just
to

we
are

public
comments
for
both
presentations.
The
kovid
19
update
by
city
manager,
kimber
mccarthy,
and
the
mona
loma
park.
Redesign
update
by
carducci
associates.
E
E
What
concerns
me
is
the
district
is
presenting
a
community
plan
for
a
school
to
redesign
the
school
so
that
they
can
include
the
park
area
within
this
school
and
the
in
the
school
itself.
This
is
a
four-year
project
that
should
take
tens
of
millions
of
dollars.
It's
not
clear
to
me
and
many
members
of
the
community
that
the
community
actually
or
the
school
district
will
need
this
school
for
a
period
of
five
to
ten
years,
while
it
it's
clear
that
the
population
of
the
city
will
grow.
E
The
demographics
of
our
city
is
such
that
people
are
now
going
to
private
schools
that
people
are
not
producing
as
many
children
and
the
people
are
basically
not
going
to
a
school
in
the
same
numbers.
So,
therefore,
when
we
look
at
a
school,
that's
going
to
be
built,
that's
going
to
take
four
years.
We
question
why
and
why?
Now,
right
now
the
neighborhood
hasn't
had
a
park
for
about
a
year
and
a
half
since
this
fencing
issue
occurred.
E
At
the
same
time,
we've
been
struggling
to
get
the
city's
attention
and
we've
been
so
far
unsuccessful.
In
that
there's
been
no
jua,
there's
been
no
plans
put
forward
by
the
city
to
do
anything
with
the
park.
No
lands
has
been
bought
with
the
city
with
with
funds
that
are
available
and
we
we're
still
waiting
for
a
park.
E
G
A
H
Thank
you,
mayor,
hi,
everyone
good
evening,
council,
members
and
members
of
the
public,
I'm
going
to
share
my
screen
really
quickly.
Here
I
have
a
short
presentation
related
to
covet
update.
Can
everyone
see
my
screen
thumbs
up?
Okay,
so
the
last
time
I
updated
you
all
was
december,
and
at
that
time
we
have
had
a
lot
of
changes
in
the
omicron
surge,
really
the
numbers
looking
quite
a
bit
better.
H
H
So
what
does
that
all
mean
to
us
here
in
the
county?
So
just
recently,
we
did
learn
that
the
state
and
our
county
lifted
the
indoor
masking
requirement
for
everyone,
regardless
of
vaccination
status,
so
for
our
county.
The
reason
that
was
done-
it's
it's
due
to
these
three
masking
metrics-
that
the
public
health
officer
said
that
we
had
to
meet
to
meet
in
order
for
those
masking
requirements
to
be
lifted.
So
our
daily
case
number
is
at
550
cases,
county
wide
or
below.
H
80
percent
of
our
popular
population
over
age,
5
is
vaccinated
and
the
covid
19
hospitalization
rates
in
our
county
are
stable
and
they're
low.
So
as
of
march
11,
so
this
friday
there's
also
a
requirement
for
masking
in
schools
and
child
care
facilities
that
will
be
lifted.
Now
that
doesn't
mean
that
local
decisions
may
be
the
same
as
that
they
can
be
stricter,
but
at
least
this
friday
march
11th
it
is
no
longer
required.
H
H
What
we
don't
know
yet
is
what
the
federal
government
is
going
to
do
with
places
such
as
airports
or
other
major
public
transit
modes.
So
we
are
expecting
that
march
18th.
We
might
know
more
information
about
the
masking
mandate
at
the
federal
level,
so
masking
is
still
strongly
recommended
when
indoors.
But
again
it
is
just
not
required
anymore
in
terms
of
what
that
means
here
at
our
city
facilities
we
are
not
requiring
masking.
H
We
are
following
those
state
and
county
rules,
but
we
do
encourage
people
to
wear
masks
and
to,
of
course
stay
home
if
they're
not
feeling.
Well,
I'm
really
happy
to
announce
that
we
do
have
an
update
to
our
library.
So,
due
to
all
of
the
changes
at
the
state
and
county
level,
we
are
now
operating
on
operating
our
library
in
person
indoors,
seven
days
a
week.
H
H
I'm
also
really
happy
to
let
everyone
know
that
we
are
going
to
be
having
our
multicultural
festival
this
year.
So
on
saturday
march
26th
downtown
the
festival
will
be
from
11
a.m,
to
2
p.m,
and
we
are
just
getting
the
booths
and
the
performers
and
all
of
the
festivities
in
order
right
now,
so
I
invite
the
community
to
come
out
and
celebrate
all
the
diversity
that
we
have
in
mountain
view
and
hopefully
just
really
be
happy
to
be
in
person.
The
last
event
that
we
had
community-wide
was
our
tree
lighting
ceremony.
H
So
we're
really
looking
forward
to
the
multicultural
festival
and
then
lastly,
just
wanted
to
remind
everyone
that
you
can
keep
up
with
all
the
latest
information
on
programs
and
all
the
happenings
that
are
going
on
by
texting.
Two
two,
eight
to
eight
to
city
hall
news.
So
again
you
can
text
city,
hall,
news,
22828
and
then
you'll
get
the
city
hall
connection.
So
with
that
mayor,
council
members,
I'm
done
with
my
presentation,
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
Thank
you.
A
H
Thank
you
mayor.
We
have
had
a
very
active
eviction.
Moratorium
help
center
that
has
been
underway
the
past
several
months.
We
have
had
both
in-person
appointments
that
are
available
weekly
at
our
library
and
then
we
transition
during
omicron
to
having
zoom
appointments,
but
I
believe
we're
going
back
to
in
person.
A
Thank
you
any
final
questions.
If
not,
then
we'll
proceed
to
item
3.2
monoloma
park,
redesign
update
by
carducci
associates
community
community
services,
director
john
marchant
will
introduce
the
presentation
and
then
vince,
latanzio
and
carly
denke.
My
apologies
from
from
carducci
associates
will
make
a
presentation.
The
doctor
ain't,
a
rudolph
mountain
view,
wisdom
and
school
district
superintendent
will
say
a
few
words
and
then
director
marchand
will
close
the
item.
I
I
I
I
During
the
city
strategic
roadmap
process,
the
city
council
prioritized
the
development
of
a
new
parks
and
recreation
strategic
plan.
One
of
the
outcomes
of
this
strategic
plan
will
be
to
identify
gaps
and
provide
options
for
developing
and
funding
new
open
space.
This
project
is
anticipated
to
begin
later.
This
fall
and
will
provide
a
significant
number
of
opportunities
for
public
input
throughout
the
development
of
this
new
plan
and
I'll
tell
you,
the
city
staff
is
excited
to
start
working
on
that
process.
I
As
you
are
aware,
one
way
the
city
provides
additional
public
access
to
open
space
is
through
shared
use
facilities
at
school
sites.
The
city
has
collapsed
collaborated
with
local
school
districts
for
over
60
years
to
provide
public
access
to
joint
use,
open
space
at
school
locations,
including
the
mountain
view,
wizard
school
district
facilities.
I
Another
council
priority
identified
through
the
strategic
roadmap
process,
was
to
update
the
joint
use
master
agreement
between
the
city
and
school
district.
Recently,
both
the
city
and
mount
view
was
school.
District
staff
have
agreed
to
begin
meeting
in
an
effort
to
finalize
the
new
joint
use,
master
agreement
to
update
and
clarify
the
terms
for
shared
use
of
facilities
located
on
district
property.
I
I
Originally
city
staff
requested
to
participate
as
members
of
the
district's
monoloma
working
group.
As
the
district
continued.
This
working
group
process,
city
and
district
staff
worked
together
to
create
the
current
pilot
program
to
delineate
space
during
school
hours
to
ensure
the
community
had
access
to
portions
of
the
open
space
as
the
district
changed,
the
focus
to
redesign
the
entire
open
space
with
the
assistance
of
a
new
consultant
team
city
staff
participated
in
the
interview
process
of
the
design
firms,
the
district
hired
carducci
associates,
professional
landscape
architecture
and
planning
firm
last
september.
I
I
As
part
of
the
outreach
process,
city
staff
had
the
opportunity
to
participate
in
focus
groups,
as
you
will
see,
staff
utilizes
time
to
communicate
the
importance
of
community
access
to
open
space
for
active
and
passive
activities.
During
and
after
school
hours
in
recognizing
the
importance
of
passive
and
unstructured
activities.
City
staff
have
modified
the
schedule
of
organized
use
sports
at
monoloma
to
allow
community
additional
access
to
open
space.
I
J
J
J
You
know
we
wanted
to
provide
an
equitable
public
outreach
strategy.
We
wanted
to
have
multiple
times
and
dates
for
input.
We
wanted
to
provide
engaging
opportunities
for
productive,
develop
design
solutions,
create
consensus
of
understanding,
develop
a
plan
that
will
benefit
everyone
and
encourage
participation
with
as
many
group
users
as
possible.
J
We
mailed
postcards
to
residents
for
communities
involvement
and
we
regularly
update
the
web
page.
We
email
updates.
We
have
online
surveys,
we
have
social
media
announcements,
we
also
put
community
board
postings
at
the
site
at
the
restroom
building,
as
well
as
the
fences
on
the
school
site
itself.
J
J
J
J
We
use
the
imagery
boards
as
an
inspirational
tool
to
allow
people
to
get
input
and
ideas
about
what
was
important.
Social
space
structure
play
nature
play
all.
These
are
images
that
we
just
gathered
as
opportunities,
hardcore
outdoor
learning
seating,
as
well
as
fencing
site
lighting
and
waste
features
as
well
as
water
features.
J
So
in
order
to
recap
the
input
we
had,
we
went
to
the
city
focus
group
and
we
develop
word
clouds.
Word.
Clouds
are
basically
the
amount
of
times
we
hear
the
word.
They
are
bolder
and
larger.
So
for
the
city
focus
group
we
had
maintenance
access,
we
had
community
access
is
important
and
field
use
by
youth.
Sports
is
important
for
the
school
staff.
We
we
had
a
mutual
understanding,
respect
of
open
space
and
site
for
site
users.
Delineation
of
space
was
needed
and
playgrounds
that
address
all
students
needs.
J
You
can
see
that
fencing
was
important
for
city
rec
leagues.
It
was
primarily
flexible
usage,
maintenance
of
fields
and
drainage
and
and
making
sure
it's
clean
and
usable
at
all
times
and
central
location
for
the
montaloma
organization.
Youth
organizations
for
the
seniors
we
maintain
openness
of
green
space
was
important,
looking
for
ways
to
secure
the
site
and
for
the
students
and
that
addresses
the
security,
and
yet
it
doesn't
use
fencing
walking
is
a
major
use
of
the
site
and
circulation
patterns
are
critical
to
maintain.
J
The
families
focus
group
was
providing
more
green,
open
space
play
spaces
adjacent
to
green
space
and
not
using
fencing
along
the
entire
extent
of
the
property
for
security
and
prioritizing
open
green
space.
Neighborhood
focus
was
preservation
of
the
open
space
and
finding
innovative
ways
to
secure
the
site
without
fencing
park.
Amenities
can
be
improved
and
community
access
areas
at
laura
and
anna
and
the
alleyways
are
dark
and
unsafe.
So
that
was
talked
about
as
well.
J
The
student
surveys,
we
asked
several
questions
to
all
grade
groups,
and
these
are
basically
what
we
heard
back
in
terms
of
play
elements
they
they
wanted
to
see
as
swings
and
ball.
Walls
and
the
other
areas
are
more
green
field,
more
areas
to
run
around
safely,
and
that
was
important
for
the
students.
J
The
community
meeting
a
we
heard
to
maximize
again
maximize
open
space,
delineate
access
and
no
intrusive
lighting
was
required,
was
needed.
No
fencing,
shared
use,
dog
access,
playgrounds,
safe
valleys
and
enhance
existing
site
amenities
and
that
we
had
another
repeat
meeting.
We
repeat
meetings
every
wednesday
evening
and
then
every
saturday
morning,
so
people
that
can't
make
it
in
the
evening
can
hopefully
make
it
saturday
morning
and
we
heard
more
information
about
gathering
spaces
for
community
openness,
improvements
to
blacktop,
bathroom
improvements,
shade
seating,
hedges,
over
fences,
upgrading
furnishings
and
exercise
stations.
J
They
didn't
think
they
needed
it,
but
the
school
is
unlikely
to
use
it
until
we
can
get
some
area
that
can
be
surveyed
and
controlled
by
the
school's
use
of
the
children.
The
need
for
better
signage
of
use
was.
It
was
important
to
people
green
fences,
so
hedges
instead
of
fences,
confusion
about
the
hours
and
boundaries
of
access
was
a
surprise.
There,
still
a
lack
of
understanding
of
exactly
when
they
have
access
when
it's
where
to
go
when
they
can
go
importance
of
circuit
loop.
Around
little
league
field
was
really
important.
J
J
The
public
outreach
schedule
overview
includes
the
board
of
trustees,
meeting
that
we
had
on
the
10th,
where
we
discussed
the
opportunity
for
expanded
scope,
and
we
just
discussed
that
about
looking
at
the
entire
site.
We
thought
they
were.
It
might
open
up
opportunities
for
increased
open
space
and
increased
efficiency
for
future
to
meet
future
needs
of
both
the
school
and
the
community.
J
From
that
point,
we
have
another
meeting
coming
up
on
march
9th
tomorrow
and
then
saturday
as
well
and
that'll,
we'll
just
be
giving
them
an
update
on
feedback.
We've
heard
today
not
collecting
any
updated,
update,
updated
information.
Yet
the
next
meeting,
with
the
board
of
trustees
for
the
board
of
trustees,
that's
on
24th.
J
And
that
is
basically
the
presentation.
These
are
helpful
links,
so
if
anyone
wants
to
have
any
information,
detailed
information
on
all
the
input
we've
gathered
to
date,
all
the
miro
boards
are
posted
on
the
website.
All
the
surveys
are

We

we
receive
regularly

so

it's

Thank
you.
L
L
As
we
are
all
aware,
mvwsd
and
the
city
of
mountain
view
have
enjoyed
a
six-year
partnership
at
all
of
our
sites,
our
community,
the
city
and,
of
course,
our
students
have
benefited
greatly
from
this
unique
partnership,
and
we
look
forward
to
continuing
this
partnership
in
the
foreseeable
future,
as
you've
heard
today,
vince
and
carly
have
worked
hard
to
understand
the
needs
of
the
school
community,
as
well
as
the
residences
and
as
a
result
of
the
process.
We
have
begun
to
take
a
more
holistic
approach
towards
montaloma
and
future
growth
in
general.
L
As
we
all
know,
the
city
is
not
has
not
only
been
a
leader
in
addressing
the
housing
and
development
issues
alike.
This
growth,
which
is
universally
embraced,
is
concentrated
in
the
northern
part
of
our
city.
Specifically,
three
neighborhood
schools
will
bear
the
brunt
of
the
growth,
vargas,
montaloma
and
theracroft
in
an
effort
to
realistically
address
the
growth.
Mvsd
is
heeding
the
advice
of
vincent
carly
and
focusing
on
the
development
of
a
community
neighborhood
school.
L
L
In
order
to
address
all
the
growth
that
we
will
have
to
attain.
This
is
a
very
important
decision
for
us,
because
I
think
all
of
us
agree
that
the
1.1
billion
dollar
price
tag
that
we
have
will
have
a
deleterious
impact
on
the
future
growth.
It
doesn't
make
sense
for
us
to
address
the
needs
of
montana
by
spending
10
million
dollars
to
re
redevelop
green
space,
when
what
we
really
need
to
do
is
focus
on.
L
We
are
planning
on
continuing
to
work
with
the
parks
and
rec
team,
as
well
as
with
cardigan
associates,
to
work
on
a
larger
plan
of
action
that
will
address
both
montaloma's
immediate
needs,
as
well
as
the
future
growth
needs.
I
will
be
discussing
this
in
more
detail
at
our
march
24th
meeting
and
I
look
forward
to
sharing
all
of
the
the
information
that
I
will
be
sharing
with
the
board
with
city
staff
as
well
as
city
council.
Thank
you.
I
Yes,
thank
you,
mayor
ramirez,
I'd
like
to
again
thank
vincent
curley
and
dr
rudolph
for
the
presentation
and,
as
vince
stated,
there
are
upcoming
public
meetings
later
this
week
about
this
project.
If
members
are
interested
in
attending
those
meetings,
both
vince
and
dr
rudolph
mentioned
the
board
of
trustees
meeting
later
this
month,
which
may
impact
the
future
direction
of
this
project.
I
The
city
will
stay
engaged
in
the
process
to
amplify
the
input
heard
from
the
community
as
the
district
further
shares.
Its
steps
for
monolama
school
city
staff
will
continue
to
provide
city
council
with
project
updates
in
the
future.
The
staff
will
also
continue
this.
I
will
also
schedule
this
item
to
return
to
the
city
council
in
the
future
for
direction
and
action
as
appropriate
when
key
decision
points
are
reached,
such
as,
but
not
limited
to
cost,
share
agreements,
review,
design
options
and
associated
access.
I
A
M
That
was
to
me
sort
of
showed
how
different
groups
want
to
use
the
park.
I've
been
talking
to
a
lot
of
members
of
the
public,
but
the
word
clouds
were
particularly
were
particularly
portrayed
some
of
those
uses,
so
that
was
that
was
helpful
and
thank
you
and
I
I
also
am
at
this
point
hearing
that
people
are
are
kind
of
liking,
the
pause
to
not
completely
replan
the
site
and
be
able
to
have
it
open
to
use.
M
N
N
J
So,
thank
you,
council
member
showalter.
The
green
fences
came
out
of
an
idea
of
not
wanting
to
have
to
look
at
fences,
and
so
some
of
the
members
of
the
community
on
the
saturday
meeting
of
meeting
a
came
up
with
the
idea
of
using
hedges
instead
of
fences
to
make
green
fences
out
of
hedges.
So
we
thought
that
was
an
interesting
idea.
We
were
surprised
it
wasn't
our
idea.
J
I
Thank
you,
councilmember
show
walter
the
I'd
like
to
talk
about
the
the
green
fences
and
yes,
I
heard
those
comments
during
that
saturday
meeting
and
you
know
the
the
idea
of
the
fences.
Sorry,
hedges,
not
fences,
I
think,
is
in
in
context
of
as
we
look
forward
to
the
the
redesign
of
of
this
space
and
being
able
to
possibly
integrate
some
of
those
elements.
As
part
of
that
process
is,
was
my
understanding
so
again
that
was
that
was
from
my
perspective.
N
O
Thank
you
first,
I
do
want
to
thank
everyone
for
engaging
in
this
process,
especially
our
residents
that
are
taking
so
much
of
their
time
to
participate.
Thank
you
so
much
I.
While
I
found
the
word
clouds
interesting,
I
was
kind
of
wondering
how
would
those
be
used,
and
you
know
I
was
thinking
that
if
there
are
five
people
who
participate
in
a
session
versus
20
people
who
participate
in
a
session,
are
you
waiting
the
the
words
or
or
how
are
you
incorporating
the
volume
of
input
on
a
given
word.
J
K
Yes,
thank
you
vince.
So
what
we've
shown
tonight
isn't
all
inclusive
of
all
the
information
that
we've
disseminated
since
the
public
input
process.
So
far,
so
there
are
word
clouds
in
the
public
mirror
board
where
we've
added
all
the
content
that
we've
received
so
far
from
our
public
input,
and
there
are
generated
word
clouds
where
we've
combined
the
weight
of
all
the
focus
groups
into
single
cloud,
so
that
we
can
better
understand
both
an
individual
groups
and
also
as
a
full
as
one
community.
K
I
O
P
Great
thank
you.
So
I
know
that
we
took
a
public
comment
for
both
presentations
before
this
item.
But
may
I
see
people
to
people
with
hands?
Is
there
a
good
way
that
we
can?
Let
them
know
how
we
can
capture
their
input
for
counsel
in
case
they
missed
it?
I
just
you
know
it's
talking
about
how
we
can
get
everyone
sharing
the
communication.
A
J
A
I
Thank
you
mayor
once
again,
as
stated
previously,
the
seems
like
we
need
to
get
through
a
couple
more
meetings,
possibly
with
the
with
the
board
of
trustees
before
we
have
a
clear
direction
of
where
we're
going.
So.
Therefore,
I
cannot
give
you
a
good,
clear
direction
of
timing
at
this
at
this
moment.
So,
once
again,
city
staff
will
continue
to
be
engaged
in
the
process.
Look
for
opportunities
to
bring
this
forward
as
as
an
agenda
item
for
action
when
appropriate.
A
N
Item
4.6
is
the
santa
clara
civil
grand
jury
report
response
there.
They
did
a
report
that
came
out
in
december
about
affordable
housing
and
in
this
report
they
compared
mountain
view's
experience
and
and
our
neighboring
cities,
palo
alto's
experience
and
things
that
both
communities
do
well
in
both
communities
need
to
work
on
and
we
we
were
really
given
a
great
deal
of
praise
for
our
program
and
I
just
wanted
to
take
this
opportunity
to
thank
all
the
staff
that
have
worked
on
housing
at
mountain
view
for
really
for
decades.
N
For
you
know
for
just
setting
up
and
and
carrying
out
a
very
robust
housing
program.
I
think
it's
it
says
in
this
grand
jury,
but
talks
in
this
grand
jury
report
about
how
much
effort
has
been
involved,
and
I
don't
think
we
blow
our
own
horn
enough
about
that.
So
that's
that's
why
I
wanted
to
you
know
to
to
to
comment.
A
Thank
you
any
member
of
the
council
like
to
pull
any
other
item.
If
not,
we
will
turn
to
the
public
for
comments.
Would
any
member
of
the
public
on
the
line
like
to
provide
comment
on
any
item
on
the
consent
calendar?
If
so,
please

raise

button

A
timer
will
be
displayed
on
the
screen.
A
Q
Now
I
have
a
comment
not
about
the
consent
calendar,
but
about
the
montaloma.
So
I
was
under
the
impression
that
we'd
be
able
to
you
know,
give
comments
after
the
presentation
without
seeing
the
presentation
without
seeing
the
comments
from
from
the
school
district.
It
is
it
it
wasn't.
In
my
opinion,
you
know
appropriate
to
take
comments,
but
if
you
are
willing
to
take
comments
about
the
montelumna
you
know
I
would.
I
would
welcome
the
opportunity
to
do
so.

Q
Thank
you
for
giving
me
the
time
to
address,
and
I
am
you
know,
unfortunately
going
to
speak
about
the
montaloma
issue,
but
more
broadly,
I'm
going
to
talk
about
you
know
the
the
like
the
city
guidelines
on
on
park.
Space
2.,
so
carducci
associates
did
a
great
job
in
in
like
running
the
process,
but
they
also
did
a
great
job
in
obfuscating
the
feedback
that
they
got
from
the
community,
and
I
attended
multiple
sessions
that
that
they
conducted.
Q
You
know
they
did
a
great
job
in
like
leading
the
discussion
towards
predetermined
outcomes
which
the
school
district
you
know
wanted,
and
I
don't
blame
them.
I
mean
they
are
being
paid
half
a
million
dollars
for
follicle
in
the
process.
I'm
also
not
going
to
address
the
district.
This
is
not
the
place
for
it.
This
is
the
third
iteration
of
the
district
of
you
know,
using
some
some
some
reason
or
the
other
to
restrict.
You
know,
members
of
the
community
from
using
the
park
space,
I'm
not
going
to
address
that.
Q
What
I
am
going
to
address
is
the
is
the
city
as
per
the
city
guidelines
and
as
per
the
quimby
act.
You
know
every
thousand
residents
are
entitled
to
three
acres
of
park
space.
If
you
take
away
monte
loma
effectively,
the
residents
of
montaloma
are
are
left
with
zero
acres
of
park
space.
Most
of
the
growth.
In
fact,
almost
all
of
the
growth
that
is
scheduled
to
happen
in
the
city
of
mountain
view
is
all
scheduled
to
happen
in
this
part
of
the
town
there.
Q
I
have
not
seen
anything
that
that
that
the
city
has
has
done
or
thought
about
what
is
it
that
it's
going
to
do
to
improve
equity
for
park
space?
We
have
a
severe
lack
of
park
space
in
this
part
of
of
the
city
of
mountain
view,
and
you
know
we
support
housing,
we're
all
for
housing,
but
it
is
not
fair.
It
is
not
equitable
that
you
put
housing
in
the
areas
of
mountain
view
which
are
already
you
know
lacking
in
park
space,
and
then
you
and
then
you
know
you.
Q
You
basically
restrict
the
access
we
have
to
the
existing
park
space.
I
would
like
to
remind
both
the
both
the
district
as
well
as
the
city
that
you
serve
just
one
constituency
and
it
is
the
same
constituency
which
is
the
residence
of
mountain
view.
Our
kids
go
to
these
schools,
you
know
and
we
use
these
park
spaces.
I
would
request
you
to
stop
having
these
individual.
You
know
systems
and
all
these
all
these
backroom
conversations,
but
talk
to
each
other
so
that
you
can
serve
the
same
constituency.
Thank
you
so
much.
S
Greetings,
council,
everyone
yeah.
I
am
also
going
to
speak
on
the
monta
loma
park.
I
I
just
I
I
one
thing
that
came
up
sort
of
with
the
the
word
collabs
of
how
how
was
this
chosen?
One
thing
in
the
community
meeting
on
saturday.
Fences
actually
came
up
in
the
word
cloud
because
people,
it
was
a
very
important
issue,
but
there
was
no
way
to
indicate
whether
it
was
positive
or
negative.
I
think
that
there
was
a
general
consensus.
People
were
against
fences.
S
I
think
the
presentation
did
a
good
job
of
not
including
fences
in
the
word
cloud,
but
that's
just
the
the
idea
of
hedges
or
little
green
fences
also
was
kind
of
trying
to
deal
with.
What
was
I,
the
previous
person
just
mentioned,
of
feeling
being
led
towards
a
predetermined
outcome
at
the
major
sentiment
was.
Do
we
need
fences?
S
I
think
the
idea
of
a
pause
with
the
whole
process
as
we
reassess
how
to
deal
with
things
while
we're
we're
looking
towards
growth,
is
a
good
one
and
I
don't
think,
anyone's
against
safety
for
kids.
But
I
don't
know
that
fences,
equal
safety
and
that's
just
maintaining
community
access
to
the
park
is
a
huge
and
major
issue.
S
T
Hey
there
thanks
for
your
time,
yeah,
I
guess
you
know,
I
remember
I
think
it
was.
Last
year
we
were
going
through,
I
think
mountain
view
was
trying
to
come
up
with,
like
I
don't
know
what
it
was
called
taglines
or
something
like
the
city.
What
makes
a
city
special,
and
I
thought
it
was
a
really
interesting
exercise,
and
it
made
me
think
really
deeply
about
why
mountain
view
is
cool
versus.
T
You
know
some
of
our
neighbors
and
I
think,
really
mountain
view
is
trying
to
kind
of
thread
the
needle
of
being
a
great
place
to
live,
having
great
jobs.
Here
you
know
you,
hopefully
you
can
buy
a
house
or
you
know,
start
a
family
here
and
also
maybe
take
the
family
somewhere
interesting
like
a
park,
and
I
guess
now
that
I
am
seeing
how
things
have
turned
out.
I'm
actually
not
quite
sure
mountain
view.
T
T
Those
communities
they
have
lost
that
park
space
I
mean
montalomo,
I
don't
know
why
we're
special
we
shouldn't
be,
but
somehow
there's
no
fence
up
right,
and
so
I
guess
what
I
want
to
remind
all
of
you
is
that
while
we
talk
about
montaloma
a
lot,
maybe
too
much
a
lot
of
you
know,
whole
neighborhoods
have
completely
lost
access
to
their
parks.
Unless
you
count,
you
know
before
seven,
whatever
30
a.m
and
after
3
30
p.m.
Access
as
a
park.
T
T
T
U
Well,
first
of
all,
I
want
to
thank
you
all
so
much
for
listening
to
the
issues
we've
been
having
with
avalon
at
555,
and
I
want
to
say
thank
you
to
the
city
for
hearing
the
issues
that
we've
been
facing
here
and
stepping
in
to
shut
the
asbestos
hallway
renovations
down
here
at
555
west
middle
field.
That
was
a
really
great
help
and
thank
you
for
working
with
avalon
to
start
following
the
legal
guidelines.
U
More
specifically,
I
want
to
thank
you,
the
city,
for
putting
a
stop
to
avalon
doing
asbestos
hallway
work
without
telling
affected
residents.
Asbestos
was
involved.
I'm
also
grateful
that
the
city
stopped
avalon
from
continuing
to
lock
residents
in
units
with
no
safe
fire
exit
during
the
asbestos
work,
and
thank
you
too,
for
investigating
and
finding
that
they
were
doing
work
without
permits
for
electrical
and
other
work
specifically
and
building
in
where
the
asbestos
hallway
work
was
stopped
in
february
for
these
investigations
to
go
on.
U
I
also
want
to
thank
you
for
helping
them
to
try
to
work
on
their
communications
with
residents,
which
has
resulted
in
a
letter
to
some
of
us
that,
but
the
downside
with
that
is,
unfortunately
they're
still
giving
residents
misinformation
so
well.
So
much
has
been
done
that
I
want
to
thank
you
all
for
I'm
here
to
just
also
share
that
we
do
need
some
additional
help
from
the
city
to
help
hold
avalon
accountable
and
to
improve.
U
So
a
few
things
to
point
out,
specifically
in
the
letter
that
we
recently
received
from
avalon
on
our
doors,
namely
they
continue
to
state
that
pets
can
stay
during
the
asbestos
work,
which
should
really
not
be
the
case
we've.
I
know
of
multiple
pets
here
that
have
developed
cancer
during
this
of
the
different
asbestos
work,
and
I
really
think
that
residents
should
be
informed
differently.
U
Also,
the
letter
states
that
the
low
voc
paints
they'll
be
using
in
the
halls.
Don't
emit
hazardous
flame
fumes.
It
specifically
says
they
don't
which,
from
my
understanding,
isn't
true
as
what
I
read
online
is,
it
can
continue
to
cause
health
issues,
which
is
why
residents
should
be
supported
in
being
out
of
the
apartment,
doing
the
during
the
four
weeks
of
renovations
if
they
feel
it
best
for
their
health.
U
U
The
letter
indicates.
Avalon
is
planning
to
only
give
a
month
notice
for
each
building
now,
which
is
much
better
than
the
five
days
they
were
giving
before,
but
they
they
know
the
renovation
dates
much
further
out,
and
I
really
feel
like
people
should
have
the
choice,
the
time
to
move
if
they
need
to
for
a
whole
month
worth
of
renovation
there's
more
to
it,
but
I'll
send
it
in
an
email.
I
just
thank
you
all
so
much
for
what's
been
done
so
far.
Take
care.
V
Hey
friends
so
about
mata
loma.
Now
this
is
more
of
a
meta
commentary,
just
as
a
regular
watcher.
I've
seen
this
happen
many
times
where
there
are
presentations
or
bulk
items
like
the
consent
calendar,
where
individuals
are
given
the
opportunity
to
speak
before
they
have
all
the
information
to
speak
about
either,
because
the
presentations
are
not
present
online
or
there's
more
information
in
the
staff
presentation
than
there
is
on
the
the
documents
in
legislar.
V
A
A
The
purpose
of
this
study
session
is
for
staff
to
brief
the
city
council
on
the
draft
housing
sites,
inventory,
draft
goals
and
policies,
council's
strategic
roadmap
action
plan,
a
project
of
identifying
and
developing
a
response
to
r1
and
r2
parcels
that
exceed
allowed
densities
and
for
the
council
to
provide
feedback
and
policy
direction
on
these
topics.
After
the
staff
presentation,
the
council
will
discuss
and
provide
and
provide
input
on
initial
housing
element
program
and
policy
direction.
X
Thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much
mayor
ramirez
and
council
members.
My
name
is
ellen
yaum,
the
project
planner
for
the
housing
element,
update
and
I'm
joined
by
eric
anderson,
advanced
planning
manager
and
our
consultants,
matt
kota
from
bae
and
bev
choi
from
esa.
This
is
our
second
housing
element
update
study
session
in
a
series
of
three.
X
So
the
two
key
components
of
the
housing
element
we'll
be
covering
tonight
are
the
sites
inventory
and
the
goals
and
policy
section.
So
first
we'll
talk
about
the
site's
inventory,
which
you
know
is
an
inventory
that
identifies
sites
that
can
reasonably
accommodate
the
regional
housing
needs
allocation,
also
known
as
rena,
which
is
the
number
of
units
that
the
city
must
plan
for
over
the
eight
years
of
the
housing
element
cycle
and
for
anyone
interested.
I
assume
everyone
here
is.
The
draft
site's
inventory
is
available
to
view
on
our
map
on
the
project
website
at
mvhousingelement.org.
X
So
these
two
categories
are
imminent
or
pending
projects
that
will
reduce
the
number
of
sites
that
need
to
be
identified
to
meet
reno
the
rest
of
the
sites
will
fall
into
the
opportunity
sites,
category
other
developable
sites
as
background.
I
want
to
highlight
that
htd
provides
kind
of
general
guidelines
on
what
type
of
projects
can
be
included
in
the
site's
inventory
and
they
require
additional
information
depending
on
the
type
of
site.
X
That's
selected
with
specific
threshold
for
sites
identified
to
accommodate
low-income
arena,
such
as
proximity,
transit
and
available
infrastructure,
access
to
amenities
and
services
like
schools
and
parks,
and
sites
that
aren't
too
large
or
too
small,
which
is
generally
between
0.5
to
10
acres
in
site.
Size
cities
with
limited
vacant
land
like
mountain
view,
will
likely
rely
on
the
non-vacant
land,
and
then
we
must
substantiate
the
inclusion
of
those
non-vacant
sites
in
the
site's
inventory
and
to
support
that
inclusion.
X
The
site
excluded
sites
that
have
displacement
potential,
for
example,
sites
with
more
than
three
units
or
csfar
csfra
sites
as
well.
As
you
know,
we
excluded
other
non-developable
sites
like
historic
sites,
parks,
schools,
hospitals
with
all
of
that,
you
know
again
with
the
support
of
epc
and
council.
X
X
X
And
then
the
next
portion
of
the
site's
inventory
is
you
know
we
want
to
talk
about
the
back
pocket
rezonings,
just
simply
because
the
drop
size
inventory
will
continue
to
be
updated
during
the
housing
element
update
process.
It
will
also
need
to
be
monitored
throughout
the
eight
year
timeline,
as
the
housing
element
is
active
from
2023
to
2031..
X
These
sites
here
are
sites
that
have
had
previous
council
support
and
and
or
allowed
in
the
general
plan.
So
the
major
categories
we
have
listed
here
are
the
transit
center
master
plan,
the
village
center
overlay
within
the
el
camino,
real
precise
plan,
moffett
boulevard
and
the
general
plan
village,
village
centers.
X
And
then
I'm
going
to
now
shift
to
the
second
component
of
the
housing
element.
This
is
a
highlight
of
draft
goals.
I
want
to
specify
that
the
following
goals
listed
here
and
then
the
policies
that
are
listed
in
the
staff
report
are
based
off
of
the
current
housing
element,
other
city
priorities,
and
it
overall
just
incorporates
input
from
community
outreach
and
then
the
epc
and
city
council
direction
from
the
initial
list
of
the
16
policy
topics.
X
X
In
the
staff
report,
like
I
said,
we
have
specific
policies
highlighted
under
each
of
these
goals
to
support
these
goals.
So
our
third
question
to
council
is:
does
the
city
council
support
the
initial
draft
list
of
housing,
element
goals
and
policies
and
to
indicate
if
there
are
other
policy
topics
that
should
be
included,
so
that
ends
the
portion
of
the
housing
element,
components
and
we'll
shift
topics
to
discuss
the
two
other
housing
related
issues,
but
not
part
of
the
housing
element?
X
So
the
first
one
is
the
pro
housing
designation
program.
So
in
response
to
the
housing
crisis,
the
legislator
required
hcd
to
create
incentives
for
jurisdictions
that
are
compliant
with
housing
element
requirements
and
have
enacted
local
pro-housing
policies
to
accelerate
housing
production
and
to
further
the
state's
housing
goals.
X
The
program
highlighted
here,
the
pro
housing
designation
program
is
open
to
all
jurisdictions
and
applications
are
accepted
on
a
rolling
basis.
Cities
who
achieve
this
designation
are
awarded
with
points
and
preferences,
so
that
would
help
with
future
state
funding
applications
based
on
the
existing
policies.
Mountain
view
is
likely
to
qualify
for
the
designation
and
then.
The
second
item
is
addressing
housing
densities
of
parcels
that
currently
have
more
residential
units
than
allowed
by
the
zoning,
ordinance
or
general
plan
on
the
top
of
the
slide.
That's
the
language
that
we
have
from
the
council
strategic
roadmap.
X
X
X
And
then
just
next
steps
after
we
get
council
input
on
tonight's
study
session,
the
following
will
be
the
next
steps
we
have
epc
and
council
study
sessions
tentatively
scheduled
for
may
and
june
later
this
year.
This
is
to
review
the
draft
housing
element
which
would
include
the
final
sites
inventory,
the
final
policies
and
programs
and
all
other
aspects
of
the
document.
X
We
also
want
to
let
the
council
know
that
the
secret
process
is
ongoing
and
the
public
draft
of
the
eir
is
expected
to
be
out
for
review
in
in
the
summer,
and
then
you
know
after
the
90
day
review
from
hcd.
We
will
get
comments
from
them,
we'll
make
revisions
and
we
plan
to
bring
it
back
to
council
for
final
adoption
by
the
end
of
the
year
and
then
after
adoption
we'll
submit
it
to
hdd
again,
they
will
do
a
60-day
review.
X
In
that
time
we
will
get
revisions
from
hcd,
and
you
know
we
have
time
until
may
2023
to
incorporate
some
of
those
revisions
for
the
official
final
housing
element,
and
I
just
want
to
specify
and
highlight
that
the
final
adoption
is
in
december
and
the
deadline
to
submit
that
adoption
is
january.
31St
of
2023.
X
A
A
Z
Much
like
a
couple
of
other
cities,
I
think
davis
and
I
believe,
beverly
hills.
You
it'll
be
possible
to
build
a
skyscraper
anywhere
anywhere
in
town
with
with
only
I
think,
ministerial
approval,
so
yeah
it's
important
if
we
want
to
maintain
local
control
to
take
seriously
the
question
of
whether
the
parcels
we're
pointing
to
will
actually
be
developed.
AA
Good
evening,
james
guzman
and
I
just
wanted
to
briefly
comment
on
anyone's
favorite
topic,
which
is
parking,
as
I'm
sure,
is
the
case,
and
just
say
that
I
would,
as
one
of
each
of
these
pro
housing
criteria
for
getting
the
bureau
housing
designation.
That
we
are
trying
to
achieve
is
to
reduce
parking
minimums.
AA
Maximums
are
very
well
established
as
reducing
car
ownership,
saving
money
for
renters
and
in
the
process
achieving
many
of
our
various
city
goals
for
reducing
traffic,
reducing
greenhouse
gas
emissions,
reducing
the
lives
lost
on
our
streets
due
to
traffic
violence,
and
I
hope
that
we
can
improve
the
character
of
our
neighborhoods
by
having
less
parking
and
all
the
new
housing
we're
going
to
build
over
the
next
decade.
Thank
you.
AB
Good
evening
council,
my
name
is
ilya
guerin,
I'm
a
12-year
mountain
view
resident
and
a
member
of
mountain
view.
Yinbi
the
housing
element
is
a
legal
obligation,
but
it's
also
a
matter
of
fairness.
Mountain
view
has
two
and
a
half
jobs
per
home,
one
of
the
worst
imbalances
in
santa
clara
county.
Consequently,
we've
been
asked:
we've
been
tasked
to
plan
for
11
135
units.
Many
of
our
residents
have
hinged
their
hopes
on
the
ongoing
development
plans
for
north
bayshore
and
east
wissman.
AB
However,
these
plans
will
take
decades
to
carry
out,
so
we
can't
rely
on
them
completely.
Staff
have
identified
many
additional
opportunity
sites,
but
we
have
concerns
about
these
sites.
First
of
all,
they're
overwhelmingly
shopping
centers
in
el
camino
and
san
antonio
areas,
and
if
they
were
all
to
be
redeveloped
at
once
during
the
sixth
arena
cycle,
we
would
lose
a
large
amount
of
our
retail
and
commercial
space
during
construction.
Furthermore,
it
is
not
clear
that
many
of
these
sites
can
actually
be
redeveloped
due
to
possibly
unwilling
owners
or
complicated
leasing
and
ownership
structures,
etc,
etc.
AC
Okay,
honorable
mayor
ramirez,
vice
mayor
hicks
and
council
members,
I'm
speaking
on
behalf
of
the
steering
committee
of
livable
mountain
view,
we've
already
sent
you
a
letter.
So
I'll
just
remind
you
the
main
points.
We
support
the
staff
recommendation
on
the
arena
sites.
We
do
not
recommend
additional
rezoning
at
this
time.
AC
Rezoning
should
be
done
in
the
context
of
establishing
new
precise
plans,
because
rezoning
for
precise
plans
allows
for
the
best
and
most
comprehensive
public
outreach,
including
village
centers
in
the
arena
sites
is
appropriate,
but
this
should
not
lead
to
a
loss
of
much-needed
functional
retail
in
restaurants.
They
support
our
sense
of
community
and
reduce
vehicle
miles
traveled
supporting
our
city's
sustainability
goals.
D
Good
evening,
council
members,
my
name
is
kalisha
webster
and
I
am
the
housing
advocate
for
people
with
development
developmental
other
disabilities
at
housing
choices
as
part
of
the
housing
element
update
process.
Mountain
view
is
required
to
assess
and
plan
for
the
housing
needs
of
certain
special
needs
populations,
including
people
with
developmental
disabilities.
D
We
appreciate
all
the
work
from
staff
that
went
into
developing
draft
policies
and
programs
that
are
before
you
tonight.
We
also
recognize
that
the
city
has
shown
a
willingness
to
help
house
extremely
vulnerable
members
of
the
mountain
view,
community,
such
as
at
luna,
vista
and
san
antonio
place,
where
a
number
of
units
are
set
aside
for
people
with
developmental
disabilities
who
require
coordinated
supportive
services
from
the
regional
center
in
order
to
maintain
their
housing.
We
asked
the
city
commits
continuing
to
find
ways
to
meet
the
housing
needs
of
this
high-risk
population
in
the
housing
element.
D
Some
of
the
general
policies
you
can
implement
are
awarding
competitive
advantage
for
city
land
and
financing
the
project
proposals
which
include
people
developmental
disabilities,
reduced
parking
for
transit,
oriented
projects
which
include
people
developmental
disabilities,
as
they
are
often
transit,
dependent
and
local
concessions,
or
incentives
beyond
what
allowed
under
the
state
density
bonus
law
if
they
include
extremely
low
income
units.
Thank
you.
S
Greetings
all
to
mackenzie.
He

housing.
It's
great!
I
love
love
the
idea,
I'll
just
point
out
one
piece
of
data
that
was
that
kind
of
stood
out
to
me
for
the
pipeline
projects.
There
is
disproportionately
towards
above
moderate
income
and
for
the
planned
projects.
AE
Okay,
hello,
mayor
ramirez
and
council
members,
my
name
is
marilyn
smith
and,
on
behalf
of
silicon
valley,
leadership
group,
which
represents
over
350
tech
and
innovation
economy,
employers
in
the
bay
area.
I
want
to
thank
city
staff
for
their
report
on
the
housing
element,
update
and
share
some
comments
with
the
current
draft
inventory.
There
is
under
counting
of
the
potential
sites
for
housing
and
mixed
use.
AE
Conversions,
as
well
as
an
over
concentration
of
development
focus
on
areas
that
have
long
exist,
have
existing
long-term
use
despite
opportunities
for
densification
across
the
city,
which
appears
to
be
maintained
as
the
lowest
levels
of
density
in
the
plan
in
this
proposed
plan.
There's
a
lot
of
room
for
improvement
in
order
to
create
walkable,
sustainable
and
transit-friendly
communities
that
build
for
the
future.
There
needs
to
be
ambitious
planning
that
allows
for
development
throughout
the
city.
Mountain
view
is
an
extremely
desirable
location
for
employers.
AE
AF
Hi
everyone
thanks
for
taking
public
comment
today.
My
name
is
miriam
connor.
I
live
in
the
rex,
manor
neighborhood.
I
am
excited
about
the
statewide
initiatives
to
combat
the
housing
crisis
in
california,
but
there
are
a
few
places
where
I
think
mountain
view's
plan
falls
a
little
bit
short.
So,
first
of
all,
today
I
was
checking
out
the
interactive
map
on
mvhousingelement.org
and
you
can
see
that
of
the
planned
sites.
There's
only
one
little
green
box
in
any
of
the
neighborhoods
south
of
el
camino.
AF
So
then,
if
I,
you
know,
go
over
to
zillow
and
look
at
the
housing
prices,
I
can
also
see
that
those
are
the
neighborhoods
that
are
the
home
to
the
richest
residents,
and
this
doesn't
really
seem
like
an
equitable
or
fair
distribution.
To
me-
and
I
know
that's
something
that
the
state
looks
for
when
they're
approving
these
plans.
AF
Secondly,
I
think
we
should
use
this
opportunity
to
expand
our
safe
parking
programs
and,
finally,
I
this
doesn't
feel
like
a
real
change
from
the
status
quo,
so
we're
not
adding
a
whole
lot
of
housing
that
we
hadn't
already
necessarily
planned
to
build,
and
I
think
that
the
status
quo
isn't
working.
We
really
do
need
a
lot
more
housing,
so
we
should
use
this
as
an
opportunity
to
rethink
the
approach
and
add
a
lot
more
sites
to
the
inventory.
Thank
you.
AG
I'm
sorry,
I'm
not
a
techie
by
automatic
measure,
I'm
curious
if
the
thought
has
occurred
within
our
housing
groups,
for
the
consideration
of
what
has
occurred
in
the
pandemic
in
as
much
as
the
various
companies
that
are
within
the
city.
Limits
have
had
a
lot
of
their
staff
working
from
home
and
very
successfully.
AG
The
infrastructure
is
always
already
there,
the
the
sewage,
the
electricity,
the
streets
of
the
parking
and
everything
and
its
curiosity-
that
that
would
be
a
beneficial
thing
for
the
city
to
work
together
with
those
companies
and
cooperate
with
some
tax
benefits.
Perhaps
that
would
make
that
happen
for
the
benefit
of
the
community.
AH
Press
hi
there
sorry
I'm
having
some
technical
difficulties,
hi
hi.
This
is
tony,
I'm
a
resident
of
cuesta
park,
and
I
want
to
thank
the
staff
for
their
work
on
the
arena,
site
inventory
and
voice
my
support
for
the
selected
sites
and
because
mountain
view
already
has
the
highest
arena
allocation
per
capita
of
any
city
in
santa
clara.
I
do
not
support
rezoning
or
identifying
sites
in
addition
to
what
is
in
the
staff
report
and
applying
for
the
pro
housing
designation
is
a
great
idea.
AH
For
example,
one
of
the
policy
proposals
in
the
staff
member
was
to
reduce
the
minimum
parking
requirements
and
the
developer
impact
fees
and
seeing
that
the
minimum
parking
requirements
were
already
reduced
by
state
mandate
last
year
and
construction
appears
as
popular
as
ever
with
construction
happening
on
seemingly
every
block.
At
this
point,
the
timing
of
these
proposals
seems
somewhat
puzzling
to
me,
and
finally,
I
just
want
to
comment
on
the
online
feedback
form
for
the
housing
element.
AH
The
provided
answer.
Options
in
the
survey
are
heavily
leaning
toward
unrestrained
development,
and,
if
you
have
differing
views,
those
will
be
scattered
among
the
other
category
and
the
pre-selected
answer.
Options
are
just
swamping
everything
else,
essentially,
so
a
survey
designed
like
this
is
very
unlikely
to
result
in
an
accurate
representation
of
the
concerns
that
residents
really
have,
and
it
should
not
be
used
to
make
policy
decisions.
Thank
you.

AJ
Hi
good
evening
council,
my
name
is
kelsey
baines.
I
am
a
resident
of
rex,
manor
and
part
of
the
campaign
for
fair
housing
elements
which
is
working
to
enforce
this
whole
slate
of
new
housing
element,
laws
that
went
into
effect
and
they
strengthen
housing
element
requirements,
including
adding
a
new
requirement
to
affirmatively
furthering
fair
housing,
which
means
actively
undoing
patterns
of
segregation
in
our
community
and
in
our
region.
AJ
So
I
am
frankly
sort
of
alarmed
at
where
this
housing
element
is
right
now
because
it
appears
to
be
mostly
planning
for
business
as
usual.
There's
some,
maybe
we'll
we'll
get
to
looking
at
some
of
the
things
that
we've
already
said.
We're
probably
going
to
do
but
have
been
on
the
back
burner
and
keeping
those
in
the
back
pocket.
AJ
AJ
AK
AK
AK
This
housing
crisis
is
not
something
we
can
live
with,
and
continuing
the
status
quo
is
not
working.
What
were
those
comments
for
3
000
comments?
What
were
they
for?
If
the
city
is
just
going
to
say?
Oh,
I
guess
what
people
are
telling
us
is.
We
should
just
keep
doing
what
we're
doing
that
we're
on
the
right
track,
it's
hard
to
reply
to
the
site
inventory
methodology,
because
there
is
just
no
case
for
it.
There's
no
analysis
that
shows
this
is
sufficient
to
meet
our
housing
needs.
We
never
contacted
any
of
the
business
owners.
AK
We
didn't
analyze.
The
existing
uses,
we
didn't
look
at
development
trends,
our
targets
have
been
increased
by
almost
4x
and
we've
excluded,
r1,
r2
and
r3,
and
we
claim
we
can
get
to
our
housing
targets
because
miraculously
the
development
rate
on
el
camino
will
go
up
by
360
percent,
even
if
you
include
a
40
buffer.
AK
AL
Evening,
council,
my
name
is
kevin
ma
I've
been
in
mountain
view
for
seven
months
now
in
the
san
antonio
neighborhood.
Inherently
we
want
a
plan
that
works.
We
spent
city
funds,
city
and
power
on
the
plan,
so
we
should
probably
get
what
we
should
get
internally.
If
we
do
not
plan
correctly,
those
people
that
do
come
in
the
city
in
the
next
eight
years
are
going
to
come
here
in
a
way
that
we
do
not
plan
for
so
we
cannot
make
you
know
circulation
elements.
We
cannot
plan
transit
around
that.
AL
We
cannot
plan
improvements
in
the
city
around
that.
If
we
basically
ignoring
what's
happening
in
the
field,
there
will
be
more
office
development.
There
will
be
more
amenities
in
the
city,
and
that
brings
people
in
to
think
about
moving
into
mountain
view
as
a
place
to
live
if
to
work,
because
you
know
there
are
people
who
are
willing
to
drive
here
from
the
central
valley
for
the
pay
and
fundamentally
we
do
need
a
place
for
them
to
stay.
AL
Now
we
talk
about
development
pressure,
development
pressure
is
usually
placed
on
places
that
cannot
defend
themselves
because
everyone
else
has
hoas
that
really
advocate
for
them,
and
fundamentally
we
need
to
make
a
process
that
gets
the
entire
buy
on
the
city
rather
than
every
neighborhood
for
themselves.
I
do
hear
people
talk
about
the
arena
number
being
high,
that's
because
we,
as
the
city
did
not
do
so
well
in
the
past
decades,
and
we
need
to
catch
up.
Thank
you.
AM
AM
I
think
finding
that
we
have
14
000
future
units
that
will
meet
and
exceed
rena
requirements
is
fantastic
and
I
think
it's
not
really
business
as
usual.
I
I
strongly
object
to
that
and
I
think
it's
it's
a
fantastic
work
that
the
city
has
done
in
identifying
new
places
that
we
can
have
affordable
housing
and
and
meet
our
requirements.
AM
I
would
like
to
push
for
getting
affordable
housing
to
happen
in
that
cycle.
Perhaps
the
council
can
consider
the
mandate
or
consider
the
requirement
of
the
developers
to
designate
15
to
affordable.
Perhaps
that
can
be
a
mandate
or
find
other
ways
to
subsidize
that,
so
we
can
be
sure
that
we
will
be
meeting
our
affordable
housing
requirements.
AN
All
right,
so
I'm
daniel
hulse,
I'm
a
resident
in
the
san
antonio
area.
I
actually
did
have
a
thing
on
the
consent
calendar
for
fayette
park,
but
I'll
skip
that
and
go
into
my
comments.
So
my
take
here
is
the
general
approach
that
staff
took
of
minimizing
rezoning
is
against
the
intent
of
the
housing
element
process
and
we
need
to
have
all
options
on
the
table
specifically
because
they
are
complementary
to
each
other.
AN
AN
That's
going
to
be
such
a
choke
point
on
actually
getting
them
done,
and
so
this
is
a
supplementary
path
to
producing
house
in
the
city.
The
state
has
given
it
to
us
in
terms
of
passing
down
things
like
sb10.
Very
little.
Work
from
the
city
has
to
be
done
in
order
to
increase
the
capacity
in
this
way.
So
I
think
this
should
be
an
approach
that
council
should
direct
staff
to
look
at
as
as
a
rezoning.
AN
A
U
U
I
also
would
like
to
just
state
again
my
support
for
reducing
parking
requirements,
especially
to
help
preserve
our
mature
heritage
trees.
I
know
that's
something
that
we're
pushing
for
at
555
west
middle
field,
and
I
hope
that
can
become
something
that
happens
across
all
housing
development.
I
also
have
a
concern.
U
AD
Good
evening,
mayor
ramirez
and
council
members,
my
name
is
ryza
singh
and
I'm
a
seven
year,
employee
of
nasa
ames.
Over
the
past
seven
years,
I've
seen
some
of
the
smartest
inventors
I've
ever
worked
with
leave
the
area.
A
lot
of
them
were
working
mothers
which
to
me
was
surprising,
because
I
think
you
could
not
ask
for
a
better
work
life
balance
than
with
a
job
at
nasa,
but
still
they
left.
V
All
right,
so
the
piriformis
muscle
goes
from
the
sacrum
up
around
to
the
top
of
the
thigh
and
helps
you
to
rotate
your
thighs
outward
right,
but
see
it's
also
right
on
top
of
the
sciatic
nerve,
and
when
you
are
on
a
bulky
wallet
and
you're
sitting
there
and
it's
pressing
down
it,
can
you
can
get
something
called
piriformis
syndrome
which
is
like
sciatica?
It's
a
inflammation
of
the
static
nerve
caused
by
continuous
pressure.
What
I'm
saying
is:
don't
keep
things
in
your
back
pocket
just
take
them
out
empty,
it
use
them.
V
I
think
that
we
have
a
dearth
of
housing
and
you
know
as
much
development
as
there
is
going
on.
We
are
still
lacking
in
housing
and
we
should
be
embracing
that
doing
everything
we
can
not
holding
off
and
so
like
slow
rolling
it
and
just
doing
you
know
what
we
think
is
acceptable
and
then
accounting
for
maybe
maybe
it's
not
enough.
Maybe
someone
will
notice
it's
not
enough
and
call
us
on
it.
We
know
what
we
can
do
and
I
think
we
should
do
as
much
as
we
can.
V
I
would
also
like
to
thank
staff
for
focusing
on
preserving,
affordable
housing.
I
know
a
lot
of
people
who
have
been
kept
in
their
homes
thanks
to
the
csfra
and
a
lot
of
city
programs,
rent
relief
and
things
like
that
are
important,
and
that's
something
to
account
for
when
dealing
with
housing
development
is
not
just
building
new
homes,
but
also
making
sure
people
who
are
already
here
are
able
to
stay
here.
Thanks.
V
A
You
now
we
will
return
to
the
council.
Thank
you
to
the
members
of
the
public
who
spoke
so
here's
what
I'm
proposing
for
a
process
we'll
first
go
through
any
questions.
Members
of
the
council
have
and
then
we
will
take
each
question
in
turn,
we'll
I
will
collect
all
of
the
comments
I
hear
or
the
suggestions
and
ideas
and
then
at
the
conclusion
of
that
input.
We'll
do
a
straw
poll
on
each
recommendation
and
those
that
have
majority
support
will
will
be
provided
as
direction
to
staff,
but
first
we'll
start
with
any
questions.
M
M
AO
Vice
mayor
I'll,
take
that
question.
We
are
working
with
google
on
each
of
their
master
plans
to
look
at
expediting
the
delivery
of
the
bmr
sites,
especially
those
in
the
middle
field
park
area.
With
the
other
master
plan,
it
will
depend
on
how
they
it
they've
got
a
a
very
long
term
eight-phase
plan,
and
so
we
will
be
working
on
trying
to
get
sites
there
in
the
first
phase.
AO
AO
Vice
mayor
I'll
see,
if
eric
can
answer
any
of
these,
but
it's
my
understanding
that
you
you've
listed
a
whole
bunch.
We
may
not
have
all
the
answers
tonight.
We
could
certainly
send
them
on
to
you
it's
my
understanding
that
certain
facilities
do
count,
but
others
don't
so
I
don't
know
if
we
have
someone
who
can
answer
the
question
ellen
or
would
we
want
to
have
our
consultants
respond
to
that.
AP
F
F
Typically,
a
housing
to
count
a
housing
unit
has
to
have
its
own
kitchen
and
bathroom
facilities
and
they're
also
looking
for
permanent
structures.
So
you
know,
with
the
exception
say
of
an
efficiency
apartment.
You
know
I
think
that
was
mentioned.
Most
of
those
types
would
not
count
towards
the
arena.
R
AP
So
I
know
our
housing
manager,
michaela
mckayla,
helmet
tinkler,
is
in
the
audience
as
well
may
be
able
to
add
on.
We
did
do
a
a
quick
overview
of
the
different
of
the
checklists
to
see
what
we
already
qualify
for,
and
we
did
a
you
know,
a
quick
back
of
the
envelope,
some
of
those
things,
and
we
did
find
that
we
qualified
based
on
that
quick
overview.
R
So
would
that
come
back
to
us
if
we
they
required
us
to
make
a
change
in
any
any
of
our
existing
policies,
or
could
we
also
just
decide
not
to
pursue
that
designation
if
it's
not
to
our
advantage-
and
you
know
I'm
particularly
thinking
of
like
inclusionary
zoning
we're
at
15,
I
remember
seeing
state
legislation
saying
10,
so
you
know
I
thought
well
we're
actually
over
that.
So
I
wouldn't
want
us
to
go
backwards
on
any
of
this
or
impact
fees
like
transportation
impact
fees.
AO
R
Okay,
great
thank
you
and
then
sv9.
I
think
we're
going
to
be
talking
about
that
later,
but
I
I
at
the
city's
association,
we
had
a
presentation
that
showed
how
many
parcels
in
mountain
view
could
could
potentially
qualify,
and
I
think
it
was
like
another
1100
units
that
could
be
built
at
some
point.
When
do
we
well?
Have
we
heard
from
hcd
as
how
will
they
be
incorporating
sv9
into
this
process
or
or
not?.
AP
Yeah
I'll
start,
but
then
I'll,
I
think
also
matt
and
bev,
may
be
able
to
jump
in
you
know
I,
the
the
challenge
with
sb9
is
that
there's
no
record
no,
no
history
of
development
to
point
to
to
show
that
the
trends
can
be
moving
forward,
so
our
site's
inventory
is
based
on
characteristics
of
past
developments
that
we've
documented,
where
you
know
multi-tenant
shopping
centers
have
converted
into
residential
development
of
a
certain.
You
know
a
certain
age.
You
know
we
have
all
that
data.
We
don't
have
any
data
for
sb9.
AP
In
addition,
we
do
we
have
found
that
hcd
has
commented
on
requests
to
use
sb9,
basically
saying
that
you
need
to
identify
specific
sites.
You
can't
use
the
same
methodology
for
sb9
that
cities
are
using
for
adus,
where
it's
just
a
kind
of
general
we've
seen
about
20
over
the
last
couple
of
years,
so
we
can
project
20
more
forward
whatever
for
sb9,
you
need
to
find
sites
that
are
uniquely.
F
N
Yeah,
I
I
wanted
to
ask
about
moderate
income
housing.
It
seems
like
when
I
look
at
most
of
the
charts
for
rena.
I
see
three
separate
columns.
You
know
one
for
low
income,
one
for
moderate
and
one
for
above
moderate
and
we're
combining
low
and
moderate,
and
I
I
just
is
that
a
change
in
the
way
rena
is
being
evaluated
this
time
or
is
that
just
a
methodology
we
decided
to
adopt?
What's
what's
the
background
for
that.
AP
N
Okay,
because
I
I
understand
that
in
many
of
our
affordable
housing
or
when
we
talk
about
affordable
housing,
we
put
to
put
together
a
percentage
of
of
you
know
what
ami
would
be
covered.
Sometimes
we
we
put
100,
you
know
I
think,
we've
gone
up
to
as
high
as
120
and
that
that
would
be
considered
moderate.
But
that's
a
very
you
know,
that's
a
very
small
number
of
units
so
far,
and
I
just
wanted
to
to
confirm
that.
Essentially
that's
what
we're
talking
about
with
this
combination
here.
AP
AP
AR
AR
AP
F
In
housing
elements
extremely
low
income
units,
as
far
as
the
site's
inventory
is
concerned,
are
typically
treated
as
a
component
of
that
lower
income
housing
inventory.
So
there
there's
this
basic
threshold
that
most
housing
elements
are
are
dealing
with,
which
is
having
sites
that
are
zoned
at
at
least
at
those
default.
F
Minimum
densities
that
are
laid
out
in
state
law
for
lower
income,
housing
and
sites
that
are
eligible
for
for
that
designation
are
also
considered
to
be
potentially
suitable
for
extremely
low
or
very
low
income
housing,
as
well
so
they're,
typically
all
combined
together
and,
in
fact,
the
the
arena
itself.
The
numbers
for
low
income
incorporate
the
very
low
income
needs,
so
it's
all
blended
together.
There.
AO
AO
AO
Can
listen
as
a
local
goal
in
the
housing
element
or
in
our
housing
policies,
because
our
housing
division
is
working
on
a
number
of
strategies
to
provide
housing
for
a
variety
of
incomes.
So
there
are
many
other
ways
to
incentivize
because,
as
as
eric
mentioned,
that
the
housing
inventory
is
setting
the
table
so
to
speak,
actually
inviting
people
to
come
to
the
table,
providing
them
funding
to
be
able
to
build.
According
to
the
plan,
all
that
could
be
additional
goals
and
policies
that
could
live
outside
the
housing
element
or
within
the
housing
home.
AO
AO
AR
AO
AR
AO
That's
a
good
question.
I
know
that
historically,
we've
been
asked
in
many
cities
and
it's
always
hard
because
you
know
this
is
information.
That's
not
typically
shared
it
changes
very
often
and
it's
very
hard
to
keep
consistent.
So
I
don't
believe
we
have
that
information,
but
I
can
certainly
ask
and
see
if
there
ever
has
been
that
kind
of
information
available.
AO
I'll
try
to
answer
this
and
maybe
eric
can
take
over.
If
the
question
is,
we
have
hcd
guidance
on
preparing
housing
elements
in
the
sixth
cycle
so
that
we
have
and
we're
using
that
we're
also
using
our
experience
based
on
recent
state
law,
to
guide
how
we're
going
to
approach
the
future
housing
element
and
potential
revisions
to
our
code.
AO
But
there's
no.
We
really
don't
have
a
good
horizon
on
what's
going
to
happen
with
future
state
laws,
which
is
where
the
interpretation
issues
come
in,
we're
pretty
clear
on
hcd
guidance
at
this
point
and
we
have
a
two-part
strategy,
one
to
send
them
our
draft
housing
element
and
one
to
send
the
final
one.
So
we
have
a
a
two-part
check
to
make
sure
that
you
know
we're
interpreting
our
housing
element
correctly,
eric
anything
more
to
add.
AP
So
there's
two
possibilities
for
reusing:
one
is
just
simply
up
zoning,
so
if
you
do
upzone
a
site
that
you
can
reuse,
it
there's
another
process
that
the
state
has
identified,
which
is
to
allow
new
housing
development
by
right.
So,
like
a
ministerial
process
similar
to
sp
35
with
a
minimum
of
20
bmr,
we
could
implement
that
as
a
standard
pertaining
to
those
sites
and
those
are
the
two
paths
for
reusing
sites
that
I'm
aware
of
matt.
Are
there
any
other
paths
such
as
you
know
getting
more?
AP
O
AP
AP
AP
So
we
want
to
make
that
really
really
clear
to
all
property
owners
and
all
community
members
out
there.
That
being
said,
if
a
if
we
meet
with
the
property
owner-
and
they
have
some
piece
of
information
that
makes
it
that's
new
information
that
makes
it
a
a
constraint
on
development
as
as
hcd
would
interpret
it,
then
yes,
we
would
remove
them
from
the
site's
inventory.
AO
F
AO
I'll
just
add
one
more
piece
of
information
council
member,
our
intent
after
tonight,
when
we
finalize
the
list
of
sites
to
be
considered
and
reviewed,
is
to
is
to
send
a
notice
out
to
property
owners
so
that
they
are
all
aware
and
then
we
can
meet
with
them.
Anyone
who
expresses
a
concern
and
and
will
go
through
the
process
that
eric
mentioned.
O
AO
Yes,
so
the
housing
element
inventory
at
this
point
doesn't
include
many
rezonings,
because
the
city
has
proactively
already
rezoned.
So
if
somebody
says
they
want
to
rezone
their
site,
they
would
go
through
a
typical
gatekeeper
process.
If
that
site
is
identified
in
the
housing
element,
then
the
city
has
to
rezone
it
within
three
years.
So.
AO
A
A
Precise
plan
says
a
rezoning
is
necessary
to
access
the
additional
far
allowed
under
the
general
plan,
but
state
law
says
we
can
no
longer
require
a
rezoning.
So
if
a
developer
were
to
come
in
with
far
at
the
general
plan
level
for
the
village
center
overlay
sites,
then
they
would
be
able
to
proceed
with
with
that
development.
Is
that
right.
AO
A
AO
AO
A
Okay,
great
question
about
the
eir,
so
the
sites
we
include
as
part
of
our
back
pocket
will
be
studied
under
the
eir
which
allows
us
down
the
road
we
don't
have
to
rezone
those
sites
but
down
the
road.
We
could
then
tear
off
the
eir
and
streamline
a
rezoning
later
on.
That
is
that
a
fair
assessment.
AO
A
AO
A
AO
AO
A
A
So
that's
that's,
I
think
helpful
information.
We
haven't
really
talked
much
about
it,
but
we
also
have
to
submit
an
assessment
of
fair
housing.
Can
staff
provide
information
about?
When
does
the
council
see
that?
What
does
that
evaluate?
And
then
how
does
that
intersect?
With
that
housing
element?.
AP
F
F
Section
of
the
housing
needs
assessment,
so
there'll
be
a
lot
of
data
there
to
kind
of
set
the
background
for
that
existing
conditions,
historic
trends
and
and
so
forth,
and
then,
as
eric
mentioned,
we'll
need
to
identify
at
least
one
program
to
affirmatively,
further
fair
housing
and
in
reality
there
will
be
many.
I
think
that
that
do
do
that
within
the
housing
element,
and
then
we
also
need
to
have
this
assessment
of
the
housing
sites
inventory
specifically
and
through
the
lens
of
affirmatively,
furthering
fair
housing.
A
A
M
It's
basically
looking
at
some
of
the
things
listed
in
the
back
pocket
back
pocket
list,
so
I'm
thinking
staff
could
evaluate
all
the
shopping
centers
for
redevelopment
as
mixed-use
complete
communities
with
you
know,
housing
of
course
also
neighborhood,
not
eliminating
the
neighborhood
serving
retail
that
we
have
and
other
things
you'd
need
in
a
complete
community
like
enhanced
sidewalks
bike
paths.
Green
space,
blossom
valley
is
mentioned
in
the
staff
report,
but
that
would
be
one
such
site,
but
I
would
evaluate
all
other
shopping
centers
as
well.
M
Priority
prioritizing
shopping
centers
that
are
largely
vacant,
like
the
moffat,
plaza
shopping
mall
and
you
know
so
that
we
make
sure
we
get
what
we
want
out
of
that
site,
that
it's
an
asset
to
the
community
and
also
those
that
allow
housing
in
our
general
plan
should
be
a
priority.
So
again,
we
can
develop
them
in
a
way
that
meets
our
specific
needs.
M
M
So
el
camino
has
a
lot
of
in
the
front
surface
parking
that
could
be
replaced
with
buildings
and
underground
parking
and
south
drive
has
lots
of
older
one-story
offices
with
surface
parking.
I
think
there's
the
potential
to
keep
the
medical
offices
there,
some
critical
offices,
while
adding
housing,
maybe
senior
housing
and
undergrounding
the
parking.
M
When
I
talk
to
neighbors
of
that
area,
they
said
that
some
of
the
medical
offices
are
turning
over
as
health
providers
retire,
and
also
that
some
of
the
buildings
may
be
at
the
end
of
their
life
and
not
very
solidly
built.
So
I'd
like
us
to
to
evaluate
those
and
kind
of
get
ahead
of
the
game
I
would
like
to,
I
would
prefer
that
they
don't
redevelop.
M
AR
Thank
you
mir.
Well,
I
definitely
concur
with
really
taking
a
look
at
all
of
the
shopping
plazas
that
that
are
out
there.
I
mean
some,
it's
obvious
that
you
know
a
very
precursory
look
at
them
would
indicate
that
they're
newly
built
or
whatever,
but
I'd
like
to
cast
a
wide
net
there,
and
this
is
all
to
the
idea
of
moving
more
sites
from
the
back
pocket
into
the
what
we
would
be
actively
putting
forward.
AR
AR
O
Thanks,
I
actually
appreciate
staff's
approach
to
the
inventory
of
sites,
and
you
know
our
arena
is
really
high,
and
yet
we
can
accommodate
it
with
all
of
the
property
that
you
know.
We've
recently
rezoned,
via
all
the
precise
plans
we've
done,
and
so
it's
nice
to
see.
I
feel
like
we're
at
where
we
have
been
proactive
in
sort
of
planning
for
a
number
that
we
didn't
know
we
were
going
to
get
and
we
can
still
accommodate
it
and
what
I
appreciate
a
lot
about
that
is.
O
O
This
is
a
time
when
I
feel
like.
I
could
really
use
that,
and
I
know
that's
a
hard
ask,
but
I
feel
good
about
the
approach
that
staff
has
taken
and
I
don't
necessarily
mind
looking
at
some
of
those
other
parcels,
but
for
the
back
pocket
not
for
the
site
inventory
and
the
back
pocket
is
question
two.
So
I'm
good
with
what
staff
put
together
thanks.
O
P
Great
thank
you,
so
I
I
just
want
to
thank
staff.
I
know
there's
been
quite
a
bit
of
comment,
but
I
know
our
staff
is
working
on
so
many
different
projects
all
at
the
same
time
and
so
and
having
to
do
the
housing
element
on
top
of
everything
else.
I
just
want
to
express
my
gratitude
and
thanks
so
for
question
number
one.
I
do
support
the
proposed
draft
sites.
P
So
I
think
that
that
would
be
helpful
in
terms
of
you
know
whether
it's
outreach
to
you
know
religious
organizations
or
those
who
have
small.
You
know
own
sites
and
maybe
some
of
our
industrial
areas
that
might
be
small
businesses.
How
do
we
work
with
our
face-based
communities
and
small
and
business
community
on
those
parcels,
and
maybe
it
can
be?
I
think
there
was
some
discussion
about.
You
know
mixed
use
right
so
perhaps
retaining
their
retail,
while
also
building
housing
on
top
retaining
their
faith-based
operation,
while
also
providing
housing.
P
I
know
that
conversation
will
be
invited
later,
but
how
do
we
maybe
kind
of
integrate
into
the
processes,
because
I
know
that
sometimes
people
are
not
are
not
as
well
versed
in
how
all
this
works.
So
I
just
I
just
wanted
to
add
that
in
as
a
comment
and
in
terms
of
the
draft
inventory
methodology,
I'd
also
propose
looking
at
our
parking
requirements.
I
think
we
consistently
talk
about
parking
as
a
city.
P
Our
model
parking
standard,
I
think-
was
last
done
a
decade
ago,
and
so
as
we're
looking
at
the
housing
element
and
talking
about
in
many
cases
up
zoning
or
densification.
Is
it
also
a
time
where
we
need
to
be
thinking
about
as
we're
looking
at?
You
know,
sustainability
goals
and
different
transit
solutions,
an
opportunity
for
us
to
revisit
part
parking
minimums
or
what
is
our
parking
standard
model
parking
standard?
I'd
also
ask
for
that.
P
R
Thank
you
mayor,
and
I
would
like
to
start
also
by
going
my
gratitude,
the
gratitude
of
us
to
staff
for,
and
our
consultant
for
your
hard
work
on
this.
This
is
quite
a
process,
and
this
is
my
third
one
that
I've
seen
in
some
form,
and
it's
just
it's.
You
know
it
takes
a
lot
of
effort
and
time
and
on
top
of
everything
else,
that
our
department
is
doing,
including
trying
to
actually
get
housing
projects
through
and
approved
and
built.
R
I
very
much
trust
what
staff
has
come
to
come
forward
with,
so
I
am
very
comfortable
with
what
staff
is
proposing
and
I
you
know
I
hear
the
comments
about
well,
we
should
put
out
more
sites,
and
my
question
frankly
is
why-
and
I
guess
you
know
what
what
I've?
Maybe
what
I've
realized
in
having
conversations
with
folks
is
that
there
might
be
some
mis
misunderstanding
or
misperceptions
of
what
the
housing
element
is.
R
I
actually
worry
that
it's
going
to
make
it
worse.
If
you
know
they
start
to
say,
oh,
your
fees
are
too
high.
Your
inclusionary
zoning
is
too
high.
You
know
make
it
easier
for
frankly,
the
market
rate
housing
to
be
built
because
that's
what
gets
built
so
I'm
comfortable
with
this.
I
think
the
fifth
I
think
it
was
a
52
buffer
is
quite
adequate.
I
believe
you
know
I
don't
and
again
I
don't
look
at
this
as
the
tool
to
drive
housing
production.
R
That's
really
what
the
general
plan
is
and
the
general
plan
update
that
we've
done
and
you
know
I've
heard
comments
about
status
quo.
Well,
you
know
I
look
at
it
as
frankly,
we
were
ahead
of
the
ball.
We
were
ahead
of
the
game
on
this.
We
did
our
general
plan
update
10
years
ago.
It's
been
10
years.
R
I
think
yes-
and
you
know
I
do
see,
and
I
will
say
I
do
see
other
cities
doing
that
now
to
comply
with
the
new
housing,
the
arena
numbers
and
whatnot,
but
we
actually
did
it
before.
So
I
think
it's
actually
okay
to
have
some
status
quo,
but
you
know
we
also
have
the
back
pocket
items
and
I
think
that's
showing
that
we're
continuing
to
you
know,
move
forward
and
try
to
continue
to
find
more
ways
to
you
know
allow
for
more
housing,
but
you
know.
R
I
also
want
to
remind
folks
that
you
know
after
cycle
six
there's
a
cycle
seven
and
then
this
doesn't
end.
So
you
know,
I
guess
I
just
don't
really
see
the
benefit
of
putting
everything
out
there.
You
know
right
now,
because
I
don't
know-
and-
and
you
know,
the
housing
element
has
changed
and
I
think
that's
part
of
it
too,
is
that
I
don't
know
right
frankly
yeah
how
we're
gonna
come
out.
I
think
we're
gonna
come
out.
R
Okay,
like
I
thought
we
were
fine
when
we
had
rezoned
for
15
000
units
and
now
to
be
told
well,
some
of
those
you
know
parcels
might
not
count.
It's
really
kind
of
surprising
and
frustrating
to
me,
and
so
I
actually
wanted
to
see
how
this
this
cycle
plays
out
before
you
know
putting
anything
more
out
there.
I
think
there's
some
issues
and
you
know
there's
always
issues
with
this
whole
process.
I
think
we
need
to
continue
to
work
on
on.
R
You
know
some
changes,
I'm
not
happy
that
you
know
we
had
two
cities:
neighboring
us
palo,
alto
and
cupertino
get
a
reduction
in
their
numbers
based
on
parcels
that
they
thought
they
could
get
and
be
get
more
office
or
business
on
and-
and
we
have
you
know
similar
issues,
but
we
didn't
get
a
reduction.
So
there's
just
a
lot
of
flaws
to
this
process
and
it's
not
perfect
in
any
way.
R
So
that's
why
I
guess
I
really
don't
look
at
it
as
just
you
know
our
requirement
and
it's
really
the
general
plan,
and,
and
frankly
you
know,
I
I've
mentioned
it.
It's
been
10
years
in
the
next.
You
know
few
years
we
may
have
to
look
at
revising
the
general
plan
again
and
that's
really
what
we
should
be
doing
where
we
should
be
doing
these.
R
You
know
creating
these
these,
these
other
tools
to
to
enable
more
housing,
because,
as
councilmember
matacek
mentioned,
that's
also
where
we
get
the
community
input
and
buy-in,
which
has
been
so
valuable
to
our
success
in
allowing
housing.
So
I'm
comfortable
with
what
staff
has
presented,
as
is
thank
you.
A
Thank
you
very
much.
Any
other
council
input.
I
have
a
quick
question
for
staff.
My
apology
is
forgetting
before
forgetting
to
ask
this:
if
a
site
is
not
if
a
property
develops
with
housing
that
is
not
in
the
site
inventory,
that's
good
for
us
because
it
still
counts
toward
the
arena
requirement.
We
get
credit
for
that
right.
A
Okay,
that's
helpful!
Thank
you
because
I
I
agree
very
strongly
with
with
something
that
you
said:
councilman,
robbie
cogan
and
that's.
We
have
to
be
mindful
about
the
seventh
cycle
as
well,
and
we
want
to
be
careful
not
to
put
ourselves
in
a
disadvantage
by
prematurely
identifying
sites
that
may
not
develop
the
cycle,
but
instead
you
know
keep
keep
them,
especially
if
they
have
a
likelihood
of
developing
at
a
later
date,
council
member
showalter
really
quickly,
and
then
I'm
going
to
give
some
comments.
Z
N
Just
going
to
say
quickly
that
I
I
I
come,
I
appreciate
what
council
member
abby
coca
said,
but
the
reason
I'm
interested
in
looking
at
some
of
these
other
sites
as
well
is
because
I
think,
as
staff
goes
through
this
next
step
of
the
process,
and
they
start
talking
to
owners,
and
I
also
think
the
collaborative
attitude
is
a
really
great
framework
for
doing
it.
Thank
you,
council,
member
for
commae
for
bringing
that
up.
A
And
I
think
that's
something
that
we
should
walk
into
your
eyes
wide
open.
I
think
there's
a
non-trivial
chance
that,
after
a
round
of
input
from
hcd,
we
may
come
back
with
a
very
different
site
inventory
because
some
of
these
sites
don't
pass
muster
or
because
we're
not
sufficiently
complying
with
a
number
of
the
requirements.
A
So
I
do
think
there's
some
something
of
a
conflicting
issue.
We're
gonna
have
to
contend
with.
One
is
finding
sites
that
affirmatively
further
fair
housing,
but
we
also
don't
want
to
put
in
place
sites
that
have
no
chance
of
redeveloping
this
cycle,
because
then
it
makes
it
harder
for
us
to
include
them
in
subsequent
cycles,
and
I
I
don't
envy
staff
for
having
to
balance
those
two
concerns
so
high
level.
A
So
I
I
do
think
prioritizing
those,
and
that
has
the
advantage
too,
of
opening
some
opportunities
south
of
el
camino,
which
I
think
do
help
us
meet
our
affirmatively
further
and
fair
housing
goal.
So
I
think
that's
that's.
Actually
a
prudent
thing
to
do,
and
I
I
also
very
strongly
support
council
member
commae's
recommendation
to
work
proactively
with
property
owners.
A
Maybe
we'll
be
surprised
and
we'll
uncover
some
sites
that
we
didn't
think
were
were
viable,
and
we
might
also
discover
that
some
sites
that
we
were
optimistic
about
are
going
to
be
deemed
inappropriate
by
hcd.
So
I
I'm
I'm
hopeful
that
we
can
support
that
recommendation
as
well.
I
did
have
a
couple
of
clarifying
questions
for
the
recommendations,
so
council
vice
mayor
hicks
for
south
drive.
Did
you
are
you
recommending
that,
as
in
the
site
inventory
or
as
a
back
pocket
area.
M
D
A
That's
helpful,
thank
you
and
then
question
for
staff.
I
was
thinking
about
asking
this
in
the
policy
topic
section,
but
I
think
it's
probably
helpful
to
understand
this
now.
Could
we
create
something
like
an
affordable
housing,
overlay
or
churches
or
for
government-owned
properties
to
help
us
guarantee
that
we're
likely
to
get
affordable
housing
on
those
sites?
The
the
analogy
that
comes
to
mind
is
the
public
quasi-public
designation
in
san
jose,
which
only
allows
permanent
supportive
housing.
No
other
type
of
housing
is
allowed
on
pqp
sites
only
permanent
supportive.
AO
How
can
we
create
an
affordable
housing
overlay?
What
what
is
the
base
units?
What
would
this
affordable
housing
overlay
do
because,
as
you
know,
you
have
to
acknowledge
this
in
the
general
plan.
If
the
general
plan
allows
it,
you
can't
create
an
overlay
process
to
require
rezoning
to
that.
So
we
just
need
to
work
out
the
mechanics
of
what
the
council
intends
to
do
and
we
can
come
back
with
with
some
suggestions.
A
That's
one
two,
three
four,
so
for
so
that's
that
will
be
advanced
as
part
of
the
direction
four
to
three
and
the
next
one
was
to
have
staff
evaluate
the
south
drive
areas
and
medical
offices
adjacent
to
I'll.
Do
this
one
and
then
I'll
go
to
you,
council,
member
official,
so
the
south
drive
area
adjacent
to
el
camino
hospital
and
I
don't
think,
there's
a
strong
recommendation
for
site
inventory
or
back
pocket,
but
it
would
simply
be
to
have
staff
evaluate
that
area.
A
R
Thank
you
mayor.
I
just
I
wanted
to
ask
staff
like
you
know,
there's
a
time
limit,
we
have
a
deadline,
and
my
concern
is
just
time
and
in
light
of
our
staffing
challenges
right
now
like.
Is
it
really
realistic
to
have
you
look
at
every
shopping
center
and
south
drive?
You
know
I.
I
want
us
to
be
realistic
and
not
put
undue
burden
on
our
staff.
R
If,
if
what
we
have
right
now,
is
you
know,
frankly,
more
than
adequate
with
the
large
buffer,
so
I
I
support
those
being
on
the
back
pocket.
That's
why
part
of
the
reason
why
I
support
it
as
a
back
pocket
item,
because
you
know
we
do
have
to
get
this
in
right
by
the
end
of
this
year.
I
believe,
if
not
soon,
I
can't
remember
the
deadline,
but
I
just
want
to
be.
You
know,
mindful
that
we
know
what
our
staffing
challenges
are.
So
yeah,
let's
be
realistic.
I
guess
is
what
I
know.
AO
Once
we
get
the
list
of
sites,
we
are
going
to
review
them
for
hcd
criteria,
so
some
of
these
sites
may
pass
muster
some
of
these
won't
depending
on
what's
on
them.
We're
also
going
to
probably
connect
with
property
owners
to
see
if
there's
interest
so
there'll
be
some
very
quick,
high
level
review,
and
you
know
if,
if
staff
feels
that
it's
not
going
to
meet
hcd
criteria,
we're
not
going
to
recommend
moving
forward
with
them.
R
AS
A
A
Is
it
helpful
for
staff
to
have
some
sense
of
what
viable
alternatives
the
council
would
support
now
or
when
we
come
back
in
the
final
study
session
after
hcd
has
said
you
have
to
come
back
with
substantial
modifications.
Would
you
still
have
time
then
to
receive
input
on
locations
for
rezoning
or
any
other
consideration.
A
A
AP
P
So
I
guess
I
you
know
I
I
didn't
raise
my
hand
because
I
don't
necessarily
know
what
non-historic
means
are
we
using
like
the
state
designation
for
historic?
I
I
don't
know
I
I
feel
like.
I
have
a
lot
of
questions
on
that
one,
but
I
you
know
I
mean
I'm
open
to
it.
You
know
I
made
the
comment
about
collaborating
with
them.
I
just
wasn't
sure.
A
AO
Well,
we
have
a
list
of
historic
sites.
We
haven't
yet
embarked
on
a
a
new
citywide
review,
as
you
know,
we'll
be
doing
with
our
new
historic
ordinance
update.
But
at
least
we
can
use
our
current
inventory
to
make
sure
we're
not
including
sites
that
are
on
our
current
list,
and
we
will
certainly
be
meeting
or
at
least
sending
letters
out
to
property
owners
and
connecting
with
them
to
see
if
they're
interested
so
they'll
be
sort
of
a
two-part
review.
P
No,
that's
that's
helpful.
I
mean
it
got
the
majority,
so
we'll
hear
it
and
it'll
come
back.
I
just
had
that's.
I
just
wanted
to
explain
why
I
didn't
vote
for
I
have
all
these
other
questions
and
I'm
happy
to
follow
up
with
staff
on
it
later.
I
just
felt
like
I
wasn't
sure
if
it
was
too
in
the
weeds
to
ask,
but
that's
where
my
head
was
thanks.
R
Thank
you.
So
I
had
a
question
about
the
churches.
I
had
asked
this
and
I
can't
remember
the
answer,
but
you
know
the
buddhist
temple
redeveloped
their
back
lot
to
75
units
of
apartments,
and
I
remember
I
don't
think
that
required
a
rezoning.
It
never
came
to
council,
I
believe
so.
I
guess
I
had
this
assumption
that
churches
are
able
to
develop
if
they
want
to.
Is
that
not
correct.
AP
Most
of
the
church
sites
in
the
city
are
zoned
residential.
Already,
it's
really
a
question
of
whether
council
wants
to
allow
higher
densities
than
what's
currently
allowed.
So,
for
example,
there
are
many
churches
south
of
el
camino
that
are
zoned
r1,
so
does
council
want
to
direct
staff
to
to
for
those
sites
or
for
churches
specifically
allow
multi-family
housing.
R
R
AO
R
R
AO
It
would
take
a
little
more
time,
but
you
know
we'll
do
the
assessment.
You
know
there's
very
few
sites.
It's
entirely
likely.
It
could
be
incorporated
again
if
they're
back
pocket
sites,
they
don't
have
to
be
revised
right
now
they
could
be
revised
later.
So
there's
some
flexibility
and
we'll
we'll
probably
kind
of
do
a
review
and
and
make
sure
we're,
including
sites
that
are,
are
going
to
be
successful
in
the
long
run
with
hcd
all
right.
Thank
you.
AS
A
AO
I
think
a
few
more
parameters.
What
we
heard
was
again
is
it
city
lots?
Is
it
is
it
you
know
federally
owned
lots.
Those
can
be
higher
lifts.
I
think
you
know
it's
very
hard
to
get
an
answer
from
that
property
owner.
If
that's
what
we're
looking
for
in
the
timeline,
so
a
little
more
direction
would
help,
but
we
can
certainly
do
a
quick
sweep
and
and
give
the
council
an
assessment
of
how
successful
it's
going
to
be.
AR
R
If
I'd
like
a
little
more
clarification
of
what
these
government
properties
are,
are
you
talking
about
even
like
city
hall
and
the
library,
or
are
you
talking
about
the
parking
lots
I
think
yeah?
It
would
be
helpful
to
have
more
clarity
on
what
is
everything
on
the
table
yeah
and
like
if
you
can
clarify
that
would
be
helpful.
A
I
do
think
it's
important
to
provide
explicit
direction
to
staff
on
council
member
commae's
recommendation
to
have
a
collaborative
process,
and
so
that
would
I
don't
want
to
speak
for
you,
but,
as
I
understand
it,
that
would
be.
Staff
would
proactively
reach
out
to
these
property
owners
and
have
a
dialogue.
Is
this
something?
A
P
Yeah
sorry
about
that,
I
had
a
late.
I
had
a
late
hand
for
that
last
one,
I'm
comfortable
with
that.
So
sorry
about
that,
I
think
you
missed
me
and
then
for
this
one.
You
know.
I
know
that
the
city
had
already
had
some
initial
conversations
with
faith-based
organizations
when
we
were
trying
to
pursue
the
safe
parking
program.
A
Okay,
thank
you.
Let's
go
ahead
and
take
a
vote
on
that,
so
that
would
be
to
make
this
a
collaborative
process
and
have
staff
do
proactive
outreach
not
just
rely
on
the
postcard
noticing
and
then
getting
the
interest
of
the
property
owners
in
the
housing
development.
Is
there
support
for
that
approach?
P
A
Yeah,
I
think
it's
helpful
also
because
if
a
property
owner
sends
a
letter
to
hcd
saying
I
have
no
interest
in
this,
then
that
makes
it
a
lot
harder
for
us
to
credibly
include
the
site
in
the
in
the
inventory.
So
I
think
applying
it
to
all
all
properties
is
helpful.
So
sorry,
one
more
time
raise
your
hand
if
you're
supportive
of
that
approach,
that's
one
two
three,
four,
five,
six,
seven
so
that
one's
unanimous.
A
And
then
I'm
not
going
to
go
through
all
of
these,
because
I
think
that
that
direction
actually
probably
will
will
result
in
a
similar
outcome.
I
did
want
to
see
if
there
was
council
support
for
excluding
the
target
property
on
showers,
based
on
the
letter
we've
already
received
from
the
property
owner.
A
A
Okay?
So
we'll
now
proceed
to
question
two?
I
don't
know
if
there's
that
much
more
discussion
that
we
need
to
have,
I
think
that
probably
was
sufficient
from
question
one,
but
any
council
questions
or
comments
about
question
two
which
is:
does
the
city
council
support
the
inclusion
of
any
of
the
proposed
back
pocket
rezoning
areas
in
case
the
site's
inventory
is
reduced
council
member
medicaid.
O
Yeah
I
sort
of
have
concerns
about
including
the
moffett
area
and
because
we
have
talked
about
potentially
doing
a
precise
plan
I
feel
like
including
it
might
set
the
wrong,
send
the
wrong
message
or
set
the
wrong
expectation
about
that
area,
and
so,
while
I
believe
that
it
might
provide
some
capacity
for
housing,
I
don't
feel
like.
I
am
comfortable
with
what
that
capacity
is,
without
first
doing
the
discussion
about
the
precise
plan
for
that
area.
So
actually
I
I'd
prefer
to
leave
that
one
out
for
now.
O
N
N
It
is
categorically
exempt
from
sequa
in
many
cases
anyway,
but
not
for
this.
We
have
it.
You
know
it
would
have
to
be
included
for
the
housing
element.
That's
that's
part
of
the
process
here,
so
I
think
it's.
It
was
a
very
wise
methodology,
choice
for
for
staff
to
propose-
and
I
I
really
do
I
I
I
really
am
very
supportive
of
it.
AR
Thank
you
mayor.
Yes,
I'd
really
like
to
take
a
straw
poll
on
all
of
the
sites
that
have
been
included
in
the
back
pocket
as
possibilities,
because
this
is
a
first
pass
for
staff
and
I
think,
to
reduce
the
impact
on
staff.
We
need
to
just
include
everything,
that's
a
potential
and
then
it's
obvious
that
things
are
going
to
fall
out
through
this
collaborative
process
and
et
cetera.
But
I
I
would
rather
not
hamstring
staff
by.
R
Thank
you
mayor,
so
I
guess
I'm
trying
to
understand
why
moffitt
is
included,
even
though
we
are
talking
about
a
precise
plan
there,
and
but
yet
you
know,
west
cerebella
isn't
because
we're
talking
about
a
precise
plan
there.
So
I
feel
like
it's
either
we
don't.
We
don't
do
either
of
them
because
we
want.
We
want
to
do
the
precise
plan
first
and
frankly,
that's
okay
with
me,
because
maybe
we
put
it
in
cycle
seven
then,
and
I
actually
had
some
question
about
the
100
unit
number
for
moffitt.
R
AO
I
did
want
to
answer
the
question
about
why
we
included
moffitt
and
why
not
west
herabella
moffett
is
actually
included
as
a
change
area
in
our
general
plan
and
is
recognized
and
a
precise
plan
would
then
derive
from
the
changes
anticipated
there.
West
west
arabella
is
not,
and
so
it
would
have.
You
know
our
preference
is
that
we
go
through
a
process
to
identify
it
as
a
change
area
and
we
can
create
a
precise
plan
around
it.
You
know,
following
the
orderly
process
we've
used
in
in
our
entire
history
of
land
use,
so.
R
I
appreciate
that
I,
I
guess
you
know,
there's
been
some
changes
to
the
moffett
area.
In
terms
of,
I
think
what
we're
looking
at
is
the
moffett
area
too.
So
I
I
guess,
given
that
I,
I
think,
there's
a
lot
more
discussion
that
needs
to
be
had
for
the
moffett
area,
so
I
would
actually
still
think
we
should
probably
just
take
that
off
for
now
and
save
it
for
the
next
round.
AR
A
Any
other
questions
or
thoughts,
I
guess,
is
a
as
a
a
quick
thought.
The
general
plan
already
allows
housing
in
the
moppet
corridor,
I'm
looking
even
the
shopping
centers
and
including
the
shopping
center
that
doesn't
allow
residential
with
its
zoning
districts.
The
commercial
neighborhood
shopping
center
next
to
the
mobile
home
park.
That's
still
under
the
general
plan
allows
housing,
and
so-
and
I
I
think
I
I
don't
want
to
step
into
me
with
toes,
but
my
guess
is
that
we've
all
heard
from
developers
interested
in
looking
at
that
site.
A
So
it
is,
I
think,
plausible,
that
it
could
redevelop
within
the
next
eight
years
and
again
that
that's
an
area
where,
especially
for
the
shopping
center,
that
doesn't
have
a
zoning
that
allows
residential,
but
a
general
plan
designation
that
does
there
might
be
some
urgency
and
putting
in
place
some
development
standards
that
ensures
that
the
the
product
is
consistent
with
the
community's
vision
for
the
area.
But
we
can
we
can.
We
can
include
that
as
a
as
a
straw
motion,
any
other
recommendations.
A
A
A
A
A
A
So
because
I
didn't
do
a
good
job,
I'm
going
to
revisit
the
first
question
we
looked
at,
which
was
to
prioritize
general
plan
shopping
centers
with
a
general
plan
designation
that
allows
residential.
I
was
understanding
that
to
me
include
that
in
the
site
inventory,
but
I'm
not
sure
everyone
understood
it
that
way.
So
I
think
it's
important
to
clarify
for
shopping
centers
that
are
that
have
a
general
plan
designation
that
allows
residential
is
the
council
comfortable
with
including
that
in
the
site
inventory.
A
O
M
A
AD
A
AO
I
would
like
to
clarify
the
shopping
center
question
because
we
understood
the
first
vote
to
be
shopping.
Centers
that
allow
housing
in
the
general
plan
that
was
clarified
right
now
to
say
include
in
the
site
inventory,
but
is
council
also
asking
staff
to
look
at
all
shopping
centers,
including
those
that
don't
have
general
plan
designation
as
residential.
AO
H
H
AO
Yeah-
and
I
did
want
to
sort
of
had-
we
do
have
to
come
to
the
planning
commission
even
before
that,
so
some
of
this
work
has
to
be
done
ahead
of
time.
Our
strategy
was
to
send
out
letters
and
focus
on
the
ones
where
we
are
hearing
some
questions
or
objections,
mind
you.
These
sites
are
already
zoned
for
that
use.
So
it's
not
like.
We
are
rezoning
them.
Many
other
cities
are
contacting
property
owners
because
they're
changing
the
use
of
their
property.
AO
If
we
do
hear
back
from
property
owners
where
who
say
they're
not
interested,
we'll
certainly
bring
that
back
and
say
you
know
we
probably
shouldn't
be
including
those
so
we'll
we'll
kind
of
use,
a
strategically
use
our
staff
resources
to
get
the
best
bang.
For
the
time
we
have
taking
into
consideration
what
councils
have
asked
us
to
do.
A
They're
comfortable
with
that
feedback,
I
guess
the
the
only
additional
consideration
is.
This
is
all
in
the
context
of
hcd
compliant
sites
right.
So
if,
if,
for
instance,
there
is
you
know
a
church
site
that
doesn't
have
the
general
plan
designation
but
would
help
us
achieve
affirmatively
further
and
fair
housing
objectives,
maybe
that
site
merits
some
additional
attention
compared
to
a
church
site
that
doesn't
help
us
with
that
requirement.
A
Like
a
church,
you
know,
for
instance,
in
in
north
bay
shore
that
doesn't
have
a
residential
designation.
That's
probably
lower
priority
for
us,
so
that
I
think
that's
that's
helpful.
So
now
we'll
turn
to
question
three,
which
is:
does
the
city
council
support
the
initial
list
of
draft
housing
element,
goals
and
policies?
Are
there
other
policy
topics
that
should
be
included?
O
You
know
I
was
trying
to
figure
out.
Well,
how
do
we
define
needs?
I
think
different
people
are
going
to
have
different
perspectives
on
that.
So
I'd
like
more
clarity
around
how
we're
going
to
define
that,
let's
see
policy
one
under
goal
two
assist
well,
I
won't
read
it,
but
I
feel,
like
we
we've
said
we're
to
assist
with
this
and
I
thought
well.
We
haven't
really
defined
how
we're
going
to
assist
and
what,
if
there
are
funding
implications
that
we
can't
meet.
O
O
A
And
council
member
matashak,
I
don't
want
to
put
words
in
your
mouth,
but
I
think
you
and
I
tend
to
agree
on
on
one
component
of
your
first
remark
and
that's
at
the
end
of
the
planning
period.
We
should
all
be
on
the
same
page
about
whether
we've
succeeded
or
not
so
would
it
be
fair
to
say
as
a
recommendation
that
we
would
ask
staff
to
develop
some
tangible
metrics.
So
we
can
all
engage
at
the
conclusion
and
be
on
the
same
page
whether
we've
made
progress
or
not
on
on
each
goal.
O
AR
A
A
A
N
Thank
you,
I'm
I
I'm
fairly
happy
with
this
list.
I
think
staff
has
done
a
good
job
of
of
of
kind
of
replicating
the
the
goals
that
they've
heard
us
talking
about
for
the
last
well
really
many
years,
but
specifically
the
last
two
years
they're,
and
I
I
would
kind
of
when
I
read
about
the
homelessness
goals
with.
I
was
in
a
sense,
a
little
concerned
about
ending
homelessness.
I
would
love
for
us
to
end
homelessness.
N
I
wouldn't
be
opposed.
If
we
talked
about
reducing
homelessness,
I
don't,
I
think,
a
dress.
I
don't
know
what
a
dress
means.
I
mean
you
address
a
letter.
I
don't
know,
I
don't
know
what
a
dress
means
with
respect
to
homelessness
but
but
reducing
homelessness.
I
could
see
that
as
a
an
okay,
a
as
an
acceptable
you
know
language
to
put
in,
but
the
the
one
I
was
hoping
we
could
beef
up
a
little
bit
is
under
goal.
N
One
policy
eight
support
environmentally
sustainable
practices
in
all
aspects
of
residential
development.
I
I
would
like
to
see
a
little
bit
more.
You
know
staff
add
to
some
more
language
related
to
the
efficiencies
of
water
and
energy
that
come
with
new
development
and
multi-family
home
development.
A
M
So
I'm
I'm
generally
happy
with
the
way
you
know
the
overall
goals.
The
discussion
we've
been
having
I'm
not
going
to
make
any
more
changes
on
those
I
had.
Maybe
three
additional
policy
topics
and
one
is
exploring
shifting
fees
from
housing
to
office
development
in
order
obviously
to
incentivize
housing
over
offices,
maybe
via
a
parkland
dedication
fee
on
offices
and
or
new
nexus
studies
allowing
office
development
fees.
M
AO
Very
quickly,
I
wanted
to
address
a
few
of
these
issues.
I
think,
with
the
with
the
preference
given
to
people
who
live
and
work
in
mountain
view,
there
are
some
legal
limitations
to
what
the
city
can
do.
I
did
want
to
let
you
know,
so
we
will
do
it
to
the
extent
that
we're
allowed
to
by
law,
but
it
probably
won't
go
as
far
as
some
council
members
would
want
us
to
go.
AO
We've
already
had
some
conversations
with
hcd
on
this
and
hud
as
well,
and
some
of
the
recommendations
about
copas
and
community
owned
housing.
That's
already
on
the
list
to
be
studied
by
the
housing
division
as
part
of
council
strategies,
so
you
know
it.
It
could
either
be
included
in
the
housing
element
or
could
be
lived
separately
as
a
strategy
in
the
strategic
work
plan.
R
Thank
you
mary.
I
guess
it
brought
up
the
question.
What
what
is
the
purpose
of
having
these
goals
in
the
housing
element
versus
you
know?
There
could
be
affordable
housing
strategies
or
some
of
our
council
priorities
like
where
do
they
really
need
to
lie?
The
went
specifically
too
I
had
a
question
about
is
safe
parking.
R
I
thought
I
heard
you
earlier
answer
a
question
saying
that
like
vehicles
don't
count
as
housing,
so
expanding
safe
parking
or
saying
we're
going
to
expand
safe
parking
in
the
housing
element
to
me
doesn't
really
seem
to
work
or
match
you
know
so
shouldn't
we
be
looking
at
that
issue
elsewhere,
not
in
the
housing
element.
But
overall
I
guess
yeah.
What's
the
purpose
of
having
these
goals
and
like
do
we
have
to
capture
everything,
that's
in
all
of
our
documents,
or
I
guess
I
just
looked
at
this
as
just
kind
of
general.
X
I
could
speak
to
that
briefly
and
then
maybe
pass
it
off
to
our
consultants,
so
I
think
for
this
particular
question
for
goals
and
policies.
I
think
some
of
the
council
members
providing
specific
programs
is
helpful
because,
as
part
of
the
annual
progress
report,
we
do
have
to
report
on
the
specific
programs
we're
not
reporting
on
the
goals
or
policies,
but
the
programs
themselves,
because
it's
part
of
the
programming
there
are
timelines
funding
sources
and
specific
departments
who
are
required
to
manage
those.
I
think
in
particular
for
the
safe
parking.
X
Well,
the
goals,
policies
and
programs
are
intricately
tied
to
the
arena
and
housing
affordability.
So
some
of
those
questions
about
how
can
we
accommodate
more
moderate
or
other
lower
income
housing
if
we
aren't
specifically
identifying
on
sites?
I
think
a
lot
of
those
programs
can
help
assist
in
that,
so
that's
kind
of
where
that
would
lie
for
the
safe
parking.
I
I
suppose
it
could
be
located
somewhere
else,
but.
AO
I
would
just
want
to
add
to
this
to
say:
if,
if
these
are
we
we're
required
to
report
back
on
on
all
of
these
and
there's
a
there's,
a
pretty
heavy
reporting
requirement.
So
some
of
these
are
exploratory
or
don't
really
add
to
the
housing
element
requirements.
Our
suggestion
would
be
to
have
it
live
in
the
council,
strategic
plans
and
goals.
We
have
a
housing
pro.
AO
R
AO
Yeah,
we'll
we'll
provide
information-
I
you
know,
I
guess,
there's
always
funding
in
some
way
or
technical,
but
we
really
don't
have
the
staffing
to
to
become
that
partner
to
create
to
create
the
actual
entity,
so
to
speak.
So
a
lot
of
this
will
be
maybe
doing
some
initial
resource
work
and
maybe
pointing
people
to
the
right
resources.
R
Well,
so
I'm
actually
fine
with
what
we
have
here.
I
do
agree
with
councilmember
mata
checks.
The
wording
issue
I
actually
was
thinking
address.
I
think
I
know
the
council
member
should
watch
what
that
means,
but
especially
with
one
meeting
that
needs.
I
think
that
is
very
subjective
and
unless
we
can
actually
quantify
that,
I
think
it
it
it's
maybe
a
little
too
broad
and
you
know
not
necessarily,
I
think,
achievable
in
one
arena
cycle.
So
I
would
probably
look
at
changing
that
wording.
A
A
AR
Thank
you
mayor.
Well,
I
would
say
that
out
of
my
four
asks,
the
one
that's
the
highest
priority
for
me
is
to
make
some
kind
of
an
effort
towards
housing
for
people
with
developmental
and
intellectual
disabilities,
because
we
just
have
so
many
families
in
in
the
bay
area
in
our
community
who
are
are
really
stranded
for
a
complete
lack
of
of
housing
options.
AR
A
P
Great
thanks
so
just
wanted
to
add
my
answer
to
question
three,
so
you
know
I
support
the
initial
list
of
the
goals
and
policies.
I
think
the
one
thing
I
was
like
trying
to
decide
which
goal
it
should
go
under
maybe
under
goal.
One
is
one
of
the
things
we've
been
talking
about
a
lot
and
I
guess
it's
kind
of
alluded
to
was
but
kind
of
how
do
we
create
different
nodes
throughout
our
city?
How
do
we
you
know?
P
I
think
we've
talked
about
that
as
as
we're
doing
our
precise
plans,
but
going
beyond
just
the
what
I
think.
A
lot
of
us
consider
the
heart
of
the
city,
as,
as
you
know,
downtown,
but
also
creating
active
nodes
in
san
antonio,
hopefully
middle
field,
north
bay
shore,
and
so
when
we're
talking
about
a
supply
of
housing
that
meets
the
needs
of
the
city,
I
think
we're
kind
of
we're
generally
talking
about
it.
I
don't
know
if
it
needs
to
be
called
out
a
little
bit
more.
We've
talked
a
little
bit.
The
word.
P
Transit
and
transportation
are
in
there,
but
we've
heard
a
lot,
especially
in
the
pandemic,
about
creating
walkable,
bikeable
communities,
and
I
think,
because
we're
talking
about
addressing
our
housing
needs.
How
do
I
feel
like
those
are
really
coupled
together,
and
so
you
know
maybe
that's
under
like
yeah.
I
think
it
most
closely
falls
into
goal
one.
P
M
Well,
I
was
just
gonna
ask
steph
in
since
you're
listing
them
the
various
policy
topics.
We've
brought
up
two
of
the
ones
that
I
brought
off
the
copa
topa
program
and
the
community
land
trust,
whether
staff
thought
that
they
would
be
better
housed
elsewhere.
I
I
felt
like
I
I'm
not
sure
where
we
landed
on
that,
because
I
would
withdraw
them
if,
if
staff
generally
felt,
they
would
be
better
housed
elsewhere,.
AO
AO
Yeah,
if
we're
trying
to
create
some
real
metrics,
I
think
we
want
to
get
more
real
with
what
the
previous
housing
element
was
a
little
more
aspirational
and
what
I'm
sensing
is.
The
council
wants
some
real
metrics,
so
we
want
to
be
realistic
about
what
can
be
achieved
within
the
housing
element
period
and
that
actually
addresses
housing
element
issues.
AO
A
A
Most
of
our
opportunity
sites
are
commercial
areas
and
if
we
proceed
with
redevelopment,
there's
a
pretty
good
chance,
we're
going
to
be
displacing
a
lot
of
small
businesses,
and
so
I
I
don't
know
if
it's
appropriate
to
include
this
in
the
housing
element.
But
I
think
it
would
be
good
to
give
staff
some
direction
early
on
about
whether
we're
interested
in
pursuing
a
small
business,
relocation
or
retention
ordinance
of
some
kind.
A
A
I'm
I
think
this
is
touched
on
a
little
bit,
but
we
should
probably
make
it
more
explicit,
probably
the
biggest
constraint
we're
going
to
encounter
when
dealing
with,
affordable
housing
is
the
financial
constraint.
We
just
don't
have
enough
local
or
regional
funding
or
state
funding
available,
and
I
think
it
might
be
worth
having
staff
evaluate
some
kind
of
ongoing
funding
source.
So
this
could
be
a
ballot
measure.
A
For
instance,
modeled
after
measure
e
in
san
jose,
which
was
a
real
estate,
transfer
tax
imposed
on
commercial
developments
or
it
might
be
some
other
funding
source,
but
I
think
it's
important
to
think
longer
term.
How
do
we
actually
want
to
fund
all
of
the
affordable
housing
the
pipeline?
And
if
it's
appropriate,
to
include
that
in
the
housing
element?
Great-
and
it's
not,
I
think
it's
already
under
consideration
somewhere
else
in
the
work
plan.
A
I
do
think
it's
helpful
to
provide
direction
on
exploring
some
kind
of
housing
overlay
that
would
make
sure
that
we
only
get
affordable
housing
in
certain
sites.
So,
like
the
church
sites,
for
instance,
I'm
not
sure,
there's
a
lot
of
interest
in
market
rate
housing
there.
I
think
we
want
to
preserve
those
more
for
affordable
opportunities
and
so
giving
staff
an
opportunity
to
evaluate
the
feasibility
of
some
kind
of
overlay
would
be
good.
A
I
think
staff
is
already
looking
at
this
too,
but
where
the
general
plan
already
allows
a
maximum
far
as
long
as
you
adhere
to
objective
standards,
allowing
that
development
to
proceed
without
council
approval
so
like
tier
one
tier
two
and
el
camino
real,
there
are
already
objective
standards
in
the
precise
plan.
There's
already
an
allowance
to
go
up
to,
I
think
it's
3.0
f.a.r
and
I
don't
feel
like
there's
a
tremendous
amount
of
value
in
having
the
council
review
code
compliant
projects.
A
R
Thank
you
mayor.
Yes,
I
wanted
to
ask
someone.
I
think
these
are
you
know
great
ideas
that
we've
discussed
before,
but
I
feel
like
we're
getting
into
adding
new
work
plan
items.
Not
you
know
I
just
I
don't
look
at
the
housing
element
again,
I
don't
look
at
it
as
our
way
of
trying
to
add
more
projects
like
that's.
We
have
a
process
for
doing
that,
so
I
was
looking
at
this.
As
you
know
what
we
already
have
in
existence,
maybe
what
we
can
explore,
but
I
you
know
again.
R
I
want
to
be
mindful
of
staff
time
that
there
is
a
time
deadline
to
this
too,
and
also
I
feel
like
these
are
just
new
projects
that
we
should
be
discussing.
Maybe
you
know
in
our
next
round
of
goals
and
work
plan
items,
but
I
I
would
appreciate
staff's
take
on
that.
I
will
say
in
terms
of
the
portal
the
bay
area,
housing
finance
authority
that
I
am
on.
That's
actually
one
of
our
five
projects,
so
we're
looking
at
doing
something
bay,
area-wide
already
and
and
then
in
terms
of
funding
mechanisms.
R
You
know,
I
think
we
really
have
to
be
right,
mindful
of
what
the
state
is
wanting
to
do,
and
so
I
could
support
saying
we
can
support.
You
know:
state
efforts
for
more
affordable
housing,
but
again,
if
we're
looking
at
some
kind
of
bond
measure
or
parcel
tax
or
what
whatever
in
the
city
that's
a
whole
to
me,
a
whole
new
project.
We
just
took
the
tot
off
and
you
know
I
I
would
hesitate
to
try
to
add
some
some
kind
of
tax
measure
or
a
bond
measure
on
housing
at
this
time.
R
So
I
I
I
don't
think
we
should
be
putting
all
this
in
the
housing
element
right
now.
I
think
we
need
to
you
know
kind
of
vet
all
this
before
we
we
decide
what
we're
going
to
do
in
terms
of
programs.
But
again
you
know,
and
then
I
wanted
to
flag
on
page
14
of
the
staff
report,
there's
item
7
that
says,
encourage
and
support
the
maintenance,
preservation
and
development
of
subsidized
housing,
that
service,
low-income
households,
seniors,
disabled
individuals,
the
homeless,
larger
households,
historically
underserved
communities
and
other
special
needs
populations.
R
I
think
that
covers
council
member
libra's
concern
unless
it's
something
more
than
that
so
but
yeah.
If
staff
could
maybe
give
us
a
little
bit
die
of
guidance
on
what
we
really
should
be
looking
at
putting
in
this
versus
what
our
work
plan
items
that
we
need
to
discuss
down
the
road.
That
would
be
great.
Thank
you.
H
Yes,
thank
you
mayor
and
council
member
ave
koga,
so
some
of
the
things
that
we
have
heard
are
actually
in
the
works
with
some
of
our
current
work
plan
products.
So,
for
example,
you
all
did
approve
having
an
economic
vitality,
strategic
plan
and
we
just
released
the
rfp
and
we'll
be
hiring
a
consultant
to
help
us
with
that.
So,
for
example,
the
small
business,
relocation
or
retention
ordinance,
I
see
a
potential
nexus
there,
the
affordable
housing
measure.
AO
I
I
think
I
think
you're
right
the
city
manager
did
highlight
some
of
these
issues.
For
example,
the
small
business
retention
plan
is
something
that
will
be
part
of
the
economic
vitality
strategy,
probably
wouldn't
be
belong
in
the
housing
element,
but
we'll
be
very
cognizant
of
that
as
we
develop
village
center
rezoning,
you
know
zoning
policies
right,
so
we
can
look
at.
You
know
incentivizing
the
retention
of
businesses.
AO
You
know
el
camino.
Does
this
as
a
community
benefit
in
the
second
year,
so
there's
examples
of
how
you
can
achieve
it
with
zoning,
but
the
actual
effort
would
probably
lie
elsewhere.
So
we
can.
We
can
sort
of
create
that
dichotomy
as
we
move
forward.
Some
of
these,
we
believe,
don't
belong
in
the
housing
element
because
they
don't
really
address
all
the
housing
element
items,
but
they
will
certainly
belong
in
the
council
strategic
work
plan
for
housing.
AO
You
know
I
can't
separate
them
specifically,
but
many
of
them
will
relate
to.
I
think
I
think
the
focus
on
the
housing
element
will
be
looking
at
specifically.
What
the
housing
element
asks
us
to
look
at
right,
which
is
making
housing
affordable
to
various
incomes,
to
people
of
all
kinds,
reducing
barriers,
and
there
might
be
others
that
don't
quite
belong
in
the
housing
element,
and
we
would
recommend
that
they
live
outside
primarily
to
keep
us
focused
on
on
housing
element
items.
O
X
I
just
want
to
add
one
thing:
the
focus
is
on
the
goals
and
policies,
but
sometimes
it's
easier
to
formulate
a
program
that
can
then
inform
what
the
policy
is,
and
I
think
that's
kind
of
why
everyone
is
directed
towards
creating
programs
so
yeah.
Our
specific
question
is
the
goals
and
policies,
but
if
there
are
programs
that
can
feed
into
the
golden
policies,
it
kind
of
works
both
ways.
O
Okay
yeah.
I
also
think
council
member
lieber's
comment
about
including
housing
for
the
disabled
can
also
be
folded
into
policy
three
of
goal,
one
because
it
lists
that
we
want
to
have
a
range
of
housing
range
of
densities
for
a
diverse
population,
and
then
we
list
a
whole
bunch.
I
think
it's
easy
to
add
another
one
to
the
list.
O
A
A
Ms
yaoi,
your
comments
about
the
programs,
policies
and
goals
and
how
they
interrelate,
because
I
think
it
is
difficult
to
come
in
very,
very
high
level,
with
goals
and
and
not
really
have
a
good
sense
of
what
sort
of
the
practical
impact
may
be
so
early
on.
So
I
I'm
going
to
go
through
the
list
and
I
think
it
all
comes
in
with
a
sense
of
broad
latitude
for
staff
to
say
is
this
appropriate
to
include
in
the
housing
element
you
know
based
on
council's
interest
in
a
given
program?
A
Should
we
change
a
policy
or
goal
to
be
more
reflective
of
what
we're
trying
to
achieve,
and
then
you
know,
for
instance,
some
things
may
be
important
to
have
as
both
a
work
plan
item
and
also
a
housing
element
item,
and
some
things
may
not
be
so.
I
think,
having
staff's
input
on
on
these
ideas
will
be
helpful
for
us
as
well.
At
the
next
study
session,
councilmember
councilmember
liber
did
you
you
had
your
hand
up.
Is
there
anything
you
wanted
to
add.
A
A
So
that
way
at
the
conclusion
of
the
planning
period,
the
council
is
on
the
same
page
about
whether
we've
made
progress
or
not
so
staff
would
be
empowered
to
come
back
with
performance
indicators
or
metrics
for
each
goal,
and
then
we
will
have
an
opportunity
to
weigh
in
at
the
next
study
session.
Is
there
support
for
that
recommendation?.
O
A
AO
AO
You
know
units
for
developmentally
disabled
during
the
period
or
find
funding,
or
you
know,
there's
ways
to
the
goal
itself
may
not
include
specific
metrics,
but
you
know
you
could
direct
us
to
look
at
creating
metrics
through
through
the
policy
of
the
programs,
and
some
of
these
are
already
in
our
cdbg
action
plan.
We
can,
we
can
sort
of
you
know,
allude
to
some
of
those
to
the
extent
that
they
relate
to
the
housing
element.
N
So
so
the
type
of
thing
that
our
that
our
team
mentioned,
I
think,
is
appropriate
and
it
fits
in
and
it's
and
you
know
then
that's
fine,
but
I
don't
think
we
want
staff
to
be
spending
an
undue
amount
of
time
on
this,
because
I
do
think
that
really
the
metric
is
have
we
met
the
written
numbers.
You
know
the
state
gives
us
a
metric,
we
don't
necessarily
have
to
make
it
any
more
complicated
than
that,
but
but
there
are
certain
certain
things
that
we
we
want.
A
AO
We
were
not
specifically
looking
at
metrics,
but
if
the
council
wants
us
to
include,
I
think
we
we
want
to
make
sure
that
some
of
these
are
aspirational
and
what
we
don't
want
to
do
is
you
know
we
want
to
we.
We
do
want
to
reflect
the
fact
that
we
want
to
strive
to
achieve
some
of
these,
but
we
also
don't
want
to
add
metrics
that
are
probably
not
achievable.
So
I
think
we
have
to
be
really
careful,
and
I
do
want
to
remind
the
council
if
they
end
up
in
our
housing
element.
AO
AO
AP
And
I'll
just
add
on
to
that,
the
state
law
does
require
us
to
quantify
our
programs
to
the
extent
that
they
produce
housing.
So
we
need
to
say
that
for
for
the
every
program
that
we
have,
how
many
housing
units
do,
we
think
it's
going
to
produce
what
type,
what
income
level
we
have
to
be
very
quantitative
in
that
in
that
process.
A
Okay,
that's
that's
very
helpful.
Thank
you.
So
it
may
be
that
we
don't
need
a
council
vote,
because
the
state
already
compels
us
to
devise
some
some
number
of
metrics
anyway.
Okay,
so
then,
moving
on
to
the
next
set
of
recommendations,
there
was
a
request
to
better
define
or
clarify
goal.
One
meets
the
needs
so
right
now
the
goal
is
a
supply
of
housing
that
meets
the
needs
of
the
city.
The
council
would
be
requesting
that
staff
provide
greater
clarity
or
definition
to
that
goal.
Is
there
support
for
that
recommendation?
A
Two.
Three:
four:
okay,
that's
five,
five,
two
I'll
say
five,
two
for
goal,
two
policy,
one
of
which
is
assist
extremely
low
through
moderate
income,
households
and
renting
or
purchasing
a
home.
In
mountain
view,
the
request
is
to
change
the
word,
assist
to
explore
or
explore
assisting.
Is
there
council
support
for
that
recommendation.
A
A
O
O
I
I
didn't
pick
words
for
these,
and
so
I
can
see
why
I'm
the
only
one
saying
you
know
I
want
to
change
some
of
these.
I
actually
feel
like
it's
going
to
be
hard
for
me
to
vote
on
all
of
the
recommendations
from
my
colleagues
here
tonight,
because
I
feel
like
we're
mixing
policies
and
programs,
and
I
I
don't
feel
like
I
can
vote
on
programs
that
I
don't
know
really
what
they
are
and
how
much
work
they
are,
if
they're
feasible
how
much
they
might
cost.
O
A
I
well
I
I
think,
that's
that's
fair
and
I'm
trying
to
figure
out
a
way
to
to
gauge
which
recommendations
have
counsel
majority
support
and
which
ones
don't,
because
we've
also
expressed
concern
with
study
sessions,
where
we
provide
a
lot
of
robust
input
and
if
we
we
don't
necessarily
agree
on
what
the
conclusion
of
that
discussion
is.
This
is
a
hard
item.
I
think,
to
have
a
study
session
on
so
we're
doing
the
best
we
can
council,
member
masscheck
yeah.
O
A
So
those
especially
it
might
be
helpful
to
include
in
in
the
housing
moment
or
not,
but
I
don't
think
right
now.
We
have
enough
information
to
say
you
know
this.
One
must
be
included
or
this
one
shouldn't
be,
but
if
it
helps
us
achieve
the
goals
that
we're
articulating,
then
it's
probably
appropriate.
A
So
so
we
can.
We
can
provide
sort
of
high
level
direction
to
staff,
to
evaluate
whether
it's
appropriate
in
the
first
place,
to
include
some
of
these
without
explicitly
committing
to
including
them
tonight,
because
you're
right
there
isn't
enough
information
for
for
most
of
them.
Council,
member
lieber.
AR
Thank
you
mir
for
for
the
ones
that
there
is
council
support,
I'm
fine
with
staff
coming
back
to
say,
hey.
We
took
a
very
brief
look
at
this
and
we
think
it
should
live
in
the
work
plan
in
instead
of
in
the
the
housing
element.
It's
really
not
appropriate
for
there,
so
we're
going
to
sweep
it
into
the
work
plan.
A
And
I
think
also
to
to
an
earlier
point,
I
think
it's
an
important
one.
We
may
not
necessarily
have
the
the
right
language
to
commit
to
tonight,
and
so
I
I
would
I'll
ask
staff
so
for,
for
instance,
you
know
we
talked
about
meeting
the
needs
or
committing
to
words
like
assist
or
create
or
ending
will
staffs
based
on
this
input
come
back
with
modifications
to
the
language
that
might
be
more
appropriate
or
more
achievable
or
more
quantifiable.
AO
AR
It
seems
like
a
general
drift
of
what
I'm
interpreting
from
councilmember
manichak
is
that
she
would
like
to
see
less
aspirational
language
and
and
more
maybe
grounded
language
around.
You
know
addressing
homelessness
versus
ending
homelessness,
because
it's
obvious
that
we
live
in
a
world
of
a
lot
of
complex
forces,
few
of
which
are
within
our
control,
and
so
so
I'm,
okay
with
you,
know,
sort
of
across
the
board
kind
of
making
those
more
realistic.
O
A
So
maybe
then,
as
high-level
direction,
we
would
say
the
staff
use
less
aspirational
language
and
instead
use
language
that
might
be
achievable.
Given
the
practical
considerations
and
constraints
that
we
have
over
the
next
eight
years
council
member
mata
check
would
would
that
be
fairly
responsive.
Okay.
So
so
then,
let's,
let's
take
a
vote
on
that.
So
this
would
be
general
direction
to
staff
to
take
out
aspirational
language
and
put
in,
I
think,
to
use
your
term
counselor
leave
a
more
grounded
language.
A
A
A
There
was
a
recommendation,
a
council
member
committee's
recommendation
to
include
as
part
of
general
sorry
as
goal
one.
This
could
be
a
policy
or
maybe
in
the
goal
itself,
consideration
of
creating
active
nodes
and
ensuring
that
we're
creating
walkable
and
likable
communities
with
amenities
and
services
council.
Member
to
me.
P
Great
thank
you.
So
I
was
reminded
that
the
nodes
was
part
of
the
general
plan
discussion
and
I
knew
that
I
that
it
was
somewhere.
So
if
that
suffices,
that,
then
that's
that's
fine
and
I
think
staff
will
kind
of
similar
to
what
councilman
mata
check
was
talking
about
earlier
staff
can
just
kind
of
include
my
comments
wherever
they
see
fit
in
terms
of
if
we
are
able
to
include
any
walkable
bikeable
kind
of
language
that
we've
been
hearing,
then
that
I'm
fine
with
that,
I
don't
think
a
formal
emotion
is
necessary.
Thanks.
A
Thank
you
for,
for
that
suggestion.
I
think
that's
that's
reasonable.
All
right,
so
I've
got
a
few
more.
There
was
a
recommendation
and
correct
me
if
I,
if
I
didn't
capture
this
accurately,
to
prioritize
or
explore
efficiency
units
or
studios
to
serve
as
many
people
as
possible,
is
there
support
for
that
recommendation.
A
A
R
A
A
AR
B
AR
Y
Just
add
one
thing:
we
do
implement
a
live
work,
preference
for
our
bmr
units
currently
and
for
some
of
our
100
affordable
housing
units,
but
not
all
of
them
for
the
for
the
purposes
that
rt
just
explained,
and
we
have
been
required
to
review
our
existing
preferences
so
they're
currently
under
review.
So
we'll
see
what
happens
in
the
future.
A
The
next
item
is
consideration
of
a
local
sb
330
type
ordinance.
So
this
is
already
in
the
work
plan
from
what
I
understand
replacement
requirements,
first
right
of
return,
and
I
think
the
direction
would
be
to
have
staff
evaluate
whether
it's
appropriate
to
include
this
in
the
housing
element
as
well.
Is
there
a
majority
support
for
having
staff
evaluate
that
one?
Two,
three,
okay,
it
looks
like
this
is
majority
support?
A
So
this
one
is,
I
think
we
could
use
a
little
bit
more
definition.
There
was
a
recommendation
to
include.
I
think
it
was
expansion
of
the
safe
parking
program
they
asked.
Did
you
have
thoughts,
so
this
would
be
to
evaluate
whether
that's
appropriate
to
include
in
the
housing
element.
Essentially,
I
think
that's.
My
understanding
of
the
recommendation
is
there
support
to
have
staff
evaluate
whether
it's
appropriate
to
include
safe
parking
and
the
housing
development
goals,
policies
and
programs
looks
like
there
is
not
majority
support
for
that.
A
AO
Thank
you.
This
is,
I
believe,
a
goal
already
and
if
you
had
to
ask
us
today,
we
would
say:
let's
leave
a
little
bit
of
flexibility,
to
implement
some
of
these
and
not
have
them,
be
the
top
priority,
because
council
might
want
other
goals
and
policies
to
be
implemented,
because
these
will
take
top
priority
and
they
will
involve
other
departments
and
council
goals
will
not
be
top
priority.
H
Yes,
thank
you
mayor
just
to
kind
of
piggyback
on
what
rt
said.
So,
if,
if
you
remember
this
was
last
year,
and
so
I
know
a
lot's
happened
since
then,
we
had
a
lot
of
discussions
during
the
strategic
roadmap
process
about
the
difference
between
the
the
work
plan
or
the
road
map
that
you
all
were
adopting
and
then
all
the
other
special
projects
and
work
that
is
underway
with
all
these
other
plans
that
we
have
so
the
you
know,
the
general
plan,
the
housing
element,
the
the
race,
equity
and
inclusion
action
plan.
H
So
essentially,
I
think
what
what
rt
is
saying
is,
if
you
add
these
things
into
the
housing
element,
then
the
other
projects
and
priorities
that
are
already
in
your
strategic
work
plan
would
fall
down
on
the
list
and
you
all
have
already
prioritized
those
items.
So
I
think
it's
just
being
a
little
circumspect
on
what
you're
adding
to
what
what
policy
and
and
whether
you
keep
it
in
your
work
plan
versus
just
adding
all
these
things
to
the
housing
element.
So
just
something
for
you
all
to
think
about.
H
You
do
have
an
ambitious
work
plan.
Now
that
has
most
items
in
the
intentional
housing
and
development
council
priority,
so
staff
can
take
a
look
at
what
things
might
we
might
be
able
to
call
out
that
are
already
there,
but
yeah
just
just
know
that
if
we
add
items
to
the
housing
element,
they're
going
to
take
priority
over
all
those
other
things
that
are
in
the
other
strategic
roadmap.
A
A
Personally,
we
don't
have
the
results
yet,
but
the
constraints
analysis
includes
evaluation
of
the
financial
feasibility
of
residential
development,
and
if
we
find
that
it
is
a
significant
constraint
and
we
have
to
come
up
with
a
solution
to
address
it
anyway,
it
might
be
good
to
have
this
in
our
back
pocket,
so
it
might
be
instead
have
staff
evaluate
whether
it's
appropriate
to
include
shifting
fees
from
housing
to
office
development
if
the
financial
feasibility
constraints
require
us
to
is
that
I
think
vice
mayor
hicks?
That
was
your
recommendation.
Is
that
are
you?
A
A
A
One
two
three?
Oh,
so
there
is
four
so
that
one
two
four
hands,
okay,
so
steph
will
evaluate
whether
that's
appropriate
to
include
in
the
housing
element
and
then
very.
Similarly.
I
think
this
is
already
in
our
in
our
displacement
strategy
or
response
strategy,
invest
in
opportunities
like
community
owned
housing
or
clts
or
limited
equity.
Co-Ops
so
again
have
staff
evaluate
whether
it's
appropriate
to
include
that
in
the
housing
element.
It's
their
majority
support
for
that
recommendation.
A
That's
four
to
three:
okay:
almost
there
so
staff
already
mentioned
that
the
small
business
relocation
consideration
is
being
evaluated
as
part
of
the.
I
think
it
was
the
economic
vitality
strategy
and
the
zoning,
so
I
don't
think
a
vote
staff.
Do
you
feel
there
would
be
value
in
having
direction
on
that
or
definitely
not?
A
AO
Yes,
we
believe
so,
and
I
I
do
know
that
the
housing
division
is
working
with
house
keys,
our
our
our
new
provider,
to
create
a
a
better
portal,
while
keeping
in
mind
that
each
each
development
has
different
requirements
based
on
the
funding.
So
we
are
already
working
on
it.
So
we
don't
believe
it's
it's
necessary.
A
Okay,
great
so
then
we
won't
need
a
vote
on
that.
This
is
already
part
of
the
work
plan.
So
again,
this
would
be
having
staff
evaluate
whether
it's
appropriate
to
include
in
the
housing
element
but
explore
a
revenue
generating
ballot
measure
to
fund
affordable
housing
and
related
programs
like
the
acquisition
rehabilitation
program,
we're
considering
and
that's
not
specifying
a
particular
source
of
revenue,
but
just
the
generation
council.
Member
to
me.
P
Great
thanks,
I
see
the
city
manager
has
her
hand
up,
so
it
might
be
the
same
question
as
mine,
but
is
this
for
the
housing
element,
or
should
we
talk
about
this
in
goal
setting,
I
just
wasn't
sure,
maybe
maybe
the
city
manager
can
let
us
know,
I'm
interested.
I
just
I'm
not
sure
where
it's
appropriate.
P
H
May
or
may
I
answer
that,
okay
mayor
and
council
council
member
commay,
so
this
is
already
on
your
work
plan.
The
strategic
roadmap
and
staff
is
already
planning
to
bring
an
item
to
council
in
the
probably
the
august
september
time
frame
to
discuss,
affordable
housing
options,
funding
options.
So
I
would
recommend
that
this
not
be
part
of
the
housing
element,
but
instead
we
come
to
council
first
get
your
direction
and
then
go
forward
in
that
way,
and
I
would
I
would
also
say
we
might
need
to
spend
the
next.
H
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
O
A
AO
A
Okay
and
looks
like
there's
thumbs
up
to
that
staff's
feedback.
Okay
majority
support
for
that.
Thank
you
all
right,
final
question
is:
does
the
city
council
support
staff's
recommendations,
study
targeted,
updates
to
the
non-conforming
section
of
the
zoning
code
to
expand
the
ability
to
maintain
and
preserve
the
number
of
residential
units
on
lots
that
do
not
conform
to
allow
to
to
allow
densities
and
that's
applied
similarly
to
r1
and
r2
zoned
parcels?
P
I
mean
I'll
just
be
brief,
yes,
you
know
apprecia,
I
don't
really
have
any
other
comments
and
maybe
that's
why
you're
not
seeing
hands
plus
the
hour,
but
I
you
know.
I
appreciate
that
staff
is,
you
know
also
using
that
the
housing
element
to
kind
of
kind
of
do
a
clean
up
right,
and
I-
and
I
see
that
this
is
you
know,
part
of
that
so
appreciate
that
they're
trying
to
bring
everything
into
conformity.
So
that's
it
thanks.
A
Thank
you,
so
it
sounds
like
there
might
be
support
for
the
staff
recommendation.
I
I
did
have
a
different
opinion
and
if
there
isn't
support
for
this,
this
is
fine.
I
do
have
a
concern
about
keeping
these
properties
zoned
for
something
other
than
what
they
are
and
just
having
the
non-conforming
regulations
modified
to
allow
redevelopment
of
existing
densities,
because
I
I
think
I
guess
the
question
I
would
have
for
staff
is,
if
somebody
redevelops
a
property
with
clearly
non-conforming
standards.
AO
Typically,
under
non-conforming
they're
allowed
to
build
back,
for
example,
the
existing
far
build
back
at
the
existing
heights.
Those
are
what
you
can
build
back,
build
back.
The
existing
buildings
rebuild
the
existing
densities.
That's
what
happens
if
we
re-zone,
then
we
have
to
go
back
and
that's
additional
work.
We
have
to
go
back
and
look
at
what
zone
to
fit
it
in.
I
know
we're
going
through
a
revision
with
r3.
AO
AO
AH
N
Yeah,
you
know,
I
think
this
is
an
excellent
idea.
I
know
that
I've
encountered
this
problem
of
what
you
can
build
back
with
in
dealing
with
floods.
You
know
where
people
people,
if
people
are
built,
if
more
than
50
of
their
house
has
been
destroyed,
you
know,
then
they
they,
they
don't
qualify
for
necessary
to
build
back,
there's
problems
with
fire,
all
sorts
of
things,
but
anyway,
I
think.
N
Basically,
it's
really
a
good
idea,
because
there
are
instances
where,
for
one
reason
or
another,
people
have
a
house
that
is
larger
or
a
multi-family
unit.
That
is
there's
probably
not
very
many
of
them
that
that
is,
you
know
over
the
requirements
and
we're
in
the
business
of
making
more
housing,
not
making
less
housing,
and
so
I
think
you
know,
as
as
our
team
mentioned,
that
this
is
this
is
protective
and
we
wanna
this
is
part
of
preserve,
protect.
N
A
Okay,
thank
you
very
much.
I'm
going
to
support
the
staff
recommendation
too.
I
do
think
it's
a
an
appropriate
interim
measure,
but
down
the
road.
I
think
it
will
be
important
to
have
actual
development
standards
to
to
apply
so
whether
that's
part
of
the
r3
update
or
something
for
further
down
the
road.
That's
fine,
but
as
an
interim
measure,
this
seems
reasonable
any
other
thoughts
or
questions.
A
Otherwise,
we'll
take
a
quick
straw,
pull
everyone
in
support
of
the
staff
recommendation
for
question
four
one,
two,
three
four
five,
so
that
has
unanimous
support.
Thank
you.
Okay,
we've
covered
all
of
the
questions
staff.
Anything
you
would
like
us
to
clarify
or
anything
else
that
we
should
know.
AO
No,
I
think
we
have
the
caveats
that
we
provided,
which
is
we
have
limited
time
and
we're
going
to
do
our
best
with
the
housing
element
sites,
the
collaboration
and
we'll
do
a
quick
sweep
of
whether
they
meet
hcd
criteria
before
going
any
deeper.
So
you
might
see
some
very
preliminary
eliminations
because
they're
not
worth
pursuing,
at
least
in
the
housing
element,
so
I
think
I
think
we're
okay
with
the
with
the
direction
so
far.
A
A
A
AQ
A
C
C
C
So
I'll
start
off
with
the
ab571
portion
of
the
presentation,
we'll
pause
for
any
questions
on
this
specific
piece
and
then
I'll
hand.
The
rest
of
the
presentation
off
to
senior
assistant
city
attorney,
nicole
wright
for
her
piece
ab571,
went
into
effect
january
1st
2021
and
imposes
the
campaign
contribution
limit
for
state
candidates
on
all
counties
and
cities
that
had
not
already
adopted
its
own
ordinance.
C
As
you
know,
the
city
has
a
voluntary
expenditure
limit,
but
no
contribution
limit
for
candidates
for
city
council.
As
of
today,
the
the
city
has
essentially
defaulted
to
the
contribution
limit
imposed
by
the
state,
which
is
four
thousand
nine
hundred
dollars
for
the
year.
2022
that's
per
donor
per
election.
C
So
the
three
options
before
council
for
this
particular
piece
are
to
continue
to
default
to
the
state
limit,
which
will
be
by
a
biannually
increased
for
inflation
and
for
which
the
fair
political
practices
commission
is
responsible
for
enforcing
two
direct
staff
to
come
back
with
an
ordinance
that
sets
a
different
limit
for
the
city,
which
can
be
either
higher
or
lower
than
the
state
limit
or
three
direct
staff
to
come
back
with
an
ordinance
that
declares.
There
is
no
limit
in
the
city,
which
is
also
an
option.
C
If
the
council
chooses
to
go
with
either
option
two
or
three,
the
ordinance
would
be
inclusive
of
any
other
direction.
You
give
to
staff
this
evening
on
the
campaign,
finance
reporting
and
disclosure
and
advertisement
piece
with
that
assistant
city
attorney
diana
fazili
and
I
are
available
for
any
questions
about
this
particular
piece
of
the
report.
C
AT
AU
Sorry
so,
given
the
late
hour
as
well
I'll
do
a
brief
overview
of
of
the
presentation
and
I
might
skip
over
some
of
the
content.
It's
all
been
included
in
the
staff
report.
I'd
be
happy
there
to
address
any
questions
that
council
might
have
on
anything
that
I
that
I
do
go
over
quickly
at
the
end
of
the
presentation,
so
there's
two
additional
pieces
that
we're
seeking
council
direction
on
this
evening.
The
first
are
staff
recommended
amendments
to
the
city's
disclosure
and
advertisement
ordinance.
AU
In
addition,
staff
is
seeking
council
direction
on
whether
to
include
enhanced
reporting
and
disclosure
requirements.
During
the
2020
election
there
were
advertisements
that
were
distributed.
That
did
not
include
disclosures.
Identifying
the
individual
responsible
for
the
advertisement
council
had
requested
staff
to
identify
as
ways
to
improve
transparency
in
campaign.
Literature
and
staff
has
identified
a
recommended
approach
to
to
do
so.
For
council
consideration.
AU
State
law
defines
a
committee
to
include
an
individual
or
group
of
individuals
receiving
contributions,
totaling,
two
thousand
dollars,
or
more
or
making
independent
expenditures,
totaling
a
thousand
dollars
or
more
and
a
person
or
group
of
persons
that
don't
meet
these
threshold
limits
and
don't
meet.
These
definitions
would
not
qualify
as
a
committee
and
therefore
would
not
be
subject
to
reporting
and
disclosure
requirements.
AU
The
city
can
enact
additional
measures
to
provide
greater
transparency
than
than
those
required
under
state
law.
The
city
can
enact
additional
reporting
requirements
as
well
as
additional
disclosure
requirements
and
can
lower
the
threshold
amount.
That
would
qualify
a
committee
as
a
committee
and
subject
them
to
disclosure
and
reporting
obligations.
AU
R
Thank
you
mayor
and
I
guess
my
question
is
using
the
the
scenario
or
my
the
experience
from
the
last
election,
and
I
think
you
touched
on
it.
The
the
concern
I
get
or
the
question
I
had
has
to
do
with.
I
guess
mass
mailings,
so
I
you
know,
I
saw
the
same
flyer
at
many
many
residences,
so
if
mass
mailing
by
an
individual
is
or
if
it
totals
200
or
more
of
the
same
flyer,
does
that
trigger
any
kind
of
disclosure
requirements.
AS
AQ
AU
No,
no
sorry,
sorry,
council,
member
yeah,
so
that
there's
two
let's
go
back
to
the
slide
so
yeah
so
for
mass
mailing
requirements
to
apply
which
is
defined
as
200,
substantially
similar
pieces
of
mail
sent
within
a
calendar
year.
For
that
to
apply
it
would
either
apply
to
a
candidate
or
to
a
committee
right
and
so
in
order
for
that
to
apply
to
an
individual
issuing
them
that
individual
would
have
to
meet
the
definition
of
a
committee,
meaning
that
they've
met
those
threshold
amounts.
So
an
individual
sending
out.
AU
R
Your
question
any
individual
could
put
out
a
flyer
the
same
flyer
as
long
as
it's
under
or
as
long
as
they
haven't
spent.
Let's
say
whatever
we
decide
the
disclosure
requirement.
That's
I
think
you
recommend
500.
So
if
they're
under
five
hundred
dollars,
they
can
put
out
as
many
flyers
as
they
want
without
disclosing
who
they
are
as
that
is
that.
AS
R
AU
They
would
so
that's
where
the
advertisement
disclosure
requirements
could
apply
again.
It
would
be
dependent
upon
whether
the
individual,
creating
the
the
flyers
and
distributing
them
would
constitute
a
committee,
so
whether
the
dollar
thresholds
again
are
met.
If
those
dollar
thresholds
are
so
we're
proposing
500
dollars.
So
if
an
individual
spent
600
dollars
making
signs
and
flyers
and
distributing
them,
then
they
would
qualify
as
a
committee
and
be
subject
to
disclosure
requirements.
AR
AR
AU
Yeah,
so
I
think
I
think,
there's
a
couple
pieces
to
that.
So
you
know
if
they
comply
with
the
requirements,
it
would
mean
that
then
they
would
have
to
submit
can't
file
campaign
statements
with
the
city
to
form
their
committee,
as
well
as
the
the
period
reporting
that's
required
in
educational
election
reporting.
AU
There
any
contributions
and
over
100
and
expenditures,
and
I
think
what
is
a
little
trickier
is
if
someone
is
not
complying
by
you
know,
submitting
those
campaign
statements
and
also
issuing
advertisements
without
disclosures
trying
to
enforce
that
becomes
a
little
more
difficult
to
do.
If
somebody
wants
to
subvert
compliance
with
with
the
law,
I
think
the
idea
that
we're
proposing
is
as
soon
as
I
get
some
level
of
compliance
or
or
trying
to
comply.
AR
AU
I
think,
and
we'd
have
to
consider
what
the
enforcement
mechanisms
would
be,
especially
if
we
have
information
to
know
you
know
who
is
violating
just
like
any
of
our
other
ordinances.
We'd
have
some
enforcement
measures
and
we'd
have
to
con?
Consider
how
we
would
how
we
would
propose
enforcement
of
that.
B
And
if
I
could
just
add
there
are,
the
fppc
does
some
enforcement,
and
then
this
is
enforcement
of
the
city
regulations,
and
so
we've
structured
the
ordinance
so
that
it
it
is
like
it's
like
the
state
law
and
so
that
it
goes
after
committees,
because
can
that
is
a
way
that
we
can
prove
it.
So
we
use
the
reporting
requirements
to
enforce
the
disclosure
requirements,
and
we
also
in
drafting
these
regulations,
had
to
consider
the
fact
that
there
is
some
first
amendment
rights
to
have
anonymous
speech.
B
N
Basically,
it's
the
cost
of
the
paper,
and
I
guess
you
could
attribute
some
ink
to
it,
but
I
mean
you
can
make
a
lot
of.
You
can
make
a
lot
of
flyers
and
if
you're
not
mailing
them,
then
they
don't
really
qualify
this
way,
if
they're
just
being
distributed,
you
know,
door-to-door
they
don't
qualify.
Right
so
is.
Is
that
correct.
AU
N
R
R
AS
AU
Under
under
our
under
under
our
current
disclosure
ordinance-
and
it's
also
similar
under
state
law,
which,
as
interim
city
attorney
quinn
mentioned,
which
is
based
upon
the
frame,
the
current
framework
for
state
law,
the
notion
is:
there's
a
requirement
for
filing
campaign
statements
right.
That
include
expenditures
being
made
right
and
costs
going
out
related
to
the
production
of
advertisements.
D
AU
AU
R
R
AU
Well
and
that's
what
that's,
what
staff
is
proposing
that
we
would
require
that
that
the
threshold
of
500
anybody
meeting
that
threshold
in
expenditures
or
receipt
of
contributions
would
form
a
committee
and
file
that
required
paperwork
with
the
city
clerk
and
would
file
campaign
statements
and
assuming
that
they
comply
with
that,
then
we
would
be
able
it
would
help
us
with
enforcement
right.
I
understood
the
question
to
be,
if
you
know,
if
they're
actually
expending
600
but
they're
not
filing
anything.
AU
AU
I
mean
not
that
I
can
think
of
offhand.
I
mean,
I
think
I
think
we
can
go
back
and
take
a
look
at
what
the
fppc
does
at
the
state
level
for
if
there's
a
committee
that
you
know
should
be
formed,
but
isn't
you
know
because
they're
expending
eleven
hundred
dollars
in
independent
expenditures,
what
the
enforcement
mechanism
is
there
or
what
you
know?
AS
AR
AR
B
It's
always
a
balancing
test
when
you,
when
you
get
involved
with
constitutional
rights,
and
it's
we
looked
at
where
the
fppc
draws
the
line
they
draw.
The
line
at
100
is
when
you
have
to
disclose
a
contribution
so
whether
they
they
chose
that
dollar
amount
for
out
of
constitutional
concerns
or
practical
realities
of
enforcement.
B
And
so
you
know
to
date,
we
had
really
focused
on
you
know
having
to
disclose
at
a
certain
level,
and
we
were
looking
at
reducing
that
dollar
amount,
which
is
going
to
increase
the
potential
of
workload
for
the
city,
attorney's
office
and
the
city
clerk's
office.
Now
we
do
investigate
on
a
on
a
complaint
basis,
but
the
lower
you
make
that
dollar
limit.
So
if
we
find
somebody
has
10
flyers,
you
know
is
that
the
level
of
enforcement
that
that
we
should
that
that
resources
should
be
dedicated
to
that
level
of
enforcement.
A
AV
The
city
of
hayward
has
that
as
an
example
of
that,
and
the
city
of
newark
has
an
example
of
that
for
the
city
of
newark.
What
it
actually
has
a
lot
of
what
they
have
is
if
a
candidate
accepts
the
contribution
and
then
finds
itself
in
violation
of
the
voluntary
expenditure
limit.
Eventually,
they
have
14
days
to
return
the
excess
of
the
contribution.
AV
With
these
various
things,
there's
really
wide,
ranging
levels
of
how
much
the
contribution
limit
would
actually
be
like
the
city
of
downing
has
like
in
thousands
comparatively
difference.
The
city
of
hayward
has
the.
If
you
don't
accept
the
voluntary
expenditure
limit,
your
contribution
limit
is
like
350
dollars,
but
if
you-
but
if
you
do
accept
it,
it's
a
thousand
dollars
so
like
there's
the
the
actual,
the
actual
amount
changes
with
the
county.
AQ
As
you
may
know,
the
league
of
women
voters
supports
campaign
finance
practices
that
increase
transparency
and
funding
sources
in
political
campaigns,
so
that
voters
can
be
more
informed
when
making
their
decisions,
and
the
league
also
supports
the
effective
monitoring
enforcement
of
campaign
finance
laws.
The
the
league
would
support
city
council
enacting
some
kind
of
contribution
limit
for
candidates
for
city
council
races,
as
well
as
the
disclosure
requirements
for
committee
contributions.
AH
S
Greetings
all
it's
a
real
barn
burner
tonight,
one
of
the
worst
things
that
was
that
has
happened
in
my
lifetime
in
terms
of
judicial
decisions
was
citizens
united,
where
speech
was
decided
to
be
money
that
the
huge
infusion
of
money
in
politics
is
really
a
something
that
we
need
to
fight
back
against.
It
would
be
great
to
have
some
sort
of
contribution,
limits
and
disclosure
things
at
the
local
level
so
that
we
can
do
what
we
can
so
hope
to
see.
Something
like
that.
AK
AW
AL
Morning,
council,
so
yes,
I'm
going
to
echo
basically
the
points
I
mean
in
my
letter,
senator
I
sent
yesterday
now.
Basically,
inherently
rules
are
only
as
effective
as
they
are
if
they
can
be
enforced
with
punishments
that
are
felt,
I've
seen
fepc
violations
that
took
it
four
years
to
investigate,
which
is
inherently
not
that
great
of
a
punishment
or
deterrent
for
most
people.
AL
A
AS
V
Hey
I'd
like
to
concur
with
the
previous
speakers,
I
am
also
very
much
in
support
of
limits.
I
would
also
say
limit
any
sort
of
loan.
I
think
that
you
know
taking
on
debt
to
yourself.
That
then
can
be
reconciled
outside
of
the
campaign
cycle
is
shady
to
the
least
but
yeah
and
enforcement
is
very
important.
I
think
that
anything
here
needs
to
be
something
that
matters
if
you're
gonna
actually
try
to.
AD
V
Clean
fair
elections,
where
the
voters
know
who
they're
voting
for
and
why.
I
am
also
very
much
in
favor
of
transparency.
I
would
focus
more
on
money
and
interests
who
are
investing
in
candidates
that
can
provide
them
with
favorable
legislation
instead
of
active
community
groups
who
are
just
shipping
flyers.
But
thanks.
AX
A
Thank
you
see
no
other
members
of
the
public.
We
will
return
to
the
council
for
deliberation
and
action.
A
motion
is
an
order.
It's
not
a
study
session,
so
we
will
need
a
formal
motion
to
provide
direction
to
staff
and
when
appropriate,
staff.
If
you
wouldn't
mind
showing
that
the
screen
with
the
recommendations
that
might
be
helpful
council
member
lieber.
AR
AR
A
Okay,
so
that
would
be
for
the
staff
recommendation,
with
the
modifications
that
you
you've
made.
So
that's
the
reporting
mechanism
and
then
the
the
split
limit
500
for
candidates
who
do
not
accept
the
expenditure
limit
and
a
thousand
four
candidates
who
do
accept
the
expenditure
limit?
Yes,
okay,
thank
you.
Is
there
a
second
for
the
motion.
R
O
So
if
we
have
limits
that
are
different
from
the
states,
can
you
you
you
couldn't
turn
those
over
to
the
fppc
because
they
have
a
different
limit?
Is
that
right?
Or
can
you
turn
them
over
because
the
fppc
monitors
and
enforces
state
regulations,
our
city
staff
monitors
and
enforces
local
regulations?
O
What
I'm
saying
would
be
turned
over
to
the
fppc
are
the
non-candidate
committees
who
do
not
file,
and
that
comes
under
the
fppc,
because
they
are
required
by
the
fppc
to
file
with
the
local
filing
officer
who
in
our
case,
would
be
the
city
clerk,
and
so,
if
they
do
not
do
that,
I
don't
want
to
wait
for
the
fppc
to
go
through
thousands
and
thousands
of
committees
and
find
that
that
was
never
done.
I'd
rather
have
us
proactively.
O
O
But
I'm
sorry
if
I
can
trip
and
I
can't
figure
out
how
to
raise
my
hand,
I
apologize
if
I
can
address
council
member
matacek's
question.
Of
course,
thank
you
so
yeah.
I
think
that's
right.
I
think
that
if,
if
we're
reducing
the
threshold
for
what
would
qualify
as
a
committee
to
500,
it
would
be
the
city
to
enforce
if
a
committee
that
either
makes
those
expenditures
or
receives
contributions
of
that
amount,
we're
not
filing
required
committee
formation
paper.
You
know
documents
or
campaign
statements
with
the
city
clerk.
O
Like
council,
member
medic
or
sorry
interim
city
attorney,
did
you
want
to
speak
to
this?
I
just
had
a
question
for
heather
as
what
is
our
practice
when
we
find
that
they're
not
complying
with
the
state
state
law,
because
I
know
on
occasion
we
try
for
voluntary
compliance
and
if
we
don't
get
voluntary
compliance,
what
steps
do
we
take
right?
I
can't
speak
to
what
clerks
have
done
before
me,
but
my
practice
is
to
try
to
get
voluntary
compliance
to
try
and
contact
that
committee
in
a
variety
of
different
ways
and
document.
O
O
Council
number
to
check
did
you
have
any
also?
Can
I
just
get
clarification
on
what
councilmember
lieber's
motion
is
on
that
last
point?
Is
it
to
just
say
we're
turning
in
committees
to
the
fppc,
but
leaving
the
threshold
for
when
you
have
to
form
a
committee
at
the
state
level
because
we're
turning
them
into
the
fppc,
so
we're
not
reducing
it
to
5
000.
we're
leaving
it.
I'm
sorry
500
we're
leaving
it
at
2,
000.
O
O
I
I
think
what
councilman
ranacek
might
have
been
asking
is:
what
is
the
enforcement
or
mechanism
or,
if
you
violate
five,
the
third
point,
if
you
file
at
500,
but
because
that's
our
city's
requirement,
not
the
states,
the
state,
wouldn't
I
don't
think
necessarily
can
enforce
that.
So
is
there.
I
guess
we'd
have
to
talk
about
what
an
enforcement
mechanism
or
or
what
the
consequences
are
at
the
city
level.
If
you
don't
do
three,
is
that
right,
councilman,
I'm
ready
to
check
okay?
O
So
yes,
so
I
think
we
just
have
to
come,
and
you
know
I
I
could
I'm
open
to
just
us
asking
staff
to
come
back
with
some
options
on
how
we
could
enforce
the
third
point
at
the
city
level,
if
council
member
libra
you're
comfortable
with
that,
I
I
have
no
problem
with
it
through
the
chair.
If
I
may,
I
think
they're
separate
points,
because
what
I'm
talking
about
is
is
formed.
O
No,
I
just
wanted
to
clarify
quickly
with
interim
city
attorney
and
the
senior
assistant
city
attorney,
whether
or
not
0.5
was
0.3
was
meant
to
also
apply
to
candidate
controlled
or,
if
we're
just
considering
every
other
local
committee.
That's
not
candidate,
controlled,
yes,
and
I
can
I
can't
it's
to
non-candidate
controlled
committees,
so
every
other
local
committee.
O
Yeah
I
mean
going
back
kind
of
to
what
senior
assistant
city
attorney
wright
mentioned
before
you
know.
If
someone
isn't
filing
at
that
lower
threshold-
and
we
don't
know
about
it,
you
don't
know
what
you
don't
know.
So
you
know
if
I
had
knowledge
of
something,
then
that
would
be
one
thing
if
I
don't
have
any
knowledge
of
who
should
be
filing
at
that
lower
threshold,
that's
going
to
make
enforcement
regardless
of
what
enforcement.
O
O
Establish
limits
of
five
hundred
dollar
contributions
for
candidates
that
do
not
accept
the
voluntary
spending
limit
and
one
thousand
dollar
contribution
limits
for
candidates
who
do
accept
the
voluntary
spending
limit
and
then,
second,
that
we
direct
staff
to
return
with
an
ordinance
that
includes
the
recommended
campaign.
Disclosure
in
advertisements
ordinance
amendments.
O
O
Yes,
thank
you.
Okay,
great!
Thank
you.
Sorry.
I
couldn't
find
you
on
the
the
gallery.
Okay,
so
that's
the
motion.
Council
member
show
walter
yeah.
I
just
it
seems
like
what
we're
trying
to
do
is
obviously
get
this
lower
level
committee
to
be
more
transparent,
that's
a
great
thing,
but
if
we're
trying
to
be
more
transparent
at
the
high
end,
I
wonder
if
having
a
contribution
limit
is
kind
of
counterproductive
to
that,
because
it
seems
to
me
in
our
disclosure
ordinance.
O
If
you
have
you,
you
need
to
disclose
that
it's
it's
your
committee
and
who
are
the
top
donors
of
your
committee.
So
if
you
have
somebody
that's
given
over,
you
know
the
highest
amount
given
over
a
thousand
dollars.
That
person
comes
up
so
that
or
that
or
that
group
comes
up
so
that
adds
transparency
to
everything,
whereas
if
you
have
limits,
I
don't
think
you're
going
to
differentiate
the
donors
as
well.
O
So
I'm
wondering
if,
if
the
limits
for
the
you
know
that
for
the
candidates
who
do
accept,
the
the
voluntary
limit
are
are
going
to
accomplish
what
we're
we're
interested
in,
I
I
think
it
would
be
better
if
we,
if
we
just
went
with
the
state
limit,
but
I'm
sorry
it's
important
to
clarify
that
the
campaign
disclosure
in
advertised
advertisements
ordinance
does
not
apply
to
candidate-controlled
committees
and
the
contribution
limits
only
apply
to
candidate-controlled
committees.
So
so
there
are
different
regulations
for
different
campaign
committees.
O
O
I
think
defaulting
to
the
state
limit.
As
stated
in
assembly
bill
571
is
work
is
fine
with
me.
It
sounds
like
too
with
how
the
compliance
works.
It
would.
It
sounds
like
it
wouldn't
be
so
heavily
taxing
on
the
city
clerk's
office.
That's
that's
what
I'm
hearing
I
I
don't
know
if
that's
that's
correct,
but
I'm
comfortable
with
the
state
the
state
contribution
limit
and
I'm
comfortable
with
it,
because
the
city
of
mountain
view
already
has
a
voluntary
expenditure
limit
and
to
me
abiding
by
the
voluntary
expenditure
limit
kind
of
gets
to.
O
I
think
what
people's
concerns
are,
which
is
the
amount
of
money
that
can
go
into
a
campaign
to
if
there's
already
a
limit
set
on
how
much
you
can
spend
and
we're
going
to
be
adhering
to
the
state
contribution
limit.
You
know
I
I
would
say
in
a
city:
that's
nearly
90.
000
people
I
mean
I
just
feel
comfortable
with
it
so
I'll
be
stating
that
I
I
am
supportive
of
the
additional
item
that
was
added
about
independent
campaign
committee.
O
O
O
The
default
contribution
limits
are
a
little
high
san
jose
and
the
county
have
contribution
limits
that
are
lower
than
what
mountain
view
would
have.
If
we
adopted
the
default
limits-
and
I
it's
hard-
I
mean-
I
think,
that
you
know
valid
perspectives,
but
I
think
in
this
case
a
thousand
dollar
limit
in
mountain
view.
For
those
who
adhere
to
the
voluntary
expenditure
limit,
it
seems
reasonable,
and
what
about
the
split
approach?
Is
it
encourages
people
to
participate
in
the
voluntary
expenditure
limit?
Because
if
you
don't,
then
you
have
a
lower
contribution
limit.
O
O
I
mean
I
don't
know
if
we
have
the
history
for
this
mayor,
but
my
understanding
is
that,
at
least
in
recent
memory
memory
all
candidates
have
adhered
to
the
voluntary
expenditure
limit,
at
least
the
last
I
want
to
say
two
decades
is
my
understanding
of
what
I
can
remember.
So
you
know
I
think
again
my
my
point
being
less
about
the
actual
contribution
limit
than
the
actual
spending
within
the
campaign
which,
to
me
is
of
greater
concern.
O
O
Thank
you
any
other
questions,
final
comments.
If
not,
then
I'll
ask
the
city
clerk
to
commence
the
roll
call
councilmember
lieber,
yes,
councilmember
abby
koga,
my
councilmember
kame,
oh
councilmember,
mata
check
no
councilman,
rachel
walter,
no
vice
mayor
hicks,
yes,
mayor,
ramirez
yeah
motion
carries
4-3.
O
Thank
you
very
much,
then
we'll
move
now
to
item
9,
a
council
staff
committee
report,
I'm
sorry,
I'm
robbie
cook
and
sorry.
I
actually
had
one
a
question
related
to
the
the
earlier
item.
I
I
know
like
before
elections
we
usually
have
like
a
review
of
all
of
our
campaign
rules
and
whatnot,
and
I
wanted
to
ask
the
interim
city
attorney
if
there
were
some
other
items
that
will
be
returning
to
us.
One
thing
I
can
think
of
is
like
the
the
sign,
the
public
lots
where
signs
have
gone.
O
O
There
is
a
clear
majority
to
provide
that
direction.
Any
other
council
or
committee
reports.
The
member
met
a
check
thanks
I'll
just
report
that
I
participated
in
another
airport,
land
use
commission
meeting,
and
we
had
a
council
finance
committee
meeting
where
we
talked
about
the
contract
with
our
auditor
right.
I
think
that
comes
to
council
right
after
the
cf
saver.
Okay,
thanks.
O
Thank
you
announce
the
member
robbie.
Thank
you
mayor.
The
county's
hate
crimes
task
force
met
last
week.
You
probably
have
heard
that
they
have
their
final
report
out
happy
to
send
that
to
everyone.
If
you
haven't
seen
it
yet.
I
hope
that
we
will
have
a
chance
to
go
over
it,
perhaps
through
our
ad
hoc
committee
on
race,
equity
and
inclusion,
and
then
I
also
wanted
to
request
that
council
pass
a
resolution
or
take
up
a
resolution.
O
Speaking
out
against
anti-semitic
activity
and
sentiment,
as
you
may
have
read
in
the
newspaper,
our
neighboring
city
had
neighborhoods
flyered
with
anti-semitic
hate
leaflets
and
it's
it's
not
it's
going
around
quite
a
of
quite
a
few
communities
around
us.
We've
done.
You
know
a
resolution
against
anti-asian
hate
and
also
did
a
black
lives
matter
resolution,
and
so
I
would
like
to
ask
if
we
could
do
one
denouncing
anti-semitic
activity
and
sentiment
I'll
turn
to
the
city
clerk.
I
believe
we
have
one
in
the
works,
but
don't
remember
which
month.
O
In
may
okay,
so
it's
it's
in
the
in
the
queue,
but
is
that
is
that
okay,
I
I
would,
if
it's
possible-
and
I
have
language
and
I'm
happy
to
you-
know
forward
if
that
would
help
to
I'd
like
to
do
it
sooner
than
later.
Since
this
is
happening
now,
I
think
waiting
until
may
might
just
it
just
you
know
is
a
little
late
for
me.
O
So
I'm
happy
to
help
yeah
draft
the
language.
If
that
would
help
move
it
along
more
quickly,
okay,
staffs
do!
Would
you
like
direction
or
could?
Could
you
without
an
explicit
vote,
try
and
bring
it
a
little
bit
sooner
yeah?
We
can
look
at
bringing
it
sooner
as
their
date
that
you
were
targeting.
That
would
be
helpful.
O
O
If
not,
then
we'll
proceed
to
item
10
interim
city
attorney
quinn.
Do
you
have
a
closed
session
report
on
further
reflection?
I
do
have
a
closed
session
report
this
evening.
