Adopt the Agenda 1.01 Adopt the Agenda Motion to Adopt Agenda as written. Motion by Councilor Bergman, Seconded by Councilor McKnight Final Resolution: Motion Passes Yes: Unanimous 2. Public Forum 2.01 Verbal Comments Sharon Bushor commented on Agenda Item 4.01, stating there is no timeline indicated for paying back credit as opposed to the usual language included in past budget resolutions. Bushor also expressed concern over adding $6 million for DPW Water Resources, considering the recent $200 million bond for this department, and whether this would actually reduce the City’s debt. Bushor spoke in support of Item 5.01, regarding the proposed homestead exemption, and wondered how the group arrived at $30,000. Bushor also wanted to know the impact on non- homestead and commercial properties, and noted she does not support the ability for the City to raise the general tax rate based on CPI. Keren Sita asked for documentation regarding new leadership’s plans for REIB. Evan G spoke to Item 5.01, asking the Committee to look at the impact on renters in developing this policy, suggesting a per-unit exemption or other alternatives in addition to the flat rate. Public forum closed at 6:17 PM. 3. Adding REIB Department to the Charter Discussion 3.01 Adding REIB Department to the Charter Discussion Page 1 of 3 The Committee discussed community feedback received at the last REIB Committee meetings with REIB Director Kelli Perkins and REIB Program Manager Katie Greene. To depoliticize the Director role, community feedback expressed support for structuring the REIB Director position as a role subject to the hiring process versus mayoral appointment, but that if mayoral appointment were to make it into the final charter language, the appointment should be for two years. Dr. Perkins confirmed the language is mostly there, except to change “recommend” to “consult” on page 4 of the memo in the proposed charter language. The Committee requested clarification on director appointment by the next meeting to be able to vote the charter change out of the Committee. 4. City Council Authority to Pledge Credit Charter Discussion 4.01 City Council Authority to Pledge Credit Charter Discussion CAO Schad reviewed the reasons for proposing to increase the City’s and relevant departments’ borrowing limits in the charter, to meet capital expense needs over the long-term. CAO Schad clarified for Councilor Bergman that the requirement to pay back borrowed amounts within two years only applies to working capital, as opposed to capital improvements, the terms for which are set by resolution. Councilor McKnight confirmed with CAO Schad that the Director of Finance would be sending out a breakdown of future debt projections and the potential tax implications, in the context of increased borrowing authority. No action was taken. 5. General Fund Tax Fairness Charter Discussion 5.01 General Fund Tax Fairness Charter Discussion Deputy Chief of Staff Zakaras reviewed the proposal originating from the Mayor’s Tax Fairness Working Group that proposes an exemption for the first $30,000 of property value for homesteads, to address inequities in assessed property values. Councilor McKnight requested further documentation outlining this change. Data Analyst Stetson clarified for Councilor Litwin how the working group arrived at $30,000. CAO Schad also added the amounts paid to the City by affordable housing organizations is dictated by state statute and will not be affected by this charter change. Attorney Ramakrishnan confirmed Vermont has no form of rent stabilization, answering Councilor Litwin’s concern regarding if Burlington would have any power to prevent landlords from passing costs onto renters. Page 2 of 3 Councilor Bergman noted that properties falling under housing subsidy covenants should be made easily identifiable for the Assessor’s Office. Councilor Bergman also requested more information on the impact to smaller landlords’ properties and indicated he would be open to separating the exemption from the inflation aspect of the charter change. Councilor McKnight asked that the City consider bring in outside expertise to weigh in on the impact to businesses from a potential increase in commercial property taxes as well as a ward- by-ward impact report. Attorney Ramakrishnan clarified this change only impacts the General Fund Municipal Tax and no other municipal taxes. No action was taken. 6. Any Other Committee Business 6.01 Any Other Committee Business No action was taken. 7. Adjournment 7.01 Motion to adjourn The meeting was adjourned with no objection at 7:40 PM. Page 3 of 3

Adjournment Department Council and Board Type Recommended Action Page 3 of 22 Office of Racial Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (REIB) Date: July 9, 2015 To: Burlington City Council From: Christian Berry, Interim Director Re: Recommended Action: Motion to Refer the REIB Proposed Charter Language to the Charter Change Committee Introduction This memo proposes the formal addition of the Office of Racial Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (REIB) to Burlington’s City Charter and recommends City Council refer the proposed REIB Charter Language to the Charter Change Committee for further action. Establishing the REIB Office within the city’s charter signifies a commitment to advancing racial equity and social justice throughout our city. This initiative aligns with our ongoing efforts to create a more inclusive community, and it addresses systemic inequities that have historically affected the most underrepresented, underserved, and marginalized members of our community. History of Racial Equity and Social Justice Work in City Governance The City of Burlington has taken significant strides towards racial equity and social justice since the early 2000s. In 2000, the City Council adopted the Legacy Action Plan, outlining a vision for improving the city’s economic, environmental, social, and cultural health for future generations. This plan initially overlooked the urgent need to assess and address systemic barriers related to diversity and racial equity, which were incorporated into the plan in 2010. In 2011, under the direction of the Social Equity Director, Wanda Hines, a Unity Retreat convened over 50 stakeholders to identify structural barriers and emphasize the necessity of a coordinated, city-supported plan to advance racial equity. This work laid the foundation for future initiatives. A resolution to create a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion committee was passed by the City Council in 2012 and by late 2013, the city enlisted the Vermont Partnership for Fairness and Diversity to develop a strategic plan addressing racial and ethnic disparities. This plan was adopted in 2014 with the goal of embedding inclusion, equity, and justice into city operations. In response to identified gaps in Burlington’s approach to addressing racial and social disparities, the Office of Racial Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (REIB) was established in 2019. This formal launch created a centralized structure to lead internal systems change efforts and public-facing equity initiatives throughout the city. Tyeastia Green was appointed as the City’s first Director of Racial Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging in 2020. Office of Racial Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging Initially, the City of Burlington’s efforts to address racial equity were often reactive rather than proactive, leading to a fragmented approach to social justice. Establishing a dedicated Office of Racial Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging provided a centralized focus for racial equity and social justice-based efforts and initiatives, ensuring ongoing attention to issues faced by the most underrepresented, underserved, and marginalized members of our community. Page 4 of 22 Since its establishment in 2019, the Office of Racial Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (REIB) has emerged as a key driver of systemic equity efforts throughout city governance. The office’s work is now integrated into internal policies, public engagement initiatives, budget planning, education and training, and service delivery. In response to community needs and organizational gaps, the REIB’s strategic and operational responsibilities have expanded. The REIB continues to be relied upon to lead and support equity-based initiatives across departments and within city policies. Currently, the need for a formal REIB Office is more urgent than ever. National conversations surrounding racial inequality and ongoing attacks on human rights reveal the systemic injustices faced not only by racial and ethnic groups, but also by various underrepresented, underserved, and marginalized groups, including those impacted by socioeconomic status, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, religion, and other factors that result in disparate treatment. The focus on inclusion and belonging emphasizes the importance of creating a community where everyone feels safe, valued, and supported, irrespective of their backgrounds or experiences. An official Office of Racial Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging would ensure that racial equity and social justice considerations are integral to all city policies and programs, rather than an afterthought. Justification for Including the Office of Racial Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging and REIB Director position in Burlington’s City Charter Institutionalizing the Office of Racial Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging within Burlington’s City Charter offers numerous benefits for future governance. By embedding the REIB Office in the Charter, the city demonstrates an unwavering commitment to prioritizing racial equity and social justice in all aspects of governance and community development. This institutionalization creates a mechanism for long-term accountability, ensuring that city officials and employees remain responsible for promoting equity and belonging in both policy decisions and program implementations. Furthermore, a chartered REIB Office facilitates a centralized, coordinated approach to equity- based initiatives, effectively breaking down silos between departments while ensuring comprehensive strategies that address systemic inequities. It also allows for dedicated funding and resources, thereby enabling the sustainable development of programs that cater to the needs of the most underrepresented, underserved, and marginalized members of our community. This formal commitment fosters greater public trust and engagement, as community members will feel more included in the decision-making processes knowing there is an office specifically dedicated to their concerns. With the REIB Office enshrined in the City Charter, considerations of racial equity would be systematically integrated into all city policies, programs, practices, and services, promoting a culture of inclusion throughout municipal governance. The REIB can conduct regular assessments, collect data, and provide ongoing training regarding racial equity, leading to better-informed decision-making by city officials. Moreover, its establishment encourages community engagement and empowerment, creating a platform where voices from various backgrounds can be heard, leading to more impactful initiatives. Page 5 of 22 Additionally, the REIB can set measurable goals and benchmarks for achieving racial equity, allowing the city to track progress over time and make necessary adjustments to strategies. Ultimately, embedding the REIB Office within the City Charter serves to facilitate a cultural shift towards inclusivity, supporting a broader societal change that values diversity and belonging. In summary, institutionalizing the REIB Office would create a robust framework for addressing systemic issues, contributing to a more equitable and inclusive Burlington for everyone. Request: Establishing the Office of Racial Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging within Burlington’s City Charter is a vital step towards fostering an inclusive and equitable community. This formal recognition will ensure that our commitment to racial equity, inclusion, and belonging is embedded in the governance of our city, paving the way for systemic change and accountability. Adding the Office of Racial Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging to Burlington’s City Charter is a crucial step toward reinforcing our commitment to equity and justice. Proposed Motion: “To waive the first reading of the proposed Charter Change and forward the language to the Charter Change Committee for further deliberation subject to review and approval of the City Attorney’s Office.” Page 6 of 22 Office of Racial Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (REIB) Charter Language The City of Burlington shall form an Office of Racial Equity, Inclusion and Belonging and establish a Director of Racial Equity Inclusion and Belonging.
