S SO E HAVE AS CHAN SAID STEVEN I'LL BE DOING THE BULK OF THE PRESENTATION TONIGHT WE ARE ASSISTED BY JONATHAN COHN WHO WILL.L. SPEAKAK ABOUT THEHE GAS REDUCTION TARGETS ARE WHAT THEY MEAN HOW THEY WERE READ AND EACH YEAR WHO WILL COVER UNTIL THE OCCUPATION OR THE PRESENTATION.N.ININ ADDITIN

[11:09] WE HAVE WITH THIS URGE TO TAKE CABBIE HAD LESS TELL US THAT LOVE AND CARE WHAT HE LOVED.. THE SOUNDND OF ALL THEE DISHES TEAM AND MY TEAM WHO ARE AVAILABLE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS ANYBODY MIGHT SOAR.R. DID YOU MAKE IT OKAYAY THOUGH HE IS GOING TO LEAD OFF BY TALKING ABOUT SOME OF THE EVENING THE NUMBERS.. A AS YOU KNOW THE CITY IS WELL ESTABLISHED GOALS RELATED TO THE CONDENSATION DECENTRALIZATION AND DEMOCRATIZATION OF THE ELECTRIC SYSTEM.. IN THAT

[12:00] CONSIDERING RATES RELIABILITY AND RENEWALS AS WE MOVED INTO THESE NEGOTIATIONS WERE PART OF OUR CONSIDERATION AS WE MOVE FORWARD.D. AND THIHIS GOES FOR OUR PRESENTATION WILL ADDRESS HOW.. W WE WORK TOTO BRIDGE THE GAP BETWEEN.. THEHE CONVERSATION THAT EXTOL HIS COMMITMENT TO AND THE LEVEL OF FROM NOBLES OF THE CITY HAS HONOR OF THIS ALSO INCLUDES OF COURSE TO.. THE CENTRAL STATION WHERE WE ARE WORKING TOWARDS FOR MORE ON DISTRIBUTED ENERGY RESOURCES SO THAT CROSSES SO THE CAMERA TRYING TO INTEREST FOR RESILIENCE LONGER ABOUT.. AND WE DO TRY T TO PROVIDE THE LEVEL OF DEMOCRATIZATION OF THE SETTLEMENT WHERE THE CITY HAS THE ABILITY TO PARTICIPATE IN THE PLANNING OF HOW GREAT.. IT RECORDED IN THE CITY IS IMPROVED AM ALL WORKED ON. OUR ABS WHILE THE RATES FOR SOLAR SO THAT THE

[13:00] PUC ART OF THE PROJECTS WE'VE AGREED UPON IS TO PURSUE A RATE FOR BUS..THTHE ELECTRIFICATION RIGHT NOW THEY CAN BE QUITE PUNISHING TO THE ECONOMICS OF MAKING THAT WORK AND WE'VE AGREED TO WORK TOGETHER TO MOVE IN TERROR FOR RELIABILITY.. OF COURSE THERE ARE SIGNIFICANT UNDERGROUND PROJECTS WILL BE DOING IN THE CITY WILL BE PARTICIPATING WITH THICK SOLE AND DECIDING.G. WHERE AND HOW THOSE PROJECTS ARE DONE AND THAT CERTAINLY GIVES US AN OPPORTUNITY TO ADDRESS RELIABILITY OF COURSE SCHOOLS URGING THE CAMP AND TWIN SOULS SCHOOLS AND THE CITY IS.. QUITE CRITICAL TO WHAT WE HOPE TO ACHIEVE THAT ALL TURNED BACK TO.O. ONENE OF THOSE QUESTIONS IS HOW DOES THIS COMPARE TO THE PROPOSED SETTLEMENT THE COUNCIL REJECTED IN TWO THOUSAND AND SEVENTEEN IS YOU KNOW THAT THERE WAS.S.

[14:03] DISCUSSION XL AND THE CITY TWO THOUSAND AND SEVENTEEN RUN FOR A SONOGRAM WAS ALL GOING TO COUNCIL AND COUNCIL REJECTED THE TOUCHDOWNS.S.SO ONE OF THE QUESTIONS THAT WE WERE AT HIS HOUSE IS COMPARE HAS THIS PROPOSAL COMPARED TO NOW ONE SHORT IN THE PACKAGE THAT LAYS OUT THE CHORE HERE.E. IOWA IS RELATIVELY BRIEFLY READ EVERY LINE WITH RESPECT TO THE CORE REDUCTION IN GHG REDUCTION..THERE WERE NO GUARANTEES NO SO SURE IT DOESN'T SEVENTEEN PROPOSAL NOW EXCELS SURE TO.O. SHOHOW PRODUCTIONS UGA SHE'S NOT JUST CARBON DIOXIDE TWENTY THREE OF THEM MORE ABOUT THAT LATER ON THE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT IN TWO THOUSAND AND SEVENTEEN.JUST A FEW SPECIFIC PROJECTS.S.WEWE BELIEVE THE CURRENT PORTION IS MORE ROBUST AND A GROUNDING IN THE TWO DOZEN SEVENTEEN SO IT WAS OVER WAS BACK LOADED IN THE TWENTY OVER TWENTY YEAR FRANCHISE. IN THE CURRENT PROPOSAL IS A CATCH UP.P.TOTAL

[15:01] THIRTY THREE MILLION WOULD BE THE FIRST FIVE YEARS.S.BOTHTH REQUIRE PASSAGE OF THE FRENCH TELEVISION STATIONS POSITION FOR.. IN THTHE TWO THOUSAND SEVENTEEN PROPOSAL THE CITY AUCTION OFF DOWN AFTER FIVE TO FIFTEEN YEARS IN THE CURRENT PROPOSAL THE CITY WOULD NOT ONLY HAVE THOSE OF US BUT ALSO.O. I INN TWENTY TWENTY TWO TWENTY FOUR TWENTY SEVEN PIXELS NOT BE THAT HUGE MARKET'S INHERENT.T. I IN THERE WAS A BUYOUT PROVISION IN THE TWO THOUSAND SOMETHING SO WAS I BELIEVE TOLD ABOUT A HALF BILLION DOLLARS MORE.E. IN THIS PROPOSAL THERE IS THE DAMAGES CAP OF TWO HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS WHICH INCLUDES THE TOTAL COST OF ACQUISITION AND DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM INCLUDING ALL ASSETS.S. OF TWO SUB

[16:00] STATIONS AND A GOING CONCERN GOING CONCERN WAS ESTIMATED IN THE PRIOR PROPOSAL TO BE TWENTY THREE FIVE MILLION CARS INCLUDING THE WORKOUT.. WAS A REPORT OF A PURPLE SEA URCHINS CAR FOR TEN YEARS.. AND CLAIM THEY'RE IN EXCHANGE FOR GROCERY COSTS THE CITY HAS THE OPTION TO PURCHASE POWER WAS NOW OR TWO THERE IS NO CONTROLLING COSTS.S. IN RESPECT IBM IN THE PROGRAM THE STATE WITH EXCEL UNDER THE CURRENT POLL I WOULD GIVE CUSTOMERS THE UTILITY CITY OLD DECIDES TO CREATE HIZBULLAH TOTALLY.. S SO JUICES OVERVIEW OF POTENTIAL SO AND THE ASSURANCE OF A PERCENT GREENHOUSE GAS REDUCTION IN TWENTY THIRTY.. MISSIONS CHICKENS AND TWENTY TO TWENTY FOUR TWENTY SEVEN AS I SAID IT IS AN ENERGY PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT TO FACILITATE PLANNING HELP OLDER SHE IS ONE OF THE ELECTRICITY COAL. THROUGHOUT WE WILL TALK ABOUT TWO DIFFERENT THINGS.S.GHG

[17:09] REDUCTION IS ONE THING TO LECTURE SEE OUR SON WHO SHE IS DIFFERENT THAN THEY ARE DIFFERENT MEASURES AND THIS IS SOMEWHAT TWENTY THREE.. ELECTION HAS PROVISIONS THAT HELP MAINTAIN THIS POSITION THE FUTURE AS I SAID IT PROVIDES ONGOING CATCH THE SHOW AND REQUIRES A FRENCH TELEVISION STATION THIS POSITION FOR.R. WHOHO W WE ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED WELL POLISHED BE A FRANCHISE ON THE THURSDAY BEFORE HE OR HIS FOURTH MEETING WHICH WAS TWENTY EIGHT.T. AND AUGUST SIX THE CITY PUBLISH THE SOUL ALSO AN AGREEMENT WITH ENERGY PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT THE PROPOSED INTERCONNECTION AGREEMENT..I WANTED TO SORT OF HIGHLIGHTS OF THE CHANGES BETWEEN WHAT WAS PUBLISHED ON AUGUST SIX WAS PUBLISHED LAST MONDAY IN THOSE AGREEMENTS.S.SO ONE OF THE CHANGES WAS THE SCENE NOW WOULD HAVE TO SIXTY MUST DECIDE WHETHER THE GHG OPT OUT PROVISION..THE PROGRAM

[18:12] THIRTY DAYS OR FRANCHISE ON THE DOWNWARD REVISION OLD DISCRETIONARY FUNDS TO.O. UNIVERSITIES WHILE GH TO CLARIFY THERE'S A PROVISION NOW THAT ALLOW CITY GREW UP IN FIBER ON POLES PER AGREEMENT TO PROVIDE FOR BROADBAND CONNECTED TO ELECTRICAL POLES. UNDERGROUND TRENCHES OF THE THE PROPOSED ARENA ADDED TWENTY TWO ELECTION.N.TWENTY TWENTY TWO ELECTIONS ONE IN WHICH EXCEL AND YOU CAN PRESENT A CURRENT NOW PROVIDES THAT THEY WILL NOT.. MAKE ANY REPORT CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS IN TWENTY TWENTY TWENTY OR TWENTY TWENTY TWO.O. RECEIVED ADDITIONAL LANGUAGE FROM XL ALL INCLUDING THE TWENTY TWENTY FOUR DOWN TWENTY FIVE EURO VISION SO THAT WE DO NOT JUST ANY THREE.E.WEWE CLARIFIED ABLE TO RECEIVE RELIABILITY THIS CITY AND SEE STANCE BALLS OF THE ISSUES OF RELIABILITY.Y.THE CITY HASAS

[19:02] IN RETURN AGREED TO DISMISS THE PENDING APPEAL CONDEMNATION CASE..SOSOO A AS I SAID THERE ARE PROVISIONS TO ALLOW THE SEED OF DOUBT IF EXCEL DOES NOT NEED CERTAIN GHG REDUCTION TARGETS BETWEEN TWENTY TO TWENTY FOUR TWENTY SEVEN..THIS I IS THE FIRST ON THE DESK AMID FIRM TARGETS FOR THOSE YEARS AND JOGGING SHOPPING HOME TO COME EXPLAIN THIS LIGHT IN THE NEXT ONE. THANKS TOM APPRECIATE IT..THTHEE MAYOR'S COUNSEL JENNIFER COHEN CHIEF SUSTAINABILITY RESOURCE OFFICER.R.SOSO IS SUNT I THINK BECAUSE OF ITS SIGNIFICANCE I WAS ASKED TO DO A BIT OF A DEEPER DIVE INTO THE MISSION SECTION OF THE AGREEMENT.T.SO ALL D DOA LITTLE ORIENTATION OF THE SLIME JUST A MINUTE BUT THERE ARE THREE POINTS AND I REALLY WANTED TO MAKE MY TIME. SO THE FIRST RELATES TO THE IMPORTANCE OF THESE INTERIM TARGETS..SOSO I I THINK W WE AL KNOW THAT SHOULD COUNCIL CHOOSES AMID THE FRANCHISE INITIATED SETTLEMENT OVER VOTERS THIS FALL.L. AND SHOULD

[20:04] VOTERS APPROVE THE AGREEMENT STRIKING EXCELS EMISSIONS OVER THE NEXT DECADE REALLY NEEDS TO BE DONE ACCURATELY AND CONSISTENTLY SO.. THE INTERIM TARGETS WERE ADDED TO ENSURING CELLS MAKING THE NECESSARY PROGRESS TO MEET THE TWENTY THIRD REQUIREMENT.T. SO COUNCIL HEARD ME TALK A LOT ABOUT THE NUMBER OF BILLS PASSED LAST YEAR THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY.Y. CLIMATE RELATED BILLS AND TWENTY NINETEEN AND IMPOSE NEW REQUIREMENTS FOR ELECTRIC UTILITIES SPECIFICALLY TO THE REQUIREMENTS SET FORTH AND HOUSE BILL TWELVE SIXTY ONE AND SENATE BILL TWO THIRTY SIX.. A AS YOU MIGHT RECALL TWELVE SIXTY ONE CONCERNS THE OVERARCHING REDUCTION IN STATEWIDE GREENHOUSE GASES. AND THOSE BILLS ESTABLISH THE REQUIREMENT FOR EXCEL AND OTHER UTILITIES TO ACHIEVE THAT EIGHTY PERCENT REDUCTION IN EMISSIONS BY TWENTY THIRTY.Y.SOSO WHAT THE RULES DON'T PROVIDE THOUGH IS THAT LEVEL OF RESOLUTION THAT REALLY SHOWS THE PROGRESS BEING MADE IN THOSE TEN YEARS.. S SO THE INTERIM TARGET SHOWN IN THIS CRAP REPRESENT THE EMISSIONS MILESTONES IN EXCEL HAS AGREED TO HEAD AND EARS TWENTY TWENTY TWO TWENTY TWENTY OR TWENTY SEVEN BEFORE REACHING THAT TWENTY THIRTY DEADLINE.E.SOSO AS REMINDER THE

[21:01] NUMBERS REPRESENT EXCELS EMISSIONS STATEWIDE NOT JUST IN BOULDER.R.SOSO I IF YOU LOOT THE GRAPH WITH YOUR SCENE IS ALONG THE TOP YOU SEE THAT TWO THOUSAND AND FIVE.E. EXCELS EMISSIONS IN THE YEAR TWO THOUSAND AND FIVE OR ROUGHLY THIRTY FOUR MILLION TONNES OF CARBON DIOXIDE IN IT SO THAT IS THE BASELINE BY WHICH THEIR MISSION REDUCTIONS ARE BEING MEASURED.D.SOSO WHAT THE SECOND POINT IS THAT YOU CAN SEE EMISSIONS LISTED IN THE YEAR IS BETWEEN TWENTY AND TWENTY TWO AND TWENTY THIRTY.. ARE MEASURED IN A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT WAYS HE IS NOT HERE TO COVER THE OUTSIDE BUT IT'S ACTUALLY SEALED TO YOU OR CARBON DIOXIDE EQUIVALENT.. THIS IS AN IMPORTANT POINT THAT I WANT TO RAISE PO BUT WITH COUNSEL IN THE COMMUNITY..SOSO I IN ESTABLISHG THE TARGETS INCLUDED IN THE SETTLEMENTS..HEHE WAS A A PREFERABLE MATCH RICK TISSUE TOO SO WE CAN ACCOUNT FOR THE MISSIONS BOTH DIRECT AND INDIRECT OTHER GREENHOUSE GASES ASSOCIATED WITH THAT SELLS ACTIVITIES.S.SOSO SEEMS O

[22:01] ME INCLUDES NATALIE CARBON DIOXIDE OR OTHER HARMFUL GREENHOUSE GASES INCLUDING METHANE WHICH I WANT TO COME BACK TO JUST A MOMENT IS MUCH MORE COMPREHENSIVE.E.IT'S A A BETTER SNAPSHOT OF THE MISSIONS AND WILL BE THE BASIS BY WHICH WE TRACKING SALES PROGRESS ON THE NEW CONTINENTS LIKE US AND YOU TOO FAR THOUGH.H.SOSO THEHE NET POINT I WANT TO MAKE IS THE IMPORTANCE OF THE TRACKING MEASURING AND VERIFICATION OF THOSE EMISSIONS.S.THTHE AGREEMENT PROPOSES USING THE CLIMATE REGISTRY TO TRACK MEASURE AND VERIFY PROGRESS.S. THE REGISTRY IS A RECOGNIZED PLATFORM ARE CREDIBLE AND CONSISTENT GREENHOUSE GAS REPORTING.. REPORTS FOR MISSIONS IN THE CLIMATE REGISTRY IS BASIC AND ELECTRIC POWER SECTOR PROTOCOL WHICH HAS REPORTING REQUIREMENTS INCLUDE ALL ASPECTS OF ELECTRICITY SUPPLY SYSTEM INCLUDING POWER GENERATION TRANSMISSION DISTRIBUTION.N. INCLUDING A DIRECT AND INDIRECT EMISSIONS ASSOCIATED WITH THINGS LIKE TRANSMISSION AND DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM LOSSES..WEWE ALSO INTEND

[23:09] TO VERIFY EMISSIONS THROUGH OTHER MEANS ARE ON THE SCREEN INCLUDING THE FEDERAL REGISTER MANDATORY GREENHOUSE GAS REPORTING.. EXCELS ANNUAL REPORTING TO THE CARBON DISCLOSURE PROJECT AND EXCELS ANNUAL CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY REPORTS SO YOU WOULD COME BACK TO THIS ISSUE OF METHANE FOR A MOMENT. I THINK COUNCILORS HEARD A LOT OF CONCERN IN THE COMMUNITY AND RIGHTLY SO.O.TRACKING THE PAIN ASSOCIATED WITH EXCELS ACTIVITIES IS REALLY CRITICAL.L. A ASS EMISSIONS FRM BURNING AND TRANSPORTING NATURAL GAS ARE SUBSTANTIAL AND REALLY DO OCCUR AT EVERY STAGE OF THE NATURAL GAS LIE CYCLE SO THAT INCLUDES PRE PRODUCTION AND REPRODUCTION PROCESS SEEM TRANSMISSION DISTRIBUTION.N.SOSO WHILE INVENTORIES TYPICALLY ONLY CALCULATE THE MATH PAIN ASSOCIATED WITH THE BURNING OF NATURAL GAS UPSTREAM ACCIDENTAL LEAKS IN ROUTINE THEN TEAM WHICH IS TYPICALLY CALLED FUGITIVE METHANE EMISSIONS CAN SOMETIMES BE OVERLOOKED.D.SOSO I I FEEL

[24:04] COMPELLED TO MENTION ALSO THAT IN ADDITION TO ITS GREENHOUSE GAS POTENTIAL.L. METHANE EMISSIONS ARE ALSO CONTRIBUTE TO THE FORMATION OF GROUND LEVEL OZONE OR SMOG.G. WHICH CAUSES RESPIRATORY AND CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES PARTICULARLY IN LOW INCOME COMMUNITIES.. OF COLOR OR OZONE LEVELS ARE DISPROPORTIONATELY HIGH AND THIS IS REALLY IMPORTANT AS WE CONSIDER THE EQUITY LINES OF OUR CLIMATE EFFORTS.S. S SOO YOU KNOW AS WE DISCUSSED ALL EMISSIONS INCLUDING FUGITIVE METHANE ARE TO BE INCLUDED IN THE PROPOSED EMISSION TARGETS OF THE CLIMATE REGISTRY.. ORIGINAL REPORTING PROTOCOL AND ELECTRIC POWER SECTOR PROTOCOL AS WELL AS THE MANDATORY GREENHOUSE GAS REPORTING PROVISIONS IN THE CODE OF REGULATIONS DO REQUIRE THE TRACKING AND REPORTING A FUGITIVE METHANE.E. BUT THE REGISTRY ALSO REQUIRES VERIFICATION THROUGH THIRD PARTY AUDIT OF THE REPORTING GREENHOUSE CANCER FREE SO I'LL JUST CONCLUDE ALSO IN ADDITION TO THE CLIMATE REGISTRY.Y.WE D DO INTD TO TRACK EXCELS METHANE EMISSIONS THROUGH THE ONE FUTURE CONSORTIUM..SOSO ONE

[25:07] FUTURE SETS INDIVIDUAL TARGETS FOR EACH SEGMENT OF THE NATURAL GAS SUPPLY CHAIN.. WAS A A MEMBER EXCELS REQUIRED REPORT ANNUALLY ON A CONFERENCE OF METHANE EMISSIONS RATE.E. S SO THAT WIL START IN TWENTY TWENTY ONE WHEN EXCEL WILL FIRST REPORT FROM METHANE EMISSIONS FROM HIS VISION SYSTEM.. WILL BE EXPANDED IN TWENTY TWENTY TWO IN THE REPORT THE METHANE EMISSIONS FROM ALL SEGMENTS OF THEIR BUSINESS INCLUDING PROCESSING TRANSMISSION STORAGE AND DISTRIBUTION.N.SOSO THE MATH A MOMENT I'LL JUST POINT OUT IS NOT SPECIFICALLY CALL OUT IN THE AGREEMENT THAT THE METHANE REPORTING WILL BE CAPTURED IN THE OVERALL EMISSIONS BENCHMARKS. THE LAST THING I WOULD SAY IS IT STARTING IN TWENTY TWENTY ONE..EXCEL WILL BE REQUIRED TO FOLLOW THE REQUIREMENTS IN COLORADO ADOPTED TUESDAY'S REGULATION SEVEN AND THAT SEEKS TO REGULATE EMISSIONS FROM OIL AND GAS OPERATIONS THAT ARE THE PRECURSOR TO OZONE I WAS MENTIONING.SO STARTING IN TWENTY AND TWENTY ONE..SOSO HOW DOES EMIT METHANE

[26:01] EMISSIONS INFORMATION TO THE STATE SO TO CONCLUDE THE INTENT IS TO UTILIZE ALL OF THESE RESOURCES TO ACTIVELY TRACKING REPORT OUT ON EXCELS PROGRESS IN REDUCING ITS EMISSIONS.S. CERTAINLY THERE ARE ADDITIONAL RESOURCES WE OUGHT TO BE CONSIDERING IN ADDITION TO THOSE LISTED.D.WEWE CAN INCLUDE THOSE IN OUR POTENTIAL FUTURE VERIFICATION EFFORTS WITH THAT I WOULD TURN IT BACK OVER TIME..SOSO HOWOW W WE STRUCTURED THE AGREEMENT TO ENFORCE THOSE PROVISIONS AND MAKE SURE THE XL ACTUALLY FOLLOWS THROUGH WITH THE PLAN.N. S SO THAT THE AGREEMENT HAS PROVISIONS THAT ALLOW FOR THE CITY TO DEPART THE FRANCHISE'S EIGHT SEVEN SIX DIFFERENT YEARS SO THAT THE CITY WOULD BE ABLE TO PARK IN.N. TWENTY FIVE TWENTY THIRTY TWENTY THIRTY SIX TWENTY FIVE EVERY FIVE YEARS.S.THIS IS WITHOUT ANY RESTRICTION FOR ANY REASON WAS FOR.R. BOULDER MAY ALSO END A FRANCHISE AND TWENTY THREE TWENTY FIVE TWENTY EIGHT IF IT IS EXCELLENT HE FAILS TO MEET YOU SHE REDUCTION TARGETS

[27:00] THAT ARE JUST DISCUSSED.D. CLEAR THAT THERE ARE THREE WAYS THE COUNCIL THAT THE CITY CANNOT DECIDE ACTUALLY ANY OF THOSE SIX HOURS UP TO US BY TWO THIRDS VOTE OF COUNCIL.L. COUNCIL AS A MEASURE ON THE BOWING TO COMMUNITY POLICING BALLOT LANGUAGE DOESN'T SAY IT HAS TO BE COUNSELOR SAYS THAT VOTERS PASSED MEASURE ROUTE. ONE AND NOW ASKS TO USE TO TALK A LITTLE BIT OF THE ENERGY PORTION.N.SOSO ONENE OFE SIGNIFICANT AGREEMENTS THAT WE'VE DEVELOPED IS THE ENERGY PARTNER.. SHOULD AGREEMENT AND THE PURPOSE OF THIS AGREEMENT REALLY HAS BEEN TO PROVIDE US HALFWAY TO WORK WITH EXCEL IN PARTNERSHIP TO FURTHER THE CITY'S GOALS AM REALLY TO ADDRESS THE CITY'S VALUES..SO

[28:06] IT'S LOOKING FOR OPPORTUNITIES TO IMPROVE THE RESILIENCE AND RELIABILITY WHILE DESIGNING SOLUTIONS THAT ARE ACCESSIBLE AND EQUITABLE TO ALL THE MEMBERS OF OUR UNITY..IT'S ALSO FOCUSED ON REALLY.Y.BRIDGING THAT GAP ASS DISCUSSED EARLIER..EXCEL HAS A GOALAL FOR EIGHTY PERCENT GREENHOUSE GASES AND DRUMS AND POSTED A GREAT EXPLANATION OF HOW WE WILL MONITOR.R. THE CITY WILL HAVE A GOAL OF ONE HUNDRED PERCENT RENEWABLE ELECTRICITY SERVING BOWL OR TWENTY THIRD ON A FEW WOULD'VE MINDED FANS.S. SO WEWE ARERE REALLY GT REALLY STARTS TO SET A VISION FOR HOW WE WILL WORK TOGETHER SO.O. W WE HAVE GOALS AND VALUS

[29:01] OF THE COMMUNITY WHICH ARE TO REDUCE OUR GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS REALLY ENHANCE THE RESILIENCE OF THE COMMUNITY TO ENSURE THAT WE'RE CREATING AN EQUITABLE WORK ON.. I IT SO ALSO THOSE GOALS ARE TRYING TO ACHIEVE SEWED TOGETHER THE INTENT OF THIS PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT AND SO WE WILL WORK TOGETHER.R. ANDND THE PATHWAY R US TO DO THAT IS THROUGH THE ELECTRIFICATION OF OUR BUILT ENVIRONMENT TRANSPORTATION ON IN ORDER TO SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCE THE EMISSIONS FROM THE CITY.Y. FROM A FEFEW OF MY MOVG FORWARD SO THE GOAL OF THE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT REALLY ARE HAVE TRIED TO ESTABLISH BOTH QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE GOALS.S.I DO WANT TO NOTE THAT THE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT THOUGH IS REALLY.Y.

[30:03] FOCUSED ON NOT JUST A HANDFUL OF PROJECTS.. N NOO MORE ON THE PROCESS OF HOW WE'LL WORK TOGETHER TO INTRODUCE PROJECTS.S. T TO MOVE THEM THROUGH AN ANALYSIS TO SEE IF IT'S WORTH TAKING TO THE NEXT LEVEL AND PURSUE IN DEEP ANALYSIS OF THOSE PROSPECTS. EVEN SOME PROJECTS WE HAVE LOOKED AT DOING TOGETHER WHILE THEIR GREAT PRODUCTS.S. IT'S A QUESTION OF ARE TO BE FEASIBLE AND HOW CAN THIS FOE OR SO TIMES HE WOULD MIND MOVING FORWARD.D.SOSO I I DO WT TO POINT OUT THE CORE PRINCIPLES THAT.. WE REALLY INTO SPACE AS WE LOOK AT THESE PROJECTS HAS THEM TO ENSURE THAT THEIR EQUITABLE THAT WERE PROVIDING ACCESS TO ALL OF THE MEMBERS OF OUR UNITY.. ANDND WE'RERE DOING PROGRAMS NOT ONLY DRESSED..

[31:04] ELECTRICIAN BUT INCLUDE DEMAND SIDE MANAGEMENT WHICH IS SO.. ABILITY TO SEE ABILITY TO HELP PEOPLE CONTROL THEIR BILLS FOR TRANSPORTATION WHICH IS A DRESS AND OF COURSE THE OTHER MAJOR CONTRIBUTOR TO OUR MISSIONS.. AND MOVING OTHER PROJECTS FOR WORK SUCH AS PILOTS DEAL AND STORAGE THAN ON OTHER ASPECTS THAT ARE BROADER BEEN FOR THE BOULDER ON MY.Y. PARART OF THE WAY WILL ENSURE THAT WE ARE ABLE TO MOVE THESE PROJECTS FORWARD IS THROUGH THE GOVERNMENTS OF THE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT.. ANDND E HAVE ESTABLISHED IS WE WILL HAVE AN EXECUTIVE TEAM.M. WILL BE MADE UP OF THE PRESIDENT OF EXCEL IN COLORADO FROM.M. OUR CITY MANAGER AND OTHER

[32:00] EXECUTIVE LEADERSHIP FROM EACH OF THE ORGANIZATION'S PURPOSE OF THE EXECUTIVE TEAM OF COURSE.. I ISS THESE ARE INDIVIDUALS THAT HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO DEDICATE RESOURCES AND TIME AND PERSONNEL TO MOVING THESE PROJECTS FORWARD.D. WITH THEM WILL ESTABLISH AN OVERSIGHT TEAM WHO ARE REALLY THE SUBJECT ARE THE EXPERTS AND ALSO THE MANAGERS AND THAT LEVEL.. WHO CAN ASSIGN PEOPLE WHO CAN MOVE THE PROJECT FORWARD.. AND WHAT THEY'LL BE DOING IS ALSO A STUNNING PROJECT MANAGEMENT IN STEM FOR THE INDIVIDUAL TASKS IS PROJECT MANAGEMENT TEAMS WILL BE MADE UP OF SUBJECT MATTER EXPERTS..THEY REALLY HAVE THE ABILITY TO DELIVER ON EACH OF THESE PROJECTS AND TO ENSURE THAT WE'RE INCLUDING THE COMMUNITY AND ON.N. THEIR EXPERTISE WE WILL ALSO BE ESTABLISHING AN ADVISORY PANEL WITH UP TO FIFTEEN REPRESENTATIVES FROM

[33:00] RESIDENTIAL COMMERCIAL INDUSTRIAL AND THE UNIVERSITY IN ORDER TO ENSURE A BIT. OF A COMMUNITY VOICE AND WHAT WE'RE DOING WRONG PLEASE.E. THESE PROJECTS IS WELL W WL BE ESTABLISHED WITH THE SODA GOALS AND METRICS AND CRITERIA FOR ARM THUS ENSURING THAT THE PROJECT IS BOTH.H. VIABLBLE AND WILL BE SUCCESSFUL SO AS WE START TO EVALUATE EACH OF THESE PROJECTS.S. W WE WANT TO EVALUE HOW IT MOVES US TOWARDS OUR GOALS AND OUR VALUES AND OH REALLY WHAT THE CHANGE ON MISSIONS WILL BE HOW WILL IT INCREASE OUR RENEWABLE CAPACITY.Y.WHAT'S THE OVERALL SYSTEM INSPIRED PROVE LIABILITY ACT IS FULLY PURSUE THESE PROJECTS.S. AND WHAT'S THE FINANCIAL IMPACT ON BOULDER RESIDENTS AND BUSINESSES AND THE FINANCIAL IMPACT COULD BE BOTH COST AND THE SAVINGS TO OUR COMMUNITY.Y.

[34:05] SOSO I IF YOU AREE THE ONLY WAYA SERVICE OF OUR FILTERING CRITERIA THAT PROJECTS MUST PASS THROUGH AND PONDEROUS NEED TO BE SOMETHING THAT WOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED ANYWAY.Y. S SO THIS NEEDS TO BA PROJECT RELATED TO THE PARTNERSHIP AND HOW TO MOVE FORWARD IT NEEDS TO BE AVAILABLE TO ALL OF THE REAL RELEVANT CUSTOMERS IN BOULDER.. THEATER WITH THE PROJECT'S TARGET AREA. AND ALSO NEEDS TO LINE WAS BOULDER'S COMMITMENT TO RACIAL EQUITY AND WILL INCLUDE PATHWAYS FOR THOSE COMMUNITY MEMBERS DON'T TYPICALLY HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO ACCESS PROGRAMS OR PROJECTS.S. AND THE PROGRAMS AND PROJECTS NEED TO BE DESIGNED AND STRUCTURED TO HAVE HER BROUGHT US TO UNPACK TWO RESIDENCES AND BUSINESSES AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.. AND THE

[35:04] NEWS TO INCLUDE TARGETS AND METRICS FOR EACH OF THESE AGREEMENTS.S. S SOO ALSO INCLUD IN THE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT IS THE SON OF THE CURRENT DATA TO EXCEL HAS AGREED TO SHARE WITH US IN THE PAST OF THIS HAS.. SOME INFORMATION THAT HAS BEEN DIFFICULT TO RECEIVE AND WHAT THIS DOES IS SHORT FOR TWO THINGS CAN HAPPEN.N.ONONE BEING THAT SHOUD THE CITY DECIDE TO OPT OUT..WEE HAVE ENOUGH INFORMATION TO UNDERSTAND WHAT A STRANGE STRONG THE ELECTRIC SYSTEM AND HOW IT'S OPERATING ABOUT TWENTY TIMES SO THAT OUR CURRENT SEPARATION PLAN THAT WE'VE BEEN PURSUING.. IS UP T O DATE AND WE CACAN COMEE FROMM WHERE WE'RE AT WITH THAT PLAN AND SO OR SO ALONG THE LINES THESE POINTS OF DATA ARE VALUABLE INFORMATION THAT..

[36:15] MUCH OF THE STATE IS ALSO VERY VALUABLE AND FORMING HOW WE DESIGN PROGRAMS AND PROJECTS IN THE COMMUNITY IN ORDER TO BEST FACILITATE THE DEPLOYMENT OF RESOURCES SOLAR RESOURCES.. DEMAND SIDE MANAGEMENT PROGRAMS ARE VERY SPECIFIC AREAS THAT ARE.E. BETTER SUITED TO A DIFFERENT TYPE OF PROJECT SO ALL OF THE STATE APPOINTS WILL REALLY HELP US TO REFINE THE PROGRAMS WE HAVE.E. AND THAT WILL BE UNDERTAKEN IN THE FUTURE TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY ARE TARGETED IN A WAY THAT THEY CAN ACHIEVE THE HIGHEST GOALS OF OUR COMMUNITY.Y.TONGNG

[37:00] YUEN MUN LONGER THAT WE ALSO HAVE AGREED TO PURSUE SOME REGULATORY CHANGES. PROBABLY THE MOST IMPORTANT ONE OF THESE IS TO MOVE THROUGH THE LEGISLATURE AN INCREASE OR ELIMINATION OF ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY PERCENT LIMITATION ON SITE GENERATION.N.THIS IS SOMETHING THAT EXISTS IN THE RENEWABLE ENERGY STANDARD WAS UP TO FIND MANY YEARS AGO PROVIDES LIMITATION ON HOW MUCH SOLAR OR.R. OTHER TECHNOLOGIES CAN INSTALL ON YOUR FACILITY AND WE HAVE HEARD A LOT FROM OUR COMMUNITY ABOUT THE FRUSTRATION LIVE WITH THIS LIMITATION WHERE YOU MAY HAVE A WAREHOUSE WITH US..THOUSANDS OF SQUARE FEET HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF SQUARE FEET OF ROOF TOP SPACE A VERY SMALL ELECTRICAL LOAD AM STRONG DESIRE TO INSTALL MORE SOLAR THAN THEY ARE ALLOWED TO.O.SOSO WE'VE AGREED TO MOVE FORWARD IN TRYING TO CHANGE AS I NOTED EARLIER WE'VE ALSO AGREED TO DEVELOP A NEW TARIFF TO INFATUATED.D.THTHE

[38:06] CONVERSION OF BUS FLEETS TO ELECTRIC BUSES RIGHT NOW.W. THERE ARE SOME CHALLENGES WITH THE GENERAL SERVICE TRIED TO MAN RATE OF THAT MAKES A VERY HARD TO MAKE. THE STRATEGY IN COST EFFECTIVE BECAUSE OF THE SIGNIFICANT BLOW TO THE APPARITIONS NEW TROJAN OF US.. WE ALSO ARE LOOKING TO REMOVE BARRIERS TO LARGER AMOUNTS OF DISTRIBUTED GENERATION AND TO FACILITATE FACILITATE MY KROGER AND PROSPEROUS HOME PLEASE.E.ADDITIONALLY WE'VE IDENTIFIED SOME BEADING PROJECTS AS I NOTED THE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENTS AND TO BE A PROCESS WHERE WE CAN REVIEW EXAMINED AND MOVE THESE PROJECTS FORWARD.D.SOSO N MY TRIP TO RENO WE WOULD LIKE TO TAKE A LOOK AT THE POTENTIAL FOR MICRO GRID AND CHAUTAUQUA.A. ALONG WITH THE

[39:05] SOLAR RESOURCES SUPPORTED IN THE AREA WE'VE LOOKED AT THE CAPACITY OF SOLAR ON WATER STORAGE TANK GO THER.R. ARE RIGHT NOW THAT WOULD BE VERY DIFFICULT PROJECT TO O IS POSSIBLE WE NEED TO STUDY AND MOVE THEM FORWARD..IT I IS MY ALL TIME ALSO HAS ANOTHER ENERGY CENTER.. WITH THE MICRO GRID COMPONENT TO IT CURRENTLY THE CITY DOES MOVE FORWARD WITH HIS STUDIES AND CONSULTANTS TO DETERMINE THE FEASIBILITY OF DOING A PROJECT FOR WHAT THAT MIGHT MEAN.N.SOSO A ASS THAT MOVES FD WITH THE WORK OF THE CONSOLE WILL BRING SNOW INTO THE SOON.N. T TO ENSURE THAT WE CAN MOVE THEM FOR OTHER PROJECTS WERE LOOKING MATTER OF ENERGY STORES THROUGH HYDROGEN.. THERE ARE ALSO TO POINT OUT THERE ARE SOME CAUTIONARY AVENUES AND SOUL IS BROUGHT TO THE TABLE TODAY THAT NEED TO BE EXPLORED FOR THESE PROJECTS.S. IN THEIR WILDFIRE

[40:06] MITIGATION FILING THEIR STATE FUNDING FOR PROJECTS TO ENHANCE THAT MITIGATION OF THEIRS OF COURSE THE ONE PERSON UNDERGROUND TO THE CITY WILL BE RECEIVING.. THERE'S ALSO THE INNOVATION CLEANTECH CHAIR OF UC HAS BEEN IN PLACE FOR SOME TIME TO HELP FACILITATE THE WORK THAT INSTALLED IT WITH PANASONIC DOWN IN.. DENVER AND THERE'S ALSO THE TRANSPORTATION A LECTURE PLANNED INNOVATION PORTION OF THEIR WORLD RELATED TO TRANSPORTATION.N. COUPLE OF OTHER PROJECTS WERE LOOKING AFTER THEM AND RESPONDS BATTERIES HOMES AND WE WOULD LIKE TO START EXAMINING THE POTENTIAL FOR STREETLIGHT PARR LIVES.S.O CURRENT WE OF COURSE COMMUNITIES HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO PURCHASE. THEIR STREET LIGHTS SO WE WOULD LIKE TO LOOK AT THOSE THE NEXT LEVEL OF THAT AND CONTROL SYSTEMS AND WHAT CAN BE DONE AT THE NEXT YEAR.R.

[41:10] STREAMLINING KONG A FEW OF MINE.. S SOO WE HAVEVE OF CE MANY COMMENTS FROM THE COMMUNITY ABOUT THE RECENT ARE A FEW THAT WE PUT OUT AND I JUST WANT TO GIVE AN UPDATE ON.N. WHERE WE'RE AT CURRENTLY WITH THE LOCAL POWER INITIATIVES AS WE MOVE THROUGH THESE NEGOTIATIONS TO WORK ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE UNI HAS NOT STOPPED.. ONE OF THE ACTIVITIES WE'VE HAD UNDERWAY WAS A RFP FOR OUR SUPPORT THE INNOVATIVE FINANCING WE RECEIVE THOSE.E. LESS THAN A WEEK AGO WE HAVE.. STARTED TO EVALUATE HIM IN AND OF COURSE ARE COMPLICATED AND WILL REQUIRE A LOT OF DIGGING.G. WE RECEIVE TEN DIFFERENT BINS OF THOSE TWO WITH THOSE BIDDERS WERE FULL REQUIREMENT OFFERS THAT MEANS THEY COULD SUPPLY THE CITY WITH ONE HUNDRED PERCENT RENEWABLES AS WE MOVE INTO OPERATION..THEY ALSO PROVIDED

[42:17] SOME FINANCING STRUCTURES AND SOME ALTERNATIVES THAT WERE REALLY GOING AFTER THE BIG AND TWO.. SO THAT THAT IS CURRENTLY UNDERWAY OF THOSE TEN OFFERS WE ALSO RECEIVED PART FIVE PARTIAL REQUIREMENT OFFERS WERE SMALLER.. BUT SOME UTILITY SCALE SOLAR AND WIND AS WELL AS SOME COMMUNITY SCALE PROJECTS AND WE DID RECEIVE ONE OFFER FOR LOCAL BATTERY ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM AND TO OUR SUPPLY PROPOSALS.. THE PRICES FOR THE OVERALL REQUIREMENT PROJECTS ARE VERY COMPARABLE TO WHAT WE RECEIVED AN R TWO THOUSAND EIGHTEEN REQUESTS FOR INDICATIVE PRICING.G. AND HAVE

[43:06] SAVED THEM ON HOLD IN OUR FINANCIAL FORECAST WILL.. B BEE VERY INTERESTING THESE NUMBERS MAY BE VERY APPROPRIATE FOR THE CITY ITSELF PARTNERSHIP ON THEIR PROJECTS THAT ARE HERE LOCALLY THAT WOULD HELP US CLOSE THAT GAP..WE'RE STRIVING TO ACHIEVE SO WE WILL CONTINUE TO DIG INTO THOSE PARTICULAR PROPOSALS WITHOUT HIM ON.N. M MYY U UM ALSO RELAO THE CURRENT STATUS OF LOCAL POWER INITIATIVE.E. O ON THE LEGAL SIDE WE ARE CURRENTLY STAGING ON PAUSE UNTIL THE FUEL RELATED TO OUR SECOND CONDEMNATION ACTION IS RESOLVED AND WE DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT TIME FRAME WOULD BE.E. I IF WE CONTINUE WE'RE AO WAITING ON A FIRM DECISION ON SUBSTATION USE AND A VISION.N.

[44:00] OF THEM WE ARE WAITING ON A DECISION FOR THEM WE DON'T KNOW WHEN THAT DECISION WILL BE ON THE ENGINEERING SIDE SO SUBSTATION ENGINEERING DESIGNS ARE TO BE COMPLETED INNOCTOBER BOULDER SUBSTATION ENGINEERING DESIGN AND ESTIMATES ARE ONGOING AND ONCE WE RECEIVE SOULS WE WILL COMPLETE OUR.R. EXCEL HAS COMPLETED ITS DISTRIBUTION ENGINEERING DESIGNS.. AND BOULDER IS ACTUALLY THAT SHOULD SAVE NINETY FIVE PERCENT COMPLETE WITH DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM DESIGN AND WE ANTICIPATE HAVING THAT GOES ON COMPLETED IN OCTOBER BUT ALSO A QUESTION ABOUT THE NEW BUDGET THE TOWN.N.THIS IS OUOUR CURRENT PN THE ANTICIPATED TIMELINE WE WERE ON WAS TO MOVE TO A GO GO AND TWENTY TWENTY ONE..WEWE

[45:03] ANTICIPATE THAT WE WOULD BORROW THE U TWENTY TWENTY TWO REVENUE FROM THE UTILITY OCCUPATION TAX IN TWENTY TWENTY ONE IN ORDER TO COMPLETE THE PROJECT OR.. A AS OH WE HAVE MOVED FORWARD AND THE SIGNIFICANT IMPACT OF COURSE COHEN HAS A HAND THE DELAY HAS CAUSED WE HAVE ELIMINATED AND THE NEED TO.O. KNOW MORE MONEY FROM THE GENERAL FUND IS TO MOVE THIS FORWARD TO IN ORDER TO DO THAT WE HAVE HAD TO STRETCH OUR TIMELINE.E.SOSO THIS PARTICULAR ANTICIPATED PROJECT BUDGET.T. REALLY WERE SENT INTO SPACE TO DRAW FROM THE GENERAL FUND SO WE'RE NOT HAVING ANY IMPACT THERE.. BUTUT IT WILL ONLY CARRY US THROUGH TWENTY TWENTY TWO AM IN PREVIOUS DISCUSSIONS I'VE DESCRIBED THIS SCENARIO AS ALL STARS ALIGN.. EVERYTHING

[46:07] GOES PERFECTLY IN THIS BOMB ON HIM THIS SCENARIO HAN WE DON'T HAVE ANY ADDITIONAL LEGAL CHALLENGES AND WE DON'T HAVE ANY ADDITIONAL EXPENSES.S. WITHOUT WE ANTICIPATE WE COULD TAKE THIS TO A VOTE FROM ITS POLARIZATION AND TWENTY TWENTY TWO..BARRINING SOME UNKNOWN EVENT.T.THOUGHGH E MECHANISM AND THIS WHOLE PROCESS IS THE CITY'S CONTINUED GREAT TO BE ABLE TO CROON A SPORT UTILITY.. AND SO IS THAT COUPLES LOVE TO TALK ABOUT WHAT THAT HE'S.S. OUT WITH THE AGREEMENT DOESN'T DO IN THAT AREA.A. S SO AS I SAID BEFORE THERE IS A TWO HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS COUNTY WERE NATION INCLUDING ACQUISITION COST REAL PROPERTY INTEREST GOING CONCERN DAMAGE THE REMAINDER OF TWO EXISTING STATIONS.S. HERE IS A A COSOST

[47:01] OF LIVING ADJUSTMENT THAT KICKS IN ON JANUARY TWENTY ONE FOR IF THEIR PRE DEPARTURE AFTER THAT IT DOES NOT INCLUDE STRANDED COSTS DO IT.T.THERE IS AN AGREEMENT NOW ON SUBSTATION IS ONE OF THE PC DID.D. WAS THEY THEY APPROVE TRANSFER ALL ASSETS OUTSIDE THE SUB STATIONS AND TOLD PORTAGE NEGOTIATE A RESOLUTION OF THE SUBSTATION ISSUES WE'RE WORKING ON THAT LAST TWO YEARS IN.. HAD NOT MADE A LOT OF PROGRESS SO YOU GET SOME PROGRESS AND HAVE SOME THINGS ARE GOING ON BUT THE PROPOSAL.L. THE PROPOSAL BEFORE COUNCIL HAS AN AGREEMENT RESOLVING ALL OUTSTANDING ISSUES FOR SOME STATIONS IN ADDITION TO THE AGREEMENT WOULD PAY THE COST OF ANY OF THESE DISEASE ASSOCIATION.. STUDIES IN DESIGN DRAWINGS ARE MADE NECESSARY BY CHANGES BETWEEN THE TIME OF THE MESSIAH AND

[48:00] ANY ALL OR SHOULD SEE.. THEHE WORDS OF THE PUC EXIST WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT THE GUY TO HIS POSITION USE OF ITS OWN FUTURE AND WILL BE.E. A A SEPARATION WAS BASED ON A LIST OF ASSETS ALSO THE SUBSTATION OVER TWENTY THOUSAND DECISION.N.UMUM WHAT S SO THEHE CITY WILL SUSPEND HIS POSITION FOR. THE VOTERS APPROVE A FRANCHISE THAT COULD COST AGREEMENT WHICH SEES THE WORLD WOULD BE TO ADVANCE ITS OWN COMPLETE THE WORK IS ONGOING AND SOME FOR FUTURE WORK.K.X SOO LEAST TWO LETTERS OF CREDIT THAT HELPS TEACHERS AND ONE ONE SEVEN AND TWO POINT SIX MILLION OR ONE OF THOSE MAYBE JUST THE WORK IS DONE IT'S.. GOING BY BUT THAT STILL HORNY WOMEN SHOULD GET A RELEASE FROM THOSE OBLIGATIONS THE CITY WILL DISMISS THE CAR FOR APPRECIATING THE CONDEMNATION CASE OR CURRENT LITIGATION WILL BE DISMISSED.. AFTER THE

[49:07] ELECTION GOES THROUGH BUT IF THE COUNCIL DISCUSSED THIS ON THE BALLOT THE VICE RECORDS FOR THAT THERE'S A HANDY BOOK IS MOST LIKELY BE ADVANCED OR IN THE ELECTION PROCESS.S.WHAT A TURKEY CHILI OCCUPATION TAX AND ESTATE HERE TO TAKE OVER HERE.E.THTHEE COUNCIL TO HEAR H THE CITY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE AND TALK ABOUT THE MATERIALS IN YOUR PACKET HER JOB FOR WHICH OUR YARD.D.SHSHE PACKS OPTIONSAS YOU WELL KNOW THE UTILITY OCCUPATION TAX IS ATTACKS ON ITSELF OR THE EDGE OF OUR CITY STREETS..HEHE I ISS DELIVERING NATURAL GAS AND ELECTRICITY TO CITY CUSTOMERS..IT WAS PASSED IN

[50:00] TWO THOUSAND TO REPLACE THE WII THAT EXCEL PAID TO THE CITY UNDER THE NINETEEN EIGHTY FRANCHISES.. THE REVENUE FROM THIS GOES INTO THE CITY'S GENERAL FUND.. I IN TWO THOUSAND AND ELEVEN ATTACKS HAS INCREASED THE REVENUE WAS EARMARKED TO BE USED FOR THE PURPOSES OF EXPLORING THE CREATION OF A MUNICIPAL ELECTRIC UTILITY.. TO PORTIONS OF THE ATTACKS HAVE BEEN AMENDED AND EXTENDED BY THE VOTERS.ALSO HE IN TWO THOUSAND AND SEVENTEEN..BOTH ASPECTS OF THE TAX WAS EXTENDED TO EXPIRE AT THE END OF THE YEAR TWO THOUSAND AND TWENTY TWO.. FROM NOW UNTIL THE END OF TWO THOUSAND AND TWENTY TWO.. OF THE CITY CAN COLLECT ONE BILLION DOLLARS FOR ELECTRIC UTILITY OR EXPLORATION CONTINUES TO MOVE FORWARD OR MODIFY AND FOUR POINT SEVEN

[51:00] BILLION DOLLARS PER YEAR FOR THE GENERAL FUND.D.I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT BY THE TERMS OF GOALS ON THE UTILITY OCCUPATION.N. TAX FOR THE GENERAL FUND FOR THIS POSITION BOTH BY THEIR TERMS ARE SET TO EXPIRE IN THE CITY STOPPED PURSUING ITS BORDERS.S. SO THE GENERAL FUND PORTION I THINK THE CITY WILL BE COVERED BECAUSE THERE'S A FRANCHISE FEE REPLACEMENT AND OF COURSE THAT WE ARE THE REVENUE RELATED TO. THAT SUPPORT EXPLORATION PORTION OF THE TAX REFUND PLEASE..SOSO EXTENDING AND WE'RE REPURPOSING.. I IS S A PAUSE AN PORTION OF UTILITY OCCUPATION TAX.. CAN BEE ONENE OF THE

[52:04] REVENUE SOURCE IS USED TO.. SHARE THE PROJECTS IS PART OF THE PARTNERSHIP ARRANGEMENT WITH EXCEL THAT STEEP CACTUS GREAT AS WELL AS TO PURSUE SOME OF THE CITY'S SOCIAL EQUITY GOALS.. IN THE ORDINANCES THAT ARE IN YOUR PACKET X'S O'S BE USED TO PROVIDE ENERGY RELATED ASSISTANCE TO DISADVANTAGED MEMBERS OF THE MEN INCLUDING SUPPORT FOR UTILITY PAYMENTS AND ACCESS OR.R. MORE EQUITABLY FOR THE ENERGY IMPROVES SYSTEM RELIABILITY AND MODERNIZATION AND SUPPORTING CLEAN ENERGY RELATED BUSINESSES INCLUDING NEW APPROACHES AND ELECTRIFICATION OF TRANSPORTATION AND THE ENHANCED RESILIENCE.. ALSO COULD BE USED IS THAT MENTION TO IMPLEMENT THE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT WITH THE EXCEL

[53:00] ENERGY. AND INCREASE ACCESS TO ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND RENEWABLE ENERGY SOLUTIONS THAT THOSE COMPONENTS ARE FOUND IN BOTH OPTIONS YOU CAN HACK IT..NEXT LIGHTHTSOSO I INS OF THE TWO OPTIONS THAT ARE BEFORE YOU.U. PASS ON FIRST READING ORDINANCE BEFORE ONE SIX WHICH IS UNDER ACTIVE SHOOTER FOR SIMPLY CREATES THIS NEW PERSON THAT I JUST DESCRIBED.. THE REVENUE THAT'S GENERATED BY THE UTILITY OCCUPATION TAX PORTION THAT IS DEDICATED TO THIS AGE SIGN ORDINANCE NUMBER EIGHT FOUR ONE SEVEN WHICH IS TO REPURPOSE AN EXISTING UTILITY OCCUPATION TAX.X.THISIS ORDINAE CAN BE FOUND ON PAGE TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTY EIGHT OF YOUR PACKET.T. ANDND IT'S TE

[54:06] PROPOSAL THAT STAFF WOULD BE THE FIRST READING ORDINANCE WAS TO EXTEND THE TAX UNTIL THE YEAR TWENTY THIRTY THEREBY GIVING THE CITY APPROXIMATELY.. NININE ADDITIONAL YEARS TO HAVE FUNDS AVAILABLE FOR ALL PURPOSES I SEE A NEW PLEA TO BE ONE OF THE REVENUE SOURCES THAT THE CITY COULD USE.. U UP TO FIND PARTNERSHIP PROGRAMS.S. IF THE CITY ISS INCLINED OR TONSILS INCLINED TO PASS.S. EITHER OF THESE ORDINANCES THERE'S A COUPLE TYPE OR GRAPHICAL ERRORS THAT I WOULD RECOMMEND THAT WE CORRECT AND I CAN DO A SECOND MEETING.. BUT WE DO RECOMMEND THAT IF YOU DECIDE THAT THE CITY SHOULD MOVE FORWARD WITH THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AND THE FRANCHISE'S APPROVED BY VOTERS THE CITY.Y. ASKED VOTERS

[55:03] TO RE PURPOSE TO TAX AND IF THE COUNCIL FINDS APPROPRIATE TO EXTEND THE TAX TO TWENTY THIRTY TO FIND VARIOUS ACTIVITIES THAT I DESCRIBED EARLIER IN MY REMARKS..ALRIGHT SO THE SCHEDULE TONIGHT WE'RE HAVING A POETRY READING ON THE VARIOUS ORDINANCES RELATED TO ITS LOCATION FOR THE TAX MEASURES.S.WEWE ANTICIPATE THAT IF IF SECOND READING OCCURS THAT WILL BRING ALL THAT MATTERS BACK THE FIRST BUSINESS MEETING IN SEPTEMBER AND HAVE THE FINAL RELIEVE THEM OF COURSE.. ELECTION DAY IS NOVEMBER THIRTY S WHO VOTE ON ALL OF THE MEASURES THAT WOULD BE PLACED BEFORE THE VOTERS.S.AND THEN FIND FINALLY ASSUMED THAT THE FRANCHISE WILL PASS..

[56:04] THAT I IS THE COUNCIL WOULD DO THE FINAL WERE REALLY OF THE ORDINANCE CREATING A FRANCHISE THAT ARE DESCRIBED IN THE BEGINNING OF HIS COMMENTS AND THEREAFTER WOULD SUBMIT THE DOCUMENTS FOR APPROVAL.L.YOU SESEE EARLYLY SO THAT MY REMARKS THAT CONCLUDES OUR PRESENTATION ALICE JACKSON THE CEO OF COLORADO IS HERE AND HAS A GREAT PRESENTATION OF COUSE WE BRING THE PRESENTATION BUT JACKSON SAID.D.THTHEETHTHEE ALD THERE..OKOK THAT WAS ALL THEE THINKING MAN'S.S.

SOME BOULDERS MEAN ALL THE NEEDS OF CUSTOMERS LOCATED IN COLORADO.O.FIGURING OUT HOW WE WORK ON THAT LOCAL GENERATION A LITTLE BIT MORE HOW WE IMPROVE THE TECHNOLOGY THAT WE HAVE TO GET THERE.BOULDER CHANG'S NOBLE GOAL WITH TWENTY THIRTY..ANYWAY THAT WE CAN FIND CLOSE THE GAP WILL GET THEIR LAP AND CERTAINLY NOT ME.E.THE COLONIZATION THAT

[64:04] THANK YOU FOR TAKING TIME TO CONSIDER HOW WE CAN ACHIEVE A CLEAN ENERGY FUTURE COLLABORATIVE PLAY RECORDS THINK DATING A YEAR AND REBUILDING THAT TRUST..OKOK THE POSSIBILITY THAT WE CAN BRING TOGETHER OUR STATE AND POTENTIALLY EVEN ASHLEY FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT WE AREN'T REALLY STARS TOGETHER..THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR TAKING THAT KIND OF AGREEMENT.T.THANK YOU TO ALL THE RESULT INCLUDING NINETEEN EIGHTY THE APPOINTMENT OF CASS AND I TRULY LOOK WE'RE CREATING FULLY INTO THE BOULDER COMMUNITY FOR THE ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.. AND THAT CONCLUDES OUR PRESENTATION IN THE QUEUE FOR QUESTIONS COUNCIL AND STAFF FOR THAT GREAT PRESENTATION IT WAS REALLY WELL TOGETHER THE COMPREHENSIVE. AND I GUESS I WANT TO THANK THE STAFF TEAM IS GOING ON BEHIND US AND THE OTHER SIDE ARE ALL THESE DISCUSSIONS..THERE'S BEEN A

[65:02] LOT OF WORK AND THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF RESPONSIVENESS PLAYERS THAT WE SHOULD SIMILARLY REGARDLESS OF HOW THE OUTCOME IS.S.TONIGHT I AGREE WITH THE CELL THAT WE HAVE LEARNED ALOT ABOUT EACH OTHER AND WE SELL THE CONSIDERABLE RESOURCES TO. THE DISCUSSIONS WE HAD INCLUDING THEIR DISTRIBUTION PLANNING TEAM SO EVERYONE HAS BUT A LOT OF EFFORT INTO THIS.S.REGARDLESS THE OUTCOME SAY THAT THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF GOOD WORK ON BOTH SIDES AND IT SHOWS THE PRESENTATION EVERY NIGHT. SO I WOULD JUST BRING IT BACK TO COUNCIL AT THIS POINT FOR QUESTIONS.S.SOSI EXPECT THERE ARE QUESTIONS FOR BOTH STAFF AND OR SELL AND BARK COLOR IN THEIR YOUNG..MYMY ALLERGIES AND THATS ACTUALLY HAVE SEVERAL QUESTIONS..FIRST WAS FOR STEVE

[66:01] YOU GIVE US A LITTLE MORE DETAIL AS TO THE NATURE OF THE INNOVATIVE FINANCING TOOLS THAT YOU RECEIVED.. PEOPLE ARE TO SOME EXTENT WAITING ON THE EDGE OF THE CC IS SOMETHING MORE SUBSTANTIVE OR GAME CHANGING OWN PERCEIVED.. IMPACTS THE WAY IN WHICH WE REGARD OUR DIRECTION GOING FORWARD AND COMMENT ON A LITTLE BORED AND START MEMBER OF MY STUFF FROM MAP TO STOP THEM AND TALK ABOUT THE BIDS WE RECEIVED.D.ANAND DI THINK THAT'S IT..I HOPE NEXT YEAR AND HAS LITTLE PROBLEM THAT LOVED HIM EARLIER.R.HEHEYY

[67:14] HE'S NOT AN ANALYST FOROR THEHE MASS FIRST NAME ONLY AND GOING TO KNOW HIM AND PURSUE THE MATTER WITH ME FOR ONE MOMENT.T.THTHE WONDERS OF TECHNOLOGY THE FRUSTRATIONS THE LOAN.N.I'M ATT THE ENDND OF ENERGY SAYS THE CITY.Y.IT'S A A GOOD QUESTION WE'RE STILL WORKING THROUGH THE RESPONSES THERE WERE TWO PROPOSALS FOR FINANCING AND LOOKED AT ENGINEERING COSTS OF ITS ACQUISITION COSTS TO

[68:00] LOOK TO. THE CREATION OF THE UTILITY IS AS YOU QUESTION A HIGH LEVEL ON REALLY.Y.I'M TRYING TO GET A SENSE AS TO WHETHER OR NOT THERE'S SOMETHING TO PERCEIVE THAT LOOKS LIKE IT COULD CHANGE THE GAME A LITTLE BIT.. ANDND TAKE IT DOWN A DIFFERENT HAT.T. THE SUBJECT WHERE HE DISCUSSES WHETHER TO TERMINATE OUR LITIGATION AND RACHEL FRANKEL ATTENTION TO A FRANCHISE AGREEMENT AND I WOULD NOT WANT TO GO TOO FAR DOWN THAT PATH..THERE'S SOMETHING OUT OF THAT IS SO DRAMATICALLY IMPROVED OVER WHAT WE ARE GOING TO BE ENTERING INTO..WEWE HAVE TO LOK AT AND TRY TO GET T A SENSE WHAT NO ONE WASAS INNOVATIVE FINANCING MEAN WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE.. ANY IMPACT OR OUR

[69:06] RATES WHAT IMPACT HER ABILITY TO FINANCE.E. OURUR LITIGATION STILL DO THAT HOW TO IMPACT OUR ABILITY TO PAY A CONSERVATION WARDEN TO XL AND WE WENT IN THAT DIRECTION SO I JUMP IN HERE.E.LITTLE DIDID CERTAINLY PART OF THE CHALLENGES AND WHAT WE NEED TO DIG INTO TO UNDERSTAND THESE IS THERE IS THE OFFER FOR ABOUT A LEVEL OF FINANCING VIA FOREIGN ACQUISITION FOR OUTSTANDING UTILITY..THE QUESTION BECOMES IS WHAT IS THE COST OF ANYY OF THAT FINANCING THE CITY CERTAINLY HAS THE ABILITY TO ISSUE.. MUNICIPAL BONDS WHICH TYPICALLY ARE ALREADY MORE ATTRACTIVE INTEREST RATE AND INTEREST RATE IS CERTAINLY A SIGNIFICANT COMPONENT OF ANYTHING WE DO ON THE SYSTEM WHERE WE START TO THEIR.. CHALLENGE IS HOWOW WHAT

[70:06] HAPPENS IF WE HAVE SIGNIFICANT COSTS IN THAT BRIDGE BETWEEN WHERE WE ARE TODAY AND ACHIEVING MUNICIPAL DECISION.N.WHAT ARERE THOSE COS AND HOW WE DEFINE HER..ISIS THERE A BETTER PATH TO PURGING THOSE COSTS AND WHAT IS THE COST OF DOING THAT.. AND EVEN THOUGH THE WHOLE INTENDED TO ADDRESS THOSE COSTS AND HOW THEY MIGHT CONTRIBUTE TO DOING IT.T. ANDND THEY CERTAINLY OFFER FINANCING BUT ONE OF THE QUESTIONS WE HAVE TO ANSWER IS.S. HOW DO WEWE PAY THEM BACK IF WE'RE NOT SUCCESSFUL IN MOVING MUNICIPAL ASSOCIATION TO COMPLETION BUT YET WE HAVE COMMITTED TO AN ENTITY OF SOME COMMITMENT TO PAY BACK FINANCING.G.HOW DO W WE PY

[71:09] BACK THE FINANCING.G. ANDND THE ARE QUESTIONS WE NEED TO UNDERSTAND BECAUSE THERE'S CERTAINLY A COST AND IMPACT ON THE COMMUNITY IF WE CONTINUE TO ASK FOR ADDITIONAL TAXES AS COMPARED TO DOING IT..FUTURERE COMMITMENTSOK SAM WERE THERE AND ALTHOUGH I HAVE TO QUESTION FROM TOM I HAVE OTHER QUESTIONS BUT I WILL THEN GO TO THE BACK OF A LINE THAT'S ALRIGHT.T. ANDND FINISH OTHER QUESTIONS LATER SO AS NOT TO HOG THE VIRTUAL PODIUM.M.TOTOM AND A COUPLE QUESTIONS FOR YOU..WHATAT ARE THE CHANCES THAT ALL STORES WILL LIE IN THE LITIGATION TO GUEST WILL BE IN TWENTY TWENTY TWO.O. WERE CLOSER TO THAT AND MOST OF US AND GET A SENSESE OF WHAT KIND OF TIMELINE MIGHT LOOK.K. MORE FROM LITIGATION STANDPOINT THERE ARE SEVERAL VARIABLES WE HAVE AN APPLICATION FOR

[72:00] OUR ACTIONS YOU TEND TO PERK TO FORCE THIS IS THE SUBSTATION HAS BEEN PENDING FOR SOME TIME FOR CALLS OUR FAVOR..WE'R'RE ALL STORES ARE LYING THERE WITH JUSTICE OR DELAY THEY DO NOT LIE SO MUCH CONDEMNATION CASES CURRENTLY STAYED.D.WEWE HAVE AN APPEAL PENDING ON OR AUTHORITY OF THE COURT TO REQUIRE US TO GO TO THE PUC FOR THE SUBSTATION FOR THE SPORT AND THAT IS BEING DISCUSSED RIGHT NOW..THTHE COURT OF APPEALS RULES ON THAT HE WOULD THEN GO BACK TO CONDEMNATION.N.THERE ARE SEVERAL MOTIONS THAT HAD THE INITIAL CASE AND ATTORNEYS.. WERERE BALLS WOULD HAVE TO COME OUT RIGHT SO AS NOT TO MISS IS A LAWYER I ALWAYS BELIEVE WE'RE GOING TO WIN BUT IF YOU KNOW IF THE DELEGATION DON'T ALWAYS DO THAT.T.SOSO FROM M A LITIGATION STANDPOINT THERE ARE CHALLENGES.S.THE QUESTION IS

[73:03] WITH RESPECT TO THE DRAFT SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AND LOOKS TO BE LIKE A REVISED THEM ON TO THAT.T. PARAGRAPH DOES NOT CONTAIN THE JUDICIAL ELECTIONS IN WHICH EXXON HAS AGREED NOT TO PARTICIPATE BUT THERE IS LANGUAGE IN THAT SECTION THAT HAS BEEN STRICKEN THAT TO ME IS IMPORTANT.. I IFF FIASCO IS THE ONLY ENTITY MAKING A REPRESENTATION ABOUT NON INTERFERENCE IN THE ELECTION WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF.F. THE PARENT COMPANY DETERMINED TO DO SO OR THE MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE PARENT COMPANY OR AN AFFILIATE OR.R. SUBSIDIARY OF PS SCOPE OR ITS DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.S. WITH THOSE

[74:04] ILLEGAL CONTRIBUTIONS AND IF SO WHY DID WE DROP THAT LANGUAGE THAT WAS ATTEMPTING TO ADDRESS THAT ISSUE IS A GREAT QUESTION FOR FIRST GOAL. IN THE PARAGRAPH IS IN THE PACK OF TWENTY AND TWENTY ELECTIONS.I GOT A LIGHT WHICH IN ADDITION TO ADDITIONAL WATCH OUT..SOSO THEY'RE DOWN THREE ELECTIONS THAT THEY WOULD.. AGREE TO THE LAKAKE FOR A COUPLE REASONS ONE IS.S. AN INDIVIDUAL MEMBER BOARD REPRESENTING A CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTION AS THE FIRST NUMBER I DON'T KNOW THE CITY HAS THE ABILITY TO SAY TO REACH AND OFFICERS WERE RECORDS..IFIF THE COMPANY TO GIVE THAT PERSON THE MONEY TO DO IT THAT WE REPORT A CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTION OR.R. SOMETHING COMING FROM ANY INDIVIDUAL PERSONAL ASSETS IS NOT SOMETHING I BELIEVE THAT WE CAN RESTRICT WHAT.T. YOU SAY

[75:01] WE CAN RESPECT YOU CAN DO ANYTHING BY AGREEMENT THE PARTIES WAS TO DO ALL THE OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS ARE NOT PARTISANS AGREEMENT THE COMPANY.. S SO II WILL HAVE TO GET AGREEMENTS WITH THOSE FOLKS NOT EXERCISE THE FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS AND I'M A LITTLE BIT.T. MORE SO THAT THE COMPANY CAN'T USESE OTHERS TO DO WHAT IT WANTS IN TERMS OF ELECTIONS TO BE LEGAL CONTRIBUTION.N. WHAT PEOPLE DO WITH THEIR LENSES IN MY VIEW WAS SO BROAD THAT EMPLOYEES WHEN IT IS FOR MAKING CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS AND THAT'S REALLY TROUBLES.S.I KNOW WAS DRAFTED AS WELL AS THAT WAS THE EXACT INTENTION OF THE LANGUAGE..I WANT TO HAVE A CONVERSATION TIMELINE AS TO WHAT IS OR IS NOT PERMITTED I WANT TO BE CLEAR THAT.T. EXXON CAN EXERCISE ITS FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS TO ARTICLES OUT OF TOWN FORMS LETTERS TO THE EDITOR THEY GET ON A STREET CORNER AND SPEECH ISSUES..I DON'T WANT

[76:04] THEIR MONEY INVOLVED IN THIS ELECTION AND YOU'RE RESPONSIBLE AND TAKE IT OUT WITH ALICE..MYMY NEXT ROUND QUESTION MARK IN JAMAAT AND THAT'S WE'VE GOT MARY AND RACHEL BERRY..I'M JUST SOO I I HAVE SOME QUESTIONS FOR ALICE JACKSON AND THANKS FOR BEING HERE TONIGHT.T.MY FIRST QUESTION IS WHY SHOULD WE TRUST YOU..ANAND ASIDE FROM THE SET SO EITHER SIDE AND SAY THAT'S MY FIRST QUESTION AND MY SECOND QUESTION FOR YOU IS WHY DOES EXCEL CARE ENOUGH TO HAVE PARTICIPATED IN THIS..

[77:02] SETTLEMENT THE SETTLEMENT DISCUSSIONS AND I HOW WILL YOUR SHAREHOLDERS BENEFIT FROM THIS SETTLEMENT.T.THANK YOU VERY MUCH A QUESTION COUNT THE ONE I GO OUT TO CONTAIN WATER TO THIN OUT THERE.. THAHAT H HE ACTUALLY RECOGNIZED HER AND I THINK YOU BUILD OVER TIME AND WHAT WE'RE WORKING VERY HARD TO DO WITH THE ENERGY PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT WITH LAKE AVENUE. AND THE BELLS AND CANDY ARE BOTH DIRECTION AS BETWEEN A COMPANY AND THE CITY OF BOULDER.R.I BELIEVE THERE ARE MANY THINGS THAT WE CAN DO HERE ARE GOING TO THE LIVE TRAPPING POTENTIAL FOR THE FUTURE AND CONTINUE TO BUILD UPON IN.. THE FIRST TRUST THAT SIMPLY WE CAME TO THE TABLE.. WE'RE SITTING HERE WORK VERY HARD BUT WHAT A DIFFERENT PART OF OUR COMPANY AND HOW THE CONVERSATION TO REACH THE AGREEMENT.. THE

[78:03] AGREEMENT A LOT OF THE LANGUAGE THAT AG HOLDER'S CALL.L. OUT WHAT OUR CURRENT THINGS CAN DO SOMETHING NO MATTER HOW WE ABLE TO ACHIEVE THEIR GOAL THE SAME TIME TRYING TO ADDRESS ENERGY PARTICLES.. THAT IS WHYHY WE AE CAREFUL ON HOW WE ARE COMMITTED AND WE'RE GOING TO HELP EVERYTHING WE CAN DO TO MAKE THIS WORK.K.THE SECOND THING WHY DO WE CARE A LOT OF DIFFERENT ANSWERS.S.II DOUBT THAT THE ONE THE ONE TO COME TO MIND FIRST..THTHE FACT THAT ABOUT RELATIONSHIPS IN THIS STATE WE HAVE TEN YEARS ARGUING ABOUT WHETHER I WOULD TRY.. TO DEALAL WITH THAT TITLE BUT WE DIDN'T ACCOMPLISH DURING THE TEN YEARS MUST BE FIGURING OUT HOW TO REDUCE CARBON IN NATURE THAT OUR CUSTOMERS WE WERE ABLE TO IMPLEMENT MORE TECHNOLOGY..WHY WOULD WE CARE BECAUSE THEY THINK THERE'S GREAT POTENTIAL NOT ONLY IN. A STUDY OF COLOR TO REALLY MAKE THE A AND I HAD A COUPLE CONVERSATIONS WITH YOU ALL ABOUT WHAT I BELIEVE ANY AGREEMENT..I'M

[79:12] PARTICULARLY EXCITED ABOUT THE ELECTRIC VEHICLE KEYS OF THE HIGHEST DEDUCTIBLE AFTER ALL WE WANT TO SEE THAT TRANSITION.N. NEWS BECAUSE THEY DRY OUT THE CAR THE TRANSPORTATION SECTOR MAKE IT HARDER ON A MISSION THAT THE MORE WILLING TO WORK ON THE GROUND MAKE IT BETTER.R.ALALL OF OUR EIGHT BY ALL THE COLORADO SO WE CARERE ABOUT REALLY ABOUT BUILDING COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE BOARD REDUCTIONS THAT WE ARE ALL FOCUSED ON THE CERTAINLY NOT THE SHAREHOLDERS.S.II FIND ITIR NOT WHAT I WOULD TAKE MR. PERSPECTIVE THAT HE COULD BE YOU KNOW IN THE DISCUSSIONS WE HAVE PUBLICLY ON THE ROLLERS I.. WILL CHANGE NOW THAT WE'RE IN NEGOTIATIONS AND EVEN AN AFTERTHOUGHT I ADDED PERSPECTIVE.. WITH H A

[80:03] PLEASURABLE ACTIVITY THAT THEY KNOW FROM THE PERSPECTIVE WE ARE STRONG LIKE OKAY REDUCTION.. IS ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF WHERE WE'RE ENGAGING OUR COMMUNITY TO DRIVE EVERY ACTION OR ANY OF THE COMMUNITY CAP RELATIONS FIRM FORM.. FUNCTION AND WHAT WE'RE DOING HERE SHOW THE RELATIONSHIP HE ADDED WE ARE COMMITTED TO LISTENING TO OUR COMMUNITY AND BUILDING A FUTURE THAT REALLY DOES A BETTER OUTCOME FOR EVERYONE AROUND US.S.II HAE AND IF F I MAY Y II HAVAVE A AE QUESTIONS FOR STAFF..MYMY FIRST QUESTION IS HOW DOES YOU KNOW LAST SUMMER WE RECEIVED A PRESENTATION FROM STAFF IN THAT PRESENTATION.. ONENE OF TE

[81:01] THINGS THAT WAS SHARED WITH COUNCIL WAS THAT.T. WHAT OUR GOALS GOING FORWARD SHOULD BE AND I BELIEVE THIS WAS BASED ON IPCC RECOMMENDATIONS GOING FORWARD THAT WHATEVER WE DO. SHOULD HE BROADLY CHANGING SYSTEMS AND IT SHOULD BE REPUTABLE AND SCALABLE SO MY QUESTION IS HOW DOES A MUNICIPAL UTILITY COMPARE AGAINST THIS AGREEMENT WITH THOSE GOALS.. YOU WANT TO TAKE THAT NASTY JAM OF THEM TO SOFTEN THE MALL CLOSED WITH THE RESPONSE AROUND MOSTLY TO LOOK LIKE A GREAT MANY THINGS FOR THE QUESTION AND JUST FOR ORIENTATION..WHAT YOU'RE REFERRING TO WAS A PRESENTATION WE GAVE BACK IN JULY OF LAST YEAR THAT WAS REALLY A RE CALIBRATION OF OUR CLIMATE WORK.K. TO TALK ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF HOW INDIVIDUAL BEHAVIOR CHANGE RESULTS IN COLLECTIVE ACTION AND HOW WE CAN MAKE THE BIGGEST IMPACT AS WE SHIP SYSTEMS.. PARTICULARLY ON THE

[82:07] ENERGY SIDE I THINK THIS IS ONE OF THE VERY INTERESTING CONVERSATIONS EMERGE FOR THE PAST DECADE AS CAUSATION REALLY WAS AT ITS CORE AN ATTEMPT TO CHANGE THE SYSTEM.M. SO HOW MIGHT BE ABLE TO CREATE OUR OWN UTILITY AND DO WHAT WE WANTED TO DO WITHIN.N. THEHE CONVERSATION HAS SHIFTED A BIT AS WE START THINKING ABOUT WHAT WE CAN DO AROUND REPLICATING WHAT WE.. DESIGNED HERE THROUGH PARTNERSHIP AND SO I THINK WHAT WE'LL NEED TO PAY VERY CLOSE ATTENTION TO IS.S. THAT THE PROJECTS AN OPTIONS THAT WERE DISCUSSED DURING A PRESENTATION BY STEVE IN PARTICULAR HOW WE CAN IDENTIFY PROJECTS THAT COULD BE SCALED IT COULD BE REPLICATED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS..SOSO WHAT WE'VE LEARNED ALONG THE WAY IS THAT YEAH PERHAPS OR OTHER COMMUNITIES WILL FOLLOW OUR PATHWAY IN TERMS OF TRYING TO CREATE ITS OWN UTILITY..BUBUT THERE'S THIS KIND OF STRIKING A BALANCE IS TO SAY IF WE REALLY KNEW SHOW SYSTEMS.S.IT'S

[83:03] NOT JUST IN TERMSS OF ELECTRICITY THAT WE ARE GETTING FROM UTILITY PROVIDER BUT HOW ARE WE CREATING NEW OPPORTUNITIES AT THE LOCAL LEVEL HOW WE TRIED AN INNOVATION.N.HOW ARE WEWE INTEGRATING RESILIENCE IN EQUITY INTO OUR APPROACHES SO THAT IS GOING TO CONTINUE TO BE.E. I INN REALLY FRONT AND CENTER IN OUR CLIMATE WORK.K. AND SO AS WE START TO EXPAND IT WITH ITS PARTNERSHIP WITH EXCEL THAT WE NEED TO FOCUS ON THOSE PROJECTS TO EXPAND THOSE OPPORTUNITIES THROUGH MUNICIPAL ELECTRIC UTILITY.WE KNOW WHAT WE CAN DO WE KNOW WHAT THE AUTHORITIES GRANT US.S.I OWN AN OPERATING SYSTEM. SO I THINK THERE ARE COMPLEMENTARY PATHS BUT THEY TAKE DIFFERENT FLAVORS AND I DON'T KNOW THAT ANSWERS YOUR QUESTION DIRECTLY BUT STEVE IS GOING TO MOP UP.P. AND TALK ABOUT HOW IT LOOKS WITH THE UTILITY THERE JUST ARE NOT PHONE HER VERY WELL..OHOH YES

[84:07] WE'VE ALL DISCUSSED IN THE HALF THE COST OF MUNICIPAL DECISION OFFERS LOCAL CONTROL IN A LOCAL CHOICES OF WHAT WE DO WITH THE SYSTEM.M.ONONE OF E ELEMENTS OF OUR PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT IS INJECTING THE VOICE OF THE BOULDER COMMUNITY INTO WHAT WILL BE DONE ON THE ELECTRIC GRID AND WHAT.T. WHYHY HOW WE WILLLL SEE BELOW HOW WE CAN DO INNOVATIVE THINGS THAT REALLY PROVIDE EXAMPLES AND HOPEFULLY SOME PATHWAYS FOR OTHER COMMUNITIES TO CALL.L. BOULDER HAS ALWAYS PUT ITSELF ABOVE AND AS LEADER AND I DO THINK THERE IS OPPORTUNITY TO CONTINUE TO PROVIDE THAT LEADERSHIP THROUGH EXAMPLE AND THROUGH INNOVATION.N.SOSO WHILE IT ISIS THEHE CERTAINLY T

[85:00] AS SIMPLE AS TWO TERM CITY COUNCIL..ANAND ASK FOR PERMISSION TO DO SOMETHING NOW WE HAVE MORE FOLKS WILL BE ENGAGED IN THE AUTHORIZATION MOVE FORWARD TRYING TO DO. IF WE ARE SUCCESSFUL IN DEVELOPING A STRONG PARTNERSHIP AND A STRONG RELATIONSHIP..I THINK WE CANAN ALSO STEAM AND HAVE JUST ONE MORE QUESTION IF YOU'LL INDULGE ME I WONDER THERE ARE THINGS IN THE PRESENTATION.N. WITH RESPECT TO MEETING THE CEO TO YOU HE TARGETS WAS T TOO ELECT OR FAE BUILDINGS AND TRANSPORTATION.N. SOSO AGAININ LAST SUMMER WE WERE PRESENTED WITH AN ESTIMATE.E.

[86:05] OF WHAT IT MIGHT TAKE TWO ELECTRIFYING OR BUILDINGS.. SO THAT WOULD BE COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS AND ALSO RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS AND ON THE ESTIMATE THEN WAS SOMEWHERE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF BETWEEN SIX HUNDRED MILLION AND ONE BILLION.. HIMIM AND I THINK THIS IS FOROR BOTH QUESTION BOTH FOR STAFFING AND FOUR XL THE COST SHARING SLIDE DID NOT INCLUDE ANYTHING ON BUILDING ELECTRIFICATION SOUL AND HOW WOULD WE ACHIEVE THAT'S WHO.O. THE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT VERSUS HOW WOULD WE ACHIEVE THE ELECTRIFICATION OF BUILDINGS BOTH COMMERCIAL AND RESIDENTIAL TO THIS POSITION THE TROUGH OF THE CHALLENGES OF COURSE IS THE COST OF MAKING A CHANGE.E.ITITS

[87:18] NECESSARY TO CHANGE OR WE RECOGNIZE THAT WHAT WE TALKED ABOUT LAST JULY WAS PURSUING PARTNERSHIPS OUTSIDE THE CITY.Y. ANDND REALLY TRYING TO ESTABLISH BUSINESS MODELS WHERE THERE IS IT'S AN ATTRACTIVE CHANGE TO IMPLEMENT INTO RESIDENTIAL COLONY INTO A RESIDENCE..SOSO IT'S AN OPPORTUNITY AND AT THE TIME WE WERE TALKING TO THE COMPANY ABOUT A PARTNERSHIP..IT'S A AN OPPORTUNITY FOR SOMEBODY TO ESTABLISH A BUSINESS MODEL TO MOVE FORWARD..WE ALSO IN THE PARTNERSHIP AGREED TO PURSUE GRANTS AND OTHER FUNDING RESOURCES AS POSSIBLE.E. BUTUTS

[88:01] WE LOOK AT THE FUTURE WHAT WE DO INSURANCE AND WE'RE DESIGNING PROGRAMS THAT BENEFIT THE HOMEOWNER.. TO THE POINT THAT THE HOMEOWNER IS ALSO WILLING TO SHARE THE COST OF IMPROVING THEIR HOME AND THEIR BENEFICIARY..SOSO IT IS CERTAINLY A BIG CHALLENGE OF THE COST BUT THAT'S PART OF THE INNOVATION WE WANT TO TACKLE.E. S SO JUST TO FOLLOW FOLLOW QUESTION HAVE ANY OF THE SURROUNDING MUNICIPAL UTILITIES FIGURED THAT NOW.W. THAT I'M AWARE OF I KNOW THE PLATTE RIVER HAS INSTITUTED A PROGRAM THROUGH ITS COLONIES CALLED EFFICIENCY WORKS.. ANDND

[89:00] THEY HAVE INTRODUCED SOME ASPECTS OF THAT UTILITY AS A SERVICE MODEL ORDERED THE UTILITY IS REALLY PARTICIPATING MORE AND HELPING THE HOMEOWNER AND SHE IS THE REPLACEMENT OF APPLIANCES AND MOVING THAT DIRECTION.I'M NOT SURE WHAT THE UPTAKE IS SORE.E.HOHOW SUCCESSFUL THE PROGRAM IS IN ALL ASKED ALICE TO STOP HIM BECAUSE I DO UNDERSTAND EXCEL ALSO HAS A PROGRAM VERY SIMILAR TO EFFICIENCY WORKS A PLAYER.R. AND W WE DIDD THE EVT OF CHRIST AND YET THERE ARE A NUMBER OF PLAY AT OUR PARTY ENGAGED.. ONENE OF THE EXAMPLES I CAN GIVE YOU A CLEAN OUT THE BALLOT ELECTRIFICATION OF TRANSPORTATION.. THAT WE HAVE APPROACHED THE COMMISSION WITH RECOMMENDATIONS ON HOW TO PROVIDE REBATES FOR HOMEOWNERS TO BE ABLE TO INSTALL THEIR CHARTERS AND TO CHARGE THE RIGHT TIME..TODADAY NAMELY AT NIGHT IS NOT AN INCREMENTAL BURDEN ON THEM AND ACTUALLY PROVIDE REBATES FOR CUSTOMERS TO DO.O. AND YOU KNOW ONE OF THE COURT AND IN

[90:00] THAT PARTICULAR THING IS WE RECOGNIZE THAT WE NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT THE ACT THAT FOR A VARIETY OF LOCAL.L. TRANSPORTATION ELECTRIFICATION OVER FIFTEEN PERCENT OF THE DOLLAR THAT WE'RE PROPOSING TO EITHER USE REBATES ARE SPENDING THAT THEY COOK ON LOW INCOME..II REALLY GET HELP WITH THE EQUITY CONVERSATION IN REGARDS TO THAT BUT IT CRACKED..WEWE HAVAVE OTHER ACTIVITY WE ENGAGE OUR COMMUNITY OUR CUSTOMERS ON THE DEMAND.D. FOR ENERGY EFFICIENT THEY OUR WEEK A REBATE FOR THEM TO USE MORE EFFICIENT BY TWO OUT BUT AN ELECTRIC.C. WATER HEATERS OR HEATING DEVICES IN THEIR HOMES BIRTH TO AGE ONE.. THOUGH THEY ARE CURRENTLY AVAILABLE ON AND WE ARE LOOKING FOR INTERESTING THINGS TO WORK I KNOW I KNOW.W. A LOT TO TALK ABOUT COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT LOOKING AT HOW THOSE WORK AND WRITING PROGRAMS AND REBATES AROUND THE IMPORTANCE IN THE COMING YEARS..DURING A A TRANSITION

[91:16] FROM OUR BUILDING ELECTRIFICATION.. OF CARS THE VIEWER AND RACHEL AND THANK YOU.. S SO MY FIRST QUESTION IS WAS PLEASED TO SEE IN THE SETTLEMENT DOCUMENT REVISIONS FROM THE AGREEMENT PROVISIONS THE INCLUSION OF BROADBAND ON THE POLLS.. BUT THAT'S IN THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AND NOT IN THE FRANCHISE AGREEMENT AND SO DOES FROM A FRANCHISE AGREEMENT STILL.. LISTS USES THAT DOESN'T INCLUDE BROADBAND SO MY QUESTION I GUESS MAYBE A LEGAL ONE IS THAT A PROBLEM LIKE IF WE TRY TO ASSERT HER ABILITY TO RUB IN UNTIL THE POLLS.S.IT'S'S GOD THE FRANCHISE AGREEMENT WITH THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT SO IF WALKING TROUBLE I WOULD USE THE INTERNET USE THAT

[92:00] WORD EVER REALLY.Y.YEYESS I I S THERE I WOULD SAY SUCK.K. THEHE SOUL HAS FRANCHISES WITH MOST OF THE CITIES AND STATES COLORADO AND THEY TRY TO KEEP THE FRANCHISE YOU KNOW AS WE WENT THROUGH RELATIVELY DRY NEGOTIATE WITH XL.. B BE PUT IN THE WALLS TO THE ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS THAT THE CITY WAS GETTING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT INTO THE CELLAR AND THERE ARE SOME THINGS THAT WERE SO IMPORTANT..THE OPT OUT PROVISION IS THAT THEY HAD TO BE IN THE FRANCHISE AGREE THE WHOLE ATTACHMENT OR.. A A SOMETIMES CONTROVERSIAL ISSUE A GIVING THIS TO BE THE RIGHT TO USE IT FOR ME AS RATHER IT WAS A GOOD BUY THEM SO WE PUT IN A SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT..I KNOW IT'S MY OPINION IS THAT IT IS ENFORCEABLE..OKOK THANKS

[93:06] FOR THAT NEXT IS ABOUT TIMING OF THE OPT OUTS SO I WAS ALSO PLEASED TO SEE THE ADDITIONAL TIME ON THE HOT TOUTS.S. THE QUESTION I HAVE IS AROUND HOW THAT TIME IN MY SIXTEEN MONTH PERIOD THAT BABIES STARTED. TO CLOSE TO ELECTION TO BE ABLE TO BE READY FOR THAT ELECTION BUT ENDED PRIOR TO THE NEXT YEAR'S ELECTION.N.SOO DO WE HAVE TO HAVE ANY KNOWLEDGE OF HOW THE TIMING WOULD WORK OUT OF THE SIX MONTHS WITH REGARDS TO THE CHANCE TO HOLD NOVEMBER ELECTIONS..WELLLL T TOO SIXTY MONTHS IN PART BECAUSE MORE THAN A YEAR OR.R. S SO MILES MY CHANGE I THINK INCORRECTLY THAT THE CLIMATE WHERE TO PUT OUT OF THE EARTHWORM CHURCH SO WE WOULD HAVE BET.. THAT IT WAS THE ENDND OF THE DAYAY YOU WOULD HAVE SIXTEEN MONTHS TO

[94:00] ACT ON IT WHICH WE WHO WELL INTO THE NEXT YEAR SO.. H HEE COULD BE AS EARLY AS.S. AUGUST WE GOT THE DATA STILL HAVE THE TIME TO GET TO THE NOVEMBER ELECTION IN FACT YOU.. HAVE TO OPT OUT PROVISION FOR IDEAS SIXTEEN MONTHS WAS CHOSEN TO GIVE US THAT COVERAGE OF OVER TWO DIFFERENT ELECTIONS DURING PERIOD.D. SO IF THE REPORTS ARE COMING OUT IN THE THIRD FOURTH QUARTER AND THE TIMING ALL WORKS OUT WELL BUT IF THEY CAME OUT IN.N. APRIL OR SOMETHING IT MIGHT NOT SO MUCH DESERTED.. BECAUSE YOU WOULDN'T ACTUALLY OR MAYBE MAY AND WOULD ACTUALLY MAKE IT TO THE NEXT ELECTION WE STILL HAVE THE TOOLS THAT WHEN AUGUST OR SEPTEMBER TO SOMETHING ON THE BALLOT.. IN THE HOUSE FOR MOM'S.. DAY AIRIR BAND SESSIONS AND I WAS THINKING ABOUT ESPECIALLY BECAUSE THE SIX TEAMS ALSO APPLIES TO THE COMMUNITY LED

[95:00] PETITION RATE I WAS TRYING TO VISUALIZE LET'S SAY IT'S.S. ENDEMIC IN YOU KNOW THINGS DON'T GO AWAY AND SO THEN YOU FEEL LIKE YOU'VE GOT TWO YEARS ARE REALLY GOING AT THE FIRST YEAR BECAUSE.. THE SIXTEEN MONTHS WELL BEFORE NOVEMBER THE SECOND YEAR AT THIS RATE SO I WAS CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAME THING LIKE IS THAT.T. ENOUGH TIME TO FACE KIND OF TOO LATE IN SEASON OR SOMETHING GOES WONKY IN THE SEASON IN.N. APRIL THAT YOU GET THE SIGNATURES IN TIME IT DOESN'T WORK OUT OR YOU THINK MAYBE COUNCIL'S GOING TO PUT IT ON AND DOESN'T PUT ON SO THE COMMUNITY DOESN'T TRY FOR PETITION.N.MAYBE NEXT YEARRAA N IS AN AWESOME.. SISTER RACHEL AND I GUESS THE QUESTION IS NO PRACTICAL WHEN COULD WE WOULD BE POSSIBLE TO MAYBE WORDED SLIGHTLY DIFFERENTLY SUCH THAT TO SAY THAT.T. IF THE SIXTEEN MONTH PERIOD DID NOT INCLUDE TWO NOVEMBER ELECTIONS THAT WOULD BE LIKE THEM UNTIL THE SECOND.D.WEWE HE

[96:07] TO TALK TO EXCEL SO OVER THE LIST OF GAS FOR AL OF US..YOYOU HEAR JUST PUT ON THE SPOT TO SEE AN ISSUE WITH SOME.E. IF YOU NEED MORE TIME.E. T TO ANSR THE QUESTION AND I THINK YOU KNOW AS. I HAD SOMETHING I FOUND IT A GREAT JOB WE WERE WORKING THROUGH THE WINDING OUT THE BRAIN THAT IT IS DUE TO DIFFERENT THAT I WAS.. IN MY EYEYE THAT CONCLUSION WHEN WE WERE LOOKING AT THE GOAL IS REALLY OKAY YOU CAN'T GET.T. OUT THE FIRST YEAR BUT YOU DEFINITELY NEED TO FIND THE ATTACK AND I HAVE IN THAT MAYBE PUTTING A MUG ON THERE..

[97:06] THAT WE NEED KNOW THAT IN ORDER TO CHANGE WHENEVER I THINK THAT WE FEEL THAT MID DECEMBER TIMEFRAME THAT MATTER WHY. THE MEDIA PUTTING MUD ON THEIR ENDING WHERE A TALENTED OR NOT I MAY BE YOU.U. II DRAFTED THAT ININ MID DECEMBR AND EIGHTY ONE YEAR FOLLOWING A KIND OF NEGATIVE TWENTY TWENTY TWO TWENTY THREE PEOPLE MADE DECEMBER TWENTY FOUR I ACCOMPANY MY EYE AND I.. THINK ALICECE S SOO MAYBE E CAN COME BACK TO THIS AND IN DISCUSSION BUT IF WE DO WITH THIS FORWARD TO ME WE TAKE AN APPROACH LIKE THAT.T. TO MAKE SURE THAT THERE WOULD BE TIED WITH ADEQUATE TIME TO PREPARE FOR AN ELECTION.N. AND THEN A A

[98:05] FEW MINOR QUESTIONS HAVE ALREADY BEEN ANSWERED SO I JUST HAVE ONE LEFT.T. A A LOTOT OF THE COMMUNITY THAT WE'VE BEEN GETTING HAS BEEN AROUND THE FEASIBILITY BE UPSET.. BECAUSE I THINK THE NEGOTIATION OF THE ADDITIONAL OPT OUTS OF THIS HAS BEEN A BIG FEATURE OF THE AGREEMENT.T. BUT NUMBERS THAT YOU'RE NOT SURE THAT THAT ACTUALLY WORK ON AND SO WE GOT THE TUBE IF WE HAPPEN TO TAKE TO TRY TO TAKE THOSE OUTS WHICH IS GREAT..CACAN YOU HEAR ME MY DOS MY INTERNET CONNECTION IS THE WRITTEN LAW..HOHOW MUCH I CAN O ABOUT IT SO BUT.. I IF YOU DIDN'T UNDERSTAND DON'T UNDERSTAND MY QUESTION BUT ALICE WOULD WOULD EXCEL BE WILLING TO SAY CAN USE A FORM FOR THE CORPORATION THAT.T. OWNED THAT YOU WOULD LITIGATE

[99:00] OUR ATTEMPTS TO TAKE AN OPT OUT THAT YOU MIGHT.. SPEAK OUT AGAINST IT USING YOUR RIGHTS FREE SPEECH BUT THAT YOU WOULD NOT SUE TO STOP US IF WE ATTEMPTED TO TAKE THE OPT OUTS IN THE ROOM AND HAVE.E. OUR SWEET AND DEAR DIARY I I KNEW THAT MY PAPA CAN I SAY THAT I I DON'T BELIEVE THAT IN THE LANGUAGE OF THE LEGAL QUESTION I'M NOT AN ATTORNEY.Y. II DON'T BELIEVE THAT WE HAVE AN AVENUE TO TIE IN THE EVENT THAT YOU HAVE A COP OUT.SO I CARRIED YOU..I DON'T HAVE MY ATTORNEY ON HERE THOUGH I HATED NOT HAVING YOU THERE OR HEARD..II DON'T I IFF I I BUY O TOM IF HE AGREES WITH THAT SOON BECAUSE THOSE THINGS THAT YOU COULD SEE LUKE IS WHETHER OR NOT WE ACTUALLY MET THE GOALS..SOSO THERE'S A

[100:01] SPECIAL QUESTIONNAIRE AND I DON'T KNOW THE PROBLEM THE RIGHT TO CHALLENGE.. GOALS IN A CITY A PROVISION THAT SAYS WE HAVE TO GIVE NINETY DAYS' NOTICE TO ASSERT THAT THEY.Y. MAKE A GESTURE OF THOSE NINETY DAYS SO I THINK THE RESULT IS THE ONLY URGENCY IN THE THE UM FIVE FIFTEEN YEAR OPT OUTS ARE ABSOLUTELY I THINK.. THERE'S ANY BASIS TO ASSUME THERE COULD BE THIS LITIGATION OVER WHETHER OR NOT GOALS IN THAT UM I DON'T KNOW THAT WE CAN RESOLVE BECAUSE THE RIGHT TO.O. R REE D IT I DON'T SEE ANY.Y. WAY T TO SOO BAD IT'S JUST WHAT I THINK MIGHT BE COMFORTING FOR THE COMMUNITY ALICE FUEL WERE ABLE TO SAY NO WE WOULDN'T TRY TO SEE YOU.U. EVEN THOUGH THERE'S NO AVENUE TO THAT WE CAN SEE BUT BE COMFORTING TO HEAR THAT FROM YOU YET THAT I'VE BEEN ON THE FARMS THING THAT THEY'RE PLANNING.G. T TO I

[101:01] THINK BACK TO HOW POINT IS WHY WE'RE ALL IN AGREEMENT ON THE GOLD ARE REPORTED AND VERIFIED ON THE NATURE DOESN'T HAPPEN RIGHT..I THINK THAT THE BIGGEST QUESTION IS THAT THE AUTHOR WITH A GOLD ARE VERIFIED BY THE CLIMATE REGISTRY.Y. ANDND THE TRIGGER S NOT ACTIVATED TO GET THAT BOOK BY RAY MUMBLED I.. LOVE REAL LOVE WAS SAID THAT.T. H HE SHOULD JUST BE A NUMBER OF RESTAURANTS IN THE COMMENT I'D OVERLOOKED INQUIRY JUST REPORTS.. I IT WOULD SEEM I ITF THE NUMBER OF WHAT WE'VE AGREED ON WHAT THE NUMBER IS.S. WORTHLESS AND SHOULD BE MUCH BASIS FOR THE WONDER CHILD COME IN JUST A LITTLE ABOUT WHAT HE'S SEEN THOSE REPORTS.S. LAST YEAR THANKS TOM AND I YEAH I CAN ALSO.O. ASK US TO

[102:01] TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT HOW THE CITY THE REPORTING STRUCTURE BUT YOU'RE RIGHT IT IS A NUMBER.R. AGAININ THATT TE PROCESS IS TO SUBMIT YOUR DATA AND THEN IT ACTUALLY GETS VERIFIED BY A THIRD PARTY BEFORE THE FINAL NUMBERS ARE PUBLISHED AND SO.O. I THINK YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT WE BE LOOKING AT A NUMBER.R. S SO IT'S S A STRICT QUANTITATIVE EXERCISE WITHOUT LEGAL LEEWAY IN OTHER WORDS.S. NOT EVER SAY THAT THEY COULD NEVER BE LITIGATION BUT WE ARE IN ADDITION IMAGINE YOU ARE FIVE OR ONE OF US.. WHAT IT SAYS SO WEWE W WEE WE'VE MAE EFFORTS WHEN WE DRAFTED THOSE PROVISIONS TO TRY TO MAKE THEM AS SIMPLE AND STRAIGHTFORWARD AS POSSIBLE.E. WHICH DOES SEEM FAIRLY AMBIGUOUS TO ME I'M JUST EXPRESSING SOME KEY CONCERNS FOR THAT APPRECIATE THE TIME

[103:00] ON THE TOP.. AND THEN WAS THAT RACHEL IN JUNE TO FACE THE PRESENTATIONS ON OTHERS AND LASTLY LIKE THERE'S THERE'S ALWAYS ROOM FOR LITIGATION LIKE I COULD COME UP WITH.H. SOME AREAS I WANT TO SCARE EVERYBODY WITH IT YET I THINK IT'S EVER ANYBODY'S GOING TO LAW SCHOOL AND ITS RELATED CASES LIKE.E. YEAH THERE'S THERE'S NO WAY TO SAY THE LOSS IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO MISS ALL THE SESSIONS ARE ALSO ANSWERS I CAN TO GO THROUGH.. WHAT I THINK IS THEHE CONTINUING OFF OF A QUESTION THAT MARK WALLER CAST WHICH WAS ABOUT THE RF KEYS WERE NOT GOING TO HAVE THAT INFORMATION TONIGHT..WELL THE VOTE IF IF WE PUT THIS ON ABOUT ALL THE VOTERS OF THE BENEFIT OF THAT INFORMATION TIMELY TO HELP INFORM HOW THE VOTE ABSURDLY ARTICLE.E. AND SAYS IS THERE ANYTHING ON AND

[104:00] DATE THAT'S GOING TO BE RELEASED OR THE SCHEDULE FROM THE BIZARRE HOW WE USE THE GYM..OUR INTERVIEWS FEATURES HERE ARE A COUPLE WEEKS AGO THROUGH.. THOSE INTERVIEWS QUESTIONS ANSWERED AND DURING THAT PROCESS WILL CONTINUE OUR ANALYSIS HAS BEEN A DANCER SO I DON'T HAVE A DATE CERTAIN.. I WOULDN'T A STATE BY SEPTEMBER WE WILL HAVE TO MENTION THAT.T. IF F AA I IF WE AT NOW HAS TOO GO TO A AT LEAST AT FIRSTST THAT.T. MARKS QUESTIONS ALL KNOW MY MARKS AT ONCE HERE HE HAD ASKED ABOUT CONTRIBUTIONS FROM EXCEL AND PLAYS IT LIKE YOU HAD A GOAL LINE IMAGE THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN SO I JUST WONDERED.D.I'I'M SORRY THINGS

[105:01] DIDN'T STAY IN SIR.R. HOW IS THAT IT WAS OUR CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTION LAWS LIKE HOW BIG IS THE PROBLEM IF IF WE IF EMPLOYEES AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS CAN.N. FINANCE POSITION THAT DOES THAT FALL UNDER ANY ANY REPORTING A LOT OF MAXIMUM INDIVIDUAL DONATIONS ANYTHING LIKE THAT.T. SOSO I'M PRACTICING LAW FOR MEMORY WHICH IS ALWAYS A CHALLENGE A GOOD DAY DURING ONE.. OF THE MINI CHALLENGE THE LAW IS THAT YOU'RE GOING TO RESTRICT CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS FOR BALLOT MEASURES POSED TO CANDIDATES IS MUCH MORE LIMITED PROBABLY KNOW FROM REPUBLICANS..LAYER WITH ALL THE YEARS.. THERE'S LESS RISK OF CORRUPTION WHEN YOU'RE INVOLVED A BALLOT MEASURE SO THE SUPREME COURT HAS SAID.D. I ISS YOU CANAN RET

[106:07] CAR KIND CONTRIBUTIONS BECAUSE THERE COULD BE PERCEIVED PAYBACK FOR THOSE THERE ARE FEW LIMITATIONS AS I RECALL CAMPAIGN CALLED WE DO NOT RESTRICT.T. THE AMOUNT YOU CAN CONTRIBUTE TO MEASURE DOES NOT WRITE THE LETTER IS JUST THE ONE SHE'S THE ELDEST THAT YOU CAN..ISIS THERE IS AA QUESTION DO THE C C S S QUESTIN IS THAT THESE REPURPOSING UTILITY OCCUPATION TAX.X.I WANTED TO EXTEND IT ANDND I I U KNOW MAYBE WE DIDN'T WANT TO PUT THAT BURDEN OUT TO VOTERS IN TWENTY TWENTY COULD BE THAT HARD TWENTY ONE.E. ORANGE IS THAT IN TWENTY TWENTY ONE EXTENDING IT.T.YEYES O OKK I IN SEE.. THEHE RATES WERE GETTINGA LOT OF CONCERN THAT YOU KNOW PEOPLE FEEL LIKE WE'RE SORT OF AGREEING TO BUY LIKE A BIG HOUSE OR LARGE.E. ITETEM WITHOT

[107:09] KNOWING THAT COST ATTACHED TO IT SO JUST AS ANY CLARIFICATION AROUND WHAT THE RATES COULD BE RIGHTLY WORST CASE SCENARIOS ARE I.. THINK YOU KNOW THE ONE IN THREE HOURS AND PEOPLE HAVE CONCERNS ABOUT JUST BEING BIG QUESTION MARK SO IS THERE ANY WAY TO SHRINK THAT QUESTION MARK.K. AGAINST YOU AND SORRY SELF PUBLISHES THE REASON THEIR CONTROL BUT HE.E. TRICKS THE PEOPLE WILL TELL YOU THAT THEY HAVE GONE UP GREATLY OVER LAST YEAR'S INAUGURAL GUESS I'M NOT COMPETENT TO COMMENT ON THAT PROCESS THROUGH WHICH THE RATES ARE SET..ALLISON MAYBE YOU CAN ADD TO THAT ADDRESS THAT CONCERN.N. II CANAN DANCE RIGHT..SOSO I I Y IS TOOOO YOU KNONOW BLACK ON ABOUT RATES GOING UP GREATLY OVER THE YEARS I CAN TELL FOR YOU IS COMING HERE.. TO CHECK

[108:04] BEING WAITING TO SIGN ACTUALLY RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL RATE OF DECLINE OVER THE PAST FIVE YEARS.S. FOR CUSTOMERS BUT I DID.. BUT I WILL TELL YOU.. THAT NOWW YOU KNOW THAT WE HAVE THE LESS GREECE OR SPAIN COMING NEXT YEAR AND SEE THE REACTION BY TWENTY THIRTY THOSE RESOURCES WILL BE.. IN THERE WITH A A PORTION OF THE MAP AND THAT WE MAKE OUR SYSTEM.M.II HADAD E LEGISLATION AND THERE IS A BREAK IN FACT I ACTUALLY NEVER HEARD OF NO MORE THAN ONE AND I IN THREE HOURS FROM THOSE I IMPLEMENTED A NEW. GENERATION ACTION OVER BASELINE OF NORMAL ACTION TAKEN..THOUGH THEHE MORE CERTAIN..YEYET THERE ARE A A REGULATED MEDICAL MISSION THERE AND I WANT FOR NOW I I CAN'T WE.E.THERE'S ALSO A

[109:02] QUESTION ABOUT WHAT TO DC BETTER THAN EXCEL OR WORD EXCEL DO BETTER THAN THE CITY POSSIBLY ON EQUITY AND WITH RESPECT TO RACE.I THINK I I SOMETIMES ACHING GO DOWN BECAUSE YOU KNOW I PUT SOLAR ON MY HOUSE..I THINK IT WORKS LIKE THE AND YOU KNOW MY RATE IS DOWN THE MEDIA'S BENEFITS AND WHO CAN AFFORD SOLAR PANELS.S.SOSO JUST WANTED TO GT A SENSE FROM BOTH ALLIES AND FROM STAFF ON WHAT IT READ US MAYBE IN TERMS OF EQUITY AND THE D.. POSSIBLE DELIVERABLES THAT IT'S A CITY AND WITH THE MEANEST FLIES ENERGY SOURCE VERSUS EXCEPT.. ON STEVIE WONDER ABOUT THE MAN ACTUALLY ONGOING TWO ROUNDS OF BOTH JOHNSON AND CAROLYN.. T TOO COMMENT ON THIS WE HAVE QUITE

[110:00] LOTS OF DIFFERENT THINGS THAT WERE DOING THE I'M CERTAINLY.. GOING TO LEAD OFF WITH A LOT OF THE OPPORTUNITIES WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO LEVERAGE TODAY THAT WE WOULD CONTINUE IF WE WERE A MUNI WHICH AS.S. W WE KW OUR COMMUNITY WHICH IS ALWAYS ONE OF THE BENEFITS OF A MUNICIPAL UTILITY AND WE CAN FOCUS THEM ON OUR COMMUNITY OF MUCH MORE.E. WITH MUCH MORE OF A LASER FOCUSED BECAUSE MUNICIPAL UTILITY IS.S. OPERATING ON THE SMALLER AREA BUT CAROLINA'S HE WOULD MIND TALKING ABOUT SOME OF THE GRANTS WERE DOING TODAY TO HELP.P. FOLKS IN THE COMMUNITY AND STEVE ANSON COUNTY AND THE ENERGY MANAGER IN CLIMATE INITIATIVES AND REALLY.Y. GREAT CLASS AND RACIAL THING FOR ALI'S UNSIGHTLY STRIVING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO BEST DELIVER MORE EQUITABLE PROGRAMS.S. O OR COMMUNITY HAS BEEN DOING A CITY INCLUDE MAKING SOLAR GARDEN

[111:00] ACQUISITIONS ON BEHALF OF OUR LOW INCOME COMMUNITY MEMBERS. RELEASED FRIDAY THAT IS THAT SOMETHING OR DOING AS A CITY WITHIN THE BOUNDS OF OPERATING WITH EXCEL..I THINK THE THING I WOULD HIGHLIGHT THE MOST PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT THOUGH IS IS THIS REAL COMMITMENT TO ALLEVIATE SOME OF THE CONSTRAINTS ON HOW TO INSTALL SOLAR AND HOW WE OPERATE OR UTILITIES.THAT'S ONE OF THE BEST IS WE HAVE TO BRING MORE SOLAR AND YOU'RE EXACTLY RIGHT..SOLAR ISIS A A PRINCIPAL WAY MY HOW WE FIXIX IT USUALLY COSTS FOR CUSTOMERS AND ALSO LOWER THEM.M. IS ANAN IMPORTANT OPPORTUNITY IS CERTAINLY HAPPY TO PURSUE HER OWN MUNICIPAL UTILITY IN ITS THE PATH WE ARE GOING TO ASSUME ARE SENT WITH EXCEL AND OR.R. PURCHASE AGREEMENT THAT'S THE DIRECTION WE GO SO I'M NOT TRYING TO IDENTIFY ANY SPECIFIC DISTINCTIONS.. JUST

[112:04] WE NEED TO DO THAT IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE CELL AND REALLY MOVE YOUR ABILITY TO BETTER LEVERAGE OUR LANDS OUR RESOURCES TO HELP OUR. MEMBERS OUR COMMUNITY AND BRING MORE EQUITABLE PROGRAMS CAN HELP THEM EXCEL OFFENDED I'M SORRY STEVE YOU MAY HAVE MORE.I WAS JUST A SERIES OF THEM..I DON'T NEED TO ADD MUCH EXCEPT AT A HIGHER PHILOSOPHICAL LEVEL AND REACH I REALLY APPRECIATE THE QUESTION.N. BECAUSE I I THINK DESPITE A LOT OF THE ENERGY OPPORTUNITIES WE'VE SEEN EMERGING.G. MANY ARE BEING LEFT OUT SO AS WE THINK ABOUT THE NEED TO DESIGN A SOCIALLY EQUITABLE RESILIENT ENERGY SYSTEM.M. W WE NEED TO ANSWER E QUESTION WHAT IS AN EQUITABLE ABOUT OUR CURRENT SYSTEM.M. AND LOTS OF GREAT EXAMPLES OF NOW.W. POLICIES ENABLE COMMUNITIES PARTICULARLY TREES OF COLOR TO DEVELOP LOCAL RENEWABLE ENERGY GENERATION ENERGY EFFICIENCY PROGRAMS CAN PRODUCE HEALTHIER NEIGHBORHOODS REDUCE ENERGY COSTS CREATE JOBS ET-CETERA SO.O. I JUST WANT TO POINT OUT THAT I THINK IT'S A BROADER NARRATIVE THAN JUST USING METRICS LIKE JOBS AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT IMPACT MODELS.S. THINK THERE ARE

[113:05] THINGS THAT REALLY MISSES THE MARK AT LEAST IN MY MIND SO I THINK.. T TO TRULY B BE SOME PT OF THE EQUITY CONCERNS.S. JUST AS CAROLYN SAID IT IS GOING TO BE.. ONENE OF OUR PRIMARY CONCERNS BECAUSE AS WE TALK ABOUT RESILIENCE SOCIAL RESILIENCE HAS TO BE AT THE TOP LIST AND SO.O. DESIGNING AROUND ENERGY SYSTEMS CENTER ARE CURRENTLY AN EQUITABLE HAS TO HAS TO BE REALLY IN OUR LANDS.. A NICICE ANDND U UI KNOW ARE STILL RISE UP AND IS THERE ANY CHANCE THAT THIS SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT THAT RUN THROUGH THE INSTRUMENT OF A PAPER CHAIN FROM OVERSEAS FOR STEVE SORRY..WEWE ALSO IDENTIFY THEIR PASSIONS ARE GOING TO.. BE WITH I APOLOGIZE TO STEVE WOULD YOU TALK ABOUT WHAT WE

[114:00] DID WAS REFER TO THE PEOPLE OR SO BUT WE ENSURED IS THAT WE WERE CONSULTING WITH THE FOLKS IN THE CITY BETTER.R.OHOH REALLY HAVE BECOME OUR WORDS AND SAM.. TRIED TO FOCUS EACH OF THE ASPECTS FROM THE GOALS WE ESTABLISHED THE VISION TO HOW WE'RE GOING TO STORM THE EFFORTS OF ALL OF THE PROGRAMS WE DO TO ENSURE.E. EQUITY WAS INCLUDED IN WHAT WE WOULD APPLY TO DEVELOPING THESE PROJECTS.S.THE ANSWER ON THE CAMPAIGN FINANCE PRACTICES ACT.. ANDND THE REPORTING REQUIREMENTS FOR BALLOT MEASURES IS A THOUSAND DOLLARS AND THERE'S NO MOVEMENT ON HOW MUCH YOU.. AREE

[115:01] GETTING FINANCE LAWS THING GOES TO THAT CONCERN THE TOWN CAR JUST MENTION IN TERMS OF BEING TOO STRICT IN TERMS OF REGULATING FIRST MAN ATTACKED.D. A SASASH AND A A PALESTINIAN AND THE REPRESSION OR TREAT US FOR THE CITY VERSUS EXCEL.. I IN TE EYE TO EYE SURGEON DID A GREAT JOB OF ANSWERING A QUESTION THAT I WOULD SAY THAT IN ADDITION WE WOULD ENHANCE OUR PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT.. THAT WE STARTED WORKING A NUMBER OF YEARS AGO THE COLORADO ENERGY OFFICE WHERE THERE IS A LOW INCOME I CAN FIND THAT I.. KNOW THE INCARNATE HONORED ME WITH THE FACT THAT I KNOW DOING THINGS IN ADDITION TO WORKING ON A PROGRAM THAT WILL BE DOING TO OUR ENERGY AND COLLABORATION WITH A NEARBY BASE.E.SO YEAEAH

[116:00] FOLLOW UP ON THE QUESTION JUST QUICKLY ON WEDNESDAY THE THINGS IN THE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT IS TO PURSUE CHANGES IN STATE LEGISLATION.N. SOSO HOWOW WASAS HE.E.THOSE EFFT THE STATE LEVEL IMPACT THE KINDS OF THINGS THAT CAN BE ACHIEVED WITH RESPECT TO RACIAL EQUITY BUBBLES TO HOLD TURN TO YOU..THANKS MARYUMUM II THINK.. WHAT WE WANT TO START IDENTIFYING OUR ENERGY POLICIES TODAY THAT ARE PERHAPS AS I WAS DEFINING EARLIER AND EQUITABLE SO FOR EXAMPLE.. MOST POLICIES TODAY SUPPORT OR POLICIES.. POLICIES FOR INDIVIDUAL HOMEOWNERS TO TAX CREDITS WHICH EXCLUDES ALL FAMILIES AND HALF OF ALL FAMILIES OF COLOR WHO DON'T OWN THEIR HOMES.. SO ASAS WE

[117:00] START THINKING ABOUT THE POLICIES THAT ARE PERHAPS NOT IN ALIGNMENT WITH OUR ARE EQUITABLE ENERGY SYSTEM GOALS.. I I WHAT I WOULD ANTICIPATE AND HOPE IS THAT WE COULD USE THE PARTNERSHIP TO IDENTIFY THE NEWS POLICIES AND FIND A PATHWAY TO.. G GO TO THE STATE LEGISLATURE OR GO TO THE REGULATORY AGENCIES TO ENSURE THAT WE ARE CREATING MORE IN EQUITIES.S.SOSO THIS IS AN UPCOMING ANSWER.R.SOSO U UMO WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IS IF I UNDERSTAND YOU CORRECTLY IS THAT IN A PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT WERE IN A PARTNERSHIP..WHAT WOULD HAPPEN N IS NEXT ON THE CITY WOULD GO TOGETHER TO THE STATE LEGISLATURE ARE FIRST IDENTIFY POLICIES THAT ARE NOT RICH ACHIEVING.. EQUITY GOALS AND THEN AND THEY GO TOGETHER TO THE STATE LEGISLATURE AND TRY TO CHANGE

[118:00] THOSE.. THAT WOULD WORK WELL WE DIDN'T DISCUSS THAT BUT THAT WOULD BE WITH.H. WHAT I WOULD EXPECT SO THE COUNCIL COURSE HAS YOUR COMMITTEE TO LOOK AT REGULATORY AFFAIRS AND LEGISLATIVE ACTIONS.. THAN IT COULD BE SOMETHING THAT THE OVERSIGHT COMMITTEES COULD DISCUSS IN TERMS OF WHERE ARE THE POLICIES THAT NEED SOME TWEAKING OR MODIFICATION SIMILAR TO THE DISCUSSION AROUND ONE HUNDRED TWENTY PERCENT RULE..I WILL SAY THAT THIS IS AN AREA THAT WE WILL DO REGARDLESS WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO REALLY FOCUS ON.N. WHERE OUR POLICIES ARE IN MIS ALIGNMENT WITH OUR EQUITY GOALS.S. AND S SOO WHATM WHAT I WOULD HOPE AND IT IS THAT WE COULD USE THE ADDITIONAL HORSEPOWER OF EXCEL TO MOVE SOME OF THOSE POLICIES QUICKER THAN WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO DO OTHERWISE..CACANN YOU MARRYRY Y AND MARK JENNY THE THEHE THEHE WE.E. WERE THERE ONE ELSE TO

[119:05] LOVE THE LESSONS THAT I HAVE BEEN ANSWERED AS WELL BUT I JUST WANTED TO SAY THANK YOU ALICE.. FOR HER COMMENTS ABOUT THE ENGAGEMENT WHICH IS SOMETHING THAT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ME AND SOMETHING I WAS AFRAID THAT WOULD BE MISSING AND IS.S. IN DISAGREEMENT OR THIS PARTNERSHIP AND ALSO I AM REALLY EXCITED ABOUT THE IDEA OF SERVING AS AN EXAMPLE FOR OTHER SEATS AND HOPEFULLY EVENTUALLY TELL US WHAT THAT REALLY MEANS.I SUPPOSE EVENTUALLY WILL KNOW THE BUILDING THE RELEASE OF THE GREEKS.S.THANK YOU FOR SHARING HIS POINTS BUT I'M SLIGHTLY ARE.. YOU LOOKING FOR MORE INFORMATION WENT BACK TO WHAT MARY WAS TALKING ABOUT BECAUSE I UNDERSTAND A OF A FRANCHISE AGREEMENT ITSELF IN ITS GOALS.. LAWYER TERM THAT

[120:06] MEANS THOSE THAT WOULD BE SOME TYPE OF A MATERIAL BREACH BUT LOOKING AT THE GUIDING.. PRINCIPLES FOR THE PARTNERSHIP AND I WAS LOOKING AT GOALS TO FIRE HER FRIENDS TALKING ABOUT THE OPERATION.. TO SEE A SELLLL ABOUT ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY PERCENT IN THE INVITATION ON SITE GENERATION.N. IN TARIFFFF FOROA BUS SEAT ELECTRIC.. BUSSES ALLOWANCE OF CROSS PROPERTY ENERGY SHARED A MOVABLE BARRIERS LARGE AMOUNT OF DISTRIBUTED GENERATION.N. AND ALSO THE RECITATION OF MY RIBS AND SPECIFIC PROJECTS SOME WONDERING IF THIS ALSO FACTOR INTO WHETHER WE CAN OUTS OF THIS PARTICULAR AGREEMENTS.S.SORRRRY FOROR THE

[121:00] PROVISIONS IN THE FIVE YEAR PERIODS ARE WITHOUT ANY RESTRICTIONS SO.. THE COUNCIL OR COMMUNITY COULD DECIDE THAT BECAUSE SL HAND.D. O OR SHARE RESPONSIBILITIES TO UPTOWN WOULD HAVE TO GIVE A REASON YOU COULD DO TO THE ADDITIONAL THREE OF US ARE JUST FOR GHG METRICS AND NOT FOR ANYTHING ELSE..THTHEE IDEA OF WHEN ONE OF THE REASONS WE ASK THAT ADDITIONAL OPT OUT WAS BECAUSE THERE IS SOME BELIEF IN COMMUNITY THAT.T. WILL NOT JUST A PARTNERSHIP OF EVERYTHING I'VE SEEN SUGGESTS THAT THEY WILL AND THAT THEY'RE ANXIOUS TO USE THIS AS A AS AN EXAMPLE EXAMPLE FOR OTHER COMMUNITIES.. BUTUT THEHE REMEY WOULD BE TOPPED UP FOR THE FIVE YEAR OPT OUTS.S. S SO THEE QUESTION IS THESE PARTNERSHIP MEETING COOPERATION OR STATE REGULATIONS OR OUT OF THESE I JUST MENTIONED IS MORE THEY'RE MORE LIKE.. CARROTS

[122:00] THEY'RE NOT REALLY PART OF YOU REMIND ME THAT EXCEL THE HALF HE STANDS OF COURSE AS IN THEY WOULD TRY BUT HOW OFTEN THAT.T. I I WOULD NEVER CALL SOMETHING AN AGREEMENT A CHARACTER I WOULD SAY THAT THERE ARE PROVISIONS IN AGREEMENT AND AFFILIATED WITH THOSE REGIONS..I MEAN I HATE TO TALK ABOUT LITIGATION GOES INTO HIS PERFORMANCE AND TRY TO TRY AND REALLY GET THAT WAY..SO I I WAS A A REAL PROVISIONS IN THEIR MANY VISIONS THAT WE WORKED REALLY HARD TO GET INTO THE PIT..JJ MARK BACK HERE I WILL TRY AND HOPEFULLY SUCCEED IN RELATIVELY BRIEF FIRST QUESTION IS WHETHER THE EDITOR TOM IF THEY ARE NOT GOING WELL WE LIKE TO EXTEND THE UTILITY TAX..WELL A A FUTUE

[123:05] COUNCIL HAVE THE FLEXIBILITY AS ONE OF THE PURPOSES OF THE TAX TO PUT ASIDE A RESERVE FOR FUTURE LEGAL EXPENSES CURRENTLY WRITTEN I DON'T THINK DAVID.. KAYAY ALSO IT I S FURTHER EXPLAINED THAT AS A STAFF AND WE TALKED ABOUT IS.S. IF WE'RE GOING TO EXERCISE AN OPT OUT OUR CONVERSATION ABOUT EXERCISING THAT OPT OUT WILL WE FINANCE LITIGATION IN MY NEXT TWO QUESTIONS OR IF ALICE AND THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE.OUR WHO WE HADN'T WE CONVERSED I MENTIONED THEM.M. THERE WAS CONCERN IN THE COMMUNITY ABOUT THE STATISTICS IN EURO TWO THOUSAND AND NINETEEN.. TEN DUE FOR THE THIRD QUARTER THAT INDICATED SEVEN BILLION DOLLARS OF CAPITAL INVESTMENT IN THE CONCERN IS THAT.T. THE

[124:03] NEXT FIVE YEARS IN THE CONCERN IS THAT THAT WOULD BE THE CASE AND WE WERE TEXTURED AND PURSUE THE CAUSATION.. THAT ANY STRANDED ASSET CLAIM WOULD BE ENHANCED BY THE VALUE OF OUR PROPORTIONATE SHARE OF THE SEVEN BILLION WHO RESPONDED WERE.E. SLATED BETTER THAN I CAN YOUR NUMBER WAS MUCH LOWER ENERGY TO TELL US HOW YOU GOT.. ABSOLUTELY NO QUESTION AND YET AT THE LJ DOES OR ENACTED A BANAN ON CAPITAL AND THE COMPANY WILL MAKE I HEAR THEY DIDN'T PARTICULARLY LIKE YOU THROUGH.. THREE TO ABOUT NINETEEN POINT SEVEN BILLION DOLLARS SPENT OVER TWENTY PEOPLE OR THE ELECTRIC EYE..

[125:00] NOT ALL ELECTRIC EYE STRAIN AND CAUGHT ME IN AS WE GO BEFORE CURFEW THAT LOOKED LIKE.E. PARTICULARLY THE TOP OF A TOWN THAT THE CYCLISTS ARE CONSIDERED AS PART OF APPALACHIAN HOP GENERATION.N. AND WE LOOK ATT FIVE YEARS AND I I READ THE GENERATION CAR OR MAKING ABOUT AN.N. EIGHTY FIVE MILLION DOLLARS NUMBER SEVEN POINT SEVEN BILLION DOLLARS NUMBER THAT THEY GET THAT EIGHTY FIVE MILLION WOULD BE.. REALLY A FANAN OF THE FIVE YEARS I WOULD BE MORE APPROPRIATELY CONSIDERED AN INDUSTRY THAT OH YES AND ONE LAST PUSH..YOYOU OBVIOUSLY HAD ISSUES THIS WEEK WITH RESPECT TO THE NON INTERFERENCE IN THIS ELECTION.N.I SEE WORDS AND PROVISION AND ONE.. BUT WHAT I'M ASKING YOU IS YOU GIVE US SOME ASSURANCE FOR MILLIONS

[126:00] OF VIEWERS IN CHINA CHANNEL EIGHT IS THAT WHERE NOT JUST FROM.M. NOT ONLY TO THEHE LETTR OF THE STATUTE BUT THE SPIRIT COVID WILL NOT BE ARGUING OVER THE NEXT HOUR PASSED AND CAME OUT OF MINNESOTA.A.YOYOU UNDERSTAND WHAT WITH THIS UNITY REQUIRES IN TERMS OF TRUE NOT INTERFERENCE AND AGAIN BECAUSE HE IS ONE THING BUT SPEND THEIR MONEY IS ANOTHER.. ANDND YOU ASSURE US THAT THAT'S THE WAY IT'S GOING TO GO INTO DISCUSSING THIS AGAIN IN THREE OR FOUR WEEKS DURING THE MIDDLE OF A CAMPAIGN DEBATE OVER WHAT WE'RE DOING..I AMAM HAPPY TO PROVIDE US TURN THE MONEY I I HAVE PAIN OR ANY OTHER WAY.Y.I THINK LETTING OUT A NEW CONVERSATION.N. THAT CAN ALLOW

[127:02] PEOPLE TO QUESTION.N. AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS MAY SHOW THAT THERE WAS GOING INTO THE BOAT THAT THEY HAVE BEEN A MEMBER THE FORM THAT YOU SHOULD IS ABOUT EIGHT MILLION MEMBERS ARE ON RECORD.D.THANK YOU YOUOU GREAT GREAT JOY THAT YOU RICHLY IN YOU..II THINK I LOWERED MY HAND INSTEAD OF EATING STUFF THAT I.. KNOWW THE QUESTIONS ON LIABILITY A THE THREE R'S.. UNDERSTAND THAT WE YOU KNOW NEIGHBORING TOWNS HAVE.E. MULTIPLES ++MUSIC PLAYING;; ESSAYS ONE ABOUT THE CONTEXT WAS A RELIGION.N. SOMETIMES OR I LOST OUR ALLY AND MAIN STREETS IN BOULDER IS OUR LIABILITIES ACTUALLY PRETTY GOOD SO I JUST WAS WONDERING FROM STAFF OR FROM ALICE THINK.. WHAT IS OUR CURRENT LIABILITY STARTING IN AND JUST THE CONTEXT FOR THE MULTIPLES BETTER THAN HIM..YOU KNOWOW THE

[128:11] FOUR KINDS OR.R. OTHER TOWNS MAY BE AT AND I IS S AA MULTIPR OF LIKE CLEO ONE OR TWENTY PERCENT IF ANY WERE RESTARTING ITS RELIABILITY AND HOW MUCH ROOM WE HAVE TO GROW APPARENTLY.Y. THEHE GYM WH HER SOUL IS ALICE FOR HOMESES YET..ALICE MAY BE JUST EVER CONTEST LIKE TO LIVE IN A TOWN WHERE I WOULD LOSE POWER.. FOR WEEKS AT IT LIKEE FOR A WEEK ININ JANUARY AND WE CAN JULY AND AGAIN JUST HAS NOT BEEN MY EXPERIENCE BOULDER SO WHAT IS OUR SORT OF STARTING PLACE FOR RELIABILITY..SO I I CANAN TELLU WHERE WE BENCHMARK AGAINST OTHER UTILITY COUNTRY AND OUR RELIABILITY AND BE BACK IN COURT WHILE.. THEHE BUTLER ARE NOT THE WORST OF THE WORD OUT THAT THERE'S PROBABLY MORE THAT YOU CAN DO FOR OUR LIABILITY PERSPECTIVE HOW

[129:00] MUCH ARE YOU WILLING TO..II LIKE DOING IT PART OF THE GREEN IS REALLY DIGGING INTO THE RELIABILITY AROUND THE BOULDER AREA WE HAD GREAT CONVERSATIONS ABOUT HOW HE I I CLEANED A LAYER AND THAT WILDFIRE RISK..WELLLL I I DID A SHOW WE'RE GOING TO FOCUS OUR EFFORTS..II ATETE ANY INTERVIEW CARTER. SITTING OUT HOW WE GOT THE ADVISORY GROUP AND LOOKING AT WHERE WE ARE THERE OPPORTUNITIES FOR IMPROVEMENT OVER ONE DOLLARS AND THE OTHER END OF THE EARTH REALLY.Y. THAT COLLABORATION IS GOING TO BE REALLY IMPORTANT AS WE MOVE FORWARD AND BACK ON AND FIGURE OUT WHAT O DOLLARS INITIALLY.. THEHE WHOLE ANSWER THE SECOND PART OF THE WESTERN REGION WHICH HAS TO DO WE COMPARE WITH THE

[130:00] NEIGHBORING COMMUNITIES AND CERTAINLY FOR COLLINS IS A VERY DIFFICULT COMMUNITY FOR THE UTILITY TO COMPARE AGAINST..IT'S ONENE OF THE BEST RELIABILITY LEVELS IN THE COUNTRY..THAT'S BECAUSE NINETY EIGHT PERCENT OF THEIR SYSTEMS UNDERGROUND AND THEY HAVE SPENT DECADES IN UNDERGROUND IN THOSE SYSTEMS AND WORLD LEADER IN.. MOVING TOWARDS UNDERGROUND IN A SURLY IS THE NINETEEN SIXTIES SO IN FORT COLLINS AT LEAST WHEN I LEFT FOR.. THEHE STATISTIC WAS ONCE EVERY FIVE YEARS A CUSTOMER WOULD EXPERIENCE AN OUTAGE ON AVERAGE.. W WE LOOK HERE IN BOULDER AND CERTAINLY THE LEVEL IS HIGHER THAN THAT FROM THE INSURER ALICE COULD.. EVENTUALLY FIND A FORCE PROBABLY HAVE OFF THE TOP OF YOUR HEAD WITH THE AND

[131:00] LONGMONT IS ABOUT SIXTY PERCENT TO SIXTY TO SEVENTY PERCENT UNDERGROUND SYSTEM.M.UM WHAT ELSE IS ABSOLUTELY RIGHT TO IF I WERE LOOKING HAPPEN WE WILL BE LOOKING OUT.T. O ON PART OF THE CRITERIA OF THE UNDERGROUND THAT WE WOULD BE DOING IS HOW DO WE IMPROVE RELIABILITY.. ANDND I IT IS SELECTING THE RIGHT PLACES THAT HAVE ISSUES IN.N. UNDERGROUND MINES WHERE OUR HIGHEST LEVEL OF RELIABILITY AND PART OF A DATA SHARING AGREEMENT WE REACHED WAS TO RECEIVE RELIABILITY DATA SO THAT WE CAN DETERMINE WHERE.. PROJECTS CAN BE DONE TO DO THAT ARE ALSO A ZEALOUS MENTION THE WILDFIRE MITIGATION AND THE NEW LOOK AT AREAS WHERE TREE TRIMMING.. MAYBE ALL I WORE M MYY REGULAR SCHEDULE I THINK IT'S ALL

[132:00] TRIMS TREES IN BOULDER ON A THREE OR FOUR YEAR CYCLE.E. I N PARTICULAR AREAS OF SIGNIFICANT OUTAGES THEM PROBABLY DO THIS NOW YOU INCREASE THE TRAINING CYCLES SO YOU CONTROL THE TREES ARE.. ONE OF THE THINGS WE HAVE ASKED FOR ALONG THOSE LINES THOUGH IS.S. THAHAT THE COMMUNY ENGAGEMENT AROUND TREE TRIMMING FOLLOWS THE GUIDELINES WE HAVE IN THE VALUES OF BOULDER HOLDS WAS COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT TO ENSURE EVERYBODY'S FOR. WHAT'S GOING ON AND HAVE SOME INPUT INTO THE TREE TRIMMING.G. OKOK S SOO I I SEE N NO MORE HAP SO GOING ONCE GOING TWICE GOING THREE TIMES FOR MORE QUESTIONS.. MORE KELSO QUESTIONS I BELIEVE IT'S TIME TO TURN THE HEARING. ANDND T O KICK US OFF FOR THE IN A AN ARID AS SARAH HUNT ME TO GIVE

S SO I'LL DO A QUICK CHECK WITH THEM JUST TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY'RE WILLING TO CEDE THEIR TIME TO YOU AND THEN WE'LL ADJUST THE TIME CLOCK ACCORDINGLY. IT WILL BE TIME FOR SHOWINGS YOU CAN KEEP TRACK OF YOUR TIME.E.WE ARE GOING TO BE FAIRLY STRICT TRACK SUSPECTS AND TRYING TO KEEP PEOPLE TO BE THAT YOU WERE PULLED FOR MINUTES JUST BECAUSE WE HAVE SO MANY SPEAKERS.S.I DODO THINK THAT'S PROBABLY THE MAJOR INSTRUCTIONS THAT YOU WANT ME TO GO THROUGH ALL THE RULES OF DECORUM SAM.M. AND I I DON'T THINK SO I THINK MOST FOLKS HERE AND WE KNOW THEM IN OUR MIND THEM IF THEY FORGET.T. THE

[135:05] TIME I JUST LET US KNOW IF YOU TESTIFY FOR THE FIRST TIME.E. WE ONLY DO AUDIO TESTIMONY IN COUNCIL MEETINGS CURRENTLY STILL YOU WILL BE I'M SPEAKING YOUR NAME WILL SHOW UP OR SCREAM AT YOU HE'S JUST SPEAKING YOUR TESTIMONY.Y. TONIGHT SARAH AND BEFORE WE START TO THE LIST WE DO HAVE TWO GUESTS WITH US TONIGHT FROM ONE IS FROM THE COLORADO ENERGY OFFICE WILL TOUR MEANDERS FROM THE COLORADO DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH.H.MEME ANI AM ATAT AND THEY'RE HERE TO SHARE THIS PERSPECTIVE ON THE DISCUSSIONS WE'RE HAVING NOW SO WE'LL HEAR THAT YOU.U. WILLL

[136:01] AT ALL I'M GOING TO MAKE A GUESS THAT THAT COULD BE MR. TORRE.. THINK YOU THE NAMAME OF THE JOURNEY THAT THEY.Y. WILL TOUR AND I AM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE COLORADO ENERGY.. AND WILL BE JOINED BY JOHN PUTNAM THE DIRECTOR OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROGRAMS FOR THE NEW DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENT AND WHY I AM HERE TO URGE THE COUNCIL DUE.. T TOA SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT FORWARD ALL THE STATE HAS BEEN A NEUTRAL PARTY IN THE ONGOING. STABILIZATION PROCESS ARE EXCITED ABOUT THE VALUE OF THE DISAGREEMENT CAN BRING TO A STATEWIDE CLIMATE IN CLEAN ENERGY GOALS AND ENCOURAGE THE FULL COUNCIL TO APPROVE THE SETTLEMENT.T.I WOULD I WOULD NOTE THAT THE GOVERNOR POLLS ALSO SHARES SINCE YOU WOULD LIKE TO SHARE A BRIEF STATEMENT FROM THE GOVERNOR.R.THIS AGREEMENT BETWEEN BOULDER AND EXCEL WILL HELP COLORADO ACHIEVE HER GOAL OF ONE HUNDRED PERCENT MOBILE ENERGY BY TWENTY FORTY.Y. CHILDREN EXCEL

[137:02] FOR NEGOTIATING A STRONG AGREEMENT WILL ADVANCE STATEWIDE FIND A PAIR QUALITY IN RENEWABLE ENERGY GOALS OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTS ACROSS THE STATE LINE COLOR AND ITS LEADERSHIP IN TRANSITIONING TO CLEAN ENERGY ECONOMY..THIS PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN BOULDER AND EXCEL CRUMBS AND THE NUMBER OF BENEFITS. FROM EMISSIONS REDUCTIONS AND SUPPORTIVE HOME AND OFTEN SOLAR PANELS.S. BED INSTEAD OF CUTTING EDGE TECHNOLOGY IN AREAS SUCH AS GRID MODERNIZATION OF ITS ELECTRIFICATION AND LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING WITH BOULDER IN OTHER CITIES ACROSS THE STATE. TO MAXIMIZE CLEAN ENERGY OPPORTUNITIES AND SAVING FOR ELECTRICITY CONSUMERS..IT'S A A LITTLE BIT MORE FROM THE ENERGY OFFICE PERSPECTIVE. LAST YEAR THE LEGISLATURE HAS GROUNDBREAKING BILL THAT THAT FINDS A STICK ON THE WAY GHG EMISSIONS REDUCTION TARGETS OF FIFTY PERCENT BY TWENTY THIRTY NINE PERCENT BY TWENTY FIFTY.. A AS WELL AS LEGISLATIN

[138:00] THAT WOULD REFORM THE WAY THE UTILITIES ARE REGULATED INCLUDING QAEDA FIGHTING SO ENERGY VOLUNTARY.Y. AND EIGHTY PERCENT EMISSION REDUCTION BY TWENTY THIRTY ACQUIRING THE PUC TO INCORPORATE THE FULL COSTS OF CLIMATE DAMAGES OF GHG POLLUTION AND ECONOMIC ANALYSIS OF THE TOP SINCE THEN WE'VE SEEN MULTIPLE STEPS..THTHEE UTILITIES ACROSS THE STATE TO MOVE TOWARDS RETIRING FROM THEIR COAL GENERATION AND REPLACING IT PRIMARILY WITH WIND SOLAR AND STORAGE..FUNDAMENTALLY THE COMBINATION OF LEGISLATIVE LEADERSHIP REGULATORY ACTION BY THE PUC IN THEIR COMMISSION HISTORICALLY LOW PRICES FOR WIND AND SOLAR ENERGY AND AVOID UTILITY LEADERSHIP.P. PUT US ININ THE PAST WHICH WERE DRAFTED THE CURRENT EDITION OF THE GRID AND TOWARD GOVERNOR OLSON'S GOAL OF ONE HUNDRED PERCENT RENEWABLE GENERATION BY TWENTY FOUR THE COUPLE.E. ARE JOHN IS GOING TO TALK MORE ABOUT THE ELECTRIFICATION OF TRANSPORTATION BUILDING BUT.. FROROM OUR PERSPECTIVE WE

[139:01] SEE SOME REAL VALUE TO THE STATE OF THE HOLE FROM MULTIPLE ASPECTS OF THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT FIRST OR THE EMISSIONS COMMITMENTS INCLUDING THE INTERIM TARGETS FOR.. TWENTY TWENTY TWO TWENTY TWENTY FOUR AND TWENTY AND TWENTY SEVEN TWENTY THIRTY SECONDS..ADDITIONAL CLARITY AND CERTAINTY ABOUT THE TRAJECTORY OF EMISSIONS REDUCTIONS OVER THE DECADE.E. WAS THE FACT THAT THESE ARE CLEARLY STATED TONNAGE COMMITMENTS WHICH AVOIDS ANY ARGUMENTS ABOUT THE BASELINE FROM WHICH ONE IS DOING THE PERCENTAGE REDUCTION WERE..WEWE ALSO THINK THAT THEY CAN DIP IN THE BOULDER AND EXCEL WOULD WORK TOGETHER TO REGULATORY CHANGES TO REMOVE OR SUBSTANTIALLY INCREASED. HUNDRED AND TWENTY PERCENT LIMIT ON SITE SOLAR GENERATION HAS REAL VALUE STATEWIDE..THIS WOULD REQUIRE LEGISLATIVE AND OR USE THE ACTION.N.I THINK THE TRUTHH OF THE MATTER IS AND IF OLDER

[140:00] AND EXCEL WELL IN HAND AND SUPPORTING THAT CHANGE IS A VERY HIGH LIKELIHOOD OF SUCCESS.S.WEWE THINK THAT THESE CHANGES SUPPORTS THE GOALS OF EXPANDING RENEWABLE GENERATION AND WOULD HAVE VALUE WELL BEYOND THE BOUNDARIES OF THIS IT. WAS SAD I WON'T REMEMBER TO CALL HIM TO CONTINUE THIS THE AGENCY PERSPECTIVE BOTTLE..THTE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL IN THE BOTTOM OF THE DIRECTOR OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROGRAMS AT THE CURRENT DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH ENVIRONMENT.. ANDND REALLY WANTED TO I THINK ON COUNCILWOMAN YOUNG'S QUESTIONED EARLIER IN THE

[141:00] EVENING WHICH IS WHAT'S THE RIGHT HALF SCALE BOULDERS CREATIVITY BOULDER'S ENERGY HOLDER'S LEADERSHIP.. T TO MEET THE VERY SUBSTANTIAL REALLY HUGE NEEDS OF THE STATES OF THE UNITED STATES AND ULTIMATELY THE WORLD.D. ANDND E TAKE A LOOK AT WHERE OUR EMISSIONS ARE AND WHERE EMISSIONS ARE GOING.. I INN ELECTRICITY GENERATION IS ACTUALLY MOVED TO THE SECOND POSITION FOR CARBON EMISSIONS IN THE STATE RIGHT NOW THE TOP TALENT BASE IS TRANSPORTATION.N. ELECTRIC GENERATION IS NUMBER TWO GOING DOWN QUICKLY ESPECIALLY WITH A LOT OF THE WHOLE CLOSE COAL PLANTS NOT JUST FROM EXCEL BUT FROM OTHER UTILITIES IN THE THIRD. AND EVENTUALLY WHAT WILL BECOME THE SECOND IS OUT STRUCTURES.S. THOSE ARE PLACES WHERE I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO GIVE VOTERS THE OPPORTUNITY TO THINK ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY TO SCALE.. A AS A NUMBER OF FOLKS HAVE TALKED ABOUT THINKING THAT AS WE CAN ANALYZE ACTIONS YEAR.R. W WE NEED TO HE

[142:04] INNOVATIVE AND AGGRESSIVE ACTIONS THAT WE CAN INSTILL INTO PAUL'S MOVEMENT HERE IN THE STATE TO BE ABLE TO REALLY MOVE QUICKLY ON REDUCING EMISSIONS AND TRANSPORTATION.N. AS WELL AS IN THE STRUCTURES SEGMENT AND I THINK THAT HALF.F. OF THE SETTLEMENT PROVIDES REAL OPPORTUNITY.. TO DO THAT WERE QUICKLY IN A WAY THAT OTHER COMMUNITIES IN COLORADO WILL PICK UP AND MOVE.E. AND THAT'S REALLY WHERE WE NEED TO CLOSE THE GAP MOST QUICKLY AND MOST SIGNIFICANTLY.. THE AGREEMENTS PROPOSED AGREEMENT OFFERS A NUMBER OF WAYS DO THAT YOU'VE HEARD ABOUT THE PILOT PROJECTS.S. SOMOME OF THE THINS THAT CAN BE DONE WITH THE ELECTION CASE OF CARS AND TRUCKS IN THE INNOVATIVE APPROACHES TO LOOK AT FOR EXAMPLE. MULTIFAMILY HOUSING A MORE EQUITABLE WAY TO PROVIDE THE BENEFITS OF ELECTRIFICATION.N.I THINK

[143:03] ARE TO BE DONE BEST IN A COLLABORATION THAT COULD THEN SCALE MORE QUICKLY AROUND THE STATE.. AND CERTAINLY THE OPPORTUNITY TO GO INTO THE UTILITIES COMMISSION WITH CREATIVE IDEAS LIKE THE TERRACE ELECTION MY BOSS IS ULTIMATELY HOPEFULLY ELECTRIFIED TRUCKS AND OTHER SORT OF CRITICAL EQUIPMENT..ASS FOR ME TO MAKE PROGRESS NOT JUST ON CLIMATE BUT ALSO OUR FUNDAMENTAL OZONE PROBLEMS.S. AND AGAIN THE OLDER STANDS BY ITSELF WE PROBABLY WON'T SOLVE THOSE PROBLEMS NEED TO MOVE THOSE BENEFITS TO THE REST OF THE STATE.E. THAT T I KNOW YOU'VE GOT A LONG EVENING AHEAD OF YOU A LOT OF VERY IMPORTANT PEOPLE LISTEN TO HAPPY TAKING QUESTIONS.. BUT T TO HOPE THAT YOU PROVIDE THE VOTERS THE OPPORTUNITY TO THINK THROUGH THE BEST FUTURE FOR BOULDER'S ENERGY AND LEADERSHIP BY JOHN COME HOME ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE SAME REPRESENTATIVES.S. HAVE SEEN ONON YOU WILL AND JOHN FOR BEING IN SHARON'S PERSPECTIVE THAT WILL MOVE ON TO OTHER TESTIMONY WITH HERE.E.

[144:09] THE FIRST THREE SPEAKERS ARE HOWARD GELLER RUSHED BY AND JACK WALKER OUR COUNCIL MEMBERS..I AMAM URGING YOU TO SUPPORT PLACING THE PROPOSED FRANCHISE AGREEMENT ON THE BALLOT THIS NOVEMBER.R.THE PROPOSED AGREEMENT HAS MANY POSITIVE FEATURES INCLUDING GETTING XL TO COMMIT FROM GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS REDUCTION TARGETS DURING THE INTERIM BETWEEN NOW AND TWENTY THIRTY FOR THE FIRST TIME.E. THE PROPOSED AGREEMENT CALLS FOR XL TO SUPPORT YOU THE REMOVAL OR SUBSTANTIAL INCREASE IN THE HUNDRED TWENTY PERCENT CAP ON SITE GENERATION IS HER READING A NUMBER OF TIMES.S. INNOVATIVE PROJECTS WILL ADVANCE CLEAN ENERGY GOALS IN BOULDER AND HOPEFULLY ELSEWHERE IN THE

[145:00] STATE AND NATION.N.THE PROPOSED AGREEMENT COMMITS XL TO HELP TO DEVELOP A NEW TARIFF SUPPORT THE ADOPTION OF ELECTRIC BUSES.. ALLLL OF THESE POLICIES SHOULD LEAD TO SIGNIFICANT GREENHOUSE GAS AND OTHER ENVIRONMENTAL THAT IT'S ACROSS THE ENTIRE AXLE ENERGY SYSTEM NOT JUST HERE IN BOULDER.R. AND W WE ALL REALIZE THAT THE TASK IS NOT JUST MOVE AS RAPIDLY AS POSSIBLE TO TWO HUNDRED PERCENT CLEAN ENERGY IN BOULDER BUT TO DO SO IN THE STATE. AND BEYOND FOR THESE REASONS I URGE COUNCIL MEMBERS TO SUPPORT THE AGREEMENT..ANAND I I ALSO WANTD BEFORE CONCLUDING COMMAND ALL OF THE INDIVIDUALS INVOLVED IN BRINGING FORWARD A PROPOSED AGREEMENT HAS REAL VALUE FOR ADVANCING CLEAN ENERGY AND CLIMATE CAUSE IN

[146:00] BOULDER AND IN COLOR.R.NOW'S THE TIME TO LET CITIZENS THE CITIZENS OF BOULDER VOTE.E. THANK YOU VERY MUCH TO OUR NEXT SESSION BUT JEFF WALKER TODAY AND BOUGHT A MESH CAP THE FIRST YEAR THE GUESTS.S.II MADE ABOUT I'M A MEMBER EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE INDIAN B SCHOOLS HERE ARE VERY CONCERNED AND DISAPPOINTED THAT THE CONCERT IS MOVING FORWARD STARTED EXACTLY ON THIS AGREEMENT..

[147:10] ART OF THE STARS LEE TODAY AND IT SEEMS THAT AN ALTERNATIVE ROUTE BY DONNA B'S BEHOLD CHEAPER AND ACTUALLY GET TO OUR GOALS.. INNOVATIVE POSSIBILITIES MENTION WHY NOT ASSESS THESE THINGS CAREFULLY AND THEN COMPARED TO COSTS..WHITE TRASH TALKS A GOOD TALK ABOUT HELPING ECONOMICALLY DISHONEST AND ITS PEOPLE IS A GREAT CHANCE TO PUT THAT INTO ACTION AND NOT MOVING FORWARD WITH THIS AGREEMENT TODAY.. ON THE GOOD THINGS LIKE YOU ASSISTANCE AND AFFORDABLE HOUSING THAT WE CAN DO IT FOR THIRTY MILLION DOLLARS A YEAR THAT THESE ARE CITY POCKETS.. THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE DEMON DOES NOT MEET THE CITY'S GOLF HUNDRED PERCENT ELECTRICITY FROM RENEWABLES ARE THE ACTIONS NOT THE SAME THING AS A NEW POSE.E.ININ FACTT TALKING ABOUT NATURAL GAS WHICH MEANS

[148:00] PACKING WHICH IS LITERALLY SICKENING PEOPLE AND ADDING TO CLIMATE CHANGE EVEN AS WE SPEAK IS THIS A BABY WANT TO VOTE.E. ON COUNCIL HAVE PERSONALLY PROMISE IS THAT LOVE THAT HE WOULD SUPPORT THIS POSITION ALLOW PEOPLE TO WORK ON IT AND WE FOCUS ON THIS.YOU'D BE BREAKING THAT PROMISE..FINALLY WE SHOULD NOT BEND AT ALL THIS IS JUST TELLING PEOPLE THE WORLD THAT IS NATURALLY THINK THIS IS A GOOD DEED..

OFTEN COMES A TIME IN LITIGATION WITH BOTH SIDES REALIZE IT'S BEST TO SEEK A WIN WIN SOLUTION THAT TIME HAS DRAWN THE DETAIL OF THE COMPLEX AGREEMENT.T.I HAVE READ EXTRACTS READ MANY LETTERS TO THE CAMERA AT A RATE NOT HERE TO DISCUSS THE LEGAL GOVERNMENT SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN WELL NEGOTIATED..

[150:08] TONIGHT I SIANZTHE SONG GOES I AM HERE TO URGE THE CITY COUNCIL TO VOTE IN FAVOR OF ALLOWING US TO SAVE THE ORGANS ADULT LEGAL AGREEMENT.. I'VE NO DOUBT THAT WILL BE MUCH DISCUSSION LEADING TO THE NOVEMBER VOTE.E. WILL BE ABLE TO MAKE UP OUR MINDS OFTEN HEARING AND READING THE PROSE CALLED XE.. AS OPPORTUNITY TO STOP SPENDING LEGAL FEES THAT ARE MOST OFTEN COUNSEL THAT MEANS WE WILL FIND OUT BY A VOTE IN NOVEMBER WHETHER OR NOT TO RECEIVE YOU. MUST HAVE THE TIME FOR THE VOICES..THANK YOU

[151:03] FOR ALL THE EFFORTS TO PUT IN TO THIS DISCUSSION IS THAT AND THE HAND THAT.. THEHE THEHH THE U UMM THEHE COPOPS THEHE RS JUST CONCERNED ABOUT HIS QUESTION TO MENTION THE FRANCHISE AGREEMENTS AND WONDERING WHAT THE HOUSE WAS HER WISH THESE TWO THINGS.S. WOULD YOU LIKE TO DIRECT NATURAL MATCH THE OR STAFF BECAUSE I IMAGINE WE'RE BOTH HAVING TO ANSWER THE QUESTION.N.SOSO MY SUGGESTION JIMMY ALREADY A QUESTION DOWNLINE RETURN TO STAFF TO TALK ABOUT THE IMPACT OF SINNERS OR DAMNING TESTIMONY..OKOK O OKK JENNY ANN AFTER JACK REED HOUSES AND BY SUSAN PIERCE AND THE EDITOR TO THEM THAN WITH THE SENSES AND BOUGHT FROM BOULDER..I'M

[152:03] REALLY FRUSTRATED THAT THIS PROPOSAL ROSEN IS BEING PUSHED THROUGH A LIGHTNING SPEED SHORTLY BEFORE WE WERE TO KNOW THE FULL COSTS OF MUNICIPAL CITATION. FOR WHICH WE'RE JUST NOW RECEIVING OFFERS OF ANY EXPENSES CLEAN RENEWABLE ENERGY.Y.IN CONTRAST WE DO NOT KNOW THE FULL COST OF THE FRANCHISE WITH XL.. ONLY THAT WILL BE CHARGED A PREMIUM FOR THE EXTRAS NEEDED TO MEET OUR ENERGY AND CLIMATE EQUITY AND RESILIENCY GOALS.S. I IN ADDITN WE WILL LIKELY SETTLE FOR MANY YEARS WITH THE PORTFOLIO INCLUDING PRATT GAS WHICH THEY HAVE.. NOWOW ARE TALKING ABOUT USING GAS.. TECHNOLOGY IN THE FUTURE ON.N. ANDND I'M SORRY I LOST MY PLACE HERE.E. AS OPPOSED TO ALL RENEWALS ARE MANY OTHER CONCERNS INCLUDING THE INABILITY OF THE CITY UNDER THIS PLAN TO CONTROL RATES WHICH WOULD DISPROPORTIONATELY HURT OUR MOST DISADVANTAGED RESIDENTS.S.

[153:02] BELIEVE THEY SHOULD POSTPONE A VOTE ON THIS PROPOSAL UNTIL WE HAVE A FULL COST ESTIMATE ON MUNI AND FOR UNDERSTANDING OF THE RATES AND COSTS OF AN XL FRANCHISE.E. AT THE POINT THE CAN COMPARE PLANSNS SIDE BY SIDE IN TERMS OF COSTS ROSE AND THEN DECIDE WHICH IS THE BEST PATH FOR OUR CITY.Y. OTHERWISE THIS IS NOT A CHOICE XL DOESN'T ALLOW TIME FOR FULL ANALYSIS AND COMPARISON OF THE TWO PLANS SHOULD BE A HUGE RED FLAG TO ALL OF US..I UNDERSTAND THAT THE PANDEMIC HAS BROUGHT FINANCIAL PRESSURES TO BEAR ON.N. THEIR OWN TERM FINANCING OPTIONS OUT THERE WHICH WERE MENTIONED IN ADDITION THE FUTURE WILL HOLD MANY INNOVATIONS IN ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND IN PURCHASING OPTION FOR EXAMPLE LIEBERMAN'S COMMUNITY CHOICE.E. THIS SEEMS LIKE A PARTICULARLY BAD TIME TO WALK INTO A LONG TERM AGREEMENT WITH THE LARGE SLOW MOVING MONOPOLY RATHER THAN REMAINING THREE TO PIVOT TOWARD NEW TECHNOLOGY..WELLLL

[154:14] WE'VE INVESTED SO MUCH THE MONEY AND AFTER SHE WAS LIKE MADNESS TO DENY VOTERS AN HONEST COMPARISON PLANS NOW.. THE NEXT THREE HAVE SUSAN PETERSON PEDICURE AND CONNER MANNING SAYS.S. H HI THIS IS IN TEARS AND A RESIDENT OF BOULDER AND I'D LIKE TO TALK ABOUT HOW EXCEL IS CAPITALIZING. ON COVE AND THUS CAPITALIZING AND COBY BY RUSHING US TO RECONSIDER PRIX IS OPRAH MUSICALLY OWNED UTILITY..EXCEL IS CAPITALIZING AND HOLD IT TIGHT WHEN THEY KNOW THAT HIGHER ANXIETY OVER CODED RACIAL TENSIONS.. ECONOMIC WORRIES AND TRUMP WOULD DISPROPORTIONATELY HIT VOTERS THEIR WAY FROM AT LEAST TWO PERSPECTIVES.S. THE

[155:02] PURSE MY CELL IS CAPITALIZING ON HOPE IT IS BY RELYING ON THE AGE OLD POLITICAL PLOY.Y. TO CREATE O OR TAKE ADVANTAGE OF A CRISIS SITUATION LIKE WAR OR A PANDEMIC WITH INCUMBENT IN THIS CASE EXCEL SEEMS LIKE A SAFER CHOICE.. SIMPLY PUT IT'S FEAR MONGERING.. THE SECOND WAVE CELL IS CAPITALIZING AND HOPE IT IS BY TRYING TO FORCE US TO AN ELECTION IN A YEAR IN WHICH NPR REPORTS CLOSE.. PANDEMIC PUTS A CRAMP ON VOTER REGISTRATION POTENTIALLY ALTERING THE ELECTORATE AND QUOTE.. THE ARTICLE GOES ONTO EXPLAIN.. THAT THOSE LESS ADVANTAGED PEOPLE THOSE PEOPLE IN OUR COMMUNITY WHO MANY OF YOU PLEDGE TO REPRESENT.. WOULD BE LESS LIKELY TO RE REGISTER TO VOTE WITH OUT THE DIRECT FACE TO FACE COMMUNITY INTERACTIONS THAT COLD PREVENTS.S. U US THE PEOPLE WHO WOULD THAT GET FROM A MORE EQUITABLE COMMUNITY OWNED

[156:00] ELECTRIC UTILITY WILL DISPROPORTIONATELY BE DENIED THE VOTE IN THIS NOVEMBER'S ELECTION.N.WELL ANXIOUS I GETET ALL WANT TO RETURN TO A SIMPLER TIME BUT NOW IS NOT APPROPRIATE TIME FOR EXCEL TO BE CAPITALIZING ON COVERT.. NOW IS IT TIME FOR US TO BE BOLD IN THE FACE OF EXCELS PRESSURES TO ABANDON OUR COMMUNITY DREAMS OF A CLEAN DRAIN GRATES AT MY TABLE ENERGY FUTURE.. WHERERE ALL DER LET'S ACT LIKE AA FIRE OTHERS TO DO THE SAME PLEASE CURTAIL NEGOTIATIONS WITH THE SELLER WHO BY THE WAY IS CAPITALIZING AND TOOK. A DECISION THAT STRIPPED THE EDITOR COLUMN A AND LENSES GO THERE.I KNOW THIS IS VERY LITTLE DELAY THERE.E.II A AM II APPRECIATE ALICE JACKSON'S SINCERE APOLOGY FOR THE ELECTIONEERING CALLS TO THE COMMUNITY..HOWEVER I HAVE TO

[157:11] SAY YOUR APOLOGY WAS SLIGHTLY DIMINISHED VIEW WHEN YOU INDICATED.. THAT HE DIDN'T KNOW THAT SUCH BEHAVIOR MIGHT BE OFFENSIVE TO US PASSING IT OFF AS PART OF GETTING TO KNOW US.. REALLY SOUNDED TONE DEAF TO ME I AM NOT SURE HOW YOU COULD NOT SEE THAT AS THEY ARE INFLUENCING.G. WHY WOULD THAT MAKE ME FEEL LIKE A CELL IS UTTERLY TRUSTWORTHY AND AND NOT.. OUR ADVERSARY WENT FOR THE LAST THAT YOU FOUGHT FOR EFFORTS TO PURSUE CLEAN ENERGY BECAUSE YOU CHOSE TO BUILD POWER PLANTS THAT WERE COAL FIRE.. IN THE RECENT PAST I BE MORE INCLINED TO BELIEVE THE POSITIVE TALK AROUND ALL OF THIS EXCEL AND THE CITY DEMONSTRATED.D. COMMITMENT TO THE PARTNERSHIP WITH BOULDER LIKE HEARING FROM ACTUALLY

[158:00] ENGAGING WITH IN A SUBSTANTIVE MANNER THOSE IN THE COMMUNITY WHO ARE NOT RUSHING THIS THE BALLOT.T. I WOULD BE MORE COMFORTABLE IF WE WERE CONSIDERING THE POTENTIAL OF THE RFP KEYS BEFORE PUSHING THIS ON THE .. THERE ARE NUMEROUS SERIOUS QUESTIONS THAT HAVE NOT BEEN ANSWERED BY COUNCIL STAFF WERE EXCEL THIS ALL HAPPENED SO FAST..EVEN TONIGHT YOU ALL MENTIONED HOW LITTLE TIME YOU HAVE TO GO INTO THINGS TO TALK ABOUT THIS ISSUE SUFFICIENTLY WHY ARE WE RUSHING INTO A TWO BILLION DOLLAR DECISION..I APPRECIATEI REALLY SINCERELY DO APPRECIATE THAT WE COULD HAVE A PROJECT THAT IS EXCELLENT.. LET'S DO THEM BUT LET'S REMEMBER TOO THAT EXCEL NEEDS BOLD HER IN HOT CARS WORDS EARLIER TONIGHT TO CHECK SOME OF THESE PROJECTS OUT WILL TOWARD HER CHAIR ALL..

THE THE THE CUTEST AND COUNSEL FOR ALL THE GREAT WORK YOU PUT IN IT FOR HEARING FROM US TONIGHT..THIS TIME I DO NOT SUPPORT SENDING FRANCHISE AGREEMENTS THE BALLOT.T.IT'S A A LOT ABOUT EAH OF THE D'S AND R'S THEY SUSPECT THE YEARS AND DECADES FROM NOW.W. THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS TO COME OUT OF THIS DECISION WILL BE IMPACTS ON CALL SO CONTROL ENERGY LANDSCAPE ACROSS THE U S IS CHANGING QUICKLY.Y.ONONEE OF TE BEST POSITION TO BENEFIT FROM FUTURE CHANGES WE NEED TO BE FREE TO MAKE THE CHOICES THAT ARE BEST FOR THE COMMUNITY.. THIS AGREEMENTWHATEVER ITS MERITS WILL LET OUR BARELY

[160:00] CONSIDER ALL THE OPTIONS WILL MAKE BOTH OUR ENERGY AND BROADBAND DECISION SUBJECT TO THE INCENTIVES OTHER THAN THE BEST INTERESTS RIGHTS.S. AND ACCOUNTABILITY CURRENT EVENTS GIVE US PLENTY OF EXAMPLES OF GOVERNANCE PROBLEMS THAT CONFRONT THE SYSTEM LIKE THAT SELLS FIRSTENERGY IN OHIO. WELL THAT IS AN ILLINOIS STATE AND SOUTH CAROLINA.A.THTHE GENE IN CALIFORNIA I COULD GO ON BUT I THINK THEY'RE PROBABLY WEAR THESE COMPANIES ARE NOT YES GO BUT THEY SHOW HOW THINGS GO WRONG..WE'VE SEEN ENOUGH BAD BEHAVIOR FROM ME CLEAR THAT COLORADO'S SYSTEM IS UNFORTUNATELY NOT IMMUNE FROM THIS THING..THE INCENTIVES IN STRUCTURE AND WOULD NOT LEAVE PEOPLE SIMPLY NEVER BE ABLE TO PROVIDE THE ABILITY TO GET FROM DEMOCRATIC AND ALL THAT SAID I'M NOT A SUPPORTER OF THE PLAYSTATION ANY COST.T.HOWEVER WE CAN'T HAVE ENOUGH INFORMATION TO MAKE THE FINAL ANALYSIS.S. WHAT I'VE ASKED FRIENDS AND NEIGHBORS WHAT THEY THINK OF THE FRANCHISE SESSION.. THE MOST COMMON REPLIES BEEN ASKED WHAT THE FINAL COST IS LAZY SHE WILL BE AND WHY SAY WE DON'T KNOW YET ARE CONFUSED AS TO WHY WE'RE DISCUSSING THIS.. W WE

[161:01] DON'T HAVE ALL THE AVAILABLE POWER THE IMPACT OF THE FRANCHISE WILL DEPEND ON HOW COMES THAT THE LEGISLATURE IF YOU SEE IT ALREADY SELLS BORDER.R.GIVEN THAT MANY TIMES THE CITIZENS SAID THEY WANT TO PURSUE THIS INVESTIGATION TO BE AND IT'S IRRESPONSIBLE TO GO BACK AND THIS YEAR WITH ONLY HALF THE MENU AND WITH SO MANY UNANSWERED QUESTIONS.S. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND CONNOR MET WHEN WE GOT THERE AN HOUR AND TOM WILKIE.E.

MARCHH NINE TWENTY TWENTY ONE TO GET THERE LIKE A RESOURCE PLAN BEFORE THE PUC THEN THEY'LL KNOW WHAT THEY COULD EVEN GUESS THEY DON'T KNOW WE DON'T KNOW.W. I I VOTED FOR THE UTILITY OCCUPATION TAX BY A GOOD EGG THAT WAS HEADED HERE FOR FIVE YEARS TOWARD MUNICIPAL IS A SIAN.N.NONOT THT IT FELL SHE'D COME INTO AND STEAL THAT AWAY FROM ME I VOTED FOR THAT.T. BUT HUNDRED AND TWENTY PERCENT RULE.. WHYHY ALICE IS THE ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY PERCENT WILL THEIR WORD THAT CAME FROM. A PC A HABIT DUE DATE RULE ON THAT FOR YOU KNOW YOU WANTED THEM TO BLOCK PEOPLE PUTTING SOLAR ON THEIR PLACE.E.SOSO NOWOW YOU

[163:02] WANNA WALK TOGETHER DOWN AT UC TO BAKE THEM TO DROP THE RULE THAT YOU PUT INTO PLACE IN THE FIRST PLACE BUT ELECTRIC BUSSES BOULDER IS A SMALL TOWN.N.THIS IS NOT NEW YORK CITY WE'RE NOT PUTTING IN LARGE SCALE TRANSIT THINK WE'RE GOING DOWN TO SMALL VANS AND OTHER.. VEHICLES LIKE THIS GUN REPLICA ABILITY SCALE ABILITY WE CAN DO IT RIGHT HERE IN BOULDER.. AND LONGMONT GOT FIFTEEN DOLLAR PAYMENT.. FOR LOW INCOME PEOPLE FOR HER FIBER OPTICS WE CAN DO THAT IN BOULDER.. WE DON'T NEED XL TO HELP US FIGURE OUT WHAT TRANSACT OF ENERGY IS AND WHAT WE CAN DO IN MICRO GRIDS SHOULD TALK LIKE THAT ARE WELL DONE.E.THEY DID AN X RAY A A VERY AND THEN OUR WORLD TO AND JOHN SCHULTZ

[164:00] AND I CAN TURN OUR LIVES..THTHE ALMOST TWENTY YEARS BEFORE MOVING TO BOULDER INFORMED RESEARCH IN SOLAR ENERGY FOR APPROXIMATELY THIRTY YEARS.S.I SUPPORT BOWLERS GOALS FOR CLEAN ENERGY AND FALL OF BOULDER'S EFFORTS TO REACH THE STATED CLEAN ENERGY GOALS..I APPRECIATE THE DILIGENCE OF COUNCIL AND STAFF IN BRINGING THE AVERAGE IN THE APPOINTED DAY FOR THE FIRST TIME IN ALL THESE YEARS..ALTER HAS THE OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE A CHOICE BETWEEN TWO OPTIONS FOR MOVING FORWARD TOWARD MEETING THE GOALS OF CLEAN ENERGY. THAT IS CONTINUING ON THE PRESENT AFTER MUNICIPAL ENERGY OR DOCKING AND NEGOTIATED FRANCHISE AGREEMENT WITH EXCEL.I URGE CITY COUNCIL TO PLACE THESE OPTIONS ON THE NOVEMBER BALLOT.T.OLDER CITIZENS THE

[165:03] TAXPAYERS CAN EVALUATE OPTIONS AND HAVE THE RIGHT TO DECIDE ON THIS IMPORTANT ISSUE COUNCIL MUST NOT LOSE SIGHT OF BOULDER'S GOALS FOR CLEAN ENERGY CLIMATE IS NOT WAITING FOR BOULDER.THANK YOU MARIANNENEXT TIME OKIE..JOHN SCHULTZ PATRICK MURPHY SOME TIME THIS IS SOME WILL HEAR ME OK AND GOOD.D.I'VE BEEN N A RESIDENT OF BOULDER SINCE NINETEEN EIGHTY THREE..I HAVE A STRONG INTEREST IN CLIMATE CHANGE.E.I STUDIED THE ISSUE EXTENSIVELY AND I RECOGNIZE THE IMPORTANCE OF CARBRB REDUCTION..I'VE ALSO HAD A STRONG INTEREST IN UNI.. ANDND CAREFULLY WATCHING THAT ACTIVITY AND I SAW THE VALUE IN ANY EFFORT AT THE OUTSET.T. BUT WHAT I'VE SEEN IN THE INTERVENING TEN YEARS SINCE WE STARTED THE EFFORT IS COMPLICATION AFTER COMPLICATION.N. THE BIGGEST

[166:00] COMPLICATION THAT I'VE OBSERVED IS THE FACT THAT I REGRET IS INTERCONNECTED TO OTHER PARTS OF THE GRID OTHER BIRDS OF THE COUNTY OTHER CITIES.S. AND DISCONNECTING BOULDER FROM THE REST OF THE GRID WILL BE EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE..SEVERAL OF THE SPEAKERS TONIGHT HAVE SAID THAT WE DON'T KNOW THE COST WE DO KNOW THE COST IS GOING TO BE PRETTY DARN HIGH.H.WE ALSO SEVERAL SPEAKERS TONIGHT SAID THAT RUSHING INTO THIS.. WE'VE HAD THIS FOR TEN YEARS.. IF YOU HAVEN'T BEEN PAYING ATTENTION THEN MAYBE YOU SAY WERE RUSHING THAT WE ARE NOT RUSHING WE HAVE BEEN GOING EXTREMELY SLOW ON THIS EFFORT.T.SOSO FOR THOSE REASONI STRONGLY SUPPORT PUTTING THE PROPOSAL ON THE BALLOT IN NOVEMBER.R. ANDND I I WILL BE VOTING FOR IT BECAUSE I BELIEVE THAT'S THE BEST PATH FOR US TO ACHIEVE SOME CARBON REDUCTION AND TO MAINTAIN OUR CITY INFRASTRUCTURE FROM A COST POINT.. SO O I ENCOURAGE EVERYBODY WHO'S LISTENING TO THIS TO ENCOURAGE OR COUNCIL MEMBERS PUT ON THE BALLOT AND VOTE IN FAVOR COVID.IT'S A GOOD DEAL..WEWE SHOULD GO FORWARD WITH IT..THANK YOU FOR

WITHOUT MY MEMORIES IN COINS OR COUNSELING SUPPORT POSTS OVER THE GREEN ON THE NOVEMBER BALLOT APPROVAL STUDIES BOULDER.. CITY COUNCIL IS THE VOTERS THE POWER THE COUNCIL ITS VOTERS TEN YEARS AGO..

[169:12] BECAUSE ONCE MORE THAT IS ESSENTIAL TO SETTLE OR PURSUE FURTHER UPDATES SHOULD DRESS WILL TAXPAYERS AND MOTORISTS WHO PAY UP.P. THEY SHOULD BE BALANCED BY THE VOTE SHOULD NOT BE POLLUTED BY LINDA FOR THE CITY TO EITHER JOEL OR DENY VOTERS THE OPPORTUNITY TO SELL.L. A A SECOND POINT IS THAT I WRITE FOR SO MUCH TO BE BILL AYERS BECAUSE THE CITY AND PAYNE BOTH ACTS ARE ELECTED AND NOW NO ONE SEEMS.. CERTAIN POINT AS THE DONS THE YEARS I'VE HAD THE CHANCE YOUR TIME IS UP TO HIS LIKING ALICE THE REST OF THE STATEMENT SOUNDED GREAT.I WOULD DO THAT THANK YOU JOHN.N.

[170:10] XP AFTER TMR T TO THE RAIDERS AND EVAN ROBERTS AFTER.. LUCY LIVES IN BOULDER THE WALL BETWEEN THE PRO MUNI AND TIME YOU NEED PEOPLE HAS DECIDED BOULDER VOTERS AND ASK FOR A DECADE.E. IS TIME TO TEAR DOWN THAT WALL WITH FULL TRUTH AND THE SELF SERVING PROPAGANDA YOU THIS TWO MINUTE PRESENTATION WILL BE THE NINETY FIRST MEETING COUNCIL SINCE TWENTY FOUR TEAM.M.THOSE PRESENTATIONS IN THE TWENTY FOUR ARTICLES THE NEW NAUGHTY LIST DOCUMENT THE HISTORY OF BAD LEADERSHIP BAD LEGAL DECISIONS IN FINANCIAL SHENANIGANS..I CHALLENGE MANY SUPPORTERS TO REVIEW THAT HISTORY IN THOSE TWENTY FOUR ARTICLES ANY EFFORT FOR WHAT IT TRULY IS A FAILURE RATHER THAN SELF CRITICAL EVALUATION.N.MUNI HAS BEEN BASED ON SUPPORTERS BLIND HATE OF THE HIGHLY REGULATED

[171:00] XL CORPORATE MONOPOLY AND BLIND ACCEPTANCE OF THE FAILURES OF THE UNREGULATED OLDER CORPORATE.. LEADERSHIP IGNORES THE TRUE COST TO ME AND DIVERTS OUR ATTENTION BY FOCUSING ON ANYTHING ELSE THEY INSULT US AND ABANDON THEIR RESPONSIBILITY TO REPRESENT TRUE COST MANY LEADERSHIP.P. HAS BECOME A A CP THAT PARENTS THE FALSE HOOD BOLDER ONES IMMUNE TO CRITICAL VOTE ON THE MUNI WERE STATISTICALLY FIFTY FIFTY THAT WAS NOT A MANDATE FOR FULL STEAM AHEAD AT ANY COST.T.ITIT WAS A MANDATE FOR CRITICAL EVALUATION AND NOT JUST THE MUNI.. BUT THE ALTERNATIVES BOULDER RECEIVED NEITHER OF THOSE THREE TIMES WE DON'T REFUSE THE OPPORTUNITY TO VOTE FOR AN OFF RAMP.P. THE WALL THAT HAS DIVIDED BOULDER IS CRUMBLING AS WE WAKE UP TO THE FULL TRUTH AND REALITY BLAST ME SASSY INTO OBLIVION..OUOUR INTENTIONS WERE GOOD WE FAILED MISERABLY.Y.WEWE NEED TO ADAPT MOVE ON AND REPLACE FAILURE WITH COLLABORATIVE SUCCESS..LET USUS VOTE BUT REAL CARBON REDUCTION BEGINN NOWOW..

[172:02] THE SIX YEARS FROM NOW THINK ABOUT IT.T.NEXT W WE HAVE KELLY RAYS EVAN ROBINSON PAUL CALL AND TELL ME TELL YOU I NEED THAT WE'RE NOT HEARING YOU.U. EACH ISLAND TIMESTHE NOW YOU MEET AGAIN THE THE THE THEHE BEVERAGE INDUSTRY TONIGHT KELLY RAE AS A SIX YEAR RESIDENT AND HOMEOWNER THOUGH THE PIECE SHOULD MATTER IN SOUTH BOULDER..THE FEEDBACK I WANTED TO SHARE ON THE PROPOSED FRANCHISE AGREEMENT IS STRAIGHTFORWARD PEOPLE DESERVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO REVISIT THEIR DECISIONS ON FACTS HAVE SIGNIFICANTLY CHANGED. IN THIS CASE BOTH EXCELS APPROACH AND BOULDERS FINANCIAL POSITION OF TEAM SIGNIFICANTLY..ADDITIONALLY

[173:02] THE APP IS FOR BOTH OF THESE IS PRETTY CLEAR.. AND IT'S UNLIKELY THAT MORE TIME FOR STUDIES WILL IMPROVE THE POSITION WE NOW FIND OURSELVES AND I WILL KNOW THAT WE WILL HAVE THE ARE THE RESULT OF THE ELECTION.. A AS SUCH IT'S MORE APPROPRIATE TO PUT THE GREEN ON THE BALLOT. BUT THE PEOPLE OF COLOR REVISIT THE APPROACH A BULL.L. IN FAVOR TONIGHT IS NOT A VOTE AGAINST ME OR FOR ME IT'S SIMPLY A BOAT AND PASTOR ADVISED DECISIONS THE SAME PEOPLE WHO MADE THE INITIAL DECISION.N. ENCOURAGED COUNCIL TO ADD THIS TOPIC ABOUT. WHY OF TIME LEFT BECAUSE TONIGHT IS REALLY A PROCESS DISCUSSION WHETHER WE SHOULD PUT THIS ON THE BALLOT.T. WOULD BE REMISS IF I DIDN'T ALSO SAY THAT WHILE THEY AGREE THAT THIS IS THE MOST URGENT MACRO ISSUE FACING THE CITY AT THIS TIME. AND THEREFORE APPROPRIATE ADD TO THE BALLOT IN THIS MANNER.R.I ALSO FIND IT DISAPPOINTING THAT THIS FINANCIAL URGENCY IS PLACED IN DIFFERENT CATEGORY THAN THAT OF INDIVIDUALS LIVING IN BORDER FROM OTHER VALID TOPICS CARRY MUCH GREATER IMMEDIATE PERSONAL URGENCY.. I'M REALLY UNCLEAR WHY IT WOULD BE ACCEPTABLE TO SIMPLY TAKE FEEDBACK AND ADD THIS ITEM. FOR THE CONVOLUTED PROCESS OF HIS PETITIONS AND COOS AND OTHER ITEMS WITH

[174:00] EQUAL URGENCY FOR SOME MEMBERS OF OUR COMMUNITY.Y.ITIT IS NOT BECAUSE I WISH THE NEW TOPIC TO GO TO THE SAME HOOPS.. BUT RATHER BECAUSE I'D LIKE TO ENCOURAGE COUNCIL NOT TO LIMIT THEIR BALLOT DECISIONS DON'T NEED TO STOP.P.

A A PUCUC OVERSIGHT OF ANY FUTURE ACCELERATING INCREASES FOR THE POSSIBLE MUNICIPAL UTILITY WOULD BE NO INDEPENDENT OVERSIGHT OF ITS READING CREASES AND ACCORDING TO EIA DATA.A. ACCELERATES ARE ALREADY FIFTEEN PERCENT LOWER THAN THE AVERAGE RATE FOR THE REST OF COLORADO'S ELECTRIC UTILITIES DESPITE THE COMPLAINTS OF MANY OF THE OPPONENTS OF THIS AGREEMENT BY. EARLY THIS SUMMER AND WOULD AVOID A HUGE BURDEN TO THE CITY OF MANAGING OUR OWN UTILITY..THIS BURDEN SHOULD NOT BE UNDERSTATED..THE MAN ARGUMENT AGAINST PUTTING THIS ON THE BALLOT IS BASICALLY THAT WE SHOULD WAIT BECAUSE WE DON'T KNOW FOR SURE WHAT THE FINAL COST TO THE CITY WILL BE. MAYBE SOMEHOW GETTING A SLIGHTLY BETTER DEAL THROUGH FORMING OUR OWN UTILITY..ALTHOUGH ACTUALLY WE DO HAVE A PRETTY GOOD IDEA OF THESE COSTS WHICH ARE HIGH AND THE POTENTIAL BENEFITS WHICH ARE LOW..SINCE THIS IS A

I'M HERE TO ASK YOU TO NOT PUT THE PROPOSED BOULDER EXCEL FRANCHISE AGREEMENTS ON THE BALLOT THIS NOVEMBER.R.I BELIEVE THE REVISED AGREEMENTS DON'T SUFFICIENTLY PROTECT OLDER I'M ONLY GOING TO MENTION A COUPLE OF AREAS.S. FIRST THERE ARE STILL INADEQUATE ELECTION INTERFERENCE PROTECTIONS AGREEMENTS DO NOT SPECIFICALLY PRECLUDE INTERFERENCE IN SPECIAL ELECTIONS AND IN ALL TARGET EMISSIONS UP TO ELECTIONS.. NOR DID THEY PREVENT EXCEL FROM INDIRECT CAMPAIGN BY SELF SUPPORTING.. SELF PROMOTING MAILINGS FROM NOW UNTIL THE ELECTION THE CORE BY RATEPAYERS AGREEMENTS COMMANDER.. COMMIT OUR COMMUNITY TO HUGE INVESTMENT OVER TWENTY YEARS WITHOUT COMPARISON SHOPPING. YOU WOULD HAVE A SURGERY OR IF HER CLOTHES NOR BY A CAR WITHOUT COMPARISON SHOPPING GETTING A DEFINITE PRICE AND ENSURES YOU COULD YOU BE HAPPY WITH THE OUTCOME.E.PLEASE

[188:03] ALLOW TIME TO REVIEW ARE THE RESPONSES AND MAKE COMPARISONS.. ANDND I'M ALSO CONCERNED THAT MANY OF THE PRICES ARE UNKNOWN.N. ANDND THE DEVASTATING FINANCIAL IMPACT THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN BOLDER BOULDER HAS NO SAY.Y. I IN RATS RATE STRUCTURES AND CAPITAL EXPENSES EXCEL INCORPORATES INTO ITS RATES WHICH WILL SPECIFICALLY AND ESPECIALLY IMPACT LOWER INCOME RATEPAYERS.S. ANDND ALSLSO BOUR HAS ALMOST NO ROLE IN DECISION MAKING MOST DECISIONS ARE MADE BY EXCEL AND IF YOU SEE AND SOME WILL REQUIRE LEGISLATION..THERE IS NO IDENTIFIED FUNDING NO PARTNER KA SHARING IN FINANCING PIECE THE INTERVENTION IN LIBYA THAT THE LEGISLATURE OR IN PARTNERSHIP PROJECTS.S. PLEASE STOP THIS PROCESS WE NEED TO CAREFULLY REVIEW AND COMPARE ALL THE ALTERNATIVES TO MAKE SURE WE ONLY GO WHEN WE HAVE THE BEST DEAL FOR OUR COMMUNITY..THANK YOU T TO O AAX THREE AVERAGE AT KOHL'S..EVAN

[189:03] FIRE IT CAN SLEEP ON MATS OR JAMMED THE NEW HIGH.H.THTHE ARA NEAR THE HIGH CONCERNED ABOUT THE NEW FOR TWOWO O OR MORE BUT IT IS UNUSUAL HERE.E.BALLOTS GO OUT AND FIFTY PLUS DAYS THERE'S UP TO EIGHT STATE BALLOT ISSUES IN A NUMBER OF IMPORTANT CITY ISSUES ON THIS YEAR'S BALLOT. AND SELLS REGULAR RATE INCREASES AFFECT EVERYONE WEIGH MORE HEAVILY ON LOW INCOME RESIDENTS.. EXACERBATING SOCIAL INEQUITIES IN OUR COMMUNITY AND MAKING IT COMPLETELY UNFAIR FOR THEM NOT TO HAVE FULL INFORMATION WE NEED TIME TO INFORM INCLUDE DAUGHTERS.. SALLY SHOWED US JUST HOW VALUABLE THIS DEAL IS FOR THEM BY HIRING A LOBBYIST AND A FANCY CAMPAIGN MANAGEMENT FIRM JUST THIS WEEK TO INFLUENCE YOUR DECISION TONIGHT. I HEARD MISS JACKSON'S APOLOGY GET EXCEL CONTINUES TO MAKE BAD DECISIONS..THIS ERROR HAS

[190:04] HAPPENED BEFORE IN TWENTY FOURTEEN THE PUC HAD TO ASK IF OUR WEATHER IT HAD INCLUDED ANTI MUNI CAMPAIGN EXPENSES.S.ITS REQUESTS FOR RATE INCREASE..EXCEL SAID THAT A PAYMENT OF FOUR HUNDRED AND SIXTY THOUSAND DOLLARS.S. T TO AFFIRM THAT ORGANIZE THE ANTI MEAT CAMPAIGN HAD BEEN INADVERTENTLY PLACING THE COUNTER HAS TO CALCULATE COST OF SERVICE.E. WE HAVE VOTED BEFORE TO STOP CORPORATE PERSONHOOD TO GET MONEY OUT OF POLITICS WE HAVE CAMPAIGN FINANCE RULES WERE CREATED TO BE FAIR AND TRANSPARENT ME TO STICK TO THAT..WHAT WOULD YOU BUY WITHOUT KNOWING THE PRICE THEY DO NOT ACCEPT A DEAL WITHOUT A PRICE TAG DID NOT GET EXCEL A BLANK CHECK.. PLEASE VOTE NOLET'S STICK TO YOUR GOALS AND OUR VALUES AND PARTNER WITH ENERGY COMPANIES TO RESPECT THAT..THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR ALL YOUR WORKING TIME.E.IT LOOKS LIKE

[191:17] SAM'S VIDEO WAS FROZEN SO I THINK I'LL TAKE THE PREROGATIVE TO CALL THE NEXT PERSON ON THE LIST WHILE HE GETS THAT RESOLVED.D. EVER FOR A CURE A MONTH AFTER THE ICE T PALMER AND AND BRASS EAGLE.. THE PARISH COULD HEAR ME.E.WE CANOKOK I I AM ININ COMPLETE SUPPORT OF DELAYING THE MUNI DELAYING CONSIDERATION OF THIS PROPOSAL.L.WE'VE BEEN GIVEN SUFFICIENT TIME TO ANALYZE IT OWES ALL THIS EFFORT FEELS RUSHED..YOYOU BEBE YOU IS COUNSELING BEEN GIVEN A TIME TO FULLY UNDERSTAND THIS PROPOSAL.. AND GIVE YOUR OWN FEEDBACK REGARDING THE

[192:00] PROPOSAL AND SEND NEGOTIATORS BACK TO THE TABLE.. REALLY IS NO CONSEQUENCES TO ACCELERATE THE BIG BREAK THEIR BIG PROMISES TO BOULDER AN AGREEMENT VERY DIFFICULT TO RESTORE THE LOCAL UTILITY OR XL VIOLATES THE AGREEMENT XL KNOWS THAT.T. I IF SHORT TERM FINANCES ARE THE ISSUE THE CITY CAN LOOK FOR OUTSIDE FUNDING OR SLOW THE PUSH FOR THE BEAUTY INTO OUR LOCAL ECONOMY OR BY REBOUNDS.S.THE MUNI WILL HAVE EXTRAORDINARY LONG TERM FINANCIAL AND OTHER BENEFITS THAT'S WHAT WE VOTED OR.R. I IF YOU PUT THE PROPOSAL ON THE BALLOT DURING COLD AND HAVE THE ENERGY TO APPRECIATE THE REWARDS OF A LOCAL UTILITY BECAUSE THERE.. ARE NOW FOCUSED ON THE SHORT TERM OBIT.T. OWNERS WERE PROMISED WE WOULD KNOW THE WHOLE COS.. WE DON'T KNOW THAT YET AND WE DON'T KNOW THAT BECAUSE XL IS FORCING US TO SUE THEM TO GET ANY REASONABLE NUMBERS.S. OF VOTERS DID NOT ASK THAT EVERY OFFER FROM XL WAS WORTHY OF ALL BALLOT SPOT USING THE POSSIBILITY OF LOCAL TO THE UTILITY..THESE

[193:12] ARE DAILY DECIDE WHERE OUR POWER COMES FROM IS GON XL HAS SAID IT WANTS TO USE NUCLEAR POWER AND CARBON CAPTURE IS PART OF ITS COURT.T. ORDERED PLAN OLDER WANT NUKES IN FRACKING RIGHT.. WHAT ARE THE CLEVER OPTIONS FOR CARBON CAPTURE ACTUAL IS CONSIDERING TAKING THE CEO TO GENERATED BY COAL FIRED POWER PLANTS AND PABLO SHIP IN AN EXISTING PIPELINE IN TEXAS TO BE USED IN FRACKING.YEAH TRACK WITH IT.T.XL I IS KNOWN TO WANDER THROUGH ADVANCED NUCLEAR PLANT TO THE IRAQI FLAG OF CONVENIENCE ALONE RUN THROUGH THE NEXT SECOND.D.STEVE PALMER AND RUSSELL AND TIM WILL DOO THAT.T.OK THESE AGREEMENTS TO LESS SERIOUS FLAWS THE KEY CHANGES ISSUES

[194:00] GET RAISED AND THERE ARE STILL PLENTY MORE TO BE ADDRESSED AS YOU CAN TELL.. CONTRARY TO WHAT WAS SAID THAT THE SUPPOSED CLARIFICATIONS TO THE OPT OUTS COULD STILL LEAD TO LITIGATION BECAUSE OF THE NO RIGHTS FOR THIRD PARTIES FOR VISION SIXTEEN MONTHS DOESN'T WORK..THE BIZARRE AFFECTED A SCHEME WITH THE FRANCHISE GOES INTO EFFECT BEFORE THE PUC DECIDES COULD BUY IN BOULDER WITHOUT BINDING XL.L. BUYOUT DOLLAR LIMIT THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT GOES UP OVER TIME IT SHOULD GO DOWN AND SO ON. BUT THE BIGGEST FLAW IS THAT ONCE THIS FRANCHISE IS IN PLACE SO REALLY IS NO INCENTIVE TO ACTUALLY PERFORM.WE COULD GET NOTHING.G. EXCEL AND SUCCEED IN HIS NUMBER ONE OBJECTIVE KILLING OFF THE MUNI SO WHY SHOULD XL CARE OR OLDER MALES HOUSE SIX YEARS FROM NOW.W.OLDER CITIZENS WILL NOT WAIT AROUND TWENTY TWENTY SIX RESTART MYSQL IS ASIAN..WEWE KNOW THE COUNCIL COULD THEN PULL THE RUG OUT FROM UNDER US AGAIN. AND WE COULD POTENTIALLY BE FIGHTING EXCELS IN ITS COFFERS IN CORE EVENTUALLY THE BALLOT BOX BECAUSE THIS PORTABLE

[195:00] CONTRIBUTIONS DESCRIPTION IS TOO NARROW.W.WELL HOW DOES H HE WILL NOT HAPPEN AND ALEX JACKSON COULD BE GOING NEXT YEAR AND TO PARAPHRASE ALICE TRUST HAS TO BE EARNED SO FAR XL HAS DEFINITELY NOT..SOSO I F YOU WANT TO WE'RE GOING TO DEAL I SUGGEST THAT YOU SET UP A SIX TO TWELVE MONTHS TEST RIDE PROCESS.. THAT INCLUDES CITY STAFF COUNCIL CITIZENS IN EXCEL BEFORE YOU PUT ANYTHING ON THE BALLOT USED TO REALLY CLEAN UP THE LEAGUE REMAINS REAL SUBSTANCE TO THE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENTS.S. COSTS TIMELINES SO I FIGURE OUT HOW YOU WILL PAY FOR ALL THESE PROJECTS NEVER KNEW YOU COULD JUST ADD TO THE RACE FULLY RESOLVE ALL THE BIG MONEY SETTLEMENT ISSUES.S. EXPLORE ALTERNATIVE WAYS TO FINANCE UNI WERE REALLY EVALUATE XL TWENTY THIRTY COST PLAN.N. PLAN SAW

[196:01] SORRY WORK WITH THE LEGISLATURE TO GIVE CC A COMPETITIVE POWER BOTTOM LINE DO A TEST RIDE WITH XL BEFORE YOU SIGN ON THE DOTTED LINE ACT AS DE. BRASIL TO SCHL ANGIE LAWRENCE.E.YEYES I I HADL TIME TO PEOPLE..TOTOM CHAN IN NANCY'S IT REALLY WOULD POOL TIME TO GIVE YOU A LITTLE MORE HERE IF WE CAN SET THAT UP FOR THE BREAD..

I INN THEHE THH THE THEHE THEHE THE A AS S A PH IN THE NEW SOUTH AND TELL US IF YOU CONFIRM HE WAS THE DUE TIME.E.THTHE TERM HAVING DIFFICULTY COMMUNICATING WITH NANCY HOLIDAY AND THOSE PEOPLE WERE DANCING TO HER IN THE LINEUP OF THE INFORMANTS.. OKAY YEAH I'M BRAD SIEGEL FROM BOULDER WITH BRANCHES CAUGHT HIS FIRST WHEN THE HARD WORK IT'S A TOUGH ONE.E.I APPRECIATE EVERYONES OF RESPONSIVENESS AND HARD WORK ON THIS POINT WE'RE NOT THERE YET START..

[198:07] OF THIS PROPOSAL IS NOT READY FOR THE VOTERS BECAUSE IT'S MISSING KEY INFORMATION NEEDED FOR AN INFORMED VOTE MEANS YOU CAN'T GO TO THE VOTERS PROBABLY. WERE MISSING ESSENTIAL COST COMPARISON INFORMATION WE HAVE NOT COMPLETED THE LOCAL HOWARD CROSS ASSESSMENT.T.EVERYONE KNOWS YET BUT IT'S KIND OF YELLED THE ROOM WITHOUT BEING ABLE TO COMPARE WHAT IT WOULD COST TO DO IT OURSELVES AS BUYING A HOUSE.. WITH WHAT ACTUALLY DRAW SINCE RENTING THE HOUSE IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO OVER TWO BILLION DOLLAR DEAL IS ACTUALLY A COMPLETE GRIP WAS THEIR PERSONAL LIVES EVERYBODY KNOWS YOU GET A BETTER DEAL BY COMPARISON SHOPPING.G.WEWE ALSO KNOW THAT WHEN YOU HAVE A SHORT TERM RENTAL WITH AN OPTION TO BUY. LIKE THE CITY WITH EXCEL YOU DON'T RUSH INTO A LONG TERM LEASE BEFORE FIRST CONSIDERING OF BUYING THE HOUSE AT THE LOCAL POWER MIGHT BE A BETTER DEAL.L.PRETTY OBVIOUSSO THEHE QUESTION WHY ARE WE NOT EXERCISING THE SAME DUE DILIGENCE WITH MONEY THAT WE WERE THEIR OWN PERSONAL FINANCES ARE REALLY GOOD QUESTION..SOME CLAIM W WE

[199:00] CAN'T FINISH THE COURSE JUST DUE TO BUDGET CONSTRAINTS AND COLE DID THIS MIGHT SOUND LIKE A GOOD RATIONAL FOR SCRAP SCRAPPING LOCAL POWER.. WHAT IS MISSING HOWEVER IN SOME DISCUSSION HAS BEEN DONE IN THIS TONIGHT IS OUR ASSESSMENT CAN AND SHOULD BE DONE BECAUSE THE PRIVATELY FUNDED.D. AND I I MEAN NOT JUST LENDING MONEY WE CAN ACTUALLY GET MORE PEOPLE TO PUT MONEY UP FRONT TO ALL CAN SAY IS BEING DONE IN OTHER CITIES IN COLORADO.O. W WE ARE SURURE T E CONSIDERING THAT ONCE RAN JUST AS YOU KNOW STAFF IS WORKING ON THIS HAS BEEN DISCUSSED NIGHT.. IN DARFURUR WHO CAN ACTUALLY COVER NEAR TERM COSTS SUCH AS THIS HELPING US GET OVER THAT THE HUBS LONG TERM BENEFITS IF THIS PARTICULAR OUR AP DOESN'T WORK.K. WHAT'S BEEN DONE WILL ADDRESS ONE OF THESE GUYS ARE PUTTING IN BIDS PROBABLY AREN'T THAT EXCITED ABOUT WORKING WITH AN OUTFIT THAT CONSIDERING DOING A FRANCHISE ANYWAY IT'S A TOUGH SITUATION..I THINK WE CAN DEFINITELY GET SOME WORK

[200:00] AND SOUND BUSINESS MODEL THEY CAN MAKE MONEY ONE TERM BY HELPING US RETURN AND MILLIONS OF DOLLARS ARE GOING INTO.O. AREAS LIKE SOUTH DELTA MONTROSE AN OUTFIT CALLED HUGHES WAS ACTUALLY GIVING THEM A LOT OF BOOKS MILLIONS OF DOLLARS BECAUSE THEY KNOW THERE'S MONEY IN ONE TERM.. WHEN YOU GET THINGS SET UP.. A A COST ASSESSMENT FOR LOCAL POWER MUST BE COMPLETED BEFORE CONSIDERING ANYTHING ELSE AND THIS CAN BE DONE.E. AND EXPENSIVE FRANCHISE SHOULD NOT BE ON THE BALLOT BEFORE WE HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO PAIR WITH SOMETHING THAT COULD BE BETTER.ALSO PLEASE REMEMBER THE BIG PICTURE HERE.E.I KNOW EVERYONE'S TRYING TO THINK ABOUT A LOT OF NEAR TERM COSTS OF ITS NOSE CAN GET OVER THIS WAY PRIVATIZED HAS.. THIS CONNOTATION IS TOUGH IS A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE NOTED INCLUDING MORTGAGE YOU BROUGHT UP SOME VERY GOOD POINTS MORE BULLOCK. BUT TWO BILLION DOLLARS A LOT OF MONEY TO BE RISKING WITHOUT DUE DILIGENCE..I GUESS

[201:02] I'M A LITTLE TROUBLE SEEING WHAT'S BEING MISSED HERE ON OUT ONE AND THANKS FOR LISTENING AND GOOD LUCK WITH THIS TOUGH DECISION.

NUMBER TWO IN ANY CASE FOR THE FRANCHISE'S SEPARATE ISSUE FROM UNI..THERE

[202:03] ARE MANANY FINANCE ALL TURNS THAT YOU'VE HEARD ABOUT THAT HAVE NOT BEEN CONSIDERED XL IS ACTING NOW BECAUSE HE IS GETTING TOO CLOSE TO SUCCESS..

VET O OR REFERENDUM BEFORE REFERRING IT TO VOTERS THIS THE CITY COUNCIL THE WON'T UNDERSTAND THESE FRANCHISING DOCUMENTS ANY BETTER THAN YOU DO AND THEY'RE HIGHLY COMPLEX..THIS IS NOT DEMOCRACY THAT SLAP TOGETHER IN A RUSH FRUSTRATING REVIEW AND DEBATE IS NOT DEMOCRACY IT'S A DERELICTION OF DUTY BY THE

[203:00] COUNCIL.. NUMBER FOUR DON'T GIVE WAY OUR DEMOCRACY TO XL PRIVATE CORPORATION WITH NO DUTY TO OUR PEOPLE OR CITY DESPITE ALICE JACKSON'S ASSURANCES AS WAS MENTIONED SHE MAY BE GONE TOMORROW.W.THE CORPORATION MAY BE REQUIRED IS A LOT OF THINGS THAT COULD HAPPEN.N.THERE ARE NO FUNCTIONAL ARBOR OFF RAMPS IS AN ILLUSION..THERE ARE MANYNY FLAWS IN THIS IDEA THAT WILL PRESERVE OUR RIGHTS OR OPTIONS XL WILL LITIGATE EVERY INCH OF THE WAY WE KNOW THAT FROM EXPERIENCE.E.THANK YOU VERY MUCH SAM KATE LAWRENCE DAVID TAKASHI AND JACKIE GARDNER.R.SAMI YUSUF PLEASE THE ARMY NOW WE CAN THANK YOU AGAIN..I SUPPORT

[204:04] MEANINGFUL CARBON EMISSION REDUCTION MEASURES SOME OLDER RIDES ARE SAYING THAT THE COUNCIL SHOULD NOT RUSH AND SHOULD SLOW DOWN IN DETERMINING WHETHER VOTERS SHOULD HAVE A SAY IN DECIDING THE EXCEL PROPOSAL.L.I THINK WHETHER WE SHOULD SLOW DOWN OR NOT DEPENDS ON WHAT THE ULTIMATE OBJECTIVE IS IS THE END GOAL TO REDUCE CARBON EMISSIONS AS QUICKLY AND EFFECTIVELY AS POSSIBLE.. OR IS HAVING A CITY OWNED ELECTRIC MONOPOLY THE ULTIMATE OBJECTIVE IN EITHER CASE BOULDER CITIZENS ARE PERFECTLY CAPABLE OF EVALUATING THE MERITS OF THIS PROPOSAL.L. THE MISSION STATEMENT OF THE BOULDER DEPARTMENT OF CLIMATE INITIATIVES IS.S. TAKING BOLD INNOVATIVE AND COLLABORATIVE ACTIONS TO CREATE SYSTEMIC CHANGE THAT EQUITABLY ADDRESS IS THAT GLOBAL CLIMATE CRISIS AND ENSURES QUALITY OF LIFE IN BOULDER AND BEYOND.D.ININ

[205:06] CONTRAST THE MUNI IS AN UNREGULATED LAST CENTURY MONOPOLY THAT ISOLATES BOULDER IN THE PAST TEN YEARS THE MUNI EFFORT HAS ACCOMPLISHED ZERO CARBON EMISSION REDUCTION. WE CAN DO BETTER THAN S WE MUST DO BETTER THAN THIS.IT IS TIME TO PIVOT TO TWENTY FIRST CENTURY SOLUTIONS..I URGE THE COUNCIL TO PUT THE EXCEL PROPOSAL ON THE BALLOT.T. W WE COULD HAVE FAR GREATER IMPACT ON CARBON REDUCTION BY COLLABORATING WITH EXCEL AND PURSUING INNOVATIVE PROGRAMS.S. BUT BOULDER CITIZENS DECIDE IF THEY WANT MEANINGFUL CARBON EMISSION REDUCTION PROGRAMS WE CAN ACHIEVE OUR CLEAN ENERGY VISION WITHOUT BANKRUPTING OUR FUTURE.E.THANK YOU EDUCATE THE NEXEXT TAKASHI JACKIE GOLDBERG PETER MEYER IS A WAYAY OF THINKING ++MUSIC PLAYING;; NIGHT..I HAVE A STATEMENT PREPARED BUT WILL ASK SOME RHETORICAL QUESTIONS INSTEAD..FIRSRST OFF

[206:10] RAMPS WITH THE SPEED WITH WHICH DISRUPTIONS ARE OCCURRING.. THINK THE SPEED AND DEPTH OF COVE IN DISRUPTIONS OR THE BANKRUPTCY OF PGN HE WOULD AN ANNUAL OPT OUTS BE BOTH AN INCENTIVE FOR EXCEL TO PERFORM.. AND A A SAFETY VALVE FOR THIS COMMUNITY TO ACT AS SOME ADAPTIVE AGILITY.Y. SHOULD LOCAL CONTROL BECOME NECESSARY.. STOCK AND SHOULD THIS GO TO THE BALLOT.T. I IN E INTEREST OF A DIRECT DEMOCRACY AND CIVIL DISCOURSE.. WITITH EXCEL BE WILLING TO PARTICIPATE IN ASSEMBLIES OR TOWN HALLS WHICH SERVED TO HEAR FROM AND INFORM THE VOTING THE PUBLIC'S QUESTIONS HAVE NOT BEEN ADDRESSED TO DATE.E. AND WE ARE NOT CONFIDENT THAT THEY WILL BE IF YOU WISH TO BUILD TRUST..THIS WOULD GO A LONG WAY TOWARD NURTURING IT.T. FINALLY WHEN YOU CAST YOUR VOTE.E.CONSIDER THAT AS

[207:12] SUPPORTING VOTE MAY BE RAISING THE IRE OF DREAD OF THUNDER. I QUOTE YOU SAY YOU LOVE YOUR CHILDREN ABOVE ALL ELSE AND YET YOUR STEALING THEIR FUTURE IN FRONT OF HER VERY EYES.S.ARE YOU READY TO CONFRONT A PACKK OF ANGER IS THANK YOU DAVIDID MECH THREE AT JACKIE'S OLDER PETER MEYER AND HIS COURT..II SEEN JACKIE COLEMAN ARE IN THE MEETING.. JACKIE IF YOU'RE IN THE MEETING UNDER DIFFERENT NAMES THESE.. COMMENT TO ME IN THE QUEUE IN A BOX IN A CIRCLE BACKGROUND FOR YOU HERE ON THE PHONE AND NEED TO COMMUNICATE WITH EACH ON THE PHONE.E. YOU CAN TEXT ME AT SEVEN TWO OH NINE OH EIGHT

[208:00] FIVE SEVEN TO TWO OF THE WAY SAM I SUGGESTED GOING THERE WAS PETER THAT PETER MAYER HIS RECORD AND ALAN BERNSTEIN THEATRE..I CAN HEAR ME THAHAT GREAT EITHER SECURE MAYOR TONIGHT I AM SPEAKING ON BEHALF OF PLAN BOULDER COUNTY. BOULDER SPENT ABOUT TWENTY SIX MILLION DOLLARS FINE FOR THE NEW YEAR'S OVER THAT SAME TEN YEARS..EXCEL TOOK ABOUT TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTY MILLION DOLLARS IN PROFITS FROM SELLING ELECTRICITY IN BOULDER THAT MONEY COULD HAVE BEEN INVESTED IN OUR COMMUNITY CREATING JOBS IN CLEAN ENERGY. THE STAFF PRESENTATION COMPLETELY IGNORED THIS ASPECT..WHATAT ABOUT DEMOCRATIZATION PLAN BOULDER COUNTY BELIEVES CAN BUT COMBATING CLIMATE CHANGE IS THE SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT ISSUE CONFRONTING THE ENTIRE WORLD.. AND BOULDER HAS A RESPONSIBILITY TO LEAD ON THIS ISSUE.. PLANNER SUPPORTED THE CONCEPT OF CLEAN LOCAL POWER FROM THE VERY BEGINNING THROUGH THREE BALLOT MEASURES THERE IS DEMOCRACY FOR YOU. AND WE VIEW THE CURRENT PROPOSAL TO REVERSE COURSE AND VOTE ON A FRANCHISE DEAL WITH EXCEL TO BE LESS AND RUSH CAPITULATION.N.IT'S A BAD

[209:13] DEAL FOR BOULDER AND HE GIVES UP GROUND WE'VE GAINED OVER TEN YEARS OF MITIGATING LET US NOT BE A NATIONAL EXAMPLE OF CAPITULATION.. BOULDER'S EFFORTS ALONG WITH DRAMATIC CHANGES IN THE INDUSTRY TO PUSH EXCEL TOWARDS RENEWABLES THAT'S GREAT. BUT WE'D ALSO LIKE TO REINVEST THE PROFITS IN OUR OWN COMMUNITY AS TO FORT COLLINS COLORADO SPRINGS AND MANY OTHERS..FURTHERMORE THERE ARE MANY OTHER TRIBES ELECTRIC. PROVIDERS BESIDES EXCEL THAT ARE WILLING TO GIVE US A MUCH BETTER DEAL.L. A DEAL WHICH COULD INCLUDE THE DIRECT PATH TO THE ELEVATION WE NEED TO CONSIDER THE BIDS THAT BOULDER RECEIVED AND WE SHOULD LOOK CLOSELY.. W WE NEED TIME TO MAKE THIS CONSIDERATION.. COUNCIL SHOULD NOT WASTE THAT CONSIDERATION

[210:00] UPON THE VOTERS THERE IS NO RUSH WE CAN CONTINUE WITHOUT A FRANCHISE AGREEMENT FOR THE PAST EIGHT YEARS UNTIL WE GET THIS BRIGHT..THANK YOU VERY MUCH HERE NEXT SEASON SEEK OR ALAN BERNSTEIN AND JOHN RUSSELL IS AN.. HAIRYRY KATE THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE TO US IN THESE CHALLENGING TIMES FOR THE PRESENTATIONS TONIGHT IT WOULD BE TILL THE END WE HAVE GOOD FOLLOW UP QUESTIONS..HOWEVER I CONTINUE TO HAVE A GREAT CONCERN THE SPEED WHICH WERE DURING A PANDEMIC.C.I URGE YOU TO DEFER TO EXCEL FRANCHISE AGREEMENT NEXT YEAR..MYMY WEIGHT AT THAT TIME THE CITY WILL HAVE A FINAL PRICE FOR LOCAL POWER IN BOULDER VOTERS WILL BE ABLE TO MAKE AN INFORMED DECISION.N.THTHE MOST EFFECTIVE PATH FORWARD FOR MAJOR CLIMATE GOALS.. AS WE HEARD EARLIER TONIGHT THE CITY

[211:00] RECENTLY RECEIVED SEE BITS OF ITS RFP TO ENERGY PROVIDERS AND CREATIVE FINANCING IT WILL TAKE TIME TO ANALYZE THOSE BIDS.. FOR CITY COUNCIL YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO BOULDER CITIZENS IS TO PROVIDE US WITH THE COSTS AND BENEFITS OF LOCAL POWER AND ALSO TO WEIGH THAT AGAINST ANY FRANCHISE AGREEMENT..YOU CAN'T DO THAT NOW SEEM TO BE ABLE TO DO MORE NEXT YEAR.R. PLEASE CONSIDER IF YOU PUT THIS FRANCHISE WITH EXCEL THE BALLOT YOU WERE EFFECTIVELY ENDORSING.. CITIZENS COUNT ON THEIR ELECTED OFFICIALS TO DO DUE DILIGENCE ESPECIALLY IN A TIME WHEN MOST CITIZENS ARE PREOCCUPIED WITH CONCERNS RELATED TO THE PANDEMIC.. THAT MEANS THAT EACH OF YOU WOULD BE SENT TO THE ON TO THE COMPLEX FRANCHISE AND SETTLEMENT AGREEMENTS WINE BUT WINE INCLUDING THE ADDITIONAL UPDATE TERMS OF COMING IN.N. AND YOU HAVE NO DOUBT IT WILL ALLOW US TO REACH A CLIMATE GOALS OR RELIABILITY GOALS OR SEE SOMEBODY CALLS AS WELL AS THE BEST RATES FOR CITIZENS BECAUSE WHEN SOMEBODY GETS IT.T.THE AGREEMENT STANDS IT'S NOT GOING TO BE CHANGED IF YOU CAN SAY THAT PLEASE DON'T SETTLE FOR ITS GOOD ENOUGH.H.

[212:04] EXCEL HAS DELIVERED THE BEST AND OFFERS BEFORE THEY DID AS THEY DID IN TWENTY SEVENTEEN AND THEY WILL YET COME.E.WE COMETEN YEARS ON THIS EFFORT AS YOU KNOW IS LARGELY TAKEN THIS TIME BECAUSE OF SELLS ROADBLOCKS.S.PLEASESE LET US HE ENOUGH GEAR TO DETERMINE TRUE CLASS PLEASE TO.. ASSUME NEXT ALAN BERNSTEIN JOHN RUSSELL AND RANDALL ERICA CLARK FOUND THE VERY YOUNG CAN HEAR ME OK YOU CAN CLEAR THE WAY THE EVENING THANKS FOR ALL YOUR IT SEEMS TO ME.E.THE AGREEMENT HAS SEVERAL FEATURES THAT MANY FOLKS FIND ATTRACTIVE..

[213:02] OTHERS FEEL THE IMPORTANT ELEMENTS OF THE AGREEMENT FALLS SHORT AND CLEAR FROM ALL THE COMMENTARY.Y. BUT IN MY VIEW THIS ISS OF COURSE THAT IS THE VERY NATURE OF A NEGOTIATED AGREEMENT.T. REAEAL QUESTION TO ME IS WILL CITY COUNCIL ALL THE CITIZENS OF BOULDER VOTE ON WHETHER OR NOT TO ADOPT THE AGREEMENT.. THE ALTERNATIVE IS FOR COUNCIL THE SAYING NO YOU MAY NOT VOTE ON THIS I AM STRUGGLING TO GRASP THE CONCEPT AND SAY YOU MAY NOT GO WELL.L.COUNCILMEMBER HAVE TO BELIEVE TO REFUSE TO LET US POSE PERHAPS YOU MIGHT THINK YOU KNOW WHAT IS GOOD FOR US AND YOU DO NOT TRUST US TO BOW PROPERLY.Y.PERHAPS YOU MIGHT THINK THE MAYOR AND MAYOR PRO TEM SHOULD GO BACK TO THE NEGOTIATING TABLE AND GET A BETTER DEAL.. EVEN

[214:01] THOUGH THERE IS NO REASON TO BELIEVE THAT IS EVEN POSSIBLE IN LIFE.E. O OR PERHAPS YOU MIT HAVE MADE UP THEIR MINDS REGARDLESS OF WHAT ANYONE ELSE THINKS.. OR SIMPLY INSISTING THAT WE CONTINUE TO PURSUE THE MUNI.. I IS SO THIS WOULD BE INSPIRED OR BE UNDERSTANDING ALL ALONG. THAT THE CITIZENS WOULD VOTE ON WHETHER OR NOT TO CONSIDER PURSUING THE MUNI WHICH BY THE WAY IS EXACTLY WHAT ALLOWING THIS WOULD ACCOMPLISH BOTH..YES IFIF YOU WANT TO ACCEPT.T. ORR DON'T KNW CONTINUE TO PURSUE THE MUNI.. I HOPE AND SUSPECT THAT NONE OF THE THREE ALTERNATIVES I JUST LISTED ARE TRUE.E. THEHE OBVIOUS RIGHT THING TO DO IS TO LET THE CITIZENS OF BOULDER THE SIZE OF THOSE VOTING IN NOVEMBER THANKS TO THE NEXT JOHN RUSSELL RANDALL CLARK AND JOE BRAND.. NEW YEAR MAY BE CAN THE YESES O ON RUSSL

[215:00] ROAD AND BOULDER FOR TWENTY YEARS..PLEASE DO NOT PUT THE FRANCHISE TO HER ABOUT THE RAPIDLY INCREASING GLOBAL WARMING IS EXTREMELY DESIRABLE..II SHOULD BEBE THEHE NATURAL GAS IS A GREENHOUSE GAS AND METHANE.. GIVEN HIS HISTORY I REALLY DO NOT TRUSTING SOUL AND I VERY MUCH FAVOR IN A STABILIZATION. I WOULD LIKE THE CITY COUNCIL CAN CONNECT THE THERE WAS THE ENERGY OR ANOTHER SUCH ORGANIZATION OTHER THAN EXCEL..ASAS CHIEF SEATTLE MAY R

REVIEW THE RFP IS AND CONTINUE WITH THE MUNICIPAL STATION AFTER WHICH WE'VE ALREADY VOTED FOR AND IT WAS AGREED THAT IT WOULD HAVE TO MEET CERTAIN CRITERIA BEFORE WOULD BE ACCEPTED ANYWAY.Y.I'VE SUPPORTED ME IN

[217:00] THIS POSITION OF OUR POWER SYSTEM FROM ITS INCEPTION.. AND IT WAS EXCITING AND I ENTIRELY SUPPORT OF THE COLD HAVING A COMMUNITY POWER SYSTEM IT REPRESENTS THE VALUES I MOVED TO BOULDER FOR.. IT WOULD BEBE A A NON PRT POWER SYSTEM WHICH I SUPPORT AND I THINK BOULDER WOULD BE VERY PROUD TO HAVE.E. EVERY CHAIN MORE MONEY IN OUR COMMUNITY AND WITH LOUD US AND USED TO BE THE DECISION MAKERS ABOUT OUR POWER THESE THINGS WOULD NOT BE TRUE IF WE PURSUE THE FRANCHISE AGREEMENT WITH ITSELF..WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO ABANDON THE MUNI NOW WITH RFP SITTING ON YOUR DESK AFTER ALL THE HARD WORK AND GIVE THOSE TO SELL IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE TO ME.E.WEWE VOTED FOR ME TO STABILIZATION AND WE DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO VOTE AGAIN WE'VE ALREADY VOTED FOR ARE JUST WAITING TO HEAR WHAT'S GOING TO COST. AND THEN WE CAN COMPARE IT TO OTHER OFFERS.S.MY FAILURES OF THE

[218:04] VALUES OF PLAN BOULDER COUNTY.Y. BOULDER CLEAN ENERGY FUTURE AND LESLIE PLASTERING.G. ALL OF WHOM ARE TIRELESS IN HIS POSITION AT THE CENTER OF THE DATA AND THE FACTS AND THE DOWNSIDES OF GOING WITH THIS FRANCHISE AGREEMENT.T.

FIRSTST COURT HEARING ABOUT A LOT OF CONCERNS BUT WHAT REALLY STRIKES ME IS IS ALMOST NO CONTENTS IS THE TIX.. IN THE

[219:00] ENERGY PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT IS IMPORTANT DATA NICE GOLDEN INTERESTING PROJECT IDEAS BUT MOSTLY IT SEEMS LIKE THE FRANCHISE WOULD GIVE THAT SELL ONE.E. THING IT WAS BASED ON HOPE FILLED PLATE NICE AND WORKING OUT DETAILS AND I DON'T SEE OUR HISTORY JUSTIFIES THAT WILL BUILD TRUST SO FAR I.. WILL COMPROMISE SHAREHOLDER INTEREST IN ANY WAY THAT THEY HAVEN'T SPECIFICALLY COMMITTED TO NEVER DO.O.THTHE IDEA THAT HE COULD ALWAYS BE RESUMED AFTER AN OFF RAMP. ++MUSIC PLAYING;;; KNONOW IT'S TECHNICALLY TRUE BUT MOSTLY MISLEADING.G.IT'S ONE THING TO REDUCE FUNDING DURING A BUDGET DURING HIS BUDGET CRUNCH BUT IT'S ANOTHER ZERO AFTER YEARS BEFORE POSSIBLE OUT.. B BY THTHE STAFF GATHERSO THE WIND IN RESUMPTION IS PRETTY UNREALISTIC.C. AND THIRD HOW MANY OF YOU GUYS ARE THINKING THIS WAY BUT THE NOTION THAT COUNCIL IS JUST LETTING THE VOTERS THIS I THINK RACHEL. IS TRUTH TO THAT BUT IT SEEMS LIKE A BIT OF A COP OUT..MOST PEOPLE YOU

[220:07] HEAR FROM ++MUSIC PLAYING;; ET-CETERA.. A LOT OF ATTENTION THIS STUFF. BUT COMPLEX STUFF AND FOR MOST VOTERS IT'S AN AWFULLY SHORT WINDOW TO SORT THROUGH AND MOST WILL BE PREOCCUPIED WITH OTHER MATTERS ELECTION WITH A REALLY COLD RELATED AND LARGELY RELYING ON YOU.U.SOSO WHILE VOTERS WOULD DECIDE THE FINAL OUTCOME I HOPE YOU ARE FULLY OWNING THE DECISION ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT IT'S BEEN THROUGH ENOUGH FOR PRIMETIME..PERSONALLY I DON'T THINK SO.O.THANKS JOEOEIT'S WEIRD..CACAN N AA CHRISTIAN A E HIGH AND DANTE ARE HERS.S.THTHE JAMMY JAM INN THEHE MAINSTREAM

[221:00] CHRISTIAN FANATIC AND HAS ISSUED A SENSE I GUESS CLOSE TO THE BEGINNING.. WHEHEN HE WN THIS ON YOU KNOW HER LISTING MAY NOT KNOW IS THAT I DID MARKETING FOR THE ORIGINAL OCCUPATION TAX AND TWENTY TEN.THE AIM OF WHICH WAS LET'S KEEP OUR OPTIONS OPEN..I WAS OPEN TO NEW MUNICIPAL IS A SHAME THAT I WAS ALSO A CCA ADVOCATED THE TIME.E. W WE CAN CONVINCE XL TO DO SOMETHING THAT CAN APPLIED TO THEIR TERRITORY WHY AND I ARE IN COLORADO. THAT WOULD BE A REALLY GREAT THING AND DOESN'T THINK THAT THIS IS I THINK THAT FOR COUNCIL MEMBERS..I THINK BACK EVEN THOUGH THERE'S A LOT OF REALLY PASSIONATE PEOPLE I KNOW A LOT OF THEM.. YOU'RE NOT SEEING A REALLY GOOD CROSS SECTION OF BOULDER RIGHT NOW YOU'RE SEEING PEOPLE THAT ARE UNDERSTANDABLY UPSET AT THE IDEA THAT THEY'RE THERE..YOYOU DREAM OF MISSILES NATION MAY NOT BE THERE BUT I THINK WE HAVE TO CHOOSE THE VALUES THAT IS BEYOND BOULDER.R.NONOTT

[222:06] ONLY BECAUSE THE PILOTS AND INNOVATION WHICH SOME OF THE BITS THAT EVERYONE'S TALKING ABOUT COULD POTENTIALLY APPLY TO BUT THE FACT IS.. THE KIND OF INNOVATION THAT BOULDER COULD PILOT.. SCALE QUICKLY T O OTHER COMMUNITIES AND FINELY EXXON BELIEVE ME I'VE BEEN WORKING SO HARD BEHIND THE SCENES FOR ALL THIS TIME.E. TRYING TO GET SOME YOU KNOW VERY YOU KNOW POWERFULLY INNOVATIVE OPTIONS THAT COULD BE MORE LIKE OFF THE SHELF OR OTHER CITIES.S.HERE'S THE OPPORTUNITY AND THERE'S A LOT OF CREATIVITY AHEAD FOR ALL THE PEOPLE ON THIS CALL THAT THEY COULDN'T GAUGE..I ALSO THINK TIME IS NOW TO ENGAGE THE UCA HAS BEEN INVOLVED IN PROCEEDINGS WHERE WE'RE ++MUSIC PLAYING;; WITH INNOVATIVE GRADE ISSUES.. ANDND D AREN'T DISTRIBUTED ENERGY RESOURCES LIKE STORAGE AND MICRO GRANTS THE TIME TO ENGAGE FOR THE CITY IS NOW LET'S GET WITH IT..AARON REARDON WHILE JON SCHEYER AND ROBERT WEST BE WRONG IN

HERERE AND THE NEXT SPEAKERS JOHN MAYER WHO WAS WHO I READ TWO OTHER PEOPLE UNDER HIM A GALLON MORE..ALALLL HE COULD JUST WANDER IN HERE AND HAVE MORMON AND ALL I SEE THE HERE AND THEY BOTH MEAN THE WILL OF THEIR TIME I.. HEARD OF JOHN YOU HAVE FOUR MINUTES.. THEHE GREAT MARE WEAVER AND CITY COUNCIL WHERE I WAS HAVING A HEATED YET CIVIL CONVERSATION THE OTHER NIGHT WITH OUR BOO BOO ON THE OTHER NIGHT I WAS.. THERE WE GO WITH A FRIEND WHO HAS BEEN A LEADER IN THE EFFORT TO MINCE PIES BOULDERS ELECTRIC SYSTEM REGARDING THE PROPOSED SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT.T. B BY

[224:05] FRIENDLY DOWN TO COACH AN ARGUMENT FOR CONTINUING TO MARCH TOWARD CONDEMNING SELLS ELECTRIC SYSTEM PLEADING THEIR CASE FOR THE VISION OF AN INDEPENDENT LOCALLY CONTROLLED ELECTRIC SYSTEM.M.IT'S A WONDERFULLY COMPELLING VISION THAT IS NOT THE DECISION BEFORE CITY COUNCIL TONIGHT.. WHEN THE BOULDER CHAMBER ARGUED AGAINST CONTINUING THE PURSUIT OF BUSINESS POSITION WE CAN REST ON CONCERNS REGARDING THE ABILITY OF OUR CITY TO OPERATE ELECTRIC SYSTEM. WE KNOW MANY COMMUNITIES EFFECTIVELY OPERATE THEIR OWN ELECTRIC POWER SYSTEMS AT REASONABLE RATES WITH SOUND RELIABILITY.Y. THIS IS NOT GOOD STUFF..INSTEAD THE BOULDER CHAMBER PRIMARILY ARGUED THAT THE PROCESS OF PURSUING THE VISION OF AN INDEPENDENT ELECTRIC UTILITY WOULD BE A LONG EXPENSIVE RISKY. AND WOULD HINDER OUR ABILITY TO MAKE OTHER GREEN ENERGY ADVANCEMENTS BASED ON THAT PRINCIPLE.E.OUOUR POLICY

[225:01] DOCUMENTS STATES QUOTE WE ENCOURAGE XL IN THE CITY OF BOULDER TO PURSUE ALL POSSIBLE AVENUES FOR NEGOTIATED RESOLUTION IS CONSISTENT WITH BOULDERS CLEAN ENERGY GOALS.S. AS WE STAND HERE TODAY TEN YEARS SINCE THE INITIAL VOTE TO PURSUE ME THIS POLARIZATION.. THE CITY OF BOULDER HAS BEEN ENGAGED IN NOTHING SHORT OF A PITCH BATTLE WITH ITSELF.F. THE CONSEQUENCES OF THAT BATTLE HAS BEEN SIGNIFICANT FOR COMMUNITY AND MUCH AS THE BOULDER CHAMBER FEAR WITH THE LAST FOCUS ON OTHER GREEN ENERGY. ENERGY EQUITY AND CLIMATE PROTECTION OPPORTUNITIES AND THE EXPENDITURE OF SOMETHING NEAR THIRTY MILLION DOLLARS.MAYBE THERE'S BEEN GAMES TOO.O.SOME ARGUE THAT THE CITY OF BOULDER'S MUNICIPAL IS A SIAN AFTER QUEST XL ENERGY TO HIGHER STANDARDS OF CARBON REDUCTION IN GREEN ENERGY PERFORMANCE WE WILL NEVER KNOW.W. WHAT WE DO KNOWOW I IST TWO OF OUR BOULDER CITY COUNCIL LEADERS.. ARE SAM

[226:02] WEAVER AND MAYOR PRO TEM BOB GATES WITH THE AUTHORIZATION OF THEIR COUNCIL PEERS MADE THE HIKE THE HARDEST PART PARTNERSHIP OVERTURE L LEADERSHIP ORGANIZATION BOULDER CHAMBER ENCOURAGED.D. APPROPRIATELY THEY TOOK THAT STEP AT A TIME WHEN NO ONE IS CERTAIN HOW ALL THE LAWSUITS AND CONDEMNATION ACTIONS WILL TURN OUT.T. WHEN BOTH BOULDER AND XL STILL HAVE THE LEVERAGE OF THAT UNCERTAINTY TO NEGOTIATE IN GOOD FAITH.. THE FRUITS OF THEIR OVERTURES FOR OUR MARRIAGE AND PRO TOWN MAYOR PRO TEM OF THE ELEMENTS OF THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT THAT CITY COUNCIL HAS A CHANCE TO.. TONIGHT TO PLACE ON THE NOVEMBER BALLOT ON ITS FACE AGREEMENT SEEMS TO BE A POSITIVE STEP FORWARD FOR OUR ECONOMY OUR COMMUNITY AND OUR CLIMATE..THERE WILL BE PLENTY OF TIME TO DEBATE THE MERITS OF THIS AGREEMENT THOUGH OVER THE NEXT TWO PLUS MONTHS.S.I KNOW THERE WILL BE THOUGHTFUL DEBATE OVER MULTIPLE ZOOM CALLS AMONG THE BOULDER CHAMBER POLICY LEADERS.S. TONIGHT THOUGH WE ASK YOU TO HONOR THE GOOD FAITH EFFORTS OF OUR CITY COUNCIL LEADERS..

[227:02] XL MANAGEMENT AND THE HARD WORK OF BOTH STAFF TEAMS TO END THE RE HER MOVE.E. FORWARD TOGETHER AS PARTNERS TO FOCUS ON THE CARBON RISING ELECTRIC SYSTEM AND SAVE OUR PLANET AND NOW IT'S TIME TO GIVE THE BOULDER VOTERS A CHANCE TO WEIGH IN. I KNOW THE FRIEND I TALKED ABOUT EARLIER.SOMEONE WHO ONCE SAT IN YOUR CITY COUNCIL SEATS..THEN MY YEAR FOR THE NEXT SEVENTY FIVE DAYS WITH HER VISION OF A LOCALLY CONTROLLED POWER SYSTEM.M.I ALSO KNOW THERE ARE OTHER VOTERS WILL FIND EVEN MORE CERTAIN VISION FOR ACHIEVING OUR COMMUNITIES CLEAN ENERGY CLIMATE PROTECTION GOALS OF THE PROPOSED SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT..FINALLY I'M CERTAIN THAT OUR BUSINESS COMMUNITY MEMBERS WILL HAVE PARTISANS ON BOTH SIDES OF THE DEBATE THAT'S WHAT JAY PARKER SHE LOOKS LIKE AN OLDER AGE AND ARE NOVEMBER FOUR.R.WEWE WILL E WHERE OUR COMMUNITY STANDS ALL JOHN.N.

[228:18] NEXT WE HAVE EVER WEST BE TOWERS AND KK DUE TO A RUBBER PLEASE RESET THE CLOCK AND WAS DRESSED IN MY TENURE SELL THE THE ROBBER WEST BE THERE IN YOURSELF.F.II TRIED I HEAR FOR YOURSELF STEP AWAY FROM THE BUTTONS ARE CONTRADICTING EACH OTHER NOT AMUSED EVEN GET YOUNGER LET THE AIR..THTHEE YES WE CAN HEAR YOU A A MERRY SOME COUNCIL MEMBERS BOB LESTER RETIRED SENIOR MANAGEMENT AT THE NATIONAL RENEWABLE ENERGY LABORATORY.Y.MYMY MESSAGE TONIT

[229:02] IS I BELIEVE.. THIS CONSUL TO LIBERATION ARE MISSING A CRITICAL CONSIDERATION BOULDER IS FACING A SEVERE AND SUSTAINED FINANCIAL CRISIS ATTRIBUTABLE TO THE VIRUS HAVE TO MAKE.E. SMALL BUSINESS SECTOR AND SECTORS OF BOULDER'S POPULATION ARE FACING PARTICULARLY DEVASTATING AND LONG LASTING FINANCIAL HARDSHIPS IT WOULD BE A MISTAKE TO UNDERESTIMATE THEIR SINCERITY OF THESE HARDSHIPS.. OPERATIVE QUESTION WE NEED TO HAVE IN FRONT OF US IS THE IS THE STABILIZATION OR EXCEL THE BEST PATH FORWARD TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE.E. I I BELIEVE THE CASE CAN BE MADE THAT CONSOLIDATION WOULD SERVE AS AN ECONOMIC ENGINE IS SIGNIFICANTLY MITIGATE THE CURRENT FINANCIAL CRISIS.S. MOVING FORWARD WITH MEANINGFUL ADDITION CAPTURE SIGNIFICANT DIRECT INDIRECT AND INDUCED FINANCIAL BENEFITS FOR THE ECONOMY OF BOULDER.R.THERE ARE TWO PRINCIPAL DIRECT FINANCIAL BENEFIT SCRAPPED CAPTURED..

[230:07] CIVILIZATION BOWLERS MORE AGGRESSIVE TRANSITION TO RENEWABLES WOULD RESULT IN LOWER UTILITY RATES.. BASED ON THE BEST BID OF TWENTY EIGHTEEN RFID THERE COULD BE A SAVINGS OF OVER THIRTY MILLION DOLLARS A YEAR.R. T TOO CAUSATION WOULD EXTRICATE BOULDER RATEPAYERS FROM THE IMPACT OF RATE INCREASES THAT SELLS PLANS TO SPEND SEVEN POINT FIVE BILLION NEXT FIVE YEARS.. OLD I IS PARART OF THAT PORTION OF THAT WOULD BE THREE HUNDRED MILLION.. THERE ARE SIGNIFICANT ASSOCIATED IN DIRECT BENEFITS THE INDIRECT BENEFIT DOLLARS PAID OFF AND RE CIRCULATE IN THE BOULDER ECONOMY.. ANDND RESULT IN A MULTIPLIER OF THREE POINT ONE THIS IS A INVESTMENT IN DOLLARS ECONOMY IN CLOSING I BELIEVE THE COUPLE AS A FINANCIAL SHARE RESPONSIBILITY.Y. TO GO FORWARD

[231:05] WITH THE CIVILIZATION URGE TO CONSOLE A CONTROLLER CONTROLS AND TAKE A STEP FORWARD TOWARDS ECONOMIC RECOVERY SAID AND POWERS TO DETAIN AND I AND DONE TO THEM EVERYONE.E. THANK YOU VERY MUCH I WANT TO THANK YOU ALL FOR THE AMOUNT OF WORK THAT'S BEEN PUT INTO THIS COMPLEX AND EVOLVING DOCUMENT.T.BUT REALLY THE BROADER EFFORTS TO FIND WHERE THERE CAN BE COMPROMISE BETWEEN THE CITY ITSELF IS POWERFULLY ENCOURAGING TO ME AND MAKES ME REFLECT ON.. HOW ABOUT TWELVE YEARS AGO BACK WHEN I WAS A YOUNG MAN AND THE CONVERSATION GOT STARTED ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT WE SHOULD EVEN.. TO THE FRANCHISE WITH EXCEL WAS VERY INTERESTED AND BECAME INVOLVED IN THOSE DISCUSSIONS AND DEBATES MANY OF YOU KNOW AT THE TIME I WAS WORKING AT THE BOULDER CHAMBER OF COMMERCE..HAVING FOLLOWED ON FROM MY EDUCATION AT UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO BOULDER IN ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION IN THE POLLS TO WORK.WE'VE GOTTEN STARTED WITH.H.THERERE WAS NOTOT DEBATG

[232:10] THE VISION THAT THE CITY AND SET OUT BUT REALLY QUICKLY GETTING INTO THE HOW HOW DO YOU ACTUALLY ACHIEVE THE DECOMPOSITION VISION THAT BOULDER HAS SET OUT FOR ITSELF.F.THE THING TO TEN YEARS LATER HIVE IN HEARING PEOPLE DESCRIBE HOW THE VOTE THAT COULD GO TO THE PEOPLE.E. IS BOTH A MIX OF RUSHING INTO THINGS AND SOMEHOW TOO COMPLEX FOR VOTERS TO CONSIDER.R. I ISS A A BIT FLABBERGASTED AND I WANT TO KEEP THIS MORE ON A POSITIVE VOTE AND ENCOURAGE YOU TO CONSIDER THE VOTERS CAN DECIDE ON THIS.S. TRULY WE ARE WORKING ON TEN YEARS' WORTH OF SPENDING MONEY.. AND I I WATCH THE TREND LINES WITH EXILES IMPACTS ADD SCALE TO THE CARBON IS HAPPENING WHILE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS OF UNSPENT BY THE CITY OF BOULDER TO STILL BE.E. TRYING TO HAMMOND HALL WHETHER OR NOT THEY ACTUALLY MAKE THIS AGREEMENT THAT'S ON THE TABLE NOW AND PUT IT TOWARDS THE VOTERS.S.IT'S

[233:04] REALLY NOT ABOUT THE PARTICULAR DETAILS RIGHT NOW IF YOU CAN TRUST STAFF FOR WHAT THEY BROUGHT FORTH ALREADY KNOW WHY YOU WOULD THINK THAT MORE TIME WOULD BE WORTHWHILE.E.PLEASE PUT THIS TO THE VOTERS AND TRUST ARE EDUCATED CITIZENRY BE CAKE IS A BAND ON TO AND CHRISTOPHER THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR TIME TONIGHT..THTHE I I DT THINK THE IMAGE OF A PACK OF ANGRY FANS WEARING A DON'T YOU..

GAGEE CORPORATIONS ALWAYS SEEM TO ME AND THREE STRONGEST ARGUMENTS AND HEARING FOR ENTERING A TWENTY YEAR FRANCHISE WITH EX OUR BOND.D. IS FOR TENDERS TO WE HAVEN'T GOTTEN ANYTHING FOR

[234:00] THIRTY MILLION DOLLARS HAS ARRESTED THREE.E. RETIRED AND ADDRESSED EACH OF THE YES VOTERS AT THIS FOR TEN YEARS THAT'S BECAUSE XL WAS WEIRD AND OBSTRUCTING PROGRESS IN EVERY STEP WAS JACKSON ANSWER COUNCIL.. QUESTIONS ABOUT THE EFFECTS OF SHAREHOLDERS GET A SETTLEMENT SHE FORGOT TO MENTION THAT FOR JUST A YEAR AND HALF THE PROFITS FROM BOULDER..THEY MAY BE ABLE TO GUARANTEE THAT THEY KEEP HER IN THE GROUP AND THAT THEY WON'T LISTEN TO ANOTHER PROVIDER WHICH OTHER. OTHER CITIES ACROSS THE STATES GETTING HIGHER PERCENT OF THE ASTRONAUTS AND OTHER PROVIDERS..II HAVE EXISTING PROVIDERS UNTIL THE RFP RESULTS WE CAN'T KNOW HER AND BE AGILE AND FASTER RESULTS TOO..YEYES VOTERS GOT SOMETHING FOR THIRTY DOLLARS CHANGE COMES WITH PRESSURE IN THE PRIORITIES FOR ANOTHER CITY ABOUT CLIMATE NO DOUBT A SIGNIFICANT ROLE IN EXILES RECENT VERSION TO.. EMBRACE IT WHILE IT WAS AFTER DECADES OF BEING DIFFERENT ABOUT ITS IMPACT ON THE MOVIE OR SELLING FOSSIL FUEL POWER PLANTS.S. WHEN THEY WERE TIRED

T TO NOT EXPLORE THE BENEFITS ARE NUMEROUS OTHER ENERGY OPTIONS IS AN INSULT TO THE BILL PAYER.

[239:00] WOULD BE BETTER THAN RUSHING INTO A MORE EXPENSIVE OPTION TO STEAL.L. OUR LIVES WILL STILL GO ON OUR POWER WILL STILL COME WE WILL BE FORCED TO PAY MORE THAN WE ALREADY DO WE SPEND OVER A HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS YEAR ON ENERGY.Y.WEWE HAVE THE RIGHT TO SEE HIM TRULY DISCUSS WHAT OTHER OPTIONS ARE AVAILABLE TO US AS A MEMBER OF THE BOULDER COMMUNITY..I WANT TO BE PROUD OF OUR LOCAL ELECTED OFFICIALS WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY HERE TO BE LEAD BY EXAMPLE.

TO WRITE ABOUT BEING SKEPTICAL OF THIS.. ARE SERIOUS ABOUT CORRECTING FOR THE WAITER ENERGY SYSTEM CURRENTLY PERPETUATES INEQUALITIES WITHIN AND OUTSIDE OF OUR CITY.Y. SHOULD ASK OURSELVES IS AN INVESTOR OWNED MONOPOLY REGULATED BY A FARAWAY HIGHLY UNSTABLE STATE LEVEL BUREAUCRACY OR LIKELY RESPONSES THE NEEDS OF VULNERABLE SEGMENTS OF OUR COMMUNITY.. NON PROFIT UTILITY ACCOUNTABLE TO NEIGHBORHOOD LEVEL CITIZEN ADVISORY BOARDS BE MORE POISED TO DELIVER A FUTURE OF ENERGY EQUITY.Y.

THE RUSH IS AN ARTIFICIALLY INDUCED AND HAS LED TO AN AGREEMENT AS MANY FLAWS FLAWS AND HAVE NOT BEEN SUBSTANTIALLY ADDRESSED BY CITY COUNCIL AND STAFF.. BOULDER VOTERS SHOULD NOT BE EXPECTED TO VOTE ON THE MERITS OF A FRANCHISE WITH EXCEL UNTIL WE HAVE THE FULL PICTURE OF WHAT IT WILL COST US LIES..

TO CLIMATE CRISIS IS RAVAGING THE STATE WITH WILDFIRES AND DROUGHTS WILL RECORD TEMPERATURES STORMS AND SEA LEVEL RISE RABBITS ARE PLANNING.G. FOR A A DECADE THOUSANDS OF THREE FIFTY MEMBERS OF BYRD'S BOULDER LEADERS TO ADDRESS THE CLIMATE CRISIS AND TRANSITION TO ONE HUNDRED PERCENT RENEWABLE ENERGY.Y.WEWE BELIEVE THE ASSOCIATION HOLDS THE GREATEST POTENTIAL FOR THAT GOAL OR SEIZE TWENTY EIGHTEEN REQUESTS FOR INDICATIVE PRICING FOR A JC RESULTED IN SEVERAL BIDS TO PRESENT.. EIGHTY NINE PERCENT RENEWABLES BY TWENTY TWENTY FOUR AND SIGNIFICANTLY MORE AFFORDABLE RATES IN EXCEL RECENT HIRES THESE ARE SIMILARLY PROMISING..WE URGE CITY COUNCIL TO NOT PLACE A TWENTY YEAR FRANCHISE WITH EXCEL ON THE BALLOT WHICH IMPLIES YOUR ENDORSEMENT.T.

[247:05] WOULD PREMATURELY WALKER COMMUNITY'S EFFORTS FOR DESTABILIZATION WHICH WILL WRITE AND ENDORSE FOR YEARS WITH A REPEATED VOTES AND TAX DOLLARS.. FRANCHISE WOULD SEVERELY LIMIT THE OPTIONS ARE JUST MUTUAL SYNERGY EXCELS PRIMARY GOAL IS NOT ADDRESSING THE CLIMATE CRISIS HEALTH OR EQUITY OR AFFORDABLE CLEAN ENERGY..ITS GOAL IS FOR BOOSTING SHAREHOLDERS' PROFITS WHICH CONFLICTS WITH OUR CITY'S SCHOOLS.. EXCEL CLASS OF FOSSIL FUELS AND ENERGY MIX FOR DECADES FOR POWER GENERATION AND DELIVERY OF METHANE LEAKING FACT GAS AS PART OF THIS FRANCHISE.. FRACKING IS POISONING OUR COMMUNITIES ESPECIALLY LOW INCOME COMMUNITIES OF COLOR IS CONTRIBUTING FORTY PERCENT OF POLLUTION CAUSING RF GREAT AIR QUALITY SIGNIFICANTLY EXACERBATING CLIMATE CRISIS. ARE NOW ESTIMATES FACT EMISSIONS FROM METHANE ARE TO FOUR TIMES HIGHER THAN OUR STATE'S CURRENT ESTIMATES.. NONE OF THIS IS ADDRESSED IN ITSELF PLANS AND ALSO GAS FRANCHISE WILL ENSURE WE'RE PART OF PERPETUATING THESE PROBLEMS.S. OUR COMMUNITY DESERVES TO THE NUMBERS ORGANIZATION BEFORE TYING OURSELVES TO EXCEL FOR TWENTY YEARS OLD AS THE CLIMATE LEADER DESERVES THE BEST OPTION TO CHOOSE AN

[248:00] AFFORDABLE ONE HUNDRED PERCENT RENEWABLE ENERGY FUTURE.E.PLEASE DON'T RUSH THIS DECISION DURING A PANDEMIC OLDER CAN GET BETTER.R.THANK YOUNEXT WE HAVE DAVID KLEIN HAD HEALED AND RUBS THE BELLY THE BABY CRYING IN THE MEDIA.A.

S SOO YEAH I I THINK TS A RUSH DECISION AND IT SHOULD NOT GO TO THE BALLOT THAT.. WOULD PUT THE COMMUNITY UNDER THE THUMB OF A BAD ACTOR THIS IS A HUGE COMMITMENT WITH TWENTY YEAR FRANCHISE TAG..

[249:06] SHE'S JUST NOT RUSH INTO THROWING XL A RATHER HUGE BONE HERE VOTER CAN DO BETTER THAN OFFERS OF EIGHTY NINE PERCENT RENEWABLE. FOR BETTER RATES GET AN ON THE COSTS OF THOSE PROPOSALS ANALYZE THE R P'S GET BETTER.R.D OH PROBABLY MUCH BETTER DEAL THAN THEY ARE OFTEN OFFERING INCENTIVES.S.HE'S BEEN OFFERED OTHER COMMUNITIES THAT COULD OFFER MAY BE SOME TRANSITION COST HELP..THAT'S REALISTIC HELP WITH ENERGY EFFICIENCY PROGRAMS AND WITH THESE TYPES OF THINGS..THE LOSSSS OF FUNDIG TO THE CITY DUE TO THE PANDEMIC SEEMS A LOT LESS VALID A REASON TO FORGO MUNICIPAL IS A SIAN.N. D DE CARMEN IS A SIAN ISSUES WITH GETTING OFF OF GAS FRACKING GAS WITH EXCEL.L.THEYEY WANT TO HANG ONTO THAT MAKE IT TOUGH TO MAINTAIN SOME NOVELISTS TO ADDRESS CLIMATE CHANGE.E.FOFOR

[250:11] EXAMPLE YOU CAN HAVE BIG ENERGY EFFICIENCY SAVINGS IN NEXT GENERATION GOOD EFFICIENT BUILDINGS WHICH WOULD WANT SOME GOOD COOPERATION.. HAS BENEFITS BEYOND RENEWABLE OTHER ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS THAT TO BE GAINED IN ADDITION TO THINGS LIKE RESILIENCY OPERATIONS AND GOOD SERVICES ARE JUST CARS DON'T GIVE THE VOTERS VOTE.. MANY TIMES AND THE US AND IT'S NOT A REASON TO IGNORE COSTS AND REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS..CAMDENEN AND EMA CAMPAIGN PROBLEMS ARE LESS OF A CONCERN TO THE OTHER SIDE IT'S VERY DIFFICULT TO RESTART EFFORTS THE SET IN.

CONSIDERING A NEW FRANCHISE AGREEMENT WITH EXCEL.L.IT SEEMS IMPORTANT TO ME TO REALIZE THAT XL WAS PART OF SERVICE CORPORATION A LARGE COMPANY WHOSE FIRST PRIORITY IS MAXIMIZING PROFITS FOR STOCKHOLDERS.S.ITIT DOES NOT SM WISE TO ME QUICKLY TURN CONTROL OF BOULDER'S POWER WHY XL FOR YEARS TO COME. THERE ARE POTENTIALLY BETTER OPTIONS..GUZMANAN ENERGY FOR

[252:07] EXAMPLE IS A WHOLESALE POWER SUPPLIER THAT IS WORKING WITH VARIOUS COMMUNITIES AND PROVIDING CLEAN ENERGY AND LOW COST HOUSE IN COLORADO RECENTLY SIGNED A CONTRACT WITH GUZMAN.. ACCORDING TO BUSINESS WIRE QUOTE RATEPAYERS ARE EXPECTED TO SAVE MILLIONS WITH THE NEW WHOLESALE POWER SUPPLY CONTRACT.T.ITIT IS IMPERATIVE O NOT FORCE BOULDER CITIZENS INTO A DECISION REGARDING XL UNTIL PAUL CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS ARE VERY WELL INFORMED ABOUT ALL THE OPTIONS FOR CLEAN ENERGY.Y.

WE WILL BE CHOOSING A PATH THAT WILL TAKE THE NECESSARY STEPS TO HELP PREVENT THIS CRISIS FROM GETTING WORSE AND ALREADY HAS.. SOME CRUMBS IS ONLY A FRACTION OF WHAT CONTRACTS SUCH AS GUZMAN ENERGY PROPOSES MY GENERALLY GENERATION WILL LIVE WITH THE CONSEQUENCES OF YOUR GENERATION'S DECISIONS ON.

A A RAISE IF SECURITY AND THE UNKNOWNS ABOUT THIS AGREEMENT THEY ARE ASKING US TO PUT ON THE BALLOT AND VOTE ON.. THIS DEAL SEEMS TO BE TOO MANY UNKNOWNS ABOUT THIS SO I URGE THE COUNCIL NOT TO PUT THE FRANCHISE AGREEMENT ON THE BALLOT THIS YEAR.R.I PERSONALLY SUPPORT THE IDEA OF A MUNI AND I THINK WE SHOULD STILL CONTINUE TO MOVE IN THAT DIRECTION..I BELIEVE THE INTERACTION..THANK YOU T TO STAND NEXT TO JIM AND MARY AND RICK HEALEY SANDRA LARSON.N.COUNCIL MEMBERS THINK A FAIR TIME TODAY AND EVERYTHING TO DO TO LEAD OUR COMMUNITY WAS THERE AND I'M A BOULDER RESIDENT AND ORGANIZING DIRECTOR OF NEW ERA COLORADO.O.

I I A AM VIRTUALLY HE TODAY TO URGE YOU TO STAY THE COURSE AND NOT TO RUSH SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT WITH EXXON THIS NOVEMBER BALLOT.T. HAS BEEN SUPPORTING UNITS PLUS SEASONS WITH AT LEAST TWENTY ELEVEN BECAUSE THE BURDEN OF CLIMATE CHANGE FALLS DISPROPORTIONATELY ON YOUNG PEOPLE LOW INCOME PEOPLE AND PEOPLE OF COLOR. WILL BE THE BIGGEST PRICE FOR INACTION AND JUSTICE ON CLIMATE CHANGE.E. NATIONALIZATION IS SO BOULDER'S BEST TOOL TO REACH OUR COMMUNITIES CRIME IN RENEWABLE ENERGY GOALS WHILE OPENING THE DOOR FOR LOCALLY DRIVEN. INNOVATION IN OUR ELECTRICITY SYSTEM AND MAINTAINING RATES OR LIABILITY FOR OUR WHOLE COMMUNITY..BOULDER VOTERS HAVE BEEN CLEAR WE CONTINUE TO SUPPORT NATIONALIZATION CLIMAX AT THE BALLOT BOX YEAR AFTER YEAR.R. COMMUNITY DIALOGUE IS A CRITICAL MISSING COMPONENT HERE AND IT MUST HAPPEN BEFORE WE MAKE SUCH A MASSIVE DECISION OUR ENERGY FUTURE.. ESPECIALLY DURING THE MAC AND ESPECIALLY WITH SO MUCH ON THE LINE SELECTION AT SOUTH ELEVENTH HOUR PROPOSED SETTLEMENT IN THE MIDDLE OF A PANDEMIC SHOULD NOT COME AS A SURPRISE TO ANY OF US..THTHE BOULDER HAS

[258:03] A CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT TO MUNICIPAL AS THEY HAVE DELAYED OBSTRUCTED THIS PROCESS NEARLY EVERY STEP OFTHE WAY OR NOT TO BE TRUSTED.. EVEN IF WE ARE ABLE TO MEET RENEWABLE ENERGY GOALS WITH XL THEIR FRANCHISE ELEMENT CONTAINS LITTLE ACCOUNTABILITY AND TEACHER CLEAN ENERGY FUTURE OUT OF OUR COMMUNITIES HANDS.S. WHICH FLIES IN THE FACE OF THE PASTOR SAYS VOTERS OF A FIRM'S ELECTION AFTER ELECTION RATHER THAN REVERT TO BUSINESS AS USUAL IN CENTER CITY'S PROGRESS TOWARDS OUR COMMITMENTS.. PLEASE CONTINUE ON OR AFTER THE UNION PROJECT EXCEL SETTLEMENTS GOOD SHOULD BE PUBLICLY OWNED NOT ONLY FOR YOUNG PEOPLE BUT FOR THE FUTURE OF OUR PLANET.T. FROM MA MODEL WHEN IT COMES TO COMMUNITY LED EFFORTS TO SEEK LIES ACCESS TO RESOURCES IN COMBATING CLIMATE CHANGE.E.IFIF YOU CHOOSE THE WRONG PATH FOR YOUNG PEOPLE IN OUR COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE WILL BE DIRE CONSEQUENCES FOR YOUR TIME CONSIDERATION THE NEXT THREE OF RICKY LEE SANDRA LARSON AND DAN BURTON.N.THANK YOUUTHIS

[259:11] IS RICK HEALEY I AM A RESIDENT OF HOLDEN AND I A AM URGING CITY COUNCIL TO VOTE NO BY PUTTING THE AGREEMENT ON THE PHONE DOWN.N. CONCERN IS THAT WE SIMPLY DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH INFORMATION TO MAKE AN INFORMED DECISION..WHWHY DON'T WE JUDGE THE ESTIMATES FROM THE RFP IS TO FIGURE HOW MUCH YOU MEAN IT'S GONNA COST US TWO COR..ERNIE ISIS TRUST WERE HELD IS IT I IF WE FIND ANANY OVER THE LAST TEN YEARS..IT'S'S HUGE TO BEE A AT THE XL DO ANYTHING WITHIN THEIR POWERS TO STOP US FROM THE

[260:00] SURPRISING.G. THANK ALICE JACKSON FOR ALL THE WORK THAT SHE'S DONE HANNAH AND I BELIEVE THAT SHE IS ENTERED INTO NEGOTIATIONS HOW TRUSTING A PARENT BUT AS SPEAKERS HAVE MENTIONED.. WHO KNOWS WHERE ELSE WILL BE FUTURE BY THE TIME COMES AND THE SECTOR COULD MIX UP COULD HAVE ANOTHER PERSON WHO FEELS VERY DIFFERENT THINGS HAPPEN TO READ NEXT.T.SANDRA LARSON JAN BURTON CHRIS NICHOLS AND THE EVENING..THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME IN LISTENING TONIGHT..THREE COLORADO UTILITIES HAVE SIGNED DEALS IN JUST THE PAST FEW MONTHS THE WHOLESALE ENERGY PROVIDER THAT FOCUSES ON RENEWABLES AND HAS PROVIDED FINANCING TO MAKE THE TRANSITION. THESE COMMUNITIES WILL GET CLEANER ENERGY AT A LOWER COST.AS SOON AS TWENTY TWENTY ONE..

[261:03] THIS IS WHAT THE NEW ENERGY ECONOMY LOOKS LIKE THE TRANSITION TO CLEANER ENERGY IS THE MOST ECONOMICAL ALTERNATIVE AND IT'S HAPPENING IN COMPETITIVE DEALS MADE HERE IN COLORADO.O. OUR CITY HAS ABOUT THE SAME CUSTOMERS AS THOSE THREE UTILITIES COMBINED LIKE THOSE COMMUNITIES WE SHOULD HAVE THE CONTROL TO DO HARMONIZE OUR OWN ENERGY FUTURE..ALSO KATIE ARE ARTICLES TO BE CENTRALIZED IN THE MARKET EYES WITH A MULTI STATE CORPORATION BEHOLDEN TO SHAREHOLDERS AND EXPECTED TO PURSUE STANDARDIZATION ACROSS ITS MARKETS..IT'S HARD TO D DO THAT.T. FOR EXAMPLE I LIVE IN A CONDO IN AN IDEAL SPOT FOR ROOFTOP SOLAR PHOTOVOLTAIC UNDER EXCELS MY NEIGHBORS AND I CAN'T PULL THE POWER FROM BOTH SIDES OF OUR SHARED ROUGH..WEWE HAVE TO HAVE INDIVIDUAL PANELS ON INDIVIDUAL READERS WHO GETS THE POWER FROM THE SUNNY SOUTH FACING SIDE AND YOU GET STUCK WITH THE LESSON THE NORTH..THAT'S JUST ONE EXAMPLE OF HOW PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN CONDOS APARTMENTS AND MOBILE HOMES ARE OFTEN LEFT OUT WE TALK ABOUT LOWERING CARBON FOOTPRINTS THAT CYNICALLY ISSUE TOO..WEWE D DO CARE ALOT ABOUT RATES THOSE OF US WHO LIVE THERE AND MANY OF US

[262:00] DON'T HAVE THE CAPITAL TO MAKE ENERGY IMPROVEMENTS ON.. OUR HOUSES ARE SMALL WE SHARE WALLS WE LIVE IN WHAT COULD BE VERY LOW CARBON FOOTPRINT HOUSING.. OR CITY MUST BE ABLE TO INNOVATE LOCALLY TO SOLVE THESE ISSUES WITH FULL COMMUNITY CONTROL AND A VERY EXPLICIT CONNECTION TO THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND SOCIAL EQUITY ISSUES WE FACE.. OUR CITIZENS ARE CAPABLE OF CRITICALLY EVALUATING THAT'S NOT THE VOTE BEING OFFERED TO US IN NOVEMBER.R. AS AN EDUCATOR WHEN I WRITE A MULTIPLE CHOICE TEST QUESTION I CALL THAT TO DISTRACT OR.R. SHOULD BE VOTING ON A PIG IN A POKE IS DELAYED A VOTE WE CAN SEE FULL PROPOSALS IN COMPARATIVE COSTS.. FOR ALL THE POSSIBLE ENERGY FUTURES NOW ON THE TABLE THINK YOU JUST ENTER THE NEXT RIDGE AND BURTON CHRIS NICHOLS AND BOB HOPPER CHAN.N. EVENING COUNCIL AND MAYOR READER THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE ESPECIALLY IN HOLDING EXTRA COUNCIL MEETINGS TO PREPARE FOR BALLOT MEASURES THIS FALL..I

[263:04] URGE YOU TO VOTE TO SUPPORT PUTTING THE FRANCHISE AGREEMENT ON THE BALLOT THIS NOVEMBER.R. AND WHITE NOW BEFORE ALL THE COSTS ARE KNOWN NUMBER ONE COUNCIL AND CITY STAFF HAVE NEGOTIATED A GOOD AGREEMENT IN GOOD FAITH.H. VOTERS HAVE A RIGHT AND RESPONSIBILITY TO VOTE ON SOMETHING THIS IMPORTANT.T. NUMBER TWO WE HAVE ALMOST RUN OUT OF MONEY IN ORDER TO CONTINUE WE WILL HAVE TO APPROVE NEW SPENDING WHICH IS SOMEWHAT QUESTIONABLE.. AND NUMBER THREE RIAA AND THIS COMMUNITY HAVE A REAL SENSE OF URGENCY AROUND CLIMATE CHANGE AND THIS IS THE FASTEST PATH TO EMISSIONS REDUCTIONS.S. I IN ADDITION WE WILL BE PART OF A BIGGER PICTURE AT THE STATE OF COLORADO WHERE WE CAN HELP ACHIEVE MUCH GREATER RESULTS RESULTS..DON'T BE PERSUADED BY THE ARGUMENT THAT WE NEED MORE TIME TO UNDERSTAND THE DETAILS OF THE AGREEMENT WE HAVE TWO MONTHS TO EVALUATE PLEASE GIVE THE VOTERS A CHANCE.E.THANK YOU SO MUCH ANDD

[264:16] THAT'S WITH CHRIS MICHAEL HARPER ELIZABETH HAS BEEN THIS.S. HIGIGH THE INTEREST GOS AND I WANTED TO URGE CITY COUNCIL NOT PROCEED WITH PUTTING THIS MEASURING ABOUT TWENTY TWENTY.. BUTUT GIVE USUS GIVE YOURSELF SOME TIME TO EVALUATE THIS IN A PREVIOUS SPEAKER SAID. YOU KNOW YOU HAVE ALL THE INFORMATION YOU KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE GO FORWARD WITH IT..THTHE PROBLEM BEING IS THAT COUNCIL MEMBERS HAVE EVEN STATED THAT YOU DON'T HAVE ALL THE DATA YOU DON'T HAVE THE ART PIECE.E.WE STILL HAVEN'T RECEIVED THE CONDEMNATION COSTS.S.THESE ARE THE THINGS THAT CITIZENS ASK FOR CITIZENS WERE LOOKING FOR AND WROTE FOR GUIDANCE FROM CITY COUNCIL IN ORDER TO HELP THAT AND PUSH THAT MEASURE ALONG.. SO THAT WE CAN MAKE AN EDUCATED DECISION IN REGARD TO OUR ENERGY FUTURE INTO EXCEL..YEYET YOU KNOW THATAT

[265:04] THEY'RE SAYING THREE THINGS TONIGHT ELSE THE ESSENCE OF GREAT THINGS.. AND I IT SOUNDS GOOD BUT THE PROBLEM BEING IS THAT IF YOU TURN THE TABLE TO THE OTHER SIDE.. THE LITIGATION MEASURES HAVE BEEN MEASURABLE.E. AND HELD UPUP OVR TEN YEARS AND YOU KNOW I I THINK IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT FOR CITY COUNCIL HAD DATA AND BE ABLE TO MAKE THAT EVALUATION.N. HAVE THAT DATA PASSED ON TO THE VOTERS SO THEY CAN MAKE THAT DECISION AND MOVE. IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION THAT THEY BELIEVE WE SHOULD PROBLEM BEING IS THAT IN THE ALLOTTED TIME THE DATA WILL BE THERE.WE KNOW COLLEGE COSTS WILL BE THERE.. THERE'S QUESTION AS TO WHETHER OR NOT THEY ARE DATA WILL BE THEIR TIME SO I URGE YOU TO NOT PUT IT ON THE BOAT IN TWENTY TWENTY. GET THE DAY A PASS AT THE DAWN AND BEFORE.E.

[266:04] THANK YOU VERY MUCH LIKE ICARUS EXTRA BOB HOPPER ELIZABETH HARTMAN AND MARTY HOPPER.R. CAR I IS SOON THAT II HAVE OR MIGHT BE AND THE SEAM LINE IS MARTY HOW ARE YOU THERE SEASON YOU CAN HEAR ME.. THE CANDIDATE THAT WINS FOROR OLDER RESIDENTS FORTY ONE YEARS AS RETIRED PSYCHOLOGIST USUALLY VERY SUPPORTIVE OF ARTISTS TALKING.G. MUCH MY CLINICAL WORK AND BOTH OF THE RESOLUTION OF VARIOUS KINDS.. IN THE CASE OF THE NEGOTIATIONS BETWEEN EXCEL OR ARE THE RESULTS ARE HIGHLY SUSPECT THE DETAILS OF THE AGREEMENT ARE UNCLEAR AND DIFFICULT THAN THE WHOLE PROCESS SEEMED RASH AND HASTY..IT FEELS LIKE BOULDERS BEING RAILROAD RAILROAD INTO SIGNING A BLANK CHAT WITH SELF CONTROL OVER HUGE.E.WHILE

[267:01] MANY OF OUR NEIGHBORING CITIES LIKE ON FOR HOURS OUR CONTROL THEIR ENERGY LESS THAN WHAT WE DO HAVE MUCH MORE RENEWABLE ENERGY.. BOULDER'S BEEN A CAPTIVE TO XL.L. XL IS WHAT THE MUNI EVERY STEP OF THE WAY.Y. THEIR QUEST HAS BEEN TO MAXIMIZE PROFITS TO SHAREHOLDERS AND TO MAKE AN EXAMPLE OF AN AGREEMENT IS A GREAT IDEA IN PRINCIPLE THIS ONE SEEMS NOT READY FOR PRIME TIME. IS NOT READY TO BE ON THE BALLOT.T.WE NEED TO KNOW THE FINAL COSTS NEED TO KNOW WHAT THE OTHER ARE ALTERNATIVES ARE OUT THERE AND WE NEED TO KNOW THE CONSEQUENCES EXCEL DOESN'T NEED TERMS.S. THERE ARE MANY MANY UNANSWERED QUESTIONS CONCERNS.S. WITH CLIMATE CHANGE IS THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM AS CITY COUNCIL TO SLOW DOWN THE RUSH PROCESS CLARIFY THE FACTS THE ALTERNATIVES AND CONSEQUENCES AND ONLY THEN WITH THIS MEASURE..THANK YOU

[268:03] JOHNTHE NOSE OF THE HARTMAN MARTY HARPER AND WILL BE THE PRESIDENT..II KNEW THAT W WE C. GREAT THANKSAND THIS IS A LESSON FROM BOULDER AND LEFT THE CITY AND VOTED TO EXPLORE NEWNESS CAUSATION IN THE FIRST BOAT I GUESS THAT WAS A DECADE AGO.O. LESSONS AND NICE AND TENS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS AND MORE IMPORTANTLY TEN YEARS OF WASTED TIME.E. AND CLIMATE CHANGE AS HE HAS HAD INTENSIVE SO I WOULD LIKE TO PUT THE MEASURE ON THE BALLOT NOW..

RESEARCH AND NATION FROM BARCELONA TO SHANGHAI.I. AND WITH MANY

[269:00] UTILITIES FOR INVESTOR OWNED MUNICIPAL UTILITIES. AND FROM THIS DECADE OF EXPERIENCE I KNOW THERE IS NO CLEAR DISTINCTION BETWEEN INVESTOR OWNED COMMUNIST GOALS AS GOOD OR BAD IT JUST DEPENDS ON THE LEADERSHIP UTILITY LIKELY FOR US.S.EXCEL IS ONENE OF THE MOST REGRESSIVE UTILITIES IN THE COUNTRY UNDER THE LEADERSHIP IN COLORADO HOUSE JACKSON WAS THE FIRST.. INVESTOR NEED TO LEAVE THE COUNTRY TO ANNOUNCE HUNDRED PERCENT ZERO CARBON ELECTRICITY COAL.L. ANDND I IN CONTRAST EXCELS INCREASINGLY AMBITIOUS GOALS THEY'VE BEEN INCREASINGLY STAID BY CITY COUNCIL RECENTLY I TRUST EXCEL TO RUN A KNIFE UTILITY WITH DECADES OF EXPERIENCE DOING THIS CITY COUNCIL HAS EVER TRIED IT.THIS IS AN ESSENTIAL SERVICE.IT MUST BE RELIABLE.E.SHSHE WANTS TO BUY A BUNCH OF OLD POLES AND WIRES WHEN THE INFRASTRUCTURE IS DECAYING TECHNOLOGY ONLY AND IS INCREASINGLY COMPLEX..THISIS IS JUST NOT SOMETHING THEY PROPOSE WE TRY IF THE COUNCIL HAS WASTED A DECADE TENS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS AND A LOT OF TRUST.T.PLEASE PLACE A

[270:04] MEASURE ON THE BALLOT MOVE FORWARD WITH EXCEL AS A TRUSTED PARTNER TO ACTUALLY REDUCE EMISSIONS NOW INSTEAD OF WASTING ANOTHER DECADE.E. THANK YOU TO THEHE MAX WITH MARTY HARPER ROW THE RUBBISH AND MICHELLE SMITH BARNEY.I CAN HEAR ME..YEYES O OK GREAT I WAS MURRAY HOPPER I LIVE IN SOUTH BOULDER NOT FAR FROM THE END CARS STATIONED IN THE POWER TRANSMISSION LINES THAT RUN WEST OF DEER CANYON.N.

[277:02] CONFUSING AT THE VERY LEAST IT'S MOVING WAY TOO FAST AS MANY PEOPLE HAVE SAID.. AND IT IS ERODING TRUST THAT THE CITY WILL HONOR VOTER DECISIONS YOU MIGHT SAY WELL WE'RE GOING TO PUT THIS TO A VOTE TOO BUT IT'S A DIFFERENT BOAT.T. RATHER THAN BEING A LONE NO VOTE ON THE MUNI YOU'RE ASKING US. IN ABOUT TWO MONTHS TO FIGURE OUT WHETHER WE WANTED TO GO NO GO ON A FRANCHISE AGREEMENT WITH XL THAT HAS NOT BEEN THE CONVERSATION.N.THIS I IS S A RL TURNAROUND VOTERS SIMPLY ARE NOT READY FOR IT.T.WE DON'T KNOW ENOUGH ABOUT THE AGREEMENT TO MAKE A GOOD DECISION.N.SOSO ANOTHER THING E DON'T KNOW IS WHAT CAN HAPPEN IF WE GET AND GET NEW NATIONAL LEADERSHIP IN NOVEMBER THAT MIGHT HAPPEN.N. JOE BIDEN HAS SAID HE'LL DEVOTE TWO TRILLION DOLLARS TO ACTING ON CLIMATE CHANGE AND HE MIGHT GET ELECTED IS AHEAD IN THE POLLS.S. TWO TRILLION DOLLARS IS A LOT OF MONEY WE COULD DO A LOT

[278:00] WITH THAT. MUCH OF THAT MIGHT GO TO CITIES TO HELP US DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT INTO GREEN ENERGY TWO TRILLION DOLLARS IS THE ENERGY GAME CHANGER.. WANT TO B BE TIED TO FOSSIL FUEL INDUSTRY COMPANY GIVEN WHAT IS POSSIBLE IN THE NEXT FEW YEAR YEARS IN TERMS OF ENERGY.THIS IS A GOOD DEAL.L.IT'LL BE A GOOD DEAL YEAR FROM NOW..WE STOPPED AT THIS AGREEMENT ON NOVEMBER BALLOT.T.THANK YOUU REBECCA MET THREE OTHER SUMMER BRIAN AND BRIAN AND STEVEN LYONS.S. SHOWS CX OUTNUMBERED IN A MESS IN THE GAME IS INEXORABLY BRIAN O'BRIEN STEPHEN LAWRENCE AND NANCY L I DON'T SEE BRIAN O'BRIEN IN THE MEETING EITHER THEY DO BELIEVE STEPHEN LAWRENCE IS HERE.E.STEVE YOU NEED TO I MEAN PLACE.E.OH YESES

[279:08] YES VERY GOOD THANKS FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY EXPRESS MY OPINION ABOUT PUTTING THE EXCEL SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT OF THE BALLOT FOR THE FALL.L.I APPLAUD STEVEN CUT THE NECK AND HIS STAFF FOR DEVELOPING A COMPELLING ARGUMENT WITH EXCEL. TO BEEF UP FRONT I'M IN FAVOR OF MOVING FORWARD WITH THIS AGREEMENT OVER THE DEBATE IS NOT A QUESTION THAT'S NOT REALLY THE QUESTION OF THE TABLE..THTHE QUESTION IS DO WE ALLOW OLDER CITIZENS TO VOTE ON ACCEPTING THE CIVIL SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT REJECTED FOR SOMETHING BETTER.R.DOWNSTREAM THEIR PENSION AGREEMENTS ON BOTH SIDES OF THE ARGUMENT AS WE FOR TONIGHT AT LENGTH.H. IS ONE OF THE SMARTEST AND BEST EDUCATED POPULATIONS IN THE COUNTRY AND PERHAPS THE WORLD.. W WE CAN FIGURE OUT THE PROS AND CONS ON BOTH SIDES ON HER OWN WITHOUT THE INTERVENTION OF CITY COUNCIL SO THAT HIS PHOTO.O. FOR THE ENTIRE HISTORY OF THE MUNI EVEN PROMISE THAT THERE ARE OFF RAMPS QUORUM COURT FOR

[280:00] THE MUNI IF A BETTER DEAL CAN BE HAD.D.WE HAVE E A VERY PROMISING OFFER AM TODAY IF WE TAKE THIS OFF RAMP THE SUBTLE AN AGREEMENT WITH EXCEL PROVIDES FOR OTHER OFF RAMPS OF THAT DEAL ISN'T WORKING OUT.IT SOUNDS LIKE A REASONABLE DEAL..WELL PERFECT INFORMATION ABOUT THE COST OF THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT OR THE MUNI FOR HEAVEN SAKES ARE UNCERTAIN.PERFECTION WILL HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE NEXT WORLD..SOSO IN SUMMARY LET US VOTE DEMOCRACY DEMANDS IT.T%-pT

[305:51] WOULD BE LEFT FOR REACHING OUR RENEWABLES GOAL IN TWENTY THIRTY AND HOW CAN WE CLOSE THE GAP IF WE DON'T HAVE APPLES TO APPLES COMPARISON SO I GUESS I WILL ASK ALICE.. WHAT IS YOUR RENEWABLES COAL

[306:00] FOR TWENTY THIRTY..MARY WASAS A HANDS ON TECHNOLOGY TO COME FOR AN ECLECTIC RESOURCE PLAN WHEN I CAN TELL YOU IF WE'VE BEEN COMMUNICATING WITH OUR COMMUNITY ABOUT THE SYRUPY REMOVAL. THAT IS IMPORTANT TO MANY OF THE NEED TO CROP IT.. THEY ONLY STOLE THE TRAJECTORY WE ARE SHOWN IN TWENTY TWENTY I WILL BE AT THE RIDDLE AND YOU LOOK FOR THAT EIGHTY PERCENT CARBON REDUCTION WHERE IN THE RULEBOOK.K.II EVEN EATING MORE OF THAT IN THE FIRST TWENTY THIRTY SO I'LL PROBABLY BE WRITING ON OTHER TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPING EYE TECHNOLOGY RESOURCE COMMISSION.N.OKAY GREAT THANK

[307:17] YOU I ANDND M MY NEXT QUESTIONS WHETHER THE THINGS THAT CAME UP IN THE TESTIMONIES SEVERAL TIMES WAS THE GROOMSMAN SITUATION AND FOUND AND WHAT IS. THE LIKELIHOOD THAT BOULDER COULD OBTAIN SOMETHING LIKE THAT..LOUIUIS TO BUILD IT IT SURE.E. IS MOONSTONE WAS NOTED BY SEVERAL MEMBERS.. I IS AND HAS STEPPED IN WITH RESEARCH FOR UTILITIES AND STAYED TO HELP THEM SEPARATE FROM THEIR EXISTING POWER SUPPLIERS IN THE CASE AND TO THOSE WORDS THEY WERE OUR GAMES.. WERE MOVING AWAY I BELIEVE FROM TRYST HIS SEMINARIANS ON STAR WORLD ELECTRIFICATION

[308:00] ASSOCIATIONS.S.SO THEHE THING O SO WHAT HAS HAPPENED OR I IS THROUGH THE CASE THE DELTA MONTROSE FARMER JOHN'S TRI STATE..THERE'S A FORMULA FOR CALCULATING THAN BE IN ORDER TO LIVE THEM OUT OF THEIR CONTRACT WITH TRI STATE.. ANDND THE GUZMAN BELIEVES IS INVOLVED IN EACH CASE IS HELPING THEM TO DO IN THE FOUNTAIN WHO IS TO PARTY MY FRIEND FROM EXCEL..I AM NOT WRONG THEIR PAIN THEIR EXIT FEES.S.THE DIFFERENCE IS IS ALREADY ESTABLISHED UTILITIES..OHOH T TOO HAVE THER OWN SYSTEM SO AS WE'VE GONE OUT FOR CREATIVE FINANCING.G.

[309:05] IT'S A MUCH LARGER AM A DIFFERENT TYPE OF PACKAGE OF FANS SIMPLY WRAPPING FUNDING INTO THE POWER SUPPLY FOR IT SUCCEEDS.S.SOSO WHAT WE HAVE RECEIVED IS NOT SIMILAR OR NOT..GOODMAN HAS DAWNED AND I WILL SAY GUZMAN WAS NOT ONE OF OUR BIDDERS SO SORRY GO AHEAD AARON..IFIF YOU FINISH OT THE EDGES SO THAT ANOTHER QUESTION ON THIS WEIRD ON SO WHEN I AM WHAT I UNDERSTAND YOU'RE SAYING IS THAT.. FOUNTAIN DELTA MONTROSE ALREADY HAD THEIR OWN UTILITIES AND THAT THEY WERE BASICALLY GETTING OUT OF AN EXISTING CONTRACT WHICH GOES MAN WAS PAYING FOR THEM.M. ALLOWING THEM TO GET OUTUT OF THAT CONTRACT BASED ON AN ESTABLISHED FORMULA IS GROWING INTO THEIR RAIDS IN

[310:00] THE FUTURE.E.OKAYAY I I THINKNI CAN JUST ADD TO THE POINTNT OF CLARIFICATION.N.THANKS MARY SIS T THAT THOSE SURVEYS OR OFFERS THAT REQUIRE AN EXISTING UTILITY TARDY C'EST RIGHT SO IF WE IF WE FINISH FOR MUNICIPAL UTILITY..WEWE MIGHT GET A SIMILAR DEAL IS THAT WE WOULD HAVE TO HAVE THE UTILITY TO GET THE SIMILAR KIND OF DEAL THAT THOSE.. OTHER CITIES CUT SETET WHILE WE WERE CERTAINLY HOPING AS WE PUT OUT BIDS FOR CREATIVE FINANCING WOODS THING LIKE THAT HE.E. PHYSICALLY I DON'T NECESSARILY NEED TO BE IN FULL UTILITY FORM OF CREATIVE FINANCING HOMES BUT THEIR DEALS WERE ISOLATED AND SMALLER..OURS I ISS WHAT WE'RE

[311:10] TRYING TO ACHIEVE ITS MUCH LARGER AND MORE COMPLEX IS JUST UNDERSTAND I MEAN AT ANOTHER OTHER ENTITIES THAT CALL.L. T TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OFA DEAL LIKE THAT.T. BUT FOR THE CU BOULDER TO TAKE IT LIKE THAT WE COULDN'T DO IT.T. WHILE WE STILL HAVE EXCELLED OUR POWER PROVIDER AND WITH THEM CONTROLLING THE POLES AND WIRES AND SUCH NO RIGHT.. T TOO SUE THE CITY OF BOULDER'S PATH TO SOMETHING SIMILAR IS LIKE STEP ONE FOR MUNICIPAL UTILITY STEP TO GET SOME SUN A SOMEWHAT SIMILAR DEAL..MORE GOLF BALL IN HER ROOM TO GET OVER HIM ON ONE BIG ACTION WORD AND THANK YOU SO I HAVE A COUPLE MORE QUESTIONS..

[312:22] WHAT SOMEBODY BROUGHT UP THE IDEA OF THE MUNICIPAL UTILITY AS AN ECONOMIC.C. ENGINE ANDND M Y QUESTION IS IS HOW LONG AFTER I I STARTING A MUNICIPAL UTILITY WOULD IT BE POSSIBLE FOR IT TO BECOME AN ECONOMIC AND IF IT WOULD WE.E.SO W WE HE THE FINANCIAL FORTUNES TOOLS OUT THERE..II WANTED ALL THE MULTIPLE VARIABLES WERE TRYING TO IDENTIFY THE COST OF EVERYTHING FROM THE ACQUISITIONS OF THE SEPARATION STAND IN THE UTILITY.. T TO OUR POWER SUPPLY COSTS WHICH ARE A SIGNIFICANT COMPONENT OF THE OFFERING CONSOLE UTILITY TO POTENTIAL STRANDED COSTS EACH OF THOSE VARIABLES DEPENDING ON LEVEL SEVEN..OUOUR CASH FLOW

[313:03] FUNDAMENTALLY THAT WE EXAMINED OVER THE COURSE OF THE NEXT TWO YEARS..SOSO I F SAY OUR ACQUISITION COST THEM MUCH HIGHER THAN WE ANTICIPATED.. THAT GOES TO THE CASH FLOW OVER THE COURSE OF THE NEXT FEW YEARS BECAUSE WE DO ALSO HAVE A COMMITMENT TO RE EQUITABLE TO AND EXCELS.S.OHOH WHAT THAT DOES IS REDUCE.E. OUR CASH AVAILABLE TO DO OTHER PROJECTS IN OTHER THINGS ON THE SYSTEM.M. S SO TT YOU CAN I IMAGINE QUESTION IS A FUNCTION OF ALL THOSE VARIABLES AND HOW MUCH SPACE THERE IS FUNDAMENTALLY BETWEEN.. A A CAP AND TRADE SO

[314:01] THAT SOULS LEVEL TO THE MUNICIPAL COSTS OF OPERATIONS WOULD BE INCLUDING PAYING BACK OUR DEBT.. SO IS THERE LIKE I'M HIGH AND A LOWOW TIME FRAME ON WHAT WEWE TRYRY TO LOK AT ISS OVER THE COURSE OF THE FIVE YEARS AND YEARS..OHOH WHAT OUR CASH FLOW WOULD BE SO IS IF COST WEREN'T ON THE LOW W WE COULD BE CASH POSITIVE CASH FLOW POSITIVE.. ALWAYS REINVENTING YOUR PERIOD AND AS WE START TO APPROACH THE EDGE OF AFFORDABILITY OR OUR FINANCIAL VIABILITY FOR THE NEW ME.E.WEWE START TO SEE IF THEY ARE MAYBE TWO OR THREE YEARS..WHEREE WERE YOU ARE NOT CASH FLOW POSITIVE THAN WHAT WE NEED TO START DOING IS ADJUSTING BUDGETS BECAUSE WE DO HAVE..O CAPITAL

[315:03] IMPROVEMENTS AND WE WOULD DO ON THE SYSTEM SO THE FIRST INNING AND STARTED TO.. TURN THAT OFTEN SLOWS DOWN AND HAVE THOSE MATCH UNWIND WITH YOUR BUDGET SO IT'S DIFFICULT TO SAY WHERE WE WOULD BE UNTIL WE HAVE THOSE FINAL COSTS IDENTIFIED SOUL.L.WEWE REALLY CAN'T COUNT ON IT BEING AN ECONOMIC ENGINE RIGHT AWAY.Y.II KNOW W WEE HOPR THOUGH I I WAS CERTAINLY THE HOUSE COS CREAM AND WE IDENTIFIED THAT WE WOULD BE NOW I WILL SAY WITH THE CURRENT VALUES.S.WEWE KNONOW TM AND WITH THE CAMP THAT THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT APPLIES TO TWO HUNDRED MILLION.N.OO CURRENTLY IT IS STILL ALL FINANCIALLY VIABLE TO PURSUE THEM IN THE HOME AS WE MOVE FORWARD..THERE IS SOME ROOM IN

[316:05] THERE FOR STRANDED COSTS AND SLOW SO IT WOULD BE CASH FLOW POSITIVE OVER THE COURSE OF FIVE TO TEN YEAR PERIOD.D. WITH THEHE LIVE FINAL QUESTION IS SOMEBODY BROUGHT UP THE IDEA OF A FRANCHISE SIGNING FEE AND IT WAS THAT DID THAT COME UP OVER THE COURSE OF THE NEGOTIATIONS. WE RAISE IN EARLY ON IT WASN'T SOMETHING THAT WAS ACCEPTABLE.E.ALICE COULD YOU DRESS THE THINGS.S. I I DON'T'T RECALL HIM HAVING A SESSION OF THE BENCH BY PAINTING AM QUITE SURE WHAT THAT IS OR HOW IT WORKS.S. WITH ARE

[317:02] THINKING OF HIS MISTRESSES VERY DIFFERENT CIRCUMSTANCE AND MAY WE REQUEST YOU A VAGUE RECOLLECTION OF BEING SOMETHING WE DISCUSSED EARLY ON WHEN A DIFFERENT DIRECTION IS THAT SOMETHING THAT COULD BE CONSIDERED..I CAN'T OPINE ON THE EURO INN ANYNY COUNT O N HIM..II DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS HOW I WOULDLD SAY THAT THE AGREEMENT ON THE TABLE IS ONE THAT WERE THE DECISION SAYING OKAY.Y. THANK YOU JUST WONN ANOTHER PIECE OF AN EQUATION AND THIS IS PROBABLY FOR JONATHAN.N.WHAT I ISS OURUR ELC ELECTRICITY OR WHAT COMPONENT OF OUR ENERGY MIX TO STATE ELECTRICITY MAKEUP CURRENTLY.Y. I'M SOO THE VERY JUST SO I UNDERSTAND THE QUESTION SO ELECTRICITY IS COMPARED TO HEED A MINUTE OR TRANSPORTATION.N.THTHEE

[318:08] TRANSPORTATION BOY WITH AA NUMBERS QUESTION LATE BUT HERE'S WHERE I WILL ANSWER THIS I CAN GET BACK TO.O. VERIFY THE NUMBERS WHEN WE DID AN EVALUATION OF WHAT OUR OVERALL ELECTRICITY LOAD WAS WE WERE LOOKING WITH SOME RESERVES AROUND TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY MEGAWATTS IF WE.. INCLUDED ELECTRIFICATION OF TRANSPORTATION AND LIKE VACATION OF BUILDINGS CONVERTING FROM NATURAL GAS INCREASED THAT BY ABOUT ONE HUNDRED MEGAWATTS.. SO THAT MIGHT GIVE YOU THE PROPORTION THAT WAY I CAN GIVE YOU SOME OF THE MORE DETAIL NUMBERS THAT'S THAT'S USEFUL PERCENTAGES WOULD BE HELPFUL.. WHAT AM I I TRYING TO I'M TRYING TO UNDERSTAND THAT GAP IS WHERE I'M TRYING TO GO WITH THIS I'M TRYING TO UNDERSTAND THE GAP IN TERMS OF PERCENTAGE..SOSO FOR EXAMPLE

[319:00] SO FOR EXAMPLE IF THE NUMBERS THAT YOU GAVE ME EARLIER ABOUT THE EQUIVALENCY BETWEEN SEO TO BE AND RENEWABLES WAS SOMEWHERE BETWEEN SIXTY FIVE AND SEVEN PERCENT..SOSO FOR THE SAKE OF EASY NUMBERS IF IT'S SEVENTY PERCENT.. RENEWABLES AS AS ALICE SAID BY TWENTY THIRTY AND THE GAP BETWEEN OUR GOAL AND WITH EXCEL WOULD GET TO IS THIRTY PERCENT RIGHT BECAUSE OUR GOAL IS A HUNDRED PERCENT RENEWABLES.S.SO IF OURUR ELECTRICITY WAS FIFTY PERCENT THEN IT WOULD BE FIFTY PERCENT OF THAT THIRTY PERCENT SO THAT WOULD MEAN THAT THE GAP IS ACTUALLY FIFTEEN PERCENT IN MY COMMUNICATING.. ++MUSIC PLAYING;; IN MY VAN I DON'T WANT TO..I LOVE THE BALL OVER TO ANOTHER PERSON BUT I KNOW AT ONE POINT MATT LETTERMAN WHO I BELIEVE STILL ON THE CALL ACTUALLY HAD THE

[320:00] NUMBERS.. AND I I DON'T PUT HIM ON THE SPOT IF HE DOESN'T AND HE DOESN'T WE CAN COME BACK TO THE EMAIL THOSE TO YOU BUT OFFERS A SECOND AND ASK..SHSHE LOOKS CRAZY THING OR TWO EXCELLENT REASONS..YEYETT I I T HAVE THE EXACT NUMBER EITHER WE DID READ IT CALCULATED I WANNA SAY IS THE EQUIVALENT OF AROUND FOURTEEN THOUSAND METRIC TONS A YEAR OF AGE ADULTS.S.II OWNWN BUT REALITY S FIFTY PERCENT OF OUR MISSIONS AND THAT'S WITH THE THIRTY PERCENT RENEWABLE NICE.E. AND SO WEE NEED TOTO DO THAT CALCULATION AND SO DEFTLY SET OUT TO YOU AND YOU KNOW WE HAVE THAT.. I THINK YOU JUST THE NUMBER I WAS LOOKING FOR IT SO IF IF IT'S FIFTY PERCENT.. MEN IT WOULD BEBE FIFTY PERCENT OF THE THIRTY PERCENT SO THAT LEAVES A FIFTEEN PERCENT GAP IS THAT CORRECT..THTHE SOUND YESES OKAY

[321:05] OKAY THAT'S WHAT I WANTED TO UNDERSTAND THANK YOU AND THAT'S ALL I HAVE.E.OKOK SO O E NO MORE HANDS UP IN THE FIRSTST PROMOTION TO THE MEDIAN PAST ELEVEN LOOSE..

[322:18] THING IN THE OBJECTIONS SEEN AND WILL CONTINUE THE MEETING TO SUGGEST THAT WE TAKE A FIVE MINUTE BREAK AND COME BACK AND DELIBERATE ACTIONS THAT HERE AT ELEVEN TWENTY TO.O.

[327:56] ME.E.THIS I IS

[328:11] ONE OF THE TIMES I WOULD LIKE TO JUMP IN THEIR FIRST CLAIM OF MY THINKING THAT'S OKAY AND I WILL MODERATE THE REST OF THE CHAIR MY PERSPECTIVE ON THIS..THAT'S OKAY I I KNOW OVER THE LAST FIFTEEN YEARS OLD HAS DONE A REALLY NICE JOB COMING UP WITH THIS.S. ENERGY AND CLIMATE BILLS SENT TERRIBLE ACTRESS TWENTY THIRTY. ONE AND IT DID NOT.. MENTION THAT IT IS REALLY IMPORTANT IS THAT A LOT.. OF LOCAL DISTRIBUTED GENERATION OF THE GOAL WORDS THAT I'VE BEEN AND SHOULD FIND A WAY TO GET THE REMAINING THIRTY FIVE.. ONLY THREE G IN THEE THREE R'S ANDND THOSE ARE ALL IMPORTANT AND ON DURING THE DISCUSSIONS WHERE THEY SELL THOSE WERE ALWAYS PART OF THE SESSION THEY WERE OUT THERE.. AND

[329:08] INFORMED EVERY ELEMENT OF WHAT WE DID BECAUSE MIZ U UR.R. PERCENT ROBLES ANDND SOLD IT TO SOMETHING IN THE BALLPARK OF SEVENTY PERCENT GAP TO CLOSE THAT GAP.. ANDND CENTRALIZED WELL THAT'S ALL PART OF THE INCREASE SHOULD THE GENERATION DISTRIBUTION PLANT IN OAKLEY WILL ALLOW MORE THAT THE MARKET AS.. T TO ALLOW THE CITY OF BOULDER TO REPRESENT ITS PEOPLE IN DISCUSSIONS ABOUT HOW TO MODERNIZE THE GRID HAD A PLAN TO MAKE SURE THAT IT'S.S. EQUITABLY SERVE AN ENTIRE CITY WITH ITS DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM AND THE ABILITY OF THE NOBLES EVERYWHERE.E.WHEN THISS FOREWORD BUSINESS FORMATION AND TWENTY ELEVEN ONE OF THE KEY POINTS WAS THE SUBJECT INCORPORATES TO SELL OR BETTER AND FOR ME.E.WELL BETTER

[330:07] HAVE AT LEAST ONE RELIABILITY IF NOT BETTER FOCUS ON THE MIDDLE AND ENABLE CREATION OF THE NOBLES BUT THERE'S JUST NO QUESTION THAT IMMUNITY WOULD ENABLE CITIES ALL OVER ALL THOSE ELEMENTS.. SOSO THERE'S NO QUESTION THAT A DEAL IF I WERE DISCUSSING MY CELL CANNOT BE AS GOOD AS IN.N. THE QUESTION IS HOW THAT IS THE DEAL AND HOW LIKELY IS IN UNI AND SO THOSE OF THE TWO THINGS I'M KEEPING IN MIND AS I'M ABOUT TO START HAD BEEN EXPRESSED..THERE WERE FINANCIAL CONCERNS ABOUT GETTING TO KNOW THE WIDTH OF FINDING MEMBERS WITH THE MONEY AND TIME ARE LESS SO.O. ANOTHER COUNCIL MEMBER EXPRESSED THAT ALMOST A YEAR THOUGH I WAS STARTING TO WORRY ABOUT A LITTLE THAT CAME INTO TWENTY TWENTY..

[331:06] RIGHT AND SO WE ALL KNOW WHAT WHAT THAT MEANS THAT ADDITIONAL UNCERTAINTY.Y. AND THE MEDIA FOR ++MUSIC PLAYING;; BORROWING FROM THE GENERAL FUND MIGHT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO DO IN THE PAST TO CLOSE HALF OF THAT.. SO W WE KNOW ABOUT WHERE WE ARE AS FAR AS THE TIMELINE IS REFERRED WERE NOT ACTUALLY IN CONDEMNATION YET WITH THE FEEL OF THE SECONDS OR THIRDS.S.STAYEDED THERE EVEN STARTED YET SO HERE ARE EIGHTEEN MONTHS IN THE APPEALS PROCESS..THERE'S LIKELIHOOD THAT WE COULD POTENTIALLY GET TO TWENTY TWENTY TWO AND NOT HAVE ALL THE NUMBERS WE ALSO HAVE HER IN THE SCHEDULE OF WORK.. TO UNDERSTAND WHAT ARE STAYING WITH ASSET COST WOULD BE AND THEN THERE'S A WHOLE HOST OF OTHER LEGAL ENTANGLEMENTS WHICH INCLUDES SUB STATIONS AND HEARD SOME ATTORNEYS DESPITE STAYING FOR.. THE MANAGER OF THE EAR INFECTION OR AN AVERAGE SUB STATIONS WORKED OUT SO WE FOLLOWED THESE OUTSTANDING CONCERNS.S.I

[332:13] WAS CONCERNED BEFORE AND THEN COME TO DISCOVER LONG EVEN AT THE BEGINNING IT'S CUSTOMARY A POINT THAT I THOUGHT WE SHOULD RIDE IT.T. OUT ANDND SEE WHERE BUT I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND WHAT.T. WAS GOING TO LOOK LIKE I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND ALL THE SMALL BUSINESSES WERE GOING TO GO OUT OF BUSINESS AND DIDN'T UNDERSTAND THE HEALTH.H. AND ADDICTION CONCERN SO THIS IS HOST OF CONCERNS THAT JUST CAME ALONG WITH COVID THAT NOT ONLY ARE THEY PRESSING ON THE BUDGET.EVENTUALLY THE EFFORTS GO FORWARD.D.SOME I INN POTENTIAL LOSS OF FUTURE TAX APPETITE SO WE'RE BACK IN TWENTY TWENTY TWO STARS ALIGN WE WOULD HAVE TO GO KNOWS ABOUT.. BUT IT STARS DON'T ALIGN MORE MONEY.Y. MIGHT EVEN

[333:04] BE AFTER THE THE MONEY AS WELL SO THE CONCERN THAT BRINGS UP AROUND THAT IS TO REWIND IT BACK TO THE VOTERS.S. BE ABLE T TO SUCCESSFULLY GO BACK TO THE VOTERS GET THE MONEY.. O OR DECISION OR T TO E ABLE TO SUPPORT WHATEVER REMAINING CLEANUP LEGAL WORK TO DO BEFORE WE ACTUALLY START THE SEPARATION WORK SO THAT THAT WAS THE CONTACTS.. IN WHICH I WAS THINKING WHEN WE GOT THE OFFER FROM EXCEL TO BEGIN SOME DISCUSSIONS.. O N THE PRINCIPLES WE'VE ALWAYS HAD THIS WHOLE PROCESS AND I'VE BEEN IN UNI SUPPORTER SINCE I STARTED WORKING ON IT BEING TWENTY ELEVEN. HAVE BEEN A SUPPORTER BECAUSE IT WOULD BE CLEARLY AND WITHOUT A DOUBT DESTROY OUR GOALS.. JUST A MATTERR OF WHEN WOULD THAT BE..UMUM S SO A AS S I THY

[334:01] OF YOU KNOW I'D BEEN IN DISCUSSIONS WITH EXCEL AND THIRTEEN TIME FRAME AND TWENTY SIX SEVENTEEN THAT NOW THIS MOST RECENT ROUND AND I CAN SCAN IT QUICKLY..THIS IS SA RADICALLY DIFFERENT DEAL THAN WHAT WE DID LIKE THAT BEFORE HIM THAT WE BROUGHT OUT THE TWENTY SEVEN TEAM DEAL AND I WAS PARTTOF ALSO SITTING DOWN TO SELF THAT I CAN SUPPORT IT.T.WEWE WANTED A LIGHTED BECAUSE ON THE SHOW THE COMMUNITY WHAT HAD BEEN WORKED OUT IT WAS A TERRIBLE TERRIBLE DEAL..THIS I IS FAIRLY GOOD DEAL SO THIS IS NOT MUNICIPAL DE SION WE KNOW THAT A PARTNERSHIP.. WITITH ANOTHER DECISION MAKING ENTITY LIKE THE CELL IS GOING TO PROVIDE US WITH LESS FREEDOM OF ACTION.. BUTUT I IT DOESN'T CLOSE OFF EVERYTHING THAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO IS MAKE SOME FRIENDS LAST TIME LESS EASY TO GET MY GRADES OF RATES OUT THERE RIGHT.WE WILL ALWAYS HAVE EXCEL RATES IN THIS POSITION.N.MAYBE

[335:11] THERE'S A FEW SPECIAL TARIFFS THAT WE CAN WORK OUT THAT THE END OF THE DAY THE RATES WILL BE SET BY THE PUC AND SELLING THEIR PROCESS.. ANDND SAID THAT THIS OFFER IS THE PARTNERSHIP IS WHAT INTRIGUES ME THE MOST ABOUT IT. BECAUSE THIS PARTNERSHIP COULD BE A NOTHING BURGER RIGHT BECAUSE WE DON'T KNOW IT DEPENDS ON THE COMMITMENTS OF BOTH PARTIES BUT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO PREVIOUS FLAVORS OF PARTNERSHIP.P.I RECALL TALKING ABOUT THIS ONE HAS A LEADERSHIP STRUCTURE THE OTHER MOMS TALK ABOUT PROJECTS MOSTLY THIS ONE STARTED FOCUS ON PROCESS HAS SET UP ACROSS AS EITHER EDGE.. BOULDER IS INTEGRATED INTO THE DISTRIBUTION PLANNING AND EXECUTIVE RESPONSIBILITY FOR

[336:00] MAKING SURE THAT HAPPENS RESTS WITH CITY MANAGER ANNE AND THEIR CLIMATE STAFF IMAGES THAT EXCELS.S. GUESTST OF COLORADO'S CEO RIGHT SO IF IT'S NOT WORKING WE KNOW WHERE TO GO AND THE TWOWO OF THE EXECUTIVE TEAM HISTORY QUARTERLY..SO FOUR TIMES A YEAR SO W WE HAVE THE ROUTE SAY THIS ISN'T WORKING OR DOES WORK AND WE NEVER TALK TO.. OUR CITY MANAGER AND OUR STAFF OUR SHACKS AND RIVER COMES AFTER ALICE AND HER STAFF.. THAT HAS NEVER BEEN ON THE TABLE BEFORE NOT JUST THAT WE COULD BE INVOLVED BUT THAT THERE'S A FEW LAYERS OF RESPONSIBILITY FOR MAKING SOMETHING HAPPEN.N. ANDND THE DEAL DOES ADDRESS ELEMENTS OF THE COLONIZATION SO SAL GETS TO SEVENTY PERCENT RENEWABLES WE KNOW WHETHER GASES PERSIST..I HAVEVE A A FUE COUNCILS ARE REALLY PUSHED MY

[337:00] CAP AND THAT CAN RAISE ISSUES THE STATE LEGISLATURE.. ANDND THEN ARRANGE NEGOTIATIONS WITH EXCEL I MEAN WE ARE NOT ALIGNED WITH EXCEL ON HOW TO CLOSE THE GAP YET.. BUT THAT IS SOMETHING OTHER COMMUNITIES WANT TO BE ABLE TO DO AS WELL AND WE DON'T WANT TO PAY A PREMIUM FOR THAT THAT WILL BE ONE OF THE FOCUSES.. OF THE PARTNERSHIP TO MARKET EYES ROLL BACK TO THE TABLE IS PARTIALLY THE MOXIE A MEANS OF REPRESENTATION.. WE DON'T HAVE FINAL DECISION MAKING AUTHORITY LIKE THE WORD THAT THERE WERE MANY. DECENTRALIZED CENTRAL ELEMENT OF THE GRID PLAN WOULD CREATE MORE OPPORTUNITIES FROM NOBLES HAD WE DO THAT CREDIBLY THAT'S ONE HUNDRED TWENTY PERCENT RULE..THAT'S WHERE WE GET TO KNOW HOW CAN WE MAKE IT SO THAT POWER GENERATING PLANT MIGHT BE ABLE TO HELP PEOPLE WHO CAN'T OTHERWISE HAVE A SOLAR BECAUSE.. W WE MAKEKE SOLAR GARDENS WORK FOR BOULDER WE HAVE REALLY AGGRESSIVE GOALS THAT.T. THE OTHER THING I THINK

[338:00] IS GOING TO BE A SLEEPER THAT IS REALLY IMPORTANT IS THE INFORMATION THAT WILL BE SHARED WITH THE CITY.Y.WE'VE BEEN TRYING TO GET SOME LEVEL OF RELIABILITY INFORMATION.. WE GOT SOME BUT IT'S BEEN REALLY SPOTTY.. AND DISAGREE THAT REGULAR EYES EXCHANGE OF INFORMATION BETWEEN. THE COMPANY IN THE CITY WILL GIVE US AND OUR STAFF ARE BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THE WAY I OPERATE RIGHT NOW SO UNDERSTAND THAT WE GO NOW..OUR STAFF NOW IS MUCH BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF MATH ABOUT THAT THAT INFORMATION SHARING EMPOWERS US TO ASK FOR WHAT WE WANT IN THE SHOW SO THAT IS SOMETHING THAT.T. IS EASY TO OVERLOOK BECAUSE IT'S NOT PARTICULARLY SEXY BUT IT IS SOMETHING IN KNOWLEDGE IS POWER IN THIS CASE KNOWLEDGE OF OUR GRID IS.S. THEHE POWER O

[339:00] IMPROVE THE RESILIENCE THROUGH. THE ISLAND NOBLES CAN COME ON AND SO ON ANOTHER PIECE OF THIS IS AS LONG AS WE'VE TALKED ABOUT IN INSTALLATION AND I SAID THIS MANY TIMES MYSELF..WEWE WANTED TO BE SOMETHING THAT STILL.L. AND YOU KNOWW THIS LOCATION SCALABLE WELL WE KNOW THAT WE COULD PROBABLY GET IT DONE. BUT IS IT GOING TO BE AN EXAMPLE OTHERS WILL FOLLOW THE BEATEN PATH AND SO IT COULD TAKE NEARLY AS FAR AS IT WAS GONE.WOULD THAT BE SOMETHING OTHER COMMUNITIES WOULD DO.O.WHEREAS DEVELOP A SUCCESSFUL PARTNERSHIP WITH EXCEL.WE MAKE IT WORK..I JUST KIND OF WORK AND NOT JUST.T. PUNISH AWAY BUT WE ACTUALLY ARE PART OF THIS PLANNING PROCESS I EXPECTED ALL THE OTHER.. INTERESTED AND WE WORK OUT CAME SOME STRUCTURES THAT MIGHT BE MORE EASILY SCALABLE

[340:00] TO THOSE OTHER OCEAN.. THINGS ABOUT THIS OFFERS THAT I THINK WE ALL NEED TO UNDERSTAND IS SERVED WITH LEGAL ISSUES THAT ARE OUTSTANDING WITH TIES THEM ALL IN ONE WAY OR ANOTHER..SOSO ONE THING IT ACTUALLY DOES AT THE END OF THE DAY.Y. W WE STOP SPENDING MONEY ON LAWYERS IF WE DO IT IF WE'D GO TO PICK IT UP AGAIN BECAUSE EMISSIONS TARGETS ARE MET ESTHER THE PARTNERSHIP. REALLY DIDN'T WORK IT WAS JUST FOR SHOW THAN FIVE YEARS.S.WEWE STARTRTH A MUCH BETTER POSITION.. THAN WE GET TODAY IN MY OPINION THAT WE START WITH A MUCH CLEANER SLATE.. OF ACTION ITEMS WE HAVE TO GO FOR WHICH MAKES THIS POLISH AND POTENTIALLY A BIGGER THREAT WHICH MEANS HOPEFULLY MARK AND ABILITY OF THREATS NOT NEEDED BUT.. BUTUT IT'SS GOOD R TROUT IN THE COVER DOES AS FDR SAID ABOUT HOW TO GETET ACCOUNTABILITY.Y.UMUM DOEOES DE

[341:02] YOUR DISCRETION AS IT IS NOT IN ANY OTHER FRANCHISE AGREEMENT RIGHT NOW SO.O. WE EXECUTE THIS FOR A WE WOULD WE BE SETTING A STANDARD THAT OTHERS LOOK AT THESE THESE GREENHOUSE GAS AND YOU KNOW WE HAVE A TUSSLE WITH THE COMPANY OVER THIS..WEWE ENDED P WITH THE GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS BEING DENOMINATED ALL GREENHOUSE GAS AND NOT JUST CARBON DIOXIDE WHICH IS THE BIGGEST ONE THAT COMES FROM POWER GENERATION BUT INCLUDES.S. A A FUGITIVE EMISSIONS AND INCLUDES THE OTHER. GREENHOUSE GASES ASSOCIATED WITH ELECTRICITY GENERATION SO THE ENTIRE SPECTRUM OF GLOBAL WARMING GASES COME FROM ELECTRICITY AND THE COMPANY SIGN UP FOR IT WHICH WOULD GIVE THEM CREDIT.T.ANANDD I I ALSO WANT Y

[342:02] THAT. THAT I BELIEVE THAT EXCELLED WILL WANT TO SEE THIS SEED BECAUSE LOTS OF EYES ARE ON THIS RIDE IF YOU THINK ABOUT.. W WE HEARD FROM THE GUTTER TO THE ENERGY OFFICE AND THE AG IS BECAUSE OF THOSE EYES WILL GET MORE ATTENTION TO MAKING THIS WORK.K. I IS IMPORTANT TO NOTES THAT WE'VE GONE WITH A THIRD PARTY TO DO OUR GAS GAS GAS FOUNDATION.N.SOSO IN THE REPORTING TO THE CG IN THEHE STATE..THERE ARE WAYSYS THAT SELL CAN ASK FOR CREDITS AND THOSE ARE NOT THE CREDITS THAT WE NECESSARILY AGREE WITH THE NOT SO WE PUT THESE.E. IN TERMS OF GHG BUT ALSO A THIRD PARTY SO IT'S NOT GOING THROUGH THEIR QUALITY CONTROL COMMISSION OR C DA JIE AND THAT'S ANOTHER ELEMENT OF VALIDATION..SOSO I IS OUTLIG

[343:06] THOSE POINTS BECAUSE THOSE OF THE ARCH THAT I THINK ARE IMPORTANT IT'S TOLL ON ME SO I'M NOT REPRESENTING ANYONE LISTENING THAT THIS IS AS GOOD AS ANY..ITIT HAS ADVANTAGS WHICH ARE DIFFERENT THAN WHAT THE ESCALATION HAS NO ONE TO TALK ABOUT A COUPLE OF ELEMENTS MY DECISION MAKING AND I'LL BE DONE..I WANTED TO SEW TONIGHT DOES NOT DEFINE HER TO PUT THIS ON THE BALLOT.T.THIS IS S A SUBSTANTIAL DISCUSSION WE LEARN SOMETHING OR SOMETHING COMES TO LIGHT THAT WE DID NOT EXPECT TO FIND SOME SEPTEMBER..SOSO REALIZE SOMETHING CRAZY THAT WE HAVE NOT TALKED ABOUT HERE WE CAN PULL IT OFF AND NOT ON THE BALLOT AT OUR FIRST MEETING.. AND LOOK AHEAD WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A VOTE IN ONE OF THREE YEARS TWENTY TWENTY TWENTY TWENTY ONE TWENTY TWO.THAT'S IT THOSE ARE CHOICES AND SEEING TWENTY TWENTY ONE.E.

[344:13] THERE'S GOOD CHANCE THERE WILL BE REFERRED MEASURE TO STOP THE MEDIA FOR AND PASSED VERSIONS OF THAT MEASURE THE SEA HAVE. DONE IS NOTHING STOPPING ANY TIME YOU SPENT TWENTY FIVE MILLION BUT NOTHING STOPPED ME.E.WELLLL THAT'S NOT VERY SATISFYING AND IT'S TOTALLY ALL OR NOTHING AND TWENTY TWENTY TWO LOOK ALOT LIKE GUNS..WELLLL IF YOU WILL KNOW EVERYTHING IN TWENTY TWENTY TWO..MYMY TEACHER MY NA TEACHER WE DON'T KNOW BUT THAT WOULD PROBABLY BE AN ALL OR NOTHING AS WELL AS NOW WE TAKE THIS FORWARD NOW.W. W E HAVE A CHOICE BETWEEN THE DEAL THIS ON THE TABLE FROM EXCEL OR CONTINUE READING.. THIS YEAR TO CONTINUE WITH THE MINI I DOUBT THERE'S GOING TO BE ABOUT TWENTY TWENTY ONE TO PULL IT OFF BECAUSE REAL JUST HAD A COMMUNITY.. SAID KEEP GOING WITH ME EVEN IN THE CONTEXT

[345:00] COVID SO I I THINKNK THAT HAVIG A VOTE THIS YEAR HAS A LOT OF ADVANTAGES TO THE WAY IT WILL TURN OUT FOR VULGAR.R. THAT'S ONE THING WE KNOW ALMOST EVERYTHING WE EVER REPORT RELEASED WHICH HAS HAD A PRETTY GOOD PERSPECTIVE ON WHAT STRANDED COST MY CELL WOULD NOT AGREE WITH WHAT IS IN THIS REPORT.T.BUBUT THAT'S OKAY WITH THE WOOD BEFORE. WE HAVE THAT WE KNOW THE CAP ON AWARDS TO GO IN STAGES SAID UNDER NATIVE MARION SEPARATION AND THIRTY MILLION STAR TO GO I'M GONNA FINANCIAL FORECAST UNTIL MACY'S WEBSITE.E.I CAN LOOK AT WHAT OUR CASH FLOWS AND LOOK LIKE YOU CAN VARY THE STANDARD ASSET NUMBERS RANGE.. SO I THINK WE HAVE ALMOST ALLL OF THE INFORMATION WE AT LEAST ON A COST PERSPECTIVE WE KNOW WHERE IT SELLS GOING AS FAR AS THEIR COMMITMENTS TO EMISSIONS REDUCTION.. ANDND

[346:02] SO I I FEEL LIKE A VOTE THIS YEAR IS ACTUALLY BEST FOR BOULDER BECAUSE EITHER WAY WE GO FORWARD ITS CLARITY..THIS IS THEHE BESEST DEAL THAT I'VE SEEN SO FAR I'M'M MAYBE THERE ARE BETTER DEALS OUT THERE FOR CITY AND OUR SITUATION.N. I'M NOT QUITE SURE WHAT THEY WOULD LOOK LIKE..SOSO FROM M A STRATEGIC STANDPOINT IT SEEMS LIKE HAVING THE VOTE THIS YEAR IS THE BEST POSSIBLE OUTCOME. FOR THE PEOPLE IN TOWN AND PASS TO HAPPEN IN ONE OF THOSE THREE YEARS SEEMS TO ME LIKE THIS IS THE BEST OF THOSE YEARS.. I IN JUST A STEP BACK A LITTLE BIT ANDND SAY OH THEY'RE SAYING IT'S A REALLY IMPORTANT THING CAN CONTINUE IMPACTING OUR COMMUNITY FOR YEARS TO COME. IT'S NOT GOING TO BE MUCH BETTER HAVING THIS NEXT YEAR AND MAY NOT BE BETTER AND TWENTY TWENTY TWO WE DON'T KNOW SEEING GREAT SONGS FOR US ALL TO BE.E. ME ANAND S SOOR

[347:10] THAT WE'VE HEARD FROM PEOPLE. FRIENDS AND SUPPORTERS A VERY LONG TIME THAT WE WANT TO GET THE NUMBERS AND THAT WAS THE COMMITMENT THAT WE MAY.Y. SOMETIMES THINGS CHANGE AND YET HAVE A GOOD CHANGE WHICH IS COVERED WITH SOME OTHER CHANGES WHICH IS WHAT SELLERS NOW COMMITTED TO WHICH THEY WERE NOT THE LAST TIME.. SEEMS TO ME LIKE THIS IS THE YEAR TO HAVE THIS HABIT ANYWAY NEXT YEAR THEREAFTER.AND I'M GETTING BETTER.R.WE HAVE E A DL TO LOOK AT WHAT I WANT TO HAVE THE COMMUNITY.Y.PERSONALLY I FEEL LIKE I NEED ASAS A A COMMUNITY WITH YOU.U. IN LIGHTT OF IN LIGHT OF THIS POTENTIAL DEAL IN LIGHT OF WHAT'S GOING ON WITH ME WHAT YOU THINK I'LL JUST SAY THE LAST THING HERE IS WHATEVER THE VOTERS DECIDED TO GO FORWARD..I'I'M COMMITTED TO MAKING IT WORK.K.

[348:02] THE EXCEL DEAL AND IN THE SAND BARS ON THE DAMNING WHEN WE GET STARTED THAT WE PLAN A FIFTY MILLION SPENDING FIVE YEARS THAT'S RESILIENCE FOR THE COMMUNITY.HOW DO WE MAKE IT HAPPEN..AFTER MAKING A WAY THAT PROMOTES RENEWABLE. THE MUNI GREAT PEOPLE HAVE TO HAVE ANOTHER BITE NEXT YEAR MEANING IS AHEAD THIS YEAR.R. WE JUST NEED TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN WE NEED TO BE STRATEGIC AND WE NEED TO REALLY FOCUS ON EXECUTION AND MAYBE EVEN SOME OTHER SETTLEMENTS OF PARTICULAR ISSUES.S. S SO S SO THAT'S WHYE BEEN THINKING ABOUT.. YOU ALL KNOW I'VE BEEN A HUGE SUPPORTER FOR THE WHOLE FARM AND IT'S BECAUSE WE COULD GET ALL OF OUR GOALS BUT IS A DIFFERENT DAY.. ANDND CHANGE AD THAT'S WHY MY PERSPECTIVE ON WHEN THEY HAVE THEIRS HAS CHANGE I WANT TO DISCLOSE HERE WITH THAT THANK YOU ALLAH THANK ALL THE PEOPLE WHO CAME OUT TO TESTIFY.. HERE'S EVERYONE'S PASSION ABOUT THIS MISSION HE IS IS CLIMATE CHANGE.E.THIS I IS THE

[349:00] FUTURE OF OUR CITY OURUR NATION OUR PLANET.T. OF COURSE WE ALL CARE ABOUT IT..THE QUESTION IS WHAT'S THE BEST WAY FORWARD AND I FEEL I GET ASKED THE VOTERS KNOW THE ANSWER THAT IS BUT I WILL SAY STAFF TEAM HAS BEEN EXCELLENT JOB..OUOUR PRESENTATION WAS FANTASTIC ALL THE WORK THAT HAD COME TOGETHER AS I SAY AGAIN THAT EXCELS TEAM DID THEIR WORK THEY NEGOTIATED WITH TERRORISTS.S.WEWE FORMED THIS PARTNERSHIP VISION WHICH YOU KNOW WAY MORE FLESHED OUT THAN IN PREVIOUS VISION SUIT OR NOT IT'S JUST.T. MORE DETAILED AND BETTER SO THE FRAMEWORK SPARE TO SUCCEED SPARE BECAUSE OUR COMMUNITY HAS GOTTEN THIS YEAR BECAUSE THE COMPANY HAS CHANGED OVER TIME.E. NOTOT ALWAYS EASILY OR

[350:02] WILLINGLY BUT WE'RE WHERE WE ARE NOW.. ANDND I IF WE GO DOWN THE PATH OF THE PARTNERSHIP POLICIES TO MAKE THE PARTNERSHIP WORK EVERY STICK WITH THE MUNI GO AHEAD WITH THAT BUT EVERYBODY HERE OF STAFF.F. COUNCIL MEMBERS COMMUNITY EVERYBODY HERE WANTS TO CUT CARBON EMISSIONS AS FAST AS WE CAN.. S SO I I FL LIKE WANNA GO FOR A VOTE THIS YEAR BUT OUR COMMUNITY TELL US WHAT THEY WANTED TO.O. I THINK THIS IS THE BEST YEAR THAT WE HAVE THE VOTE AND WITH THAT I WILL SEE ANYBODY ELSE WANTS TO ANNEX. MARK LASTED ABOUT THIRTY MINUTES I MUST SAY I KNOW THAT YOU ARE VERY COMPLEMENTARY AND THE STAFF..I ALSO WANT TO RENDER MY COMPLIMENTS TO YOU AND BOB FOR THE WORK THAT YOU DID AS WELL.L. GIVE GREAT WEIGHT TO

[351:06] WHAT YOU SAID BECAUSE I KNOW HOW.. COMMITTED YOU HAVE BEEN TO THE DESTABILIZATION MOVEMENT OVER THE YEARS AND SO WHAT YOU HAVE ARTICULATED MY CARE IS A LOT OF WEIGHT WITH ME.. FOR M ME THERE A COUPLE OF CONSIDERATIONS AT THE LONG ISLAND HOSTED A CONCERT AND NOT TO REITERATE ALL THAT NONSENSE I LOOK AT IT FORCES THERE MERIT TO THE TRANSACTION HAS BEEN NEGOTIATED.D.NOT PERFECTION BUT IS THERE MERIT AND SUBSTANCE TO IT..I THINK THERE ISS AND SO AT THAT POINT.. T TO ME I IT MS SENSE TO LET VOTERS WEIGH IN ON WHETHER THAT'S THE CORRECT PATH WE SHOULD TAKE OR NOT..

[352:03] WE HEARD A GREAT DEAL OF TESTIMONY AS TO WHY WE SHOULD USE UR.. THEHE RIGHTHT OF VOTERS TO WEIGH IN ON THIS AND I HAD THE FOR IT TO BEBE VOTING IS.S. ANDND THE REMEDY R PEOPLE WHO FIND THIS GREEN ONE THING.. IS TO VOTE AGAINST IT AND TO WORK AGAINST US THE WAY THE COMMUNITY COMES OUT I WILL UNDERSTAND AND WE MOVE ON FROM THERE.. I I ALSO WANT O LET PEOPLE HAVE HAD.. COMMENTED THAT YOU KNOW THIS IS SOME SORT OF TWENTY YEAR ENSLAVEMENT TO XL IS REALLY MORE THE FORM OF FOUR FIVE YEAR CONTRACTS WITH.. SOMOME FAIRLY UNQUALIFIED ABILITIES VERY VERY QUALIFIED ABILITIES TO TERMINATE THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE WORK AND I ALSO NOTE THE PROBABLY EIGHTY

[353:00] SPEAKERS ADDRESS THIS EVENING I THINK IT WAS ONLY JAN BURTON.N.HEHE KEYED IN ONON THE FINANCIAL CONSEQUENCE IS THAT WE'RE DEALING WITH NOW AND THE LACK OF FUNDING THAT WE HAVE.E. IN TERMS OF MOVING FORWARD AND I THINK YOU NEED TO BE COGNIZANT OF THAT WE ARE SAD WE ARE JUST IN A DIFFERENT POSITION.N.WEWE USE O BE AND SO AT THE ENDND W WEE PROMISED DON'T KNOW..OHOH WELEI THINK WE HAVE SOMETHING THAT PROMISE IT'S NOT THE PURPOSE NO GOAL.L. IN THE FORM THAT PEOPLE HAD HOPED TO SEE BUT IT IS IN FACT A GOGOL.. AND I I BELIEVE IT IS TIME FOR THIS COMMUNITY TO BE ABLE TO WEIGH IN AND SAY WE AGREE WITH WHAT YOU'RE DOING DISAGREE WITH WHAT YOU'RE DOING VOTERS OF BOULDER SAID THE COMMUNITY..TONIGHT NO MATTER

[354:12] WHAT YOUR VOTE OR SIMPLY SAY IT'S TIME FOR OTHER PEOPLE SEE COMMUNITY NEEDS TO GIVE US DIRECTION TO LET THEM DO SO.O. I IF YOUU MARK NEXEXT T M AARON BERRY RACHEL IN.N. THE WORLD TO MEME FOR I IT HE.E. TD HER SORRYRY ERIN VERY ORIGINAL AND IT WILL SEND THANK YOU FOR THAT EXTREMELY WELL REASONED AND ELOQUENT SUMMATION OF OUR SITUATION I'D ESSENTIALLY AGREE WITH EVERYTHING YOU SAID.. REALLY YOU THOUGHT THAT THROUGH NEXT TO YOU IN TO BOB FOR TAKING ON ALL THE TIME TO WORK THIS THROUGH.. A AS WELL AS TOTO STF AND TAVERN HAS BEEN WORKING ON THIS.. S SO I WON'T I I WONT REITERATE ALL THOSE POINTS ALL JUST HAD A COUPLE

[355:00] OF HIGHLIGHTS.. T TO T TO REITERATE TO EMPHASIZE WHICH IS THAT YOU KNOW I'VE BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO GETTING ALL THE NUMBERS IN GETTING THE GO NO GO.O. FROM THE COMMUNITY AND WE'VE BEEN WORKING.. TOWARDS THAT FOR YEARS AND I'VE SAID TOO MANY PEOPLE THAT THAT'S WHAT WE SHOULD DO.. ANDND I I WISH THAE WERE THERE THIS YEAR WE HOPE TO BE THERE THIS YEAR BUT THE REALITY IS THAT IT'S A MINIMUM OF TWO YEARS OUT AND QUITE POSSIBLY LONGER..ANAND WHAT'S CHANGED THIS YEAR HIS THIRD OF THE CRISIS AS ASSAM SAID.D.SOSO I FEEL LIKE THINGS ARE DIFFERENT ENOUGH NOW. WITH THE FINANCIAL DIFFICULTIES THAT WE HAVE AND WITH A POTENTIAL SHIFT IN.N. PRIORITIES FROM CLIMATE CHANGE WILL ALWAYS BE A PRIORITY FOR FOR THIS COMMUNITY AT THE VERY HIGHEST LEVEL BUT. WE ALSO HAVE A LOT OF KEY MEMBERS WHO ARE STRUGGLING AND SUFFERING RIGHT NOW THAT WE NEED TO PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO.O.OF COURSE

[356:03] WE'RE NOT VOTING IN FAVOR WERE AGAINST THE MUNI WE'RE.. WE'RE TALKING ABOUT DOING IS PUTTING A POTENTIAL AGREEMENT IN FRONT OF THE VOTERS AND I'VE ALWAYS FELT THAT FOR AN ISSUE THAT WAS THIS CONSEQUENTIAL AND THIS ONE.. WITH THE CANOES IS DIVIDED AS IT IS ON THE QUESTION TO ME THAT THE FINAL DECISIONS AND SHOULD ALWAYS BE AN END TO THE VOTERS SO.. I IF THE VOTERS SAYAY OF THE SETTLEMENT IS THE BEST THING FOR RIGHT NOW.W. UNLIKE SAM SAID WILL WORK SUPER HARD ON THE PARTNERSHIP THINK IN THIS FIRST WEEKEND WITHOUT.. FEATHERS TURNED DOWN THEN WE'LL KEEP WORKING ON ME JUST AS HARD AS WE HAVE BEFORE TO GET THAT'S A SUCCESSFUL CONCLUSION..SOSO I THINK FOR FOR WE ARE TODAY.Y.I THINK IT'S WORTH LETTING THE PEOPLE OF BOULDER WAY IN AND PUT THIS ON THE BOW FOR THANK YOU HUGH AND MARY RACHEL AND HAVE A MERRY.. SOO I I WILL STT

[357:06] OUT BY ALSO.O. EXTENDING MY GRATITUDE TO THE HERCULEAN EFFORT THAT OLD SAM AND BOB PUT INTO THIS AS WELL AS STAFF TO AND FROM MY WHAT I UNDERSTAND EXCEL STUFF AS WELL SO HUGE THANK YOU.UM I I WOULD..II WILL SUPPORT PUTTING THIS ON THE BALLOT AND BECAUSE I THINK IT HAS THE POTENTIAL TO CREATE THAT SYSTEMS CHANGE THAT WE NEED.D.I WAS VERY STRUCK BEGINNING WITH LAST SUMMER IN JULY WHEN WE HEARD ABOUT.. WHAT WE NEEDED TO DO IS HAVE SYSTEMS CHANGE THAT IS REPUTABLE AND SCALABLE SO SINCE THEN I BEGAN TO ASK MYSELF.F. WILL THE

[358:00] MUNI DO THAT AND I'VE BEEN ASKING MYSELF THAT SINCE.E. ALONG WITH THE LEGISLATION THAT PASSED LAST YEAR THE EIGHTY PERCENT OF EMISSIONS REDUCTIONS BY TWENTY THIRTY THAT EXCEL HAS TO DO THIS SETTLEMENT IS PUTTING MORE PRESSURE ON THAT.T. MAKING EXCEL FOR ACCOUNTABLE SO I THINK THAT THAT IS HAS MERIT IN AND OF ITSELF AND THE FACT THAT.T. WE WOULD KEEP HER SEAT AT THE PUC BY PARTNERING WITH EXCEL GOING TO THE STATE LEGISLATURE TOGETHER FOR ASKING FOR CHANGES TO SOME OF THE BARRIERS THAT ARE OUT THERE.I THINK THAT'S REALLY POWERFUL.L.I THINK THAT IS PART OF WHAT CAN CREATE THE SYSTEMS CHANGE AND I ALSO THINK THAT THAT'S GOING TO HELP MANY MANY MANY MORE PEOPLE BEHIND HIM IN BOULDER AND BEYOND.D.I THINK THAT'S

[359:03] REALLY IMPORTANT.T. ANDND THAT THE FACT THAT ITS WORK TWELVE TO EIGHTEEN MONTHS OUT FOR GETTING ALL THE COSTS AND THAT IS IF ALL THE STARS ALIGNED.. AND WE'VE BEEN DOING THIS FOR TEN YEARS THE STARS HAVE NEVER ALIGNED AND SO I DON'T EXPECT THAT WE WOULD HAVE ANYTHING HAPPENING BETWEEN E TWENTY TWO.O.WE ALSO HAVE THIS DEEP DEEP INN THEHE BUDGET AND TAXES A RESULTLT OF COVERT.. MARK I IN JUNE IN IOWA SAID ON THE BUDGET COMMITTEE AND WE SPEND A LOT OF TIME REALLY UNDERSTANDING HOW DEEPLY STAFF HAS LOOKED AT THE BUDGET CUTS.. AND THOSE

[360:02] BUDGET CUTS INCLUDE REDUCTIONS IN THE ORGANIZATIONAL CAPACITY AND THAT ORGANIZATIONAL CAPACITY ALONG WITH A LOT OF THE INSTITUTIONAL MEMORY THAT WE HAVE RECENTLY LOST AND WERE GOING TO BE THE SAME SCH..II II JUST DON'T WANT TO PUT STANDING UP A UTILITY INTO THAT MIX WHEN LIKELIHOOD LIKELY AROUND WITH STAFF IS VERY LOW AND AND THE CAPACITY IS JUST NOT THERE..I JUSTST THINK THAT WOULD PUT A STRAIN ON OUR ALREADY STRAINED RESOURCES THAT COULD ENDANGER JUST THAT KIND OF STANDING UP OF USUALLY THAT WE MIGHT WANT TO DESIRE THAT WE DESIRE.E.SOSO FOR ALL OF THOSE REASONS AND I WILL BE SUPPORTING PUTTING THIS ON THE BALLOT AND I WILL SAY MAKE A COMMENT.ALAS COMMON TO DALLAS.S.THANKS FOR

[361:04] STAYING THROUGHOUT THIS HEARING AND I HOPE THAT YOU UNDERSTAND THAT EXCEL HAS TRUST ISSUES.S. ANDND I I HOPET IF THIS WERE TO PASS ANDND IF THE PARTNERSHIP GOES FORWARD THAT YOUR COMMITMENT THAT YOU STATED TO EARN THE TRUST IS GENUINE AND AUTHENTIC..I HOPEPE BEYOND ALL HOPE THAT THAT THAT IS TRUE BECAUSE YOU HEARD THE COMMUNITY TIME AND TIME AGAIN JUST THE WAY THEY TESTIFIED THAT THERE WAS NO TRUST.. AND W WE GOT THATAT A T IN THE EMAILS THAT WE RECEIVED SO.. I HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND THAT AND I HOPE THAT YOU WILL WORK REALLY HARD TO EARN THE TRUST OF THE COMMUNITY AND WITH THAT I WILL.L. IN MY COMMENTS AND GIVE A VERERY GREAT SHOWING AT THE I THINK WE NEED TO HEAR FROM JERRY AND BOB FOR THAT.T.SOSO E

[362:08] L A JUST CONTINUE WITH. MARY'S LAST THREAD AND I AM APPRECIATED AND ALL BUT MARY SAID AND EVERYBODY HAS GONE BEFORE I SEND UP A LOT OF THE ISSUES AND I.. COMPLICATED THINGS ARE HAPPENING IN TWENTY TWENTY ++MUSIC PLAYING;; WELL SO I WON'T REHASH THAT IN TERMS OF THE TRUST ISSUES..II HOPE THAT IT SOUNDS SO EXPECTED THAT THOSE OF US ARE GOING TO REMAIN ON COUNCIL AND THOSE WHO COME AFTER US WILL REALLY BE.E. HOLDING THEM UP TO EVEN EVEN THAT HAS IT WE HAVE SOME CONCERNS WHETHER THEY ARE.. A S GOOD AS THE PAPER THEY'RE WRITTEN ON LIKE I DON'T THINK THERE'LL BE A MISSION TO USE THE OFF RAMPS AND SHE HAD JUST ENOUGH RAMSAY A THERE THERE ARE.. LEGITIMATELY READY

[363:00] AND THAT'S A LARGE PART OF WHY I SUPPORT DURING THE FORTIES TO THE VOTERS BECAUSE THEY DO HAVE FAITH THAT BECAUSE THIS IS AS HAS BEEN EXPRESSED IN GENERATIONAL DECISION MAKING..ITIT HAS TO BE A DECISION THAT GETS US TO THE ENVIRONMENTAL CLIMATE CRISIS GOALS THAT WE'VE ALWAYS BEEN AFTER AND SO IT EXCELS NOT.T. HOLDING OUT THERE AND THE PARTY AND EARN THAT TRUST AND EXPECT THOSE TO BE ACTIVATED IF THE VOTERS.. CHOOSE TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT SO ON AND YAHOO AT IS THAT AS.S. THERE IS A LOTT OF CLAMORING OR HAS BEEN FOR PEOPLE WHO DON'T WANT TO WAIT FOR.. SEVERAL MORE YEARS TO VOTE AND WITH A TV OR HEARD ON THIS AS WELL SO THAT GO NO GO VOTE FEELS.S. FAR ASA THIS SEEMS LIKE A PRETTY GOOD MOMENT TO TAKE IT TO THE VOTERS SO.. I IN N I THINK IT'S IT'S FAMILY AND FOR ALL THE REASONS THAT HAVE BEEN SAID AND BECAUSE I DO TRUST IN THE

[364:00] CAMPS WILL BE VOTING ABOUT HIM EXCEPT.T. GREAT ADADAM AND JENNY AM GOING TO CALL ON YOU KNOW IT'S OKAY.Y.ADAMAM I I THK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO PARTICIPATED IN THE SAM BOB ESPECIALLY.Y. MEMBERS OF EXCEL STUFF THE I REALLY APPRECIATE THE PRAGMATISM THAT THE COUNCIL SHOWING THIS DEFINITELY PUTS A FLOOR OF THE OUTCOMES OF WHAT CAN HAPPEN WITH OUR.. SOURCING OF ELECTRICITY BUT I THINK I'M STILL JUST A LITTLE BIT TOO YOUNG OR SOMETHING TO NOT BE IDEALISTIC..SOSO I'M'M NOT GOING TO VOTE IN FAVOR OF PUTTING THIS ON THE BALLOT.T.I'VE SEEEEN A A LOTOT OF STUFF HAPPENING IN THIS PROCESS AND IT'S SOMETHING THAT HAD TO FOLLOW FOR FOUR YEARS.. ANDND I IT SEEMS TO MEN

[365:04] THAT EVERY ROADBLOCK HAS BEEN PUT IN THE WAY BY EXCEL AND TO ME.. THIS IS JUSUST THAT A SET OF ROADBLOCKS THAT STEERS US INTO THIS OFF RAMP.P.

ANDND COURAGE I GUESS WITH THAT.. MANY OF YOU TO USE SEMINARY INFLUENCES FROM MANY MANY YEARS AND HAVE SUPPORTED THE MUNI FOR ALL THE REASONS YOU STATED.D. I I DON'T HAVE SEVERAL STAFF MEMBERS WHO WORKED ON THIS FOR MANY YEARS AND SO IS.S. IT WOULD BE FAR EASIER TO TO TO NOT WITH US ON THE BALLOT TOO LONG TO NOT. DO ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE TEAM HEADS DOWN IN PURSUING WHAT WE STARTED TO PURSUE TEN YEARS AGO THAT WOULD'VE BEEN EASIER OR LESS COURAGEOUS ROUNDS..I REALLY APPRECIATE THE COURAGE TO THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE.E. THIS UM DECISION ARE EXUDING TO RECREATE THAT TOUCHES ON TWO AREAS BE REDUNDANT TO WHAT.T. HAS BEEN SAID BEFORE ON WHAT'S REALLY QUICKLY WHY I

[370:00] LIKE THIS DEAL AND I WANT TO US WHY WE SHOULD DO THIS NOW. I LIKE THIS DEAL BECAUSE FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER.R.THERE ARE INTERIM GREENHOUSE GAS TARGETS THE RESERVE PRODUCTION GREENHOUSE GASES BY TWENTY THREE HAS BEEN THE LAW WILL ENDURE FOR MANY YEARS NOW..ONONE THING SHE DOES SO NEGOTIATION IS A COMMITMENT FROM XL.L. WITITH CERTAIN INTERIM CHARGES BETWEEN NOW AND TWENTY THIRTY OF THOSE TARGETS ARE NOT LIMITED TABLES OR STATEWIDE GOALS EVERY EVERY.. CUSTOMER OF EXCELLING IN COLORADO AS THE BENEFIT OF THAT GOSPEL HAS THE BENEFIT OF THOSE REDUCTION GOALS OF EXCELLENCE TO BE LIKE THIS DEAL BECAUSE.E. IT IS ALSO A PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN XL AND THE CITY TOO LEGIT TO GO INTO THE STATE LEGISLATURE ELIMINATE THE SILLY CRAZY HUNDRED AND TWENTY PERCENT RULE.. S SO THAT THOSE BIG CHURCHES IN WAREHOUSES CAN PUT ON LOTS AND LOTS OF SOLAR PANELS..

[371:05] GENERATE MORE ELECTRICITY THAN THEY THAN THEY NEED SO THAT ELECTRICITY CAN BE SHARED WITH NEIGHBORS LIKE THIS DEAL BECAUSE IT PRESERVES ALL OF OUR OPTIONS TO PURSUE OTHER. OPPORTUNITIES INCLUDING AND THIS IS UNDOUBTEDLY OR HIS CAGE WAS ENGAGED COMMUNITY CHOICE ELECTRICITY.Y.WE HAVE THE RIGHT TO GO TO THE STATE LEGISLATURE AS WE DID THIS YEAR AND DEMAND THAT.T. THEHE CITIES AND OUR COMMUNITY OUR STATE. THE RIGHT TO USE THE ELECTRIC PROVIDER.R. LIKE THE FACT THAT WE HAVE THE RIGHT AND IT'S ALSO NOT THRILLED ABOUT THAT BUT WE HAVE THAT RIGHT.. TO DODO THAT AND II WIL FULLY SUPPORT THIS BILL COMES BACK NEXT YEAR.. LIKE THIS DEAL BECAUSE OF THE PARTNERSHIP THAT ASSEMBLES ALLOWS US TO CLEVERLY WORK ON PILOTING AN EXPERIMENTATION CREATING TEST AND YOU'RE IN BOULDER AND THE BUSES ON HIS LAW. LIKE THIS DEAL BECAUSE I SAW COMMITS TO PROVIDING THIRTY THREE MILLION DOLLARS UNDER DROWNING.G.I THINK HER

[372:06] NEST IN A COUPLE YEARS AGO THE COST OF PUTTING ALL OF OUR WIRES UNDERGROUND OVERLOOKED RECORDS AND A HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS.. THROUGH THERE AND MAYBE MORE IMPORTANTLY WE JUST PRIOR TO THE LIFESTYLE WHAT TO DO FIRST SECOND THIRD STREET WAS.. VERY FRAGILE AND SENSITIVE AREAS LIKE CHICAGO WIRES UNDERGROUND SOLUTION QUO IS FOR COLLEGES ARE NO LONGER RISK LIKE THIS DEAL BECAUSE IT FACILITATES BROADBAND. TRENT GREEN WAS XXL SO THAT WHEN THEY OPEN THE TREES TO DO WORK WE CAN FIGHT FIRE AND VICE VERSA..IT HAS A WHOLE ATTENTION HAS BEEN TALK ABOUT TONIGHT.. PROBABLY MOST IMPORTANTLY IT UNLOCKS OUR FINANCING LIMITATIONS WHAT WE LEARN A COUPLE YEARS AGO WHEN WE'RE LOOKING AT DRUG BINGES BE SIMPLY.Y. D DO NOT HAVEVE THE BONDING CAPACITY TO DO BOTH THIS POSITION.. ABROAOAD AND SO HIS POSITION HAS STOOD IN THE WAY OF US DOING THE UBIQUITOUS BROADBAND NETWORK

[373:00] THE WAY THE LAW AS IF VOTERS APPROVE THE SCHOOL'S MISSION.N. THAT WILL FREE UP SEVERAL HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS.. RESERVE FOR MUNI ALLOW US TO GO FOR A WHILE IT IS BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE TO SPEND THREE OR FOUR HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS TO BUY.. ALREADY OWNS AND OPERATES FOR US.. W WE DONT BECOME NATION WORLD VIEW WILL PROBABLY BE THE NEXT IS ONE HUNDRED MILLION VEHICLES FOR THE TWO HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS.. CONTEMPLATE ABOUT SOLYNDRA DON'T KNOW WHAT THE TREND COSTLY BUT THEY WON'T BE ZERO UNLESS WE COMMIT TO BUY ALL OF OUR ELECTRICITY AND IMMUNITY FROM FOR MANY YEARS.. THE TOPOP OF THOSE THINGS WE ARE FROM STEVE TONIGHT THAT. COST WILL BE ABOUT THREE MILLION DOLLARS IN SEPARATION COSTS WILL BE ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS GET ALL THAT UP.. TO O A MINIMUM OF THREE TO FOUR HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS.. SO HAPPY THAT WE DON'T HAVE TO SPEND THESE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS OR EVEN MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN LEGAL FEES FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO STANDARDIZE DOLLARS DEAL BECAUSE THE GOVERNOR ACTS..I'IM

[374:02] BIG FAN OF GERMAN SOLDIERS LIKE SOMETHING I'M GOING TO CHANGE.E. ALL THAT DOESN'T WORK OUT FIVE HOURS FIVE EXITS. OVER THE NEXT TEN YEARS IN THE EXERCISE NOW WE'RE A MUCH BETTER LEGAL POSITION ASSUMES WOULD BE IF HE DID SO INCLUDING THE ASSOCIATIONS BETWEEN A KNOCKOUT.T.SOSO IN SHORT THE SETTLEMENT SAVES US PROBABLY SEVERAL YEARS OF FIGHTING IN COURT AND MANY BILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN LEGAL FEES.S. S SO YOU ENTER INTO A FRANCHISE AGREEMENT THAT DECIDE TO OPT OUT AFTER FIVE YEARS AGO WITH POSITION THAN WE ARE NOW AN ARGUABLY BETTER THAN WE ARE NOW. FINALLY I WANT TO TALK A LOT WHY WE SHOULD DO THIS NOW.W.I WAS A A MERGER ACQUISITION LAWYER FOR TWENTY FIVE YEARS IN ONE OF THE LAWYERS AND DISCUSS THE ISSUE DEALS WITH HER THERE BEFORE YOU DO DEALS AND GOOD FOR YOU.U.I DID PROBABLY TWENTY FIVE YEARS ALSO SAW A COUPLE ARE DEALS THAT FELL APART BECAUSE ONE PARTY OR THE OTHER GOT GREEDY.Y.IT WAS A

[375:02] DEAL THAT WAS MEANT TO BE THE PARTY'S RELIANCE ONE FORTY ONE A LITTLE BIT MORE IN THE DEAL FELL APART AND OFTEN.. THE SENTOSA LAWSUIT ISN'T REAL UNCERTAINTY.Y. BECAUSE NEITHER PARTY HAS ON DUAL EVERY JULIA. AND IF WE DON'T THIS IS THE HIGHEST EARNER BECAUSE AS YOU HEARD FROM COLUMN B THE NATION ACTION HAS NOT STARTED YET OR DARFUR OR EXTRA COSTS..FORSEEEE A A LT OF THINGS RUNNING HERE AND THAT MEANS AND EITHER READ OR XL REALLY KNOWS WHAT CAN HAPPEN WITH NEXT YEARS.. I IF HE'D ALSO WE RECEIVED WAS IN THIS POSITION IS TO BE MANY MANY INTERIM RULINGS IN THOSE VARIOUS LEGAL PURSUITS.S. OF THE CITY'S FAVOR THAN A LITTLE MORE LEVERAGE IN A WEEK OR SO YEARS WHO.O. IS GOING AGAINST US WE MAY WELL W W YOU'D TAKEN THE DEAL WAS OFFERED WAS BACK IN AUGUST AND TWENTY ONE AS JIM BURDEN AND A COUPLE OF PEOPLE MENTION WE'RE NEARLY OUT OF MONEY.Y.THIS IS JUSTST REALY

[376:03] THIS IS JUST A FACT.T. I IF YOU GO BACK TO LOOK AT THE CHART ESPECIALLY THE EVENING AND THAT'S ALL SET FORTH IN A MEMO THAT STUFF FILED A COUPLE WEEKS AGO.O. I IN THIS YEAR WE WILL HAVE SPENT TWENTY FIVE BILLION DOLLARS AND POSITION THUS EXCLUDING INTEREST OF COST US TWENTY FIVE MILLION DOLLARS IN CHECKS WRITTEN.N.MOST DEALERS MEASURES TWENTY NINE MILLION DOLLARS ON TWO DEFENDANTS WERE DOWN FOR LAST FOUR MILLION BUCKS TO PUT THAT FOUR MILLION DOLLARS IN PERSPECTIVE IN TWO THOUSAND AND NINETEEN.N.WEWE SPENT FIVE POINT TWO MILLION DOLLARS ON A NEW INITIATIVE PROJECT WILL SPEND FOUR POINT TWO MILLION DOLLARS NEW SET FOR FOUR MILLION DOLLARS IS ONLY LAST ANOTHER YEAR OR TWO..STEVE KANG SAID THIS EVENING ALL THE STORES WOULD HAVE TO LINE FOR THAT REMAINING FOUR MILLION DOLLARS TO DO THE TRICK..OVER THE NEXT TWO YEARS TO GET THE ALL THE NUMBERS FOR.. THE STARS DON'T ALIGN AND QUITE FRANKLY THE LAST TEN YEARS IF YOU HAVE NEVER ALIGNED FOR US.S. THAT WE WILL

[377:03] RUN OUT OF MONEY IN THE NEXT YEAR TO BE NO CLOSER TO HAVING FULL ACTIVE VOTERS DECIDE WHO SIMPLY DON'T HAVE A PLAN B.B. WE'RE NOT CLOSE TO THE NEW PEOPLE THAT.. ARE ELEVEN FIFTY NINE OR SISTER ON THE CORNERS CAN HAPPEN IF YOU MUST HAPPEN NEXT YEAR OR REALLY ARE NOT LOOKING AT THE FACTS.. FOR DISASTER IN THE THIRD CONDEMNATION ACTIONS TO YOUR SEVERAL YEARS WE LEGALLY COMPLETED AND THEN HIS NOSE THREE YEARS IN A MINIMUM SEPARATE THE TWO NETWORKS BY A BASEBALL ANALOGY.Y. WE MIGHT BE ON FIRST BASE A LONG LONG LONG WAYS TO GO BACK TO HOW.. I WANT TO OBSERVE THE GAP BETWEEN EXELON CITY IS MUCH NEARER NOW THAN WAS ON BACK AND POINTS IN THE STORE SINCE IT WENT BY WITH COMMUNITY.. THIS IS NOT OF UNI. BUT WERE MUCH MUCH CLOSER NOW THAN WERE A DECADE AGO IN PART BECAUSE OF SAUL'S THE LEGISLATURE TO MOVE.E. SIGNIFICANTLY ON CARBON REDUCTION WHICH WAS ONE OF THE PRINCIPLES OF THIS PACKAGE.. AND WE DON'T HAVE TO

[378:03] SPEND THREE TO FOUR MILLION DOLLARS.. T TO CLOSE A LITTLE GAP REMAINS BETWEEN WHAT WE HOPE WE GET IN WITH THE SUN WILL PROVIDE SEVERAL SPEAKERS COME TO THIS ALTHOUGH THIS WAS RUSHED PROCEEDING.. MIGHT POST A FEW FACTS.S. IF YOU THINK OF HIM AND BROUGHT ALL THE WAY FOR LAST FOUR MONTHS MEDIATION SESSIONS WE SHOULD ADDRESS THE DOCUMENTS WITH COMMUNITY.SO I JUST UNDERSTAND THIS..THISIS

[379:09] ACCUSATION OF THIS IS RUSSIA'S BEEN THIS HAS BEEN YEARS AND THE MAKING AND CERTAINLY MOST IN THE FINAL EDITION OF THE SUMMER.. ABOUT TONIGHT WERE OF COURSE WE'LL HAVE ANOTHER TO HAVE MUCH TO LOOK AT THIS BECAUSE THE VOTE AND I DON'T HAVE ANY DOUBT.T. THAT WILL BE A VERY VIGOROUS YES CAMPAIGN IN A VERY VIGOROUS NO CAMPAIGN AND VOTERS WILL BE CAN DO ALL SORTS OF INFORMATION WITH WHICH THEY CAN USE TO MAKE INFORMED DECISIONS.S.WINSTON CHURCHILL SAIDHOWEVER BEAUTIFUL THE STRATEGY YOU SHOULD OCCASIONALLY CONSIDER THE RESULTS.. ANDND RESULTS IN IMMUNITY WE HAVE CHECKED IN WITH THE VOTERS EVERY COUPLE OF YEARS.S. THAT HE DOESN'T AND A DOZEN ELEVEN IN TWO THOUSAND AND THIRTEEN TWO THOUSAND AND FOURTEEN TWO THOUSAND AND FIFTEEN TWO THOUSAND SEVENTY.Y. VOTERS THE

[380:01] SELECTIONS TOOLS TO GO FOR AND WE HAVE.E. PROMISED THE VOTERS GO NO GO VOTE IN TWO THOUSAND NINETEEN DOLLARS IN TWO THOUSAND AND TWENTY THEN OFF TO TWO DRAWS AND TWENTY ONE AND THEN OFF TO TWO THOUSAND TWENTY TWO MEASURES NIGHT.THAT'S PROBABLY PRETTY HELPFUL..WEWE HAVEN'T CHECKED N WITH VOTERS IS TO JUST SEVENTY IS THE LONGEST GAP WE HAVE ACCESS TO VOTERS WHO STILL WANT TO BE DOING THIS. WE HEARD FROM DOZENS OF SPEAKERS TONIGHT SOME WHO WANT TO VOTE.E.SOSO WHO DON'T WANNA KNOW MAYBE THEY'RE AFRAID OF THE OUTCOME.E.THIS IS BOULDER'S CIVIL WAR WERE SPLIT RIGHT DOWN NO COWS WERE TO DECIDE TONIGHT TO REFUSE TO PUT THIS ON THE BALLOT..THTE NINE OF US WOULD BE REJECTING THE SETTLEMENT AND DECIDING FOR THE VOTERS.S. I IS ON THE BALLOT EVERY LITTLE RESIN IN OUR COMMUNITY WILL HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO DECIDE AND THAT'S WHY IT'S BEEN A HUGE SELECTION OF THE LAST TEN YEARS.. MUCH HAS CHANGED IS THE ONLY BOAT LAST OCCURRED IN TWO THOUSAND SEVENTY.. IS

[381:01] NOW OVERDUE TIME TO LET VOTERS DECIDE WHETHER TO CONTINUE THE LITIGATION HAS BEEN ONE OF THE LAST TEN YEARS TO LITTLE EFFECT.T. OR TO ENTER INTO PARTNERSHIP WILL RESULT IN IMMEDIATE NEED FOR CLIMATE ACTION THAT IS RADICAL AND SKILL. TO DO ALL THAT WILL REMAIN FISCALLY RESPONSIBLE SO CLOSE AND OVER AND OVER THROUGH THIS DECADE LONG.NUMBER WE HAVE TRUSTED OUR VOTERS TO MAKE WISE DECISIONS..I STILL TRUST FOR VOTERS TO MAKE WISE DECISIONS FOR OUR COMMUNITY..THANKS T TO ALL COUNCIL MEMBERS ARE A THOUGHTFUL COMMENTS MUCH APPRECIATED HER MUCH ATTENTION ALL YOU HAVE GIVEN TO THIS DECISION BECAUSE IT IS A BIG DECISION..FORTUNATELY THE DECISION THAT SEEMS LIKELY THAT WILL MAKE IS TO VOTERS' DECISION.N. S SOO W WES FORWARD ON MAKING THE FINAL DECISION BY SEPTEMBER FIRST REGION TITLE OF A DOVE FORWARD SEPTEMBER FIRST AND THE VOTERS OF ALL THE INFORMATION DID SO ON..SOSO WIH

[382:13] THAT IN MIND AND SINCE IT IS LIKELY TO PASS.S. OR TWO ITEMS THAT ARE IN TERMSMS OF CALM.. AND THINK ABOUT ONE OF THE EYE IS THEHE SOLE NON PARTICIPATION IN TWENTY TWENTY SIX I DROPPED OUT SO WE HAVE THAT ONE TO GET RESOLVED AND PART OF THE MOTION.N.SECOND THING I ISS THT WE HAD A SIXTEEN MONTH QUESTION THAT RACHEL AND OTHERS ASKED ABOUT AND SO MY TURN TO YOU AND AND HAS SUGGESTIONS ON THOSE TWO ITEMS ON IT.T.WITH RESPECT TO THE MODIFICATIONS SO THE SELLER IS ACTUALLY PART OF THE FRANCHISE.E.OUOUR PROPOL

[383:02] FOR THAT IS THAT WE WILL MAKE THE TRIP BACK OF THE FIRST COUNCIL APPROVED THE CITY MANAGER ENTER INTO THOSE AGREEMENTS MOTION SO SEPARATE FROM THE WORDS PROCESS..I DON'T KNOW THAT YOU NEED TO TAKE CARE OF THAT TONIGHT WITH RESPECT TO THE FRANCHISE..I WOULD APPRECIATE COUNCIL AMEND ORDINANCE BEFORE ONE ZERO TO INCORPORATE ALL THE CHANGES THAT WERE MADE TO THE FRANCHISE'S FIRST READING..SO THOSE ARE ALL IN THE PACKET AND THERE ARE TWO VERSIONS ONE RED LINE WHEN HE INCORPORATES ALL OF THOSE SO WITH RESPECT TO SIXTEEN MONTHS ISSUE..I DRAFTED SOME LANGUAGE WHICH WILL READ ALOUD I DON'T KNOW SARAH OFFICIALLY SCREENS THAT CAN ALL READ WHAT I'VE WRITTEN IN.N. PARAGRAPH TWO POINT FIVE THE DETERMINATION CONTEMPLATED BY THIS SECTION TWO POINT FIVE. MAY BE AFFECTED BY THE CITY COUNCIL BY DECEMBER FIFTEEN AT LEAST SIXTEEN MONTHS AFTER THE RELEVANT RECORD A USABLE AND THE REST IS UNCHANGED..SOSO I I THINK THAT ALICE THAT'S WHEN YOU WERE SUGGESTING THAT WE JUST PICK A DECEMBER FIFTEEN..

[384:04] THEY MAKE ITIT S SO THAT THEIR X THE SIXTEEN MONTH RUN BUT I'M NOT SURE IF I CAPTURE AND USE THEM.M.II CAN'T DISPLAY FOR YOU BUT I DID MAKE YOU A CO HOST SO YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO SHARE YOUR SCREEN..OKAYAY PICTURES ARE USUALLY ABLE TO SEE THE LANGUAGE THOUGH WE CAN..I WAS DOING A LITTLE BIT TOM IF YOU CAN PICK A BETTERR PIC..THTHEE QUESTION WHY DOES T

[385:06] SAY AT LEAST SIXTEEN MONTHS AFTER THE RELEVANT TRADE TODAY.. COULDLD B BE A AS LONGR AS LATE AS DECEMBER FIFTEEN SIXTEEN MONTHS AFTER THE TRADE TODAY I JUST WANT US TO HAVE TO WAIT SIXTEEN MONTHS NECESSARILY. THE DEADLINE IS DECEMBER FIFTEEN THE FIRST SORT OF GIGGLY SIXTEEN..YOU CAN ALWAYS DO BEFORE THAT.. THE STATE ISSUES MIGHT BE EIGHTEEN MONTHS THAT WAS NEEDED BY THE MONSTER DOLLS HOUSES AND TREES AND FORGOT TO.O. DROP THE SUGGESTION FOR THE TIME WE SAYAY MAY BE AFFECTED BY THE CITY ON OR BEFORE THE DECEMBER FIFTEEN.. UMUM UMM THE DECEMBER SIXTEEN.N.

[386:20] UM WHICH I IS WHICH IS.S. PRETTY GD CONCEPT WHICH IS UM WHICH WHICH FOLLOWS THE TRIGGER DATE BY.. ALL THE OTHER I INN N OR BEFORE THE DECEMBER FIFTEENTH IN THE YEAR FOLLOWING THE RULING TRIGGERED A RECURRENCE OF THE ROAD TODAY.Y. THAT WE COULD HAVE A MINIMUM OF ELEVEN MONTHS THAT WHERE THE END OF THAT PERIOD IS AN ELECTION SO BECAUSE YOU PLENTY OF TIME THAT WE'D SEEN YOU'RE INTO NOVEMBER'S.S.THTHE CONCERN THAI

[387:00] WAS CARING FOR THEM. WAS THAT HE WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAD AT LEAST ONE NOVEMBER ELECTION WHERE YOU HAD MANY MONTHS TO PREPARE FOR IT.T. WERE THE PETITIONERS COULD CARRY A PETITION BY CITIZEN PETITION COULD BE IF I DIDN'T WANT TO EXIT BUT THERE WERE PETITIONERS WHO WANTED TO ADD THAT THEY HAVE BEEN MET..HERE ARE SOME CURRENT BOOK COMES OUT INTO THREE OF SAY TWENTY TWENTY THREE. THAT THE PETITIONERS ON ALL THE WAY UNTIL NOVEMBER TWENTY FOUR TO HAVE AN ELECTION IN OUR AREA YET IN THIS TO THE REPORT CAME OUT IN FEBRUARY.Y.YOYOU HE THAT WHOLE YEAR IN THE NEXT FULL YEAR TO.O. MOTORISTS JUST SOME FIFTEEN YEARS UM ELECTIONS ARE USUALLY A CERTIFIED LIKE THE THIRD OR FOURTH WEEK OF NOVEMBER IN ONE OF THE LITTLE BIT OF TIME FOR DELIVERY TO NOTICE ALL THE STUFF..YES THAT ISS ANDND E INJURY LIKE THAT YOU KNOW

[388:00] THAT YOU GET IT.T. IF THEY ISSUE THEIR REPORT IN.. DECEMBER AND THAT THE WHOLE NEXT ELEVEN MONTHS LEAGUE IS THERE SOME FREE TIME DURING WHICH CITY COUNCIL CONSIDERS WHETHER WE WOULD INITIATE IT AND THEN YOU'VE.. USED ATAT THE COMMUNITY'S TIMES A YEAR AFTER A PETITION. TO REMEMBER AND I TRUST COUNCIL TO TERMINATE AND I GOT UP TO LIKE MAYBEE MARCH OR APRIL AND I KNEW THE JUNE DEADLINE TO GET ON THE BALLOT..IT'S REALLY IT'S THE WAY IS ANY WEAKNESS A CHANGE IN THE THE SECOND VERSE OR TWO IT IS REALLY NOW.. M MY PERSON FOR THE AIR RIGHT NOW IS A PROVISION THAT ORDER THAT SAYS NO FRESH OCEAN WILL BE AWARDED BY EMERGENCY I WOULD BE CONSTRUED TO MEAN HE.E. ACTUALLY WORE THE FRANCHISE CRATES ANOTHER ARGUMENT FOR WE DO IT I WOULD BE MY PREFERENCE AGE SO MY RECOMMENDATION.N.SOSO I I THINK

[389:07] THIS DOES IT MEAN THAT GIVES NOT ONLY SAY TWO THREE SAY INN SEPTEMBER THE REPORT COMES OUT..COUNCIL HAS AT THAT POINT..SIX MONTHS WHICH SHOULD TAKE ACTION AND THAT THEY DON'T.. SAID THAT MEANS THAT MARCH OF THE FOLLOWING YEAR THAT YOU BEGIN CIRCULATING PETITIONS SO.O. THAT YOU LIKE IT GIVES THE COUNCIL LONG TIME. GUARANTEES THAT THE PEOPLE WILL HAVE A PETITION CYCLE THAT THEY CAN ACT ON AFTER THE COUNCIL'S HAD MONTHS TO DO SOMETHING SHOULD THEY CHOOSE ANY BENEFIT TO ST.T.OR SIXTEEN MONTHS WHICHEVER IS BENEFICIAL TO THE COMMUNITY..WEWE MET SHE

[390:01] COULD SAY FOR SIXTEEN MONTHS WHICHEVER IS GREATER.R. THE CHALLENGE THAT IS THAT YOU COULD END UP WITH THE SYSTEM APPEAR THAT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE YEAR.. WAS THE NICE THING ABOUT THIS STRUCTURE IS ALWAYS GOOD AND AFTER WATCHING. IT GIVES A FULL YEAR FOR PEOPLE TO DO WHATEVER HE DOES EVEN IF THE TARGET IS DECEMBER THIRTY FIRST OF JANUARY FIRST THE OIL UP TO SIX MONTHS.S.I THINK THIS IS MUCH BETTER AND MOST OF MY VERSION TO BE QUITE AMOROUS THIS WORKS.S. SO THAT I RECOMMEND A MOTION TO PASS ON SECOND READING ORDINANCE BEFORE TEN TEN TEN AS AMENDED IN THE PACKAGE IS A MAN SHOULD TWO POINT FIVE. WHICH AREAS YOU OK WITH US OR AWE IN FRONT OF DECEMBER..SORRYY

[391:07] BUT IF THE WORD THEHE IN FRONT OF DECEMBER THERE WERE RACIAL DESCENT WORK FREE..THTHEE ICELANDIC SURE WORKS RUIN..YOU KNOW THE CONCERNS OF COMMUNITY MEMBERS WERE RAISING ABOUT WHETHER IN A TIME AND I THINK IT WORKS AND WISH THAT WE CAN VERIFY.Y. I IF YOU ALL WHO HAVE MORE EXPERIENCE WITH THIS THING WORKS AND INTERESTING THINGS.S. TO SAYAY SO WITH THAT TOM JUST ADJOURNED TO THE MOTION PASSED ON SECOND READING AND EIGHTY FOUR CHAN. WITH THEHE CHANGES REFLECTED IN THE BACK AND WITH THAT AMENDMENT ABOUT THE DURATION OF THE CHURCH TODAY ARE JUST LOOKING FOR.R. IS I THINK WE ALSO LIKE TO AMEND SECTION TWO POINTS WERE CHANGED DECEMBER THIRTY FIRST DECEMBER FIFTEEN THAT WAS SOMETHING WE AGREE TO PREVIOUSLY I FORGOT TO CHANGE

[392:00] IT.T. SO THAT WE'RE NOT GIVING XL NOTICE OF DETERMINATION THE DAY BEFORE ITS EFFECTIVE.. AS THEY ASKSK FOROR THEIRIR FRE TIME TO STARE NOT A LOVELY ADDITION OF ANOTHER YEAR THAT EXCEL WOULD AGREE NOT TO MAKE CONTRIBUTIONS THAT WAS IN THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT.T.MY RECOMMENDATIONOK IT'T'S A A SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT THAT SAID SEOUL WOULD CONFIRM OCEAN OR LET THEM INTO MOTION.N. ALLLL THE HOUSES THAT WE ON SECOND READING. BEFORE TEN A CONCLUDING WITH THE AMENDMENTS TO SECTIONS TWO POINT FOUR TWO POINT FIVE DISCUSS THE SINKING OF THE PACK ARE UNANIMOUS THAT I THINK YOU CAN..OKOK WE HAVEVE A MOTION SECOND.D.II ALWAYAYS FAR

[393:23] AND HIS DIARIES IN YOUR HAND ON SCREEN NOW ON TWO THREE FOUR FIVE SIX SIX IN FAVOR OF CAUSATION AND SEE ADAM SUPPOSE SHE. WAS OKAY SIR TO OPPOSE THE MOTION PASSES SIX TO TWO.O.SOSO THENN TOMOM I IFT MISTAKEN WE WOULD MOVE ON TO THE UTILITY OCCUPATION TAX.X. CORRECT YES WE SHOULD PASS I IT IT'S OK FOR NINETEEN ON FIRST READING SALUTES FOR THE SECOND READING FOR CLASSES AND CAN JUST BE SURE TO PASS.S.

[394:15] OUT O OR THE CITY FOR NINETY NINE FOR SPEEDING ON FAVORITE AND THEY SAID WAS AN ENGINE AND SIX TO TWO OR EVEN FOR NINETEEN YEARS WELL.. BEFORE SIXTEEN THIRTY FOUR SEVENTEEN DO YOU WANT A PASSABLE THE FIRST READING.. SAYAYS I IF YOU WANT TO CHANGE SO.O. MANY CHANGES WITH MY RECOMMENDATION.N. IS TO MAKE HIM EVERY NOW AND HAS THE SECOND HE AS THE VACATIONS THEY JUST WANT THE CITY FOR SIXTEEN WHICH JUST RE PURPOSE.. THEN YOU SHOULD JUST YOU CAN JUST CONTINUE THAT

[395:00] FIRST WEEK OF PAST HUMAN TO SCHOOL AT THAT FOR A COUPLE VERY MINOR TECHNICAL AMENDMENTS THAT WOULD SUGGEST YOU ONE THAT YOU MIGHT CHOOSE TO.BEFORE I KNEW I WOULD TELL US ABOUT THE MOUSSAOUI DEFENSE WHICH ONE TO MOVE FORWARD..WELL SO ONCE THESE WORDS MISSPELLED IMPLEMENTING A THIRD BULLET IN THE END BOTH OF THEM IN.N.FOFOR SIXTEEN ON PACKARD THE TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTY SIX.X.I WOULD SUGGEST THAT YOU STRIKE SHAWL IN THE LAST CLAUSE OF THE BALLOT TITLE.E.THTHE INCREASE N EXTENDING PORTIONS OF THE WEEK THAT TERM.M. AND THIS IS SIMILAR BUT SMALLER CHANGE THAT I WOULD SUGGEST IF YOU DECIDE TO AMEND EXTEND THAT SAME IN THE SAME CAUSE IN THE OTHER ORGANS. IS THEY THINK WE NEED TO DO NOW IS DECIDE.E.

[396:16] FIRST DO WE WANT TOO REPURPOSE IT. AS A COMPANION MEASURE TO BE THE FRANCHISE EVERY PURPOSE AND AT LEAST FOR TWO YEARS ALLOWS PARTNERSHIP THAT THE FRANCHISE PASSES TO HAVE SOME ABILITY TO INITIATE THE PROJECTS FROM THE WORK GOING FORWARD..MYMY PERSONAL OPINION IS I WOULD SUPPORT RE PURPOSE AN EXTENT IN ALL THE WAY TO TWENTY AND THIRTY BECAUSE THAT IS.S. THE WORK ON THE BOULDER SIDE ALL THE WAY THROUGH WHEN WE'RE DONE WITH THE LANSDOWNE SOULS GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS.S.SOSO PERSONALLY BUT OUT THERE I WOULD EXTEND IT AND WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK OF THE HANDS OF MY FARMER KNOWS THIS INSTANCE.E. AND HINTED AT THIS

[397:02] EARLY IN THE NIGHT THE HIGHWAY REPURPOSED TO HOLD A VOTE ON EXTENDING INTO NEXT YEAR AND WE SEE WHERE PEOPLE ARE WITH THEM.M.KOVAVAN ANDND I THINK FOR THEHE TAX RELIEF RIGHT NOW FOR OUR COMMUNITY MEMBERS OR AT LEAST WAITING TO ASK FOR FURTHER TAX COLLECTION WOULD MAKE SENSE TO ME.AARON ADAMS AND MARY ANN..I WOULD GO A STEP FURTHER AND NOT PASS EITHER OF THEM.. IT'S NOT A HUGE POT OF MONEY BUT IT IS CONSEQUENTIAL FOR SOME FOLKS AND IT DOES.S. I THINK IT ISS OF BEING MORE MONEY PERCENTAGE.E. WISE FOR LOWER INCOME FOLKS AND THEN FOR HIGHER INCOME FOLKS AND GIVEN THE FINANCIAL DIFFICULTIES A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVING.G. RIGHT NOW I WOULD LAPSE THIS YEAR AND THEN COME BACK TO IT IN A YEAR OR TWO AND HOPEFULLY THE FINANCIAL PICTURES BETTER FOR ME.E.ADAMAI

[398:06] COULD DO FOR THEM BUT I THINK REPURPOSING IS KIND OF IMPORTANT BECAUSE IT WAS PRETTY CLEAR THAT IF THIS PASSES THERE ISN'T EXACTLY A LOT OF EQUITY.. SORT ITEMS INVOLVED IN THIS THIS PHONE MIGHT BE ON THE WAY TO PROVIDE THOSE THROUGH THE AGREEMENT SO THAT'S WHY I THINK YOU WOULD BE IMPORTANT TO AT LEAST EXTEND. EXTEND BUT RE PURPOSE HERE.E.II READ THAT MARY AND MARK A QUESTION FOR BOB BOB HAD BROUGHT UP THE IDEA OF THE CAP TAX IS COMING UP AND IT SOMEHOW AND YOU REALIZE THAT.T. I ISS JUSTA MUSEUM THAT BECAUSE OF THE ACTS AS A VERY GOOD PURPOSES AND WILL BE ROBBING PETER TO PAY PAUL CAN YOU OR JUMP IN NOW.. THAT'S EXACTLY RIGHT ON

[399:05] THE CAP TAXES DEDICATED FUNDING ALREADY FOR PROJECTS.S. THAT WE ARE FUNDING INCLUDING STAFF MEMBERS THAT ARE DOING THOSE OTHER PROJECTS.S. ANDND WERE VERY STRONGLY URGING YOU.. T TO AT LEAST PASS THE ORDINANCE THAT RE PURPOSES THESE FUNDS SO THAT WE CAN BE A FULL PARTNER WITH XL IF THE FRANCHISE WORTH OF GAS.S. W WE NEED TO RETAIN STAFF TO WORK WITH THEM ON MANY PROJECTS THAT WE ARE HOPEFUL TO INITIATE.E.OKAY AND THEN MARKR. YEAH I WANT TOTO D DOO SOMETHING RACIAL.L.I'I'M IN FAVOROR OF REPURPOSING AND EXTENDING BUT I DON'T KNOW THAT WE NEED TO DO IT IMMEDIATELY..AND IT MIGHT BE JUST AS A A PARTICULAR TIME URGENCY IN DOING IT RIGHT NOW YOU WOULDN'T JUDGE

[400:00] ME EITHER A FEW WEEKS OR WAIT FOR THE VOTE.E.MUCHCH OF WHAT E URGENCY IS TO GET IT DONE AT TWELVE THIRTY SIX TODAY..WELLLL BRIEFLY SUM UPP THE ISSUE THAT AS A COUNSELOR OF CRUSOE IS NOT GOING TO CHANGE THE RHETORIC DEDICATION TO GET THROUGH THE PROCESS.. ANDND I'E GOT A RECIPE FOR MY STACK GOING TO MAKE SURE THESE ARE CALLED BY THE ORIGINAL MARY ANN AND BOB MITCHELL IS SOMETHING MY ALARM AND THAT'S ALL.OK AARON ABOVEYEAH I DID ACTUALLY HAVE SOMETHING..DID DI HAD NOT GOTTEN QUITE THAT STRONG RECOMMENDATION FROM STAFF BEFORE.E. SO THATAT DID T

[401:09] REALIZE.. HOW MUCH SHE FELT LIKE THAT REVENUE WAS CRITICAL BUT SOO MAYBE I MIGHT SAY I DO SEE THAT ONE OF THE STATED PURPOSES IS THE LOW INCOME ENERGY.Y. FUND FOR THAT SO IF WE R RE PURPOSE AND THAT WAS A STRONG COMPONENT OF THE REVENUE TO THE WE ARE REALLY USING IT TO HELP PEOPLE.E. STRUGGLING TO GET BY WITH THEIR ENERGY BILLS RIGHT NOW AND I COULD SUPPORT A REPURPOSING.. PARSONS ANDND I I APOLOGIZE THAT WE DIDN'T COME OUT AS STRONGLY.Y. AROUND THIS BECAUSE THE FOCUS WAS OF COURSE ON THE FRANCHISE IN THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AND MAKING SURE THAT EVERYONE UNDERSTOOD THAT.. BUT A AS JONATHAN TALKED ABOUT WE HAVE A STRONG COMMITMENT TO SOCIAL EQUITY AND RACIAL EQUITY.Y. AND

[402:02] OUR MUNI WAS ALL ABOUT THAT AND THIS PARTNERSHIP NEEDS TO BE ABOUT AS WELL.L. A AS OBSERE THE ABILITY TO DO SOMETHING WRONG HERE IF WE DON'T DO ANYTHING THIS JUST GREAT NOW SHARE.. IN THE FRANCHISE PASSES THAT TAX GOES AWAY AUTOMATICALLY GOES WITH IT WAS WRITTEN TWO THOUSAND SEVENTEEN.. I IS ONCE WE STOP PURSUING COMMUNITY THAT ACTS AUTOMATICALLY EXPIRES SO WE LOSE THE MONEY AND YOU LOSE THE TAX.. IN ORDER TO GET BACK THE EARLIEST WE COULD THEN VOTE ON THAT BECAUSE AFTER REMOVAL OF THE NOVEMBER EIGHT TWENTY TWENTY ONE AND WE WOULD ACTUALLY BE CREATING NEW TAX..SOSO RIGHT NOW WE CAN REPURPOSE IT AND NOT CREATING NEW TAX..IF W WE ALLOW IT TO LAPSE LOVE NO FUNDING NEXT YEAR FOR THE PROJECTS IS BEING MENTIONED.. AND WE WOULD HAVE WANTED TO HAVE A TAX PACKAGE AS THE VOTERS TO RE TAX THEMSELVES SO I THINK ONE THING VERY VERY CAREFUL ABOUT LETTING THIS FIRE.E.IT'S A A

[403:00] DEBATE ABOUT WHETHER WE UM WE.E. DON'T EXTEND TO FIVE YEARS TO TEN YEARS THAT'S A GOOD DEBATE BUT I THINK ALLOWING IT TO LAPSE WOULD BE SOMETHING WE WOULD PROBABLY REGRET AND THAT RYAN HAD ROASTED CONSENSUS HERE.E.I THINK THERE'S GOOD SUPPORT FOR REPURPOSING AND I'VE. BECOME CONVINCED THAT IF WE RE PURPOSE IT GIVES US ENOUGH TIME TO LOOK AT HOW THE BISHOPS PERFORMING WITH THE MONEY IS FOR HOWARD'S WORK AND SO THAT IN TWENTY TWENTY TWO..WE WANTED TO EXTEND THE TAX FURTHER WITHOUT INCREASING TAXES AND WE ALSO WENT BACK TO WORK OR NOT..SOSO I'M GOING TO PROPOSE THAT WE MOVE FORWARD WITH A FORCECE OF CANAAN WITH AMENDMENTS THAT SUGGESTED PEOPLE FEEL ABOUT THAT. JUST TO CLARIFY BEFORE SIXTEEN IS TO REPURPOSE BUT NOT THE EXTENSION THAT'S CORRECT ISN'T HE.E.POR SEVENTEEN IS THE

[404:15] RE PURPOSE AN EXTENSION AND OF COURSE EXPLAINS SIMPLY REPURPOSE FOR THE DURATION OF THE TAX.X. ARERE ANY INTERET TO TWENTY TWENTY SIX IS OUR FIRST MAKE YOUR STAY AND HE ON THE NEW ARRANGEMENT..ABOUT AN EXTENSION OF TIME IN TWENTY TWENTY SIX CENTS..I WOULD SUPPORT THAT CLARIFICATION THOUGH I THINK OUR DECISION DECISION ON THAT HE MADE THE DECEMBER TWENTY TWENTY FIVE OR TO SOME TWENTY SIX TWENTY SIX BOB AND I THINK ABOUT IT.T.THTHE FIVE YER

[405:00] ARM RATE AT DECEMBER TWO TWENTY TWENTY FIVE.E. YEARSRS AFTER THE NINETEEN TWENTY FIVE BECAUSE WE WANT THE VOTES UNTIL THE DECEMBER FIFTEEN TWENTY TWENTY FIVE THAT WE WON OUT.. IN N A DEFECT IN GENERAL ONE TWENTY TWENTY SIX SO THEY PRESUMABLY WOULD BE TWENTY TWENTY FIVE AS WELL.L.I READAD THAT IT'S JUSTA MODEST EXTENSION OF THINGS WORKING WELL HE DOES IT EXTEND FURTHER.R.I PERSONALLY WOULDN'T SUPPORT AN EXTENSION BUT YOU'LL CAN DO TWENTY.Y.SOSO WHAT'S TO STOP ALL THIS WE DON'T HAVE TO BE AROUND THE BUSH WHO WOULD SUPPORT AN EXTENSION UNTIL THE FREE DO THAT UM. JUST I JUST WANTED A CLARIFICATION WITH THE AMENDMENT IS THE INSANE DAVID..I'VEVE YETET T TO MISS T

[406:09] FACE SO THEHE OTHERER O OR AREE CHANGES ARE SOME HORRIBLE ORDINANCE NUMBER EIGHTY FOUR ONE SEVEN AT AGE TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY IN THE THIRD OR IN THE BALLOT TITLE IS THAT WE'RE.. IMPLEMENTING JUST MISSED ALSO PROPOSE TO AMEND OR CORRECT SPELLING AND AND WE WOULD BELIEVE.E. SHALL BE ITS OWN REASON AND SHALL THE NEWLY INCREASED AND EXTENDED PORTIONS OF ARTICLES ON EXTENDED PORTIONS OF THE TAX BE SUBJECT TO THE SAME TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE ORIGINAL TAX.X.THANK YOU FOR THAT.T.SOSO I I THINK THEHE TWO CHOICES IN FRONT OF US OR REPURPOSE OR REPURPOSE AN
