A
A
Here,
thank
you
very
much
and
our
first
set
of
items
is
ceremonial
matters
and
presentations.
We
have
on
item
one.
The
subject
is
to
consider
a
certificate
of
appreciation
to
Captain
Richard
arena
for
his
years
of
service
to
the
Cupertino
Community
as
West
Valley,
Patrol
Captain,
and
so
we
have
a
certificate
of
appreciation
for
the
captain
captain.
If
you
would
please
come
up
and
bring
any
of
your
cohort
that
you
would
like
to
bring
with
you
for
this
ceremony
and
if
my
colleagues
and
city
manager
can
join
me
on
the
dice
as
well.
F
A
G
Thank
you,
mayor
Paul,
vice
mayor
child
members
of
the
council.
Certainly
this
wasn't
necessary,
but
I
do
appreciate
the
acknowledgment
you
know
for
the
last
six
years
and
three
months,
I've
had
the
pleasure
of
working
with
the
residents
of
the
city
of
Cupertino,
as
well
as
City
staff
and
obviously
the
council,
and
just
like
anything
else,
things
must
come
to
an
end,
and
so
I
am
moving
on.
I
will
miss
this
community.
G
However,
however,
in
my
next
assignment
we'll
be
able
to
support
this
community,
I
am
moving
on
to
the
investigations
Division
and
in
that
Division
I
get
to
make
sure
that
things
are
done
right
on
the
back
end,
and
so
I'll
continue
to
support
this
community
I.
Thank
all
of
you
for
giving
me
the
opportunity
to
be
here
with
all
of
you
in
this
awesome
Community.
Thank
you,
sir
I
appreciate
that
Captain
hearing.
A
And,
as
is
the
tradition
of
West
Valley,
you
are
always
providing
the
cities
of
the
West
Valley,
an
excellent
captain
and
we're
very
much
looking
forward
to
Neil
Valenzuela
as
our
next
Captain,
and
so
thank
you
very
much
for
all
that.
You
do
and
I
know
that
you'll
be
in
touch
as
the
captain
of
detectives,
and
so
thank
you
very
much
for
all
that.
You
do
once
again.
So
here's
our
certificate
and
I'll
open
it
up
and
let's
take
a
quick
shot.
H
A
A
A
Prior
to
the
holiday
season
really
kicking
off
in
Earnest,
we
wanted
to
be
able
to
express
our
appreciation
to
not
just
the
public
safety
arm
of
the
employees
of
the
city
of
Cupertino,
but
also
to
the
employees
themselves
and
so
item
number
two
under
ceremonial
matters
and
presentations
is
a
couple
of
certificates
of
appreciation
for
two
of
our
employees
that
have
been
working
for
a
very
long
time
for
Cupertino
those
are
Rudy,
Lomas
and
Kane,
wolf
and
so
Rudy
and
Kane.
If
you
would
like
to
join
us,
please
again
on
the
dice.
A
C
Just
want
to
say
thank
you,
everybody.
It's
been
great
serving
the
city
Cupertino,
hopefully,
I'll
enjoy
my
next
chapter.
I
28
years
been
a
long
time,
it's
I
came
here
when
I
was
32
years
old
from
construction.
What
was
left
in
my
body
and
got
a
city
job,
and
it's
been
a
wonderful
experience
working
with
all
you,
people
and
I
was
really
alluded
to
it's
it's
time
to
move
on
and
take
care
of
family
and
enjoy
the
next
chapter
of
Our
Lives.
Thank
you
very
much.
Thanks
for.
I
A
Thanks
so
much
and
we'll
present
these
now.
J
A
All
right
well,
thank
you
very
much.
Everyone
and
I
will
go
ahead
and
ask
that
at
this
point
we
have
a
15-minute
recess
and
the
reason
we're
having
a
recess
at
this
time
is
that
we're
still
observing
some
social
distancing
protocols,
and
so
a
couple
of
my
colleagues
will
be
taking
this
meeting
remotely
for
the
remainder
of
the
agenda
and
so
right
now
we
are
at
6
53.
We
will
reconvene
at
7
10,
so
we'll
see
you
then
back
everyone.
A
A
Go
ahead
and
take
oral
Communications
and
postponements
of
the
day
and
so
backing
up
two
steps.
Sorry
I'm
pawning
a
little
bit
too
much
at
the
hoof
to
get
through
this,
but
postponements
and
Orders
of
the
day
is
the
next
section
on
our
agenda.
Does
anybody
have
a
requested,
postponement
or
reordering
of
the
agenda
at
this
time,
council.
A
Okay,
so
that's
item
11
consideration
of
the
mitigation
fee
act.
Let
me
ask
if
there
is
anybody
else
who
would
like
to
request
a
postponement
or
different
ordering
of
the
day
for
the
agenda
I
see
only
council
member
Moore's
hand
is
raised
all
right,
councilmember
Moore.
Would
you
like
to
put
that
into
the
form
of
emotion,
then,
for
your
request.
A
A
K
Yes,
I
just
like
to
hear
our
council
member
Moore's
in
more
detail.
Why
is
this
postponent
any
other
questions
that
haven't
been
asked
before
you
know
when
we're
reviewing
agenda
or
are
there
further
information
she
is
requesting.
L
A
E
Mayor
there
are
two
hands
raised
on
Zoom
I,
don't
know
if
they're
for
oral
Communications.
However
I
don't
know.
If
you
would
like
to
take
public
comments.
A
I
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
refer
to
our
City
attorney
on
this
because
of
the
fact
that
we
normally
take
public
comment
prior
to
a
motion
being
made,
and
so
I
will
go
ahead
and
ask
Chris
whether
it
makes
sense
to
check
in
with
our
members
of
the
public
with
a
hand
raised
as
to
whether
their
comment
is.
Regarding
this
item.
N
So
so
the
because
this
is
being
postponed.
There's
no
need
to
take
public
comment
on
this
item
at
this
time,
if
assuming
Council
approves
them
but
approves
the
motion,
of
course.
Okay,.
A
E
A
Thank
you
very
much
and
we
are
on
to
oral
Communications.
This
portion
of
the
meeting
is
reserved
for
items
that
are
not
on
the
agenda
but
can
be
heard
by
city
council
at
a
future
meeting,
and
so
we
will
go
to
our
members
of
the
public
with
hands
raised
in
zoom
and
then
we
will
go
to
our
blue
cards
and
then
we
will
go
to
any
emails
that
come
into
city
clerk
cupertino.org
during
the
time
that
the
first
person
is
speaking
or
three
minutes.
A
A
Thank
you
very
much.
Madam
City,
Clerk
and
I
know
that
we
have
a
group
of
students
today
and
they
are
felix
Stephanie,
Annie,
Aspen
and
Bruno,
and
they
would
like
to
provide
a
presentation
so
we'll
go
to
the
map
for
that.
Jennifer
Griffin
John,
Kehoe,
Connie,
Cunningham,
Rhoda,
fry
and
Lisa
Warren
will
comprise
our
current
Communications
under
all
Communications
and
to
remind
all
the
members
of
the
public.
A
A
O
Such
a
servant
there's
a
city
as
a
servant
for
the
residence
so
for
the
major
major
coefficient
Department,
whoever
make
decision
to
take
away
the
property
and
the
belongings,
and
it
should
have
more
citizen
Investments
upon
the
city
in
the
whole
position
there
and
and
another
thing
is
about
the
the
fee
and
I,
don't
know
when
the
the
code
would
change,
but
for
normally,
for
the
parties
basically
have
oppose
attorney
for
the
situation,
because
the
the
belonging
property
we're
taking
without
notice
and
a
choice.
So
it's
already
so
much
financial
burden.
O
Another
thing
is
about
the
outside:
Council
and
I
know:
city
council
has
tried
to
hire
more
people
in
the
legal
department,
but
somehow
the
outside
you
have
a
rearing
and
and
for
people
and
whoever
in
the
department
and
a
few
of
them
are
still
serving
and
for
the
ones
for
this
matter,
which
is
a
got
the
I
think
even
the
cities
was
not,
it
doesn't
need
it.
O
We
still
got
it
and
in
this
case,
and
you
look
forward
to
what
they
told
us
and
they
still,
we
don't
notice,
torn
down
the
property
and
particular
balance
away
and
for
those
people,
whoever
involved
in
those
decisions,
resign.
Another
thing
I
have
with
this
person,
another
person
so
party.
He
had
something
to
say
about
it,
so
please
let
him
talk
about
it.
He's
he's
a
title
with
the
Juan
or
Peter.
P
I
just
wanted
to
say
that
these
past
three
years
have
noticed
this
situation,
which
has
been
an
ongoing
legal
battle
involving
the
Wang
family,
has
not
come
to
any
resolution
and
I
think
it
would
be
the
best
percent
of
both
the
Wang
family
as
well
as
the
city
if
they
could
simply
be
amenable
to
having
a
neutral
third
party,
some
for
a
party
who's,
knowledgeable
about
this
in
the
legal
field
or
planning
Fields
with
no
ties
to
the
city
of
Cupertino.
Who
could
help
to
be
able
to
bring
this
to
closure?
P
Otherwise,
I
think
in
the
long
run
that
the
family
is
going
to
suffer
intensely
from
the
financial
burden
of
massive
fines
and
penalties,
which
is
going
to
do
no
good
whatsoever,
particularly
for
people
who
live
for
more
than
in
the
Cupertino
for
more
than
10
years
without
the
incident
I.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
A
Q
Okay,
we'll
unmute
good
evening,
Mr
Mayor
and
the
rest
of
the
council
members
I'm
Dennis
Cunningham
I've
been
a
resident
of
Cupertino
for
about
45
years.
I
saw
an
article
on
the
front
page
of
the
San
Jose
Mercury
this
morning.
That
made
me
want
to
talk
to
the
council
tonight.
It
was
about
work
from
home,
taking
root
in
California
culture.
Q
It's
unfortunate
that
it's
taken
the
pandemic
to
bring
this
about,
but
nevertheless
it
has
I'm
retired
now,
but
my
career
was
as
an
HR
executive
at
NASA
Ames
Research
Center.
As
a
youngster
in
the
mid
to
late
70s
I
proposed
to
NASA
headquarters
that
we
create
a
policy
of
allowing
work
from
home
in
appropriate
situations,
I
called
it
flexa
Place.
It
was
probably
an
idea
that
was
a
little
bit
before
its
time,
because
we
didn't
have
the
implementing
Technologies
that
are
available
today.
Q
Now,
in
the
last
two
years,
or
so,
the
pandemic
has
made
work
from
home
necessary,
but,
as
the
impact
of
covid
is
hopefully
receding,
a
lot
of
organizations
are
now
looking
at
their
policies
at
at
this
time,
when
we
have
a
new
city
manager
and
some
new
members
coming
on
the
council,
I
urge
the
count,
the
the
the
city
to
reaffirm
our
current
flexibilities.
Q
Two
particular
examples
are
City
Council
meetings
and
the
city
staff
Council
meetings
right
now
are
available
for
active
attendance
from
home,
just
like
I'm
doing
and
in
person
and
I
was
heartened
to
see
that
tonight.
Even
some
of
the
council
members
elected
to
work
remotely-
hey,
that's
good.
This
process
makes
it
possible
for
many
more
citizens
to
participate.
Q
I
urge
the
council
to
contribute
to
continue
this
hybrid
meeting
structure
into
the
future,
even
if
it's
not
motivated
by
pandemic
concerns
and
also
since
the
city
as
a
city,
we
need
to
be
competitive
in
the
job
market.
I
urge
that
we
recognize
the
importance
of
work
from
home
flexibility
in
attracting
and
retaining
a
high
quality
staff.
It's
an
outstanding
example
of
a
height
of
a
low-cost
high
value
per
as
today's
newspaper
States.
It's
become
the
new
normal
for
a
large
segment
of
the
workplace.
Q
Thanks
for
your
attention,
low-cost
high
value
perk
is
a
good
thing.
Bye,
bye,.
A
Thank
you
Dennis
much
appreciated
and
we
will
go
on
to
Peggy
Griffin
next
on
Zoom
welcome,
Peggy
and
just
to
give
everyone
the
comfort
of
definitiveness.
After
Peggy
we
have
San
R
again
we
have
the
blue
cards
that
we
had
mentioned
earlier.
Madam
city
clerk.
Are
there
any
further
blue
cards
for
oral
Communications?
No.
E
A
So
that
will
comprise
the
list
of
oral
Communications.
We
are
on
to
Peggy
Griffin
Griffin,
rather
welcome
Peggy.
R
Council,
member
city
manager,
Wu
and
City
attorney
Jensen
I
have
two
items
to
discuss
tonight.
First,
this
is
the
last
evening
that
this
particular
council
is
in
session.
Mayor
Paul
and
councilman
Willie
will
be
leaving
I'd
like
to
thank
you
all
for
all
your
hard
work,
the
long
hours
you've
spent
away
from
your
family
and
day
jobs
to
improve
our
city
and
our
lives.
You
have
brought
more
transparency
opportunity
for
public
comment
and
engagement,
even
during
almost
three
years
of
coven
communication
with
the
public
has
improved
significantly.
R
There
is
more
oversight,
more
involvement
by
our
commissions
than
you
have
on
staff,
a
city
manager
and
a
City
attorney
very
experienced
and
knowledgeable
about
land
use.
Those
of
you
who
are
leaving
are
leaving
us
in
a
better
place
than
when
you
started.
Those
of
you
who
remain
I
hope
continue.
This
amazing
job.
Thank
you
all
for
what
you
do
and
have
done.
Second,
I
want
to
make
the
council
staff
in
public
aware
of
what's
Happening
behind
the
scenes
on
Main
Street.
R
When
the
project
was
approved,
there
was
an
agreement
that
the
restaurants
would
not
exceed
a
certain
percentage
of
the
total
square
footage.
This
was
because
the
public
wanted
a
grocery
store
some
place
to
buy
Goods
in
an
area
that
lacks
it.
I
recently
found
out
that
the
planning
department
is
in
the
process
of
changing
this
reneging
on
this
promise
form
a
bait
and
switch.
Please
uphold
the
promise
you
made
to
the
public.
Thank
you.
S
Very
good
so
I
want
to
thank
the
city
council
for
the
work
that
you
have
done
over
the
past
two
years.
I
want
to
congratulate
the
mayor
on
his
eight
years
of
service
and
commitment
to
the
city
across
different
city
councils,
ending
in
his
role
as
mayor
and
I
want
to
thank
council
member
John
Willy
for
his
tireless.
S
Championing
of
residence
courses
as
this
election
has
come
to
an
end,
I'd
like
to
also
welcome
the
three
city
council
members
who
will
be
staying
on
in
the
next
city
council
and
an
early
welcome
to
the
new
members
that
will
be
joining
in
I
hope.
The
new
city
council
will
look
at
the
needs
of
residents
in
a
way
that
is
connected
with
people,
I
urge
and
encourage
the
new
city
council
to
meet
and
mingle
with
your
residents
across
neighborhoods
visit,
the
parks
visit
the
homes.
S
It
is
not
just
to
ask
for
votes,
but
do
that
on
a
regular
basis
and
understand
the
pains
and
needs
of
Cupertino
citizen.
The
tops
mine
for
Cupertino
is
crime
and
break-ins.
We
have
car
break-ins
happening
all
the
time
we
have
home
break-ins,
especially
in
this
holiday
season.
I
urge
you
to
work
with
the
West
Valley
petrol
and
make
sure
they
prioritize
Staffing.
The
patrol
neighborhoods
at
night
across
the
city
I
urge
you
to
work
with
West
Valley
Patrol
to
ensure
that
they
are
prioritizing
crime
and
not
ticketing.
S
Parents
who
are
off
dropping
kids
to
school
top
of
mind
for
residents
is
also
the
need
for
more
entertainment
in
Cupertino.
I
was
in
the
old
bowling
alley.
The
bowling
alley
at
welcome
all
and
it
was
completely
packed
on
a
late
Saturday
afternoon.
S
A
Thank
you
very
much.
Sam
and
I
do
see
one
more
hand
raised
in
Zoom.
Unfortunately,
we
are
going
to
abide
by
the
requirements
to
put
your
hand
up
by
the
time,
the
first
person's
done
speaking
or
within
three
minutes
and
both
of
those
times
elapsed
and
so
I'm
gonna
go
ahead
and
move
to
our
blue
cards.
Those
are
from
Felix
Stephanie,
Annie,
Aspen
and
Bruno
for
our
first
set
of
comments
that
are
Consolidated
in
a
presentation.
A
Welcome
the
team
of
the
tornado
robotics
under
the
first
robotics
Lego
league
and
we're
thrilled
to
have
you
here.
You'll
have
oh
so
you'll
want
to
go
up
to
the
microphone
over
there
and,
if
you're,
providing
us
materials
feel
free
to
do
that.
But
because
you
have
five
people
Consolidated,
we
allow
up
to
two
minutes
each
for
up
to
10
minutes
and
so
welcome
and
we're
very
much
looking
forward
to
your
present
station.
T

Our
Innovation
project
is
called
personal,
Hydro,
2.0
or
PH2.
For
short,
the
reason
we
are
giving
this
presentation
is,
since
our
mayor,
Darcy,
Paul
and
councilman
John
Willy
were
very
kind
to
listen
to
our
presentation
beforehand
and
to
give
us
feedback.
They
recommended
that
we
let
the
whole
city
of
Cupertino
know
about
our
project
and
how
it
saves
energy
we'd
like
to
thank
them
for
their
support.
U
V
A
Okay,
so
so
just
to
let
you
know
until
this
moment
those
items
have
not
been
visible,
and
so
you
might
want
to
take
that
into
account
as
you're
speaking
so
I
just
pause,
your
time.
I
apologize
for
that,
and
so
please
feel
free
to
continue
with
your
presentation.
H
W
The
energy
saved
could
be
repurposed
to
do
tasks
around
the
house,
such
as
running
the
motion
activated
faucet
and
charging
mobile
devices,
so
in
conclusion,
installing
PH2
and
homes
will
help
with
a
Greener
and
better
future
for
our
city.
For
those
who
are
interested
in
more
details,
you
can
watch
our
video
using
a
QR
code
that
we
will
pass
out
at
the
end.
Please
also
fill
out
the
survey.
It
would
be
great
if
you
could.
Let
us
know
your
thoughts
on
our
prototype
and
how
you
think
we
can
make
it
better.
A
Okay,
wonderful
and
I'll
note
that
the
QR
code
in
video,
If,
You,
Could,
oh
wonderful,
and
so
that
QR
code
is
now
on
the
slide
on
the
screen.
And
thank
you
very
much
best
of
luck
and
we
greatly
appreciate
it.
X
X
You
guys
have
been
here
very,
very
late.
Some
evenings
and
I
think
the
city
is
much
much
better
for
your
presence
here.
So
thank
you.
So
much
I
just
wanted
to
talk
about
a
very,
very
discouraging
thing
that
happened
last
week
the
graves
house
which
we
had
been
trying
to
preserve
actually
caught
fire
last
Wednesday
night
and
burned.
I,
don't
I,
don't
know
if
I
could
put
this
on
the
overhead,
but
the
preservation,
Action
Council
of
San
Jose,
actually
had
it
on
their
header.
Is
this
how
we
do
it
here?
X
Yes,
this
is
the
home
that
was
in
1868,
italianate
Farmhouse
and
then
I'll
show
you
what
it
looked
like
before
this
was
the
home.
If
you
can
see
here,
it
had
been
continuously
occupied
by
the
same
family
from
1868
to
2020..
You
do
not
find
that
in
California,
I'm
going
to
start
out,
I
actually
went
to
school
with
Hammonds
from
the
Snyder
Hammond
house.
I
went
to
school
with
the
Mr
Graves,
who
I
believe
is
from
the
graves
family
and
a
lot
of
Murphy's,
which
are
from
the
pioneering
family
in
Sunnyvale.
X
X
so
to
go
back
to
I'll,
get
to
the
graves
house
again
in
just
a
minute.
I
have
one
minute:
we
have
our
own
historic
home.
The
stockelmeyer
house,
Mr
stockelmeyer,
was
one
of
the
founders
of
Cupertino.
It's
time
to
restore
this
Farmhouse,
we
have
the
money
we
have.
The
house
secured,
Mr,
stockelmeyer,
actually
I
believe
founded
the
California
History
Center
in
the
Petit
Trion
at
De,
Anza
College,
it's
time
to
preserve
his
home.
X
X
I
will
tell
you
right
now:
there
is
an
active
group
now
working
to
get
it
moved
to
Kelly
and
that
there
is
people
me
included
that
are
working
very,
very
hard
to
make
sure
it
does.
Please
donate
money
to
these.

The
water
savings
listed
in
the
comparative
cost
tables
are
stunning
option.
A
reveals
that
the
golf
course
requires
significant
water
and
more
funding
in
order
to
remain
operational.
Water
is
a
precious
resource.
Drought
is
an
ongoing
concern
here
in
California
and
within
our
Statewide
habit
of
over
pumping
groundwater.
We
are
depleting
our
aquifers
climate
forecast
models
indicate
that
our
recent
rains
are
not
indicative
of
an
end
to
the
drought.
With
our

Dropping
fresh
water
availability
will
become
marginal.
Y

Imagine
the
possibilities
this
approach
might
be
accomplished
by
reaching
out
to
local,
non-profit
organizations
and
open
space
agencies
also
Implement,
and
adopt
a
park
feature
within
the
city,
government
and
harbor
a
new
era
of
neighborhood
participation
by
expanding
wildlife
habitat.
We
can
foster
a
new
wave,
a
local
park
stewardship
where
everyone
can
experience
the
beauty
of
our
natural
world.
Volunteer
opportunities
could
open
where
students
participate
in
these
outdoor
workshops,
as
they
learn
about

Foreign
good
evening,
mayor
Paul
vice
mayor
Chao
and
council
members,
my
name
is
Connie

a
resident
here.
34
years
on,
November
15th
I
spoke
to
you
about
plunging
diversity,
biodiversity
worldwide
biodiversity
is
all
the
different
kinds
of
Life
you'll
find
in
one
area
like
the
Bay
Area,
all
the
variety
of
animals,
Birds,
Plants,
butterflies,
bees
and
bacteria
work
together
in
an
intricate
web
to
maintain
balance
and
support

The
San
Jose
Mercury
reported
today
that
beginning

in
Montreal,
the
United

be
holding
their
biodiversity
Summit.
J
A
study
by
the
one
Earth
Journal
was
quoted
that
governments
have
not
yet
succeeded.
In
bending
the
curve
on
biodiversity
decline,
scientists
have
proposed
six
areas
for
action.
One
area
is
greater.
Involvement
of
local
communities
like
us,
Cupertino
has
begun
progress
to
these
goals.
Three

Cupertino
has
an
unusual
City
work
plan,

item
for
analyzing,
the
future
needs
of
Blackberry
Farm
golf
course.
It
is
based
upon
former
Council
discussions
in
2014
and
2015..
J
There
are
two
options
in
the
report:
option
b
is
to
restore
nature
to
16
Acres
of
city
land.
Thousands
of
people
voted
voiced,
their
response
to
surveys
and
other
Outreach
over
half
were
in
favor
of
restoring
nature
that
our
Council
thought
in
such
terms
is
Testament
to
the
values
of
our
community.
What
can
city
council
continue
to
do
three
things?
J
J
Z
Z
I'm
gonna
switch
to
a
common
topic
that
I've
come
here
to
talk
about,
which
is
the
Lehigh
and,
to
a
lesser
extent,
the
Stevens
Creek
quarries
on
November
17,
the
County
held
a
consequential
meeting.
It's
called
the
housing
land
use
and
environment
transportation.
Meeting
affectionately,
called
Hewlett
I
would
recommend
listening
to
that
and
and
Supervisor
smithian
was
absolutely
stunning.
I
have
to
say
during
that
meeting
it
was
really
go,
see
it
anyway.
Z
December
15th,
the
Santa
Clara
County
Planning
Commission,
is
going
to
have
a
meeting
accepting
a
status
report
from
both
Lehigh
and
Stevens
Creek
quarries.
As
you
may
know,
the
students
Creek
Quarry
has
had
no
land
use
authority
to
operate
the
QWERTY
for
I,
don't
know
since
2015.
Their
conditional
use
permit
expired,
which
is
quite
impressive.
They
are.
Z
The
county
allows
them
1300
trucks
per
day,
which
really
is
not
a
limit
realistically
limit
and
moving
on
to
the
Lehigh
Quarry,
so
supervised
committee
has
expressed
his
his
desires
to
be
to
stop
cement
production,
to
terminate
quarrying
and
to
move
forward
with
Reclamation.
I
would
like
to
see
something
one
more
thing
added
to
that,
and
that
is
for
protecting
our
environment
and
our
general
population,
particularly
with
respect
to
truck
traffic.
Z
So
you
may
have
seen
lehi's
announcement
regarding
terminating
cement,
production
and
I
will
tell
you
without
hesitation
that
this
announcement
was
overly
broad,
specifically
they're,
terminating
the
use
of
the
Kiln,
which
was
responsible
for
most
of
the
on-site
air
pollution.
Now
keep
in
mind,
there's
a
lot
of
off-site
air
pollution,
getting
dust
from
the
Quarry
and
we're
also
getting
a
lot
of
pollution
from
the
trucks,
so
stopping
the
Kiln
yep.
It's
a
big
deal.
However.
Lehigh
is
planning
and
has
already
endeavored,
to
have
four
new
businesses
on
site
all
right.
Z
One
of
them
is
cement
distribution
which
they
said
was
going
to
be
temporary.
They
intend
to
continue
importing
cement
and
exporting
it
so
as
a
distribution
center.
Now
keep
in
mind
they
have
they.
Z
Z
The
third
is
operation
of
a
new
rock
plant,
for
which
I
do
not
believe
they
have
land
use
Authority
and
the
last
is
turning
the
site
into
a
landfill,
which
is
what
they
had
talked
about
doing
in
2019.
Instead
of
doing
on-site
Reclamation,
they
intend
to
have
their
publish
their
plans
in
the
first
quarter
of
next
year,
stay
tuned.
Thank
you.
Thank.
F
Apparently
whether
Main
Street
should
be
allowed
to
change
the
makeup
of
the
uses
there
significantly
by
replacing
what
is
supposed
to
be
and
was
determined
for
good
reason
to
be
a
major
retail
shop
that
was
not
restaurant,
and
that
was
where
the
target
built.
That's
the
target
building,
it's
been,
it's
been
more
than
10
years
since
the
resolution
to
make
those
numbers
40,
restaurant
in
the
retail
spaces
and
the
rest,
others
changing
an
eir
or
mnd
or
revisiting
it
to
change
numbers
is
a
little
misrepresentative.
F
The
reason
that
those
limits
were
made
in
the
first
place.
The
reason
was
the
community
and
City
at
the
time
believed
that
it
made
sense
and
the
city
needed
actual
retail,
not
just
restaurants,
so
they
limit
to
40
percent
the
square
footage
of
what
could
be
retail,
in
fact,
under
the
parking
lot,
those
all
those
things
that
are
now
restaurants,
except
for
maybe
one
were
supposed
to
be
shops
and
they
were
designed
architecturally
so
that
they
could
open
up
and
the
shops
were
supposed.
F
F
So
they
said
so
that
was
before
the
loss
and
the
death
of
velco.
We
need
more
retail
now
than
we
needed.
Then
we
don't
need
more
restaurants
and
I
believe
what's
slated
at
what
will
be
whatever
it's
going
to
be
named
or
whatever
it's
going
to
be
at
the
Valco
site,
I'm
sure
we'll
have
far
more
restaurants
than
we
need.
F
My
point
being
it
was
over
a
year
ago,
I
think
it
was
in
November
November,
2nd
I
brought
this
Theory
up.
That
I
had
heard
the
target
may
be
replaced
by
a
restaurant
and
I
was
concerned,
because
I
knew
what
the
recommend
or
requirements
were,
and
the
resolution
was
excuse
me.
A
A
M
M
M
Next
I'll
simply
mention
that
we
had
our
city
tree
lighting.
To
me
this
this
I
think
means
more
than
it
has
the
last
couple
years
because
of
the
pandemic.
The
number
of
people
that
we
saw
over
at
Quinlan
for
the
tree
lighting
I
think
it
gives
us
A
Renewed
sense
of
a
community
and
getting
out
together
being
with
our
fellow
community
members.
M
The
stockelmeyer
house
yeah
I
too,
really
believe
in
preservation
of
History
there's
kind
of
a
similar
type
saying
you
know
those
who
forget
history
are
doomed
to
repeat
it.
You
know,
but
let's
not
lose
our
history.
Let's
I
hope
the
incoming
city
council
will
in
fact
designate
a
certain
amount
of
money.
That's
needed
to
preserve
our
important
buildings
that
we
do
have
so
with
that
I'll
turn
it
back
over
to
the
mayor.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
K
Thank
you,
Mia
Paul
I'm,
going
to
report
three
activities.
I.
Think
a
few
of
us
went
to
the
National
League
of
cities
Summit
in
Kansas
City.
There
are
really
a
lot
of
good
sessions
that
we
can
learn
from
other
cities
practices.
The
two
sessions
that
I
really
like
it's
one
is
are
the
integrated
Public
Safety
using
data-driven
technology,
so
I
I
think
I'll
bring
a
brief
report
to
our
city
manager.
After
that,
and
also
the
other
one
is
talking
about
mental
health
to
build
in
conversations
with
our
residents
about
well-beings
of
residents.
K
So
I'm
really
impressed
with
those
two
presentations
and
another
thing
event
that
we
I
went
is
for
the
Forum
one
of
our
major
employees.
The
Forum
is
the
retirement
community.
They
we
hosted,
they
hosted
a
sustainability
presentation.
We
city
manager,
Pamela,
who
and
Andrea
are
sustainability
manager.
We
had
a
tour
with
the
facility
with
the
brand
new
lead,
certified
Memory
Care
units
and
they
reported
on
what
they
are
doing
with
sustainability,
environmental
friendly
activities
and
Andre
did
a
great
report
of
what
the
city
is
doing.
K
So
there
are
going
to
be
collaborations
between
the
foreign
and
the
city,
we're
hoping
to
make
that
facility
a
a
proud
example
of
how
a
major
facility
can
become
really
energy
sufficient
and
moving
forward,
and
the
last
thing
I
report
is
I
joined
the
chambers,
legislative
action
committee,
and
it's
very
interesting
because
one
lesson
just
mentioned
about
retail.
K
So
it's
by
Jim
Randolph,
who
is
the
executive
VP
of
New
Market,
he
a
designs
and
work
with
Developers
for
retails,
so
his
topic
is
what's
going
on
with
retail
post-pandemic
retail
is
different,
so
a
lot
of
new
information
that
we
can
learn
from
you
know
Chambers
and
other
cities
of
how
we
can
attract
retails.
That
residents
can
benefit
the
residents.
That's
it
thanks.
Thank.
A
D
Hi,
thank
you.
Thank
you
for
clarifying.
Now.
Is
it
time
to
make
a
brief
comment
on
public
comment?
I
think
one
member
mentioned
the
having
hybrid
meeting
to
continue
after
pandemic
I.
Think
one
of
the
city
work
program
items
for
this
year
is
specifically
that
not
only
council
members,
commission
meetings
to
continue
to
be
hybrid
so
on
the
public
can
attend
from
home,
especially
I,
think
seniors
and
families
with
kids
and
people
who
are
disabled
and
really
need
this
opportunity
to
participate
and.
A
N
A
Okay,
thanks
very
much
vice
mayor
Chow.
Please
proceed
with
your
reports.
D
Okay,
so
for
the
Main
Street
item,
I
would
like
staff
to
bring
it
to
the
council's
attention.
I
understand
when
an
item
is
of
high
public
interest,
the
staff
can
refer
to
the
council
rather
than
decide
at
the
staff
level.
Thank
you.
L
All
right
so
I
also
attended
the
national
league
of
cities
conference
in
Kansas
City
that
was
November
16th
through
the
20th.
One
of
the
parts
that
I
really
enjoyed
was
the
tour
of
the
18th
and
Vine
neighborhood
area,
which
was
a
previously
redlined
area
of
the
city.
It
is
now
being
revitalized
and
they're
working
to
prevent
gentrification
and
build
inclusionary
housing
in
that
area.
On
November
27th,
the
Los
Altos
city
council,
member
Lynette,
Lee
ing
mayor
Paul
and
myself
visited
33
Golf
Street
in
San
Francisco
the
dignity
moves
site.
L
There
are
80
temporary
homeless,
individual
units
there
and
I'll.
Let
mayor
Paul,
say
more
about
this,
since
he
coordinated
the
tour
with
dignity,
moves
Elizabeth,
Funk
and
on
December
3rd.
Four
of
us
attended
the
Cupertino
Tree
Lighting,
Event
and
I
want
to
mention
the
Parks
and
Recreation
director.
Rachelle
sander
did
a
wonderful
job
and
so
did
her
excellent
team.
It
was.
It
was
fabulous
to
be
out
there
and
thank
you
to
the
Homestead
High
School
choir
directed
by
Jeff
Morton
and
our
red
suited
special
guest
who
conducted
the
tree
lighting
countdown.
Thank.
A
You
great
red,
suited
special
guest
eh,
all
right
so
well.
As
my
colleagues
mentioned,
we
did
go
to
the
National
League
of
cities.
I
wanted
us
to
re-engage
to
make
sure
that
we
got
involved
with
this
organization,
because
it's
so
critically
important
on
a
national
level
and
I
know
that
you
know
we
have
varying
degrees
of
political
approaches.
A
But
I
know
that
in
our
Council
we
will
run
the
gamut
and
there
are
probably
you
know,
look
out
for
a
council
member
from
Cupertino
being
perhaps
the
president
of
the
National
League
of
cities
in
the
next
couple
of
years,
and
so
I
bid
the
best
of
luck
to
all
that
type
of
effort,
but
also
as
council
member
Moore
alluded
to.
I
was
also
on
that
tour
of
18th
and
Vine
and
in
fact
that's
the
part
of
the
country
that
I'm
originally
from
when
I
go
and
visit.
A
My
parents
I
go
exactly
to
that
area
of
Kansas
City
to
go
pick
up.
Some
barbecue
from
the
granddaddy
of
Kansas
City
Barbecue
Arthur
Bryants
just
asked
a
New
Yorker,
a
writer
Calvin
trillin
from
the
1930s,
but
anyway
it
is
extraordinary.
It
was
truly
redlined,
so
you
read
about
redlining
here
in
California.
Some
of
it
was
a
little
bit
more
subtle,
but
this
is
not
subtle
at
all.
A
This
is
basically
you're
drawing
a
line
around
a
neighborhood
and
saying
this
is
completely
segregated
right,
and
so
it
has
repercussions
up
to
the
modern
day
and
we
got
to
see
in
these
various
spaces
how
they're
revitalizing
these
neighborhoods
piece
by
piece.
I
will
say
that
some
of
the
areas
look
extremely
similar
to
the
type
of
density
that
they're
trying
to
put
into
in
this
area
and
really
throughout
the
country,
so
basically
cement
on
the
two
floors
on
the
bottom,
with
wood
on
the
five
floors
on
top
I
mean
they're
pretty
much
it's
almost
like.
A
Quarry
and
make
public
buildings,
and
so
if
you
had
a
water
bill,
you
went
to
the
water
department
made
out
of
these
same
court
stones,
and
so
it
was
extremely
fascinating
and
we
got
a
lot
of
ideas
about
how
to
you
know,
go
about
things
perhaps
on
the
local
level
as
well,
but
I
think
again,
going
back
to
my
original
statement.
I
wanted
Cupertino
to
get
back
into
this
flow
of
the
National
League
of
cities.
A
I
believe
this
is
our
first
involvement
in
a
few
years,
so
it
was
really
happy
that
councilmember
William
councilmember
Moore
were
there
as
well
very
quickly.
We
had
our
Economic
Development
Committee
interviews
on
the
29th.
That's
a
multi-year
project
by
the
city,
council
and
I'm
really
glad
we
were
able
to
bring
that
to
fruition
in
order
to
populate
that
committee
and
then
earlier
on,
the
29th
I
met
with
representatives
of
the
PGA
TOUR
Superstore,
together
with
our
city
manager,
and
they
have
a
ribbon
cutting
on
Saturday.
A
That
will
outlive
my
time
on
Council
and
as
mayor,
and
so
you'll
have
a
new
mayor
on
that
day.
But
this
is
an
incredible
store.
So
please
go
there:
it's
where
the
Old
Stein
Mart
used
to
be
on
Homestead
next
to
Safeway
over
there
tree
lighting
ceremony
that
was
mentioned
on
Sunday
I
was
invited
by
a
student,
environmental
and
sustainability
group
to
speak
to
their
Zoom
conference
that
they
were
having,
and
that
group
is
called
project.
17.
A
project
17
refers
to
17
United,
Nations
sustainability
initiatives
that
they're
having
people
socialize
and
talk
about
through
an
educational.
You
know
push
internationally,
and
so
that
has
you
know
not
surprisingly,
come
to
our
local
area
as
well.
So
that
was
a
real
privilege
to
be
able
to
interface
with
the
students
there
and
I'm,
just
you
know
so
glad
to
have
that
kind
of
a
community
where
we
have
an
ecosystem
of
students.
A
Talking
about
all
these
various
issues,
it's
a
very
nice
thing
to
see,
and
then
finally
again,
the
city
manager,
Pamela,
Wu
and
I
we
did
meet
today
with
the
sheriff
elect
the
presumptive
sheriff,
elect
I
should
say:
Bob
Johnson
earlier
today,
day
in
City
Hall,
and
we
spoke
to
him
just
you
know
trying
to
get
the
interface
going
because,
of
course,
as
you
saw
earlier
today,
our
Sheriff's
Captain
is
retiring
and
we
have
a
new
Sheriff's
Captain
coming
in.
We
just
want
to
get
a
sense
of
you
know
where
things
are.
A
You
know
going
and
I
I
think
that
Sheriff
Johnson
Bob
Johnson
is
going
to
take
a
relatively
lighter
hand
in
terms
of
making
sure
that
things
are
stable
in
in
the
immediate
and
I
think
that
there
will
be
a
lot
of
good
things
happening
in
the
sheriff's
office,
so,
together
with
the
idea
of
making
sure
that
the
public
is
safe
and
finally
I
apologize.
A
I
am
going
a
little
bit
over
the
time
for
this,
but
I'll
just
say
this
one
last
thing:
I
also
reconnected
our
city
to
the
U.S
mayor's
conferences,
and
these
are
really
excellent.
National
meetings
that
take
place
twice
a
year,
and
so
when
I
went
there
in
June
to
the
conference
that
was
held
in
Reno
and
I've
said
this
before
on
the
diocese,
the
most
sobering
moment
was
knowing
that
people
are
basically
saying
for
active
shooting
incidents.
You
have
to
prepare
your
community
as
if
it
is
something
that
is
going
to
happen.
A
You
have
no
choice.
Unfortunately,
that
is
the
reality
of
our
situation,
and
so
that
was
one
of
the
conversational
points
that
we
had
with
the
incoming
presumptive
Sheriff
elect
and
so
hopefully,
we'll
be
having
those
types
of
socializations
and
types
of
efforts
to
make
our
community
safer.
So
those
are
the
report
outs
for
item
number.
Three
we'll
go
on
to
item
number
four:
this
is
our
report
on
committee
assignments.
Would
anyone
like
to
go
first
on
the
committee
assignments
and
that
is
council
member
Moore
has
a
hand
raised
councilman,
Moore.
L
They
mentioned
the
initiation
of
the
fraud,
waste
and
abuse
program,
which
is
on
our
City's
website
that
we're
working
on
a
library,
construction,
audit,
budget
process,
review
and
policy
review
for
ongoing
support,
and
there
are
multiple
policies
and
procedures
which
are
being
worked
on
and
I
know
that
we
had
a
a
contract
subcommittee
and
and
that
that
project
is
really
being
taken
over
by
Moss
atoms.
L
Next,
we
reviewed
the
monthly
treasurer's
investment
report
and
recommended
it
be
filed
with
Council
of
Interest
was
the
economic
update
regarding
interest
rates,
and
we
reviewed
the
monthly
treasurer's
report
and
requested
supplementary
information
come
to
council
and
recommended
filing
with
the
council,
and
we
continued
the
budget
review
after
a
robust
discussion.
Thank
you.
A
M
Yeah,
thank
you
mayor.
Our
Silicon
Valley
clean
energy.
You
know
climate
change,
climate
change.
It
is
so
important.
So
our
meeting
is
next
week,
but
I
will
say
that
if
anybody
hasn't
seen
it,
the
Strategic
plan
for
silicon's,
clean
and
Silicon
Valley
clean
energy
is
now
a
published
document.
M
You
can
definitely
see
it
electronically
on
their
website
and
I'll
highlight
the
two
that
I
find
the
most
most
important:
the
expanding
their
clean
energy
sources,
meaning
getting
more
power
provided
by
Clean
energy
and
number
two
expanding
the
customer
base.
In
order
to
get
the
clean
energy
to
replace
the
fossil
fuels,
we
got
to
get
more
customers
utilizing
Silicon
Valley,
clean
energy
as
their
supplier,
as
opposed
to
the
more
traditional
PG
e
that
is
going
to
be
relying
more
heavily
on
fossil
fuel
generated
power
and
then
the
I
had
previously
mentioned.
M
You
know
the
rabbit
brush
solar
project,
which
has
been
now
been
turned
on,
and
so
I
have
details:
40
million
watts
of
solar
power
enough
to
provide
ten
thousand
nine
hundred
and
thirty
seven
homes.
That's
going
to
help
our
our
climate
change,
bring
that
down
and
so
I
think
I'll.
Go
ahead
and
stop
there
and
let
it
go
to
the
other
ones,
but
by
all
means,
if,
if
you're,
not
a
customer
of
Silicon
Valley
clean
energy,
give
it
some
very
serious
thought
our
environment
depends
on
it.
Thank
you.
Thank.
D
A
A
No
okay,
so
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
report
out
so,
as
you
know,
I'm
on
the
board
of
the
VTA
until
the
end
of
my
term
and
so
I'm,
also
in
one
of
the
Committees
and
that's
abbreviated,
sstpo,
that's
safety,
security
and
Transit
planning
and
operations,
and
so
we
had
as
a
major
item
on
the
sstpo
meeting
of
the
18th
of
November,
to
talk
about
the
light
rail
system
and
so
the
light
rail
system
throughout
the
pandemic
and
also
due
to
the
tragic
shooting
that
occurred
in
May
of
2021
at
their
Corporation
Yard.
A
They
were
shut
down
for
a
bit
and
so
they're
starting
to
get
their
activities
back
up.
However,
vta's
light
rail
system
is
actually
from
a
fair
box
recovery
perspective
by
a
fairly
significant
margin,
the
most
underperforming
light
rail
system
in
the
entirety
of
the
country,
and
so
we're
looking
at
trying
to
figure
out.
What
do
we
do?
You
know
in
the
future
because
you
know,
frankly,
we
had
a
county-wide
Transit
plan
and
we
were
supposed
to
have
a
bit
of
a
hub
and
spoke
system.
A
The
things
that
we
need
to
be
doing
in
order
to
move
forward
the
downtown
Bart
extension
okay.
So
this
is
a
downtown
underground,
Five,
Mile
extension
of
the
BART
line.
The
federal
estimate
of
this
is
now
9.2
billion
dollars,
and
these
are
real
dollars.
This
is
really
happening
and
on
December
1st,
the
VTA
board
made
some
critical
decisions
to
move
this
forward,
and
so
a
number
of
land
use
decisions
were
made
with
regard
to
eminent
domain
downtown
and
some
significant
funding
allocations
were
made
that
move
forward.
A
This
massive
single
board
drill
that
is
going
to
be
created
and
going
to
be
tunneling.
This
extension
of
the
of
the
BART
system
to
dyrdon
station
downtown
and
so
I,
don't
know
in
the
next
10
or
15
or
20
years.
A
A
If
you'll
pardon
an
expression,
we
sock
away
a
lot
of
money,
and
so
what
ends
up
happening
is
that
we
have
a
lot
of
examinations
as
to
you
know
what
to
do
and
what
might
you
know
become
of
that.
But
the
bottom
line
is
that
you
have
a
lot
of
accountabilities
and
a
lot
of
examinations
on
how
to
go
ahead
and
report
out.
The
audit
committee
has
done
a
lot
to
make
sure
that
we're
adhering
to
both
the
municipal
code
and
state
requirements
on
those
reporting
bases
this
year.
A
Finally,
the
county
unhoused
task
force,
which
is
chaired
this
year
by
Cindy
Chavez,
it
was
started
by
supervisor,
then
supervisor
I
should
say:
Dave
cortezzi
back
in
2020,
right
at
the
very
beginning
of
the
pandemic,
met
for
its
last
meeting
on
November
30th
I'm,
the
representative
of
Cupertino,
as
is
council
member
Moore
to
the
unhoused
task
force
of
the
county,
and
we
gave
various
reports
out
to
our
member
jurisdictions,
which
comprised
the
cities
of
the
county
as
to
our
respective
efforts
to
try
to
combat
this
problem
and
I
will,
in
the
interest
of
full
disclosure
state
that
I,
really,
you
know,
from
a
substantive
perspective,
am
trying
to
socialize
as
much
as
possible
the
idea
of
getting
some
Supportive
Housing
and
services
in
Cupertino,
because
I
think
we
really
need
it.
A
These
types
of
issues
crop
up
all
the
time
and
they're
not
getting
any
better.
So
that
is
my
report
out
and
so
we'll
go
ahead
and
move
on
to
item
number
five.
This
is
our
report
on
subcommittee
assignments.
Would
anyone
like
to
start
us
out
on
subcommittee
assignment
reports
and
I
see
that
councilmember
Moore
has
a
hand
raised.
L
So
I
categorize
the
unhoused
task
force
as
being
a
subcommittee,
so
I
didn't
report
out
on
the
previous
item.
So
on
November
30th
I
also
attended
the
unhoused
task
force
with
mayor
Paul
and
Council
Representatives
across
from
the
county,
and
we
had
a
follow-up
meeting
with
staff
on
December
5th
to
work
on
our
meeting
prep
and
process
and
discuss
options
moving
forward
to
serve
our
unhoused
community
and
we
also
shared
the
33
golf
site
visit
that
we
did,
which
is
a
project
by
dignity,
moves
with,
as
I
mentioned
before,
80
units.
L
L
Each
one
was
about
eight
by
eight
and
each
little
building
had
two
of
these
units
together,
which
could
be
lifted
by
a
forklift
onto
the
back
of
a
tractor
trailer
so
that
they
could
take
apart
the
the
the
the
project
when
they
were
completed
and
they
planned
to
keep
it
there.
For
a
few
years
until
a
new
development
is
ready
to
be
constructed
in
that
space.
A
Okay,
okay,
thank
you,
council
member,
Moore,
I,
don't
see
further
hands
raised
or
indicators.
Did
anyone
want
to
report
out
on
a
subcommittee
activity
if
not
I
have
a
couple
of
subcommittees
that
all
indicate
since
our
time
on
the
15th
first
is
the
bub
Road
subcommittee,
council,
member
Willie
and
I,
but
I
have
to
say
mostly
council
member
Willie
that
you
have
taken
the
I.
Don't
even
I
think
saying
the
laboring
war
is
a
miscarriage
of
Justice.
You
have
really
LED
this
effort.
A
Councilmember
Willie
and
I'm
deeply
appreciative
of
you
reaching
out
to
the
various
Property
Owners
on
the
on
the
east
side
of
Bud
Road
between
Stevens
Creek
Boulevard
on
the
North
and
then
McClellan
road
on
the
on
the
south
side
to
see
what
the
possibilities
are,
and
so
we
did
meet
with
a
couple
of
people
in
City
Hall
earlier
this
this
month
and
one
was
a
developer,
a
local
developer
and
one
was
a
real
estate
broker
and
there
was
a
lot
of
good
information
with
regard
to
you
know
kind
of
thinking
through
the
various
types
of
evaluations
people
are
making
in
the
realm
of
affordable
housing
right
now,
and
it
seemed
to
me
that
the
tax
credits
were
extremely
important
and
when
people
are
calculating
out
what
makes
sense
and
what
pencils
out
they're
doing
a
lot
lot
of
these
pragmatic
valuations
based
upon
what
kind
of
money
is
going
to
be
coming
in
on
on
the
taxation
based
level
and
it
seems
like
affordable
housing,
is
to
the
industry
up
to
after
a
certain
point
of
development
kind
of
the
no-brainer
right
now.
A
So
it
looks
quite
hopeful
with
regard
to
being
able
to
have
socialized
that
I'm
glad
that
we
put
that
forward
and
then,
with
regard
to
the
follow-up
on
what
council
member
Moore
was
mentioning.
Yes,
we
did
have
some
really
good
discussions
on
the
unhoused
task
force.
A
I
I
do
have
I'm
going
to
save
my
comments,
basically
till
the
end
of
this
meeting,
because
I
actually
have
a
a
request
for
a
future
agenda
item
at
that
time,
and
so,
when
we're
talking
about
visiting
the
dignity
move
site
at
33,
Goff,
Street
and
whatnot,
you
know,
I
I
did
I
will
mention
that
the
unhoused
task
force
I
asked
whether
it
would
be
a
good
idea
to
declare
a
shelter
crisis
and
so
that
that
is
essentially
the
Crux
of
my
my
question
for
future.
A
AA
Thank
you,
mayor,
Paul,
I
won't
take
up
too
much
time.
I,
don't
have
any
update
for
the
community
or
Council
other
than
really
wanted
to
take
a
moment
to
thank
Council
for
a
very
productive
year
as
we're
near
the
upcoming
story
and
Ceremony.
This
coming
Friday
I
want
to
just
use
this
moment
to
thank
each
one
of
you
for
your
hard
work.
Your
dedication
in
furthering
your
vision,
leading
the
city
in
the
right
direction,
and,
with
that
in
mind,
I
am
looking
forward
to
2023
with
greater
accomplishment.
Thank
you.
A
AB
You
got
it
all
right,
great
I
think
we
got
it
now,
sorry
about
that
little
glitch.
Thank
you,
mayor
Paul,
members
of
the
city
council,
city
manager,
Wu
just
want
to
give
a
brief
overview
kind
of
at
a
high-flying.
You
know
General
level
of
the
Community
Development
Department
and
what
it
consists
of
I've
been
with
the
city
one
year
now
and
in
this
acting
position
for
just
about
one
month
and.
AB
Against
this,
okay,
so
just
to
get
the
Community
Development
Department
at
a
glance,
we
essentially
have
four
divisions
code
enforcement
is
arguably
a
subset
of
the
building
division,
but
the
housing
division
is
essentially
responsible
for
the
management
and
administration
of
everything
related
to
affordable
housing,
including
the
city's
Community
Development
block
grant
program,
the
planning
division,
which
is
really
my
background.
Primarily
we
do
things
like
administer
the
general
plan
long-range
planning
issues
like
that,
but
we
also
process
discretionary
permits.
AB
A
lot
of
coordination
with
other
divisions
within
the
community
development
department.
I
could
say
the
same
thing
about
the
building
division
as
well.
Our
building
division
is
probably
really
our
high
volume.
AB
Our
front
line
division
that
most
of
the
Community
Homeowners
contractors
interact
with
the
most
responsible
for
a
lot
of
permit
review
and
approval
plan
checks,
field
inspections,
and
then
we
also
have
our
fourth
division
again
is
Code
Enforcement,
which
also
touches
a
lot
of
bases,
interacts
really
with
a
lot
of
members
of
the
public,
a
lot
of
other
divisions
and
departments
within
the
city.
AB
This
is
an
organizational
chart.
It's
a
little
bit
dated
and
I
think
overstates
the
staff
size
right
now,
but
it
gives
you
an
idea
of
how
the
department
is
laid
out
with
housing
manager,
planning
manager.
We
have
a
one
departmental
analyst
management
analyst
and
currently
our
Chief
Building
official
also
acts
as
the
assistant
director
of
the
department.
AB
Our
housing
department
really
consists
of
two
people,
so
they're
kind
of
a
small
very
tightly
run
unit.
The
rest
of
the
staff
is
pretty
fairly
equally
Spread,
spread
over
the
other
three
divisions
in
the
department
and
probably
as
much
as
any
Department.
We
really
are
not
in
our
own
silos,
there's
a
lot
of
interaction
among
the
department
as
a
whole
and
even
city-wide,
so
and
with
also
a
lot
of
public
contact.
AB
Let's
briefly,
now
touch
on
the
different
divisions.
Again,
it's
the
housing
division
is
really
a
two-person
group.
We
have
the
housing
manager
and
one
other
staff.
They
administer
really
everything
related
to
affordable
housing
in
the
city,
whether
it's
a
city
funded
or
Community,
Development
block
grant
funded
program
right
now.
There's
a
notice
of
funding
availability
that
went
out
that
is
open
through
February
related
to
our
housing
and
Human
Services
Program.
AB
The
below
market
rate
program
is
probably
one
of
the
more
familiar
to
people
which
administers
the
city's
142
below
market
rate,
rental
units
and
121
ownership
units.
There's
a
significant
waiting
list,
as
you
might
imagine,
in
most
cities
in
Silicon
Valley,
to
get
to
qualify
for
this
program.
AB
In
addition,
the
housing
manager
also
is
the
primary
liaison
to
the
city's
Housing
Commission
and
is
really
responsible
for
carrying
out
the
work
program,
which
ranges
quite
a
bit.
The
support
for
the
unhoused.
We
have
a
program
for
De,
Anza
students,
homeless
jobs,
program,
other
special
projects,
housing
coordinates
and
a
lot
of
issues
related
to
homelessness,
particularly
with
their
public
works
department
and
Emergency
Operations.
AB
And
you
know
all
other
programs
again
I
mean
there's
a
lot
for
a
two-person
division.
There's
a
lot
to
coordinate,
I,
think
even
more
so
as
we've
sort
of
ended
entered
the
coven
phase
and
things
like
homelessness
have
become
more
heightened
issues
moving
to
our
planning
division
and
you
can
kind
of
break
planning
down
really
into
long-range
and
current
planning,
you're
thinking
of
long
range
as
working
on,
say
your
general
plan
or
like
right
now,
your
housing
element.
These
are
really
the
documents
that
identify
what
the
city's
future
wants
to
be.
AB
What
are
its
objectives
and
goals?
That's
one
aspect,
aspect
of
planning
as
well
as
current
planning,
which
you
know
it
could
largely
be
characterized
by
development
projects
that
come
in
and
really
reviewing
to
see
that
they
are
consistent
with
furthering
the
city's
goals
and
objectives
on
this
slide.
I
just
wanted
to
have
a
couple
again,
quick
pictures
to
kind
of
you
know
distinguish
say
what
planning
is
looking
at
from
building
how
we
kind
of
deal
with
projects
more
the
conceptual
and
early
phase.
So,
like
the
photo
on
the
left,
that's
a
typical
site
plan.
AB
We
would
be
looking
at
you
know.
This
is
for
the
former
Oak
site.
The
Westport
project,
where
you
know
planners,
are
thinking
in
terms
of
more
of
things
like
land
use
and
parking,
and
how
does
the
site
lay
out,
and
the
elevation
at
the
bottom
of
the
page
is
a
good
indication
too,
of
conceptually.
What's
a
building
going
to
look
like
what's
its
height,
what
are
the
materials?
What's
its
appearance
and
generally
from
their
projects,
get
more
defined
as
they
head
towards
the
construction
stage.
AB
There's
a
lot
of
different
functions
within
the
Planning
Department
Public,
counter
service,
Vault,
Planning
and
Building
are
very
active,
I
understand.
In
the
first
11
months
of
this
year,
the
Department's
received
about
20
000
emails
for
different
types
of
contact,
also
development
and
use
permits
the
department
has
either
processed
or
has
actively
filed
about
270
planning
permits.
Right
now,
as
I
said
earlier,
we've
got
our
our
long
range
plan.
The
housing
element
has
obviously
been
a
big
project
the
last
year
and
we
have
other
City
work
program
items
that
fall
into
that
category.
AB
There's
a
lot
of
coordinating
with
the
build
building
department
on
plan
review
and
on
business
licenses,
where
you're
checking
for
coordination
with
commercial
projects
to
make
sure
that
it's
an
allowed
land
use
within
that
zoning,
District
and
I.
Think
with
all
of
Community
Development.
There's
a
lot
of
collaboration
between
Building
Code
Enforcement,
a
lot
of
work
that
goes
on
between
Public
Works
and
Community
Development,
as
well
as
economic
development.
AB
There
are
a
number
of
committees
that
the
department
interacts
with
regularly
the
environmental
Review
Committee,
which
is
looking
at
projects
that
are
subject
to
the
California
Environmental
Quality
Act,
the
city's
design,
Review
Committee,
more
specific
ad
hoc
type
committees
like
the
community
engagement
plan,
strategic
advisory
committee,
which
is
focused
on
the
housing
element
and
they're,
also
Administrative
Hearings
of
plannings
involved
with
on
lower
level
discretionary
permits
moving
to
the
city's
Building
Division
again.
AB
You
can
look
at
this,
the
numbers
here
and
you
get
an
idea
of
the
amount
of
activity
that's
going
on.
This
is
through
the
first
11
months
of
the
year.
There
have
been
over
10
000
inspections
performed,
and
this
is
with
five
inspectors,
which
actually
actually
surprised
me
just
at
that
number
of
how
much
activity
that
is
you've
had
about
2200
building
permits
created
again.
These
are
all
structural
mechanical
electrical
Plumbing.
All
the
things
that
go
into
constructing
and
building
almost
2
000
building
permits
have
been.
Y
AB
And
over
2
700
plan
reviews
combining
the
Planning
and
Building
divisions
have
occurred
in
the
first
11
months.
So
again,
this
is
a
pretty
high
volume
for
the
amount
of
staff
that
there
is
I
just
wanted
to
add
this
slide.
So
it
kind
of
revisits
the
same
Westport
project
to
distinguish
as
projects
get
more
defined
and
progress
towards
the
building
permit
and
construction
phase
that
the
level
of
the
plan
gets
much
more
developed
and
you're.
AB
Our
code
enforcement
division
is
again
fairly
self-explanatory.
They're
involved
with
everything
related
to
the
code
and
making
sure
that
it's
followed,
whether
it's
a
planning
related
issue
or
a
building
code.
I've
got
a
number
of
pictures.
I
think
that
are
kind
of
self-explanatory
with
the
sort
of
issues
that
code
enforcement
faces
on
a
regular
basis,
issues
of
construction
that
likely
required
permits,
but
may
not
have
gotten
them
dealing
with
properties
that
could
either
be
abandoned
or
just
very
poorly
maintained
that
could
potentially
raise
safety
issues
or
even
public
nuisance
issues.
AB
If
they're
let
go
for
an
extended
period
of
time
again,
issues
here
with
like
Plumbing
or
even
electrical,
where
work
has
gone
on
that
was
unpermitted
that
could
create
an
unsafe
condition.
All
of
this
kind
of
falls
in
the
purview
of
Code
Enforcement,
then
you
have
more
things
that
could
potentially
create
a
nuisance
like
outside
storage
or
outdoor
activities
that
are
just
really
not
keeping
a
neighborhood
character.
AB
AB
AB
You
know.
Code
enforcement
is
largely
driven
by
residents.
Concerns
that
are
raised
again,
focused
similar
to
building
and
planning,
is
on
health
and
safety
and
quality
of
life
issues.
You
know
where
you're
trying
to
avoid
any
sort
of
blighted
conditions
or
concentration
of
them,
obviously
in
a
very
desirable
Community,
like
Cupertino
you're,
looking
at
maintaining
properties
consistent
with
property
values,
a
neighborhood
character,
and
you
try
to
address
issues
that
you
know
are
not
allowed
to
accumulate.
AB
So,
if
you're,
seeing
things
in
neighborhoods
that
could
be
in
transition
or
in
distress
trying
to
head
off
things
before
they
become
larger
problems
or
or
nuisances
within
an
area.
And
of
course
one
of
the
final
issues
for
code
enforcement
is
compliance
with
all
federal
state
and
local
laws.
So
what
I
don't
have
at
the
end
is
a
pretty
follow-up
slide
to,
let
you
know
I'm
done
with
the
presentation,
so
I'll
just
say
so
now
that
that
concludes
the
presentation.
A
lot
of
you
I'm
sure
are
really
familiar
with
the
the
department.
C
AB
A
Well,
acting
director
Connolly.
Thank
you
very
much.
I'll
make
a
brief
comment
on
this
I'm,
very
proud
of
our
city
and
proud
that
we
were
able
to
bring
this
series
of
updates
to
the
to
the
public,
and
so
this
is
something
that
I
started
this
year.
Hopefully
we
can
repeat
it
every
half,
year
or
so,
and
cycle
through
the
Departments
to
give
that
overview.
Update
I.
This
is
excellent.
I'm
just
I'm
really
really
pleased
with
how
this
worked
out.
A
So
thanks
very
much
city
manager
and
our
various
department,
heads
and
managers
that
did
provide
these
updates
over
the
last
several
months.
A
We're
on
to
our
consent,
calendar
folks
and
I'll
remind
everyone
that
item
number
11
was
already
was
already
continued
to
the
December
20th
meeting
per
our
postponements
on
the
beginning
of
our
of
our
meeting,
and
so
would
anyone
like
to
speak
to
eight
through
a
oh
thank
you,
8,
9,
10
or
or
12
on
consent,
calendar
and
so
I
do
have
a
blue
card
here
for
someone
who'd
like
to
speak
on
item
number
12..
But
would
anyone
like
to
pull
an
item?
Let
me
pull
my
zoom
function
back
up.
A
I,
don't
see
anybody
with
a
hand
raised,
and
so
let
me
ask
our
member
of
the
public
who
is
here
with
the
blue
card.
Wrote
it
did
you
want
to
pull
the
consent
item,
or
did
you
simply
want
to
speak
to
it,
pull
it
okay?
So
we
have
a
request
from
member
of
public
for
item
number
12
to
be
pulled.
May
I
hear
a
motion
on
items
eight
through
ten,
as
recommended
in
the
agenda
council
member
Wooley
moves
eight
through
ten
correct.
A
A
M
A
Thank
you
very
much
and
we
are
on
to
item
12..
Let's
go
ahead
and
start
with
our
member
of
the
public
who
requested
that
this
be
pulled
as
she's
coming
up
to
the
lectern
I
will
read
the
subject.
This
is
consider
authorizing
the
city
manager
to
award
a
Construction
contract
with
contingency
budget
for
the
Blackberry
Farm
pool
improvements,
Capital
Improvement
program
or
CIP
project
welcome,
Rhoda
and
so
Rhoda.
Why
don't
we
do
it
this
way?
Z
It
okay
I,
will
definitely
like
to
speak
later,
but
for
now
reason
to
pull
is
seven
hundred
thousand
dollars
is
a
lot
of
money
Project's
been
known
apparently,
since
2019
didn't
appear
on
the
Sip.
Why
and
I
think
that
for
a
project
of
this
magnitude,
the
public
needs
to
have
more
engagement,
both
fiscally
and
what
and
what
what
the
project
is
entails
and
the
and
the
details
are
of
okay.
A
Understood,
thank
you.
Rhoda
and
I'll
bring
this
back
to
our
city
manager.
If
you
would
like
to
introduce
our
speaker
from
the
staff
on
this
item
number
12..
Thank
you
sure.
AA
Thank
you,
mayor
Paul,
introducing
acting
assistant
city
manager,
Matt
Morley,.
AC
Good
evening,
thank
you.
So
this
item
is
really
a
capital
maintenance
project.
So
we
we
have
a
lot
of
things
going
on
in
the
Blackberry
Farm
area,
and
this
one
is
the
resurfacing
of
the
pool
plaster
inside
of
the
pools.
It's
a
necessary
project
in
order
to
keep
the
pools.
Functional
includes
no
other
amenities,
other
than
Ada
upgrades
that
are
required
in
order
to
be
compliant
with
with
the
Ada.
It's
a
fairly
straightforward
project.
Capital
maintenance
was
in
the
CIP
in
2019
2021
and
this
year
as
well.
AC
So
it's
in
it's
in
the
CIP
listed
in
the
in
the
book
with
the
other
projects
for
folks
to
see
so
we're
we're
looking
to
advance
this
project.
So
we
can
keep
the
pools
in
good
condition.
We
know
they're
heavily
used
the
public
really
likes
them,
we'd
like
to
keep
them
open
every
year.
That
concludes
my
report.
Okay,.
A
Morally,
and
so
let's
go
to
any
members
of
the
public
that
would
like
to
speak
on
this
item
before
we
move
it
back
to
the
council
and
wrote
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
have
your
blue
card
double,
as
your
public
comment
is
that
okay
with
the
city
clerk
or
Madison
City
Clerk,
did
you
want
another
blue
card
filled
out
because
as
of
right
now,
I
don't
actually
have
any
Zoom
hands
raised,
and
so,
let's,
let's
go
to
Rudder,
then
Rhoda
you'll
have
three
minutes
to
speak
on
this
item.
Number
12.
Z
Z
This
building
effect
was
part
of
a
surprise
scope,
Greek
Greek,
so
you
know
we've
known
about
it
since
2019.
Why
wasn't
on
the
Sip
700
000
is
a
lot
of
money
and,
as
we've
done
with
the
golf
course
I
think
we
should
look
at
the
financial
viability
of
this
of
the
pool
business.
We
have
no
idea
how
much
our
tax
dollars
are
subsidizing
this
business
because
it
has
been
removed
from
the
Enterprise
fund.
So
I
think
that
we
need
more
information
before
embarking
on
this
project.
Z
Do
we
need
two
pools
in
a
riparian
habitat
so
specifically
just
to
the
smaller
pools?
Originally,
the
smaller
pool
had
a
slide
and
a
diving
board.
Well,
the
diving
board
went
away
shortly
after
the
city
bought
it
and
now,
all
of
a
sudden,
the
slide
has
disappeared
in
2022.
The
only
problem
that
we
were
aware
of
the
slide
was
during
the
Sip
that
the
city
manager
had
said
that
it
required
more
training
from
from
from
staff
and
it
required,
and
but
it's
certainly
having
the
slide.
Z
There
didn't
justify,
having
a
splash
pad
when
you
look
at
the
dollars
and
cents
for
providing
use
employment
versus
making
a
500
000
investment
as
flashpad,
so
that
that's
kind
of
what
happened
to
the
the
slide.
The
other
thing
I
would
like
to
see.
You
know
potentially
and
I
know
that
this
you've
already
worked
quite
a
bit
in
getting
these
plans.
Developed
and
I
only
had
a
few
seconds
to
look
at
them.
Z
Z
One
of
the
things
for
Ada
I'm
wondering
whether
we
could
kind
of
where
there's
potential
for
doing
multi-purpose,
such
as
having
something
that
could
act
as
NDA
gender,
neutral
family
changing
room
because
it
looks
like
again.
I
only
had
a
few
minutes
that
the
only
way
to
kind
of
go
into
an
ADA
Bathroom
is
that
then
you're
suddenly
sharing
a
female
or
male
space
so
having
a
universal
opportunities.
I
think
that
that
would
be
a
good
thing
also.
Z
So
we
are
I
know
we're
doing
really
well
financially
for
now,
but
we
are
entertaining
entering
a
time
of
Economic
and
uncertainty
and
I
sure
would
love
to
see
the
city
invest
money
on
permanent,
affordable
housing,
not
these
developer
projects
that
Sunset
after
45
or
55
years,
depending
whether
they're
owned
or
rented.
Z
So
please,
let's
look
at
how
we're
spending
our
precious
tax
dollars
and
also
I'd
like
to
see
a
little
more
Community
involvement
before
jumping
into
this
program,
because
I
think
that
we
have
some
opportunities
for
doing
some
tweaks
here
to
make
it
a
little
better.
Thank
you.
A
B
A
Great,
so
no
further
blue
cards
no
hands
raised
on
Zoom,
let's
go
ahead
and
bring
this
back
to
council
before
we
do
that,
because
there's
only
one
public
comment,
director,
Morley
or
Madam
city
manager.
Do
you
want
to
speak
to
any
of
the.
A
Nothing
further
than
that,
okay,
okay,
so
we
do
have
the
item.
There
is
recommended
action
expressed
concern
from
a
member
of
the
public.
Would
anyone
like
to
start
with
comments
or
questions
and
follow-up
to
staff?
Councilmember,
we'll
leave
your
hand
is
raised
and
I
don't
see
further
hands
raised,
although
now
I
see
councilman
white,
so
let's
go
with
councilmember.
M
M
M
So
then
we
kind
of
understand
that
700
000,
if
that
truly
is
the
right
number
for
draining
the
pool
re-plastering
it
refilling
and
two
pools
rather
than
one
and
whatever
the
Ada
upgrade,
then
I
would
say
that
that
would
be
in
line
if
it's
significantly
different
than
that,
then
perhaps
you
can
tell
us
more
detail.
AC
So
the
the
estimate
that
we
have
the
engineer's
estimate
is
targeting
a
20
Ada
element
for
the
project.
The
rest
of
it
would
be
the
pool.
The
actual.
The
actual
bids
will
will
tell
us
exactly
where
we're
at
when
we
land
on
those,
but
that's
the
target
for
the
for
the
entire
project.
So
20
of
the
of
the
target
of
the
project
cost
would
be
Ada
improvements,
so.
M
K
Thank
you,
mayor
Paul.
This
is
a
question
for
assistant
city
manager
and
director
Matt
Morley.
So
in
order
for
the
pool
to
be
functioning
in
the
summer
upcoming
summer,
this
is
a
necessary
Capital
maintenance
program.
Is
that
correct.
AC
Yeah
I
mean
it's
always
possible
that
we
could
nurse
it
along
for
another
summer,
so
I
wouldn't
I,
wouldn't
put
the
absolute
on
it,
but
we
have
already
put
a
Band-Aid
on
this
one
to
do
some
patching
to
the
plaster.
The
plaster
is
rough,
so
it's
not
as
pleasant
to
when
it's
rough
and
aged
for
for
the
users.
So
we
we're
we're
at
the
point
where
it
needs
to
be
done.
It's
going
to
be
done
this
year
or
next
year.
K
Thank
you
amen,
so
another
question
is
the
residents
that
all
of
a
sudden
the
slide
was
gone
but
I
remember
there
were
a
couple
reports
on
this
that
the
slide
was
not
safe.
Does
my
is
my
memory
serving
me
correct?
You.
AC
Are
correct
this
the
slide
had
reached
the
end
of
its
of
its
serviceable
life.
There's
this
funny
way
of
handling
slides
in
Pools
by
the
state
and
that
they're
considered
an
amusement
park
ride,
which
is
a
bit
strange,
but
it's
the
it's
what
we
what
we
deal
with,
so
it
has
a
very
high
level
of
safety
and
maintenance
requirement,
so
that
slide
was
that
was
slides.
Life
had
ended,
so
our
replacement
suggestion
had
been
the
splash
pad.
AC
Obviously
that
wasn't
a
preferred
alternative,
so
we
can
always
do
something
further
in
in
the
future.
I
will
say
that
the
pool
with
the
slide
is
is
still
is,
is
a
functional
pool
and
it's
still
great
for
a
recreational
play
for
a
pool
perspective.
So
the
the
pool
facility
is
still
very
functional
and
useful.
L
Okay,
so
I
was
just
looking
up
contingency
amounts
and
the
20
does
seem
a
little
bit
high
and
I
was
reading
that
San
Jose
limits
there
contingencies
for
Public
Works
projects
to
10
to
15
percent
of
the
total
contract
amount,
depending
on
the
the
type
of
the
project,
so
I'm
wondering
if
we
have
any
policy
on
contingency
amounts
and
is
that
something
that
we
should
perhaps
be
referring
to
to
Moss
atoms
as
we
go
through
the
our
purchasing
and
contracts
portion
of
our
policy
review.
Great.
Thank
you.
Councilman.
AC
Moore
through
the
mayor,
we
we
don't
have
a
policy
or
a
set
contingency
amount,
I'm,
not
aware
of
of
a
set
amount.
I
know,
there's
not
one
in
the
public
contract
code,
which
is
largely
our
governing
document.
We
use
between
10
and
20.
AC
We
try
and
use
a
10
contingency
on
normal
projects
where
we
have
a
more
complex
or
a
project
where
there's
a
potential
for
unforeseen
circumstances
like
this
one,
where
we're
taking
plaster
off
of
a
wall,
and
we
may
see
something
underneath
that
needs
to
be
fixed,
we
tend
to
increase,
recommend
an
increased
contingency.
Of
course,
it's
always
the
council's
discretion
to
reduce
that,
but
the
that
that
would
potent
lead
to
a
potential
where
we
have
to
stop
a
project
and
come
back
to
Council
in
order
to
to
complete
it.
So
that's
the
reason.
L
Moore,
so
we
could
potentially
limit
the
contingency
to
15
in
this
contract
and
when
we
make
a
motion
include
that
that
would
be
an
option.
And
then
what
would
happen
is
it
would?
It
would
come
back
to
us
as
I
understand
if
we
need
to
erase
that
okay,
more
money,
yeah
all
right.
D
Thank
you
so
I
think
the
same
question
keeps
being
asked
for
every
contract
and
in
this
agenda
package
we
see
only
the
staff
report,
but
I
see
that
the
The
Proposal
was
published
on
November
9th.
So
the
the
code
for
proposal
or
call
forbid
could
have
been
included
in
the
agenda
package
with
more
detail
and
I.
D
A
Okay,
well,
let
me
turn
this
over
back
to
director
Marley,
and
so
did
you
want
to
speak
to
the
question
from
Vice
Merchant.
AC
Thank
you
mayor
as
we
called
out
in
the
in
the
staff
report.
We
did
identify
that
this
project
is
on
a
tight
timeline
and
we're
trying
to
push
it
as
quickly
as
we
can
so
that
we
can
open
in
in
time
for
the
swim
season.
With
that
we
have
bids,
we
extended
the
bid
date
because
of
some
Amendment
addendums
to
the
bid
packet
that
we
made
along
the
way.
So
the
bids
are
due
this
week.
AC
We'll
do
the
analysis
this
week
and
be
able
to
make
a
determination
on
who
to
award
to
because
of
the
time
frame.
We
didn't
want
to
wait
all
the
way
until
the
end
of
January
for
an
award
given
given
the
turnover
in
Council
on
the
focus
in
the
meeting.
So
that's
the
reason
for
the
authorization
for
the
city
manager
manager
to
award.
So
this
is
a
little
bit
atypical.
D
Thank
you
for
the
update
later,
but
I
I'm
just
trying
to
understand.
So
this
project
was
from
the
2000s
2021
CIP,
so
it's
being
a
a
year.
So
why
are
we
under
such
tight
timeline
just
trying
to
understand?
Maybe
there
were
something
unexpected
delay:
yeah
I
hate
it
when
the
console
were
asked
to
make
this
teaching
just
because
there
is
time
timeline.
AC
I
understood
so
the
the
reason
for
the
tight
timeline
is
the
design
work
that
was
needed
to
make
this
happen
and
the
the
process
in
getting
the
design
complete,
took
us
up
to
this
time
of
year,
so
that
from
a
from
a
bid
process
and
getting
construction
scheduled,
that's
where
we
landed.
AC
AC
I
could
see
where,
if
the
council
didn't
want
to
do
that,
that
you
could
ask
us
to
come
back
with
the
bids
at
a
later
time,
and
we
can
certainly
pursue
that
as
well.
We're
trying
to
streamline
the
process
and
make
it
sort
of
work
at
the
at
the
speed
of
business
in
terms
of
getting
things
done.
AC
A
Okay,
well,
thank
you
very
much
director
acting
assistant
city
manager,
Morley,
and
so
we
will
go
ahead
and
bring
this
back.
I.
Consider
that
the
round
of
questions-
and
so
if
we
have
commentary,
do
you
have
follow-up
questions,
councilmember,
Moore,
there's
a
affirmative
nod
and
council
member
way
you
had
mentioned
that
you
had
comments,
and
so
let
me
go
and
finish
off.
Questions
with
council
member
Moore
before
I
entertain
a
motion
for
further
discussion.
Councilmember
Moore.
L
Okay,
I
want
to
make
sure
I
understand
so
in
our
agenda
item
12
item
two
authorize:
the
director
of
Public
Works
to
allow
a
construction
contingency
budget
of
here.
It's
20
percent
of
the
Construction
contract
amount
to
address
unforeseen
conditions
discovered
during
construction,
and
that
is
not
the
same
as
a
change
order.
L
So
could
you
just
to
for
our
edification,
explain
what
the
difference
is
between
a
change
order
and
what
unforeseen
conditions
mean.
Thank
you.
Yeah.
AC
Thank
you.
The
the
unforeseen
conditions
would
actually
lead
to
a
change
order,
so
it
it's
the
condition
that
leads
to
the
additional
cost
in
a
swimming
pool.
There's
things
under
underneath
the
plaster,
for
example,
lighting
drainage,
structural
support,
rebar
things
like
that.
So
if
we
were
to
see
a
condition
underneath
the
plaster
that
we
hadn't
anticipated,
we
would
take
a
look
at
that.
The
contractor
would
provide
us
proposed
cost
for
for
addressing
that
issue.
That
would
be
the
change
and
we
would
issue
a
change
order
if
we
were
in
agreement
with
it.
L
Okay
and
so
I
went
looking
that
up
as
well
and
I'm,
seeing
it
down
to
10
for
for
change.
Orders
before
going
to
another
City's
council
is:
is
there
Municipal,
Code,
so
they're
there
I
am
seeing
some
policies
around
that
that
are
being
codified,
so
I
am
kind
of
interested
in
that
topic
now
and
wondering
what
what
number
is
actually
most
prudent
for
us
to
to
have
in
this
agreement.
Okay,
thank
you.
A
Okay
really
good
question,
so
let
me
go
to
my
fellow
council
members
to
see
if
there
is
a
motion
that
we'd
like
to
put
on
the
table
for
item
number
12
before
we
entertain
further
discussion.
I
see
a
hand
raised
from
council
member
way
and
council
member
Moore
your
hand
is
still
up
as
well.
Let's
go
to
council
member
y
first.
K
I
like
to
make
a
promotion
as
proposed
by
staff,
okay,.
A
A
L
So
I
would
like
a
substitute
motion
that
we
we
move
the
recommended
action
item
one
but
for
item
two.
We
lower
the
contingency
budget
to
be
more
in
line
with
San
Jose
at
this
point,
so
that
would
be
15
percent
of
the
construction
content.
Contract
amount
to
address
unforeseen
conditions
discovered
during
construction.
A
D
Yeah
I'll,
second,
that
and
could
I
add
more
Amendment.
D
That
is
now
on
the
table.
Vice
versa.
The
future
agenda
item
on
contract
should
include
the
big
documents,
if
it's
or
for
proposal
or
rfpi,
if
you
and
those
documents
should
be
included
in
the
agenda
packet.
Thank.
A
You,
okay,
let
me
see
if
I
understand
your
friendly
Amendment
correctly
vice
mayor
Charles,
so
you're
asking
for
instruction
the
staff
is
that
correct
for
future.
D
A
Let
me
refer
this
to
staff
before
I.
Ask
for
a
second
I'd
like
to
work
with
you
on
this,
but
I'm
not
sure
that
we're
properly
noticed
for
for
this
type
of
instruction.
So
what
would
you?
What
would
you
suggest
attorney
Jensen
with
regard
to
it?
It
connects
to
this
right
in
terms
of
the
underlying
substance
and
requests,
but
how
how
would
well,
assuming
that
it
is
properly
noticed.
I.
Guess
that's
fine,
but
if
it's
not,
how
should
we,
you
know
advise
to
tweak
it
to?
N
So
so
it
could
be
requested
as
a
future
agenda
item
at
that
sort
of
General
policy
is
not
noticed
for
a
discussion.
I
think
we
would
have
to
look
at
it
carefully
and
see
if
it
was
appropriate
topic
for
Council
Direction,
because
it
does
potentially
intrude
into
the
city
manager's
ability
to
prepare
staff
reports
and
manage
your
staff,
but
but
I'm
not
prepared
to
opine
on
that
at
this
time.
Okay,.
N
A
Okay,
well,
I'm,
not
I'm,
not.
D
B
A
Original
movement,
whether
they
would
be
willing
to
at
this
time
so
I
I,
think
I
would
refer
you
to
a
separate
conversation
with
the
city
attorney
to
see
what
would
be
the
appropriate
way
to
move
that
forward.
But
I
think
your
comment
is
duly
noted
and
it
is
now
on
our
meeting
record.
So
anything
else.
Vice
mayor
child.
D
A
No
okay,
thank
you
very
much,
and
so
we
have
the
substitute
motion
that
is
on
the
table
and
so
that
will
be
voted
upon.
First
I,
don't
see
actually
I
do
see
a
hand
raised
council
member
way.
K
Thank
you,
mayor
Paul.
This
is
a
question
for
for
director
Matt
Matt.
So
if
we
change
the
contingency
of
15
to
20,
do
you
foresee
a
nature
issue
with
timing,
because
Blackberry
phone
is
a
major
major
facility
for
our
residents,
especially
in
the
summer,
so
I
would
hate
to
delay
a
project
because
you
have
to
come
back
with
a
extra
two
one,
two
percent
of
money
and
delay
the
project.
Further,
we
do
have
to
open
the
Blackberry
Farm
for
the
summer.
K
It's
one
of
our
treasured
facilities
in
our
city,
our
whole
residence
benefit.
So
this
is
for
director,
Matt
Point.
Does
it
if
20
you
feel
comfortable
I.
Would
trust
staff
judgment
on
this
because
you
did
explain
that
because
of
the
complexity
of
the
project
it
when
you
open
the
classic,
something
could
need
more
repairment
if
it
has
to
tell
the
council
I
can
see
a
month's
delay
or
two
on
this
thing,
and
so
timing
is
very
important
for
our
resident
is.
A
Thank
you,
councilman
away,
I.
Think
your
question
is
fairly
straightforward
and
clear,
so
director
Morley,
what
are
your
thoughts.
AC
On
that,
thank
you
councilmember.
We
do.
We
do
look
seriously
at
the
at
the
contingency
amount
that
we
asked
for
and
and
we're
strategic
about
it.
So
when
we
ask
for
20,
we
think
that
that's
the
right
amount
and
our
recommendation
would
remain
20.
That
said,
if,
if
the
council
is
more
comfortable
with
15
I
think
you've
explained
what
the
potential
risks
are,
but
we'll
do
obviously
our
best
to
make
it
all
happen
and
deliver
the
project.
Hopefully
we'll
have
zero
need
for
the
money
and
it
will
be
all
a
moot
point.
M
Yeah,
so
I'm
definitely
glad
that
this
was
pulled.
It's
given
us
some
real
good
discussion
pertaining
to
the
the
current
sticking
point
on
the
contingency
I
think
the
way
I
would
tend
to
to
look
at
it.
That
kind
of
helps
me
decide
where
to
be
four
maintenance
type
projects.
M
How
much
contingency
is
needed?
Well,
painting,
probably
very
little
Roofing,
probably
not
too
much
either
repaving,
probably
not
too
much
but
re-plastering
a
swimming
pool.
I
would
just
tend
to
be
inclined.
It's
not
something
that
we
do
very
often
you
as
as
our
director
of
Public
Works
head.
You
know,
you
really
don't
know,
what's
underneath
that
plaster
and
if
you
did
pull
it
off
and
find
the
the
mortar
underneath
with
the
rebar
you
know,
kind
of
coming
apart.
M
Well,
we
didn't
didn't,
realize
it
so
at
this
point,
I
I
would
be
inclined
that
in
the
future,
if
Public
Works
was
to
say,
hey,
we
have
a
category
a
b
and
c
for
contingency,
and
this
is
kind
of
a
c,
and
so
that's
why
it
gets
the
the
20
percent.
So
I
think
with
that
being
said,
I
I
think
we
really
should
err
on
the
side
of
making
sure
whatever
happens,
gets
taken
care
of
without
an
anticipated
delay
in
coming
back.
M
I
really
believe
director
Morley
would
be
coming
back
to
us
as
quick
as
possible,
but
still
the
potential
delay
for
the
pool
getting
open
on
time
would
would
be
a
stickler.
So
so
I
tend
to
to
stay
with
the
recommended
action
at
this
time,
but
in
the
future,
knowing
a
b
and
c
would
make
us
easy
make
it
easier
for
us
to
get
over
the
amount
of
contingency.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you,
councilmember
Willie
I
do
see
another
hand
raised
actually
two
one
from
Vice
March
Island
from
councilman
Moore.
So
let
me
Maybe
my
Zoom
functional.
Give
me
a
better
idea
of
the
order
of
this,
so
it
looks
like
vice
versa
and
then
councilmember,
Moore
and
I
apologize.
If
that
wasn't
quite
the
right
order
and
kind
of
listening
to
this,
let
me
make
a
quick
comment.
You
know,
I,
think.
A
The
question
with
regarding
with
regard
to
timing,
is
that
if
there
is
a
need
for
additional
funds
beyond
that
15
contingency
will
you
need
to
wait
until
another
council
meeting
and
then
it
takes
a
while
to
agendaize
it.
So
so
what
kind
of
goes
through
my
mind
is
perhaps
we
could
Empower
a
subcommittee
that
could
move
quickly
and
it
would
need
to
be.
A
You
know
in
my
mind
the
two
people
or
two
of
the
people
that
are
either
continuing
on,
are
presumptively
continuing
on
and
and
that
can
meet
relatively
quickly
to
you
know,
allow
for
the
extra
five
percent
we
we
could
bake
that
into
the
motion.
But
let's
hear
from
our
colleagues
here
vice
mayor
Chow,
followed
by
a
council
member
Moore,
Vice
merchao.
D
D
It
was
for
Blackberry
from
slide
and
Recreation
full
remodel
then,
and
it's
for
3000
foot
resurfacing
and
include
the
slight
pole
also
and
then
Improvement,
the
estimated
to
the
cost
was
242
thousand
dollars.
I
guess
this
one
doesn't
include
the
a
lot
of
this
Ada
Improvement
and
restrooms,
and
those
on
could
I
get
some
more
information
on.
D
P
A
Me,
let
me
see
if
this
can
be
briefly
disposed
of
and
I
should
say
addressed
the
perhaps
not
the
best
choice
of
words.
But
you
know
if
you
have
a
question
based
upon
past
material,
I
I
think
the
time
to
have
asked
it
would
have
been
during
the
questions
or
or
prior
to
the
item.
But
let's
see
if
director
Morley
can
can
speak
to
this.
AC
The
the
estimate
was
in
that
500
000
range,
the
project
was
scoped
and
designed
and
put
out
to
bid
and
the
the
costs
came
in
higher
than
anticipated,
and
so
the
all
bids
were
rejected
at
that
point
by
the
council
and
that's
what
you
see
there
with
that
that
era
of
bid
document
since
then,
we've
gone
back
out,
we've
actually
included
the
Ada
improvements
that
weren't
required
original.
AC
That
weren't
identified
originally
would
have
been
required,
but
weren't
identified
so
there's
additional
scope
in
this
one
and
additional
project
that
costs
of
escalation
due
to
the
amount
of
time
that
it's
taken
to
get
it
back
out.
So
that's
why
the
change
in
costs.
So
that
brings
us
to
where
we
are
today.
A
D
D
Okay
and
I
councilman
Moore.
L
Okay,
so
the
the
bids
came
back
in
around
the
four
hundred
thousand
dollar
range.
If
I
read
that
correctly
out
of
the
report,
so
the
the
Blackberry
Farm
pools
were
originally
put
in
forbid,
I
should
say
put
out
for
bid
in
2019
and
one
bid
was
received
at
469
thousand
dollars
and
on
December
3rd
2019
Council
rejected
the
bid
as
it
exceeded
the
available
budget,
which
was
at
that
time,
two
hundred
thousand
dollars
and
then
Council
authorized
750
thousand
dollars,
and
that
was
to
include
the
Ada
improvements
right.
L
So
I.
You
know,
I
I
really
appreciate
the
mayor's
suggestion
to
to
have
a
subcommittee
and
I
I
really
don't
want
to
get
into
the
the
habit
of
having
a
20
percent
contingency
amount
on
on
this
contract
and
I.
Think
it's
it's
setting
setting
a
precedent.
I,
don't
want
to
see
and
I'm
not
seeing
consistency
among
the
other
cities.
So
when
I,
when
I'm
looking
looking
up
what
contingency
amounts,
other
cities
are
having
I'm
seeing
10
to
15
percent
or
10
percent,
and
we're
asking
for
20,
which
to
me
means
there's.
L
There's
there's
there's
something
wrong
with
the
the
amounts
being
suggested
for
a
particular
project
in
the
beginning
and
that
the
there's
there's
an
issue
there
that
we
should
not
be
seeing
this.
This
large
of
a
unforeseen
condition
potential
and
I
would
assume
that
since
previously,
the
number
was
469
thousand
dollars
to
to
do
that.
L
Work
that
these
are
professionals
who
have
already
worked
in
to
their
bid
that
they
have
some
expectation
and
expertise
to
deal
with
any
issues
that
they
that
they
might
run
into
with
the
pool,
because
it's
really
not
rocket
science,
it's
pool
replastering
and
they
are
professional.
So,
like
I
said,
I
I
don't
agree
with
going
up
to
this
20.
If
you
want
to
set
a
a
subcommittee
to
to
be
more
Nimble
to
to
bring
it
to
council,
I
I
think
that
that
would
be
good.
L
Rebar
and
and
if
I
were
a
contractor,
I
would
be
watching
this
meeting
and
I
I
know.
I
know
what
I
know.
What's
going
on
so
I
would
so
I
I'm
very
reluctant
to
go
to
such
a
high
percentage.
A
Okay,
well
before
I
call
on
councilman
away
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
check
in
as
to
the
ability
to
create
a
friendly
amendment
to
your
substitute
motion
to
that
effect
of
having
a
subcommittee
formed
and
I
would
propose
that
councilmember
way
and
council
member
Moore
be
on
the
subcommittee,
and
this
really
deals
and
I'm
getting
a
look
from
the
city
attorney.
Are
you
concerned
about
where
I'm
going
here
or
well.
N
A
N
A
A
Well,
I
I'm
not
sure
that
that
wouldn't
accommodate
the
the
legal
requirement,
but
I'll
go
ahead
and
accede
to
that
and
withdraw
my
attempt
to
make
this
substitute
motion
council
member.
Well,
you
had
a
hand
raise
first,
so
I'll
go
to
councilman
our
way
before
we
go
to
councilman
wooly
councilman.
K
And
when,
if
something's
plastic,
those
something
else
is
wrong,
it's
not
up
to
the
contractor
to
use
the
20.
It's
up
our
staff
to
evaluate
the
situation,
to
make
project
complete,
so
I,
don't
see,
I,
think
I,
listen,
clear
and
loudly
what
the
record
Molly
said
this.
This
20
is
because
the
pool
project
is
different
from
other
projects.
I
would
want
us,
our
council
members,
to
trust
our
staff
when
they're
not
going
to
give
20
to
the
contractor
for
nothing.
We
have
staff.
That's
going
to
watch
your
project.
K
We
want
to
be
able
to
open
the
Blackberry
phone
for
a
residence
by
the
summer
and
I
really
think
we
need
to
listen
to
the
staffs
and
recommendations.
The
reasoning,
they're
logical,
very
good
reasoning
and
Trust.
What
they
do
is
going
to
be
beneficial
to
our
residents.
They're,
not
going
to
pay
the
contract
just
for
nothing
for
20
and
this
budget
is
a
budget
they're
still
going
to
look
at
bits,
they're
going
to
look
the
lowest
bits.
What
what
would
two
council
members
decide
on?
Five
percent?
K
I
really
think
the
staff's
recommendations
are
reasonable,
rational
and
we
should
trust
your
decision
and
they'll
come
back
and
report
to
us
how
the
money
is
spent.
I,
don't
think
a
contractor
can
say.
Oh
there's
20,
so
I'm
gonna
make
sure
that
I
use
that
20.
We
have
started
there
to
really
Overlook
the
project.
Thank
you.
A
All
right,
thank
you,
councilman
away,
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
move
this
councilmember
Willie,
then
councilmember,
Moore
and
just
you
know,
to
interject
my
position
on
this
I'll
support
the
substitute
motion:
I'm
fine,
with
the
terms
of
it
as
as
stated
but
council
member
Willie.
Let's
go
to
you
and.
M
Then
yeah
just
trying
to
salvage
the
mayor's
thought
that
he
had
and
if
we
were
to
approve
the
20,
but
the
subcommittee
simply
were
to
decide
whether
or
not
it
should
come
back
to
the
city
council
should
it
go
over
the
15
so
that
they're
not
approving
contractual
amounts.
Well.
A
I
I
just
I'm,
sorry
just
to
cut
you
off
there.
The
purpose
of
the
subcommittee
as
far
as
I
formulated
the
or
started
to
formulate
the
friendly
amendment
was
to
save
time,
and
so,
if
you
have
to
stop
by
the
subcommittee
first
to
see
whether
you
should
go
back
to
council,
then
you're
adding
another
step
right
so
that
that
actually
doesn't
save
time.
That
adds
time
so
I
mean.
If
that
helps
with
your
comment.
A
And
I
will
say
it's
not
that
you
know
I
I,
think
I
I
actually
I
very
much
trust
staff
to
make
sure
that
they're
acting
you
know
fiscally
responsible
and
in
good
faith
to
you
know
not
not
try
to
run
it
up
or
you
know,
teach
counsel
and
object
lesson
and
there's
no
need
to
at
least
not
on
my
own
Parts
I'm
out
of
here
in
three
days
right.
A
So
there's
no
there's
there's
no
point
in
doing
that,
but
you
know
in
any
event,
I
mean
I
personally
I'm
compelled
by
what
I've
heard
from
councilmember
Moore
on
the
points
with
regard
to
the
contingencies,
and
you
know,
I
I
think
that
it's
a
it's
a
pretty
healthy
contract
to
begin
with-
and
you
know,
I
think
that
echoing
council
member
waste
points,
I
I
also
very
much
trust
our
staff,
especially
you
know
these
days.
We've
done
a
lot
of
great
things
too.
H
A
And
I
I
just
don't
think
that
we
have
a
situation
where
we
may
end
up
coming
back
in
six
months,
because
perhaps
you
know
there,
there
is
a
sentiment
of
encouragement
to
do
something
like
that:
I
I,
just
I,
think
we
have
real
competent
professionals
here,
and
so
my
hope
is
that
you
know
within
a
reasonable
contingency.
This
project
can
be
done.
Well,
so
councilmember
Moore,
your
next
councilman
will
you
still
have
your
hand
raised
and
zoom
and
signing
more
so
Council
number
one.
L
I
just
want
to
remind
us
that
for
the
Memorial
Park
Pond
repurposing,
when
they
did
their
excavation,
they
found
another
layer
of
concrete
and
I
believe
that
did
come
back
to
us
to
have
an
increase
and
they
were
completed.
All
of
that
work
before
the
the
Veterans
Day
celebration
that
we
had
there
and
they're
moving
the
fences
now.
A
Great
well,
thank
you
for
the
comment
since
we're
not
on
Memorial
Park
ponds.
I
I
have
a
burning
follow-up
to
that
question
or
in
common,
but
I
will
not
ask
it
so
I'll
take
that
offline,
so
I
don't
see
any
further
hands
raised,
but
for
council
member
way
council
member
boy
did
you
want
to
make
a
comment
at
this
time.
K
Just
one
very
brief
comment
for
five
percent
difference:
I,
really,
don't
see
why
we
don't
accept
the
staff's
recommendations,
they're
not
going
to
spend
the
20
for
if
they
could
rate
save
it
to
10
and
I.
The
pound
memory
part
is
different
from
Blackberry
phone
is
one
of
our
summer
treasured
facility.
I
really
do
not
want
to
jeopardize
the
opening
of
primary
funds
for
summer
2023
over
a
five
percent
contingency.
These
are
percentage
that
the
staff
is
not
going
to
waste.
K
It's
just
a
precaution
in
case
they
need
to
make
sure
the
project
goes
through,
that
our
kids
are
enjoy
Library
found
in
2023
in
the
summer,
so
I
would
not
want
to
nitpick
and
make
it
by
15
instead
of
20
I,
listen
loud
and
clearly
that
a
director
Molly's
explanation,
why
is
20
the
the
staff
carefully
calculated
just
in
case?
They
really
want
Blackberry
found
to
open
anytime
in
summer
2023.
