WEBVTT 00:00:02.114 --> 00:00:14.439 - I'll interview Team B meeting to order. First order of business. Only order of business. We have a couple 00:00:14.439 --> 00:00:27.230 - of openings. We still don't have any CAPS applicants. No. I looked this morning and I was hoping and prep for 00:00:27.490 --> 00:00:35.458 - this meeting today that we would have any and we don't have any. Okay. All right. Then press release 00:00:35.458 --> 00:00:43.504 - went out about a week ago? Yes. Because you sent a response email. So yes, it went out a week ago and 00:00:43.504 --> 00:00:51.866 - we're not getting anything. Just so you-all know, what I'm trying to do, I'm trying to use my connections 00:00:51.866 --> 00:00:52.734 - with WTIU. 00:00:52.834 --> 00:01:01.682 - I'm trying to figure out how we could do something on a level where, I don't know, for example, news 00:01:01.682 --> 00:01:10.531 - hour could cover boards and commissions to generate some spark of some sort. Now I'm in the outreach 00:01:10.531 --> 00:01:19.905 - part of my position now and I'm really trying to think outside the box and figure out how. I did a segment 00:01:19.905 --> 00:01:22.270 - with WFHB called Activate. 00:01:22.402 --> 00:01:29.534 - and it hasn't come out just yet. So hopefully, you know, some of these little outreach initiatives will 00:01:29.534 --> 00:01:36.597 - kind of generate something. But as of right now, our applicant pool is slow. Well, thanks. That sounds 00:01:36.597 --> 00:01:43.591 - like a good addition. Yes, that's a great addition. Yes, that would be amazing. Do you have any expo? 00:01:43.591 --> 00:01:48.254 - Is our applicant pool sort of abnormally low compared to the start? 00:01:48.770 --> 00:01:54.723 - I think that this is the time of the year, because number one, there's not a lot of application, or 00:01:54.723 --> 00:02:00.676 - not a lot of boards of commissions that have vacancies right now to begin with. And so I was trying 00:02:00.676 --> 00:02:06.748 - to look at how everything kind of compared last year. So we're kind of right on par with some things. 00:02:06.748 --> 00:02:13.118 - We did have, actually, I'll take it back. We did have one CAHPS commission application. It was unfortunate 00:02:13.118 --> 00:02:15.678 - that they left us out there. That's right. 00:02:15.842 --> 00:02:23.395 - We did have one. They just didn't qualify because of residency requirements. That was a null and void 00:02:23.395 --> 00:02:31.022 - there. Got it. Super. Well, we did have one application for transportation and now we have another one 00:02:31.022 --> 00:02:38.426 - applied just three days ago. Then we have the ones that we interviewed earlier. Well, that's what I 00:02:38.426 --> 00:02:44.350 - was going to ask. Are we able to still consider them? How does that work? Yeah. 00:02:44.866 --> 00:02:54.031 - You all had an interview, because I wrote it down. Eobhan Binder, Daniel Burnham, Norman Crampton, Jordan 00:02:54.031 --> 00:03:02.765 - Davis, and Jacob Emery. And so those were your interviewees. I remember my and Stossberg, but he got 00:03:02.765 --> 00:03:11.584 - appointed by the Plank Commission. Oh, I see. Oh, he did. OK. Super. Of those, I mean, I very clearly 00:03:11.584 --> 00:03:13.054 - remember Eobhan. 00:03:13.666 --> 00:03:21.905 - Yeah. And really wish we had a spot for him. Yeah. I mean, there was some tough calls with that round, 00:03:21.905 --> 00:03:30.064 - actually. Yeah, it was hard to decide. Yeah. They're Cranston's, the older general line that gave you 00:03:30.064 --> 00:03:38.143 - Boca Airport. Yeah. I mean, I liked them all. Yeah. And then there was the Chocomoo's going. Jordan. 00:03:38.143 --> 00:03:41.822 - Yeah, that was another hard one to say no to. 00:03:43.426 --> 00:03:53.004 - I would feel weird calling them back for a second round interview, but I can be convinced to be a woman 00:03:53.004 --> 00:04:02.583 - if you guys feel we should. I think of the ones that we already interviewed, Aobahn would be my choice. 00:04:02.583 --> 00:04:11.793 - Yeah. The two new ones look good too, so I don't know if we want to talk to them. One is a student, 00:04:11.793 --> 00:04:12.990 - right, Drew? 00:04:14.498 --> 00:04:25.418 - No one is an attorney. Drew Yeager? Did we consider him last time? He's not on my list. He's in our 00:04:25.418 --> 00:04:36.665 - archive. Oh. Oh, yeah. But he applied on May 12th. It was that after we met? It was. And so I remember 00:04:36.665 --> 00:04:41.470 - talking about it. Yeah, I think you all had 00:04:42.402 --> 00:04:50.920 - from that you had looked and counterpicked. And then after that, um, usually, and so there wasn't any 00:04:50.920 --> 00:04:59.855 - vacancies. And so usually when there's no vacancies, I go in our car. And so because we had a resignation, 00:04:59.855 --> 00:05:07.454 - a council appointment, resignation, they just kind of stayed at our club. But technically, 00:05:08.226 --> 00:05:17.163 - Even though they're an archive, as long as they have a plot within that calendar year, they can still 00:05:17.163 --> 00:05:26.012 - be considered. Gotcha. This is a calendar year, so a year from when they originally? Yes. A calendar 00:05:26.012 --> 00:05:35.123 - year from when they originally planned? Yes. Okay. Yes. So yeah, so his last day of consideration would 00:05:35.123 --> 00:05:36.350 - be May of 26. 00:05:42.786 --> 00:05:52.568 - I mean, do we want to do another round of interviews? For new, yeah. The two new. And or, and possibly 00:05:52.568 --> 00:06:02.350 - true if we feel he was, I haven't looked at his, yeah, actually, since I didn't see that in there. Oh, 00:06:02.350 --> 00:06:09.758 - he's the student. I, um, I had some communication with Zachary Ammerman about 00:06:10.338 --> 00:06:21.290 - some district issues and he seems good to um haven't talked to daniel bailey and zachary did say he 00:06:21.290 --> 00:06:32.352 - gets around primarily by biking walking or public transit so that's drew previous the servant biking 00:06:32.352 --> 00:06:38.814 - ped i should have made so that's a plus for him i think um 00:06:39.810 --> 00:06:51.340 - But like I said, I could also be convinced just to appoint Ayuban. Yeah. I'm going to go to Ayuban's. 00:06:51.340 --> 00:07:03.208 - He was also previously on a bicycle. Was it parking? It was parking. Yeah, you're right. It was parking. 00:07:03.208 --> 00:07:09.086 - OK. Well. And he certainly has a lot of experience. 00:07:09.410 --> 00:07:18.547 - A choice we're grappling with, I understand, is whether to bother to interview others versus just pointing 00:07:18.547 --> 00:07:26.489 - him out because we know he's been interviewed and we like him. Do you feel like procedurally 00:07:26.489 --> 00:07:33.662 - or obligationally, I don't know what the word is, that it would be better for us to 00:07:33.922 --> 00:07:44.068 - You know, I mean, that's up to you all. You did have a really good pool of applicants from the previous 00:07:44.068 --> 00:07:53.921 - time. And I know that you all had a tough time trying to figure out which one to go with, but you do 00:07:53.921 --> 00:07:59.774 - also have two new ones here as well. But, you know, I mean, 00:08:02.114 --> 00:08:14.611 - I would compare the two to whom you've already appointed and also who you interviewed. Daniel Bradley 00:08:14.611 --> 00:08:27.230 - mentioned that he's an attorney and a lot of other things as well. Yes, he is an attorney. Well, I was 00:08:28.450 --> 00:08:35.441 - I mean, part of me is like, I hate to discount anybody we've already interviewed just because their 00:08:35.441 --> 00:08:42.433 - timing was bad. They didn't get in with this lesser round because we would have appointed Ahaban if 00:08:42.433 --> 00:08:49.774 - we had one more seat. I think we would have, yeah. I think so. But on the other hand, I also think maybe 00:08:49.774 --> 00:08:56.765 - it might not be a bad idea to take a moment and even look at because we're saying, oh, well, Ahaban 00:08:56.765 --> 00:08:57.534 - was on the 00:08:58.242 --> 00:09:06.133 - parking commission. Well, and who was it? Zachary or Drew was on the bike and ped. Well, how many from 00:09:06.133 --> 00:09:14.024 - each of those are represented in our current makeup? Because we don't want it to be too heavy with one 00:09:14.024 --> 00:09:21.686 - high five, we think, right? We wouldn't want the majority coming from, say, parking. The only other 00:09:21.686 --> 00:09:26.206 - thing that I would suggest to think about is the fact that 00:09:26.626 --> 00:09:35.452 - you'll have to schedule another meeting to do another round of interviews. Then you might have to take 00:09:35.452 --> 00:09:44.193 - another meeting to sit down and deliberate and then appoint later. That can be a few different cycles 00:09:44.193 --> 00:09:52.847 - of meetings. The mayor still has an appointment to make tonight. Here's my shoot for the hip thought 00:09:52.847 --> 00:09:53.790 - right now. 00:09:55.234 --> 00:10:03.046 - If it had been a little longer period of time, I would tend to kind of agree with what you just said. 00:10:03.046 --> 00:10:11.165 - It feels like it wasn't that long that we did the interviews with everybody else, those other interviews. 00:10:11.165 --> 00:10:19.207 - And it sort of feels fairly furnishing. It had been like a year or something, let's say, I would either, 00:10:19.207 --> 00:10:24.798 - I don't know, it feels like we're sort of almost in that, around almost. 00:10:25.090 --> 00:10:34.477 - Maybe because partly because I took them back to the guy not that long ago. So maybe it seems fresh 00:10:34.477 --> 00:10:43.865 - to me than it actually is. But I talked to him. Yeah, they only just started their turn. Well, back 00:10:43.865 --> 00:10:53.440 - to what you were saying, Courtney, other than Steve Folan, I don't know that any of these were on one 00:10:53.440 --> 00:10:54.942 - of the previous 00:10:55.234 --> 00:11:02.246 - transportation-related commissions. Yes. Do you know, Jennifer? Not that I can see. Let's keep in mind 00:11:02.246 --> 00:11:09.121 - also that they might have had even more interest in one of the other transportation commissions, but 00:11:09.121 --> 00:11:16.269 - ended up on the one that had an opening. We don't really know that just because they were on the private 00:11:16.269 --> 00:11:23.213 - commission, that was their sole main passion. They could have had diverse interests and just ended up 00:11:23.213 --> 00:11:24.574 - on that commission. 00:11:26.978 --> 00:11:39.512 - That's very true. A lot of these are new besides Steve Olin. Okay, so Steve Olin was parking and Mark 00:11:39.512 --> 00:11:52.660 - Stossberg was on the bike and ped. Oh, right, right. So we have to toss up. So I think what we're debating 00:11:52.660 --> 00:11:55.486 - between means possibly 00:11:55.842 --> 00:12:04.184 - another bike and pad, or definitely another parking, if I'm understanding our conversation correctly, 00:12:04.184 --> 00:12:12.363 - what we're doing. I feel like this has been vacant for a while because she resigned pretty quickly. 00:12:12.363 --> 00:12:20.541 - They haven't really been able to have a full team. So maybe we should just move quickly to be like, 00:12:20.541 --> 00:12:25.694 - you know what, you guys make your full play as much as we can. 00:12:26.050 --> 00:12:33.012 - contribute and just say, I'm comfortable with that. I don't mind doing it, but it feels kind of fun 00:12:33.012 --> 00:12:40.044 - to me. I love meeting the people, yeah. But scheduling that is tricky. Yeah, and it is fairly fresh. 00:12:40.044 --> 00:12:47.216 - And they're affected by us, by our schedule. Yeah. Yeah. And it's got a pretty strong or fairly strong 00:12:47.216 --> 00:12:54.526 - feeling about it all. I mean, you know, I've had conversations with him over the years. I think he has a 00:12:55.458 --> 00:13:06.587 - Good understanding of transportation. Yes, I still have my nose from some somewhere in here that I know 00:13:06.587 --> 00:13:17.502 - that I had really good ones on him. So. So I'll make a motion. OK, thank you. To a point am on binder 00:13:17.502 --> 00:13:24.030 - to seat. C doesn't see one of the Transportation Commission. 00:13:25.730 --> 00:13:35.821 - second. Okay. And we have, whoops. I'll just say one more thing. I wish we'd had some female applicants. 00:13:35.821 --> 00:13:44.759 - Yeah. Yeah, they're very, there's like one female on this whole commission. Yeah. All right. 00:13:44.759 --> 00:13:50.622 - We have Rob. Yes. Daily. Yes. And Pete Montzeman. Yes. Okay. 00:13:54.082 --> 00:14:05.294 - and then i mean other than that um again we identified we just don't have the applicants for um caps 00:14:05.294 --> 00:14:16.728 - so well it's too bad because they they're not gonna make quorum tomorrow oh no sounds like thanks yeah 00:14:16.728 --> 00:14:23.166 - i don't know if it would be and i was trying to watch the 00:14:23.490 --> 00:14:33.012 - Yes. Okay. So I was going to go. I don't think I'm going to be available to go tomorrow, but I just 00:14:33.012 --> 00:14:42.535 - want to go to their meeting and try to talk to them about how if they have a person that they would 00:14:42.535 --> 00:14:51.486 - recommend to apply for the CAPS Commission to do so because we need applicants. I don't know. 00:14:51.906 --> 00:15:00.483 - tonight during your meeting, if there could be a plea to help get some applicants to boards and commissions, 00:15:00.483 --> 00:15:08.666 - that would be helpful too. Other than that, that's the only vacancy that you all have left to go, which 00:15:08.666 --> 00:15:16.693 - is good. You fulfilled the Transportation Commission recommendation, so if all goes through, then you 00:15:16.693 --> 00:15:21.886 - only have caps. That's your only vacancy. You're on par. Awesome. 00:15:22.018 --> 00:15:31.371 - Great. Jennifer, you said you felt like if you went to the commissioners and said, hey, your world contains 00:15:31.371 --> 00:15:40.378 - people probably who would do this. Yeah. Again, don't like literally go into people and talking to them 00:15:40.378 --> 00:15:48.606 - where they are and going, you should apply. I'm also in the process of trying to make a flyer. 00:15:48.706 --> 00:15:57.383 - so that when I do go out, we can kind of post stuff around and I'll have a QR code that directly links 00:15:57.383 --> 00:16:06.061 - to the onboard application part. So I'm trying to think of a lot of things. Yeah, when I'm done, I can 00:16:06.061 --> 00:16:14.654 - definitely email that to you. So I hope to have it done. I'm a little bit of a perfectionist and it's 00:16:15.010 --> 00:16:21.032 - Kill me. I hope to have that done tomorrow so I can share it with y'all when I have it done. 00:16:21.032 --> 00:16:27.766 - We could even, in our plea, remind people, hey, if you've interviewed for a spot on a commission before 00:16:27.766 --> 00:16:34.499 - and you did not get appointed, that doesn't mean you weren't a well-qualified candidate. We just didn't 00:16:34.499 --> 00:16:41.492 - have enough space for everybody. Please apply again. Yeah, that's a good point. If you're still interested, 00:16:41.492 --> 00:16:42.334 - we'd love to 00:16:42.914 --> 00:16:52.036 - to you again. Yeah, and I forgot to mention too, I have been calling people when people are and or when 00:16:52.036 --> 00:17:00.894 - people have applied and there's no vacancy so like I had a conversation with a gentleman last Friday 00:17:00.894 --> 00:17:03.262 - and he applied for the CME 00:17:03.458 --> 00:17:09.586 - There wasn't any vacancies. And I just called and talked to him and said, are there any other things 00:17:09.586 --> 00:17:15.834 - that you're interested in? What would you like? And while I had him on the phone, he just said, I just 00:17:15.834 --> 00:17:21.537 - want to serve. And I go, OK, that's great. Is there a special area that you want to serve in? 00:17:21.537 --> 00:17:24.510 - And he said, oh, housing. And so I was like, OK. 00:17:24.866 --> 00:17:31.349 - border housing quality feels like all of those different things and hey, there's a vacancy that's there 00:17:31.349 --> 00:17:37.644 - too. So I'm also trying to gauge while I'm talking to people and letting them know, hey, even though 00:17:37.644 --> 00:17:44.189 - you don't have a vacancy on this, we don't have a vacancy on this. Are there any other things that pique 00:17:44.189 --> 00:17:50.610 - your interest that you could potentially be interested in? Because I just sent another round of emails 00:17:50.610 --> 00:17:52.542 - to people who applied for the, 00:17:52.642 --> 00:17:59.457 - Commission on Hispanic and Latina Affairs and there's no more vacancies and so trying to clean up the 00:17:59.457 --> 00:18:06.405 - application pool and went in and emailed people and just said hey We don't have any vacancies. However, 00:18:06.405 --> 00:18:13.354 - if there are any other, you know boards of commissions that the city has here's the link You can always 00:18:13.354 --> 00:18:20.302 - go look at and you can apply as well. Yeah, so even though yeah Yeah, I just I think there's still some 00:18:20.302 --> 00:18:21.438 - kind of you know 00:18:21.858 --> 00:18:30.688 - They reply for a reason. I'm trying to get a hold of people before they're just like, and I didn't get 00:18:30.688 --> 00:18:39.860 - it and I'm done. Speaking of that, I'm looking at the archived CAPS applications. Rock Council has applied 00:18:39.860 --> 00:18:46.718 - twice. Did he ever serve? Which is weird because he stays in county, so he can. 00:18:46.882 --> 00:18:57.208 - Oh, yeah. And when I saw that again, I was just like, no, you know, so he can't, um, serve because, 00:18:57.208 --> 00:19:07.637 - and he's told before that, um, he stays outside of city limits. So unfortunately he wouldn't be able 00:19:07.637 --> 00:19:16.414 - to serve. Yeah. Okay. Well, all right. Anything else? Yeah. We'll all start begging. 00:19:17.186 --> 00:19:27.518 - All right. Well, then I call this meeting to a close. Okay. That's it. Thank you. That was easy. Thank you.
