Minutes note: Mr. Shambarger said he had gotten a lot of comments, some of which were proofreading, which he appreciates. He also received pages of re-writes, which can't be done at this stage.
Ms. Ritger thanked members for their comments.
The Accountability Work Group had a recommendation for the accountability chapter, which resulted in the addition of 4 bullet points. These points relate to periodic reports to the Steering and Rules Committee and updates to the cit]y's web site.
Ms Fendt moved to include these four bullet points, as presented, seconded by Ms. Frank. There were no objections.
Mr. Wiggins also wanted a bullet point added for tracking equity. Mr. Shambarger would not support this as it's covered elsewhere in the implementation.
Adding the need for subsidized traditional jobs under the Green Job Accelerator section.
Ms. Kerksick moved, seconded by Mr. Smith. Ms. Fendt would like to have earn-as-you-learn apprenticeships included this section as well, which are currently existing programs or other existing programs. Mr. Smith suggested adding a 2nd bullet point relating to Ms. Fendt's comments. Mr. Smith agreed. Ms. Frank suggested Ms. Fendt created draft language in the comments section - Ms. Kerksick wants to work offline with Ms. Fendt and the ECO office to create connecting language.
Ms. Kerksick said the vast majority of specific recommendations are reflected through the city infrastructure, but the report can be accepted by both the county and the city.
Ald. Brostoff would like to move forward at this point particularly in regards to federal timelines.
Mr. Shambarger moved to add the new sentence on the screen typed by Ms. Ritger and a sentence would be added to connect the two.
Ms. Pritchard moved that Pam Fendt, Julie Kerksick and Rafael Smith consult with the ECO Office to approve the language to be created offline this week, seconded by Mr. Smith. There were no objections.
Adding text as to why this is important (suggested by Ms. Fendt).
An explanation will be added to the wage table.
Adding a call-about box relating to using American labor and union jobs.
Ms. Pritchard Kerksick moved to accept the above three changes, seconded by Ms. Fendt. There were no objections.
Ms. Kerksick offered three paragraphs on behalf of Sup. Coggs-Jones about the county's plans to present this report. Ald. Brostoff asked if the language is to be added to the plan or is this a county plan-of-action? Ms. Kerksick thinks it is a little bit cloudy and she was trying to wrap this up as part of the outcomes. She would like to see this as part of the county's commitment as part of the record. The three paragraphs read:
Co-Chair Coggs-Jones will work with Erick Shambarger and Work Group Chairs to present the final report of the CCTFCEE and its Ten Big Ideas to the appropriate County committees of the Board of Supervisors. At this time, we anticipate returning to the Committee on Community, Environment and Economic Development (CEED) and possibly presenting the relevant sections to the Committee on Transportation and Transit.
Gordie Bennett, Sustainability Director for Milwaukee County, has engaged the County Executive's office in how things are moving, and they are broadly supportive and open to dialogue about how the Ten Big Ideas fit with County areas of responsibility and the Climate Action Plan 2050 that is in development right now.
Gordie Bennett has invited members of the Task Force and interested community volunteers to provide input to the Climate Action 2050 plan; he is planning to provide an informational report on it to the County Board in May 2023--this report will refer to the CCTFCEE plan. He will also inform the Milwaukee County Sustainability Task Force of the CCTFCEE report, and CA50 Plan consultants will evaluate opportunities for Milwaukee County to support the Ten Big Ideas.
Ms. Frank moved to approve the amended final report, seconded by Ms. Kerksick. There were no objections.
Meeting adjourned: 3:09 P.M.
