AND THE CONSENT AGENDA IS APPROVED. OUR NEXT ITEM IS RECEIVING AND FILING AN OVERVIEW OF THE OPIOID SETTLEMENT FUNDS STRATEGIC AND THE CITY'S RESPONSE TO THE
"OPR OPIOID EPIDEMIC. HERE TO QUICK THAT IS CHAIRMAN CHAPLAIN AND POSSIBLY DEPUTY DIRECTOR TO RICE. >> WELCOME. >> GOOD AFTERNOON, CHAIR CHAVEZ AND COUNCIL MEMBERS.
LET ME PULL THIS UP REAL QUICK. >> OKAY. GOOD AFTERNOON. DAMON CHAPLAIN, COMMISSIONER OF THE MINNEAPOLIS HEALTH DEPARTMENT. I AM HERE WITH DEPUTY COMMISSIONER RICHIE TO GIVE A PRESENTATION ON THE OPIOID
SETTLEMENT FUND STRATEGIC PLANNING PROCESS. AND SO THIS IS PART TWO OF THE LEGISLATIVE DIRECTIVE THAT WAS ISSUED IN 2024. PART ONE OF THIS DIRECTIVE WAS PRESENTED IN 2024 BY DEPUTY
DIRECTY TO RICHIE, WHICH REALLY TALKED ABOUT A NEEDS ASSESSMENT FOR STAFF, FUNDING AND OTHER RESOUR RESOURCES TO FULLY IMPLEMENT A COMPREHENSIVE OPIOID RESPONSE PROGRAM.
SO TODAY I WILL BE SHARING WITH YOU PART TWO OF THAT LEGISLATIVE DIRECTIVE, WHICH IS AN OVERVIEW OF THE LONG-TERM STRATEGY FOR THE USE OF OPIOID SETTLEMENT FUNDS AND ALSO A COMPREHENSIVE OVERVIEW OF THE CITY'S PROPOSED
OPIOID RESPONSE LED BY THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT. ANDO WHEN WE THINK ABOUT THE OPIOID SETTLEMENT FUNDS THAT WE RECEIVEDHUS FAR, SINCE 2022, IN 2022, THESE SETTLEMENT FUND
ARE FRONT LOADED, AN AND SO IN THE FIRST COUPLE OF YEARS YOU SEE LARGER INSTALLMENTS AND OVER PERIOD OF TIME THOSE STALL T. IN 2022, THE CITY RECEIVED $2.1
MILLION AND IN 2023, THEY RECEIVED APPROXIMATELY $500,000. IN 2024, $3.2 MILLION. AND 2025 TO DATE WE HAVE RECEIVED ABOUT $115,000. AND SO THE TOTAL EXPENDED IN
2025 HAS BEEN ABOUT $1 MILLION, AND SO WE HAVE A CURNT FUND BALANCE WITH SOME ENCUMBRANCES ABOUT $2.8 MILLION.
SO IN 2021, THERE WAS THE NATIO REACHED WHICH RESULTED IN ABOUT $56 BILLION. THE STATE OF MINNESOTA WAS AWARDED UPWARDS OF $500 MILLION, OF WHICH 75% HAD TO ALLOCATED T
COUNTY OR LOC MUNICIPALITIES. THE CITY OF MINNEAPOLIS WAS SET TO RECEIVE APPROXIMATELY $18 MILLION OVER 17 YEARS BETWEEN 2022 AND 2038. AND IN REGULAR INSTALLMENTS OF ROUGHLY ABOUT $800,000 TO $1 MILLION PER YEAR.
THE OPIOID SETTLEMENT FUND CAN BESED FOR A VARIETY OF DIFFERENT WAYS TO SUPPORT PREVENTION TREATMENT AND RECOVERY STRATEGIES AS OUTLINED IN THE MINNESOTA MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT. THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT ELECTED TO DEVELOP A STRATEGIC PLAN TO
INFORM THE USE OF THESE FUNDS GOING RWARD. OVER NEXT THREE TO FIVE YEARS. THIS PROCESS INSURED THAT INDIVIDUALS WITH LIVED EXPERIENCE, RESIDENTS, COMMUNITY, AND GOVERNMENT PARTNERS AND RELEVANT CITY DEPARTMENTS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY
TO PROVI INPUT. AND SO IN 2023, 2024, ROUGHLY ABOUT $3.5 MILLION WAS ALLOCATED TO DEVELOPING THE STRATEGIC PLAN, COMMUNITY-BASED TREATMENT
STRATEGIES INCLUDING $15000 FOR UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES, CAPITAL INVESTMENTS A TREATMENT FACILITIES. A MOBILE MEDICAL IT. STAFFING FOR VARIOUS OPIOID RESPONSE PROGRAMS. THE PURCHASE OF THE NARCAN
VENDING MACHINE AT STATION 21, AND THEN $350,000, WHICH IS EARMARKED BY COUNCILMEMBER OSMAN FOR THE ELLIOTT PARK NEIGHBOROD. IN 2025 ROUGHLY ABOUT $1.5 MILLION OF THE OPIOID SETTLEMENT
DOLLARS WERE ALLOCATED TO STAFFING FOR THE OPIOID RESPONSE INITIATIVES OPERATION OF THE MOBILE MEDICAL UNIT AND THEN COMMUNITY-BASED HARM REDUCTION, PREVENTION AND TREATMENT STRATEGIES INCLUDING THE 150 ONGOING EXPENSES FOR INDIGENOUS
AND THE EAST AFRICAN COMMUNITIES. APPROXIMATELY $128,000 FOR THE LITTERCLEANUP FOR SYRINGES. AND THE SECOND VENDING MACHINE, WHICH WE HAVE PURCHASED BUT NOT DETERMINED A LOCATION WILL MOST LIKELY BE OR IN NORTH
MINNEAPOLIS. SO WHEN WE LOOK AT THE STATE AND COUNTY PRIORITIES FOR MINNEAPOLIS AS IT RELATES TO OPIOID SETTLEMENT DOLLARS, WE C
APPROXIMATELY 38 GRANTS TOTALS ABOUT $8 MILLION WERE DISTRIBUTEDROM HENNEPIN COUNTY. THOSE AREAS OF INVESTMENT WERE PRIMARILY IN HARM REDUCTION AND THE TREATMENT AREA. THEN WE LOOK ALSO AT THE STATE FUNDING FOR 2024 FOR
MINNEAPOLIS, WE LOOK A A TOTAL OF EIGHT GRANTS TOTALLING $5 MILLION WITH THE BK OF THOSE RESOURCES GOING TOWARDS PREVENTION AND RECOVERY. AND SO WHEN WE LOOK AT A SUMMARY
OF THE STATE AND COUNTY OPIOID PRIORITY, WE CAN SEE HERE FOR PREVENTION, WE'RE AT AUT 3.7 MILLION FOR BOTH STATE AND COUNTY, FOR MINNEOLIS. $3.6 MILLION IN HARM REDUCTION FOR STATE AND COUNTY.
$4 MILLION FOR TREATMENT AND $1.6 MILLION FOR RECOVERY TOTALLING ABOUT $13 MILLION FOR 2024-2025 FROM BOTHTATE AND COUNTY FROM MIEAPOLIS. SO WHEN WE LOOK AT THE STRATEGIC ENGAGEMENT FRAMEWORK THAT WAS
USED TO DEVELOP THE STRATEGIC PLAN, WE SEE A SUMMARY OF THE PRIMARY STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT STRATEGIES AS WELL AS ORGANIZATIONS AND GROUPS THAT WERE ENGAGED. WE THROUGH THAT PROCESS WE DEVELOPED AND DISTRIBUTED
COMMUNITY SURVEYS, FOCUS GROUPS, AND ENGAGED WITH FOCUS GROUPS WITHIN LIVED EXPERIENCES. WE INTERVIEWED FOCUSROUPS WITH PROVIDERS AND PARTNERS AND GOVERNMENTAL PARTNERS AND ADVISORY GROUPS AS WELL.
YOU CAN SEE THE LIST OF FOLKS WHO WERE PART OF THOSE ENGAGEMENT GROUPS. AND SO ONGOING EFFORTS, THIS IS A BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE KEY STRATEGIES PURSUED IN PREVIOUS
YEARS. PROVIDING A NETWORK OF SYRINGE DISPAL UNITS TO SUPPORT SYRINGE LITTER MITTCATION WITHIN THE SEASON. CONTRACT WITH THE COMMUNITY PARTNERS TO PROVIDE ONGOING EDUCATION ON THE ADMINISTRATIO AND DISTRIBUTION OF NALOXONE. IMPLEMENTING A SPITAL-BASED
MOUD PILOT PROGRAM WHICH WE CALL THE FIRST STEP PROGRAM, ESTABLISHING ONGOING RELATIONSHIPS WITH COMMUNITY PARTNERS TO DEVELOP A CONCERTED STRATEGY. CONTRACTING WITH COMMUNITY PARTNERS TO IMPLEMENT PRENTION PROGRAMS WITH COMMUNITIES IMPACTED BY THE EPIDEMIC.
AND THEN COLLABORATING WITH INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL PARTNERS TO EXPAND ACCESSO MOUD AND OTHER TREATMENT OPTIONS. >> WE LOOK AT THE CURRENT AND EMERGING PRIORITIES THAT WE HAVE.
THAT WE HAVE BEEN ENENGAGED WITH AND NOT TO SHOW EVERYTHING THAT'S BEEN DONE, BUT HIGHLIGHT EMERGING EFFORTS. THE MOBILE MEDICAL UNIT, WE ARE HOPING TO HAVE THAT UP AND RUNNING SOMETIME AROUND THE MIDDLE OF JULY THIS YEAR. THE NARCAN VENDING MACHINE
EXPANSION, WHICH WE HAVE PURCHASED. THE SAFE RECOVERY SITES RESEARCH, THE CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONS NAR IS IN PROGRESS AND WE SHOULD HAVE SOMEONE HIRED AND STARTING THAT PROCESS RELATIVELY SOON.
THE FIRST STEP EXPANSION OGRAM, WHICH IS EXCITING IS TOT EXPAND IT OUT TO THE ELLIOTT PARK NEIGHBORHOOD ANDHE
RIVERSIDE DEPARTMENT AND M-HEALTH FAIRVIEW. SOME OF THE PREVENTION STRATEGIES THAT WE ARE WORKING ON ARE THROUGH THE SCHOOL-BASED CLINICS COLLABORATION WHICH IS THE NARCAN TRAINING AND THE
NEUROSCIENCE, WHICH IS THE SCIENCE OF THE BRAIN PROGRAM. SOME OF THE FINAL GOALS AND STRATEGIES WAS TO ENHANCE OUR PREVENTION AND RECOVERY SUPPORT FOR THE COMMUNITY.
SUPPORT ACCESS TO EVIDENCE-BASED CULTURE SPECIFIC TREATMENT, AND IS WAS A NEW ONE AND IMPROVED COORDINATION AND ALIGNMENT BETWEEN STATE, COUNTY, AND LOCAL AGENCIES AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR
ONGOING COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT. SO WE LOOK AT GOALS AND STRATEGIES FOR STRATEGY AT ENHANCEDREVENTION AND RECOVERY, THESE ARE SOME EXAMPLES OF POTENTIAL PROGRAMS
THAT WE WILL BE LIFTING UP AROUND PREVENTION AND RECOVERY
SUPPORT. GOAL B, SUPPORT FOR ACCESS-BASED CULTURAL SPECIFIC TREATMENT. AND WE HAVE PROGRAMS WE HAVE BEEN WORKING ON AND OUR MOUD PROGRAM, TRADITIONAL CEREMONIES, PROGRAMS FOR OUR SOMALI COMMUNITY PRACTICES AND
AFRICAN-AMERICAN COMMUNITY PRACTICES. AND MOTRING FROM THE INSIDE OUT, CELEBRATING FAMILIES. THE FIRST STEP PROGRAM, WHICH WE WILL BE EXPANDING AND THEN THE MOBILE MEDICAL SERCES WITH THE
MEDICAL-BASTED PRACTICES FOR ITEM B. FOR IM C, IMPROVES COORDINATION AND ALIGNMENT, WE HAVE ALREADY BEGUN HAVING THE MEETINGS WITH THE COUNTY AND STATE. WE HAVE PROBABLY HAD THREE MEETINGS TO DATE. THOSE MEETINGS ARE SUPPORTED BY
HEALTH DEPARTMENT FUNDS WITH THE OUTSIDE INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR HELPING TO FACILITATE THOSE CONVERSATIONS. THOSE ARE GOING VERY WELL. WE ARE LE GINNING TO USE COMMON LANGUAGE, COMMON DEFINITIONS AND LOOKING FOR OPPORTUNITIES FOR US
TO COLLABORATE EVEN DEEPER. THE CITY HAS A CONVENER AND WE HAVE BEEN CONVENING THOSE MEETINGS. THOSE WILL MOST LIKELY CONTINUE THROUGHOUT THE SUM WE ARE THE CITY BEING THE BACKBONE -- SUMMER WITH THE CITY BEING THE BACKBONE ORGANIZER FOR THAT.
QUARTERLYROVIDER MEETINGS. WE ARE CREATED WITH THE GROUPS THAT HAVE BEEN IMPACTED BE I THE FEDERAL CUTS. WE ARE WKING WITH THEM TO DEEPEN THE COLLABORATION AND RELATIONSHIPS TO FURTHER SOME OF OUR OWN INITIATIVES AND COLLABORATE WITH THEM ON SOME OF
THEIR INITIATIVES. AND THEN TRANSPARENT COMMUNICATION ON GRANT OPPORTUNITIES AND AWARDS. ONE OF THE THINGS WE FOUND THROUGHOUT THE STRATEGIC PLANNING PROCESS IS THAT WE HAVE IN SOME SITUATIONS, WE HAVE THREE DIFFERENT AGENCIES FUNDING THE SAME ORGANIZATION FOR THE
SAME EFFORT. SO THERE IS AN OPPORTUNITY THERE FOR US TO DIVERSIFY SOME OF THE FUNDING STREAMS AND STRATEGIST. TH LAST ONE IS THE ONGOING COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AND EFFORT.
WE HAVE A COUPLE OF IDEAS. THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT HAS HAD A COUPLE OF IDEAS AND AFTER THE MEETINGS WITH THEOUNTY AND STATE, IT IS OBVIOUS THAT IT IS MUCH BETTER WHEN WE WORK TOGETHER AND DEVELOP THE STRATEGIES TOGETHER, SO WE'RE IN
E PROCESS OF DOING THAT NOW. >> AND LASTLY, ACTION STEPS, FUTURE YEAR FUNDING PRIORITIES WILL CONTINUE TO BE IDENTIFIED THROUGH THE INTERGOVERNMENTAL COLLABORATION PROCESS, REGULAR ENGAGEMENT WITH COMMUNITY-BASED
PROVIDER, AND ONGOING COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT EFFORTS CREATING THE STRUCTURES AND PROCESSES FOR THIS ONGOING COLLABORATION AND ENGAGEMENT WILL BE AMONG THE FIRST TEST OF THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT, WHICH WE'VE ALREADY
BEGUN. WE HAVE ESTABLISHED REGULAR MEETINGS AND REGULAR CADENCE OF PROVIDER PARTNER UPDATE MEETINGS. ESTABLISH A PLAN AND PROCESS FOR ONGOING COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AND LASTLY ESTABLISH THE FUNDING STRATEGY FOR DESIGNATED PROGRAMS
AND SERVICES. THAT'S A THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION. AND I'M AVAILABLE FOR QUESTIONS. >> THANK YOU SO MUCH. I WOULD LIKE TO RECOGNIZE THAT WE HAVE BEEN JOINED BY VICE CHAIR WONSLEY.
I HAVE A FEW QUESTIONS, COMMISSIONER. THANKS FOR THE PRESENTATION. A LITTLE BUILT ABOUT THE GENERAL FUNDS FOR SYRINGE LITTER CLEANUP. I FORGOT WHAT SLIDE THAT WAS, BUT DO YOU HAVE AN UPDATE ON THAT? I ASSUME IT'S THE SLIDE
SAYS IT IS $127,000, AND THAT MUCH. >> YEAH. >> AND ALSO SPLIT BETWEEN THE FUNDING COORDINATOR CLEANUP. ARE YOU INCLUDING THE PUBLIC HEALTH SPEALIST POSITION IN THAT? >> YES. >> DO YOU HAVE AN UPDATE? >> I THINK IT'S BEEN POSTED AND THE -- IS THE POSTING CLOSEED?
POSTED AND CLOSED. >> POSTED, CLOSED, I AM AUMING INTERVIEWS BEGINNING SOON. >> YEP. >> THAT IS EXCITI. THE SECOND COMPONENT OF MY QUESTION IS THERE WAS A COMMUNITY SURVEY YOU MENTIONED IN THE SLIDES WITH AROUND 250
RESPONSES. DO YOU HAVE A QUICK REVIEW OF WHAT YOU CAN SHARE THAT WAS IN THE SURVEY ANDERSON KELLIHER THERE WERE GENERAL THINGS OF THAT. >> THE GENERAL THINGS WERE INCLUDED IN THIS PRESENTATION,
INCLUDED HERE. IDEALLY THEY WANT MORE TRANSPARENCY AND UNT THES TO ENGAGE AND BE CLOSER -- AND OPPORTUNITIES TO ENGAGE AND BE CLOSER TO THE DECISION PROCESS. THAT CAME OUT OF THAT TO MAKE SURE WE HAVE THE VOICES OF FOLKS WITH LIVED EXPERIENCE. >> PERFECT. IF YOU CAN HAVE A COUNCIL
FOLLOW-UP WITH MORE IN-DEPTH OF THAT SURVEY, THAT WOULD BE HELPFUL FOR US TO UNDERSTAND. >> SURE. >> COOL. >> AN ADMINISTRATIVE FOLLOW-UP WOULD BE MORE IN-DEPTH ANALYSIS ON THE SURVEY CONDUCTED BY STAFF. >> THANK U. THAT WOULD BE SUPER GREAT. AND MY LAST QUESTION, REALLY
EXCITED ABOUTHE SAFE RECOVERY SITE RESEARCH COMPONENT. I THINK ON THE SIGN IT SAID THERE IS CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONS IN PROCESS. CAN YOU REMIND US WHEN THE GOAL IS TO HAVE THAT RESEARCH DONE AND PRESENTED, I AM ASSUMING TO THE CITY COUNCIL?
>> CHAIR CHAVE I WILL HAVE -- >> DEPUTY COMMISSIONER RESPOND TO THAT ONE. >> GOOD AFTERNOON. DEPUTY COMMISSIONER HEIDI RICHIE FOR THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT. THROUGH THE CHAIR, SO WE ARE GOING THROUGH THE CONTRACT NEGOTIATION PROCESS, SO WE SELECTED SOMEONE AND WE'RE GOING THROUGH THAT.
KEEP IN MIND WE'RE ALSO WORKING WITH RAMSEY COUNTY ON THIS, SO WE'RE GOING T GET THIS SORT OF STUDY AND ANALYSIS AND THEN THE SECOND PART OF TT WILL BE THE ENGAGEMENT AROUND THIS ISSUE.
I AM NOT EXACTLY SURE ON A TIMELINE RIGHT NOW FOR THAT SINCE REALLY THAT IS GOING TO DEPENDENT ON WHEN WE ARE ABLE TO FINALIZE THE CONTRACT. I CAN DEFINITELY KEEP YOU POSTED. >> THAT WOULD BE REALLY HELPFUL AND APPRECIATE THE WORK DONE
WITH THAT ANDERSON KELLIHER THOSE ARE ALL THE QUESTIONS I HAD. THANYOU FOR THE PRESENTATION. NEXT UP WE HAVE VICE CHAIR WONSLEY.>> THANK YOU, CHAIR CHA. SORRY. LOSING MY VOICE. >> THANK YOU, COMMISSIONER
CHAPLAIN, FOR GIVING THIS PRESENTATION. I KNOW MY OFFICE ALONG WITH VICE CHAIR CHAVEZ HAVE WORKED WITH PUBLIC HEALTH LEADERSHIP AND IN THE SPAN O SEVERAL MONTHS TO GET THIS FULFILLED THAT I BELIEVE I AND COUNCIL PRESIDENT
PAYNE INITIALLY AUTHED. I DO WANT TO ASK JUST SEEING SUPPORTING DOMENTS, THAT PART IS MISSING IN TERMS OF THE LEGISLATIVE DIRECTIVE AND IF WE CAN GET THAT ADDED BECAUSE I WAS LOOKING FOR IT JUST TO MAKE SURE
THERE WAS COR AND THAT BEING SAID, THIS IS SOMETHING WE HAVE HEARD FROM OUR CONSTITUENTS OF SEEING HOW THE CITY IS RESPONSIVE TO THE OPIOID CRISIS THAT IS BEING MANIFESTED IN A VARIETY OF WAYS. I THINK WE HAVE HAD A NUMBER OF CONVERSATIONS, SOME OF US HERE, AND THE EXPERTS YOU HAVE BROUGHT
BEFORE US TO TALK ABOUT THIS AND SEEING IT AND IN PTICULAR AND WHAT ARE WE DOING AS A CITY TO BECOME RESPONSIVE TO A GROWING CRISIS AND HAS BEEN AN EXISTING CRISIS.
REALLY EXCITED TO GET SOME MORE OF A BAKED OUT ON AND BE IT THE OPIOID SETTLEMENT FUNDS AND WHAT ARE SOME OF THE CONCRETE STRATEGY TO PUT IN PLACE AND RE.
THE FIRST QUESTION I DID HAVE WAS GOING BACK TO SLIDE 11, BUT JUST GETTING CLARITY ON -- I COULDN'T -- AGAIN, CLARITY, BUT IT SOUND LIKE IN THE PROCESS OF OVERVIEWING ALL OF THE ACTIVITIES THAT YOU ALL HAVE BEEN DOING OR IN CONVERSATIONS WITH COMMUNITY PARTNER, YOU MENTION THESE ARE EHER CURRENT
OR EMERGING PRIOR TIS AND JUST WANTED TO GET A SENSE IF THE MARGIN PRIORITIES WERE FOR SURE GOING TO BE BAKED INTO THE FINAL GOALS AND STRATEGIES YOU LAY OUT ON SLIDES 12, 13, AND 14. AND ALSO MORE EXHAUSTIVELY
LISTED IN THE ACTUAL REPORT YOU ATTACHED. >> SO THE IDEA IS, CHAIR CHAVEZ, COUNCIL MEMBER WONSLEY, THE IDEA IS FOR US TO REALLY -- THE POWER
IS REALLY WORKING WITH THE GOVERNMENT TO FIND WHERE THE GAPS ARE, LISTEN TO THE COMMUNITY GAPS ARE AND THOSE PROCESS FROM THE ENGAGEMENT AND
THE PARTNERS AS WELL, WE REALLY DON'T HAVE -- I AM, MYSELF, REALLY GETTING AN UNDERSTANDING OF HOW THE COUNTY SYSTEM WORKS. AND SO HOW DOES THAT REALLY WORK IN SUPPORTING MINNEAPOLIS AND SO
THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT CAN REALLY ENGAGE. WE CAN REALLY BE STRONG. ROITH NOW WE'RE LOOKING AT PREVENTION -- RIGHT NOW WE'RE LOOKING AT PREVENTION D RECOVERY AS THE TWO SPACES TO HAVE THE BEST OVERLAP. THAT STRATEGY IS GETTING INTO SCHOOLS, ENGAGING WITH YOUNG
FOLKS AND TELLING THEM ABOUT THE HAR HAR HARMS -- TO GET THE MEDICAL MOBILE UNIT UP AND RUNNING.WE C
COMMUNITY, RIGHT INTO THE COMMUNITY. WE CAN DRIVE IT INTO THE COMMUNITY. WHH GIVES THEM AN OPPORTUNITY FOR GETTING INTO A LONG-TERM RECOVERY. THOSE ARE THE TWO STRATEGIES RIGHT NOW TT WE'RE LOOKING AT TO REALLY KIND OF PUSH FORWARD. SOME OF THOSE PROGRAMS ARE
ALREADY WORKING. WE'VE HAD DEPUTY COMMISSIONER RICH AND HER TEAM HAS ALREADY PUT SOME OF THE GROUND PIECES IN PLACE. WE HAVEOLKS HIRED. WE'RE WORKING ON THE OPERATIONAL PLAN FOR THEMMU AND THE PROGRAMS FOR THE SCHOOL EITHER HAVE BEGUN OR WILL BE BEGINNING
RELATIVELY SOON. WE ARE PUSHING FORWARD WITH THE STRATEGIES THAT HAVE BEEN RECOMMENDED THUS FAR. >> OKAY. I'M SEEING HERE, I AM ALSO TRYING TO CSS RELATE WITH THE
REPORT SO WHERE YOU LAY OUT. SOME OF THAT STRATEGIES IN THE REPORT, SO LOOKING AT TH, TOO, AND THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALSO INCLUDING THE PROPOSED FUNDING AMOUNTS WITH THOSE, TOO, AND
THINKING OF AS WE'RE WALKING INTO A NEW BUDGET SEASON, THINGS WE SHOULD BE LOOKING AHEAD AND AS YOU ALL MIGHT BE POSING SOME OF THESE THINGS OR ALSO AS YOU'RE HAVING CONVERSATIONS WITH OUR PARTNERS AND TALKING ABOUT GAPS. MAYBE THEY MIGHT BE WILLING TO PICK UP SOME OF THESE COMPONENTS.
BUT JUST SEEING, LIKE, NOT ALL OF THESE THINGS ARE 2025-2016 STRATEGY. THIS WASUST GIVEN AS A SYNOPSIS. I AM GNG OFF AGE 47. THAT'S GOOD TO KNOW.
I'M GLAD CHAIR CHAVEZ BROUGHT UP THE AND THAT WAS ALSO SOMETHING THAT HEARD LOTS OF FEEDBACK AROUND IN TERM OF WHERE IS THE PROGRESS ON THAT. IF WEE STILL SEEING ALIGNMENT
WITH THE STATES ON SUPPORTING THAT EFFORT, WHICH SOUNDS LIKE THERE IS, WHICH IS GREAT. AND GOING TO -- THERE WAS A QUESTION I HAD RELATED TO SLIDE 16.
ALSO CLARITY ON THE -- INITIALLY YOU MENTION THESE WERE DONE, BUT THEY DO HAVE THE TO BE DETERMINED KIND OF EMPHASIZED OF THREE OF THE FOUR SO ARE THEY AN ACTION? IN THE FIRST ONE YOU
MENTIONED THEY ARE COMPLETED IN TERMS OF ESTABLISHING A REGULAR MEETING IN ITEM ONE, BUT AS YOU THEY WERE COMPLETED BUT SAID TO BE DETERMINED. ARTHOSE BE FIGURED OUT?
>> WE HAVE REGULAR CADENCE WITH THE STATE AND COUNTY. WE HAVE BEEN MEETING WITH THEM, PROBABLY THREE OR FOUR MEETINGS, BUT THEY HAVE BEEN KIND OF AD HOC WITH THE COLLECTIVE BODY, SO
THAT'S SCHEDULED TO BE MORE SOLIDIFIED GOING FORWARD, SO WE HAVE ONE BIG MEETING COMING UP, PLANNING TO BE SOMETIME IN THE MMER. AND SO WE'LL HAVE THAT MEETING SET UP AND THAT SET OFF A SET OF OTHER CADENCES FOR MEETINGS. THOSE TWO THINGS HAVE ALREADY BEEN SET UP. WE'RE SET UP FOR MEETINGS, I
THINK, THROUGH SEPTEMBER WITH MEETINGS WITH TH STATE AND COUNTY. IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF MONTHS, MAYBE MONTH OR SO, WE WILL FIGURE OUT HOW TO WORK WITH THE FQAC'S. >> WITH THE WOUB COUNTY, I AM
ASSUMING THERES SOME OVERLAP WITH THE FUNDING STRATEGY. IS THAT FOR THE PARTNERS, TOO, AND THINKING OF THE DISCUSSIONS OR OUTCOMES THAT HAPPENS AT THE STATE, WE ALREADY KNOW IT'S A MESS NATIONALLY, BUT DEPENDING
ON IF FUNNELED -- FUNDING MEASURES AND THERE ARE GOI TO BE CONCERNS AROUND THAT YOU ARE SUSTAINABILITY, SO JUST THINKING THROUGH IF KIND OF URGENCY AROUND SETTING UP THIS MEETI WHERE IF THIS WAS JUST INTERNALLY SOMETHING YOU ALL
WERE GOING TO BE FIGURING OUT FOR THE CITY SIDE OF FUNDING. >> THE FINANCIAL PIECE, WE GET TO HAVE ALL THE PAIN POINTS IN THE ROOM AT THE SAME TIME. SO THAT IS SER HELPFUL, BECAUSE WE ARE ALL TALK ABOUT WHAT'S HAPPENING, WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN FROM A FINANCIAL
PERSPECTIVE. REALISTICALLY WHAT WE WERE TALKING ABOUT IS MAKE SURE THE FUNDING WAS DISPERSED EVENLY ACROSS THE COMMUNITY. WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE WE WEREN'T OVERSPENDING OR OVERBUDGETING IN ONE AREA WITH
ONE ORGANIZATION NOT KNOWING IT. THERE ARE SOME SITUATIONS WHERE ONE ORGANATION IS RECEIVING FUNDING FROM THREE DIFFERENT GOVERNMENT AGENCIES. THAT'S NOT THE BEST WAY, THE MOST EFFICIENT WAY OF GETTING SERVICES OUT. SO WE WANT TO BE ABLE TO
IDENTIFY THESE SITUATIONS WHEN EVERYBODY IS IN TH ROOM, WE CAN TALK ABOUT WHAT IS HAPPENING NOW, WHAT IS HAPPENING DOWN THE ROAD AND FROM WHAT HAPPENED IN THE PAST, SO IT IS RLLY SUPER HELPFUL.>> AWESOME.
THOSE ARE THE QUESTIONS, I HAD, CHAIR CHAVEZ. >> UP XT, COUNCIL MEMBER RAINVILLE. >> THANK YOU, CHAIR. COMMISSIONER, THANK YOU FOR THI GREAT PRESENTATION. VERY HELPFUL, BUT DO YOU ANTICIPATE ANY RESULTS OF LOWER DRUGS BEING BROUGHT INTO THE
COMMUNITY WITH THE RECENT BORDER CONTROL ISSUES? >> THOSE ARE CONVERSATIONS THAT WE WOULD HAVE THROUGHOUT THE COLLECTIVE CONVERSATIONS WITH THE COUNTY AND STATE WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT, BUT WE HAVEN'T HEARD ANYTHING YET. >> RIGHT NOW THE SUPPLY IS STDY?
>> AS FAR AS I KNOW, NOTHING HAS CHANGED SINCE A YEAR AGO WHEN WE DID THE STRATEGIC PLAN. >> OKAY, GREAT. COULD YOU SPEAK MORE ABOUT THE MOBILE MEDICAL UNIT? I WOULD LIKE TO DIG A LITTLE DEEPER ON THAT. >> CHAIR CHAVEZ, COUNCIL MEMBER RAINVILLE, IF YOU DON'T MIND, I
WILL INVITE DEPUTY RICHIE TO TALK ABOUT THAT. >> THANK YOU FOR THE QUESON, COUNCIL MEMBER RAINVILLE, THROUGH THE CHAIR. WE ACTUALLY HAVE OUR NURSES IN THE AUDIENCE RIGHT NOW, SO SAY HI! AND OUR DRIVER ALSO, TONY, SO HE
IS PART OF THE OPIOID RESPONSE TEAM AND HE ALSO TOOK THE COMMERCIAL DRIVER'S LICENSE TEST AND IS OUR DRIVER AND SUZANNE WHO ARE IN THE AUDIENCE AND CAN
PROBABLY ANSWER THAT QUESTION BETTER THAN I, BUT WHAT WE'RE WORKING ON IS FOCUSSING ON GETTING OUR MOBILE MEDICAL UNIT LICENSE. WE HAVE TO GET THAT LICENSE AND
PLAN OUT THE LOCATIONS WE'LL BE. IN ORDER TO GET THE LICENSE, WE HAVE TO PROVIDE A LIST OF LOCATIS, NOT, LIKE SPECIFIC, BUT WE ARE WORKING ON THAT. ALSOITH THE -- WE'RE GOING TO BE WORKING WITH VACCINATIONS. WE'RE WORKING WITH OUR SCHOOL-BASED CLINICS TO SEE WHERE WE CAN HELP THERE.
BUT THE MAIN FOCUS REALLY IS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE CAN GET HEALTH CARE ACCESS TO PEOPLE THAT DON'T HAVE TRADITIONAL HEALTH CARE ACCESS. AND SO WE'LL BE GOING TO COMMUNITY EVENT. WE'LL BE PARTNERING WITH PLACES LIKE THE NATIVE AMERICAN COMMUNITY CLINIC.
THE COMMISSIONER MENTIONED FQAC'S, FEDERALLY QLIFIED HEALTH CARE CENTERS TO MAKE SURE WE'RE WORKING WITH THEM ON A REFERRAL PROCESS BECAUSE THIS IS NOT A PRIMARY CARE UNIT AND WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WHEN WE SEE PEOPLE, WE CAN THEM HELP
REFER THEM INTO PRIMARY CARE. WE'RE WORKING ON THOSE RELATIONSHIPS WITH OTHER COMMUNITY PROVIDERS SO THAT WE CAN MAKE SURE THAT THERE'S CONTINUITY OF CARE FROM WHEN WE'RE ABLE TO SEE SOMEONE. AND THEN THEY CAN GO ON AND GET THAT, HAVE THAT PROVIDER THAT THEY CAN SEE FOR ALL THEIR OTHER
ITEM. WE HAVE WOUND CARE A DENTAL CHAIR. THERE'S AN ADA LIFT, SO WE CAN MAKE SURE IT'S A ACCESSIBLE AS POSSIBLE. AND THEN ALSO THE NURSES HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH T HOMELESS
RESPONSE TEAM TO SORT OF HELP WHEN THEY ARE ISSUES BEYOND THE H.R.T. AND ARE MORE OF A HEALTH-RELATED NATURE, SO I HOPE THATENS AS YOUR QUESTION. IF THERE ARE ANYMORE SPECIFICS I CAN PROVIDE LATER, I WOULD BE HAPPY TO THAT THAT. >> NO, THAT'S GREAT.
THANKS TO THE TEAM FOR COMING DOWN. I WISH YOU THE BEST OF LUCK. LET US KNOW. WE'RE ALL SUPPORTIVE OF YOU. WE WANT TO HELP YOU SUCCEED. THIS IS A GRE PLAN, SO THANK YOU. >> AND I THINK THAT IS ALL THE
QUESTIONS. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE PRESENTATION, COMMISSIONER AND DEPUTY COMMISSIONER. WE REALLY APPRECIATE IT. >> ALL RIGHT. SEEING NO FURTHER QUESTIONS, I'LL DIREC THE CLERK TO RECEIVE AND FILE THAT UPDATE. THE FINAL ITEM IS RECEIVING AND FILING A REPORT ON THE POLLUTION
CONTROL ANNUAL REGISTRATION, ALSO KNOWN AS P CAR FEE. HERE TO KICK OFF THAT PRESENTATION IS JENNY LANSING, THE SENIOR PROJECT MANAGER.
WELCOME. >> I AM HERE TODAY TO PRESENT TO YOU THE POLLUTION CONTROL ANNUAL
REGISTRATION CARBON DIOXIDE FEE UPDATE. THIS FEE UPDATE IS THE RESULT OF A LEGISLATIVE DIRECTIVE. THE LEGISLATIVE DIRECVE READS, A FEE STUDY OF THE POLLUTION CONTROL ANNUAL RISTRATION FEE FOR CARBON DIOXIDE EQUIVALENTS
TO RLECT UPDATED EXPENSE AND REVENUE ESTIMATES. THE FEE STUDY SHOULD BE BASED ON A 95% RECOVERY RATIO, AND ALIGN WITH ALL RELEVANT FINANCIAL POLICIES.
SO IN FEBRUARY, THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT SIGNED A CONTRACT TO CONDUCT A PCAR CO2E STUDY TO LOOK AT THE COST EFFECTIVENESS OF CARBON DIOXIDE. AT THE SAME TIME THIS WORK BEGAN, HEALTH MET WITH THE
BUDGET OFFICE TO DISCUSS WT IS LEGALLY ALLOWED FOR 2025 COST RECOVERY. THE COST RECOVERY FOR 2025 WILL INCLUDE THE CONTRACT WITH BRAUN AND THE COST OF HIRING AN INDUSTRIAL OUTREACH SPECIALIST WHO WILL BEGIN IN THE FALL.
BECAUSE WE ARE JUST BEGINNING TO STAND UP THE CO2 INDUSTRIAL POLLUTION REDUCTION PROGRAM, THERE ARE NO MITIGATION EXPENSES IN 25 TO BE INCLUDED IN THE COST RECOVERY.
SO THIS TABLE HERE SHOWS HOW WE ARRIVED AT THE 2025 FEE DETERMINATION FOR THE PCAR CO2 FEE. YOU CAN SEE AT THE TOP THE EXPENSE CATEGORIES, WHICH INCLUDE THE CONTRACT WITH BRAUN
INTERTEC FOR $98,000. THE PERSONNEL EXPENSES ARE THE COST OF THE INDUSTRIAL OUTRCH SPECIAL THAIS WILL BEGIN IN THE FALL JUST UNDER $50,000 FOR A TOTAL OF $147,872.
THE INPUT INTO THAT IS THE TONS OF CARBON DIOXIDE EQUIVALENT FOR WHICH THIS FEE WILL BE APPLIED IN 2025. AND THAT AMOUNT IS 3,0 TONS. AT A 95% ROVERY RATE, THAT
CALCULATES OUT TOEN AN EXPENSE OF $4 PER TON OF CARBON DIOXIDE EQUIVALENT. NOW I'LL GIVE A QUICK UPDATE ON THE WORK OF THE BRAUN FEE STUDY. BRAUN INRTEC IS WORKING ON THE
FEE STUDY TO DETERMINE THE 2026 FEE FOR CARBON DIOXIDE. THEIR WORK HAS BEEN DIVIDED INTO TWO PHASES AND FOUR SEPARATE TASK CATEGORIES REVIEWING AND UPDATING THE ANNUAL CARBON DIOXIDE EMISSIONS.
BRAUN INTERTEC REVIEWED ALL THE EMSIONS DATA THAT IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE INITIAL 36 FACILITIES. THEY DIVIDED THEM OUT INTO CATEGORIES ASSOCIATED WITH THE TYPE OF FUEL SO EITHER LIQUID FUEL, WHICH IS DIESEL AND GASOLINE, OR GASEOUS FUEL, WHICH IS NATURAL GAS AND PROPANE.
THEY REVIEWED ALL OF THE AIR PERMITS FOR THESE 36 FACILITIES IN ORDER TO IDENTIFY EACH FACILITY'S EQUIPMENT THAT THEY ARE USING LIQUID FUEL FOR. THEY THEN DETERMINED THE MOST COMMON DIESEL USING EQUIPMENT AT
THESE FACILITIES ARE BOILERS AND EMERGENCY GENERATORS. IN TASK TWO, THEY IDENTIFIED POTENTIAL CARBON FOOTPRINT REDUCTION PROJECTS BASED ON FEASIBILITY, ECONOMIC VIABILITY, AND ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS.
THESE PROJECTS ARE PRIMARILY FOCUSSING ON ALTERNATIVES TO DIESEL FIRED EQUIPMENT. AND TASK THREE, BRAUN HAS DEVELOPED A FRAMEWORK TO CALCULATE POTENTIAL CARBON DIOXIDE RECONDUCTIONS OVER THE
NEXT THREE TOIVE YEARS. THEY ARE CURRENTLY WORKING WITH MULTIPLE VENDORS TO OBTAIN COST INFORMATION FOR THESE ALTERNATIVES. THIS INFORMATION HAS BEEN PRESENTED BEFORE, BUT JUST REMINDER ABOUT THOSE INITIAL 36
FACILITIES THAT WERE INCLUDED IN THE BRA FEE STUDY. THESE ARE LARGE FACILITIES THAT HAVE AN AIR EMISSIONS PERMIT IN THE STATE OF MINNESOTA. WHEN THEY HAVE AN AIR EMISSIONS PERMIT, THEY'RE REQUIRED TO REPORT THE AMOUNT OF COMBUSTIBLE
FUEL THEY USE, AND BASED ON THE AMOUNT AND TYPE OF FUEL, THE MINNESOTA POLLUTION CONTROL AGENCY CALCULATES THEIR GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS. THESE ARE FACILITIES, THESE 36 FACILITIES ARE FACILITIES THAT ARE USING COMBUSTION FUELS THAT ARE OUTSIDE OF FUEL COVERED BY
THE FRANCHISE FEE. AND AS I MENTIONED BEFORE, WE'RE MOSTLY FOCUSED ON BOILERS AND EMERGENCY GENERATORS. THE TYPES OF PROJES BEING EVALUATED BY BRAUN RIGHT NOW ARE
PRIMARILY FOCUSED AND AL TERNIVES TO THE DIESEL FIR EQUIPMENT. THE PROJECTS BEING EVALUATED INCLUDE ALTERNATIVE FUELS, BATTERIES, AND REPLACING OLDER EQUIPMENT WITH NEWER AND ME
EFFICIENT EQUIPMENT. D LOOKING AHEAD TO THE 202 26 CO2 PCAR FEE, THE WORK WILL CONTINUE IN 2025 TO ESTABLISH
THE PROGRAM TO MITIGATE CARBON DIOXIDE FROM THESE INDUSTRIAL SOURCES. HEALTH WILL GIVE A PRESENTATION ON THE PCAR CO2 FEE STUDY IN AUGUST OF 2025, WHICH WILL INCLUDE THE COST OF MITIGATION, AND THAT WILL BE IN COORDINATION WITH THE ANNUAL LICENSE FEE
UPDATE PROCESS. AND THIS IS A FEE THAT WILL THEN BE APPLIED ON JANUARY 1, 2026. THAT ENDS MY PRESENTATION FOR TODAY. I CAN STAND FOR QUESTIONS. >> THANK YOU FOR THE PRESENTATION.
I WILL FIRST PASS IT TO VICE CHAIR WONSLEY. >> THANK YOU, CHAIR CHAVEZ. LET ME MOVE THE MIC BACK. OKAY. I DID HAVE A COUPLE QUESTIONS. ALSO, THANK YOU, FOR BRINGING
THIS PRESENTATION FORWARD. IT'S BEEN A MINUTE FOR US TO FINALLY GET IT, AND I KNOW THIS IS SOMETHING THAT RESIDENTS HAVE BEEN REALLY EXCITED ABOUT IN TERMS OF SEEING THE CITY CONTINUE TO MOVE ON THIS WOR AROUND CARBON EMISSION REDUCTIONS.
AND KNOWING THAT IT'S NOT ONLY A HIGH PRIORITY FOR THEM, BUT ALSO REFLECTED IN THE CLIMATE EQUITY PLANHAT COUNCIL PASSED LAST YEAR, WHICH SET SEVERAL ROBUST ALS AROUND HOW WE CAN BECOME A CARBON-FREE OR CARBON NEUTRAL
CITY WITHIN THE NEXT 10 YEARS. WE'RE ALREADY IN THAT FACE, BUT OF COURSE, IMPLEMENTING PCAR FEES ON CARBON DIOXIDE WAS IDENTIFIED AS A STRATEGY, SO REALLY EXCITED TO HAVE BEEN PART OF THIS WORK FOR OVER THREE YEARS OF WORKING WITH STAFF TO FIRE OUT HOW WE CAN IMPLEMENT
THIS IN DOING EXTENSIVE OVERSIGHT IN ORDER FOR US TO GET TO THIS POINT WHERE WE WILL ACTUALLY BE REDUCING CARBON EMISSIONS. HOPEFULLY STARTING THIS JULY OF THIS YEAR.
AND I WOULD SAY BASED OFF OF MY EXPERIENCE, I THINK BECAUSE OF THAT DEDICATED COUNCIL OVERSIGHT, WE WOULD NOT HAVE GOTTEN TO THIS PA. AND I WANT TO SAY THANK YOU TO MY COLLEAGUES WHO HAVE ALSO SUPPORTED THIS WORK. BUT THAT SAID, I AM ALSO GLAD TO
HEAR THAT STAFF IS GOING TO BE DOING CONTRACT WITH THE EXTERNAL CONSULTANT NAMED BRAUN. IN ORDER TO CREATE A SUCCESSFUL PROGRAM GOING INTO 2026, AND OF COURSE W THE GOAL OF DOING CARBON EMISSIONS REDUCTION WORK AND TO MAKE SURE THAT POUTER,
OF COURSE, ARE PAYING FOR THAT WORK INSTEAD OF SEEING THAT BE PASSED ONTO TAXPAYERS. AND I THINK THAT IS SOMETHING THAT IS SOMETHING WE HAVE TO CONSIDER AROUND FUNDING OUR
CLIMATE AND RESILIENCY WORK UNDER THE NATIONAL CLIMATE. AND I DO HAVE AN EMAIL FROM MARCH 2023 WHERE I KNOW HEALTH LEADERSHIP AT THE ME NOTED THEY WERE CONSULTING WITH
ANOTHER CONTRACTOR CALLED ELEVATE TO DO SOMEWHAT SMIM WORK, BUT I DON'T THINK THERE WAS EVER A REPORT SHARED OR DEFINITELY NOT IN THE LIMS FILE FROM THE OUTCOMESER TO FINDINGS FROM THAT. I DID WANT TO SEE IF STAFF, YOU ALL COULD UPLOAD THE FINDINGS
FROM THAT CONSULTANT REPORT FROM ELEVATE BAUSE I THINK THERE MIGHT BE SOME OVERLAP OR IF BRAUN WOULD BE TAKING INTO CONSIDERATION SOME OF THE FINDINGS THAT WAS ALSO MAD IN THAT PREVIOUS CONTRACT AND CONSULTANT REPORT. >> CHAIR CHAVEZ AND COUNCIL
MEMBER WONSLEY, I DIDN'T WORK DIRECTLY ON THAT RERT, BUT I CAN DEFINITELY CHECK BACK AND MAKE SURE THAT ANY REPORTS THAT LIMS. >> AWESOME. AND I WILL MAKE SURE TO WORK WITH THE CLERKS TO MAKE SURE YOU RECEIVE THAT EMAIL, AND THAT IS
ALSO FORWARDED TO LIMS SO THAT EVERYONE IS ON THE SAME PAGE. ALSO, JUST GOING ONTO YOUR LAST SLIDE AROUND JUST NEXT STEPS, TOO. JUST MAKING SURE THERE IS A SMOOTH PCEDURAL PROCESS GOING FORWARD. THAT'S CLEAR FOR EVERYONE.
I DO KNOW WITH THE PCAR ORDINANCE FOR 2025, WE DID SET AN IMPLEMENTATION DATE FOR JULY 1 THAT WAS BASED ON THE JOINT STAFF REPORT THAT WAS CO-DEVELOPED WITH OUR POLICY AND RESEARCH DIVISION IN THE HLTH DEPARTMENT THAT WAS PRESENTED TO
US LAST YEAR. NOW THAT Y ALL ARE PRESENTING A DIFFERENT NUMBER, I WANTED TO GET CLARITY ON HOW YOU ARE PLANNING TO APPROACH THE PROCEDURAL NEXT STEPS IN ORDER TO ADDRESS THAT 2025 FEE
SCHEDULE. >> YES, CHAIR CHAVEZ AND COUNCIL MEMBER WONSLEY. WE ARE MOVING FORWARD WITH THE 2025 FEE SO THAT IT IS ON TIM AND READY TO BE BILLED OUT ON JULY 1. SO WE ARE UPDATING THE ORDINANCE. WE'LL BE BACK BEFORE THE
BUSINESS COMMITTEE TO UPDATE THAT FEE. WE ARE PREPARED TO ENTER THE FEE BY THE MAY 15 DEADLINE INTO ELMS, WHICH IS THE DEADLINE FOR US TO ENTER IT INTO THE SYSTEM IN ORDER FOR THE BUILDING TO BE ABLE TO GO OUT BY JULY 1. >> AND THEN WANTED TO GET
CLARITY, TOO, ON JUST THE PRESENTATION PIECE. I'M GOING TO SLIDE NUMBER THREE. I DID WANT TO GET CLARITY ON THE INDUSTRIAL OUTREACH SPECIALIST. I'M THINKING OF THE COST BECAUSE I KNOW IN THAT JOINT STAFF
REPORT, ONE THING THA THE L.T.E. IS CHARGED WITH DOING IS ALSO SUPPORTING THE MITIGATION EFFORTS WITH THE POLLUTERS THAT ARE GOING TO BE ASSESSED THESE FEES, SO WILL THIS F.T.E. ALSO BE DOING THAT BUT FOR A SHORTER PERIOD OF TIME FROM SEPTEER THROUGH THE END OF THE YEAR?
>> YEAH, CHA CHAVEZ, COUNCIL MEMBER WONSLEY, THAT IS WHY YOU SEE A LESSER AMOUNT HERE. BECAUSE WITH THE ANTICIPATED START DATE OF SEPTEMBER 1, IT IS THE ESTIMATED COST OF THAT POSITION JUST FOR THE REMAINDER OF 2025. >> OKAY. >> AND GOING TO SLIDE FOUR, I DID WANT TO GET A LITTLE BIT
MORE CLARITY OF HOW THE CO2 AMOUNTS OR INPUT AMOUNT WAS ASSESSED. ALSO CONSIDERING SINCE THE BRAUN STUDY WILLE DOING THAT, UPDATING AND REVIEWING OF THE CO2 OR CARBON DIOXIDE FIGURES, SO JUST WANT TO GET A SENSE OF,
YES, HOW THIS WAS ASSESSED. >> THANK YOU. CHAIR CHAVEZ AND COUNCIL MEMBER WONSLEY, THIS NUMBER, THE 3,210 TONS, THESERE -- THIS IS THE AMOUNT FROM THE EMISSIONS DATA FROM THE YEAR 2022.
SO THE MINNESOTA POLLUTION CONTROL AGENCY AND THE EMISSIONS DATA AFTER IT GOES THROUGH THE NAL REVIEW PROCESSES AND BECOMES FINALIZED IS ABOUT TWO YEARS BEHIND WHERE WE'RE AT. SO WHEN WE BUILD ON JANUARY 1 FOR THE REST OF THE PCAR FEES,
WE WERE USING EMISSIONSATA FROM 2022 SO BECAUSE THIS IS STILL 2025 WE WILL BE USING THE 2022 EMISSIONS DATA. AND THIS AMOUNT, AS I MENTION, IS ALL OF THE FACILITIES IN THE CITY OF MINNEAPOLIS THAT HOLD AN
AIR EMISSIONS PERMIT ANDRE REQUIRED TO REPORT THEIR COMBUSTIBLE FUEL USE FOR WHICH GREENHOUSEAS EMISSIONS ARE CALCULATED AND THE COMBUSTIBLE FUEL USE DOES NOT INCLUDE FLS COVERED UNDER THE FRANCHISE FEE. THIS NUMBER IS A BIT OF A MOVING
TARGET BECAUSE YEAR TO YEAR THE EMISSIONS CHANGE. SOMETIMES FACILITIES CLOSE AND IS POSSIBLE THAT NEW FACILITY WIS OPEN AND SOME YEARS THERE IS HIGHER EMISSIONS THAN OTHERS. FOR EXAMPLE, THE YEAR 2021, THERE WAS SOME WEATHER EVENTS THAT CREATEDIGH EMISSIONS IN THIS CATEGORY.
SO IF YOU WERE LOOKING BACK AT THE 2021 DATA, YOU WOULD SEE MUCH HIGHER EMISSIONS AMOUNT. BUT THIS TAKES INTO ACCOUNT ALL THE FACILITIES AND ALL THE FEE, ALL THE TONS OF CO2 THAT ARE
ELIGIBLE FOR THIS FEE. >> THIS IS INCLUSIVE OF THE 36 THAT'S ALREADY ON THE PCAR, ON THE REGISTRY THEN. >> THAT'S CORRECT. IT MIGHT BE A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT BECAUSE SOME OF THOSE FACILITIES HAVE SINCE CLOSED. AND SO THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO
BE BILLED. >> OH. DO WE KNOW RIGHT OFF THE BAT HOW MANY OF THE 36 HAVE CLOSED? >> CHAIR CHAVEZ AND COUNCIL MEMBER WONSLEY, IELIEVE THREE HAVE CLOSED IN THE PAST YEAR. SMITH FOUNDRY, AND PROSPECT FOUNDRY. >> OKAY. >> ALL RIGHT. GOOD TO KNOW.
YEAH, THOSE ARE THE QUESTIONS THAT I HAVE. THANK YOU. >> NEXT UP WE HAVE COUNCIL MEMBER PALMISANO. >> THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR. THANK YOU FOR THIS PRESENTATION. OF COURSE, MY FIRST QSTION WAS ONE THAT COUNCIL MEMBER WONSLEY ASKED ABOUT WHEN THIS WILL BE APPLIED. IT WILL BE READYOR JULY 1.
AND THAT'S GREAT. THE REASON THAT THIS STAFF COMPONENT IS ONLY ABOUT $50,000 IS BECAUSE IT'S A PARTIAL YEAR? >> CHAIR CHAVEZ, COUNCIL MEMBER PALMISANO, THAT IS CORRECT. WE ANTICIPATE THE HIRING OF THIS INDUSTRIAL OUTREACH SPECIALIST.
WE ANTICIPATE THEY WILL BEGIN AROUND SEPTEMBER 1. >> AND SO THEN WE CAN ASSUME THAT IN 2026 THAT STAFF POSITION REQUIREMENT WILL BE MUCH BIGGER BECAUSE IT WILL BE A FULL YEAR. >> CORRECT. >> GOT IT. D THAT WON'T BE OFFSET BY LESS
STUDY FROM A CONTRACTOR? WILL WE STILL NEED TO DO STUDY FROM BRAUN OR SOMEBODY ELSE. >> THE FEE STUDY WILL CONCLUDE IN 2025 SO THERE ARE NO ANTICIPATEDOSTS FOR A FEE
STUDY IN THE YEAR 2026. I SEE. WHAT MITIGATION FEES DO YOU ANTICIPATE IN 2026, LIKE IN TOTAL? DO WE KNOW YET? >> CHAIR CHAVEZ AND KOUN PALMISANO, WE DO NOT HAVE A
DOLLAR FEE READY YET, IF THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE ASKING. WE WILL IN AUGUST, THOUGH. >> THANK YOU. >>HANK YOU. >> NEXT UP, COUNCIL MEMBER RAINVILLE. >> THANK YOU. SO EXCELLENT PRESENTATION. I DO HAVE QUESTION, BUT FIRST, I SEE THE MANAGER KELLY MILLMAN IN THE AUDIENCE, AND I WANT TO
THANK YOU FORLWAYS HAVING YOUR STAFF AVAILABLE WHEN WE HAVE ISSUES WHETHER IT'S ODORS, NOISE, YOU HAVE BEEN GREAT, YOU AND YOUR STAFF, SO THANK YOU. THE QUESTION I DO HAVE ON THIS PRESENTATION IS YOU TALKED ABOUT DIESEL USE. AND I HOW TRICKY THAT WAS TO
MONITOR. IS THAT BECAUSE IIS USUALLY USED IN THE COLDER WEATHER TO SUPPLEMENT HEAT? >> CHAIR CHAVEZ, COUNCIL MEMBER RAINVILLE, IT DEPENDS. DIESEL USE CAN BE USED IN BOILERS AND EMERGENCY GENERATORS. SO IT'S A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT
FOR EVERY CILITY, WHICH IS WHY THIS FEE STUDY GETS REALLY COMPLE IT'S A LOT OF DIGGING IN TO THE FACILITIES AND THE PIECES OF EQUIPMENT AND HOW AND WHY AND
WHEN THEY'RE USING THAT FUEL. BUT YES, SO, FOR EXAMPLE, IN 2021, DIESEL WAS IN HHER USE IN PARTICULAR FROM THE ENERGY GENERATORS IN THE CITY OF MINNEAPOLIS BECAUSE OF SOME WEATHER EVENTS THAT REQUIRED THEM TO MOVE TO THE BACKUP
GENERATORS FOR ELECTRICITY GENERATION. ANDED A SUCH TERP BURNING MORE DIESEL FUEL. >> GREAT -- THEY WEREURNING MORE DIESEL FUEL. >> GREAT, THANKS SO MUCH. >> WE HAVE NONE ELSE ON QUEUE.
THANK YOU TO YOU AND STAFF'S WORK ON THIS. WE REALLY APPRECIATE IT. ALL RIGHT, COLLEAGUES. SEEING THERE IS NO FURTHER DISCUSSION ON THIS ITEM, I'LL DIRECT THE CLERK TO RECEIVE AND FILE THAT REPORT. AND SEEING NO FURTHER BUSINESS BEFORE US, I WILL DECLARE THIS MEETING ADJOURNED. [GAVEL]. .
