council's concerns 218 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:54,879 expressed at the december 10th council 219 00:07:54,879 --> 00:07:56,080 meeting 220 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:57,759 toward the end of december it became 221 00:07:57,759 --> 00:07:59,360 apparent that it would be unlikely for 222 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,120 broomfield council to replace my 223 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:02,160 services 224 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:06,000 by january 1st 2021 so following contact 225 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,080 by numerous stakeholders urging me to 226 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:09,280 reconsider 227 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,440 along with a lengthy conversation and an 228 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:14,080 apology for mayor quinn 229 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,000 as an act of goodwill i agreed to

00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:23,759 council in a public forum 234 00:08:23,759 --> 00:08:26,400 as you are aware the executed iga has a 235 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,039 120-day termination notice available to 236 00:08:29,039 --> 00:08:30,560 both parties 237 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:32,399 while i have signed the iga and have 238 00:08:32,399 --> 00:08:34,080 agreed to further discussions with your 239 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:34,959 council 240 00:08:34,959 --> 00:08:37,760 my previous assertions have not changed 241 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:39,519 if the broomfield council members lack 242 00:08:39,519 --> 00:08:41,120 confidence in the services that my 243 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:42,399 office provides 244 00:08:42,399 --> 00:08:44,000 then you need to find a new coroner for 245 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:45,519 your community 246 00:08:45,519 --> 00:08:47,360 the adams county coroner's office serves 247 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,120 eight cities in addition to the city and 248 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:50,560 county of broomfield 249 00:08:50,560 --> 00:08:52,240 along with all of the unincorporated 250 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,880 areas covering a geographic area of 251 00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:58,000 approximately 1200 square miles 252 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,240 my first priority is and always will be 253 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,959 serving the citizens of adams county 254 00:09:02,959 --> 00:09:04,720 serving such a large population 255 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:06,720 generates approximately five thousand 256 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:08,720 reported deaths per year 257 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:10,800 of which broomfield comprises less than 258 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:12,480 400. 259 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:14,240 the adams county coroner's office has 260 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:16,800 provided coroner services to broomfield 261 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,600 for 20 years 10 of which have been under 262 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,120 my leadership 263 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:22,560 there appears to be a significant 264 00:09:22,560 --> 00:09:24,959 misunderstanding by members of this 265 00:09:24,959 --> 00:09:27,040 council about who derives benefit from 266 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:28,560 this arrangement 267 00:09:28,560 --> 00:09:30,160 i am not here to earn the business of 268 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:31,839 your community i 269 00:09:31,839 --> 00:09:34,720 my staff in my office benefit in no way 270 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:36,320 from this agreement 271 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:38,160 i have maintained this agreement merely 272 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:39,920 as a good neighbor and to support the 273 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:41,920 17th judicial district 274 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:45,120 which the two counties comprise this 275 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:46,640 agreement was never intended to be a 276 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:48,800 revenue generating arrangement 277 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:50,480 i have always been extremely fair in 278 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,080 what i have charged broomfield for 279 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:53,839 coroner services 280 00:09:53,839 --> 00:09:55,760 the revenue generated by this agreement 281 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,480 for adams county is insignificant 282 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,040 this agreement not only provides your 283 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:02,720 community with a vital public service 284 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:04,320 and supports broomfield's judicial 285 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:05,519 district 286 00:10:05,519 --> 00:10:07,040 but it also saves your county the 287 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:08,800 millions of dollars it would cost for 288 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,040 the infrastructure and ongoing budget to 289 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,519 support your own coroner's office 290 00:10:13,519 --> 00:10:15,360 now obviously i'm not the only coroner 291 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,040 that you can contract with 292 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,200 there are 63 other coroners in the state 293 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:20,800 of colorado that you can try to do 294 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:22,399 business with 295 00:10:22,399 --> 00:10:24,240 however if you have confidence in the 296 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,399 services my office provides 297 00:10:26,399 --> 00:10:28,320 and wish to continue to utilize these 298 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:30,480 services then i think it is important 299 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:32,160 for the council to understand what this 300 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:36,000 arrangement will look like going forward 301 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,320 mr elijah mcclain's death is tragic in 302 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:39,200 every way 303 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,120 and i certainly understand the questions 304 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:42,880 surrounding his death 305 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,600 having questions is not the issue at 306 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:46,079 this 307 00:10:46,079 --> 00:10:48,320 at the december 10th council meeting 308 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,959 broomfield council member devin schaff 309 00:10:50,959 --> 00:10:52,800 voiced concerns that i had committed 310 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:54,640 official misconduct related to the 311 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:57,040 mclean death investigation 312 00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:58,959 he then directed a litany of questions 313 00:10:58,959 --> 00:11:01,040 to me at a meeting that i was clearly 314 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:02,560 not at 315 00:11:02,560 --> 00:11:04,480 the broom the majority of broomfield 316 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:06,399 council present then followed in suit 317 00:11:06,399 --> 00:11:08,880 expressing similar sentiments 318 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:11,120 then despite such serious concerns and 319 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:13,360 having no answer to these questions 320 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:15,279 the broomfield council unanimously 321 00:11:15,279 --> 00:11:17,360 approved contracting with my office for 322 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:19,839 yet another year 323 00:11:19,839 --> 00:11:22,079 i find approving a new contract on the 324 00:11:22,079 --> 00:11:23,760 heels of expressing 325 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,720 such serious concerns illogical it gives 326 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:28,000 the appearance 327 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,480 that these concerns were disingenuous 328 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:32,720 and nothing more than devin's shaft 329 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,200 and council members public pandering 330 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:36,720 virtue signaling 331 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,040 and utilizing this extremely tragic 332 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:39,839 death 333 00:11:39,839 --> 00:11:42,959 for their own political aggrandizement 334 00:11:42,959 --> 00:11:46,079 mr

--> 00:14:48,880 more interest in grinding in acts 429 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:50,720 and opening wounds in the name of social 430 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:52,240 justice 431 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,120 on top of that the questions were raised 432 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:55,760 and were done 433 00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:57,600 in a setting where the very office that 434 00:14:57,600 --> 00:14:59,680 council member shaft questioned 435 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,800 was not available to discuss or respond 436 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:04,560 it's concerning that based on the tact 437

440 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:13,440 the adams county coroner's office 441 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:15,279 declined to renew the agreement 442 00:15:15,279 --> 00:15:17,279 shortly after the comments were made the 443 00:15:17,279 --> 00:15:18,959 negligence caused the city and county 444 00:15:18,959 --> 00:15:20,480 and broomfield to be at risk 445 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,240 for not having a corner for the 446 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:25,839 community and was a significant mistake 447 00:15:25,839 --> 00:15:27,360 that mayor quinn acknowledged when he 448 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:27,839 said 449 00:15:27,839 --> 00:15:29,920 that the agreement was quote not handled 450 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:31,040 properly 451 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:32,720 and was followed by an apology by the 452

police officer or a police 638 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:42,000 department 639 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,240 uh what interaction exists before and 640 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:46,559 during the autopsy and before the 641 00:22:46,559 --> 00:22:50,630 autopsy report is completed 642 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:54,000 interaction with who the police 643 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,480 when there is a death involving a police 644 00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:57,679 and 645 00:22:57,679 --> 00:23:01,760 when there is a a non-police officer 646 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:02,400 death 647 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:04,559 uh that involves uh that there is a 648 00:23:04,559 --> 00:23:06,080 possible connection to a death by a 649 00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:08,000 police officer or involving a police 650 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:11,200 department what is the interaction 651 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:12,559 what is the further interaction with 652 00:23:12,559 --> 00:23:14,640 that police officer or that police 653 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:15,600 department 654 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:20,310 in the investigation of that death 655 00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:23,039 i think i understand what you're asking 656 00:23:23,039 --> 00:23:24,000 so 657 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:27,600 the investigating agency might be the 658 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:29,919 police department that was involved 659 00:23:29,919 --> 00:23:32,159 or it might be another investigating 660 00:23:32,159 --> 00:23:33,200 agency 661 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:34,880 that is not something that eyes the 662 00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:36,799 coroner get to decide i don't get to 663 00:23:36,799 --> 00:23:37,600 pick 664 00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:40,880 which agency is investigating the 665 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,440 criminal aspect of a case 666 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:46,080 but whatever agency is investigating the 667 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:47,840 criminal aspect of the case 668 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:58,950 i am required by law to interact with 669 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,919 great is it common practice to have the 670 00:24:01,919 --> 00:24:03,279 police department around while 671 00:24:03,279 --> 00:24:04,720 conducting the autopsy 672 00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:06,159 of someone potentially killed at the 673 00:24:06,159 --> 00:24:08,559 hands of a said police 674 00:24:08,559 --> 00:24:11,840 department like i said 675 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:13,840 i am required by law to interact with 676 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:16,000 whatever agency is investigating the 677 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,240 criminal aspects of the case 678 00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:21,200 if that happens to be the same agency 679 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:23,279 that was involved in the case 680 00:24:23,279 --> 00:24:25,679 then i am required to interact with them 681 00:24:25,679 --> 00:24:28,159 and they routinely come to autopsies as 682 00:24:28,159 --> 00:24:28,559 does 683 00:24:28,559 --> 00:24:30,240 the public defender if they're involved 684 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:31,919 in the case or the d.a if they're 685 00:24:31,919 --> 00:24:35,190 involved in the case 686 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,440 uh when a when the death is reported as 687 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:39,360 a as undetermined 688 00:24:39,360 --> 00:24:41,679 or maybe undetermined what is the policy 689 00:24:41,679 --> 00:24:43,360 and practice in your office for seeking 690 00:24:43,360 --> 00:24:46,080 a second opinion 691 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:48,400 it is not common practice or policy in 692 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:50,320 my office to seek a second opinion 693 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:52,240 nor is that standard of practice in the 694 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:53,520 united states 695 00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,240 however all cases can be reviewed at any 696 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:57,120 point in time 697 00:24:57,120 --> 00:25:02,149 by any other professional 698 00:25:02,159 --> 00:25:05,440 what what would be the uh the factor 699 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:06,240 that you would need 700 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:08,080 in order to seek a second opinion on a 701 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:12,390 deaf case where it's undetermined 702 00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:15,600 um that is too vague to answer it really 703 00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:21,510 is case specific 704 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:26,960 you don't have any metrics for when that second opinion would be seeked 705 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:28,640 no if there were questions about the 706 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,039 interpretation of the medical findings 707 00:25:31,039 --> 00:25:32,799 and that is an instance where i would 708 00:25:32,799 --> 00:25:34,480 seek a second opinion 709 00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:36,720 um if the medical findings seem clear 710 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:38,720 and are easily interpretable 711 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:40,240 then that is not a case that i would 712 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:42,400 commonly seek a second opinion on 713 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:45,360 but it's really case specific right i 714 00:25:45,360 --> 00:25:46,799 appreciate that 715 00:25:46,799 --> 00:25:48,880 at what point in the autopsy process are 716 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:50,640 witness statements police reports and 717 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:52,240 video of the incident gathered in order 718 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:56,320 to complete the autopsy report 719 00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:57,840 those are gathered throughout the 720 00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:01,440 process so it just depends on 721 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:03,200 how quickly we can get the information 722 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:05,279 what it is we're attempting to gather 723 00:26:05,279 --> 00:26:06,640 but they are gathered throughout the 724 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:08,799 entire process so some of those may come 725 00:26:08,799 --> 00:26:10,080 in before the autopsy 726 00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:11,520 some of them may come in after the 727 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:13,360 autopsy is done 728 00:26:13,360 --> 00:26:15,039 but they would all theoretically come in 729 00:26:15,039 --> 00:26:18,080 before the autopsy report was completed 730 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,559 not necessarily the autopsy report draft 731 00:26:20,559 --> 00:26:22,320 is done immediately after the autopsy 732 00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:24,080 and then the final report 733 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:27,440 is put out after all the information is 734 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:30,630 obtained 735 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:32,880 mayor can i interrupt and call uh the 736 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:34,480 meeting to order for a second 737 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:37,600 i've got a i've got a question 738 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:42,400 the intent of this i i believe is um 739 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:44,320 maybe not appropriate where it's going 740 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:45,840 for for online 741 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:47,440 stream of questioning it's more 742 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:49,440 informational and i think devin can 743 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,640 or council member shop give a call 744 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:56,799 to um miss bruce jordan 745 00:26:56,799 --> 00:26:58,720 i i think we've already put her through 746 00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:01,279 enough she's a professional 747 00:27:01,279 --> 00:27:03,120 and i would i would want to make sure 748 00:27:03,120 --> 00:27:05,200 that she's welcome to 749 00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:07,919 continue with it but i i do think that 750 00:27:07,919 --> 00:27:09,600 the intent of this 751 00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:11,840 was to give her a chance to talk to us 752 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:12,880 publicly 753 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:16,000 but not to be grilled again in public 754 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:19,679 so um i'd like the council to consider 755 00:27:19,679 --> 00:27:22,480 not uh taking this line of questioning 756 00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:22,880 and 757 00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:25,760 maybe council member chef you can take 758 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:31,590 that offline 759 00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:33,279 i appreciate that you know council 760 00:27:33,279 --> 00:27:34,640 member shop obviously 761 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:37,600 um hold on hold on mayor uh so i believe 762 00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,080 that the the motion was a point of order 763 00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:41,600 uh she said that she would like to call 764 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:43,360 the meeting to order which is which is 765 00:27:43,360 --> 00:27:44,320 not correct 766 00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:46,240 it is a point of order so could you rule 767 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:49,440 on that point of order mayor 768 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:52,399 what i'm going to say is first of all 769 00:27:52,399 --> 00:27:54,080 i'm going to go ahead and recognize uh 770 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:54,880 you know 771 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:57,600 the because monica and i and jennifer 772 00:27:57,600 --> 00:27:59,200 had a lot of discussions about tonight 773 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:00,640 and part of the point about tonight was 774 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:03,200 to give to give miss barakushia jordan 775 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:05,120 the chance to to respond in public to 776 00:28:05,120 --> 00:28:05,760 the questions 777 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:07,679 that had been made in public you know in 778 00:28:07,679 --> 00:28:08,799 public and so 779 00:28:08,799 --> 00:28:10,480 my point is that was the point of 780 00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:12,720 tonight's meeting but monica if you want 781 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:13,760 to add 782 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:15,919 if you want to make a comment on on 783 00:28:15,919 --> 00:28:17,279 because 784 00:28:17,279 --> 00:28:20,480 this isn't in our book anywhere meaning 785 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:21,600 that we we're you know 786 00:28:21,600 -->

appreciate that i think that it's 789 00:28:31,360 --> 00:28:33,600 pretty clear about um how i feel about 790 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:35,679 devin schaff and his comments 791 00:28:35,679 --> 00:28:37,520 um educating the council on the office 792 00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:39,039 of the coroner specifically the 793 00:28:39,039 --> 00:28:40,559 standards of practice for police 794 00:28:40,559 --> 00:28:42,000 involved deaths is 795 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:43,840 far too lengthy of a discussion for this 796 00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:46,559 evening if there is a genuine interest i 797 00:28:46,559 --> 00:28:48,399 am happy to host the council at my 798 00:28:48,399 --> 00:28:49,440 facility 799 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:51,440 and arrange and arrange a presentation 800 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:52,640 on this topic 801 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:54,960 i also teach every year at the 17th 802 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:55,679 judicial 803 00:28:55,679 --> 00:28:58,000 district citizens academy and one and 804 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,080 would encourage you all to attend 805 00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:01,520 um this academy for a better 806 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:02,960 understanding of the coroner's role as 807 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:05,039 well as the entire judicial system 808 00:29:05,039 --> 00:29:07,360 um mr schaff i think needs a an 809 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:08,960 understanding a basic rudimentary 810 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:10,640 understanding of the system 811 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:12,559 before um asking these types of 812 00:29:12,559 --> 00:29:15,750 questions 813 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:19,279 not having a uh not having a script for 814 00:29:19,279 --> 00:29:19,760 tonight 815 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,080 i think you're offered to invite those 816 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:23,520 who are interested 817 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:26,640 to participate as a very genuine offer 818 00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:28,960 uh that that perhaps several of the 819 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:38,830 council members should take advantage of um and uh 820 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:41,840 it 821 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,559 so i want to god's offer i want us to 822 00:29:44,559 --> 00:29:46,399 consider taking up that offer before you 823 00:29:46,399 --> 00:29:46,720 know 824 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:49,200 we we do anything tonight so devin how 825 00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:50,000 many more questions 826 00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:51,360 you want to i mean if you do want to get 827 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:52,960 into the details or office and what

00:30:00,399 --> 00:30:01,840 in her office and understand the 832 00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:03,760 procedures that she has 833 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:07,039 otherwise tonight's gonna be cursory and uh 834 00:30:07,039 --> 00:30:08,399 and probably not as meaningful as it 835 00:30:08,399 --> 00:30:10,399 could be if we if we could have a 836 00:30:10,399 --> 00:30:12,159 detailed meeting with her uh say 837 00:30:12,159 --> 00:30:14,240 sometime in the next 838 00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:18,230 few weeks 839 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:20,640 thanks mayor um so my understanding 840 00:30:20,640 -->

00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:00,079 do 960 00:35:00,079 --> 00:35:02,240 think that in the seven years that i've 961 00:35:02,240 --> 00:35:03,680 been on council 962 00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:07,200 um we

to do that however i do 966 00:35:13,599 --> 00:35:14,640 feel that it is 967 00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:18,320 inappropriate for this body to 968 00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:22,640 um try and try and analyze the situation 969 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:23,839 this tragic 970 00:35:23,839 --> 00:35:26,720 event that happened uh and and try and 971 00:35:26,720 --> 00:35:30,960 investigate it and that was what um what i objected to 972 00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:32,000 earlier 973 00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:33,920 when we had the meeting some some weeks 974 00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:36,160 ago where we approved this is 975 00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:38,320 the process i want to make this point 976 00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:40,160 that the process 977 00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:43,440 investigating mr mclean's death 978 00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:46,720 is working the attorney general has 979 00:35:46,720 --> 00:35:48,400 called for a grand jury 980 00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:50,320 and that's the way the process is 981 00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:51,920 supposed to work 982 00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:56,000 for us as a body who has 983 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:59,280 no formal responsibility in this case 984 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:01,839 for us to insinuate ourselves in that 985 00:36:01,839 --> 00:36:02,880 process 986 00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:06,720 is is quite frankly inappropriate and i understand 987 00:36:06,720 --> 00:36:10,079 we're all concerned about the tragic 988 00:36:10,079 --> 00:36:13,520 aspect of this case but 989 00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:15,760 it seems to me that my responsibility to 990 00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:17,040 the community 991 00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:19,839 is to follow the process if if we 992 00:36:19,839 --> 00:36:21,760 disregard the process 993 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:25,359 then suddenly we we are only a few short 994 00:36:25,359 --> 00:36:26,800 steps from 995 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:30,720 um some sort of mob rule the likes of 996 00:36:30,720 --> 00:36:32,400 which the country has seen 997 00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:35,920 far too much of in the last uh year on 998 00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:36,480 both 999 00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:38,079 the extreme political right and the 1000 00:36:38,079 --> 00:36:41,440 extreme political left so so i feel that 1001 00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:44,000 um i would i would like to get more 1002 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:45,680 information on

the beginning of the 1052 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:31,359 meeting 1053 00:38:31,359 --> 00:38:34,320 it was said that um it was the 1054 00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:37,040 opportunity for miss bronkusha jordan to 1055 00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:38,160 come back 1056 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:40,320 based on the terms of her accepting the 1057 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:41,359 contract 1058 00:38:41,359 --> 00:38:44,800 so my bad interpretation but i do think 1059 00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:45,280 it is 1060 00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:47,359 a line of questioning that um we could 1061 00:38:47,359 -->

00:39:25,680 that we didn't have the opportunity to 1081 00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:27,599 ask questions about this important 1082 00:39:27,599 --> 00:39:28,960 contract 1083 00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:34,480 with the coroner especially given the 1084 00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:38,079 recent national events concerning racial 1085 00:39:38,079 --> 00:39:39,680 justice 1086 00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:43,680 i in general no matter what the 1087 00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:46,160 particulars of what the coroner was 1088 00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:48,320 involved in i would have expected to be 1089 00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:51,599 able to ask questions um about how 1090 00:39:51,599 --> 00:39:54,720 the coroner would investigate 1091 00:39:54,720 --> 00:39:59,119 deaths that were um a high profile 1092 00:39:59,119 --> 00:40:03,680 in the public um the agenda item was 1093 00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:07,280 uh about the coroner's contract was 1094 00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:10,560 at the end of the year we were 1095 00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:13,599 backed into a corner at a time when we 1096 00:40:13,599 --> 00:40:15,680 could hardly spend any time asking 1097 00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:16,400 questions 1098 00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:19,040 anymore so i feel like we were put in a 1099 00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:20,240 situation 1100 00:40:20,240 --> 00:40:22,480 which was very different from the 1101 00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:23,599 situation 1102 00:40:23,599 --> 00:40:26,240 um where the police department responded 1103 00:40:26,240 --> 00:40:27,040 after we 1104 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:30,160 were asked 1105 00:40:30,160 --> 00:40:32,480 the public was asking questions about 1106 00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:34,400 how the police department handled racial 1107 00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:35,839 justice issues 1108 00:40:35,839 --> 00:40:38,480 the whole council was allowed to spend 1109 00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:40,400 an extensive amount of time 1110 00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:42,560 interacting with the police department 1111 00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:43,920 and how 1112 00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:46,079 they handle different situations so i 1113 00:40:46,079 --> 00:40:47,119 appreciated 1114 00:40:47,119 --> 00:40:50,319 that effort uh by the police department 1115 00:40:50,319 --> 00:40:53,200 to engage counsel in in their activities 1116 00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:55,359 so we could understand them better 1117 00:40:55,359 --> 00:40:57,920 and i also appreciate now that offer 1118 00:40:57,920 --> 00:40:59,520 from the coroner 1119 00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:02,720 um to have us 1120 00:41:02,720 --> 00:41:05,760 meet with her to understand her 1121 00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:08,720 efforts better but you know i was in the 1122 00:41:08,720 --> 00:41:10,560 situation where 1123 00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:13,440 i thought we would have been able to ask 1124 00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:15,359 questions of the coroner 1125 00:41:15,359 --> 00:41:17,119 um since it does seem to me to be an 1126 00:41:17,119 --> 00:41:19,599 important contract for the city 1127 00:41:19,599 --> 00:41:21,760 thank you i'm sorry i have a question um 1128 00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:25,270 council member 1129 00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:28,319 lim can you hear me yes yeah 1130 00:41:28,319 --> 00:41:29,440 you're saying that you didn't have an 1131 00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:31,599 opportunity i i just don't understand 1132 00:41:31,599 --> 00:41:33,280 that when you can pick up the phone and 1133 00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:34,160 call my office 1134 00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:37,359 if you have a question can i clarify 1135 00:41:37,359 --> 00:41:38,800 that comment because it was all part of 1136 00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:41,200 my letter my letter comment that uh 1137 00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:43,280 it it was the way it got put on the the 1138 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:44,400 agenda 1139 00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:46,079 and and i think the mayor pro tem will 1140 00:41:46,079 --> 00:41:47,599 admit when we talked about the agenda 1141 00:41:47,599 --> 00:41:48,960 item before it went up 1142 00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:50,079 we didn't think there would be anything 1143 00:41:50,079 --> 00:41:52,160 controversial and so so 1144 00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:54,000 it just didn't get put on the agenda 1145 00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:55,599 when it should have it should have been 1146 00:41:55,599 --> 00:41:58,880 put on at a time in a way that there could have been questions and 1147 00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:00,240 i don't think that was the coroner's 1148 00:42:00,240 --> 00:42:01,760 fault i think it was uh 1149 00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:03,119 as i said in my letter there were a 1150 00:42:03,119 --> 00:42:04,319 whole bunch of things that happened but 1151 00:42:04,319 --> 00:42:06,079 now we have an opportunity to ask 1152 00:42:06,079 --> 00:42:06,720 questions 1153 00:42:06,720 --> 00:42:11,829 and go in depth 1154 00:42:11,839 --> 00:42:13,040 i think it's also important to 1155 00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:15,200 understand that um 1156 00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:17,040 you know i am not one of your staffers 1157 00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:19,040 so while i'm happy to have you out to my 1158 00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:20,079 facility to answer 1159 00:42:20,079 --> 00:42:22,160 questions i'm not going to come to every 1160 00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:23,359 council meeting 1161 00:42:23,359

00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:30,560 an arrangement i'm interested in and 1165 00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:32,319 maybe you need to explore options of 1166 00:42:32,319 --> 00:42:33,839 having a different coroner or your own 1167 00:42:33,839 --> 00:42:35,280 coroner's office 1168 00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:36,720 if that's something that you're looking 1169 00:42:36,720 --> 00:42:40,470 for 1170 00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:47,109 councilmember zazerski thank 1171 00:42:47,119 --> 00:42:50,079 yes i just re i appreciate um the 1172 00:42:50,079 --> 00:42:50,880 coroner's 1173 00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:54,560 efforts now to invite us ask questions 1174 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:57,520 okay okay yeah i do want to thank um 1175 00:42:57,520 --> 00:43:00,240 miss brown cuccio jordan um 1176 00:43:00,240 --> 00:43:02,960 uh being here tonight and answering the 1177 00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:08,240 questions and also inviting us to her facility um to to discuss this 1178 00:43:08,240 --> 00:43:09,440 more i think that 1179 00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:12,160 i do appreciate that but i do want to 1180 00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:14,160 express that i was very disappointed um 1181 00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:17,280 earlier today um with the statements uh 1182 00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:18,400 that that was made 1183 00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:20,640 where you were really implying they're 1184 00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:22,160 doing broomfield a favor and 1185 00:43:22,160 --> 00:43:23,440 with these services and that really put 1186 00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:25,200 me off a bit um 1187 00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:27,760 so it's leaving a bad taste in my mouth 1188 00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:29,040 i could say that uh 1189 00:43:29,040 --> 00:43:31,040 just for some background the the 1190 00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:34,079 questions by devin that were raised here tonight 1191 00:43:34,079 --> 00:43:37,760 really aren't unusual for for this matter or any matter before 1192 00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:39,119 council i mean 1193 00:43:39,119 --> 00:43:40,640 he typically has questions on everything 1194 00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:42,160 that that we uh 1195 00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:44,560 um that that would be for us and we all 1196 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:47,839 do i mean that's sort of our duty as council members is to ask 1197 00:43:47,839 --> 00:43:51,920 questions um when we have contracts that are you know 1198 00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:54,000 that we're supposed to approve so you 1199 00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:54,480 know 1200 00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:55,680 that shouldn't have been something that 1201 00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:58,400 was offensive to your office 1202 00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:01,040 um and yeah ultimately you know as you 1203 00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:02,640 mentioned we did unanimously 1204 00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:05,839 approve the the contract so um 1205 00:44:05,839 --> 00:44:08,000 there really um wasn't any distrust 1206 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:09,760 there so i'm a little 1207 00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:11,440 concerned with uh the sort of 1208 00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:13,359 antagonistic position that 1209 00:44:13,359 --> 00:44:15,839 i'm sort of hearing here tonight and um 1210 00:44:15,839 --> 00:44:17,760 you know if this level of animosity does 1211 00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:18,720 continue i think it's gonna be 1212 00:44:18,720 --> 00:44:22,000 troublesome for the parties to move forward and we 1213 00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:23,200 may have to explore 1214 00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:27,520 um other options so i'd be open to that 1215 00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:32,069 you know if it has to go to that level 1216 00:44:32,079 --> 00:44:35,680 so you know 1217 00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:37,119 so there's no other comment so i'm going 1218 00:44:37,119 --> 00:44:38,480 to try to summarize where i think we're 1219 00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:38,720 at 1220 00:44:38,720 --> 00:44:40,400 and see if i can get work councils 1221 00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:41,760 headed um 1222 00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:44,079 the uh and councilmember shaft you know 1223 00:44:44,079 --> 00:44:45,200 and as i've said 1224 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:47,920 and i and i said to uh miss broncia 1225 00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:48,880 jordan 1226 00:44:48,880 --> 00:44:50,319 that you have the right to ask the 1227 00:44:50,319 --> 00:44:51,760 questions and i'm not trying to stop you 1228 00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:53,200 from asking the questions tonight she 1229 00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:57,839 offered a forum uh that i thought might be more 1230 00:44:57,839 --> 00:44:59,520 you know more meaningful if we would 1231 00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:01,280 meet with her and you know in her 1232 00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:02,960 corner's office to talk about 1233 00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:05,040 talk talk about that that doesn't change 1234 00:45:05,040 --> 00:45:06,079 the fact 1235 00:45:06,079 --> 00:45:09,680 of the the fact that we as a council 1236 00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:13,520 should discuss continue with 120 days 1237 00:45:13,520 --> 00:45:15,040 the continuation i mean i'm not taking 1238 00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:16,400 that off the table what i think we need 1239 00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:17,760 to understand what she does and how she 1240 00:45:17,760 --> 00:45:18,319 doesn't 1241 00:45:18,319 --> 00:45:20,160 does she want to continue as 1242 00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:22,079 councilmember jasersky brought up 1243 00:45:22,079 --> 00:45:23,359 uh you know i don't think we're gonna 1244 00:45:23,359 --> 00:45:24,560 get all those answers tonight but i 1245 00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:26,560 think the really good way to start 1246 00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:28,800 would be for council to to do a site 1247 00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:29,839 visit 1248 00:45:29,839 --> 00:45:33,359 to the coroner's office and understand

00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:40,960 quite a few of us didn't fully 1253 00:45:40,960 --> 00:45:42,560 understand how important these services 1254 00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:42,960 are 1255 00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:44,800 and how important they need to be done 1256 00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:47,280 and and i'm going to repeat what i said 1257 00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:49,839 in my my letter and that in my six

1483 00:53:57,440 --> 00:53:59,040 what the tip of the iceberg and 1484 00:53:59,040 --> 00:54:00,720 what we're all feeling but pain is 1485 00:54:00,720 --> 00:54:02,240 something that we're all

witnessed 1492 00:54:12,720 --> 00:54:14,480 the police killings and the attack in 1493 00:54:14,480 --> 00:54:16,160 our democracy on sacred ground 1494 00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:18,240 perhaps broomfield can coalesce around a 1495 00:54:18,240 --> 00:54:19,760 deep-seated wound 1496 00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:21,359 we could all see with our own eyes 1497 00:54:21,359 --> 00:54:22,800 through the eyes of what it must feel 1498 00:54:22,800 --> 00:54:24,160 like to not be white 1499 00:54:24,160 --> 00:54:25,839 because our whiteness has been a numbing 1500 00:54:25,839 --> 00:54:28,160 agent from feeling what our bipod 1501 00:54:28,160 --> 00:54:29,359 population 1502 00:54:29,359 --> 00:54:31,599 feels every day a good friend of mine 1503 00:54:31,599 --> 00:54:33,280 who wanted to speak at the solidarity 1504 00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:34,079 march 1505 00:54:34,079 --> 00:54:35,839 last year told me that her 15 year old 1506 00:54:35,839 --> 00:54:37,599 black son saw what was happening last 1507 00:54:37,599 --> 00:54:39,119 week on tv and 1508 00:54:39,119 --> 00:54:40,480 he said he was too afraid to leave the 1509 00:54:40,480 --> 00:54:42,160 house for fear he may be killed by 1510 00:54:42,160 --> 00:54:44,559 someone who felt emboldened by 1511 00:54:44,559 --> 00:54:46,640 the insurrection but this isn't the 1512 00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:48,480 first time he's felt this 1513 00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:49,680 so we have to think about what this 1514 00:54:49,680 --> 00:54:51,200 means for our broomfield bi-pop 1515 00:54:51,200 --> 00:54:52,000 neighbors 1516 00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:53,920 and this isn't blame and shame but i do 1517 00:54:53,920 --> 00:54:55,200 think it's important to name 1518 00:54:55,200 --> 00:54:58,000 exactly what we witnessed as a christian 1519 00:54:58,000 --> 00:54:59,839 it broke me to see a cross 1520 00:54:59,839 --> 00:55:02,559 being erected alongside a noose a white 1521 00:55:02,559 --> 00:55:04,480 supremacist that wore a shirt that says 1522 00:55:04,480 --> 00:55:05,760 jesus saves 1523 00:55:05,760 --> 00:55:07,920 it broke me further to see anti-semitic 1524 00:55:07,920 --> 00:55:10,160 t-shirts that read camp auschwitz 1525 00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:12,319 and on the back staff another one that 1526 00:55:12,319 --> 00:55:13,760 said six nwe 1527 00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:14,960 which means that when hitler and the 1528 00:55:14,960 --> 00:55:17,040 nazis killed millions of jews 1529 00:55:17,040 --> 00:55:19,520 six million wasn't enough they flew an 1530 00:55:19,520 --> 00:55:20,960 enemy flag at the capitol 1531 00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:22,960 they desecrated monuments and urinated 1532 00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:24,160 on carpets 1533 00:55:24,160 --> 00:55:26,480 there were bombs at both the dnc and

husband both 1537 00:55:32,160 --> 00:55:33,040 voted for bush 1538 00:55:33,040 --> 00:55:35,280 and has broken his conservative heart to 1539 00:55:35,280 --> 00:55:36,240 hear 1540 00:55:36,240 -->

time for questions 1944 01:13:08,320 --> 01:13:09,840 one thing is specifically what's 1945 01:13:09,840 --> 01:13:12,239 happening around epi trends 1946 01:13:12,239 --> 01:13:15,199 and we're still monitoring the effect of 1947 01:13:15,199 --> 01:13:17,040 the holidays 1948 01:13:17,040 --> 01:13:20,800 we're seeing uh we're moving past 1949 01:13:20,800 --> 01:13:24,159 the um christmas holidays to stop 1950 01:13:24,159 --> 01:13:26,159 now start to understand the impact of 1951 01:13:26,159 --> 01:13:27,440 the 1952 01:13:27,440 --> 01:13:29,760 new year's holidays right now we're just 1953 01:13:29,760 --> 01:13:31,440 seeing slight increases 1954 01:13:31,440 --> 01:13:34,560 built in colorado and broomfield 1955 01:13:34,560 --> 01:13:37,520 we'll have to see if that's a trend that 1956 01:13:37,520 --> 01:13:39,679 continues or plateaus 1957 01:13:39,679 --> 01:13:42,159 and moves down so we'll continue to 1958 01:13:42,159 --> 01:13:44,400 monitor that 1959 01:13:44,400 --> 01:13:46,920 other good news is that uh 1960 01:13:46,920 --> 01:13:49,679 hospitalizations continue to decline 1961 01:13:49,679 --> 01:13:52,960 um in the states uh region 1962 01:13:52,960 --> 01:13:56,239 uh and in broomfield um although the 1963 01:13:56,239 --> 01:13:59,520 pace of the decrease slowed uh 1964 01:13:59,520 --> 01:14:01,199 specifically over the 1965 01:14:01,199 --> 01:14:04,560 uh holiday season so we'll see if that 1966 01:14:04,560 --> 01:14:08,080 decrease um begins to 1967 01:14:08,080 --> 01:14:11,280 uh pick up again everybody has heard 1968 01:14:11,280 --> 01:14:11,840 about 1969 01:14:11,840 --> 01:14:15,920 the variant that is out there 1970 01:14:15,920 --> 01:14:19,600 the state lab continues to 1971 01:14:19,600 --> 01:14:22,800 test for that variant they've identified 1972 01:14:22,800 --> 01:14:27,040 type cases in colorado 1973 01:14:27,040 --> 01:14:29,679 at this point uh those cases were not 1974 01:14:29,679 --> 01:14:30,480 traveling 1975 01:14:30,480 --> 01:14:33,280 so we suspect that there may be 1976 01:14:33,280 --> 01:14:35,120 additional cases that could be 1977 01:14:35,120 --> 01:14:36,640 identified 1978 01:14:36,640 --> 01:14:39,920 um in colorado um so we'll continue to 1979 01:14:39,920 --> 01:14:43,040 monitor that the reason the variant is 1980 01:14:43,040 --> 01:14:45,640 important is because its 1981 01:14:45,640 --> 01:14:47,600 transmissibility is much more 1982 01:14:47,600 --> 01:14:50,320 higher than the the current some of the 1983 01:14:50,320 --> 01:14:53,440 current strains of covid19 1984 01:14:53,440 --> 01:14:56,159 and if it starts to become one of the 1985 01:14:56,159 --> 01:14:56,800 dominant 1986 01:14:56,800 --> 01:14:59,760 variants we could see transmissibility 1987 01:14:59,760 --> 01:15:00,480 increase 1988 01:15:00,480 --> 01:15:03,199 in the state and in the region we spent 1989 01:15:03,199 --> 01:15:03,679 a 1990 01:15:03,679 --> 01:15:06,239 fair amount of our time discussing 1991 01:15:06,239 --> 01:15:07,760 vaccine 1992 01:15:07,760 --> 01:15:11,120 distribution yesterday and 1993 01:15:11,120 --> 01:15:14,400 really walking through with the recent 1994 01:15:14,400 --> 01:15:15,040 changes 1995 01:15:15,040 --> 01:15:18,800 from the um federal government and 1996 01:15:18,800 --> 01:15:22,560 the state government the impact 1997 01:15:22,560 --> 01:15:25,679 to broomfield one thing that we did 1998 01:15:25,679 --> 01:15:29,679 clarify is how the vaccine is actually 1999 01:15:29,679 --> 01:15:33,920 allocated and distributed so each week 2000 01:15:33,920 --> 01:15:35,920 the colorado department of public health 2001 01:15:35,920 --> 01:15:37,679 and environment 2002 01:15:37,679 --> 01:15:40,080 is alerted to what their vaccine 2003 01:15:40,080 --> 01:15:41,679 allocation 2004 01:15:41,679 --> 01:15:45,760 will be and just to provide some context 2005 01:15:45,760 --> 01:15:47,520 is 2006 01:15:47,520 --> 01:15:50,080 in order for us to vaccinate everybody 2007 01:15:50,080 --> 01:15:50,800 in 2008 01:15:50,800 --> 01:15:55,120 phase 1a and phase 1b we're looking at 2009 01:15:55,120 --> 01:16:00,320 a total of 1 million 219 people that 2010 01:16:00,320 --> 01:16:02,480 need to be vaccinated 2011 01:16:02,480 --> 01:16:06,000 and currently the state as of january 2012 01:16:06,000 --> 01:16:10,080 7th had received 282 2013 01:16:10,080 --> 01:16:14,880 000 uh doses um and 217 000 of those had 2014 01:16:14,880 --> 01:16:15,920 been 2015 01:16:15,920 --> 01:16:18,960 um administered to get shots in people's 2016 01:16:18,960 --> 01:16:20,320 arms 2017 01:16:20,320 --> 01:16:23,679 the other thing is over 50 percent of 2018 01:16:23,679 --> 01:16:27,040 vaccines are being distributed to 2019 01:16:27,040 --> 01:16:30,719 hospitals to vaccinate the 70 plus 2020 01:16:30,719 --> 01:16:33,360 population 2021 01:16:33,360 --> 01:16:36,800 10

to realize is 2031 01:16:58,239 --> 01:17:01,600 broomfield has moved fairly quickly 2032 01:17:01,600 --> 01:17:02,480 through 2033 01:17:02,480 --> 01:17:05,440 uh vaccinating uh our phase one 2034 01:17:05,440 --> 01:17:06,640 providers those 2035 01:17:06,640 --> 01:17:09,679 in the hospital system and also our 2036 01:17:09,679 --> 01:17:11,440 first responders 2037 01:17:11,440 -->

01:17:30,640 we're going through that process of 2044 01:17:30,640 --> 01:17:32,320 making sure those individuals are 2045 01:17:32,320 --> 01:17:34,960 getting vaccinated 2046 01:17:34,960 --> 01:17:36,719 another thing that is a success for 2047 01:17:36,719 --> 01:17:38,320 broomfield is 2048 01:17:38,320 --> 01:17:41,360 about 10 of our brimfield residents 70 2049 01:17:41,360 -->

counties that 2053 01:17:48,000 --> 01:17:51,840 have moved quickly into that 70 plus 2054 01:17:51,840 --> 01:17:55,679 age group and then lastly 2055 01:17:55,679 --> 01:17:58,000 we have two long-term care facilities 2056 01:17:58,000 --> 01:18:00,719 that have started been vaccinated 2057 01:18:00,719 --> 01:18:03,040 started that started on monday and we 2058 01:18:03,040 -->

is we fully acknowledge 2062 01:18:12,480 --> 01:18:15,520 the challenges with 2063 01:18:15,520 --> 01:18:19,280 the 70 plus population and receiving the 2064 01:18:19,280 --> 01:18:21,199 vaccine 2065 01:18:21,199 --> 01:18:23,920 part of this is that the hospital 2066 01:18:23,920 --> 01:18:24,800 systems are 2067 01:18:24,800 --> 01:18:28,159 developing their systems for 2068 01:18:28,159 --> 01:18:32,560 people to receive the vaccine 2069 01:18:32,560 --> 01:18:34,800 that means that somebody that has had a 2070 01:18:34,800 --> 01:18:38,400 touch with a hospital system 2071 01:18:38,400 --> 01:18:41,679 potentially they should receive um 2072 01:18:41,679 --> 01:18:44,400 information from that hospital system of 2073 01:18:44,400 --> 01:18:45,199 how to 2074 01:18:45,199 --> 01:18:48,640 um get an appointment the second thing 2075 01:18:48,640 --> 01:18:52,000 is they're setting up online portals 2076 01:18:52,000 --> 01:18:54,400 with all of that we know that our 70 2077 01:18:54,400 --> 01:18:55,360 plus uh 2078 01:18:55,360 --> 01:18:57,679 population will not be vaccinated in the 2079 01:18:57,679 --> 01:18:59,040 next week or the next 2080 01:18:59,040 --> 01:19:01,600 two weeks so we just ask for patients as 2081 01:19:01,600 --> 01:19:03,840 we go through this process 2082 01:19:03,840 --> 01:19:05,679 and then finally ending with some of the 2083 01:19:05,679 --> 01:19:06,960 policy updates 2084 01:19:06,960 --> 01:19:10,560 we continue to partner with atoms12 2085 01:19:10,560 --> 01:19:14,640 on their plans for potentially returning 2086 01:19:14,640 --> 01:19:14,960 to 2087 01:19:14,960 --> 01:19:17,120 in-person learning they plan to make a 2088 01:19:17,120 --> 01:19:18,800 decision by 2089 01:19:18,800 --> 01:19:22,000 january 25th right now they're 2090 01:19:22,000 --> 01:19:23,360 considering 2091 01:19:23,360 --> 01:19:25,760 elementary school in person and 2092 01:19:25,760 --> 01:19:27,760 potentially hybrid for middle school and 2093 01:19:27,760 --> 01:19:29,440 high school 2094 01:19:29,440 --> 01:19:31,280 boulder valley school district has 2095 01:19:31,280 --> 01:19:32,800 started in person learning for 2096 01:19:32,800 --> 01:19:34,080 elementary 2097 01:19:34,080 --> 01:19:36,000 and middle school and high school have 2098 01:19:36,000 --> 01:19:37,840 started hybrid 2099 01:19:37,840 --> 01:19:40,400 uh we've been in uh conversations with 2100 01:19:40,400 --> 01:19:42,320 the local districts that are making 2101 01:19:42,320 --> 01:19:44,080 decisions regarding 2102 01:19:44,080 --> 01:19:47,440 the season b chassis sports 2103 01:19:47,440 --> 01:19:49,360 obviously there's some concerns about 2104 01:19:49,360 --> 01:19:51,520 specific sporting activities such as 2105 01:19:51,520 --> 01:19:52,239 wrestling 2106 01:19:52,239 --> 01:19:54,480 where you can't wear a mask so we're 2107 01:19:54,480 --> 01:19:56,159 trying to problem solve with those 2108 01:19:56,159 --> 01:19:58,080 districts since it's ultimately their 2109 01:19:58,080 --> 01:20:00,000 decisions on some of the ways they can 2110 01:20:00,000 --> 01:20:01,280 mitigate that 2111 01:20:01,280 --> 01:20:05,520 such as testing wrestlers potentially 2112 01:20:05,520 --> 01:20:08,639 holding wrestlers out 2113 01:20:08,639 --> 01:20:11,760 from school from a period of time after 2114 01:20:11,760 --> 01:20:13,520 meets 2115 01:20:13,520 --> 01:20:16,880 or even the possibility of looking to 2116 01:20:16,880 --> 01:20:17,760 delay 2117 01:20:17,760 --> 01:20:21,600 the season until we get more vaccines 2118 01:20:21,600 --> 01:20:23,120 out there but ultimately it's the 2119 01:20:23,120 --> 01:20:23,840 decision 2120 01:20:23,840 --> 01:20:26,960 of the districts uh the governor's 2121 01:20:26,960 --> 01:20:27,520 office 2122 01:20:27,520 --> 01:20:30,719 and chasseum and then lastly 2123 01:20:30,719 --> 01:20:32,960 great success with our back to business 2124 01:20:32,960 --> 01:20:34,719 certification program 2125 01:20:34,719 --> 01:20:37,600 22 businesses have been certified by our 2126 01:20:37,600 --> 01:20:38,960 administrative committee 2127 01:20:38,960 -->

2154 01:21:58,719 --> 01:22:01,520 discussion if a mobile vaccination kind 2155 01:22:01,520 --> 01:22:02,719 of 2156 01:22:02,719 --> 01:22:05,440 process would would work i think our 2157 01:22:05,440 --> 01:22:06,719 seniors are 2158 01:22:06,719 --> 01:22:09,120 a little confused they have to kind of 2159 01:22:09,120 --> 01:22:11,199 you know go to their provider's website 2160 01:22:11,199 --> 01:22:13,920 you know check hour by hour sometimes i 2161 01:22:13,920 --> 01:22:16,400 got a letter from a particular senior 2162 01:22:16,400 --> 01:22:18,639 and then some of the seniors are calling 2163 01:22:18,639 --> 01:22:20,080 fish and 2164 01:22:20,080 --> 01:22:22,400 you know they're just there's a there's 2165 01:22:22,400 --> 01:22:23,760 a lot of confusion if they're not 2166 01:22:23,760 --> 01:22:24,719 technologically 2167 01:22:24,719 --> 01:22:28,400 savvy um there's there's that too 2168 01:22:28,400 --> 01:22:31,600 so i don't know um maybe you could talk 2169 01:22:31,600 --> 01:22:36,800 a little bit about that or like how you plan on 2170 01:22:36,800 --> 01:22:39,920 maybe the process to vaccinate the 2171 01:22:39,920 --> 01:22:41,760 remaining seniors 2172 01:22:41,760 --> 01:22:45,440 that would be most helpful thank you 2173 01:22:45,440 --> 01:22:47,760 councilmember tessier and i i appreciate 2174 01:22:47,760 --> 01:22:49,199 the uh that question 2175 01:22:49,199 --> 01:22:53,440 um a couple things to keep in mind as 2176 01:22:53,440 --> 01:22:56,320 far as the specific allocations that are 2177 01:22:56,320 --> 01:22:59,520 coming to brimfield public health um you 2178 01:22:59,520 --> 01:23:00,400 know we 2179 01:23:00,400 --> 01:23:02,960 right now have a very limited supply so 2180 01:23:02,960 --> 01:23:04,320 as we start to think about 2181 01:23:04,320 --> 01:23:07,760 mobile vaccination clinics we want to be 2182 01:23:07,760 --> 01:23:08,320 very 2183 01:23:08,320 --> 01:23:11,199 thoughtful and targeted in the approach 2184 01:23:11,199 --> 01:23:13,199 not to create a 2185 01:23:13,199 --> 01:23:15,760 expectation out in the community and 2186 01:23:15,760 --> 01:23:17,520 you're seeing some of this in other 2187 01:23:17,520 --> 01:23:19,679 states where they're doing 2188 01:23:19,679 --> 01:23:22,719 large or even mid-sized 2189 01:23:22,719 --> 01:23:24,800 drive-through clinics and people waiting 2190 01:23:24,800 --> 01:23:26,239 in line for 2191 01:23:26,239 --> 01:23:28,320 a full day and then ultimately not being 2192 01:23:28,320 --> 01:23:30,800 able to get their vaccine 2193 01:23:30,800 --> 01:23:34,080 so what we've been doing with my 2194 01:23:34,080 --> 01:23:35,440 leadership team is 2195 01:23:35,440 --> 01:23:38,639 really focusing our energy and efforts 2196 01:23:38,639 --> 01:23:42,159 now that we understand fully the state's 2197 01:23:42,159 --> 01:23:43,199 plan 2198 01:23:43,199 --> 01:23:46,320 of how do we equitably get the vaccine 2199 01:23:46,320 --> 01:23:47,199 out 2200 01:23:47,199 --> 01:23:51,280 to brimfield residents that are 70 plus 2201 01:23:51,280 --> 01:23:54,719 and what that involves is 2202 01:23:54,719 --> 01:23:57,440 the partnership that we have with the 2203 01:23:57,440 --> 01:23:59,440 hospital system so we've spent the 2204 01:23:59,440 --> 01:24:02,000 day today on the phone with all of our 2205 01:24:02,000 --> 01:24:04,000 hospital systems to figure out 2206 01:24:04,000 --> 01:24:05,520 specifically what are they doing to 2207 01:24:05,520 --> 01:24:07,280 reach our broomfield residents as part 2208 01:24:07,280 --> 01:24:09,360 of their catchment areas 2209 01:24:09,360 --> 01:24:12,159 uh the second thing that we're doing is 2210 01:24:12,159 --> 01:24:12,880 um 2211 01:24:12,880 --> 01:24:14,800 reaching out to our culturally qualified 2212 01:24:14,800 --> 01:24:15,920 health centers 2213 01:24:15,920 --> 01:24:18,719 and better understanding their plans and 2214 01:24:18,719 --> 01:24:20,080 then the third thing we are doing 2215 01:24:20,080 --> 01:24:22,719 is we're specifically identifying those 2216 01:24:22,719 --> 01:24:23,760 areas where 2217 01:24:23,760 --> 01:24:25,920 we do believe there could potentially be 2218 01:24:25,920 --> 01:24:27,600 gaps um 2219 01:24:27,600 --> 01:24:29,360 and not being able to get the vaccine 2220 01:24:29,360 --> 01:24:31,199 and how can we 2221 01:24:31,199 --> 01:24:34,080 directly administer that and get the 2222 01:24:34,080 --> 01:24:36,080 vaccine out to those individuals and 2223 01:24:36,080 --> 01:24:38,480 groups and we've started that outreach 2224 01:24:38,480 --> 01:24:42,960 already our team identifying specific 2225 01:24:42,960 --> 01:24:46,000 neighborhoods and some of the 2226 01:24:46,000 --> 01:24:48,560 ambassadors within those neighborhoods 2227 01:24:48,560 --> 01:24:50,960 to make sure it can happen 2228 01:24:50,960 --> 01:24:54,320 as we get that flushed out we plan 2229 01:24:54,320 --> 01:24:57,360 to execute on it 2230 01:24:57,360 --> 01:25:00,639 um and then the next step of that 2231 01:25:00,639 --> 01:25:04,159 is we're already doing two things one is 2232 01:25:04,159 --> 01:25:07,280 planning for this immediate 70 plus but 2233 01:25:07,280 --> 01:25:08,480 also planning for 2234 01:25:08,480 --> 01:25:10,719 where do we need to go in the future so 2235 01:25:10,719 --> 01:25:12,000 as we talk about 2236 01:25:12,000 --> 01:25:14,560 uh moving further on down the list we're 2237 01:25:14,560 --> 01:25:16,000 going to get to 65 2238 01:25:16,000 --> 01:25:18,560 and and then we're going to get down to 2239 01:25:18,560 --> 01:25:20,400 our phase 2 group 2240 01:25:20,400 --> 01:25:22,800 and we want to be really well positioned 2241 01:25:22,800 --> 01:25:24,880 to be able to execute on all of that 2242 01:25:24,880 --> 01:25:28,639 and i shared yesterday our strategy 2243 01:25:28,639 --> 01:25:31,199 is to make sure as many of our providers 2244 01:25:31,199 --> 01:25:32,400 in broomfield are 2245 01:25:32,400 --> 01:25:35,120 enrolled as providers because that's the 2246 01:25:35,120 --> 01:25:37,199 natural network for people to go and get 2247 01:25:37,199 --> 01:25:39,760 vaccines either their pharmacy 2248 01:25:39,760 --> 01:25:42,560 or their provider if they can't do that 2249 01:25:42,560 --> 01:25:44,400 that's the gap-filling role that public 2250 01:25:44,400 --> 01:25:45,600 health will step in 2251 01:25:45,600 --> 01:25:48,159 and fulfill some more information to 2252 01:25:48,159 --> 01:25:50,239 come on that as our plans get flushed 2253 01:25:50,239 --> 01:25:51,760 out but the outreach is happening right 2254 01:25:51,760 --> 01:25:53,199 now 2255 01:25:53,199 --> 01:25:55,760 thank you so much and just again 2256 01:25:55,760 --> 01:25:57,920 gratitude much gratitude to you and your 2257 01:25:57,920 --> 01:25:58,639 team 2258 01:25:58,639 --> 01:26:02,159 you have been working just phenomenal 2259 01:26:02,159 --> 01:26:02,880 amounts 2260 01:26:02,880 --> 01:26:05,760 and um we appreciate you and i just want 2261 01:26:05,760 --> 01:26:07,679 to make

01:34:48,960 which are just a basis for municipal 2514 01:34:48,960 --> 01:34:50,719 decision making 2515 01:34:50,719 --> 01:34:52,719 at the december study session it was 2516 01:34:52,719 --> 01:34:54,400 mentioned that marijuana 2517 01:34:54,400 --> 01:34:56,639 is very regulated because of the number 2518 01:34:56,639 --> 01:34:59,199 of pages of regulations 2519 01:34:59,199 --> 01:35:02,880 the quantity of pages does not indicate 2520 01:35:02,880 --> 01:35:03,920 the level of 2521 01:35:03,920 --> 01:35:06,960 quality of the regulations just 2522 01:35:06,960 --> 01:35:09,280 one example is that the state limits 2523 01:35:09,280 --> 01:35:10,560 three shapes 2524 01:35:10,560 --> 01:35:13,760 of marijuana edibles but there are many 2525 01:35:13,760 --> 01:35:15,280 other shapes that appear 2526 01:35:15,280 --> 01:35:19,440 like candy to children also the science 2527 01:35:19,440 --> 01:35:23,560 related to the effect of increased thc 2528

difficulty in getting in is much higher 2607 01:38:24,560 --> 01:38:26,000 than that of a liquor store and 2608 01:38:26,000 --> 01:38:29,040 the dangerous aspects of alcohol are 2609 01:38:29,040 -->

--> 02:12:05,199 in converting the on-street 3257 02:12:05,199 --> 02:12:07,119 parking the parallel parking along 3258 02:12:07,119 --> 02:12:09,599 destination way to angled parking 3259 02:12:09,599 --> 02:12:12,639 that's resulted in a net increase 3260 02:12:12,639 --> 02:12:16,480 of approximately 10 spaces 3261 02:12:16,480 --> 02:12:18,560 a planning and zoning commission hearing 3262 02:12:18,560 --> 02:12:20,400 on november 23rd 3263 02:12:20,400 --> 02:12:22,239 commissioners had concerns over a few 3264 02:12:22,239 --> 02:12:24,639 design elements within the park 3265 02:12:24,639 --> 02:12:26,719 their first concern was that the dog 3266 02:12:26,719 --> 02:12:29,199 park was unnecessary given the proximity 3267 02:12:29,199 --> 02:12:31,440 to sheps field 3268 02:12:31,440 --> 02:12:33,679 as mentioned there was a meeting last 3269 02:12:33,679 --> 02:12:34,719 year with 3270 02:12:34,719 --> 02:12:37,920 community members and the neighbors 3271 02:12:37,920 --> 02:12:40,400 raised concerns about the existing dog 3272 02:12:40,400 --> 02:12:41,280 waste problem 3273 02:12:41,280 --> 02:12:43,920 and the impacts of the addition of 3274 02:12:43,920 --> 02:12:45,840 steadfast residents 3275 02:12:45,840 --> 02:12:48,639 and how that would impact the current 3276 02:12:48,639 --> 02:12:50,079 dog park 3277 02:12:50,079 --> 02:12:52,239 you know arista is a very dog-friendly 3278 02:12:52,239 --> 02:12:54,719 community and so we anticipate that the 3279 02:12:54,719 --> 02:12:56,800 number of dog owners will continue to 3280 02:12:56,800 --> 02:12:57,360 increase 3281 02:12:57,360 --> 02:13:00,159 not only with the addition of steadfast 3282 02:13:00,159 --> 02:13:02,239 departments but as future developments 3283 02:13:02,239 --> 02:13:04,079 within arista 3284 02:13:04,079 --> 02:13:07,040 begin to fill in as well and we believe 3285 02:13:07,040 --> 02:13:07,840 that this 3286 02:13:07,840 --> 02:13:10,079 additional dog area will not only be an 3287 02:13:10,079 --> 02:13:12,320 asset to the existing 3288 02:13:12,320 --> 02:13:14,639 residents but future residents as well 3289 02:13:14,639 --> 02:13:15,360 and 3290 02:13:15,360 --> 02:13:18,239 will hope hopefully help to reduce any 3291 02:13:18,239 --> 02:13:19,199 um 3292 02:13:19,199 --> 02:13:22,639 future dog related complaints 3293 02:13:22,639 --> 02:13:25,119 and for that reason we thought it was 3294 02:13:25,119 --> 02:13:26,159 important to keep it 3295 02:13:26,159 --> 02:13:31,360 in the overall design next slide please 3296 02:13:31,360 --> 02:13:34,480 in addition the second concerns um 3297 02:13:34,480 --> 02:13:37,440 from the uh planning and zoning 3298 02:13:37,440 --> 02:13:38,639 commission was centered around the 3299 02:13:38,639 --> 02:13:40,320 usefulness and maintenance of the 3300 02:13:40,320 --> 02:13:42,719 internal crusher fines trail 3301 02:13:42,719 --> 02:13:44,719 what's in front of you right now is a 3302 02:13:44,719 --> 02:13:46,560 comparison between 3303 02:13:46,560 --> 02:13:48,960 the um design that we brought in front 3304 02:13:48,960 --> 02:13:50,400 of the p and z 3305 02:13:50,400 --> 02:13:53,440 um and then the updated design 3306 02:13:53,440 --> 02:13:57,199 in front of you tonight um 3307 02:13:57,199 --> 02:13:59,679 they the commissioners um you know felt 3308 02:13:59,679 --> 02:14:01,119 that the walkway through the middle of 3309 02:14:01,119 --> 02:14:03,440 the turf limited the usefulness 3310 02:14:03,440 --> 02:14:05,679 of the grass area and so in response to 3311 02:14:05,679 --> 02:14:06,880 that and those 3312 02:14:06,880 --> 02:14:08,800 concerns we've removed the portion of 3313 02:14:08,800 --> 02:14:11,040 trail along the south of the council 3314 02:14:11,040 --> 02:14:11,760 ring 3315 02:14:11,760 --> 02:14:15,280 to provide that un interrupted turf area 3316 02:14:15,280 --> 02:14:17,360 and the turf also has been expanded to 3317 02:14:17,360 --> 02:14:18,480 the sidewalks to 3318 02:14:18,480 --> 02:14:21,440 greater create access to the park and 3319 02:14:21,440 --> 02:14:24,800 eliminate the need for the trail 3320 02:14:24,800 --> 02:14:26,639 finally all remaining trails were 3321 02:14:26,639 --> 02:14:28,320 converted to concrete 3322 02:14:28,320 --> 02:14:31,199 for ease of maintenance and usability um 3323 02:14:31,199 --> 02:14:33,280 all year long 3324 02:14:33,280 --> 02:14:35,040 lastly the commissioners felt that the 3325 02:14:35,040 --> 02:14:37,040 park lacked shade trees 3326 02:14:37,040 --> 02:14:39,440 and greenery so the park design has been 3327 02:14:39,440 --> 02:14:41,440 revised to address this concern with 3328 02:14:41,440 --> 02:14:42,079 addition 3329 02:14:42,079 --> 02:14:45,360 of more deciduous shade trees and 3330 02:14:45,360 --> 02:14:47,920 evergreen trees the shade trees have 3331 02:14:47,920 --> 02:14:49,040 also been located 3332 02:14:49,040 --> 02:14:51,199 around the edge of the turf providing 3333 02:14:51,199 --> 02:14:52,159 opportunity for 3334 02:14:52,159 --> 02:14:55,040 shade while providing or excuse me while 3335 02:14:55,040 --> 02:14:56,000 maintaining 3336 02:14:56,000 --> 02:14:59,040 the open turf for flexible use and ease 3337 02:14:59,040 --> 02:15:00,719 of maintenance 3338 02:15:00,719 --> 02:15:02,960 some of the ornamental trees were 3339 02:15:02,960 --> 02:15:03,760 switched to 3340 02:15:03,760 --> 02:15:05,520 evergreen trees to provide that 3341 02:15:05,520 --> 02:15:06,800 year-round color 3342 02:15:06,800 --> 02:15:10,480 and greenery and the expanded tarf area 3343 02:15:10,480 --> 02:15:13,280 has re resulted in less native seed 3344 02:15:13,280 --> 02:15:13,920 areas 3345 02:15:13,920 --> 02:15:18,320 and strategically placed planting beds 3346 02:15:18,320 --> 02:15:21,440 the planning and zoning commission chose 3347 02:15:21,440 --> 02:15:22,960 to make a recommendation of 3348 02:15:22,960 --> 02:15:25,280 denial rather than approval with 3349 02:15:25,280 --> 02:15:26,800 conditions 3350 02:15:26,800 --> 02:15:30,079 because they wanted to put teeth 3351 02:15:30,079 --> 02:15:31,760 as they stated it behind their 3352 02:15:31,760 --> 02:15:33,760 conditions they asked that we work with 3353 02:15:33,760 --> 02:15:35,840 staff to address their

02:28:27,840 but they wanted to see it so i'm in 3694 02:28:27,840 --> 02:28:29,600 agreement i hope it gets used as well 3695 02:28:29,600 --> 02:28:31,760 because i wasn't in favor of this change 3696 02:28:31,760 --> 02:28:33,439 well and and and i don't know if our 3697 02:28:33,439 --> 02:28:35,280 staff can answer that um 3698 02:28:35,280 --> 02:28:37,280 but usually the reason that we don't 3699 02:28:37,280 --> 02:28:38,640 have trails go through the middle of a 3700 02:28:38,640 --> 02:28:40,000 large turf area is because 3701 02:28:40,000 --> 02:28:41,680 of fields and the ability for our 3702 02:28:41,680 --> 02:28:43,680 recreation staff to utilize those fields 3703 02:28:43,680 --> 02:28:44,160 so 3704 02:28:44,160 --> 02:28:45,920 it's it's surprising to me that planning 3705 02:28:45,920 --> 02:28:47,840 and zoning our staff would request 3706 02:28:47,840 --> 02:28:49,680 uh trails not to intersect that large 3707 02:28:49,680 --> 02:28:51,359 turf area and then not be able to 3708 02:28:51,359 --> 02:29:00,550 program those areas 3709 02:29:00,560 --> 02:29:02,319 i think that was a comment so i'll go to 3710 02:29:02,319 --> 02:29:04,399 councilmember groom 3711 02:29:04,399 --> 02:29:06,560 thank you i'm sorry for the delay mayor 3712 02:29:06,560 --> 02:29:08,560 um i just had a couple comments 3713 02:29:08,560 --> 02:29:11,760 a compliment on the design i really like 3714 02:29:11,760 --> 02:29:12,319 it 3715 02:29:12,319 --> 02:29:15,040 i have spent a significant amount of 3716 02:29:15,040 --> 02:29:16,960 time in that area walking my dogs with 3717 02:29:16,960 --> 02:29:17,600 my son 3718 02:29:17,600 --> 02:29:20,640 um since he lived up there for a while 3719 02:29:20,640 --> 02:29:23,359 and an extra dog park is definitely 3720 02:29:23,359 --> 02:29:23,920 needed 3721 02:29:23,920 --> 02:29:26,960 uh there's there's a lot of um 3722 02:29:26,960 --> 02:29:29,439 pet friendly residents and a high 3723 02:29:29,439 --> 02:29:32,000 population high density in that area so 3724 02:29:32,000 --> 02:29:34,640 i am very excited to see even the two 3725 02:29:34,640 --> 02:29:36,000 separate dog parks 3726 02:29:36,000 --> 02:29:38,319 between the small dog and and the larger 3727 02:29:38,319 --> 02:29:39,120 dog 3728 02:29:39,120 --> 02:29:42,080 um and the only upgrade or comment i 3729 02:29:42,080 -->

questions on how the program works 3852 02:35:35,120 --> 02:35:37,040 and why this was a priority for the ac 3853 02:35:37,040 --> 02:35:39,040 sustainability committee 3854 02:35:39,040 --> 02:35:42,230 uh next slice please 3855 02:35:42,240 --> 02:35:44,720 so the ultimate purpose of the program 3856 02:35:44,720 --> 02:35:45,680 is to reduce 3857 02:35:45,680 --> 02:35:47,920 broomfield's overall municipal energy 3858 02:35:47,920 --> 02:35:48,800 load 3859 02:35:48,800 --> 02:35:51,920 and by by extension our utility bills 3860 02:35:51,920 --> 02:35:52,319 right 3861 02:35:52,319 --> 02:35:55,359 so by auditing and upgrading systems 3862 02:35:55,359 --> 02:35:59,120 and uh boom field buildings 3863 02:35:59,120 --> 02:36:02,000 the investment grade audit will reveal 3864 02:36:02,000 --> 02:36:03,520 upgrades and retrofits 3865 02:36:03,520 --> 02:36:05,280 that will have impact on our energy 3866 02:36:05,280 --> 02:36:07,200 loads so at this point 3867 02:36:07,200 --> 02:36:10,000 we have looked at broomfield buildings 3868 02:36:10,000 --> 02:36:12,080 with public works and our facility staff 3869 02:36:12,080 --> 02:36:15,120 and identified 10 potential candidates 3870 02:36:15,120 --> 02:36:19,840 that are ripe for this for this audit 3871 02:36:19,840 --> 02:36:22,479 this is based on age and energy use 3872 02:36:22,479 --> 02:36:24,479 intensity as a function of how big the 3873 02:36:24,479 --> 02:36:26,240 buildings actually are 3874 02:36:26,240 --> 02:36:29,439 so why did we choose epc 3875 02:36:29,439 --> 02:36:31,200 first because brimfield has committed to 3876 02:36:31,200 --> 02:36:32,560 lead by example 3877 02:36:32,560 --> 02:36:35,040 in the sustainability space and what 3878 02:36:35,040 --> 02:36:36,000 better way to showcase 3879 02:36:36,000 --> 02:36:37,680 leadership than doing high visibility 3880 02:36:37,680 --> 02:36:39,920 projects in public buildings 3881 02:36:39,920 --> 02:36:41,680 second the program will make substantial 3882 02:36:41,680 --> 02:36:43,840 progress towards our adopted greenhouse 3883 02:36:43,840 --> 02:36:45,439 gas reduction goals 3884 02:36:45,439 --> 02:36:48,080 as a municipal government just to remind 3885 02:36:48,080 --> 02:36:50,000 everyone our first goal year our first 3886 02:36:50,000 --> 02:36:51,920 benchmark is 2025 3887 02:36:51,920 --> 02:36:54,880 we have committed to a 30 reduction from 3888 02:36:54,880 --> 02:36:57,120 our 2017 baseline 3889 02:36:57,120 --> 02:36:59,520 and third long term the program is 3890 02:36:59,520 --> 02:37:01,040 revenue positive 3891 02:37:01,040 --> 02:37:03,280 so the graphic on this slide uh 3892 02:37:03,280 --> 02:37:07,439 illustrates this point on the left we have 3893 02:37:07,439 --> 02:37:10,080 broomfield's full energy load and 3894 02:37:10,080 --> 02:37:12,319 associated costs 3895 02:37:12,319 --> 02:37:14,240 the audit then helps identify projects 3896 02:37:14,240 --> 02:37:16,240 that will lead to savings 3897 02:37:16,240 --> 02:37:18,640 those savings are then used to finance 3898 02:37:18,640 --> 02:37:20,000 the debt 3899 02:37:20,000 --> 02:37:22,960 once the finance period is over we are 3900 02:37:22,960 --> 02:37:25,359 actually able to keep the savings right 3901 02:37:25,359 --> 02:37:27,040 so i do want to point out that we are 3902 02:37:27,040 --> 02:37:29,120 under no obligation to use the finance 3903 02:37:29,120 --> 02:37:30,240 mechanism 3904 02:37:30,240 --> 02:37:32,000 we can simply procure the audit and fund 3905 02:37:32,000 --> 02:37:33,359 the upgrades to regular 3906 02:37:33,359 --> 02:37:35,040 through our regular capital improvement 3907 02:37:35,040 --> 02:37:36,399 programs 3908 02:37:36,399 --> 02:37:38,640 uh we can go as fast as slow as we want 3909 02:37:38,640 --> 02:37:40,800 with this with the recommended upgrades 3910 02:37:40,800 --> 02:37:43,600 obviously the higher impact uh upgrades 3911 02:37:43,600 --> 02:37:44,960 will be prioritized 3912 02:37:44,960 --> 02:37:46,160 and all of this is a council's 3913 02:37:46,160 --> 02:37:48,560 discretion and then finally the cost of 3914 02:37:48,560 --> 02:37:50,560 the audit can be rolled into the finance 3915 02:37:50,560 --> 02:37:51,280 package 3916 02:37:51,280 --> 02:37:52,720 so the upfront outlay that we're 3917 02:37:52,720 --> 02:37:55,040 committing to tonight 3918 02:37:55,040 --> 02:37:58,389 can also be offset 3919 02:37:58,399 --> 02:38:01,680 uh next slide please so 3920 02:38:01,680 --> 02:38:04,080 uh this is just a timeline slide uh 3921 02:38:04,080 --> 02:38:05,920 currently we're at step one 3922 02:38:05,920 --> 02:38:07,120 where we would make the client 3923 02:38:07,120 --> 02:38:09,359 commitment through the iga proposed in 3924 02:38:09,359 --> 02:38:11,200 front of you with the state 3925 02:38:11,200 --> 02:38:14,479 then we procure a qualified esco 3926 02:38:14,479 --> 02:38:16,960 or energy services company through a 3927 02:38:16,960 --> 02:38:20,240 competitive rfp process 3928 02:38:20,240 --> 02:38:23,040 and they help us through the audit 3929 02:38:23,040 --> 02:38:25,760 identify projects and savings 3930 02:38:25,760 --> 02:38:28,240 and then there's the implementation 3931 02:38:28,240 --> 02:38:29,760 phase 3932 02:38:29,760 --> 02:38:32,000 again these are all account council's 3933 02:38:32,000 --> 02:38:33,200 discretion 3934 02:38:33,200 --> 02:38:35,439 so ongoing throughout the lifetime of 3935 02:38:35,439 --> 02:38:36,960 the project is measurement 3936 02:38:36,960 --> 02:38:38,880 and verification of the savings this is 3937 02:38:38,880 --> 02:38:40,160 actually key to the success of the 3938 02:38:40,160 --> 02:38:41,120 program 3939 02:38:41,120 --> 02:38:43,359 since the esco has to guarantee us the 3940 02:38:43,359 --> 02:38:45,520 savings for at least three years 3941 02:38:45,520 --> 02:38:47,520 they are bound to ensure the projects 3942 02:38:47,520 --> 02:38:49,520 accomplish their intended savings 3943 02:38:49,520 --> 02:38:51,040 this also helps with reporting and 3944 02:38:51,040 --> 02:38:53,439 tracking our municipal goals 3945 02:38:53,439 --> 02:38:55,600 so staff's recommendation and conclusion 3946 02:38:55,600 --> 02:38:57,280 is that we proceed with this program and 3947 02:38:57,280 --> 02:38:59,040 sign the iga with the state 3948 02:38:59,040 --> 02:39:02,240 to begin the process we're also 3949 02:39:02,240 --> 02:39:03,600 available for any questions and i 3950 02:39:03,600 --> 02:39:06,319 believe some members of aces are also 3951 02:39:06,319 --> 02:39:11,910 on the line to answer some questions 3952 02:39:11,920 --> 02:39:15,280 okay we'll go to uh public comments next 3953 02:39:15,280 --> 02:39:20,080 um i lost that screen uh if there's uh 3954 02:39:20,080 --> 02:39:21,680 if there's anybody that wants to make 3955 02:39:21,680 --> 02:39:26,720 public comments uh please press star three and state 3956

02:39:32,479 --> 02:39:35,520 that's on the queue so we will uh 3960 02:39:35,520 --> 02:39:37,120 we'll move then to questions from 3961 02:39:37,120 --> 02:39:39,359 council members are there comments or 3962 02:39:39,359 --> 02:39:41,920 questions from city council 3963 02:39:41,920 --> 02:39:43,120 please raise your hand and you'll be 3964 02:39:43,120 --> 02:39:47,830 identified 3965 02:39:47,840 --> 02:39:51,439 councilmember groom hi thank you 3966 02:39:51,439 --> 02:39:53,760 um great presentation i'll make it super 3967 02:39:53,760 --> 02:39:54,560 quick 3968 02:39:54,560 --> 02:39:57,359 um one of the things that i wanted to do 3969 02:39:57,359 --> 02:39:59,280 is ask a question and make a statement 3970 02:39:59,280 --> 02:40:00,240 about this 3971 02:40:00,240 --> 02:40:04,640 um i know the state has 3972 02:40:04,640 --> 02:40:07,920 i believe it's called ee3 3973 02:40:07,920 --> 02:40:11,680 or e3 eee they hired 3974 02:40:11,680 --> 02:40:14,240 to do a lot of the road mapping is that 3975 02:40:14,240 --> 02:40:15,840 something that we should 3976 02:40:15,840 --> 02:40:19,040 also tap into as would we be looking at 3977 02:40:19,040 --> 02:40:19,520 them 3978 02:40:19,520 --> 02:40:22,399 as our road mapping consultant or is 3979 02:40:22,399 --> 02:40:23,760 this something completely different than 3980 02:40:23,760 --> 02:40:25,920 what that e3 consulting does for the 3981 02:40:25,920 --> 02:40:27,279 state 3982 02:40:27,279 --> 02:40:31,279 that's that's a good question uh so 3983 02:40:31,279 --> 02:40:34,080 this is in relationship to the the state 3984 02:40:34,080 --> 02:40:35,520 road map 3985 02:40:35,520 --> 02:40:39,439 document right so we want to 3986 02:40:39,439 --> 02:40:43,120 develop internally uh 3987 02:40:43,120 --> 02:40:44,399 unless you guys want to give us more 3988 02:40:44,399 --> 02:40:46,160 money uh 3989 02:40:46,160 --> 02:40:49,439 a greenhouse gas uh road map 3990 02:40:49,439 --> 02:40:52,000 with specific uh recommendations 3991 02:40:52,000 --> 02:40:54,160 specific policy recommendations 3992 02:40:54,160 --> 02:40:55,920 with the return on environment and 3993 02:40:55,920 --> 02:40:57,279 return on investment 3994 02:40:57,279 --> 02:41:00,319 vetted uh in that in that document and 3995 02:41:00,319 --> 02:41:02,240 that was something that we had uh 3996 02:41:02,240 --> 02:41:02,960 envisioned 3997 02:41:02,960 --> 02:41:05,200 as developing internally with our new 3998 02:41:05,200 --> 02:41:07,760 sustainability manager camille pollan 3999 02:41:07,760 --> 02:41:10,880 um this is a 4000 02:41:10,880 --> 02:41:13,040 uh so this energy performance 4001 02:41:13,040 --> 02:41:14,319 contracting 4002 02:41:14,319 --> 02:41:17,359 proposal uh and and resolution 4003 02:41:17,359 --> 02:41:19,439 is sort of the lowest of the low hanging 4004 02:41:19,439 --> 02:41:20,800 fruit uh 4005 02:41:20,800 --> 02:41:23,920 it's the easiest win that we can get 4006 02:41:23,920 --> 02:41:27,439 it offsets our greenhouse gas uh 4007 02:41:27,439 --> 02:41:29,920 footprint and it's also revenue positive 4008 02:41:29,920 --> 02:41:30,960 in the long term 4009 02:41:30,960 --> 02:41:34,640 so this is kind of the no-brainer in the full 4010 02:41:34,640 --> 02:41:37,520 spectrum of the menu of options we do 4011 02:41:37,520 --> 02:41:38,479 have 4012 02:41:38,479 --> 02:41:41,040 um the idea going forward with our 4013 02:41:41,040 --> 02:41:42,160 greenhouse gas 4014 02:41:42,160 --> 02:41:44,800 roadmap and plan is that we would have a 4015 02:41:44,800 --> 02:41:45,840 document 4016 02:41:45,840 --> 02:41:48,800 um prioritizing short-term and long-term 4017 02:41:48,800 --> 02:41:49,680 goals 4018 02:41:49,680 --> 02:41:52,399 for uh city and county of broomfield to 4019 02:41:52,399 --> 02:41:53,520 pursue 4020 02:41:53,520 --> 02:41:56,479 um and again i think this was something 4021 02:41:56,479 --> 02:41:58,479 that we had intended to do 4022 02:41:58,479 --> 02:42:01,840 internally uh but but again like i said 4023 02:42:01,840 --> 02:42:02,560 if you want 4024 02:42:02,560 --> 02:42:06,880 uh to fund to fund a consultant we would 4025 02:42:06,880 --> 02:42:08,000 not turn down the money 4026 02:42:08,000 --> 02:42:11,840 there's two more no i was i was hoping 4027 02:42:11,840 --> 02:42:14,960 to get synergy and pay less 4028 02:42:14,960 --> 02:42:17,359 but um no that was just a question thank 4029 02:42:17,359 --> 02:42:19,040 you mr valdez 4030 02:42:19,040 --> 02:42:21,680 for the answer and um just a comment i 4031 02:42:21,680 --> 02:42:24,830 would have to say back in 4032 02:42:24,840 --> 02:42:28,479 2016 i believe we paid for a similar 4033 02:42:28,479 --> 02:42:29,200 study for 4034 02:42:29,200 --> 02:42:32,640 housing and i'm not quite sure if we got 4035 02:42:32,640 --> 02:42:33,520 the full 4036 02:42:33,520 --> 02:42:36,399 we implemented the full value of that 4037 02:42:36,399 --> 02:42:37,279 housing 4038 02:42:37,279 --> 02:42:39,840 um the gap study that we did and i and i 4039 02:42:39,840 --> 02:42:41,279 want to make sure 4040 02:42:41,279 --> 02:42:44,160 that when we pay this 95 000 for this 4041 02:42:44,160 --> 02:42:46,160 program that it is for 4042 02:42:46,160 --> 02:42:47,920 like you were saying those multiple 4043 02:42:47,920 --> 02:42:49,359 years that strategic 4044 02:42:49,359 --> 02:42:52,000 plan um that will guide us all the way 4045 02:42:52,000 --> 02:42:54,720 through because i believe what happened and i'm sure 4046 02:42:54,720 --> 02:42:56,319 council member tessier can correct me 4047 02:42:56,319 --> 02:42:56,800 but 4048 02:42:56,800 --> 02:42:59,200 things move so quickly after we got done 4049 02:42:59,200 --> 02:43:00,000 with that 4050 02:43:00,000 --> 02:43:02,640 um study that it i wouldn't say it 4051 02:43:02,640 --> 02:43:04,720 became obsolete but we just didn't get 4052 02:43:04,720 --> 02:43:06,800 the meat for it that we paid 4053 02:43:06,800 --> 02:43:08,960 so i want to make sure that this one we 4054 02:43:08,960 --> 02:43:11,359 do have that strategic plan coming out 4055 02:43:11,359 --> 02:43:12,080 of it 4056 02:43:12,080 --> 02:43:14,319 that multi-year strategic plan so that's 4057 02:43:14,319 --> 02:43:17,680 just a comment and something i'll be watching out for 4058 02:43:17,680 --> 02:43:19,680 thank you mr valdez for the question or 4059 02:43:19,680 --> 02:43:20,800 the answer and 4060 02:43:20,800 --> 02:43:23,120 that's all i had mayor councilmember law 4061

to say i 4073 02:44:00,399 --> 02:44:01,200 um i 4074 02:44:01,200 --> 02:44:04,399 really appreciate this process the way 4075 02:44:04,399 --> 02:44:04,720 it's 4076 02:44:04,720 --> 02:44:07,680 outlined because it is it there are 4077 02:44:07,680 --> 02:44:08,560 discrete 4078 02:44:08,560 --> 02:44:11,680 ete not eet discrete 4079 02:44:11,680 --> 02:44:15,439 steps separate steps um and at each 4080 02:44:15,439 --> 02:44:18,000 step the public has hasn't will have i 4081 02:44:18,000 --> 02:44:18,800 assume 4082 02:44:18,800 --> 02:44:22,319 an opportunity to comment on the 4083 02:44:22,319 --> 02:44:29,359 uh the the implementation or the next step basically how what comes 4084 02:44:29,359 --> 02:44:31,120 out of it and how we move along 4085 02:44:31,120 --> 02:44:35,840 one of the one of my very large 4086 02:44:35,840 --> 02:44:39,279 fears with this entire program 4087 02:44:39,279 --> 02:44:42,479 has always been that we have never 4088 02:44:42,479 --> 02:44:44,640 done we've never gotten an estimate of 4089 02:44:44,640 --> 02:44:45,760 how much this is 4090 02:44:45,760 --> 02:44:48,880 ultimately going to cost taxpayers 4091 02:44:48,880 --> 02:44:51,920 um and i uh i 4092 02:44:51,920 --> 02:44:53,990 am of the opinion that um 4093 02:44:53,990 --> 02:44:56,479 [Music] 4094 02:44:56,479 --> 02:44:59,520 i i'm i'm unwilling to commit 4095 02:44:59,520 --> 02:45:01,840 a lot of taxpayer money any taxpayer 4096 02:45:01,840 --> 02:45:05,120 money without an idea of how much it is 4097 02:45:05,120 --> 02:45:06,880 along along the way and i think that 4098 02:45:06,880 --> 02:45:08,720 this step-by-step framework 4099 02:45:08,720 --> 02:45:10,880 this timeline that you all have laid out 4100 02:45:10,880 --> 02:45:12,880 is very very helpful 4101 02:45:12,880 --> 02:45:16,240 in in going going through that so um 4102 02:45:16,240 --> 02:45:18,000 even though i did not receive what i 4103 02:45:18,000 --> 02:45:19,920 asked for when we originally adopted the 4104 02:45:19,920 --> 02:45:21,120 goals some time ago 4105 02:45:21,120 --> 02:45:23,600 or a year ago or whatever it was uh i 4106 02:45:23,600 --> 02:45:29,520 didn't i never did receive any kind of a financial estimate 4107 02:45:29,520 --> 02:45:32,720 a ballpark of are we talking millions 4108 02:45:32,720 --> 02:45:34,479 are we talking tens of millions 4109 02:45:34,479 --> 02:45:37,279 are we talking hundreds of millions um 4110 02:45:37,279 --> 02:45:38,880 that 4111 02:45:38,880 --> 02:45:42,000 answer or maybe plural those 4112 02:45:42,000 --> 02:45:45,520 answers are built into this timeline and 4113 02:45:45,520 --> 02:45:47,279 this framework that you put together 4114 02:45:47,279 --> 02:45:53,920 so i very much appreciate that um and i do want to make sure that as as we go 4115 02:45:53,920 --> 02:45:54,640 through this 4116 02:45:54,640 --> 02:45:56,720 that the public has an op we'll have an 4117 02:45:56,720 --> 02:45:58,560 opportunity to comment 4118 02:45:58,560 --> 02:46:02,880 on what could be some very large ticket 4119 02:46:02,880 --> 02:46:05,359 items especially once we once we grab 4120 02:46:05,359 --> 02:46:07,520 that low hanging fruit so 4121 02:46:07,520 --> 02:46:10,880 um i guess i guess that's that's a 4122 02:46:10,880 --> 02:46:11,600 question 4123 02:46:11,600 --> 02:46:15,520 where at what steps 4124 02:46:15,520 --> 02:46:17,600 will decisions be required by city 4125 02:46:17,600 --> 02:46:19,040 council that will come 4126 02:46:19,040 --> 02:46:21,520 um and be available for public comment 4127 02:46:21,520 --> 02:46:23,040 where 4128 02:46:23,040 --> 02:46:25,680 thank you for that so so the audit is 4129 02:46:25,680 --> 02:46:26,399 sort of 4130 02:46:26,399 --> 02:46:29,040 the first step as you can see so we 4131 02:46:29,040 --> 02:46:30,160 would do this 4132 02:46:30,160 --> 02:46:33,439 uh solicitation for the uh energy 4133 02:46:33,439 --> 02:46:34,960 service company 4134 02:46:34,960 --> 02:46:38,240 and then the the audit is really where 4135 02:46:38,240 --> 02:46:40,080 we get to the nuts and bolts 4136 02:46:40,080 --> 02:46:42,640 of what are the recommendations how much 4137 02:46:42,640 --> 02:46:43,760 do they cost 4138 02:46:43,760 --> 02:46:45,680 and what does the financial package look 4139 02:46:45,680 --> 02:46:46,800 like 4140 02:46:46,800 --> 02:46:50,240 um and you know again i'll 4141 02:46:50,240 --> 02:46:53,439 reiterate all the projects uh 4142 02:46:53,439 --> 02:46:56,399 i mean we are not bound by by any 4143 02:46:56,399 --> 02:46:57,600 agreement 4144 02:46:57,600 --> 02:47:01,279 uh to use to do any of the projects to 4145 02:47:01,279 --> 02:47:04,640 use a financing mechanism to do anything 4146 02:47:04,640 --> 02:47:07,359 beyond the audit at this point the audit 4147 02:47:07,359 --> 02:47:09,120 just identifies 4148 02:47:09,120 --> 02:47:11,840 where we where the savings could be 4149 02:47:11,840 --> 02:47:12,960 right and then it's council's 4150 02:47:12,960 --> 02:47:15,040 prerogative and we can also integrate i 4151 02:47:15,040 --> 02:47:17,920 think a public engagement component here 4152 02:47:17,920 --> 02:47:21,840 uh to um look at where those targeted 4153 02:47:21,840 --> 02:47:23,359 investments could be 4154 02:47:23,359 --> 02:47:26,160 and then what the liabilities would look 4155 02:47:26,160 --> 02:47:26,560 like 4156 02:47:26,560 --> 02:47:30,240 for the taxpayer yes i would i would 4157 02:47:30,240 --> 02:47:31,600 appreciate that 4158 02:47:31,600 --> 02:47:34,800 um yes i vote for 4159 02:47:34,800 --> 02:47:37,760 public engagement and public comment as 4160 02:47:37,760 --> 02:47:39,840 we move through this process so 4161

staff have done a 4206 02:49:28,399 --> 02:49:30,160 significant amount of background 4207 02:49:30,160 --> 02:49:31,359 research 4208 02:49:31,359 --> 02:49:33,520 talking to communities who have 4209 02:49:33,520 --> 02:49:34,960 implemented this 4210 02:49:34,960 --> 02:49:37,760 talking to previous state officials who 4211 02:49:37,760 --> 02:49:39,520 have worked with this program 4212

02:49:48,240 council and there was also 4216 02:49:48,240 --> 02:49:51,120 interfacing with other staff in other 4217 02:49:51,120 --> 02:49:52,479 departments 4218 02:49:52,479 --> 02:49:54,960 to make sure that the 10 buildings that 4219 02:49:54,960 --> 02:49:56,800 were being identified 4220 02:49:56,800 --> 02:50:00,399 as most likely to re be you know 4221 02:50:00,399 --> 02:50:04,160 to benefit from the um the program 4222 02:50:04,160 --> 02:50:06,240 were identified clearly so there was a 4223 02:50:06,240 --> 02:50:11,200 lot a lot of background work and i wanted to thank everyone

02:51:33,120 --> 02:51:34,319 over a year ago 4257 02:51:34,319 --> 02:51:37,439 so um i i was not involved in all steps 4258 02:51:37,439 --> 02:51:38,560 that councilmember lim 4259 02:51:38,560 --> 02:51:40,080 was referring to but i very much 4260 02:51:40,080 --> 02:51:41,840 appreciate those efforts and i'm also 4261 02:51:41,840 --> 02:51:42,479 wondering 4262 02:51:42,479 --> 02:51:45,840 if um aaron or you could speak a little 4263 02:51:45,840 --> 02:51:46,479 bit to 4264 02:51:46,479 --> 02:51:49,200 this program as i understood it um at 4265 02:51:49,200 --> 02:51:52,560 the first meeting back in 2019 i think 4266 02:51:52,560 --> 02:51:53,040 it was like 4267 02:51:53,040 --> 02:51:56,160 february 2019 it's actually a 4268 02:51:56,160 --> 02:51:58,720 revenue neutral program or can be a 4269 02:51:58,720 --> 02:52:00,000 revenue neutral program 4270 02:52:00,000 --> 02:52:02,479 where you um some of the changes are 4271 02:52:02,479 --> 02:52:03,040 going to 4272 02:52:03,040 --> 02:52:05,840 the energy offsets are going to uh 4273 02:52:05,840 --> 02:52:06,319 create 4274 02:52:06,319 --> 02:52:08,960 more revenue or additional savings more 4275 02:52:08,960 --> 02:52:11,120 um that can be then used for 4276 02:52:11,120 --> 02:52:12,560 some of the more expensive changes like 4277 02:52:12,560 --> 02:52:16,000 a boiler or something is that 4278 02:52:16,000 --> 02:52:18,319 perhaps andrew could address that yeah 4279 02:52:18,319 --> 02:52:26,830 so could we go to slide two 4280 02:52:26,840 --> 02:52:29,990 uh 4281 02:52:30,000 --> 02:52:32,260 perfect okay so um 4282 02:52:32,260 --> 02:52:33,600 [Music] 4283 02:52:33,600 --> 02:52:37,040 the the so you see the chart on the left 4284 02:52:37,040 --> 02:52:39,120 that bar chart represents essentially 4285 02:52:39,120 --> 02:52:41,200 our total energy load or our total 4286 02:52:41,200 --> 02:52:42,880 energy cost 4287 02:52:42,880 --> 02:52:45,920 the the audit helps identify that kind 4288 02:52:45,920 --> 02:52:46,479 of first 4289 02:52:46,479 --> 02:52:48,880 box on the top there so unidentified 4290 02:52:48,880 --> 02:52:51,359 savings potential 4291 02:52:51,359 --> 02:52:54,319 so so again the audit is the first step 4292 02:52:54,319 --> 02:52:55,120 then we do 4293 02:52:55,120 --> 02:52:58,240 then we agree upon a ultimately this 4294 02:52:58,240 --> 02:52:59,040 program 4295 02:52:59,040 --> 02:53:01,520 uh councilmember anderson is a it's a 4296 02:53:01,520 --> 02:53:02,319 finance 4297 02:53:02,319 --> 02:53:06,000 mechanism and the debt is serviced 4298 02:53:06,000 --> 02:53:09,040 through the savings that are identified 4299 02:53:09,040 --> 02:53:12,479 in the audit so we we determine 4300 02:53:12,479 --> 02:53:16,160 how long that finance period actually is 4301 02:53:16,160 --> 02:53:18,399 some communities do 10 years we can make 4302 02:53:18,399 --> 02:53:20,479 it all the way out to 25 years if we 4303 02:53:20,479 --> 02:53:21,439 want 4304 02:53:21,439 --> 02:53:23,600 and throughout that that finance 4305 02:53:23,600 --> 02:53:25,200 increment those savings 4306 02:53:25,200 --> 02:53:26,800 actually go to service the debt so 4307 02:53:26,800 --> 02:53:28,800 there's no money there's no 4308 02:53:28,800 --> 02:53:31,680 extra money that broomfield spending 4309 02:53:31,680 --> 02:53:33,840 during that finance increment 4310 02:53:33,840 --> 02:53:36,319 at the end when our finance increment 4311 02:53:36,319 --> 02:53:38,000 ends our debt services 4312 02:53:38,000 --> 02:53:41,680 is totally satisfied whatever savings 4313 02:53:41,680 --> 02:53:45,200 that we have those those 4314 02:53:45,200 --> 02:53:47,760 just accrue to broomfield so we just 4315 02:53:47,760 --> 02:53:48,479 keep 4316 02:53:48,479 --> 02:53:51,840 what whatever efficiencies and reduced 4317 02:53:51,840 --> 02:53:53,200 liability that we have 4318 02:53:53,200 --> 02:53:57,279 for our for our uh utility bills 4319 02:53:57,279 --> 02:54:00,319 and and again i'll reiterate the the 4320 02:54:00,319 --> 02:54:01,600 upfront costs 4321 02:54:01,600 --> 02:54:05,520 of uh paying for the audit 4322 02:54:05,520 --> 02:54:08,399 and also actually be rolled into the 4323 02:54:08,399 --> 02:54:09,120 finance 4324 02:54:09,120 --> 02:54:12,160 vehicle for this entire thing and 4325 02:54:12,160 --> 02:54:15,439 you know i i i hope that's clear but 4326 02:54:15,439 --> 02:54:17,760 what we're going to do as we continue to 4327 02:54:17,760 --> 02:54:19,600 engage with the state

--> 02:54:27,920 how this actually impacts broomfield but 4332 02:54:27,920 --> 02:54:29,600 for now for the short term the only 4333 02:54:29,600 --> 02:54:31,920 budgetary impact is the outlay for 4334 02:54:31,920 --> 02:54:35,439 the uh for the audit 4335 02:54:35,439 --> 02:54:37,359 does that uh does that answer your 4336 02:54:37,359 --> 02:54:38,560 question councilmember 4337

02:55:31,840 --> 02:55:32,800 help on this 4361 02:55:32,800 --> 02:55:34,080 one of the other things that's really 4362 02:55:34,080 --> 02:55:37,680 important is that we're only going to 4363 02:55:37,680 --> 02:55:40,800 lose the 95 000 4364 02:55:40,800 --> 02:55:43,840 in the event that they 4365 02:55:43,840 --> 02:55:47,439 identify 95 000 worth of savings and we 4366 02:55:47,439 --> 02:55:49,680 choose not to take it 4367 02:55:49,680 --> 02:55:52,960 um so the initial outlay is the cost of 4368 02:55:52,960 --> 02:55:53,680 the audit 4369 02:55:53,680 --> 02:55:55,600 but the cost of the audit actually gets 4370 02:55:55,600 --> 02:55:57,439 rolled into the cost it gets deducted 4371 02:55:57,439 --> 02:55:59,439 from the costs of the upgrades 4372 02:55:59,439 --> 02:56:02,160 as long as we choose to go forward with 4373 02:56:02,160 --> 02:56:03,680 economic upgrades 4374 02:56:03,680 --> 02:56:06,560 so i think it's important to recognize 4375 02:56:06,560 --> 02:56:07,120 that this 4376 02:56:07,120 --> 02:56:10,399 is is revenue neutral even 4377 02:56:10,399 --> 02:56:13,760 including the 95 000 that we're asking 4378 02:56:13,760 --> 02:56:14,560

like 4580 03:04:28,640 --> 03:04:30,479 individual counseling sessions and 4581 03:04:30,479 --> 03:04:32,800 zoom counseling sessions and kind of 4582 03:04:32,800 --> 03:04:34,319 telehealth work

03:04:41,840 --> 03:04:43,840 things in there that weren't necessarily 4587 03:04:43,840 --> 03:04:46,640 all service related also uh we had to 4588 03:04:46,640 --> 03:04:48,840 make some tough decisions we had 32 4589 03:04:48,840 --> 03:04:51,680 applications that were also requesting 4590 03:04:51,680 --> 03:04:52,560 funds 4591 03:04:52,560 --> 03:04:56,640 and right now imagine 4592 03:04:56,640 --> 03:04:59,760 actually our budget for last year and 4593 03:04:59,760 --> 03:05:00,800 our budget for this year 4594 03:05:00,800 --> 03:05:05,600 increased by about thousand dollars 4595 03:05:05,600 --> 03:05:07,920 about fifty six of that seventy three 4596 03:05:07,920 --> 03:05:09,840 thousand dollars to imagine this year 4597 03:05:09,840 --> 03:05:10,319 and 4598 03:05:10,319 --> 03:05:12,319 uh that represented about an eleven and 4599 03:05:12,319 --> 03:05:14,319 a half percent increase for them 4600 03:05:14,319 --> 03:05:17,200 um it just it really came down to how 4601 03:05:17,200 --> 03:05:18,000 much money we had 4602 03:05:18,000 --> 03:05:20,080 in the pot for all of the services that 4603 03:05:20,080 --> 03:05:22,080 we had applications for 4604 03:05:22,080 --> 03:05:25,200 and also um their their request for 4605 03:05:25,200 --> 03:05:27,600 funds from the year prior doubled 4606 03:05:27,600 --> 03:05:30,240 there was no way that we could increase 4607 03:05:30,240 --> 03:05:32,000 their funds by twice the amount that 4608 03:05:32,000 --> 03:05:34,080 they had asked for that previous year 4609 03:05:34,080 --> 03:05:36,880 um and i would i would have to go back 4610 03:05:36,880 --> 03:05:38,319 to their actual 4611 03:05:38,319 --> 03:05:40,720 um document that that breaks down 4612 03:05:40,720 --> 03:05:42,160 exactly what they're requesting but i 4613 03:05:42,160 --> 03:05:42,479 think 4614 03:05:42,479 --> 03:05:44,880 every service line that they had 4615 03:05:44,880 --> 03:05:46,080 increased 4616 03:05:46,080 --> 03:05:48,880 we we asked them to re um kind of 4617 03:05:48,880 --> 03:05:50,640 resubmit some of their numbers 4618 03:05:50,640 --> 03:05:52,240 there were a couple of discrepancies and 4619 03:05:52,240 --> 03:05:54,160 some of the numbers about number of 4620 03:05:54,160 --> 03:05:55,680 clients that they would be serving 4621 03:05:55,680 --> 03:05:57,359 but when those came back it wasn't too 4622 03:05:57,359 --> 03:06:00,319 far below their original request and so 4623 03:06:00,319 --> 03:06:03,120 you know that's uh the amount of money 4624 03:06:03,120 --> 03:06:04,800 that we give imagine 4625 03:06:04,800 --> 03:06:08,160 in this grant application is is pretty 4626 03:06:08,160 --> 03:06:10,000 small in comparison to what they receive 4627 03:06:10,000 --> 03:06:12,000 from other communities and also from 4628 03:06:12,000 --> 03:06:14,880 their ability to draw down on medicaid 4629 03:06:14,880 --> 03:06:16,800 and those type of things so 4630 03:06:16,800 --> 03:06:18,319 i don't i don't have really a better 4631 03:06:18,319 --> 03:06:20,000 answer for you than 4632 03:06:20,000 --> 03:06:21,520 we really had to figure out and make 4633 03:06:21,520 --> 03:06:23,200 some critical decisions on how we were 4634 03:06:23,200 --> 03:06:25,359 going to divide the 1.5 million between 4635 03:06:25,359 --> 03:06:27,200 32 agencies 4636 03:06:27,200 --> 03:06:29,279 sure and then another question with 4637 03:06:29,279 --> 03:06:30,240 imagine 4638 03:06:30,240 --> 03:06:32,479 um since they serve a lot of different 4639 03:06:32,479 --> 03:06:33,520 communities 4640 03:06:33,520 --> 03:06:37,120 is it prorated um by a percentage of 4641 03:06:37,120 --> 03:06:38,240 clients or 4642 03:06:38,240 --> 03:06:43,680 is it just um kind of a how do they know how much to ask for by 4643 03:06:43,680 --> 03:06:46,080 for each community 4644 03:06:46,080 --> 03:06:48,720 year after year yes and has our 4645 03:06:48,720 --> 03:06:51,040 percentage grown 4646 03:06:51,040 --> 03:06:53,760 um our percentage has increased slightly 4647 03:06:53,760 --> 03:06:56,319 it hasn't grown tremendously with them 4648 03:06:56,319 --> 03:06:58,000 it's based on the number of clients that 4649 03:06:58,000 --> 03:06:59,600 they serve from those communities so 4650 03:06:59,600 --> 03:07:02,720 obviously boulder county is a lot larger than we 4651 03:07:02,720 --> 03:07:04,720 are so a lot more folks from boulder 4652 03:07:04,720 --> 03:07:07,200 county are being served by that 4653 03:07:07,200 --> 03:07:09,600 i would say that it really comes down to 4654 03:07:09,600 --> 03:07:11,279 that kind of per capita right how many 4655 03:07:11,279 --> 03:07:14,000 clients they have for each community um 4656 03:07:14,000 --> 03:07:15,359 and then the different services that 4657 03:07:15,359 --> 03:07:16,160 they offer 4658 03:07:16,160 --> 03:07:19,439 so thank you 4659 03:07:19,439 --> 03:07:21,920 and then um oh sorry i didn't mean to 4660 03:07:21,920 --> 03:07:24,240 cut you off i just need to hurry i know 4661 03:07:24,240 --> 03:07:26,399 my minutes are counting down 4662

03:07:37,840 --> 03:07:39,680 counties but our dollars only go 4669 03:07:39,680 --> 03:07:42,720 towards broomfield residents okay but 4670 03:07:42,720 --> 03:07:44,960 they're located here in

water rights change application 4844 03:16:16,080 --> 03:16:17,680 to the water court 4845 03:16:17,680 --> 03:16:20,640 this this effort is in line with 4846 03:16:20,640 --> 03:16:21,760 promoting 4847 03:16:21,760 --> 03:16:24,880 council's priority related to water and 4848 03:16:24,880 --> 03:16:27,040 specifically or just briefly what we did 4849 03:16:27,040 --> 03:16:29,520 is we filed a change of use application 4850 03:16:29,520 --> 03:16:31,200 for the 150 4851 03:16:31,200 --> 03:16:34,239 franco marshall shares that we own and 4852 03:16:34,239 --> 03:16:35,840 we've acquired those shares over the 4853 03:16:35,840 --> 03:16:40,479 course of about 25 years and most would be familiar with the 4854 03:16:40,479 --> 03:16:42,160 water that's associated with a community 4855 03:16:42,160 --> 03:16:42,960 ditch 4856 03:16:42,960 --> 03:16:46,000 and historically we have used that water 4857 03:16:46,000 --> 03:16:48,000 to maintain pond levels throughout the 4858 03:16:48,000 --> 03:16:49,120 community and 4859 03:16:49,120 --> 03:16:51,200 recent changes in state law have 4860 03:16:51,200 --> 03:16:53,279 precluded us from being able to continue 4861 03:16:53,279 --> 03:16:54,319 to do that 4862 03:16:54,319 --> 03:16:56,640 so that prompted us to go ahead and file 4863 03:16:56,640 --> 03:16:57,359 for 4864 03:16:57,359 --> 03:16:59,279 a change of use because these water 4865 03:16:59,279 --> 03:17:01,600 shares were historically used for 4866 03:17:01,600 --> 03:17:04,800 primarily for irrigation purposes 4867 03:17:04,800 --> 03:17:06,960 as i indicated in that email i listed 4868 03:17:06,960 --> 03:17:08,160 all the uses 4869 03:17:08,160 --> 03:17:10,399 some of those include commercial 4870 03:17:10,399 --> 03:17:12,319 industrial residential domestic 4871 03:17:12,319 --> 03:17:14,239 as well as the pond level maintenance 4872 03:17:14,239 --> 03:17:15,920 that we've historically been using 4873 03:17:15,920 --> 03:17:17,200 but since we were going through the 4874 03:17:17,200 --> 03:17:18,880 process we just wanted to make sure that 4875 03:17:18,880 --> 03:17:20,239 we included 4876 03:17:20,239 --> 03:17:23,359 all of those types of uses in the change 4877 03:17:23,359 --> 03:17:26,000 of use application 4878 03:17:26,000 --> 03:17:28,080 the the proceedings themselves will 4879 03:17:28,080 --> 03:17:30,399 probably take about 4880 03:17:30,399 --> 03:17:32,239 upwards of several years to complete i 4881 03:17:32,239 --> 03:17:33,680 think on the outside 4882 03:17:33,680 --> 03:17:35,680 um time frame probably up to upwards of 4883 03:17:35,680 --> 03:17:36,800 two years 4884 03:17:36,800 --> 03:17:39,600 and because of the nature of that that 4885 03:17:39,600 --> 03:17:40,319 process 4886 03:17:40,319 --> 03:17:41,600 a lot of it will just depend on the 4887 03:17:41,600 --> 03:17:43,920 number of opposers that we get 4888 03:17:43,920 --> 03:17:47,120 so i just wanted to you know

um pledge seemed quite 4987 03:21:22,479 --> 03:21:24,479 fitting because broomfield as we all 4988 03:21:24,479 --> 03:21:26,239 know has already established a goal of 4989 03:21:26,239 -->

03:21:42,720 --> 03:21:45,840 and we received um 4996 03:21:45,840 --> 03:21:48,239 also an update from david allen that 4997 03:21:48,239 --> 03:21:49,920 regarding the water that one of the main 4998 03:21:49,920 --> 03:21:51,359 components of broomfield's 4999 03:21:51,359 --> 03:21:53,520 2020 water efficiency plan includes the 5000 03:21:53,520 --> 03:21:54,960 continued use and expansion

is striving for 5004 03:22:01,520 --> 03:22:02,640 water conservation 5005 03:22:02,640 --> 03:22:06,000 and that is uh in places where we don't 5006 03:22:06,000 --> 03:22:07,680 have large amounts of water it's just 5007 03:22:07,680 --> 03:22:10,080 that support and that um commitment to 5008 03:22:10,080 --> 03:22:13,120 what we can do is all um all that is 5009 03:22:13,120 --> 03:22:15,200 really required 5010 03:22:15,200 --> 03:22:19,200 um and the um uh 5011 03:22:19,200 --> 03:22:20,640 councilmember lim did we talk to the 5012 03:22:20,640 --> 03:22:22,239 aces committee 5013

could model this 5019 03:22:33,439 --> 03:22:35,279 approach similar to boulder county who 5020 03:22:35,279 --> 03:22:36,239 adopted a 5021 03:22:36,239 --> 03:22:37,600 proclamation in support of

03:26:02,160 --> 03:26:04,800 setbacks broomfield regulations state 5115 03:26:04,800 --> 03:26:08,960 in title 16 that no residential lots 5116 03:26:08,960 --> 03:26:11,359 in any subdivision shall be platted any 5117 03:26:11,359 --> 03:26:13,680 closer than 200 feet 5118 03:26:13,680 --> 03:26:16,880 from an oil and gas facility 5119 03:26:16,880 --> 03:26:19,120 and no public or private school building 5120 03:26:19,120 --> 03:26:21,520 and any subdivisions shall be located 5121 03:26:21,520 --> 03:26:22,479 any closer than 5122 03:26:22,479 --> 03:26:25,520 500 feet so as 5123 03:26:25,520 --> 03:26:28,880 we probably recall in may of 20 5124 03:26:28,880 --> 03:26:34,239 when we passed ordinance number 21 2123 5125 03:26:34,239 --> 03:26:36,720 in the use by special review it we said 5126 03:26:36,720 --> 03:26:39,120 that no oil and gas location containing 5127 03:26:39,120 --> 03:26:41,120 an oil and gas well 5128 03:26:41,120 --> 03:26:43,840 uh shall be located any closer than 2000 5129 03:26:43,840 --> 03:26:46,239 feet from the nearest parcel lot line 5130 03:26:46,239 --> 03:26:49,600 under certain uses so 5131 03:26:49,600 --> 03:26:53,040 um i'm asking for staff 5132 03:26:53,040 --> 03:26:58,000 to bring cons right draft the ordinance 5133 03:26:58,000 --> 03:27:00,479 with hopefully these the scientific 5134 03:27:00,479 --> 03:27:01,600 basis 5135 03:27:01,600 --> 03:27:03,359 um in our original ordinance for the 5136 03:27:03,359 --> 03:27:06,399 setbacks we cited the cdphe study 5137 03:27:06,399 --> 03:27:09,760 we cited our own health impacts um 5138 03:27:09,760 --> 03:27:11,920 and then i would also propose that we 5139 03:27:11,920 --> 03:27:13,439 might want to 5140 03:27:13,439 --> 03:27:15,920 excuse me discuss the reverse setback 5141 03:27:15,920 --> 03:27:18,479 regulations in a tiered approach 5142 03:27:18,479 --> 03:27:21,520 so we might have tiers for a large scale 5143 03:27:21,520 --> 03:27:24,479 site under development in production a 5144 03:27:24,479 --> 03:27:25,439 different tier 5145 03:27:25,439 --> 03:27:27,840 for a single producing well and a 5146 03:27:27,840 --> 03:27:28,720 different tier 5147 03:27:28,720 --> 03:27:30,960 for plug and abandoned wells with 5148 03:27:30,960 --> 03:27:32,800 reverse setbacks 5149 03:27:32,800 --> 03:27:36,239 so that's some um basic ideas that i 5150 03:27:36,239 --> 03:27:37,600 wanted to put forward 5151 03:27:37,600 --> 03:27:39,760 and if there's any questions please let 5152 03:27:39,760 --> 03:27:42,080 me know 5153 03:27:42,080 --> 03:27:45,359 we'll not proceed with public comments 5154 03:27:45,359 --> 03:27:46,880 if there's anyone from the public that 5155 03:27:46,880 --> 03:27:48,560 would like to speak on this 5156 03:27:48,560 --> 03:27:51,520 issue please state your full name and 5157 03:27:51,520 --> 03:27:53,040 your neighborhood and you you'd have 5158 03:27:53,040 --> 03:27:54,880 three minutes to make your comments 5159 03:27:54,880 --> 03:27:57,920 i don't see anybody in the queue so i'll 5160 03:27:57,920 --> 03:27:59,439 go to council member comments next 5161 03:27:59,439 --> 03:28:03,030 council members 5162 03:28:03,040 --> 03:28:06,800 councilman anderson thank you um 5163 03:28:06,800 --> 03:28:08,800 you know as someone living in anthem 5164 03:28:08,800 --> 03:28:10,319 highlands and in ward 4 5165 03:28:10,319 --> 03:28:12,319 um as part of my constituents with the 5166 03:28:12,319 --> 03:28:14,399 davis sport three six well 5167 03:28:14,399 --> 03:28:16,160 um we've definitely seen that need for 5168 03:28:16,160 --> 03:28:18,080 reverse setbacks and also 5169 03:28:18,080 --> 03:28:21,359 with the um and in the beginning it was 5170 03:28:21,359 --> 03:28:22,319 a concern about you know 5171 03:28:22,319 --> 03:28:23,920 wells are under development but when you 5172 03:28:23,920 --> 03:28:25,680 see these large-scale facilities 5173 03:28:25,680 --> 03:28:27,920 you realize that um those emissions 5174 03:28:27,920 --> 03:28:29,920 we're realizing those emissions continue 5175 03:28:29,920 --> 03:28:32,160 we can continue to see uh spikes with b 5176 03:28:32,160 --> 03:28:36,160 techs and other chemicals and that becomes a very serious concern 5177 03:28:36,160 --> 03:28:38,239 um then we must consider when 5178 03:28:38,239 --> 03:28:39,439 thinking we're going to build next to 5179 03:28:39,439 --> 03:28:41,040 them so i definitely support um 5180 03:28:41,040 --> 03:28:42,720 councilmember lim's 5181 03:28:42,720 --> 03:28:45,359 request for uh ordinance regarding 5182 03:28:45,359 --> 03:28:48,720 reaper setbacks thank you 5183 03:28:48,720 --> 03:28:51,840 catherine reliance thank you mr mayor i 5184 03:28:51,840 --> 03:28:53,279 appreciate the opportunity 5185 03:28:53,279 --> 03:28:56,560 um it it seems to me 5186 03:28:56,560 --> 03:29:01,680 that we have discussed this before 5187 03:29:01,680 --> 03:29:04,000 and sort of where we landed several 5188 03:29:04,000 --> 03:29:04,720 years ago 5189 03:29:04,720 --> 03:29:09,520 if i recall correctly was on 5190 03:29:09,520 --> 03:29:11,520 that there's a fundamental difference 5191 03:29:11,520 --> 03:29:13,279 between 5192 03:29:13,279 --> 03:29:15,760 owning a home living in a home and 5193 03:29:15,760 --> 03:29:16,880 having 5194 03:29:16,880 --> 03:29:19,920 oil and gas development come to you 5195 03:29:19,920 --> 03:29:21,439 versus 5196 03:29:21,439 --> 03:29:24,960 having an oil and gas facility 5197 03:29:24,960 --> 03:29:27,600 um plug and abandon plugged in abandoned 5198 03:29:27,600 --> 03:29:28,560 well 5199 03:29:28,560 --> 03:29:31,760 operated well what have you 5200 03:29:31,760 --> 03:29:35,040 and having uh 5201 03:29:35,040 --> 03:29:38,399 a a home built nearby where the home 5202 03:29:38,399 --> 03:29:42,319 buyer has the opportunity to 5203 03:29:42,319 --> 03:29:46,000 understand the proximity of the facility 5204 03:29:46,000 --> 03:29:49,200 under do their own um investigation and 5205 03:29:49,200 --> 03:29:51,680 education with regard to risks and make 5206 03:29:51,680 --> 03:29:52,560 their own 5207 03:29:52,560 --> 03:29:55,600 edge hopefully educated decision 5208 03:29:55,600 --> 03:29:59,279 and i've actually shown homes as a real 5209 03:29:59,279 --> 03:30:00,880 estate broker not many because i don't 5210 03:30:00,880 --> 03:30:03,040 do much residential 5211 03:30:03,040 --> 03:30:05,359 where where it was part of the 5212 03:30:05,359 --> 03:30:06,800 disclosure documents 5213 03:30:06,800 --> 03:30:09,760 that hey this is within a certain 5214 03:30:09,760 --> 03:30:11,279 distance of 5215 03:30:11,279 --> 03:30:14,880 whatever facility um and and that 5216 03:30:14,880 --> 03:30:16,800 became the basis for starting a 5217 03:30:16,800 --> 03:30:18,560 conversation 5218 03:30:18,560 --> 03:30:25,269 so i um i think that the 5219 03:30:25,279 --> 03:30:28,160 i'm willing to discuss this more i'm not 5220 03:30:28,160 --> 03:30:29,040 willing 5221 03:30:29,040 --> 03:30:30,500 to go straight from 5222 03:30:30,500 --> 03:30:32,239 [Music] 5223 03:30:32,239 --> 03:30:34,960 a section 18 request to an ordinance but 5224 03:30:34,960 --> 03:30:37,040 i am willing to have 5225 03:30:37,040 --> 03:30:40,399 conversations on this issue and and see 5226 03:30:40,399 --> 03:30:43,040 if there are better ways to 5227 03:30:43,040 --> 03:30:44,880 um to work on this because frankly the 5228 03:30:44,880 --> 03:30:47,200 other thing is if we were to put in 5229 03:30:47,200 --> 03:30:50,000 if we were to make identical setbacks 5230 03:30:50,000 --> 03:30:51,439 where the setback 5231 03:30:51,439 --> 03:30:54,560 was 2000 feet for new construction new 5232 03:30:54,560 --> 03:30:56,319 residential construction from 5233 03:30:56,319 --> 03:30:59,600 a um a an existing 5234 03:30:59,600 --> 03:31:01,279 facility or plugged in abandoned well or 5235 03:31:01,279 --> 03:31:03,200 whatever i would think among other 5236 03:31:03,200 --> 03:31:03,680 things 5237 03:31:03,680 --> 03:31:05,439 that up in the northern part of 5238 03:31:05,439 --> 03:31:06,960 broomfield at in the baseline 5239 03:31:06,960 --> 03:31:07,680 development 5240 03:31:07,680 --> 03:31:09,359 i would think that those people would be 5241 03:31:09,359 --> 03:31:11,200 just completely shut down 5242 03:31:11,200 --> 03:31:13,760 and then in in terms of what they what 5243 03:31:13,760 --> 03:31:15,600 their current plans are 5244 03:31:15,600 --> 03:31:19,520 and then we get into a sticky situation 5245 03:31:19,520 --> 03:31:21,760 again this is all conjecture on my part 5246 03:31:21,760 --> 03:31:24,000 having done this now for seven years 5247 03:31:24,000 --> 03:31:25,359 um i would think that we'd get into a 5248 03:31:25,359 --> 03:31:27,359 situation of a discussion 5249 03:31:27,359 --> 03:31:29,200 as to whether or not this becomes a 5250 03:31:29,200 --> 03:31:33,040 taking with some of the entitlements at 5251 03:31:33,040 --> 03:31:35,040 baseline and i'm just using baseline 5252 03:31:35,040 --> 03:31:37,120 as a as an example some of the 5253 03:31:37,120 --> 03:31:38,960 entitlements in place some of them not 5254 03:31:38,960 --> 03:31:41,760 and here we come and we change it at 5255 03:31:41,760 --> 03:31:42,479 this point 5256 03:31:42,479 --> 03:31:46,000 so i think this could get i appreciate 5257 03:31:46,000 --> 03:31:46,880 the intent 5258 03:31:46,880 --> 03:31:49,600 which is to protect health and safety 5259 03:31:49,600 --> 03:31:50,319 absolutely 5260 03:31:50,319 --> 03:31:52,479 appreciate the intent but i think this 5261 03:31:52,479 --> 03:31:54,960 has the potential to blow up and be 5262 03:31:54,960 --> 03:31:58,479 a much stickier situation than 5263 03:31:58,479 --> 03:32:01,920 um anything relatively 5264 03:32:01,920 --> 03:32:05,279 straightforward as to as to what's been discussed so 5265 03:32:05,279 --> 03:32:07,040 i'm absolutely willing to discuss it 5266 03:32:07,040 --> 03:32:08,399 more but i'm 5267 03:32:08,399 --> 03:32:11,600 very much unwilling to go straight to 5268 03:32:11,600 --> 03:32:15,200 ordinance um from here so 5269 03:32:15,200 --> 03:32:17,040 i'd like to honestly what i'd like to do 5270 03:32:17,040 --> 03:32:20,399 is have discussions with all the 5271 03:32:20,399 --> 03:32:22,399 stakeholders in broomfield 5272 03:32:22,399 --> 03:32:24,239 as well as the health and safety people 5273 03:32:24,239 --> 03:32:27,840 gather the scientific rationale for 5274 03:32:27,840 --> 03:32:31,359 a specific setback and see if we can um 5275 03:32:31,359 --> 03:32:36,640 a reverse setback see what sort of a discussion falls out to 5276 03:32:36,640 --> 03:32:37,439 where 5277 03:32:37,439 --> 03:32:40,560 people feel heard people feel valued in 5278 03:32:40,560 --> 03:32:42,399 their current entitlements their current 5279 03:32:42,399 --> 03:32:43,760 situation 5280 03:32:43,760 --> 03:32:47,040 and yet we do our due diligence and our 5281 03:32:47,040 --> 03:32:48,319 complete our responsibility to 5282 03:32:48,319 --> 03:32:50,239 protecting human health and safety i'd 5283 03:32:50,239 --> 03:32:52,000 like to see this be an extended process 5284 03:32:52,000 --> 03:32:53,600 i guess is what i'm saying so 5285 03:32:53,600 --> 03:32:55,600 i hope that makes sense i do appreciate 5286 03:32:55,600 --> 03:32:56,880 council member lim 5287 03:32:56,880 --> 03:32:59,520 bringing this forward um it is a 5288 03:32:59,520 --> 03:33:00,560 discussion that's 5289 03:33:00,560 --> 03:33:02,319 certainly timely so those are my 5290 03:33:02,319 --> 03:33:04,000 comments mr mayor thank you 5291 03:33:04,000 --> 03:33:07,269 councilmember groom 5292 03:33:07,279 --> 03:33:10,800 uh yes thanks mayor um i i do agree 5293 03:33:10,800 --> 03:33:12,880 i'm okay moving this forward into a 5294 03:33:12,880 --> 03:33:15,040 discussion i have a lot of concerns 5295 03:33:15,040 --> 03:33:18,160 associated around the impacts and 5296 03:33:18,160 --> 03:33:22,000 intents i do recall that even since 5297 03:33:22,000 --> 03:33:24,800 we had the concept of reverse setbacks 5298 03:33:24,800 --> 03:33:27,359 we've approved developments 5299 03:33:27,359 --> 03:33:31,359 that have been next to an oil and gas 5300 03:33:31,359 --> 03:33:35,279 facility and an active and expected to 5301 03:33:35,279 --> 03:33:36,479 be abandoned 5302 03:33:36,479 --> 03:33:39,439 so i do think that there is we need to 5303 03:33:39,439 --> 03:33:41,279 really understand and what i would like 5304 03:33:41,279 --> 03:33:42,880 to know in the discussion 5305 03:33:42,880 --> 03:33:44,800 is where we are technically with 5306 03:33:44,800 --> 03:33:46,560 abandoning them plugging 5307 03:33:46,560 --> 03:33:48,960 and i know that we've had the one issue 5308 03:33:48,960 --> 03:33:49,920 in broomfield 5309 03:33:49,920 --> 03:33:53,040 um it was old old 5310 03:33:53,040 --> 03:33:54,960 plug-in and abandoned technology but 5311 03:33:54,960 --> 03:33:57,600 what can we do to enhance that so we can 5312 03:33:57,600 --> 03:33:58,880 still 5313 03:33:58,880 --> 03:34:01,520 develop our lands and then also one 5314 03:34:01,520 --> 03:34:03,279 thing i would be looking at 5315 03:34:03,279 --> 03:34:06,640 from a legal standpoint is 5316 03:34:06,640 --> 03:34:08,399 there's a lot of people that's put a lot 5317 03:34:08,399 --> 03:34:10,960 of money in developing broomfield 5318 03:34:10,960 --> 03:34:13,040 and what would be those implications for 5319 03:34:13,040 --> 03:34:14,000 us if 5320 03:34:14,000 --> 03:34:23,520 we now deem their land undevelopable um anyway and i would also um suggest this be 5321 03:34:23,520 --> 03:34:26,479 more of an executive session discussion 5322 03:34:26,479 --> 03:34:26,960 um 5323 03:34:26,960 --> 03:34:29,760 and then and then move out into a study 5324 03:34:29,760 --> 03:34:34,150 session if we could 5325 03:34:34,160 --> 03:34:35,920 yeah and i'll make a comment on that if 5326 03:34:35,920 --> 03:34:37,520 mayor pro tem does it because there has 5327 03:34:37,520 --> 03:34:40,840 been some discussion on the mayor for 5328 03:34:40,840 --> 03:34:42,880 them 5329 03:34:42,880 --> 03:34:44,720 thank you mayor i'll let you talk about 5330 03:34:44,720 --> 03:34:46,000 that but um 5331 03:34:46,000 --> 03:34:48,640 i just wanted to to say it kind of goes 5332 03:34:48,640 --> 03:34:50,560 in the category of when 5333 03:34:50,560 --> 03:34:53,200 you know we know better we do better and 5334 03:34:53,200 --> 03:34:56,160 the 200-foot setback that is currently 5335 03:34:56,160 --> 03:34:58,319 on the books the hard setback was not 5336 03:34:58,319 --> 03:34:59,840 based on any 5337 03:34:59,840 --> 03:35:02,960 science or health and safety data 5338 03:35:02,960 --> 03:35:05,840 and with regards to developers not being 5339 03:35:05,840 --> 03:35:07,200 able to develop well the 5340 03:35:07,200 --> 03:35:10,560 methane leak in anthem in the anthem 5341 03:35:10,560 --> 03:35:11,200 area 5342 03:35:11,200 --> 03:35:13,920 is preventing a developer from moving 5343 03:35:13,920 --> 03:35:14,479 forward 5344 03:35:14,479 --> 03:35:18,399 because um of its proximity to this 5345 03:35:18,399 --> 03:35:20,479 old plugged and abandoned well that 5346 03:35:20,479 --> 03:35:22,239 keeps leaking 5347 03:35:22,239 --> 03:35:24,239 there's the carlson well that's next to 5348 03:35:24,239 --> 03:35:25,279 the school 5349 03:35:25,279 --> 03:35:28,319 where where you live mayor i mean these 5350 03:35:28,319 --> 03:35:30,319 things inevitably leak 5351 03:35:30,319 --> 03:35:33,200 with time and every time they go to do a 5352 03:35:33,200 --> 03:35:34,080 pna it 5353 03:35:34,080 --> 03:35:36,640 seems like there's remediation needed so 5354 03:35:36,640 --> 03:35:57,300 those volatile vulnerable 5355 03:35:57,310 --> 03:36:04,870 [Music] 5356 03:36:04,880 --> 03:36:08,000 i support moving forward with this uh in 5357 03:36:08,000 --> 03:36:09,120 a study session or 5358 03:36:09,120 --> 03:36:12,239 um other venues executive session but i 5359 03:36:12,239 --> 03:36:13,120 definitely support 5360 03:36:13,120 --> 03:36:16,000 re revisiting this topic yeah let me 5361 03:36:16,000 --> 03:36:17,359 make a couple comments 5362 03:36:17,359 --> 03:36:19,040 in a specific on the executive session 5363 03:36:19,040 --> 03:36:20,640 about what both 5364 03:36:20,640 --> 03:36:22,640 councilmember law evans groom said i'll 5365 03:36:22,640 --> 03:36:24,000 just say from my perspective 5366 03:36:24,000 --> 03:36:25,200 i've been attending the wednesday 5367 03:36:25,200 --> 03:36:26,479 afternoon meetings which i found 5368 03:36:26,479 --> 03:36:27,600 productive 5369 03:36:27,600 --> 03:36:32,800 and the uh the davis 43.6 which as methane lakes is in the middle 5370 03:36:32,800 --> 03:36:33,760 of a development 5371 03:36:33,760 --> 03:36:36,399 and we've been holding up permits uh 5372 03:36:36,399 --> 03:36:37,760 there was a discussion about reverse 5373 03:36:37,760 --> 03:36:39,760 setbacks at one of those meetings 5374 03:36:39,760 --> 03:36:41,760 and i guess i was really pleased to see 5375 03:36:41,760 --> 03:36:43,439 that gene put this forward 5376 03:36:43,439 --> 03:36:45,359 because it because there's an issue 5377 03:36:45,359 --> 03:36:47,359 there uh that needs to be addressed by 5378 03:36:47,359 --> 03:36:48,239 council 5379 03:36:48,239 --> 03:36:50,000 uh and i think it was taken seriously 5380 03:36:50,000 --> 03:36:51,359 enough by um by 5381 03:36:51,359 --> 03:36:53,760 the city staff when uh when gene raised 5382 03:36:53,760 --> 03:36:55,840 it that they're looking into it and they 5383 03:36:55,840 --> 03:36:56,960 want to add this 5384 03:36:56,960 --> 03:37:00,160 to the uh the 26th uh uh executive 5385 03:37:00,160 --> 03:37:01,760 session we're set right now to have a 5386 03:37:01,760 --> 03:37:02,479 five o'clock 5387

5390 03:37:07,439 --> 03:37:08,800 because it is about oil and gas 5391 03:37:08,800 --> 03:37:10,880 regulations and so an answer 5392 03:37:10,880 --> 03:37:12,800 you know so we will have an executive 5393 03:37:12,800 --> 03:37:14,800 session i think out of that executive 5394 03:37:14,800 --> 03:37:15,359 session 5395 03:37:15,359 --> 03:37:16,960 we'll probably have a study session come 5396 03:37:16,960 --> 03:37:18,479 out of that as you know come out of that 5397 03:37:18,479 --> 03:37:19,439 as well that's you know 5398 03:37:19,439 --> 03:37:22,319 that's that's public and so so so my 5399 03:37:22,319 --> 03:37:23,120 comment is 5400 03:37:23,120 --> 03:37:25,840 uh i think it's absolutely necessary to 5401 03:37:25,840 --> 03:37:26,560 move forward 5402 03:37:26,560
