00:53:19:00	00:53:20:00	BENEFITS OVER THE PAST FOUR
00:53:20:00	00:53:22:00	YEARS WE HAVE SOLD OR
00:53:22:00	00:53:23:00	TRANSFERRED OVER ONE MILLION

01:00:36:00	01:00:40:00	ESPECIALLY HUD GRANTS.
01:00:40:00	01:00:41:00	THE LARGEST SINGLE SOURCE IS

01:01:03:00	01:01:03:00	OF THOSE.
01:01:03:00	01:01:04:00	UNFORTUNATELY THEY CONTINUE TO

01:01:46:00	01:01:47:00	NAME IS ROBERT TURAL.
01:01:47:00	01:01:50:00	I'M THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
01:01:50:00	01:01:51:00	OF THE BOSTON FAIR HOUSING
01:01:51:00	01:01:52:00	COMMISSION AND THANK YOU VERY
01:01:52:00	01:01:53:00	MUCH FOR HAVING APPEAR AT THIS
01:01:53:00	01:01:57:00	HEARING TODAY.
01:01:57:00	01:01:58:00	THE BOSTON FAIR HOUSING
01:01:58:00	01:02:02:00	COMMISSION IS A VERY DIFFERENT
01:02:02:00	01:02:06:00	KIND OF CITY AGENCY THAN YOU'RE
01:02:06:00	01:02:06:00	PROBABLY USED TO INTERVIEWING
01:02:06:00	01:02:10:00	IN BUDGET HEARINGS SUCH AS
01:02:10:00	01:02:10:00	THIS.
01:02:10:00	01:02:13:00	WE ARE AN ENFORCEMENT AGENCY
01:02:13:00	01:02:15:00	AND NOT ONLY ARE WE AN
01:02:15:00	01:02:18:00	ENFORCEMENT AGENCY IN AND
01:02:18:00	01:02:19:00	AROUND FAIR HOUSING AND CIVIL
01:02:19:00	01:02:22:00	RIGHTS, THE VERY EXISTENCE
01:02:22:00	01:02:26:00	OF OUR AGENCY WAS A PRODUCT
01:02:26:00	01:02:28:00	OF THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT IN
01:02:28:00	01:02:29:00	BOSTON.
01:02:29:00	01:02:30:00	AND I JUST WANT TO TAKE JUST
01:02:30:00	01:02:34:00	ONE SECOND TO EXPLAIN WHAT THAT
01:02:34:00	01:02:41:00	MEANS IN THE LATE 70S HUD WAS
01:02:41:00	01:02:44:00	SUED BY THE NAACP FOR THE
01:02:44:00	01:02:44:00	MALDISTRIBUTION OF CHEBEAGUE
01:02:44:00	01:02:48:00	FUNDS THE CITY OF BOSTON AND
01:02:48:00	01:02:52:00	BECAUSE THE CITY OF BOSTON WAS
01:02:52:00	01:02:52:00	RESPONSIBLE FOR THE
01:02:52:00	01:02:55:00	DISTRIBUTION OF THOSE FUNDS,
01:02:55:00	01:02:56:00	THEY WERE PULLED INTO THE
01:02:56:00	01:02:57:00	LAWSUIT.
01:02:57:00	01:03:00:00	I WON'T GO THROUGH ALL THE
01:03:00:00	01:03:01:00	MECHANICS OF THAT LAWSUIT BUT
01:03:01:00	01:03:04:00	ONE OF THE RESULTS THAT THE
01:03:04:00	01:03:08:00	FEDERAL COURT MANDATED WAS THAT
01:03:08:00	01:03:09:00	THE CITY OF BOSTON HAD FOUND
01:03:09:00	01:03:14:00	ITS OWN FAIR HOUSING COMMISSION
01:03:14:00	01:03:15:00	AND SO CITY COUNCILOR BRUCE
01:03:15:00	01:03:19:00	BOLLING FROM DISTRICT SEVEN FOR
01:03:19:00	01:03:23:00	WHOM THE BOWLING BUILDING IS
01:03:23:00	01:03:24:00	NAMED WROTE THE LEGISLATION IN
01:03:24:00	01:03:27:00	NINETEEN EIGHTY TWO WHICH THIS
01:03:27:00	01:03:31:00	BODY PASSED AND IN SUBSEQUENT
01:03:31:00	01:03:32:00	YEARS THERE WERE AMENDMENTS AND
01:03:32:00	01:03:35:00	UPGRADES.
01:03:35:00	01:03:36:00	SO WE TAKE THE WORK OF THE
01:03:36:00	01:03:39:00	COMMISSION VERY, VERY
01:03:39:00	01:03:39:00	SERIOUSLY.
01:03:39:00	01:03:43:00	UNFORTUNATELY HOUSING
01:03:43:00	01:03:44:00	DISCRIMINATION REMAINS A
01:03:44:00	01:03:47:00	SERIOUS PROBLEM IN THE CITY
01:03:47:00	01:03:47:00	OF BOSTON AND UNFORTUNATELY
01:03:47:00	01:03:49:00	THROUGHOUT MOST PARTS OF THE
01:03:49:00	01:03:53:00	COUNTRY WE WERE JUST IN THIS
01:03:53:00	01:03:54:00	CHAMBER TWO MONTHS AGO TALKING
01:03:54:00	01:03:57:00	ABOUT THE ISSUE OF BANK
01:03:57:00	01:04:01:00	DISCRIMINATION IN REDLINING AND
01:04:01:00	01:04:02:00	WHAT THE CITY COUNCIL COULD DO
01:04:02:00	01:04:05:00	ABOUT THAT.
01:04:05:00	01:04:09:00	SO THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM
01:04:09:00	01:04:10:00	ARE PROTECTED CLASSES ARE
01:04:10:00	01:04:10:00	UNFORTUNATELY BEING
01:04:10:00	01:04:13:00	DISCRIMINATED AGAINST EVERY
01:04:13:00	01:04:17:00	SINGLE DAY.
01:04:17:00	01:04:21:00	THE WORK OF THE COMMISSION IS
01:04:21:00	01:04:22:00	BASED ON FIVE PILLARS, FIVE
01:04:22:00	01:04:24:00	SPECIFIC AREAS.
01:04:24:00	01:04:28:00	AND IF YOU LOOK AT ALMOST ANY
01:04:28:00	01:04:29:00	CIVIL RIGHTS ORGANIZATION,
01:04:29:00	01:04:32:00	PUBLIC OR PRIVATE, YOU WILL
01:04:32:00	01:04:36:00	FIND THESE SAME FIVE ASPECTS TO
01:04:36:00	01:04:37:00	THEIR WORK.
01:04:37:00	01:04:40:00	FIRST INVESTIGATIONS AND
01:04:40:00	01:04:44:00	ENFORCEMENT THAT IS THE HEART
01:04:44:00	01:04:45:00	OF WHAT WE DO.
01:04:45:00	01:04:46:00	THAT IS THE ENGINE THAT DRIVES
01:04:46:00	01:04:49:00	OUR WORK FROM INTAKE AND REVIEW
01:04:49:00	01:04:51:00	OF FAIR HOUSING COMPLAINTS
01:04:51:00	01:04:52:00	CONDUCTING FAIR HOUSING

01:05:01:00	01:05:04:00	PROBABLE CAUSE OR PROBABLE
01:05:04:00	01:05:07:00	CAUSE, CONDUCTING APPEAL
01:05:07:00	01:05:08:00	HEARINGS AND WHEN PROBABLE
01:05:08:00	01:05:11:00	CAUSE IS DETERMINED HOLDING AN
01:05:11:00	01:05:12:00	ADMINISTRATIVE HEARING WHICH IS
01:05:12:00	01:05:15:00	SORT OF LIKE OUR VERSION
01:05:15:00	01:05:16:00	OF COURT AND THEN MAKING
01:05:16:00	01:05:19:00	RECOMMENDATIONS TO OUR FULL
01:05:19:00	01:05:19:00	COMMISSION AND ISSUING A
01:05:19:00	01:05:23:00	COMMISSION ORDER TO RECTIFY THE
01:05:23:00	01:05:26:00	SITUATION.
01:05:26:00	01:05:27:00	I'VE I'VE ASKED MY STAFF TO
01:05:27:00	01:05:30:00	TAKE A LOOK AT OUR SALES FORCE
01:05:30:00	01:05:31:00	DATABASE AND IN A DAY OR TWO
01:05:31:00	01:05:34:00	WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A REPORT
01:05:34:00	01:05:36:00	FOR THE CITY COUNCIL ON THE
01:05:36:00	01:05:38:00	DISCRIMINATION THAT HAS
01:05:38:00	01:05:39:00	OCCURRED I WOULD SAY OVER THE
01:05:39:00	01:05:42:00	LAST FOUR OR FIVE YEARS IN THE
01:05:42:00	01:05:43:00	CITY BY CITY COUNCIL DISTRICT
01:05:43:00	01:05:45:00	AND BY NEIGHBORHOOD.
01:05:45:00	01:05:46:00	SO YOU CAN SEE FOR YOURSELF
01:05:46:00	01:05:49:00	THAT THIS IS A CITYWIDE PROBLEM
01:05:49:00	01:05:50:00	AND NO NEIGHBORHOOD IS IMMUNE
01:05:50:00	01:05:53:00	TO IT.
01:05:53:00	01:05:57:00	FAIR HOUSING, EDUCATION,
01:05:57:00	01:05:58:00	OUTREACH.
01:05:58:00	01:06:01:00	WE CONDUCT A SERIES OF FAIR
01:06:01:00	01:06:02:00	HOUSING TRAININGS IN OUR

01:06:29:00	01:06:30:00	AND THAT'S GOING TO BE
01:06:30:00	01:06:34:00	INCREASINGLY IMPORTANT WHEN WE

01:06:53:00	01:06:56:00	OF FAIR HOUSING AND THE MAYOR'S
01:06:56:00	01:07:00:00	EXECUTIVE ORDER TO PROVIDE TO
01:07:00:00	01:07:04:00	PROVIDE STAFF SUPPORT FOR THE
01:07:04:00	01:07:05:00	MONITORING COMMITTEE THAT WILL
01:07:05:00	01:07:08:00	BE COORDINATING MEETINGS WITH
01:07:08:00	01:07:09:00	ALL OF THOSE CITY DEPARTMENTS
01:07:09:00	01:07:11:00	TO SEE IF THEY ARE IN
01:07:11:00	01:07:15:00	COMPLIANCE.
01:07:15:00	01:07:16:00	WE WORK ON THE PASSAGE OF OTHER
01:07:16:00	01:07:18:00	FAIR HOUSING AND CIVIL RIGHTS
01:07:18:00	01:07:18:00	LEGISLATION.
01:07:18:00	01:07:19:00	THERE IS SOME VERY INTERESTING
01:07:19:00	01:07:23:00	CIVIL RIGHTS LEGISLATION
01:07:23:00	01:07:24:00	PENDING AT THE STATE HOUSE
01:07:24:00	01:07:27:00	RIGHT NOW THAT WE WOULD LIKE TO
01:07:27:00	01:07:30:00	SEE PASSED.
01:07:30:00	01:07:31:00	WE'VE ALSO UNDERTAKEN A VERY
01:07:31:00	01:07:34:00	INTERESTING RESEARCH PROJECT
01:07:34:00	01:07:35:00	WITH THE GREATER BOSTON REAL
01:07:35:00	01:07:39:00	ESTATE BOARD IN MY SECOND WEEK
01:07:39:00	01:07:42:00	ON THIS JOB I HAD AN OCCASION
01:07:42:00	01:07:45:00	TO MEET WITH THEIR CEO AND I
01:07:45:00	01:07:46:00	CONVINCED HIM THAT WE SHOULD DO
01:07:46:00	01:07:50:00	A SERIES OF TRAININGS FOR HIS
01:07:50:00	01:07:54:00	MEMBERS ABOUT THE FACT THAT
01:07:54:00	01:07:54:00	HOUSING DISCRIMINATION
01:07:54:00	01:07:57:00	CERTAINLY DOES INJURY TO THE
01:07:57:00	01:07:58:00	PEOPLE WHO SUFFER THAT
01:07:58:00	01:08:01:00	DISCRIMINATION.
01:08:01:00	01:08:02:00	BUT IT'S ALSO COSTING HIS
01:08:02:00	01:08:05:00	MEMBERSHIP MONEY, WHICH IS
01:08:05:00	01:08:05:00	SOMETHING I WOULD THINK THAT
01:08:05:00	01:08:08:00	THEY WOULD BE VERY CONCERNED
01:08:08:00	01:08:09:00	ABOUT THAT THEY ARE IN FACT
01:08:09:00	01:08:12:00	LOSING BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES
01:08:12:00	01:08:13:00	BECAUSE OF THEIR OWN
01:08:13:00	01:08:17:00	DISCRIMINATORY BEHAVIOR.
01:08:17:00	01:08:21:00	WE ARE PURSUING THIS WITH TUFTS
01:08:21:00	01:08:25:00	UNIVERSITY AND WE HOPE TO HAVE
01:08:25:00	01:08:26:00	THAT STUDY IN THE NEXT FEW
01:08:26:00	01:08:28:00	MONTHS.
01:08:28:00	01:08:29:00	COMMISSION INITIATED COMPLAINTS
01:08:29:00	01:08:32:00	WE DON'T EVEN HAVE TO WAIT FOR
01:08:32:00	01:08:32:00	A COMPLAINT FROM AN INDIVIDUAL.
01:08:32:00	01:08:33:00	WE CAN INITIATE A COMPLAINT
01:08:33:00	01:08:36:00	OURSELVES AND WE HAVE DONE SO
01:08:36:00	01:08:39:00	OFTENTIMES BASED ON TESTING AND
01:08:39:00	01:08:44:00	A WORD ABOUT TESTING WE WOULD
01:08:44:00	01:08:44:00	LIKE IN THE NEXT YEAR TO
01:08:44:00	01:08:47:00	INITIATE OUR OWN TESTING
01:08:47:00	01:08:47:00	PROGRAM.
01:08:47:00	01:08:49:00	RIGHT NOW WE HAVE A CONTRACT
01:08:49:00	01:08:52:00	WITH SUFFOLK UNIVERSITY.
01:08:52:00	01:08:52:00	THAT CONTRACT IS COMING TO AN
01:08:52:00	01:08:56:00	END AND WE THINK WOULD BE FAR
01:08:56:00	01:08:57:00	MORE EFFECTIVE AND EFFICIENT TO
01:08:57:00	01:08:59:00	BRING OUR TESTING CAPABILITY
01:08:59:00	01:09:03:00	IN-HOUSE.
01:09:03:00	01:09:06:00	THE BUDGET RECOMMENDATION THAT
01:09:06:00	01:09:07:00	HAS COME DOWN MIGHT SEEM A
01:09:07:00	01:09:08:00	LITTLE ODD.
01:09:08:00	01:09:10:00	IT'S ABOUT FOUR HUNDRED AND
01:09:10:00	01:09:13:00	SIXTY THOUSAND DOLLARS THAT
01:09:13:00	01:09:14:00	COVERS THREE STAFF PEOPLE AND
01:09:14:00	01:09:18:00	STIPENDS FOR OUR FIVE
01:09:18:00	01:09:22:00	COMMISSIONERS.
01:09:22:00	01:09:22:00	THERE HAS BEEN SOME DISCUSSION
01:09:22:00	01:09:25:00	ABOUT WHY THAT NUMBER WAS
01:09:25:00	01:09:26:00	REDUCED.
01:09:26:00	01:09:27:00	WE CAN GET INTO THAT LATER ON
01:09:27:00	01:09:30:00	IN THE COURSE OF THE HEARING
01:09:30:00	01:09:34:00	BUT A LOT OF OUR FUNDING IN
01:09:34:00	01:09:35:00	FACT COMES BY WAY OF CBG.
01:09:35:00	01:09:40:00	THANK CHIEF DYLAN AGAIN.
01:09:40:00	01:09:44:00	THAT WAS ALSO PART OF THE THE
01:09:44:00	01:09:45:00	SAME LEGAL FRAMEWORK THAT
01:09:45:00	01:09:47:00	CREATED THE COMMISSION IN THE
01:09:47:00	01:09:48:00	EARLY EIGHTIES BY WAY OF THE
01:09:48:00	01:09:51:00	SKINNER DECISION AND ALSO WE
01:09:51:00	01:09:52:00	GET FAPE FUNDING.
01:09:52:00	01:09:55:00	WE ARE SUBSTANTIALLY EQUIVALENT
01:09:55:00	01:09:56:00	TO HUD WHICH MEANS WE CAN
01:09:56:00	01:09:59:00	PROVIDE THE SAME LEGAL
01:09:59:00	01:10:00:00	PROTECTIONS THAT THE FEDERAL
01:10:00:00	01:10:03:00	GOVERNMENT DOES AND BECAUSE
01:10:03:00	01:10:04:00	THEY CAN'T HANDLE THE IMMENSITY
01:10:04:00	01:10:06:00	OF THE NUMBER OF CASES THAT
01:10:06:00	01:10:10:00	WOULD COME THEIR WAY, THEY PAY
01:10:10:00	01:10:10:00	GROUPS LIKE OURSELVES AND
01:10:10:00	01:10:14:00	MEHCAD TO INVESTIGATE CASES FOR
01:10:14:00	01:10:18:00	THEM AND THEY PAY US FOR.
01:10:18:00	01:10:19:00	SO THE DISCUSSION THAT WE'RE
01:10:19:00	01:10:20:00	HAVING NOW WITH THE BUDGET
01:10:20:00	01:10:22:00	OFFICE AND WITH CLASSIFICATION
01:10:22:00	01:10:26:00	AND COMPENSATION IS HOW TO SORT
01:10:26:00	01:10:29:00	OF MESH ALL OF THESE RESOURCES
01:10:29:00	01:10:30:00	AND GET THE RESULTS THAT WE AT
01:10:30:00	01:10:33:00	THE COMMISSION THINK WILL BE
01:10:33:00	01:10:37:00	NECESSARY FOR US TO CARRY OUT
01:10:37:00	01:10:38:00	OUR MANDATE.
01:10:38:00	01:10:39:00	BUT WE CAN GET INTO MORE
01:10:39:00	01:10:40:00	DETAILS AS WE GO FORWARD.
01:10:40:00	01:10:41:00	THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
01:10:41:00	01:10:44:00	THANK YOU, MR CHAIRMAN.
01:10:44:00	01:10:45:00	THANK YOU, COMMISSIONER.
01:10:45:00	01:10:52:00	I THINK I'LL ASK MY QUESTIONS
01:10:52:00	01:10:55:00	FIRST.
01:10:55:00	01:10:59:00	SO TODAY WHY GPU WILL BE

01:11:07:00	01:11:08:00	THEIR NEEDS THAT GO BEYOND

01:12:42:00	01:12:45:00	THEY HAVE FOR YOU IS THEY WOULD

01:12:58:00	01:13:01:00	INCLUSIONARY DEVELOPMENT FUND
01:13:01:00	01:13:01:00	AND EXTERNAL FUNDS.
01:13:01:00	01:13:05:00	IF YOU CAN DO THAT IN WRITING
01:13:05:00	01:13:06:00	THAT WOULD APPRECIATE IT IN

01:13:09:00	01:13:13:00	WONDER IF YOU I'M NOT SURE IF
01:13:13:00	01:13:16:00	YOU'RE ABLE TO ANSWER THIS
01:13:16:00	01:13:18:00	TODAY BUT IN TERMS OF IDP, HOW
01:13:18:00	01:13:20:00	HAS IT HOW HAS IT CONTRIBUTED
01:13:20:00	01:13:21:00	AND HAVE YOU LOOK AT THE DATA
01:13:21:00	01:13:24:00	TO HOW HAS IT CONTRIBUTED TO
01:13:24:00	01:13:25:00	AFFORDABLE CONTRIBUTION TO
01:13:25:00	01:13:28:00	INCOME RESTRICTED HOUSING OR

01:13:36:00	01:13:36:00	WHAT HE HAS DONE?
01:13:36:00	01:13:37:00	SURE.
01:13:37:00	01:13:40:00	SO IT'S A GREAT QUESTION AND WE
01:13:40:00	01:13:41:00	HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH THE
01:13:41:00	01:13:44:00	COALITION NOW OVER THE LAST
01:13:44:00	01:13:45:00	YEAR OR SO ON POTENTIAL CHANGES
01:13:45:00	01:13:48:00	AND MET WITH THEM LAST WEEK.
01:13:48:00	01:13:49:00	SO AND I I WILL GET THIS
01:13:49:00	01:13:52:00	INFORMATION TO YOU IN DETAIL
01:13:52:00	01:13:53:00	BECAUSE WE HAVE IT I DIDN'T
01:13:53:00	01:13:54:00	BRING IT TODAY BECAUSE I DIDN'T
01:13:54:00	01:13:55:00	KNOW THAT WE WERE GOING TO
01:13:55:00	01:13:56:00	DISCUSS IT BUT IT'S IDP HAS
01:13:56:00	01:13:59:00	BEEN AN INVALUABLE PROGRAM.
01:13:59:00	01:14:00:00	I MEAN IT'S CREATED OVER 4000
01:14:00:00	01:14:03:00	UNITS OF HOUSING WITHOUT USING
01:14:03:00	01:14:07:00	TAXPAYER RESOURCES.
01:14:07:00	01:14:08:00	WE HAVE BEEN WORKING FOR THE
01:14:08:00	01:14:11:00	LAST YEAR OR SO TO LOOK AT HOW
01:14:11:00	01:14:12:00	WE COULD UPDATE THE POLICY AND
01:14:12:00	01:14:15:00	IN PART THERE'S THERE'S BEEN A
01:14:15:00	01:14:18:00	LOT OF CONVERSATION THAT IT'S
01:14:18:00	01:14:19:00	NOT SERVING OUR LOWEST INCOME
01:14:19:00	01:14:22:00	POPULATIONS OR POPULATIONS
01:14:22:00	01:14:23:00	OF COLOR THAT THE WAY THAT IT
01:14:23:00	01:14:23:00	SHOULD.
01:14:23:00	01:14:26:00	SO WE HAVE BEEN LOOKING AT WAYS
01:14:26:00	01:14:27:00	TO INCREASE, INCREASE OR LOWER
01:14:27:00	01:14:31:00	THE LOWER THE INCOMES FOR THE
01:14:31:00	01:14:34:00	PARTICULAR UNITS BEING
01:14:34:00	01:14:34:00	CREATED .
01:14:34:00	01:14:35:00	WE YOU'RE RIGHT.
01:14:35:00	01:14:36:00	YOU YOU STAYED THE POLICY THE
01:14:36:00	01:14:38:00	WAY THAT THAT WE'RE WE'RE
01:14:38:00	01:14:39:00	THINKING ABOUT IT NOW THAT THE
01:14:39:00	01:14:42:00	NEXT STEP IN THIS WILL WE ARE
01:14:42:00	01:14:43:00	HAVING A PUBLIC HEARING NEXT
01:14:43:00	01:14:46:00	WEEK THEN THE PROPOSED POLICY
01:14:46:00	01:14:46:00	WILL GO TO THE PPTA BOARD AND
01:14:46:00	01:14:50:00	THEN AS AS AS YOU MAY KNOW, IT
01:14:50:00	01:14:51:00	JUST COMES TO THE CITY
01:14:51:00	01:14:52:00	COUNCIL FOR DEBATE.
01:14:52:00	01:14:53:00	SO THE WAY THAT WE APPROACHED
01:14:53:00	01:14:57:00	IS HOW CAN WE LOWER THE AMYAS?
01:14:57:00	01:14:58:00	HOW CAN WE LOWER THE INCOMES
01:14:58:00	01:14:59:00	AND STILL ENSURE THAT
01:14:59:00	01:15:02:00	PRODUCTION CAN MOVE FORWARD IN
01:15:02:00	01:15:02:00	THE CITY OF BOSTON?
01:15:02:00	01:15:04:00	AND SO THAT'S WHAT WE'VE ON.
01:15:04:00	01:15:05:00	WE REALLY HAVE TRIED TO LOOK AT
01:15:05:00	01:15:08:00	THE NUMBERS AND AND SAY HOW
01:15:08:00	01:15:09:00	MUCH CAN WE ASK DEVELOPERS TO
01:15:09:00	01:15:10:00	DO BEFORE MARKET RATE
01:15:10:00	01:15:12:00	DEVELOPMENT BECOMES INFEASIBLE
01:15:12:00	01:15:13:00	BUT FOCUSED ON LOWERING THE
01:15:13:00	01:15:16:00	ARMIES.
01:15:16:00	01:15:17:00	AND TO BOB'S POINT WE KNOW THAT
01:15:17:00	01:15:21:00	WE HAVE HEARD THAT AND I THINK
01:15:21:00	01:15:21:00	BOB'S RESEARCH IN HIS DIVISION
01:15:21:00	01:15:24:00	HAS HAS FOUND THIS OUT THAT IT
01:15:24:00	01:15:25:00	HAS BEEN HARD FOR SECTION EIGHT

01:15:41:00	01:15:42:00	PROPOSAL BUT WE REALLY LOOK
01:15:42:00	01:15:51:00	FORWARD TO TO THE DEBATE AND

01:16:34:00	01:16:35:00	COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS WOULD BE
01:16:35:00	01:16:38:00	REQUIRED TO PAY BY 50 PERCENT
01:16:38:00	01:16:42:00	AND LOWERED THE PROJECT'S ARE

01:16:54:00	01:16:57:00	NUMBERS THAT WE THOUGHT WOULD
01:16:57:00	01:16:58:00	KEEP COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT
01:16:58:00	01:17:02:00	FEASIBLE BUT AT THE SAME TIME

01:20:35:00	01:20:40:00	AND LOOKING AT OVERALL AND I
01:20:40:00	01:20:41:00	KNOW YOU'VE PROBABLY DONE AN
01:20:41:00	01:20:44:00	ASSESSMENT OVER THIS AS
01:20:44:00	01:20:47:00	PRAGMATIC THINKER AS YOU ARE I
01:20:47:00	01:20:48:00	CAN IMAGINE THAT YOU'VE
01:20:48:00	01:20:49:00	PROBABLY MAPPED US OUT WHEN YOU
01:20:49:00	01:20:51:00	THINK ABOUT HOUSING AFFORDABLE
01:20:51:00	01:20:55:00	HOUSING INCLUSION OR
01:20:55:00	01:20:56:00	DEVELOPMENT AND YOU LOOK AT
01:20:56:00	01:20:59:00	YOUR STOCK AND YOU SAY THIS
01:20:59:00	01:21:03:00	INVENTORY SPECIFICALLY IMPACTS
01:21:03:00	01:21:06:00	THIS POPULATION AND OUT OF THIS
01:21:06:00	01:21:07:00	IT WILL IMPACT AS POPULATION
01:21:07:00	01:21:10:00	AND THEN I HAVE THIS MUCH TO GO
01:21:10:00	01:21:10:00	.
01:21:10:00	01:21:14:00	YOU LOOK AT THE AVERAGE INCOME
01:21:14:00	01:21:15:00	OR THE AMAI FOR CERTAIN AREAS
01:21:15:00	01:21:18:00	OF POPULATION SO YOU'RE TRYING
01:21:18:00	01:21:19:00	TO ADDRESS WOULD YOU SAY THAT
01:21:19:00	01:21:22:00	WE'RE DEVELOPING LESS THAN
01:21:22:00	01:21:23:00	AFFORDABLE HOUSING MORE THAN WE
01:21:23:00	01:21:26:00	ARE AFFORDABLE HOUSING?
01:21:26:00	01:21:30:00	IT'S IT'S A REALLY VERY FAIR
01:21:30:00	01:21:31:00	QUESTION ABOUT HOW DO WE HOW DO
01:21:31:00	01:21:34:00	WE USE OUR RESOURCES TO ADDRESS
01:21:34:00	01:21:34:00	OUR HOUSING NEEDS?
01:21:34:00	01:21:35:00	RIGHT.
01:21:35:00	01:21:38:00	AND WE THINK ABOUT I THINK
01:21:38:00	01:21:38:00	ABOUT LIKE 24/7 ARE WE SPENDING
01:21:38:00	01:21:41:00	OUR MONEY CORRECTLY?
01:21:41:00	01:21:42:00	ARE WE ASKING DEVELOPERS TO DO
01:21:42:00	01:21:43:00	THE RIGHT THING?
01:21:43:00	01:21:46:00	AND IT'S AS IT'S A REALLY
01:21:46:00	01:21:46:00	COMPLICATED PICTURE BECAUSE
01:21:46:00	01:21:49:00	IT'S HARD TO SAY FOR ME.
01:21:49:00	01:21:52:00	IT'S HARD TO SAY THAT ONE ONE
01:21:52:00	01:21:53:00	POPULATION SET ONE COHORT IN
01:21:53:00	01:21:57:00	BOSTON SHOULD RECEIVE THIS MUCH
01:21:57:00	01:22:01:00	RESOURCE, YOU KNOW, BUT YOU
01:22:01:00	01:22:02:00	HAVE TO MAKE THOSE THOSE CALLS
01:22:02:00	01:22:04:00	AND DETERMINATIONS.
01:22:04:00	01:22:06:00	BUT I KNOW THAT SO MANY PEOPLE
01:22:06:00	01:22:06:00	WANT TO BUY IN BOSTON THEIR
01:22:06:00	01:22:09:00	INCOMES ARE SLIGHTLY HIGHER.
01:22:09:00	01:22:09:00	RIGHT.
01:22:09:00	01:22:10:00	SO WE REALLY WANT TO MAKE SURE
01:22:10:00	01:22:11:00	WE'RE INVESTING IN
01:22:11:00	01:22:13:00	HOMEOWNERSHIP AT THE SAME TIME
01:22:13:00	01:22:14:00	WE KNOW WE HAVE HOMELESS
01:22:14:00	01:22:16:00	POPULATIONS THAT HAVE NO INCOME
01:22:16:00	01:22:17:00	AND WE KNOW THAT WE'VE GOT TO
01:22:17:00	01:22:18:00	BUILD PERMANENT SUPPORTIVE
01:22:18:00	01:22:18:00	HOUSING.
01:22:18:00	01:22:21:00	BUT I DO THINK WHEN WE LOOK AT
01:22:21:00	01:22:25:00	OUR RENTAL HOUSING STOCK AND
01:22:25:00	01:22:26:00	OVER THE YEARS WE'VE BEEN A LOT
01:22:26:00	01:22:28:00	OF IT HAS BEEN FOCUSED ON 70
01:22:28:00	01:22:29:00	PERCENT AM I AN IDP AND A LOT
01:22:29:00	01:22:32:00	OF OUR RENTAL NEW PRODUCTION IN
01:22:32:00	01:22:36:00	RENTAL HOUSING WITH DONE MOSTLY
01:22:36:00	01:22:36:00	BY NON-PROFITS BUT SOME FOR
01:22:36:00	01:22:37:00	PROFITS.
01:22:37:00	01:22:38:00	WE HAVE REALLY FOCUSED ON A TAX
01:22:38:00	01:22:40:00	CREDIT OF 60 PERCENT.
01:22:40:00	01:22:41:00	AM I RIGHT?
01:22:41:00	01:22:42:00	THAT'S WHAT THE PROGRAM HAS
01:22:42:00	01:22:44:00	REQUIRED US TO DO.
01:22:44:00	01:22:45:00	WE'VE SAID THAT WE'RE NOT
01:22:45:00	01:22:48:00	BUILDING ENOUGH FOR OUR LOWER
01:22:48:00	01:22:48:00	INCOME RENTERS.
01:22:48:00	01:22:49:00	WE KNOW THAT.
01:22:49:00	01:22:52:00	SO THROUGH OUR FUNDING ROUNDS
01:22:52:00	01:22:53:00	WE'VE REALLY TRIED TO GIVE
01:22:53:00	01:22:56:00	EXTRA POINTS AND REALLY WORK
01:22:56:00	01:22:57:00	WITH DEVELOPERS TO GET THE
01:22:57:00	01:23:00:00	ARMIES DOWN TO 30 40, 50
01:23:00:00	01:23:00:00	PERCENT.
01:23:00:00	01:23:01:00	WE OF COURSE AT SOME 60S TOO.
01:23:01:00	01:23:03:00	WE DO THAT BY INCOME AVERAGING.
01:23:03:00	01:23:04:00	SO WE REALLY HAVE BEEN VERY
01:23:04:00	01:23:05:00	INTENTIONAL LOOKING AT LOOKING
01:23:05:00	01:23:08:00	AT THAT ISSUE AND I THINK THE
01:23:08:00	01:23:11:00	CHANGES THE PROPOSED CHANGES TO
01:23:11:00	01:23:12:00	INCLUSIONARY DEVELOPMENT WE
01:23:12:00	01:23:12:00	REALLY HAVE LISTENED TO THE
01:23:12:00	01:23:16:00	ADVOCATES WHO HAVE WANTED LOWER
01:23:16:00	01:23:20:00	AMYAS AND IF WE LOOK AT THE 50
01:23:20:00	01:23:20:00	PERCENT AND 60 PERCENT OF AMIES
01:23:20:00	01:23:23:00	THAT ARE BEING PROPOSED, THAT
01:23:23:00	01:23:24:00	IS AN AVERAGE.
01:23:24:00	01:23:27:00	SO WE'RE WE'RE LOOKING AT A
01:23:27:00	01:23:28:00	RANGE SO WITH IDP WHERE IF ONE
01:23:28:00	01:23:32:00	THE ONE DOOR A ALLOWS AN
01:23:32:00	01:23:33:00	AVERAGE OF 60 WE'RE LOOKING FOR
01:23:33:00	01:23:36:00	INCOME'S OF 50, 60, 70 OR 40,
01:23:36:00	01:23:38:00	50, 60, 70, 80.
01:23:38:00	01:23:39:00	SO WE'RE REALLY LOOKING FOR A
01:23:39:00	01:23:40:00	RANGE OF INCOMES.
01:23:40:00	01:23:43:00	SO ALL THAT TO SAY IS I THINK
01:23:43:00	01:23:44:00	OVER THE LAST TWO YEARS WE
01:23:44:00	01:23:46:00	REALLY HAVE TRIED TO THINK
01:23:46:00	01:23:47:00	ABOUT HOW TO SERVE OUR LOWER
01:23:47:00	01:23:48:00	INCOME POPULATIONS THAT DON'T
01:23:48:00	01:23:50:00	HAVE A VOUCHER OR THAT AREN'T
01:23:50:00	01:23:51:00	LIVING IN A UNIT WITH THE
01:23:51:00	01:23:55:00	PROJECT BASED A PROJECT BASED
01:23:55:00	01:23:55:00	RESOURCE AGAINST IT.
01:23:55:00	01:23:58:00	SO IT'S IT'S VERY, VERY HARD
01:23:58:00	01:23:59:00	AND TO WELCOME PEOPLE'S INPUT
01:23:59:00	01:24:00:00	ON THIS TODAY, YOU KNOW, WE
01:24:00:00	01:24:02:00	NEED TO BUILD FOR OUR MIDDLE
01:24:02:00	01:24:02:00	CLASS.
01:24:02:00	01:24:03:00	WE NEED TO HELP PEOPLE BUY
01:24:03:00	01:24:03:00	HOMES.
01:24:03:00	01:24:05:00	WE NEED TO HOUSE OUR HOMELESS.
01:24:05:00	01:24:06:00	BUT WE DO REALLY NEED TO BE
01:24:06:00	01:24:07:00	MUCH MORE INTENTIONAL THAT A
01:24:07:00	01:24:10:00	LOT OF OUR RENTERS AREN'T AT 60
01:24:10:00	01:24:10:00	PERCENT AM I?
01:24:10:00	01:24:11:00	THEY ARE A LOWER INCOME
01:24:11:00	01:24:11:00	POPULATION.
01:24:11:00	01:24:12:00	THERE ARE LOWER INCOME
01:24:12:00	01:24:15:00	POPULATION.
01:24:15:00	01:24:17:00	I KNOW THAT YOU'VE HEARD ME SAY
01:24:17:00	01:24:17:00	THIS BEFORE AND WILL BE MY
01:24:17:00	01:24:19:00	FINAL QUESTION TO MY
01:24:19:00	01:24:20:00	COLLEAGUES.
01:24:20:00	01:24:21:00	I KNOW THAT YOU'VE HEARD ME SAY
01:24:21:00	01:24:23:00	THIS BEFORE.
01:24:23:00	01:24:24:00	THE AVERAGE INCOME IN ROXBURY
01:24:24:00	01:24:27:00	IS THIRTY FOUR THOUSAND AND SO
01:24:27:00	01:24:31:00	WHEN YOU LOOK AT THAT THE MYS
01:24:31:00	01:24:32:00	OBVIOUSLY IS ALSO LOW 40 AND
01:24:32:00	01:24:32:00	UNDER.
01:24:32:00	01:24:36:00	SO IF WE LOOK AT IF WE LOOK AT
01:24:36:00	01:24:39:00	THAT AND WE SAY YOU DO THE ONE
01:24:39:00	01:24:40:00	THIRD, ONE THIRD, ONE THIRD AND

01:25:10:00	01:25:10:00	INTIMATELY INVOLVED AND SAID IT
01:25:10:00	01:25:13:00	WAS A THIRD LOW LIKE PROBABLY
01:25:13:00	01:25:14:00	THIRTY THIRTY OR FORTY PERCENT
01:25:14:00	01:25:15:00	TO THIRD MIDDLE AND THEN A
01:25:15:00	01:25:18:00	THIRD MARKET THE PROJECTS HAD
01:25:18:00	01:25:19:00	BEEN DONE A NEWBIE NUBIAN HAVE
01:25:19:00	01:25:22:00	REALLY TAKEN DIFFERENT
01:25:22:00	01:25:22:00	DIFFERENT SHAPES AND FORMS
01:25:22:00	01:25:25:00	DEPENDING ON THE TYPE
01:25:25:00	01:25:26:00	OF HOUSING THAT IT IS.
01:25:26:00	01:25:27:00	SOME OF THE THIRD HAS BEEN

01:26:11:00	01:26:12:00	POPPY AT MUCH LOWER INCOME
01:26:12:00	01:26:15:00	POPULATIONS.
01:26:15:00	01:26:16:00	IT'S JUST VERY HARD IF THERE'S
01:26:16:00	01:26:17:00	NOT AN ANY INCOME SOURCE AT ALL

01:26:59:00	01:27:00:00	JUST I COULD ADD TO THAT THOUGH
01:27:00:00	01:27:02:00	IT'S YOU KNOW AS OF RIGHT
01:27:02:00	01:27:03:00	WITHIN THE FOOTPRINT OF THE
01:27:03:00	01:27:07:00	EXISTING STRUCTURE AND WE ARE
01:27:07:00	01:27:07:00	IN CONVERSATIONS WITH FIRE AND
01:27:07:00	01:27:10:00	THE BPA IN COMMUNITIES ABOUT
01:27:10:00	01:27:11:00	STRUCTURES NOW OUTSIDE OF THE
01:27:11:00	01:27:14:00	GARAGE THAT CARRIAGE HOUSES
01:27:14:00	01:27:17:00	SMALL PROPERTIES BUT THERE'S A
01:27:17:00	01:27:18:00	LOT OF ISSUES TO WORK OUT.
01:27:18:00	01:27:20:00	YEAH, I THINK YOU KNOW, IT IS
01:27:20:00	01:27:22:00	ANOTHER TOOL THE KIT FOR US
01:27:22:00	01:27:23:00	ESPECIALLY WHEN WE THINK ABOUT
01:27:23:00	01:27:26:00	NELDA'S WERE LIVING IN OVER AND
01:27:26:00	01:27:29:00	IN MAYBE A TWO FAMILY THEY WANT
01:27:29:00	01:27:30:00	TO DOWNSIZE BUT THERE'S NOWHERE
01:27:30:00	01:27:33:00	FOR THEM TO GO.
01:27:33:00	01:27:34:00	SO IF THEY CAN CREATE A LITTLE
01:27:34:00	01:27:35:00	ADDITIONAL DWELLING UNIT THEN
01:27:35:00	01:27:38:00	THEN IT CAN RENT THEIR HOME.
01:27:38:00	01:27:41:00	THERE ARE TWO OR TWO UNITS OR
01:27:41:00	01:27:42:00	WHATEVER IT IS.
01:27:42:00	01:27:43:00	IT'S A GREAT WAY AND I THINK
01:27:43:00	01:27:45:00	THAT'S AN ONGOING THEME WITH
01:27:45:00	01:27:49:00	OUR AGING POPULATION THAT WE
01:27:49:00	01:27:50:00	HAVE A LOT OF FOLKS WHO ARE
01:27:50:00	01:27:53:00	OVER HOUSED, THEIR FAMILIES ARE
01:27:53:00	01:27:56:00	GROWN AND LEFT AND BUT THEY DO
01:27:56:00	01:27:57:00	WANT TO STAY IN THE
01:27:57:00	01:27:58:00	NEIGHBORHOOD AND BUT IF THEY
01:27:58:00	01:28:00:00	SELL THEIR HOUSE THEY GET THE
01:28:00:00	01:28:04:00	GET A TIDY SUM FOR BUT WHEN
01:28:04:00	01:28:05:00	THEY GO TO BUY SOMETHING IN THE
01:28:05:00	01:28:07:00	FIRST OF ALL THERE ISN'T SUPPLY
01:28:07:00	01:28:10:00	FOR HOMES THAT ARE SUITABLE FOR
01:28:10:00	01:28:12:00	ELDERS WHO WANT TO AGE IN PLACE
01:28:12:00	01:28:22:00	AND COMMUNITY.
01:28:22:00	01:28:23:00	AND SECOND OF ALL, THAT'S THAT
01:28:23:00	01:28:24:00	BLOW A LOT OF THEIR MONEY THE
01:28:24:00	01:28:24:00	TIDY SUM WOULD VERY QUICKLY BE
01:28:24:00	01:28:25:00	DIMINISHED BY THE COST
01:28:25:00	01:28:25:00	OF HOUSING.
01:28:25:00	01:28:26:00	SO ARE WE LOOKING AT.
01:28:26:00	01:28:27:00	I KNOW THAT WE LOOK AT UNPERSON

01:28:35:00	01:28:38:00	STAY IN OUR NEIGHBORHOODS NEED
01:28:38:00	01:28:38:00	AND PLACE.
01:28:38:00	01:28:42:00	SO FIRST LET ME JUST SAY THAT I
01:28:42:00	01:28:43:00	LOVE ADIEUS I LOVE THEM AND I
01:28:43:00	01:28:45:00	REALLY DO NEED TO WORK THROUGH

01:28:46:00	01:28:50:00	AND AND LET THEM FLOURISH.
01:28:50:00	01:28:51:00	THEY ARE GOOD FOR ADULT
01:28:51:00	01:28:53:00	CHILDREN.
01:28:53:00	01:28:54:00	THEY'RE GOOD FOR IT LIKE YOU
01:28:54:00	01:28:55:00	MENTIONED SENIORS THAT MAY WANT

01:28:57:00	01:28:57:00	WITH THEIR FAMILIES HAVE THE
01:28:57:00	01:28:58:00	MAIN HOUSE BUT THEY WANT TO BE
01:28:58:00	01:29:01:00	CLOSE BY.
01:29:01:00	01:29:02:00	THEY CAN SUPPORT EACH OTHER USE

01:29:17:00	01:29:18:00	THE PROGRAM THAT TO LIFE I
01:29:18:00	01:29:20:00	THINK YOU REFERENCING IS FOR
01:29:20:00	01:29:24:00	SENIORS THAT HAVE OUR HOUSE
01:29:24:00	01:29:24:00	RICH BUT MAYBE HAVE FIXED
01:29:24:00	01:29:27:00	INCOMES THAT THEY CAN SELL
01:29:27:00	01:29:28:00	THEIR HOME THAT THEY'RE IN AND
01:29:28:00	01:29:32:00	THEN RETIRE THE EXISTING DEBT
01:29:32:00	01:29:33:00	ON A ON A WHEN THEY MOVE INTO A
01:29:33:00	01:29:36:00	SENIOR FACILITY AND THEN
01:29:36:00	01:29:37:00	THEY'VE GOT A VERY SMALL CARRY
01:29:37:00	01:29:40:00	MONTH TO MONTH AND THEY DO WANT
01:29:40:00	01:29:41:00	TO DO A PROJECT IN BOSTON.
01:29:41:00	01:29:44:00	SO WE ARE IN CONVERSATIONS WITH
01:29:44:00	01:29:45:00	THEM TO FIND A SITE STILL THEY

01:29:52:00	01:29:53:00	HERE AND DO SEVERAL OF THEM.
01:29:53:00	01:29:55:00	YEAH, BECAUSE I THINK WE'RE
01:29:55:00	01:29:59:00	GOING TO SEE A TSUNAMI ELDER
01:29:59:00	01:30:03:00	AND ELDER HOMELESSNESS AMONG
01:30:03:00	01:30:04:00	FOLKS WHO ARE RENTERS AS WELL.
01:30:04:00	01:30:05:00	THAT'S ANOTHER HUGE PROBLEM
01:30:05:00	01:30:07:00	THAT WE'RE SEEING MORE OF .
01:30:07:00	01:30:08:00	I DON'T KNOW OF ANY THOUGHTS ON
01:30:08:00	01:30:11:00	THAT SENIORS THAT ARE HOMELESS
01:30:11:00	01:30:12:00	AND YOU SAY THAT ARE THE
01:30:12:00	01:30:14:00	POTENTIAL TO BECOME AS THERE
01:30:14:00	01:30:15:00	HAVE BEEN LONG TERM LONG TERM
01:30:15:00	01:30:19:00	TENANTS FOR MAYBE THIRTY YEARS
01:30:19:00	01:30:20:00	AND THEN THE FOLKS THAT THEY
01:30:20:00	01:30:22:00	RENT FROM ARE PASSING THE HOME
01:30:22:00	01:30:26:00	ON TO ANOTHER GENERATION AND
01:30:26:00	01:30:27:00	THEN THE YOUNGER GENERATION
01:30:27:00	01:30:28:00	WANT TO SELL THE HOUSE AND GET
01:30:28:00	01:30:30:00	OUT THE THE YOU KNOW, CASH THE

01:30:31:00	01:30:34:00	RECEIVING SO MANY OF THOSE
01:30:34:00	01:30:36:00	CALLS AND I DON'T I'LL SEE IF
01:30:36:00	01:30:39:00	THEY HAVE TO GET DATA AND IF
01:30:39:00	01:30:40:00	THEY DO I CAN I CAN FORWARD IT
01:30:40:00	01:30:41:00	TO YOU AND NOW WE'RE WORKING
01:30:41:00	01:30:42:00	WITH TWO OR THREE SENIOR
01:30:42:00	01:30:43:00	AGENCIES JUST TO WORK ON THIS
01:30:43:00	01:30:46:00	PARTICULAR PROBLEM.
01:30:46:00	01:30:47:00	SENIORS THAT HAVE LIVED IN THE
01:30:47:00	01:30:50:00	SAME APARTMENT FOR 25 30 YEARS
01:30:50:00	01:30:51:00	AND NOW THESE APARTMENTS SEEM
01:30:51:00	01:30:52:00	TO BE CHANGING HANDS AT A MORE
01:30:52:00	01:30:54:00	RAPID CLIP THAN I'VE EVER SEEN
01:30:54:00	01:30:55:00	AND WE'RE GETTING I PROBABLY
01:30:55:00	01:30:56:00	HAVE THREE OR FOUR OR FIVE
01:30:56:00	01:30:58:00	CASES RIGHT NOW TO PERSONALLY
01:30:58:00	01:31:01:00	SO WE ARE SEEING THAT WE WERE
01:31:01:00	01:31:02:00	PLEASED THAT THE STATE JUST
01:31:02:00	01:31:05:00	FUNDED THREE OF OUR SENIOR
01:31:05:00	01:31:06:00	PROJECTS THAT NEIGHBORHOOD
01:31:06:00	01:31:10:00	HOUSING DIVISION PUT FORTH.
01:31:10:00	01:31:11:00	SO THAT WAS A REALLY GOOD
01:31:11:00	01:31:11:00	ANNOUNCEMENT.
01:31:11:00	01:31:12:00	A COUPLE OF COUPLE OF COUPLE
01:31:12:00	01:31:13:00	OF MONTHS AGO.
01:31:13:00	01:31:14:00	SO WE'LL START CONSTRUCTION ON
01:31:14:00	01:31:14:00	THOSE.
01:31:14:00	01:31:16:00	WE DO HAVE A VERY HEALTHY
01:31:16:00	01:31:17:00	SENIOR PIPELINE BUT IT'S NOT
01:31:17:00	01:31:18:00	ENOUGH FOR FOR YOU, RIGHT.
01:31:18:00	01:31:19:00	THE CHANGING DEMOGRAPHIC.
01:31:19:00	01:31:24:00	THANK YOU.
01:31:24:00	01:31:25:00	SO I'M I'M REALLY PLEASED THAT
01:31:25:00	01:31:28:00	IN ALLSTON BRIGHTON WE HAVE
01:31:28:00	01:31:29:00	SUCCEEDED IN GETTING A NICE
01:31:29:00	01:31:32:00	RANGE OF IDP'S IN AND NEW
01:31:32:00	01:31:36:00	PROJECTS.
01:31:36:00	01:31:37:00	I STILL FEEL THAT ONE OF THE
01:31:37:00	01:31:39:00	BIGGEST CHALLENGES IS ACTUALLY
01:31:39:00	01:31:40:00	GETTING DEVELOPERS TO DEVELOP
01:31:40:00	01:31:44:00	LIKE A FAMILY SIZE UNIT WE ARE
01:31:44:00	01:31:45:00	WE HAVE SOME SUCCESS WANTED BUT
01:31:45:00	01:31:47:00	IT'S IT'S REALLY NOT ENOUGH TO
01:31:47:00	01:31:48:00	MEET THE DEMAND ESPECIALLY IN
01:31:48:00	01:31:51:00	OUR NEIGHBORHOOD WHERE FAMILIES
01:31:51:00	01:31:52:00	ARE COMPETING WITH STUDENTS FOR
01:31:52:00	01:31:55:00	BIGGER UNITS.
01:31:55:00	01:31:56:00	SO I DON'T KNOW ARE THERE ANY
01:31:56:00	01:31:59:00	PARTICULAR INITIATIVES IN THE
01:31:59:00	01:32:00:00	DEPARTMENT TO THINK ABOUT
01:32:00:00	01:32:00:00	FAMILY HOUSING?
01:32:00:00	01:32:00:00	YEAH.
01:32:00:00	01:32:03:00	SO WE THE MAYOR'S OFFICE
01:32:03:00	01:32:04:00	OF HOUSING UNDER JESSICA
01:32:04:00	01:32:07:00	BOATWRIGHT'S LEADERSHIP WE'RE
01:32:07:00	01:32:08:00	WE'RE DEVELOPING A LOT
01:32:08:00	01:32:10:00	OF FAMILY THAT'S THE MAJORITY
01:32:10:00	01:32:11:00	OF WHAT WE DO IS WE DEVELOP WE
01:32:11:00	01:32:14:00	WE FUND AND SUPPORT THE
01:32:14:00	01:32:14:00	DEVELOPMENT OF FAMILY
01:32:14:00	01:32:18:00	AFFORDABLE UNITS ONE CHANGE OR
01:32:18:00	01:32:21:00	ONE EMPHASIS ON THE REVISED
01:32:21:00	01:32:22:00	INCLUSIONARY DEVELOPMENT POLICY
01:32:22:00	01:32:26:00	IS THAT DEVELOPERS WOULD BE
01:32:26:00	01:32:27:00	REQUIRED TO GIVE US FIFTEEN OR
01:32:27:00	01:32:30:00	SEVENTEEN PLUS THREE BUT
01:32:30:00	01:32:31:00	OF UNITS OR SQUARE FOOTAGE AND
01:32:31:00	01:32:33:00	THAT WAY WE COULD NEGOTIATE
01:32:33:00	01:32:34:00	WITH THE DEVELOPER FOR LARGER
01:32:34:00	01:32:37:00	UNITS WE WOULD BE AND RECEIVING
01:32:37:00	01:32:38:00	FEWER UNITS BUT WE WOULD BE
01:32:38:00	01:32:41:00	RECEIVING MORE FAMILY UNITS
01:32:41:00	01:32:42:00	BECAUSE YOU'RE RIGHT A LOT
01:32:42:00	01:32:45:00	OF THE THE NEW THE NEW
01:32:45:00	01:32:46:00	DEVELOPMENTS IN THE CITY ARE
01:32:46:00	01:32:47:00	STUDIOS AND ONE BEDROOMS
01:32:47:00	01:32:49:00	SERVING YOUNG WORKERS BUT THAT
01:32:49:00	01:32:50:00	DOESN'T SERVE FAMILIES.
01:32:50:00	01:32:54:00	SO WE DO WANT TO KEEP THAT
01:32:54:00	01:33:00:00	OPTION OPEN AND GOOD LINKAGE.
01:33:00:00	01:33:01:00	THE OTHER THING THAT WE'VE DONE
01:33:01:00	01:33:05:00	IS JUST WHEN WE SEE LAVS COMING
01:33:05:00	01:33:06:00	IN ASKING THEM TO BUILD HOUSING
01:33:06:00	01:33:09:00	AND SOME OF THEM TELL US TO GO
01:33:09:00	01:33:10:00	AWAY, WE DON'T BUILD HOUSING
01:33:10:00	01:33:16:00	AND SO I ALSO FEEL LIKE IN
01:33:16:00	01:33:19:00	TERMS OF REPURPOSING COMMERCIAL
01:33:19:00	01:33:20:00	BUILDINGS DON'T LIKE THE OFFICE
01:33:20:00	01:33:23:00	THEY CAN INCREASE DECREASED
01:33:23:00	01:33:24:00	OCCUPANCY IN OUR COMMERCIAL
01:33:24:00	01:33:27:00	BUILDINGS OFFICE SPACE.
01:33:27:00	01:33:31:00	ARE WE ABLE TO WHAT'S THE
01:33:31:00	01:33:32:00	FEASIBILITY IN TERMS
01:33:32:00	01:33:34:00	OF ECONOMICS TO CONVERT SOME
01:33:34:00	01:33:35:00	OF THAT INTO HOUSING?
01:33:35:00	01:33:38:00	ARE WE WORKING ON THAT SO I
01:33:38:00	01:33:39:00	THINK WE'VE HAD THE BEST
01:33:39:00	01:33:40:00	SUCCESS WHEN WE'VE BEEN TALKING
01:33:40:00	01:33:43:00	TO LAB DEVELOPERS AND THAT
01:33:43:00	01:33:43:00	SUCCESS HAS COME FROM COMMUNITY
01:33:43:00	01:33:44:00	INPUT QUITE HONESTLY.
01:33:44:00	01:33:46:00	YOU KNOW, I CAN THINK
01:33:46:00	01:33:47:00	OF SEVERAL INSTANCES WHERE
01:33:47:00	01:33:50:00	DEVELOPERS HAVE COME IN BECAUSE
01:33:50:00	01:33:51:00	THROUGH A COMMUNITY PROCESS I'M
01:33:51:00	01:33:52:00	THINKING OF YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD
01:33:52:00	01:33:54:00	LIKE AN EVERETT SOLDIERS FIELD
01:33:54:00	01:33:54:00	ROAD.
01:33:54:00	01:33:57:00	THEY HAVE SAID YES TO ALSO
01:33:57:00	01:33:58:00	DOING PUTTING ASIDE SOME LAND
01:33:58:00	01:34:01:00	FOR HOUSING OR SUBSTANTIAL
01:34:01:00	01:34:02:00	FUNDING AFFORDABLE HOUSING
01:34:02:00	01:34:02:00	ELSEWHERE.
01:34:02:00	01:34:10:00	SO THE THE WE WERE ABLE TO DO
01:34:10:00	01:34:10:00	THAT SIX MONTHS AGO.
01:34:10:00	01:34:11:00	I MEAN THE MARKET I THINK IS AN
01:34:11:00	01:34:14:00	EXACT AS ROBUST AS IT WAS BUT
01:34:14:00	01:34:15:00	WE HAVE SEEN THROUGHOUT THE
01:34:15:00	01:34:17:00	CITY LAB DEVELOPERS WILLING TO
01:34:17:00	01:34:18:00	TAKE ON A HOUSING COMPONENT.
01:34:18:00	01:34:22:00	ANOTHER GOOD EXAMPLE, CHINATOWN
01:34:22:00	01:34:23:00	WHERE THEY WERE PROPOSING A LAB
01:34:23:00	01:34:25:00	BUT THEY WERE ALSO PROPOSING
01:34:25:00	01:34:26:00	PROVIDING A VERY, VERY
01:34:26:00	01:34:29:00	IMPORTANT BUILDING ESSAIBI
01:34:29:00	01:34:29:00	STREET FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING
01:34:29:00	01:34:30:00	AS PART OF THE COMMUNITY
01:34:30:00	01:34:32:00	MITIGATION.
01:34:32:00	01:34:34:00	SO I DO THINK IT'S A LOT OF THE
01:34:34:00	01:34:35:00	SUCCESSES HAVE COME FROM THE
01:34:35:00	01:34:37:00	COMMUNITY HAD BEEN THEN
01:34:37:00	01:34:38:00	MEMORIALIZED AND SOLIDIFIED BY
01:34:38:00	01:34:40:00	CITY AGENCY.

01:34:41:00	01:34:42:00	IT'S IT'S BEEN A GOOD OUTCOME.

01:38:41:00	01:38:41:00	EMERGENCIES HAPPEN IN OUR
01:38:41:00	01:38:45:00	DISTRICT.
01:38:45:00	01:38:46:00	I'M THINKING ABOUT THE
01:38:46:00	01:38:47:00	PRINCETON STREET FIRE AND ALL
01:38:47:00	01:38:49:00	OF THE NEW ARRIVALS IN
01:38:49:00	01:38:49:00	IMMIGRANT FAMILIES THAT HAVE
01:38:49:00	01:38:50:00	SHOWN UP AT EAST BOSTON HEALTH
01:38:50:00	01:38:53:00	CENTER AS WELL AS THE THE
01:38:53:00	01:38:56:00	POLICE STATION.
01:38:56:00	01:38:57:00	AND SO I HAVE A COUPLE
01:38:57:00	01:38:58:00	OF QUESTIONS ABOUT THE
01:38:58:00	01:39:00:00	EMERGENCY HOUSING PROGRAM
01:39:00:00	01:39:01:00	OFFICE OF HOUSING STABILITY
01:39:01:00	01:39:05:00	STAFF CAPACITY GROW AND I LOVE
01:39:05:00	01:39:08:00	THAT IN THE CITY OF BOSTON
01:39:08:00	01:39:09:00	ABOUT YOUR PROGRAM AND THEN AN
01:39:09:00	01:39:10:00	ADDITIONAL QUESTION ABOUT THE
01:39:10:00	01:39:10:00	NEW PROGRAM.
01:39:10:00	01:39:13:00	SO TO GO QUICKLY THROUGH IT TO
01:39:13:00	01:39:14:00	MAKE SURE I CAN TRY TO GET ALL
01:39:14:00	01:39:17:00	OF THAT AND ALL OF THAT.
01:39:17:00	01:39:18:00	SO WHEN IT COMES TO THE
01:39:18:00	01:39:20:00	EMERGENCY HOUSING PROGRAM, WE
01:39:20:00	01:39:20:00	ARE WORKING THROUGH SOME OF THE
01:39:20:00	01:39:21:00	LOGISTICS AND OPERATIONAL
01:39:21:00	01:39:23:00	CHALLENGES THAT HAVE EMERGED IN
01:39:23:00	01:39:24:00	WORKING WITH NOAA AND SOME
01:39:24:00	01:39:25:00	OTHER FOLKS TO TRY TO HOUSE
01:39:25:00	01:39:28:00	PEOPLE ON ON A TIMELINE THAT
01:39:28:00	01:39:29:00	WORKS FOR THEM AND TRYING TO
01:39:29:00	01:39:32:00	FIND NEW UNITS THAT THEY'RE
01:39:32:00	01:39:35:00	ABLE TO AFFORD.
01:39:35:00	01:39:36:00	I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO GET
01:39:36:00	01:39:37:00	BUILDING COLLAPSES INCLUDED IN
01:39:37:00	01:39:37:00	THIS.
01:39:37:00	01:39:40:00	THIS WAS SOMETHING THAT WE
01:39:40:00	01:39:40:00	BROUGHT UP DURING THE EMERGENCY
01:39:40:00	01:39:44:00	RESPONSE HEARING WHEN CHIEF
01:39:44:00	01:39:48:00	BENSON WAS HERE AND SO I WOULD
01:39:48:00	01:39:49:00	JUST LIKE TO FLAG THAT FOR YOU
01:39:49:00	01:39:50:00	ALL THAT WE'VE SEEN AN INCREASE
01:39:50:00	01:39:51:00	IN BUILDING COLLAPSES IN MY
01:39:51:00	01:39:52:00	DISTRICT, ESPECIALLY IN THE
01:39:52:00	01:39:55:00	NORTH END.
01:39:55:00	01:39:55:00	SO JUST PUTTING THAT OUT THERE
01:39:55:00	01:39:56:00	WHEN IT COMES TO MIGRANT
01:39:56:00	01:39:59:00	FAMILIES IN NEW ARRIVALS AGAIN
01:39:59:00	01:40:00:00	YOUR TEAM HAS BEEN DOING AN
01:40:00:00	01:40:03:00	AWESOME JOB IN THROUGHOUT THE

01:40:07:00	01:40:07:00	FOLD INCREASE.
01:40:07:00	01:40:11:00	I THINK IT WAS IT WENT FROM 350
01:40:11:00	01:40:11:00	THOUSAND TO SEVEN HUNDRED AND
01:40:11:00	01:40:14:00	FIFTY THOUSAND DID I GET THAT
01:40:14:00	01:40:14:00	RIGHT?
01:40:14:00	01:40:18:00	OK, HOW MANY INDIVIDUALS DID WE
01:40:18:00	01:40:19:00	SERVICE THIS YEAR AND WHAT IS
01:40:19:00	01:40:22:00	THE ANTICIPATED NEW NUMBER JUST
01:40:22:00	01:40:23:00	GIVEN THE AMOUNT OF NEW
01:40:23:00	01:40:26:00	ARRIVALS THAT ARE COMING IN?
01:40:26:00	01:40:27:00	SO I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU THE
01:40:27:00	01:40:28:00	EXACT NUMBER.

01:40:41:00	01:40:42:00	COMING FROM BOSTON MEDICAL
01:40:42:00	01:40:45:00	CENTER AND THE POLICE STATIONS

01:40:49:00	01:40:50:00	ONE ONE I'LL GET YOU THAT
01:40:50:00	01:40:50:00	NUMBER.
01:40:50:00	01:40:51:00	WE PROBABLY CAN EVEN GET IT
01:40:51:00	01:40:53:00	LIKE BEFORE WE LEAVE TODAY.
01:40:53:00	01:40:54:00	SO YOU ARE CORRECT.
01:40:54:00	01:40:57:00	WE'VE BROUGHT ON ADDITIONAL
01:40:57:00	01:40:57:00	CAPACITY THROUGH FAMILY AID
01:40:57:00	01:40:58:00	BECAUSE THEY HAVE STAFF AND
01:40:58:00	01:41:01:00	THEY ARE ABLE TO PROVIDE
01:41:01:00	01:41:02:00	SERVICES AND YOU KNOW, 24/7
01:41:02:00	01:41:04:00	SERVICES.
01:41:04:00	01:41:05:00	SO WE'VE BROUGHT ON ADDITIONAL
01:41:05:00	01:41:06:00	ROOMS THROUGH FAMILY AID AT
01:41:06:00	01:41:08:00	SOME OF THE LOCAL HOTELS.
01:41:08:00	01:41:12:00	WE ARE WATCHING THIS DAILY I I
01:41:12:00	01:41:13:00	CAN SAY WITH CONFIDENCE THAT
01:41:13:00	01:41:16:00	THE STATE RESPONSE HAS BEEN
01:41:16:00	01:41:17:00	MORE COORDINATED AND I KNOW
01:41:17:00	01:41:21:00	THAT I THINK THE GOVERNOR IS
01:41:21:00	01:41:21:00	MAKING SOME ANNOUNCEMENTS TODAY
01:41:21:00	01:41:22:00	TO TO REALLY BEEF UP THESE
01:41:22:00	01:41:24:00	EFFORTS AS WELL.
01:41:24:00	01:41:25:00	SO I THINK THEY'RE BRINGING ON
01:41:25:00	01:41:28:00	SOME SOME FOLKS TO REALLY HELP
01:41:28:00	01:41:29:00	WITH THIS BECAUSE THE STATE'S
01:41:29:00	01:41:29:00	BEEN USING THE EMERGENCY
01:41:29:00	01:41:31:00	SHELTER THE EMERGENCY SHELTER
01:41:31:00	01:41:32:00	SYSTEM AND IT'S IT'S NEEDED
01:41:32:00	01:41:36:00	IT'S AND THEY'VE DONE AN
01:41:36:00	01:41:36:00	ADMIRABLE JOB.
01:41:36:00	01:41:37:00	IT'S JUST IT IS NEEDED MORE
01:41:37:00	01:41:39:00	RESOURCES.
01:41:39:00	01:41:40:00	SO WE HAVE PROVIDED AND WE GET
01:41:40:00	01:41:43:00	THE CALL AS YOU KNOW, WE
01:41:43:00	01:41:44:00	PROVIDE HOTEL ROOMS OR SAFE
01:41:44:00	01:41:47:00	SPACES UNTIL THESE FAMILIES CAN
01:41:47:00	01:41:48:00	ACCESS THE THE EMERGENCY
01:41:48:00	01:41:51:00	ASSISTANCE THROUGH THE STATE
01:41:51:00	01:41:52:00	AND GET INTO THE SHELTER
01:41:52:00	01:41:52:00	SYSTEM.
01:41:52:00	01:41:55:00	NONE OF IT IS IDEAL BUT I AM I
01:41:55:00	01:41:56:00	AM HAPPY TO SAY THAT THERE
01:41:56:00	01:41:59:00	HASN'T BEEN ANY FAMILIES OUT ON
01:41:59:00	01:42:00:00	THE STREET FOR LONGER THAN
01:42:00:00	01:42:00:00	OURS.
01:42:00:00	01:42:01:00	NO ONE HAS BEEN ON THE STREET
01:42:01:00	01:42:03:00	FOR DAYS AND SO IF WE SERVED
01:42:03:00	01:42:06:00	NINE HUNDRED INDIVIDUALS AND
01:42:06:00	01:42:07:00	WE'RE SEEING A TWO FOLD
01:42:07:00	01:42:07:00	INCREASE SO WE'RE EXPECTING
01:42:07:00	01:42:08:00	THAT THIS COULD COVER ABOUT 800
01:42:08:00	01:42:11:00	FAMILIES THROUGHOUT THE REST
01:42:11:00	01:42:11:00	OF THE YEAR.
01:42:11:00	01:42:12:00	I THINK THAT I THINK THAT'S
01:42:12:00	01:42:12:00	RIGHT.
01:42:12:00	01:42:15:00	I THINK THAT'S RIGHT NOW THE
01:42:15:00	01:42:15:00	NOAA CONTRACT HAS BEEN LESS
01:42:15:00	01:42:18:00	EXPENSIVE FOR US BECAUSE WE'RE
01:42:18:00	01:42:18:00	PAYING FOR HOTEL ROOMS.
01:42:18:00	01:42:19:00	THEY'RE THEY'RE DOING SOME
01:42:19:00	01:42:21:00	SUPPORT SERVICES.
01:42:21:00	01:42:22:00	FAMILY AID HAS BEEN MORE
01:42:22:00	01:42:23:00	EXPENSIVE BECAUSE THEY'RE
01:42:23:00	01:42:26:00	PROVIDING 24/7 SERVICES AND
01:42:26:00	01:42:27:00	FOOD AND YOU KNOW, LINKS TO
01:42:27:00	01:42:30:00	MEDICAL INSTITUTIONS ET CETERA.
01:42:30:00	01:42:31:00	SO IT'S A BETTER SERVICE, A
01:42:31:00	01:42:31:00	FAMILY AID.
01:42:31:00	01:42:32:00	SO IT'S SLIGHTLY MORE
01:42:32:00	01:42:32:00	EXPENSIVE.
01:42:32:00	01:42:34:00	SO YOU BASICALLY ANSWER MY NEXT
01:42:34:00	01:42:35:00	QUESTION WAS DO WE ANTICIPATE
01:42:35:00	01:42:38:00	ANY HELP FROM THE FEDERAL OR
01:42:38:00	01:42:38:00	STATE GOVERNMENT AND DO YOU
01:42:38:00	01:42:39:00	THINK THAT'S GOING TO BE ENOUGH
01:42:39:00	01:42:41:00	BECAUSE FOR ME I MEAN 800
01:42:41:00	01:42:45:00	FAMILIES WE'VE SEEN X COME IN
01:42:45:00	01:42:45:00	WE'RE GOING TO SEE MORE.
01:42:45:00	01:42:46:00	DO YOU FEEL LIKE THAT'S GOING
01:42:46:00	01:42:48:00	TO BE ABLE TO COVER IT?
01:42:48:00	01:42:49:00	I THINK YOU KNOW, WE'RE
01:42:49:00	01:42:50:00	WATCHING THIS WEEKLY WE'RE
01:42:50:00	01:42:53:00	WATCHING THIS MONTHLY AND I
01:42:53:00	01:42:54:00	KNOW THAT ALL OF US INCLUDING
01:42:54:00	01:42:57:00	THE CITY COUNCIL , THE
01:42:57:00	01:42:58:00	ADMINISTRATION IS GOING TO STEP
01:42:58:00	01:42:58:00	UP AND DO IT.
01:42:58:00	01:42:59:00	WE NEED TO DO RIGHT.
01:42:59:00	01:43:00:00	WE'RE GOING TO MAKE SURE THAT
01:43:00:00	01:43:01:00	WE HAVE THE RESOURCES TO TO
01:43:01:00	01:43:04:00	MAKE SURE THAT NO FAMILY ENDS
01:43:04:00	01:43:05:00	UP ON ON THE STREETS OR STAYS
01:43:05:00	01:43:08:00	IN A IN A WAITING ROOM LONGER
01:43:08:00	01:43:09:00	THAN THAN THEY SHOULD.
01:43:09:00	01:43:11:00	SO WE'RE GOING TO WATCH
01:43:11:00	01:43:12:00	CAREFULLY THERE IS ADDITIONAL
01:43:12:00	01:43:16:00	MONEY COMING FROM THE FEDS.
01:43:16:00	01:43:17:00	THE CITY WAS JUST ABLE TO
01:43:17:00	01:43:20:00	SECURE A GRANT FOR SOME FOR
01:43:20:00	01:43:23:00	SOME HOW MUCH IS THAT A 877
01:43:23:00	01:43:24:00	THOUSAND.
01:43:24:00	01:43:25:00	I THINK THEY JUST SECURED A
01:43:25:00	01:43:26:00	GRANT FROM THE FEDERAL
01:43:26:00	01:43:27:00	GOVERNMENT FOR THIS PARTICULAR
01:43:27:00	01:43:28:00	TYPE OF SERVICE.
01:43:28:00	01:43:31:00	SO THE FEDS ARE MAKING SOME
01:43:31:00	01:43:32:00	MORE MONEY AVAILABLE.
01:43:32:00	01:43:32:00	THE STATE IS STEPPING UP I
01:43:32:00	01:43:35:00	THINK IN MAKING MORE RESOURCES
01:43:35:00	01:43:36:00	BOTH ADMINISTRATIVE AND
01:43:36:00	01:43:39:00	FINANCIAL.
01:43:39:00	01:43:40:00	SO I THINK WE'RE GOING TO BE OK
01:43:40:00	01:43:41:00	BUT IT'S ONE THAT WE WATCH
01:43:41:00	01:43:42:00	TRULY ON A WEEKLY BASIS BECAUSE
01:43:42:00	01:43:43:00	SOME NIGHTS FIFTEEN FAMILIES
01:43:43:00	01:43:47:00	CAN ARRIVE AND AND THEY'LL BE
01:43:47:00	01:43:48:00	TO TWO NIGHTS WHERE NO FAMILIES
01:43:48:00	01:43:48:00	WILL ARRIVE.
01:43:48:00	01:43:50:00	BUT DANIEL NOSHAQ THE NUMBERS
01:43:50:00	01:43:51:00	EVERY SINGLE MORNING AND THEN
01:43:51:00	01:43:52:00	WE GO INTO ACTION TO MAKE SURE
01:43:52:00	01:43:54:00	THAT EVERYBODY'S OK IN TERMS
01:43:54:00	01:43:55:00	OF AND THANK YOU FOR THAT.
01:43:55:00	01:43:56:00	OH, JUST GOING TO ADD ON THE ON
01:43:56:00	01:43:58:00	THE ON FEMA GRANTS WE GOT EIGHT

01:44:00:00	01:44:02:00	THEN WAITING WE APPLIED FOR ONE
01:44:02:00	01:44:03:00	ONE WE HAVE APPLIED FOR ONE

01:44:06:00	01:44:07:00	INCLUDING THE PREVIOUS COSTS
01:44:07:00	01:44:07:00	GOING.
01:44:07:00	01:44:10:00	I FORGET WHEN THAT GOES BACK TO

01:44:29:00	01:44:32:00	SO ON AVERAGE THAT'S ABOUT
01:44:32:00	01:44:32:00	FOURTEEN INDIVIDUALS PER DAY.
01:44:32:00	01:44:36:00	I'M CURIOUS TO KNOW ABOUT YOUR
01:44:36:00	01:44:37:00	STAFF CAPACITY AND HOW MANY
01:44:37:00	01:44:39:00	CASES EACH STAFFER HAS AND IF
01:44:39:00	01:44:40:00	THAT'S ENOUGH.
01:44:40:00	01:44:41:00	OK, I'M GOING ASK DANIELLE TO

01:44:48:00	01:44:50:00	THAT ARE BEHIND US AND THEY'RE
01:44:50:00	01:44:51:00	STILL THERE.
01:44:51:00	01:44:51:00	OH NO.
01:44:51:00	01:44:52:00	THEY HAD TO GO BACK TO WORK.
01:44:52:00	01:44:53:00	THEY WERE GOING TO COME JUST
01:44:53:00	01:44:54:00	FOR A WHILE.
01:44:54:00	01:44:55:00	BUT WE'RE ALSO USING CONTRACTS
01:44:55:00	01:44:55:00	TO NONPROFITS.
01:44:55:00	01:45:02:00	BUT IT WAS GOOD MORNING FOR THE

01:45:13:00	01:45:14:00	CONSTITUENTS WHETHER THAT'S
01:45:14:00	01:45:17:00	EMERGENCY CASES OR DAY TO DAY

01:45:21:00	01:45:22:00	STAFF THEY HANDLE ABOUT FORTY
01:45:22:00	01:45:25:00	CASES AND THAT INCLUDES A
01:45:25:00	01:45:26:00	SENIOR STAFF MEMBER WHO DOUBLES
01:45:26:00	01:45:29:00	THAT THAT AMOUNT OF CASELOAD
01:45:29:00	01:45:30:00	AND WE'RE CURRENTLY IN THE
01:45:30:00	01:45:33:00	PROCESS OF HIRING A NEW HOUSING
01:45:33:00	01:45:36:00	CRISIS COORDINATOR AS WELL TO
01:45:36:00	01:45:37:00	TAKE ON THAT ADDITIONAL
01:45:37:00	01:45:37:00	CAPACITY.

01:45:41:00	01:45:41:00	CRISIS COORDINATOR AND THEN WE
01:45:41:00	01:45:44:00	ALSO HAVE STAFF THAT YOU RENT

01:45:45:00	01:45:47:00	A SMALL CASELOAD OF THE
01:45:47:00	01:45:48:00	EMERGENCY HOUSING CASES.
01:45:48:00	01:45:49:00	OK, GREAT.
01:45:49:00	01:45:50:00	AND SO THERE THERE WAS AN
01:45:50:00	01:45:53:00	ADDITIONAL I JUST WANT TO GET
01:45:53:00	01:45:54:00	THIS RIGHT FOUR POINT SEVEN
01:45:54:00	01:45:55:00	MILLION GOING TOWARDS HOUSING
01:45:55:00	01:45:56:00	STABILITY.
01:45:56:00	01:45:57:00	SO YOU'RE GOING TO BE HIRING
01:45:57:00	01:45:59:00	ANOTHER HOUSING HOUSING CRISIS

01:46:04:00	01:46:05:00	YOU HAVE TOO MUCH AND SO WE
01:46:05:00	01:46:07:00	WANT TO EXPAND THE CAPACITY.
01:46:07:00	01:46:08:00	IS THERE AN OPPORTUNITY TO
01:46:08:00	01:46:11:00	THINK ABOUT HAVING ANOTHER
01:46:11:00	01:46:12:00	PERSON?
01:46:12:00	01:46:13:00	I MEAN HOW MUCH OF THIS FOUR
01:46:13:00	01:46:13:00	POINT SEVEN MILLION IS GOING
01:46:13:00	01:46:14:00	TOWARD STAFF I GUESS IS MY
01:46:14:00	01:46:16:00	QUESTION.
01:46:16:00	01:46:16:00	RIGHT.

01:46:24:00	01:46:24:00	WELL.
01:46:24:00	01:46:26:00	BUT THEY'LL PRIMARILY BE

01:50:59:00	01:51:03:00	LOOK AT HOUSING HOLISTICALLY
01:51:03:00	01:51:04:00	AND NOT JUST AROUND PLACING
01:51:04:00	01:51:05:00	PEOPLE BUT ALSO THINKING ABOUT
01:51:05:00	01:51:07:00	THE TRAUMA AND THE MENTAL
01:51:07:00	01:51:08:00	HEALTH AND WELLNESS NEEDS
01:51:08:00	01:51:10:00	OF OUR RECENT ARRIVALS IN
01:51:10:00	01:51:14:00	PARTICULAR?
01:51:14:00	01:51:15:00	IT'S A GREAT QUESTION.
01:51:15:00	01:51:15:00	YOU'RE RIGHT.
01:51:15:00	01:51:17:00	HOUSING IS I MEAN THAT'S WHY WE
01:51:17:00	01:51:19:00	THAT'S WHY WE'RE IN THIS FIELD
01:51:19:00	01:51:20:00	THAT IT IS AT THE ROOT
01:51:20:00	01:51:20:00	OF EVERYTHING.
01:51:20:00	01:51:20:00	RIGHT.
01:51:20:00	01:51:21:00	HEALTH AND MENTAL HEALTH AND
01:51:21:00	01:51:22:00	SCHOOL PERFORMANCE AND ACTUALLY
01:51:22:00	01:51:26:00	EVEN INCREASES IN WAGES.
01:51:26:00	01:51:26:00	RIGHT.
01:51:26:00	01:51:27:00	STABLE HOUSING ALLOWS YOU TO TO
01:51:27:00	01:51:30:00	FOCUS ON WHAT YOU'RE MAKING AND
01:51:30:00	01:51:30:00	WHERE YOU'RE WORKING.
01:51:30:00	01:51:34:00	SO I WILL SAY THE DAYS ARE KIND
01:51:34:00	01:51:35:00	OF A BLUR JUST GETTING PEOPLE
01:51:35:00	01:51:38:00	HOUSE BUT I THINK THERE ARE A

01:51:53:00	01:51:53:00	SHELTER.
01:51:53:00	01:51:54:00	SO THERE'S A LOT OF VERY GOOD
01:51:54:00	01:51:58:00	ORGANIZED CONVERSATIONS THERE.
01:51:58:00	01:51:59:00	WE'RE WORKING WITH THE PUBLIC

01:52:01:00	01:52:01:00	START WORKING WITH HOMELESS
01:52:01:00	01:52:04:00	INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES THAT
01:52:04:00	01:52:05:00	ARE LEAVING SHELTER AND
01:52:05:00	01:52:09:00	HOMELESS INDIVIDUALS THAT HAVE
01:52:09:00	01:52:10:00	OR HAVE GONE THROUGH AN AWFUL
01:52:10:00	01:52:13:00	LOT SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS OR
01:52:13:00	01:52:14:00	MENTAL HEALTH OR LOSS OF INCOME
01:52:14:00	01:52:17:00	AND WORKING WITH GPS TO MAKE
01:52:17:00	01:52:18:00	BOSTON PUBLIC HEALTH COMMISSION

01:52:28:00	01:52:29:00	WORK GOING ON.
01:52:29:00	01:52:32:00	I THINK IT'S REALLY ANY
01:52:32:00	01:52:32:00	ANYTHING THAT WE'RE NOT DOING
01:52:32:00	01:52:36:00	IS JUST BECAUSE OF LACK
01:52:36:00	01:52:36:00	OF HOURS IN THE DAY.
01:52:36:00	01:52:38:00	AND BUT I THINK YOU'RE RIGHT TO
01:52:38:00	01:52:39:00	SAY THAT THE CONNECTIONS NEED
01:52:39:00	01:52:40:00	TO BE STRONG AND WE NEED TO BE
01:52:40:00	01:52:41:00	VERY, VERY THOUGHTFUL ABOUT
01:52:41:00	01:52:41:00	THEM.
01:52:41:00	01:52:43:00	SO A VERY GOOD WORK AND MORE
01:52:43:00	01:52:44:00	WORK CAN BE DONE.

01:54:20:00	01:54:20:00	ITEMS.
01:54:20:00	01:54:24:00	WHAT I WANTED TO SAY SO JUST TO
01:54:24:00	01:54:25:00	GIVE YOU A SENSE OF HOW THIS
01:54:25:00	01:54:27:00	PARTNERSHIP WORKS BETWEEN
01:54:27:00	01:54:31:00	BOSTON HOUSING AUTHORITY BAPS
01:54:31:00	01:54:32:00	AND A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT
01:54:32:00	01:54:34:00	NON-PROFITS, THE THERE IT'S
01:54:34:00	01:54:35:00	REALLY IT'S ABOUT SEVERAL
01:54:35:00	01:54:38:00	HUNDRED VOUCHERS IN HIS POOL
01:54:38:00	01:54:42:00	AND SEVERAL HUNDRED THAT I
01:54:42:00	01:54:43:00	BELIEVE I THOUGHT THEY WERE
01:54:43:00	01:54:47:00	MORE THAN SAY SEVERAL HUNDRED.
01:54:47:00	01:54:48:00	YEAH, I CAN AND I CAN I CAN
01:54:48:00	01:54:50:00	FOLLOW UP WITH EXACT NUMBERS ON
01:54:50:00	01:54:54:00	THAT THE THE GENERAL PROCESS
01:54:54:00	01:54:58:00	HERE IS THAT PEOPLE DO NEED TO
01:54:58:00	01:54:58:00	GO THROUGH THEIR SCHOOL
01:54:58:00	01:54:58:00	LIAISON.
01:54:58:00	01:55:02:00	WE UNDERSTAND THAT THAT MAY BE
01:55:02:00	01:55:02:00	DIFFERENT MAYBE A SLIGHTLY
01:55:02:00	01:55:03:00	DIFFERENT ROLE AT DIFFERENT
01:55:03:00	01:55:06:00	SCHOOLS IN TERMS DO THEY HAVE A
01:55:06:00	01:55:06:00	FAMILY LIAISON OR A
01:55:06:00	01:55:07:00	HOMELESSNESS LIAISON?
01:55:07:00	01:55:10:00	BUT THE INITIAL INTAKE WOULD BE
01:55:10:00	01:55:10:00	ON THE SCHOOL SIDE.
01:55:10:00	01:55:12:00	WE'RE THEN WORKING WITH FAMILY
01:55:12:00	01:55:16:00	AID IN NONPROFIT IN BOSTON AND
01:55:16:00	01:55:17:00	THAT INFORMATION PASSING
01:55:17:00	01:55:20:00	THROUGH VPS AND THE NONPROFIT
01:55:20:00	01:55:21:00	THEN COMES TO BE I DO KNOW THAT
01:55:21:00	01:55:24:00	WE HAVE I THINK SEVERAL HUNDRED
01:55:24:00	01:55:28:00	FOLKS IN THE QUEUE IN FACT I
01:55:28:00	01:55:29:00	AND WE CAN GET YOU A BETTER
01:55:29:00	01:55:32:00	STATUS UPDATE OF SORT WHERE YOU

01:55:32:00	01:55:33:00	WHAT'S THE ADDITIONAL VOUCHER
01:55:33:00	01:55:36:00	ABILITY.
01:55:36:00	01:55:37:00	PART OF THE INCREASE IN THE
01:55:37:00	01:55:37:00	CITY FUNDED VOUCHER IS TO
01:55:37:00	01:55:39:00	CONTINUE MAKING REFERRALS
01:55:39:00	01:55:39:00	THERE.
01:55:39:00	01:55:40:00	BUT I UNDERSTAND IT'S NOT JUST
01:55:40:00	01:55:43:00	TO THE QUESTION IS NOT AND THE
01:55:43:00	01:55:44:00	THE CONCERN IS NOT JUST A
01:55:44:00	01:55:46:00	SUPPLY OF VOUCHER
01:55:46:00	01:55:47:00	AFFORDABILITY.
01:55:47:00	01:55:48:00	IT'S WHAT'S THE PROCESS AND HOW
01:55:48:00	01:55:51:00	DO WE GET PEOPLE IN THAT MY MY
01:55:51:00	01:55:55:00	BRIEF RESPONSE HERE IS I THINK
01:55:55:00	01:55:58:00	WE NEED TO TALK A LITTLE BIT
01:55:58:00	01:55:59:00	MORE WITH PEOPLE IN TERMS
01:55:59:00	01:56:00:00	OF HOW DO WE MAKE SURE THAT
01:56:00:00	01:56:02:00	INFORMATION IS DISSEMINATED?
01:56:02:00	01:56:03:00	IT IS DISSEMINATED CLEARLY BUT
01:56:03:00	01:56:07:00	ALSO THAT WE'RE NOT
01:56:07:00	01:56:08:00	OVERPROMISING WHAT WE CAN
01:56:08:00	01:56:10:00	COMMIT ON BECAUSE IT'S THERE IS
01:56:10:00	01:56:11:00	A LIMIT OF VOUCHERS BUT ON THE
01:56:11:00	01:56:14:00	ONE HAND AND ON THE OTHER HAND
01:56:14:00	01:56:15:00	THE QUEUE THERE IS MUCH IT'S A
01:56:15:00	01:56:18:00	MUCH SHORTER WAIT LIST THAN OUR
01:56:18:00	01:56:21:00	PUBLIC HOUSING WAIT LIST RIGHT
01:56:21:00	01:56:22:00	.
01:56:22:00	01:56:23:00	ONE THING I ALSO WANTED TO
01:56:23:00	01:56:25:00	MENTION IS THAT WE DO HAVE A
01:56:25:00	01:56:26:00	SEPARATE PARTNERSHIP ON THE
01:56:26:00	01:56:29:00	PUBLIC HOUSING SIDE WITH HIGHER
01:56:29:00	01:56:30:00	GROUND, A NONPROFIT HERE THAT
01:56:30:00	01:56:30:00	WORKS WITH HOMELESS FAMILIES IN
01:56:30:00	01:56:33:00	SEVEN BAPS SCHOOLS.
01:56:33:00	01:56:34:00	SO WE ARE WORKING ON BOTH ENDS
01:56:34:00	01:56:37:00	OF THAT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE
01:56:37:00	01:56:37:00	CAN REALLY AND FAMILY
01:56:37:00	01:56:40:00	HOMELESSNESS AND TO ENSURE
01:56:40:00	01:56:41:00	STUDENTS AREN'T LIVING IN
01:56:41:00	01:56:41:00	OVERCROWDED CONDITIONS.
01:56:41:00	01:56:45:00	I I THINK IT IS AN AMAZING
01:56:45:00	01:56:46:00	SUCCESS STORY EACH AND EVERY
01:56:46:00	01:56:48:00	TIME AND I ALSO THINK IT'S A
01:56:48:00	01:56:49:00	WORK IN PROGRESS ON THE
01:56:49:00	01:56:49:00	COMMUNICATION CHANNELS.
01:56:49:00	01:56:50:00	YEAH, THANK YOU FOR THAT.
01:56:50:00	01:56:53:00	YEAH I WILL SAY YOU KNOW, I'VE
01:56:53:00	01:56:53:00	BEEN WORKING WITH SOME FAMILIES
01:56:53:00	01:56:54:00	WHO ARE LIVING IN SHELTER RIGHT
01:56:54:00	01:56:56:00	NOW.
01:56:56:00	01:56:57:00	THERE'S ONE THERE'S TWO
01:56:57:00	01:56:57:00	PARTICULAR FAMILIES THAT HAVE
01:56:57:00	01:57:00:00	BEEN IN SHELTER NOW FOR A YEAR
01:57:00:00	01:57:04:00	OVER A YEAR WHO ARE PARENTS AND
01:57:04:00	01:57:05:00	I THINK SOME OF THE CONCERNS
01:57:05:00	01:57:08:00	ALSO IS THE LANGUAGE BARRIER
01:57:08:00	01:57:09:00	AND ACCESS TO INFORMATION.
01:57:09:00	01:57:10:00	SO I THINK THAT THERE'S SOME
01:57:10:00	01:57:10:00	MORE WORK THAT WE COULD BE
01:57:10:00	01:57:12:00	DOING THERE IN TERMS OF JUST
01:57:12:00	01:57:13:00	MAKING SURE THAT INFORMATION IS
01:57:13:00	01:57:16:00	REACHING PEOPLE IN MULTIPLE
01:57:16:00	01:57:17:00	LANGUAGES BECAUSE THERE IS
01:57:17:00	01:57:17:00	SOMETHING THAT'S STRUCTURAL
01:57:17:00	01:57:20:00	STRUCTURALLY DIFFICULT.
01:57:20:00	01:57:21:00	AND THEN I WANT TO ADD ONE
01:57:21:00	01:57:22:00	MORE.
01:57:22:00	01:57:24:00	THERE IS A FAMILY THAT WE'VE
01:57:24:00	01:57:25:00	BEEN WORKING WITH AND THERE ARE
01:57:25:00	01:57:28:00	UNDOCUMENTED AND SO THROUGH OUR
01:57:28:00	01:57:29:00	ADVOCACY WHAT WE HAVE LEARNED
01:57:29:00	01:57:30:00	IS THAT IF THERE IS AT LEAST
01:57:30:00	01:57:32:00	ONE PERSON IN THE HOUSEHOLD
01:57:32:00	01:57:35:00	THAT IS A RESIDENT, YOU KNOW, A
01:57:35:00	01:57:36:00	LEGAL RESIDENT THAT THEY CAN
01:57:36:00	01:57:39:00	APPLY THROUGH THAT CHANNEL EVEN
01:57:39:00	01:57:40:00	THOUGH THE PARENT MAY BE
01:57:40:00	01:57:40:00	UNDOCUMENTED.
01:57:40:00	01:57:44:00	SO THERE'S EVEN INFORMATION
01:57:44:00	01:57:44:00	BECAUSE I ALWAYS SAY
01:57:44:00	01:57:47:00	INFORMATION IS CASH AND SO IF
01:57:47:00	01:57:48:00	YOU HAVE IT YOU'RE GOING TO BE
01:57:48:00	01:57:48:00	OK AND IF YOU DON'T YOU'RE
01:57:48:00	01:57:51:00	GOING TO BE STRUGGLING TO MAKE
01:57:51:00	01:57:51:00	ENDS MEET.
01:57:51:00	01:57:54:00	SO THIS WAS AN ADDITIONAL LAYER
01:57:54:00	01:57:55:00	OF INFORMATION THAT IS NOT OUT
01:57:55:00	01:57:58:00	OUT IN THE COMMUNITY THAT EVEN
01:57:58:00	01:57:59:00	THOUGH THE PARENTS ARE
01:57:59:00	01:58:00:00	UNDOCUMENTED, IF THE CHILD WAS
01:58:00:00	01:58:03:00	BORN HERE THEY ARE ELIGIBLE TO
01:58:03:00	01:58:03:00	DO THAT.
01:58:03:00	01:58:04:00	SO I JUST THINK THAT AS WE
01:58:04:00	01:58:06:00	START THINKING ABOUT
01:58:06:00	01:58:07:00	COMMUNICATION AND OR AT LEAST
01:58:07:00	01:58:08:00	THAT'S WHAT I HEARD I DON'T
01:58:08:00	01:58:11:00	KNOW IF THAT'S TRUE BUT THAT'S
01:58:11:00	01:58:11:00	WHAT I HEARD.
01:58:11:00	01:58:12:00	CAN YOU CONFIRM YES OR NO?
01:58:12:00	01:58:14:00	WHAT I WOULD SAY IS THAT SO FOR
01:58:14:00	01:58:15:00	BOTH OF OUR CITY FUNDED IN OUR
01:58:15:00	01:58:18:00	STATE FUNDED RESOURCES.
01:58:18:00	01:58:18:00	RIGHT.
01:58:18:00	01:58:19:00	SO THAT'S GOING TO INCLUDE
01:58:19:00	01:58:22:00	MUNICIPAL VOUCHERS, STATE
01:58:22:00	01:58:22:00	VOUCHERS AND STATE PUBLIC
01:58:22:00	01:58:22:00	HOUSING.
01:58:22:00	01:58:26:00	WE DON'T DISCRIMINATE BASED ON
01:58:26:00	01:58:29:00	NATIONAL ORIGIN OR RESIDENCE
01:58:29:00	01:58:30:00	NOR DO WE PRORATE THE RENT.
01:58:30:00	01:58:31:00	RIGHT.
01:58:31:00	01:58:34:00	SO THAT MEANS FOR FOLKS WHO
01:58:34:00	01:58:37:00	HAVE MIXED STATUS OR OR WHO ARE
01:58:37:00	01:58:41:00	OR MAY NOT HAVE LEGAL RESIDENCY
01:58:41:00	01:58:42:00	, WE ARE STILL ABLE TO OFFER
01:58:42:00	01:58:43:00	THEM HOUSING IS HUMAN BEINGS
01:58:43:00	01:58:45:00	BUT THAT'S THE QUESTION THE
01:58:45:00	01:58:46:00	QUESTION THAT I'M THAT THAT
01:58:46:00	01:58:48:00	THAT HAS BUBBLED UP TO THE TOP
01:58:48:00	01:58:49:00	BECAUSE AS A FEDERAL YOU KNOW,
01:58:49:00	01:58:53:00	LIKE IT'S A FEDERAL PROGRAM BUT
01:58:53:00	01:58:54:00	THERE IS SOME DISCREPANCY OR AT
01:58:54:00	01:58:54:00	LEAST THAT'S WHAT COMMUNITIES
01:58:54:00	01:58:56:00	WHO ARE UNDER DOCUMENTED ARE
01:58:56:00	01:58:57:00	UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT THEY
01:58:57:00	01:59:01:00	DON'T QUALIFY FOR FORFEND REAL
01:59:01:00	01:59:02:00	HOUSING PROGRAMS, NOT FOR OTHER
01:59:02:00	01:59:02:00	PROGRAMS.
01:59:02:00	01:59:05:00	WE WE ARE BLESSED TO HAVE
01:59:05:00	01:59:06:00	SUPPORT FROM MULTIPLE PARTNERS
01:59:06:00	01:59:09:00	IN ADMINISTERING RESOURCES AND
01:59:09:00	01:59:10:00	SO FOR FEDERAL SECTION EIGHT OR
01:59:10:00	01:59:13:00	FEDERAL PUBLIC HOUSING,
01:59:13:00	01:59:13:00	UNFORTUNATELY THE GOVERNMENT
01:59:13:00	01:59:16:00	THAT YOU KNOW CONGRESS AND HOW
01:59:16:00	01:59:20:00	IT MADE THAT DECISION BUT AND
01:59:20:00	01:59:21:00	AGAIN THAT THAT EXTENDS TO IF
01:59:21:00	01:59:22:00	SOMEONE HAS A MIXED STATUS
01:59:22:00	01:59:24:00	HOUSEHOLD, A FEDERAL PUBLIC
01:59:24:00	01:59:25:00	HOUSING, THEIR RENT IS
01:59:25:00	01:59:25:00	PRORATED.
01:59:25:00	01:59:28:00	THAT'S NOT THE CASE IN STATE
01:59:28:00	01:59:29:00	STATE PROGRAMS OR IN THIS CASE
01:59:29:00	01:59:32:00	MUNICIPAL.
01:59:32:00	01:59:33:00	WE DON'T FEEL THE NEED TO
01:59:33:00	01:59:33:00	SCREEN OR DISCRIMINATE AGAINST
01:59:33:00	01:59:36:00	PEOPLE BASED ON THAT AND WITH
01:59:36:00	01:59:37:00	THE FEDERAL REGULATIONS WE
01:59:37:00	01:59:39:00	DON'T HAVE AN OPTION.
01:59:39:00	01:59:40:00	I HOPE THE FOLKS WHO ARE
01:59:40:00	01:59:41:00	LISTENING KNOW THAT BECAUSE
01:59:41:00	01:59:43:00	THIS WAS A POINT OF CONTENTION
01:59:43:00	01:59:44:00	FOR A LOT OF FAMILIES WHO ARE
01:59:44:00	01:59:45:00	UNDOCUMENTED THEY WERE UNCLEAR
01:59:45:00	01:59:48:00	ABOUT WHAT THEY CAN OR CANNOT
01:59:48:00	01:59:51:00	QUALIFY FOR AND SO THERE WAS
01:59:51:00	01:59:52:00	SOMEBODY WHO WAS A HOUSING
01:59:52:00	01:59:52:00	SPECIALIST.
01:59:52:00	01:59:53:00	I CAME TO MEET WITH SOME
01:59:53:00	01:59:55:00	OF THESE FAMILIES AND THEY SAID
01:59:55:00	01:59:56:00	THAT YOU COULD STILL APPLY IF
01:59:56:00	01:59:59:00	IT WAS A LEGAL RESIDENT.
01:59:59:00	02:00:00:00	SO THAT WAS THE LOOPHOLE.
02:00:00:00	02:00:01:00	SO YEAH, I JUST WANT TO MAKE
02:00:01:00	02:00:02:00	SURE THAT WE'RE NOT PROVIDING
02:00:02:00	02:00:03:00	MISINFORMATION TO FAMILIES.
02:00:03:00	02:00:06:00	WHAT I SHOULD ACTUALLY ADD THAT
02:00:06:00	02:00:07:00	IT IS MORE NUANCED PARTICULARLY
02:00:07:00	02:00:08:00	GIVEN THE CURRENT SCENARIO I
02:00:08:00	02:00:11:00	DON'T I DON'T CLAIM TO BE I
02:00:11:00	02:00:12:00	DON'T I DON'T CLAIM TO BE
02:00:12:00	02:00:15:00	ANYTHING BUT I'M CERTAINLY NOT
02:00:15:00	02:00:15:00	AN IMMIGRATION ATTORNEY OR
02:00:15:00	02:00:18:00	HUMANITARIAN PAROLE ATTORNEY.
02:00:18:00	02:00:19:00	BUT WHAT I WOULD SAY IS THERE
02:00:19:00	02:00:22:00	ARE MULTIPLE LEGAL STATUSES
02:00:22:00	02:00:23:00	THAT WE DO ALLOW YOU TO QUALIFY
02:00:23:00	02:00:24:00	FOR FEDERAL PROGRAMS AND SO IN
02:00:24:00	02:00:26:00	THE CURRENT WAVE OF FOLKS
02:00:26:00	02:00:27:00	COMING TO THIS COUNTRY, SOME
02:00:27:00	02:00:28:00	OF THEM HAVE, YOU KNOW,
02:00:28:00	02:00:31:00	STATUSES THAT DO ALLOW YOU TO
02:00:31:00	02:00:33:00	ACCESS FEDERAL RESOURCES.
02:00:33:00	02:00:38:00	SO IT IS IT IS COMPLICATED AND
02:00:38:00	02:00:39:00	IT IS HARD TO GIVE OUT BLANKET
02:00:39:00	02:00:39:00	INFORMATION.
02:00:39:00	02:00:41:00	BUT SOME OF THE FOLKS FOR BOTH
02:00:41:00	02:00:42:00	ARE HERE ON HUMANITARIAN PAROLE
02:00:42:00	02:00:45:00	WOULD BE ELIGIBLE TO APPLY AND
02:00:45:00	02:00:46:00	THEN OUR FEDERAL THE OTHER
02:00:46:00	02:00:49:00	COMPLICATING FACTORS ARE
02:00:49:00	02:00:50:00	FEDERAL PROGRAMS OF THE LARGEST
02:00:50:00	02:00:51:00	AND THE PUBLIC HOUSING SIDE.
02:00:51:00	02:00:52:00	YOU KNOW, IT'S A WAITING LIST.
02:00:52:00	02:00:53:00	IT'S OPEN.
02:00:53:00	02:00:54:00	YOU CAN APPLY SOME OF THE OTHER
02:00:54:00	02:00:56:00	PROGRAMS ARE TARGETED AND HAVE
02:00:56:00	02:00:57:00	A MORE CLOSED ENTRY SYSTEM AND
02:00:57:00	02:01:00:00	REFERRAL BASED.
02:01:00:00	02:01:01:00	SO IT'S IT IS IMPORTANT THAT
02:01:01:00	02:01:04:00	INFORMATION IS DISTRIBUTED AND
02:01:04:00	02:01:06:00	I THINK PEOPLE NEED TO KNOW HOW
02:01:06:00	02:01:08:00	TO GO TO THE RIGHT CHANNELS.
02:01:08:00	02:01:09:00	SO GOING BACK TO THE VPS
02:01:09:00	02:01:11:00	PROGRAM AND I WANT TO ACTUALLY
02:01:11:00	02:01:12:00	THINK JUST UNDERSTANDING THAT
02:01:12:00	02:01:16:00	THE CONCERNS THAT YOU RAISED
02:01:16:00	02:01:17:00	AND THAT I'VE HEARD RECENTLY I
02:01:17:00	02:01:20:00	WANT TO THANK BRIAN MARKS AND
02:01:20:00	02:01:21:00	JOHN HARRIS AND ALL THE
02:01:21:00	02:01:21:00	INCREDIBLE BBS'S TEAM FOR JUST
02:01:21:00	02:01:23:00	AGAIN BECAUSE EVERY FAMILY
02:01:23:00	02:01:24:00	THAT'S BEEN HOUSED IT'S LIKE A
02:01:24:00	02:01:26:00	LIFE CHANGING EXPERIENCE FOR
02:01:26:00	02:01:27:00	SOME OF THE PROGRAMS THAT ARE
02:01:27:00	02:01:28:00	NOT JUST OPEN APPLICATION LIKE
02:01:28:00	02:01:31:00	THAT BECAUSE YOU DO NEED TO GO
02:01:31:00	02:01:32:00	THROUGH SOME SORT OF SCHOOL
02:01:32:00	02:01:32:00	SITE EMPLOYEE.
02:01:32:00	02:01:35:00	I THINK THAT WE NEED TO THINK
02:01:35:00	02:01:36:00	ABOUT A WAY TO DISTRIBUTE
02:01:36:00	02:01:37:00	INFORMATION THAT IS FAIR AND
02:01:37:00	02:01:38:00	EQUITABLE BUT ALSO DOESN'T
02:01:38:00	02:01:43:00	DOESN'T GO BEYOND WHAT WHERE
02:01:43:00	02:01:44:00	WHO IS ELIGIBLE TO IT OR CREATE
02:01:44:00	02:01:47:00	CONFUSION.
02:01:47:00	02:01:48:00	AND MY TIME HAS BEEN UP SO I
02:01:48:00	02:01:49:00	WANT TO BE RESPECTFUL JUST
02:01:49:00	02:01:51:00	BECAUSE A CHAIR IS NOT HE
02:01:51:00	02:01:52:00	DOESN'T MEAN THAT WE CAN RUN
02:01:52:00	02:01:53:00	AROUND IN A BOOK WHILE SO I'M
02:01:53:00	02:01:54:00	GOING TO STOP WITH MY QUESTIONS
02:01:54:00	02:01:55:00	AND I KNOW THAT MY
02:01:55:00	02:01:58:00	COUNCIL COLLEAGUE CANCELLARA IS
02:01:58:00	02:01:58:00	UP NEXT.
02:01:58:00	02:01:59:00	THANK YOU.
02:01:59:00	02:02:00:00	I'LL WAIT FOR MY SECOND ROUND.
02:02:00:00	02:02:02:00	THANK YOU COUNCILOR COUNCILOR
02:02:02:00	02:02:03:00	FERNANDA ANDERSON, THE CHAIR
02:02:03:00	02:02:06:00	OF THE COMMITTEE HAD TO TAKE A
02:02:06:00	02:02:07:00	QUICK BREAK.
02:02:07:00	02:02:08:00	SO IT IS MY TURN SO I'LL ASK MY
02:02:08:00	02:02:09:00	QUESTIONS AND I'M GOING TO MAKE
02:02:09:00	02:02:10:00	SURE TO TIE MYSELF TO HER.
02:02:10:00	02:02:14:00	SO THANK YOU ALL FOR ALL
02:02:14:00	02:02:15:00	OF YOUR WORK.
02:02:15:00	02:02:16:00	I MEAN WE HAVE AS THE HOUSING
02:02:16:00	02:02:18:00	CHAIR ON THE CITY COUNCIL I
02:02:18:00	02:02:19:00	HAVE COME INTO CONTACT WITH
02:02:19:00	02:02:20:00	MOST OF YOU AND I THINK I WANT
02:02:20:00	02:02:22:00	TO ECHO WHAT EVERYBODY IS
02:02:22:00	02:02:23:00	SAYING IN TERMS
02:02:23:00	02:02:23:00	OF RESPONSIVENESS JUST BEING
02:02:23:00	02:02:25:00	AVAILABLE.
02:02:25:00	02:02:26:00	I COULDN'T ASK FOR BETTER
02:02:26:00	02:02:29:00	PARTNERS WHEN IT COMES TO
02:02:29:00	02:02:30:00	REALLY HOUSING THE PEOPLE
02:02:30:00	02:02:33:00	OF THE CITY.
02:02:33:00	02:02:34:00	I HAVE A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS.
02:02:34:00	02:02:37:00	I'M GOING TO START WITH ONE
02:02:37:00	02:02:41:00	OF THE BUDGET REQUEST THAT WE
02:02:41:00	02:02:41:00	MADE.
02:02:41:00	02:02:42:00	ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE'VE
02:02:42:00	02:02:43:00	SEEN WE HAD A HEARING HERE ON
02:02:43:00	02:02:44:00	THE BOSTON CITY COUNCIL .
02:02:44:00	02:02:44:00	IT WAS SPECIFICALLY ABOUT
02:02:44:00	02:02:45:00	HOUSING FOR MEMBERS OF THE
02:02:45:00	02:02:48:00	LGBTQ COMMUNITY AND ONE OF THE
02:02:48:00	02:02:49:00	THINGS THAT WE FOUND WAS THAT
02:02:49:00	02:02:50:00	WE HAD MULTIPLE ORGANIZATIONS
02:02:50:00	02:02:52:00	ALL ACROSS THE CITY WHO WERE
02:02:52:00	02:02:53:00	PROVIDING HOUSING FOR THIS
02:02:53:00	02:02:56:00	POPULATION ALREADY EITHER THEY
02:02:56:00	02:02:57:00	HAD HOMES ROOMS AND SO ON AND
02:02:57:00	02:03:00:00	SO FORTH.
02:03:00:00	02:03:01:00	AND MY HOPE WAS THAT WE WOULD
02:03:01:00	02:03:05:00	BE ABLE TO IN THE BUDGET MAYBE
02:03:05:00	02:03:06:00	CREATE SOME KIND OF LINE ITEM
02:03:06:00	02:03:09:00	THAT WOULD BE A GRANT RIGHT.
02:03:09:00	02:03:10:00	A GRANT LINE ITEM OR AN RFP
02:03:10:00	02:03:11:00	THAT WOULD GO OUT THAT WOULD
02:03:11:00	02:03:12:00	ALLOW THESE ORGANIZATIONS AND
02:03:12:00	02:03:15:00	THEY RUN THE GAMUT.
02:03:15:00	02:03:16:00	THERE WERE ORGANIZATIONS THAT
02:03:16:00	02:03:16:00	WERE PROVIDING HOUSING FOR
02:03:16:00	02:03:19:00	LGBTQ YOUTH WHO WERE HOMELESS.
02:03:19:00	02:03:20:00	THEY WERE ORGANIZATIONS THAT
02:03:20:00	02:03:21:00	WERE PROVIDING HOUSING FOR 
02:03:21:00	02:03:24:00	FOLKS WHO WERE COMING OUT
02:03:24:00	02:03:24:00	OF INCARCERATION.
02:03:24:00	02:03:25:00	THEY WERE ORGANIZATIONS THAT
02:03:25:00	02:03:27:00	WERE PROVIDING HOUSING FOR
02:03:27:00	02:03:28:00	LGBTQ SENIORS AND SO ON AND SO
02:03:28:00	02:03:28:00	FORTH.
02:03:28:00	02:03:29:00	RIGHT.
02:03:29:00	02:03:30:00	AND SO JUST ALL ACROSS THE
02:03:30:00	02:03:31:00	BOARD REALLY PROVIDING HOUSING
02:03:31:00	02:03:32:00	FOR MEMBERS OF THIS COMMUNITY
02:03:32:00	02:03:35:00	THAT ARE REALLY STRUGGLING.
02:03:35:00	02:03:35:00	AND ONE OF THE CONVERSATIONS
02:03:35:00	02:03:38:00	THAT WE HAD WAS PARTICULARLY
02:03:38:00	02:03:39:00	ABOUT RPA FUNDING BEING A
02:03:39:00	02:03:43:00	POSSIBLE USE FOR THAT RIGHT.
02:03:43:00	02:03:44:00	THAT IT'S NOT INCLUDED IN THE
02:03:44:00	02:03:44:00	OPERATING BUDGET AND SO THAT
02:03:44:00	02:03:45:00	THERE'S A POSSIBILITY TO USE
02:03:45:00	02:03:47:00	OUR FUNDING FOR THAT KIND
02:03:47:00	02:03:47:00	OF GRANT MAKING.
02:03:47:00	02:03:48:00	SO CAN YOU SHARE A LITTLE BIT
02:03:48:00	02:03:49:00	ABOUT HOW MUCH OF OUR FUNDING
02:03:49:00	02:03:51:00	IS STILL IN HOUSING AND HOW
02:03:51:00	02:03:52:00	MUCH OF IT COULD POSSIBLY BE
02:03:52:00	02:03:53:00	USED FOR LIKE A GRANT PROGRAM
02:03:53:00	02:03:54:00	ORGANIZATIONS THAT ARE BECAUSE
02:03:54:00	02:03:55:00	WE HAVE WE PROVIDE HOUSING
02:03:55:00	02:03:57:00	RIGHT.
02:03:57:00	02:03:58:00	WE'RE BUILDING IT.
02:03:58:00	02:03:59:00	WE'RE FUNDING IT.
02:03:59:00	02:03:59:00	WE'RE GIVING PEOPLE MONEY.
02:03:59:00	02:04:01:00	BUT THESE ORGANIZATIONS JUST
02:04:01:00	02:04:02:00	NEED SUPPORT FOR THE HOUSING
02:04:02:00	02:04:03:00	THAT THEY'RE ALREADY PROVIDING.
02:04:03:00	02:04:05:00	AND SO I THINK THAT, YOU KNOW,
02:04:05:00	02:04:06:00	IT'S GOING TO TAKE ALL OF US
02:04:06:00	02:04:09:00	LIKE IT'S LIKE AN ECOSYSTEM
02:04:09:00	02:04:10:00	OF PROVIDING HOUSING ACROSS THE
02:04:10:00	02:04:10:00	CITY.
02:04:10:00	02:04:11:00	AND SO I'M CURIOUS ABOUT WHERE

02:07:19:00	02:07:21:00	WHAT THE PROCESS WOULD BE FOR
02:07:21:00	02:07:22:00	MAKING THE DECISION.
02:07:22:00	02:07:23:00	AND SO WHEN I'M LOOKING AT THE
02:07:23:00	02:07:24:00	MAYOR'S OFFICE OF HOUSING, THIS
02:07:24:00	02:07:26:00	IS A PRIORITY, RIGHT?
02:07:26:00	02:07:27:00	WE HAD A HEARING ABOUT IT.
02:07:27:00	02:07:28:00	SO PART PART OF WHAT WE DID IN
02:07:28:00	02:07:30:00	OUR OFFICE IS WE RAN THIS
02:07:30:00	02:07:31:00	ENTIRE CAMPAIGN LAST JUNE WHEN
02:07:31:00	02:07:34:00	WE HEARD FROM LGBTQ PEOPLE ALL
02:07:34:00	02:07:35:00	ACROSS THE CITY ABOUT WHAT WHAT
02:07:35:00	02:07:37:00	WHAT WERE THE ISSUES THAT WERE
02:07:37:00	02:07:37:00	MOST SALIENT FOR THEIR
02:07:37:00	02:07:38:00	COMMUNITY.
02:07:38:00	02:07:39:00	THERE WERE SIX ISSUES THAT ROSE
02:07:39:00	02:07:41:00	TO THE TOP.
02:07:41:00	02:07:41:00	WE FILED SIX HEARING ORDERS,
02:07:41:00	02:07:42:00	HAD A HEARING ON EACH OF THOSE
02:07:42:00	02:07:43:00	ISSUES.
02:07:43:00	02:07:45:00	HOUSING IS ONE OF THEM.
02:07:45:00	02:07:46:00	AND SO GIVEN WHAT WE'VE HEARD
02:07:46:00	02:07:47:00	FROM OUR COMMUNITY MEMBERS,
02:07:47:00	02:07:49:00	THAT IS SOMETHING THAT I WANT
02:07:49:00	02:07:50:00	TO FOCUS ON AND IF WHAT IS THE
02:07:50:00	02:07:50:00	PROCESS TO MAKE THAT
02:07:50:00	02:07:53:00	CONSIDERATION WITH RPA BECAUSE
02:07:53:00	02:07:53:00	RIGHT.
02:07:53:00	02:07:54:00	I DON'T WANT TO MAKE AN
02:07:54:00	02:07:57:00	AMENDMENT TO THE OPERATING
02:07:57:00	02:07:58:00	BUDGET IF THE PROCESS FOR LIKE
02:07:58:00	02:08:00:00	MAKING THE BUCKETS ARE LARGE OR
02:08:00:00	02:08:00:00	NOT.
02:08:00:00	02:08:01:00	BUT WE CAN DO IT THROUGH RPA
02:08:01:00	02:08:02:00	AND WE CAN KIND OF COLLABORATE
02:08:02:00	02:08:04:00	ON GETTING OUT AN RFP OR
02:08:04:00	02:08:04:00	SOMETHING OF THAT SORT THEN.
02:08:04:00	02:08:06:00	SO I'M CURIOUS WHAT YOU WOULD
02:08:06:00	02:08:08:00	SUGGEST AND WOULD IN I WASN'T
02:08:08:00	02:08:09:00	AT THAT HEARING.
02:08:09:00	02:08:11:00	I DON'T HAVE STAFF WERE BUT WAS
02:08:11:00	02:08:14:00	IT I KNOW WE ARE DOING YOU KNOW
02:08:14:00	02:08:15:00	THE PRIDE CERTAINLY IN HYDE
02:08:15:00	02:08:16:00	PARK AND YOU KNOW CERTAINLY
02:08:16:00	02:08:19:00	GOING TO TEST THAT AS A
02:08:19:00	02:08:20:00	HOPEFULLY A GOOD MODEL FOR FOR
02:08:20:00	02:08:23:00	OUR SENIOR POPULATIONS.
02:08:23:00	02:08:24:00	BUT WHERE WERE THERE THINGS
02:08:24:00	02:08:24:00	THAT YOU HEARD, COUNCILOR ,
02:08:24:00	02:08:27:00	THAT IS MORE LIKE NEEDING RENT
02:08:27:00	02:08:28:00	ASSISTANCE OR WAS IT MORE LIKE
02:08:28:00	02:08:31:00	BRICKS AND MORTAR?
02:08:31:00	02:08:32:00	WE NEED DEVELOPMENT WHERE FOLKS
02:08:32:00	02:08:34:00	CAN LIVE TOGETHER OR SO FOLKS
02:08:34:00	02:08:35:00	ARE EXPERIENCING AN INCREDIBLE
02:08:35:00	02:08:38:00	AMOUNT OF DISCRIMINATION.
02:08:38:00	02:08:39:00	SO FOR BEING AT MULTIPLE
02:08:39:00	02:08:42:00	INTERSECTIONS BOTH THAT THEY
02:08:42:00	02:08:43:00	EITHER PREVIOUSLY INCARCERATED
02:08:43:00	02:08:47:00	AND ALSO WHERE OR BEING A YOUNG
02:08:47:00	02:08:50:00	PERSON AND ALSO  OR BEING TRANS
02:08:50:00	02:08:51:00	AND BEING DISCRIMINATED THE
02:08:51:00	02:08:54:00	IT'S MORE ABOUT THAT EVEN IF
02:08:54:00	02:08:55:00	THERE IS HOUSING THAT WHEN WE
02:08:55:00	02:08:56:00	TALK ABOUT MARGINALIZED
02:08:56:00	02:08:57:00	COMMUNITIES THERE ARE PEOPLE
02:08:57:00	02:08:58:00	WHO ARE FURTHEST OUT IN THE
02:08:58:00	02:08:59:00	MARGINS AND THAT THOSE PEOPLE
02:08:59:00	02:09:01:00	ARE EXPERIENCING A LEVEL
02:09:01:00	02:09:02:00	OF DISCRIMINATION THAT MAKES IT
02:09:02:00	02:09:03:00	UNTENABLE FOR THEM WITHOUT
02:09:03:00	02:09:05:00	SUPPORT IN WITHOUT SUPPORT.
02:09:05:00	02:09:07:00	AND WE SEE A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO
02:09:07:00	02:09:09:00	ARE GOING TO THE OFFICE AND
02:09:09:00	02:09:10:00	TRYING TO FIGHT THAT
02:09:10:00	02:09:10:00	DISCRIMINATION.
02:09:10:00	02:09:13:00	BUT THERE ARE ORGANIZATION WHO
02:09:13:00	02:09:14:00	ARE PROVIDING HOUSING THAT IS
02:09:14:00	02:09:18:00	SAFE, THAT IS TARGETED FOR 
02:09:18:00	02:09:21:00	FOLKS, THAT IS SAFE FOR THEM.
02:09:21:00	02:09:22:00	THEY ALREADY HAVE THEY OWN
02:09:22:00	02:09:23:00	MULTIPLE HOMES WHERE THEY
02:09:23:00	02:09:26:00	HOUSED PEOPLE OR THERE'S AN
02:09:26:00	02:09:26:00	ORGANIZATION LIKE BREAKTIME.
02:09:26:00	02:09:26:00	RIGHT.
02:09:26:00	02:09:28:00	THEY HAVE LIKE VERY SPECIFIC
02:09:28:00	02:09:29:00	THAT IS HOW MUCH IT COST US FOR
02:09:29:00	02:09:30:00	A BED FOR A YOUNG PERSON OR YOU
02:09:30:00	02:09:33:00	KNOW, THE PRIDE THEY CAME TO
02:09:33:00	02:09:33:00	TESTIFY AS WELL THE TRANS
02:09:33:00	02:09:36:00	EMERGENCY FUND WHERE THEY SO IT
02:09:36:00	02:09:37:00	WON'T NECESSARILY BE CAPITAL
02:09:37:00	02:09:40:00	FUNDING TO PURCHASE HOUSING BUT
02:09:40:00	02:09:41:00	FUNDING TO SUPPORT THE
02:09:41:00	02:09:42:00	ORGANIZATION THAT IS ALREADY
02:09:42:00	02:09:45:00	PROVIDING HOUSING ISIS TARGETED
02:09:45:00	02:09:45:00	SPECIFICALLY FOR LGBTQ PEOPLE.
02:09:45:00	02:09:48:00	AND SO IT DOESN'T IT DOESN'T
02:09:48:00	02:09:49:00	HAVE TO BE A LEVEL OF CAPITAL
02:09:49:00	02:09:52:00	INVESTMENT ALTHOUGH I'M SURE
02:09:52:00	02:09:53:00	THAT IF THESE ORGANIZATIONS
02:09:53:00	02:09:53:00	BECOME SUSTAINABLE.
02:09:53:00	02:09:54:00	RIGHT.
02:09:54:00	02:09:56:00	BECAUSE ONE OF THE ISSUES AND I
02:09:56:00	02:09:57:00	COME I COME FROM PHILANTHROPY
02:09:57:00	02:09:58:00	BEFORE I BECAME AN ELECTED
02:09:58:00	02:10:00:00	OFFICIAL IS THAT YOU KNOW, FOR
02:10:00:00	02:10:01:00	A DECADE WE HAVE BEEN BEATING
02:10:01:00	02:10:03:00	THE DRUM TO PHILANTHROPIC
02:10:03:00	02:10:04:00	ORGANIZATIONS THAT
02:10:04:00	02:10:04:00	ORGANIZATIONS NEED GENERAL
02:10:04:00	02:10:05:00	OPERATING SUPPORT.
02:10:05:00	02:10:08:00	YOU CAN'T JUST GIVE PEOPLE
02:10:08:00	02:10:08:00	PROGRAMMATIC MONEY.
02:10:08:00	02:10:09:00	THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING WITH
02:10:09:00	02:10:09:00	THAT.
02:10:09:00	02:10:11:00	AND SO WHAT WE FIND IS THAT
02:10:11:00	02:10:12:00	THESE ORGANIZATIONS ARE GETTING
02:10:12:00	02:10:14:00	A LOT OF PROGRAMMATIC SUPPORT,
02:10:14:00	02:10:15:00	NOT GETTING ANY GENERAL
02:10:15:00	02:10:16:00	OPERATING FUNDS AND THEN
02:10:16:00	02:10:16:00	THEY'RE COMPLETELY UNABLE TO
02:10:16:00	02:10:20:00	SCALE OR TO GROW.
02:10:20:00	02:10:21:00	AND SO WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR IS
02:10:21:00	02:10:22:00	WE HAVE NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS
02:10:22:00	02:10:23:00	THAT ARE TAKING IT UPON
02:10:23:00	02:10:27:00	THEMSELVES TO SERVE THE
02:10:27:00	02:10:27:00	POPULATION WHERE THAT WE ARE
02:10:27:00	02:10:30:00	NOT YOU KNOW, FOR FOR LACK
02:10:30:00	02:10:31:00	OF CAPACITY OR LACK OF YOU
02:10:31:00	02:10:32:00	KNOW, NOT FOR FOR LACK OF NOT
02:10:32:00	02:10:34:00	WANTING TO BUT THAT WE ARE NOT
02:10:34:00	02:10:35:00	NECESSARILY SERVING AND HOW CAN
02:10:35:00	02:10:38:00	THE CITY SUPPORT THEM IN
02:10:38:00	02:10:39:00	BRINGING THEIR WORK TO SCALE.
02:10:39:00	02:10:42:00	SO I MIGHT CORRECT WHAT I SAID
02:10:42:00	02:10:43:00	EARLIER THAN SOME OF THE RPA
02:10:43:00	02:10:43:00	BUCKETS ARE MORE AROUND
02:10:43:00	02:10:46:00	DEVELOPMENT OR RENTAL
02:10:46:00	02:10:47:00	ASSISTANCE OR EMERGENCY HOUSING
02:10:47:00	02:10:49:00	THAT KIND OF THOSE KIND OF LIKE

02:10:58:00	02:10:59:00	I I DON'T THINK THAT WE'VE GOT
02:10:59:00	02:11:02:00	ANY CATEGORY IS THAT OUR
02:11:02:00	02:11:03:00	GENERAL OPERATING SUPPORT FOR
02:11:03:00	02:11:05:00	NON-PROFITS OR THAT SO THAT IS
02:11:05:00	02:11:06:00	PROBABLY SOMETHING THAT WE
02:11:06:00	02:11:06:00	WOULD HAVE TO FIND A NEW

02:11:18:00	02:11:20:00	HAS ADDITIONAL FUNDING THAT
02:11:20:00	02:11:21:00	HASN'T YET BEEN ALLOCATED BUT
02:11:21:00	02:11:22:00	WE CAN ALSO DISCUSS THAT WITH
02:11:22:00	02:11:24:00	THEM AS WELL.

02:11:58:00	02:11:59:00	THERE SHOULD BE SOMETHING
02:11:59:00	02:11:59:00	OF THE SORT BECAUSE THERE ARE

02:12:52:00	02:12:52:00	THEN MISSING THE NEXT ONE.
02:12:52:00	02:12:55:00	MY APOLOGIES SO REALLY
02:12:55:00	02:12:56:00	INCREDIBLE PROJECT AND

02:13:01:00	02:13:03:00	DO TAKE SOME TIME I BELIEVE SO
02:13:03:00	02:13:04:00	THAT PROJECT IS IN DESIGN AND
02:13:04:00	02:13:07:00	WE'RE ACTUALLY DOING SOME
02:13:07:00	02:13:08:00	UPDATES TO THE DESIGN BASED ON
02:13:08:00	02:13:11:00	THE RECENT DIRECTION TO GO
02:13:11:00	02:13:11:00	FOSSIL FREE.
02:13:11:00	02:13:14:00	I THINK WE REALLY INCREDIBLE
02:13:14:00	02:13:15:00	OPPORTUNITY THERE TO TO DO IT
02:13:15:00	02:13:18:00	JUST NOT AS AN IMPROVEMENT BUT
02:13:18:00	02:13:21:00	A TRANSFORMATIVE SUSTAINABILITY
02:13:21:00	02:13:22:00	PROJECT ALONG WITH THE OTHER
02:13:22:00	02:13:23:00	UPGRADES IN TERMS OF THE
02:13:23:00	02:13:25:00	TIMELINE I THINK WE ARE LOOKING
02:13:25:00	02:13:28:00	AT LATER IN TWENTY TWENTY FOUR
02:13:28:00	02:13:29:00	FOR THE ACTUAL CONSTRUCTION
02:13:29:00	02:13:30:00	START THAT JUST INVOLVES
02:13:30:00	02:13:32:00	FINISHING THE DESIGN,
02:13:32:00	02:13:33:00	FINALIZING THE FINANCING PIECE
02:13:33:00	02:13:36:00	FROM OUR PARTNERS AND THEN YOU
02:13:36:00	02:13:37:00	KNOW THE THE BEAUTIFUL ABOUT
02:13:37:00	02:13:41:00	THE SHOVELS IN THE DIRT SO I
02:13:41:00	02:13:41:00	THINK THAT THAT'S WHAT WE'RE
02:13:41:00	02:13:42:00	LOOKING AT.
02:13:42:00	02:13:44:00	WE WILL HAVE CONTINUED I THINK

02:13:52:00	02:13:52:00	THANK YOU.
02:13:52:00	02:14:03:00	UM, I THINK THE OTHER ISSUE WAS
02:14:03:00	02:14:07:00	REALLY THINKING ABOUT THE
02:14:07:00	02:14:10:00	TURNAROUND WITH THE IDP UNITS
02:14:10:00	02:14:11:00	SHEILA UM MARKETING THEM
02:14:11:00	02:14:14:00	INITIALLY WHEN THEY FIRST COME
02:14:14:00	02:14:15:00	ON LINE IS IS IS IS WORKING I
02:14:15:00	02:14:18:00	THINK AND THEN WHEN THOSE UNITS
02:14:18:00	02:14:22:00	BECOME VACANT YOU KNOW I'VE
02:14:22:00	02:14:23:00	HEARD THAT SOMETIMES THEY TURN
02:14:23:00	02:14:26:00	AROUND, THEY REMAIN VACANT FOR
02:14:26:00	02:14:26:00	SOME TIME.
02:14:26:00	02:14:27:00	THAT'S MAYBE LONGER THAN THE
02:14:27:00	02:14:28:00	NEED BE.
02:14:28:00	02:14:30:00	SO THAT WE HAVE A WE HAVE A
02:14:30:00	02:14:34:00	HOUSING STOCK WHERE YOU KNOW,
02:14:34:00	02:14:35:00	IF THIS WAS A COMMERCIAL
02:14:35:00	02:14:35:00	PROPERTY WE'D BE TURNING AROUND
02:14:35:00	02:14:37:00	IN A COUPLE OF MONTHS AND WE'RE
02:14:37:00	02:14:38:00	WAITING FOR SIX MONTHS OR MAYBE
02:14:38:00	02:14:39:00	A YEAR TO GET PEOPLE BACK INTO
02:14:39:00	02:14:41:00	AN IDP UNIT.
02:14:41:00	02:14:42:00	SO CAN YOU GIVE ME SOME IDEA ON
02:14:42:00	02:14:43:00	WHERE WE ARE WITH THAT?
02:14:43:00	02:14:46:00	I CAN AND I WILL SAY GREAT
02:14:46:00	02:14:47:00	IMPROVEMENTS HAVE BEEN MADE AND
02:14:47:00	02:14:49:00	IT'S CERTAINLY STILL AN ONGOING
02:14:49:00	02:14:50:00	PROCESS AND BUT THE MAYOR IS
02:14:50:00	02:14:53:00	VERY INTERESTED IN THIS THIS
02:14:53:00	02:14:54:00	TOPIC AS WELL.
02:14:54:00	02:14:57:00	SO I CAN SAY THAT WE HAVE
02:14:57:00	02:14:58:00	CAUGHT UP ON ALL OF OUR
02:14:58:00	02:15:02:00	MARKETING PLANS AND LOTTERIES.
02:15:02:00	02:15:03:00	WE ADDED STAFF TO THE MAYOR'S
02:15:03:00	02:15:05:00	OFFICE OF HOUSING AND SO I FEEL
02:15:05:00	02:15:09:00	VERY GOOD ABOUT THAT RIGHT NOW
02:15:09:00	02:15:13:00	AFTER THERE'S A LOTTERY THEN
02:15:13:00	02:15:14:00	PEOPLE THAT ARE BUYING OR
02:15:14:00	02:15:15:00	RENTING A HOME, THEIR FILES GO
02:15:15:00	02:15:17:00	TO THE BPD AND THEN PPTA STARTS
02:15:17:00	02:15:18:00	DOING INCOME CERTIFICATIONS.
02:15:18:00	02:15:21:00	SO IT'S IT CAN BE SORT OF A
02:15:21:00	02:15:22:00	PROCESS WITH LOTS OF LOTS
02:15:22:00	02:15:25:00	OF PIECES AND LOTS OF PEOPLE

02:15:44:00	02:15:45:00	THROUGHOUT THE CITY.
02:15:45:00	02:15:48:00	AT THE SAME TIME THOUGH, HAVING
02:15:48:00	02:15:49:00	EXPECTATIONS AROUND HOW LONG
02:15:49:00	02:15:49:00	THINGS SHOULD TAKE.
02:15:49:00	02:15:51:00	SO WE'RE DOING A LOT OF MAPPING
02:15:51:00	02:15:52:00	AND WE'RE MAPPING WE'RE

02:16:03:00	02:16:04:00	AS WELL BECAUSE YOU KNOW FOLKS
02:16:04:00	02:16:05:00	ARE SAYING THAT IF YOU NEED A
02:16:05:00	02:16:08:00	RENTAL UNIT THEN YOU'RE BEING

02:19:20:00	02:19:21:00	OF CALLS FROM ELDERS ON A
02:19:21:00	02:19:23:00	NUMBER OF DIFFERENT FRONTS AND
02:19:23:00	02:19:24:00	I'M JUST GOING TO KIND OF GIVE
02:19:24:00	02:19:25:00	YOU A FEW THINGS THAT WE'VE
02:19:25:00	02:19:27:00	BEEN HEARING FROM SOME OF OUR
02:19:27:00	02:19:31:00	ELDERS WHO ARE IN AH ON FIXED
02:19:31:00	02:19:35:00	INCOMES BUT DO NOT MEET THE
02:19:35:00	02:19:40:00	INCOME GUIDELINES TO BE ABLE TO
02:19:40:00	02:19:43:00	GET SUPPORT BECAUSE THEY MIGHT
02:19:43:00	02:19:44:00	THEIR FIXED INCOME MIGHT BE A
02:19:44:00	02:19:47:00	LITTLE BIT HIGHER SO THEY DON'T
02:19:47:00	02:19:51:00	QUALIFY FOR SOME HOUSING, YOU
02:19:51:00	02:19:54:00	KNOW, SUPPORT.
02:19:54:00	02:19:56:00	SO I'M JUST CURIOUS KIND OF HOW
02:19:56:00	02:19:59:00	AND WHAT WE CAN BE DOING TO
02:19:59:00	02:20:02:00	KIND OF YOU KNOW, WRESTLE WITH
02:20:02:00	02:20:02:00	THAT.
02:20:02:00	02:20:03:00	YEAH, BECAUSE THE VAST MAJORITY
02:20:03:00	02:20:05:00	OF SENIORS THAT ARE HAVE
02:20:05:00	02:20:06:00	HOUSING ISSUES ARE ON VERY
02:20:06:00	02:20:08:00	FIXED INCOME RANGES, SOCIAL SSI
02:20:08:00	02:20:10:00	OR SDI SO BUT SENIORS THAT HAVE
02:20:10:00	02:20:14:00	ESPECIALLY GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES
02:20:14:00	02:20:15:00	YEAH THAT I MEAN THAT'S THAT'S
02:20:15:00	02:20:17:00	I THINK THAT MAY BE WHO YOU'RE
02:20:17:00	02:20:18:00	REFERRING TO OR THEY HAD
02:20:18:00	02:20:21:00	PENSIONS AS A PENSIONS OR NOT
02:20:21:00	02:20:22:00	THAT PENSIONS BY ANY MEANS BUT
02:20:22:00	02:20:25:00	HAS PUT THEM OVER THE INCOME
02:20:25:00	02:20:25:00	GUIDELINES.
02:20:25:00	02:20:29:00	I THINK IT'S A VERY, VERY GOOD
02:20:29:00	02:20:29:00	POINT.
02:20:29:00	02:20:30:00	MOST OF THE SENIOR PROJECTS
02:20:30:00	02:20:32:00	THAT WE THAT WE'RE WORKING ON
02:20:32:00	02:20:33:00	DO HAVE A RANGE OF INCOMES, THE
02:20:33:00	02:20:39:00	MAJORITY BEING INCOME
02:20:39:00	02:20:42:00	POPULATIONS BUT I WOULD LOVE IF
02:20:42:00	02:20:43:00	YOU HAVE EXAMPLES NOT RIGHT NOW
02:20:43:00	02:20:43:00	BUT LATER SO WE CAN START
02:20:43:00	02:20:46:00	REALLY THINKING AS WE DESIGN
02:20:46:00	02:20:49:00	NEW AFFORDABLE HOME FOR SENIOR
02:20:49:00	02:20:50:00	COMPLEXES THAT WERE BEING AWARE
02:20:50:00	02:20:51:00	THAT WE HAVE TO SET SOME
02:20:51:00	02:20:53:00	OF THOSE UNITS ASIDE.
02:20:53:00	02:20:54:00	YEAH, I DON'T WANT TO JUST
02:20:54:00	02:20:54:00	FOCUS ON DEVELOPMENT.
02:20:54:00	02:20:57:00	I WANT TO FOCUS ON ITS END.
02:20:57:00	02:20:57:00	RIGHT.
02:20:57:00	02:21:01:00	SO IT'S NOT JUST AROUND SENIOR
02:21:01:00	02:21:01:00	AFFORDABLE HOUSING.
02:21:01:00	02:21:02:00	I WANT TO TALK ABOUT SOME
02:21:02:00	02:21:05:00	OF THE SENIORS ON THEIR OWN
02:21:05:00	02:21:06:00	HOMES OR CAMPS AND WANT TO STAY
02:21:06:00	02:21:09:00	THERE BUT ARE HAVING A HARD
02:21:09:00	02:21:09:00	TIME WITH THEIR PROPERTY TAXES.
02:21:09:00	02:21:13:00	SO I KIND OF WANT TO LIKE BRING
02:21:13:00	02:21:13:00	THEM INTO THE CONVERSATION
02:21:13:00	02:21:16:00	BECAUSE THEY ARE STILL VERY
02:21:16:00	02:21:17:00	MUCH PART OF OUR COMMUNITIES
02:21:17:00	02:21:20:00	BUT THEY ARE FEELING THE CRUNCH
02:21:20:00	02:21:20:00	.
02:21:20:00	02:21:20:00	ABSOLUTELY.
02:21:20:00	02:21:21:00	AND YOU'RE RIGHT, UTILITY BILLS
02:21:21:00	02:21:22:00	ARE GONE UP.
02:21:22:00	02:21:25:00	TAXES ARE GONE UP, REPAIRS HAVE
02:21:25:00	02:21:25:00	GONE UP.
02:21:25:00	02:21:26:00	SO THOSE SENIORS SHOULD BE
02:21:26:00	02:21:28:00	USING A REPAIR PROGRAM.
02:21:28:00	02:21:29:00	SO THEY REALLY THEY REALLY
02:21:29:00	02:21:30:00	SHOULD BECAUSE THEY PROBABLY
02:21:30:00	02:21:32:00	DON'T HAVE A VERY LARGE STAKE.
02:21:32:00	02:21:35:00	YOU ALL WE ALL HAVE FILED THE
02:21:35:00	02:21:36:00	TRANSFER FEE HOME PETITION AND
02:21:36:00	02:21:39:00	WITHIN THAT IT PROVIDES MUCH
02:21:39:00	02:21:40:00	GREATER TAX RELIEF FOR OUR
02:21:40:00	02:21:44:00	SENIOR POPULATIONS.
02:21:44:00	02:21:45:00	IT WIDENS WHO'S ELIGIBLE AND IT
02:21:45:00	02:21:47:00	DOUBLES THE RELIEF THAT THEY
02:21:47:00	02:21:48:00	THAT THEY CAN RECEIVE.
02:21:48:00	02:21:49:00	SO WE NEED TO GET THAT PASSED
02:21:49:00	02:21:51:00	FOR SO MANY REASONS WITHOUT
02:21:51:00	02:21:52:00	STATE LEGISLATION WE CAN'T WE
02:21:52:00	02:21:56:00	CAN'T MAKE REDUCE THEIR TAX
02:21:56:00	02:21:59:00	BURDEN AND THEN ON UTILITIES
02:21:59:00	02:22:00:00	THEY SHOULD BE LOOKING TO
02:22:00:00	02:22:01:00	WINTERIZE AND GET MORE
02:22:01:00	02:22:04:00	EFFICIENT, YOU KNOW, HEATING
02:22:04:00	02:22:04:00	SYSTEMS, ET CETERA.
02:22:04:00	02:22:08:00	SO IT A LOT OF THESE SENIORS
02:22:08:00	02:22:08:00	DON'T HAVE MORTGAGES BUT THEY
02:22:08:00	02:22:11:00	BUT THEY DO HAVE VERY, VERY
02:22:11:00	02:22:12:00	HIGH CARRY COSTS SO THERE'S NO
02:22:12:00	02:22:15:00	PROPERTY TAX THERE'S NOT ONE
02:22:15:00	02:22:19:00	EASY ANSWER BUT PROPERTY TAXES
02:22:19:00	02:22:20:00	IS WHAT I HEAR THE MOST IS
02:22:20:00	02:22:21:00	SENIORS CANNOT AND OFTENTIMES
02:22:21:00	02:22:23:00	THEY SELL THEIR HOMES AND THEY
02:22:23:00	02:22:23:00	DON'T WANT TO BECAUSE THEY
02:22:23:00	02:22:26:00	CAN'T THEY CAN'T AFFORD.
02:22:26:00	02:22:27:00	SO WE REALLY HAVE TO HAVE THE
02:22:27:00	02:22:31:00	LEGISLATURE GIVE US THE TOOLS
02:22:31:00	02:22:32:00	THAT WE THAT WE NEED TO REDUCE
02:22:32:00	02:22:34:00	THEIR HOUSING THEIR THEIR TAX
02:22:34:00	02:22:35:00	BURDEN.
02:22:35:00	02:22:36:00	SO LET'S I'M GOING TO SAY ON
02:22:36:00	02:22:37:00	FOR SENIORS WHO ARE A LITTLE
02:22:37:00	02:22:41:00	BIT LONGER I'M ALSO CURIOUS YOU
02:22:41:00	02:22:42:00	KNOW, THERE ARE A LOT
02:22:42:00	02:22:43:00	OF SENIORS WHO ARE BEING TAKEN
02:22:43:00	02:22:45:00	ADVANTAGE OF .
02:22:45:00	02:22:46:00	THERE'S ONE IN PARTICULAR CASE
02:22:46:00	02:22:49:00	RIGHT NOW OF A SENIOR WHO HAD A
02:22:49:00	02:22:54:00	SUBCONTRACT WORK THAT WENT
02:22:54:00	02:22:54:00	WRONG.
02:22:54:00	02:22:57:00	AND SO I'M JUST CURIOUS WHAT
02:22:57:00	02:22:58:00	SUPPORTS ARE I MEAN MAYBE
02:22:58:00	02:23:01:00	STRONG AND YOU'RE DEPARTMENTS
02:23:01:00	02:23:05:00	ARE ABLE TO BE ABLE TO BETTER
02:23:05:00	02:23:06:00	SUPPORT OUR SENIORS WHO ARE
02:23:06:00	02:23:09:00	BEING TARGETED.
02:23:09:00	02:23:10:00	RIGHT.
02:23:10:00	02:23:13:00	SENIORS THAT NEED HOME REPAIR
02:23:13:00	02:23:14:00	OR THAT ARE GOING TO ENTER INTO
02:23:14:00	02:23:15:00	ANY KIND OF CONTRACT SHOULD
02:23:15:00	02:23:17:00	CALL THE OUR HOMEOWNER SERVICES
02:23:17:00	02:23:21:00	AND KAREN WAS JUST DOWN HERE
02:23:21:00	02:23:24:00	THE THE PROGRAMS ARE RICH.
02:23:24:00	02:23:28:00	WE'VE GOT WE CAN HELP ARRANGE
02:23:28:00	02:23:29:00	GOOD CONTRACTORS TO DO THE
02:23:29:00	02:23:29:00	WORK.
02:23:29:00	02:23:32:00	WE CAN HELP FUND THE WORK AND
02:23:32:00	02:23:33:00	THEN WE HAVE VERY TALENTED
02:23:33:00	02:23:37:00	HOUSING SPECIALISTS THAT CAN
02:23:37:00	02:23:37:00	REALLY OVERSEE THE
02:23:37:00	02:23:37:00	CONSTRUCTION.
02:23:37:00	02:23:41:00	SO BE AND AND JUST GIVE GOOD
02:23:41:00	02:23:41:00	ADVICE.
02:23:41:00	02:23:42:00	RIGHT.
02:23:42:00	02:23:44:00	SO EVEN IF SENIORS DON'T WANT
02:23:44:00	02:23:45:00	TO PARTAKE IN OUR PROGRAMS, IF
02:23:45:00	02:23:47:00	SENIORS ARE CALLING AND SAYING
02:23:47:00	02:23:49:00	WHAT SHOULD I DO AND HOW DO I
02:23:49:00	02:23:49:00	APPROACH THIS WILL BE GLAD TO
02:23:49:00	02:23:52:00	PROVIDE VERY, VERY GOOD ADVICE.
02:23:52:00	02:23:56:00	BUT THEY ARE IT'S A IT'S A GOOD
02:23:56:00	02:23:56:00	SIZED DEPARTMENT.
02:23:56:00	02:23:57:00	THERE'S RESOURCES THERE AND
02:23:57:00	02:24:00:00	THEY REALLY MAKE THEMSELVES
02:24:00:00	02:24:00:00	AVAILABLE.
02:24:00:00	02:24:03:00	THERE'S ALSO WE WORK WITH A
02:24:03:00	02:24:04:00	STABLE OF NONPROFITS, GOOD
02:24:04:00	02:24:07:00	NONPROFITS TO DO SMALL REPAIRS
02:24:07:00	02:24:07:00	.
02:24:07:00	02:24:08:00	I NEED GRAB BARS.
02:24:08:00	02:24:11:00	I NEED A NEW BANISTER.
02:24:11:00	02:24:12:00	I CAN'T GET MY AIR CONDITIONER
02:24:12:00	02:24:12:00	OUT OF MY HOUSE.
02:24:12:00	02:24:15:00	I'VE GOT A SMALL LEAK THAT MY
02:24:15:00	02:24:16:00	TILES COME LOOSE THOUGH SMALL
02:24:16:00	02:24:19:00	REPAIRS THAT PEOPLE CAN BE
02:24:19:00	02:24:20:00	TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF .
02:24:20:00	02:24:21:00	WE ALSO HAVE LIKE PROGRAMS FOR
02:24:21:00	02:24:23:00	THOSE SMALLER REPAIRS AS WELL.
02:24:23:00	02:24:24:00	OK, SO MY TIME I KNOW IT'S
02:24:24:00	02:24:25:00	GOING TO BE LIMITED.
02:24:25:00	02:24:26:00	I'M GOING ONE MORE QUESTION AND
02:24:26:00	02:24:30:00	THIS IS REALLY I'M GOING TO BE
02:24:30:00	02:24:34:00	FOCUSING ON RETURNING CITIZENS
02:24:34:00	02:24:34:00	AND OUR YOUNG PEOPLE.
02:24:34:00	02:24:38:00	NINETEEN TO 24 YEAR OLDS THAT
02:24:38:00	02:24:39:00	AGE BRACKET YOU'RE NOT LIVING
02:24:39:00	02:24:41:00	WITH YOUR PARENTS BUT MAYBE
02:24:41:00	02:24:42:00	YOU'RE TRANSITIONING OUT
02:24:42:00	02:24:46:00	OF THIS OR YOU'RE TRANSITIONING
02:24:46:00	02:24:46:00	OUT OF FOSTER CARE.
02:24:46:00	02:24:47:00	I'M CURIOUS IN TERMS OF HOUSING
02:24:47:00	02:24:49:00	SUPPORTS FOR POPULATIONS THAT
02:24:49:00	02:24:53:00	ARE NONTRADITIONAL RIGHT.
02:24:53:00	02:24:54:00	AND THIS IS WHERE I FEEL
02:24:54:00	02:24:57:00	BECOMES THE HARDEST IS BECAUSE
02:24:57:00	02:25:01:00	IF YOU ARE A YOUNG ADULTS THAT
02:25:01:00	02:25:02:00	YOU HAVE NO FAMILY TIES, WHAT
02:25:02:00	02:25:04:00	MORE CAN WE BE DOING TO
02:25:04:00	02:25:05:00	SUPPORT?
02:25:05:00	02:25:05:00	SURE.
02:25:05:00	02:25:09:00	AND IF IT'S IF IT'S OK, I MEAN
02:25:09:00	02:25:10:00	I'M GOING TO ASK LYLA TO COME
02:25:10:00	02:25:12:00	DOWN AGAIN BECAUSE WE HAVE BEEN
02:25:12:00	02:25:16:00	ABLE TO REDUCE THE PERCENTAGES
02:25:16:00	02:25:17:00	OF YOUNG ADULTS THAT ARE
02:25:17:00	02:25:20:00	HOMELESS OR UNSTABLE HOUSED.
02:25:20:00	02:25:21:00	THE NUMBERS HAVE BEEN PRETTY
02:25:21:00	02:25:24:00	JUST BY PUTTING RESOURCES AND
02:25:24:00	02:25:25:00	WORKING VERY, VERY INTENTLY
02:25:25:00	02:25:28:00	WITH OUR GOOD NONPROFITS.
02:25:28:00	02:25:32:00	GIVE AN OVERVIEW.
02:25:32:00	02:25:33:00	HEY COUNSELOR, THANK YOU FOR
02:25:33:00	02:25:36:00	YOUR QUESTION.
02:25:36:00	02:25:37:00	SO WHEN WE LOOK AT THE DATA
02:25:37:00	02:25:41:00	FROM I THINK IT WAS TWENTY
02:25:41:00	02:25:41:00	NINETEEN WE COUNTED THE NUMBER
02:25:41:00	02:25:42:00	OF YOUTH AND YOUNG ADULTS
02:25:42:00	02:25:44:00	EXPERIENCING LITERAL
02:25:44:00	02:25:44:00	HOMELESSNESS.
02:25:44:00	02:25:49:00	SO LIVING IN SHELTERS OR ON THE
02:25:49:00	02:25:51:00	STREET AND AFTER THIS THREE
02:25:51:00	02:25:52:00	YEAR STRATEGIC PLAN AND THE
02:25:52:00	02:25:55:00	DATA FROM LAST YEAR THERE WAS A
02:25:55:00	02:25:56:00	45 PERCENT REDUCTION.
02:25:56:00	02:25:57:00	SO WE'RE MAKING PROGRESS IS THE
02:25:57:00	02:26:00:00	REASON I SAY THAT IS WE'RE
02:26:00:00	02:26:00:00	MAKING PROGRESS BUT IT DOESN'T
02:26:00:00	02:26:03:00	MEAN THAT WE'VE FINISHED THE
02:26:03:00	02:26:04:00	JOB.
02:26:04:00	02:26:05:00	THERE'S STILL YOUTH AND YOUNG
02:26:05:00	02:26:05:00	ADULTS IN OUR CITY WHO ARE
02:26:05:00	02:26:07:00	EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS AND
02:26:07:00	02:26:08:00	PARTICULARLY THE POPULATION
02:26:08:00	02:26:11:00	YOU'RE MENTIONING IS AN
02:26:11:00	02:26:12:00	INCREDIBLY VULNERABLE
02:26:12:00	02:26:14:00	POPULATION WHO NOT ONLY ARE
02:26:14:00	02:26:15:00	RENTING HOUSING INSTABILITY OR
02:26:15:00	02:26:16:00	HOMELESSNESS BUT ALSO HAVE
02:26:16:00	02:26:19:00	OTHER BARRIERS TO STABILITY IN
02:26:19:00	02:26:19:00	HOUSING.
02:26:19:00	02:26:23:00	THE PRIMARY INTERVENTION THAT
02:26:23:00	02:26:23:00	WE'VE FUNDED FOR YOUTH AND
02:26:23:00	02:26:27:00	YOUNG ADULTS IS ON THE HOUSING
02:26:27:00	02:26:27:00	SIDE IS RAPID REHOUSING.
02:26:27:00	02:26:30:00	SO IT'S UP TO TWO YEARS
02:26:30:00	02:26:31:00	OF RENTAL ASSISTANCE PLUS SOME
02:26:31:00	02:26:31:00	STABILIZATION SUPPORT.
02:26:31:00	02:26:35:00	BUT I THINK WHAT WE'VE LEARNED
02:26:35:00	02:26:37:00	THROUGH THIS WORK IS THAT IT'S
02:26:37:00	02:26:38:00	NOT JUST ABOUT HOUSING, IT'S
02:26:38:00	02:26:39:00	ABOUT HOUSING AND OPPORTUNITY
02:26:39:00	02:26:42:00	AND I THINK THERE'S MORE WORK
02:26:42:00	02:26:43:00	WE NEED TO DO TO PARTNER ACROSS
02:26:43:00	02:26:46:00	SECTORS TO REALLY MAKE SURE
02:26:46:00	02:26:47:00	THAT WHEN WE ARE INTERVENING
02:26:47:00	02:26:49:00	WITH HOUSING WE'RE ALSO
02:26:49:00	02:26:50:00	INTERVENING WITH OPPORTUNITY SO
02:26:50:00	02:26:53:00	THAT YOUNG PEOPLE HAVE THE
02:26:53:00	02:26:54:00	FUTURE THAT THEY'RE TRYING TO
02:26:54:00	02:26:55:00	BUILD AND THAT LOOKS LIKE A LOT
02:26:55:00	02:26:58:00	OF DIFFERENT THINGS DEPENDING
02:26:58:00	02:26:59:00	DEPENDING ON THE YOUNG PEOPLE.
02:26:59:00	02:27:00:00	I'M NOT SURE I'M ANSWERING YOUR
02:27:00:00	02:27:01:00	QUESTION BUT YES YOU ARE AND
02:27:01:00	02:27:05:00	I'M REALLY HAPPY TO SEE THE THE
02:27:05:00	02:27:06:00	INVESTMENTS AND YOU KNOW, SOME
02:27:06:00	02:27:08:00	OF THE OUTCOMES I JUST WOULD
02:27:08:00	02:27:09:00	JUST NOTE FOR THE RECORD IS
02:27:09:00	02:27:10:00	THAT WHEN I THINK ABOUT 19 TO
02:27:10:00	02:27:13:00	24 YEAR OLDS WE HAVE TO THINK
02:27:13:00	02:27:14:00	ABOUT THEM HOLISTICALLY.
02:27:14:00	02:27:14:00	SO IT'S ABOUT WORKFORCE
02:27:14:00	02:27:17:00	DEVELOPMENT, ABOUT HOUSING.
02:27:17:00	02:27:18:00	IT'S ABOUT LOOKING AT THE
02:27:18:00	02:27:20:00	ENTIRE NEED AND THEN BEING ABLE
02:27:20:00	02:27:23:00	TO SUPPORT AND FUND SERVICES ON
02:27:23:00	02:27:25:00	BOTH ENDS BECAUSE I THINK THAT
02:27:25:00	02:27:25:00	THAT IS REALLY WHAT'S GOING TO
02:27:25:00	02:27:29:00	GET US TO WHERE WE NEED TO BE
02:27:29:00	02:27:29:00	IN TERMS OF STABILITY.
02:27:29:00	02:27:30:00	SO I THINK THIS IS A QUESTION
02:27:30:00	02:27:32:00	FOR BOTH HOUSING AND ALSO
02:27:32:00	02:27:33:00	WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT AND THE
02:27:33:00	02:27:34:00	INTERSECTION OF THESE TWO FOR
02:27:34:00	02:27:36:00	THIS PARTICULAR AGE GROUP.
02:27:36:00	02:27:37:00	THANK YOU.
02:27:37:00	02:27:39:00	AND I HEARD MY MOTHER AND I DO
02:27:39:00	02:27:40:00	APPRECIATE ALL YOUR HARD WORK.
02:27:40:00	02:27:47:00	THANK YOU TO TURN OFF MY LIGHT
02:27:47:00	02:27:47:00	.
02:27:47:00	02:27:48:00	THANK YOU, COUNSELOR HERE
02:27:48:00	02:27:50:00	COUNSELOR LAURA, YOU HAVE THE
02:27:50:00	02:27:54:00	FOUR.
02:27:54:00	02:27:55:00	THANK YOU, MADAM CHAIR.
02:27:55:00	02:27:56:00	AND SO MY QUESTION MY NEXT
02:27:56:00	02:27:57:00	QUESTION IS ABOUT PARTICULARLY
02:27:57:00	02:28:01:00	THE FAIR HOUSING COMMISSION A
02:28:01:00	02:28:02:00	GOAL OF THE FAIR HOUSING
02:28:02:00	02:28:02:00	COMMISSION IS TO INCREASE
02:28:02:00	02:28:05:00	ACCESS TO HOUSING OPPORTUNITY
02:28:05:00	02:28:06:00	THROUGH ENFORCEMENT AND WE HAD
02:28:06:00	02:28:09:00	158 INTAKES THAT WERE PROCESSED
02:28:09:00	02:28:10:00	AND BY TWENTY THREE AND THE
02:28:10:00	02:28:12:00	TARGET NUMBER OF INTAKES FOR NY
02:28:12:00	02:28:13:00	TWENTY FOUR IS 400.
02:28:13:00	02:28:14:00	SO IS THERE ANY WAY FUNDING CAN
02:28:14:00	02:28:17:00	BE CONTRIBUTED TO THE INCREASE
02:28:17:00	02:28:18:00	IN INTAKES THAT YOU'RE HOPING
02:28:18:00	02:28:22:00	TO PROCESS?
02:28:22:00	02:28:23:00	THANKS FOR THE QUESTION.
02:28:23:00	02:28:26:00	SORRY .
02:28:26:00	02:28:27:00	THERE WE GO.
02:28:27:00	02:28:30:00	THANKS FOR THE QUESTION.
02:28:30:00	02:28:34:00	ONE OF THE THINGS I REALIZED
02:28:34:00	02:28:35:00	WHEN I CAME IN AS DIRECTOR WAS
02:28:35:00	02:28:37:00	THAT THE COMMISSION WAS
02:28:37:00	02:28:41:00	ADMINISTRATIVELY TOP HEAVY SO I
02:28:41:00	02:28:45:00	IN MY BUDGET REQUEST WANTED TO
02:28:45:00	02:28:49:00	SWITCH OUT TO POSITIONS AND THE
02:28:49:00	02:28:53:00	RESULT OF ALL THE MOVING
02:28:53:00	02:28:54:00	OF STAFF AROUND WAS TO CREATE
02:28:54:00	02:28:57:00	FOR SENIOR STAFF POSITIONS AND
02:28:57:00	02:29:01:00	TO TAKE OUR ADMINISTRATIVE
02:29:01:00	02:29:01:00	ASSISTANT POSITION.
02:29:01:00	02:29:04:00	THE PERSON WHO WOULD NORMALLY
02:29:04:00	02:29:05:00	WORK AT OUR FRONT DESK.
02:29:05:00	02:29:09:00	BUT BECAUSE WE DON'T GET A LOT
02:29:09:00	02:29:10:00	OF WALK INS, MOST OF THE
02:29:10:00	02:29:13:00	COMMUNIQUES AND BY PHONE BY
02:29:13:00	02:29:16:00	EMAIL I SAID WELL I WANT TO
02:29:16:00	02:29:19:00	CROSS TRAIN THAT PERSON TO ALSO
02:29:19:00	02:29:20:00	DO INTAKES.
02:29:20:00	02:29:24:00	SO WITH A STAFF OF FIVE DOING
02:29:24:00	02:29:27:00	INTAKE WE FIGURED WE COULD DO
02:29:27:00	02:29:28:00	MORE INTAKES IN THE COURSE
02:29:28:00	02:29:31:00	OF THE NEXT FISCAL YEAR.
02:29:31:00	02:29:36:00	NOW WHEN WE SAY INTAKES WE GET
02:29:36:00	02:29:39:00	CALLS ALL MANNER OF CALLS MUCH
02:29:39:00	02:29:40:00	LIKE CITY COUNCILORS DO AND WE
02:29:40:00	02:29:43:00	HAVE TO DISCERN WHICH CALLS
02:29:43:00	02:29:47:00	WHICH SITUATIONS ARE ACTUALLY
02:29:47:00	02:29:51:00	FAIR HOUSING ISSUES.
02:29:51:00	02:29:52:00	OFTENTIMES WE REFER THEM TO
02:29:52:00	02:29:55:00	OFFICE STABILIZATION OR OTHER
02:29:55:00	02:29:59:00	CITY OR STATE AGENCIES OR
02:29:59:00	02:29:59:00	SOMETIMES RECOMMEND THAT THEY
02:29:59:00	02:30:03:00	MAY HAVE A CAUSE OF ACTION IN
02:30:03:00	02:30:04:00	HOUSING COURT BECAUSE THEY'RE
02:30:04:00	02:30:07:00	NOT NECESSARILY FAIR HOUSING
02:30:07:00	02:30:07:00	ISSUES.
02:30:07:00	02:30:11:00	BUT WHEN THEY ARE THOSE THE
02:30:11:00	02:30:11:00	INTAKES THAT HAVE THEN BECOME
02:30:11:00	02:30:15:00	FAIR HOUSING COMPLAINT THAT WE
02:30:15:00	02:30:15:00	INVESTIGATE.
02:30:15:00	02:30:19:00	SO IT SOUNDS LIKE A LOT BUT WE
02:30:19:00	02:30:23:00	HAVE TO SIFT THROUGH ALL THAT
02:30:23:00	02:30:24:00	EVERY DAY TO GET TO THE REAL
02:30:24:00	02:30:24:00	KERNEL OF THE FAIR HOUSING
02:30:24:00	02:30:27:00	ISSUES THAT ARE PRESENT.
02:30:27:00	02:30:28:00	SO THE AMOUNT THE INCREASED
02:30:28:00	02:30:29:00	AMOUNT OF INTAKE IS BASED ON
02:30:29:00	02:30:31:00	THE RESTRUCTURE OF THE STAFFING
02:30:31:00	02:30:32:00	AND HOW MUCH YOU'RE EXPECTING
02:30:32:00	02:30:35:00	TO BE ABLE TO DO NOW THAT
02:30:35:00	02:30:35:00	YOU'VE RESTRUCTURED THE OFFICE.
02:30:35:00	02:30:36:00	OK, THANK YOU SO MUCH.
02:30:36:00	02:30:40:00	AND THE WHAT IS THE BUDGET FOR

02:30:55:00	02:30:56:00	OUR FUNDING THAT WAS ALLOCATED
02:30:56:00	02:30:58:00	FOR ALPAY.

02:31:18:00	02:31:19:00	IS THERE ANY PLAN FOR
02:31:19:00	02:31:22:00	SUSTAINABILITY AFTER OUR

02:32:45:00	02:32:46:00	BUDGET WE HAVE A GOAL OF FIVE
02:32:46:00	02:32:47:00	HUNDRED AND FORTY LOW INCOME
02:32:47:00	02:32:49:00	HOUSING UNITS IN FY TWENTY
02:32:49:00	02:32:50:00	THREE AND AS YOU KNOW WE'VE
02:32:50:00	02:32:51:00	BEEN DOING A LOT OF WORK WITH
02:32:51:00	02:32:53:00	THE HOUSING COMMITTEE TO REALLY
02:32:53:00	02:32:53:00	CHANGE THE INCLUSIONARY
02:32:53:00	02:32:54:00	DEVELOPMENT POLICY.
02:32:54:00	02:32:57:00	WE ALSO HAVE FIVE HUNDRED AND
02:32:57:00	02:32:58:00	FORTY UNITS THAT ARE THAT IS
02:32:58:00	02:33:00:00	OUR GOAL IN FY TWENTY FOUR THAT
02:33:00:00	02:33:00:00	INCLUDES OF RESTRICTED AND IDP
02:33:00:00	02:33:01:00	UNITS.
02:33:01:00	02:33:04:00	SO CAN YOU TELL ME HOW WE ARE
02:33:04:00	02:33:05:00	NOW THAT WE'RE GOING THROUGH
02:33:05:00	02:33:06:00	THE IDP PROCESS AND KIND
02:33:06:00	02:33:08:00	OF TRYING TO FIX THE POLICY?
02:33:08:00	02:33:09:00	WHAT ARE WE DEFINING AS
02:33:09:00	02:33:12:00	AFFORDABLE FOR THESE 514 UNITS?
02:33:12:00	02:33:13:00	RIGHT.
02:33:13:00	02:33:16:00	SO OUR GOAL NEXT YEAR IS A
02:33:16:00	02:33:16:00	THOUSAND DEED RESTRICTED UNITS
02:33:16:00	02:33:19:00	SO SO TWENTY FOUR IS A
02:33:19:00	02:33:20:00	THOUSAND.
02:33:20:00	02:33:20:00	YES.
02:33:20:00	02:33:23:00	OK, THANK YOU AND YOU'RE RIGHT
02:33:23:00	02:33:24:00	ABOUT SOME OF THAT WILL BE
02:33:24:00	02:33:27:00	INCLUSIONARY DEVELOPMENT AND A
02:33:27:00	02:33:28:00	LOT OF THAT WILL BE UNITS THAT
02:33:28:00	02:33:28:00	WERE FUNDING THROUGH
02:33:28:00	02:33:34:00	CONSTRUCTION AND AOP.
02:33:34:00	02:33:37:00	SO IF I HAD TO IF I HAD TO
02:33:37:00	02:33:41:00	PREDICT MOST OF THE IDP UNITS
02:33:41:00	02:33:42:00	THAT WILL PULL PERMITS NEXT
02:33:42:00	02:33:45:00	YEAR WILL BE UNITS WILL BE IN
02:33:45:00	02:33:46:00	DEVELOPMENTS THAT ARE UNDER THE
02:33:46:00	02:33:49:00	EXISTING POLICY.
02:33:49:00	02:33:50:00	OK, BECAUSE IT TAKES IT TAKES A
02:33:50:00	02:33:53:00	WHILE RIGHT?
02:33:53:00	02:33:57:00	PROBABLY IF WE PASS IDP'S THE
02:33:57:00	02:33:58:00	NEW CHANGES WOULD TAKE IN THEY
02:33:58:00	02:34:01:00	WOULD GO INTO EFFECT ON JANUARY
02:34:01:00	02:34:05:00	20 24.
02:34:05:00	02:34:06:00	SO I THINK PROBABLY THE UNITS
02:34:06:00	02:34:09:00	THAT WE'LL SEE THIS YEAR WILL
02:34:09:00	02:34:10:00	BE SO WE'RE LOOKING AT THAT
02:34:10:00	02:34:10:00	ONLY THE UNITS THAT ARE
02:34:10:00	02:34:13:00	APPROVED IN THE SECOND HALF
02:34:13:00	02:34:14:00	OF NY.
02:34:14:00	02:34:14:00	TWENTY FOUR I THINK THAT'S
02:34:14:00	02:34:15:00	RIGHT.
02:34:15:00	02:34:16:00	IMPACT OF THE NEW INCLUSION.
02:34:16:00	02:34:17:00	I THINK THAT'S RIGHT.
02:34:17:00	02:34:17:00	YES.
02:34:17:00	02:34:18:00	AND SO RIGHT NOW WE ARE STILL
02:34:18:00	02:34:21:00	WITH THE UNITS THAT ARE BEING
02:34:21:00	02:34:21:00	APPROVED BETWEEN NOW AND THEN.
02:34:21:00	02:34:22:00	WE ARE STILL DEFINING
02:34:22:00	02:34:25:00	AFFORDABILITY AS 70 80 PERCENT
02:34:25:00	02:34:25:00	OF THE ARMY.
02:34:25:00	02:34:26:00	THAT'S RIGHT.
02:34:26:00	02:34:28:00	THIRTEEN AT SEVENTY UNLESS IT'S
02:34:28:00	02:34:29:00	OFF SITE CORRECT AND CORRECT.
02:34:29:00	02:34:32:00	THIRTEEN THIRTEEN PERCENT AT

02:43:04:00	02:43:04:00	TESTIMONY.
02:43:04:00	02:43:08:00	HI MY NAME IS CALI'S I LIVE IN
02:43:08:00	02:43:09:00	DISTRICT SEVEN AS A YOUNG WOMAN
02:43:09:00	02:43:12:00	LIVING IN BOSTON I FIND IT
02:43:12:00	02:43:13:00	RIDICULOUS HOW THE HOUSING
02:43:13:00	02:43:16:00	CRISIS IS RIGHT NOW AND HOW
02:43:16:00	02:43:17:00	IT'S BEEN FOR A WHILE.
02:43:17:00	02:43:19:00	I MOVED HERE SIX YEARS AGO WHEN
02:43:19:00	02:43:20:00	I WAS NINE YEARS OLD AND
02:43:20:00	02:43:21:00	SHORTLY MY FAMILY BECAME
02:43:21:00	02:43:23:00	HOMELESS.
02:43:23:00	02:43:24:00	MY SITUATION WAS HORRIBLE.
02:43:24:00	02:43:28:00	MY FAMILY WAS PLACED IN A SMALL
02:43:28:00	02:43:28:00	MOTEL WITH TWO BEDS, A MINI
02:43:28:00	02:43:31:00	FRIDGE AND A MICROWAVE.
02:43:31:00	02:43:32:00	IT TOOK US MONTHS TO GET AN
02:43:32:00	02:43:33:00	APARTMENT AND THAT APARTMENT
02:43:33:00	02:43:35:00	WAS A SMALL APARTMENT WITH TWO
02:43:35:00	02:43:36:00	SMALL BEDROOMS THAT THE SIX
02:43:36:00	02:43:39:00	PEOPLE IN MY HOUSEHOLD HAD TO
02:43:39:00	02:43:40:00	SHARE AFTER THIS APARTMENT MY
02:43:40:00	02:43:44:00	MOTHER WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO WIN
02:43:44:00	02:43:44:00	A HOUSING LOTTERY WITH THREE
02:43:44:00	02:43:47:00	BEDROOMS NOW THERE ARE SEVEN
02:43:47:00	02:43:47:00	PEOPLE LIVING IN MY APARTMENT
02:43:47:00	02:43:48:00	AND WE ARE BARELY GETTING BY
02:43:48:00	02:43:51:00	WITH THE RIDICULOUS RENT, THE
02:43:51:00	02:43:52:00	MAINTENANCE ISSUES, THE LACK
02:43:52:00	02:43:55:00	OF SPACE AND OTHER PROBLEMS
02:43:55:00	02:43:55:00	WITH OUR APARTMENT.
02:43:55:00	02:43:58:00	I DEMAND THAT MAYOR WU AND THE
02:43:58:00	02:43:59:00	CITY COUNCILORS TEN MILLION
02:43:59:00	02:44:00:00	DOLLARS TO THE MAYOR'S PROPOSED
02:44:00:00	02:44:03:00	HOUSING BUDGET FOR BUILDING NEW
02:44:03:00	02:44:03:00	SENIOR AND FAMILY HOUSING THAT
02:44:03:00	02:44:06:00	IS GENUINELY AFFORDABLE,
02:44:06:00	02:44:07:00	SPACIOUS AND COMFORTABLE FOR
02:44:07:00	02:44:09:00	RESIDENTS TO LIVE IN.
02:44:09:00	02:44:10:00	WE SHOULDN'T HAVE HOUSELESS
02:44:10:00	02:44:13:00	PEOPLE PERIOD.
02:44:13:00	02:44:17:00	SECOND TESTIMONY.
02:44:17:00	02:44:18:00	HI MY NAME IS KHALEEL.

02:44:22:00	02:44:23:00	JUSTICE AND POWER UNION.
02:44:23:00	02:44:26:00	I DEMAND THAT MAYOR WU AND THE
02:44:26:00	02:44:27:00	CITY COUNCILORS TEN MILLION
02:44:27:00	02:44:29:00	DOLLARS THE MAYOR'S PROPOSED
02:44:29:00	02:44:30:00	HOUSING BUDGET FOR BUILDING NEW
02:44:30:00	02:44:31:00	SENIOR AND FAMILY HOUSING
02:44:31:00	02:44:33:00	THAT'S TRULY AFFORDABLE TRULY
02:44:33:00	02:44:34:00	AFFORDABLE HOUSING MEANS
02:44:34:00	02:44:38:00	HOUSING THAT IS AFFORDABLE TO
02:44:38:00	02:44:38:00	WHAT MOST BIPAC RENTERS MAKE
02:44:38:00	02:44:41:00	WHICH IS 30 PERCENT AM I THAT
02:44:41:00	02:44:41:00	MEANS INCLUDING PROJECT BASED
02:44:41:00	02:44:45:00	VOUCHERS WITH AT LEAST FIFTY
02:44:45:00	02:44:45:00	PERCENT OF THE UNITS SOME
02:44:45:00	02:44:48:00	OF THE TEN MILLION DOLLARS
02:44:48:00	02:44:49:00	COULD BE USED FOR COMMUNITY
02:44:49:00	02:44:50:00	VISIONING SO THAT RESIDENTS CAN
02:44:50:00	02:44:52:00	DECIDE WHAT THEY NEED TO GO
02:44:52:00	02:44:53:00	WITH THE NEW HOUSING.
02:44:53:00	02:44:54:00	IT'S SO IMPORTANT THAT
02:44:54:00	02:44:57:00	AFFORDABLE HOUSING GETS THE
02:44:57:00	02:44:57:00	MONEY IT NEEDS.
02:44:57:00	02:44:59:00	THE CITY SHOULD BE PRIORITIZING
02:44:59:00	02:45:00:00	COMMUNITY CARE FOR FAMILIES
02:45:00:00	02:45:03:00	OF COLOR ARE CONTINUOUSLY BEING
02:45:03:00	02:45:04:00	PUSHED OUT OF THEIR
02:45:04:00	02:45:04:00	NEIGHBORHOODS.
02:45:04:00	02:45:08:00	I KNOW FIRSTHAND AS A TEENAGER
02:45:08:00	02:45:09:00	MY FAMILY WAS UNABLE TO AFFORD
02:45:09:00	02:45:10:00	OUR HOME AND HAD TO JUMP FROM
02:45:10:00	02:45:12:00	SHELTER TO SHELTER, SPLIT APART
02:45:12:00	02:45:13:00	AND STAY A DIFFERENT FAMILY
02:45:13:00	02:45:16:00	MEMBERS HOUSES OR SLEEP IN OUR
02:45:16:00	02:45:16:00	CAR.
02:45:16:00	02:45:17:00	IT WAS SUCH A TRAUMATIC
02:45:17:00	02:45:20:00	EXPERIENCE TO NOT HAVE A
02:45:20:00	02:45:20:00	COMFORTABLE PLACE TO REST MY
02:45:20:00	02:45:21:00	HEAD AT NIGHT.
02:45:21:00	02:45:24:00	THIS IS NOT ABOUT WHAT MAKES
02:45:24:00	02:45:25:00	THE CITY THE MOST MONEY.
02:45:25:00	02:45:27:00	THIS IS NOT ABOUT POLITICS.
02:45:27:00	02:45:28:00	THIS IS ABOUT HOLDING SPACE FOR
02:45:28:00	02:45:28:00	PEOPLE GOING THROUGH TOUGH
02:45:28:00	02:45:31:00	TIMES.
02:45:31:00	02:45:32:00	IF YOU WANT TO MAKE THE CITY A
02:45:32:00	02:45:34:00	BETTER PLACE, A MORE PEACEFUL
02:45:34:00	02:45:36:00	PLACE, YOU WILL FIGHT TO BUILD
02:45:36:00	02:45:36:00	A NEW TRULY AFFORDABLE HOUSING
02:45:36:00	02:45:39:00	WHICH MEANS AT LEAST HAVING 50
02:45:39:00	02:45:40:00	PERCENT OF UNITS AT 30 PERCENT

02:46:01:00	02:46:01:00	INFORMATION.
02:46:01:00	02:46:05:00	THIS IS FROM A REPORT THAT THE
02:46:05:00	02:46:06:00	MAYOR'S OFFICE OF HOUSING

02:46:10:00	02:46:11:00	THIS IS MEDIAN HOUSEHOLD INCOME
02:46:11:00	02:46:13:00	BY RECENT ETHNICITY BROKEN DOWN

02:46:32:00	02:46:36:00	SIDE, ASIAN PACIFIC ISLANDER,

02:47:43:00	02:47:48:00	THANK YOU.
02:47:48:00	02:47:52:00	THIS IS ALSO A CHART FROM THE
02:47:52:00	02:47:53:00	SAME REPORT FROM THE CITY AND
02:47:53:00	02:47:53:00	THE MAYOR'S OFFICE OF HOUSING
02:47:53:00	02:47:55:00	THAT SHOWS WHO THE MOST RENT
02:47:55:00	02:47:59:00	BURDENED AND OUT OF THE RENTERS
02:47:59:00	02:48:00:00	WHO PAY MORE THAN 30 OR 50
02:48:00:00	02:48:03:00	PERCENT OF THEIR INCOME ON
02:48:03:00	02:48:03:00	HOUSING.
02:48:03:00	02:48:04:00	MOST OF THEM ARE MAKING LESS
02:48:04:00	02:48:07:00	THAN THIRTY PERCENT AM I SO YOU
02:48:07:00	02:48:08:00	CAN SEE THERE'S ACTUALLY FORTY
02:48:08:00	02:48:11:00	THREE THOUSAND FOUR HUNDRED
02:48:11:00	02:48:11:00	SEVENTY SEVEN HOUSEHOLDS AT
02:48:11:00	02:48:15:00	THAT INCOME LEVEL AND THE
02:48:15:00	02:48:16:00	NUMBERS GO DOWN AS YOU GO
02:48:16:00	02:48:16:00	HIGHER AND INCOME BECAUSE
02:48:16:00	02:48:18:00	THAT'S WHERE THE MOST NEED IS.
02:48:18:00	02:48:19:00	SO WHEN WE'RE TALKING ABOUT WHO
02:48:19:00	02:48:20:00	NEEDS THE MOST HOUSING AND WHO
02:48:20:00	02:48:22:00	SHOULD BE BUILDING OR WE NEED A
02:48:22:00	02:48:23:00	LOT MORE AT THE LOWER AMYAS AND
02:48:23:00	02:48:24:00	I KNOW CHIEF DYLAN WAS TALKING
02:48:24:00	02:48:26:00	BEFORE ABOUT TRYING TO FIND
02:48:26:00	02:48:27:00	THAT MIX BUT RIGHT NOW THE MIX
02:48:27:00	02:48:30:00	IS SKEWED TOO HIGH.
02:48:30:00	02:48:31:00	I THINK THERE'S ONLY THREE
02:48:31:00	02:48:31:00	PERCENT OF NEW HOUSING IS BEING
02:48:31:00	02:48:34:00	BUILT AT THAT LEVEL.
02:48:34:00	02:48:35:00	SO WE REALLY NEED TO GET THAT
02:48:35:00	02:48:36:00	DOWN BOTH IN THE IDP AND IN THE
02:48:36:00	02:48:38:00	CITY BUDGET.
02:48:38:00	02:48:49:00	AND THEN ONE FINAL CHART SO
02:48:49:00	02:48:50:00	MOST OF THE CBC'S USE WHAT'S
02:48:50:00	02:48:50:00	CALLED FEDERAL LOW INCOME
02:48:50:00	02:48:53:00	HOUSING TAX CREDITS WHICH IS 60
02:48:53:00	02:48:54:00	PERCENT AM I FOR A FAMILY
02:48:54:00	02:48:55:00	OF FOUR THAT'S EIGHTY FOUR
02:48:55:00	02:48:56:00	THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED EIGHTY
02:48:56:00	02:48:57:00	FOUR THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED
02:48:57:00	02:48:57:00	DOLLARS.
02:48:57:00	02:49:00:00	THE NEW PROPOSAL THAT THE MAYOR
02:49:00:00	02:49:01:00	PUT OUT DOES HAVE AN OPTION FOR
02:49:01:00	02:49:04:00	DEVELOPERS TO DO AN AVERAGE
02:49:04:00	02:49:05:00	OF FIFTY PERCENT AM I THAT
02:49:05:00	02:49:08:00	WOULD BE SEVENTY THOUSAND ONE
02:49:08:00	02:49:09:00	HUNDRED DOLLARS FOR A FAMILY
02:49:09:00	02:49:09:00	OF FOUR.
02:49:09:00	02:49:10:00	AS YOU CAN TELL, THOSE ARE BOTH
02:49:10:00	02:49:11:00	MORE THAN DOUBLE THE NUMBERS
02:49:11:00	02:49:12:00	THAT YOU JUST SAW FOR THE
02:49:12:00	02:49:15:00	TYPICAL INCOME'S FOR BUY BACK
02:49:15:00	02:49:16:00	RENTERS.
02:49:16:00	02:49:17:00	SO THERE'S TWO SOLUTIONS THAT
02:49:17:00	02:49:20:00	WE'RE PROPOSING.
02:49:20:00	02:49:21:00	ONE IS IN THE ACTUAL BUDGET TO
02:49:21:00	02:49:22:00	TEN MILLION DOLLARS ON TOP
02:49:22:00	02:49:23:00	OF THE MAYOR'S PROPOSAL.
02:49:23:00	02:49:24:00	I THINK IF I SAW RIGHT ON THE
02:49:24:00	02:49:27:00	SLIDES BEFORE IT SAID MAYBE
02:49:27:00	02:49:28:00	EIGHT MILLION DOLLARS WAS IN
02:49:28:00	02:49:29:00	THE OPERATING BUDGET FOR NEW
02:49:29:00	02:49:32:00	CONSTRUCTION AND THEN MAYBE
02:49:32:00	02:49:32:00	ANOTHER NINE MILLION FOR
02:49:32:00	02:49:33:00	SUPPORTIVE HOUSING AND
02:49:33:00	02:49:36:00	HOMELESSNESS.
02:49:36:00	02:49:37:00	SO UNDERSTANDING THAT THERE IS
02:49:37:00	02:49:38:00	ARPA MONEY AND FEDERAL MONEY
02:49:38:00	02:49:40:00	BUT REALLY NEED MORE CITY
02:49:40:00	02:49:41:00	OPERATING MONEY TO GO INTO
02:49:41:00	02:49:44:00	HOUSING AND THAT COULD BE FOR
02:49:44:00	02:49:44:00	HOUSING THAT SENIOR HOUSING OR
02:49:44:00	02:49:47:00	FAMILY HOUSING MAKING FOR HALF
02:49:47:00	02:49:48:00	THE UNITS ARE AT LEAST TWO
02:49:48:00	02:49:49:00	BEDROOMS ARE UP AND MAKING SURE
02:49:49:00	02:49:51:00	THAT HALF OF THOSE UNITS HAVE
02:49:51:00	02:49:52:00	PROJECT BASED VOUCHERS.
02:49:52:00	02:49:53:00	JOEL WAS PRESENTING A LITTLE
02:49:53:00	02:49:56:00	BIT OF INFORMATION ON THE CITY
02:49:56:00	02:49:56:00	OF BOSTON VOUCHER PROGRAM.
02:49:56:00	02:49:59:00	IT'S BEING UNDERUTILIZED BUT IF
02:49:59:00	02:50:00:00	WE COULD ENCOURAGE NONPROFITS
02:50:00:00	02:50:01:00	TO USE THEM FOR MORE OF THEIR
02:50:01:00	02:50:04:00	UNITS AND ATTACH MONEY TO
02:50:04:00	02:50:08:00	ENCOURAGE THEM TO APPLY FOR
02:50:08:00	02:50:08:00	THIS 10 MILLION BUT ALSO USE
02:50:08:00	02:50:09:00	THOSE VOUCHERS AND THEN ALSO
02:50:09:00	02:50:11:00	MAKING IT AFFORDABLE AT 40
02:50:11:00	02:50:12:00	PERCENT AM I FOR RENTALS NOT
02:50:12:00	02:50:15:00	JUST THE 50 AND 60 AM IN 50 TO
02:50:15:00	02:50:18:00	100 PERCENT IN FOR OWNERSHIP.
02:50:18:00	02:50:19:00	THANK YOU.
02:50:19:00	02:50:20:00	SO THOSE ARE THE PROPOSED
02:50:20:00	02:50:22:00	SOLUTIONS.
02:50:22:00	02:50:23:00	JUST TO GIVE A LITTLE MORE
02:50:23:00	02:50:26:00	CONTEXT, AS YOU ALL KNOW,
02:50:26:00	02:50:29:00	THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF US WHO'VE
02:50:29:00	02:50:30:00	COME TO THE HEARINGS ADVOCATING
02:50:30:00	02:50:31:00	ALSO FOR MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS
02:50:31:00	02:50:34:00	RESPONSE 40 MILLION DOLLARS FOR
02:50:34:00	02:50:34:00	PARTICIPATORY BUDGETING, SIX
02:50:34:00	02:50:37:00	MILLION FOR YOUTH JOBS, 40 FOR
02:50:37:00	02:50:37:00	PARTICIPATORY BUDGETING AND
02:50:37:00	02:50:38:00	KNOWING THAT THE POLICE BUDGET
02:50:38:00	02:50:41:00	IS GOING BY TEN MILLION DOLLARS
02:50:41:00	02:50:42:00	WHICH COINCIDENTALLY IS THE
02:50:42:00	02:50:43:00	AMOUNT OF MONEY WE'RE ASKING
02:50:43:00	02:50:45:00	FOR THE HOUSING INCREASE TO BE
02:50:45:00	02:50:49:00	SO REALLY NEEDING TO PRIORITIZE
02:50:49:00	02:50:50:00	COMMUNITY NEEDS AND NOT THE
02:50:50:00	02:50:55:00	POLICE BUDGET INCREASE.
02:50:55:00	02:50:56:00	SOME QUESTIONS I HAVE FOR THE
02:50:56:00	02:50:56:00	MAYOR'S OFFICE OF HOUSING
02:50:56:00	02:50:59:00	KNOWING THAT WE'RE NOT ALLOWED
02:50:59:00	02:51:00:00	TO ASK DIRECTLY BUT JUST
02:51:00:00	02:51:01:00	PASSING THEM ON TO THE
02:51:01:00	02:51:03:00	COUNCIL IF YOU FEEL IT'S
02:51:03:00	02:51:04:00	APPROPRIATE ASK IS WOULD THE
02:51:04:00	02:51:06:00	MAYOR CONSIDER INCLUDING A 40
02:51:06:00	02:51:07:00	PERCENT AM I OPTION IN THE NEW
02:51:07:00	02:51:10:00	EDP TO REACH THOSE LOWER
02:51:10:00	02:51:10:00	INCOMES THAT WE JUST
02:51:10:00	02:51:11:00	REFERENCED?
02:51:11:00	02:51:14:00	AND IF THERE'S CONCERNS AROUND
02:51:14:00	02:51:15:00	HOW TO DO THAT, WILL YOU WORK
02:51:15:00	02:51:15:00	WITH US TO FIND CREATIVE
02:51:15:00	02:51:16:00	SOLUTIONS?
02:51:16:00	02:51:18:00	FOR EXAMPLE, ONE SOLUTION WE'VE
02:51:18:00	02:51:22:00	PROPOSED IS ATTACHING THOSE
02:51:22:00	02:51:23:00	CITY VOUCHERS, HAVING
02:51:23:00	02:51:26:00	DEVELOPERS USE OF CITY VOUCHERS
02:51:26:00	02:51:27:00	FOR THAT FIFTY PERCENT AM I AND
02:51:27:00	02:51:29:00	THEN THAT ACTUALLY GETS DOWN TO
02:51:29:00	02:51:30:00	FORTY PERCENT AM I ALSO WOULD
02:51:30:00	02:51:33:00	THE MAYOR CONSIDER BUILDING IN
02:51:33:00	02:51:34:00	SOME MORE INCREASES OVER TIME?
02:51:34:00	02:51:37:00	I BELIEVE CHIEF DOLAN SAID A
02:51:37:00	02:51:38:00	NEW ADP WILL KICK IN JANUARY
02:51:38:00	02:51:41:00	1ST TWENTY TWENTY FOUR SO THAT
02:51:41:00	02:51:42:00	GOES UP TO 15 OR 17 PERCENT.
02:51:42:00	02:51:45:00	WOULD THE MAYOR CONSIDER IN
02:51:45:00	02:51:46:00	TWENTY TWENTY FIVE KICKING IN
02:51:46:00	02:51:47:00	ANOTHER AUTOMATIC ONE OR TWO
02:51:47:00	02:51:49:00	PERCENT LIKE EVERY YEAR GOING
02:51:49:00	02:51:49:00	UP SOME PERCENTAGE POINTS I'M
02:51:49:00	02:51:53:00	GOING QUOTE FROM OUR CGS REPORT
02:51:53:00	02:51:53:00	THERE THE CONSULTANT THAT THE
02:51:53:00	02:51:57:00	CITY HIRED WHICH IS CREATING A
02:51:57:00	02:52:00:00	PLAN THAT INCREASES REQUIREMENT
02:52:00:00	02:52:01:00	OVER A SET PERIOD CAN ADD A
02:52:01:00	02:52:04:00	LEVEL OF PREDICTABILITY FOR
02:52:04:00	02:52:05:00	BOTH DEVELOPERS AND PROPERTY
02:52:05:00	02:52:06:00	OWNERS AND ALLOW THE MARKET TO
02:52:06:00	02:52:08:00	ABSORB AND PLAN FOR FUTURE
02:52:08:00	02:52:08:00	CHANGES ALONG THE WAY.
02:52:08:00	02:52:09:00	THAT WAS IN THE RECOMMENDATION
02:52:09:00	02:52:12:00	WHEN THEY SAID YOU COULD PHASE
02:52:12:00	02:52:12:00	IN HIGHER REQUIREMENTS.
02:52:12:00	02:52:15:00	SO AGAIN THE TWO QUESTIONS ARE
02:52:15:00	02:52:16:00	WOULD THE MAYOR CONSIDER
02:52:16:00	02:52:17:00	INCLUDING A 40 PERCENT AM I
02:52:17:00	02:52:19:00	OPTION IN THE IDP OR FIGURING
02:52:19:00	02:52:20:00	OUT ANY SOLUTIONS THAT THERE
02:52:20:00	02:52:21:00	ARE SOME WORRIES ABOUT THAT
02:52:21:00	02:52:24:00	LIKE USING CITY VOUCHERS AND
02:52:24:00	02:52:24:00	NUMBER TWO WITH THE MAYOR
02:52:24:00	02:52:27:00	CONSIDER INCREASING THE IDP
02:52:27:00	02:52:28:00	OVER TIME AFTER JANUARY 1ST.
02:52:28:00	02:52:30:00	TWENTY TWENTY FOUR THANK THANK
02:52:30:00	02:52:38:00	YOU, GEORGE.
02:52:38:00	02:52:39:00	IT SOUNDS LIKE CHIEF SOUNDS
02:52:39:00	02:52:42:00	LIKE GEORGE HAS ANSWERED HALF
02:52:42:00	02:52:45:00	OF THE QUESTIONS WE SENT YOU SO
02:52:45:00	02:52:46:00	THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THAT
02:52:46:00	02:52:51:00	RESEARCH IN AGGREGATE IN THAT
02:52:51:00	02:52:51:00	DATA AND MAKING IT VISUAL FOR
02:52:51:00	02:52:52:00	US.
02:52:52:00	02:52:53:00	I WOULD LOVE A COPY OF WHATEVER
02:52:53:00	02:52:57:00	YOU HAVE IN DIGITAL FORM.
02:52:57:00	02:52:58:00	AND JUST FOR CLARIFICATION,
02:52:58:00	02:53:02:00	GEORGE, WHAT'S WHAT WOULD THE
02:53:02:00	02:53:05:00	TEN MILLION DO EXACTLY FOR
02:53:05:00	02:53:06:00	HOUSING?
02:53:06:00	02:53:10:00	SO RIGHT NOW WE'RE TRYING TO
02:53:10:00	02:53:11:00	FIGURE OUT IF IT'S A MILLION OR
02:53:11:00	02:53:13:00	ANOTHER NINE MILLION THAT'S
02:53:13:00	02:53:14:00	ALREADY IN THE CITY BUDGET FOR
02:53:14:00	02:53:15:00	BUILDING NEW HOUSING.
02:53:15:00	02:53:17:00	SO THE TEN MILLION WOULD BE FOR
02:53:17:00	02:53:18:00	MORTGAGE TO GIVE TO GROUPS AND
02:53:18:00	02:53:20:00	NONPROFITS TO BUILD ONE HUNDRED
02:53:20:00	02:53:21:00	AFFORDABLE HOUSING BUT MAKING
02:53:21:00	02:53:25:00	SURE THAT AT LEAST HALF
02:53:25:00	02:53:25:00	OF THOSE UNITS HAVE VOUCHERS
02:53:25:00	02:53:26:00	ATTACHED TO THEM SO THAT LOWER
02:53:26:00	02:53:29:00	INCOME FAMILIES CAN ACTUALLY
02:53:29:00	02:53:29:00	AFFORD TO LIVE THERE.
02:53:29:00	02:53:33:00	AND THE FOLKS WHO ARE MOST AT
02:53:33:00	02:53:33:00	RISK OF DISPLACEMENT CAN AFFORD
02:53:33:00	02:53:34:00	IT INSTEAD OF THESE 60 PERCENT
02:53:34:00	02:53:37:00	ASTHMA MY UNITS I THINK RIGHT
02:53:37:00	02:53:41:00	NOW THE THE POLICY MIGHT BE I
02:53:41:00	02:53:42:00	THINK SHE WAS SAYING BEFORE A
02:53:42:00	02:53:44:00	10 PERCENT SET ASIDE BUT SOME
02:53:44:00	02:53:47:00	SOMETIMES DEVELOPERS GO BEYOND
02:53:47:00	02:53:48:00	THAT.
02:53:48:00	02:53:49:00	BUT WITH THIS TEN MILLION
02:53:49:00	02:53:50:00	MAKING SURE HALF THE UNITS HAVE
02:53:50:00	02:53:52:00	VOUCHERS AS WELL AS MAKING SURE
02:53:52:00	02:53:53:00	IT'S EITHER SENIOR HOUSING OR
02:53:53:00	02:53:55:00	HALF OF THE UNITS ARE FAMILY
02:53:55:00	02:53:56:00	HOUSING TWO UNITS TWO BEDROOMS
02:53:56:00	02:53:59:00	ARE UP AND PART OF IT IS
02:53:59:00	02:54:00:00	BECAUSE RESIDENTS NEED MORE
02:54:00:00	02:54:01:00	THAN JUST HOUSING.
02:54:01:00	02:54:04:00	THEY MIGHT NEED JOBS OR
02:54:04:00	02:54:08:00	SERVICES CHILD CARE WHAT THEY
02:54:08:00	02:54:09:00	WANT IN TERMS OF OPEN SPACE OR
02:54:09:00	02:54:09:00	COMMUNITY SPACE.
02:54:09:00	02:54:11:00	THAT PART OF THAT 10 MILLION
02:54:11:00	02:54:12:00	WOULD BE TO SUPPORT COMMUNITY
02:54:12:00	02:54:15:00	VISIONING AS THESE NEW PROJECTS
02:54:15:00	02:54:16:00	ARE BUILT TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IN
02:54:16:00	02:54:16:00	ADDITION TO THE HOUSING THAT
02:54:16:00	02:54:17:00	THEY WOULD WANT BUILT ALONG
02:54:17:00	02:54:19:00	WITH HOUSING TO SUPPLEMENT SOME
02:54:19:00	02:54:23:00	OF THAT HOLISTIC ECOSYSTEM THAT
02:54:23:00	02:54:23:00	SOME OF HERE ALLUDED TO.
02:54:23:00	02:54:24:00	EXACTLY.
02:54:24:00	02:54:27:00	THANK YOU, CHIEF.
02:54:27:00	02:54:31:00	I I THINK I DON'T I DON'T NEED
02:54:31:00	02:54:32:00	YOU TO ANSWER SPECIFICALLY THE
02:54:32:00	02:54:34:00	QUESTIONS THAT GEORGE WAS
02:54:34:00	02:54:35:00	ASKING BUT WHAT COULD TEN
02:54:35:00	02:54:38:00	MILLION DO IN THIS MARKET?
02:54:38:00	02:54:39:00	YEAH.
02:54:39:00	02:54:43:00	SO I MEAN A LOT OF OUR AND WE
02:54:43:00	02:54:46:00	CAN I THINK A LOT OF OUR
02:54:46:00	02:54:50:00	DEVELOPMENT WE ALSO YOU KNOW WE
02:54:50:00	02:54:51:00	MAKE SURE THE DEVELOPMENT IS
02:54:51:00	02:54:51:00	CARRYING PRIVATE DEBT.
02:54:51:00	02:54:54:00	WE MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE GOING
02:54:54:00	02:54:55:00	TO THE STATE FOR RESOURCES,
02:54:55:00	02:54:57:00	WE'RE GOING TO PHILANTHROPY SO
02:54:57:00	02:54:58:00	LIKE WE WOULD TAKE, YOU KNOW,
02:54:58:00	02:55:01:00	ANY AMOUNT OF MONEY THAT WE WE
02:55:01:00	02:55:02:00	RECEIVE THROUGH THE
02:55:02:00	02:55:02:00	CONSTRUCTION OF NEW AFFORDABLE
02:55:02:00	02:55:05:00	HOUSING AND THEN TRY TO, YOU
02:55:05:00	02:55:06:00	KNOW, LEVERAGE LEVERAGE AT TWO,
02:55:06:00	02:55:09:00	THREE, FOUR OR FIVE FOLD.
02:55:09:00	02:55:10:00	SO IT WOULD IT WOULD HELP US
02:55:10:00	02:55:13:00	CREATE FOUR NEW UNITS
02:55:13:00	02:55:14:00	OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND WE'VE
02:55:14:00	02:55:14:00	BEEN VERY, VERY FORTUNATE
02:55:14:00	02:55:17:00	LATELY THAT WE'RE GETTING A LOT
02:55:17:00	02:55:18:00	OF STATE RESOURCES TO FOR OUR
02:55:18:00	02:55:20:00	PROJECTS THERE.
02:55:20:00	02:55:21:00	THEY'RE WELL DESIGNED.
02:55:21:00	02:55:21:00	THEY'RE WELL THOUGHT THROUGH
02:55:21:00	02:55:24:00	THE COMMUNITIES ARE SUPPORTIVE
02:55:24:00	02:55:24:00	AS YOU KNOW.
02:55:24:00	02:55:26:00	SO IT WOULD JUST ALLOW US TO TO
02:55:26:00	02:55:28:00	CREATE MORE AFFORDABLE HOUSING.
02:55:28:00	02:55:29:00	I THINK WHAT MR LEE IS SAYING
02:55:29:00	02:55:32:00	AND I THINK WE SHARE THAT THAT
02:55:32:00	02:55:33:00	WE DO REALLY NEED TO BE MORE
02:55:33:00	02:55:35:00	INTENTIONAL ABOUT OUR NEW
02:55:35:00	02:55:36:00	CONSTRUCTION HAVING MORE UNITS
02:55:36:00	02:55:39:00	AVAILABLE FOR OUR LOWEST INCOME
02:55:39:00	02:55:40:00	FAMILIES AND SENIORS AND

03:03:57:00	03:03:58:00	SUPPORT WHAT MANY MCMAHON SAID

03:04:29:00	03:04:32:00	ACQUISITIONS TO KEEP UP WITH
03:04:32:00	03:04:33:00	THE GROWING MARKET PRESSURES IN
03:04:33:00	03:04:35:00	THE LAST TWO YEARS BEING KELTIE
03:04:35:00	03:04:36:00	, OUR ORGANIZATION HAS BEEN
03:04:36:00	03:04:39:00	ABLE TO KEEP FIFTEEN LOW INCOME
03:04:39:00	03:04:40:00	FAMILIES FROM GETTING DISPLACED

03:04:48:00	03:04:48:00	PURCHASE IT WITHOUT THE ALP
03:04:48:00	03:04:48:00	FUNDING.
03:04:48:00	03:04:50:00	IT IS A HIGHLY EFFECTIVE
03:04:50:00	03:04:51:00	PROGRAM THAT FOCUSES ON HOUSING
03:04:51:00	03:04:55:00	PRESERVATION WHICH IS CRITICAL
03:04:55:00	03:04:56:00	TO THE STABILITY OF OUR DENSELY
03:04:56:00	03:04:57:00	BUILT OUT NEIGHBORHOODS IN
03:04:57:00	03:04:59:00	BOSTON.
03:04:59:00	03:05:00:00	THE SECOND ONE I ALSO WANT TO

03:05:03:00	03:05:04:00	CITY PROJECT BASED VOUCHER
03:05:04:00	03:05:06:00	PROGRAM.
03:05:06:00	03:05:07:00	THAT IS SOMETHING THAT I THINK
03:05:07:00	03:05:08:00	HAS ALSO BEEN AN INCREDIBLY
03:05:08:00	03:05:10:00	RESOURCEFUL, FLEXIBLE TOOL.
03:05:10:00	03:05:12:00	IT'S VERY HARD TO GET PROJECT
03:05:12:00	03:05:14:00	BASED VOUCHERS AND IT'S
03:05:14:00	03:05:14:00	ESPECIALLY HARD TO GET THEM FOR
03:05:14:00	03:05:15:00	THE SCATTERED SITE PROPERTIES
03:05:15:00	03:05:18:00	THAT THAT WE ARE ACQUIRING
03:05:18:00	03:05:18:00	THROUGH PRESERVATION.
03:05:18:00	03:05:21:00	THIS PROGRAM HAS ENABLED US TO
03:05:21:00	03:05:22:00	DO THAT.
03:05:22:00	03:05:23:00	WE ARE ABLE TO ALSO MAKE USE
03:05:23:00	03:05:25:00	OF A NUMBER OF FACTORS THIS

03:05:30:00	03:05:30:00	FOR OUR PARTNERS THROUGHOUT THE
03:05:30:00	03:05:34:00	COMMUNITY IS TO TO REALLY REACH
03:05:34:00	03:05:34:00	LOW AND HELP VERY LOW,

03:05:37:00	03:05:38:00	TO STAY PLACED IN THESE
03:05:38:00	03:05:40:00	BUILDINGS.
03:05:40:00	03:05:41:00	SO IT'S BEEN A REALLY EFFECTIVE
03:05:41:00	03:05:45:00	TOOL FOR US AND WE HOPE THAT IT
03:05:45:00	03:05:48:00	CONTINUES TO GROW AND THAT MORE
03:05:48:00	03:05:49:00	PEOPLE DO SUBSCRIBE TO IT.
03:05:49:00	03:05:52:00	I CAN I CAN ATTEST IT'S BEEN
03:05:52:00	03:05:53:00	VERY VALUABLE TO KEEP OUR OWN
03:05:53:00	03:05:56:00	PROPERTIES FINANCIAL STABLE AND

03:06:15:00	03:06:19:00	IMPORTANT RESOURCE AND PART
03:06:19:00	03:06:22:00	OF IT IS TO HELP KELTY'S
03:06:22:00	03:06:23:00	ACQUIRE PROPERTIES THROUGH

03:06:31:00	03:06:32:00	WE'RE REALLY GETTING INTO THE
03:06:32:00	03:06:34:00	MECHANICS OF HOW TO DO LAND
03:06:34:00	03:06:35:00	TRANSFER SO PEOPLE CAN AGE IN
03:06:35:00	03:06:37:00	PLACE AND POTENTIALLY DONATE
03:06:37:00	03:06:38:00	THEIR PROPERTIES OR SELL AT A

03:12:14:00	03:12:15:00	WELL AS HOW THESE FUNDS ARE
03:12:15:00	03:12:15:00	BEING AGREED UPON.
03:12:15:00	03:12:18:00	OBVIOUSLY IT'S NOT LAW.
03:12:18:00	03:12:18:00	IT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT THEY
03:12:18:00	03:12:21:00	HAVE TO DO BUT IT'S SOME SORT
03:12:21:00	03:12:22:00	OF GOODWILL LIKE YOU KNOW, IF
03:12:22:00	03:12:24:00	YOU ARE GOING TO DEVELOP HERE
03:12:24:00	03:12:25:00	YOU SHOULD YOU SHOULD
03:12:25:00	03:12:26:00	CONTRIBUTE TO THE COMMUNITY OR
03:12:26:00	03:12:29:00	YOU SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE ABOUT
03:12:29:00	03:12:30:00	HOW YOU'RE DEVELOPING HERE AND
03:12:30:00	03:12:32:00	HOW THE COMMUNITY IS IMPACTED.
03:12:32:00	03:12:33:00	AND SO THE DEVELOPERS SOMETIMES
03:12:33:00	03:12:37:00	MAY PUSH BACK AND SAY OH, BPA
03:12:37:00	03:12:38:00	SAID WE DON'T HAVE TO LIKE WE
03:12:38:00	03:12:40:00	DON'T EVEN HAVE TO AGREE TO
03:12:40:00	03:12:42:00	GIVE TO NONPROFITS AND IN THIS
03:12:42:00	03:12:44:00	AREA AND THEN WE'LL GO TO BPA.
03:12:44:00	03:12:45:00	BPA WILL SAY OF COURSE NOT LIKE
03:12:45:00	03:12:48:00	WE'RE NOT SAYING LIKE NO.
03:12:48:00	03:12:49:00	AND THEN SO THERE'S ALL THIS
03:12:49:00	03:12:52:00	PUSH AND PULL THEN I'M AS A
03:12:52:00	03:12:53:00	COUNCILOR AS WE GET CALLS ABOUT
03:12:53:00	03:12:56:00	THESE THINGS AND I'M I THINK
03:12:56:00	03:12:59:00	THAT BPA IS WORKING IN GOOD
03:12:59:00	03:12:59:00	FAITH TO MAKE SURE THAT THESE
03:12:59:00	03:13:00:00	THINGS ARE TRANSPARENT.
03:13:00:00	03:13:01:00	I'VE LOOKED AT THE DOCUMENTS
03:13:01:00	03:13:01:00	I'VE READ THROUGH THESE
03:13:01:00	03:13:04:00	MITIGATION CONTRACTS BUT I ALSO
03:13:04:00	03:13:06:00	I ALSO FEEL LIKE THERE NEEDS TO
03:13:06:00	03:13:07:00	BE THE STREAMLINED PROCESS WITH
03:13:07:00	03:13:08:00	ARTICLE EIGHTY AND OBVIOUSLY
03:13:08:00	03:13:11:00	THAT'S BEEN WORKED ON.
03:13:11:00	03:13:12:00	BUT THEN THE COMMUNITY SAYS
03:13:12:00	03:13:14:00	WELL EVEN WITH THE ADVISORY
03:13:14:00	03:13:15:00	IMPACT GROUPS OR THE ARTICLE
03:13:15:00	03:13:18:00	EIGHTY LIKE THE ADVISORY
03:13:18:00	03:13:19:00	COUNCIL THAT'S BEEN PUT
03:13:19:00	03:13:20:00	TOGETHER THAT'S NOT TRANSPARENT
03:13:20:00	03:13:23:00	AND THAT DOESN'T INCLUDE THE
03:13:23:00	03:13:23:00	PEOPLE ON THE GROUND OR PEOPLE
03:13:23:00	03:13:24:00	THAT LIVE IN OUR AREA.
03:13:24:00	03:13:27:00	SO LIKE FOR EXAMPLE ROXBURY DID
03:13:27:00	03:13:27:00	NOT HAVE SOMEONE THAT PEOPLE
03:13:27:00	03:13:30:00	WERE FAMILIAR WITH OR THAT
03:13:30:00	03:13:31:00	LIVED IN ROXBURY IN THAT
03:13:31:00	03:13:34:00	ADVISORY COUNCIL GROUP AND THEN
03:13:34:00	03:13:38:00	ALSO WITH THE I A G THAT FOLKS
03:13:38:00	03:13:39:00	ARE NOT ACTUALLY BEING SELECTED
03:13:39:00	03:13:42:00	THERE THAT IS SORT OF CHERRY
03:13:42:00	03:13:43:00	PICKING WHO YOU WANT TO BE ON
03:13:43:00	03:13:43:00	THOSE GROUPS.
03:13:43:00	03:13:46:00	AND I KNOW THAT THAT'S NOT THE
03:13:46:00	03:13:50:00	CASE BECAUSE I I'VE I'VE
03:13:50:00	03:13:50:00	REFERRED PEOPLE PEOPLE HAVE
03:13:50:00	03:13:51:00	GOTTEN SELECTED AND I
03:13:51:00	03:13:53:00	APPRECIATE THE WORK THAT YOU DO
03:13:53:00	03:13:57:00	BEING IN BPA AND BEING IN LIKE
03:13:57:00	03:14:05:00	A HIGHLY LIKE A VERY A VERY LOW
03:14:05:00	03:14:05:00	PERCENTAGE OF MINORITIES
03:14:05:00	03:14:09:00	EMPLOYEES THE EPA HAS LIKE ONE
03:14:09:00	03:14:10:00	OF THE HIGHEST LIKE IT'S LIKE
03:14:10:00	03:14:12:00	BOSTON FIRE DEPARTMENT.
03:14:12:00	03:14:13:00	EIGHTY PERCENT NOT MINORITY
03:14:13:00	03:14:16:00	GROUPS, WHITE PEOPLE AND SO
03:14:16:00	03:14:17:00	WHERE IT'S DIFFICULT FOR YOU TO
03:14:17:00	03:14:21:00	COME IN AND YOU'RE JUST A
03:14:21:00	03:14:21:00	PERSON YOU'RE JUST DOING YOUR
03:14:21:00	03:14:22:00	JOB, YOU'RE DOING A GREAT JOB.
03:14:22:00	03:14:24:00	BUT THEN FOR YOU TO COME IN AND
03:14:24:00	03:14:24:00	HAVE THESE CONVERSATIONS ABOUT
03:14:24:00	03:14:28:00	INCLUSION, INCLUSION, DIVERSITY
03:14:28:00	03:14:29:00	, WHAT'S GOING ON IDP HOW ARE
03:14:29:00	03:14:32:00	YOU GUYS CREATING THE
03:14:32:00	03:14:33:00	TRANSPARENT PROCESS THAT
03:14:33:00	03:14:37:00	COMMUNICATE WHAT'S GOING ON IN
03:14:37:00	03:14:37:00	COMMUNITY MITIGATION FUNDS?
03:14:37:00	03:14:40:00	HOW CAN WE COMMUNICATE THAT?
03:14:40:00	03:14:41:00	HOW CAN WE ENGAGE A COMMUNITY
03:14:41:00	03:14:42:00	UNDERSTANDING IT BETTER AND HOW
03:14:42:00	03:14:44:00	ARE YOU WORKING DIVERSITY AND
03:14:44:00	03:14:47:00	INCLUSION TO BE ABLE TO SAY
03:14:47:00	03:14:48:00	YEAH OK, I'M A WHITE GUY, I
03:14:48:00	03:14:50:00	CARE, I DO I DO MY JOB, I DO A
03:14:50:00	03:14:52:00	WELL HOW DO WE HAVE THIS
03:14:52:00	03:14:52:00	CONVERSATION IN A TRANSPARENT
03:14:52:00	03:14:53:00	WAY SO THAT IT'S COMFORTABLE
03:14:53:00	03:14:56:00	FOR PEOPLE THAT PEOPLE ARE IN A
03:14:56:00	03:14:57:00	SAFE SPACE TO BE ABLE TO CREATE
03:14:57:00	03:14:57:00	THIS TRANSPARENCY IN THIS
03:14:57:00	03:14:59:00	CULTURE OF INCLUSION?
03:14:59:00	03:15:03:00	YEAH, I MEAN YOU'VE IDENTIFIED
03:15:03:00	03:15:04:00	A LOT OF THE CHALLENGES THAT
03:15:04:00	03:15:06:00	WE'RE TRYING TO WORK THROUGH
03:15:06:00	03:15:07:00	EVERY DAY.
03:15:07:00	03:15:10:00	I THINK THE NATURE OF THE
03:15:10:00	03:15:11:00	DEVELOPMENT REVIEW PROCESS IS
03:15:11:00	03:15:15:00	SORT OF YOU KNOW, IT'S A
03:15:15:00	03:15:18:00	NEGOTIATION AND IN NEGOTIATIONS
03:15:18:00	03:15:19:00	TYPICALLY, YOU KNOW, VOICES
03:15:19:00	03:15:23:00	THERE ARE LOUDER VOICES THAN
03:15:23:00	03:15:23:00	OTHERS SOMETIMES I THINK THAT'S
03:15:23:00	03:15:26:00	WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO WHEN WE
03:15:26:00	03:15:27:00	GO THROUGH ARTICLE EIGHTY
03:15:27:00	03:15:30:00	REFORM IS TO TRY TO MAKE YOU
03:15:30:00	03:15:31:00	DEMYSTIFY THOSE PROCESSES, MAKE
03:15:31:00	03:15:34:00	THEM MORE TRANSPARENT, TRY TO
03:15:34:00	03:15:35:00	MAKE FORMALIZE IT A LITTLE BIT
03:15:35:00	03:15:38:00	SO THAT FOLKS THAT ARE COMING
03:15:38:00	03:15:39:00	TO THE TABLE HAVE A BETTER
03:15:39:00	03:15:42:00	UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT THEY'RE
03:15:42:00	03:15:42:00	GETTING INTO AND HOW THESE
03:15:42:00	03:15:43:00	THINGS WORK.
03:15:43:00	03:15:46:00	ALSO JUST TO SIMPLIFY IT, IT'S
03:15:46:00	03:15:46:00	COMPLICATED.
03:15:46:00	03:15:49:00	THERE'S TONS OF MEETINGS.
03:15:49:00	03:15:50:00	THERE'S A LOT OF TIME INVOLVED
03:15:50:00	03:15:54:00	AND WE KNOW THAT THE MORE WE
03:15:54:00	03:15:55:00	KNOW THAT, THE MORE TIME WE
03:15:55:00	03:15:58:00	SPEND DOING, YOU KNOW,
03:15:58:00	03:15:59:00	MEETINGS, COMMITTEE PROCESS
03:15:59:00	03:16:01:00	THAT DRIVES OUT FOLKS THAT
03:16:01:00	03:16:02:00	MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO COMMIT AS
03:16:02:00	03:16:03:00	MUCH TIME.
03:16:03:00	03:16:13:00	AND SO WE WE YOU KNOW, WE GET
03:16:13:00	03:16:14:00	THE SAME FACES AND NAMES KIND
03:16:14:00	03:16:14:00	OF OVER AND OVER AGAIN.
03:16:14:00	03:16:15:00	SO THESE ARE ALL THINGS THAT WE
03:16:15:00	03:16:16:00	WE'RE WORKING ON.
03:16:16:00	03:16:16:00	WE'VE RELEASED WE'RE CURRENTLY

03:17:00:00	03:17:02:00	THERE IS A CULTURE
03:17:02:00	03:17:03:00	OF DISENFRANCHIZING COMMUNITIES
03:17:03:00	03:17:03:00	OF COLOR.
03:17:03:00	03:17:03:00	RIGHT.

03:18:07:00	03:18:10:00	I WAS IMPRESSED AND I I AM NOT
03:18:10:00	03:18:11:00	LIKE THE JUDGE OR THE PERSON

03:18:30:00	03:18:31:00	I LOOK FORWARD TO MORE
03:18:31:00	03:18:32:00	CONVERSATIONS ON HOUSING AND
03:18:32:00	03:18:34:00	LOOKING AT THOSE PARCELS HOW
03:18:34:00	03:18:34:00	WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO
03:18:34:00	03:18:37:00	DEVELOP AS A CITY WE HAVE TO
03:18:37:00	03:18:38:00	CONTINUE TO DEVELOP.
03:18:38:00	03:18:41:00	IT'S NOT A THRIVING CITY.
03:18:41:00	03:18:42:00	IF WE CAN DEVELOP HOW DO WE DO
03:18:42:00	03:18:45:00	IT SO THAT IT'S EQUITABLE?
03:18:45:00	03:18:46:00	HOW DO WE LOOK AT THE
03:18:46:00	03:18:46:00	INVENTORY?
03:18:46:00	03:18:48:00	EVERYBODY'S LIKE I WANT PEACE,
03:18:48:00	03:18:49:00	I WANT PEACE.
03:18:49:00	03:18:52:00	I WANT A PEACE WITH SUCH A
03:18:52:00	03:18:53:00	DEPRIVED COMMUNITY.
03:18:53:00	03:18:53:00	RIGHT.
03:18:53:00	03:18:54:00	ESPECIALLY IN COMMUNITIES
03:18:54:00	03:18:54:00	OF COLOR.
03:18:54:00	03:18:57:00	THERE'S BEEN SO MUCH HISTORIC
03:18:57:00	03:18:57:00	HARM.
03:18:57:00	03:18:58:00	HOW DO WE DO THAT THOUGHTFULLY
03:18:58:00	03:19:01:00	AND INTENTIONALLY IN A WAY THAT
03:19:01:00	03:19:01:00	WE'RE ACTUALLY IMPACT MAKING
03:19:01:00	03:19:05:00	TRUE IMPACT FOR THOSE WHO NEED
03:19:05:00	03:19:05:00	US MOST.
03:19:05:00	03:19:05:00	RIGHT.
03:19:05:00	03:19:08:00	ESPECIALLY FOR THOSE WHO WERE
03:19:08:00	03:19:09:00	HISTORICALLY TAKEN FROM OR
03:19:09:00	03:19:12:00	DISENFRANCHIZED.
03:19:12:00	03:19:13:00	SO THAT'S THOSE ARE MY THOUGHTS
03:19:13:00	03:19:16:00	SO FAR I THINK AS I REFINE MY

03:19:24:00	03:19:27:00	DO THIS WORK IN A WAY THAT'S

03:19:36:00	03:19:36:00	WORK.
03:19:36:00	03:19:39:00	THANK YOU KAZAMI YOU HAVE THE
03:19:39:00	03:19:40:00	FLOOR FOR ANY CLOSING REMARKS.
03:19:40:00	03:19:43:00	THANK YOU.
03:19:43:00	03:19:46:00	SO I WANTED TO JUST ECHO SOME
03:19:46:00	03:19:47:00	MY GRATITUDE TO YOU ALL FOR
03:19:47:00	03:19:48:00	YOUR HARD WORK.
03:19:48:00	03:19:51:00	THIS IS WHAT PARTNERSHIP LOOKS
03:19:51:00	03:19:51:00	LIKE.
03:19:51:00	03:19:51:00	RIGHT?
03:19:51:00	03:19:52:00	SO I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT FOR
03:19:52:00	03:19:55:00	US TO CONTINUE THESE DIALOGS
03:19:55:00	03:19:55:00	BEYOND THE BUDGET SEASON.
03:19:55:00	03:19:56:00	I REALLY DO THINK THAT WE NEED
03:19:56:00	03:19:57:00	TO START DOING BUSINESS
03:19:57:00	03:19:59:00	DIFFERENTLY, REALLY LEANING IN
03:19:59:00	03:20:00:00	AND HAVING ONGOING KIND OF LIKE
03:20:00:00	03:20:03:00	WE WOULD DO WE GO FROM HERE.
03:20:03:00	03:20:05:00	I DO WANT TO ECHO SOME OF THE
03:20:05:00	03:20:09:00	CONCERNS AROUND THE PPTA WE SAW
03:20:09:00	03:20:10:00	.
03:20:10:00	03:20:11:00	I FEEL LIKE WE'RE WE'RE ALMOST
03:20:11:00	03:20:14:00	THERE BUT WE STILL HAVE A
03:20:14:00	03:20:15:00	LITTLE BIT OF SHORTCUTS THAT I
03:20:15:00	03:20:16:00	THINK WE'RE STILL TRYING TO
03:20:16:00	03:20:18:00	TAKE WHEN IT COMES TO COMMUNITY
03:20:18:00	03:20:18:00	VOICE.
03:20:18:00	03:20:21:00	SO I'VE BEEN HEARING FOR SOME
03:20:21:00	03:20:22:00	FOLKS, PARTICULARLY SHIRLEY
03:20:22:00	03:20:28:00	JONES WHO IS IN WARD FIFTEEN
03:20:28:00	03:20:30:00	THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF ISSUES
03:20:30:00	03:20:30:00	OF DEVELOPMENT HAPPENING IN
03:20:30:00	03:20:33:00	THAT AREA AND IT SEEMS LIKE THE
03:20:33:00	03:20:39:00	EPA IS NOT RESPONDING TO.
03:20:39:00	03:20:39:00	IT SEEMS VERY TRANSACTIONAL
03:20:39:00	03:20:42:00	LIKE A CHECKING OFF THE BOX
03:20:42:00	03:20:44:00	WHERE YOU COME IN AND YOU HAVE
03:20:44:00	03:20:44:00	THESE ALLEGED STRUCTURES IN
03:20:44:00	03:20:46:00	PLACE BUT YET PROJECTS ARE
03:20:46:00	03:20:47:00	BEING APPROVED.
03:20:47:00	03:20:51:00	COMMUNITY MEMBERS ARE FEELING
03:20:51:00	03:20:51:00	HEARD.
03:20:51:00	03:20:54:00	SO I STILL THINK THAT THAT
03:20:54:00	03:20:55:00	THERE IS SOME OPPORTUNITY THERE
03:20:55:00	03:20:58:00	FOR GROWTH AND TO FIX THOSE
03:20:58:00	03:21:02:00	ISSUES WHEN COMES TO HOW WE
03:21:02:00	03:21:06:00	APPROVE THE PROCESS.
03:21:06:00	03:21:07:00	SO I JUST WANT TO NAME THAT AS
03:21:07:00	03:21:09:00	SOMETHING THAT I WILL CONTINUE
03:21:09:00	03:21:10:00	TO FIGHT FOR AND THEN I JUST
03:21:10:00	03:21:14:00	THINK OVERALL LIKE YOU KNOW,
03:21:14:00	03:21:17:00	COUNCILOR LADHA ALWAYS SAYS
03:21:17:00	03:21:18:00	THAT THE PERSONAL IS POLITICAL
03:21:18:00	03:21:21:00	AND AND ALL OF THESE THINGS ARE
03:21:21:00	03:21:21:00	INTERCONNECTED AND I HOPE THAT,
03:21:21:00	03:21:25:00	YOU KNOW, WHEN WE COME HERE AND
03:21:25:00	03:21:26:00	ADVOCATING ON BEHALF OF OUR
03:21:26:00	03:21:28:00	CONSTITUENTS, MANY OF US HAVE
03:21:28:00	03:21:29:00	EXPERIENCED HOUSING
03:21:29:00	03:21:29:00	INSTABILITY.
03:21:29:00	03:21:32:00	SO FOR US IT'S NOT WHAT WE'VE
03:21:32:00	03:21:33:00	LEARNED ABOUT IN THE TEXTBOOKS,
03:21:33:00	03:21:36:00	YOU KNOW, OR THERI OR SOMETHING
03:21:36:00	03:21:40:00	THAT YOU KNOW, IT'S PROFOUND.
03:21:40:00	03:21:41:00	AND I THINK THAT OFTENTIMES
03:21:41:00	03:21:42:00	WHEN WE ADVOCATE WE ADVOCATE
03:21:42:00	03:21:44:00	FROM A PLACE OF BEING THERE AND
03:21:44:00	03:21:45:00	BEING BEEN THERE AND DONE THAT
03:21:45:00	03:21:48:00	TYPE OF SCENARIO AND THAT
03:21:48:00	03:21:49:00	THERE'S URGENCY.
03:21:49:00	03:21:52:00	AND I THINK THAT AS A CITY, YOU
03:21:52:00	03:21:55:00	KNOW, WE HAVE A A BOLD MAYOR
03:21:55:00	03:21:55:00	RAY.
03:21:55:00	03:21:57:00	WE WE ARE ENTERING INTO THIS
03:21:57:00	03:22:00:00	TYPE OF WAY DOING BUSINESS BUT
03:22:00:00	03:22:03:00	NOW WE ALL HAVE TO LIKE ROLE IN
03:22:03:00	03:22:04:00	THE SAME DIRECTION TO MEET THE
03:22:04:00	03:22:06:00	MOMENT BECAUSE OTHERWISE WE'RE
03:22:06:00	03:22:07:00	GOING TO BE PLACED AND
03:22:07:00	03:22:11:00	DISPLACED TO ROSLINDALE OR NOT
03:22:11:00	03:22:15:00	ROSENDALE RANDOLPH STILL IN
03:22:15:00	03:22:16:00	BROCKTON LIKE IT IS YOU SEE THE
03:22:16:00	03:22:19:00	MIGRATION PATTERNS.
03:22:19:00	03:22:20:00	IT IS REALLY INTENTIONAL THAT
03:22:20:00	03:22:21:00	BLACK AND BROWN PEOPLE AND POOR
03:22:21:00	03:22:24:00	PEOPLE IN PARTICULAR CAN NO
03:22:24:00	03:22:25:00	LONGER AFFORD TO LIVE IN THE
03:22:25:00	03:22:25:00	CITY.
03:22:25:00	03:22:27:00	AND WHAT I DO APPRECIATE THE
03:22:27:00	03:22:30:00	INTENT AROUND BUILDING.
03:22:30:00	03:22:31:00	I THINK WE NEED TO START
03:22:31:00	03:22:32:00	BUILDING WITH MORE
03:22:32:00	03:22:34:00	INTENTIONALITY AROUND KEEPING
03:22:34:00	03:22:35:00	PEOPLE HERE, THE PEOPLE WHO
03:22:35:00	03:22:36:00	CAN'T AFFORD TO LIVE HERE, THE
03:22:36:00	03:22:39:00	ONES THAT ARE MAKING THIRTY ONE
03:22:39:00	03:22:41:00	THOUSAND DOLLARS A YEAR.
03:22:41:00	03:22:42:00	IF WE'RE REALLY SERIOUS ABOUT
03:22:42:00	03:22:43:00	MEETING THIS MOMENT, WE'RE
03:22:43:00	03:22:46:00	GOING TO HAVE TO DO THINGS
03:22:46:00	03:22:49:00	DIFFERENTLY AND THAT IS WHAT
03:22:49:00	03:22:50:00	I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO WORKING
03:22:50:00	03:22:53:00	WITH YOU TO FIGURE OUT WHAT
