The
Honorable,
Margie
Ibarra
is
going
to
be
there
right
and
one
of
the
reasons
for
her

We

some
of
the
more
tougher
questions.
However,
they're
not
going

any
veteran

wants
to
have
a
business.
There
are
grants
out
there
available
for
those
veterans
to
help
them
and
if
they
don't
know,
I
believe
for
five
years.
When
you
start
business,
you
don't
pay
taxes
so
to
the
state,
there's
something
going.
He
did
tell
me
something
about
it.
It's
for
those
places.
F
Instead
of
going
to
the
to
taxes
to
the

it
goes
back

so
they
can
only
be
aware
of
and
of
course,
where
the,
where
the
monies
are
going,
the
monies
are
going

Next
item
on
the
agenda,
we
have
discussion
with
possible
action
regarding
the
presentation
of
veterans,
resource
events
and
family
events
in
any
matter
of
incident.
There
too
I
think
we
just
heard
it
all
right.
Yes,
sir,
okay,
so
next
item
on
the
agenda,
we
have
discussion
and
possible
action
regarding
the
presentation
of
Veterans
Day
events
and
any
matters
isn't
it
there
too.
You
also
address
that
Mr
President.
G
E
B
H
Good
morning,
Salinas
for
the
record,
I
have
a
question
about
the
parade.
I,
don't
know.
If
anyone
here
knows
about
it,
it's
a
Veterans,
Day
Parade
I
just
wanted
to
know
why
we
haven't
expanded
a
little
bit
where
it's
such
a
it's
such
a
short
route.
I
know
it's
tradition,
that
it
starts
and
ends
in
the
same
spot,
but
we
could
add
a
little
bit
to
it
so
to
make
it
a
little
bit
bigger.
A
B
B
H
B
C
H
C
G
G
I
can
send
it
to
you
and
it's
coming
from
blue
actor,
public
officer,
I,
guess
or
Pio
I,
don't
know
if
I'm,
not
100
sure
but
I
know
it
was
a
kind
of
like
a
mass
text.
Message
like
he
needed
forward
it
to
you
or
send
it
to
you.
Or
could
you
I'll
ask
the
person
if
I
can
give
you
their
info
that
we
I
would
want
to
give
you
the
correct
answer,
but
we're.
B
Not
they're
the
ones
we
don't
have
a
the
correct
answer,
but
all
all
that
would
say
that
it's
it's,
it
was
done
with
the
intent
to
be
able
to
do
it
at
that
certain
date,
certain
time
and
and
that's
that's
crucial,
but
certainly
discussing
it
for
for
next
year,
is
very
appropriate.
So
that's
not
a
problem.
H
I,
don't
know
I'm
not
very
well
versed
in
the
route
or
the
streets.
I
would
have
this
yet,
but
I'm
sure
that
we
can
figure
out
how
to
add,
not
change
the
start
and
ending
point,
but
adding
along
the
way
a
little
bit
more
so
that
it's
not
it
doesn't
go
by
so
fast
and
then
figuring
out
a
way
of
accommodating
so
that
those
that
you
know
cannot
walk.
Such
a
long
route
would
be
able
to
travel
either
way
because.
C
B
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
any
other
comments
and,
let's
settlement
agenda,
we
have
discussion
with
possible
action
to
cancel
the
December
meeting
any
matters
incident
there
too.
In
the
past,
this
committee
has
has
canceled
the
December
meeting,
for
obvious
reasons
of
always
as
the
the
committee
to
to
vote
on
it
and
see
if
he
wanted
to
do
that
this
year.
That's
what
designer
is
here.
We
have
a
lot
of
events
going
on
in
this
month
and
then
next
month
going
on,
and
so
we
have
been
canceling
this
meeting
into
for
the
month
of
December.
D
B
We
have
a
motion
and
a
second
to
cancel
the
December
meeting
discussion
for
for
purpose
of
discussion.
I
mean
this
this
committee
and
just
as
a
wrap
up
a
little
bit
and-
and
we
all
are
well
aware
of
what
we
have
accomplished
in
the
in
the
last
year
or
so.
You
just
write
a
a
lot
of
the
things
that
are
happening
now
that
were
not
happening
before
they're
going
to
happen
this
month.
