to be served to find us houss with

122
00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:34,920
incomes of 80% of area medium

123
00:40:30,359 --> 00:40:36,000
income so um what here's how I'm going

124
00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:38,520
to go through this I'm going to tell you

125
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:41,240
what's happened so far and then where

126
00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:45,720
it's headed and then I'll answer your

127
00:40:41,240 --> 00:40:47,520
questions um thus far um BC and I had uh

128
00:40:45,720 --> 00:40:49,599
about a $200,000 Grant from the

129
00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:51,760
Enterprise Foundation to all the to do

130
00:40:49,599 --> 00:40:53,640
all the prep work which is required to

131
00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:57,560
get the big state money to come in to

132
00:40:53,640 --> 00:41:00,400
round the whole project out um um I I've

133
00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:04,800
worked with most of you on stuff before

134
00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:08,240
but not all of you so um you know as

135
00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:09,480
general context I would say what this

136
00:41:08,240 --> 00:41:12,359
starts with the federal government what

137
00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:15,119
the federal government set as guidelines

138
00:41:12,359 --> 00:41:17,880
and rules for funding affordable housing

139
00:41:15,119 --> 00:41:19,880
is incredibly complicated um and it

140
00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:23,640
takes a long time so all of that is

141
00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:27,160
within that context so so far um on

142
00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:29,640
those uh properties um with the

143
00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:32,960
Enterprise funds the site control has

144
00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:35,280
been achieved integrated pH physical

145
00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:37,960
needs assessment has been done by it

146
00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:40,359

by Troy architecture practice the shipo

153
00:41:53,000 --> 00:42:00,560

155
00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:05,160

were done by Christa the identification

161
00:42:13,839 --> 00:42:17,760
of the financing partner will be

162
00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:20,520
Community preservation corporations BC

163
00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:22,119
and I did that

164
00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:24,359
um

165
00:42:22,119 --> 00:42:26,480
um you know there are a couple different

166
00:42:24,359 --> 00:42:29,800
I'm a path to Victory guy and so you

167
00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:31,319
always have to figure out what pots of

168
00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:32,720
money does the state have and how are

169
00:42:31,319 --> 00:42:35,440
they going to do it I think we're this

170
00:42:32,720 --> 00:42:38,359
is going to track towards home ownership

171
00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:40,599
opportunity for most of the units um

172
00:42:38,359 --> 00:42:42,319
I'll talk more about that in a

173
00:42:40,599 --> 00:42:44,640
minute

174
00:42:42,319 --> 00:42:46,880
um all right so then the rest of this is

175
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:48,920
now is

176
00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:51,200
all that's the key stuff that you need

177
00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:54,920
to know so the the funding secured to

178
00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:58,599
date um the Enterprise funds I mentioned

179
00:42:54,920 --> 00:43:01,000
is $194,000 $960 was that Grant with

180
00:42:58,599 --> 00:43:04,319
possibility for more Community Loan Fund

181
00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:10,079
of $84,200 the arpa friends from the

182
00:43:04,319 --> 00:43:14,040
city um Congressman Taco has uh advanced

183
00:43:10,079 --> 00:43:19,480
$750,000 in in um Congressional funds

184
00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:19,480
pending a um actual federal

185
00:43:20,599 --> 00:43:27,079
budget um and um all right now I don't

186
00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:31,640
need my notes anymore I can talk from

187
00:43:27,079 --> 00:43:34,240
here so from this point forward

188
00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:37,240
um the local foundations have come in

189
00:43:34,240 --> 00:43:39,119
we've have we have two offers from local

190
00:43:37,240 --> 00:43:41,040
foundations one of them for home

191
00:43:39,119 --> 00:43:43,480
ownership this is a softer one that

192
00:43:41,040 --> 00:43:45,760
would be north north of a half a million

193
00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:50,160
dollars another one a harder one which

194
00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:51,839
would be a seven figure Grant if we used

195
00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:56,599
all of the units to

196
00:43:51,839 --> 00:43:59,000
place um single mothers who

197
00:43:56,599 --> 00:44:02,160
with children who needed somewhere to go

198
00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:03,559
so this means we have you know this is

199
00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:06,160
kind of when you think back to how we

200
00:44:03,559 --> 00:44:09,440
got Boys and Girls Club done and uh

201
00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:11,440
Bethesda house funded it was City County

202
00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:13,400
working together with local foundations

203
00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:15,880
to identify a need get the right not for

204
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:17,640
profit involved then allocate our

205
00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:19,520
resources strategically the state loves

206
00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:23,480
that they come in the state has said to

207
00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:25,680
us at this point we like the basis of

208
00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:27,880
this and um a lot of you have worked

209
00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:30,800
with Darren Scott who's the regional

210
00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:32,800
director of HCR for this part of the

211
00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:35,520
state he has said he's going to come and

212
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:40,440
sit down and plot out which of the state

213
00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:42,160
pots is most ripe for this so um I think

214
00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:44,000
I should stop it's a lot of talking for

215
00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:46,040
me so I'll stop talking and answer your

216
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:49,040
questions but I think where we are at

217
00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:50,720
this point is a lot of this Spade workor

218
00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:53,200
I read that whole boring list because

219
00:44:50,720 --> 00:44:54,520
it's all the stuff that um people in the

220
00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:56,920
public don't see but it's the

221
00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:59,839
prerequisite for the state to come in

222
00:44:56,920 --> 00:45:01,920
we've got all that done we have um the

223
00:44:59,839 --> 00:45:04,640
various different pots of local money

224
00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:06,079
lined up and the state is now saying

225
00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:08,599
yeah we like the trajectory this is

226
00:45:06,079 --> 00:45:11,040
going on we'll sit down and figure out

227
00:45:08,599 --> 00:45:13,079
um how you know which path to go down

228
00:45:11,040 --> 00:45:16,960
they have to rank and score them but if

229
00:45:13,079 --> 00:45:20,160
you think back to um the Craig Street

230
00:45:16,960 --> 00:45:22,599
project Hillside view um Mosaic which

231
00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:25,240
got funded in Mount Pleasant last year

232
00:45:22,599 --> 00:45:28,040
Bethesda house all those went through

233
00:45:25,240 --> 00:45:30,119
one or two applications and I think on

234
00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:32,880
um Hillside view it was actually the

235
00:45:30,119 --> 00:45:34,680
fourth time it was funded so I think

236
00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:38,000
where we are is the worst thing that can

237
00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:40,160
happen here is that maybe the state says

238
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:42,119
apply here we apply once they don't fund

239
00:45:40,160 --> 00:45:44,000
it but they say here's what you do to

240
00:45:42,119 --> 00:45:47,160
get the points to get it over the Finish

241
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:50,119
Line um all

242
00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:52,400
right it's a lot of minutia for me so

243
00:45:50,119 --> 00:45:54,319
I'll be quiet and answer your questions

244
00:45:52,400 --> 00:45:55,920
so what is your shortfall on funding for

245
00:45:54,319 --> 00:45:58,559
the project what is the overall cost of

246
00:45:55,920 --> 00:45:59,960
the project and what is the um what's

247
00:45:58,559 --> 00:46:02,520
the Gap in funding you know it's an

248
00:45:59,960 --> 00:46:04,480
affordable housing project so that

249
00:46:02,520 --> 00:46:06,720
number always moves

250
00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:09,640
around we're probably going to ask the

251
00:46:06,720 --> 00:46:11,400
state in the neighborhood of5 or $6

252
00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:15,000
million I would

253
00:46:11,400 --> 00:46:16,480
say for the total project for the state

254
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:18,240
so I think total would be between eight

255
00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:20,599
and nine

256
00:46:18,240 --> 00:46:22,359
okay but I'm I'm doing I'm doing

257
00:46:20,599 --> 00:46:23,960
estimates because I mean when you do

258
00:46:22,359 --> 00:46:24,800
these affordable housing things until

259
00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:26,920
the

260
00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:28,839
closing

261
00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:30,960
there's no number

262
00:46:28,839 --> 00:46:33,200
okay so when would you know about the

263
00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:33,200
state

264
00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:39,800
funding um it depends what route would

265
00:46:36,319 --> 00:46:42,440
they go they have their own big

266
00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:44,440
um RFP they're getting ready to put out

267
00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:46,160
with with what they're calling home arpa

268
00:46:44,440 --> 00:46:50,480
money I actually think that's what they

269
00:46:46,160 --> 00:46:53,200
hired Kristen de to write and they're

270
00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:59,640
like more than 6 months behind schedule

271
00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:59,640
on issuing it so um um I you know they

272
00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:04,160
they the funding Cycles take six to n

273
00:47:02,359 --> 00:47:05,920
months they generally

274
00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:08,280
do

275
00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:09,880
okay and so I think part of the other

276
00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:13,800
thing is you're asking for an

277
00:47:09,880 --> 00:47:17,440
extension yeah I think yeah go ahead so

278
00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:17,440
so how long is the extension

279
00:47:17,480 --> 00:47:24,000
request sure I hear that's for a year

280
00:47:20,839 --> 00:47:26,200
all right so then what I would what

281
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:27,480
request is for a year and then we work

282
00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:29,839
with Brian Lawler who was the state

283
00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:31,359
housing commissioner and did for 30

284
00:47:29,839 --> 00:47:34,960
years the closings for the state on

285
00:47:31,359 --> 00:47:37,319
these things um he's an expert on all of

286
00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:39,520
the rules so we would ask Brian to sit

287
00:47:37,319 --> 00:47:41,040
with um whoever you wanted him to sit

288
00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:42,839
with to make sure all the rules were

289
00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:44,480
followed and you know what I mean

290
00:47:42,839 --> 00:47:47,440
because you've got on the arpa funding

291
00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:49,960
you've got your set of rules from the

292
00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:52,839
treasur treasury has their set of rules

293
00:47:49,960 --> 00:47:54,319
yeah yeah yeah so I do I do think that

294
00:47:52,839 --> 00:47:57,640
with

295
00:47:54,319 --> 00:48:00,720
um your staff involvement and Brian's

296
00:47:57,640 --> 00:48:03,400
involvement Bri very good at making sure

297
00:48:00,720 --> 00:48:05,760
the rules are followed So within a year

298
00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:09,079
we we'd have a path the state

299
00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:11,000
would have it on a path so funing path

300
00:48:09,079 --> 00:48:12,359
that satisfied the rules well the rules

301
00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:15,880
are that it has to be allocated by the

302
00:48:12,359 --> 00:48:18,400
end of 2024 and then spent by the end of

303
00:48:15,880 --> 00:48:21,599
I'm confident we can figure that out

304
00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:25,160
other questions Mr Mr Williams Mr

305
00:48:21,599 --> 00:48:27,040
Williams to the C okay um so you would

306
00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:28,280
mind clar you said at one point that

307
00:48:27,040 --> 00:48:30,119
there were two different directions the

308
00:48:28,280 --> 00:48:31,800
project could go in one being home

309
00:48:30,119 --> 00:48:33,440
ownership and the other one single uh

310
00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:36,400
single mother households is that a

311
00:48:33,440 --> 00:48:38,119
decision that bcni has come to or are

312
00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:39,280
you still evaluating the funds that

313
00:48:38,119 --> 00:48:42,119
you're going to receive and does that

314
00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:42,119
affect the project

315
00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:48,799
scope that will have to a lot to do with

316
00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:51,400
the timing of what the state

317
00:48:48,799 --> 00:48:53,520
says they have funds available for sort

318
00:48:51,400 --> 00:48:57,079
of first second third and

319
00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:58,680
fourth I think that from my seat as

320
00:48:57,079 --> 00:49:00,680
president of the board of bcni and my

321
00:48:58,680 --> 00:49:04,040
seat at the foundation I think we have

322
00:49:00,680 --> 00:49:06,480
critical mass to do both over the next

323
00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:09,240
couple of years it's a matter of which

324
00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:12,799
funding path presents itself first we

325
00:49:09,240 --> 00:49:14,839
have a we have a need for both we have

326
00:49:12,799 --> 00:49:16,599
some government funding set up for both

327
00:49:14,839 --> 00:49:20,400
we have strong commitments from local

328
00:49:16,599 --> 00:49:22,160
foundations for both the another one of

329
00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:26,520
the tricks of these affordable housing

330
00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:28,960
projects is that um smaller is harder to

331
00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:32,520
do if you do 10 units it's harder to do

332
00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:33,920
than 60 units so we're talking about 26

333
00:49:32,520 --> 00:49:37,720
units here you know one thing we could

334
00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:40,040
do is break it and do you know 15 of one

335
00:49:37,720 --> 00:49:42,280
and 11 of another but that actually

336
00:49:40,040 --> 00:49:45,920
makes it harder to fund so we have to

337
00:49:42,280 --> 00:49:47,599
flesh that out with a state um does that

338
00:49:45,920 --> 00:49:49,880
answer your question absolutely yeah CU

339
00:49:47,599 --> 00:49:51,319
it's not it's not there's not um Clear

340
00:49:49,880 --> 00:49:54,520
Cut Black or

341
00:49:51,319 --> 00:49:57,440
White on some of the stuff so I will do

342
00:49:54,520 --> 00:50:00,040
the best I can to give you a correct

343
00:49:57,440 --> 00:50:02,920
answer yes and like with previous

344
00:50:00,040 --> 00:50:04,799
requests that we've had um in terms of

345
00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:07,559
the state funding and the point system

346
00:50:04,799 --> 00:50:10,760
that that Grant would go through is it

347
00:50:07,559 --> 00:50:12,359
your opinion that um obviously what we

348
00:50:10,760 --> 00:50:13,880
do here would help in terms of the

349
00:50:12,359 --> 00:50:16,520
points that you might need to approve

350
00:50:13,880 --> 00:50:18,720
from that state yeah I think I think

351
00:50:16,520 --> 00:50:20,319
there's two answers to that you know

352
00:50:18,720 --> 00:50:22,079
this is what we learned from the library

353
00:50:20,319 --> 00:50:24,040
branches from Boys and Girls Club from

354
00:50:22,079 --> 00:50:27,640
Bethesda house from bunch of the other

355
00:50:24,040 --> 00:50:32,079
projects they do have SC 0 to 100 they

356
00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:33,920
they give you points if you have um

357
00:50:32,079 --> 00:50:35,400
Foundation funny if you have City money

358
00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:38,839
if you have County money all of that

359
00:50:35,400 --> 00:50:41,160
counts but they also like it better they

360
00:50:38,839 --> 00:50:42,480
they you know I think what's motivating

361
00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:43,680
State officials to say we're going to

362
00:50:42,480 --> 00:50:45,799
come meet with you and figure out how to

363
00:50:43,680 --> 00:50:47,960
get this done as they see that skincity

364
00:50:45,799 --> 00:50:50,839
has started to be really successful at

365
00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:53,440
this Formula One and they see it coming

366
00:50:50,839 --> 00:50:55,160
together here and then you know once

367
00:50:53,440 --> 00:50:57,319
they do that they help you choose the

368
00:50:55,160 --> 00:50:59,640
path that's most likely to succeed which

369
00:50:57,319 --> 00:51:02,319
is why I feel comfortable that the worst

370
00:50:59,640 --> 00:51:04,960
thing that will happen is maybe the

371
00:51:02,319 --> 00:51:06,359
first application goes in uh like with

372
00:51:04,960 --> 00:51:08,119
Bethesda house and they came back and

373
00:51:06,359 --> 00:51:10,440
said we're not funding it this year but

374
00:51:08,119 --> 00:51:12,400
you're close and here's what we want you

375
00:51:10,440 --> 00:51:15,280
know if you do one two and three you'll

376
00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:16,799
get it over the Finish Line um and Kim

377
00:51:15,280 --> 00:51:18,040
Shepard and her team did a great job of

378
00:51:16,799 --> 00:51:19,799
doing

379
00:51:18,040 --> 00:51:24,799
that

380
00:51:19,799 --> 00:51:28,040
mayor thank you uh again this project in

381
00:51:24,799 --> 00:51:31,839
the Y W you know are getting some State

382
00:51:28,040 --> 00:51:36,960
attention they good projects uh our

383
00:51:31,839 --> 00:51:40,200
rapport with those agencies is very good

384
00:51:36,960 --> 00:51:43,880
you know the team that's here has uh

385
00:51:40,200 --> 00:51:47,079
good connections good track record and

386
00:51:43,880 --> 00:51:52,079
so I would recommend that some extension

387
00:51:47,079 --> 00:51:53,280
be given in this funding scenario it one

388
00:51:52,079 --> 00:51:55,920
of these things that puts us under

389
00:51:53,280 --> 00:51:58,599
pressure to get them done but at the

390
00:51:55,920 --> 00:52:02,960
same time pointed

391
00:51:58,599 --> 00:52:05,480
out we're not just uh going into a

392
00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:07,559
vacuum and the state weighs other

393
00:52:05,480 --> 00:52:10,000
projects across the

394
00:52:07,559 --> 00:52:13,400
state uh I think we're in a position to

395
00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:17,079
score very high uh in this in the things

396
00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:19,880
that we've done laning up to uh this

397
00:52:17,079 --> 00:52:22,240
application of this process where we've

398
00:52:19,880 --> 00:52:26,119
Consolidated uh two groups brought

399
00:52:22,240 --> 00:52:28,640
together under bcni it's the one

400
00:52:26,119 --> 00:52:31,440
uh time it's been done in the

401
00:52:28,640 --> 00:52:33,480
State uh the governor the legislature

402
00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:35,720
keeps talking about doing housing

403
00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:38,520
initiatives so there's some of the money

404
00:52:35,720 --> 00:52:41,760
that's on the table now and in the

405
00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:44,480
pipeline and there's going to be

406
00:52:41,760 --> 00:52:47,160
something in the next Governor's budget

407
00:52:44,480 --> 00:52:49,280
one way or the other I don't have any

408
00:52:47,160 --> 00:52:53,720
inclination what that is but we want to

409
00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:56,680
be positioned to Advocate and follow up

410
00:52:53,720 --> 00:52:59,400
on any opportunity that exists there so

411
00:52:56,680 --> 00:53:01,920
it's somewhat of a again a dynamic

412
00:52:59,400 --> 00:53:04,799
process but I think we're in Fairly good

413
00:53:01,920 --> 00:53:07,359
shape for a number of things that we're

414
00:53:04,799 --> 00:53:09,559
doing here and our track record of doing

415
00:53:07,359 --> 00:53:11,720
things in the past of actually being

416
00:53:09,559 --> 00:53:14,520
able to implement get things built get

417
00:53:11,720 --> 00:53:16,880
the construction done get the uh

418
00:53:14,520 --> 00:53:19,440
buildings open and get people moved into

419
00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:22,160
them I think the YWCA project that's

420
00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:25,720
been in three times but I think it's not

421
00:53:22,160 --> 00:53:28,280
a path to get funded now yes yeah

422
00:53:25,720 --> 00:53:30,760
I do have one one other tiny question um

423
00:53:28,280 --> 00:53:33,799
has the county contributed any money to

424
00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:36,280
um the project you mentioned so I've

425
00:53:33,799 --> 00:53:37,799
been in Asia for two weeks I'm fresh off

426
00:53:36,280 --> 00:53:40,920
the plane which is not a good use of the

427
00:53:37,799 --> 00:53:42,640
word fresh um I can't remember off the

428
00:53:40,920 --> 00:53:43,760
top of my head but Metroplex is going to

429
00:53:42,640 --> 00:53:44,960
come they're going to now that the

430
00:53:43,760 --> 00:53:46,960
state's coming they're going to come and

431
00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:48,880
figure out what what they have to do to

432
00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:52,799
help get it over the Finish

433
00:53:48,880 --> 00:53:56,000
Line um but does I can't do County have

434
00:53:52,799 --> 00:53:57,599
any money in yet no no thank but we'll

435
00:53:56,000 --> 00:54:00,079
they'll figure it out they'll be part of

436
00:53:57,599 --> 00:54:02,799
the solution thank Madam

437
00:54:00,079 --> 00:54:06,119
president the other feature of this in

438
00:54:02,799 --> 00:54:08,319
terms of the bigger impact is we've done

439
00:54:06,119 --> 00:54:10,599
projects of doing one where it's you

440
00:54:08,319 --> 00:54:14,000
know it's one building that's one site

441
00:54:10,599 --> 00:54:16,520
this is a number of houses throughout

442
00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:18,880
the neighborhood that it's a little bit

443
00:54:16,520 --> 00:54:21,040
more complicated to put it all together

444
00:54:18,880 --> 00:54:24,400
but the impact is going to be far

445
00:54:21,040 --> 00:54:27,079
greater in the overall transition and

446
00:54:24,400 --> 00:54:29,920
visual aspect that's going to happen

447
00:54:27,079 --> 00:54:31,960
within that's complet that's completely

448
00:54:29,920 --> 00:54:33,480
correct I know he brought some visuals

449
00:54:31,960 --> 00:54:35,480
off if you want oh you want to put up

450
00:54:33,480 --> 00:54:38,160
yeah this is sort of what the what the

451
00:54:35,480 --> 00:54:40,520
um all the prep work has yielded that's

452
00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:43,559
absolutely that's that's correct and and

453
00:54:40,520 --> 00:54:44,799
just to to pick up on the mayor's point

454
00:54:43,559 --> 00:54:46,960
you know most

455
00:54:44,799 --> 00:54:49,160
cities this is New York state right and

456
00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:53,079
we have Brooklyn in it we have the Bronx

457
00:54:49,160 --> 00:54:55,720
in Buffalo and most good

458
00:54:53,079 --> 00:54:57,680
most most cities of affordable housing

459
00:54:55,720 --> 00:55:00,160
is all about apartment buildings and

460
00:54:57,680 --> 00:55:02,359
most of the programs are designed for

461
00:55:00,160 --> 00:55:05,040
that kind of construction but for our

462
00:55:02,359 --> 00:55:07,839
city it's very much about single and two

463
00:55:05,040 --> 00:55:10,200
family homes and and taking fixing up

464
00:55:07,839 --> 00:55:12,200
these houses that have been vacated or

465
00:55:10,200 --> 00:55:13,839
left empty and so it does take a little

466
00:55:12,200 --> 00:55:16,040
longer to put the financing together

467
00:55:13,839 --> 00:55:17,520
that is part of it but we but the state

468
00:55:16,040 --> 00:55:20,480
recognizes that they're committed to it

469
00:55:17,520 --> 00:55:22,160
we will figure it out so here's a

470
00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:26,039
cluster here on Germania there's a

471
00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:29,359
cluster on uh SK Street and cluster on

472
00:55:26,039 --> 00:55:31,200
on page okay so this isn't all of them

473
00:55:29,359 --> 00:55:32,520
this is just sampling this is the

474
00:55:31,200 --> 00:55:34,760
sampling the pictures are just a sampl

475
00:55:32,520 --> 00:55:36,640
this just a sampling of the vacant so

476
00:55:34,760 --> 00:55:38,839
the VAC most of them are two family

477
00:55:36,640 --> 00:55:40,440
houses most them are two families just

478
00:55:38,839 --> 00:55:42,680
one single family I kind of like that

479
00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:44,720
for home ownership opportunity for

480
00:55:42,680 --> 00:55:47,359
first-time home buyers because if they

481
00:55:44,720 --> 00:55:50,880
then the person who buys the house as a

482
00:55:47,359 --> 00:55:53,079
firsttime home buyer that is someone who

483
00:55:50,880 --> 00:55:56,160
is for the maybe the first time in

484
00:55:53,079 --> 00:55:58,760
Generations creating an opportunity for

485
00:55:56,160 --> 00:56:00,200
the family to generate savings and

486
00:55:58,760 --> 00:56:02,359
wealth that can be passed on but if it's

487
00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:03,839
a two family home and we do it right the

488
00:56:02,359 --> 00:56:05,839
income they get from the other unit

489
00:56:03,839 --> 00:56:07,599
significantly helps make sure that they

490
00:56:05,839 --> 00:56:09,039
can keep that mortgage those mortgage

491
00:56:07,599 --> 00:56:11,160
payments coming and stick through it see

492
00:56:09,039 --> 00:56:13,359
it all the way through and would have

493
00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:16,920
impact that's another unique feature of

494
00:56:13,359 --> 00:56:18,119
this yeah so that's I mean right now I

495
00:56:16,920 --> 00:56:19,760
I'm kind of cheering for the home

496
00:56:18,119 --> 00:56:22,880
ownership opportunities for this if the

497
00:56:19,760 --> 00:56:25,520
state can do it fast enough because of

498
00:56:22,880 --> 00:56:27,000
what I just said so that's that is I do

499
00:56:25,520 --> 00:56:29,079
have that question are you planning on

500
00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:31,839
keeping any of those properties and then

501
00:56:29,079 --> 00:56:36,280
renting them to people and bcni

502
00:56:31,839 --> 00:56:38,880
remaining the owner proper I mean if if

503
00:56:36,280 --> 00:56:42,680
if if we go the home ownership route for

504
00:56:38,880 --> 00:56:46,520
these properties no if we go the route

505
00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:48,160
of um of developing them so that they

506
00:56:46,520 --> 00:56:50,520
are rented and they are rented for

507
00:56:48,160 --> 00:56:52,240
targeted population like for example

508
00:56:50,520 --> 00:56:53,599
single mothers who need a place to go

509
00:56:52,240 --> 00:56:55,640
those would be rentals that would DC and

510
00:56:53,599 --> 00:56:58,200
I would manage and and they would have

511
00:56:55,640 --> 00:56:59,359
like a u like the isshi program would

512
00:56:58,200 --> 00:57:01,079
come in and fund some of that and there

513
00:56:59,359 --> 00:57:03,760
would be an agreement with scap to

514
00:57:01,079 --> 00:57:05,400
provide the services um and the and the

515
00:57:03,760 --> 00:57:08,079
isshi money would would pay for

516
00:57:05,400 --> 00:57:14,160
something like 65 75% of the

517
00:57:08,079 --> 00:57:18,359
rent so um two paths okay all right Mr

518
00:57:14,160 --> 00:57:20,640
Farley so I guess I'm pretty excited

519
00:57:18,359 --> 00:57:22,880
about the ownership path like I'm I'm

520
00:57:20,640 --> 00:57:25,119
sure that that's probably a little more

521
00:57:22,880 --> 00:57:26,240
complicated um from what I'm got what

522
00:57:25,119 --> 00:57:28,119
you're saying but I definitely think

523
00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:30,119
that that that would be something that I

524
00:57:28,119 --> 00:57:32,839
I would be more excited about as far as

525
00:57:30,119 --> 00:57:36,000
Community impact um I know the federal

526
00:57:32,839 --> 00:57:39,760
guidelines for like U uh lowincome

527
00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:42,400
housing or is a bit dated um and I'm

528
00:57:39,760 --> 00:57:43,960
just wondering is this is the state

529
00:57:42,400 --> 00:57:46,160
guidelines the same as the federal

530
00:57:43,960 --> 00:57:48,039
guidelines and how much autonomy do you

531
00:57:46,160 --> 00:57:50,359
have in that as far as that process like

532
00:57:48,039 --> 00:57:52,359
I know that they have been

533
00:57:50,359 --> 00:57:53,960
um I don't know when the last time they

534
00:57:52,359 --> 00:57:56,599
were updated but last I looked it was it

535
00:57:53,960 --> 00:57:58,280
was it didn't seem like it was really uh

536
00:57:56,599 --> 00:58:01,359
in line with

537
00:57:58,280 --> 00:58:02,480
um kind of today's world numbers I think

538
00:58:01,359 --> 00:58:04,599
you always have to follow the federal

539
00:58:02,480 --> 00:58:06,079
guidelines you guys agree yeah Federal

540
00:58:04,599 --> 00:58:09,280
ground trunk the states if the states

541
00:58:06,079 --> 00:58:10,520
want to do something so I think that

542
00:58:09,280 --> 00:58:13,119
yeah I think the federal ground you have

543
00:58:10,520 --> 00:58:14,960
to follow they probably are out of date

544
00:58:13,119 --> 00:58:16,119
even though my official position is our

545
00:58:14,960 --> 00:58:18,319
colleagues at the federal government are

546
00:58:16,119 --> 00:58:21,039
great Americans and I support

547
00:58:18,319 --> 00:58:23,880
them um it really comes into play when

548
00:58:21,039 --> 00:58:27,240
you rent cuz then the rents have to be

549
00:58:23,880 --> 00:58:29,640
set according to all those rules um when

550
00:58:27,240 --> 00:58:32,240
you do home ownership it's less of an

551
00:58:29,640 --> 00:58:34,680
issue uh because you're qualifying

552
00:58:32,240 --> 00:58:35,920
people for mortgages and helping them

553
00:58:34,680 --> 00:58:37,440
get down payment assistance and then

554
00:58:35,920 --> 00:58:39,680
getting them into the home and then

555
00:58:37,440 --> 00:58:41,119
their payment is based on the mortgage

556
00:58:39,680 --> 00:58:44,680
um very often those mortgage payments

557
00:58:41,119 --> 00:58:47,079
come out to be less than the rents do um

558
00:58:44,680 --> 00:58:49,079
so I agree with you if we can figure out

559
00:58:47,079 --> 00:58:51,400
how to make the home ownership

560
00:58:49,079 --> 00:58:53,039
work that on this that would be great

561
00:58:51,400 --> 00:58:55,920
but if we don't on this one we'll figure

562
00:58:53,039 --> 00:58:58,559
it out on the next one it that that's

563
00:58:55,920 --> 00:59:00,480
coming the the the feds have set that as

564
00:58:58,559 --> 00:59:01,839
a policy priority it's showing up in a

565
00:59:00,480 --> 00:59:04,480
lot of the grant programs where you get

566
00:59:01,839 --> 00:59:06,119
extra points to do it um so we'll see

567
00:59:04,480 --> 00:59:08,039
when the state comes if they say yeah

568
00:59:06,119 --> 00:59:10,039
yeah you've got this this this the three

569
00:59:08,039 --> 00:59:11,960
pots you can go for the incentives are

570
00:59:10,039 --> 00:59:14,599
there for home ownership do it they'll

571
00:59:11,960 --> 00:59:16,359
they'll help us figure out and how to

572
00:59:14,599 --> 00:59:19,799
get it done and you know I hope we're

573
00:59:16,359 --> 00:59:21,960
getting to a point where um the mayor

574
00:59:19,799 --> 00:59:24,079
referenced the YWCA project you know I

575
00:59:21,960 --> 00:59:25,240
feel like that may be the turning point

576
00:59:24,079 --> 00:59:27,920
where we get to

577
00:59:25,240 --> 00:59:29,680
where're connecti is now at a point

578
00:59:27,920 --> 00:59:31,200
where we know we can make these things

579
00:59:29,680 --> 00:59:32,760
happen even if it takes a few years we

580
00:59:31,200 --> 00:59:35,000
have to be patient and persistent and

581
00:59:32,760 --> 00:59:37,280
push through it sometimes people get mad

582
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:39,200
there are tempered TS and you know but

583
00:59:37,280 --> 00:59:41,440
um we get we get around the corner where

584
00:59:39,200 --> 00:59:43,200
we know what projects we want to do and

585
00:59:41,440 --> 00:59:44,720
it's just a matter of figuring out which

586
00:59:43,200 --> 00:59:46,280
one goes first second and third the

587
00:59:44,720 --> 00:59:48,760
state helps us make sure it happens and

588
00:59:46,280 --> 00:59:50,599
we're we're our track records pretty

589
00:59:48,760 --> 00:59:52,880
good I mean we won Elmer Avenue we won

590
00:59:50,599 --> 00:59:55,400
Mosaic recently they came back with a

591
00:59:52,880 --> 00:59:57,520
good plan on the YWCA this scap campus

592
00:59:55,400 --> 00:59:58,720
looks like it's on a good track State's

593
00:59:57,520 --> 01:00:00,839
coming back and saying they like the

594
00:59:58,720 --> 01:00:04,440
direction this is going so I think we

595
01:00:00,839 --> 01:00:07,799
can feel good about it one question yes

596
01:00:04,440 --> 01:00:10,760
so um too long I'm sorry um it's good

597
01:00:07,799 --> 01:00:12,559
information I'm so I guess my question

598
01:00:10,760 --> 01:00:14,920
would be is how much of what are some of

599
01:00:12,559 --> 01:00:18,200
the other I mean I'm sure it depends on

600
01:00:14,920 --> 01:00:19,520
which path you you know would go down

601
01:00:18,200 --> 01:00:21,520
but could you share like some of the

602
01:00:19,520 --> 01:00:25,200
other considerations being made as far

603
01:00:21,520 --> 01:00:28,680
as like outside of income um who would

604
01:00:25,200 --> 01:00:30,599
be uh would be your targeted population

605
01:00:28,680 --> 01:00:34,640
um and I'm asking that question just for

606
01:00:30,599 --> 01:00:36,599
clarity around like um are we looking at

607
01:00:34,640 --> 01:00:38,640
um what are some of the other factors

608
01:00:36,599 --> 01:00:40,440
that are are kind of calculations that

609
01:00:38,640 --> 01:00:42,640
are made to see like who's who Le this

610
01:00:40,440 --> 01:00:44,799
type of housing would be accessible to

611
01:00:42,640 --> 01:00:49,480
yeah I mean the plain reality is

612
01:00:44,799 --> 01:00:53,599
unfortunately we have to react to what

613
01:00:49,480 --> 01:00:55,480
the funding streams tell us to do so

614
01:00:53,599 --> 01:00:58,559
when we do things like like Elmer Avenue

615
01:00:55,480 --> 01:01:01,359
or Renaissance square or mosaic um those

616
01:00:58,559 --> 01:01:03,599
projects are all tax credit projects and

617
01:01:01,359 --> 01:01:06,440
tax credit projects by law have to be

618
01:01:03,599 --> 01:01:08,799
rentals period and a discussion we don't

619
01:01:06,440 --> 01:01:11,760
have any choice and so if you're going

620
01:01:08,799 --> 01:01:13,520
to do a you know conversion of a of a

621
01:01:11,760 --> 01:01:14,760
white elephant old school that's empty

622
01:01:13,520 --> 01:01:16,680
and it's going to be 60 units you're

623
01:01:14,760 --> 01:01:21,480
kind of stuck with tax credits there you

624
01:01:16,680 --> 01:01:22,799
are um that's a so that's a reason why I

625
01:01:21,480 --> 01:01:24,280
kind of agree with you if we could go

626
01:01:22,799 --> 01:01:25,599
down the home ownership path here that

627
01:01:24,280 --> 01:01:26,839
would be great because this is an

628
01:01:25,599 --> 01:01:28,280
opportunity to do that and we're not

629
01:01:26,839 --> 01:01:32,400
doing a tax credit project that

630
01:01:28,280 --> 01:01:36,119
prohibits it um in the ca you know we

631
01:01:32,400 --> 01:01:39,240
have groups like young parents United

632
01:01:36,119 --> 01:01:41,799
tesda house they tell us that we have a

633
01:01:39,240 --> 01:01:45,680
demographic need to deal with homeless

634
01:01:41,799 --> 01:01:48,119
on a bunch of levels and so we do our

635
01:01:45,680 --> 01:01:50,920
best to try to get that I mean you know

636
01:01:48,119 --> 01:01:55,880
um the bethesa house project

637
01:01:50,920 --> 01:01:57,680
took four four years in you know it's

638
01:01:55,880 --> 01:01:59,520
probably longer than it should take but

639
01:01:57,680 --> 01:02:03,520
we got it other communities didn't get

640
01:01:59,520 --> 01:02:06,119
it and and did it because Bethesda house

641
01:02:03,520 --> 01:02:07,599
needed to double their capacity to House

642
01:02:06,119 --> 01:02:09,319
people coming out of the homeless sector

643
01:02:07,599 --> 01:02:12,000
so I think you know I think for the root

644
01:02:09,319 --> 01:02:13,720
for the um young families that need

645
01:02:12,000 --> 01:02:15,359
somewhere to go we know we have that

646
01:02:13,720 --> 01:02:17,799
need and we will figure out one way or

647
01:02:15,359 --> 01:02:19,279
another how to do it and we have um

648
01:02:17,799 --> 01:02:21,279
already a couple of State commitments

649
01:02:19,279 --> 01:02:22,680
for isi to do that and we have a local

650
01:02:21,279 --> 01:02:24,920
Foundation ready to do that and the

651
01:02:22,680 --> 01:02:26,839
state has already said okay then

652
01:02:24,920 --> 01:02:29,640
that's that's the connected formula for

653
01:02:26,839 --> 01:02:32,680
Success we will help you figure it out

654
01:02:29,640 --> 01:02:35,079
I'm I'm sorry to your time just I have

655
01:02:32,680 --> 01:02:36,680
one other question uh so regarding the

656
01:02:35,079 --> 01:02:38,200
the projects that you're doing um

657
01:02:36,680 --> 01:02:39,720
assuming part of this will be doing the

658
01:02:38,200 --> 01:02:45,119
sidewalks that are around these

659
01:02:39,720 --> 01:02:47,079
properties or um I I think in she's

660
01:02:45,119 --> 01:02:49,000
asking whether the sidewalks are

661
01:02:47,079 --> 01:02:50,440
included in the funding for this and I

662
01:02:49,000 --> 01:02:53,079
don't know I'm going to turn to the

663
01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:55,480
staff off the top of my head I believe

664
01:02:53,079 --> 01:02:58,079
they are but I I can't be 100% sure but

665
01:02:55,480 --> 01:03:01,880
I do believe that that was part of that

666
01:02:58,079 --> 01:03:04,760
okay when we did the last things uh when

667
01:03:01,880 --> 01:03:07,760
we did the surgy project we did all the

668
01:03:04,760 --> 01:03:10,200
sidewalks as well so I do believe that's

669
01:03:07,760 --> 01:03:12,640
that's part of it but I can certainly

670
01:03:10,200 --> 01:03:15,520
get back to you specifics if you like

671
01:03:12,640 --> 01:03:19,000
yes I would thank you

672
01:03:15,520 --> 01:03:20,760
pleas more questions um if you could

673
01:03:19,000 --> 01:03:22,559
though just all the information that you

674
01:03:20,760 --> 01:03:23,960
gave us today in terms of the funding

Etc if you could provide that to us in

676
01:03:23,960 --> 01:03:28,720
writing so that the entire all right so

677
01:03:26,599 --> 01:03:31,520
I think Alex has like a 40 page thing

678
01:03:28,720 --> 01:03:32,760
that's shows all the um the boring stuff

679
01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:36,000
that was done and then we can get you a

680
01:03:32,760 --> 01:03:37,799
summary too yes unless people want to 40

a brief presentation on the uh ARA

702
01:04:59,880 --> 01:05:04,400
project um the beginning um only we

703
01:05:02,240 --> 01:05:06,960
submitted uh the purpose was we were

704
01:05:04,400 --> 01:05:09,000
looking to get the funding so that we

705
01:05:06,960 --> 01:05:11,760
could uh complete the purchase of exra

706
01:05:09,000 --> 01:05:14,319
property so that we could expand program

707
01:05:11,760 --> 01:05:17,000
um in that time uh what we were able to

708
01:05:14,319 --> 01:05:19,599
do with the help of uh the Metroplex

709
01:05:17,000 --> 01:05:21,079
community landbank and R fund and some

710
01:05:19,599 --> 01:05:24,200
other supporters we were actually able

711
01:05:21,079 --> 01:05:26,680
to raise the money to complete uh the

712
01:05:24,200 --> 01:05:29,440
funding needed to execute our program um

713
01:05:26,680 --> 01:05:31,839
our project so as of right now uh the

714
01:05:29,440 --> 01:05:34,680

30 yes so um you should get ready to be

722
01:05:53,079 --> 01:05:57,440
there during this project what we've

723
01:05:55,680 --> 01:05:59,839
learned is uh in the very beginning I

724
01:05:57,440 --> 01:06:01,079
had really lofty goals my goal was to

725
01:05:59,839 --> 01:06:03,279
raise

726
01:06:01,079 --> 01:06:06,000
$250,000 and put it in the hands of the

727
01:06:03,279 --> 01:06:08,160
community um through local contractors

728
01:06:06,000 --> 01:06:10,720
who would hire local workers and they

729
01:06:08,160 --> 01:06:13,760
would train uh local youth you know that

730
01:06:10,720 --> 01:06:15,400
was my goal my the intent being um to

731
01:06:13,760 --> 01:06:17,240
make sure that the funding for the

732
01:06:15,400 --> 01:06:20,160
project was going back directly to the

733
01:06:17,240 --> 01:06:22,760
community and we did that you know we we

734
01:06:20,160 --> 01:06:25,440
tried to go that route and it was uh a

735
01:06:22,760 --> 01:06:28,720
task um I like to think that throughout

736
01:06:25,440 --> 01:06:31,440
this process I learned a lot about uh

737
01:06:28,720 --> 01:06:33,920
development contracts and a lot of stuff

738
01:06:31,440 --> 01:06:36,559
I just really had no clue about um we've

739
01:06:33,920 --> 01:06:39,119
gone through two contractors we're our

740
01:06:36,559 --> 01:06:41,920
third contractor right now uh NPR

741
01:06:39,119 --> 01:06:43,279
locally um and as of right now the front

742
01:06:41,920 --> 01:06:45,799
porch and the back porch has have been

743
01:06:43,279 --> 01:06:48,599
completed and inspected they both passed

744
01:06:45,799 --> 01:06:51,480
um as of right now um and you can kind

745
01:06:48,599 --> 01:06:54,839
of scroll down um these are the plans

746
01:06:51,480 --> 01:06:58,039
the original plans for the project uh

747
01:06:54,839 --> 01:06:59,799
so 20 years ago Rachel had an idea of

748
01:06:58,039 --> 01:07:02,760
connecting both houses when I took over

749
01:06:59,799 --> 01:07:04,000
Copa house uh 5 years ago I I looked at

750
01:07:02,760 --> 01:07:06,400
that and understood that that was going

751
01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:09,559
to be quite the task so what we did was

752
01:07:06,400 --> 01:07:11,680
we decided to next slide morce please uh

753
01:07:09,559 --> 01:07:13,720
to connect them through the porch um the

754
01:07:11,680 --> 01:07:17,359
reason why I thought this was a good

755
01:07:13,720 --> 01:07:20,319
idea was um in understanding what that

756
01:07:17,359 --> 01:07:22,119
neighborhood used to be um specifically

757
01:07:20,319 --> 01:07:24,760
my house

758
01:07:22,119 --> 01:07:26,799
um I wanted to build something that

759
01:07:24,760 --> 01:07:28,480
would last uh for the Youth in the

760
01:07:26,799 --> 01:07:31,240
community and would serve as an

761
01:07:28,480 --> 01:07:33,319
inspiration to the kid to attend uh

762
01:07:31,240 --> 01:07:35,720
Martin Luther King school and just youth

763
01:07:33,319 --> 01:07:37,039
who live in our community um you can go

764
01:07:35,720 --> 01:07:39,319
to next slide

765
01:07:37,039 --> 01:07:41,000
please uh the next few slides are

766
01:07:39,319 --> 01:07:43,839
pictures of the process and where we're

767
01:07:41,000 --> 01:07:45,920
at so that first slide you'll see is the

768
01:07:43,839 --> 01:07:47,480
very beginning 5 years ago uh those

769
01:07:45,920 --> 01:07:49,680
young men in blue shirts those are seats

770
01:07:47,480 --> 01:07:51,680
out so keeping up with the theme that

771
01:07:49,680 --> 01:07:54,039
from the very beginning my intent was to

772
01:07:51,680 --> 01:07:55,480
take this money raise and put it

773
01:07:54,039 --> 01:07:58,359
directly back into the hands of the

774
01:07:55,480 --> 01:08:01,200
community in training and funding and in

775
01:07:58,359 --> 01:08:03,960
jobs uh that second slide you see Union

776
01:08:01,200 --> 01:08:05,920
college students uh here you see Brian

777
01:08:03,960 --> 01:08:08,559
from the seat Center again as we're

778
01:08:05,920 --> 01:08:11,520
going through this process there were

779
01:08:08,559 --> 01:08:14,200
three breaks in the project that really

780
01:08:11,520 --> 01:08:15,920
were out of our hands one being co uh

781
01:08:14,200 --> 01:08:20,319
which you know there was really nothing

782
01:08:15,920 --> 01:08:22,440
we could do um we did have to let go of

783
01:08:20,319 --> 01:08:24,520
a contractor because the work wasn't up

784
01:08:22,440 --> 01:08:27,239
the par and in that process we brought

785
01:08:24,520 --> 01:08:29,040
on this great group um who as you can

786
01:08:27,239 --> 01:08:32,000
see the transition from the third and

787
01:08:29,040 --> 01:08:34,440
fourth slides you can see the project

788
01:08:32,000 --> 01:08:36,319
took shape literally overnight um all

789
01:08:34,440 --> 01:08:39,400
the siding was gone all the roofing was

790
01:08:36,319 --> 01:08:41,640
gone all brand new shingles and as of

791
01:08:39,400 --> 01:08:43,480
right now this last slide you'll see

792
01:08:41,640 --> 01:08:46,719
this is the brand new porch and this is

793
01:08:43,480 --> 01:08:48,560
the inside as of this time last week the

794
01:08:46,719 --> 01:08:50,159
insulation is up right now the sheet

795
01:08:48,560 --> 01:08:51,839
rock is inside and the walls are ready

796
01:08:50,159 --> 01:08:54,239
to go up we have all the plumbing

797
01:08:51,839 --> 01:08:56,319
purchased um the group that that we have

798
01:08:54,239 --> 01:08:59,159
now working with NPR they actually work

799
01:08:56,319 --> 01:09:00,960
six six days they work Monday through

800
01:08:59,159 --> 01:09:04,440
Saturday rafie and his team are

801
01:09:00,960 --> 01:09:08,080
absolutely amazing um the request came

802
01:09:04,440 --> 01:09:09,600
for us to Pivot for the arpa because

803
01:09:08,080 --> 01:09:11,839
what I realized throughout this project

804
01:09:09,600 --> 01:09:14,480
was it's been 25 years and coko house

805
01:09:11,839 --> 01:09:17,359
never had a full-time staff coko house

806
01:09:14,480 --> 01:09:20,480
has survived solely for 25 years off of

807
01:09:17,359 --> 01:09:22,279
volunteers so what I thought about um

808
01:09:20,480 --> 01:09:25,560
this time last year that's my wife with

809
01:09:22,279 --> 01:09:28,040
the kids was that we have this great big

810
01:09:25,560 --> 01:09:29,759
project and it's going to get done and

811
01:09:28,040 --> 01:09:32,359
we're going to have this program space

812
01:09:29,759 --> 01:09:34,279
but we need staff we need people from

813
01:09:32,359 --> 01:09:36,159
the community to hire to work with these

814
01:09:34,279 --> 01:09:38,640
youths people that we can train and that

815
01:09:36,159 --> 01:09:41,159
we can pay pay adequately um because

816
01:09:38,640 --> 01:09:42,839
again the pivot with the article was

817
01:09:41,159 --> 01:09:44,920
that we raised the money for the

818
01:09:42,839 --> 01:09:46,960
building and but we're still putting

819
01:09:44,920 --> 01:09:48,679
money back into the community uh the

820
01:09:46,960 --> 01:09:50,920
money the pivot for us is really is

821
01:09:48,679 --> 01:09:52,920
taking this money and hiring uh local

822
01:09:50,920 --> 01:09:55,040
families um because what we're also

823
01:09:52,920 --> 01:09:57,480
doing which I I took a lot of stuff

824
01:09:55,040 --> 01:09:59,239
context out the slide is uh what's also

825
01:09:57,480 --> 01:10:01,719
going to be in this program is we're

826
01:09:59,239 --> 01:10:05,520
building the first Broadview financial

827
01:10:01,719 --> 01:10:07,239
literacy Center in the Hamilton Hill so

828
01:10:05,520 --> 01:10:08,320
Broad View we have a partnership with

829
01:10:07,239 --> 01:10:10,400
them in which they're going to provide

830
01:10:08,320 --> 01:10:13,520
financially literacy classes to the

831
01:10:10,400 --> 01:10:15,880
community to families and youth as well

832
01:10:13,520 --> 01:10:17,960
um because we believe it's uh important

833
01:10:15,880 --> 01:10:20,840
to have a financial institution like

834
01:10:17,960 --> 01:10:22,239
Broadview to invest long-term education

835
01:10:20,840 --> 01:10:24,440
financial literacy courses and

836
01:10:22,239 --> 01:10:26,960
opportunities for people that in our

837
01:10:24,440 --> 01:10:28,199
community uh why amend a contract we've

838
01:10:26,960 --> 01:10:30,760
already raised the money needed to

839
01:10:28,199 --> 01:10:33,600

the money in place for the demolition at

864
01:11:23,080 --> 01:11:26,520
this time biggest need for the expansion

865
01:11:25,000 --> 01:11:28,560
of the program and the services we

866
01:11:26,520 --> 01:11:30,679

01:13:26,560 --> 01:13:32,080
the next slide CU I um I do have some

918
01:13:29,560 --> 01:13:35,719
questions right there all right so

919
01:13:32,080 --> 01:13:37,440
currently the 30,000 wages um I

920
01:13:35,719 --> 01:13:38,960
understand what is the 20,000

921
01:13:37,440 --> 01:13:41,920
administrative expenses could you

922
01:13:38,960 --> 01:13:45,440
explain with that deal is yeah uh we

923
01:13:41,920 --> 01:13:46,159
have uh services that we utilize lawyer

924
01:13:45,440 --> 01:13:49,600
uh

925
01:13:46,159 --> 01:13:54,560
training um insurance is cost like that

926
01:13:49,600 --> 01:13:57,760
oh okay okay and so

927
01:13:54,560 --> 01:13:59,679
your your initial ask from from us was

928
01:13:57,760 --> 01:14:02,679
from city council was I believe the

929
01:13:59,679 --> 01:14:05,679
original ask was 1.5 million over 5

930
01:14:02,679 --> 01:14:08,400
years um and that it was adapted to

931
01:14:05,679 --> 01:14:10,280
500,000 so you've lowered the request is

932
01:14:08,400 --> 01:14:12,080
that what you say no I didn't lower the

933
01:14:10,280 --> 01:14:14,440
quest it was when it was sent to us it

934
01:14:12,080 --> 01:14:17,719
was lower oh okay okay so 5,000 was what

935
01:14:14,440 --> 01:14:19,080
we allocated gotcha okay and so you're

936
01:14:17,719 --> 01:14:21,040
asking us to

937
01:14:19,080 --> 01:14:24,320
do could you break it down over the

938
01:14:21,040 --> 01:14:26,560
years yes so the way we looked at it is

939
01:14:24,320 --> 01:14:29,280
uh larger amount the first year and

940
01:14:26,560 --> 01:14:32,120
gradually scale off 200,000 200,000

941
01:14:29,280 --> 01:14:34,320
100,000 uh the third year um the reason

942
01:14:32,120 --> 01:14:36,239
being with our growing capacity what we

943
01:14:34,320 --> 01:14:38,600
found is we have access to more grants

944
01:14:36,239 --> 01:14:41,000
and stuff outside the C because we're

945
01:14:38,600 --> 01:14:43,159
offering more program um what's really

946
01:14:41,000 --> 01:14:45,480
been great about this process is uh we

947
01:14:43,159 --> 01:14:47,480
found a way to sustain our program and

948
01:14:45,480 --> 01:14:49,120
grow it without stepping on the toes of

949
01:14:47,480 --> 01:14:50,840
any other the other programs of what

950
01:14:49,120 --> 01:14:54,199
they're doing we found ways to

951
01:14:50,840 --> 01:14:56,280
collaborate partner um and find find

952
01:14:54,199 --> 01:14:57,840
Space where we can all being part of

953
01:14:56,280 --> 01:15:00,320
this connected youth Coalition being

954
01:14:57,840 --> 01:15:02,080
part of the 22 youth organizations we're

955
01:15:00,320 --> 01:15:03,840
supporting each other so we're not

956
01:15:02,080 --> 01:15:05,239
recreating program that's going to take

957
01:15:03,840 --> 01:15:07,920
away from other programs what we're

958
01:15:05,239 --> 01:15:09,960
finding is that we're all sustaining by

959
01:15:07,920 --> 01:15:11,840
we're serving the same same families and

960
01:15:09,960 --> 01:15:13,280
same kids but there are still some

961
01:15:11,840 --> 01:15:15,199
things that we can do differently and

962
01:15:13,280 --> 01:15:16,719
ways that we can work together so by

963
01:15:15,199 --> 01:15:19,080
stepping to this Niche working with the

964
01:15:16,719 --> 01:15:20,639
older kids um we're fting is there's a

965
01:15:19,080 --> 01:15:23,639
generation of Youth who just for some

966
01:15:20,639 --> 01:15:26,080
reason um they just you know as many as

967
01:15:23,639 --> 01:15:27,639
we have they tend to not come sometimes

968
01:15:26,080 --> 01:15:29,600
it's it's mental health sometimes it's

969
01:15:27,639 --> 01:15:32,080
sub sometimes it's just for decision

970
01:15:29,600 --> 01:15:34,560
making so we have found a space where we

971
01:15:32,080 --> 01:15:36,080
can uh work with everyone to provide the

972
01:15:34,560 --> 01:15:39,120
best service

973
01:15:36,080 --> 01:15:44,040
possible thank you yes ma'am

974
01:15:39,120 --> 01:15:46,199
um go go Miss pck okay yeah sure so

975
01:15:44,040 --> 01:15:50,280
first I want to Echo um uh president

976
01:15:46,199 --> 01:15:51,360
Porterfield uh uh congratulatory words

977
01:15:50,280 --> 01:15:54,440
around what you've been able to

978
01:15:51,360 --> 01:15:57,480
accomplish thus far um I really would

979
01:15:54,440 --> 01:16:00,080
like to see more nonprofits not only um

980
01:15:57,480 --> 01:16:02,320
you know make that type of investment to

981
01:16:00,080 --> 01:16:04,360
serve youth but then when you when you

982
01:16:02,320 --> 01:16:06,239
kind of compound the fact that you're

983
01:16:04,360 --> 01:16:08,040
making an investment back into the

984
01:16:06,239 --> 01:16:10,040
community um that's something that I

985
01:16:08,040 --> 01:16:11,880
wish a lot more nonprofits had that did

986
01:16:10,040 --> 01:16:13,440
that model um so I just want to say

987
01:16:11,880 --> 01:16:16,280
that's really important as far as it

988
01:16:13,440 --> 01:16:18,400
speaks of sustainability um and if I'm

989
01:16:16,280 --> 01:16:20,800
understanding correctly it's like um

990
01:16:18,400 --> 01:16:23,440
this will not only help you serve the

991
01:16:20,800 --> 01:16:26,280
youth that you serve now but you be able

992
01:16:23,440 --> 01:16:28,920
to kind of expand upon that and also

993
01:16:26,280 --> 01:16:31,360
that you know influx of resources what

994
01:16:28,920 --> 01:16:33,960
because I'm sure as being a executive

995
01:16:31,360 --> 01:16:36,440
director you're doing a lot of different

996
01:16:33,960 --> 01:16:38,199
things um a lot of you know so you're

997
01:16:36,440 --> 01:16:39,679
saying it's parttime but we all know we

998
01:16:38,199 --> 01:16:43,000
work with you we know it's full-time

999
01:16:39,679 --> 01:16:46,239
right so um I so I imagine that you you

1000
01:16:43,000 --> 01:16:49,120
could see that expanding your ability to

1001
01:16:46,239 --> 01:16:51,360
um go after more funding right Your

1002
01:16:49,120 --> 01:16:52,440
Capacity to do so so even within this

1003
01:16:51,360 --> 01:16:54,120
it's not you know there's some

1004
01:16:52,440 --> 01:16:55,600
sustainability to that with things up

1005
01:16:54,120 --> 01:16:58,120
okay I just want to be clear about that

1006
01:16:55,600 --> 01:17:01,320
that's that was the goal long term um we

1007
01:16:58,120 --> 01:17:04,440
planned this was to what we found was

1008
01:17:01,320 --> 01:17:07,800
with the UN with um Coco house we have

1009
01:17:04,440 --> 01:17:09,880
kids who age out and sixth seventh grade

1010
01:17:07,800 --> 01:17:11,719
and then you know boys and girls plus

1011
01:17:09,880 --> 01:17:14,280
phal I think the great thing about sa

1012
01:17:11,719 --> 01:17:16,199
connected we don't La for resources but

1013
01:17:14,280 --> 01:17:18,120
we always find those kids who find

1014
01:17:16,199 --> 01:17:19,639
themselves kind of in between so what we

1015
01:17:18,120 --> 01:17:21,800
thought about in this process was well

1016
01:17:19,639 --> 01:17:23,719
what if we can create uh job

1017
01:17:21,800 --> 01:17:25,040
sustainability long term we can take

1018
01:17:23,719 --> 01:17:27,199
some of these kids we can put them in a

1019
01:17:25,040 --> 01:17:29,199
team program we can educate them on how

1020
01:17:27,199 --> 01:17:30,880
to work with the younger kids and again

1021
01:17:29,199 --> 01:17:32,080
you know we have the summer youth

1022
01:17:30,880 --> 01:17:33,480
program we have all these different

1023
01:17:32,080 --> 01:17:35,600
programs that we have the ability to

1024
01:17:33,480 --> 01:17:37,679
work with let's create more

1025
01:17:35,600 --> 01:17:40,000
opportunities for youth like myself

1026
01:17:37,679 --> 01:17:42,440
because again without r a gram I'm not

1027
01:17:40,000 --> 01:17:44,400
the executive director of C- so if we

1028
01:17:42,440 --> 01:17:46,719
can take more use and more opportunities

1029
01:17:44,400 --> 01:17:48,400
and more intentional investment long

1030
01:17:46,719 --> 01:17:50,159
term we can create more opportunities to

1031
01:17:48,400 --> 01:17:52,080
get some of these kids off these corners

1032
01:17:50,159 --> 01:17:54,400
and do some phenomenal things in these

1033
01:17:52,080 --> 01:17:56,280
programs because they can reach their

1034
01:17:54,400 --> 01:17:59,239
friends better than we

1035
01:17:56,280 --> 01:18:02,239
can you have question I do so this

1036
01:17:59,239 --> 01:18:05,600
obviously the the um rer funding from

1037
01:18:02,239 --> 01:18:09,679
the city is completely about Staffing

1038
01:18:05,600 --> 01:18:12,400
and Sals so what will be your capacity

1039
01:18:09,679 --> 01:18:15,440
around um you know the programs I mean

1040
01:18:12,400 --> 01:18:18,320
in terms of uh no I'm I'm glad you asked

1041
01:18:15,440 --> 01:18:20,239
so right now uh with just volunteers my

1042
01:18:18,320 --> 01:18:22,360
wife who's sitting on the hallway um

1043
01:18:20,239 --> 01:18:26,440
prior to co we were operating at full

1044
01:18:22,360 --> 01:18:28,480
capacity 35 you a day prior to co once

1045
01:18:26,440 --> 01:18:31,920
Co hit uh of course we had numbers had

1046
01:18:28,480 --> 01:18:33,440
to drop and then after that um you know

1047
01:18:31,920 --> 01:18:35,480
the school district opened up their

1048
01:18:33,440 --> 01:18:37,280
after school program again which kinds

1049
01:18:35,480 --> 01:18:39,199
of change the dynamic and again we're

1050
01:18:37,280 --> 01:18:41,159
not in competition for to serve the

1051
01:18:39,199 --> 01:18:43,159
Youth of our community we're looking to

1052
01:18:41,159 --> 01:18:44,840
come across and work with each other so

1053
01:18:43,159 --> 01:18:46,440
uh we partner with the school district

1054
01:18:44,840 --> 01:18:48,920
and we find local families who are in

1055
01:18:46,440 --> 01:18:50,480
need of you know so this with the team

1056
01:18:48,920 --> 01:18:52,239
program opening up the way we have it

1057
01:18:50,480 --> 01:18:55,800
set up we have the capacity to take on

1058
01:18:52,239 --> 01:18:59,040
another 30 35 you per day

1059
01:18:55,800 --> 01:19:02,080
and um so do you find that the 30 to 35

1060
01:18:59,040 --> 01:19:04,040
students per day are um consistent the

1061
01:19:02,080 --> 01:19:06,880
same students or are you

1062
01:19:04,040 --> 01:19:09,000
seeing no it's it's changed right now

1063
01:19:06,880 --> 01:19:11,239
that we just opened up uh first day was

1064
01:19:09,000 --> 01:19:13,040
today and I think we had uh I believe

1065
01:19:11,239 --> 01:19:14,719
our numbers were 10 but this is our

1066
01:19:13,040 --> 01:19:16,280
first day opening up and again the

1067
01:19:14,719 --> 01:19:18,719
school district is running they have

1068
01:19:16,280 --> 01:19:20,440
school B 5 days a week so you know we're

1069
01:19:18,719 --> 01:19:23,199
not looking to really compete with them

1070
01:19:20,440 --> 01:19:25,800
but we're looking to create a a

1071
01:19:23,199 --> 01:19:28,400
situation to reach those hard to reach

1072
01:19:25,800 --> 01:19:30,480
youth specifically um because we really

1073
01:19:28,400 --> 01:19:33,320
feel like that's where we can do the

1074
01:19:30,480 --> 01:19:34,960
most good um anybody that that wants to

1075
01:19:33,320 --> 01:19:37,679
come to cop house of course is welcome

1076
01:19:34,960 --> 01:19:39,960
and that's really where this uh

1077
01:19:37,679 --> 01:19:41,719
situation was driven from is because we

1078
01:19:39,960 --> 01:19:43,560
had youth coming back seventh and eighth

1079
01:19:41,719 --> 01:19:45,520
grade and they had no program to go to

1080
01:19:43,560 --> 01:19:47,159
because they got kicked out and it's not

1081
01:19:45,520 --> 01:19:48,480
because they're bad kids but maybe the

1082
01:19:47,159 --> 01:19:50,159
people at the program didn't understand

1083
01:19:48,480 --> 01:19:52,120
how to deal with them we've been working

1084
01:19:50,159 --> 01:19:53,920
with them for four or 5 years now what

1085
01:19:52,120 --> 01:19:55,840
do we do do we turn turn the youth away

1086
01:19:53,920 --> 01:19:57,760
no we intentionally create a space so

1087
01:19:55,840 --> 01:19:59,199
that they can come back because that

1088
01:19:57,760 --> 01:20:01,159
investment long term it keeps them out

1089
01:19:59,199 --> 01:20:02,760
of trouble and it keeps them engage in

1090
01:20:01,159 --> 01:20:06,719
the community work that we

1091
01:20:02,760 --> 01:20:08,199
do Mr to um MZ um the document you

1092
01:20:06,719 --> 01:20:10,120
submit to us with regards to this

1093
01:20:08,199 --> 01:20:13,480
amendment you are and looking at the

1094
01:20:10,120 --> 01:20:16,120
salary line you have $600,000 over 3

1095
01:20:13,480 --> 01:20:19,360
years what are your plan to sustain it

1096
01:20:16,120 --> 01:20:21,560
into the fourth year what's our plan yes

1097
01:20:19,360 --> 01:20:24,080
okay so again as we expect it's cool I

1098
01:20:21,560 --> 01:20:26,960
was pray for that um as EX stand program

1099
01:20:24,080 --> 01:20:30,120
um what's been great is uh I I've gone

1100
01:20:26,960 --> 01:20:32,400
to a couple national conferences um the

1101
01:20:30,120 --> 01:20:35,120
geof funders was one in Chicago in which

1102
01:20:32,400 --> 01:20:36,920
we met national uh funders who there's

1103
01:20:35,120 --> 01:20:40,320
there's more money available and I think

1104
01:20:36,920 --> 01:20:42,880
a lot of that was kind of what moved our

1105
01:20:40,320 --> 01:20:44,440
Innovation right we found that there's a

1106
01:20:42,880 --> 01:20:46,560
lot of youth programs in the city of

1107
01:20:44,440 --> 01:20:48,560
skincity and we're kind of all going to

1108
01:20:46,560 --> 01:20:50,360
the connecting Foundation into the city

1109
01:20:48,560 --> 01:20:52,040
for the same money to serve really the

1110
01:20:50,360 --> 01:20:53,880
same kids which is not sustainable for

1111
01:20:52,040 --> 01:20:56,719
you guys it's not sustainable to the

1112
01:20:53,880 --> 01:20:58,560
concy foundation so in creating a a new

1113
01:20:56,719 --> 01:21:01,239
and Innovative program it allowed us to

1114
01:20:58,560 --> 01:21:03,040
start to tap into some uh the naal

1115
01:21:01,239 --> 01:21:07,679
National mentorship Alliance Mentor New

1116
01:21:03,040 --> 01:21:11,440
York in which you know and we have some

1117
01:21:07,679 --> 01:21:14,520
um funders uh that are kind of waiting

1118
01:21:11,440 --> 01:21:16,280
for uh this piece to get off the ground

1119
01:21:14,520 --> 01:21:19,440
so that was the big thing was is we had

1120
01:21:16,280 --> 01:21:21,679
some funders in place uh two years ago

1121
01:21:19,440 --> 01:21:24,440
but our timeline got pushed back because

1122
01:21:21,679 --> 01:21:26,719
the project kind of didn't sustain so

1123
01:21:24,440 --> 01:21:29,440
because of that we had to kind of um

1124
01:21:26,719 --> 01:21:30,840
pivot our approach and uh focus on

1125
01:21:29,440 --> 01:21:32,600
getting the project done before we could

1126
01:21:30,840 --> 01:21:33,719
start to ask some of our wealthy friends

1127
01:21:32,600 --> 01:21:36,679
for

1128
01:21:33,719 --> 01:21:39,000
money so so just a p so you mentioned

1129
01:21:36,679 --> 01:21:40,280
that their fundings out there yes and

1130
01:21:39,000 --> 01:21:42,719
you are T you're going to be tapping

1131
01:21:40,280 --> 01:21:44,000
into these agencies yes is it possible

1132
01:21:42,719 --> 01:21:45,920
that you can send us a list of the

1133
01:21:44,000 --> 01:21:48,440
agency that you are going to be working

1134
01:21:45,920 --> 01:21:48,440
with

1135
01:21:50,120 --> 01:21:55,120
in Mr Williams uh definitely again I

1136
01:21:53,040 --> 01:21:56,600
think it's I appreciate the presentation

1137
01:21:55,120 --> 01:21:58,960
and also the work that you're doing I

1138
01:21:56,600 --> 01:22:00,480
think it's safe to say that this project

1139
01:21:58,960 --> 01:22:03,480
and what you've been able to achieve so

1140
01:22:00,480 --> 01:22:05,239
far actually reflects the tant of what

1141
01:22:03,480 --> 01:22:06,560
our community is uh working together

1142
01:22:05,239 --> 01:22:08,840
more collaboratively and more

1143
01:22:06,560 --> 01:22:10,760
effectively so using and employing the

1144
01:22:08,840 --> 01:22:12,639
seat Center which made me smile and

1145
01:22:10,760 --> 01:22:15,159
tapping into Union College it's very

1146
01:22:12,639 --> 01:22:17,840
very um good to hear uh definitely I

1147
01:22:15,159 --> 01:22:19,159
think the sustainability is a strong

1148
01:22:17,840 --> 01:22:20,920
consideration the last thing we want to

1149
01:22:19,159 --> 01:22:22,840
do is fund positions that are then going

1150
01:22:20,920 --> 01:22:27,159
to be dissolved in the next year year or

1151
01:22:22,840 --> 01:22:29,080
two um uh my question resounded around

1152
01:22:27,159 --> 01:22:30,320
so if ever the ask came back to the city

1153
01:22:29,080 --> 01:22:32,080
do you have job descriptions just

1154
01:22:30,320 --> 01:22:34,320
clearly outlining what the duties of

1155
01:22:32,080 --> 01:22:37,040
each role are because any year working

1156
01:22:34,320 --> 01:22:38,760
we are absolutely working on those now U

1157
01:22:37,040 --> 01:22:40,440
the interesting thing about this in in

1158
01:22:38,760 --> 01:22:43,400
see down spread you kind of alluded to

1159
01:22:40,440 --> 01:22:45,520
this is it was the hardest thing to not

1160
01:22:43,400 --> 01:22:48,600
give a update on progress and not put

1161
01:22:45,520 --> 01:22:50,040
anything on social media because I felt

1162
01:22:48,600 --> 01:22:51,880
in all honesty I'm being honest I felt

1163
01:22:50,040 --> 01:22:54,480
like I had let everyone down because the

1164
01:22:51,880 --> 01:22:56,320
project I pushed back so many times um

1165
01:22:54,480 --> 01:22:59,120
we had a lofty goal and we had a

1166
01:22:56,320 --> 01:23:02,199
timeline set and when uh we came into

1167
01:22:59,120 --> 01:23:05,159
barrier after barrier it was frustra and

1168
01:23:02,199 --> 01:23:07,440
so what happened was is our Focus just

1169
01:23:05,159 --> 01:23:10,280
became strictly getting this building

1170
01:23:07,440 --> 01:23:12,639
done and then building everything else

1171
01:23:10,280 --> 01:23:14,199
kind of really around it and now we that

1172
01:23:12,639 --> 01:23:15,960
we have the right people in place we

1173
01:23:14,199 --> 01:23:17,960
have the timeline in front of us it's

1174
01:23:15,960 --> 01:23:19,280
allowed us to go back and focus on those

1175
01:23:17,960 --> 01:23:21,360
things which are incredibly important

1176
01:23:19,280 --> 01:23:23,520
because again to create sustainability

1177
01:23:21,360 --> 01:23:25,400
again like you know

1178
01:23:23,520 --> 01:23:27,440
talking about is we have to have those

1179
01:23:25,400 --> 01:23:30,840
things in place very clear dialogue very

1180
01:23:27,440 --> 01:23:33,120
clear program outlines um and I want to

1181
01:23:30,840 --> 01:23:34,719
flesh those out but my priority right

1182
01:23:33,120 --> 01:23:36,280
now is just getting this building done

1183
01:23:34,719 --> 01:23:39,159
because I just felt like so much was

1184
01:23:36,280 --> 01:23:41,080
riding on it thank you but I can send

1185
01:23:39,159 --> 01:23:43,480
them over to you it's not a problem

1186
01:23:41,080 --> 01:23:45,080
appreciate actually if you send m m

1187
01:23:43,480 --> 01:23:48,239
she'll make sure the en account for no

1188
01:23:45,080 --> 01:23:50,199
problem thank you Mr yes Mr Harley so I

1189
01:23:48,239 --> 01:23:52,280
so um just listening to kind of your

1190
01:23:50,199 --> 01:23:53,000
response to to Mr Williams I I think

1191
01:23:52,280 --> 01:23:54,520
that

1192
01:23:53,000 --> 01:23:57,199
um and kind of also to your point Mr

1193
01:23:54,520 --> 01:23:59,679
manian I think if I'm understanding it

1194
01:23:57,199 --> 01:24:02,239
correctly part of the the sustainability

1195
01:23:59,679 --> 01:24:03,679
is really growing Your Capacity to seek

1196
01:24:02,239 --> 01:24:05,520
funding cuz I think a lot of times we

1197
01:24:03,679 --> 01:24:07,320
have some of our smaller nonprofits that

1198
01:24:05,520 --> 01:24:08,239
make really really big impacts but

1199
01:24:07,320 --> 01:24:10,400
necessarily don't have like a

1200
01:24:08,239 --> 01:24:13,520
development office if you will right so

1201
01:24:10,400 --> 01:24:15,320
I so so so just you know as city council

1202
01:24:13,520 --> 01:24:16,840
we're we're moving to try to be more

1203
01:24:15,320 --> 01:24:18,800
Equitable in approach that we do things

1204
01:24:16,840 --> 01:24:20,080
including funding um so I think it was

1205
01:24:18,800 --> 01:24:21,920
just I just invited my council members

1206
01:24:20,080 --> 01:24:23,840
to consider that as well that part of

1207
01:24:21,920 --> 01:24:25,679
some of this is Su of the sustainability

1208
01:24:23,840 --> 01:24:27,840
plan is about giving um some of the

1209
01:24:25,679 --> 01:24:30,080
smaller nonprofits that make big impacts

1210
01:24:27,840 --> 01:24:31,840
opportunities to grow um and that would

1211
01:24:30,080 --> 01:24:33,360
kind of uh help sustain them along the

1212
01:24:31,840 --> 01:24:36,600
way and we're actually we're working

1213
01:24:33,360 --> 01:24:39,040
with uh Bob and the sky Foundation to

1214
01:24:36,600 --> 01:24:41,960
grow exactly that we're actually working

1215
01:24:39,040 --> 01:24:44,560
on growing a nonprofit incubator in the

1216
01:24:41,960 --> 01:24:46,639
city of skty where nonprofits smaller

1217
01:24:44,560 --> 01:24:48,360
nonprofits who order a certain budget

1218
01:24:46,639 --> 01:24:50,800
can actually have access to grant

1219
01:24:48,360 --> 01:24:53,159
writing and development services without

1220
01:24:50,800 --> 01:24:54,679
the the overhead cost that

1221
01:24:53,159 --> 01:24:55,920
that's been a part of this process in

1222
01:24:54,679 --> 01:24:58,159
the background that we've all really

1223
01:24:55,920 --> 01:24:59,719
been working on because it's not to when

1224
01:24:58,159 --> 01:25:01,679
you look at this approach I I know it

1225
01:24:59,719 --> 01:25:03,480
looks like it's a lot of money it's like

1226
01:25:01,679 --> 01:25:04,800
you know what's the dollar verse impact

1227
01:25:03,480 --> 01:25:06,040
when we talk about the work that we've

1228
01:25:04,800 --> 01:25:08,880
already done and the work we're going to

1229
01:25:06,040 --> 01:25:11,639
be committed to doing um when we show

1230
01:25:08,880 --> 01:25:13,280
the development model that everybody all

1231
01:25:11,639 --> 01:25:14,960
the nonprofits in the city of this conc

1232
01:25:13,280 --> 01:25:16,239
are to be able to access these

1233
01:25:14,960 --> 01:25:18,800
development approaches it's going to

1234
01:25:16,239 --> 01:25:21,280
make it sustainable for everyone long

1235
01:25:18,800 --> 01:25:22,800
term well I mean just to Echo what Mr

1236
01:25:21,280 --> 01:25:25,920
Farley is saying I guess I'd have to

1237
01:25:22,800 --> 01:25:27,159
also say I know that in your um Vision

1238
01:25:25,920 --> 01:25:29,199
here that you're going to revamp the

1239
01:25:27,159 --> 01:25:31,480
board of directors and activate them yes

1240
01:25:29,199 --> 01:25:33,719
we and then in terms of you know

1241
01:25:31,480 --> 01:25:36,239
full-time executive director I mean

1242
01:25:33,719 --> 01:25:37,960
obviously that would be a huge part of

1243
01:25:36,239 --> 01:25:39,760
the executive director's role will be

1244
01:25:37,960 --> 01:25:42,000
going out and continuing to look for

1245
01:25:39,760 --> 01:25:44,600
money um and that's why the program

1246
01:25:42,000 --> 01:25:46,320
people um would be you know working with

1247
01:25:44,600 --> 01:25:52,480
the youth Etc but the board's going to

1248
01:25:46,320 --> 01:25:55,080
have to you know also have influence our

1249
01:25:52,480 --> 01:25:57,199
just joined our board so so we've

1250
01:25:55,080 --> 01:26:00,040
actually we revamped our board totally

1251
01:25:57,199 --> 01:26:03,159
in last year or so um to really maximize

1252
01:26:00,040 --> 01:26:04,840

College so again there's a lot of

1256
01:26:09,119 --> 01:26:13,880
intentional pieces that are tied into

1257
01:26:10,840 --> 01:26:16,360
this but again to be mindful of the time

1258
01:26:13,880 --> 01:26:18,719

01:26:16,360 --> 01:26:21,320

or have you considered making getting

1273
01:26:53,600 --> 01:26:57,000
some of that other funding in place or

1274
01:26:55,360 --> 01:26:58,880
leveraging the funding this funding to

1275
01:26:57,000 --> 01:27:01,960
get some of that other funding in place

1276
01:26:58,880 --> 01:27:04,280
so it's not all the AR money spent yes

1277
01:27:01,960 --> 01:27:06,239
right at time so is that a possibility

1278
01:27:04,280 --> 01:27:07,760
something you consider yes that that's

1279
01:27:06,239 --> 01:27:10,119
why we're doing 25th anniversary

1280
01:27:07,760 --> 01:27:11,679
fundraising January 13th uh I was kind

1281
01:27:10,119 --> 01:27:14,880
of planning

1282
01:27:11,679 --> 01:27:16,719
for um because again we we've had lofty

1283
01:27:14,880 --> 01:27:18,520
requests and our timeline was pushed

1284
01:27:16,719 --> 01:27:20,520
back so again to be mindful and

1285
01:27:18,520 --> 01:27:22,920
respectful of the council in the city

1286
01:27:20,520 --> 01:27:25,760
and everyone else I'm I've been we've

1287
01:27:22,920 --> 01:27:28,119
been committed to doing the work first

1288
01:27:25,760 --> 01:27:29,440
ahead of time because it shows that

1289
01:27:28,119 --> 01:27:31,239
again we're trying to be collaborative

1290
01:27:29,440 --> 01:27:32,800
so you know we do have some

1291
01:27:31,239 --> 01:27:34,440
conversations in place about some

1292
01:27:32,800 --> 01:27:36,400
outside funding again the bigger thing

1293
01:27:34,440 --> 01:27:38,000
was getting the building done because

1294
01:27:36,400 --> 01:27:40,280
once I have the building then I can go

1295
01:27:38,000 --> 01:27:41,960
back to some of my funders and say Hey

1296
01:27:40,280 --> 01:27:44,639
listen we're ready to start program on

1297
01:27:41,960 --> 01:27:46,719
this date so that allows us to get some

1298
01:27:44,639 --> 01:27:47,960
of that other funding in place but the

1299
01:27:46,719 --> 01:27:50,040
building piece was really the

1300
01:27:47,960 --> 01:27:52,080
Cornerstone to locking all that stuff in

1301
01:27:50,040 --> 01:27:54,199
but again planning out the fundraiser

1302
01:27:52,080 --> 01:27:56,800
planning out on some online stuff as

1303
01:27:54,199 --> 01:28:01,520
well we do

1304
01:27:56,800 --> 01:28:03,719
have yes Mr T hi well thank you Mary so

1305
01:28:01,520 --> 01:28:05,840
um you mentioned there were 22 other

1306
01:28:03,719 --> 01:28:07,840
youth organizations here in the city

1307
01:28:05,840 --> 01:28:10,280
part of connected youth Coalition here

1308
01:28:07,840 --> 01:28:12,360
right um is there anyone I know where

1309
01:28:10,280 --> 01:28:14,520
your heart is I really do is there any

1310
01:28:12,360 --> 01:28:16,159
other one of those 22 that you can

1311
01:28:14,520 --> 01:28:18,600
collaborate with that's doing kind of

1312
01:28:16,159 --> 01:28:19,800
the same thing you're doing um bring

1313
01:28:18,600 --> 01:28:22,400
them on

1314
01:28:19,800 --> 01:28:24,280
or you hear what I'm saying we're

1315
01:28:22,400 --> 01:28:26,360
collaborating with all of you that's the

1316
01:28:24,280 --> 01:28:27,159
purpose of theate Coalition but as far

1317
01:28:26,360 --> 01:28:29,679
as the

1318
01:28:27,159 --> 01:28:31,520
funding we're all in the same boat

1319
01:28:29,679 --> 01:28:34,159
that's that's why we formed this

1320
01:28:31,520 --> 01:28:36,760
connected youth coalition to not stress

1321
01:28:34,159 --> 01:28:38,719
overstress our budgets our staff our

1322
01:28:36,760 --> 01:28:41,760
capacity um and to Not Duplicate

1323
01:28:38,719 --> 01:28:43,760
Services you know so that's also the

1324
01:28:41,760 --> 01:28:46,560
purpose of I don't know you know if you

1325
01:28:43,760 --> 01:28:47,920
guys were part of the uh SKC Foundation

1326
01:28:46,560 --> 01:28:50,000
they had they hired the group from

1327
01:28:47,920 --> 01:28:52,119
Atlanta that was the feedback that came

1328
01:28:50,000 --> 01:28:53,440
back that we have all these organiz

1329
01:28:52,119 --> 01:28:56,080
ation doing this great work and there's

1330
01:28:53,440 --> 01:28:58,080
not enough funding for everyone so in

1331
01:28:56,080 --> 01:29:00,400
creating this nonprofit incubator the

1332
01:28:58,080 --> 01:29:02,880
intention is is so that we can actually

1333
01:29:00,400 --> 01:29:05,520
shorten our budgets and extend our

1334
01:29:02,880 --> 01:29:07,320
capacity by everybody having access to

1335
01:29:05,520 --> 01:29:08,840
Brand writers and development offices

1336
01:29:07,320 --> 01:29:11,280
that's that's the point because the

1337
01:29:08,840 --> 01:29:12,520
truth is there no one can really sustain

1338
01:29:11,280 --> 01:29:16,040
what the funding we're receive we're

1339
01:29:12,520 --> 01:29:18,600
already doing the best we can absolutely

1340
01:29:16,040 --> 01:29:21,320
other questions comments anybody any

01:29:18,600 --> 01:29:23,480

funds so we have um a total of $ 77,4

1367
01:30:48,560 --> 01:30:54,600
33 we are asking uh Council to approve

1368
01:30:52,280 --> 01:30:57,360
us to accept that and use that by

1369
01:30:54,600 --> 01:31:00,840
funding our scanty County Hub the funds

1370
01:30:57,360 --> 01:31:04,280
will be used for temporary housing

1371
01:31:00,840 --> 01:31:07,040
$7,495 $3,000 for transportation and

1372
01:31:04,280 --> 01:31:08,040
$4,000 for awareness of what the scanty

1373
01:31:07,040 --> 01:31:10,440
Hub is

1374
01:31:08,040 --> 01:31:11,840
there we're asking for no matching funds

1375
01:31:10,440 --> 01:31:15,800
for

1376
01:31:11,840 --> 01:31:19,280
this um the temporary housing would be

1377
01:31:15,800 --> 01:31:21,159
to uh for us to be able to offer housing

1378
01:31:19,280 --> 01:31:23,280
to those individuals that need it where

1379
01:31:21,159 --> 01:31:25,480
no other resour sources can be can match

1380
01:31:23,280 --> 01:31:28,760
their their need for for one reason or

1381
01:31:25,480 --> 01:31:30,600
another any questions or comments so who

1382
01:31:28,760 --> 01:31:33,080
would provide the

1383
01:31:30,600 --> 01:31:34,719
housing uh well the Hub would make the

1384
01:31:33,080 --> 01:31:37,280
phone calls in order to find a place

1385
01:31:34,719 --> 01:31:40,760
that we could house the individuals most

1386
01:31:37,280 --> 01:31:42,660
likely it would be a hotel

1387
01:31:40,760 --> 01:31:44,119
motel that was exactly my

1388
01:31:42,660 --> 01:31:47,760
[Music]

1389
01:31:44,119 --> 01:31:50,800
question any yeah so do we have any like

1390
01:31:47,760 --> 01:31:53,760
guidelines for these hotels motels uh in

1391
01:31:50,800 --> 01:31:53,760
terms of you know

1392
01:31:55,880 --> 01:32:02,119
habitability the uh scanty County was a

1393
01:31:59,119 --> 01:32:03,520
part of the Hub and we would have them

1394
01:32:02,119 --> 01:32:04,880
they're they're the ones that would be

1395
01:32:03,520 --> 01:32:06,400
making those phone calls and they had

1396
01:32:04,880 --> 01:32:09,719
the guidelines that they use through

1397
01:32:06,400 --> 01:32:11,480
Social Services it's it's simply um you

1398
01:32:09,719 --> 01:32:13,480
know if if if they don't have the

1399
01:32:11,480 --> 01:32:15,320
funding available at their for them at

1400
01:32:13,480 --> 01:32:18,400
the

1401
01:32:15,320 --> 01:32:19,639
time so just as a follow so it would be

1402
01:32:18,400 --> 01:32:22,040
the same hotels that the county

1403
01:32:19,639 --> 01:32:24,280
currently uses to house the of their

1404
01:32:22,040 --> 01:32:25,719
housing that's my understanding right

1405
01:32:24,280 --> 01:32:27,960
okay

1406
01:32:25,719 --> 01:32:29,360
M yeah if that's going to be the case

1407
01:32:27,960 --> 01:32:31,159
there's any chance we could have

1408
01:32:29,360 --> 01:32:34,280
somebody look at these facilities

1409
01:32:31,159 --> 01:32:37,920
because from all reports they're not

1410
01:32:34,280 --> 01:32:40,199
very nice uh just to put it mildly and

1411
01:32:37,920 --> 01:32:43,080
quite frankly if we're going to House

1412
01:32:40,199 --> 01:32:45,800
people it should at least be appropriate

1413
01:32:43,080 --> 01:32:47,880
housing and there's a lot of issues at

1414
01:32:45,800 --> 01:32:50,360
these

1415
01:32:47,880 --> 01:32:52,199
places can I ask what facility you're

1416
01:32:50,360 --> 01:32:54,119
referencing uh some some of the ones

1417
01:32:52,199 --> 01:32:58,040
that are used I don't can't remember the

1418
01:32:54,119 --> 01:33:01,840
names twins yeah over on state

1419
01:32:58,040 --> 01:33:05,280
streety county and does not use that

1420
01:33:01,840 --> 01:33:07,960
facility we use other ones that other

1421
01:33:05,280 --> 01:33:10,480
entities are using them that we don't

1422
01:33:07,960 --> 01:33:15,119
I'll see if I can get some names and Bo

1423
01:33:10,480 --> 01:33:17,119

were not using that could you provide us

1425
01:33:17,119 --> 01:33:22,360
with the names that would be considered

1426
01:33:19,880 --> 01:33:25,199

01:33:29,480 --> 01:33:33,360
some of the places they've been housed

1431
01:33:30,719 --> 01:33:35,400
are just really not someplace they would

1432
01:33:33,360 --> 01:33:36,679
want to live but have no choice sure so

1433
01:33:35,400 --> 01:33:38,360
if we can find out where these places

01:34:27,960 --> 01:34:33,719
share of the funding is

1452
01:34:30,719 --> 01:34:36,080
2,831 and we plan to dedicate that that

1453
01:34:33,719 --> 01:34:39,760
money towards

1454
01:34:36,080 --> 01:34:41,880
$165,200 for mobile computers

1455
01:34:39,760 --> 01:34:43,520
interoperable Communications equipment

1456
01:34:41,880 --> 01:34:46,280
and cameras for physical security

1457
01:34:43,520 --> 01:34:49,000
enhancements within the city

1458
01:34:46,280 --> 01:34:51,719
$2,598 for maintenance costs for

1459
01:34:49,000 --> 01:34:54,639
geospatial software which uh we use use

1460
01:34:51,719 --> 01:34:56,360
ezri and $155,000 for training costs

1461
01:34:54,639 --> 01:34:59,040
involved in active shooter and other

1462
01:34:56,360 --> 01:35:01,760
Mass incident training this funding

1463
01:34:59,040 --> 01:35:06,080
period is September 1st of 2023 to

1464
01:35:01,760 --> 01:35:09,520
August 31st of 2026 and there's no City

1465
01:35:06,080 --> 01:35:12,199
match any questions or

1466
01:35:09,520 --> 01:35:15,800
comments second

1467
01:35:12,199 --> 01:35:17,080
sorry question sorry so could you you

1468
01:35:15,800 --> 01:35:19,719
you talked about the cameras CU there's

1469
01:35:17,080 --> 01:35:23,040
a lot of like the county does a camera

1470
01:35:19,719 --> 01:35:26,159
project and so what part of cameras

1471
01:35:23,040 --> 01:35:26,159
would would this be used

1472
01:35:26,520 --> 01:35:30,880
towards um it it it varies um I believe

1473
01:35:29,639 --> 01:35:32,560
last year one of the cameras we

1474
01:35:30,880 --> 01:35:34,440
purchased was a one of our Mobile

1475
01:35:32,560 --> 01:35:36,520
Trailer cameras so that gives us the

1476
01:35:34,440 --> 01:35:38,960
flexibility to move it around there's

1477
01:35:36,520 --> 01:35:41,560
other times that we we we uh use these

1478
01:35:38,960 --> 01:35:44,760
funds to put a a camera that we add to

1479
01:35:41,560 --> 01:35:46,880
the cam County system uh for a problem

1480
01:35:44,760 --> 01:35:50,360
area that we find that there's a need

1481
01:35:46,880 --> 01:35:52,360
for them then we're also uh we're also

1482
01:35:50,360 --> 01:35:56,280
researching the ability to put cob

1483
01:35:52,360 --> 01:35:59,239
cameras in for again for the higher need

1484
01:35:56,280 --> 01:36:01,560
areas and then um one of my questions

1485
01:35:59,239 --> 01:36:03,400
was I know previously you identified

1486
01:36:01,560 --> 01:36:06,280
that with our current technological

1487
01:36:03,400 --> 01:36:07,560
Investments a in particular was it these

1488
01:36:06,280 --> 01:36:10,560
types of grants that are going to help

1489
01:36:07,560 --> 01:36:11,960
offset some of those funds or is this uh

1490
01:36:10,560 --> 01:36:14,520
in

1491
01:36:11,960 --> 01:36:16,199
addition this this grant is not one of

1492
01:36:14,520 --> 01:36:18,239
them but there are similar similar

1493
01:36:16,199 --> 01:36:20,760
grants that we apply towards our axon

1494
01:36:18,239 --> 01:36:23,400
funding but this this one uh is not one

1495
01:36:20,760 --> 01:36:26,520
of them any other questions or comments

1496
01:36:23,400 --> 01:36:28,679
may have a motion so second all in favor

1497
01:36:26,520 --> 01:36:30,560
five uh next agenda item is the police

1498
01:36:28,679 --> 01:36:33,960
traffic Services Program Grant by the

1499
01:36:30,560 --> 01:36:36,520
New York State Governor's Traffic Safety

1500
01:36:33,960 --> 01:36:40,800
Committee this grant is a another yearly

1501
01:36:36,520 --> 01:36:43,880
grant that we we receive for 2023 is

1502
01:36:40,800 --> 01:36:46,360
$46,000 there's no match on the side on

1503
01:36:43,880 --> 01:36:50,080
behalf of the city and we use these

1504
01:36:46,360 --> 01:36:51,920
funds for seat belt mobilization efforts

1505
01:36:50,080 --> 01:36:57,040
that are known as click or tick ticket

1506
01:36:51,920 --> 01:37:00,400
there's $6,700 for that regular uh pts

1507
01:36:57,040 --> 01:37:02,040
enforcement um which is $37,000 520

1508
01:37:00,400 --> 01:37:04,360
that's where we go out and we just do

1509
01:37:02,040 --> 01:37:08,040
traffic enforcement such as on Kings

1510
01:37:04,360 --> 01:37:10,320
Road conso roads in any areas that we uh

1511
01:37:08,040 --> 01:37:13,440
you know we have complaints for Speeders

1512
01:37:10,320 --> 01:37:17,199
or people running uh lights or red stop

1513
01:37:13,440 --> 01:37:19,400
signs and then uh $1,780 for other

1514
01:37:17,199 --> 01:37:21,520
Personnel Services uh that that's

1515
01:37:19,400 --> 01:37:23,119
allocated for the annual conference that

1516
01:37:21,520 --> 01:37:26,239
revolves around the governor's Traffic

1517
01:37:23,119 --> 01:37:29,000
Safety Committee for total

1518
01:37:26,239 --> 01:37:31,199
46,000 any questions or

1519
01:37:29,000 --> 01:37:33,280
comments so this is over and above what

1520
01:37:31,199 --> 01:37:35,760
you already do in terms of um

1521
01:37:33,280 --> 01:37:38,280
enforcement this is you do that anyway

1522
01:37:35,760 --> 01:37:41,480
and this is additional to that that's

1523
01:37:38,280 --> 01:37:43,960
correct um we we have regular uh staff

1524
01:37:41,480 --> 01:37:46,360
enforcement officers and and this this

1525
01:37:43,960 --> 01:37:48,440
funding uh we do details where we bring

1526
01:37:46,360 --> 01:37:51,360
them all together on certain periods of

1527
01:37:48,440 --> 01:37:53,119
time to do uh you know five or six six

1528
01:37:51,360 --> 01:37:55,679
officers at one time in certain areas to

1529
01:37:53,119 --> 01:37:56,760
really impact it it's going to be used

1530
01:37:55,679 --> 01:37:59,159
towards speeding we going to need a lot

1531
01:37:56,760 --> 01:38:02,480
more money yes of

1532
01:37:59,159 --> 01:38:06,280
course any other questions or comments

1533
01:38:02,480 --> 01:38:07,639
I'll second it all in favor uh and the

1534
01:38:06,280 --> 01:38:10,560
last item by Chief cliffer will be the

1535
01:38:07,639 --> 01:38:14,159
grant award uh law enforcement

1536
01:38:10,560 --> 01:38:18,199
equipment so this is a a grant for

1537
01:38:14,159 --> 01:38:19,400
$168,400 it's awarded by the new YK

1538
01:38:18,199 --> 01:38:22,520
state division of Criminal Justice

1539
01:38:19,400 --> 01:38:25,040
Services DCJS it's through our a close

1540
01:38:22,520 --> 01:38:27,440
relationship with DCJS that they offered

1541
01:38:25,040 --> 01:38:30,040
us this funding which we will plan to

1542
01:38:27,440 --> 01:38:32,560
use for holsters flashlights optic

1543
01:38:30,040 --> 01:38:36,960
mounting plates and modular optic

1544
01:38:32,560 --> 01:38:38,560
systems there is no match um however um

1545
01:38:36,960 --> 01:38:40,199
this equipment that we would be

1546
01:38:38,560 --> 01:38:42,440
purchasing would be in conjunction with

1547
01:38:40,199 --> 01:38:45,599
upgrading our Firearms which are getting

1548
01:38:42,440 --> 01:38:48,360
close to being uh needing to be replaced

1549
01:38:45,599 --> 01:38:50,679
and uh we are uh currently researching

1550
01:38:48,360 --> 01:38:55,480
moving our firearms from a 40 caliber to

1551
01:38:50,679 --> 01:38:58,000
a 9 millimeter and we would um receive a

1552
01:38:55,480 --> 01:38:59,560
credit for the ones that we trade in and

1553
01:38:58,000 --> 01:39:01,760
that would be off that would offset the

1554
01:38:59,560 --> 01:39:03,719
cost of the new ones that we do purchase

1555
01:39:01,760 --> 01:39:07,080
this is that is not a part of what we're

1556
01:39:03,719 --> 01:39:08,560
asking the grant uh to be accepted for

1557
01:39:07,080 --> 01:39:11,280
um and we would be doing our own

1558
01:39:08,560 --> 01:39:13,920
research on on uh securing the funding

1559
01:39:11,280 --> 01:39:15,719
for whatever else is needed um for those

1560
01:39:13,920 --> 01:39:18,679
handguns it's roughly

1561
01:39:15,719 --> 01:39:22,440
$30,000 which we would see in C savings

1562
01:39:18,679 --> 01:39:25,520
on on purchasing ammunition um but the

1563
01:39:22,440 --> 01:39:27,599
the better plan for that decision uh we

1564
01:39:25,520 --> 01:39:29,199
we asked for this this funding through

1565
01:39:27,599 --> 01:39:32,520
the state and we were awarded it so

1566
01:39:29,199 --> 01:39:36,360
we're looking to be able to accept

1567
01:39:32,520 --> 01:39:39,599
it he said what's a modular optic

1568
01:39:36,360 --> 01:39:42,880
unit so uh this is new technology that

1569
01:39:39,599 --> 01:39:45,760
exists now where the officer um who is

1570
01:39:42,880 --> 01:39:48,679
using the firearm looks through an optic

1571
01:39:45,760 --> 01:39:49,920
and they're able to actually see a uh uh

1572
01:39:48,679 --> 01:39:52,679
their target better where they're

1573
01:39:49,920 --> 01:39:55,000
shooting to it becomes much more

1574
01:39:52,679 --> 01:39:57,960
accurate and and have

1575
01:39:55,000 --> 01:40:00,000
a less through training you end up

1576
01:39:57,960 --> 01:40:01,920
needing to shoot Less in order to

1577
01:40:00,000 --> 01:40:05,239
eliminate the

1578
01:40:01,920 --> 01:40:09,719
threat any other questions or comments

1579
01:40:05,239 --> 01:40:12,159
I'll second oh no so you you mentioned

1580
01:40:09,719 --> 01:40:14,880
it so I don't see anything in here so if

1581
01:40:12,159 --> 01:40:17,480
this modular optic system is new is

1582
01:40:14,880 --> 01:40:20,119
there anything in here for training on

1583
01:40:17,480 --> 01:40:22,400
that yes we would we would provide that

1584
01:40:20,119 --> 01:40:24,840
there we would not uh ever switch them

1585
01:40:22,400 --> 01:40:27,280
out without doing it during our annual

1586
01:40:24,840 --> 01:40:30,400
firearms training which is a week

1587
01:40:27,280 --> 01:40:32,360
long okay so just to be clear we would

1588
01:40:30,400 --> 01:40:35,239
buy this and we wouldn't use it until

1589
01:40:32,360 --> 01:40:38,080
people have been trained on it that's

1590
01:40:35,239 --> 01:40:40,239
correct um and and I asked this uh when

1591
01:40:38,080 --> 01:40:41,840
we were um having the legislative

1592
01:40:40,239 --> 01:40:43,400
conference so I just want to double just

1593
01:40:41,840 --> 01:40:47,280
if you could just explain because I had

1594
01:40:43,400 --> 01:40:51,119
a question regarding going from the 9 mm

1595
01:40:47,280 --> 01:40:54,320
versus the 40 caliber yes and and it's

1596
01:40:51,119 --> 01:40:55,440
impact on human life so I want to know

1597
01:40:54,320 --> 01:40:57,159
yeah I don't profession to be a

1598
01:40:55,440 --> 01:41:00,520
ballistics expert but what I've been

1599
01:40:57,159 --> 01:41:04,000
told is that uh the ballistics uh behind

1600
01:41:00,520 --> 01:41:06,159
a 9mm are equal to or greater than that

1601
01:41:04,000 --> 01:41:09,840
of a 40 caliber but they're more closely

1602
01:41:06,159 --> 01:41:12,960
related to being very close um which the

1603
01:41:09,840 --> 01:41:15,400
the 40 caliber uh from the past of over

1604
01:41:12,960 --> 01:41:18,480
a 9 Miller was was better but the the

1605
01:41:15,400 --> 01:41:21,280
technology has gotten such that the 9mm

1606
01:41:18,480 --> 01:41:23,159
is just as good and it's much cheaper to

1607
01:41:21,280 --> 01:41:26,719
purchase and um and they're they're

1608
01:41:23,159 --> 01:41:28,119
smaller um to to put into the weapon so

1609
01:41:26,719 --> 01:41:30,520
it means that the the weapon that you're

1610
01:41:28,119 --> 01:41:32,520
carrying is lighter you know which which

1611
01:41:30,520 --> 01:41:34,599
you know means that you know the the the

1612
01:41:32,520 --> 01:41:38,119
P the drag on the waist for the officers

1613
01:41:34,599 --> 01:41:39,840
is a lot less um which which helps when

1614
01:41:38,119 --> 01:41:43,199
we're adding more technology like tasers

1615
01:41:39,840 --> 01:41:45,920
onto their belt so um it's for those

1616
01:41:43,199 --> 01:41:47,719
reasons why most police departments uh

1617
01:41:45,920 --> 01:41:49,239
even federal agencies are moving towards

1618
01:41:47,719 --> 01:41:51,000
this

1619
01:41:49,239 --> 01:41:53,960
technology any other questions question

1620
01:41:51,000 --> 01:41:57,599
or comments and motion so Mo second all

1621
01:41:53,960 --> 01:41:59,800
in favor uh before ask Lieutenant to

1622
01:41:57,599 --> 01:42:01,760
come up and be assessed definitely I

1623
01:41:59,800 --> 01:42:03,599
hope it doesn't go un notice uh the

1624
01:42:01,760 --> 01:42:07,159
grants that this department is able to

1625
01:42:03,599 --> 01:42:10,159
get uh should not be U taken for granted

1626
01:42:07,159 --> 01:42:11,880
and would you mind as for clarification

1627
01:42:10,159 --> 01:42:14,320

individuals that through a uh

1639
01:42:37,080 --> 01:42:41,199
relationship with

1640
01:42:38,440 --> 01:42:42,800
DCJS um you know we put ourselves in a

1641
01:42:41,199 --> 01:42:44,800
position where when we need something we

1642
01:42:42,800 --> 01:42:46,280
mention to them they they assist us

1643
01:42:44,800 --> 01:42:48,880
Lieutenant Doan who you're about to hear

01:42:46,280 --> 01:42:51,520
from same thing he gets involved in the

1645
01:42:48,880 --> 01:42:53,639
topic and and that's really what we do

1646
01:42:51,520 --> 01:42:56,159
on a regular basis to to achieve these

1647
01:42:53,639 --> 01:42:59,040
grants um and then you know we can

1648
01:42:56,159 --> 01:43:00,920
expect certain ones every year like the

1649
01:42:59,040 --> 01:43:03,440
governor's Traffic Safety the Homeland

1650
01:43:00,920 --> 01:43:05,199
Security One um the other ones are those

1651
01:43:03,440 --> 01:43:07,480
one-timers like the the one you're about

1652
01:43:05,199 --> 01:43:10,760
to hear about and the one with from DCJS

1653
01:43:07,480 --> 01:43:12,880
but it's fair to say that our our our

1654
01:43:10,760 --> 01:43:14,960
department-wide relationship with DCJS

1655
01:43:12,880 --> 01:43:18,199
has brought us lots of funding thanks

1656
01:43:14,960 --> 01:43:20,400
you welcome uh and the last agenda item

1657
01:43:18,199 --> 01:43:24,639
will be uh Grant award New York State

1658
01:43:20,400 --> 01:43:24,639
compan annual Capital fund Grant

1659
01:43:25,280 --> 01:43:31,400
by good evening so this is a grant we're

1660
01:43:28,719 --> 01:43:33,520
awarded for $200,000 it's comes out of

1661
01:43:31,400 --> 01:43:36,480
the um animal containment fund from New

1662
01:43:33,520 --> 01:43:38,480
York State this is a fund that has been

1663
01:43:36,480 --> 01:43:39,480
increased under the governor I expect

1664
01:43:38,480 --> 01:43:41,960
that this fund's probably going to be

1665
01:43:39,480 --> 01:43:44,000
increased more in the future um

1666
01:43:41,960 --> 01:43:47,880
previously it was one to one match they

1667
01:43:44,000 --> 01:43:49,679
dropped it down to I think 25% so uh

1668
01:43:47,880 --> 01:43:53,239
right now we we're awarded

1669
01:43:49,679 --> 01:43:56,040
$200,000 we had previous $150,000 in

1670
01:43:53,239 --> 01:43:56,960
capital funds um for this project we

1671
01:43:56,040 --> 01:43:59,400
have another

1672
01:43:56,960 --> 01:44:00,639
150,000 and uh in this year's budget so

1673
01:43:59,400 --> 01:44:03,560
we have everything we need to complete

1674
01:44:00,639 --> 01:44:07,800
the project uh we'll be looking

1675
01:44:03,560 --> 01:44:09,560
to um improve or relocate our animal

1676
01:44:07,800 --> 01:44:11,760
shelter the state has passed several

1677
01:44:09,560 --> 01:44:13,639
laws that are going to go in fact over

1678
01:44:11,760 --> 01:44:16,000
the next couple years in reference to

1679
01:44:13,639 --> 01:44:17,800
the quality of the shelters and air

1680
01:44:16,000 --> 01:44:21,520
quality and certain standards for the

1681
01:44:17,800 --> 01:44:23,599
animals uh our shelter is currently

1682
01:44:21,520 --> 01:44:25,400
certified but I would say it's not going

1683
01:44:23,599 --> 01:44:26,800
to meet those standards so this is going

1684
01:44:25,400 --> 01:44:28,760
to help us meet those standards for the

1685
01:44:26,800 --> 01:44:30,800
future we are required to either have a

1686
01:44:28,760 --> 01:44:33,560
contract with somebody like Mohawk ARS

1687
01:44:30,800 --> 01:44:36,040
or have a shelter as a municipality so

1688
01:44:33,560 --> 01:44:39,719
this is going to help us greatly with a

1689
01:44:36,040 --> 01:44:40,920
relationship with them and should should

1690
01:44:39,719 --> 01:44:42,960
they

1691
01:44:40,920 --> 01:44:45,400
uh come to a point where they can't

1692
01:44:42,960 --> 01:44:47,840
service or can't serve the capacity we

1693
01:44:45,400 --> 01:44:49,560
have serve as backup for the animals

1694
01:44:47,840 --> 01:44:51,199
that we do take

1695
01:44:49,560 --> 01:44:55,320
in

1696
01:44:51,199 --> 01:44:57,280
question mfield so is our goal to this

1697
01:44:55,320 --> 01:44:59,520
to be backup I thought our goal was for

1698
01:44:57,280 --> 01:45:02,480
us to have like a Shel that's ours and

1699
01:44:59,520 --> 01:45:04,199
maybe they need to back up um um just

1700
01:45:02,480 --> 01:45:06,320
because I know that there's some cost

1701
01:45:04,199 --> 01:45:09,119
associated with and I think the city's

1702
01:45:06,320 --> 01:45:10,719
taking a lot on that in terms of using

1703
01:45:09,119 --> 01:45:14,159
um their

1704
01:45:10,719 --> 01:45:16,199
facility yes uh the animal program has

1705
01:45:14,159 --> 01:45:18,840
never been a stream of Revenue and I'll

1706
01:45:16,199 --> 01:45:20,800
say it probably never will be however

1707
01:45:18,840 --> 01:45:24,560
this looks to the Future build

1708
01:45:20,800 --> 01:45:27,040
Partnerships to help um lessen that Gap

1709
01:45:24,560 --> 01:45:31,639
and and try to build some Revenue I can

1710
01:45:27,040 --> 01:45:34,920
say that I've got requests from reram PD

1711
01:45:31,639 --> 01:45:37,560
Scotia PD Miss PD um PDS from far as the

1712

we recently housed an animal for Newberg

1714
01:45:40,239 --> 01:45:46,080
Police Department for I think $3,500 so

1715
01:45:43,040 --> 01:45:47,400

1716
01:45:46,080 --> 01:45:49,880

01:49:42,840 --> 01:49:46,239
be waiting for their documents and then

1808
01:49:44,480 --> 01:49:48,360
we're going to have to discuss whether

1809
01:49:46,239 --> 01:49:50,800
we Grant those extensions in those um

1810
01:49:48,360 --> 01:49:52,080
chain of use of funds um because there

1811
01:49:50,800 --> 01:49:53,560
were some questions that were asked that

1812
01:49:52,080 --> 01:49:55,639
were not answered tonight so I think we

1813
01:49:53,560 --> 01:49:58,080
have to wait for that in order to make

1814
01:49:55,639 --> 01:50:01,040
those those

1815
01:49:58,080 --> 01:50:04,639
decisions okay um the item number two is

1816
01:50:01,040 --> 01:50:07,320
being pulled it was um this is actually

1817
01:50:04,639 --> 01:50:09,800
a sign that's on private property and so

1818
01:50:07,320 --> 01:50:12,239
therefore the city does not have to

1819
01:50:09,800 --> 01:50:14,639
issue a

1820
01:50:12,239 --> 01:50:16,560
permit uh item number three the update

1821
01:50:14,639 --> 01:50:19,480
for Zoning for cannabis dispensaries and

1822
01:50:16,560 --> 01:50:20,639
smoking bapy shops um I know a number of

1823
01:50:19,480 --> 01:50:22,440
the council members I'm not sure if

1824
01:50:20,639 --> 01:50:25,080
everyone had an opportunity to speak to

1825
01:50:22,440 --> 01:50:26,800
our Corporation Council and uh so at

1826
01:50:25,080 --> 01:50:28,639
this time just like to hear where we are

1827
01:50:26,800 --> 01:50:30,920
with that sure uh first I'd like to

1828
01:50:28,639 --> 01:50:35,719
thank everybody who's uh come and spoken

1829
01:50:30,920 --> 01:50:39,599
with um either me or Mr Marney about um

1830
01:50:35,719 --> 01:50:42,840
you know what you envision for um this

1831
01:50:39,599 --> 01:50:45,239
zoning District um obviously they're you

1832
01:50:42,840 --> 01:50:47,599
know we're dealing with obviously you

1833
01:50:45,239 --> 01:50:50,560
know seven Council people with generally

1834
01:50:47,599 --> 01:50:52,440
seven ways of approaching it um but I

1835
01:50:50,560 --> 01:50:54,040
appreciate everybody's patience and in

1836
01:50:52,440 --> 01:50:58,000
dealing with this I'm going to turn it

1837
01:50:54,040 --> 01:51:00,679
over to Mr Marty um who has worked on

1838
01:50:58,000 --> 01:51:05,920
this quite a bit more and I think he has

1839
01:51:00,679 --> 01:51:07,520
a handout um to give you all a sense of

1840
01:51:05,920 --> 01:51:11,440
um

1841
01:51:07,520 --> 01:51:14,920
what presumably you have envisioned um

1842
01:51:11,440 --> 01:51:14,920
and we can discuss it further

1843
01:51:18,960 --> 01:51:21,960
obviously

1844
01:51:22,560 --> 01:51:25,560
thank you hello

1845
01:51:33,639 --> 01:51:39,800
everyone um so uh what we've prepared uh

1846
01:51:37,520 --> 01:51:42,840
with development in front of you is a

1847
01:51:39,800 --> 01:51:45,719
proposed overlay zone for the adult uses

1848
01:51:42,840 --> 01:51:48,000
that would include the um cannabis uses

1849
01:51:45,719 --> 01:51:51,440
and uh smok and vape shop uses and

1850
01:51:48,000 --> 01:51:53,800
consumption uses uh uh uh we did have an

1851
01:51:51,440 --> 01:51:55,960
opportunity to meet with many of you and

1852
01:51:53,800 --> 01:51:58,360
receive the feedback and and based off

1853
01:51:55,960 --> 01:52:00,159
of that feedback uh Christine and Jack

1854
01:51:58,360 --> 01:52:02,480
and development worked on this map so we

1855
01:52:00,159 --> 01:52:06,400
can get this out today and begin uh

1856
01:52:02,480 --> 01:52:07,840
having that conversation um uh largely I

1857
01:52:06,400 --> 01:52:10,639
guess I would kind of refer to this as

1858
01:52:07,840 --> 01:52:13,040
the commercial te of skincity uh which

1859
01:52:10,639 --> 01:52:15,880
includes uh State Street the majority of

1860
01:52:13,040 --> 01:52:19,599
State Street the exception of a small

1861
01:52:15,880 --> 01:52:21,719
residential Zone down in the middle um

1862
01:52:19,599 --> 01:52:25,520
of of course uh Erie Boulevard the

1863
01:52:21,719 --> 01:52:28,280
casino development uh and uh uh Broadway

1864
01:52:25,520 --> 01:52:29,520
as well um based off of the feedback

1865
01:52:28,280 --> 01:52:32,480
that was received from many of the

1866
01:52:29,520 --> 01:52:34,480
council members we did um remove many of

1867
01:52:32,480 --> 01:52:37,119
the neighborhood retail districts that

1868
01:52:34,480 --> 01:52:40,639
were PR previously proposed um so you'll

1869
01:52:37,119 --> 01:52:42,920
know that uh uh a lot of the the area

1870
01:52:40,639 --> 01:52:45,520
that has been selected has been selected

1871
01:52:42,920 --> 01:52:47,760
due to uh it doesn't have a substantial

1872
01:52:45,520 --> 01:52:51,079
impact on residential

1873
01:52:47,760 --> 01:52:54,560
areas um so uh with that this is just a

1874
01:52:51,079 --> 01:52:57,280
working map um and uh as far as the rest

1875
01:52:54,560 --> 01:52:59,599
of the zoning is concerned um you know I

1876
01:52:57,280 --> 01:53:01,119
know Christine and I spoke a lot um with

1877
01:52:59,599 --> 01:53:03,119
the folks that came through and met with

1878
01:53:01,119 --> 01:53:05,119
us about kind of what the framework for

1879
01:53:03,119 --> 01:53:06,920
that zoning ordinance would look like so

1880
01:53:05,119 --> 01:53:09,320
we do have a skeleton that we're working

1881
01:53:06,920 --> 01:53:10,960
on and we'll start flushing out a draft

1882
01:53:09,320 --> 01:53:12,719
so that we can get that circulated as

1883
01:53:10,960 --> 01:53:14,639
well um that will take a little bit of

1884
01:53:12,719 --> 01:53:17,040
time for us to do the that is a heavier

1885
01:53:14,639 --> 01:53:18,760
lift um you I would say probably about a

1886
01:53:17,040 --> 01:53:21,440
month for us to be able to put a draft

1887
01:53:18,760 --> 01:53:24,360
together

1888
01:53:21,440 --> 01:53:26,360
I just want to piggy back on that um I

1889
01:53:24,360 --> 01:53:30,360
recognize that there are some areas on

1890
01:53:26,360 --> 01:53:31,920
this map that um maybe more sensitive um

1891
01:53:30,360 --> 01:53:35,159
in terms of the businesses that are

1892
01:53:31,920 --> 01:53:36,560
there um that you know this is obviously

1893
01:53:35,159 --> 01:53:40,239
the first rout that you're seeing of a

1894
01:53:36,560 --> 01:53:43,599
map for example you know um there was

1895
01:53:40,239 --> 01:53:47,719
concern from at least one council person

1896
01:53:43,599 --> 01:53:50,440
about new choices and having allowing um

1897
01:53:47,719 --> 01:53:54,840
you know cannabis dispensary

1898
01:53:50,440 --> 01:53:57,920
um and or um a smoke shop um close to

1899
01:53:54,840 --> 01:53:59,440
New choices um so again you know I don't

1900
01:53:57,920 --> 01:54:01,360
know if that was actually covered it

1901
01:53:59,440 --> 01:54:03,119
looks like it may be green or red on

1902
01:54:01,360 --> 01:54:04,679
here rather so that's something

1903
01:54:03,119 --> 01:54:07,880
obviously that you know we certainly

1904
01:54:04,679 --> 01:54:09,880
want to take a look at um there may be

1905
01:54:07,880 --> 01:54:11,679
other areas in here where you find it to

1906
01:54:09,880 --> 01:54:13,560
be more sensitive because of another

1907
01:54:11,679 --> 01:54:15,440
business that's there obviously you're

1908
01:54:13,560 --> 01:54:17,239
still going to have to work within um

1909
01:54:15,440 --> 01:54:20,480
the other regulations that come with the

1910
01:54:17,239 --> 01:54:22,960
overlay um plus also those regulations

1911
01:54:20,480 --> 01:54:26,880
that the state has set forth for uh

1912
01:54:22,960 --> 01:54:26,880
cannabis dispensaries and

1913
01:54:27,599 --> 01:54:31,719
lunches Mr you have a question yeah U

1914
01:54:30,400 --> 01:54:34,040
thank you for your work Mr Mar I

1915
01:54:31,719 --> 01:54:36,520
definitely appreciate this visual uh I

1916
01:54:34,040 --> 01:54:38,520
want to direct our attention to that one

1917
01:54:36,520 --> 01:54:40,360
area that's on Upper Union Street is the

1918
01:54:38,520 --> 01:54:42,040
reason for that inclusion just to

1919
01:54:40,360 --> 01:54:44,679
encapsulate encapsulate the current

1920
01:54:42,040 --> 01:54:47,159
business that's there um so that is the

1921
01:54:44,679 --> 01:54:49,800
Upper Union Street commercial Corridor

1922
01:54:47,159 --> 01:54:52,320
um so there is already a business there

1923
01:54:49,800 --> 01:54:54,560
uh that would be one uh proposed area

1924
01:54:52,320 --> 01:54:56,119
because it is it is largely commercial

1925
01:54:54,560 --> 01:54:59,159
that the this these would be permitted

1926
01:54:56,119 --> 01:55:01,239
uses um obviously there is footage

1927
01:54:59,159 --> 01:55:03,840
restrictions um already imposed for the

1928
01:55:01,239 --> 01:55:05,679
Cannabis uses by the state and then we'd

1929
01:55:03,840 --> 01:55:08,320
be looking to impose similar footage

1930
01:55:05,679 --> 01:55:11,159
restrictions for the vape shop and and

1931
01:55:08,320 --> 01:55:12,880
the smoke shop uses as well so there

1932
01:55:11,159 --> 01:55:14,360
would be a limitation to the number of

1933
01:55:12,880 --> 01:55:16,719
businesses that' be able to go in that

1934
01:55:14,360 --> 01:55:18,560
District but it is being proposed uh

1935
01:55:16,719 --> 01:55:20,560
that it's a permitted use there and

1936
01:55:18,560 --> 01:55:24,040
there a followup question if we did

1937
01:55:20,560 --> 01:55:25,679
remove that Corridor um that wouldn't

1938
01:55:24,040 --> 01:55:28,159
prohibit their continued business that

1939
01:55:25,679 --> 01:55:29,560
would allow us to if they were ever to

1940
01:55:28,159 --> 01:55:30,920
close business unfortunately there would

1941
01:55:29,560 --> 01:55:32,920
not be a replacement in that area

1942
01:55:30,920 --> 01:55:34,599
correct correct if it was not permitted

1943
01:55:32,920 --> 01:55:35,639
in the Upper Union Street District it

1944
01:55:34,599 --> 01:55:37,920
would become a pre-existing

1945
01:55:35,639 --> 01:55:40,239
non-performing use um and unless the

1946
01:55:37,920 --> 01:55:41,599
council chose to amortize pre-existing

1947
01:55:40,239 --> 01:55:43,119
non-performing uses they would be

1948
01:55:41,599 --> 01:55:47,760
permitted to continue as long as they

1949
01:55:43,119 --> 01:55:50,760
don't discon thank you Mr B can you send

1950
01:55:47,760 --> 01:55:52,960
us a uh version where we electronic

1951
01:55:50,760 --> 01:55:55,119
version so we can kind of see the

1952
01:55:52,960 --> 01:55:58,000
streets yes we do have a pdf version we

1953
01:55:55,119 --> 01:56:01,280
can circulate uh and we could probably

1954
01:55:58,000 --> 01:56:03,880
cut off NY and reram to T it up a little

1955
01:56:01,280 --> 01:56:05,520
bit but it's just a very large map to

1956
01:56:03,880 --> 01:56:09,079
try to get the whole thing on one pie

1957
01:56:05,520 --> 01:56:13,719
paper um but uh uh the PDF you can zoom

1958
01:56:09,079 --> 01:56:16,480
in and see uh partial detail oh good um

1959
01:56:13,719 --> 01:56:18,400
so uh Mr C didn't mention the area

1960
01:56:16,480 --> 01:56:22,560
around the choices but then we have

1961
01:56:18,400 --> 01:56:23,920
another um um facility that's going up

1962
01:56:22,560 --> 01:56:25,800
near Bethesda house it's part of

1963
01:56:23,920 --> 01:56:27,520
Bethesda house so are those

1964
01:56:25,800 --> 01:56:29,520
considerations those being taken

1965
01:56:27,520 --> 01:56:31,360
considerations because again they house

1966
01:56:29,520 --> 01:56:33,360
a more vulnerable

1967
01:56:31,360 --> 01:56:35,440
population um certainly that's something

1968
01:56:33,360 --> 01:56:37,520
that we can take into consideration uh

1969
01:56:35,440 --> 01:56:39,239
it wasn't specifically discussed for

1970
01:56:37,520 --> 01:56:41,159
purposes of preparing this map but if

1971
01:56:39,239 --> 01:56:43,400
there are certain things that the

1972
01:56:41,159 --> 01:56:45,320
council would like to see or or changes

1973
01:56:43,400 --> 01:56:49,280
or modifications we can certainly take

1974
01:56:45,320 --> 01:56:51,719
that um into account and uh and hone in

1975
01:56:49,280 --> 01:56:53,840
on those parcels and see where they are

1976
01:56:51,719 --> 01:56:56,239
um ideally what we would want to avoid

1977
01:56:53,840 --> 01:56:58,280
in a scenario like this is picking and

1978
01:56:56,239 --> 01:57:01,000
choosing what Parcels so the overlay

1979
01:56:58,280 --> 01:57:04,119
should be continuous um you know unless

1980
01:57:01,000 --> 01:57:06,639
we're leaving out a chunk of an area for

1981
01:57:04,119 --> 01:57:09,199
specific purpose um like we did here

1982
01:57:06,639 --> 01:57:11,360
this is the uh this little spot here is

1983
01:57:09,199 --> 01:57:13,239
actually an R2 District um that's just

1984
01:57:11,360 --> 01:57:16,159
kind of like left on State Street so we

1985
01:57:13,239 --> 01:57:17,880
not do that cuz it's not commercial um

1986
01:57:16,159 --> 01:57:19,599
but uh we don't want to spot Z so we

1987
01:57:17,880 --> 01:57:23,360
don't want to we don't want to pick in

1988
01:57:19,599 --> 01:57:24,719
choose um one parcel versus you know the

1989
01:57:23,360 --> 01:57:26,239
parcel next door is not going to allow

1990
01:57:24,719 --> 01:57:28,480
but two Parcels down we are going to

1991
01:57:26,239 --> 01:57:31,639
allow so it has to be pretty a pretty

1992
01:57:28,480 --> 01:57:32,840
large area correct but you know I'm not

1993
01:57:31,639 --> 01:57:34,480
familiar with that area that you're

1994
01:57:32,840 --> 01:57:36,560
referencing so there may be a reason

1995
01:57:34,480 --> 01:57:38,480
maybe that area shouldn't be included um

1996
01:57:36,560 --> 01:57:40,440
you know it's just uh um it's certainly

1997
01:57:38,480 --> 01:57:43,079
something that we can take a look at

1998
01:57:40,440 --> 01:57:44,800
okay Mr Williams but I think to previous

1999
01:57:43,079 --> 01:57:47,119
conversations Mr C that could be

2000
01:57:44,800 --> 01:57:48,840
something built into an exemption to

2001
01:57:47,119 --> 01:57:52,040
incorporate vulnerable populations is

2002
01:57:48,840 --> 01:57:54,000
that correct understanding an exemption

2003
01:57:52,040 --> 01:57:56,079
um I gu I that there was language also

2004
01:57:54,000 --> 01:57:59,239
well you know there's language that can

2005
01:57:56,079 --> 01:58:01,199
be used not for the purposes of cannabis

2006
01:57:59,239 --> 01:58:05,000
dispensary right because that's already

2007
01:58:01,199 --> 01:58:07,480
being regulated by the St um but um as

2008
01:58:05,000 --> 01:58:10,040
it applies to the smoke shops and vape

2009
01:58:07,480 --> 01:58:13,560
shops uh the city council can certainly

2010
01:58:10,040 --> 01:58:17,239
set up you know a number of feet away

2011
01:58:13,560 --> 01:58:20,119
from another smoke shop vape shop or

2012
01:58:17,239 --> 01:58:22,840
some type of you know a school or

2013
01:58:20,119 --> 01:58:25,159
um a reh a rehabilitation facility or

2014
01:58:22,840 --> 01:58:28,880
something along those lines for those

2015
01:58:25,159 --> 01:58:31,320
non Canabis related um shops that would

2016
01:58:28,880 --> 01:58:34,480
be regulated over this uh overlay

2017
01:58:31,320 --> 01:58:34,480
District thank

2018
01:58:35,960 --> 01:58:40,840
you anything else anybody want to have

2019
01:58:39,040 --> 01:58:43,159
them consider look into what we're what

2020
01:58:40,840 --> 01:58:44,639
we're moving ahead on this I'm sorry is

2021
01:58:43,159 --> 01:58:47,760
there anything further that you would

2022
01:58:44,639 --> 01:58:50,280
like to to see as we're moving forward

2023
01:58:47,760 --> 01:58:52,199
on this except getting the PDF so that

2024
01:58:50,280 --> 01:58:54,520
we can see so we can

2025
01:58:52,199 --> 01:58:56,079
see well thank you very much and so you

2026
01:58:54,520 --> 01:58:59,719
said within a month then you would be

2027
01:58:56,079 --> 01:59:02,199
able to our goal is to have a a solid

2028
01:58:59,719 --> 01:59:05,000
written draft of the actual ordinance

2029
01:59:02,199 --> 01:59:06,760
itself uh within a month um so that we

2030
01:59:05,000 --> 01:59:07,800
can uh we can move forward with that

2031
01:59:06,760 --> 01:59:09,960
process because that's going to be the

2032
01:59:07,800 --> 01:59:12,400
meat potato so what we do here though

2033
01:59:09,960 --> 01:59:15,199
overly the map is just is actually the

2034
01:59:12,400 --> 01:59:17,199
small piece it's a

2035
01:59:15,199 --> 01:59:19,960
good well thank you glad we're moving

2036
01:59:17,199 --> 01:59:22,199
ahead thank you very much and if I can

2037
01:59:19,960 --> 01:59:24,199
add on to that um the map is still

2038
01:59:22,199 --> 01:59:25,239
something obviously as Mr Marne

2039
01:59:24,199 --> 01:59:27,719
indicated we're going to work on the

2040
01:59:25,239 --> 01:59:29,800
language for what the silver L what the

2041
01:59:27,719 --> 01:59:31,920
requirements will be but this map is

2042
01:59:29,800 --> 01:59:34,760
still something that you know will be

2043
01:59:31,920 --> 01:59:38,360
modified um over time as you provide us

2044
01:59:34,760 --> 01:59:40,040
with additional feedback on um you know

2045
01:59:38,360 --> 01:59:42,040
your thoughts as a council on what you

2046
01:59:40,040 --> 01:59:45,560
want and what you don't want areas that

2047
01:59:42,040 --> 01:59:48,079
you think might be um more sensitive to

2048
01:59:45,560 --> 01:59:51,199
having these types of businesses there

2049
01:59:48,079 --> 01:59:53,040
um versus other areas that maybe we did

2050
01:59:51,199 --> 01:59:54,960
not highlight in red where you think it

2051
01:59:53,040 --> 01:59:57,320
would be right to allow these types of

2052
01:59:54,960 --> 02:00:00,000
businesses um so obviously we continue

2053
01:59:57,320 --> 02:00:02,119
to welcome uh the comments from the city

2054
02:00:00,000 --> 02:00:03,599
council so that we can make your Visions

2055
02:00:02,119 --> 02:00:06,960
a reality for this

2056
02:00:03,599 --> 02:00:10,320
purpose thank you thank you uh so item

2057
02:00:06,960 --> 02:00:10,320
number four is

2058
02:00:11,199 --> 02:00:15,599
um uh the discussion regarding the

2059
02:00:13,679 --> 02:00:17,480
six-month moratorium uh on the

2060
02:00:15,599 --> 02:00:20,360
submission and processing of um building

2061
02:00:17,480 --> 02:00:24,599
permits etc for for um smoke shops VAP

2062
02:00:20,360 --> 02:00:29,480
shops tobacco or V consumption

2063
02:00:24,599 --> 02:00:29,480
businesses and we did um send for

2064
02:00:30,360 --> 02:00:39,360
a an opinion by uh from the county um

2065
02:00:35,719 --> 02:00:43,840
Planning Commission and everybody got

2066
02:00:39,360 --> 02:00:46,920
that so um we just take a look at that

2067
02:00:43,840 --> 02:00:51,119
and further discussion on on this

2068
02:00:46,920 --> 02:00:51,119
particular item

2069
02:00:51,239 --> 02:00:53,520
okay

2070
02:00:55,199 --> 02:01:01,079
mhm okay

2071
02:00:57,440 --> 02:01:02,119
so this point in time um there's no

2072
02:01:01,079 --> 02:01:06,320
discussion

2073
02:01:02,119 --> 02:01:09,239
no of the what we received from the

2074
02:01:06,320 --> 02:01:11,920
county so at this point in time we need

2075
02:01:09,239 --> 02:01:14,800
to decide whether we um go forward with

2076
02:01:11,920 --> 02:01:18,040
the moratorium

2077
02:01:14,800 --> 02:01:21,560
or or

2078
02:01:18,040 --> 02:01:25,000
not Mr just a follow up with regards to

2079
02:01:21,560 --> 02:01:27,520
our last conversation and the update we

2080
02:01:25,000 --> 02:01:29,679
received from McCarthy regarding to the

2081
02:01:27,520 --> 02:01:32,960
enforcement and talking to the may this

2082
02:01:29,679 --> 02:01:36,960
afternoon and uh with four additional um

2083
02:01:32,960 --> 02:01:39,760
shop submit applications so in total um

2084
02:01:36,960 --> 02:01:42,239
there's a significant amount of

2085
02:01:39,760 --> 02:01:44,079
um shops are submitting their

2086
02:01:42,239 --> 02:01:47,520
application to coming

2087
02:01:44,079 --> 02:01:50,159
compliance so as I said before I mean

2088
02:01:47,520 --> 02:01:52,679
the enforcement is going on let's

2089
02:01:50,159 --> 02:01:54,719
look at what's happening and allow these

2090
02:01:52,679 --> 02:01:56,280
business to come in compliance I don't

2091
02:01:54,719 --> 02:01:58,280
think we should do a moreor at this

2092
02:01:56,280 --> 02:01:59,960
point in time the enforcement

2093
02:01:58,280 --> 02:02:00,719
significant amount of enforcement is

2094
02:01:59,960 --> 02:02:04,000
going

2095
02:02:00,719 --> 02:02:06,079
on so that's my point at this

2096
02:02:04,000 --> 02:02:08,800
point can I just ask the point of

2097
02:02:06,079 --> 02:02:10,520
clarification you mean um four shops

2098
02:02:08,800 --> 02:02:12,880
that are coming into compliance that are

2099
02:02:10,520 --> 02:02:15,000
already um started or are you saying

2100
02:02:12,880 --> 02:02:16,599
this four new shops that based on the

2101
02:02:15,000 --> 02:02:19,440
last report that we received two weeks

2102
02:02:16,599 --> 02:02:21,960
ago the four more application

2103
02:02:19,440 --> 02:02:24,159
certificate of use

2104
02:02:21,960 --> 02:02:26,040
application so they're existing already

2105
02:02:24,159 --> 02:02:28,480
but they did not have their paperwork in

2106
02:02:26,040 --> 02:02:31,320
cor Bas some of the notes you have here

2107
02:02:28,480 --> 02:02:35,040
there four more should be updated here

2108
02:02:31,320 --> 02:02:36,719
okay so yes Mr T so there just

2109
02:02:35,040 --> 02:02:38,599
originally they were just opening

2110
02:02:36,719 --> 02:02:41,360
without compliance from the

2111
02:02:38,599 --> 02:02:44,560
city like popping up that was one of the

2112
02:02:41,360 --> 02:02:47,040
main reasons so I wanted a moratorium to

2113
02:02:44,560 --> 02:02:50,480
put a halt on them so um we would know

2114
02:02:47,040 --> 02:02:57,040
if one opened up that you know

2115
02:02:50,480 --> 02:03:01,560
yeah so so and I and I did um find three

2116
02:02:57,040 --> 02:03:04,360
that um weren't on the list um that that

2117
02:03:01,560 --> 02:03:06,960
the mayor had issued so I can pass

2118
02:03:04,360 --> 02:03:11,560
that's they popped

2119
02:03:06,960 --> 02:03:14,760
up na has been out St I send those to na

2120
02:03:11,560 --> 02:03:16,880
one was on Michigan Avenue one was on

2121
02:03:14,760 --> 02:03:18,960
Broadway I can't recall where the third

2122
02:03:16,880 --> 02:03:20,880
one is but I mean I think there's three

2123
02:03:18,960 --> 02:03:23,560
on Broadway already but I did check them

2124
02:03:20,880 --> 02:03:25,239
off to the rist so okay um but again

2125
02:03:23,560 --> 02:03:29,239
they're just popping up wherever they

2126
02:03:25,239 --> 02:03:31,760
want to pop up for whatever reason um so

2127
02:03:29,239 --> 02:03:34,560
did you forward those um that you found

2128
02:03:31,760 --> 02:03:36,760
yeah you already did no I

2129
02:03:34,560 --> 02:03:38,280
will so they could have been existing

2130
02:03:36,760 --> 02:03:43,079
and we just didn't we didn't know they

2131
02:03:38,280 --> 02:03:45,480
weren't on the list correct okay Mr WS

2132
02:03:43,079 --> 02:03:47,520
so I think one of my comments is that's

2133
02:03:45,480 --> 02:03:49,719
that's one assumption I think would also

2134
02:03:47,520 --> 02:03:51,480
I think I I would in infer from them

2135
02:03:49,719 --> 02:03:53,360
coming into compliances maybe they were

2136
02:03:51,480 --> 02:03:55,360
unaware and I think that as we deal with

2137
02:03:53,360 --> 02:03:57,280
the community I think having people that

2138
02:03:55,360 --> 02:03:59,880
are actively working towards once

2139
02:03:57,280 --> 02:04:01,239
they've been identified so I can respect

2140
02:03:59,880 --> 02:04:02,760
that the enforcement seems to be working

2141
02:04:01,239 --> 02:04:05,719
at this present time with for coming

2142
02:04:02,760 --> 02:04:08,280
back into uh I guess good standings but

2143
02:04:05,719 --> 02:04:10,119
definitely I think if there is a a

2144
02:04:08,280 --> 02:04:11,599
company that is not being responsive I

2145
02:04:10,119 --> 02:04:14,440
think that would be a blatant indication

2146
02:04:11,599 --> 02:04:16,400
of just not wanting to follow the

2147
02:04:14,440 --> 02:04:19,800
appropriate local

2148
02:04:16,400 --> 02:04:21,760
laws Mr Val y we're I mean just given

2149
02:04:19,800 --> 02:04:24,079
our previous discussion we're moving

2150
02:04:21,760 --> 02:04:27,920
forward on zoning anyway it's going to

2151
02:04:24,079 --> 02:04:30,679
be relatively quick to do this um makes

2152
02:04:27,920 --> 02:04:33,159
sense to have the moratorium that way if

2153
02:04:30,679 --> 02:04:35,880
new shops do pop up and they are popping

2154
02:04:33,159 --> 02:04:40,159
up um we automatically know they're

2155
02:04:35,880 --> 02:04:43,880
illegal um we can have those shut down

2156
02:04:40,159 --> 02:04:46,719
right away um but the zoning process

2157
02:04:43,880 --> 02:04:49,480
we're looking at what a month two months

2158
02:04:46,719 --> 02:04:52,119
at the most that if there's a

2159
02:04:49,480 --> 02:04:56,599
shop that's existing looking to do

2160
02:04:52,119 --> 02:04:59,800
something to get their their uh self in

2161
02:04:56,599 --> 02:05:02,239
compliance that doesn't impact them so

2162
02:04:59,800 --> 02:05:05,119
we can move forward with the moratorium

2163
02:05:02,239 --> 02:05:07,280
stop it get the zoning in place help the

2164
02:05:05,119 --> 02:05:09,719
enforcement aspect yes there's

2165
02:05:07,280 --> 02:05:12,400
enforcement going on but new shops are

2166
02:05:09,719 --> 02:05:15,000
popping up just makes sense to do the

2167
02:05:12,400 --> 02:05:17,400
moratorium for the few months until we

2168
02:05:15,000 --> 02:05:19,920
get the zoning in place so I just want

2169
02:05:17,400 --> 02:05:22,119
to uh Mr col if you to clarify um this

2170
02:05:19,920 --> 02:05:25,320
for me if there's a shop that's

2171
02:05:22,119 --> 02:05:27,239
currently open but not in compliant and

2172
02:05:25,320 --> 02:05:29,239
we move forward with this what happens

2173
02:05:27,239 --> 02:05:32,280
to that

2174
02:05:29,239 --> 02:05:34,719
shop if they're not in compliance then

2175
02:05:32,280 --> 02:05:36,280
correct then and they continue to open

2176
02:05:34,719 --> 02:05:38,079
after a moratorium has been passed they

2177
02:05:36,280 --> 02:05:40,000
will be in violation the moratorium and

2178
02:05:38,079 --> 02:05:42,159
they could potentially be cited and we

2179
02:05:40,000 --> 02:05:43,960
can see conjunctive relief to

2180
02:05:42,159 --> 02:05:45,880
essentially shut them down during the

2181
02:05:43,960 --> 02:05:47,719
period of the

2182
02:05:45,880 --> 02:05:49,239
moratorium that that's what I want to

2183
02:05:47,719 --> 02:05:51,199
know because then then doesn't not allow

2184
02:05:49,239 --> 02:05:52,760
them to come in compliance I me they

2185
02:05:51,199 --> 02:05:54,480
could get their paperwork in if they

2186
02:05:52,760 --> 02:05:56,719
know we're doing a moratorium they could

2187
02:05:54,480 --> 02:05:59,559
at least start that process and there's

2188
02:05:56,719 --> 02:06:01,520
a cuta language oh I'm sorry I'm sorry

2189
02:05:59,559 --> 02:06:04,079
Mr there's cuta language in the

2190
02:06:01,520 --> 02:06:05,679
moratorium um where somebody could

2191
02:06:04,079 --> 02:06:08,000
potentially make an application to the

2192
02:06:05,679 --> 02:06:10,199
city council to explain some type of

2193
02:06:08,000 --> 02:06:14,040
hardship uh what should be said about

2194
02:06:10,199 --> 02:06:17,400
that hardship is um just the failure to

2195
02:06:14,040 --> 02:06:19,440
you know to be in compliance and having

2196
02:06:17,400 --> 02:06:23,159
been open without you know know having

2197
02:06:19,440 --> 02:06:25,040
been in compliance is not a hardship um

2198
02:06:23,159 --> 02:06:27,199
so it would have to be you know really

2199
02:06:25,040 --> 02:06:30,599
some extenuating circumstance that the

2200
02:06:27,199 --> 02:06:32,520
council sees just and fit to

2201
02:06:30,599 --> 02:06:36,480
allow

2202
02:06:32,520 --> 02:06:38,719
okay Mr um I know this application will

2203
02:06:36,480 --> 02:06:41,079
be uh turning over to your office is

2204
02:06:38,719 --> 02:06:45,119

2205
02:06:41,079 --> 02:06:46,800
today uh and take a look off hand um I

2206
02:06:45,119 --> 02:06:49,559
don't know I don't have an answer for

2207
02:06:46,800 --> 02:06:51,000
you um I'd have to take a look to see

2208
02:06:49,559 --> 02:06:54,280
where everything

2209
02:06:51,000 --> 02:06:58,199
stands I don't think I have I don't

2210
02:06:54,280 --> 02:06:59,440
think so can you can you please um have

2211
02:06:58,199 --> 02:07:01,480

okay any other any further discussion so

2218
02:07:13,840 --> 02:07:18,000
at this point in time we have to um it's

2219
02:07:16,679 --> 02:07:19,360
the motion is going to be before us

2220
02:07:18,000 --> 02:07:22,599
forther we moove forward with the

2221
02:07:19,360 --> 02:07:23,800
moratorium or continue in the uh with

2222
02:07:22,599 --> 02:07:25,760
the enforcement and allowing people to

2223
02:07:23,800 --> 02:07:28,320
come into

2224
02:07:25,760 --> 02:07:31,119
compliance that is my position

2225
02:07:28,320 --> 02:07:34,599
to allow the enforcement

2226
02:07:31,119 --> 02:07:37,639
to to work itself

2227
02:07:34,599 --> 02:07:40,400
out so you're not in favor of moving

2228
02:07:37,639 --> 02:07:43,520
forward with the moratorium that is

2229
02:07:40,400 --> 02:07:47,000
correct I feel the same way

2230
02:07:43,520 --> 02:07:48,119
okay okay well um then that's then we're

2231
02:07:47,000 --> 02:07:49,480
not going to be able to will not be

2232
02:07:48,119 --> 02:07:51,719
moving forward the moratorium but we'll

2233
02:07:49,480 --> 02:07:54,239
be continuing with the

2234
02:07:51,719 --> 02:07:57,840
enforcement thank

2235
02:07:54,239 --> 02:08:00,599
you yes uh as a point of clarification

2236
02:07:57,840 --> 02:08:03,199
so does that cease the moratorium is it

2237
02:08:00,599 --> 02:08:05,719
in a pause status um we never voted it

2238
02:08:03,199 --> 02:08:06,559
through so it never started thank you

2239
02:08:05,719 --> 02:08:09,360
you're

2240
02:08:06,559 --> 02:08:11,239
welcome all right so item number five is

2241
02:08:09,360 --> 02:08:14,840
to discuss the process of handling the

2242
02:08:11,239 --> 02:08:17,440
outstanding accounts in um from SL slbc

2243
02:08:14,840 --> 02:08:20,400
as you remember I brought this forward

2244
02:08:17,440 --> 02:08:23,639
before um because there was a um excuse

2245
02:08:20,400 --> 02:08:28,119
me a resolution that was passed in 201

2246
02:08:23,639 --> 02:08:32,119
um3 I believe um that the language in it

2247
02:08:28,119 --> 02:08:34,159
made it sound as though we were the um

2248
02:08:32,119 --> 02:08:38,800
administration of it was in the hands of

2249
02:08:34,159 --> 02:08:40,280
the city council and so we passed that

2250
02:08:38,800 --> 02:08:42,480
that's not what we wanted to happen but

2251
02:08:40,280 --> 02:08:44,559
um unfortunately the language was not

2252
02:08:42,480 --> 02:08:48,079
was not that ended up in the resolution

2253
02:08:44,559 --> 02:08:48,960
was not what um we had discussed at this

2254
02:08:48,079 --> 02:08:50,920
table

2255
02:08:48,960 --> 02:08:53,239
so um bringing it back for further

2256
02:08:50,920 --> 02:08:54,880
discussion and Clarity on what that

2257
02:08:53,239 --> 02:08:56,920
resolution needs to look like to make

2258
02:08:54,880 --> 02:08:59,800
sure that it's not

2259
02:08:56,920 --> 02:09:01,079
responsibility of the um city council

2260
02:08:59,800 --> 02:09:05,880
but rather the

2261
02:09:01,079 --> 02:09:07,239
city so Mr Cen if you would just sure I

2262
02:09:05,880 --> 02:09:08,440
have the opportunity to speak to

2263
02:09:07,239 --> 02:09:10,079
president Porterfield about this

2264
02:09:08,440 --> 02:09:13,119
resolution and I think we both agree

2265
02:09:10,079 --> 02:09:14,840
that you know um the language could have

2266
02:09:13,119 --> 02:09:16,840
been better but at the same time I think

2267
02:09:14,840 --> 02:09:20,760
it accomplishes what it was meant to

2268
02:09:16,840 --> 02:09:23,440
accomplish um the obviously um the city

2269
02:09:20,760 --> 02:09:25,400
council acts as uh the body that would

2270
02:09:23,440 --> 02:09:28,040
be accepting mortgages for the purposes

2271
02:09:25,400 --> 02:09:30,920
of of assignment and that's exactly what

2272
02:09:28,040 --> 02:09:34,199
happened in this resolution um the

2273
02:09:30,920 --> 02:09:37,520
administration of um what happens once

2274
02:09:34,199 --> 02:09:40,159
we take um you know um ownership of

2275
02:09:37,520 --> 02:09:41,760
those mortgages um would be something

2276
02:09:40,159 --> 02:09:43,800
that would be carried out by City

2277
02:09:41,760 --> 02:09:46,480
departments as the city council doesn't

2278
02:09:43,800 --> 02:09:49,239
really have the capacity or um the power

2279
02:09:46,480 --> 02:09:52,079
to carry out those mortgages

2280
02:09:49,239 --> 02:09:53,639
um so that resolved statement here is

2281
02:09:52,079 --> 02:09:55,480
that the city council agrees to accept

2282
02:09:53,639 --> 02:09:58,840
the assignment is doing so on behalf of

2283
02:09:55,480 --> 02:10:00,199
the city um and um what would make sense

2284
02:09:58,840 --> 02:10:02,239
related to that is because the city

2285
02:10:00,199 --> 02:10:03,520
council isn't signing the assignments

2286
02:10:02,239 --> 02:10:07,159
themselves to accept it it was

2287
02:10:03,520 --> 02:10:09,960
authorizing the mayor to sign it um so

2288
02:10:07,159 --> 02:10:12,639
there was some um confusion on my part I

2289
02:10:09,960 --> 02:10:14,520
guess um from the last meeting because

2290
02:10:12,639 --> 02:10:15,960
um there was nothing here that I saw

2291
02:10:14,520 --> 02:10:17,800
that had to be amended because I think

2292
02:10:15,960 --> 02:10:19,239
it accomplished exactly what needed to

2293
02:10:17,800 --> 02:10:21,360
be accomplished

2294
02:10:19,239 --> 02:10:24,960
um and those mortgages have been and and

2295
02:10:21,360 --> 02:10:28,559
accounts have been assigned byc to the

2296
02:10:24,960 --> 02:10:31,480
city um I know Mr Brown and I have been

2297
02:10:28,559 --> 02:10:34,920
talking frequently about these uh

2298
02:10:31,480 --> 02:10:38,520
mortgages because obviously um we have

2299
02:10:34,920 --> 02:10:41,599
folks reaching out to us looking for um

2300
02:10:38,520 --> 02:10:43,599
satisfactions and um obviously also

2301
02:10:41,599 --> 02:10:46,199
there's been a paperwork issue that the

2302
02:10:43,599 --> 02:10:47,880
council's aware of um so we can kind of

2303
02:10:46,199 --> 02:10:49,920
keep track of what was assigned and what

2304
02:10:47,880 --> 02:10:51,760
was previously paid and that's something

2305
02:10:49,920 --> 02:10:53,079
that we continue to work through so I'm

2306
02:10:51,760 --> 02:10:56,119
happy to answer any questions that you

2307
02:10:53,079 --> 02:10:59,440
may have related to this um resolution

2308
02:10:56,119 --> 02:11:02,000
and um any questions about any type of

2309
02:10:59,440 --> 02:11:05,559
um additional resolution that you see

2310
02:11:02,000 --> 02:11:08,400
I'll see fit to uh

2311
02:11:05,559 --> 02:11:12,199
pass so my concern was was that the

2312
02:11:08,400 --> 02:11:14,440
original resolution in 2013 um was not

2313
02:11:12,199 --> 02:11:16,159
did not like for me anyway spell out

2314
02:11:14,440 --> 02:11:17,840
that the city council would do it on

2315
02:11:16,159 --> 02:11:20,360
behalf of the city but you're saying

2316
02:11:17,840 --> 02:11:21,679
that because our only role is that we

2317
02:11:20,360 --> 02:11:23,040
would that the city would actually do

2318
02:11:21,679 --> 02:11:25,599
the administration the city council

2319
02:11:23,040 --> 02:11:29,280
would just approve it is that then

2320
02:11:25,599 --> 02:11:31,440
that's 2013 as it stands is fine the one

2321
02:11:29,280 --> 02:11:31,440
in

2322
02:11:32,440 --> 02:11:41,199
2013 mayor my in reviewing this have

2323
02:11:37,239 --> 02:11:44,880
been part of the discussion is that

2324
02:11:41,199 --> 02:11:47,360
entity was

2325
02:11:44,880 --> 02:11:49,400
dissolved there were some assets that

2326
02:11:47,360 --> 02:11:52,920
were out

2327
02:11:49,400 --> 02:11:55,320
outstanding uh mortgages most of which

2328
02:11:52,920 --> 02:11:58,760
if not all of which had been funded

2329
02:11:55,320 --> 02:12:01,760
through City assets that had been given

2330
02:11:58,760 --> 02:12:01,760
to

2331
02:12:01,960 --> 02:12:07,960
slbc and that transferred those assets

2332
02:12:06,079 --> 02:12:11,800
back to the

2333
02:12:07,960 --> 02:12:14,800
city and the followup is handled in the

2334
02:12:11,800 --> 02:12:18,079
normal course of business if and the

2335
02:12:14,800 --> 02:12:21,280
question has come up sometimes if those

2336
02:12:18,079 --> 02:12:24,960
mortgages were going to be discharged

2337
02:12:21,280 --> 02:12:30,000
absent payment of them so if a mortgage

2338
02:12:24,960 --> 02:12:32,239
is paid uh I sign the satisfaction

2339
02:12:30,000 --> 02:12:34,719
saying that the city has received it we

2340
02:12:32,239 --> 02:12:35,760
do this in uh number of times some of

2341
02:12:34,719 --> 02:12:37,400
our

2342
02:12:35,760 --> 02:12:40,599
non

2343
02:12:37,400 --> 02:12:41,840
uh our paper lanss that we put against

2344
02:12:40,599 --> 02:12:44,199
properties to make sure that they're

2345
02:12:41,840 --> 02:12:47,520
owner occupied other things when those

2346
02:12:44,199 --> 02:12:51,920
terms and conditions are established I

2347
02:12:47,520 --> 02:12:53,679
can sign that if there was a situation

2348
02:12:51,920 --> 02:12:56,280
where we were going to discharge the

2349
02:12:53,679 --> 02:12:58,000
mortgage or wave it absent payment of it

2350
02:12:56,280 --> 02:13:00,159
it would have to come back to the city

2351
02:12:58,000 --> 02:13:02,760
council and the council would have to

2352
02:13:00,159 --> 02:13:05,599
vote on it to

2353
02:13:02,760 --> 02:13:08,360
say they've reduced the amount of money

2354
02:13:05,599 --> 02:13:10,760
they've waved what's owed or whatever

2355
02:13:08,360 --> 02:13:12,480
the final disposition that was being

2356
02:13:10,760 --> 02:13:16,440
negotiated

2357
02:13:12,480 --> 02:13:18,800
or entertained at that point in time and

2358
02:13:16,440 --> 02:13:19,679
so 2013 covers that so we don't need to

2359
02:13:18,800 --> 02:13:23,800
do

2360
02:13:19,679 --> 02:13:25,119
anything is that what your yes okay all

2361
02:13:23,800 --> 02:13:28,440
right that answers that so we don't have

2362
02:13:25,119 --> 02:13:28,440
to need to do that all

2363
02:13:28,620 --> 02:13:34,040
[Music]

2364
02:13:29,960 --> 02:13:35,880
right okay um um just yes the last time

2365
02:13:34,040 --> 02:13:39,559
we discuss this we asked we asked for a

2366
02:13:35,880 --> 02:13:42,040
list of the outstanding mortgages did we

2367
02:13:39,559 --> 02:13:45,360
did we receive that so um that seems

2368
02:13:42,040 --> 02:13:48,679
like to be something that's hard to find

2369
02:13:45,360 --> 02:13:51,400
um we gone to um

2370
02:13:48,679 --> 02:13:53,719
something like Metroplex they thought

2371
02:13:51,400 --> 02:13:55,440
some files were there there will be

2372
02:13:53,719 --> 02:13:57,599
there um thought we think there may be

2373
02:13:55,440 --> 02:14:00,520
some files here so at this point in time

2374
02:13:57,599 --> 02:14:04,440
I don't know that there's a list Mr

2375
02:14:00,520 --> 02:14:04,440
Brown would you like to speak to that

2376
02:14:04,960 --> 02:14:11,800
yes so currently we have a working list

2377
02:14:09,000 --> 02:14:14,960
that we're still expanding on um certain

2378
02:14:11,800 --> 02:14:17,280
files um through the dissolution went to

2379
02:14:14,960 --> 02:14:19,159
Metroplex because they also funded some

2380
02:14:17,280 --> 02:14:21,040
of those so the ones that the city

2381
02:14:19,159 --> 02:14:23,559
funded most of those all came to the

2382
02:14:21,040 --> 02:14:25,040
city so we're still working on getting a

2383
02:14:23,559 --> 02:14:26,280
