There's some, some longer range of updates that I'm going to make sure council has before we go into the retreat time. 56 00:18:55,000 --> 00:19:05,000 And then to round us out, Larry Davis and his team from both budget and finance world, we'll talk about some of the budget forecasts. 57 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:16,000 And if you won't be a total budget update, but at least want you all to start having that bigger, bigger view of a snapshot of what we're looking at going into the retreat. 58 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:31,000 And then finance, we'll talk about some of the opportunities for our day capacity as we go into the better part of setting the agenda for our, our budget, this year, our long range to fiscal budget. 59 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:35,000 So, I want to turn it over to ACM Ukraine. You go first. 60 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,000 Thank you. That's been the mayor of council. 61 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:45,000 We are here to present the Director Hunter and I want everyone's favorite subject housing. 62 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:56,000 Each of you had housing as a key priority on the campaigns for help, but also as council is a city, not unique to just screens. 63 00:19:56,000 --> 00:20:03,000 This is a very critical and important subject for us. So, we wanted to provide you with some updates today. 64 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:09,000 To kind of by the framework for our housing, when I said it looks like here in the Greensboro. 65 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:17,000 So, there is a free confession to just provide you with an overview of housing, GSO, which is our 10 year, 1000 award-winning strategy. 66 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:24,000 Just a free view on that. We will touch on some of the funding opportunities and funding tool that we have available. 67 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:28,000 As well as the four pillars that really can come on that plan. 68 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:35,000 We're about halfway through the implementation of that. So, we're here enough to take another look at what the few levels beyond that 10 years. 69 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:37,000 So, we're at a really bright time. 70 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:46,000 We'll also talk about some things that are going to horizon and we're talking a little bit on the road to 1000, which is just a small component of our overall city housing strategy. 71 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:49,000 So, would that be said, I'll turn it over to Director. 72 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:51,000 Thank you, ACM Ukraine. 73 00:20:52,000 --> 00:21:01,000 I'll start by saying, none of the work or the statistics that I provide in this presentation happens without my team and the housing neighbor development department. 74 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:04,000 They are very dedicated and very service oriented. 75 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:08,000 So, everything that you see here is a lot of things that they've had their hand in. 76 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:11,000 So, I just want to make sure that I give them that kudos. 77 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:21,000 So, housing DSO, that is a 10 year plan that was put in place in 2020. 78 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:24,000 So, we're at the, we're past the bottom of your mark. 79 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:27,000 So, we've done this only analysis of that document. 80 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:34,000 But, we came up with four primary housing goals based off their community feedback based off of council feedback in other constituents feedback. 81 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:40,000 And that, the four pillars for affordable rental homes, neighborhood reinvestment, access to home ownership, 82 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,000 and supportive housing. 83 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:48,000 All of those go into relation with the priorities that you will all sit in predominantly in safety city, 84 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:56,000 most skilled workforce abundance of animal and housing are the three priorities that they factor into. 85 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:59,000 And so, how can we implement these drafts? 86 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:01,000 Well, we have two different sources. 87 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:04,000 And I've titled them restrictive and personal resources. 88 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:09,000 Our restricted sources are federal reforms that we receive on an annual basis from the Department of Housing and Urban Development. 89 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:12,000 That is a branch of the federal government. 90 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:14,000 We get those funds on an annual basis. 91 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,000 We have four member types of funding. 92 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:21,000 So, we see, we have our CBVG fund that stands for a community development block grant. 93 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:26,000 That is the long-standing federal funding source for housing creation and preservation. 94 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:32,000 We have our home investment partnership funds that we get in the $1.3 million on an annual basis. 95 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:38,000 And then we have our emergency solution grant fund and then our housing opportunities for people with AIDS fund. 96 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,000 As well. 97 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:49,000 The formula that the federal government uses to handle that allocation is broken down based off a population size and a number of other things. 98 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:55,000 So, to be an entitlement city, which the CEO of Greensboro is, we have to have over a certain population threshold. 99 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:59,000 Therefore, we directly receive those funds from the federal government. 100 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:05,000 And I will give the disclaimer why they are restricted is because there are eligible activities associated with those funds. 101 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:09,000 There are targeted audience that those funds can benefit as well. 102 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:12,000 And there are strict expenditure deadlines for those funds. 103 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:17,000 If you do not use those funds, those funds are in jeopardy of being recaptured. 104 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:22,000 The other source of funds that we have time for those flexible funds are funds that we secure here locally. 105 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:25,000 So, typically, your general obligation bonds. 106 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:28,000 You will have enough funds for any other type of funding here. 107 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:34,000 We leverage in partnership with self-help credit union for their housing loan fund. 108 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:37,000 2016, you can see there is $1,5 million for housing. 109 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:40,000 And then, $22, there was $30 million for housing. 110 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:47,000 And then, in those bond fund, which is a percentage on the tax rate, that generates approximately $6 million on gain rule basis. 111 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:56,000 We also invested $5 million in the housing loan fund to unlock an additional $30 million, who has that $35 million total for those. 112 00:23:56,000 --> 00:24:01,000 And you'll see how someone has spent over the past five years for them. 113 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:05,000 So, what can we do under the past five years? Well, we can hit them. 114 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:11,000 Well, now we've been over $25 million to develop and preserve over $12 million of affordable housing units. 115 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,000 That's just the affordable housing units. 116 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:19,000 And that term of affordability, that is something that is very unique to the specific areas. 117 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:25,000 So, when we talk about affordable housing here in the Greensboro, we're talking about certainly populations at 80 million. 118 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:29,000 At 80% of the area of media income and being loved. 119 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:33,000 And the area of media income, which relates to my household size. 120 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:38,000 You've also invested $3.4 million in health ownership repairs and disinvested communities. 121 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:44,000 So, as you all may be aware, we offer a home repair rate in the amount of $20,000 for eligible recipients. 122 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:47,000 We've invested in this for that on an annual basis. 123 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:53,000 And then, we've also committed to supporting first-time homeowners with our amount of income assistance program. 124 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:56,000 And that is something that is a flagship in our community. 125 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:59,000 We see a lot of recipients of that program. 126 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:04,000 We have three different tracks that people can apply for to receive the down payment assistance as well. 127 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:12,000 And then we've leveraged over $225 million in non-seated resources for rental housing investment. 128 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:16,000 And so, how does this come into play with the road to 10,000 initiative? 129 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:22,000 This is something that is a large initiative that was set last year. 130 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:26,000 But it is not the sole focus of the housing and neighborhood development program. 131 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:31,000 We play a factor in that equation, but this is a city-wide initiative. 132 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:36,000 So, it's not just the city of Greensboro as a government organization that's spear hands this initiative. 133 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:41,000 It takes by and from private part of this and people outside of the city as well. 134 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:46,000 And they really focus on a community barriers, a lot in the way, and it's celebrating housing production. 135 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:51,000 And then, also, we've decided that to make this a little more sustainable as we continue to run the tours. 136 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:57,000 It's making sure that we can have some recommendations for you all to potentially consider in the future. 137 00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:01,000 So, really making sure that we can optimize our development reviewed procedures. 138 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:08,000 So, really making sure that there's a point person to assist the developers through the pertinent process, through the TRC process. 139 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:16,000 If we can have someone dedicated to certain and make sure that they can navigate through those procedures easily, that's something that we would like to consider as well. 140 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:20,000 And then, the use of our public land, and we'll talk a little more about that. 141 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:30,000 But our organization owns a host of property across our jurisdiction, and it is time for us to unlock those and leverage those for the community as well. 142 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:34,000 And then, making sure that we've played an emphasis on quality of life investments. 143 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:40,000 Again, we're experiencing unprecedented growth, but we also must take care of the folks that live here in our community. 144 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:45,000 So, making sure that we can invest in the their quality of life is something that we'll be bringing forward to you. 145 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:49,000 And so, we'll go back to the four doors. 146 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,000 The four-volt rental housing implementation. 147 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:57,000 So, this is something, again, that's all about the housing loan fund that was launched in January, 2024. 148 00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:00,000 But you can also see how some of those funds were utilized. 149 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:07,000 So, 200 units at 30% area meetings income, that is more of the deepest affordability targets that you can hit. 150 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:13,000 And then, 1200 units per ad or below, since you've put that in other areas, it's something that we've done as well. 151 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:18,000 Again, leveraging city of land for multi-family development, of course, well. 152 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:24,000 There will be a number of items that you will, that will become a 40-period consideration that our own city of land. 153 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,000 So, really making sure that we can use those. 154 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:28,000 And then subsidizing the mixed income to them. 155 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:33,000 Oftentimes, you see that some of our funding goes directly for 100% affordable projects. 156 00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:40,000 What we need to start thinking about now is down first to find that funding and investing it into mixed income projects. 157 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:45,000 And really making sure that people are supposed to different socioeconomic levels. 158 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:50,000 You know, when they can receive that funding or the housing is subsidized, that's great. 159 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:58,000 But studies show, for a really to have a better track of life, it requires them to interact with people from different backgrounds. 160 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:03,000 So, when we invest in mixed income, that is something that we're promoting as well. 161 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:11,000 Neighborhood reinvestment, so really partnering with the neighbors, making sure that we're out there in front of them, making sure that they understand what services we provide. 162 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:16,000 And to make sure that they understand why we are going about doing the things that we are doing. 163 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:28,000 We have partnered with the UNC School of Government with Development Finance Initiative for a host of things, willing to study the existing infrastructure on top of that infrastructure on top of that existing homes, the existing land. 164 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:36,000 And even land that the city does not own, how can we leverage the things that we have, and and part of what the product market is well. 165 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:41,000 Utilizing our home repair program, our development and the set down payment programs as well. 166 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:44,000 And then the interfaith housing collaboration. 167 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:51,000 If the city owns a ton of land, we know churches and other religious institutions on a host of land as well. 168 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:56,000 So really making sure that we can bring into the table and leverage what they have is important. 169 00:28:56,000 --> 00:29:02,000 And then the community land trust model. This is something that we've explored over the years that we're still trying to form a loss. 170 00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:10,000 There is a option to go forward with this model and we'll talk a little bit more about that flow. 171 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,000 Access to homelessness. 172 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:17,000 Typically, I've heard the American dream is, oh no. 173 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:24,000 And I still, a lot of people's dreams that they not be everyone's dream, but if it is someone's dream, we want to make sure that we can support that. 174 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:30,000 Again, making sure that we can do the down payment assistance program that is super important for a lot of our recipients. 175 00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:35,000 They can receive up to $20,000 in down payment assistance there. 176 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:39,000 And it also goes all the way up to 120% AMI. 177 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:45,000 So instead of talking about that 8% AMI threshold and increasing it up to 120%. 178 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:48,000 That really gives a lot more folks in the door. 179 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:51,000 We're talking about our nurses. We're talking about our teachers. 180 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:53,000 We're talking about our police officers, our firefighters. 181 00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:59,000 We need to make sure that we can take care of them as well because they need just as much as the system as the next person. 182 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:12,000 And then also making sure that, you know, when we contract with different down payment assistance providers, that they can provide that educational component to those recipients. What does it look like to maintain your own? 183 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:21,000 What does it look like to maintain your community? What does it look like in 10, 15 years as your family grows? What does it look like to sell that property? 184 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:25,000 So really make sure that they are equipped with that information as well. 185 00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:30,000 And then support housing. That is another component of the housing spectrum. 186 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:39,000 Support housing is something that really has a support of service provider. What is support of services financial literacy? On on-site health planning. 187 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:47,000 These are that nature of whether residents can benefit from the service being provided there and that's something that we have really incentivized in the past. 188 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:59,000 Most recently, 817 summit, the one that we will all just vote on, cut a week ago, that is a support of housing project and there will be some more coming down the pipeline as well. 189 00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:03,000 So some things to consider as we continue this conversation. 190 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:15,000 The demand for additional net finance and finance. People are coming to the city of Brinkford, and they want to develop. They also want to have an affordability component associated with their project. 191 00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:21,000 But as we know, it is very expensive to build affordable housing or mixed income housing. 192 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:29,000 The average cost to build a affordable housing project is around 10 to 20 million dollars. 193 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:35,000 And that puts us right around $280,000 per door. 194 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:43,000 And that is something that is very challenging. And if you were talking about it, $280,000 or a door. 195 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:47,000 We're really making sure that we could think about some of the things to incentivize. 196 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:51,000 Again, leveraging a city on real estate is super important. 197 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:57,000 The way that we have in our inventory, what can we do to make sure is prepared to be developed in the future. 198 00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:59,000 We're thinking of how we utilize the NUSBOM funding. 199 00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:03,000 The NUSBOM funding typically is for services. 200 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:09,000 Sometimes those funds can be reallocated if we're developing a business. 201 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:13,000 And even if it's not something that we are contracting to a developer. 202 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:17,000 If we can utilize those funds and a house to work with our resources. 203 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:19,000 To expand water and sewer. 204 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:23,000 To make sure that utility locations are handled on the market. 205 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:25,000 Really thinking about them to utilize those funds there. 206 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:27,000 And then I continue focus on affordable. 207 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:29,000 Again, we want all kinds of housing. 208 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:33,000 But there is a way that we can incorporate affordability in those. 209 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:35,000 And the community land trust model. 210 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:41,000 How can we use a community land trust to benefit all of the residents here in city of Rizbro? 211 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:43,000 No matter where they reside. 212 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:49,000 So really making sure that people won't know if a property is in a land trust. 213 00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:53,000 They're going to see a quality structure on a parcel. 214 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,000 They're going to see a thing we're staying there. 215 00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,000 And they're not going to have any include. 216 00:32:57,000 --> 00:33:01,000 So making sure that we can leverage that opportunity as well. 217 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:05,000 And the last thing we consider is increasing the staff and community capacity for the road to 2000. 218 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,000 As we continue to grow. 219 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,000 As we continue to launch these initiatives. 220 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:11,000 We're going to need more hands at table. 221 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,000 And we're going to need more minds at the table. 222 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,000 So as we continue to do these things. 223 00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:19,000 These are things that I think you all should consider as we move forward. 224 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:23,000 And then what's on that we're not seeing. 225 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:27,000 All of us have already been missing for the road in 2000. 226 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,000 Those will be coming this spring. 227 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:31,000 Gat find us in rewards. 228 00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:33,000 Those will be coming this spring as well. 229 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:39,000 And we'll make sure that we communicate with people all about what is on the horizon for the Gat find. 230 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:45,000 Make sure that you all understand that the community has been engaged for these projects will be important as well. 231 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:47,000 And then again, city on the sides. 232 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:49,000 The job neighbor's side. 233 00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:51,000 Prosperity of lives. 234 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:55,000 So we're trying to get them to close and so they get their product up and run. 235 00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,000 1810. 236 00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:59,000 The Regency side. 237 00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:01,000 The DHIC. 238 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:03,000 That's going through the tax credit process right now. 239 00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:05,000 We're going to sauce plausible self help. 240 00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:07,000 That's going to pass credit process. 241 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:11,000 And then so it was something else we've seen with Alexander going through the tax credit process. 242 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:13,000 We've been communicating with them regularly. 243 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:15,000 And we feel pretty good about their chances. 244 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:17,000 And we're seeing the tax credit. 245 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:21,000 This is something that is really cool that we're in the midst of right now. 246 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:23,000 Stage one of that just completed. 247 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:31,000 Stage one was that we're asking for interest to developers to really say that they're very interested in potentially purchasing and developing the process. 248 00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:33,000 We had seven responses for those. 249 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:35,000 And they were all very strong. 250 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:41,000 So now what we will do is tailor a formal RFP to go out directly to those seven people that responded. 251 00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:45,000 And then we'll get community feedback on what they would like to see there. 252 00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:49,000 And then we will be bringing you awesome proposals to remember as well. 253 00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:51,000 Right. 254 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:53,000 Any questions?

I would like to advocate them, but we don't, we're trying not to speak for them until we do that. 362 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:12,000 But I'll let you know how much we have available. 363 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:13,000 Thank you, isn't it? 364 00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:16,000 Yes, I go back to the, the infill. 365 00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:20,000 You were talking about unlocking those properties that we have within the city. 366 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:26,000 Are you, do you have any preliminary thoughts about how to unlock them for instance? 367 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:29,000 I know that we've been trying to market those. 368 00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:33,000 And so the property said, maybe there for some time, as opposed to that, maybe, 369 00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:35,000 heavily discounting. 370 00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:41,000 I'd much rather have the development that they have a, a for sale sign, so to speak. 371 00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:42,000 That's exactly right. 372 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:45,000 So the first thing that we're doing is creating a uniform disposition process. 373 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:50,000 So as you all may be aware, the city owns property, the redevelopment commission, 374 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:51,000 owns property. 375 00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:55,000 Brits were housing development partnership, which is an extension of the nonprofit. 376 00:38:55,000 --> 00:39:01,000 They don't property as well, but there are three separate processes for people to 377 00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:04,000 inquire about during those last. 378 00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:06,000 We're going to create a uniform disposition process. 379 00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:11,000 We're also conducting surveys on all of those to make sure people can have that information. 380 00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:17,000 And then also, we will entertain, you know, selling those lots at a different rate. 381 00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:19,000 So people can get those. 382 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:21,000 And I'll say that there'll be super heavily discounted. 383 00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:23,000 That's something that we'll consider depending on the process. 384 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:26,000 But it really is trying to make sure that they are out there. 385 00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:28,000 People can see them as well. 386 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,000 I don't really see a problem with them. 387 00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:33,000 Because as long as we have some provisions in place for instance, 388 00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:36,000 timing and, you know, type development. 389 00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:43,000 So that we can start getting the property tax regulation off of the improved versus what 390 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:46,000 we have right now, which is the problem in that. 391 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:49,000 Yeah, until that need or if anything else. 392 00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:52,000 And it comes to the Nussbaum fund. 393 00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:53,000 The six. 394 00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:54,000 The six. 395 00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:56,000 The one set. 396 00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:57,000 And. 397 00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:59,000 Give us more of our community. 398 00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:01,000 Give the housing that we need. 399 00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:05,000 I know you have a city manager sitting in the hospital table for me. 400 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:08,000 Is that not mine? 401 00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:11,000 No. 402 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,000 Start a fantasy. 403 00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:14,000 You have some. 404 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:15,000 Absolutely. 405 00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:16,000 Yes. 406 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:22,000 Is any of the emergency situations that we've had from the warming centers to the districts? 407 00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:25,000 Is any of that coming out of the Nussbaum fund money? 408 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:28,000 So I'll speak to the the mass displacement fund. 409 00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:30,000 That does come out of the Nussbaum fund. 410 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:32,000 That's in the amount of $200,000. 411 00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:33,000 And for the shelters. 412 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:34,000 I'm sure. 413 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:35,000 I'm here. 414 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:36,000 We'll share a little bit about that on this one. 415 00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:38,000 Some of it does come from Nussbaum. 416 00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:39,000 Yeah. 417 00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:41,000 I just know that there are a lot of challenges out there. 418 00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:42,000 They're increasingly. 419 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:44,000 And it's going to cost some money. 420 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:46,000 I know we have a budget coming up. 421 00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:50,000 And we're going to have to actually decide what's really important for the community as a whole. 422 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:55,000 I know that housing is something that we're all very interested in because we don't have 423 00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:58,000 the house if we don't have all the other things that come in. 424 00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:02,000 So I'll be happy if you didn't help me. 425 00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:04,000 We brought it through that in the budget. 426 00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:06,000 Just to give you all some additional context. 427 00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:12,000 We have nine tax credit applications that were submitted for Priat with the state last week. 428 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:13,000 Nine. 429 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:15,000 That's the most of this entire thing around. 430 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:17,000 All of them will not get funded. 431 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:19,000 Like all of them have quality projects. 432 00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:21,000 We would love to fund all. 433 00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:23,000 But you know, those are some things that we need to think about. 434 00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:26,000 Those are some metrics that we'll have for you in the future. 435 00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:29,000 As we talk about budget preparation and things of that. 436 00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:30,000 Thank you. 437 00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:31,000 I have a question. 438 00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:32,000 Then Tammy. 439 00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:36,000 So on the homes

442 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:44,000 I don't want to address this. 443 00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:46,000 And also. 444 00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:50,000 Do we know the career of the person. 445 00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:52,000 It just be a curiosity. 446 00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:57,000 I think it would get me an idea of who is applying for that. 447 00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:00,000 Maybe we need to market a little bit more so. 448 00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:02,000 I would like that. 449 00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:03,000 Sure. 450 00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:04,000 All right. 451 00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:05,000 Amy. 452

requesting on legislative agenda. 459 00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:25,000 And I think we need to be very intentional. 460 00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:27,000 About. 461 00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:32,000 Not missing that deadline or not waiting till the very end, especially as it comes to you. 462 00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:36,000 Some of the housing needs and housing projects that we have. 463 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:41,000 And things that that we could be asking for support on. 464 00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:45,000 You know, I really go on weight to the last minute. 465 00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:48,000 Again, the

chose it. 487 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:21,000 It's. 488 00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:22,000 It's. 489 00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:24,000 It's. 490 00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:27,000 Thank you. 491 00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:28,000 Thank you. 492 00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:29,000 Thank you. 493 00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:30,000 Thank you very much. 494 00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:37,000 So I have some slides here that I want to go through that are really specific to. 495 00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:39,000 Where I've been with services. 496 00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:45,000 And then I have some sort of anecdotal things to talk service well because there is a lot that goes into this effort. 497 00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:46,000 It is not dollars and cents. 498 00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:50,000 It's not documenting where it's just a lot of people's being alive really great work. 499 00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:54,000 So a lot to say and then of course I'll take questions at the end. 500 00:43:54,000 --> 00:44:00,000 So we have five programs that I see as being supportive of our on house efforts. 501 00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:04,000 The first is GSO that's one of our community safety department. 502 00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:06,000 That is street outreach. 503 00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:08,000 It is booted somewhere around people. 504 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:11,000 Going up to unhouse, individuals coming out there and standing out there, and story. 505 00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:12,000 Why are they unhouse? 506 00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:13,000 What resources did they need? 507 00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:16,000 They have mental health challenges to need, and you choose to do that. 508 00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:20,000 Those were to things when we did to you, I stood down, and we started getting 2 over to 509 00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:22,000 those groups are out of our ministry. 510 00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:26,000 And in the half Wife Live, where's that's if it's cold outside. 511 00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:27,000 People activate. 512 00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:31,000 What generally Hyperitwasn't Open for Children and when I say generally, an Overflow 513 00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:32,640 I say generally an over-fledged shelter, 514 00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:35,480 a white flag is intended to pick up the slack, 515 00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:37,880 where shelters don't have beds. 516 00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:39,800 That's not how it works in this community. 517 00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:42,360 We have over 100 shelter beds open right now, 518 00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:46,120 and I have 170-8 people at white flag last weekend. 519 00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:48,520 That's really not how the system is intended to operate. 520 00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:50,120 However, for whatever reason, 521 00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:53,040 people are utilizing shelters and they prefer a white flag. 522 00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:56,080 That program, we will continue to run it. 523 00:44:56,080 --> 00:44:57,280 I know that the weather would never, 524 00:44:57,280 --> 00:44:58,600 they started to push back a little bit 525 00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:00,120 on use of first batch. 526 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:06,560 I did talk to the pastor there yesterday. They were committed to helping us with this effort this year and next year in the 527 00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:12,400 year after that, we have to. But we are aware of some concerns from the community with how often we 528 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:17,200 touched a Floyd White flag and how often we had to avoid it 24 hours a day because of severe weather. 529 00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:23,280 Our doorway project is of course the Palatins, there's a photo of them up there and we have the RZ out there 530 00:45:23,280 --> 00:45:28,080 and I know part all said that we talked about this last year. That state law that is going to only stay 531 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:31,920 up for six months and then we have to take the veil and consider it temporary shelters. 532 00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:37,760 Last summer we used the Regency site. That site is not available anymore because as they just 533 00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:43,120 explained to you, it's being developed. And so I don't have a plan for where the post-Palatins this summer. 534 00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:49,680 There are other properties that have been mentioned, the up fit costs to put the Palatins, 535 00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:53,120 their spirit sets of it. So that's something that petition our working on. 536 00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:56,640 Plan for the summer and how to make it that can honestly look fit within our budget. 537 00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:03,440 Another part of the behavioral health response team, we know that many of our unhoused individuals 538 00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:08,240 also experiencing mental health crises. So our behavioral health response team is a two-month 539 00:46:08,240 --> 00:46:13,440 clinicians that go out with police officers, trying to abuse situations. A lot of times the person 540 00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:18,720 is not necessarily having a mental health crisis, but it's just that because they're unhoused 541 00:46:18,720 --> 00:46:21,520 and because they're upset about lots of things they're going on, they just need some 542 00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:24,320 to listen to now and it's just sometimes we see that too. 543 00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:33,200 I think one of the reasons we landed on the previously mentioned GSO home was because that particular team 544 00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:39,040 became inundated with calls. And they're really more and more equipped to handle some of the touch 545 00:46:39,040 --> 00:46:43,760 points with quotes that might not be in the situation that there's a violation of law, but just somebody 546 00:46:43,760 --> 00:46:49,600 that had an experience of having some type of training, as it relates to folks that might be 547 00:46:49,600 --> 00:46:55,760 speaking as a different challenge. So that the previous GSO home team, home team derived out of 548 00:46:56,880 --> 00:47:04,160 real indation of calls to this participant. All right. And then of course the only thing I'm 549 00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:08,160 faster is we've funded about half of that program. It's on our program. It's been a bad CGI, 550 00:47:08,160 --> 00:47:12,000 but I cannot say enough about the ambassadors. They really help us with street outreach 551 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:16,240 because no one else is doing it except GSO home. And so they're being people where they are, 552 00:47:16,240 --> 00:47:20,080 they are asking, hey, can I take you a white flag, can I take you to the IRC, do you need shoes, 553 00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:24,400 do you need food, and not only hit your health, that's really not their original charge, 554 00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:28,480 but they were charged with and it surely was being a friendly face, giving people directions that sort of 555 00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:33,840 thing, but over time that's more into a much larger, still set. And again, I cannot praise that to 556 00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:39,120 them enough for how much they help us in the general talent area. So those are the five programs. 557 00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:47,680 How successful are we? So GSMM, in 2020 five I've got 300 referrals. This is two people. They 558 00:47:47,680 --> 00:47:55,120 got 300 referrals. They provided a case management for 152 clients with a total of 1,569 559 00:47:56,480 --> 00:48:02,000 and they successfully re-housed 13 chronically unhoused individuals. I think that's a great success. 560 00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:09,840 White flag, six nights in November of 2020 five was average of 15,000 people each night, 561 00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:15,920 a hundred and forty nine unique individuals with a total of 352 contacts across all nights. 562 00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:22,000 I received a number of white flag operations in December. White flag was after in 19 times that month. 563 00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:29,520 So those nights there was an average of 88 people each night at 1,666 contacts across 19 564 00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:35,440 15 contacts with families, but we never had more than two families on the right. Remember, 565 00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:40,240 I cannot put families at the pallet home, chest state vault. The only thing we can offer for 566 00:48:40,240 --> 00:48:48,640 families through emergency to very healthy is like flat. The doorway project, last year the doorway project 567 00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:55,360 got a case management for 87 individuals, which is great. A major help for slot C, last year they received 568 00:48:55,360 --> 00:49:02,880 4,298 calls for service that resulted in 6,525 interactions. The team provided a case management 569 00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:08,720 for two thousand five hundred and eighty five individuals. Can I say you up? Because I just want to 570 00:49:08,720 --> 00:49:14,320 interject because this is a question that some of you have had when tracking encounters, how we're 571 00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:19,360 tracking and keeping up with the folks. One of the, some of the council members that won't 572 00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:24,400 produce council will remember the transition to the current format. So the current format of our 573 00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:30,480 behavior, a health team, allows us the ability to be able to case manage, which maybe we keep 574 00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:36,080 track and document. One of the biggest issues is people being lost in the system and not knowing 575 00:49:36,080 --> 00:49:42,560 and not keeping a strong database off of the work with HMIS, which is the system that the other partners 576 00:49:42,560 --> 00:49:48,320 into face with. But this is a big thing for us to be able to have in-house staff that work with 577 00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:54,960 this population that have case management. That way, you know, use part of what you see when you 578 00:49:54,960 --> 00:50:00,240 you see the gist of wanting. A big part of it, some folks, you know, everybody thinks that 579 00:50:00,240 --> 00:50:05,120 given a person's place to stay or given a person's house, person housing, some of it all over the 580 00:50:05,120 --> 00:50:11,600 lot of time it's not in. In terms there are folks that are in a place that they don't want to receive that 581 00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:16,960 or it may take somebody to build a relationship with them to the point that they've had trust, 582 00:50:16,960 --> 00:50:23,440 so that we can have it, allow you're someone that wants to navigate into the right place. So that's really 583 00:50:23,440 --> 00:50:32,480 what these teams have served for them. And then the downtown ambassador numbers, again, great success 584 00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:40,240 over here. They've invited directions to 4,500 people, and delivered it over 7,876. It's since the 585 00:50:40,240 --> 00:50:46,960 facility, 148 business requests, travelers age, and 19 individuals, 100 gives three well bear 586 00:50:46,960 --> 00:50:51,840 chefs, and 92 outreach resource referrals. And that's only in six, they track their data in six 587 00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:57,200 month time blocks. So again, I think so what we're spending, we're getting a good return. And so now 588 00:50:57,200 --> 00:51:04,720 I'll go through all of the city. GSM home, and they go help our thoughts together, 1.2 million dollars 589 00:51:04,720 --> 00:51:11,360 this year. Squelfles on people will either cross the shoe programs. It's expensive, but we utilize 590 00:51:11,360 --> 00:51:17,680 that you can see from the numbers. Wi-Fi, that contract is $100,000 depending on the number of 591 00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:22,240 activations that we're paying the higher seat, the church is not charging us to use their facility. 592 00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:31,840 Door by project, total 450,000 operations are the rentals cleaning, et cetera, it's 274,500. And then 593 00:51:31,840 --> 00:51:36,240 we pay the IRC-180,000 to do caseling and spent for everyone who's living there and trying to get 594 00:51:36,240 --> 00:51:41,520 them housed to services, et cetera. And then there's also an ambassador for a grant in the city pays 595 00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:50,560 190,000, et cetera, a grant, and DGF pays the rest for a total of 440, 434,000 dollars for that for 596 00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:55,440 the room. So a couple other things that I want to talk about, they're not in this slide, and I'll see 597 00:51:55,440 --> 00:52:00,800 those questions, sort of that on account of their costs. So, you know, I talked to police officers every 598 00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:07,280 day. Parking next, they're cleaning out stuff, and people are trying to, if those people connected, 599 00:52:07,280 --> 00:52:11,680 they code is going up and down and on street cleaning up for feedy, and then having to build people 600 00:52:11,680 --> 00:52:16,720 back for cleaning up for their feedy. We're having to add additional officers down to how to deal with 601 00:52:16,720 --> 00:52:22,400 call load. We've cleared out under the bridge at Freeman Millents, Britain Garden, code and 602 00:52:22,400 --> 00:52:27,440 lease of clear night area twice already. It needs to be done again. People are getting out of jail, 603 00:52:27,440 --> 00:52:32,480 and they happen to get us. We have officers who are getting them money for Uber rides to get that kind 604 00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:40,480 or to wherever they're from. One of our officers has a formal bike path with all the nooks and crannies 605 00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:45,280 of downtown, and he rides that and just looks for people who might be sleeping under a blanket, 606 00:52:45,280 --> 00:52:49,840 who might be sitting on the sidewalk to try to get them. Some aids and resources, some food. We have 607 00:52:49,840 --> 00:52:56,080 officers buying pizzas and chicken and shoes and socks, or people. This is a really big effort. 608 00:52:56,080 --> 00:53:01,920 And there are some extra costs way above and beyond what I've presented here today. And then finally, 609 00:53:01,920 --> 00:53:05,520 I want to tell you one success story. I don't know if you all remember any ending, 610 00:53:05,520 --> 00:53:11,520 don't know what you said. That's a shame. Every day. Parking next week, I don't work with him for four 611 00:53:11,520 --> 00:53:18,720 months. He's going to have an apartment next month. Huge success story. He had to work on him for four 612 00:53:18,720 --> 00:53:25,280 months, chronically on-house, pooping, all over. Probably shouldn't say that. But just chronically 613 00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:34,000 on-house, had lots of issues going on. And he is now a huge success. That was a partnership with 614 00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:41,360 GSA and police department that I are seeing a lot of people in getting him for 13 years. So with that, 615 00:53:41,360 --> 00:53:47,840 I will take any questions and we're putting with questions. April, I appreciate you in the small 616 00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:55,680 tenure that I've had. I see you all are extremely responsive and very quick acting. And if I can kind of 617 00:53:55,680 --> 00:54:01,280 care of some of this, you're a great thanks. But what we said on Western wood earlier, that there might have 618 00:54:01,280 --> 00:54:06,800 been some concerns and conversations for the record. There have been no incidences. There have been 619 00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:11,440 zero incidences and we're going to the police department. We had one evening, there was a couple 620 00:54:11,440 --> 00:54:16,240 of white flags that got into a little back-and-forth disagreement, but we were able to resolve it very quickly. 621 00:54:16,240 --> 00:54:25,680 We need to not have to comment on everything. As couples too. And so, if that regard is that as we are 622 00:54:25,680 --> 00:54:30,480 taking care of our communities, there might be, you know, there's always going to be some concerns. And 623 00:54:30,480 --> 00:54:35,120 we want those to be, so we can troubleshoot and take care of it. It's not sufficient. We're just 624 00:54:35,120 --> 00:54:39,760 for the record and certainly there's been no incidences in this history period in that location. That's correct. 625 00:54:39,760 --> 00:54:45,440 And I'll give great thanks to Reverend Allen Scherhaus and the Winston-Rustling of Names and his church hall. 626 00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:49,760 Absolutely. I know he's built it a lot of questions and concerns from the Western wood community as well. 627 00:54:49,760 --> 00:54:53,440 I'd love to talk to him. Yeah, I will send you some of the thank you so much. 628 00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:58,080 So, I have a question. I'd like to go ahead and take a look. I'd like to go ahead and see Tanny and the 629 00:54:58,080 --> 00:55:04,640 crystal and then see suits. I'm honored. We spoke and just kind of bring everybody 630 00:55:04,640 --> 00:55:13,680 together on this. April and I when we were at Greensboro Urban Ministry, we tried extensive discussions 631 00:55:13,680 --> 00:55:23,120 about when it comes to housing our families. Are we spending money the most efficient, most helpful 632 00:55:23,120 --> 00:55:33,920 way? And one of the things that we talked about is for those families that are in crisis at the moment, 633 00:55:33,920 --> 00:55:40,640 but can handle supporting themselves from the future. I'd love to see us set up a program 634 00:55:42,080 --> 00:55:49,120 or a try-up program for a period of time, possibly would help because they do this work 635 00:55:50,720 --> 00:55:58,240 of a guaranteed monthly income to help bridge that gap of the missing rent piece until they recover 636 00:55:58,240 --> 00:56:08,080 from the major car repair or the sickness, or whatever cause them to not be housed for a 637 00:56:08,080 --> 00:56:14,800 break period of time. And I really think that you know, giving a family a thousand dollars a month 638 00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:21,120 or six months and then maybe stepping that down by a hundred and then two-fifth, whatever the right 639 00:56:21,120 --> 00:56:30,800 numbers are and I'll trust that other people know that far better than I do. I think both for families 640 00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:39,120 and perhaps for individuals as well that that's a more efficient way that there's money than looking 641 00:56:39,120 --> 00:56:47,200 at some of the programs that we're spending now. Again, it's back to that if we can go upstream and stop 642 00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:52,640 something much like Sacy talked about with the victims, stop it before it gets to the point that 643 00:56:52,640 --> 00:57:00,960 folks are unhoused. And I think we can do that for less money based on what I've heard of the cost of 644 00:57:00,960 --> 00:57:08,800 housing families are in shelter environments. That's something that I think we should consider and 645 00:57:09,520 --> 00:57:18,560 next budget round to see if we can go further with the same dollar. And I don't even need 646 00:57:18,560 --> 00:57:23,600 to know that we need to wait until the next budget because we're not to do something from a summer 647 00:57:23,600 --> 00:57:26,800 and we can move to a lot of like that as opposed to the pallet homes so that's something we'll 648 00:57:26,800 --> 00:57:32,080 have to take a look at. I think that would be great if we could do it sort of for a new inflation 649 00:57:33,040 --> 00:57:41,360 crystal that's easy and then able. I just wanted to know if you have the success rate from the 650 00:57:41,360 --> 00:57:50,320 IRC and how they're moving people from the unhoused position into housing if there's deaths as 651 00:57:50,320 --> 00:57:56,320 show that we're actually our investment as well. Yes, I do. Over half the people that were at that already 652 00:57:56,320 --> 00:58:00,400 might have smashed your document of housing only 20 to about 20 people moved for a summer 653 00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:11,920 doorway or winter door length. So I'm glad to hear that we're able to use the H&I S programming to 654 00:58:11,920 --> 00:58:18,800 track some of the case management through GSO home and I really appreciate that GSO home over the last few 655 00:58:18,800 --> 00:58:27,280 weekends when GSO has suddenly lead. But with us being able to use that software, there are other 656 00:58:27,280 --> 00:58:33,840 nonprofits and organizations that also use this software IRC being one of them to track their cases. 657 00:58:33,840 --> 00:58:41,280 Are we sharing information to make sure that we are giving each of these individuals the best and most 658 00:58:41,280 --> 00:58:46,800 efficient care? We absolutely share information with the IRC. Some of our nonprofit partners we don't 659 00:58:46,800 --> 00:58:53,680 share as well with and that's something actually about the county out yesterday. The COC being a 660 00:58:53,680 --> 00:58:59,040 opportunity together and more data sharing across us the county and high point and so that's something 661 00:58:59,040 --> 00:59:04,320 that they're committed to working on us on with us. And are you for county schools apart of that? 662 00:59:05,120 --> 00:59:08,880 We have not engaged them up to this point but that certainly we can certainly bring them to the table. We're 663 00:59:08,880 --> 00:59:21,600 kind of putting together what that team would look like. Thank you. April? I think that we're doing a 664 00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:28,640 great job taking care and we better work in deep-ath slowly and visit an urban ministry but certainly 665 00:59:28,640 --> 00:59:35,680 that like the set is going into other supportive services. I just kind of wanted to define success 666 00:59:35,760 --> 00:59:42,080 and maybe not even to today or maybe at the future of retreat. This is a very complex issue and 667 00:59:42,080 --> 00:59:50,240 I know that we will unpacking it but I just wanted to say that some of the root causes some of that 668 00:59:50,240 --> 00:59:55,360 examination. I don't know where that lives in this and so it's one thing to be extremely responsive 669 00:59:55,360 --> 00:59:59,040 which I think that we are but also 670 01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:05,000 The success is to, kind of, maybe, even what the case management kind of looks like right now. 671 01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:14,000 Still, where the trends that we're seeing has been, we can kind of target some of our funding or some of our partnerships. 672 01:00:14,000 --> 01:00:24,000 So, as it most people are experiencing, you know, what are the ways on which people become willing to be situations that we can be more targeted and to intervention. 673 01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:34,000 So, that, like you said, maybe next summer, well, the sun's summer is later, we'll be having a different discussion with different numbers of people being affected. 674 01:00:34,000 --> 01:00:43,000 Yeah, and I think that's where again, the CSD can really come in and really help us incorporate across all nonprofits, some of what you're talking about. 675 01:00:43,000 --> 01:00:45,000 So, good. 676 01:00:45,000 --> 01:00:46,000 Thank you. 677 01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:47,000 Yes. 678 01:00:47,000 --> 01:00:49,000 ACM peril. 679 01:00:49,000 --> 01:00:51,000 And this is that kind of one. 680 01:00:52,000 --> 01:00:53,000 Yeah. 681 01:00:53,000 --> 01:00:55,000 This is one of those speakers with questions. 682 01:00:55,000 --> 01:00:56,000 I know there. 683 01:00:56,000 --> 01:00:59,000 But free is councils and looking at white flag. 684 01:00:59,000 --> 01:01:03,000 I believe that the temperature. 685 01:01:03,000 --> 01:01:06,000 The, the target temperature was 28 degrees. 686 01:01:06,000 --> 01:01:07,000 Great. 687 01:01:07,000 --> 01:01:08,000 I'm reading that. 688 01:01:08,000 --> 01:01:09,000 To 32. 689 01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:11,000 Or the field flight temperatures. 690 01:01:11,000 --> 01:01:15,000 What does field flight work, at least two hours, sometimes I read that time for it. 691 01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:20,000 Has there ever been any analysis that would show that if we were to increase that number. 692 01:01:20,000 --> 01:01:27,000 I mean, I tend to be a copenate of person and in 28 30 to 35 38 are still very cold to me. 693 01:01:27,000 --> 01:01:34,000 Has been any analysis that we show that we raise that number up to 35 38. 694 01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:41,000 What the impact would be what the strength of the system, you know, staffing, dollars, numbers. 695 01:01:41,000 --> 01:01:42,000 So, the key answer than the railings. 696 01:01:42,000 --> 01:01:43,000 Okay. 697 01:01:43,000 --> 01:01:45,000 The key answer is, have you seen the weather trends lately? 698 01:01:45,000 --> 01:01:46,000 Yeah. 699 01:01:46,000 --> 01:01:47,000 Yeah. 700 01:01:47,000 --> 01:01:48,000 I don't like to predict anything. 701 01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:49,000 Right. 702 01:01:49,000 --> 01:01:50,000 18 times in December we have to make it. 703 01:01:50,000 --> 01:01:51,000 Right. 704 01:01:51,000 --> 01:01:52,000 Right. 705 01:01:52,000 --> 01:01:53,000 So, but no, we've, we've not looked at that. 706 01:01:53,000 --> 01:01:56,000 Certainly something that we could take into consideration if we should do that to 35 or 40 or 707 01:01:56,000 --> 01:01:59,000 should it be if there's going to be any, I just don't agree around. 708 01:01:59,000 --> 01:02:01,000 We can look at that. 709 01:02:01,000 --> 01:02:04,000 I will say, with that comes a higher dollar figure. 710 01:02:04,000 --> 01:02:06,000 Because we have to, just at that. 711 01:02:06,000 --> 01:02:08,000 That's because, because we're not in black flag. 712 01:02:08,000 --> 01:02:11,000 I hear that, you know, the, you know, the, you know, the staff that they are seeing. 713 01:02:11,000 --> 01:02:16,000 They're the ones that they've worked during the day and then they are on white flag. 714 01:02:16,000 --> 01:02:17,000 They don't know into the evening. 715 01:02:17,000 --> 01:02:18,000 And so, right. 716 01:02:18,000 --> 01:02:21,000 The staffing cost, they will roll, cost would be much greater. 717 01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:22,000 But this is the agency of the numbers. 718 01:02:22,000 --> 01:02:23,000 Sure. 719 01:02:23,000 --> 01:02:27,000 And they will be able to see even how that could be accommodated. 720 01:02:27,000 --> 01:02:30,000 Because their time is just overwhelming. 721 01:02:30,000 --> 01:02:33,000 So that, that's actually something we need to take back. 722 01:02:33,000 --> 01:02:39,000 Our, our representative on COC would need to make sure we take that to the COC board. 723 01:02:39,000 --> 01:02:42,000 I think this was in collaborative conversation over the last couple of years. 724 01:02:42,000 --> 01:02:45,000 I think we changed hours because there was an imbalance. 725 01:02:45,000 --> 01:02:52,000 And the idea is to make sure that our threshold was the same as our department is able to build for county. 726 01:02:52,000 --> 01:02:58,000 So when that activation happens, then there's consistency across all of our networks of operation. 727 01:02:58,000 --> 01:03:02,000 And of course, people don't think about whether they're very, or half point. 728 01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:04,000 They just know they don't have children. 729 01:03:04,000 --> 01:03:07,000 And I do believe at some point we were lower. 730 01:03:07,000 --> 01:03:09,000 And we raised hours. 731 01:03:09,000 --> 01:03:14,000 2080 into into me the same as what this county and half done work. 732 01:03:14,000 --> 01:03:19,000 But I think, and I'm looking over at ACM here, as well as. 733 01:03:19,000 --> 01:03:25,000 So we're 200 to make sure our representatives on COC board raise that one. 734 01:03:25,000 --> 01:03:26,000 Right. 735 01:03:26,000 --> 01:03:30,000 And now on the same was some of similar times. 736 01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:36,000 And I think we've all heard that we may be losing the, the one family center that we have. 737 01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:39,000 Here in Greece brought the YWCA. 738 01:03:39,000 --> 01:03:40,000 We did. 739 01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:42,000 We lost that. 740 01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:44,000 And so so for now. 741 01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:46,000 And so. 742 01:03:46,000 --> 01:03:49,000 Are there any thoughts about. 743 01:03:49,000 --> 01:03:52,000 Replicating or scanning of. 744 01:03:53,000 --> 01:03:57,000 Or doing something so that we had an option for families because every family doesn't. 745 01:03:57,000 --> 01:03:58,000 But can I. 746 01:03:58,000 --> 01:04:01,000 But the RC isn't built for. 747 01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:06,000 White flag as I've been there is not necessarily built for families. 748 01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:10,000 As we had any family options or we think you know, if any family options. 749 01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:15,000 We certainly have collaborated some with the YWCA and looked at. 750 01:04:15,000 --> 01:04:16,000 You know. 751 01:04:16,000 --> 01:04:19,000 What happens there and because that is to back up. 752 01:04:19,000 --> 01:04:23,000 So the families that were there did go to the pathways center through the Greensboro administration. 753 01:04:23,000 --> 01:04:25,000 So that everyone was able to go somewhere. 754 01:04:25,000 --> 01:04:30,000 But yeah, we think about families every time we have this discussion. 755 01:04:30,000 --> 01:04:33,000 The state law, maybe a little more a little more difficult. 756 01:04:33,000 --> 01:04:34,000 But I do agree with you. 757 01:04:34,000 --> 01:04:36,000 We need something for families. 758 01:04:36,000 --> 01:04:37,000 We did. 759 01:04:37,000 --> 01:04:38,000 Adam. 760 01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:39,000 Well, we're just. 761 01:04:39,000 --> 01:04:40,000 Okay. 762 01:04:40,000 --> 01:04:41,000 The last. 763 01:04:41,000 --> 01:04:42,000 And. 764 01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:44,000 On the cost perspective. 765 01:04:44,000 --> 01:04:46,000 The $100,000 for white flag. 766 01:04:46,000 --> 01:04:48,000 That's the self imposed budgetary. 767 01:04:48,000 --> 01:04:51,000 And we can we can add funds to that if we needed to. 768 01:04:51,000 --> 01:04:52,000 If white flag. 769 01:04:52,000 --> 01:04:53,000 We said. 770 01:04:53,000 --> 01:04:56,000 And the IRC is the only one who responded to the RFP. 771 01:04:56,000 --> 01:05:00,000 But the RFP was $100,000 to run the white flag program this winter. 772 01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:02,000 Regardless of the numbers of times that. 773 01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:03,000 Okay. 774 01:05:03,000 --> 01:05:06,000 Because I can I can only imagine that we did 18 times new summer. 775 01:05:06,000 --> 01:05:08,000 We did 15 times. 776 01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:11,000 And then eventually that money to run out because. 777 01:05:11,000 --> 01:05:12,000 You know, they're. 778 01:05:12,000 --> 01:05:13,000 They're on volunteer. 779 01:05:13,000 --> 01:05:14,000 That's correct. 780 01:05:14,000 --> 01:05:17,000 The person was the color backed down and in 합chonets. 781 01:05:17,000 --> 01:05:22,000 But I haven't called set tomorrow with me to curtain at the IRC to see where that funding is. 782 01:05:22,000 --> 01:05:25,000 How much we've drawn down, and do we need to add more? 783 01:05:25,000 --> 01:05:28,000 Because we just had 70 coal nights with 24 hour coverage. 784 01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:30,000 That's kind of unprecedented us. 785 01:05:30,000 --> 01:05:31,000 Absolutely. 786 01:05:31,000 --> 01:05:32,000 Okay. 787 01:05:32,000 --> 01:05:33,000 Adam, then. 788 01:05:33,000 --> 01:05:34,000 I have a question. 789 01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:35,000 Then Crystal. 790 01:05:35,000 --> 01:05:39,000 So, I think the BDR program has one of the better things. 791 01:05:39,000 --> 01:05:40,000 That's the two. 792 01:05:40,000 --> 01:05:41,000 The. 793 01:05:41,000 --> 01:05:47,720 and I don't know why. I don't think people that we have how many people are in that program 794 01:05:47,720 --> 01:05:52,440 providing those services. Sure, it fluctuates a little bit as officers get transferred as clinicians 795 01:05:52,440 --> 01:05:56,920 come and go. But obviously generally it's around 10 officers and 10 clinicians. So you 796 01:05:56,920 --> 01:06:03,560 have spaces that we have. I'll have to look to confirm that. Is that enough? No, no. How many 797 01:06:03,560 --> 01:06:10,920 do we need? I would say right now I could easily use three or four more clinicians and three 798 01:06:10,920 --> 01:06:16,600 or four more officers. I think the long run the last time we talked about the expansion plans 799 01:06:16,600 --> 01:06:22,280 to cover the gaps that are so important to you about to it. And what would that funding work like 800 01:06:22,280 --> 01:06:27,560 and what fund does that come from? I would have to go back to the budget piece. 801 01:06:27,560 --> 01:06:33,560 Well, you can, we can talk about it. Yeah, sure. I mean, you've talked about staff things 802 01:06:33,560 --> 01:06:40,120 we have talked about at your home. And then ultimately, you'd have to mix on the city. 803 01:06:41,240 --> 01:06:46,760 And it wasn't just long ago that that number four, right? Right. We started as a various multi 804 01:06:46,760 --> 01:06:51,160 because we were going to start a door and it was an external company that did it for us and we saw 805 01:06:51,160 --> 01:06:56,360 that that model was not the best one. So we ended up hiring everybody ourselves. It was that 10 806 01:06:56,360 --> 01:07:01,800 officers, 10 clinicians, we need three more officers or more clinicians. Is that, is that basically 807 01:07:01,800 --> 01:07:10,840 moving the roof? I would start there. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Okay. Okay. Then my 808 01:07:10,840 --> 01:07:18,200 comment and question, yes, seeing all of the calls that be heard gets, it's I don't even know how they 809 01:07:18,200 --> 01:07:24,680 can keep up because it's five six hundred a month. That's just a comment. My second one is this is 810 01:07:24,760 --> 01:07:34,200 a public health crisis. Is there any way to get any funds from the county for any of this that we 811 01:07:34,200 --> 01:07:41,960 are expanding because these are public health concerns? Yes. So I mentioned I met with the 812 01:07:41,960 --> 01:07:46,920 many of whom was served right from the county yesterday. And that's one of the things that we shared with 813 01:07:46,920 --> 01:07:51,160 her. She's obviously doing her role. She's been there for three weeks, but some of these funding challenges 814 01:07:51,240 --> 01:07:55,640 that we have and it's something that we've all those ready to collaborate on and and certainly 815 01:07:55,640 --> 01:08:00,280 discussed further, but I would hope that county could assist us with some of that. Right. Because I mean, 816 01:08:00,280 --> 01:08:09,640 if not see what I see is a draining their services like with EMS or with other things like that 817 01:08:09,640 --> 01:08:14,840 because someone down time would need to take an ambulance then or this or that or the other or to get to 818 01:08:14,840 --> 01:08:22,680 the hospital you know people can't be left out and cold. Just none of us wanted to respond to 819 01:08:22,680 --> 01:08:26,520 your initial comment. These are long calls too. Yeah. Have you heard there it's usually like a three hour 820 01:08:26,520 --> 01:08:31,800 call. They're not quick interactions. It's not taking a police report and keeping a new thing. So 821 01:08:31,800 --> 01:08:39,240 staffing is a challenge. Right. And I know the county has social workers. Just a thought. Okay, now crystal 822 01:08:39,240 --> 01:08:48,280 and then April. I wanted to circle back to the conversation around parking decks, graffiti and 823 01:08:48,280 --> 01:08:56,360 some of those extra calls that come into play that we're not accounting for. Do you have thoughts around 824 01:08:56,360 --> 01:09:02,920 that because I come from a sector where we spend our personal money to make things happen, you know, 825 01:09:02,920 --> 01:09:09,080 kids need things and we always our teachers are always going out of the way to support. But 826 01:09:09,080 --> 01:09:16,520 we also need to be forward thinking that if these are things that we actually need to provide in order to 827 01:09:16,520 --> 01:09:21,800 I mean, it's about, it's about providing dignity to people as well. Right. And so I think that's where 828 01:09:21,800 --> 01:09:28,440 some of the services come in. The Uber rides and we have an incident when we were at the grander 829 01:09:28,440 --> 01:09:35,640 where there was a gentleman dropped off from the hospital. So those type of things are unexpected. But are we 830 01:09:35,640 --> 01:09:44,360 actually creating some type of landing on four of those instances so that we're not taxing some of 831 01:09:44,360 --> 01:09:52,520 our public service that, you know, just right, the nickels together to. In a perfect world, we would take 832 01:09:52,520 --> 01:09:57,480 some of the dollars we're currently sending on some other things. And I'll give them to Mr. Piper every year 833 01:09:57,480 --> 01:10:03,160 from the foot of the house and we would have housing for a second. He would. I know he would. Where do you think 834 01:10:03,160 --> 01:10:08,280 the dollars that I was sending on the services come from? The dollars he needs for housing. So it's 835 01:10:08,280 --> 01:10:13,880 the same funding. So in a perfect world, we just want to try to get you out. So how do we work towards that? 836 01:10:15,480 --> 01:10:20,680 You know, to your point, the graffiti, I don't know that's necessarily related to being on house, 837 01:10:20,680 --> 01:10:25,160 but it certainly related to lawlessness, in general, in the community. And so that's something 838 01:10:25,160 --> 01:10:29,160 that police department tries to respond to the cameras all over downtown. One of the first things 839 01:10:30,120 --> 01:10:35,240 is who's doing all this for me. But at the end, we do have to find it out. Some of that stuff doesn't 840 01:10:35,240 --> 01:10:40,440 actually cost us that much more money that is manpower. It's wearing a whole down. That's the same place 841 01:10:40,440 --> 01:10:49,400 to do the same things. All right. April. I appreciate working in the process of the county, 842 01:10:49,400 --> 01:10:58,040 I'd be interested to see what that in position brings. But I'm also curious when we're talking about 843 01:10:58,040 --> 01:11:04,040 the hidden homeless and the family shelters. What is our communication and contact with 844 01:11:04,040 --> 01:11:10,120 Gilbert County schools? Because I believe that they have some someone who does a lot of care, 845 01:11:10,120 --> 01:11:15,800 some one for such a large system. I don't know what all that entails, but what is our relationship with 846 01:11:15,800 --> 01:11:19,880 right? So it's more in the school. And you can probably speak to this better in the accent. Actually, 847 01:11:19,880 --> 01:11:24,600 but some of them lost their social workers. And so wherever you have a connection point, we lost that 848 01:11:24,600 --> 01:11:29,720 at some schools, which is really unfortunate. We do have some contact with social workers at schools, 849 01:11:30,600 --> 01:11:34,600 teachers reach out sometimes. Sometimes the SRO is the way we're hitting and that big it's Donald through 850 01:11:34,600 --> 01:11:41,000 this system. But these teams are very, very good at following up when they know that there's a need and 851 01:11:41,000 --> 01:11:47,320 recognizing a need and getting it to the right resources. I'm just interested to see how we can strengthen 852 01:11:47,320 --> 01:11:52,280 that. It's the same residents. Yes. So it's the same families we're talking about and so I'm really 853 01:11:52,280 --> 01:11:57,800 interested in how we can strengthen a relationship that we're talking about the same families. And so 854 01:11:57,800 --> 01:12:07,000 I know that staffing, but creativity or even just a regular, scheduled, just as you patterns 855 01:12:07,000 --> 01:12:13,800 and such a engaging in understanding what you really helpful. I think just to add to that, 856 01:12:13,800 --> 01:12:20,680 coming from this sort of system, that partnership probably could just strengthen more between the school 857 01:12:20,680 --> 01:12:28,840 system, or at those types of certain centers. Because there's a whole, and homelessness department 858 01:12:28,840 --> 01:12:35,800 that you're carrying the schools. And I know there's some gap in actually communication between them 859 01:12:35,800 --> 01:12:43,480 and the county with being able to collaborate. So I think you never fully tear into city being added to it 860 01:12:43,480 --> 01:12:49,720 that that relationship needs to be fostered first, so that they are collaborating. 861 01:12:51,000 --> 01:12:56,840 For example, school social worker and social worker that may have a case for a particular child, 862 01:12:56,840 --> 01:13:03,800 they don't collaborate. Instead of having you serve the staff child effectively, those parties that are 863 01:13:03,800 --> 01:13:09,000 dealing with that stupid or collaborate. And so I don't know what's we at the city going to live where 864 01:13:09,000 --> 01:13:15,320 our piece is on that, but I think they helped in your start with the school system, what they're doing, 865 01:13:15,400 --> 01:13:20,280 and bridging them to the services that they were receiving, that we had seen it as a gap, 866 01:13:21,160 --> 01:13:26,440 that we didn't have on the city from the city level that could help support. 867 01:13:28,440 --> 01:13:35,320 All right. So we have a update on where they tell me homelessness task or 868 01:13:36,520 --> 01:13:42,360 is in their process. I know that I was assigned to it. I think others have been assigned to it. 869 01:13:43,160 --> 01:13:50,200 Since November, I've not heard anything. And I don't know, are they working and I'm just not getting the information, 870 01:13:50,200 --> 01:13:55,800 or are they not working? We are. So staff meets what's the month before that task we're meeting. So we, 871 01:13:55,800 --> 01:14:00,920 that last month, maybe itself, had to be canceled. But we are still working together and collaborating, 872 01:14:00,920 --> 01:14:06,040 and there is work happening. The next step, I think for the county is like a formal adoption, 873 01:14:06,040 --> 01:14:11,800 about almost strategic plan. I don't know that has happened yet, so that's sort of what they wanted to do, 874 01:14:11,800 --> 01:14:16,200 and then we cannot collaborate from there. But yes, that group is still communicating and working. 875 01:14:16,760 --> 01:14:23,320 Okay. So those of us that have been appointed to that group, don't know. Okay. What when it is, when it 876 01:14:23,320 --> 01:14:30,520 meets, if they're working, the next thing has not been said, the last one was canceled. So I called because I 877 01:14:30,520 --> 01:14:38,520 noticed Tammy was not on the sheet. So I let Robin know that we need to make sure because right now, I mean, 878 01:14:38,520 --> 01:14:41,880 if there's been any correspondence in the last little bit, we haven't got anything to finish. 879 01:14:41,880 --> 01:14:47,480 And my understanding is, you know, in the past, I think we've had one person where you want that, 880 01:14:47,480 --> 01:14:54,120 as well. So two people on it. But I think we're allowed three slots. We've got six slots. We've got, we've got. 881 01:14:54,120 --> 01:15:00,120 So I'm going to make sure that we've got all four of them. That's the number of slots that they're aware of. 882 01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:16,000 Work people and that they're even so that. So I spoke to Commissioner Jones and he has said that he would let us know in the next day, this man's schedule and piece of wear of the four people that Mary Mary Kay had appointed. Right, right. 883 01:15:16,000 --> 01:15:23,000 Thank you very much. I'm also concerned that as we work on. 884 01:15:23,000 --> 01:15:26,000 It's the next social. 885 01:15:26,000 --> 01:15:37,000 And then the hotels after that, which I think are on district one, that we need to start looking and preparing, budgeting, figuring where the money is going to come from. 886 01:15:37,000 --> 01:15:44,000 For those folks that are living in the hotels as well and that. 887 01:15:44,000 --> 01:15:58,000 Does any of that work we can do before those hotels are closed down and moving folks out or at least getting ready for them so that it's not a fire drill that night at 10 p.m. 888 01:15:58,000 --> 01:16:06,000 to try to find tons for those people because we know they're there. We know they're at the hotel. 889 01:16:06,000 --> 01:16:17,000 We know that the folks that we some of the folks that we had at the Howard Johnson's just moved into another one that's just as bad if not worse. 890 01:16:17,000 --> 01:16:22,000 And so hopefully we don't we can just move on one time. 891 01:16:22,000 --> 01:16:30,000 And if we can start working with them, then perhaps there are the ones that we start with the monthly income. 892 01:16:30,000 --> 01:16:37,000 You know, and start addressing that and get them out of there before the crisis. 893 01:16:37,000 --> 01:16:39,000 Close it. Sure. 894 01:16:39,000 --> 01:16:41,000 Anyone else with a question? 895 01:16:41,000 --> 01:16:43,000 We've got one more item. 896 01:16:43,000 --> 01:16:45,000 Anybody else? 897 01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:46,000 Mr. Cityman? 898 01:16:46,000 --> 01:16:47,000 Thank you, Mayor. 899 01:16:47,000 --> 01:16:51,000 I would say there's a reason I wanted both of these together. 900 01:16:51,000 --> 01:16:55,000 So I would challenge you as we've purchased a retreat. 901 01:16:55,000 --> 01:16:58,000 If you had thinking, then I would start it out. 902 01:16:58,000 --> 01:17:03,000 I can tell you next week when you listen to our but longer range of things. 903 01:17:03,000 --> 01:17:08,000 This model, these two models together do not are not a sustainable model. 904 01:17:08,000 --> 01:17:10,000 They're not just needs you to know that. 905 01:17:10,000 --> 01:17:12,000 And so we've got to make some decisions. 906 01:17:12,000 --> 01:17:14,000 Some longer range of citizens. 907 01:17:14,000 --> 01:17:16,000 I will say this. 908 01:17:16,000 --> 01:17:18,000 We have got phenomenal staff. 909 01:17:18,000 --> 01:17:22,000 I know that everybody's passionate about making sure that we're taking care of folks. 910 01:17:22,000 --> 01:17:27,000 But the reality is we've got to make some decisions about how we position ourselves as a city. 911 01:17:27,000 --> 01:17:33,000 So that we can be more long range longer range sustainable in providing services. 912 01:17:33,000 --> 01:17:34,000 You just said something. 913 01:17:34,000 --> 01:17:35,000 I got to talk my head. 914 01:17:35,000 --> 01:17:37,000 I don't want to put it out there. 915 01:17:37,000 --> 01:17:41,000 And it's been here about how we utilize our space. 916 01:17:41,000 --> 01:17:42,000 Life will take. 917 01:17:42,000 --> 01:17:44,000 Can we be a better part of the different ways. 918 01:17:44,000 --> 01:17:48,000 So I just tried to be prepared to have those discussions. 919 01:17:48,000 --> 01:17:49,000 As we think. 920 01:17:49,000 --> 01:17:51,000 How we position ourselves with that partners. 921 01:17:51,000 --> 01:17:54,000 Also, I want to do more often this one thing too. 922 01:17:54,000 --> 01:17:56,000 I know we have a lot of work sessions. 923 01:17:56,000 --> 01:17:57,000 We've got a lot of conversations going on. 924 01:17:57,000 --> 01:18:00,000 It's something when I talk to my counterpart. 925 01:18:01,000 --> 01:18:06,000 I think the new on this task force director as well as the. 926 01:18:06,000 --> 01:18:16,000 Under his counterpart with the county is going to do a work session for hot points council at some point about what those models look like and what the kind of positions are. 927 01:18:16,000 --> 01:18:25,000 So that will be a great time also for us to kind of have some question and answer from them and listen to what their long range plans are. 928 01:18:25,000 --> 01:18:26,000 So. 929 01:18:26,000 --> 01:18:28,000 If we don't have a lot of of welcome. 930 01:18:28,000 --> 01:18:29,000 That's okay. 931 01:18:29,000 --> 01:18:30,000 Yeah, that that's okay. 932 01:18:30,000 --> 01:18:32,000 And thank you for your help. 933 01:18:32,000 --> 01:18:34,000 You're here. 934 01:18:34,000 --> 01:18:37,000 So I'm like, 935 01:18:37,000 --> 01:18:38,000 I'm sorry. 936 01:18:38,000 --> 01:18:40,000 I'm going to do a. 937 01:18:40,000 --> 01:18:41,000 And I'm going. 938 01:18:41,000 --> 01:18:42,000 Or, 939 01:18:42,000 --> 01:18:44,000 but this is a matter of what doesn't come out. 940 01:18:44,000 --> 01:18:46,000 It's just a matter of what doesn't come out. 941 01:18:46,000 --> 01:18:49,000 It's a matter of what isn't happened. 942 01:18:49,000 --> 01:18:53,000 It's a matter of what's going on. 943 01:18:53,000 --> 01:18:55,520 Just give them a forecast. 944 01:18:55,520 --> 01:19:00,240 I think earlier, Tanya had a question about working with the Legislative agenda, I told 945 01:19:00,240 --> 01:19:04,520 that you could have already been working with other departments in receiving information. 946 01:19:04,520 --> 01:19:08,520 Make sure we need some of the deadlines, some of the things that I'm just wanted to hear from you. 947 01:19:08,520 --> 01:19:09,520 Yes. 948 01:19:09,520 --> 01:19:15,640 So I don't know if you remember, but probably, probably back in October, I started asking 949 01:19:15,640 --> 01:19:21,480 departments to send me their legislative agenda priority matters, and we're trying to get 950 01:19:21,480 --> 01:19:22,480 this done. 951 01:19:22,480 --> 01:19:28,880 We're actually in the end of the year, but nevertheless, I'm getting updates about legislative 952 01:19:28,880 --> 01:19:29,880 priorities. 953 01:19:29,880 --> 01:19:35,960 We're going to be going to join in with ACM and Aliva, and we're going to narrow those down 954 01:19:35,960 --> 01:19:41,920 probably to three or three to five priorities that Council will approve, and then we 955 01:19:41,920 --> 01:19:45,960 will call the delegation in and pinch it to them. 956 01:19:45,960 --> 01:19:50,360 And at the top of the list, probably housing, we're talking about transit, we're talking 957 01:19:50,360 --> 01:19:57,200 about infrastructure, gears, things, not only are on the needs of the city, but also are on 958 01:19:57,200 --> 01:20:05,240 the needs of the world games, Twinkly Nine, but also their earmarks, the earmark of the 959 01:20:05,240 --> 01:20:12,040 earmark of the year is starting to get better, it will close rapidly if Council wants us to 960 01:20:12,040 --> 01:20:13,040 run steps. 961 01:20:13,040 --> 01:20:20,360 But if you always certainly can, if not, we'll pitch for earmarks to see where we land on that. 962 01:20:20,360 --> 01:20:28,440 I think I sent something out or try to send something out that we got a million from Representative 963 01:20:28,440 --> 01:20:29,440 McDowell. 964 01:20:29,440 --> 01:20:36,120 I think that's for water resources, or water resources. 965 01:20:36,120 --> 01:20:44,480 We've got Lisa work with our federal lobbyist checking into some things, and our government 966 01:20:44,480 --> 01:20:51,720 just opened up, I believe it was yesterday, with the passing of their appropriations and things 967 01:20:51,720 --> 01:20:54,840 of those opportunities should be open up. 968 01:20:54,840 --> 01:21:01,040 Our state still does not have a budget, but hopefully sooner than later it will come, and so 969 01:21:01,040 --> 01:21:02,040 it will get that. 970 01:21:02,120 --> 01:21:09,040 I'm trying to have something to the communications team that March, early March, and so 971 01:21:09,040 --> 01:21:14,120 we should be bringing something to you all soon to get approval. 972 01:21:14,120 --> 01:21:27,320 I'd like us to also, I think, at the Housest, to also focus on Senator Burgers, new committee 973 01:21:27,320 --> 01:21:30,640 on property taxes. 974 01:21:30,720 --> 01:21:40,280 This was a hot topic at the NCLM meeting today, and there is a concentrated effort in 975 01:21:40,280 --> 01:21:49,600 the Senate to eliminate property taxes, or to require that worth reevaluations that you 976 01:21:49,600 --> 01:21:55,160 cannot, you must go revenue neutral. 977 01:21:55,160 --> 01:22:04,440 It's a huge problem for cities of all sizes, but the concept of taking 60% of our revenue 978 01:22:04,440 --> 01:22:11,800 away, and the city still being able to exist, and there is a big push for it. 979 01:22:11,800 --> 01:22:23,840 It's election season, and it sells in some communities, and it sounds great until you realize 980 01:22:23,920 --> 01:22:26,240 there's a huge takeaway property taxes. 981 01:22:26,240 --> 01:22:36,240 There is no money for fire, for housing, for police, for road infrastructure. 982 01:22:36,240 --> 01:22:43,680 Those kinds of things, and that is a hot topic with the state, and we've got to be proactive 983 01:22:43,680 --> 01:22:53,440 in terms of our relationships with our representatives, and at the state level, and we're 984 01:22:53,440 --> 01:23:01,840 going to have to take it at the role in helping our state legislator to know what that means 985 01:23:01,840 --> 01:23:09,920 if the state, if the legislature takes away property taxes, what does that mean to our city, 986 01:23:09,920 --> 01:23:14,920 and what impact will it have, and it's very concerned. 987 01:23:15,240 --> 01:23:20,760 Anybody can, in that scenario that you heard today, that draft, or a bit might have been, 988 01:23:20,760 --> 01:23:25,320 whether you're talking about requiring mispalcies to be revenue neutral. 989 01:23:27,320 --> 01:23:31,400 Where do they provide for annual pay increases? 990 01:23:33,720 --> 01:23:34,440 A couple of these. 991 01:23:34,440 --> 01:23:35,640 Or is that by cuts? 992 01:23:35,640 --> 01:23:40,360 We're cutting services to pay increases, so then it's a chase to the bottom. 993 01:23:40,360 --> 01:23:47,720 It's a chase to the bottom, is the way it's looking, and they think that's reasonable. 994 01:23:49,720 --> 01:23:56,520 Also cutting the corporate tax, so we'll be zero by 2030 or something very close. 995 01:23:56,520 --> 01:24:02,760 This is a national trend, eliminating property taxes, it's a national trend, however, 996 01:24:03,400 --> 01:24:08,600 North Carolina is different from many of the states where this is seriously being considered, 997 01:24:08,600 --> 01:24:18,360 because here in general property taxes make up roughly on average 60% of the budget, 998 01:24:18,360 --> 01:24:22,920 different units of power, and it's there different percents, but in some of the states that are 999 01:24:22,920 --> 01:24:31,720 eliminating property tax, it only makes up 17 or 20% of the budget. It doesn't make up a 60% 1000 01:24:31,720 --> 01:24:43,880 under budget. When I get the hard copy of the power point slides, I'm happy to share those with 1001 01:24:43,880 --> 01:24:50,280 everybody, though, should be getting to us today, or the next couple days at some point, but 1002 01:24:52,440 --> 01:24:58,920 yeah, it's because the state controls the sales tax rate we can chart, and it's not like we can jump 1003 01:24:58,920 --> 01:25:06,040 the sales tax rate up. The other thing that they're doing along with this, that may go hand in hand, 1004 01:25:06,040 --> 01:25:12,520 it is eliminating more types of properties that don't have to pay property tax. 1005 01:25:13,480 --> 01:25:19,480 I would add a little bit of color to that, I just recently had some conversations with other 1006 01:25:19,480 --> 01:25:28,280 city managers in California where this has been in place for a while, and so the consequence is, of course, 1007 01:25:28,280 --> 01:25:33,640 we've got to continue to services as a municipal government. So it puts local government 1008 01:25:33,640 --> 01:25:40,200 set of positions or cities as a position that you tax, whether it's new development or your existing 1009 01:25:40,200 --> 01:25:48,280 residence, and in much more stringent way. So I think we all know what that leads to. So you end up having 1010 01:25:48,280 --> 01:25:56,120 spaces where only those who can thrive are in spaces and then the rest are just left to deal with what 1011 01:25:56,120 --> 01:26:01,960 they have. So I think there are a lot of significant challenges that they would create for us, 1012 01:26:01,960 --> 01:26:09,480 I would say that. We're talking about some kind of combination of user fees or road taxes. So here on 1013 01:26:09,480 --> 01:26:15,880 friendly or random or summit, you have a toll booth, and you click the money that you lost to your 1014 01:26:15,880 --> 01:26:22,600 taxes. Yes, or you know, a new development comes. So that new development will be based on 1015 01:26:23,560 --> 01:26:29,560 those residents that live in that new development, knowing they're going to pay an additional 1016 01:26:29,560 --> 01:26:38,200 tax to receiving services that they've received on a regular basis. It's not here, but when you look 1017 01:26:38,200 --> 01:26:48,440 at some of what's being contemplated in terms of eliminating tax property taxes for all seniors, 1018 01:26:48,440 --> 01:26:54,120 all veterans, all this, all that or the other category, all businesses, and it's one of the, 1019 01:26:54,120 --> 01:26:59,960 you know, something that's being proposed, that just puts more and more of the tax burden on the residents. 1020 01:27:01,480 --> 01:27:06,440 So their tax rates just have to continue going up to be able to afford police, fire, 1021 01:27:07,560 --> 01:27:16,280 roads, etc. It was kind of eye-opening for me. You know, I had heard the rumblings of a 1022 01:27:16,280 --> 01:27:22,840 eliminating of some states eliminating property taxes. I didn't think it was really serious for 1023 01:27:22,840 --> 01:27:30,680 North Carolina, but apparently there's a big question for it, and I can tell you that Senator Burger is 1024 01:27:30,680 --> 01:27:39,880 very much in favor of it. He is in a very difficult race, and you know, that may be this may 1025 01:27:39,880 --> 01:27:45,720 become an election issue for this year. So I think when we're talking about when we're in the 1026 01:27:45,720 --> 01:27:51,640 community, we need to talk about the fact when people are saying, yeah, eliminate property taxes. 1027 01:27:52,840 --> 01:27:57,720 Okay, what does that really mean? I think we need to understand that. We need to have a unified 1028 01:27:57,720 --> 01:28:04,600 voice in how we deal with this issue sooner rather than later. Yeah, thank you. When it comes to the latest 1029 01:28:04,600 --> 01:28:09,640 slide of the agenda. Thank you for the information, yeah. Because then everybody, everything would be 1030 01:28:09,640 --> 01:28:21,000 famous. No, no, no, no. That's not it. No, no, no. All right, we've finished. Any questions, any further questions? 1031 01:28:22,280 --> 01:28:26,280 Here and none, I would accept the motion for adjourned. What's a judge, you're on? 1032 01:28:26,280 --> 01:28:36,280 Yes, thank you very much. Thank you very much. Thank you.
