The new system went online Monday, May 1 and offers improved features for both requesters and City employees who manage PRRs. <br></div> <div> <br> </div> <div>Requesters will now have easier access to public records already available online and the ability to track the City’s progress toward fulfilling their requests. Additional enhancements include a Trending Topics section, Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) with links to online resources, and a Public Records Archive. Visitors to the website are required to set up an account before they can submit a public records request. </div> <div> <br> </div> <div>The new system is designed to standardize processes and eliminate redundancies for employees managing public records. Communications Director Dan Wilson says, “It’s a big advancement in the City’s ongoing effort to improve efficiency in fulfilling public records requests.” </div> <div> <br> </div> <div>It’s important to note that PRRs submitted through the previous system are already in progress and should not be resubmitted through the new system.

That year, the International Conference on Discrimination Against Indigenous Populations in the Americas began conversations of replacing Columbus Day in the Americas. In 1992, the City Council of Berkeley instituted Indigenous Peoples' Day, and since then, other cities and states have followed suit. In 2021, President Joe Biden formally commemorated the holiday with a proclamation. <br></p> <p>As part of the resolution approved by Phoenix Mayor and Council, Indigenous Peoples' Day will become a paid city holiday beginning this year (2023).<br></p> <p>City offices will be closed for Indigenous Peoples' Day on Monday, October 9, 2023. City services available that day will follow a similar pattern to Martin Luther King Jr. Day, President's Day or Cesar Chavez Day.<br></p> </html></div>https://www.phoenix.gov/citymanagerNewscity-managerCity Manager

While these measures are not being considered by Phoenix City Council, they certainly impact our community. </span></p> <p> <span data-contrast="auto" lang="EN-US">Here’s what you need to know:</span> <span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":240}"> </span> </p> <h2> <span data-contrast="auto" lang="EN-US">The City of Phoenix opposes the following bills:</span> <span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335551550":2,"335551620":2,"335559739":160,"335559740":240}"> </span> </h2> <p> <span data-contrast="auto" lang="EN-US"> <strong>Senate Bill 1117 – Restrictions to Zoning Local Authority and Public Input </strong> </span> <span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":240}"> </span> </p> <p> <span data-contrast="auto" lang="EN-US">SB1117 entirely removes residents' ability to have a say in how their neighborhoods look and feel. The bill preempts cities and towns in all housing matters and prohibits any “undue burden” on a developer. Under this law, developers would be able to ignore zoning districts, codes, design standards, parking requirements, walkability standards, and other conditions. The bill eliminates the citizen review process for residential and multifamily developments, which will prevent residents from learning about projects or providing input. It prohibits planning commissions from reviewing housing projects, getting community input and providing recommendation to our City Council. </span> <span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":0,"335559740":240}"> </span> </p> <p> <span data-contrast="auto" lang="EN-US"> <strong>House Bill 2094 – Licensing and Fingerprinting of Mobile Food Vendors</strong> </span> <span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":240}"> </span> </p> <p> <span data-contrast="auto" lang="EN-US">HB 2094 prohibits local governments from requiring mobile food vendors operators to submit fingerprint clearance cards. This would upend the City of Phoenix’s current licensure program which has successfully been in place for decades after food and ice cream truck operators came together with residents to develop a system that worked for our community.</span> <span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":0,"335559740":240}"> </span> </p> <p> <span data-contrast="auto" lang="EN-US">Due to public safety concerns, mobile food vendors are required to be fingerprinted prior to being issued a license to operate. It is important for us to go through the extra step of fingerprinting in order to assure our residents’ safety due to their proximity to residentially zoned property and interaction with children. </span> <span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":240}"> </span> </p> <p> <span data-contrast="auto" lang="EN-US"> <strong>Senate Bill 1162 – Limiting Local Authority of Home-Based Businesses</strong> </span> <span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":240}"> </span> </p> <p> <span data-contrast="auto" lang="EN-US">SB 1162 would limit local authority over businesses operating out of a residential home and make it much more difficult to manage the needs of neighboring property owners. The City of Phoenix currently works in collaboration with home-based business owners and their communities to strike a balance that works for everyone, SB 1162 upends this balance.</span> <span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":240}"> </span> </p> <p> <span data-contrast="auto" lang="EN-US">The City of Phoenix currently allows residential home-based businesses that do not detract from the residential feel and characteristics of the neighborhood by requiring standards to operate a home-based business. Allowing a home-based business by-right and not allowing the City to require the standard already in place could be detrimental to Phoenix neighborhoods.</span> <span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":240}"> </span> </p> <p> <span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":240}"> <br> </span> </p> <h2> <span data-contrast="auto" lang="EN-US">The City of Phoenix supports the following bills:</span> <span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335551550":2,"335551620":2,"335559739":160,"335559740":240}"> </span> </h2> <p> <span data-contrast="auto" lang="EN-US"> <strong>Senate Bill 1585 – Funding for Homelessness  </strong> </span> <span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":240}"> </span> </p> <p> <span data-contrast="auto" lang="EN-US">SB 1585 appropriates $155 million for various measures to mitigate and prevent homelessness. If passed, the City of Phoenix could apply for grants to provide sanctioned housing for unsheltered individuals experiencing homelessness. This would go a long way in our efforts to address the homelessness crisis.</span> <span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":240}"> </span> </p> <p> <span data-contrast="auto" lang="EN-US"> <strong>Senate Bill 1541 – Permanent Funding for Affordable Housing</strong>  </span> <span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":240}"> </span> </p> <p> <span data-contrast="auto" lang="EN-US">SB 1541 provides a permanent funding stream for the Housing Trust Fund. This Fund provides grants to develop affordable housing opportunities for low- and moderate-income households as well as funding for homeless shelters, transitional housing, eviction prevention and rapid rehousing. With a secure funding source, the Housing Trust Fund will be able to make a positive impact on the current housing crisis. </span> <span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":240}"> </span> </p> <p> <span data-contrast="auto" lang="EN-US"> <strong>House Bill 2381 – Increase in Relocation Funding for Displaced Residents Due to Mobile Home Park Redevelopments</strong> </span> <span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":240}"> </span> </p> <p> <span data-contrast="auto" lang="EN-US">HB 2381 would increase the amount the Arizona Department of Housing will issue a tenant who is required to relocate due to redevelopment of a mobile home park from $7,500 to $12,500 for a single section mobile home or $12,500 to $20,000 for a multi-section mobile home. Although this is not enough to cover the cost of forced relocation, this is a step in the right direction and will provide much needed relief to displaced residents. </span> </p> <br> </html></div>https://www.phoenix.gov/citymanagerNewscity-managerCity Manager
