just
curious.
Are
we
out
of
the
97
million?
That
still
remain
is?
Is
this
ad
hoc
work
group
and
finance
officer
designee,
expected
to
then
review
the
the
97
million
dollars
that
are
still
left
or
how
much
money
of
the
97
million
dollars?
Will
this
particular
ad
hoc
work,
group
and
finance
officer
be
expected
to
engage
with
and
review
and
and
vet.
B
Thanks
for
the
question,
I
see
councilmember
fletcher,
the
author
of
the
motion,
has
a
response
and
then
we'll
go
to
council.
Vice
president
jenkins,
that's
my
question.
A
Hi,
yes,
thanks,
councilmember
cano
for
that
clarifying
question.
It's
important
for
people
to
understand
this
that
this
ad
hoc
work
group
is
not
approving
any
expenditures
that
this
ad
hoc
work
group
is
approving
contracts
based
on
allocations
made
by
this
council
as
a
way
of
expediting
the
process
of
actually
getting
the
money
out
the
door.
Now,
that
is
not
an
insignificant
thing.
It's
important
that
we
look
at
the
contracts
and
make
sure
that
staff
are
selecting
appropriate
vendors.
A
It
will
shave
many
weeks
off
of
the
process
in
order
to
do
that,
which
is
why
we've
chosen
to
structure
it
this
way
we
did
create
a
a
process,
though,
and
I
I
think
it's
important-
that
people
understand
this
too,
so
that
if
people
do
have
concerns
about
something
coming
through
any
of
the
three
of
us
on
the
work
group
can
raise
an
objection
and
send
this
back
to
the
normal
council
process.
A
So
the
idea
here
is
really
that
we
recognize
that,
as
a
general
rule,
staff
are
doing
good
work
and
due
diligence
and
know
the
vendors
and
contractors
who
can
provide
these
services
and
are
going
to
bring
proposals
forward
that
we
feel
good
about,
and
we
want
to
help
them
get
money
out
the
door
into
community
to
do
this.
Urgent
emergency
recovery
work
as
quickly
as
we
can,
but
they
are
not
doing
anything
that
is
not
allocated
as
a
part
of
this
vote
we're
taking
today.
So
this
is
not
pre-spending
any
other
money.
A
This
is
not
giving
this
work
group
authorization
to
spend
outside
of
the
allocations
listed
on
the
art
for
proposal
that
we
are
ultimately
voting
on.
J
Thank
you
for
speaking
to
the
item
around
process.
My
my
question
was
about
the
level
of
monetary
review
that
will
be
needed,
so
the
contract
comes
before
the
ad
hoc
committee.
The
contract
will
probably
say
you
know:
500
000,
to
xyz
organization
to
do
x,
y
and
z,
work,
and
so
my
question
was:
is
this
ad
hoc
group
and
the
finance
officer
anticipating
to
review
97
million
dollars
worth
of
contracts
or
or
how
much,
how
much
money
worth
of
contracts?
J
Oh,
something
just
changed,
and
this
staff
or
sorry
I
was
gonna,
call
it
a
staff
direction
so
anyway,
if
we
could
just
focus
on
my
question.
First,
the
how
much
money
are
we
anticipating
this
group
will
have
to
review,
not
make
a
decision
on
review,
as
it
states
and
item
number
one.
B
I
don't
want
to
speak
for
staff,
and
so
if,
if
if,
if
anybody
wants
to
jump
in,
please
feel
free,
but
I
will
say
that
my
understanding
from
the
conversation
we've
had
so
far
is
that
is
that
the
purview
is
kind
of
what's
up
for,
what's
been
up
for
discussion
and
why
we're
considering
moving
this
item
to
the
end
of
the
meeting
so
that
we
can
sort
of
sort
out
some
of
the
questions
that
you're
asking
councilman
mcconnell
and
then
and
then
have
some
responses.
B
G
Yes,
I
think
I
have
a
short
clarification
for
council
member
cano,
so
the
I
don't
know
what
the
exact
number
is.
There
are
some
appropriations
that
are
a
part
of
this
first
99
million
dollar
chunk
of
approvals
that
we're
doing
today
and
tomorrow,
that
are
on
things
like
temporary
staff
or
things
that
won't
be
contracted
out.
This
work
group
will
be
working
with
just
contracts,
so
it
will
be
something
less
than
the
full
99
million
dollars,
but
it
will
be
only
things
that
have
already
been
appropriated
from
council.
K
Thank
you,
chair
ellison,
there's
been
just
a
lot
of,
I
think
new
language
for
the
public,
for
example
the
the
term
emergency
off-ramp.
Can
someone
define
that
for
the
for
the
public.
E
I
I
can,
I
can
jump
in,
and
I
had
actually
put
myself
in
cue
council
vice
president,
also
realizing
myself
that
I
didn't
do
a
good
job
of
especially
explaining
for
the
public,
where
we
are
at
so
the
night
before
last,
the
governor
and
the
legislature
reached
a
deal
on
in
their
legislative
session.
That
ends
the
state's
emergency
declaration.
E
Today
july
1st,
our
city's
emergency
declaration
was
initially
tied
to
end
at
the
same
time
as
the
states.
We
certainly
knew
that
there
were
negotiations
around
the
end
date,
but
that
july
first
date
is
sooner
than
was
anticipated
in
most
of
the
conversations
that
were
taking
place.
E
E
E
So
I
have
requested
that
the
mayor
call
an
emergency
meeting
of
the
city
council
today,
so
that
we
may
extend
our
emergency
declaration
to
create
an
off-ramp
which
I
borrowed
from
the
state,
as
they
were
talking
about
their
eviction
moratorium
ending
for
the
regulations
that
would
have
detrimental
impacts
if
they
abruptly
ended
with
no
plan
for
phasing
them
out.
There
are
two
main
buckets
of
those
number.
E
They
have
been
issued
by
the
mayor
and
approved
by
the
council
over
the
time
of
the
regula
of
the
emergency
declaration,
that's
in
place,
and
then
there
are
a
number
of
regulations
related
to
businesses,
adding
additional
supports
or
flexibility
for
business
operations
as
they
deal
with
the
impacts
of
covid
and
recovery.
E
E
For
us
that
many
of
us
council
members
would
probably
prefer
to
be
in
person
honestly,
but
it
would
also
apply
to
all
of
our
boards
and
commissions
that
have
been
meeting
remotely
and
our
staff
needs
more
time
to
work
out
the
technical
technology
plan
to
potentially
host
hybrid
meetings
so
that,
for
example,
the
council
or
a
committee
could
be
in
person,
but
people
could
call
in
from
remote
either
for
presentation
purposes
or
to
be
heard
at
a
public
hearing,
and
we
do
not
currently
have
a
plan
in
place
to
continue
with
televising
the
meetings
of
the
many
boards
and
commissions
that
have
been
meeting
remotely.
E
So
if
we
extended
our
local
emergency,
we
would
also
be
able
to
create
a
phased
approach
to
the
return
of
in-person
meetings.
For
all
of
the
bodies,
including
the
boards
and
commissions,
the
charter
commission,
board
of
estimated
taxation,
the
police
conduct
oversight
committee
and
and
all
the
others,
the
procurement
there
is
also
a
poor
procurement
regulation
in
place.
E
This
motion
is
designed
to
replace
that,
if,
if
we
can
design,
if
we
can
write
it
to
cover
all
of
the
anticipated
expenses
and
funding
related
to
emergency
assistance,
that
we
want
to
get
out
the
door
more
quickly,
so
that
is
the
relationship
between
this
motion
and
the
conversations
that
are
underway
with
staff
and
the
mayor
about
creating
a
less
abrupt
and
to
our
local
emergency
regulations.
E
So
I
think
I'm
happy
to
answer
more
questions
about
that.
I,
I
don't
want
to
hijack
this
meeting
too
much
to
talk
about
that,
so
I
I
I
do
think
it
would
be
best
to
to
take
this
motion
off
the
table.
If
the
author
is
willing
to
work
out
this
question
related
to
cped
funding.
E
I
also
don't
want
to
diminish
the
really
important
questions
that
are
being
asked,
very
good
questions
about
how
this
would
work
in
practice
and
what
it
would
cover
and
how
it
would
affect
the
spending
that
we
are
talking
about.
Approving
it
also
might
be
more
appropriate
to
do
it
at
the
end,
after
we've
approved
any
of
the
amendments
related
to
spending.
B
Yeah,
I
agree.
Okay,
I
think.
K
I
I
guess
I
think
you're
you're
asking
me
to
wait
until
we
get
to
the
emergency
off-ramp
conversation,
and
I
suppose
I
could
do
that,
but
I'm
wondering
does
so
does
this?
K
Would
this
still
extend
the
mayor's
procurement
realities
related
to
emergency
declaration?
I
think
that
the
the.
B
Council
vice
president,
if
I
could,
I
think
that
there's
a
lot
of
questions
regarding
this
amendment
and
I
think
that
the
the
discussion
so
far
has
seemed
to
indicate
that
staff
would
need
at
least
a
few
more
minutes
and
before
they
can
answer
all
the
questions.
B
And-
and
so
I
want
to
respect
the
fact
that
you
know
the
the
author
has
has
asked
that
we
take
this
up
at
the
end
of
the
meeting,
and
I
think
that
there,
hopefully
more
more,
questions
are
able
to
be
answered
at
the
end
of
the
meeting.
B
E
I
think,
just
just
to
be
frank,
the
the
mayor
had
planned
to
just
end
the
emergency
declaration,
which
would
end
the
procurement
authority,
along
with
all
of
the
regulations
that
are
currently
in
place.
K
B
You,
madam
president,
so
I
would
ask
the
clerk
to
move
to
the
next
motion
and
to
bring
council
member
fletcher's
motion
back
up
at
the
end
of
the
meeting
after
we've
taken
up
all
the
other
items,
and
I
would
request
my
colleagues
keep
the
discussion,
verbal
and
and
let's
try
to
keep
the
chat
as
clear
as
possible,
so
the
tech
team
can
communicate
and
so
that
I
can
see
the
queue
with
that.
B
I
will
move
on
to
the
next
motion
and
take
this
back
up
after
we've
completed
the
rest
of
our
business
today.
B
And
so
we
will
then
move
to
amendment
number
three,
which
is
a
motion
by
councilmembers,
cano
and
cunningham,
and
I
would
invite
the
authors
to
go
ahead
and
speak
on
this
amendment
and
I'll.
Ask
the
tech
team
to
make
sure
it's
up
for
display
and
there.
It
is.
J
Thank
you,
mr
chair
I'll,
go
ahead
and
start
and
weave
together
the
conversations
from
last
week
and
and
this
week.
So
as
you
all
might
remember,
we
had
a
very
robust
conversation
about
the
city's
plans
to
address
the
racial
inequities
that
we
have
seen
exacerbated
by
the
pandemic
and
by
the
murder
of
mr
floyd
through
the
lengths
of
sexual
violence
and
commercial
sexual
exploitation.
J
And
so
last
week
we
had
a
really
constructive
discussion
about
feedback
to
this
potential
initiative
and
we
had
a
very
big
meeting
with
city
staff,
the
mayor's
office
council
members
and
their
aides
late
last
week,
and
you
know
myself
and
councilmember
cunningham-
had
the
opportunity
to
meet
and
to
talk
about
the
intent
and
scope
of
this
work.
And
so
what's
here
before
you
today,
is
an
updated
and
integrated
proposal
to
address
this
issue.
J
So,
first
and
foremost,
you
know,
I
think
folks
can
read
this
on
the
screen,
and
so
I'm
not
I'm
not
going
to
read
the
whole
thing.
But
the
focus
is
a
city-wide
plan
to
end
commercial,
sexual
exploitation
and
human
trafficking.
Priority
prior
prioritizing,
the
american,
indian,
african-american,
immigrant
and
transgender
communities.
J
J
That
council
members
received
on
monday
of
this
week,
sent
out
by
the
city
coordinator's
office
through
sunu
srita,
who
does
the
work
on
labor
and
human
trafficking.
So
the
proposal
is
650
thousand
dollars.
J
It's
a
city-wide
program
available
to
various
non-profits
throughout
minneapolis
to
help
the
city
carry
forward
the
work
of
the
blueprint
which
has
been
developed
and
designed
for
quite
some
time
now,
with
the
help
of
community-based
organizations
who
have
done
that
work
for
free
up
until
now,
there's
been
no
compensation
for
them
to
participate
in
these
programs
and
initiatives
and
to
help
carry
out
the
work,
and
this
conversation
is
as
much
welcomed
by
them
today.
J
I'll
add
that
I
think
some
council
members,
you
know
wanted
to
maybe
see
this
money
come
out
of
the
health
department,
funds
that
that
go
to
youth,
opioids
and
safety.
And
you
know
that
didn't
seem
like
a
good
idea
to
me
and
there
were
no
other
funds
in
the
proposed
package
from
the
mayor's
office
to
specifically
address
commercial
sexual
exploitation.
J
So
this
is
expressed
in
its
very
explicit
nuanced
and
connected
to
the
work
that
the
city
has
been
leading
on
this
front
for
quite
some
time
now,
and
would
just
I'll
pause
here
and
allow
other
folks
to
speak
and
happy
to
take
questions.
B
Thank
you,
councilman
mcconnell,
councilmember,
cunningham,.
M
Thank
you,
mr
chair,
and
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
to
councilman
mcconnell
for
bringing
me
into
this
conversation,
as
I
mentioned
at
our
last
meeting
related
to
our
proposals
that
I
actually
myself
work
with
outreach
organizations
once
a
week
for
us
to
do
the
work
on
lowry
avenue
north
to
do
some
outreach
with
women
who
are
in
particular,
who
are
being
commercially
sexually
exploited.
M
I
am
I
I
was.
I
am
excited
to
have
my
name
on
this
work
because
of
the
fact
that
it
is
set
up
and
ready
to
go.
This
is
not
something
that
would
be
necessarily
starting
from
scratch.
The
city
already
has
relationships
with
many
of
these
organizations
and
we're
building
out
those
relationships.
M
I
much
to
accountable
recano's
point.
When
I
talked
to
a
few
of
the
organizations,
they
said
that
they
actually
essentially
like
their
funding,
does
not
include
minneapolis,
and
so
when
they
do
work
when
they
do
their
outreach
work
in
minneapolis
they're
doing
it
for
free,
which
is
very
generous.
But
this
is
really
important
work
that
we
should
not
be
asking
nonprofits
to
essentially
do
for
free
out
of
the
goodness
of
their
hearts.
M
We
should
be
investing
in
these
organizations
that
are
doing
really
critical
work,
and
so
you
know,
there's
there's
a
a
real
opportunity
here
to
invest
in
these
nonprofit
organizations
who
are
doing
this
specialized
type
of
work,
while
also
thinking
longer
term
about
how
are
we
building
out
sustainable
infrastructure
to
continue
this
work
from
the
city
front?
M
M
So,
being
mindful
of
you
know
that
there
are
certain
areas
in
the
city
in
which
there's
a
larger
concentration
of
issues
than
other
parts,
and
so
you
know
acknowledging
that,
while
also
holding
that
there
that
this
this
issue
manifests
in
different
ways
and
shows
up
in
different
parts
of
the
city.
Again,
I
feel
really
really
good
and
and
proud
to
have
my
name
on
this
work
and
thank
councilmember
connor
for
bringing
me
in
on
it
and
to
the
city,
staff
and
community
organizations
and
leaders
who
have
been
doing
this
work.
M
B
Thank
you,
council
president.
E
Thanks,
mr
chair,
I
just
wanted
to
briefly
comment
that
since
the
last
meeting
for
any
of
the
amendments
that
I
I
knew
about
ahead
of
today's
meeting,
including
this
one,
I've
been
able
to
follow
up
with
the
relevant
staff
and
feel
very
comfortable
and
confident
that
the
amendments
that
are
coming
forward,
including
this
one,
are
good
governance,
they're,
structured
in
a
way
that
reflects
existing
work
in
this
case
report
and
sort
of
action
plan
related
to
this
issue
and
that
staff
have
the
capacity
to
program
the
funds.
E
So
I
think
the
question
the
policy
question
to
council
members
is,
you
know
how
much
money
do
folks
want
to
spend
in
this
round
versus
saving
for
future
rounds?
And
then
you
know
questions
around
prioritization.
But
for
this
motion
I
feel
very
comfortable
that
it
is
grounded
again
in
in
work
that
has
been
ongoing
and
that
it
is,
you
know,
meets
the
criteria
that
have
been
outlined
for
this
round,
ready
to
go
to
support
folks
who
have
been
impacted
by
the
pandemic.
E
B
Council
president,
seeing
no
one
else
in
queue,
I
will
ask
the
clerk
to
call
the
rule
on
this
motion.
N
C
C
D
C
Shared
a
listen,
there
are
13
eyes.
B
That
carries
that
motion
carries
next.
We
have
a
motion
by
council
member
bender
I'll
ask
council
president
bender
to
go
ahead
and
speak
to
this
amendment
and
I'll.
Ask
the
tech
team
to
put
the
amendment
on
display.
E
Thanks,
mr
chair,
I'm
happy
to
invite
the
staff
as
well
from
finance
or
the
coordinator's
office
to
speak
to
this.
This
motion
would
increase
the
total
amount
of
first
round
spending
by
150
thousand
dollars
to
hire
consultants
to
set
up
a
program,
evaluation
and
reporting
process
that
is
required
by
the
federal
government
for
these
funds.
E
I
had
asked
this
question
and
it
turned
out
that
around
the
same
time
of
our
last
meeting,
new
federal
guidance
was
released
around
reporting.
So
I
think
this
will
set
us
up.
E
Well,
this
small
investment,
very
small,
as
a
percentage
of
the
total
amount
of
arpa
dollars
that
are
coming
to
the
city,
will
set
us
up
to
have
a
consistent
reporting
structure
that
will
help
us
meet
the
federal
requirements
and
also
track
this
spending,
so
that
we
can,
you
know,
determine
what
what
outcomes
we're
looking
to
measure
making
sure
we
have
the
information
that
we
need
to
to
track
the
efficacy
of
the
spending,
and
I
you
know,
I
think
this
is
particularly
important
because
we
have
in
policy
thanks
to
all
of
your
leadership.
E
All
of
you,
you
know,
created
so
many
clear
policy
directions
around
focusing
on
race,
equity,
focusing
on
priority
populations
and
priority
geographies.
So
we
really
do
need
to
track
how
we're
doing
and
making
sure
that
we
can
course
correct,
if,
if
possible
over
the
three
year
time
period
of
the
funding.
E
So
I
think
this
will
help
support
the
staff
and
all
the
departments
that
are
programming,
funding,
help
inform
future
policy
decisions
and
support
the
staff
for
administering
the
funds
and
responsible
for
telling
the
federal
government
what
we're
doing
with
with
all
the
money
they
were
able
to
send
thanks.
B
Thank
you,
council
president.
Are
there
any
questions
on
this
amendment.
F
Thank
you,
mr
chair.
I
just
want
to
say
I
appreciate
this
amendment
coming
forward
and
support
it,
as
is
a
really
good
governance
measure.
F
You
know
we
did
discuss
an
audit
committee
when
we
changed
our
entire
work
plan
last
year
at
the
beginning
of
covid
to
say,
what's
important
now,
one
of
the
things
that
we
did
was
we
worked
on
and
discussed
how
to
create
processes
to
track
our
covet
expenditures
such
that
if
they
were
ever
to
become
available
for
reimbursement
that
we
would
have
all
the
appropriate
records
for
such
a
thing,
and
so
I
did
check
in
with
audit
about
this
amendment
yesterday,
and
you
know
this
seems
to
be
about
right
if
what
the
consult
is
going
to
do
is
to
build
structures
and
not
complete
the
actual
ongoing
monitoring,
but
we
had
planned
to
do
some
of
this
later
down
the
road,
but
I
think
this
will
really
help
us
in
those
efforts.
B
B
Seeing
no
further
questions,
I
would
ask
the
clerk
to
call
the
roll.
N
C
B
Are
13
eyes
and
that
motion
carries
next.
We
will
move
on
to
an
amendment
authored
by
council
members,
cunningham,
osmond
and
gordon,
and
I
will
invite
the
authors
to
speak
to
their
amendment
and
I
will
ask
the
clerk
to
display
the
amendment
authors.
You
know
before.
M
Great,
thank
you.
Okay,
cause
often
will
pass
it
to
the
co-authors
if
they're
interested
in
adding
anything.
M
So
this
is
investing
1
million
dollars
into
our
youth
in
minneapolis
after
schools
program,
specifically
to
be
able
to
address
the
fact
that
young
people
have
been
the
most
harmed
by
covid19
they've
lost
over
a
year
of
being
in
school.
They
have
lost
a
year
of
enrichment
programming,
they've
lost
a
year
of
mentorship,
they've
lost
a
year
of
connecting
in
person
with
their
peers
and
community
and
they've
lost
their
a
year
of
leadership
opportunities
out
out
in
the
community
as
well,
and
so
we
now
have
two
different.
M
City
documents
that
actually
explicitly
call
for
us
to
invest
in
creating
a
youth
development
fund
for
the
city,
so,
first
in
our
strategic
and
racial
equity
action
plan,
the
public
safety
goal
is
to
create
a
youth
development
fund
that
would
invest
in
closing
disparities
in
high
quality,
out-of-school
programming,
out-of-school
time,
programming,
the
disparities
that
we
see
so
increasing
access
in
the
areas
that
have
concentrated
violence
and
then
also
tomorrow,
we
will
be
likely
approving
what
was
presented
to
the
public
health
and
safety
committee.
M
Essentially
as
the
work
plan
for
operationalizing
racism
as
a
public
health
emergency
and
for
their
youth
related
goal,
it
is
to
create
a
youth
development
fund
that
would
invest
in
out-of-school
time,
programming
for
young
people.
So
this
is
a
priority
for
us
as
a
city
enterprise,
but
I
will
tell
you,
I'm
sure
many
of
my
colleagues
can
speak
to
this
as
well
that
I
hear
from
constituents
all
of
the
time.
M
These
kids
need
something
to
do.
These
kids
need
somewhere
to
go.
These
kids
need
adult
more
adults
around
them,
caring,
healthy
adults
around
them,
helping
to
to
take
care
of
them,
and
this
is
an
opportunity
for
us
to
be
able
to
invest
in
it.
So
what
this
one
million
dollars
would
do
is
that
it
would
be
allocated
through
the
youth
coordinating
boards.
M
It's
an
existing
budget
line
item,
that's
ymap
the
youth
and
minneapolis
after
schools
program
after
after
school
programs,
and
it
would
be
allocated
to
youth
serving
organizations
in
the
immediate
to
be
able
to
invest.
In
you
know,
we
want
to
innovate
young
people
with
options
for
for
programs
to
get
plugged
into
enrichment
opportunities,
leadership
opportunities
and
the
way
that
we
are.
M
Going
to
be
able
to
do
that
is
by
investing
in
it
and
and-
and
you
know,
with
the
intention
of
us
looking
long-term
as
well
as
to
how
are
we
going
to
create
something
sustainable?
But
that's
really
going
to
be
something
that
we
look
at
through
the
budget
right
now.
We
need
to
get
these
dollars
out
the
door
invested
in
our
young
people
and
really
helped
to
be
able
to
counteract
some
of
the
pretty
significant
harms
that
have
been
done
onto
our
young
people
as
a
result
of
this
pandemic.
M
There
is
a
a
an
attachment
for
60
000
to
be
allocated
to
youth
outreach
workers
in
the
cedar,
riverside
neighborhood,
very
specifically
because
that
did
exist
because
member
fletcher
and
I
included
that
in
a
budget
amendment
that
we
made
back
in
2018,
but
unfortunately
it
did
not
make
it
into
the
budget
for
the
2020,
sorry
2021
budget
cycle,
and
so
this
is
a
way
for
if
and
feedback
has
been
resounding
that
that
that
those
youth
outreach
workers
have
been
like
really
critical
in
the
cedar
riverside
neighborhood.
M
So
I
am
grateful
for
the
opportunity
to
be
able
to
support
bringing
that
work
back
into
that
community,
so
I
will
turn
it
over
if
my
co-authors
are
interested
in.
In
also
speaking
to
this,
thank
you,
mr
chair,
and
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions
folks
might
have.
B
Thank
you.
I
see
a
few
folks
in
cube,
but
before
we
get
into
that
I'll
I'll
invite
councilmember
osmond
to
speak
for
just
a
moment.
N
N
You
know
not
enough
opportunity
for
them
to
go
so
kids
are
just
hanging
out
around
there's,
especially
in
my
district
there's,
absolutely
no
congregation
center
in
the
area
a
place
they
can
go
for
homework
center,
someone
who
run
a
youth
youth
program
and
a
homework
center.
N
It
makes
a
difference.
One
of
the
programs
that
I
run
in
my
previous
organization
was
98
graduation
and
we
had
four
days
programming
and
you
know
mentoring,
kids
and
making
sure
that
we
putting
resources
into
that.
It's
it's
very
important
and
it
will
go
a
long
way.
So
I
really
want
to
take
the
time
to
thank
councilmember,
kenny
ham
and
gordon
and
their
leadership
to
bring
this
forward
and
also
the
following
motion
that
will
that
will
follow
up
after
this
slide
yeah.
N
Thank
you
last
week
when
we
were
talking
about
when
I
was
bringing
something
up
right
now,
having
them
work
with
them
and
coming
up
something
together
that
we
citywide
that
we
can
kind
of
address
the
issue
that
we
all
have
the
similar
issue:
north
minneapolis,
south
minneapolis,
whatever
you
name
it
but
collaborating
with
them.
N
I'm
really
happy
with
that,
and
I
also
do
want
to
thank
president
bender
for
calling
me
and
really
are
reaching
out
to
me
on
that
and
I'm
super
happy,
and
I
thank
my
colleagues
for
supporting
this.
Thank
you.
B
Thank
you,
councilman
councilmember,.
J
Thank
you,
mr
chair.
I
just
wanted
to
speak
in
favor
of
this
amendment.
I
think
it's
very,
very
timely
and
meets
a
very
a
specific
gap
that
we
have
heard
from
various
parts
of
the
city,
so
I'll
share
that
you
know
when
councilmember
cunningham
and
I
had
a
chance
to
speak
earlier.
This
week
we
talked
about
the
ability
to
support
young
people
who
wanted
to
stay
engaged
in
learning
opportunities
that
might
involve
arts
and
culture
stem
and
steam.
J
The
science
and
arts
based
curriculum
that
many
people
speak
about
these
days
with
regards
to
the
public
school
system
and
other
educational
opportunities.
So
I'm
very,
very
happy
and
thankful
that
the
colleagues
listed
here
today
were
had
the
foresight
to
bring
this
forward.
I
know
that
we
have
heard
the
need
for
this
particular
kind
of
investment
from
folks
at
38th
and
chicago
who
are
saying
that
young
people
throughout
the
pandemic
just
didn't,
have
places
to
go
and
play
play.
J
Basketball
didn't
have
places
to
engage
with
mentors
and
and
other
adults
to
have
a
constructive
things
for
them
to
to
do
to
lead
them
to
a
better
future.
We
have
heard
from
pillsbury
united
communities
that
they've
had
to
close
down
a
lot
of
their
summer
programming,
which
is
typically
available
on
a
sort
of
a
scale.
J
You
know
the
fee
varies
depending
on
your
income
and
those
programs
where
deeply
multiracial
and
multicultural
and
really
serve
the
local
communities
in
minneapolis,
and
so
I
think
this
particular
fund
will
really
respond
appropriately
and
and
rightly
so,
to
to
so
much
need
that
we
see
in
places
like
cedar
riverside,
where
we
know
the
young
folks
have
also
been
struggling
with
the
opioid
health
issues
and
chemical
dependency
issues
and
and
the
moms
have
been
asking
us
for
help.
A
lot
of
the
east
african
mothers
on
the
cedar.
J
Riverside
neighborhood
for
many
years
have
reached
out
to
us
as
a
council
to
ask
for
for
support
for
those
young
people,
and
so
I
think
that
this
is
really
timely
and
I'm
really
looking
forward
to
seeing
this
money
get
out
the
door
and
and
get
into
the
right
organizations
and
groups
to
ensure
that
our
the
kids
and
children
and
young
people
of
our
community
have
more
more
support
during
this
time.
So
thank
you
to
the
authors
for
bringing
this
forward.
K
Thank
you,
chair
ellison,
and
you
know
I
just
want
to
say
I.
I
have
no
no
objections
with
the
the
content
and.
K
The
deep
need
for
these
programs
and
as
it
stands
now,
we
are
at
1.6
million
dollars
of
unallocated
funds,
which
you
know
I
I'm
just
concerned
about
the
process
and
I
believe
that
these
programs
that
are
moving
forward
are
vitally
important
to
our
community.
K
In
fact,
I
had
a
plan
to
bring
forward
a
a
larger
package
that
would
address
all
of
these
issues,
as
we
begin
to
think
about
our
you
know
how
we
are
spending
these
un
obligated
funds,
as
well
as
the
additional
135
million
dollars
that
we
still
have
to
program
out.
So
I
I
I
will
be
reluctantly
supporting
these.
This
goes
against
all
the
the
comments,
the
conversations
that
we
had
last
week,
the
reasons
why
we
are
even
meeting
today
about
this
topic,
but
you
know
that's,
that's
yeah.
B
Thank
you,
council.
Vice
president
councilmember
palmisano.
F
Thank
you,
mr
chair.
I
also
will
be
reluctantly
supporting
this
today.
I
don't
I'm
I'm
hoping
that
one
of
the
authors
can
help
me
understand.
Maybe
why
well
I'm
sorry,
my
microphone
is
messing
up.
I
can
tell.
F
There
I
feel,
as
though
we're
creating
two
different
parallel
processes
here,
I'm
concerned
to
learn-
and
maybe
this
isn't
true-
and
someone
can
help
correct
that
that
there
will
be
another
staff
person
added
in
this
one
time,
money
and
and
that's
concerning,
but
I'm
I'm
wondering
why
we're
putting
more
money
toward
a
separate
organization.
That's
doing
the
same
thing
and
I'm
curious
if
this
has
been
vetted
by
the
youth
coordinating
board.
F
F
I
think
that
you
know
the
leader
of
the
ycb
and
a
group
could
be
a
part
of
it
could
be
dealing
with
applications
through
that.
So
I'm
concerned
that
we
are
creating
two
different
parallel
processes
that
are
confusing
that
now
this
one
needs
its
own
staff
person
and
that
how
we
would
deal
with
you
know
dual
applications
in
both.
I
just
it's
with
lots
of
reservations,
and
maybe
one
of
the
authors
could
help
to
clarify
why
we're
putting
this
money
into
this
separate
organization.
B
Thank
you,
councilmember
palmisano,
I
see.
Councilman
cunningham
has
a
response.
M
Oh
you're
beautiful,
thank
you
yeah!
Yes,
thank
you.
Council,
chair
cunning,
er,
chair
cunningham,
I'm
used
to
hearing
that
chair
allison
and
councilmember
palmisano.
So
yes
in
the
next
amendment.
Actually
you
will
see
that
the
youth
and
community
safety
fund
is
actually
being
reoriented
a
little
bit
so
that
we
have
some
clear
delineation
about
how
the
money
will
actually
be
used,
and
so
this
has
not
been
vetted
by
the
entire
youth
coordinating
board.
M
However,
I
have
been
in
conversations
with
the
youth
coordinating
board
staff
about
this,
and
this
is
not
creating
a
a
parallel
process
because
and
speak
to
the
second.
M
It
was
actually
originally
my
intent
to
have
both
of
this
amendment
and
the
next
one,
but
it
was
an
oversight
on
my
part
for
not
combining
them.
So
you
know
we'll
speak
more
to
the
the
next
one
as
well,
and
the
what
it
actually
is
is
that
this
money
will
be
going
to
youth
development
related
programming,
which
is
more
focused
on
what
to
what
council
member
cono
spoke
of
stem
leadership,
development,
community
involvement,
so
you
know
out
of
after
school
programs,
summer
programs
so
on.
M
Then
the
youth
and
community
safety
fund
is
going
to
be
reoriented
to
have
youth
and
community
health,
so
that's
going
to
be
really
focusing
on
prevention
and
intervention
related
to
health
issues,
so
opioid
use
and
other
like
mental
health
issues,
so
really
focusing
on
health.
So
this
is
youth
development
programming.
M
The
next
will
they
will
also
be
doing
work
related
to
youth
and
community
health.
The
youth
coordinating
board
will
still
be
supporting
the
process
for
the
youth
and
community
health
fund.
They
will
still
be
a
part
of
that,
but
this
is
not
duplicating
the
processes.
I
I
do
try
to
be
very
mindful
of
good
governance
and
good
governance
structures,
I'm
a
bit
of
a
systems
nerd,
and
so
so
this
is
not
duplicating
any
processes
in
the
with
that.
M
So
I
think
I
may
have
answered
the
question.
I
hope
I
did,
and
so
I
will
turn
because
I
see
that
there
are
other
council
members
in
queue.
B
Councilmember
palmisano,
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
that
you
didn't
have
any
additional
questions
or
responses
nope.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
So
much
council
president
bender.
E
After
some
discussion
of
some
separate
but
very
similar
interests
in
supporting
youth,
I
I
do
think
that
there
is
a
need
to
increase
the
total
amount
of
spending
dedicated
for
youth
support
in
this
round
of
arpa
funding.
I
you
know,
I
know
I
I
I'm
not
sure
it's
really
fair
to
kind
of
compare.
E
What's
in
the
mayor's
proposal
versus
what
council
members
are
adding,
I
think
some
council
members
got
very
specific
things
added
into
the
mayor's
proposal
and-
and
I
think
this
I
frankly
think
that
this
is
a
gap
that
that
I
support
filling.
You
know
I
think
we've
talked
so
many
times
so,
just
very
briefly,
you
know,
I
think,
watching
our
youth
through
this
past
year.
E
E
Some
of
you,
I
think,
more
than
others,
and
I
know
how
much
all
of
the
council
members
have
been
working
in
community
and-
and
you
know
even
personally,
trying
to
support
the
young
people.
So
I
just
think
this
is
so
urgently
needed.
I
I'm
not
one
of
the
council
members
who's
been
directly
serving
on
these
coordinating
board
or
otherwise
sort
of
more
directly
involved
in
the
programs
that
we
have
existing
for
for
youth.
E
B
Thank
you
very
much
council
president
bender.
I
put
myself
in
queue,
but
before
I
make
my
comments,
I
want
to
just
say
that
council
member
goodman
has
had
to
step
out
for
agenda
setting
for
another
committee.
B
So
if
you
do
not
hear
her
in
the
roll
call,
that
is
why-
and
I
just
wanted
to
say
that
you
know
I
believe
you
know
last
meeting
there-
there
were
a
lot
of
amendments
that
did
not
come
ready
that
were
using
unallocated
or
unobligated
funds,
and
I
I
think
I
remember
saying
in
the
meeting
that
I
don't.
B
I
don't
mind
how
much
of
this
money
we
spend,
whether
it's
all
of
it,
whether
we
preserve
all
of
it,
but
that
I
was
concerned
that,
without
all
of
us
being
able
to
see
the
amendments
beforehand
and
without
being
able
to
know
for
certain
whether
staff
had
done
their
due
diligence
that
that
was
really
driving
the
main
concern.
B
We
certainly
passed
the
amendment,
the
one
amendment
that
was
prepared,
that
did
have
staff
support
that
did
use
unobligated
funds
last
week,
and
I
think
that
that's
why
you
know
this
isn't
inconsistent
with
how
we
treated
the
items
last
week.
B
You
know
these
were
all
prepared
ahead
of
time
and
that,
if
and
that,
if
once
we
get
through
these
these
amendments,
if
there
were
unprepared
amendments
that
again
were
using
unallocated
funds,
then
then
the
antennas,
I
think
for
all
of
us,
would
go
back
up,
and
so
I
think
it's
really
a
matter
of
the
amount
of
diligence
that
we've
all
been
able
to
see
and
share
with
one
another
that
was
driving
the
extension
to
this
week,
not
purely
the
use
of
unallocated
funds.
B
So
I
just
wanted
to
make
that
that
comment.
I
see
that
we
have
councilman
ricano
in
the.
J
J
J
Typically,
when
the
mayor
proposes
the
budget
the
council
members
get
to
amend
it,
approve
it
or
deny
it.
This
is
the
same
process
we're
following
here
now.
This
isn't
new.
This
isn't
odd.
This
isn't
strange.
This
is
how
we
do
the
work
together.
This
is
the
checks
and
balances
of
the
city.
The
mayor
and
his
team,
working
with
staff,
have
put
together
a
recommendations
we
are
now
digging
into
them.
Making
changes
addressing
the
issues
that
we
feel
feel
must
be
reflected
in
such
an
initiative.
J
I
also
feel
that
you
know
having
36
million
dollars
of
unspent
funds,
knowing
that
we're
gonna
still
have
to
tackle
a
city
budget
in
august
and
december,
and
we're
gonna
have
likely
the
second
half
of
the
arp
dollars
coming
in
next
spring
that
it
is
appropriate
for
us
to
get
this
money
out
the
door.
Understanding
that
communities
right
now
are
struggling
to
pay
the
rent
artists
are
out
of
work.
J
You
know
many
of
our
cultural
centers
have
had
to
shut
down,
and
so
I
would
say
that
it
would
be
amazing
if
we
would
have
had
another
two
million
dollar
amendment
to
invest
in
the
arts
and
cultural
work,
in
the
way
that
you
know,
councilmember,
gordon
and
osman,
and
and
cunningham
got
together
to
really
vision
about
the
money
that
is
needed
in
in
the
youth
population
of
minneapolis
and
so
right
now,
as
it
stands
out
of
the
271
million
dollars
that
the
city
will
receive
through
the
arp
funds.
J
Only
500
000
of
those
have
gone
into
arts
and
cultural
work
at
the
city
and
in
minneapolis,
and
so
I
do
feel
like
we
could
have
done
more
and
we
could
have
really
met
the
moment.
But
I
understand
that
you
know
time
is
limited
for
people,
so
I
feel
really
comfortable
with
all
of
the
amendments
that
we
have
approved
today.
I
don't
think
we
have
a
separate
process.
J
I
think
this
is
how
we
integrate
the
vision,
needs
and
a
variety
of
requests
from
many
of
our
constituents
and
residents,
and
this
is
also
a
time
to
respond.
I
feel
a
sense
of
discomfort
knowing
that
we
are
still
going
to
be
sitting
on
30
million
dollars,
knowing
that
there's
people
in
our
community
right
now
that
need
to
figure
out
how
they're
going
to
pay
the
rent.
J
How
they're
going
to
put
food
on
the
table,
how
they're
going
to
transport
their
kids
to
the
locations
they
need
to
go
to
and-
and
you
know,
restaurants
are
still
struggling
to
figure
out
how
they're
going
to
stay
afloat
in
you
know
our
cultural
and
commercial
corridors.
We
know
that
many
of
our
cultural
centers
have
had
to
shut
down
and
now
provide
services
and
and
programs
and
events,
and
some
of
that
is
coming
back.
J
But
we
know
that
the
racial
inequities
have
deepened
over
the
last
12
months
and
I
think
that
allocating
these
funds
quickly
and
using
our
expertise
as
council
members,
who
have
been
at
least
together
now
for
four
years,
really
leaning
on
that
work
and
understanding
that,
for
some
of
us,
our
work
is
engagement.
Every
day
we
have
meetings
every
day.
J
We
talk
to
community
groups
every
week,
and
so
I
I
want
us
to
really
recognize
that
asset
based
knowledge
that
we
bring
as
policy
makers
and
not
pretend
that
we
have
to
reinvent
the
wheel
every
time.
There's
a
budget
nothing's
going
to
change
in
45
days,
well,
knock
on
wood
and
and
so
again,
in
45
days,
when
we
take
up
the
conversation
about
what
to
do
with
the
30
million
dollars
that
are
left.
I
think
some
of
these
issues
are
going
to
be
the
same.
J
So
I
just
want
to
really
help
us
all
to
acknowledge
all
of
the
hard
work
that
we
do
every
day
that
we
are
in
daily
community
engagement,
conversations
weekly
community
group
conversations
and
that
that's
the
work
is
to
feed
those.
You
know
that
sort
of
constellation
of
feedback
that
we
get
through
text,
email
phone,
calls
community
meetings
and
put
them
into
these
budget
amendments
so
again
really
happy
to
support
the
cunningham
gordon
osmond
amendment,
and
I
have
no
issues
with
the
process.
I
think
we're
doing
a
good
job.
B
Thank
you,
councilmember
councilman
board.
L
Thank
you
very
much.
I
just
wanted
to
speak
to
the
motion
a
little
bit
and
I
did
want
to
clarify
that
there
was
not
the
intention
to
add
a
staff
position
and
just
got
confirmed
from
the
director
of
the
ycb
that
there
is
no
staff
position
being
added
with
this,
not
that
we
could
maybe
use
more
staff,
but
that
isn't
part
of
this
motion
here.
L
I
also
want
to
point
out
I've
served
on
the
youth
coordinating
board
for
a
long
time
and
out
of
school
and
after-school
programming
has
been
a
focus
and
we've
been
watching
decades
of
deteriorating
funding
from
the
state
and
other
levels
coming
there,
and
I
also
feel
like
this
is
one
area
where
we
really
fell
short
during
the
pandemic.
I
think
in
our
concern
to
make
sure
that
everybody
was
safe,
that
we
were
separated.
L
And
I
what
I
just
said
about
this
could
apply
to
the
next
motion
coming
up
too
in
terms
of
how
we
need
to
bring
resources
to
our
youth.
And
I
won't
necessarily
have
to
speak
again.
But
I
appreciate
everybody's
support.
B
Thank
you
so
much
councilmember,
gordon
I'm
not
seeing
anyone
else
in
queue,
and
so,
if
there
aren't
any
further
questions
or
comments
from
my
colleagues,
I
will
ask
the
clerk
to
call
the
role
on
this
amendment.
B
B
That
motion
carries
next.
We
have
another
motion
by
our
our
our
very
busy
trio
of
council
members,
cunningham
osmond
and
gordon,
and
so
I
will
allow
them
to
speak
to
this.
Amendment
as
well
seems
to
be
related
to
the
to
the
last
one.
M
Yes,
thank
you,
mr
chair.
Again,
it
was
it's
my
apologies.
I
meant
to
combine
the
two.
It
was
an
oversight
on
my
part,
so
this
is
and
again
I
will
pass
it
over
to
my
colleagues
to
be
able
to
speak
to
any
specifics
that
they
would
like
to
talk
to.
So
this
is
just
clarifying
the
division
of
so
the
youth
and
community
safety
funds
kind
of
a
conglomeration
trying.
M
So
this
is
to
help
create
some
more
clarity,
in
addition
to
the
1
million,
specifically
for
the
youth
development
fund
related
work.
So
what
we're
looking
at
doing
is
taking
this
taking
this
bucket
of
money
and
dividing
it
up
and
so
we're
looking
at
putting
one
million.
So
this
is
the
original
amount.
It
was
1.75
one
million
dollars
going
to
a
youth
and
community
health
fund
to
help
clarify
for
their
that
is
going
to
health
related
work,
both
youth
and
community
related
health.
M
M
We
already
have
a
mechanism
for
that
we've
had
it
for
a
few
years
now
we
already
have
a
lot
of
community-based
organizations
that
are
doing
violence,
prevention
and
intervention-related
work
on
the
streets
boots
on
the
ground
to
be
able
to
get
more
money
out
to
them
and
then
250
000
of
that
to
go
towards
group
violence,
intervention,
technical
assistance
because
we
are
implementing
through
investments
in
in
these
arpa
proposals,
a
new
version
of
group,
violence,
intervention,
gvi,
jr
and
so
being
able
to
have
national
technical
assistance
to
ensure
that
we
are
implementing
that
with
fidelity
to
make
sure
that
we're
getting
the
best
outcomes
in
in
working
with
council
members,
osman
and
gordon,
there
has
been
an
additional
five
hundred
thousand
dollars
invested
in
to
this
particular
appropriation
with
250
000
of
it
going
into
the
youth
and
community
health
fund
and
250
000
of
it
going
into
the
youth
violence.
M
Programs,
keep
saying
wellness
prevention
fund,
with
both
of
those
buckets
being
specially
geared
towards
cultural
districts,
to
ensure
that
that
we
are
getting
equitable
investment
across
the
city
in
both
health
and
public
safety
and
violence,
prevention
and
intervention
investment.
So
this
is
just
to
kind
of
help,
clarify
and
build
the
right
systems,
and
I
have
been
in
conversation
with
health
staff.
M
I
have
been
in
conversation
with
the
necessary
stakeholders
related
to
this,
and
so
we're
all
feeling
really
good
about
it
and
there's
a
lot
of
opportunity
for
some
really
big
impact
here.
So
I
will
open
it
up
to
see
if
my
colleagues,
my
co-authors,
have
anything
to
add-
and
I
see
some
folks
maybe
are
in
cube.
So
thank
you,
mr
chair.
B
Thank
you
very
much.
Councilman
cunningham,
I
actually
don't
see
anyone
else
in
queue,
and
so
with
that
with
no
further
questions
or
comments
from
my
colleagues
I
will
the
amendment
is
before
us
and
I
will
ask
the
clerk
to
call
the
role.
C
E
B
B
And
so
we
have
one
more
motion
and
then
we
will
take
up
the
the
motion
that
we
we
were
discussing
earlier
by
councilmember
cunning
by
councilmember
fletcher.
But
right
now
we
have
a
motion
by
councilmember,
cunningham
and
I'll
invite
councilmember
cunningham
to
speak
to
this
motion
and
yeah.
Please
yeah
before.
M
Thank
you.
I've
been
very
busy
the
past
week
and
a
half
and
so
sorry
to
be
taking
up
so
much
space
today.
But
this
is
the
last
thing
for
me.
So
very
excitingly.
The
health
department
did
receive
a
half
a
million
dollar
grant
to
address
the
request.
That
was
in
the
original
mayor's
proposal
around
community
health.
M
I'm
sorry
community
food
needs
so
based
on
the
conversations
that
I've
had
with
various
food
shelf
operators
that
the
demand
that
they've
experienced
from
kobit
19
has
been
so
vast
that
they're
having
a
hard
time
maintaining
operating
costs.
It's
like
they're,
very
inundated
and
it's
hard
for
them
to
like
it's
hard
for
them
to
keep
their
doors
open,
essentially
because
of
the
fact
that
the
demand
has
been
so
significant
and
they
can't
they're
not
exactly
generating
revenue
from
it,
so
they're
having
a
hard
time.
M
So
so
what
I
am
doing
through
this
amendment
is
essentially
taking
off
the
additional
parameters
that
were
on
the
original
proposal
and
having
it
be
all
available
for
operating
costs
with
food
shelves
and
distribution
systems
and
and
really
concentrate
those
in
minneapolis
food
deserts.
The
the
investments
in
those
areas-
so
this
is
just
kind
of
taking
off
some
of
the
parameters
in
in
helping
to
guide
operating
costs
in
specifically
in
food
desert,
so
but
that
was
mr
chair
I'll
pass
it
back.
Thank
you.
B
Thank
you
very
much.
Are
there
any
questions
for
this
amendment.
B
All
right
not
seeing
any
I'll
first
say
that
we've
been
rejoined
by
councilmember
goodman,
as
evidenced
by
the
last
royal
call,
I
believe,
but
I
forgot
to
mention
that
welcome
back
councilman
goodman
and
with
that
I
will
ask
her
to
please
call
the
role
on
this
amendment.
B
E
B
Are
13
eyes
motion
carries
with
that.
We
will
go
back
to
amendment
number
two
by
councilmember
fletcher
and
I
believe
that
there
is
a
revised
version
of
that
amendment,
but
I'm
happy
to
be
corrected.
Governor
fletcher,
please
yeah
thanks
for
please.
A
Thank
you,
mr
chair.
I'm
aware
that
staff
are
working
to
make
amendments.
They
put
one
draft
in
front
of
me
just
a
few
moments
ago
that
I
was
not
comfortable
with,
and
so
I'm
not
sure
that
I've
even
seen
the
language
that
is
up
on
the
screen.
A
The
public
is
seeing
the
sausage
making
process
in
real
time
where
council
members
names
are
added
to
procedural
motions
generated
by
staff
when
they
are
the
chair,
or
in
this
case
the
finance
subcommittee
chair,
and
I
will
ask
the
staff
who
have
been
working
on
this
to
speak
to
the
current
status
of
the
motion,
particularly
in
relationship
to
the
concern
I
raised
over
email
10
minutes
ago.
B
All
right
thank.
E
You
I'm
also
happy
to
help.
You
know
talk
through
this
or
answer
any
questions
after
steph,
maybe
kicks
it
off.
B
B
I
Yes,
mr
chair,
madam
president
and
council
member
fletcher
we're
working
to
put
together
a
process
that
started
with
funding
that
is
coming
to
the
city
through
the
american
rescue
plan
act
off
arpa,
which
has
been
the
primary
focus,
and
the
original
motion
was
delegating
to
the
city's
finance
officer.
Designee,
the
purchasing
department
division
director,
the
authority
to
expend
those
monies
within
policy
parameters
that
are
set
by
the
mayor
and
council
in
order
to
expedite
the
release
of
arpa
funds
to
community
organizations
directly.
I
So
it
really
minimizes
the
time
that
normally
would
be
spent
through
the
council's
process
through
delegating
that
authority
to
the
city's
finance
officer.
And
our
intention
was
to
provide
a
working
group
composed
of
elected
officials,
the
mayor's
office
and
then
from
the
council.
The
chair
of
the
council's
finance
subcommittee
under
the
policy
government
oversight
committee
and
the
budget
committee,
so
that
those
three
elected
officials
had
an
oversight
of
the
work
by
the
staff
to
review
and
approve
those
expenditures
and
the
approval
of
those
contracts.
I
I
It
would
also
allow
another
check,
which
is
that
the
finance
officer
and
the
procurement
division
would
prepare
a
weekly
report
which
would
be
received
and
filed
through
the
council's
regular
process
for
public
notice,
accuracy
entrance
or
access
and
transparency,
so
that
there
was
still
a
public
record
of
the
expenditure
of
those
arpa
dollars,
even
as
we
were
expediting
the
process
of
getting
the
funding
out
to
the
community.
So
I
believe
in
the
draft
that
was
before
the
council
number
two,
which
is
listed
as
american
rescue
plan
act.
I
That
process
is
clearly
delineated,
that
the
council
is
establishing
that
ad
hoc
work
group
that
I
described
and
that
that
group
consisting
of
the
mayor
and
those
council
members
chairing
the
finance
subcommittee
and
budget
committee,
would
be
the
members
of
that
ad
hoc
work
group
to
oversee
the
work
of
the
finance
officer
and
designee
in
approving
and
expediting
arpa
contracts.
I
Each
week,
the
procurement
division
would
prepare
a
weekly
report
to
the
finance
officer
detailing
all
of
the
arpa
contracts
that
are
to
be
recommended
for
approval.
The
finance
officer
would
review
that
list
with
the
work
group
before
final
execution
of
any
of
those
contracts
with
the
workers
approval.
Those
contracts
could
be
expedited
and
completed,
and
then
a
full
report
would
be
filed
with
the
full
city
council.
I
So
that's
the
process
detailed
for
arpa
funding
this
morning
there
were
some
additional
concerns
about
the
ability
for
the
cped
department
or
community
planning
economic
development
department
to
extend
dollars
not
necessarily
tied
to
arpa,
but
federal
funding
monies
that
are
allocated
to
the
city
for
the
purpose
of
really
addressing
rental
assistance,
mortgage
assistance
and
emergency
response
to
homelessness.
These
are
through
the
forms
of
federal
emergency
rental
assistance,
esgcv
and
cdbgcv
fundings.
I
So,
similarly,
the
process
that
staff
wanted
to
mirror
here
was
a
delegation
of
authority
to
expedite
the
approval
of
those
funds
and
the
execution
of
any
contracts
or
expenditure
of
dollars
from
those
federal
programs,
very
specifically
tied
to
those
federal
funding,
sources
and
the
purposes
of
those
sources,
and
that
that
would
be
done
by
the
finance
officer.
Also
in
conjunction
with
this
work
group
that
we
are
creating
for
the
arpa
dollars.
I
So
really,
I
think
here
we
haven't
crafted
the
motion,
but
the
intent
is
that
these
federal
funds
that
are
coming
through
to
the
city
for
these
very
specific
and
prescribed
purposes
related
to
arpa
or
related
to
rental
assistance,
mortgage
assistance
and
emergency
response
to
homelessness
tied
to
those
federal
dollars
that
the
city
receives
could
be
expedited
by
waiving
the
normal
council
process,
which
can
take
up
to
a
month
and
saving
that
time
by
having
a
staff
expedite
that
work.
I
With
the
oversight
of
that
working
group
composed
of
the
mayor
and
the
two
council
members,
I
mentioned
so
working
to
correct
the
draft
motion
to
show
that
all
of
those
funds
are
subject
to
that
process,
and
I
believe
that
perhaps
cfo
dushani
dai
might
be
able
to
answer
additional
questions
about
that.
Also,
I
believe
director
brennan
from
cped
is
on
the
call
and
can
also
speak
to
those
needs
within
respective
to
her
department
and,
of
course,
the
attorneys
who
have
been
working
with
us
furiously
to
bring
this
draft
motion
forward.
I
B
You
so
much,
mr
carl,
I
I
have
a
question
and
a
potential
resolution,
but
before
I
ask
my
questions,
I
will
call
on
council
president
vendor.
E
Thanks,
mr
chair,
so
I
think
the
clerk
just
described
the
change
that
council
member
fletcher
was
referring
to,
which
was
to
ensure
that
all
this
whole
bucket
of
money
was
subject
to
the
committee
process,
with
the
reporting
back
to
the
council,
as
was
described
in
part
two,
but
not
in
part.
One
is
that
correct,
and
my
understanding
is
that
someone
is
writing
in
a
revised
version
of
this
now.
Okay,
so.
E
I
realized
that
this
feels
less
complete
than
some
of
the
other
work
items
as
we
all
work
together
to
react
to
the
various
elements
of
this
process.
I
do
want
to
say
that
you
know.
For
the
last
year
plus,
we
have
been
under
a
procurement
regulation
which
gave
significant
authority
to
the
mayor
to
approve
contracts
that
would
normally
go
through
the
council
process,
so
normally
contracts
over
175
000
go
through
the
council
for
approval
or
authorization
for
them.
E
Expedited
procurement
process
for
the
federal
dollars,
but
it's
more
narrow
to
to
just
those
funds
than
the
existing
regulation
has
been,
and
it
includes
this
report
back
mechanism.
E
We
had
been
getting
brief
reports
on
the
procurement
which
are
included
in
each
of
the
covid
reports
from
the
mayor,
so
you
can
go
back
into
limbs
and
see
see
those
written
verbal
reports,
written
reports
and
some
of
them
are
verbal
related
to
the
procurement
regulation.
E
So
I
think
there
were
really
good
questions
earlier
about
the
amount
of
money
that
this
applies
to,
which
is
a
very
significant
amount
of
money
and
the
you
know
policy
question
about
how
much
authority
do
we
want
to
give
to
staff
to
to
spend
the
money
versus
our
normal
process,
which
brings
out
you
know
a
lot
of
this
through
council
separately.
E
I
think,
given
the
urgency
of
the
need
and
community
that
there
that
there
is
a
strong
case
to
be
made
for
expediting
this
spending,
I
feel
comfortable
with
the
check
points
that
have
been
put
into
place
with
this
as
one
of
the
council
members
that
was
involved
in
reviewing
all
of
the
hiring
waivers
in
2020.
It's
actually
a
significant
amount
of
work,
so
I
appreciate
the
council
members
who
are
in
the
chair
roles
of
the
of
the
budget
finance
committee
being
willing
to
put
in
that
time.
E
I
trust
those
council
members
to
flag
anything.
They
think
would
need
to
come
to
council
for
approval,
which
is
how
the
process
is
laid
out.
If
any
of
the
members
of
the
group
say
hey.
Actually,
this
needs
more
explanation.
This
needs
more
public
scrutiny.
This
needs
more
time
that
would
come
to
council
as
it
usually
would.
E
B
Chair
you,
council,
president
bender,
I
have
a
question
for
the
clerk
and
it's
maybe
kind
of
a
technical
question,
and
I
also
just
want
to
say
for
the
public
mr
carl
has
is
I'm
witnessing
him
balance
two
very
different
items,
very
complex
items
in
real
time
in
our
email
here,
and
so
we
should
all
commend
the
clerk,
for
you
know
his
focus
and
attention
to
these
details
and
I'm
wondering
because
the
language
has
been
adjusted
so
recently
and
because
the
author
of
the
amendment
is
still
making
determinations
about
their
approval
of
this
of
this
language.
B
Is
there
any
way
that
we
could
do
essentially
the
equivalent
of
forwarding
this
without
recommendation
and
resolving?
Maybe
some
of
these
issues
and
concerns
before
by
tomorrow?
Okay,
so
I'll
I'll
I'll?
I'm
not
going
to
propose
that
yet
because
I
see
that
the
author
is
in
queue,
but
I
just
wanted
to
articulate
that
and
and
pose
it
as
a
potential
solution.
But
with
that
I'll
call
on
councilmember
fletcher.
A
I
was,
in
fact
in
queue,
mr
chair,
to
make
exactly
that
motion.
I
I
I
think
that's
the
right
thing
to
do.
I
want
to
give
myself
a
chance
to
review
the
proposed
changes
to
the
language.
I
want
to
give
staff
the
opportunity
to
get
the
details
right
on
this,
because
it
is
very
important.
We
are
talking
about
delegating
procurement
authority,
even
with
some
more
checks
and
balances
than
we've
had
on
that
during
the
state
of
emergency.
A
This
is
still
something
we
should
take
seriously
and
make
sure
we
get
right
and
I
don't
think
it's
possible
with
the
kind
of
last
minute
changes,
I'm
not
going
to
pretend
that
I've
had
a
chance
to
review
and
ask
questions
about
the
changes
that
have
been
proposed
while
I've
simultaneously
been
in
this
meeting.
So
yes,
I'm
I.
I
am
moving
that
we
forward
this
without
recommendation
to
council
tomorrow,
to
give
everybody
22
additional
hours
to
figure
out
what
we
think
about
this.
B
Thank
you,
councilmember
fletcher.
I
I
agree
that
this
this
is
complex,
but
it's
also
incredibly
important
speed
and
this
process
is
important,
but
but
so
is
accountability.
Council
president
and
bender,
I
see
that
you
you're
in
queue.
E
E
I
think
it
was
important
to
bring
this
today
and
have
this
discussion,
because
it
is
a
significant
decision
and
I
think
important
to
not
just
bring
you
know
directly
to
council.
So
you
know
I
I
don't
know
if
we
have
heard
we
heard
a
bit
from
ms
dye
earlier.
E
I
guess
I
would
just
say
if
there
are
any
kind
of
specific
questions
now,
it's
maybe
worth
asking
them
here
in
this
context,
as
you
know,
and
then
certainly
take
it
up
for
tomorrow's
meeting
and
then
I
did
want
to
say,
I
think
we're
close
to
an
agreement
with
the
mayor
to
bring
for
him
to
do
a
call
for
an
emergency
meeting.
We
had
hoped
that
that
would
be
starting
soon,
but
I
it's
going
it.
There
needs
to
be
an
hour.
E
Notification
looks
like
the
clerk
has
an
update
about
that,
and
part
of
that
decision
is
about
the
procurement
regulation
that
is
in
place,
but
ending
today
absent
action.
B
So
before
we
take
up
this
motion,
I
will
call
on
the
city,
clerk
casey,
carl
and
professional
juggler.
I
I'm
sorry,
mr
chair,
I
I
just
wanted.
While,
while
we're
in
a
public
forum,
I
did
just
send
the
mayor's
call
for
a
special
emergency
meeting
at
12
30
today
to
all
council
members.
Our
communications
department
will
be
circulating
that
to
all
local
news
media,
but
because
this
is
a
public
forum,
it's
a
good
opportunity
for
us
just
to
announce
that
publicly
and
we'll
put
that
out
through
social
media
and
also
our
gov
delivery
channels.
Because
of
the
emergency
nature
of
this,
there
is
not
a
longer
notice
requirement.
I
Other
than
making
good
faith
effort
so
announcing
that
during
this
meeting,
which
is
a
public
forum,
is
another
means
for
us
to
say
that
in
approximately
an
hour
at
12
30,
the
city
council
will
have
a
special
emergency
meeting
at
which
point
to
take
up
consideration
of
a
resolution
that
would
extend
certain
emergency
regulations
promulgated
by
mayor
frye
during
the
declared
state
of
emergency.
I
B
Thank
you,
mr
carl.
I
really
appreciate
that
announcement
and
so
with
that
the
motion
to
forward
amendment
number
two
without
recommendation
is
before
us.
I'm
not
seeing
any
further
questions
from
my
colleagues
and
so
I'll.
Ask
the
clerk
to
please
call
the
role
on
that
motion.
B
B
And
that
motion
carries-
and
I
want
to
thank
everyone
for
the
discussion
that
we
were
able
to
have
on
that
motion.
That
concludes
all
of
our
prepared
amendments
for
this
meeting.
B
B
Not
seeing
anyone
put
themselves
in
queue,
we've
all
learned
our
lesson
from
last
meeting.
So
I'm
grateful
for
that,
and
so
with
that,
we've
concluded
this
committee's
work
on
the
2021
budget
revisions
related
to
funding
from
the
american
rescue
plan
act.
I
will
move
approval
of
the
general
appropriation
resolution
as
amended
to
the
full
city
council,
for
its
consideration
at
its
regular
meeting,
scheduled
for
tomorrow,
tomorrow,
friday
july,
2nd
and
may
I
have
a
second
to
that
motion.
B
Second,
second,
that
motion
has
been
seconded.
Is
there
any
discussion?
Is
there
any
final
discussion.
B
I'm
I'm
putting
myself
in
cue,
and
I
I
apologize
to
do
this
to
my
colleagues
I'll,
keep
it
pretty
brief.
You
know,
for
the
sake
of
moving
the
meeting
along
well
and
and
smoothly,
I
wanted
to
make
sure
that
I
made
this
motion,
but
I
also
do
plan
to
vote
against
this
motion
and
I
wanted
to
be
able
to
explain
shortly
why
I
don't
have
some
big
speech
prepared.
In
short,
I
I
think
that
this
process
was
incredibly
fast.
B
A
couple
of
my
colleagues
have
noted
that
council
vice
president
noted
that,
and
that
being
said,
I
think
that
the
proposal
wasn't,
we
were
not
able
to
vet
it
quite
enough
for
it
to
be
a
document
and
for
it
to
be
a
plan
that
really
serves
the
public.
B
In
my
opinion,
I
think
that
every
single
one
of
the
amendments
that
my
colleagues
brought
forward
has
improved
the
mayor's
arpa
funding
proposal,
but
in
a
process
where
we
are
looking
at
99
million
dollars,
plus
where
we
usually
have
the
entire
fall
to
review
late
summer
and
fall
to
review,
you
know
change
items
that
that
will
often
amount
to
to
this.
B
To
this
amount,
I
felt
like
the
process
was
incredibly
fast,
and
I
commend
all
of
us
for
doing
our
best
to
make
it
work.
There
were
some
hiccups
along
the
way.
There
were
some
disagreements
about
how
we
should
proceed.
B
There
was
a
lack
of
clarity
about
the
process
as
we
were,
making
it
up
as
we
as
we
went
along
and
trying
to
have
some
accountability
as
we
went
along,
but
I
just
wanted
to
explain
that
to
my
colleagues
and
to
the
public
and
I'll
see
if
there's
any
further
discussion,
I
don't
see
any,
and
so
I
will
ask
the
clerk
to
please
call
the
roll.
K
C
B
D
Thank
you,
councilmember
ellison.
The
biz
committee
is
bringing
15
items
forward
for
approval
tomorrow,
items

and

yards
on

license
and
entertainment
item.

is
a
land
sale
item.

is
a
land
sale
for
the
satori
boutique

item,

looks

a
whole
bunch
of
I'm
not
sure
if
you
don't
read
through
it,
but
this
is
a
huge
deal.
This
is
our
minneapolis
homes,
land
sales
and
financing
awards.
D
This
is
62
homes
that
are
going
to
be
sold
to
with
a
preference
agreement,
and
also
many
of
the
homes
are
net
zero,
as
well
as
others
that
are
energy
star
certified.
A
lot
of
this
money
is
going
to
bypack
developers
in
the
community.
This
is
one
of
the
largest
land
sales
and
financing
awards.
We've
done
for
single
family
home
ownership
for
people
of
color
in
the
city.
So
it's
a
big
deal.
If
you
haven't
had
the
opportunity
to
read
the

I
think
it
will
really
be
impressive
to
you
item

that's

Mr
chair,
I
stand
for
questions.
B
Thank
you,
mr
thank
you,
mr
chancellor
wright.
I
real
quick,
we'll
speak
to
the
I-94
252
amendment.
I
will
be
bringing
some
amendments
to
the
draft
purpose
and
need
tomorrow
and
so
I'll
make
sure
that
my
colleagues
have
a
draft
of
that.
So
thank
you.
Seeing
no
further
questions
on
that
committee
report.
We
will
move
to
the
audit
committee
chaired
by
councilmember
paul
masano.
F
Thank
you,
mr
chair.
There
is
nothing
the
audit
committee
needs
to
bring
to
council
this
friday.
Our
audit
committee
met
this
week
and
went
through
usual
items
of
business,
like
auditor
updates
revisions
to
the
schedule
of
the
work
plan,
but,
very
importantly,
we
received
filed
and
published
the
police
department's
field
training
officer
program
audit.
F
So
just
if
to
say
a
couple
brief
words
about
that,
because
I
think
it's
of
great
interest
to
a
lot
of
us.
These
recommendations
that
come
out
in
this
audit
report.
They
focus
on
transparency
both
to
our
first
responders
on
how
they
should
expect
to
be
trained,
but
also
to
the
public
on
how
they
should
expect
to
be
served.
F
You
know
we
continue
to
ask
more
and
more
of
our
officers
as
we
face
a
staffing
shortage,
and
this
is
felt
especially
hard
in
the
fto
program,
as
trainers
are
asked
to
train
more
officers
than
they
have
the
capacity
for
so
you
know.
I
think
this
may
be
highlights
that
we
cannot
continue
to
lose
good
trainers
to
burn
out
and
rely
on
people
less
qualified
to
then
fill
backfill
that
these
new
guidelines
that
could
go
into
place
with
these
new
guidelines
that
could
go
into
place.
F
We
can
continue
to
reshape
our
police
department
to
fit
the
vision
of
procedural
justice
and
equitable
service
that
chief
eridando
has
laid
out
so
combined
combining
these
recommendations
with
the
mayor's
recruitment
push.
I
think
we
will
be
able
to
make
improvements
in
our
training
about
the
kinds
of
values
that
we
want
to
see
in
this
department
in
an
entirely
new
generation
of
officers.
So
I'm
very
excited
about
the
results
of
this
audit.
B
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
I
see
we
have
a
few
questions
from
council
members
and
so
I'll
start
with
council
member
gordon.
L
L
It's
unfortunate
that
we
can't
maybe
get
a
better
review
of
the
report,
but
I
I
suspect
we
could
bring
this
to
a
committee
and
I'm
of
a
mind.
It
might
be
great
to
have
more
transparency
and
light
shining
on
it
and
opportunity
to
gather
input
and
strengthen
it
and
have
it
be
a
city
policy
so
that
we
could
influence
this
program
and
make
sure
that
it
does
well
to
the
future.
L
But
that
said,
I
think
it's
fantastic
that
we're
getting
this
done,
we're
going
to
be
able
to
look
at
it,
people
can
see
it
and-
and
we
have
a
chance
to
really-
I
think
if
we
can
leverage
all
the
will-
that
we
have
to
improve
things,
improve
this
ftao
program
and
make
sure
that
it
is
much
more
effective
than
it
has
been
in
the
past.
So
I
appreciate
that
I
look
forward
to
digging
into
the
details
and
seeing
real
results
coming
out
of
the
police
department.
P
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
chair
ellison.
I
also
just
want
to
thank
the
the
audit
team
and
audit
staff
for
doing
this
report.
I
do
want
to
point
out
to
my
colleagues
there
are.
I
would
take
the
time
to
read
the
report.
It
is
missing
some
key
things
like
it
has
been
over
a
year
since
the
world
watched
field,
training
off
former
field,
training
officer,
derek
showman,
murdered
george
floyd.
The
report
does
not
get
into
what
led
up
to
that.
What
failures
of
supervision
and
discipline
led
to
that
action?
P
It
also
does
not
talk
about
how
we
are
going
to
stop
that
from
happening
in
the
future.
It's
also
unfortunate
that
this
has
taken
over
a
year
for
the
city
council
to
get
wrecked.
Well,
actually,
since
the
city
council
can't
take
actions
on
mpd,
it's
unfortunate
that
the
city
can't
see
what
recommendations
would
be
there,
but
that
said,
while
I
wish
there
had
been
more
proactive
action,
I'm
very
glad
that
we
have
the
report
now.
A
Thank
you,
mr
chair,
and
thank
you
to
council
member
paul
masano
as
chair
of
the
audit
committee
for
bringing
this
forward.
I'm
really
glad
that
the
audit
committee
is
looking
at
this.
I
was
you
know
it's
funny
how
two
people
reading
the
same
report
can
draw
different
conclusions,
because
I
I
would
not
have
characterized
this
as
a
a
sort
of
positive
recommendation
about
transparency
and
wellness.
A
I
thought
it
was
a
fairly
damning
report
about
the
failure
of
our
city
to
create
a
structure,
to
create
standards,
to
create
oversight,
to
create
a
process
for
filing
complaints.
A
If
there
were
problems
to
create
consistent
expectations
of
what
this
fto
program
is
it's
a
critical
part
of
our
training
and
our
audit
team
did
an
excellent
job
of
exposing
significant
process
flaws
that
really
reflect
a
failure
of
attention
and
a
failure
of
implementation
of
of
this
critical
function
of
training
by
our
chief
and
our
mayor,
going
back
many
chiefs
and
many
mayors
right.
This
is
a
program
that
that
just
really
has
not
been
been
held
to
account
or
or
been
given
the
structure
and
supervision.
A
It
would
need
to
be
successful,
and
that's
literally
why
we
have.
Our
audit
committee
is
to
identify
places
where
there
are
process
gaps
in
our
city.
This
clearly
is
one
and
I
think
it's
very
important
that
we
understand
it
as
such.
I
would
encourage
everybody
to
read
the
report,
because
it's
very
explicit
in
very
dry
technical
language:
it's
not
a
dramatic
page
turner,
but
but
in
very
dry
technical
language.
It's
very
clear
that
our
processes
are
lacking.
It
makes
recommendations
that
I'm
hopeful
will
follow
that.
A
I
know
the
mayor
and
the
chief
communicated
their
intention
to
make
improvements
moving
forward.
So
I
suppose
we
can
find
a
note
of
hope
in
that,
but
I
think
it's
important
that
in
our
role
as
audit
committee,
we
hold
up
the
real
findings
of
of
challenges
and
problems
that
exists
within
the
fto
system,
and
this
was
very
important
work
and
I'm
grateful
to
the
audit
team
for
bringing
forward
a
very
clear-headed,
precise,
accurate
description
of
a
program
that
is
in
significant
need
of
improvement.
B
Thank
you,
councilmember
fletcher,
seeing
no
further
comments
I'll,
take
those
as
comments
and
thank
you
all
that
completes
our
work
today.
So
without
objection.
I
will
declare
this
meeting
adjourned
and
see
you
all
shortly
at
the
emergency
council
meeting.
Thank.
