Coverage of the November 30, 2021 Cupertino City Council Teleconference Meeting.
(Live Streamed Version)
A
D
B
I'm
here,
thank
you
very
much,
madam
city
clerk,
and
we
will
go
on
to
the
next
item
in
our
agenda.
Tonight's
agenda
has
both
an
open
session
item
as
well
as
a
closed
session
component
with
multiple
items
we'll
be
taking
on
the
open
session
item.
First,
the
subject
is
consider
adopting
a
resolution
authorizing
continued
remote
teleconference
meetings
of
the
legislative
bodies
of
the
city
of
cupertino
for
the
period
november
30th
2021
through
december
30th
2021.
Pursuant
to
the
brown
act
as
amended
by
ab361
madam
city
clerk,
do
you
have
a
do?
C
Mayor
yes,
just
quickly
under
new
law
ab
361,
also
government
code
54953,
which
is
noted
on
our
detailed
on
our
agendas,
the
city,
council
and
other
city
legislative
bodies
may
continue
meeting
exclusively
via
teleconference.
So
long
as
a
state,
emergency
declaration
remains
in
place
and
the
statutes
conditions
for
permitting
remote
meetings
are
met.
Council
must
find
that
state
or
local
officials
have
imposed
or
recommended
measures
to
support
social
distancing
or
that
the
state
of
emergency
continues
to
directly
impact
the
ability
of
the
members
to
meet
safely
in
person.
C
That
determination
must
be
reviewed.
Every
30
days
thereafter,
council
adopted
resolutions
affirming
these
findings
on
october
5th
and
november
2nd
to
allow
teleconference
meetings
to
continue.
The
county's
health
officer
continues
to
recommend
that
governmental
entities
limit
indoor
activities
to
protect
participants
who
are
not
fully
vaccinated
and
state
department
of
industrial
relations.
Emergency
temporary
standards
continue
to
require
or
recommend
social
distancing.
B
Okay,
thank
you,
madam
city
clerk
and
I'll
note
for
the
record
that
vice
mayor
chao
has
joined
her
meeting
in
602,
and
I
ask
that
you
also
note
that
on
the
record-
and
I
will
go
on
to
our
member
of
the
public
with
a
hand
raised
at
this
time,
and
so
if
there
are
any
questions
or
comments
of
the
presentation
or
from
council,
please
reserve
that
and
tell
our
member
of
the
public
has
spoken.
Welcome.
B
E
B
B
E
F
I'm
not
sure
if
the
questions
are
better
now
or
after
the
the
couple
questions
would
be.
Do
we
have
a
current
expectation
ballpark
for
when
we
might
be
back
in
person?
So
that's
question
number
one
question
number
two,
you
know:
is
it
going
to
be
possible
to
have
a
dual
meeting
where
we
are
in
person
at
community
hall,
but
there
is
still
the
zoom
feature,
because
there
will
be
limited
seating
and
spaces
in
community
hall
and
so
that
you
know
it's
called
a
hybrid.
F
G
The
city
managers
group
hears
about
every
other
week
from
the
county
on
where
they
think
the
path
is
of
the
pandemic
and
I'll
tell
you
from
the
last
meeting.
I
don't
think
the
mask
mandate
will
be
lifted
anytime
before
february,
in
terms
of
being
legally
required
to
wear
a
mask
indoors
unless
you're
eating
drinking
or
have
a
health
exception
or
are
in
a
private
office.
So
the
mask
mandate,
I
believe,
is
going
to
be
continuing
for
a
while,
and
then
you
have
the
new
variant
coming
in
and
the
holidays.
G
So
I
know
there's
some
trepidation.
We
could
see
a
worsening
of
circumstance
come
the
new
year
rather
than
a
veteran
and
that's
what
we
have
to
watch
staff
could
move
to
a
hybrid
model
when
the
council
wants.
I
think
we'd
want
a
couple
weeks
to
do
some
thorough
testing
to
make
sure
it
works
or
a
dual
model.
As
the
council
member
called
it.
G
The
feedback
I
got
from
council
before
is
that
there
was
no
interest
in
wearing
masks
while
on
camera,
and
even
at
this
meeting
right
now
for
the
public
portion
was
in
community
hall,
you
would
all
have
to
be
wearing
masks
while
you're
on
camera.
If
you
were
all
together
in
community,
all
the
only
exception
is
to
remove
your
mask
while
you
take
a
sip
of
water
or
or
or
something
like
that,
I
heard
previously
from
council
that
there
wasn't
much
interest
in
wearing
masks
on
camera.
G
It's
obviously
up
to
the
council
to
decide
and
I
believe
the
mayor's
the
authority
has
been
delegated
to
the
mayor.
Regarding
that,
so
my
suggestion
would
be
wait
and
see
what
early
january
mid-january
is
like
and
decide
if
you
want
to
give
it
a
try
in
late
january,
with
mass
or
wait
and
see
if
mass
will
be
gone
in
february,
and
then
you
can
go
to
the
dual
model.
I'll
turn
to
chris
to
comment.
D
Yeah,
so
personally,
of
course,
I
prefer
to
meet
virtually
where
it's
just
too
easy
to
walk
into
the
room
from
the
comfort
of
a
home
or
office.
However,
our
children
are
attending
schools
daily,
wearing
masks
for
hours
and
under
whatever
variant.
There
are-
and
I
do
miss
that
when
the
public
is
able
to
attend
the
meeting
in
person,
not
only
they
can
see
us,
but
also
they
can
see
each
other
communicate
with
each
other,
not
just
watching
a
meeting.
So
there
is
something
that
we
have
missed.
D
I
think
the
public
have
missed
to
be
able
to
connect
with
each
other
since
early
last
year,
and
so
I
would
like
to
know
what
other
cities
have,
because
I
do
know,
there
are
also
meetings
and
school
board
meetings
that
come
back
to
the
in
hybrid
mode,
where
the
the
board
or
city
council
are
in
person,
and
some
public
member
will
be
allowed
in
with
certain
conditions,
such
as
vaccinated
mandate,
and
there
is
capacity
limit.
So
I
would
like
to
know
what
other
cities
are
already
providing
hybrid.
D
G
C
D
Oh
sorry,
there
was
a
concern
I
think
someone
raised
is.
If
the
city
council
decides
to
go
hybrid,
all
the
other
commissions
do
have
to
go
hybrid.
Is
that
a
requirement
because
then
there
might
be
a
feasibility
issue
if
we
have
need
all
the
commissions
to
also
mean
in
hybrid
mode
too?
Is
that
a
requirement?
Oh?
Can
we
just
do
only
console
making.
C
But
so
my
experience
and
I
do
have
the
city
clerks
periodically
emailing
one
another
checking
in
to
see
what
the
status
is
for
other
cities
and
some
are
only
are
limiting
in-person
meetings
to
or
rather
teleconference,
meetings
to
the
council.
I
and
the
city
attorney
can
correct
me
here.
I
don't
believe
that
I
think
it
ab361
allows
the
council
and
other
wages
legislative
bodies
such
as
city
commissions,
but
it's
not
a
requirement
to
have
one.
E
D
H
Yeah,
so
you
know
it
would
be,
it
would
be
possible
to
make
the
findings
in
ab361
in
a
way
that
they
would
apply
differently
to
subsidiary
boards
and
commissions
and
to
the
council.
It's
kind
of
a
fine
line
to
walk
because,
on
the
one
hand,
you're
saying
it's
safe
enough
for
the
council
to
meet
in
person,
but
not
safe
enough
to
for
for
other
bodies
to
meet
in
person.
H
H
G
B
B
B
D
E
B
B
Okay,
great
it's
6
16
right
now,
I'm
gonna
go
ahead
and
adjourn
the
open
portion
of
our
of
our
meeting
tonight
and
we'll
go
ahead
and
reconvene
under
the
link
that
you
should
have
here
in
your
email
inbox.
It's
also
on
the
agenda
itself,
but
probably
the
more
convenient
way
to
access
it
is
is
through
your
email,
because
I
can
hyperlink
directly
back
into
this.
So.
A
So
yes,
yes,
indeed,
we
met
with
all
the
neighbors
here
we
we
know
them
all.
Anybody
who
would
answer
the
door,
I
think
was
every
I
think
was
100
action
that
we
talked
to
and
then
chad
followed
up
and
did
it
too,
and
so
that's
the
key
to
a
project
like
this
by
the
way
is
to
make
it
here's.
Here's
a
neighbor
here
is
to
make
it
so
that
it's
not
a
pain
for
the
city
council.
A
You
know
I
sat
up
there
for
eight
years
with
these
long
meetings
going
to
two
three
four
in
the
morning
as
liang
chao
and
john
is,
is
doing
now
and
hung,
and
the
best
thing
is
if
the
neighbors
like
it
too,
because
the
the
hardest
thing
for
a
council
member
is
to
resolve
the
interest
of
the
immediate
neighbors
to
the
interests
of
the
community.
It's
clear
that
the
interest
of
the
community
is
to
have
trails
like
these,
the
immediate
neighbors,
not
so
clear.
A
You
know
they're
losing
some
something
that
they
used
to
have,
and
so
what
we
did
with
the
help
of
the
city
council
in
the
city
and
chad
and
the
rest
of
public
works.
Is
we
addressed
the
need
of
every
neighbor
here,
so
one
neighbor
needed
this
kind
of
fence
the
the
ramages
who
own
a
big
strip
of
this
needed
a
new
fence.
They
had
four
old
raggedy
fences
in
a
row.
