[0:13] prob with little two little kids they
[0:16] got everything and
[0:19] [Laughter]
[0:39] like to call to Connected city council
[0:41] committee meeting for special committee
[0:43] meeting for Friday December 27 2024 we
[0:46] have one committee that we um for order
[0:50] I'll turn over to Mr
[0:51] M thank you madam president I'd like to
[0:54] call the finance committee to order on
[0:56] the four item is discussing amending
[0:59] resolution
[1:00] number 2022 d224 to modify the amount of
[1:05] funds for Coco
[1:09] house well um M she originally sent
[1:15] consent attached to it so I know Mr want
[1:18] to bring it back to committee let you
[1:19] move forward yeah the reason why we want
[1:21] to bring back to committee so that we
[1:24] get an update from Miss far so where we
[1:27] are and in terms of
[1:30] um the modification how much we can take
[1:34] back from Coco house and why are we
[1:36] taking it
[1:38] back well I think that's a good evening
[1:41] city council hey why we can take it
[1:44] back I was hoping that you had a little
[1:47] bit more direct questions for me but
[1:50] what I will say is that the department
[1:52] of development um our community
[1:54] development supervisor make you could
[1:56] come up and join me is here with me um I
[1:59] was able to look at the last council
[2:01] meeting and I want um city council to
[2:04] know that anytime the department of
[2:06] development planning comes with the
[2:08] recommendation and my team um has done
[2:10] our new diligence and we based our
[2:13] recommendation how we got our
[2:15] recommendation is very simple one
[2:17] performance two reporting and three
[2:21] spending and when asked the question are
[2:24] there any sub recipients that we have
[2:26] concerns about spending the funding C
[2:30] house is a concern year to dat they went
[2:33] into contract in March of
[2:36] 2024 and they spent roughly
[2:41] $3,742 of2 200,000 that was allocated
[2:45] for their first year
[2:48] salaries my staff my team has spent
[2:51] significant
[2:53] time with Coco house leadership walking
[2:56] them through the terms of their contract
[3:00] on several occasions the arer contract
[3:03] says that we would do some things as a
[3:05] city and we've done that we've done
[3:08] program project monitoring we've done a
[3:10] desk review we've done an
[3:13] onsite review and then each one of those
[3:16] we have stressed the concern of spending
[3:18] down your allocated funds for
[3:23] salar um MCH has some information that
[3:25] he can share you have I think direct
[3:27] questions is more what do you want to
[3:30] know um is the easier way and then we
[3:32] can give you the facts this isn't based
[3:35] off of what C house does in the
[3:38] community me my department agrees with
[3:41] the admission statement but it is my job
[3:44] as a director of development to make
[3:45] sure that we are being fiscally
[3:47] responsible when we make a
[3:48] recommendation in regards to how this
[3:51] money is going to be spent in a timely
[3:53] manner to keep us in
[3:57] compartment so um I I know meeting on
[4:00] Monday but um had to watch it so I think
[4:04] some of the concerns proba around not
[4:07] moving forward on Monday was the fact
[4:09] that uh the executive director did come
[4:12] and seem to express some level of
[4:15] confusion about what was going
[4:22] on
[4:25] yeah why do have to because it's not an
[4:28] ex it's a public meeting
[4:30] but it's not closed it's it's for the
[4:33] sound people want to walk in they can
[4:35] walk
[4:40] in I think
[4:44] so anyway as I was saying the executive
[4:47] director did come and speak to the C and
[4:49] express some concern felt like um they
[4:52] didn't receive all the information that
[4:53] they needed um and so therefore that was
[4:57] they felt also that they du they got it
[5:01] at a very late date and so therefore
[5:04] that was why they hadn't spended the
[5:06] money as as agreed to in their cont but
[5:09] we want to ride
[5:11] that so I started working with mras in
[5:15] mayor June of this year after I started
[5:19] April
[5:20] 15 here from the nonprofit side and you
[5:25] know originally our interaction started
[5:27] with closing out cdb to Grand
[5:29] construction work the CFO was located in
[5:33] California you know the board member who
[5:35] was acting as the CFO and he was you
[5:37] know once they reached out to to him Mr
[5:40] re hooked us up with Mr lmer I believe
[5:43] his name is and you know he was very
[5:45] efficient you know think to know what's
[5:49] going on with Coco house and was able to
[5:51] close out that gr within 30 days of me
[5:54] reaching out to him in June we were able
[5:56] to clo up at cdbg Grant at the same time
[5:59] I became aware of the
[6:02] arrants and I saw that Koka House's
[6:06] arrant started in March and we had no
[6:08] reporting as of as of yet at the time
[6:11] which was May you know June July of 24
[6:15] which
[6:15] is um and so at that time I reached out
[6:20] to
[6:21] mras be in touch with uh once again with
[6:25] uh Mr wymer out in California to do the
[6:29] report
[6:30] and
[6:32] uh he was not aware of the reporting but
[6:35] he was able to get me you know the data
[6:37] that we needed to get started on that
[6:39] and I then started working with then the
[6:42] gentleman in California had some issues
[6:44] and he no longer
[6:46] participate uh in coko house on their
[6:49] board and I was working directly with Mr
[6:51] Ras and we had a bunch of conversations
[6:54] which culminated in in arranging a
[6:56] meeting at CoCo house on August 20
[7:00] 7th my myself and you know Denise
[7:05] Brooker who been assisting in the uh
[7:08] Department of development went out there
[7:10] we met we T his new building you know
[7:13] heard the whole you know heard the back
[7:15] story I was pretty familiar with it from
[7:17] working in the neighborhood uh for many years but we got we got the story
[7:22] and then I was able to we were able to
[7:24] sit down with him and go through the
[7:25] reporting
[7:27] requirements and the invoicing
[7:28] requirements for ARA line by line by
[7:32] line in great detail I got all the
[7:34] information that he needed and he
[7:36] educated him probably for 2 and a half
[7:38] hours on what was required part of that
[7:41] discussion was specifically the fact
[7:44] that you know I asked him about his work
[7:47] there and he was working part-time he
[7:49] still have a full-time job at the time
[7:52] and I explained that you know one of the
[7:54] requirements in the grant is that he was
[7:57] going to be one of the St was going to
[7:59] be his as the executive director to work
[8:01] full-time I said you might want to
[8:03] consider doing that I said because
[8:06] hiring people full time without
[8:09] full-time uh oversight could be you know
[8:12] could be problematic and also you need
[8:14] to use that money up and I specifically
[8:16] told them according to the grant that
[8:18] the city council may choose to recoup
[8:20] some of that money if a year goes by and
[8:22] they have to spent to
[8:24] $200,000 and he brought up the fact that
[8:27] you know he was having some difficulty
[8:29] with getting you know 20 or $30,000 to
[8:33] SL off until the city's funds can come
[8:36] around and we had we had a nice
[8:38] discussion you know having work in the
[8:40] nonprofit world I explained to him one
[8:42] of the things we we often do is we take
[8:44] the half a million doll contract that
[8:46] you have with the city and we go to one
[8:48] of the local banks and we say look we
[8:50] need you know you have a half million
[8:52] contract in the city it's Federal money
[8:55] guaranteed to come to you you spend it I
[8:57] said and they should be able to to give
[9:00] you some kind of bline credit if you
[9:02] only need
[9:04] $25,000 or $35,000 whatever you might
[9:06] need that's a guarantee against that
[9:09] loan and you should be able to get it
[9:12] it's been done before you can go to CPC
[9:14] there a you know that deals with
[9:16] nonprofits I say ways to do that as well
[9:18] as reaching out to their funding sources
[9:20] that have that assisted you in building
[9:22] doing the construction work and some and
[9:25] rning your programs is not a big ass and
[9:28] also at some point whether or not I I
[9:30] didn't know having just been there just
[9:32] a few months whether or not the city
[9:34] would Advance money to them uh but
[9:37] that's that'll be my next the next
[9:39] meeting we have so I gave him all these
[9:41] ideas and I offered you know I explained
[9:43] to him that I've been doing this for a
[9:45] long time in his
[9:47] position and that I could be a
[9:50] resource so we work with him for the
[9:53] next couple of weeks he got the
[9:55] reporting up to dat uh through you know
[9:59] J June 30th the next quarter so you got
[10:01] all the Au reporting up the date
[10:03] everything was good I looked at his
[10:05] paperwork you know and I was happy with
[10:09] the way where he was at the moment he
[10:11] once again was you know at that time he
[10:16] had told me that he was going to be
[10:17] hiring two
[10:19] employees uh I don't know if he ever did
[10:22] or not this was 820 the end of August
[10:25] but we did arrange to have another
[10:26] meeting this time in the office with
[10:29] including Alex to have some of his
[10:31] concern addressed once again so on
[10:34] September 26 I believe he came into the
[10:37] office I met with him along with with
[10:40] Denise from our office and Alex and Alex
[10:44] went through the budget one of the
[10:46] concerns specifically was the city
[10:49] council and uh their requirements for
[10:53] determining whether or not funds were
[10:55] going to be taken back it was I was very
[10:57] explicit with them that that if he
[10:59] doesn't spend this money you can be in
[11:01] danger of of having the city council be
[11:05] and let's work together to get it done
[11:08] having worked for nonprofit I understood
[11:10] you don't want to be getting the money
[11:11] back to the city uh but now that they
[11:13] work for the city you don't want to give
[11:15] back to the
[11:16] federal so at this meeting now we go
[11:19] line by line again on that contract we
[11:22] speak about spending the money down this
[11:24] is the second time right so my team did
[11:27] it on site I did in an office he left
[11:31] that meeting I said do you understand at
[11:34] that meeting he came he said he didn't
[11:35] have a copy of his contract that his CFO
[11:38] hadn't made him aware of what the terms
[11:41] were on that contract and then we've
[11:43] already gone above and beyond it's not
[11:45] the Department of development's Job to
[11:47] ensure that's not part of technical
[11:49] assistance that they have right there to
[11:51] assigned executed copy completely but it
[11:54] is our job to make sure that they
[11:56] understand and we did that we walked
[11:58] through do you have any question are we
[12:00] on the same page is kind of what I said
[12:03] are we on the same page he agreed and
[12:05] walked away with the
[12:07] plan again the plan is now the same song
[12:11] and dance I'm going to hire some people
[12:14] we're we're about to be hiring okay I
[12:16] got Clarity he left motivated saying
[12:18] yeah Clarity fast forward to the next
[12:21] meeting so I I work with uh Mr Reas once
[12:26] again over the next few weeks and I kept
[12:28] sing him that the the September 30th
[12:30] report is due on October
[12:33] 15th and I and I said I said look the
[12:37] city council is going to be wanting this
[12:40] report and sure enough I don't remember
[12:42] when exactly you know Alex requested
[12:44] that you folks wanted the most recent
[12:46] cly reports but I said you know you need
[12:50] to get the report so I had to come in on
[12:52] 10:26 again into the office and I walk
[12:55] through him what we would need on that
[12:58] report
[12:59] okay to number one meet off the
[13:02] regulations and number two show the city
[13:06] council that he's he's doing something
[13:09] and he did get the report to me which
[13:12] was included in in a list of reports
[13:14] that I sent out to uh Alex which was fed
[13:17] to you folks a month or two ago uh but
[13:21] once again I went through the know the
[13:22] same exact about hiring people you know
[13:26] as part as I knew he still he still
[13:28] wasn't working for whole time which was
[13:30] part of his in his contract that as you
[13:32] know the first line with him as
[13:34] executive
[13:35] director and I explained that it's
[13:38] difficult to run your agency if you're
[13:40] only there part
[13:42] ter and in the meantime that's that's
[13:45] where we are okay so then on the first
[13:49] week of December Finance Department of
[13:53] Finance requested that we're having a
[13:55] regular AR meeting because now the 31st
[13:58] is coming and they want to be sure that
[14:00] we have a plan together right so I
[14:03] attended my first meeting with the
[14:05] Department of Finance on December 3rd in
[14:07] which they questioned Coco house only
[14:10] spending
[14:12] $30,000 I said okay I'll go back to the
[14:14] Coco house and see if I can get some
[14:16] movement a clear understanding on where
[14:18] they are again reaching out to will viz
[14:22] I spoke to him on 129 he said I knew
[14:26] that was why you call Mrs verba we board
[14:29] just hired somebody last night
[14:32] again this is the third time that you
[14:35] have told the department that you hired
[14:37] somebody we understand that there have
[14:40] been some hiccups some transitions for
[14:42] the organization but our recommendation
[14:44] isn't based on that our recommendation
[14:46] is based on the ability to spend this
[14:49] money and not losing the
[14:52] funds so we have engaged Mr viz prior to
[14:58] Mitch Tak this on I had worked closely
[15:00] with Bob weer anytime a question was
[15:04] asked to Mr viz he's always reverted
[15:08] back to the CFO Bob Wier so he kind of
[15:10] was disconnected um from the project but
[15:13] we did engage him and this is no
[15:16] surprise that there was a possibility
[15:18] that funds could be
[15:20] recaptured when I spoke to him last week
[15:24] he agreed to funds being recaptured and
[15:26] said he's not coming to city council so
[15:29] between the time that I spoke to him on
[15:31] that morning and the night of the city
[15:33] council um his thought process or what
[15:36] he agreed on verbally on the phone with
[15:38] his board new board president had
[15:41] changed and I just kind of recap some of
[15:44] those things at one of the meetings the
[15:46] meeting that happened on September 26 I
[15:49] did address to him meeting the advaned
[15:51] funding and I said if you send a formal
[15:54] request give me something in writing and
[15:57] then we can see what we can do we never
[15:59] received a request so what I'm what I'm
[16:01] saying city council is that the
[16:03] department of development really went
[16:05] above and beyond what technical
[16:07] assistance is from the government when
[16:10] HUD is is on us about spending our money
[16:13] they're not holding our hand they're
[16:14] saying exactly what it is
[16:17] so my appeal is I I stand 100% behind
[16:21] the recommendation um that I made and to
[16:24] be honest with you I think my Rec our
[16:26] recommendation from the Department was
[16:27] generous cu considering the
[16:35] facts how many children is he actually
[16:39] serving Bas in this period of time based
[16:42] on the last quarterly report the new one
[16:44] is in due Mr Mayor until January 15th it
[16:47] closes out on the end of this month so
[16:50] based on September 30th in total for
[16:53] this grant period they have served 21
[16:55] young people
[16:59] quarter quarter one they served 14 and
[17:02] Quarter Two they added an
[17:04] additional which made it
[17:06] 21 do you have accountan the Staffing
[17:10] currently we have requested that that is
[17:13] in their contract as well that they are
[17:14] to supply resumees and Staffing and we
[17:17] had not when in the reporting he said
[17:19] that he had
[17:22] hired I have the last report
[17:26] sorry he said that he had hired some
[17:29] people and then we
[17:31] readed and asked about it that there was
[17:34] some hiccups and the persons um couldn't
[17:37] start um so they were back to uh square
[17:42] one with the Highland and then the most
[17:45] recent person that he said hired I asked
[17:48] him um how much was it I never got a
[17:51] name since $18 an hour for community
[17:54] outreach and they were going to use the
[17:57] other money for direct support staff I
[17:59] asked him based on his contract what
[18:01] positions are you considering direct
[18:04] support I did not get an
[18:06] answer I've also requested an updated
[18:08] spending plan I have not received that
[18:11] today today I also asked the new board
[18:13] president if he can provide an updated
[18:18] spending so M car you said you were
[18:21] generous and your mod um suggested a
[18:26] modification if you were to give us the
[18:28] real number what would I be I
[18:30] realistically I probably would have
[18:32] split it down the middle there's 21
[18:34] months left based on our subian
[18:37] contracts they have to June of 2026 to
[18:40] spend this money so based on the current
[18:42] recommendation that Lees them
[18:44] $336,000 to spend in 21 months if I have
[18:48] to B base this
[18:50] on what I had before me as far as
[18:54] reporting and what they have spent down
[18:56] it is unrealistic
[18:59] coming from me and I don't even know
[19:01] it's leaving 250,000 on the table right
[19:03] now what I
[19:05] have is
[19:08] realistic I just want to ask if we going
[19:10] to talk specifically about contracts do
[19:12] we need to do that
[19:14] executive might have to all right what
[19:18] the okay just want to make sure we uh
[19:21] don't have too much contact discussion
[19:23] if
[19:24] you're Corporation Council if you're
[19:28] talking about just what's in a contract
[19:30] that's not executive session if you're
[19:32] looking to
[19:34] negotiate or modify a contract something
[19:37] that would be subject
[19:40] to you know what direction the council
[19:42] goes what position I'm taking something
[19:45] then be appropriate go into executive
[19:48] session and council members I can't
[19:50] stress enough that we love the work
[19:52] that's being done in the community and
[19:54] this is not about that this is about the
[19:56] department making the best
[19:58] recommendation to make sure that we
[20:00] remain fiscally responsible with our off
[20:02] the
[20:03] funding go ahead so this money that was
[20:07] um was actually reallocated from a
[20:09] building and I understand all that
[20:10] process and we did it um towards
[20:13] Staffing um so I have in front of me you
[20:16] know a copy of the contract and I see
[20:18] that there would have been five well
[20:21] five and then also the executive
[20:23] director any position F there is
[20:28] one part-time position and that is what
[20:32] we receive the
[20:34] $30,000
[20:38] invoice go ahead please are we conf yes
[20:43] that is a are we confident that that
[20:46] person is still employed we have no
[20:48] documentation to support that because
[20:50] you you requested you requested the
[20:53] resumés you requested different kinds of
[20:56] reports and those were not received is
[20:58] what I read we have our updated reports
[21:00] that say that we hire people but with
[21:02] the invoice it doesn't doesn't match so
[21:05] we don't know what's what so you in the
[21:07] reporting he said he had Trent Griffin
[21:10] coming to do work but then over the
[21:12] phone he said that didn't go through
[21:14] there was some hiccups with it it's just
[21:17] kind of been there's been no Clarity
[21:20] provided to us and my team we're already
[21:23] short staff upstairs we we we've done more than what we techically
[21:29] would do with the
[21:33] subi I'm not sure if my questions for um
[21:37] should be in executive session so you
[21:39] can ask them and then okay I get an
[21:41] answer
[21:42] um I'm wondering if you know anything
[21:45] about I mean I think Mr weiner has been
[21:47] the person that sort of has been um
[21:50] overseeing anything that would be he
[21:53] took ill okay you have taken ill it's
[21:56] not coming back okay and then there was
[21:58] a whole shift with the entire board
[22:01] there's a whole new board from when we
[22:03] started this process and we didn't know
[22:05] that there was a new board Denise when
[22:08] we weren't getting the reports had to
[22:10] reach out and get this get the updated
[22:13] information okay my other question is
[22:16] just I just want to clarify because I
[22:18] think I heard you saying this but just
[22:20] want to hear it um
[22:22] so in terms of the development
[22:25] team's confidence in whether
[22:29] 25 uh 2025 and 2026 whether this work
[22:33] could be
[22:35] completed I just wanted to get a sense
[22:37] of your confidence level based on what
[22:39] we have M you want to chime in on this I
[22:43] don't want to be the bad kind um but
[22:45] based on information that we have I'm
[22:49] not 100% confident that they'll be able
[22:52] to spend all of that funding now I would
[22:56] like to also put on
[22:59] that we made suggestions to them to
[23:01] partner with the school district to do
[23:04] the Visa program with Union College
[23:06] we've had those conversations with will
[23:08] too and made some suggestions on how
[23:11] they can spend the funding so it is my
[23:13] hope that a new updated spending plan
[23:16] would
[23:17] support um
[23:20] spending thank you the remainder
[23:23] funds so so my question is so I guess my
[23:27] position is first that I'm always trying
[23:29] to remind the council that when we're
[23:30] working with kind know of the smaller
[23:33] nonprofits that we are being Equitable
[23:36] in our approach and not
[23:38] um having the similar same expectations
[23:41] of a nonprofit that has a whole
[23:43] development reporting department and you
[23:45] know what I seems like that isn't the
[23:48] case here which I know I'm you know glad
[23:51] to hear that you have been you know
[23:54] extremely supportive to the Coco house
[23:57] my question is
[23:59] the
[23:59] money
[24:01] that with the copal house as it stands
[24:04] right now has to spend that money on the
[24:07] workforce correct based on the contract
[24:10] salaries based on what they came the
[24:12] city council and asked to do with that
[24:15] funding okay okay good my thinking is
[24:17] that spending the money would probably
[24:19] not be an issue with the community such
[24:22] a great need but if
[24:24] it but to spend it the the the tension
[24:28] there is that it has to be spent
[24:31] in what
[24:32] they okay yeah the modification was
[24:35] asked to from the original build to kind
[24:38] of like staing and then we were back and
[24:40] forward and we had to change it to kind
[24:42] of like accommodate and then a budget
[24:44] was presented to us to kind of outline
[24:47] the Staffing and the salary
[24:51] level no I was just going to just
[24:55] explain so I was going to say I
[24:56] appreciate the level detail you provided
[24:59] way you got anticipate that coming back
[25:02] with respect to this but I also
[25:04] appreciate your differentiating between
[25:07] the work of the organization and just
[25:09] the communication we received with
[25:10] regards to this budget line and thank
[25:13] you for stressing that in hearing the
[25:15] two numbers that we've been hearing the
[25:18] 140,000 and you saying half of the
[25:20] remaining balance truly this is the last
[25:23] opportunity we'll have to REM These
[25:24] funds back so wanting your true figure
[25:28] and and I know it's Miss Patrick's Point
[25:30] with as it was presented the
[25:33] 140,000 whatever that new figure is what
[25:35] is then your confence that that would be
[25:38] approprate for to spend out
[25:42] mrams that is up to city council is that where we're starting to
[25:47] move that be executive session we're
[25:50] getting into the into the contract NE so
[25:53] we can we can discuss and then move into
[25:55] an executive session and address that I
[25:58] guess
[25:59] I would want to just highlight the fact
[26:01] that coko house obviously isn't the only
[26:04] institution that's struggling to find
[26:06] qualified candidates in the current
[26:08] labor market so there is a you know
[26:10] there's an expectation of there to be a
[26:13] me that that that's going to be a
[26:15] struggle because some of the uh larger
[26:18] institutions that do have resources um
[26:20] are still struggling um to to to find um
[26:24] qualified candidates so I I I think
[26:26] that's something that we want to keep in mind but also
[26:30] um Miss car I know that in the past you
[26:33] have uh requested like maybe a couple
[26:37] weeks ago maybe last month it was when
[26:39] you came you were requesting spending
[26:41] plans from um from some cities did the
[26:46] COC ever provide you with the spending
[26:48] when I requested that on the phone to
[26:51] them
[26:52] 129 and then I would questioned it again
[26:55] for an updated plan with the new board
[26:57] president
[26:59] again the board president new board
[27:01] president is the one that shout to me
[27:03] today not Mr VI so this further just
[27:06] kind of support the the disconnect um
[27:09] out of all of our 47 subrecipients
[27:13] I hav't had to work for board
[27:16] president um It's usually the executive
[27:19] director the CEO who's doing the dayto
[27:21] day so that we're
[27:23] clear what the expectations are um so
[27:28] I was referred back to the new board
[27:31] president and I just asked if he can
[27:33] simply you know submit an
[27:41] update go ahead no I was before I
[27:45] mean in the contract that we approved on
[27:48] the document that we approved it was the
[27:50] executive director should be on
[27:52] full-time so how many months have passed
[27:55] and the executive L is still not
[27:57] full-time it's probably
[27:58] M and um I'm glad that both you and
[28:02] Michelle is goinging through in detail
[28:03] because I spoke with u Mr Reas last week
[28:06] and that was one of the reason why I had
[28:07] many concern
[28:09] because what he told me is not what I'm
[28:11] hearing here and I trust what I'm
[28:14] hearing here and that was the reason I
[28:16] asked M president if we can hold this to
[28:18] discuss this you know a a level to
[28:21] understand what is happening here and he
[28:23] never mentioned to me that he was not
[28:25] full time he says he's taking a k cut
[28:28] so I asked you why are you taking a pay
[28:30] cut you should you know it was approved
[28:33] for you to take a full salary and
[28:35] there's no reason why you should take it
[28:37] is it one of the reason why it's 30,000
[28:39] and not higher than that that we
[28:41] expended today so I'm glad that this
[28:43] information is coming out here for us to
[28:45] discuss so that we understand where we
[28:48] are at this point in time and
[28:51] um I am worried that um they might not
[28:55] able to spend all this money over the
[28:57] next couple years and we might be able
[28:59] to lose
[29:01] again if there is a plan our our team is
[29:05] ready to kind of help them flush through
[29:06] it we've been constantly saying that we
[29:09] are a resource
[29:13] um but it look like you are going Beyond
[29:17] you and your team going Way Beyond mean
[29:19] we are going above and beyond and not
[29:22] just with that I'm I'm a trusted
[29:24] department and if I make a
[29:25] recommendation to you please believe
[29:28] that my team has done their part and
[29:30] we've assessed what we've needed to
[29:32] assess to make a solid recommendation to
[29:36] the mayor Department of Finance and city
[29:39] council please so we're recommending
[29:43] that we almost take
[29:44] $320,000 back for the 140 plus halfs
[29:47] left that will be an executive session
[29:50] Contra so we'll keep
[29:53] that and you just mentioned that uh he
[29:55] took a pay cut do we do we know who the
[29:57] EMP is that's getting the $30,000 or
[30:00] that no no no he's he's he's not
[30:02] full-time so he's more like okay he
[30:04] didn't mention to me that he was not
[30:06] full-time you mentioned that he's not
[30:08] drawing down his full salary that was
[30:10] allocated in this ARA doc I wonder if he
[30:13] was pulling in that I mean that's what
[30:18] he I mean will reiterated that I believe
[30:21] the other evening at city council as
[30:23] well that um he hadn't taken the salary
[30:25] that was included in this um
[30:29] I think that's what he kind of meant he
[30:30] did he exactly said that yes he did say
[30:33] that to us too he said he thought he was
[30:35] doing the right thing and wanted to hire
[30:38] um other staff before he paid himself he
[30:41] did he did say
[30:44] that I will say that in his invoices he
[30:47] he's paying for the amount of hours that
[30:49] he puts in okay so he's he he said to me
[30:53] he only works parttime there so he's
[30:55] putting he's he's billing us an
[30:56] appropriate salary
[30:58] you know for the hours that he's
[31:02] working Mr um so actually it's kind of
[31:06] like really to Mr F's point I just um
[31:09] just want to be clear it's not that
[31:10] we're not we want the C to be successful
[31:13] we you put the money and so it's not
[31:15] about not want them to be successful but
[31:18] it's more about can they spend the money
[31:20] because if the money is not spent then
[31:22] the money goes back and back to federal
[31:25] government and we don't want to be put
[31:27] in that position we want what's being my
[31:30] understanding and recommendation from
[31:31] Department development is uh just leave
[31:34] enough of the funding so they can still
[31:36] spend it within that the of time frame
[31:39] without putting other funding in
[31:41] Jeopardy so I know it's difficult for
[31:43] everybody to hire that's a
[31:46] fact
[31:51] you
[31:54] everybody go
[31:56] ahead no you can go ahead and no I just
[31:59] want to clarify again did I hear um and
[32:01] I don't have the contract with me I did
[32:04] look it um the contract says that he
[32:08] would be full-time is that what I heard
[32:10] earlier yes and also it's been since
[32:13] March that you guys have been meeting
[32:15] with
[32:15] him I started meeting with him oh June
[32:19] May June and then in person you know
[32:21] August September October and prior to
[32:24] that it has been with he directed us to
[32:28] contract
[32:30] Mr so I would imagine that just for
[32:33] clarity that the contract say that not necessar that he would be fulltime
[32:37] but someone would be full-time right
[32:40] okay I just want to make
[32:42] that but in there in his
[32:47] proposal he states that he okay will be
[32:51] full time here's a copy and I don't know
[32:53] that you have it but that is how they
[32:55] proposed to city council with the ch and
[32:58] it it says in there that he will be the
[33:01] full-time executive director and that
[33:04] this funding will support him being time
[33:07] so that he F that will help support the
[33:11] sustainability
[33:12] plan as I would imagine that Mr Reas is
[33:17] probably used to
[33:18] working um in a way that you know um he
[33:23] trying to be really mindful about how we
[33:25] spending that money so I would say him
[33:27] now
[33:28] taking a full-time position and trying
[33:30] to open up opportunity for somebody else
[33:31] to step in and you know I I I could see
[33:34] why that might be a his thought process
[33:36] I don't think that it it lends itself to
[33:39] how this is structured but I just
[33:40] thought that was important to bring up
[33:43] as well and and for the Department you
[33:46] know our book is very challenging and we
[33:48] want to make sure that we're crossing
[33:50] our tees and D in our eyes you know when
[33:53] it comes from the city's perspective my
[33:58] perspective as the Director of
[33:59] development we have to do our due
[34:01] diligence to ensure that we're in
[34:03] compliance again I can't stress enough
[34:05] how we do believe and the work is doing
[34:09] in the community and ser offering and
[34:12] our recommendation is not
[34:19] very go ahead please the next action
[34:22] since the other two items are related is
[34:24] going to Executive
[34:26] session sign missing any other comments
[34:30] well we'll have this question on them
[34:31] and then we'll move into executive
[34:34] session do we have any other questions
[34:37] on this item so I just want to um point
[34:41] out what currently is in there in terms
[34:42] of as because we're going to go into the
[34:44] funding
[34:45] um and what was also to in the um
[34:48] contract is that uh any funds for
[34:51] OnStaff positions would be de obligated
[34:58] that is in the contract to the Coco
[35:06] house any other question on this
[35:10] it I actually uh I just want to say that
[35:13] I support what Mr Williams is saying
[35:15] that I think we should go into executive
[35:16] session I don't know how we can discuss
[35:18] the other two items right um about
[35:21] making decisions about well discussing
[35:23] the other item may not be
[35:25] fully TR may not be fully executive
[35:28] session
[35:29] okay when we go executive session
[35:31] discuss the money thing come out back
[35:33] and then come back
[35:36] up we wouldn't have to go in second
[35:39] session and talk about the contract and
[35:41] then we can come out the second session
[35:43] and talk about
[35:44] items
[35:46] okay so so motion to go into executive
[35:50] session second second all in favor I we
[35:54] are in the executive section

[1:35:23] for
[1:37:22] e e
[1:40:01] couldn't we just be amending the Arc of
[1:40:04] money that we already gave to the city
[1:40:06] for that we already in other words we
[1:40:08] already amended we already gave money
[1:40:10] for summer youth employment if we were
[1:40:13] going to be giving more money for Su
[1:40:14] that was in the budget yes that's an
[1:40:17] orance so you have to do
[1:40:20] notice you're not going to do it by
[1:40:22] Tuesday
[1:40:26] oh question Mr oh go ahead so um are we
[1:40:30] previously had an agreement
[1:40:33] with yeah we can't no we did not we
[1:40:36] never
[1:40:39] did well who did we have an agreement
[1:40:41] with through the summer
[1:40:43] program we we work with the
[1:40:47] county conects but we don't it
[1:40:51] was no official was a school district I
[1:40:54] believe in this school district was in
[1:40:56] 22 yes that was the last agreement we
[1:40:59] had
[1:41:01] second I was trying to see if we could
[1:41:03] just amend something we already had in
[1:41:04] place by getting more money like we just
[1:41:07] took money from can you amend the budget
[1:41:10] but the budget is an ordinance this is
[1:41:14] now okay thank
[1:41:20] you by Tuesday
[1:41:27] understand what you
[1:41:29] say what are you saying for the
[1:41:32] allocation to the truck or that the
[1:41:34] truck I can get a contract by Tuesday
[1:41:37] get a purchase order in place it's the
[1:41:40] remaining money student censuses to put
[1:41:43] it in a summer
[1:41:45] youth
[1:41:48] program I'm not clear how I get that
[1:41:54] so has anybody talk to the
[1:41:57] county
[1:42:00] about
[1:42:01] no no but I mean I know for example that
[1:42:05] it would would to be I know I believe
[1:42:07] that um the parks director has indicated
[1:42:11] that they could use more bus that that
[1:42:13] would just be within the
[1:42:16] city yes yes how does that move that
[1:42:19] Mone I guess we can't because it's
[1:42:22] resolution
[1:42:24] so let's to
[1:42:27] C enter into an
[1:42:30] agreement agency agreement you have to
[1:42:33] have one or signed by or otherwise
[1:42:36] evidence to send parties so if we could
[1:42:39] get
[1:42:42] Anil
[1:42:44] agreement doesn't necessar have to be
[1:42:50] S then
[1:42:56] these are all going to be looked at and
[1:42:58] it's how just make it happen it's not an
[1:43:03] agreement and I have a point that go
[1:43:06] ahead please with
[1:43:11] Mr so what I what I was saying is
[1:43:14] that we partnered with the school
[1:43:16] district PR I'm sure
[1:43:19] that being that there's already an
[1:43:21] infrastructure there to help with the
[1:43:23] summer youth
[1:43:24] program then I think that that would be
[1:43:27] a pretty
[1:43:28] easy contract to get sign relatively
[1:43:33] quickly um if I understand what we're
[1:43:35] saying is that any money that's
[1:43:37] recruited we can't just move it to the
[1:43:39] youth uh Services line without
[1:43:46] an you authorize me to sign
[1:43:50] it does the superintendent have to go
[1:43:53] back to the board of education to get it
[1:43:55] authorized for him to yes which is how
[1:43:57] most of
[1:44:00] those happen if you're
[1:44:03] amending an existing agreement and I
[1:44:06] don't remember the details of the prior
[1:44:08] one when I
[1:44:10] think it's probably limited and you're
[1:44:13] not going to be able to amend that that
[1:44:15] is sure we could model it after that
[1:44:19] redo it right don't have the time
[1:44:26] isn't it the same thing for the county
[1:44:27] also they will have to have their vot on
[1:44:29] Direct s money from us from the count
[1:44:32] man will have to make a recommendation
[1:44:34] for the full full body they may have I'm
[1:44:37] not sure for some of those program it's
[1:44:41] a lower
[1:44:42] threshold there some things that falls I
[1:44:46] can
[1:44:48] sign without full Council authorization
[1:44:54] what if it was a different project what
[1:44:56] if it was using money for a truck and
[1:45:00] then something else um something else
[1:45:03] like can can we move this money into the city buet something else the
[1:45:10] differences would that has to be done by
[1:45:13] ordinance and would that create problem
[1:45:16] it has to obligate the money so if it's
[1:45:18] going internally in the city it's got to
[1:45:21] be uh
[1:45:24] an ordinance if you're authorizing
[1:45:26] payment there's other things
[1:45:30] for uh you we're doing work on the water
[1:45:35] BS
[1:45:37] uh we could find some Bill there for the
[1:45:42] water WS that use AR that's what I'm
[1:45:44] wondering
[1:45:49] uh saying while was looking for ,000 for
[1:45:54] a fountain for
[1:45:57] the one pound
[1:46:06] andry I mean just looking at past ARA
[1:46:10] applications under Parks is um oh the
[1:46:13] environmental Clearing House of SK you
[1:46:16] know the new thing going on over there
[1:46:17] can we hire somebody there for something
[1:46:20] put some more money into there or that's
[1:46:21] all pay for
[1:46:23] but got to have a
[1:46:25] contract contract the easiest way is dep
[1:46:29] have the in the city in the city and
[1:46:31] let's see how we can able to reallocate
[1:46:33] that money within the city you what do
[1:46:35] you need it for what do you need it for
[1:46:37] like 9,000 10,000 what do we need we'll
[1:46:40] give
[1:46:41] it what number are we talking about 108
[1:46:45] can can I um can I just get
[1:46:46] clarification because initially when we
[1:46:48] started into the conversation we said
[1:46:50] like 140 was the number um and now that
[1:46:53] numbers changed so are you are you
[1:46:56] asking still just for the 140 for the
[1:46:58] truck is that what you're asking now and
[1:46:59] now the discussion is what Happ to the
[1:47:01] left right just want to the truck is
[1:47:05] actually
[1:47:07] 14158
[1:47:12] okay well I got one quick question pleas
[1:47:16] in the budget that we currently have and
[1:47:18] this was supposed to have been a plow
[1:47:19] truck plow trucks were a little bit
[1:47:21] higher than that
[1:47:24] this and I don't know if you were
[1:47:26] hearing I said we lost another truck
[1:47:27] Monday was in an auto accident Car buer
[1:47:31] Pro the this is the cab and
[1:47:36] Chassis for the truck and then we would
[1:47:39] put on the back of it either the sander
[1:47:44] or a box so they put uh you know Hall
[1:47:48] dirt or other things and it's capable of
[1:47:51] up to an 11 foot straight edge plow
[1:47:54] blade so we already have plow
[1:47:57] blades go on even though
[1:48:01] it's it's the winter so everybody
[1:48:03] worries about plow trucks
[1:48:06] it's I'm just what I'm seeing here say
[1:48:08] PL trucks and I looked in our budget the
[1:48:10] P trucks were a little bit like they
[1:48:12] like 300,000 or something so that's why
[1:48:14] but that's you're buying the whole thing
[1:48:17] this is want to give me more money we'll
[1:48:20] buy but we can get by with the just
[1:48:24] under
[1:48:26] Z all right so what's our
[1:48:30] next I'm
[1:48:38] sorry
[1:48:40] Comm if we were to do an Audi if we need
[1:48:43] to do an
[1:48:44] audience how do we proceed you don't
[1:48:47] have enough time we don't
[1:48:50] have no we can't
[1:48:54] so again my thing would be any money
[1:48:57] that we are recouping we want to
[1:48:59] reinvest into the youth um as well and I
[1:49:03] think that if we
[1:49:05] could work with um the school district
[1:49:09] to do the uh like the youth employment
[1:49:12] piece then that's good use of funds and
[1:49:15] I'm confident that they'd be able to and
[1:49:18] I'm I'm confident that they that they'd
[1:49:20] be able to do that to um execute a
[1:49:22] contract contct on by Monday um so we
[1:49:26] wouldn't have them so the the board
[1:49:28] would able to meet an execute a contract
[1:49:30] I'm confident that that would they would
[1:49:32] have we already had an exist they have
[1:49:35] to do notice right yes
[1:49:39] Friday we only have two days one
[1:49:43] day
[1:49:46] no we did it Monday they're not they're
[1:49:49] not there yeah Monday Monday would be
[1:49:50] yes we can't come choose it choose
[1:49:53] bu yeah so you're saying that the board
[1:49:57] can meet from now if we were to move
[1:49:59] forward is from now to to Monday close
[1:50:01] the business and sign a contract and get
[1:50:03] it back to the mayor because there's
[1:50:05] already an existing contract that we
[1:50:06] could use because there's already an
[1:50:07] infrastructure that's been done before a
[1:50:09] lot of the questions that would be asked
[1:50:10] would probably be answered already
[1:50:12] because this is not new new territory
[1:50:13] for them so I think that if were
[1:50:17] um what's the Le time on the school
[1:50:21] board we
[1:50:27] like City it's a three-day yust you
[1:50:33] said you I think
[1:50:35] you so could we if we're talking about
[1:50:38] the city hiring just have an insure
[1:50:40] agency agreement with our HR department
[1:50:42] could we do that
[1:50:45] why so internally by it's this inter
[1:50:51] agency agreements of really a contract M
[1:50:55] so it has to be an outside
[1:50:59] agency so it's so it's
[1:51:02] $108,000 if I can if I get Paul fund on
[1:51:06] the phone and find something for
[1:51:10] $100,000 like in the water department we
[1:51:13] use it in the water department and then
[1:51:15] I come the water the water fund has more
[1:51:18] flexibility
[1:51:21] than the fund it's just an odity in the
[1:51:24] way the code is written and I come back
[1:51:27] to the council in 30 days or 40 days
[1:51:31] and we have a summer
[1:51:34] program out of the water department
[1:51:37] for
[1:51:40] $100,000 paid from the paid from the
[1:51:42] budget right from the budget sorry he
[1:51:45] actually Mr Leon did mention that at a
[1:51:47] meeting that I attended about youth
[1:51:49] employment with the school district um
[1:51:52] and s We There was big meeting like last
[1:51:54] week or a couple weeks ago um and Mr
[1:51:57] Leon was at the table and he talked
[1:51:59] about possibly hiring youth that would
[1:52:02] be able to do like water research and other kinds of things through the
[1:52:06] waterc I I think that's a great
[1:52:07] suggestion because we don't want to lose
[1:52:09] this whatever the number is 108
[1:52:11] 112 is it's it's vital that we secure
[1:52:15] the money and it's prent for go ahead so
[1:52:19] we're talking about summer program is it
[1:52:21] really conceivable
[1:52:23] that we can um spend $18,000 in
[1:52:26] the water
[1:52:29] department because I mean that's a lot
[1:52:31] of kids to hire I don't think it's
[1:52:34] conceivable that we can spend all that
[1:52:35] money because it's not like you can put
[1:52:37] the money in the water their pocket we
[1:52:38] can hire I don't know staff in the cl's
[1:52:41] office staff here staff there I think
[1:52:43] that those are considerations that not
[1:52:45] everyone's going to be able to work in
[1:52:46] the water department I
[1:52:49] agree Mr so then necess is then maybe B keep this
[1:52:58] money under po house yes and then go
[1:53:01] back to where um the mayor had mentioned
[1:53:04] that we utilize them to pay for these
[1:53:07] youth as we secure Y and I was trying to
[1:53:10] be careful for what to disclose from
[1:53:12] executive session but I would say that
[1:53:13] makes the most sense use it and leverage
[1:53:15] it exactly as the mayor mentioned so I
[1:53:18] think that we move forward with you know
[1:53:20] taking back x amount we have allocate to
[1:53:23] item number
[1:53:24] two and the remaining balance for me go
[1:53:28] before back to so we don't have to do
[1:53:30] the 250 250 minus the 108 whatever the
[1:53:34] final number is and then work with I'm
[1:53:36] Sor and then work with Coco house no to kind of spend that money but then I'm
[1:53:42] worried that we going to have to be
[1:53:44] really really really I'm looking at you because it's
[1:53:49] going to be double work for you and your
[1:53:52] stuff
[1:53:53] and that's what I'm concerned about you
[1:53:56] guys said you can yeah go ahead please
[1:53:59] but I would say but the work is a loose
[1:54:00] term where they would be a funding
[1:54:02] source yes as we previously discussed so
[1:54:05] it's not that they're traditionally
[1:54:06] doing the work they would be funding
[1:54:09] another Staffing uh resource in the city
[1:54:13] more like a pass we will have to help
[1:54:16] them with the recording the the
[1:54:18] bookkeeping I would hope not I mean but
[1:54:20] we have to because that's going to be it
[1:54:21] on us
[1:54:22] still be responsible for they're still
[1:54:25] responsible yes but can't they hire
[1:54:28] someone to do that if the money is there
[1:54:31] and they're doing this this work that's
[1:54:33] used Etc don't you hire someone to do
[1:54:35] that as opposed to City staff TR to do
[1:54:37] that that's a further way of spending
[1:54:39] the money someone overseeing the
[1:54:41] programs to hire young people I I I
[1:54:44] think the option is you
[1:54:46] know not not he's in charge of
[1:54:50] everything Mr leine well parks Parks
[1:54:53] water no I have some I have some
[1:54:56] responsibility well he can send people
[1:54:58] over to the pool that's really you're
[1:55:00] right they're not Parts funding the
[1:55:03] funding of Parts is under the general
[1:55:04] budget water and garbage F so when you
[1:55:07] put some money in there it has to spend
[1:55:08] for that purpose
[1:55:11] only again I mean I I feel like I'm
[1:55:14] missing something here but so we we are
[1:55:16] sure that we can't take the money and
[1:55:19] use it for some other
[1:55:22] you g me a scenario yeah well like like
[1:55:26] for example a splash pad in Hill crr
[1:55:29] Park or um okay we can do that I have to
[1:55:32] have it under contract I see what you're
[1:55:34] saying by Tu midnight on Tuesday we
[1:55:37] probably can't do that no that's excuse
[1:55:39] me so that's one of the reasons that we
[1:55:40] move the Other M because we didn't have
[1:55:42] a contract for those things so we want
[1:55:45] to don't want to put ourselves in
[1:55:47] same can we um so can we move up here so
[1:55:50] let me just pull something out can we
[1:55:52] move some is it water department some
[1:55:54] money to the water department report
[1:55:56] back some money to F house and let's move
[1:56:00] forward so we have some money in the
[1:56:02] water department H you and we go back
[1:56:05] and house instead of 250 we give back do
[1:56:09] they will they call a meeting for
[1:56:11] this obviously dem's on the
[1:56:14] phone do they have the time for that
[1:56:19] respect 24 hourss wow
[1:56:23] 24 hour we should know this so
[1:56:28] Monday this isn't
[1:56:32] um a conflict of interest with you and
[1:56:35] what you do when what how you're paid or
[1:56:38] anything no no well so no be confli
[1:56:42] interest because I'm just trying to
[1:56:44] figure out if they have the capacity to
[1:56:46] do it answering the question that the
[1:56:47] mayor is asking so now so let me just be
[1:56:49] clear conflict of interest if he's like
[1:56:51] directly benefiting from and we're
[1:56:52] talking about you program right but and
[1:56:55] for me I will recuse myself from the
[1:56:58] vote right
[1:57:07] thank so um mayor in ter in terms of and maybe Mr far you know this as well
[1:57:13] in terms of um Coco houses or you know
[1:57:16] in terms of their summer youth program
[1:57:18] you mentioned that their connect this
[1:57:19] connect connects in some
[1:57:22] I didn't somebody else said
[1:57:26] they
[1:57:30] connect puts kids in
[1:57:34] there working with I think other kids
[1:57:36] right so so this is just you know since
[1:57:40] we're really thinking way outside the
[1:57:41] box so is it possible that connect
[1:57:44] connects do you know have some
[1:57:45] recruiting and so and the actual payment
[1:57:48] for the children young people comes
[1:57:51] through poal house where don't have
[1:57:52] because they don't have the capacity to
[1:57:54] since um connecting connects I'm
[1:57:57] assuming gets like thousands or hundreds
[1:58:00] of
[1:58:01] applications then they could just you
[1:58:03] know then C the kid the young people
[1:58:05] could go work there but still get paid
[1:58:08] and get paid through the focal house if
[1:58:10] we're still we're talking about those
[1:58:12] things that is
[1:58:13] correct well yes and they can utilize
[1:58:16] the funding based on the suggestion that
[1:58:19] we made and exactly outlined by you
[1:58:21] there and
[1:58:23] soan it's going to the
[1:58:25] youth that would have to be outlined
[1:58:28] because technically C house can do
[1:58:30] whatever they want with the money that
[1:58:32] would have to be very specific specify
[1:58:36] in the contract cont we wouldn't have
[1:58:41] any authority to say you have to do that
[1:58:44] un let that's we could modify a
[1:58:47] contract going forward as long as this
[1:58:50] existing contract is in place okay the
[1:58:53] money is obligated and it's within the
[1:58:55] prog to spend a little bit more this
[1:58:58] year a little bit less the next year so
[1:59:01] long as we're happy with it they're
[1:59:02] happy with it me to General there's no
[1:59:05] rush to modify it before the midnight of
[1:59:07] Tuesday is there I think we should I
[1:59:10] don't think I want to take any
[1:59:12] chance well we have to modify it to get
[1:59:15] the money the truck yeah definitely do
[1:59:18] that and then the
[1:59:20] yes yes that part yes and then also as
[1:59:24] Miss car was saying I think that we
[1:59:26] should air on the side you know um air
[1:59:29] on the side of judgment that we should
[1:59:32] modify it also to make sure that the
[1:59:34] spending goes away we discussing we
[1:59:37] don't
[1:59:43] need okay so I think this is the best
[1:59:46] way to move forward item two and three
[1:59:49] to we make um a suggestion if their
[1:59:53] support for it and then the balance just
[1:59:56] reort back to poal house and and then
[1:59:58] amend the contract to kind of put that
[2:00:00] towards in is that how we what aming
[2:00:06] back well we well what the truck the
[2:00:09] suggestion on the table the pl truck is
[2:00:11] 142,000 141
[2:00:14] 1558 let's do the
[2:00:16] 142 then we might lose a little bit of
[2:00:18] money yeah exactly well I'm going I'm
[2:00:23] going by with the person who got the
[2:00:24] numbers and why if it's maybe it's only
[2:00:27] 220,000 whatever it is I think we should
[2:00:29] go says and then just like
[2:00:32] round was it 141 58
[2:00:39] 580 that give us
[2:00:44] back2 plus 250
[2:00:47] resolution truck take that
[2:00:50] so what it
[2:00:54] it's fine says CL
[2:00:56] that will be
[2:01:03] 350n to
[2:01:09] use
[2:01:11] I no no no it has the contract has to be
[2:01:13] 350 at 420 FAL house and then we'll have
[2:01:16] to amend the their contract to kind
[2:01:20] of to say at
[2:01:23] 108,000 108 420 for you um Youth
[2:01:28] Employment
[2:01:29] Program is
[2:01:31] that
[2:01:34] see and so that still leaves them
[2:01:36] roughly
[2:01:37] 24,000 M yeah minus the 30
[2:01:43] 38 yes two um 320 and if we minus no we can't minus
[2:01:50] 108 because it has to be contract so
[2:01:53] they
[2:02:02] contract so their new allocation is 358
[2:02:05] 420
[2:02:11] 35842
[2:02:13] oh see if everybody agrees to that
[2:02:15] though yes we're just using numbers and
[2:02:17] then um
[2:02:19] 141 580
[2:02:25] is
[2:02:27] there fun a good standing and maybe we
[2:02:31] can cont shot C doing a
[2:02:39] great please so the issue that we're
[2:02:41] dealing with is how can we still move
[2:02:44] the money and not lose it so that's
[2:02:46] where we're currently at so the Coco
[2:02:48] housing project as it currently stands
[2:02:51] is more us like a holding pot yes for
[2:02:54] the money so we can all not be in
[2:02:56] agreement on them holding it I think the
[2:02:59] conversation then shifts to all right
[2:03:01] how do we adjust the contract mov
[2:03:03] forward so that it meets the common
[2:03:06] conversations that have been happening
[2:03:07] over the evening but if we don't proceed
[2:03:09] with this we potentionally do not have a
[2:03:12] contract signed and lose all the money
[2:03:14] by Tuesday that's the they sign it I
[2:03:18] suggest you go back into executive
[2:03:20] session you're going to talk about
[2:03:23] cont
[2:03:35] yeah she we have
[2:03:40] any do we can we vote on the truck I
[2:03:44] mean well you have to get the money we
[2:03:47] already did we did that already oh
[2:03:50] because we didn't done
[2:03:53] anything ccle
[2:03:57] around back
[2:04:00] second well can I ask a question before
[2:04:02] we
[2:04:03] go we have to keep going no before we
[2:04:07] back to Second session if we've come up
[2:04:10] with the number that needs to happen we
[2:04:13] can't vote that through you can't excuse
[2:04:17] me not going to say me because I know
[2:04:18] I'm not on the committee you can't vote
[2:04:19] that through the number that we said
[2:04:21] that we would amend
[2:04:23] we still talking about a
[2:04:24] contract I think Mr Williams's
[2:04:26] recommendation is to put it into the
[2:04:28] Coco house contract right no my
[2:04:31] recommendation is to only move the
[2:04:33] amount or the truck that's the only
[2:04:36] adjustment oh okay but that can't we do
[2:04:38] that now is what I was
[2:04:43] asking well didn't get there's no second
[2:04:47] that's I can withdraw that but I I think
[2:04:49] I was hearing that we have that money
[2:04:52] because we didn't take it away yet that
[2:04:54] is
[2:04:59] correct oh so I guess if there there any
[2:05:02] further conversation I would like to
[2:05:04] make a motion
[2:05:05] to recoup back that 14 don't have a
[2:05:09] specific amount that's the motion that I
[2:05:11] would
[2:05:12] to what I would suggest
[2:05:15] is
[2:05:18] in legislation to recruit that money
[2:05:22] is that the council agrees to modify the
[2:05:26] Coco house contract to allocate
[2:05:33] $108,000
[2:05:35] for summer youth
[2:05:38] programs the same motion okay okay for
[2:05:42] in it might be with the city it might be
[2:05:46] with uh the school district who might be
[2:05:48] with con actually connects uh
[2:05:56] so I would say let's make a motion to
[2:05:59] recoup
[2:06:00] $141,500 from the Coco
[2:06:04] house and that the
[2:06:08] remaining
[2:06:13] um
[2:06:14] 108,000
[2:06:17] 8,4 be allocated to support the sum
[2:06:21] youth program as to be outlined within
[2:06:24] the football the football
[2:06:27] house do you think they'd be agreeable
[2:06:29] to that or to work on
[2:06:31] it or do they have the capacity to do it
[2:06:36] well some they don't have to have we
[2:06:39] have the
[2:06:43] money
[2:06:48] people we're hiring the people
[2:06:52] City
[2:06:53] Department so first we need a motion to
[2:06:55] take back that's what he's doing no
[2:06:58] you're taking back one40 so we going to
[2:07:00] take back the 250 250 so we need a I
[2:07:03] need we need a motion a resolution to De
[2:07:06] obligate the Coco house allocation from
[2:07:10] 500,000 to
[2:07:12] 250,000 Mr May um what what mood us to
[2:07:17] say was do we take back to 41 580 and
[2:07:22] that the rest was remaining and then we
[2:07:23] would then amend their contract to spend
[2:07:26] 108 420 on summer program it would still
[2:07:29] would need to take that money back we
[2:07:31] just amend their contract in summer
[2:07:33] that's what should was being said I
[2:07:35] think this raises to
[2:07:41] negotiate do you think that
[2:07:44] works I'm not totally clear um and I I
[2:07:49] guess so but I'm
[2:07:51] if if if I'm hearing it correctly I I I
[2:07:54] think it works I'm just not sure if uh
[2:07:56] we're on the same page as that though so
[2:07:58] I I don't know if we're talking if this
[2:07:59] is the level if this conversation is
[2:08:01] Raising itself to the level um of
[2:08:03] negotiations to Mrs Patrick ear so those
[2:08:06] are two things I'm
[2:08:08] thinking but again I'm not on you know I
[2:08:10] think yeah so let's let's recap that
[2:08:13] back
[2:08:14] please so I'm making a motion to recoup
[2:08:17] $141,500
[2:08:21] from the Coco house in further outlining
[2:08:25] that
[2:08:26] $18,400 remaining within that line be
[2:08:29] allocated to Summer you program
[2:08:32] support those details can be further
[2:08:34] outlined within the contract correct and that will bring pocal house
[2:08:39] allocation to
[2:08:41] $358,500 that is
[2:08:45] correct do we have
[2:08:47] a that's on the table I guess you get a
[2:08:50] second to de discuss it second respond
[2:08:54] to discuss you have to discuss before
[2:08:56] motion there's a motion that's what did
[2:08:59] second the motion it's
[2:09:00] fine we could
[2:09:06] stor program person so it's flexibility
[2:09:08] within the contract but as long as the
[2:09:12] overall
[2:09:15] allocation before December
[2:09:20] 31st so so let me try speak can do it
[2:09:23] this way I think this might be easier a
[2:09:25] resolution to De obligate the clal house
[2:09:27] allocation from 500,000 to
[2:09:31] $358,500 then we have to have a
[2:09:34] resolution for the
[2:09:36] TR yes so I think that was that's what's
[2:09:38] on the table right now a resolution to
[2:09:40] De obligate Cal house
[2:09:42] allocation 500,000 to 358
[2:09:49] 420 are we including will be going to do
[2:09:54] that kids there
[2:09:57] to some of the other
[2:10:03] programs well that 40 that is on the
[2:10:07] table was what they via text agreed that
[2:10:10] they okay with so they would still have
[2:10:13] council's expressing this pleasure with
[2:10:16] their performance and saying they'll
[2:10:19] have the money but they want to go
[2:10:22] for 10 something, 108 to go for youth uh
[2:10:29] employment and then they still have
[2:10:31] 250,000 to spend in 21 months on
[2:10:35] sou uh is it do they have a 250 or is it
[2:10:44] 250 in 18 so it's $10,000 a month got
[2:11:02] and they to use that
[2:11:04] money they wouldn't be hirings we would
[2:11:07] be wanting them to work with SK
[2:11:10] connects not the youth won't be working
[2:11:13] at COC house
[2:11:17] maybe it's sto to be developed could
[2:11:22] the school district could
[2:11:26] be St with in the neighborhood
[2:11:30] to
[2:11:32] Mr so my suggestion there is a motion on
[2:11:35] table that we decide whe How that Mo
[2:11:38] going to move forward and then we if
[2:11:40] we're going to like the ACT terms of how
[2:11:43] the contract is going to be then then we
[2:11:45] have to go back into the
[2:11:47] session if we need to discuss those ex
[2:11:50] those actually
[2:11:54] because right now we're discussing in
[2:11:55] the MTH
[2:11:57] public no I I think we we just need to
[2:11:59] move forward with with resolution to
[2:12:02] draw down the money and then reallocate
[2:12:12] it Mr Williams what was your motion
[2:12:14] again for the
[2:12:16] 100 I say the way that Mr M phrase it it
[2:12:20] simplified that entire
[2:12:21] so we are
[2:12:23] making that's we have toy
[2:12:26] sorry okay no so was start was de oblig
[2:12:32] obligate from
[2:12:35] $500,000 that 358 420 so let me just for
[2:12:39] just the sake of clarity a resolution to
[2:12:41] De obligate the COC house allocation
[2:12:44] from 500,000 to
[2:12:48] 35843 that's a motion on the table I
[2:12:50] think move that do we have the ability
[2:12:54] to put any restrictions on that 3 then
[2:12:56] I'm going to then I'm going to ask for a
[2:12:58] restriction on the one the resolution
[2:13:00] also okay then I'll second
[2:13:02] it all I so then there's a
[2:13:07] resolution to modify c c house contract
[2:13:11] to
[2:13:12] allocate session for the modification of
[2:13:14] the contract do we have to do that
[2:13:16] that's a question for you well now
[2:13:17] you're just now now anything special
[2:13:21] meetings you don't worry about what came
[2:13:23] out of the committee
[2:13:25] it's called with a very limited
[2:13:32] agenda was
[2:13:34] that I was wondering if we're going to
[2:13:36] talk about amending their contract if
[2:13:37] that needs to be done in executive
[2:13:39] session that was my question for you
[2:13:40] talk about the terms of it then I think
[2:13:43] right now you're just going what the
[2:13:45] motion but the motion motion be we not
[2:13:47] defining what is going to be at this
[2:13:49] point in time that is yes the motion
[2:13:51] should be
[2:13:53] passed
[2:13:56] session so the resolution to modify Coco
[2:14:00] house contract to allocate
[2:14:01] [Music]
[2:14:04] 8,420 is that
[2:14:07] correct um to the summer you would
[2:14:11] program all in favor I Mr chairman are
[2:14:15] we in your committee meeting right now
[2:14:17] is that no this is I think this Finance
[2:14:19] that's what I'm asking yes yes is in
[2:14:21] your finance committee yes okay so then
[2:14:23] there's a
[2:14:24] resolution to authorize the purchase of
[2:14:27] a plow truck for
[2:14:31] 41,5 180 so second second all in favor I what else do we need I think we captur
[2:14:47] that I I can
[2:14:51] going into a special meeting don't have
[2:14:54] a
[2:14:59] report so a resolution authorizing the
[2:15:01] purchase of
[2:15:04] A5 6500 International CV

[2:15:11] previous resolution to a resolution
[2:15:13] authorizing the purchase of the 6500
[2:15:17] International CV
[2:15:23] with the
[2:15:29] 10.5 meeting not in the finance Comm

[2:15:48] that's and then this not how you the
[2:15:51] agenda then you'll follow the special
[2:15:53] that's how we said it because we had I I
[2:15:55] felt like we need discuss the issues in
[2:15:58] finance but the mayor says differently
[2:16:01] so but we still have to call special
[2:16:03] meeting at this point for the city
[2:16:04] council because right now at this point
[2:16:06] I call the um committee to
[2:16:09] so so I I still have on the table the

[2:17:43] meeting with us to review and to
[2:17:45] identify appropriate appropriate
[2:17:47] solutions that will address the American
[2:17:50] Rescue plan act funding
[2:17:52] reappropriations this committee meeting
[2:17:54] will be followed by the council meeting
[2:17:55] to address the AR
[2:17:57] reallocation and this was addressed to
[2:17:59] this connect city
[2:18:02] council so there's a we have three items
[2:18:04] actually on our agenda um and the first
[2:18:08] item is resolution amending resolution
[2:18:11] number
[2:18:12] 2022 d224 to modify the funds of the for
[2:18:17] poops
[2:18:20] the modification amount would be to
[2:18:23] $358
[2:18:27] and 3,5 358
[2:18:32] 38,42 thank
[2:18:35] you so um I need to have a call
[2:18:41] that Mr
[2:18:43] yes
[2:18:48] Mr come back to me
[2:18:51] oh I'm sorry no there you can before
[2:18:55] that I'm sorry we can open this up for
[2:18:56] discussion and then the roll call you
[2:18:58] have discussion Mr
[2:18:59] Farley yeah I'm just a little confused
[2:19:02] as
[2:19:03] to I'm not uh in this agreement with
[2:19:08] making sure that we're making Sound
[2:19:10] phisical Decision here just as far as the process itself that's what
[2:19:15] we're doing that's where
[2:19:18] my confusion is at
[2:19:21] I getting out of the committee meeting
[2:19:25] then going into the special meeting
[2:19:28] but it was raised that we were in a
[2:19:30] special meeting initially so I'm just
[2:19:32] going to confuse about the process for
[2:19:34] that so I guess my main concern would be
[2:19:38] that any money that is recruited from
[2:19:44] uh kind of Youth facing agency that
[2:19:47] there is if we're recruitment money for
[2:19:49] that that will make it their also
[2:19:51] ensuring that that money is still being
[2:19:53] invested into you know use basing
[2:19:56] services that would be my discussion
[2:19:59] point on
[2:20:01] that is there any other
[2:20:07] discussion okay if not then
[2:20:10] will Mr Williams yes Mr Burley
[2:20:36] think I stay not really
[2:20:39] sure
[2:20:41] I I do I do have a question but I think
[2:20:44] we have to be executive session in terms
[2:20:46] of the terms of the contract right
[2:20:51] executive session right now we're voting
[2:20:53] on
[2:20:55] moving the the the obligation of funds
[2:20:58] reallocation funds that's what we're
[2:21:00] voting on right now and if you need to
[2:21:03] talk further about the contract then we
[2:21:05] would have to go into executive session
[2:21:07] but that's what we we had this this this
[2:21:09] discussion around the table what we're
[2:21:11] going to do and that that was moving
[2:21:12] second and moved out committee but right
[2:21:14] now we're voting on what was mve
[2:21:17] as I'll vote Yes
[2:21:21] Mr M yes Mr Toro
[2:21:26] no Mr
[2:21:35] manini this part
[2:21:43] yes so the motion um pass with um five
[2:21:49] yeses one
[2:21:51] extension and one
[2:21:54] no the second agenda item is a
[2:21:56] resolution to purchase authorizing the
[2:21:59] purchase of pile
[2:22:02] truck in the amount of
[2:22:10] 14158 should be

[3:19:52] Coco house par allocation funding
[3:19:54] brother the 2025 2026 Summer Youth
[3:19:56] Employment
[3:19:58] Program motion
[3:20:09] please is there any discussion on this
[3:20:12] item
[3:20:16] yeah so what I just want to kind of
[3:20:20] bring to the front is that
[3:20:23] I wanted to make sure that you know any
[3:20:27] again any money that is you know recruit
[3:20:29] will still maintain um and serve the
[3:20:32] purpose of serving the use the city
[3:20:36] um I'm concerned that even though this
[3:20:40] will do that I agree with it in theory I
[3:20:43] agree with it in practice I just don't
[3:20:45] agree with this as a the way of
[3:20:47] resolution I feel like we're saying that
[3:20:49] we're um the city council allocates
[3:20:52] $18,000
[3:20:54] $420 um of the 3508 ARA funding to the
[3:20:57] youth employment I feel like that is
[3:21:00] something that um you'd have to we'd
[3:21:03] have to change um by contract so I don't
[3:21:07] I'm just not I don't agree with the
[3:21:09] process of what we're doing it not that
[3:21:11] we necessarily dis work by way of
[3:21:14] resolution I don't think that that is
[3:21:15] the appropriate way to do it so that
[3:21:17] would be my conversation pce any
[3:21:20] discussion Mr Toro yes thank you so
[3:21:23] again the remaining of the 358 minus the
[3:21:26] 108 I'm not very comfortable leaving um
[3:21:30] in in the the Coco house uh for um
[3:21:35] salary uh which is in the contract which
[3:21:38] it's allotted for so I don't feel it's
[3:21:41] fiscally responsible of us to leave them
[3:21:44] that money when they haven't had um been
[3:21:46] able to spend it and do everything
[3:21:50] appropriately up to this point
[3:21:53] so just clarify you said you're not um
[3:21:56] you're not comfortable with the 108
[3:21:57] saying no no no uh 10 uh the 358 minus
[3:22:01] the 108 again right so I I don't know if
[3:22:04] it comes back to 312 we have a lot of
[3:22:06] different numbers today so yeah 2 2 yes
[3:22:12] 12 thank
[3:22:14] you is there any further discussion
[3:22:18] make another point I don't think that
[3:22:19] adding that oh sorry yeah I think that
[3:22:22] just adding that language and
[3:22:26] expectation for uh the Coco house to
[3:22:31] do something different with the money I
[3:22:34] think that that's almost I feel like
[3:22:35] that's a little arbitrary rule on our
[3:22:38] behalf so I
[3:22:41] just thank
[3:22:43] you any further discussion this
[3:22:47] so I just want to that um you know our
[3:22:50] goal is to make sure that what we were
[3:22:52] trying to is to make sure that the
[3:22:54] summer youth got employed I think this
[3:22:56] is part of the reason way to to get
[3:22:57] there um and additionally it does the
[3:23:00] resolution before us first that the
[3:23:02] mayor would enter into contract and
[3:23:04] execute all necessary documents to
[3:23:06] implement the program so um since Cal
[3:23:09] house is referenced and this would be
[3:23:10] through local house and he would be
[3:23:12] doing and signing those documents
[3:23:14] necessary documents do that
[3:23:24] um I agree with what you're saying as
[3:23:27] far as it does the language does clearly
[3:23:29] state that however prior to that it says
[3:23:31] that we are allocating
[3:23:34] $108,000 and of the
[3:23:38] $358,000 $420 so therefore there's a
[3:23:41] again you know there's an expectation
[3:23:43] for the Coco house to to do to use this
[3:23:47] for the Youth uh program and again I
[3:23:50] think that that is going to I think that
[3:23:54] that's arbitrary for us to put that rule
[3:23:55] in place prior
[3:23:58] to entering into a pro that's my concern
[3:24:01] but the thing I don't want to have these
[3:24:03] special
[3:24:04] rules for the pocal house that we're not
[3:24:07] holding
[3:24:09] other nonprofits too I just believe
[3:24:12] that's littleit arbitrary we've had like
[3:24:15] a linkage public discussion is the
[3:24:17] reason for why we've had to take this
[3:24:19] action just to be clear that um as a
[3:24:22] city we are under
[3:24:24] a de if we allocating the plans by
[3:24:27] December 31st um there's a spend down
[3:24:30] also for the um organization supended by
[3:24:33] the um by thee June 2026 so I feel like
[3:24:38] we've taking real measures to make sure
[3:24:40] that that happens and in additionally
[3:24:42] there's been a commitment to assist to
[3:24:44] make sure that the summer program
[3:24:46] happens
[3:24:46] and I know that M that's something that
[3:24:48] you definitely wanted so with with time
[3:24:51] not on our side we have I felt like
[3:24:55] really worked hard uh these last few
[3:24:56] hours to make every accommodation to
[3:24:59] both um make sure that Coco house is
[3:25:02] able to move forward in their
[3:25:04] programming and have salaries and based
[3:25:06] on their the performance to date and
[3:25:09] additionally making sure that this
[3:25:10] summer program so um I understand that
[3:25:13] not everyone can agree on on everything
[3:25:15] but I just want to make it very clear
[3:25:17] that um this is not just an arbitrary
[3:25:19] decision but one that's made by the fact
[3:25:21] that we have a deadline to face and
[3:25:24] additionally we want to also um
[3:25:27] accomplish certain things when it comes
[3:25:28] to youth in terms of summer employment
[3:25:31] and this based on what we have in front
[3:25:32] of us is um has been determined by the
[3:25:35] majority of the body as the best course
[3:25:37] of action thank you you're welcome Mr M
[3:25:42] yes I just want to comment on on this
[3:25:44] item here I mean this is the best option
[3:25:46] that we have on P fundaments this is for
[3:25:50] over a twoyear period which um allowing
[3:25:53] them to with our help from the city to
[3:25:56] spend
[3:25:57] $118,400 towards the you program we it's will be I it's impossible to get a
[3:26:05] contract signed by midnight Tuesday with
[3:26:09] the county or the school district with
[3:26:11] all the things in place that has to go
[3:26:14] through with the board meeting the
[3:26:16] legislative meeting or the manager has
[3:26:18] do some sort of special something there
[3:26:20] to get this done so by reallocating
[3:26:23] modifying the contract and put this
[3:26:25] money into the you Employment Program
[3:26:27] line and the city is going to help over
[3:26:30] house administ this program I think this
[3:26:32] is the best fit for this money at this
[3:26:35] point in time if we don't do this we
[3:26:38] spend a greater chance of losing this
[3:26:41] money so I think what we're doing here
[3:26:43] is the best way forward and all of us
[3:26:46] will have to chip in and help to make
[3:26:48] sure that the youth program under C
[3:26:50] house is uh is fully
[3:26:55] executed something there more discussion
[3:26:57] Mr far yeah so I want to just be again I
[3:27:00] don't think that u i I agree um and I
[3:27:04] understand how how we um what the
[3:27:06] there's a merit in in the action that's
[3:27:08] happening for clarity like my earlier my
[3:27:11] earlier extension was because of the
[3:27:14] process of how we're getting here
[3:27:16] not necessarily that we're here so I
[3:27:19] don't think that um if it's unrealistic
[3:27:21] for the school district the county
[3:27:23] another not whoever if the timeline is
[3:27:26] indeed is not on our side definitely not
[3:27:28] arguing that not debating that what I'm
[3:27:30] saying is by I feel like this
[3:27:32] stipulation by way of resolution instead
[3:27:35] of just way of contract I think is is is something that I just I'm not
[3:27:40] agreeable too again thank you all for
[3:27:42] hearing me
[3:27:44] out so just again clear the resolution
[3:27:47] is to for the mayor to enter into an
[3:27:48] agreement that is why the language is is
[3:27:50] in there so
[3:27:53] um we
[3:27:55] had L discussioni to this and so um is
