i wanted to talk to you about the um dining outdoor dining on pearl street
if there's a de-annexation there's a change in what happens with the dx de-annexation
um i wanted to talk to you about cu south
and without having the land disposal of 119 acres this is a new change it was brought up
calling a special meeting on september 14th which will be um for the public hearing of the cu south annexation
calling a special meeting on september 14th which will be um for the public hearing of the cu south annexation
next on our agenda we have our call up and check-in items under number four on this agenda
bhp has undergone public outreach for the project which the applicant is available to discuss
is on track to go to the landmarks board at the october 6th um meeting dates which would then go to council
our intent um we're actually moving where the community gardens would be so they'd be a little more central in the site
we looked at the child care use their staffing needs as well as what bhp staffing needs might be
we've seen you know trends in e-bikes increasing and i think that will only continue
let me double check i haven't heard any desire to call it up does anyone desire to call this project up
it also requests a total of nearly 1.9 million from 22 restricted funds from additional revenue and from fund balance
library services arts including programs and cultural grants parks and recreation including recreation services
the airport has requested an eight hundred thousand dollar appropriation from fund balance
including expanded and pilot programming in affordable commercial expansion of our micro loan program
some smaller amounts for neighborhood grants and public art maintenance next slide please
she's been a world champion of immigrant rights and a great partner with the city on our policy advocacy
there's going to be greenhouse gas emission regulations that are imposed on the oil and gas sector
the governor's road map for production of greenhouse gases need to reduce their emissions by 4.7 metric million tons
this fourth policy priority has to do with building energy codes um so again different sector
governments to adopt such advanced codes as a floor local governments would still have the ability
the second request the federal policy priority request is around urban forestry
it's seen as one of the most impactful ways that local governments can address the extreme heat that we are facing
you could very likely have 10 degrees warmer so definitely enough to make a difference
to provide significant new funding to expand urban forestry as a climate mitigation resilience and equity-based community development strategy
the city will support being granted the authority to place limits on the rent increases that can be imposed on pad rents in manufactured home communities
they often see a more limited repeal that applies just to the manufactured homing uh manufactured housing industry
it was very much as an approach to address and support our homeless population as well as many others in our community
and then they drop their affordable housing and you approve them because of their affordable housing gone poof disappeared
stating the obvious just like oh housing the unhoused it's like duh yeah
i'm extraordinarily skeptical of direct air capture as being scalable enough
making our forest healthy everywhere and doing so in our urban environment has all the advantages
they do have all the usual litec and section 8 and things like that um and the low-income housing tax credit
which i suppose would cover things like uh permanent supportive housing
it also has impacts on access in the area not just for people in cars but certainly for folks who are walking or living with disabilities
there are winter differences that we want to make sure are allowing for ada compliance and emergency vehicle access
i hope we do get to a formal agreement with downtown boulder partnership
so the state imposed a communal outdoor dining regulation during the pandemic that allowed for expedited temporary modifications
as we think about places like the hill particularly the event street we um we think about
i'm not talking about parklets here and there around town i'm talking about a long-term street closure
members of council eight a is the discussion regarding timing of ordinance 8485 the 2020 midterm update to the bvcp
immediately following what's going to be a very difficult and contentious process of decision making uh on cu south
so the rezonings here simply implement land use plan changes that you've already approved
i'm not supportive of starting it over with the new council
