D
C
And
Rhonda
Hart
and
Dale
cook
staff
Eleison
beautifulest,
so
we
have
a
full
house.
Thank
you
and
congratulations
everybody.
This
is
great.
So
now
we
move
into
public
comments.
So
any
person
who
wishes
to
speak
on
a
topic
within
the
city's
jurisdiction
during
this
portion
of
the
agenda
must
file
the
speaker
card
with
the
staff
liaison
before
that
portion
of
the
agenda
is
called.
Three
minutes
are
allocated
per
speaker.
C
Although
the
Commission
values
comments
pursuant
to
the
Brown
Act,
it
generally
cannot
take
any
action
on
items
not
listed
on
the
posted
agenda.
Commissioners
lamont
not
enter
into
discussion
with
speakers,
but
during
Commission
comments
may
refer
the
matter
to
staff
for
report
and
recommendation
at
a
future
Commission
meeting
and
so
far
we've
got
three
speakers.
First
up
as
Suzanne
Severn.
F
Hello,
distinguished
Commission,
I'm,
very
happy
to
be
here
today
and
I'm,
actually
here
as
a
member
of
the
Harvey
Milk
Diversity
breakfast
coalition
and
as
a
resident
of
Palm
Springs,
and
as
a
member
of
that
breakfast
committee
I'd
like
to
thank
you
very
much
for
your
participation
last
month
in
the
breakfast,
it
was
I
think.
By
far
our
most
successful,
we
had
almost
a
thousand
people
at
the
convention.
Center
were
bursting
at
the
seams
for
next
year.
F
So
thank
you
for
your
support,
but
as
a
resident,
I
also
want
to
say
to
you
that
it
was
I
was
very
proud
to
see
you.
There
I
think
it's
important
that,
though
the
work
that
you
do,
that
the
community
sees
you
in
at
events
like
that
it
was
very
meaningful
to
me
to
have
my
human
rights
commission
at
an
important
event
that
supports
and
educates
the
public
on
civil
rights.
So
thank
you
and
thank
you
vice
chair
Chappell,
for
your
involvement
and
I
hope.
We
see
you
next
year.
Thank
you.
Excellent.
J
My
husband
and
I
just
completed
a
7,000
mile
driving
trip
across
the
country
and
on
more
than
one
occasion
we
thought
about
you
and
one
particular
event
was
brought
to
our
attention
when
we
came
out
of
the
Dallas
Art
Museum
and
there
was
a
large
park
and
there
was
this
cacophony
that
draw
drew
our
attention
to
the
park
and
we
got
over
there
and
it
was
an
event
called
the
valley
in
the
park
valley.
It
was
a
nickname
for
volunteers.
J
There
were
75
organizations
brought
together
by
the
volunteer
now
organization,
and
it
was
any
organization
that
you
could
think
of
that
was
meeting
volunteers
and
they
walked
around
from
booth
to
booth
to
booth,
and
each
organization
was
explaining
what
their
purpose
was
and
afforded
you
free
gifts.
If
you
were
willing
to
sign
up
or
cold
water
which
you
needed,
it
was
104
degrees
and
204
percent
humidity
and
we
walked
around
and
it
was
just
absolutely
an
incredible
experience.
J
75
different
organizations
ran
the
gamut
of
everything
from
tutoring
to
assisted
facilities,
HIV
awareness
the
whole
bit
like
that.
We
finished
and
we
started
walking
away
and
I
said
to
Paul
I
said
this
is
something
Human
Rights
Commission
in
in
Palm
Springs
could
do
I
grabbed
this
brochure,
and
this
is
all
I
had
to
bring
back
to
you
other
than
what's
in
my
head
and
I
would
encourage
you
to
explore
doing
something
like
this.
J
C
A
K
K
Dependent
seniors
need,
is
a
safe
and
healthy
environment
and
secondhand
smoke
is
a
real
threat,
not
just
the
obvious
that
people,
think
of
which
is
cancer,
but
secondhand
smoke
can
cause
strokes
and
heart
attacks
instant
onset,
especially
in
people
who
have
reduced
immune
systems,
which
is
also
common
among
elderly,
as
well
as
the
very
young.
So
I'd
like
you
to
consider
that
component.
Also
to
your
seniors,
Bill
of
Rights
and
I,
look
forward
to.
C
L
So
every
chapter
around
the
United
States
does
some
project
related
to
Harvey
Milk
day.
In
our
case,
it
was
the
Harvey
Milk,
diversity
breakfast.
So
that
was
our
first
project
and
we
had
a
number
of
volunteers,
help
with
both
the
setup
and
teardown
of
that
event,
and
the
reason
I'm
coming
you
today
is
to
bring
this
all
back
to
your
support
of
the
Harvey
Milk
diversity.
L
Breakfast
I
think
it's
very
important
when
I
look
at
your
mission
to
promote
and
protect
the
diversity
and
to
improve
human
relations
through
education
and
community
awareness,
I
I
really
can't
think
of
anything
that
does
a
better
job
than
then
bringing
these
students
together.
These
students
that
have
been
ostracized
in
their
schools
and
in
their
personal
lives.
L
Many
can't
even
be
shown
in
photographs
in
social
media
posts
because
they
may
get
in
trouble
with
their
parents
or
with
family
members
or
with
other
students
and
so
bringing
these
students
together
for
the
Harvey
Milk
diversity
breakfast
is
I,
think
really
an
important
step
for
them.
That
really
gives
them
a
sense
of
the
place
in
history
that
Harvey
Milk
had,
but
also
it
gives
them
hope
in
terms
of
where
they
can
see
themselves
in
the
future.
L
Every
year
we
have
just
wonderful
speakers,
people
who
have
done
great
things
in
the
LGBTQ
community
and
so
I
think
it's
just
important
that
that
that
your
support
continue
for
the
Harvey
Milk
diversity.
Breakfast
I
wanted
to
say
thank
you
for
that,
and
and
thanks
for
all
that,
you
do
for
Human,
Rights
and
Palm
Springs
excellent.
C
E
H
You
know
I
just
want
to
maybe
put
it
out
there
that
we've
had
these
gentlemen
come
and
speak
about
the
smoking
for
quite
a
few
of
our
Commission
meetings.
I
just
want
to
know
what
we
are
able
to
do.
As
far
as
I
know,
we
can
present
legislation
to
the
City
Council,
but
it
seems
to
be
a
consistent
theme.
Is
there
something
that
we
should
be
doing?
H
I
mean
what
kind
of
support
I
feel
bad
that
we
sit
here
and
we
listen,
but
we
don't
necessarily
have
the
resources
or
there's
not
a
certain
I
mean
I,
know
we're
talking
about
table
talk
and
getting
ideas
and
feedback
from
the
community.
I
just
feel
bad
that
we're
not
acting
we're
just
listening,
but
we're
not
acting
there's
something
that
we
should
be
doing.
You.
C
Know
and
I
think
this
is
the
second
time
that
we've
had
the
comments
at
the
Commission
meeting
right
so
I
think
now
that
there's
a
ad
hoc
committee
that
has
been
formed
at
council
level,
perhaps
somebody
from
our
Commission
might
want
to
be
a
liaison
to
that
committee
and
reach
out
to
is
a
council
member
cores
and
holstege
so
they're
there,
the
council
members
assigned
to
that
committee.
So
if
we
have
a
liaison
to
that
committee,
we
can
learn
what's
happening
at
the
council
level
and
figure
out
what
what
else
can
we
do
to
assist?
C
A
M
Yeah
I
actually
do
have
a
comment
today.
I
wanted
to
wish
everybody
a
happy
Pride
Month.
We
we
celebrate
pride
here
because
it's
in
November
that
stone
wall
was
occurred
in
June
and
gosh.
Nobody
would
come
in
106
degree
weather,
so
that
totally
makes
sense.
But
I
wanted
to
wish
everybody
here
and
in
the
community
a
happy
Pride
Month.
M
Don't
I
think
that
if
you
would
have
asked
me,
then
if
we
would
so
many
years
later
be
able
to
legally
marry
in
the
United
States,
if
we
would
have
gay
and
lesbian
elected
officials
at
the
local
state
and
national
level,
and
that
we
would
have
a
number
of
different
journalists
who
were
on
TV
that
we
could
actually
choose
from
to
watch.
I
think
I
would
have
said
probably
yeah,
but
that
wasn't
our
fight.
M
Then
our
fight
was
to
gain
equality
and
I
think
that
fight
still
continues
and
I
think
that
that
I,
in
addition
to
all
the
things
that
we've
accomplished,
that
my
community,
our
community,
has
accomplished
that
there
is
still
much
more
to
go.
Integration
is
always
good
and
segregation
is
never
bad.
I
think
that
as
we
move,
though,
towards
becoming
integrated
and
at
the
larger
community
that
we
that
we
don't
want
to
lose
sight
of
who
we
are
and
where
we
came
from
and
I
think
that
Commissioner
Randolph
will
be
speaking
on
that
later
today.
M
M
Just
think
that
the
more
that
we
are
out
there
and
the
more
that
we
engage
with
people
and
show
them
who
we
really
are,
that
we
will
that
things
will
just
become
better
for
us
in
the
future
and
I
was
fortunate
enough.
One
more
comment:
I
was
fortunate
enough
to
teach
a
high
school
class
in
San
Diego,
public
speaking,
which
is
what
I
do
this
last
semester
and
I
have
to
tell
you
that
just
teaching
those
folks
they
were
brilliant,
generous
bright.
M
It
was
my
pleasure
and
honor
to
do
that
to
help
them
find
their
voice
in
society,
so
I
and
and
that
experience
really
helped
me
come
out
of
that
experience
with
that
with
the
real
sense
that
that
we're
gonna
be
taking
well
care.
We're
gonna
be
well
taken
care
about
the
next
generation,
the
generation
after
our
is
to
15
and
16
year
olds.
C
C
I
Well,
I
think
I
have
one
thing:
that's
worth
adding
to
this
party
of
for
pride
bar
a
Pride
Month
I
spent
Sunday
with
a
lot
of
the
kids
there
that
were
at
the
Harvey
Milk
breakfast,
not
all
of
them,
but
a
good
portion
of
them
who
are
moving
into
leadership
positions
at
their
various
GSA's.
This
is
the
safe
school
leadership
camp
that
summer
and
boy.
The
inspiration
things
you
just
talked
about
is
definitely
there.
I
I
I
Specifically
I
noticed
in
some
of
the
younger
kids,
who
I
thought
the
kids
are
graduating
and
moving
on
to
the
next
chapter,
be
at
higher
education
where,
but
the
other
half
are,
are
still
coming
through
and
there's
definitely
could
feel
that
kind
of
you
know
kind
of
overwhelm
so
I
just
want
to
underscore
that.
But
the
good
news
is
is
that
I
do
think,
fortunately,
for
our
community
here
through
our
various
organizations,
pride
Safe,
Schools,
the
center,
the
AP
and,
of
course,
I'm,
probably
forgetting
most
of
them.
I
hope.
I
Those
are
the
ones
that
come
to
mind.
Is
we're
doing
a
good
job
of
that.
But
I
think
there
is
something
there
thei
matically.
We
will
want
to
look
keep
in
the
back
of
our
minds
as
we
go
through
this
year,
and
that
is
the
safety
factor,
and
certainly
you
know
we.
We
saw
that
with
the
March
here
in
Palm
Springs,
how
top
of
mind
and
I
we're
gonna.
I
I
D
Thank
You
mr.
chairman,
a
couple
look
first,
so
thank
you
to
the
two
commissioners
for
making
those
comments.
I
think
it's
very
important
and
I
also
look
forward
to
as
my
new
role
here
on
the
Commission
finding
some
students
again
with
Commissioner
Morgan
and
others
to
get
involved
so
that
we
can
provide
some
mentorship
and
engagement
to
them
and
we
can
learn
from
them
as
well.
D
Are
we
able
to
edit
and
revise
this
slightly
to
maybe
add
some
more
to
it
as
I've
been
sitting
here
for
the
last
few
months
at
these
meetings,
I've
looked
at
it
a
lot
and
I've
thought
about
the
work
that
we're
doing
and
that
we
aspire
to
do
and
I
think
that
we
might
have
an
opportunity
to
add
a
couple
of
words
that
might
just
give
it
a
little
bit
more
impact
based
on
what
we're
trying
to
do.
I
can't.
C
N
C
Beautiful
and
to
echo
further
echo,
the
comments
that
have
been
shared
I
think
it's
also
important
to
acknowledge
that
beyond
the
LGBT
community,
specifically
we've
we've
got
to
work
in
tandem
and
recognize
the
diversity
in
our
community
and
the
allies
that
are
there
specifically
during
Pride
Month
to
recognize
the
allies
that
are
supportive
of
LGBT
movement
and
equality
for
all
individuals
and
all
citizens
within
the
city.
So
we
want
to
recognize
and
say
cheers
and
thank
you
to
those
strong,
strong
allies
that
stand
up
and
have
a
voice
in
our
community.
C
Dale
had
mentioned
the
retreat
we
at
the
last
meeting.
We
suggested
that
maybe
we
don't
do
the
retreat
until
the
new
commissioners
come
on
board.
Council
has
voted
to
extend
all
commissioner
terms
until
the
end
of
December.
So
that
means
we
won't
have
anybody
coming
on
board
until
January
or
February.
C
So
we
can
either
find
another
meeting
place
or
cancel
our
July
meeting
and
in
turn
have
our
retreat,
which
doesn't
have
to
be
televised
and
wouldn't
need
to
be
in
this
room.
We
can
find
any
place
to
do
that
and
if
there's
no,
we
don't
have
any
pressing
items
in
our
agenda
for
July.
It
may
be
a
good
time
since
it's
already
on
everybody's
calendar
to
hold
that
July
meeting
date
as
our
retreat
date.
Any
thoughts
are.
H
I
M
A
I
found
our
retreat
the
last
time
we
had
first
of
all,
rather
short
and
second
of
all
kind
of
sterile
because
it
was
I
think
it
was
here.
Was
it
here,
someplace,
not
fun,
and
so,
if
it's
appropriate,
I
offer
my
home.
If
you
I
can
fit
nine
or
ten
people
in
there
and
it's
comfortable.
So
if
that's
appropriate,
I
offer
that
and.
N
B
Even
though
and
I
mean
this
is
discussion,
you
probably
should
have
later,
but
it
you
may
cancel
your
meeting,
but
it
should
still
be
accessible
for
the
general
public.
So
in
a
private
home
it
leaves
some
limitations.
So
we
can
look
at
scheduling
and
survey
the
membership
to
see
what
is
best
and
maybe
have
the
subcommittee
work
on
the
type
of
agenda
yeah.
B
C
Everybody
in
agreement
with
that
so
we'll
pick
a
date
in
July,
so
we'll
work
on
getting
the
date
and
move
forward
on
the
other
specifics.
Okay,
beautiful
the
other
items
is
thank
you
to
our
Vice
Chair
Chappell
for
her
role
in
the
Harvey
Milk
breakfast
and
representing
the
Human
Rights
Commission.
At
that
on
that
platform,
it's
a
great
way
to
make
great
visibility
for
the
Commission
and
I
appreciate
your
willingness
to
to
be
there
and
be
a
part
of
it.
So
thank
you
and
to
the
commissioners
who
were
able
to
attend.
C
Thank
you
for
taking
part
and
Dale.
Thank
you
for
being
there.
It
was
great
to
see
the
representation
last
item,
for
me
is
a
new
Community.
Leadership
Council
has
formed
and
met
for
the
first
time.
Last
month,
forty
people
in
attendance
representing
28
different
organizations,
so
it's
a
great
first
meeting
for
our
community
to
bring
together
our
nonprofit
organizations
to
address
common
common
goals
and
issues
and
raise
awareness
for
the
challenges
that
individual
organizations
may
be
facing
in
the
community.
So
it
it's
nice
to
see.
I
C
It's
the
canoe,
the
conveners,
our
Desert
Business
Association
and
Palm
Springs
pride.
They
were
just
the
convenient
organizations,
but
the
the
point
of
the
Leadership
Council
is.
It
is
a
Council
of
all
nonprofit
organizations
who
want
to
participate
it
just
just
so
happens.
The
convene
your
conveners,
where
the
desert
Business
Association
and
pride
yeah
I'm
glad
happening
yeah
beautiful.
Okay,
that's
it
for
me
and
comments.
So
now
we've
got
to
move
into
yes,
Oh
J,
I'm.
Sorry,
welcome,
J
appreciate
you
me.
O
I
just
wanted
to
let
everyone
know
that
at
the
last
council
meeting
the
City
Council
approved
opting
for
the
100%
carbon
free
energy
option
for
desert
city's
energy,
which
is
part
of
the
new
community
choice.
Aggregation,
that's
going
to
be
rolled
out
in
August,
so
that's
coming
our
way,
and
the
second
item
is
that
Commissioner
holstege
who
councilmember
holstege,
who
attended
the
Harvey
Milk
breakfast,
was
very
appreciative
and
a
little
distraught
that
it
ate
up
half
the
Commission's
budget.
So
something
to
think
about
and.
C
C
Okay,
sorry
about
that.
Now
we
can
go
on
to
item
5,
Oh
items,
6
presentations
in
our
community
recognition,
so
to
continue
our
work
and
in
recognizing
folks
in
the
community
on
an
ongoing
basis,
and
not
just
once
a
year
in
February,
when
we
have
our
community
awards
in
the
council
chambers
we've,
we
just.
We
had
set
out
to
recognize
students
who
were
involved
in
the
March
for
our
lives
rally
that
took
place
on
March
24th
across
the
country
around
to
actually
around
the
world.
So
the
Commission
today
would
like
to
continue
that
recognition.
C
We've
got
two
more
students
with
us
to
recognize
for
their
involvement.
So
we
would
like
to
thank
two
student
organizers,
Melina
solace
and
Jack
Weaver,
both
from
Palm
Springs
High
School,
who
are
with
us
with
their
parents
today
and
they
are
both
or
organizers
who
participated
with
others
and
putting
together
the
rally
and
protests
that
took
place
in
Palm
Springs.
C
We're
excited
about
the
leadership
that
they
displayed
and
their
ability
to
to
work
toward
creating
a
platform
to
have
the
youth
voice
be
heard
and
recognized
in
the
community.
So
their
actions
and
leadership
have
elevated
gun
control
as
a
key
issue
and
they've
inspired
a
generation
of
peers
to
register
and
to
vote.
The
students
brought
great
credit
to
the
youth
in
our
community
to
the
Palm
Springs
High
School,
and
to
the
city
of
Palm
Springs.
C
So
today
the
Human
Rights
Commission
will
be
presenting
a
special
accommodation
to
both
milena
and
Jack
and
we'll
have
and
a
special
certificate
of
recognition
from
the
City
Council
signed
by
Jeff
course.
Councilmember
Coors,
so
we'll
have
a
photograph
and
then
we'll
ask
both.
Students
they'll
have
an
opportunity
to
make
a
few
comments
if
they
like,
but
we'll
break
real
quick.
So
we
can
take
a
photograph
and
presentation
of
the
plaques.
F
All
right,
I'd
like
to
thank
the
Commission
for
recognizing
us,
because
I
think
it
is
very
important
to
acknowledge
the
fact
that
there
are
younger
leaders
trying
to
make
a
difference
in
the
world
even
before
we
are
able
to
vote.
This
was
how
we
were
able
to
have
our
voices
heard
and
to
get
middle
school
students,
students
all
across
the
valley
and
through
social
media,
that
we
have
students
across
the
globe
to
participate
in
politics
before
we
can
legally
change
things
with
a
vote.
So
I'd
like
to
thank
you
guys
for
this
opportunity,
beautiful.
F
I
would
like
to
echo
what
she
said
and
thank
you
all
for
recognizing
the
both
of
us,
and
it
was
a
really
amazing
experience
to
be
involved
in
such
a
movement
and
to
be
at
the
forefront
of
it
and
I
think
that
this
is
a
really
important
and
could
be
a
changing
time
if
we
continue
to
press
forward
so
I
hope
we
continue
to
do
so
and
I
hope
the
Human
Rights
Commission
helps
in
that
effort,
and
thank
you
for
having
here
beautiful.
Thank
you.
C
C
C
And
now
we
go
on
or
we
move
into
item
number
seven,
our
guest
speaker,
who
is
with
us
today
continuing
our
series
of
community
stakeholders
presenting
information
and
briefing
the
Commission
as
we
move
our
move
down
the
road
to
putting
together
a
proposal
or
comments,
suggestion
to
City
Council
for
whether
it's
a
senior
Bill
of
Rights
policy
or
ordinance,
whatever
we
may
be
doing
so.
We
welcome
the
CEO
of
Jewish
Family
Service
of
the
desert,
Marine
Forman,
so
welcome
marine.
Thank.
P
Regarding
the
senior
Bill
of
Rights,
that's
the
first
thing
that
just
pops
into
my
head
to
make.
You
say
that
that
is
one
of
our
largest
focuses
at
JFS.
We
are
going
to
see
over
1,000
low-income
seniors
at
risk
for
homelessness
before
the
end
of
this
fiscal
year,
thanks
to
city
of
Palm
Springs,
for
helping
us
with
that.
Other
funders
help
us
with
that
about.
A
third
of
them
are
in
Palm
Springs,
sometimes
up
to
40,
depending
on
which
year
we
have
had
couples
living.
P
We
had
two
gentlemen
who
had
been
married
for
20
years
living
in
their
car
and
we
helped
them
find
housing.
We
had
a
married
couple.
Both
of
them
were
sleeping
in
tents
out
in
Desert,
Hot
Springs
and
got
shot
by
gang
members
to
women.
So
the
reason
I'm
telling
these
sort
of
like
I
poppin
stories
is
that
the
low
income
we
are
one
of
first
of
all,
the
high
senior
populations
in
the
state
we
are,
we
are
48%
seniors.
The
rest
of
the
state
is
33
huge
difference.
P
P
They
are
everywhere
they
are
in
every
city,
they
are
Latino,
they
are
black,
they
are
white,
they
are
Jewish,
they
are
gay.
They
are
straight
so
part
of
what
our
biggest
thrust
has
been
and
I
gave
you
a
little
packet
of
things
that
I
put
together,
but
we
put
together
the
senior
collaborative,
because
we
realized
that
there
are
so
many
agencies
down
here
that
work
with
seniors
and
that
the
poor
senior
is
given
a
list
of
agencies
to
call
when
they
need
help.
P
Well,
that
won't
do
because
they're
in
stress-
and
they
don't
have
time
to
call
10
agencies,
so
our
senior
collaborative
meets
every
month
we've
been
meeting
for
two
years.
The
list
this
is
expanded.
We
actually
have
more
people
on
it.
Now
we
put
together
an
Excel
spreadsheet
every
month
our
liaison
does
of
who's
got
money
for
rent
who's,
got
money
for
electricity,
who's
got
money
for
whatever
we
need,
so
that
we
can.
P
We
call
it
no
wrong
door,
no
matter
who
the
senior
calls
they're
gonna,
get
to
somebody
and
say:
oh
yeah,
JFS,
has
it
Salvation
Army
has
it
could
be?
You
know,
Catholic
Charities.
Has
it
senior
advocates
of
the
desert,
so
the
reason
we're
doing
that
is
because
we're
long
past
the
point
where
individual
nonprofits
can
be
the
senior
nonprofit
down
here
that
just
can't
continue
and
I'm
very
biased.
P
Things
like
that,
but
I
really
think
that
emergency
funding
is
I,
don't
want
to
say
it's
like
FEMA,
but
it
kind
of
is
it
like
needs
to
be
part
of
some
sort
of
city
budget.
That's
like
really
built
in
I
guess
the
other
piece
about
seniors
that
we
see
is
that
the
low-income
housing
there's
a
two-year
wait
for
most
of
it.
P
You
can't
wait
two
years
if
you're
living
in
your
car,
pathol,
Life
Ministries
is
doing
a
fabulous
job
working
with
seabag
to
get
people
in
this
shelter,
but
there's
this
weird
gap
where
we
know
what
do
you
do
in
this?
In
this
in-between
thing?
One
of
the
ways
we
fill
the
gap
JFS
focuses
on
preventing
senior
homelessness
to
begin
with
and
what
we
do
through
every
we
have
socialization
programs
in
seven
locations
and
we
go
all
over
the
place
talking
about
everything
all
the
time
and
one
of
the
things
we
say
is
to
the
landlords.
P
Please
don't
let
them
get
to
eviction.
Please
give
them
our
number.
Please
give
them
our
number,
because
once
they're
at
eviction
a
couple
of
things
happen,
legal
fees
are
getting
slapped
on
and
we
had
a
woman
who
got
a
200
legal
fee
and
then
a
three
hundred
legal
fee.
She
only
made
11
hundred
a
month.
How
is
she
ever
going
to
get
out
of.
C
P
Okay
and
those
are
at
subsidized
housing
down
here,
so
in
terms
of
a
human
Bill
of
Rights,
we
would
love
to
see
some
sort
of
legislation
that
says
hey.
If
you
are
receiving
funds
from
either
the
city,
the
county
of
the
state,
you
don't
get
to
slap
legal
funds
on
a
low-income
senior
without
some
sort
of
process
there,
because
they
get
so
buried.
They
can't
get
out.
P
A
P
Springs
High
Cathedral
City
High
and
we're
looking
at
Rancho
Mirage
well
right
now
they
are
helping
us
over
the
summer
to
run
our
socialization
programs
to
get
their
community
service
hours.
Why
they're
gonna
see
low-income,
fixed
seniors,
they're
gonna,
learn
about
a
geriatric
depression
scale:
they're
gonna
learn
about
a
behavioral
health
career,
so
it
just
has
a
full
range
of
services.
P
So
what
we're
trying
to
do
trying
to
do
is
really
build
that
intergenerational
compassion
between
the
younger
generation
and
the
seniors,
because
the
seniors
become
invisible,
they
lose
their
ability
to
drive
and
they're
in
their
little
apartments,
and
that's
it.
Nobody
even
knows
they're
there.
So
we
are
going
to
expand
that
as
rapidly
as
possible
to
get
our
young
folks
interested
in
that.
So
those
are
the
things
I
really
wanted
to.
Let
you
know
about,
please
call
us
at
Dale.
P
P
So,
for
example,
mm-hmm
there
are
certain
low-income
senior
some
some
apartment
complexes
are
terrific.
Some
are
some
are
owned
by
larger
corporations
in
Orange
County,
and
they
just
have
a
legal
thing
that
they
start
so
you're
three
days
late,
there's
a
late
fee,
you're
five
days
late.
They
start
legal
proceedings.
Well,
the
senior
pays
for
the
legal
proceedings.
They
start
billing
the
senior
well
on
fixed
income.
They
can't
they
can't
ever
catch
up,
so
we're
helping
them
trying
to
do
so.
Willy
we're
either
gonna.
P
So
what
we'll
do,
for
instance,
is
call
them
and
say,
stop,
stop.
Stop!
Don't
do
that.
We're
gonna
help
them
we're
gonna,
get
them
this
month
that
we're
gonna
get
their
utility
or
whatever
don't
start
the
legal
phase,
so
I
think
that
on
fixed
income,
a
lot
of
these
apartments
and
I
wish
I
knew
more
about
it,
but
I
don't
receive
funding
County
funding
they
received
federal
funding.
They
should
not
be
able
to
just
slap
500
fees
on
a
low-income
senior
without
letting
someone
know.
P
G
P
For
example,
you
have
someone
who
has
like
a
$900
a
month,
the
Social
Security
check.
They
have
you
know,
270
or
300
month's
rent
they'll
get
a
medication
that
isn't
on
their
formulary,
because
their
Medicare
Advantage
plan
changed
the
formulary.
They
can
change
it
every
month
if
they
want,
but
the
senior
only
can
change
insurance
once
a
year,
so,
for
instance,
they'll
get
in
a
medication
they
can't
afford
they
will
their
car
will
break
down?
It's
an
expense
that
they
didn't
respect,
expect
their
refrigerator
breaks.
So
there's
no
wiggle
room
when
an
expense
comes
up.
P
P
Usually
a
one
time:
if
it's
not
a
one
time,
then
what
we
do
is
we
work
with
them
budgeting
to
say:
okay,
even
this
low
income,
you
really
can't
even
afford
this
okay.
So
what
do
we
do?
You
know
we
can
put
you
on
snap.
We
can
get
you
on
the
cares
program.
We
can
get
you
sometimes
they're.
Still
on
a
PPO
insurance.
We'll
talk,
you
know
say
talk
to
them
about
an
HMO
that'll,
save
you
some
money.
So.
P
M
We
might
want
to
include
that
that
there
needs
to
be
some
sort
of
guidance
or
advocacy
on
behalf
of
seniors
who
want
to
access
the
services
that
are
out
there,
but
but
for
one
reason
or
another,
can't
call
ten
or
fifteen
different
agencies.
So
we
might
be.
That
is
an
area
that
we
might
be
able
to
be
instrumental
in
whatever
we
recommend
to
the
City
Council.
We
should
consider
that
particular
portion
as
we
move
forward
I
think.
F
E
E
G
P
Know
part
of
what
we
always
talk
about
is
that
if
we
see
it
as
a
public
health
issue,
it's
really
a
public
health
issue.
In
other
words,
you've
got
vulnerable
seniors,
who
are
either
physically
ill
or
losing
their
cognitive
abilities,
and
if
it
were
typhoid
or
scarlet
fever,
they'd
be
all
out
there
trying
to
find
them.
And
the
problem
is,
you
know
the
whatever
the
silver
tsunami
thing
that
there's
so
many
of
the
baby
boomers
who
are
aging
into
poverty.
P
P
They
have
any
own
support
services
through
the
county,
but
by
the
time
you
get
on
there
you
know,
but
the
old-fashioned
you
know,
visiting
social
worker
visiting
nurse
II
kind,
I
mean
I
hate
to
call
up
the
UK
or
England,
but
they
they
have
that
type
of
system.
Where
you
get
visits
when
you're
certain
to
make
sure
you're.
Okay,.
P
I
Just
had
a
brief
supporting
comment,
because
I'm
real
I
think
we're
all
really
sensitive
to
it,
given
the
topic
of
suicide
being
so
much
in
the
culture.
The
other
thing
in
my
much
more
limited
experience
than
yours
with
senior
community
but
often
times
well,
it's
been
in
the
press.
Lot
loneliness
may
may
be
the
biggest
culprit
in
terms
of
debilitating
seniors
it
saps
from
what
I'm,
understanding
and
I'm
glad
see
nodding,
I'm
getting
good
information,
but
it
really
restricts
their
ability
to.
P
I
I
E
Lansing
yeah
yeah
yeah
and
also
addressing
the
the
depression
and
there's
also
with
eye
diseases.
You
have
this
thing
called
Charles
bonnet
syndrome
and
I
have
so
many
cases,
and
you
know
our
police
was
not
educated
with
the
mental
health
part
of
it
where,
when
you're,
you
know,
your
brain
is
not
at
sync
with
your
eyes.
So
you
start
hallucinating
and.
A
E
C
P
Map,
50
million,
don't
know
yeah,
20
I,
don't
I,
don't
know
we
work
with
the
CDBG
grant
on
such
I.
Don't
want
to
say
small
levels
because
we're
extremely
grateful,
but
it.
P
If
you
wanted
to
figure
the
age
of
population
of
times
two
hundred
and
fifty
dollars,
or
you
know
what
that
amount
would
look
like
I,
don't
know
that
I
haven't
done
that
math,
but
I
know
we
as
one
agency
a
gay.
It's
we're
at
63
thousand
right
now
in
one
fiscal
year
so
and
we're
one
agency,
and
you
know
Chris
O'hanlon,
he
does
it
office
on
Aging.
Does
it
I
mean
it's?
You
know
so
I
mean
I
think
it
might
be
interesting.
C
P
Well,
sometimes
it's
because
we
have
we've
already
helped
them
and
we
had.
We
can
only
help
them
once
a
year
or
otherwise
we
would
burn
through
it
all
much
faster,
so
they
can
get
turned
away
for
that
they
can
get
turned
away.
I,
don't
think
many
do,
because
we
refer
them
to
other
people
who
can
help
them,
but
like
a
lot
of
our
passed
through,
grants
will
be
primarily
for
seniors
and
only
10%
can
be
below
55,
and
so
we'll
have
to
just
use
that
10
person.
P
So
it
depends
which
grant
we
have
all
these
different
grants
and
those
matrix
of
who
can
get
what
out
of
what
grant
and
I
don't
think
it's
a
large
I
I
would
say
it's
less
than
probably
5%
that
we
that
we
turn
away.
We
try
not
to
turn
away
any
because
we
also
have
our
fund
raising.
That's
not
what
we
call
our
general
that
we
take
out
of
our
fund
raising
and
if
they
don't
fit
in
any
category,
they
go.
They
go
there.
Mm-Hmm.
C
P
P
What
we're
doing
is,
rather
than
having
our
volunteer.
Our
older
volunteers
run
those
programs.
We
are
recruiting
younger
volunteers
from
the
high
school
who
need
their
community
service
hours.
It
does
two
thing:
I'm,
not
I'm,
on
the
behavioral
health
team
alignment
team
with
one
future
Coachella
Valley
of
trying
to
train
therapists,
which
is
another
thing
we
need
down
here.
So
what
we're
trying
to
figure
out
is
how
do
people
even
know
what
what
the
problems
are
down
here
if
the
high
school
students
don't
see
them?
P
A
P
Is
a
first
summer
that
we're
gonna,
Palm
Springs
and
we're
going
to
have
Cathedral
City
running
to
I
mean
we've
obviously
will
be
there
to
running
two
of
our
programs.
Administering
geriatric
depression
scale
scoring
them.
You
know
we
have
a
clinician
there
to
actually
interpret
them
better,
understand,
senior
depression,
how
it's
related
to
poverty,
really
start
a
social
service,
core
knowledge,
mm-hmm.
C
Beautiful
excellent
idea,
good
suggestion,
any
other
questions,
I
have
one
last
question
on
marine,
the
you.
You
talked
about
a
legislation
that
could
help
stop
legal
fees
before
they
start
and/or.
You
know
creating
a
process
of
the
landlord
required
to
inform
a
nun
budzma,
nor
somebody
are
you
aware
of
where
that
is
in
play
anywhere.
That
type
of
program.
P
C
O
P
P
C
C
E
A
Me
so
there's
two
items
I'd
like
to
consider
adding
to
the
calendar
if
we
can
take
a
moment
and
discuss
them.
One
is
back
to
your
point.
Dale
of
we
can't
have
the
retreat
at
my
house,
but
if
you
would
give
me
a
date,
there's
two
places
that
come
to
mind
that
are
public
and
that
would
be
nice
places
to
have
it.
The
arrived
hotel
now
has
an
event
space,
it's
lovely
it's
private,
but
it
could
be
open
to
the
public
plenty
of
parking
or
the
bank,
which
is
next
to
my
office.
A
I
C
I
H
N
G
E
E
D
C
A
Yes,
so
I
handed
out
a
press
release
to
everyone
about
this
one-hour
television
program.
A
gentleman
in
San
Francisco
some
time
ago,
left
his
estate
and
and
gave
the
instructions.
Please
document
the
history
of
coming
out
by
the
decade.
So
this
gentleman
named
Phil
Siegel
started
the
process
and
first
he
had
young
people
asked
older
people.
What
was
it
like
to
come
out
in
the
1950s?
Then
he
did
the
60s
70s,
80s
and
90s.
A
Now
he's
condensed
it
down
into
a
one-hour
program,
and
it's
particularly
good
because
the
young
people
I
happen
to
be
in
the
one
in
the
60s
late
60s
and
the
young
person
who
asked
me
he
said
I
have
two
moms
and
I
want
to
know
what
it
was
like
for
you
to
come
out
during
that
time.
So
it
it's
a
really
educational,
but
also
an
interesting,
a
cross.
A
Generational
type
thing
you
can
see
it
online
I
can
show
it
to
you
and
it's
going
to
be
on
PBS
and
during
Pride,
Month
and
June,
but
he
gave
me
mr.
Seagal
gave
me
permission
to
use
it
for
our
Commission
as
a
fundraiser,
so
I'm
working
on
that.
But
I
need
input
first
of
all,
is
it
okay
with
everyone
and,
secondly,
I'm
going
to
need
a
little
bit
of
help
I'm
trying
to
meet
some
deadlines?
A
A
Our
financial
problems
are
solved,
at
least
for
the
first
year,
so
I'm
very
excited
about
this
I
hope
the
rest
of
the
Commission
can
get
on
board,
but
I'd
like
to
have
some
input
and
I'd
like
to
have
a
date
so
that
I
can
approach
the
theaters
in
town
and
say
we
need
it
now.
October
11th
is
coming
out
National
Coming
Out
Day,
so
that
would
be
a
thought
or
we
can
do
it.
G
A
A
B
The
Commission
has
sponsored
films
in
the
past,
the
homeless
program
that
we
did.
It
was
viewed
at
the
library
there
was
no
admission,
but
not
even
donation.
I
think
that
would
be
the
angle
you
would
want,
as
Jay
had
said
earlier,
about
the
love
fund
or
working
with
our
Director
of
Development
resources
and
how
we
structure
it.
We've
not
gone
down
this
path,
but
to
make
sure
that
we're
appropriate
and
how
we
move
forward.
B
C
I
think
we
can
give
you
direction
and
you
can
continue
to
gather
all
the
details
and
go
forward.
Those
sounds
like
we've
got
support
from
the
Commission
and
bring
it
on
the
agenda
for
September
to
vote
and-
and
you
know,
have
it
on
the
agenda,
so
it
can
be
formally
approved,
but
between
now
and
then
the
legwork
can
be
done
and
I
do.
There
is
a
great
connection
with
coming
out
day.
C
The
idea
was
conceived
at
the
Rose
restaurant
in
Los
Angeles
with
Gino
Larry,
and
that
restaurant
was
owned
by
a
Palm
Springs
resident
Pam,
Journey
vino,
so
there's
a
great
little
local
connection
there.
So
I
love,
I
love
the
idea
of
actually
doing
it
on
coming
out
day
and
I'm,
not
aware
of
other
activities
celebrating
coming
out
day
in
town
well,.
A
C
N
N
B
N
B
Before
last,
possibly
yeah
I
mean
I,
don't
want
to
frustrate,
you
I
mean
you've
shared.
You
know,
working
in
some
other
venues
of
Holland's
house.
You
know
affordable
housing
and
the
like.
But
when
we
have
these
brilliant
ideas,
there
is
a
process
and
we
do
need
to
come
together
and
you
know
vet
it
and
be
able
to
make
sure
that
we're
not
putting
the
city
any
liability
and
it
is
a
process.
So.
H
B
M
Since
we're
on
master
calendar
and
since
Nikki
needs
a
date
and
since
it's
all
we
all
the
consensus
is
at
October,
11th
are
probably
the
most
appropriate
date.
Let's
go
ahead
and
make
the
motion
that
we
have
this
fundraiser
on
a
that,
we
add
it
to
the
master
calendar
for
October
11th,
with
the
details
to
be
brought
at
the
July
meeting
to
be
voted
on
by
the
Commission
and
that's
a
motion.
I.
B
Mean
did
I
not
to
be
an
objection
to
it,
but
I
think
all
you're
asking
now
is
for
direction.
I
think
you're
going
to
have
to
come
forward
with
the
entire
proposal
program
and,
however,
how
every
piece
falls
into
place.
I
mean
I,
appreciate
you
wanting
to
move
things
for,
but
I
don't
think
you
actually
need
the
formal
motion
to
do
that,
to
give
direction
for
more
research
and
to
come
back.
July
I'll.
A
M
Just
so
that
you
have
a
have
initial
direction
as
far
as
a
day
to
ask
these
people
for
I
think
the
consensus
is
October
11th
right.
Yes,
so
we
can
and
we
and
we
can.
We
can
decide
that
in
the
context,
I
think
of
the
master
calendar
we're
putting
something
on
the
calendar
with
everything
else,
but
with
everything
else
to
come
at
the
next
meeting.
I
I
Other
thing
I
was
thinking
too,
is
can't
this
be
broken
in
two
pieces,
I
mean
for
one.
Could
we
not
take
action
sooner
rather
than
later
on
firming
the
date
as
the
plan
date
and
then
later
affirm
the
program,
because
I
totally
resonate
with
your
frustration
on
that
yeah
I,
it's
impossible
in
my
experience
and
I've
had
some
experience
to
even
really
start
with
this
type
of
program.
Unless
there
is
some
level
and
it's
not
all
100%
I
realized,
maybe
we
can't
make
an
absolute
commitment
but
have
a
pretty
good
idea.
C
F
C
C
H
Course
there
is
so
the
community
outreach
and
marketing
the
big
thing
that
we've
been
working
on,
of
course,
is
table
talk.
We
have
two
more
dates,
one
of
which
is
tomorrow
for
the
Highlands
community,
I.
Think
there's
a
few
of
us.
That
said
we
can
attend,
which
is
fantastic.
We
had
a
lively
poker
game
yesterday
with
some
women
and
some
who
may
have
been
lesbians,
and
then
we
have
one
more,
that's
the
very
last
one
scheduled
which
is
Thursday
July
19
at
the
American
Legion.
H
So
after
that,
we'll
have
pretty
much
everything
tallied
up,
not
official.
Again,
not
you
know
all
prim
and
proper,
but
we'll
have
something
to
will
be
able
to
present
to
the
entire
Commission
one
thing
about
our
our:
what
does
it
call
her
or
not
our
camp?
What
we're
doing
Retreat
retreat
if
we
choose
it
after
the
19th,
we
could
probably
have
some
statistics,
a
very
own
official
statistics
and
be
kind
of
fun
for
all
of
us
to
kind
of
delve
in
to
just
this
raw.
H
You
know
data
from
the
public
that
we
can
kind
of
decide
where
we
want
to
go
in
the
next
year.
If
there's
any
kind
of
I
promise,
I
have
not
looked
at
anything,
I
purposely,
not
because
I
didn't
want
to
come
to
a
meeting
and
start
talking
about
it.
I
have
left
it
locked
up
in
my
filing
cabinet,
so
no
one
looks
at
it,
but
that's
just
a
thought
or
consideration
if
we
want
to
hold
a
meeting
after
we
have
the
very
last
table
talk,
and
maybe
we
might
see
something
in
there.
That's
interesting
and.
N
H
N
H
N
A
On
the
marketing
committee,
so
our
guest
speaker
last
month,
who
was
talking
about
the
social
security
cards
and
preventing
fraud
with
those
was
very
kind,
and
he
sent
me
over
a
hundred
brochures
which
we
can
put
in
our
marketing
box
and
we
can
hand
out
freely
because
it's
happening
now
to
anybody
who
comes
to
our
table
talks
or
if
anyone
else
is
representing
the
Commission
somewhere.
We
have
more
stuff
in
the
box
now
beautiful.
F
C
B
J
H
C
Did
happen,
yeah
yeah
yeah?
So
if
you,
if
we've
let's
put
that
on
the
one
of
the
topics
to
have
a
conversation
with
her
about
what
are
the
deadlines,
you
know
whether
to
the
requirements
length
number
of
words
thing
all
that
nuts
and
bolts,
so
we
can
figure
out
what
we
can.
What
we
can
include:
okay,
beautiful
yeah.
I
Just
one
thing
I'll
add
to
that
the
other
communication
channel
that
could
be
open.
It's
shifted
a
little
bit
now
I'm
kind
of
wearing
my
one
PS
hat
here,
but
I
think
it
ties
in
better
right
here.
One
PS
does
a
lot
of
communication
to
the
community
as
a
whole
and
now
has
a
very
well-developed
and
it's
taking
a
long
time
and
era.
Now
it's
good
communication
process
so
cost
nothing,
but
to
be
sure
that
the
flow
of
communication
goes
into
one
PS
or
their
own
updates.
I
B
B
Clarification
was
that
during
the
council's
budget,
discussion
councilmen
were
hosted
brought
up
that
half
of
the
Human
Rights
Commission
budget
is
a
sponsorship
of
the
Harvey
Milk
diversity
breakfast.
So
she
was
encouraging
her
colleagues
that
to
consider
the
possibility,
if
there
are
funds
to
increase
the
Human
Rights
Commission
budget,
there
was
no
overwhelming
direction
to
say
that
oh,
we
found
some
additional
funds,
but
it
would
be
a
vehicle
for
next
year,
so
the
the
coming
year,
July
1,
you
still
have
a
two
thousand
dollar
budget:
okay,.
A
A
A
I'm
up
in
the
optimistic,
even
though
I
know
I'm,
lacking
and
following
the
rules,
but
that
we
can
fundraise
I
mean
this
could
raise
thousands
of
dollars
for
our
Commission.
Then
we
won't
have
to
be
so
concerned
about
what
we
spend
our
minuscule
two
thousand
dollar
budget
on.
If
I
may
comment
on
the
Harvey
Milk
diversity,
breakfast
I
was
there
and
it
was
fantastic.
It
was
just
a
really
moving
the
speaker's
the
this
participation
of
the
students,
the
participation
of
the
City
Council.
It
was
just
very
inspiring
and
really
a
wonderful
event.
A
With
that
being
said
at
our
table,
it
was
not
full,
partly
because
some
commissioners
had
other
organizations
so
I
in
/.
The
gentleman's
comments
there
I
would
prefer,
if
we're
going
to
sponsor
it
and
part
of
the
sponsorship,
is
that
we
get
a
table
that
we
donate,
that
the
students
and
we,
the
commissioners
if
we
want
to
go,
we
pay
our
own
way
that
that
would
be
my
suggestion
on
it.
You
know
I
think
it
is
a
good
branding
tool.
A
B
Those
are
the
from
the
Finance
Committee.
Let
me
clarify
two
this
year
being
the
first
year
where
the
city
has
a
made,
the
opportunity
of
donations
and
contributions
received.
I
have
been
told
that
those
items
are
restricted
and
they
will
carry
forward
to
the
coming
year.
So
what
I've
done
is
use
our
city
budget
funds
to
exhaust
those,
so
we
will
have
a
surplus
that
will
move
forward
and
we'll
keep
that
so
I
mean
I,
appreciate
your
opinion,
but
this
will
have
to
be
a
discussion
later
in
an
actual
formal
vote.
B
The
only
the
restricted
donations
so
individuals
who
have
made
donation
through
the
year,
those
funds
will
remain
up
to
the
point
of
the
two
thousand
dollars.
Now
we've
had
some
expenses
and
we
typically
exhaust
the
$2,000.
So
we
may
bite
into
the
unrestricted
funds,
but
whatever
unexpended,
restricted
funds,
they'll
be
surplus
and
move
forward
in
the
coming
fiscal
year.
So.
H
Why
not,
if
we're
going
to
talk
about
things
that
are
retreat,
I
mean
I,
don't
think
we
should
just
think
$2,000.
We
should
think
what
do
we
want
to
do?
What
do
we
need
to
do
and
how
do
we
get
it
funded.
Nikki
is
mentioned
at
several
different
meetings
that
she's
done
fundraising,
let's
put
her
on
it.
Let's
just
get
her
started
and
say
we're
gonna
do
event
a
why
these
whatever
it
is
and
I
think
the
challenge
for
us
is
not
just
to
think.
H
I
Yeah
I
also
very
much
agree
with
your
comments.
David
I
think
that
is
our
way
forward,
but
Dale
what
I
mean
is
I'm
glad
to
hear
it.
But
I
was
kind
of
amazed
because
I
know
I've
asked
and
first
I've
heard
about
it.
You
mentioned
that
donations
that
are
have
are
specifically
designated
would
carry
over
I've.
Never,
even
though
have
asked
been
informed
of
how
donations
could
be
made
to
the
Commission
for
its
activities
is.
F
B
J
B
Of
a
facility
those
went
into
the
general
fund
and
they
were
they
weren't
carried
forward.
They
they
were
extinguished,
but
with
the
effort
than
trying
to
solicit
more
contributions
and
support
of
the
community.
Those
unrestricted
unrestricted
funds
of
sorts
would
remain
for
the
use
of
that
activity.
So
it's
it's
very
and
I
mean
there
are
a
number
of
opportunities
that
individuals
in
the
community
can
provide
well.
I
I'm
trying
to
be
remind
thats,
good
to
know
and
I'm
glad
to
be
refreshed.
I'm
sorry
miss
the
first
time.
Then
my
question
becomes:
do,
though,
do
those
donations
do
those
fun,
do
those
following
to
the
Palm
Springs
Foundation
and
are
subject
to
the
fiscal
policies
of
the
Palm
Springs
foundation?
That's.
I
H
We
have
a
we've
had
a
lot
of
outreach.
Originally,
we
were
recommended
to
speak
to
a
person
at
the
school
district
who
recommended
that
we
speak
to
a
vice
principal
at
the
Palm
Springs
High
School,
that
vice
principal
at
the
high
school
started
talking
to
some
students
and
getting
them
excited.
We
had
a
meeting
planned.
The
students
were
not
able
to
make
the
meeting
and
the
person
who
actually
had
organized
it
was
not
able
to
attend
either
a
long
story
short.
The
principal
of
the
high
school
felt
a
little
bit
left
out.
H
I
certainly
understand
that,
but
the
principal
already
had
some
people
chosen
that
he
wanted
us
to
select,
as
the
student
Commissioner
I
think
before
us.
Now,
what
we
have
to
decide
is
exactly
what
process
do
we
want
to
use
and
to
have
a
student
Commissioner?
One
thing
that
I
was
just
speaking
to
another
Commissioner
earlier
about
is
that
we
can
say
what
we
want,
but
it's
still
going
to
be
chosen
by
a
certain
person.
So
how
do
we
get
the
word
out
to
the
students
at
the
school?
This
is
what
we're
doing
and
who's
interested.
H
We
want
to
talk
to
you
because
they
think
right
now
as
it
is,
we
just
have
a
principle:
that's
going
to
pretty
much
choose
a
student
or
a
couple
students,
but
it's
not
really
the
wide
swath
of
people
that
are
at
the
school
that
might
be
interested,
such
as
the
ones
we
actually
spoke
to.
By
the
way
off
the
cuff,
we
spoke
to
a
Spanish,
Honor
Society.
They
had
no
idea
what
we
were
there
for.
H
They
didn't
know
anything
about
the
human
rights
commission,
but
there
are
a
few
of
them
that
were
interested,
so
I
think
if
we
were
able
to
just
be
able
to
communicate.
Maybe
it's
something
with
our
own
PR
department
for
the
City
Hall
that
we
can
communicate
that
it's
more
official
I'm
just
worried
that
if
we
don't
have
a
fishel
form
of
communicating
with
the
students,
it's
only
gonna
be
for
a
select
few,
and
it's
not
going
to
be
the
group
of
people
that
we
necessarily
want
to
interview.
H
C
H
I'm
in
a
loss
for
words,
as
far
as
like
how
do
I
communicate
with
the
student
body
at
the
school,
because
I
did
try
to
do
that,
and
then
it
was
kind
of
shot
down.
So
how
do
I
move
forward
without
people's
hands
being
tied
and
not
being
able
to
talk
to
those
original
people?
There
apparently
was
a
group
of
students
from
the
black
student
you
and
the
Gay
and
Lesbian
Alliance,
etc,
etc.
I
don't
know
where
those
students
went
and
now
how
do
I
reach
that.
C
C
D
M
B
Think
a
once
you
have
a
plan,
you
may
want
to
formalize
it
to
clarify
it.
Isn't
a
commissioner:
it's
not
a
commission
member
of
the
Human
Rights
Commission
as
commissioners.
You
go
through
the
internal
city
process
and
your
interview
by
council
Council
makes
recommendations
of
appointments.
There
are.
There
is
no
formal
process
for
student
representatives,
so
if
it
seems
to
be
a
challenge
to
have
the
school
to
recognize
the
effort
is
there
a
way
that
we
could
solicit
those
membership.
B
The
student
membership
and
run
an
ad
in
the
student
paper
and
request
applications
and
the
commission
members
would
review
those
applications
and
that's
separate
from
the
city's
process.
This
is
your
own
process,
and
if
the
school
district
or
the
high
school
the
principal
on-site
supervision
doesn't
want
us
there,
then
we
can
do
it
outside
the
process
and
that
would
be
benefit.
N
And
and
I
think
that
that's
the
challenge
that
it
has
been
had
and
I
think
that,
because
things
are
being
changed
up
there,
there
is
is,
as
is,
and
a
real
good
understanding.
Why
aren't
you
just
gonna?
Do
it
the
way
that
it's
always
been
done
and
that
I
think
is
the
the
edge
challenges
that
have
been
had
and
we
have
talked
about
an
application
I
really
like
the
the
idea
of
just
come
up
with
the
application
and
give
it
to
I.
N
N
C
C
N
I
Okay,
I
think
I
reported
last
time
that
we
were
I'm
going
to
postpone
the
expo
into
the
fall
and
we
actually
do
have
a
date
in
the
fall.
Amazingly,
we
could
get
that
far
anyway,
October
23,
so
Jessica,
that's
a
big
master
calendar
thing
that
will
be
the
the
new
date
we're
planning
towards
for
the
senior
Expo
other
logistics
remain.
I
The
same
will
be
at
Mizell
center,
be
preceded
with
breakfast
I
believe,
starting
at
8:30,
with
the
program
starting
at
9:00,
so
we'll
be
moving
ahead
with
the
marketing
and
the
publicity
and
everything
here
over
the
summer
and
getting
that
ready.
So
we
can
kick
that
off
with
a
bang
and
the
other
thing
I
would
bring
up
as
well
I've
kind
of
attempted
to
raise
as
earlier
as
various
points
came
up,
but
no
that's,
okay.
We
will
get
this
done
first,
but
the
tying
is
this.
I
A
and
I
mean
right
now,
it's
just
the
general
thought
it
needs
a
lot
of
fleshing
out
in
terms
of
the
specifics
of
what
does
annum
budzma
mean
in
this
environment.
How
would
that
be,
but
that
it
resonates
there
and
the
planning
for
the
senior
Expo
and
we've
heard
of
this
being
a
need
elsewhere,
that
there
really
needs
to
be
somebody
to
work
across
the
silos,
so
I
think
that'll
be
the
important
benefit
of
that
day
and
hopefully
set
the
stage
to
move
that
forward
and
I.
Think
that's
it
for
now.
I
They're
really,
the
most
important
thing
we
wanted
to
do
was
to
get
it
moved
and
to
get
the
date
set
in
fall.
So
now
we
do
have
that
thanks
for
your
help,
yeah
we
do
have
councilmember
calendars
check,
Rhonda,
don't
know
if
you
saw
in
a
couple
of
emails,
I
sent
around
the
calendaring
I
mentioned
you
to
check
with
the
police
department,
so
they're,
good,
they're,
good
cool,
well,
both
attics
care
that
one
I'm
out
of
gas
on
this
topic.
If
somebody
has
some
questions
or
observations,
you're.
I
B
B
B
I
Well,
the
other,
the
the
last,
at
least
on
the
planning
side
of
this
there
was
a
we
did.
Jenny
joined
one
of
our
meetings
and
when
this
topic
came
up
with
Jenny's
turn
UFO
Judy
folk,
Jenny
yeah
for
the
record
and
so
Jenny
said
well,
you
know
she
was
going
to
pursue
that
as
well.
Also
with
her
contacts,
the
city,
because
the
point
there
is
as
true
Michelle
was
carrying
the
bulk
of
the
expense
on
this
and
the
sense
the
planning
committee
is
if
the
joint
project
isn't
there's
some
joint
responsibility
there.
I
So
that's
what's
going
on
with
that.
I
have
not
heard
from
Jenny
what
she's
done
or,
if
she's
done
anything
with
that,
but
I
do
think
it's
a
wide
open
question,
because,
right
now
what
I
am
I
know
what
to
do
about.
For
instance,
we
know
that
in
the
publicity
program
we
not
know
not
only
want
English
language
materials,
we
also
want
Spanish.
We
also
want
to
be
sure
that
we
have
a
sign
language
interpretation
at
the
event
we
have
these
things.
They're
important
to
this
commission
have
been
important.
I
Commission
topics
and
myself
does
not
have
the
budget
for
that,
and
you
know
and
I've
pretty
much
just
got
tossed
to
me
and
I've
reported
back
to
that
planning
committee
whatever
here,
which
is
that
basically,
there
is
next
to
no
money
available
and
the
Commission's
budget
for
this,
which
is
when
Jenny
said
that
she
would
and
have
her
discussion
so
I
I,
don't
that's
where
it
is,
and
I've
just
also
kind
of
gotten.
Well,
okay,
who
are
trying,
but
I
I,
don't
know
where
else
to
go
to
get
the
specifics.
O
C
I
I
C
I
C
M
L
G
G
G
I,
don't
know
if
it's
appropriate
in
this
about
this,
but
just
linking
with
what
Maureen
said
about
evictions
I
see
that
that
preventing
evictions,
whether
it's
seniors
or
families
or
any
segment
of
the
population,
really
factors
into
the
housing
piece,
because
if
someone
loses
their
home
and
even
if
they
do
or
don't
wind
up
with
legal
fees
associated
with
it,
if
they
didn't
have
the
money
to
pay
that
rent,
they
certainly
don't
have
the
money
to
move
someplace
and
start
all
over
again.
So
I
think
that
prevention
is
really
critical
and
I.
G
Don't
know
if
it's
something
that
this
commission
would
be
interested
in,
especially
in
developing
an
revised
mission
statement
if
we
want
to
add
advocacy
to
it,
I,
don't
I,
don't
think
that
we
could
probably
take
on
prevent
the
prevention
itself,
but
I
do
think
that
we
could
let
people
know
that
there
are
ways
to
prevent
them
getting
being
put
on
the
street
sort
of
a
thing.
Do
you
know
what
I'm
talking
about
it's
just
it's,
we
wouldn't
whether
it's
a
referral
or
whatever
you
know,
I
think
it's
such
a
daunting
process.
G
The
eviction
process
that
people
get
the
notice
and
it's
not
unusual
that
they
just
file
it.
It's
like
I,
don't
know
what
to
do.
I,
don't
understand
it.
I,
don't
know
what
my
rights
are.
I,
don't
know
if
I
even
have
any
rights,
I,
don't
know
what
the
timing
is
around
it.
That
type
of
thing
so
I
really
think
that
maybe
there's
a
role
for
this
this
commission
in
trying
to
do
what
Maureen
was
talking
about
to
at
least
let
people
know
that
there
is
something
that
can
be
done
it's,
but
do
it
early?
G
Do
it
really
early
in
the
process?
If
we
could
talk
to
a
landlord
and
say
you
know
this
guy's
$45
short
on
his
rent
this
month,
maybe
we
could
work
something
out
with
the
landlord
we're
they're,
not
evict
it,
and
they
don't
start
that
process.
I,
don't
know.
Maybe
it's
wishful
thinking
on
my
part,
but
I
do
think.
There's
a
role
for
this
organization
in
what
it
is.
N
N
Of
course,
you
you,
you
I,
couldn't
judge
charge
for
a
piece
like
that,
because
you
want
people
to
be
there
and
to
have
a
panel
of
people,
Chris,
pasa
pasa,
possibly
the
people
that
we
have
her
to
have
at
least
their
paperwork
there
too,
for
people
to
come
by
:
colored
like
because
there
is
a
large
population
to
in
the
evening
in
the
library
in
the
colder
time.
Still
it
closes
sure
yeah.
N
M
G
This
is
what's
gonna
happen
if
it's
just
educational,
but
it
might
be
just
a
resource
and
referral
thing,
but
it
might
also,
like
you
said,
be
a
phone
call
to
the
landlord
and
say:
hey.
You
know
we're
advocating
for
this
person
kidding
you.
What
can
you
do
to
help
us?
You
know
get
him
another
month
and
that.
M
B
B
We
can
go
through
resources
and
I
can
share
those,
and
we
can
be
able
to
facilitate
those
but
you're
not
going
to
be
able
to
be
able
to
be
with
the
client
and
walk
them
through
the
process.
Even
our
mediation
program,
there's
only
a
couple
of
you
that
have
the
certification.
The
mediation
program
requires
each
party
to
be
willing
to
participate
in
you're,
probably
not
going
to
get
a
landlord.
You
know
the
path
of
life
ministry,
they
are
looking
at
the
prevention
of
homelessness.
They
have
resources
for
rapid,
rehousing
right.
F
B
Are
the
connections
that
we
need
to
give
but
I
wouldn't
be
hopeless
and
saying
that
there's
nothing
out?
You've
got
a
very
strong
council
that
wants
to
do
something
in
affordable
housing
and
it's
gonna
take
some
willpower.
We
can
encourage
it,
we
can
support
it.
We
can
push
it
up,
but
it's
not
at
our
level.
It's.
G
Gonna
take
some
time,
I
mean
by
the
time
we
are
looking
at.
You
know
getting
bricks
and
mortar
to
build
something
or
to
create
a
project.
You
could
have
easily
saved,
maybe
three
or
four
or
five
or
ten
people
from
being
evicted
and
if
it
was
just
I'm
not
suggesting
that
we
have
the
expertise
to
to
be
the
people
that
do
that,
but
I
mean
maybe
just
the
opportunity
that
Maureen
said
that
a
lot
of
times
you
don't
even
know
about
the
person
getting
the
notice.
G
You
don't
even
know
that
they've
been
served
because
they're
they're
not
in
a
position
to
tell
you
about
it
or
to
call
one
of
these
organizations
kind
of
a
thing
so
so
I
understand
it's
certainly
not
in
place
of,
but
it
might
just
be
a
little
bit
of
prevention
that
we
could
look
at,
especially
in
the
senior
rights
community.
I.
Just.
E
A
Might
be
a
bigger
problem
or
the
wheels
are
already
turning
on
this.
First
of
all,
it
seemed
to
me
that
what
I
thought
of
this
affordable
housing
was
not
the
definition
everyone
else
was
talking
about.
So
it's
a
broad
range,
not
just
what
I'm
going
well,
where
are
the
police
officers
and
the
teachers
and
the
hotel
workers
gonna
live.
So
that
was
my
being
naive.
A
So
it
was
a
very
educational
process
to
be
there,
but
what
I
did
learn
is
that
you
know
there
are
sources
for
money
for
affordable
housing
and
the
city
isn't
the
ones
that
has
all
the
money
is
a
2.6
million.
You
guys
have
for
that.
A
fifty
one
unit
complex
is
already
underway
being
developed,
so
you
know
I
mean
there's
I'm
not
going
to
change
that.
A
So
afterwards,
then
I
did
have
coffee
with
City
Council
member
holstege
and
I
said
how
can
I
help
I
want
to
help,
but
I
can
see
that
you
know
I,
don't
how
to
write
grants.
So
she
was
saying
that
really
we
need
to
attract
builders.
This
is
what
they
do.
They
build
affordable
housing,
so
I'm
gonna
reach
out.
A
As
far
and
wide
as
I
can
to
try
to
interest
someone
in
our
fine
city
in
building
affordable
housing,
the
only
thing
I
did
come
out
of
that
with
is
thinking
we
should
buy
land
with
the
2.6
million.
I
did
think
that
because
if
we
don't
have
the
land,
if
we
get
the
builders
and
I
being
in
real
estate,
day-in
day-out
that
mean
Palm
Springs
is
very
popular
right
now
and
will
probably
continue
to
do
so.
So
I
just
hope
that
we
can
get
a
handle
on
this
and
that
we
can
provide
affordable
housing.
I.
I
Just
have
a
thought
also
for
the
mix
and
I
think
maybe
we
can
and
I'm
not
gonna
propose
action
right
now,
but
I
do
think
this
could
be
a
discussion
topic
for
the
retreat
and
that
would
be
in
a
lot
of
these
areas,
like
we've
already
brought
up
the
topic
of
Ombudsman
or
having
staff
to
available
and
resources
today.
Well,
the
bottom
line
is
we'll:
never
have
enough
staff
we'll
never
have
enough
to
do
all
the
improvements
things.
So
my
suggestion
for
us
to
think
about
it
may
be
discussed
further.
I
The
retreat
is,
how
could
we
be
training?
A
lot
of
our
lay
citizens
in
some
of
the
basic
skills
needed
to
support
our
various
populations?
Seniors,
certainly
for
sure,
and
probably
our
starting
block.
It
could
be
others
I'm,
a
former
executive
director
of
an
organization
that
had
2,700
lay
volunteers
that
were
trained
by
five
clinical
psych
lot
psychologists
because
they're
not
enough
clinical
psychologists
to
go
around.
So
what
did
they
do?
These
were
not
clinical
psychologists.
I
Obviously
they
aren't
going
to
be
trained
by
that
in
that
type
of
environment,
but
they
did
learn
a
specific
set
of
skills
that
could
be
documented,
so
there's
lay
people
could
go
out
and
serve
the
community.
This
case
this
was
HIV
support
during
the
emotional
support.
During
the
HIV
crisis,
le
gentil,
we
were
fielding
27,
2500
volunteers
with
direct
one-on-one
relationships
so
I'm.
I
That
model
is
stuck
with
me
for
obviously
reasons
and
it's
a
big
discussion
that
we
had
and
that's
why
I'm
suggesting
retreat
but
I
think
that
might
have
some
real
value,
because
if
it's
a
volunteer
resource,
then
of
course
the
dollar
thing
does
not
become
as
horrendously
big-looking.
So
that's
my
thought.
C
Excellent
and
I
just
like
to
encourage
Commissioner,
Andrade
and
Randolph
to
continue
going
to
those
meetings
and
asking
the
councilmember
representatives.
Ask
the
question:
continue
to
ask
the
question:
how
what
is
it
specifically
that
the
Human
Rights
Commission
can
assist
the
councilmember
with
so,
let's
find
out
from
them
how
we
can
help
them?
And
then
your
report
back
to
us
can
give
us
some
real
meat
on
the
bones
that
we
can.
We
can
provide
that
support
or
we
could
work
on
it
to
see
if
we
can
provide
it.
C
E
G
I
Have
a
little
snippet
for
you.
The
big
project
at
one
PS
now
is
one
PS
in
conjunction
with
the
city
has
formally
announced
that
Palm
Springs
will
host
noosa
next
year.
Noosa
is
neighborhoods
USA
and
it
is
a
u.s.
organization
of
cities
or
these
organizations
within
cities
that
support
neighborhood
involvement,
not
unlike
our
own
one
I
our
office
here
in
Palm
Springs,
so
that
will
be
next
year.
May
15
through
18
and
just
guide
suggest
that
also
go
on
the
master
calendar.
Just
so
we're
aware
of
that
in
our
planning,
but
the
yeah
may
15.
I
Say
if
we
have
time
at
the
retreat,
I
don't
ask
to
be
top
at
the
general,
but
if
we
had
time
I
think
we
should
try
and
strategize
of
how
or
if
or
what
we
do
to
connect
with
that,
because
the
the
there'll
be
lots
of
visibility.
There'll
be
lots
of
tours,
and
there
will
also
be
a
lot
to
learn
from
that
group.
So
I'm
just
putting
that
out
there
as
a
thought
piece.
But
the
calendar
thing
is
what
it
is.
Okay,.
C
B
C
C
D
D
C
D
C
Beautiful
okay,
it's
658
before
we
adjourn
I
just
want
to
note.
Our
first
meeting
going
to
five
o'clock
didn't
seem
to
draw
any
additional
people
from
the
community
based
on
the
hour.
Actually
it
had
fewer
people
attending
so
I
think
we
should
take
note
of
that
as
we
continue
to
go
forward,
but
normally
we
do
have
one
or
two.
You
know
folks,
just
observing
so
we're
agenda
659
for
our
next
regular.
C
Oh
no
is
it
going
to
be
called
a
regular
meeting
its
next
regular
meeting,
there's
going
to
be
a
date
not
set
in
July
we're
gonna
figure
out
that
date
and
get
it
out
and
have
it
posted
according
to
the
proper
schedules,
and
we
will
doodle
everybody
so
to
pick
that
date.
So,
thank
you
all
appreciate
all
the
input.
Thank
you.
