01:27:30,428 --> 01:27:33,068 there are total of fifty five actions identified in the 53 01:27:33,068 --> 01:27:35,858 work plan for the various teams and I won't go 54 01:27:35,858 --> 01:27:37,968 through all the actions the work plan tonight but I 55 01:27:37,968 --> 01:27:41,038 will highlight some of the key actions 56 01:27:41,038 --> 01:27:45,498 the next slide please 57 01:27:45,498 --> 01:27:48,158 so under the housing theme 58 01:27:48,158 --> 01:27:52,048 the housing challenges we're pretty much mentioned within each theme 59 01:27:52,048 --> 01:27:55,048 and topic discussed with the task force in this just 60 01:27:55,048 --> 01:27:58,708 reinforces the importance of addressing the housing challenges that are 61 01:27:58,708 --> 01:28:01,188 currently faced throughout the county 62 01:28:01,188 --> 01:28:03,808 so some of the key actions identified under the housing 63 01:28:03,808 --> 01:28:07,138 team one is of course continue to move forward with 64 01:28:07,138 --> 01:28:10,348 the actions identified in the housing action plan this will 65 01:28:10,348 --> 01:28:13,108 be done in collaboration with local is a polity such 66 01:28:13,108 --> 01:28:16,048 as ... the city builds sounds in order to help 67 01:28:16,048 --> 01:28:19,088 address the for about housing challenges 68 01:28:19,088 --> 01:28:22,478 under the housing action plan this includes utilizing the affordable 69 01:28:22,478 --> 01:28:26,198 housing fund that was established by county council to support 70 01:28:26,198 --> 01:28:30,448 future county housing builds a nonprofit housing builds 71 01:28:30,448 --> 01:28:34,058 creating a housing surplus land banks by identifying public owned 72 01:28:34,058 --> 01:28:37,858 lands that are suitable to support future affordable and attainable 73 01:28:37,858 --> 01:28:41,418 housing builds and getting those land shovel ready and then 74 01:28:41,418 --> 01:28:44,078 offering those lands through a can ... the comedian per 75 01:28:44,078 --> 01:28:46,808 plane program 76 01:28:46,808 --> 01:28:50,428 a promoting the committee proclaimed centers to encourage more affordable 77 01:28:50,428 --> 01:28:52,798 and attainable housing 78 01:28:52,798 --> 01:28:56,808 implementing re color gray policies invisible official plans and zoning 79 01:28:56,808 --> 01:29:00,518 bylaws to pres on those lands to allow for medium 80 01:29:00,518 --> 01:29:03,648 and higher density housing types 81 01:29:03,648 --> 01:29:05,968 ends ... the so those are just to name a 82 01:29:05,968 --> 01:29:08,818 few of the actions of the housing action plan ... 83 01:29:08,818 --> 01:29:11,208 there's definitely more actions are identified in there and like 84 01:29:11,208 --> 01:29:14,618 I said we're moving forward with in collaboration with Lucas 85 01:29:14,618 --> 01:29:17,908 polities to implement those actions 86 01:29:17,908 --> 01:29:20,788 some other actions under the housing team identified by the 87 01:29:20,788 --> 01:29:25,828 task force includes identifying great opportunities and other financial incentive 88 01:29:25,828 --> 01:29:28,728 resources for retrofit programs 89 01:29:28,728 --> 01:29:31,678 ... because part of the affordable housing challenge also includes 90 01:29:31,678 --> 01:29:35,168 maintaining the costs of the housing such as the rising 91 01:29:35,168 --> 01:29:38,558 utility costs that we're seeing a large part of the 92 01:29:38,558 --> 01:29:41,438 county's oldest housing stock is in both Hanover and own 93 01:29:41,438 --> 01:29:44,978 sounds an older housing stock generally means that the houses 94 01:29:44,978 --> 01:29:48,078 are less energy efficient and therefore the utility costs are 95 01:29:48,078 --> 01:29:51,488 typically higher and that is why a hosing retrofit program 96 01:29:51,488 --> 01:29:54,358 was identified as an action by the task force to 97 01:29:54,358 --> 01:29:58,498 help reduce some of those ... home energy costs 98 01:29:58,498 --> 01:30:01,588 another key action of the housing team is creating more 99 01:30:01,588 --> 01:30:05,828 supportive and transitional housing opportunities and as we know we 100 01:30:05,828 --> 01:30:09,578 need safe and stable temporary housing for those experiencing homelessness 101 01:30:09,578 --> 01:30:12,938 in our community and based on this need the county 102 01:30:12,938 --> 01:30:15,758 is currently renovating a building that was recently acquired an 103 01:30:15,758 --> 01:30:19,048 own sound to create support of housing there's also the 104 01:30:19,048 --> 01:30:22,008 wellness a treatment center in the former baby school that 105 01:30:22,008 --> 01:30:25,618 is being proposed by Gruber's health services so it'll be 106 01:30:25,618 --> 01:30:29,558 important continue to explore further opportunities for creating supportive housing 107 01:30:29,558 --> 01:30:32,408 in our communities 108 01:30:32,408 --> 01:30:36,088 under the poverty committee safety and wellbeing team so the 109 01:30:36,088 --> 01:30:40,248 key actions include supporting our community service providers through Bruce 110 01:30:40,248 --> 01:30:44,148 gray data information sharing collaborative ... this would be through 111 01:30:44,148 --> 01:30:48,198 sharing of data and information ... to find efficiencies and 112 01:30:48,198 --> 01:30:50,748 enhance service delivery 113 01:30:50,748 -->

some other key actions under the policing theme for 135 01:32:04,288 --> 01:32:09,248 example is reviewing the funding model for providing court security 136 01:32:09,248 --> 01:32:13,728 at the

01:32:34,778 news 143 01:32:34,778 --> 01:32:38,248 and another a key action under policing is further developing 144 01:32:38,248 --> 01:32:42,308 and supporting crime prevention initiatives versus reactive care and so 145 01:32:42,308 --> 01:32:44,318 this will be queue in terms of moving forward the 146 01:32:44,318 --> 01:32:47,598 actions identified in the community safety and well being

includes working with 198 01:35:46,968 --> 01:35:51,318 own town staff and would simply services ... first to 199 01:35:51,318 --> 01:35:55,198 look at ... funding models of other superior courts and 200 01:35:55,198 --> 01:35:58,208 rural areas just to see if they're running into similar 201 01:35:58,208 --> 01:36:03,098 challenges and then to collectively advocate to the province for 202 01:36:03,098 --> 01:36:06,478 a change in the funding model structure ... hopefully that 203 01:36:06,518 --> 01:36:10,018 hopefully to find something a solution that's more equitable ... 204 01:36:10,018 --> 01:36:13,158 because it it right now as you noted ... the 205 01:36:13,508 --> 01:36:16,098 court security costs are picked up by the whole Smith's 206 01:36:16,098 --> 01:36:20,088 apology and in some cases the hostess polity is providing 207 01:36:20,118 --> 01:36:26,508 courts ... cords ... the for for a wider audience 208 01:36:26,508 --> 01:36:29,868 than just of the hostess of polity so it's trying 209 01:36:29,868 --> 01:36:32,768 to advocate to the province to look for a more 210 01:36:33,148 --> 01:36:37,368 equitable funding strict structure in order to address those court 211 01:36:37,368 --> 01:36:40,338 security costs just to make it fair for those host 212 01:36:40,338 --> 01:36:44,028 miss polities ... that are carrying the the bulk of 213 01:36:44,028 --> 01:36:47,598 sites that took those costs as it currently stands so 214 01:36:47,908 --> 01:36:50,038 that's some of the next steps are identified in the 215 01:36:50,038 --> 01:36:53,168 work plan obviously if that is not successful then we'll 216 01:36:53,168 --> 01:36:56,408 have to look at other options ... in that's of 217 01:36:56,408 --> 01:36:59,818 course working with city staff as wells county council in 218 01:36:59,818 --> 01:37:02,508 terms of trying to explore what's what's a more active 219 01:37:02,508 --> 01:37:06,358 role models to to help support those still scored security 220 01:37:06,358 --> 01:37:10,558 costs so Randy if I could your worship same subject 221 01:37:10,558 --> 01:37:12,888 what's the time frame on that like is that even 222 01:37:12,888 --> 01:37:16,918 started yet looking at at what other municipalities are are 223 01:37:16,918 --> 01:37:21,938 looking at or where we have terms of time for 224 01:37:21,938 --> 01:37:24,718 in terms of time frame I think that's something that 225 01:37:24,718 --> 01:37:27,068 will be working with and trying to identify through that 226 01:37:27,068 --> 01:37:30,458 prioritization exercises to look at at some of the key 227 01:37:30,458 --> 01:37:33,178 actions that we need to move for with sooner rather 228 01:37:33,178 --> 01:37:35,988 than later and so we'll be working with us the 229 01:37:35,988 --> 01:37:39,328 city staff and other look miss polities through that that 230 01:37:39,328 --> 01:37:42,308 exercise to ... to move that forward so I don't 231 01:37:42,308 --> 01:37:44,978 have a exact time frame but that's at this stage 232 01:37:44,978 --> 01:37:47,988 but we're happy to work with ... city staff for 233 01:37:47,988 --> 01:37:51,928 and on trying to at least explore if other miscarriages 234 01:37:51,928 --> 01:37:55,288 are finding similar challenges and then moving for with ... 235 01:37:55,318 --> 01:37:59,588 trade advocates the province through various cable channels and other 236 01:37:59,588 --> 01:38:02,338 channels that we may be able to access to to 237 01:38:02,338 --> 01:38:05,958 look for more equitable solution 238 01:38:05,958 --> 01:38:08,668 Mr Randy I know ... we've we've taken a kick 239 01:38:08,668 --> 01:38:10,978 this cannot cumple times and it came down to sort 240 01:38:10,978 --> 01:38:13,708 of awestruck fill in so many other of the municipalities 241 01:38:13,708 --> 01:38:17,088 are regional so it is spread across a we're very 242 01:38:17,088 --> 01:38:20,258 few of municipalities and had trouble getting the upper provinces 243 01:38:20,258 --> 01:38:24,078 attention one of these days John go ahead 244 01:38:24,078 --> 01:38:27,198 thank you a Randy you're one of the most astute 245 01:38:27,198 --> 01:38:30,908 civil servants I've met ... hardworking I don't see on 246 01:38:30,908 --> 01:38:34,108 the golf course so I think that explains something 247 01:38:34,108 --> 01:38:37,058 but so any got broad shoulders so I want to 248 01:38:37,058 --> 01:38:38,788 push back a bit if I could K. when I 249 01:38:38,788 --> 01:38:40,778 read this report 250 01:38:40,778 --> 01:38:45,228 I saw fifty five action plans and or action steps 251 01:38:45,578 --> 01:38:48,268 I remember prime minister Harper one saying of ... his 252 01:38:48,268 --> 01:38:51,958 predecessor prime minister Martin that if you have seventy five 253 01:38:51,958 --> 01:38:55,588 priorities and maybe even two hundred you have not 254 01:38:55,588 --> 01:38:57,518 so I guess what I'd like from you and if 255 01:38:57,518 --> 01:39:00,248 you can't give it now that's fine but when I 256 01:39:00,248 --> 01:39:03,848 read these reports it often they read about talking about 257 01:39:03,848 --> 01:39:06,518 talking about talking and that's not to insult you and 258 01:39:06,518 --> 01:39:08,868 I know you would take it that way with that 259 01:39:08,868 --> 01:39:12,698 as background can you identify maybe two or three examples 260 01:39:12,698 --> 01:39:16,138 of low hanging fruit that you think we can jump 261 01:39:16,138 --> 01:39:19,148 out with respect to this task force and can you 262 01:39:19,148 --> 01:39:22,278 identify maybe two or three really hard nuts to crack 263 01:39:22,308 --> 01:39:24,428 like give us some 264 01:39:24,428 --> 01:39:26,838 make it a little more vivid and concrete if you 265 01:39:26,838 --> 01:39:33,228 could I hope that's a fair request 266 01:39:33,228 --> 01:39:34,948 thank you for that question that I might not be 267 01:39:34,948 --> 01:39:37,828 able to ... identify right off the top of my 268 01:39:37,828 --> 01:39:40,228 head in terms of some of the key ones that 269 01:39:40,228 --> 01:39:43,538 I I'd recommend that we focus on and that's that's 270 01:39:43,538 --> 01:39:45,678 why some of the next steps are to do that 271 01:39:45,678 --> 01:39:50,478 prioritization exercise we recognize that that's we have been there 272 01:39:50,478 --> 01:39:54,038 for last two to three years been talking a lot 273 01:39:54,088 --> 01:39:57,188 about the various challenges and we think we have some 274 01:39:57,238 --> 01:39:59,218 ... ... 275 01:39:59,218 --> 01:40:03,598 excellent solutions to move for with those ... those to 276 01:40:03,598 --> 01:40:05,878 try to address some of those challenges so the next 277 01:40:05,878 --> 01:40:09,628 step is to let's let's actually identify what that those 278 01:40:09,628 --> 01:40:12,408 low hanging fruit are what is the common alignment with 279 01:40:12,408 --> 01:40:15,868 those various plans strategies and where should we be focusing 280 01:40:15,868 --> 01:40:19,638 our in some cases limited resources ... in order to 281 01:40:19,638 --> 01:40:22,268 get the best bang for Buck so that's exactly the 282 01:40:22,268 --> 01:40:25,838 exercise that we are planning to do ... I don't 283 01:40:25,838 --> 01:40:28,318 want to pre judge what the exercise will look like 284 01:40:28,318 --> 01:40:31,848 because we need to have those discussions with Lucas apologies 285 01:40:32,178 --> 01:40:34,948 as well as other community partners in terms of trying 286 01:40:34,948 --> 01:40:37,618 to identify with those low hanging fruit are but I'd 287 01:40:37,618 --> 01:40:39,298 be happy to come back to you in a couple 288 01:40:39,298 --> 01:40:42,058 months time and say this is what we think are 289 01:40:42,058 --> 01:40:45,268 the those low hanging fruit and and we want to 290 01:40:45,338 --> 01:40:47,808 work collectively to move for with these actions because we 291 01:40:47,808 --> 01:40:50,408 think work we're gonna get off of the best bang 292 01:40:50,408 --> 01:40:53,858 for Buck that that aligns hopefully with a number of 293 01:40:53,858 --> 01:40:57,848 actions and strategies and and hopefully will 294 01:40:57,848 --> 01:41:00,708 not to use another pardon kill multiple birds with one 295 01:41:00,708 --> 01:41:03,768 stone so to speak so that's where ... that's the 296 01:41:03,768 --> 01:41:06,788 exercise we wanna take next and we look forward to 297 01:41:06,788 --> 01:41:10,488 working with the city staff and city council ... through 298 01:41:10,488 --> 01:41:13,548 that exercise going forward 299 01:41:13,548 --> 01:41:15,978 thank you counsel Thomas 300 01:41:15,978 --> 01:41:18,598 thank you worship in thanks Randy for that presentation I 301 01:41:18,598 --> 01:41:22,428 think I can actually partly answer councillor timings question while 302 01:41:22,428 --> 01:41:25,688 at the same time asking my own question under social 303 01:41:25,688 --> 01:41:28,938 services you have the key point explore the creation of 304 01:41:28,938 --> 01:41:32,768 community hubs one stop shops to excess community service as 305 01:41:32,768 --> 01:41:35,368 well this has been going on now for some time 306 01:41:35,368 --> 01:41:38,268 and both hand over and ... and sound every second 307 01:41:38,268 --> 01:41:40,668 week in on sound and I think everybody has been 308 01:41:40,698 --> 01:41:45,398 absolutely staggered by the turnouts at these ... clinics that 309 01:41:45,398 --> 01:41:47,898 they're holding right now the farmers market and I know 310 01:41:47,898 --> 01:41:50,698 in Hanover they've been blown away by the number of 311 01:41:50,698 --> 01:41:53,798 people turning out so my question is ... when you 312 01:41:53,798 --> 01:41:57,388 talk about exploring the creation are you talking about a 313 01:41:57,388 --> 01:42:00,618 more permanent set up or are we talking about a 314 01:42:00,618 --> 01:42:04,288 more frequent temporary set up in different locations just what's 315 01:42:04,288 --> 01:42:08,218 the vision there 316 01:42:08,218 --> 01:42:11,728 another great question and three Mayor Boddy I think it's 317 01:42:11,938 --> 01:42:16,018 probably a mixture of both ... we want to obviously 318 01:42:16,018 --> 01:42:20,148 take advantage of our existing permit locations it might be 319 01:42:20,148 --> 01:42:23,388 just a matter of sharing information that we collectively have 320 01:42:23,588 --> 01:42:25,338 so that 321 01:42:25,338 --> 01:42:29,948 depending on who's who's going to whatever eight existing office 322 01:42:30,198 --> 01:42:34,258 that they will have access to a very separation from 323 01:42:34,608 --> 01:42:37,038 ... not only the county services that are provided to 324 01:42:37,038 --> 01:42:40,578 the local missile services provided and vice versa ... so 325 01:42:40,578 --> 01:42:44,148 I think it's utilizing our existing permit locations more efficiently 326 01:42:44,148 --> 01:42:47,028 and I think the second is yeah and you you 327 01:42:47,028 --> 01:42:49,778 describes ... some of the temperate models that have had 328 01:42:49,778 --> 01:42:53,028 such great success we want to enhance the build on 329 01:42:53,028 --> 01:42:56,648 those temperamental we want to look for those opportunities to 330 01:42:56,648 --> 01:42:59,368 be able to provide services by going to where the 331 01:42:59,368 --> 01:43:01,688 people are already at 332 01:43:01,688 --> 01:43:05,418 meeting them at their place where they're already residing or 333 01:43:05,418 --> 01:43:09,118 in some cases where they're already gathering and we want 334 01:43:09,118 --> 01:43:12,718 to be able to provides quick and easy access to 335 01:43:12,718 --> 01:43:16,858 those services and so the the the ... the farmers 336 01:43:16,858 --> 01:43:19,558 market and some of the other locations where we've set 337 01:43:19,558 --> 01:43:23,748 up those those more about response and ... areas have 338 01:43:23,748 --> 01:43:26,578 been fantastic and so I think that's where we wanna 339 01:43:26,578 --> 01:43:29,448 look at a model where we're providing those services again 340 01:43:29,448 --> 01:43:32,768 where people are already a gathering and and meeting them 341 01:43:33,588 --> 01:43:36,198 where they're already add so we can provide those and 342 01:43:36,228 --> 01:43:39,098 access to a wide variety of services ... through those 343 01:43:39,288 --> 01:43:43,078 those ... mobile units 344 01:43:43,078 --> 01:43:45,638 can anyone else 345 01:43:45,638 --> 01:43:49,578 seeing no o'carroll sorry go ahead customer in 346 01:43:49,578 --> 01:43:51,958 three year worship to Mr sure Sir thank you so 347 01:43:51,958 --> 01:43:56,718 much for the presentation ... housing is a key concern 348 01:43:56,718 --> 01:43:59,598 in our community and I think you mentioned you know 349 01:43:59,598 --> 01:44:02,658 there's it's been a few years and there's planning and 350 01:44:02,658 --> 01:44:04,878 planning and planning 351 01:44:04,878 --> 01:44:08,238 in our communities now there is more of a desperation 352 01:44:08,238 --> 01:44:12,198 and urgency so you 353 01:44:12,198 --> 01:44:17,138 hops the political concept of a priority and the community 354 01:44:17,138 --> 01:44:21,558 concept a priority is is maybe not quite in alignment 355 01:44:21,958 --> 01:44:27,538 so certainly wanted to emphasize as you go forward to 356 01:44:27,668 --> 01:44:32,448 define what you mean by prioritizing ... in relation to 357 01:44:32,448 --> 01:44:34,438 the community needs 358 01:44:34,438 --> 01:44:38,298 I know that we have different levels of government and 359 01:44:38,298 --> 01:44:40,748 different associations 360 01:44:40,748 --> 01:44:45,868 throughout many municipalities we have had reports on attainable or 361 01:44:45,868 --> 01:44:52,558 affordable housing strategies is there any intention to collate that 362 01:44:52,558 --> 01:44:56,998 information and be able to disseminate it as a municipal 363 01:44:56,998 --> 01:45:01,928 tool kit drop down menu R. I. tools that municipalities 364 01:45:01,928 --> 01:45:05,508 can choose and select from in addition to working with 365 01:45:05,508 --> 01:45:12,398 the county has there been any discussion about that 366 01:45:12,398 --> 01:45:14,008 but 367 01:45:14,008 --> 01:45:18,048 again another great question and answer you ... Mayor Boddy 368 01:45:18,578 --> 01:45:22,188 so the housing action plan that has been created through 369 01:45:22,398 --> 01:45:26,108 the affordable housing task force ... it has been shared 370 01:45:26,108 --> 01:45:29,108 with with ... with all of our local miss polities 371 01:45:29,538 --> 01:45:32,938 ... we see that as a plan that that we 372 01:45:32,938 --> 01:45:37,808 need to collectively work on together ... through coordination collaboration 373 01:45:37,808 --> 01:45:40,628 that and so with that we are working through some 374 01:45:40,628 --> 01:45:44,408 of that one is the community plan program ... that 375 01:45:44,408 --> 01:45:47,178 was a template that was set up as a tool 376 01:45:47,368 --> 01:45:50,988 to be able to incentivize not not just affordable housing 377 01:45:50,988 --> 01:45:53,478 developments but some other developments we want to encourage in 378 01:45:53,478 --> 01:45:56,658 our communities and we work collectively with our look miss 379 01:45:56,658 --> 01:46:00,908 polities to either updates committee program plans or to add 380 01:46:00,908 --> 01:46:05,528 new commuter prone plans where once hadn't existed before 381 01:46:05,528 --> 01:46:08,148 that is an example of a program where we've identified 382 01:46:08,148 --> 01:46:09,968 here's a tool 383 01:46:09,968 --> 01:46:11,878 and here's how we can work together both of the 384 01:46:11,878 --> 01:46:14,568 county and local missile levels to to move for with 385 01:46:14,568 --> 01:46:18,018 that tool I'm to me there's a number of tools 386 01:46:18,018 --> 01:46:21,118 in the county housing action plan tool box that we 387 01:46:21,118 --> 01:46:24,508 are moving for with in coordination with our locus polities 388 01:46:24,508 --> 01:46:28,088 what is updating official plan and zoning bylaw documents I 389 01:46:28,088 --> 01:46:31,358 know the city has recently updated their official plan which 390 01:46:31,358 -->

anticipate that to 814 02:10:37,508 --> 02:10:41,818 be a problem it's it's just a formality 815 02:10:41,818 --> 02:10:44,078 double check 816 02:10:44,078 --> 02:10:46,988 Deputy alert would be ...

02:13:54,598 addiction task force and during the very first meeting I 879 02:13:54,598 --> 02:13:57,758 had suggested a change in the curriculum in our schools 880 02:13:58,468 --> 02:14:00,918 beginning in grade seven or eight in an effort to 881 02:14:00,918 --> 02:14:04,408 educate our kids on the dangers of smoking cigarettes chewing 882 02:14:04,408 --> 02:14:05,968 tobacco 883

we have far too many children brought into this world 889 02:14:23,498 --> 02:14:26,588 and being raised with one parent or growing up witnessing 890 02:14:26,588 --> 02:14:31,598 addiction first hand

02:16:30,498 fruition 925 02:16:30,498 --> 02:16:33,358 MPP bill Walker has already talked to the minister of 926 02:16:33,358 --> 02:16:37,278 education about the really the resolution and received a very 927 02:16:37,558 --> 02:16:40,878 positive response I look at this is a game changer 928 02:16:40,908 --> 02:16:46,578 an opportunity to fill a void for our children 929 02:16:46,578 --> 02:16:49,878 my second item the climate change action plan was presented 930 02:16:49,878 --> 02:16:53,808 to county council engagement of the plan was overview it 931 02:16:53,808 --> 02:17:00,658 involved online surveys virtual meetings written submissions and online gateman 932 02:17:00,658 --> 02:17:03,828 there is discussion on the declaration of an emergency which 933 02:17:03,828 --> 02:17:08,568 resulted in gray county council declaring a climate change emergency 934 02:17:09,178 --> 02:17:12,418 it was noted that municipalities are well positioned to respond 935 02:17:12,418 --> 02:17:16,548 to climate change in that over fifty percent greenhouse gas 936 02:17:16,548 --> 02:17:20,628 emissions are under the direct influence of local government according 937 02:17:20,628 --> 02:17:23,898 to the federation of Canadian municipalities 938 02:17:23,898 --> 02:17:27,208 staff have identified the grey county is on track to 939 02:17:27,208 --> 02:17:31,348 achieve net zero by two thousand forty six 940 02:17:31,348 --> 02:17:34,268 with that I would ask city manager Tim Simmonds to 941 02:17:34,268 --> 02:17:37,678 set up a presentation from Greene County staff laying out 942 02:17:37,678 --> 02:17:42,198 the action plan including emission reduction targets I would also 943 02:17:42,198 --> 02:17:46,178 ask the report will follow including the declaration of a 944 02:17:46,178 --> 02:17:50,388 climate emergency I suggest declaration not in the sense of 945 02:17:50,388 --> 02:17:54,498 panic or overreaction but as a solid commitment to follow 946 02:17:54,498 --> 02:17:57,138 the lead of grey county and do our part in 947 02:17:57,138 --> 02:18:00,508 achieving net zero by two thousand fifty this will give 948 02:18:00,508 --> 02:18:02,628 our council members lots of time to think about the 949 02:18:02,628 --> 02:18:05,648 process with that you worship I would never see that 950 02:18:05,808 --> 02:18:11,048 verbal reports 951 02:18:11,048 --> 02:18:13,258 I'm 952 02:18:13,258 --> 02:18:15,408 the Springfield is asking if it's a notice of motion 953 02:18:15,408 --> 02:18:18,918 but I I'm youth think it should be ... it's 954 02:18:18,918 --> 02:18:21,288 a notice of motion to receive 955 02:18:21,288 --> 02:18:24,578 however with regard to the report there was a report 956 02:18:24,578 --> 02:18:28,078 that was on the agenda for the operations committee that 957 02:18:28,078 --> 02:18:30,778 was tabled that will be coming back with regard to 958 02:18:30,778 --> 02:18:33,268 the climate change 959 02:18:33,268 --> 02:18:36,008 that was just 960 02:18:36,008 --> 02:18:39,988 or was it a motion 961 02:18:39,988 --> 02:18:43,448 there's no there's no motion I'm I'm simply asking for 962 02:18:43,448 --> 02:18:46,638 the city manager to do ... really what he just 963 02:18:46,638 --> 02:18:49,808 did with with ranchers are coming with the Hanover I 964 02:18:49,808 --> 02:18:53,578 own some task force report ... someone is gonna come 965 02:18:53,578 --> 02:18:57,238 from the county's county staff to do the presentation they've 966 02:18:57,238 --> 02:18:59,228 they've already done the draft one but this will be 967 02:18:59,228 --> 02:19:03,248 the final one and I'm just asking the manager a 968 02:19:03,248 --> 02:19:06,818 city manager if you bring forward a report after that 969 02:19:07,188 --> 02:19:12,468 that includes a declaration of 970 02:19:12,468 --> 02:19:13,998 do you want that is a motion then yeah I 971 02:19:13,998 --> 02:19:15,988 think if you wanna make that motion and then it's 972 02:19:15,988 --> 02:19:19,238 on the table it's clean it's straightforward and but I 973 02:19:19,238 --> 02:19:21,868 guess or or if you're giving notice perhaps we can 974 02:19:21,868 --> 02:19:23,778 do it at the next meeting might be the easiest 975 02:19:23,778 --> 02:19:25,778 because there is no notice 976 02:19:25,778 --> 02:19:27,078 so if you want to give a notice of the 977 02:19:27,078 --> 02:19:29,438 end Marianne 978 02:19:29,438 --> 02:19:32,218 could I make a motion that we waive the notice 979 02:19:32,598 --> 02:19:35,808 requirements 980 02:19:35,808 -->
