AND I'D LIKE TO HAVE ERIC WOOLVERTON COME DOWN, IF YOU'D LIKE.

THANK YOU, MAYOR. COUNCIL MEMBERS.

CITY MANAGER. CITY STAFF.

MY NAME IS ERIC WOOLVERTON AND I REPRESENT HABITAT FOR HUMANITY OF NORTHERN ARIZONA.

RIGHT NOW, HABITAT IS WORKING WITH MULTIPLE LAND TRUST PARTNERS IN FLAGSTAFF TO HOST HABITAT STARTER HOMES.

THESE AFFORDABLE HOMES SUPPORTING FLAGSTAFF'S WORKFORCE WILL ALLOW A FAMILY TO BUY IN A HOME OWNERSHIP IN FLAGSTAFF WITH ONLY A $1,000 DOWN PAYMENT WHILE PROVIDING A SAVINGS PROGRAM OF $10,000 IN EQUITY EACH AND EVERY YEAR OF HOMEOWNERSHIP.

ASK YOURSELF WHAT OPPORTUNITIES PRESENT THEMSELVES IF YOU HAD $30,000 IN JUST THREE YEARS OR $50,000 AFTER ONLY FIVE YEARS? THIS SHARED EQUITY MODEL CREATES SELF WEALTH FOR THOSE FAMILIES WHO NEVER CONSIDERED THEY COULD EVER OWN A HOME.

NOW HABITAT IS READY TO BUILD MORE STARTER HOMES.

WITH THE ADDITION OF WESTPAC CONSTRUCTION, AS OUR GENERAL CONTRACTOR, WE HAVE THE EXPERTISE AND KNOWLEDGE OF BUILDING ENTIRE NEIGHBORHOODS IN A SHORTER TIME FRAME.

NOT ONLY IS WESTPAC PROVIDING 100% OF THEIR SERVICES FOR FREE TO HABITAT, THEIR EXPERIENCE IN BUILDING ENTIRE NEIGHBORHOODS CREATES A HUGE SAVINGS ON MATERIALS AND LABOR.

WESTPAC HAS ALSO DONATED OVER A QUARTER MILLION DOLLARS IN JUST THE PAST FOUR YEARS TO THIS HABITAT HERE IN FLAGSTAFF.

ESTABLISHED IN 1991, WESTPAC PURSUES THE ART OF CONSTRUCTION WHILE CONTRIBUTING KNOWLEDGE, LEADERSHIP, PASSION, COMMITMENT AND DIVERSITY TO EVERY EMPLOYEE, CLIENT AND PROJECT TEAM, FROM SMALL TENANT IMPROVEMENT TO LARGE SHELL AND MASTER PLANNED COMMUNITIES.

WESTPAC OFFERS A FULL RANGE OF PRE-CONSTRUCTION AND CONSTRUCTION SERVICES IN A VARIETY OF MARKET SECTORS.

WESTPAC CONSTRUCTION WAS RANKED EIGHTH IN THE STATE OF ARIZONA AND THE TOP GENERAL CONTRACTORS FOR 2022 BY RANKING ARIZONA.

A STATEWIDE OPINION POLL, AS I'VE MENTIONED IN THE PAST, COUNCIL MEETINGS, HABITAT FOR HUMANITY OF NORTHERN ARIZONA IN PARTNERSHIP WITH WESTPAC CONSTRUCTION IN THE CITY OF FLAGSTAFF LAND TRUST PROGRAM, IS READY NOW TO BUILD STARTER HOMES THROUGHOUT FLAGSTAFF TOGETHER.

LET'S END POVERTY WITH A VIEW AND BUILD PROSPERITY WITH VIEW.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU, ERIC.

[5. Review of Draft Agenda for the June 7, 2022 City Council Meeting Citizens wishing to speak on agenda items not specifically called out by the City Council may submit a speaker card for their items of interest to the recording clerk.]

WITH THAT, WE ARE DOWN TO AGENDA ITEM FIVE, WHICH IS THE REVIEW OF DRAFT AGENDA FOR THE JUNE 7TH, 2022 CITY COUNCIL MEETING COUNCIL.

ANY CURRENT CONCERNS? CONSIDERATIONS. PULL UP THE CHAT BOX HERE AND MAKE SURE YOU GOT THE CREW ONLINE.

ALL RIGHT. I'M NOT SEEING ANYTHING AT THIS TIME, SO WE ARE READY TO MOVE RIGHT ALONG HERE.

AND WE DO HAVE TWO PROCLAMATIONS ARE NATIONAL GUN VIOLENCE AWARENESS DAY AND PRIDE MONTH.

[6. Proclamation: National Gun Violence Awareness Day]

SO IF MARY, IF YOU'D LIKE TO COME UP FRONT WITH COUNCIL AND THE WHOLE CREW, THAT WOULD BE GREAT.

AND WE CAN DO PROCLAMATIONS DOWN HERE.

[00:05:13]

YEAH. IF YOU ALL WANT TO JUST BE ON THE FIRST STEP, I THINK THAT WOULD BE PERFECT.

ALL RIGHT. THIS PROCLAMATION DECLARES THE FIRST FRIDAY IN JUNE TO BE NATIONAL GUN VIOLENCE AWARENESS DAY IN THE CITY OF FLAGSTAFF, TO HONOR AND REMEMBER ALL VICTIMS AND SURVIVORS OF GUN VIOLENCE AND TO DECLARE THAT WE AS A COUNTRY MUST DO MORE TO REDUCE GUN VIOLENCE.

EVERY DAY, MORE THAN 110 AMERICANS ARE KILLED BY GUN VIOLENCE ALONGSIDE MORE THAN 200 WHO ARE SHOT AND WOUNDED.

AND ON AVERAGE, THERE ARE NEARLY 16,000 GUN HOMICIDES EVERY YEAR.

AMERICANS ARE 26 TIMES MORE LIKELY TO DIE BY GUN HOMICIDE THAN PEOPLE IN OTHER HIGH INCOME COUNTRIES.

IN ARIZONA, THERE ARE 1155 GUN DEATHS EVERY YEAR, WITH A RATE OF 15.6 DEATHS PER 100,000 PEOPLE.

ARIZONA HAS THE 19TH HIGHEST RATE OF GUN DEATHS IN THE UNITED STATES.

GUN HOMICIDES AND ASSAULTS ARE CONCENTRATED IN CITIES, WITH MORE THAN HALF OF ALL FIREARM RELATED GUN DEATHS IN THE NATION OCCURRING IN 127 CITIES.

CITIES ACROSS THE NATION, INCLUDING IN FLAGSTAFF, ARE WORKING TO END THE SENSELESS VIOLENCE WITH EVIDENCE BASED SOLUTIONS.

PROTECTING PUBLIC SAFETY AND THE COMMUNITIES THEY SERVE IS THE MAYOR'S HIGHEST RESPONSIBILITY.

SUPPORT FOR THE SECOND AMENDMENT RIGHTS OF LAW ABIDING CITIZENS GOES HAND IN HAND WITH KEEPING GUNS AWAY FROM PEOPLE WITH DANGEROUS HISTORIES.

MAYORS AND LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS KNOW THEIR COMMUNITIES BEST, ARE THE MOST FAMILIAR WITH LOCAL CRIMINAL ACTIVITY AND HOW TO ADDRESS IT, AND OUR BEST POSITION TO UNDERSTAND HOW TO KEEP THEIR CITIZENS SAFE.

GUN VIOLENCE PREVENTION IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN EVER AS THE COVID 19 PANDEMIC CONTINUES TO EXACERBATE GUN VIOLENCE.

AFTER MORE THAN TWO YEARS OF INCREASED GUN SALES, INCREASED CALLS TO SUICIDE AND DOMESTIC VIOLENCE HOTLINES, AND AN INCREASE IN CITY GUN VIOLENCE.

IN JANUARY 2013, HADIYA PENDLETON WAS TRAGICALLY SHOT AND KILLED AT AGE 15.

ON JUNE 3RD, 2022 TO RECOGNIZE THE 25TH BIRTHDAY OF HADIYA PENDLETON, PEOPLE ACROSS THE UNITED STATES WILL RECOGNIZE NATIONAL GUN VIOLENCE AWARENESS DAY AND WEAR ORANGE IN TRIBUTE TO HADIYA PENDLETON AND OTHER VICTIMS OF GUN VIOLENCE AND THE LOVED ONES OF THOSE VICTIMS. THE IDEA WAS INSPIRED BY A GROUP OF HADIYA'S FRIENDS WHO ASKED THEIR CLASSMATES TO COMMEMORATE HER LIFE BY WEARING ORANGE.

THEY CHOSE THIS COLOR BECAUSE HUNTERS WEAR ORANGE TO ANNOUNCE THEMSELVES TO OTHER HUNTERS.

WHEN OUT IN THE WOODS, AN ORANGE IS A COLOR THAT SYMBOLIZES THE VALUE OF HUMAN LIFE.

ANYONE CAN JOIN THIS CAMPAIGN BY PLEDGING TO WEAR ORANGE ON JUNE 3RD, THE FIRST FRIDAY IN JUNE IN 2022 TO HELP RAISE AWARENESS ABOUT GUN VIOLENCE BY WEARING ORANGE ON JUNE 3RD.

AMERICANS WILL RAISE AWARENESS ABOUT GUN VIOLENCE AND HONOR THE LIVES OF GUN VIOLENCE VICTIMS AND SURVIVORS.

WE RENEW OUR COMMITMENT TO REDUCE GUN VIOLENCE AND PLEDGED TO DO ALL WE CAN TO KEEP FIREARMS OUT OF THE WRONG HANDS AND ENCOURAGE RESPONSIBLE GUN OWNERSHIP TO HELP KEEP OUR CHILDREN SAFE. NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT I MAYOR PAUL DEASY OF FLAGSTAFF DECLARE THE FIRST FRIDAY IN JUNE, JUNE 3RD 2022 TO BE NATIONAL GUN VIOLENCE AWARENESS DAY.

I ENCOURAGE ALL CITIZENS TO SUPPORT THEIR LOCAL COMMUNITIES EFFORTS TO PREVENT THE TRAGIC EFFECTS OF GUN VIOLENCE AND TO HONOR AND VALUE HUMAN LIVES.

MARY, WOULD YOU LIKE TO SAY A FEW WORDS? I WANT TO THANK CITY COUNCIL AND MAYOR DEASY FOR BEING A FRIEND TO ALL THE COMMUNITY AND COMMUNITY SAFETY. AND I WOULD LIKE TO.

I HOPE HE WILL. THE CITY COUNCIL AND THE MAYOR WILL CONTINUE TO WORK TOWARDS THE SAFETY IN ALL THE DIFFERENT WAYS, WHETHER IT'S GUN VIOLENCE, WHETHER IT'S TRAFFIC, ALL THE DIFFERENT WAYS THAT THEY CAN TO KEEP OUR CHILDREN SAFE.

AND I'D LIKE TO INVITE PEOPLE HERE AND ALL THE PEOPLE THAT ARE LISTENING TO OUR EVENT ON FRIDAY, JUNE 3RD, FROM 5:30 TO 7:30.

IT'LL TAKE PLACE AT THE COUNTY COURTHOUSE LAWN AND THERE'LL BE A BLOOD DRIVE THAT'S GOING ON AT THE SAME TIME.

IT STARTS AT 3 TO 7 AND OUR EVENT STARTS AT 5:30.

WE'LL HAVE SPEAKERS. IT'S A FAMILY FRIENDLY EVENT WHO WANT TO GET TOGETHER AND TO SHOW OUR SUPPORT FOR GUN VIOLENCE PREVENTION AND TO HONOR THE VICTIMS AND SURVIVORS OF GUN VIOLENCE. THANK YOU.

[7. Proclamation: PRIDE Month]

[00:10:26]

IS ALSO PRIDE MONTH.

AND DEB, IF YOU'D LIKE TO COME DOWN AND.

YEAH, CREW, THEN THAT'LL BE AWESOME.

OH.

ALL RIGHT. THE MISSION OF THE CITY OF FLAGSTAFF IS TO ENHANCE THE QUALITY OF LIFE AND PRESERVE THE VALUES OF OUR COMMUNITY, AND AN IMPORTANT PART OF WHICH IS EMBRACING, RESPECTING AND CELEBRATING DIVERSITY.

WE TAKE PRIDE IN RECOGNIZING THAT CIVIL RIGHTS AND HUMAN RIGHTS CONSTRUCT A STRONGER FOUNDATION FOR FLAGSTAFF AS AN INCLUSIVE COMMUNITY BY PROMOTING AN ENVIRONMENT THAT IS WELCOMING AND ACCEPTING AND RESPECTFUL OF THE DIGNITY OF ALL PEOPLE.

FLAGSTAFF IS COMMITTED TO SUPPORTING VISIBILITY, DIGNITY AND EQUALITY FOR LGBTQIA 2S+ PEOPLE IN OUR DIVERSE COMMUNITY.

WE OBSERVE PRIDE MONTH WITH THE RAISING OF THE RAINBOW FLAG TO HONOR AND THE HISTORY OF THE LGBTQIA2S+ LIBERATION MOVEMENT AND TO SUPPORT THE RIGHTS OF ALL CITIZENS.

TO EXPERIENCE EQUALITY AND FREEDOM FROM DISCRIMINATION.

WE KNOW WITH ALARM THAT ACROSS THE NATION LGBTQIA2S+ PLUS PERSONS, ESPECIALLY TRANSGENDER PERSONS OF COLOR, HAVE BEEN TARGETED BY ACTS OF VIOLENCE AND STATE LAWS ARE BEING ENACTED DENYING TRANSGENDER YOUTH ATHLETES HEALTH CARE AND BASIC CIVIL HUMAN RIGHTS.

IT IS ESSENTIAL TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE NEED FOR EDUCATION AND AWARENESS REMAINS VITAL TO END DISCRIMINATION AND PREJUDICE.

CELEBRATING PRIDE MONTH INFLUENCES AWARENESS AND PROVIDES SUPPORT AND ADVOCACY FOR THE FLAGSTAFF COMMUNITY AND IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE ACTION AND ENGAGE IN DIALOG TO STRENGTHEN ALLIANCES, BUILD ACCEPTANCE AND ADVANCE EQUAL RIGHTS.

HAND IN HAND, WE COMMIT TO CONTINUING OUR EFFORTS TO MAKE FLAGSTAFF A COMMUNITY INCLUSIVE OF ITS LESBIAN, GAY, BISEXUAL, TRANSGENDER AND QUEER AND QUESTIONING POPULATIONS.

OUR TWO SPIRIT PLUS AND THE NORTHERN ARIZONA PRIDE ASSOCIATION IS CELEBRATING THE ANNUAL PRIDE MONTH IN JUNE 2022, THE GOAL OF WHICH IS TO CREATE A CONSISTENT EFFORT IN SUPPORTING AND FOSTERING ACCEPTANCE FOR THE LGBTQIA2S+ COMMUNITY AND PERSONS.

IN PARTNERSHIP, THE CITY OF FLAGSTAFF COMMISSION ON DIVERSITY AWARENESS AND NORTHERN ARIZONA PRIDE ASSOCIATION RECOMMEND THE DESIGNATION OF JUNE 2022 AS LESBIAN, GAY, BISEXUAL, TRANSGENDER AND QUEER QUESTIONING TWO SPIRIT PLUS MONTH IN UNISON WITH NATIONAL AND STATEWIDE OBSERVANCES.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, PAUL DEASY MAYOR OF CITY FLAGSTAFF, DO HEREBY PROCLAIM JUNE 2022 AS LESBIAN, GAY, BISEXUAL, TRANSGENDER AND QUEER QUESTIONING TWO SPIRIT PLUS MONTH IN THE CITY OF FLAGSTAFF AND RECOGNITION OF CELEBRATING AND EMBRACING EQUALITY WITH COMPASSION AND RESPECT.

[INAUDIBLE] I'M DEE WEGWERT, AND I'M HERE ON BEHALF OF THE COMMISSION ON DIVERSITY AWARENESS, AND I WANT TO THANK MAYOR DEASY AND THE CITY COUNCIL FOR MAKING THIS PROCLAMATION AND FOR PROMOTING THE SAFETY AND INCLUSIVITY OF OUR LESBIAN, GAY, BISEXUAL, TRANSGENDER AND QUEER CITIZENS OF OUR COMMUNITY.

AND I ALSO SPECIFICALLY WANT TO THANK COMMISSIONER JEAN TONER FROM MY COMMISSION AND DEB TAYLOR FROM NORTHERN ARIZONA, PRIDE FOR WORKING ON THIS PROCLAMATION.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP WITH THAT.

ALL RIGHT. THAT BRINGS US DOWN TO AGENDA ITEM NUMBER EIGHT, THE ANNUAL UPDATE FOR MOONSHOT AT THE NORTHERN ARIZONA CENTER FOR ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND TECHNOLOGY.

[8. The Annual Update from Moonshot at the Northern Arizona Center for Entrepreneurship and Technology (NACET) City Council and the public will be updated about Moonshot's outcomes and initiatives with business development and the management of the City-owned Incubator and Accelerator at the NACET campus.]

NACET. I THINK WE'VE GOT MR.

[00:15:06]

MCINTYRE HERE AND FOR THE CREW.

DIANA WHITE, MAYOR.

[INAUDIBLE] I'M DAVID MACINTYRE. I AM YOUR COMMUNITY INVESTMENT DIRECTOR.

THANK YOU, STACEY.

ALL RIGHT, SHE KEEPS US STRAIGHT.

I KNOW EVERYTHING'S DIALED IN.

AS YOU MAY RECALL, THE CITY HAS A RELATIONSHIP WITH MOONSHOT THROUGH SERVICE AGREEMENT AND THROUGH A MASTER LEASE.

TO PROVIDE BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT AND BUSINESS SUPPORT SERVICES TO HELP GROW ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN THIS COMMUNITY AND TO PROVIDE PROPERTY MANAGEMENT IN THE CITY'S INCUBATOR AND ACCELERATOR FACILITIES.

THESE FACILITIES WERE BUILT WITH SOME SUPPORT FROM THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ADMINISTRATION, AND THE SPACE IS THEREFORE SUBJECT TO GUIDELINES ABOUT WHAT USES ARE APPROPRIATE AND IS FOCUSED ON VERY SPECIFIC USES AND BUSINESS SECTORS.

YOU'LL HEAR MORE ABOUT THIS IN THE PRESENTATION TO COME.

BUT STAFF IS PLEASED THAT OVER THE PAST YEAR WE HAVE SEEN BOTH OCCUPANCY AND BENEFITS TO THE COMMUNITY INCREASE COMING OUT OF THE PANDEMIC.

IF YOU'LL INDULGE ME A BRIEF EXAMPLE OF SOME OF THE SUCCESS CATALYST, A SPACE TECHNOLOGY COMPANY, THAT COMPANY THAT WE'VE SPOKEN ABOUT WITH YOU BEFORE, CAME TO FLAGSTAFF IN PART THROUGH THE FLAGSTAFF BUSINESS ATTRACTION INCENTIVE.

THEY MADE THEIR FIRST HOME IN THE BUSINESS ACCELERATOR.

A YEAR LATER, THEY'VE USED THAT SPACE, THEY'VE RECEIVED THE SERVICES AVAILABLE, AND THEY'RE ALREADY GROWING AND NOW GRADUATING INTO COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE HERE IN FLAGSTAFF.

IT'S EXCITING TO SEE THEIR GROWTH AND TO KNOW THAT THE CITY AND MOONSHOT WERE ABLE TO PROVIDE A LITTLE SUPPORT TO HELP THEM THRIVE HERE IN OUR COMMUNITY.

THE INTENT OF THESE FACILITIES IS FOR COMPANIES TO GET THERE, TO SCALE, TO GROW, AND EVENTUALLY TO MOVE OUT, BUT TO BE READY TO THRIVE HERE WHEN THEY DO.

WITH THAT, I'D LIKE TO INTRODUCE MOONSHOT'S EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE NACET CAMPUS, DIANA WHITE, TO PROVIDE THEIR ANNUAL UPDATE.

BUT I WILL REMAIN AVAILABLE FOR QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS AS WELL.

GREETINGS, MAYOR, VICE MAYOR AND COUNCIL.

MY NAME IS DIANA WHITE, AND I AM, AS DAVE SAID, THE NEWLY APPOINTED EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF MOONSHOT AT NACET FLAGSTAFF CAMPUS.

I'VE BEEN WITH MOONSHOT IN SEVERAL DIFFERENT CAPACITIES FOR A FEW YEARS NOW, STARTING WITH ME BEING THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE SBDC FOR COCONINO COUNTY.

AT THAT TIME, MOONSHOT WAS MY PARTNER, MY SPONSOR, AND THEN WE MOVED ON TO COCONINO COMMUNITY COLLEGE.

IN MY SEVERAL ROLES, I RAN THE CHANDLER INNOVATIONS INCUBATOR IN CHANDLER, ARIZONA, THROUGH THE COVID PERIOD AND THEN WAS PLEASED TO BE OFFERED THE POSITION TO COME BACK UP AND RUN THE FLAGSTAFF CAMPUS.

AS I LOVE FLAGSTAFF, I STILL HAVE PROPERTY IN FLAGSTAFF.

I'M A LUMBERJACK AND I'M ENSCONCED IN THE COMMUNITY.

SO WITHOUT FURTHER ADO, I'D LOVE TO PRESENT UPDATES TODAY FOR YOU FROM MOONSHOT.

SOME OF THESE FACTS AND DATA'S AND STATS ARE PRIOR TO MY TENURE AS EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, BUT I WILL HAVE ANSWERS FOR YOU IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, AND I'M HOPING THAT DAVE CAN MOVE THE SLIDE DECK ALONG FOR ME AS I GO.

SO IF YOU CAN SEE ON THIS FIRST SLIDE, IF WE'RE ON THE MOONSHOT LANDING PAGE SLIDE, THERE HAVE BEEN A COUPLE OF ADDITIONS SINCE PROBABLY THE LAST TIME YOU HAVE HAD AN UPDATE FOR MOONSHOT.

SO WE HAVE OUR ARIZONA STITCH LAB, WHICH IS AN INCUBATOR, A TEXTILES INCUBATOR IN TUCSON, ARIZONA, THAT FOCUSES ON TEXTILES, WEARABLE TECH AND PROVIDING A GREATER SKILL SETS TO THE WORKFORCE THAT WORKS IN THE FABRICS INDUSTRY.

WE ALSO HAVE OUR MOONSHOT SATELLITE.

THIS IS A PROGRAM THAT WE HAVE FOR OTHER CITIES AND TOWNSHIPS AND RURAL AREAS IN NORTHERN ARIZONA THAT NEED GUIDANCE.

PITCH COMPETITION HELP, MENTORING FROM OUR VARIOUS MENTORS ACROSS THE MOONSHOT CONTINUUM.

WE PROVIDE THOSE SERVICES THROUGH THE MOONSHOT SATELLITE AND THEN THE MOONSHOT ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT TOOL THAT WE ARE BUILDING THAT IS MORE MOONSHOT CORPORATE. SCOTT CAN SPEAK TO THAT, BUT THAT IS IN THE WORKS AND WE'RE EXCITED ABOUT PROVIDING THAT SERVICE TO RURAL COMMUNITIES AS WELL.

NEXT SLIDE. SO I'M GOING TO GIVE THE YEAR IN REVIEW.

THIS IS GOING TO SPAN 2019 AND THEN TELL YOU WHAT WE'RE DOING IN THE FIRST QUARTER OF 2022.

LOOK AT THE NUMBERS.

SO WHEN WE TALK ABOUT INVESTMENT FUNDS, WE'RE TALKING ABOUT OUR MOONSHOT FLAGSTAFF TENANTS AND WE'RE TALKING ABOUT ANY FUNDING THEY WOULD HAVE

[00:20:02]

RECEIVED, WHETHER IT BE COMMERCIAL LENDING OR OWNER INFUSION EQUITY SELLING SERIES RAISING.

ANY OF THAT WOULD BE CONSIDERED INVESTMENT FUNDS.

AS YOU CAN SEE, IN 2019, WE DID 3.4 MILLION, WHICH WAS GREAT.

I THINK THAT 2020 COULD PROBABLY BE CALLED A MULLIGAN FOR MANY THINGS, BUT IT DIPPED CONSIDERABLY IN 2020 AND THEN ROSE CONSIDERABLY IN 2021, WITH ALMOST 8 MILLION IN FUNDING OF SOME SORT FOR OUR TENANTS ON OUR CAMPUS.

AND IN QUARTER ONE, WE ARE UP TO ALMOST 3 MILLION IN FUNDING SO FAR.

NEXT SLIDE. REVENUE GENERATED BY OUR TENANTS ON CAMPUS.

IN 2019, WE WERE AT 5.6 MILLION.

2020 ACTUALLY DID NOT TAKE AS SEVERE OF A DIP AS WE THOUGHT IT WOULD.

WE CAME IN AT 4.7 MILLION IN REVENUE FOR THE COMPANIES AND IN 2021, WE REALLY CAME BACK STRONG WITH ALMOST 30 MILLION IN REVENUE FOR THE FLAGSTAFF CAMPUS.

AND IN 2022, IN THE FIRST QUARTER ALONE, WE'RE AT 5.6 MILLION IN REVENUE GENERATED FOR OUR TENANTS ON CAMPUS.

NEXT SLIDE. JOBS, WHICH IS THE CRUX OF OF WHAT WE DO.

IN 2019, WE WERE ABLE TO RETAIN 259 JOBS THAT WERE CREATED IN 2018 WITH 44 NEW JOBS CREATED IN THAT YEAR.

IN 2020, WHERE WE THOUGHT WE WOULD SEE A TREMENDOUS DIP IN, NOT JUST JOBS RETAINED, BUT JOBS CREATED.

WE THOUGHT REALLY WE WOULDN'T SEE ANY.

WE ACTUALLY RETAIN 298 JOBS AND CREATED TEN NEW JOBS.

AND IN 2021, FOR THAT YEAR, WE RETAINED 307 JOBS AND CREATED 77 NEW JOBS.

AND WE HOPE TO SEE THAT NUMBER GROW SUBSTANTIALLY IN 2022.

NEXT SLIDE. SO OUR OCCUPANCY RATES FOR 2021 THAT DIPPED IN 2020 AND THERE WERE CONCERNS ABOUT THAT, BUT THEY QUICKLY REBOUNDED.

WE ENDED UP WITH A TOTAL OF 69% IN OCCUPANCY, WITH 100% OF THE INCUBATOR BEING OCCUPIED AND 60% OF THE ACCELERATOR BEING OCCUPIED.

WE ALSO WELCOMED TEN NEW TENANTS TO THE CAMPUS IN 2021, WHICH ARE ALL LISTED HERE.

NEXT SLIDE. CURRENT OCCUPANCY AS OF MAY 2022 IS AT 78%, AND IT'S STILL GROWING.

WE STILL HAVE INQUIRIES AND WE ARE CREATING A LITTLE BIT OF A WAITING LIST, SO THAT BODES WELL FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR.

NEXT SLIDE. WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT SOME OF THE EVENTS THAT WE'VE HAD IN THE PAST AND A FORWARD LOOKING EVENT.

NEXT SLIDE. SO OUR THIRD ANNUAL AZ PIONEER PITCH COMPETITION WAS HELD IN FLAGSTAFF, NOVEMBER 12TH AND 13TH OF 2021. WE HAD THREE WINNERS, BUT WE HAD SOME GREAT SPONSORS.

FIRST, THAT I'D LIKE TO TALK ABOUT.

APS IS ALWAYS A GREAT PARTNER.

THE ARIZONA COMMERCE AUTHORITY IS ALWAYS A GREAT PARTNER.

AND I BELIEVE THIS IS THE FIRST YEAR THAT WE WERE ABLE TO HAVE LIVE PLANS FULLY ON BOARD AND THEY ARE SPONSORING IN-KIND BY PROVIDING US ACCESS TO THEIR BUSINESS PLAN BUILDING TOOL.

AND WE PROVIDE THAT TO OUR WINNERS AND TO SOME OF OUR TENANTS ON ON CAMPUS.

SO THAT'S WONDERFUL.

AND OUR LOCAL SPONSORS, SUN WEST BANK, OF COURSE, CITY OF FLAGSTAFF, NORDSTROM AND ASSOCIATES, WANDERLUST BREWING, DRINKING HORN MEADERY.

WE'RE ALL THANKFUL FOR THE SUPPORT THAT EVERYONE GIVES US IN FLAGSTAFF, AND WINNERS FROM THAT EVENT WERE POWER LAB GURNEE LABS, WHICH IS NOW CALLED CROSSWALK LABS AND TAKE YOUR TIME LLC.

THOSE WERE THE WINNERS OF THE FLAGSTAFF PITCH EVENT FOR 2021.

NEXT SLIDE. I'M PROUD TO SAY THAT MY FIRST KIND OF OFFICIAL EVENT ON CAMPUS IN MY NEW ROLE WAS THE INNOVATION WASTE CHALLENGE EVENT, WHICH IS KIND OF FULL CIRCLE BECAUSE I REMEMBER THE INITIATION OF THE INNOVATE WASTE CHALLENGE.

I WAS A PART OF THAT FIRST TEAM WITH JOHN SALTONSTALL AND EVERYONE ELSE IN THE SUSTAINABILITY DEPARTMENT OF THE CITY AND FLAGSTAFF.

AND IT WAS AN AMAZING EVENT TO ME AND I WAS SO HAPPY TO COME BACK AND SEE THAT IT WAS STILL GOING STRONG.

WE HAD THREE WINNERS.

OUR FIRST PLACE WINNER FOR THE INNOVATE WASTE CHALLENGE WAS RESTORATION SOILS.

[00:25:04]

SECOND PLACE WINNER WAS CROSSWALK LABS, WHICH IF YOU CAN REMEMBER, WAS ORIGINALLY CALLED GURNEY LABS AND HONORABLE MENTION WINDSWEPT ACRES.

WINDSWEPT ACRES HAD AN HONORABLE MENTION.

THEY ARE NOT RESIDENTS OF THE CITY OF FLAGSTAFF, BUT THEY ARE WORKING TO CAN AND REPURPOSE UNDESIRABLE FOODS.

SO THERE'S AN ENTIRE MARKET NOW ON FOODS THAT DON'T LOOK SO PRETTY THAT DON'T END UP ON SUPERMARKET SHELVES AND END UP IN LANDFILLS.

THEY TAKE THOSE FOODS AND THEY CAN THEM AND THEY GIVE THEM A SECOND LIFE.

AND WE BELIEVE SO STRONGLY IN THE MOVEMENT THAT THEY'RE DOING AND THEIR FOOD IS DELICIOUS.

AND WE THINK THAT AS THIS GROWS, IT WILL BE JOB CREATION IN FLAGSTAFF AS WELL AS THEY EXPAND TO DIFFERENT AREAS.

SO WE'RE SUPER EXCITED ABOUT THEM AND GAVE THEM HONORABLE MISSION MENTION AND A SMALLER PRIZE.

BUT 31,000 IN CASH PRIZES WAS GIVEN FOR INNOVATE WASTE AND I HOPE THAT CONTINUES TO GROW.

IT'S AN AMAZING PROGRAM.

NEXT SLIDE. WE'RE GOING TO HAVE OUR SECOND ANNUAL SHOEMAKER AWARDS, WHICH IS JUNE 17TH OF THIS YEAR.

THE EVENT IS SOLD OUT, ALL THE TABLES ARE SOLD, AND WE'RE GETTING ALL THE NAMES IN PLACE NOW.

WE ARE THANKFUL TO OUR SPONSORS AND PARTNERS, CITY OF FLAGSTAFF AGAIN AND APS.

WE'RE GOING TO RECOGNIZE SOME PRETTY IMPORTANT PEOPLE THAT HAVE DONE AMAZING THINGS OVER THE PAST YEAR.

SO I'M SUPER EXCITED FOR THAT EVENT AND I WILL BE THERE.

AND IF ANYONE FROM MAYOR AND COUNCIL WILL BE THERE, I WOULD LOVE TO SAY HELLO IN PERSON.

I'M SORRY I COULDN'T BE THERE IN PERSON TODAY.

NEXT SLIDE. SOME OTHER PROGRAMS THAT WE HAVE REALLY QUICKLY.

SO WE HAVE THE ENTREPRENEURSHIP INTERN CERTIFICATION THAT WE'RE DOING WITH THE NAU, INCLUDING FRANKIE, THE COLLEGE OF BUSINESS AND THE SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING.

THAT IS A VERY SUCCESSFUL PROGRAM IN WHICH WE BASICALLY TEACH THESE NEW SOON TO BE GRADUATE STUDENTS, NOT JUST HOW TO APPLY THEMSELVES FOR A JOB, BUT TO REALLY FIGURE OUT HOW THEY FIT IN, WHAT WHAT DO THEY BRING TO THE TABLE AND HOW BEST CAN THEY SHOWCASE THAT? AND WE'RE VERY PROUD TO SAY THAT OUR FIRST GROUP THAT GRADUATED FROM THIS PROGRAM, IF YOU WILL, WHEN WE HAD OUR PRESENTATION, WHICH IS THE LAST CLASS, I THINK, AND I'LL GET YOU ACCURATE NUMBERS, CORRECT NUMBERS LATER.

AT LEAST FOUR OF THE STUDENTS WERE OFFERED JOBS FROM THE DIFFERENT COMPANIES THAT WERE REPRESENTED ON THE CALL THAT DAY.

AND WE HOPE THE SAME WILL HAPPEN WITH THIS NEXT GROUP OF STUDENTS.

AND THEN WE HAVE OUR WINNING BUSINESS.

ONE OF MY FOCUS IS COMING TO THE CAMPUS IS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE KEEP INCLUSION FRONT OF MIND AND WE MEAN BUSINESS, WHICH IS FOCUSED ON WOMEN ENTREPRENEURS AND BUSINESS LEADERS, HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A VERY LONG TIME.

IT'S STILL SUCCESSFUL.

WE JUST FINALLY CAME BACK IN PERSON AND OUR ATTENDANCE IS GROWING WITH EACH EVENT THAT WE HAVE IN PERSON.

IT'S A WONDERFUL PROGRAM THAT WE'RE ACTUALLY GOING TO EXPAND UPON.

AND THEN I'M ALSO GOING TO INTRODUCE NEW PROGRAMING THAT LENDS TO MORE DIVERSITY ON CAMPUS.

NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE.

AND THAT IS IT FOR MY UPDATES.

I THANK MAYOR, VICE MAYOR AND COUNCIL VERY MUCH FORGIVE ME THIS TIME.

AND IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, I'M HERE.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

COUNCIL, DO WE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS AT THIS TIME? VICE MAYOR. THANK YOU AND GREAT TO SEE YOU ON THE SCREEN, HOPEFULLY IN PERSON SOON.

I'M JUST WONDERING, CAN YOU EXPAND? I KNOW YOU MENTIONED IT A LITTLE BIT.

CAN YOU EXPAND ON SCOTT MOVING DOWN SOUTH AND MAYBE SOME OF THE PROGRAMS THAT ARE HAPPENING? I'M NOT SURE IF EVERYONE KNOWS, BUT MOONSHOT HAS EXPANDED, IT SOUNDS LIKE.

SO CAN YOU EXPAND A LITTLE BIT? THANKS. YES, ABSOLUTELY.

SO. DURING COVID, IT WAS A CHALLENGING TIME.

ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE REALIZED IS MOONSHOT HAD A GREAT MANY THINGS TO OFFER DIFFERENT CITIES AND MUNICIPALITIES WHEN IT CAME TO ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT.

AND SO WE GAINED SEVERAL NEW CONTRACTS THAT WE DIDN'T HAVE BEFORE.

AND SCOTT DID ACTUALLY RELOCATE DOWN TO THE VALLEY TO KIND OF BE CLOSER TO TRAVEL, IF YOU WILL, TO ALL OF THESE DIFFERENT AREAS, TUCSON BEING ONE OF THEM.

IN THAT DISCOVERY OF THE GROWTH, WE REALIZED THAT IT WAS IMPORTANT THAT OUR OUR FLAGSHIP WHERE WE STARTED

[00:30:09]

ISN'T LEFT BEHIND AND DOESN'T SUFFER FROM THE GROWTH.

AND SO THAT EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR POSITION WAS CREATED AND IT WAS DECIDED THAT I WOULD BE ABLE TO COME AND TRULY BE REFLECTIVE OF WHAT MOONSHOT FEELS ABOUT THE PARTNERSHIP WITH THE CITY OF FLAGSTAFF, THAT THERE WOULD BE SOMEONE IN FLAGSTAFF READY TO COMMIT AND ENGAGE WITH THE COMMUNITY AND LET CORPORATE, WHICH IS THE ARM THAT WE CALL SCOTT NOW AND HIS TEAM, LET CORPORATE CONTINUE THEIR GROWTH.

BUT I'M COMMITTED TO THE CITY OF FLAGSTAFF AND MAKING SURE THAT THE FLAGSTAFF CAMPUS HAS WHATEVER RESOURCES IT NEEDS.

I WOULD ALSO ADD THAT THIS GROWTH THAT MOONSHOT IS SEEING IS IS BENEFICIAL IN SEVERAL DIFFERENT WAYS.

IT SHINES A SPOTLIGHT ON WHERE IT ALL STARTED.

FLAGSTAFF IS OUR FLAGSHIP, NO PUN INTENDED, AND WILL ALWAYS BE NEAR AND DEAR TO WHO WE ARE AS AS AN ORGANIZATION.

BECAUSE WITHOUT YOUR SUPPORT, WE WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GROW AS WE HAVE.

SO IT SHEDS A LIGHT ON THE FLAGSHIP CAMPUS AND IT CREATES MORE OPPORTUNITY, I DARE SAY, GLOBALLY, FOR US TO BE PUT ON THE MAP AND SEEN AS A PLACE THAT HAS SOME OF THE BEST RESOURCES FOR ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND THE BEST QUALITY OF LIFE.

AND I THINK THAT IS A BENEFIT.

EVEN IF IT'S NOT FLAGSTAFF GOING OUT THERE, IT'S MOONSHOT CORPORATE.

IT STILL BENEFITS US IN FLAGSTAFF.

I HOPE THAT ANSWERED YOUR QUESTION VICE MAYOR.

IT DOES. THANK YOU.

SOME VERY EXCITING THINGS.

I LOVE GOING TO NACET AND LOOKING AT ALL THE PROJECTS AND BUSINESSES GOING ON AND I THINK YOU'RE DOING A TERRIFIC JOB AND THANK YOU FOR WORKING HARD ON THIS. I HOPE TO DO MORE.

THANK YOU, MS.. WHITE. I'M NOT SEEING ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL, SO.

YEAH, I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME AND GIVING US THE UPDATE.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU VERY MUCH, COUNCIL.

HAVE A GREAT EVENING. ALL RIGHT.

WITH THAT, WE'RE DOWN TO AGENDA ITEM NINE, THE REGIONAL PLAN 2045, COLLABORATIVE PROCESS DISCUSSION.

[9. Regional Plan 2045 Collaborative Process Discussion Feedback from the Council to inform the core collaborative process for the Flagstaff Regional Plan update, including participation techniques, compensation for ambassadors, assistance from community members, and partnerships.]

GOOD AFTERNOON, MAYOR, VICE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF COUNCIL.

MY NAME IS SARAH DOCTOR.

I AM THE COMPREHENSIVE AND NEIGHBORHOOD PLANNING MANAGER FOR THE CITY OF FLAGSTAFF AND I AM BACK WITH YOU.

AFTER A YEAR OF OUR FIRST YEAR OF OUTREACH ON THE FLAGSTAFF REGIONAL PLAN TO DISCUSS THE UPCOMING PHASES OF WORK ON THIS PROJECT AND TO JOIN IN THE CONVERSATION OF HOW WE CONDUCT THE COLLABORATIVE PROCESS GOING FORWARD.

I BELIEVE WITH ME TODAY ON VIRTUALLY IS MELISSA SHAW, WHO IS THE LONG RANGE PLANNER FOR COCONINO COUNTY AND MY CO PROJECT LEAD AS THIS IS A SHARED PROJECT BETWEEN THE CITY AND COCONINO COUNTY.

MELISSA, ARE YOU THERE? THERE YOU GO. YES, I'M HERE.

HELLO. GOOD AFTERNOON.

GREAT. SO TODAY WE ARE GOING TO DO A SHORT REVIEW OF THE PUBLIC PARTICIPATION PLAN, OUTLINE AND GUIDING PRINCIPLES, WHICH, YOU KNOW, IT'S BEEN A LITTLE WHILE SINCE WE PUT IT UP ON THE SCREEN.

SO WE'LL GO OVER THAT ONE MORE TIME.

WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT THE OUTREACH WE'VE COMPLETED AND WHAT IS UNDERWAY FOR THE SUMMER, THE UPCOMING OUTREACH OPPORTUNITIES, AND ASK FOR YOUR FEEDBACK ON A FEW ISSUES OF HOW WE WOULD BE ADVERTISING AND EVALUATING A CONSULTANT IN THE FUTURE TO HELP US WITH OUR COLLABORATIVE AND DELIBERATIVE PROCESSES IN PHASE TWO.

WE ALSO HAVE A DISCUSSION OF WHETHER OR NOT THERE IS A DESIRE TO PURSUE A COMPENSATION OPTION FOR PARTICIPANTS.

SO FIRST I'D LIKE TO GIVE JUST TWO QUICK SLIDES FOR ANYONE WHO'S WATCHING, WHO DOESN'T KNOW WHAT THE REGIONAL PLAN IS.

I KNOW COUNCIL ALREADY KNOWS, BUT THE REGIONAL PLAN IS THE GENERAL PLAN FOR THE CITY OF FLAGSTAFF AND AN AREA PLAN FOR COCONINO COUNTY AND IT CONTAINS 97 GOALS AND 508 POLICIES.

IT IS THE ONLY DOCUMENT BESIDES THE CITY CHARTER THAT IS RATIFIED BY VOTERS AND SERVES AS A POLICY DOCUMENT FOR FLAGSTAFF.

IT HAS A GENERALIZED LAND USE MAP THAT IDENTIFIES ACTIVITY CENTERS THAT WERE BASED ON ROBUST SCENARIO PLANNING AND PROVIDES A TRANSPORTATION MODELING BASIS AND WATER MODELING BASIS FOR THE CITY AND FOR METRO PLAN.

THIS GENERALIZED LAND USE MAP IS CALLED OUR FUTURE GROWTH ILLUSTRATION.

[00:35:04]

AND WHEN THERE IS AN APPLICATION FOR A REZONING OR AN ANNEXATION, IT MUST BE FOUND IN CONFORMANCE WITH THIS MAP AND WITH THE POLICIES.

AND SO WE REGULARLY HAVE CONVERSATIONS WITH THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS, THE CITY COUNCIL AND THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSIONS AT THE CITY AND THE COUNTY.

ABOUT THIS MAP, WHAT IT MEANS AND HOW IT CHARTS PATH FOR THE FUTURE OF THE COMMUNITY.

IT'S MY SUPER FAST UPDATE.

OUR PLAN FOR UPDATING THE REGIONAL PLAN AND SENDING IT BACK TO VOTERS IN 2024 OR 2025 IS THAT WE ARE WORKING IN FOUR PHASES. THIS FIRST PHASE, REALLY ONE OF THE EMPHASIS WAS TO REALLY LOOK AT OUR DATA.

THERE'S 180 METRICS THAT CAN BE ASSOCIATED WITH THE REGIONAL PLAN TO GET IT ORGANIZED, TO ANALYZE IT, TO SHARE THAT INFORMATION WITH THE PUBLIC, AND THEN TO CREATE SOME ART AND EXCITEMENT AND GATHER PEOPLE WHO ARE INTERESTED IN WORKING WITH US TOGETHER ON A COLLABORATIVE PROCESS TO DEVELOP THE NEXT PLAN.

WE HAVE BEEN WORKING ON THAT FOR THE LAST YEAR AND WE'LL TALK A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT WHAT EXACTLY HAS BEEN DONE IN THAT AREA.

BUT PHASE TWO IS THE ONE THAT IS COMING UP FOR US, AND IT IS A VERY IMPORTANT PHASE BECAUSE IT IS THE ONE THAT TALKS ABOUT TRADE OFFS AND FUTURE SCENARIOS THAT MAY NOT LOOK LIKE THE WAY FLAGSTAFF LOOKS TODAY.

AS THE LAST THREE YEARS HAVE SHOWN US, THERE ARE OFTEN UNEXPECTED AND OUTSIDE PRESSURES THAT CAN INFLUENCE HOW OUR COMMUNITY GROWS AND CHANGES.

AND WE WILL BE WORKING WITH THE COMMUNITY TO TALK THROUGH SOME OF OUR ANTICIPATION OF THINGS THAT ARE POSITIVE, ARE WORRIES ABOUT THINGS THAT MAY BE INFLUENCING OUR COMMUNITY IN A WAY WE DON'T WANT TO SEE, AND WHAT THE TRADE OFFS ARE BETWEEN DIFFERENT PATHS THAT WE COULD TAKE AS A COMMUNITY MOVING FORWARD.

THIS IS GOING TO BE A VERY ITERATIVE PROCESS.

SO THROUGHOUT THE NEXT YEAR WE'RE GOING TO BE HAVING WORKSHOPS AND SURVEYS AND FEEDBACK LOOPS THAT FEED ON EACH OTHER TO START BUILDING THAT VISION AND UNDERSTANDING WHETHER THAT VISION IS REALISTIC AND WHAT COULD IMPACT IT IN THE FUTURE.

I KNOW I HAVE LOTS OF QUESTIONS FROM PEOPLE ABOUT WHETHER PHASE TWO WILL INCLUDE AN ADVISORY COMMITTEE, AND THE DECISION FROM A YEAR AGO WAS THAT WE WOULD HAVE A COLLABORATIVE PROCESS, BUT IT WOULD NOT BE ONE THAT WAS DIRECTLY APPOINTED TO SIT AND HELP US WRITE THE PLAN.

WE DISCUSSED SAVING THAT FOR PHASE THREE WHEN WE'RE ACTUALLY SITTING DOWN AND WRITING AND EVALUATING POLICY DRIVEN TEXT.

THE REASONS FOR THAT WERE THAT THE PREVIOUS ADVISORY COMMITTEE MET OVER FIVE YEARS AND HAD A LOT OF TURNOVER AND HAD TROUBLE MAINTAINING CONSISTENCY AND DIVERSITY IN ITS MEMBERSHIP. AND SO TO KEEP THE TASK CLEAR AND SHORT, THERE'S NOT A PLAN FOR AN ADVISORY COMMITTEE IN PHASE TWO, BUT RATHER THIS COLLABORATIVE PROCESS THAT WILL BE DISCUSSING IN MORE DETAIL TONIGHT.

AND THEN, OF COURSE, COUNCIL AND THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS WILL NEED TO COME UP WITH AN ORDER OF OPERATION FOR ADOPTING THE REGIONAL PLAN AS IT'S ADOPTED DIFFERENTLY IN THE CITY AND THE COUNTY. LAST TIME WE TRIED TO DO IT SIMULTANEOUSLY AND IT ENDED UP THAT WE ADOPTED SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF THE REGIONAL PLAN, WHICH I THINK THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AND COUNCIL HAVE BOTH PREVIOUSLY EXPRESSED THAT THEY WOULD LIKE IT TO BE MORE SYNCHRONIZED SO THAT WHATEVER IS ADOPTED IN THE CITY IS THE SAME AS WHAT THE COUNTY ENDS UP ADOPTING. WE HAVE SEVERAL GUIDING PRINCIPLES FOR THIS PROCESS.

THE FIRST ONE IS RIGHT PEOPLE, RIGHT AGENDA, RIGHT TIMING.

WE HAVE NOT JUMPED INTO COMMUNITY WIDE MEETINGS THAT BRING A LOT OF PEOPLE TOGETHER WITHOUT A CLEAR PURPOSE.

WE HAVE BEEN HAVING VERY FOCUSED MEETINGS AND ACCEPTING INVITATIONS TO HAVE FOCUSED MEETINGS WITH ANY COMMUNITY GROUP THAT'S INTERESTED IN MEETING WITH US, AND ESPECIALLY WE'RE PICKING THAT UP THIS SUMMER.

WE'VE PROBABLY BEEN TO THREE OR FOUR ORGANIZATIONAL MEETINGS IN THE LAST MONTH.

WE EXPECT THAT TO BE EVEN MORE ROBUST AS WE KEEP WORKING FORWARD AND BUILDING THE NETWORK OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE AN INTEREST IN THIS LONG RANGE PLANNING TOPIC.

WE ARE WORKING TO MAKE SURE THAT THE PUBLIC AND EXPERTS ARE BROUGHT INTO THE ROOM TOGETHER.

NOW, EVERY MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC IS AN EXPERT IN THEIR PART OF THE COMMUNITY, BUT WE ALSO HAVE PEOPLE WITH SUBJECT MATTER EXPERTISE THAT WANT TO BE A PART OF THESE CONVERSATIONS, AND WE'RE TRYING TO BUILD PLATFORMS THAT RESPECT BOTH OF THOSE ROLES AND PERSPECTIVES WHILE ALSO BRINGING TOGETHER THE ABILITY TO HAVE MEANINGFUL CONVERSATIONS.

THERE IS A NEED FOR OUTSIDE FACILITATION BECAUSE AS AN EMPLOYEE OF THE CITY OF FLAGSTAFF AND FOR MELISSA AS AN EMPLOYEE OF COCONINO COUNTY, WE GET PERCEIVED AS BEING A REPRESENTATIVE OF GOVERNMENT, WHICH MEANS WE'RE NOT ALWAYS SEEN AS A NEUTRAL THIRD PARTY.

AND SO WE WILL HAVE WE ARE WORKING TOWARDS PUTTING OUT CONTRACTS TO FACILITATE THESE KEY CONVERSATIONS ON TRADE OFFS, ONE IN A SCENARIO PLANNING EFFORT AND THE OTHER IN THIS COLLABORATIVE PROCESS.

WE ARE ALSO USING EQUITY AND INCLUSION AS A GUIDING PRINCIPLE AND TRYING TO MAKE SURE THAT ALL OF OUR OUTREACH REALLY FOCUSES ON BRINGING THE BROADEST AND MOST REPRESENTATIVE COMMUNITY MEMBERS INTO THE CONVERSATION AND DOING THE LIFTS TO MAKE SURE EVERYONE HAS EQUAL FOOTING AT THE TABLE.

[00:40:01]

WE ARE ALSO WORKING TO BUILD CLEAR EXPECTATIONS FOR ENDORSING THE PLAN, BOTH IN TERMS OF TIMING AND CONTENT.

SO WHAT HAVE WE DONE IN THE LAST 8 TO 10 MONTHS? WE HAVE POSTED 22 WEBINARS THAT WERE HELD BETWEEN OCTOBER AND MAY TO THE CITY OF FLAGSTAFF YOUTUBE PAGE AND WEBSITE.

THESE WEBINARS ARE A 15 MINUTE PRESENTATION BY SOME EXPERTS ON WHATEVER TOPIC WE WERE DISCUSSING AT THAT TIME AND 15 MINUTES OF Q&A.

THE LIVE ACTUAL ATTENDANCE WAS.

SAME COUPLE OF PEOPLE MOST OF THE TIME, BUT THERE WAS ACTUALLY MUCH BETTER VIEWS.

ONCE WE GOT IT ON YOUTUBE, PEOPLE STARTED WATCHING THEM.

MAYBE TWO OR THREE MONTHS LATER, PEOPLE WOULD CALL ME AND SAY, HEY, I JUST WATCHED THIS VIDEO ON THE CITY'S YOUTUBE CHANNEL.

I HAVE A BUNCH OF QUESTIONS FOR YOU, AND WE'D PUT THEM IN TOUCH WITH EITHER THE PRESENTERS OR TRY AND ANSWER THEM.

SO EVEN THOUGH THESE WERE HAPPENING EVERY MONDAY AT NOON AND THAT WASN'T ALWAYS A CONVENIENT TIME, THEY LIVE ONLINE AND THEY ARE A GREAT RESOURCE THAT WE'RE HOPING IS PEOPLE ARE ENTERING THE PROCESS THEY'LL USE TO HELP GROUND OUR CONVERSATIONS.

WE ARE WORKING ON PAPERS COMPLETED WITH THE SHORT PAPERS, NO MORE THAN FIVE PAGES EACH THAT COVER SOME OF THESE TOPICS.

FOR THOSE WHO WOULD LIKE TO DIGEST THE MATERIAL IN WRITING AND WE HOPE TO HAVE ABOUT 15 OF THEM COMPLETED BEFORE THE END OF THE SUMMER.

WE ALSO LAUNCHED A GIS BASED WEBSITE AND A REGULAR E-NEWSLETTER THAT WAS GOING OUT WEEKLY DUE TO THE WEBINARS.

BUT WILL START APPEARING MONTHLY IN INBOXES AND THERE IS A PLACE ON OUR WEBSITE WHERE ANYONE CAN SIGN UP FOR THAT.

WE'VE ALSO BEEN WORKING WITH SONYA LONDON HALL AND USING FUNDING FROM THE BEAUTIFICATION AND PUBLIC ARTS COMMISSION TO BUILD ART BASED PARTICIPATION OPPORTUNITIES, WHICH WE'VE ALREADY LAUNCHED AT EARTH DAY AND AT THE STEAM CITY EVENT THAT FUSD HAD.

WE HAVE ART BOXES THAT COVER SEVERAL DIFFERENT TOPICS ASSOCIATED WITH THE REGIONAL PLAN WHERE PEOPLE CAN, INSTEAD OF HAVING A VERY DATA DRIVEN CONVERSATION WITH US ABOUT HOW MANY MILES OF PIPES THERE ARE IN THE CITY AND WHAT WE DO TO ENSURE OUR WATER SUSTAINABILITY, THEY CAN REFLECT ON IT IN A MUCH MORE CREATIVE WAY AND PROVIDE SOME FEEDBACK TO US ON WHAT IT IS THEY CARE ABOUT, ASSOCIATED WITH WATER, OPEN SPACE, PLACEMAKING AND OTHER TOPICS.

AND SO WE HAVE BEEN VERY LUCKY.

WE REALLY APPRECIATE BEE PACK'S INTEREST IN DEVELOPING A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY AND WE ARE GOING TO BE AT EVENTS ALL THROUGHOUT THE SUMMER WITH THESE ART BOXES FOR PEOPLE TO SIT DOWN AND HAVE A PLACE THAT'S MAYBE MORE RELAXING AND LESS STRESSFUL TO HAVE THESE CONVERSATIONS.

WE'VE ALSO BEEN COORDINATING WITH THE REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION PLAN.

THAT METRO PLAN IS PREPARING AND MOUNTAIN LINE AND SHARING RESOURCES ACROSS THESE THREE SIMULTANEOUS PLANNING EFFORTS.

THE LAST THING WE'VE DONE IN THIS TEN MONTH PERIOD IS WE HAVE WORKED ON WITH MOST NOT ALL YET OF THE CITY AND COUNTY COMMISSIONS.

I KNOW AS COMMISSION LIAISON, SEVERAL COUNCIL MEMBERS HAVE GOTTEN TO OBSERVE A STRENGTHS, WEAKNESSES, OPPORTUNITIES AND THREAT ASSESSMENTS.

WE'VE BEEN USING PARTICULARLY THIS METHOD WITH THE COMMISSIONS BECAUSE ALL OF THEM PROVIDE EXPERTISE AND A SOUNDING BOARD ON A PARTICULAR TOPIC THAT TIES TO THE REGIONAL PLAN.

AND WE WILL BE HOPING TO PUT TOGETHER A COMPLETE REPORT OF THE OUTCOME OF THOSE EFFORTS BY THE END OF AUGUST.

THIS SUMMER.

WE HAVE ALREADY LAUNCHED AN HOUR UNDERWAY WITH BEING AT MANY, MANY SUMMER EVENTS WITH A BOOTH, BOTH WITH AN OPPORTUNITY TO FILL OUT THE ONLINE SURVEY THAT'S AVAILABLE NOW AND WITH OPPORTUNITY TO WORK ON THE ART BOXES THAT WE WILL BE BRINGING OUT WITH US IN THESE EFFORTS.

WE ARE COMING IN THE NEXT MONTH.

WE WILL BE AT THREE CONCERTS IN THE PARK AND JUNETEENTH, THE COUNTY'S DIVERSITY FAIR.

AND THERE'S ONE MORE I'M FORGETTING, BUT WE'VE DONE ABOUT ONE OR TWO PER WEEK, AND THAT'S PROBABLY GOING TO BE THE PACE AT WHICH WE'RE WORKING ALL SUMMER.

THE BIGGEST OF THESE IS WE'RE GOING TO HOST A THREE DAY BOOTH AT THE COCONINO COUNTY FAIR IN HOPES OF REACHING THE BROADEST AUDIENCE THAT WE CAN IN OUR COMMUNITY.

SO WE'RE ALSO WORKING ON BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS THAT HELP WITH TARGETED OUTREACH IN OUR HARD TO REACH COMMUNITIES, ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO DON'T SPEAK ENGLISH AS A FIRST LANGUAGE AND THOSE WHO ARE MAYBE FEEL MARGINALIZED OR DON'T HAVE STRONG CONNECTIONS WITH THE CITY AND COUNTY GOVERNMENT.

WE ARE ON THE VERGE OF REQUESTING A CONTRACTOR FOR SCENARIO PLANNING AND THEN VISIONING WORKSHOPS WILL TAKE PLACE IN THE FALL.

SO FIRST I WANT TO TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT VISIONING WORKSHOPS BETWEEN AUGUST AND OCTOBER THIS YEAR.

WE ARE HOPING TO HAVE 12 COMMUNITY WORKSHOPS THROUGHOUT THE REGION.

THESE WILL SORT OF BE NEIGHBORHOOD MEETINGS, BUT A LITTLE BROADER.

AND THE GOAL IS TO GET COMMUNITY AND SMALLER AREA VISIONS FOR THE FLAGSTAFF REGION AND HELP PRIORITIZE THE ISSUES AND PLANNING QUESTIONS THAT PEOPLE WANT TO DISCUSS ACROSS THE REGION.

THE AREAS THERE ARE SOME AREAS WITHIN THIS REGION THAT HAVE RECENTLY ADOPTED EITHER AREA OR NEIGHBORHOOD PLANS.

[00:45:05]

AND SO IN THOSE AREAS WE'LL BE CUSTOMIZING THESE WORKSHOPS SO THAT WE ARE HONORING THE WORK THAT THOSE COMMUNITIES HAVE DONE.

THE SECOND PIECE IS SCENARIO PLANNING.

SCENARIO PLANNING IS A PROCESS BY WHICH WE WORK ON LOOKING AT MEGATRENDS AND ALSO LOOKING AT MICRO TRENDS THAT MAY INFLUENCE HOW OUR COMMUNITY GROWS AND CHANGES FOR THE NEXT 2060 TO 80 TO 100 YEARS.

AND THAT INCLUDES SCANNING THE CURRENT REALITY, PROJECTING FORECASTS, LOOKING AT OUR INFLUENTIAL FACTORS THAT COULD BE PRODUCING POTENTIAL FUTURES.

THIS IS A PRETTY COMPLICATED AND DATA HUNGRY PROCESS, AND IT'S A PRETTY SPECIALIZED PROCESS.

SO WE EXPECT THAT THE CITY OF FLAGSTAFF WILL HAVE AN RSOQ OUT FOR SCENARIO PLANNING IN JUNE.

IT'S WORKING ITS WAY THROUGH THE PURCHASING PROCESS RIGHT NOW.

WE WILL BE LOOKING FOR A CONSULTANT THAT CAN PROVIDE BOTH THE TECHNICAL AND THE PUBLIC PARTICIPATION SUPPORT FOR THIS MORE COMPLICATED PIECE THAT HELPS US UNDERSTAND TRADE OFFS. SO NOW TO THE QUESTIONS AND DISCUSSION WE'RE HOPING TO PUT BEFORE COUNCIL TONIGHT.

WE IDENTIFIED IN THAT PHASE TWO A COLLABORATIVE PROCESS, AND WE DIDN'T GET VERY FAR IN DEFINING WHAT THAT COLLABORATIVE PROCESS LOOKED LIKE, JUST THAT WE NEEDED ONE THAT TOOK ALL THE PIECES WE JUST TALKED ABOUT AND CREATED AN ENVIRONMENT TO DELIBERATE AND UNDERSTAND THEIR OUTCOMES.

IN YOUR PACKETS, YOU RECEIVED A SUMMARY OF WHAT A FEW OF THESE COULD LOOK LIKE.

WE HAVE NOT SELECTED A COLLABORATIVE TECHNIQUE BECAUSE THERE IS SOME FUNDING IN THE COMING BUDGET TO FUND A CONSULTANT TO ASSIST US WITH THIS.

SO VERY LIKELY WHAT WE WHAT WE WOULD PROPOSE TO DO AS STAFF IS TO PUT OUT THIS REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS AND HAVE QUALIFIED CONSULTANTS PROPOSE METHODS THAT THEY WOULD BE COMFORTABLE FACILITATING AND LEADING IN THE COMMUNITY.

BECAUSE THERE ARE ALSO OTHER TECHNIQUES BESIDES THE FOUR THAT I'M GOING TO JUST DISCUSS REALLY BRIEFLY THAT MAY MEET OUR OBJECTIVES THAT WE HAVEN'T THOUGHT ABOUT, BECAUSE THERE'S LOTS OF PRACTITIONERS OUT THERE WITH GREAT IDEAS AND LOTS OF WAYS TO MEET OUR COMMUNITY'S NEEDS.

THE FIRST POTENTIAL COLLABORATIVE OPTION IS INFORMAL WORKING GROUPS, AND THIS IS THE ONE THAT FLAGSTAFF USES THE MOST OFTEN.

IT'S THE PROCESS WE JUST USED FOR THE TEN YEAR HOUSING PLAN.

THIS INVOLVES FORMING WORKING GROUPS UNDER THE UMBRELLA OF A COMMISSION AND MEETING ON A REGULAR BASIS TO WORK THROUGH SPECIFIC TOPICS.

SOMETIMES THERE ARE QUORUM ISSUES ASSOCIATED WITH SUBCOMMITTEES AND WORKING GROUPS, AND THAT IS SOMETHING WE WOULD KEEP AN EYE ON IF THIS WAS ULTIMATELY WHAT WE SELECTED TO MOVE FORWARD. ANOTHER REALLY INTERESTING WAY THAT WE COULD DO THIS IS SOMETHING CALLED STUDY.

CIRCLES. STUDY CIRCLES WOULD BE LIKE A MEETING IN A BOX OR A SET OF MEETINGS IN THE BOX THAT STAFF WOULD PREPARE, AND WE WOULD BRING IN COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO BE THE FACILITATORS OF THOSE GROUPS.

THEY WOULD BOTH FACILITATE AND FORM THE GROUPS.

SO, FOR INSTANCE, THE NATIVE AMERICANS FOR COMMUNITY ACTION COULD SAY, WE WOULD LIKE TO FORM A STUDY GROUP AND WE WOULD PROVIDE MATERIALS AND SUPPORT FOR THEIR FACILITATION OF THE GROUP.

ANOTHER GROUP IN THE COMMUNITY COULD BE A CHURCH COMMUNITY THAT SAYS, WE'D LIKE TO HAVE A STUDY CIRCLE IN OUR CHURCH, AND WE WOULD PROVIDE THEM THE SUPPORT TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT.

THE WAY WE WOULD BRING STUDY CIRCLES TOGETHER IF WE WERE TO PICK THIS APPROACH IS TO HAVE A CONFERENCE OR A WORKSHOP WHERE REPRESENTATIVES FROM ALL THE STUDY CIRCLES COME TOGETHER TO HAVE THAT DELIBERATIVE PROCESS.

BUT THIS GIVES VERY EQUAL FOOTING, AND PEOPLE GET TO MEET ON THEIR OWN TURF BEFORE THEY MEET AS A LARGER COMMUNITY GROUP.

A CITIZEN'S ASSEMBLY IS A PROCESS THAT IS NOT USED VERY FREQUENTLY IN THE UNITED STATES, BUT IS VERY COMMON IN CANADA, BRITAIN AND IN AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND, WHICH IS TO BRING TOGETHER A RANDOMLY SELECTED GROUP BASED ON APPLICATIONS THAT'S DEMOGRAPHICALLY AND GEOGRAPHICALLY REPRESENTATIVE OF THE COMMUNITY, AND THEN TO PULL THEM TOGETHER IN A LEGISLATIVE STYLE SO THEY AS A GROUP WOULD BE PRESENTED WITH QUESTIONS TO WHICH THEY WOULD INTRODUCE BILLS AND SOLUTIONS AND WOULD HAVE A LEGISLATIVE PROCESS THAT'S CHAIRED MUCH LIKE COUNCIL OR COMMISSION WOULD BE.

THEN WE COULD ALSO HAVE A CITIZENS PANEL, WHICH WOULD BE PANELS THAT COULD BE PULLED TOGETHER FOR SPECIFIC TOPICS THAT ARE ASSOCIATED WITH A DIFFERENT KIND OF PROGRAM CALLED AN AMBASSADOR PROGRAM.

AMBASSADORS USUALLY SIGN AND SIGN AN AGREEMENT TO WORK ON BEHALF OF A PROJECT TO HELP WITH OUTREACH AND BRINGING OTHER PEOPLE IN THEIR COMMUNITY TO THE PROCESS. SO ALL OF THESE ARE VERY INTERESTING AND EMPOWERING WAYS TO MAKE SURE THAT IT IS NOT JUST A STAFF LED PROCESS, BUT A COMMUNITY LED PROCESS TO DEVELOP THIS PLAN.

BUT THE QUESTION IS, GOING FORWARD, THERE ARE LOTS OF IFS.

SO WHAT WE WOULD LIKE COUNCIL TO DISCUSS, AND THIS IS OUR FIRST SET OF QUESTIONS, WE'LL HAVE A SECOND SET GOING FORWARD, IS WHAT CRITERIA SKILLS DO YOU THINK ARE IMPORTANT TO

[00:50:03]

CONSIDER IN SELECTING A CONSULTANT FOR THIS COLLABORATIVE PROCESS? AND THEN WHAT SHOULD THE EVALUATION TEAM CONSIDER WHEN WE LOOK AT TECHNIQUES THAT A POTENTIAL CONSULTANT MAY PROPOSE? THANK YOU, MISS DEXTER.

WELL, COUNSEL, WE'VE GOT A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS HERE.

I HAVE SOME THOUGHTS, COUNCIL MEMBER MCCARTHY.

WELL, I THINK THAT WHATEVER CONSULTANT WE HIRE SHOULD HAVE A VERY GOOD UNDERSTANDING OF THE INTERRELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LAND USE PATTERNS AND TRANSPORTATION OF ALL MODES AND ALSO CARBON.

EMISSIONS IMPLICATIONS.

IN OTHER WORDS, PROBABLY THE BIGGEST THING WE CAN DO TO AFFECT TRANSPORTATION AND CARBON EMISSIONS IS THE WAY WE LAY THE CITY OUT.

OBVIOUSLY THAT'S A VERY SLOW PROCESS OF CHANGES OVER 50 YEARS OR WHATEVER, BUT IF WE DON'T ADDRESS THAT, THEN WE'VE MISSED THE BOAT.

THANK YOU. COUNCIL MEMBER HOUSE.

YES, I WOULD AGREE WITH THAT COUNCIL MEMBER MCCARTHY.

THE OTHER NOTES THAT I HAD WERE JUST ENSURING THAT WHOEVER WAS SELECTED WAS SOMEONE WHO HAD A HISTORY OF ENGAGEMENT WITH THE VARIOUS CULTURAL AND IDENTITY GROUPS REPRESENTATIVE OF FLAGSTAFF PARTICULARLY, I THINK, FOR FLAGSTAFF, A HISTORY OF PARTNERSHIP AND ENGAGEMENT WITH INDIGENOUS COMMUNITIES, BUT ALSO JUST UNDERSTANDING THE UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS AND METHODS OF ENGAGING WITH THOSE DIFFERENT GROUPS, BECAUSE EACH HAS THEIR OWN WAYS AND THEIR OWN TRADITIONS THAT ARE VERY IMPORTANT IN TERMS OF BUILDING UP THAT TRUST AND ENGAGEMENT.

SO MAKING SURE THAT'S PART OF THE CONVERSATION AS WELL.

THANK YOU COUNCIL MEMBER HOUSE.

VICE MAYOR. THANK YOU.

SO THE TWO THINGS I WAS GOING TO TOUCH ON, BOTH HAVE BEEN SAID.

SO I WOULD JUST LIKE TO ECHO THAT.

ABSOLUTELY. THANK YOU.

YEAH. HOUSE TOOK MY THUNDER THERE.

YEAH. THE LOCAL KNOWLEDGE PARTICULARLY ABOUT THE WE SERVE A VERY UNIQUE COMMUNITY DEMOGRAPHICALLY CULTURALLY AND IT'S GOING TO BE KEY FOR THEM TO HAVE THAT LOCAL UNDERSTANDING AND HOPEFULLY REAL LOCAL AS IN KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT FLAGSTAFF BECAUSE IT IS A RARE COMMUNITY THAT HAS SIMILAR DYNAMICS THAT WE DO.

SO THAT WAS MY BIG ASPECT, BUT ALSO WORKING BOTH WITH CITY AND COUNTY BECAUSE OF THE LACK OF FULLY PARALLEL LINES FROM THE COUNTY AND CITY LAST TIME THAT WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY HAVE THE COLLABORATIVE PROCESSES AND COLLABORATION WITH BOTH CITY AND COUNTY THROUGH THE PROCESS AND GOOD RELATIONS THERE.

ANY OTHERS? ALL RIGHT.

WELL, I THINK WE GOT THE FIRST QUESTION PUT TOGETHER.

WHAT SHOULD THE EVALUATION TEAM CONSIDER WHEN EVALUATING THE TECHNIQUES THAT POTENTIAL CONSULTANT THAT POTENTIAL CONSULTANT PROPOSE? WELL, THAT KIND OF IS RIGHT UP WITH WHAT WE ALREADY DISCUSSED.

REALLY. YOU KNOW, THEY ALL YEAH, THEY ALL TIE TOGETHER HERE.

SO AGAIN, THE PARTICULAR KNOWLEDGE AND HOW TO ACTIVATE IN DIFFERENT SUBGROUPS IN OUR COMMUNITY.

EXCELLENT FOR ENGAGEMENT.

OKAY, GREAT.

SO PART TWO OF WHAT WE WANTED TO VISIT WITH YOU TONIGHT ABOUT FOR THIS WORK SESSION IS I'M NOT GOING TO READ WHAT'S ON THE SCREEN.

I'M JUST PUTTING IT UP THERE FOR YOU TO READ, IS TO DISCUSS ONE POTENTIAL WAY TO ADD AN EQUITY LENS TO ANY PROCESS THAT WE MIGHT SELECT IN TERMS OF TECHNIQUES AND CONSULTANTS, WHICH IS TO PROVIDE AN OUTREACH STRATEGY THAT ALLOWS FOR SOME COMPENSATION OF PARTICIPANTS. THIS IS NOT, I HAVE TO SAY, UP FRONT, SOMETHING WE'VE DUG VERY FAR INTO.

WE HAVE NO POLICY THAT ALLOWS US TO DO THIS CURRENTLY AS A CITY.

AND SO WHEN IT'S COME UP IN THE PAST, WE'VE SAID WE DON'T REALLY DO THAT.

THAT'S JUST NOT SOMETHING THAT'S BEEN ON THE RADAR AT THIS TIME.

THE REGIONAL PLAN, THOUGH, IS VERY UNIQUE IN TERMS OF HOW BROAD THE OUTREACH NEEDS TO BE FOR IT TO BE SUCCESSFUL.

REMEMBERING THAT THIS PROCESS ACTUALLY HAS TO GO TO VOTERS AND NOT JUST THE CITY COUNCIL OR A BOARD OF SUPERVISORS DECISION.

AND SO WITH THAT, THERE'S ALSO NEW GUIDANCE IN THE LAST YEAR FROM THE AMERICAN PLANNING ASSOCIATION, WHICH MELISSA AND I ARE A PART OF, THAT TALKS ABOUT WHY CONSIDERING A COMPENSATION POLICY DOESN'T SAY YOU HAVE TO HAVE ONE IS AN IMPORTANT EQUITY CONSIDERATION IN ANY LONG RANGE PLANNING PROCESS.

[00:55:07]

SO WHAT IS A COMPENSATION PROCESS? IT IS SIMPLY A WAY TO PROVIDE SOME KIND OF COMPENSATION TO PARTICIPANTS.

I PROVIDED IN YOUR PACKET SOME RESEARCH THAT WAS DONE BY A COLLEAGUE IN BOZEMAN, MONTANA, WHERE SHE REACHED OUT NATIONWIDE TO GROUPS AND ORGANIZATIONS THAT WERE ALREADY DOING SOME KIND OF COMPENSATION.

MOST OF THESE FELL INTO EDUCATION OR PUBLIC HEALTH ORIENTED FIELDS.

HOWEVER, ELECTIONS IS ALSO ANOTHER AREA IN WHICH COMPENSATION IS SOMETIMES PROVIDED TO VOLUNTEERS.

AND SO THESE ARE JUST A FEW WAYS TO CONSIDER.

BUT STAFF HAS NOT DUG INTO THE LEGAL OR EMPLOYMENT OR TAX LAWS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS.

WE ARE HERE TONIGHT SIMPLY TO FIND OUT IF THERE IS INTEREST FROM COUNSEL IN PURSUING THE STAFF TIME IT WOULD TAKE TO BETTER UNDERSTAND WHAT THAT COULD MEAN AND HOW WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO EXECUTE IT.

SO GENERALLY, WHEN YOU HAVE A COMPENSATION POLICY, YOU SIGN SOME KIND OF AGREEMENT WITH THE PEOPLE WHO YOU ARE GOING TO COMPENSATE THAT SAYS HERE'S THE COMPENSATION YOU'RE GETTING AND HERE IS WHAT YOU'RE DOING ON OUR BEHALF.

IT CAN BE ADMINISTERED BY EITHER A CONSULTANT OR BY THE CITY.

SO ONE OF THE REASONS WE ASK THIS NOW IS IF WE'RE PUTTING OUT THIS CONTRACT FOR COLLABORATIVE PROCESS, WE COULD INCLUDE, DO YOU AS A CONSULTANT, HAVE POLICIES OR PROGRAMS THAT ALLOW FOR COMPENSATION OF PARTICIPANTS? AND HOW DO YOU EMPLOY THOSE? HOW MUCH DO THEY COST? SO THAT IS SOMETHING WE CAN ASK IN THE SOLICITATION AND GET AN IDEA IF THE CONSULTANT CAN ASSIST US.

SO FOR INSTANCE, CITIZENS ASSEMBLIES USUALLY HAVE SOME KIND OF COMPENSATION ASSOCIATED WITH THEM.

IT'S A VERY REGULAR PART OF IT.

IT'S EITHER CHILD CARE VOUCHERS AND TRAVEL EXPENSES, OR SOMETIMES IT'S ALSO SOME KIND OF STIPEND.

AND SO CONSULTANTS THAT DO THAT PROCESS MAY BE VERY FAMILIAR WITH A COMPENSATION PROCESS.

OTHERS MAYBE WOULD HAVE TO HAVE A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF HOW THEY COULD WORK INTO THAT IT TOWARDS THAT IF IT'S THE DESIRE OF COUNCIL AND THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS TO PURSUE THIS.

SO AS WE SAID, THE REASON MANY CITIES RIGHT NOW ARE HAVING THIS CONVERSATION FOR A STANDALONE PROJECT OR OTHERWISE IS THAT THERE ARE PAST DISPARITIES AND CURRENT AFFORDABILITY ISSUES WITH FLAGSTAFF IS VERY FAMILIAR WITH AND ALSO TYING BARRIERS TO PARTICIPATION THAT CAN SKEW WHO PARTICIPATES AND WHO SHOWS UP FOR THESE CONVERSATIONS. THE REGIONAL PLAN PROCESS LAST TIME DID START WITH A VERY DIVERSE GROUP OF STAKEHOLDERS, AND OVER TIME THE FEEDBACK I WAS GIVEN IS THEY JUST DIDN'T HAVE TIME FOR IT ANYMORE.

IT WASN'T SOMETHING THEY COULD CONTINUE TO PURSUE AND IT WAS TAKING THREE, FOUR YEARS TO DO AND THEY WEREN'T SEEING A LOT OUT OF IT IN RETURN.

SO IT CAN ALSO BE A WAY IN A LENGTHY PROCESS OF KEEPING PEOPLE ENGAGED FOR MORE THAN A YEAR.

SOMETIMES IT'S NECESSARY.

THIS IS ALSO AN EMERGING PRACTICE IN PLANNING WHILE IT'S EXECUTED, SOMETIMES IN EDUCATION OR IN PUBLIC HEALTH ON A MORE REGULAR BASIS.

FOR INSTANCE, BOTH THE SOUTH SIDE ASSOCIATION AND NACA HAVE BOTH DONE RARE ASSESSMENTS, AND THAT HAS AN ELEMENT OF COMPENSATION TO IT.

FOR PARTICIPANTS WHO ARE OUT THERE GATHERING INPUT FROM THE WIDER COMMUNITY, IT'S VERY NEW TO PLANNING AND FOR URBAN PLANNING IN PARTICULAR.

SO IT'S JUST AN OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE THIS DISCUSSION AND CONSIDER WHETHER IT'S A STEP WE WANT TO ENGAGE IN.

SO THE QUESTION FOR COUNCIL TO DISCUSS AND WE ARE GOING TO GO TO THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AND HAVE THIS CONVERSATION, TOO, IS IS THIS AN ELEMENT OF PUBLIC PARTICIPATION THAT THE CITY WANTS TO PURSUE SPECIFICALLY FOR THE REGIONAL PLAN? AND IF SO, WHAT WOULD WE NEED TO KNOW? OR WHAT WOULD COUNCIL LIKE US TO CONSIDER BEFORE WE CAME BACK WITH MORE INFORMATION? AS I SAID, WE'RE NOT READY TO JUMP TONIGHT.

WE'RE JUST READY TO START.

EXCELLENT, THANK YOU. THOUGHTS COUNCIL? MCCARTHY, YOU LOOK LIKE YOU WANT TO SAY SOMETHING.

WELL, I DO WANT TO SAY SOMETHING, BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS YET.

ALL RIGHT. WELL, I'LL JUMP IN HERE.

I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE RESEARCH ON THIS.

I THINK IT IS WORTH JUST PERUSING, NOT DESIGNATING TENS UPON TENS OF HOURS LOOKING INTO, BUT THERE'S ANY LITERATURE OR SCHOLARLY ARTICLES ABOUT HOW IT COULD INCREASE PARTICIPATION.

I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE IT'S EFFICACIOUS TO BE DOING SO AND ENSURING THAT THIS ISN'T JUST AN IDEA, BUT WE'RE GOING TO SEE SOME RESULTS FROM IT.

AND I WOULD NEED TO SEE THAT RESEARCH TO FEEL COMFORTABLE MOVING IN THIS DIRECTION.

COUNCIL MEMBER MCCARTHY. I GUESS WE'D NEED SOME KIND OF ESTIMATE OF WHAT IT WOULD COST TOO.

I DID NOTE KNOW WHEN I READ THE PACKET THAT IF A PERSON WANTS TO JUST VOLUNTEER THEIR TIME, THEY CAN.

[01:00:08]

AND SO SOME PEOPLE PROBABLY WOULD.

SO, YOU KNOW, I WAS INVOLVED AS A MEMBER OF THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION.

THE LAST TIME WE DID A REGIONAL PLAN YEARS AGO AND OF COURSE I VOLUNTEERED MY TIME AND DID NOT EXPECT ANY COMPENSATION. I GUESS I KIND OF AGREE WITH THE MAYOR, LIKE HOW MUCH BETTER IS IT GOING TO GET IF WE DO COMPENSATE PEOPLE? IT SEEMS LIKE LAST TIME WE DID HAVE A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT WERE WILLING TO VOLUNTEER THEIR TIME.

AND MAYBE THE KEY TO SUCCESS IS GETTING THOSE MEETINGS.

I SAT THROUGH A COUPLE OF THOSE MEETINGS AND THEY WOULD JUST GO ON AND ON AND ON.

SO MAYBE WE COULD LIKE, YOU KNOW, MAYBE YOUR MONEY IS BETTER SPENT WITH A GOOD FACILITATOR THAT CAN MOVE THE DISCUSSION A LITTLE FASTER AND HAVE IT MORE FOCUSED SO THAT THE MEETINGS DON'T GO ON AND ON.

AND THAT MIGHT SOLVE THE PROBLEM THAT WE'RE TRYING TO ADDRESS HERE.

SO I HAVEN'T GIVEN YOU A REAL ANSWER, BUT I'VE TALKED AROUND IT A LITTLE BIT.

MAYBE I STIMULATED SOME THOUGHTS WITH MR. ASLAN. ACTUALLY, I HAVE COUNCIL MEMBER SHIMONI IS ON HERE, AND THEN WE'LL GO TO COUNCIL MEMBER ASLAN.

THANK YOU, MAYOR, AND THANK YOU, SIR, FOR THE GREAT PRESENTATION AND YOUR WORK ON THIS VERY EXCITING TOPIC THAT WE'RE DISCUSSING TONIGHT.

I ALSO JUST REALLY APPRECIATE THE STUDY CIRCLES.

I WANTED TO MENTION THAT I THINK THAT'S REALLY INTRIGUING.

AND SO YOU CALLED IT THAT THAT WHAT THEY DO AND THINK IN NEW ZEALAND AND CANADA AND OTHER LOCATIONS WITH THE CITIZENS.

I THOUGHT WAS REALLY INTERESTING.

BUT TO THE POINT THE DISCUSSION THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT HERE, I THINK IF WE WANT TO HAVE, YOU KNOW, I THINK INVOLVEMENT IN THESE TYPES OF THINGS IS CRITICAL FOR THE SUCCESS OF WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO, ESPECIALLY GIVEN HOW THE IMPORTANCE OF THE REGIONAL PLAN.

BUT I ALSO THINK INVOLVEMENT IS A PRIVILEGE.

YOU KNOW, BY COUNCIL MEMBER MCCARTHY YOUR SERVICE, WE GREATLY APPRECIATE IT, BUT NOT EVERYONE CAN AFFORD THAT TYPE OF TIME AND COMMITMENT.

SO, YOU KNOW, HOW MUCH BETTER WILL IT BE? WELL, I THINK WE'LL HAVE VOICES THAT WE DON'T USUALLY HEAR FROM.

AND SO I THINK IT WILL BE A LOT BETTER FOR MY MY OPINION, AT LEAST MY GUT RESPONSE.

AND AND IF WE DO WANT THIS TO BE AN INCLUSIVE PLAN, WHICH I KNOW WE DO, I FULLY SUPPORT STAFF EXPLORING COMPENSATION MAYOR AND COUNCIL.

I THINK THAT MAKES A LOT OF SENSE TO ME AND I JUST SEE HOW DISCONNECTED OUR POPULATION IS FROM THE WORK WE DO OFTEN.

AND LIKE YOU SAID, SIR, THE SAME COUPLE OF PEOPLE SHOW UP AT THE MEETINGS.

THIS WOULD HELP CHANGE THAT IN A BIG WAY.

SO I'D BE CURIOUS WHAT STAFF COMES BACK TO US WITH.

AND I'M PRETTY, PRETTY FEELING PRETTY COMFORTABLE WITH US PURSUING THIS, AT LEAST IN THEORY, JUST TO HAVE FURTHER DIALOG ABOUT.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

COUNCIL MEMBER SHIMONI.

COUNCIL MEMBER ASLAN. THANK YOU, MAYOR.

YEAH, I WAS JUST GOING TO PIGGYBACK ON WHAT COUNCIL MEMBER MCCARTHY SAID REAL QUICKLY.

THIS MAY GO WITHOUT SAYING, BUT NOT ONLY AN ESTIMATE, BUT WHERE DOES THAT MONEY COME FROM? WHAT IS THE COLOR OF THE MONEY? AND, YOU KNOW, FOR ME, I PRIDE MYSELF IN BEING AN EARLY INNOVATOR OF NEW TECHNIQUES AND IDEAS AND TECHNOLOGIES AND APPROACHES.

SO I'M TOTALLY OPEN TO THIS, BUT WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A LITTLE BIT MORE INFORMATION.

COUNCIL MEMBER HOUSE. I THINK I'M IN AGREEMENT WITH WHAT THE OTHER COUNCIL MEMBERS HAVE SAID.

I DID WANT TO PIGGYBACK OFF OF WHAT COUNCIL MEMBER SHIMONI SAID ABOUT THE STUDY CIRCLES AND JUST THE INTEREST IN THAT.

AND REALLY IN READING THROUGH THE PRESENTATION AND THE INFORMATION THAT YOU SHARED, THERE WAS A SECTION THAT TALKED ABOUT WHETHER IN TERMS OF COMPENSATION OR OTHERWISE, THAT METHOD OF PARTNERING WITH COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS THAT SPECIFICALLY WORK WITH SOME OF THOSE GROUPS THAT YOU'RE TRYING TO BETTER ENGAGE WITH.

IT. I THINK IT'S VERY HELPFUL IN TERMS OF ENGAGING WITH THOSE GROUPS TO HAVE THOSE THOSE SORTS OF PARTNERSHIPS IN PLACE, BECAUSE THEY MIGHT BE ABLE TO REACH OUT AND SOLICIT SOME MORE OF THAT SUPPORT THAT WE MIGHT NOT OTHERWISE SEE.

THANK YOU COUNCIL MEMBER.

COUNCIL MEMBER SHIMONI AS A FOLLOW UP.

YES. THANK YOU, MAYOR. I FORGOT TO ADD ONE LESS IMPORTANT POINT THAT COUNCIL MEMBER HAS MENTIONED, WHICH SAID, I'M WONDERING, YOU KNOW, DOES IT HAVE TO ALWAYS BE FINANCIAL? CAN WE DO LIKE SO WAY TO MAKE IT SIMPLE WHERE WE JUST GIVE OUT GIFT CARDS OR SOME SOME KIND OF ALTERNATIVE COMPENSATION OR GIFT IN EXCHANGE. MAYOR, COUNCIL MEMBER SHIMONI.

[01:05:02]

YES, I THINK THAT IS ONE OF THE OPTIONS.

I MEAN, AS I SAID, SOMETIMES IT'S A REIMBURSEMENT BASED COMPENSATION.

LIKE IF YOU HAD TO PAY A BABYSITTER TO ATTEND A MEETING, THAT YOU COULD PROVIDE THE RECEIPTS OR AN INVOICE TO THE CITY AND WE WOULD PAY IT SO THAT YOU COULD COME PARTICIPATE OR IT COULD BE PAYING FOR A BABYSITTER TO BE AVAILABLE AT YOUR AT THE MEETING LOCATION.

RIGHT NOW, WE REALLY ONLY CAN PROVIDE THAT AT THE AQUA PLEX BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE THERE'S A KIDS CORNER THAT HAS THE ABILITY TO HAVE PEOPLE WHO HAVE BACKGROUND CHECKS AND FIRST AID TRAINING AND ALL THE THINGS IT TAKES TO WATCH A ROOM WITH KIDS IN IT.

AND SO I THINK THAT THOSE ARE THE KINDS OF THINGS THAT CAN BE DISCUSSED IN TERMS OF WHAT DOES THAT LOOK LIKE AND HOW DO WE PROVIDE IT.

EXCELLENT. THANK YOU. AND I LIKE THE CHILD CARE IDEA.

I THINK THAT THAT IS AN EXCELLENT DIRECT METHOD THAT WE CAN SAY THIS IS GOING TO HELP PEOPLE GET MORE ENGAGED AS OPPOSED TO SOME OF THESE NEWER IDEAS.

SO STERLING.

THANKS MAYOR, MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL.

I KNOW ADAM, COUNCIL MEMBER SHIMONI RAISED THE POTENTIAL OF GIFT CARDS.

I JUST WANTED TO VERBALIZE IN THE CHAT RICK TADDER HAD NOTED LEGALLY THERE'S STILL A FORM OF COMPENSATION, SO YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER THAT.

ALL RIGHT. ANYTHING ELSE? COUNCIL MEMBER MCCARTHY.

YEAH. DO WE GET INTO A SITUATION WHERE WE'RE HAVING TO ISSUE STATEMENTS TO THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE OF HOW MUCH A PERSON GOT PAID AND THOSE KIND OF THINGS.

YOU KNOW, THIS COULD GET YOU DO START TO GET INTO THAT.

YEAH IT GETS COMPLICATED.

IT SOUNDS LIKE THE COUNCIL IS INTERESTED, BUT CAREFUL.

WE'LL ALSO NEED TO SEE WHAT THE COUNTY HAS TO SAY ABOUT IT TOO, BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY WE AIN'T THE ONES ONLY FRONTING IN FRONT OF THE BILL IF THAT'S THE CASE.

SO, AND I CERTAINLY WOULDN'T WANT TO DO IT ALONE WHEN IT'S A COMBINED DOCUMENT.

ALL RIGHT. I'M NOT SEEING ANYTHING FURTHER IN THE CHAT BOX.

SO.

ALL I HAVE LEFT FOR YOU IS MANY TIMES THROUGHOUT THE PRESENTATION, I REFERENCED A FEW THINGS, SO I JUST WANTED TO PUT THIS UP.

OUR WEBSITE FOR THIS PROJECT IS WWW.FLAGSTAFFAZ.GOV/REGIONALPLAN AND THROUGH THAT WEBSITE YOU CAN GET TO OUR WEBINARS, JOIN THE MAILING LIST OR TAKE THE VISIONING SURVEY THAT IS OPEN RIGHT NOW.

THAT VISIONING SURVEY ASKS THREE REALLY KEY THINGS.

IT SAYS, WHAT DO YOU THINK FLAGSTAFF HONOR CODE IS? WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE A MEMBER OF THE FLAGSTAFF COMMUNITY? WHAT DO YOU IT GIVES YOU A CHANCE TO WRITE YOUR OWN VISION AS YOU WOULD SEE IT FOR THE FLAGSTAFF REGION, AND IT ASKS YOU WHAT PLANNING QUESTIONS WE SHOULD REALLY BE ASKING OURSELVES AS WE START THIS PROCESS.

SO I'D ENCOURAGE EVERYBODY TO GO VISIT THE WEBSITE.

THANK YOU MUCH. ALL RIGHT.

MOVING RIGHT ALONG.

HERE WE ARE, DOWN TO AGENDA ITEM NUMBER TEN.

[10. Case No. PZ-22-00074: Request for a work session to discuss the Noble Herb’s proposed amendment to the Zoning Code to revise the existing hours of operation for Marijuana Dispensaries (Section 10-40.60.220.C). Case No. PZ-22-00089: Request for a work session to discuss the City’s proposed amendment to the Zoning Code to address Marijuana Operations in the City of Flagstaff by updating terms and definitions to include recreation-only retail establishments (Section 10-80.20.130) and potentially revise the separation requirements for all Marijuana Operations (Section 10-40.60.220.F) The purpose of the work session is for staff to present an overview of the proposed amendments, to allow interested residents to provide their ideas, suggestions, and concerns, and for the Council to ask questions, seek clarification, and discuss the amendment, as well as offer alternate suggestions and ideas. The Council will take no action at this work session. After the work session, staff will revise the proposed amendments. The amendments will then be presented to the Council at a public hearing for consideration and action. ]

THIS IS CASE NUMBERS PZ- 22-00074.

REQUEST FOR A WORK SESSION TO DISCUSS THE NOBLE HERB'S PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO THE ZONING CODE TO REVISE THE EXISTING HOURS OF OPERATION FOR MARIJUANA DISPENSARIES.

AND CASE NUMBER PZ-222-00089.

REQUEST FOR A WORK SESSION TO DISCUSS THE CITY'S PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO THE ZONING CODE TO ADDRESS MARIJUANA OPERATIONS IN THE CITY OF FLAGSTAFF BY UPDATING TERMS AND DEFINITIONS TO INCLUDE RECREATION ONLY RETAIL ESTABLISHMENTS AND POTENTIALLY REVISE THE SEPARATION REQUIREMENTS FOR ALL MARIJUANA OPERATIONS.

MISS [INAUDIBLE], I THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR TIME TONIGHT.

WE HAVE TWO SEPARATE TEXT AMENDMENTS.

WE'RE JUST RUNNING THEM TOGETHER, JUST CONVENIENCE ON THE TOPIC AND THEY JUST HAPPEN TO FALL ONE FROM A PARTICULAR APPLICANT.

AND ONE IS A FOLLOW UP TO A WORK SESSION THAT WAS HELD WITH LEGAL OUR ATTORNEY, KEVIN FENCIL ON APRIL 12 IN REGARDS TO THE SOCIAL EQUITY LICENSES THAT HAVE RECENTLY BEEN ISSUED.

SO TWO WORK SESSIONS, TWO DIFFERENT TOPICS.

SO WE'LL JUMP IN TO THE FIRST.

AND THAT FIRST IS A REQUEST BY NOBLE ERB TO EXTEND OUR DISPENSARY HOURS OF OPERATION.

SO RIGHT NOW, THE ZONING CODE LIMITS THE HOURS OF OPERATION FOR DISPENSARIES FROM 8 A.M.
