Aaron its good to be here and glad to see you its been awhile

I noticed our city councilmember isn’t here. is there a representative from his office present?

great question since its district 4.

Where is Councilman Spivey or his office, this affects his district.

I was wondering the same thing.

I don't see him in here

Hi Aaron - will presentation slides be made available publicly? I apologize if you already covered this.

Is anyone from District 4 city council or DON is in this meeting?

Dennis Perkins - D4 DON

The DON is present.

Hi all - Keith Jones from Councilman Spivey's office is hopping on now

Is the assessment of air quality going to be updated in light of the massive expansion of the trucking facility on East Jefferson?

Please put the following in the record: FCA must improve its pollution controls to reduce emissions as a public health emergency. FCA and the City must immediately clear the backlog of residents waiting for home repairs and install air filters and monitors throughout the community. FCA didn’t wait to take advantage of hundreds of millions in tax gifts, and our residents can’t wait any longer for what they were promised.

Trucks (18-wheelers) are driving on residential streets, French Rd, to be exact...We discuss that with CRIO for monitoring??

Question: Is it true that FCA literally traded emissions reductions in the suburbs for emissions increases in a majority Black neighborhood? Is it true that they can do more to reduce those emissions with better pollution controls?

Not in my area

Another question please: Is it true that FCA just posted $1.4 billion in net profits in the 3rd Quarter of 2020, but the residents of Beniteau are still waiting for the home improvements they were promised that will keep them safe from FCA’s pollution?

Amanda Kaye--

https://wdet.org/posts/2019/07/22/88427-detroits-east-side-is-already-polluted-will-fiat-chrysler-make-it-worse/

What is the health impact on all those demo in the area?

We will start QA from the chat questions.

I can't see those teeny, tiny dots on the map! Where can I see a map that I can see and understand?

Are the properties that are being demolished going to be made available to neighbors? What is the status of the lots currently?

I would like the city to answer these questions since they are supposed to be the enforcement entity here.

Where can the public get information to this presentation if they are on the phone? AN email? or some request? Why so last minute and not have this ahead of time?

In terms of the impact area second round will these applicants be matched with the pending HRC partners for intake? Especially given remote work and inability for residents to access downtown offices

How much was spent on phase 1

Question for Jemison please: Has the city walked away from enforcing a strong community benefits agreement that prioritizes the health, environmental, and economic wellbeing of the residents who live in the shadow of this massive polluting complex? If yes, how?

does this new phase disqualify folks who received funding for sound remediation from the CBA negotiation?

Why are the residents of Beniteau are still waiting for the home improvements they were promised that will keep them safe from FCA’s pollution?

Yes. Congresswomen Rashida Tlaib

In the DLBA programs were these sales to homeowners? Man of these areas were held by DLBA for selected investors i.e. Hantz Farms etc. previously

How many rehab and ready homes will be done in the east canfield village area of D4?

Can you go back to the neighborhood framework slide??

Is it true that FCA literally traded emissions reductions in the suburbs for emissions increases in this impacted area? Is it true that they can do more to reduce those emissions with better pollution controls? What suburban city has those controls now?

How are homes selected for demolition determined for District 4? I am aware of homes that need to be demolished in District 4 and need to know where they are on the demolition list.

Yes, from the Warren plant.

I respectfully ask that these questions be answered directly from a city official.

We have had no tree removable in the Chandler Park area behind the Chandler Park Golf Course.

thank you Congresswomen. I would like to know the answer as well.

Q: What more will be planned to address noise, vibration, dust etc from the construction and future operations that impact the health of Beniteau and other very nearby residents?

Is there a timeline within the planning department that can be shared with residents who in the dark of when to expect any of these promises?

One meeting

I haven't heard anything about environmental benefits. reduction of VOCs, air monitoring and pollution reduction or air filtration no health impact assessments

Will a city official answer Congress Representative Rashida Tlaib

Please enter into the record: FCA must do more to protect the health of the impacted community. Additional pollution controls to reduce emissions is essential. The 48213, 48214 and 48215 zip codes have the highest rates of asthma hospitalization in the City. It’s wrong that FCA has taken millions of City tax dollars, posting $1.4Billion in profits and doing so little to protect the health of residents living on Beniteau and other nearby streets.

what are the efforts to accomplish those asks?

How is employment being tracked? Does FCA have to provide a paper trail on the applications or are they just self reporting like they do with the pollutants they emit?

Is the city of Detroit tracking emissions and health impacts and taking those complaints? These programs are city programs but I fail to see how actual residents benefit from these, programs.

What percent of those businesses receiving support are owned by Detroiters?

I would like to know why nothing is being DONE TO MAKING HOMES SAFE FROM THE ADDED POLLUTANTS !!!

how much of this presentation conflates data from other programs? specific line items for Detroits young talent that comes from FCA?

Q: Has further thought been given to FCA funding additional school air filtration systems in nearby area to protect the lungs of our most vulnerable residents?

There is no such thing as inkind services when city employees are doing the work. Another subsidy from the city to FCA, a multi billion dollar corporation. Why?

The City of Detroit gave up much much more than the City received, PLEASE remember that when you vote next year.

how many Detroit applicants were hired? how many made it passed the 90 mark and can that be continuously monitored?

A chance of employment fails to meet the definition of a community benefit. This life-skills emphasis doesn't address the harm the residents are enduring just to give a major corporation a tax break.

how much money went into recruitment versus the amount hired? that is how much dod taxpayers pay to recruit and train for FCA?

Can someone please detail ALL of the public funding for this project? If taxpayers are covering such a large percentage of the project cost, shouldn’t FCA install the best technology and reduce emissions further?

can people still apply?

How many of those business receiving support are Black Detroiters. Seeing that Detroit is a Majority Black

Can the city please answer the following questions: 1) how many of the applicants are currently temp workers at other FCA plants? 2) Is the city distinguishing between *brand new* jobs versus those being transferred? 3) Is the city counting those current FCA temp jobs as new job?

Has bus service improved for new employees, I didn't know our taxes are paying for lyft credits yet they can't rely on a timely Mack #31, or the slower Warren #8... that's admission the city's transit system isn't even a community benefit with increased investment from, possibly, FCA? Too much to ask for? \

How many of the 10,000 who applied were promised jobs who live in Detroit?

Here is a link to this evenings presentation: https://detroitmigov.app.box.com/s/43atctnlgrhrvrm9upzqq3bm01mc69yn www.detroitmi.gov/cbo

Where is this on the city website, do folks just gotta be lucky and chime in?

FCA must instal the best available technology to reduce hazardous air emissions. It’s unfair that Detroiters living near the FCA Mack plant will experience increased air pollution while residents near the Warren plant will have REDUCED emissions. This is wrong.

Q: has the city been tracking what is planned for the large number of parcels across the city that were included in the land deals last fall and how they benefit or do not benefit residents?

So how many returning citizens actually secured employment via FCA?

I hope the air is cleaner where you are at Councilman.

the presentation is located at www.detroitmi.gov/cbo

Presentations should be dropped in the chat room to access easily.

What is the air pollution impact from the rail traffic?

State of the art for car production. Can we get state of the art air quality protections for residents, Ron??

Could we get increase transit service to the area, this is assuming every "new employee" hired from the city programs has access to a car?

Is there a way to store the pollution too?

given both Jefferson and Connor avenues are the only protected bicycle paths for people to take, will there be a reconstruction of both streets to protect those road users from the expected higher truck traffic?

You have to do more with eliminating the emissions. Babies, Elderly, Residents with Respiratory issues are being impacted severely. This Is Something That Has To Be Taken Serious Immediately.

how many Detroiters actually have been offered jobs. Seems like you just glossed over that. Is that detail available?

Question to FCA: Is it true that many of these jobs are being filled with workers being transferred from another plant who are currently listed at temp workers?

*as

Provide The Numbers for How Many Jobs Have Been Offered To Detroiters. Give Us The Figures.

Comment to FCA: Please stop misleading the public on the job numbers. Some of these positions are being filled by current FCA workers who you all kept under the label “temp workers.”

from louie nafso motor city market place i am still looking to here from degc and fca in to the closer of st.jean street that has impacted my busseness and the rest of the shopping center i look mforward from hearing from you for a salution. ?

what home repair program? what the name of it

1,8 million for home report vs 440 million in public subsidies to FCA. Not much of a benefit to community.

What is the Dollars Amount Of The Grants.

I didnt hear ANY jobs numbers! a lot of money spent on recruitment (unclear if it was city money) but no actual jobs numbers.

$15,000 per grant

who is maintaining this park in the long-term?

This benefits FCA more than the Community

Park is owned by FCA, they will maintain

No real job numbers reported but lots of emphasis on process and paper work.

why invest funding into a grant program when community members next to the plant has been asking FCA use their money to correct damage done since the project began? that doesn’t seem fair to ignore the damage environmentally and structurally yet be proud of investing into a grant to update folks homes. my question is who made that decisions to ignore direct request from your neighbors?

“Light touch” on environmental impact

In the age of COVID its unacceptable!

Monitoring is data - what about pollution controls to mitigate the air pollution?

but no commitment to air quality impact reductions and no VOC monitoring?

I have to give some remarks at Trenton city council (also in my district), will be right back. If you get to one of my Qs while I'm still "there", Aaron or someone else can go ahead and read my question aloud.

I can now see why one of my residents sent me an email that he feels ignored and not seen by his own city government. Talking around the main issue is hurting our residents. They want public health protections.

Air pollution is a known risk factor for COVID, leading to increased mortality. Detroiters are at risk. FCA must to more to reduce emissions.

This presentation seems a lot of recruitment and outreach without jobs numbers, monitoring but no reduction of pollution, a lot of optics and no substance. what did $420million in tax money actually pay for?

Low CO2 emissions, but increased VOC emissions! Unacceptable.

isn’t it true we can’t count the benefits of tress until they are much older. according to research it takes about 10 years. what are the immediate protections FCA is doing as a good community partner. community .

Michelle Martinez - what you said!

https://careers.fcagroup.com/job/11459933/truck-driver-detroit-mi/

300 vacants lots were side lots not sold or offered the residents because I' m one of them for greenery

I agree with Michelle Martinez observation about the recruitment and outreach and not enough of what you promised. and not even close to what FCA should do as a good community partner

"Breathing VOCs can irritate the eyes, nose and throat, can cause difficulty breathing and nausea, and can damage the central nervous system as well as other organs. Some VOCs can cause cancer." American Lung Association.

Do you know other cities are asking for large scale and luxury items? Detroiters just want to live. They are asking for clean air and their health to be a priority. This is just unacceptable. Ignoring us will not make us go away.

I wake up to trucks every morning

The weight of productions externality will be carried by the bodies of the residents around but the benefits seem thinly veiled PR

I'll take pics and forward to you Michelle

Send to me too Lynn. FYI: I have blocked trucks in the past.

Seems City of Detroit complicit in creation of another sacrifice zone. corporate profits above community health here.

Yes Ma'am

rashida@mail.house.gov

Awesome 4100

what's the breakdown of temp vs permanent and pay scale

How many impact area residents have been hired?

How many Detroiters have been hired and are working. Play on words, "offered jobs" vs actual hired for work.

What pollutants will be monitored? Will the data be made available to the public, and in what form?

I have several residents residing in the impact not receiving a callback or a response after they completed the process

Please give the instructions to raise hands

Jerry king Has a question

It's A Election Year Coming 2021 City Officials Should Be Concern. Because We The Residents Are Not Being Taken Seriously Especially Longtime Detroiters. It Will Effect 2021 Elections. Some Will Not Be Reelected.

Is this an all male question panel/ I have had my hand up for the longest

I think they are taking in the order hands went up

After Investigation, CRIO will provide a written report of all findings. We want to document and investigate all complaints through this formal process. https://app.smartsheet.com/b/form/5a8f0f2eb7334d2fa9eddb006fc432f6

I know of families that would like to buy homes in the community and move in but they are set aside for developers to be purchased in blocks of four. Can the land bank unbundle properties if someone from the neighborhood wants to buy a bundled home?

I am feeling it too NAC member Michelle Jackson.

I think she's pissed anyone else?

Cut her mic

OMG

Yeah, she’s pissed, and I don’t blame her. Disrespect!

agreed Henry

Shameful for NAC members to be openly discussing silencing critics who it on the NAC.

sit*

FCA made 1.6 Billion in profits in the last 3 Months. And Have Threw Out Crumbs To The Residents. Shame Shame On Not Keeping NAC Abreast.

I don’t blame her. It’s interesting how folks are so upset about her saying “this is BS” but silent about the broken promises and the fact that a multi billion corporations installs air reduction devices in the suburbs and leaves a majority Black neighborhood with dirty air.

There is always an appropriate way to address any manner. We have children listening to this update, and we must always demonstrate to them how to express themselves upset or not. This isn't a debate but let's get real.

LaJuan couldn't unmute

I am working with the University of Michigan to do this study in this area, can we get someone from department to asst us with the study.

Chandler Park Neighborhood Association , President - Kelvin Wells agrees with Michelle Jackson — Chrysler is and will be making millions— where is the real transparency and like the Congresswoman Tallib stated where is the multi billion investment to air quality— Kelvin Wells

The emissions topic MUST be addressed in this meeting

lying

Michelle Jackson, is there a link to the UM working study?

smallvillefarms@gmail.com (email)

We appreciate your service Rhonda. I agree with you that the CBO process is broken. This is why I am hopeful that the new charter will include necessary changes that give us more transparency and accountability.

Rhonda, just keep speaking the truth. Your courage to speak out about the broken process is important to our residents who don’t deserve this kind of treatment.

I need help from The People's Platform ASAP. They are not tell us the truth.

can you go over those dates again? for applications?

Heather, when and where will this information on 2/15/2020 and 2/22/2020 be available??

To sign up to receive/attend informational meetings on Phase II of home repairs, please provide your contact information at the following link: @ bit.ly/fcahomerepair

Demand more money for households for rehab and renovation. $900k is outrageous!. For 60 homes that averages around $15K. Residents need to fix their homes so that they are safe to live in. Residents deserve more! This is how environmental racism works. Black folks and people of color just suck it up!

You can also email us with specific questions on Phase II at any time at fcahomerepair@detroitmi.gov .

Should be collecting data BEFORE plant starts up and running, so you can compare PRE-operation levels to AFTER operations start.

That would give us a sense of the BASELINE before the plant starts running.

How will community access the data from the monitor?

For clarity, Asbestos is abated along with other regulated materials that are deemed removable and all must be notified to the State. There are some instances that determined to be unsafe for worker access and separate EGLE notification is required. These situations require all of the material to be treated as Regulated Materials (Hot) in the demo and the disposal. All demolitions follow a Wetting process to mitigate the dust during demo operations. The U of M Health Study link is included. https://news.umich.edu/emergency-demolitions-in-detroit-low-risk-of-asbestos-exposure/

Dates of applications will be open from March 1, 2021 - April 12, 2021. The informational meetings will come prior to the application opening, so we can answer every question. The informational meetings are currently set to be on zoom similar to today's meeting.

When did the air reduction device at the Warren plant go online?

I’m sorry did I miss the number of impact area residents hired?

Question: Can we differentiate between transfers and *new* jobs?

Four folks from our area were hire to work at the Warren plant.

studies have been done already that tell us the risk to our lives in the direct impack area will increase why is fca ignoring that fact/

Could you all fill out my Compost Survey : https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc4nTseWc3CJMLPhrsYUVj_y-Qst4zJAgLbMWLmCIccKnJooQ/viewform?vc=0&c=0&w=1&gxids=7628

Pretty straight forward questions. Yes or no? Did you trade off our air quality with another neighborhood?

Air monitoring is NOT a protection of health, it’s just data.

FCA DID trade off air quality in Detroit for better air quality in Warren.

Is there a public timeline that my office can share with residents?

WHAT IS FCA OR THE NEOGOTIATOR GOING TO DO ABOUT DAMAGE TO THE FOUNDATIONS FROM MONTHS OF CONSTRUCTION?

Does the air monitoring station take truck emissions into consideration since we had significantly increased truck traffic in the East Canfield Village neighborhood which is directly behind the plant?

Wait a second, Did Mr. Stallworth answer the question? Is it true that FCA reduced emissions in warren to increase them in our kids backyard?

Was the number of impact area residents hired ever given?

Can we have the questions and the answers add to the website?

AND WHAT STUDY HAS BEEN DONE TO SHOW THAT WOULD BE NO DAMAGE FROM MONTHS OF CONSTRUCTION TO OURS HOMES?

Director Nicole, thank you for processing and sending the 16k applicants. I think I am trying to get to the fact that FCA is holding some of those openings for current temp FCA workers.

The recording of this meeting, including transcript and chat file will be posted to the City website along with the presentation slides - by the end of this week

if not sooner

How is FCA quantifying this “lowest-emitting” plant claim? This does not track with what environmental advocates are saying.

If I am unmuted, I can clarify my question.

Those are union jobs

Yes I know.

The union and FCA made it clear in the beginning the current union members would have access to these jobs at North first.

Yeah but you are misleading the public by saying these are NEW jobs.

Stop labeling them as new jobs when you are just shuffling workers around.

We were told that early on and the NAC member disregarded thus information.

Thank you to all the residents for staying engaged. This is very important. This is a project that will outlive most people managing this project right now, but our neighborhood will remain.

If there is such concern about air filtration in the impact zone why is the senator getting funding for air filtration in other communities?

Thank you Arthur. That would be great.

Darnell, the air filtration need is also in Southwest Detroit with the industrial and truck pollution there as well, including the Gordie Howe International Bridge which is being constructed. It is a request from years ago from residents predating the FCA announcement. Trust me I will fight just as hard for getting it done for the East Side as well.

The concern that I hear does not translate into action in the most impacted area of this project just government official jabber!

The links between issues in SW and the East Side are very clear and we will continue to advocate for all.

Speak Harvey!

Thank you Harvey for your advocacy for your members!

They are rightfully upset. The temp workers deserve the first shot because FCA decided to keep them in that temp status for far too long.

Appreciate your clarification Harvey. I just don’t like it when the City and FCA mislead the public as if these are NEW jobs open to new people.

unmute me

Thank you Sister Rashida. We are leading bargaining representatives for the UAW as you know and we deal with these issues everyday.

CRIO should force the word games with the jobs to stop. It is the same as lying to the public.

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc4nTseWc3CJMLPhrsYUVj_y-Qst4zJAgLbMWLmCIccKnJooQ/viewform?vc=0&c=0&w=1&gxids=7628

Unfortunately CRIO isn’t focused on ensuring the residents are being properly represented and communicated to.

I have to leave you all. Keep fighting my residents. You all inspire me to work harder. Thank you to all the residents for staying engaged. This is a project that will outlive most people managing this project right now, but our neighborhood will remain. It is critical that we make sure it is done right. If you need to reach out to me about the FCA pollution expansion, please email me at rashida@mail.house.gov or call me at 313-463-6220.

Goodnight. Be safe.

Senator Chang Please turn your advocacy into dollars in our community. We have been waiting for assistance for a very long time. It took this project to get some attention. We are tired of hearing about every community but ours. Help us improve our area with something other than air quality commentary. respectfully.

Any questions or complaints about the CRIO reports can be submitted via http://bit.ly/CBOComment

CRIO works for the Mayor, do you think they will ever (fine $) him for anything? No , Never.

They will investigate and respond with findings

I'm sorry but with the profits FCA has earned that's a non-answer and while not flippant, it doesn't answer to the commitments to safe-guard health of the community?

The Civil Rights, Inclusion and Opportunity Department is responsible for investigating CBO complaints. Complaints should be submitted using our formal process.

It is true that CRIO answers to the mayor and therefore are unable to properly represent residents

*community. But thanks...

If any member of the public is dissatisfied with the CRIO findings, they make a request for a hearing at City Council per the process laid out by the CBO

Brothers and Sisters we are forging a new type of relationship. It is maturing and creates friction. But together we move toward better opportunities

How do we raise hands?

to raise hand: type alt-y (windows) or option-y (mac)

*9 on the phone

I agree with you Jerry. However in order for us to move forward together there must be honesty and transparency on both sides

Will the updates to Jefferson North bring that plant to the same new low emissions levels as the new Mack Assembly? If not, why not?

Darnell, I just saw your questions about what I'm working on. I'm working hard on lots of issues that impact East Side residents. Will send a direct message but anyone feel free to give us a call at 313.922.6949 or email senschang@senate.michigan.gov. We are helping lots of folks every day.

So what do we do next time?

The NAC does not care about, all of the TAX CREDITS, not sure that they even know what TAX CREDITS are?

The home repair program needs more funding-- it cannot address the needing this community.

NO WAY

I appreciate you so very much Michelle

I too appreciate you Michelle.
