We
are
using
Microsoft
teams
to
make
these
remotely
as
possible
instructions
for
how
the
public
may
view
and
also
public
testimony
at
all.
The
theories
of
council
committee
included
in
the
public
hearing
notice
that
are
published
in
The,
Daily,
News
and
legal
Intelligencer
prior
to
the
hearings
and
can
also
be
found
on
pH.
Now,
council
comm
hours
come
to
start
the
hearing.
Mr.
Sibley,
you
please
roll
to
take
attendance.
E
C
A
C
B
You
the
committee
is
present
and
the
hearing
is
now
called
the
water
deferred
that
dive
into
what
we're
sure
will
be
a
very
informative
session,
I
think
to
say
a
few
words
about
today's
process
about
the
12
hours
parameter
and
has
changed
the
world
and
includes
his
castle.
They're,
not
the
same
room
and
be
honest.
B
B
How
I
was
gonna
emphasize
our
budget
schedules
no
contest
that
in
the
past
years
and
a
mess
advisor
apparently
caused
by
the
Tobin
90
requires
that
the
administration
throughout
the
original
proposed
budget
and
prepares
a
brand-new
one
which
we
didn't
receive,
and
so
earlier
this
month.
So
we
have
less
time
in
these
hearings
that
were
used.
That
are
out
less
time
that
we
have
to
be
mindful
that
our
respect
for
each
other
and
the
public
each
of
us
needs
to
be
the
ref
possible
questions.
A
brief
in
our
comments.
B
We
need
to
keep
things
moving
away
as
we
need
to
start,
and
we
need
to
finish
on
time.
Everybody
the
lights
go
out
and
we
lose
our
television
feed.
As
the
mayor
has
a
press
conference
that
has
to
happen
the
last
couple
days
that
we're
still
going
to
be
on
time
and
succinct,
there's
a
lot
to
cover
and
I'd
like
to
get
started.
Thank
you
and.

I,
don't
know
for
the

at
this

that
we

purpose.
B
H
H
You
so
much
I
want
to
thank
you
and
I
want
to
start
by
saying
a
special
thank
you
to
the
Commerce
Department
for
all
that
you
have
done
during
this
global
pandemic.
In
addition
to
that,
while
we've
been
dealing
with
the
civil
unrest
in
our
society,
I
know
for
a
first
hand,
when
we've
called
on
you
all
relative
to
small
businesses,
you
have
helped
and
I
want
to
say
a
special
thank
you
to
each
of
you.
H
Let
me
start
by
saying
at
the
beginning
of
May,
the
storefront
improvement
program
budget
was
effectively
slashed
and
install
was
cut
by
about
a
third
now.
This
made
a
lot
of
sense
a
few
weeks
ago
than
it
does
today
in
light
of
what
our
small
business
is,
particularly
the
neighborhood
small
businesses
have
endured.
If
we
can't
use
general
fund
dollars
for
this,
are
there
any
other
state
funds
or
other
funds
available?
In
addition
to
that,
I
want
to
bring
our
attention
to
the
need
to
fix
up
the
neighborhood
based
businesses
that
have
been
damaged.
H
H
The
old
way
of
doing
things
is
over
so
again,
I
want
you
to
comment
about
the
storefront
improvement
plan,
the
in-store
program
about
the
my
recommendation
regarding
program
rules
so
that
they're
most
much
more
flexible
and
then
I
want
to
hear
your
perspective
about
using
pre,
apprenticeship
and
apprenticeship
programs
to
work
with
CTE
students
and
other
people.
Black
and
brown
in
particular,
to
be
a
part
of
going
to
reconstruct
businesses
in
our
neighborhoods
sure.
K
We're
damaged
over
due
to
the
unrest
we
actually
are
using
as
I
think
you
probably
remember
from
the
last
time.
I
testified
that
there's
three
million
dollars
that
we
have
as
part
of
a
ten
million
dollar
allocation
for
quality
quality
jobs
program
that
we
were
going
to
apply
towards
fiscal
year.
Twenty
one
for
kovat
related
business
relief.
What
we
are
doing
now
is
is
taking
a
portion
of
those
dollars
which
are
less
restricted
than
the
storefront
improvement
dollars
and
well
actually
than
the
in-store
dollars.
K
I
should
say
than
the
CDBG
dollars
and
we
are
going
to
be
doing
an
emergency
grant
program
in
the
near
future.
So
what
we're
doing
right
now?
We
actually
just
yesterday,
sent
out
a
survey
to
the
CDC's
so
that
they
can
help
inform
us
about
the
number
of
businesses
that
were
damaged
the
extent
of
the
damage
information
about
whether
or
not
they
have
insurance
and
what
they
know
in
terms
of
how
much
insurance
might
cover
and
just
to
get
a
better
sense
of
the
amount
that
we
need
and
an
amount
of
damage
and.
L
D
K
Intend
to
have
a
very
simple
application
process
in
their
near
future,
so
that
businesses,
this
would
be
for
businesses
and
disadvantaged
communities
not
for
downtown,
can
apply
to
put
that
towards.
You
know,
repair
anything
either
loss
repairing
their
facade,
their
interior,
deductibles
things
like
that
in
terms
so
definitely
agree
about
flexible
rules
and
and
having
it
be
as
simple
as
possible.
K
What
we've
done
already
is
provide
names
of
minority
businesses
from
our
registry
from
the
OEO
registry
to
businesses
that
have
been
impacted
so
when
they
were
looking
to
board
up,
we
provided
names
of
businesses
from
the
registry,
but
I
think
that
we
could
certainly
figure
out
some
way
to
refer
the
businesses
to
you
know:
minority
contractors
and
potentially
programs
like
that
CTE
I,
think
that's
a
great
idea
did
I.
Yes,.
H
Again,
you
know
this
and
when
we
do
things
wrong,
you
know
you
we're
the
first
that
you
will
hear
us
noted,
but
when
we
start
to
get
something
right
and
we
do
it
right,
I
think
that
should
be
recognized
as
well.
If
I
wanted
to
Karen
to
doing
some
of
them,
nasara
Michelle,
selenium
I
mean
we
were
on
the
ground
and
I
mean
we
were
in
real
time
trying
to
get
people
patched
into
neighborhoods
to
board
up
businesses.
I
mean
it
was
crisis
management.
H
You
know
in
real
time
and
I
want
to
say
thank
you
for
standing
everything
you
stood
up.
We
look
forward
to
working
with
you
on
this
reconstruction
through
apprenticeship
program
and
pre-apprenticeship
programs
and
and
chairman
Schwimmer
I
have
to
leave
now
I'm
right
across
the
street
I'm
on
the
phone
I'm
in
the
car,
but
I
just
want
to
put
on
the
record
and
I
won't
be
able
to
stay
to
hear
the
response
for
DHS
in
the
Office
of
Children
and
Family
Services.
Is
that
all
we
know
a
relative
to
our
economy?
H
H
What
are
we
doing
to
support
child
care
providers
during
this
time
where
their
entire
business
model
has
collapsed
and,
secondly,
to
I'll
be
providing
guidance
to
them
as
they
try
to
safely
reopen
them
that
we
have
entered
the
yellow
phase
and
I,
specifically,
chairman
Squealer,
want
to
hear
response
to
what
support
services
are
going
to
minority
and
women-owned
providers,
especially
those
who
are
home
base
and
chairman
squirrel,
the
members
of
council.
Thank
you
for
your
patience
and
I
have
to
get
off
there.
Thank.
B
Thank
You
Catherine,
Ellen
Parker
I
appreciate
your
input
before
we
go
to
the
other
members
for
council.
Just
a
quick
question
and
we
were
spoken
to
this
in
the
past
and
I
really
appreciate
how
fast,
during
the
cold
in
nineteen
crisis,
we
will
get
up
and
and
put
some
subsidies
on
the
table
further
and
some
of
our
small
businesses.
B
It
was
something
to
get
people
hope
and
feel
and
know
that
they,
the
city
of
Philadelphia,
is
looking
out
for
them.
So
it's
very
important
and
now
that
we
see
the
state
stepping
up
and
then
using
some
of
the
Cova
dollars
for
access
and
it's
going
to
be
done
through
the
state,
but
I
was
just
and
I
spoke
to
yesterday.
Is
there
way
that
we
could
let
our
our
folks
know
through
our
Commerce
Department
through
a
link
to
access
this
portal
for
friends
that
the
state
will
be
now
distributing
through
third
party.
K
B
I
Forward
to
their
feedback
in
this
process,
can
you
quickly
and
if
you
don't
have
a
quick
summary
provide
to
the
chair-
the
225
million
dollar
small
business
relief
package
from
the
state?
Here's
a
hundred
million
from
Main
Street,
100
million
for
historically
disadvantaged
disadvantaged
businesses
and
25
million
for
loan
payment
proportionally,
given
the
history
that
we
thought
with
it
with
the
state?
What
is
your
expectation
of
how
much
of
that
money
will
end
up
in
Philadelphia
and
where
are
some
of
the
priorities
you're
trying
to
drive.
K
I
No
I
didn't
have
an
idea
you
can
send
it
I
think
it's
a
it's
incumbent
on
us
to
begin
to
drive
that
money
and
prioritize
it.
One
of
the
good
things
about
what
has
happened
over
COBIT
is
that
we
have
strengthened
our
relationship
with
the
state
delegation,
and
so
let
us
not
wait
for
them
to
begin
to
drive
that
if
there's
any
recommendations
we
can
make,
we
should
we
should
do
so.
My
next
thing
is:
are
you
familiar
with
the
section
108
program
of
the
CDBG
process.
B
I
You
am
I
in
our
hearings,
with
a
module
and
I
have
been
I
have
been
strongly
encouraging.
The
108
program
was
used
by
the
Randhawa
administration
to
rebuild
downtown
and
there
were
a
mix
of
hotels
and
commercial
establishments.
There
were
that
established
and
I
have
been
calling
on
the
administration
to
do
something
similar,
but
much
much
bolder
and
the
five
hundred
million
and
dedicate
that
kind
of
investment
to
the
neighborhoods
as
we
have
done
downtown.
Do
you
have
any
perspective
on
this?
I
Given
the
you
know,
the
conditions
of
our
commercial
Carter's,
I
specifically
asked
and
how
many
of
the
administration
members
have
walked
the
current
Carter's
cousin
ten
that
I
share
where
councilman
Scola
is
destroyed.
So
you
have
any
feelings
around
the
need
to
do
something
that
big
as
much
as
I
appreciate.
You
know
a
couple
million
here.
A
couple
million
there
are
neighborhoods
are
destroyed.
A
couple
million
is
not
going
to
do
anything
for
those
neighborhoods
I.
K
Certainly
agree
that
we
need
to
put
a
lot
more
investment
into
the
commercial
corridors
into
our
neighborhoods.
I
I
would
have
to
become
more
familiar
with
the
hud-1
any
program.
To
really
answer
that
question
I
don't
know.
I
Karen
is
also
on
popping
up
on
the
screen.
So
I
don't
know
if
Karen
might
have
a
little
additional
insight.
M
Hi
this
is
karen:
Phegley,
deputy
commerce,
director
I,
don't
I
think
it's
a
I
think
it's
definitely
it's
a
great
idea.
Council
minutes
something
we
should
look
into
I
do
know.
P
IDC
has
used
the
program
in
recent
years
for
a
few
neighborhood
projects.
I
think
Supermarket
projects,
but
I
I
couldn't
put
my
fingers
on
them
to
confirm
exactly
the
name.
So
we
will
get
back
to
that
those
but
I
like
the
idea
of
them.
It
is
a
potential
source
for
significant.
K
And
you
know
it's
a
combination,
it
really
kind
of
depends
on
how
you
look
at
it.
There's
a
combination
of
chain
stores
and
then
stores
and
I.
Think
you
know
the
program
that
we'll
be
setting
up
will
not
be
for
chain
stores.
It'll
be
it'll,
really
be
for
smaller
businesses,
and
then
you
know,
then
the
question
is:
how
much
you
know
do
they
have
insurance?
How
much
assurance
they
have?
K
How
much
is
covered,
because
you
know
some
percentage
of
that
damage
is
covered
by
insurance,
hopefully
I'm
sure
some
of
it
is,
but
we
just
you
know:
Councilman
Jim
refer
to
an
email
to
me
yesterday
from
business
owner
has
to
one
in
West
Philly
one
in
Germantown,
and
he
said
he
has
a
small
insurance
policy
has
lost
everything.
Everything
for
kids
and
you
know
I'm
not
quite
sure
how
much
it
would
take
to
help
him
get
back
know
so.
E
E
There
any
type
of
technical
systems,
other
initiatives
that's
going
to
be
put
together
to
help
businesses,
especially
some
of
our
smaller
businesses,
to
navigate
the
insurance
process,
either
working
with
organizations
or
individuals
who
are
public
adjusters.
They
could
provide-
maybe
some
pro
bono
assistance
or
just
guidance
for
small
business
owners
similar
to
when
we
were
trying
to
provide
help
and
assistance
to
businesses
trying
to
navigate
the
PPP
program.
E
K
So
actually,
one
of
the
things
that
we've
been
doing
at
commerce
since
last
weekend
is
organizing
volunteers
that
are
getting
in
touch
with
us.
So
it
started
with
volunteers
around
just
boarding
up
and
cleaning
and
I'm
sure.
You
all
saw
the
incredible
number
of
people
that
came
out
and
now
we're
getting
a
lot
of
help
from
lawyers
and
MBA
student,
all
sorts
of
people
that
want
to
offer
support
technical
assistance
help
with
going
through
the
insurance
claims.
K
E
Is
there
going
to
be
some
effort
to
capture
all
the
information
put
out
through
social
media
through
some
type
of
in
the
campaign
or
initiative
to
let
people
know
if
you're,
a
small
business
owner
and
you
have
insurance
but
having
challenges
navigating
or
just
trying
to
restart
your
business?
This
is
where
you
can
go.
I
think.
K
E
E
Has
it
been
any
conversation
about
revisiting
calm,
just
deposit
calm
to
commerce
budget,
especially
reverence
and
general
fund
dollars
for
staffing?
So
we
have
people
that
can
help
small
businesses
to
get
reopened.
I
think
Commerce
was
historically
underfunded,
and
even
more
so
now,
with
these
tests.
K
So
we
haven't
really
discussed
replenishing
any
of
the
general
fund
dollars,
my
understanding
and
especially
because
we
work
so
closely
to
bring
in
jobs
and
revenue.
You
know
businesses
which
brings
to
the
city
that
you
know
the
situation's
really
dire
in
terms
of
you
know,
revenue
being
down,
so
we're
really
focused
on
getting
assistance
from
Cova
dollars.
State
cares
money.
You
know
now,
SBA.
You
know
we're
working
with
the
state
to
get
emergency
emergency
declaration
through
SBA,
so
that's
kind
of
what
we're
pursuing
right.
Now,
okay,.
K
B
That's
good
too,
and
then
there's
councilmember
green.
That
said,
I
know:
councilmember
Dom
was
working
with
some
volunteers
and
insurance
companies
to
actually
do
an
outreach
program
to
these
small
businesses
that
he
has
a
question
next.
So
I'll
just
leave
right
into
that.
Councilmember
Dom
you
available
Thank.
A
You
mr.
chairman
Thank
You
Sylvie
for
everything
you're
doing
so
yeah,
we
didn't
intercept
an
insurance
program
for
small
businesses.
I
met
only
colleagues
to
be
involved
with
it
and
we
have
people
from
the
insurance
industry
volunteering
their
time.
The
barristers
Association
of
Philadelphia.
Our
first
first
launch
was
in
West
Philadelphia,
but
we
plan
on
the
total
out
of
the
areas
in
the
area
of
like
Germantown
and
Erie
have
a
lot
of
damage.
Germantown,
Avenue,
councilman,
Sanchez's,
district
I.
K
And
corporation
were
we're
sort
of
larger
number
contracts
that
we
had
that
we
had
to
zero
out
because
of
the
budget
cuts-
and
you
know,
certainly
all
those
organizations
do
wonderful
work
and
then
get
a
great
return
on
their
investment.
So
you
know
those
were
difficult
decisions
to
make
and
those
are
long-standing
partners
of
ours.
I
think
you
know
other
than
that.
K
I
mean
councilman
greens
point
before
there
are
certain
programs
where
we
would
love
to
have
more
dollars
like
the
store
fan
improvement
program,
which
we
had
to
cut
some
percentage
of
that,
and
we
also
had
to
cut
our
safe
camp
program
in
our
program
that
funds,
our
phl
venture
program
that
funds
tech
startups
that
are
founders
from
disadvantaged
backgrounds
so
cause.
You
know
we
hope
to
bring
those
back.
But
those
are
all
programs
that
you
know
have
a
great
impact
and
return
on
investment.
So
if.
A
You
could
do
it
right
now,
just
send
over
to
us
three,
four
or
five
different
programs
that
you
think
we
should
revisit.
They
might
have
the
highest
rate
of
a
turn
for
the
city.
I'd
be
curious
to
know
what
those
are
to
see
if
there's
a
possible
way
to
restore
some
of
those
things.
Okay
can
do
that.
The
other
comment
I
just
want
to
make
is
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
any
City
dollars
state
or
federal
dollars
before
we
provide
them.
A
K
D
My
name
is
sister
Linda,
so
be.
How
are
you
good
morning?
How
are
you,
I
am
well
I
want
to
make
sure
that
this
economic
downturn
doesn't
lead
to
long-term
loss
of
black
wealth,
business
ownership
and
property
ownership
in
our
city,
I'm
thinking
up
corridors
like
52nd
Street
in
my
district,
that
was,
you
know
well
on
its
way
to
becoming
Center
and
really
a
showpiece
for
a
black
ownership
like
entrepreneurship
and
a
center
for
black
arts
and
culture.
D
So
we
know
there
are
those
who
see
these
type
of
economic
downturns
as
opportunistic
chances
to
buy
low
from
those
who
might
be
feeling
particularly
vulnerable.
How
does
a
Commerce
Department
propose
responding
to
the
likely
wave
of
real
estate
speculation
that
will
occur
on
commercial
corridor?
Is
that
have
suffered
due
to
covet
19
and
2?
Due
to
the
recent
unrest.
K
F
K
That
Karen
speak
to
it
more
but
for
acquisition
and
I
think
we
just
had
2
million
that
we
just
put
out
recently-
and
you
know
clearly
that's
not
enough,
but
it's
a
start
so
Karen
do
you
want
to
speak
a
little
more
to
that
fund?
Sure.
M
Hi
Councilwoman,
we
actually
followed
lead
and
I
will
say:
PID
C
created
a
commercial
real
estate
acquisition
loan
fund
as
a
pilot
and
has
done
have
done
a
few
loans.
Most
recently
Tawaf
a
haircare
up
on
a
longtime
business
on
North
22nd
Street
received
a
loan
to
buy
her
building.
We
wanted
to
follow
suit.
Recognizing
again.
This
was
a
year
ago
that
how
much
need
there
is
for
sort
of
local
control
and
building
local
wealth.
M
B
B
Airing
on
Sophie
Silvia
team.
Thank
you
so
much
for
your
testimony
and
your
answer
to
the
questions
I'm
sure
as
in
the
past,
if
anybody
has
any
questions
they
could
email
you
you
guys
are
great
at
getting
back
to
us
at
our
stead
and
we
really
appreciate
that
because
it's
important
that
everybody
comes
up
with
a
new
question
that
we
don't
know
the
answer
to,
and
you
guys
are
there
to
help
us
out.
We
really
do
appreciate
it.
B
A
M
L
To
say
it's
100%
beyond
tragic,
we
we
had
to
and
Commissioner
Olli
can
kind
of
chime
in
on
us
that
we
have
to
ensure
that
we
support
all
the
direct
funding.
Anything
we
cut
in
prevention.
We
either
be
cutting
child
care,
we'd
be
cutting
after-school
programs,
be
cutting
work,
ready
program,
we'd,
be
cutting
juvenile
justice
diversion
program,
so
I,
don't
think,
there's
any
cuts.
The
DA
just
could
have
put
forward.
L
That
would
have
felt
good
to
anybody,
and
so
one
of
the
ways
that
we
looked
at
prioritizing
was
what
are
the
absolute
that
around
legislative
requirements
and
things
that
we've
known
and
heard
from
this
council
body?
Absolutely
so,
while
other
cities
completely
eliminated
their
workforce
development
dollars
or
didn't,
run
those
programs,
we
make
those.
M
Just
because
I
don't
have
a
lot
of
time
so
but
out,
but
I
really
want
to
make
the
point
that
this
is
a
mistake.
This
is
a
big
mistake
and
I
also
want
to
parlay
that
into
further
conversation,
because
I
had
that
I
had
with
the
Commissioner
of
Parks
and
Recreation,
who
apparently
hates
me
so
much
for
asking
her.
What
is
the
plan
for
our
youth
for
the
summer
so
previously
when
she
was?
As
you
know,
I
asked
her
in
the
beginning
of
the
budget
hearings.
M
M
And
so
you
are.
If
we
are
going
to
have
another
long
hot
summer,
you
know
we
have
a
15
year
old,
shot
and
killed
I
believe
last
night
or
early
this
morning,
I
mean
you
know.
What
is
the
investment
going
to
be
in
our
young
people
relative
to
summer
activities
to
keeping
them
safe
and
productive
and
and
with
the
activities
this
summer?
And
so
what
are
we
going
to
do
about
further
investment?
So.
M
M
L
L
M
L
L
L
L
N
So,
in
terms
of
our
removal
rate,
ths
is
still
high,
so
we
still
acknowledge
that
our
new
rate
is
high.
However,
when
we
think
about
the
past
three
years,
we
have
been
shrinking
in
the
right
direction.
So,
to
give
you
a
sense
in
2015
removal
rate
was
too
removal
rate
was
10.5.
That
was
them
at
the
week
of
the
new
legislation
that
added
several
child
welfare
laws,
but
as
of
2018,
which
is
the
latest
data
is
7.6.
We
compare
to
other
jurisdictions
who
are
like.
N
Weight
as
well
as
placement
population,
our
PMT
team,
was
actually
looking
at
the
trends
so
going
beyond
the
past
three
years.
Looking
at
the
trends
in
the
past
five
years,
we
want
to
continue
to
reduce
our
placement
population
by
another
12
percent
in
the
next
three
years.
So
we
want
to
continue
to
do
this
they're.
Looking
at
about
a
four
percent
reduction
each
fiscal
year.
N
N
We
monitor
their
outcomes
around
whether
or
not
the
permanent
living
arrangement
when
they
exit
I
care,
whether
or
not
they
have
a
source
of
income
when
they
exit
I
care
and
whether
or
not
they
have
a
life
connection
when
they
exit
our
care.
So
when
we
look
at
those
three
metrics,
the
young
people
exit
our
care,
we
consider
our
permanent
living
arrangement.
We
stay
a
permanent
living
arrangement.
In
fact
they
achieve
some
sort
of
permanence
or
adoption
PLC
reunification
with
their
parents.
We
are
at
sixty
percent
in
terms
of
those
young
people.
N
It
doesn't
mean
that
they
cannot
remain
in
their
apartment.
Setting
it's
just.
It
just
means
that
DHS
has
not
reunified
them
with
their
parent,
the
young
person.
Here
we
look
at
the
source
of
income
for
that
young
person.
The
source
of
income
is
about.
48
percent
indicate
that
they
left
with
a
stable
source
of
income.
N
Again
we
view
that
as
a
good
measure
in
that
we
encourage
our
young
people
to
remain
in
school,
so
to
be
in
school
most
time
our
young
people
are
in
school
and
you
have
and
in
term
of
life
connections,
because
we
want
to
make
sure
the
young
people
are
connected
with
someone
just
in
case
they
are
times
when
they
exit
our
system.
We're
also
looking
at.
A
N
Actually
sent
out
a
directive
to
DHS
staff,
our
community
umbrella
agencies,
as
well
as
our
community-based
providers,
in
that
we
did
not
want
to
discharge
any
older
youth
from
our
system
without
having
a
plan,
so
we
developed
healing,
so
we
actually
team
those
young
people
to
make
sure
that
they
have
a
plan
before
they
exit
care.
So
no,
we
have
not
discharged
young
people
given.
N
N
L
Definitely
gave
you
more
detail
because
we've
been
looking
at
all
the
different
measures
that
we
believe
we
can
work
in.
Partnership
with
the
district
is
released
to
the
community
schools,
in
addition
to
attendance
and
attachment,
and
also
looking
specifically
on
the
high
school
side,
how
it
links
to
attendance
as
a
direct
correlation
with
graduation
rates.
But
I
will
say
that
we've
been
looking
at
the
fact
that
the
fact
we
can't
expand
in
the
next
year
and
how
future
budgets
might
look
if
we
end
up
in
a
similar
place.
L
L
So,
for
example,
Kim
early
and
I
have
been
talking
about
the
COO
is,
and
how
do
we
make
sure
those
liaisons
with
in
Community
Schools
to
better
create
relationships
between
particular
schools
and
the
COO
is
in
their
neighborhoods
and
also
how
do
we
do
the
parent
cafes
and
some
of
the
other
prevention
services
included
after
schools,
after-school
programs,
but
also
truancy,
because
we've
been
doing
a
lot
of
work
on
the
ground
with
an
schools.
So
we
hope
to
leverage
what
we
have
in
an
existing
work
just
continue
to
support
the
schools.
L
J
I
am
good
morning
almost
afternoon.
Thank
you,
Cynthia
for
your
work.
In
coordinating
with
your
office,
I
am
I,
do
appreciate
the
relationship
I
think
there
are
some
things
that
we've
been
able
to
work
together
and
do
well,
but
I
do
think
there
are
a
couple
of
areas
where
we
still
need
some
clarity,
so
I'm
going
to
try
to
dive
into
some
of
those
things
right
now.
First
thing
you
talked
about
pyn
and
the
reduction
that
they're
taking
so
I
understand
that
young
people's
wage
will
stay.
J
The
same
I'm
wondering
how
many
hours
per
week,
where
young
people
be
permitted
to
work
normally
is
anywhere
from
what
20
hours
a
week
to
about
35.
If
you
reported
a
write
program
or
there
are
those
options
still
want
to
be
the
same
or
will
they
work?
There
be
a
reduction
in
hours
for
youth
work
in
this
summer,
so.
L
Since
the
first
part
of
the
summer,
until
they
get
the
federal
okay
for
the
virtual,
it's
going
to
be
based
on
a
certain
amount
of
engagement.
So
it's
not.
You
know
for
all
ages,
it's
an
hourly
wage
and
this
is
different
because
they're,
not
there,
won't
be
at
a
physical
site
every
day.
They'll
be
virtually
logging
in
so
PIN
has
laid
out
by
which
they
would
have
like
a
total
amount
per
week
that
they're
getting
based
on
meeting
certain
benchmarks
of
engagement.
So.
L
J
J
I
get
it,
but
the
either
way
is
still
gonna
lead
to
a
reduction
in
hours,
and
so
like
I,
really
want
to
just
go
back
to
what
councilmember
Bass
talked
about,
because
I'm,
not
gonna,
say
too
I
want
to
say
we
I,
don't
think
we
are
prepared
to
provide
the
the
needs
that
our
young
people
are
essentially
gonna.
Have
this
summer.
J
I'll
give
you
another
example:
I've
been
talking
about
sports
forever
and
I
know
it's
not
a
priority
to
everybody,
but
I
understand
it's
a
priority
to
our
young
people,
just
aware
that
they
occupy
their
time
in
the
positive
capacity.
We're
now
in
a
yellow
I've,
been
asking
for
so
long
for
somebody
for
the
administration
to
give
us
specific
guidelines
as
to
what
young
people
can
do
as
it
relates
to
sports.
J
We
even
talked
about
the
idea
that
baseball
and
softball
will
probably
have
different
guidelines
than
basketball
and
other
things,
and
so
now,
when
yellow
I
have
a
proof,
Jeong
people
in
my
DM
or
begging
me
to
get
you
Jim
I
have
coaches
and
other
organizations
across
the
city
who
want
to
do
cause
because
they're
trying
to
plan
activities
for
the
summer.
We
do
a
big
event
where
we
bring
professional
sports
players
to
the
city
every
year
containing
rum
classic.
They
know
everybody's
in
limbo.
J
Right
now,
the
entire
sports
community
is
in
limbo,
and
what
makes
it
even
worse
is
that
we
now
see
professional
sports,
starting
in
that
kind
of
dues,
that
indirect
that
the
indirect
message
that
young
people
too
can
participate
in
athletics,
so
I'm,
hoping
that
we
can
as
soon
as
possible,
somehow
have
a
conversation
with
the
Health
Department
or
whether
we
need
to
so.
We
can
communicate
to
the
public
clear
guidelines
of
what
young
people
can
and
can't
do
so.
J
We
can
keep
them
safe
as
well
as
keep
their
time
occupied
and
give
these
adults,
coaches
and
mentors
the
guidelines
they
need
to
provide
and
work
with
us
to
make
sure
that
young
people
have
quality
activity
in
the
summer
time.
Moving
on
to
the
next
thing,
dinner
with
young
people,
I'm
sorry
I
have
limited.
J
Crime
and
murder
go
up
significantly,
always
during
a
pandemic,
but
even
more
last
week,
and
while
young
people
might
not
have
made
the
best
decision,
I
still
think
is
our
responsibility
to
provide
safe
havens
for
no
matter
what
they're
going
through
so
I
knew
that's
a
loaded
question.
If
you
could
just
try
to
keep
the
answer
very
limited,
because
I
actually
have
one
more
and
I,
don't
know
if
I'll
be
able
to
make
it
to
a
second
round.
L
So
I
will
just
say
that
I
know
Kim
can
chairman
that
we've
been
working
very
closely
with
the
DA
and
Accords
etc,
and
through
this
unrest,
I
think
we've
been
incredibly
pleased
to
see
that
our
population
did
not
skyrocket.
We
have
continued
to
be
challenged
by
having
kids
who
have
gotten
arrested
for
very
serious
crimes,
but
they
are.
The
police
department
is
following
suit
in
terms
of
just
trying
to
use
diversion.
N
J
No
disrespect
we
just
talked
to
the
district
attorney
the
other
day,
and
we
know
that
the
rest
rate
right
now
on
crime
is
extremely
low
right
and
so
because
the
arrest
rate
is
low.
That
means
that
the
young
people
that
you're
talking
about
specifically
right,
where
you're
not
seeing
an
increase.
That
means
that,
because
the
that's
because
nobody
was
arrested,
so
what
I'm
saying
is
this
right?
I'm
thinking
specifically
about
the
young
person
who
not
because,
in
order
for
somebody
to
be
arrested,
somebody
had
to
call
9-1-1
and
communicate
the
crowd?
J
What
I'm
saying
to
you
is
that
we
have
a
large
demographic
of
young
people
who
they're
not
calling
9-1-1,
because
the
way
that
they
got
what
they
got
wasn't
legal.
So
if
I
got
something
illegally
right,
I'm
not
going
to
call
9-1-1
when
someone
then
does
something
to
me
to
take
what
I
got
illegally.
So
what
I'm
saying
is
this
we're
in
the
middle
of
the
issue
right
now
where
young
people
have
committed
negative
activities
and
is
turning
into
a
ripple
effect,
and
they
don't
want
to
report
it
I'm
communicating
a
demographic
that
I
know.
J
We
have
to
think
about
and
I
know,
that
you
didn't
directly
create
this
problem,
but
we
have
to
directly
think
about
that
demographic
and
figure
out.
What
can
we
do
the
Charter
for
to
support
them?
I
know
my
time
is
up
I,
just
I
really
need
you
to,
and
we
can
archive
that
and
maybe
get
a
written
response.
I
really
need
somebody
just
to
talk
to
talk
to
me
about
housing
and
the
city
of
Philadelphia,
specifically,
the
impact
between
housing
and
placement.
J
I'm
told
that
the
majority
of
young
people
who
are
in
placement
because
of
DHS
is
because
of
our
housing
issues,
because
their
parents
can't
get
into
the
pit
space
of
adequate
housing
for
them
to
be
able
to
get
their
child
back
I
wondering
how
much
truth
it
is
today
and
what
would
you
recommend
them
if
there
is
truth
to
it?
What
do
you
recommend
that
we
on
council
do
in
the
world
of
housing
to
address
this
issue
of
placement?
Thank
you.
Mr.
chairman,.
L
They
really
prioritized
items
for
child
care,
which
you
could
imagine,
was
incredibly
extensive
and
involved
and
then
the
next
they
moved
on
to
summer
camp.
So
councilman,
Thomas
I,
hear
you
loud
and
clear.
I'm
gonna
ask
that
we
prioritize
and
escalate
the
need
for
youth
sports,
because
we
know
that's
so
critical
for
so
many
of
our
young
people
this
summer.
Mr.
J
Chairman
just
a
point
for
clarity,
real
quick,
first
of
all,
thank
you
for
the
article,
but
secondly,
I
can
confirm
that
most
of
the
sports
community
in
the
city
of
Philadelphia
does
not
know
that
Sports
is
not
permitted
right
now
and
that's
why
I
said.
That's
a
that's.
Why
I
said
we
need
clear-cut
guidelines,
make
contact
yeah
and
when
people
can
start
people
playing
sports,
they
are
they
were
yesterday.
J
B
B
F
B
G
G
L
I'll
talk
about
the
mechanics
in
terms
of
how
we're
working
with
the
state
and
Kim
can
talk
about
how
we've
been
preparing
locally
in
Philadelphia.
So
it
is
a
federal
legislation
and
a
state
can
opt
in
our
state
has
has
decided
to
delay
it.
One
of
the
determinations
about
delaying
it
is
in
order
to
benefit
from
some
of
the
resources
is
that
there
has
to
be
evidence-based
practices
that
are
utilized
on
the
prevention,
so
they
will
only
reimburse
particular
kinds
of
programs
and
in
child
welfare.
L
There
is
not
a
large
number
of
evidence-based
programs,
and
so
we've
been
working
to
support
how
we
build
that
up
in
Philadelphia
and
Kimberly
can
talk
about
it,
but
we
sit
on
probably
too
many
committees
and
too
many
task
force
at
the
state
level
and
I
would
say
that
Philadelphia
has
been
actually
playing
applying
a
lot
of
pressure
on
the
state
we
got
in
regards
to
families
for
so
I'm.
Pretty
sure
that
you
bring
this
up
because
I
think
it
could
ultimately
be
a
huge
benefit
because
it
emphasizes
prevention
of
replacement.
N
Yes,
so
what
I
would
add
is
just
to
indicate
that
Philadelphia
County
will
begin
family
first
implementation
on
July
1st
of
2021,
as
Cynthia
indicated
Pennsylvania
the
Commonwealth
of
Pennsylvania
elected
to
opt
into
family.
First,
we
were
supposed
to
start
this
October.
However,
it
has
been
delayed
to
July
1st
planes
were
the
one.
We
knew
that
being
able
to
get
ourselves
ready.
N
L
Correct
so
we
can
only
get
a
transition
money
once
you've
opted
in
and
the
timeline
begins.
So,
for
example,
New
York
State
opted
in
in
New,
York
City
I
believe
got
20
million
up
to
five
hundred,
but
we
hope
that
when
we
opt-in
that
the
state
will
get
transition
dollars
and
certainly
we
would
want
to
leverage
to
make
sure
that
Philadelphia
is
going
to
get
as
much
of
the
transition
money
as
possible.
G
I
Things
that
are
happening
so
you
know
I'm,
really
interested
in
and
you
can
quickly
double
America
quickly.
Kind
of
you
know
right
what
are
the
articulated
goals
around
the
zero
to
sixteen
continuum
as
you
look
to
align
preschool
as
some
of
the
education
part
of
your
portfolio,
one
or
two
or
three
things
that
you
can
quickly
articulate
that
you
work
on
so.
L
We
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
targeting
keeping
on
track
for
graduation
and
easy
and
direct
access
to
post-secondary
and
with
we
I
think
we
lose
our
eye
on
the
prize
zero
to
sixteen,
knowing
that
post-secondary
needs
to
lead
to
vocational
tech
or
escape
stability
and
sustainable
wages
for
families
and
for
me,
I've,
been
thinking
about
this
continuum
of
kids,
but
that
it
has
to
be
under.
You
know
it
has
to
be
held
up
by
their
families.
L
So
if
we're
talking
about
kids
being
healthy
and
ready
to
learn
when
they
enter
school,
we
know
that
that
is
significant
investments
in
their
families
and
how
we
align
the
supports
and
what
that
we're
doing
around
that.
So
these
are
some
quick
ways
that
we've
been
thinking
about
it
around
milestones
that
I've
been
talking
about.
L
I
L
L
So
we've
been
trying
to
focus
on
making
sure
that
resources
that
we
support
on
the
front
end
that
are
not
behavioral
health,
but
might
be
behavioral
related,
so
that
a
kid
that
might
be
acting
out
in
class,
etc
targeting
resources
and
suppose
on
the
DHS
I
just
support
so
that
it's
not
only
kids.
That.
I
One
of
my
concerns
as
we
rolled
this
out
and
we
have
many
different
systems,
all
providing
interventions
for
families
and
I
know
people
have
very:
very
providers
can
be
in
a
household
and
to
highlight
an
amplifier
Isaiah
Thomas
said
you
know
you
can
have
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
in
intervention
and
a
family
and
they
just
got
a
leak.
Somebody
better
fix
the
leak
degree.
So
what?
If
anything
with
you
know,
because
you're
on
the
board
of
cbh
and
others?
I
L
I'm
gonna
ask
him
to
so
just
like
the
way
the
bylaws
are
set
up.
I
actually
am
no
longer
on
this
ADH
board.
It's
actually
Kimberly
Ollie's,
serving
as
the
Commissioner
of
DHS
is
on
the
board
of
cbh,
but
that
I
think
you
bring
up
an
excellent
point
and
part
of
the
work
of
the
cabinet
is
to
look
at
this
exact
issue.
L
We
to
move
this
model
in
the
kuis
system
in
terms
of
one
one
case
manager
for
one
family,
but
we
still
know
that
there's
a
dynamic
if
you
have
child
welfare,
behavioral
health
and
other
systems
involved
that
it
could
be
provider.
So
I
still
think
this
is
something
that
needs
our
attention
a
little
bit
about
how
you
guys
are
coordinating
around
cbh.
N
So
I
would
talk
about
in
terms
of
CPAs.
We
recognize
that
they
are
the
expert
in
terms
of
behavioral
health
and
that
DHS,
of
course,
is
the
expert
relates
to
child
welfare.
Again,
the
work
that
we
are
doing
in
the
front
end
around
diverting
families.
It's
just
that
we
recognize
that
a
family
should
be
served
from
one
of
our
partners,
for
example
behavioral
health,
and
we
get
them
to
the
table
if
they
be
concrete
goods,
because
there
is
not
available
hours
for
CPAs
to
pay
for
those,
the
DHS
will
pay
for
them.
N
So
we
do
have
a
carve
out
in
terms
of
assisting
families
or
prevention
dollars
in
order
to
prevent
the
removal
of
a
young
person
from
their
home
or
to
reunify.
And
then
we
look
at
the
carve
out
about
50%
of
those
children
who
received
those
services.
It
is
about
300
children
who
receive
them
last
fiscal
year,
fifty
percent
went
to
housing,
so
went
to
housing
needs
whether
that
is
rental
assistance.
N
Whether
there
is
utility
assistance,
whether
there
was
some
repair
work
that
they
needed
in
their
home
and
then
the
other
50%
is
used
for
concrete
goods,
and
those
concrete
is
tends
to
be
beds,
for
example,
dressers
living
room
sets
or
dining
rooms.
That's
again,
because
we
do
not
want
young
people
to
remain
in
the
child
welfare
system
where
we
can
provide
them
the
service
that
they
need.
They
are
families
who
need
support,
as
opposed
to
only
child
welfare.
N
I
You
and
then
finally,
deputy
mayor
Figaro,
you
are
one
of
the
conveners
or
facilitators
of
this
new
conciliation.
L
Those
who've
been
identified
to
date
to
help
us
think,
through
both
short
and
long
term,
action
why?
The
best
piece
is
a
lot
of
great
voices,
but
also
large.
So
the
initial
was
that
there's
immediate
requests
to
look
at
bold
positions
to
take
that
address
poverty
and
address
policing,
and
so
that
that
particularly
there's
the
Councilwoman
books
has
been
part
of
the
police
reform
coalition.
I
Over
the
last
week,
what
if
any
conversations
you've
been
a
part
of
as
it
relates
to
your
current
budget?
You
know
I'm,
making
a
personal
request
that
the
administration
not
just
expect
council
to
make
do
all
the
heavy
lifting
I'm
really
hopeful
that
over
there
next
week,
department
by
Department.
All
of
you
come
back
and
really
give
us
a
sense
of
how
you
have
realigned
your
budgets
to
make
some
of
those
so
that
we
again,
we
show
them.
I
Activities
so
again,
council
was
not
shy
about
reprioritizing,
but
I.
Think
if
the
administration
is
saying
we
heard
you,
then
a
lot
of
those
items
need
to
be
restored,
rethought
reimagined
and
this
before
we
finish
this
budget
process
and
again
I
haven't
seen
it
yet.
The
mayor
stated
last
Thursday
next
week
we
actually
get
to
see
it.
F
F
If,
if
other
people
have
weighed
in
on
this,
they
did
want
to
follow
up
with
a
little
bit
of
what
councilmember
Parker
wanted
to
ask
about
what
is
happening
with
pre-k
in
our
city
and
sort
of
the
decimation
of
you
know
some
very
important
neighborhood
owned
female-owned
black
owned
businesses
in
communities,
but
also
doing
essential
services.
So
can
you
do
you
know
what
is
the
current
slot
allocation
in
usage
for
Philly
pre-k
and
what
those
slot
levels
remain
for
next
year?
So.
L
The
budget
proposal
that
was
submitted
in
terms
of
the
reductions
took
away
our
expansion,
so
we
were
funded
this
current
fiscal
year
at
3300
seats
and
a
proposal
that
we
submitted
remains
level
at
3,300
seats.
Childhood
centers,
as
you
know,
were
closed
during
that
time,
including
another
of
the
ones
that
we
fund,
but
we
did
support
and
maintain
a
lot
of
advocacy
with
a
lot
of
our
friends
in
the
advocacy
arena
to
ensure
that
we
could
continue
to
pay
providers
for
their
work
so
that,
just
as
you
said,
that
would
be
they
wouldn't
be
decimated.
L
L
L
L
Those
sites
and
I
will
say
that
I
want
a
huge
thanks
to
the
Health
Department
they've
done
really
a
tremendous
job
and
giving
us
the
amount
of
guidance
that
is
necessary
because,
still,
while
it's
opening
it's
limited
to
a
certain
number
of
kid
per
classroom
and
trying
to
maintain
the
same
teachers,
etc
with
the
same
cohort
of
kids
and
I.
Think
you're.
I'm.
Sorry
will,
you
repeat,
the
second
part
of
your
question
of
us
are.
F
Mean
you
know,
as
as
we
start
to
phase
in
the
reopening
of
the
city,
you
know
our
hope
is
that,
certainly
through
the
co
big
crisis,
you
know
we
really
wanted
to
prioritize
supports
for
the
essential
workers,
because
there
it's
been
so
important.
Okay.
Well,
thank
you.
Thank
you.
The
one
other
question.
F
C
So
we've
been
working
with
the
State
Department
for
there's
a
federal
allocation
as
well
as
the
School
District
of
Philadelphia
I
can
share
here
that
the
School
District
of
Philadelphia
had
their
conversation
with
the
federal
government
to
get
their
reallocation.
They
were
gonna,
keep
their
head
start
funding
at
the
same
level
and
I
think
that
was
at
1500
seats,
four
four
and
five-year-old
or
three
to
five
year
olds.
F
Okay,
I
mean
one
of
the
things
that
I
was
wondering
if
the
city
can
do
while
were
in
different
phases
and
not
fully
open,
is
whether
we're
taking
a
look
at
shortages
of
pre-k
or
headstart
in
certain
sections
of
the
city
and
whether
we're
doing
kind
of
an
equity
analysis
in
terms
of
access
to
early
childhood.
So
what
what
are
like,
where
what
stage
of
things
are
you
on
on
some
of
that
yeah.
C
We
work
in
great
collaboration
with
the
school
district
to
strategize,
on
where
we
do
put
those
seats.
I'll
say
that
you
know
this
is
the
fourth
year
of
entering
the
phl
pre-k
program
and
maybe
in
years
1
&
2
that
wasn't
done
as
strongly,
but
I
can
say
that
for
year,
four
the
allocation
of
seats
is
being
done
in
partnership
with
the
school
district
in
with
octo
to
put
them
in
places
and
spaces
across
the
city
that
most
need
them,
and
now
we're
not
duplicating
that's
those
places
that
have
some
vacancies.
F
All
right,
that's
very
helpful.
Deputy
mayor,
Figaro
I'm
sure
we'll
follow
up
a
little
bit
later.
I
feel
like
we
can
talk
a
little
bit
more.
There
are
some
questions.
I
had
about
truancy
and
just
you
know
we
have
had
such
a
disjointed
school
year
and,
of
course,
with
the
district
being
online
and
really
struggling
with
it.
F
I
worry
about
young
people,
you
know
breaking
away
from
systems
and
whether
we
start
the
school
year
with
you
know
a
more
aggressive
approach
around
how
to
talk
about
truancy
a
little
bit
better
so
that
we're
really
thoughtful
about
ways
to
you
know
bring
people
in
and
making
sure
that
we're
taking
a
look
at
the
truancy
rates
and
practices
got
a
lot
of
engagement
and
interest
on
that
level.
But
we
can
talk
about
those
things
a
little
bit
later,
but
I
think
that's
something
that
we
can
start.
Is
that
something
you're
open
to
talking
about?
F
F
Okay
and
my
only
last
statement
is
you
know,
as
you're
working
on
your
very
important
role
on
the
conciliation
task
force.
Our
hope
is
that
we
can
also
make
sure
that
some
of
the
work
approaches
around
policing
that
we
have
seen
people
come
out
to
oppose.
We
also
see
in
our
public
schools,
so
we
have
1/3
more
police
officers
than
we
do
counselors
in
our
public
schools,
almost
400
police
officers
compared
to
280
from
counsellors,
and
so
we
really
want
to
alter
that
scenario.

So
far,
the
city
has
been
a
great
partner
with
it,
including
cbh
and
others
partnering,
to
get
social
workers
into
our
schools,
to
do
the
step
programs
and
to
help
reimagine,
but
I
do
think
that
the
frustration
and
anger
that
has
been
seen
on
our
streets
around
policing
is
also
very
prevalent
in
a
school
to
Prison
Pipeline.
That
starts
with,
like
metal
detectors
from
the
moment.
You
walk
in
surveillance,
camera
security
officers
and
policing,
/
counseling
and
the
mental
health
support
that
we've
heard
time
and
time
again
from
our
young
people.

He
was
a
special
advisor
and
heading
up
the
public
safety
at
the
school
district.
He
was
the
architect
of
the
diversion
program
where
we
stopped
worked
in
partnership
with
DHS
the
police
department
district
attorney
to
make
sure
we
stopped
arresting
youth
in
schools
for
minor
offenses
and
actually
moving
them
into
a
diversionary
program.
The
funding
that
Commissioner
oddly
supports
through
the
juvenile
justice
program,
so
I
just
say,
say:
I
think
that
we
have
a
great
asset
and
chief
Beppo
and
dr.
heit
our
willingness
to
think
I
think
more
globally.
