There's
no
postponement
so
we're
on
to
oral
Communications.
This
portion
of
the
meeting
is
reserved
for
persons
wishing
to
address
the
commission
on
any
matter
within
our
jurisdiction,
but
is
not
on
the
agenda.
You're
limited
to
three
minutes.
In
most
cases,
state
law
will
prohibit
the
commission
for
making
any
decisions
with
respect
to
a
matter
not
on
the
agenda.
F
Thank
you,
chair,
Scharf,
happy
holidays.
Everyone
I
just
wanted
to
talk
tonight
a
little
bit
about
some
of
our
historic
homes
in
Cupertino
that
need
to
be
protected.
If,
as
you
all
are
aware,
the
graves
how
the
1868
Graves
house
was
a
victim
of
a
fire
about
a
week
and
a
half
ago,
there
are
a
lot
of
really
really
encouraging
activities
by
San
Jose
preservation.
Action
committee,
which
I
am
a
member
of
to
try
to
move
the
parts
of
the
house
that
are
still
intact.
Kelly
Park,
very,
very
encouraged
about
this.
F
F
Also,
we
have
the
ring
stockelmeyer
house,
which
is
near
Blackberry
Farm,
and
this
is
I
believe
a
1900
Farmhouse
I
was
at
the
park
and
rec
meeting
where
they
had
had
a
discussion.
They'd
actually
hired
a
historian
to
go
over
the
architecture
to
find
out
how
old
it
was.
I
actually
have
been
at
a
San,
Jose
City
council
meeting,
where
they
went
over
one
of
the
properties
there
to
determine
how
you
determine
how
old
a
home
is
absolutely
fascinating.
F
We
need
to
honor
this
person
if,
if,
if
San
Jose's
historical
group
can
do
this,
we
can
do
it.
Los
Altos
has
the
doctor's
home
that
is
preserved
at
the
history
house
took
a
long
time,
but
it's
1900,
and
then
they
have
their
lovely
History
Museum
there.
We
can
do
it
too.
It's
time.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
C
Hi,
thank
you.
I
had
trouble
getting
on,
I
have
a
new
laptop
and
I
could
not
connect
so
I
just
want
I
noticed
on
Geo
Tracker
that
there's
some
new
activity.
We've
now
got
the
east
side
of
the
Valco
site
being
discussed
on
geotrucker,
and
there
is
something
related
to
the
marketplace
and
I'm
assuming
it's
dry.
It's
dry,
cleaner
issues,
wondering
why
that
is
happening.
C
You
know,
we've
got
dry
cleaners
on
a
lot
of
the
sites
that
well
old,
dry
cleaners
on
a
lot
of
the
sites
around
the
city,
some
that
are
being
considered
potentially
for
housing
element
and
I.
Just
guess,
I
want
to
remind
Planning,
Commission
and
I
guess,
city
council
as
well,
but
they're
not
here
that
a
priority
is
and
a
duty
from
the
city
council
I
assumed
for
Planning
Commission
is
to
protect
the
health
and
safety
of
residents.
So
I
just
hope.
People
are
keeping
track
of
what
is
going
on.
C
There
were
some
issues
in
Saratoga
that
are
sort
of
ongoing
again
with
the
dry,
cleaner
and
other
places.
Also
I
just
am
more
familiar
with
Saratoga
right
now
so
I.
At
this
point.
That's
about
all
I
can
say
because
I
was
trying
so
hard
to
get
out
of
this
meeting.
I
wasn't
able
to
figure
out
what
to
say
so.
That's
it
thanks.
B
Okay,
thank
you.
Lisa
I
do
not
see
any
other
hands
raised
for
oral
Communications,
so
we
are
on
to
the
next
agenda
item
one
second,
there
Okay.
So
we
are
on
to
new
business,
and
this
is
the
2022
review
of
the
general
plan
annual
report
implementation
plan
and
we
will
provide
Direction
on
the
general
plan
annual
report
and
implementation
plan.
B
Now
this
is
a
big
task.
I
recall
previous
years.
This
is
not
normally
done
in
just
one
meeting
I
think
Ray
can
comment
when
he
was
chair
of
the
Planning
Commission
I
think
you
guys
took
four
meetings
to
go
through
this,
but
anyway,
Let's
Let's
start
with
the
staff
report
who
will
be
presenting
that
pew.
H
Good
evening,
Planning
Commission,
thank
you,
chair,
Scharf
I.
There
is
a
very
short
presentation
with
regard
to
this
project.
This
is
a
a
task.
That's
the
state
mandates
that
the
city
conduct
every
year
with
regard
to
giving
updates
on
the
different
activities
or
policies
and
programs
that
the
city
has
in
its
General
plan
and
with
the
report,
the
drought
in
draft
form
has
been
presented
to
the
Planning
Commission
with
the
agenda
packet,
and
we
can
go
through
that
I'm
happy
to
pull
up
the
the
PDF
and
we
can
go
through
the
edits.
H
I
have
attempted
to
make
those
edits,
be
a
parent
with
the
strikethroughs
in
underline
in
the
document,
and
these
are
just
edits
that
reflect
activity
in
the
year
2022.
With
regard
to
the
programs
and
policies
that
are
in
the
general
plan
and
again,
you
know
once
the
Planning
Commission
is
complete
with
its
review,
this
will
be
presented
to
the
city
council.
State
law
requires
us
to
present
this
to
the
legislative
body
in
the
city,
and
so
we
will
be
doing
that
prior
to
April
1st
of
next
year.
B
A
H
Knows
I'm
happy
to
do
that,
so
there
are
many
policies
and
programs
that
are
just
ongoing
things
that
you
know,
staff
implements
through
either
the
municipal
code
or
through
ongoing
operational
activity.
Those
are
reflected
in
Gray.
Those
are
reflected
as
not
being
action
items
or
actionable
items
in
the
sense
that.
A
H
H
And
then
there
are
some
action
items
in
green
which
are
basically
action,
items
that
have
already
been
completed.
For
example,
public
art
ordinance,
there's
a
a
request
or
a
directive
to
maintain
and
update
an
ordinance
requiring
public
art
in
a
private
and
public
developments,
and
so
that
ordinance
was
updated,
updated
in
2018.
So
that's
reflected
in
green
and
finally
things
where
we
have
not
received
direction
from
Council
or
money
from
Council
to
implement
any
programs.
H
Those
are
reflected
in
Orange,
so
that's
the
the
color
scheme
of
of
this
particular
report
and
then
I
will
also
point
out.
There
are
time
frames
that
are
indicated
just
to
say
you
know,
especially
the
ones
that
are
not
action
items
but
are
just
done
on
a
regular
operational
basis.
Those
are
continual,
there's
a
long
range
time
frame
which
is
basically
looking
forward.
H
D
Were
just
one
comment
on
the
time
frame,
it
might
make
sense
to
put
the
last
update
happened
in
at
least
in
the
year
year
year,
wise
and
also,
if
it
is
possible
to
categorize
it
it's
short-term,
medium
term
or
long
term,
because
I
see
that
somewhere
comments
are
made
a
section.
It
is
mentioned
that
it
will
continue
for
many
years,
which
is
kind
of
very
subjective.
Type
type
of
a
statement
doesn't
give
a
clue.
H
No
I,
don't
I
mean
if
the
entire
commission
does
wish
to
tackle
that
issue.
You
know
or
wish
to
provide
that
direction.
You
know
we'll
we'll
look
at
that
in
many
I'm,
not
exactly
sure.
If
I
could
get
an
example
of
what
the
many
years
of
reference
is,
you
know
I
could
kind
of
take
a
stab
at
it
in
in
most
cases,
for
example,
you
know
maintaining
and
updating
the
development
allocation
table.
H
B
H
H
B
H
So,
on
the
first
page,
if
I
may
go
through
this,
there
are
just
changes
in
the
second
row
there,
basically
to
reflect
that
there
are
no
changes
to
development
allocations
that
women
aren't
made
in
the
year.
2022
I
will
point
out
that
rule
4
will
be
updated
with
the
remaining
allocations.
Once
we've
closed
out
the
year.
H
Actually,
only
6.8
has
been
amended
this
year.
I
actually
have
to
take
off
the
building
in
6.7
that
was
from
last
year,
but
in
6.8
there's
a
update
from
the
public
parks
and
rec
commission
from
the
parks
and
rec
staff
that
the
arts
and
culture
commission
has
reviewed
two
public
art
projects
in
2022,
and
it
continues
to
implement
their
programs,
such
as
their
distinguished
artists,
emerging
artists
and
Young
artist,
Awards,
and
also
continuing
to
support
their
art
in
unexpected
places
program
that
they
have.
H
The
next
update
is
not
until
policy
strategy
lu12.1.2,
where
there's
just
a
node
been
added.
There
is
a
the
general
plan
policy
calls
for
application
of
a
slope
density
formula
for
properties
that
are
particularly
Steep
and
those
densities
are
based
on
a
certain
formula
that
are
embedded
in
the
general
plan.
H
I
H
Correct
it
is
basically
yeah,
it's
just
subject
to
sb9,
so
whatever
the
standards
that
the
city
adopted
related
to
sb9,
it
would
be
subject
to
that.
So
essentially
it
did
regard
so,
for
example,
if
you
look
at
strategy
12
lu12.1.2,
it
does
establish
slope
density
formally,
however,
because
of
sb9
it
basically
doubles
the
density.
You
know
you
basically
have
two
homes
on
every
lot.
Potentially,
however,
the
size
and
the
all
the
other
standards
are
in
the
sb9
ordinance.
H
B
H
Sure
I
did
want
to
know
that
the
library
Pro
Expansion
Project
was
constructed
in
2021,
so
that
is
an
update
is
completed.
Now,
let's
see
our
next
update
is
in
the
in
the
Housing
section.
Actually
there
are
a
couple
of
updates
in
the
Housing
section
so
policy
he
1.1.
There
was
just
a
note
to
me
that
the
we
are
now
looking
at
the
housing
element
to
accommodate
our
sixth
cycle
Arena
and
we're
expecting
that
this
would
be
completed
sometime
by
the
fall
of
2023.
H
H
There
was
a
modification
at
the
of
the
velco
SB
35
project,
and
that
is
noted
in
for
policy
HD
2.2
there
were
updates
to
the
numbers
of
very
low
and
low
income
units
there
is.
We
did
want
to
note
that
there
is
a
RFP
that
was
issued
for
development
of
the
Mary
Avenue
site.
We
do
have
one
response.
It
is
being
reviewed
at
this
point
and
once
that
is
reviewed,
we'll
make
a
decision
on
and
we'll
take
that
recommendation
to
city
council
with
regard
to
how
the
the
project
might
proceed.
H
It
is
a
I
I,
don't
have
the
full
particulars
chesharf.
However,
I
do
believe
it
is
the
party
that
was
very
interested
in
developing
that
site
and
I
think
it
is
a
a
joint
effort
by
I
think
it's
Charities
housing
and
housing
choices,
I
think
in
in
concert
with
the
possibly
the
rotary
and
I
I'm
I'm
I
I
wish
I
could
give
you
more
particulars.
I
just
don't
know
them
all
right
now
off
the
top
of
my
head.
Okay,.
H
Again,
like
I
mentioned,
not
all
the
housing
element
strategies
have
been
updated,
so
I'm
moving
on
past
these
here
moving
into
the
Mobility
section
of
element,
we
do
have
some
suggestions
from
environmental
program
staff
to
modify
existing
General
plan
language
to
add
reference
to
Green
Storm
water
infrastructure.
There
is
a
big
push
from
the
state
level
and
from
our
Municipal
Regional.
B
H
A
D
D
H
This
is
something
that
we
have
to
state
law
prohibits
the
city
from
evaluating
levels
of
service
with
under
SQL,
and
so
under
SQL.
We
do
have
to
validate
projects
under
a
metric
that
is
called
VMT,
which
is
Vehicles
vehicle
miles
traveled
and
the
city
does
have
thresholds
that
it
has
adopted
related
to
vehicle
miles
traveled.
H
H
However,
again
I
did
want
to
emphasize
that
state
law
prohibits
us
from
looking
at
that
from
a
SQL
perspective,
and
so
we
have
to.
We
have
to
evaluate
our
loss
standards
in
the
general
plan
in
terms
of
the
VMT
impact,
so
that
we
can
be
consistent
with
state
law.
So,
while
our
general
plan
has
these
standards,
we
still
have
to
balance
that
against
how
VMT
what
the
vmts
impact
in
order
in
order
to
be
consistent
with
state
law.
Okay,.
B
G
G
Up
just
just
to
be
clear
for
the
general
public
paying
attention
level
of
service
is
what
you
feel
in
terms
of
how
much
traffic
flow
it
is
for
you
waiting
for
a
traffic
light
or
for
traffic.
That's
there
and
VMT
is
really
about
how
many
miles
are
traveled
for
commute,
so
they're,
two
different
things
and
so
I
do
encourage
just
so.
People
are
paying
attention
that
LS
is
the
one
that
matters
to
you,
because
that's
how
long
it
takes
for
you
to
wait
in
traffic.
H
Moving
on
to
we,
we
do
have
good
news
with
regard
to
Local
transportation
services,
so
policy
m-4.2
did
want
to
know
that
the
city
received
a
eight
and
a
half
million
dollar
Grant
in
partnership
with
Santa
Clara,
the
City
of
Santa
Clara,
to
expand
and
operate
the
city's
via
service
for
five
years.
So
there
are
updates
related
to
that
in
this
document.
D
I
I
have
a
question
on
in
general:
I,
don't
know
where
it
falls
here
on
your
major
intersections,
where
let's
say
Stevens,
Creek,
De,
Anza
or
world
for
Steven's
Creek
or
one
of
the.
Where
is
that
measurements
of
the
air
quality
Matrix
is
done
and
recorded
somewhere
on
a
sub
website,
or
is
it
recorded
daily,
weekly
monthly
yearly
I,
don't
know
I
mean?
Where
can
you
get
that
information.
H
H
However,
I
understand
that
the
air
quality
it
is
measured
by
carb,
which
is
the
California
air
quality
regional
board,
and
they
they
basically
or
rather
it's
Batman,
which
is
the
Bay
Area
Air
Quality
Management
District
that
actually
measures
and
manages
air
quality
data
and
information
and
they're
the
ones
that
have
monitoring
stations
Etc.
However,
I
will
have
to
look
into
it
more
to
get
an
answer
to
you
on
that,
commissioner,
good.
H
With
regard
to
moving
on
to
environmental
and
sustainability,
we
have
in
this
in
August
2022
the
city
adopted
its
climate
action
plan,
2.0,
which
targets
having
the
city
be
carbon
neutral
by
2040
or
earlier.
So
there
were
checklists
and
other
things
that
were
developed
to
make
sure
that
projects
and
other
anything
development
related
would
align
compliance
with
the
city's
ghg
goals
and
reduction
plan.
So
there
are
updates
made
to
the
environmental,
sustainable
sustainability
section.
Regarding
that.
H
See
there
are
there
is
there
are
requirements
in
the
general
plan
with
regard
to
reviewing
and
Reporting
on
the
effectiveness
of
the
measures
in
the
cap
and
those
are
reported
to
the
sustainability
commission,
which
annually
reports
to
the
city
council
on
those
we
also
have
related
to
conservation
and
efficient
use
of
energy
resources.
Again
we
have
local
amendments
to
the
California
energy
code,
which
basically
make
sure
that
we
are
as
green
as
we
can
be
with
with
our
local
amendments
to
these
areas.
H
H
Let's
see
next
update
is
related
to
incentive
programs
for
projects
that
exceed
the
mandatory
requirements
and
promote
incentives
from
state
and
local
Federal
governments
for
improving
Energy
Efficiency
and
in
2022.
The
state
and
federal
governments
have
committed
significant
resources
and
basically
sustainability
division
is
working
to
increase
capacity
and
awareness
so
that
all
departments,
other
resources
needed
to
access
these
funds
there's
another
reference
to
the
cap,
which
calls
an
action
to
create
an
urban
canopy
management
plan
that
that
has
not
been
that
work
has
not
been
completed.
H
H
H
H
D
F
H
H
So
we
do
have
a
line
up
until
the
intersection
of
Homestead
and
wolf
in
order
to
bring
that
further
into
the
city
there
have
to
be,
there
has
to
either
be
an
infrastructure
investment
from
the
city
itself
or
in
partnership
with
developers
to
have
that
water
line
come
down
so
that
we
can
actually
benefit
from
use
of
the
Recycled
water.
However,
until
such
time
that
we're
kind
of
that's
the
limit
right
now
is
the
Apple
campus
itself.
D
H
Of
I'm
not
entirely
sure
how
the
charging
works
on
it.
I
unders,
I
I
do
know
that
the
the
water
district
is
very
interested
and
in
encouraging
the
use
of
recycled
water.
My
understanding
is
that
they
wish
to
have
the
Recycled
water
line
pulled
all
the
way
down
to
their
percolation
ponds
in
South,
San,
Jose
in
Almaden
and
so
and
in
other
places,
and
so
they
basically
want
that
water
line
to
be
extended.
H
H
H
H
There's
under
the
policies
related
to
water
conservation,
you
know
it's
been
noted
that
the
drought
emergency
continues
in
2022
and
we're
basically
an
all
City
facilities
and
Parks.
We
have
been
enacting
water
usage
restrictions
again
related.
Similarly,
on
the
same
vein,
we
in
2022
the
city
sent
postcards
to
all
commercial
and
multi-family
Property,
Owners,
notifying
them
about
the
Statewide
restriction
on
watering
non-functional
turf
grass,
because
that's
what
the
state
required
as
it
was
a
requirement
from
the
state
to
make
sure
that
that
doesn't
happen
in
2021.
H
Rainwater,
harvesting
and
gray
use
is
my
understanding.
The
sustainability
division
is
concluding
a
pilot
program
which
provides
direct
technical
assistance
to
promote
rainwater
harvesting
in
gray
water
use.
This
program
will
be
brought
to
the
council
in
the
next
year
to
consider
continuing
Beyond
this
pilot
program
phase
again
a
reference
to
the
drought,
awareness
and
conservation
efforts.
H
There
is
a
reference
to
Green
business
certification.
One
of
the
strategies
is
to
make
sure
that
the
city's
facilities
continue
to
be
a
green
business.
Certified
the
city
in
2022
did
go
through
the
process
of
recertifying
its
real
estate
portfolio
and
is
planning
for
additional
ways
to
promote
this
program
for
businesses
in
Cupertino
as
well.
This
is
a
partnership
between
the
Economic
Development
Division
sustainability
and
the
county
of
Santa
Clara.
A
H
Just
a
clarifying
comment
with
regard
to
Solid
Waste
diversion
this
is
in
the
infrastructure
element
essentially
to
meet
or
exceed
federal,
state
or
Regional
requirements
for
solid
waste
aversion.
We
have
local
diversion
requirements
and
those
are
captured
in
both
our
franchised
hauling
agreement
and
in
the
municipal
code.
So,
for
example,
if
you
were
to
demo
your
house
or
a
portion
of
your
house,
you
do
have
to
indicate
where
that
material
was
disposed
of,
because
that
particular
franchisee
would
then
determine
how
much
of
it
was
diverted.
H
H
B
Okay,
yeah:
let's
put
that
into
our
minutes
to
ensure
that
that
gets
and
I
have
another
I
didn't
see
anything
regarding
health
and
safety.
Are
there
no
changes
to
health
and
safety?
Specifically,
you
know
we're
all
aware
of
the
situation
with
hazardous
materials
at
the
Valco
site,
and
now
that's
one
of
the
members
of
the
public
mentioned.
B
H
H
B
H
G
I
think
what
we're
seeing
here
is
a
specific
increase
in
sites
that
used
to
be
dry
cleaners,
which
have
leaked
into
other
properties
and
I.
Think
maybe
there
is,
when
the
appropriate
moment
is
to
add
something.
We
probably
need
to
be
a
little
bit
more
careful
in
understanding
what
type
of
Hazard
contaminations
are
on
site
or
in
soil
and
a
way
to
inform
the
public.
You
know
what
is
the
policy
today
that
actually
reflects
something
like
that
or
reflects
something
as
to
what
was
discovered
on
the
Valco
site
like
how
do
we?
H
We
actually
have
a
chapter
17.04
that
was
adopted
and
we
basically
again
I
I
I,
would
not
I
would
refrain
from
referencing
specific
projects.
However,
the
city
does
have
requirements
in
place
that
basically
say
that
if
you
do
have
you
have
to
do
these
certain
kinds
of
studies,
and
if
those
studies
reflect
that
you
are
over
the
threshold
which
is
established
by
state
agencies
and
other
department
other
agencies,
then
you
have
to
go
into
site
cleanup.
So
once
that
site
cleanup
occurs,
that's
when
you
could
proceed
with
construction.
H
More
and
more
because
projects
are
becoming
exempt
from
sequa
the
standard
that
I'm
talking
about
actually
applies
to
any
project,
whether
SQL
applies
or
not.
Once
you
come
in
the
door
and
if,
if
the
study
is
fine,
that
your
soil
is
contaminated
or
I
contaminated
I
use
it
very
Loosely
that
it
exceeds
the
thresholds
that
are
established
by
state
agencies
or
other
agencies
that
govern
that
kind
of
contamination.
Then
you
basically
have
to
clean
up
the
soil.
That's
just
a
requirement.
It
doesn't
sequel,
doesn't
matter
at
that
point.
G
That's
a
great
Point,
the
the
question
related
to
that
is.
How
do
we
warn
residents
when
something
like
that
has
happened?
We
have
things
in
Geo
Tracker
and
some
people
look
at
it
more
than
others
and
other
than
that
we
don't
inform
residents
when
something
like
that
occurs.
Is
there
a
policy
somewhere
that
addresses
that.
H
H
And
it
it's
all
over
the
valley,
I
mean
if
you
go
through,
we
we
do
site
clean
up
in
some
cases.
You
know
before
even
the
city
finds
out,
you
know
the
the
maybe
DH
has
a
complaint
or
something
and
they
go
through
site.
Cleanup
voluntarily
and
I
see
that
City
assistant,
City
attorney
Wu
has
those
memories.
J
B
F
Thank
you
chair.
Thank
you,
Pew,
for
a
very,
very
concise
travel
through
the
universe
of
the
this
big
document,
I'm
glad
to
say
that
there
is
a
section
on
the
historic
preservation
in
there.
I
think
it's
Lu
6.2
I
may
have
that
in
the
wrong
section
and
there
from
the
properties
that
I
had
mentioned,
that
were
the
historic
homes
in
Cupertino,
I
I
think
that
we
could
certainly
look
at
how
we
can
address
moving
forward
with
these
two
homes.
What
is
our
plan?
F
Williamsburg
was
rebuilt
from
the
ground
up
by
the
Rockefeller
family
in
the
1920s
in
Virginia
it
was
a
former
capital
before
Richmond
it
was
the
Revolutionary
War
Capital
I'm,
sorry,
it
was
pre.
It
was
when
the
British
controlled
the
Eastern
seaboard,
but
we
we
have
these
two
historic
gyms
here
and
we
need
to
start
moving
forward
with
setting
them
up
as
historic,
Laboratories
learning
sites.
F
History
is
something
that
you
learn
from,
and
I
think
that
it's
very
important
that
we
address
our
assets
that
we
have
in
the
city
that
are
the
historics
and
certainly
Danza
college,
has
the
Petit
Trion,
which
was
built
about
the
same
time.
So
I
think
that
that's
very
exciting
the
part
about
the
contamination.
If
you
all
are
not
aware,
the
military
at
Fort
Ord
are
moving
forward
with
the
plan
to
address
the
groundwater
contamination,
such
as
happened
at
Camp
Lejeune.
F
My
mother
and
my
sister-in-law
in
Modesto
are
actually
plaintiffs
in
the
Fort
Ord
because
of
my
brother
and
another
family
relative
who
may
have
past
because
of
contamination
from
this
site.
I
think
that
it's
very
important
that,
as
we
understand
that
there
are
leakages
coming
out
of
businesses,
it's
not
the
business's
fault.
There
are
things
that
happen.
F
We
need
to
make
sure
that
the
public
is
aware
of
this
type
of
a
situation.
It's
nobody's
fault,
it's
just
something.
That's
happening.
Groundwater
moves:
it's
like
a
river
under
underneath
the
soil,
and
if
we're
having
issues
in
our
city
in
our
counties
Etc,
then
we
need
to
make
sure
that
people
are
aware
of
that.
Hopefully
it
can
be
cleaned
up
at
some
point,
but
there
are
some
sites,
maybe
not
in
Cupertino,
but
in
other
areas
where
you
cannot
have
housing
on
it,
you
just
have
businesses
Etc.
Thank
you.
F
C
Chapter
7
health
and
safety
I
just
want
to
read
the
introduction
says:
Community,
Health
and
Public
Safety
responsibilities
have
to
evolve
to
address
the
community's
growth
and
changing
needs.
The
city
is
committed
to
maintaining
a
high
level
of
preparedness
to
protect
the
community
from
risks
of
to
Life
Property,
the
environment
associated
with
both
natural
and
human-caused
disasters
and
Hazards.
C
C
I
I,
just
can't
emphasize
that
enough
and
I
did
have
one
comment
on
public
art.
I
know
in
the
past,
public
art
has
been
basically
deferred
because
it
wasn't.
This
was
for
the
storage
units.
There
was
no
real
need
or
a
good
place
for
public
art,
and
there
was
a
big
amount
of
money
that
was
allocated
to
that
site
and
the
at
the
time
Fine
Arts
Commission.
That
was
our
title
waived.
That
and
my
question
during
that
meeting
was
okay.
C
D
D
B
B
Yeah,
when
I
was
on
city
council
I'd
met
with
Bill
Phil
Mitchell,
along
with
several
different
companies
regarding
the
smart
sensors,
smart
traffic
lights,
all
that
stuff
and
I
believe
it
is
moving
forward,
and
there
was
a
report
earlier
about
how
they're
putting
in
the
air
quality
sensors
we're.
Also
looking
at
noise
sensors,
we
were
not
looking
at
gunshot
sensors,
but
yeah
that
is
moving
forward.
J
No,
you
read
my
mind
chair,
you
know
this
is
I
mean
I
was
going
to
ask
the
attorney
manager
to
the
extent
that
if
I
mean
these
are
good
questions,
that's
being
raised
and
do
good
areas,
and
so
there's
a
particular
General
plan,
a
policy
that
that
we
can.
We
can
raise
and
solicit
for
the
input
along
these
lines
of
smart
city.
That's
that's!
That's
it
that's
appropriate,
because
this
is
a
a
discussion
about
that,
but
the
other
General
plan.
J
B
B
Okay,
yeah
so
Ray
already
brought
up
about
the
telecommunications
and
the
architecture
and
I
think
we've
also
brought
up
health
and
safety
I,
don't
feel
it's
adequate
what's
in
there
regarding
the
mitigation
of
hazardous
waste
sites,
I
think
we
need
to
be
much
more
proactive,
not
wait
until
a
developer
goes
and
does
their
own
soil
testing.
The
city
needs
to
be
proactive
because
you
know,
as
we've
seen
before
in
the
past.
We
can't
always
trust
the
property
owner
to
do
proper
testing.
G
Sharp,
while
you're
doing
that,
I
think
there
are
probably
three
parts
to
that.
One
part
is
a
communication
policy.
When
we
have
it's
both
mapping
and
Communications
to
be
able
to
map
the
sites
to
take
Geo
Tracker
to
look
at
dry
cleaners
and
gas
stations
in
other
areas,
for
example,
apparently
the
unical
76
leaks,
something
like
1800
gallons
of
gasoline
right
and
so.
A
G
We've
got
to
be
a
level
to
warn
the
public
that
that
has
occurred
and
also
warn
people
that
it
is
a
nearby
area.
So
there's
a
communication
element,
that's
there
and
there's
a
second
element.
I
think
that's
important
is
to
make
sure
that
we
understand.
You
know
what
that
testing
would
look
like.
For
example,
what
does
the
groundwater
look
like,
or
how
long
does
Perk
stay
in
the
groundwater
right
for
those
areas
right?
G
J
That's
that
that
question
is
is
difficult
in
this
short
period
of
time
to
answer
chair,
because
there
is
a
significant
number
of
state
laws
that
that
precludes
our
ability
to
to
weigh
in
on
development.
But
I
do
want
to
take
this
back
again.
I
mean
I
I'm,
hearing
lots
of
good
ideas,
but
what
I'd
like
to
do
is
take
us
back
to
where
we've
agendized
this
particular
meeting,
which
is
to
discuss
the
general
plan.
General
plan
sets
forth
the
policies
that
you
know.
J
Area
that
that
any
particular
policy
that
the
Commissioners
you
know
feel
like
we,
we
should
have
further
information.
For
instance,
we
started
this
meeting
with
chemistry
Kapil,
who
suggested
a
column
for
short
and
long
term
goals.
I
think
think,
that's
good
feedback
that
staff
would
take
and
perhaps
incorporate
that,
and
so
that's
that's
the
the
type
of
feedback
you
know
in
terms
of
the
policy.
Maybe
some
of
the
policies
aren't
working
and
you
want
to
share
that
with
Council
that
you
know
we
need
to
tweak
this
particular
policy.
D
J
A
B
H
There
is
no
comprehensive
update
for
the
general
plan
scheduled
at
this
point.
We
are
doing
a
housing
element
update
a
general
plan.
Amendment
update
typically
takes
anywhere
from
three
to
five
years
to
complete,
so
we're
we're
ways
away
from
our
next
general
comprehensive
General,
Plan
update,
but.
G
H
A
G
I'm
yeah
I'm
just
trying
to
make
sure
that
we,
the
public,
understands
what
Deputy
attorney
is
saying.
So
by
the
time
we
can
actually
make
a
suggestion
or
plan.
We
potentially
could
be
four
years
out,
which
is
really
the
discussion
point
or
it
would
be
earlier
if
we
actually
get
it
in
the
council
priorities
that
would
occur
in
January
when
they
make
those
Council
priorities.
Is
that
correct
Shona
show
stand
process
or
whether
it
understands
what
this
means.
G
If
Council
puts
it
into
the
work
plan,
then
that
becomes
in
something
that
can
be
discussed
and
issued
and
agendized
right.
Sorry,
okay,
so
but
okay
I
mean
so
so
what
what
is
the
reality
of
the
comment
that
was
being
made
by
our
Deputy
attorney
is
that
you
know
for
us
to
even
make
this
or
put
this
on
agenda
so
that
the
general
public
understands
could
be
years
from
now.
E
G
Okay,
so
one
we
get
to
the
approval
process,
I
would
like
to
suggest
that
we,
based
on
the
section
that
chair
sharp,
is
suggesting
is
that
we
demand
that
our
entire
city
soils
are
at
residential
screening
levels.
I
think
that's,
probably
the
right
word
verbiage
for
that,
so
to
protect
the
environment
at
residential
screening
levels.
We
should
demand
that
the
city
soils
are
residential
screaming
levels
and
we
demand
clean
groundwater,
and
that
might
be
the
two
points
that
we
could
properly
incorporate
chair
shark
for
your
consideration.
E
E
I
mean
once
the
city
property,
then
the
city
becomes
a
property
owner
and
you
know
we
would
have
the
liabilities
if
any,
which
get
linked
to
it.
So
I
guess,
from
an
urgency
point
of
view,
I've
put
as
a
higher
residency
than
a
private
property,
because
a
private
property,
unless
somebody
is
doing
something
with
it,
it's
not
it
doesn't
it's
not
relevant.
B
E
G
I
I
think
I
think
the
motion
is
I
think
the
motion
is
like
we
have
the
motion
to
make
an
approval
of
I,
believe
the
processes
and
and
Deputy
State
Attorney
make
sure
that
we're
doing
it
the
right
way.
I
believe
the
motion
is
that
we're
making
we're
gonna
make
a
motion
to
approve
these
changes
right
with
the
following
amendments
or
not
amendments
but
communicates
to
city,
council
and
and
I
think
that's
all
we
can
do.
Is
that
correct?
So.
J
G
J
G
We
need
a
policy
to
ensure
that
there
is
Architectural,
Review
and
Architectural
standards
for
new
telecommunication
infrastructure
in
the
city
and
so
that
all
new
towers
or
all
new
fiber
optic
cables
or
any
new
types
of
telecommunications
are
actually
that
require
physical
physical
structures
are
are
proved
through
architectural
standards.
So
that's
what's
missing,
okay,.
J
G
H
J
J
Yeah,
so
if
I
may,
commissioner
Wong
in
the
year
the
master
of
the
whatever
motion
you
know,
yeah
the
Commissioners
wants
to
carve.
But
I
do
want
to
point
out
that
we
did
have
a
work
session
on
on
telecommunications
ordinance.
Last
week,
where
staff
presented
a
draft
5G
ordinance
and
returns
listed
the
feedback
and
receive
feedback
from
Council
and
they're
in
the
process
of
preparing
that
ordinance
and
bring
it
back
to
to
council.
So
just
to
know
that
that
that
that
has
occurred,
understood.
G
I
I
do
understand
that
I
I
feel
excluded
in
a
world
where
inclusion
is
supposed
to
be
important
here.
I
I
well
I
understand
that
there's
a
different
Viewpoint
as
to
the
jurisdiction
of
those
standards.
It's
good
to
know
that
there
and
and
I
just
want
to
make
sure
our
voices
heard.
So.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
for
sharing
that.
B
D
Yeah
I
have
a
clarification
for
2.3.2
housing,
affordability,
residential
housing
mitigation
program,
I,
don't
know
if
page
number
is
not
written,
so
I
can't
tell
you
the
page
number
there,
but
it
is
2.3.2.
So
I
have
a
question
related
to.
This
is
basically
that
there
are
income
limit
specified
here
for
BMR
units
and
priority
specified,
and
then
rental
alternative
specified
I,
just
I
just
need
to
know
that
just
income
limit
is
not
sufficient.
Is
that
correct?
D
There
could
be
more
than
one
areas
which
could
be
applicable
like,
for
instance,
the
teachers
who
are
teaching
and
could
put
in
a
schools.
They
have
a
certain
income
level,
but
there
might
be
other
category
of
people
who
might
have
the
similar
income
for
that,
but
their
presence
in
the
city
has
a
little
bit
more
priority
than
the
the
equivalent
income
people
in
the
other
category.
D
H
So
I
do
believe
we
select
the
the
population
necessarily
I,
think
the
BMR
housing
is
purely
that
it
is
below
market
rate
housing
by
income
level.
We
do
have
a
priority
place
for
people
that
live
and
work
in
Cupertino.
There
is
a
point
system
for
that,
however.
I
don't
believe
the
city
gets
to
pick
whether
they
want
teachers
or
restaurant
workers
in
in
that
point
system.
D
Okay,
so
there
is
no
set
of
in
the
worker
like
categorization
in
the
in
the
set
of
services,
which
is
provisioned
for
by
the
people,
let's
say
to
the
schools,
to
the
fire
department
to
similar
other
departments
among
to
the
similar
income
level
people.
So
if,
if
you
have
the
five
applications
of
the
similar
income,
you
have
to
pick,
how
do
you
pick.
H
That
is
that
is
dictated
by
the
city's
administration
of
its
BMR
program.
Unfortunately,
I
don't
know
the
particulars
of
it.
I
just
know
that
there
is
a
lottery
that
also
occurs
because
we
get
more
applications
than
we
than
we
can
satisfy
the
need
for
and
so
I
believe
there
is
a
lottery
and
you
just
get
placed
on
the
list,
regardless
of
who
you
are,
except
for
the
fact
that
there
is
a
priority
system
for
people
that
reside
and
work
in
Cupertino,
I.
Think
there's
a
point
system.
H
So
if
you
think
you
get
a
maximum
of
four
points
and
depending
on
that,
you
then
get
if,
if
there
were
five
people
that
all
have
four
points,
I
think
there's
a
lottery
and
they
just
get
placed
on
the
list
based
on
the
lottery.
And
then
it
moves
on
to
people
that
have
three
points,
and
you
know
they're
placed
on
the
list.
D
Yeah
to
me,
it
looks
like
there
are
a
certain
priorities
for
setup
population
which
are
critical
to
the
infrastructure
which
we
provision
in
the
city
and
that
priority
needs
to
be
articulated
very
clearly
in
the
in
the
policy
or
strategy,
whatever
we
are
out
outlining
here.
So
that's
that
was
a
point.
H
B
B
H
It
is
in
the
housing,
admin
BMR
Administration
manual,
and
that
generally
goes
through
the
Housing
Commission
for
a
recommendation
to
plan
to
the
city,
council
and
and
with
regard
to
the
particulars
of
any.
This
is
a
program.
The
general
plan
only
sets
up
the
program
and
the
BMR
Administration
manual
sets
up
the
particulars
of
that
program
and
I
think
the
the
lottery
system
is
to
take
the
bias
out
of
the
system.
Again,
there
is
a
point
system
which
kind
of
factors
in
a
certain
population,
people
that
already
live
and
work
in
Cupertino.
H
D
H
G
G
It
doesn't
exist,
correct,
that's
correct,
so
so
telecommissioning
projects,
especially
those
that
require
physical
infrastructure,
you
know,
must
must
meet
architectural
standards.
Architectural
standards
should
be
set
by
the
Planning
Commission
and
then
we'll
argue
that
later
somewhere
else,
whether
they're,
public
or
private,
so.
H
B
D
I
have
one
one
more
okay
go.
This
is
related
to
that's
cool
resource
sharing,
which
point
is
that
I
I
saw
that
sometime
back
I
I
I
just
want
to
know
that
the
what
is
the
extent
of
the
school
resources
sharing
there
is
a
bullet
item
here,
somewhere
I'm
unable
to
find
it
right
now,
but
I
did
see
that
and
what
I
read
in
the
comment
section
there
that
city
council
hasn't
decided
or
something
I
just
want
to
know
the
status
for
recreational
facilities
like
gymnasium
swimming
pool.
D
H
So
252
discusses
the
possible
exploring
the
possibility
of
providing
additional
access
to
existing
facilities
to
existing
gyms
swimming
pools,
Tennis
Courts
at,
for
example,
the
high
schools,
to
the
extent
that
the
city
is
able,
we
do
have
a
shared
resource.
You
know
shared
joint
uses,
joint
use
agreements;
typically,
they
do
not
extend
to
the
actual
facilities,
they
only
extend
to
tracks,
and
you
know
the
actual
fields
that
are
at
the
schools.
It
is
something
that
you
know,
I,
don't
believe
the
high
schools
are
neces.
H
The
district
is
necessarily
interested
in
allowing
public
use
of
that
as
much
as
they
are.
You
know
as
much
as
they
are
okay
with
the
use
of
fields
after
school.
So
that
is
something
that
you
know.
It's
just
an
ongoing
thing
that
you
know
if
there
ever
is
a
possibility.
If
something
comes
up.
That
is
something
that
we
could
look
at
and
that
would
be
through
the
parks
and
rec
division.
H
With
regard
to
the
sharing
of
resources,
I
believe
you're.
Talking
about
the
last
strategy,
RPC
813
8.1.3.
It
talks
about
collaborating
with
schools
on
their
facility
needs
and
it
talks
about
through
sharing
of
development,
information
and
Partnerships
through
major
development
projects.
So
this
is,
for
example,
if
there
were
a
developer
that
wishes
to
offer
something
to
the
school
districts,
that's
something
that
that
a
developer
could
potentially
do
we've
seen
a
couple
of
projects
propose
something
to
the
school
districts.
A
H
There's
a
sequel
impact,
typically,
just
payment
of
the
school
impact
fees
is
considered
to
be
considered
full
mitigation
of
any
project.
So
unless
there
is
something
that
there's
an
impact
to
the
school
Pro,
you
know
from
environmental
impact
to
the
school
property.
There
is
really
not
much
that
the
city
can
require
from
Developers
for
schools.
D
So
to
be
clear
that
this
item,
the
previous
one,
the
one
you
mentioned,
just
first
2.5.2-
what
has
been
decided.
So
there
is
no
ex,
because
it's
a
the
comment
says
that
the
explore
the
possibility
of
providing
additional
access.
So
the
outcome
is,
this
is
not
possible
at
this
point.
Is
that
what
you're
saying
right,
correct.
H
B
B
B
G
G
G
G
Feedback
we
want
to
send
a
communique
and,
and
the
communique
is
yeah.
The
communique
is
like
the
for
the
for
the
policy
to
protect
the
environment
at
residential
levels
for
any
current
or
proposed
development
areas,
and
that
contaminated
and
potentially
contaminated
sites
have
to
be
proven.
They
are
healthy
locations
for
sensitive
receptors
prior
to
consideration
for
residents.
I
think
that's,
probably
better.
G
The
tier
one,
residential
screening
errors
and
any
areas
not
actually
cleaned
at
the
tier
one
residential
level
should
not
be
considered
for
housing
until
after
they
can
prove
that
the
site
meets
Tier,
1
residential
levels.
I
think
those
are
the
three
things,
and
hopefully
someone
captured
that
that's
that's
the
suggestion
we
like
to
make
to
council
and
then
the
one
on
telecommunications
is
I,
think
that
was
captured,
but,
if
not
captured.
G
The
suggestion
is
that
all
telecommunications-
all
physical,
it's
all
physical
telecommunications
infrastructure-
must
meet,
must
meet
architectural
standards
and
Architectural
Review
before
they
are
installed
and
I,
don't
know
if
we
can
go
retro
retroactive
on
that.
But
I'll
wait
to
see
what
kind
of
policy
it
was
crafted
presented
to
council
I'll.
Look
it
up
right.
G
I
I
G
B
B
A
D
I
have
one
question:
what
is
the
general
way
of
like
for
bringing
a
certain
aspect
to
the
the
city
councils
attention,
for
instance,
like
I,
just
mentioned
few
minutes
back
Smart
City
Concepts
for
various
reasons?
How
do
you?
How
do
you
go
about
that?
I
mean
there's
not
so
much
time
here
in
Planning
Commission
meetings
to
talk
about
each
individual
aspect
of
it
in
a
full
details
or
or
its
implication
or
what,
where
it
applies,
and
what
not
right.
G
D
H
H
I
did
check
into
that
and
my
understanding
this
is
what
I
got
from
bill
is
that
we
have
Smart
City
projects,
but
there's
no
written
road
map
on
on.
You
know
like
a
global
thing,
so
there
are
iot
related
projects
for
the
the
like
I
mentioned,
for
the
air
quality
stuff.
For
example.
I
know
those
are
those
have
been
deployed.
I
know
there
was
a
potential
for
I
think
it
was
recycling
or
Garbage
Collection
as
well.
D
B
B
B
H
E
G
Did
I
was
gonna,
say
I've
been
attending
the
Cali
meetings
as
well
as
you
I
think
I
just
attend
as
you
leave,
so
you
may
have
another
meeting
before
me.
I
think
there's
a
lot
of
discussions
about
participation
in
the
Cal
cities,
it's
the
legal,
City,
sorry
and
and
how
the
league
is
not
being
representative
of
residential
interests.
I
think
that's
just
something
for
residents
to
understand.
G
Many
cities
are
in
the
active
process
of
considering
terminating
their
membership
with
the
league
of
cities
for
their
lack
of
representation
for
local
control.
There
is
a
belief
that
the
league
of
cities
today
has
been
infiltrated
by
developer
groups
and
not
really
the
interests
of
the
local
control,
four
cities,
and
it's
just
something
that
will
pop
up.
So
you
may
start
to
see.
G
B
H
H
H
H
Okay,
here
we
go,
we
have
it
during
December
23rd,
yes,
so
through
December
23rd.
So
please
email
your
comments
to
housing,
cupertino.org
or
mail
them
into
City
Hall
attention
of
Luke,
Connolly
and
so
December
23rd
is
when
the
public
review
period
ends
once
City
Hall
reopens.
We
have
14
business
days
that
we
have
to
actually
make
create
responses
to
those
comments
and
I
believe
we
aim
to
submit
the
draft
to
each
City
sometime
before
the
31st
of
January.
H
B
I
think
well,
I.
Think
I.
May
you
know
for
the
school
general
for
future
agenda
setting
I
do
have
presentation
on
school
generation
rates.
It's
obviously
not
going
to
be
we're
not
going
to
get
the
information
from
the
school
districts
updated,
but
I
do
have
old.
I
do
have
a
previous
student
generation
rate
presentation
and
data
that
they
provided
and
I
I
could
do
a
presentation
on
that
on
my
own,
if
that's
legal
yeah
on
the
10th
I
mean
it
will
not
be
a
long
presentation,
it's
only
maybe
three
or
four
slides.
B
H
E
B
E
E
That
was
the
primary
reason.
I
I
was
motivated
me
to
to
join
the
Planning
Commission
in
a
lot
of
ways,
because
at
the
schools
were
in
a
really
bad
shape,
so
I'm
hoping
at
least
we
we
get
some
idea
about
how
future
planning
can
be
guided
to
make
sure
the
schools
are
adequately
funded.
Although
I
think
we
have,
we
have
learned
a
lot,
but
it
would
be
nice
to
to
see
some
officials,
data
and
statistics
also
on
that
things.
Speaking.
