E
Thank
you,
councilmember
fletcher.
I
would
like
to
pull
out
the
item,
the
recast
item.
I
have
a
couple
of
questions
about
it,
I'm
going
to
vote
in
favor
of
it,
but
I
just
wanted
to
discuss
it
really
briefly
here
with
colleagues
and
the
public,
given
the
great
sensitivity
around
38th
in
chicago
and
the
deep
need
for
trauma
response.
B
B
Seeing
none
clerk?
Please
call
the
role
on
items
two
through
four.
D
C
B
E
Thank
you,
mr
chair.
So
if
city
staff
who
are
leading
this
initiative,
could
please
be
ready,
I
my
questions
pertain
to
the
to
the
current
work
that
this
program
or
initiative
is
able
to
do
right
now
for
people
who
are
experiencing
deep
stress
and
trauma
and
shock
at
38th
and
chicago.
E
I
know
that
we
we've
been
meeting
about
it
and
at
the
last
briefing
about
a
day
or
two
ago,
I
completely
forgot
to
bring
it
up
at
that
meeting
and
and
was
really
glad
to
see
it
on
the
agenda
today,
because
these
these
resources
are
quite
large.
This
is
a
pretty
significant
grant.
E
You
know,
for
potentially
a
five-year
grant
one
million
dollars
each
each
year
so
would
be
great
to
hear
how
those
resources
are
being
deployed
to
the
needs
at
38th
in
chicago
and
and
what
the
anticipated
future
timeline
for
this
new
grant
would
be
and
what
it
would
be
primarily
funding
at
the
city
or
or
in
in
community.
B
Thank
you,
councilmember
connor
has
raised
a
question
to
the
staff
associated
with
the
recast
program.
Is
there
anybody
present
who's
available
to
answer
those
questions.
B
Move
on
to
the
other
two
discussion
items,
and
I
wonder
if
the
clerk's
office
can
help
us
contact
recast
staff
to
provide
an
answer
to
councilmember
connor's
questions.
F
G
B
B
H
The
health
department
is
the
applicant
for
the
new
grant,
but
was
not
an
applicant
for
the
grant
that
we
currently
have,
and
so
I
can't,
with
any
clarity
or
or
wisdom
answer
some
of
the
questions
about
our
current
grant.
H
So
just
why
I
didn't
weigh
in,
but
today
I
am
here
to
talk
about
our
monthly
covid
19
update
for
the
public
health
and
safety
committee,
and
it's
really
a
momentous
time
for
us
to
be
having
this
update,
as
it
has
been
essentially
a
year
since
kovid
made
its
appearance
both
in
terms
of
the
first
case.
H
I
think
we'll
go
to
the
first
slide.
If
you
would.
The
next
slide
first
case
and
first
death
in
minneapolis
occurred.
One
year
ago,
in
march,
and
since
march,
we
have
had
a
400
deaths
to
date,
which
is
more
than
one
death
per
day
every
day
for
the
last
year
because
of
this
pandemic,
and
we
know
that
there
have
been
so
many
disruptions
for
all
of
us
beyond
having
lost
loved
ones
lived
through
illnesses,
but
people's
incomes
have
been
severely
impacted,
their
ability
to
afford
food
and
housing.
H
We
are
planning
to
reflect
on
this
year
in
in
several
ways.
One
way
will
be
with
my
next
slide,
but
don't
go
there
quite
yet
nope
not
yet
keep
the
candle
invisible.
H
We
are
also
working
with
the
mayor's
office
to
do
a
proclamation
on
march
26th
and
to
ring
bells
in
the
city
hall
tower
and
to
light
up
the
35w
bridge
on
that
same
date,
which
is
very
close
to
the
anniversary
of
the
first
minneapolis
death
from
covid,
and
we
are
also
working
with
hennepin
county
on
recognition
that
they
are
planning
as
well,
so
that
we're
in
sync
and
then
we'll
be
planning
some
additional
ways
to
honor
some
of
those
in
the
community
that
have
been
so
instrumental
in
helping
us
get
through
this
pandemic.
H
But
one
small,
but
important
thing
that
we
can
do
today
is
just
to
pause.
The
the
pandemic
is
not
over,
but
I
think
it
does
help
us
to
mark
time
to
think
about.
H
H
Thank
you.
Let's
now
go
forward
and
think
about
some
of
the
statistics
of
what
we
have.
You
can
go
past
the
candle.
Thank
you.
So
this
graph
is
shows
us
where
we
are
in
terms
of
infection.
The
blue
line
is
the
city
of
minneapolis
we're
slightly
lower
than
the
state
and,
as
you
can
see,
compared
to
where
we
were
this
fall,
the
numbers
are
much
lower,
but
they
are
actually
at
a
fairly
significant
rate.
Nonetheless,
and
they
are
going
up,
they
have
been
plateauing
and
they
are
going
up
slightly.
H
So
the
seven
day
rolling
average
is
currently
eleven
per
hundred
thousand
we'd,
really
like
it
to
be
significantly
below
ten
and
for
the
state
it's
at
sixteen
per
hundred
thousand,
while
these
incur
well.
These
improvements
are
encouraging.
We
feel
very
tenuous
about
them
because
of
the
new
strains
that
are
circulating
in
minneapolis,
as
well
as
across
the
state.
These
variants,
coupled
with
increased
interactions
in
schools
and
through
sports
and
businesses
reopening,
can
reverse
our
progress
and,
as
we
are,
making
significant
gains
in
our
vaccinations,
we
still
know
that
about.
H
H
So
part
of
the
positive
scene,
it
has
to
do
with
a
third
vaccination
being
approved
by
the
federal
government.
There
were
limited
supplies
of
that
vaccine
available
right
away
and
now
there's
kind
of
a
delay
as
they
engage
in
more
manufacturing
and
so
right
now.
Johnson
johnson
is
not
widely
available,
but
it
is
a
very
encouraging
development,
not
only
because
it's
a
third
vaccine,
but
because
it
has
some
advantages
in
terms
of
storage
and
there's
only
one
dose
needed
before
one
is
fully
protected.
H
There
is
some
difference
in
terms
of
protection
from
these
vex
vaccines,
but
all
of
them
afford
really
high
protection
from
hospitalization
and
severe
illness,
and
the
cdc
is
recommending
that
the
best
vaccine
is
the
one
that's
in
your
arm.
So
when
we
have
opportunities,
I
urge
you
to
consider
taking
whichever
is
offered
to
you.
H
The
federal
vaccine
supply
is
increasing,
and
this
is
really
really
good.
Back
in
january,
they
were
shipping
about
eight
million
doses
per
week,
they're
currently
shipping
about
15
million
doses
per
week
and
that's
a
77
increase.
We
expect
another
third
more
to
be
coming
by
the
end
of
march.
H
We
have
been
hosting
vaccinations
clinics
this
week,
we're
holding
15
clinics
and
expect
to
vaccinate
or
administer.
H
1
600
doses
through
those
clinics.
Just
as
a
reminder,
we
are
one
of
many
vaccinators
and
we
are
using
our
vaccinations
to
try
and
fill
in
the
cracks,
but
healthcare
providers,
pharmacies
and
large-scale
vaccination
clinics
sponsored
by
the
state
are
all
happening.
Simultaneous
with
this
next
slide,.
H
For
example,
we
started
last
week
vaccinating
in
all
of
the
public
housing
high
rises
and
that
will
be
31
clinics
and
those
are
going
very
well
we're
working
with
community
groups
to
help
us
with
education
and
outreach,
and
even
volunteering
at
the
clinics
other
examples
of
how
we
are
focusing
on
the
bipac
community.
We
have
prioritized
metro
transit
drivers
as
folks
to
get
some
of
the
early
vaccines.
H
We
are
working
in
partnership
with
community
clinics
and
I
hope
also
to
be
working
with
bipac
businesses
to
do
vaccinations
as
front
line.
Workers
have
recently
been
identified
as
a
priority
group
and
are
planning
new
community-based
vaccination
sites
that
can
better
serve
communities
where
larger
numbers
of
bipac
community
are
in
residence.
H
For
example,
the
davis
center,
which
has
been
a
testing
site,
will
also
now
be
adding
vaccinations
opportunities
in
the
north
minneapolis
and
park
avenue.
United
methodist
in
the
potterhorn
neighborhood
is
also
one
of
our
new
contractors
for
vaccines.
We
don't
have
actual
clinics
planned
yet,
but
those
are
locations
that
I
think
will
will
be
great.
H
We
are
continuing
our
partnership
with
the
hennepin
healthcare
to
be
vaccinators
and
are
adding
another
vaccinator
partner
of
the
black
nurses
rock
again
feeling
that
that
will
help
us
expand
even
further
into
the
community
in
terms
of
both
capacity
and
relationships,
and
we
are
also
working
with
the
metropolitan
area
on
aging
to
conduct
more
community-based
vaccination
opportunities,
especially
for
homebound
and
disabled
seniors.
H
H
So
this
is
a
zip
coded
map
and
it
shows
us
the
vaccination
rate
for
adults
over
65,
and
so
you
can
see
there
are
several
zip
codes,
some
of
which
cross
borders
in
minneapolis
and
are
not
necessarily
entirely
in
minneapolis
but
who
are
have
received
less
than
70
percent
of
this
less
than
70
of
their
65
and
older
have
received
vaccine.
H
H
H
We're
working
closely
with
the
schools
as
they
begin
to
expand
their
in-person
teaching.
H
Governor
waltz
is
recommending
that
students
and
families
get
tested
every
two
weeks
from
now
through
the
end
of
the
school
year,
and
so
we're
hoping
that
that
increases
the
testing
that's
being
done
both
by
students
and
their
families,
and
so
we
are
also
trying
to
make
the
test
testing
opportunities
more
available
to
families
and
students
there.
H
H
It
is
now
in
hand,
and
so
we're
beginning
to
spend
that
we
also
anticipate
receiving
additional
federal
dollars
through
the
newly
enacted
american
rescue
plan.
Those
will
probably
flow
through
the
state
to
us,
so
it
may
take
a
bit
of
time,
but
some
of
those
dollars
are
available
for
contact
tracing
support,
vaccines,
vaccine
support
and
support.
Overall
growth
of
the
public
health
workforce.
H
And
next
slide,
please,
which
I
think
might
be
my
last
so
coming
up-
we
do
inc,
we
do
expect
much
a
significant
increase
in
vaccinations.
H
We
are
also
able
we
have
a
supply
of
masks
and
and
other
protective
equipment
that
we
plan
to
make
available
to
members
of
the
public
who
might
be
gathering
related
to
the
derek
chauvin
trial.
And,
of
course
we
will
provide
ongoing
support
to
the
schools
as
they
reopen
and
are
a
little
bit
concerned
about
spring
break.
H
H
B
Colleagues,
seeing
none
I'll,
just
ask
one
question
myself:
I
know
I've
gotten
a
couple
of
questions
from
constituents
as
they've
been
contacted
by
their
clinics
about
how
people
are
accessing
vaccinations
if
they
don't
have
a
regular
provider
who
would
know
to
contact
them,
and
I
think
that's
particularly
salient
for
the
unsheltered
homeless
population
in
our
city.
B
I'm
really
appreciative
that
you're
doing
the
work
you're
doing
in
public
housing
and
in
in
some
contexts,
but
I'm
especially
curious
about
how
people
who
are
in
the
shelter
system
how
people
who
are
in
transitional
housing
are
getting
access
to
vaccines
and
particularly
given
that
their
heightened
risk
of
exposure.
So.
H
Yes,
thank
you,
chair
fletcher.
We
are
working
with
hennepin
county
and
because
they
have
quite
a
robust
health
care
for
the
homeless
program.
They
have
agreed
to
do
vaccination
of
homeless,
unsheltered,
homeless
population
and
the
homeless
population
that
might
be
in
shelters,
and
so
that
is
a
an
effort.
H
That's
already
happened
round
one
and
will
continue
to
happen
as
as
new
individuals
are
identified
in
that
population
in
terms
of
if
people
don't
have
a
a
health
care
provider
and
yet
are
either
already
eligible
for
a
vaccine
or
hope
to
be
soon.
The
state
does
have
a
registry
that
we
encourage
people
to
to
go
and
and
put
put
their
name
in
it
will
help
you
identify
when
you
are
eligible.
H
H
It's
it's
not
a
panacea
in
terms
of
finding
the
vaccine,
but
it's
a
very
good
resource
to
make
sure
that
you're
you're
on
the
list-
and
you
know
when
you're
eligible-
and
you
have
that
to
take
with
you
to
any
of
the
clinics
like
we
are
providing
or
that
pharmacies
are
providing
and
to
some
extent
the
community
clinics
are
providing
to
people
who
aren't
their
patients
at
the
present
time,
but
are
are
eligible.
Nonetheless,.
B
Thank
you,
councilman
mcconnell
has
a
question.
G
Hi
there
can
you
hear
me?
Yes,
okay,
okay
great,
so
I
just
wanted
to
go
back
to
the
recast
conversation.
Thank
you
for
addressing
it,
commissioner.
Music.
Can't
yeah.
B
I'm
sorry
councilmember
we'll
come
back
to
that
after
the
after
we
receive
and
file
this
presentation,
but
we're
still
on
the
the
covid
presentation
at
this
time.
B
Good,
I
don't
see
any
other
comment
on
the
coven
19
update,
so
I
will
just
reiterate
our
gratitude
to
the
health
department.
Thank
you
for
helping
us
mark
the
occasion
of
some
tremendous
losses
that
our
city
has
suffered.
B
Thank
you
for
helping
us
avoid
those
losses,
moving
forward
to
the
extent
that
you
have-
and
we
are
excited
to
be,
as
you
said,
getting
shots
actually
in
our
arms
and
getting
back
out
into
community
with
each
other,
thanks
in
no
small
part
to
the
work
of
you
and
your
department.
So
thank
you,
commissioner
musicant,
for
this
presentation
and
for
your
work,
see
without
objection.
B
I
will
order
the
clerk
to
receive
and
file
this
report
that
is
filed
and
we
will
move
back
to
item
number
one.
I
understand
that
noyah
woodrich
is
now
on
the
line
to
respond
to
councilmember
cono's
question
I'll
call
on
councilmember
connor.
G
Thank
you,
mr
chair.
I
apologize
about
that.
I
I
had
heard
the
commissioner
address
recast,
so
I
thought
we
could
just
kind
of
go
back
to
that.
So
thank
you
for
for
keeping
order
here.
Yes,
either
to
the
commissioner
or
to
the
to
ms
woodridge
curious
about
if
there's
supports
or
services
available
through
recast
now
for
the
communities
at
38th
and
chicago,
I
know
that
there
there's
a
network
of
healers
and
trauma
response
community
members
who
are
engaged,
but
I'm
not
quite
sure
how
we
can
resource
them.
G
Specifically,
you
know
I
reached
out
to
resma
manikam
and
to
suzanne
keplinger
at
catalyst,
minneapolis
foundation,
and
they
are
connected
to
several
people
that
they
have
been
working
with
to
to
train
and
and
to
share
strategies
of
trauma
response,
and
certainly
when
I've
been
in
touch
with
the
folks
at
38th
and
chicago.
G
They
have
expressed
that
you
know
they're
they're
at
capacity
they're,
very
much
involved
in
responding
to
interrupting
the
violence,
that's
happening,
but
there's
not
a
lot
of
support
or
personnel
or
or
people
available
that
are
trained
in
whether
it's
psychological,
first
aid
or
cultural,
somatics
or
or
other
types
of
trauma
response
to
to
the
body
and
to
the
bodies
who
are
there
on
site
experiencing
and
watching
and
absorbing
everything.
That's
happening
there.
G
So
so
I
knew
that
we
had
some
monies
at
the
city
that
did
trauma
response
and
would
be
really
curious
about
how
those
resources
are
being
aligned
and
directed
to
the
site
to
the
area
of
38th
in
chicago
and
and
leveraging
our
existing
partnerships
there
and
then
would
also
love
to
hear
what
your
thoughts
are
about
the
grant
for
the
future.
G
I
wasn't
aware
that
we
were
switching
the
the
home
department.
I
I
thought
this
money
was
parked
in
the
city
coordinator's
office,
but
I'm
not
sure,
and
so
would
love
to
hear
if
the
health
department
is
taking
it
on
next
sort
of
what
what
does
that
mean
for
the
grant?
It's
like
I
mentioned
before.
It's
it's
a
pretty
sizable
grant
it's
a
pretty
meaningful
body
of
work,
and,
and
it
would
be
great
to
know
what
your
anticipation
is
for
that
future
for
that
future
body
of
work.
J
Member
connor
and
chair
fletcher,
yes,
the
current
recast,
grant
sits
in
the
coordinator's
office
with
the
office
of
race
and
equity
and
that
grant
runs
through
the
end
of
september
of
this
year.
The
one
that
we
applied
for
would
start
in
october
of
this
year.
If
we
are
successful
in
receiving
it,
I
can't
speak
to
any
work
that
the
office
of
race
and
equity
is
doing
with
the
recast
grant
during
these
times,
particularly
at
38th
in
chicago,
but
I
we
were
on
a
meeting.
J
J
When
I
was
approached
by
community
expressing
an
interest
to
work
with
the
city
on
making
the
application
for
the
recast
dollars,
I
approached
joy,
marsh
stevens
in
the
coordinator's
office,
the
office
of
race
and
equity,
to
inquire
as
to
whether
or
not
they
were
going
to
reapply
for
the
money
and
after
some
discussion
they
decided
that
they
were
not
going
to
reapply
and
so
that
opened
the
door
for
the
health
department
to
apply,
and
the
proposal
that
we
submitted
is
a
very
community
oriented.
J
So
if
we
were
to
receive
it,
it
would
be
one
million
dollars
a
year,
750
000
of
which
would
go
out
to
community
the
city.
We
would
be
responsible
for
coordinating
some
of
the
training
that
is
required
as
part
of
a
recast
grant,
but
really
all
of
the
trauma
and
mental
health
work
would
be
done
and
based
in
community.
And
if
you've
read
the
proposal,
you
will
notice
that
there
is
a
heavy
emphasis
on
the
native
community.
G
Absolutely
I
understand
and
thank
you
so
much
for
your
leadership
and
submitting
that
application.
I
was
involved
in
a
similar
process
where
we
had
hoped
to
submit
a
very
large
grant
request
to
to
re-grant
to
community,
but
we
did
not
have
the
the
wherewithal
and
the
stamina
to
complete
that
process.
So
I
commend
you
for
fighting
for
these
resources
for
community
members
who
oftentimes
don't
have
the
capacity
to
compete
for
such
large
grants.
So
I
appreciate
this
update.
Thank
you
for
letting
me
know
about
the
future
work.
G
I
look
forward
to
supporting
that
in
the
best
way
that
I
can
and
then
I'll
loop
back
with
the
city
coordinator's
office
about
sort
of
the
now
and
the
needs
we
we
should
be
meeting
today.
Thank
you.
B
Thank
you,
councilmember
condo.
Would
you
like
to
move
approval
of
this
item.
D
D
B
K
Good
afternoon,
chair
fletcher
and
council
members,
I'm
andrea
larson,
the
director
of
strategic
management
in
the
city
coordinator's
office,
I'm
here
with
our
team
today,
which
you
just
listed
many
of
us
present
to
provide
our
q1
update
on
the
work
around
alternatives
to
police
response,
but
also
on
a
couple
of
policy
analysis
areas
that
our
team
is
leading
next
slide.
Please.
K
First,
we'll
provide
some
updates
related
to
the
overall
public
safety
transformation
work
which
includes
our
office,
but
some
others
around
the
city
as
well.
I'm
including
two
of
the
studies
and
work,
we're
doing
developing
theories
of
change
and
then
we'll
provide
updates
for
each
of
the
pilots
and
projects
that
our
office
is
leading
and
supporting
next
slide.
Please
and
then
the
next
one.
After
that.
K
Before
we
start,
I
just
want
to
orient
us
around
the
public
safety
transformation
framework,
including
the
three
pillars
of
transformation,
prevention,
alternative
and
reform
and
the
work
across
and
within
the
pillars,
engagement
across
the
top
and
policy
analysis
across
the
bottom.
A
Thank
you,
andrea.
Thank
you,
chair
fletcher
members
of
the
committee
good
afternoon,
I'll
ask
the
tech
team
to
advance
one
more
slide.
Please,
and
I
will
talk
briefly
about
this.
First
item-
is
a
a
tool
that
we
anticipate
being
of
use
to
and
supporting
the
work
of
staff
in
all
of
the
areas
of
the
transforming
public
safety
framework
that
you
just
saw
a
moment
ago.
A
Why
are
we
doing
this?
Well?
The
long
story
short
is
that
a
theory
of
change
can
be
a
very
useful
tool,
for
a
number
of
different
purposes
can
help
us
to
identify
the
goals
of
an
initiative
and,
importantly,
to
communicate
them
really
concisely
to
stakeholders,
both
internal
and
external,
to
the
activities
that
are
happening.
A
It
can
also
help
us
prepare
for
evaluating
the
results
of
our
work
by
helping
us
have
a
really
clear
understanding
of
what
success
means
and
whether
some
of
the
dependencies
and
actions
along
the
way
are
happening
that
are
necessary
to
make
results
happen
at
the
end
of
a
set
of
work
and
all
sorts
of
other
uses.
So
hopefully
this
should
be
a
tool
that
is
applicable
both
for
staff
who
are
completing,
transforming
public
safety
work,
as
well
as
a
number
of
other
stakeholders
whose
experiences
are
touched
by
the
the
process.
Next
slide,
please.
A
A
In
some
cases,
it's
a
model
that
literally
connects
dots
and
draws
arrows
between
the
resources
and
activities
in
play
and
the
results
they're
expected
to
lead
to
next
slide.
Please
so
we're
working
to
draft
a
theory
of
change
with
key
staff
in
the
five
areas
of
work
that
you
saw
in
the
transforming
public
safety
framework.
That
again,
is
prevention,
reform,
alternatives,
community
engagement
and
policy
analysis.
A
What
you
see
on
the
screen
in
front
of
you
now
is
a
rough
timeline
of
that
work.
Work
that's
been
completed
to
date
and
work
that
we
expect
to
complete
in
the
next
month,
or
so
we're
focusing
on
working
with
key
staff
in
the
areas
of
the
framework,
because
it's
critical
to
make
sure
that
the
document,
at
least
initially
is
fully
representative
of
what
our
subject
matter.
A
So
what
we
might
see
out
of
this
process
in
the
spring
of
2021
is
not
necessarily
the
model
that
we
are
committed
to
for
the
rest
of
time,
but
it's
it's
a
really
important
starting
place
to
begin
with
our
subject
matter,
experts
and
their
understanding
of
their
work
next
slide.
Please
excuse
me
very
very
briefly
here
you
see
a
a
hypothetical
example
of
a
theory
of
change
to
give
those
of
us
who
are
visual
thinkers.
A
A
sense
of
what
I'm
talking
about
this
is
a
representation
of
a
fictional
tobacco
association
initiative,
and
you
see
the
set
of
boxes
in
the
middle,
something
very
much
like
transforming
public
safety,
a
number
of
different,
distinct
initiatives
that
all
together
are
building
toward
a
bigger
set
of
results
that
all
have
at
their
core
a
set
of
resources
coming
into
them.
That
may
be
shared,
maybe
just
distinct
among
the
initiatives,
but
that
all
are
pulling
together
to
reach
the
same
result
within
a
shared
context.
A
This
is
what
a
theory
of
change
expert
might
call
a
nested
ethereal
change,
and
we
expect
the
final
product
for
transforming
community
safety
work.
To
look
something
generally
like
this.
This
sort
of
nested
model
to
highlight
the
different
initiatives,
as
well
as
the
big
picture
objectives
of
all
the
work
together.
A
Next
slide,
please,
I
will
achieve
with
with
apologies.
I
will
change
gears
quite
abruptly
now
and
talk
about
a
second
project
in
in
this
area
of
public
safety
work,
the
minneapolis
police,
operational
assessment.
A
These
two
scopes
of
service
were
combined
through
a
waiver
process,
because
one
of
the
solicitations
did
not
result
in
potential
vendors
that
were
sufficiently
strong
and
the
other
solicitation
resulted
in
a
vendor
that
was
quite
strong
in
skills
and
experience
in
both
scopes
of
service.
So,
very
conveniently
for
us,
it
worked
out
to
amend
the
scope
of
service
and
amend
the
contract,
to
put
it
together
with
a
single
vendor.
A
So
the
two
generally
pieces
of
work
for
this
project
are
to
conduct
a
workload
based
staffing
analysis
for
how
we
meet
the
demand
for
service
that
is
currently
experienced
by
all
areas
of
the
minneapolis
police
department
and
to
review
the
use
and
prioritization
of
problem
nature
codes
problem.
Nature
codes
are
the
codes
that
are
assigned
at
dispatch
when
a
9-1-1
call
comes
in
to
describe
the
nature
of
the
problem.
A
A
Nor
is
it
expected
to
show
us
exactly
concretely
specifically
what
public
safety
functions
mpd
showed
or
should
not
perform
it
will
we
expect,
give
us
some
recommendations
on
both
of
those
topics,
but
it
will
be
one
of
a
number
of
tools
and
considerations
that
city
leaders
and
policy
makers
will
have
at
their
disposal
in
making
those
decisions
timing-wise.
We
expect
to
receive
those
recommendations
and
results
from
the
project
sometime
in
the
fall
of
2021.
A
I'll
also
note
one
other
thing
you
see
on
the
side
here
we
have
made
publicly
available
on
the
city's
website
the
timeline
for
the
city's
community
safety,
work
of
the
full
set
of
contract
documents
and
scopes
of
service
and
information
about
the
vendor,
so
that
members
of
the
public
can
review
that
at
their
at
their
leisure
next
slide,
please!
A
A
A
There's
not
likely
to
be
a
single
obvious
or
optimal
result,
so
there
will
be
I'm
sure,
more
factors
that
will
need
to
be
weighed
in
addition
to
the
results
of
the
study,
but
hopefully
it
will
help
us
along
the
way
to
making
those
decisions
next
slide.
Please
I
wanted
to
highlight
briefly
that
there
are
staff
all
around
the
enterprise
who
are
serving
as
points
of
contact
for
this
project.
A
This
means
that
they
are
have
made
themselves
available,
graciously
to
participate
or
give
input
as
needed,
for
instance,
folks,
who
are
the
managers
of
a
particular
data
set
that
is
needed
for
the
analysis
or
people
who
have
other
subject
matter,
expertise
that
may
factor
into
how
a
recommendation
gets
framed
down
the
road
or
who
may
be
needed
to
pull
in
by
the
vendors
research
team
for
an
interview
to
obtain
qualitative
data
next
slide,
please.
A
We
are
working
and
I
particularly
want
to
highlight
the
role
that
that
the
city's
information
technology
data
and
analytics
services
team
has
been
playing
in
helping
me
as
a
a
lowly
non-it
expert
contract
manager
to
help
identify
data
sources
and
the
critical
data
fields
within
those
sources
and
the
owners
of
those
data
sources
to
help
us
understand
what
we
have
and
what
we
can
provide
to
the
vendor.
A
There
is
another
thread
of
work
happening
to
respond
to
requests
by
the
vendor,
to
gather
data
for
their
analysis,
and
that
is
non-quantitative.
Data
sets
in
the
form
of
operating
documents
to
understand,
essentially
how
business
is
currently
done
around
public
safety,
as
well
as
setting
up
interviews
with
key
personnel,
some
of
whom
will
be
within
mpd,
many
of
whom
perhaps
will
be
with
nmpd,
as
well
as
other
departments
around
the
city
who
have
expertise
or
capacity
relevant
to
public
safety
services.
A
A
City
staff
will
review
those
that
all
will
happen.
We
expect
in
the
third
quarter
and
then
from
the
end
of
the
third
quarter
and
into
the
beginning
of
the
fourth
quarter.
We
can
expect
final
reporting
and
dissemination,
including
coming
back
to
this
committee
or
other
council
committees
or
wherever
you
wish,
at
your
discretion,
to
share
the
the
final
product
of
this
work.
A
Those
are
my
updates
for
today
today.
Next,
my
colleagues
will
be
sharing
updates
about
the
office
of
performance
and
innovations,
work,
piloting
and
implementing
alternative
emergency
response
services.
I
will
be
here
in
the
meeting
and
available
to
stand
for
questions
at
the
end
of
their
presentation.
Thank
you.
All.
B
D
I
appreciate
that
I
do
have
some
notes
and
might
have
been
able
to
wait,
but
it
might
be
more
timely
to
get
it
here.
I
have
three,
I
think,
questions
or
maybe
two
questions
and
one
suggestion
I
was
curious
about
when
we
went
out
for
the
two
contracts.
A
Yes,
chair,
fletcher,
councilmember
garden,
we
received,
I
believe,
eight
responses
to
the
staffing
and
efficiency
study
solicitation,
all
of
which
were
relatively
robust.
I
believe
we
received
two
responses
to
the
problem:
nature
code
study.
I
was
not
managing
that
process,
but
my
understanding
is
that
both
were
insufficient
for
the
city's
needs
for
the
problem.
Nature
code
study.
D
That
makes
sense
in
the
the
probably
the
problem
nature
code
study
seemed
smaller.
So
that's
it's
good
information
to
have.
K
If
I
could
chair
fletcher,
councilmember
gordon
I'll,
just
add
one
thing,
we
did
receive
two
for
the
private
nature
code
study.
Both
were
not
a
great
quality
and
also
well
over
our
budget,
so
that
made
it
made
it
an
even
easier
decision.
D
Well,
and
given
these
times,
I
think
we
at
the
table
where
I
sit,
I
always
like
to
hear
that
we
maybe
saves
a
little
money,
so
that's
another
plus.
I
also
wanted
to
ask
if
there's
been
any
discussion
in
terms
of
doing
the
study
of
interviewing
former
employees,
I
think
sometimes
we
can
get
really
valuable
information
and
I'm
sure
that
both
in
the
police
department
and
in
9-1-1
we've
even
had
some
leadership
who's
retired.
D
We
have
some
former
chiefs
who
probably
and
and
division
heads
or
directors
that
have
probably
have
ideas
about
improvements
that
could
be
made,
and
we
also
probably
no
doubt
have
some
rank-and-file
nine-on-one
dispatchers,
who
we
might
be
able
to
reach
back
to
and
see
if
we
can
get
an
interview
and
the
same
with
officers,
it's
just
difficult,
I
think,
sometimes
for
us
to
get
as
open
and
free
and
relaxed
responses
to
some
questions.
D
If
people
are
worried
about
the
work
climate
they're
currently
in,
if
that
makes
any
sense
to
you-
and
I
think
it
should
make
sense
to
pretty
much
everybody,
so
is
there
any
effort
to
do
that
that
you're,
aware
of
or
could
my
question
influence
you
in
that
direction?.
A
Councilmember
garden-
I
I
must
admit
I
am
not
aware
of
how
our
selected
vendor
normally
does
this,
but
my
impression
is
that
they
are
very
committed
to
being
responsive
to
our
expertise
within
the
city
of
what
we
think
they
should
draw
from
to
in
terms
of
both
quantitative
data
sets
and
the
the
right
humans
to
provide
insight.
So
I
don't
know
if
that
was
on
their
radar,
but
I
have
literally
uncapped
my
pen
and
I
will
be
making
note
of
it
to
make
sure
that
it's
on
their
radar
as
well.
Thank
you.
D
Great,
I
really
appreciate
that
I'd
also
like
to
just
plant
the
seed
that
maybe
when
the
results
come
in
in
quarter
three,
this
would
be
worth
a
study
session.
I'm
not
sure
how
robust
the
results
will
be
and
I'm
not
sure
how
different
and
divergent
their
optional
recommendations
might
be.
But
it
might
be
the
kind
of
thing
where
we
just
want
to
have
a
meeting
where
we're
not
making
any
decisions,
but
where
we
can
get
all
the
information
I'll
put
that
out
there
for
folks
to
consider
and
you'll
know
better.
B
Very
good-
and
I
I
I
agree
that
this
will
certainly
be
worthy
of
a
a
study
session
or
other
kind
of
focused
meeting
on
this
topic
when
we
get
the
report
back.
Thank
you,
councilmember
gordon
and
the
presenters
can
proceed.
Thank
you.
K
Thank
you
I'll,
come
back
and
and
jump
in
here
next
slide.
K
K
This
is
an
overview
of
the
various
projects
that
our
team
is
either
leading
or
supporting,
and
what
we
will
be
providing
updates
around
today.
Next
slide,
please.
K
Here
you
can
see
the
projects
in
their
various
stages.
Some
of
the
projects
are
well
along
their
way
in
planning
and
a
couple
of
the
projects
are
in
pre-planning,
meaning
we're,
organizing
the
people
and
prioritizing
the
work
to
launch
the
planning
phase
and
I'll
say
a
little
bit
more
about
that
next
slide.
Please.
K
So,
first
I'm
going
to
take
a
few
minutes
and
I'll
jump
through
these
slides
pretty
quickly
before
our
pilot
updates,
but
to
review
a
new
working
structure.
The
team
is
implementing
to
move
these
various
projects
forward
starting
march
2021.
So
this
month
the
office
of
performance
and
innovation
will
transition
to
a
project-based
working
structure
for
the
alternatives
to
police
response
work.
This
structure
is
a
reorganization
and
reprioritization
of
work
from
the
former
911
mpd
work
group.
K
So
the
the
projects
fall
into
two
categories
which
impact
the
working
structure,
we'll
use
to
complete
the
projects.
There
are
several
projects
on
which
the
performance
office
of
performance
and
innovation
team
is
taking
the
lead
and
a
handful
of
projects
where
the
operating
department
is
taking
the
lead
it
loosely
followed
where
the
dollars
went.
So
if
the
budget
was
allocated
to
our
department,
we
are
taking
the
lead
and
departments.
K
Smes
are
supporting
and
sometimes
co-leading
that
work
with
us,
and
if
the
dollars
went
directly
to
the
department,
then
they
are
taking
the
lead
and
we
are
supporting
and
completing
the
project
with
them
and
so
I'll
walk
through
the
two
different
models
that
we
have
for
each
structure.
L
B
It
sounds
like
there
might
be
someone
who's
unmuted.
If
you
can
mute
yourself
if
you're
not
presenting
that
would
be.
K
Great,
so
this
is
the
working
group
structure
for
projects
where
opi
is
the
lead.
We
have
it
organized
as
a
hierarchy
that
is
was
sort
of
the
clearest
visualization.
I
could
find
to
depict
the
structure,
but
we
will
be
depending
on
many
people
across
the
organization
to
support
and
occasionally
lead
various
elements
of
the
project.
K
This
is
a
different
version
from
the
prior
slide,
which
just
shows
more
detail
about
who,
within
the
organization
will
be
working
and
outside
the
organization
we'll
be
working
with
and
depending
on,
for
implementation
of
the
various
pilots
and
projects
next
slide.
Please-
and
lastly,
this
illustrates
the
working
structure
for
projects
where
the
department
is
the
lead
and
opi
is
providing
the
support.
K
M
Thank
you,
andrea
and
chair
fletcher
and
council
members
I'll
now
get
into
the
specific
updates
on
each
of
the
pilots
and
other
initiatives.
Next
slide,
please,
as
a
refresh
refresher.
M
This
slide
shows
the
reporting
structure
that
we'll
use
for
each
of
the
projects
and
in
each
of
those
color
blocks,
you'll,
see
some
of
the
examples
of
the
type
of
information
you
can
expect,
depending
on
the
pilot
recommendations
down
at
the
bottom,
will
come
later
in
the
year
sometime
in
quarter
three
or
four,
depending
on
that
specific
pilot,
and
as
we
progress
with
our
council
updates
throughout
the
year,
you'll
see
that
each
of
the
template,
slides
is
continually
filled
in
with
additional
information
as
more
work
begins
and
is
completed
next
slide.
Please.
M
M
M
I
do
want
to
highlight
that,
since
our
january
update
we
have
switched
the
language
to
behavioral
health,
because
we
feel
that
it
casts
a
wider
net
for
the
types
of
incidents
that
the
teams
may
be
responding
to,
and
my
apologies
that
the
language
was
not
updated
on
this
slide
the
rfp
to
find
those
community
providers
that
we
will
partner
with
was
opened
on
march
1st
and
was
originally
set
to
close
on
march
31st.
M
This
past
thursday,
we
had
a
very
well
attended
and
exciting
pre-proposal
conference
call
with
providers
to
come,
hear
more
about
the
initiative
and
to
ask
questions
that
they
have,
and
after
that,
we
decided
to
extend
the
close
date
of
the
rfp
by
two
weeks
to
april
14th,
just
to
allow
providers
a
little
more
time
to
complete
their
proposals,
and
this
also
does
extend
our
estimated
launch
date
of
when
services
will
go
live
to
june
15th.
M
I
just
want
to
give
a
note
to
providers
who
may
be
watching
that
you
can
go
visit,
the
city's
doing
business
with
the
city
webpage
and
click
on
go
to
esupplier
portal
to
view
the
rfp
and
as
of
this
morning,
I
know
it
says
two
on
the
slide
here,
but
as
of
this
morning,
we
have
received
five
notifications
of
intent
to
apply
with
one
of
those
being
a
coalition
of
community
organizations
who
are
partnering
partnering
together
to
complete
their
proposal.
M
So
that
is
super
super
exciting
and
we
are
working
with
our
project
team
to
develop.
The
eligibility
criteria
for
9-1-1
calls
that
those
teams
will
be
responding
to
and
how
best
to
triage
them
and
in
the
green
box
here
you'll
see
that
you'll
see
some
of
the
anticipated
metrics
that
we
may
be
tracking
during
the
pilot
next
slide.
Please.
M
To
support
our
911
staff
with
having
a
new
response
option
to
dispatch
emergency
mental
health,
dispatch,
training
will
be
provided
and
the
work
on
this
is
underway,
with
meetings
planned
for
911
representatives
to
meet
with
other
peace,
apps
or
other
911
centers,
and
then
the
training
providers
to
learn
about
their
experience
and
what
to
expect
from
the
training
and
be
able
to
ask
questions
directly
from
their
perspective
of
the
folks
who
will
be
triaging.
Those
calls,
and
we
expect
those
trainings
to
begin
sometime
during
the
second
quarter.
M
Another
area
of
support
for
triaging
eligible
calls
for
our
mobile
crisis
team
response
is
embedding
mental
health
providers
in
9-1-1
to
help
not
only
staff.
With
that
triage
process
covet
has
presented
a
barrier
to
our
ability
to
do
sit-alongs
with
9-1-1
staff
to
gain
a
better
understanding
of
what
happens
when
a
call
comes
in
to
help
us
try
to
figure
out
the
best
way
to
insert
those
mental
health
providers
into
the
process,
and
the
project
team
is
currently
trying
to
figure
out
a
way
to
work
around
that.
M
We
will
also
be
releasing
an
rfp
to
find
community
providers
who
are
interested
in
partnering
with
us
to
provide
this
service
and
that
we
will
begin
drafting
that
sometime
within
the
next
month
or
so
next
slide.
Please.
M
The
fourth
pilot
related
to
mental
health
crisis.
911
calls
is
providing
de-escalation
training
to
community
members
through
a
micro
grant
program
which
would
use
his
plan
to
use
a
train.
The
trainer
type
of
model,
and
this
pilot
is
housed
in
the
office
of
violence,
prevention
and
opi
will
be
providing
support.
M
Planning
work
on
this
will
be
underway
in
may,
and
that's
the
end
of
the
updates.
I
have
for
you
so
I'll
now
hand
it
over
to
wanya
and
uk
to
discuss
the
updates
relating
to
non-emergency
reporting
calls.
L
All
right,
thank
you,
gina.
So,
as
andrew
hadn't
mentioned,
we
have
some
of
these
projects
that
are
department-led
while
the
office
of
performance
and
innovation
is
supporting
so
because
the
next
recommendation
that
we're
going
to
be
talking
about
for
the
report
recommendations
is
department-led.
I'm
going
to
call
on
trish
glover
from
9-1-1
to
give
this
update.
N
Good
afternoon,
chair,
fletcher
and
council
members,
I'm
happy
to
give
this
update
today.
As
you're
aware,
this
pilot
involves
9-1-1
transferring
non-emergency
report.
Only
theft,
property
damage
and
parking
problem
calls
to
3-1-1.
N
By
doing
so,
this
is
going
to
free
up,
9-1-1
and
mpd
by
decreasing
their
call
volumes,
allowing
them
to
focus
their
efforts,
one
emergency
on
emergencies
and
high
priority
crimes.
We
were
able
to
hire
nine
people
that
started
in
january.
Sadly,
we
lost
two
of
them
and
I'd
like
to
just
state
that
I
you
know
because
we
had
to
do
the
entire
hiring
process.
N
Virtually
we
were
not
able
to
have
applicants
sit
with
agents
normally,
when
they're
done
interviewing,
we
have
them
sit
with
an
agent
for
two
hours
so
that
they
see
what
the
job
really
entails.
One
of
the
applicants
quit
after
two
weeks
and
another
one
we
had
to
let
go,
but
we
also
have
an
employee
that
surprised
us
with
a
early
retirement.
That's
going
to
be
april
3rd
as
well
so,
and
that
puts
us
down
three
again,
but
we
are
still
training.
Training
is
moving
forward.
N
We
have
moved
all
the
agents
home,
so
we
are
doing
training
virtually
now
as
well,
so
that
makes
it
a
little
bit
more
difficult
and
we're
hoping
to
have
training
finished
by
the
end
of
may
to
early
june,
and
that
is
just
because
of
the
barriers
that
we've
hit
with
having
such
a
large
class
and
having
to
go
remote.
N
I
think
that
that
just
adds
a
little
bit
of
slowness
and
our
my
training
analyst,
the
one
who
is
not
training
is
actually
building
the
training
as
she
goes
when
we
had
our
upgrade
with
with
our
lagging
system
and
then
the
microsoft
can
it.
It
threw
everything
out
of
skew,
and
so
we
had
to
redo
everything
so
she's
working
on
that
as
she's
going
to
so
that's
not
slowing
anything
down.
It's
just.
You
know,
adding
to
everything.
N
That's
going
on
at
one
time,
so
right
now
we're
looking
at
early
may
to
early
june
to
have
all
these
folks
trained
up.
That's
what
I
have
for
today.
Thank
you.
L
So
the
next
recommendation
that
we're
going
to
be
looking
at
for
implementation
will
be
conducting
the
awareness
campaign
about
the
reporting
options
that
are
going
to
be
moving
to
301,
but
the
awareness
campaign
is
also
going
to
cover
a
little
bit
more
than
that.
It's
going
to
be
trying
to
cover
a
host
of
the
recommendations
that
the
team
is
working
on.
L
This
way,
residents
are
aware
of
all
the
different
changes
that
are
coming
to
the
city
services
and
for
this
recommendation
we
have
started
working
with
communications
to
build
an
internal
project
team.
L
So
we
are
starting
to
think
about
the
different
language
and
the
target
audiences
for
the
messaging,
in
order
for
us
to
have
the
most
effective
messages
for
the
different
communities
in
minneapolis,
so
that
work
is
on
the
underway,
and
in
addition
to
that,
we
are
also
looking
to
use
behavioral
science
methods
to
see
which
form
of
communication
is
kind
of
the
most
effective.
L
L
So
training
non-police
city
staff
to
take
theft
and
property
damage
reports
and
collect
evidence.
So
for
this
project
we
are
currently
building
an
internal
working
group
or
inter
building
an
internal
project
team.
This
project
is
very
very
early
in
the
planning
stages,
as
we
are
trying
to
identify
what
city
staff
would
be
taking
on
this
role
next
slide.
Please.
L
So
this
is
the
transfer
of
all
parking
related
calls
to,
and
responses
to,
traffic
control
for
the
overnight
shift
and
we're
currently
looking
at
piloting
this,
and,
as
I
mentioned
before,
this
is
a
department-led
project.
So
I
will
be
calling
on
kim
keller
from
regular
regulatory
services
to
give
this
update.
I
Thank
you
monya,
and
thank
you,
chair,
fletcher
and
councilman
for
inviting
me
here
today.
I'm
kim
keller,
director
of
regulatory
services
as
one
yet
recapped
the
pilot.
We
are
looking
to
expand
traffic
control's
hours
of
operation
so
that
they
can
respond
to
these
overnight.
Parking
related
9-1-1
calls
the
change,
frees
up
mpd
capacity
and
reduces
interactions
between
law
enforcement
and
the
public.
I
I
I
L
Thank
you
kim
next
slide,
please
so
with
that.
That
concludes
our
presentation.
Thank
you
all
for
your
time
and
we
are
open
to
any
questions
that
you
have.
B
D
Thank
you
much
and
thanks
for
all
this
information,
as
things
were
going
by,
it
was
clear
that
there'd
be
lots
of
budget
implications
for
all
of
this,
and
I'm
maybe
especially
the
last
one,
and
I'm
trying
to
figure
out
how
the
timing
is
going
to
come,
so
that
those
recommendations
can
be
have
the
potential
to
be
part
of
the
staff
recommendations
that
go
to
the
mayor's
office
says
he's
formulating
his
proposed
budget,
and
I
don't
know
if
I
suspect
most
of
the
department
heads
involved
with
this
have
been
thinking
about
this,
but
I
just
wanted
to
call
it
out.
D
I
know
with
some
of
the
things
we're
saying
the
recommendations
will
come
in
about
the
budget
one
slide
in
november
and,
of
course,
for
that
to
get
into
the
proposed
budget
is
way
too
late.
But
there's
that
should
be
happening
too.
We
want
recommendations
as
long
as
we
can
and
budget
implications.
D
So
if
anybody
wants
to
talk
about
that,
a
little
that
would
be
just
fine,
I
would
say
from
our
perspective
on
the
council:
it's
really
valuable
to
get
kind
of
recommendations
from
staff
in
the
summer
before
august.
So
we
are
also
understanding
what's
coming
forward,
I'm
happy
to
leave
that
as
a
comment.
If
everybody
just
wants
to
sit
down
thanks.
K
Chair
fletcher
councilmember,
gordon
I'm
happy
to
jump
in
on
that.
We
have
been
and
will
continue
to
be
in
conversation
with
the
mayor's
office
about
how
how
to
think
about
holding
some
dollars
understanding
that
there
may
be
budget
implications
from
these
projects.
K
I
do
think
it's
important
to
note
that
the
the
you
know
the
estimates
that
we
worked
on
last
year
and
that
were
embedded
in
the
budget
long
term,
I
think,
will
cushion
the
shock
of
some
of
the
some
of
the
changes
and
so
but
but
that's
a
great
suggestion
and
something
that
we're
definitely
thinking
about.
B
Thank
you
looks
like
director.
Keller
also
has
a
comment.
I
Thank
you,
chair
fletcher,
and
thank
you
councilman,
gordon,
for
bringing
that
up.
It
is
a
really
important
consideration
for
the
pilot
that
I
discussed.
The
funding
that
was
approved
in
the
2020
budget
is
considered
ongoing
for
those
four
fte
three
agents
and
one
supervisor,
so
that
does
that
does
help
us,
at
least
in
this
one
pilot,
to
be
able
to
move
it
into
ongoing
operations
with
the
potential
for
expansion
in
the
future.
D
B
Thank
you,
and
that
certainly
was
our
intention
in
the
budget
process,
and
I
just
want
to
add
my
appreciation
for
all
of
the
terrific
work
on
display
here.
I
think
it's
really
important
people.
People
want
to
know
you're
talking
about
transforming
public
safety.
B
What's
the
city
actually
doing,
and
this
is
the
real,
tangible
steps
that
we
took
in
the
budget
that
we've
been
developing
over
time
that
were
putting
into
practice
and
into
action,
and
I'm
really
appreciative
of
this
update,
I'm
looking
forward
to
future
updates
once
a
few
of
these
things
are
actually
out
in
the
field
and
just
want
to
wish
you
continued
success
as
you
develop
these
programs,
we
are
watching
carefully
and
we
care
a
lot
about
these
outcomes.
B
K
Just
wanted
to
say
thank
you
for
that
comment
and
that
I
echo
that
we
have
the
best
team
ever
we
get
to
work
with,
and
our
department
partners
have
been
really
great,
and
so
just
want
to
echo
that
gratitude
publicly
for
for
all
of
our
partners.
In
this.
B
Thank
you.
That's
a
great
note
to
end
on
and
seeing
no
further
comment
I'll
direct
the
clerk
to
file
this
report
that
gets
us
to
the
end
of
our
agenda,
so
without
objection.
I
will
declare
this
meeting
adjourned.
Thank
you.
