Okay,
I
am
organizing
a
tour
of
the
South
San
Francisco
scavenger
facility
with
Teresa,
who
presented
to
us,
maybe
a
few
meetings
ago.
I
think
in
maybe
September
I
organized
it
for
my
graduate
program.
But
if
anyone
would
like
to
join
us
feel
free
to
send
me
an
email
and
I
can
add
you
to
our
list.
When
is
it
it's?
This
Thursday
at
2PM.
C
B
H
B
C
I
I
B
A
A
So
we
thought
kind
of
having
a
little
bit
of
an
overview
of
this
process
might
be
a
good
idea
and
seems
like
we
had
a
little
bit
of
space
on
our
agenda
to
accommodate
it
this
month.
So
I
will
go
ahead
and
just
pass
it
to
Julia
thanks
Julia
for
agreeing
to
meet
with
us
and
and
do
this
and
I
think
you
should
have
the
ability
to
share
screen
yourself.
But
let
me
know
if
not.
J
I
do
and
okay.
Oh
there
I
go
sorry
to
disappoint
everyone,
but
I
don't
have
a
long.
Slideshow
I
will
have
a
visual
aid
or
two
and
then
some
resources
at
the
end
that
we
can
look
at
together.
If
you
want
but
anyways
nice
to
meet
everyone
who
I
don't
already
know,
I'm
senior
planner,
Julia
Ayers
I've
been
with
the
city
since,
when
making
any
decision
on
on
a
project
or
activity
that
will
have
environmental
impacts,
that
can't
be
mitigated.
J
J
J
You
can
check
out
the
guidelines,
there's
a
lot
of
really
great
PDFs
kind
of
walking
through
just
again
like
the
basic
process
and
I'll
plug
that
at
the
end,
SQL
is,
of
course,
entwined
with
the
land
use
entitlement
process
carried
out
by
cities
for
new
development,
so
entitlement
permits
are
basically
permits
that
are
granted
to
entitle
a
project
to
be
built
to
get
a
building
permit
and
actually
get
constructed.
So
examples
of
these
are
like
a
design
permit
or
a
specific
plan.
J
For
example,
those
are
entitlement
permits
that
the
city
processes
that
the
city
uses
its
discretion
to
approve
or
deny
those
those
projects
and
discretion
is
key
to
applicability
of
SQL
to
a
project,
so
land
use
entitlement
processing
review
is
governed
by
another
state
statute,
called
the
permit
streamlining
act,
as
you
can
probably
gauge
from
the
name.
The
regulations
in
the
permit
streamlining
act
are
intended
to
set
time
limits
on
cities
in
terms
of
how
they
can
process
applications.
Yes,
Michelle
you're,
muted,.
C
C
J
Problem,
as
you
can
tell,
this
is
my
passion
so
again,
so
permit
streamlining
act
basically
sets
limits
on
jurisdictions
on
cities
when
they
get
a
planning
application,
an
entitlement
application.
We
have
a
set
amount
of
time
to
review
that
application.
That's
all
tied
to
environmental
review
under
sequel
as
well,
so
both
SQL
permit
streamlining
act,
work
together
to
basically
govern
any
major
development
project.
That's
submitted
to
the
city
for
consideration,
okay,
so
here's
where
I'll
pull
up
my
visual
aid.
J
J
So
what
I've
thrown
up
here
is
a
nice
simple,
SQL
process
flow
chart
and
I
can
enlarge
this
if
that
helps
and
I'm
not
going
to
like
narrate
exactly
the
process
in
this,
but
I
just
think
it's
a
helpful
reference
as
I
walk
through
the
whole
process.
So
as
soon
as
my
department,
the
Community
Development
Department
receives
an
entitlement
application
like
a
design
permit
or
like
a
specific
plan.
J
The
permit
streamlining
act
kicks
in,
and
it
says
basically
planning
staff
has
30
days
from
submittal
of
that
application
to
review
it
for
completeness.
Does
it
have
all
of
the
required
elements
that
the
city
has
has
set
out
and
published
and
has
to
be
on
our
website
and
accessible?
These
aren't
secret
requirements.
J
Does
it
have
all
of
the
mandatory
items
that
we
require
to
process?
So
completeness
is
a
pretty
important
stage,
just
internally,
obviously
planning
we.
We
would
review
a
application
internally.
We
distribute
it
to
every
Department
in
the
city.
We
would
also
for
large-scale
projects
likely
be
Distributing
it
to
county-wide
agencies
that
have
some
sort
of
jurisdiction,
whether
it's
therapy,
you
know
issuing
a
permit
down
the
line
for
some
sort
of
component
of
the
project
or
have
some
other
sort
of
responsibility
for
part
of
the
project.
Also
state
agencies.
J
If
there
are
any
state
agencies
that
are
either
issuing
permits
or
we're
going
to
have
some
sort
of
review
and
intersection
with
the
project
approval
process,
so
the
30-day
window
for
completeness
is
triggered
once
we
get
an
application
once
we
go
through
that
process,
once
we
determine
okay,
we
have
everything
we
need.
The
application
is
complete
once
that
determination
of
completeness
comes
through.
That
starts
another
important
clock
in
terms
of
we
need
to
decide.
Are
we
going
to
prepare
an
environmental
document
for
this
project
or
not?
J
Is
this
project
exempt
from
SQL
if
it's
exempt
carry
on
our
way?
No
further
action
required,
however,
we're
in
the
world
tonight
of
these
are
bigger
projects.
So,
yes,
if
an
eir
is
required,
there
are
certain
time
limits
limits
that
kick
in
that
essentially
are
from
that
completeness
state.
So,
for
example,
we
have
30
days,
sometimes
45
can
get
into
the
distinction
of
when
that
occurs.
J
From
the
day
we
say
this
application
is
complete
to
decide
whether
or
not
we're
preparing
an
environmental
impact
report
or
another
type
of
document
called
a
negative
declaration
and
I
can
go
into
the
differences
between
those
two.
If
we're
interested
and
then
there's
certain
other
actions
that
are
kind
of
dominoing.
From
from
that
decision,
as
well
I
think
probably
the
most
important
thing
to
think
about
tonight
is
basically
we
have
a
year
from
the
time
we
determine
an
application
to
be
complete
to
actually
complete
and
certify.
J
The
eir
not
sounds
like
a
lot
of
time,
but
it's
really
not,
and
there
are
some
Provisions
for
potentially
extending
that
with
agreement
of
the
applicant
but
about
a
year
and
then
the
agency
has
to
actually
act
on
the
project,
approve
or
deny
the
project
itself
within
six
months
from
certifying
the
eir,
so
yeah
Jason
go
ahead.
Can.
J
D
J
Yeah
and
there's
an
obviously
an
evaluation
that
has
to
occur.
That
is,
frankly
for
larger
projects.
The
city
is
always
going
to
hire
a
environmental
consultant
to
complete
that
evaluation.
The
consultant
works
for
the
city,
not
the
not
the
developer
but
yeah,
almost
always
yeah.
There's
a
third
party
who's
actually
preparing
the
environmental
document,
whether
it's
a
negative
declaration
or
an
environmental
impact
or
PIR.
K
J
J
J
Developer
but
the
developer
is
not
paying
the
consultant
so
the
basically
the
city
hires,
a
consultant,
typically
especially
for
a
larger
process.
They're
gonna,
we're
gonna
issue
a
request
for
proposals
and
have
multiple
bids
submitted
and
the
consultant
will
be
selected
through
that
process.
Contract
will
be
signed
and
we
collect
payment
from
the
developer
and
use
that
to
pay
the
consultant.
So
with
the
city
being
the
middle
person,
we
are
the
client.
J
Okay,
okay,
so
sorry
we
I
kind
of
I
kind
of
jumped
us
forward.
Now,
I'm
gonna
reel
a
little
bit
back.
So
we
have
this
application.
We've
determined
that
we're
going
to
prepare
an
eir.
This
project
has
the
potential
to
have
a
significant
impact
on
the
environment.
So
sequest
says
we
have
to
prepare
an
eir.
J
A
ministerial
project
is
one
which
we
are
not
talking
about
tonight,
but
basically,
a
men's
show.
Project
is
a
project
that
requires
no
discretion
on
the
city's
part
in
their
action
on
it
in
Brisbane.
An
example
of
that
is
a
building
permit
if
you
apply
for
a
building
permit
and
everything
in
your
building.
Permit
Proposal
complies
with
the
building
code,
complies
with
Planning
and
Zoning
doesn't
trigger
like
a
design
permit
or
any
discretionary
action.
The
city
there's
no
debate,
it's
either.
Yes,
you
check
all
these
boxes.
J
J
Sql
applies
to
discretionary
actions
or
actions
where
the
city
can
say
we
could
approve
it,
let's
consider
its
Merit
or
we
could
deny
it.
Obviously
we
have
findings
and
we
don't
just
capriciously,
make
decisions
to
approve
or
deny
discretionary
applications,
but
that's
the
difference
ministerial
is.
We
have
no
choice.
It's
if
they're
meeting
all
these
criteria
it
gets
approved
or
issued
discretionary
is
well.
We
have
discretion.
We
can
look
at
the
merits
of
an
application
and
and
go
one
way
or
the
other,
and
sequa
is
a
discretionary.
J
It
applies
to
discretionary
decisions.
Okay,
okay,
so
we
have
a
discretionary
project.
It's
going
to
require
an
eir,
so
we
have
to
tell
everybody
that
we're
going
to
prepare
an
eir,
so
the
city
or
our
consultants
usually
will
prepare
a
notice
of
preparation
that
has
project
information,
says
we're
going
to
create
it,
we're
going
to
be
drafting
an
eir
and
invites
comments
from
the
public
from
other
state
agencies.
County
agencies-
this
is
something
that's
distributed.
You
know
to
far
and
wide
essentially
has
a
deadline
for
folks
to
basically
submit
their
comments.
J
J
There
is
a
timing
attached
to
the
notice
of
preparation
as
well.
That,
typically,
is
about
a
30-day
it's
a
30-day
process
for
people
to
submit
their
comments,
while
not
required.
It
is
also
pretty
standard,
at
least
in
Brisbane,
in
most
cities,
to
hold
a
scoping
meeting
during
that
window
of
time.
So,
in
addition
to
letting
people
send
in
written
comments,
the
scoping
meeting
is
in
person
or
virtual
these
days
for
folks
to
come
in
and
address
the
consultants
and
the
city
staff
with
their
items
of
concerned.
J
J
J
Analyzes
all
types
of
technical
kind
of
data
collection
on
the
project
impacts
would
occur.
They
also
the
IR
is
always
going
to
have
also
Baseline
conditions.
So
what
are
what
are
things
like
before
the
project
is
even
built?
So
let's
establish
our
Baseline
and
then
what
will
the
project
do
to
all
these
Baseline
conditions?
J
So
we
collect
all
the
scoping
comments
during
the
scoping
period
from
the
notice
of
preparation.
We
are
hard
at
work
preparing
an
eir.
We
have
a
draft
ready,
great
we're
going
to
publish
a
draft
eir
so
basically,
once
the
draft
dir
is
ready
for
public
viewing.
After
going
through
some
administrative
review
internally
published.
We
also
then
circulate
a
notice
of
completion
that
tells
everybody
that
we
had
already
notified.
We
were
preparing
one
that
hey,
we
finished
it
it's
available
for
review.
J
That
starts
a
public
review
period,
the
public
review
period
for
draft
eirs
that
have
to
go
under
review
by
state
agencies
which,
in
Brisbane
I
think
most
of
our
bigger
projects.
That's
the
case
for,
for
those
there's
a
minimum
45
day
period.
Let
me
just
double
check
that
yeah
45
days
minimum
for
public
review
of
a
draft
year.
J
C
Sorry
to
have
so
many
questions,
but
I've
been
through
this
process
a
few
times
and
I've
always
wondered
about
these
things.
So
once
you
have
a
final
eir,
what,
if
they're?
Is
it
again
a
litigation
issue?
If
a
group
of
people
or
people
don't
agree
with
the
the
answers
to
the
comments
were
sufficient,
then
what
happens.
J
That's
a
great
question:
I
wish
I
was
a
SQL
land
use
attorney
and
can
give
you
a
super
fast
answer.
I
would
I
would
defer.
Basically,
I
can
research
that
a
little
bit
more
and
get
back
to
you,
but
generally
if
the
members
of
the
public
have
been
again
communicating
their
concerns
throughout
the
whole
process.
It's
all
on
the
record,
and
you
know
the
city
has
a
final
eir
and
moves
to
certify
that
eir.
C
J
Yes,
the
recourse
one
of
the
recourses.
If
the
person
wanted
to
pursue
that
or
the
organization
would
be
to
sue
and
say
that
hey
you
adopted,
you
certified
a
final
eir
and
said
it
was
in
substantial
compliance
with
Sequel,
and
we
disagree
because
we've
been
saying
this
whole
time
that
blah
blah
blah.
J
The
answer,
unfortunately,
with
sequel
or
fortunately,
depending
on
what
side
of
a
particular
issue
you're
on
litigation,
seems
to
me
to
often
be
where
interpretations
of
sequa
are
clarified.
Like
there's
so
much
case,
law
I
mean
those
of
you
that
know
like
their
sequa
there's
a
SQL
guidelines
and
then
there's
like
sequel
case
law
and
it's
both
both
documents
are
very
thick
and
have
equal
pull
on
how
we
apply
SQL
today,
Jason
I
see
your
hand.
D
J
Agency
is
going
to
be
the
agency
preparing
the
eir.
So,
in
the
context
of
our
conversation
tonight,
the
city
of
Brisbane
is
the
lead
Agency,
for
you
know
the
larger
projects
that
we
have
coming
up,
that
we're
trying
to
give
you
guys
that
context
for
a
responsible
agency
is
another
agency
of
another
public
agency
that
has
some
sort
of
Permitting
power.
Well,
there's
yeah,
responsible
and
trustee
agencies.
Let
me
make
sure
I'm
telling
you
the
right
one
but
yeah.
They
also
have
a
permit
that
that
they'd
be
issuing
later
down
the
line.
J
So
like,
let's
see
here's
a
good
example,
the
the
conservation
develop
commission
BCB
the
public
agency.
They
regulate
development
within
100
feet
of
the
shoreline
band.
So,
like
anything
that
goes
out
at
Sierra,
Point
Sierra
Point
is
in
the
city
of
brisbane's
jurisdiction.
We
would
process
the
design
permit,
but
bcdc
would
have
to
issue
a
their
own
permit
to
allow
whatever
development's
occurring
within
their
area
of
jurisdiction
to
move
forward.
J
Okay,
all
right
so
tried
to
get
us
down
to.
We
have
a
final
eir
that
has
responded
to
all
the
comments
submitted
so
and
and
as
if
needed,
provided
revisions
or
additional
information,
although
not
too
much
additional
information,
because
that
might
trigger
a
supplemental
eir,
but
we're
not
going
to
get
too
far
in
the
Weeds
on
that.
J
So
the
city
decision-making
body,
which
could
be
the
Planning
Commission.
If
there
are
no
legislative
actions
requested
or
it
could
be,
the
city
council,
if
like
say,
there's
a
zoning
text
Amendment
since
the
council
has
to
act
on
that
council's
on
the
decision-making
body,
but
it
is
possible
infrequently,
but
it
is
possible
for
planning
commissions
to
actually
be
the
decision-making
bodies
anyway.
Decision-Making
body
says
great.
We
think
this
complies
with
SQL
we're
going
to
certify
this
final
eir,
so
they
make
that
action.
J
There
are
certain
notices
that
we
would
then
file
to
tell
everybody.
We
certified
the
final
eir,
and
at
that
point
we
then
move
on
to
actually
acting
on
the
land
use
entitlements.
So,
bringing
in
again
that
involvement
or
that
that
relationship
between
SQL
and
also
the
permanent
streamlining
act,
we
have
to
act
on
the
project
itself,
approve
or
deny
the
design
permit
or
the
specific
plan
or
whatever,
within
six
months,
from
certifying
the
eir
oftentimes
I'll
go
ahead
and
stop
or
not
oftentimes.
J
J
All
right
kind
of
almost
at
the
end,
okay,
the
last
section
I'll
just
talk
about-
is
who
is
involved
in
the
process.
So
under
the
permit
streamlining
act
and
SQL,
the
main
actors
in
The
entitlement
and
environmental
review
process
are
one.
The
decision-making
body
which
again
are
is
the
the
body
of
the
city,
either.
In
our
case,
the
commission
or
the
city
council
who
are
making
those
those
land
use
approvals
on
the
application.
J
C
J
J
Some
of
them
do
some
of
them
do
some
of
them.
Do
not
legislative
actions
do
not
expire.
So
if
you
know
if
the
city
processes
a
zoning
Amendment
and
adopts
it
by
ordinance,
you
we've
amended
our
zoning
that
doesn't
go
away,
but
if
someone
applies
for
a
design
permit
and
allows
that
design
permit
to
expire
at
the
end
of
the
two-year
it's
the
design
permit
is
valid
for
two
years
it
can
be
extended
by
up
to
three
years
for
a
total
of
five
years.
J
Anyways.
That's
an
example
of
entitlement
permit
that
would
expire,
but
then
you're
I
think
you're
kind
of
also
asking
if
environmental
review
expires,
damn
it
right
or
like
if
environmental
review
is
always
kind
of
set
in
stone,
so
and
that's
also
kind
of
complicated
and
depends
on
the
context
but
I'll
just
say
generally,
like
yes,
there's
kind
of
a
a
kind
of
logical
conclusion
that
has
to
be
part
of
a
SQL
process
for
a
project.
J
C
J
Okay,
well,
I
will
do
my
best
and
again,
I
am
happy
to
follow
up
with
a
little
more
information,
because
I
think
probably
the
community
development
director
would
would
definitely
want
to
put
his
his
spin
on
this,
but
basically
the
if
an
action
for
a
general
plan.
Amendment
say
if
there's
a
general
plan
amendment
that
the
city
was
considering
and
there's
environmental
review
that
was
completed
in
association
with
that
General
plan
Amendment,
we
adopt
the
general
plan
Amendment,
we
reference
the
eir
that
we
certified.
J
J
J
Okay,
is
there
one?
There
is
okay?
Well,
let's
think
about
all
those
things
that
you
brought
up
Michelle.
Are
there
change
circumstances
or
are
there?
You
know
how
valid
is
that
you
are
and
that's
a
decision
that
the
city
makes
there's
no
like,
like
I,
said,
there's
no
like
expiration
period
on
an
ear.
Okay,
it's
all
kind
of
at
the
Judgment
of
the
city
under
thoughtful
consideration.
A
B
B
F
I
heartily
disagree
because
we
actually
get
busted
if
we
work
on
something
that
isn't
on
the
work
plan
and
we
can,
we
can
have
all
these
things
on
our
work
plan
acknowledge
that
we're
not
going
to
work
on
all
of
them
set
our
priorities
ignore
the
other
things.
But
if
something
comes
up
and
we
want
to
work
on
the
other
stuff,
then
then
we
get
in
trouble
and
I
I
think
that's
kind
of
pedantic,
but
that's
the
way
it
goes.
C
D
C
We
just
didn't
get
it
in
front
of
council,
and
so
there
is
value
for
having
things
on
our
work
plan
and
and
the
priority
shifts
based
on
the
interests
of
the
committee
and
the
interest
of
the
council
and
having
it.
There
means
that
we're
not
forgetting
it
dark
skies
has
been
on
the
work
plan
since
I
started
osak
well
like
11
years
ago,
or,
however
long
it
is,
and
it's
finally
finally
surface
to
the
top.
C
Some
stuff
is
like
okay,
you
know
other
stuff,
though
the
long
the
long,
the
long
thought
ones
like
of
updating
the
open
space
and
ecology
plan,
the
invasive
species,
ordinance
the
Dark
Skies
ordinance
the
tree
issues.
Those
are
things
that
are
close
to
my
heart.
Those
are
things
that
I
I
want
to
devote
time
to,
as
we
can
and
I
don't
want
to.
Let
them
go
because
when
we
let
them
go
then
I'm,
you
know,
do
you
understand
where
I'm
at
I
don't
need
to
pontificate.
B
D
I
would
second
what
what
Mary
just
said.
If
we
all
understand
that
that
some
things
just
aren't
going
to
be
done
or
even
possibly
touched,
I'm
cool
with
that,
but
I
mean
it's
frustrating
to
me
to
look
at
this
massive
list
and
and
and
and
know
that
some
things
aren't
going
to
be
touched.
So
if
we
could
actually
vocalize
what
our
focus
is,
what
we're
going
to
go
for
I
would
love
to
keep
pushing
for
the
invasive
species.
D
H
C
If
you
have
a
passion
about
something,
then
it's
going
to
move
up
in
priority
and
that's
what
happened
with
dark
skies.
That's
what's
happening
right
now
with
invasive
species.
You
know,
other
things
are
going
to
fall
by
the
wayside.
Like
the
holiday
tree,
you
know
I
mean,
and
there
are
some
things
that
we
just
do
as
a
community
outreach
like
a
bike
to
work
day.
I
have
like
zero
interest
in
that,
but
other
people
do
a
day
in
the
park.
I
do
have
an
interest
in
because.
D
F
C
D
H
F
D
F
A
So
I
think
it's
it's
helpful
to
note
that
some
of
these
things
are
not
things
that
really
have
that
much
committee
involvement,
but
they're
kind
of
sponsors
of
like
to
work
day
and
is
you
know
one
example,
parks
and
the
park
and
rec
staff
actually
really
does
the
majority
of
the
work
for
that
at
least
since
I've
been
with
the
city.
That's
been
my
understanding.
Sometimes
those
sick
members
like
Barbara
or
you
know
myself
or
Karen-
have
helped
out
that
day.
But
you
know
it's
really.
A
A
You
know,
kind
of
routine
kind
of
things
that
aren't
necessarily
Big
Time
investment.
So
one
one
suggestion
that
I
might
have
in
kind
of
thinking
about
how
we
structure
this
to
prioritize
and
indicate
might
be
rather
than
having
these
categories
of
policy
issues
and
habitat
restoration,
having
kind
of
a
priority
project
and
then
kind
of
you
know
continuing
a
routine
things.
A
You
know
we're
going
to
have
the
vegetation
management
plan
for
the
acres
and
Outreach
to
the
owners
as
an
ongoing
thing,
but
it's
not
something
that
takes
a
huge
investment
of
committee
members
time
and
then
we
can
have
another
bucket.
That
could
be
you
know,
kind
of
when
the
opportunity
arises.
There's
probably
a
better
category
name
for
that,
but
some
of
these
things,
like
General
plan
or
2030
climate
Action,
Plan
update.
A
A
So
we
could,
you
know,
have
that
as
a
separate
bucket
at
the
bottom,
so
we
don't
lose
sight
of
those
things
or
if
that
that
trigger
happens
in
that
year,
we
can
start
working
on
it,
but
I
think
that
might
help
to
really
kind
of
structure
this
in
a
way
that
gives
more
clarity
to
what
we're
actively
working
on
as
kind
of
our
priority
project.
So.
D
L
Oh
yeah
I
was
going
to
say
these
ones
that
Adrian
mentioned
climate
Action,
Plan,
update
and
general
plan
review
or
or
something
like
that.
Those
are
going
to
take
a
lot
of
time
if
they
come
up,
so
it
is
a
little
challenging
to
know.
We
can
do
these
four
things
in
the
next
12
months,
because
one
of
those
may
come
up
and
it
may
take
a
significant
amount
of
time.
L
Which
I'm
sorry
not
helping
getting
this
moving
this
forward,
but
I
think
yeah
there
are.
There
are
a
few.
You
know
big
meaty
things
that
the
committee
thinks
are
a
priority
and
maybe
that's
priority
projects
and
then
there's
like
Adrian
said
routine
and
then
there's
you
know
ad
hoc
as
they
come
up.
Ultimately,.
C
So
it's
a
constantly
shifting
environment
and
having
these
things
on
our
list,
it
doesn't
mean
that
we're
expected
to
accomplish
every
single
one
of
them
in
2023.
It
just
means
that
these
are
things
that
we
are
paying
attention
to,
that
we're
working
on
on
an
as
needed
time,
sensitive
basis
and
a
priority
basis.
B
I
I
I
tend
to
lean
toward
wanting
to
keep
stuff
on
the
list
so
that
we're
watching
it
but
I
like
the
idea
of
routine
steps,
special
projects
and
and
maybe
possibilities
that
we
have
to
look
out
for
eir
reviews
and
things
like
that.
If
maybe
Adrian
could
draft
something
and
show
it
in
this
meeting,
I
would
be
happy.
F
D
I
would
I
would
second
that
what
what
Glenn
just
said
I
would
absolutely
second
that
and
if
Adrian
had
the
time
for
that
to
be
awesome
but
and
to
Michelle's
point.
If,
if
ultimately,
we
work
for
city,
council
and
they're
telling
us
your
work
plan
is
too
big
and
we
should
listen
to
them
when
they
say
the
work
line
is
too
big,
and
maybe
we
put
an
active
column
on
the
top
and
a
little
bucket
at
the
bottom
and
say
yes,
this
is
something
we're
looking
at,
but
we're
not
actively
working
on
so.
G
A
A
I
guess,
let's
put
it
this
way,
if
you
have
any
additional
suggestions
in
that
regard,
maybe
send
them
to
me
in
the
next
month
or
so,
because
we
we
do
have
until
late
January
before
our
next
meeting.
So
we
will
have
a
little
bit
of
time
for
additional
comments
and
suggestions
and
I
will
put
this
forth
in
the
January
meeting
and
if
there's
anything
that
someone
suggests
that
didn't
get
kind
of,
you
know
multiple
recommendations
it
can.
A
L
L
Don't
think
that
they
look
at
it
through
the
lens
of
like
how
much
can
you
accomplish
in
12
months,
because
I
I
don't
think
that
they're
looking
at
what
else
staff
is
doing
and
how
much
time
committee
members
put
you
know
they're
as
policy
makers,
they're
kind
of
not
quantifying
stuff
that
way,
they're,
probably
looking
at
staff
to
say
well.
This
is
how
much
we
think
we
can
do
of
everything
on
this
list.
L
D
F
That's
my
sacred
cow
I've
been
trying
to
do
look
at
that
for
10
years
and
if
we
had
looked
at
it
somewhere
in
the
past
10
years,
we'd
probably
find
that
we
weren't
going
to
do
very
much,
but
until
we
can
actually
look
at
it,
I
am
not
willing
to
put
that
one
to
bed.
You
know
I
think
that
would
be
very
easy
to
put
to
bed,
but
it
needs
to
be
you
know.
For
me,
it
needs
to
be
just
looked
at
well.
D
A
So
I
will
I
will
say
this
is
one
that
I
wondered
if
it
could
be
cut
entirely,
because
the
state
has
passed
a
law
that
requires
any
of
these
devices
sold
starting
in
January
2024
to
be
electric.
So
it's
kind
of
like
if
we
don't
do
anything
in
the
next
year,
which
seems
unlikely,
given
our
other
priority
projects
or
things
that
I'm
assuming
are
higher
priority,
not
sure
what
exactly
we're
going
to
do
in
that
kind
of
time
frame.
But
you.
F
F
C
D
A
L
F
B
I
mean
is,
is
since
it
is
coming
down
the
pike.
Is
this
something
that,
like
the
people
that
program
the
the
sign
to
say
just
for
my
you
know,
once
a
month
they
put
up
a
thing
saying
just
just
to
remind
you.
If
your
leaf
blower,
you
know
if
your
gas
leaf
leaf
blower
has
died,
think
about
getting
an
electric
one,
yeah
yeah,
it.
H
C
L
C
H
C
C
L
Yeah
well,
I
mean
obviously
this
now
we
take
it
to
council
the
full
Council
to
get
approval,
but
this
is
the
first
draft
to
kind
of
get
it
somewhere,
so
that
staff
doesn't
bring
it,
and
the
committee
says
oh
I
wanted
something
completely
different.
What
did
staff
come
up
with
this?
Isn't
that's?
Why
we're
talking
about
it
this
month.
D
K
D
B
And
I,
second
that
as
well
I,
think
I
think
well,
we
can
look
at
kind
of
compartmentalizing
these
some
of
these
items
and
and
re-prioritizing
it,
and
then
we
can
bring
it
up
for
a
vote.
That's
that's
what
I'm
going
to,
but
I
I
also
will
not
vote
for
this
being
sent
to
the
to
the
city
council
system.
Okay,.
D
A
L
L
I
think
we're
going
to
do
that
off.
Okay
outside
of
the
meeting
you
know,
I
mean
I,
think
I
I
would
say.
I'm
getting
I
mean
for
what
we've
been
working
on,
that
you
guys
are
priority,
I
mean.
Obviously,
if
we
vote
it's
going
to
be
different
but
dark,
Scott,
sorry
well,
Dark
Skies
invasive
species.
Vegetation
management
is
like
an
every
year
and
trees.
C
L
L
D
L
A
C
M
E
D
L
H
A
Guys
are
seeing
slides
again
and
we
will
go
on
to
staff
updates.
I
pulled
mine
up
on
my
phone
while
everybody
was
talking,
I
had
to
close
all
my
other
windows,
so
my
first
one
was
just
a
reminder
for
headshots
I
think
I
got
most
of
them
in
so
we
can
update
the
image
and
the
slides
if
you
haven't
sent
it
yet
I
think
there's,
maybe
just
one
or
two
of
you
go
ahead
and
send
that
to
me.
I've
got
a
a
new
image
in
the
works.
A
A
An
update
from
the
natural
resources,
like
called
natural
resources,
coordinating
needing
I
know
this
will
be
of
interest
because
it
comes
up
all
the
time
the
county
mentioned
that
there
is
dubata
grass
treatment.
That
was
sounded
imminent,
and
this
meeting
was
I
think
almost
a
month
ago
now,
along
Radio
Road,
they
listed
off
a
few
other
locations.
A
I
didn't
get
them
all
into
my
notes,
possibly
wax
myrtle
Ravine
if
they're
able
to
get
to
it,
but
they
are
prioritizing
areas
that
are,
you
know
higher
or
more
in
the
wind,
and
then
they
also
are
doing
Oxalis
treatment
in
several
areas
in
the
December
to
February
time
frame,
plus
treatment.
Of
course,
retreatment,
I
think,
of
course,
in
the
saddle
area,
brain
treatment
of
phenol,
radish
and
broom,
and
then
Hannah
and
Evan
and
Joseph
Perry
reported
that
they
passed
along
taking
Levinson
as
a
mitigation
site.
A
A
I
went
to
look
into
it
a
little
further
after
the
fact,
and
it
turned
out
that
the
board
had
already
adopted
an
order
on
October
12th
on
the
issue
that
Dana
dilworth's
letter
was
addressing
so
I
reached
out
to
Glenn.
It
doesn't
seem
to
make
sense
for
us
to
move
forward
with
that
letter.
Considering
they've
already
made
a
decision
on
that
issue.
If
you
are
interested,
you
can
see
the
board
meeting
page
from
October
12th
on
their
website.
A
A
Can
do
that
I
would
share
it
in
the
chat
if
I
didn't
have
to
be
having
my
notes
on
the
on
the
phone
right
now,
so
I'll
send
it
after
the
fact,
and
then
I
did
have
one
last
one
that
I
had
a
slide.
For
a
few
weeks
ago,
I
went
to
sustainable
San,
Mateo
County
2022
indicators
report
meeting
at
Genentech,
they
were
focused
on
building
electrification,
had
some
really
great
speakers.
A
If
you're
interested
in
checking
that
out,
you
can
see
the
the
link
there
on
the
screen
to
access
that
report.
They've
got
a
really
good,
12
20,
something
like
that
page
Focus,
just
on
building
electric
electrification
specifically
and
then
a
whole
bunch
of
other
metrics
on
sustainability
issues
across
the
county
and
I.
Think
everything
else
on
my
list
is
for
submitty
item.
M
Only
so
Adrian
and
I
are
prepping,
some
Outreach
materials
for
that,
and
then
updating
our
web
page
and
then
also
preparing
on
the
compliance
side
what
our
processes
are
going
to
look
like,
and
then
we
do
still
have
two
lingering
building
two
have
not
submitted
anything
for
this
last
cycle,
so
Adrian
sent
out
our
third
round
of
citations.
Yesterday.
B
A
A
B
B
H
Like
I'm,
not
sure
I
understand
the
analogy
you're
trying
to
draw
there
what
we
do
is
we
have
a
Processing
Company
that
we
ask
them
to
go
after
and
collect
each
and
every
citation
we've
issued
some
of
the
occurrence
of
a
company.
That's
on
their
third
violation.
They've
received
a
citation
for
100,
200
and
now
they're
on
500
will
continue
to
issue
those
if
they
don't
comply.
Those
with
that
we
will
eventually
put
a
lien
on
the
property.
F
A
A
A
It
turns
out
that
Earth
Day,
April
22nd,
is
in
fact
on
Saturday
next
year.
There
will
probably
be
a
good
amount
of
competition
for
events
that
day,
but
it
seems
like
it
would
make
the
most
sense
for
us
to
have
our
event
on
birthday,
since
it's
an
Earth
Day
event
assuming
that
works
for
Ariel,
I
I've
not
heard
back
from
him,
but
I
just
emailed
them
today
about
that.
C
I
am
so
excited
that
the
city,
the
council
approved
the
six
acres
or
six
Parcels
to
be
included
in
the
priority
preservation
area
and
personally
I'm
working
on
a
parcel
with
a
landowner
to
try
and
get
that
dedicated
and
at
this
point,
I
think
that
we
should
review
the
open
space
plan
and
see
the
next
area
that
we
want
to
work
on.
So
maybe
in
the
spring
we'll
schedule
a
meeting
to
review
the
open
overhaul
open
space
plan.
Not
just
the
Acres
you'll
see
the
next
area
that
we
should
focus
on.
L
L
C
D
M
D
D
D
D
A
D
C
D
G
L
We
talked
about
that
at
the
last
meeting
and
I
guess
we
are
at
the
point
to
try
to
well
I.
You
know
what
I
am
still
Gathering,
what
it's
going
to
cost
to
do,
City
properties
and
then
I
guess
we
should
meet
again
to
kind
of
talk
about
what
we
want
to
recommend
in
terms
of
City
versus
private.
We
talked
about
a
couple
of
options:
City
versus
private
being
on
different
schedule
or
bigger
and
smaller
being
on
a
different
schedule.
F
I've
been
meeting
with
staff,
we're
gonna,
they
I
think
they
decided
they
would
kind
of
look
through
with
figure
out
with
me,
so
it
was
impossible
and
what
they
wanted
to
move
forward
with
us
and
come
back
with
some
feedback
and
then
we'd
go
back
to
the
table.
So
I
think
we're
waiting
on
staff
yeah.
C
B
K
A
A
I
So
Adrian's
speaking
about
that
I,
don't
know
what
is
wrong
with
this
computer
and
I,
don't
know
how
soon
it
can
I
can
get
it
fixed
and
it's
all
dialed
in
so
that
I
can
get
into
my
Brisbane
City
email
I
may
be
on
the
phone
for
the
climate
action
plan
set
committee
meeting
on
Wednesday
or
on
Monday
sorry,
so
I'm
going
to
ask.
If
you
would
please
send
me
the
zoom
in
link
to
my
gmail
address
I
will
work
on
this
and
try
to
fix
it.
I
A
K
D
L
We
have
not
met,
but
we've
made
some
good
small
steps
getting
the
handout
for
a
day
in
the
park.
I
know
that
was
last
month.
Early
last
month,
some
of
the
street
trees
in
town
that
were
removed
are
getting
replaced
two
at
a
time
they're
getting
ordered
and
getting
and
I'm
getting
updates
from
maintenance
staff
about
those
getting
those
coordinated.
L
We're
we're
continuing
with
with
deep
root
watering
watching
the
weather,
they've
agreed
to
go,
look
on
not
the
main
streets
and
go
up
the
residential
streets
in
central
Brisbane
over
the
past
few
weeks
in
water
once
that
they
observe
to
be
in
distress.
We
put
an
article
in
the
blast
right
about
water,
your
tree,
if
it's
in
distress
you
know
and
maintain
your
tree,
so
taking
those
little
steps,
I,
don't
know.
If
committee
members
have
thoughts
about,
obviously
I'm
sure
you
guys
want
to
meet
and
like
talk
about
the
bigger
picture.
B
L
L
There
might
have
to
look
at
my
notes,
three
or
four
feet
tall
and
I
it.
You
know
I
check
in
with
him
every
two
weeks
and
I'm
looking
Karen
I'm
contacting
people,
Brokers
nurseries
and
I'm,
using
my
resources
that
are
tree
people
and
I.
Finally,
we
finally
came
up
with
I
was
like
plant
them
small
and
protect
them
or
bring
them
to
the
courtyard
and
grow
them
to
a
reasonable
height
to
plant
them.
Get
us
these
three
trees,
even
if
they
are
three
feet.
Tall,
no
yeah.
C
C
B
L
Contact
Michelle
had
only
had
Douglas
fir
that
was
15
feet
tall,
even
if
he
had
the
equipment
to
dig
it
up,
he
did
not
recommend
it.
He
felt
that
it
would
not
do
well
if
it
were
to
be
dug
up
and
replanted,
they
do
better
container
ground
and
then
planted.
He
also
said
purchasing
one
that
is
bald
in
burlap
would
be
okay,.
