look at grant funding through the County - Zero Waste funding (any entity <br />can apply). That application is open in Sept -Oct. Parent — why can't we do <br />what Boulder did? Sue — Council can only take on so many hot topics <br />during one year and this year that is the Waste Hauler Contract. Many of <br />people in this community do not want to be like Boulder. Makes the point <br />that not all members of a community feel the same way about things. <br />Student — Will they be interested in future years? Sue — That is a <br />possibility. Also keep in mind the City supports voluntary and incentive <br />based opportunities. Teacher — this is not about being like Boulder — it's <br />being a better global citizen. Teacher — Next Steps: 1) Lucky Pie owner <br />donated wall by Tilt to design a sustainability mural. 2) Continue <br />partnership with restaurants. 3) For bag fee — hoping to get mural on bags <br />and in September hit the campaign hard. Marianne — LSAB members <br />would offer letter of support if a grant is applied for. <br />e. Public Comments not on the agenda — <br />i. Leah Yancey and County Updates: <br />1. Lawsuit filed by Boulder County and City of Boulder and San Luis <br />county — climate change impact costs. The lawsuit is against <br />Exon Mobile and Suncore Energy companies, requesting they <br />pay costs associated with climate change impacts so costs don't <br />fall disproportionally on residents. (Bouldercounty.org/climate- <br />accountability). <br />2. Resilient Analytics report — potential impact costs. Report was <br />sent our Board. <br />3.

Leah Yancey — the County can provide <br />energy smart brochures to hand out. No LSAB members are able to <br />attend. <br />f. Sue's Minutes: <br />i. May 1St: Boulder County asked the city to join with them in a friend <br />of the court brief. Council will discuss if they want to do that at next <br />meeting. <br />ii.
