A
All
right
well
good
afternoon,
everyone,
it's
good
to
see
all
of
you
today.
Normally
we
don't
start
the
committee
off
down
here,
but
we
have
a
very
special
recognition
this
week,
which
is
our
national
public
works
week.
So
we
wanted
to
invite.
We've
got
some
of
our
Crews
here.
If
you
could
please
come
on
down
some
of
our
employees,
I
I
know
we
have
several
of
you
here.
We
also
have
our
director
and
our
vice
chair
here
as
well.
Welcome
welcome
thank.
B
C
A
D
A
See
with
me
here,
but
we've
we've
got
some
special
guests
with
us.
Today:
we've
got
Janet
Janice
page
welcome,
Gretchen,
Peterson
and
jasna
hadzik
standing.
Thank
you
for
being
here
today
with
us,
and
we
have
so
Janice
is
a
member
of
women
ERG
and
is
field
staff
in
our
ramps.
Tmr
ramps
we've
got
Gretchen
is
with
surface
or
storm
water
and
infrastructure.
I'm
doing.
C
C
A
Aaron
you're
in
TBS,
yep
and
part
of
women,
ERG
and
then
jasna.
You
are
in.
A
C
A
A
E
E
I
want
to
say
that
I
have
been
over
at
the
Capitol
in
the
last
10
days,
and
one
of
the
things
I
think
is
universally
held
there,
and
here
is
how
important
Public
Works
is
to
getting
stuff
done,
and
you
are
all
seen
as
doers
you're
all
seen
as
problem
solvers,
and
that
is
truth,
because
that
is
what
you
do
and
so
I
appreciate.
All
of
you
you
represent
today
up
here.
The
1100
people
in
public
works
and
I
also
want
to
say
something
about
I.
Think
it's
important
to
remember
that.
E
Not
only
does
Public
Works
make
the
city
work,
we
you
know.
Without
these
these
key
functions.
We
really
wouldn't
be
a
city,
it
sort
of
defines
what
a
city
is,
and
the
other
part
of
it
I
think,
is
how
important
these
jobs
are
and
have
been
historically
to
to
building
a
good
life,
a
life
for
you
for
your
family
members
to
be
able
to
contribute
more
broadly
to
society
because
of
the
type
of
work
you
do
and
I
want
to.
Thank
you
for
being
part
of
this
team.
It's
an
honor
to
lead.
E
You
and
you
know,
being
back
at
the
Capitol
I
see
a
lot
of
people
who
ask
me:
do
you?
Do
you
like
what
you
do
and
I
say,
I
love
what
I
do
and
I
love
the
people
I
work
with,
and
so
I
hope
you
get
that
every
day
people
appreciate
what
you
do
so
much
and
thank
you
for
all
your
problem
solving
and
thanks
to
our
elected
officials
who
honor
you
both
through
the
work
that
they
do
to
support
us
as
public
works.
So
thank
you.
A
And
and
I'm
going
to
Quick
turn
over
to
our
vice
chair
Council,
our
vice
chair
of
the
committee
council,
member
Koski,.
F
One
thing
that
was
so
important
to
me
was
to
be
able
to
understand
and
learn
what
the
role
that
you
do
each
and
every
day,
and
so
many
of
you
have
opened
your
your
trucks
and
your
shovels
to
me
in
order
to
understand
and
learn
and
really
get
hands-on
experience
and
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
for
all
of
the
hard
work
that
all
of
you
do
and
the
dedication
so
I
I
appreciate
you
being
able
to
open
that
experience
up
to
each
and
every
one
of
us
as
well.
Thank
you.
A
And
and
I'm
just
going
to
throw
a
quick
plug
out
there.
This
weekend,
I
went
to
the
doors
open,
Minneapolis
I,
stopped
by
our
East
Side
maintenance
facilities.
Here,
deputy
director
over
there
and
Jen
Swanson,
who
I
I
came
out
there
with
my
three-year-old
and
first
off,
he
was
more
excited
than
I,
was
I
was
very
excited
and
he
was
literally
running
around
the
place
and
just
just
so
impressed
by
everything
that
the
city
does,
and
that
was
just
a
small
taste
of
it
and
I
think
for
kids.
A
A
But
really
you
got
to
think
about
all
the
people
behind
it
at
the
end
of
the
day,
because
all
this
infrastructure
wasn't
I
mean
it's
built
with
machines,
but
it's
built
by
people
for
people
in
our
city
to
really
make
everything
else,
work
and
everything
else
run,
and
so
it's
just
such
an
impressive
effort
and
I
wanted
to
see
if
any
of
our,
if
any
of
our
honorees
today
wanted
to
say
a
few
words
impromptu
I
know.
B
Yeah
I'm
just
proud
to
be
a
part
of
the
city
and
history,
because
every
day
you
see
women
out
there
like
us,
representing
it,
makes
another
girl
want
to
come
and
represent
the
City
of
Minneapolis
too
and
I
want
that
to
be
part
of
our
future.
For
the
City
of
Minneapolis
is
to
see
more
boots
on
the
ground,
women
out
there
working
hard
and
making
sure
that
we
get
everything
fixed
like
it
should
be
so
everybody's
happy
in
the
city
go
Ward.
Four.
Thank
you.
G
A

was
fun.

We'll
move
on
to
our
public
hearing,
which
is
the
stormwater
Management
program
and
annual
report
and
director
Anderson
Keller,
who
will
be
presenting
on
this
item.
E
C
You,
council,
member
Johnson
and
committee
members.
Thank
you
very
much.
My
name
isagi
and
I'm
very
happy
to
be
here
today
to
share
with
you
about
our
stormwater
Management
program.
Both
the
City
of
Minneapolis
and
Minneapolis,
Park
and
Border
recreational
board
are
co-perimities
of
the
our
stormwater
permit
and,
as
part
of
the
requirement
of
that
pyramid
annually
were
to
hold
a
public
hearing
where
we
see
public
input
regarding
the
public
regarding
the
storm
water
management
program
and
the
purpose
of
the
public
hearing
today
is
that
for
that
reason,.
C
Let
me
share
with
you
I
work
within
our
regular
regulatory
team
and
I
also
love
what
I
do
I
enjoy
it.
Much
I
work
in
a
team
where
our
motto
is:
we
we
don't
do
everything,
but
we
make
sure
that
everything
gets
done
around
storm
water
and
that's
really
what
we
do,
and
one
of
the
things
that
we
do
is
tracking
and
reporting
of
our
national
pollutant
discharge,
elimination
system
or
npds
storm
water
permit,
and
we
do
it
for
helping
people
in
Minneapolis
to
have
clean
water
for
recreation
and
enjoyment.
C
Now
we
do
that
through
a
number
of
different
programs.
We
have
programs
such
as
adopted
drain
program,
which
it's
a
program
where
we
empower
the
local
residents
and
communities
to
adopt
a
catch
basins
in
their
neighborhood
and
to
clean
it
and
they
maintain
it
and
they
collect
the
debris
and
prevent
it
from
going
Downstream,
and
this
program
was
actually
rated
as
top
number
one
in
the
country.
C
We
have
other
programs,
such
as
the
interpretive
science,
where
we
have
installed
with
various
different
water
quality,
Pond
areas
where
we
communicate
with
with
the
community,
with
the
community
about
the
benefits
and
features
of
the
water
quality
ponds
and
how
they
protect
our
water
quality.
C
We
also
have
salt
management,
where
we
focus
on
reducing
the
use
of
salt
or
chloride
on
our
surfaces
and
Roads
during
the
winter,
and
we
also
have
green
storm
water
infrastructure,
where
we
use
storm
water
practices
with
plants
to
soak
up
the
rain
where
it
falls
so
so
preventing
the
rain
from
going
Downstream,
reducing
the
storm
water.
We,
of
course
we
also
have
a
program
about
focusing
on
minimizing
the
issues
of
bacteria
in
our
storm
water.
C
Now
what
happens
when
we
change
the
landscape
and
we
impact
the
landscape
and
we
transform
some
of
that
previous
area
into
the
impervious
area.
Of
course,
we're
not
going
to
have
as
much
water
finding
their
way
into
the
ground,
then
we're
not
going
to
have
as
much
water
evaporating
into
the
atmosphere.
So
we
have
more
water
diverted
as
storm
water
runoff.
So
we
don't
generate
more
water,
we're
just
diverting
more
of
that
water
into
the
runoff
and
that's
the
issue
with
excessive
storm
water
runoff,
because
it
causes
a
number
of
problems.
C
Basically,
we
end
up
with
too
much
water
on
top
of
the
hill.
Moving
way
too
fast,
Downstream
and
as
it
goes
down,
it
washes
all
the
pollutant,
causes
erosion
and
degrades
the
water
quality
Downstream.
So
those
are
really
the
issues
with
the
storm
water
or,
more
specifically,
with
the
excessive
storm
water,
and
we
have
Solutions
and
we
do
a
number
of
projects.
We
have
number
of
programs
to
address
those
issues
again.
The
same
programs
that
we
talked
about
adopted
dream
where
we
catch
the
debris.
C
We
remove
the
nutrients
before
it
gets
washed
down
the
street
and
we
have
our
water
quality
parts
to
ensure
the
quality
of
the
storm
Waters,
and
we
also
have
the
salt
management,
which
we'll
talk
more,
even
and
as
far
as
green
infrastructure
and
minimizing
the
impact
of
bacteria
in
our
storm
water.
So
those
are
again
the
same
programs
that
we
have
been
working
on
and
we
have
made
big
strides.
C
I
like
these
slides,
I'm
borrowing.
It
actually
from
my
supervisor
is
to
pick
shows
the
picture
from
1930
from
Mississippi
River
versus
today,
and
we
have
done
and
it's
nice
to
see
what
we
have
accomplished
by
constructing
separate
storm
and
sanitary
drain
system,
where
we're
preventing
the
pollutants
get
to
into
the
river
So
today
we're
doing
much
better
than
what
we
did
decades
ago.
So
the
hard
work
is
paying
off,
which
is
good
and
of
course,
this
has
been
Guided
by
rules
and
regulations,
and
it's
been
Guided
by
the
Clean
Water
Act
since
1972.
C
the
Clean
Water
Act
that
gave
rise
to
the
mpdss
permit
and
eventually
to
what
we
call
today.
Municipal
separate
storm,
sewer
system
or
ms4
permit
now
again
the
purpose
of
this
program.
The
purpose
of
the
permit
is
to
prevent
too
much
water
moving
too
fast,
Downstream
and
washing
the
pollutants
down
with
the
downstream
and
degrading
the
water
quality.
So
that
is
the
purpose
of
our
pyramid
and
I
said
we
have
a
robust,
stormwater
Management
program
with
the
different
Focus
areas,
such
as
public
education,
public
participation,
Good,
Housekeeping
and
storm
water
monitoring.
C
Those
are
all
the
different
programs
that
we're
involved
with
now,
if
you
may
ask,
so
what
is
ahead?
What
can
we
do?
What
is
the
head
and
storm
water
management?
Perhaps
there
are
three
focused
areas:
one
would
be
managing
trash,
I.
Think
we'll
be.
We
need
to
address
the
ever
increasing
and
present
trash
and
debris
in
the
storm.
Water
and
the
city
has
already
began
a
number
of
initiatives
to
address
the
issue
of
trash
in
the
storm
water.
C
We
also
have
to
deal
with
continuing
reducing
the
use
of
salt
on
our
roads
and
our
surfaces
now
we'll
talk
about
that,
a
little
bit
more
and
focusing
on
minimizing
the
issues
with
bacteria
and
pathogens
on
our
storm
water,
and
that
is
something
we're
working
on
as
well.
But
let
me
share
a
little
bit
about
salt.
C
Of
course.
Salt
is
a
natural
product
and
of
course,
Salt
Water
happens
naturally
all
around
us.
What
I'm
trying
to
share
with
you?
How
small
amount
of
salt
can
impact
fresh
water
just
for
comparison,
fresh
water?
It
has
a
salt
if
you
were
to
measure
it
with
grams
per
liter
or
PPT
for
that
measure.
Just
a
unit
is
you're.
C
Looking
at
you
know,
drinking
water
would
have
about
zero
amount
of
salt,
and
a
fresh
water
has
actually
can
only
have
up
to
tenth
of
a
gram
of
salt
per
liter,
so
very
small
amount
of
salt,
whereas
the
sea
water,
for
example,
ocean
has
30,
which
is
about
300
times
more
than
fresh
water.
So
it
doesn't
take
that
much
salt
to
change
the
freshwater
ecosystem,
actually
anything
more
than
tenth
of
a
gram
per
liter.
C
What
is
what
we
consider
an
ecological
impact
and
up
to
0.23
parts
per
thousand
is
when
we
talk
about
The
Chronic
conditions
where,
if
fish
or
plants
that
are
exposed
for
a
long
time,
debris
stressed
and
of
course
they
get
immediate
response
to
the
acute
standards.
So
the
message
is
it
just
takes
a
little
bit
of
a
salt
to
change
the
Minnesota
fresh
water.
Salt
is
not
the
problem,
but
it's
just
not
part
of
the
Minnesota
freshwater
lake
system.
C
So
why
are
we
focusing
on
reducing
salt
and
chloride,
because
we
have
evidence
that
chloride
or
salt
it's
finding
its
way
into
our
ponds
and
lakes?
Fortunately,
Minneapolis
Park
and
Recreation
board
has
been
monitoring
our
water
quality,
at
least
for
decades,
and
we
can
look
at
this
data.
For
example,
we
have
the
brownie
Lake
in
this
graph
that
you
can
see
since
2010,
you
can
see
a
steady
increase
in
the
concentration
of
chloride.
C
C
So
you
have
a
lot
more
concentration
of
salt
in
the
bottom,
which
is
the
problem
by
itself,
because
the
salt
water
is
heavier
gas
on
the
bottom
is
too
heavy
to
allow
for
the
natural
circulation
or
mixing
of
the
legs,
which
is
exasperated
problem
because
it
creates
an
oxygen
condition
or
no
oxygen,
which
leads
into
nutrients
or
potential
nutrients
and
pollutants
leaching
from
the
sediment.
So
it
just
impacts
the
legs
in
a
number
of
different
ways.
So
again,
the
message
is
that
salt,
salt
or
chloride
is
finding
its
way
into
our
lakes
and
ponds.
C
Now,
Minneapolis
we've
been
doing
a
lot
of
different
activities
in
reducing
the
salt.
Thanks
to
our
team,
we
have
had
40
reduction
in
use
of
salt
since
2001
and
over
60
percent
reduction
in
use
of
sand.
So
it's
been
working
very
well
and
we
have
effective
public
education
and
staff
training.
We
have
a
education
program,
both
supported
by
Minneapolis
parking
education
board
and
we
also
have
been
lucky
to
have
had
a
green
Corps
member
at
our
with
our
team
for
the
past
three
years,
focusing
on
chloride
reduction.
C
Just
in
the
past
year
in
2022,
we
were
able
to
train
over
140
of
our
staff,
with
what
we
call
Smart
salting,
which
is
how
do
we
apply
salt,
be
mindful
of
salt
and
apply
safely
and
still
reduce
the
use
of
it.
However,
there's
an
area
we
haven't
done
much
since
1990s,
and
we
need
to
address
that.
That's
the
storage
of
salt.
Where
do
we
store
the
salt
that
we
need
to
use
for
our
operation?
And
that
is
the
important
issue.
C
The
picture
I'm
showing
with
you
are
a
couple
of
this
are
a
storage
sites,
and
one
is
the
public
facility
will
offer
where
we
free,
where
we
offer
free
salt
to
the
public
and
the
other
one
is
the
storage
area
that
we
use
for
our
own
City
use.
Now
the
problem
with
this
storage
site
is
that
the
city's
existing
salt
stores
are
currently
out
of
date,
they're
just
simply
out
of
date
and
old.
They
go
against
the
best
practices
and
can
be
occasionally
problematic
and
there
are
potentially
polluting
the
environment.
C
Now
we
know
the
solution.
The
solution
is
that
we
need
salt
storage
facilities
that
offer
free
and
Equitable
the
iso
access
to
the
public.
They
use
best
management
practices
and
operating
efficiently
and
they
incorporate
education,
and
they
also
resolve
the
city's
ownership
status.
With
some
of
this
storage
site.
We
also
know
that
good
permanent
salt
storage
will
offer
less
waste,
will
decrease
the
storage
maintenance,
cost
and
offer
improved
material
quality,
and
also
more
important
that
a
good
salt
storage
will
be
in
compliance
with
our
stormwater
permit.
C
So
what
is
ahead
in
the
storm
water
management?
What
can
we
do
again?
Those
are
the
three
focused
areas
that
we're
going
to
be
working
on:
managing
our
trash
continue
to
reduce
in
the
use
of
salt
and
focusing
on
how
we
can
minimize
the
issues
of
bacteria
in
our
storm
water,
plus
everything
else
that
we've
been
doing
so
we
have
much
work
ahead
of
us
and
but
moving
forward.
C
What
we're
asking
is
to
hold
the
public
hearing
to
receive
comments
on
the
storm
water
management
plan
and
to
authorize
the
staff
to
send
our
annual
report
to
Minnesota
Pollution
Control
agency
with
that.
Thank
you
again.
If
you
have
any
questions.
A
J
Chair
Johnson
I,
just
had
I
saw
in
a
couple
of
slides
or
towards
the
end
of
the
presentation
you
mentioned
sand.
I.
Think
a
lot
of
the
presentation
talked
about
the
negative
or
consequence
consequential
impacts
of
sand.
I
mean
salt.
Can
you
speak
to
the
impacts
of
standing
as
well?
I
know
I've
gotten
inquiries
about
that
from
the
community
of
how
that
also
impacts
like
our
freshwater
Source
when
we're
using
excess
amount
of
sand,
especially
during
the
winter
time.
So
just
wanted
to
see
if
you
could
speak
to
the
impacts
of
that.
Briefly,
too,.
C
C
That's
what
we
strive
for
and,
of
course,
Sand
by
itself
would
be
it
could
be
considered
pollutant
because
it
can
impact
the
environment
Downstream,
and
it
can
it's
a
logistical
issue
as
well
as
it
gets
into
our
sediment
ponds
or
water
quality
ponds
which
fills
up
the
ponds
and
minimizes
the
volume
for
water
quality.
So
it's
by
itself
it
can.
It
can
impact
the
environment,
did
I
answer
the
question.
J
A
little
bit
I'll
follow
up
a
little
bit
more
I
think
particular
concerns
that
I've
heard
is,
it
seems,
like
sand,
has
been
positioned
as
a
better
alternative
towards
salt
I've,
often
heard,
but
knowing
there
was
a
couple
years
ago
where
there
was
actually
a
sand
shortage
and
also
knowing
where
are
we
retrieving
the
sand
from,
is
that
coming
from
you
know
our
lakes,
oceans
and
things
of
that
nature?
J
What
was
contributing
to
that
shortage
and
if
it
was
the
demand
for
the
sand
as
alternatives
to
our
salt,
so
I
know,
there's
been
a
lot
of
environmental
like
scientists
who
have
reached
out
in
my
word
about
okay,
if
there's
been
push
pushings
for
folks
to
supplement
or
replace
their
salt
usage
during
winter
times
with
sand,
knowing
that
ecological
impacts
of
that
too,
so
I
just
wanted
to
follow
up
on
that,
you
offer
the
piece
about
it.
J
You
know
it's
pollutant
impacts,
but
wanted
to
know
if
there
was
also
again
any
information
about
if
it
doesn't
seem
like
on
that
basis,
like
it's
a
better
alternative
to
sin,
but
just
wanted
to
see
if
staff
could
speak
to
that
too,
because
again,
I've
gotten
this
inquiry
for
a
number
of
organizations
that
specialize
in
environmental
work.
C
E
Mr,
chair
and
councilman
wanza
I'm,
not
sure
I
can
fully
answer
it,
but
I
do
you
know
the
the
trend
has
been
to
use
more
sand
sand
being
naturally
occurring
less
polluting
than
Salt
I
think
that
there
was
a
concern
about
shortage
of
sand
and
I
think
this
is
an
issue
with
with
quarrying
of
sand
and
the
crushing
of
materials
to
to
get
sand
into
our
system.
E
I
have
not
heard
that
lately,
but
we
can
work
with
Mr
palman's
team
to
look
at
kind
of
what
the
supply
chain
looks
like
for
sand
going
forward.
There
are
some
other
Alternatives
out
there
as
well
I.
We
may
use
a
few
less
of
these,
but
you
know
one
of
the
things
that
MnDOT
uses
on
our
roadways
nowadays
is
something
called
beat
heat
which
is
actually
from
sugar
beets,
and
it's
an
all.
E
It's
a
natural
product
that
gets
applied
wet
to
the
roadway
and
they've
had
good
success
with
that,
the
there
are
a
few
other
things
like
that
that
have
been
worked
on.
That,
therefore,
could
replace
sand.
The
issue,
I
think,
is
at
a
certain
temp.
E
Those
products
are
not
as
helpful
right,
and
so
that's
where
we
get
back
to
you,
know
assault,
sand
mix
or
a
sand
mix
to
give
that
that
grip
for
people,
so
I,
think
you
know,
I
I
do
suspect
that
sand
is
going
to
be
with
us
for
a
while
as
one
of
our
Solutions,
because
it
is
less
polluting
than
the
salt
to
our
water,
but
I
think
your
supply
chain
issue.
Question
is
a
really
good
one.
J
As
we're
talking
about
rent
stabilization
and
construction
costs,
you
need
sand
to
also
build
it's
a
material
and
if
there
was
a
shortage
and
I
think
that
contributed
to
the
higher
construction
costs
of
the
shortage
of
sand,
that's
used
for
building
materials
and
then
how
that
was
leveraging
rental
costs
or
the
rise
in
rent
so
recognizing
like
how
all
of
these
enter
sex
with
one
another.
So
just
wanted
to
get
a
fuller
picture.
J
I
I
know
saying
it
sucks
around
this
I
mean
salt,
it's
already
interchanging
them
and
was
just
wanting
to
see
a
little
bit
more
of
that
in
the
presentation.
But
yeah
staff
could
work
to
give
a
little
Fuller
picture
of
what
you
just
laid
out.
I
think
that
would
be
great
and
I
can
share
that
with
my
constituents.
I
Thank
you,
chair,
Johnson
I'll,
preface
my
question
with
I
had
been
working
with
the
park
board,
mostly
around
our
Parkway
maintenance
program
and
through
that
process
got
a
lot
more
education
about
storm
water
management,
and
one
of
the
things
that
came
up
in
our
discussion
was
around
some
of
the
power
sharing
agreements
so
where
Public
Works
manages
the
maintenance
for
the
parkway,
even
though
the
parkway
is
in
their
jurisdiction.
I
also
learned
about
us
having
this
kind
of
joint
permit
around
storm
water
management
and
I'm,
just
kind
of
reflecting
on
your
slide.
I
C
E
You
Mr,
chair
and
councilmember
Payne
I
think
you
we're
all
well
aware,
there's
sort
of
an
active
discussion
going
on
right
now,
request
from
the
Minneapolis
Park
and
Recreation
board
towards
the
city
that
will
come
through
the
budgeting
process
both
for
you
know,
the
current
agreement
on
Parkways
is
a
maintenance
agreement
and
I
think
we
would
all
say
that
there
is
a
need
there
to
work
together
to
find
some
more
resources
to
help
us
continue
to
maintain
and
and
potentially
even
reconstruct
Parkways
with
the
park
board,
I
think
on
the
storm
water
issues.
E
You
know
we
have
an
active,
active
collaboration
with
the
park
board
to
keep
our
Waters
cleaner
and
in
better
shape
than
they
are
today.
E
The
the
issue
with
the
idea
of
how
do
we
do
that
and
make
sure
that
you
know
we
have
a
very
built
out
Department
around
this,
that
NG
craft
leads
directorcraft,
leads
and
so
I
think
we're
interested
in.
How
can
we
partner
more
in
doing
that
sort
of
work,
especially
around
green
infrastructure?
That
will
help
us.
E
You
know
catch
those
slow
down
the
runoff
as
it's
coming
off,
try
to
get
back
to
having
the
environment,
do
some
of
the
cleaning
work
right
and
that's
the
idea
behind
that
that
green
infrastructure
so
I
think
through
the
budgeting
process,
as
well
as
through
collaborative
work.
We
are
actually
having
two
work
teams
already
work
with
the
park
board,
both
on
Parkways
and
on
the
storm
water
request
to
see.
If
we
can,
you
know,
figure
out
a
proposal
to
come
forward.
I
And
I'll
I'll
make
a
clarifying
statement.
There's
there
definitely
was
a
very
budget-centric
part
of
that
conversation,
but
the
part
that
was
really
interesting
to
me
was
around.
You
know
use
of
native
plants
in
some
of
those
storm
water
catch
basins,
and
you
know
which
part
of
our
government
is
best
equipped
to
manage
that,
and
there
was
a
compelling
conversation
that
I
thought
kind
of
was
leading
towards
some
kind
of
shared
agreement
there,
but
I'm
not
necessarily
saying
that's
what
we
should
do
just
making
sure
that's
the
part
of
the
discussion.
K
So
much
for
coming
in
on
presenting
on
this
today,
I
I
feel,
like
I
learned
a
lot
from
from
you
about
all
of
the
work
that
we're
doing
on
this
on
stormwater
Management
in
our
city,
the
use
of
salt
and
the
impact
of
salt
pollution.
Salt
runoff
in
our
water
is
something
that
I
have
been
obsessed
with
since
I
was
16.,
I
did
a
lab
in
school.
K
That
talked
about
the
impact
of
runoff
on
our
like
the
deterioration
of
wetlands
and
downstream
pollution,
and
I
I
did
like
a
lot
of
reading
about
some
of
the
alternatives
to
Salt
usage.
K
North
Dakota
I
think
started
the
the
thing
with
beets
as
an
alternative
or
a
partial
replacement
for
industrial
assault
usage,
and
so
this
is
like
something
I
really
care
about.
Thank
you
for
presenting
on
it.
K
I
really
appreciated
the
the
piece
you
talked
about
with
with
public
access
to
our
our
salt
storage
facilities.
Where
you
know,
residents
can
come
and
access
that
too.
If
I
understood
that
correct
quickly
are
we
in
in
those
in
those
publicly
accessible
facilities?
Are
we
transitioning
to
sand
at
like
the
salt
facilities
or
what?
What
is
what
is
the
look,
what
do
we
give
out
there.
E
So
Mr,
chair
and
councilmember
chugtai
I
believe
we
actually
are
Distributing
sand
at
those
facilities,
not
salt.
The
salt
shed
that
you
saw
is
a
salt
shed
that
we
would
be
using
for
Mr
powman's
operation
on
our
plow
trucks
when
we
need
it,
and
so
there
are
cases
I
think.
E
If
you
remember
back
during
our
very
very
challenging
winter,
there
was
a
particular
set
of
days
and
it
happened
over
a
weekend
where
the
freeze
thaw
cycle
created
a
sheet
of
ice
all
across
the
city,
particularly
in
downtown
several
accidents,
and
one
of
the
things
is.
We
still
do
use
a
salt
mix
in
those
cases,
but
for
residents,
they're
actually
and
and
I
actually
have
I,
have
a
very
steep
grade.
E
Hill
near
my
home
and
there's
a
salt
there's
a
sand
Barrel
out
there
that
people
actually
can
get
out
of
their
car
and
put
in
the
intersection
and
and
down
the
street
on
their
own,
and
that's
the
sort
of
thing
that
we
distribute
is
actually
the
sand.
I
have
neighbors
who
go
and
get
that
sand
just
like
you
probably
do
too,
and
they
use
it
on
their
sidewalk.
Usually.
But
it's
not
it's
not
a
salt.
K
Got
it
that's
very
helpful,
thank
you
and
then
what
sort
of
and
I
think
this
might
be
a
question
for
the
the
director
as
well.
What
sort
of
access
to
or
investment
in
are
we
making
in
acquiring
like
the
necessary
amounts
of
the
alternatives
to
Industrial,
like
salt
usage.
E
So
Mr,
chair
and
councilmember
Chuck,
tying
committee
members
I
think
that
we
would
need
Mr,
powman's
team
to
give
us
a
better
read
on
in
terms
of
supply
and
how
much
we
did
not
have
a
shortage
this
year,
even
though
we
had
83
inches
of
snow,
but
that
can
always
that
can
be
a
challenge
we
usually
buy
ahead
of
time.
In
a
bulk
purchasing
agreement,
we
try
to
purchase
a
lot
of
our
products
ahead
of
the
Season.
E
There
can
be
shortages,
sometimes
the
shortages
come
about
because
actually
of
shipping
on
the
Mississippi,
when
barges
either
can't
get
up
the
Mississippi.
If
the
water
level
would
be
too
low,
or
there
would
be
another
issue
like
that
that
has
happened
in
the
past
I
think
I'm
very
interested
in
exploring
what
would
it
take
us
to
get
all
of
those
sand
facilities
up
to
standard
and
how
you
know?
What
would
that
take
in
a
few
future
budget
to
be
able
to
do
that
and
what?
E
What
medium
term
things
could
we
do,
because
the
biggest
thing
to
those
facilities
is
covering
them?
You
saw
that
the
little
bit
of
the
rip
there
in
the
in
the
fabric
that
was
covering
the
back
side
of
that
I
would
suspect
we
could
get
some
of
those
things
taken
care
of
much
more
quickly,
but
I
am
interested
like
you
are
to
learn.
You
know
both.
How
do
we
protect
the
resources
that
we
purchase
and
what
does
again,
it
gets
back
to
that
supply
chain.
E
A
You,
council,
member
I'm,
not
seeing
any
other
questions
for
our
presenter
at
this
time.
So
thank
you
very
much
for
the
presentation.
This
is
a
public
hearing,
so
I
am
going
to
open
this
up
for
the
public
and
see
if
we
have
anyone
signed
in
to
speak.
Thank
you,
sir.
A
Thank
you
I'm,
seeing
a
headshake,
no,
oh
and
now,
if
we
have
anyone,
that's
not
signed
up
but
is
interested
in
speaking,
please
come
on
up
and
you'll
have
two
minutes
introduce
yourself
and
then
afterwards,
please
see
our
clerk
to
officially
be
part
of
the
record.
Welcome
thank.
H
H
So
we
have
a
pretty
bad
problem
there.
Clearly,
almost
all
this
trash
comes
from
the
storm
drains,
so
storm
water,
Management's,
really
important,
1100
gallons
of
trash
was
collected
from
Hennepin
just
between
Franklin
and
28th
Street.
So
we
need
to
stop
that
trash
before
it
gets
into
the
storm
drains
and
the
plan
I
see
that
s
p
6.2
talks
about
street
sweeping
and
there's
a
quote
of
additional
Sweeping
in
high
priority
areas.
I'm
wondering
what
determines
the
high
priority
area
I
would
make
the
argument
that
Hennepin
is
a
high
priority
area.
H
I
saw
a
street
sweeping
map
a
while
back
that
reflected
that
Hennepin
was
not
a
Commercial
Street.
It
should
be
swept
every
week
if
possible.
That
would
be
a
a
quick
way
to
help
solve
this
problem
and
s
p
5.3
in
the
document
I
see
modifying
storm
sewers
and
Hennepin.
Reconstruction
is
a
great
opportunity
to
address
this.
H
So
there's
no
mention
of
this
in
the
plan,
but
there
are
storm
grates
that
are
designed
for
drains
to
waterway
that
prevent
trash
from
going
into
the
storm
drains
and
there's
other
devices
also
that
can
prevent
trash
from
going
down
the
storm
drains.
There's
also
a
category
six
of
out
Falls
maintenance.
I
was
happy
to
see
that
there
is
some
plant
trap,
trash
okay,.
A
Me
thank
you,
or
is
there
anyone
else
here
interested
in
speaking,
not
seeing
any
so
not
see
any
so
I
will
go
ahead
and
close
the
public
hearing
and
I
will
just
once
again
say.
Thank
you
so
much
Mr
masagi
for
the
presentation.
I
always
find
it
so
interesting
with
these,
because
I
learned
so
much
and
tons
about
salt.
A
This
time,
which
is
really
fascinating
material
and
also
about
the
change
in
the
Landscapes
and
all
of
that
Urban
versus
non-urban
and
so
I
think
it's
really
interesting
content
and
it's
great
to
come
away
and
learn
something
from
this
and
for
I.
Remember
the
public
Henry
who
spoke
I'd,
encourage
you
to
connect
up
with
staff
too,
if
you're
able
to
after
this
meeting
and
and
talk
about
some
of
the
things
you
are
seeing
and
some
of
the
different
possibilities
to
address
those.
A
You
know
there
was
a
really
great
presentation,
last
committee,
so
if
you're
able
to
jump
on
YouTube
and
check
that
out
as
well
staff
presented
around
Lake
Hiawatha
and
solutions
there
around
trying
to
improve
the
conditions
and
a
lot
the
different
possibilities
and
thoughts
that
went
into
it.
A
quick
turn
to
our
director
for.
E
Any
comments
or
questions,
thank
you.
Mr,
chair
and
committee
members
I
think
that
an
important
note,
Hennepin
actually
is
swept
once
a
week
right
now.
I
think.
Could
it
be
done
better?
Could
there
be
more?
You
know
some
sort
of
other
thing
that
we
do
with
that.
I
am
sure
we
can
work
on
that.
So
I
want
to
just
mention
that
Hennepin
is
one
of
the
streets
that
is
swept
frequently.
E
Lane
is
here
from
that
program,
which
I
think
is
a
very
effective
program
for
us
to
be
promoting
out
for
individuals
or
a
neighborhood
group,
or
even
a
block
to
take
on
you
know,
making
sure
that
a
drain
is
clean,
making
sure
that
if
there
is
debris
that
we
take
it
out
of
there-
and
you
know
we
really
do
need
the
Public's
help
it's
one
of
those
things
that
this
is
an
important
part
of
the
storm
water
management
is
our
own.
You
know
we
have
a
lot
of
things.
E
We
can
do
as
a
city
and
the
park
board
as
the
entities
who
largely
are
dealing
with
this
in
the
city,
but
I
think
also
having
individuals
who
you
know
really
take
on
that
interest
that
council
member
Chuck
Tai
talked
about
when
she
was
16
years
old.
This
is
a
great
activity
for
kids
to
be
involved
in
with
adults
to
be
able
to
take
on
that
that
adopt
a
storm
drain
function
too.
Absolutely.
A
Thank
you.
That's
that's.
Really
great
information
to
call
out
I
will
see.
I
will
go
ahead
and
move
approval
of
this
item
and
see
if
there
are
any
other
comments
or
questions
comes
from
our
Panama,
that's
just
up
from
before.
Okay,
perfect,
not
seeing
any
all
those
in
favor,
please
signify
by
saying
aye
aye,
those
opposed,
say,
nay,
and
that
motion
carries.
Thank
you
very
much.
We
will
now
move
on
to
our
first
discussion
item,
which
is
updating
Lane
use
fees
incurred
by
requests
for
obstruction
permits.
This
is
a
considering
a
resolution.
A
Updating
these
fees
and
this
item
was
postponed
from
our
last
meeting.
I
know
we
had
a
presentation
at
that
time
on
this,
so
this
item
is
back
before
us
and
before
the
council
takes
up
I'll
just
see
director
Anderson
Keller.
If
there's
anything
else
to
add
or
are
we
are
we
the
record
kind
of
complete
on
this
at
this
time?
Thank.
E
You
Mr
chair
I,
just
want
to
thank
all
the
council
members
who
worked
on
this
through
their
briefings
and
made
some
suggestions
that
I
think
improve
this
a
great
deal,
more
clarity,
the
inclusion
of
buses
as
bus
lanes
in
this,
as
well
as
the
amendment
that
councilmember
wansley
is
bringing
today
in
terms
of
our
reporting
back
and
having
a
presentation
in
April
of
2025.
So
I
just
want
to
thank
all
the
members
of
this
committee.
I
think
everyone
was
involved
in
this
in
some
way
and
Dylan
is
not
here
today.
E
J
To
also
share
some
comments
and
thank
our
staff
for
continuing
continuing
conversations
about
these
fees.
You
know
as
I
shared
last
time.
This
item
received
a
lot
of
attention
in
my
ward,
especially
in
neighborhoods
that
saw
significant
development
that
results
in
the
obstruction
of
sidewalks
and
bike.
J
Lanes
I
want
to
name
these
obstructions
literally
impact
the
day-to-day
lives
of
our
residents,
and
for
many
of
them
it's
a
major
safety
risk
for
them
to
have
to
reroute
their
way
of
travel
in
their
own
neighborhoods
and
I
also
have
named
in
the
past.
We've
had
a
lot
of
contact
by
big
developers
who
have
raised
a
lot
of
ruckus
around
the
increase
of
fees,
but
I
also
know
many
of
our
residents
feel
like
they're
too
low
and
do
not
reflect.
J
You
know
the
true
disruptive
experience
that
they
endure
when
these
obstructive
Dynamics
happen
so
I'm
very
glad
that
Public
Works
is
working
to
analyze
this
formula
more
thoroughly
and
I
hope.
You
know
these
additional
considerations
can
be
included
and
was
happy
to
see
the
Amendments
raised
in
this
resolution
to
reflect
that
again
highlighting
that
I
know
a
bulk
of
these
fees
come
from
downtown
I
want
to
also
just
emphasize
you
know.
J
For
instance,
in
my
ward,
there
is
significant
development
plan
for
Dinkytown
and
Prospect
Park
over
the
next
several
decades,
and
these
are
areas
where
thousands
of
my
residents
they
walk.
They
bike
they
use
transit
to
get
around
so
I
know
the
closure
of
bike
lanes
and
sidewalks
for
them
will
be
considerably
disruptive
and
I
want
to
make
sure
that
this
process
considered
those
experiences
that
my
constituents
have
made
very
clear
to
my
office.
J
So
I'm
super
excited
to
bring
you
know
this
amendment
forward
and
having
collaboration
with
our
public
work
staff
to
make
sure
that
we
are
doing
that
ongoing
evaluation
of
our
fees
and
making
sure
that
this
body,
as
a
result
of
that,
gets,
accomplish
apprehensive
understanding
of
how
these
fees
align
with
our
modal
priorities.
J
So
again,
just
wanted
to
say
thank
you
to
our
staff.
Thank
you
to
my
colleagues
who
also
had
conversations
around
how
we
could
strengthen
this
to
reflect
those
Dynamics
and
and
experiences
that
our
constituents
have
encountered
as
a
result
of
these
disruptions.
So
just
wanted
to
name
that.
A
Thank
you,
council
member.
So
unless
there's
any
objection,
I'll
just
have
the
the
clarify
that
the
motion
before
us
is
for
the
amended
resolution
that
you
all
have.
That
includes
council
member
ones.
These
Amendment
and
I
will
see
if
there's
any
further
discussion
or
comments
comes
from
our
Vita.
E
Thank
you,
Mr
chair
and
councilmember
Vita.
This
really
I
think
memorializes
that
we
will
be
reporting
back
and
doing
ongoing
analysis
as
we
would
have
been
doing.
I
mean
we
continue
to
analyze
this
program.
This
is
how
we
got
here
in
the
first
place,
but
I
think
this
idea,
because
you
heard
the
staff
say
when
they
made
the
presentation.
E
We
have
actually
accentuated
the
modal
priorities
in
this
new
hierarchy
further
than
they
were
before,
which
I
think
is
important,
so
putting
more
emphasis
on
priority
of
making
sure,
if
someone's
going
to
close
a
sidewalk
that
they're
going
to
pay
for
closing
that
sidewalk
and
they
want.
We
want
them
to
actually
do
that
as
little
as
possible.
We
also
our
staff
works
with
the
developer,
slash
construction
company
to
try
to
minimize
that
including
the
sidewalk
and
the
bike
lane.
E
They
are
the
two
most
prioritized
modal
priorities
in
this
hierarchy
and
making
sure
that
we
are
reporting
back
in
2025
should
give
us
enough
time
to
have
at
least
almost
two
years
of
data
to
be
able
to
look
at
again
and
I.
I
do
want
to
emphasize
that
if
someone
sees
something
that
is
obstructing
the
sidewalk
or
the
bike
lane,
where
it
had
appeared
that
there
should
have
been
a
clear
or
secondary
bike
lane
or
sidewalk,
they
should
be
reporting
that
to
3-1-1,
that
is
a
violation
likely
likely.
E
A
violation
of
the
permit,
not
always
but
is
could
be
a
violation,
and
we
want
to
be
able
to
investigate
that.
But
we
think
this
Amendment
from
the
public
works
standpoint.
We
did
work
with
our
city
attorney's
office,
so
did
council
member
wansley
to
make
sure
that
it
was
in
the
spirit
of
us
continuing
to
analyze
and
report
back.
A
Thank
you,
councilmember
any
other
comments
or
questions
on
this
item,
not
seeing
any
all
those
in
approval,
please
signify
by
saying
aye
aye
those
opposed,
say,
nay.
That
motion
carries
thank
you
to
my
colleagues
for
working
on
that
item
as
well.
We'll
now
move
on
to
our
next
discussion
item,
which
is
receiving
and
filing
the
Citywide
Street
lighting,
update
and
director.
Who
do
we
have
presenting
this
item
today.
E
M
Thank
you
good
afternoon
committee
chair
and
members
of
the
Public
Works
infrastructure
committee.
My
name
is
Joe
Lauren
and
I'm.
A
project
manager
with
public
works
I'm
here
to
present
to
you
a
city-wide,
Street
lighting
update,
multiple
city
council
actions
in
2022
and
2023
have
accelerated
support
for
Street
lighting
projects
and
maintenance
towards
City
street
lighting
goals.
These
projects
and
maintenance
actions
are
funded
by
the
American
Rescue
plan,
arpa
Public
Works
Capital
funds
and
Public
Works
General
funds.
M
Here's
a
brief
overview
of
the
Citywide
Street
lighting
system,
starting
with
the
city
system.
We
have
approximately
7
000
high
level
lights,
13
000
low-level
lights.
Other
names
include
decorative
ornamental
pedestrian,
as
shown
in
the
picture
on
the
right
for
about
twenty
thousand
lights,
total
of
the
city
system.
M
We
also
have
the
Excel
Energy
System,
and
this
is
only
maintained
by
Excel
Energy
16,
about
16
200,
roadway
lights,
6800
alley
lights
for
about
23,
000,
total
lights
example.
There
also
shown
in
the
photo
maintenance
of
these
systems
undergoes
a
separate
request
process.
So
the
City
of
Minneapolis,
Street,
Light,
maintenance
and
repair
requests
are
routed
through
the
3-1-1
system.
So
just
a
quick
snapshot
over
the
last
few
years
of
number
of
311
Repairs
by
year.
M
M
A
few
areas
of
these
improvements
are
the
American
Rescue
plan,
arpa
funding
for
311
backlog,
support,
LED,
conversions
on
cultural
corridors,
installations
of
city
street
lighting,
adjacent
to
three
different
schools:
strategic
underground
repairs
in
Steven,
Square,
Loring
Heights
in
2023
and
2024.
There
are
streetlight
Replacements
designated
for
over
500
lights,
with
a
direct
buried
wiring
system
in
multiple
neighborhoods
replacement
of
existing
poor
conditioned
City
light
poles
in
the
U
of
M
and
Dinkytown
area.
M
Third
area
is
LED,
light
bulb
Replacements
and
improvements
in
North,
Minneapolis
and
specific
specific
information
for
these
areas
of
improvement
will
be
highlighted
on
the
next
few
slides,
American
Rescue
plan,
arpa
status
updates
include
three-on-one
backlog
support
since
2022
we've
reduced
this
number
from
650
to
211..
This
is
an
approximately
a
67
percent
reduction.
M
M
Arpa
status
updates
continued.
We
have
the
LED
conversions
on
cultural
corridors.
The
picture
on
the
left
shows
Lake
Street.
There
are
96
fixtures
converted
that
project
is
complete.
So
now
the
LEDs
are
converted
from
Fifth
Avenue
South
to
17th
Avenue
South.
The
areas
shown
in
red
were
existing
LED
LED
lights
from
a
previous
pilot
LED
test,
and
then
the
blue
areas
shown
in
the
other
segments
are
the
arpa
conversions,
so
the
96
lights.
M
M
Here's
a
evening
photo
of
cultural
Corridor
conversion
on
Lake
Street
East.
This
a
specific
photograph
is
between
16th
Avenue
South
and
Bloomington
Avenue
South.
M
The
map
area
shown
on
the
left
is
Elizabeth
Hall
and
Franklin
Middle
School,
the
red
segment,
which
is
Aldrich
Avenue
North,
is
not
included
with
this
project
because
there's
existing
City
three
lights
there
today,
the
blue
segments
shown
are
the
proposed
project
for
installation
of
the
15-foot
City
standard
street
lights.
This
work
is
anticipated
to
start
in
June.

M
A
Thank
you,
Mr
Lauren.
We
really
appreciate
the
presentation
and
I
know
we
I
have
council
member
wansley
with
the
commoner
question,
but
first
I'm
just
going
to
turn
the
chair
over
to
council
memory.
Costa
I
got
a
family
funeral
event
to
go
to
awake,
so
thank
you.
J
Thank
You
by
shirakovski,
so
first
thank
you
to
our
staff
for
giving
this
presentation.
J
Many
of
folks
in
public
works
know
that,
like
it
feels
like
every
other
week
or
two
weeks,
we're
scheduling
meetings
with
different
contrades
of
my
neighbors,
with
Public
Works,
to
get
an
update
on
this.
So
it
feels
good
to
finally
have
this
presentation
come
forward
to
this
body,
so
everyone
can
hear
what
the
progress,
what
the
plan
is
around
getting
our
lights
fixed
and
improving
safety
conditions,
because
this
is
a
extension
of
having
safe
streets
all
across
our
city.
J
This
has
also
come
up
repeatedly,
and
this
was
included
in
the
presentation
of
seeing
you
know,
project
websites,
you
know
be
included
on
the
City
of
Minneapolis
website
for
the
projects
that's
going
to
be
rolling
out
in
2024
and
I've
shared
this
with
public
work.
Staff
of
you
know
our
constituents
would
love
instead
of
having
to
schedule
these,
like
you
know,
individual
meetings
with
staff
if
they
could
just
go
on
the
website
and
be
like.
Oh
okay.
This
is
when
Minds
is
happening
in
my
neighborhood.
J
So
could
you
share
if
there's
any
conversations
of
around
what
it
would
look
like
for
Public
Works,
to
have
a
project
website
that
shares
these
tentative
timelines
on
all
Street
lighting
updates
before
I?
Believe
it
I
think
you
you
share
that
they're
going
to
be
kind
of
rolled
out
continuously
in
the
future,
but
is
there
a
way
to
get
that
ahead
of
time
online.
M
Thank
you,
Vice
chair,
Caskey,
councilmember
wansley.
Probably
the
best
example
of
what
the
2024
streetlight
replacement
projects
website
would
look
like
would
be
to
look
at
the
2023
Street
replacement
project
website,
just
because
those
projects
are
further
along.
That
would
give
it
a
good
example
of
what
information
is
listed
at
the
project
web
page,
and
so
what
we
like
to
list
on
there
is
show
any
presentations
that
are
presented
to
the
public,
any
Maps
associated
with
the
projects.
M
Any
upcoming
meeting
dates
both
the
locations
where
they
are
physically
or,
if
there's
a
virtual
option,
which
often
there
is.
We
like
to
post,
frequently
asked
questions
and
then,
as
well
as
my
direct
contact
information,
if
people
have
more
more
detailed
or
specific
questions,
and
so
that
is
the
plan
on
how
we
would
kind
of
roll
that
information
into
the
to
the
website
to
be
fully
comprehensive
and
then
in
advance
of
the
work
being
done.
J
E
Chair
Koski
I
think
that
what
Mr
Laura
so
first
of
all,
this
presentation
is
a
public
presentation
so
being
able
to
take
those
couple
of
pages
that
you
saw
that
sort
of
predict
out
where
the
areas
will
be
in
2024
is
certainly
something
that
council
members
could
use
right
now
and
I
think
that
there
is
the
maybe
the
balance
between
the
detailed
project
page,
which
is
what
we
see
for
2023's
project
right
now
and
more
of
a
potential
One
landing
page.
E
E
J
Would
be
great
that
would
save
I
think
a
lot
of
us
time.
I
I
mean
meetings
are
great
I
love
my
constituents
I
get
paid
to
serve
my
constituents,
but
if
we
can
save
a
meeting
and
I
can
let
my
constituents
know
here's
a
web
page
that
has
that
repeatedly.
That
would
be
great.
L
A
question
yeah
Joe,
I
love,
it
love
it
Joe
in
my
family,
when
someone
gets
it
right,
we
say
they
understood
the
assignment.
You
understood
the
assignment
Joe.
You
got
this
light
thing
on
lock,
I
love
it.
It
has
been
truly
a
pleasure
for
the
entire
Ward
for
office
to
work
with
you
Betsy's
only
in
here,
because
you're
in
here
Joe.
She
may
have
a
question
afterwards,
I
don't
know,
but
when
she
saw
you
were
going
to
be
presenting,
she
had
to
come
say
hello.
So
thank
you.
So
much
for
all
you
do.
L
You
have
I
mean
there's
so
many
lights.
Just
in
my
ward,
there's
275
and
we
hear
a
lot
about
how
well
it's
going.
You
just
showed
Humboldt
Avenue,
I
I
mean
I
could
see
a
huge
difference
from
you
know
a
year
and
a
half
ago.
So
thank
you
so
much.
Thank
you
for
helping
out
Ward
4
in
the
north
side,
because
Broadway
is
looking
good
too.
Thank
you
and
Suzanne
Murphy
too
Excel
Energy.
Thank
you
Suzanne
director.
So.
E
Madam
chair,
thank
you.
I,
want
to
point
out.
I
was
going
to
point
out
Suzanne
and
her
colleague
in
the
audience
from
Excel,
because
it
is
a
partnership
on
lights
in
the
city
and
I
want
to
say
that
3-1-1
does
a
great
job
of
helping
people
usually
determined,
and
then
we
in
3-1-1
they
send
to
Excel
and
are
able
to
take
those
Excel
facilities
and
get
them
to
them
as
well.
E
I
I
also
just
want
to
say
this
is
a
moment
of
real
Pride
for
us
in
public
works
when
when
I
was
going
through,
my
nomination
process
I
think
there
were
even
over
650
lights
on
the
list,
and
it
was
one
of
the
things
that
I
think
I
committed
to
all
of
you
to
to
do
was
to
try
to
really
drive
that
number
down,
and
you
all
helped,
and
the
mayor
made
the
recommendations.
You
voted
on
those
recommendations
for
Budget.
It
makes
a
difference,
and
so
we
want
to
say
thank
you.
E
L
F
All
right,
thank
you.
Mr
Lauren
I
am
not
seeing
any
further
questions
so
without
objection,
I
direct
the
clerk
to
receive
and
file
this
report.
Thank
you
so
much
all
right.
Our
final
discussion
item
today
is
receiving
and
filing
an
update
on
the
legislative
director
for
a
high-level
analysis
of
potentials
of
a
potential
city-led
sidewalk
snow
and
ice
removal
program
director,
Anderson
Kelleher,
who
will
be
presenting
on
this
item
today.
Thank.
E
D
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
director,
absolutely
happy
to
be
here
today,
as
as
director
Keller,
Anderson
Keller,
who
said
my
name
is
Joe
palmen
and
I'm,
the
director
of
Transportation
maintenance
and
repair
and
I'm
here
today
to
present
an
update
on
the
progress
that
we've
made
on
the
legislative
directive
on
city
uh-led,
sidewalks,
no
and
Ice
removal.
D
Currently,
staff
is
working
on
the
preparation
of
a
report
and
presentation
to
be
delivered
to
this
committee.
At
the
June
8th
meeting,
the
work
has
been
a
collaborative
effort
with
a
core
group
of
staff
from
Public
Works,
Administration,
Transportation
maintenance
and
repair
and
Transportation
Planning
and
programming,
as
well
as
neighborhood
and
community
relations
and
information
technology.
D
In
addition
to
regularly
scheduled
core
team
meetings,
the
updated
schedule
includes
90
completion
of
a
draft
report
this
week.
Substantial
completion
of
the
report
and
a
draft
of
the
presentation
by
the
week
of
May
29th
with
the
presentation
of
the
final
report
at
the
June
8th
pwi
meeting
included
in
the
report,
will
be
an
executive
summary
that
provides
a
snapshot
of
all
sections
of
the
report.
D
Before
taking
a
look
at
what
potential
city-led
sidewalks
known
ice
removal
programs
could
Encompass.
The
report
will
provide
some
background
on
hit
on
the
history
of
events
that
has
brought
us
to
where
we
are
today,
including
the
2018
report
on
Municipal,
snow
and
ice
removal,
as
well
as
The
Pedestrian
and
Bicycle
Winter
maintenance
study.
D
D
Next,
the
report
will
provide
a
high-level
analysis
of
potential
city-led
options
for
sidewalks
known
ice
removal,
along
with
a
fiscal
analysis
of
those
options.
Also
included
are
scenarios
that
illustrate
how
a
phased
in
approach
could
look
beginning
with
The
Pedestrian
priority
Network
and
then
expanding
to
the
entire
network.
D
After
the
analysis
of
potential
city-led
options,
the
report
provides
some
recommendations
on
how
the
city
can
ensure
a
city-wide,
sidewalk,
plowing
and
snow
removal
program
is
equitably
implemented.
What
targeted,
snow
and
ice
removal
programs
could
look
like,
as
well
as
a
high
level
evaluation
of
a
potential
web-based
tool
that
tracks
our
winter
maintenance
activities.
D
D
We
recognize
that
this
is
important
work
and
we
want
to
make
sure
that
when
you
see
the
final
report
that
you
see
our
best
work
and
while
we're
at
90
percent
and
I
think
we're
up
to
a
40
page
report
at
this
time,
we're
not
quite
there
yet
with
all
the
details.
So
with
that
we'd
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
I
Thank
you.
Madam
chair
I
was
really
happy
to
see
NCR
listed
as
one
of
your
partners,
I
I'm,
working
on
a
separate
but
related
legislative
directive
just
around
future
funding
opportunities
for
neighborhood
associations
and
I
just
wanted
to
kind
of
put
a
pin
in
that.
As
you
know,
there's
I
think
tremendous
opportunity
in
how
we
partner
with
our
neighborhoods
around
particularly
some
of
the
issues
with
targeted
snow
removal
and
our
aging
communities,
because
I've
been
kind
of
pitching.
I
J
I'm,
just
reviewing
legislative
directive
that
was
passed
and
just
wanted
to
get
a
sense
of
the
intent
of
including
I
see
two
new
components
of
the
scope
of
work
of
level
of
service,
at
least
on
slide
four
and
then
a
background
and
also
winter
side.
Walk
maintenance,
study,
I
think
we
had
many
conversations
around.
That's
coming,
you
know
later
down
the
line
so
I
know.
J
We
didn't
include
that
in
the
legislative
director,
then
you
you
get
to
the
components
that
were
included
in
past
after
the
slide,
but
just
wanted
to
get
a
sense
of
the
intentionality
of
having
that
component
into
integrate.
In
this
report.
D
Chairkowski
and
and
council
member
wansley
I
want
to
make
sure
I
understand
the
question,
so
the
previous
winter
maintenance
study,
I,
think
is
included
in
you
know
the
history
of
what
has
gotten
us
to
where
we
are
today,
and
we
do
have
a
section
of
next
things
to
come,
which
is
a
winter
maintenance,
an
additional
winter
maintenance
study
coming.
J
I
just
wanted
granted
like
these
are
legislative
directives
is,
is
a
little
bit
interesting.
Just
the
framing
of
reports
always
thought
that
they
were
kind
of
like
strictly
responding
to
the
contents
of
the
legislative
directive,
which
is
reflected
here,
but
these
are
some
different
components
of
like
the
the
winter
maintenance
study.
Doesn't
look
in
here
like
something
of
moving
forward
as
like
a
recommendation
section,
it
seems
like
something
is
Standalone
and
I
was
always
under
the
understanding
that
analysis
is
ongoing
and
that
that
will
come
at
a
separate
time.
E
I
need
to
turn
on
my
mic.
Madam
chair,
councilman,
wansley
I
think
that
what
if
we
can
go
back
to
that
slide
here,
I
think
that
what
the
this
is
really
the
background
and
then
trying
to
include
portions
of
the
of
the
upcoming
winter
sidewalk
maintenance
study
that
are
relevant
to
this
analysis.
So
because
that
work
was
already
started.
There
are
portions
of
it
that
are
relevant
to
this
legislative
directive.
We
don't
want
to
divorce
that
work
from
each
other.
E
We
want
to
actually
include
that
work
where
it
is
applicable
to
inform
the
legislative
directive,
and
that
is
what
we're
doing
with
it.
The
other
issue
you
mentioned
is
level
of
service,
and
we
had
quite
a
debate
around
level
of
service
as
I.
Remember
it
when
the
legislative
directive
was
being
formulated,
and
so
if
we
go
to
that
slide,
we're
really
using
what
our
current
ordinance
is
as
level
of
service,
which
is
to
have
a
clear
sidewalk
within
24
hours
of
snowfall,
stopping
I
believe
and
in
commercial
quarters.
E
I
believe
it's
four
hours
four,
so
we
are
using
that
definition
of
level
of
service,
as
we
are
doing
the
analysis
that
the
team
is
doing
the
analysis
on
both
equipment
budget
phasing
all
of
those
things,
because
there
is
no
other
level
of
service
that
we
have
that
we
could
Peg
the
report
to
otherwise
we'd
be
sort
of
making
something
up,
and
we
did
not
want
to
do
that.
J
J
J
So
I
just
wanted
to
get
a
sense
of.
Is
that
what
you're
connecting
it
to
in
this
LD.
E
So
Madam,
chair
and
councilman
ronsley
I
think
the
actual
Assumption
of
level
of
service
is
Paramount
to
the
whole
report.
If
we
don't
have
sort
of
Peg
to
what
the
ordinance
is,
then
we
really
are
not
doing
the
work
you
ask
us
to
do
so.
I
would
say
it
actually
relates
to
every
portion
of
and
I'm
seeing
Cadence
shake
her
head
and
Mr
powman
shake
his
head.
So
I
think
that
this
is
key
to
being
able
to
present
accurate
information
to
you
in
the
legislative
directive.
J
Clarity,
it
we've
had
lots
of
conversations
in
our
legislative
department
just
around
alignment
with
our
LDS
and
then
the
information
that's
being
reported
and
why
I'm
glad
we're
having
updates
like
this
of
like
okay?
Are
we
staying
as
much
as
aligned
with
what
was
passed
and
asking
questions
around
that?
So
thank
you
for
providing
that
context.
F
Thank
you
so
much.
Thank
you.
Mr
Paulman
I'm
not
seeing
any
further
questions,
so
we
can
I,
don't
know
if
we
need
to
oh.
F
Receive
and
file
that
so
please,
clerks
I,
appreciate
that
with
that
we've
concluded
all
business
to
come
before
the
committee
and
without
objection,
We,
Stand,
adjourned.
