A
C
D
A
I
want
to
preface
my
remarks
by
saying
I'm
extremely
supportive
of
these
early
starts
in
the
summer.
My
background
in
workers
compensation
teaches
me
how
incredibly
important
it
is
that
work
take
place
in
times
when
the
temperatures
are
much
lower
than
they
are
in
the
afternoon
in
the
Coachella
Valley.
We
are
the
calling
for
a
3:00
a.m.
start
on
this
project
and
I
note
that
the
neighborhood
organizations
were
contacted,
but
there's
no
indication
as
to
what
the
response
was
from
the
neighborhood
organizations
and
given
that
we
are
beginning
as
early
as
3
a.m.
F
A
G
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
I
was
just
I
also
had
similar
concerns
that
we
hadn't
notified
sufficient
neighbors
to
this
project,
and
so
I
was
wondering
why
we
only
notified
or
were
only
requiring
to
notify
residents
within
200
feet
as
opposed
to
500
feet
or,
if
there's
a
construction
reason
that
further
houses
won't
be
affected
by
the
noise.
G
G
They
don't
reach
all
residents
and
not
all
residents
are
involved
in
those,
and
so
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
notifying
as
many
people
as
we
can
and
maybe
larger
radius
next
time
than
200,
so
that
we
can
actually
do
our
due
diligence
and
and
notify
neighbors
and
be
good
neighbors
when
we
do
these
types
of
projects.
Thank
you.
That's.
H
F
F
H
If
we
actually
did
send
it
out
to
people
within
500
feet,
it's
not
in
the
staff
report,
so
that's
why
I'm
concerned
or
I
missed
it
all
I
see
is
that
in
the
future
we
will.
We
have
a
map
that
shows
us
the
500
feet
and
clearly
those
people
want
to
know
if
there's
loud
noise
at
3:00
in
the
morning
and
have
the
right
to
talk
to
us
before
we
vote
on
this
and
I
do
understand
the
reasons
to
do
it
as
well.
It's
people
working
in
this
heat
is
really
a
problem.
What.
C
We'll
do
is
we're
gonna
we're
gonna,
send
the
notice
out
to
a
large
we
normally
larger
than
we
have
to.
We
will
send
it
out
beyond
the
500
feet,
we'll
get
it
to
the
neighborhoods
and
if
we
have
or
dependent
upon
that
feedback,
we
will
report
back
to
Council,
but
we
will
make
sure
that
that's
sent
out
before
it
begins.
Yeah
and.
H
I
and
I
actually
think
the
500
feet
is
a
good
radius.
Looking
at
the
map
to
all
the
addresses,
so
if
you're
a
renter
you
find
out
as
well.
Yes,
so
if
that's
what
we're
doing
or
we
do
it
now
and
make
sure
they
have
no
enough
notice
before
it
starts
with
a
number
where
they
could
call
if
they're
objecting
to
it
and
if
work
can
be
a
form
of
that,
that
would
be
appreciated.
Yes,
thank
you.
I.
D
To
minimize
noise
levels,
the
developer
will
operate,
backup,
alarms
on
equipment
at
the
minimum
allowable
decibel
levels
and
restrict
the
use
of
radios.
Even
if
it's
I
mean
I
would
hope
that
all
development
projects
cuz,
you
know,
I-
think
we
all
get
complaints
about
all
the
development
projects
from
neighbors
about
those
annoying
backup
alarms,
which
I
know
people
it's
a
law,
but
they
have
to.
But
I
think
this
item
of
having
everybody
keep
them
with.
The
minimum
is
probably
a
good
idea.
If
we
could
do
that
easily
noted.
Okay,
thank
you.
D
A
A
But,
as
we've
said
in
the
past
on
public
notices,
we
want
notices
going
out
to
all
residents,
not
just
simply
to
property
owners
and
I
appreciate
that
the
managers
have
reached
out
to
to
the
residents,
but
I
believe
it's
important
going
forward
that
when
we
have
these
types
of
notices
that
the
notice
goes
out
to
renters
and
property
owners
equally
without
distinction
and
I
do
support
the
struck,
the
6
a.m.
start
councillor
holstege.
D
G
Had
the
exact
same
comment,
thank
you
for
building
we're
so
excited
to
have
you
I,
agree.
6
a.m.
makes
a
lot
of
sense,
of
course,
for
construction
and
for
your
workers.
My
comment
was
that
I've
worked
with
a
lot
of
mobile
home
tenants
as
well
as
managers
and
I,
have
no
specific
knowledge
about
these
ones,
but
giving
notice
to
the
managers
doesn't
mean
that
we're
giving
notice
to
them
to
the
residents
and
so
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we
notice
the
residents
as
well
because
they're
the
ones
who
live
there.
Thank
you
so.
C
Mr.
mayor
would
what
I
would
suggest
you
know?
Understanding
notice
is
an
important
issue.
I
think
what
we'll
just
do
as
a
practice
going
forward
is
on
staff
report.
There
will
be
a
section
for
public
noticing
that
way.
Everyone
will
have
a
sense
of
what
we've
done
here
and
then
we
can
proceed
with
that
level
of
notice.
I
D
D
You,
our
next
item,
is
our
public
hearing
starting
of
our
first
public
hearings.
Item
1a
is
renewal
of
the
Palm
Springs
small
hotel
tourism,
Business
Improvement
District
proposed
resolution
confirming
the
report
of
the
Palm
Springs
small
hotel
tourism
business
improvements,
district
Advisory,
Board,
levying
the
fiscal
year
2008
2018-19
assessment
and
conducted
the
protest
proceedings
to
the
district
staff
report.
Please
I'm
sorry
events
that
have
been
said
to
a
okay.
C
Thank
You
mayor
members
of
council,
as
you
know
previously,
we've
instituted
that
the
t
bid,
which
was
for
the
small
hotels
in
terms
of
the
marketing
this
was
an
initiative
that
they
had
brought
forward.
We're
required
to
do
an
annual
renewal
and
that's
what
this
public
hearing
is
and
understand.
Michael
Greene
from
the
organization's
representing
small
hotels,
will
be
doing
the
presentation
for
the
public
hearing.
Thank.
D
D
D
J
Thank
You
mayor
and
council
and
staff
David,
the
small
hotels
about
three
years
ago,
got
together
and
wanted
to
kind
of
participate
in
our
own
success,
and
so
we
worked
with
Jamie
from
the
convention
center
to
create
tourism,
Business
Improvement
District.
This
is
the
second
renewal
of
that.
You
have
a
presentation
in
your
pack
about
what
we've
done.
I
wanted
to
direct
your
attention
to
the
last
two
pages,
which
are
the
most
important
pages
since
we
launched
our
website,
we've
had
a
total
of
forty
9219
visits.
J
Total
of
a
thousand
forty-five
people
have
hit
the
book
now
button
to
go
to
one
of
our
hotels,
description
pages
to
make
a
booking
and
we've
had
five
thousand.
Seventy
four
people
hit
the
visit
Hotel
site
button
to
go
to
the
small
hotel,
each
small
hotels
website
to
book
with
them.
We
estimate
the
potential
revenue
in
that
as
four
hundred
and
fifteen
thousand
three
hundred
and
seventy
eight
dollars
above
and
beyond
what
we've
had
before
the
last
page
is
a
result
of
t
OT
increase,
and
this
goes
from
July
through
December.
J
You
see
that
we
were
able
to
achieve
an
average
of
over
eighteen
point:
three
percent
increase
in
T
ot
for
hotels,
forty
nine
rooms
and
under
we're
really
thrilled
with
that
result,
especially
because
it's
helping
us
in
our
shoulder
season.
So
we
appreciate
your
support
and
helping
us
how
to
help
ourselves,
and
we
would
ask
you
to
renew
our
T
bit.
Thank
you
and
if
anyone
has
questions,
I'm
happy
to
answer
them.
Okay,.
D
K
D
H
Thank
You
mayor
Mike,
while
you're
up
just
two
quick
things:
I'm
gonna
liaison
to
this
organization
and
I
just
want
to
say
how
amazing
the
work
they're
doing
is,
and
the
committed
board
members
who
volunteer
their
time
to
do
this
and
working
with
our
Bureau
of
tourism
and
Jamie
from
the
convention
center
really
are
doing
a
terrific
job
and
I
want
the
public
to
know
that
this
is
all
their
money
they're
assessed.
It
is
not
City
funded.
We
provide
back
office
services,
but
they
actually
reimburse
the
city
for
this.
H
So
this
is
all
their
work,
which
ends
up
bringing
in
more
t
ot
for
the
city
and
helps
really
give
our
small
hotels
some
advertising
effort
that
they
couldn't
do
on
their
own.
So
with
that,
can
you
just
share
with
the
public
and
everyone
watching
the
website?
People
can
go
to
to
see
the
great
work
that
you're
doing
sure.
E
E
D
D
E
Marion
City
Council:
this
is
a
presentation
on
debris,
a
public
hearing
to
receive
input
from
the
community.
Regarding
the
creation
of
council
districts,
the
council
adopted
a
resolution
on
April
19th,
declaring
its
intent
to
transition
from
at-large
to
district
based
elections.
We
have
a
consultant
dr.,
Justin
Leavitt
from
national
demographics.
Corporation
who'll
be
giving
you
a
presentation
on
the
process.
L
Basically,
the
entire
city
is
one
whole
unit.
Council
members
can
live
anywhere
within
the
city
and
voters
vote
on
all
five
members
of
the
council.
What
the
California
Voting,
Rights
Act
encourages
cities
to
look
into
doing
is
to
switch
to
this
form
of
election
called
by
district
elections.
It's
a
form
of
election
we're
familiar
with
because
it's
what
we
use
to
elect
members
to
Congress
the
state
assembly,
County
Board
of
Supervisors
School
District.
L
Because
what
you
do
is
you
divide
the
city
into
five?
Equally
sized
districts,
and
so
representation
has
to
come
from
all
parts
of
the
city
or
you
know
in
some
cases
the
county
or
state.
You
can't
have
all
your
representatives
leave
in
one
neighborhood
or
one
community,
but
rather
they
have
to
represent
the
diversity
throughout
the
community.
L
M
M
We
have
a
subcommittee,
as
you
know,
on
on
this
issue,
just
in
the
sake
of
making
sure
that
we
use
our
time
efficiently,
because
there's
such
an
elaborate
process
here
over
the
course
of
many
months
we're
gonna
focus
tonight
in
terms
of
discussion
on
the
districts
themselves,
how
many
of
them
there
will
be
and
what
the
nature
of
those
districts
will
be,
where
the
lines
will
be
drawn.
There's
a
lot
of
time
dedicated
to
those
topics,
but
we
really
want
to
narrowly
focus
on
the
districts
themselves
this
evening.
M
Otherwise
we'll
we'll
kind
of
get
a
drift
and
the
foot
and
the
process
developed
I
think
by
the
subcommittee,
isn't
going
to
have
the
opportunity
to
be
implemented.
That's
my
my
sole
purpose
in
interjecting
is
so
that
our
consultant
understands
and
the
public
understands
when
they
rise
to
speak
and
share
their
thoughts
and
give
assistance
to
the
council.
It's
a
narrow
focus
for
tonight's
public
hearing
the
consultants
right.
Those
are
big
issues,
but
we
have
them
planned
for
consideration
on
specific
dates
down
the
road
Thank
You
mr.
Godkin.
D
L
L
We're
going
to
use
to
help
us
define
and
go
through
the
process,
and
the
goals
are,
as
we
see
here,
to
maximize
the
goals
of
the
CVRA,
including
civil
rights,
equality
and
inclusion,
prioritize,
the
creation
of
majority
and
minority
districts
to
the
extent
possible,
to
the
extent
practical,
keep
organized
neighborhoods
intact
and
maintain
the
principle
that
the
best
interest
of
the
city
remains
the
first
responsibility
of
all
elected
officials.
You're
gonna
see
this
list
is
very
similar
to
our
list
of
criteria
that
we
have
to
consider
when
drawing
districts
in
any
jurisdiction.
L
E
The
subcommittee
has
devised
to
break
this
up
into
three
kind
of
chunks,
which
is
phase
one,
which
is
the
process
and
communities
of
interest,
so
we'll
be
reviewing
the
demographic
that
the
demographics
of
the
city
re
seeking
seeking
input
from
the
community
regarding
the
potential
communities
of
interest
that
the
City
Council
will
provide
direction
on
and
then
demonstrate
the
district
map,
drawing
tools,
and
so
our
first
meeting
is
tonight
and
then
that
will
be
followed
by
a
public
cheering
on
July
11th
at
6
p.m.
at
a
normal,
regular
city
council
meeting.
E
In
addition,
we'll
be
holding
three
community
engagement
forums.
The
first
is
on
Monday
July,
9th
at
6
o'clock,
which
is
gonna
focus
on
business
groups
as
well
as
residents
in
the
central
part
of
the
city.
But,
of
course
anybody
is
welcome
to
attend
any
of
these
meetings
and
that's
going
to
be
at
the
convention
center
on
Tuesday
July
10th
at
6:30,
we'll
be
at
James
O,
Jessie,
Desert,
Highland,
Unity
Center,
which
will
focus
on
communities
in
the
northern
part
of
the
city.
E
In
addition,
we'll
be
holding
a
meeting
for
one
PS
at
the
city
yard,
on
July
12th
at
8
a.m.
and
then
our
third
regular
community
engagement
meetings
going
to
be
on
Thursday
July
12th
at
6
o'clock
at
the
Music
community
center
focusing
on
communities
in
the
southern
part
of
the
city,
beginning
in
July,
mid
July
through
September,
we'll
be
inviting
the
community
to
utilize
the
public
participation
kits
as
well
as
a
online
interactive
mapping
system
that
will
assist
them
in
preparing
their
own
maps
for
cities.
L
E
So
then,
in
phase
2
will
be
discussing
the
form
of
government
and
election
year,
so
on
September
26
at
a
regular
City,
Council
or
I'm.
Sorry,
at
a
special
City
Council
meeting,
which
will
be
focused
on
CBA
CVRA,
only
will
be
a.
We
have
a
working
group,
a
community
working
group
that
is
formulating
recommendations
related
to
these
topics.
At
that
time
there
will
be
a
study
session
in
which
that
group
presents
its
recommendations
to
the
City
Council.
Then,
at
a
subsequent
special
meeting
on
October
4th
at
6
p.m.
E
December
19th.
The
City
Council
will
adopt
the
ordinance.
There's
always
the
possibility
that
more
additional
community
engagement
forms
might
be
scheduled
in
between
as
those
maps
are
being
presented.
And
this
this
schedule
does
reflect
some
of
the
proposals
that
the
subcommittee
has
made.
As
far
as
scheduling
special
meetings
and
I'm
sure
you'll
discuss
that
later
on
in
this
presentation,
okay,.
L
Thank
you,
and
so,
and
so
to
kind
of
jumpstart
the
process.
What
do
we
have
to
think
about
when
drawing
districts
or
when
drawing
drawing
electoral
boundaries?
Well,
fortunately,
we're
guided
by
some
Supreme
Court
decisions
and
by
state
law
and
so
on
the
left-hand
column
under
federal
laws.
These
are
things
that
the
courts
tell
us.
L
We
must
do
the
top
one
is
equal
population
districts
have
to
have
more
or
less
the
same
number
of
total
people
counted
on
April,
1st
2010,
according
2010
census,
in
each
of
the
each
of
the
four
or
five
districts,
and
this
is
to
make
sure
that
it
includes
everybody,
not
just
voters,
not
just
people
who
are
eligible
to
vote,
but
everybody
is
included.
Children
non-citizens
counted
in
the
census.
You
know
everyone
counted
as
part
of
that
sense.
Population
count
is
included
and
the
difference
is
10%
between
the
largest
and
smallest,
that's
the
maximum.
L
We
can
have
so
that's
the
boundaries
that
the
courts
give
us
a
10%
difference
between
the
largest
population
and
smallest
population.
In
addition,
we
have
to
consider
the
federal
Voting
Rights
Act.
This
gets
right
into
underrepresented
groups,
groups
that
have
historically
faced
discrimination
or
barriers
or
difficulties
in
registering
to
vote.
While
the
courts
have
said
that
race
cannot
be
the
only
factor
that
justifies
the
creation
of
a
district.
L
In
addition,
on
the
right
hand,
column,
we
see
the
traditional
criteria.
These
are
things
that
we
can
do.
We
have
to
balance
them
out,
because
sometimes
your
natural
geography
may
make
it
difficult
to
create
the
most
compact
district
possible.
It
may
prevent
us
from
getting
every
single
community
together,
because
some
communities
are
gonna
be
very
large.
Others,
communities
are
going
to
be
very
small,
some
communities
are
going
to
follow,
census
blocks
very
well.
Other
communities
are
not
going
to
follow
the
census
block
boundaries
and
we
do
have
to
use
since
this
geography
throughout
the
process.
L
That's
what
the
that's,
what
the
most
accurate
counts.
According
to
the
courts,
come
from,
and
so
I'll
talk
about
that
as
I
show
you
some
of
the
different
maps
here
in
a
second
before
we
do
that.
I
just
want
to
take
a
second
to
kind
of
get
us
thinking
about
this
communities
of
interest
measure,
because
this
is
the
most
important
one
and
it's
also
the
least
well
defined.
L
The
courts
have
said
that
communities
of
interest
are
anything
that
brings
a
neighborhood
together,
brings
a
community
of
people
together
and
in
every
city,
or
every
place
that
I've
gone.
There
have
been
different
issues.
Some
common
ones
are
parks,
as
you
are
talking
about
with
traffic
and
noise
concerns.
Those
are
often
issues
that
bring
community
together
here.
L
Around
particular
development
projects,
the
schools,
their
children,
attend
the
you
know
way
that
they
back
up
against
the
the
mountains
or
they
have
a
share
canyon
in
common
or
and
I'm
just
throwing
out
ideas
here,
because
this
is
why
we're
doing
this
public
hearing
process.
We
need
you,
as
members
of
the
community,
to
tell
us
what
your
communities
of
interest
are.
You
know
we'll
show
you
some
of
the
basic
demographics,
but
that's
no
substitute
from
actually
hearing
it
from
the
people
who
live
in
a
place,
but
just
to
give
I
could.
E
Interject
real
fast,
so
I
do
want
to
let
the
council
and
the
community
know
that
we
do
have
on
our
website
PS
districts
comm,
both
in
english
and
spanish
memo,
which
tries
to
define
what
communities
of
interest
are,
and
it
gives
some
of
the
examples
and
kind
of
breaks
that
down
into
easy
to
digest
information.
So
we
do
have
them
in
the
chambers
as
well
as
well
as
online
for
the
community.
L
L
L
L
G
L
I
L
Though
that
total
population
of
44,000
552
that's
the
number,
we
have
to
divide
by
4,
divided
by
5
to
get
the
number
of
people
that
will
be
in
each
area,
so
around
11,000
138
for
each
of
four
districts
or
8910
for
each
of
five
and
I
know
those
are
gonna,
be
very
specific.
Those
are
very
specific
numbers
that
you
won't
remember.
We
have
them
written
down
in
the
PowerPoint
that
we
have
here
tonight
and
we
have
on
the
website,
and
so
you
can
refer
to
that.
L
We
can
refer
to
that
and
that
number
is
going
to
appear
on
all
the
materials
that
we
provide
throughout
the
process
and,
like
I
said,
like
you
can
see
here.
In
addition
to
that
total
population
count,
we
also
have
a
lot
of
other
information
in
here,
for
example,
and
this
these
are
summaries
for
the
entire
city.
L
L
Sure,
okay,
so
go
back
to
the
last
page,
so
VAP
is
voting
age
population,
so
the
CV
ap
that
you'll
see
on
this
map,
Latino
Steve
app
that
stands
for
citizen
voting
age
population.
This
is
what
the
courts
call
eligible
voters,
it's
a
sense
discount
from
the
Sen
2010
census,
it's
self-reported!
So
it's
that
old,
long
form
of
the
census
that
asks
you
what
your
occupation
is
and
how
many
toilets
you
have
in
your
house
and
how
many
you
know
how?
When
was
your
house
built?
L
L
The
airport
we
we
see
that
that's
of
majority
sixty
seventy
five
percent
Latino,
and
so
we
see
that
there
are
two
distinct
neighborhoods
that
come
up
when
we
look
at
this
right
around
the
airport
and
right
in
the
north
desert,
Highland
Gateway
neighborhood.
L
In
addition,
we
are
looking
at
the
one
PS
neighborhood
associations
now,
interestingly,
one
of
the
issues
that
we're
going
to
be
talking
about
a
lot
as
we
get
into
the
details
later
on.
They
don't
follow
census,
block
boundaries
very
well,
some
of
them,
because
since
this
blocks
tend
to
follow
streets,
neighborhoods
tend
to
follow
property
lines.
So
people
on
one
side
of
the
street
versus
people
on
the
other
side
of
the
street,
so
we're
gonna,
be
working
on
this.
L
We're
gonna
be
working
on
digitizing
this
and
trying
to
get
some
good
estimates
for
you
on
what
how
many
people
live
in
each
of
these
neighborhoods
according
to
those
census
counts.
But,
for
example,
the
two
Arabi
communities
share,
a
single
census
block.
Almost
the
entire
entirety
of
both
communities
are
in
one
single
census
block,
and
so
we'll
be
talking
about
this.
L
That
comes
up
a
few
times
in
the
city
where
the
Four
Seasons
community
is
completely
surrounded
by
a
census
block
that's
in
another,
that's
in
that's
in
another
neighborhood,
and
so
we'll
be
looking
at
this
and
giving
you
know
creating
some
maps
that
we'll
put
on
the
website
we'll
be
talking
about
this
at
some
of
the
neighborhood
forums
and
community
engagement
forums
as
we
go
on
now.
In
addition
to
that,
we're
also
going
to
provide
a
series
of
tools
and
the
way
I
like
to
think
about
this.
L
Is
we
want
to
hear
from
you
no
matter
how
you
want
to
participate,
so
we
have
everything
from
blank
maps
of
the
city
with
some
major
roads
drawn
in
that
you
can
just
kind
of
indicate
on
these
maps
what
your
neighborhood
is
or
what
area
you
think
should
stay
together.
You
don't
even
have
to
draw
a
whole
city
map.
You
can
just
do
this
for
your
area.
We
have
this.
We're
gonna
have
these
available
in
English
and
Spanish.
L
What
information
can
we
provide
to
you
to
help
you
succeed
in
drawing
in
getting
a
set
of
districts
that
works
for
the
city?
What
are
your
neighborhoods
or
communities
of
interest
or
what
principals,
in
addition
to
the
ones
adopted
by
the
city,
should
we
look
at
as
we
start
drawing
district
maps
later
on
in
August
and
September?
L
What
other
kinds
of
communities
of
interest
exist
and
I
say?
You'll
also
feel
like
you.
If
you
don't
feel
like
you
know
the
whole
city
just
talk
about
your
neighborhood,
just
talk
about
the
area,
the
cities
that
you
know
the
best
and
please
reach
out
to
us.
We
have
contact
information
for
both
the
city
as
well
as
for
us,
a
Palm
Springs
at
NDC
research.
Calm,
you
don't.
Will
we
get
those
emails?
We
read
them,
we
get
back
to
you,
go
through
the
city
clerk
as
well.
L
G
Could
just
make
a
comment,
thank
you
for
the
public,
that's
here,
and
the
people
listening
you're
facing
us
and
asking
us
what
our
neighborhood
community
of
interests-
and
it
looks
like
you're
asking
us
the
council,
but
in
fact
we
are
asking
the
public
and
we
really
are
going
above
and
beyond
our
legal
duty
to
involve
the
public
in
this
work.
And
so
please
know
that
those
questions
are
directed
to
you
and
we
do
want
your
feedback
and
your
comments
now
and
in
all
the
other
meetings
that
that
we
just
explained.
So.
Thank
you.
G
D
D
And
we'll
have
public
of
the
City
Council
comments
after
the
public
session.
If
there's
any
questions
of
staff
right
now
the
questions
seeing
none,
we
will
open
the
public
hearing
and
we
have
currently
four
people
who
wish
to
speak.
First
is
Kurt
watts,
then
Robert,
Findlay
and
then
Amato
Salinas,
the
second
and
then
David
Friedman.
If
anyone
else
wishes
to
speak
on
this
item,
please
put
a
card
into
the
city
clerk
on.
N
Ok
good
evening,
as
you
indicated,
my
name
is
Kurt
watts
I'm
a
16
year
resident
of
Palm
Springs
and
in
addition
to
serving
for
over
three
years
in
the
initial
formation
and
as
a
board
member
for
the
sunrise
park.
Neighborhood
organization
I
worked
over
14
years
in
the
field
of
economic
development,
for
the
cities
of
Palm
Springs,
Rancho,
Mirage
and
Cathedral.
N
I'd
like
to
suggest
that
the
city
investigate
changing
to
a
rank-choice
voting
procedure
for
each
of
these
districts
once
they
are
adopted,
and
then
secondly,
it's
my
feeling,
based
on
my
prior
experience,
that
there
should
be
five
districts
with
the
mayor's
seat
to
be
determined
annually
on
a
rotating
basis
from
the
five
elected
members.
So
I
know
from
my
personal
point
of
view,
as
I
participate
in
this
process,
I'm
going
to
be
looking
at
five
district
seats
instead
of
four
as
I
start
to
look
at
communities
of
interest
in
terms
of
the
rank
choice
voting.
N
This
has
been
in
the
press
recently,
as
you
may
know,
with
the
San
Francisco
mayor
election,
but
it
is
something
that
is
in
many
cities
across
the
way
and
I
think
it's
important
to
think
about
this,
because
I
think
we
do
anticipate
a
large
number
of
from
each
of
these
districts
once
they're
formed
and
rank-choice
voting
has
a
lot
to
offer
in
terms
of
making
sure
that
those
eventual
elected,
City
Council
members
represent
there
a
large
percentage
of
their
residents.
Thank.
O
K
You
mr.
mayor
council
staff,
I
sat
down
this
afternoon
in
front
of
my
computer
and
started
to
write
up
what
I
was
going
to
have
to
say
this
evening
and
came
to
the
conclusion
that
it
was
gonna
take
a
whole
more
than
two
minutes
so
I'm
converting
it
all
into
a
letter.
I
will
send
it
to
you
and
to
appropriate
staff.
Members
and
you'll
get
all
of
my
thoughts.
You
don't
have
them
in
writing,
so
you
can
refer
back
to
them
anytime.
You
wish
that's
really
all
I
have
to
say
tonight.
Thank
you.
Thank.
K
K
K
K
D
K
Evening,
mayor
mayor,
Pro,
Taman,
City,
Council
members
wasn't
planning
on
speaking
this
evening,
but
I'm
serving
as
chair
of
the
Governance
Committee
of
one
PS,
but
because
I'm
only
addressing
what
was
just
provided
before
the
meeting
I
am
speaking
on
my
personal
capacity,
because
I
just
want
to
address
two
minor
points
of
not
minor
points
actually,
but
two
points
comments
on
the
maps.
First,
the
neighborhood
organization
map
is
not
the
current
one.
K
It's
probably
at
least
a
year
to
here
and
a
half
old
to
neighborhood
organizations
and
that
were
formed
within
the
last
12
to
18
months
are
not
on
the
map
and
one
has
since
renamed.
So
I
will
work
with
MS
Goolsbee
tomorrow
to
make
sure
that
the
correct
map
is
provided
for
NDC
and
second
I
think
was
addressed
in
the
presentation.
I
did
take
a
very
quick
look
at
the
population
units
on
the
paper
map.
K
Obviously,
it's
hard
to
read
the
whole
city
in
one
eight-and-a-half
by
11,
but
at
least
two
neighborhood
organizations
that
I've
already
identified
are
split
in
the
population
units
so
to
the
extent
possible
for
the
presentation
to
1ts
on
July
12.
It
would
be
helpful
if
the
map
that
was
then
presented
did
reflect
the
neighborhood
organization
map.
So
two
quick
comments
and
thank
you
for
the
process.
J
D
Q
You
I
wanted
to
thank
you
all
for
extending
this
this
session
and
having
so
many
opportunities
to
speak
about
this,
and
one
of
the
things
that
is
my
biggest
concern
is
the
census,
because
the
census
is
from
2010
and
if
you
look
up
any
school
yearbook,
you
will
see
that
our
Palm
Springs
is
nothing
like.
It
says
in
the
to
2010
census.
Q
So
I
also
am
concerned,
and
you
know
as
I
look
around
the
room:
there's
not
a
lot
of
people
here
and
not
a
lot
of
people
talking
about
the
communities
and
so
I'm
interested
in
what
it's
going
to
be
done.
If
the
next
meeting
is
a
low
turnout
and
the
next
meeting
after
that,
and
if
we're
getting
low
diversity,
you
know
what
is
it
that
can
be
done
to
make
sure
that
we
get
the
community
here
and
participating,
and
one
idea
that
I
have
is
to
extend
this
to
the
schools
at
every
level.
Q
Q
She
also
has
that
same
memory,
so
I'm
really
looking
forward
to
having
more
diversity
on
the
board
and
in
every
way
and
to
represent
communities
that
I
grew
up
in
that
I
know
are
usually
not
here
at
these
meetings
and
not
necessarily
because
they
don't
want
to
be
because
they
don't
always
have
the
information.
So
thank
you
very
much
and
I
hope
to
be
in
Baltimore.
Thank.
D
H
So
that
will
be
part
of
that
phase
two
process
and
we're
going
to
want
public
comment
on
that
when
we
get
there,
which
will
be
right
after
the
summer.
But
people
can
definitely
start
thinking
about
that.
The
other
thing
and
I
love
the
idea
of
reach
out
to
the
schools
which
we
will
do,
but
we
actually
have
really.
We've
looked
at
what
other
cities
have
done
and
typically
they're
telling
us
they
get.
H
You
know
15
people
showing
up
at
these
meetings
and
we
really
want
to
see
our
community
is
a
very
engaged
community
and
we
want
the
community
be
engaged,
which
is
why
you
know
we
only
had
to
do
four
public
hearings
on
this
I
think
we
have
14
meetings,
but
we
have
a
full
plan
on
trying
to
engage
the
public.
A
mailing
will
go
out
once
we
adopt
the
schedule
tonight
to
every
single
address,
every
resident,
every
business,
every
property
owner
with
the
schedule
of
hearings
in
English
and
Spanish.
H
We
have
bus,
shelters,
going
up,
I'm,
sorry
for
the
candidates
who
still
have
some
bus
shelters.
They
may
take
you
over
because
they
leave
them
off
forever,
but
we
have
bus
shelters
going
up
to
direct
people
to
the
website,
we're
doing
deliberately
doing
meetings
in
the
neighborhoods
we're
doing
one
at
James,
O
Jesse
we're
doing
one
at
the
DeMuth
community
center
and
I
love
the
idea.
H
You
know
people
weigh
in
and
give
us
their
ideas
and
send
in
their
maps.
Every
map
that
meets
a
legal
criteria
will
be
considered
and
we
moved
all
those
meetings
to
a
non
council
agenda
one.
So
the
city
can
do
its
business,
but
also
you
know
if
you
have
to
get
up
at
6:00
in
the
morning,
because
you
work
in
landscaping
or
construction
or
schoolteacher
has
to
be
there
at
7:00
thirty.
H
You
can't
wait
till
8:30
at
night
for
us
or
an
often
it's
later
by
the
time
we
get
to
public
hearings
for
us
to
discuss
this,
so
we
want
to
make
sure
we're
doing
it
an
hour
and
we'll
have
Spanish
language
translators
available
to
really
make
sure
we're
providing
every
opportunity
to
do
that,
and
hopefully,
through
1ps,
we'll
get
folks
to
reach
out
to
their
neighborhood
groups
as
well.
So
I
just
wanted
to
sort
of
share
that
and
we're
looking
forward
to
the
process.
Thank
you.
We.
I
Wow,
you
said
just
about
everything
there
you
know
I
I
was
fascinated
by
Curt
watt
and
concurred.
If
you
don't
mind
coming
back
up
for
a
minute,
I'm
I
was
fascinated
by
your
in
by
your
experience
and
this
and
your
interest
in
this,
and,
if
you
don't
mind
taking
another
minute
here,
I
wanted
you
to
finish
what
you
were
saying
and
my
question
to
you
also
is:
if
there
are
specific
areas
in
this
or
specific
things
that
you
witness,
that
you
think
would
help
us
in
this
process.
I'd
love
to
hear
that
from
you.
N
Well,
and
as
the
other
gentleman
comment,
I
will
follow
up
with
a
letter
and
a
little
more
depth,
because
it
would
take
quite
a
bit
of
time
to
digest
everything
that
I
guess
I
could
give
input.
I
guess
I
would
say
that
you
know,
aside
from
the
two
specific
suggestions,
I
have
what
I
observed,
especially
in
Cathedral
City.
N
They
had
the
same
issue
in
terms
of
how
to
get
more
people
out
and
especially
from
the
minority
community
and
I,
think
they
did
a
very
good
job,
but
I
think
you
will
surpass
them
in
what
was
done.
But
having
said
that,
the
types
of
issues
that
came
up
along
the
lines
of
communities
of
interests
and
I
think
there
was
one
reference
made
in
the
materials
was
some
neighborhoods
are
very
large
and
because
of
the
census,
tract
data
and
commonality.
N
There
was
a
debate
between
is
a
large
neighborhood,
better
served
by
having
part
of
their
neighborhood
in
one
district
and
part
in
another,
so
that
they
basically
have
the
ear.
If
you
will
of
two
council
members
on
a
regular
basis,
whereas
there's
the
natural
inclination
that
everybody
wants
their
whole
neighborhood
kept
intact,
and
so
that
was
one
item
that
was
discussed
at
great
length.
Another
one
was
in
terms
of
Cathedral
City,
trying
to
redevelop
its
downtown
area
and
we
obviously
have
much
further
along
than
they
in
that
respect.
N
But
we
have
some
very
distinct
commercial
districts
and
there
was
a
lot
of
discussion
about
in
order
to
not
have
just
one
council
member
representing
the
downtown.
They
created
some
districts
that
basically
sliced
up
or
touched
the
borders
of
the
downtown
areas,
and
you
might
want
to
think-
or
the
community
may
want
to
think
about
that
in
terms
of
how
do
we
make
sure
that
the
business
interests
in
that
economic
development
tool
is
one
of
those
community
of
interest
topics?
Okay,
those
are
the
ones
that
kind
of
jump
out
at
me.
N
I
did
find
it
interesting
there
as
well
that
because
they,
like
you,
had
a
set
of
council
members
where
there
may
already
be
in
some
of
the
early
maps,
one
two
or
in
their
case
they
actually
had
three
council
members
in
one
of
the
districts
that
was
being
formed
and
the
natural
thing
was
well.
Does
that
mean
those
council
members
are
going
to
compete
each
against
each
other
in
a
future
election
or
if
one
or
two
of
them
gonna
move?
N
N
If
all
of
a
sudden,
you
just
put
all
the
existing
councilmembers
in
one
district
because
that's
where
they
happen
to
live
in
close
proximity,
it's
okay
to
use
that
as
a
factor
if
the
alternative
would
mean
you're
going
to
lose
four
of
your
five
council
members
in
the
next
two
years,
simply
by
virtue
and
then
all
of
that
brain
trust.
So
those
are
some
random
thoughts
on
the
topic.
Thank.
I
You
so
much
I
appreciate
that
that's
helpful,
you
know,
I
know
we're
gonna,
have
many
many
hearings
on
this
and
right
now
I'm
or
want
to
just
be
a
sponge.
This
is
a
new
process
for
me
and
so
I'm
most
interested
in
what
the
public
has
to
say,
but
also
what
we're
gonna
learn
as
we
go
along.
I
One
major
concern
I
had
with
this.
This
presentation
we
got
is
a
lot
of
the
information.
Looked
very
dated
to
me
and
I
very
much
agree
with
the
last
speaker
who,
who
you
know,
told
us
that
we're
a
very,
very
different
city
than
our
2010
contends,
because
a
consensus
and
I
very
much
agree
with
that.
I
know
how
radically
Palm
Springs
has
changed
in
in
the
last.
You
know.
Eight
ten
years
we
even
have
a
millennial
on
the
City
Council
ten
years
ago.
I
We
might
not
have
even
had
a
millennial
in
this
city,
so
we
know
we've
changed
pretty
radically
so
anyway,
that's
my
biggest
concern
I'd
like
us
to
focus
very
early
and
very
quickly
on
getting
updated
information.
Obviously
we
can't
do
a
census
but
which
you
know,
I
love,
staffs
ideas.
Doctor
ready
on
how
we
can
get
better
and
more
updated
information
on
our
neighborhoods
in
our
populations,
just
short
of
doing
a
census
and
I
hope
you
have
some
ideas
for
that.
I
A
Gonna
pick
up
on
that
theme,
because
I
think
all
of
us
know
that
the
2010
census
data
is
is
dated.
It
would
certainly
be
much
better
if
we
were
dealing
in
2011
with
brand-new
census
data
as
we
go
through
this
process.
My
understanding
of
the
law
is
that
we
have
extremely
limited
to
zero
flexibility
when
it
comes
to
in
courting
our
decisions
in
2018,
based
on
the
2010
census
data.
We
have
as
well
minimal
flexibility
in
terms
of
the
variance
that
we
can
have
in
population
from
one
district
to
another.
A
Some
of
us
may
know
where
there
has
been
some
growth
and
can
try
to
factor
that
into
a
degree,
but
we're
going
to
be
very
limited
in
our
ability
to
do
that.
I
want
to
move
from
that,
though,
to
thinking
staff,
and
particularly
our
city
clerk
in
our
city,
attorney
for
the
work
that
they
have
done
on
this
and
will
be
doing
I,
don't
think
either.
A
One
of
them
was
short
of
responsibilities
before
this
issue
got
dropped
in
their
lap
and
they
have
really
responded
for
us
and
as
well
as
the
task
force,
that's
been
put
together
to
provide
recommendations
to
us.
We've
asked
that
task
force
to
look
at
every
single
issue
and
rank-choice
voting
was
one
of
the
issues
that
is
out
there
and
that's
going
to
take.
A
It
makes
it
more
likely
that
the
ultimate
victor
is
an
individual
who
enjoys
majority
support
within
a
district,
and
if
we
have
a
crowded
field
and
a
small
turnout,
you
could
unfortunately
find
yourself
in
a
situation
where
someone's
elected
to
the
City
Council,
with
only
a
few
hundred
votes
and
that's
not
been
possible
in
the
past,
it
will
be
possible
in
the
future
and
rank
choice
is
one
of
the
many
alternatives
that
we
have
to
try
to
move
beyond
that.
I
really
want
to
thank
miss
garner
for
the
recommendation
to
go
to
the
schools.
A
We
know
when
we
go
to
our
schools.
We
see
the
population
that
is
very
different
than
we
see
anywhere
else
in
our
city,
and
it
is
our
desire
to
reach
out
as
broadly
as
we
possibly
can
throughout.
This
community
engage
the
community
so
that
ultimately
we're
going
to
get
districts
in
decisions
that
not
everyone
will
agree
with.
K
G
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
I
just
have
a
few
comments
and
questions
first,
I'm
incredibly
glad
and
grateful
that
we're
going
through
this
process
and
we're
taking
as
much
time
as
we
are
I
think
this
is
such
an
important
issue
for
the
future
of
our
city,
which
is
growing
and
changing,
and
so
I'm
just
grateful
for
everyone
to
be
involved.
In
that
just
some
comments.
G
One
I
want
to
make
sure,
though
we
have
a
very
clear
process
and
procedure
that
we're
doing
as
a
City
Council
I
would
suggest
that
we
don't
limit
public
comment
which
I
know
we're
not,
but
just
making
it
clear
that
people
can
provide
comment
on
general
issues
just
on
this
process,
because
maybe
we
might
be
the
only
ones
who
are
gonna
go
to
all
14
meetings
that
we
have
so
far.
Someone
might
only
be
able
to
attend
one.
G
Maybe
more
and
more
people
will
be
engaged
in
this
process
when
it
gets
closer
to
the
end,
I'm
wondering
for
a
charge
for
one
PS,
if
you're
our
liaison
councilmember
Middleton,
if
you
could
ask
them
to
do
outreach
to
neighbors
that
don't
generally
attend
one
PS,
the
diverse
one.
Ps
is
excellent.
The
diversity
isn't
always
as
diverse
as
we
like,
and
so
if
they
could
do
that,
work.
I
think
that
would
be
really
important
if
they
can
do
their
own
outreach.
We
have
higher.
G
Perhaps
they
could
link
up
with
one
PS
and
do
some
of
that
work,
because
if
we're
going
to
be
very
reliant
on
the
existing
neighborhood
organizations,
we
have
to
understand
that
that
those
organizations
were
sometimes
formed
when
minority
voters
weren't
engaged
in
the
process,
and
we
want
to
make
sure
that
they're
engaged
in
the
process,
especially
for
a
relying
heavily
on
those
neighborhood
organizations
as
they
are
now
I'm
wondering
I,
saw
aunt
our
city
clerk
nodding
along
that
we
had
to
rely
on
the
2010
census
data.
Can
you
explain
that
a
bit
for
me
so.
E
Much
of
the
federal
requirements
and
state
requirements,
the
mandatory
requirements
that
are
to
be
considered
when
drawing
these
districts
are
reliant
on
the
census,
data
that
was
collected
from
2010
and
then
the
updates
from
the
American
community
surveys.
It
may
not
give
you
a
lot
of
solace
all
this,
but
in
2021,
when
the
new
census
data
is
released,
the
city
is
going
to
have
to
do
this
process
again
and
update
its
boundaries
based
on
the
new
census
data.
So
when
you
do
get
the
updated
information,
you'll
be
able
to
have
another
bite
at
this
Apple.
E
L
And
I,
just
I
just
wanted
to
add
one
quick
thing
is
that
on
that
the
eligible
voter
number
there's
even
some
voting
age
and
the
ACS
Community
Survey
data
that
came
out
earlier
this
year
and
covers
a
period
from
that
ends
in
20
2016.
So
it
is
a
little
more
recent,
but
this
is
what
it
takes
the
census
to
get
the
data
to
us.
We
have
the
most
recent
data
available.
L
We
can
adjust
districts
and
we
especially
for
over
and
under
maybe
if
we
know,
there's
growth
areas.
If
we
know
that
their
demographic
changes
since
2010,
then
we
can
certainly
take
that
into
account
as
part
of
justifying
a
district.
But
you
know
that
that's
good
that
that
definite
and
we
should
and
I
mean
that's
definitely
a
part
of
the
process.
L
The
legal
or
the
legal
requirement,
though,
is
to
rely
on
the
census
data,
so
we're
trapped
in
this.
You
know
these.
We
want
to
take
it
we're
going
to.
We
actually
been
looking
at
where
we've
seen
growth
areas,
especially
higher
rates
of
growth.
You
know
we've
been
looking
at.
You
know.
The
city
was
twelve
percent
Latino
by
eligible
voter
in
2010.
Now
it's
at
sixteen
percent,
and
we
have
a
good
idea
of
where
that
change
has
been
coming
from.
L
L
L
G
If
one
from
our
council
is
sitting
in
on
those
and
watching
those
that
might
be
really,
we
have
the
same
consultant
so
I
guess
you
can
provide
that.
But
that
might
be
interesting.
I'd
be
happy
to
volunteer
to
do
that
or
if
someone
else
wants
to
it
seems
important
to
learn
from
their
lessons
and
and
bring
that
forward
to
this
body.
H
L
L
Right-
and
we
also
have
a
lot
of
that
data
as
one-page
PDFs
as
well.
So
if
you
don't
want
to
flip
through
the
presentation,
we'll
have
the
demographics
we'll
have
the
maps
available
is
one-page,
PDFs
and
you
know
we'll
provide
you
know.
We
have
that
part
of
it.
We
also
will
have
a
number
of
other
resources,
including
online
maps,
where
you
can
search
for
addresses
and
stuff
as
we
go
through
the
process.
So.
G
L
D
This
we
don't
vote
on
this,
though
do
it.
So
we
just
move
on:
okay,
the
next
public
hearing
item
to
see
approved,
purchase
and
sale
agreement
and
escrow
instructions
with
secret
Herald,
Keesler
trusts
and
James
Edward
Murphy
trusts
for
a
successor
agency
on
property,
located
at
three
four
two:
three:
four:
four
North
Palm
Canyon
in
the
amount
of
five
hundred
thousand
percent
to
section
three,
four
one:
nine
1.5
of
the
Health
and
Safety
Code
and
staff
report.
Please
Thank.
P
P
The
keys,
their
trust
in
the
amount
of
$500,000,
which
is
an
all-cash
offer
on
June
6th
City
Council,
also
directed
staff
to
proceed
with
with
this
offer
and
negotiating
it,
and
this
was
during
a
closed
session
meeting.
So
at
this
time,
staff
is
recommending.
The
council
approve
the
offer
and
authorize
a
city
manager
to
execute
all
necessary
documents
and
forward
this
item
to
the
oversight
board.
Thank.
D
C
E
K
K
He
has
a
buyer,
but
the
buyer
cannot
perform
because
Alcoholic
Beverage
doesn't
approve
a
license
without
a
lease
on
a
property.
He
has
no
lease
I
told
him
and
he
must
buy
the
property
he's
here.
We
were
gonna
make
an
offer
of
525,
which
I
told
him.
This
was
a
city
wants
pay
the
price
to
the
city.
Let's
get
it
done
because
you
need
to
own
the
property.
So
I'm
asking
you
for
courtesy
to
read
my
letter
briefly.
It
says,
states
the
facts.
K
When
Diane
said
December
14th
that
the
property
was
coming
back
on
the
market,
I
said,
then
anybody
can
buy
it.
She
said
yes,
I
and
my
family
made
an
offer:
a
400,000
cash
30-day
escrow,
exactly
what
the
escrow
was
and
she
said
she
would
submit
it.
I,
don't
think
you
ever
saw
it.
I
called
her
a
few
days
later
said
well,
the
city
is
gonna,
reappraise
the
property
and
take
a
look
at
it
and
I'll
get
back
to
you.
Well,
there
was
no
getting
back
and
no
getting
back
and
then
Thank.
D
Is
a
time
for
public
comment,
so
it's
not
a
dialogue
between
the
council
and
yourself,
sir
yeah.
Any
of
the
comments
you
wish
to
make
yeah
I
hand
out
all
the
paper
what
they
need
to
say.
Okay,
thank
you
for
have
any
questions
for
you
later.
One
of
the
council.
Members
may
call
you
up.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
D
C
P
In
in
the
fall
again,
as
dr.
Reddy
has
indicated,
this
is
a
former
redevelopment
property
which
we've
been
directed
to
sell
at
the
time
the
plan
to
sell
this
property
was
to
be
part
of
a
hotel
that
didn't
happen,
and
so
there
was
no
that
escrow,
which
was
open.
We
were
not
allowed
to
market
or
sell
the
property
while
it
was
under
escrow.
We
made
several
efforts
during
that
time
to
contact
that
potential
buyer
and
when
we
learned
from
the
Planning
Department
that
that
hotel
project
had
been
withdrawn,
we
sent
several
letters
to
that.
P
I
Okay,
ask
my
question:
yep!
Thank
you,
so
dr.
Reddy,
what
I
wanted
to
ask
you
was
this
is
an
odd
situation.
I,
don't
think
in
any
of
my
time
and
either
counsel
I've
served
on
we've
had
someone
come
and
bid
on
a
property
here
in
the
council
chambers.
So
this
looks
a
little
sticky
to
me
and
you
know
in
the
public
process
of
us
garnering
the
highest
dollars
for
the
property.
C
I
would
like
mark
to
come
on
down
and
to
address
that
the
process
as
he
performed
it,
but
but
I
would
note
just
just
a
couple
general
things.
Obviously,
this
this
property
belongs
to
the
state
of
California.
It's
part
of
the
Redevelopment
Agency.
They
have
tasked
the
city
to
to
sell
these
properties
and
at
the
end
of
this
month,
actually
the
successor
agency
then
moves
to
the
county.
That
being
said,
I
understand
and
in
mark
and
clarify.
This
is
that
this
is
a
cash
offer,
an
offer,
that's
ready
to
be
sold
two
on
the
table.
C
K
C
K
Padilla
and
so
I
actually
spoke
with
mr.
Padilla
on
the
phone,
and
he
said
he
wanted
to
make
an
offer.
I
said
great,
he
said
if
I
want
to
make
it
through
my
broker
Steve
McBride
at
he
was
properties,
and
so
he
did
submit
an
offer
and
then
we
got
another
offer
from
mr.
Keisler
and
then
we
got
another
offer
from
mr.
Padilla
through
Steve
ride,
and
then
yesterday
I
got
a
call
from
del
Gannon
saying
that
he
represented
mr.
Padilla
but
mr.
K
bean,
but
he
had
only
told
me
that
Steve
McBride
represented
him
and
all
the
contracts
I
had
were
through
Steve
McBride,
so
I
didn't
feel
comfortable
who's
who's.
His
broker
is
a
Steve
McBride
or
is
it
del
Canyon
and
I
didn't
have
any
authorization
that
del
Manion
was
his
broker?
So
you
know
if
we
want
to
get
into
it,
I
don't
know,
I,
don't
think
you
know
the
offer
I
have
is
all
cash
and
it's
a
45-day,
escrow
and
and
the
other
one.
K
If
it's
a
financed
of
a
deal,
there's
it's
not
there's
no
pre-approval
letter
for
the
loan
and
I
think
it's
contingent
upon
getting
a
loan.
If
we
want
to
get
into
a
bidding
contest
and
I
think
it's
in
another
matter:
all-together
the
people
can
come
up
and
start
making
bids
at
the
City
Council
meeting
and.
C
If
I
could
I
would
know,
counsel,
this
is
one
of
those
sort
of
state
mandated
processes
where
it's
their
land.
They
want
us
to
sell
it.
The
bottom
line
is
we
just
let
them
sell
it
and
then
next
month
it's
gonna
be
responsibility
of
the
county
and
they
can
do
with
it
hovers
whatever
they
want,
so
our
our
charge
was
to
offer
it
and
give
it
to
the
highest
proposer.
That's
our
duty
and
that's
what
we
have
here
with
you
this
evening.
C
K
M
Want
to
I
want
to
make
a
legal
comment
and
I
apologize
for
injecting
dr.
Reddy
is
not
overstating
this
as
a
legal
process.
Our
oversight
board
here
in
Palm
Springs
doesn't
do
business
anymore
after
June
30th.
So
you
can
come
back.
July
11th
as
the
successor
agency
and
you
can
have
a
hearing
and
we
can
be
engaged
in
the
sale
of
the
property,
which
is
what
was
identified
in
the
long
range
property
management
plan.
M
C
I
To
complete
my
questions,
I,
it's
a
little
bit
uncomfortable
my
instinct
on
this
because
of
the
stories
that
we're
getting
are
a
little
bit
difficult
to
understand
and
follow.
Obviously,
dr.
Reddy.
We
chose
to
go
ahead
and
sell
it
as
a
city,
because
there's
a
potential
that
the
city
could
benefit
financially
versus
handing
it
off
to
handing
it
off
back
to
the
county
to
sell
off
and
we've
gone
through.
That
process
was
mr.
spawn
and
I
know
the
offers
are
coming
in
higher
than
we
had
even
expected,
which
is
again
a
benefit
to
the
city.
I
I
know
we
don't
get
to
keep
the
majority
of
these
dollars,
but
we
do
get
to
keep
some
of
them.
Is
that
correct
approximately
1/3?
That's
approximately
1/3,
so
the
more
money
that
is
paid
for
this
property,
the
more
we
as
a
city
benefit.
My
instinct
would
be
to
give
this
back
to
mark
spawn
to
give
us
his
back
best
recommendations.
You
know
here
this
offer
see
if
this
was
legitimate
and
maybe
empower
you
to
make
the
final
decision
on
this.
I
I
M
Want
to
interject
again
in
response
to
that
comment
and
the
the
whole
process
were
engaged
in
right
now,
there's
a
concept
of
fiduciary
duty
that
each
member
of
that
oversight
board
here
in
Palm
Springs
has
with
respect
to
their
taxing
entity
the
city
in
its
capacity
as
the
successor
agency
has
its
own
representatives
on
that
oversight
board
and
as
a
practical
matter,
the
price
is
not
always
the
only
thing
that
matters
there
may
be
other
district
district
interests
or
city
interests
that
motivate
a
school
district
board.
Member
I.
I
G
You
know
I
have
a
few
questions
for
staff.
It
is
difficult
for
us
as
a
council
and
I
always
say
this
each
time
we
get
something
this
day
this
evening,
because
we
got
your
letters
which
I
really
appreciate
just
now
when
I
sat
down
and
I
was
trying
to
read
them
as
quickly
as
I
could,
while
you're
speaking-
and
we
really
want
to
give
you
the
time
in
consideration,
because
it's
important
and
we
value
your
business
and
Palm
Springs
and
we're
grateful
for
all
of
your
business
that
you've
done
here
for
our
city.
G
So
you
know
that's
sad
I!
Don't
want
any
precedent
that
every
time
we
get
a
last-minute
letter
or
an
offer
that
we
change
our
course
because
we
do
we
did
go
to
through
a
process.
But
I
agree
with
my
colleague
that
the
process
is
unclear
to
me
and
it
sounds
like
the
tenant
or
the
any
potential
owner
wasn't
actually
notified
in
this
process,
and
that
we
is
that
right
that
they
weren't
reached
out
to
to
see
if
they
could
would
be
interested
in
purchasing
the
building.
I.
P
P
G
That
who
provided
public
comment
right
now,
no
okay,
and
so
mr.
David
dr.
David
Reddy.
Could
you
explain
to
me
what
happens
when
you
when
we
miss
that
deadline?
So
what
happened?
So
you
said
it
might
go
to
the
County
Board.
Can
you
specifically
explain
if
we
miss
the
deadline,
and
can
we
just
give
you
the
authority
to
make
the
make
this
decision
before
the
deadline,
or
do
you
need
council
action
tonight,
I.
C
Would
say
the
this
is
a
little
different
process.
It
is
a
state
process
that
mandates
we
have
to
have
this
public
hearing,
so
I
council
would
need
to
act
this
evening.
What
happens
after
June
30th?
It's
it's.
It's
it's
only
a
change
in
the
state
process
insofar
as,
instead
of
you
acting
as
the
body,
that's
going
to
prove
it.
The
County
six
successor
agency
is
going
to
act
as
the
body
that
approves
it.
That's
the
only
difference,
so
this
will
just
be
their
decision
who.
M
The
county
has
control
over
the
appointment
of
those
individuals.
I
want
to
pick
up
on
your
comment.
If
I
understood
your
question
to
dr.
Reddy,
correctly,
I
think
I
heard
you
asking
him
if
the
council
could
vote
tonight
to
empower
him
prior
to
the
oversight
board
meeting
to
effectively
represent
the
cities
or
the
successor
agencies,
best
interest
in
this
transaction
and
execute
any
transaction
that
he
deems
in
the
best
interest
of
the
successor
agency.
Since,
if
I'm
hearing
councilmembers,
you
don't
think
you
have
all
the
information.
Is
that
about
right?
Yes,.
G
C
Well,
just
just
to
be
clear
that
a
criteria
would
be
who
has
the
the
the
best
offer
in
the
city's
interest
now
I
would
just
know-
and
this
is
a
question,
maybe
for
either
mr.
spawn
or
or
J.
What
is
our
obligation,
our
wien
currently
in
escrow
now?
What
is
there
currently
current
obligation
in
good
faith
with
the
purchaser?
If.
P
I,
if
I
may
indicate
I
believe
the
successor
agency,
which
is
the
City
Council,
currently
will
remain
past
June
30th.
It
is
the
oversight
board
made
up
of
other
individuals
and
representatives
that
will
become
one
countywide
oversight
board.
However,
we
do
not
know
what
their
processes
will
be,
how
long
it
will
take
to
process
sale
of
properties,
which
means
the
tenant
will
be
in
limbo
that
much
longer.
P
K
G
G
I
knew
someone
who
looked
and
didn't
find
it,
so
maybe
that
was
that
person
personally
I
don't
feel
comfortable
voting
on
this
tonight
and
I
would
ask
that
we
either
vote
to
give
the
city
manager
approval
or
authority
to
make
the
best
decision
in
the
best
interest
of
the
city.
For
me
for
redevelopment
property,
there's
more
interest
than
just
the
higher
amount,
including
supporting
local
businesses,
which
is
important
so
I
just
like
them
to
have
consideration
and
I.
Don't
have
enough
information
to
know.
If
that
happened
tonight,
I.
M
A
Think
I
personally,
like
the
idea
of
giving
the
city
manager
the
authority
to
make
a
decision
there's
a
couple
of
issues,
though,
that
I
want
to
get
and
I
clearly
want
to
support
local
business.
But
anyone
who's
been
through
a
real
estate
transaction
knows
that
there
needs
to
be
a
deadline
and
that
deadlines
exist
for
a
reason,
and
it
would
be
fabulous
for
all
of
us
to
be
able
to
wait
until
that
deadline.
It
has
passed
and
then
be
able
to
prou
offer
a
new
offer.
A
I
I
Don't
remember
what
I
was
gonna
say
at
this
point
I
my
question
to
you,
dr.
Reddy
is:
if,
if
we
as
a
council
tonight,
decide
to
go
ahead
and
give
you
the
authority
to
make
that
decision
at
any
point,
you
feel
you
want
to
make
that
decision.
Is
that
something
we
can
do?
We
clearly
have
an
offer
that
that
you
can
approve,
but
if
you
see
under
further
review
of
what's
become
before
us
tonight
that
it's
worth
pursuing,
you
make
that
call
I,
just
them
uncomfortable
with
us
doing
that
here
tonight.
I
C
C
Let
me
just
offer
this
I
think,
because
a
subcommittee
on
this,
for
a
very
specific
reason
would
be
for
a
week
would
be
important
only
because
we
need
to
do
this
within
the
next
a
week
or
so
and
and
because
potentially
we
could
be
selling
it
to
a
purchaser
under
value
and
and
that's
something
that
I
would
be
very,
very
hesitant
to
do
unless
the
City
Council
was
clear
that
we
were
doing
it
and
at
least
a
subcommittee
for
whatever
reason
in
the
best
city's
interest
would
be
on
board
with
that.
So
I
recommend.
D
Okay,
I
concur
with
most
of
these
comments
made
tonight
and
one
thing
about
this.
Building,
though
it's
in
deplorable
condition:
no
I
don't
already
it
is.
It
is
in
really
really
bad
condition.
I
think
it's
probably
has
asbestos
in
it
and
all
sorts
of
things.
So
there's
a
lot
of
factors
involved
in
this
and
it's
historic
building.
So
it's
in
deplorable
condition,
it's
historic
and
so
there's
a
lot
of
factors
other
than
just
the
price.
D
D
Certainly
an
expert
in
this
area
he's
known
this
building
since
it's
been
on
the
market
for
the
last
ten
years,
and
let's
empower
him
to
do
this
because
we
know
he's
gonna
get
at
least
five
hundred
thousand,
so
so
make
sure
you
I'm
sorry
you're
out
of
work.
I'm
sorry
you're
out
of
order,
sir
you're
out
of
order,
sir,
so
I'm
just
saying
I
support
desk,
letting
dr.
Reddy
do
it
and
we
can
have
a
point
to
people
to
work
with
him
for
the
next
week.
G
I
I
I
D
So
we
have
a
motion
to
a
motion.
I'll
make
a
motion
yeah
dr.
berty,
a
city
clerk
you
want
to
make
the
restate.
The
motion
of
the
motion
we
have
here
is
to
approve
this
based
upon
dr.
Reddy's.
Looking
at
it,
we
approve
him
to
take
the
action
on
it
and
make
the
best
decision
what's
for
what's
best
for
the
city
and
the
price
will
be
at
least
five
hundred
thousand,
and
you
look
at
these
other
options
and.
E
D
B
D
B
You,
mayor
and
council,
this
is
your
annual
public

Kota
code

those
three
separate
resolutions.
The
total
lien
to

staff

Please
Thank.
B
You
mayor
in
council,
this
is
a
housekeeping
item
related
to
the
sarena
park
project
that
was
approved
by
council
last
year.
There's
two
elements
to
this:
the
first
element
mr.
Fogg,
will
touch
on
in
regards
to
ratifying
the
actual
final
form
of
the
tentative
tract
map
and
then
the
second
part
relates
to
the
security
note
to
secure
the
development
fee
as
part
of
the
development
agreement.
Mr.
Fang.
R
K
R
B
That
was
one
element
of
tonight's
action.
The
other
element
relates
to
a
final
action
by
the
City
Council,
relating
to
the
development
agreement
approved
last
summer.
In
its
negotiations
and
approval
of
the
development
agreement,
the
council
gave
careful
consideration
to
what's
called
the
development
agreement
fee
in
this
context.
For
this
project,
what
was
negotiated
was
the
fact
that,
in
return
for
converting
open
space
at
the
Palm
Springs
Country
Club
to
residential
development,
there
would
be
a
density
transfer
and
a
cost,
and
that
negotiated
fee
was
three
million
dollars.
B
The
council's
direction
to
staff
at
that
time
and
what
was
incorporated
into
the
terms
and
conditions
of
the
development
agreement
was
that
that
three
million
dollar
fee
would
be
due
and
payable
in
full
three
years
after
the
effective
date
of
the
development
agreement,
and
that
the
council
wanted
to
review
and
approve
the
form
of
the
security
instrument
that
would
be
guaranteeing
the
city's
receipt
of
that
payment.
A
note
was
provided
to
the
city's
contract
attorney
by
the
developer
at
the
end
of
last
year.
B
That
note
that
was
provided
proposed
a
three
million
dollar
guarantee
that
would
become
do
in
payable
in
three
years.
However,
it
proposed
that
that
would
not
go
into
default
at
the
end
of
three
years,
but
would
then
be
paid
out
at
four
percent.
Four
point:
two
five
percent
I
believe
introduced
over
the
following
17
years.
In
reviewing
the
proposed
note,
we
did
not
find
that
was
consistent
or
conformed
to
the
council's
direction
to
us
that
that
three
million
dollar
development
agreement
fee
be
paid
in
full
three
years
after
the
effective
date
of
the
development
agreement.
B
So
we
had
multiple
conversations
with
the
developer.
The
developer
presented
their
arguments
for
why
they
felt
their
new
conformed
to
the
council's
direction.
We
disagreed.
We've
had
several
meetings.
We
had
a
so
City
Council
subcommittee
that
was
appointed
to
meet
with
the
developer
and
work
with
staff
and
what's
been
presented
to
the
council.
B
So
you
have
the
developers
letter
and
their
proposed
note
in
your
supplemental,
folder
folder
and
the
development
agreement
itself
has
not
been
executed
as
effective,
because
this
last
remaining
piece.
The
note
that
secures
the
development
agreement
fee
is
what
has
held
up
that
that
execution.
So
we
would
recommend
that
you
consider
the
note
that
we've
provided
based
on
the
direction
we
received
from
the
City
Council
subcommittee,
but
as
an
alternative.
B
M
You,
mr.
mayor
mr.
mayor,
before
you
begin
your
council
consideration,
the
matter
I
do
want
to
know
for
brown
act
purposes
that
the
letter
and
the
note
drafted
by
the
developer
transmitted
to
me
that
was
referenced
earlier
in
the
developer's
comments.
It
is
in
the
yellow
folders
that
had
been
transmitted
to
the
council
previously,
but
it
is
available
for
the
public
if
anyone
wants
to
review
it.
Thank.
H
Thank
You
mayor,
it's
just
a
couple
questions
so
I'm
sure
I
understand
this
and
my
recollection
of
that
rather
lengthy
discussion
on
the
development
agreement
was
I.
Think
one
point:
the
majority
council
thought
ten
years
was
appropriate,
but
we
finally
developer
really
said
they
needed
20
and
that's
what
we
ended
up.
Agreeing
to
and
part
of
that
discussion
was
the
three
million
no
later
than
three
years.
So
what
the
subcommittee
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
if
the
subcommittee
is
recommending
is
that
we
extend
that
another
three
years
with.
H
M
Think
I'll
try
that
one
please!
Yes,
we
would.
We
would
have
the
legal
ability
to
foreclose
on
the
note
if,
if
the
terms
of
the
note
are
not
complied
with
by
the
developer,
you're
correct
that
there
would
be
some
call
associated
with
that.
I
I
doubt
highly
that
if
we
were
in
that
situation
that
we'd
be
dealing
with
it
amicably.
At
that
point
in
time,
I
suspect
that
lawyers
would
be
necessary
and
the
judicial
process
would
be
involved
difficult
for
me
to
give
you
a
precise
cost.
M
H
C
D
H
A
Councilman
Booker's
got
my
first
question
so
I'm
going
to
ask
the
second
I
want
to
make
sure
that
I
understand
what
it
is
that
pump,
Springs,
Country
Club
is
proposing
which
everyone
agrees,
that
they
have
three
years
in
which
to
pay
the
three
million
dollars
and
they're
supposed
to
be
paying
that,
based
on
seventy
seven
hundred
and
seventy
two
dollars
and
two
cents
per
lot
as
those
lots
are
being
sold.
Is
that
correct.
A
M
A
C
I
would
just
note
the
answer
in
in
my
18
years.
We
have
not,
I
don't
recall,
doing
a
this
kind
of
transaction.
The
second
part
of
your
question
is,
I
I,
don't
have
I,
don't
know,
actually,
if
we
even
have
the
capacity
or
ability
to
do
that
now
we
certainly
may
it's
just
I,
don't
see
a
very
clear
path
to
guarantee
the
city
will
get
its
return
dollars
all
right.
Thank
you.
I
M
I
I
M
I
I
I
D
Catch,
of
course,.
H
H
So
I
am
not
at
the
moment,
although
open
to
being
persuaded
wanting
to
change
this
and
we're
changing
something
we
agreed
to,
but
we're
not,
then
getting
anything
new
for
it
and
we
had
a
lengthy
meeting.
Three
of
us
were
at
with
councilmember
Mills
or
really
discussed
all
this
and
came
to
an
agreement,
and
so
we're
gonna
change
an
agreement,
and
we
should
have
some
more
thought
and
discussion
about
what
may
be
reasonable.
H
I
appreciate
the
subcommittee's
proposal,
which
I
understood
from
comments
from
the
developer,
which
met
which
wasn't
acceptable
to
them.
But
the
note
that
you
know
goes
to
2037
at
a
lower
interest
rate
than
people
can
get
further
home.
Mortgage
is
clearly
off
the
table
in
life,
in
my
view,
but
if
the
subcommittee
feels
strongly
about
what
they're
recommending
I'm
I'm
open
to
it,
but
I'd
love
to
hear
any
other
thoughts
from
the
subcommittee.
If
they
have
any
it's,
not
that's.
Okay,
too
yeah.
D
I
I
agree
that
we,
you
know,
we're
the
cities,
not
the
business
of
loaning
money
and
we're,
certainly
not
in
the
business
of
taking
unnecessary
risks,
and
it's
not
like
we're
taking
we're
asking
for
the
three
million
dollars
to
put
it
in
the
general
fund.
This
is
a
density
transfer,
and
so
this
three
million
dollars
has
a
specific
person
purpose
of
purchasing
other
land
elsewhere,
that's
privately
held
so
that
land
will
be
open
space
in
perpetuity
to
replace
this
open
space,
which
will
no
longer
be
open
space.
D
So
I
know
when
customer
Middleton
I
met
with
them.
We
were
trying
to
offer
something.
That
was
an
alternative
that
might
be
reasonable,
but
if
they
don't
want
to
accept
that
alternative,
then
I,
perhaps
if
this
is,
if
this
developments
not
going
to
work,
perhaps
it's
better
that
it
just
died
earlier
than
later
and
just
just
go
and
die
on
the
vine
over
years
and
years
and
years,
but
I,
don't
I,
don't
want
to
put
us
in
the
position
of
taking
any
risk
or
giving
or
loaning
money.
L
A
The
this
has
been
a
difficult
conversation
and
we
have
wanted
to
see
this
project
I
think
everyone
up
here
has
wanted
to
see
this
project
succeed
and
I
know
how
much
time
and
energy
has
gone
into
it.
What
we
were
trying
to
do
with
the
offer
that
was
put
forward,
that
we're
being
asked
to
do
here,
is
to
treat
this
in
the
fashion
of
a
late
payment.
A
And
what
we
were
trying
to
do
is
present
the
applicants
with
an
opportunity
to
be
able
to
do
that
and
I
would
agree
with
the
mayor
and
with
others.
If
this
is
not
an
acceptable
alternative,
I
don't
know
what
is
meet,
but
taking
this
out
for
17
years
with
a
note
at
four
and
a
quarter
percent
is
simply
not
acceptable.
G
You
you
know
this
is
this
is
difficult,
because
what
we
have
in
front
of
us
is
something
to
ratify
and
to
prove
that
the
developer
has
said
is
an
endpoint
for
them.
It
doesn't
work
and
so
I'm
not
comfortable
voting
for
anything
that
just
doesn't
work
for
this
project.
I
support
this
project.
I
know
the
community
supports
the
project.
It's
the
only
development
project
that
I
get
stopped
at
parties
to
talk
about
from
residents
of
four-season.
So
thank
you
for
that.
It
has
a
wide
range
of
community
support.
G
So
I'm
wondering
from
the
subcommittee
and
staff
what
other
work
or
negotiations
can
go
forward
before
we
vote
on
something
that
will
foreclose
a
project
I,
don't
think
any
of
us
don't
want
to
see
that
money
go
forward
or
go
to
the
Chino
Cone.
You
know.
That's
all
important,
but
it
seems
like
there's
still
room
for
negotiation,
but
yet
this
is
in
front
of
us
I.
D
D
Know
David
Aaron
went
home,
sir,
all
the
buttons
aren't
working.
You
know
this
is
very
brief.
Iii
remember
that
meeting
very
distinctly
because
we
had
a
long
discussion
on
this
and
I
thought.
We
were
very
clear
if
they
sold
a
lot,
they
were
going
to
give
us
a
certain
percentage
of
it.
I
don't
know
what
that
percentage
was
each
time
they
sold
a
lot
and
then
after
three
years
they
would
pay
the
bulk
of
the
remainder
of
the
three
million.
It
was
very
clear
to
us
at
that
time
and
I.
A
A
O
Thank
you
for
for
hearing
our
side,
I
heard
a
lot
of
what
you
just
said
and
I'd
like
to
try
to
clear
the
air
as
best
I
can,
with
all
of
you,
because
I
really
think
that
we,
the
overall
goal
of
what
we're
trying
to
do
that
we're
all
exactly
on
the
same
page.
So
we
actually
need
to
talk
about.
How
do
we
get
there?
How
does
it
work
and
there's
a
disconnect
between
some
of
the
comments
that
I'm
hearing
and
what
we
want
to
do
so?
O
What
we
heard
clear
as
a
bell,
which
I
think
everyone
of
you
is
stated
from
the
staff
is
three
million
dollars
in
three
years.
In
August
last
year
we
were
asked,
after
the
hearing
to
produce
a
No
to
make
that
in
effect-
and
we
did
that
in
less
than
a
week,
and
we
gave
you
the
structure
from
our
business
to
make
sure
you
get
that
three
million
dollars
and
not
discounted
all
of
that
three
million
dollars,
because
the
subcommittee
brought
that
up.
O
We
brought
that
up
and
the
mechanism
to
make
sure
that
it
is
not
discounted
is
well
known,
well
documented,
and
we
have
provided
that
to
the
city.
So
it's
no.
There
is
no
discount
yeah
section
3f
of
the
note
it
marks
here
to
get
more
technical
about
it,
but
I
wanted
to
make
that
very
clear
to
all
of
you
from
a
standpoint
of
a
development
agreement,
and
we
understand
this
is
the
first
one
done
in
the
city
of
Palm,
Springs
mark
and
I
have
done
lots
and
lots
and
lots
of
them.
O
The
standard
in
California
is
for
the
development
agreements
to
be
paid
incrementally,
as
units
come
through
that
didn't
work
for
you
because
of
the
Chino
cone.
You
needed
three
million
dollars
in
three
years
and
because
of
that,
we
constructed
a
note
to
get
you
the
three
million
dollars
in
three
years.
The
way
that
works
is
you
market?
The
note
if
there
is
a
discount
marketing
that
note
we
have
to
make
up
the
difference
so
that
value
that
note
goes
up
so
that
your
net
becomes
three
million
and
that's
in
the
section
3f.
O
So
that's
what
we
did
if
we
end
up
having
a
situation,
the
way
that
the
note
was
constructed
by
the
staff
instead
of
three
million,
it's
four
and
a
half
million,
and
it's
a
default
provision
that
doesn't
work.
It's
not
lendable
I
can't
go
in
order
to
build
a
project.
This
is
not
a
three
million
dollar
project
or
a
five
million
dollar
project.
Just
to
build
a
house
one.
It's
ten
million
dollars
just
to
get
off
the
ground.
To
do
that.
That
money
is
borrowed.
We
go
to
a
bank
and
borrow
it.
O
If
we
have
provisions
in
a
note
that
structured
the
way
we
got
from
staff,
no
bank
in
America
will
give
us
a
loan.
We're
dead.
I
got
to
make
that
really
clear
to
all
of
you.
We
work
in
a
world
of
finance,
I
work
with
equity
partners.
It's
got
to
work,
that's
why
we
structured
the
note
we
did,
and
you
told
us
three
million
dollars
in
three
years.
That's
what
we
wrote
very
simple.
O
E
A
What
we
have
said
is
we
don't
want
to
be
in
the
mortgage
business.
We
understand
all
right.
So
what
I
don't
understand
is
you
have
an
obligation
to
make
a
three
million
dollar
payment
within
three
years
right
if
you
fall
short
of
having
sold
enough
Lots
in
three
years,
you're
going
to
have
a
shortfall
right?
Why
can't
you
go
out
and
borrow
money
to
cover
that
shortfall
at
some
time
in
the
24
to
36
month,
because.
O
O
A
O
O
A
I
Thank
You
mayor
I,
you
know
I
think
the
subcommittee
did
a
good
job
on
this
I
think
the
subcommittee
created
a
very
generous
counter
proposal.
I
don't
want
to
get
into
the
he-said
he-said
between
what
the
developers
saying
and
what
our
staff
is
saying
happened,
but
I
recall
very
clearly
was
that
we
had
a
three
million
dollar
payment
to
be
made
in
three
years.
I
I
Have
no
problem
with
what
the
subcommittee
is
recommending.
I
have
no
problem
with
the
three
years
and
three
years,
I
think
it's
a
generous
proposal,
I'm,
even
okay
with
us,
making
that
loan
for
the
second
three
years
is
because
there's
an
interest
in
it.
There's
a
benefit
to
the
city
on
that
money.
What
I
am
absolutely
unwilling
to
do
is
take
that
risk
unless
it's
a
we're
in
we're
in
a
position
where,
if
they
default
or
lose
this
property,
we
risk
losing
the
money.
I
If
we
had
that
discussion
on
another
project
tonight
and
as
long
as
the
city's,
the
city
has
absolutely
no
business
partnering
with
a
developer
and
taking
a
risk
with
City
dollars.
I
would
I
would
see
that
as
a
massive
failure
on
all
of
our
part.
But
if
we're
guaranteed
the
dollars,
I
understand
us
supporting
a
developer
and
helping
them
move
forward,
just
not
partnering
with
them
and
shouldering
risk
if
they
can't
afford
to
finance
their
properties
their
projects,
it's
not
our
problem
and
I.
I
You
know
if,
if
they
can't
handle
this
project,
somebody
else
will
come
along
and
handle
it.
There's
a
great
opportunity
there
and
that's
all
there
is
to
it
yeah
it's
a
blight
because
another
developer
boil
it
that's
again,
not
our
fault.
Some
in
this
market
somebody
will
buy
that
property
and
somebody
will
come
up
with
a
plan
to
develop
it,
but
unless
just
to
reiterate
I'm
fine
with
what
the
subcommittee
I'm
ready
to
vote
on
that.
I
I
We
don't
and
I
don't
and
I'm,
not
even
uncomfortable
with
us
negotiating
all
this
at
the
Dyess.
This
wasn't
right,
I'm,
not
saying
that
staff
screwed
up
I'm,
just
saying
this
wasn't
right.
The
developer
clearly
is
saying
they
can't
do
this
deal
and
we're
in
it's
almost
like
we're
again
selling.
You
know:
auctioning
off
property
at
the
dice.
It's
a
very
odd
night
tonight,
so.
Q
I
I'd
love
to
suggest
is
that
this
go
back
to
subcommittee
one
final
time.
If
the
subcommittee
can
stomach
it
and
make
it,
and
if
staff
would
get
us
the
information
on
our
risk
level
on
the
loan
that
might
make
a
big
difference,
this
might
move
very
easily.
They
might
be
able
to
work
with
that.
If
not,
we
need
to
move
on.
That's
my
recommendation
is.
M
And
I
do
want
to
sort
of
address
a
paragraph
that
mr.
Allen
referenced
in
their
version
of
the
note,
there's
a
dispute
resolution
protocol.
That's
in
this
note
where,
what's
the
note
really
worth
gets
decided
by
one
expert
and
then
another
expert
and
then
Dueling
Banjos,
and
if
we
can't
agree,
we
go
to
a
third
expert
whose
determination
is
final
and
they
have
to
pay
an
inflated
amount
per
month.
During
this
whole
dispute
period
and
at
the
end
of
the
day,
dr.
Reddy
and
I
were
talking.
It's
the
market
right.
M
K
I
A
M
I
Understanding
is
they
paid
a
million
dollars
for
the
property?
What
are
we
behind?
That's
that's.
If
I
had
that
figure
right
now,
I
could
make
it
I
could
make
a
decision
right
now
myself,
but
without
that
information
there's
no
way
to
know.
We
just
simply
don't
know
where
we
are
in
line
on
a
repayment
and
a
default.
It's
a
really
easy
answer
again.
What
you're
saying.
G
I,
don't
have
enough
information,
I'm
sitting
here
trying
to
which,
by
the
way
we
got
the
fixed-rate
note
from
the
developer,
and
this
letter
after
our
staff
reports
or
staff
report,
isn't
able
to
compare
so
I'm
sitting
here.
Trying
to
compare
these
documents,
which
I
just
can't
do
right
now
so
I
agree.
It's
not
ripe.
I,
don't
want
to
negotiate
from
the
Dyess
I
would
support,
and
second
your
motion
to
put
this
back
to
the
subcommittee
and
then
bring
it
forward
when
we
have
all
of
that
information
to.
C
No
sighing
I
was
just
gonna
recommend
exactly
what
you
suggested
to,
but
it
this
is
the
end
of
a
multi-year
process.
There
is
clear
direction
from
Council
clear
direction
to
the
developer.
They
knew
what
it
was
of
coffee.
They
they
prefer
something
different,
but
sometimes
we
need
to
have
this
process,
so
they
can
fully
hear
the
council
sentiment.
We
go
back
to
discussion
and
perhaps
there's
a
better
negotiated
agreement
to
come
back.
Thank.

Of
a

agreement
between
the
city
of
Palm,

and

Association
of
Governments
and
approval
of
plans,
specifications
and
estimates
and
authorization
to
bid
and
delegation
of
authority
toward
construction
bids
for
the
Indian,
Canyon
Drive,
two-way
conversion
and
pedestrian
and
bicycle

enhancements
city
projects
Stephanie.
Oh
eight
staff
record.
Please
good.
F
Evening,
honorable
mayor
and
council
members,
this
project
is
the
Indian
Canyon
two-way
conversion
and
bicycle
pedestrian
safety
project.
The
city
was
awarded
a
two
million
dollar
grant
for
a
2.7
million
dollar
bicycle
pedestrian
safety
project
on
Indian
Canyon.
Subsequently,
the
city
received
approval
for
an
additional
1.5
million
for
a
two
million
dollar
Indian
Canyon,
a
conversion
project.
F
It's
important
for
the
city
and
seabag
to
have
this
project
under
construction
during
the
off-season.
Seabag
wants
the
bicycle
pedestrian
improvements
completed,
because
this
is
one
of
their
signature
projects
for
the
region.
They
want
this
to
be
the
the
project
that
everyone
looks
to
as
the
success
and
it's
important
for
the
city
to
get
this
project
completed
during
the
offseason
in
order
to
minimize
the
impacts
to
the
business
community.
F
For
that
reason,
we're
asking
the
council
to
authorize
the
city
manager
to
award
the
construction
contract
during
the
August
recess.
We're
still
one
of
the
items
in
the
project
that
was
originally
included
in
project
was
the
roundabouts
at
Camino
para
Sela
in
Indian,
Canyon,
Palm
Canyon.
That
improvement
required
the
acquisition
of
right
away
and
it
wasn't
quite
bait.
So
we
took
that
out
as
a
separate
project
are
pursuing
signalization
of
that
intersection,
but
we're
still
pursuing
the
design
and
the
construction
of
a
roundabout
by
a
separate
project.
F
D
I
H
H
You'll
never
do,
and
just
a
reminder
that
sometimes
you
have
to
spend
a
little
money
to
go
out
and
get
grants
and
I
just
want
to
say
you
know,
I
know
Marcus
and
your
team
did
such
an
amazing
job
to
get
this
much
funding
for
this
project
is
remarkable
and
so
I
really
want
to.
Thank
you
I
want
to
thank
the
subcommittee,
which
is
council
member
little
cinema,
mayor
pro-tem
Roberts
and
both
the
mayor
and
council
Middleton
at
various
evac
committees.
H
Don't
know
you
don't
age,
it's
scary,
so
I
just
really
want
to
commend
everyone
who
worked
on
this
I've
mostly
been
on
the
sidelines,
but
just
watching
the
different
pieces
come
together,
just
shows
what
we
can
do
and
how
amazing
our
staff
is.
So
thank
you
that
is
it.
K
I
I'll
be
very
I
just
want
to
especially
thank
dr.
ready.
I
I
want
a
second
everything
councilman
course
and
I
want
to
thank
you
doctor
ready,
because
this
was
a
this
was
a
dream
without
a
dollar
less
than
a
year
ago,
and
you
made
real
magic
here,
as
you
often
do,
but
this
along
with
Marcus
and
the
rest
of
the
staff,
did
an
amazing
job
with
this
I.
I
Don't
think
I
ever
smiled
as
hard
when
I
saw
the
balance
do
on
this
project,
I
think
it
was
$10,000
at
a
2.7
or
something,
and
you
guys
hit
it
out
of
the
park,
and
this
is
going
to
be
such
an
amazing
improvement
for
the
city,
and
it
can't
happen
soon
enough
as
we're
already
building
a
lot
of
traffic
downtown.
So
thank
you.
Thank
you
all!
A
Mendelson
I
guess
I
get
to
be
third
on
thinkings
Marcus.
I
A
Dr.
Etienne
and
Tom
for
all
of
your
work.
This
is
this
truly
is
going
to
be
a
game-changer
for
the
south
end
of
downtown
and
for
those
of
us
who
live
on
the
south
end
of
town
as
well
as
everybody
who
uses
Indian
Canyon,
the
roundabout
I
see
that
you're
trying
to
keep
it
alive.
What
do
you
need
to
make
the
roundabout
work
and
how
realistic
is
it
that
we
can
pull
that
off?.
F
We
need
we
need
a
design
that
addresses
truck
turning.
We
think
we're
almost
there.
It's
going
to
require
a
bit
of
right-of-way
acquisition,
we're
trying
to
minimize
that
the
the
cost
right
now
is
unknown
because
of
the
extent
of
the
right-of-way
acquisition,
it's
very
doable
and
it's
quite
frankly,
the
right
location
for
a
roundabout.
The
number
of
intersections.
H
F
G
F
F
F
Is
that
is
the
modified
roundabout
and
you
can
see
the
right-of-way
ting
right
away
takes
in
the
lower
left,
lower
right-hand
corner,
where
the
sidewalk
approach
is
closer
to
the
building
and
in
the
lower
left-hand
corner,
where
we're
taking
out
a
bit
of
the
vacant
lot
so
that
that
is
the
modified
round
about
the
signalized
intersection
is
going
to
be
much
more
similar
to
what
you
see
on
page
four.
So.
F
G
D
D
Another
reason
for
this
is
to
slow
down
that
traffic
on
Indian
Canyon,
because
the
traffic
LeMans
was
people
are
leaving
the
Coachella
Valley
on
and
Sunday.
So
this
is
a
win-win-win
all
the
way
around.
So
we
have
a
motion
approved
by
Mayor
Pro
Tem
Roberson
second,
by
councilmember
Coors
motion
is
on
the
floor.
E
E
D
D
B
You,
mayor
and
council,
as
you'll
recall
earlier
this
year,
the
council
approved
a
limited
term
agreement
with
PS
power,
which
expires
the
end
of
July.
The
terms
and
conditions
of
this
agreement
are
essentially
the
same
as
that
agreement,
except
the
term,
is
much
longer
it's
a
seven-year
term.
Three
years
with
two
two
year,
extensions
we've
discussed
with
mr.
B
Starkey
the
terms
and
conditions
of
this
longer-term
agreement,
he's
agreed
to
those
terms,
except
for
one
minor
change
that
I've
handed
out
to
you,
essentially
in
lieu
of
a
60-day
termination
clause
which
has
been
in
his
agreement
and
hasn't
been
an
issue,
obviously,
because
we
never
terminated
his
contract.
He's
asked
for
a
six-month
termination
clause
just
because
of
some
of
the
advance
bookings
that
he
is
involved
with
with
some
of
these
leagues,
and
so,
if
you're
agreeable
to
that,
we've
proposed
that
change
and
that's
what
I've
handed
out
to
you.
So
with
that
mr.
H
You
so
I
do
think.
I
spoke
to
missus,
Torquay
I,
think
that's
a
good
change
given
there's
a
summer
league
in
winter
league
and
it's
different
than
when
he
started,
and
so,
if
counsel
is
agreeable
to
that,
I
think
it
would
be
good
and
I
just
want
to
really
also
just
take
a
minute
to
acknowledge
TS
Resorts
because
they're
using
their
money
to
fund
half
of
his
rent
to
have
mate
to
make
this
work
because
they
think
it
does
help
tourism.
H
D
You
I
could
Curran
also
with
the
the
extension
is
probably
important
too,
because,
as
you
mentioned
he's,
he
leases
so
many
hotel
rooms
that
those
agreements
for
the
hotel
rooms
are
also
a
longer
term.
So
it's
very
important
for
him
to
have
a
little
bit
of
flexibility
on
that.
So
we
have
a
motion
to
approve,
maybe
by
councilmember
Coors
seconded
by
Mayor
Pro
Tem
Robert's
motion
is
on
the
floor.
D
C
Amended,
yes,
thank
you,
mayor
mayor
and
this
mayor
council
on
this
staff
report.
Mr.
keel
is
here
to
address
any
questions
you
have,
but
we
wanted
to
highlight
this
obviously
with
in
regards
to
that
the
CalPERS
expenses.
This
is
one
tool
that
we
have
that
we
can
have
actually
save
a
little
bit
actually
substantial
amount
of
dollars
in
this
case
$250,000.
By
making
this
prepayment
Jeff.
Could
you
just
explain
the
two
reasons
things
that
we're
concerned
about
our
one?
C
R
I
on
here:
yes,
so
yes,
the
number
one,
of
course
do
we
have
million
dollars
in
cash
available
to
make
this
early
payment?
And,
yes,
we
do.
Thanks
to
this
time
of
year,
we
get
an
influx
of
property
taxes
right
this
time,
so,
instead
of
immediately
pouring
it
into
locked-in
investments,
we
keep
this
money
on
hand
in
order
to
make
this
payment.
The
other
portion
of
this
is
the
analysis
that
I
do
to
see.
R
What
are
we
giving
up
by
giving
away
nine
million
dollars
at
the
beginning
of
the
year
versus
leaving
it
in
our
investment
portfolio
for
the
whole
year?
And
you
see
that
calculation
here
so
we're
actually
losing
about
eighty
thousand
dollars
in
lost
interest,
but
that
is
more
than
offset
by
the
substantial
savings
of
three
hundred
and
thirty
thousand
dollars
upfront
by
making
this
payment.
This
is
the
second
year
we've
been
permitted
to
do
this
early
payment.
Last
year
we
saved
two
hundred
and
twenty
thousand
dollars,
so
dr.
H
H
And
so
just
from
going
back
to
sort
of
our
conversation
with
the
State
Controller,
is
there
any
thought
this
makes
sense
right
a
lot?
A
number
of
cities
are,
instead
of
keeping
their
own
pension
reserve
at
a
2%
or
less
rate
of
return
or
having
CalPERS
manage
that
at
a
six
and
a
half
percent.
If
the
same
logic
would
apply
right,
that
would
be
the
anticipated
Delta.
Yes,
if
we
want.
I
A
H
R
The
so
the
question
about
this
is
really
a
bet
over
the
future
about
where
interest
rates
are
going
to
go
it
you
could,
if
you
don't,
have
money
available,
then
you
have
the
option.
To
borrow
many
years
ago,
at
the
advice
of
one
of
my
predecessors,
we
entered
into
a
pension
obligation
bond
for
approximately
half
of
our
unfunded
liability.
At
that
time.
The
the
challenge
is
that
when
you
get
down
the
road,
the
data
becomes
obscured
and
it's
really
hard
to
analyze
and
say:
did
that
work
or
not
I
mean
you?
R
Can
you
can
do
some
one
analysis?
We
work
with
our
financial
advisors
substantially
and
we
think
it
turned
out.
Ok,
but
it's
definitely
not
a
given
I
think
you
know
it
this
time
the
GFO
a
advises
against
doing
that
kind
of
borrowing.
So
the
only
other
thing
is:
if
you
have
extra
cash
reserves
available,
you
can
go
ahead
and
pay
down.
Part
of
your
unfunded
liability
I
think
we're
a
little
thin
in
our
general
fund
reserves
to
be
doing
that,
but
certainly
to
whatever
extent
you
can
make
even
modest
extra
payments.
R
That's
good,
but
just
a
reminder
to
the
public.
We
keep
talking
about
the
the
new
pers
reserve
that
this
board
established
this
council
established
a
year
ago
when
we
were
doing
leaking
our
projections
over
this
next
six
years
of
averaging
six
and
a
half
million
dollar
increases
in
our
minimum
required
contributions.
So
that's
very
that's
different
from
the
unfunded
liability.
The
minimum
contributions
is
what
we
must
pay
you're
in
you're
out.
R
So
if
you
were
to
take
that
11
million
dollars
that
you
have
now
paid
down
your
reserves,
your
minimum
contribution
is
still
going
to
be
approximately
six
and
a
half
million
shares.
So
you
only
get
about
a
nickel
on
the
dollars
value
for
decreasing
your
minimum
Conte.
If
that
helps
it
all
I
think
that's
a
point
that
it's
easily
missed
and.
H
R
D
You
next
item
new
business
item:
5c
approval
of
a
resolution
authorizing
a
California
statewide
communities,
Development
Authority,
to
form
a
community
facilities
district
within
the
territorial
limits
of
the
city
of
Palm
Springs
to
finance
certain
public
improvements
and
development
fees
embodying
a
joint
community
facilities,
agreement
setting
forth
the
terms
and
conditions
of
the
community
facilities,
district
financing,
approving
an
acquisition
agreement
between
the
city
and
Saline
Park
Palm
Springs
LLC,
a
California
limited
liability
company
and
authorizing
staff
to
cooperate
with
the
authority
and
its
consultants
in
connection
thereof.
Staff
report
please
Thank.
B
That's
authorized
by
your
action
tonight,
the
city
and
the
state
pretty
much
have
the
same
standards
for
these
financing
districts,
which
require
a
four
to
one
value
to
lien
ratio,
which
this
project
will
more
than
accomplish,
and
not
more
than
a
two
percent
tax
rate.
The
projections
at
this
point
have
the
tax
rates
at
1.8
to
1.9
percent
on
those
condominium
units,
and
so
with
that,
we
would
recommend
that
you
adopt
the
resolution,
which
essentially
established
this
this
new
community
facilities,
district
specific
to
the
property
related
to
the
dream
hotel.
B
G
B
The
dream
hotel
does
have
a
residential
component.
These
are
going
to
be
very
high-end
million-dollar-plus
units
that
are
pretty
typical
for
four
star
plus
hotels,
with
a
residential
component,
where
the
owners
essentially
can
rent
back
the
units
to
the
hotel
and
they
operate
as
hotel
rooms
or
they
can
be
permanent.
You
know
condominium
units
for
those
owners
that
choose
to
live
there
permanently,
but
there
is
that
residential
component
and
so
they've
split
out
the
financing
appropriately
between
the
bulk
of
it
with
the
hotel
and
some
of
the
the
debt
service
going
to
those
condominium
units.

D
Holstege
I'd
like
to
call
mention
that
when
we
had
the
discussions
on
this
were
rather
lengthy.
It
was
pointed
out
to
us
by
the
developer
that
there
are
is
people
nowadays
who
would
like
to
have
buy
these
condos
and
they
would
have
the
availability,
the
hotel
services
they
could
have
their
their
meals
brought
to
them
and
they
could
have
housekeeping
services
etc.
So
that's
actually
a
model
that
a
lot
of
upper
income
people
really
like
to
have
a
now
where
they
don't
have
to
worry
about
it.

Oh
one
staff
report,
please
good.
F
Evening,
honorable
mayor
and
councilmembers
before
you
tonight
is
the
2018
pavement
rehab
project.
This
project
consisted
of
a
base
bid
and
four
alternates.
The
base
bid
would
rehabilitate
streets
for
the
PCI
of
52
and
53.
The
bid
alternate
a
wood
rehab,
a
portion
of
the
streets
with
a
PCI
of
54
and
would
also
address
the
deferred
streets
that
were
not
done
in
previous
years.
Due
to
utility
conflicts,
those
streets
have
PCI's
between
46
and
51.
F
It
alternate
B
would
construct
drainage
improvements
on
various
roadways
using
drainage
funds
bid
alternate
C
would
rehab
the
parking
lot
at
Indian,
Canyon
and
arenas
and
bid
alternate
D
is
the
pedestrian
improvements
at
Museum
Wayne,
with
that
staff
recommends
the
award
of
this
project
and
award
of
the
authorization
for
the
PIO
for
construction
inspection
services.
Happy
to
answer
any
questions:
hey
pretend
robbers.
I
I
They
they
often
notice
and
then
don't
do
the
work
and
then
come
in
another
time
was
no
noticing
so
people
prepare
their
driveways
and
do
all
sorts
of
things,
and
then
the
company
never
shows
up
and
H
and
then,
when
they
do
show
up
they're
surprised
that
the
neighbors
are
angry,
because
they're
now
blocked
into
their
driveways
and
can't
get
out
of
their
houses.
I
fear
there's
a
safety
component
to
this
too,
when
massive
trucks
are
blocking
streets,
an
ambulance
and
emergency
equipment
can't
get
to
them.
In
fact,
I
had
it.
I
I've
heard
this
from
different
people
in
the
community,
and
yesterday
my
own
contractor
couldn't
come
to
my
house
because
again
with
no
notice
on
the
property,
you
couldn't
get
out
of
his
driveway
for
a
repaving
project.
So
this
seems
to
be
a
problem.
I've
had
this
conversation
with
Marcus
in
the
past,
how
do
we
ensure
that
these
companies
hold
a
high
standard
with
respect
communication
with
the
community?
It's.
F
I
C
C
It
happens
great
so
so
so
you
could
schedule
your
weekly
meetings
with
the
contractor.
Yes
to
be
assured
that
you
get
that
information,
that's
correct!
Okay!
Well,
we'll
discuss
that
further,
but
I
think
that
would
be
a
good
idea
to
implement
that
with
this
contract.
Why
don't
one
the
question
I
had?
Is
you
know
the
council
approved
the
bike.
Thing
was
three
hundred
fifty
thousand
and
the
airport
budget
to
do
Kirk,
Douglas
Road!
Oh,
that's
not
part
of
this.
What
that.
A
We're
still
planning
to
do
an
update
of
the
PC
ice
cores
sometime
in
the
fall
winters.
In
my
correct
this.
F
G
Thank
you
is
gonna.
Ask
those
questions
as
well.
So
when
was
the
PCI
study
done,
it
was
2014
or
was
it
that's.
F
F
G
C
C
But
but
again,
but
it's
it's
like
the
census
data,
it's
too
old,
it's
gets
stale,
so
we
minute
we
can
mitigate
for
that
by
by
basically
we
drop
down
or
drop
high
go
higher
on
the
score
lower
on
the
score,
and
we
just
presume
that
there's
there's
additional
deterioration,
so
we
would
modify
the
scores-
administrative
leaders,
probably
the
worst
street,
and
then
it's
always
helpful
that
if
we
can
throw
extra
money
at
the
three
surface
and
then
grab
some
of
those
extra
streets.
Thank.
F
G
G
The
cracks
so
I
know
it's
a
heated
issue
for
a
lot
of
our
people
in
our
community,
who
we
all
want
beautiful,
great
streets
that
we're
doing
so.
Thank
you
for
your
work.
So
we
did
see.
A
number
of
people
complain
about
some
of
the
slurry
steel
work,
at
least
that
it
was
cracking
and
that
it
was
making
some
roads
worse
than
they
were
before,
and
I
asked
Marcus
to
review
that
and
just
review
the
work
of
the
contractor.
So
could
you
still
work
together
to
look
at
the
quality
of
the
work,
not.
O
G
Particular
comment
about
this
specific
contractor,
but
just
those
are
that's
the
feedback
we're
getting
from
the
community
and
then
I
just
want
to
make
a
comment
to
my
council
members.
I
think
this
makes
sense
and
I
really
support
this
project
and
our
plan
to
appropriate
measure.
J
funds
going
forward.
I
know
that
we
still
have
a
lot
of
road
work
to
do,
and
this
is
a
really
important
project.
I
just
want
to
note
that
we
have
spent
twenty
two
point:
five
million
dollars
for
a
lot
of
our
streets.
G
That
would
build
us,
a
new
library
which
I
know
we
really
want
so
I
know
at
that
time
that
what
this
was
important
I
want
to
make
sure
as
we're
looking
at
a
council
that
we
spend
especially
measure
J,
I
love,
seeing
the
measure
a
and
the
gas
tax
and
all
of
the
other
funds
to
do
that.
But
I'd
like
to
look
at
we're
gonna
bring
forward
the
capital
improvement
plan
for
a
lot
of
that
measure,
J
money
as
well.
Thank
you.
F
H
That
is
the
number
at
least
we've
been
told
so
far
that
if
we
spend
once
we
get
all
the
roads
up
to
a
good
condition,
we
will
maintain
them
and
not
fall
back.
Eighty
million
dollars
again
so
I
would
love
to
spend
it
on
other
things,
but
we
dig
ourselves
in
a
hole
that
ends
up
costing
us
a
lot
of
money
to
get
out.
So
I
just
want
to
be
conscious
of
the
reason
we're
trying
to
spend
that.
H
So
if
we
can
just
keep
on
bringing
more
revenue,
please
thank
you
staff
and
to
everyone
else
who
pays
taxes.
That
would
help,
but
that's
the
reason,
because
we
got
in
such
a
bad
hole,
we're
now
spending
so
much
on
it.
I
just
didn't
want
to
follow
up
on
your
comment.
Councilmember
holstege
on
you
know.
When
we
get
complaints
about
the
roads
being
bad
I
think
we
tend
to
send
them
to
Marcus
who
there
has
to
be
a
better
process,
then
you
then
having
to
doubt
about
every
street.
H
H
Or
someone
else,
but
yes
but
I:
let's
can
we
make
it
easier,
then,
because
we
can't
talk
to
each
other
when
we
get
these
things
and
sometimes
we're
sending
things
to
different
people.
So,
given
the
number
of
complaints
lately,
we've
been
getting
on
this
both
on
you
know
the
issues
mayor
pro-tem
raised
and
the
ones
councilmember
holsters
raised.
F
F
G
If
there
were,
we
just
don't
have
a
good
Avenue
to
direct
people,
and
so
even
if
there
were
a
complaint
or
not
a
complaint
like
a
comment
form
on
the
website,
we
have
that
through
some
of
the
traffic
and
this
we
have
a
comment
box,
just
like
an
inquiry
box
on
the
website,
and
then
you
could
streamline
the
process
and
then
assign
staff
as
needed.
Okay,
more
than
just
that
I
mean
if
you
post
the
information
they're.
D
K
D
With
hand
like
comment
on
is
David
what
measure
J
was
what
six
years
ago
now,
six
years
ago,
when
we
formed
the
measure,
J,
Commission
and
I
was
fortunate
enough
to
be
on
it.
Our
roads
were
in
horrible
condition
and
very
little
work
had
been
done
in
years
and
years
and
years,
and
that's
one
of
the
first
things
we
jumped
into,
and
it's
the
council
at
that
time,
took
our
recommendations
to
really
put
a
lot
of
money
into
this,
and
there
was
a
couple
things
we
did
I
think
which
is
important.
One.
D
The
bulk
purchases
are
better
because
roads
Marcus
explained
to
us
is
when
you
have
a
bigger
contract,
you
get
more
more
bang
for
your
buck,
because
you,
the
cost
per
square
foot,
is
less.
When
you
buy
a
lot
of
square
feet
at
once,
and
that's
one
reason:
two
councils
ago,
they
actually
took
a
bond
out
again.
It's
a
measure
a
so
they
could
have
some
extra
money
that
year
to
do
eight
million
dollars
for
the
paving
which
got
a
lot
of
roads
done
that
year
and
also
I
measure.
D
J
commission
paid
for
this
first
PCI
study
like
five
or
six
years
ago,
and
because
there
hadn't
been
one
done
in
years
and
this
PCI
study's
been
pretty
good
and
I.
Think
one
reason
for
that
is
because,
when
a
piece
of
when
we
received
the
PCI
study,
we
had
a
group
that
was
combined
people
from
from
the
staff
and
also
from
measure
J,
Commission
and
also
from
1ps,
and
they
all
sat
and
reviewed
that
PCI
report
and
got
input
from
the
communities
etc.
D
D
C
You
mayor
members
of
council,
you
recall
it's
been
about
a
year
over
a
year
ago,
of
where
we
partnered
with
the
the
tribe,
the
Tribal
Council,
to
do
this
feasibility
study
at
the
Visitor
Center.
It
was
about
each.
Our
contribution
was
east
about
thirteen
thousand
dollars
each.
That
study
is
now
done
and
council
member
Mills
was
the
liaison
prior.
C
D
C
No,
it's
also
mayor.
Actually,
it's
also
the
potential
of
expansion
of
the
can
of
the
tourism
center.
The
visitor
center,
the
tribe,
would
be
part
of
that
because
they
have
a
they
would
rent
part
of
it
and
then
also
potential
for
with
the
private
landowner,
their
expansion
of
whether
it's
retail
parking
or
other
possible
kinds
of
shops.
M
Mayor
before
you
proceed
further,
I
just
wanted
to
offer
the
council
the
opportunity
to
re
convene
in
closed
session.
If
that
was
the
council's
pleasure,
you
don't
have
the
obligation
to
do
that.
You
could
certainly
pick
up
where
you
left
off
next
time,
but
you
have
that
opportunity.
I
also
wanted
to
note
for
the
record
I
failed
to
note
for
the
record
that
dr.
Reddy
recused
himself
during
our
discussion
of
the
lockwood
litigation
in
closed
session
when
we
convened
earlier
this
afternoon,
hey.
D
Thank
you.
Next
item
public
comment
on
agenda
items.
This
time
has
been
set
aside
for
members
of
the
public
to
address
the
City
Council
on
items
of
general
interest
within
the
subject
matter:
jurisdiction
of
the
city.
Although
the
City
Council
values
your
comments
pursuant
to
the
Brown
Act,
it
generally
could
not
take
any
action
on
items
not
listed
on
the
posted
agenda.
Two
minutes
will
be
a
sign
of
each
speaker.
Do
we
have
anyone
who
wishes
to
speak
up?
No
speaker
cards
going
going
gone?
Okay.
D
H
H
D
Now
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
these
meetings
are
throughout
the
city.
Are
those
those
will
not
be
posted
city
council
meeting?
So
the
subcommittee
correct
I
just
want
a
definitive
answer
from
the
city
attorney.
If
those
of
us
who
are
not
on
the
subcommittee
would
like
to
go
and
sit
in
the
back
row
and
not
say
anything,
can
we
go
to
those
meetings
and
listen.
H
H
Thank
you
and
the
only
other
date
question
I
have
is,
despite
best
efforts
to
do
the
two
reviews,
the
council's
responsible
for
which
is
city
manager
and
the
city
attorney
and
trying
to
start
today
at
3
o'clock.
We
have
to
set
it
on
a
separate
day.
So
can
that
just
get
scheduled
and
then
publicly
noticed?
We
don't
need
to
come
up
with
a
schedule
now
for
it,
but
email
out
some
possible
dates.
It
might
be
easier
for
folks
unless
people
want
to
do
it
now
and
try
and
come
up
with
something.
No,
ok,
ok,
because.
H
C
The
regular
meeting
on
September
the
20th
Thursday,
because
we're
still
having
a
meeting
on
the
night,
no.
