Okay,
excellent.
We
appreciate
it
next
up
item
six
chair
comments.
That
is
for
me
so
thanks
and
welcome.
Oliver,
commissioner
clary.
This,
I
think,
is
your
second
meeting
you
were
on
for
the
joint
meeting
seems
like
such
a
long
time
ago,
but
it
was
only
a
few
days
a
week
and
a
half
ago
or
so
so
welcome.
A
We
appreciate
you
coming
on
board
and
joining
our
work
of
the
human
rights
commission
and
thank
you
to
everyone
for
you
know,
participating
in
the
the
joint
meeting.
It
was
a
very
important
meeting
for
us
to
be
able
to
hear
city
council
but,
more
importantly,
hear
the
community
speak
on
how
they
felt
about
not
only
the
apology
for
section
14
but
the
the
the
entire
discussion
on
the
monument.
A
Moved
by
commissioner
lola,
yes,
second,
commissioner,
flood
did
I
see
you
nod
your
head.
Is
yes,
let's
check
one
for
a
second
okay,
all
all
in
favor
of
approving
the
minutes
is
presented.
I
say:
aye
raise
your
hand
nod
your
head.
That's
unanimous.
Jay
minutes
are
adopted
as
presented
thanks
to
staff
for
keeping
us
ahead
on
these
minutes.
Now
we're
reporting
in
a
much
more
timely
basis,
and
we
appreciate
that
and
understand
the
human
resources
shortage
that
we've
had
for
a
long
time,
but
we
appreciate
keeping
up
on
those
item.
A
I
think
I
was
supposed
to
talk
about
recognition
under
my
chair
comments,
so
I
will
put
that
here
on
items
for
discussion
and
action,
and
the
recognition
activity
for
today
is
today
is
indigenous
people's
day
and
it's
a
holiday
that
celebrates
and
honors
the
native
american
peoples
and
commemorates
their
histories
and
cultures
and
being
native
our
indigenous
people's
day.
I'd
just
like
to
reiterate
that
the
human
rights
commission
acknowledges
that
the
land
we
live
and
work
on
is
the
original
homelands
of
the
iowa
caliente
ban,
the
kuwaia
indians.
A
A
This
is
an
important
rec
day
of
recognition
because
it
it
really
honors
our
native
indigenous
americans,
in
opposition
to
the
celebration
that
his
has
been
come
more
commonly
known
as
columbus
day.
So
it's
we
proudly
support
indigenous
people's
day.
We
don't
have
a
formal
resolution
to
that
effect,
but
we
do
would
like
to
let
the
commissioners
know.
A
I
did
reach
out
to
representatives
of
the
tribal
council
and
extended
our
hand
to
the
council
and
if
they
wanted
to
present
a
proclamation,
we
offered
our
support
in
in
that
effort
and
for
them
just
to
let
us
know
how
we
might
be
of
assistance
and
I'm
not
sure
if
they've
moved
on
that
on
their
own
or
not
other
reports.
Coming
out
of
the
executive
committee,
we
had
no
executive
committee.
A
So
you
know
the
hopefully
we'll
be
able
to
get
back
onto
a
or
get
into
a
routine
for
those
meetings
and
the
I
think,
the
other
standing
committees
that
we
used
to
have.
We
really
have
created
liaisons
for
those
standing
committees
and
we'll
go
through
and
get
reports
on
standing
committees,
our
liaisons,
sorry
from
starting
off
with
the
police
department,
lgbt
outreach
report,
you
know
we
we
did
meet.
A
There
was
there's
a
discussion
about
the
identifying
or
making
an
arrest
in
the
murder
of
a
local
lesbian.
In
town
and
one
of
our
seniors,
who
had
just
retired,
so
we
are
pleased
to
see
the
police
department
that
work
so
swiftly
to
find
a
person
and
and
bring
charges
to
that
person
on
both
of
those
murders
very
very
happy
to
see
that
no
other
real
big
issues
came
forward
or
items
of
of
note
there.
E
E
The
two
that
we
want
to
I
did
report
on
those
at
the
last
meeting
and
there's
a
whole
list
of
other
dates
to
keep
in
mind.
But
I
want
to
you
know
since
we're
creeping
up
to
november.
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we
have
our
participation
in
both
of
those
parades,
and
I
we
we've
already.
You
know,
asked
anybody
here
in
the
commission
to
please
march
with
us-
and
I
you
know
this
is
actually
very
new
for
me.
E
So
I
you
know,
these
are
the
kind
of
things
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we
follow
through
with
in
our
community
engagement
and
participation,
and
that
the
human
rights
commission
is
there
in
in
actually
as
strong
as
a
full
force
as
possible,
so
as
well
as
the
veterans
day
parade
that's
coming
up
in
november,
but
those
are
the
two
main
things
that
I
wanted
to
stress
with
the
master
calendar.
Thank
you.
E
We
I
have
student
representative,
henner
and
lillian
are
on
board
and
I
think
did
I
just
hear
that
commissioner
loyola's
interested
in
marching
as
well.
So
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
getting
more
folks
involved
and
seeing
how
we
can
also
see
how
you
know
the
other
city
government
commissions,
who
are
marching
and
city
government.
Folks
who
are
you
know
what
what
it
looks
like
so
because
this
is
fairly
new
for
me.
So
I'm
not
too
sure
how
you
know.
A
A
But
it's
important
that
we
have
more
than
two
people.
Vice
chair
shepard
raised
her
hand
that
that
she
will
be
marching.
So
do
we
have
commitments.
Commissioner
flood
is
also
marching.
Commissioner,
are
there
any
other
commissioners
able
to
march
in
the
pride
parade
under
commissioner
ramaran's
direction?
A
A
C
E
C
A
A
E
A
And
I
think
that's
what
we
got
right
now
great,
so
that's
excellent.
We
appreciate
that
and-
and
we
can
at
least
have
a
presence
with
four
people
and
the
banner.
So
thank
you
for
doing
that
and
if
plans
change
for
anybody
else,
please
connect
with
commissioner
romeron
directly
and
we
would
love
to
have
your
participation
in
both
of
those
activities.
So
that's
excellent.
A
A
A
D
A
C
C
C
C
A
A
A
D
Can
you
hear
me?
Yes,
oh
okay,
sorry
I
just
wanted
to
ask
I
guess
on
the
youth
education
affairs
standing
committee,
you
know
you
said
we
hadn't
met
so
his
commissioner
shepard
the
chair
of
the
committee
or
how
do
we
know
when
the
committee
is
going
to
meet
or
what
we
should
be
doing
and
a
little
new
to
the
whole
committee
structure?
So
I'm
just
asking
for
some
guidance
on
how
this
is
supposed
to
function.
A
I
believe
that
our
previous
meeting,
vice
chair
shepard,
opened
the
door
for
robles
or
hannah
or
vignolo
to
step
ahead
in
the
leadership
of
that.
Am
I
correct
yeah?
Okay,
so
it
was
left
in
the
hands
of
ignola
and
robles
to
step
forward
and
and
if
that
is
going
to
continue
as
a
standing
committee,
it
does
need
to
be
agendized.
It
does
need
to
be
posted.
We
need
a
formal
agenda
created
and
you
can
get
with
jay
on
that
process.
A
D
E
Yeah
just
quickly
in
regards
to
the
the
clean
air,
the
clean
indoor,
air
and
health
protection
crafting
ordinance.
I
know
that
it
was
mentioned
at
the
last
meeting
quickly
and
just
just
as
a
reminder.
The
draft
that
we
do
have
now
is
just
the
current
draft.
There's
nothing.
There's
there
hasn't
been
anything
given
to
us
by
sustainability
with
any
new
edits.
Oh.
A
E
A
B
There's
a
quite
a
bit
going
on
with
the
homelessness
activity.
The
palm
springs
access
center
opened,
as
you
know
about
a
month
ago
and
is
up
and
running
it's
still
being
assembled
as
we
speak.
We
still
have
to
add
an
office
modular
building
to
the
facility
for
the
staff
to
operate
out
of,
but
they
were
okay
working
virtually
for
a
short
time
frame,
so
they
are
accommodating
us
in
that
regard.
But
this
group
marked
this
village
and
kitchen
is
also
the
group.
B
That's
operating
the
the
overnight
shelter
at
the
methodist
church
and
they
have
struck
a
deal
to
continue
providing
that
service
there
for
one
more
month
till
the
end
of
october.
But
after
that
it
will
probably
end.
So.
As
you
may
know,
you
know,
palm
springs
does
not
have
an
overnight
shelter
and
martha's
village
is
proposing
that
as
part
of
their
operation
at
the
former
boxing
club,
you
know
they
would
like
to
explore
the
possibility
of
adding
a
few
pod
homes
or
pallet
homes.
B
The
you
know
they
go
by
different
names
to
that
site
to
allow
for
individuals
to
stay
overnight
there.
So
there's
there's
that
going
on
and,
of
course
we
we
have
the
permanent
supportive
housing
projects
moving
forward.
There
were
two
approvals,
this
past
meeting
to
finalize
the
west
hollywood
project
on
stevens
and
palm
canyon.
B
D
Thank
you
chair.
I
just
wanted
to
mention.
At
the
last
1ps
meeting
in
october
city
manager,
clifton
did
report
to
the
members
that
enforcement
was
being
increased
regarding
homelessness,
particularly
around
bus
stops
throughout
the
city
reported
that
they
were
city
would
also
be
increasing.
Maintenance
of
bus
stops
and
other
public
locations
where
homeless,
gather
just
for
your
information
that
came
out
of
the
october
12th
meeting,
and
that
was
from
city
manager
clifton
regarding
homelessness
in
the
city.
D
C
C
C
Quickly,
I
have
not
received
my
certificate
of
completion
from
our
training.
I
have
reached
out
to
our
contact
at
the
county
riverside
to
ask
about
that.
I
don't
know
if
commissioner
flood
or
romeron
have
received
theirs,
and
I
also
don't
know
if
the
next.
Let
me
just
say
that
the
next
phase
of
the
process
of
mediation
would
be
to
sit
in
with
the
small
claims
court
process,
because,
typically
that's
where
the
mediation
comes
in
is
in
the
small
claims
situation.
C
However,
I
believe
that,
having
completed
our
training
that
we
would
be
eligible
to
do
some
community
mediation,
which
is
what
the
the
human
rights
commission
would
ask
of
us,
so
I
just
wanted
to
I
I
did
ask
both
commissioner
ramirez
and
flood
earlier
today
what
the
status
was
with
them.
I
saw
that
my
email
got
to
them
really
late,
so
I
apologize
for
that,
but
if
you
have,
if
you
can
chime
in
on
this
either
of
you,
I
would
appreciate.
A
C
Him
back
to
including
me
in,
and
she
said
well
sorry,
but
someone
else
beat
me
to
it,
and
so
that's
all
I
know
about
that.
She's,
also
hoping
that
the
small
claims
could
resume
soon,
but
I
did
get
a
certificate
for
the
classroom.
I
got
that
about
a
month
ago.
I
guess:
okay,
okay,
thank
you
and,
and
commissioner.
E
C
Okay,
okay
and
thank
you
for
that
and
then
jay.
I
guess
just
a
question
for
you:
is
the
city
interested
in
the
human
rights
commission
providing
that
service
to
the
small
claims
court
system,
or
are
we
just
kind
of
focusing
on
community
mediation
with
regard
to
the
things
that
might
come
with
us
before
us.
B
I
don't
think
the
city
would
want
to
be
involved
with
a
small
claims
court
just
for
various
liability
purposes
and
having
the
city
that
you,
a
city
representatives,
taking
a
position
there.
So
yes,
more
so
for
community
mediation,
and
I
think
you
know,
will
that
may
come
up
again
as
we
talk
about
our
priority
matrix,
because
I
think
that
mediation
came
up
a
little
bit
in
that
and
I
think
what
we
called
fostering
communication
between
various
parties
and
cities.
A
A
Okay,
I
we
had
a
little
power
outage,
so
I
dialed
in
on
another
line.
I
think
the
next
item-
I
don't
have
the
agenda
in
front
of
me
right
now,
but
I
think
we
were
going
into
the
discussion
of
our
priority
goals
that
we
are
suggesting
to
city
manager,
realizing
that
the
synopsis
of
thought
and
conversation
was
just
sent
out
before
this
meeting.
A
A
Which
was
gentrification,
which
really
came
back
to
working
conditions,
affordable
housing,
pay,
living
wage
and
str's
they're.
All
those
items
are
linked
together
and
then
the
other
we
had
another,
a
number
of
items
or
core
areas
that
we
were
talking
about.
One
was
being
involved
with
the
diversity,
equity
and
inclusion
policies
and
guidelines
for
the
city
of
palm
springs
and
being
able
to
are
being
involved
with
the
city
manager
on
putting
those
in
place.
A
A
D
C
A
A
C
A
E
A
C
A
This
is
all
for
our
input,
so
please
do
not
feel
that
we,
we
cannot
adjust
this.
So
the
rationale
is
that
we
must
first
ensure
our
house
is
in
order
before
we
can
effectively
fulfill
our
duties
of
maintaining
contact
with
human
relations
agencies,
other
public
agencies
and
representatives
of
employers,
labor
unions,
property
owner
associations,
professional
associations,
national
origin
groups,
community
organizations
concerned
with
interracial
interreligious
and
intercultural
understanding
is
as
the
rationale
for
this
purpose
and
measures
of
success.
C
A
D
C
That's
much
better,
mr
chair,
by
the
way,
it's
really
clearly
explained
in
the
priority
that
working
with
city
managers.
So
if
this
is
a
process
and
we're
working
with
city
manager,
there's
it
has
to
be
the
possibility
of
having
it
fully
integrated
right,
because
we've
been
working
with
city
manager
all
along
so.
A
A
A
A
Okay,
so
item
two
was
the
one
that
as
I
as
I
thought
about
it,
a
lot
of
our
comment.
Discussion
previously
focused
around,
as
I
said
earlier,
the
the
issues
of
living,
wage
working
conditions,
affordable
housing,
gentrification,
the
str
industry
in
general,
flight
of
black
and
brown
families
and
and
homelessness.
A
So
you
know
when
we
look
at
what
that
that
core
we
want
to
summarize
the
core
category.
There
was
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
topics
to
issue.
Are
a
lot
of
topics
for
us
to
try
to
tackle,
probably
way
more
than
is
even
feasible
for
us
to
look
at
for
12
or
11
months?
Actually,
so
I
we're
looking
at
a
pared-down
priority
of
living,
wage
and
impacts
on
affordable
housing
and
how
this
is
impacted
by
short-term
rental
industry.
A
A
Yeah
and-
and
I
think
that's
a
that's-
you
know
really,
how
do
we
measure
such
a
huge
topic
and
something
that,
in
you
know
that
we
can
be
involved
from
an
educational
standpoint?
We
can
be
involved
from
an
awareness
standpoint.
We
can
assist
the
city
council
from
information
advocacy,
so
there's
there's
some
ways
that
we
can
be
involved.
A
D
Not
only
tells
the
mayor
and
city
council
how
we
have
looked
at
these
topics
and
we've
concluded.
This
is
how
it
they
impact
the
working
class
of
our
community
and,
in
addition
here
are
some
recommended
actions.
We
would
suggest
mayor
or
city
manager
or
city
council
you
consider,
which
would
then
produce
the
following
outcomes.
I
mean,
I
think,
that's,
maybe
all
we
can
produce
that.
Would
then
in
11
months
we
could
put
before
them
that
says:
hey,
we
did
look.
We
took
this
priority.
C
You
know
that
that
would
be
something
that
that
we
could
provide.
That
would
be
helpful
to
them,
I'm
sure
in
making
decisions,
and
also
it's
not
just
the
working
class,
it's
every
class.
I
mean
when
you
break
this
down
you.
You
know
that
I
mean
the
the
lack
of
the
lack
of
the
housing
just
accessible.
C
C
I
was
following
exactly
in
the
same
train
of
thought.
It
starts
to
feel
a
little
bit
like
a
a
research
report
with
some
data
looking
at
the
numbers
and
if
we're
going
to
be
measuring
outcomes,
we
we've
got
to
be
able
to
look
at
numbers
and
perhaps
set
up
some
targets
that
can
be
looked
at
from
a
statistical
data
perspective.
D
D
Maybe
we
include
somewhere
in
here
that
we're
looking
at
the
impact
of
these
things
living
wage
lack
of
living
wage,
I
think,
is
really
what
we're
looking
at
the
lack
of
a
living
wage,
affordable
housing,
homelessness,
short-term
rental
industry,
on
the
quality
of
life,
maybe
of
the
many
diverse
communities
in
our
city,
or
something
like
that,
so
that
we
capture
not
just
working
class,
but
it's
many
of
the
various
communities
that
make
up
the
city
of
palm
springs.
Sure
something
like
that.
I'm
typing
it
in
the
chat.
So
thank
you.
C
Yes,
and
relating
to
that,
I
want
to
say,
I
think
we
should
say
something
like
well
living
wage,
affordable,
housing,
homelessness,
homelessness,
short,
short
term
rentals.
Why
do
we
want
to
target
the
industry
really
targeting
the
short-term
rentals
and
not
all
of
them
are
industry
related?
We
have
independent
people,
individuals,
renting,
making
short-term
rentals.
So
the
industry
is
like
a
broad
nationwide
type
of
thing.
You've
got
companies
who
are
in
the
industry,
and
we
should
say
how
these
and
other
issues.
A
E
E
E
I
think
the
brown
skin
tone
gets
overlooked
a
lot
for
some
reason.
I
think
it
gets
hidden
in
the
the
art
behind
me.
I
I
appreciate
this
conversation
because
I
think
this
priority
is
at
best,
like,
I
think,
we're
trying
to
definitely
iron
out
something
that's
very,
very
important.
I
think
that
the
core
of
it
is
that,
if
we
think
of
it
from
like
this
is
me
personally
from
a
human
rights
commission
point
of
view
that
we're
talking
about
you
know
addressing
these
things
that
are
clearly
a
you
know
related.
E
You
know
housing
as
well
as
homelessness
class,
and
I
think
I
think
this
priority
of
class
is
is
actually
very,
very,
very
telling
and
very
important.
So
what
I
would
suggest
and-
and
I
think-
and
I
think
that's
why
the
discussion
is
talking
about.
Why
are
we
talking
specifically
about
str
when,
in
fact
you
know
our
conversation
is
on
a
sort
of
you
know?
Maybe
that's
because
it's
specifically
about
looking
at
that
industry
or
those
folks
who
can
actually
afford
or
who
have
the
ability
to
be
part
of
the
str
industry.
E
But
I
think
what
we're
talking
about
is
really
uplifting
poor
and
you
know
and
the
homeless.
You
know
that's
one
of
the
things
I'm
looking
at
in
terms
of
the
core
of
what
we're
looking
at
here.
You
know
it's
people
who
can
work.
People
cannot
work
people
who
don't
have
a
home
people.
Don't
have
you
know
the
ability
to
like
even
rent
out
their.
You
know,
house
they
don't
they
don't
have
that
ability.
E
So
I
think
we're
tackling
a
couple
things
that
or
three
things,
maybe
at
the
same
time
and
I'm
worried
that
it
may
get
lost
because
I
think,
what's
at
the
core
of
this
is
we're
trying
to
really
say:
hey
we're
the
human
rights
commission
and
we
want
to.
We
not
only
want
to
address
homelessness,
but
we
we
want
to
wholeheartedly.
E
You
know
you
know
see
how
we
can
represent.
You
know
the
homeless
class
in
palm
springs.
I
mean
this.
Is
it's
a
very
very
it's
at
the
core
of
what
I'm
trying
to
think
about
in
terms
of
this
and
I'm
trying
to
figure
out
how
this
I
I
don't
know
why
I
feel
come
to
uncomfortable
with
what
what's
listed
there
only
because
it's
sort
of
like
okay,
let's
do
our
our
shopping
list,
but
I
don't
want
it
to
be
a
shopping
list
and
I
want
it
to
be
in
this
really
strong
statement.
E
E
That's
a
great
I
mean
that's
a
great
question,
because
I
think
it's
about
really.
You
know
when
you
think
about
hey.
If
we're
going
to
talk
about
a
certain
class
who
isn't
even
in
at
the
table,
I
mean
this
is
what
we're
talking
about.
The
the
measure
of
success
is
that
the
homeless
are
at
this
table.
Discussing
this,
you
know
we're
we're
all
housed
people
here,
I
believe
as
commissioners.
We
all
have
this
level
of
privilege,
but
we
don't
have
the
liaison
I
mean
we
do
have.
E
We
do
address
it
in
terms
of
our
ad
hoc
committees
or
delays
on
committees,
but
I
think
we
need
to
really
really
really
prioritize
that
how
do
we
have
the
underclass
or
the
so-called
underclass
or
the
the
the
overlooked
and
underrepresented
classes
in
at
the
table?
And
you
know
that's
one
of
the
look.
If
we
could
get
a
student
representative,
we
could
have
a
representative
that
could
really
address
these
priorities
that
we're
talking
about.
Maybe
that's
what
I'm
thinking
about.
E
That's
it's
a
good
point,
but
I
I
think
that's
that's
where
we
as
a
commission
put
that
at
the
again
at
the
fore
of
our
thinking
like
that.
We're
always
you
know,
maybe
I'm
thinking
on
a
very
grand
scale
in
terms
of
like
conceptually
like
how
our
mission
statement,
you
know
again,
like
maybe
re-prioritizes
itself
as
well.
Maybe
that's
the
way
you
know
to
do
it.
In
this
case
I
mean
we
do
have
our
task
force.
A
Well,
keep
keep
the
thought
process
going,
because
if
we
want
to,
if
we're,
if
we're
going
to
address
an
issue,
we
we
need
to
identify
how.
How
is
our
work
going
to
fit
within
the
work
of
city
council,
the
task
force
that's
already
established,
and
then
how
do
we
do
something
that
is
going
to
be
of
significance
that
will
really
bring
about
a
positive
solution
to
whatever
we're
tackling?
C
A
A
B
And
I
would
also
add
you
know
this
group
is
speaking
of,
I
think
broader
issues,
we're
looking
at
short-term
rentals
gentrification
and
these
topics
really
haven't
come
up
at
the
homeless
task
force
level
at
that
level,
it's
more
about
resources,
who's.
Doing
what
and
you
know
what
are
each
of
those
respective
groups
who
participate
in
that
meeting,
doing
to
assist
with
homelessness,
as
opposed
to
this
broader
level
of
you
know,
are
you
know
what
factors
are
impacting
housing
values
in
palm
springs?
E
E
You
know
it
prioritized
in
the
in
its
agenda,
for
instance
on
at
the
city
council
meetings,
and
I-
and
I
think
that
I
think
that
was
one
of
the
things
that
was
really
really
bothering
me
personally
as
a
commissioner,
because
I
saw
that
even
our
own
officials
were
using
a
slideshow
that
depicted
the
homeless
community
in
a
very,
very
negative
way.
So
I
I'm
looking
it's
at
the
core
of
what
city
government
is
to
really
uplift.
E
Those
who
are
who
don't
have
the
resources-
and
you
know
we're
talking
about
a
task
force
that
yeah
that
does
look
look
at
resources,
but
we're
looking
at
it
from
a
human
rights
point
of
view
like
if
our
own
government
can't
even
say
hey.
You
know
these
this
slideshow
is
is
offensive.
Then
we
have
an
issue.
You
know,
that's
that's
a
very,
very
like
at
the
core
of
our
our
being,
as
you
know,
of
citizens
in
the
city.
E
You
know
like
what
does
it
mean
to
have
a
task
force
that
actually
uses
slides
that
are
effective?
You
know
like
we
have
to
think
of
that
kind
of
stuff,
and
I
think
that
is
at
the
core
of
what
we're
talking
about
like
how
do
we,
for
you
know,
put
it
at
the
four
of
our
thinking
that
you
know
we
care,
and
I
think
that's
that's
what
I'm
looking
for.
A
A
C
A
C
Don't
it
seems
it's
a
tough,
it's
a
tough
one,
but
the
only
thing
that
I
wanted
to
add
is
that
I
think
employability
being
employed
should
be
part
of
the
the
equation,
as
well
as
the
priority,
because
to
the
degree
that
people
are
employed,
earning
a
living
wage
right
and
affording
housing
should
be
part
of
the
equation.
So
I
don't
know
that
that
is,
that
is
that
component
is
kind
of
missing
from
the
priority.
A
C
It
feels
like
part
of
the
the
equation:
if
you're,
not
retired,
earning
a
sustainable
income
from
retirement,
you
need
to
have
a
job,
and
if
you
don't
have
a
job,
you
won't
be
able
to
earn
a
living
wage
and
you
won't
be
able
to
afford
housing.
So
I
think
that
that
is
something
that
is
missing
from
from
this
priority
and
there
should
be
data
to
demonstrate
that
it's,
it's
all
interwoven
and
it's
interconnected.
C
I'm
facing
on
a
daily
basis-
and
you
know,
working
for
the
sbdc-
is
obviously
employability.
A
lot
of
people
can't
hire
they're
not
able
to
to
get
new
employees
because
they're,
just
paying
you
know
like
minimum
wages,
and
that
obviously
is
going
to
cause
a
lot
of
folks
that
not
be
able
to
make
enough
money
to
pay
for
affordable
housing,
and
I
think
that's
that's
missing
from
from
this.
From
this
priority.
A
C
A
This
is
so
broad
and,
and
we've
had
some
good,
you
know
good
conversation
on
it.
You
know
I
I'll
further
the
the
measure
of
success.
You
know
the
you
know
my
the
the
thought
process
I
was
using.
We
can
only
do
and
and
and
bring
about
some
success
and
and
truly
be
successful.
I
think
is
if
we're
working
toward
what
the
city
council
has
said
as
a
priority.
A
A
A
A
B
A
Okay,
so
I
see
larry,
it
says
west
coast
with
a
capital
c,
so
it's
larry
west
coast
in
the
chat.
You
say
that
you're,
a
member
of
the
community
partnership
on
homelessness,
and
do
you
want
to
share
your
thoughts
on
where
the
commission
focus
could
be
on
setting
priorities
for
22
and
how?
How
could
we
set
a
priority
that
can
really
be
a
beneficial.
D
E
D
Success,
I
guess
I'm
trying
to
tie
our
priorities
to
our
mission
statement
and
like
keep
seeing
this.
You
know
our
mission
is
improving
human
relations
and
I
think
we
all
agree
that
human
relations
right
now
in
our
city
are
not
very
good
so,
possibly
because
of
all
the
these
topics
we've
identified
in
you
know,
maybe
what
our
contribution
is
to
attack
these
topics
from
that
human
relations
perspective.
C
C
Are
we
assuming
that
the
entire
homeless
population
wants
traditional
housing,
that
they
want
the
services
that
that
we're
suggesting
for
them?
And
where
would
we
be
in
terms
of
advocating
for
somebody's
legal
right
to
not
be
housed
to
be
on
the
street?
I
don't
know
it's
just
a
question
because
you
know
I
just
returned
from
a
trip
to
portland,
where
oh,
my
gosh,
the
whole
landscape
is
nothing
but
homeless.
C
People
in
the
city
in
the
suburbs,
on
the
freeway
sides,
the
the
tents,
the
trash,
the
abandoned
property,
things
like
that
and
you
know
they're
calling
it
a
social
crisis
and
it's
it's
frightening
for
them
and
the
the
impact
on
their
infrastructure
and
their
their
population.
But
you
know
as
a
visitor,
I'm
thinking.
Oh,
my
gosh.
C
This
could
be
us,
you
know
in
a
matter
of
time.
I
don't
know,
I
don't
know,
but
yet
at
the
same
time
you
know
not,
everybody
wants
what
we
ourselves
decide
and
that's
not
a
class
thing.
It's
it's
just
a
matter
of
fact.
Not
everyone
wants
what
we
believe
to
be
a
good
life,
or
do
you
know
what
I'm
saying,
and
I
don't
know
where
we
fall
with
respect
to
advocating
for
those
folks
as
well.
A
Yeah
yeah
for
people
listening,
we
don't
want
anyone
to
think
that
that
we're
our
priority
or
our
discussion
is,
is
setting
a
standard
that
we
would
assume
would
be
acceptable
by
all
people.
I
think
we're
just
saying
we're
just
saying
we
want
to
address
an
issue.
You
know
the
topic
and
the
topic
of
homelessness
includes
everything
commissioner
andrade
just
said,
and
under
complete
understanding
that
some
people
would
will
will
want
access
to
services
and
support
and
other
people
will
choose
not
to
and
and
they
have
a
right
everything
there's
there's.
A
There's
rights
of
individuals
involved
there.
So
we,
if
we're,
if
we're
addressing
an
issue,
we
want
to
be
looking
at
all
sides
of
it
and
not
take
a
you
know
we're
not
giving
in
an
opinion
that
it
has
to
be
this
way.
I
think
that
was
you
know,
generally
a
consensus
from
commission.
Is
it's
we're
tackling
an
overall
topic
which
needs
to
move
forward
with
an
understanding
you
know
of
of
at
the
core
of
what
commissioner
andrade
just
said.
A
And
we're
not
defining
thank
you
larry
we're
we're
not
defining
where
somebody
is
lives
in
homelessness,
where
we're
we're
just
addressing
a
subject.
So
it's
very
broad,
it's
very
big,
and
so
we're
not
we're.
Not
we're
not
saying
that
you
know
everybody
it
just
because
someone
who
is
in
the
park
is
the
only
type
of
homeless
person
that
is
there,
someone
who's
living
in
their
car
or
someone
that
doesn't
have
a
place
to
stay.
That's
going
couchsurfing
from
night
to
night.
A
Yeah
and-
and
you
know,
commissioner
vignall-
I
think
if,
if
you
could
put
the
you
know
the
words
that
you
were
you
were,
you
had
a
little
structure
there
on
providing
city
council
analysis,
just
you,
you
worded
it
in
a
good
way.
I
think
that
feeds
what
our,
what
our
purpose
is
in
in
why
the
commission
is
is
the
ordinance
is
even
in
place
that
we
have
a
commission?
A
A
D
D
D
They
are
now
they
have.
They
have
degraded
our
not
only
diversity
in
our
city,
but
human
relations
in
our
city
and
until
we
address
and
tackle
these
issues
with
concrete
actions
to
build
up
human
relations,
I
mean
that's.
I
think
what
our
mission
is
to
help
identify
the
problem,
particularly
how
it's
negatively
impacted
human
relations
in
our
city
and
provide
the
city
council
with
the
information,
analysis
and
recommendations
and
how
changes
in
policy
going
forward
would
improve,
would
elevate.
Our
communities
would
enhance
human
relations
in
our
communities.
A
All
right,
let's,
let's
put
a
period
on
it
right
now,
so
let's
catch
up
so
pro
it's
to
provide
city,
council,
the
analysis
and
resources
or
analysis
and
recommendation
of
how
these
topics-
and
I
I
feel
that
if
we
say
degraded,
we're
we're
already
slanting
the
the
topic
of
our
conversation,
how
these
topics
impact
the
diversity
of
our
community
and
the
state
of
human
relations
in
our
city.
Now,
commissioner,
andrade,
does
this
impact
the
diversity
of
our
community?
You
use
you
use
different
words.
C
C
A
D
Well,
how
about
if
we
provide
them
with
the
framework
for
the
development,
subsequent
development
of
policies,
to
address
these
topics,
so
we're
not
giving
them
the
recommendations,
we're
just
giving
them
some
a
framework
I'm
trying
to
otherwise
they'll,
just
I'm
afraid
to
just
take
the
information
and
then
what
trying
to
do
our?
How
can
we
best
help
them
going
forward
by
giving
just
information,
or
are
we
better
off
giving
them
information
and
kind
of
next
steps?
City,
council?
A
A
A
Approved
priority
list
for
2022,
because
if
we're
not
working
toward
their
priority,
then
we're
not
going
to
see
it's
highly
unlikely
that
we're
going
to
see
effective
policy
change.
But
if
we're
working
toward
their
priority,
we
can
really
provide
a
service
to
them
that
will
bring
about
a
potential
policy
impact
or
have
potential
policy
impacts.
A
A
A
B
Mr
chair,
just
a
concept
to
be
aware
of
that
quality.
Affordable
housing
may
may
be
helpful
as
a
descriptor,
because
housing
can
be
affordable
if
it's
overcrowded
and
that's
one
of
the
problems
we
see
is
multiple
families
crowding
into
garages
and
such
just
because
of
affordable
housing
and
so
with
a
few
income.
That's
affordable
but
may
not
be
quality.
E
I
think
a
lot
did
need
some
massaging,
but
this
is
a
difficult.
This
is
a
really
difficult
one.
To
be
very
frank,
and
I
appreciate
this
because
I
think,
where
the
talk
the
talk
about
living,
wage
versus
employability,
we're
really
to
our
workforce,
employability,
that's
we're
getting
into
some
really,
you
know,
nitty-gritty
of
like
hey,
you
know,
just
like
quality,
affordable
housing
is
wording
that
I
think
is,
is
more
sensitive
to
what
we're
talking
about,
but
but
I'm
sure
I'm
thinking
that
there
there's
wording
that
could
actually
incorporate.
You
know
what
you
know.
E
The
the
discussion
about
living
wage
is
about
what
you
know
what
you
know.
The
discussion
was
very
much
brought
up.
I
believe
when
commissioner
shepard
talked
about,
for
instance
like
the
fight
for
15,
I
think
that
there's
a
real
level
of
like
looking
at
what
is
a
living
wage
in
the
city
of
palm
springs.
What
does
it
even
mean?
You
know
a
living
wage
in
this
in
this
in
this
you
know
priority,
but
I
think
the
employability
that
commissioner
loyola
was
bringing
up.
Is
it
actually
takes
talks
about
something
else?
E
You
know
there's
again
that
that
talks
about
a
quality
of
of
employees
or
a
quality
of
a
class
of
employees,
so
I'm
trying
to
I'm
trying
to
reconcile
that,
but
I
I
think
we're
getting
somewhere,
but
I
think
this
is
a
very
you
know
this
list
that
includes
short-term
rental,
all
of
a
sudden
it
just
it
almost
kind
of
it's
almost
kind
of
a
weird,
it's
kind
of
a
weird
list.
If
to
be
honest,
I'm
just
kind
of
struggling,
so
I
hope
we
could
massage
it
more.
A
So
so
short-term
rentals,
I
believe
we
addressed
the
whole
reason
why
that
that
is
impacting
housing.
It's
impacting
affordability,
it's
impacting
access
the
rental
market,
so
the
the
the
conversation
of
short-term
rentals
has
had
a
tremendous
impact
on
the
community
and
people's
ability
to
to
get
housing.
So
that
directly
goes
to
many
of
the
topics
you've
been
raising
tonight.
A
E
I
believe
so
I
I
think
it's
incorporating
that.
I
think
one
of
the
things
that
you
brought
up
in
the
list
earlier
is
that
our
conversation
also
included
a
broader
thing
of
gentrification,
so
that
again
gentrification
could
be
about
the
the
the
the
movement
of
certain
classes
within
a
city.
You
know
a
municipal
reality
like
in
my
neighborhood,
like,
if
you
think
of
like
an
of
a
a
more
wealthy
class
that
moves
into
a
neighborhood
for
instance.
So
how
do
we
you
know?
How
do
we
talk
about
that
without
having
to
say?
D
Well,
that's,
okay!
I
guess
it
was
doing
in
the
chat.
Sorry,
I
just
wanted
to
say
I
I
think
the
topics
as
they're
written
under
priority
are
fine.
I
think
I
appreciate
commissioner
rameron.
Am
I
saying
that
right
comments?
I
think,
for
the
purposes
of
producing
this
priority
matrix,
I
think
you've
captured
what
new
and
emerging
topics
this
group
will
address
in
2022.
A
A
A
A
Yes,
okay,
so
if
we
can
are
do
we
we've
gone
through
number
one
we've
gone
through
number
two:
this
is
the
meat
of
what
we've
been
asked
to
provide
item.
Two
is
an
awful
big
ask
item.
One
on
itself
is
an
awful
big
ask,
or
do
so
they're
two
very,
very
big
priorities,
so
we
may
you
know,
come
back
and
and
give
it
a
little
further
analysis
on
our
own
side
and
decide.
A
Okay,
I
got
a
thumbs
up,
we
got
a
couple
and
yes
on
the
head
nod,
commissioner
andrade.
We
got
a
head
nod.
We
got
a
thumbs
up,
commissioner,
claire
okay,
great
so
so
jay
you
and
I
can
finalize
this
and
fill
in
the
rest
of
the
blanks.
I
think
it
was
just
like
housekeeping
stuff
and
then
we'll
be
able
to
other.
Oh,
are
those
critical
factors
for
success?
A
E
In
the
in
the
last
city
council
meeting,
there
was
a
discussion
and
x.
Actually
it
was
actually
a
good
follow-up
to
our
joint
meeting
with
the
city
council
on
the
section
14
apology,
the
removal
of
this,
the
statue
as
well
as
reparations
in
terms
of
the
conversation
about
reparations,
for
instance.
Actually,
as
you
know,
I
think
everyone
knows
he'll
hear
so.
The
public
conversation
actually
has
has
actually
been
focusing
in
on
that.
This
would
actually
be
something
of
a
critical
factor
right
in
terms
of
or
an
impact
on,
a
budget.
E
A
Well,
I
think
city
council
is
already
they've
already
asked
city
manager
for
recommendation
and
budget
assessment,
so
that
work
is
already
underway
and
the
mayor
brought
out
a
figure
that
others
felt
may
may
be.
Good
may
not
be
enough,
and
that's
why
they've
got
city
this
city
manager,
working
on
coming
back
to
city
council
very
soon,
I
think,
with
an
initial
report.
A
You
know
as
an
assessment
and
then
with
a
plan
on
what
we
would
see
happening
over
the
next
six
plus
months
on
this
process
of
identifying
or
tackling
the
com,
the
conversation
of
reparations.
So
I
think
I'm
not
sure
we
can
add
to
that
right
now.
Unless
we
want
to
say
we
want
to
our
request
to
be
involved
with
city
manager
or
staff
to
be
involved
in
that
work,
because
it's
already
it's
already
identified
and
council's
already
moved
on
it.
E
A
We
must
be
eating
into
dinner
time
hour.
Well,
everybody
well
this
this
we
needed
to
get
this
done,
and
I
appreciate
everybody
taking
the
time
to
to
go
through
it.
It's
and
it
makes
it
a
little
more
challenging
to
work
on
it
this
way,
but
I
think
the
good
part
is
we
were
all
able
to
hear
thoughts
and
how
folks
were
thinking
on.
You
know
different
components
of
this.
So
that's
helpful.
A
A
E
A
B
Robles
did
indicate
she
would
not
be
president
tonight's
meeting.
Thank
you
and
one
more
point
quickly.
Is
that
the
role
of
liaisons,
I
think
we
have
it
just
about
ironed
out,
but
I
want
to
add
that
liaisons
are
not
supposed
to
meet.
They
are
considered
experts
in
their
particular
area.
They
may
inform
the
rest
of
the
commission
on
matters,
but
if
they
begin
meeting
that
would
also
require
some
kind
of
a
public
notice
on
that.
So
just
to
let
you
all
know
that
it's
one
more
complication
on
our
subcommittee
structure.
B
A
A
A
A
E
Great
time
I
did
have
one
commissioner
comment:
if
that's
okay,
I
didn't,
I
didn't
raise
my
hand
fast
enough.
If
that's
okay,
I
wanted
to,
is
there
any
way
that
I
could
share
a
screen
with
an
image
it's
in
regards
to
you
know
american
history
month
as
well
as
indigenous
people's
month.
I
wanted
to
share
this
image
from
a
dear
colleague
and
she's,
been
working
on
a
project
looking
at
the
the
lives
of
the
of
ebay,
fellaiya,
basilia,
malaquita
and
da
dao.
E
There
are
the
ita
moro
and
mangyan
people
who
never
returned
to
the
philippines
after
traveling
to
saint
louis,
for
the
1904
world's
fair.
Many
indigenous
peoples
were
put
on
display
at
the
at
the
exposition
of
that
world's
fair
in
1904,
but
I
wanted
to
pay
homage
to
those
families
and
those
people
who
passed
on
then,
and
we
wanted
to
honor
them
as
our
ancestors
and
speak
aloud,
their
names,
the
ebi
fellaiya
basilia,
balaquido
and
da
dao.
