A
B
A
Six
members
present
let
the
record
reflect
that
we
do
have
a
quorum
with
that.
The
agenda
for
today's
meeting
is
before
us.
There
are
four
items
on
today's
consent
agenda
item.
One
is
accepting
a
grant
from
the
DWI
court
for
police
liaison
for
DWI,
defendant
monitoring.
Services
item
two
is
authorizing
contracts
with
neighborhood
organizations
qualifying
for
the
neighborhood's
2020
shared
resources
and
collaborations
fund
item.
A
Three
is
amending
Council
actions
related
to
contracts
with
the
partnership,
engagement
fund
and
item
four
is
accepting
a
grant
from
the
U
Care
Foundation
to
Pilot
on-site
substance,
use
disorder
groups
for
residents
in
six
Minneapolis
high-rises.
Is
there
any
discussion
on
these
items?
Councilmember.
C
Wansley,
thank
you,
chair
Vita
I,
just
want
to
speak
to
item
number
four,
which
is
the
Grant
from
the
U
Care
Foundation
for
substance.
Use
disorders
really
was
excited
to
see.
This
agenda
item
come
forward
to
our
committee.
It's
very
much
a
great
way
to
bring
both
mental
health
and
substance
use
disorder,
support
resources
directly
to
Residents.
C
Also,
you
know,
while
reducing
barriers
towards
access
to
these,
you
know
extremely
beneficial
services,
so
I
would
love
to
see.
Initiatives
like
this
be
expanded
and
would
love
to
work
with
staff
and
our
colleagues
and
figuring
out
Pathways
to
do
this,
because
this
is
such
a
greatly
needed
resource
in
our
city.
So
I
just
wanted
to
commit
staff
for
continuing
this
work.
D
Thank
you,
madam
chair
I'm,
wondering
if
someone
from
our
partnership
engagement
area
could
speak
to
how
do
we
measure
success
for
these
these
grants
that
we've
been
giving
are?
How
do
you
determine
success.
E
Good
afternoon
committee
members,
chair,
council
member,
so
each
piece
of
I
think
we'll
get
into
this.
We
got
into
a
little
bit
in
our
last
presentation
for
the
legislative
directive
for
success
for
those
contracts.
We
have
a
metrics.
If
you
will
how
many
people
are
engaged,
what
were
the
results
of
them
of
that
engagement?
How
do
they
connect
with
other
community
members
and
so
we're
working
out
some
more
metrics
with
that?
But
there's
also,
we
identified
how
many
people
are
engaged
per
the.
What
does
your
return
on
investment
in
those
dollars?
E
So
if
you
look
at
the
number
of
households
that
are
door
knocked
is
like
ten
to
one
when
we
look
at
other
contracts,
so
they're
engaging
more
people
through
that
work
and
also
in
events,
how
many
people
show
up
to
those
events
comparatively
to
other
contracts
that
we
have
and
we're
seeing
more
attendance
on
those
as
well
and
so
we're
collecting
those
numbers.
We'll
have
an
annual
report
that
will
come
out
at
the
first
of
the
year
that
will
deter,
show
all
of
the
activities
of
those
partnership,
engagement,
funds.
D
Thank
you,
Mr
Yonder.
You
know
it
would
be
a
lot
easier
when
we
do
our
budgeting.
If
we
had
that
report
sooner
than
later,
okay.
E
I,
chair
council
member
I'll
work
with
our
staff
to
get
you
some
of
the
numbers
as
soon
as
we
can
great.
A
You
and
seeing
no
further
discussion.
Oh
I'm,
sorry,
council,
member
wansley,.
C
Thank
you,
chair,
Vita,
I,
do
recall,
Steve
that
you
did
give
a
thorough
presentation
on
this.
It
might
be
helpful
to
reflect
fresh
council
members
memories
on
this.
If
you
could
forward
that
presentation
link
to
this
committee
as
well
as
the
report
that
you
gave
I
think
it
did
include
those
metrics
just
so
folks
can
get
a
refresher
on
information
that
you
did
present
prior
in
Prior
months.
So
just
wanted
to
let
folks
know
we
did
receive
this
information
and
if
you
could
send
a
follow-up
email
that'd
be
great.
Thank.
E
A
And
see
no
further
discussion.
I
will
move
approval
of
the
consent
agenda.
All
those
in
favor
signify
by
saying
aye
aye,
any
opposed,
nay
that
carries
in
the
consent
agenda
is
approved.
The
next
item
is
receiving
a
presentation
from
the
youth
Coordinating
Board
and
the
Minneapolis
youth
cabinet.
Youth
Center
work
in
Minneapolis
here
to
present
on
this
item
is
Deputy
Commissioner
of
Health
Heidi,
Ritchie
and
and
Degroot
executive
director
of
the
Minneapolis
youth
Coordinating
Board.
Welcome.
F
F
F
Don't
know
Karen's
title,
but
she
does
a
million
things,
including
Works
in
elections,
but
she's
been
helping
us
with
the
youth
cabinet
and
with
the
youth,
Coordinating
Board.
So
she's
been
really
important
to
this
work,
all
right,
youth
of
Minneapolis,
our
Equity
profile.
You
can
see.
The
picture
here
has
a
number
of
Statistics.
Our
total
population
of
Youth
in
the
City
of
Minneapolis
is
85
422,
which
is
20
of
the
population.
F
The
goals
of
the
presentation
are
to
clarify
for
the
city
council,
the
various
things
going
on
with
Children
and
Youth
and
how
they
are
related
to
each
other
relate
to
the
city
council.
The
concerns
that
you've
have
identified
as
their
top
priorities
and
worries
identify
the
ways
in
which
Council
can
support
you
through
events,
priority
issues
and
resource
Investments
and
then
to
lay
out
next
steps.
I
believe
you've
been
provided
a
one-pager
which
has
some
of
this
information
in
it.
If
not,
we
can
get
that
to
you
as
well.
F
I
also
wanted
to
acknowledge
some
of
the
work
that
other
departments
do
in
regards
to
our
youth
with
the
fire
department.
We
have
the
fire
explorers
program.
We've
got
a
partnership
with
social
studies,
teachers
in
our
elections,
Department
cped
we've
got
Step
Up
civil
rights,
Urban
Scholars,
the
health
department.
We've
talked
a
little
bit
about,
but
we've
got
our
Maternal
Child,
adolescent
health
and
then
our
green
careers,
Pathways
and
then
neighborhood
safety.
F
We've
got
the
youth
group,
violence,
intervention,
inspiring
Youth
and
our
youth
violence
prevention
program
area
and
for
police
we've
got
our
new
youth,
Outreach
efforts,
the
pals
program
and
additional
Pathways.
That's
not
an
exhaustive
list.
It's
just
a
few
that
I
wanted
to
call
out
to
show
how
a
lot
of
the
youth
stuff
lives
in
many
departments
and
there's
not
really
a
centralized
location
for
the
work
which
brings
us
to
a
couple
to
the
youth
centered
work
in
Minneapolis,
focusing
on
cfci.
F
Cfci
stands
for
the
child-friendly
cities
initiative.
This
initiative
is
a
UNICEF
USA
and
it
brings
together
local
stakeholders
to
establish
a
safer,
more
just
Equitable,
inclusive
and
child
responsive,
City
and
communities
around
the
world.
We
have
a
local
action
plan
as
we
are
a
candidate
in
seeking
designation
as
a
child-friendly
city.
F
Our
local
action
plan
includes
Emergency
Management
and
preparedness,
youth
voice
and
decision
making,
Community
safety
and
child
rights,
education
and
awareness
in
terms
of
a
timeline
in
February
of
2020
mayor
Frye
signed
the
mou
with
UNICEF
USA
to
become
a
cfci
pilot
City
in
August
of
2020
UNICEF
USA
launched
the
cfci
U.S
and
Minneapolis
was
one
of
six
pilot
cities
in
November
of
2021
mayor
fry
declared,
November
20th,
the
world
Youth
and
children
Rights
Day
in
Minneapolis
in
the
fall
of
2022,
we
completed
our
local
action
plan
in
February
of
2023.
F
We
had
a
big
kickoff
chair
Vita
was
there
as
well
as
the
mayor
and
others
where
we,
where
we
were
recognized
by
UNICEF
as
a
candidate
City
in
the
fall
of
2023.
We
are
planning
on
convening
with
partners
and
UNICEF
USA
staff
and
then
in
February
of
next
year,
2024
the
local
action
plan
and
evaluation
should
be
completed
and
we
anticipate
receiving
full
cfci
recognition.
F
Are
you
centered
work
that
we
do
with
with
the
youth
cabinet?
We
have
a
couple
different
things
there.
The
vision
and
the
purpose
of
the
youth
cabinet
is
that
the
city
will
be
a
national
model
where
all
youth
can
flourish,
reach
their
potential
and
become
long-term
contributing
residents.
The
youth
cabinet
was
started
in
the
coordinator's
office
way
back
under
Stephen
bosacker.
The
youth
cabinet
is
where
the
Enterprise
learns
together
coordinates
with
each
other
to
align
our
work,
uses
our
Collective
influence
and
invest
in
specific
strategies
to
reach
the
city's
goals.
F
The
youth
cabinet
is
a
mayoral
cabinet
made
up
of
department,
heads
and
staff
over
the
last
year
or
two
the
number
of
changes
around
the
city.
The
level
of
participation
has
varied
from
department
head
participation
to
no
departmental
participation.
Of
course,
that
has
a
lot
to
do
with
the
pandemic
and
some
other
things
that
have
been
going
on
in
the
city
over
the
next
year.
F
Co-Chairs
myself
and
Karen
Moe
will
be
working
with
you
to
make
sure
we
have
good
representation
in
all
departments,
as
well
as
with
the
department
heads
the
youth
cabinet
tracks,
all
of
the
city's
program
that
impact
or
prioritize
young
people,
or
to
identify
gaps
in
service
for
young
people,
coordinating
with
the
youth,
Coordinating,
Board
and
working
to
identify
Investments
made
in
young
people
as
well
as
those
gaps
while
All
City
departments
and
offices
can
and
should
prioritize
young
people.
F
The
youth
cabinet
can
be
a
resource
for
all
departments
or
programs
that
want
to
prioritize
young
people.
One
of
the
events
that
we
have
coming
up,
which
we
hope
will
get
participation
from
you
all-
is
youth
day
at
City
Hall.
So
through
our
elections,
department
and
the
partnership
I
mentioned
earlier,
we're
leveraging
our
relationships
with
the
Minneapolis
public
schools,
social,
social
studies,
teachers
to
hone
in
on
a
date
that
will
work
best
for
the
teachers
and
students,
so
stay
tuned
for
that
date
and
more
information.
F
In
addition,
we
are
working
with
I.T
to
see
about
developing
a
website
where
we
can
house
all
of
the
city's
youth,
Investments
and
activities,
as
I
mentioned.
There's
really
no
Department
that
owns
this
work,
and
so
the
youth
cabinet
is
the
entity
that
is
this
centralized
kind
of
repository
and
Collective
Collective
community
of
those
that
work
at
the
city
that
is
are
working
on
youth
investment
activities.
F
I
talked
about
cfci
a
little
bit
earlier
and
I
mentioned
some
of
the
the
well
the
image
on
the
on
the
right.
We
are
currently
implementing
the
okay.
Sorry,
the
image
on
the
right
is
the
cfci
candidate,
City
kickoff
in
February
that
I
mentioned
earlier.
So
you
can
see.
Suray
who
used
to
be
the
co-chair
is
up
there
with
Karen
Moe.
F
We
had
the
mayor
there
and
we
had
the
president
of
Unicef
USA,
who
just
happens
to
live
in
Minnesota,
so
we
have
a
little
bit
of
an
in
with
him
and
then
on
the
left.
This
is
the
process
for
the
city
to
become
a
child-friendly
city
and
we're
currently
implementing
that
local
action
plan
that
I
mentioned
earlier,
as
well
as
monitoring
and
evaluating
the
progress
that
we're
making
on
that
local
action
plan.
F
Well,
this
is
not
going
to
work,
but
this
is
a
video
that
we
have
from
our
cfci
event.
It's
a
Minneapolis
youth
congress,
video
and
it's
just
a
couple
of
our
youth
congress,
members
speaking
about
what
it
means
to
be
on
the
youth
congress
and
to
have
a
voice
as
a
youth.
F
G
Thank
you
Heidi
good
afternoon,
council
members,
chairperson
and
members
of
the
committee,
it's
good
to
be
here
with
you
today.
The
last
photo
I
just
wanted
to
point
out
that
one
of
those
young
women
is
here
ridwan
who
is
sitting
right
there.
B
G
G
Many
of
you
know
the
Minneapolis
youth
Coordinating
Board,
we've
been
around
since
1985,
where
the
the
oldest
intergovernmental
organization
in
the
United
States
that
advocates
for
children
and
young
people
we're
a
joint
Powers
body
that
brings
together
the
City
of
Minneapolis
Hennepin
County,
the
Minneapolis
Park
and
Recreation
board,
and
the
Minneapolis
Public
School
Board.
G
We
really
are
here
to
help
coordinate
activities
between
those
four
entities
on
behalf
of
children
and
young
people.
We
do
policy
development,
we
coordinate
a
lot
of
times.
We
coordinate
the
adults
working
with
children
and
young
people
and
we
try
to
do
Collective
action
between
our
four
different
jurisdictions
and
bodies.
G
We
had
the
opportunity
a
few
years
ago
to
be
able
to
redistribute
some
arpa
funding,
a
million
dollars
worth
of
funds
to
four
different
organizations
in
the
Twin
Cities
to
help
them
work
with
young
people
through
some
after-school
funding,
and
we
also
did
some
this
year
on
some,
we
redistributed
fifty
thousand
dollars
to
do
some
summer
funding
and
very
happy
to
do
that
and
we're
very
successful.
Some
threesome
programs
received
funding
because
of
that
we
established
about
five
years
ago
a
youth
master
plan
which
you
can
find
on
our
website.
G
We
usually
have
somewhere
between
30
and
50
young
people.
In
our
group
we
pay
them,
we
make
sure
they
get
fed,
we
make
sure
they
get
safely
transported
back
and
forth
and
we
train
them
to
help
work
with
us.
They
have
been
an
incredibly
helpful
group
of
young
people
and
a
great
deal
of
the
work
that
we
do
and
I
think
I
need
to
go
to
their
page
right.
G
There
and
ridwan
has
been
one
of
our
members,
but
we
have
a
number
of
our
young
people
have
gone
on
to
do
great
things
in
our
city
and
the
youth
congress
is
a
group
that
we
use
a
lot
with
a
number
of
the
projects
that
you've
seen
the
child-friendly
cities,
Initiative
for
example,
and
others.
G
So
I
will
you'll
see
this
later,
but
I
will
say:
please
come
to
the
swearing-in
ceremony
in
early
November,
where
young
people
come
and
the
presiding
judge
of
juvenile
court
comes
and
the
young
people
raise
their
hands
and
they
take
an
oath
of
office
and
they
serve
with
us
until
the
end
of
the
school
year.
So
please
join
us.
We
are
also
recruiting
right
now.
So,
if
you
know
of
any
young
people
in
those
grades
who
might
want
to
have
an
activity
in
which
they
learn
about
Civic
government,
please
ask
them
to
come.
G
This
is
a
chart
that
talks
about
some
of
the
youth-centered
work
in
Minneapolis.
You
can
see
the
ycb
at
the
top,
our
four
jurisdictions,
the
four
areas
that
we
work
in.
We
really
work
in.
We
really
have
kind
of
three
lines
of
business:
Early
Childhood
after
school
and
Youth
Development
Our,
Youth
Development
work
includes,
as
you
can
see,
on
the
left
there,
the
Minneapolis
youth
congress
and
the
Outreach
team
that
we
support,
and
then
you
can
see
some
of
the
common
values
and
projects
that
we
all
share.
G
The
youth
cabinets
there
on
the
right
child
friendly
cities
there
on
the
left
and
then
the
different
things
that
the
City
of
Minneapolis
does-
and
this
is
hopefully
a
helpful
kind
of
cheat
sheet
for
you
to
know
about
what
the
different
Investments
are
for.
Children
and
youth
in
the
City
of
Minneapolis.
G
I
often
get
asked
what
do
young
people
say?
What
are
they
interested
in?
What
are
the
things
they're
concerned
about
and
they're
concerned
about,
honestly
anything
and
everything,
but
the
top
things
that
come
through
are
these
young
people
are
concerned
about
mental
health,
particularly
mental
health
of
themselves
and
their
peers?
G
They
know
that
things
need
more
attention
and
they
know
that
they
need
more
resources,
so
their
own
mental
health
is
of
a
concern
to
them.
The
youth
Coordinating
Board
has
been
involved
in
doing
some
training
of
Youth
Work
professionals
around
mental
health
first
aid,
and
that
we
hope
will
be
helpful
for
our
young
people.
G
So
those
are
some
of
the
things
that
our
young
people
are
saying
and
it
sounds
like
we
can't
hear
from
them
directly,
but
we
can
send
you
these
tapes
to
hear
from
from
our
young
people
about
the
areas
that
they're
concerned
directly
so
and
I
think
I'm
sending
you
back
to
Heidi.
F
Thank
you,
Anne
all
right,
so
we're
nearing
the
end.
We
wanted
to
sort
of
wrap
up
with
some
opportunities
that
you
can
all
engage
in
for
supporting
our
youth,
including
supporting
the
youth
cabinet
work
that
we
have
here
at
the
city.
A
couple
things
with
that
is
Youth
Theater
City
Hall,
which
I
mentioned
earlier
and
I'll
get
a
date
to
you
all.
When
we
have
that
and
then
just
the
budget,
we
don't
have
a
budget
as
a
youth
cabinet
and
so
some
of
the
activities
that
we
want
to
coordinate
things
like
youth
at
City
Hall.
F
We
were
able
to
put
a
little
bit
of
money
from
some
charitable
charitable
gambling
proceeds
to
help
us
pull
off
a
youth
theater
at
City
Hall
this
year,
but
just
an
eye
toward
what
what,
whenever
you're
looking
at
budgetary
items
just
thinking
about
what
does
this
mean
for
youth?
Obviously,
youth
don't
have
a
a
real
seat
at
the
table
because
they're
under
18,
they
can't
serve
an
elected
office,
but
just
having
that
lens
and
then
so.
F
Yeah
centering
Our
Youth
and
conversations
on
the
priority
issues
that
that
Ann
mentioned
mental
health
safety,
substance
use
and
climate
change
and
understanding
that
these
issues
are
things
that
our
youth
are
concerned
about
and,
and
they
want
to
see
their
voice
represented
in
conversations
where
these
topics
come
up.
F
Let's
see,
I
think
that's
it.
On
that.
Our
next
steps.
We
will
be
undertaking
the
preparations
for
the
Youth
day
at
City
Hall.
We
will
continue
to
track
and
monitor
the
city's
youth
Investments
we've
collected
information
from
all
of
the
departments
on
their
youth
investment
and
youth
related
activities.
We
hope,
like
I,
said
earlier
to
have
a
website
where
the
information
and
also
resources
for
youth
can
live
in
a
central
location
with
the
city.
F
We
are
again
moving
toward
our
official
cfci
designation
and
hope
to
have
that
early
in
2024
and
then,
as
Ann
mentioned,
joining
the
2020
324
youth
congress
class
at
their
oath
of
office
in
early
November
and
I'm.
Sure
Anne
will
send
details
of
that
when
she
has
them
that
wraps
up
our
presentation
and
we
can
all
stand
for
questions.
Thank
you.
Council,
chair,
Vita
and
council
members.
A
C
You
chair,
Vita,
director
Richie
interested
in
especially
scheduling
of
these
presentations,
and
maybe
you
might
can
be
helpful
in
this
too,
and
getting
a
sense
of
when
we
could
have
the
youth
congress
themselves
come
before
this
body
and
have
students
or
you've
talk
about
some
of
the
policy
parameters
that
you
laid
out
like
what
they're
interested
in
seeing
happen
around
substance,
abuse
being
able
to
directly
communicate
with
them
and
have
them
in
this
space
I
know
summer
is
when
students
are
out
I,
know.
C
G
Council,
member
thanks,
that's
a
great
question:
we'd
love
to
have
the
young
people
come.
They
have
been
at
city
council
before
and
they're
always
a
hit.
I
love
to
have
them
come
and
speak
with
you.
They
are
being
recruited
right
now.
They
start
their
training
in
October,
they're
sworn
in
November
and
so
I
would
say
a
good
time
to
start
seeing
them
might
be.
G
January
February,
March
timeline
and
I
will
speak
with
them
about
coming
sometime
this
winter
spring,
about
coming
to
see
you
and
talk
about
the
things
that
are
important
to
them
and
some
of
the
things
that
they're
interested
in
hearing
more
about.
But,
yes,
we
can
make
those
arrangements
and.
G
They
they
will
be
approved
more
like
in
October.
They
start
meeting
in
mid-october,
but
but
we
actually
do
a
big
ceremonial
swearing-in,
which
is
a
lot
of
fun.
I
hope
you
can
come.
C
Yeah
I
would
say
also
something
especially
since
you
mentioned
the
budget
piece,
and
this
is
something
our
office
worked
with
students,
because
I
believe
my
award
has
the
highest
density
of
students,
at
least
between
18,
to
24
out
of
all
of
the
the
wards.
But
we
worked
very
closely
with
the
University
of
Minnesota
and
a
number
of
student
groups
that
have
them
participate
in
the
budget
process.
C
There's
a
really
clear
clear
way,
especially
since
budget
meetings
are
happening
in
the
evening,
where
students
can
talk
about
the
ways
in
which
they
would
like
to
see
these
priorities
be
supported,
especially
as
you
mentioned.
If
there's
infrastructure
needs
around
additional
operating
dollars,
there's
another
direct
opportunity
to
talk
about
the
work
that
they've
been
able
to
do
inviting
past
Alum
and
to
have
council
members
here
Direct
from
them.
You
know
where
we
can
put
our
money
where
our
mouth
is.
C
So,
knowing
that
that's
happening
right
in
the
Square
or
beginning
of
the
budget,
you
know
season
is
a
really
good
opportunity
to
activate
Youth
and
one
of
the
most
critical
roles
that
we
have
as
city
council
members
and
holding
the
purse
of
this
city
so
something
to
share
to
and
would
more
than
welcome.
You
know
collaboration
around
that
of
meeting
with
youth
who
are
involved
with
ycb
to
really
Advance
budget
discussions.
D
Thank
you,
chair
I,
I'm,
curious.
What
you
can
tell
me
about
the
the
what
the
youth,
what
we
can
learn
from
the
youth
about
substance
abuse,
how
it
impacts
them.
Is
this
you
know
their
them
personally,
their
families,
the
neighborhoods.
Can
you
give
me
a
preview.
G
Yeah,
council
member,
thank
you
for
the
question.
I
think
that
we
can
learn
a
number
of
different
things
from
them.
We
can
learn
about
what
they
know
about
what
is
happening
in
their
peer
group
about
the
use
of
substance
abuse.
They
can
tell
you
about
that,
and
the
other
thing
that
is
coming
up
a
little
bit.
I,
don't
want
us
to
preview
this
too
much
because
she'll
be
getting
a
report,
but
they
can
also
tell
you
the
effect
of
other
people's
substance
use
on
their
safety
and
that's.
D
G
The
safety
of
the
youth
so
as
they're
waiting
for
a
bus
to
go
to
school
someone
who's
using,
can
risk
their
safety
or
make
them
afraid.
What
is
that
like
for
them
being
on
a
on
a
street
and
have
somebody
who's,
drunk
or
or
using
kind
of
being
out
there
and
and
being
creating
an
unsafe
environment
for
them?
So
they
can
talk
about
it
from
that
perspective
as
well,
but
so
from
kind
of
both
perspectives.
A
A
I've
had
opportunities
to
talk
to
the
young
people
of
the
youth,
Coordinating
Board
and
what
you
presented
to
us
aligns
with
exactly
what
they've
said
to
me
directly,
especially
around
the
substance,
abuse
safety,
climate
change
and
so
I'm.
Happy
to
see
that
I'm
happy
to
see
that
here
today,
because
that's
exactly
what
I
heard
and
I
think
you're
right
that
we
need
to
make
sure
we
create
opportunities
for
them
to
actually
have
a
seat
at
the
table
and
not
just
say
we
want
them
to.
A
You
all:
have
access
to
some
very
powerful
young
people
and
they
know
what
they
want.
They
know
how
they
want
to
be
represented
in
the
city.
They
understand
that
government
should
work
for
them,
so
I
applaud
you
on
representing
them
today
and
their
voices
and
the
young
people
who
are
here
with
us
today.
Thank
you.
So
much
for
being
here,
I
I
just
saw
my
two
nephews
walk
in
one.
A
The
five-year-old
text
me
and
said:
do
you
want
to
visit
and
he's
here
today
and
so
I
want
them
to
feel
like
they
have
a
voice
at
the
City
of
Minneapolis
too.
So,
thank
you
so
much
thank.
F
A
You
and
I'll
direct
the
clerk
to
receive
and
file
this
presentation
and,
as
I
said,
my
nephews
are
here:
jaishan
and
Juwan
Vang
Vito
just
stopped
by
to
visit
really
quick.
Thank
you,
nephews,
they're,
so
adorable
we're
going
to
move
on
to
the
next
presentation.
The
next
item
is
receiving
an
update
related
to
a
legislative
directive
concerning
finance
and
allocations
of
neighborhood
programming.
Here
to
present
on
this
item
is
Stephen
Gallagher
from
neighborhood
community
relations,
welcome,
Mr,
Gallagher
and
I
know.
E
Afternoon
committee
members
council
members
I
appreciate
the
invitation
back.
This
is
the
second
second
piece
of
the
legislative
directive
that
was
passed
back
in
the
the
budget
piece.
If
you
remember
it
was
a
receiving
file.
E
2022A0828,
the
legislative
directive
identified
different
areas
that
would
like
to
be
covered.
This
is
the
financial
aspect
of
the
of
the
legislative
directive
and
we
came
back
after
the
mayor
released
his
proposed
budget
in
case
there
was
any
questions
as
it
related
to
that,
and
if
we
look
at
the
this
was
a
programmatic
and
budgetary
Analysis
and
NCR
was
guided
to
conduct
this
internal
review
and
to
provide
recommendations
for
consideration.
E
This
legislative
directive
had
a
lot
of
aspects
to
it
in
order
to
research
the
basis
for
the
legislative
directive.
Again,
we
we
distilled
this
down
into
multiple
parts
and
before
I
get
started.
I
do
want
to
really
thank.
There
was
about
25
City
staff
department,
heads
staff
members
and
then
also
in
other
governmental
entities.
When
we
looked
at
Hennepin
County
the
park
board
School
Board,
we
all
kind
of
got
together
and
worked
on
potential,
Solutions
or
potential
ways
that
we
could
work
together
even
further.
E
So
when
we,
when
we
look
at
this
legislative
directive,
it
doesn't
really
show
the
background
information
that
was
done
with
all
of
the
other
partners
and
I
just
want
to
acknowledge
that
we
appreciate
them
working
with
us
when
it
comes
to
working
with
neighborhood
organizations,
and
another
piece
was
to
to
to
look
at
the
budget
aspect
about
what
kind
of
recommendations
or
analysis
of
the
different
funding
mechanisms
that
could
be
implemented
in
2024
and
then,
lastly,
is
the
cost
analysis
of
the
neighborhood
Network
fund
and
then
what
kind
of
costs
and
pieces
can
be
split
between
the
neighborhood
Network
fund
and
the
echo
engagement
fund
and
we'll
get
more
into
these
pieces
here
in
a
second
I
would
like
to
bring
you
to
the
typical
cost
of
a
neighborhood
organization,
and
when
we
did
these
different
pieces,
we
conducted
research
through
one-on-one
interviews
with
neighborhoods
reviewing
990s
with
the
IRS
State
Attorney
General
reports,
Secretary
of
State's
data.
E
Additionally,
we
gleaned
information
from
our
the
annual
reports
that
neighborhoods
send
to
us,
and
what
we've
come
up
with
is
once
you've
seen
one
neighborhood
you've
seen
one
neighborhood,
there's
different
neighborhoods
rely
on
different
priorities
within
their
with
their
own
operations.
We
have
some
that
are
all
volunteer
run
and
they
put
all
of
their
money
into
the
community
into
Partnerships.
We
have
other
neighborhood
organizations
that
really
see
a
value
in
having
dedicated
staff
that
are
working
within
their
neighborhood.
So
this
was
a
tough
one.
E
When
we
looked
at
the
typical
costs,
we
outlined
all
of
the
all
of
the
mandatory
pieces
that
every
non-profit
in
the
state
of
Minnesota
has
to
comply
with.
Those
are
like
the
Attorney
General's
reporting,
auditing
board
meetings,
general
liability
insurance
and
there's
a
huge
range
here
between
four
thousand
eighty
five
dollars
for
just
organizations
that
do
that
have
all
of
volunteer
staff,
members
or
all
volunteers
compared
to
around
fifteen
thousand
for
more
of
a
robust
organization.
Now
this
does
not
include
staff.
E
That's
it's
kind
of
the
the
different
factor
in
here
about
different
neighborhoods
have
different
Staffing
requirements.
So
I
just
wanted
to
point
that
out.
E
And
then
we
talk
about
the
requirements
for
the
city
and
the
in
the
legislative
directive.
It
talked
about
a
lot
of
requirements
for
the
city
that
we
we
asked
neighborhoods
to
to
to
to
to
conduct.
E
E
We
require
three
additional
pieces
and
that's
board
term
limits
to
make
sure
that
there's
an
influx
of
of
new
folks
and
engaging
new
members,
a
fundraising
plan
that
we
asked
neighborhood
organizations
to
submit
to
NCR
and
those
could
be
a
plan
of
how
to
gain
more
money
through
through
fees
for
service,
through
contracts
with
different
entities
or
or
or
or,
and
then
some
just
say
that
they
will
only
operate
under
the
amount
of
money
that
the
City
of
Minneapolis
comes
with.
E
Currently,
all
neighborhood
organizations
are
in
compliance
with
our
neighbors
2020,
except
for
one
there's,
one
neighborhood
organizations
for
the
where
the
organization,
the
board
kind
of
just
went
away
and
they're
working
with
NCR,
with
a
single
individual,
to
try
to
prop
that
neighborhood
back
up
to
have
a
neighborhood
organization,
we're
hoping
by
October
November
by
the
end
of
the
year
that
we'll
be
able
to
help
that
neighborhood
start
up
a
new
neighborhood
organization.
So
we'll
have
complete
coverage
throughout
the
city.
E
Let
me
go
to
the
next
one,
so
the
funding
so
neighborhood
neighborhood
programs
over
the
years
have
had
various
funding
programs
or
methods
from
the
city
to
administer.
These
programs,
including
general
fund
non-city
direct
allocations
and
meaning
with
that
is
the
county,
might
contract
with
Harrison
neighborhood
around
the
blue
line,
and
so
they
have
non-city
direct
allocations
for
contracts,
Consolidated
Tiff,
which
we
call
the
NRP.
E
As
you
remember
the
sunset
back
in
2001
after
a
20-year
program,
and
then
we
started
up
a
another
Consolidated
Tiff
if
you
will-
and
that
was
back
with
rt
Ryback
was
the
mayor
worth
where
we
took
50
of
the
Tiff
District
area
and
we
certified
at
50
50
and
then
50
of
that
was
to
go
to
the
Target
Center
debt
and
the
other
half
were
to
go
to
Neighborhood
organizations.
Well,
that
sunset
here
in
I
would
leave.
E
It
was
2019,
and
so
that's
where
at
right
now
I,
you
know
I'll
say
that
some
neighborhoods
who,
when
looking
at
the
funds
for
funds
for
service
models,
some
neighborhoods,
will
have
an
opportunity
for
more
work,
depending
on
where
the
city
here,
as
well
as
our
other
funding
Partners
the
county
park
board
School
Board,
where
they
invest
their
resources.
So
it
might
be
in
a
specific
areas
within
the
City
of
Minneapolis
and
it
won't
be
even
or
or
spread
out
within
all
of
the
organizations.
E
However,
it
it
it
we
look
at
if
there
was
more
funding
for
neighborhood
organizations,
would
they
be
able
to
also
then
access
more
funding
outside
of
the
city
if
they
had
the
capacity?
And
so
if
that
makes
sense.
So
if
we
invest
into
let's
say
Staffing
is
that
staff
able
to
look
at
other
funding
mechanisms
for
their
own
organizations
or
for
the
board?
E
We
have
started
some
some
discussions
with
other
funders
around
the
city
and
I'll
give
an
example
as
the
The
Good
Neighborhood,
Award
or
Good
Neighbor
fund,
which
is
around
the
the
stadium.
They
actually
copied
our
Echo
engagement
program
to
so
they're
they're.
E
And
then,
lastly,
I
talked
about
just
everything
that
we're
doing
is
is
based
within
the
Equitable
Equity
focus
both
and
our
program
guidelines
and
our
allocation,
our
application
methods
and
then
our
expectations
from
neighborhoods,
with
our
Equitable
engagement,
fund
or
program.
If
you
will
so
when
those
come
in
we'd
really
tell
you
to
take
a
look
at
who's
historically
been
underrepresented
in
both
neighborhoods
and
within
city
government.
And
how
can
we
engage
those
communities
together
to
to
to
Really
strengthen
both
neighborhood
organizations
and
the
city?
E
I
I
feel
like
the
relationship
that
neighborhoods
have
with
their
residents
and
with
their
Community,
really
reflects
back
into
the
City
and
how
we're
able
to
as
a
city,
access
that
human
capital
within
neighborhood
organizations
back
into
our
operations
and
then
I
would
just
go
into
a
summary
of
actions
here.
So
we
we
request.
We
will
be
requesting
the
the
NRP
policy
board
to
remove
the
70
housing
expenditure
policy
that
will
come,
probably
in
February
or
March.
E
But
first,
what
we'll
have
to
do
is
work
with
the
city,
clerk
and
city
attorney's
office
to
update
the
NRP
city
ordinance,
which
will
show
an
election
procedure
which
also
have
districts
which
are
the
same
as
the
park
board
and
School
Board
districts
with
two
two
at
large
folks.
That's
been
through
kind
of
a
lengthy
process
and
one
of
your
account
or
one
of
your
colleagues
will
be
sponsoring
the
ordinance
change
soon
and
that'll
kick
off
the
two-month
process.
E
We've
also
connected
with
internal
igr
internal
government
relations
to
look
at
allowing
the
state
or
having
the
state
legislature
allow
for
public
officials
to
designate
a
representative
on
the
NRP
policy
board.
Currently
the
only
member
of
the
policy
board
that
is
able
to
designate
a
designate
someone
as
the
mayor's
office,
so
all
of
the
other
elected
officials
have
to
be
in
attendance
in
order
to
have
a
quorum,
and
sometimes
that
could
be
hard
to
do
so.
E
We
asked
for
a
modification
with
that
and
then
lastly
We'll
be
asking
the
policy
board
to
appoint
four
neighborhood
Representatives
until
which
time
the
election
can
occur,
which
will
happen
after
the
NRP
ordinance
is
updated
and
so
we're
expecting.
That
would
be
February
17th
at
the
community
connections
conference
where
that
will
occur,
and
that's
what
I
have
and
I
stand
for
questions
I'm
sure
there
will
be
quite
a
few.
Thank
you
all
thank.
H
You
madam
chair
yeah,
I,
saw
on
the
mayor's
recommended
budget
an
increase
of
that
base.
Funding
from
10
000
to
15.
000
am
I
getting
that
number
right.
That's
independent
of
any
other
changes
to
the
partnership,
engagement
fund
or
any
other
other
funds
right.
E
Yes,
chair
council,
member
from
why
I
understand
the
the
mayor
increased
the
neighborhood
Network
fund
to
fifteen
thousand
dollars
from
ten
thousand
dollars.
That
would
be
only
that
would
be
dedicated
to
the
neighborhood
Network
fund,
so
you're
you're,
correct.
Okay,
thank
you.
I
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
Administrative
costs,
plus
Staffing
costs,
make
a
neighborhood
operational
and
I
appreciate.
I
appreciate
your
work
here.
I
appreciate
that
you
had
said.
The
administrative
need
for
neighborhoods
is
fifteen
thousand
dollars,
but
that
does
not
include
staff.
I
So
could
you
help
us
understand
how
neighborhoods
are
supposed
to
pay
for
their
staff
in
an
organized
network
of
neighborhood
organizations?
Sure.
E
Sure,
chair
council,
member
Council,
vice
president,
that's
an
excellent
question
and
that's
one
that
we
really
tried
to
research.
Quite
a
bit:
neighborhood
organizations,
some
pay,
their
staff
16
17
an
hour
all
the
way
up
to
ninety
dollars
an
hour.
So
there's
not
a
there.
The
range
is
so
great
with
that
that
it's
tough
for
for
our
team
to
say
this
is
the
amount
that's
needed
for
for
staff.
E
I
will
say
that
NCR
is
considering
like
refinements
to
the
allocation
model
based
on
Lessons
Learned
and
any
refinements
of
those
will
be
within
the
scope
of
guidelines
with
an
equity
lens
and
then
in
accordance
with
the
council's
approved
formula
before
I
think
will
will
develop
that.
But
we
need
to
have
more
of
a
Clarity
around
the
budget
numbers
prior
yeah.
I
I
I
wonder
if
there's
a
way
to
increase
the
Equitable
engagement
fund,
the
Outreach
allocation
to
allow
the
smaller
groups
to
still
do
the
work,
that's
expected
of
them
by
the
city
and
by
NCR,
if
the
intent
is
for
them
to
be
able
to
use
those
Equitable
engagement
funds,
that's
a
huge
range
right.
What
you
mentioned
so
some
get
less
than
two
thousand
dollars
per
year,
and
that
makes
it
very
hard
for
them
to
hire
or
contract
with
staff
at
that
amount
at
two
thousand
dollars
per
year.
I
I
I
appreciate
all
this
work
and
I
appreciate
what
the
mayor
has
proposed
in
an
increase
as
an
increase
here
we
can't
continue
to
starve
neighborhood
associations
and
yet
I
recognize
that
we
need
to
find
a
way
to
do
this
within
the
existing
budget
of
how
much
we
spend
overall
on
neighborhoods.
So
thank
you
for
your
work
and
I
still
think
we
have
a
staffing
problem
from
a
neighborhood
perspective.
I
D
Thank
you,
madam
chair
Steve,
I'm,
just
off
the
top
of
your
head
director.
Gallagher
excuse
me
manager.
D
How
are
the
neighborhood
merger
discussions
going?
I
know
over
on
east
side
of
town?
There
were
four
that
were
talking.
It
kind
of
didn't
work
out
any
other
progress
on
other
neighborhoods
merging.
E
Chair
council,
member
I
think
you're
talking
about
the
Four
Corners
collaboration
on
the
northeast,
where
one
neighborhood
dropped
out.
The
three
other
neighborhoods
are
continuing
that
discussion
and
planning
going
through
with
the
merger
with
the
other
organizations.
I
believe,
there's
I
think
we'll
see
some
movement
when
it
comes
to
two
in
Mid-South
that
they'll
look
at
at
merging
I,
don't
know
if
I
should.
E
Yes,
I
believe
it's
I
believe
it's
working,
I
think
I'll,
be
honest
with
you.
I
believe
that
we
made
a
mistake
in
the
beginning,
where
I
believe
that
we
should
have
done
is
waited
a
year
prior
to
imp
or
prior
to
putting
out
the
shared
research
collaboration
fund
and
set
that
up
over
a
year
period
and
then
had
the
money
come
forward
at
that
point,
I
think
when
we,
when
we
started
it
out,
there
was
a
lot
of
questions
about
what
the
future
of
funding
of
neighborhoods.
What
does
that
really
mean?
E
So
I
think
we
were
a
year
early,
but
we
are
seeing
some
results
from
those
that
are
in
the
second
in
the
third
year
coming
out.
That
fund
is
not
scheduled
to
be
renewed
from
the
original
guidelines,
and
so
this
2023
was
the
last
year
of
the
shared
resource
collaboration
fund.
A
Thank
you,
councilmember
rainville
I
want
to
say
thank
you
again
for
this
presentation
and
I
share
similar
concerns
as
council
member
promisano.
We're
grateful
that
the
mayor
did
include
additional
funds
in
the
budget,
but
we
need
more
our
neighborhoods
anymore.
This
is
one
of
the
topics
that
comes
up
almost
daily
on
the
North
side
from
all
of
the
neighborhood
groups,
the
the
amount
of
just
base
funding
they
need
to
operate
and
to
have
staff
in
place.
A
So
my
office,
of
course,
will
be
working
with
you
all
to
see
what
kind
of
adjustments
we
can
make
to
this
because
we
have
to
have
our
neighborhood
groups
functioning.
You
know
it's,
it's
just
necessary
for
a
lot
of
the
work
that
we
are
expecting
communities
to
do,
and
so
thank
you
for
the
presentation,
part
two
and,
of
course,
we'll
stay
in
touch
about
how
we
move
forward.
Councilmember
wansley.
Thank.
C
You
Sheriff
manager,
gallon
Gallagher
from
the
last
presentation.
I.
Remember
you
all
laid
out
a
couple
of
recommendations
on
how
we
could
approach
funding
if
we
were
trying
to
get
at
that
twenty
thousand
dollar
base,
and
just
trying
to
recap
off
you
did
mention.
One
pathway
was
just
new
additional
dollars
which,
from
my
understanding,
that
was
the
infusion
that
mayor
fry
took
as
our
approach
to
get
to
the
15.
You
also
mentioned
we
could
do
property.
C
Basically,
we
will
have
to
raise
above
the
6.2
Levy
that
we
just
also
approved
so
we're
looking
at
again
adding
additional
costs
beyond
that
6.2
Levy
percent.
That
I
know.
Some
of
my
colleagues
have
already
stressed
this
too
much
on
Working
Class
People,
but
that
would
be
another
pathway
and
that
is
through
additional
revenue
and
then
the
third,
which
was
around
the
equity
component.
C
We
will
be
looking
at
taking
dollars
from
the
most
diverse
or
neighborhood
associations
in
the
most
diverse
neighborhoods,
in
order
to
reach
a
base
funding
or
that
Universal
based
funding,
which
kind
of
goes
against
the
grain
of
the
recommendations
that
came
from
neighborhoods
2020.,
so
I
remember,
there
was
a
couple
of
Pathways
that
is
included
in
the
report
in
case
colleague
still
wants
to
marinate
on
some
of
those
one
of
which
the
mayor
seems
like
they
took
up.
C
The
other
would
be
increasing
Levy
to
reach
those
additional
levels
of
new
spending,
so
above
that
6.2
percent,
or
taking
from
our
predominantly
black
and
brown
neighborhood
associations
in
those
NPR
or
NRP
dollars
and
rerouting
them.
So
those
are
the
pathways
that
I
thought
was
clearly
laid
out
in
that
report.
C
C
E
Another
increase
of
840
000
would
result
in
blank
amount
per
neighborhood
organization,
as
I
talked
about
before
we
are
looking
at
the
allocation
model,
not
the
we're
looking
at
the
allocation
model
and
see
how
how
we
can
make
some
adjustment
to
to
ensure
equity
and
ensure
that
there's
funds
with
the
with
the
neighbors
and
the
most
need,
while
also
assisting
with
the
with
the
neighborhoods
that
receive
a
thousand
dollars
on
the
Equitable
engagement
fund,
we're
working
through
that
we
did.
E
We
do
need
some
a
little
bit
more
information
where
it
comes
from
the
budget.
The
budget
process,
but
I
think
we
have
a
really
good
start
on
that.
I
can
tell
you
internally,
we've
developed
multiple
models
just
for
discussion
purposes,
to
see
what
those
look
like
and
so
I
I
think
what
we'll
probably
end
up
doing
is
reaching
out
to
all
of
our
council
members
see
if
we
can
have
a
one-on-one
meeting,
and
we
can
talk,
talk
these
even
further
even
more
before
the
budget
process.
Awesome.
