45
00:10:26.092 --> 00:10:38.404
BOY FROM HAITI. UM, I SAY MY FATHER GAVE ME LIFE TWICE. GAVE ME LIFE WHEN THE. BIRTH ME WITH MY MOTHER AND THE LIFE THAT HE GAVE ME WHEN I CAME HERE TO THE UNITED STATES.

46
00:10:38.404 --> 00:10:49.115
I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT THAT I ACKNOWLEDGE, UM, ALL THE THINGS THAT I RECEIVED FROM THIS COUNTRY. I WANT TO THANK THE CITY OF BOSTON FOR ALLOWING ME TO SERVE SERVE IN THE WAY THAT

47
00:10:49.115 --> 00:10:59.759
REALLY SPOKE TO WHO I AM AS A PERSON. I THINK POLICING ALL TOO OFTEN SOMETIMES PEOPLE COME IN AND THEY THINK THEY HAVE TO FIT INTO THE ROLE OF BEING A POLICE OFFICER. FOR ME IT WAS ALWAYS ABOUT

48
00:10:59.759 --> 00:11:11.370
FITTING, MAKING SURE THAT I REMAIN TRUE TO WHO I WAS AND I AM AND POLICE IN THAT WAY, RIGHT? I THINK OFTENTIMES POLICING IS A JOB. IT'S NOT WHO WE ARE.

49
00:11:11.370 --> 00:11:21.847
I MADE SURE THAT I NEVER LOST MYSELF IN POLICING RIGHT. I THINK IF WE ARE REALLY INVESTED IN CHANGING POLICING AS IT HISTORICALLY HAS BEEN THAT WE HAVE TO COME IN AND BE

50
00:11:21.847 --> 00:11:32.958
WHO WE ARE NOT ALLOW POLICING TO CHANGES AND TO THESE HISTORICAL NOTIONS OF WHAT A POLICE OFFICER IS. UM, OVER THE COURSE OF MY 30 YEARS OF PUBLIC SERVICE SERVICE

51
00:11:32.958 --> 00:11:45.104
AS A SOCIAL WORKER, A PROBATION OFFICER NOT EVEN COUNTING THE WORK I DID WHEN I WAS IN COLLEGE UM, RUNNING ADVANCED PREVENTION PROGRAM TUTORING MENTORING PROGRAM. I'VE BEEN BLESSED TO MEET A LOT

52
00:11:45.104 --> 00:11:55.915
OF PEOPLE, UM, ALL OF WHOM HAVE IMPACTED ME IN IN SOME WAY. RIGHT. AND I THINK FOR ME, ONE OF THE THINGS I WILL CONTINUE TO TALK ABOUT I TALKED ABOUT IT BRIEFLY WAS UM THE WORK THAT WE DO IN

53
00:11:55.915 --> 00:12:07.927
POLICING IS IT'S POLICING BUT THE WORK THAT WE NEED TO DO AS A SOCIETY REALLY SPEAKS TO SOCIAL ENGAGEMENT PULLING PEOPLE IN. UH, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE NEVER SAY IF SOMEBODY COMMITS A

54
00:12:07.927 --> 00:12:19.605
CRIME, WE NEVER SAY WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO INCARCERATE THEM. NEVER. RIGHT. BUT WE OFTENTIMES SAY WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO INVEST IN FAMILIES. I KNOW AS A SOCIAL WORKER I WOULD WALK INTO PEOPLE'S HOMES

55
00:12:19.605 --> 00:12:29.882
AND I COULD ALREADY SOMEWHAT PREDICT WHERE THESE YOUNG PEOPLE WERE GOING TO BE. AND UNFORTUNATELY I'VE SEEN TOO MANY OF THOSE YOUNG PEOPLE COME IN THROUGH THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM. I'VE SEEN THEM BURIED.

56
00:12:29.882 --> 00:12:42.027
I'VE SEEN THEM INCARCERATED. SO I BESEECH I BEG OF YOU TO CONTINUE TO DO THE WORK INVESTING IN PEOPLE UM, WHILE POLICING IS IMPORTANT BUT THE WORK OF INVESTING IN PEOPLE IS WHAT REALLY MATTERS.

57
00:12:42.027 --> 00:12:58.010
IF WE DO THE WORK IN INVESTING IN PEOPLE THEN THEY'LL BE LESS. >> WE'LL HAVE. TO INVEST A LOT. >> LESS EMPLOYEES. I DON'T WANT. >> US STANDING ON A SOAPBOX. I WANT TO THANK EVERYBODY WHO'S HERE FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART. I KNOW THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO WANTED TO BE HERE COULDN'T

58
00:12:58.010 --> 00:13:09.121
BECAUSE OF LIFE CIRCUMSTANCES AND THOSE PEOPLE I THANK THEM TOO BECAUSE WE KNOW PEOPLE SHOW UP FOR US. THEY HAVE PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN INCREDIBLY IMPACTFUL UH AND HELPED ME ESPECIALLY OVER THE LAST TWO YEARS WHEN I WENT

59
00:13:09.121 --> 00:13:20.866
THROUGH A TOUGH TIME. THIS IS NOT HOW I WANTED IT TO FINISH BUT THIS IS THE RIGHT WAY FOR ME TO FINISH. SO UM I WALK AWAY WITHOUT ANY REGRETS, WITHOUT ANY CONSTERNATION ABOUT WHO I AM,

60
00:13:20.866 --> 00:13:31.010
HOW I BEHAVE AS A POLICE OFFICER. UM, THERE ARE A LOT OF THINGS THAT I LEARNED ALONG THE WAY. OF COURSE HINDSIGHT IS 2020 I THERE'S SOME THINGS I WOULD HAVE DONE DIFFERENTLY. ABSOLUTELY. BUT THE THINGS THAT REALLY

61
00:13:31.010 --> 00:13:41.754

308
01:05:18.114 --> 01:05:30.459
COMMUNITY POLICING EVERY DAY OUR OFFICERS, SERGEANTS, CAPTAINS, LIEUTENANTS AND COMMUNITY SERVICE OFFICERS WORK TO BUILD RELATIONSHIPS AND EARN THE TRUST OF THE NEIGHBORHOODS THEY SERVE TO HAVE THE BEST

309
01:05:30.459 --> 01:05:42.271
POLICE DEPARTMENT IN THE COUNTRY'S COUNTRY MEANS WE CANNOT BE AFRAID TO CONSTANTLY REVIEW OUR POLICIES MATTER WHETHER THEY ARE MEETING THEIR INTENDED PURPOSES AND MAKE CHANGES WHEN THEY ARE NOT.

310
01:05:42.271 --> 01:05:53.816
ACCOUNTABILITY IS PUBLIC SAFETY. TRANSPARENCY IS PUBLIC SAFETY. THESE ARE THE TOOLS THAT BUILD TRUST BETWEEN OFFICERS AND THE COMMUNITIES THEY HAVE SWORN TO PROTECT.

311
01:05:53.816 --> 01:06:04.961
THEY HELP THE PUBLIC UNDERSTAND THE DIFFICULT ROLE OFFICERS CARRY AND GIVE RESIDENTS CONFIDENCE THAT THE DEPARTMENT IS DOING EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO ENSURE THAT THE INTEGRITY

312
01:06:04.961 --> 01:06:16.072
OF THE DEPARTMENT TRANSPARENCY AND ACCOUNTABILITY ARE THE BUILDING BLOCKS FOR PUBLIC SAFETY. THE CHANGES THIS ORDINANCE MAKES IN OPEN STRENGTHENS THOSE

313
01:06:16.072 --> 01:06:27.083
PRINCIPLES AND PUTS THEM INTO PRACTICE. IT ESTABLISHES CLEAR TIMELINES FOR RELEASING BODY WORN CAMERA AND DASHBOARD CAMERA FOOTAGE AFTER INCIDENTS OF PUBLIC

314
01:06:27.083 --> 01:06:38.427
INTEREST. IT IMPROVES COORDINATION WITH POLICE AT THE STATE LEVEL. IT ALSO REQUIRES GREATER TRANSPARENCY AROUND CIVIL LAWSUITS AND SETTLEMENTS SO THAT WE CAN IDENTIFY PATTERNS,

315
01:06:38.427 --> 01:06:50.072
CORRECT POLICY FAILURES AND UNDERSTAND HOW MISCONDUCT IS COSTING TAXPAYERS. THIS ORDINANCE IS ABOUT ENSURING THAT PUBLIC SAFETY IN BOSTON IS TRULY THE BEST IN THE

316
01:06:50.072 --> 01:07:01.984
NATION, THAT THE PUBLIC HAS A CLEAR UNDERSTANDING OF PROTOCOLS AND WHEN INCIDENTS OF PUBLIC INTEREST ARISE THAT WE ARE ALL RECEIVING THE FACTS. I WANT TO THANK ALL THE EXPERTS AND ADVOCATES WHO HAVE TOOK THE

317
01:07:01.984 --> 01:07:12.161
TIME TO MEET WITH MY OFFICE AND WORK WITH US ON THIS ORDINANCE ATTORNEY HOWARD FRIEDMAN, JAMAL CRAWFORD, YVONNE ESPO, NOSA

318
01:07:12.161 --> 01:07:23.773

319
01:07:23.773 --> 01:07:35.885
INCLUDING CHICAGO AND THE RECENTLY PASSED LAW IN NEW YORK . THIS ORDINANCE CHANGE AIMS TO PUT US HERE IN THE CITY OF BOSTON ON PAR WITH POLICIES AND THOSE OTHER MAJOR CITIES I

320
01:07:35.885 --> 01:07:46.028
KNOW MY COLLEAGUE COUNCILOR CULPEPER UH, FILED AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND NOTEPAD AS WELL WHICH WE'LL BE HEARING ABOUT VERY SOON. AND I THINK BOTH OF THESE FILINGS AND ORDINANCES TOGETHER

321
01:07:46.028 --> 01:07:58.074
WILL ADDRESS AND ADDRESS A LOT OF OUR SHARED GOALS. AND I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO WORKING WITH EVERYONE AND ALL THE STAKEHOLDERS TO ADVANCE THE CHANGES AND TO STRENGTHEN PUBLIC ACCOUNTABILITY AND TRANSPARENCY HERE IN THE CITY

322
01:07:58.074 --> 01:08:09.118
OF BOSTON. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. >> COUNCILOR WORRELL WOULD ANYONE LIKE TO ADD THEIR NAME COUNCILOR CULPEPER COUNCILOR DURKAN COUNCILOR FITZGERALD COUNCILOR FLYNN. COUNCIL. TELEVISION COUNCILOR.

323
01:08:09.118 --> 01:08:20.596
MURPHY, PATRICK PEPEN COUNCILOR WEBER AND PLEASE OF THE CHAIR. THANK YOU. DOCKET NUMBER 1412 WILL BE REFERRED TO THE COMMITTEE ON GOVERNMENT OPERATIONS.

324
01:08:20.596 --> 01:08:33.843
MR COOK, CAN YOU PLEASE READ DOCKET 1413. >> SO I CAN HAVE A1413 COUNCILOR CULPEPER FOR THE FOLLOWING ORDINANCE TO AMEND THE OFFICE OF POLICE ACCOUNTABILITY AND TRANSPARENCY .

325
01:08:33.843 --> 01:08:45.421
CHAIR RECOGNIZES COUNCILOR CULPEPER COUNCIL YOU HAVE THE FLOOR. THANK YOU, MADAM PRESIDENT. FIRST I WANT TO THANK MY COLLEAGUE COUNCILOR WORRELL FOR ITS PARTNERSHIP AND LEADERSHIP

326
01:08:45.421 --> 01:08:55.598
ON THE POLICE ACCOUNTABILITY. WELL, OUR ORDINANCES APPROACH THIS ISSUE FROM DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVES. THEY ARE ROOTED IN THE SAME PRINCIPLE THAT PUBLIC TRUST HAS

327
01:08:55.598 --> 01:09:07.343
EARNED THROUGH TRANSPARENCY AND ACCOUNTABILITY. CONSTABLE ROSE ORDINANCE TAKES AN IMPORTANT STEP TOWARD INCREASING PUBLIC TRANSPARENCY AROUND CRITICAL INCIDENTS

328
01:09:07.343 --> 01:09:18.387
INVOLVING BODY WORN CAMERA FOOTAGE. MY ORDINANCE FAILS TO FOCUS IS ON SOMETHING EQUALLY IMPORTANT STRENGTHENING THE INSTITUTION RESPONSIBILITY FOR OVERSIGHT

329
01:09:18.387 --> 01:09:30.633
ITSELF SAID DIFFERENTLY MY FOLLOWING FOCUSES ON OPERATIONAL ACCOUNTABILITY BEFORE, DURING AND AFTER EVERY INVESTIGATION. THE QUESTION I ASKED WAS SIMPLE

330
01:09:30.633 --> 01:09:42.077
IF OPEN IS THE CITY INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTABILITY OFFICE DO WE HAVE THE SYSTEMS IN PLACE TO ENSURE IT CAN DO ITS JOB EFFECTIVELY? TOO OFTEN ACCOUNTABILITY

331
01:09:42.077 --> 01:09:53.889
DOESN'T DOESN'T FAIL BECAUSE PEOPLE LIKE GOOD INTENTION. IT FAILS BECAUSE INVESTIGATIONS TAKE TOO LONG. DEADLINES ARE UNCLEAR, INFORMATION ISN'T SHARED CASES

332
01:09:53.889 --> 01:10:05.167
SIT AND RESOLVE. RESIDENTS LOSE CONFIDENCE NOT ONLY IN THE OUTCOME BUT IN THE PROCESS ITSELF MY OWN AND SEEKS TO ADDRESS THOSE STRUCTURAL CHALLENGES.

333
01:10:05.167 --> 01:10:15.311
IT ESTABLISHES CLEAR TIMELINES FOR INVESTIGATIONS. IT REQUIRES GREATER PUBLIC REPORTING SO RESIDENTS UNDERSTAND WHERE CASES STAND. IT LIMITS UNNECESSARY DELAYS

334
01:10:15.311 --> 01:10:27.489
WHEN CRIMINAL INVESTIGATIONS ARE OCCURRING WHILE STILL RESPECTING DUE PROCESS. IT STRENGTHENS COOPERATION REQUIREMENTS SO OPEN IT HAS THE INFORMATION IT NEEDS TO CONDUCT

335
01:10:27.489 --> 01:10:39.368
INDEPENDENT INVESTIGATION AND IT CREATES GREATER TRANSPARENCY AROUND BODY WORN CAMERA EVIDENCE AND WHETHER THE CITY IS COMPLYING WITH ITS OWN OBLIGATIONS. WHEN RESIDENTS FILE A COMPLAINT

336
01:10:39.368 --> 01:10:51.447
THEY DESERVE TO KNOW IT WON'T DISAPPEAR INTO A BLACK BOX WHEN OFFICERS ARE INVESTIGATED, THEY DESERVE A TIMELY AND FAIR PROCESS AND WHEN THE PUBLIC ASKS WHETHER OUR CURRENT

337
01:10:51.447 --> 01:11:02.491
ABILITY SYSTEM IS FUNCTIONING, WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION WITH DATA, NOT ASSUMPTIONS. ULTIMATELY ACCOUNTABILITY IS ABOUT TRUST.

338
01:11:02.491 --> 01:11:13.502
IT'S WHY IT SHOWS UP IN OPEN SHORTER NAME TRUST BETWEEN RESIDENTS AND LAW ENFORCEMENT, TRUST BETWEEN COMMUNITIES AND GOVERNMENT AND TRUST THAT WHEN

339
01:11:13.502 --> 01:11:24.313
WE ESTABLISH AN INDEPENDENT OFFICE LIKE OPEN WE GIVE IT THE TOOLS, EXPECTATIONS AND TRANSPARENCY NECESSARY TO FULFILL THE MISSION WE ASK IT TO CARRY OUT.

340
01:11:24.313 --> 01:11:37.359
I LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING WITH MY COLLEAGUES TO CONTINUE STRENGTHENING POLICE ACCOUNTABILITY ABILITY IN BOSTON. THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT. THANK YOU COUNCILOR CULPEPER. WOULD ANYONE LIKE TO ADD THEIR

341
01:11:37.359 --> 01:11:48.971

343
01:12:01.383 --> 01:12:12.695
FOLLOWING ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 16 OF THE CITY OF BOSTON CODE ORDINANCES PROHIBITING THE SALE AND USE OF SYNTHETIC METRIC G NINE AND

344
01:12:12.695 --> 01:12:29.812
SEVEN HYDRO METRIC CHANGING 70H AND OTHER DANGEROUS CHEMICAL COMPOUNDS. THANK YOU. >> THE CHAIR RECOGNIZES COUNCILOR FITZGERALD COUNCIL. YOU HAVE THE FLOOR. THANK YOU. >> MADAM PRESIDENT. I WOULD LIKE TO ADD UH, ED

345
01:12:29.812 --> 01:12:42.658

346
01:12:42.658 --> 01:12:54.770
OF BOSTON CODE PROHIBITING THE SALE AND USE OF SYNTHETIC METROLOGY NEED I BELIEVE. CLARK I'M NOT SURE THAT, UH, NO, IT'S MY TRAGEDY AND 70H UH WHICH 708 KNOWN AS UH HYDROXY

347
01:12:54.770 --> 01:13:05.180
ARGININE AND OTHER CHEMICAL COMPOUNDS IN LAYMAN'S TERMS, THIS WOULD BE TO ULTIMATELY BAN THE SALE AND USE OF SYNTHETIC KRATOM IN THE CITY OF BOSTON. KRATOM IS COMMONLY MARKETED AND

348
01:13:05.180 --> 01:13:16.692
SOLD IN FORMS INCLUDING DRIED LEAF POWDERS, CAPSULES, TEAS, GUMMIES, ENERGY DRINKS, CONCENTRATED EXTRACTS, INHALANTS ETC. THROUGH RETAIL OUTLETS SUCH AS SMOKE SHOPS, CONVENIENCE STORES, GAS

349
01:13:16.692 --> 01:13:28.704
STATIONS, SPECIALTY HERBAL SHOPS AND ONLINE VENDORS ACROSS THE CITY OF BOSTON. WE HAVE HEARD CONCERNS FROM RESIDENTS ABOUT THE WIDESPREAD AND UNREGULATED USE OF KRATOM. THE SALE AND USE OF SYNTHETIC

350
01:13:28.704 --> 01:13:39.715
DRUGS POSES AN IMMEDIATE THREAT TO THE PUBLIC HEALTH AND SAFETY OF THE RESIDENTS OF BOSTON, AND MANY RESIDENTS STATED THEIR FRUSTRATION WITH THE CURRENT LACK OF REGULATIONS AND WISH THAT OUR CITY WOULD TAKE THE

351
01:13:39.715 --> 01:13:50.426
LEAD ON REGULATING THESE SUBSTANCES. I BELIEVE THAT BOSTON BECOME A NATIONAL LEADER IN CREATING REGULATIONS. I LOOK SPECIFICALLY TO THE WORK THAT OUR COUNCIL DID TO END THE SALE AND MANUFACTURING

352
01:13:50.426 --> 01:14:02.905
OF SYNTHETIC SYNTHETIC CANNABINOIDS THROUGH CBK 16 FIVE 9 IN 2015 AND GUIDING HOW THESE REGULATIONS WOULD TAKE PLACE TODAY. SYNTHETIC KRATOM IS AN OFTEN

353
01:14:02.905 --> 01:14:14.316
OVERLOOKED AND UNREGULATED SUBSTANCE AND WIDELY ACCESSIBLE TO OUR COMMUNITIES THAT CAN BE HARMFUL AND OFTEN FATAL. MY HOPE IS TO BRING AWARENESS, EDUCATION AND REGULATION TO THE

354
01:14:14.316 --> 01:14:25.828
RESIDENTS THROUGHOUT THE CITY. I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO THE HEARING ON THIS AND GETTING THIS PASSED. THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT. THANK YOU, COUNCILOR FITZGERALD. THE CHAIR RECOGNIZES COUNCILOR FLYNN. COUNCILOR, YOU HAVE THE FLOOR. THANK YOU, MADAM CHAIR. I WANT TO SAY THANK YOU TO

356
01:14:39.775 --> 01:14:50.285
PROBATION OFFICER. UM, NOT REALLY AS A CITY COUNCILOR, BUT I KNOW THAT THIS ISSUE THAT COUNCILOR FITZGERALD . HAS HIGHLIGHTED, UM, IS A MAJOR

357
01:14:50.285 --> 01:15:01.463
CONCERN THROUGHOUT THE CITY REALLY THROUGHOUT THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY AS WELL. BUT WHAT WE NEED IS REGULATION ,OVERSIGHT. LEADERSHIP ROLE FROM THE CITY

358
01:15:01.463 --> 01:15:12.975
OF BOSTON AS WELL AND ENSURING THAT THOSE PEOPLE THAT ARE DEALING WITH SUBSTANCE USE. ISSUES GET THE TREATMENT AND

359
01:15:12.975 --> 01:15:24.219
SUPPORT THEY REALLY NEED AND YES, WE. NEED TO REGULATE IT. WE NEED TO. BE MORE AGGRESSIVE ON. ABOLISHING THIS TYPE OF UM THIS TYPE OF DRUG.

360
01:15:24.219 --> 01:15:35.631
BUT WE ALSO NEED TO. WORK TOGETHER TO ENSURE THAT THOSE UM DEALING WITH SUBSTANCE USE RELATED CHALLENGES, UH, GET THE RECOVERY SERVICES THAT THEY NEED. THAT'S A THAT'S AN ISSUE I'M

361
01:15:35.631 --> 01:15:47.342
GOING TO CONTINUE TO FOCUS ON AS A CITY COUNCILOR. IT'S SOMETHING I'VE BEEN ACTIVE MY WHOLE LIFE, ESPECIALLY AS A PROBATION OFFICER AS WELL. I WANT TO SAY THANK YOU, COUNCILOR FITZGERALD. THANK YOU, MADAM CHAIR. THANK YOU.

01:17:15.197 --> 01:17:26.308
COUNCILOR WEBER HAS BEEN ADDED AS A CO-SPONSOR. THANK YOU. TRANSPORTATION SAFETY. HAS BEEN. THE TALK OF MY DISTRICT FOR THE PAST THREE YEARS FROM THE

370
01:17:26.308 --> 01:17:37.719
REDESIGN OF WHOLE CORRIDORS TO SPEED. HUMPS FROM SIDEWALK REPAIRS TO BIKE INFRASTRUCTURE, IT SEEMS LIKE EVERYONE IN DISTRICT FIVE AND ACROSS THE CITY IS LOOKING FOR WAYS. >> TO MAKE IT EASIER. TO GET AROUND THEIR

371
01:17:37.719 --> 01:17:49.331
NEIGHBORHOODS. I'VE SEEN THIS APPETITE FOR SAFETY ACROSS THE CITY AND I KNOW COUNCILOR BREADON HAS SEEN IT TOO WHICH IS WHY FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF MONTHS THE TWO OF US AND OUR TEAMS HAVE BEEN

372
01:17:49.331 --> 01:18:00.208
WORKING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT STEPS WE CAN TAKE TO ENSURE THAT BOSTONIANS CONTINUE TO RECEIVE THE INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTS THAT ARE PROVING TO IMPROVE SAFETY OUTCOMES.

373
01:18:00.208 --> 01:18:12.320
THIS ANNUAL REPORTING ORDINANCE WILL REQUIRE THE ADMINISTRATION TO PROVIDE CLEAR REPORTS ON STREET PROJECTS, THOSE PROJECTS CONCERNING BOSTON STREETS AND HOW PEOPLE MOVE ABOUT THEM.

374
01:18:12.320 --> 01:18:23.899
I LOOK FORWARD TO THE PROCESS TO COME AND WANT TO THANK COUNCILOR BREADON AND HER TEAM FOR THEIR COOPERATION THIS YEAR COUNCILOR WEBER SPONSORED A HEARING ORDER ON THE CITY'S 30

375
01:18:23.899 --> 01:18:35.377
DAY REVIEW OF STREET PROJECTS, WHICH WE HEARD IN THE SPRING IN COMBINATION WITH OTHER RELATED DOCKETS WHERE WE DEMAND THAT TRANSPARENCY WITH STREET PROJECTS GOING FORWARD. THAT A LOT OF THE WORK THAT

376
01:18:35.377 --> 01:18:45.287
WE'VE BEEN DOING HAS BEEN OVER. THEY OVERLAP BUT THEY HAVE THE SAME PATTERN WHICH IS THAT WE ALL WANT TO. MAKE OUR. STREETS SAFER AND WE ALL WANT UPDATES ON OUR RESIDENTS ARE

377
01:18:45.287 --> 01:18:58.567
ASKING US FOR THOSE UPDATES. SO THIS IS IN RESPONSE TO OUR RESIDENTS AND THIS IS TO. MAKE SURE THAT WE. CONTINUE TO MAKE OUR STREETS SAFER FOR EVERYONE. THANK YOU, MR CHAIR.

378
01:18:58.567 --> 01:19:08.777
CHAIR RECOGNIZES COUNCILOR BREADON COUNCILOR BREADON, YOU HAVE THE FLOOR. THANK YOU, MR CHAIR. AND THANK YOU TO CONSIDER PEPPER PEPPER PEPEN FOR ADDING ME AS A SECOND.

379
01:19:08.777 --> 01:19:20.021
EARLIER THIS YEAR I SPONSORED A HEARING TO DISCUSS THE STATUS OF STALLED AND FROZEN TRANSPORTATION PROJECTS WITH A PARTICULAR FOCUS ON PROJECTS THAT HAD RECEIVED EXTERNAL FUNDING.

380
01:19:20.021 --> 01:19:31.900
I REMAIN INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATED BY BOTH THE LACK OF TRANSPARENCY AND ACCOUNTABILITY WHEN IT COMES TO THE STATUS OF THESE PROJECTS. THIS ORDINANCE IS INTENDED TO PROVIDE THAT TRANSPARENCY AND

381
01:19:31.900 --> 01:19:42.911
ACCOUNTABILITY. WHAT WE ARE ASKING IS THAT THE CITY PUBLISH ONCE A YEAR A COMPREHENSIVE ACCOUNTING OF EVERY SIGNIFICANT STREET PROJECT THAT MOVES FORWARD,

382
01:19:42.911 --> 01:19:53.922
WHAT'S BEEN DELAYED AND WHAT PROJECTS HAVE BEEN CANCELED AND WHY, HOW MUCH HAS BEEN SPENT ON EACH PROJECT AND WHERE THE FUNDING IS COMING FROM. THIS SHOULD NOT BE CONTROVERSIAL.

383
01:19:53.922 --> 01:20:04.399
BOTH THIS COUNCIL AND RESIDENTS WE SERVE HAVE A RIGHT TO USABLE, DIGESTIBLE REPORTING TO GIVE THEM BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF HOW THE CITY IS USING ITS RESOURCES AND WHERE PROJECTS

384
01:20:04.399 --> 01:20:15.510
MAY FACE DELAYS. RESIDENTS AT TEN PUBLIC MEETINGS THEY PROVIDE FEEDBACK, THEY SEE ANNOUNCEMENTS AND PRESS RELEASES AND THEN ALL TOO OFTEN THEY WAIT.

385
01:20:15.510 --> 01:20:27.789
THEY WAIT IN THE DARK WITH NO TIMELINES, NO UPDATES AND NO IDEA WHEN THESE DESPERATELY NEEDED TRANSPORTATION AND STREET SAFETY PROJECTS ARE GOING TO MOVE FORWARD. AND ALLSTON, BRIGHTON, THE

386
01:20:27.789 --> 01:20:38.166
WESTERN AVE TRANSIT WAY AND ROUTE 57 ARE BOTH SUCH EXAMPLES. THE LAST PUBLIC MEETING ON WESTERN AVE TRANSITWAY WAS IN 2022 AND THERE'S NOT BEEN A

387
01:20:38.166 --> 01:20:50.045
SUBSTANTIAL PROJECT UPDATE SINCE THE ROUTE 57 PROJECT HAS BEEN IN DESIGN FOR OVER THREE YEARS. RESIDENTS HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET STRAIGHT ANSWERS ABOUT SOMETHING AS SIMPLE AS THE

388
01:20:50.045 --> 01:21:01.590
STATUS AND VIABILITY OF THE PROJECT. THESE PROBLEMS AREN'T EXCLUSIVE TO LARGER TRANSPORTATION PROJECTS EITHER. RESIDENTS AND ALLSTON BRIGHTON HAVE BEEN ASKING ME FOR YEARS

389
01:21:01.590 --> 01:21:12.701
WHEN WE'RE GOING TO SEE SPEED BUMPS AS PART OF THE MAYOR'S SAFETY SURGE INITIATIVE, I DON'T HAVE AN ANSWER FOR THEM. OVER THE PAST FOUR MONTHS I SPENT SENT FIVE SEPARATE EMAILS TO THE STREETS CABINET ASKING

390
01:21:12.701 --> 01:21:24.946
FOR THE INSTALLATION OF BIKE LANE BUFFERS IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. I HAVE YET TO RECEIVE A RESPONSE. THIS STATUS QUO WAS UNACCEPTABLE. THIS ORDINANCE DOESN'T MANDATE THAT ANY NEW PROJECTS BE BUILT.

391
01:21:24.946 --> 01:21:36.057
IT DOESN'T CALL FOR ANY ONE SIZED APPROACH TO STREET SAFETY. IT SIMPLY CREATES MORE CONSISTENT, TRANSPARENT AND ACCOUNTABLE WAY TO TRACK OUR STREETS PROJECTS ENSURES THAT

392
01:21:36.057 --> 01:21:46.534
RESIDENTS HAVE CLEAR INFORMATION ABOUT THE INVESTMENTS BEING MADE IN THEIR COMMUNITIES, AND I URGE MY COLLEAGUES TO SUPPORT THIS AND LOOK FORWARD TO THE CONVERSATIONS TO COME. THANK YOU, MR CHAIR. THANK YOU, MADAM PRESIDENT.

393
01:21:46.534 --> 01:21:59.180
UH, COUNCILOR WEBER. THANK YOU. >> YOU HAVE. THE FLOOR. THANK YOU. UM, I JUST WANT TO THANK, UH, COUNCILOR PEPEN AND MADAM PRESIDENT FOR ADDING ME TO THIS. UH, YOU KNOW, I THINK, UM, YOU

394
01:21:59.180 --> 01:22:09.224
KNOW, OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS THERE'S BEEN A NUMBER OF PROJECTS IN DISTRICT SIX THAT DESPITE, UH, HAVING THE CITY UH ALREADY SPENT CONSIDERABLE TIME AND ENERGY

395
01:22:09.224 --> 01:22:21.303
WORKING ON HAVE JUST, YOU KNOW, SORT OF BEEN HALTED WITH NO EXPLANATION. THESE INCLUDE, UH, THE EGGLESTON SQUARE REDESIGN, THE MCBRIDE STREET PROJECT CENTER SOUTH UH STREET AND GP UH AND

396

THEN OTHER PROJECTS WHERE WE HAD WE HAD HOPED TO GET SEE SOME UM PROGRESS LIKE HYDE PARK AVENUE HAVE ALSO GONE NOWHERE SO UH I JUST WANT TO THANK THE FILERS.

397

SO HOPE YOU GET BETTER SOON. UM. >> THIS DISCUSSION ABOUT CROSSING GUARD SHORTAGES IS ONE THAT WE'VE HAD HAD IN THE PAST AND ONE THAT I'M HOPING TO PICK UP AGAIN. VACANCIES PERSIST WHEN WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH CROSSING GUARDS.

407
01:24:40.842 --> 01:24:51.786
THAT MEANS OUR STUDENTS OUR CHILDREN FAMILIES ARE LESS SAFE HAVING PLENTY OF CROSSING GUARDS ALONG WITH MAKING BUSSES SAFER AND HAVING SAFE SCHOOL ZONES IS ALL PART OF MAKING GOT

408
01:24:51.786 --> 01:25:04.299

412
01:25:37.298 --> 01:25:48.009
BACK IN FEBRUARY I FILED A HEARING NOTICE SPECIFICALLY LOOKING AT STRATEGIES TO IMPROVE THE RECRUITMENT OF VOLUNTEER CROSSING GUARDS BECAUSE WE CONTINUE TO HEAR

413
01:25:48.009 --> 01:25:59.888
CONCERNS ABOUT VACANCIES AND THE DIFFICULTY OF ENSURING THAT EVERY SCHOOL CROSSING THE NEEDS COVERAGE HAS THE CROSSING GUARDS PROVIDE AN IMPORTANT PUBLIC SAFETY SERVICE FOR OUR

414
01:25:59.888 --> 01:26:10.932
STUDENTS AND OUR FAMILIES WHEN POSITIONS GO UNFILLED. IT CAN ALSO REQUIRE POLICE OFFICERS TO COME ACROSS THINGS WHEN THEY COULD OTHERWISE BE RESPONDING TO CALLS AND

415
01:26:10.932 --> 01:26:22.977
PERFORMING OTHER PUBLIC SAFETY RESPONSIBILITY. THIS HEARING GIVES US ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY TO LOOK AT THESE ISSUES, INCLUDING DISCUSSING WHICH CITY DEPARTMENT IS BEST

416
01:26:22.977 --> 01:26:32.987
POSITIONED TO OVERSEE AND COORDINATE CROSSING GUARD PLACEMENT. HOW DO WE IMPROVE RECRUITMENT AND RETENTION? WELL, THE COMPENSATION AND SCHEDULING ARE CONTRIBUTING TO

417
01:26:32.987 --> 01:26:43.865
VACANCIES, HOW CROSSING LOCATIONS ARE PRIORITIZED AND WHETHER PARTNERSHIPS WITH SCHOOLS, NEIGHBORHOOD ORGANIZATIONS, SENIORS, RETIREES AND OTHER COMMUNITY

418
01:26:43.865 --> 01:26:56.411
MEMBERS COULD HELP BUILD A MORE RELIABLE PIPELINE OF CROSSING GUARDS. I LOOK FORWARD TO CONTINUING THIS CONVERSATION WITH MY COLLEAGUES, THE ADMINISTRATION AND OUR SCHOOL COMMUNITIES TO

419
01:26:56.411 --> 01:27:08.890
IDENTIFY PRACTICAL WAYS TO RECRUIT, RETAIN AND DEPLOY CROSSING GUARDS WHERE THEY ARE MOST NEEDED. THANK YOU, MADAM PRESIDENT. THANK YOU, COUNCILOR CULPEPPER. WOULD ANYONE LIKE TO ADD THEIR NAME? COUNCILOR.

01:27:59.474 --> 01:28:10.652
THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR. SKILLED TRADE JOBS. ENCOMPASS A BROAD. RANGE OF FIELDS INCLUDING MECHANICS, ELECTRICAL CONSTRUCTION, PLUMBING THOSE

425
01:28:10.652 --> 01:28:21.796
JOBS ARE CRITICAL TO ENSURE OUR INFRASTRUCTURE REMAINS SAFE AND ACCESSIBLE INCLUDING HOMES, BUILDINGS. ROADS AND PARKS. TRADES ALSO. INCLUDE HEALTH CARE,

426
01:28:21.796 --> 01:28:33.174
COSMETOLOGY, CULINARY, HOSPITALITY, AGRICULTURE, LAUREN PUBLIC SAFETY, MEDIA AND TRANSPORTATION. DUE TO THE RISING COSTS OF A FOUR YEAR COLLEGE DEGREE, THE

427
01:28:33.174 --> 01:28:44.652
GROWING UNCERTAINTY OF THE IMPACT OF AI ON MANY PROFESSIONS AND THE COMPETITIVE WAGES OFFERED BY SKILLED TRADES ,MANY YOUNG PEOPLE ARE EXPLORING ALTERNATIVE CAREER

428
01:28:44.652 --> 01:28:53.795
PATHS. HOWEVER MANY VOCATIONAL SCHOOLS FACE LONG WAITLISTS LIMITED SEATS UNDERSCORING THE NEED TO EXPAND ACCESS TO HIGH QUALITY

429
01:28:53.795 --> 01:29:07.375
CAREER AND TECHNICAL EDUCATION ACROSS PUBLIC SCHOOLS. A RECENT BOSTON GLOBE REPORT. FOUND THAT. MALE STUDENTS ATTENDING.

430
01:29:07.375 --> 01:29:18.052
UM CAREER AND TECHNICAL EDUCATION SCHOOLS IN CONNECTICUT WERE FOUND TO HAVE BETTER ATTENDANCE, HIGHER TEST SCORES, HIGHER GRADUATION RATES. AND EARNING. MORE THAN THEIR PEERS WHO

431
01:29:18.052 --> 01:29:29.163
MISSED THE ADMISSION CUTOFF. FEMALES WHO ATTENDED THESE SCHOOLS DID UH DID BETTER AS WELL. NEITHER BOSTON PUBLIC SCHOOL

433
01:29:41.075 --> 01:29:52.520
WAS TALKING ABOUT BOSTON'S ONLY EXCLUSIVE TRADE SCHOOL. HOWEVER, OTHER MAJOR U.S. CITIES OFFER MORE PROGRAMS IN THEIR SCHOOLS.

434
01:29:52.520 --> 01:30:04.632
CHICAGO CURRENTLY OFFERS 34 PATHWAYS AT MORE THAN 80 HIGH SCHOOLS TO MORE THAN 14,000 SCHOOLS. BOSTON IS PROUD TO BE ONE OF THE MOST DIVERSE. SCHOOL DISTRICTS IN THE NATION

435
01:30:04.632 --> 01:30:16.110
,A DISTINCTION REFLECTED IN ITS COMMITMENT TO EQUITABLE AND ACCESSIBLE PROGRAMS AND PATHWAYS INCLUDING BP'S RYE PROGRAM, WHICH PROVIDES

436
01:30:16.110 --> 01:30:27.755
TRANSITION SERVICE INCLUDING VOCATIONAL TRAINING AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT TO STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES. EXPANDING ACCESS TO TRADES FOR COMMUNITIES OF COLOR WILL

437
01:30:27.755 --> 01:30:39.066
STRENGTHEN OUR WORKFORCE, ENSURE ALL STUDENTS HAVE OPPORTUNITIES TO ENTER HIGH DEMAND. CAREERS IN TRADES. THE BUILDING TRADES ORGANIZED LABOR ALSO HAS A CRITICAL.

438
01:30:39.066 --> 01:30:49.243
ROLE TO PLAY. INCREASING PARTICIPATION IN SKILLED TRADES CAN HELP REDUCE LONG STANDING BARRIERS TO ECONOMIC MOBILITY AND ADDRESS WORKFORCE SHORTAGES.

439

445
01:31:59.113 --> 01:32:10.191
FROM DPS WITHOUT THE WORK SKILLS AND LIFE SKILLS NECESSARY TO BE SUCCESSFUL AND THAT ATTRIBUTES TO A LOT OF OTHER SOCIAL ILLS THAT WE ARE TRYING TO COMBAT HERE ON

446
01:32:10.191 --> 01:32:21.836
THE COUNCIL. SO ANY OPPORTUNITY TO GIVE THEM MORE TRAINING AND OPEN UP THEIR EYES OR MAYBE JOBS THAT THEY MAY NOT HAVE SEEN AS SOMETHING THAT THEY COULD SEE THEMSELVES

01:34:44.211 --> 01:34:54.622
THE EXPANSION OF BOSTON'S BIKE NETWORK WITH THE GOALS ALLOWING UM FOR MORE SAFE AND CONNECTED BIKE LANES THROUGHOUT BOSTON UH ALONGSIDE THE LAUNCH OF SAFER

460
01:34:54.622 --> 01:35:06.934
STREETS, A CITYWIDE DESIGN PROCESS THAT PRIORITIZED CREATING SAFER STREETS THROUGH BETTER, BETTER TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT ALONGSIDE MORE PROTECTED BIKE ROUTES. UM. ALSO IN APRIL 2022, MAYOR WU

01:35:06.934 --> 01:35:19.280
RECOMMENDED CREATING A PLAN FOR BIKE INFRASTRUCTURE ACROSS THE CITY. UH LASTLY IN THE 30 DAY UH STREET PROJECTS REVIEW MEMO BY MIKE ROLL UH ISSUED ON APRIL

462
01:35:19.280 --> 01:35:30.658
2ND 2025, IT RECOMMENDED A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN FOR BIKE LANE INFRASTRUCTURE WHICH DISCUSS KEY CORRIDORS THAT WOULD BEST CONNECT BIKE INFRASTRUCTURE. UH, AND UH AFTER SUCH A PLAN

463
01:35:30.658 --> 01:35:41.769
THE CITY WOULD GO ON TO DESIGN UH, THE BEST BIKE NETWORK IN THE COUNTRY SERVING THE CITY OF BOSTON FOR GENERATIONS. UH I THINK UH, YOU KNOW, UM WE

467
01:36:17.571 --> 01:36:29.683
CO-SPONSOR. INVESTING IN ACTIVE TRANSPORTATION IS A GREAT WAY TO GIVE OPPORTUNITIES TO OUR RESIDENTS TO BUILD THAT PHYSICAL ACTIVITY INTO THEIR DAY. CYCLING SPECIFICALLY PROVIDES AN OPPORTUNITY FOR ACTIVE

468
01:36:29.683 --> 01:36:39.160
TRANSPORTATION OVER LONGER DISTANCES. HOWEVER, DESPITE THE BENEFITS, SAFETY CONTINUES TO BE THE PRIMARY SOURCE OF HESITATION FOR FOLKS CONSIDERING CYCLING.

469
01:36:39.160 --> 01:36:50.137
DATA SHOWS THAT PROTECTED SEPARATED BIKE LANES MAKE THE ROADS SAFER NOT ONLY FOR THE CYCLISTS BUT ALSO FOR PEDESTRIANS AND MOTORISTS. CREATING A ROBUST BIKE.

470
01:36:50.137 --> 01:37:02.383
NETWORK MEANS BETTER CONNECTED COMMUNITIES AND A SAFE, GREEN AND HEALTHY WAY TO GET AROUND OUR CITY. THAT IS WHY I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO PARTNERING WITH COUNCILOR WEBER AND COUNCILOR BREADON AND THE REST OF THE COUNCIL TO HAVE THIS

471
01:37:02.383 --> 01:37:10.357
VERY MUCH NEEDED CONVERSATION. THANK YOU, THANK YOU. I REALIZE I HAVE TO STEP DOWN AGAIN COUNCILOR CULPEPER IF YOU'D MIND.

474
01:37:43.958 --> 01:37:54.902

475
01:37:54.902 --> 01:38:05.913
SAFER FOR ALL ROAD USERS. THE 30 DAY REVIEW MEMO ISSUED IN THE MAYOR'S OFFICE LAST APRIL RECOMMENDED A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN FOR BIKE LANE INFRASTRUCTURE.

476
01:38:05.913 --> 01:38:17.258
SINCE THAT TIME, NEITHER THE COUNCIL NOR THE PUBLIC HAVE BEEN PROVIDED WITH ANY SUBSTANTIVE UPDATE ON THIS BIKE PLAN. HAVING A CITYWIDE PLAN WILL ALSO HELP US BETTER UNDERSTAND

477
01:38:17.258 --> 01:38:28.502
HOW PROJECTS CAN BE PRIORITIZED AND WHAT RESOURCES ARE NEEDED TO PLAN, DESIGN AND COMPLETE THE NETWORK. THIS HEARING WILL ALLOW US TO DISCUSS THE NEXT STEPS OF THAT PLAN AND HEAR FROM THE STREETS .

478
01:38:28.502 --> 01:38:40.681
CABINET BOSTON TRANSPORTATION DEPARTMENT, TRANSPORTATION EXPERTS, ADVOCATES AND OTHER COMMUNITIES ABOUT THEIR WORK. I LOOK FORWARD TO DISCUSSING HOW WE CAN BUILD A SAFE AND CONNECTED BIKE NETWORK AND

485
01:39:59.093 --> 01:40:10.537
COUNCILOR CULPEPER THE FOLLOWING RESOLUTION URGING IMPROVED RESPONSE TO NOISE COMPLAINTS AND ENFORCEMENT OF BOSTON'S NOISE CONTROL LAWS.

486
01:40:10.537 --> 01:40:21.415
COUNCILOR YOU HAVE THE. FLOOR FOR DOCKET NUMBER 1419. I REQUEST SUSPENSION OF THE RULES TO VOTE ON PASSAGE OF THIS DOCKET. I'D ALSO LIKE TO ADD COUNCILOR BREADON AS AN

487
01:40:21.415 --> 01:40:34.194
ORIGINAL CO-SPONSOR TO BOTH DOCKETS. THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU, MADAM PRESIDENT. TODAY I'M FOLLOWING BOTH A RESOLUTION AND A HEARING ORDER REGARDING THE CITY'S RESPONSE

488
01:40:34.194 --> 01:40:44.471
TO NOISE COMPLAINTS AND THE ENFORCEMENT OF OUR EXISTING NOISE CONTROL LAWS. IF YOU SPEND ANY AMOUNT OF TIME TALKING TO RESIDENTS IN DISTRICT SEVEN, YOU YOU'LL HEAR

489
01:40:44.471 --> 01:40:56.150
THE SAME CONCERNS OVER AND OVER LOUD PARTIES, ILLEGAL DIRT BIKES, ATVS, CARS BLASTING MUSIC AT ALL HOURS OF THE NIGHT, REPEAT NUISANCE

490
01:40:56.150 --> 01:41:07.161
PROPERTIES AND PERHAPS MOST FRUSTRATING OF ALL RESIDENTS WHO FEEL LIKE THEY'VE DONE EXACTLY WHAT THEY'VE BEEN ASKED TO DO CALLING 311 CALLING 911

491
01:41:07.161 --> 01:41:19.573
CONTACTING THE PARTY LINE ONLY TO FEEL THAT NOTHING CHANGES. THIS IS NOT JUST A DISTRICT SEVEN ISSUE. I SPOKE WITH COLLEAGUES FROM ACROSS BOSTON AND THEY'RE HEARING MANY OF THE SAME

492
01:41:19.573 --> 01:41:30.951
COMPLAINTS. THIS IS A CITYWIDE QUALITY OF LIFE ISSUE, BUT I ALSO WANT TO BE EQUALLY CLEAR ABOUT SOMETHING ELSE. I'M NOT FILING THIS BECAUSE I BELIEVE WE NEED ANOTHER LAW ON THE BOOKS.

493
01:41:30.951 --> 01:41:43.297
BOSTON ALREADY ALREADY HAS STRONG NOISE CONTROL ORDINANCES. UH, CITY CODE GIVES LAW ENFORCEMENT THE AUTHORITY TO RESPOND TO EXCESSIVE NOISE NUISANCE GATHERINGS AND REPEAT

494
01:41:43.297 --> 01:41:53.640
VIOLATION. THE QUESTION BEFORE US IS WHETHER THOSE LAWS ARE BEING ENFORCED CONSISTENTLY, TRANSPARENTLY AND EFFECTIVELY. RESIDENTS DESERVE TO KNOW THAT

495
01:41:53.640 --> 01:42:05.052
WHEN THEY TAKE TIME TO REPORT A PROBLEM SOMEONE RESPONDS. THEY DESERVE TO KNOW WHETHER THEIR COMPLAINT WAS DOCUMENTED, WHETHER ENFORCEMENT OCCURRED AND WHETHER REPEAT OFFENDERS

496
01:42:05.052 --> 01:42:15.829
ARE ACTUALLY BEING TRACKED. THEY DESERVE CONFIDENCE THAT THE SYSTEMS WE'VE CREATED ARE WORKING THE WAY THEY WERE INTENDED. THAT'S WHAT THIS HEARING AND

497
01:42:15.829 --> 01:42:26.106
RESOLUTION IS ALL ABOUT. AND UH, I JUST LIKE TO READ THIS TEXT THAT I GOT SATURDAY

498
01:42:26.106 --> 01:42:43.624
NIGHT INTO THE RECORD. I. >> I CAN'T SEEM TO FIND THIS

499
01:42:43.624 --> 01:43:04.578
TEXT. WELL, MADAM PRESIDENT, I GUESS I CAN'T FIND THAT TEXT. THANK YOU. TOOK THAT AS A SIGN.

THANK YOU. SO YOU'RE SPEAKING TO DOCKETS? UM. 1419 14201 DOCTOR DOCKET 1419

501
01:43:16.490 --> 01:43:31.271

502
01:43:31.271 --> 01:43:43.183
OF THESE. AND I WANT TO JUST REITERATE WHAT I KNOW THE CHAIR UM, THE SPONSOR HAD SAID THAT WE DON'T NEED NEW RULES. WE JUST NEED TO ENFORCE THE RULES THAT ARE ALREADY ON THE

503
01:43:43.183 --> 01:43:52.526
BOOKS. THIS CAME UP IN CONVERSATIONS SEVERAL YEARS BACK WHEN WE WERE TRYING TO ADD A NEW ORDINANCE TO STOP PEOPLE FROM PROTESTING

504
01:43:52.526 --> 01:44:03.737
OR USING BULLHORNS AT CERTAIN EVENTS. AND WHAT I CONTINUE TO SEE IS WE PICK AND CHOOSE WHEN WE'RE GOING TO ENFORCE THE RULES WE ALREADY HAVE ON THE BOOKS.

505
01:44:03.737 --> 01:44:14.915
AND I ALSO KNOW THAT CERTAIN STREETS, CERTAIN NEIGHBORHOODS, CERTAIN PARKS ARE LOUDER THAN OTHERS AND WE NEED TO GIVE SUPPORT TO IF IT'S

506
01:44:14.915 --> 01:44:26.627
CODE ENFORCEMENT OR IF IT IS THE STREET OUTREACH TEAM OR THE BOSTON POLICE WHOEVER IS IN THE POSITIONS TO MAKE SURE THAT RESIDENTS CAN HAVE PEACEFUL

507
01:44:26.627 --> 01:44:37.104
NIGHTS SLEEP. I KNOW IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD I'M HEARING LOTS MORE FIRECRACKERS AND MOTORBIKES GO BY THESE LAST FEW WEEKS AND WHEN THE DOG STARTS BARKING AND YOU DON'T GET A GOOD NIGHT'S SLEEP, I

508
01:44:37.104 --> 01:44:49.983
KNOW MY NEIGHBORS ARE HAVING THE SAME CONCERNS SO LOOKING FORWARD TO THE HEARING WHICH WILL SPEAK DIRECTLY ON IT BUT ALSO IT'S GOING TO SUPPORT THE SUPPORT THE RESOLUTION THAT HE PUT FORTH. THANK YOU.

509
01:44:49.983 --> 01:45:01.628

REGARDING CITY BOSTON'S RESPONSE TO NOISE COMPLAINTS. UM, I WANT TO I HAVE TO ASK. WHO'S THE APPROPRIATE PERSON. >> THAT HAS TO TAKE THE CHAIR FOR A MOMENT? I HAVE SINCE I'M A CO-SPONSOR.

511
01:45:13.940 --> 01:45:27.387
UM, COUNCILOR WORRELL, WOULD YOU MIND TAKING THE DIAS FROM YOU? I CAN JUST TOO. OKAY. UH, OKAY. I'M TRYING TO BE SEEN AS BEING FAIR. SO WHEN WE I'M GOING TO STAY WHERE I AM. THANK YOU.

512
01:45:27.387 --> 01:45:40.033
UM. >> THANK YOU. >> I'D LIKE TO THANK COUNCILOR CULPEPER FOR BRINGING THIS FORWARD AND ADDING ME AS AN ORIGINAL CO-SPONSOR. AND ALSO IN BRIGHTON WE RECEIVE PERSISTENT COMPLAINTS ABOUT SEVERAL FRATERNITY AND SORORITY

513
01:45:40.033 --> 01:45:49.910
HOUSES NEAR THE CAMPUSES OF COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES IN OUR DISTRICT. THIS IS A TOPIC MY OFFICE HAS RESEARCHED, AND WE FIND THAT THERE'S A PATCHWORK OF LAWS TO ADDRESS EXCESSIVE NOISE AND

514
01:45:49.910 --> 01:46:00.287
NUISANCE GATHERINGS, EXCESSIVE NOISE LAWS, PUBLIC NUISANCE JUST LAWS DISTURBING THE PEACE LAWS RESPONDING OFFICERS MAY CITE OFTEN CITE UH OFFENDERS

515
01:46:00.287 --> 01:46:11.732
FOR BREAKING ANY ANY ONE OF THESE LAWS AND I I'D LIKE TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THE PROCESS AND HOW WE CAN STANDARDIZE IT TO IMPROVE ENFORCEMENT. AND WE ALSO NEED TO UNDERSTAND

516
01:46:11.732 --> 01:46:23.944
HOW REPEAT COMPLAINTS ARE HANDLED, PARTICULARLY WHEN RESIDENTS CONTINUE REPORTING PROBLEMS AT THE SAME PROPERTY OR LOCATION NOT ONLY IN THE SAME YEAR BUT OVER MULTIPLE YEARS.

517
01:46:23.944 --> 01:46:34.588
THIS REQUIRES COORDINATION BETWEEN THE BOSTON POLICE DEPARTMENT AND OTHER CITY DEPARTMENTS FOR RESPONSIBLE RECEIVING, RESPONDING TO AND FOLLOWING UP ON THESE COMPLAINTS.

518
01:46:34.588 --> 01:46:46.066
I LOOK FORWARD TO DISCUSSING WHERE AND WHERE THERE MAY BE GAPS IN OUR CURRENT RESPONSE AND HOW WE CAN CREATE A MORE RELIABLE AND EFFECTIVE PROCESS FOR RESIDENTS ACROSS THE CITY OF BOSTON.

519
01:46:46.066 --> 01:46:55.208
THIS ESSENTIALLY IS A QUALITY OF LIFE ISSUE FOR MANY OF OUR RESIDENTS, AND I HOPE THAT WE CAN IMPROVE THE SITUATION. THANK YOU. SO WE HAVE TWO DOCKETS.

528
01:48:33.373 --> 01:48:45.619
DOC NUMBER 1421 COUNCILOR CULPEPER UH, FOR THE FOLLOWING ORDER FOR A HEARING REGARDING THE FUTURE OF THE JOHN D O'BRIEN SCHOOL OF MATHEMATICS AND SCIENCE. CHAIR RECOGNIZES CONSTANT

529
01:48:45.619 --> 01:48:57.297
CULPEPER COUNCILOR YOU HAVE THE FLOOR. THANK YOU, MADAM PRESIDENT. I WOULD LIKE TO REQUEST TO DOCKETS 1 TO 1 421 AND ONE FOR TWO TO BE READ TOGETHER.

530
01:48:57.297 --> 01:49:08.542
WITH YOU. TO REALLY GIVE TO US 17. ABSOLUTELY. UM THE OTHER TWO ARE 17 F SO WE WILL READ THIS ONE AND THEN WE'LL DO THE 17 F'S TOGETHER IF YOU DON'T MIND.

531
01:49:08.542 --> 01:49:20.854
I DON'T MIND. THE JOHN D O'BRIEN IS ONE OF BOSTON'S THREE EXAMINATION SCHOOLS AND AN IMPORTANT INSTITUTION IN ROXBURY SERVING

532
01:49:20.854 --> 01:49:30.397
STUDENTS FROM NEIGHBORHOODS ACROSS OUR CITY. FOR SEVERAL YEARS THERE HAVE BEEN SIGNIFICANT DISCUSSION ABOUT THE FUTURE OF THE SCHOOL

533
01:49:30.397 --> 01:49:41.408
BUT TODAY'S STUDENTS, FAMILIES ,EDUCATORS, ALUMNI AND THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITY STILL DO NOT HAVE A CLEAR LONG TERM ANSWER ABOUT WHAT THAT FUTURE

534
01:49:41.408 --> 01:49:54.454
WILL LOOK LIKE IN 2023. THE CITY PROPOSED RELOCATING THE O'BRIAN FROM ROXBURY TO THE WEST FOR OUR THREE EDUCATION COMPLEX WHILE EXPANDING THE SCHOOL BY APPROXIMATELY 400

535
01:49:54.454 --> 01:50:05.365
SEATS. FOLLOWING SIGNIFICANT CONCERNS FROM THE SCHOOL FROM THE SCHOOL COMMUNITY, THAT PROPOSAL WAS HALTED INDEFINITELY IN FEBRUARY 2024.

536
01:50:05.365 --> 01:50:16.142
AT THAT TIME THE ADMINISTRATOR AND THE ADMINISTRATION INDICATED THAT IT HAD EVALUATED ALTERNATIVES AND WOULD SHARE THE FINDINGS OF THE O'BRIEN O'BRIEN PROGRAMING STUDY.

537
01:50:16.142 --> 01:50:27.721
BUT MORE THAN TWO YEARS LATER WE STILL NEED FLAHERTY ON THAT WORD AND HOW IT IS INFORMING THE CITY'S PLANS FOR THE O'BRIEN. THE GOAL OF THESE FIVE FILINGS

538
01:50:27.721 --> 01:50:38.865
IS NOT TO RESTART THE DEBATE OVER A PROPOSAL THAT HAS ALREADY BEEN HALTED. IT IS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE DO NOT MOVE THE PLANNING COMMUNITY INPUT AND RESOURCES THAT HAVE

539
01:50:38.865 --> 01:50:50.944
ALREADY GONE INTO THIS PROCESS AND MOST IMPORTANTLY TO ESTABLISH A TRANSPARENT PATH FORWARD. THE O'BRIEN HAS BEEN DESCRIBED AS A PRIORITY BY THE ADMINISTRATION AND I BELIEVE

540
01:50:50.944 --> 01:51:02.322
STUDENTS AND FAMILIES DESERVE TO KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS IN CONCRETE TERMS. WE NEED A CLEAR A CLEAR PLAN, A REAL REALISTIC TIMELINE AND

541
01:51:02.322 --> 01:51:14.868
MEANINGFUL COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT AS WE DETERMINE THE LONG TERM FUTURE OF THE JOHN FRAME. THANK YOU, MADAM PRESIDENT. THANK YOU, COUNCILOR CULPEPPER .

542
01:51:14.868 --> 01:51:29.516
UM. WOULD ANYONE ELSE LIKE TO ADD THEIR NAME? COUNCILOR FITZGERALD. COUNCILOR FLYNN LOUIJEUNE COUNCILOR. MURPHY. COUNCILOR. COUNCILOR WEBER CONSTANT WORRELL AND PLEASE ADD THE

543
01:51:29.516 --> 01:51:41.227
CHAIR. THANK YOU. DOCKET UH 1421 WILL BE REFERRED TO THE COMMITTEE ON EDUCATION. MR TRAYER, COULD YOU PLEASE READ THE TWO, UH, 17 F'S

544
01:51:41.227 --> 01:51:54.074
TOGETHER? SEVEN DOCKET 1422 AND 1423. >> SO. I CAN HAVE A1422 COUNCILOR CULPEPER FOR THE FOLLOWING ORDER REQUESTING CERTAIN INFORMATION UNDER SECTION 17 OF REGARDING THE

545
01:51:54.074 --> 01:52:04.551
JOHN D O'BRIEN SCHOOL OF MATHEMATICS AND SCIENCE CAPITAL PLANNING PROCESS AND NUMBER 1423 COUNCILOR CULPEPER FOR THE FOLLOWING ORDER

546
01:52:04.551 --> 01:52:17.230
REQUESTING CERTAIN INFORMATION UNDER SECTION 17 OF REGARDING THE MASSACHUSETTS SCHOOL BUILDING AUTHORITY ELIGIBILITY PERIOD FOR MADISON PARK TECHNICAL VOCATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL. THANK YOU. >> MR.

547
01:52:17.230 --> 01:52:26.639
CHAIR RECOGNIZES COUNCILOR CULPEPER COUNCILOR. YOU HAVE THE FLOOR. THANK YOU, MADAM PRESIDENT. THIS 17 F REQUEST FOLLOWS THE

548
01:52:26.639 --> 01:52:39.552
HEARING THAT WE HELD LAST WEEK REGARDING THE FUTURE A MADISON PARK TECHNICAL VOCATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL AND THE CITY'S PARTICIPATION IN THE MSBA PROCESS DURING THIS ELIGIBILITY

549
01:52:39.552 --> 01:52:50.130
PERIOD. DURING THE HEARING WE LEARNED THAT BOSTON PUBLIC SCHOOLS HAS ALREADY SUBMITTED SEVERAL REQUIRED DOCUMENTS TO THE MSBA AS PART OF MADISON PARKS

550
01:52:50.130 --> 01:53:01.775
ELIGIBILITY PERIOD. WHILE ADDITIONAL SUBMISSIONS REMAIN OUTSTANDING. HOWEVER, THOSE DOCUMENTS HAVE NOT BEEN MADE PUBLIC PUBLICLY AVAILABLE. GIVEN THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THIS

551
01:53:01.775 --> 01:53:13.520
PROJECT AND THE LEVEL OF PUBLIC INVESTMENT THAT WILL ULTIMATELY BE REQUIRED. I BELIEVE THE COUNCIL, THE MADISON PARK COMMUNITY AND THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS SHOULD BE ABLE TO SEE THE INFORMATION THE CITY

552
01:53:13.520 --> 01:53:24.197
IS SUBMITTING AS THIS PROCESS MOVES FORWARD. IN THIS 17 F WE'RE REQUESTING DOCUMENTS THAT HAVE BEEN SUBMITTED TO THE MSBA. OTHER MASSACHUSETTS COMMUNITIES

553
01:53:24.197 --> 01:53:35.942
PARTICIPATING IN THE MSBA PROCESS HAVE MADE THESE TYPES OF DOCUMENTS PUBLICLY ACCESSIBLE THROUGH DEDICATED PROJECT WEBSITES AND ONLINE DOCUMENT LIBRARIES.

554
01:53:35.942 --> 01:53:48.655
I BELIEVE BOSTON SHOULD PROVIDE THAT SAME LEVEL OF TRANSPARENCY ,PARTICULARLY FOR A PROJECT AS CONSEQUENTIAL AS REBUILDING AND MODERNIZING THE CITY'S ONLY TECHNICAL VOCATIONAL HIGH

555
01:53:48.655 --> 01:54:00.033
SCHOOL. WE ALL WANT TO SEE MADISON PARK MOVE FORWARD SUCCESSFULLY THROUGH THE MSBA PROCESS. THIS REQUEST IS ABOUT MAKING SURE THAT AS IT DOES, THERE'S

556
01:54:00.033 --> 01:54:10.643
TRANSPARENCY AT EVERY STAGE AND THAT STUDENTS, FAMILIES, EDUCATORS, THE COUNCIL AND THE BROADER COMMUNITY HAVE ACCESS TO THE INFORMATION NECESSARY TO

557
01:54:10.643 --> 01:54:22.422
UNDERSTAND THE DECISIONS BEING MADE ABOUT THE FUTURE OF THE MADISON PARK TECHNICAL VOCATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL. THANK YOU, MADAM PRESIDENT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, COUNCILOR CULPEPER.

558
01:54:22.422 --> 01:54:34.701

TRAFFIC CRASHES IN BOSTON BY 2030. AND IT IS AN AMBITIOUS GOAL. BUT HOW CAN WE NOT BE AMBITIOUS WITH LIVES ON THE LINE? THERE IS STILL WORK TO BE DONE AND MORE LIVE TO SAVE.

565
01:55:49.709 --> 01:56:00.486
WITH THREE AND A HALF YEARS LEFT UNTIL 2030. IN MY DISTRICT ALONE THERE'S BEEN MULTIPLE OCCASIONS WHERE I'VE GONE TO VIGILS AND HAVE STOOD WITH FAMILIES WHO HAVE

568
01:56:24.777 --> 01:56:35.054
WHAT WE DO REALIZE IS THAT THESE THINGS THESE ACCIDENTS, THEY IMPACT A LOT OF RESIDENTS AND OUR COMMITMENT TO VISION ZERO ISN'T JUST A COMMITMENT TO

569
01:56:35.054 --> 01:56:45.465
SAFER STREETS, IT'S TO COMMITMENT TO SAVING LIVES, WHICH IS WHY IT'S SO IMPORTANT FOR US TO CONTINUE TO ELEVATE THIS CONCERN SO IMPORTANT FOR US TO CONTINUE TO TALK ABOUT WHAT'S HAPPENING.

570
01:56:45.465 --> 01:56:57.810
UM, WE HAVE TO MAKE SURE THAT IT REMAINS A PART OF A FOCUS EVERY SINGLE DAY. SO I HOPE THAT WE CAN COME TOGETHER AS A COUNCIL TO RECOMMIT OURSELVES TO VISION ZERO BY 2030. ONE FATALITY IS TOO MANY.

571
01:56:57.810 --> 01:57:10.923

01:59:04.070 --> 01:59:16.716
SERIOUS TRAFFIC CRASHES BY 2030 WITH LESS THAN FOUR YEARS REMAINING, WE HAVE SIGNIFICANT WORK TO DO IN 2025. 11 PEOPLE WERE KILLED IN TRAFFIC CRASHES IN BOSTON, MOST

583
01:59:16.716 --> 01:59:28.194
OF WHOM WERE PEDESTRIANS, AND HUNDREDS OF OTHER CRASHES REQUIRED MEDICAL AND REQUIRED MEDICAL. OTHERS IN CRASHES REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION.

584
01:59:28.194 --> 01:59:40.139
I WOULD BE REMISS IF I DID NOT MENTION THE TRAGIC LOSS OF LUIS AGAG AND ALSO BRIGHTON RESIDENT, A CITY EMPLOYEE WHOSE WORK TOUCHED ALL OF US AND A BELOVED MEMBER OF OUR COMMUNITY

585
01:59:40.139 --> 01:59:51.717

SIZE TO BOSTON, HAS GONE OVER A YEAR WITHOUT A SINGLE FATALITY . IN 2019 THAT CITY SAW ZERO PEDESTRIAN DEATHS AS WELL. THAT WASN'T ACHIEVED BY MAGIC.

587
02:00:03.829 --> 02:00:15.575
IT WAS ACHIEVED BY COMMITMENT TO PROVEN SAFETY MEASURES AND BUILDING SAFER STREETS. WE SHOULD TAKE NOTE HERE IN BOSTON WE NEED TO CONTINUE MOVING FORWARD WITH INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTS THAT

588
02:00:15.575 --> 02:00:27.687
MAKE OUR STREETS SAFER AND HELP PREVENT THESE CRASHES FROM HAPPENING IN THE FIRST PLACE. THESE IMPROVEMENTS ARE ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT FOR PEDESTRIANS, CYCLISTS, TRANSIT RIDERS, CHILDREN, OLDER ADULTS

589
02:00:27.687 --> 02:00:38.798
AND PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES WHO CAN BE MOST VULNERABLE ON OUR STREETS. REACHING VISION ZERO WILL REQUIRE US TO ACCELERATE THIS WORK AND CONTINUING TO MAKE STREET SAFETY A PRIORITY AS WE

02:00:38.798 --> 02:00:50.509
APPROACH 2030. I LOOK FORWARD TO CONTINUING OUR WORK TOGETHER TO ACHIEVE VISION ZERO AND MAKING SURE THAT EVERYONE CAN TRAVEL SAFELY THROUGHOUT OUR CITY. THANK YOU.

CONCERN FOR MANY RESIDENTS FOR TOO LONG. THERE ARE MANY STEPS WE MUST TAKE TO MAKE OUR ROADS SAFER FOR PEDESTRIANS, FOR CYCLISTS. AND FOR ALL OUR ROAD USERS.

653
02:12:54.666 --> 02:13:06.678
THESE BILLS PROVIDE ONE OF THOSE SOLUTIONS AND IT DOES SO IN A WAY THAT WILL FREE UP OUR POLICE OFFICERS TO FOCUS RESOURCES ON OTHER PUBLIC EMERGENCIES WHILE MAKING TRAFFIC SAFETY ENFORCEMENT MORE

654
02:13:06.678 --> 02:13:18.557
EFFICIENT. WE'LL GIVE CITIES THE OPTION TO USE ROAD SAFETY CAMERAS TO ADDRESS SPEEDING, RED LIGHT VIOLATIONS AND OTHER DANGEROUS DRIVING BEHAVIORS.

655
02:13:18.557 --> 02:13:29.568
MULTIPLE OTHER CITIES HAVE A LONG HISTORY OF USING AUTOMATED ENFORCEMENT TOOLS SUCH AS CHICAGO, WASHINGTON DC AS WELL AS NEW YORK WHICH HAS REPORTED A SIGNIFICANT.

656
02:13:29.568 --> 02:13:41.813
DECREASE IN SPEEDING VIOLATIONS WHERE CAMERAS ARE LOCATED SINCE THEIR PROGRAM'S INCEPTION. SO I'M ASKING MY COUNCIL COLLEAGUES TO JOIN ME IN SUPPORTING THIS LEGISLATION AND URGING OUR

02:13:41.813 --> 02:13:53.592
COLLEAGUES AT THE STATE HOUSE TO PASS BILL UM AS 2344 AND HOUSE BILL 3754 AN ACT RELATIVE TO TRAFFIC REGULATION USING

661
02:14:29.795 --> 02:14:41.440
DECREASE IN PEOPLE SPEEDING THROUGH RED LIGHTS AND GETTING INTO, UH, DANGEROUS, UH, T-BONED ACCIDENTS. AND SO, UH, YOU KNOW, IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE SHOULD DEFINITELY HAVE THE ABILITY TO

662
02:14:41.440 --> 02:14:51.283
IMPLEMENT HERE IN BOSTON. IT ALSO MEANS FOR ME I THINK THE ONLY POSSIBLE OBJECTION TO THIS WOULD BE ON CIVIL LIBERTIES GROUNDS, BUT THE ACLU, UH, FOUGHT FOR UH,

663
02:14:51.283 --> 02:15:03.862
REVISIONS TO THESE BILLS AND IS UH I BELIEVE UH IT HAS BEEN SATISFIED THAT THERE WON'T BE CIVIL LIBERTIES ISSUES UH, WITH THESE STATE BILLS. SO AGAIN, A THANK YOU TO COUNCILOR L FOR PUTTING THIS FORWARD AND I HOPE WE CAN PASS

PREVIOUSLY. IT'S A TOPIC THAT A LOT OF RESIDENTS HAVE REACHED OUT ABOUT. A LOT OF PEOPLE SEE WORK IN OTHER PLACES. UM, I'M ALSO JUST GLAD TO KNOW THAT THE STATE HAS BEEN WORKING WITH THE MASSACHUSETTS VISION

666
02:15:26.284 --> 02:15:37.696
ZERO COALITION AND HAS THEIR SUPPORT BEHIND THESE TWO BILLS AND ALSO AS COUNCILMEMBER JUST MENTIONED, THERE HAS BEEN CONCERN WITH THE FROM THE ACLU BUT I THINK THAT THEY HAVE REACHED FINALLY A PLACE WHERE

667
02:15:37.696 --> 02:15:48.874
EVERYONE FEELS COMFORTABLE WITH THE LANGUAGE THAT'S IN PLACE WITH BOTH OF THE BILLS, BOTH AT THE SENATE AND AT THE HOUSE. SO I JUST I ENCOURAGE OUR COLLEAGUES AT THE STATE HOUSE TO REALLY LOOK AT THIS AND. AND MOVE IT FORWARD TO MAKE

671
02:16:22.908 --> 02:16:34.786
WITHOUT EVEN ANY KNOWLEDGE OF THE BILL SAYING WHY DON'T WE HAVE THE ABILITY TO DO THIS LIKE THEY DO IN OTHER STATES? SO UM, AS SOMEONE WHO IS FROM A PLACE WHERE THIS IS ROUTINE UM

672

,UNDERSTANDING THAT UM, IN THE WAKE OF UM OF POLICE UH, VIOLENCE AND OTHER THINGS GOING ON UM, HAVING LESS INTERACTIONS WITH POLICE UM AND RESIDENTS UM

673

729
02:27:49.227 --> 02:28:00.771

02:28:00.771 --> 02:28:13.584
ONE NURSE SAID TO ME ADD WHAT WE'RE ASKING FOR IS PARITY WITH THE LOWEST PAID UNION NURSES IN BOSTON AND THEY PROBABLY ARE IN THE MOST DIFFICULT HOSPITAL.

731
02:28:13.584 --> 02:28:24.228
BECAUSE THEY'RE. >> IN A TRAUMA HOSPITAL AND THEY SEE A LOT OF UM, CHALLENGING CIRCUMSTANCES. WHAT THEY'RE ASKING FOR IS FAIRNESS. THEY'RE ASKING FOR RESPECT AND

732
02:28:24.228 --> 02:28:35.106
DIGNITY. THEY'RE NOT ASKING FOR A HUGE INCREASE BUT THEY'RE ASKING TO PAY THEIR BILLS, SUPPORT THEIR FAMILIES, UM, AND.

LIKE COUNCIL FLYNN SAID ALL THEY'RE LOOKING FOR IS A LITTLE PARITY. UH, THEY ARE BY FAR THE LOWEST PAID UH, COMPARED TO THE OTHER HOSPITALS AT THE MOMENT. UH, AND SO THEY'RE JUST LOOKING TO BE RESPECTED ESPECIALLY FOR

739
02:29:45.910 --> 02:29:58.122

749
02:31:40.858 --> 02:31:52.670

CLOSELY AND WORKING CLOSELY WITH SEIU 1199 AND THE NURSES DIRECTLY TO FIND OUT EXACTLY HOW WE CAN SUPPORT AND BE THAT BRIDGE WITH PUBLIC HEALTH AND

772
02:36:08.292 --> 02:36:19.770
CATS THAT ARE GETTING LOTS OF MONEY WHILE OUR NURSES WHO ARE DOING THE FRONTLINE WORK ARE GETTING THE SPARE CHANGE. AND SO I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT FOR US TO RECOGNIZE WHAT THAT

UM, IN THE SOUTH END FOR ITS TRAUMA CENTER AND FOR THE INCREDIBLE WORK THEY DO SO OUR NURSES DO DESERVE UM, WAGE PARITY WITH OTHER NURSES IN THE CITY.

798
02:41:13.363 --> 02:41:24.441
I'D LIKE TO ADD COUNCIL MEMBER HERE AS A SECOND ORIGINAL CO-SPONSOR. NOW I'D ALSO LIKE TO REQUEST A SUSPENSION OF THE RULES TO VOTE ON THE PASSAGE.

799
02:41:24.441 --> 02:41:35.485
THIS DOCKET. WHEN WE TALK ABOUT COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AND COMMUNITY LED PLANNING IN ROXBURY, WE ALSO NEED TO RESPECT THE STRUCTURES

800
02:41:35.485 --> 02:41:46.863
THAT WERE ESTABLISHED TO GIVE RESIDENTS A MEANINGFUL AND CONTINUING VOICE IN THE DECISIONS AFFECTING THEIR NEIGHBORHOOD. THE ROXBURY NEIGHBORHOOD COUNCIL HAS AN IMPORTANT ROLE

801
02:41:46.863 --> 02:41:57.474
IN THAT PROCESS. ARTICLE 50 OF THE BOSTON ZONING CODE RECOGNIZES THE RNC AS ROXBURY RESCUE IS FORMAL PLANNING ENTITY AND THE ROXBURY

802
02:41:57.474 --> 02:42:09.086
STRATEGIC MASTER PLAN ESTABLISH A BROADER FRAMEWORK FOR COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION AND DEVELOPMENT IN LAND USE AND PLANNING DECISIONS, INCLUDING A

803
02:42:09.086 --> 02:42:20.530
ROLE FOR THE RNC AND THE NOMINATION PROCESS OF MEMBERS OF THE ROXBURY STRATEGIC MASTER PLAN OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE. THIS IS PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT NOW BECAUSE THE CURRENT MEMBERS

804
02:42:20.530 --> 02:42:30.807
OF THE OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE HAVE EXCEEDED THE THREE YEAR TERMS ESTABLISHED BY THE MASTER PLAN AND AS THE CITY MOVES FORWARD WITH APPOINTMENTS, WE SHOULD MAKE SURE THAT THE PROCESS

805
02:42:30.807 --> 02:42:42.085
FOLLOWS THE FRAMEWORK THAT WAS ESTABLISHED AND THAT ROXBURY RESIDENTS, COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS AND ELECTED OFFICIALS CONTINUE TO HAVE THE ROLE AND VISION FOR THEM UNDER

806
02:42:42.085 --> 02:42:54.164
THE MASTER PLAN. WE CANNOT SELECTIVELY RELY ON THE ROCKS VERY STRATEGIC MAP MASTER PLAN WHEN IT IS CONVENIENT. IF WE RECOGNIZE THAT DOCUMENT

807
02:42:54.164 --> 02:43:06.476
AS THE FOUNDATION FOR THE OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE, THEN WE ALSO HAVE TO RESPECT THE PROVISIONS THAT ESTABLISH A ROLE FOR THE ROXBURY NEIGHBORHOOD COUNCIL AND THE COMMUNITY ITSELF.

808
02:43:06.476 --> 02:43:18.822
COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION WILL NOT SIMPLY MEAN INFORMING RESIDENTS ABOUT DECISIONS AFTER THEY HAVE BEEN MADE. IT HAS TO MEAN PROVIDING RESIDENTS WITH A MEANINGFUL ROLE IN SHAPING THOSE DECISIONS

809
02:43:18.822 --> 02:43:29.232
FROM THE BEGINNING. AS ROXBURY CONTINUES TO EXPERIENCE SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENT AND CHANGE. WE NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT THE PEOPLE WHO CALL THE NEIGHBORHOOD HOME CONTINUE TO

810
02:43:29.232 --> 02:43:41.278
HAVE A REAL VOICE IN DETERMINING ROXBURY FUTURE. THANK YOU, MADAM PRESIDENT. THANK YOU, COUNCILOR CULPEPPER. CHAIR RECOGNIZES CANCER COUNCIL MEJIA CANCER.

811
02:43:41.278 --> 02:43:52.455
YOU HAVE THE FLOOR. THANK YOU, MADAM PRESIDENT. AND WITH YOUR PERMISSION, I'M JUST GOING TO REMAIN SEATED. IS THAT OKAY? GO AHEAD. >> AND YOU? UH, THANK YOU, MADAM PRESIDENT. AND THANK YOU TO COUNCILOR CULPEPPER FOR ADDING ME.

812
02:43:52.455 --> 02:44:03.767
THIS RESOLUTION RECOGNIZES THE IMPORTANT ROLE THE ROXBURY NEIGHBORHOOD COUNCIL, ALSO KNOWN AS THE RNC, PLAYS IN ARTICLE 50 OF THE BOSTON ZONING CODE TO ENSURE THAT THE ROXBURY
