A
Next
on
the
agenda
is
oral
communications.
This
portion
of
the
meeting
is
reserved
for
persons
wishing
to
address
the
council
on
any
matter
not
on
the
agenda.
Speakers
are
allowed
to
speak
on
any
topic
for
up
to
three
minutes
during
this
section,
and
state
law
prohibits
the
council
from
acting
on
non-agenda
items.
C
Evening,
everybody
in
attendance,
all
jeager
with
the
police
department,
several
Mountain
View,
City
departments,
Public
Works,
Fire
and
Police-
are
interested
in
using
unmanned
aircraft
systems
or
drones
drone
technology
to
enhance
our
operations
to
work
safer
and
provide
better
and
more
efficient
service
with
within
each
area.
Respective
areas,
responsibilities.
C
Each
department
has
developed,
or
is
in
the
process
of
developing
department,
specific
policies
and
procedures
to
be
followed
in
conjunction
with
an
overarching,
City
Council
policy
that
we're
going
to
be
talking
about
tonight.
In
a
little
more
detail
on
April
9th
of
this
year,
the
City
Council
held
a
study
session
to
discuss
the
use
of
unmanned
aircraft
systems.
At
this
session,
the
council
directed
staff
to
develop
an
overarching
city
council
policy
governing
the
responsible
use
of
UAS
by
city
departments.
Additionally,
the
council
directed
staff
to
conduct
community
informational
campaigns
through
in-person
and
online
opportunities.
C
The
protection
of
individual
civil
rights
and
the
reasonable
expectation
of
privacy
remained
key
components
of
any
decision
to
deploy
a
UAS,
and
this
policy
is
aligned
with
the
ACLU
recommended
guidelines
on
government
use
of
drone
technology,
which
prohibits
the
following.
I'm
going
to
read
this
from
the
script
directly
conducting
any
business
other
than
official
city
business,
conducting
random
or
proactive
surveillance
activities,
targeting
a
person
based
solely
on
individual
characteristics
and
placing
any
weapons
on
the
UAS
system.
Those
are
all
prohibited.
C
Additionally,
the
policy
addresses
concerns
regarding
data
collection
and
retention.
Specifically
all
the
data
that's
retained,
as
public
record
will
be
collected
and
stored
in
compliance
with
an
approved
digital
evidence,
management
system
data
will
be
maintained
in
accordance
with
the
city's
records
retention
schedule
or
as
required
for
criminal
or
civil
proceedings.
Any
unauthorized
use,
duplication,
publication
or
distribution
of
UAS
videos
and
images
is
prohibited
and
release
of
any
recordings
shall
be
made
in
compliance
with
any
relevant
Public
Records
Act
laws.
Additionally,
requests
for
deletion
of
accidental
recordings
shall
be
completed
in
accordance
with
current
department
policy.
C
We
received
minimal
feedback
questions
and/or
concerns
throughout
all
of
our
outreach
efforts,
some
behind
on
the
slides,
I'm.
Sorry,
so
you
a
us
enclosing.
Uas
technology
has
quickly
become
an
invaluable
tool
for
municipal
governments
throughout
the
country,
as
well
as
many
of
our
neighboring
cities.
C
This
proposed
City
Council
policy
ensures
that
UAS
technology,
that's
utilized
by
the
city,
is
deployed
responsibly,
holding
the
privacy
and
civil
rights
of
our
community
at
the
forefront.
So,
based
on
that,
we
recommend
that
the
council
adopt
the
city.
Council
policy
is
written
on
the
use
of
unmanned
aircraft
systems.
Thank
you.
Thank.
D
Staff
answered
most
of
my
questions,
but
there
I
have
a
couple
of
follow-up
questions
based
on
those
answers.
So
I
asked
the
number
of
drones.
If
there
were
any,
if
departments
had
any
estimates
for
how
many
they
wanted
to
purchase
over
the
next
year
or
two
and
the
answer
was
the
police
were
planning
to
and
fire
one
and
I
was
just
wondering
whether
we
had
a
short
turnaround
time
this
time
for
council
questions,
whether
there
were
any
other
departments
looking
in
to
purchase
such
as
Public
Works,
for
example,
or
any
other
departments.
E
Mike
well,
our
public
works
director.
We're
kind
of
following
police's
lead
on
this
I
think
at
first
we
may
borrow
their
pilots
and
drones
just
to
kind
of
get
a
sense
of
how
we're
gonna,
deploy
them.
I
know
we're
gonna,
do
roof
inspections
and
gutter
inspections
and
things
you
can
imagine
this
building,
it's
pretty
challenging,
get
up
there
and
look
and
then,
within
a
fairly
short
period
of
time.
We
will
likely
be
requesting
the
purchase
of
one.
D
F
Address
that
question
the
Public
Records
Act
for
privacy
interest
does
not
spell
out
exact
components
such
as
facial
images.
It
just
provides
the
public
agency
with
a
balancing
test
where
the
public
agency
has
to
balance
the
privacy
interest
versus
the
interest
in
disclosure.
So
something
like
personal
identity
would
be
very
similar
to
say
a
social
security
number
or
personal
phone
number,
where
we
would
where
the
redaction
in
this
case
would
be
to
blur
the
identity
of
the
person.
F
H
You
Mary
a
couple
of
questions,
so
first
I
asked
the
question
about
code
enforcement.
It
strikes
me
as
a
this
could
be
a
very
useful
technology
in
that
context
and
unless
I'm
totally
mistaken
code
enforcement
is
housed
within
the
City
Attorney's
Office
right
now
right.
So
if,
if
the
City
Attorney's
Office
for
code
enforcement
purposes
wanted
to
use
this
technology,
they'd
have
to
draft
up
their
own
department
policy.
But
would
we
with
the
council
then
need
to
amend
this
policy
in
order
to
permit
departments
that
are
currently
not
listed
to
use
the
technology.
C
H
So
this
is
not
a
whitelist,
then
it
sits
there.
There
are
examples
listed
here
from
some
departments,
but
any
of
any
other
Department,
even
if
it's
not
listed
in
the
policy,
could
develop
its
own
set
of
guidelines
and
policies
and
use
the
technology.
Yes,
okay
got
it.
Thank
you
and
then
the
question
about
contractors
and
third
parties.
So
if
a
city
department,
Lakota
City
Department
authorized
a
contractor
or
some
other
third
party
to
use
this
technology
to
conduct
city
business.
C
C
H
So
in
that,
so
just
because
I
think
I
may
be
missing
the
point.
But
if
a
city
departments
say
Public,
Works
is
working
with
a
contractor,
some
other
third
party
to
conduct
city
business-
they
wouldn't
be.
They
couldn't
authorize
that
contractor
to
use
the
technology.
We
would
have
to
get
Public
Works
staff,
for
instance,
to
use
the
technology
for
city
business
right
as.
A
Okay,
seeing
none
we'll
open
it
up
for
public
input,
so
there's
anyone
who
wants
to
address
the
council
on
this
item.
If
you
could
come
up
to
the
microphone
here
and
be
sure
to
fill
out
a
speaker
card
either
before
or
after
you
speak
and
leave
it
with
the
city
clerk
and
it
looks
like
there's
not
a
huge
crowd
tonight
to
do
that.
So
you
can
have
three
minutes
and
you
can
fill
that
out
after.
J
Thanks
a
lot
Alex
Nia's
so
with
the
UAS
policy,
definitely
drones.
You
know
very
new
and
exciting
technology,
a
lot
of
good
uses
that
we
can
deploy
them
for
the
Fire
Department
police
department,
Public
Works
Department.
They
did
a
good
job
at
the
community
outreach
when
we
went
to
the
police
department.
I
think
there's
a
lot
of
legitimate
uses
for
this
drone
technology,
but
you
know.
J
Obviously
there
are
a
lot
of
concerns
that
residents
have
relating
particular
to
things
like
privacy
and
also
the
operational
use,
for
you
know
you
know
safe
and
also
for
lack
of
better
terms,
not
annoying
use
of
drones,
which
can
be
noisy
sound
like
bees.
So
there's
a
couple
of
you
know
policy
concerns,
and
you
know
they
typically
fall
into
three
buckets.
One
is
the
operations
and
the
use
case.
So
you
know
when
why
who,
where
all
those
questions
about
how
and
where
UAS
systems
can
be
deployed
and
what
they
can
be
used
for?
J
I,
you
know
tracked
with
a
bunch
of
our
neighbors
and
friends,
and
a
few
conclusions
that
we
came
up
with
your
kind
of
came
to
after
review
is
that
the
current
policy
for
operational
controls
is
very
broad
and
in
restrictive
on
get
we'll
get
into.
Why
and
for
privacy
safeguards
it's
almost
completely
lacking
in
Politan
privacy
safeguards
and
the
reason
why
is
because
part
107,
which,
as
has
been
referenced,
is
the
rule
that
you
know
places
restrictions,
and
you
know
licensing
requirements
on
this
utilization
of
this
technology.
J
You
know
they
go
over
things
like
you
know:
daily
operations
line-of-sight,
you
know
no
weapons,
things
like
that
operation
of
our
human
beings.
However,
you
know
that
law
or
rule
does
go
to
great
lengths
to
say
that
any
of
these
provisions
can
be
waived
at
any
time
after
going
through
the
appropriate
waiver
process.
So,
as
you
can
see
all
of
the
you
know,
restrictions
basically
can
be
waived,
so
the
rule
itself
says.
While
we
do
restrict
the
use,
we
can
actually
let
you
waive
all
of
them.
J
So
the
proposed
language
in
the
current
council
policy,
where
it
says
all
UAS
operations
will
be
conducted
in
accordance
with
current
FAA
rules,
we'll
all
of
those
rules
can
be
waived
and
that
just
leaves
Department
policy.
So
you
know
yeah
and
as
far
as
privacy
goes
again,
part
107
goes
to
great
lengths
to
say
that
this
rule
does
not
include
privacy
regulations.
J
It
says
that
the
FAA
s
mission
does
not
include
regulating
privacy,
and
you
know
when
I
looked
at
the
council
policy
here
it
says
that
training
will
be
conducted
according
to
the
current
FAA
rules
and
regulations,
so
the
civil
liberties
will
be
conducted
according
to
the
FAA
rules
and
regulations
which
the
FAA
says
that
it
does
not
regulate
privacy,
so
yeah.
What
we
are
asking
is
that
the
council
take
this
back
to
the
community
kind
of
like
a
privacy,
visioning
privacy
visioning
plan,
so
that
the
community
can
drive
this.
Thank
you.
Thank.
A
K
You
sorry,
you
press
this
emotion,
button
I'll,
leave
it
on
in
case
there's
a
not
too
much
comment.
The
CPP
see
the
proconsul
of
procedure
policy
and
procedures.
Committee
reviewed
this
policy.
We
did
look
at
it
as
a
council
before
I
think
it's
a
good
start.
It's
new
and
new
technologies
always
take
time
to
figure
out
I'd,
say
so
I.
You
know
I
think
we
should
go
ahead
and
move
forward
with
this
with
and
there's
always
room
for
changes
if
needed.
K
D
So
I
see
how
this
could
be
helpful
to
staff.
At
the
same
time,
some
members
of
the
public
have
raised
concerns
to
me
mostly
regarding
privacy
and
the
potential
for
mission
creep.
So
I
would
like
to
see
a
cap
of
some
sort
with
the
report
back
once
that
cap
is
reached
so
that
there
wouldn't
be
in
particular,
people
have
raised
a
concern
of
just
really
a
large
number
of
them,
and
so
I
would
like
some
number
at
which
we
would
automatically
revisit
this
Thank
You.
H
You
and
thank
you
to
the
CPVC
for
taking
a
look
at
this
and
for
staff
for
very
quickly
getting
back
to
to
us
and
all
the
questions
we
submitted.
Thank
you
the
concern
so
I.
Thank
you
for
explaining
the
third-party
issue
in
the
event,
so
I
trust
city
staff,
with
with
the
technology
I,
think
I,
would
be
concerned.
If
departments
at
some
future
date
would
have
the
ability
to
authorize
non
city.
H
Employees
use
the
technology
to
conduct
city
business
if
those
contractors
or
third
parties
were
not
also
subject
to
the
city's
policies
governing
the
use
and
I,
so
it
sound
if
I
understood
it
sounds
like
right
now.
Third
parties
conducting
City
business
would
not
be
able
to
use
the
technology
so
I'm
comfortable
with
that.
H
But
if
that
does
change,
then
I
would
like
to
see
the
policy
come
back
to
us
just
so
we
we
make
sure
that
you
know
we
I
want
those
folks
who
are
doing
City
business,
whether
or
not
their
employees
to
to
adhere
to
our
policies
and
the
other
thing
I'm.
Just
going
back
to
the
code
enforcement
thing,
I
think
that's
a
code
enforcement
as
I
understand
it.
H
It's
almost
entirely
if
it
is
private
property,
so
we're
gonna
be
using
this
technology,
presumably
in
the
event
that
the
City
Attorney's
Office
would
like
to
use
it
to
to
take
a
look
at
the
status
of
a
given
private
property
and
I.
Think
that's
important
enough
to
to
warrant
inclusion
explicitly
in
the
policy
or
another
way
so
either
to
provide
that
as
an
example
because
I
think
that's
a
big
one
or
if,
if
the
maker
of
the
motion
would
be
comfortable
with
this,
maybe
using
this
as
the
starting
point
and
and
make
it
a
whitelist.
H
And
then,
if
other
city
departments
discover
a
need
for
the
technology,
then
it
can
come
back
to
us
and
then
we
can
authorize
it.
So
if
the
City
Attorney's
Office
said
yeah,
this
is
actually
really
helpful
for
us
when
you
know
doing
code
enforcement
work.
You
know
what
you
mind
modifying
the
policy,
so
we
can
authorize
that
explicitly.
H
L
To
comment
on
both
of
those
two
things:
first
of
all,
on
the
second
one
in
terms
of
code
enforcement
and
the
policies
written
say
these
are
examples,
but
are
not
so
our
understanding
of
the
policy
is
any
city
department,
as
long
as
they
have
their
own.
Having
said
that,
you
could
certainly
amend
that
sentence
to
be
more
explicit,
that
other
departments
could
be
covered
as
well.
I
think
I
would
recommend
against
having
to
come
back
to
you
every
time
a
department
wants
to
do
something.
L
Sometimes
that
might
be
time
sensitive
and
the
whole
point
of
having
a
citywide
policy
is
you're
comfortable
with
the
overall
approach,
and
then
each
department
has
their
own
rules
and
operational
guidelines.
The
second
point,
I
just
want
to
clarify.
There
might
have
been
a
little
bit
of
a
misunderstanding.
There
may
be
situations
where
the
city
hires
an
outside
company
to
do
an
inspection
of
a
roof
or
something
for
us
with
a
drone.
A
Thank
you,
so
I
just
had
a
couple
of
comments
and
I
am
a
member
of
the
council
policy
procedure
committee
and
had
the
opportunity
to
ask
quite
a
few
questions
there
and
I
felt
like
we
had
a
good
discussion
and
I
just
want
to
clarify
that
something
we
discussed
there
that
sort
of
came
up
here.
It's
my
understanding
that
the
part
107
rules
and
it
the
city
cannot
grant
exceptions
to
those.
You
have
to
go
back
to
the
FAA
right
right,
they're,
not
something
we
can
just
say.
A
K
Appreciate
customer
Ramirez's
suggestions
I'm
actually
comfortable
with
the
way
it
is
I
think
again,
yeah
we're
starting
this
new
program
and
I
would
expect
us
to
get
some
reports
along
the
way
of
how
things
are
going,
and
you
know
I
I,
guess
I,
don't
envision
as
having
excessive
drones
out
there
right
away.
So
you
know
I
think
as
we
administer
the
program
the
longer
we
do
and
we
get
more
data
and
information
as
to
how
it's
going.
K
We
could,
you
know,
definitely
revisit
the
policy
if
needed,
but
I
think
as
it
is
right
now,
I
feel
comfortable
with
it
and
I
I
think
it'll
be
a
slow
startup
of
the
program
rolling
out.
So
with
that
I
will
make
a
motion
and
I
believe
I
need
to
read.
My
motion
is
to
adopt
a
resolution
adopting
City
Council
policy,
k23
use
of
unmanned
aircraft
systems.
We.
H
Don't
I
don't
want
to
belabor
the
point,
but
it
to
the
vice
mayor
suggestion
if
we
could
have
a
report
back
after
some
reasonable
amount
of
time
on
I
mean
I,
don't
want
to
just
like
sort
of
make
up
on
the
fly.
What
would
be
useful
information
but
I
would
be
curious
to
know
you
know
if
if
other
departments
begin
using
it
and
sort
of
what
the
intended
use
just
just
because
I
this
is,
this
is
uncomfortable
with
this
list.
It's
just
I
I
feel
like
it's.
H
Oh,
you
know,
other
departments
are
starting
to
use
this
technology
and
for
this
purpose,
I
think
that
it
would
be
helpful
for
me
just
to
get
a
sense
of
you
know
whether
there's
I
don't
know
if
it'd
be
mission
creep
is
one
way
of
putting
it,
but
that's
not
the
intention
here,
but
if
it,
if
it
does
become
widespread
across
other
departments,
not
listed
here,
I
would
I
would
be
I'd
appreciate
that
knowledge.
Thank
you.
M
M
The
public
information
campaign,
both
in
person
and
online
opportunities
that
podcast
social
media,
as
well
as
the
community
informational
session
I,
think
that
extensive
outreach
was
was
done
by
staff
and
I
appreciate
that
all
of
that
is
outlined
on
the
page
eight
of
the
staff
report
and
also
appreciate
the
consideration
for
the
ACLU
guidelines.
When
the
ordinance
I
mentioned,
went
forward
to
the
county.
M
The
ACLU
was
heavily
involved
and
gave
a
lot
of
input
and
I
think
that
that
helps,
inform
drone
use
policy
going
forward
in
other
local
jurisdictions
and
I
think
that
this
policy
actually
does
incorporate
that
I
also
support
the
idea
of
a
report.
Back
just
I
would
just
be
interested
in
some
sort
of
update
as
council
murmurs
mentioned,
I'm
not
prescriptive
on
what's
included,
but
just
would
be
kind
of
interested,
so
I'll
be
supporting
the
motion.

Thank
You,

O
This
aerial
photo
highlights
the
downtown
Transit
Center
and
the
art
area
leading
into
North
Bay
Shore
anticipation
of
increased
growth
in
North
Bay
Shore
to
transportation.
Studies
were
completed
to
plan
for
transportation
infrastructure.
The
first
study
was
done
in
2013.
It
recommended,
and
the
council
approved
a
most
shared
target
to
decrease
single
occupant
vehicle
use
and
increased
transit
and
active
transportation
for
North
Bay
Shore.
The
second
study
in
2014
evaluated
the
shoreline
corridor
and
identify
means
for
the
last
mile
connection
between
no
spacial
and
the
Transit
Center.
O
This
slide
highlights
the
corridor
study
in
its
comprehensive
program
to
implement
a
number
of
projects
to
improve
mobility
on
salon,
corridor
for
transit
and
active
transportation,
starting
at
the
South,
the
city's
currently
working
on
a
preliminary
design
of
a
new
Central
Expressway
under
crossing
at
the
Transit
Center
shown
in
green
on
Sterling
Road
and
connecting
through
the
100
Moffitt
development,
our
new
bike
lanes.
The
interim
phase
of
these
by
lanes
is
currently
in
preliminary
design.
O
The
stretch
in
blue
between
Montecito
and
Middlefield
Road
are
protected
by
lanes,
meaning
that
there
is
a
raised
buffer
from
adjacent
traffic
lane.
This
segment
is
in
the
early
planning
phase.
The
improvements
between
Middlefield,
road
and
peroneal
are
covered
by
the
project.
We're
presenting
to
you
tonight.
The
improvements
north
of
para
venir,
including
the
transit
links
extension
to
space
Parkway,
will
be
constructed
with
the
future
Plymouth
space
parkway
realignment
project
now
looming
to
our
project.
Tonight.
The
diagram
is
an
overview
of
our
project
limit
on
shoreline.
O
The
project
includes
the
transit
lane
between
middle
field,
road
and
para,
a
veneer
covering
five
intersections
with
a
total
length
of
approximately
two-thirds
of
a
mile.
The
project
will
also
include
pedestrian
bicyclist
utility
improvements
and
additional
turning
lanes,
we'll
get
into
the
detail
of
each
one
of
these
key
design
elements
in
the
following
slides.
O
The
transit
Lane
our
shoreline,
will
serve
both
public
and
private
bus
shuttles.
These
photos
are
example
of
current
and
potential
bus
and
shuttle
operators
that
can
use
the
transit
Lane.
The
current
plan
is
to
allow
buses
with
10
or
more
passenger
capacity
that
is
defined
by
California
Vehicle
Code,
section
233
to
use
the
transit
Lane.
O
This
photo
shows
a
dedicated
transit
Lane
in
Sacramento
and
provides
an
example
of
what
our
transit
lanes
on
shore
line
will.
Look
like.
The
lane
will
be
12
feet
wide
with
2
feet
raised
buffer
on
each
side
to
separate
the
transit
lane
from
other
vehicles.
The
Lange
opening
in
intersection
will
have
rare
payment
color
with
bus.
Only
markings
to
clearly
distinguish
it
from
general
use
lanes
at
this.
No
needle
and
we'll
also
have
transit
signal
and
signage
to
direct
bus
traffic.
O
O
This
next
slide
is
shown
a
plan
view
as
if
you
were
looking
down
from
above
at
shoreline
in
Terra
Bella
intersection.
The
area
shaded
in
orange
are
the
bus
stops.
There
are
two
bus
stops
in
the
median
that
will
serve
buses
traveling
within
the
transit
lane.
The
Crips
I
stopped
will
serve
buses
traveling
outside
of
the
transit
Lee.
O
This,
like
is
you
the
our
preliminary
operation
policy
rules
as
you
well
for
our
Transit
Lane
for
both,
as
mentioned
earlier,
the
lane
will
be
serving
both
public
and
private
buses
with
at
least
ten
passenger
capacity
trends
that
may
in
turn
and
exit
a
Transit
Lane
at
terminal
points
and
Middlefield
Road
and
Imperial
Avenue.
The
Lane
will
operate
on
weekdays.
It
will
serve
northbound
from
6
a.m.
to
2
p.m.
and
between
2
to
3
p.m.
O
O
Next,
we'll
get
into
our
pedestrian
and
bike
lane
improvements
for
the
project,
our
existing,
curb
and
sidewalk
will
be
demolished
and
the
street
will
be
widened
with
new
sidewalks.
The
project
will
construct
a
protected
intersection
at
middle
field
to
enhance
safety
for
both
cyclists
and
pedestrians.
O
Crosswalks
within
art,
with
shown
in
yellow
within
the
101
overpass,
will
be
enhanced
to
make
pedestrians
more
visible
to
drivers
for
improved
safety.
The
current
bike
lanes
through
our
project
limits
are
only
five
feet
wide
and
without
buffers.
The
project
will
construct
protected
by
lanes
with
two
feet
raised
buffer
between
Middlefield
Road
and
Terra
Bella.
As
shown
in
the
solid
green
lines.
The
bike
lane
between
Terra,
Bella
and
pear
will
be
improved
to
six
feet
wide
and
enhanced,
with
high
visibility
cream
by
lane
markings
as
several
locations.
O
This
slide
shows
the
protected
intersection
and
Middlefield
Road.
A
protected
intersection
provides
several
benefits
and
increased
safety
for
pedestrian
and
cyclist.
It
provides
a
physical
protection
for
cyclists,
pedestrians
waiting
at
the
corners
to
cross
the
street.
He
reduces
the
crossing
distance
as
well
as
placing
pedestrian
cyclist
ahead
of
vehicles,
making
them
more
visible
to
right-turning
vehicles.
He
provides
also
a
dedicated
by
crosswalk,
with.
O
The
current
water
and
sewer
mains
on
shoreline
Boulevard
within
our
project
limits
were
built
in
the
late
50s
and
early
60s
for
the
utility
improvements
in
the
project.
A
new
16
inch
water
transmission
main
will
be
installed,
as
well
as
the
existing
sewer
will
be
replaced
by
a
larger
21
inch
sewer
main
the
utility
pipe
installation
and
replacement
will
start
at
the
middle
field
intersection
and
terminate
before
101
overpass.
O
O
Another
design
element
the
project
is
the
additional
left
turn
lanes
from
both
approaches:
our
middle
field
Road
to
shoreline
Boulevard.
This
work
is
specified
as
a
mitigation
measure
for
the
North
Bay
short
precise
plan
and
will
be
included
and
constructed
by
this
project.
This
work
will
require
demolishing
portions
of
the
middle
field
median
and
replaced
by
second
left
turn
lane
to
provide
dual
left
turn
pockets
in
each
direction
from
middle
field
to
shoreline
Boulevard.
O
The
fourth
major
design
elements
in
our
project
is
a
dedicated
right
turn
lane
on
northbound
shoreline
before
para
Vanille.
Currently,
without
this
dedicated
right
turn
lane
vehicles,
traveling
northbound
shoreline,
often
have
to
wait
and
kill
behind
the
right
turning
vehicles
at
para
afternoon.
With
this
additional
lane,
it
asks
capacity
and
removed
the
right
turning
vehicles
from
the
through
lanes.
Therefore,
improving
the
overall
operation
at
the
pier
intersection
car
turning
right
would
have
to
yield
to
pedestrians
and
cyclists
proceeding
north
on
shoreline
Boulevard.
O
Because
there's
not
just
insufficient
with
on
the
101
overpass
to
accommodate
both
the
meat,
medium
bus
lane
and
the
left
turning
lane,
the
last
major
design
element
in
the
project
will
eliminate
the
left
turn
pocket
on
northbound
shoreline
to
route
85
vehicles
coming
from
north
of
101
will
not
be
affected
by
this
change
and
can
still
get
to
rally
85
from
shoreline.
101
overpass
vehicles
coming
from
south
of
101
will
have
to
use
eastbound
Middlefield
road
to
north
on
Moffat
Boulevard
to
get
to
route
85.
O
O
This
next
slide
shows
the
approximate
locations
of
the
16
heritage
trees
proposed
to
be
removed.
There
are
12
heritage,
trees
on
shoreline
impacted
bar
by
our
street,
winding
for
heritage
trees
on
Middlefield
impacted
by
the
additional
right
right
left
turn
lanes.
Excuse
me:
staff
presented
these
heritage,
trees,
removal
and
mitigation
to
the
Parks
and
Recreation
Commission
in
April
in
December
of
last
year
and
PRC
recommends
the
council
to
approve
the
removal
and
mitigation
of
these
16
heritage
trees.
O
This
next
slide
shows
the
additional
right-of-way
required
for
our
project.
These
right
away
acquisition
consists
of
up
to
six
feet:
width
along
the
property
frontage
on
nine
parcels
staff
has
reached
agreements
with
six
property
owners.
The
remaining
properties
are
currently
under
the
eminent
domain.
Proceeding
with
the
court
staff
continues
to
attempt
to
reach
agreement
with
these
three
property
owners,
but
we
anticipate
obtaining
court-ordered
order
of
the
session
by
the
end
of
the
year.
O
As
part
of
the
construction
coordination
effort,
we
will
include
these
lists
of
measures
to
minimize
disruption,
so
there
will
be
no
length
closure
on
shoreline
in
the
P
direction,
as
well
as
nulling
closures
on
any
constant
nights.
If
main
closures
are
required,
they're
mostly
taking
place
at
night
and
one
traffic
language
remain
open
in
each
direction.
O
This
slide
shows
the
various
public
outreach
effort
conducted
through
our
project.
We've
had
one
community
meeting
to
transit
operator
meetings
as
well
as
public
noticing
of
all
project
related
council
and
Commission
meetings.
We
also
had
numerous
individual
meetings
with
residents
and
property
owners
about
our
project.
O
With
our
project,
schedule
and
estimate
are
as
follows:
plans
and
specifications
for
our
project
are
nearing
completion.
Staff
is
waiting
for
a
Caltrans
permit,
as
well
as
PG&E
completing
their
engineering
plans
to
remove
their
utilities
within
our
project
lemon
before
staff
can
finalize
our
construction
documents
and
staff
will
come
back
and
see
Council's
approval
of
our
plans
and
specifications.
O
Later
this
fall
and
upon
council
approval
of
tonight's
item
staff
will
plan
to
remove
trees
for
the
project
as
far
to
avoid
bird
nesting
in
the
next
spring,
the
overall
construction
is
anticipated
to
starting
early
2020
and
finished
by
the
end
of
2021.
The
current
estimated
construction
cost
is
that
twelve
million
dollars.
O
Ann
in
conclusion
of
this
presentation,
staff
recommends
the
council
to
approve
the
removal
and
mitigation
for
16
heritage
trees
and
replacement
at
two
to
one
ratio
with
24
inch
box
trees,
as
well
as
to
amend,
mark
Thomas
and
companies
contract
to
design
the
improvements
and
Moffat
an
85
on
red
Thank.
You
staff
is
available
for
questions.
Thank.
N
N
E
Actually,
my
fellow
public
works
director.
That's
part
of
the
reason,
we're
not
approving
plans
and
specs
tonight.
Actually,
that's
one
of
the
things
we've
been
a
little
nervous
about,
particularly
after
McKelvey.
There
was
a
substantial
delay
there.
Pga's
work
here
is
significant
and
they
have
been
working
with
us
closely
on
designing
their
improvements.
E
N
Okay
and
then
the
diagram
on
slide
16
with
the
route
85
access,
so
I
just
went,
but
for
our
sake
and
the
general
public
sake,
because
the
first
thing
that
everyone
screams
at
me
about
with
this
is
that
they
think
that
if
you're
coming
out
of
North
Bay
Shore,
you
will
no
longer
be
able
to
get
on
85
there
and
that's
not
the
case.
They
will
still
be
able
to
get
on
85
it's
just.
If
you
are
going
northbound
like
you're
going
into
North
Bayshore.
N
N
And
then
the
last
thing
is:
if
we
hopefully
this
won't
happen,
but
if
we
do
end
up
with
issues
initially
with
unauthorized
vehicles
in
the
in
the
bus
lane
I
assume
we
could
do
something
like
you
know.
Stanford
has
like
pneumatic
bollards
and
things
like
that.
The
vehicles
can
trigger
I.
Don't
think
we'd
want
to
start
with
that,
but
there
are
I
think
things
like
that
that
we
could
do
if
it
ends
up
being
an
issue.
Oh
there's
other
than
just
writing
tickets.
But
yes,.
E
We've
talked
about
a
relatively
low
barrier
to
start
with,
so
bus
could
drive
over
it,
but
a
Prius
would
get
hung
up
on
it
and
and
then
we
could
do
something
more
sophisticated
than
that,
so
I
think
I
think
we're
gonna
play
it
by
ear.
Fortunately,
it's
straight
visibility
is
good.
It's
a
well-lit
Street,
so
it's
not
I
mean
the
hazards
are
relatively
low,
but
we
will
be
keeping
a
very
close
eye
on
it.
There
are
probably
a
lot
of
operational
adjustments.
E
E
B
I
B
O
B
G
I
G
B
E
E
B
E
P
P
E
Then
we've
acquired
the
right
away
for
Plymouth
space,
Park
and
I.
Think
the
that's
a
separate
project
I
think
the
one
the
one
project
where
we
might
have
higher
than
estimated
costs
I'm
not
sure
yet
is
the
VTA
bus
yard
for
the
offer
of
realignment,
we're
still
working
with
VTA
on
that
we
are
scratching
a
piece
of
property
and
I
will
be
coming
back
to
Council
with
that
I
I
think
that
is
the
one
that
we
may
or
may
not
be
within
our
original
estimate
on
that
one.
B
And
the
last
question
was
you
had
in
here
estimated
cost
of
12
million,
and
you
have
is
the
correct
saying
that
you
have
a
total
funding
for
13
million.
So
the
thing
will
be
fully
funded
project,
or
is
that
supposed
to
be
the
cost?
On
page
13?
It
says
total
funding
of
13
million
at
a
project
cost
of
12.
So
so.
K
K
O
The
reality
of
is
it
really
congested
northbound
at
2
p.m.
we
don't
believe
so,
but
I
think,
given
that
we
have
the
capability
of
using
this
Lane,
our
current
operation
policies
use
it
maximize
this
use
for
buses,
but
as
you
know
that
we
are
not
opening
it
in
the
middle
of
the
night,
knowing
that
there
will
be
no
congestion
at
all.
So
that's
our
current
operation
policy
and
it
can
evolve,
evolve
over
time
as
Nathan
and
Warren's.
O
K
E
Vert,
as
you
know,
closely
monitoring
the
vehicle
trips
in
and
out
of
the
North
Bay
Shore
we're
closely
monitoring
the
mode,
splits
and
I
think
that'll
be
a
very
important
piece
of
data
and
we're
also
working
on
automated
guideway,
transit
and
part
of
that
is.
It
is
a
conversation
about
dedicated
lanes
right
now
we're
working
on
grade-separated,
but
you
know
some
automated
vehicle
technology
may
come
out
of
that.
I
E
No,
there
are
no
current
plans
to
do
that.
We
char
line
corridor
study
ended
it
here,
so
that
she
could
pick
up
traffic
off
of
Middlefield
Road.
Another
reason
to
pick
it
up
here
was:
there
was
a
two
way
left
turn
lane.
So
there
was
no
landscape
median
to
pull
out
at
least
not
between
Terra
Bella
and
Middlefield.
E
K
Look
at
what
the
service
will
be
in
the
future
and
then
the
other
question
was
trying
to
remember
a
long
time
ago
in
a
galaxy
far
far
away
protected
by
a
cycle
track.
So
where
are
we
on
this?
The
cycle
track
and
I?
Remember
or
some
like?
Maybe
it
was
just
leave
it.
Some
part
of
the
cycle
track
being
on
one
side.
Is
that
still
happening.
B
E
E
There
is
a
bit
of
a
cycle
track
through
the
hundred
Moffatt
development.
Where
we
closed
the
Sterling
on-ramp.
Okay,
then
we
get
on
to
stealin
and
I
think
the
current
plan
is
to
remove
parking
on
one
side,
to
make
room
for
bike
lanes
and
to
do
anything
more
than
that
would
require
taking
more
parking,
moving,
curbs
and
some
other
things.
It's
also
a
fairly
low
volume
street.
So
we
thought
bike
lanes
would
be
sufficient
there
and
then
north
of
there.
It
is
protected
bike
lanes.
As
you
see
here,
there's.
K
K
E
K
K
E
D
Council
member
well
I
have
two
questions:
councilmember
have
a
koga
touched
on
one,
so
I
can
make
it
more
brief.
The
the
most
number
of
questions
I
got
from
the
public
were
on
observations
that
there
were
maybe
not
a
lot
of
buses
going
on
shoreline
right
now,
and
whether
there
was
a
adaptability
in
the
future
and
I.
Actually,
I
asked
both
and
had
a
brief
conversation
with
representatives
from
Google
when
they
said
that
that
they
would
they
would
have
when
Caltrain
was
electrified
and
the
lane
was
in.
D
They
did
anticipate
more
employees
using
that
route
as
it
was
faster
and
that
they
had
been
talking
to
Public
Works
about
that.
So
if
that,
in
other
ways
that
they
might
adapt
their
current
buses-
and
you
know
other
transportation
enabling
things
like
paying
for
Caltrans.
But
if
you,
since
that
was
the
major
thing
people
ask
me,
I,
don't
know
if
you
have
any
additional
comments
on
adaptability
in
the
future.
Yeah.
E
E
16
may
not
sound
like
a
lot,
but
if
you've
got
25
people
in
them,
it's
400
people
and
that
translates
into
a
lot
of
cars.
So
it's
still
moving
a
lot
of
people
and
I
think
what
we
envision
is
as
we
build
infrastructure
like
this,
then
as
we
extend
it
to
to
space
Park.
As
we
make
improvements
at
the
downtown
Transit
Center
to
encourage
more
shuttles
as
Cal
train
service
improves,
then
the
companies
will
adapt
to
the
infrastructure
they
have
available
to
them
and
that
number
will
rise.
D
Thank
you.
The
second
question
is
that
I'm
wondering
because
there's
going
to
be,
you
know
a
good
amount
of
disruption
in
the
neighborhood,
no
more
pavement,
whether
we
can
do
better
than
the
two
to
one
tree
replacement
ratio.
I
think
that
more
trees
could
really
be
an
asset
to
that
corridor
and
to
the
neighborhood
and
I'm
wondering
whether
there's
a
way
of
fitting
Lorien.
O
Currently,
based
on
the
constraints
on
our
project
footprint,
there's
very
limited
space
available
to
plant
trees,
already
we're
taking
available
spaces
on
the
outside
in
the
median
north
of
101,
mostly
in
front
of
Computer
History
Museum.
As
you
know,
there's
what
much
wider
planting
areas
south
of
101
we're
already.
O
D
A
Any
other
questions
from
Council
members,
so
I
had
the
opportunity
to
meet
with
staff
last
week
and
I
appreciated
that
meeting
I
had
lots
of
questions.
Questions
that
folks,
who
live
here
had
asked
me
and
I
feel
like
I,
got
a
much
better
appreciation
for
everything
that
has
gone
into
planning.
This
and
I
was
not
on
the
council
when
this
all
came
about,
and
so
it
was
good
for
me
to
hear
all
that
firsthand
from
the
folks
who've
been
working
on
this
for
years
and
I
do
feel
much
more
comfortable
with
it.
A
O
We
do
have
pre-entered
modeling,
and
but
that
is
not
the
model
where
we
built
our
project
around,
because
we
do
know
that,
with
the
pre-emptive
say,
knowing
it
will
really
disrupt
the
intersection
signals
for
other
modes
of
travels,
but
we
do
have
to
be
empty
modeling.
You
know
in
our
project,
okay,.
A
O
To
my
knowledge,
if
those
are
buses
that
are
part
of
the
Google
buses
that
are
utilizing,
registers
and
Santonio,
they
potentially
will
have
shift
their
traffic
operations
based
on
our
available
infrastructure.
But
as
far
as
firm
numbers
staff
doesn't
have
any
available
information.
We
do
have
in
our
outreach
speaking
to
various
transit
operators
and
they're
supportive
for
the
project
and
then
I
think
there's
a
correlation
between
having
a
reliable
bus
service
that
doesn't
really
delay
them
and
with
increased
ridership
and
with
the
increased
ridership.
Obviously
there
will
be
more
services.
A
Okay,
well
open
this
up
for
our
public
comment.
So
if
there's
any
members
of
the
audience
who
wish
to
address
the
council
on
this
topic,
please
you
know
the
first
one
come
up
to
the
microphone,
be
sure
to
fill
out
a
blue
card
and
leave
it
with
our
city
clerk
either
before
or
after
you
speak,
and
if
it's
been
a
while,
since
you've
been
here,
we
have
at
the
end
of
the
three
minutes,
a
chime.
A
M
S
Staff,
it's
been
a
while,
since
I've
been
here
a
lot
of
new
faces.
My
name
is
Karen
Moore
I'm,
one
of
the
small
business
owners
in
the
North
Bay
Shore.
We
have
a
Pilates
and
physical
therapy
studio,
I'm,
really
hopeful
about
this
project,
because
traffic
continues
to
be
a
real
danger
to
and
threat
to
our
business
and
I
also
have
some
real
concerns
and
in
particular
I'm
looking
at
the
staff
report
and
on
page
12
there's
something
that's
just
would
love
some
clarification
on
it.
S
It
says
two
lines
on
shoreline:
Boulevard
will
remain
open
and
accessible
to
traffic
in
the
peak
direction.
So
my
question
is:
will
the
Alpine
outbound
lanes
also
be
two
lanes?
Are
we
talking
four
lanes
total
or
two,
because
if
there
is
any
small
little
glitch
in
the
system,
the
gridlock
that
happens
in
north
bay
shore
is
incredible
and
we
lose
clients
they
turn
around.
They
can't
they
can't
make
their
sessions.
S
So
I'll
just
ask
my
questions
and
if
you
could
clarify
that-
and
so
the
idea
is
we'll
all
construction
happen
in
the
evening,
because
there
is
definitely
traffic
throughout
the
day
there.
The
commuting
hours
are
not
sort
of
that
small
window
and
people
are
coming
in
and
leaving.
So
if
something
goes
down
to
a
one
lane,
it
will
impact
the
outbound
lanes
as
well.
With
with
that
said,
I
just
want
to
make
a
comment
that
the
light
light
synchronization
on
shoreline
could
be
improved.
S
There
are
some
times
where
it's
just
gridlock,
because
things
are
backed
up
from
further
down
shoreline
and
if
they
could,
there
could
be
a
smoother
system
of
making
sure
that
the
greens
move
people
along.
Otherwise,
the
the
off-ramp
is
just
backed
up
onto
Highway
one
have
a
101
and
I
guess
those
those
are.
My
key
questions
is
just
that
during
construction.
Are
this
isn't
gonna,
be
so
really
impacted?
So
thank
you
before.
B
S
Doing
I
haven't
that
was
my
other
question.
If
I
know
that
you
outreach
to
the
the
property
owners
but
we're
the
businesses
that
are
renting
and
so
I
actually
haven't
I've
signed
up
for
any
alert
that
comes
out
of
the
city
at
Mountain
View.
Just
so
I
can
try
to
stay
on
top
of
it.
But
the
realize
I
haven't
heard
about
this
project
for
a
couple
of
years.
I
think
since
I
last
came
out
here
so
so
yeah
I,
better
outreach
would
be
helpful.
Are.
S
Also,
thank
you,
and
that
has
been
better,
but
still
we
cancel.
We
closed
our
business.
A
lot
on,
especially
the
popular
concerts
we
just
had
to
in
advance
shut
down,
but
I
do
think
that
this
last
concert
season
was
much
better
than
the
previous
ones.
So
and
yes,
we
do
get
all
the
updates.
That's
great
and.
B
B
S
U
Hello,
my
name
is
max
beckmann
Harned
I'm,
a
Mountain
View
resident
I'd
like
to
say
that
I
am
speaking
as
a
private
citizen
I'm,
not
speaking
on
behalf
of
the
league.
I
am
an
employee
of
Microsoft
and
four
years
when
Microsoft
was
up
in
North
Bay
sure
I
took
I,
took
a
shuttle
to
and
from
the
Mountain
View
Transit
Center,
both
private
shuttles.
That
Microsoft
ran
as
well
as
the
m/v
go
shuttle
once
it
once
it
became
available.
So
I
think
the
one
comment
in
general.
U
Most
of
the
looks
really
great
to
me:
I'd
really
appreciate
having
the
the
transit
Lang.
The
the
one
comment
I
wanted
to
make
was
that
again
on
concert
days,
because,
specifically
the
amount
the
Caltrain
shuttle
runs
on
a
loop
that
they
drop
people
off
the
Caltrain
shell,
then
I
have
to
go
back
north
to
to
get
back
into
North
Bay
Shore
that
those
were
always
the
days.
U
We
would
have
a
very
disrupted
schedule
with
you
know
many
fewer
pickups,
because
it
took
the
buses
so
long
to
get
back
north
into
North
Bay
Shore
to
collect
us
that
the
way
out
was
actually
very
easy,
but
the
way
back
up
they
were
caught
in
the
same
concert,
traffic,
so
I'd
suggest,
as
we
sort
of
update
the
preliminary
rules
of
operation,
that
on
concert
days,
we
actually
keep
the
lane
northbound
to
the
whole
day
for
on
concert
days,
so
that
to
sort
of
optimize
that
time
better.
Thank
you.
Thank.
V
Apartments
at
shoreline
and
Middlefield
have
some
concerns
on
the
council
report.
This
is
on
page
three
that
the
average
time
savings
and
the
northbound
p.m.
peak
before
and
a
half
minutes
for
one
and
a
half
minutes
net.
Depending
on
how
you
read
this
stuff
and
in
the
evening
peak
the
average
time
savings
over
less
than
one
minute.
V
V
A
A
K
K
Q
B
Q
Neighborhood
we're
not
in
favor
so
much
of
the
this
project.
It's
specifically
which
we
are
using
that
Terra
Bella
shoreline
intersection
so
that
affect
us
was
the
closure
of
the
85
and
I
mean
one
of
the
benefits
living
next
to
a
highway
is
having
a
quick
access
to
a
highway
so
losing
that
and
going
all
the
way
on
middle
field.
The
way
it
is
ready,
difficult
to
get
out
from
the
neighborhood.
Do
the
u-turn
call
the
way
to
Moffitt
and
have
that
left
to
Moffitt
is
not
ideal
already,
so
that's
number
one.
Q
So
there
is
definitely
traffic
time
in
the
morning,
100%
and
by
the
time
later,
in
the
day,
even
tan,
after
what
maybe
11,
maybe
sooner
but
there's
zero
traffic.
So
having
that
raised
bass
line
and
not
be
able
to
use
whatever
is
available
right
now,
the
way
it
is
right
now
it's
it's
not
great,
so
we
are
helping,
maybe
one
thing
and
not
helping
something
else
and
making
it
worse
for
the
future.
I
think
I
think.
A
K
O
Yes,
so
to
clarify
knowing
two
progresses
back
up
on
shore
line
northbound
in
the
morning
and
southbound
in
the
afternoon
where
the
report
says
that
two
main
two
lanes
will
remain
open
and
accessible
to
traffic
in
the
peak
direction.
It
really
is
meant
to
say
that
during
the
peak
direction,
there's
no
length
closed,
I
think
the
report
was
written,
considering
south
of
it.
When
the
tooling
was
referenced,
it
was
referenced.
There
are
two
lanes
south
of
101.
O
K
O
I
think,
as
we
have
previously
described,
this
particular
project
will
construct
protected
bike
lane
between
middlefield
to
Terra,
Bella
and
the
future.
101
ped
and
bike
over
crossing
will
basically
pick
up
the
protected
by
lane
at
Terra
Bella
and
take
them
over
the
101
over
on
a
new
bridge
and
land
them
at
pear.
Avenue.
K
K
As
you
know,
a
project
for
the
future
as
well,
so
I
know
that
we've
received
concerns
about
the
number
of
buses
and
you
know
in
relation
to
single
occupancy
vehicles
using
mainly
shoreline
Boulevard,
but
the
this
is
really
looking
to
the
future
and
the
hope
of
having
more
folks
use
transit
by
making
transit
more
convenient.
So
you
know
the
mindset
and
I.
You
know:
I
totally
get
it
and
I'm
trying
to
be
more
conscious
of
myself
about
using
alternative
modes
of
transportation,
but
it's
been.
I
K
One
minute
four
minutes
doesn't
seem
like
a
lot,
but
I
remember
studies
back
in
the
day,
and
this
was
mostly
about
with
light
rail,
but
but
even
that
one
or
two
since
really
made
a
difference
for
to
get
people
to
think
about
using
transit
and
so
I.
Look
at
this
is
one
of
those
projects.
You
know
I
look
forward
to
I
mean
my
my
hope
is
that
down
on
the
road
we
do
have
a
robust
transit
system.
K
I
know
we're
studying
the
shuttle,
our
community
shuttle
and
how
we
can
maybe
consolidate
with
all
the
other
shuttles,
and
you
know
my
dream
or
my
vision
is
to
have
one
shuttle
system
in
the
city
that
goes
everywhere.
In
the
mountain
view
of
he's,
not
very
big
within
you
know,
ten
minute
headways
I'd
be
happy
with,
and
if
perhaps,
if
that
were
to
happen,
then
people
would
really
get
out
of
their
cars
and
use
use
the
system.
K
So
to
me
this
is
one
part
you
know
creating
infrastructure
to
to
hopefully
enable
something
like
that
to
happen
down
the
road,
so
that
and
definitely
you
know,
we
want
to
encourage
more
folks
to
bike,
not
quite
hoping,
maybe
down
the
road
we'll
get
that
cycle
track,
but
protected
bike
lanes
are
very
are
important.
So,
for
those
reasons
I
will
be
supporting
this
other
I
guess
we're.
K
Approving
the
amendment
to
the
contract
and
the
heritage,
trees
and
I
would
say
yes
to
the
56
folks
using
the
85
ramp,
from
which,
frankly,
I
had
no
idea.
I
usually
go
to
middle
field
and
mop
it.
So
you
know,
but
we
do
have
other
options
and
in
the
big
picture,
I
hope
that
we
can
move
toward
say,
more
transit,
friendly
community
thanks.
B
So
glad
to
hear
the
vice
mayor
was
glad
to
invest
in
new
technology
along
this
particular
route.
That
was
refreshing,
Thank
You
vice
mayor,
the
question
I
had
one
question:
that
was
a
follow-up
on
the
table
and
the
council
questions
the
Table
seven
Table
one
were
you
able
to
break
out
and
we're
under
transit?
I
gather
you're,
referring
most
of
that
transit
as
corporate
shuttles?
Were
you
able
to
break
out
public
transit
on
that
table.
O
I
B
That
I
just
want
to
confirm
with
that.
It
was
pretty
much
what
it
was.
So
you
know
we
did
start
this
in
2013
and
there
was
some
good
points
by
Joel
and
Albert
and
William
about
Terra.
Bella
wasn't
really
on
the
table
for
development.
So,
as
we
morph
this
project
together,
are
we
looking
at
the
increased
density?
That's
going
to
be
off
at
arabela
on
either
side
and
how
that
would
affect
this
particular
Transit
Lane.
Was
that
incorporated.
O
I
actually
was
approached
by
the
developers
who
are
working
on
the
residential
development
at
the
shoreline
in
Terra
Bella
intersect,
a
corner
corner
of
that
development.
I
think
they're
excited
about
this
project
and
I
do
believe
that
they
have
planned
to
have.
We
use
our
transit
as
it
becomes
available.
O
B
E
We
did,
we
didn't
do
any
bring
analysis
of
you
know
the
actual
like
design
of
the
the
transit
lane
because
of
the
land-use
changes
in
Terra
Bella.
The
the
environmental
document
for
this
I
believe
was
the
North
Bay
Shore
precise
plan
environmental
document
I.
Think
we
recognized,
though,
that
as
redevelopment
occurs
around
it
and
there
are
other
opportunities
to
to
use
the
lane
we
will.
E
We
will
adapt
to
that,
but
there
there
are
a
lot
of
moving
targets
right
now
with
land-use
changes
and
developments
and
we
haven't
stopped-
and
you
know,
stopped
design
of
a
project
like
this
necessarily
and
and
continued
to
have
the
design
evolved,
but
I
think
the
operation
of
it.
We
can
certainly
be
flexible
and
accommodated
itial
uses,
as
land-use
changes
occur,.
B
E
E
You
know
different
different
opportunities.
There
I
think
another
opportunity
is
if
automated
vehicle
technology
gets
to
the
point
where
they
could
occupy
this
Lane,
we
still
have
some
at-grade
intersections,
so
we'd
have
to
the
technology
would
have
to
be
able
to
deal
with
that,
but
I
think
there's
an
automated
vehicle
scenario
in
the
lane
as
well.
So
we've
always
seen
this
as
a
corridor
that
will
adapt
to
technology
and
right
now
the
technology
is.
We
have
a
lot
of
shuttles
stuck
in
traffic.
So
when.
B
B
E
B
Ecco,
the
vice
mayor's
comments
that
we
are
building
for
the
future
and
yes
and
in
the
near
time
this
could
be
somewhat
inconvenient
for
some
of
our
residents,
but
we
do
need
to
acquire
right
away.
We're
doing
there
pretty
much
with
VTA
that
we're
looking
at
right-of-way
is
so
important
to
get
our
our
transit
system,
our
public
transit,
so
that
people
can
get
on
it
and
move
quickly
and
take
advantage
of
what
we
have
out
there
and
reduce
congestion.
So
I
look
forward
this
to
I.
H
You
first
so
they
think
you
were
again
for
responding
to
the
large
number
of
questions
that
we
submitted
and
I
understand.
You
also
met
with
a
couple
of
residents
who
are
concerned
about
this,
so
thank
you
very
much
for
taking
the
time
to
to
respond
to
their
concerns.
I
have
a
couple
of
questions
based
on
some
of
the
operational
questions
that
have
come
up.
So
if,
for
instance,
has
has
the
response
to
one
of
the
written
questions
indicates
if
the
conditions
warrant-
let's
say
there
isn't
as
much
demand.
H
E
Think
it
changed
like
that
would
come
back
to
Council
I,
think
that's
a
significant
change
and
I
think
we
would
do
some
pretty
sophisticated
modeling
to
see
the
the
impacts
to
other
lanes.
The
traffic
signal
operation
I
mean
a
lot
of
car
pool
vehicles
is
a
different
operational
scenario
than
a
relatively
small
number
of
buses.
A
relatively
small
number
of
buses
is
pretty
simple:
they
don't
need
a
long
queue
jump
at
the
end
to
get
back
at
regular
traffic
and
so
on.
I
see
a
carpool
lane
being
a
lot
more
complicated
and
I.
E
H
Thank
you
and
then
similarly
Max's
question
about
if
I
understood
it
correctly
during
concert
season
or
concert
evenings,
you
know
using
the
lane
to
to
help
facilitate
the
flow
for
shuttles.
That
sort
of
circular
route
is
that
something
that
staff
has
already
looked
at.
Is
that
what
did
you
think
of
that
recommendation
that
recommendation
so.
O
We
carry
out
our
project
into
sort
of
the
operational
phase.
Currently
we
have
our
design
to
build
a
project
where
two
years
are
in
completing
the
project,
but
we
do
want
to
have
this
opportunity
to
have
our
preliminary
operation
in
place
and
as
as
we
putting
into
instant
to
service,
we
can
actually
expand,
as
the
knee
comes
up.
Thank.
H
H
I
agree
with
the
vice
mayor
and
councilmember
McAllister:
this
is
a
forward-looking
project,
as
we
anticipate
a
potentially
dramatic
increase
in
Caltrain
ridership
I
think
connecting
the
Transit
Center
in
downtown
to
North,
Bay
Shore
becomes
increasingly
important,
and
this
is
I
think
a
very.
This
is
an
essential
project,
long
term
to
help
facilitate
that
that
connection.
So
thank
you
for
your
years
of
work
on
this.
M
M
I
M
Well,
you
know
I,
think
that,
for
for
me,
one
of
the
the
things
that's
important
is
finding
ways
to
do
mode
share
opportunities
throughout
the
entire
city,
and
so
I
was
happy
when
council
looked
at
at
the
El
Camino
Real
and
having
bike
lanes
there
as
an
opportunity
to
make
it
more
pedestrian
and
cycle
friendly
and
I.
Think
everybody
up
here,
as
well
as
in
the
city,
is
looking
for
alleviation
of
traffic
congestion
in
on
shoreline
and
in
tune
or
in
and
out
of
North
Bay,
Shore
and
so
I
feel
comfortable.
Supporting
it.
M
How
could
how
are
we
going
to
make
integrated
into
the
community
versus
making
it
something?
That's
not
ideal
for
the
community,
also
in
I
think
later
on
this
year,
we're
going
to
be
looking
at
scooters
and
and
other
items
for
getting
around,
and
so
as
we're
looking
at
the
smile.
If
people
are
taking
scooters,
how
can
we
incorporate
that
into
the
shoreline
plan
as
well
and
making
it
ability
for
mixed
flow
in
terms
of
cycling
and
and
scooters?
M
Should
we
should
we
go
forward
with
that
in
the
fall?
I'd
also
like
to
take
that
into
consideration.
I
thought.
The
important
points
also
were
the
noticing
of
the
the
local
small
businesses.
I
think
that
it's
important
for
them
to
be
kept
up
to
speed
as
well
as,
if
you
know,
community
members
want
to
sign
up
and
get
notifications,
I
think
that
that
would
be
really
important,
especially
for
the
for
the
residents
who
live
in
that
area.
Thank
You.
D
D
Chang
had
also
recommended
look
at
additional
places
to
place
trees
make
it
not
just
a
two
to
one
ratio
and
I
agree
with
things
that
other
things
that
the
council
has
said,
that
this
is
an
important
project
for
the
future,
and
it's
also
important
to
continue
to
look
and
adapt
to
needs
as
Terra
Bella
develops
and
also,
as
may
be
on
unexpected
things
happen,
more
fewer
buses,
etc.
But
yeah
additional
trees
are
important
to
me.
Thank
you.
A
O
E
Even
if
it's
not
done
as
part
of
the
ER
I
mean
it's
something
you
want
to
do
as
part
of
the
actual,
you
know
the
sequence,
a
has
some
constraints
and
what
you
do
and
you
don't
do
to
comply
with
sequa
I
mean
if
there's
thing
broader,
that
you
know
councils
interested
in
looking
at
in
terms
of
evaluating
land-use
changes
in
Terra
Bella,
we
don't
have
to
be
necessarily
constrained
by
the
secret
process.
Okay,.
A
It's
not
an
extra
lane
for
vehicles
and
I
could
see
where
it's
going
to
be
a
real
change
for
folks
and
I
do
imagine
they
are
going
to
cut
through
the
gas
station
they
do
already
and
they're
likely
to
cut
through
other
places.
So
it'd
be
good.
If
we
really
take
a
look
at
that
to
figure
out
how
do
we
keep
folks
on
middlefield,
as
opposed
to
cutting
through
all
the
other
opportunities
where
they
could
do
that
Alex,
it
definitely
backs
up
there.
A
So
I
think
most
of
the
comments
I
would
echo.
We
are
looking
at
this
for
the
future.
I'm
glad
I
had
the
opportunity
to
meet
with
staff
to
discuss
this
in
great
detail,
because
I
do
feel,
as
I
said
earlier,
more
comfortable
with
it.
I
appreciate
the
comment
about
more
trees
and
I.
Would
like
to
look
for
opportunities,
whether
they,
you
know
be
right
there
or
close
by
to
add
more
trees.
O
A
A
Think
the
one
thing
I
want
to
emphasize
is
that
I
don't
think
the
current
plan
is
what
will
ultimately
be
the
plan.
It
sounds
like
we're
going
to
continue
to
take
a
look
at
this
and
look
at
modifications.
Other
uses
different
hours,
all
kinds
of
things,
because
we're
really
trying
to
optimize
this-
and
this
is
a
great
first
start,
but
I-
think
it's
important
to
emphasize
that
we're
going
to
be
flexible
and
make
sure
we're
getting
the
most
out
of
this,
because
this
is
a
huge
project.
So,
with.
I
A
C
H
H
L
Clarity
of
motions
is
always
ideal
on
the
trees
issue.
The
currently
worded
requires
a
two
to
one
that
would
be
the
bare
minimum.
I
think
what
staff
would
do
is
go
beyond
that
to
the
extent
and
wherever
possible,
you
can
add
it
to
the
motion,
but
we
will
do
that
regardless.
I
would
caution
you
to
put
something
explicit
in
the
motion
about
a
certain
number,
something
because
we
won't
know
until
we're
in
the
field
and
how
many
and
where
they
would
go
in
terms
of
noticing.
Again,
you
can
put
that
in
the
motion.
A
So
we
just
tweaked
number
one
to
say
a
minimum
of
two
to
one
ratio
of
24
boxes
and
then
the
contract.
Okay,
any
other
discussion,
I
will
and
I
forgot.
One
thing
I
once
say,
and
that
was
I
hope
all
these
improvements
to
increase
ridership
on
bicycles,
because
it's
gone
down.
It
used
to
be
about
five
to
six
percent
for
a
couple
years,
and
for
several
years
now
it's
been
two
to
three
percent.
So
it's
disappointing
to
see
that
number
down.
A
W
A
W
On
June
18th,
the
Santa
Clara
County
civil
grand
jury
released
its
report
inquiry
into
governance
of
the
valley,
transportation
authority,
otherwise
known
as
VTA.
Its
primary
conclusion
was
that
the
VTA
board
needs
structural
changes
to
protect
the
interests
of
taxpayers
and
meet
the
transportation
needs
of
the
county.
The
city
is
required
to
respond
to
one
finding
in
three
recommendations
in
the
report
by
September
16th.
W
The
required
response
format
is
for
findings.
The
city
is
to
agree,
disagree
or
partially
disagree
for
recommendations.
As
one
of
four
responses,
the
recommendation
has
been
implemented.
It
will
be
implemented.
Further
analysis
is
required
before
implementation
or
it
will
not
be
implemented
because
it's
unreasonable
or
not
warranted
as
background
to
the
grand
jury's
findings.
Here's
a
brief
overview
of
the
VTA
board
structure.
The
VTA
board
consists
of
appointed
elected
officials.
W
So
the
city
was
requested
to
respond
to
finding
number
one
in
the
grand
jury
report,
which
basically
says
vite.
The
VTA
board
suffers
from
a
lack
of
experience,
continuity
and
leadership
that
the
directors
have
inadequate
time
to
devote
to
VTA
duties
due
to
their
city
responsibilities
or
other
local
jurisdiction
responsibilities.
There
is
a
lack
of
engagement
by
some
directors,
key
policy
and
fundings.
Decisions
can
be
dominated
by
the
county
and
city
of
San.
Jose
and
there
can
be
a
tension
between
the
directors
duties
to
VTA
and
their
duties
to
their
local
jurisdiction.
W
W
The
grand
jury
also
requested
a
City
response
to
recommendation
1c,
which
are
connected
to
recommendations,
1a
and
1b
recommendation
1a
is
that
VTA
should
commission
a
study
at
the
governance
structures,
successful
large
city
transportation
agencies
looking
at
factors
such
as
the
board
size,
the
methods
of
selection
of
board
members
are
they
directly
elected
appointed
elected
officials?
Non
elected
officials
of
the
whole
range,
the
term
potential
terms
board
members
that
the
director
qualifications
and
how
they
represent
their
constituent
communities
recommendation
won't
be.
W
Is
the
county's
to
do
the
same
study
recommendation
1c
is
that
each
city
should
prepare
a
written
report
on
VTA's
governance
structure.
Looking
at
all
of
these
same
factors
that
the
study
in
one
mention
of
1a
will
look
at
and
provide
this
report
to
VTA
and
the
County
Board
of
Supervisors
staffs
proposed
response
is
that
the
city
will
not
prepare
the
report
as
specified
because
it
is
unreasonable.
W
Our
primary
concern
general
concern
with
the
grand
jury's
recommendations
is
that
it
does
not
include
a
process
for
developing
consensus
on
potential
changes
among
the
cities
and
the
county
for
the
VTA
board.
Also
having
two
separate
studies
and
15.
Individual
City
reports
is
an
inefficient
use
of
scarce
resources.
We
feel
that
the
most
productive
way
to
proceed
would
be
for
the
city
to
provide
input
after
the
comparative
study
is
completed
and
prior
to
developing
consensus
on
any
changes
to
the
VTA
board.
W
In
addition,
we
are
recommending
the
city
join
with
some
of
our
neighboring
cities
in
suggesting
that
an
independent
organization
such
as
a
cities
association,
prepare
a
study.
It
can
be
in
addition
to
VTA
study
and
lead
a
collaborative
process
with
the
cities.
This
could
take
the
place
of
each
of
the
of
the
15
cities
having
to
prepare
their
own
individual
reports.
W
W
The
grand
jury
also
is
requiring
responses
to
recommendations.
1
d,
&
1e,
both
of
these
recommendations,
propose
changes
to
state
enabling
legislation
for
the
VTA
board.
Our
recommendation
is
that
we
respond
that
this
requires
further
analysis
before
implementing.
We
feel
it
is
premature
to
commit
to
proposing
or
supporting
legislation
prior
to
completing
the
studies
and
developing
consensus
on
potential
changes.
Then
that
concludes
staff
report
and
will
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions
you
have.
A
K
You
so
I
read
their
our
letter
response
letter
and
I.
Think
it's
fine
I
agree
with
the
points
that
are
made
in
light
of
the
question
that
we
were
asked
to
respond
to
I
guess
for
me,
having
been
on
the
VTA
board,
having
chaired
the
VTA
board,
and
this
was
gosh
eight
years
ago,
seven
years
ago,
I
was
and
I
know.
K
These
grand
jury
reports
have
happened,
a
couple
of
times
with
VTA
I
joined,
but
then,
after
the
last
one
happened,
and
there
was
another,
he
was
a
haze
report
and
we
had
the
recession
and
we
had
the
close
of
forty
million
dollar
deficit.
I
guess
I
to
be
honest,
I'm
shocked
at
these
numbers
I
the
fare
box
recovery
back
then
was
14%,
and
that
was
bad
and
now
we're
down
to
seven
point
six.
K
So,
yes,
so
I
think
this
is
a
good
response.
I
will
also
say,
though,
and
I
don't
know
if
this
is
the
opportunity,
but
one
thing
that
happened
back
in
that
was
2010
I,
believe
it
was
after
the
last.
The
last
report
was
that
there
was
a
change
in
the
county
grouping
of
his
through
city
groupings
and
back
then
we
were
in
a
six
city
grouping
with
three
representatives.
It
was
Santa
Clara,
Sunnyvale,
Mountain,
View,
Los,
Altos,
Los,
Altos,
Hills
and
Palo
Alto,
and
they
changed
the
grouping
to
the
four
we
have.
K
Now
we
had
three
reps
from
that
six
City
grouping.
We
then
went
four
to
one
rep
for
four
cities
and
we
basically
lost
a
seat
to
South
County
and
Morgan.
Hill
and
Gilroy
now
have
had
a
rep
for
those
two
cities
that
came
from
the
North
counties
and
seat.
I
would
like
to
add
it
at
some
point.
Anime
I,
don't
know
if
this
is
appropriate
time,
but
I
would
like
to
look
at
or
suggest
that
we
look
at
that.
You
know
the
argument
back
then
was
south
county
is
where
the
growth
is
going
to
happen.
K
I
would
argue
that
that
has
not
happened
and
we
are
at
real,
in
fact,
where
we're
growing
and
so
at
a
minimum.
I
would
like
to
see
us
get
that
seat
back
in
North
County.
So
if
nothing
else
changes
at
least
we
should
get
our
representation
back
so
I
would
just
add
that
and
I
don't
know
if
this
is
the
time
to
add
it,
but
I
hope
that
we
can
revisit
that
down
the
road
Thanks.
B
Everything
you
spoke
was
the
truth.
I'm
for
the
public,
I
am
on
the
VTA
board.
I
am
also
the
chair
of
the
ad
hoc
committee.
That
is
reviewing
all
these
concerns
from
the
Grand
Jury
and
more
because
we
were
formed
before
the
grand
jury
report
came
out
to
see
how
we
could
change
the
structure
and
make
the
process
and
policymaking
and
the
voting
at
the
VTA
fairer
and
more
productive.
B
B
A
lot
of
these
questions
will
be
addressed
and
a
lot
of
the
concerns
will
be
taken
care
of
one
thing
that
we
had
a
discussion
of
our
response:
some
cities,
if
you
have
an
opportunity
to
go
beyond
what
the
grand
jury
record
or
the
law
allows
you
to
do,
and
Palo
Alto
and
Cupertino
added
more
to
it.
So
I
would
always
encourage
more
to
our
response
because
it
is
going
to
a
judge.
B
Even
if
it's
possibly
in
a
preamble
saying
you
know,
these
are
our
concerns,
but
I
have
met
with
some
other
cities
and
we
are
encouraging
them
to
be
I'm,
encouraging
them
to
be
as
local
as
possible.
One
polls
loves
talking
to
the
the
how
the
voting
was
done.
The
vice
mayor
was
that
to
change
it
from
the
cities,
I
think
we
have
to
go
through
a
legislative
thing,
but
what
we
can
do
internally
is
potentially
say
for
certain
amounts
over
such
a.
B
You
need
3/4
of
a
vote
and
therefore
it
sort
of
neutralizes
or
sort
of
balances
the
the
power
base,
and
so
those
are
some
of
the
ideas
we're
talking
about,
but
it
was
interesting
that
the
VTA
I
mean
the
grand
jury
report
came
out
with
all
of
these
things.
I
appreciate
staff
report
on
this
one.
It's
there's
a
lot
of
issues
going
on
in
here
and
I
think
this
is
a
start
to
a
small
reform
of
ETA
because
it
needs
it.
A
So,
in
response
to
the
vice
mayor,
I
think
what
happened?
One
of
the
things
that
happened
because
we're
seeing
this
across
country
is
more
people
are
taking
the
ride,
hailing
companies
and
it's
having
a
huge
impact
on
public
transportation,
so
I
believe
I
read
in
New,
York
City,
Ryder
ships
down
three
percentage
points,
not
so
a
total
of
three
percentage
points
and
and
I
can
imagine
the
same
thing
is
happening
here.
B
Discuss
this
with
staff-
and
they
did
sort
of-
we
did
add
some
items
to
it,
but
depending
on,
if
we
went
with
the
letter
of
the
law
saying
when
you
respond
to
a
grand
jury
report,
you're
limited
to
agree,
disagree
or
partially,
and
that
you
have
to
put
your
responses
with
some
that
that
category
I
think
our
city
attorney
could
help
me
out
or
Don
could
help
us
out
on
that.
One
and
the
ad
hoc
committee
will
definitely
be
adding
more
recommendations.
But
if
the
city
manager
has
a
comment
on
this,
one
yeah.
L
There's
a
we,
you
know
we
are
legally
bound
to
respond
a
certain
way.
We
have
sort
of
gone
beyond
that
and
added
a
little
bit
of
commentary
and
in
the
follow
of
paragraphs,
do
cover
the
concept
of
you
know
the
kinds
of
things
we
want
them
to
look
at,
including
a
supermajority
but
vice-mayor
suggestion
for
directly-elected.
L
We
don't
address
that
explicitly,
but
that
certainly
would
be
the
kind
of
reform
and
or
the
you
know,
the
adjustment
in
the
seedings
I
think
those
are
the
kinds
of
things
we'd
be
looking
for
in
the
options
that
come
back
I
think
we
could
probably
find
a
way
to
be
more
explicit,
not
prescriptive,
that
that's
what
we
want,
but
these
are
the
kinds
of
options
we
hope
will
be
explored.
If
that's
the
wish
of
the
council.
W
And,
in
fact,
just
to
note
that
was
part
of
the
grand
jury's
recommendation
1a
is
that
the
study
will
consider
directly
elected
as
well
as
the
continuing
the
appointed
elected
and,
as
I
said,
the
potential
of
appointed
non
elected
officials.
So
the
grand
jury
report
already
specifies
that
they
think
all
of
these
options
should
be
explored
and
studied.
K
So
what
would
you
suggest?
We
include
in
the
letter
the
issue
of
the
seats
and
North
County,
regaining
that
at
least
regaining
that
seat?
If
not
I
mean
the
argument
is
about
population
and
and
San
Jose
has
have
fun
seats
because
of
their
population,
but
it's
not
everywhere
else
is
not
based
on
population
and
I.
Think
it
just
needs
to
be
a
fair.
L
I
L
B
Like
to
comment,
the
Palo
Alto
did
go
specifically
to
they
needed
a
vote.
You
know,
so
they
were
being
more
scripted.
One
of
the
other
items
is:
does
the
county
really
need
two
people,
because
San
Jose
incorporates
a
lot
of
what
the
county
does,
and
so
is
that
one
too
many
seats
for
the
county
I
mean
so
a
lot
of
the
all?
These
issues
are
going
to
be
looked
at
and
discussed,
but
if
the
board,
if
the
council
wants
to
be
more
prescriptive,
I
would
support
any
additional
comments.
So.
W
Our
recommendation
would
be
the
studies
need
to
go
back
to
all
the
cities,
including
us,
for
review
and
comment
and
whether
they
bring
them
back
or
not,
we'll
be
monitoring
it
and
we'll
bring
them
back
aye.
One
suggestion
would
be
that
we
could
add
a
sentence
in
the
response
saying.
We
generally
concur
with
the
study
parameters
proposed
by
the
grand
jury,
which
should
include
these
different
possible
methods
of
selecting
the
members
how
the
representation
is
determined.
Palo
Alto
suggested
other
avenues.
W
K
B
It
says
we're
going
to
be
adding
a
thousand
close
to
over
a
hundred
thousand
people
like
that
237
North,
Bay
short
corridor
and
yet
we're
not
adding
any
transportation.
Oh
excuse
me,
237
is
making
an
express
lane,
therefore,
making
the
HOV
Lane
become
one
and
then
moving
everybody
to
the
other
two
lanes,
but
yeah
that
that
is
definitely
a
criteria
that
should
be
considered.
I
B
Consideration
of
employment,
centers
super
majority
over
a
certain
threshold
of
dollars
have
the
cities
have
the
opportunity
to
comment
back
to
the
grand
jury?
Actually,
it's
gone
to
the
judge.
If
I'm
not
mistaken,
the
reports,
the
VTA
report-
and
you
want
something
any
studies
done
and
then
we're
looking
at
in.
Q
I
B
Cities
already
mentioned
that
they
would
like
to
see
this
again.
There
was
a
we've
talked
to
some
other
cities
and
they're
interested
in
doing
the
city.
Association,
and
some
cities
have
also
already
offered
to
put
some
money
towards
that
too.
Also,
so
that's
something
that
this
council
may
want
to
consider
down.
The
road
is
so
the
Association
may
consider
them
funding
it.
I
think.
L
A
I
W
K
Thank
you
so
I
hope
everyone
had
a
great
summer,
but
over
the
summer,
as
we
all
know,
we
had
the
unfortunate
incident
at
the
Gilroy
Garlic
Festival
with
the
mass
shootings,
and
we
continue
to
see
more
of
those
throughout
the
country.
I've
had
many
residents
come
up
to
me
asking
you
know,
what
can
we
do
and
I
did
propose
this
during
our
goal?
Setting
I
didn't
get
quite
good
enough
of
a
majority
to
look
at
this,
but
in
light
of
the
increase
issues,
concerns
around
safety
and
gun
safety.
K
I
was
I
wanted
to
ask
all
of
you.
If
you
would
reconsider
and
I'm
happy
to.
You
know,
look
at
what
we
might
have
to
take
off
our
work
plan
to
do
it,
but
doing
a
an
overview
of
gun
safety
and
measures,
policies
that
I
know
the
state
has.
Some
I
was
mostly
focused
on
Sunnyvale
because
as
a
city,
they've
passed,
gun
safety
measures
and
they've
been
tested
in
court
and
are
have
been
solid,
but
my
hope
was
that
maybe
we
could
look
at
adopting
similar
policies
around
gun
safety.
I
K
L
The
issue
before
you
tonight
is
whether
or
not
to
agendize
a
discussion
on
a
future
agenda
to
talk
about
it.
In
that
item,
we
could
get
more
clarity
about
what
is
or
isn't
included
as
part
of
it,
as
well
as
the
trade-offs
and
the
workload
implications
of
doing
it.
Just
for
the
record,
I
believe
Mountain
View
has
participated
in
a
regional
gun
buyback
in
the
last
year
or
two
or
some
only
open
to
doing
it
here
as
well.
If,
if
that's
the
countywide
priority,
yeah.
A
So
I
don't
know,
cancel
my
remembers
if
you
were
gonna
comment
on
that,
but
before
we,
if
we're
gonna,
move
to
another
topic,
I'd
like
to
close
off
on
this
one
first,
so
are
there
any
comments
about
the
vice
mayor's
proposal?
I
personally
do
support
it.
I
would
like
to
have
the
discussion
and
look
at
trade-offs,
so
the
motion
to
bring
it
back
for
us
to
discuss
I
do
support.
D
A
I
B
L
N
I
was
just
gonna
say
two
things
one
would
be
I
would
hope.
As
part
of
that
agenda
item
discussion,
we
could
talk
about
how
the
city's
association
might
play
into
that,
and
then
the
other
would
be
I.
I
hesitate
to
do
it
before
the
end
of
the
year,
a
little
bit
since
we've
already
sort
of
sorted
our
I
mean
it
folks
I
mean
I'm
just
one.
So
if
you
all
feel
that
it's
going
to
be
more
important
than
the
things
we're
gonna
talk
about
before
the
end
of
the
year,
then
that's
fine
but
I.
N
L
For
tonight
is
whether
or
not
to
bring
back
an
agenda
item
on
whether
or
not
to
discuss
it.
That
way
could
certainly
do
before
the
end
of
the
year.
I
think
it's
highly
unlikely
that
we
would
bring
back
any
analysis
or
recommendations
before
the
end
of
the
year,
and
whenever
it
comes
back
even
the
first
one,
there
will
be
workload
implications
that
we'll
have
to
you
know
other
things
we'll
have
to
adjust.
We
would
have
to
look
at
you
know
what
the
most
likely
candidates,
depending
on
who
would
need
to
be
involved
in
this.
L
A
A
Okay,
any
other
items
that
council
members,
okay,
so
I'll
report
that
over
the
summer
we
had
two
meetings
of
the
Santa
Clara
Santa
Cruz,
County,
roundtable
on
airplane
noise,
and
we
are
working
on
our
strategic
plan
and
our
work
plan
and
I'm
part
of
a
subcommittee.
There's
four
of
us
I'm.
Sorry,
it's
an
ad-hoc
committee
to
edit
those
documents
to
bring
back
for
consideration
by
the
full
body
and
I
did
send
out
a
summary
of
what's
transpired
and
airplane.
A
A
Actually,
I
am
meeting
with
councilmember
Hicks
to
go
into
detail
about
airplane
noise
and
then
also
the
Sidious
Association,
actually
I'm,
on
the
board
and
you're
on
the
executive
board.
So
the
there's
a
transportation
subcommittee
of
the
board
and
we
had
a
call
to
talk
about
actually
the
response
to
the
grand
jury
report
and
we
did
decide
that
we
want
to
look
at
what
all
the
responses
are
from
the
different
cities
and
so
I
feel
like
that
would
be
a
natural
group
to
talk
to
you
about
doing
a
study.
A
A
F
Well,
it's
kind
of
a
long
one
tonight
the
council
will
be
meeting
in
closed
session
on
four
items.
The
first
is
conference
with
real

The

The
negotiating

is
Google

under

in
terms
of

for
acquisition
real

The
second
item
is
conference
with
real

government

54956.9,
the

A
public

nope,

I
F
Negotiating
party
julie,

so
those
are
all
for.
If
there's
any
public
comment,
we'll
take
it
now
and.
J
We'll
do
that
so
yeah
I,
don't
know
exactly
what's
gonna
go
on
with
item
eleven
point
two,
but
you
know
I
gamble
way.
You
know
the
residents
who
live
there
are
predominantly
Hispanic,
and
this
does
represent
a
pretty
big
displacement
risk
for
them.
Low-Income
people.
The
process
has
been
a
little
bit
rough
for
them.
As
the
developer
has
been,
you
know
like
they
introduced
an
initial
application.
Then
they
withdrew
it.
Then
they
modified
it
and
it's
just
been
quite
a
burden
on
the
residents.
So
you
know
I
would
only
say
please
keep
that
in
mind.
A
A
Thank
you.
So,
at
after
a
brief
recess,
we
will
reconvene
in
the
plaza
conference
room
for
the
closed
session
and
