Item Number: 3. +r p- W�rm�M CITY 01 IOWA CITY www.icgov.org September 19, 2019 Article from Assistant City Manager: First 'High -Tech Census' Raises Stakes for Local Government ATTACHMENTS: Description Article from Assistant City Manager: First'High-Tech Census' Raises Stakes for Local Government 9/17/2019 September 17, 2019 AT 3:01 AM First 'High -Tech Census' Raises Stakes for Local Govemment Article from Assistant City Manager - Monroe Much of the discussion about the 2020 U.S. Census has been dominated by President Trump's push to add a citizenship question, as well as critics who say he's doing so to undermine the count. But officials across the country are also grappling with conducting a Census in a country and world that have drastically changed in the past decade due to an acceleration of technology and new online threats. Basically, when the 2020 U.S. Census arrives next spring, it will be seeking to accurately count a vastly different country than the one it surveyed 10 years ago. The reference day used for the Census will again be April 1, as it has been since 1930, and the geographic space the Census covers will be the same. So too will the people, for the most part. What has changed since the federal government took its last sweeping decennial count of the population, however, is the way society engages with, shares, uses and values information. The United States has counted its citizenry every 10 years since 1790, collecting data that includes age, gender, ethnicity and address, among other fields. Once the count is finished, the information is used by the federal government to plan how to best serve residents in a number of ways, including funding for health care, education, transportation, employment services and more. It is also used to help determine where to build vital infrastructure such as schools, roads and hospitals. Then there's political representation: Census data helps determine how many congressional seats certain areas get to represent them at the state and federal levels. Funding and political representation have been at the forefront of recent conversations about why the Census matters. But what is perhaps less talked about is how the modern value of data — and the way local and state governments use it in tech and innovation offices — has made getting an accurate count all the more important. Unlike 10 years ago, we now live in a world in which more local governments are using data to guide their decisions. Some of the actual data in that equation is often derived from the Census, increasing the stakes for communities this time around. At the same time, the public's relationship with willingly surrendering data has become fraught. Hacks and data breaches are common, and the national climate is one in which many people are more reticent to share the exact information the Census seeks. At the same time, experts say bad actors online may be using the Census as a point of attack, warning about everything from foreign powers launching misinformation campaigns to petty criminals setting up fake websites to steal personal information for financial gain. Meanwhile, younger generations like millennials are all but unreachable via traditional methods of correspondence like phone, mail or door-to-door visits. https:/t wwv.goveming.com/newslheadlines/First-High-Tech-Census-Raises-Stakes-for-Local-Gov.html?utm term -First %5Cu2018High-Tech Census... 1/4 9/17/2019 First'High-Tech Census' Raises Stakes for Local Government What this all adds up to is a far more complicated — and more high-stakes — environment for the U.S. Census Bureau to work within. But there are ways that local, county and state governments can assist. They are, after all, far more knowledgeable about the people being counted in their communities than their federal counterparts. What it comes down to, experts say, is understanding how the count will be taken, why it matters and what needs to be done to reach people and ensure they will be counted. When it comes to understanding how the count is taken, it is perhaps most important for local and state governments to realize there has been a major change for 2020: For the first time ever, residents can fill out the Census online. For whatever reason, however, this has been misconstrued by some to mean that all citizens will be required to do this, and that the old methods — mail, phone and in-person visits — have been abandoned. Terri Ann Lowenthal is a nationally recognized Census expert who was the staff director of the U.S. House of Representatives Census oversight subcommittee from 1987 to 1994. She also covered the Census Bureau for the 2008 Obama Presidential Transition Team. This year, she is advising many state and city Census support efforts. Within that work, Lowenthal has identified frequent misgivings over the idea that this will be the nation's first fully digital Census, misgivings that she says are perhaps unfounded, owing to vague terminology. "I think the term `digital Census' suggests to many people that the response part of the Census will be done only online," Lowenthal said, "and that in fact has created a lot of worry at the community and local government level. The Census Bureau itself never used the term `digital Census."' Lowenthal instead uses the phrase "first high-tech Census," meaning that Internet response is now an option for filling out the survey, but it is by no means the only way to respond. As a result, concerns at the local level that the Census will leave behind residents without access to the Internet are unfounded. Misunderstanding aside, Lowenthal says there are advantages to this high-tech Census. "No one argues with the need to modernize the Census," Lowenthal said. "I find it ironic that people could buy Girl Scout cookies online before they could respond to the nation's decennial Census online. Technology makes the Census more cost effective. Responding online is the least expensive way to gather data, and the Census Bureau is using technology not only to collect data, but also to prepare for the Census. ... It has to know where every housing unit is, because the Census doesn't just count people — it has to put them in the right location." Things like satellite imaging, construction permit databases for residential housing and other new data sets that have been collected or digitized in the past decade all stand to make the Census Bureau's work easier by giving them a better idea of where people live. The Census also has new access to administrative records that can help them count people who don't respond, although that is far from ideal. That all is the upshot of technology. Conversely, having an online option to answer the Census creates potential for phishing attacks in which criminals trick the public into surrendering personal info. It also opens the country up as a whole to disinformation campaigns from foreign actors seeking to disrupt our political processes by fouling up the count. "There is significant concern among local officials — and understandably so — that social media will be a conduit for rapidly spreading false information about the Census," Lowenthal said. "For example, in relation to who should respond and how Census data can and cannot be used." Local governments can help the Census Bureau here by drowning out falsities with accurate information, and by designing messaging campaigns with their own communities in mind that will effectively tell people the things they must know to stay safe and get counted correctly. https://www.goveming.com/news/headlines/First-High-Tech-Census-Raises-Stakes-for-Local-Gov.html?utm_term=First %5UM8High-Tech Census... 214 9/17/2019 First `High -Tech Census' Raises Stakes for Local Government The other focus of local governments when it comes to messaging, experts say, should be making sure their communities know why it is so important to get accurate Census data. The idea that the Census is important because it influences funding and representation is perhaps an over- simplification. Andrew Reamer is a research professor at the George Washington Public Policy Institute at The George Washington University in Washington, D.C. He is a nationally recognized expert in what Census data is used for, and specifically how it affects funding. Reamer said that it is very rare for the Census data itself to directly influence exact dollar amounts for funding. What happens is that for the next 10 years, other data sets that are derived from the Census actually dictate these things. This also has the potential to vary by state, with some states' federal funding allocation written into state law based on Census -derived data. What also might be unknown to most folks — both in government and within communities — is that Census -derived data influences private -sector decisions. "Businesses use data derived from the Census to find out where to locate operations," Reamer said. "Target and Starbucks never locate a new operation without looking at the Census data. They have to understand how many people live in an area, what are their characteristics, how much money they have. If you're Target, you don't have cookie -cutter stores. Data will affect what you have inside, how you market, and how you advertise." For some, it might be enough to learn that if they don't fill out their Census, the state highway authority might not have enough federal funding to repair roads. For others, however, it might ultimately be more effective to stress that not responding to the Census could determine whether or not they have a Starbucks at the end of their block that they can walk to. This all comes back to the idea that state and local governments know how best to reach the people in their areas, or, failing that, know how to recruit volunteers and staff who can. In fact, across the country, many state and local government leaders are doing their best to support the federal Census Bureau by acting as conveners, and by working with nonprofits and other groups who know the people even better than they do. San Jose, Calif., Mayor Sam Liccardo understands what's at stake for his city with the Census, estimating that for every person missed, his community could lose roughly $2,000. As a leader of a city that consists of 40 percent residents born in another country, he also understands the challenges of crafting messaging for specific communities. This has been a focus of the city hall's work there to support the count, as has working with groups outside of government. "We're doing some customary things and some unorthodox things," Liccardo said. "I think cities throughout the country are finding ways to message in multiple languages, to find trusted third parties such as churches and nonprofit organizations that can communicate the importance of the Census in their communities, and engaging many partners to ensure that we're all working together." Some of the unique things that San Jose has been doing include working with partners to create a texting app that cart 'lielp'locate residences ti -tat aren'i ort the ruap. This is technology that helps partners like nonprofits and faith -based organizations take to the streets and identify signs of unorthodox housing situations, such as families living in garages, accessory dwelling units or other makeshift homes within a community affected by the soaring cost of living in Silicon Valley. With the texting app, San Jose has been able to geolocate these units on the map. They can then use that data in the future to better organize Census support efforts. Part of the city's work with community groups includes clearly communicating that data being gathered for the Census won't be used for other governmental purposes. "We have a lot of distrust to overcome as a result of the actions in Washington," Liccardo said. https://www.governing.com/news/headlines/First-High-Tech-Census-Raises-Stakes-for-Local-Gov.html?utm_term=First %5Cu2018High-Tech Census... 3/4 9/17/2019 First'High-Tech Census' Raises Stakes for Local Government San Jose is also leveraging unique partnerships with tech businesses in the area, including a particularly interesting one with Niantic, the company that makes the popular augmented reality game, Pokemon Go. In the past, Niantic has hosted events within Pokemon Go that require players going to a special area in the city to find rare Pokemon, areas that just so happen to be where they can also register to vote. That effort was a success in San Jose, and Liccardo says something similar may be helpful to spark engagement again for the Census, especially with the often -elusive millennial generation. "Nobody ever thought Pikachu would be a partner of local government," the mayor said, "but we go where the people are." San Jose is just one example, but it speaks to the idea that local government and the groups it works with are well-suited to help the Census by leveraging their intimate knowledge of communities to get the word out, emphasizing why this is important while helping to drown out misinformation campaigns. While the modern era is an increasingly complex one for a federal agency tasked with accurate data collection, there are also new cost-efficient tools that can be leveraged to help. The more that local governments embrace and understand that now, well in advance of the actual count, the better off their communities will be not just on April 1, but in the following decade that depends on Census data. https://www.goveming.com/news/headlines/First-High-Tech-Census-Raises-Stakes-for-Local-Gov.html?utm_term=First %Ku2018High-Tech Census... 4/4 Item Number: 4. +r p- W�rm�M CITY O� IOWA CITY www.icgov.org September 19, 2019 Article from Assistant to the City Manager: Why Downtown Retail is Coming Back ATTACHMENTS: Description Article from Assistant to the City Manager: Why Downtown Retail is Coming Back Why downtown retail is coming back I CNU Page 1 Article from Assistant to City Manager MARKETS (/PUBLICSQUARE/CATEGORY/MARKETS) Why downtown retail is coming back Even as e-commerce takes market share and national chain stores close, demographic shifts have created a growth market for downtown retail and mixed-use.

In 1964, British pop singer Petula Clark released Downtown (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zxo6XNfDvko), a number one hit in the US, celebrating the excitement and magnetism of city cores, "where everything's waiting for you." Downtowns, unfortunately, were already heading into a multigenerational death spiral, and nowhere was this reality more apparent than retail sales, which decanted to malls and big box stores in the suburbs. In a few short decades, downtowns lost up to 90 percent (https://www.cnu.org/publicsquare/20ig/o8/26/brief -history-retail- and-mixed-use) of their retail market share. https://www.enu.org/publicsquare/2019/09/10/new-day-downtown-retail 9/16/2019 Why downtown retail is coming back I CNU Page 3 Population also declined, especially the middle class and wealthy, a trend that has reversed in the last two decades. As downtowns and adjacent neighborhoods repopulate, their lack of retail represents a vacuum to be filled. While America as a whole is vastly over -retailed, downtowns are under - retailed. They have as little as one-tenth of the retail per person as suburbs, says urban planner and retail expert Robert Gibbs. "Retailers have saturated the suburbs and the next underserved market is the inner cities. And they are also thinking that it will be a trend and growth market." The Fashion District in Philadelphia is the major US retail project opening this month, a test of whether brick -and -mortar stores can complete as an investment in the e-commerce era, according to the Commercial Observer (https://commercialobserver.com/2019/09/fashion-district-philly/). Yet the 838,000 square foot outward -facing mall, spanning three blocks on Center City's East Market Street, is less a test of physical stores than it is a bellwether for urban retail. Center City is gaining substantial population (close to 200,000, second only to Midtown Manhattan among downtown cores), and the demographics are changing toward professional millennials, the emerging Gen Z, and retiring Baby Boomers. Unless there is a major economic recession in the next few years, the Fashion District is poised to do very well. And, chances are, the Fashion District will draw shoppers regionally, benefitting other merchants in Center City, such as Macy's—which runs a flagship store two blocks away. Early next year, https://www.cnu.org/publicsquare/2019/09/ l 0/new-day-downtown-retail 9/16/2019 Why downtown retail is coming back I CNU Page 4 an AMC multiplex cinema will open on East Market— another anchor, and an amenity that is surprisingly absent in a downtown of this size. Center City will once again be the dominant retail destination in a region of six million people, which hasn't been the case since the 1960s. Cue Petula Clark, who is now 86 and still performing. They're back just a few years ago, Detroit went through bankruptcy and was considered an urban basket -case, having lost a quarter of its population from 2000-2010. But downtown Detroit has experienced a renaissance this decade of jobs and population, and the mixed-use has followed. This spring the city gained an anchor in a 25,000 square foot H&M store, to join other well-known stores that have located along Woodward Avenue in recent years. H&M is occupying the ground floor of three historic buildings—a far cry from the 199os, when national chains exclusively built stores and in malls and strip centers fronted by acres of parking. H&M, the second largest clothing retailer worldwide, is one of many top retailers that are opening stores in walkable urban locations with street -facing storefronts. Target, the 8th largest (https://stores.org/stores-top-retailers-2019/) US retailer, has pursued an urban strategy since 2016—and in the last three years nearly all of Target's openings have been small -format urban stores in major cities and college towns. Target has increased its revenue, earnings, and assets every year since adopting this strategy. https://www.cnu.org/publicsquare/2019/09/10/new-day-downtown-retail 9/16/2019 Why downtown retail is coming back CNU Page 5 As the media focuses on e-commerce and the "retail apocalypse (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retail_ apocalypse)"—widespread closures of name -brand stores like Sears, Bon -Ton, and Payless Shoes—the positive news of downtown retail has gotten comparatively little coverage. All of the experts on urban mixed-use that I have interviewed agree that downtowns are coming back, and that analysis is backed up by research and observation. "Yes, there is demand for, and a return of, retail downtown—it's not a fad" says Lee Sobel, a commercial real estate expert and program specialist with the US Department of Housing and Urban Development. Starting with the "creative class" and the rise of the knowledge economy, downtowns have become more competitive in the last two decades, he says. They were largely 9 - 5 p.m. business environments in the 199os, and now they offer activity 18 hours a day with unique experiences and formats, such as food halls and pop-up spaces. "They fill niche, irregular spaces that are created from unusual circumstances that you don't find in the suburbs," Sobel says. Walkable urban retail is growing and typically commands rent premiums, according to Foot Traffic Ahead: Ranking Walkable Urbanism in America's Largest Metro Areas, 2olg, by George Washington University School of Business and Smart Growth America. Since 2016, retail in regionally significant "walkable urban places" grew as a percentage of the total market in 21 of the top 30 metro areas, remained the same in 5, and declined in 4, according to Foot Traffic Ahead. https://www.enu.org/publicsquare/2019/09/10/new-day-downtown-retail 9/16/2019 Why downtown retail is coming back CNU Page 6 A mixed-use district in San Francisco. Source: Foot Traffic Ahead. Even as chain stores close, urban places can gain retail, notes Sharon Woods of LandUseUSA I Urban Strategies, a market research and analysis firm. "If a ioo,000 square foot building goes dark in a mall, Zo,000 square feet can open up in a city center that is underserved and gaining population," she says. "City centers used to be the centers for retail. There is an opportunity to recapture some of that role as retail is collapsing elsewhere." Kennedy Smith, an expert on Main Street economics, adds that "Whenever a major national retail chain announces that it is closing stores, "we immediately look to see where the stores are closing and alert clients that there is `x' million square feet of unmet demand in their area." https://www.cnu.org/publicsquare/2019/09/10/new-day-downtown-retail 9/16/2019 Why downtown retail is coming back I CNU Page 7 Getting an anchor store is key for cities, notes Gibbs. "Grocery stores are one of the best downtown retailers," he says. "On average they increase regional sales 25 percent for all surrounding businesses. Department stores are the single best anchor for regional downtown shopping districts. They increase surrounding retail sales by about 35 percent and are responsible for about one-third of all visitors." Downtowns are not single -use strips Downtowns and main streets are mixed-use places, and urban retail will be accompanied by many other kinds of storefront businesses—such as professional offices, salons and other services, entertainment venues, and even civic and not-for-profit uses. "Retail was never the major component of healthy downtowns—no more than 15-2o percent of square footage," says Smith. Downtowns tend to have a more diverse mix, and that includes more independent restaurants. There are 11 restaurant chains in the top loo US retail corporations, totaling $135 billion in sales. With the exception of Starbucks, none of them can compete with the quality of food and service that independents provide in downtown locations—from street vendors to fine dining. Downtowns typically have fewer national chains in general than suburban malls and big box power centers. "In vibrant hot downtowns, national chains are typically only 10 percent of overall retail composition," says Smith. "They always gravitate to `loo percent' corners, so people perceive chain stores to be occupying more space than there are." https://www.cnu.org/publicsquare/2019/09/10/new-day-downtown-retail 9/16/2019 Why downtown retail is coming back I CNU Page 8 National chain stores can be beneficial to downtowns, she adds—they offer name brands that people recognize and they signal a level of economic performance that is reassuring to lenders and other businesses. Nevertheless, most of Smith's clients are not looking for national retailers downtown—they want the "serendipity" of unique local businesses. Downtowns come in various types and sizes. Not all of them are going to get a department store, or even a grocery store. "There are 29,000 towns and cities in US," Smith says. "Not many main streets are sought out by national retailers. In a traditional downtown, what we need to plan for is two or three clusters of businesses. If you have that, you are creating visibility and driving in traffic." It ain't easy Racism is one reason for so little retail in cities, says Gibbs. "A lot of decision makers in the industry are biased against low-income minority families and think they don't shop. If Tj Max is opening stores in the Detroit region, brokers will not show them downtown Detroit. They are redlined out." Downtowns have other challenges. One is ownership of buildings, frequently by "family trusts" —inheritors of wealth that may lack motivation to make to change. Retailers like Kohl's or Tj Max require owners to invest substantial sums before they will locate in historic buildings, Gibbs says. "Many of the downtown property owners would rather get low rent than pay that $300,000 to prepare the building." https://www.cnu.org/publicsquare/2019/09/10/new-day-downtown-retail 9/16/2019 Why downtown retail is coming back I CNU Page 9 Cities are sometimes their own enemies. Planning decisions over the years have hurt "shopability (https://www.cnu.org/publicsquare/2O19/O7/29/problems-and- solutions-main-street-retail)," Gibbs says. "They have eliminated on - street parking and done a lot of basic things wrong. But the market is there for more downtown retail and a lot of retailers are realizing this." Yet downtowns have market advantages over new urban, mixed-use centers in the suburbs. "They offer history and placemaking and realness that a lot of people looking for," Gibbs says. "But they don't have a management advantage. They have multiple property owners and, often, bad parking." The hostility of planners and economic development directors to national retailers is also hurting downtowns, Gibbs says. "People want downtowns to be a theme park, and they go there for entertainment—to walk around and feel like you are in Mayberry. Then they do their shopping at the mall and online. "When successful, downtowns sell goods and services that people need. Downtowns should return to that fundamental role, which they served in the 195Os." Some cities have done just that, Gibbs says. In the Charleston, South Carolina, region, "King Street (on the historic Lower Peninsula) is the place to open a store. When Apple came into the market, they chose King Street over two malls. It has higher sales—it was a pure business decision." https://www.cnu.org/publicsquare/2019/09/10/new-day-downtown-retail 9/16/2019 Why downtown retail is coming back I CNU Page 10 "While shopping centers are still a viable land use, a renewed interest in urban living, working, shopping and dining, has positioned downtowns ... to reclaim market share and attract the amenities and development to improve the quality of life for the community," Gibbs notes.
