City Planning Commission - Regular Meeting

Here, 889 KM OJ, the station of the people, it's 2 p.m., but it's time for one of my favorite shows on COG. That's right. It's Minneapolis 360, with one of my favorite people in the Twin Cities. Oh, you're also one of my favorites, Kim. You always bring the sun, the light, this magnificent aura that illuminates a room when you enter it. T'es trop gentil. Trop gentil. C'est la pure vérité. C'est la pure vérité. Eh bien, j'apprécie. Un petit coucou à notre frère Anthony Taylor. J'espère qu'il nous écoute du côté de la ville de Minneapolis. Il est en vacances en ce moment. En fait, notre frère Anthony est à Chicago. Ah, sans blague. Il en profite bien. Comme il se doit. Il le mérite.

Il se doit, car tout ce qu'il fait d'habitude, c'est rentrer chez lui au Wisconsin pour voir sa mère.

Exactement. Alors là, il a enfin l'occasion de faire quelque chose et de se faire plaisir. Oh, that makes me so happy for him. We're delighted for him. I'll have to send him a text message to tell him to go ahead. I know, right? Well, we have a very special show today because... A very special show with a very special guest here in our premises. In our premises. So we've always had him, yes, we've always had him on the air. However, he never really came physically here with us. So it's a real pleasure to have him with us today. I'll let you introduce him. Well, you know what? I'm going to tell you a little anecdote before presenting it. It's a colleague, a colleague who was present during my very first interview for the city. He was there and I told myself that he hated me. I told myself that I would never have sequels. I would not have a second interview. But he was very smiling and friendly. And he was also my very first guest when I resumed the show in January. Okay, I didn't know you were there. Well, actually, I think I was absent this weekend. I was in California or something like that.

I think so.

But Aria was my very first guest in January 2026, when I resumed the show for the very first time. He made you comfortable. Exactly. It was really great. So it's a moment that loops the loop. You know, he was there during my first interview. He was there for my very first show and now he's back with us in the building. So, Aria, welcome to KMOJ and Minneapolis 360. Thank you for having me. Of course, we love that. So, let's talk a little bit about your role, because I didn't even know you had, you know, had an interview with her. With her. So, it was a novelty for me. I think I'm used to hearing about you through the partnership engagement fund, but I don't know everything you do in the city.

So, thank you for inviting me, first of all. I'm always happy to be here.

Welcome back.

Nous travaillons toutes deux au département des relations de voisinage et communautaire. La partie voisinage concerne les organisations de quartier qui existent à Minneapolis. Elles existent depuis plus de 30 ans et sont largement financées par la ville pour garantir que chacun ait une organisation de quartier qui le représente.

C'est un travail très important.

J'ai fait mes armes en intégrant le conseil de mon quartier ici dans le quartier near north, Willard A., The NERC is the neighborhood organization of the Northside Resident Redevelopment Council. And so, when I moved to North Minneapolis more than 20 years ago, to raise my children, I got involved in the neighborhood organization here.

Oh, that's great.

Then I joined the Cleveland neighborhood. Executive director of the office of the Cleveland neighborhood association, based in Lucille and Ney, up there in Pen-et-Laurie. Great, no. A lot of love on all sides. And then I started working. I wanted to get involved in the department that provides support and funding to neighborhood organizations. It's the neighborhood relations service, like us. My role is therefore to work with these neighbourhood organizations. The majority of North Minneapolis and a good part of the South District organizations and my colleagues, I'm not going to mention everyone, but we have a team, the neighbourhood team, who works with these organizations. And the thing for which you know me and which I came to talk about today is the partnership engagement fund, a funding that was launched in 2020-2021. When we examined the financing of the neighbourhoods, we recognized that not everyone is served by our neighbourhood organizations, right? We have a lot of people, new immigrants, people who don't speak English, young people. Some people who have been historically removed from citizen engagement are not necessarily represented within neighbourhood organisations. The partnership engagement fund has really started, under the framework of equity, to ask ourselves how to finance directly the organisations that work with people who are historically underrepresented in access to city resources.

J'adore ça, c'est un travail tellement important car il y a tant de gens dans la communauté qui ont été historiquement tenus à l'écart de certains types de financement et marginalisés alors qu'ils font un travail incroyable.

Avoir l'opportunité de recevoir des fonds pour lancer leur projet est génial. C'est vraiment important.

C'est très important. Et en tant que bénéficiaire ? Oh, mom and Kim, I didn't know that. Yes, last year I was a beneficiary. My program is still in progress. Make a small dedication. Join the initiative Rise to Wealth and Success. Let me tell you that since I started working at KMOJ in 2016, I was predicted to be supposed to help women and young girls. I believe so. Although this program is open to all, 90% of the class is made up of women.

I love that.

Des femmes de couleur et leurs histoires, mon cœur a fondu. Une dame a pleuré dès le premier cours parce qu'elle avait tenté de mettre fin à ses jours la semaine précédente. Et elle a dit, cela m'a redonné espoir ingé. Et ça me donne l'impression que je peux surmonter les épreuves in time. Elle était à bout, elle n'en pouvait plus.

I love that.

All these different stories. A young girl had such a low self-confidence. When she arrived in class, she wondered why someone would want to pay for my company, for my writing and my creative skills. And she got her first contract. Let me tell you that she is a totally different person now. I know. It's clear. It's clear. It's clear. I love it so much because we now have a witness to the incredible work and the results of what this program has accomplished. A seed has been planted and now it bears its fruits. And Aria, finally, just gave her wonderful testimony on what the partnership engagement fund has done for her, but also for other women in the community. Would you have other organizations or examples in mind regarding the use of the engagement program funds? And how did you concretely see the impact and the realization of this equity goal?

In fact, I could spend the day talking about it. I recognize that one of the aspects that I love about this work is that it is really focused on the community, isn't it? We have members of the community, whether they are individuals or groups, who, with a tax agent or a non-profit organization, come to tell us, I have an idea that, in my opinion, will benefit my community. And we have an examination committee made up of residents of the neighborhoods who say, we are studying these projects and we really think that they will have a significant impact on the field. It is financed by the city, so municipal representatives are involved, followed by approval by the municipal council. But what I like about this work is that I have the chance to hear about the incredible ideas that people have. And most of the time, it comes from passionate people who have been doing this for a long time. They have dug into their own economies to finance their work, leaving their sweat, their blood, their tears, you know, their hours of volunteer work, you know, their hours of volunteer work. On their free time, by working full time next door, they come to accomplish a precious work with young people, elders or some of our new immigrants. C'est donc l'un des aspects que j'adore dans ce travail. Il existe une multitude d'exemples du genre de projet qui voit le jour grâce aux fonds d'engagement. J'essaie d'en trouver quelques-uns que nous pourrions citer rapidement.

Non, ce n'est pas grave. Et sans cet argent, ils n'auraient probablement pas pu concrétiser leurs organisations, ce rêve ou cette vision de la manière dont ils l'auraient souhaité.

I often say that it's a catalyst for growth, isn't it? A lot of people have been doing this job for a long time, and it's sometimes their very first financing. Sometimes they get additional financing from the city in the following years. Other times, these people get funds from the foundation. We have seen examples of people simply starting from an idea to finally succeed in making it happen. It is a small, generally punctual financing of about $25,000 over 12 or 18 months. And it really was a catalyst to allow them to grow and launch something bigger.

This has a huge impact. This little seed, and let me tell you first-hand that I have witnessed and I keep hearing only very good things about this subject and... It's incredible. You're going to say something else about...

I mean, I could give some examples of projects, right? So, there are a number of projects that concern young people. I think that's where I think of the work that neighbourhood organizations do and the work we have in the community and the city. Young people are often the most directly affected by these long-term decisions that we take and are often the least represented by having a voice here. And so we have seen examples of young people in a journalism program, for example, learning to conduct interviews and to be informed about what is happening, to engage civically, to attend meetings of the municipal council, to learn to have an impact and simply to work in their community. We have seen on Lake Street, a number of our young Latino residents do both cleaning the neighborhood along the pavement as well as developing leadership. You know, It was really exciting to see the young people also leading the charge. We had a bilingual collective, it's another group that works in our Hispanic community, but in the schools of the neighborhood, Ella Baker, Justice Page, some others also who propose ideas and were the ones who last year asked for funding and received it. So there, and then others, once again, I will just insist on the young people, the candidates who have arrived, who are really focused on young people, by young people and for young people.

J'adore ça. J'adore ces enfants. Donc, tout ce que nous pouvons faire pour les soutenir, les élever, les financer, croire en eux parce qu'ils sont tellement plein d'idées et chaque fois que je pense que je perds espoir. Dans la société, je parle à mes enfants ou à nos stagiaires qui sont dans notre bureau cet été ou juste aux jeunes autour de moi et je me souviens que tout n'est pas perdu parce qu'ils sont là pour nous mener vers l'avenir. Vous savez ? And we must simply give them what we have, whether it be wisdom, pleasure, inspiration, whatever it takes, so that they can do what they want to accomplish. And also be this catalyst for them. Absolutely, absolutely.

And where is the partnership engagement fund at the moment, Mr. Haria, while we... Well, in a way, we have news from last week.

Je vais commencer par ce pourquoi nous sommes venus initialement à savoir que le fonds d'engagement de partenariat a ouvert ses candidatures le 6 juillet. Donc, nous permettons aux gens de soumettre leur formulaire d'intérêt. C'est généralement la première étape. Comme vous le savez, mademoiselle Kim, nous essayons d'être très proactifs dans nos échanges avec les résidents qui souhaitent postuler. L'intérêt, c'est simplement dire, hé, j'ai cette idée, voilà ce que je compte proposer. Cela nous permet de repérer les candidats pour les guider. Moi, voici comment naviguer dans le processus municipal. Comment devenir fournisseur de la ville. Voici les étapes à suivre. Heu, gueux. Voici les étapes à suivre. Ce formulaire d'intérêt est en ligne. Cherchez Partnership, Hermant Fund, Minneapolis et Gueux sur Google et les gens peuvent le remplir. Ensuite, il y a le processus de candidature. Le formulaire d'intérêt doit être rendu le 21 août et le dossier complet le 18 septembre. In the meantime, we have planned a technical assistance. This is what we came to talk about today. I must also share that the mayor has just proposed a budget. The functioning of the budgets in the city of Minneapolis wants the budget for 2027 to be decided between now and December. Just an hour before our arrival, the mayor presented a budget and this budget proposal suggests to delete the partnership engagement fund. To delete it.

To delete it.

We don't know exactly what that means yet. It's just a proposal. We will talk a little today about the budget process in terms of decisions, but for now, it simply means that we manage the fund. We might need to suspend the process. We are not quite sure, but the candidacy process for 2027 concerns a funding that is currently proposed for the removal.

Okay, Mayor Frey. Go ahead, make an effort.

We will question you. Mayor Frey, we need this fund. It was useful to the community.

It is vital to the community.

That's true. But I understand that everyone needs a budget and I understand that, you know...

It's complicated. It's very complicated. Really. Really. But we continue to call for help at this time. Exactly. So, as we have listened to the wonderful work accomplished by the partnership engagement fund, we have Mekim here as a personal testimony of the fruits he brought and you have shared stories about his impact on young people and the community. For those who are listening to us, can you explain a little bit about the budget process and its functioning and how he could intervene to say, I want to do something because it seems so extraordinary. We can't let our city give up on that.

Yes, I am happy to answer this question. So, I would say that we have to manage certain dynamics here where my role is, I simply recognize that there is currently funding, there are ongoing projects until the end of 2026. My role and our role is to support and provide technical support for ongoing projects. Regarding the budgetary process, our role is really to support the budget, whatever it is. So what I'm going to share now is how people can get involved to make their voice heard about what's going on in the budget. A lot of things are happening. The partnership engagement fund is only one element. Among others, there have been a number of proposed cuts. People can consult the media channel that interests them. But as for the functioning of the city's budgetary process, I will do my best to explain it. The mayor has just presented a proposal This proposal includes a tax relief, i.e. a potential tax increase, and this must be submitted to the Estimation and Taxation Council, which will meet in September. And then the normal process will follow, and all this information will be on the city's website. So once again, budget of Minneapolis would find a web page of the city that contains this information. There will be what is called a big budgetary book, hundreds of pages detailing what has been proposed. Then the normal processes generally include a form of contribution from the community. There are a number of meetings of the municipal council and sometimes budgetary hearings where it is possible to make public comments. It is the municipal council that finally makes the decision concerning the final elements of the budget. Once again, the partnership engagement fund represents less than 1% of the global budget. There are therefore many proposed changes, many cuts that are proposed. And so, if people want to know more about what is proposed, give your opinion on what is happening. The best opportunity for this is to look for the details on the website of the city, on the budget pages, on the... But there will probably be opportunities to contact your municipal councils and give your opinion during public hearings. This will probably take place from here, probably from September, after the Council for Estimation and Taxation. This is what we call the BET vote, and this will take place in November or December, when the budget will be finalized.

But you did an excellent job to explain that. Exactly. He is modest, he did a remarkable job. Ce que je trouve génial, c'est que quand nous réfléchissons à l'engagement civique, à la démocratie et à notre système, c'est une opportunité incroyable pour les citoyens ordinaires de dire, je veux faire partie de ce processus civique et accomplir un devoir civique qui va au-delà du simple vote. Car voter est une chose. Et il existe un moyen de s'engager en tant que verbe et de vraiment s'impliquer. Donc, comme vous l'avez dit, peuvent-ils appeler leurs conseillers municipaux? Vous pouvez appeler ou envoyer un email à vos conseillers municipaux. Vous pouvez vous présenter aux réunions. Vous avez mentionné les audiences publiques. Voulez-vous expliquer un peu à ceux qui n'ont jamais assisté à une audience publique à quoi cela ressemble et ce que cela signifie pour eux, comment ils peuvent participer?

Oui, j'adore ça, car quelle que soit la raison, il y a une opportunité de s'impliquer et d'avoir une voix. C'est vraiment pour cela que les organisations de quartier ont été créées pour donner aux gens l'opportunité de s'engager civiquement de manière significative. Et donc, pour faire très simple, si vous n'êtes jamais venu, et nous dirons que c'est similaire pour les conseils scolaires et les conseils des parcs, la plupart de ces instances, y compris le conseil municipal, tiennent une réunion mensuelle. Et à l'ordre du jour, quel que soit le sujet, il y a parfois une possibilité de faire des commentaires publics. En général, pour le conseil municipal, cela se passe au centre-ville, à l'hôtel de ville, où se trouve la salle du conseil. Souvent, ces réunions ont lieu pendant la journée. D'accord. Nous reconnaissons que ces deux points peuvent constituer des obstacles à la participation. Mais vous avez l'opportunité d'aller faire un commentaire public, ce qui vous donne généralement deux minutes au micro pour partager directement avec les conseillers votre avis ou votre point de vue sur la question à aborder. Some of these meetings sometimes start at 6 p.m. and there are more than 100 people who want to express themselves and who have something to say. So it can take a really long time. But it's the official way to make a public comment. Again, it's less about this specific question than the budget, if it's something that motivates you. But for everything that really interests you, beyond, as you said, the vote in November, it's the opportunity to express yourself on the subject. If you don't know your municipal advisor, and I add the school council or the park council, Il existe des moyens simples de le savoir. Je n'ai pas de site web précis en tête, mais cherchez qui sont vos conseillers municipaux et vos représentants et vous pourrez les contacter directement à demander à obtenir un créneau dans leur agenda. Beaucoup d'entre eux organisent des permanences dans les quartiers. Vous pouvez donc vous rendre dans votre quartier et parler à votre conseiller municipal de n'importe quel sujet important pour vous.

Oui, j'adore ça. Je pense vraiment que dans notre processus démocratique, c'est quelque chose vers lequel nous devons tendre, plutôt que de se dire, j'ai fait mon travail, j'ai coché une case de queue, mais qu'est-ce qu'on fait ensuite ? Vous voyez ? White. C'est une façon de concevoir la démocratie comme une action, comme un verbe, pour faire entendre sa voix, littéralement. You can take a microphone, there are a lot of people in the community who have incredible things to say and who don't always have the opportunity. So an excellent way to put your needs in the foreground. And also, in terms of transparency, having the budget online, being able to examine it to see what is deleted, what is proposed, to forge an opinion, then to be able to express it. It's really very important and necessary. Aria, can you explain quickly, to deviate a little bit from the subject, your work with the district councils and how it constitutes a pathway for civic engagement? I know that some people you know have started in their district to finally introduce themselves to the municipal council. Absolutely.

I'm glad we're talking about this point because that's exactly what I wanted to talk about. The neighborhood organizations, and I emphasize that in the current proposal, no budget cut is planned for them. In the entire city of Minneapolis, there are 65 neighborhood organizations. These organizations receive a total of about 4 million dollars of funding per year. They also have historical funds, i.e. other financial resources at their disposal. What I love about these organizations is that they are one of the simplest entry points towards civic engagement, right? As you said, and I think this has been historically verified, many municipal councilors and other elected officials often start in small structures, such as these neighborhood organizations. You can do online research, but if you live in Minneapolis, there is necessarily a neighborhood organization that represents you. Sometimes it is a group of 5 to 10 volunteers who sit at the administration council of the organization. Sometimes they have an employee, sometimes not. But this group of people is elected by some of their neighbors during the year, during an annual assembly, and they decide on the use of the funds they receive and the organization, you see. And sometimes it translates into fun events like a movie in the park, music or activities for young people. D'autres fois, cela prend la forme d'un plaidoyer. Vous savez, voici ce que nous voulons voir construit à ce coin de rue. Voici comment nous voulons voir nos commerces soutenus et prospères dans notre quartier. Voici pourquoi nous avons besoin, vous savez, d'une épicerie ou d'une autre entité. Ainsi, ils peuvent être une véritable source de plaidoyer. Et il y a cette simple réalité qu'un groupe de voisins organisé peut attirer l'attention des dirigeants d'une manière qu'un résident individuel ne peut parfois pas faire. Absolutely.

And I also think that a really important thing about neighborhood associations is that they are often circles of affinity within these neighborhoods. We see people who feel culturally represented in these spaces where their cultural and historical needs can be discussed and satisfied, and it is sometimes also a safer entry into the political process. Yes.

This is a relevant point and this is one of the reasons why today during this call I want to encourage people if you have never heard of your neighborhood organization or if you have said to yourself that I would like to get involved in my Kaga community, this is a very good opportunity to inform you. You can discover when their meetings take place and go take a look. You know, some of them really need your voice. Sometimes they are not representative of everyone in the neighborhood and your voice could be an important addition to the community, but these are spaces that can be very encouraging for people.

And tenants should also be part of these neighbourhood associations because they are not always proportionally represented. This is often the case with owners and some neighbourhoods have a higher concentration of tenants. It is therefore important that their voice is heard in these spaces. Absolutely.

One thing that I would recognize about tenants, this is a good example, the neighbourhood system was put in place 30 years ago and you know, Minneapolis is not huge, but it has 84 neighbourhoods, isn't it? It's often very small and sometimes if you are a tenant, you know on one side of Penn Avenue and that you could move in a year or two on the other side, you will find yourself in a different neighborhood according to the limits of the city. And you could therefore not see the interest of getting involved in your neighborhood association. But what we have noticed is that, first of all, you create social links wherever you go and that you have a lasting impact on those who will succeed you, you see. And so, in the same way that we want more young people to get involved, because they can see the impact and the sustainability of what could happen in the future, we would like tenants and newcomers to get involved in their organization.

And I love that you mentioned young people. So there is no age limit where you are, or is there a specific age limit to say, hey, I want to join my neighborhood association, I want to get involved, is there a minimum age limit or a age limit for that?

Je ne pense pas que quiconque refuserait un jeune souhaitant en faire du bénévolat. Certains quartiers ont des statuts ou des documents officiels qui pourraient exiger d'avoir l'âge de voter pour être responsable ou membre du conseil d'administration. Mais j'ai vu que de nombreux quartiers sont très impatients d'avoir des jeunes impliqués. Et donc, je ne découragerais en aucun cas quiconque d'aller se renseigner car vous y trouverez un groupe de personnes très enthousiastes et solidaires.

Et nos aînés aussi. Il est si important qu'ils soient de plus en plus impliqués à mesure que leurs besoins évoluent car ce qu'ils attendent du quartier et de la communauté est différent de ce qu'attendent les jeunes ou les personnes de notre âge. Avoir cette diversité d'âge est donc aussi très important.

Absolument. Donc ?

Oui, Malekim ? Je sais, c'est beaucoup d'informations. Je suis encore, je suis encore. Votre cœur est un peu, je sais. Donc je vais certainement appeler le bureau de notre maire. Absolument. Et votre conseiller municipal? Vous avez raison. Non, absolument.

Nous voulons vraiment nous assurer que vous, vous savez, alliez au moins voir ce qu'il en est. Même si vous n'y allez qu'une fois, si ça ne vous plaît pas, ce n'est pas grave. Mais vous devriez au moins voir ce qui se passe, car c'est l'occasion pour vous de faire entendre votre voix. Pour vraiment rester connecté.

Et le fait que les gens partagent ces histoires d'impact est tout aussi important parce qu'on oublie parfois, vous savez, on distribue de l'argent à India, mais quand vous entendez ces histoires d'impact, où va cet argent, ce qui s'est passé, et les belles choses qui en découlent, alors je pense que ça touche le cœur de ceux qui prennent ces décisions, et ils se disent, wow, peut-être qu'on devrait revoir ça, ou peut-être qu'on peut... Internet... Coupé ailleurs. Là où l'impact est moindre, n'est-ce pas? Comment pouvons-nous sous-peser nos options? Absolument. Donc, vous tous ici présents, vous avez tous une voix. Makim, vous pouvez amener vos S1 étudiantes. Comment les appelez-vous, des participantes? There are quite a few who have. There was even a lady who just said, like, I'm a procrastinator. I have so many ideas, but you know, and we gave her so many that she took her first step. She stopped procrastinating. She didn't need to ask anyone. She really managed to make things move for herself. And it's just, you know, a happiness. She says, I participated in programs and you know, usually I just take a note here and there and I go back to the venue. But she added, this one really puts the fire in the mud. It brings a transformation. Absolutely. A transformation. It's an excellent way to see things. It really brings a transformation. So I think, as you said, that these stories are important to hear because people really appreciate them and it helps them to become better people, to do better things in the community and to become business leaders. Absolutely.

May I underline that I love what you share, and I think that one of the reasons that feeds my passion for this work is that it has never represented a huge funding. Isn't it? Like the budget of the city is, you know, two billion dollars. And we got, you know, five hundred and zero, then a million dollars at some point, then five hundred and zero, zero, zero. But budgets are documents that reflect our values, aren't they? And one of the things I noticed is that you and many other people have been doing this work, this community work, for decades, years and generations. And for the city, decide that it is an important element to help our city to prosper and that we will finance it, provide support and technical assistance. This is one of the things that I find really significant. If the funding is removed, I know that people will continue to do this work. They will continue to do this work. Then they will have it in their own pockets. They will give their time to volunteers. The community is made up of people who really solve problems. But it was really powerful for me that this funding was maintained in 2027 or not. It was an incredible opportunity for me to bring my help from the city side, right? We finance a lot of things thanks to our taxes and through the city, in the name of many values. And that was very significant for me because it's a chance to say, hey, the work you do, the work you do and the work people do in the community has a direct impact on our residents, just like my work, the intervention of firefighters and other people impacts the community. So I am very grateful. I hope that we will be able to continue to support this work in one way or another.

Well, we are grateful to you for everything you do and even just for insisting and making sure that this is realized, because the work is behind the scenes. C'est un travail difficile. C'est un travail difficile. Les gens ne comprennent pas tout le travail nécessaire pour que cela se concrétise. Alors nous vous apprécions. Absolument.

Aria, merci pour ces derniers mots.

Je pense que c'était une très belle façon de conclure l'émission. Les financements vont et viennent, mais la communauté, elle, dure toujours.

C'était un excellent résumé. Merci.

Well, it was a pleasure to have you in our premises. It's such a nice day. I hope you can go out and enjoy it. Aria Roy. Aria is a cyclist. He's a bike enthusiast. You brought your bike here. On my way. I love that. A big congratulations to our team, our NCR department, who comes to work on bikes tomorrow. Is it a big event for the E, so are you all going to take your bikes?

I almost convinced her.

I told her I needed braids. If I had braids, maybe I would change them. Who understands me? You understand, don't you? Yes, of course.

Can you tie your hair in a ponytail? But I have something planned.

With another colleague, we planned something special for all cyclists.

That's a good thing. I love that. I love that. Well, thank you for this new great show, friends. It's great. Give them again the website where they can get more information.

Well, minneapolis.gov slash partnership-sfms. But I would also say to send an SMS or call 612-321-1049 at... In any language. 612-321-1049. Very well. If you have not noted this information, you can of course call KMOJ.

We will give it to you. And you can always call 311.

Compose toujours le 311 en cas de doute. Et renseignez-vous si vous ne savez pas qui est votre conseiller municipal. Découvrez dans quel quartier vous habitez et qui est cette personne.

Absolument. Et impliquez. Et impliquez.

Impliquez-vous à ce niveau-là. Merci à vous. Très bien. Ensuite, nous recevons Walter Kubarbanks de Brookdale Health. Alors, restez à l'écoute.
