89 Thank you {,} Mr. Chairman .
90 Thank you for the floor .
91 [paragraph] it's {a^} good question .
92 Had there has been {a^} significant surplus in personnel allotments for each of the budget years and it seemed like {a^} appeal time to do this .
93 Ten thousand dollars is -- if you have five people {,} you know {,} you brake that down {,} its [AETS] mine nor increase if you wanna Ted to sad staff and retain price .
94 Each one of you deals different {^ly} how that applies to you're [SPES] {^iffic} office {,} I think this is {^us} {a^} appeal time for us to address this matter and to vote on whether we should increase allocations for the office .
95 [paragraph] Councilor Zakim [paragraph] thank you {,} I certainly {^ly} sport Ted there [STPHR-FPLT] Zakim Zakim .
96 My staff and every {^ry} one else's staff {de^} serfs Moore .
97 And {im^} sure Councilor [WAOUS] {^'s} question on the amount and what the surplus {^s} have been in the pass and what this would take if I could also ask throughout chair to the response sore but certainly {^ly} I think our staff {de^} certificate of to be paid Moore .
98 Thank you .
99 [paragraph] Linehan so {,} the counsel's budget has been or averaged over [150] thousand dollars in surplus over the pass five six search years and one year it was {^s}{a^} much {^s}{a^} [3] hundred thousand dollars .
100 And for {a^} variety of Reese sons .
101 And this would be [3] years without the increase of allot .
102 So I think it was {a^} appeal time .
103 This would does the Councilor [130] thousand dollars but [UTS] {^'} of perineal that's allot .
104 Is in place already {:} {:} [135] {:} [THOUTS] [THOUTS] thousand dollars {:} Yancy Yancy thank you very much {,} Mr. Chairman .
105 I {^us} want to based on my review of [20] [14] [THOUTSDZ] we returned over well over one hundred thousand dollars for the lass fiscal year but we haven't [SAOEFDZ] it for the current fiscal year but the Councilor is correct and that was left on the table and I also agree with the previous speak {er^} that compared to salaries throughout city government {,} {a^} city Of Councilor staff is one of the low Wes paid in city government {^ed to} {,} and {^s}{a^} I appoint Ted out previously {^ly} on {a^} different subject but in the same con tect there are Moore than [4] thousand [4] hundred city [PHREU] ease that earn much Moore that city Councilor [SHRORS] {,} but I think [AEUTS] {^'} important that we note that it's well over [2] hundred thousand the previous year and probably {^us} {^ify} even increasing the ten thousand to [15] thousand .
106 But tra additional {^ly} we've [RURPBDZ] to the Jen fund Ciommo thank you {,}you Councilor Yancy .
107 Linehan [-FPLTS] {^us} in closing {,} to respond to even {a^} great ter increase in allocation {,} witness {^s} at the half year I [THOUT] that this was the appeal amount I think if we would like to {re^} visit in our allocations going forward for {a^} are further increase week do that .
108 It would be Bess it that we've the budget projection [PHAOFG] forward and I think at this time since the mon any has been allocate Ted it would be {a^} {re^} [HRAL] location to where this mon any is [SPEPBTSD] this would be the appeal time to do that amount and ask for you're sport .

172 Some people are bee hold {en^} from {.}it direct conflict with state law or case law so the time has come in [20] [15] to {re^} visit and look and [RAE] examine and I think to put {a^} residency policy forward that fits the [20] [15] model for sit I government and restore fairness and [EBG] {^ity} and make sure it pertains to the range and file employ {e^} [SWELTS] to {a^} superior and that department and that said my home it that {a^} residency Polly will be create Ted and his honor the mayor collude ugh [-7] [PHERPLS] and hopeful {^ly} consult with the [KUPB] to see [WHRORPBTS] we want to recommend or {a^} member of Councilor certificate of but the time has come to address the index tease and fairness around the enforce .

181 Mr. President Mr. President [P-FPLT] I commends you and Councilor Flaherty for putting this item on the floor .
182 You've {a^} bun {&u} one basic concern and {^s that} if we're going [TO*F] {^ing to} ahead and form this commission we should have it structured so {a^} member of this body will certificate of on {.}it I don't think that should be left up to the realm of the add [PH-RGS] .
183 I think the partnership that we've with the add [PH-RGS] is very positive {,} but this issue volumes boat the exec {^tive} bran .
184 And legs late {^ive} bran .
185 Of government in terms of policies .
186 That's my first comment .
187 The my second comment has to do with the actual glow of dollars in city government .
188 {^s}{a^} all of you know {,} we spent Moore than [1] point [1] [PW-LGDZ] on salary alone not collude {^ing} over time of benefits .
189 One point one billion{}dollars every {^ry} year .
190 {^}troke .
191 {a^} third of those dollars go to individuals that don't live in the [SEUB] .
192 That {trans^} [HRAEUTS] into well over [4] hundred million{}dollars {a^} year going to people who don't live in the [SEUB] .
193 It's not questioning the work or the dedication to the city Of but {^us} looking at the fact that Boston is {a^} [TKHRAOEUFG] sit [TEUFPLT] hose of the higher paid position in boat the public and private secretary do not go to people who live in the [SEUB] .
194 Particularly in the private sector so I think it's important that we look at this issue from {a^} economic viewpoint {^s}{a^} well .
195 I think it's important if you work for the [SEUB] you lat lease be acquired to pay property taxes in the city .
196 And other pen fits wean Moore substantial {^s}{a^} having Boston residents {^s}{a^} city employees .
197 So I commends the boat of you and want to note that we're talking about {a^} substantial amount of mon any with implication {^s} in each of our neighborhoods swell {im^} occasion {^s} with economic development in Boston .

205 What we can't have is the people who make the mows mon any and have the mows ability to pay the [TK*EUFP] diff rents in the [SEUB] not have to follow by the same rules {^s}{a^} the people at public works who make [3-8] {,} [3-9] {,} [40] thousand dollars {a^} year .
206 It's very important conversation .
207 And we're all over the place when it comes to the different barring {^ening} you know knits .
208 I think its a time [PHREU] and really important .
209 And {^us} note .
210 I got to go to Phil at the beginning of December {,} and interestingly they -- there's {a^} five {^%} tax on each employ {e^} regardless of where you are .
211 And that would deal with some of the thinks that Councilor Yancy is speaking about .
212 We don't have that here .
213 And so the benefit that we get from people living in the [SEUB] is that they're going to by Koch if I .
214 They're going {^ing to} to stop and shop or star or trade trade [SKWROES] wherever you're on you're organ nick scale in terms of you're food .
215 And they're going to also in all hon necessarily they're going to par [T*EUT] 'tis pate in little league go to the locate Al why{.} [PH-FPLT] [KR-FPLT] amount of and part of that neighborhood and community and [TPRAEUPBG] {^ly} if they park {a^} please car in front of the house {^s that} probably {a^} good think relative to you're safety {^ity} .
216 If [STWUPB] is {a^} pub pic lick works work {er^} making sure that pothole gets fixed that much fastener {.}you all of those thinks thar good quality of life thinks for the [SEUB] .
217 We all get collect Ned .
218 Not by anybody out side of the [SEUBT] that we know of but by people who live and work who race there kids {,} deal with the very sometimes urge [EPBTS] {^ish} shoes of the people right here in the [SEUB] .
219 We've the nose -- some of the mows {a^} mace {^ing} people in the whole world right here .
220 We should able to draw from them and we've {a^} [PHAEURB] who wants to build fifty [3] mill you know knits of housing and I think [UTS] {^s}{a^} it's {a^} time [PHREU] and urge [EPBTS] issue and role our sleeves up and get back to the day when all the folk {,} who work here actually live in the [SEUBT] [TEUFPLT] it's great place tow live .

225 I know knew project [EBGTS] here's and I would like to see the city workers the the front [-FRT] line .
226 We've certain unions offer grand for the down payments a think it city to should get bored with that sort of thinks .

70 All [12] offices and [15] for the [President|Pressley] {^'s} office {,} and that would be for {a^} increase to increase it up to [2] hundred and [1-6] thousand dollars for each individual office .
71 Is [-FRB] clear on that {?} [paragraph] so there {^'} been additional mon any in five or six of our lass budge et cetera {,} much that we've [RURPBDZ] significant amount of dollars .
72 It seems like this is {a^} appeal time for you to give you're individual staff {a^} increase .
73 You average [4] to five staff {,} ten thousand dollars does {'} go far in that regard .
74 It's annual .
75 [PHAOFG] forward we retain that same praise in the financial year [14] [15] budget and it'll be {a^} [15] thousand dollars increase for the [President|Pressley] {^'s} [OFPS] .

87 - [paragraph] Wu [WAOU] thank you {,} very much .
88 I {^us} wanna Ted to maybe throughout chair ask the response sore {,} we're all very familiar with the budget and Councilor budget but if we could [PWER] understand [TPAORT] exact amounts why ten thousand was chosen and [15] for the [15] so we've {a^} [PWER] understanding of this [STKPWHREFRPBLGTS] bill Linehan .
89 Thank you {,} Mr. Chairman .
90 Thank you for the floor .
91 [paragraph] it's {a^} good question .
92 Had there has been {a^} significant surplus in personnel allotments for each of the budget years and it seemed like {a^} appeal time to do this .
93 Ten thousand dollars is -- if you have five people {,} you know {,} you brake that down {,} its [AETS] mine nor increase if you wanna Ted to sad staff and retain price .
94 Each one of you deals different {^ly} how that applies to you're [SPES] {^iffic} office {,} I think this is {^us} {a^} appeal time for us to address this matter and to vote on whether we should increase allocations for the office .
95 [paragraph] Councilor Zakim [paragraph] thank you {,} I certainly {^ly} sport Ted there [STPHR-FPLT] Zakim Zakim .
96 My staff and every {^ry} one else's staff {de^} serfs Moore .
97 And {im^} sure Councilor [WAOUS] {^'s} question on the amount and what the surplus {^s} have been in the pass and what this would take if I could also ask throughout chair to the response sore but certainly {^ly} I think our staff {de^} certificate of to be paid Moore .
98 Thank you .
99 [paragraph] Linehan so {,} the counsel's budget has been or averaged over [150] thousand dollars in surplus over the pass five six search years and one year it was {^s}{a^} much {^s}{a^} [3] hundred thousand dollars .
100 And for {a^} variety of Reese sons .
101 And this would be [3] years without the increase of allot .
102 So I think it was {a^} appeal time .

169 Obviously {^ly} I speak is for [-FRB] when you say it's come {^cate} Ted it dates back to the {mid-^} [-7] [0] close to [40] years old .
170 I did I scribe the residency policy is {a^} mess .
171 Means [TKEUFRPBTS] thinks to different people .
172 Some people are bee hold {en^} from {.}it direct conflict with state law or case law so the time has come in [20] [15] to {re^} visit and look and [RAE] examine and I think to put {a^} residency policy forward that fits the [20] [15] model for sit I government and restore fairness and [EBG] {^ity} and make sure it pertains to the range and file employ {e^} [SWELTS] to {a^} superior and that department and that said my home it that {a^} residency Polly will be create Ted and his honor the mayor collude ugh [-7] [PHERPLS] and hopeful {^ly} consult with the [KUPB] to see [WHRORPBTS] we want to recommend or {a^} member of Councilor certificate of but the time has come to address the index tease and fairness around the enforce .
173 And I think we all have store Reese that we've seen selective political enforce .
174 And we've also seen where it's completely ig [TPHAORD] who you know how you contribute to or who you cam bane for and then we'll {en^} Norse residency or No{.} hopeful {^ly} we'll get {^'} fresh perspect {^ive} on it [APBLTS] that this body can sport and the residents of of this city can be proud of and thank {,}you Mr. President Mr. President .

179 [paragraph] Yancy Yancy .
180 Thank {,}you very much .
181 Mr. President Mr. President [P-FPLT] I commends you and Councilor Flaherty for putting this item on the floor .
182 You've {a^} bun {&u} one basic concern and {^s that} if we're going [TO*F] {^ing to} ahead and form this commission we should have it structured so {a^} member of this body will certificate of on {.}it I don't think that should be left up to the realm of the add [PH-RGS] .
183 I think the partnership that we've with the add [PH-RGS] is very positive {,} but this issue volumes boat the exec {^tive} bran .
184 And legs late {^ive} bran .
185 Of government in terms of policies .
186 That's my first comment .
187 The my second comment has to do with the actual glow of dollars in city government .
188 {^s}{a^} all of you know {,} we spent Moore than [1] point [1] [PW-LGDZ] on salary alone not collude {^ing} over time of benefits .
189 One point one billion{}dollars every {^ry} year .
190 {^}troke .
191 {a^} third of those dollars go to individuals that don't live in the [SEUB] .
192 That {trans^} [HRAEUTS] into well over [4] hundred million{}dollars {a^} year going to people who don't live in the [SEUB] .
193 It's not questioning the work or the dedication to the city Of but {^us} looking at the fact that Boston is {a^} [TKHRAOEUFG] sit [TEUFPLT] hose of the higher paid position in boat the public and private secretary do not go to people who live in the [SEUB] .
194 Particularly in the private sector so I think it's important that we look at this issue from {a^} economic viewpoint {^s}{a^} well .
195 I think it's important if you work for the [SEUB] you lat lease be acquired to pay property taxes in the city .
196 And other pen fits wean Moore substantial {^s}{a^} having Boston residents {^s}{a^} city employees .
197 So I commends the boat of you and want to note that we're talking about {a^} substantial amount of mon any with implication {^s} in each of our neighborhoods swell {im^} occasion {^s} with economic development in Boston .
198 [paragraph] thank {,}you Councilor Yancy .
199 Councilor Yancy yak jack .

201 Thank {,}you very much .
202 Mr. President .
203 I rise to thank you and Councilor Flaherty for this porn and timely [KHR-FRGS] .
204 {im^} {a^} proponent of the city of Boston and people who live in the [SEUB] are having {a^} opportunity to have {a^} benefit and [PR*EFRLG] preference hon necessarily to working in the [SEUB] .
205 What we can't have is the people who make the mows mon any and have the mows ability to pay the [TK*EUFP] diff rents in the [SEUB] not have to follow by the same rules {^s}{a^} the people at public works who make [3-8] {,} [3-9] {,} [40] thousand dollars {a^} year .
206 It's very important conversation .
207 And we're all over the place when it comes to the different barring {^ening} you know knits .
208 I think its a time [PHREU] and really important .
209 And {^us} note .
210 I got to go to Phil at the beginning of December {,} and interestingly they -- there's {a^} five {^%} tax on each employ {e^} regardless of where you are .
211 And that would deal with some of the thinks that Councilor Yancy is speaking about .
212 We don't have that here .
213 And so the benefit that we get from people living in the [SEUB] is that they're going to by Koch if I .
214 They're going {^ing to} to stop and shop or star or trade trade [SKWROES] wherever you're on you're organ nick scale in terms of you're food .
215 And they're going to also in all hon necessarily they're going to par [T*EUT] 'tis pate in little league go to the locate Al why{.} [PH-FPLT] [KR-FPLT] amount of and part of that neighborhood and community and [TPRAEUPBG] {^ly} if they park {a^} please car in front of the house {^s that} probably {a^} good think relative to you're safety {^ity} .
216 If [STWUPB] is {a^} pub pic lick works work {er^} making sure that pothole gets fixed that much fastener {.}you all of those thinks thar good quality of life thinks for the [SEUB] .
217 We all get collect Ned .
218 Not by anybody out side of the [SEUBT] that we know of but by people who live and work who race there kids {,} deal with the very sometimes urge [EPBTS] {^ish} shoes of the people right here in the [SEUB] .
219 We've the nose -- some of the mows {a^} mace {^ing} people in the whole world right here .
220 We should able to draw from them and we've {a^} [PHAEURB] who wants to build fifty [3] mill you know knits of housing and I think [UTS] {^s}{a^} it's {a^} time [PHREU] and urge [EPBTS] issue and role our sleeves up and get back to the day when all the folk {,} who work here actually live in the [SEUBT] [TEUFPLT] it's great place tow live .
221 Thank {,}you Councilor Jackson .
222 Councilor Baker [-FPLTS] thank {,}you Mr. President Mr. President .
223 Thank you Councilor Flaherty and Linehan for {.}this it's important discussion that we've to have .
224 {^ive} pro residency myself and I {a^} appreciate the [TPEURPBLG] [SWRAPBG] {^ed} in this conversation is going to be around housing {,} how do we provide housing to the actual city work {er^} making [35] {,} [3-8] thousand I think those people should be at the front of our lines for lot [REUS] .
225 I know knew project [EBGTS] here's and I would like to see the city workers the the front [-FRT] line .
226 We've certain unions offer grand for the down payments a think it city to should get bored with that sort of thinks .
227 Out side of the city maybe we should be offering {re^} location cost items those sorts of thinks .
228 I hope this commission really [TPWHEUGS] different strat guys other than {^us} mandating [-FRB] [PHAOF] to the city Of .
