Description
No description was provided for this meeting.
If this is YOUR meeting, an easy way to fix this is to add a description to your video, wherever mtngs.io found it (probably YouTube).
A
A
If
you
want
to
chime
in,
you
can
chime
in
I'm,
we'll
probably
just
have
a
pretty
open
discussion
nathan,
I'm
hoping
that
you'll
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
website.
I've
I've
read
the
what
the
information
you
provided
about
the
link
to
the
justice
website,
so
I'm
hoping
you'll
chime
in
with
some
of
that,
and
I'm
expecting
that
the
rest
of
you
have
lots
to
add.
So
I'm
gonna
mute
justice.
Do
you
want
to
say
a
few
words?
A
C
C
I
am
well
aware
that
for
us
to
get
to
our
goals
that
it
not
only
needs
to
be
the
city
behind
this,
but
also
the
second
largest
carbon
emitter,
which
is
the
university
of
missouri
kansas
city.
So
we
need
everyone
at
the
table
if
we
want
to
get
to
a
lower
lower
carbon
output
for
the
kansas
city
overall,
so
kind
of.
Currently
I
wanted
to
talk
about
how
the
public,
and
even
the
black
and
brown
community
view
sustainability
here
in
kansas
city.
C
A
lot
of
them
do
believe
in
it,
especially
the
younger
generation,
the
system
change
and
how
we
do
business.
But-
and
I
I've
talked
to
a
lot
of
pastors
and
people
in
the
community
about
this
meeting
throughout
this
week,
and
one
thing
they
are
worried
about
is
through
various
times
in
our
country:
we've
transitioned
or
had
some
form
of
revolution,
or
that
could
be
through
the
civil
rights
area,
the
industrial
revolution
and
many
examples
like
that.
C
But
what
worries
them
is
making
sure
that
when
we
do
transition,
the
system
is
just
for
everyone,
and
that
is
not
just
benefiting
one
select
group
or
one
select
community.
I
think
that
when
we
transition,
it
is
an
opportunity
to
equalize
the
playing
field
for
everyone,
because
it
is
something
new
and
it
should
be
something
that
lifts
all
communities
of
color
up
and
then
also.
On
the
other
hand,
if
things
continue
to
get
worse
in
our
country
and
for
our
planet,
it
will
be
low
income
in
communities
of
color
that
will
suffer
first.
C
I
think
we
all
can
agree
on
that
here.
That
and
that-
and
we
even
see
it
here
with
kobe-
that
it
is
poorer
communities
and
communities
of
color
that
are
being
hit
the
hardest,
so
making
sure
that
we
are
all
on
the
same
team
and
that
we're
transitioning
together
and
making
sure
that
every
person
has
a
seat
at
the
table.
C
So
I
I
want
to
open
it
up.
I
do
have
two
more
points,
but
if
anyone
has
any,
I
didn't
want
to
lecture
anyone,
because
I
probably
have
the
least
experience
here
but
and
know
that
even
on
the
community,
a
lot
of
people
have
respect
for
this
commission
and
we
are
I'll
speak
for
the
whole
move.
A
lot
of
those
that
are
leaving
the
protest
that
we
are
very
thankful
for
the
unanimous
motion
to
write
a
letter
to
city
council
saying
you're
all
support
for
the
black
lives
matter
movement.
D
Well,
justice,
on
behalf
of
the
emc,
wanted
to
thank
you
again
for
for
coming
to
speak
with
us
about
this.
One
question
that
that
I
had
is
you
know
beyond
the
the
efforts
around
police
reform.
I
know
that
there
is
a
broader
movement
to
try
to
bring
more
awareness
to
issues
of
structural
or
individual
racism
within
various
movements
and
obviously
that
extends
to
environmentalism
and
sustainability.
C
We
saw
that
with
the
dropping
of
charges,
the
renaming
of
jc
nichols
fountain
and
parkway
we're
now
seeing
police
reform.
We're
now
seeing
different
disparities
now
being
talked
about,
because
I
do
agree-
and
I
I've
been
saying
it
for
years
and
years
that
black
lives
matter,
but
our
institutions
do
not
say
black
lives
matter,
that
is,
housing,
disparity,
disparities
in
education,
transportation
and
access,
economic
mobility,
food
insecurity
and
so
on
and
so
forth.
C
I
think-
and
this
is
something
I
stress
when
we're
talking
about
advancing
transportation
in
black
and
brown
areas-
we
just
don't
need
to
do
it
to
do
it.
I
think
the
standard
has
to
be
set
higher,
that
when
we
talk
about
transportation,
it
needs
to
be
economically
sound
and
and
for
the
environment,
transportation.
C
Or
if
we
talk
about
new
businesses
in
the
area,
we
just
we
just
shouldn't
just
throw
up
businesses,
they
need
to
have
higher
standards
on
on
how
we
do
business-
and
this
can
be
said
throughout.
All
of
that
that
we
need
to
have
a
higher
setting.
I
mean
a
higher
standard
with
how
we
go
about
doing
business.
To
I
mean
address
all
these
socio-economic
disparities
in
our
community.
C
I
think
where
environmental
groups
have
fallen
short
is
seeing
that
all
of
these
disparities
and
all
of
these
problems
are
interconnected.
They
are
all
apart.
They
they
all
work
with
each
other
and
they're
all
intertwined,
because
you
look
at,
for
example,
on
whichever
side
of
truth
you
live.
You
have
a
different
life
expectancy,
but
then
also
with
that,
you
may
have
a
higher
rate
of
blood
pressure
diabetes
or
when
you
look
at
the
other
side,
housing
and
the
median
income
for
housing
can
lower.
Then
you
also
look
at
that.
C
There's
less
access
to
food
and
there's
also
less
access
to
equitable
education.
It's
all
this
is
it's
going
to
take
a
lot
of
policy
change
and
it
can't
be
just
kind
of
a
one
policy
fits
all.
We
need
to
be
very
aware
that
this
this
is.
This
is
a
problem
that
is
all
over
the
community
and
when
we
talk
about
more
sustainable
gains
and
policy
change,
it
needs
to
be
one
that
addresses
a
lot
of
these
disparities.
C
I
think,
even
on
truce
we're
seeing
a
lot
of
economic
development,
but
with
that
that's
a
good
thing,
but
we
also
need
to
be
well
aware
of
gentrification
in
kansas
city
and
that's
when
we
also
need
to
look
at
the
county
level
if
there
was
some
form
of
rent
ceiling
that
wouldn't
allow
for
landlords
to,
I
mean
push
out
communities
of
colors.
It's
just
stuff
like
that
is,
although
change
is
a
good
thing.
I
I
love
that
we're
addressing
this
and
making
policy
change.
C
C
Now
is
the
time
to
have
policies
around
body
cams
before
it
then
be
creates
a
problem,
and
then
we
have
to
address
it.
That
could
be
said
about
any
of
this.
We
need
to
address
it
while
we're
still
talking
about
it,
but
that's
what
I
feel
is
just
where
we've
fallen
short.
Sorry,
if
I
talk
a
lot
too,
where
are
we
falling
short
seeing
that
all
of
this
is
interconnected
and
that's
that's
a
part
of
a
community?
That's
all
these
policies.
All
these
problems
are
connected
in
some
way
or
some
form.
C
So
thinking
big
picture.
It's
not.
I
know
we
have
groups,
love
them
to
death,
we're
at
sunrise
movement
and
they
just
kind
of
fall
in
environmental
groups.
So
we
have
the
kc
tennis
they're
just
in
housing,
and
I
wish
that
everyone
would
work
together
and
see
that
all
of
our
policies
are
connected
and
it's
it's
a
part
of
a
bigger
system.
It's
it's
thinking,
big
picture,
how
we
can
all
work
together
and
it's
like,
for
example,
if
we
have
housing
reform,
then
we
need
to
make
sure
that
that
housing
is
sustainable.
E
Justice
yeah:
this
is
jerry
schechter
in
the
office
of
environmental
quality.
The
comments
that
you're
making
about
seeing
that
kind
of
interconnectedness
are
not
new
arguments
by
any
means.
I
came
up
through
vietnam
and
and
civil
rights
movement,
and
everybody
at
that,
and
then
was,
was
talking
about
people's
inability
to
get
together
and
steal,
bigger
pictures
and
how
one
thing
affected
another
from
your
perspective.
Now,
how
do
we
address
that
kind
of
issue?
C
I
think
I
think-
and
I
appreciate
your
question-
I
think
it's
realizing
that
this
is
there's
a
greater
problem
out
there,
that
a
lot
of
these
disparities
can
be
solved
with
a
lot
of
us
working
together
and
that's
even
with
the
black
lives
matter
movement.
It
not
only
brought
out
people
of
color
communities
of
color
brought
out
heterosexual
people
brought
out
the
lgbtq
community.
It
brought
out
young
old
people
that
lived
here
in
the
city
that
lived
in
the
suburbs.
C
I
think
there
needs
to
be
more
of
a
unifying
message
that
this,
if
one
person's
having
this
problem,
it
should
be
all
of
our
problems
that
there
needs
to
be
more
of
a
community
feel
here
in
kansas
city,
and
I
do
appreciate.
I
think
that
the
movement
has
that
straight
for
everyone,
because
a
lot
of
people
are
speaking
up
on
disparities
that
do
not
at
all
affect
their
own
lives.
C
But
I
think
that
that's,
I
think
allyship
is
absolutely
important
with
that
and
that
that
could
be
said
through
racially
sexual
identification
or
stuff
like
that.
We
just
need
more
people
to
speak
out
and
see
more
of
a
unifying
message.
In
that
anyone's
who's
suffering
in
our
community
that
that
should
be
put
on
us
too,
the
community
to
better
that
so
I'd
say
more
of
just
a
collaborative
and
uniting
environment
and
kind
of
nature
for
everyone.
F
So
justice,
this
is
ben
proffer,
commissioner,
and
I
really
agree
with
you
and
I
think
that
one
of
the
things
that
I
didn't
think
was
necessarily
a
correction
that
we
had
to
make
in
the
minutes
from
the
last
meeting,
but
there's
an
ongoing
kind
of
balance
between
mainstream
environmentalists
that
see
all
of
these
as
like
unified
problems
that
are
interconnected,
and
then
you
get
to
a
place
where
it's
like.
Where
do
you
start
in
the
first
place?
F
You're
you're
trying
to
create
a
situation
in
which
you're
making
progress,
and
so
much
of
the
conversation
with
underserved
and
disenfranchised
communities
is
in
restoring
rights
that
they
didn't
have
previously
and
restoring
financial
and
community
support
that
they
never
had
in
the
first
place.
So
in
and
looking
at
the
information
that
nathan
sent
out
through
the
just
transition
framework
that
we're
going
to
talk
about
a
little
bit
later.
F
It
talks
about
restoring
indigenous
rights
and
land
rights
to
people
who
have
been
disenfranchised
through
the
founding
of
this
country
in
the
first
place,
and
then
I
think
that
you
know,
do
you
have
something
specific
in
terms
of
economic
reparations
or,
in
terms
of
you
know,
a
further
conversation
about
like
how
do
we
help
to
fix
that
situation?
And
how
do
we
protect
the
conversation
from
being
corrupted
by
forces
that
would
like
to
co-opt
it.
C
Yeah
so-
and
this
took
me
a
while-
I
I
even
had
to
educate
myself
and
just
for
kind
of
background
reasons,
my
kind
of
makeup,
so
my
my
father's
african-american
and
native
american
and
then
my
mom's
white
and
pacific,
islander
so
kind
of
from
where
I
stand.
I
feel
that
we
need-
and
this
is
all
go
back
to
what
I
said
at
the
very
beginning.
C
C
Here,
in
kansas
city
I
mean
homeownership
and
having
a
home
is
the
quickest
way
to
build
financial
wealth
for
family
and
the
fact
that
black
and
brown
communities
got
locked
out
of
the
american
dream
because
they
couldn't
have
that
that
has
set
one
community
back,
I
mean
years
and
years
and
decades
and
decades
of
families
haven't
been
able
to
advance
as
much
as
their
white
counterparts
and
that's
why
we
see
the
different
income
as
well,
and
that's
just
a
black
community.
We
could
talk
about
the
indigenous
community.
C
B
C
Very
beginning
why
communities
of
color
and
those
in
the
community
are
very
worried
about
this
is
because
they
see
that
they
are
still
fighting
for
their
rights
and
they
feel
that
all
right
we're
going
to
advance
ourselves
anymore.
Why
they
are
worried.
Is
there
they're
worried
about
being
left
behind
again,
where
one
group
will
advance
even
more
and
communities
of
color
will
not
move
at
all
and
then
there's
then
a
bigger
divide.
C
I
think
that's
what
they're
worried
about
the
most,
and
I
think
that's
why
there
needs
to
be
policy
now
that
addresses
that
before
we
all
move
together,
I
think
simply
I
mean
we
could
move
together
and
then
address
that
later,
but
I
think
now,
in
the
current
day,
we
need
to
make
sure
that
everyone's
on
equal
playing
field-
and
that's,
I
mean
being
well
aware
that
different
communities
are
going
to
need
different
things.
It's
not
it's,
not
equality,
it's
more
equity
and
making
sure
that
different
groups
have
different
resources
and
need
different
resources.
E
G
Best
approach
to
how
to
how
to
achieve
equity
and,
along
with
you
know,
massive
institutional
change
and
policy
change
so
like
help
us
for
just
from
your
you
know
perspective
as
someone
who's
on
the
like.
Looking
at
the
environmental
management
commission
like
how,
how
can
we
help
facilitate
people
you
know
giving
voice
to?
G
What's
will
be
best
to
them?
I
mean
you
look
at
the
makeup
of
the
committee.
It's
not
hard
to
see
that
or
the
commission's
not
hard
to
see
that
we're
predominantly
white
male,
and
I
think
that
one
thing
and-
and
you
know
this
is
something
that
I've
just
had
to
learn
and
educate
myself
on
you
know,
kind
of,
as
as
what
you've
said.
G
One
thing
I
think
that
we've
not
been
well
sort
of
equipped
to
do
is
is
bring
in
people
from
the
east
side
of
kansas
city
to
tell
us
what's
best
for
from
a
policy
perspective
for
us
yeah
or
any
indigenous
people
that
are
residing
in
kansas
city
as
well
like
we
just
are.
We
are
the
lgbtq
community,
you
name
it
like.
That's
not
who
is
coming
to
our
meetings
and
giving
us
input
like
how
can
we
be
better
on
that
front.
C
I
think
and
I'll
start
off,
I
think
one
I'll
say
it
first.
I
think
I
understand.
I
believe
that
representation
matters,
but
what
you
all
are
doing
is
first
realizing
that
there
needs
to
be
representation
at
the
table.
I
think
that's
the
biggest,
because
some
people
don't
even
think
they
think
they're
fine
in
their
current
state,
so
I
think
coming
at
it
with
a
an
open
heart
and
knowing
that
anyone
could
do
better
because
everyone,
no
matter
what
business
or
institution
or
city
you
are,
we
could
always
be
better.
C
I
think
not
only
realizing
that,
but
then
getting
communities
of
color
at
the
table.
I
think
it's
so
important
if
we
get
people
that
are
on
the
other
side
of
truce
or
that
are
black
and
brown
or
indigenous
or
lgbtq,
then
they're
then
going
to
not
only
be
feel
represented
and
see
themselves
in
a
commission
they're
also
going
to
go
back
to
their
network
and
say
hey.
This
is
why
this
is
important.
C
This
is
why
this
policy
change
is
going
to
benefit
our
own
community,
and
this
is
how
and
then
vice
versa
they're
going
to
come
with
their
problems
from
their
community
and
say
hey.
How
do
we
address
this
as
a
as
a
commission,
and
I
truly
believe
that
things
get
get
done
when
everyone's
at
the
table?
I
mean
we
only
know
what
we
know.
So
that's
why
it's
important
to
have
everyone
at
the
table,
but
I
think
I
mean
starting
here.
D
Beyond
you,
obviously
you
are
someone
who
who
is
very
tuned
in
and
very
engaged
with
the
subject.
I
think
part
of
what
what
we
would
want
to
understand,
too
is.
Are
there
additional
groups,
like
I
mean
yes,
like
obviously
reaching
out
just
to
different
parts
of
the
city,
is,
is
helpful,
but
in
from
your
perspective,
do
you
think
that
there
are
particular
groups
that
would
be
more
open
to
not
only
having
conversations
with
us
but
potentially
offering
members
from
within
their
ranks
to
be
part
of
our
group
as
well.
C
I
think
not
only
what
they
could
bring
to
the
table
is
the
experience
of
people
color
to
the
committee,
but
then
also
what
the
commission
could
do
is
also
show
hey.
This
policy
is
going,
it
needs
you,
you
need
to
be
at
the
table,
because
this
policy
is
important
to
the
communities
of
color.
I
think
not
only
it
could
be
a
partnership
and
showing
them
more
importantly,
that
this
is
important
to
you
all,
because
I
know
even
the
urban
league
and
naacp
may
not
see-
and
I
know
a
lot
of
people
like.
C
C
I
believe
that
we
have
to
work
with
everyone
and
that
progress
comes
in
strides.
I
know
that
they
kind
of
want
everything
now
and
they're
not
going
to
settle
for
anything
less
and
it's
that
is
sometimes
not
the
best
kind
of
way
to
go
about
business,
but
understanding
that
and-
and
I
agree
with
them-
and
I
understand
how
they
operate
like
that,
because
we
are
in
a
climate
crisis
and
to
them
it's,
we
can't
wait.
C
We
can't
have
incremental
change,
so
I
do
also
sympathize
with
them,
but
making
sure
that
we
get
a
lot
of
the
younger
youth
and
and
those
who
are
in
that
group
at
the
table.
There
are
some
of
them
that
do
like
seeing
policy
change,
but
a
lot
of
them
are
green
new
deal.
Nothing
else!
That's
it.
When
this,
when
we've
seen
a
lot
of
good
policy,
that's
come
out
of
not
only
this
commission
but
also
the
city.
That
is
the
closest
thing
to
that,
but
it's
like,
I
believe
they
give
you
an
inch.
C
H
H
I
don't
know
45
years,
something
like
that
and
I
don't
see
it
changing
and
I
sit
on
the
commission
and
I'm
so
frustrated.
Sometimes
I
they
all
know
that
I
have
to
rant
every
so
often
because
I
can't
stand
it
and
I
know
a
couple
of
black
commission
members
that
I've
suggested
quit
because
they
were
frustrated
with
the
incremental
change.
H
You
know
who's
better
and
and
we
can
label
a
group
and
and
then
they're
worse
and
then
somebody
else
is
better
and
we
can
divide
the
people.
So
the
people
don't
have
the
sense
enough
to
to
dig
deep
enough
to
find
the
commonality
and
find
out
that
we're
just
being
divided
by
people.
I
mean
look
at
the
companies
that
won't
come
to
town
until
we
pay
them
by
not
giving
them
taxes.
H
H
H
H
C
C
C
If
you
have
a
strong
coalition
of
people,
they
cannot
ignore
your
demands,
because
not
only
are
you
guys,
standing
united,
it's
now
become
everyone's
issue,
so
I
think
that's
why
it's
important
to
have
representation
at
the
table,
because
we
need
to
educate
people
that
this
is
an
issue
for
everyone,
but
then
also
builds
a
stronger
coalition
to
get
things
done.
Why
we've
gotten
a
lot
of
policy
changes
that
this?
Isn't
they
can't
split
us
and
say:
oh,
that's
a
black
issue
or,
oh
that's,
a
that's,
a
easter
truth
issue.
C
I
mean
everything
with
the
black
lives
matter
coalition.
Is
that
they're,
seeing
this
from
everyone?
Every
community
hispanic
black
young
straight
gay,
that
everyone
agrees,
that
this
is
an
issue
and
it's
a
change
and
those
in
power
cannot
ignore
that.
So
I
think
we
need
to
have
that
same
approach
when
it
comes
to
environmental
justice
and
climate
justice
as
well.
I
I
So
with
that,
as
a
background,
what
I'd
like
to
ask
of
you
is
help
us
understand
how
we
engage
all
the
community
of
color
and
the
disadvantaged
section
of
the
community
in
such
a
way
that
they
can
become
participants
and
empowered
to
be
in
that
dialogue
and
learn.
At
the
same
time,
it
you
know,
there's
there's
this
feeling
that
we
were,
and
sometimes
the
commission
is
forcing
this
climate
issue
or
environmental
issue
on
the
community.
I
That
has
no
interest
in
it
because
they
have
higher
needs
like
food
and
health
and
justice
and
access,
and
so
on.
So
give
us
some
insight
in
how
we,
as
the
environmental
management,
commission
or
others
should
engage
the
community
efficiently
and
be
candid
about
the
urgency.
So
we're
all
advocates
for
making
transformational
change.
C
C
I
think
when
we
talk
about
what
happens
after
that,
we
need
to
make
sure
that
the
transition
is
just.
I
think
that
is
kind
of
the
better
and
biggest
opportunity
for
us
to
kind
of
actually
set
out
the
the
playing
field,
and
with
that,
when
we
transition
to
a
just
system,
we
could
I
mean,
put
some
more
benefits
to
a
certain
group
or
really
get
them
up
to
par.
C
I
think
when
we
transition,
we
want
to
make
sure
that
everyone's
on
equal
playing
field,
but
I
agree
that
that
relationships
with
disenfranchised
community,
the
black
and
brown
community
are
going
to
take
time
because
they
they
I
agree
with
you.
They
see
the
urgency
and
education,
criminal,
justice,
reform,
police
reform
and
stuff,
like
that,
I
think
what
we
can
continue
to
do
is
with
us
as
individuals.
C
C
I
don't
know
if
I
gave
you
an
answer,
but
that's
a
tough
question,
because
I
agree
and
I've
I
see
the
urgency
with
reforming
the
system
to
make
sure
that
we
don't
have
a
climate
crisis
and
that
things
truly
become
bad,
because
I
mean
very
very
off
the
record:
no
one's
going
to
be
talking
about
health
care
or
criminal
justice
reform.
Where
we
don't
have
a
plan
anymore,
I
mean
things
are
going
to
be
pulled
back
to
basic
necessity,
food,
water
and
housing.
A
J
B
J
So
how
do
we
provide
whatever
support
is
needed
to
bring
more
people
in
and
see
that
this?
Is
it
the
tenant
movement?
It's
absolutely
the
same
thing.
It's
the
same
thing!
If
you
can't
afford
housing,
if
you
can't
get
good
housing,
it's
not
going
to
be
energy
efficient.
You
won't
be
able
to
stay
there
because
you
won't
be
able
to
afford
your
utilities.
C
I
agree,
I
think
the
best
thing
you
all
could
do
is
continue
to
reach
out
of
hand.
I
mean
people
are
only
going
to
know
what
they
know
and
you
don't
want
to
go
down
the
line
and
people
say
hey.
This
became
a
problem
and
you're
leading
this
and
you
never
contacted
us.
I
think
the
best
thing
you
all
could
do
is
continue
to
reach
a
handout,
and
I
mean
one
day
when
things
change
they
will
reach
back.
C
A
good
example
is
kind
of
our
first
protest
and
the
protests
I
put
on
is
it
brought
out
10
000
about
10
000
people
down
to
the
plaza,
and
a
lot
of
people
criticize
me
is
that
I
didn't
consult
the
naacp
urban,
like
the
many
many
many
groups
that
are
in
civil
rights
or
in
socioeconomic
rights
in
the
community,
but
I
saw
the
urgency
something
had
to
be
done
now.
We
have
to
have
something
talked
about
now,
but
then,
after
the
whole
event,
then
we
sat
down
and
made
sure
that
everyone
was
at
the
table.
C
Well,
we
not
only
had
this
movement
grow,
but
all
right
now
we're
in
closed
door
settings
we're
not
talking
policy.
That's
when
I
then
started
talking
to
the
other
groups.
I
think
when
we
talk
about
the
urgency
and
taking
the
system
changing
I
mean
if
we
see
that
we're
all
educated-
and
we
know
that
then
sometimes
we
have
to.
C
We
have
to
move
without
groups
sometimes-
and
I
know
that
that
sounds
bad
when
I
say
it,
but
that's
why
I
say
more
importantly,
the
day
after
the
revolution,
I
think
we
need
to
be
judged
on
how
and
who's
at
the
table,
then
so
making
sure
that
I
mean
that's.
I
said
the
best
thing
now
is
continuing
to
reach
a
handout,
and
I
mean
when
they
reach
back,
I
mean
educating
them
and
making
sure
that
they
know
that
this
is
their
issue.
C
C
I
think,
continuing
to
reach
a
handout
to
them
and
showing
them
that
everyone
could
change.
Everyone
could
do
better
than
if
they
understand
that
they'll
move
and
move
with
the
times,
if
they're
really
about
what
they
talk
about.
They're,
doing
that's
civil
rights
for
all
people
of
color
and
disenfranchised
communities.
D
I
think
something
else
that's,
and
this
is
more
for
my
fellow
commissioners.
I
think
something
that's
responsibility
for
us
is
it.
We
can't
simply
expect
one
individual
like
justice
to
to
have
all
the
answers
for
us.
Part
of
the
work
for
us
has
to
be
doing
the
reading,
doing
the
work
to
understand
the
perspectives
of
those
who
have
already
been
sort
of
researching
these
things,
bringing
attention
to
these
things
so
like
when
nathan
brought
the
economic
justice
website
to
our
attention.
D
But
for
racism
has
not
been
at
the
forefront,
so
I
I
appreciate
what
justice
is
doing,
but
we
also
have
to
recognize
that
as
much
as
we
can
ask
him,
the
onus
is
also
on
us
to
to
learn
and
to
understand
so
that
when
we're
having
these
conversations,
we're
informed
and
we're
already
able
to
be
on
a
much
closer
wavelength.
So
we're
not
having
to
ask
all
these
questions
of
who
should
we
be
talking
to
or
what
are
the
elements
that
we
should
be?
D
D
I
don't
I
see
one
or
two:
okay,
okay,
I
see
you
nathan
and
mark
and
okay
and
jerry
okay,
so
a
few
of
us
have,
but
I
mean
that's
just
sort
of
one
example
of
one
of
the
things
that
we
have
to
do
in
if
we're
not
going
to
take
the
time
to
engage
with
communities
and
our
work
is
then
our
job.
Our
responsibility
is
to
understand
as
much
from
that
perspective
as
we
possibly
can
to
inform
our
work
and
sort
of
blunt.
A
Well,
I'm
going
to
talk
for
a
minute.
I
appreciate
the
conversation
so
far.
One
of
the
things
that
I'm
concerned
about
is
that
we
find
the
language
to
communicate
the
things
that
we
care
about
and
I
feel
like
we're
too
jargony
we're
too
complex,
we're
not
communicating
clearly
what
we
are
concerned
about.
I
did
think
that
the
just
transition
principles.
B
A
A
I
told
bob
this.
I
escaped
and
read
a
short
book
recently
called
the
story
of
moore
and
it
was
by
a
woman
called
hope,
jaren.
But
it's
a
very
non-jargony
approachable
explanation
of
how
we
got
here
and
it
addresses
marty,
the
greed
and
it
aggressive.
It
addresses
this
wanting
more
and
more,
and
that
more
is
better
and
it's
things
like
that
that
we
need
to
be
able
to
communicate
in
a
simple
way
that
we
create
shared
understanding
about
our
concerns.
C
H
H
I'm
on
facebook-
and
I
sound
off
there
too,
and
it's
I'm
amazed
at
how
many
people
are
finding
conspiracy
under
every
rock
and
inventing
rocks
to
have
conspiracy
under
I
mean,
there's
a
there's,
a
kind
of
a
fear
or
or
inability
to
find
a
center
within
themselves
and
and
they
and
they
they
go
off
in
fantasy
on
stuff.
Now
is
that
all
mental
illness?
H
We
have
a
significant
number
of
people,
we
don't
have
a
majority.
I
don't
think
of
crazy
of
people
who
dip
into
that,
but
we
have
a
significant
number
of
those
people
who
who,
by
our
system
we
have
to
listen
to
and
help
or
or
help
is
it.
You
know
that's
not
looking
at
them
straight
in
the
eye,
that's
looking
down
on
them,
but
they
don't
seem
to
be
able
to
reason
their
way
out
of
what
I
find,
not
logical,
not
reasonable.
H
F
F
Plots
against
them
by
nationalistic
forces,
including
medical
experimentation,
the
flooding
of
different
low
minority
and
groups
who
are
vulnerable
and
those
types
of
conspiracy
theories
are
typically
because
they
have
been
the
subject
of
mistreatment
in
the
past.
There's
another
type
of
conspiracy
theory,
that
is
by
privileged
people,
because
they
don't
want
to
see
themselves
as
culpable
in
a
system
that
is
broken
in
the
first
place.
F
F
C
I
think
why
a
lot
of
communities
of
color
and
even
black
and
brown
communities
do
listen
to
a
lot
of
these
conspiracies
that
are
brought
out
is
because
I
mean
I'll
be
honest,
a
lack
of
funding
for
education
in
black
and
brown
areas.
So
I
mean
years
and
years
of
advancement
and
in
certain
groups
moving
forward
I
mean
they're
going
to
stay
stagnant
and
even
with
this
conversation
on
education,
it's
I've
been
going
through,
went
through
high
school
and
then
about
to
finish
at
umkc.
Because
of
my
education.
C
C
So
if
you
got
what
I
said,
I
know
I
kind
of
went
off,
but
it's
like
it's
we're
trying
to
explain
this
to
people
that
do
not
have
a
lot
of
resources
when
it
comes
to
education
and
how
it
relates
to
them.
They're
only
going
to
be
well
aware
of
what
is
directly
affecting
their
life
and
that's
usually,
what
they're
going
to
eat,
where
they're
going
to
sleep
and
how
they're
going
to
pay
their
bills.
C
C
So
kind
of
next
steps
is-
and
this
is
this
has
to
stay
here
on
this
committee,
but
working
with
the
city
council
to
look
at.
I
think-
and
I
I
truly
believe
this-
that
our
institutions,
for
example
the
kcpd,
is
funded
at
too
much.
I
think
that
a
lot
of
those
those
dollars
could
be
used
to
funding
education,
housing
and
other
disparities,
and
I
I
truly
believe
that
if
you
fund
education,
housing
and
stuff
like
that,
the
role
of
the
police
will
not
be
so
prevalent
in
the
community.
C
We
do
not
talk
about
this
in
the
suburbs,
because
they're
they're
they're
education's
funding,
they
have
housing,
they
have
good
jobs
and
they
I
I
think
that
our
funding
should
be
going
there
and
it's
the
same
with
just
kind
of
how
we
move
and
move
the
city
forward.
When
it
comes
to
environmental
decisions.
I
think
we
need
to
make
that
more
of
an
initiative
than
just
kind
of
short-term
gains.
C
I
think
our
city
operates
too
much
on
short-term
thinking,
instead
of
long-term
thinking
of
how
the
future
of
the
city
and
its
people
are
going
to
operate.
So
that's
kind
of
the
next
thing
for
me
and
kind
of
our
side
of
things,
but
really
making
sure
that
everyone
sees
the
urgency
and
the
connection.
That's
really
what
I've
been
doubling
down
and
talking
to
communities
of
color
and
representatives
from
them
that
this
issue
needs
to
be
an
issue
of
all
of
us
and
that
it
needs
to
be
on
the
table
as
well.
C
C
F
So
justice
just
real
quickly
here
you
know
you
talked
about
the
universal
universality
of
some
of
these
economic
tribulations
that
we've
got
and
it
seems
like
collective
bargaining
and
the
idea
of
revitalizing.
That
is
something
that
has
been
kind
of
like
percolating
inside
the
conversation,
but
it
hasn't
really
gotten
to
the
surface.
C
C
K
K
K
That
that
has
been
submitted
by
the
santa
fe
neighborhood
association,
which
is
an
excellent
proposal
for
housing
rehab.
They
have
about
80
homeowners
that
have
different
needs,
that
they
want
to
see
met
for
their
house
and
it's
a
really
modest
proposal.
What
they're
seeking,
but
a
lot
of
the
things
that
they
want,
do
overlap
towards
what
our
priorities
are
and
then
some
resources
that
you
know
our
group
could
potentially
point
them
to.
K
Besides,
just
the
sales
tax
to
meet
those
needs,
but
the
the
larger
point
I'm
trying
to
make
is,
I
think
we
need
to
reach
out
to
them
individually,
those
neighborhood
groups
and,
I
think,
we'll
be
surprised
by
the
level
of
engagement
we
get
from
them
and
the
level
of
input,
and
I
would
start
with
santa
fe
because
they
have
a
like.
I
said,
a
very
strong
proposal.
We've
worked
with
ivanhoe
and
blue
hills
as
well
with
past
projects,
but
this
is
the
most
immediate
one.
That's
that's
pressing.
K
Yeah,
I
think
so
I
mean
you
know,
like
justice,
said
for
a
lot
of
folks.
I
think
they
they
see
things
as
well.
What
are
our
most
pressing
needs?
You
know
having
a
hard
time,
putting
food
on
the
table
now.
This
is
the
reality
of
my
situation.
You
know,
I
can't
think
of
having
a
more.
You
know
efficient
furnace,
but
you
know.
I
think
that
there
are
some
of
those
immediate
needs.
K
That
they've
expressed,
most
importantly,
are
things
that
do
overlap
with
us,
and
you
know
the
city
certainly
has
some
resources
that
that
you
know
they
devote
towards
weatherization
projects.
So
I
think
it's
just
a
question
of
you
know
again
getting
these
groups
in
the
room
with
us,
pointing
out
the
different
resources
that
are
out
there
and
the
city
staff
generally
could
help
with
that
as
well.
So
they
know
that
hey
look,
you
know,
I
mean
yeah.
K
I
can
go
to
central
city
sales
tax
for
some
of
this,
but
there's
a
whole
lot
that
we
just
don't
know
about.
We
didn't
know
we're
even
at
options.
I
think
the
city
I
mean
this
respectfully
because
I
think
andy
and
jerry.
I
think
you
guys
did
a
good
job
of
saying,
broadly
as
a
city
as
a
whole,
you
know
traditionally
struggles
with
its
communications
with
its
constituents
about
what
what
is
available
and
then
you
look
at
the
the
citizen.
K
Satisfaction,
surveys
that
go
out
every
year
and
the
city
generally
has
scored
pretty
low
marks
on
the
communications
piece,
and
so
I
think
that
you
know
our
engagement
with
them.
I
think
it's
not
only
you
know
to
to
listen
as
to
what
their
needs
are,
as
we've
been
listening
on
the
central
city
sales
tax
board,
but
also,
let
them
know
hey.
You
know
these
are
the
resources
that
you
know
you
you
are
entitled
to
that.
We
can
connect
you
with.
K
A
A
I
do
want
to.
I
know:
I've
just
hammered
this
home
a
thousand
times.
I
want
to
encourage
all
of
you
to
participate
in
the
city's
comprehensive
planning
process
this
week,
they're
talking
about
the
environment-
and
this
is
a
chance
for
us
to
talk
about
the
difference
between
a
regenerative
economy
and
an
extraction
economy
and
for
us
to
say
again
that
the
environment
is
everything
around
us
and
we
are
part
of
it
and
it
is
not
separate.
A
D
A
D
Doing
it
quite
a
bit
over
the
last
couple
of
weeks
and
I'm
excited
to
see
a
lot
of
the
input
so
far
so
but
yeah
to
sort
of
piggyback
on
carol's
point.
It's
a
great
opportunity
to
speak
about
not
only
the
environment
in
general,
but
the
specific
environmental
issues
that
are
important
to
you,
like
the
fact
that
transportation
is
the
largest
greenhouse
gas
emission
sector
in
the
country
and
in
the
city.
But
that's
just
me.
A
C
A
L
So
I
will
be
reaching
out
to
you
soon.
Thank
you
for
everything
yeah!
No,
thank
you
very
much
all
right
and
for
everyone
else,
environmental
achievement
awards.
I
thank
you,
commission,
for
allowing
us
to
kind
of
defer
this
for
an
additional
month
for
some
people
to
kind
of
get
their
feedback
under
them
going
back
to
their
jobs.
We
we
went
from
three
to
seven,
so
we
have
seven
nominations
out
there
right
now.
L
L
So
seven
and
we'll
get
those
together
and
we
had
decided
that
we
were
postponing
this
for
a
month.
We
hadn't
specifically
talked
about
postponing
the
awards
ceremony
for
a
month,
but
then
I
think
addison
banks
from
heartland
conservation
alliance
is
on
the
schedule
next
time
to
talk
about
the
blue
river
report
card,
which
means
it'd,
be
it
just
fell,
naturally,
that
we
would
actually
move
the
award
ceremony
till
september.
L
L
A
Okay,
I
wonder
if
we
should
check
with
the
city
communications
department
and
see
if
they
can
do
something
that
would
showcase
the
kind
of
presentation
that
molly
usually
puts
together
about
the
award
winners.
Maybe
do
it
on
channel
two
or
something
like
that,
so
that
there
is
some
way
for
them
to
get
broader
recognition
than
just
a
zoo.
L
Yeah
and
actually
andy-
and
I
talked
quite
a
bit
about
that
today-
we
could
do
the
zoom
meeting.
Then
we
could
figure
out
if
we
could
still
get
pictures
with
the
city
manager
or
the
mayor
for
those
people
that
are
comfortable,
those
that
are
already
back
to
work
at
their
offices
or
those
that
are
comfortable
getting
photographs.
And
then
we
have.
L
We
have
the
weekly
report
in
the
city
that
comes
out
and
it
would
be
very
easy
to
do
a
focus
on
all
of
the
award
winners
on
the
weekly
report,
which
goes
out
on
youtube
and
is
available
to
everyone,
and
then
we
could
of
course
put
that
out
on
social
media
and,
of
course,
talk
to
communications
about
other
options.
But
those
are
just
two
that
are
glaringly
right
out
there
in
front
of
us
is
that
weekly
report,
and
then
we
have
a
april.
L
A
L
L
You
can
still
put
together
the
presentation
you
always
do.
We
can
easily
have
that
on
a
zoom
as
well
and
and
we'll
move
forward
from
there.
So
does
anybody
have
any
questions
or
concerns
about
the
zoom?
I
I
think
what
I
can
do
is
just
meet
with
city
communications
and
bring
something
to
you
at
the
next
meeting,
just
a
little
update
with
just
kind
of
a
suite
of
ideas,
of
how
we
can
move
forward
on
this.
F
L
F
J
F
M
Okay,
I'll
give
kind
of
a
less
fun
overview
of
some
things
here.
I
guess
than
the
achievement
awards,
but
anyhow,
first
off
the
budget
reduction
exercise.
I
know
it's
on
the
minds
of
a
lot
of
folks
council
mayor
city
manager,
everybody's
going
going
through
line
by
line
of
the
various
recommendations
that
were
made
by
the
directors,
so
any
additional
questions
are
being
directed
to
the
directors.
M
M
One
of
the
things
that
I
kind
of
discover
or
just
found
out
about
was
that
the
furloughs
that
that
have
been
talked
about
in
various
finance
committee
meetings
are
not
part
of
the
original
recommendations
that
were
presented
to
council,
they're
kind
of
being
reserved
as
a
possible
way
to
bridge
the
gap
between
those
recommendations
that
aren't
accepted
because
they're
just
not
feasible
and
then
possibly
laying
furloughs
over
the
top
of
that.
So
this
is
still
early
in
the
conversation.
M
So
that's
pretty
much
all
I
have
about
that.
I
don't
really
have
any
more
specifics
about
any
particular
recommendations
that
were
presented
tied
to
that.
The
next
thing
would
be.
You
may
have
seen
this
in
an
announcement
about
the
city-wide
business
plan,
retreat
that
the
council
will
be
having
this
friday.
M
So
an
announcement
just
went
out
about
that
today,
and
essentially
this
is
this
will
be
the
first
business
plan
that
this
particular
council
will
be
crafting
for
themselves.
It
would
be
their
they're
gonna
own
this
one
when
they
were
elected.
They
were
more
or
less
kind
of
inheriting
the
previous
council's
business
plan.
So
this
one
who
knows
what
what
priorities,
what
goals
and
objectives
they're
going
to
be
identifying
in
this
particular
business
plan?
M
But
you
know
this
is
a
four
to
five
year
business
plan,
it's
kind
of
how
they
do
these,
and
this
is
one
way.
This
is
one
tool
that
was
proposed
years
ago
to
kind
of
help
you
know
set
that
opportunity
where,
because
we're
kind
of
restricted
to
an
annual
budget
cycle,
these
this,
the
five-year
business
plan
kind
of
allowed
us
to
kind
of
plan
more
strategically
for
longer
periods
of
time.
M
The
retreat
will
be
visible
on
channel
two
and
various
other
streaming
mechanisms
on
friday
starts
at
10
o'clock
goes
to
about
1
o'clock.
The
public
does
not
have
the
opportunity
to
comment.
This
is
purely
council
driven
conversations,
but
you
can
observe
you
can
kind
of
see,
see
where
they're
going
and
then
the
directors
are
only
there
just
to
answer
questions
that
might
come
about
during
their
planning
process.
M
M
M
L
M
M
I
know
laura's
working
also
on
the
engagement
aspect
already,
so
we're
we're
actively
looking
for
folks
that
we
can
engage
with
as
part
of
the
climate
planning
process.
So
I
know
she's
been
doing
some
work.
I've
been
doing
some
work,
jerry's
been
kind
of
working
behind
the
scenes,
so
we're
all
kind
of
working
on
kind
of
trying
to
start
building
those
networks
and
those
relationships,
so
that
once
we
get
the
facilitator
on
board
we're
already
moving
in
that
direction.
So
that's
just
kind
of
work.
M
M
And
you
do
have
to
register
and
then
from
there
you
can
kind
of
sign
up
for
updates
and
to
and
be
able
to
get
your
input
into
that
system
so
and,
of
course,
we'll
be
tied
into
that
for
our
climate
planning
process.
So
whatever
feedback
goes
in
through
that
door
will
get
funneled
to
us
from
that
angle
as
well.
So
are
there
any
questions
regarding
the
climate
action
plan
or
what
I've
spoken
to
so
far.
I
M
M
Council
yeah
our
procurement
division,
they
they
cannot
put
out
an
rfp
without
having
funds
appropriated
to
the
project,
and
so
we
obviously
know
that
the
25
000
that
are
that
was
given
to
me
in
our
budget
is
not
going
to
cover
it.
So
we
have
to
kind
of
get
that
number
a
little
closer
to
where
we
think
it
might
be,
and
we
have
to
get
council
to
prove
that
funding
before
procurement
can
put
that
rp
out
on
the
street.
So
the
rfi
was
the
tool
that
procurement
allowed
us
to
we
put
together.
M
M
Yeah,
so
this
is
again
the
14th
or
so
can
procurement
takes
a
couple
of
days,
probably
process
that,
through
their
online
platform,
we'll
we'll
get
that
number
there's
not.
This
isn't
like
a
selection
process,
a
selection
committee
we're
just
grabbing
the
number
it's
a
matter
of
working
with
councilman
shields
and
the
finance
committee
to
basically
put
together
the
ordinance
and
that
usually
takes
two
to
three
weeks.
L
A
minimum
of
three
weeks
and
and
just
to
clarify
once
we
get
the
rfis
back
with
a
number
and
we
talk
about
it,
we're
going
to
start
the
rfp
process
and
we're
going
to
try
to
get
that
into
procurement
as
soon
as
possible.
So
procurement
will
have
it
and
can
start
putting
it
into
their
specific
city
format.
F
L
It
will
yeah
go
on.
It'll,
live
on
city
contract,
central
the
the
thing
with
rfis,
it's
a
little
different
than
rfqs
or
rfps
is
rfis,
go
out
to
a
specific
group
of
people,
depending
on
how
much
we're
thinking
they're
gonna
be.
So
what
happened
is
through
working
with
the
sustainability
directors
network?
I
had
a
list
of
people
that
have
had
completed
climate
action
plans
for
other
cities
that
had
come
well
recommended.
I
gave
that
list
to
our
procurement
folks,
but
otherwise,
because
it's
under
200
000
dollars.
L
I
guess
it's
considered
a
small
local
business
solicitation,
so
those
national
firms
that
I
specifically
listed
and
that
went
through
andy
and
jerry
as
well
to
kind
of
review
that
it
went
to
them,
and
then
it
went
to
any
small
local
businesses.
That
could
also
do
that
work
here
locally
and
then
that
one
from
what
I
can
tell
from
procurement
does
not
live
anywhere.
It
just
goes
to
those
specific
folks.
L
The
rfpq
will
live
on
contract,
central
our
city
contract
site,
so
you'll
be
able
to
go
online
and
actually
see
the
request
for
proposals,
and
let
businesses
know
that
it's
out
there
and
then
it
will
also
be
in
bonfire,
which
is
the
city's
procurement
system
and
bonfire.
It's
automatically
set
up
to
send
out
to
a
whole
slew
of
possible
vendors
based
on
criteria
search
criteria
they
put
in
there.
You
know
environmental
engineering
sustainability,
whatever
it'll
go
out
automatically
to
all
of
those
folks.
L
So
once
we
have
the
rfpq
out,
I
can
give
you
all
the
links,
so
you
can
go
see
what
was
put
together
and
anything.
That's
missing
in
that
document
that
we
should
have
had.
Of
course,
we
have
to
keep
it
internal
just
so,
there's
not
anybody
given
a
specific
advantage
before
it's
awarded.
But
after
that,
when
we're
working
on
the
scope
with
the
consultant,
you
know
once
you've
seen
the
rfp.
We
could
get
your
input
on
making
sure
certain
things
are
in
the
scope.
Well,.
F
So,
specifically,
to
just
the
conversation
that
we've
been
having
about
representation,
so
the
what
I
would
be
curious
about
is
you
know,
within
the
stipulations
that
we're
putting
out
there
to
different
consultants,
the
level
of
interaction
and
requirements
for
listening
and
integration
of
solutions,
or
any
proposals
for
solutions
that
they
come
up
with.
Like
that's,
gonna
have
to
be
something
that
comes
in
from
us
as
a
requirement
of
them
and
that
can
kind
of
decide
what
they
put
together
in
the
first
place,.
L
Correct
to
a
degree,
and
so
when
we
put
out
the
rfi
and
when
I,
when
we
put
out
the
rfpq
resolution,
two
zero
zero
zero
five
goes
out
with
it
that
talks
about
this
has
to
be
an
equity,
focused
plan.
These
are
all
the
groups
we
want
to
have
involved
with
it.
So
that's
that's
going
to
go
out
with
it,
so
they
already
see
that
document
and
the
plan
when
we
put
it
together,
it's
going
to
have
all
that
wording
as
well.
As
this
plan
has
to
come
from
an
equity
focus.
L
We
already
decided
that
we're
we're
doing
in
climate
action
adaptation
mitigation
sequestration
plan
based
on
what
urals
input
that's
all
going
out
and
that
it's
it's,
the
focus
of
the
plan
is
equity
and
everything
else
is
revolves
around
that.
So
that
for
sure
is
going
out.
How
then
sort
of
making
sure
this
works
correctly
is
figuring
out?
How
who
we
have
at
the
table
that
has
the
as
far
as
reviewing
these
rfpqs
when
they
come
in
who
we
have
at
the
table.
That
has
a
good
equity
lens,
and
at
this
point
I
don't.
L
I
don't
have
that
person
in
mind,
and
so,
if
somebody
has
somebody
that
they
know
has
expertise
in
that
field
that
can
make
sure
that
the
right
buzzwords
are
coming
out
of
this
plan.
It
would
be
great
and
we
could
put
an
equity.
An
equity
consultant
is
somebody
I
definitely
wanted
to
have
at
the
table
on
the
review
committee.
L
So
be
thinking
about
that,
and
also
on
that
note
andy
said,
we've
started
outreach,
sort
of
kind
of
the
big
players
and
jerry's
working
on
outreach
for
the
plan
from
the
perspective
of
who
was
on
it
before.
Are
they
still
in
those
roles?
Can
they
offer
some?
You
know
historic
knowledge
he's
looking
into
that,
but
folks
that
we
may
not
have
thought
of
contacts.
You
have
people
that
you
know
are
super
interested
just
start,
throwing
them
my
way.
If
it's
yeah
it's
the
naacp.
L
But
so
please
any
contacts
that
you
have
any
groups
you
have
and
you
don't
have
to
do
a
lot
of
legwork,
give
me
a
name
and
an
email
address
and
we'll
do
the
rest
of
the
legwork
and
we'll
follow
up
and
have
those
conversations
on
the
phone
about
why
this
could
be
useful.
If
you
don't
have
time
great.
M
Any
other
questions
last
last
thing
I
just
threw
out
there
is
about
the
casey
green
website
and,
as
you
know,
these
are
volunteers
of
city
employees.
That
kind
of
work
on
the
various
teams
and
the
same
thing
sort
of
applies
to
the
website
that
you
know
they're
sort
of
updated,
as
the
team
members
have
time
to
kind
of
work
on
those.
So
one
of
the
things
we've
kind
of
talked
about
in-house
is,
of
course
we
need
to
get
those
updated.
M
But
I
think
that
I
would
be
welcome
to
to
kind
of
revisit
some
of
those
comments
from
the
commission
to
kind
of
make
sure
we
we
add
to
the
casey
green
website.
Those
things
that
are
relevant
kind
of
same
thing,
we'll
be
doing
for
the
oeq
web
pages,
which
is
where
the
commission's
page
resides
as
well
as
the
climate
protection
steering
committee.
So
some
of
that
content
is
still
is
starting
to
get
a
little
bit
dated.
So
we're
going
to
start
trying
to
update
that
as
well.
M
A
No
on
the
liaison
reports,
the
air
quality
forum
isn't
going
to
meet
until
later
in
the
month,
but
they're
doing
something
interesting
for
the
first
time
under
the
new
transportation
plan,
they're
requiring
the
applicants
for
different
projects
to
send
a
pre-application
that
then
the
people
who
are
on
the
different
marked
boards
have
a
chance
to
look
at
and
review
in
light
of
the
priorities
of
the
different
committees,
and
I
haven't
tackled
the
list.
Yet
have
you
andy.
M
Oh
yes
yeah.
Fortunately
I
didn't
figure
it
out
a
little
bit
later.
Then
you
gotta
look
for
the
training
on
this
a
little
bit,
but
fortunately,
what
they
did
is
they
took
the
vast
volume
of
those
projects
and
has
kind
of
narrowed
them
down
to
be
more
specific
to,
in
our
case,
the
air
quality
forum,
as
well
as
the
other
committees.
M
So
the
list
of
projects
isn't
nearly
as
daunting
as
it
was
when
I
first
looked
at
it
because
I
thought
it's
going
to
take
me
days
to
get
through
these
projects
and
then
end
of
the
day.
It's
a
much
more
manageable
list
of
projects
that
we'll
have
to
review
now.
We'll
have
the
option
to
look
at
all
the
others.
If
you've
got
the
time,
the
inclination,
but
at
least
from
the
perspective
of
just
what
the
air
quality
form
has
say,
on
it's
much
more
manageable
and
and
they're
regional
projects,
so
you
do
get.
M
A
Now
the
thing
that
they're
trying
to
do
that's
different
is
it
used
to
be
the
proposals
would
come
in
and
they
would
be
complete
and
it
would
be
take
or
leave
it
very
little
negotiation
and
this
approach
with
the
pre-application
gives
us
a
chance
to
raise
other
priorities
with
the
applicants
before
they
put
their
final
proposal
together,
and
so
it's
a
chance
to
incorporate
stormwater
considerations
or
noise
barriers
or
andy.
You
can
think
of
things,
but
it's
a
chance
to
raise
other
topics
with
the
applicants
before
they
submit
their
final
proposal.
A
F
F
And
so
there
was
a
request
for
funds
to
get
professional
testimony
or
expert
testimony
to
defend
water
charges
for
a
potential
infraction
of
the
hancock
amendment.
And
so
I
wasn't
sure
if
everybody
I
had
to
actually
google
the
hancock
amendment
to
figure
out
what
exactly
it
was
talking
about.
But
how
many
people
in
the
commission
are
familiar
with
that
one.
F
A
H
A
H
A
H
A
B
Yes
yeah
so
everybody,
this
is:
billy
davies,
sierra
club
missouri
chapter
good
to
hear
y'all's
voices
again.
I
just
wanted
to
because
I
think
I
know
this
was
discussed
a
lot
and
you
know
celebrated
at
the
last
dmc
meeting,
but
I
think
that
was
before
some
additional
good
news
regarding
the
building
codes.
I
just
wanted
to
express
thanks
to
you
all
again
for
speaking
up,
as
I'm
sure
a
lot
of
you
are
aware
and
have
seen
the
council.
B
I
think,
a
week
after
your
last
meeting
passed
a
resolution
expressly
committing
to
evaluating
that
2021
iecc
this
fall
and
it
sounds
like
thanks
to
the
work
of
folks
at
oeq
and
working
collaboratively
with
planning
and
development
department.
There
might
even
be
some
opportunity
for
further
public
comment
or
public
meetings,
and
so
just
I
want
to
thank
you
all
and
we're
grateful
to
be
able
to
have
this
time
to
bring
even
more
people
in
to
this
progress
at
this
point.
B
He's
made
this
process
so
that
you
know
you
know
part
of
this
goal
and
as
far
as
lifting
up
the
voices
of
community
members
and
prioritizing
equity
centering,
this
process
in
you
know
affecting
change
for
the
better
in
people's
lives.
It's
great
that
you
know
during
this
time
of
great
struggle
in
our
country,
folks
are
able
to
focus
on
taking
care
of
their
friends
and
neighbors,
and
so
we
can
come
back
later.
B
This
fall
more
refreshed
with
more
time
to
evaluate
this
policy
and
provide
meaningful
comments,
and
so
just
want
to
thank
you
all
again
for
all
of
your
work
and
all
who
had
a
hand
in
getting
your
letter
sent
to
the
council
made
a
world
of
difference,
and
it's
gotten
some
great
coverage
of
kc
show
and
leadership.
So
anyway,
that's
all.
A
Well,
let
me
let
me
respond
to
that
a
little
bit.
The
commission
has
two
more
chances
really
to
weigh
in
on
that.
One
is
when
they
start
the
process
when
they
figure
out
how
they're
going
to
set
it
up
in
the
fall.
It's
another
chance
for
us
to
send
a
letter
saying
that
we
want
to
be
sure
the
environmental
stakeholders
are
included.
A
A
B
M
Yeah
thanks
billy
for
bringing
that
up.
I
I
couldn't
recall
if
that
had
happened
right
at
the
last
commission
meeting
or
whether
it
was
after
but
and
then
it
slipped
my
mind
when
I
was
putting
this
together,
but
I
appreciate
what
you
guys
did
as
well.
You
know,
I
think
it
is
a
team
effort
so
between
us
and
and
the
external
stakeholders.
It
really
does
does
make
a
difference.
N
Absolutely
I
I
don't
even
know
carol
right
now,
so
I
got
forty
thousand
dollars
from
the
kansas
city
relief
fund
losing
about
twenty
thousand
a
month
in
rent,
so
it
doesn't.
The
forty
thousand
is
I'm
very
thankful
for,
but
that
losing
twenty
a
month
does
not
cover
very
many
months.
It
covers
two
months,
so
my
concern
is
I'm
thinking.
Do
I
want
to
try
to
stretch
that
40
and
do
some
relief
for
three
months?
Do
I
want
to
try
to
make
the
40
stretch
for
six
months?
N
If
I
was
a
betting
person,
I'm
saying
I
don't
think
things
get
back
to
normal
much
before
january.
If
that
and
the
problem
is,
I
have
people
that
haven't
worked
tenants
that
haven't
worked
for
two
months,
so
they
haven't
paid
rent
for
two
months.
They
will
never
recoup
that
money.
They
lost
for
two
months
and
maybe
they're
going
on
their
third
month
or
fourth
month
and
depending
on
what
their
situation
is,
people
that
thought
they
were
going
to
get
their
jobs
back.
N
N
J
N
It
feels
like
that,
I'm
fortunate
in
my
organization,
because
my
construction
side
of
the
house
is
doing
very
very
well.
It's
really
kicking
butt
and
I've
done.
We've
done
more
quantity
and
our
results
have
been
good
as
an
organization
bottom
line,
it
looks
like
people
are
very
productive
at
home
because
our
results
are
very
strong,
but
my
I
don't
know
what
happens
to
these
families
and
beyond
the
forgiveness
money
I
have
today.
N
That
really
doesn't
I
mean
that
just
puts
people
out
on
the
street
that
aren't
on
the
street
right
now,
although
my
the
mechanism
for
me
really
is
I
need
to
have,
I
don't
have
to
have
renters.
I
need
to
have
paying
renters
in
my
properties,
because
that's
how
I
pay
pay
so
yeah.
I
don't
know
what
the
answer
is
right
now,
I'm
not
doing
anything
and
I
don't
intend
to
kick
people
out
on
august
1,
but
I
don't
know
how
long
we
can
go
with
declining
numbers.
A
N
Yeah,
so
I've
gotten
some
help
from
neighborworks
I've
gotten
some
help
from
the
relief
fund,
we're
getting
ready
for
our
annual
event
and
we're
going
to
to
target
that
towards
rent
relief
and
again
I'm
getting
fee
for
service
on
all
of
my
construction
stuff
and
it's
very
strong.
So
typically,
my
construction
carries
about
30
of
the
revenue
and
it's
carrying
more
like
50
percent
of
the
revenue
and
I'm
lucky.
I
have
that
much
going
on
and
that
much
that
I
can
service.
So
again,
the
organization
is
fine,
but
the
whole
idea
of
my
property.
N
So
I
called
my
bank
to
find
out
what
could
happen
on
forgiveness
forbearance
with
my
loan,
so
some
banks
will
say
you
don't
have
to
pay
for
six
months
and
we'll
add
six
months
to
the
back
of
your
mortgage,
which
is
a
good
thing,
because
you
know
whether
my
mortgage
on
december
31st
or
go
six
more
months.
I
can
deal
with
that
right,
but
my
bank
isn't
that
us
bank
is
you,
don't
have
to
pay
for
six,
but
in
nine
months
you
have
to
be
whole.
N
So
basically,
I'm
just
delaying
the
inevitable,
which
is
I
have
to
be
whole
by
nine
months.
So
if
I
don't
pay
for
six,
then
in
three
months
I
have
to
pay
nine
months
worth
of
mortgage.
So
it's
not
really
a
gift.
It's
just
a
it's
delaying
the
inevitable,
so
we're
just
continuing
to
pay
every
month
yeah
and
trying
to
figure
out
how
to
do
everything
else
that
we
need
to
do
so.
Yeah,
it's
just
an
and
I'm
a
small
organization.
N
I
only
have
263
properties,
I
can't
imagine
across
the
country,
because
I
know
other
organizations
that
have
you
know
thousands
24
000
units
18
000
units
when
you
have
that
and
you
have
a
population
that
is,
you
know
it's
basically,
85
percent
of
my
population
is
people
of
color
and
it's
those
people
that
are
that
population
that
is
affected
by
this,
this
crisis
so
or
this
pandemic,
so
yeah.
So
I
don't
know-
and
I
think
other
cities
are
like
ours-
they
don't
know
when
they're
going
back,
I
mean
california
reopened
and
now
it
reclo.
N
N
J
N
So
neighborworks
is
doing
monthly
meetings,
which
is
my
the
organization
I
belong
to
is
a
I'm
an
exemplary
organization
inside
a
neighborworks,
I'm
a
smaller
organization,
so
I
don't
have
as
much
and
each
one
makes
has
a
different
makeup.
Mine
happens
to
be
a
third
of
my
businesses,
property
management,
a
third
of
its
construction
and
a
third
of
it.
I
raise
so
we're
doing
fine
on
the
raising
and,
like
I
said,
our
construction
is
probably
carrying
50
of
the
house
right
now.
N
So
my
the
fact
that
my
properties-
but
I
don't
but
I'm
still
looking
at
the
families
and
saying
like
I
got
a
grant
and
I've
got
ten
thousand
dollars
for
food,
but
I've
already
given
out
eight
thousand
so
right.
You
have
to
make
that
the
rest
of
the
ten
last
four
or
four
more
months.
And
how
do
I
do
that
and
then
I
got
a
grant
for,
like
I
said,
rent
forgiveness,
but
I'm
losing
so
much
more
than
what
I
mean.
N
N
This,
the
city
relief
fund,
the
kansas
city
community
foundation
fund,
is
trying
to
come
up
with
more
matter
of
fact
what
they
did
is
they
brought
the
housing
organizations
together
and
said
we
have
six
million
dollars
left.
How
is
the
best
way
for
us
to
spend
it,
and
basically
people
are
saying
rent
relief.
You
need
to.
L
Yeah,
I
think
it's
just
super
important
to
make
sure
we're
capturing
those
numbers
because,
like
justice
said
we're
in
the
moment
and
as
when,
we
have
to
have
those
stories
because
with
people
are
going
to
forget,
and
we
need
to
be
able
to
put
those
stories
in
front
of
city,
council
and
yeah
and
so
yeah.
I
just
want
to
make
sure
your.
N
Annual
event
is
all
about
those
numbers
I've
shared.
You
know
I
calculated
the
numbers
and
we're
sharing
them
on
every
story
that
we
have
and
so
we're
real
clear
as
a
staff.
You
know
how
the
decline
has
happened
and
how
much
decline
and
and
like
I
said,
we're
we're
right
now,
predicting
that
it's
going
to
be
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
by
december
that
we
lose
so
we're
real
clear
on
that
number.
N
B
N
Yeah,
so
that's
what
I'm
trying
to
do
and
we're
applying
applying
applying
matter
of
fact
I
just
while
we
were
on
on
here.
I
just
got
a
message
from
the
city
that
we
got
fifty
thousand
dollars
more
for
minor
home
repair,
which
just
is
yeah,
so
the
construction
house,
like
I
said,
continues
to
do
well,
but
yeah
and
every
week
yeah
last
week
I
got
a
grant
for
10
000.,
so
there's
dribbles
coming
in,
but
I
just
know
where
we're
headed
is
100.
000
lost
by
december,
hey.
F
N
F
N
Oh
go
on
my
website
and
you
can.
There
should
be
a
box
that
you
can
click
and
if
you
can't
just
put
a
check
in
the
mail,
because
actually
I
would
prefer
a
check
because
paypal
will
take
their
percentage
off
so
yeah
look
up,
whoops,
west
side,
housing,
919,
west
29th,
24th
street,
yes,
yeah
and
and
put
a
check
in
the
mail
that'd
be
great.
Thank
you.
N
Yeah
so
emmett
happens
to
have
many
of
his
properties
held
up
in
u.s
bank
as
well
as
I.
So
we
did
talk
with
mark
about
what,
if
and
the
foundations,
because
we
had
the
kansas
city,
greater
community
foundation
as
well
as
block,
was
there
and
so
was
hallmark
family
foundation?
And
so
we
said
what,
if
we,
as
a
group,
said
any
of
the
funding
that
they're
putting
together
for
the
relief
program
won't
go
to
banks
who
don't
do
forbearance.
N
That
is
helpful
for
organizations
like
ours.
So
that's
one
thing
we
are
looking
at
is
like
emma
and
I
coming
together,
because
I
mean
right
now.
My
my
piece
is
a
million
dollars,
but
it's
a
million
dollars
in
a
whole
of
you
know
fifth
largest
bank
in
the
world
or
in
the
country.
It's
it's
nothing,
but
maybe
collectively
emma
and
I
can
do
something
and
they
and
they
did
have
a
four
bear.
They
did
have
to
put
together
a
forbearance
committee
and
it's
just
unfortunate
that
yeah
that
they
said
no.
N
H
Of
people
working
for
minimum
wage
and
and
just
just
nationalize
the
companies
or
I
don't
care
what
words
you
use,
but
you
know
this
is
a
biological
thing
that
has
happened,
and
it
has
nothing
to
do
with
an
economy
and
economy.
Economies
are
supposed
to
be
made
to
serve
the
people.
This
is
obviously
not
serving
the
people
anymore
and.
B
H
If
it's
suspended,
why
don't
they
just
suspend
the
damned
economy
but
see
I
don't
know
I'm
not
an
economist.
I
don't
know
all
these.
Well,
if
you
do
that,
then
you
do
this
and
you
do
that
and
I
know
how
things
are
connected
because
I
do
know
a
little
bit
about
the
environment,
so
I
know
it's
all
connected,
so
why
don't
we
get
all
these
people
in
the
room
and
just
solve
this
thing?
It
re.
You
know
it's
it's
like.
How
long
is
this
thing
going
to
last?
N
N
Marty
is
that
other
banks
do
that,
put
it
at
the
end.
It
doesn't
matter
if
you
put
six
months
at
the
end
ten
months
at
the
end,
whatever
so
you're
you're
you're,
so
you're,
my
mortgage
doesn't
end
in
2025,
so
it
ends
in
2026..
Who
cares?
I
mean
I'll
just
make
payments
then
all
right,
I
have
the
money,
so
that
makes
so
much
sense.
The
bank
didn't
lose
anything
by
people
doing
that,
it's
more
it's
it's
it
flexes
with
the
times
that
way
but
yeah.
N
N
The
u.s
bank
relationship
anyway
and
move
it
to
our
first
citizens
bank
account
so
we're
still
we're
heavily
personally
working
on
that
route,
which
we
know
we
have
control
of,
which
is
to
say,
pay
it
off
and
take
it,
take
our
business
to
another
bank
and
that
way
we
can
get
out
of
that.
So
that's
that's
plan
b
or
plan
a
if
you
want
to
say
and
then
plan
b
is
working
with
everybody
else
and
trying
to
figure
out
policy
change.
