36
00:07:35.955 --> 00:07:48.935
ANYONE ELSE HAVE ANY. OPENING REMARKS? ALL RIGHT. >> AND, UM, WE HAVE A PRESENTATION, CHIEF. YES. YES. CAN TAKE IT AWAY. SO WE'RE GOING TO PROVIDE A

37
00:07:48.935 --> 00:08:01.380
QUICK OVERVIEW OF THE THE WORK UP GRANT PROGRAM. UM, HOPEFULLY I CAN GET THIS. AWESOME. SO THE PURPOSE OF THE GRANT PROGRAM WAS IS SPECIFICALLY TO ENHANCE SECURITY AND PREPAREDNESS FOR THE 2026 WORLD

38
00:08:01.380 --> 00:08:11.157
CUP EVENTS BEING HELD IN UNITED STATES. THE GRANT IS ADMINISTERED BY THE DHS DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY THROUGH TO TO FEMA AND

39
00:08:11.157 --> 00:08:24.003
THROUGH FEMA'S GRANT PROGRAMS. IT'S A STANDALONE ONE TIME FEDERAL GRANT PROGRAM TO SUPPORT THE SAFE EXECUTION OF THE 78 MATCHES THAT HAVE TAKEN PLACE IN THE 11 HOST

40
00:08:24.003 --> 00:08:37.884
CITIES OVER 39 DAYS. SO A LITTLE UM, SCOPE ON THE FUNDING PROCESS AND HOW IT ALL CAME ABOUT. SO THERE WERE $625 MILLION THAT

41
00:08:37.884 --> 00:08:50.630
WAS AVAILABLE THROUGH FEMA. THAT WAS FOR THE 11 HOST CITIES 625 MILLION. THAT FUNDING WAS THEN PASSED FROM FEMA. WE THE CITY OF THE STATE OF MASSACHUSETTS GOT 46 MILLION

42
00:08:50.630 --> 00:09:02.241
PASS FROM FEMA TO THE STATE AGENCY WHICH IS FS FS IS OUR UM STATE ADMINISTRATING AGENCY. SO THAT 46,000,625 ORIGINALLY THE STATE OF MASSACHUSETTS WAS

43
00:09:02.241 --> 00:09:14.086
AWARDED 46 THE CITY OF BOSTON. WELL, FIRST OF ALL THAT MONEY WAS FUNDED FOR THIS YEAR FOR THIS GRANT. THERE WAS A DIFFERENT PROCESS B

44
00:09:14.086 --> 00:09:26.632
26 IS HAD BECOME THE GRANT ADMINISTRATOR THAT THERE'S NORMALLY NOT IN GRANT ADMINISTRATIVE BETWEEN THE CITY OF BOSTON AND THE STATE. THIS IS A DIFFERENT MANDATE UH

45
00:09:26.632 --> 00:09:38.377
OBVIOUSLY DIFFERENT TO HOW WE OPERATE. WE OPERATE A TRADITION. SO BOSTON 26 IS NOT A GRANT ADMINISTRATIVE FOR ALL OF THE THE SUB RECIPIENTS. AND NOW THE CITY OF BOSTON THEN BECOMES A SUB RECIPIENT FOR

46
00:09:38.377 --> 00:09:50.823
THAT GRANT. SO WE STARTED SIX 25,000,046 MILLION TO THE STATE OF MASSACHUSETTS, THEN THE CITY OF BOSTON. WE WERE AWARDED 12,572,604.

47
00:09:50.823 --> 00:10:02.168
SO JUST SO YOU CAN SEE HOW FAR HOW IT ORIGINATED AND HOW IT GOT BROKEN DOWN BY CITY BY MY STATE AND THEN WHAT WE GOT AS A SUB RECIPIENT. SO SOME OF THE PURPOSE THE USES

48
00:10:02.168 --> 00:10:14.213
JUST BRIEFLY SUPPORT PUBLIC SAFETY SECURITY IN EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS OPERATIONS. OBVIOUSLY THE FAN WALKS A FAN FEST UM WATCH PARTIES RELATED EVENTS. UM FUNDING IS ALSO GOING TO BE

49
00:10:14.213 --> 00:10:25.691
USED OPERATIONAL OVER TIME IS UH SEARCH POLICE AND POLICE FIRE EMS UH EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL. THE INCREASE IN STAFFING ENHANCES EMERGENCY RESPONSE CAPABILITIES THROUGH OUR

50
00:10:25.691 --> 00:10:36.402
EMERGENCY SERVICES, OUR UM EMERGENCY CENTERS ACTIVATION CENTER, UNIFIED COMMAND COORDINATION, INTELLIGENCE SHARING AND SO ON AND SO FORTH. IT ALSO STRENGTHEN COORDINATION AMONG LOCAL, STATE, FEDERAL HEALTH, TRANSPORTATION AND

51
00:10:36.402 --> 00:10:48.414
PRIVATE SAFETY PARTNERS JUST TO MAKE SURE THAT WE SECURITY ENVIRONMENT FOR RESIDENTS, VISITORS, TEAMS, DIGNITARIES, INTERNATIONAL ATTENDEES DURING THE TOURNAMENT PERIOD.

52
00:10:48.414 --> 00:10:59.558
SORRY I WAS READING IT AND IT CHANGES SO THE GRANT BUDGET. THIS IS HOW IT KIND OF BROKE DOWN HOW WE BROKE DOWN THE 12 UM 12.5 MILLION THAT WE WERE AWARDED.

53
00:10:59.558 --> 00:11:10.903
SO AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE PHOTO SEE THE FROM THE FROM A SLIDE IF ANYBODY HAS ANY QUESTIONS AS IT RELATES TO HOW BUT WE CAN PRETTY MUCH SEE THAT HOW WE KIND OF BROKE DOWN

54
00:11:10.903 --> 00:11:22.481
OF USES GRANT ALLOCATION BY DEPARTMENT HERE FROM THIS SLIDE. IN ROW. JUST TO WRAP IT UP. WE ARE WE ARE THE CITY'S LEAD AGENCY FOR INTERAGENCY

58
00:11:57.450 --> 00:12:09.962

BATHROOMS AND AIRPORTS PUTTING UP MORE NOTICES ABOUT WHAT TO DO. AND SO I JUST WANT TO ENCOURAGE THAT TO CONTINUE TO HAPPEN SO THAT FOLKS WHO ARE FALL VICTIM, UM, KNOW WHAT RESOURCES EXIST. I THINK THAT'S ONE OF THE MAJOR

97
00:19:38.010 --> 00:19:50.289
WAYS THAT WE CAN TAKE THAT ISSUE. UM, I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS THE RIGHT PANEL FOR THE QUESTION ON DO WE KNOW EXACTLY HOW FAN FEST REGISTRATION IS GOING TO WORK FOR THE CITY HALL FAN FEST? SO IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT.

98
00:19:50.289 --> 00:20:03.602

127
00:25:26.558 --> 00:25:39.504

129
00:25:51.416 --> 00:26:04.563
LET'S SAY FIRE DOES UNDERSTAND IS THAT ABLE TO GO TO POLICE OR VICE VERSA? IT'S UH. YOU KNOW, UH I JUST WANT TO SEE WHAT FLEXIBILITY WE HAVE WITHIN THE GRANT ITSELF. UM, I MEAN WE.

130
00:26:04.563 --> 00:26:13.672
>> DON'T HAVE POSTPARTUM. YEP. CHIEF. SO MAYBE SO MAYBE I CAN SHED SOME LIGHT ON ON THE WHOLE GRANT PROCESS AND HOW THE NUMBERS CAME ABOUT. SO BASICALLY WHEN THE GRANT WAS

131
00:26:13.672 --> 00:26:26.484
ANNOUNCED IN NOVEMBER, UM, THERE WERE A LOT OF UNKNOWNS. THERE ARE STILL A. >> LOT. OF UM THERE'S STILL A LOT OF UNKNOWNS TODAY. SO WHEN WE FIRST THE ASSUMPTION WAS THAT BECAUSE IF YOU LOOK AT MY ONE OF MY SLIDES SAID THAT

00:26:26.484 --> 00:26:41.333
WE HAD PUT IN FOR 40 WERE THE STATE GOT 46 I THINK BOSTON PUT IN FOR 26. WE GOT. 12.5 FOR UH. >> CLOSE TO 13. SO ORIGINALLY IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A 39 DAY ACTIVATION. THEN WE. >> CUT DOWN THE DAYS TO 17.

133
00:26:41.333 --> 00:26:52.410
SO THE NUMBERS THAT YOU SEE WERE BASED ON OPERATIONAL NUMBERS. THOSE ARE PROJECTED BASED ON THE STAFFING LEVELS PROJECTED FOR THE AMOUNT OF DAYS THAT WE WERE GOING TO BE OPERATIONAL AND THAT'S HOW WE CAME UP WITH. >> THOSE NUMBERS.

134
00:26:52.410 --> 00:27:04.723
SO IF YOU SEE KEVIN AND COURTNEY HERE FROM BOSTON FIRE SO ALL OF THE WE WE CONSULTED WITH THE. UM THE. FOLKS FROM EVERY ORGANIZATION POLICE, FIRE EMS UH AND OEM

135
00:27:04.723 --> 00:27:15.400
OURSELVES AND WE TALKED THROUGH HEY OPERATIONALLY WHAT WOULD YOU ASSUME IT WOULD COST IF WE IF WE DID THIS FOR 17 DAYS BASED ON THE AMOUNT OF BODIES THAT YOU NEED? THAT'S WHERE THE NUMBERS CAME FROM.

136
00:27:15.400 --> 00:27:27.779
AND THIS IS A SECURITY GRID AND THE POLICE DEPARTMENT IS THE SECURITY FORCE HERE IN THE CITY, YOU KNOW SO THE ASSUMPTION IS IS THAT THAT'S WHY OBVIOUSLY THAT MOST OF THE RESOURCES WENT. TO CHARITIES. >> IT WOULD PROBABLY NOT MAKE

137
00:27:27.779 --> 00:27:38.490
SENSE. I MEAN I THINK YOU KNOW I APPRECIATE THAT FLAHERTY. UM AND THEN I THINK JUST MY FINAL QUESTIONS LAST COMMENT PROBABLY MORE OF A COMMENT I THINK COUNSELOR DIGITAL UH

148
00:29:41.012 --> 00:29:53.625
FOR SOMETHING TO ATTEND OR UH SECURITY MEASURES OF THAT SUCH . I DIDN'T YOU KNOW I DIDN'T I DIDN'T HAVE ACCESS TO ALL THE ORIGINAL DOCUMENTS WHEN THEY COME OUT PUT THEM OUT BUT TRADITIONALLY THOSE GRANTS DON'T ALLOW FOR THAT. YEAH.

149
00:29:53.625 --> 00:30:05.937

150
00:30:05.937 --> 00:30:17.248
MOST GRANTS IF THERE'S ANY MONEY THAT IS UNSPENT IT DOES JUST NOT GET REIMBURSED. YEAH. SO ALTHOUGH WE MIGHT BE ELIGIBLE YOU KNOW FOR THE YOU KNOW MILLIONS THAT WE RECEIVED WE WILL ONLY RECOVER WHAT WE

151
00:30:17.248 --> 00:30:31.062

152
00:30:31.062 --> 00:30:44.142
BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN THAT SECURITY. FOR SOME WATCH PARTIES COULD BE A REIMBURSABLE ITEM. CORRECT? >> IT SEEMS LIKE IT WOULD FIT THE SCOPE BUT AGAIN WOULD HAVE TO CHECK AND GET BACK TO YOU ON THAT ONE. YEP. >> NO THAT'S GREAT. WELL UM.

155
00:31:07.832 --> 00:31:18.610

156
00:31:18.610 --> 00:31:30.889
UM WHEN WE TALK ABOUT PERSONNEL IS THERE DO YOU ENVISION THERE BEING PERSONNEL OUTSIDE OF BPD UH OUTSIDE OF BOSTON POLICE DEPARTMENT BROUGHT IN IN TERMS OF POLICE OFFICERS, I BELIEVE THIS WAS A QUESTION OR SOME THAT WAS MENTIONED AT THE LAST

157
00:31:30.889 --> 00:31:42.800
