(Ayes: Ms. Hill, Ms. Walker, Mr. Signer, Ms. Galvin; Noes: None. Absent: Dr. Bellamy) CITY MANAGER RESPONSE TO COMMUNITY MATTERS (FROM PREVIOUS MEETINGS) Mr. Murphy followed up on feedback provided by Ms. Mary Carey at the previous meeting related to pedestrian safety at the intersection of Ridge/McIntire with Water and South Streets. Mr. Murphy said he had spoken to the City Traffic Engineer and that he would provide Ms. Carey with an update. Mr. Murphy noted that Ms. Angelique Kahn had requested a private meeting with Police Chief RaShall Brackney. He said that meeting took place three days later. Mr. Murphy said he and staff had followed up on questions from Mr. Josh Bowers (and others) of the Police Civilian Review Board regarding raw data requests and that a meeting had happened earlier in the day. He said he expected more clarity on the CRB’s data request and what the City could provide following the CRB’s next meeting. COMMUNITY MATTERS Ms. Leigh Wion spoke to Council as associate director of the BridgeLine regarding the resolution to establish a Priority-Setting Commission. She said her organization support residents with brain injuries. She said the current support provided via the Agency Budget Review Team process was very important and four to six percent of the nonprofit’s annual revenue. Ms. Heather Peck spoke in support of the Home to Hope Peer Navigators funding initiative on the agenda. Mr. Jon Nafziger spoke as executive director of Jefferson-Area CHIP and thanked Council for the City's past support for early childhood services as part of the Agency Budget Review Team process. Mr. Nafziger said Jefferson-Area CHIP started in 1991 as a service of the Health Department and then as an independent agency it has received ABRT funding since 2008. He said his organization partners closely with the City’s Department of Social Services and City Schools and that City funding currently supports half of its Charlottesville families. He asked for Council to consider the unintended consequences of the resolution to establish a Priority-Setting Commission. Ms. Melinda Baumann spoke as vice president of the Sexual Assault Resource Agency. She said SARA receives funding from the City. If the City focuses on certain funding areas it will be to the detriment of numerous nonprofits and fewer services for the most vulnerable members of society. She asked for more transparency when changes are proposed to the Agency Budget Review Team process. 8 Ms. Walker commented that it was not the first time a priority-setting initiative has been suggested for Council support of nonprofits. She said in 2011 there was another proposal to make changes to the Agency Budget Review Team process. She said she was not hearing in the comments from the public or in emails to Council how nonprofits could do their work in the community better. She said if we want reform at every level this is a place that needs to be looked at as millions of dollars are being invested by the City. She said a very diverse group of people has been involved in the ad-hoc committee trying to determine process improvements and the value of local nonprofits. Ms. Cristine Nardi spoke as executive director of Center for Nonprofit Excellence. She said the nonprofit sector as a whole would like to engage in a dialogue on these issues. She said a full opportunity has not happened yet for the nonprofits and the clients they serve. She asked Council to explain the overall goal of these proposed changes with the establishment of a Priority-Setting Commission. Mr. Elliott Harding spoke in support of the Home to Hope Peer Navigators Funding grant on Council's agenda. He asked the City Manager to consider building relationships with people before they re-enter the community as this program is implemented and to work with inmates before they are released. He said the community is going to have to promote employers who are willing to hire people re-entering the community. Ms. Hill asked Mr. Harding if the City should rely on outside partners to do this work. Mr. Harding encouraged an evaluation of those existing nonprofits. He said he didn't think the nonprofits could get in the jails early the same way the City could. Ms. Ellen Osbourne spoke on behalf of Literacy Volunteers. She thanked Council for working on the Agency Budget Review Team process. She said her organization has been working to align with the City's strategic plan, but that in recent statements by Council, she questioned whether the City was seeing nonprofits as partners. She invited Council to drop-in any time to observe the Literacy Volunteers in action. Ms. Laura Allen said she was involved with the environmental groups Generation 180 and Cville100 though she was speaking as an individual. She said she was concerned about energy efficiency and greenhouse gas reduction as it related to housing affordability. She said energy efficiency projects could also support job creation. She encouraged the setting of high standards for energy efficiency. Mr. Cliff Hul said he wanted to suggest another name as part of Dr. Bellamy’s proposal to rename Preston Avenue. He said Garwin DeBerry, a coach at Charlottesville High School, would be appropriate. He attended Burley High School as well. Mr. Daryl Jones said he was an ex-offender and he represented the group Leaders and Achievers. He spoke in support of the Home to Hope Peer Navigators Funding. 9 Ms. Rebecca Quinn spoke in support of the renewal of the lease for the Albemarle- Charlottesville Historical Society. She said the organization had undergone significant changes and was offering numerous new free programs. On energy efficiency, Ms. Quinn encouraged water efficiency measures to keep utility bills down. Mr. Michael Payne spoke about affordable housing matters. He said for the first time he believed the City was working for the first time towards a comprehensive solution on the funding strategy for affordable housing. He said the Housing Advisory Committee had identified a need for 1,200 new affordable housing units and about 3,000 additional units through redevelopment and other housing programs. He encouraged City Council to commit $10 million a year over 15 years to solve the affordable housing crisis. Mr. Martize Tolbert said he was an ex-offender. He spoke in support of the Home to Hope Peer Navigators Funding. He said he was already volunteering as a 'peer navigator' to numerous friends. He said the City is not currently a second-chance City and resources are insufficient. Ms. Nancy Carpenter spoke in support of the Home to Hope Peer Navigators Funding. APPROPRIATION*: HOME TO HOPE PEER NAVIGATORS FUNDING - $405,000 (carried) Home to Hope Peer Navigators Funding Ms. Walker invited Ms. Kaki Dimock, Acting Assistant City Manager, to present the Home to Hope Peer Navigators Funding funding initiative. Ms. Dimock described the program's goals which include three separate initiatives: GO Peer Support Training Program ($30,000); Home to Hope Peer Navigator Unit ($275,000); and Flexible Funds for Practical Needs ($100,000). She said the GO Peer Support training program could receive a reimbursement grant which would significantly reduce that program's costs. Ms. Galvin asked about measurements for success? Ms. Walker said the City needed to be careful in its evaluation. Ms. Galvin asked if the re-entry community the City currently serves could be prepared to go from receiving peer support to moving into a seat in a City GO program to match them with a local job. Ms. Hollie Lee said that was certainly a goal and a large number of program participants have had criminal records. She said this would be an excellent feeder into the GO programs. Ms. Hill asked for staff's recommendations as to whether the City should be the employer versus a funder of other community organizations? Ms. Dimock said there was a sense the Home to Hope program could increase capacity of a lot of the key partner organizations. She said she saw merits to both approaches. 10 Mr. Signer noted that a lot of work had been undertaken by staff since last fall's work session on the topic. He asked if a dollar was better invested in a nonprofit versus the City with respect to benefits and overhead. Ms. Dimock said if the positions were contracted out the City would insist on comparable wages as if they were City employees, but that with benefits, it would be more cost-effective as part of the City's programs which are most cost-effective because of the size of the organization. Mr. Signer commented on the Equity Fund as a source of funding for this program. He said this would be a great equity-related program and one coming in off the budget cycle. He said he planned to support it, but cautioned that this should be the exception rather than the rule. Mr. Murphy said Council had previously set dollar limits on off-budget cycle allocations. This initiative, he said, could be made entirely out of the equity fund and that in the March budget process Council could reload the Equity Fund to some degree if desired. Either way, Mr. Murphy said some of the operational costs have to be recognized in the FY 2020 budget so that recurring funds have a source of support outside the Equity Fund which was intended for one- time support. Council reached consensus to carry the item forward to the Consent Agenda on February 4, 2019. RESOLUTION*: ESTABLISHMENT OF PRIORITY-SETTING COMMISSION TO INFORM COUNCIL FUNDING PRIORITIES Establishment of Priority-Setting Commission to Inform Council Funding Priorities Ms. Walker invited Ms. Kaki Dimock, Acting Assistant City Manager, to present the resolution to establish a Priority-Setting Commission. Ms. Dimock updated Council on changes made to the staff report and recommendations since receiving Council's feedback on January 7. She described the proposed composition and skills sought for the new 13-member commission. Ms. Hill said this has been one of the top-three issues on which she has received feedback while serving on Council. She said it was clear additional conversation was required for this transition to be effective. Ms. Galvin said comments over the last four to five days from the public said to her that there needed to be a clearer statement of need for the recommended changes. As written, she said it wasn't clear how numerous nonprofits providing vital services would receive funding in the future. Ms. Walker responded and shared history of the Agency Budget Review Team process and that many of the same concerns raised tonight have been raised in previous assessments, and by representatives of many of the same organizations. She asked Council to identify the ultimate 11 goals for the agency funding process. She said if the City is considering reform in all areas, it is not about taking anything away, rather it is about finding true partnerships in the community and making the individuals served the ultimate focus. Ms. Galvin said the process should be open and transparent and this may be a good point in time to shift gears, create the commission, and challenge them to address other questions of importance. She said this is $2-3 million in operational funds and that the entire Council should be involved in selecting the commission. She asked if this could be brought back in a month with some more clarity about what we want the commission to address. She said she can't vote on the current resolution as written. Dr. Bellamy arrived at 8:34 p.m. Ms. Walker reiterated that the committee has very diverse representation in the community. Mr. Signer said he did not understand the impetus behind the proposed reforms. He said further discussion at a work session would be beneficial. Mr. Murphy said he thought it was clear Council has long had questions about the ABRT process and nonprofit outcome measures. For example, he said Council has questioned the scoring process and the prerequisites for applying. Mr. Murphy said the next step was to determine Council's funding priorities, regardless of the approach. He said it was important for Council to have confidence in the process and to give this group the right charge at the start. He said it may be time to hold agencies harmless for a second-year until this is given further consideration. Dr. Bellamy asked if more study would yield different results. Ms. Hill responded that the work was not yet complete. Ms. Walker said she wanted the commission to evaluate priorities and have a work session with Council. She said a comprehensive needs assessment was necessary to inform the process. Ms. Walker said it was important for the clients being served to be in a position to tell Council if a nonprofit's work is effective as opposed to just relying on the nonprofits themselves. She said at a future work session, Council would have greater opportunity to be heard, and to select and charge the commission. Ms. Galvin said she would appreciate having greater time. She would support combining the ad-hoc committee into the commission. She said greater clarity was needed as to whether this would be an ad-hoc or standing committee and that Council should agree on the commission's charge. She also asked what could be done to engage Albemarle County to participate. Ms. Walker said she would recommend a work session. 12 Mr. Signer said some city councils would charge their City Manager to take on this initiative and bring recommendations back. Ms. Walker said putting it in an interim City Manager's lap would not be the best approach. She said given the interest by Council and numerous community members, Council should remain involved. Ms. Galvin and Mr. Signer said it may take another year to accomplish this goal. Ms. Walker said in the absence of Council support for this proposal, a work session should be scheduled. Ms. Dimock asked what kind of time should be allocated to accommodate stakeholder input? Ms. Walker responded that three hours would be sufficient and that she would focus on getting client feedback included at the work session. Mr. Signer suggested having a facilitator present. Mr. Murphy asked about the timing and suggested staff could use February-March to collect more input for a council work session in April. Ms. Walker asked if Council could get an update on where staff is with the outreach process at the second meeting in February. She said she is especially interested in recommendations on a comprehensive needs assessment. Ms. Walker said she would meet with the ad-hoc group again, people she had selected to serve over the past year, to continue receiving their input. She said they were all busy people who would not meet unnecessarily while staff is preparing for the work session. Council reached consensus to defer the item. 13 REPORT: LEASE TERMS FOR ALBEMARLE-CHARLOTTESVILLE HISTORICAL SOCIETY AT 200 2ND STREET, NE Lease Terms for Albemarle-Charlottesville Historical Society at 200 2nd Street, NE Ms. Walker invited Mr. Paul Oberdorfer, Director of Public Works, to provide background on the ACHS lease. Mr. Oberdorfer said ACHS has been leasing the property since 1993. In April, Council granted a new one-year lease with 10 requirements. Mr. Oberdorfer said the lease would expire April 30 and staff was providing an interim update on their progress to Council. Mr. Murphy said he was seeking Council's direction on a lease renewal and over what period. He said he also wanted clarity as to whether Council intended to continue requiring it appoint one-third of the ACHS board as approved in April 2018. Ms. Galvin asked about lease terms. Mr. Murphy said the initial request for a 10-year term and staff was recommending a three-year term with two one-year renewal options. Ms. Walker said she did not feel strongly about having Council appointees on the ACHS board. She said she did not want to lock into a longer term lease at this time. She suggested a one-year renewal and then Council could revisit it with the new City Manager. Dr. Bellamy said he supported Ms. Walker's recommendation. Ms. Hill asked what the implications would be for a shorter renewal? Mr. Coy Barefoot, executive director of the Society, was asked to respond. He said he felt positive about the current recommendations from staff and that a grant from the Perry Foundation would be in jeopardy if he did not receive a longer lease. Mr. Blair asked Mr. Barefoot about a one-year lease with four one-year renewals as an option? Mr. Barefoot said that arrangement would not be acceptable. He said the organization has worked really hard, exercised good faith, and deserves this lease. Mr. Signer noted that all the indicators are pointing the right direction in the ACHS operations. He said he opposed something less than three years as an initial term. He also said he favored lifting the Council appointments on the ACHS board. Ms. Walker said she understood the organization was turning around but she thinks Council must recognize there could be other ideas about the best use of that space in the future. She said she was looking for a fresh perspective on that issue. Ms. Galvin noted the two one-year renewal options need to be added to the lease as drafted. She also supports eliminating the Council appointments on the board. 14 Dr. Shelley Murphy was invited to speak and she said she was proud to be serving as chair of the Board. She described the organization's goals to enrich the community and the fundraising being done to improve the building. Dr. Phyllis Leffler said she was one of the Council-appointed members of the board that joined last year having previously served in the 1990s. She described the diverse programming and excellent attendance at their recent programs. ORDINANCE: ZTA: MODIFYING DEFINITION OF DWELLING UNIT (2nd reading; from Consent Agenda Item N above) ZTA: Modifying Definition of Dwelling Unit On motion by Ms. Galvin, seconded by Ms. Hill, Council voted to APPROVE the ORDINACE for a Zoning Text Amendment Modifying the Definition of Dwelling Unit as presented with an amendment that the provisions of this Zoning Text Amendment shall not apply to Site Plan P18-0203-513 & 0 Rugby.

OTHER BUSINESS MATTERS BY THE PUBLIC Ms. Nancy Carpenter spoke about the ABRT funding process. She said it was important to revamp the process. Ms. Elliott Brown said she supported changes to the ABRT process. She said there have not been significant improvements for marginalized communities. Meeting adjourned at 10:05 p.m.
