Let
the
record
reflect
that
we
have
a
quorum
today.
We
will
continue
hearing
presentations
from
City
departments
on
the
mayor's
2023
and
2024
recommended
budgets
on
the
agenda.
Today
is
the
Civil
Rights
Department
Communications
and
the
community
planning
and
economic
development
department.
Our
first
presentation
is
from
the
Civil
Rights
Department
I've
allocated
45
minutes
for
this
presentation
and
the
corresponding
q
a
if
we
reach
the
45
minute.
Mark
I
will
give
notice
of
a
five-minute
grace
period,
after
which
we
will
move
on
to
the
second
presentation.
I'll
now
recognize
civil
rights
director
Alberta
Gillespie.
D
Thank
you,
chair
Koski,
good
morning,
everyone
I'm
glad
you
gave
us
45
minutes.
We
probably
will
need
about
10.
so
but,
as
you
said,
I'm
Alberta,
Gillespie
I
am
the
director
of
the
Civil
Rights
Department
I
have
been
the
director
for
approximately
appointed
in
in
place
for
approximately
five
months,
so
I'm
glad
to
be
here
we'll
just
get
started.
D
The
Civil
Rights
department
has
been
around
since
1967,
which
is
quite
some
time
and
has
evolved
over
that
time,
and
so
our
mission,
our
goal,
is
to
reinforce
the
laws
to
protect
and
Advance
the
civil
and
human
rights
of
everyone
who
lives
lives
in
Works
in
or
visits
our
city,
and
so,
as
I
said
it's
devolved.
So
we
have
our
our
division,
leaders
here
and
I'm
going
to
introduce
them.
D
We
have
the
office
of
administration
and
policy,
Andrew
Hawkins
complaint
investigations,
division,
Kayla,
McCann
and
diera
contract
compliance,
director,
Johnny
Burns,
who
actually
left
and
then
came
back
so
and
you've
been
here
for
how
many
months
now,
four
months
so
we're
right
there
together,
our
civil
rights
and
Equity
division
is
actually
vacant
that
position
so
we're
looking
to
post
that.
Actually
this
week
we
have
our
labor
standards
and
enforcement
division,
director
Brian
Moss,
and
then
we
have
our
office
of
police
conduct
and
review,
and
so
Carolina
amini
has
actually
stepped
in.
D
That
position
has
been
vacant
for
a
little
bit,
and
so
we
plan
on
filling
that
position
fairly
quickly.
Here
and
I'll
talk
a
little
bit
about
that
in
my
five
months
here
we
have
really
focused
a
lot
on
Outreach
and
so
and
connecting
with
communities
so
that
they
understand
what
we
do
and
how
that
impacts
and
benefits
them.
So
we've
done
things
like
lunch
and
learns
also
for
internally.
So
people
know
what
the
Civil
Rights
department
is
responsible
for.
D
We've
been
at
community
events
as
well,
and
we
continue
to
educate
people
on
again
what
their
rights
happen
to
be
I'll
go
through
the
highlights
for
our
various
divisions
for
our
office
of
police
conduct
and
review
some
of
the
highlights
and
we
won't
go
through.
We
have
a
long
list
that
we
have
that
you
can
read
after
in
our
presentation,
but
some
of
the
highlights
for
our
division,
I'm
going
to
I
forgot
to
hit
the
slide
here,
are
with
the
office
of
police.
Con
duck
review.
D
We've
been
able
to
minimize,
like
our
intake
timeline
from
180
days
to
30
days,
which
is
really
impressive
and
important,
and
so
we
want
to
continue
that
as
well
as
for
CID,
which
is
our
complaint
and
investigation
division.
We've
been
able
to
minimize
those
timelines
as
well,
so
we're
it
was
taken
on
average
500
Days
for
an
investigation
to
be
completed.
It
takes
now
a
little
bit
under
60.
D
and
so
and
the
reason
I
bring
that
up
is
because
that
was
directly
the
impact
of
adding
staff
to
be
able
to
bring
down
some
of
those
timelines
for
our
for
our
labor
and
standards
division.
Some
of
the
highlights
is
that
we've
been
able
to
have
recoup
over
550
thousand
dollars
for
community
members
here
and
so,
and
that's
really
really
impressive,
as
well
as
Bringing
Down.
The
timelines
there
as
well,
and
so
we
have
I,
think
55
in
my
glasses.
D
I
should
have
those
on
but
I,
don't
51
settlements
in
2022
and
that's
more
than
doubled.
What
we
had
in
21
and
2020.
So
we've
seen
a
significant
Improvement
there,
and
this
was
because
of
the
addition
again
of
investigators.
D
So,
and
then
many
of
you
have
had
the
opportunity
to
sit
with
Chief
of
Staff,
Andrew
Hawkins
and
one
of
the
primary
things
that
the
chief
of
staff
has
been
working
on
is
actually
making
sure
that
our
police
contacted
oversight
Commission
in
our
panels
that
we
are
presenting
a
new
model
that
will
make
it
more
effective
and
responsive
to
some
of
the
concerns
that
were
brought
up
in
the
mdhr
report.
D
So
I'll
get
to
why
we
are
here
today.
We're
just
asking
for
in
terms
of
our
change
item
is
we're
looking
for
three
ftes
in
the
office
of
police
conduct
and
review,
and
our
division
of
police
conduct
review
and
basically
right
now.
The
timelines
that
we
have
in
that
particular
division
are
not
where
they
need
to
be
some
of
the
things
that
were
pointed
out
in
the
mdhr
report,
that
to
the
Forefront
and
so
by
adding
staff
to
the
in.
D
We
hope
to
get
the
timeline
in
terms
of
completing
an
investigation
from
intake
to
actually
going
to
the
panel
down
to
180
days
and
so
we'll
be
able
to
do
that
with
these
additional
FTS,
and
so
we'll
have
more
two
more
investigators
that
will
add
to
the
staff,
and
then
we
also
want
to
increase
our
administrative
staff
because
we'll
be
able
to
support
the
police
conduct
commission
or
what
we're
calling
the
community
civil
oversight
Commissioners.
What
we
hope
it
to
be
that'll
allow
us
to
add
more
support
there,
as
well
with
the
administrative
person.
D
So
that
really
is
the
only
ass
that
we
have.
So
that's
why
I
said
it
wouldn't
take
45
minutes.
We
want
to
increase
the
staff
in
that
particular
area
and
I'm
sure
you've
heard
a
lot
about
the
need
to
do
so
and
some
of
the
challenges
we've
had
in
that
particular
Division,
and
this
will
help
remedy
some
of
those
challenges.
With
that
I'll
stand
for
questions.
A
Thank
you,
director.
I
will
open
it
up
now
for
questions
from
my
colleagues
to
share
that
all
council
members
have
the
opportunity
to
participate,
just
like
we've
done
in
our
past
meetings.
Please
just
put
yourself
in
queue
to
ask
one
question
at
a
time
and
then,
after
which
we'll
move
on
to
the
next
person
in
queue.
So
any
questions
from
my
colleagues
right
now.
C
Thank
you,
madam
chair
yeah.
I
was
curious
around
you
know
what
are
some
of
the
complexities
that
drive
that
have
been
extending
the
the
investigation
time
in
opcr?
Is
it
just
strictly
staff
time?
Are
there
other
factors
that
we
should
be
cons
weighing
so.
D
I'll
speak
a
little
bit
about
that
I.
Think
a
lot
of
it
is
really
staff
time
and
we
have
the
numbers.
I
don't
know
if
Andrew
will
have
those
but
increase
complaints
in
2020
I
think
we
had
over
a
thousand
complaints
in
2020
and
we
had
a
few
investigators.
So
that's
the
other
and
the
cases
themselves
are
very
complex
in
terms
of
they
might
involve
multiple
officers
and
you
need
to
schedule
an
interview
and
do
those
things,
those
conduct,
those
interviews
with
officers,
and
you
don't.
We
don't
really
have
the
capacity.
D
Information
that
we
need
in
those
investigations
and
since
I've
I've,
of
course,
since
I've
come
on,
we've
been
had
access
to
other
information
that
we
didn't
have
before,
which
is
really
important.
According
to
the
ordinance,
we
can
have
access
to
the
same
information
that
MPD
has
most
of
the
information
that
NPD
has,
and
we
didn't
necessarily
have
that
access
before
and
we
have
increased
access
to
the
things
that
we
need.
D
The
other
thing
is
that
we
are
in
the
process
of
started
a
new
management
system
through
axon,
because
what
we
have
now
is
practice
manager,
which
is
very
old
and
outdated,
and
so
that'll
also
be
very
helpful
in
terms
of
giving
us
the
capacity
to
to
you
know,
pull
information
in
different
ways
and
track
information,
so
there
those
have
an
impact
too,
on
those
timelines
as
well.
So
I
think
we
we
are
we're
getting
the
access
that
we
need.
D
E
Yeah,
my
apologies
for
some
reason.
My
computer
is
not
working
but
I
wanted
to
ask
a
question
regarding
the
labor
standards
division.
Can
you
share?
Is
this
just
a
team
or
staff
of
one
or
kind
of
what
that
team
consists
of.
D
F
Okay,
Jared
Koski
council
member
wansley.
Thank
you
for
the
question.
The
labor
standards
enforcement
division
has
five
ftes
currently
and
as
director
Gillespie
mentioned,
there
was
an
addition
of
one
investigator
bringing
us
from
a
total
of
two
investigators
to
now
three
in
admin
and
myself,
and
that
50
increase
in
investigative
capacity
has
really
made
a
difference
in
2022.
E
And
just
can
you
recount
the
volume
I
think
you
mentioned
director
valenci
of
increased
value
of
complaints
that
you
all
are
catching.
Can
you
share
that
number
again
yeah.
F
F
It
is
51
51
settlements,
thus
far
and
500
over
566
thousand
dollars,
thus
far
just
in
2022
and
that's
far
and
away
more
than
any
previous
year.
Okay,.
E
Just
once
I
get
a
good
sense.
Your
department
has
led
I,
think
amazing
work
around
wage
stuff,
particularly,
but
knowing
as
someone
who
represents
the
university
area
where
a
lot
of
students
are
facing
wage
stuff
issues
and
I
know
you
all
help
with
that
with
Blaze
Pizza,
more
specifically,
with
thirty
thousand
dollars
being
recuperated
for
those
student
workers.
I'm.
E
Just
also
wanting
to
know
if
staff
supports
also
helping
with
increased
Outreach
as
well
I
think
to
those
areas
and
if
that's
contributing
to
the
increase
that
we're
seeing
in
those
complaints.
F
Yeah,
chair
Caskey,
council
member
wansley,
another
great
question:
Outreach
and
engagement
is
sort
of
always
a
priority
for
us
and
always
really
a
a
challenge.
Frankly,
I'm
just
due
to
you
know,
capacity
and
the
busy
lives
that
all
of
our
residents
lead
and
the
information
coming
at
them
from
all
sides.
F
The
the
investigators
themselves,
I
am
tasked
with
a
really
focusing
on
those
investigations
and
the
the
day-to-day
tasks
involved
in
enforcement.
I
try
to
do
a
lot
of
the
Outreach
and
engagement.
My
engagement
myself
in
collaboration
with
the
Departments
of
Labor
U.S
Department
of
Labor
Minnesota
Department
of
Labor
city
of
Saint,
Paul,
Duluth
and
now
actually
been
talking
to
Bloomington
as
well.
F
So
that
is
always
important,
because
if
workers
don't
know
their
rights,
then
then
they
are
less
likely
to
complain.
And
if
we
don't
receive
complaints,
then
it's
hard
to
know
that
violations
are
occurring
and
we're
not
going
to
be
able
to
remedy
those
violations.
The
only
other
sort
of
thing
I
would
throw
out
there
is
that
the
labor
market
itself
actually
really-
and
this
is
true
across
all
sorts
of
employment
law.
F
The
labor
market
is
itself
and
the
security
with
which
or
the
the
The
Leverage
that
in
that
employees
and
workers
have
due
to
just
labor
market
supply
and
demand
also
really
impacts
their
willingness
to
step
forward
and
report
violations
because
of
a
strong
labor
market.
From
the
perspective
of
workers
in
2022.
That
also,
we
see
this
in
in
in
anti-discrimination
enforcement
in
all
areas,
when
workers
feel
empowered
they're
more
likely
to
step
forward
and
I.
Think
that
that's
playing
part
of
what
what
we
see
in
in
2022.
E
Thank
you,
I
will
know.
I'm
super
excited
to
collaborate
more
with
you
all
around
that
code
enforcement
piece,
especially
in
the
university
area
I
mean
we
just
had
campus
workers
about
1500
authorized
strike
actions
because
things
are
so
in
such
a
despairing
conditions
for
employees
there,
as
you
name
and
how
that's
also
impacting
student
workers,
so
absolutely
look
forward
to
working
with
you
all
more
around
that
Outreach
piece.
So
our
workers
at
on
the
campus
know
that
this
is
a
resource
that
they
have
at
the
city.
F
And
chair
Caskey
councilmember
once
they
would
like
to
also
just
add
I,
would
be
remiss
if
I
didn't
know
our
common
enforcement
and
the
work
that
we
do
with
the
workers.
Centers
is
absolutely
vital
and
on
critical
part
of
our
our
Outreach
and
engagement,
we
really
really
really
do
rely
on
Worker,
Center
organizers
that
are
really
out
there
in
community
at
you
know,
in
neighborhoods,
and
talking
directly
to
our
most
vulnerable
workers
about
their
rights.
A
D
Sorry,
cheer
costume-
oh
sorry,
I
just
wanted
to
oh
yeah
address
council
member
wansley's
question
further
with
we
are
in
the
process
of
posting
for
a
director
of
equity
and
so
which
will
really
be
focused
on.
How
do
we,
with
each
one
of
our
divisions,
do
more
Outreach?
How
do
we
build
more
of
those
relationships
like
the
core
enforcement
relationship,
so
that
role
is
going
to
look
very
different,
but
it'll
be
focused
on
those
very
things
that
you
bring
up
here,
because
I
think
that's
really
important.
D
G
Thank
you
tarkovsky
thank
you
for
coming
here
today
and
presenting
your
budget
to
us.
We
all
really
appreciate
it,
and
most
of
us
are
new
here.
G
So
we
all
get
a
lot
out
of
out
of
your
presentation,
so
appreciate
that
my
question
is
Also
regarding
the
labor
standards
enforcement
division,
so
Brian
just
letting
you
know
that
you
might
have
to
come
up
in
a
second
here,
but
I'm
wondering
if
you
can
speak
to
the
the
budget
proposal
for
2023
and
2024
for
the
labor
standards
enforcement
division
and
speak
especially
to
the
co-enforcement
budget
and
the
things
I'm
looking
for.
G
There
are
understanding
how
this
allocation
relates
to
Investments
made
in
the
last
couple
of
years
and
how
it
accounts
for
relates
to
the
investment
made
with
arpa
round
two
I
know
that
was
a
much
larger
investment
than
some
of
our
co-enforcement
partners
were
expecting,
and
the
question
at
that
time
was:
is
this
going
to
be
a
one-time
thing,
or
are
we
going
to
continue
to
see
this?
This
sort
of
investment
made
in
in
co-enforcement
work.
D
Chair
koske
and
council
member
Thai
I'll,
let
director
Walsh
address
some
of
those
questions,
but
in
terms
of
what
we
are
bringing
here
today,
it's
really
our
change
items
are
those
three
positions
for
opcr,
so
that
is
where
the
the
focus
is
in
terms
of
the
budget
for
this
cycle.
But
director
wash
can
answer
the
other
questions
about
the
budget.
For
you.
F
Chairkowski
council,
member
joktai,
the
current
allocation
for
2022
is
a
for
our
co-enforcement
efforts
is
369
thousand
dollars
across
several
worker
centers,
and
that
is
slightly
higher
than
previous
years
and
with
the
arpa
money
that
that
allocation
is
likely
to
be
maintained,
it
might
be
a
little
less
a
little
more
depending
upon
how
you
carve
it
up
and
and
calculate
the
the
arpa
money
and
depending
amount
which
year
you
allocated
to
and
as
I
mentioned
before,
the
co-enforcement
efforts
specifically
around
our
Outreach
and
engagement.
F
We
really
couldn't
Elsa,
really
could
not
have
achieved
the
results
that
it
has
achieved
thus
far
in
2022,
without
that
Outreach
and
engagement,
without
especially
the
most
vulnerable
workers,
understanding
what
their
rights
are,
because
complaint
based
enforcement
really
cannot
function.
Without
that.
F
You
know
five,
six
years
since
we
started
this
program,
maybe
the
biggest
challenge,
just
in
the
logistics
of
it
is
it's
been
and
I
think
there
are
discussions
with
everyone
involved
and
a
recognition
on
all
sides
that
it
is
a
challenge
just
in
the
planning
and
and
conducting
the
work,
if
you're,
if
our
partners
or
the
division
is
uncertain,
what
the
next
year
will
bring
for
them
to
be
able
to
staff
up
or
down
Etc
and
just
the
the
the
time
it
takes
to
go
through
City
bureaucracy
to
enter
into
a
contract
is
significant
in
the
administration
sort
of
on
all
sides
of
it
takes
a
lot
of
time
and
energy,
so
the
uncertainty
of
doing
it
just
one-off
year
by
year
is
it
does
really
interrupt
our
our
efforts,
but
I
think
everyone
recognizes
that.
G
I
really
appreciate
that
I
have
a
follow-up
question,
but
I
know
that
charkovsky
wants
us
to
ask
one
question
at
a
time
so
I'll
just
ask:
would
you
prefer
for
me
to
put
myself
back
in
queue
yeah.
A
D
Follow
up
with
with
the
council
member
Ty's
question
chair
Koski
is
that
we
are.
We
have
had
conversations
about
this
being
ongoing,
so
just
to
really
emphasize
what
director
wall
said
and
for
the
co-enforcement
funding,
and
so
hopefully
that
is.
C
Thank
you,
madam
chair
I
am
remembering
that
Civil
Rights
was
evaluating
a
few
different
softwares
packages
for
managing
the
sup
program
and
I.
Think
at
that
time
the
department
didn't
move
forward
with
that
contract.
I
was
curious.
D
To
my
knowledge,
I,
don't
think
dollars
are
allocated,
I'll
double
check
with
Andrew
on
that
and
then
I'll
actually
have
director
Burns
come
and
talk
about
some
of
the
changes
he
just
made
using
the
current
software
that
we
have.
H
Good
morning,
chair
Koski
council
member
Payne,
it's
been
about
10
years
since
I've
been
up
here
in
front
of
the
council.
So
it's
interesting
welcome.
Thank
you
all
new
faces
too.
So
we
we
have
a
current
software
package,
the
b2g
now
system.
It's
a
database,
that's
being
used
across
the
country
in
some
of
the
stops
that
I've
made
over
my
career,
it's
it's
there
and
it's
a
very
useful
system
tracks
all
of
our
project,
information,
subp
information
goals.
H
What
we
did
recently
was
put
forward
a
forward-facing
compliance
kind
of
transparency
measure
for
the
public
to
actually
go
in
and
search
our
contracts
if
they
had
questions
or
if
a
small
business
had
a
question.
Where
is
the
project?
As
of
the
last
payment
made
to
this
from
the
city
to
the
contractor?
They
can
actually
go
to
our
portal.
You
don't
need
login
access
and
see
where
any
project
is
or
if
you
have
a
question
about
a
specific
contractor
and
what
their
history
is.
H
You
can
look
every
single
project
they
have
and
see
what
their
participation
is
and
their
utilization
of
mbes
and
WBS
are
on
the
contract.
So
I
thought
that
the
director
thought
that
it
would
be
a
great
idea
that
we
put
that
out
there,
it's
transparent,
everybody
can
see
it
and
it
it
stops
the
questions
of
who's,
who's,
providing
and
who's
doing.
And
what
are
you
doing
because
anyone
can
see
it
so
the
system
that
we're
using
now
is
pretty.
It
is
pretty
well
used
and
it's
a
good
system.
H
I,
don't
know
about
the
systems
that
that
were
being
looked
at.
I've
I've
been
involved
with
this
work
for
a
long
time,
so
I'm
I'm
pretty
well
versed
on
most
of
the
databases
that
are
out
there
that
track
small
business
Workforce.
That
kind
of
stuff
no.
C
Actually,
the
fact
that
you
brought
a
b2g
now
answers
my
question
exactly
because
it
was
one
of
the
systems
under
consideration
at
that
time,
so
that
means
that
that
decision
was
made
and
you're
using
it.
So,
okay,
thank
you.
G
Thank
you.
So,
following
up
on
the
the
conversation
we
were
just
having
about
labor
standards,
enforcement
am
I
understanding
correctly,
just
looking
at
at
the
budget
allocation
for
labor
standards
enforcement
that
just
under
for
for
2023
and
2024,
the
allocation
for
co-enforcement
is
just
under
200
000,
so
193
is
that
that's
correct
am
I.
Looking
is
that
the
right
section
of
the
budget.
F
G
That
was
going
to
be
my
my
next
question,
so
the
just
about
200
for
that's
allocated
in
the
budget,
this
for
for
23
and
24.
G
F
Correct
yeah,
chair
Caskey
councilmember,
that
is
correct.
It's
actually
I
believe
169
000
in
the
in
the
mayor's
recommended
budget
for
co-enforcement
in
2023,
and
when
you
add
the
arpa
money
into
that,
it
will
be
right
around
the
same
level
of
of
369
000.
A
Thank
you,
everybody
I'm,
not
seeing
any
further
questions
from
my
colleagues,
so
thank
you
so
much
and
thank
you
to
the
team
for
being
here.
It's
really
nice
to
put
a
face
with
the
name
and
be
see
you
in
person
as
well.
So
I
appreciate
you
all
joining
today.
Thank
you,
chair
Cosby
and
council
members.
Thank
you
all
right.
Our
second
presentation
today
is
from
Communications
I've,
also
allocated
up
to
45
minutes
for
this
presentation
and
Q
a
I'll
invite
interim
engagement,
Deputy
Greta
Bergstrom,
to
give
that
presentation.
Welcome.
I
Good
morning
churikovski,
council
members,
my
name
is
Greta
Bergstrom
and
I'm,
serving
as
the
interim
engagement
Deputy
in
the
office
of
City
coordinator.
I
am
here
today
with
interim
communications,
director,
Rose
Lindsay
and
our
video
services
manager,
CJ
Harrison
I'm
here
in
my
role,
obviously,
managing
departments
that
are
charged
with
public
messaging,
those
include
the
Communications
Department
neighborhood
and
community
relations
and
3-1-1,
and
the
service
center
interim
director,
Rose
Lindsay,
will
be
walking
through
mayor
Fry's
recommended
2023-24
budget
this
morning.
Thank
you
for
having
us.
J
Good
morning,
as
Greta
said,
my
name
is
Rose
Lindsay
and
I'm,
serving
as
the
interim
communications
director
I'm.
Also,
the
deputy
director
for
the
city
and
I
have
had
the
honor
of
serving
the
city
for
almost
10
years
and
different
roles
and
I'm
very
pleased
to
be
here
with
all
of
you
this
morning,
we're
going
to
begin
with
going
over
our
organization
of
the
Communications
Department.
J
We
are
a
small
But
Mighty
Department
we've
had
14
ftes
pretty
consistently
over
the
last
few
years,
I
will
be
outlining
in
our
mayor
recommended
budget,
a
change
of
two
positions.
So
we
see
here
14
ftes,
but
currently
we
do
have
the
director
of
public
information,
Public
Safety
and
a
media
relations
position
that
will
be
moving
out
of
the
Communications
Department
into
the
new
office
of
community
safety,
and
one
of
those
positions
are
currently
vacant.
J
It
is
the
director
of
public
information,
Public
Safety
and
currently
the
commissioner
and
his
team
are
working
on
refilling
that
position
and
then,
of
course,
with
myself
being
detailed
into
the
communications
director
position.
I'll
send
a
vacancy,
but
we
do
have
our
deputy
director
position
open
because
of
having
those
two
positions
at
the
same
time
and
I'll
be
going
into
more
detail
in
our
presentation
and
our
change
items.
Our
new
interagency
coordinator
position
and
a
video
specialist
position.
J
As
we
just
mentioned,
our
staffing
has
stayed
the
same
pretty
much
over
the
last
few
years
and
we
currently
the
only
vacancy
we
have,
is
moving
over
to
the
office
of
community
safety,
and
so
it
will
be
filled
by
the
commissioner
and
his
team.
At
the
point
in
time,
I
did
want
to
provide
an
update
on
our
arpa
funding
before
I
go
into
our
recommended
budget
and
our
change
items
in
2021.
We
did
have
a
one-time
allocation
of
fifty
thousand
dollars.
J
This
allowed
for
us
to
get
temporary
video
Specialists
to
help
broadcast
meetings
during
covid
and
the
pandemic.
We
required
a
lot
more
video
staff
to
produce
all
of
the
meetings
and
we're
very
proud
that
we
produced
over
301
government
meetings
in
2021
and
as
of
October
5th,
we
were
on
track
to
do
185
government
meetings
later
on
we'll
be
talking
about
that
new
video
specialist.
That
will
help
us
continue
with
this
great
work.
J
Our
second
arpa
funding
was
fifty
thousand
dollars
this
year
in
2022
to
reach
out
and
create
deeper
relationships
with
East
African
Community
media.
We
have
a
really
great
cultural
media
programming,
but
we
realized
we
weren't
reaching
all
of
our
members
of
the
East
African
Community,
and
so
this
one-time
funding
helped
us
issue
an
RFP
where
we
are
very
happy
to
say.
We
got
nine
proposals
in
of
East
African
Community
media.
J
Here
we
issued
a
zoom
meeting
in
partnership
with
neighborhood
and
community
relations
in
multiple
languages
to
make
sure
that
our
vendors
were
able
to
truly
understand
that
RFP
process,
because
sometimes
the
city
that
can
be
complicated
to
issue
proposals
and
respond,
and
we
wanted
to
make
sure
everybody
had
a
opportunity
to
do
that
if
they
wanted.
J
J
Take
City
programs
information
news
and
get
it
out
deeper
into
Community
interested
channels
interested
Messengers
in
the
way
folks
want
to
receive
news
and
information
for
folks
who
aren't
necessarily
subscribing
to
City
social
media
or
electronic
newsletters
or
reading
mainstream
Publications
and
getting
the
word
out
through
media
relations
and
press
releases.
That
way,
so
that's
an
update
on
our
two
arpa
activities,
so
Communications.
Our
goal,
of
course,
is
to
get
information
out
timely
accessible
to
the
folks
who
live,
work
and
play
here
in
Minneapolis.
J
So
they
can
better
understand,
appreciate,
benefit
and
participate
in
the
city,
programs
and
initiatives.
Our
goals
are
that
residents,
businesses
and
visitors
have
timely
Equitable
access
to
information
that
the
media
organizations
also
have
the
timely
Equitable
access
to
the
city,
news
and
information
that
City
departments,
where
an
internal
service
department,
so
that
City
departments
and
divisions
also
are
receiving
timely,
Equitable
access
to
strategic
communication
services
and
access
to
City
channels
to
get
their
programs
and
informations
out
to
Residents
and
community.
J
And
then
we
of
course
serve
our
Workforce
as
well
by
making
sure
that
they
get
news
and
information
about
their
employer
and
before
I
move
on
here.
I'll
just
note
that
our
budget
you'll
see
a
slight
increase
from
2022
to
23
and
24
and
truly
this
is
just
small
updates
in
salaries,
our
own
rent,
I.T
things
like
that
standard
costs
of
doing
business,
and
then
we
do
a
one
change
item
that
we'll
be
talking
about.
That's
an
increase
in
our
cultural
media
programming.
J
So
we
are
divided
into
two
service
areas:
our
Enterprise
Communications,
which
I'll
go
to
through
in
a
little
bit
detail
here,
and
then
we
also
do
Public
Access
television,
so
our
Enterprise
Communications
and
Compasses
pretty
much
all
of
the
things
we
do,
including
media
relations,
digital
Communications
and
social
media
multimedia
and
Video
Productions.
The
area
that
CJ
manages
and
we're
very
proud
to
say
in
media
relations.
J
That
not
only
do
we
work
to
proactively
get
our
news
and
information
out
there
to
train
department
leaders
on
how
to
interact
with
the
media,
but
we
also
receive
in
all
of
the
media
inquiries
and,
as
you
can
imagine
the
last
couple
years
that
has
that
volume
has
increased
quite
a
bit
and
so
some
numbers
from
the
last
year
we
had
over
180
news
releases
and
advisories
that
went
out.
We
did
over
24
press
conferences,
we
handled
over
1700
media
inquiries
and
that
does
not
include
MPD
or
fire.
J
So
that's
just
on
all
the
other
City
departments.
In
our
digital
area.
We
work
with
all
the
other
departments
to
do
any
paid
social
campaigns.
So
we
had
over
27
000
in
social
media
ads
gaining
3
million
ad
Impressions.
Last
year
we
have
430
000
followers
on
our
social
media
channels
and
our
social
media.
Individual
is
not
only
doing
an
amazing
job
here
in
Minneapolis,
but
he
is
nationally
recognized
as
a
leader
in
social
media
and
received
an
award
a
leadership
award
last
year
that
we
are
very
pleased
with.
J
He
also
manages
the
social
media
policy
and
make
sure
that
we're
following
all
the
data
practices
that
we
need
to
do
as
a
government
entity
as
I
mentioned
earlier,
we
broadcast
301
government
meetings
last
year.
We
do
that
with
caption
Services,
make
sure
that
they're
on
YouTube,
so
not
only
can
you
get
them
live,
but
if
you
want
to
go
back
and
watch
them
later
that
they're
available
making
sure
this
is
accessible
for
the
community.
J
Continuing
on
with
services
that
we
provide
I've
mentioned
our
cultural
media
programming
and
I'll
go
into
that
deeper
because
we
have
a
change
item
there,
but
just
this
last
year
alone
we
did
103
programs
in
four
languages
through
partner
radio
stations
and
again
I'll
dive
into
this
a
little
bit
deeper.
But
I
will
note
that,
for
example,
you're
asking
our
civil
rights
team
how
they
get
messages
out
about
sick
and
save
time
and
wage
theft.
An
example
is
we
would
partner
with
them?
J
We
would
get
them
on
cultural
radio
programming,
so
we
could
have
the
messages
out
in
Hmong,
Somali,
Spanish
and
then
clients
could
our
residents
could
call
in
in
real
time
and
ask
questions
and
really
get
that
clarification,
so
this
offers
a
two-way
engagement.
That's
also
really
safe.
If
folks
don't
want
to
identify
who
they
are.
When
they're
asking
the
question,
it's
just
a
really
good
way
to
not
only
provide
information
but
get
the
questions
from
the
community
and
just
answer
them
in
real
time.
J
J
We
also
manage
all
of
our
internal
Communications,
and
so,
if
you're
familiar
with
Minneapolis
matters,
that's
our
in-house
newsletter.
We
did
37
of
those
between
2021
and
2022.
In
addition,
when
covid
began,
we
did
a
special
issue
that
just
had
all
of
our
policy
information
in
it
and
updates
for
staff
as
the
environment
continued
to
be
fluid
and
changed.
J
We
had
our
coveted
information
in
their
34
issues
and
then
we
sent
32
all
employee
emails
with
everything
from
updates
on
how
to
prepare
for
a
trial,
or
maybe,
if
there
was
just
employee
benefits,
to
go
out
there
really
just
making
sure
employees
have
the
information
that
they
need
and
it's
important
to
us
that
they
hear
about
things
from
their
employer
before
they
hear
about
things
out
in
the
news.
J
A
few
other
things
we've
done
is
make
sure
we
have
internal
resource
pages
on
again
covid
or
about
40
percent
of
our
Workforce
had
the
opportunity
to
do
some
sort
of
hybrid
work
during
the
pandemic.
So,
as
we
return
more
and
more
to
the
the
physical
workplace
having
resources
for
employees
and
our
department
works
with
hrit
Finance
others
to
make
sure
that
information
is
available,
we
also
work
to
support
departments
with
visual
identity.
J
Graphic
design
maintain
the
city's
brand
identity
did
over
160
projects
last
year,
including
many
covid
projects,
something
that
I'm
very
excited
we're
about
to
launch
in
a
few
weeks.
Here
is
software
digital
software
called
canva
for
teams,
and
this
is
something
that
many
of
our
employees
are
already
using,
but
we're
going
to
create
an
Enterprise
account
where
Department
folks
can
request
a
license
through
it
and
we'll
have
a
brand
kit
in
there.
J
So
all
of
our
city,
logos
and
colors
templates,
and
so,
if
folks
are
requesting
to
do
a
flyer
or
a
postcard,
we
have
one
designer
for
the
whole
city.
This
will
allow
departments
to
actually
create
some
of
those
basic
designs
by
themselves,
but
with
the
city
brand
tools,
and
so
we've
been
working
on
this
with
it
for
the
last
year,
the
environment's
almost
finished
and
we'll
be
launching
it
just
here
in
a
few
weeks.
So
even
your
your
Council
staff
can
use
this
too.
If
you
have
initiatives
very
excited
to
get
this
launched
soon.
J
Few
other
achievements
of
our
our
team
this
last
year
is
we
stood
up
a
joint
information
system
proactively
during
covid
to
get
news
and
information
out
to
our
community
very
quickly,
working
with
the
health
department
as
incident
command
and
then
also
during
former
officer
Chavin.
We
stood
up
a
joint
information
system.
J
Additionally,
we
worked
with
the
audit
Department
to
complete
internal
Enterprise
communication
spend
this
was
a
recommendation
from
our
2019
360
audit
by
Padilla,
and
so
we
were
able
to
get
that
done
to
really
get
an
understanding
of
what
kind
of
communication
spend
is
taking
place
outside
of
the
Communications
Department.
J
So
I'll
move
into
our
three
change
items.
I've
mentioned
our
cultural
media
programming
several
times
already
now,
so
this
again
began
in
2016
as
one
Spanish
radio
program.
We
piloted
that
for
a
year
in
partnership
with
neighboring
community
relations.
It
was
very
successful
and
we
have
now
been
able
to
grow
this
work
to
do
103
programs
last
year
we
are.
The
mayor
is
recommending
increasing
this
from
fifty
thousand
to
a
hundred
thousand.
J
That
investment
will
allow
us
to
take
our
existing
contracts
and
partners
and
actually
pay
cost
of
living
increases.
We
haven't
been
able
to
pay
those
increases
for
five
years
and
we
all
know
that
expenses
have
gone
up,
and
so
this
will
allow
us
to
pay
for
those
increases.
It
will
also
allow
us
to
explore
more
Partners.
We
recognize
we're
not
reaching
all
of
the
communities,
and
so
we
do
want
to
just
like
the
East
African
Community
proposal.
That
is
a
one-time
funding.
We
might
develop
some
wonderful
relationships.
J
Our
second
change
item
is
a
position.
This
is
a
new
FTE
for
us.
It's
an
interagency
coordinator,
a
lot
of
departments
have
this.
We
are
excited
to
be
exploring
this
most
of
our
staff
works
on
several
things,
so
they
might
be
doing
media
relations.
They
might
also
be
managing
a
city-owned
channel
and
then,
if
a
crisis
comes
up,
they're
pulled
away
in
that
direction
as
well.
This
position
will
be
dedicated
to
helping
us
really
focus
on
some
of
those
reports
that
I
mentioned.
So,
for
example,
we
had
that
2019
Padilla
audit.
J
We
just
did
the
financial
audit,
we
had
the
after
action
review,
and
so
this
individual
will
really
help
us
focus
on
some
of
those
findings
and
look
for
ways
that
we
as
a
Communications
Department,
can
better
offer
Communications
across
the
Enterprise
with
other
departments,
so
whether
that
means
new
processes,
new
processes
or
procedures,
better
tracking,
our
metrics
and
outcomes.
But
really,
how
can
we
use
the
resources
we
have
to
better
service
the
Enterprise
and
then,
ultimately,
our
residents
from
that?
J
Additionally,
most
of
our
team
received
FEMA
training
several
years
ago,
and
that
is
now
expired
and
so
ensuring
that
we
are
Nims
compliant.
We
want
to
have
this
individual
help
us
track
that,
because
there's
quite
a
bit
of
training
for
our
Communications
Department
to
stand
up
the
joint
information
system,
so
this
individual
will
also
help
us
in
that
area
again.
Ultimately,
if
we
are
more
efficient
and
trained
and
able
to
track
our
outcomes,
this
will
help
us
serve
the
Departments
better
and
serve
the
community
better.
J
And
then
finally,
I
had
mentioned
up
top.
We
were
very
lucky
to
get
some
arpa
funding
to
have
two
video
Specialists
to
help
us
support,
having
meetings
broadcasting
meetings
throughout
the
last
year,
but
continuing
to
do
300,
plus
meetings
with
our
one
video
specialist
is
not
sustainable.
So
this
change
item
with
the
video
specialist
will
allow
us
to
have
a
second
FTE
to
continue
to
broadcast
meetings.
J
And
then
our
second
program
area
is
Public,
Access
television,
and
so
the
city
receives
funding
from
the
public,
education
and
government
fees
from
the
cable
companies
that
comes
to
the
city
and
then
the
Communications
Department
contracts
with
an
independent
vendor.
J
We
work
with
be
fresh
doing
business
as
speak,
Minneapolis
and
speak
Minneapolis
is
a
diverse
multi-generational
team
that
offers
broadcast
media
training
journalism
and
what
they
really
do
is
make
cable
access
available
in
a
community
resource
lifting
up
our
local
voices,
offering
training,
offering
the
cable
access
and
really
completing
our
vision.
That's
here
on
the
slide
multimedia
approach,
offering
the
training,
creating
additional
opportunities
and
really
providing
a
place
to
do
hyper
local
stories
that
represent
our
community
some
outcomes.
J
I'd
love
to
share
with
you
is
that
in
the
time
that
they've
been
able
to
take
this
contract
get
up
to
speed.
They
currently
have
69
members
who
are
broadcasting
their
work
on
our
cable
access
and
telling
local
stories
they're
continuing
to
train
more
members,
and
this
just
really
is
a
service
that
we're
very
excited
about
I'll,
be
very
clear
that
the
city
doesn't
have
any
involvement
in
determining
who
the
members
are
or
what
the
programming
is.
J
So
the
money
comes
through
the
communications
department
and
goes
to
this
vendor
to
provide
these
services,
and
that
does
conclude
our
presentation
and
I
will
be
happy
to
stand
for
questions.
A
E
I
just
had
a
quick
before
my
actual
question
on
clarification
for
the
cultural
media
programming.
It's
at
zero.
Ftes
again,
can
you
share
if
that
work
is
happening
through
existing
staff?
Member
I
just
saw
that
part
yeah
yeah.
J
Madam
chair
council
member,
thank
you
for
that
question.
This
is
really
a
collaboration
between
Communications
and
neighboring
community
relations,
and
so
the
money
does
pass
straight
through
to
the
vendors
and
so
and
we
really
don't
think
of
them
as
vendors,
we
think
of
them
as
true
partners,
and
they
really
showed
up
in
these
last
few
years
as
partners.
J
So
it
is
a
few
staff
from
the
Communications
Department
that
really
manages
the
contracts
provides
script.
Writing
books
to
guests.
J
Does
all
of
that
kind
of
production,
work
and
then
neighborhood
and
community
relations
provides
the
on
Talent
host,
so
their
cultural
Specialists
are
the
hosts.
They
also
work
with
us
to
get
interpreting
services
in
case
the
guest
is
not
able
to
provide
the
information
in
language.
That's
always
our
perfect
preference
in
language,
but
if
not,
we
will
get
an
interpreter
and
then
the
actual
media
vendor
will
do
the
on-air
production
right,
whether
it's
a
radio
or
YouTube
TV
they'll
do
that
production,
but
there's
no
ft
dedicated
to
running
the
program.
That's.
E
Good
I
just
wanted
that
click
verification.
My
actual
question
was
around
having
access
to
a
platform
more
accessible
or
not.
You
talk
a
lot
about
accessibility
to
the
public
through
some
of
our
communication
channels.
I'm
more
so
speaking,
about
teams
I'm
not
gonna,
lie
I'm
not
about
to
sit
up
here
in
front
teams.
It's
not
I'm.
I
am
not.
Teams
teams.
E
And
especially
with
doing
a
lot
of
you
know
external
engagement,
it
teams
make
it
challenging
to
do
a
lot
of
like
Community
discussions
with
our
residents.
It
can
crash
it's
just
like
man,
so
I
know
my
office
has
been
in
touch
with
our
comps
department
and
wanted
to
see
if
there's
any
way
in
2023
or
even
2024,
where
we're
looking
at
other
type
of
platforms
that
could
support
that
or
that
might
even
be
linked
to
some
of
the
work
that
I
know.
E
Councilmember
Goodman
is
heading
up
with
our
clerk's
office,
around
constituent
engagement,
just
how
our
Communications
platforms
are
also
supporting,
like
our
efforts
to
meet
like
constituent
Services
through,
like
those
type
of
you
know,
meetings
that
we
do
public
forums
and
those
things.
J
Yeah
Madam
chair
council
member,
thank
you
for
the
question
manager.
Harrison
I,
don't
know
if
you
have
additional
information
on
the
broadcasting
of
the
meetings.
K
Cj
Harrison
Communications
customer
Koski,
sorry
about
that
councilman
wansley.
This
would
be
a
request
from
it.
We
just
basically
it
picked
the
platform
we
kind
of
made
it
as
best
as
possible.
Yep.
L
Not
a
question
a
compliment.
I
just
want
to
thank
you,
since
you
all
are
here.
I
want
to
thank
the
entire
department
on
behalf
of
my
Aunt
Rose
who
lives
in
Arizona
who
gets
to
watch
the
meetings
she
loves
it.
She
goes
to
the
library
and
she
shows
all
of
her
friends
in
Winslow
Arizona.
All
of
the
meetings
so
keep
up
the
good
work.
She
told
me
a
couple
weeks
ago
to
thank
all
of
you
for
great
broadcasting.
She
gets
to
keep
up
with,
what's
going
on
in
Minneapolis
in
real
time.
J
Madam
chair
council
member,
thank
you.
Fortunately,
we
have
some
of
our
team
listening
behind
the
scenes
right
now.
So
hopefully
they
heard
that
directly
but
we'll
be
sure
to
pass
that
on
as
well.
A
All
right,
any
other
questions
from
my
colleagues
not
seen
any.
Thank
you
so
much
for
this
presentation.
Thank
you
for
all
of
your
hard
work
and
dedication
to
get
the
information
out
to
us
in
the
within
the
Enterprise,
but
also
to
our
community
members.
So
thank
you
so
much.
Thank
you
all
right.
Our
final
presentation
today
is
from
the
community
planning
and
economic
development
department,
better
known
as
cped.
We
have
one

activities.
M
My
presentation
will
describe
each
of
the
program
areas
in
cped
and
highlight
key
metrics
and
performance
results
as
well
as
change.
Item
allocation
requests
in
each
program
area.
Note
that
this
is
not
a
comprehensive
report
on
all
of
cped's
work
and
outcomes
in
the
last
year.
That
report
would
be
much
longer
before
getting
started.
I
would
like
to
thank
some
folks
who
some
folks,
who
are
not
here
some
folks
who
are
first
I,
wanted
to
thank
karuna
Mahajan.
M
She
is
cpad's
Operation
and
Innovation

and
she
is
responsible
really
for
carrying
the
significant
load
of
the
cped
budget
throughout
the
process
and
working
with
our
Budget
Finance
team
and
the
mayor's
office,
and
others
so
really
appreciate
the
work.
That
of
karuna
also
wanted
to
thank
the
cped

managers
and
dedicated
team
members
who
bring
commitment
to
our
mission,
creativity
and
resolve
every

to
improve
the
lives
of
Minneapolis
residents.
M
Here
with
me
today
are
the
cped
division,
directors,
Eric
Hansen,
director
of
economic
policy
and
development

M
The
mayor's
2023
recommended
budget
for
cpet
is
approximately
125
million,
including
21
million
in
proposed
change.
Item
allocations
for
multiple
initiatives
and
programs.
Many
allocations
are
one-time
allocations.
The
2024
recommended
budget
is
120
million.
The
2023
base
budget
of
104.5
million
in
expenditures
represents
no
change
from
the
2022
budget.
M
The
increase
in
two
ftes
in
2023
reflects
the
addition
of
the
promise
Zone
director,
which
you'll
hear
about
soon
and
the
planning
director
positions
on
the
CT

The
additional
ftes
in
2024
that
are
proposed
are
five
of
the
six
positions
that
were
frozen
during
the
2020
budget
cuts
and
are
currently
funded
with
the
American
Rescue
plan
act
dollars
through
2023..
M

There
is
one
proposed
change
item
request

requested
for
light
for
the

that
is
needed
for
our

fifty
thousand

economically
sustainable
hub
for

would
focus

The
city
funding
will
support

an
estimated
cost
of

phase
will
begin
in
2023

it
plans
to
secure
a
site
for

early

The
organ

M
Moving
on
to
housing
policy
and
development,
this
division
is
led
by
Alfred
port
who's.
Here,
thanks,
if
you
haven't
already-
and
we
will
send
out
a
link
to
all
of
the
council
members,
but
the
the
the
way
home
report,
which
is
the
progress
report
on
the
Seven
Point
housing
strategy
of
the
City
of
Minneapolis,
is
now
available
and
would
encourage
everyone
to
to
take
a
look
at
that.
M
It's
a
very
robust
report
that
highlights
the
success
that
has
been
achieved
in
in
the
housing
area
in
the
last
three
years.
M
So
some
of
this
is
this
is
a
very,
very
brief
little
snippet
of
information
that
is
available
in
the
way
home
report,
but
I
think
it's
important
to
go
through
here
to
to
demonstrate
the
increase
in
affordable
housing
production
that
has
happened
in
the
in
in
recent
years,
so
this
program
helps
Minneapolis
residents,
secure,
decent,
safe
and
affordable
rental
housing,
and
it's
important
to
note
that
we
prioritize
projects
with
the
deepest
affordability
and
those
that
serve
large
families.
M
The
2019-2021
progress
report
highlights
historic
record
levels
of
affordable
housing,
production
and
preservation.
The
first
bar
on
this
chart
shows
average
annual
production,
so
this
is
new
production.
This
does
not
include
the
preservation
activity.
This
is
a
production
of
new,
affordable
housing
units
so
that
first
bar
chart
of
330
units
shows
2011
to
2018
average
annual
production
of
330
units.
M
You
can
see
the
different
colors
on
those
bar
charts,
so
the
blue
represents
housing
units
that
are
affordable
to
households
with
incomes
that
are
below
30
percent
of
area
median
income.
The
green
shows
units
affordable
to
households
with
incomes
between
31
and
50
percent
of
area
median
income,
and
the
Orange
is
Affordable
at
or
below
60
percent
of
area.
Median
income.
M
The
middle
bar
shows
the
Metropolitan
councils
production
goal
for
the
City
of
Minneapolis,
so
the
Met
Council
has
established
a
goal
for
the
City
of
Minneapolis,
of
developing
349
new
units
on
an
annual
basis
and
for
the
first
time
in
2020,
the
Met,
Council
or
2021.
The
Met
Council
has
delineated
that
goal
as
a
percentage
of
area
median
income.
So
you
can
see
they've
set
specific
goals
for
the
city
of
a
comp
of
developing
155
units,
for
example
affordable
households
that
are
below
30
percent
of
area
median
income.
M
The
third
bar
the
one
on
the
right
shows
the
average
annual
production
number
of
633
units
that
closed.
This
is
again
on
an
annual
basis
between
2019
and
2021..
M
As
shown,
the
city
has
significantly
surpassed
the
Met
council's
goal.
This
is
really
attributable
to
the
Mayors
and
the
councils:
continued
commitment
to
affordable
housing
and
funding,
affordable
housing
activity
in
our
city.
M
This
production
trend
is
projected
to
continue
in
2022
and
2023.
We

M
The
City
of
Minneapolis
is
a
national
leader
in
the
preservation
of
naturally
occurring
affordable
housing
referred
to
as
NOAA.
Since
we
launched
our
first
NOAA
preservation
program
in
2018,
we
have
preserved
more
than
2400
NOAA
units,
that's
more
than
15
percent
of
the
NOAA
inventory
identified
back
in
2017
when
we
launched
the
programs.
M
Recent
changes
in
the
NOAA

program
have
resulted
in
the
majority
of

to
mention.
The
supporting

The
significant
increase
when

have
arpa
funds
to
get
us
through
that
year.
M
53
of
Minneapolis
households
are
renters.
This
support
will
provide
support
for
habitability,
repair,
legal
representation
that
has
served
706
households
between
2018
and
2021.
It
will
support
eviction,
defense
that
has
served
578
households
between
2018
and
2021,
and
it
will
support
the
Tenant
Resource
Center
that
has
served
818
households
between
2018
and
2021.
M
Cped's
newest
division,
the
planning
division
will
be
led
by
Meg
McMahon,
whose
first
day
is
today
in
2021,
the
city
council
approved
the
creation
of
a
new
position
in
cpad
the
planning
director
to
lead
a
recently
or
a
newly
re-established
planning
division.
This
structure
was
in
place
10
years
ago.
M
M
M
There
are
two
major
rezoning
studies
focused
on
the
Minneapolis
2040
implementation.
The
first
rezoning
study
of
built
form
took
effect,
January
1
of
2021.
The
second
one
about
land
use
is
currently
underway
regarding
regulating
the
scale
of
new
development,
and
we
expect
to
bring
that
forward
in
2023.
M
The
only
change
item
request
for
the
planning
division
is
an
ongoing
request
of
216
000
to
support
the
director
position
of
this
reconstituted
division.
This
position
will
advance
the
implementation
of
Minneapolis
2040
comprehensive
plan
centered
on
racial
equity
and
climate
Justice.
This
leader
will
also
ensure
the
development
and
implementation
of
planning,
Urban
Design
strategies
and
Community
Strat
strategic
development
plans
that
will
support
Equitable
growth
and
development.
M
25.3
million
of
cped's
proposed
2023
budget
represents
debt
transfers,
Debt
Service
and
transfers
to
administer
and
manage
specific
cped
Financial
resources.
These
tax
increment
funds
support
a
wide
range
of
cities,
development
objectives
and
policy
by
prioritizing
the
production
of
affordable
housing,
increasing
the
city's
tax-based
remediation
of
contaminated
land
and
increasing
the
number
of
livable
wage
jobs.
M
The
first
change
item
request
is
for
578
000
in
ongoing
funding
to
fund
five
out
of
the
six
positions
that
were
frozen
as
part
of
the
budget
reduction
strategy
in
2020.
due
to
their
critical
functions.
These
Frozen
positions
were
reinstated
with
American
Rescue
plan
actor,
arpa,
limited
term
funding
until
and
through
2023..
These
positions
housed
in
multiple
cped
divisions,
provide
critical
functions
that
support
the
implementation
of
City
priorities
of
expanding
housing
options
and
economic
recovery.
M
The
Development
Fund,
which
is
the
current
source
of
funding
for
these
positions,
is
a
sinking
fund
that
currently
supports
staff
department
operations
and
multiple
programs,
including
great
streets
and
youth
and
adult
Workforce
Development.
This
fund
is
rapidly
syncing
and
is
likely
to
support
one
additional
budget
cycle
to
continue
to
support
our
staff
in
successful
implementation
of
our
programs.
Alternative
funding
sources
will
have
to
be
identified.
M
M
This
slide
just
highlights
some
of,
as
you
can
see,
there's
a
lot
of
20
different
projects
that
were
funded
in
the
housing
and
homelessness
area.
This
slide
just
highlights
some
of
those
some
of
those
highlights,
including
supporting
NOAA

continuing
to
build
out
and
transform
our
homelessness
response
system,

used
to
create,
for
example,
the

The
next
two
slides
have
the

Investments
provided
by
arpa
funding.
Over
the
past
year,
the
city
council
has
approved
26.9
million
in
economic
recovery
work
and
1.3
million
for
sabathany
stabilization
under
the
climate
and
public
health
strategy.
Cpet
has
been
moving
quickly
to
contract
and
spend
these
funds.
M
M
Arpa
work
is
supporting
important
communities,
and
people
on
this
slide
are
some
highlights
I'd
like
to
highlight
the
guaranteed
basic
income
pilot,
where
the
city
started,
500
monthly
checks
for
200
Minneapolis
families
in
June
of
this
initial
cohort,
around
74
of
the
recipients
are
black
indigenous
people
of
color
or
Latino.
Black
people
are
the
largest
representation
of
recipients
at
55
percent
of
the
cohort.
M
M
The
city
has
already
committed
1.5
million
for
the
Redevelopment
of
the
American
Indian,
the
Minneapolis
American
Indian
Center,
and
plan
to
bring
a
council
action
requesting
1
million
in
support
for
mcgeezy
later
this
year.
The
final
project
expected
for
Council
action
next
year
is
one
million
dollar
for
the
indigenous
peoples
task
force
project
in
the
Phillips
community.
M
A
Thank
you
director.
I
also
want
to
acknowledge
that
while
we
don't
have
a
public
hearing
or
comment
period
on
today's
agenda,
I
see
we
are
joined
by
close
to
two
dozen
cped
workers
from
the
building
inspectors
unit
who
are
in
the
mess
of
their
negotiations
of
their
labor
contract.
I
want
you
to
know
that
we
see
you
and
hope
we
can
visit
separately
for
a
deeper
discussion.
Thank
you
for
joining
us
today
in
Chambers,
as
the
city
and
Building
Trades
continue
to
meet
to
work
on
a
fair
and
Equitable
agreement.
A
So
for
that
I'd
like
to
move
on
to
questions
from
my
colleagues
I
see,
we
have
council
member
wansley
here.
E
Thank
you,
director,
Brennan
first
question:
just
clarification
around
the
23
vacancies
a
while
ago
that
she
began
your
presentation
with:
are
those
concentrated
heavily
in
one
area?
The
you
know
reason
why
I'm
asking
is:
you
know
I
know
in
2021
there
was
an
effort
to
expand
you
all's
policy
program
and
now
that
that
work
is
going
to
be
done
on
the
legislative
side
under
government
restructure.
E
It
would
be
helpful
to
know
how
many
of
those
staff
members
spent
most
of
their
time
currently
working
on
policy
and
to
help
us
better
understand.
You
know
the
role
of
those
ftes.
M
Sure
Madam,
chair
council,
member
wansley,
thank
you
for
the
question.
The
23
ftes
are
distributed
across
they're
they're
in
all
of
the
different
divisions
of
cped
right
now,
and
the
I
think
this
is
just
like
an
a
report.
That's
automatically
generated
and
so
I
think
some
of
them
literally
have
like
people
who
have
signed
on
and
agreed.
You
know
have
accepted
positions,
and
so
it
goes
from
that
all
the
way
to
you
know,
job
descriptions
that
are
currently
in
the
process
of
being
Rewritten
and
ready
to
get
posted
I.
M
Think
to
your
and
please
let
me
know
if
I'm
not
understanding
your
question
right,
but
the
there
is
I
mentioned
earlier
that
we
have
the
policy,
research
and
Outreach
team
in
the
administration
and
services
division,
and
that
group
is
a
relatively
small
group.
M
M
M
You
know
legislation
in
the
in
the
sense
of
like
new
ordinances,
but
more
on
sort
of
guiding
policy
for
cpad
to
make
sure
that
we're
implementing
our
work
in
ways
that
that
align
with
with
console
approved
goals
and
but
I
think
you
know
to
your
point.
There
is
that
position
has
also
worked
on
ordinance
type
activities
like
around
renter
protections
and
that
type
of
activity.
It's
not
it's,
not
a
very
deep
bench
that
we
have
on
on
policy
work.
M
E
Just
a
follow-up
question
on
that,
because
I
don't
know
if
this
is
a
relatively
new
change.
I
know:
there's
other
departments,
for
instance
with
civil
rights
that
just
presented.
They
will
provide
recommendations
for
policy
to
counsel
on
the
legislative
side.
Is
this
a
relatively
new
thing,
that's
implemented
within
CPAP,
where
there's
not
a
dedicated
staffer
linked
towards
that
legislative
work
and
from
my
understanding
it's
through
the
legislative
decision
making
of
this
body
that
shapes
as
of
now
the
CPS
kind
of
policy
orientation?
So
why
is
that
not
happening.
M
Madam,
chair,
councilmember,
wansley,
I,
think
I
I
understand
your
question
to
be
yes,
this
position
and
the
work
of
this
of
this
group
does
support
policies
that
are
considered
by
and
adopted
by
the
city
council
for
sure,
so
that
that
is
happening
and
like,
for
example,
this
team
provi
is
providing
policy
support,
Staffing
support
and
data
support
for
the
rent,
stabilization
work
group,
for
example.
So
that's
the
basically
the
Staffing
capacity
that
we
have
at
the
city
to
support
to
support
that
that
work
group.
E
Answering
I'll
come
back,
I
know,
there's
other
folks
in
queue,
but
yes.
G
G
G
I
know
we
are
joined
in
the
chambers
today
by
a
lot
of
protesters
and
I
always
think
it's
a
a
really
good
and
sacred
thing
when
people
who
are
impacted
by
what
we
are
discussing
are
here
and
and
bearing
witness
to
what
we're
doing
so.
I
really
also
care
that
we
make
sure
that
the
thing
they're
here
for
gets
addressed
very
explicitly
to
to
honor
the
sacrifices
they
made
in
in
spending
time
so
much
time
here
with
us
today.
G
G
So
I
know
that
you
personally
and
cped
Leadership
broadly,
does
not
lead
contract
negotiations
in
in
our
city
and
that
work
lives
with
our
Labor
Relations
team,
which
is
a
part
of
our
human
resources
department
and
ultimately,
contracts
once
they
are
agreed
upon,
are
approved
by
this
body
by
the
council,
hopefully
having
levels
at
the
ability
of
this
body
and
and
you
and
cped
to
influence
outcomes.
G
Here
today,
I
want
to
just
talk
a
little
bit
about
budget
allocations
for
the
development
services
division,
which
is
where
these
workers
are
so
in
2022.
For
this
year,
I
see
7.6
million
dollars
allocated
for
for
wages
and
and
salaries
in
2023.
That
allocation
is
approximately,
is
just
around
7.8
million
dollars
and
in
2024
that's
about
eight
million
dollars.
G
M
Madam,
chair
councilmember,
Chuck
Tai.
First
of
all,
thank
you
for
your
kind
words
and
I
I
apologize
I.
Don't
think
I'm
prepared
to
answer
that
question
specifically
about
the
the
labor,
the
wage
negotiation
piece.
What
I
can
and
I
I
would
look
to
the
budget
office
or
Labor
Relations.
M
If
there's
anyone
that
is
here
to
speak
to
that
and
before
you
get
up
director,
Hoover
I
I
wanted
to
call
out
here
that
one
of
the
reasons
why
you
see
a
decrease
from
2022
to
2023
and
then
2024
is
the
reconstituting
of
the
planning
division.
Will
the
planning
subdivision
groups
will
move
out
of
development
services
and
into
planning?
So
that's
why
that's
the
the
largest
I
think
component
of
the
numbers
that
you're
seeing
change
here
but
I'll.
Let
director
approver,
address
the
other
question.
N
Thank
you
so
much
chair,
Koski
and
council
member
Chuck
Tai.
Can
you
rephrase
your
question
again?
Just
so
I
can
make
sure
I'm
tracking
what
hasn't
been
answered.
Yep.
G
For
sure,
so
speaking,
specifically
to
the
budget
allocation
for
salaries
and
wages
in
the
development
services,
division,
which
is
where
the
folks
who
are
here
today
are
like
that's
where
their
work
their
salaries
are,
are
accounted
for.
G
G
Imagine
if
we
went
back
a
certain
number
of
years
or
ahead
a
certain
number
of
years,
we'd
see
something
pretty
similar,
but
how
does
this
allocation
specifically
for
salaries
and
wages,
account
for
potential
settlements,
around
wages
with
these
workers
and
other
workers
in
in
this
division?
Yes,.
N
Chairkovski
and
council
member
Chung
Tai,
thank
you
for
for
restating
that.
So
all
of
the
budgets
for
for
any
employee
in
the
city
is
how
we
fund
those
in
the
budget
is
dictated
by
our
financial
policies,
and
so
typically,
the
the
cost
of
personnel
includes
wages.
It
also
includes
Fringe
benefits
which
things
like
health
insurance,
dental
insurance
stuff
like
that,
so
speaking,
particularly
about
wages,
we
budget
for
the
the
costs
in
the
contracts
that
are
signed,
as
well
as
any
known
increases.
N
So
typically
when,
when
Agreements
are
signed,
they're
multi-year,
so
we
will
pull
in
planned
and
known
increases
and
budget
for
those.
Accordingly,
if
there
are
unsigned
contracts,
then
we
typically
take
like
a
a
bit
of
a
backwards.
Look
and
look
at
how
have
we
historically
grown
to
make
sure
that
we
have
some
we're
planning
the
best
we
can,
but
not
trying
to
predict
something
that
has
not
been
signed
yet
so
when
we
are,
when
we
have
a
contract
in
hand,
we're
fully
budgeting
for
it
and
funding
it
in
the
budget.
N
E
Thank
you
so
I
know
we're
gonna
have
a
conversation
in
a
couple
weeks,
thanks
to
council,
member
Chavez
and
council
president
Jenkins
around
the
Strategic
race
and
Equity
planning,
that's
also
part
of
well
s
reap
and
from
my
understanding,
our
promise
zones
kind
of
originated
from
that
work.
Several
years
ago,
I'm
interested
to
know
from
my
understanding
when
esri
first
came
into
fruition,
there
was
not
operational
dollars
dedicated
towards
it.
I
think
that's
going
to
be
a
big
component
of
our
discussion.
E
Our
council
is
in
order
to
actually
Implement
any
type
of
meaningful
work
around
race
and
Equity,
we're
going
to
have
to
fund
it
and
as
part
of
that
or
extension
of
that,
it's
also
the
promise
zones.
You
mentioned
that
there's
only
36
000,
that's
going
to
be
allocated
towards.
It
sounds
like
just
leasing,
which
seems
kind
of
insufficient
for
work.
That's
dedicated
towards
the
north
side
and
supporting
you
know
a
whole
host
of
issues
that
residents
are
dealing
with
in
that
part
of
our
city.
E
M
Chairkovski
councilmember
wanzai.
Thank
you
for
the
question.
That's
a
really
good
question
this.
The
promise
Zone
actually
started
before
was
a
you
know:
a
grant,
a
program,
an
initiative
that
the
city
applied
for
and
received
funding
to
support
the
the
creation
of
the
promise
Zone.
M
The
thirty
six
thousand
dollars
is
just
for
the
least
space
to
make
sure
that
the
promise
Zone
staff
who
include
a
director
and
then
oftentimes,
there's
Vista,
volunteers
and
interns
and
other
other
folks
that
participate
in
in
in
participating
in
the
work
of
of
the
promise
Zone
it's
important
to
be
located
in
the
community
in
which
they're
working,
and
so
that's
that.
M
That's
why
the
the
lease
amount
is
proposed
as
a
as
a
budget
item
but
like
one
of
the
examples
in
one
of
the
proposed
change
items
is
the
strategies
for
Community
safety,
and
that
is
that
is
the
one-time
funding
request.
That
I
talked
about
earlier
of
one
million
dollars
to
continue
the
pilot,
and
that
is
something
that
the
promise
Zone
would
then
administer.
M
So
that's
like
an
example
of
funding
that
is
going
to
that
has
already
gone,
and
so
the
proposal
is
to
continue
this
for
another
year
to
the
promise
Zone
to
implement
the
promise
zone
is
also
you
know.
The
the
idea
of
the
promise
Zone-
and
this
is
the
federal
designation-
is
that
the
city
will
have
priority
for
funding
for
federal
funding.
So
that's
another
area
of
opportunity
for
the
for
the
promise
Zone
and
to
work
with
with
you
know
within
cped,
to
try
to
see
if
there's
other
opportunities
for
fundraising.
M
There
am
I
answering
your
question
not.
E
Really
I
say
this
also
in
in
light
of
we
do
have
workers
here
who
are
raising
questions
and
are
currently
in
negotiations
about
pay
parity.
You
just
mentioned
for
the
private
Zone
that
division
is
operating
on
Vista
labor,
which,
if
anyone
knows
anything
about
the
Visa
program,
those
people
are
paid
poverty,
wages
and
there
are
not
often
a
secure,
sent
or
source
of
labor
for
work.
E
That
is
like
really
crucial
for
elevating
or
addressing
racial
inequities,
especially
in
North
Minneapolis,
so
I'm
interested
to
know
why
one
I'm
still
not
hearing
there
is
there
operational
dollars
allocated
and
if
not,
why?
And
if
there
is
a
space
where
we
can
absorb
actual
secure
funding
for
workers
so
that
they
can
have
the
benefits
that
they
need.
Instead
of
hoping
that
a
Federal
grant
will
come
at
some
point
and
be
able
to
subsidize
that
work,
I'm,
not
hearing
that
word
doing
that
proactive
work
of
funding.
It.
M
Chairkovsky
councilmember
wansley.
Thank
you
for
that
clarification
there,
and
that
is
correct.
Most
of
the
the
funding
for
promise
zone
is
mostly
in
the
form
of
of
you,
know,
supporting
the
operations
of
the
Staffing.
But
that's
you
know
one
of
the
things
that
I
think
we're
we're
really
excited
about.
Having
the
promise
so
and
join
us
in
cpad
is
to
look
for
those
opportunities
that
we
can.
M
M
The
way
that,
because
the
two
of
the
three
priority
sort
of
action
areas
under
the
S
Reap
is,
in
you
know,
preventing
involuntary
displacement,
particularly
in
the
three
highest
zip
codes,
where,
where
we
have
the
highest
eviction
rates
and
then
also
in
supporting
bypoc
businesses
by
Park
owned
businesses,
and
so
we
really
see
the
street
goals
and
cped
as
as
more
of
yes,
there
are
very
specific
initiatives
under
those
those
S
reap
goals.
M
But
it's
also
a
lens
through
which
we
look
at
all
of
our
programs
and
Investments
to
the
degree
that
all
of
our
housing
investments,
for
example,
are
contributing
to
preventing
any
kind
of
involuntary
displacement,
particularly
from
one
common
communities
of
color
and
the
same
for
our
small
business.
And
our
business
supports
that
we
are.
We
are
supporting
everything
that
we're
doing
is
intended
to
support
that
SRI
goal
of
supporting
bipac
owned
businesses.
E
C
E
We're
undergoing
government
restructure.
It
actually
sounds
like
something
that
should
be
placed
in
the
office
of
violence,
prevention
or
neighborhood
safety.
Why
is
it
that
we're
having
a
division
in
CPAC
do
Administration
or
execution
of
community
safety
Pilots
or
work
when
we're
creating
a
whole
new
office
of
community
safety?
That
seems
to
be
charged
with
doing
that,
especially
since
we're
creating
this
office
with
the
goal
of
doing
centralization,
it
sounds
like
by
having
that
still
in
c-pad,
there
is
that
fragmentation
of
community
safety
work
that
we're
trying
to
move
away
from.
E
M
Chair
Koski,
councilmember
wansley,
you
know
I
think
that
that's
certainly
a
conversation
that
can
be
had
you
know
increasingly
throughout
the
Enterprise
I
think
you
know
we're
finding
in
c-pad
for
sure,
like
there's,
no
discrete
disciplines
anymore
I
mean
there's
so
much.
You
know
interconnectedness
across
the
Enterprise
and
in
all
of
the
work
that
we
do
and
like,
for
example,
everything
in
cped.
There's
a
public
safety
component
to
everything,
so
I
I,
understand,
I,
understand
your
question
and
I.
Think
that's
really.
M
M
Think
that
there's
a
lot
of
really
strong
and
good
Community
relationships
that
have
been
developed
there
and
and
and
yeah
I
mean
maybe
there's
I
think
that
there
are
some
roles
and
some
functions
in
the
city
that
you
could
probably
argue
could
be
in
different
places.
L
You
chair
costume
first
I,
want
to
acknowledge
our
workers
here
with
us
today.
I
just
want
to
say
that
I
see
you
and
I
stand
with
you
thanks
for
joining
us
today.
My
first
question
is:
you:
I
may
have
missed
it.
You
may
have
talked
about
it
director,
but
the
rise
up
Center,
who
who
runs
that?
What
can
you
give
me
a
little
bit
more
details
about
that.
M
Chairkoski
councilmember
ravita.
Thank
you
for
asking
a
question
when
I
had
cheat
notes
to
answer
it
so
tending
the
soil
is
the
is
the
Coalition
of
folks,
and
so
this
the
organizations
in
this
Coalition
include
unidos
Minnesota,
new
Justice,
new
Justice
project,
Minnesota
training,
partnership
award,
Center
SEIU,
Local,
26.,
Services,
yeah
proper.
M
That's
the
Minnesota's
Property
Service
Union
Unite
Here
Local
17.,
which
is
the
hospitality
Union
representing
hotels,
restaurants,
Sports
complexes,
Etc
and
building
dignity
and
respect,
which
is
developer
of
work,
designed
worker
and
Forest
code
of
conduct
for
new
construction
projects
in
the
Twin
Cities.
Okay,.
L
M
E
So
this
is
going
back
to
some
of
the
the
housing,
affordable
housing
division,
work
that
you
presented
on
I'm,
seeing
that
there's
a
more
substantial
ask
for
the
Housing
Trust
than
what
is
being
asked
of
us
to
fund,
specifically
the
public
housing
component,
ask
of
of
two
or
so
million
absolutely
support.
The
creation
and
preservation
of
public
housing.
I
know
there's
about
17
000
people
on
the
the
current
wait
list.
Is
there
a
reason
why
we're
not
investing
more
into
public
housing?
E
Since
honestly,
when
you
presented
the
the
slide
that
had
the
Met
Council
goals
and
knowing
that
a
great
proportion
of
Minneapolis
residents
need
housing,
that
is
at
that
30
Ami
level,
public
housing
is
already
gravitated
towards
preserving
and
creating
that.
Why
aren't
we
allocating
more
than
just
that
that
initial
request,
then
some
of
the
more
allocations
towards
the
Housing
Trust
and
some
of
the
Minneapolis
homes
it
seems
like
that
could
be
a
area
where
we
could
kind
of
feed
two
birds
with
one
seed.
M
M
The
rationale
behind
this
this
budget
ask
is:
is
for
2023
and
partially
there's
not
an
ask
for
2024,
and
the
reason
is
because
mpha
is
in
the
process
of
refreshing
or
updating
their
strategic
plan,
and
their
strategic
plan
is,
you
know,
will
ideally
set
the
priorities
of
the
the
specific
projects
and
priorities
that
they
have
going
forward
in
the
next
couple
of
years.
So
our
expectation
is
that
there
could
be
a
conversation
for
the
2024
budget
year,
that
of
potential
funding
Partnerships
between
the
city
and
mpha.
M
That
could
support
the
Strategic
goals.
That
mpha
is
establishing
for
right
now
and
also
wanted
to
also
highlight
again
the
while
3.7
million
is
being
requested
as
part
of
this
budget
process,
when
the
city
has
had
additional
funding
available
like,
for
example,
we
brought
forward
staff
brought
forward
requests
to
all
of
you
and
you
approved
repurposing
1.15
million
dollars
of
rcdbg
funding
to
help
contribute
to
a
fire
suppression
system.
M
In
in
multiple
high-rises
that
mpha
owns
and
operates
with
the
ARP
funding
that
came
to
the
city,
the
this
body
approved
significant
funding,
5.8
million
for
the
Redevelopment
of
84
of
those
scattered
site
units.
So
turning
I
think
to
your
point.
Councilmember
wansley,
like
turning
I,
think
it's
16
single-family
homes
into
84
units
that
will
provide
deep
affordability
to
extremely
low-income
families
in
areas
throughout
throughout
the
city.
We
are
again
looking
at
the
strategic
planning
process
that
mpha
is
going
through
right
now.
M
One
of
the
things
they're
going
to
be
looking
at
is
like
the
remaining
700
scattered
set
units
that
they
have.
What
is
the
plan
for
those
is
the
plan
to
rehabilitate
all
of
them?
Is
the
plan
to
identify
more
of
those
700
units
that
could
then
you
know
be,
could
100
of
them?
For
example,
under
mpg's
current
strategic
plan,
they
identify
that
100
of
those
single-family
homes
could
be
used.
M
You
know
to
create
duplexes
or
triplexes
or
I.
Think
at
the
time
the
plan
was
adopted.
The
city
was
contemplating
fourplexes,
so
there
there.
That
is
the
sort
of
planning
that's
happening
at
mpha
that
we
want
to
wait
to
see
what
comes
out
of
that
and
make
recommendations
to
all
of
you
to
support
to
support
that.
E
It's
funny
that
you
share
that
and
would
love
to
maybe
facilitate
a
meeting
between
mpha,
probably
you
and
some
other
folks
at
cpad
other
council
members,
because
maybe
other
council
members
also
have
a
presentation
from
mpha.
Our
office
did
a
couple
weeks
ago.
They
named
very
explicitly
that
the
Strategic
plan
is
not
a
barrier
for
us
and
moving
forward
with
allocation
for
2023
and
2024.
E
They
actually
said
if
that
point
was
raised,
that
we
should
maybe
push
back
on
that,
because
there
has
been
a
ask
of
the
city
for
allocation,
as
you
mentioned,
to
go
towards
that
substantial
backlog
for
2023
and
2024.
So
we'll
love
for
all
all
of
us
to
get
kind
of
on
the
same
page
of
you
know
it's
very
clear:
they
need
this
money.
So
far
the
city
has
moved
project
to
project
When.
You
mention
the
scattered
sites,
while
that's
great.
They
need
something
more
substantial
in
that
two-year.
E
Investment
will
actually
help
a
lot
more
and
the
Strategic
plan
doesn't
overshadow
the
that
they've
provided
I
hope
to
the
rest
of
my
colleagues
and
probably
you
a
substantial
10
plus
year
plan
of
what
is
needed
so
I.
You
know
it
sounds
like
the
Strategic
plan,
while
you're
taking
that
to
consideration.
E
I
was
told
explicitly
that's
not
a
barrier
and
that
we
should
be
looking
as
a
council
to
make
those
massive
Investments
and
that's
why
I
asked
that
question
of
here's
the
opportunity
to
do
so
and
I
hope
that
there
is
still
that
opening
to
do
so
and
knowing
that
this
strategic
plan
is
not
necessarily
that
obstacle
needed
for
us
to
do
this
major
investment
in
public
housing
that
thousands
of
residents
need
right
now.
L
Thank
you
chairkoski.
My
question
is
about
the
home
ownership
fund,
which
is
494
000
you
have
in
here.
Is
this
the
complete
fund
amount,
or
is
this
in
addition
to
some
already
existing
funds.
M
Chairkovsky
councilmember
Vita
thanks
for
that
question,
it
would
be
in
addition
to
the
196
000
of
Base
funding,
so
I
think
we
get
up
to
600
000
of
annual
annual
funding
and-
and
this
is
for
the
down
payment
assistance
program,
the
ten
thousand
dollars
per
year.
This
is
this
request.
M
Is
a
budget
neutral
request
currently
that
that
amount
of
funding
that
we're
asking
for
just
under
500
000
is
currently
budgeted
in
an
ongoing
budget
to
the
higher
density
housing
Corridor
program,
which
is
what
we
use
to
acquire
Parcels
for
multi-family
development
in
the
future,
and
we
have
a
sufficient
balance
in
that
fund
right
now
that
we
don't
need
additional
funds
for
2023
and
2024.,
so
we're
just
asking
for
those
funds
to
be
reprogrammed
from
from
the
higher
density
Corridor
program
to
the
down
payment
assistance
program,
and
the
reason
is
because,
right
now
the
almost
five
hundred
thousand
dollars
is
coming
out
of
that
Development
Fund.
M
M
The
this,
the
full
amount,
I
believe,
is
for
down
payment
assistance.
M
Oh
I'm.
Sorry,
it's
for
down
payment
assistance
and
also
there
is
some
administrative
costs
that
the
down
payment
assistance
providers
charge
so
there's
build
wealth
Minneapolis,
for
example,
is
or
build.
Wealth
Minnesota
is
a
non-profit
that
they
provide
both
homeownership
Readiness
Services,
as
well
as
down
payment
assistance,
and
so
they
charge
a
there's,
partly
an
administrative
fee
that
they
charge.
Thank.
O
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
madam
chair,
and
thank
you
director
Brennan,
but
before
I
ask
my
question.
I
also
want
to
thank
Dan
McConnell
in
our
Union
sisters
and
brothers
for
your
polite
and
respectful
presence
here
today.
It's
it's
greatly
appreciated
the
manners
that
you're
showing
so
thank
you
director,
Brennan
I,
believe
it
was
program
number
four.
You
talked
about
the
2.7
million
dollars
for
for
the
mpha.
M
M
Unfortunately,
for
decades
now,
Congress
has
failed
to
appropriate
sufficient
funds
to
keep
up
to
keep
up
with
the
the
improvements
that
are
needed
at
public
housing
during
the
Obama
Administration,
the
Obama
Administration
came
up
with
a
new
new
set
of
sort
of
tools
that
would
allow
public
housing
authorities
to
leverage
their
assets
and
raise
private
Capital
to
try
to
address
some
of
the
repairs
that
are
needed
are
needed
there.
That
is
something
that
mpha
has
has
has
has
done.
M
They
have
used
some
of
those
new
tools
that
HUD
has
provided
to
raise
private
Capital,
to
fund
the
preservation
and
and
re
Rehabilitation
of
their
units.
Additionally,
the
state
does
have
some
called
a
public
Housing
Opportunity
program,
it's
an
annual
competitive
basis.
M
It's
a
really
small
amount
of
funding
and
PHA
does
apply
for
State
funding
and
has
been
successful
and
getting
some
State
funding
and
I
believe
the
county
has
provided
some
financial
support
for
MPH
for
project
specific
type
work
such
as
the
84
unit,
family,
scattered
site
project,
the
City
of
Minneapolis.
We
don't
receive
any
direct
funding
from
the
state
or
federal
government
that
we
don't
receive
direct
funding
that
is
intended
to
support
mpha.
M
So
most
of
the
funds
that
we
have
allocated
to
two
mpha
in
the
past
have
been
funds
that
could
really
go
for
any
of
our
housing
and
and
Economic
Development
type
activities.
Great.
E
Yeah,
so
this
question
is
around
kind
of
staff
and
capacity
just
the
spring.
Around
arpa
I
was
really
proud
to
have
worked
with
several
of
my
colleagues
to
move
about
7,
000
or
700
000
towards
the
Business
technical
assistance
program,
specifically
in
the
cultural
corridors.
E
I
also
know
you
know
our
office
wanted
to
see
way
more
into
five
Millions
area
of
investments
in
that,
but
during
discussions
around
that
Amendment
we
were
told
you
know
from
cpad
that
there
was
not
Staffing
capacity
to
handle
additional
funding.
So
I
would
like
to
know
kind
of
in
the
landscape.
With
some
of
these
proposals
in
front
of
us
around,
you
know
support
for
additional
programs
in
your
Ideal
World
kind
of
what
would
full
Staffing
for
the
small
business
team.
Look
like.
M
Sure,
chair,
Koski,
councilmember
wansley.
Thank
you
for
that
question
and
really
appreciate
it.
I
know
you're
going
out
with
our
small
business
team
soon
to
do
some
door,
knocking
so
really
appreciate
your
support
for
that
work.
I'm
going
to
ask
director
Eric
Hansen
to
come
up
and
speak
more
specifically
to
our
implementation
of
arpa
funding
for
our
business
supports.
P
Madam
chair
members
of
the
committee,
councilmember
wansley,
my
name
is
Eric
Hansen
I'm,
the
economic
development
director.
The
staff
capacity
we
discussed
earlier
in
the
year
is
more
of
the
community-based
organizations
that
we're
working
with
and
where
they're
hitting
a
maximum,
and
so
as
they
start
to
find
you
know
potentially
more
folks
to
work
for
them.
Then
they
could
probably
serve
more
businesses.
P
P
As
far
as
like
what
full
full
capacity,
the
the
change
items
you
see
in
economic
policy
and
development
can
be
handled
through
the
existing
staff.
We
will
have
some
attrition,
that's
just
natural.
We
have
a
couple
of
open
positions
that
we
are
trying
to
hire
to
keep
that
moving.
It
is
an
enormous
amount
of
work
for
the
five
soon
to
be
five
subgroups
of
the
of
the
division
in,
and
we
have
I'll
acknowledge
that
we
have
a
staff
team
that
is
pretty
fatigued
over
the
last
few
years.
P
It's
been
a
real
excruciatingly,
intense
ride
to
help
with
the
recovery
work,
and
so
this
stuff
is
important
for
us,
the
city
is
doing
really
important
work
to
address
not
only
the
racial
disparities
we
see
in
wealth
building
and
Economic
Opportunity,
but
also
recovering
from
the
pandemic
and
the
unrest
and
we'll
continue
that
work
and
these
change
items
we
think
are
going
to
help
with
that.
But
it's
it's
going
to
be
a
challenge
for
us
to
get
it
all
done.
C
Thank
you,
madam
chair,
and
thank
you
workers
for
joining
us
today,
there's
actually
building
on
council
member
wansley's
question
on
b-tap
I'm,
most
familiar
with
btap
but
I.
You
know
I've
I'm,
learning
more
about
DTaP
and
then
I'm
I
remembered
hearing
about
c-tap
and
then
even
the
idea
of
atap
for
arts,
and
so
my
My
overall
question
is:
you
know
across
a
number
of
these
technical
assistance
programs.
C
It
seems
that
we're
allocating
budget
according
to
each
or
is
this
a
lump
allocation
for
technical
assistance
that
your
team
is
using
discretion
yeah
looking
at
our
staff
capacity,
our
partner
capacity
is
there.
How
is
that
funding
allocated
and
and
I
was
also
specifically
curious
about
atap,
because
I
remember
hearing
about
that
years
ago,.
M
Chairkovsky
councilmember
Payne.
Thank
you
for
the
question.
I'm
going
to
ask
Eric
to
come
up
back
up
again,
he's
more.
P
P
The
developer
or
technical
assistance
program
has
been
expanded
with
the
first
year.
We've
gotten
back
to
the
cohort
model,
but
we've
noticed
through
the
commercial
property
Development
Fund
that
some
emerging
entrepreneur
develop
entrepreneurial
developers
are
having
difficulty
getting
through
the
development
process.
So
we
expanded
that
program
to
provide
one-on-one
technical
assistance
from
with
experienced
real
estate
developers
to
get
them
through
the
process
and
we've
seen
some
work
some
accomplishments
through
that
program,
the
ctap
program
is,
was
expanded
to
help
with
the
costs
of
creating
a
co-op.
P
So
we
have
a
cohort
program
for
that
as
well.
But
now,
if,
if
you're
converting
from
an
existing
business
into
a
co-op,
the
city
can
help
provide
for
that
financial
burden
to
get
you
into
this
c-tip.
We
just
started
that
back
up
again
after
the
the
pandemic,
and
so
we
have
not
seen
that
bear
fruit
yet,
but
we're
still
working
on
that
and
then
the
atap
is,
is
in
the
office
of
arts
and
culture
and
I'm
not
really
familiar
with
all
of
the
specific
about
that.
P
G
Thank
you,
turkovsky
director,
Brennan
I
want
to
talk
about
change.
Item
number
seven
regarding
the
renter
eviction
representation,
which
is
on
page
33
of
your
slide,
drag
slide
deck,
which
is
asking
for
five
hundred
thousand
dollars
in
ongoing
funding,
starting
in
2024
for
eviction,
representation.
G
I
and
that
this
program
is
currently
funded
at
250
000
per
year
and
then
starting
2024
that
would
go
up
to
seven
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
dollars
per
year.
Very
exciting
I
saw
data,
shared
I,
think
back
in
early
August
by
commissioner
Angela
Conley,
who
co-chairs
heading
home,
Hennepin
I,
know
you're
talking
about
that
during
your
budget
presentation
earlier
that
you
know
essentially
sharing
the
the
rapid
increase
in
eviction
filings
following
the
end
of
the
eviction
moratorium.
So
something
between
like
May
of
2022
and
June
of
2022.
G
We
saw
eviction
filings
double
across
across
the
county
and,
of
course,
the
City
of
Minneapolis
accounts,
for
you
know
a
smaller,
a
small
portion
of
the
the
full
County,
but
generally
speaking,
that
is
pretty
good
data
to
look
to,
and
so
you
know,
I
I
saw
that
and
I
see
this.
G
This
change
item
and
I'm
I'm
wondering
if
you
can
speak
to
the
gap
between
when,
like
when
we
increase
the
amount
of
money
that
that
the
city
allocates
for
eviction
representation.
When
we
see
such
a
rapid
increase
right
now,
and
is
that
existing
250
000
enough
to
meet
such
a
rapid
increase
in
need
in
this
area,.
M
Chair
Koski
councilmember.
Thank
you
for
that
that
question
in
all
of
the
context,
you're
exactly
right.
After
the
end
of
the
eviction
moratorium,
unfort
and
the
end
of
the
emergency
rental
assistance.
M
This
summer
we
have
seen
a
pretty
significant
uptick
in
evictions
that
are
filed
in
in
in
the
city
in
the
county,
and
your
question
is
a
really
good
one,
because
it
is
a
little
bit
of
a
moving
Target,
because
we
haven't
exactly
been
in
like
sort
of
normal
times,
and
so
you
know
there
was
the
eviction
moratorium
and
then
all
the
emergency
assistance
and
the
and
then
now
that's
those
are
both
ending
and
we've.
Also,
the
landscape
has
shifted
a
little
bit.
M
Hennepin
County
has
now
provided
support
for
in-house
attorneys,
who
are
also
representing
people
at
housing
court.
So
they
have
brought
pretty
significant
additional
capacity
to
to
provide
this,
to
really
meet
this
like
right
to
council
and
making
sure
that
anybody
who
goes
to
housing
court
has
access
to
legal
representation,
because
we
know
that
the
outcomes
are
significantly
better
if
there
is
legal
representation,
so
with
a
county
I'm
stepping
into
the
space
and
providing
more
capacity
there.
M
So
it's
a
bit
of
a
moving
Target.
Our
best
estimate
right
now
is
that
for
the
cities
part
of
this
that
750
000
is
our
best
estimate
of
what
would
be
sufficient
to
provide
legal
representation
to
people
at
housing
court.
Now
that
could
change
and
we'll
have
to
see
we'll
have
to
track
this
very
closely
and
and
if
that,
if,
if
it
appears
that
that's
not
sufficient,
then
you
know
we're
going
to
be
tracking
that
very
closely
and
we'll
certainly
make
sure
that
we
are
alerting
policy
makers
to
to
that
situation.
G
In
the
absence
of
or
in
that
Gap
time
between,
you
know
now
and
2024,
when
this
funding
will
will
increase,
are,
are
you
guys
or
are
you
and
cped,
having
conversations
about
like
increasing
or
adding
new
rental
assistance?
While
you
know
no
one
else
is
doing
that
work
right
now,.
M
Sure
cherkovski
comes
from
Rich
hug
tie,
so
the
reason
why
there's
a
gap
between
now
and
2024
is
because
we
did
allocate
over
a
million
dollars
of
ARP
funding
so
that
that
750
000
per
year
is
the
level
we're
going
to
be
funding
this
at
in
2023,
based
on
allocations
that
you've
already
made,
and
so
it's
where
we're
going
to
run
out
of
those
funds
in
2023,
and
so
that's
why
we
need
this
500
000
starting
in
2024,
because
that's
when
we're
gonna
see
a
gap
in
in
service
levels.
M
If
we
don't
increase
or
find
substitute
funding
for
the
federal
funds
we
have,
we
had.
There
have
been
opportunities
to
apply
for
additional
federal
emergency
housing
assistance.
We
have
applied
for
those
funds
in
partnership
with
Hennepin,
County
and
I,
don't
believe,
we've
heard
yet
yeah
we
haven't.
We
haven't
yet
heard
if,
if
we're
receiving
an
allocation
of
funds,
but
we
are
certainly
going
after
those
funding
opportunities
as
they
become
available.
Thank.
E
You
chair
just
going
back
to
my
first
question
earlier
about
just
policy
I,
try
to
reword
it
in
a
way
to
try
to
get
to
where
I
think
I
was
going.
So
do
you
envision
cped,
elevating
its
policy
work
either.
You
know
policy
that's
initiated
through
Council
the
legislative
side
and
based
off
of
a
majority
of
my
colleagues
voting
under
government
restructure
to
give
the
mayor
executive
the
authorities
to
also
provide
policy
proposals,
we're
anticipating
policy
recommendations
through
that
side
as
well.
E
But
do
you
essentially
see
a
space
in
dedicating
staff
to
advance
that
and
knowing
that
we,
as
you
mentioned,
have
rent
control?
Underworks
toppa
has
been
on
pause
indefinitely
and
knowing
that
that's
a
council
initiative
policy
that
is
still
and
has
not
come
back
to
us
and
I
would
love
to
hear
again,
like
other
departments
have
come
forward
with
other
policy
proposals.
Other
like
substantial
policies,
again,
council
member
Chuck
Todd
just
raised
around
just
some
of
the
evictions.
E
We
literally
have
an
action
outside
of
city
hall
right
now
with
unhoused
Neighbors
in
response
to
the
mass
displacement
of
hundreds
of
unhoused
people
just
last
Wednesday
and
one
day,
any
type
of
policy
work
around
evictions
and
encampments.
So
I
just
want
to
see
if
we're
thinking
of
actually
seriously
funding
that
policy
work
within
Siege
pit.
I
hear
a
lot
of
allocations
about
the
services
that
we're
doing,
but
not
necessarily
that
proactive
like
how
we're
getting
at
the
structural
issues
that
drive
many
of
these
Social
Services
to
be
in
existence.
M
Sure
chairkovski
councilor
wansley.
Thank
you
for
that
that
question.
In
all
of
that
context
too,
what
I
can
say
is
that
we,
you
know
again.
Our
policy
function
is
really
small
in
cped
it's
really
one
policy
person,
and
then
we
have
a
manager
of
of
that
unit.
M
That
also
lends
some
support
to
policy
development,
but
we
have
certainly
been
you
know
the
last
couple
of
years
very
proactive
in
working
with
the
city
council
on
very
specific
policies,
so
I
mean
even
you
know
the
right
to
council
ordinance
a
lot
of
the
policies
that
have
come
forward,
especially
around
tenant
protections.
We've
worked
really
closely
with
with
Council
councilman
policy
makers
on
developing
and
bringing
those
forward.
M
What
that
looks
like
in
the
under
the
new
government
structure,
I
think,
is
you
know
what
what
I
Envision
is
that
you'll
will
still
need,
subject
matter,
expertise
to
participate
in
this
policy
making
and
I
look
forward
to
lending
that
City
to
policies
that
are
being
developed
by
by
our
legislative
body.
All
of
you
and
I
mean
we.
We
have
played
a
significant
role
in
the
past,
and
I
would
expect
that
that
would
continue
right
now.
M
A
lot
of
the
capacity
in
that
policy
function
is
really
focused
on
on
supporting
the
rent
stabilization
work
room,
so
that
is
where
a
lot
of
the
focus
is
right
now
and
as
that,
as
that
moves
forward,
you
know
we.
We
certainly
are
happy
to
look
at
other
other
policy
work
that
that
needs
to
get
done
and
that
this
this
body
identifies
as
priorities.
E
A
You
yeah
thank
you
director,
Brennan
for
being
here
today.
Thank
you
for
the
to
the
cped
team
for
joining
us
and
welcome
Meg
McMahon
to
the
City
of
Minneapolis.
So
thank
you
for
joining
us
today.
I
also
just
want
to
acknowledge
that
councilmember
Ellison
had
joined
us
briefly
and
I
know
had
to
step
out
again,
but
just
want
for
to
acknowledge
that,
for
the
record
so
see
no
further
discussion
at
this
point,
I'll
direct
the
clerk
to
file
those
presentations.
A
Our
next
budget
committee
meeting
is
scheduled.
You
can
go
ahead
and
sit
down
if
you'd,
like
our
next
budget
committee
meeting,
is
scheduled
for
Thursday
October
13th
at
10.
A.M
that
day
we
are
set
to
hear
from
the
convention
center
finance
and
Property
Services
and
the
health
department,
with
that
we've
concluded
all
business
to
come
before
the
committee
today
and
without
objection.
I
will
declare
this
meeting
adjourned.
