A
A
A
So
this
resolution
of
the
city
council
and
the
mayor
is
honoring.
The
life
of
Camille
J
Gage,
whereas
Camille
J
Gage
was
a
mother,
a
grandmother,
a
wife,
an
artist,
an
activist,
a
writer,
an
educator,
a
feminist
and
environmentalist,
a
water,
Justice
Warrior,
a
yoga
instructor,
Beloved,
Community
leader
and
so
much
more.
She
moved
from
Minnesota.
A
She
also
produced
an
edited
poetry
and
Essay
books,
including
including
Fierce
Lament
and
one
one
Minneapolis,
a
city
in
verse
and
I'm
so
proud
to
have
work
in
both
of
those
Publications,
and
that
was
at
the
request
of
the
former
mayor,
Betsy
Hodges
of
Minneapolis,
which
features
poets
from
across
Minneapolis
neighborhoods
and
whereas
Camille's
Legacy
is
one
of
kind-hearted
convener
of
brands.
A
A
She
served
at
Minneapolis,
homeless,
encampments,
the
Native
American
Community,
Development
Institute,
and
the
indigenous-led
knee
B
walks
and
whereas
Camille
touched
the
lives
of
countless
relatives,
friends,
neighbors
and
community
members.
She
often
said
her
daily
goal
was
to
make
someone
else
smile
and
to
make
their
world
better
for
a
day.
A
I
want
to
offer
the
family
and
anyone
else
who
would
like
to
share
a
few
remarks
and
we'll
start
with
Mr,
probably.
C
Thank
you,
I'm
Pat,
thank
you,
council,
president
Jenkins
and
fellow
council
members.
I
am
Patrick
Mulligan,
and
this
is
an
honor
I
know.
Camille
would
have
loved
and
appreciated
as
she
cared
deeply
for
the
City
of
Minneapolis
and
those
who
knew
her.
Remember
she
backed
up
that
passion
with
effort,
energy
and
enthusiasm.
D
A
Is
that
it?
Thank
you
all
for
being
here.
It's
a
really
sad
occasion,
I
think.
If
Camille
was
here,
she
would
be
on.
A
So
our
next
resolution-
honoring
Black,
History,
Month
and
I-
want
to
invite
the
M
bin
folks
to
come
on
down
and
we
are
joined
by
Chief
Tyner.
A
A
And
whereas
the
department
identifies
trendsetters
in
the
areas
in
the
areas
of
business,
criminal,
justice,
education,
Economic,
Development,
Health,
philanthropy,
housing
and
government
and
Define
them
as
history
makers
at
home.
And
whereas
the
department
also
recognizes
the
kinship
of
the
work
of
trend,
setting
history
makers
to
those
who
are
Legacy
Trailblazers
and
whereas
to
support
and
Foster
our
own
history
makers
at
home,
the
City
of
Minneapolis
Enterprise
and
employee
Resource
Group
to
support
black
city
employees.
A
The
work
of
this
body
will
help
to
create
a
Truth
and
Reconciliation
Commission
to
begin
implementing
specific
solutions
to
specific
harms
that
created
and
perpetuate
racial
disparities
among
both
groups,
whereas
each
year
we
continue
to
highlight
dedicated
black
leaders
in
Minneapolis
and
the
Twin
Cities
region
and
will
celebrate
a
historic
city
council
term
with
Six
Flags
city
council.
Members.
Now,
therefore,
be
it
resolved
that
the
mayor
and
city
council
do
hereby
commemorate
the
achievements
of
black
Americans
as
history.
D
E
Thank
you
first
of
all,
I
want
to
thank
you,
council,
president
and
members
of
the
city
council
for
this
resolution.
It
really
is
a
a
great
honor
for
me
and
us
to
be
able
to
accept
this.
You
know
I
just
want
to
every
year
in
February.
We
we
take
this
month
to
celebrate
black
history,
but
just
the
one
thing
that
I
want
to
put
out
there
is
that
you
know
black
history,
isn't
just
black
history.
It's
American
history,
Native
American
history
is
American.
E
History,
we've
all
contributed
to
the
successes
of
this
country.
Even
when
you
know
the
the
narrative
hasn't
always
reflected
that.
So.
A
A
Thank
you,
and
we
will
now
return
to
our
regular
agenda
and
I
will
ask
the
clerk
to
call
the
roll
to
verify
the
president.
H
A
I
You,
madam
president,
I'd
like
to
ask
us
to
include
our
recent
receipt
of
Mayor
Fry's
appointment
of
Damon
chaplain
under
new
business.
This
item
would
then
get
referred
to
the
public
health
and
safety
committee
next
cycle,
so
that
the
public
health
and
safety
committee
can
recommend
a
time
for
a
future
public
hearing.
After
that.

A
Thank
you
that
carries
and
colleagues
before
we
take
up
our
regular
committee
work.
I
am
going
to
offer
to
bring
the
item
which
we
have
many
Community
residents
here
today.
The.
A
The
item
related
to
the
roof
Depot
first,
so
that
we
can
take
up
this
issue
and
allow
the
residents
that
have
shown
up
here
to
be
a
part
of
this
meeting
so
that
they
don't
have
to
wait
until
the
very
end
of
this
meeting
and
I
see.
Council
members,
Chavez
and
Q.
F
Not
a
priority
motion,
Madam
President.
We
need
to
have
the
motion
in
front
of
us.
First.
The
item
came
out
of
the
Pogo
committee
with
no
recommendation
so
putting
the
item
in
front
of
the
board,
as
you
or
the
council
as
you've
just
suggested,
is
the
first
piece
we
need
to
put
the
item
in
front
of
us.
We
need
a
motion
on
what
to
do
with
it.
There
is
at
your
desks
a
proposal.
F
A
Thank
you,
so,
colleagues,
we
do
have
a.
A
F
A
We
have
the
issue
before
us:
the
demolition
of
the
roof
Depot.
F
And
Madam
president,
if
I
could
maybe
just
add
one
more
clarification
to
that.
The
item
that
came
through
Pogo
is
the
proposed
contract
for
phase
two
demolition
project
and
it's
listed
on
the
agenda:
The
Proposal
from
councilman,
Chavez
and
Chavez.
It's
my
understanding.
The
authors
can
speak
to
this
as
a
companion
item
that
supplements
that
issue.
F
So
the
item
before
you
is
the
contract
that
was
brought
through
the
process
with
no
recommendation
from
committee.
You
also
have
in
front
of
you
a
companion
item.
This
council
members,
Johnson
and
Chavez,
are
proposing
an
amended
memorandum
of
understanding
and
settlement
agreement
term
sheet,
so
the
two
items
are
both
related
to
the
project
at
the
Hiawatha
Public
Works
project,
the
one
that
came
through
the
process
needs
to
be
disposed
of.
The
council
members
have
a
companion
item
that
goes
with
it.
The
council
and
its
pleasure
can
certainly
package
those
together.
F
B
Thank
you,
madam
president.
What
I
would
propose
is
that
they
are
separate
votes
and
that
we
take
up
the
amended
mou
that
councilmember
Chavez
is,
is
interested
or
is
able
to
move
first,
and
then
we
would
take
up.
The
contract
run
the
demolition
after.
A
F
The
motion
is
printed
on
the
front
page.
It
says
Pogo
item
number
four
Hiawatha
Public
Works
motion
by
Johnson
and
Chavez.
The
motion
follows
which
is
to
approve
that
amended
mou,
so
as
councilmember
Johnson
just
explained,
acting
on
that
proposal
by
a
separate
vote
first
and
then
returning
to
the
original
proposal,
which
is
the
contract,
would
be
the
second
vote.
A
Thank
you,
so
colleagues
and
I
I
do
apologize
to
everyone.
I
have
a
slew
of
papers,
and
so
it's
kind
of
hard
and
we're
going
out
of
order.
However,
council
member
Chavez
and
has
moved
emotion
to
approve
an
amended
mou
settlement
agreement
term
sheet
related
to
the
Hiawatha
Public
Works,
Expansion,
Project
and
authorize
the
proper
city
of
issues
executed
in
agreement
and
other
documents
necessary
to
effectuate.
The
settlement
with
the
East
Phillips
neighborhood
Institute
is
further
set
forth
in
the
legislative
file.
2021-00461.
J
I,
don't
think
it
comes
to
president
Jenkins
I
just
want
to
check
with
the
clerk.
My
intention
is
to
have
two
separate
votes
and
I
just
want
to
clarify
that.
That
is
what
is
going
to
happen
right
now.
Okay,
yes,
so,
council,
president
Jenkins,
this
is
the
motion
that
I've
been
working
on
with
councilman
Johnson
or
at
the
beginning
of
the
year
we
were
trying
to
stop
the
demolition
of
the
roof
Depot
building
along
with
Council
murkowsky
and
a
lot
of
my
colleagues
in
here.
A
J
My
office
in
concert
at
Costco
were
able
to
bring
an
mou
that
we
passed
on
this
Council
and
now
we're
just
me
and
councilman
Johnson
are
bringing
forward
an
amendment
to
the
mlu
that
we
want
to
get
passed
on
this
Bond
before
demolition,
the
demolition
vote,
so
I
just
wanted
to
explain
what
is
in
this
there's
three
acres
for
the
community
in
the
East
Falls
neighborhood
Institute
for
Community
use,
there's
a
training
facility
that
will
be
brought
into
the
project
with
the
people
having
employment
opportunities
in
a
two
mile
radius.
J
Yes,
yes,
I
will
I
will
speak
a
little
slower
and
sorry
a
little
sick,
there's
gonna,
be
a
pilot,
solar
charging,
pod
and
basic
infrastructure
for
interim
Community
use
and
then,
with
this
new
Amendment,
we're
working
to
have
the
city
provide
safe
and
dedicated
access
for
non-motorized
transportation
between
the
greenway,
the
urban
farm,
dedicated
plant
planting
and
maintaining
trees.
We're
trying
to
make
sure
that
the
East
Phillips
neighborhood
does
have
a
prioritization
in
trees.
We
know
that
planting
more
trees
in
this
neighborhood
will
help
offset
any
pollution.
J
That's
going
to
come
in
with
the
project,
making
sure
that
we
can
have
more
traffic
coming
in
this
area
to
offset
the
pollution
and
redirect
the
car
vehicles
that
are
going
to
come
into
the
neighborhood,
and
one
thing
that
I
really
like
about
this
part
is
that
we'll
have
a
third
party,
Fleet
electrification
advisory
service
to
make
sure
that
we
can,
you
know,
inform
future
Fleet
electrification
and
then
me
and
customer
Johnson
have
been
working
with
some
community
members
I'm,
making
sure
that
we
work
with
igr
and
our
state
legislature
to
help
like
phase
out
different
polluters
in
the
neighborhood.
J
There
so
there's
two
different
bolts
that
I
can
I
want
to
clarify
for
everybody
else.
There's
two
different
bolts
that
are
gonna
come
from
this.
This
is
the
mou
that
we're
making
an
amendment
to
and
then
later
down
after
this
we're
gonna
take
a
vote
separately
for
the
demolition.
B
Thank
you,
madam
president,
and
I'm
really
glad
to
see
this
motion
today
and
really
want
to
thank
councilmember
Chavez
for
his
leadership
and
always
fighting
so
hard
for
the
community
and
I
want
to
thank
folks
for
being
here
today
and
I
know.
We
have
a
lot
of
folks
out
in
the
hall
too.
I
want
to
thank
you
for
being
here
today
as
well.
You
know
I've
been
working
with
this
community
since
the
start
for
better
outcomes,
and
this
goes
all
the
way
back
to
when
I
was
first
selected.
B
I
remember,
it
was
maybe
2014
2015
when
this
issue
first
came
up.
I
also
want
to
recognize
that
East
Phillips
is
a
community
that
has
been
historically
burdened
by
pollution
and
from
the
start,
one
of
the
things
that
I've
said.
That
I
personally
believe
is
that
this
is
about
the
community
having
a
say
in
what
happens
with
the
site
just
like
we
would
see
in
other
communities,
including
my
own,
when
there
are
development
projects.
B
However,
I
also
from
the
start
have
said
that
I
do
not
believe
that
this
is
about
specifically
at
this
site.
I,
do
not
believe
that
this
specific
site
or
plan
adds
any
significant
pollution,
so
I
have
fought
for
the
community
to
have
a
choice
on
this
site
like
other
communities
would
have.
Even
though
some
of
us
disagree
about
the
pollution
concerns
specific
to
the
Hiawatha
facility
expansion
plans
over
the
years,
we
were
on
losing
side
the
losing
side
of
several
votes,
and
we
tried
so
many
different
approaches.
B
I
want
to
let
folks,
in
this
room
and
on
the
hall,
know
I
even
tried
to
get
the
campus
expansion
moved
to
my
ward
to
Ward
12.,
but
we
had
renewed
hope
after
the
last
of
the
election,
that
we
could
change
the
city's
official
stance
and
give
Community
a
decision
on
this
site,
and
we
were
able
to
do
that.
Though,
notwithstanding
a
mayoral
veto,
that
there
was
not
enough
support
on
the
council
to
override.
B
It
was
not
a
great
choice
because
there
was
a
high
cost
required
under
state
law
to
pay
back
the
city's
water
fund
and
a
tight
timeline
for
arranging
Finance.
If
that's
the
direction
that
EP
and
I
wanted
to
proceed,
but
it
was
still
a
choice
and
after
consideration,
the
community
representatives
from
epni
at
least
conceptually
agreed
with
the
path
of
splitting
the
site.
However,
when
the
memorandum
of
understanding
that
the
council
passed
was
reviewed,
there
were
outstanding
disagreements
and
concerns
they
felt
were
not
addressed,
so
the
city
and
Community
were
at
an
impasse.
B
Together,
we
pushed
for
solutions
to
the
outstanding
concerns,
and
the
mayor
and
Public
Works
were
willing
to
negotiate
further
and
make
more
concessions.
We
eventually
reached
the
point
where
all
of
us
negotiating
had
come
into
agreement
on
an
amended
mou
that
we
could
support,
and
that
is
what
is
before
us
today
and
it
is
supported
by
the
mayor
in
public
works
as
well.
However,
I
want
to
note
that
the
epni
board
has
not
yet
agreed
to
the
amended
mou
and
we
are
still
working
to
have
further
discussions
with
them.
B
This
amended
memorandum
of
understanding
is
a
good
one.
It
will
address
concerns
with
overall
pollution
in
the
neighborhood.
That's
because
it
will
prioritize
tree
planting
all
over
the
neighborhood
which
will
help
filter
the
air.
It
will
make
sure
that
roadway
changes
are
implemented
that
help
calm
and
reduce
traffic
leading
to
less
vehicle
emissions
and
safer
streets
for
residents.
B
It
will
make
the
Public
Works
facility,
the
epicenter,
of
moving
away
from
fossil
fuels
and
converting
vehicles
to
Electric
will
have
the
environmental
remediation
on
the
site
to
clean
clean
up
pollution
from
Decades
of
activity
at
roof.
Depot
there
will
be
a
training
center
for
a
community
to
create
good
paying
union
jobs,
and
the
city
will
not
only
be
giving
three
acres
to
Epi
for
free,
but
at
this
time
when
we
have
a
trifecta
at
the
state,
a
record
State,
Surplus
and
Minneapolis
legislators
and
key
leadership
positions
over
at
the
legislature.
B
That
is
why,
despite
knowing
it
will
disappoint
some
of
my
friends,
I
will
reluctantly
vote
for
the
demolition
today,
but
I'm
happy
that
we
were
able
to
bring
this
mou
forward
and
I
would
encourage
my
and
I
would
encourage
my
colleagues.
I
would
encourage
all
of
my
colleagues
to
support
this
amended
memorandum
of
understanding.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you,
councilmember
Johnson,
Calise
I
did
put
myself
in
queue,
and
you
know
first
of
all,
I
I
do
want
to
acknowledge
the
harms
that
Environmental
racism
has
done
to
communities
all
across
this
country
and
specifically
to
the
community
that
is
present
here
today.
The
East
Phillips
neighborhood
Institute
I
personally
live
with
the
impacts
of
environmental
racism.
A
The
the
I
I
believe
that
racism
and
environmental
racism
has
created
significant
Health
impacts
in
many
many
communities,
so
I
absolutely
recognize
and
understand
the
very
real
concerns
that
folks
are
bringing
forward.
Today.
A
A
That
does
provide
significant
Community
benefits
to
the
east
Phillips
neighborhood
in
20
20
after
the
murder
of
George
Floyd,
who
died,
saying
I
can't
breathe
in
the
midst
of
a
Global
pandemic.
A
A
Without
this
memorandum
of
understanding
that
council,
member,
Chavez
and
Johnson
has
been
able
to
craft
today,
but
I
I
reignited
that
conversation
in
halted
that
expansion,
so
that
we
could
provide
some
benefits
to
the
neighborhood
to
the
community.
A
It
is
critical
that
we
have
this
water
maintenance
facility
for
all
of
the
residents
in
our
city,
for
our
workers
to
have
a
an
accessible
and
environmentally
sustainable
facility
to
work
in,
as
well
as
to
create
opportunities
for
the
people
of
East,
Phillips
and
other
marginalized
communities
to
get
training
to
be
able
to
participate
in
our
society
in
ways
that
that
are
meaningful
and
provide
living
wage
opportunities
for
families
well
into
the
future,
and
so
I
just
want
to
say.
Thank
you
to
my
colleagues
for
bringing
this
resolution
forward.
A
I
will
be
supporting
this
more.
This
memorandum
of
understanding
and
I
hope
that
all
my
colleagues
will
too

You
saying
no
further
comments
in
the

I
will
ask
the

to
Colorado.

A
A
I
I
recognize
that
some
people
don't
like
compromise.
However,
that
is
how
the
world
works.
G
A
Please
have
some
decorum
for
us
to
be
able
to
conduct
a
business
of
the
city.
The
next
item
in
front
of
us
is
a
contract
for
the
demolition
of
the
the
roof
Depot.
Is
there
a.
M
J
Council
president
Jenkins
I
just
wanted
to
make
some
comments
on
the
demo.
Can
y'all
hear
me?
Can
you
hear
me
can
y'all
hear
me?
Okay,
I
just
wanted
to
make
some
comments
on
the
demolition.
For
decades
my
East
Phillips
neighbors
have
been
fighting
against
pollution
in
our
backyard,
but
two
minutes
roadways,
Smith
Foundry
and
the
highway
right
next
door
have
made
this
neighborhood
one
of
the
most
polluted
in
the
City
of
Minneapolis.
J
In
2014,
our
residents
found
out
that
the
owners
of
the
roof
Depot
side
across
the
street
were
going
to
sell
the
7.6
Acres
community
members
knew
that
children
could
not
tolerate
more
pollution
moving
into
our
neighborhood.
This
led
to
the
creation
of
the
East
Phillips,
inter
Urban
Farm
project
that
was
built
by
and
for
the
community.
J
This
background
is
important
to
know,
as
some
of
these
comments
were
mentioned
just
right
now,
on
Sunday
I
attended
a
community
meeting
about
this
demolition.
I
heard
from
our
native
relatives
about
their
fears
of
what
more
pollution
will
do
to
our
community
I.
Think
about
my
dear
friend
Cassie
from
Little
Earth,
who
lost
her
son
Trinidad
to
a
heart
condition
at
age,
16.
J
J
J
It
said
that
you
couldn't
eat
from
your
soil
because
it
was
contaminated,
and
now
we
live
in
a
country
that
decides
which
immigrants
can
have
access
to
health
care
and
which
cannot.
So
how
can
my
family
there
has
been
a
victim
of
environmental
Injustice,
get
the
access
to
health
care
that
they
deserve,
and
how
can
my
families
and
friends
and
Neighbors
in
East
Phillips
get
the
support
when
they
need
to
go
to
the
doctor,
I
I
needed
to
get
that
on
my
chest,
because
that
is
like.
J
We
ultimately
got
vetoed
and
had
to
find
this
different
pathway,
which
is
why
I
brought
forward
a
separate
mou
earlier
today
and
while
I'm
appreciative
of
my
colleagues
up
here
that
have
supported
the
mou
and
have
supported
me
in
this
process,
there's
still
a
lawsuit
that
my
community
would
like
to
have
an
answer
to
and
which
is
why
I
cannot
support
demolition.
So
with
that
with
that
concept
with
that.
J
And
I
don't
want
that
to
take
away
from
the
work
that
that
we
have
done
throughout
the
year
and
the
support
I've
had
for
my
colleagues,
because
I
I
do
appreciate
that
heavily
and
have
appreciated
them
every
step
of
the
way.
But
yeah
I
would
just
move
to
delay
this
one
cycle,
council
president-
and
that
would
be
my
final
comment
on
this
item.
N
A
So
we
have
a
motion
and
a
second
to
delay
the
the
contract.
Is
there
any
discussion.
H
I
want
to
thank
residents
who
are
here
to
stand
up
against
this
demolition
I'm.
So
sorry,
you
have
to
keep
coming
back
here,
but
you
know
and
I
hope.
You
know
that
you
are
part
of
a
powerful
Legacy
of
centuries
of
people
who
have
been
resisting
colonialism
and
white
supremacy,
and
you
should
be
proud
of
yourself
for
standing
up
today.
H
The
city
has
let
East
Phillips
and
little
Earth
become
the
most
polluted
part
of
the
city
for
decades,
and
it's
our
residents
who
pay
the
price
and
the
cost
of
that,
and
this
room
is
packed
with
working-class
people
who
are
genuinely
concerned
about
their
health
and
their
safety
and
based
on
the
city's
history.
They
are
every
right.
You
are
every
right
to
be
concerned
about
that,
the
hypocrisy,
the
hypocrisy.
Someone
noted
that
all
this
action
is
shocking.
H
The
city
did
declare
racism
to
be
a
public
health
emergency
and
did
form
that
Truth
and
Reconciliation
Commission
to
propose
solutions
to
specific
harms
that
the
city
created
and
continues
against
black
and
Indigenous
communities.
Yet
we
are
simultaneously
being
asked
to
force
a
project
onto
a
community
that
has
organized
tirelessly
for
almost
10
years
against
it
this
demolition
vote.
H
This
demolition
vote
is
both
hypocritical
and
equally
cruel,
and
what
is
the
point
of
making
statements
informing
these
commissions
to
study
our
past
harm
if
we're
going
to
continue
to
inflict
that
harm?
Without
any
regards,
and
given
this
context,
it
is
unconscionable
to
support
this
Demolition,
and
these
we
love
symbolism
around
here
instead
of
action,
and
these
actions
will
only
perpetuate
the
city's
pattern
of
environmental
racism.
H
H
H
And
I
will
be
voting
against
this
demolition,
because
I
support
our
community
and
I
refuse
to
be
remembered
10
years
from
now
as
being
one
of
the
folks
who
supported
the
poisoning
of
our
black
and
Indigenous
people
and
I.
Thank
you
for
being
here
and
I
will
be
with
you
here
and
in
the
streets
of
need,
be.
Thank
you.
N
Councilmember
Payne.
Thank
you.
Madam
president.
I
support
the
delay
of
this
Demolition
and
I.
It's
so
important
that
all
of
us
on
this
day
has
recognize
that
this
isn't
just
about
the
roof
Depot.
This
isn't
just
about
a
building.
N
This
is
about
a
society
that
has
treated
people
as
disposable,
and
this
is
about
a
moment
in
our
city,
where
we
recognize
that
that's
how
history
has
worked
in
this
country
and
we
all
ran
for
city
council
to
shape
how
this
country
should
work,
and
this
is
the
tip
of
the
Spear
of
demonstrating
that
we
as
a
government
have
the
capacity
to
listen
to
the
community,
to
recognize
our
history
and
to
do
things
differently
and
I.
Think
this
is
a
quite
modest
request
to
delay
the
cycle.

A
That

that

R
Thank
you.
Madam

The

Compensation

John,
engstrom
and
I
will
move
approval
of
all
the
items
except
for
item
four,
which
has
been
decided
already.
A
Council
member
Ellison
has
moved
and
Palestinian
government
oversight
committee
report.
Is
there
any
discussion
council
member
wansley
thank.
H
You
so
I'm
speaking
to
item
number
one
and
with
the
amended
legislative
directive.
I
have
brought
this
forward
to
help
us
get
information
about
how
the
Minneapolis
currently
well
Minneapolis
Police,
currently
conduct
their
off-duty
contract
program,
and
this
program
has
been
a
subject
of
interest
for
many
years
with
council
member
and
now
Vice
President
promisato
leading
audit
of
that
program
in
2019.
H
This
director
picks
up
kind
of
where
that
left
off
and
gets
information
for
the
council
to
ensure
that
off-duty
contracts
are
part
of
an
equitable
high
quality
comprehensive
safety
system
that
we
all
want
to
see.
I
brought
this
through
the
policy
and
government
oversight
committee,
because
the
city
attorney's
office
advised
me
that
this
was
most
closely
related
to
The
Police
contract
and
that's
where
we
handle
matters
around
that
particular
contract.
H
It
passed
through
Pogo,
where
unanimous
support
from
my
colleagues,
but
also
in
that
committee
meeting
council
member
vitar,
who
is
also
a
member
of
pogo
and
a
chair
of
the
public
health
and
safety
committee,
expressed
that
you
know
she
was
excited
to
take
this
work
up
in
PHS
and
to
use
this
information
as
a
springboard
to
create
legislation.
H
I'm
glad
to
hear
that
there
is
so
much
interest
towards
not
just
having
a
presentation
on
this
information,
but
to
also
use
it
to
take
action
and
I'm
more
than
happy
to
do
that,
work
in
PHS.
So
that
said,
I
have
amended
the
legislative
directive
to
reflect
that
change.
Previously,
the
last
line
of
this
directive
was
present
the
request
and
information,
including
any
proposed
changes
or
policy
implementation
implementations,
along
with
the
fiscal
analysis
of
any
recommendations
to
the
Minneapolis
City
council's
policy
and
government
oversight
committee
no
later
than
March
27
2023..
H
H
If
this
passes,
as
amended,
I
will
of
course
be
happy
to
connect
with
all
members
of
pogo
who
are
not
on
PHS
they're
sure
that
they're
able
to
stay
engaged
on
this
work,
even
though
it's
going
to
be
moving
forward
in
PHS
I'm.
Sorry
I
just
want
to
give
some
context
about
that
change.
A
J
F
A
You
Mr
quote
so
next.
Thank
you
on
the
wansley
amendment
is
councilmember
Ellison.
R
Thank
you,
madam
president.
I
just
wanted
to
speak
to
this
really
quickly.
I
want
to
thank
my
committee
members
and
I
especially
want
to
spank
thank
Vice,
chair
wansley,
for
bringing
this
forward
and
working
with
you
know
a
lot
working
with
the
police
department,
working
with
with
various
departments
to
in
order
to
bring
this
forward.
R
I
think
there
was
a
good
discussion
about
you
know,
contracts
which
usually
come
to
Pogo
versus
the
potential
for
policy
making
and
I
think
that
through
some
discussion
with
councilmember
Vita
and
others,
we
figured
that
this
may
very
well
be
the
kind
of
presentation
and
the
kind
of
information
that
could
result
in
policy
change.
And
so
that's
why
we
felt
like
it
was
appropriate
to
change
it
coming
through
Pogo
to
public
health
and
safety
and
I
really
want
to
appreciate
councilmember
Vita.
R
For
welcoming
this
item,
mphs
and
and
then
I
want
to
thank
vicer
wansley
for
being
amenable
to
changing
where
the
reporting
goes
to,
and
so
you
know,
I
think
this
I
hope
my
colleagues
are
going
to
support
this
I've
heard.
R
We've
had
a
lot
of
discussion
over
the
years
about
how
do
we
get
some
level
of
transparency
and
oversight
on
over
this
issue
and
I
think
that
this
could
be
a
good
start
to
that,
and
so
I
also
would
love
to
add
myself
as
an
author
to
this
staff
directive,
if
that's
a
amenable
to
councilmember,
wansley
and
and
would
would
love
to
invite
the
public
health
and
safety
chair
and
vice
chair
to
do
the
same
if
if
they
have
any
interest
in
having
their
their
names
on
this,
since
it
will
be
coming
to
their
committee.
R
So
that's
all
I've
got
and
just
want
to
thank
everybody
involved
in
for
working
through
some
of
those
Fine
Lines
and
making
sure
that
we're
landing
on
the
right
side
of
them.
I
Thank
you,
madam
chair
I'm,
going
to
make
full
use
of
speaker
management
here
and
ask
that
we
add
a
second
amendment.
A
worrisome
component
is
the
final
language
that
requires
what
I
will
call
Private
briefings
or
updates
for
the
authors
of
the
directive.
I
To
me
this
undermines
the
intent
of
our
policy
on
these
legislative
directives.
The
whole
goal
was
to
ensure
a
consistent,
transparent
process
for
the
council
and
all
of
our
committees
to
get
information
from
the
administration
for
decision
making
kinds
of
needs.
That
policy
consistently
speaks
about
the
council
or
the
committee.
It
doesn't
reference
individual
council
members
with
respect
to
directives
that
defines
a
directive
is
an
official
Act
of
this
body
and
cites
the
city
Charter
for
our
Authority
here.
I
This
purpose
is
to
ensure
all
13
of
us
have
the
benefit
of
that
information
and
having
individual
briefings
outside
of
that
process
exclusively
for
the
benefit
of
authors.
I
think
it
undermines
the
intent
of
the
policy,
so
I
appreciate
that
we're
all
learning
as
we
go
I
cannot
support,
including
what
is
the
actual
last
sentence
in
this
directive
and
I
would
not
support
it.
I
Going
forward
in
any
directive
to
me
that
undercuts
the
solidarity
of
this
body,
we
vote
on
all
directives
and
we
have
the
right
to
information
at
the
same
time
and
in
the
same
manner.
So
I
recognize
that
maybe
this
language
was
used
in
other
directives.
It
was
we
were
all
learning,
but
I,
don't
think
it's
appropriate
and
I
strongly
believe.
We
need
to
disregard
that
for
directives
already
in
play
and
not
allow
it
going
forward.
H
Thank
you,
madam
president.
I
just
actually
want
to
highlight
the
piece
that
Council
vice
president
raised
at
the
end
of
her
comments.
This
legislative
directive
does
follow
past
presidents
of
legislative
directives
that
we've
passed
example
around
the
homelessness
response,
legislative
directive
that
we
passed
in
December,
where
we
literally
had
the
same
language
there.
So
I
would
hope
that
you're
looking
to
retroactively
change
those
things,
because
this
does
follow
in
current
practice,
I
would
say
a
better
substitute,
an
amendment
that
I
will
offer
to
actually
encourage
transparency.
H
I
think
that's
absolutely!
The
goal
is
to
then
have
provide
bi-weekly
updates
to
public
health
and
safety,
the
legislative
body
that
this
will
now
be
referred
to.
So
to
me
that
still
allows
us
to
have
that
transparency
that
it
seems
like
you
are
emphasizing
a
desire
for
us
to
you
know
pursue,
and
we
should
be
pursuing.
I
absolutely
agree
with
that
and
say
we
should
be
doing
that
to
the
referred
legislative
body
that
would
be
PHS
but
to
strike
bi-weekly
all
outside
of
itself.
H
When
we've
done
that
in
past
presidents
and
when
we
say
we
want
transparency,
this
kind
of
undermines
that
by
striking
that
so
I
will
offer
that
substitute
or
friendly
Amendment
or
counter
Amendment
to
have
that
be
again.
Phs.
J
F
On
Madam
president
we're
too
deep,
there
are
two
amendments
in
queue.
You
can
only
have
two
amendments
at
a
time,
so
the
action
here
is
to
vote
on
the
last
Amendment
first
and
then
go
back
to
the
First
Amendment.
If
the
palmisano
amendment
fails,
for
example,
then
the
second
amendment
could
be
made,
but
there
are
only
two
amendments
to
a
main
motion
allowed
at
any
time.
A
All
right
so
discussion
on
the
promisano
motion.
D
Q
A
very
good
Amendment:
this
is
something
that
has
been
bothersome
to
me.
My
entire
career
and
I
give
credit
to
those
of
you
on
the
council
who
are
taking
it
seriously.
Many
of
you,
like
councilmember
Payne,
has
have
heard
me
say
this
before
and
I'm
going
to
keep
repeating
it.
This
is
something
we
need
to
get
our
hands
around
and
should
have
a
long
time
ago.
So
really
what
we're
arguing
about
now
is
process.
I
would
tend
to
lean
onto
the
side
of
briefing
everybody.
Q
Yeah
I
actually
put
my
name
on
to
be
an
author,
so
I
could
get
the
briefing,
but
I
do
think
that
perhaps
there
is
a
in
between
I'm,
not
sure
how
council
member
Vita
feels
about
having
it
in
our
committee
every
cycle,
but
I
do
think
it
should
go
to
the
council
process.
Q
There
Are
Places
on
difficult
issues
where
there
is
unanimity
about
the
solution.
This
is
one
of
them,
so
I
I
commend
councilmember
wansley
for
bringing
this
forward.
I
appreciate
council,
member
Ellison
and
council
member
Vitas
willingness
to
have
everyone
work
together
and
I
would
hope
we
could
agree
on
a
process
that
would
give
the
council
a
briefing.
So
even
if
I'm,
not
on
the
committee,
that's
okay
I
can
listen
to
it
later
or
watch
it
online.
Q
This
private
briefing
thing
I,
don't
think,
makes
a
lot
of
sense
on
any
legislative
Direction,
and
that
is
what
I
actually
put
my
name
in
so
early,
because
I
wanted
to
be
an
author
and
I
still
want
to
be
an
author,
whether
I
get
the
briefing
or
not
I.
Don't
have
a
lot
of
time,
but
I
do
think
that
this
is
something
that
needs
to
get
resolved
either
through
Department
of
Justice,
the
state
or
us
on
our
own.
Thank
you.
K
You,
madam
president,
I,
don't
support
this
this
this
palmisano
motion
to
amend
as
a
as
a
body
we
organize
ourselves
into
different
standing
committees.
K
That's
why
we
split
ourselves
up
and
we
decide
to
hone
in
on
different
issues
based
on
our
policy
priorities,
our
constituents,
the
the
the
policy
area
of
the
Committees
that
we
are
assigned
to
it
is.
That
is
the
way
we
all
make
sure
that
good
legislation
happens,
so
that
those
of
us
who
really
care
about
an
issuer
who
are
really
focused
on
working
on
something
are
doing
so
thoughtfully
and
are
in
the
Weeds
on
that
issue.
K
It
is
not
odd
for
members
of
this
Council
to
to
receive
private
briefings
on
the
ordinances,
the
legislative
directives,
the
whatever
it
is,
that
we're
working
on,
because
that's
the
thing
that
we
are
holding
the
closest
and
and
seeing
through
an
entire
process
and
then
bringing
our
colleagues
along
with
us.
K
Each
of
us
works
on
different
things
and
so
I
don't
think
it
is
out
of
out
of
the
intent
of
legislative
directives
and
I
say
this
as
a
person
that
helped
create
legislative
directives
in
the
first
place
that
that
we
have
the
authors
who
are
working
on
that
issue
work
closely
with
the
administration
and
then
beyond
that
I
I
would
add
that
I
would
add
that
I
just
I
just
think
that
it
is
really
important
for
for
legislative
directives
when
they
have
a
deadline
that
is
further
out
in
the
future.
K
If
the
authors
who
wrote
it
are
not
working
closely
with
the
administration
to
get
the
the
outcomes
listed,
then
we
end
up
in
situations
where
we
get
to
the
deadline
and
the
administration
is,
is
coming
in
and
presenting
the
information
that
was
requested,
and
it's
it's
out
of
line
with
what
the
intent
of
the
legislative
directive
was,
and
now
we
have
to
start
the
process
all
over
again.
K
There
is
a
lot
of
benefit
in
authors
being
involved
and
working
closely
with
the
administration
to
fulfill
the
the
items
listed
in
a
directive
so
that
the
information
that
comes
back
is
fruitful
and
so
that
we
are
not
to
to
steal
from
our
our
city
clerk,
we're
not
throwing
darts
blind
and
hoping
that
it
gets
to
what
we
need,
and
then
we
get
all
the
way
to
the
end
and
it's
the
the
final
product
is
out
of
alignment
with
what
the
intent
of
the
authors
was.
K
So
I
am
a
big
proponent
of
allowing
authors
to
receive
regular
updates
and
to
work
closely
with
the
administration.
That's
what
all
of
us
want
here.
That's
what
allows
for
good
policy
making
and
authors
working
with
other
council
members
who
are
are
interested
and
keeping
people
in
the
loop
and
giving
people
updates
on
on
what's
going
on.
But
this
is
about
good
policy
making
and
not
throwing
darts
blind.
N
Customer
Payne,
thank
you.
Madam
president.
I
got
myself
in
queue
on
the
original
motion
to
just
welcome
the
invitation
to
be
a
co-author
on
this,
but
I'll
speak
to
the
motion
before
us.
By
vice
president
Paul
massano
I
actually
replicated
some
similar
language
in
my
legislative
directive
around
BuyBacks
with
the
bi-weekly
check-in.
It
was
by
no
means
my
intent
to
make
that
a
private
briefing
and
in
fact
me
and
my
staff
were
just
talking
about
wanting
to
approach
chervita
about
potentially
using
our
bi-weekly
committee
for
those
check-ins.
N
We
haven't
had
an
opportunity
to
have
that
conversation
yet
so
we're
having
it
on
the
Deus
right
now,
but
I
I
I,
actually
would
prefer
it
to
be
in
a
public
venue.
I,
don't
have
any
intention
of
keeping
this
some
sort
of
private
secret
conversation.
I
think
what
we
should
maybe
do
here
now
with
the
Paul
massano
motion
is
consider.
What
is
the
right
venue
for
these
these
check-ins,
because
I
think
regular
check-ins
make
sense.
N
I
think
bi-weekly
makes
sense
if
people
feel
that's
too
frequent,
maybe
monthly,
but
I
would
suggest
we
vote
down
this
amendment
and
then
propose
either
a
bi-weekly
check-in
for
PHS
If.
The
vice
chair
would
prefer
not
to
have
that
in
committee.
Maybe
we
could
utilize
cows,
so
all
members
could
have
an
opportunity
to
at
least
receive
that
update,
if
not
contribute
to
the
work.
So
I
would
suggest
we
vote
down
this
amendment
and
then
I
would
I
would
once
this
amendment
well
either
passes
or
fails.
N
I
would
be
happy
to
make
an
amendment
to
suggest
like
a
cow,
bi-weekly
check-in.
J
Councilmember
Chavez
council
president
Jenkins
I
just
want
to
add
a
few
comments.
I
think
I
think
throughout
the
whole
year,
we've
noticed
that
this
Council
has
lost
a
lot
of
power
to
do
any
legislative
work.
I
think
the
gist
of
why
me
and
councilman
truck
tire
actually
added
those
bi-weekly
updates
initially,
is
because
we
don't
have
a
legislative
Department.
We
don't
have
staff
that
works
on
policy
with
us
and
I.
Think
that
is
the
bigger
issue
with
all
of
this
that
we
have
to
insert
ourselves
into
a
legislative
directive.
J
So
we
can
get
these
briefings,
I
wouldn't
call
them
private
I
would
call
them
making
sure
that
we,
as
the
authors
of
this
legislation
of
this
legislative
directive,
have
the
power
to
at
least
move
the
policy
that
we
want
to
move
that
our
constituents
asked
us
to
move
that
our
constituents
asked
and
elected
us
to
move.
That
is
the
reason
why
we
did
that
and
if
we
don't
have
a
legislative
Department
that
is
functional,
that
is,
staff
that
actually
is
going
to
do
the
work
for
our
constituents
of
Minneapolis.
Then
what
is
our
job?
O
Thank
you,
madam
president.
I
think
customer
council
member
Paul
massano
made
a
good
point
for
not
having
a
private
updates
or
meetings,
but
I
do
want
to
hear.
D
O
She
would
like
to
suggest
to
go:
councilmember
wansley
did
counter
I
believe
motion
to
go
to
Public,
Health
and
I.
Think
that's
a
great
idea.
We
I
do
like
to
hear
because
remember
Vita
for
her
opinion
on
that.
Thank
you.
G
He
do
it.
Thank
you.
I
first
want
to
say
this
is
a
really
good
amendment.
I,
don't
know
why
we're
fighting
about
this.
This
is
good.
This
is
something
that
we
probably
all
agree
is
long
overdue.
You
know
I
feel
like
we're
getting
caught
up
in
the
weeds
here
about
something
that
I
am
so
happy
that
councilmember,
Ellison
and
I
were
able
to
talk
through
this
work.
It
out,
get
it
back
into
PHS.
That
was
my
major
concern.
You
know
the
timelines
with
the
bi-weekly
I.
G
Do
not,
as
the
chair
of
PHS
I
have
worked
hard
with
staff
to
get
my
agenda
in
order
for
the
year.
I
would
not
support
bi-weekly
updates
in
PHS
I
support.
Vice
president
Paul
massano's,
Amendment
and
I
also
support
the
opportunity.
Maybe
we
have
something
quarterly
in
PHS
updates
for
all
of
us
and
every
single
one
of
you
are
welcome
to
join
PHS
anytime.
It's
an
open
invitation.
You
are
more
than
welcome
to
join
I
promise.
I
won't
say
you're,
not
on
the
committee.
G
You
don't
belong
here,
so
it's
it's
for
all
of
us.
If,
if
it
goes
to
Cal
I
know
we're
all
there,
but
again
it
belongs
in
PHS
you're
welcome
to
join
us.
It's
a
good
Amendment.
This
is
good
work.
There
may
be
policy
changes
that
come
through
this
and
I
feel
like
the
best
way
for
me
to
manage
it
as
the
chair
is
through
my
committee.
Thank
you.
R
I
N
D
I
R
Yeah
I
think
I
think
that's
I
think
that's
reasonable.
I
was
I'm
wondering
if
you
would
be
amenable
to
change
your
Amendment
just
to
say
just
for
us
to
say
right
after
the
March
29th
deadline
provide
quarterly
updates
to
PHS.
That
way
we
sort
of
build
in
a
little
bit
of
reassurance
about
when
folks
will
be
coming
back.
R
You
know.
We
know
that
this
information
is
going
to
be
ongoing.
We
know
that
we're
going
to
be
collecting
this
ongoing
and
you
know
I
know
that
there's
if
we
could
build
in
a
little
bit
of
a
of
reassurance
that
we
all
get
busy
departments
get
busy
of
a
little
bit
of
reassurance
that
will
get
regular
report
backs
that
way.
R
I
If
I
may,
council,
president
council
member
Ellison
I,
believe
it
has
that
Assurance,
because
it
does
say
that
we
they
will
be
reporting
to
public
health
and
safety
at
the
latest
March
29th.
We
give
regular
updates
through
audit
committee
on
all
of
the
issues
around
off
duty.
Actually,
so
that's
another
place
to
go
to
have
heard
regular
updates,
so
I,
don't
think
that
that's
necessary,
but
I
also
see
council
member
Vita
nodding
her
head
in
agreement
that
we
will.
I
You
know
it's
something
that
the
chair
of
a
committee
can
ask
at
Agenda
settings
that
they
would
like
a
presentation
on
such
and
such
and
I
am
trusting
and
willing
to
have
council
member
Vita
make
sure
that
this
comes
to
completion.
You
know
we
talk
about
honest
conversations
that
was
one
of
the
things
brought
up
in
Pogo
committee
and
I
mean
had
there
been
a
conversation
even
with
me
about
this
off-duty
work.
I
I
could
have
explained
how
I
could
have
explained
where
we've
gotten
on
all
of
these
different
audit
committee
things
without
even
the
need
to
go
back
and
look
at
different
audit
committee
meetings.
So
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
I
I
think
probably
MPD
has
to
come
back
and
explain
the
whole
point
of
why
we're
interested
in
this
is
because
we
don't
have
data
of
a
fiscal
analysis
of
off-duty
work
like
that
is
kind
of
our
Point
collectively
as
a
body
so
they're
in
the
process
success
of
an
RFP.
I
It
would
be
nice
to
know
where
they
are
in
this
process
of
doing
that
to
be
able
to
get
scheduling
in-house.
This
also,
very,
very
importantly,
would
require
a
change
to
our
Police
contract,
and
that
is
also
something
that
is
in
process,
so
I
don't
think
it
is
necessary
and
I
trust,
council
member
Vita
to
manage
this
is
one
of
our
priorities.
Thank
you.
Thank.
A
You
all
right
moving
on
I,
think
next
and
Q
is
councilmember
Johnson.
Thank.
B
You,
madam
president,
and
I,
agree
with
this
palmisano
motion.
I
also
recognize
that
there
is
a
precedent
from
the
past
I
think
it's
a
bad
precedent.
I
think
it
slipped
through
I
think
you
know
we're
talking
about
people's
different
styles
up
here
of
how
they
work,
particularly
with
staff
but
I'll
just
say
from
my
own
experience.
I
have
never
had
any
problem
whatsoever
if
I
have
questions
reaching
out
to
staff
and
especially
about
something
coming
before
committee
and
them
providing
an
answer.
I
mean
it
might
not
happen.
The
same
day
I
asked
the
question.
B
It
might
take
a
few
days.
It
might
take
a
week,
but
usually
we
can
get
answers
from
staff.
In
fact,
there's
a
lot
of
work
we've
been
able
to
do
that.
We
haven't
had
to
formally
motion
for
we've
just
asked
staff
to
do
it.
You
know
a
lot
of
people
are
watching
on
YouTube
right
now.
How
do
you
think
that
happened?
That's
because
my
office
reached
out
built
buy-in
with
staff
to
get
them
to
agree
to
do
that.
B
So
I
would
just
say
you
know
that's
one
example,
but
I
would
just
say
you
know
just
work
with
staff
and
and
we
don't
need
to
micromanage
them
and
have
them
now
come
even
if
they
don't
necessarily
have
a
significant
update
every
two
weeks
and
certainly
not
privately
so
I
think
it
makes
sense
if
there
are
going
to
be
any
regular
updates.
That
goes
to
the
committee,
but
I
would
even
say.
Why
is
that
needed
when
you
can
just
ask?
How
are
things
going
with
this
and
that's
what
we
do
on
a
lot
of
things?
B
We
had
this
last
cycle.
A
great
3-1-1
presentation
come
before
the
public
works
and
infrastructure
committee.
That
was
because
we
requested
a
staff
and
I
had
like
three
meetings
with
them
to
ask.
You
know:
how's
it
going
and
help
shape
the
direction
of
that
and
get
you
know,
answers
that
we
were
looking
for
in
that.
So
I,
you
know,
I
just
think.
Let's
not
have
the
Dynam
is
my
personal
opinion,
my
two
cents.
We
had
a
dynamic
in
a
previous
term
that
was
contentious
oftentimes
with
staff
and,
let's
really
work
to
collaborate.
B
H
You,
madam
president,
I,
do
want
to
highlight
one
of
the
reasons
why
we
also
included
this
language
and
follow
press
presidents
around
this.
It's
also
acknowledging
the
reality
that,
while
some
of
our
season
or
even
new,
you
know,
council
members
here
might
have
been
able
to
develop
strong
relationships
with
staff.
I
want
to
know
that
is
not
uniform.
That
is
not
Universal.
H
So
this
is
the
opportunity
to
try
to
move
forward
that
collaboration
when,
on
many
occasions,
I
know
I
know
of
where
staff
has
not
been
responsive
to
requests
from
some
council
members
to
move
work
forward.
So
I
do
want
to
acknowledge.
This
is
actually
grounded
in
the
reality
of
how
staff
Dynamics
work
and
in
the
reality
that
not
everyone
has
uniform
relationships
with
staff
that
some
of
you
all
have
been
able
to
do
so.
I
do
come
in.
H
You
know:
council,
member,
Chuck,
Tai
and
council
member
Chavez,
who
worked
with
also
Council,
vice
president
to
form
the
very
legislative
directive
guy
that
we
are
basing
this
directive
off,
of
which
I
think
they
included
that
as
a
protective
measure.
So
I
just
want
to
highlight.
H
There's
also
that
rationale
behind
this
and
I
would
like
to
just
see
this
be
taken
up
with
the
broad
support
that
it
seems
to
have
this
item
and
also
just
procedurally
move
this
forward,
and
secondly,
too
I
do
want
to
know
if
we
put
a
quarterly
update
on
this.
That
means
it
expires
by
the
time
of
this
deadline,
which
defeats
the
purpose
of
the
deadline.
So
it
makes
sense
that
we
will
want
regular
updates
to
make
sure
that
our
staff
are
ready
to
present
by
the
deadline
which
again
I.
Have
that
experience.
H
Where
we've
put
deadlines,
we've
tried
to
meet
with
staff,
they
were
not
responsive
and
the
next
thing
you
know
we
don't
have
a
presentation,
so
we're
also
trying
to
prevent
that.
We
want
to
be
able
to
be
supportive
and
work
with
our
staff
in
good
faith
to
make
sure
that
the
presentation
or
the
information
that's
being
requested-
comes
before
committee,
so
that
we
can
do
the
work
that
we
need
to
do
on
the
committee
body
to
deliver
policy
outcomes
on
behalf
of
our
constituents.
H
That's
all
that
we're
trying
to
do
and
I
feel
like
this
has
become
a
major
deflector
of
to
that
work.
We
are
just
trying
to
have
transparency
around
it
and
have
it
be
Advanced,
and
it
seems
like
it's
great
that
we
have
consensus
to
do
that
in
PHS.
I
would
really
like
us
to
move
forward
with
that
path.
E
D
D
F
A
R
Of
thank
you,
madam
president.
I
I
didn't
support
the
amendment,
but,
as
amended,
I
still
think
that
this
is
a
an
incredible
step
forward
that
we're
taking
here
and
I
I
hope
that
this
portion
of
the
amendment
can
can
be
maybe
less
discussed
and
hopefully
unanimous
unanimously
supported.
You
know
again.
I'm
I
think
that
there's
this
is
such
good
work.
I.
R
Think
that
there's
probably
a
number
of
us
who
who
are
going
to
want
to
add
our
names
to
this
and
and
just
want
to
remind
folks
that
I
definitely
would
want
to
extend
that
invite
to
the
chair
and
vice
chair
of
of
PHS,
if
they're,
if
they're
amenable
to
that
and
anyone
else,
and
so
I
still
think
that
this
is
incredible.
Work
as
amended
and
I
think
that
the
the
points
by
councilmember,
Johnson
and
Paul
massano
are
well
taken.
R
We
can
make
those
requests,
even
without
it
being
written
in
stone
here.
So
that's
all
I
hope.
My
colleagues
can
support
this.
A
Thank
you,
councilmember
Allison
customer
Payne.
N
Think
about
him,
president
y'all,
to
reiterate
that
I
will
definitely
take
you
up
on
that
request
and
would
like
to
be
a.
N
On
the
amendment
and
yeah
I
agree,
we
don't
need
to
be
this.
Isn't
you
know?
I
voted
no
against
the
amendment,
because
I
thought
we
could
have
a
different
type
of
check-in,
but
I
think
we
also.
This
is
two
months
away
and
I
and
I'm.
You
know
hopeful
that
we
will
be
able
to
have
a
really
positive,
constructive
collaborative
working
relationships
as
we
get
to
that
final
presentation.
So.
A
Yeah
thanks,
everybody
and
I
will
be
really
brief.
Thank
you,
councilmember
Wesley,
for
bringing
forward
this
legislative
directive
and
for
amending
it
to
to
Really,
send
it
to
the
the
appropriate
committee.
A
This
is
this
is
work.
I
mean
this
is
not
new
work.
I
I
just
want
to
be
real
clear
about
that.
It
has
been
going
on
for
quite
some
time.
I
think
the
one
of
the
biggest
issues
is
that
there
is
this
cloak
of
just.
A
I,
don't
I
can't
even
say
disinformation
because
there's
no
information,
we
don't
we
don't
know
the
answers
to
these
questions
and
I,
don't
think
they're
gonna
magically
appear
in
in
every
two
weeks,
but
that
being
said,
we
need
to
understand
what
is
going
on
with
overtime,
how
it's
being
processed,
who
is
accessing
it,
how
much
money
they
are
making
and
particularly
given
the
the
the
decrease
in
in
Staffing
and
MPD.
It
is
critical
that
we
understand
and
and
to
be
clear,
we're
not
necessarily
talking
about
sincere
over
time
we're
talking
about
off-duty.
S
A
Here
so,
and
and
as
the
amendment
in
the
legislative
director
stated
so
I
am
happy
to
support
this
and
I'm
pretty
sure
that
all
of
my
other
colleagues
are
in
support
of
this
as
well,
so
see
no
further
discussion
clerk.
Please
call
the
world.
F
Madam
president,
before
I
do
just
for
clarity.
I
heard
several
people
say
that
they
want
to
be
out
as
co-authors
and
I
wanted,
to
give
one
last
opportunity
for
others.
I
have
relatively
obviously
as
the
primary
author
also
council,
members,
Allison,
Goodman
and
Payne.
Were
there
others,
reignville
Vita.
A
I
will
be
a
co-author
of
the
original
author
is
amenable.
F
D
D
F
F
J
A
Thank
you
so
remember
Chavez
I'm,
just
what
is
that
item
number
five.
F
So
Madam
president,
if
there's
not
a
separate
vote
required
on
number
five,
we
would
be
voting
on
the
Pogo
report.
Items
number
two
and
three
and
then
five
through
the
remainder.
A
Thank
you,
colleagues.
We
are
now
voting
on
the
Pogo
committee
report.
A
H
Am
also
number
five.
F
K
F
Carl,
unless
there's
any
objection,
we
can
change
the
outcome
to
ten
eyes
and
three
Nays
on
item
number.
Five.
A
Wonderful
that
report
is
adopted
and
finally,
we
have
the
report
from
the
public
works
and
infrastructure
committee.
That
report
will
be.
A
G
Thank
you.
Madam
president.
The
public
health
and
safety
committee
is
bringing
forward
two
items
that
it
is
recommended
for
approval
item.
One
is
authorizing
the
police
department

into
a
mutual

contract

the
city

Saint
Paul
in
the
event
of
an
emergency
and
item,
two
is
approving
an
appointment
to
the
public
health
advisory
committee.
I
move
for
approval
of
these
items.
F
A
Carries
and
that
report
is
adopted
and
finally
now
we
have
the
report
of
our
Public

infrastructure

Thank.
B
You,
madam
president,
finally,
the
Public
Works
infrastructure
committee
is
bringing
forward
five
items
today.
First,
is
a
right-of-way

The

The

B
The
fourth
item
is
Hennepin

South
streetscape
project
cost
estimate
in
setting
a

and
item
number.
Five

and
Pillsbury

South
bridges
over
the
Midtown
Greenway
I
will
go
ahead
and
move
all
items
on
the
committee
report.
A
Thank
you,
councilmember
Johnson
and
chair
Johnson
has
moved
that
community's
report.
Is
there
any
discussion?
D
D
F
A
And
Carries
that
report
is
adapted
and
that
completes
our
reports
from
our
standing
committees.
Next,
we
have
introduction
and
referral
calendar
first
person
to
notice
by
council
members
wanzalee,
Chavez
and
Osman.
A
We
will
be
introducing
and
giving
first
reading
to
the
subject
matter
of
an
ordinance
amending
title
13
of
the
code
to
amend
Provisions,
to
expand
worker
protections,
which
will
be
referred
to
the
business
inspections,
housing
and
zoning
committee
in
the
next
cycle.
Second
item
is
a
motion
from
myself
and
Council.
A
Are
there
any
questions
from
my
colleagues,
council,
member
wansley.
H
Thank
you,
madam
president.
I
just
want
to
speak
to
the
transportation
Rideshare
worker
protections
ordinance,
so
I
just
wanted
to
take
a
moment
and
talk
about
how
excited
I
am
to
move
this
work
forward.
I'm.
Actually,
just
this
past
week
we
had
a
great
meeting
with
other
council
members
and
staff
from
various
departments
in
the
city
about
next
steps,
we're
also
continuing
to
work
with
the
drivers
and
also
our
learning
from
experts
in
Seattle
and
Chicago,
who
are
also
taking
actions
to
win
worker
protections
for
Rideshare
drivers.
H
I
feel
so
confident
that
Minneapolis
can
also
move
forward
and
pass
some
of
the
strongest
worker
protections
for
these
specific
segments
of
our
workers
in
the
country
and
I
really
look
forward
to
working
with
all
my
colleagues
to
make
this
happen.
So
I
just
wanted
to
share
that.
A
Thank
you,
councilmember
Wesley
next
in
queue
is
Council.
Vice
president
promisson.
I
Thank
you,
madam
president.
I
just
wanted
to
quickly
explain
to
our
colleagues
why
we
needed
to
amend
this
previous
introduction.
This
is
something
that
we've
carried
over
since
last
term.
We
needed
some
extra
help
in
the
city
clerk's
office
and
with
other
resources
around
the
organization
to
try
and
effectuate
and
move
forward
our
our
overhaul,
our
evolution
of
our
boards
and
commissions.
I
As
a
reminder,
we
have
57
boards
and
commissions
in
our
city,
Enterprise
that
engages
over
700
volunteers
to
come
and
participate
on
them
and
we'd
like
to
make
them
more
consistent,
we'd
like
to
make
help
them
reduce
barriers,
we'd
like
to
make
sure
that
the
output
of
their
time
goes
somewhere
meaningful
to
that
end.
We
previously
saved
this
from
the
last
terms
work.
But
now
this
added
new
chapter
is
because
of
our
government
restructure.
This
new
chapter
was
created
and
left
I.
I
Think
I'd,
say
blank
to
allow
for
this
to
be
in
our
new
government,
restructure
and
ordinance
in
an
important
way.
So
I
just
wanted
to
explain
that.
That's
why
we're
adding
this
new
chapter
it's
currently
empty,
but
this
is
where
we
feel
it
should
logically
go
when
it's
ready
to
come
forward.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you,
Council
vice
president,
and
see
no
further
discussion
clerk.
Please
call
the.

the
next
cycle.
Next
is
resolutions
and
colleagues,
we
have
two
honorary
resolutions
that
were
read
earlier
this
morning
at
the
beginning
of
the
meeting.
Are
there
any
further
comments
from
my
colleagues.
K
A
There's
a
motion
in
proper.
Second,
please
call
the
wrong
councilmember.
D
A
There
are
13
eyes
that
carries
in
that
resolution.
Those
resolutions
have
been
adopted.
Next
we
have
unfinished
business
colleagues.
This
is
a
resolution
amending
the
appointment
of
council
members
to
boards
and
commissions
for
an
Amendment
to
a
point
council
member
Koski
to
the
Planning
Commission,
replacing
council,
member
rainfield
and
I
do
want
to
publicly
thank
council
member
Koski
for
being
willing
to
to
step
into
this
role.
A
However,
you
know
I
I
want
to
state
that
she
has
expressed
some
some
concerns
about
her
ability
to
be
able
to
fulfill
those
duties,
and
so
I
will
be
coming
to
other
council
members
and
asking
if
folks
are
able
to
step
into
this
role
on
the
Planning
Commission
in
the
coming
weeks.
But
I
move
approval
of
this
resolution
as
it
stands
today
and
would
entertain
any
discussion.
B
A
Q
Thank
you,
madam
chair
I,
also
want
to
thank
councilman
murkowski
for
agreeing
to
take
on
this
role.
I
also
want
to
thank
councilmember
rainville,
who
has
done
this
job
for
us
for
an
entire
year
attending
essentially
one
evening
meeting
a
week
and
their
long
meetings,
and
they
take
a
lot
of
time,
and
it
is
a
major
commitment
and
I
have
looked
at
whether
or
not
it
would
be
possible
for
the

Colleagues,

all
of
our
all
the
items
of
business
on
our
agenda
and
I'll.
S
Thank
you,
madam
chair
I,
just
want
to
give
a
really
big
shout
out
to
our
Public
Works
staff,
the
snow
emergency
that
we're
under
the
whole
snow
removal
they've
been
dealing
with
that
tirelessly,
whether
it's
the
snow
issue
or
the
trash,
pickup
and
I
want
to
publicly
acknowledge
their
hard
work
and
thank
them
so
much
on
a
second
level.
I
I
did
have
a
health
emergency
last
week,
where
I
had
some
surgery
and
the
care
that
I
received
from
the
healthcare
workers
at
Methodist
office.
S
Hospital
I
want
to
acknowledge
that,
especially
the
nurses,
whether
it
was
the
emergency
room,
the
operating
room
or
in
recovery,
the
care
that
I
got
there
and
it
made
me
realize
how
important
that
is
of
that.
We
should
all
have
that
type
of
health
care.
I
know
it's
a
national
level,
but
we
need
to
understand
from
everybody
in
this
country
how
important
Healthcare
is
so.
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
A
Thank
you
councilmember
rainfield,
and
we're
all
glad
that
you're
back
and
we
know
that
we
all
need
access
to
health
care
in
our
Society,
probably
in
the
form
of
single-payer
Healthcare
councilmember.
H
Wansley,
thank
you,
madam
president.
I
just
wanted
to
take
a
moment
to
honor
the
lives
of
three
people
who
were
murdered
by
police.
In
the
last
few
weeks.
Manuel
Tehran
was
defending
the
South
River
Forest
in
Atlanta,
from
being
bulldozed
and
converted
into
a
police
training
facility,
also
known
as
cop
city
state
trooper
shot
and
killed
them.
They
were
26
years
old,
Tyree
Nichols
was
beaten
to
death
by
police
in
Memphis
Tennessee
after
being
pulled
over
for
alleged
reckless
driving.
H
He
was
29
years
old
and
then
Keenan
Anderson
was
a
teacher
and
father
who
asked
the
police
for
help.
After
being
in
a
traffic
incident,
he
was
beaten
and
tasted
death
by
Los
Angeles
police
in
the
street.
While
saying
they're
trying
to
George
Floyd
me,
he
was
31
years
old,
so
in
spirit
of
Black
History
Month
that
we
honor
today
I
do
want
to
take
a
moment
of
silence
to
also
honor
these
three
individuals
they
are
and
were
younger
than
I,
am
and
we're
not
doing
anything
wrong
when
Police
murdered
them
and
as
I
honored.
H
These
three
young
people
lives
I,
see
their
deaths
as
as
a
recommitment
to
myself
to
the
struggle
against
police
brutality.
So
I
would
just
like
to
take
a
moment
of
silence,
because
so
many
of
our
people
across
the
U.S
has
been
grieving.
The
lives
of
these
beautiful
three
people
who
did
not
deserve
to
meet
that
type
of
end.
O
Thank
you,
madam
president.
I
want
to
let
the
residents
of
Minneapolis
know
that
Winter
Park
restriction,
announcement
that
took
place
yesterday
in
in
the
City
of
Minneapolis
I
will
be
effective
tonight
at
9.
00
pm
understand
the
safety
concern
that
have
caused
our
Public
Works
to
make
that
decision,
but
I
find
it
incredible,
incredibly
disappointed
or
six
one
of
the
most
impacted
words
in
in
the
city.
O
When
it
comes
to
parking
decisions,
there
are
a
lot
of
renters
without
garage
or
alley
parking
who
will
need
to
find
a
place
to
park
in
the
more
Suburban
neighborhood
of
Minneapolis
with
garages
and
other
car
storage
spaces.
This
decision
might
not
be
a
problem,
the
neighborhoods
of
Ward
6.
It
could
mean
a
multiple
block,
walk
to
the
park
to
park
your
car
after
a
long
day
of
work,
I
apologize
to
my
residents
and
we're
trying
to
do
everything
we
can
to
work
with
the
public
works
and
hopefully
address
this
issue.
I
A
Absolutely
with
that
colleagues,
I
I
do
want
to
just
really
acknowledge
the
emotional
energy
that
we
have
all
expended
today,
and
you
know
the
decisions
that
we
make
here
on
this
body
are
really
difficult
decisions,
every
single
one
of
them
and
every
decision
that
we
make
every
vote
that
we
make
is
going
to
disappoint
somebody
and
make
some
people
very
happy.
A
I
I.
Thank
you
all
for
standing
in
this
storm,
that
is
the
the
city
council
and
standing
up
and
fighting
on
behalf
of
the
residents
of
this
city.
