ALRIGHT AND LOOKS LIKE WE DON'T HAVE ANYONE HERE FROM THE PUBLIC. SO LET'S MOVE ON. HMM[VI. Business]
MOVING ON TO TONIGHT'S ITEMS OF BUSINESS. I WILL TURN IT OVER TO STAFF TO TAKE US THROUGH TONIGHT'S ITEMS BUSINESS, RIGHT? SO WE WILL JUMP RIGHT BACK INTO THIS STUDENT SUSTAINABILITY GRANT PROGRAM. UM I HAVE UPDATED AND REVISED THE FRAMEWORK THAT I PROVIDED LAST MONTH AND THAT NEW APPLICATION IS IN FRONT OF YOU, UM I'LL GO THROUGH SECTION BY SECTION. AND THEN IF THERE ARE THINGS THAT YOU FEEL LIKE, NEED REVISED FURTHER, OR IF YOU THINK I LOVE SOMETHING OUT FROM LAST MONTH, FEEL FREE TO LET ME KNOW. UM I KNOW YOU WERE REALLY HOLDING YOUR BREATH BECAUSE YOU REALLY WANTED TO KNOW WHAT THIS WAS GOING TO BE CALLED, UM LOOKS LIKE THE WINNER WAS STUDENT LEADERS IN SUSTAINABILITY GRANT UM SO THANK YOU FOR ALL WHO PARTICIPATED. I THINK EVERYONE ACTUALLY PARTICIPATED, WHICH WAS GREAT. UM SO IF THERE. THERE'S ANY OPPOSITION SEEMS SPEAK NOW.THANK YOU FOR THE SURVEY. I THINK IT MADE THE PROCESS GREAT. IT WAS FUN. MY COLLEAGUE SHOWED ME HOW WE CAN DO SURVEYS THROUGH G. I S THROUGH OUR JS ONLINE. SO YOU MIGHT HAVE BEEN WONDERING WHAT IS THIS SURVEY SOFTWARE? UM IT WAS NEW FOR ME, BUT IT WORKED OUT REALLY WELL, SO I LIKED IT.
YEAH. AND IN THE FUTURE. YEAH YEAH. IN THE FUTURE, I THOUGHT, YOU KNOW IF WE COULD, IF WE EVER NEEDED TO SEND OUT SURVEYS RELATED TO THE COMPOST PROGRAM OR THINGS LIKE THAT WE CAN ACTUALLY USE THAT SOFTWARE TO LIKE GEO CODE PEOPLE'S RESPONSES SO WE CAN SEE LIKE MAY BE BASED ON NEIGHBORHOOD OF PEOPLE ARE CHOOSING DIFFERENT OPTIONS THAT KIND OF THING SO COOL FEATURE THAT I'VE WORKED THIS WEEK. OKAY SO THE, UM GONNA SKIP OVER THE INTRODUCTION SINCE THAT STAYED THE SAME FROM LAST MONTH, BUT THE NEXT SECTION WAS. RELATED TO THE PROJECT AREAS AND WE HAD A SLIGHTLY REVISED THOSE FOUR PROJECT AREAS TO BE MORE INCLUSIVE, RENEWABLE ENERGY AS A WHOLE, UM, AND ALSO EXPLAINED THE NATURAL, NATIVE SUSTAINABLE LANDSCAPING TO BE MORE ABROAD AND INCLUDE THE WHOLE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT. SO. I SUMMARIZED THESE FOUR CATEGORIES. AND THEN LATER ON IN THE APPLICATION, I DO. REQUEST THAT. EARTH STATE THAT PEOPLE SHOULD PRIORITY WILL BE GIVEN TO APPLICANTS WHO AND INCLUDED THE COMMUNITY EDUCATION AND ENGAGEMENT. UM IN THEIR PRODUCTS, NO MATTER IF THEY SELECT ONE OF THE FOUR WHICHEVER THEY SELECT IF THEY INCLUDE THAT. THAT WILL GIVE THEM A BUMP. UM ARE THERE ANY THOUGHTS? SHOULD WE EXPANDED EVEN MORE? DO YOU THINK THIS ALIGNS WITH YOUR PRIORITIES? YES VERY GOOD. I THINK IT'S MUCH MORE INCLUSIVE TO ME WOULD INCLUDE A LOT WIDER RANGE OF PRODUCTS PROJECTS, BUT IT'S STILL NO SPECIFIC AND THAT'S THE POINT IN RIGHT DIRECTIONS. I THINK MY QUESTION WHEN I WAS WRITING THIS WAS AND WE HAD KIND OF DISCUSSED IT. DO WE PULL OUT COMMUNITY EDUCATION AND ENGAGEMENT? FROM THIS PORTION. OR DO WE FEEL LIKE IT COULD? I DON'T KNOW IF IT WOULD BE A STAND ALONE PROJECT IN AND OF ITSELF. I THINK IT WOULD ALWAYS INCLUDE ONE OF THE OTHER. GEORGE JUST TO ME AND MY NAME'S
[00:05:04]
MISHEARD. PART PROCEEDING THIS BUT IS ALREADY JUST HAVE IT STARTED OR SOMETHING THAT LIKE IT HAS TO BE REQUIRED. IS THAT WHAT YOU SAID? THAT'S A GREAT IDEA. YEP I WANT TO. I WAS TRYING TO THINK OF A WAY TO INDICATE THAT IN THIS SECTION BUT I DO STATE THAT LATER, BUT I THINK AN ASTERISK WOULD BE A GOOD AND THEN ONE OTHER THING. IS THIS GONNA BE DIGITAL? THE APPLICATION. I WAS WONDERING THAT TOO, AND I'M NOT SURE WE HAVE CAPABILITIES TO HAVE AN ONLINE APPLICATION. THANK YOU. HE FIGURED OUT THAT SURVEY THING I THINK WE COULD FIGURE OUT. ONE BIG SURVEY, RIGHT? I MEAN, THAT PROBABLY MAKES THE MOST SENSE FOR STUDENTS SO YOU PROBABLY SHOULD FIGURE THAT OUT AND IT BE EASIER TO PROBABLY REVIEW IT, TOO. BUT ALSO I WAS THINKING FOR THEIR OWN BENEFIT TO LIKE IF THERE COULD BE NO, IT'S AN EXAMPLE. BUT IF THERE'S LIKE, TERMINOLOGY THAT THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND THERE COULD BE HYPERLINKS. EXAMPLES OF. SWEET SCHOOL PROJECTS. WHATEVER'S THAT WAY THEY CAN GET YEAH. A LITTLE BIT OF REFERENCE. YEAH, THAT'S A GOOD IDEA. I WAS THINKING THAT WHEN WE WERE REVIEWING THIS DRAFT, UM CERTAINLY THERE ARE SOME THINGS THAT ARE HIGH SCHOOL KID PRESIDENT HAD THE CHANCE TO, UH BE PART OF YET, LIKE MANAGEMENT, FISCAL ACCOUNTABILITY, SO I. WE PROBABLY NEED TO THINK THERE IS SOME. MAYBE WE HAVE LIKE A TRAINING SESSION OR, YOU KNOW, MAYBE THERE IS SOME OTHER LANGUAGE WE CAN USE. IT GETS AT THE SAME THING, BUT, UH THAT HELPS THEM UNDERSTAND IT BETTER.OR GIVE EXAMPLES. I THINK THOSE ARE GOOD IDEAS. YEAH AND IF YOU HAVE EXAMPLES THAT YOU THINK WOULD BE WORTH INCLUDING AND HYPER LINKING TO PLEASE SEND THOSE TO ME. I THINK THAT WOULD BE. YEAH EITHER HOPE OR LINKING IN THIS SECTION OR EVEN JUST AS AN ATTACHMENT. SAMPLES. YEP, THAT'S GREAT. SO THIS IS A WORDY SLIDE. IT'S ALL WRITTEN OUT ON THE BACK OF THE FIRST PAGE. I SHOULD ADD PAGE NUMBERS. SO THIS IS JUST AN EXPANSION OF OUR EVALUATION CRITERIA THAT WE DISCUSSED LAST MONTH. IF THERE'S ANYTHING GLARING THAT STANDS OUT AS SOMETHING WE SHOULD TAKE AWAY OR ADD. I WENT WITH GRADES SIX THROUGH 12, BASED ON OUR CONVERSATION LAST MONTH. I DID. I KNOW WE HAD SOME DISCUSSION ON INDIVIDUAL VERSUS GROUPS. UM AND WE DISCUSSED IT. WE THINK THAT IN ORDER TO HAVE THAT FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY IT REALLY NEEDS TO BE A GROUP. UM TIED TO AN ORGANIZATION AND THE CLUB FORMAT WHERE THEY WOULD BE GETTING FUNDING. PRE ESTABLISHED IN TERMS OF BEING ABLE TO DISTRIBUTE THE FUNDING. AS AN ORGANIZATION. WE CAN'T FROM OUR KIND OF FINANCIAL CONTROLS. WRITE A CHECK TO AN INDIVIDUAL, SO WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO HAVE TO BE SOME SORT OF ORGANIZATION OR UM YOU KNOW? IF IT'S A CLUB THAT COULD RUN IT THROUGH THE SCHOOL DISTRICT AND DISTRIBUTE FUNDS THAT WAY. WE'LL HAVE TO WORK THROUGH KIND OF A GROUP UM OR ORGANIZATION INSTEAD OF GRANTING TO INDIVIDUALS. I THINK LISTING THE ORGANIZATION MUST CONSIST OF THE MAJORITY OF NEW ALBANESE RESIDENTS THAT SEEMS LIKE A GOOD COMPROMISE THE ORGANIZATIONS THAT HAVE DIFFERENT PLACES, BUT IT SEEMS FAIR SINCE COMING FROM CITY HALL . HMM WHAT IF IT'S ONE STUDENT WITH A REALLY GOOD IDEA WHO JUST LETS STUDENTS WHO WANT TO DO THINGS BY THEMSELVES? IF IT'S ONE STUDENT THAT HAS A REALLY GOOD IDEA, WHAT DO THEY DO? HOW DO WE HANDLE THAT? OR THEY JUST WOULDN'T BE ELIGIBLE FOR IT.
WELL I THINK IF THEY COULD FIND I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU WANT TO CALL IT. AN ADVISOR OR SPONSOR OR SOMEONE WITH THE SCHOOL DISTRICT IN COULD ASSUME THAT THERE IS A QUESTION YOU'LL SEE IT LATER ABOUT, LIKE FISCAL AND MANAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITY IF THEY COULD. DEMONSTRATE THROUGH THEIR APPLICATION THAT THEY HAVE A RELATIONSHIP OR AN ARRANGEMENT IN PLACE WITH THIS ADVISOR OR THE SCHOOL DISTRICT. THAT LIMIT COULD FLOW THROUGH THAT WAY. AND THEN THAT'S ONE WAY AN
[00:10:05]
INDIVIDUAL COULD STILL APPLY. I MEAN, YOU GUYS DON'T KNOW HOW NECESSARILY ALL CLUBS WORK OR I MEAN, THERE'S PROBABLY SOME ORGANIZATIONS THAT. HOW FUNDRAISING WORKS FOR CLUBS. BUT IS THERE A STRUCTURE IN PLACE WITH THE SCHOOL DISTRICT FUND? THOSE ARE THOSE ALL PRIVATELY FUNDED? WELL LIKE STUDENT COUNCIL IS BUDGETED ITEM. OKAY SO WE HAVE A BUDGET. MR. COUNSELOR THERE AREN'T AT THE INTERMEDIATE. THERE ARE NOT MANY CLUBS AT ALL. I MEAN, THEIR STUDENT COUNCIL. THERE'S WHAT MATH COUNTS AND THAT'S ABOUT IT. UM THERE'S NOT A LOT OF CLUBS AT THE INTERMEDIATE. OKAY, COOL. I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENS THERE. IMAGINE THERE'S PROBABLY THEY HAVE. I THINK OF THEM HAVE FUNDING FROM THE SCHOOL. BUT EVERY CLUB IS GOING TO HAVE AN ADULT. EVEN AT THE HIGH SCHOOL IF YOU HAVEN'T FELT SPONSOR OR SOMEBODY WHO CAN BE SORT OF OVERSEEING. I THINK FOR FISCAL PART OF IT, SO I THINK IT MAKES SENSE TO ME. OKAY? AND NOT BEING AN EDUCATION. IF THERE IS SOMETHING WE'RE PROPOSING, THAT DOESN'T WORK. I MEAN, FEEL FREE TO LET US KNOW WE WANTED MAKE IT AS SIMPLE AS POSSIBLE, BUT ALSO NOWHERE STEWARDS OF PUBLIC FUNDS. SO THERE ARE SOME CONTROLS THAT WE HAVE TO HAVE IN PLACE. YES SO I THINK THAT THAT WAS MY QUESTION ABOUT NUMBER FOUR REGARDING IS IT OKAY TO HAVE THE MAJORITY OF THE GROUP B NEW ALBANY RESIDENTS, BUT YOU DON'T WANT TO COMPLETELY RULE OUT THE CLUB BECAUSE SOME OF THE STUDENTS. DON'T I LIVE IN NEW ALBANY PROPER. UM IF THAT MAKES SENSE TO YOU. WHAT ABOUT LIKE AN INDIVIDUAL AND LIKE A BIGGER GROUP LIKE A BOY SCOUT DOING LIKE AN EAGLE PROJECT. THAT COUNTS AS AN INDIVIDUAL OR GROUP. I FEEL LIKE THAT'S A LITTLE. YEAH, I THINK I MEAN, THE SCOUTS HAVE SOME SORT OF HEY , TAXES AND YOU KNOW THEY'RE THEY'RE FINALLY PRIVATE ONE C THREE OR WHAT THEIR STATUS IS, BUT I THINK THEY HAVE SOME SORT OF UM, ORGANIZATION AND STRUCTURE THAT COULD BE THE SPONSOR FOR THAT SCALP. I THINK , DON'T YOU FOR YOUR EGO PROJECT? DON'T YOU HAVE TO HAVE AN ADULT. THAT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT YOU DO. YEAH.AND I THINK YOU HAVE TO GO THROUGH YOUR LIKE TROOPER ORGANIZATION. TO GET THEIR APPROVAL OF YOUR PROPOSAL, AND I THINK THERE IS A STRUCTURE IN PLACE FOR THOSE SORT OF PROJECTS. THAT'S A GOOD QUESTION. ANYTHING ELSE REGARDING THE EVALUATION CRITERIA. WE CAN ALWAYS COME BACK TO IT. TWO OF THREE WORK THROUGH SOME OF THESE OTHER DETAILS. UM REGARDING THE FUNDING AMOUNT A LISTED UP TO 5000 WITH POTENTIAL FOR MORE FOR EXCEPTIONAL APPLICATIONS. MHM. ON A CASE BY CASE BASIS CONSIDERED BY THE BOARD. IS THAT SEEMS APPROPRIATE. YEAH, THAT'S GOOD. I LIKE THAT WORD. OKAY? AND THEN. FOR THE TIMELINE, AND WE CAN HASH THIS OUT MORE, I THINK. WE HAD DISCUSSED. A VARIETY OF DIFFERENT OPTIONS AT THE LAST MEETING. I OPTED FOR OCTOBER 31ST. UM THAT GIVES FOUR MONTH OF SEPTEMBER. AND THEN AT THE BEGINNING OF OCTOBER, WE COULD HAVE A Q AND A SESSION OR INVITE PEOPLE TO THE REGULARLY SCHEDULED MEETING. I GUESS TONIGHT THAT DATE COULD CHANGE IT. FOR SOME REASON. SECOND WEDNESDAYS OF THE MONTH DON'T WORK. UM. BUT WE CAN INVITE THEM OUT AND ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THEY HAVE. WE COULD ALSO HAVE THAT AS A COMPLETELY SEPARATE IN TIME. I JUST THOUGHT THAT THAT MIGHT WORK. WHEN IS IT GOING TO BE LAUNCHED OR IS THE NEXT. UM I GUESS I DIDN'T INCLUDE THAT IN THIS. WE WERE. WHERE DID WE SETTLE ON THAT? I THINK THERE'S JUST LOTS OF CONVERSATION AND WE DIDN'T. I THINK I MEAN, WE CAN LAUNCH IT AS IN THEORY AS SOON AS A READY. THE QUESTION IS.
WHETHER. YEAH I THINK WE NEED TO RELY ON THE SCHOOL DISTRICT ON WHAT MIGHT MAKE SENSE. IT MAY BE
[00:15:08]
A. DIDN'T SOMEONE SAY THERE'S LIKE A FAIR OR CLUB DAY. YOU KNOW, I THINK CERTAINLY BEFORE THAT WE WANT TO HAVE THE INFORMATION OUT AND MAYBE WE CAN DISTRIBUTE IT THROUGH. PEACH JAR. PETE SOMETHING PLEASE TEACH JOURNALISTS. YEAH. I REMEMBER THAT FROM WHEN WE CLOSE DOWN DUBLIN GRANVILLE ROAD. UM LOTS OF PEACH JAR COMMUNICATIONS. AH! YEAH, I THINK ALL OF THIS. MAYBE ONCE WE GET THIS ENDORSED BY THE BOARD. AND YOU GUYS THINK THIS ISN'T A GOOD PLACE OUR NEXT STEP THEN? WOULD BE THE, UM, CONNECT BACK WITH THE SCHOOL. THE REPRESENTATIVES FROM THE SCHOOL THAT ANNA WAS WORKING WITH AND GET SOME OF THEIR INPUT ON MAYBE WHAT DOES SEEM TO WORK BEST FOR THIS? HOW DO WE TAKE ADVANTAGE OF INTEREST FROM STUDENTS? UM, MAYBE FINE TUNE SOME OF THESE DETAILS THAT OUR FINAL STEP WOULD BE CASEY, BRINGING IT TO CITY COUNCIL TO GET CITY COUNCIL ENDORSE THE PROGRAM AND THE FUNDING OF IT. SO I THINK IN THE SUMMER, YOU KNOW SCHOOL STARTED SCHOOL LAUNCH AND THEN PROBABLY MAKES THE MOST SENSE. BUT WE WANT TO GET INPUT FROM THE SCHOOL DISTRICT ON THAT. I DID ONE OF HER CASE STUDY EXAMPLES OF. THIS LANGUAGE INCLUDED THE CAVEAT THAT UM. THE CITY RESERVES THE RIGHT TO FUND A LOWER SCORED APPLICATION IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE A BALANCE. SO IF YOU HAVE TWO GROUPS. REQUESTING THE SAME EXACT PROJECT. YOU MIGHT. I MEAN, THERE COULD BE COMMUNICATION WHERE YOU ENCOURAGE THEM TO TEAM UP TO DO THAT, AND THEN MAKE IT ONE PROJECT. AND THEN YOU CAN FIND A DIFFERENT PROJECT. THAT MIGHT HAVE SCORED LOWER THAN IF THOSE TWO PROJECTS WERE THE SAME. DOES THAT MAKE SENSE? I THOUGHT THAT THAT WAS A NICE CAVEAT, ESPECIALLY IF YOU DO WANT TO. IF YOU WANT TO HIT ALL OF THE PRIORITIES AND MAKE SURE THAT YOU INCLUDE AWARD FUNDING. THAT'S NOT A REQUIREMENT. THAT'S JUST IF YOU SO DESIRE. OKAY AND THEN JUMP OVER TO THE ACTUAL APPLICATION FORM. I INCLUDE I GUESS WE CAN JUST START WITH ASKING THE GENERAL INFORMATION. FOLLOWED BY A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSED PROJECT. UM, NUMBER FOUR IS. PROGRAM GOALS AND ACTIVITIES AND DESCRIBED HOW THE PROPOSED PROJECT WILL ADDRESS THE PROJECT AREAS SELECTED ABOVE WHAT PROBLEMS DOES THE PROJECT INTO SOLVE? WHAT ARE THE DESIRED OUTCOMES? UM AND SO, YEAH, ESPECIALLY AS I WROTE UP THESE QUESTIONS IF YOU THINK THAT THEY'RE PHRASED IN A WAY THAT COULD BE MODIFIED, SO THE STUDENTS HAVE BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT'S BEING ASKED. ANY MODIFICATIONS IN LANGUAGE I WELCOME. SO THEN I HAVE THEM. SUGGESTING A PROJECT TIMELINE. HOW WILL THEY IMPLEMENTED OVER THE SCHOOL YEAR? AND I DO WE DO REQUEST THAT THEY HAVE 2 TO 3 IN PERSON CHECK INS WITH THE BOARD. OVER THAT TIME. IS THAT AN APPROPRIATE AMOUNT? IS THAT TOO MUCH TOO LITTLE? I THINK IT'S ALL YOU START GETTING. WE'RE STANDING. WHAT'S SCOPE PEOPLE ARE LOOKING TO DEAL WITH. IT SEEMS LIKE FOR A SIX MONTH PROJECT, WHICH IS PROBABLY REASONABLE TO EXPECT FOR SIX MONTHS, AND THAT'S WHETHER OR NOT I THINK. I THINK THAT WE SHOULD SHOOT FOR TWO AND THEN IF WE FEEL IT'S NECESSARY. LIKE IF WE THINK SOME PEOPLE NEED TO NUDGE, MAYBE TO GET THEIR PROJECT MOVING. YOU COULD ADD A THIRD.REVERTING ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES. I INCLUDED LANGUAGE TO HAVE THEM DESCRIBE THE ROLE THAT THEIR SPONSOR WILL PLAY. IN THE PROJECT. SHOULD I? ASK IT IN A DIFFERENT WAY.
SHOULD I INCLUDE EXAMPLES. I WOULD SAY AN EXAMPLE WOULD BE HELPFUL. WHEN YOU DO HAVE A
[00:20:10]
TEACHER OR ADULT SPONSOR, I GUESS ADULT SPONSOR COULD THAT BE A PARENT? OR DOES IT HAVE TO BE SOMEONE IN AN ORGANIZATION LIKE YOU MIGHT NEED TO BE MORE? BECAUSE MOST KIDS WOULD THINK MY DAD'S AN ENGINEER. YOU KNOW, MY MOM DOES THIS SO THAT MIGHT NEED TO BE A LITTLE MORE SPECIFIC.MAYBE IT'S. I READ THIS AS BEING SPECIFICALLY THE SPONSORS. UM, I I'M FINE WITH IT. BUT MAYBE EVEN ASKING ANY OTHER ADULT PARTICIPATION OR ANY OTHER ADULT GOALS. PLEASE SPECIFY THERE.
RIGHT, TRYING TO GET FIGURE OUT LIKE THE SIX PARENTS DOING THIS AND LIKE THREE KIDS ARE GETTING YOU KNOW? THAT WOULD NEVER HAPPEN. NEVER. SO IF I SAID, UM MAYBE IT WAS, BUT. STUDENTS. IN THE GROUP AND THEIR ROLES. LIST THE STUDENTS INVOLVED IN THE PROJECT AND WHAT THEIR ROLES MIGHT BE. YEAH, YEAH, THAT'S GOOD. THEN PLEASE DESCRIBE THE ROLE OF THE TEACHER OR ADULT SUPERVISOR AS WELL AS NEVER ADULT PARTICIPANTS.
AND THEN ONE OF OUR CASE STUDIES INCLUDED THIS PROJECT EVALUATION PIECE, WHICH I THINK HAVING STUDENTS LOOK BACK AND. THINK AHEAD HOW THEY WANT TO MEASURE SUCCESS FOR THEIR PROJECT. THINK BRIAN MENTIONED THAT LAST MONTH DO UM ANY MODIFICATIONS TO THAT QUESTION HOW IT'S PHRASED. MAYBE PROVIDING EXAMPLES OF HOW THEY MIGHT MEASURE SUCCESS. DO YOU THINK THAT WOULD BE HELPFUL? DO YOU THINK SO? ABLE TO COME UP WITH THAT. MAYBE THIS IS WHERE SOME EXAMPLES MIGHT BE HELPFUL BECAUSE YOU KNOW IT COULD BE A NUMBER OF PEOPLE SERVED OR MAYBE WE GIVE A COUPLE OF THOSE METRICS. FOR THAT. I MEAN, IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE ABLE TO TALK ABOUT LIKE SOMETHING SUPER TECHNICAL, BUT GIVE THEM AN IDEA THAT IT YOU KNOW, IT COULD BE PARTICIPANTS OR NUMBER OF X THAT THEY DID AND PROVIDE THAT INFORMATION. OKAY AND PROBABLY THOSE, SOMETHING LIKE THAT SHOULD LINK BACK DIRECTLY TO THE COMMUNITY EDUCATION ENGAGEMENT.
SO LIKE WHAT? SPECIFICALLY IN REFERENCE TO THIS WAS WHAT WAS ACCOMPLISHED, I GUESS. DO YOU THINK NUMBER EIGHT SHOULD COME BEFORE NUMBER SEVEN. HOW ABOUT NUMBER EIGHT? YEAH YEAH. OKAY PRIOR SETUP. CONTEXT FOR THAT DATA, COCHIN. THOUGHTS AND NUMBER EIGHT.
AND THEN. LIKE ADRIAN SAID. NUMBER NINE AND 10, THOSE ARE QUITE TECHNICAL WITH NUMBER 10 I DID, INCLUDING PARENTHESES MAY BE COMPLETED BY PROJECTS. ADULT SPONSOR UM, IN TERMS OF THE MHM.
FUNDING MECHANISM THAT THE CITY CAN HOW WE CAN DISTRIBUTE THOSE FUNDS. UM. NUMBER NINE. I THINK . IT'S ACCEPTABLE TO ASK THEM HOW THEY WOULD BREAK DOWN THAT BUDGET AND BUT TASK I THINK IT'S
[00:25:02]
FAIRLY STANDARD FOR GRANTED, ESPECIALLY 55,000 UNIVERSE NUMBER 10 YEAR. SORT OF TRYING TO GET OUT LIKE. AND I GUESS I'M JUST THINKING ABOUT THIS. DO THEY HAVE FULL PERMISSION FROM THE SCHOOL OR ORGANIZATION TO IMPLEMENT HMM. THIS PROJECT, YOU KNOW, LIKE ASSUMING THEY HAVE AN ADULT SPONSOR THAT PERSON IS PROBABLY GONNA BE CHECKING WITH ADMINISTRATION, BUT YOU KNOW IF THEY'RE PUTTING IN A NEW GARDEN OR THERE. ADDING SOMETHING TO THE SCHOOL. YES IN SOME CASES, IT COULD EVEN BE LIKE A SCHOOL BOARD APPROVAL THING THAT BUT MAYBE I GO SOMEWHERE NUMBER 10.THAT'S A GREAT POINT THAT I DID NOT THINK ABOUT. IT MIGHT MAKE THAT A SEPARATE QUESTION. OR EVEN CHECK BOX. THAT MIGHT BE SOMETHING IF YOU GET TOGETHER WITH DID THE ADMINISTRATORS. UM FIND OUT ABOUT THAT. BECAUSE NOW THAT PETE MENTIONS THAT, LIKE THE SCHOOL BOARD APPROVES IF SOMEONE DONATES A TV TO THE SCHOOL. OR SOMETHING. YOU KNOW, ANY KIND OF CASH COMES IN. I DON'T KNOW HOW THAT WORKS FOR INDIVIDUAL GRANT LIKE T THEY ACTUALLY DO HAVE TO APPROVE EVERY GRANT THAT COMES THROUGH LIKE THAT. AND THEN MAYBE FOR NUMBER 91 OF THE THINGS TO PARTICULARLY BE DIGITAL FOR THEM TO PROVIDE A REFERENCE FOR EACH THINGS THAT THEY'RE LIKE. I'M GOING TO BUY. BUCKETS AND THEY'RE GOING TO COST 100 BUCKS EACH LIKE, HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT? LIKE I JUST WANT TO LIKE WALMART, YOU KNOW, SOMETHING THAT SHOWS THAT ABLE TO REST THEIR HEAD ON SOME SORT OF DOCUMENTATION THAT THEY KIND OF VETTED EXACTLY OKAY. THAT'S GREAT. ARE THERE ANY OTHER OF THOSE KINDS OF THINGS LIKE ATTACHMENTS THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE INCLUDED? DO WE WANT TO ADD IT? I MEAN, PEOPLE ARE DOUBLING OR THAT'S NOT POSSIBLE BECAUSE IT'S MORE OF A GROUP ACTIVITY, DOUBLING. THE PROJECT OR SOMETHING FOR SCHOOL. THAT'S NOT IMPOSSIBLE. FACILITIES LIKE UH, LIKE THE STUDENT SENIOR? YEAH SENIOR CAPSTONE PROJECT WHATEVER. SENIOR SIMILAR NUMBERS, RIGHT? CATERS TO THEM. KILLING TWO BIRDS WITH ONE STONE. NEARLY WHEN THEY WHEN YOU PROPOSE A SENIOR SEMINAR PROJECT, HOW FAR AHEAD OF PEOPLE DOING THAT? UM, IF YOU'RE STARTING IN THE SUMMER LAST WEEKEND. BUT IF YOU'RE STARTING IN THE FALL, YOU HAVE UNTIL SCHOOL STARTS. THIS IS KIND OF A TALE. I MEAN, MOST PEOPLE ARE GOING TO HAVE TO SAY OKAY. THAT'S GOOD QUESTION. WELL, I DO THINK, SINCE WE CAN'T FUND INDIVIDUALS IT WOULD, IT WOULD HAVE TO BE IN THE CONTEXT OF A GROUP PROJECT, WHICH I'M NOT SURE HOW THAT THEN WORKS WITH THE SENIOR SEMINAR. UM, BUT IF A STUDENT CAN FIGURE OUT A WAY TO MAKE THAT WORK. I DON'T THINK THERE'S NECESSARILY A PROBLEM WITH THAT. KEEP STRUGGLING WITH THE WORKAROUND FOR THAT SO. IF YOU'RE PART OF A CLUB AT THE HIGH SCHOOL YOU'VE RAISED MONEY TO SUPPORT THE CALL. I GUESS THE POSITIVE WITH THE DISTRICT ON BEHALF OF WHATEVER THE CLUB IS. MHM MHM DISTRICT. MY UNDERSTANDING THE DISTRICT MAINTAINS AN ACCOUNT.
WITH THAT DESIGNATION THAT. THERE'S FUNDS EXPENDITURE. I'LL PUT TOWARDS THAT CREDIT. SO IT WOULD SEEM TO ME THAT AS LONG AS THERE WAS CONTACT. DISTRICT FINANCE TEAM JUST TO SAY THIS IS GOING TO BE AN OPPORTUNITY. THAT'S SOMETHING TAKEN. AND FOR THEM BEHALF OF A SENIOR SPONSOR PERSON THAT HAS TO SPONSOR IT ON CAMPUSES. THIS ONE PERSON IN ADDITION TO AN OUTSIDE PERSON.
SHOULD BE ABLE TO. IN THE TIME YOU HAVE TO SPECIFY HOW YOUR PROJECT IS GOING TO BE FUNDED WHEN SO I DON'T KNOW IF THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO PROPOSE IT AND THEN WAIT TILL OCTOBER. GET LET
[00:30:03]
US ASK THE SCHOOL DISTRICT ABOUT THAT. I DON'T IF THERE IS A WAY THAT THEY SUMMARY. YEAH, BUT IF YOU WERE DOING IT ALL OR OR PRESENTATION DIDN'T I MEAN, OBVIOUSLY THERE'S A LITTLE BIT OF KETCHUP CYCLE. THIS IS GOING TO BE AN ANYTHING DEAL. BASICALLY. I WOULD HAVE TO BE ON THE BOAT, JUNIOR. YEAH. RIGHT? OF WHICH I DID NOT. WE CAN ASK THE SCHOOL DISTRICT. I MEAN, IF THEY HAD THAT ABILITY AND THE FUNDS COULD RUN THROUGH THEM. THEN I THINK THAT SOFT R FINANCIAL POLICY. YOU KNOW CONCERNS. IT WOULD JUST BE AT THE SCHOOL DISTRICT HAS THAT ABILITY TO DO IT OR NOT? BUT IF WE'RE GOING TO MEET WITH THEM ABOUT THIS ANYWAY, SO WE CAN ASK THEM. THERE IS A PROCESS LIKE THAT. IT'S A STUDENT SUBMITTED A REQUEST AND WE HAVE TO BE APPROVED. THAT PROVIDES A GAP WHERE THE PERSON DOING THE PROJECT, SO THEY REQUESTED. 5000 WON THE IDEA THEY GO THROUGH AND THEY'RE WORKING WITH THEIR ADVISOR. THERE'S A PROCESS FOR THEM TO HOLD THE FUNDS. THEY'RE ALMOST LIKE. SPEND EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT, BUT THEY'RE KIND OF SAYING, HEY, I BOUGHT THESE MATERIALS. AND THERE'S SCENARIOS WHERE THEY BEEN APPROVED FOR FIVE AND THEY ONLY SPEND THREE AND WHAT DOES THAT LOOK LIKE? RIGHT MECHANISM FOR THAT, AND THAT SCENARIO. I KNOW, RIGHT? YES. WHEN I WAS READING. NINE THERE'S A BUDGET, BUT THERE IS ALSO LIKE THE ACTUAL ACTUAL, THERE'S A MANAGEMENT PIECE OF THAT THAT WE HAVEN'T REALLY DEALT INTO YET, YOU KNOW, FOR NEXT YEAR WE DON'T YEAH. CAMPS SOME SORT OF LIKE A REVOLVING GRANT FUND, THEN. I MEAN, I WAS SO LIKE, FOR EXAMPLE, THE ROBOTICS CLUB IF THEY SAY THEY DO A FUNDRAISER THEY RAISED FUNDS IT'S DEPOSITED INTO AN ACCOUNT AT THIS SCHOOL DISTRICT.AND THEN AS THEY HAVE EXPENSES. I ASSUME IT'S REIMBURSEMENT, BUT I DON'T KNOW, LIKE, PROBABLY BUY THINGS AND THEN SUBMIT TO REIMBURSEMENT. IT DEPENDS ON WHAT? WHAT TYPE OF CLUB IT IS LIKE I CAN PURCHASE THINGS OUTRIGHT WITH MY BUDGET WITH YOUR LIKE A SCHOOL CREDIT CARD CREDIT CARD, OR I CAN PURCHASE THROUGH AMAZON. OKAY, CAN MAKE PURCHASES THAT WAY. SO IN THE AMAZON PROVIDES EVERYTHING THAT ANYBODY DON'T EVER USE THE CREDIT CARD, BUT AND THAT'S FOR STUDENT COUNCIL DO THAT. THAT'S FOR STUDENT COUNCIL AND I WOULD I'M NOT SURE HOW THINGS UM, LIKE YOUR CLUB WORKS. UH, I MEAN, IT'S A SCHOOL SPONSORED CLUB, BUT I'M NOT SURE IF SOME OF THE CLUBS I'M NOT SURE IF THEY'RE FUNDED BY THE SCHOOL, LIKE STUDENT COUNCIL IS OR IF YOU GUYS ARE, DO YOU? EVEN THOUGH DO YOU HAVE A SORT OF BUDGET? OR DO YOU DO ALL FUNDRAISING FOR YOUR CLUB? I DON'T KNOW. WE HAVEN'T DONE MUCH SO, BUT YOU'RE SPENDING MONEY ON. I MEAN, ARE YOU SPENDING MONEY ON STUFF OR JUST GETTING TOGETHER AND YEAH, MOST OF STUFF. PEOPLE BRINGING STUFF. GOTCHA. EXPERIENCE OF DISTRICT PREFERS TO STAY AWAY FROM REIMBURSEMENT. I THINK JUST BECAUSE IT'S KIND OF A COMPLICATING FACTOR THEY PREFER IF THERE'S A STAFF MEMBER INVOLVED TO USE THE DISTRICT CREDIT CARD OR ORDER PURCHASE ORDER, THANKS. PROBABLY COULD STAY AWAY FROM THAT. YOU KNOW, HAVING SOMEONE ACTUALLY HAD PAID WITH THEIR OWN CREDIT CARD AND THEN GETTING REIMBURSED MORE COMPLICATED. OKAY. THIS IS ALL REALLY GOOD INFORMATION I THINK WILL INFORM OUR DISCUSSION WITH THE SCHOOL DISTRICT. AND MAYBE THERE ARE SOME THINGS THAT WE HAVE TO GO BACK TO OUR FINANCE DEPARTMENT AND WORK THROUGH. THAT IS A GRANT ANY OTHER THOUGHTS, COMMENTS CHANGES. IT'S REALLY GOOD, WONDERFUL JOB. SO WE'LL MAKE THESE CHANGES. AND THEN IF YOU GUYS FEEL COMFORTABLE, I THINK WE'LL TRY TO GET A MEETING SCHEDULED WITH THE SCHOOL REPRESENTATIVES AND THEN REPORT BACK TO YOU. WHAT COMES OUT OF THAT, AND IF THERE ARE ANY, LIKE STRUCTURAL CHANGES WE NEED TO MAKE TO THIS OR NOT. IT DOESN'T JUST I DON'T WANT TO GET TOO MUCH IN THE WEEDS, BUT THEY'RE ALL GONE. UM DOESN'T NEED TO BE SOME WORDING SOMEPLACE TO SAY THAT. APPROVAL OF THIS GRANT DOESN'T PAID HEART . WATCH WITH IT. I MEAN, IF
[00:35:02]
SOMEBODY SAYS I WANT TO DO A PARADE, LIKE ALL RIGHT, WE'RE GETTING A PRE PERMITTED. THIS ISN'T ENSURE THAT THAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN JUST BECAUSE GREAT PART OF THE PROJECT AND THINGS I DON'T WANT TO PUT UNDER STRESS ON THE REST OF THE COMMUNITY WITH EXPECTING THAT BECAUSE OF YEAH COUNCIL'S BLESSING. THAT SHOULD JUST BE HAPPENING, SO I DON'T KNOW. LET'S TALK ABOUT THE SCHOOL LIKE THE SCHOOL DOESN'T THAT WE CAN PUT IN A RAIN GARDEN SOMEPLACE. NICE PROPOSAL. BUT YEAH, SO I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S ACCEPTANCE PENDING APPROVAL OF ALL PERMITTING AND PROCESSES OR SOMETHING. YEAH. HOBLEY GROUP THAT NEEDS TO GO. I THINK THAT'S A GOOD IDEA. SOME SORT OF DISCLAIMER THAT THIS ISN'T LIKE. THIS IS A UH, FUNDING MECHANISM , BUT THERE'S NO GUARANTEE T OF THE WORK THAT HAS TO BE INVOLVED. THE VERSUS SPONSOR ABILITY OF THE STUDENTS. YEAH.WE CAN COME UP WITH SOME LANGUAGE ABOUT THAT. WELL, IF ANY OTHER THOUGHTS UP INTO YOUR HEAD. FEEL FREE TO SEND THEM MY WAY. YOU HAVE MY EMAIL. UM BUT OTHERWISE WE CAN. GIVE AN EARTH DATA ARE PER DAY WEEK UPDATE. SO THIS IS OUR EXPANDED WEEK. WHAT IT'S LOOKING LIKE UM WITH EARTH DAY EVENTS. WE HAVE. WHAT AGAIN IS NOW JUST AN E WASTE DRIVE BECAUSE WE HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO LOCK DOWN COS THE MOST POPULAR DAY IN THE YEAR. UM BUT WE WILL LOOK TO DO HAZARDOUS WASTE AND PAPER SHREDDING. LATER IN THE YEAR. THEN IN ADDITION TO THE E WASTE DRIVE, THERE HAS BEEN INTEREST TO, UM DO THE DEDICATION OF BILL RUSSIA'S BENCH. UM AND I DON'T KNOW IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO GIVE THE UPDATE ON THAT. SURE, YEAH. SO THEY'RE GONNA PUT A BENCH THEIR RENT REST PARK NEAR THE HOUSE. YEAH AND FAMILY DONATED THAT TO YOU KNOW, IN HONOR OF THE RUSH FAMILY, SO THE IDEA IS THAT WE WOULD HAVE A SHORT DEDICATION AT 10 O'CLOCK ON THAT SATURDAY.
PAULINE RUSSIAN. BILLY RASH AND ARE COMING AND VERY LIGHT BODY DECIDED IT'S GONNA BE THERE TO DO A LITTLE DEDICATION AND MAYBE TWO OR THREE FOLKS TELL STORIES ABOUT BILL AND THE COMMUNITY ALL THAT SORT OF THING. AND THEN, UM ANYBODY WHO CAN STICK AROUND AND GO TO A TRASH CLEANUP. WE'RE STILL WORKING ON DETAILS. WHAT HAPPENED PROBABLY WOULD BE ROSE RUN AREA, MAINLY. BIG CROWD, MAYBE BY DIVIDING INTO GROUPS. THE AREA VOTER WOODS, THEREBY AGAIN, CHURCHILL. RESURRECTION HAS TRASH THERE AROUND HIGH SCHOOL AREAS. AH UM SO THAT WOULD BE FAIRLY CASUAL. I THINK PROBABLY LAST I'M GUESSING MAYBE HALF HOUR FOR THE DEDICATION PIECE. AND THEN MAYBE CLEAN UP.
AND SO, YEAH, YOU GUYS CAN HELP WITH ADVERTISING, WHICH APPRECIATE ON THAT AND TRY TO ADVERTISERS AT SCHOOLS. MAYBE PUT IT OUT THERE AS THEY POTENTIAL COMMUNITY SERVICE THING FOR HIGH SCHOOL KIDS AND LEARNING HOURS. YEAH. FORGET ANYTHING. THAT'S GREAT. SO THAT WILL BE AT THE SAME. THAT'LL START AT THE SAME TIME THAT THE E WASTE DRIVE STARTS. UM AND SO I WILL. BE SENDING OUT SOME INFORMATION ABOUT. REQUESTING VOLUNTEERS. FROM THIS GROUP. AND SEEING WHERE YOU'RE ABLE TO DEDICATE. I THINK MOST OF YOUR HELPFUL IF YOU WERE AT THE E WASTE DRIVE, BUT IF THERE'S A COUPLE OF YOU THAT REALLY FIND IT MEANINGFUL AND IMPORTANT TO BE A BULRUSHES DEAD BENCH DEDICATION THAT IS THAT'S ACCEPTABLE. UM. THEN UM, SO THAT'S EARTH DAY. THAT'S THE START OF THE WEEK SUNDAY. OUR COMMUNITY PROGRAM ADMINISTRATOR , ABBY IS PUTTING TOGETHER A COOKING CLASS AT THE HEIGHT. SHE'S ORGANIZING IT. I GUESS SHE'S NOT DEMOING IT BUT UM, AND THEN MONDAY, I WILL BE HOSTING AN OPEN HOUSE FROM 4 TO 6 HERE FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE INTERESTED IN COMPOSTING, WHETHER THEY WANT TO LEARN MORE AND SIGN UP OR THEY JUST WANT TO KNOW. LIKE WHAT'S THE DEAL WITH THIS NEW ENCLOSURE IN THIS SPOT? THAT KIND OF THING , UM, NOT JUST COMPOSTING, BUT ALSO OUR RECYCLING PROGRAMS AND THE PUMPKIN COLLECTION. SO THINGS LIKE THE CHRISTMAS LIGHTS THAT WE CAN COLLECT. UM, SO IF ANYONE'S INTERESTED. AND THAT I'LL BE HERE FROM 4 TO 6 AT THAT MONDAY. TUESDAY WE HAVE A NATIVE LANDSCAPING LECTURE. AT THE
[00:40:03]
HEIGHT. WE ARE WORKING, UM, TO GET SOMEONE FROM THE COLUMBUS CHAPTER OF. WHAT WAS IT CALLED WILD ONES. UM WHICH I KNOW MARY LOU AS MENTIONED BEFORE, AND THEY DO LOTS OF NATIVE LANDSCAPING EDUCATION AROUND CENTRAL OHIO. SO I THINK THAT WILL BE A GREAT LECTURE. FROM 6 30 TO 7 30 ON TUESDAY. WEDNESDAY WAS ANY THOUGHTS. I THINK IT'S OKAY. IF THERE'S NOT ENERGY, YOU'RE THERE'S A LOT GOING ON THAT WEEK, SO IF THERE'S SOMETHING IF YOU DON'T THINK IT MAKES SENSE TO DO A SECOND ONE I THINK THAT'S FINE. THERE ALSO ARE THE SELF DIRECTED ACTIVITIES THAT WILL BE PART OF OUR PASSPORTS. SO LIKE GO VISIT A PARK, GO TO THE LIBRARY AND GET A BOOK ON THE ENVIRONMENT.UM SO I MEAN, WE HAVE, I THINK MAYBE A DOZEN KIND OF SELF DIRECTED THINGS THAT PEOPLE CAN DO AS WELL. SO IT'S NOT JUST THESE THINGS THAT WILL SHOW UP ON THE PASSPORT. COULD BE ANY SPIT ON COULD THERE AND I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE SCHEDULE IS AT THE AMPHITHEATER. BUT LIKE, UH, DOCUMENTARY LIKE KANGAROO OR SOMETHING. YOU MEAN. THAT EVENING. YEAH WE CAN CHECK THAT SCHEDULE OR EVEN OTHER VENUES. UM, TO SEE IF THERE'S SOMETHING LIKE THAT THAT COULD BE DONE.
IT'S A GOOD IDEA. I DON'T KNOW IF THERE'S SOMETHING THAT WE COULD DO IT. ROSE AROUND. THE KIDS ARE DOING OR SOMETHING. YEAH. EDUCATIONAL. YEAH. LOOK INTO THOSE. IT SOUNDS LIKE A SECOND CLEANUP IS KIND OF THERE'S NOT INTERESTED CLEANUP TRAGEDY. THAT WAS KIND OF MY INCLINATION, BUT WANTED TO RUN IT BY YOU. UM AND THEN THE LAST TWO THINGS THURSDAY. OUR SENIOR CONNECTIONS HAVE AN ONGOING PROGRAM CALLED CONVERSATIONS THAT MATTER, AND SO THERE IS GOING TO BE A GUEST FROM GREEN COLUMBUS COMING TO SPEAK ABOUT THEIR PROGRAM. AND THEN ALL OF THE ARBOR DAY PROGRAMMING ON FRIDAY. INCLUDES THE OFFICIAL PROCLAMATION BY THE MAYOR AND TREE PLANTING WITH THE KIDS. SO THAT'S OUR FULL SLATE. AS ADRIAN MENTIONED, THERE'S LOTS OF INDEPENDENT ACTIVITIES AND EVENTS THAT PEOPLE CAN LOG IN THE APP. UM AND WE ARE WORKING WITH SOME SPONSORS, TOO. UM KIND OF CREATE SOME LARGER GIVEAWAYS THAT WE DIDN'T ANTICIPATE AT FIRST, SO I THINK INSTEAD OF I'M DOING SOME SMALLER KNICKKNACKS THAT, UM PEOPLE COULD WALK AWAY WITH OR WORKING. AH! TO POTENTIALLY DO A TREE GIVEAWAY, AND PEOPLE CAN GET A TREE PLANTED IN THEIR YARD. SOME OF THOSE DETAILS ARE STILL UP IN THE AIR, AND WE'RE STOPPING MINGLING THEM, BUT THAT'S THE GOAL. UM AND SO ABBY HAS BEEN DOING A REALLY GREAT JOB. NOT WORKING WITH POTENTIAL SPONSORS FOR THAT. YOU GO BACK TO WEDNESDAY? IS THERE ANYTHING THAT THE STUDENT CLUBS ARE DOING WEEK IN PARTICULAR. I DON'T THINK SO. WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE? THE PLATFORM TO DO SOMETHING THAT WOULD BE I CAN ASK THE CLUB ABOUT IT. YES IN OPTION. ASK THEM AND IF THEY COME UP WITH SOMETHING EMAIL ME YEP. NO PRESSURE. UM AND JUST SO THINKING ABOUT THIS WEEK SORRY, APRIL MEETING WILL BE THE TOUR OF VERDICTS SO WE WON'T HAVE ANOTHER FORMAL MEETING BETWEEN NOW AND THIS EVENT, SO I'LL BE DOING A LOT OF EMAIL COMMUNICATIONS ABOUT I'M ASKING YOU WHAT YOU'RE ABLE TO PARTICIPATE IN, UM SO JUST KEEP AN EYE OUT.

[00:45:01]
OKAY SO DIVING INTO OTHER PROJECTS. I WANTED TO GIVE AN UPDATE ON COMPOSTING PROGRAM.SOME OF YOU MIGHT HAVE RECEIVED THIS FUN, LITTLE MAILER. THANKS FOR THESE PICTURES. UM. SO THE COMPOST EXCHANGES DOING THIS SIX WEEK PILOT SIX WEEK PILOT PROGRAM THAT STARTS ON MONDAY.
UM AND YOU CAN SIGN UP TO TRY THESE SIX WEEKS FREE OF THEIR CURBSIDE PROGRAM. I DON'T THINK THE I DON'T THINK THE COMPOST EXCHANGE HAS COME OUT AS FAR AS YOU WANT MONEY, AND I THINK SO.
THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THEY'RE ACTUALLY TRYING OUT THIS AREA. THEY GIVE YOU THIS LITTLE THIS FIVE GALLON YELLOW BUCKET. AND THEN PICK IT UP ONCE A WEEK. WHAT I WANTED TO DO, UM WELL. OF COURSE, THIS WILL COST MONEY TO THE RESIDENTS AFTER THAT, SIX WEEKS IS UP, SO I THINK IT'S ABOUT $54 PERTH. EVERY QUARTER. UM, FOR THAT. PROGRAM. UM AND THEN I ALSO REACHED OUT TO UPPER ARLINGTON TO SEE HOW THEIR PILOT PROGRAM IS DOING. UM FOR CURBSIDE. AND KATIE REECE THERE IN BURLINGTON. SHE'S BEEN DOING A GREAT JOB, AND SHE PROVIDED ME WITH A LOT OF DETAILS. THEY STARTED THEIR DROP OFF PROGRAM IN 2019, AND THEY DON'T HAVE DATA ON HOW MANY PEOPLE, UM, PARTICIPATE BECAUSE THEY DON'T REQUIRE REGISTRATION. BUT THEY GREW FROM FOUR CARDS TO 17 CARTS INTO YEARS. UM. AND THAT THAT ALSO WENT FROM A BIWEEKLY PICK UP TO EVERY WEEK. 17 CARDS EVERY WEEK HAS A LOT OF COMPOST. UM, WE HAVE. THAT QUICKLY. 10 CARDS. UM AND. I THINK I MEAN VILLAGE HALL, AND I JUST GOT A CALL THIS WEEK THAT THE TEMPLE VESSEL. UM LOCATION HAS BEEN FULL RECENTLY.
A LOT, TOO. SO UM THAT'S JUST KIND OF COMPARING THAT THEY DID A SURVEY IN 2021 FOR RESIDENTS.
BOTH IN THE PROGRAM AND EXTERNAL TO THE PEOPLE WHO ARE ALREADY COMPOSTING, AND THEY DID INDICATE INTEREST IN THE CURBSIDE PROGRAMS, SO THEY APPLIED FOR GRANTS TO FUND THAT FUNDS 75% OF THEIR PILOT PROGRAM , UM AND SO THEY'RE ABLE TO PROVIDE CURBSIDE COMPOST FOR 85.
615 HOUSEHOLDS. WE CURRENTLY HAVE ABOUT 323 HOUSEHOLDS AND PROGRAMS SIGNED UP FOR OURS. UM . AND THEY'RE AT MASS CAPACITY FOR THAT. THAT'S THEY HAVE AN 82. SET OUT RIGHT WEEK AFTER WEEK. AND SHE SAID THAT THEIR DROP OFF PROGRAM IS STILL GETTING A LOT OF USE. UM, BUT THEN LOOKING AT THE COST COMPARISON. UM THEIR EXPENSES ARE ABOUT $7000 A MONTH. FOR THOSE 615 HOUSEHOLDS TO PROVIDE THOSE COMPOSTS. THE CURBSIDE COMPOST PICKUP, AND THEN $1000 A MONTH TO MAINTAIN THE DROP OFF. ARLINGTON ARE THEY USING THIS COMPOST EXCHANGE FOR THEIR THINGS GO 00 THAT MUCH ABOUT 16. YOU GUYS HAVE ANY KIND OF RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM? UM I'VE SPOKEN TO HIM, UM, ONCE OR TWICE ABOUT HIS INTEREST IN COMING UP TO NEW ALBANY. I THINK BASED ON UPPER ARLINGTON'S FEEDBACK, THEY THERE WERE A FEW REASONS THEY WENT WITH. GO ZERO OVER COMPOST EXCHANGE COMPOST EXCHANGE, THEY DID PROVIDE A SLIGHTLY MORE AFFORDABLE QUOTE, BUT THEY LACK . UM ALL OF THE DATA COLLECTION THAT GOES ZERO IS ABLE TO PROVIDE SO THINGS. ALL OF THE DATA THAT WE BUILT OUR COMPOST DASHBOARD OFF OF UM COMPOST EXCHANGES ENABLE TO PROVIDE THAT. AND SO THAT'S THE PRIMARY REASON BURLINGTON WENT WITH GO ZERO. AND HIS EXCELLENCY. IT'S LIKE, THANKS. LEAVE USES THEM. THE YOU KNOW THE COMPOST EXCHANGE, RIGHT? THEY WERE IN SOMETHING. SOME OF THEM MIGHT BE CALLED INNOVATIVE ORGANICS WITH WHAT THEY USE, AND I THEY ARE BOTH THE ORIGINAL. ORIGINALLY THE SAME COMPANY THEY MIGHT HAVE SPLIT. BETWEEN THE COMPASS EXCHANGE AND INNOVATIVE ORGANICS. IT MIGHT BE IN THE FIRE. BUT DO YOU KNOW WHAT THEY DEAL WITH ALL THE MATERIAL? I THINK. YOU MEAN COMPOST EXCHANGE OR ANY OF THEM GO? ZERO TAKES IT TO, UM THE OHIO CORRECTIONAL FACILITY IN LONDON, AND THEY THAT'S WHERE THEY HAVE THEIR
[00:50:03]
INDUSTRIAL COMPOST PLANT. UM AND SO THEY'RE ABLE TO JUST LIKE, HEAT IT UP, AND THEN ALL OF THE FOOD WASTE AND NAPKINS AND THINGS IN THEIR BREAKDOWN. UM, I DON'T BELIEVE THAT. I CAN'T SAY FOR CERTAIN WHERE THE COMPOST EXCHANGE TAKES. THERE'S I THINK THEY ARE LOOKING FOR LOCATIONS WHERE THEY CAN GENERATED THAT COMPOST THEMSELVES. AND I ALSO DON'T KNOW HOW IF THE REGIONAL COMPOST FACILITY THAT'S WACO IS PURSUING IF THAT GETS BUILT IN THE NEXT FEW YEARS, HOW THAT MIGHT CHANGE ALL OF THIS. SO I JUST WANTED TO BRING THIS TO YOU. JUST KIND OF PROVIDE SOME CONTEXT. I JUST WONDERED IF THEY LIKE BREATHE. BAG DIDN'T SOLD COMPOSTED. RETAIL OR SOMETHING.UM. GO. ZERO DEFINITELY RESELLS IT. UM I DON'T KNOW THE COST OF THAT. I KNOW THAT THEY HAD OFFERED TO. BRING OUT JUST A BUNCH OF COMPOST FOR NEW ALBANY. LOGISTICALLY. THAT'S QUITE CHALLENGING, BUT IT'S COOL IN COMMERCIAL SALES AND BAGGING IT. I THINK YOU CAN BUY IT AND BAGS ON THEIR WEBSITE. I BELIEVE WOULD BE WRONG ABOUT. SO I THINK THE FIRE CAUSED A LITTLE BIT OF CONFUSION WHEN THAT WENT OUT A WEEK OR TWO AGO, UM I DON'T KNOW. IF YOU GUYS GET OUR WEEKLY NEWSLETTER, WE DID PUT SOMETHING IN THERE. THAT SAID, HEY, YOU MAY HAVE GOT THIS. YOU CAN CHOOSE TO DO WHATEVER YOU WANT, BUT REMINDED PEOPLE THAT WE DO HAVE THE MUNICIPAL DROP OFF PROGRAM AND WE'LL JUST CONTINUE TO MONITOR AND SEE HOW THIS GOES. UM, IN TERMS OF IF THEY YOU START INSTITUTING THEIR THEIR PICKUP PROGRAM HERE. TWO. I WAS CURIOUS BECAUSE THAT WOULDN'T FLY WITHOUT APPROVAL. ASSOCIATIONS. IN TERMS OF SETTING THE BUCKET OUT. OH THAT'S INTERESTING. YEAH WHAT CAN BE OUT? AND HOW LONG WOULD IT BE AND HOW LONG IT CAN BE OUT. THAT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE IF THEY HAVE WORKED THROUGH THAT OR NOT. WITH THE PROGRAM. WILL BE REALLY CURIOUS HOW THIS OVER THE NEXT SIX WEEKS HOW OUR DATA CHANGES IF OUR MHM.
CARTS OUT FRONT WILL DECREASE IN VOLUME. I GUESS WE'LL SEE. I WANTED TO JUST INCLUDE THIS AS A REMINDER THAT I'M ALWAYS LISTENING FOR IDEAS RELATED TO THIS QUICK, OH WASTE REDUCTION GRANTS LISTED ARE TWO IDEAS THAT CAME OUT OF LAST MONTH, INCLUDING EXPANDED TRASH RECYCLING CONTAINERS. AND EXPANDED COMPOST PROGRAM. UM. WE DO HAVE AN UPDATE. WE ARE PURSUING ADDITIONAL TRASH AND RECYCLING CONTAINERS IN VILLAGE CENTER. UM MORE IMMEDIATE THAN WHAT THIS GRANT WOULD PROVIDE. SO WE'RE GOING AHEAD AND PURSUING THAT NOW. ANY OTHER IDEAS THAT YOU FOUND OVER THE LAST MONTH. IT'S OKAY IF NOT. DO YOU THINK OF ANYTHING? UM YOU HAVE MY EMAIL. ALL RIGHT. SO BEFORE WE JUMP INTO OTHER BUSINESS, UM ANY QUESTIONS THAT'S ABOUT THOSE ITEMS WE DISCUSSED. THAT'S ME. OKAY? THEN I WILL. I'LL JUST JUMP INTO THE
