Coverage of the Cupertino City Council Teleconference Meeting, recorded on Tuesday, February 15, 2021. Part 1 of 2.
A
Good
evening-
and
this
is
february
15
2022.-
this
is
a
special
meeting
of
the
cupertino
city
council.
It
is
5
30
pm
and
we
are
holding
this
special
meeting
as
a
workshop
prior
to
our
regularly
scheduled
meeting
at
6
45
pm
this
evening.
Our
city
clerk
is
logging
in
online
right
now
and
so
I'll
go
ahead
and
conduct
our
roll
call.

A
Council
member
way
here,
council,
member
willie
here
vice
mayor
ciao
here
and
I'm
here,
I'm
mayor
paul
and
so
on
our
special
meeting
agenda.
For
this
evening.
We
only
have
one
item.
It
is
a
workshop
on
committees
and
commissions
and
I
believe
that
katie
namura,
our
deputy
city
manager,
is
here
to
provide
the
staff
presentation.
C
Thank
you
good
evening,
honorable
mayor
and
council
members,
I'm
here
to
present
the
commissions
and
committees
presentation
I'm
going
to
share
my
screen.
Can
everyone
see
that.
C
C
C
When
you
look
at
commissions
only
worth
we
come
in
third,
but
we
tie
for
a
third
with
three
with
two
other
cities
and
then
in
committees
become
in
second,
and
this
does
not
include
ad
hoc
committees,
and
so
some
of
the
kind
of
study
issues
we
have
for
this
evening
are
to
talk
about
membership
requirements.
Generally
speaking,
we
do
have
a
residency
requirement
for
our
members
of
our
commissions.
However,
planning
commission
and
tick
specify
that
they
must
be
a
qualified
elector,
which
is
different
than
the
other
commissions.
C
C
Traffic
and
transportation,
three
other
cities
have
complete
streets
commissions,
five
have
bike,
ped
commissions,
three
have
other
transportation
related
commissions.
The
council
did
consider
expanding
the
bike
pet
commission
to
a
complete
streets
commission
in
june
of
2020
that
did
not
pass
and
now
we're
coming
back
to
ask
the
council.
Would
you
like
to
pursue
a
transportation
commission,
complete
streets
commission
or
continue,
as
is
with
the
biped
commission?
C
Just
have
further
direction
from
council
on
that
bikepad
does
currently
consider
multiple
modes
of
transportation
to
consider
options
holistically
as
if
they
were
a
complete
streets
commission
for
housing.
It
has
been
brought
up
that
perhaps
it's
desirable
to
the
council
to
expand
the
scope
to
include
social
services.
One
note
we
do
have
is
that
the
county
provides
social
services
for
our
community.
C
There
is,
however,
a
human
services
grant
funding
program
that
the
city
does
administer,
and
the
housing
commission
does
make
recommendations
to
that
program
and
does
support
that
program,
so
that
is
part
of
their
existing
functions
to
expand
beyond
this
grant
funding
program
and
to
get
into
other
social
services,
it
would
require
significant
resources
and
staff
time,
and
so
we
are
looking
to
the
council
for
further
direction
regarding
if
they
would
like
us
to
pursue
anything
different
with
the
housing
commission
senior
services.
C
Six
of
other
six
other
cities
have
a
senior
commission.
Cupertino
did
used
to
have
a
senior
commission.
However,
it
was
dissolved
in
2009
due
to
overlapping
functions
of
the
senior
advisory
council,
and
it
was
revisited
in
november,
2018
and
council
decided
to
continue
the
partnership
with
the
senior
advisory
council
with
updates
to
the
parks
and
rec
commission.
C
C
C
This
item
has
made
a
lot
of
progress
and
they
are
actually
recommending
due
to
increased
workload
for
the
audit
committee
due
to
the
internal
audit
function,
they're,
actually
considering
converting
almost
the
fiscal
strategic
plan
committee
to
a
finance
committee,
and
it
would
have
the
following
functions:
you'll
notice
that
three
of
those
functions
b,
c
and
d
would
be
transferred
from
the
audit
committee.
This
is
in
an
effort
to
balance
workload
right
now.
C
The
audit
committee
has
quite
a
lot
to
go
through
and
this
might
help,
given
that
currently
fiscal
strategic
planning
committee
doesn't
meet
as
often
so
maybe
there
could
be
some
balancing
there.
So
we
are
interested
in
any
council
feedback
on
this,
so
their
functions
are
proposed
to
be
review.
Monthly
report
of
receipts,
disperse
disbursements
and
fund
balances,
quarterly
treasures,
investments,
reports,
review,
budget
format,
review
city
investment
policies,
the
annual
fee
schedule
update
and
the
annual
fiscal
forecast
update.
So
this
is
being
prepared.
C
One
of
them
was
to
roll
the
environmental
review
duties
into
the
planning
commission,
so
you
could
either
dissolve
the
erc
or
change
the
scope.
The
purpose
of
that
would
be
to
try
and
reduce
any
perception
of
hindrance
on
due
process,
but
as
if
you
have
questions
on
that,
our
city
attorney
can
speak
to
it.
Another
idea
was
to
expand
the
scope
to
act
in
an
advocacy
capacity
and
provide
education
and
engagement
regarding
environmental
review
concerns
and
secret
issues,
and
to
be
more
of
an
engagement
and
education
piece
and
you
could.
C
There
was
another
suggestion
to
change
the
composition
of
the
erc
to
address
the
potential
perceived
conflict
division,
conflict
issues,
so
that
could
be
removing
staff
from
the
erc,
not
that
it's
really
a
conflict
of
interest,
but
it
does
create
an
awkward
situation
where
staff
is
preparing
a
recommendation
and
then
they're
also
on
the
erc
as
a
voting
member.
C
So
perhaps
limiting
removing
staff
as
actual
members
and
really
just
supporting
roles
and
then
also
whether
or
not
to
have
the
composition,
be
strictly
a
subcommittee
of
the
council,
so
two
council
members,
or
whether
to
have
it,
perhaps
a
subcommittee
of
the
planning
commission
where
they
would
have
two
planning
commissioners,
but
right
now,
as
mentioned
in
the
staff,
they
just
need
to
be
careful
not
to
have
any
kind
of
preconceived
notion
of
what
their
merits
are
of
the
project
and
so
we're
looking
for
direction
from
the
council
on
this
piece.
C
The
impact
of
adding
commissions
there
is
staff
time
involved,
here's
a
kind
of
a
sampling
of
other
the
existing
commissions
and
committees
and
how
much
staff
time
is
involved.
Additionally,
the
clerk's
office
spends
over
100
hours
on
orientations,
trainings
agendas
and
noticing.
C
C
I
suppose
it
could
also
be
traffic
commission,
complete
streets,
commission
or
continue,
as
is
with
biped,
does
council
have
further
direction
regarding
the
housing
commission
and
what
approach
would
the
council
like
to
take
with
the
erc
and
with
that?
That
concludes
the
presentation
we
can
I'm
here
for
any
questions.
A
Oh,
thank
you
very
much,
so
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
open
this
up
to
members
of
the
public
right
now
that
have
comments.
I
see
that
our
first
member
of
the
public
with
a
hand
raised
is
jenny's,
galaxy
tab
and
so
I'll
remind
our
members
of
the
public
that
you'll
have
three
minutes
to
speak.
Please
have
your
hand
raised
by
the
time
that
the
first
speaker
is
completed
speaking
and
if
you
do,
I
will
call
on
you
for
public
comment
on
this
item
and
so
jenny.
Please
feel
free
to
begin.
E
Thank
you,
mayor
darcy.
Can
you
all
hear
me.
E
Okay,
yeah
my
galaxy
tab
just
down
edited
that
download
and
change
my
name:
okay,
well,
the
fun
with
zoom
anyway.
I
think
that
was
a
really
good
discussion
about
our
current
committees
and
I
think
at
this
point
my
main
concern
is
that
we
just
leave
the
erc
and
the
drc
alone.
I
really
wouldn't
want
them
folded
into
the
planning.
Commission.
E
We've
had
erc
and
drc
since
I've
been
coming
to
the
city
meetings,
which
was
2001
after
we
annexed,
and
they
have
done
a
lot
of
good
work
over
the
years
we
haven't
had
as
many
meetings
now,
but
there
have
been
many
many
meetings
in
the
past
I
mean
what
it
was
looking
back
21
years,
so
they
may
be
unique
to
cupertino,
but
to
me,
with
the
advent
of
sb9
sb10,
the
housing
bills,
people
trying
to
get
rid
of
environmental
issues
seqa.
I
really
think
the
erc
and
the
drc
are
very,
very
important.
E
A
F
F
F
F
F
G
Hi,
can
you
hear
me.
G
Good
evening,
mayor
and
the
council
and
city
management,
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
speak,
I'm
speaking
here
in
person
in
as
a
as
a
housing.
Commissioner,
I
wanted
to
figure
out
whether
it's
possible
for
the
housing
commission
to
also
have
responsibility
in
terms
of
reviewing
some
of
the
house
picks
which
are
coming
with
eli
and
vli
housing
units
we
we
are
unable
to
be
effective
in
terms
of
advising
the
council
or
the
planning
commission
in
terms
of
eli
and
vli
production.
G
So
I
would
like
you
to
come
whether
it's
possible
for
us
to
get
a
chance
to
review
the
new
housing
projects
which
are
coming
up
only
the
housing
projects,
especially
in
terms
of
eli
and
vla
production.
That's
pretty
much
what
I
wanted
to
say.
Thank
you.
Bye.
H
Hello,
thank
you.
So
I
would
like
to
agree
with
the
previous
speaker
that
keeping
drc
in
erc
is
really
important
is
only
going
to
become
more
important.
As
was
stated,
drc
was
used
in
years
past
very
effectively.
In
my
opinion,
I
attended
several
of
them.
I
have
so
concerned
recently
that
they
don't
get
enough
put
onto
agendas
and
have
enough
meetings.
H
I
think
there's
things
that
should
be
addressed
by
them
than
being
the
drc,
and
I
also
think
both
those
committees
should
actually
have
some
residents
at
large
involved
on
a
regular
basis,
not
just
people
that
pop
in,
I
think
that's
worth
considering,
and
I
I
just
want
to
point
out
beyond
that
that
I'm
not
agreeing
with
another
previous
speaker.
H
It
seemed
like
some
of
the
comments,
and
maybe
I
misinterpreted
them,
but
some
of
the
comments
made
it
sound
like
it
doesn't
matter
if
there's
committees
and
commissions
that
are
valuable
to
some
residents,
it's
it's.
You
know
I.
I
may
find
some
committees
and
commissions
not
as
valuable
as
others,
but
that
doesn't
mean
there's
not
other
people
in
the
community
that
find
them
more
important
than
the
ones
I
do.
H
So
I
I
just
didn't
like
the
tone,
I
guess
in
the
speaker
comments.
So
please
keep
drc
and
erc
I'm
that
I
have
more
comments,
but
really
that's
that's
it.
Thank
you.
I
Good
evening,
council
and
staff
a
couple
things,
I
agree
that
the
erc
and
the
drc
should
be
kept.
I
think
that
removing
staff
from
the
erc
is
an
excellent
idea.
I
The
creating
a
physical
strategic
plan
committee,
I
think
that
the
audit
committee
is
doing
a
great
job,
but
they
need
to
meet
every
month
and
have
the
regular
monthly
reports
that
they're
supposed
to
receive
and
review
be
given
to
them
so
that
they
can
review
an
audit
committee
is
an
audit,
and
that
way
you
don't
have
any
issue
of
who
covers
what
and
if
you
took
it
to
another
committee.
I
I
The
erc,
I
said,
remove
staff
planning,
I
think,
still
needs
to
be
a
citizen.
If
you're
talking
land
use,
you
need
to
be
a
citizen.
My
concern
with
there
was
a
mention
of
transportation.
I
There
is
the
bike
pad
commission
and
we
do
have
transportation
for
cars,
but
we
also
have
safer
outs
to
school.
That
does
a
lot
of
the
stuff
that
bike
ped
does
and
it
doesn't
feed
into
bike
pad.
So
maybe
safe
routes
to
school
should
be
considered
a
committee
and
feed
into
bike
pad
so
that
you
get
some
kind
of
overlap
and
review
and
public
comment
with
transportation.
I
If
you
want
someone
focused
on
roads,
maybe
it
should
be
a
committee
of-
or
maybe
I
don't
know
anyway,
too
many
committees,
then
you
start
having
or
commissions
you
start
having
whose
territory
is
it
and
that's
my
concern,
particularly
with
the
example
of
bike
pad
and
safe
routes
to
school.
I
Anyway,
that's
and
I
appreciate
the
report,
and
I
appreciate
the
council
for
reviewing
this
and
looking
at
it.
Thank
you.
A
Great
thanks
very
much
peggy,
and
that
is
the
end
of
our
public
speakers
on
this
item,
and
so,
let's
bring
it
back
to
council.
I
think
that
the
best
structure
here
would
be
to
have
a
have
a
discussion
so
with
a
time
check
it's
5
50
right
now,
so
I
think
it
would
be
best
if
we
try
to
wrap
this
into
45
minutes,
including
any
direction
and
follow
up
with
the
motion
that
we
provide
to
staff
here.
A
So
I'd
be
happy
to
kick
us
off
in
the
absence
of
hands.
So
far
I'm
gonna
go
ahead
and
you
know
just
just
make
a
couple
of
requests.
I
wanted
to
see
us
have
a
charter
for
our
economic
development
committee,
so
I
don't
think
that
it's
really
necessary
to
do
any
more
follow-up
on
it.
I
think
we
should
just
get
you
know
description
of
the
activity
done.
I
think
we
should
have
a
couple
of
people
from
council.
A
A
You
know
I
was
thinking
that
perhaps
it
made
sense
to
make
it
two
members
of
council,
one
member
of
planning
and
a
couple
of
members
of
the
staff,
but
if
staff
itself
is
saying
that
it
would
be
advisable
not
to
you
know
be
on
the
committee
itself,
then
I
think
we
could
reform
it.
It's
already
under
the
municipal
code
with
two
members
of
council,
a
member
of
planning.
A
A
I
do
agree
with
the
member
of
the
public,
who
stated
that
you
know
just
have
audit
committee
do
what
it's
supposed
to
do
and
that's
already
described
so
I
I
don't
see
that
we
need
to
break
it
out.
I'm
on
the
audit
committee.
I've
been
on
the
audit
committee
for
multiple
years
in
the
past
and
I
think
that
that
would
be
certainly
the
proper
thing
to
do.
A
I
do
want
to
speak
to
one
comment
from
a
member
of
the
public
with
regard
to
the
legislative
review
committee.
I
completely
disagree
with
the
idea
that
the
work
has
gone
to
waste.
I
I
think
in
fact,
that
it's
probably
some
of
the
finest
work
coming
out
of
this
community
and
you
actually
have
people
you
know
considering
substantive
issues.
It
is
a
lot
of
work,
but
it
also
makes
it
clear
that
we
are
doing
our
jobs,
we're
doing
our
diligence
and,
if
you're
not
looking
for
a
rubber
stamp
kind
of
representation.
A
In
my
opinion-
and
in
my
you
know,
seven
plus
years
of
elected
office
and
from
everything
I've
seen
and
done,
I
think
it's
the
finest
example
that
we
have
in
cupertino
that
our
elected
officials
are
doing
their
work,
so
I'll
go
ahead
and
bring
this
over
to
other
council
members
at
this
time,
and
so
I'll
go
through
a
round
of
comments
or
questions
and
then
bring
it
back.
A
J
Okay,
yeah,
first
of
all,
any
number
of
hours
spent
on
working
with
the
commission
are
the
hours
and
engaging
the
community
who
is
the
boss
of
the
council,
so
those
hours
are
the
most
essential
hours
that
the
staff
spend
to
find
out
what
the
community
wants.
If
anyone
has
any
idea
thinking
that
this
is
a
waste
I
have.
I
doubt
that
what's
there
who
are
they
working
for?
We
are
working
for
the
residents
and
these
commission
members
volunteer
their
time
to
help
us
to
engage
them
so
that
we
don't
have
to
scramble.
We
have.
J
We
have
a
new
project,
so
we
have
a
continued
engagement
and
these
are
essential
to
the
city
for
as
for
for
housing,
commission,
it
has
been
very
underutilized,
and
I
think
I
did
propose
that
they
could
expand
to
also
include
social
services.
The
reason
is
specifically
because
we
don't
do
social
services,
we
rely
on
the
county,
but
how
would
the
residents
know
where
to
get
the
resource
when
the
city
doesn't
even
do
that?
Then?
J
If
housing
commission
also
does
that
that
will
be
a
window
for
the
citizens
to
find
out
what
services
are
there
provided
by
either
the
county
or
the
numerous
number
of
nonprofits.
So
this
is
a
place.
People
can
come
and
say
I
have
this
issue.
I
have
this
mental
problem.
I
have
this
federal
members
who
need
help.
How
do
I
get
it?
If
we
don't
have
that
right
now,
they
don't
have
a
place
where
they
can
even
go
in
the
city.
J
So
that's
why
I
think
housing
and
social
services
commission
provide
that
place
where
people
can
come
and
ask
for
help,
and
then
I
would
also
like
to
seek
library
to
also
consider
adding
specifically
community
engagement,
because
with
every
project
we
keep
saying
how
come
we
are
not
reaching
out.
How
can
we
didn't
get
enough
people
if
we
have
a
commission,
but
then
we
are
doing
ad
hoc
with
every
project?
Every
project
starts
from
scratch
to
design
a
plan.
So
why
don't?
J
J
Transportation,
I
think
that
should
be
merged
with
planning.
Commission,
palo
alto
has
planning
and
transportation.
I
think
mountain
view.
Also
it's
it's
not
suitable
with
bike
and
pad
it's
a
conflict
of
interest,
in
fact,
and
also
transportation
include
the
mass
transit
to
light
rail.
Those
are
not
within
the
purview
of
backpack
and
for
finance.
J
I
see
audit
financial
and
strategy
and
economic
development.
Three
things
have
overlapping
functions.
I
I
just
spoke
to
a
paula,
octo
council
member.
They
have
a
long-term
budget
and
and
five
year
of
cip
plan,
including
an
idea
of
how
much
they
can
pay
for
this
project.
J
We
right
now
the
city
doesn't
have
anyone
who
is
doing
that.
Every
year
we
are
presented
with
one
year,
cip
plan.
We
have
no
idea
what
would
be
the
project
coming
for
next,
two
three
five
years
and
what's
our
budget?
Can
we
afford
those,
and
I
think
we
really
need
someone
who
does
the
long-term
planning.
J
So
therefore,
I
I
envision
the
the
financial
strategy,
or
maybe
finance
committee-
would
do
not
only
would
do
all
this
long-term
planning
and
then,
when
I
asked
about
economic
development,
the
council
order
council
member
told
me
that
was
under
finance
committee,
because
economic
development
is
basically
just
to
make
sure
the
city
has
a
good
good,
long-term
financial
future,
so
those
two
actually
should
be
combined
and
and
and
then
this
their
finance
committee
also
review.
J
For
example,
if
council
works
down
transient
occupancy
tax
business
tax,
the
finance
committee
work
out
the
details.
If
the
council
directed
to
do
anything
related,
including
utility
fees,
anything
that
generally
revenue
for
the
council
is
the
finance
committee
advised
the
council
on
that.
So
that's
something!
I
hope
that
we
consider
maybe
a
split
of
function
between
two
communities.
That's
focused
on
finance,
not
three,
but
then
we
you
do
need
to
include
long-term
financial
planning
in
there.
Thank
you.
B
Okay,
thank
you
mayor
paul.
I
do
agree
with
putting
transportation
with
the
planning
commission
with
regards
to
the
environmental
review
committee,
the
staff
report
kind
of
misrepresents
what
went
on
in
in
the
meeting
where
the
the
role
of
the
erc
was
discussed.
So
I
was
advocating
as
a
as
a
member
of
the
city
council,
advocating
for
an
increased
scope
and
role
for
for
the
erc,
whereas
the
staff
members
were
looking
to
either
either
dissolve
it
or
remove
the
staff
members
off
of
it.
B
So
I
want
to
clarify
that,
and
with
regards
to
increasing
the
scope,
it
was
so
that
we
could
look
at
issues
such
as
lehigh
or
if
there
were
large
developments
outside
of
the
city.
That
would
impact
our
residents
that
we
would
be
able
to
do
that
as
well,
and
I
do
think
it
does
have
a
very
important
mission
and
reviewing.
The
initial
study
gives
the
public
the
first
chance
to
comment
on
it
when
those
environmental
documents
are
are
being
initiated
and
that's
the
right
time
for
the
public
to
start
getting
involved.
B
With
regards
to
the
fiscal
strategic
plan
committee,
I'm
a
little
surprised
that
staff
is
planning
to
make
changes
to
the
audit
committee.
I
completely
disagree
with
this.
I
don't
understand
how
they
were
tasked
with
that
at
this
point,
the
audit
committee
itself
was
not
informed
about
this,
so
I'm
very
bothered
with
it
and
the
the
items
in
that
item
a
for
instance
that
that
would
be
taken
away
from
the
audit
committee
review,
the
monthly
reports
of
receipts
disbursements
and
fund
balances.
The
audit
committee
has
been
asking
for
it.
B
One
of
the
problems
with
the
audit
committee
is
that
they
have
not
meetings
have
not
been
meeting
as
often
as
they
should,
and
I
don't
think
that
we
should
split
into
three
different
committees
for
studying
having
the
fiscal
strategic
plan
committee,
the
audit
committee
and
then
also
the
economic
development
committee,
which
I
totally
agree,
needs
to
have
needs
to
be
codified
and
and
and
work
out
what
we're
going
to
be
using
that
committee.
For
so
I
think
I'll
leave
it
with
that.
B
So
I
don't.
I
would.
I
do
want
to
see
the
the
fiscal
the
fiscal
strategic
plan
committee
dissolved
and
not
take
away
from
the
audit
committee.
Thank
you.
D
Yeah,
I'm
kind
of
glad
that
we
have
this
to
discuss
tonight.
I
think
the
powerpoint
was
pretty
well
organized,
makes
it
a
little
easier
for
us.
D
So
with
that
I'd
like
to
say
that
I
I
find
the
commissions
committees,
the
resident
volunteers,
important
link
to
our
community
staff
is
good
at
what
they
do
and
they
aren't
residents
of
the
community
and
those
thoughts
about
what
way
a
particular
project
should
be
done
or
should
include
or
not
include
it's
not
coming
from
a
community
perspective,
and
hopefully
our
commissions
are
bringing
that
to
the
table
before
it
comes
to
the
city
council.
D
Like
canyon
view,
bath
brothers
westport
the
the
type
of
input,
the
type
of
connection
with
the
community,
that
the
housing
commission
has
at
their
disposal
that
we
miss
out
on
when
they're
not
included
in
these
project
reviews-
and
I
find
it
disappointing
that
I
don't
have
the
housing
commission
to
look
to
and
what
did
they
think
about
it?
Whether
it's
the
veranda
project
or
the
marina
that
will
be
coming
to
us
is
the
developers
amount
of
bmr
appropriate?
Is
the
type
of
division
of
that
bmr?
D
D
For
the
transportation
committee
from
day,
one
I've
always
been
concerned
about
the
congestion
in
cupertino.
D
But
a
transportation
and
congestion
type
committee
we're
tonight
going
to
be
looking
at
the
stevens
creek
corridor
study
having
a
commission
that
did
some
advanced
groundwork
for
would
be
beneficial.
Let
them
kind
of
look
at
the
community.
The
bus,
ridership,
the
where
the
writer
is
getting
on
getting
off.
What's
optimum
for
our
community,
does
the
bus
come
in
at
one
end
and
doesn't
stop
or
maybe
only
has
one
stop
and
leaves
our
community?
D
Are
we
to
ask
those
questions
when
it
comes
to
us?
I
think
a
transportation
congestion
committee
or
commission
would
be
a
benefit.
We
may
not
want
to
do
it
now.
We
don't
want
to
do
things,
rushed
but
think
about
it.
If
we
put
these
questions
to
the
planning
commission
and
see
how
well
they're
able
to
to
present
those
in
the
future,
then
maybe
it'd
be
appropriate
to
say
gee
whiz.
Is
it
taking
them
away
from
the
general
plan,
the
heart
of
the
city,
the
impacts
of
those
types?
D
So
I
would
hope
that
tonight
we
would
go
ahead
and
give
some
of
that
direction.
The
housing
commission
planning
start
looking
into
traffic
and
congestion
things
of
that
nature,
and
I
do
like
the
comments
so
far
from
all
the
council.
It's
clear
to
me
that
this
council
values
our
commissions.
Thank
you.
K
Thank
you,
mayor
paul,
and
I'm
I'm
really
happy
that
I
think
our
council
is
very.
We
do
value
our
citizens
input
and
you
know
even
from
the
start,
with
the
report,
we
do
have
more
commissions
and
committees
than
a
lot
of
other
cities,
so
we
are
getting
a
lot
of
in
input
from
our
residents
and
I
think
we're
doing
very
well
in
that
area.
So
I
just
want
to
point
out
two
things.
K
You
know
this
council
is
very
is
very
conscientious
and
we
really
value
a
lot
of
perspectives,
but
we
do
need
to
watch
out
for
our
staff's
ability
to
handle
the
hours
so
to
gradually
maybe
add
more
responsibility
to
the
current
commissions
and
committees
instead
of
establishing
new
ones,
I
think,
might
be
a
good
route
to
go
to,
and
second
is
I'm
very
concerned
about
the
environmental
review
committees
that
our
city
attorney's
opinions
about
the
conflict
of
interest
issues
with
the
planning
commissioner
and
city
council
members
serving
on
the
erc
prior
to
projects
coming
to
the
planning,
commission
and
the
city
council.
K
Because
the
you
know
the
commissioner
and
the
council,
members
have
been
really
careful
in
not
saying
that
express
definite
opinions,
so
I
would
like
our
city
attorney
to
weigh
in
on
this.
I
think
that's
a
great
commission
to
have,
but
maybe
we
could
you
know,
listen
to
what
chris
has
to
say
and
be
really
cautious
on
moving
that,
because
we
really
don't
want
when
it
comes
to
counsel-
and
somebody
said
this
council
member
cannot
make
a
decision
because
it's
already
been
expressed.
I
just
really
concerned
about
that.
A
Great
thank
you
very
much
councilmember
way,
and
let
me
refer
that
question
to
our
city
attorney
chris
jensen,
so
chris
with
regard
to
that
concern,
is
there
a
way
to
alleviate
it,
or
would
you
like
to
otherwise
address
councilmember
way's
question.
L
Yeah,
no,
it's
it's!
It's
a
good
question
to
ask
you
know
so,
because
you
know
applicants
seeking
adjudicatory
excuse
me.
Decisions
from
council
are
entitled
to
due
process.
L
There
are
limits
to
what
council
can
say
in
advance
of
when
a
project
is
considered
in
a
public
hearing,
and
I
believe
that's
the
concern
that
councilmember
way
is
raising
and
and
it's
something
to
be
mindful
of
because
you
know,
for
example,
a
council
member
serving
on
the
erc
would
have
to
separate
the
the
decision
for
in
front
of
the
erc,
which
is
you
know
whether
you
know
an
eir
is
required,
or
an
initial
study
is
adequate
from
the
merits
of
the
project.
L
As
long
as
that
distinction
is,
is
honored
and
you
know,
there's
discipline
from
both
the
council
members
and
planning
commissioners
that
would
serve
on
the
committee.
Then
we
can
avoid
legal
concerns.
It
is
it
is.
It
is
a
potential
concern.
It
can
be
mitigated
as
long
as,
as
you
know,
there's
you
know
adequate
training
for
the
the
committee
members
and
and
disciplined
and
in
hearing
matters
that
come
before
them.
A
Great,
thank
you
very
much
chris.
So
let
me
visit
with
councilmember,
moore
and
vice
mayor
ciao
briefly,
can
I
bring
a
motion
at
this
point
prior
to
your
further
comments.
A
I
would
be
basing
this
upon
our
first
round
of
comments
that
I
heard,
or
is
there
something
that
you
would
like
to
say
before
I
provide
that
motion.
Let's
start
with
councilmember
moore
and
just
just
just
stick
with
my
question
for
now.
B
Thank
you,
yeah.
I
would
like
to
comment.
I
I
have
served
as
the
chair
of
the
environmental
review
committee
since
the
start
of
2019,
so
that
was
two
years
chairing
it
as
a
planning
commissioner
and
then
now,
as
as
a
council
member,
I
initiated
the
the
training
session
that
would
be
held.
B
It
was
the
first
time
that
training
was
provided
to
environmental
review
committee
members
and
it
went
very
well
and
then
it
was
further
presented
to
the
planning,
commission
and
council
member
willie,
and
the
vice
mayor
did
attend
in
person
for
that
and
I've
never
had
to
recuse
myself
from
any
of
the
decisions
which
came
to
the
the
planning
commission
or
the
council
after
serving
on
the
the
erc
and
also
for
my
own
enrichment,
I'm
halfway
through
a
three-month
sequa
eir
course,
which
takes
about
eight
to
ten
hours
per
week
of
study,
and
we
there
are
plenty
of
materials
for
the
erc
members
to
look
through
to
make
sure
that
they
are
performing
their
tasks
to
the
to
the
letter
of
the
law
within
our
municipal
code.
A
Okay,
thank
you,
councilmember
moore
and
vice
mayor
chow,
I'll.
Ask
you
the
same
question
prior
to
my
bringing
a
motion.
Is
there
anything
that
you
need
to
state
in
order
to
inform
that
motion?
J
J
Then
wouldn't
that
fall
under
sustainability,
commission
and
then
it
seems
erc
would
functionality
more
fall
under
as
a
subcommittee
of
planning.
Then
then
ss,
I
think
any
council
came
from
some
committee
and
planning
commission
and
former
subcommittee.
Is
the
candidate
make
a
recommendation
to
the
planning
commission?
Then
there
won't
be
the
legal
ambiguity
there.
So
I'm
just
wondering:
could
we
just
maybe
have
a
sustainability
advocate
for
eir
issue,
environmental
issues.
A
Okay,
I'm
gonna
go
ahead
and
bring
forward
the
motion
that
I
have
and
then
councilman
moore.
You
can
go
ahead.
I
mean
I'm
detecting
some
discussion
happening
here.
So
let
me
go
ahead
and
bring
this
forward
and
then
we
can
tailor
it
if
necessary.
A
You
know
following
further
discussion,
so
my
motion
is
that
I
move
that
the
city
council
direct
staff
to
one
prepare
a
proposed
codification
of
the
economic
development
committee
in
the
municipal
code
with
membership
comprised
of
two
members
of
the
city
council
and
three
members
from
the
community
representing
retail
hospitality
and
the
technology
industry.
A
Two
prepare
a
modification
to
the
municipal
code
regarding
the
environmental
review
committee
to
be
comprised
of
two
members
of
the
city
council
and
one
member
of
the
planning
commission
and
refer
to
the
committee.
The
question
of
what
scope
is
some
of
subject
matter.
It
would
like
to
review
and
bring
an
update
of
the
latter
back
to
council.
A
Three
refer
to
the
planning
commission,
the
question
of
what
scope
of
potential
subject
matter
related
to
transportation.
It
could
review
and
bring
an
update
back
to
council
four
provide
options
for
expansion
of
the
audit
committee.
Following
referral
of
the
question
by
staff,
or
let
me
strike
four,
let
me
modify
that
and
I'll
start
over
four
provide
options
for
expansion
of
the
audit
committee.
A
So
that's
my
motion
and
I
tried
to
address
the
issues
that
I
heard
expressed
here
in
a
way
that
we
could
bring
it
back
at
a
future
date
that
would
advance
the
conversation
and
the
requests
here
now.
I
do
want
to
make
a
comment
with
regard
to
the
planning
commission
referral.
A
I
believe
that
this
question
has
been
asked
by
at
least
one
individual
member
of
our
planning
commission
to
our
staff,
and
I
believe
that
the
the
answer
is
in
the
affirmative.
It
is
actually
in
their
charter
to
review
issues
related
to
transportation
and
transit
for
our
city.
So
so
that's
a
structure.
I
I
think
where
we
can.
A
We
should
refer
to
our
existing
commissions,
these
questions
and
we
may
find
that
it
is
within
their
charter
already
to
review
these,
and
we
need
to
empower
accordingly
once
we
have
more
more
more
thoroughly
considered
these
questions,
but
you
know
for
me,
I
think
it's
important
that
we
have
clarification
of
the
economic
development
committee.
A
I'd
really
like
to
see
that
in
the
municipal
code,
because
you
know
it's
been
meeting
on
a
regular
semi-regular
basis
at
times
for
the
last
15
years
or
more,
and
we
simply
don't
have
anywhere
in
the
municipal
code
that
describes
what
it
does
or
or
or
how
it's
formed,
and
you
know
what
its
composition
is
as
well
as
how
that
composition
is
chosen
and
then
everything
else.
A
I
think
that
we
can
direct
staff
to
make
the
follow-ups-
and
you
know
give
us
our
give
us
our
information,
that's
being
requested
here.
Councilmember
moore,
your
hand
is
raised.
B
Thank
you,
mayor
paul.
I
was
actually
hoping
that
you
yeah
yes,.
A
Yeah,
let
me
I'm
sorry
about
that.
Can
I
get
a
second
for
this
motion
before
we
open
this
up
for
a
further
discussion
council
member
willie
hi?
Second,
okay,
thank
you
very
much.
Okay,
so
councilmember
moore,
you
seem
to
be
proposing
a
perhaps
an
amendment
to
that
motion.
B
A
L
A
I'll
go
ahead
and
modify
that
the
motion
to
reflect
that
and
council
member
willie.
Are
you
amenable
to
that
as
the
second
order
of
the
motion
to
substitute
out
councilmember
more
for
myself
under
part
four
of
my
motion.
A
I'm
always
overworked,
but
but
thank
you.
I
only
have
nine
more
months
of
this
joy.
So
let
me
go
to
vice
mayor
ciao,
followed
by
council
member
away.
A
Yes,
that
would
actually
be
part
of
the
activity,
although
let
me
pause
here
and
make
a
referral
of
a
question
to
our
city
attorney
chris,
so
councilmember
moore
and
I
sit
on
the
audit
committee
now,
if
we're
referring
this
question,
maybe
I
I
I'm
not
sure
how
we
would
kind
of
form
this
out.
I
mean
we
would.
I
think
we
would
parse
it
out
by
basically
saying
what:
how
can
we
potentially
expand
this
subcommittee?
A
Not
now,
I'm
sorry,
not
the
subcommittee
but
the
the
subject
matter
of
the
committee,
and
so
I'm
just
trying
to
make
sure
that
we're
not
creating
a
majority
communication.
If
we
were
to
form
the
subcommittee-
and
you
know
commit
to
having
no
communication
with
the
other
member
of
the
audit
committee
from
our
city
council
would
that
would
that
work
under
the
legal
requirements
in
your?
In
your
estimation,.
L
So
yes,
as
long
as
as
the
ongoing
business
of
the
committee
is
kept
entirely
separate
from
the
discussion
of
changes
to
its
its
its
scope.
So
so
so
you
would
not
be
obviously
not
be
allowed
to
communicate
with
council
council
member
more
regarding
anything
related
to
changes
in
scope
of
the
committee.
But
as
long
as
discussion
of
those
two
subject,
matters
were
kept
separate.
That
would
not
create
any
issues
under
the
brown
act.
A
Yeah,
I
mean
okay.
Thank
you
very
much.
Chris
appreciate
that
I
mean
you
know.
Let
me
speak
also
to
councilmember
willie's
point.
So,
yes,
actually,
I
think
I
think
it
would
probably
take
a
fairly
considerable
amount
of
time.
I
you
know
I
actually
suggested
councilmember
moore
and
vice
mayor
ciao,
for
the
specific
reason
that
they
seem
to
be
the
people
among
our
council
members
that
are
interested
in
other
subject
matter
for
the
audit
committee.
A
I'm
fine
with
keeping
the
audit
committee
as
is,
and
just
having
the
audit
committee
complete
its
required
duties
under
the
municipal
code.
So
I
I
mean,
if
the
the
exercise
I
don't
want
to
undertake,
is
you
know,
spending
a
certain
amount
of
time
on
the
subcommittee
only
to
have
it
brought
back
where
I
think
we
might
eventually
realize
that
really
councilmember
moore
should
have
just
been
on
the
subcommittee
in
the
first
place,
rather
than
just
kind
of
you
know,
spending
that
time
and
then
bringing
back
and
then
finding
out.
A
You
have,
you
know
all
sorts
of
inputs.
You
know
which
are,
which
is
great,
but
I
mean
I
think
it
might
be
more
efficient.
Just
to
you
know,
have
you
on
the
subcommittee
to
begin
with,
so
that's
my
that's
my
thought
there,
and
so
you
know
I
I
do
see
you
have
your
hand
raised
and
so
councilmember
moore
do
you
want
to
speak
to
that
because
I
I
did
specifically
you
know,
indicate
your
participation
in
my
comment.
There.
B
Oh,
thank
you.
I
still
don't
have
any
intention
to
participate,
because
I
disagree
with
the
suggestion
of
removing
the
duties
that
the
audit
committee
already
has
one
of
the
problems
the
audit
committee
has
is
that
they
haven't
actually
been
performing
their
duties
and
getting
the
monthly
reports
and
going
over
them,
and
that's
why
there
haven't
been
as
many
meetings
each
year
as
there
should
be.
B
So
I
I
don't
support
the
motion
to
to
pull
the
duties
away
from
that
committee,
and
so
I
don't
want
to
work
on
the
subcommittee
to
to
perform
a
function
that
I
I
disagree
with
and
unfortunately
that
makes
my
my
vote
on
the
whole
motion.
You
know
kind
of.
I
can't.
I
can't
support
it
because
there's
there's
one
part
in
there,
which
I
I
disagree
with,
but
but
thank
you.
A
Okay,
let
me
read
back
that
part
of
the
motion
yeah,
so
so
you're
clearing
your
mind,
I
stated
provide
options
for
expansion
of
the
audit
committee
following
referral
of
the
question
to
a
subcommittee
formed
here,
comprised
of
vice
mayor
challenge,
mayor
paul
now,
and
bring
an
update
back
to
council,
so
it
wouldn't
be
a
contraction
of
the
duties
under
this
motion.
B
Well
under
under
when
I
look
at
the
the
the
the
report
from
staff,
it
is
to
form
the
fiscal
strategic
committee
taking
taking
roles
that
the
audit
committee
already
has
on
unto
it.
So
I,
if
you're,
if
you're
thinking
of
expanding
the
audit
committee
role,
I
think
that
what
it
already
has
as
its
charter
is
adequate,
we
just
need
to
do
our
jobs.
A
Well,
let
me
let
me
speak
back
to
councilmember
moore's
point
and
I
will
calling
you
next
vice
merchant,
so
so
so
councilmember
moore
understand
that
the
motion
on
the
table
is
not
staff's
report.
It's
not
staff's
recommendation.
I
understand
the
concern
might
be
that
you
know
there
might
be
an
imputation
of
staff's
will
upon.
You
know
what
we
pass
in
the
motion,
but
the
the
the
face
of
the
language
does
not
speak
to
what
staff
is
suggesting.
A
With
regard
to
the
fiscal
strategic
committee,
you
know,
like
I
said,
I'm
in
agreement
that
you
know
we
should
have.
The
audit
committee
perform
the
functions
that
the
audit
committee
is
supposed
to
perform
under
the
cop
under
the
municipal
code,
which
it
you
know
needs
to.
A
You
know
get
to
the
point
where
it's
there,
instead
of
you
know
taking
the
fiscal
strategic
committee,
which
we
don't
know
specifically
how
that's
defined,
although
I,
I
would
say
it's
probably
significantly
different
from
what
staff
is
suggesting
in
their
report
in
terms
of
reviewing
things
like
monthly
reports
that
are
again
required
under
the
municipal
code
to
be
reviewed
by
audit
committee.
So
you
know
it's
something
that
I
I
just.
I
just
want
to
clear
up.
A
Any
kind
of
you
know
kind
of
stated
misconception
with
regard
to
the
idea
that
that
part
of
the
motion
is
actually
retraction
of
the
duties
of
the
audit
committee.
I
understand
that
you
may
disagree
with
what
the
staff
is
describing
or
what
even
vice
mayor
chow
was
describing,
as
you
know,
some
ideas
of
how
to
reform
audit
and
or
fiscal,
strategic
and
or
you
know
something
else.
A
So
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
go
to
vice
mayor
ciao
at
this
point
and
councilmember
way
and
then
councilman
willie
vice
mayor
joe.
J
Thank
you.
So,
first
of
all,
I
staff
really
has
done
a
phenomenal
job,
summarizing
everything
and
try
to
propose
a
potential
structure,
although
it
may
not
capture
what
we
want.
I
agree
with
councilmember
moore
that
the
the
roles
currently
listed
in
the
staff
recommendation
should
are
already
part
of
audit
committee
and
she
actually
should
remain
there
and
and
then
in
my
mind,
the
role
of
this
subcommittee
is
actually
expanding.
J
It
probably
even
to
include
the
things
I
thought
fiscal
strategic
committee
should
have
include
done,
which
is
long-term
planning
that
the
city
doesn't
do,
and
I
I
thought
I
hope
this.
This
subcommittee
could
be
empowered
to
explore
expanding
order
to
include
fine
to
maybe
become
a
finance
committee.
That
does
not
only
audit
because
after
the
internal
audit
is
done,
then
we
could
have
more
time
for
long-term
planning
for
the
city,
and
that
should
be
part
of
the
overall
plan.
A
K
Thank
you,
mayor
paul.
I
just
wanted.
I
you.
You
spoke
really
fast
on
the
economic
development
committee
to
codify
it,
and
I,
if
I
remember
correctly,
you
said
two
council
members
and
three
business
people
from
three
different
fields
and
do
we
want
to
include
our
staff,
which
we
have
economic
development
officer,
and
I
do
believe
you
know
our
chamber
really
represents
our
businesses
and
they
do
yeoman's
job
in
promoting
businesses.
So
one
representative
from
the
chamber
probably
would
be
really
great
to
have
on
that
committee.
That
are
just
my
questions.
A
Yeah,
no
thank
you.
Kelson
away.
I
really
appreciate
those
questions.
You
know
my
expectation.
Actually
I
shouldn't
say
expectation.
I
I
should
say
my
prediction.
My
prediction
is
that
the
members
of
the
public
will
probably
come
from
chamber,
but
I
don't
want
to
foreclose.
A
You
know
any
other
members
of
the
public
right,
because
our
business
community
is
expansive
beyond
the
you
know,
breadth
of
the
chamber,
membership
and
the
board.
So
you
know
I
I
if
I
had
to
predict,
I
would
predict
that
you
know
most,
if
not
all
of
the
you
know,
people
that
we
select
because
of
their
background
and
because
of
you
know
what
they
do
within
the
community
would
have
at
least
some
kind
of
you
know
strong
relationship
with
chamber
of
commerce.
A
Now
that
being
said,
I
I
do
note
that
our
commissions
and
committees
they're
all
staffed,
but
that
doesn't
mean
that
the
commission
or
committee
members
are
comprised
of
staff.
So
so
that's
how
I
would
envision
the
economic
development
committee.
Yes,
absolutely
tina
kapoor,
as
our
economic
development
manager
would
indeed
you
know
I
would.
I
would
think
that
that
would
be
the
logical
choice
to
staff.
A
This
econ
economic
development
committee-
and
I
probably
should
have
made
that
explicit,
but
I'll-
do
that
right
now
I
mean
I
absolutely
you
know,
support
that
that
notion
of
having
the
person
that
is
from
our
staff
hired
specifically
for
that
particular
job
to
you,
know,
staff
this.
You
know
particular
committee.
So
thank
you
for
those
comments
and
questions
council,
member
willie.
Oh,
did
you
have
a
follow-up
at
all
smart
way
before
I.
D
Yeah,
so
I
I
do
like
the
way
you
have
phrased,
emotion,
where
you're
at
certain
places,
you
know
saying:
ask
the
commissions
to
review
these
thoughts
and
and
charters
and
come
back
to
us,
and
I
would
kind
of
expand
that
that,
although
we
have
our
thoughts,
we're
residents
of
cupertino,
so
hopefully
you
know-
we
are
very
aware
of
the
community
here.
But
the
commission
is
a
real
good
connection
with
the
community,
and
so
I
would
think
asking
them
to
simply
weigh
in
on
their
respective
charters.
D
Like
the
housing
commission,
we
had
one
of
them
speaking
tonight
and
what
they
feel
is
the
shortcoming
which
I
concur
with,
and
each
commission
then
can
come
back
and
let
us
know
how
they
feel
they
can
better
address
that
that
aspect,
that
charter
of
that
commission
and
I
would
even
suggest
that
you
know
once
a
year
they're
asked
to
weigh
in
the
composite
the
the
individuals
are
on
the
committee
change.
They
bring
expertises
and
things
of
that
nature,
and
we
could
be
missing
out
on
a
lot
of
these
advantages.
D
So
I'll
say
that
I
I
really
appreciate
councilman
moore's
thoughts
on
that
committee.
You
know
the
audit.
I
would
really
like
to
be
sure
that
we
we
keep
that
continuity
and
her
her
passion
and
we
don't
don't
dilute-
or
you
know,
draw
away
from
that.
So
I
would
kind
of
I'm
not
sure
how
to
reword
the
motion,
but
I
would
hope
that
we
could
do
a
friendly
motion
friendly
amendment
to
to
be
sure
that
we
keep
that
intact.
A
Great
thank
you
for
your
thoughts
on
this
councilman
willie.
I
mean
I
I'd
be
happy
to
break
it
out
into
a
separate
motion
as
well,
so
that
we
can,
you
know,
have
unanimity
for
the
rest
of
the
motion,
but
let
me
check
in
with
councilmember
more
briefly,
councilman
more
so
based
upon
the
discussion.
Are
you
still
opposed
to
that
part?
Four
of
my
motion?
B
Well,
I
I
I
would
like
to
actually
reply
back
to
council
member
willie
and
I
think
for
me
having
served
on
the
environmental
review
committee
and
put
a
lot
of
work
into
that
to
to
make
myself
as
useful
as
possible
in
that
role
that
you
know,
I'm
frankly
offended
by
by
what's
gone
on
this
evening
with
regards
to
re
tooling
it,
and
so
that
that's
that's
troublesome
and
then
also
with
audit
again.
B
I
specifically
asked
to
be
on
audit
for
a
second
year
to
continue
digging
into
the
budget
and
the
policies
to
to
be
able
to
make
useful
comments
there
and
the
the
committee
already
has
a
lot
on
its
plate.
I
I
thought
it
was
very
interesting.
What's
what's
actually
in
the
municipal
code
for
its
roles
and
we've
been
going
over
that
and
working
to
make
sure
that
we're
actually
performing
the
duties
and
then
asking
the
questions
about
oversight?
B
Do
we
have
a
chilling
effect
with
the
composition?
That's
that
shows
up
at
the
meetings.
Those
types
of
questions,
so
I
think
to
council
member
willie's
points
that
I
think
it
is
really
important
that
we
speak
to
the
people
who
are
on
these
committees
and
get
their
actual
input
rather
than
retooling.
What
they're
doing,
because
you
know.
B
From
my
perspective,
I
would
like
to
have
been
asked
what
do
I
think,
rather
than
being
told
in
a
staff
report,
how
staff
would
like
to
rework
committees
that
we're
serving
on
and
and
and
be
mindful
and
respectful
of
the
people
who
are
serving
on
those
committees,
their
time
and
energy,
that
they're
spending?
And
with
regards
to
the
sustainability
commission,
they
have
the
climate
action
plan.
They
had
the
reach
codes.
They
already
have
a
ton
of
work
that
climate
action
plan
it's
over
400
pages
long
and
it's
got
an
update.
B
There's
I
I
don't
see,
there's
any
way
that
they
can
take
on
the
specialization
of
understanding
the
secret
documents.
Along
with
that,
because
they've
got
so
much
there
and
objective
standards
can
go
into
a
climate
action
plan,
all
sorts
of
things,
so
I
I
think
it
needs
to
be.
It
can't
be
done
on
the
fly.
We're
going
to
rework
these
committees
that
have
such
meaty
substance
already.
A
Okay,
and
so
when
you
talk
about
the
environmental
review
committee-
and
you
indicated
that
you
had
some
reservation
about
retooling
it.
So
so
is
that
to
say
that
you
want
to
keep
our
staff
members.
B
A
That's
you
know,
that's
not
in
the
motion
right.
That
was,
I
think,
a
comment
made
by.
B
Yes,
yes,
mayor
and
with
regards
to
scope
of
the
erc,
it's
so
that,
because
you
hopefully
you've
got
people
who
are
passionate
about
looking
at
secret
documents
to
expand
the
scope.
So
we
can
look
at
other
ones
because,
as
you've
note
probably
noted
in
on
the
schedule,
so
many
of
those
meetings
have
been
canceled.
I
think
maybe
two
three
last
year
at
the
most
it
was,
it
were
hardly
ever
meeting.
A
Okay,
so
here's
what
I
suggest
and
vice
versa-
I
will
go
back
to
you
before
you
know.
I
asked
for
a
vote.
You
know
I
I
would
suggest-
and
this
I
I
guess,
harkens
back
to
councilman
willie's
comment
with
regard
to
going
back
to
the
commissions
and
committees
and
asking
what
they
want.
Let's
try
this
because
we
have
a
few
committees
and
commissions
that
are
kind
of
driven,
largely
internally,
to
ask,
for
you
know:
potential
modified
or
expanded
scope,
so
you've
got
the
environmental
review
committee.
That's
in
there.
A
We've
got
audit
committee
that
possibility
of
expansion
is
also
in
the
motion
with
regard
to
transportation,
while
it's
true
that
nobody
from
planning
commission
spoke
this
evening
with
regard
to
you
know,
perhaps
adding
transportation
explicitly
into
the
charter.
We
did
have
members
of
the
public
ask
about
that
and
we
did
have
comments
from
our
city
council,
so
my
suggestion
would
be
rather
than
going
to
all
of
the
commissions
and
committees
and
undertaking
that
exercise
that
we
try
this
out.
A
You
know
with
with
this
motion,
because
it's
a
packetizable,
you
know
follow-up
that
actually
has
been
affirmatively
asked
for,
and
so
you
know,
let's
see
how
that
works
out,
and
hopefully
you
can
come
back
timely.
I
would
really
like
to
see
the
economic
development
committee
not
be
delayed
any
longer.
I
don't
think
we
need
to
ask
staff
to
do
any
more
studies
on
this.
I
mean
you
know
the
way
I
design
this
motion
is
basically
look.
This
is
not
codified.
A
It's
been
meeting
for
at
least
15
years,
let's
codify
it,
let's
get
people,
you
know
populating
it
and,
let's
move
on
with
the
you
know
the
business
of
the
city
and
so
far
as
it's
concerned.
So
that
would
be
my
suggestion
and
councilmember
moore,
I'm
not
quite
hearing
whether
taking
item
four
out
and
putting
it
into
a
separate
motion
would
would
garner
your
support
at
this
point
for
the
primary
motion
or,
if
you're,
okay,
with
the
entirety
of
the
motion
that
is
as
it
exists
now.
A
Sure
I
have
it
written
down,
so
this
is
that
part
of
the
motion
provide
options
for
expansion
of
the
audit
committee.
Following
referral
of
the
question
to
a
subcommittee
formed
here,
comprised
of
vice
mayor
chow
and
mayor
paul,
and
bring
an
update
back
to
council.
So
another.
J
First
question
and
then
I
have
a
friendly
amendment.
The
question
is
whether
the
the
referral
for
housing
commission
to
consider
options
include
social
services.
A
Let
me
review
that
part
of
the
motion
refer
to
the
housing
commission.
The
question
of
what
scope
of
subject
matter
is
has
been
undertaking
and
what
subject
matter
it
would
like
to
review
and
bring
an
update
back
to
council.
So
to
answer
your
question
vice
mayor
chao
that
update
back
to
council
when
it
revisits
us,
you
can
specifically
ask
for
the
social
services
to
be.
You
know
discussed
you
can
do
your
diligence.
You
know
with.
J
I
would
like
so
I
would
like
to
propose
a
friendly
amendment
for
the
housing
part
to
specifically
mention
such
as
social
services,
so
that
they
know
this
is
part
of
things
they
could
consider,
because
otherwise
they
might
not
even
know
that
they
can
consider
something
via
housing.
And
second,
I
would
like
to
propose
that
for
library,
commission,
we
also
give
a
referral
for
the
library
commission
to
consider
expanding
their
role,
to
facilitate
and
recommend
the
council
on
community
engagement
methods.
A
A
Okay,
vice
mayor
chow,
I
I'm
I'm
a
little
bit
leery
right
now
of
accepting
the
friendly
amendment
with
regard
to
the
library
portion
of
it,
because
I
simply
think
that
we
don't
have
enough
time
and
I
don't
have
enough
time
to
absorb
it
right
now
and
I
haven't
heard
comment
on
it.
So
I
would
like
to
defer
that
to
another
discussion,
but
I
went
ahead
and
modified
the
part
five
of
the
motion
so
that
the
entirety
of
part
five
now
reads
refer
to
the
housing
commission,
the
question
of
what
scope
of
such
subject
matter.
A
It
has
been
undertaking
and
what
subject
matter
it
would
like
to
review
and
include
consideration
of
social
services
and
bring
an
update
back
to
council
so
I'll,
go
ahead
and
amend
that
in
the
motion
and
ask
council
member
willie.
If
you
would
second
that,
as
the
seconder
of
the
original
motion.
A
You
know
vice
mayor
chow,
I
I
would
like
us
to
go
ahead
and
consider
that
in
in
at
a
future
time,
I
I
think
it's
a
little
bit
late
at
this
point,
I
I
did
say
at
the
outset
that
I
wanted
to
contain
this
to
45
minutes,
we're
now
a
little
bit
more
than
five
minutes
past
that,
and
we
have
only
four
minutes
until
our
regular
council
meeting
starts.
A
I
I
didn't
catch
that
and
I
apologize
for
that,
and
so
you
know
rather
than
having
a
drawn
out
discussion
at
this
point
and.
A
A
Okay,
I
I
apologize
for
that,
and
you
know
I
I.
I
sincerely
hope
that
you
have
this
opportunity
to
you
know
to
to
to
you
know,
navigate
these
aspects
as
well,
but
at
this
point
I'm
gonna
go
ahead
and
and
table
that
and
ask
that
you
bring
that
back
when
we
when
we
come
back
katie,
you
have
your
hand
raised.
Did
you
want
to
make
a
comment
on
something.
C
Just
two
really
quick
points
of
clarification.
Oh
sorry
does,
when
you
said
refer
to
the
erc
the
question.
What
they
would
like
to
have
in
their
scope
is
that
after
we
make
the
changes
to
the
membership.
A
I'd
like
you
to
bring
back
the
modification
of
the
municipal
code,
so
that
is
going
to
have
to
be
read
in
a
first
reading
and
a
second
reading.
I
would
hope
in
a
first
reading.
You
would
have
enough
time
to
reference
to
the
environmental
review
committee,
the
question
of
the
expanded
scope.
So
pragmatically
speaking,
we
have
a
member
of
the
erc
on
our
council.
I
would
say:
ask
ask
councilmember
moore
specifically
what
the
expanded
scope
you
know
that
she
would
like
to
see
is.
A
If
you
want
to
ask
staff
members,
you
know
and
and
any
other
member
of
the
erc,
that's
fine
but
bring
that
list.
At
the
same
time,
you're
bringing
back
the.
A
A
Right
now
the
fiscal
strategic
committee
is
on
hold.
I
would
ask
that
it
remain
on
hold,
then
that
could
be
a
follow-up
item
together
with
vice
mayor
chao's
request
for
the
additional
commission's
consideration.
So
hopefully
we
can
turn
that
around
and
you
know
in
a
relatively
efficient
amount
of
time.
I
would
say
two
months,
maybe
three
so.
C
C
A
A
A
Okay,
we're
at
6
44,
and
so
I'm
just
going
to
hold
on
to
this
and
start
our
meeting
timely
at
6
45
for
the
regular
meeting
and
so
we'll
we'll
take
an
early
break
on
our
regular
meeting
momentarily.
A
A
Here
you,
madam
city
clerk,
our
first
section
in
our
agenda
is
ceremonial
matters
and
proclamations
today,
item
one
is
a
proclamation
supporting
the
united
nations
human
rights
council
resolution,
recognizing
access
to
a
healthy
and
sustainable
environment
as
a
universal
right,
and
I'm
very
pleased
today
to
be
able
to
welcome
a
couple
of
members
of
the
model
united
nations
club
from
cupertino
high
school.
And
so
let
me
see
or
refer
to
our
city
clerk.
Madam
city
clerk
did
our
our
students
that
were
going
to
be
here.
Are
they
attending
now?
A
I
think
you
had
given
me
the
names
of
vanch,
mathur
and
caroline
chung.
I
see
caroline
welcome
caroline
and
vance
you're
here
as
well
great,
and
so
we
have
a
member
of
the
staff
of
congressman
rokhana
as
well.
Tom
pike
is
here
to
accept
the
proclamation
in
joint,
and
so
let
me
give
a
little
bit
of
bandwidth
and
time
first
to
our
students
and
then
to
our
congressional
representative,
vance
or
caroline.
A
Would
you
like
to
say
a
few
words
either
regarding
your
model,
un
organization
or
the
proclamation
or
both.
O
I
absolutely
would
echo
everything
that
carolyn
mentioned
at
least
speaking
from
the
perspective
of
someone
who's
just
in
this
activity
participating
in
model
united
nations
has
definitely
been
my
most
enriching
educational
and
advocational
opportunity,
but
you
know
sometimes
model
just
feels
a
bit
too
much
like
a
model
like
a
simulation,
after
only
advocating
in
a
classroom
of
20
30
students,
and
nowhere
beyond
that.
I've
heard
from
myself
and
a
few
other
students
from
our
high
school
that
it's
very
often
tough
to
feel
like.
O
We
have
a
voice,
it's
tough
to
advocate
for
something
like
international
human
rights.
But
the
passing
of
this
resolution
has
proven
to
me
to
our
model
e1
team
at
cupertino
high
and
to
thousands
of
other
teenagers
that,
even
though
it
is
tough
that
it's
possible,
the
un
itself
reported
that
a
hundred
thousand
children
teenagers
like
me
and
my
friend
carolyn
work
to
make
this
happen
and
that
that
gives
us
hope.
A
Thank
you
so
much
manchin.
Thank
you
carolyn.
Well,
let's
turn
our
attention
to
tom
pike
of
congressman
rochanna's
office
welcome
tom
did
you
want
to
say
a
few
words.
P
Sure,
just
a
couple
more
points,
thank
you,
mr
mayor,
and
as
carolyn
and
vaughn
said,
this
u.n
resolution
recognizes
access
to
a
healthy
and
sustainable
environment
as
a
universal
human
right,
and
such
a
resolution
provides
political
impetus
for
governments
across
the
world
to
take
action
to
protect
those
human
rights
and
by
making
this
proclamation
here
today,
the
city
of
cupertino
not
only
shows
that
it
stands
with
that
effort,
but
that
it
will
act
with
those
human
rights
in
mind
going
forward.
P
So,
on
behalf
of
representative
rokhana,
I'd
like
to
thank
you,
the
cupertino
city
council,
for
taking
this
action
and
also
thank
our
model,
u.n
student
representatives,
carolyn
and
vonch
for
carrying
that
message
forward.
So
thank
you.
Everyone.
A
Wonderful,
thank
you
so
much
tom,
and
so
let's
go
ahead
at
this
time
on
behalf
of
our
city,
council
and
community.
I
do
want
to
give
credit
where
credit
is
absolutely
due.
We
wouldn't
be
able
to
put
this
forward
without
the
community
support
that
we
have
and
we
wouldn't
be
able
to
put
this
forward
without
a
hard-working
council
that
really
gets
into
the
details
and
really
you
know,
sees
these
types
of
opportunities
and
and
puts
forward
these
initiatives.
So
thank
you
very
much.
This
has
been
a
wonderful
confluence
of
opportunity.
A
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
ask
that
our
staff
members
turn
off
their
cameras
so
that
we
can
get
a
quick
screenshot
of
the
proclamation,
the
those
accepting
from
our
local
high
school
cupertino
high
school,
as
well
as
from
congressman
rochana's
office
tom
pike.
So
thanks
very
much,
and
hopefully
we
do
have
the
tessellated
nine
square
configuration
here.
A
All
right,
wonderful,
thank
you
again.
So
very
much,
and
you
know
I
I
just
want
to
close
by
saying
on
behalf
of
our
council,
that
these
really
are
not
empty
words.
As
you
know,
the
community
can
see
we
are
definitively
taking
action
behind
these
types
of
measures
and
trying
to
bring
as
clean
of
an
environment
to
everyone
as
possible.
So
thanks
again
for
being
with
us,
as
we
kind
of
traverse
this
journey
on
this
evening
and
take
care,
have
a
great
night.
A
So
we're
on
to
item
number
two
and
with
regard
to
another
sector
of
our
community,
that
people
are
very
much
concerned
about
public
safety,
we're
very
happy
to
be
able
to
host
our
sheriff's
captain
for
the
west
valley,
substation.
Captain
ricardo
urina
is
here
tonight.
I
know
that
a
lot
of
people
in
our
community
are
are
deeply
concerned.
A
With
regard
to
security
issues-
and
you
know
I
know
it
goes
without
saying,
but
we
are
extremely
fortunate
to
be
living
in
the
west
valley
and
to
be
living
in
cupertino
and
there
are
there
are
definitely
you
know,
travails
and
challenges
that
we
face,
but,
relatively
speaking,
we're
actually.
A
Quite
quite
fortunate,
we
have
a
wonderful
relationship
with
our
sheriff's
office
and
particularly
with
the
west
valley,
substation
and
its
tradition
of
you
know,
excellent
captains
being
assigned
to
the
west
valley
substation,
so
captain
urina
this
evening
through
our
city
manager
as
well,
because
you
know
typically-
and
I
just
wanna-
make
a
really
quick
aside.
I
wanna
thank
city
manager,
jim
troupe,
for
kind
of
adding
a
bit
of
a
shortcut
to
our
agendas
to
indicate
who,
on
our
staff,
is
going
to
be
providing.
A
You
know
each
of
these
updates
and
staff
presentations
so
in
case
any
members
of
the
public
were
wondering
about
this
edition,
or
if
you
noticed
that
in
some
of
our
agenda
items
that
actually
identifies
who
among
the
staff
is
going
to
be
providing
the
presentation,
that
is,
an
innovation
provided
by
our
city
manager,
jim
troop,
so
without
any
further
delay
there,
though,
from
the
aside
captain
urina.
Thank
you
so
much
for
being
with
us
here
this
evening.
A
I
know
that
this
is
a
very
statistically
and
data
driven
community,
and
so
they
would
love
to
have
all
the
information
that
you
have
to
provide,
as
well
as
any
suggestions
for
what
we
can
be
doing
and
how
we
can
be
collaborating
together,
not
just
with
the
sheriff's
office
and
the
west
valley
substation,
but
with
each
other
and
within
the
community
and
with
our
staff
to
help
to
optimize
the
public
safety
concerns
of
our
citizenry.
Q
Thank
you
vice,
I'm
sorry,
thank
you,
mayor
paul
vice
mayor
tau,
members
of
the
council
city
staff
residents.
I
hope
this
evening
finds
everyone
well
captain
rich
urina.
I
am
your
chief
of
police
for
the
city
of
cupertino.
Q
Q
Jump
right
into
it,
we'll
start
off
with
our
mission
statement
of
the
west
valley
control
division.
The
mission
of
the
santa
clara
county
sheriff's
office,
west
valley,
patrol
division
is
to
provide
professional,
responsive
and
effective
law
enforcement
services
to
the
communities
we
serve.
We
strive
to
enhance
public
safety
through
proactive
problem
solving
and
community
awareness
our
agenda
for
this
evening.
Q
We'll
talk
a
little
bit
about
residential
burglaries,
vehicle
burglaries,
robberies,
response
times.
In
other
words,
how
quickly
are
deputies
responding
to
your
call
for
service
when
you
make
that
call
we'll?
Certainly
look
at
that
data,
some
new
initiatives
and
programs
we're
working
on
as
well
as
our
new
psychiatric
emergency
response
team.
What
we
call
the
perk
team.
Q
I
think
folks
will
find
that
that
program
is
extremely
valuable
in
our
community
and
then
we'll
talk
about
some
community
programs
that
we're
involved
in
and
then
lastly,
have
plenty
of
time
for
some
questions
and
answers.
Let's
jump
right
into
it
here,
so
we're
looking
at
here
are
our
crime
categories
on
the
left.
Let's
see
if
I
can
use
a
pointer
here,
some
crime
categories
on
the
left.
Q
The
column
here
is
the
year
2020
2021
and
then
the
difference
percentage,
whether
it
was
an
increase
or
a
decrease
in
crime,
as
we
compare
2020
to
2021.
So
the
first
category
we're
looking
at
is
robbery.
We
did
have
18
robberies
last
year
compared
to
21
the
year
before.
That
was
a
14
decrease.
We'll
discuss
a
little
bit
more
about
robberies
in
a
few
future,
slides
residential
burglaries
79
this
past
year.
Q
Q
We
did
see
a
small
spike
there
and
the
reason
for
that
was
because
what
we
noticed
was
if
folks
recall,
we
had
this
thing
called
the
pandemic
that
started
in
march
of
2020,
and
with
that
we
noticed
crime
trends
change
a
little
bit,
and
so
we
did
experience
a
small
spike
in
folks
breaking
into
some
commercial
establishments.
Q
Q
Again,
that's
a
six
percent
decrease
grand
theft
interesting
category
here,
grand
theft,
grand
theft
is
the
stealing
of
anything,
that's
worth
951
dollars
and
up
right.
So
whether
it's
a
bicycle,
that's
worth
over
950
dollars.
You
know
whether
it's
some
electronic,
an
ipad
so
on
and
so
forth.
The
reason
for
the
significant
increase
here
of
53
percent
is
directly
related
to
the
catholic
converter
situation.
We're
dealing
with
region-wide
and
a
catalytic
converter
essentially
is
a
device.
That's
installed
in
our
vehicles
that
really
filter
some
of
the
emissions.
Q
Before
it
goes
out
through
the
muffler
and
out
to
the
outside
of
the
vehicle,
and
so
crooks
have
found
out
that
these
devices
are
extremely
valuable
to
sell,
there
are
certain
certain
metals
within
the
catalytic
converter
that
make
it
extremely
valuable,
and
so
we
did
experience
a
total
of
93
cali
converter
thefts.
Q
Q
The
crimes
are
mostly
occurring
during
the
overnight
hours
and
targeting
hybrid
type
vehicles,
and
the
reason
for
the
hybrids
is
because
they
have
these.
These
two
power
sources
right
and
so
hybrids
have
an
electric
motor
and
therefore
the
catalytic
converters
are
used
less
frequently
to
process
the
pollutants.
Q
And
what
happens
is
they
they
leave
the
metals
inside
the
converter,
less
corroded
and
more
valuable.
So
if
you
have
a
hybrid
out
there
or
really
any
car,
but
specifically
a
hybrid
we're,
recommending
folks
park
in
garages
in
your
own
garage,
restrict
access
to
the
underneath
carriage
of
the
vehicle,
because
these
crooks
do
have
to
slide
under
your
vehicle
to
be
able
to
cut
the
calid
converter,
we're
recommending
folks
park
in
a
well
lit
area,
highly
visible
or
a
highly
traffic
area.
Q
If
you're
out
and
about
say,
you're
shopping,
please
park
an
area,
that's
well
lit,
install
an
aftermarket
device
that
are
out
there.
Certainly,
you
can
find
a
lot
of
devices
that
can
be
installed
after
market
to
have
your
cali
converter
stolen.
It
takes
about
30
seconds,
or
so
the
cost
is
up
to
three
or
four
thousand
dollars
to
replace
it.
The
thieves
do
get
about
two
or
three
hundred
dollars
per
device
right,
30
seconds
of
work
to
300.
Q
That's
a
pretty
good
chunk
of
change
for
the
thieves,
and
so
we
are
working
on
curving
this.
I
can
say
that
we
made
significant
arrests
that
are
folks
coming
into
the
city
again
stealing
these
items,
and
so
we'll
continue
to
work
on
that
auto
theft.
That's
the
stealing
of
a
vehicle,
the
entire
vehicle
we
did
see
a
16
percent
increase
and
the
reason
for
that
was
folks
are
leaving
their
the
key
fob
and
I
think
we
all
know
what
the
key
fob
is
right.
Q
They're
leaving
a
key
fob.
Excuse
me
in
their
car
or
near
their
car
and
the
crooks
are
finding
the
key
fobs
or
just
testing
the
car.
The
little
button
where
you
start
the
vehicle.
Excuse
me
yeah
and
they're,
taking
advantage
of
what
we're
doing
with
the
key
fob.
So
our
recommendation
is
please:
if
you
have
a
key
fob,
don't
leave
it
in
the
car.
Q
Take
it
into
the
home
with
you
put
it
in
a
place,
that's
a
significant
distance
from
that
vehicle.
But
again,
that's
that's
the
the
number
one
way
that
these
crooks
are
still
in
our
vehicles:
vandalism,
vandalism.
We
did
see
a
25
increase
and
that's
defacing,
destroying
or
damaging
property.
It
does
kind
of
fit
different
categories.
Some
of
the
examples
are,
if
somebody
spray
paints
like
graffiti
on
a
wall
somewhere.
That
certainly
would
be
vandalism
if
somebody
throws
a
rock
and
breaks.
Q
You
know
your
your
vehicle's
front.
Windshield,
for
example,
or
side
windshield,
that's
vandalism.
If
somebody
throws
a
rock
at
your
home,
breaks
up
a
pod
or
something
of
value.
Again,
that's
considered
vandalism,
and
so
we
did
have
a
small
increase
in
that
25
percent
identity
theft.
Six
percent
decrease
domestic
violence.
The
17
percent
decrease
the
salts.
These
are
all
type
all
types
of
assaults,
26
decrease
and
then
our
sex
crimes
were
flat.
Q
Q
What
to
notice
is
we
had
us
a
spike
back
in
2015
and
then
it
kind
of
went
down
a
little
bit
leveled
off,
and
here
we
are
in
2021
this
past
year
with
79
and
make
no
mistake.
79
is
79
too
many,
certainly,
and
so
we
we
strive
to
work
hard
at
investigating
these.
Q
We
have
made
some
arrests.
It
is
a
difficult
crime
to
investigate,
but
we
use
all
of
our
available
technology
to
try
to
investigate
these
incidents
won't
get
into
the
details,
but
I
will
say
that
a
lot
of
things
that
you
see
on
some
of
the
shows
with
dna
and
things
like
that,
we
do.
We
do
utilize,
those
those
systems,
if
you
will,
but
again,
you
know
it
is
79
too
many
we're
working
on
trying
to
prove
that
this
pie.
Chart
here
is
is
very
important
for
residents
to
understand.
Q
So
what
this
indicates
to
us
is
when
we're
going
on
vacation
or
taking
an
extended
weekend
somewhere,
the
crooks
are
breaking
into
our
homes.
So
it's
important
it's
extremely
important
to
let
someone
know
a
neighbor,
a
trusted.
Neighbor,
we
have
a
patrol
check,
request
form
you
can
fill
out.
If
you
go
to
our
website.
Q
Let
us
know
you'll
be
gone
for
a
few
days.
We
can
certainly
drive
by
and
check
check
up
on
your
our
residents
there,
and
so
this
particular
area
is
an
area
we
continue
to
see
in
other
jurisdictions
as
well
the
early
morning,
hours
between
12
and
7
a.m,
18
right
during
the
day,
which
is
typically
the
the
the
busiest.
Q
This
is
typically
the
area
where
we
see
a
significant
number,
so
I
would
say
that
out
of
these
49
percent,
you
could
probably
add
20
to
this
19
and
make
it
39
here,
because,
even
though
we
don't
know
what
time
of
day
or
what
days
are
occurring,
we
have
a
strong
suspicion,
they're
occurring
during
the
day,
we're
very
vigilant
overnight.
The
overnight
hours
deputies
are
driving
around
all
over
the
city
at
night
and
any
any
vehicle.
That's
out
there,
that's
suspicious.
Q
You
know
we're
going
to
look
at
it
closely
and
the
crooks
know
that,
and
so
they
try
to
utilize
the
day
to
kind
of
blend
in
and
look
like
any
other
vehicle
and
then
commit
these
puns
and
then
the
evening
time.
This
is
between
five
and
midnight
14.
Q
in
2019
we
had
464
vehicle
burglaries
in
this
city,
and
so,
as
the
year
ended,
we
were
putting
in
place
measures
to
combat
this
number,
because
for
the
last
previous
three
four
years
we
had
seen
this
increase,
and
so
even
though
we
did
work
on
trying
to
mitigate
some
of
these
thefts
back
in
2019,
there
was
certainly
a
lot
more.
Q
We
we
could
have
done
and
then
again
in
in
march
of
2020,
we
saw
covet,
which
just
made
a
significant
difference
in
vehicle
burglaries
and
the
main
reason
for
that
was
really
because
these
occur
mostly
in
our
shopping
centers
and
because
the
shopping
centers
were
closed.
The
thieves
didn't
have
that
opportunity
to
victimize
residents.
Q
I
mean
again
this
past
year,
176,
which
is
less
than
the
year
before,
which
did
surprise
us
a
little
bit
in
looking
at
the
data
because,
again,
keep
in
mind
we
weren't
really
open
in
2020,
and
so
the
thieves
didn't
get
an
opportunity
to
victimize
residents.
Then
this
past
year
it
was
less
than
2020.,
as
I
mentioned.
Most
of
these
are
occurring
in
our
commercial
establishments.
Q
Our
shopping
centers
in
the
parking
lots
67
percent
of
these.
It
is
why
we
spend
the
majority
of
our
patrol
time
in
and
around
some
of
the
shopping
centers.
I
don't
mind
telling
you
that
we
do
have
deputies
that
are
sometimes
in
a
covert
type
operation,
meaning
they're
in
a
vehicle.
That's
not
distinguishable
as
a
police
vehicle.
Perhaps
in
civilian
street
clothes.
Q
Q
So
some
of
the
tips
for
residents
is,
if
you're,
going
to
a
shopping
center
again,
given
this
total
here,
67
percent,
please
be
mindful
of
your
surroundings.
Again,
please
park
in
an
area.
That's
well
lit
turn
on
your
vehicle
alarm.
If
you
see
any
suspicious
vehicles
or
persons
near
your
vehicle,
don't
leave
your
vehicle
drive
to
another
area
park
somewhere
else
and
call
us.
Q
The
most
important
advice
I
can
give
folks
is:
don't
leave
anything
of
value
in
your
car,
even
if
it's
a
bag
that
has
nothing
in
it.
If
the
thieves
look
inside
your
car
and
see
a
bag,
they're
gonna
assume,
there's
value
in
the
bag
and
they're
gonna
break
your
window
and
take
the
bag.
So
please
help
us,
don't
leave
anything
of
value
in
your
vehicle
and
if
you
see
anyone
suspicious
out
there
or
any
vehicles,
give
us
a
call.
Q
Robberies,
robberies
really
are
are
are
what
we
call
a
person:
crime,
they're,
they're,
very
dangerous.
These
are
incidents
where
the
thieves
are
using
force
or
fear
to
take
property
from
us
from
residents
right
and
so
an
example
is,
if
you're
sitting
at
a
park
bench
and
you
have
your
purse
or
bag.
Next
to
you,
and
somebody
comes
up
with
a
handgun,
a
firearm
and
says:
give
me
your
bag.
Give
me
your
purse.
Q
Q
On
the
other
hand,
if
you're
sitting
at
the
park
bench-
and
you
have
your
bag,
your
purse,
next
to
you
and
you
turn
to
your
left
and
then
all
of
a
sudden.
You
look
to
your
right
and
your
pressure
bag
is
gone.
It's
no
longer
there
that's
considered
a
theft,
that's
not
a
robbery
right,
so
the
robbery
is
more.
Q
This
personal
crime,
and
as
I
mentioned,
that
is
a
significant
crime
and
we
utilize
a
lot
of
resources
to
make
sure
that
whoever
commits
these
robberies
are
brought
to
justice,
and
so
this
past
year
we
did
see
18
of
these
crimes
in
the
city
and
to
drill
down
a
little
bit
on
the
data.
Here
we
did
not
have
any
bank
robberies
this
past
year.
Q
I
think
it's
been
a
few
years
since
we've
had
bank
robberies.
We
had
six
incidents
where
somebody
was
fearful
and
therefore
gave
the
item
to
the
thieves.
Q
We
had
ten
that
included
snatching
and
grabbing
purses
from
vehicles,
no
home
invasions,
no
pharmacy
takeovers,
and
we
did
have
two
shop
lifters
that
turned
into
robbery
simply
because
the
employee
tried
to
stop
the
shoplifter
and
then
this
struggle
ensued
where
it
turned
the
the
otherwise
theft
into
a
robbery
of
the
18.
We
had
this
past
year.
11
did
not
involve
a
weapon
seven
did
and
of
the
18
that
we
had
this
past
year.
Q
This
is
extremely
important
for
me.
I
think
we
would
all
agree
that
when
you
dial
9-1-1,
you
certainly
want
to
have
an
officer
or
deputy
there
as
quickly
as
possible,
and
so
we're
looking
at
here
is
our
average
response
times
for
2019
through
2021
a
priority.
One
type
call
here,
which
has
a
target
time
of
five
minutes,
is
really
a
life-threatening
type
situation
right.
So
we're
talking
about
is
shootings,
assaults,
robberies
but
also
calls
such
as
the
missing
person.
That's
at
risk,
perhaps
the
toddler.
Q
Perhaps
it's
an
elderly
person
who's
at
at
risk
for
harm
if
we
don't
get
there
quickly
and
figure
out
what's
going
on,
so
these
are
typically
when
you
see
us
driving
with
our
lights
and
siren,
so
we
can
get
through
as
quickly
as
possible,
and
so
those
are
priority.
One.
Our
priority
two
type
calls
really
are:
there's
no
imminent
threat
to
life
for
property
right.
So
an
example
of
a
priority.
Q
Two
type
call
would
be
a
home
alarm
right,
you
leave,
you
go
to
dinner
and
your
residential
home
alarm
is
turned
on
and
for
whatever
reason
it
goes
off.
That
would
be
considered
a
priority
to
call
for
us
and
we
certainly
want
to
get
there
before
the
nine-minute
marker.
Those
are
the
most
common.
Certainly
if
you
came
home
and
saw
something
somebody
running
away
from
your
home
carrying
something
would
also
be
a
priority
to
call
something
that
just
occurred.
Q
That
requires
remediated
attention,
but
there's
no
life-threatening
situation
involved
and
then
our
priority
three
calls
are
those
that
are
what
we
call
cold
type
cases:
cold
crimes
you
wake
up
in
the
morning.
You
go
outside
to
your
vehicle
and
somebody
had
smashed
the
window
and
took
property
from
you
and
and
that's
a
20-minute
response
time
and.
F
Q
You'll
see
is
that
we've
been
meeting
our
response
times
every
year,
which
is
good.
We
certainly
want
to
be
responsive
to
those
requests
that
come
in
to
us
and
it
looks
like
we've
been
doing
that
every
every
year
here.
Q
Some
of
the
new
initiatives
and
programs
we
have
and
we're
working
on
is
body
worn
cameras,
so
every
deputy,
that's
working
in
cupertino,
has
a
body
worn
camera.
Every
contact
that
is
made
is
recorded
both
in
the
vehicle
and
in
person
right.
So
the
vehicles
have
cameras,
deputies
have
body-worn
cameras.
Q
Q
So
if,
at
any
point
a
resident
has
any
concerns
about
any
contact,
please
feel
free
to
reach
out
to
us.
We
soon
will
be
having
online
incident
reporting.
So
right
now,
if
somebody
still
say
your
front
license
plate
or
steals
your
bicycle,
we
you
do
have
to
contact
our
office,
so
we
can
take
a
report
in
the
future
here
at
the
end
of
the
year,
we're
hoping
you'll
be
able
to
go
online
and
fill
out
a
report
if
a
resident
would
like
to
to
do
that.
Q
We're
also
working
on
finalizing
our
customer
satisfaction
survey
cards.
So
when
a
deputy
responds
to
your
home
for
a
report
we'll
be
able
to
give
you
a
document
where
you
can
scan
the
qr
code
and
give
us
feedback,
we're
always
looking
to
improve
our
services,
we're
working
on
a
new
records
management
system,
as
well
as
the
new
computer,
aided
dispatch
system
which
will
come
online,
I'm
told
at
the
end
of
the
year
and
we're
hoping
that
this
will
give
us
more
data
points
and
be
able
to
increase
our
performance
out
in
the
field.
Q
And
the
last
thing
here
is
our
psychiatric
emergency
response
team.
Our
perk
team
has
been
working
since
january
of
this
past
year
last
year,
2021
and
they
have
been
extremely
invaluable
in
their
performance
investigating
crime
in
cupertino.
I
just
wanted
to
share
some
of
the
some
of
the
task
forces
and
groups
that
are
involved
investigating
crime,
any
crime
that
occurs
in
the
city
of
cupertino.
Q
We
do
have
patrol
deputies
that
are
out
there,
34
that
are
dedicated
to
the
city
of
cupertino
they're,
the
ones
that
respond
when
you
call
they're
the
ones
that
document
the
incident,
and
then
we
have
our
sheriff
detectives.
We
have
a
total
of
40
detectives
that
are
involved
in
investigating
prime
incretino.
Depending
on
what
it
is.
Q
We
have
experts
in
every
field,
including
our
homicide,
robbery
team,
and
then
we
have
a
deputy
assigned
to
the
northern
california
regional
intelligence
center,
and
this
is
important
because
there's
information
that
comes
down
from
both
the
federal
state
level
that
is
important
to
our
community,
and
so
we
are
always
connected
to
information,
the
regional
enforcement
allied
computer
team.
These
are
folks
that
are
involved
in
investigating
computer
related
crimes
like
intrusions
the
joint
terrorism
task
force.
Q
We
have
a
deputy
assigned
to
the
task
force
again
to
feed
information
into
our
division,
to
make
sure
that
we
take
measures
that
would
keep
our
residents
safe.
Then
we
have
a
regional,
auto
theft
task
force.
All
they
do
is
focus
on
cars
that
are
being
stolen
out
there,
just
to
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
our
psychiatric
emergency
response
team.
These
are
the
folks
that
dedicate
their
time
full
time
to
responding
to
residents
that
are
in
crisis.
Q
They
are
experts
in
de-escalation
tactics,
they're
experts
in
providing
resources
to
residents
and
they're
experts
in
taking
their
time
to
make
sure
that
the
residents
have
the
necessary
resources
really
to
be
able
to
to
take
care
of
themselves.
They
have
time
that
they
can
spend
with
residents
where
a
patrol
deputy
may
not
have
time,
because
it
may
be
another
call
that
he
or
she
has
to
go
to,
and
so
in
cupertino
excuse
me.
In
cupita
last
year
we
had
a
total
of
52
calls.
Q
44
referrals,
a
total
of
96
contacts.
Referrals
are
are
essentially
a
process
where
a
deputy
goes
to
a
call
and,
depending
on
that,
contact
is
able
to
evaluate
what's
going
on
and
then
provide
a
referral
to
the
protein
where
the
protein
then
goes
out,
say
the
next
day
or
at
a
time
it's
more
convenient
for
the
family.
Q
They
again
they've
been
extremely
extremely
valuable
to
us
in
making
sure
that
we
provide
residents
the
best
possible
service
out
there
and
community
programs
in
the
city.
We
have
several
programs
that
we're
involved
in.
We
have
our
community
and
teen
academy,
we'll
be
launching
that
again
here
this
summer,
because
of
kovan,
we
did
take
a
pause
on
that
we'll
have
two
this
summer,
and
this
is
essentially
a
12-week
program
one
evening
during
the
week,
and
we
take
time
to
really
show
us
to
show
you
what's
behind
that
door
right.
Q
What
makes
the
sheriff's
office
the
sheriff's
office
and
we
really
lower
that
current
and
show
your
operations
in
more
detail.
We
do
home
security
assessment.
So
if
residents
are,
you
know,
they're
trying
to
purchase,
say
a
new
home
security
system
and
you
want
a
deputy
to
come
out
and
give
you
an
an
assessment
on
your
home
on
the
exterior
things
that
we've
seen
that
can
potentially
mitigate
you
know
burglary.
We
can
certainly
do
that.
Our
deputies
are
trained
to
do
that.
We
offer
ride-alongs.
Q
However,
because
of
covid
we
put
a
little
pause
on
that
for
now
neighborhood
safety
presentations,
if
there's
a
neighborhood
out
there
that,
like
our
deputies
to
come
out
and
give
a
presentation
on
crime
happy
to
do
that,
we
look
forward
to
national
night
out
every
year.
This
is
a
photo
down
here.
Bottom
right
of
last
year's
event.
Q
We
strive
to
attend
every
community's
event
and
I
think
last
year
we
missed
a
couple,
but
we
bring
in
extra
staff
to
spend
time
with
with
residents,
and
then
we
have
station
tours
here.
Q
Folks
can
see
our
substation
and
see
how
we
work
and
the
things
that
we
do.
We
have
coffee
with
cop
events
again
because
of
covid.
We
pause
that,
but
we'll
be
bringing
that
back
up
here
in
a
couple
of
months.
We're
always
at
community
events,
so
please,
if
you
see
us
out
there,
please
let
us
know
how
we
can
improve
our
services
and
both
the
neighborhood
watch
program
and
the
block
beta
program.
We
can
certainly
spend
a
few
hours
talking
about
both
of
these
programs.
Q
What
I
will
say
is
that
we
support
both
programs
with
anything
and
everything
that
we
can
support
them
with,
including
attending
neighborhood
events
given
presentations.
The
neighborhood
watch
program
has
been
a
huge
part
of
our
success.
I
can't
speak
enough
about
it.
Q
Folks
that
are
involved
in
the
program
are
really
our
partners
in
making
sure
that
we
keep
cupertino
safe.
The
block
beetle
program
is
not
exactly
like
the
neighborhood
watch
program,
but
the
folks
that
are
part
of
this
program
share
a
lot
of
information,
and
one
of
the
things
we
know
is
the
sharing
information
keeps
us
engaged.
It's
an
extremely
valuable
program.
Q
Tom
chin,
the
emergency
manager
for
the
city
of
cupertino
manages
both
programs
and
again
we
could
talk
about
both
programs
for
the
next
hour
or
two.
But
if
folks
want
more
information
on
neighborhood
watch
program,
the
block
media
program,
please
please
you
could
always
call
me,
you
could
email,
oem
cupertino.org
to
get
more
information
and
get
involved.
Q
Lastly,
our
information
here
for
non-emergency
situations,
please
dial.
Q
Or
408-299-2311,
whatever
reason
you
can't
dial
9-1-1
and
speak
to
someone
you
could
text,
9-1-1
or
dispatchers
are
receiving
text
9-1-1
messages
any
tip
that
you
have
for
the
city
of
cupertino.
Please
email,
west
valley
tips
at
shf.
Here
it
is
wvp
tips
again:
neighborhood
watch
block
leader
program,
oem
cupertino.
Our
administrative
offices
are
located
here
in
cupertino
at
1601,
south
de
anza
boulevard.
Q
I
know
that's
a
lot
of
information.
I
thank
you
all
for
again
giving
me
a
time
to
discuss
some
of
these
crime
statistics
happy
to
answer
any
questions
you
may
have.
Thank
you.
A
Very
much
captain
urina
we'll
go
ahead
and
take
some
comments
from
members
of
the
public
at
this
point
just
want
to
have
everyone
understand
these.
A
These
are
under
ceremonial
matters
and
presentations,
although
this
is
just
an
extremely
important
topic
to
everyone,
so
we're
going
to
go
ahead
and
open
this
up
to
public
comment
at
this
point,
just
kind
of
keeping
in
mind
the
efficient
usage
of
our
time,
so
we'll
go
ahead
and
provide
three
minutes
for
members
of
the
public,
and
I
have
hands
raised
from
lisa
warren
and
peggy
griffin,
and
so
please
have
your
hand
raised
before.
Lisa
concludes
her
remarks
and
I
will
call
on
you
if
you
do
welcome
lisa.
H
Thank
you.
This
will
be
quick
captain.
I
have
a
couple
questions
one.
I
am
well
I'm
thrilled
with
the
pert
thing
and
it's
been
a
year,
so
you're
and
you're
feeling
good
about
it.
So
that's
great
and
I'm
assuming
it's
similar
to
cits,
maybe
better.
So
that's
sort
of
a
question
and
then
and
thank
you
for
the
presentation
too,
and
then
the
oh,
my
gosh.
I
had
an
important
question.
Oh
the
911.
H
Can
you
explain,
maybe
in
a
nutshell,
how
that
works?
If
you
are
only
able
to
text
911
without
any
details,
do
are
the
dispatchers
able
to
figure
out
where
you
are
what
you,
because
I
can
picture
someone
not
being
able
to
call
being
able
to
text
but
not
being
able
to
give
a
lengthy
detail
of
what's
going
on?
A
Great,
thank
you
very
much
lisa,
and
so
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
ask
the
sheriff's
captain
to
go
ahead
and
reserve
those
answers
and
answer
them
omnibus.
After
we
have
had
a
chance
to
hear
from
all
members
of
the
public,
peggy
griffin,
you're
next
followed
by
govind
t
and
govind.
You
are
the
last
hand
raised
peggy,
welcome.
I
Good
evening,
council
staff
and
thank
you
so
much
captain
urina
great
information.
I
have
three
questions,
one.
If
I
call
9-1-1
from
a
cell
phone,
does
it
know
exactly
where
I
am
or
like?
Is
it
within
a
cul-de-sac?
I
How
how
accurate
is
the
information
and
the
second
question
is
we
used
to
get
these
monthly
emails
or
postings
on
next
door
about
crime,
and
we
no
longer
get
that
so
I
was
wondering
what
happened
to
that
and
the
third
question
is:
if
our
son
got
a
ransomware
and
we
did
not
even
know
where
who
to
contact.
Do
we
contact
the
sheriff's
department?
I
We
knew
nothing
about
this
and
went
into
silence
for
a
week
anyway.
That's
all
I
have
thank
you.
A
Thank
you
peggy
and
now
we
have
govind
t
welcome
govind.
G
Good
evening
and
thank
you.
G
Near
the
council
and
the
staff,
I
have
only
one
question:
it's
maybe
what
kind
of
you
know
whatever
you
provide
services
in
terms
of
work
and
similar
psychological
psychiatric
related
thing?
Does
it
cover
schools
and
community
colleges?
That's
pretty
much
it.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you,
govind,
and
so
let's
go
ahead
and
bring
this
back
to
captain
arena
captain
did
you
track
questions
asked
by
lisa
as
well
as
peggy
and
govind?
Yes,
sir.
Q
So
so
the
first
question
was
the
pert
team.
Is
it
a
team?
That's
a
little
better
equipped
than
our
cit
deputies,
and
the
answer
to
that
question
is
they
are
every
deputy
that's
out
in
the
field
in
cupertino
is
trained
with
cit,
that's
critical
training
to
make
sure
that
we
can
de-escalate
situations
and
be
able
to
provide
the
resident
with
that
necessary
service.
Q
Q
You
could
type
in
your
message.
Hi.
I
need
assistance.
The
first
thing
that
the
dispatcher
is
going
to
do
is
respond.
Saying?
Can
you
call
9-1-1?
That's
the
first
thing
they're
going
to
ask
you
and
then,
if
you
can't
they'll,
say:
okay,
what's
your
emergency
and
you
can
certainly
communicate
through
that
text
message.
Q
Q
Q
We
don't
post
that
kind
of
information
frequently
on
next
door.
It
is
something
that
the
city
has
on
their
website,
so
I
would
encourage
folks
to
go
to
the
city
of
cupertino
website.
You
could
look
at
weekly
reports
there.
You
could
also
join
us
in
the
public
safety
commission.
We
talk
about
everything
that
we
discussed
today
and
more.
We
show
statistics.
Q
We
talk
about
response
times.
The
next
public
safety
commission
meeting
is
the
third
thursday
in
march,
which
I
believe
is
the
17th
of
march.
So
please
I'm
sorry,
the
second,
the
second
thursday
of
march.
So
please
join
us
for
that
meeting,
ransomware
issues.
So
if,
if
a
resident
has
ransomware
issues
or
any
issue
with
their
computer,
whether
it's
an
intrusion,
whether
somebody
hacked
into
your
computer,
to
steal
some
of
your
information,
absolutely
call
us
again,
we
do
have
experts,
they
can
help
us
in
this.
Q
We
want
to
know
what's
going
on
if
need
be,
we
certainly
will
share
it
with
our
federal
partners
to
make
sure
that
everyone's
aware
of
what's
happening,
that
is
critical
and
then
what
does
cover
the
psychiatric
registered
response
team
in
terms
of
whether
or
not
the
response
to
schools
colleges,
they
do
they
do,
and
so
what
I
would
ask
is,
if
you
have
questions
about
the
perk
team,
they
are
more
than
happy
to
answer
any
question
you
may
have:
if
there
is
a
crisis
at
a
local
school
or
a
college,
and
they
can
be
of
service,
they
will
be.
Q
I
can
tell
you
that
they
have
responded
to
a
college
here
nearby
to
provide
their
services
and
I
believe,
that's
all
the
questions.
A
Great,
thank
you
captain.
Okay,
so
let's
go
ahead.
You
know
in
the
interest
of
time
you
know
happy
to
you
know,
take
brief
follow-ups
from
council
if
we
wish
I'll
go
ahead
and
start
us
off,
so
captain
great
array
of
services,
you
know,
like
you
say
you
know,
we
could
pick
one
area
and
just
window
down
for
two
hours,
really
quick
question
in
terms
of
looking
at
the
demographic
makeup
of
cupertino.
A
Are
there
when
you're
looking
at
something
like
cit
or
port?
Are
there
specialized
language
services
available?
Do
you
reach
out
and
train
for
the
cultural
sensitivities
and
the
various
you
know?
Types
of
you
know
major
demographics
that
are
represented
in
our
city.
Q
Q
As
I
mentioned,
there
are
cit
courses,
there's
our
procedural
justice
type
courses,
and
so
every
month
there
is
a
10
hour,
training
block,
that's
built
into
our
deputies,
and
so
our
deputies
attend
training
every
single
month
on
anything
and
everything
that
can
help
us
do
our
job
better,
there's
a
lot
of
legal
requirements
that
have
come
down
from
the
legislators
in
the
last
few
years
that
have
added
to
our
training,
and
it
is
something
that
our
staff
really
look
forward
to
the
training
aspect
of
it.
A
Okay,
well,
thank
you
very
much
for
that
and
I'll
just
wrap
up
my
my
comment
along
with
that
question.
If
there's
anything
that
we
can
be
doing
to
help,
you
know
fortify
that
partnership
I
mean
especially
as
regards
to
this
question.
You
know
anything
we
can
do
to
keep
those
lines
of
communication
open.
A
Please
let
us
know
I
mean.
I
think
this
is
a
community
that
you
can.
Obviously
you
know
work
with
and
would
like
to.
You
know
enhance
the
services
wherever
it
can.
So
you
know
no,
no
aspersions
anywhere.
I
think
there
are
just
opportunities
to
you,
know
kind
of
keep
those
lines
of
communications
going
strong,
okay,
so
great,
let's
go
to
vice
merchant.
J
Hello
hi
two
questions:
first,
how
about
phone
scams?
Are
there
a
lot
of
them?
What
people
should
do
if
they
feel
they
might
have
gotten
these
kind
of
phone
calls?
A
second
is
a
neighborhood
watch
program.
It's
going
to
hear
that
it's
essential,
but
I
have
heard
that
oftentimes,
a
neighborhood
get
a
designation
as
neighborhood
watch
program
because
enough
people
sign
up
and
then
nothing
happened.
I'm
guessing
some
neighborhoods
are
more
active
and
some
are
not.
So
what's
your
recommendation
for
people?
Thank
you.
Q
Yeah,
so
vice
mayor
child.
Thank
you
for
those
two
questions.
The
first
question
I
believe
you
asked
about
robo
calls.
Q
So
so
yeah
we
have
seen
an
explosion
in
in
scams
related
to
phone
calls
right
and
so
yeah
right.
What
we
recommend
folks
do
is
is,
if
you
don't
recognize
that
number
don't
answer
it
and
if
somebody
on
the
other
line
is
trying
to
ask
for
assuming
you
answer
it,
and
somebody
on
the
other
line
is
asking
for
anything
personal,
whether
it's
your
name,
your
location,
you
know
what
kind
of
car
you
drive.
Q
Q
We
can
look
into
that
phone
number
that
called
you
oftentimes.
It's
a
phone
number
that's
overseas
and
it's
hard
for
us
to
investigate,
but
at
the
very
least
we
could
at
least
document
the
incident,
so
we
can
follow
up
on
it
in
regards
to
the
neighborhood
watch
program.
I
know
tom
chin,
our
emergency
managers
here
I
don't
know
if
tom
you'd
like
to
answer
that
question
for
license
right
now.
Welcome
donna.
R
R
If
you
find
that
if
any
neighborhood
neighborhoods
in
the
city
find
that
they're
either
designated
as
neighborhood
watch
or
and
things
aren't
happening
at
the
rate
that
they'd
like
you're,
more
than
welcome
to
reach
out
to
the
city,
either
directly
to
me
or
to
and
probably
easiest
is
oem
cupertino.org
we'll
be
happy
to
arrange
a
neighborhood
watch
meeting
and
really
revitalize
that
program
in
your
community.
R
A
Great
to
hear
okay
great
vice
michelle,
I'm
going
to
go
on
to
kel's
boy.
A
And
then
we
have
councilmember
willie
after
councilman.
K
Thank
you
mayor
charles
thank
you,
mayor,
paul
and,
and
you
know,
captain
arena.
I
have
the
pleasure
of
listening
to
you
at
the
legislative
committee
meeting
at
the
chamber
for
the
commercial
crime,
so
this
is
very
interesting
to
hear
about
your
report
on
our
all
the
crimes
in
cupertino
and
thank
you.
I
have
two
questions
for
you.
One
is
is
this:
these
statistics
are
just
for
cupertino
if
it
happens
in
west
san
jose
on
vienza
boulevard.
Do
you
include
that
in
your
statistics?
That's
my
first
question.
K
Q
Councilmember
way,
thank
you
for
those
two
questions.
The
first
question.
The
statistics
that
I
shared
this
evening
are
specific
to
the
city
of
cupertino
there
they
are
city
of
cupertino
statistics,
so
it
wouldn't
include
saratoga,
west
san
jose
we're
really
just
focusing
on
the
city
of
cupertino
statistics.
Q
The
second
question
in
regards
to
having
some
tech,
savvy
residents,
no
doubt
and
so
to
answer
your
question.
The
the
data
that
we
share
is
granular
data.
We
have
an
analyst
that
comes
through
all
our
reports
to
look
at
all
these
details
and
really
gets
down
to.
What
are
we
looking
at?
What
was
this
crime
classified
at
as
and
then
puts
that
report
together,
and
so
you
will
not
see
data
like
what
I
presented
to
you
yeah
anywhere
else.
Q
Again
we
have
an
analyst
that
spends
40
hours
a
week,
looking
at
all
these
reports,
and
so
that's
why
you
have
the
data
that
you
have
crime
reports,
dot
com,
I
think
it's
called
city
protect,
may
not
classify
the
crimes.
The
way
that
we
do
here,
they're
looking
at
a
broader
sense,
I'll,
give
you
a
quick
example.
Q
We
may
get
dispatched
to
a
residential
burglary
and
then,
when
we
get
there
find
out
that
you
know
the
the
homeowners
just
left
the
front
door
open
and
there
was
no
crime,
that's
common.
Q
However,
if
you
look
at
crime
reports
or
city
cityprotect.com
it'll
say
it
was
a
burglary
when
in
reality
it
wasn't,
it
was
dispatched
as
a
burglary,
but
it
wasn't
important.
D
Thank
you
councilman.
Next
we
have
councilmember
wooley
yeah,
captain
urana
great
great
presentation.
Thank
you
I'll
kind
of
touch
on
a
question.
We've
got
a
fairly
good
size,
senior
population
in
cupertino,
great
that
we've
got
your
your
deputies,
protecting.
You
know
the
community.
D
The
question
slash
comment,
you
know
not
too
many
are
attending.
You
know
tonight
and
hearing
what's
available
and
connecting
perhaps
it's
because
city
council
meetings
aren't
very
entertaining
but
regardless
how
about
periodic
stops
over
at
the
senior
center,
especially
with
it
you
know
kind
of
hopefully
opening
back
up.
D
I
think
from
so
many
seniors
that
don't
have
family
members
nearby
they're
kind
of
without
a
lot
of
comfort,
but
if
they
were
to
see
your
deputies
drop
by
once
every
month
or
once
every
couple
months
and
interact,
I
think
they'd
be
much
more
comfortable.
D
Q
Q
I
know
our
our
patrol
deputies
stopped
by
at
senior
center
once
in
a
while.
Certainly
they
could
stop
by
more
frequently.
I
think
that
that's
a
really
good
recommendation,
certainly
something
I'll
pass
on
to
my
staff,
but
happy
to
to
set
something
up
with
the
senior
center
on
a
presentation
in
the
future.
B
All
right,
thank
you,
mayor
paul
and
thank
you
captain
uriana.
This
is
a
great
report.
I
I'm
so
glad
that
it
was
presented.
There
was
a
question
from
the
public
and
I'm
not
sure
if
it
was
answered
asking
about
the
the
weekly
activity
summary
that
used
to
be
on
nextdoor.
B
That's
you
can
find
it
under
a
cupertino
items
of
interest
in
the
attachments
it's
it
still
is
being
presented,
but
that
gives
you
the
actual
activity
information,
but
I
think
I
think,
for
most
people
this.
This
type
of
report
showing
us
the
trends
is,
is
exactly
what
what
we're
looking
for
I'd.
I
think
I
might
have
spoken
to
you
about
that.
B
1603
is
proposing
to
drop
that
threshold
down
to
400
dollars,
so
it
used
to
be
450,
they
increased
it
to
950
and
now
they're,
considering
dropping
it
to
400,
and
I
was
just
wondering
if
you
could
speak
about
what
your
experiences
have
been
your
opinions
about
what
happened
after
they
increased
it
to
9.50.
Thank
you.
Q
Yes,
and
thank
you
for
that
that
question
councilmember
moore
so
back
in,
I
believe,
was
november
2014
proposition
47
was
passed
by
the
voters.
What
that
did
is
it
did
increase
the
threshold
for
grand
theft
and
other
crimes
that
are
related
to
property
and
what
we
did
see
shortly
after
that
was
when
we
were
capturing
some
of
these
thieves
that
were
stealing
things
that
were
worth.
I
don't
know
six
seven,
eight
hundred
dollars.
You
know
we
can
no
longer
take
them
into
custody.
Q
Instead,
we
had
to
issue
them
citations
and
then
let
them
go
on
their
way.
I
don't
have
data
in
terms
of
how
proposition
47
has
affected
public
safety.
I
will
say,
though,
from
a
local
level
in
the
past
before
prop
47
deputies
would
be
able
to
take
folks
into
custody,
take
them
to
jail,
even
if
they
would
be
sighted
out
from
the
jail.
You
know
many
hours
later,
maybe
the
next
day
it
did.
It
did
separate.
Q
You
know
the
thieves,
the
crooks
from
the
area,
and
what
we
know
is
that
that
that
did
help.
Unfortunately,
we
have
arrested
caught
the
same
thieves
several
times
in
cupertino
and
again.
Q
If
we
were
able
to
separate
the
person
taken
to
jail
taking
their
custody,
then
we
would
remove
the
problem
from
the
city,
and
so,
though
I
don't
have
any
against
statistical
data,
I
will
say
that
I
will
leave
it
to
the
legislators
to
make
that
decision.
Whatever
laws
are
in
place,
we
certainly
will
enforce
those
laws.
A
Thank
you
very
much
captain.
Thank
you,
councilman
moore
and
thank
you
public,
as
well
as
the
other
council
members
for
your
excellent
insights
and
questions,
and
so
we
will
go
on
after
a
break.
Let's
go
ahead
and
break
until
let's
say
six
minutes
at
7
52.
We
will
reconvene
and
we'll
continue
with
the
agenda.
At
that
point,
all
right
we'll
see
you
then.
