26
00:06:26.786 --> 00:06:38.563
END. AND WE ARE GOING THROUGH THIS AT THIS MEETING BECAUSE THERE IS A CHANCE AND WE'LL GO THROUGH THIS DURING THE FUNDING THAT THERE MIGHT BE A REQUEST FOR LARGER AND SO THE

27
00:06:38.563 --> 00:06:50.509
PORT IS BRINGING IT THROUGH THE HRA INSTEAD OF THE PORT COMMISSION. SO THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT IS WITH REAL ESTATE EQUITY IS THEY'RE PROPOSING A 180 UNIT DEVELOPMENT ON LYNDALE AVENUE

28
00:06:50.509 --> 00:07:00.453
BETWEEN 98TH AND 102ND OTHERWISE KNOWN AS THE FORMER WICKS AND JEWELERS SITE. IT IS TECHNICALLY A FULLY AFFORDABLE BUILDING BUT 25

29
00:07:00.453 --> 00:07:13.065
OF THE UNITS ARE THE 75 ARE 70% AMI SO THEY BE A LITTLE BIT ABOVE WHAT THE OJO REQUIRES. THEY ARE SETTING ASIDE 318 PARKING STALLS OF THAT 164

30
00:07:13.065 --> 00:07:21.340
OF THEM ARE BELOW GROUND AND THE COMMUNITY AMENITIES INCLUDE A CLUB ROOM OUTDOOR PATIO WITH GRILLING AREA PLAYGROUND AND SECURE BIKE STORAGE.

31
00:07:21.340 --> 00:07:32.418
OKAY SO THIS IS THE BREAKDOWN OF THE APARTMENTS SO THERE'S FOUR FOR THE 30% AM I AND I WON'T READ IT OUT TO YOU AND

32
00:07:32.418 --> 00:07:45.097
THAT ADDS UP TO 180 AND THIS IS KIND OF WHERE THAT LEADS US TO OUR MET COUNCIL GOALS. SO IT DOES KIND OF REACH WHAT WE'RE LIKE. IT DOES KIND OF HIT WHAT WE'RE

33
00:07:45.097 --> 00:07:56.174
DOING OR WHAT WE'RE HOPING TO MEET FOR THOSE WITH THAT AND THEN KIND OF FOR THE CONTEXT THIS BUILDING IS LOCATED JUST SOUTH OF THE LYNDALE AVENUE

34
00:07:56.174 --> 00:08:08.621
RETROFIT PLAN AND THAT IS KIND OF LIKE A VISION OF LIKE BLOOMINGTON'S DOWNTOWN AND SO THIS WILL CONNECT TO THE TRANSIT CENTER THAT'S LOCATED ON THE TOP LEFT AND THEN THE

35
00:08:08.621 --> 00:08:18.297
FESTIVAL FIELDS WHICH IS WHERE LIKE OTHER COMMERCIAL AREAS ARE AND IT'S RIGHT ACROSS FROM THE NATIVITY CHURCH AS WELL.

36
00:08:18.297 --> 00:08:30.076
AND THEN SO THE FINANCING SUMMARY THIS IS TAKEN DIRECTLY FROM THE SOURCES AND USES FROM THE DEVELOPER AND AT THE BOTTOM IS KIND OF THE DETAILS

37
00:08:30.076 --> 00:08:42.955
FOR THAT LIKE TIFF IS GOING TO BE A CONSIDERATION FOR THIS PROJECT AS WELL AND THAT'S GOING TO DEPEND ON KIND OF SOME OF THE FUNDING THAT THE DEVELOPER HAS ALREADY APPLIED FOR. THEY'VE ALREADY APPLIED FOR

38
00:08:42.955 --> 00:08:53.365
HENNEPIN COUNTY AND MET COUNCIL FUNDS TOTALING AROUND $3 MILLION. DECISIONS ON THOSE ARE COMING THIS SUMMER. SO WHAT WE ARE PROPOSING FROM THE CITY IS THAT IS IN SUPPORT

39
00:08:53.365 --> 00:09:04.877
OF THE PAY AS YOU GO NOTE OVER THE 25 YEAR LIFE OF THE DISTRICT IT'S GOING TO BE ABOUT 1.2 IN NET PRESENT VALUE OR 3 MILLION GROSS AND WE'RE SETTING ASIDE 5% OF THAT FOR

40
00:09:04.877 --> 00:09:17.356
ADMIN AND 5% FOR POOLING AND DEPENDING ON THE RESULT OF THAT 3 MILLION THAT'S ALREADY BEEN APPLIED FOR, THAT'S WHERE THE LARGER REQUEST COULD BE COMING FROM. AND THIS IS THE EXPECTED

41
00:09:17.356 --> 00:09:28.367
TIMELINE. SO TONIGHT, MAY 12TH FROM HERE SO EXCITING AND THEN I'LL GO TO COUNCIL IN EARLY JUNE AND THEN WE'LL BE BACK IN JULY TO

42
00:09:28.367 --> 00:09:39.512
DISCUSS THE PROPOSED TIFF DISTRICT AND THIS IS KIND OF THE PROPOSING THE PROPOSED FUNDING FOR LIKE OUTSIDE THE CITY. SO HENNEPIN COUNTY AND MET COUNCIL ARE COMING JUNE AND

43
00:09:39.512 --> 00:09:47.520
JULY AND THEN THE DEVELOPER IS ALSO GOING TO BE WORKING WITH THE MINNESOTA MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET SERIES B BONDS APPLICATION AND THIS IS THE

44
00:09:47.520 --> 00:10:00.566
REQUESTED ACTION FOR TONIGHT AND I'LL STAND FOR QUESTIONS OR QUESTIONS. COMMISSIONER WOOTEN SO YOU'RE

45
00:10:00.566 --> 00:10:12.444
POSSIBLY REQUESTING LARGER DOLLARS HOW MUCH IT WOULD DEPEND ON THE RESULTS OF THOSE GRANTS AND THAT'S KIND OF WHAT

46
00:10:12.444 --> 00:10:23.489
WE HAVE FOR NOW. WE'RE NOT MAKING A REQUEST OF LOT RIGHT NOW BUT YOU DON'T HAVE AN IDEA OF HOW MUCH YOU THINK ANTICIPATING IT WOULD BE WHATEVER THE DELTA IS BASED

47
00:10:23.489 --> 00:10:34.966
OFF OF WHATEVER THE DELTA WHATEVER I'M SORRY THE DIFFERENCE IS ON WHAT I NEED. YEAH. SO CHARTER COMMISSIONERS THEY APPLY FOR THESE MULTIPLE SOURCES OF OTHER PUBLIC SOURCES. THEY APPLIED FOR A TOTAL OF $3

48
00:10:34.966 --> 00:10:45.811
MILLION. I WILL SAY IF THEY DON'T GET FUNDING THEN WE WOULD ANTICIPATE THE LARGER REQUESTS AND WE WOULD HAVE TO WORK WITH THEM ON SIZING THE REQUEST APPROPRIATELY FOR THEIR PROJECT.

49
00:10:45.811 --> 00:10:54.719
SO IT WOULDN'T BE A I DON'T NECESSARILY THINK IT WOULD BE A DOLLAR FOR DOLLAR EXCHANGE. 3 MILLION IS A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF DOLLARS TO CONTRIBUTE SO WE WOULD WORK

50
00:10:54.719 --> 00:11:08.200
WITH THEM TO TO DOWNSIZE THAT GAP INTO SOMETHING THAT WE HAD THE FUNDS FOR AND IS FEASIBLE . IT WOULD DEPEND A LITTLE BIT ON THE ON THE PROJECT

51
00:11:11.771 --> 00:11:21.713
THE THE ITEM FOR TONIGHT THE TERM SHEET INCLUDES CONSIDERATION OF TIFF AND THEN DOES SAY IF THEY'RE IF THEY DON'T RECEIVE THIS FUNDING SOURCES THEN THERE WILL BE AN ADDITIONAL REQUEST THAT WOULD BE BROUGHT

52
00:11:21.713 --> 00:11:41.667
BEFORE THE HRA AT THAT TIME FOR THEY NEED TO CONSIDER AND AND TO CONSIDER APPROVING . SO IF THEY WOULDN'T GET THE

53
00:11:41.667 --> 00:11:52.978
TIFF THROUGH THE COUNCIL, THE HENNEPIN COUNTY AND LET'S SAY THE LARGER DOLLARS WEREN'T FUNDABLE, WHAT WOULD HAPPEN TO

54
00:11:52.978 --> 00:12:03.956
THE PROJECT? IS IT NULL AND VOID OR CHARRON COMMISSIONERS WE ARE ANTICIPATING GIVING THEM THE TIFF SO THAT'S THE ITEM BEFORE TONIGHT TO COMMIT THE TIFF THERE ARE SEVERAL ADDITIONAL

55
00:12:03.956 --> 00:12:13.765
ACTIONS THAT WOULD BE NEEDED BUT REGARDLESS OF THE OUTCOME OF THE OTHER FUNDING APPLICATIONS THEY THEY DO HAVE A GAP IN THE PROJECT THAT WOULD REQUIRE SUPPORT FROM TIFF. THE QUESTION IS WHAT HAPPENS WITH THOSE OTHER FUNDING SOURCES?

56
00:12:13.765 --> 00:12:26.412
DO THEY NEED TO COME WITH AN ADDITIONAL ASK FOR LARGER DOLLARS? COMMISSIONER WOULD I FOR ME I

57
00:12:26.412 --> 00:12:37.222
DON'T HAVE ENOUGH INFORMATION IN FRONT OF ME TO MAKE A DECISION LIKE THAT TONIGHT SO I WOULD I WOULD BE ABSTAINING. I'M SORRY , COMMISSIONER.

58
00:12:37.222 --> 00:12:49.101
WHO CAME? THANK YOU, CHAIR. UM, YEAH, I GUESS YOU KNOW THERE IS THAT JUST IT'S A LOT OF WHAT IFS THAT HAVE TO COME TOGETHER AND I GUESS I JUST

59
00:12:49.101 --> 00:13:01.580
DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT PUTS ON US BECAUSE WHAT IF THE AMOUNT THAT THEY'RE REQUESTING FROM LAW HAS ENOUGH? LIKE THEN WE'RE GOING DOWN THIS I MEAN I JUST I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WANT TO KNOW WHAT

60
00:13:01.580 --> 00:13:12.858
THIS FOR SURELY LOCKS US INTO AND WHAT WE CAN BACK OUT OF I GUESS IS MY QUESTION. I GUESS THAT'S WHERE WE'RE I THINK THAT'S WHERE I'M AT IS WHAT IS THIS COMMITTING US TO AND WHAT IS THIS ALLOWING US

61
00:13:12.858 --> 00:13:23.235
TO DOES THAT MAKES SENSE? I AGREE. I DON'T THINK THIS IS VERY CLEAR AND I THINK WE HAVE WAY MORE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.

62
00:13:23.235 --> 00:13:35.547
CHAIR MILLER AND COMMISSIONER SO MY NAME'S KEVIN KANIS. I'M THE SUPERVISOR OF A REAL ESTATE TEAM IN OUR PORT AUTHORITY AND SO IT SOUNDS LIKE THERE'S A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS RELATED TO THE PROJECT AND IN PARTICULAR WHAT

63
00:13:35.547 --> 00:13:46.658
DECISIONS ARE BEING MADE TODAY . SO THE REQUEST FROM STAFF TODAY IS TO APPROVE A TERM SHEET AND THAT TERM SHEET OUTLINES WHAT WE'RE PROPOSING

64
00:13:46.658 --> 00:13:58.670
WOULD BE TAX INCREMENT FINANCING ASSISTANCE FOR THIS PROJECT. THIS IS REALLY THE FIRST STEP THAT PROVIDES SOME CERTAINTY FOR THE DEVELOPER TO THEN TAKE ADDITIONAL STEPS TO PURSUE

65
00:13:58.670 --> 00:14:10.015
OTHER FINANCING. SO REALLY WHAT WE'RE REQUESTING AT THIS POINT IS A DETERMINATION ON IF THIS BODY IS COMFORTABLE WITH COMMITTING A SOFT YES OF THAT TYPE ASSISTANCE.

66
00:14:10.015 --> 00:14:20.893
SO THIS IS NOT A PUBLIC HEARING FOR THAT APPROVAL OR WE WOULD HAVE TO TAKE ADDITIONAL STEPS IN THE FUTURE. SO THAT WAS IN THAT KIND OF THAT THAT TIMELINE THAT WAS SHARED EARLIER. SO AT THIS POINT IT'S A NON

67
00:14:20.893 --> 00:14:32.938
BINDING TERM SHEET AND THE FRAME OF THE ADDITIONAL AMOUNT FOR THE LOT HOW ASSISTANCE THAT WOULD BE DETERMINED BASED ON THE AWARDS THAT MS. OR THAT ALLEN FRAMED AND WE WOULD

68
00:14:32.938 --> 00:14:44.316
REREVIEW THE PROJECT AT THAT POINT SO ONCE THEY GET SOME DETERMINATIONS OF AWARDS THEY'LL DO SOME ADDITIONAL DUE DILIGENCE ABOUT WHAT THOSE CONSTRUCTION COSTS LOOK LIKE AND WHAT SOME ADDITIONAL OTHER

69
00:14:44.316 --> 00:14:55.193
FUNDING AWARDS WOULD BE. AND THEN WE AS STAFF WILL DO AN ANALYSIS OF THE PROJECT AT THAT POINT TO SEE IF WE CAN RIGHTSIZE SOME OF THE DOLLARS BASED ON WHAT THOSE NEEDS ARE.

70
00:14:55.193 --> 00:15:05.170
BUT FOR RIGHT NOW WE'RE REALLY ONLY REQUESTING APPROVAL OF THIS TERM SHEET THAT REALLY GIVES THAT CERTAINTY THAT THE CITY IS COMMITTED TO AT LEAST THIS $1.2 MILLION TO THE

71
00:15:05.170 --> 00:15:17.950
PROJECT AT ITS NET PRESENT VALUE FROM THIS TIFF RESOURCE COMMISSIONER, CAN YOU PUT THE TIMELINE BACK UP PLEASE? YES

72
00:15:26.525 --> 00:15:37.436
. IT WOULD HAVE HELPED TO HAVE SOME EXPLANATION BEFORE TONIGHT. COMMISSIONER ROBERTSON THANK

73
00:15:37.436 --> 00:15:48.447
YOU CHAIR. SO I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU. STAFF IF I'M HEARING WHAT YOU'RE SAYING CORRECTLY THAT TONIGHT IS A SOFT YES, WE ARE NOT ACTUALLY APPROVING THIS PROJECT APPROVAL OF THIS

74
00:15:48.447 --> 00:16:00.025
PROJECT WOULD REQUIRE A PUBLIC HEARING, IS THAT CORRECT? LIKE FULL I SHOULD BE VERY CLEAR AND I USE THOSE TERMS MOVING FORWARD WITH THE PROJECT WOULD REQUIRE A PUBLIC HEARING.

75
00:16:00.025 --> 00:16:11.236
WHAT YOU WHAT STAFF IS ASKING OF THE HRA THIS EVENING IS A SOFT YES TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THIS SO THAT THE DEVELOPER CAN SEEK FUNDS. IS THAT AN ACCURATE ASSESSMENT ? CHAIR MILLER COMMISSIONER COUNCILMEMBER ROBERTSON THAT IS CORRECT REPRESENTATION

76
00:16:11.236 --> 00:16:21.914
OF WHAT WE'RE ASKING FOR TONIGHT. THANK YOU SO MUCH. COMMISSIONER CARTER THANK YOU. I ALSO WANT TO THANK STAFF FOR ALL YOUR WORK ON THIS. I KNOW THESE PROJECTS ARE COMPLEX WITH LOTS OF MOVING

77
00:16:21.914 --> 00:16:32.691
PIECES AND SO I ALSO WANT TO SAY THE TIMELINE IS IN THE PACKET. IT'S ON PAGE 19 SO IF YOU WANT TO REFERENCE IT AGAIN I THINK IT'S PRETTY MUCH IS IT THE SCENE IS ON THE SLIDE. OKAY.

78
00:16:32.691 --> 00:16:45.136
SO ONE OF THE QUESTIONS THAT I HAVE IS RELATED TO THE 5% OF THE INCREMENT WILL BE RETAINED FOR ADMINISTRATIVE PURPOSES AND 5% WOULD BE POOLED. OBVIOUSLY 25 YEAR LIFE OF THE

79
00:16:45.136 --> 00:16:57.616
DISTRICT IS LIKE IT'S A LONG TIME, RIGHT? AND BY THE END OF 25 YEARS THERE WILL BE MAINTENANCE PROBABLY SOME PRETTY SIGNIFICANT MAINTENANCE NEEDS LIKE REQUIREMENTS AND THINGS LIKE THAT. AND WE'VE JUST SEEN A LOT

80
00:16:57.616 --> 00:17:08.727
OF NO PROPERTIES THAT HAVE GOTTEN TO FUNDING AND HAVE YOU KNOW THEY'VE COME BEFORE US IN THE LAST COUPLE OF MONTHS SIX MONTHS BECAUSE THEY'RE IN FINANCIALLY VERY DIFFICULT POSITIONS NOW WITH THE

81
00:17:08.727 --> 00:17:20.105
MAINTENANCE NEEDS REQUIRED ON THEIR BUILDINGS AND SO WOULD 5% FOR THE ADMINISTRATIVE PURPOSES WOULD THAT GO INTO LIKE A MAINTENANCE FUND FOR CURRENT AND FUTURE MAINTENANCE OR IS THERE SOME KIND OF WAY

82
00:17:20.105 --> 00:17:30.649
THAT WE COULD REQUIRE SOMETHING LIKE THAT? I DON'T KNOW IF LEGALLY WE CAN BUT JUST KIND OF LOOKING OUT FOR OUR INTERESTS IN 25 TO 30 YEARS SO WE DON'T LIKE WE DON'T JUST HAVE ALL THESE BUILDINGS COMING BACK TO THE

83
00:17:30.649 --> 00:17:42.193
HRA SAYING LIKE HEY NOW WE'RE TO THIS POINT WE CAN'T WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO MAINTAIN THESE BUILDINGS. AND SO I'M CURIOUS IF YES CHAIR MILLER COUNCILMEMBER

84
00:17:42.193 --> 00:17:53.905
CARTER SO THE 5% THAT'S PART OF THE TIFF PROPOSAL WOULD BE FOR OUR ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS. OH, OKAY. THE DEVELOPER HAS THEIR OWN MANAGEMENT AND MAINTENANCE COSTS THAT ARE BUILT INTO THE

85
00:17:53.905 --> 00:18:05.250
ASSUMPTIONS OF THEIR PRO FORMA AND THOSE ARE THE THINGS THAT ONCE THEY GET THEIR FULL DEVELOPMENT BUDGET BACK BASED ON THEIR CONSTRUCTION ESTIMATES, WE'LL LOOK AT THAT AND MAKE SURE THAT IT'S RIGHT SIZE.

86
00:18:05.250 --> 00:18:16.361
WE ARE USING THE INFORMATION THAT THEY PROVIDED AT THIS POINT AND BECAUSE IT'S A TAX CREDIT PROJECT IT'S PRETTY PRETTY STREAMLINED AND SORT OF WHAT THE EXPECTATIONS ARE AND THEY'RE FOLLOWING MINNESOTA HOUSING'S GUIDANCE ON THAT.

87
00:18:16.361 --> 00:18:27.639
OKAY. BUT GENERALLY WE'RE LOOKING AT HAVING AN INFLATOR AND MAKING SURE THAT THEY'RE LOOKING AT AN INCREASE OF COSTS OVER TIME AND BUILDING THAT INTO THOSE BUDGET NUMBERS. OKAY. AWESOME.

88
00:18:27.639 --> 00:18:39.351
I ALSO HAD THE QUESTION AROUND LARGER FUNDS IS THERE A CHANCE THAT IF THEY DON'T GET THESE GRANTS THIS TIME THEY COULD APPLY AGAIN IN THE FUTURE? LIKE COULD IT JUST POTENTIALLY MAYBE DELAY THE PROJECT?

89
00:18:39.351 --> 00:18:50.362
CHAIR MILLER COUNCILMEMBER CARTER THEY COULD APPLY AGAIN SO THEY HAVE APPLIED FOR THE HOUSING BONDS AT THIS POINT AND SO THE DEVELOPER HOPES

90
00:18:50.362 --> 00:19:00.505
THAT GIVEN THAT THEY'RE IN A GOOD POSITION TO RECEIVE THEM THIS NEXT ROUND AS FRAMED IN THE STAFF REPORT, IT'S POSSIBLE THAT THERE MAY BE THEY MAY NOT RECEIVE IT AGAIN THIS ROUND AND THEY WOULD HAVE

91
00:19:00.505 --> 00:19:13.051
TO APPLY AGAIN IN JANUARY AND THEN THOSE MET COUNCIL AWARDS THEY DO A KIND OF A TWICE YEARLY CYCLE CYCLICAL BASIS AND SO THEY COULD APPLY AT THAT POINT. OKAY. SO YES THEY COULD HAPPEN AT A

92
00:19:13.051 --> 00:19:23.394
LATER DATE. OKAY. AND THEN THIS IS KIND OF MORE OF A RANDOM QUESTION BUT IN THE RENDERINGS THEY HAVE THE BUILDING GOING RIGHT UP TO THE STREET. IS THAT WHAT THEY'RE PLANNING ?

93
00:19:23.394 --> 00:19:35.173
CHAIR MILLER COUNCILMEMBER CARTER THE RENDERINGS ARE THE CURRENT PROPOSAL. SO PART OF THE REASON THAT IT'S DESIGNED THAT WAY IS TO KIND OF MEET THE STREET SO

94
00:19:35.173 --> 00:19:46.485
HAVING MORE OF A LITTLE BIT OF AN URBAN CHARACTER THAT PROVIDES A MORE PEDESTRIAN FRIENDLY SORT OF PATHWAY FOR FOLKS THAT ARE WALKING YEAH AND I WAS GONE AND I JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT'S YES

95
00:19:46.485 --> 00:19:55.693
,SORT OF THAT OKAY. AND THE DEVELOPER IS ON THE PHONE AND COULD CERTAINLY SPEAK TO SOME OF THOSE DESIGN THINGS MORE SPECIFICALLY AS WELL. OKAY. WELL THEN I WOULD SAY TO RELATED TO KIND OF THE DESIGN

96
00:19:55.693 --> 00:20:05.771
AND THE AMENITIES, I REALLY HONESTLY DON'T RECALL SEEING ANY OTHER PROPOSALS BEFORE US IN THE PAST THAT ARE JUST SO EXPLICITLY DESIGNED FOR

97
00:20:05.771 --> 00:20:17.482
ACCESSIBILITY LIKE THE AUDIO VISUAL UNITS, THE TYPE BE ADAPTIVE UNITS. I JUST REALLY REALLY IMPRESSED WITH THE LENGTH THAT THEY'RE

98
00:20:17.482 --> 00:20:29.795
GOING TO NOT ONLY MEET THE INCOME REQUIREMENTS BUT ALSO REALLY AROUND ACCESSIBILITY AND THE SUSTAINABILITY PIECES TOO. SO AND THEN THE ONLY OTHER QUESTION I HAD WAS I KNOW I

99
00:20:29.795 --> 00:20:41.940
DID SEE THAT TIMELINE BUT DOES THIS WHAT WHAT I GUESS I'M KIND OF CONFUSED BETWEEN LIKE THE HRA AND THE PORT'S ROLES IN THIS AND SO MAYBE IF WE

100
00:20:41.940 --> 00:20:52.583
COULD SOMEBODY COULD EXPLAIN THAT A LITTLE BIT MARK'S I KNOW IF IT'S 20 UNITS OR MORE IT USUALLY IS THE PORT SO I GUESS I'D JUST BE CURIOUS TO HEAR MORE ABOUT STAFF THOUGHTS ON THAT.

101
00:20:52.583 --> 00:21:04.195
>> CERTAINLY. DO YOU WANT TO GO OR SHOULD I GO FOR IT? SO WHEN WE ORIGINALLY RECEIVED THIS PROPOSAL WE WERE EVALUATING HAVING GOING TO THE PORT AUTHORITY AND THAT WAS

102
00:21:04.195 --> 00:21:15.073
BECAUSE OF THE 20 YEAR OR 20 LIMIT SORT OF CUTOFF THAT YOU JUST FRAMED. HOWEVER, GIVEN THAT THERE MAY BE A NEED FOR A SUBSIDY BEYOND OR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE BEYOND THE TAX INCREMENT FINANCING

103
00:21:15.073 --> 00:21:27.285
AND THAT COULD BE LARGER AND THAT LARGER AUTHORITY REALLY HAS BEEN DELEGATED TO THE HRA. WE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE PERTINENT TO BRING IT TO THIS BODY AND THEN IN ADDITION TO

104
00:21:27.285 --> 00:21:38.730
THE FACT WHICH YOU'VE PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED, IT REALLY IS OF AFFORDABLE BUILDING AND THAT REALLY ALIGNS WITH THE PORT'S MISSION OR THE H RAYS MISSION HERE WE THOUGHT FOR THOSE REASONS IT MADE SENSE TO BRING IT TO THIS

105
00:21:38.730 --> 00:21:47.706
BODY OTHERWISE THAT WOULD POSSIBLY REQUIRE MORE PUBLIC MEETINGS FOR THE SAME APPROVAL PROCESS AND SO IT COULD HAVE HAD TO GO TO BOTH THE PORT AND

106
00:21:47.706 --> 00:22:01.152
HRA IF THAT LARGER ASSISTANCE WAS REQUIRED. THAT MAKES SENSE. THANK YOU. AND I SAW HAND-RAISED NO. OKAY. COMMISSIONER HUGHEY THANK YOU CHAIR I JUST WANTED TO NOTE

107
00:22:01.152 --> 00:22:12.130
ONE THING THAT I JUST WANT TO MY ACCOUNTING BRAIN IS VERY HAPPY WITH THIS COMMUNITY WEALTH BUILDING THAT THEY HAVE PUT INTO THAT AS AN AMENITY. I'VE NEVER IN MY LIFE THAT I HAVE SEEN A PROJECT OF OF AN

108
00:22:12.130 --> 00:22:23.375
ORGANIZATION PUTTING SOMETHING LIKE THAT IN THERE. SO I THINK THAT'S AMAZING TO HELP THE COMMUNITY BUILD WEALTH AND HELP THEM WITH HELP WITH WHEN FINANCIAL NEEDS ARISE. SO I THINK THAT'S A GREAT LIKE

109
00:22:23.375 --> 00:22:35.520
A PLAN FOR OTHERS GOING FORWARD. SO THIS IS IT. SO I APOLOGIZE THAT I WAS A LITTLE CONFUSED AS TO WHAT WE HAVE ALSO BEEN ON A LITTLE BIT OF A BREAK SO WE'RE ALL I

110
00:22:35.520 --> 00:22:45.664
THINK ALL GETTING BACK INTO OUR BRAINS SO THANK YOU FOR BEING WITH US ON THAT AS WELL. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT.

111
00:22:45.664 --> 00:22:57.475
ARE OTHER QUESTIONS OR OTHER DISCUSSION ARE WE READY TO TAKE A VOTE ON THE SOFT YES.

112
00:22:57.475 --> 00:23:08.587
YES. OKAY. SO I WILL BE LOOKING FOR A MOTION TO ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING TERM SHEET AND

113
00:23:08.587 --> 00:23:20.065
AUTHORIZING STAFF TO NEGOTIATE A REDEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT FOR LYNDALE ARTMENTS. THE I HAVE A MOTION SO MOVED MOVED BY COMMISSIONER CARTER

114
00:23:20.065 --> 00:23:27.906
SECOND AND SECOND BY COMMISSIONER DOUBLING HER ALL IN FAVOR I MOTION PASSES SIX

115
00:23:27.906 --> 00:23:39.317
ZERO THANK YOU THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT AND NEXT IS 5.2 GENERAL AMENDMENT TO THE ANNUAL ACTION PLAN PUBLIC

116
00:23:39.317 --> 00:24:05.210
SERVICES 2025 THANK YOU CHAIR. COMMISSIONERS HERE TODAY TALK ABOUT A GENERAL AMENDMENT TO THE ANNUAL ACTION PLAN FOR

117
00:24:05.210 --> 00:24:17.122
2025. SO LAST YEAR'S PROGRAM YEAR TO GIVE YOU A LITTLE BACKGROUND OR SOME CONTEXT AS YOU RECALL

118
00:24:18.490 --> 00:24:29.167
THAT COMMITTEE DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT, ONE OF THE COMPONENTS IS PUBLIC SERVICE DOLLARS THAT IS CAPPED AT 15%

119
00:24:29.167 --> 00:24:41.178
OF THE GRANT ALLOCATION. SO LAST YEAR AND 2025 WE DID AN RFP FOR PROPOSALS FOR THAT PUBLIC SERVICE ALLOCATION OR PART OF THE ALLOCATION.

120
00:24:41.178 --> 00:24:51.656
WE ORIGINALLY APPROVED A BUDGET IN 2025 OF $50,000. WE WERE BEING A LITTLE CONSERVATIVE, NOT SURE WHAT OUR ANNUAL ALLOCATION WAS AND

121
00:24:51.656 --> 00:25:03.101
AS A RESULT OF THAT WE HAD THREE THAT WERE SELECTED OUT OF THAT RFP. BUT WE'LL KIND OF GET INTO THE DETAILS HERE IN A MINUTE BUT

122
00:25:03.101 --> 00:25:16.247
WE ARE AWARDED AT THAT TIME V HOUSING AND SENIOR COMMUNITY SERVICES AND THAT ACTION AT THAT TIME APPROVED THE BUDGET AND THE AWARDS.

123
00:25:16.247 --> 00:25:25.690
BUT WE ALSO WERE DIRECTED TO INCREASE THEIR BUDGET A LITTLE BIT KNOWING THAT THE AWARD TO SENIOR COMMUNITY SERVICES WAS LOWER THAN THEY TYPICALLY WOULD HAVE AND TO MAKE THE PROJECT A LITTLE BIT MORE

124
00:25:25.690 --> 00:25:37.435
FEASIBLE SO OUR PUBLIC SERVICES TO GET INTO A LITTLE MORE DETAIL AND WE'LL TALK ABOUT THIS MORE NEXT WEEK OR

125
00:25:37.435 --> 00:25:48.980
NEXT ITEM IS PUBLIC SERVICES FOR NEXT YEAR BUT THEY CAN ADDRESS A WIDE RANGE OF NEEDS BUT THEY DO HAVE TO TIE BACK TO OUR CONSOLIDATED PLAN AND THEN WE PUT IT IN THE ANNUAL

126
00:25:48.980 --> 00:26:01.159
ACTION PLAN AND THEY MUST SERVE 70% OR MORE OF LOW INCOME RESIDENTS SO THOSE MAKING 80% AREA MEDIAN INCOME OR BELOW.

127
00:26:01.159 --> 00:26:10.268
SO LIKE I HAD MENTIONED, WE HAD AWARDED V VOLUNTEERS LISTEN TO US AS PEOPLE THEY WE DID THEIR FULL REQUEST OF 30,000. WE KIND OF CAPPED IT HOPING TO

128
00:26:10.268 --> 00:26:20.878
DO TWO AWARDS LAST YEAR WE WEREN'T ANTICIPATING THAT HOUSING LINK WOULD REQUEST A LOWER AMOUNT THAN THE MAXIMUM AT 9030.

129
00:26:20.878 --> 00:26:31.956
SO THAT LEFT US WITH THAT 50,000 A REMAINDER OF 99,970 THAT WE AWARDED TO SENIOR COMMUNITY SERVICES. SO KNOWING THAT IT WAS A

130
00:26:31.956 --> 00:26:43.301
LITTLE BIT LOWER THAN THEIR FULL REQUEST, WE THEN TOOK THIS STEP. SO THE AMENDMENT PROCESS THIS IS CONSIDERED A GENERAL

131
00:26:43.301 --> 00:26:52.610
AMENDMENT IN OUR CITIZEN PARTICIPATION PLAN SO THERE ARE DIFFERENT LEVELS. THERE IS ADMINISTRATIVE AMENDMENT WE CAN DO FOR SMALLER ADJUSTMENTS. THIS TRIGGERS INTO A GENERAL

132
00:26:52.610 --> 00:27:05.223
AMENDMENT GIVEN THE SIZE THAT THE AWARD IS BUT IT'S NOT A SUBSTANTIAL AMENDMENT WHICH IS MORE LIKE ADDING A NEW ACTIVITY OR IF IT'S $100,000

133
00:27:05.223 --> 00:27:16.301
ADJUSTMENT IN BUDGET OR MORE THAT'S CONSIDERED SUBSTANTIAL . SO IN THE GENERAL AMENDMENT THAT MIDDLE CATEGORY WE STILL HAD TO DO A PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD. SO WE POSTED THIS ON OUR WEBSITE AND NEWSPAPER NOTICE

134
00:27:16.301 --> 00:27:27.879
THAT RAN THROUGH APRIL 24TH THROUGH MAY 12TH. WE DID NOT RECEIVE ANY COMMENTS BUT WE'RE HERE TODAY FOR THAT APPROVAL BUT IT IS NOT A PUBLIC HEARING DOES NOT

135
00:27:27.879 --> 00:27:39.357
REQUIRE A PUBLIC HEARING SO THE AMENDMENT WOULD REALLY BE INCREASING THE PUBLIC SERVICES BUDGET BY $10,000 KNOWING THAT WE WOULD AWARD THAT TO SENIOR COMMUNITY SERVICES AND WE HAVE

136
00:27:39.357 --> 00:27:51.336
TO TAKE THAT MONEY TECHNICALLY FROM SOMEWHERE. SO WE'RE REDUCING THE REHAB LOAN BUDGET BY THAT AMOUNT BUT WE HAVE PROGRAM INCOME AND OTHER SOURCES THAT KIND OF FILL THAT GAP.

137
00:27:51.336 --> 00:28:02.647
SO IT'S MORE MOSTLY JUST AN ACCOUNTING SITUATION AND WITH THAT THERE'S A SUGGESTION MOTION OR I CAN ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE QUESTION

138
00:28:02.647 --> 00:28:14.092
COMMISSIONER WHO CAME AND IT'S JUST MIGHT BE A CLERICAL THING I DON'T KNOW BUT IN THE ACTUAL RESOLUTION IT SAYS 19,032 SENIOR COMMUNITY SERVICES THEN

139
00:28:14.092 --> 00:28:28.239
YOUR PRESENTATION SAID 19,008 70 SO I'M JUST CONFIRMING YOU KNOW THE AGREEMENT VERSUS I'LL

140
00:28:28.239 --> 00:28:42.153
HAVE TO CHECK THAT IT SHOULD BE 19,009 AND 70. LET ME LET ME VERIFY SO THAT WE HAVE THE CORRECT AMOUNT IN THERE

141
00:28:59.337 --> 00:30:28.059
. IT'S ALSO JUST SORRY MAKING SURE I'M PULLING UP THERE

142
00:30:28.059 --> 00:30:40.104
ACTUAL RFP TO CONFIRM THE AMOUNT BECAUSE YEAH WE HAVE A COUPLE DIFFERENT VERSIONS I WENT THROUGH

143
00:31:18.109 --> 00:31:28.219
. YES. SO SENIOR COMMUNITY SERVICES WOULD BE A IT SHOULD BE 9000 AND THE TOTAL AMOUNT SO THIS

144
00:31:28.219 --> 00:31:38.996
IS CORRECT UP HERE THEIR PARTIAL AWARD WAS 9009 70 AND THEIR TOTAL AMOUNT WILL BE 19,009 70. >> OKAY SO THEN WE MIGHT NEED TO MEET TO ADJUST THAT TO

145
00:31:38.996 --> 00:31:48.172
ADJUST THAT IN THEIR RESOLUTION SO I CAN ADJUST THE MOTION FOR YOU IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO.

146
00:31:48.172 --> 00:32:17.902
SURE . ACTUALLY IS THERE AT THE END I

147
00:32:17.902 --> 00:32:31.883
WOULD SAY MOTION THE AGREEMENT FOR PROGRAM YEAR TO I'M I HAVE THE WRONG AND THEN YOU CAN

148
00:32:31.883 --> 00:32:42.093
JUST ADD AFTER SENIOR COMMUNITY SERVICES TO THE AND I'M TRYING TO THINK HOW WE WOULD ADJUST THIS.

149
00:32:42.093 --> 00:32:55.239
CHAIR COMMISSIONERS WE HAVE OUR PERHAPS OUR ATTORNEY IS ONLINE PERHAPS YOU COULD JUMP IN AND HELP US IF WE NEED TO AMEND THIS MOTION

150
00:32:56.074 --> 00:33:07.618
. I'M SORRY I WAS HAVING TROUBLE FINDING NEW I THINK AND OBVIOUSLY IT'S VERY LIGHT IN THE ROOM. I MEAN I CAN HELP AMEND THE

151
00:33:07.618 --> 00:33:15.893
MOTION ONCE WE HAVE DO WE HAVE THE FINAL NUMBERS WE NEED? YES. SO THAT THE FINAL AWARD WILL

152
00:33:15.893 --> 00:33:31.275
BE 19,009 70 . ALL RIGHT. HERE DO YOU WANT TO GIVE ME A

153
00:33:31.275 --> 00:33:40.718
MINUTE TO PULL UP THE ITEM? I DON'T HAVE IT HERE. JUST WHAT DO YOU WANT? IT CAN WE COME BACK TO THIS ONE?

154
00:33:40.718 --> 00:33:54.932
COULD COULD WE JUST MAKE THIS MOTION AND APPROVE IT AND THEN VERBALIZE WITH THE CORRECT AMOUNT OF 19,970? YEAH, A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS. OH YEAH, SURE.

155
00:33:54.932 --> 00:34:05.543
IF I CAN ASK COMMISSIONER WOOTEN. SO THE DECISION WAS MADE TO PULL 10,000 FROM THE REHAB LOAN PROGRAM. WHAT WAS THE THOUGHT PROCESS THERE?

156
00:34:05.543 --> 00:34:17.721
CHAIR COMMISSIONER RUBIN WE NEED TO ADJUST OUR BUDGET SOMEHOW BECAUSE WE'RE INCREASING OUR BUDGET AND WE DIDN'T RECEIVE ANY ADDITIONAL ALLOCATION BUT THE JUSTIFICATION OF DOING THE REHAB LOAN PROGRAM IS WE ALSO

157
00:34:17.721 --> 00:34:27.531
FUNNEL PROGRAM INCOME IN THERE. SO WHILE WE'RE INCREASING THE ALLOCATE THAT AMOUNT SO THE 465,000 THAT IS TECHNICALLY

158
00:34:27.531 --> 00:34:39.410
REDUCING THE REHAB LOAN ALLOCATED AMOUNT BUT IT WILL STILL ESSENTIALLY BE A WASH AS WE GET PLENTY OF PROGRAM INCOME THAT KIND OF ADJUSTS THAT VARIABILITY IF THAT MAKES SENSE.

159
00:34:39.410 --> 00:34:49.786
CHAIR COMMISSIONERS, IF I CAN CLARIFY TWO WE BECAUSE WE RECEIVE PROGRAM INCOME WHICH WE CAN'T BUDGET FOR BECAUSE IT'S VARIABLE ACCORDING TO THE MARKET IT VARIES PER YEAR. SO THIS THIS BECAUSE OF THE ACCOUNTING FUNCTION WE

160
00:34:49.786 --> 00:35:01.365
BASICALLY HAVE TO MOVE IT BUT WE ARE RECEIVING MORE THAN ENOUGH PROGRAM INCOME TO FUND OUR PROGRAM FULLY SO IT'S NOT LIKE A LOAN IS BEING DROPPED FROM THE PROGRAM ALL OF OUR OUR WE'RE STILL MOVING FORWARD

161
00:35:01.365 --> 00:35:12.576
WITH PROCESSING OUR LOANS AS NORMAL AND ALSO THIS YEAR AND LAST YEAR WE RECEIVED FAIRLY SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS OF PROGRAM INCOME DUE TO PEOPLE SELLING HOMES AND THINGS LIKE THAT FOR THE REVOLVING FUND.

162
00:35:12.576 --> 00:35:26.357
SO THE REHAB LOAN PROGRAM HAS ADEQUATE FUNDING AND SO THIS IS KIND OF JUST MOVING IT OVER A SMALL PORTION TO THE SENIOR COMMUNITY SERVICES BUDGET

163
00:35:26.657 --> 00:35:37.868
. OTHER QUESTION THE MOTION IN FRONT OF THE IN FRONT OF THE BOARD AND IT DOESN'T HAVE A DOLLAR AMOUNT IN THE MOTION TO BE MADE SO I THINK YOU CAN KEEP THE MOTION THE SAME AND I THINK YOU CAN

164
00:35:37.868 --> 00:35:49.379
AUTHORIZE VERBALLY THAT STAFF CAN CORRECT THAT AMOUNT CONSISTENT WITH YOUR INTENT PROVIDED THAT THEY DON'T ADD ANOTHER $50,000 WHICH OF COURSE THEY WOULD NEVER DO AS LONG AS THEY JUST KIND

165
00:35:49.379 --> 00:36:01.259
OF SQUARE OFF THESE NUMBERS AND THAT FITS WITH THE INTENT OF THE BOARD. I THINK THAT THE EXISTING MOTION WILL WORK

166
00:36:02.960 --> 00:36:14.972
. I REALLY COULDN'T HEAR. >> CHAIR COMMISSION I'LL JUST RESTATE BECAUSE RACHEL'S COMING THROUGH A LITTLE BIT FAINTLY HERE BUT SHE'S BASICALLY SAYING WE CAN MAKE THE MOTION AS IS AND JUST VERBALLY AUTHORIZE US TO

167
00:36:14.972 --> 00:36:25.349
CORRECT THE RESOLUTION TO THE CORRECT AMOUNT. YEP. 19,870. YEP. OKAY SO I WILL ASK FOR I'M

168
00:36:25.349 --> 00:36:36.794
SORRY SIR. QUESTION OKAY. I WILL ASK FOR A MOTION TO ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING AN AMENDMENT TO THE 2025 ANNUAL ACTION PLAN BUDGET FOR

169
00:36:36.794 --> 00:36:45.336
PUBLIC SERVICES TO INCREASE THE AWARD TO SENIOR COMMUNITY SERVICES SO MOVED PARDON TO

170
00:36:45.336 --> 00:36:57.548
WHAT DID I MISS TO THE MAIN OH OKAY. INCREASE THE AWARD TO $19,970.

171
00:36:57.548 --> 00:37:07.224
OKAY SO MAY I HAVE A MOTION SO MOVED SECOND MOVED BY COMMISSIONER WHO CAME IN SECOND BY COMMISSIONER ROBERTSON.

172
00:37:07.224 --> 00:37:17.635
ALL RIGHT ALL IN FAVOR I MOTION PASSES SIX ZERO. OKAY. NEXT ITEM 5.3 IS COMMUNITY

173
00:37:17.635 --> 00:37:32.450
DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT PUBLIC SERVICES FOR 2020 6TH MAY WE HAVE THE STAFF REPORT? THANK YOU, CHAIR

174
00:37:33.284 --> 00:37:45.596
SO WE'LL MOVE FROM LAST YEAR TO THIS YEAR OR OUR PUBLIC SERVICES DOLLARS THIS YEAR. WE WERE FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO HAVE AHEAD OF TIME A LITTLE

175
00:37:45.596 --> 00:37:56.574
MORE ADVANCE NOTICE OF WHAT THAT ANNUAL ALLOCATION IS SO THAT FOR 2026 WE HAVE $477,190. WE APPROVED IN OUR BUDGET FOR

176
00:37:56.574 --> 00:38:07.384
THE ANNUAL ACTION PLAN $70,000 AGAIN RECOGNIZING LAST YEAR WE WERE OVER SUBSCRIBED FOR THE PROGRAM SO WE MADE THAT INCREASE TO GET CLOSER TO WHAT

177
00:38:07.384 --> 00:38:18.796
THAT CAP WOULD BE. SO SIMILAR TO LAST YEAR WE DID AN RFP PROCESS. IT CLOSED ON APRIL 21ST. WE REVIEWED ITEMS IN THOSE

178
00:38:18.796 --> 00:38:30.474
PROPOSALS RELATED TO PROJECT FEASIBILITY ORGANIZATIONAL CAPACITY. ARE THEY ABLE TO COMPLETE IT? DO THEY HAVE THE EXPERTISE TO DO IT TIMELINESS SCHEDULE RESPONSE AND IF CAN THEY COMPLETE IT IN IN A YEAR AND

179
00:38:30.474 --> 00:38:45.422
THEN THEIR EXPERIENCE AND REFERENCES THAT SHOW THAT THEY ARE CAPABLE OF THE PROJECT AGAIN PUBLIC SERVICES CAN USE FOR A WIDE RANGE OF THINGS

180
00:38:45.422 --> 00:38:55.933
THESE ARE SERVICES TO PEOPLE SO NOT BUILDING THINGS A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT CATEGORY AND OUR COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT BUT IT COULD BE WIDE RANGING FROM COACHING TO

181
00:38:55.933 --> 00:39:08.712
FINANCIAL EDUCATION AND TO WHAT YOU'LL SEE HERE WITH EMERGENCY RENTAL ASSISTANCE, FAIR HOUSING ACTIVITY IT'S PRETTY WIDE AND OPEN ENDED WHICH IS WHY WE DID A REQUEST

182
00:39:08.712 --> 00:39:20.056
FOR PROPOSALS KNOWING THAT THERE ARE LOTS OF DIFFERENT WAYS IT COULD BE SPENT BUT WE ALWAYS TIE IT BACK TO OUR CONSOLIDATED PLAN WHICH IDENTIFIES GOALS AND ACTIVITIES THAT WE WANT TO

183
00:39:20.056 --> 00:39:30.967
ACCOMPLISH. AGAIN, 70% MUST BE LOW OR MODERATE INCOME. SO THIS YEAR WE ARE LOOKING TO AWARD TO VPP AGAIN FOR RENTAL ASSISTANCE. THEY HAD A VERY STRONG

184
00:39:30.967 --> 00:39:42.312
APPLICATION AND THE NEED AS WE KNOW IN OUR COMMUNITY BUT WE HAVE A TWO OTHER AWARDEES THAT WE'RE PROPOSING THIS YEAR WITH BRIDGING AND HOME LINE SO I'LL

185
00:39:42.312 --> 00:39:53.623
RUN THROUGH THEIR PROGRAMS. WE BEGAN EMERGENCY RENTAL ASSISTANCE. WE FUNDED THAT PREVIOUS YEAR AND OTHER CAPACITIES AS WELL STRONG PARTNER IN BLOOMINGTON

186
00:39:53.623 --> 00:40:04.168
THEY ARE PROPOSING WE INCREASED OUR MAXIMUM AWARD A LITTLE BIT THIS YEAR AGAIN SO 35,000 SLIGHTLY HIGHER THAN THE 30,000 CAP LAST YEAR BUT

187
00:40:04.168 --> 00:40:15.679
WITH THAT THEIR PROPOSING TO SERVE 17 HOUSEHOLDS ROUGHLY AND IT WILL BE USED FOR EVICTION PREVENTION AND KEEPING PEOPLE IN THEIR HOMES AND THEY CONTINUE TO

188
00:40:15.679 --> 00:40:26.423
PRIORITIZE THE LOWEST INCOME SO 30% AREA MEDIAN INCOME SO BRIDGING YOU'LL BE FAMILIAR WITH WE ARE FUNDED THROUGH OUR

189
00:40:26.423 --> 00:40:38.335
ADMIN SERVICES ANNUALLY SO A SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT FUNDING PART BUT THE SAME PROGRAM SO THEY APPLIED FOR ADDITIONAL FUNDING THROUGH THIS

190
00:40:38.335 --> 00:40:49.480
OPPORTUNITY BUT THEY PROVIDE LOW AND LOW COST FURNITURE SO THEIR AWARD REQUEST WAS FOR ONLY 15,000 BUT THEY'RE

191
00:40:49.480 --> 00:41:00.257
LOOKING TO SERVE 117 BLOOMINGTON RESIDENTS SO THEY HAVE OTHER FUNDING SOURCES THAT THEY ARE USING TO DO THEIR PROGRAM AND THEY PROVIDE ESSENTIAL FURNITURE AND HOUSEHOLD HOUSEHOLD GOODS.

192
00:41:00.257 --> 00:41:11.735
SO IT'S KIND OF AN INVISIBLE ISSUE THAT PEOPLE DON'T THINK ABOUT WHEN WE PROVIDE A HOUSING UNIT YOU THEN NEED TO FURNISH THE HOUSING UNIT, YOU NEED A TABLE TO EAT AT YOU

193
00:41:11.735 --> 00:41:21.378
NEED A COUCH TO SIT ON, YOU NEED OTHER FURNISHINGS THAT KIND OF ARE MISSING IN THAT PROCESS AND THAT'S WHERE BRIDGING COMES IN THEY RECEIVE DONATED FURNITURE AND THEY HELP MOVE THAT TO INDIVIDUALS

194
00:41:21.378 --> 00:41:31.989
WHO ARE MOVING FROM HOMELESSNESS INTO THOSE AFFORDABLE UNITS AND THEN HOME LINE. SIMILARLY WE FUNDED THEM IN THE PAST THROUGH OTHER

195
00:41:31.989 --> 00:41:41.832
OPPORTUNITIES BUT THEY PROVIDE A TENANT HOTLINE SO WE ARE USING THE REMAINDER OF THE FUNDS AFTER THE 35 AND THE 15

196
00:41:41.832 --> 00:41:53.844
SO $20,000 REMAINING TO AWARD TO HOME LOAN THEY WOULD CONTINUE TO PROVIDE THE LEGAL SERVICES THAT THEY PROVIDE. SO HOME LINE REALLY IS A TEAM OF ATTORNEYS THAT ANSWER PHONE

197
00:41:53.844 --> 00:42:05.289
CALLS AND PROVIDE LEGAL ADVICE TO THOSE IN DIFFERENT SITUATIONS SO IT CAN BE ANYTHING FROM EVICTION PREVENTION REPAIRS YOU NEED TO GET OUT OF YOUR LEASE. WHAT ARE THE LEGAL

198
00:42:05.289 --> 00:42:15.699
IMPLICATIONS OF BREAKING A LEASE FAIR HOUSING COMPLAINTS THEY WILL TAKE AS WELL. SO A WIDE RANGE OF THINGS THAT THEY ADDRESS RELATED TO YOUR

199
00:42:15.699 --> 00:42:27.411
RENTING AND YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS . SO WITH THAT WILL INCORPORATE THIS. SO OUR ANNUAL ACTION PLAN IS GOING TO HOPEFULLY BE

200
00:42:27.411 --> 00:42:38.856
SUBMITTED FRIDAY. WE'RE ALMOST DONE FINISHING ALL OF THE SIGNATURES THAT WE NEED FOR THAT. SO ONCE THAT'S SUBMITTED IT GOES TO HUD FOR THEIR REVIEW. THE PROGRAM YEAR STARTS JULY

201
00:42:38.856 --> 00:42:50.667
1ST SO THERE'S SOME TIME. SO IN THE MEANTIME WE'LL BE WORKING ON DRAFTING AND EXECUTING IT AND DRAFTING UP CONTRACTS FOR THAT EXECUTION FOR THE PROGRAM YEAR START AND THEN ONCE THE PROGRAM STARTS

202
00:42:50.667 --> 00:42:58.008
WE'LL START ADMINISTERING THE FUNDS AND KIND OF THE TYPICAL PROCESS WITH THERE WITH OUR PARTNERS. WITH THAT I'LL ANSWER ANY

203
00:42:58.008 --> 00:43:13.089
QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS ON THIS . COMMISSIONER CARTER THANK YOU . I FULLY SUPPORTIVE OF THIS AND

204
00:43:13.089 --> 00:43:24.668
THEN I GUESS ONE OF MY QUESTIONS FOR YOU CAN YOU JUST TALK ABOUT SOME OF THE HOW DO WE WHAT KIND OF REPORTING REQUIREMENTS ARE THERE IN PLACE FOR THE NONPROFITS?

205
00:43:24.668 --> 00:43:35.813
I THINK NOWADAYS THAT'S A QUESTION THAT COMES UP FREQUENTLY AND SO I WONDER IF YOU COULD SPEAK TO THAT. YEP. CHAIR COMMISSIONERS SO BECAUSE THIS IS FEDERAL FUNDING AND

206
00:43:35.813 --> 00:43:47.591
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANTS SPECIFICALLY THERE ARE QUITE A FEW DIFFERENT REQUIREMENTS THAT WE HAVE TO COMPLY BY SO WE HAVE DIFFERENT INCOME VERIFICATIONS THAT THEY

207
00:43:47.591 --> 00:43:58.068
WILL BE REQUIRED TO DO DEPENDING ON THE SERVICES THAT THEY PROVIDE. AGAIN, WE NEED TO DEMONSTRATE THAT WE'RE SERVING 70% OVER MODERATE INCOME SO THEY HAVE TO BE ABLE TO PROVIDE THAT INFORMATION TO US DEPENDING ON

208
00:43:58.068 --> 00:44:09.913
WHAT WE'RE FUNDING. IT'S STAFF TIME THERE'S DIFFERENT VERIFICATION THAT WE'LL HAVE TO GET FOR WHEN THEY SUBMIT THEIR INVOICES THAT WE WILL REVIEW BEFORE WE CAN SUBMIT.

209
00:44:09.913 --> 00:44:22.058
AND SO PART OF THIS TOO IS THAT WE THEY BECOME WHAT'S CALLED THE SUB RECIPIENT. SO WE ARE THE RECIPIENT OF THE GRANT THERE ARE SUB RECIPIENT SO WE HAVE TO DO SUB RECIPIENT MONITORING ON AN ANNUAL BASIS.

210
00:44:22.058 --> 00:44:32.403
SO AT THE END OF THE YEAR WE'LL GO IN AND SPOT CHECK THEIR FILES TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY'RE COMPLYING WITH ALL THE CDBG REGULATIONS AND GETTING INTO THOSE DETAILS KNOWING

211
00:44:32.403 --> 00:44:40.644
THAT IF HUD DOES COME AND AUDIT US THEN WE CAN POINT TO THEM. THEY WILL HAVE THOSE FILES READILY AVAILABLE AND THEY HAVE TO RETAIN THOSE FOR I

212
00:44:40.644 --> 00:44:55.259
THINK IT'S SEVEN YEARS SO THERE'S TWO STEPS IN PLACE AND PROGRAM GUIDANCE THAT WE HAVE TO FOLLOW WITH COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT LAND GRANT THANK YOU AND YOUR QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS.

213
00:44:55.259 --> 00:45:07.871
ALL RIGHT THEN I WILL BE LOOKING FOR A MOTION TO ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING ENTERING INTO AGREEMENTS FOR PROGRAMING YEAR 2026 COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT PUBLIC

214
00:45:07.871 --> 00:45:18.382
SERVICES SO MOVED MOVED BY COMMISSIONER ROBERTSON SECOND AND SECOND BY COMMISSIONER DOLLINGER ALL IN FAVOR I

215
00:45:18.382 --> 00:45:31.762
MOTION PASSES SIX ZERO. ALL RIGHT NOW WE MOVE ON TO DISCUSSION ITEMS AND EACH AREA ADMINISTRATOR UPDATES.

216
00:45:31.762 --> 00:45:43.940
OKAY. CHAIR AND COMMISSIONERS I HAVE A COUPLE OF FUN UPDATES FOR YOU ALL TONIGHT. FIRST I'LL MENTION A QUICK SHOUT OUT TO THE STAFF WHO

217
00:45:43.940 --> 00:45:54.851
PLANT THE HOME FOR ONE OF THEM BEING MARCUS WHO'S HERE TONIGHT AND THEN WE ALSO HAD SOME SIGNIFICANT SUPPORT FROM CITY AS A DEPARTMENT AND IT WAS A FAIRLY SUCCESSFUL HOME FAIR.

218
00:45:54.851 --> 00:46:06.163
WE MOVED IT BACK THIS YEAR TWO YEARS AGO WAS LOOKING AT OFFSITE ISSUES AND PUT IT BACK AT CIVIC PLAZA. IT WAS WELL ATTENDED, GOT A LOT OF REALLY POSITIVE FEEDBACK FROM THE VENDORS WHO ARE HERE. A LOT OF PEOPLE FELT LIKE THEY

219
00:46:06.163 --> 00:46:17.808
WERE ABLE TO ENGAGE WITH THE COMMUNITY AND THERE WERE SOME FUN ACTIVITIES FOR FOLKS TO DO. IT WAS ALSO AN OPPORTUNITY FOR PEOPLE TO COME AND GET TO KNOW THE CIVIC PLAZA, EXPLORE THE SITE, GO TO THE FRONT COUNTER

220
00:46:17.808 --> 00:46:27.451
WHERE THEY CAN GET SOME OF THEIR QUESTIONS ANSWERED. SO I, I THINK WE ESTIMATED AROUND 7 TO 800 FOLKS IN ATTENDANCE WHICH I THINK IS IS GREAT AND ACTUALLY WAS OUR MOST WELL-ATTENDED AND

221
00:46:27.451 --> 00:46:37.861
SUCCESSFUL AND VERY SINCE PRE-COVID I WOULD SAY IT'S QUITE A SUCCESSFUL EVENT THIS YEAR. SO SHOUT OUT TO OUR STAFF WHO PLANNED THAT AND GREAT JOB AND VERY HAPPY TO HAVE THAT EVENT

222
00:46:37.861 --> 00:46:49.606
RUN SMOOTHLY THIS YEAR. WE ALSO HAVE SO LAST YEAR WE PARTNERED WITH OUR SUSTAINABILITY FOLKS AT THE PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT AND THEY PROVIDED SOME FUNDING SO

223
00:46:49.606 --> 00:47:01.151
THE HRA HAS SOME FUNDING AVAILABLE TO SUPPORT HOME SQUAD ENERGY VISITS AND SO THE HOMEOWNER PAYS HALF AND THE HRA PAYS A HALF. THAT'S A LONG STANDING AGREEMENT WE'VE HAD WITH C, THE CENTER FOR ENERGY AND

224
00:47:01.151 --> 00:47:12.462
ENVIRONMENT SUSTAINABILITY JOINED US LAST YEAR TO COVER THE OTHER HALF SO FOLKS COULD GET FREE HOME ENERGY SQUAD VISITS TO PREPARE THEIR HOME FOR HOME ENERGY EFFICIENCY IN THE BEST WAYS POSSIBLE.

225
00:47:12.462 --> 00:47:23.140
WE ARE PLANNING TO DO THAT PARTNERSHIP AGAIN THIS SUMMER AND SO BETWEEN MAY AND AUGUST I'M NOT SURE IF IT'S STARTED YET. MAYBE IT'S LATE MAY WE SHOULD YOU SHOULD BE SEEING SOME ADVERTISING ABOUT THAT AND THE

226
00:47:23.140 --> 00:47:31.682
COMMUNITY SO FOLKS CAN HAVE SOME COME LOOK AT THEIR HOME AND LET THEM KNOW WHAT ADJUSTMENTS THEY NEED TO MAKE TO BE MORE ENERGY EFFICIENT AND THEN ALONG THOSE LINES THE SUSTAINABILITY FOLKS ALSO

227
00:47:31.682 --> 00:47:44.060
RECOMMENDED YOU KNOW, WE'VE BEEN THINKING A LOT ABOUT VERY OWN PROPERTIES AND CAPITAL PLANNING FOR THEM AND PART OF THAT IS THINKING ABOUT ENERGY EFFICIENCY IMPROVEMENTS. THERE'S A PROGRAM CALLED WELL

228
00:47:44.060 --> 00:47:54.704
WE'RE NOBODY'S QUITE SURE IF WE PRONOUNCE IT LIAR EARLIER BUT L I R E STANDS FOR LOW INCOME RENTAL EFFICIENCY PROGRAM AND SO ESSENTIALLY IT'S A PARTNERSHIP WITH

229
00:47:54.704 --> 00:48:06.216
FRONTIER ENERGY WHICH IS OWNED BY CENTERPOINT OR A PARTNER COMPANY COMPANY OF CENTERPOINT SORRY AND SO THEY CAME IN AND THEY WOULD DO FREE ENERGY

230
00:48:06.216 --> 00:48:17.828
ASSESSMENTS FOR ALL OF THE HRA OWNED HOMES INCLUDING BLOWER TESTS AT 10% OF THE HOMES. AND SO WE WERE ABLE TO WORK WITH THEM TO SAY THAT BECAUSE IT IS A PROGRAM FOR INCOME QUALIFIED RENTERS AND BECAUSE

231
00:48:17.828 --> 00:48:29.206
OUR PROGRAM IS FOR INCOME QUALIFIED RENTERS, WE'RE ABLE TO SAY THAT ALL OF THE HRA HOMES WERE ELIGIBLE THROUGH ONE APPLICATION INSTEAD OF HAVING TO APPLY 41 TIMES. SO THAT WAS GREAT. SO WE'VE BEEN WORKING WITH

232
00:48:29.206 --> 00:48:39.849
THOSE ASSESSMENT CHECKS LOOKING AT THINGS LIKE FURNACE WATER HEATER INSULATION ETC. AND SO THIS IS THE GOAL OF THIS IS TO HELP INFORM CAPITAL PLANNING. I BELIEVE THERE IS ALSO SOME

233
00:48:39.849 --> 00:48:50.259
FUNDING AVAILABLE FROM FRONTIER ENERGY TO MAKE IMPROVEMENTS AND SO WE ARE WORKING ON INTEGRATING THOSE WITH OUR CAPITAL PLANNING PROCESS. WE HAVE THE RESULTS WE'RE STILL REVIEWING THEM TO

234
00:48:50.259 --> 00:49:00.170
DETERMINE NEXT STEPS. SO THAT IS A FUN PROMOTION THAT YOU MIGHT SEE A VIDEO ABOUT ONLINE AT SOME POINT AND THEN I MAYBE I'LL PAUSE THERE

235
00:49:00.170 --> 00:49:11.314
FOR QUESTIONS. OKAY. ON MAY 20TH AT 4 P.M. WE ARE LOOKING TO DO A RIBBON CUTTING AT 93 PARK.

236
00:49:11.314 --> 00:49:23.059
I BELIEVE THAT THAT JUST THE INVITE FOR THAT JUST WENT OUT AT THE END OF LAST WEEK SO YOU SHOULD SEE THAT INVITE IF YOU'RE INTERESTED IN ATTENDING PLEASE LET ME KNOW I MIGHT ASK A COMMISSIONER TO TO MAYBE

237
00:49:23.059 --> 00:49:33.670
GIVE SOME COMMENTS AT THE EVENT SO OH NO LET ME KNOW IF YOU'RE INTERESTED IN THAT. YOU CAN ALSO ACCEPT THE INVITE ONLINE AND THAT'LL BE A GOOD TRIGGER TO LET US KNOW THAT YOU'RE PLANNING TO COME AND

238
00:49:33.670 --> 00:49:46.249
THEN SO ALSO SOME UPDATES ON THE VARIOUS DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS. SO WE HAVE MANY DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS UNDERWAY AS PART

239
00:49:46.249 --> 00:49:57.927
OF THIS BLOOMINGTON AFFORDABLE HOMEOWNERSHIP INITIATIVE HABITAT FOR HUMANITY AS A PARTNER ON FOUR SITES. THEY JUST CLOSED ON PURCHASING THE FIRST TWO AND I BELIEVE THEY'RE STARTING CONSTRUCTION ANY DAY NOW IF THEY HAVEN'T

240
00:49:57.927 --> 00:50:08.739
ALREADY. SO THAT IS A GREAT SUCCESS STORY MOVING FORWARD WITH TWO HOMES ON THOSE SITES WE'RE ALSO WORKING WITH OUTLAW DEVELOPMENT AND MAGNOLIA HOMES ON THEIR SINGLE FAMILY

241
00:50:08.739 --> 00:50:19.549
PROJECT. SO THEY HAVE A TOTAL OF SIX HOMES OVER FOUR LOTS BETWEEN THE TWO DEVELOPERS AND THEN WE WERE ABLE TO CLOSE ON THE ST MARK'S SITE. WE WERE ABLE TO RESOLVE THE ISSUES WITH THE CELL TOWER.

242
00:50:19.549 --> 00:50:31.394
YES, THAT WAS AN INTERESTING EXPERIENCE AND SO WE'RE MOVING FORWARD WITH PLANNING IT. WE'LL NEED A ROAD FOR ROAD CONSTRUCTION AND WE'RE LOOKING AT GETTING INTO DEVELOPER SELECTION VERY SOON AND SO WE

243
00:50:31.394 --> 00:50:42.738
HAVE A LOT OF EXCITING PROJECTS. I WILL SAY IN SOME OF THESE PROJECTS WE'RE WORKING ON NOW WITH OUTLAW AND WITH MAGNOLIA WE ARE SEEING SOME OF THE IMPACT OF GLOBAL FORCES AND WE'RE SEEING SOME RISE IN THE

244
00:50:42.738 --> 00:50:53.516
GAPS. SO THESE HAVE A A CAPPED PRICE THAT WE CAN SELL THEM FOR BECAUSE THEY'RE CAPPED AT A CERTAIN INCOME AND SO WE'RE SEEING SOME COST RISES. SO WE ARE WORKING WITH THEM ON

245
00:50:53.516 --> 00:51:05.262
REDUCING THE SIZE OF THAT GAP AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE THROUGH METHODS SUCH AS COST ENGINEERING EVEN LOOKING AT THE SIZE OF THE HOME AND REALLY TRYING TO WORK WITH THEM TO REDUCE THE GAP AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, WE EXPECT TO SEE

246
00:51:05.262 --> 00:51:16.239
1 OR 2 OF THOSE COMING THROUGH IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF MONTHS HERE. SO THEY ARE THERE ARE LARGE GAPS BUT I THINK WE CAN WE'RE WORKING WITH THEM TO TRY TO GET THAT DONE. SO THE LAST THING I HAVE IS

247
00:51:16.239 --> 00:51:28.752
CITY COUNCIL ITEMS. WE HAD THE ANNUAL THE BIG ANNUAL ACTION PLAN WAS APPROVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL ON APRIL 13TH AND THEN THE SALT WE HAD TO DO A

248
00:51:28.752 --> 00:51:40.163
CODE AMENDMENT FOR THE CELL TOWER AND THAT WENT THROUGH JUST LAST LAST WEEK MAY 4TH. SO THAT WAS ALSO APPROVED AND THEN WE HAVE AN ITEM ON CONSENT ON MAY 18TH WHICH IS EVERY THREE YEARS WE'RE

249
00:51:40.163 --> 00:51:51.507
REQUIRED TO LET THE COUNTY KNOW THAT WE WANT TO KEEP RECEIVING CITY LEAGUE FUNDS. AND SO WE ANTICIPATE WE'RE PLANNING TO USE THE SAME PROCESS IN THE SAME KIND OF SET UP AND IN TERMS

250
00:51:51.507 --> 00:52:01.685
OF ADMINISTERING THE FUNDS. SO IT IS A CONSENT ITEM TO JUST LET THE COUNTY KNOW THAT WE'RE CONTINUING ON AS AS WE ARE NOW. SO NO CHANGES THERE AND THAT IS ALL I HAVE IN TERMS

251
00:52:01.685 --> 00:52:12.829
OF UPDATES. I MEAN QUESTIONS COMMISSIONER WHO? KIM THANK YOU CHAIR. I JUST HAD ONE QUICK QUESTION THAT WITH WORKING WITH HABITAT FOR HUMANITY ON THOSE COUPLE OF HOUSES WAS THAT THE

252
00:52:12.829 --> 00:52:26.176
MINORITY OWNED PROPERTY INITIATIVE I DON'T KNOW IF PEOPLE HAVE SEEN THE NEWS BUT OBVIOUSLY BLACK HOME OWNERSHIP IN THE TWIN CITIES HAS BEEN

253
00:52:26.176 --> 00:52:36.452
DROPPING SIGNIFICANTLY AND I THOUGHT WE HAD SOME SORT OF INITIATIVE WITH THEM. SO I JUST WAS KIND OF WONDERING IF THAT'S THE SAME THING IF I'M IF WE'RE ON THE SAME PAGE OR JUST TRYING TO REFRESH SORRY. YEAH. CHAIR COMMISSIONERS, WE HAVE

254
00:52:36.452 --> 00:52:47.096
WE WORK WITH HABITAT IN A MULTIPLE MULTIPLE VARIETY OF WAYS THAT WAS NOT THIS PARTICULAR PROJECT. WE DO WORK WITH THEM ON A DOWN PAYMENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM WHICH WE'RE ALSO ANTICIPATING TO HAVE HABITAT COMMON GIVE A

255
00:52:47.096 --> 00:52:58.074
PRESENTATION ON THEIR PROGRESS ON THAT. THIS WAS FOR THE BLOOMINGTON AFFORDABLE HOMEOWNERSHIP PROGRAM WHICH IS THERE THEY'RE DEVELOPING NEW HOMES AS OPPOSED TO FINANCING DOWNPAYMENT ASSISTANCE. SO BUT YES, WE WORK WITH

256
00:52:58.074 --> 00:53:08.918
HABITAT IN MULTIPLE DIFFERENT AVENUES. SO WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT PARTICULAR GRANT THAT WAS OFFERED? I MEAN IT WAS ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO WE APPROVED A CERTAIN PERCENTAGE. SO WHAT WOULD HAPPEN TO THAT?

257
00:53:08.918 --> 00:53:20.563
>> SO HABITAT HAS CONTINUED FORWARD WITH ADMINISTERING THE LOANS AND THEN OUR GOAL IS TO COME TO THE HRA. WE MIGHT BE PROPOSING SOME AMENDMENTS TO THE CONTRACT IN TERMS OF FINANCING SOURCE

258
00:53:20.563 --> 00:53:32.275
BUT ALSO WILL GIVE AN UPDATE TO WHERE THE HOW THE LOANS THAT HABITAT HAS ISSUED OVER THE LAST YEAR AND A HALF. BUT I GUESS I'M ASKING IS IT STILL ADDRESSING THOSE FAMILIES SPECIFICALLY AFRICAN AMERICAN FAMILIES?

259
00:53:32.275 --> 00:53:43.019
IT THAT'S WHAT THAT'S WHAT I'M INTERESTED IN SPECIFICALLY. YES. IF WE CAN GET A REPORT ON THAT, BE GREAT. YES, I CAN PROVIDE AN UPDATE ON THAT TO THE BOARD. YES.

260
00:53:43.019 --> 00:53:56.733
OKAY. UM GO AHEAD. SO I'M JUST SAYING FOR ME I FEEL A LITTLE DISJOINTED

261
00:53:56.733 --> 00:54:07.877
BECAUSE WE'VE BEEN ABSENT FROM MEETING FOR SO LONG. INITIALLY WE WENT FROM TWO MEETINGS DOWN TO ONE FOR THE SOLE PURPOSE OF I GUESS BECOMING A GREATER MORE EFFICIENT AND I DON'T FEEL

262
00:54:07.877 --> 00:54:19.188
THAT WAY. I FEEL KIND OF OUT OF THE LOOP AND I'M I'M NOT SURE IF I'M THE ONLY PERSON THAT FEELS THAT WAY BUT OUR LAST MEETING AS A BOARD THIS IS A REPORT WAS IN FEBRUARY.

263
00:54:19.188 --> 00:54:29.766
WE HAD A JOINT MEETING OF ALL THE OTHER BOARDS IN MARCH AND WE DIDN'T HAVE ANYTHING IN AUGUST AND NOW WE'RE MEETING ONCE THIS MONTH SO I

264
00:54:29.766 --> 00:54:41.811
PERSONALLY WOULD LIKE TO REVISIT OUR MEETINGS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE ADEQUATE NUMBER ON THE ON THE CALENDAR SO WE DON'T HAVE THESE GAPS.

265
00:54:41.811 --> 00:54:50.320
YEAH, SURE. YES. SORRY. WELL CHAIR COMMISSIONERS I'LL JUST SAY SO THE HOA HAS APPROVED A NUMBER OF REALLY SIGNIFICANT INITIATIVES FOR OUR STAFF THAT ARE CURRENTLY

266
00:54:50.320 --> 00:55:01.598
MANAGING A LOT OF DIFFERENT PROJECTS RIGHT NOW AND SO THERE WERE A LOT OF APPROVALS THAT WENT THROUGH AND NOW STAFF IS WORKING HARD ON IMPLEMENTING AS YOU CAN HEAR FROM ALL OF OUR UPDATES IN THE WORK GOING ON THERE IS A LOT

267
00:55:01.598 --> 00:55:11.541
OF WORK HAPPENING NOT ALL A LOT OF IT HAS RECEIVED PRIOR BOARD AUTHORIZATION SO WE ARE WORKING TO CONTINUE TO BRING UPDATES AND AMENDMENTS TO THE BOARD AS REQUIRED AND ALSO THE

268
00:55:11.541 --> 00:55:23.753
MEETING CADENCE I WAS STILL RECOMMENDED ONCE A MONTH MEANING OF COURSE THAT'S THE BOARD'S DECISION BUT I DO BELIEVE THAT THIS IS ADEQUATE TO COVER THE BOARD AUTHORITY APPROVALS. I'M HAPPY TO MEET WITH ANY

269
00:55:23.753 --> 00:55:33.930
COMMISSIONERS OUTSIDE OF BOARD MEETINGS AND GIVE CONTINUED UPDATES AND PROGRESS CHECK INS. I UNDERSTAND IT'S A LITTLE BIT OF A SHIFT FROM THE BOARD'S PRACTICE PREVIOUSLY.

270
00:55:33.930 --> 00:55:45.308
COMMISSIONER CARTER I WONDER IF MAYBE INSTEAD OF ADDING ANOTHER MEETING BACK IN AT LEAST MAYBE SENDING AN EMAIL OUT TO THE BOARD JUST SAYING HERE ARE SOME KEY UPDATES SO

271
00:55:45.308 --> 00:55:55.151
THAT WE SO WE HAVE THAT KIND OF COMMUNICATION AND CONNECTION MORE THAN ONCE A MONTH. YEAH. SO MAYBE MAYBE THAT COULD BE LIKE A FIRST STEP IN SEEING IF

272
00:55:55.151 --> 00:56:06.462
THAT HELPS AND THEN HAVING THAT GAP I THINK JUST MAKES IT FEEL MORE PRONOUNCED. I THINK YOU KNOW THE GAP IN THE MEETINGS BUT I MEAN I WOULD BE COMFORTABLE CONTINUING THE ONCE A MONTH BUT I DO THINK HAVING MAYBE

273
00:56:06.462 --> 00:56:19.943
SOME ADDITIONAL LIKE A MONTH LIKE A MONTHLY NEWSLETTER THAT'S TWO WEEKS LIKE RIGHT NOW. YEAH, HALFWAY YEAH I, I LIKE

274
00:56:19.943 --> 00:56:31.220
THAT IDEA. I MEAN IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE FANCY, RIGHT? JUST SAY HERE'S YOU KNOW TOP TEN THINGS WE'RE DOING OR WHATEVER. I THINK IT WOULD MAKE A BETTER CONNECTION BUT I, I WOULD LIKE

275
00:56:31.220 --> 00:56:41.598
TO CONTINUE TO TRY THE MEETINGS ONCE A MONTH SO ALL RIGHT. >> WELL, WE HAVE REACHED THE

276
00:56:41.598 --> 00:56:53.509
END OF OUR AGENDA SO MAY I HAVE A MOTION TO ADJOURN THE TUESDAY MAY 12TH A BOARD MEETING SOMEWHAT MOVED BY

277
00:56:53.509 --> 00:57:06.523
COMMISSIONER WHO CAME SECOND SECOND BY COMMISSIONER ROBERTSON. ALL IN FAVOR I MOTION PASSES SIX ZERO. THANK YOU
