Certain
ordinances
and
resolutions
have
been
passed
at
City
Council
because
of
the
blue
ribbons
one
of
them.
It
was
a
major
one
to
include
working
with
workforce
and
the
different
workgroups
to
place.
People
with
disabilities,
sensitivity,
training
for
city
employees,
and
then
you
were
able
to
bring
back
to
lower
the
cause
of
a
lift
for
persons
with
disabilities
as
well
for
three
major
accomplishments.
B
Along
that
you
know
the
different
city
departments,
the
Airport
Parks,
has
been
coming
to
you
for
guidance
again.
So
thank
you.
Needless
to
say,
our
Health
Department,
and
one
of
the
things
that
we've
been
doing
is
looking
at
new
opportunities
to
improve
services
that
we
have
here
and
with
that
in
mind,
we
work
with
Department
State
Health
Services
and
apply
for
a
grant
to
connect
families
and
children,
particularly
with
special
needs.
Children
with
cystic
fibrosis
to
services,
and
we
just
got
the
grant
a
couple
of
weeks
ago.
Yeah.
B
H
B
It's
gonna
be
the
primary
contact,
one
of
the
things
that
we
want
to
find
out
and
this
committee
has
discussed,
who
are
the
service
providers?
What
services
are
here,
we're
very
limited
and,
and
so
one
of
the
things
they're
gonna
do
when
we
hire
an
additional
staff.
They're
gonna
go
to
San,
Antonio
and
train
with
a
Brightwood
with
the
program
the
Trinity
University
has
that
has
a
special
needs
program
and
curriculum
with
Methodist
hospitals.
B
They
have
a
special
program
as
well,
because
we
want
our
staff
trained,
but
then
to
me
critically
is
what
services
are
here?
Certainly
we're
gonna
partner.
We've
already
has
already
begun
talking
to
the
school
district,
the
Charis
Center
Ruth
P
Cal,
and
what
are
they
need?
And
then
some
of
the
medical
community
I
wanted
to
bring
medical
services
because
we
need
them.
The
grant.
Allow
that,
for
some
reason,
the
medical
services
for
the
Texas
Department
of
how
special
needs
is
in
the
valley.
B
B
Rehab
we're
talking
about
therapy
we're
talking
about
medical
care-
oh
great,
so
we're
gonna
be
finding
out
who's
here
and
then
to
make
the
case
to
the
state
where
we
do
need
medical
care
services
and
then
working
with
the
medical
community,
because
there's
no
need
to
send
someone
with
spectrum
disease
or
any
special
needs
to
San
Antonio.
We
have
the
capacity
here.
B
We've
got
to
find
medical
centers
doctors,
hospital
and
LMC
no
medical
center
and
that
we
have
specialty
as
well,
but
I,
don't
think
we
we
have
the
needed
medical
care,
social
services,
rehabilitation
therapy,
I
think
around
this
table
or
some
of
the
providers
themselves
and
the
school
play
a
big
role.
So
all
that
will
be
bringing
everyone
together
and
finding
out
what
we
have.
What
else
do
we
need
and
then
train
because
we're
starting
to
get
questions
at
the
health
department?
I
have
a
child
with
this,
where,
where.
C
Can
I
go?
You
might
want
to
touch
space
with
Mercy
Ships
talk
to
Patsy,
send
Megan.
They
have
a
program
going
or
initiative
going
right
now,
where
they
not
only
provide
therapy,
but
they
actually
have
to
there
I'm,
not
sure
if
it's
a
grant
or
something
that
was
provided
to
him,
some
funding
that
was
provided
and
what
they
need
to
do
is
they
need
to
collaborate
with
doctors
so,
once
a
month,
I
think
they'd
meet
and
they
discuss
cases.
So
that
would
be
a
yeah.
C
B
Tamio
has
a
under
there
kinesiology
program
in
the
nursing
school
of
growth
and
development
programs,
where
they're
developing
these
specialists
to
go
out
during
pregnancy.
To
let
mom
know
we
have
this
program
here
and
when
baby's
born.
Let
us
do
a
checkup
to
start
detecting
early
growth
and
developmental
visual
hearing
issues,
but
then,
where
do
I
refer
them.
B
We
wanted
to
introduce
Oda
to
the
Blue
Ribbon
committee
and
make
her
kind
of
a
continuum,
because
I
think
you
all
are
wealth
of
resources
and
information.
So
she's
gonna
get
to
know
you
all
as
well
and
then
let
you
know
what
she's
doing
and
what
she
finds,
but
she's,
also
gonna,
be
going
to
sound
Toni
to
train
with
Trinity
and
Methodists,
who
have
very
good
method
is
a
particularly
Cystic
Fibrosis.
We
don't
have
anything
here
for
cystic
fibrosis.
B
B
D
A
D
A
I
H
F
H
F
Know
this
what
you
brought
up
about
cancer
to
me?
It's
it's!
The
plague
of
our
time
and
I
really
think
that
societal,
the
societal
attention
is
not
being
paid.
I,
don't
know
of
a
single
family
who
has
not
had
someone
in
their
family
suffered
cancer,
and
yet
we
all
go
about
our
business
and
don't
really
pay
heed
and
we
pay
attention
to
the
issue
whose
something
needs
to
be
done.
It's
just
like
I,
say
the
plague
of
our
time.
A
D
B
Have
is
it
the
second
year
of
the
residency
program?
We
have
seven
interns
residents,
internal
medicine
at
LMC
and
seven
at
Gateway
and
in
in
year,
two,
the
rotating
through
the
health
department,
to
try
to
create
more
more,
in
this
case
family
practitioners
and
internist
to
to
treat
heart
problems.
Cancer.
Any.
B
Here
in
to
stay
here,
and
so
that
that's
only
part
of
the
puzzle,
there's
more
as
we
locate
other
partnerships
and
we're
certainly
working
with
Incarnate
Word
University,
because
we're
a
told
them.
We
may
need
other
things
with
tamio
in
the
nursing
school
partnering,
with
UT
health
and
Antonio
the
nurses
or
becoming
nurse
practitioners
to
see
patients.
But
we
created
with
a
grant
from
Methodist
a
special
curriculum
for
psychiatry.
B
F
H
G
F
D
B
D
B
F
Your
idea
of
finding
out
what
we
have
and
what
we
don't
have
reminds
me
of
something
that
Professor
Emeritus,
that
am
artist
and
that's
a
problem
well
defined
is
hack
solved.
Okay,
that's
what
you're
doing
you're
finding.
If
we
have
resources,
we
don't
have
so
that
you
can
have
a
plan
of
action.
That
sounds
great.
F
B
D
B
Adolescent
special
needs
and
then
the
aging
and
you
all
have
touched
in
it
as
we
you
don't
you
don't
have
to
be
a
special
need
person
to
require
assistance.
As
we
age
we
may
need
assistance
or
parking.
Another
thing
is
tackled,
the
local
ordinance
and
undesignated
parking,
and
so
we
need
to
address
those
here,
but
again,
part
of
I
think
it's
very
important
to
know
what
do
we
have
and
what
are
we
missing.
A
Exciting
as
discussion
possible
action
on
the
membership,
y'all
remember
that
we
spoke
last
time
about
how
we
wanted
to
do
that
and
so
based
on
the
roster
that
I
know.
There's
ten
members,
okay,
but
I.
Think
that
and
I
don't
remember
the
discussion.
But
dr.
Levin
gia
is
telling
me
that
at
one
point
earlier
we
had
a
discussion
with
dr.
on
Saturdays.
F
A
So
I
had
spoken
to
him.
Do
they
have
I
think
about
maybe
like
a
week
ago,
and
she
was
telling
me
that
the
actual
bylaws
they
are
I
guess
registered
or
within
the
city?
Okay,
actually
has
been
for
12
that
she
says:
12
I,
don't
know
you
agree
with
that
or
not
I,
don't
know
where
she
got
that
property.
But
mr.
B
Church
yeah,
that's
the
standard
for
the
Commission's,
the
advisory
rules,
technical
groups,
the
building
has
a
technical
and
they
have
30.
The
ethics
has
30.
So
it
varies.
There's
nothing
in
writing,
though,
for
blue-ribbon
committees,
because
there's
only
been
two
in
the
last
25
years.
I
have
one
that
just
stopped
and
there
was
general
health
and
this
one-
and
you
all
have
been
working
for
almost
10
years
now-
has.
B
B
And
this
is
the
only
existing
Blue
Ribbon
committee
and
so
that
one
doesn't
fit
because
the
ordinance
didn't
say
blue
ribbon.
It
says
the
the
Commission's,
the
boards,
the
advisory
groups.
If
you
have
like
the
airport
advisor,
you
have
the
parks
advisory,
you
have
the
Women's
Commission.
So
all
of
those
are
statutory.
The
bill
ribbons
at
the
will
of
the.
B
In
this
case,
the
mayor
formed-
and
so
he
has
said
you
he
is
very
supportive-
was
not
as
good
was
gonna,
try
to
make
it
as
well
today,
but
he
is
very
happy
with
with
what
you've
done
and
has
said
it's
up
to
whatever
the
committee
wants
to
do
in
developing
its
own
organizational
structure
and
members
that
you
want
to
have
or
not
in
rotations,
he's
left
it
up
to
you
and
so
for
the
Blue
Ribbon.
There
is
no
sense.
No
such
statue
that
you
have
to
have
look
so
many
memories,
so.
A
F
A
A
A
work
and
probably
talked
about
and
I'll
give
you
so
you
all
just
have
an
idea.
They
talk
about
active
members,
sustaining
members,
honorariums,
okay
and
then
substitute
members,
okay,
and
some
of
them
make
sense
that
some
of
our
make
no
sense
to
me.
Okay,
so
and
then
some
of
them
are
not
even
defined
so
I'm,
creating
my
own
definition,
yeah.
D
A
F
A
A
So
I
guess
the
the
biggest
question
for
this
group
right
now
is
last
discussion
was:
do
we
just
want
to
add
one
more
member
so
that
we
can
add
the
organization
that
we
think
should
be
here
or
do
we
or
should,
or
should
some
people
be
rotated
out
from
made
honorary
members?
Okay,
you
can
still
show
up,
but
you
wouldn't
have
voting
capacity
or
whitening.
A
H
C
A
A
A
B
E
B
Machado
has
has
a
point:
the
Ethics
Commission
for
the
city
of
Vallejo
has
almost
30
and
so
yeah
major
issue
for
them
is
quorum.
The
Ethics
Commission
really
provides
oversight
to
our
legal
and
other
department,
so
they
must
mean
they've
had
a
problem.
So
that's
a
point
well
taken
the
bigger
you
are
because
markup
it
the
more
challenging
to
manage
the
quorum
I
have
to
congratulate
you
that
you
all
this
committee
has,
for
the
most
part,
met.
E
D
B
B
Our
drug
and
alcohol
commission
that
I
also
serve
as
the
liaison
for
the
city
has
had
some
challenges
with
quorum
as
well,
but
one
of
the
good
things
they've
done
that
we've
mentioned
here
is
is
and
I
think
you
kind
of
addressed
it
in
your
drive.
Bylaws
is
is
having
stakeholders
having
persons,
also
assists
without
vote,
but
that
can
provide
additional
support
and
special
needs
issues.
B
The
drug
and
alcohol,
for
example,
data
gap,
analysis
to
right
away
to
update
a
directory
and
one
of
the
things
they
do
in
all
their
me
saying
by
every
service
provider
for
drug
and
alcohol,
everyone
is
invited,
they
can't
vote
but
they're
there
and
they
participate,
and
they
give
advice
and
a
good
exchange.
That
committee
has
become
very
active
as
well,
and
that
one
also
just
like
you
has
per
has
that
one
is
is:
is
the
Commission?
B
So
each
council
member
has
a
representative
and
seeing
they
rotate
and
we've
had
two
rotations
because
the
council
members
no
longer
there,
the
new
one
came
in
and
he
appoints
so
there
there's
a
at
four
to
eight
years.
There's
a
constant
rotation,
because
the
new
member
chooses
then
that
Commission
joined
with
the
county.
It
became
a
city
county,
drug
and
alcohol
commission.
So
the
counting
each
commissioner
and
the
judge
named
one
two.
F
B
Grew,
it
grew
and
so
it
going
back
to
you.
The
mayor
is
the
one
who
appoints
you
and
you've
had
two
mayor's
who
said
I
I,
like
the
committee
I,
want
to
keep
the
committee
and
I
like
the
members.
That's
why
you
have
over
ten
years,
some
of
you,
the
chair,
has
been
here
with
them
from
the
very
beginning,
I.
D
F
A
A
E
A
A
G
G
A
F
A
F
A
You
know
and
that
this
wasn't
a
point.
This
is
an
appointed
position
from
the
mayor,
and
so
we
couldn't
like
swap
people.
Okay,
Mirian
not
approved
the
swamp.
He
had
to
prove
you
could
beat
you
alright.
So
now,
I
look
at
the
bylaws
and
there's
a
substitute
membership.
So
I
don't
were
this
King,
so
I
think
that
all
these
are
fine.
The
phone
thing
calling
in
by
phone
is
fine
and
the
substitute
thing
is
fine,
and
it
says
here
that
if
you
send
a
substitute
that
you've
counted
as
being
present
now.
F
Let
me
ask
you
something:
if
there
is
a
substitute
member
coming
in
for
someone
because,
like
you,
ladies,
are
very
busy
so,
but
if
they
come
in
to
take
notes
and
report
back
to
you,
because
you
can't
be
on
the
phone
because
you're
at
a
meeting
or
a
conference
or
whatever,
with
that
person
vote
no
right.
No.
G
B
D
B
They
have
to
coincide
with
the
ethics
rules
of
the
city
and
the
attendance
of
the
city
for
commissions
and
boards
once
they
approve
them,
then
then,
and
I'm-
that's
gonna
be
one
thing
because
in
the
others,
and
some
of
them
have
different
bylaws,
the
women's
Commission,
just
just
that
one
was
created
by
ordinance
with
specific
procedures
and
bylaws.
But
it
didn't
address
absence
that.
Let
me
tell
you
it
was.
D
B
Once
you
approve
the
bylaws,
then
then
I
have
to
submit
them
to
legal
and
they'll
check
that
they
there
isn't
anything
in
contradiction
with
the
ethics
for
sure
or
any
of
the
other
statutory
issues.
There
is
no
ordinance
to
create
you
sue
you're
kind
of
in
the
middle
between,
but
but
you
do
have
to
come.
You
don't
have
to
abide
by
these,
but.
H
B
A
A
The
numbers-
and
they
just
didn't
and
I,
was
like
okay.
So
what
does
that
mean
that
you
just
show
up
four
times
a
year?
You
see
you
can
be
absent
three
and
the
rest
of
the
time
you
can
call
in
or
send
somebody
in
or
that
do
we
have
limits
to
that
listen.
Can
we
create
limits,
and
it's
it
fair,
okay,
and
for
some
of
us
that
that
are
very
disciplined
about
coming
and
showing
off?
Is
it
fair
to?
Is
it?
B
B
B
B
F
Justification
would
be
disabilities,
we
deal
with
people
with
disabilities
and
there
is
such
a
thing
as
section
504
and
making
accommodations
and
adapt.
So
you
know
if
we
don't
have
a
disability
here,
we're
working
with
people
with
disabilities,
and
so
that
would
perhaps
justify
wiggle
room.
Another
thing
that
I
mentioned
Danielle
just
in
talking
I,
don't
remember
what
it
was
that
one
of
the
things
we
could
do
with
the
what
we
have
now,
which
is
basically
some
it's.
F
A
A
A
But
some
of
the
stuff
is
I
was
just
telling
you
that
that
there
seems
to
be
contradictions
or
difficulties
in
how
we're
going
to
meet
certain
things
when
there
are
other
options
that
create
challenges
for
okay,
and
so
does
that
do
we
have
different?
Does
that
mean
that
we
can
come
four
times
only
we
have
to
be
absences
and
the
rest
of
the
time.
Just
you
know
we're
calling
it.
Mr.
B
And
the
phone
that
was
one
of
the
revisions
and
but
counsel
did
not
say
you
can
or
can't
attend
your
12
meetings
by
phone.
They
just
said
you
can
you
can
and-
and
he
legal
took
this
up
to
the
to
the
Secretary
of
State,
for
clarification
and
said
yes,
any
formal
body
that
has
to
abide
by
the
open
meetings
and
must
have
a
meeting
that
you
announced
to
the
public.
You
must
have
at
least
one
person
physically.
B
C
A
A
A
Anyway,
committees
for
the
moment
right
now,
what
we
need
to
agree
on
is:
are
we
okay
with
increasing
the
membership
to
11
and
or
deny
somebody
want
to
be
dying
to
leave.
A
And
last
time
at
that
doctor
came
up
as
a
discussion.
There
was
some
some
remember
voice,
their
concerns
of
wow
them
being
considered
as
being
the
ones
to
be
house
tipped
and,
and
so
obviously
that
was
not
a
satisfactory
response.
Okay
and
so
it
were
allowed
to,
and
we
can,
we
can
just
increase
it
by
one.
You
know
the
warm
I
know
is
the
challenge,
but
in
lieu
of
the
fact
that
you
all
can
call
him
five
times
a
year.
F
D
A
The
name
we
need
to
as
the
chairing
that
another
active
member
have
to
sign
off
and
send
it
to
the
mayor
and
the
mayor
ultimately
approves
okay,
which
I
don't
think
the
mayor
would
have
any
convenience
or
objection
to
it,
but
I
guess
from
the
crew,
I
guess
the
prior
to
the
the
permission
to
Colleen.
We
have
fun.
It
was
more
challenging
to
me.
Yes,.
F
F
A
I
I
was
just
thinking,
I
know
the
last
meeting
we
talked
about
the
one
of
the
concerns
about
the
current
membership
group
was
the
fact
that
the
voting
was
kind
of
swayed
to
VR
I,
understand
that
the
mayor
appointed
everybody
and
he's
happy
with
his
here.
No
that's
great,
but
what
happened
we
talked
the
last
time
is
there
were
agency
changes
and
so
basically,
for
example,
mrs.
I
Sanchez
was
elected
to
come
to
represent
workforce,
which
is
no
longer
the
case,
because
she's
with
VR
Martha
son
Meegan,
originally
came
representing
flying
services,
which
was
not
a
part
of
VR,
but
now
is
so
and
we
have
a
contractor
for
manana
and
so
I
think
part
of
the
concern
was
if
we
took
a
vote
that
there's
a
swing
to
the
side
of
VR
that
was
looked
at
is
possibly
not
completely
fair.
If
you're
wanting
different
agencies
to
have
commitment
and
so
I
don't
know
if
that
additional
member
is
going
to
trust.
C
E
I
A
month,
yeah
I
think
an
hour
a
month,
probably
dozen
I
mean
I,
don't
want
to
speak
for
you,
I
know
the
counselors
are
very
busy,
but
I
guess
that's
gonna
be
determined
by
what
decisions
are
made
in
terms
of
attendance
and
how
you
have
to
show
and
how
many
times
you
have
to
show.
But
even
if
let's
say
you
had
to
meet
in
person
twelve
times
a
year,
I
mean
I
I,
don't
want
to
speak
for
you,
but
I.
Don't
know
that.
That's
a
hardship.
J
One
ship-
it's
not
like
busy,
yes
with
busy
and
basically
again
I
I
work
for
my
customers
for
mine
and
I,
want
to
say,
I've
been
doing
this
for
seven
years
now.
So
that's
a
subject
matter
expert
for
the
blind
or
visually
impaired.
That's
like
I
feel
this
is
my
duty
to
serve.
You
know
the
community,
because
then
you
know
when
they
go
to
the
office.
It's
Oh,
miss
I
mean
we
do
have
another
another
tenured
counselor,
but
she
does
have
other
duties
as
well,
so
actively
working
cases.
J
Meeting
with
customers
I
would
be
mean
so
I'm
more
or
less
than
one
that's
up
to
date
on
policies,
and
you
know
things
that
are
happening
in
the
community.
So
for
me,
I
enjoy
coming
to
you
know,
providing
my
feedback
and
where
I
see
that
there's
a
need,
because
each
year
we
there's
something
new
going
on.
D
J
We're
trying
I
know
example:
surely
I'll
have
you
know
really
helped
in
that
sense.
Now
him
working
and
he's
also
able,
as
a
community
member
now
through
workforce,
you
know
he's
able
to
provide
feedback
and
his
input.
So
for
me
it's
not
a
hardship.
Yes,
we've
had
those
days
that
it
just
so
happens
about
Wednesday,
it's
kind
of
all
over
the
place,
but
I
really
like
being
a
part
of
that.
A
G
You
know,
because
I
bring
different
experience.
You
know
from
VR,
even
though
I
am
now
see
all
right.
Getting
my
heel
stuck
in
here
I
think
the
skill
sets
that
that
I
bring
in
my
experience
can
contribute
to
the
organization
and,
more
so,
to
our
community.
So
it's
I
take
that
spin
on
it.
If
you
will
yeah.
A
I,
don't
think
that,
although
you
work
for
a
different
entity
organization,
I,
don't
think
that
you've
relinquished
all
your
knowledge
about
what
you
need
be
pouring,
what
you
brought
in
okay,
what
you
contribute
it
and
what
you
can
still
contribute
and
somebody's
still,
regardless
of
whether
you
left
him
prior
organization
or
not.
You
still
have
contacts
within
that
entity
that
and
you
could,
if
maybe
you'd
reach
out
to
them.
A
I'm
straight
now
still
works
where
you
know,
look
for
the
Workforce
Solutions
organization,
so
I
was
only
used
to
work
for
it,
okay,
but
we
still
have
per
se.
We
still
have
our
foot
in
the
door
and
we
have
to
and
so
I
don't
think
that
that
would
be
an
issue.
It's
it
creates
a
hardship
for
you.
They
don't
I,
don't
have
a
problem
regarding
the
boating
and
that
you
guys
are
so
powerful,
you're
gonna
sway.
Some.
A
Difficult
or
challenging
or
so
being
pooling,
so
I,
don't
think
that
we
have
I
think
the
mission
of
the
organization.
The
mission
of
the
committee
is
to
improve
services
period.
I
think
they
were
all
in
the
same
direction:
okay,
if
there
was
a
subgroup
of
you
that
were
always
being
the
black
sheep
of
a
group,
okay,
I
who
would've
figured
it
out
right
now.
C
Think
if
we
look
at
what
we
have
and
the
knowledge
that
each
person
brings
to
the
committee
based
on
you
know,
you
know
whether
it's
book
knowledge
or
whether
it's
what
is
it
practical
knowledge
by
having
worked
at
Texas,
workforce
and
understanding
that
or
through
the
process
of
the
VR
program
or
the
process
of
knocking
on
doors
like
I,
do
as
a
parent
and
then
you
look
at
every
single
member
year,
I
think
it's
a
great
crisis,
stronger
foundation
for
moving
forward
with
the
decisions
we
make.
If
anything
else,
it
makes
us
strong.
C
B
D
B
D
G
A
So
it
seems
like
we've,
come
to
some
pretty
very
basic
agreements
which
I
didn't
think
we
thought
was
gonna
have
an
outlier
because
I
know
the
way
most
of
you
think
in
the
way
or
the
direction
you
we
want
to
go,
and
so
what
we
did
at
for
the
moment
I,
you
know
I,
guess
any
tip
I
need
someone
to
motion
that
we
want
increased
the
membership
to
11
in
dr.
Ruth
inter
and
then
I
need
someone
to
second
me
and
so
I.
That's
in
favor.
A
B
D
F
F
C
C
Mr.
monado's
is
going
to
be
the
next
mayor.
No
that's
what
my
heart
is
going
for.
That's
I
keep
calling
mr.
mayor,
but
mr.
Ronaldo's
has
been
on
my
list
for
about
two
and
a
half
years
and
if
I've
ever
felt
like
I,
wasn't
accomplishing
anything
it's
with
him,
because
I've
knocked
on
every
door
and
the
reception
has
always
been,
will
call
you
and
it
hasn't
worked
I
at
one
point,
I
called
mr.
C
once
Atlas
doctor
on
Silas
and
I
said
doctor
on
Silas
I
said
this
is
what
I
have
and
he
said
yes
and
of
course
he
wanted
to
bring
him
in
to
the
Health,
Department
and
I
thought
it
was
a
good
idea
and
then
I
reminded
myself
that
Raoul
deserved
the
best
and
that
not
that
the
health
department
was
in
the
bed
because
he
has
a
degree
a
bachelor's
degree
in
and
what
is
it?
Ana
County
with
the
certificate
in
oil
and
gas
and
he's
an
amazing.
C
Basically,
because
you
have
the
city
of
Lodi,
though
you
have
Texas
workforce
and
you
have
the
VR
program
coming
together
and
I
always
tell
people
on
one
accommodation,
because
we
all
we
do
is
we
provide
a
service
and
what
are
the
hands
and
feet
there?
We're
important.
But
that's
what
we're
technically
are
and
I
see
myself.
Is
that
so
we
do
have
a
job
skills
trainer
that
will
be
working
with
the.
C
The
idea
is
that
that
job
skills
trainer
will
assist
both
the
employer
and
Mister
Ronaldo's
to
identify
the
areas
in
which
he
will
need
services,
whether
it
be
meaning
that
he's
going
to
be
working
on
the
computer,
whether
he
needs
a
special
board
which
the
ATP
chamber.
So
it's
become
a
partnership
and
a
good
one,
because
it's
going
to
open
up
doors,
the
more
we
provide
supports
the
easier
will
become
I.
Think
it's
one
of
many
to
come.
I
think
Joel
is
elated,
you
know,
and
it's
a
six-month
work.
It's
a
six-month
work.
C
It
was
supposed
to
be
a
three-month
through
Texas
Workforce.
He
is,
he
will
be
getting
above
minimum
wage
and
salary
and
so
which
is
really
good
and
it
started
in
December
and
he'll,
be
they
cut
his
work
day
into
half
so
it'll
extend
to
six
months
and
doesn't
mean
they're,
we're
gonna
be
there
for
six
months.
It
means
that
we're
going
to
Train
equipped
and
empower
both
the
employee
right
now
through
TWC
and
the
employer
to
become
better
at
what
they
do
and
I
think
it's
a
great
initiative.
C
I
think
I'm
super
excited
at
one
point.
I
dr.
once
that
it's
good
day
I
was
going
like
this
is
not
so
fair,
but
you
know
what
no
great
battle
nothing
has
been
achieved
without
a
great
struggle
and
the
greater
the
struggle.
The
more
successful
we
are
so
I
want
to
thank
this
committee
for
those
of
you
that
have
been
in
the
journey
too.
We're
not
giving
up
I
do
not
really
don't.
D
C
E
G
I
G
But
say
they
finished,
so
my
question
is
say
they
finished.
You
know
six
months,
three
months
whatever
that
may
be
and
when
they're
done
with
that
say
well,
no,
you
know
you
need
more
experience
there
a
little
more
experience.
There
then.
Could
this
other
program
come
in
to
assist
that
individual?
Yes,.
C
Yes,
it
may
it
is
good
and
I
when
we
were
there
on
Monday.
One
of
the
questions
was
because
they
were
gonna
bring
in
a
desk
in
the
whole
thing,
and
the
question
said
well
when
he
he
leaves
I
said,
but
he's
not
gonna
need
that's
right,
I'm,
a
woman
of
faith
and
I
believe
without
a
doubt
that
he
is
not
there
by
accident.
Okay,
it
takes
someone
I
at
one
point:
I
asked
him
I
said
I'll:
do
you
want
to
quit
this?
He
says?
No,
do
you
wanna
quit
I
said
no.
C
B
Mr.
chairman
and
members
of
committee,
I
can
tell
you
that
the
city
is
is
excited
our
human
resources
who
handles
decided
to
lead
this
effort.
Is
we
have
a
new
HR
director?
The
some
of
you
have
bet
and
and
she's
excited
the
finance
department.
Were
this
man,
this
professional
is
gonna.
Work
is
excited
and.
G
B
This
is
this
is
this
is
also
on
the
city
side
Neil.
But
the
commitment
is
there
from
the
mayor,
the
city
managers
that
some
of
you,
mr.
chair,
met
with
the
city
managers
and
Human
Resources,
and
the
employee
wellness
they're,
all
supportive
and
naturally,
at
the
department
level
we
were
as
well
and
some
of
the
other
departments
as
well.
The
building
department
was
very
supportive.
The
Parks
Department
is
very
supportive,
but
a
lot
has
to
do
with
you
all
doing
sensitivity,
training,
because
they're
still
I
can
tell
you
from
the
city
employees
there
was
there.
B
C
Open
up
doors
for
other
for
another
and
equip
them
to
I
guess
get
over
the
the
idea
of
fear.
People
fear
what
they
see
the
wheelchair.
They
don't
see
the
person
and
I
think
it's
not
because
they
want
to,
but
because
it's
it's
a
trained
thought
you
know
we're
thinking,
we're
missing
something
like
you
see
the
guy
class
full
or
half
full,
you
know,
and
so
we
we
believe
that
because
of
the
persistency
of
everyone,
that's
been
involved
and
the
the
knowledge
that
people
will
gain.
A
C
A
C
D
C
Had
we
had
a
fabulous
time,
the
photo
booth?
You
know
everything
we
miss
out
on
the
limousine
last
year,
but
we're
getting
everything
this
year
again
and
so
I
encourage
you
to
be
part
of
this
endeavor.
It's
a
great
opportunity
to
to
bring
community
members
I'm
inviting
employers
discount
Tires
already
signed
on.
We
have
some
other
employers
that
are,
we
want
to
bring
them
in
and
say
you
know
what
we
have
a
community
individuals
that
are
dying
to
give
back.
All
you
need
to
do
is
get
back
to.
B
Absolutely
mr.
chairman,
before
you
close,
wanted
to
tell
you
and
all
the
members
on
behalf
of
the
mayor
and
the
City
Council
as
we
end
the
year.
Thank
you
for
your
service.
This
is
in
the
volunteer.
I
can
tell
the
mayor
is
very
happy
with
this
committee
and
so
wanted
to
for
me
to
express
in
his
behalf.
He
didn't
make
it
and
he
has
made
it
to
wish
you
all.
First
thank
you,
but
to
wish
you
and
your
families
a
very
safe
and
happy
holidays.
Thank
you.
