If this is YOUR meeting, an easy way to fix this is to add a description to your video, wherever mtngs.io found it (probably YouTube).
A
Thank
you
again
for
for
coming
and
we
are
recording
this.
It
will
go
on
YouTube
so
that
everyone
can
see
it.
This
is
the
second
and
what
we
hope
will
be
a
long
number
of
meetings
between
the
city
and
the
deaf
community,
and
we
I
want
to.
Personally.
Thank
you
for
the
turnout
that
we
have
seen
at
our
recent
City
Council
meetings.
It
has
been
a
pleasure
to
look
from
the
diocese
and
see
so
many
individuals
from
the
deaf
and
hard
of
hearing
community
in
the
audience.
B
G
H
H
B
B
The
first
issue
is
on
closed
captioning
and
I
can
give
you
an
update
there
and
the
status
of
the
implementation
of
our
televised
City
Council
meetings,
so
the
contracts
have
been
signed
with
the
company
who's.
Doing
the
closed,
caption
they're
gonna
be
up
and
ready
by
mid-august
is
what
we're
told.
As
you
know,
City
Council
will
be
on
break
in
August,
and
so
when
we
come
back
in
September,
we
will
be
ready
to
go
on
to
those
captioning.
B
B
H
G
E
H
Yeah
and
in
the
event
of
an
earthquake,
if.
H
And
then
I
wanted
to
add
one
more
thing
to
Phil's
comment,
and
that
is
it's
not
just
us
and
deaf
people
in
the
community.
There,
a
lot
of
hard-of-hearing
people
who
live
here
in
the
valley
as
well.
That
will
definitely
benefit
from
the
closed
captioning.
We
have
a
large
senior
citizen,
population
and
late
deafened
people,
and
so
it's
a
much
larger
population.
H
Then
people
might
realize
it's
not
simply
as
completely
deaf
people.
We
are
looking
at
veterans,
we're
looking
at
people
who
become
deaf
later
in
life.
Who've
lived
there,
their
whole
life
snowbirds
that
type
of
thing.
So
it's
a
quite
a
large
population.
It's
not
just
an
insular
population
of
deaf
people
and
different
languages
as
well,
some
speaking
Spanish,
not
just
English,
and
so
we
might
want
to
figure
out
how
to
best
reach
out
to
at
all
of
those.
A
If
you
will
give
me
some
examples
of
issues
that
you've
had
with
closed
captioning
on
news
programs,
locally
I
will
write
a
letter
to
the
general
managers
of
the
local
news
programs
and
describe
what
we're
trying
to
accomplish
here
and
the
issues
that
you've
raised
and
see.
If
that
helps
generate
a
little
bit
more
attention
to
the
issue
at
the
stations
and
all
it
will
do
is
is
let
them
know
that
we're
interested
in
working
on
this.
If
they
have
no
responsibility
to
do
what
we
ask
them
to
do,
but
maybe
it
will
help.
F
Yeah,
the
general
manager
Jean
I,
can
answer
that.
Actually
map
is
saying
for
the
most
part,
when
the
anchors
are
seated
at
their
desks
reading
from
their
teleprompter,
that
teleprompter
is
captioned
but
anytime
that
they
have
to
ad-lib.
There
is
no
captioning
for
that
and
the
reporters
who
are
on
the
street
dealing
with
people
around
them
being
filmed,
live
about
issues
that
are
coming
up.
Those
those
are
also
not
captioned,
so
we
miss
out
on
a
lot
a
lot
of
information.
F
Another
issue
is
that
the
teleprompters,
often
scroll
by
so
quickly
that
you're,
like
it's
just
soup,
and
you
can't
read
it
sometimes
the
pictures
of
the
accidents
or
whatever
are
not
matching
the
actual
content
of
the
captions
or
there's
a
delay
or
the
captions
are
too
early
for
what
is
being
visually
referenced
and
map
is
saying,
so
you
can
see
it
for
yourself.
You
can
have
your
own
experience
of
that
later.
F
If
you
turn
on
your
TV
and
try
to
turn
off
the
sound
and
depend
exclusively
on
the
captions
you'll
see
for
yourself
for
in
a
30
minute
period,
you'll
get
you'll
get
this
experience
that
we
have
you.
Don't
have
to
take
our
word
for
it.
Try
it
out
you're
on
your
own
and
Philip
is
saying
hearing.
It
is
very
different,
then
you
have
to
in
order
to
run
the
test
correctly.
You
have
to
turn
the
sound
off
all
the
way
and
be
dependent
exclusively
on
the
captions.
F
B
H
B
Myself
but
they
do
receive
some
city
funding
now
Lisa
help
me
here,
I
think.
Certainly
we
certainly
could
request
that
they
do
that
that
you
know
to
what
extent
they're
able
to
provide
what
interpreters
for
all
their
programs.
I
don't
know,
but
maybe
if
you
could
give
us
some
examples
of
maybes
that
there's
specific
things
that
we
could
focus
on.
H
Sure,
Richard
bass
is
often
providing
lectures
at
Mizell
in
relation
to
preparations
of
death
for
wills,
so
forth
I
as
a
community
member
would
like
to
go
that
and
I
asked
Richard
for
an
interpreter
there
at
myself
they
refused
to
provide.
They
said
it
was
up
to
me
to
bring
my
own
and
pay
out
of
pocket
for
that
type
of
thing,
yoga
the
instructions
on
how
to
actually
do
yoga.
There's
no
interpreter
provided
for
things
like
that.
H
F
G
B
That
would
be
greatly
said,
because
I
can
envision
that
a
wee
purpose,
a
portion
of
their
grant
for
interpreter
surfaces
when
they're
asked-
or
maybe
we
even
could
up
it
a
little
bit
for
that
of
a
specific
grant
for
interpretive
services,
so
that
would
be
one
gonna
fall.
Lisa
will
take
the
lead
on
that
and
I
will
follow
up.
H
They
took
the
initiative
themselves
to
do
that,
which
we
appreciate
so
very
much
because
we're
neighbors
of
this
city
and
for
me
I
mean
I,
would
like
to
be
able
to
go
there
and
do
that
and
I'm
wondering.
Why
don't
other
organizations
such
as
myself
take
the
initiative?
And
why
do
we
constantly
have
to
push
and
push
and
advocate
for
it.
G
G
H
International
Palm
Springs,
International,
Film,
Festival,
often
they'll,
invite
directors,
they'll
invite
actors
and
they'll
give
presentations
after
the
movie
to
discuss
the
movie
and
many
of
the
deaf
attendees
snowbirds
and
locals
would
like
to
participate
in
that.
But
the
problem
is:
there's
no
communication,
access,
no
interpreters
and
so
I
think
it's
important
to
advertise,
which
particular
movies
will
have
speakers
with
interpreters
so
that
we
could
pick.
H
You
know
that
film,
instead
of
going
to
one
that
we're
not
sure
if
there's
gonna
be
access
or
not
so
I
do
appreciate
the
the
newsletter,
the
magazine
that
a
newspaper
type
thing
that
comes
out
and
they
show
it's
called
deep.
F
deaf-friendly,
that's
their
deaf
friendly
symbol
and
it
says
deaf
friendly
films.
That's
wonderful,
that's
a
great
resource
for
me
and
prevents
us
from
picking
the
wrong
movie
to
go
and
see.
So
it's
not
nice
to
go
to
a
movie
and
not
be
able
to
follow.
H
B
It
is
it
possible
that,
for
like
the
lectures
and
things
they
have
after
the
Film
Festival
during
the
film
festival
period,
that
it
would
be
it
you
requested
to
go
to
specific
ones
that
they
would
have
interpreters
for
those
that
you've
requested.
Would
that
be
the
path
were
trying
to
get
them
to
do.
H
Well,
you
know
the
newspaper
I'm
talking
about
they'll
actually
say
you
know
if
you
still
want
to
see
this
film.
If
you
want
to
see
this
presentation,
you
have
to
request
an
interpreter
if
they
did
that.
That
would
help
the
committee
plan
better.
So
if
they
put
that
in
there,
so
if
there
were
could
have
you
know
like
several
of
them,
you
know
during.
H
B
They
do
that
now.
Have
you
had
experience
with
the
Film
Festival?
Will
they
do
that?
You
know
they
doubt
they
have
not
done
it
again.
So
is
the
city
is
a
title
sponsor
of
the
Film
Festival?
Certainly
at
least
I
think
we
something
we
could
pass
of
the
chairman,
who
would
probably
be
open
to
this'll,
be
my
belief.
C
H
H
H
Did
you
want
to
share
the
story
about
the
art,
museum,
Mary,
Ann
or
well?
You
might
know
more
about
that
Philip.
So
go
ahead.
So
when
I
first
moved
here,
I
came
into
Palm
Springs
at
that
Museum
of
Art
and
I'm
an
art
fanatic,
myself,
okay,
so
I
went
in
there
and
I
asked
for
an
interpreter
said
no.
We
don't
do
that
and
I
said
well.
Do
you
have
a
script
now
we
don't
do
that
either
and
I
thought.
G
H
Not
interested
in
that,
so
it
was
a
barrage
of
nose,
no,
no,
no,
and
they
seem
to
just
be
too
busy
with
too
many
other
things
too.
I
got
busy
with
so
many
other
things
that
asked
for
that.
But
there
was
one
person
who
came
to
Palm
Springs,
a
woman,
and
she
got
the
same
thing
from
the
music
and
when
she
asked
for
that
same
response
and
she
decided
to
file
with
the
Department
of
Justice.
H
This
was
two
three
years
later.
Finally,
a
letter
was
sent
to
the
museum,
and
lo
and
behold
now
they're
providing
interpreters.
It
is
wonderful.
I
have
taken
tremendous
advantage
of
that
of
the
interpreters
and
the
guided
tours
all
that.
It's
been
wonderful
so,
and
they
should
promote
that.
Actually.
H
For
example,
there
was
one
about
high
heels
that
did
you
see
that
exhibit
anybody
there.
It
was
fabulous,
what's
so
interested
in
that
one,
how
they
designed
them
based
on
function
and
things
like
that
architecture,
because
architecture
also
and
they're
fairly
well-known
architects
that
have
designed
some
shoes,
which
I
thought
was
really
interesting.
B
H
Work
I
think
we're
good
on
that
from
now
there
might
be
more
later,
there's
probably
more
out
there,
but
let's
focus
on
some
of
these
key
issues,
given
our
limited
time
it,
for
example,
senior
citizen
housing,
other
programmatic
program
services,
I'm
accessible.
So
we
can
put
the
organizations
on
hold
and
move
on
with
the
agenda,
but
this
is
just
kind
of
getting
your
feet
a
little
bit
wet.
G
E
I
just
want
to
last
night
at
the
council
meeting
we
did
have
interpreters
there,
but
there
was
no
one
from
the
deaf
community
present
and
so
I
just
wanted
to
remind
that,
starting
at
the
next
council
meeting.
If
we
get
a
request,
we'll
provide
an
interpreter,
but
unless
we
don't,
if
we
don't
get
a
request,
we're
going
to
go
ahead
and
counsel
the
interpreter.
B
H
H
I
did
not
know
that
I
was
actually
told,
I
think
about
last
night's
meeting
some
time
ago
saying
from
now
on
it
will
be
upon
request.
Oh
okay
and
I
am
sorry
that
I
just
understood
no.
E
B
H
G
G
F
H
Can
you
repeat
that
please
Phillip
was
looking
at
the
agenda
and
he
missed
what
the
interpreter
was
signing
the
oyster
said
that
so,
if
you
could
go
ahead.
B
B
B
They
said
that
they
had
no
one
deaf
person
who
inquired
by
unemployment
but
never
received
any
acknowledgement
or
response
and
I
don't
know
if
there's,
if
that's
a
specific
example
that
you
want
to
talk
about,
but
just
why
don't?
We
start
generally,
how
we
process
an
application
for
a
deaf
person
and
what
has
been
our
experience?
Okay,.
I
Yeah
I
can
talk
generally
how
it
works.
Our
application
process
is
electronic
for
all
applicants
and
part
of
the
process
for
anyone
within
requesting
an
accommodation,
regardless
of
what
that
may
be
a
hearing
impairment,
any
kind
of
accommodation
and
learning
disability.
There's
there's
them
a
questionnaire.
I
That's
attached
to
our
applications,
it's
confidential,
so
we
ask
anybody
that
would
need
an
accommodation
if
they,
if,
if
they
would
need
one
and
what
that
may
be,
and
if
there
is
a
special
accommodation,
we
give
them
several
options
to
reach
out
to
us,
and
let
us
know
what
that
is.
We
give
them
in.
In
this
case,
we
give
them
a
phone
number.
We
also
have
a
TDD
line.
We
have
an
email,
we
give
them
all
of
that
information
which
is
confidential.
I
We
also
run
reports
prior
in
during
the
application
process,
which
we
would
look
at
if
they're
going
to
be
going
through
any
testing
if
they
were,
if
they've
requested,
an
accommodation.
I've
looked
at
it
prior
to
today's
meeting.
If
anyone
requested
any
type
of
hearing,
accommodation
and
we've
had
eight
in
the
last
four
years
that
are
requested,
an
accommodation
that
we've
reached
out
to
intervene
in
contact
with
most
of
those
individuals
requested
some
sort
of
accommodation,
whether
it
be
in
the
testing
process,
or
they
ended
up
not
needing
an
accommodation.
I
They
just
wanted
to
make
us
aware
of
it
that
they
may
need
an
accommodation
in
the
employment
process.
Should
they
get
far
enough
along.
There
may
be
some
sort
of
request
for
essential
function
review,
so
we
were
aware
of
a
tile
case,
but
we
do
provide
reach
out
to
those
applicants
who
have
noticed
us.
So
we
try
to
make
as
much
opportunity
available
on
our
website.
We
have
TDD
lines.
We
have
email
resources
available.
I
Those
are,
we've
had
many
many
requests
for
accommodations,
eight
specific
related
to
hearing.
They
may
not
all
be
deaf,
but
they
had
hearing
related
requests.
They
may
be
just
you
know
some
sort
of
hearing
requests,
maybe
not
all
death,
but
we
pulled
eight
in
the
last
for
years,
specifically
related
to
hearing
requests.
F
F
F
I'm
wondering
if
the
city
of
Palm
Springs
is
trying
to
make
a
real
diaper
and
attempt
to
be
diverse,
of
and
inclusive,
both
racially
gender
orientation,
sexual
orientation
all
that
disability.
If
that's
included
into
the
the
goal
here,
you
have
to
take
a
look
at
how
many
of
each
of
these
demographics
we
have
in
the.
G
B
Would
address
that
first,
we
certainly
spent
a
good
focus
on
ethnicity
and
gender,
and
you
know
higher
practices,
but
what
we
have
not
done
as
good
a
job
is
certainly
on
the
deaf
community
or
the
blind
community
you're
right,
it's
it's
a
cultural
barriers
that
I
can
I
can
just
imagine
what
what's
there.
That
being
said,
I
am
not
certain
what
the
best
practices
are
to
kind
of
break
that
barrier,
at
least
at
City
Hall,
and
you
know,
captain
sergeant.
B
I'm,
sorry
to
be
here
he
can
address
like
so,
for
example,
there's
some
restrictions
on
police
officers.
Some
police
officers
work.
They
can
do
some,
they
can't-
and
you
might
address
that
in
a
moment-
there's
other
certain
other
areas
that
are
more
suited
for
people
who
are
deaf
or
blind
and
and
so
I
don't
know
what
the
best
practices
are
there
parry.
You
may
have
a
better
feel
that,
but
we
would
welcome
your
input.
I
You
know
I,
think
you
know
we
get
the
question
not
often,
but
occasionally
from
individuals
who
may
have
some
sort
of
a
disability
of
whatever
the
nature
may
be,
or
some
sort
of
it
may
be
a
slight
learning
disability.
It
may
be
somebody
that
may
need
accommodation
of
some
sort.
They
come
to
us
and
say
you
know
how
would
I
qualify
for
a
job
or
how
would
I
get
a
job
with
the
city
and
it
really
comes
down
to.
I
We
talked
to
him
about
essential
functions
of
the
job,
so
we
encourage
them
always
to
apply,
go
through
the
process
and
really
it's
a
it's
a
it's
a
process
that
we
encourage
them.
We
really
want
you
to
focus
on
the
essential
functions
of
the
job,
and
some
people
will
come
and
say.
Well,
you
know
I
want
to
be
a
police
officer
and
we
have
to
educate
them
on
you
know.
I
Calif
california
post
has
very
specific
guidelines
up
for
a
police
officer
that
you
know
they
have
strict
requirements,
physical
requirements
that
we
we
have
to
get
through.
So
we
you
know
we'll
provide
them
with
those
that
information.
Those
guidelines
say
these
are
what
the
essential
function.
These
are.
The
hurdles
that
we're
gonna
have
to
get
through
every
applicant
will
have
to
get
you
so
we'll
help
them
with
some
of
those
that
information
to
provide
them
provide
that
to
them.
But
it's
really
like.
Can
you
know
what
these
are
the
essential
functions?
I
You
know
the
applicants
are
going
to
have
to
do
that
now.
In
some
cases,
we'll
have
a
conversation
right
now.
Some
of
these
we
can
it
provide
you
with.
You
know
the
essential
functions
and
we
could
probably
do
with
or
without
a
reasonable
accommodation.
So
we
might
be
able
to
make
some
some.
You
know
combinations
on
how
these
are
performed.
I
So
we
really
want
to
encourage
everybody
to
participate
in
that
process
and
I
think
what
I
think
some
of
the
hurdles
have
been
I've
seen
is
some
people
maybe
get
discouraged
with
some
of
the
jobs
that
they
want
to
do
like
police
and
fire,
but
I
I
will
I've
seen
some
yeah.
Some
applicants
specifically
I've
seen
a
police
officer
applicant
who
had
a
hearing
disability
who
it's
hard
to
talk
about
everybody's
specific
individual
disabilities.
But
he
made
it
through
the
process
with.
G
I
Know
he
was
born
with
a
severe
hearing
disability,
but
he
made
it
all
the
way
through
the
process
got
an
eligible
list.
At
that
time
we
had.
You
know
hundreds
of
applicants.
We
were
testing,
that's
where
tested
800
police
officers
at
a
time
in
a
training
capacity,
and
he
did
very
well.
You
know
at
that
point
where
we
just
you
know
we
were
not
hiring
as
many
officer
we
are
today
he
came
back
today.
He
may
do.
I
He
may
get
much
further
in
the
process
because
we're
hiring
more
officers,
but
you
know
surprisingly,
he
did
well
and
he
got
on
an
eligible
list,
but
he
did
it
with
a
disability,
and
you
know,
but
we
had
you
know
68
people
that
made
it
to
that
process
and
we
only
end
up
hiring
like
one
or
two,
because
we
had
so
many
other
applicants
and
he
you
know
he
scores.
Ultimately,
even
though
we
work
with
people
with
disabilities
and
need
accommodations,
it's
ultimately
it's
a
competitive
process.
F
I
Know
so
it's
a
competitive
process
that
we
just
have
to
work
through,
but
we
encourage
them
always
and
we've
seen
people
do
very
well
in
the
process.
Sometimes
they
just
have
to
come
back
and
try
again,
and
we
just
want
to
keep
encouraging
people
to
do
that.
So
I
think
in
Palm
Springs
we
were
encouraging
of
those
applicants
that
we
just
haven't
seen.
You
know
we
want
to
get
them
to
come
and
apply
more.
We
just
haven't
seen
in
a
lot
of
those
applicants
recently,
so
I
would.
G
F
B
F
Easy
to
communicate
with
it's
sort
of
basic
psychology
right
sort
of
natural
human
reaction,
you're
talking
about
sixty-eight
people
who
made
it
you
know
down
to
the
one
or
two
that
end
up
being
hired
out
of
the
top
five.
Of
course,
if
there's
any
kind
of
additional
effort,
that's
required
to
communicate
with
one
of
the
applicants,
the
tendency
is
going
to
be
this
person
to
use
you
to
communicate
with
so
I'm
gonna
hire
at
that
person.
Well,.
I
Let
me
let
me
explain
the
process
a
little
bit
further
in
government,
it's
a
competitive
process,
so
you
get
on
an
eligible
list
in
government
and
you're,
ranked
based
on
your
scores
and
any
things
in
it
in
a
an
examination
process.
So
we're
like
for
police
example.
They
go
through
a
written
test
which
is
governed
by
post,
which
is
a
California
police
officers
governing
board
per
se,
and
then
they
have
to
go
through
agility,
which
is
scored.
They
have
to
go
through
oral
boards,
which
is
scored.
I
F
F
I
During
that,
and
even
during
that,
if
they
ask
for
an
accommodation,
I'll
just
to
be
clear
if
they
asked
us
for
an
accommodation,
we
could
provide
an
interpreter.
We
could
provide
any
kind
of
assistance
in
which
we
have
done
in
the
past.
Is
someone
asked
for
assistance
or
an
accommodation?
We
will
provide
that,
but
those
scores
are
then
they're
ranked
on
a
list.
So
if
we
have
one
opening-
and
we
have
68
people-
our
personnel
rules
governing
in
the
in
the
process-
that
we
only
refer
five
applicants
from
the
list,
so
you
may
be
68.
I
We
just
have
to
work
through
the
number
of
openings.
We
have
that's
where
we
encourage
people
to
come
back
and
reapply,
because
at
a
different
time
we
may
not
have
as
many
applicants
or
we
may
have
more
openings-
that
we
would
get
further
down
on
a
list.
So
even
though
I
say
you're
on
a
helical
list,
they
only
last
for
so
long.
So
you
may
not
even
get
an
interview
if
you're
farther
down
on
a
list
and
another
help.
So.
B
I
think
maybe
is
the
first
step
towards
that.
We
meet
regularly
for
our
staff
meetings,
where
every
department
had
we
meet,
and
so
people
who
are
generally
responsible
for
all
the
hire
and
city
or
at
that
meeting
it
might
be
helpful
to
have
you
join
us
at
one
of
those
meetings
and
we
talked
about
a
little
bit
about
hiring
practices
and
sensitivity,
so
my
department
heads
can
kind
of
get
a
feel
sort
of
like
these
would
be
twice
three
times
the
size
of
this
in
the
various
departments.
F
I
F
G
G
G
G
F
G
F
D
F
G
G
F
G
G
B
Want
to
move
on
the
agenda
the
ad
a
coordinator.
The
question
is
wish
to
understand
the
appropriate
and
required
communication.
Accessibility
for
Palm
Springs,
deaf
residents
and
visitors
have
been
included
in
this
mandate.
So,
yes,
certainly,
it
is
included
in
the
ad
a
and
to
the
extent
that
we
can
will
be
accessible
in
every
area
or
endeavor
that
we
need
to
if
we're
missing
something.
You
know
that
your
feedback
would
certainly
be
important.
G
B
H
G
H
G
B
And
I
think
part
of
the
issue
for
us.
Is
you
know
that
the
nuance
is
that
we
don't
have
any
control
over
any
of
those
organizations?
What
what
I
do
need
to
consider
first
is
anything
in
City
Hall.
How
do
you
interact
with
City
Hall
like
like,
for
example,
I've
asked
Vicki
who's,
a
parks
director
so
for
example,
and
and
Jeanne,
who
is
a
librarian
when
you
need
to
interface
with
anything
in
the
parks
or
the
library
you
know.
Are
there
issues
there?
Do
you
have
problems?
B
What
can
we
do
to
improve
that
and
so
I
get?
You
need
a
point
person
at
City
Hall
and
that
we
can
do
four
things
in
all
of
City
Hall
organizations
and
government
and
function.
So
so
that's
the
one
thing
I
must
do
that.
What
you're
saying
is
I'm
not
sure
how
to
do
the
next,
but
but
that
being
said,
Marcus
is
our
point
person,
but
we
need
to
think
about.
How
do
you
have
a
good
point
person
and
other
short
of
us
calling
in
interpreters
or
having
interpreters
on
staff?
B
So
the
one
thing
that
we
have
implemented,
we
give
a
five
percent
pay
increase
to
people
who
are
bilingual.
We've
also
included
that
now
for
who
can
do
sign
language,
but
obviously
that's
not
helping
us
immediately.
We
don't
have
anyone
on
staff.
We
can
do
sign
language
at
the
moment,
so
we
would
need
to
call
trip
orders.
B
C
What
am
I
lifeguards?
Actually
just
what
she's
going
to
school
for
and
has
been
going
to
school
for
for
the
last
three
years
is
ASL,
so
she's
we
haven't
had
any
encounters
with
you
know,
hearing-impaired,
but
she's
available,
and
and
actually
we
used
her
to
help
teach
her
a
little
tiny
fat,
kids
sign
language
and
their
graduation.
They
actually
sing
a
song.
I
did
sign
language
along
with
it,
so
good.
D
Well,
we
had
a
request
recently
to
offer
closed
captioning
at
our
films,
and
so,
whenever
possible,
we
offer
closed
captioning.
We
do
have
some
limitations,
sometimes
when
we
do
film
films
that
are
from
the
short,
not
the
surface,
but
the
American
documentary
film
festival.
Since
those
movies
are
not
commercial
movies,
we
don't
have
they're,
not
captioned.
D
So
whenever
possible,
we
do
captioning
on
our
honor
movies
and
we
put
the
symbol,
the
closed
caption
symbol
on
our
brochures,
so
that
you
can
see
that
and
then
we
also
have
15,000
DVDs
at
the
library
available
for
checkout
that
most
of
them
offer
captioning.
But
we
we
always
try
to
help
our
customers
and
we
have
interacted
several
times
with
people
who
either
are
hard
of
hearing
or
deaf
and
and
we
will
do
whatever
it
takes
to
help
our
customers.
So
we
have
turned
our.
We
have
a
reference
desk.
F
F
B
C
B
H
H
Would
you
pay
the
police
people
to
manage
the
parade,
or
would
you
ask
them
to
volunteer?
Are
they
volunteering?
How
about
the
people
who
clean
the
streets
after
the
parade?
Are
they
volunteering
to
do
that
or.
G
B
C
B
A
F
A
F
A
That
was
wrong
very.
F
E
F
We
were
mentioning
the
parade
as
an
example,
because
it's
a
public
event,
there's
a
large
public
turnout
and
deaf
people
are
part
of
that
large.
Like
turn
out
the
parades
parades
are
popular
parades
are
popular
events
and
there
are
many
deaf
people
who
like
to
participate
in
them
and
be
present
so
the
subject,
that's
is
on
the
agenda
specifically
because
it
needs
to
be
considered
within
the
funding
for
interpreters,
because
I'm
repeating
myself,
it's
a
public
event.
G
B
E
F
St.,
what
do
you
think
about
when
you
think
about
it?
The
deaf
people
who
live
here
in
the
valley
aren't
just
alright
I'm,
not
talking
about
Palm
Springs,
only
I'm
talking
about
visitors
on
the
greater
Valley.
They
are
supporting
the
economy.
Here
they
eat
out,
they
eat
at
our
restaurants.
They
go
to
our
parks,
they
sleep
in
our
hotels,
they
support
the
economy
and
so.
F
B
B
F
H
H
About
deaf
people
wanting
to
work
here
in
our
city,
and
we
have
a
population
of
young
people
here-
younger
adults
and
they're,
just
choosing
not
to
move
here,
because
there's
no
opportunity,
there's
no
work,
and
so
mostly
we
have
retirees
here,
people
my
age,
you
know,
but
they
want
to
come
here
for
their
retirement
years,
but
but
they
also
want
to
participate
in
park
activities.
That's
not
particularly
on
my
list
right
now.
H
It
used
to
be,
but
we
want
to
draw
younger
people
to
this
valley
to
live
here
and
when
we
have
younger
people,
we
can
sort
of
step
down
a
little
bit
and
let
them
take
the
reins.
They
have
the
energy
and
they
have
the
ambition.
They
have
the
ideas
they
have
the
new
ideas,
there's
they're
familiar
with
social
media.
There
are
more
progressive
demographic
and
instead
of
us,
dinosaurs,.
F
Well,
actually,
I
do
want
to
thank
the
City
Hall,
the
City
Council,
and
particularly
you
Lisa,
for
taking
the
lead
here
with
ensuring
support
for
the
deaf
community.
We
really
appreciate.
We
see
the
votes
that
have
been
passed
in
the
budget.
We've
seen
your
presentations
for
the
budget.
That
was
two
weeks
ago
that
was
fascinating.
I
was
just
Adamo
struck.
Every
other
thing
that
you
said
I
was
completely
captivated.
So
thank
you
all
the
City
Council
for
what
you
are
doing.
G
H
H
H
Those
are
outdated,
they're
kind
of
they're,
obsolete
dinosaurs
that
we
use
text
messaging
now
or
we
actually
use
a
relay
surface,
which
is
a
video
phone
live-streaming
video.
We
can
just
go
ahead
and
call
and
there's
an
interpreter
that
pops
up
as
a
third
party,
that's
a
service.
That's
for
us
and
they'll
cook
for
me-
live
streaming
video
much
like
FaceTime.
F
F
D
F
D
F
H
So
I'll
give
you
an
example:
I'll
give
you
my
telephone
number
you'll
call
that
telephone
number,
just
like
with
your
regular
phone.
Okay
and
you're
gonna
reach
a
video
relay
service
automatically.
Okay,
my
number
connects
to
that
and
then
somebody's
there
is
gonna,
be
an
interpreter
and
they're
gonna
say
hello.
This
is
Phillip
Reuben
I'm,
not
home
right
now.
Please
leave
a
message
and
you
can
go
ahead
and
just
speak
directly:
hey
Phillip
blah
blah
blah
blah
blah
and
the
interpreter
is
going
to
leave
him
a
sign.
Male
okay
and
it's
video.
H
H
H
Some
people
who
are
quite
older
and
not
savvy
with
technology
may
still
have
some
TDD,
so
I
wouldn't
throw
them
in
the
garbage
just
yet.
There
are
a
lot
of
very,
very
old
people
that
are
uncomfortable
with
technology
and
the
only
thing
that
they
really
know
they're
very
reluctant.
You
know
a
couple
of
them
are
still
you
know
they
don't
want
to
learn
how
to
use
the
videophone
or
they
don't
even
learn.
Email
yeah.
G
G
B
H
F
E
H
H
So
the
library
people
would
go
in
and
kind
of
sometimes
use
the
computer
right
libraries
or
for
that
reason
order
those
sometimes
and
as
a
matter
of
principle,
you
know
that's
providing
access
ability
if
there
would
be
a
video
camera
so
that
people
could
make
telephone
calls
in
with
me
now
in
your
situation,
I,
don't
you're,
not
the
library,
so
it
would
just
be
a
regular
phone
call
to
you.
Yes,.
G
E
G
G
H
There
are
some
deaf
people
who
can't
afford
their
own
video
phones
at
home
if
they've
got
to
pay
for
an
internet
connection
and
it
has
to
be
a
pretty
strong
internet
connection.
So
they'll
want
to
go
to
the
library
and
the
Aventa
there's
an
emergency.
They
want
to
talk
to
their
mother
or
they
need
to
make
a
phone
call
for
whatever
important
reason.
