You

Would

a
roll
call,
please
councilmember
holstege.
B

A
A
The
City
Council
at
this
time,
we'll
discuss
the
order
of
the
agenda,
may
amend
the
order,
add
urgency,
items,
note,
abstentions
or
no
votes
on
consent,
calendar
items
and
request
consent,
calendar
items
be
removed
for
discussion.
I
would
like
to
entertain
a
motion
for
acceptance
of
the
agenda.
Are
there
any
items
any
council
member
would
like
removed
from
the
consent
calendar
for
a
separate
discussion,
and/or
vote
and
C
attorney?
Yes,.
D
Mr.
mayor,
in
your
yellow
folder,
you
have
a
staff
report
prepared
by
city
clerk
mejia,
advising
you
that
your
staff
would
like
you
to
add
an
open
session
item
to
your
agenda
this
evening,
I
suppose
it's
designated
as
new
business.
That's
what
it
is!
You
have
a
subcommittee
that
interviewed
applicants
for
positions
that
are
open
on
your
administrative
appeals
board
and
your
City
Attorney's
Office
City
Clerk's
office,
feel
these
are
important
positions
to
fill.
D
There
is
a
little
bit
of
a
backlog
regarding
appeals,
we're
urging
you
to
find
that
it's
an
urgent
matter
of
concern
for
the
city,
and
certainly
the
city
couldn't
have
known
about
these
individuals
being
appointed
prior
to
the
time
of
this
report
because
they
hadn't
yet
been
interviewed.
So
this
came
to
the
attention
of
staff
after
the
posting
of
the
agenda,
and
it
is
an
urgent
matter
of
concern
per
the
one-page
staff
report.
D
A
Let's
just
a
made
in
a
second
can't:
we
used
to
avoid
those.
Oh
we're,
gonna
do
okay,
okay,.
A
A
A
D
You
mr.
mayor
members
of
the
council,
regarding
the
existing
litigation
items
we
covered
all
but
the
Lockwood
versus
city
of
Palm
Springs
matter.
Regarding
the
items
of
anticipated
litigation,
we
covered
a
total
of
three
out
of
the
five
matters
that
have
been
noticed.
Regarding
the
initiation
of
litigation.
D
We
covered
a
total
of
two
of
the
matters,
we're
going
to
be
a
journey
back
into
closed
session
for
a
third
out
of
the
four
that
were
noticed.
The
council
did
have
discussion
regarding
my
evaluation
and
the
council
did
have
discussion
regarding
the
chaulk
real
property
item.
There
was
inadequate
time
to
address
the
Palm
Springs
Unified
School
District
property.
The
council
did
confer
with
its
labor
negotiator
as
noticed
per
the
agenda.
There
was
no
reportable
action
taken
on
any
matter
considered
this
evening
in
closed
session,
and
that
concludes
my
report.
A
We
will
now
move
to
public
testimony.
Public
testimony
is
for
non
lives.
Portion
of
public
testimony
is
for
non
public
hearing
agenda
items.
Only
the
time
has
been
set
aside
for
members
of
the
public
to
address
the
City
Council
only
on
agenda
items.
Two
minutes
will
be
assigned
to
each
speaker
and
you
were
asked
to
begin
your
time
by
telling
us
what
agenda
item
or
items
you
are
speaking
about
and
remind
testimony
on
non
four
subjects
not
on
tonight's
agenda.
Both
will
be
addressed
later
in
the
meeting,
so
speakers
we
have
one
up
so
far.
A
G
This
art
miss,
of
course,
is
all
about
preserving
the
future
Palm
Springs
and
its
international
reputation
or
are
in
mobile
resources
that
include
not
only
mid-century
but
many
other
styles
of
architecture
such
as
Spanish
Revival,
Italian,
Renaissance,
Adobe,
an
English
cottage.
These
resources
provide
an
opportunity
for
to
modernism
weeks,
which
has
garnered
international
recognition
and
economic
viability
for
our
hospitality,
industry
and
businesses,
as
well
as
a
great
sub
brand
for
PS
without
the
inventory.
These
events,
of
course,
would
not
be
possible.
The
council's
input,
through
the
lengthy
vetting
process,
is
greatly
appreciated.
G
It
really
was,
as
we've
ended,
up
with
a
more
comprehensive
partners
revision
that
I
think
now
serves
both
the
citizens
and
the
industries
of
Palm
Springs,
quite
well
just
thinks
Palm
Springs
of
only
50,000
has
earned
the
reputation
as
the
modernism
capital
of
the
world
I'm,
confident
that
your
collective
decision
will
ensure
a
bright
future
in
this
regard.
Thank
you
very
much.
Thank.
B
A
A
A
So
with
our
deepest
condolences
of
that
loss,
and
also
just
two
days
ago,
a
close
friend
of
many
people
in
this
city
and
a
living
legend,
Kaye,
Ballard,
passed
away
and
we'll
have
more
to
say
on
that
later.
But
tonight
someone
who
is
an
it
was
really
a
legend
of
Broadway
and
motion
pictures,
and
so
many
of
the
things
miss
Carol,
Channing,
also
passed
away
and
miss
Channing
was
very
much
involved
in
the
city
of
Palm
Springs
and
she
was
did
a
lot
of
interactions.
A
They
brought
this
slide
up
and
didn't
tell
me
about
it,
but
the
rebirth
of
an
icon.
I
know
the
converge.
Ella
Repertory
Theatre
is
attempting
to
raise
enough
money
to
name
that
theater
after
her
I
think
they
have
about
three
million
dollars
to
go,
but
wishing
her
the
best
of
luck
on
that
it
would
be
a
great.
It
would
be
something
really
wonderful
for
her
memory.
Okay,
the
next
item
on
the
presentations
is,
we
have
a
presentation
tonight
on
the
Salton
Sea
by
Brian
estan
day,
who
is
the
deputy
county
executive
officer.
So
mr.
I
All
right
good
evening,
mr.
mayor
councilmembers,
mr.
Reddy
good,
to
see
you
I,
don't
have
a
presentation.
I'm,
just
gonna,
give
you
a
quick
update
from
where
we
are
right
now,
I'm
going
to
tell
you
where
we
are
and
then
our
next
step
so
right
now
as
the
county,
we're
negotiating
with
the
state
to
implement
what
we
call.
What
we
envision,
the
North
Lake
of
the
sea
and
the
state
has
some
different
versions
and
visions
of
the
North
Lake
so
supervisor.
I
President
I
met
with
the
natural
resource
department,
some
members
of
the
department
Water
Resources
last
week
to
try
and
work
through
why
there
are
different
versions,
and
can
we
get
on
the
same
page
and
hopefully
we'll
be
accomplishing
that
soon
it
just
the
the
state?
Has
they
come
out
with
versions
that
are
smaller
than
the
lake
that
we
want?
They'll
have
like
iterations
that
are
one-third
or
one-quarter
the
size
where
we
want
the
whole
lake
in
Riverside
County
to
be
usable.
I
So,
no
matter
where
you
step
down
walk
into
the
lake
from
wherever
you
are
in
the
shoreline,
you'll
be
in
a
usable,
healthy
body
of
water.
So
that
is
our
goal,
so
once
we
get
on
the
same
page
with
the
state,
the
next
process
will
be
paying
for
it
and
so
right
now
the
state
does
have
money.
They
have
bond
money
that
was
just
passed
in
June
and
two
previous
bonds
that
had
dedicated
money
to
the
seed.
I
So
there's
over
450
million
dollars,
saying
they're
dedicated
to
sea,
so
that
that'll
be
our
next
step,
say:
okay,
how
are
we
going
to
pay
for
this?
What
portion
will
Riverside
County
get
of
those
monies
that
are
available
and
then
whatever
is
left
the
Delta
to
pay
for
that
more
or
less
a
berm?
That's
going
to
be
built,
the
Board
of
Supervisors
in
Riverside
County
will
have
to
decide.
We
will
pay
for
the
remainder
of
that
or
not.
I
A
Any
questions
for
mr.
Gaston
day:
okay,
Thank
You
Bryan.
Thank
you
for
being
here.
Our
next
item
is
the
plaza
theater
community
forum.
Oh
there's
that'sthat's
the
slide
that
came
up.
Okay,
I've
just
read
that
Waldo
need
get
new
glasses,
Saturday,
councilmember,
Roberts
and
I
will
be
at
the
Plaza
theater
at
10:30
and
jr..
You
want
to
give
some
details
on
that.
F
F
So
Saturday
morning,
at
10:30,
we're
gonna
have
a
great
presentation,
we're
also
gonna,
be
poppin
fresh
movie
popcorn
and
having
soda
for
people
to
come
and
have
that
movie
time
experience
in
the
original
theater.
So
it's
a
rare
time
that
the
theater
will
be
open
to
the
public,
and
we
want
you
to
come
in
along
with
the
press
and
give
us
your
ideas
and
thoughts
where
we
really
need
the
community's
help
on
this
one,
and
the
mayor
and
I
will
be
hosting
this
and.
H
I
think
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
members
of
council,
this
is
actually
a
very
exciting,
exciting
thing
for
Palm
Springs.
We're
just
wanted
to
reiterate
that
we
passed
a
two
million
passenger
mark
for
our
Airport
and
it's
it's
a
it's
a
milestone,
and
we,
this
is
a
third
straight
year
that
we've
broken
our
records,
so
the
airport
continues
to
grow.
Also
just
want
to
remind
everyone
that
we
have
over
eleven
airlines
now
I
think
we're
going
34
cities
directly
and
that
wasn't
always
the
case.
This
is
really
exciting.
H
A
big
part
of
this
is
due
to
the
the
airline
incentive
program
that
the
council
had
approved
and
I
would
just
note.
There
was
a
time
not
too
long
ago
when
we
used
to
have
to
pay
American,
Airlines,
200
thousand
dollars
just
to
have
one
summer
flight
to
Dallas,
so
we've
come
a
long
way
and
I
think
it.
It
really
really
reflects
well
of
the
work
that
you've
done
at
the
airport,
an
investment
over
the
last
several
years,
Thank
You
mayor.
Thank
you.
G
A
E
E
Last
week,
go
along
with
councilmember
holstege
I
was
in
Sacramento
for
League
of
California
cities
policy
committee.
We
heard
presentation
from
the
cabinet
secretary
and
a
mat
to
Moses
I
hope
I
got
the
pronounce
correctly
and
from
transportation
secretary
Brian
anis.
There
has
been
a
tremendous
amount
of
conversations
since
the,
but
the
governor
announced
his
budget
plans
in
his
housing
plans
regarding
the
potential
for
cities
that
do
not
meet
their
housing
goals
to
lose
some
of
their
transportation
funding.
E
There
is
a
lot
of
blue-sky
conversation
that
somehow
or
another
transportation
funding
should
be
linked
to
reaching
housing
goals,
but
there
is
absolutely
no
plans
that
have
been
presented
in
terms
of
how
to
execute
that,
and,
as
one
can
imagine,
cities
across
the
state
are
extremely
concerned
and
very
vigilant
in
making
known
to
the
administration
that
a
reduction
in
housing
funding
linked
to
transportation
are
linked
to
housing.
Not
being
achieved
is
something
that
would
be
very
problematic.
E
Some
specific
examples
is
that
in
many
communities
across
the
state
they
are
doing
everything
they
possibly
can
to
make
housing
more
amenable
in
their
community
and
more
amenable
to
developers,
and
the
developers
are
just
simply
not
coming
and
to
penalize
the
city
that
is
doing
everything
it
can
would
not
be
a
responsible
policy,
so
we
will
see
where
this
could
actually
develops,
but
I
would
encourage
all
of
us
to
stay
aware
of
the
issue.
I
would
also
don't
overreact
to
the
headlines.
We
have
not
seen
any
policies.
Thank
you.
That's.
C
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
since
the
last
council
meeting
council
member
Middleton
and
the
mayor,
pro-tem
Coors
and
I
attended
the
buzz
bus,
ribbon-cutting
and
re
lunch.
So
we
attended
that
with
Sunline.
Thank
you
to
councilmember
Middleton
for
her
leadership
as
the
liaison
to
son
line
and
really
saving
the
buzz
and
making
that
happen
for
our
residents.
I
think
it's
a
huge
win
for
our
residents
and
tourists
alike,
and
really
proud
to
have
that
service
rerunning
as
a
quality
of
life
investment
for
our
city.
C
So
thank
you
to
everyone
who
attended
that
it
was
a
really
fun
event.
There
were
buzz
cupcakes
and
we
got
to
ride
the
inaugural
ride
the
second
inaugural
ride.
So
we
hope
that
that
will
continue.
Please
ride
the
buzz
bus.
That's
what's
really
important.
Now
is
using
that
service.
If
you
want
it
to
continue,
son
line
is
tracking
the
numbers
to
see
if
the
ridership
will
be
there
for
the
two
years
that
the
city
is
funding
it.
So,
if
you
want
to
see
it
continue,
please
use
the
buzz
bus.
C
I
attended,
see
bag,
Coachella,
Valley,
Association
of
Governments
homelessness
committee.
We
had
a
really
important
meeting.
Some
people
from
Palm
Springs,
where
they're
in
attendance
at
Palm,
Desert
City
Hall,
and
we
got
the
report
from
the
consultant
that
we
engage
that
does
her
health
care
district
engaged
to
do
a
full
analysis
of
the
data
on
homelessness
in
our
city
and
in
the
region
and
to
provide
some
best
practices
and
to
provide
some
recommendations
about
what
we
should
be
doing.
So
it's
a
really
important
report.
C
I
asked
city
staff
to
attach
it
to
our
next
agenda,
so
the
full
council
and
the
full
public
will
have
access.
Basically,
some
of
the
takeaways
is
that
this
the
region,
the
Coachella
Valley,
has
actually
more
emergency
shelter
beds
than
we
have
homeless
population
compared
to
the
City
of
Riverside,
the
county
of
Riverside.
So
we
have
more
beds
than
our
proportion
of
homeless,
population
and
population
as
a
whole.
C
So
some
of
her
recommendations
were
instead
of
investing
in
more
shelter,
space
and
I
get
a
lot
of
emails
every
week
asking
to
build
a
new
West,
Valley
shelter,
actually
her
recommendations.
We
need
permanent,
supportive
housing
housings
the
only
solution
to
homelessness,
and
we
really
need
to
be
investing
in
in
housing.
For
all,
as
opposed
to
temporary
shelter,
she
also
had
some
recommendations
about
outreach.
Actually,
outreach
is
less
effective
than
you
would
imagine.
C
Permanent
housing
is
for
getting
people
permanently
off
the
streets,
and
so
anyway,
I
will
attach
that
report
to
the
next
city
council
meeting.
The
city
is
holding
our
quarterly
homelessness
task
force
meeting
tomorrow
at
4
p.m.
at
the
fire
training
center,
that's
3,000,
East,
alejo
Road,
and
so
for.
Anyone
who
wants
to
learn
more
about
that
report.
The
desert
health
care
district
and
sivak
will
be
there
please
attend.
If
you
want
to
know
more
about
what
we're
doing
on
homelessness,
we
will
report
it
then,
but
for
me
it's
been
really
important
to
wait.
C
We
worked
with
this
consultant
for
nearly
a
you're
six
months
or
so
because
we
need
to
know
the
data
before
we're
investing
resources
and
we
need
to
work
as
a
region,
because
it's
a
regional
issue
and
we
need
to
work
together
with
our
community
partners
on
homelessness.
We
are
also
having
our
point
in
time.
Count.
That's
coming
up
next
Tuesday,
the
29th
Brighton
early
at
5:30
in
the
morning
5:30
to
9:30.
C
That's
an
incredibly
important
moment
for
the
city,
because
we're
going
to
be
counting
the
people
who
are
living
on
our
streets
and
that
number
gets
us
funding
to
address
homelessness.
So
we
want.
We
still
need
volunteers,
we're
still
looking
for
volunteers.
So
if
you
want
to
volunteer,
please
contact
the
city.
You
have
to
do
a
mandatory
training
session,
which
is
two
hours
we
were
holding
one
tomorrow.
So
please
contact
me
or
the
city.
C
If
you
want
more
information
about
that,
I
also
attended
in
Sacramento
the
League
of
California
cities
policy
committee
so
is
appointed
to
the
Housing
Community
and
Economic
Development
Committee,
and
the
government,
transparency
and
Labor
Relations
committees.
So
for
housing
we
talked
about
SB
50,
which
is
Scott
weiners
bill
on
developing
housing
around
transit.
We
talked
about
not
just
having
transit,
oriented
projects
and
development
because
we
don't
have
much
transit
here
in
our
city.
I
think
it
would
be.
C
Our
one
Amtrak
station
would
have
multi-story
housing
along
that,
so
that
doesn't
quite
work
for
the
whole
state.
So
we're
working
on
that
and
then
for
the
government,
governance
and
transparency
board.
We
talked
about
opening
up
the
Brown
Act
and
talking
about
using
so
allowing
the
Brown
Act
to
clearly
apply
to
social
media
and
how
elected
officials
are
using
social
media
and
kind
of
a
setting.
Some
clear
rules
about
that.
C
This
is
a
ordinance
related
to
plastic,
waste
and
straw
that
we've
talked
about
so
hopefully
that
can
come
forward
as
the
Commission
recommendation
and
then
councilmember
Middleton
brought
up
a
few
meetings
ago
now,
I
think
about
a
resolution
about
the
government
shutdown,
and
you
said
that
maybe
not
now
it
was
just
the
first
few
days,
I
think
of
the
shutdown,
but
if
it
continued
longer,
we
should
consider
doing
a
resolution.
So
with
your
leadership,
I
would
like
to
move
that
we
bring
forward
a
resolution
against
the
government
shutdown
at
the
next
meeting.
C
It's
important
because
we
are
trying
to
run.
We
were
running
our
airport.
I
know.
Real
estate
agents
are
impacted
because
of
the
the
federal
government
requirements
for
some
of
the
tribal
land
properties.
It
really
is
affecting
the
governance
of
our
city
at
this
point,
so
hopefully
we
can
take
some
action
and
do
what
we
can
to
protect
our
city
and
our
workers.
I.
C
A
We
talked
about
what
he
and
I
have
done
together
over
the
past
38
years
and
the
fact
that
we're
both
facing
turning
70
years
old
this
year
and
the
jux
of
the
discussion
was
that
we
would
try
and
decide
all
the
things
we
wouldn't
do
in
the
next
five
to
ten
years
and
jointly.
We
made
the
decision
that,
because
of
all
the
things
we
want
to
do,
that,
I
would
not
be
seeking
a
seat
on
the
new
City
Council
when
the
elections
come
up
in
November
I.
A
A
So
people
keep
asking
me
or
you're
gonna
run
again
or
you
run
again
and
I
keep
saying
I
don't
know,
but
I
do
know,
and
so
it
keeps
saying
I
don't
know
is
not
really
that
the
truth
so
I
just
like
to
say
it's
been
a
I,
really
look
forward
to
the
next
ten
months
and
continuing
to
serve
as
I
have
for
the
past
three
years,
the
residents
of
Palm
Springs
to
the
very
best
of
my
ability
and
to
work
with
the
City
Council
to
accomplish
the
goals
we've
set
out
for
herself.
Okay.
Thank
you.
A
A
A
F
F
J
You,
these
are
all
additional
items
requested
by
the
police
department
that
were
not
in
part
of
the
original
bid,
and
so
is
what
it
was
at
the
direction
and
reviewed
by
the
police
department.
So
this
wasn't
any
additional
work
that
was
missing
from
the
plans,
but
it
was
at
our
request
that
they
do
this
work
and
they
did
that
without
any
extension
of
time,
because
I
their
time
ran
out
a
long
time
ago.
So
that.
A
A
E
This
will
be
very
quick,
the
last
time
that
there
was
levy
clean
up
after
it
was
over.
I
received
a
few
phone
calls
from
residents
who
live
along
the
wash
that
the
manner
in
which
it
was
John
destroyed
a
number
of
bird
and
wildlife
habitats.
So
I
would
like
to
ask
that
certainly
we
need
to
move
forward
with
this,
but
that
we
asked,
after
work
with
the
county,
to
ensure
that
every
precaution
that
can
be
taken
to
preserve
bird
and
wildlife
habitat
is
is
done
so.

council
member
that
was

I'm.
Sorry,
that's.
G
E
Yeah
I'll
be
very
fast
on
this.
Mr.
Brahn
told
us
during
the
hearings
on
this
that
he
didn't
have
that.
He
did
in
fact
have
financing
on
this
project
and
I
simply
believe.
We
should
receive
confirmation
from
him
that
he
does
have
the
financing
and
that's
something
that
he
can
provide
at
a
later
date
to
staff.
C
Thank
you
and
I
think
that
there
were
a
few
representations,
some
in
public
at
that
meeting,
one
being
prevailing
wage
for
the
project
moving
forward
if
he
uses
the
t
OT
program,
so
we
might
want
to
send
that
back
to
staff
to
get
some
of
those
agreements.
That's
all
in
writing
there
that
that
was
added.
That
is.
A
A
B
C
You
mr.
mayor
so
I,
just
in
looking
at
this
I
asked
this
at
the
last
reading.
I
couldn't
tell
because
there
weren't
track
changes.
So
I
was
given
the
representation
that
Jim
priest.
Our
attorney
had
looked
at
this
and
made
all
of
the
changes
on
the
inland
counties.
Legal
services
was
asking
about
because
they
sent
a
letter
recommending
some
changes
to
the
ordinance.
So
again,
I
don't
see
track
changes
here,
so
I
want
to
make
sure
that
all
of
those
are,
and
all
of
those
recommendations
are
included
here
in
this
ordinance.
Yes,.
G
A
You
that
concludes
our
consent-
calendar
items
that
were
pulled
next
item.
We
have
no
public
hearings
and
three
is
legislative.
Three,
a
reintroduction
of
an
ordinance
amending
chapter
5.26
of
the
Palm
Springs
Municipal
Code,
reestablishing
the
hotel
operations
incentive
program
staff
report.
Please.
L
Reintroduce
an
ordinance
to
we
established
a
hotel
operations
incentive
program
on
December
19th.
This
item
was
brought
to
you
and
there
are
a
number
of
comments
and
requests
from
the
council
which
have
been
implemented
specifically
the
addition
of
prevailing
wages
and
indemnification
clause,
conformance
with
five-30
a3
of
the
government
code,
which
requires
that
for
economic
incentives,
a
public
hearing
be
held
if,
if
the
amount
of
the
incentive
is
over
$100,000
a
requirement
for
the
Tod
calculation
to
commence
immediately,
that
has
been
included
and
an
evaluation
of
the
program
effectiveness
after
four
years.
L
Other
provisions
that
were
added
or
amended
were
that
hotel
operators
are
not
able
to
participate
in
the
program
if
they
are
already
in
a
hotel
operations.
Covenant
program,
we
do
have
an
existing
program.
That's
ongoing
the
definition
of
a
phase
2
renovation
project
had
been
revised
to
allow
hotels
to
cease
operations
if
needed
during
their
construction.
L
So
there
was
some
discussion
about
that
amongst
staff
as
to
how
to
approach
that
the
rented
the
renovate
definition
of
a
renovation
hotel
would
now
require
that
the
hotel
had
been
in
operations
for
the
previous
five
years
before
a
hotel
operations.
Incentive
program
is,
is
approved
for
that.
In
that
case,
one
small
item
and
I
haven't
had
a
chance
to
discuss
this
with
the
city
attorney,
but
as
it
is
drafted
right
now,
we
have
payments
going
to
hotel
operators
on
a
monthly
basis.
We
actually
do
it
in
a
different.
E
J,
thank
you
I'm
on
page
11,
in
the
section
regarding
prevailing
wage
and
I
just
want
to
make
certain
that
I
understand
correctly.
In
the
past,
we
have
had
prevailing
wage
provisions
that
require
that
individuals
in
firms
who
are
participating
comply
with
state
law.
In
this
we
are
saying
you
must
pay
prevailing
wage.
Is
that
correct?
That's
correct.
D
You
yes,
lots
of
counsel
direction
from
the
Subcommittee
implemented
here,
and
we
really
put
on
a
belt
and
suspenders
with
respect
to
prevailing
wage.
You
have
not
only
the
I
earn
mint
of
prevailing
wage,
but
you
have
the
safe
harbor
language
that
was
specifically
recommended
by
our
labor
and
employment
experts.
Work
with
us
as
Special
Counsel,
so
you've
got
you've,
got
everything
you
need
to
ensure
that
any
developer,
who's
availing
themselves
of
this
program
will
pay
prevailing
wage
and
will
indemnify
the
city
with
respect
to
any
dereliction
of
that
duty.
D
F
Thank
You
Mara
I
just
want
to
clarify
for
the
public
that
this
hotel
incentive
program
is
not
to
be
confused
with
the
new
hotel
incentive
program
which
we
sunsetted
I
think
two
years
ago,
and
that
this
one
only
relates
to
existing
hotels
to
encourage
the
existing
and
smaller
hotels
to
upgrade
their
hotels
and
hotel
rooms
stock,
and
that's
all
I
needed
to
say.
Okay.
A
C
Thank
You
mr.
mayor,
so
I
just
have
a
few
questions
of
staff
about
some
of
the
changes
that
were
made
in
this
version.
So
one
is
that
this
version
doesn't
allow
phasing
of
construction
right.
So
can
you
explain
a
bit
about
the
thinking
about
allowing
phasing
of
construction
versus
and
requiring
or
versus,
requiring
all
the
construction
to
be
done
at
once?.
D
The
city
has
had
challenges
in
the
past
on
occasion
when
we've
worked
with
hotel
projects
and
other
types
of
projects
with
pauses
in
work,
that's
been
that
has
been
taking
place,
these
V
continuity
and
nuisance
conditions
that
can
arise.
So
the
thought
the
part
of
staff
was.
We
didn't
want
to
allow
phasing
here
as
to
the
implementation
of
the
improvements
to
the
rooms
into
the
common
areas
to
create
those
sorts
conditions,
that's
not
a
condition
that
is
essential
on
any
level.
D
C
So
to
me,
I
think
it's
up
to
the
hoteliers
to
decide
if
they
want
to
have
phasing
what
would
work
with
their
operation.
So
I
would
like
to
remove
the
language
about
not
allowing
phasing.
I
can
pull
it.
So
that's
on
page
7,
it's
in
the
definitions,
phase,
2
renovation
project
means
a
hotel
constructed
by
a
renovation
hotel
without
phasing.
So
I
would
ask
that
the
council
consider
removing
that
language
and
any
other
references
to
the
phasing
requirement.
C
Had
a
lot
of
issues
with
stopping
and
starting
of
these
I
mean
these
are
not
huge
projects,
but
some
of
them
could
be
larger
investments.
It
would
make
sense
to
me
that
they
might
want
to
do
it
phased,
especially
if
their
continuing
operations
do.
You
have
any
other
comments.
Marcus
I
see
you
thinking.
H
C
Me
I
think
that
they
already
have
incentive
to
complete
it.
We
have
we're
requiring
it
to
be
completed
within
12
months.
I
think
it
should
be
up
to
the
operator.
Should
we
shouldn't
ban
phasing
out
right
if
it
would
work
for
a
project,
we
want
to
incentivize
small
hotels,
hotels
to
use
this
program.
Obviously,.
C
Sounds
will
agree
and
then
my
other
comment
is
on
the
definition
of
construction
and
how
we're
defining
that
and
considering
that,
so
there's
a
lot
of
language
about
renovation
and
construction.
So
some
questions
that
were
raised
were
if
they
wanted
to
invest
in
new
furniture
or
another
investment
into
their
hotel,
that
wasn't,
construction
or
maybe
wouldn't
be
defined
as
a
renovation.
C
So
let
me
I
can
pull
it
so,
for
example,
on
page
7
in
that
definition
that
I
read
earlier
the
last
paragraph.
At
the
end
it
says:
phase
2
renovation
project
means
a
hotel
improvement
project
constructed
by
a
renovation
hotel
and
then
there's
just
some
other
references
to
construction.
So
in
my
thinking
and
talking
to
people
in
the
community,
you
know
I
think
maybe
we
would
just
want
to
incentivize
investments
into
the
hotel
if
they're
gonna
spend
that
money
on
different
renovation
that
isn't
construction.
One
concern.
H
C
F
F
It
would
there'd
have
to
be
some
clear
definitions
in
some
proof,
so
that
we're
not
funding
cars
and
food
for
restaurants
and
toilet
paper,
but
actual
improvements,
so
I
would
want.
I
would
want
staffs
recommendations
on
how
to
refine
and
define
this
very
clearly,
and
maybe
it's
just
a
list
of
things
that
would
be
covered
under
the
incentive
program
and
a
list
of
things.
Perhaps
that
are
not
covered,
but
I
agree
with
your
suggestions
is.
D
Do
there's
there's
a
requirement
in
this
ordinance
as
its
presented
here
that
at
the
front
end
in
the
application
that
there
be
some
explanation
by
the
applicant
hotel
operator
as
to
what's
actually
happening
and
that
costs
are
actually
projected
and,
furthermore,
on
the
tail
end
that
no
cost
would
be
paid
back
in
the
context
of
the
incentive
that's
not
approved.
Now
we
could
beef
up
that
language.
D
We
could
add
language
there
that
specifies
the
types
of
costs
and
expenditures
that
that
will
be
improved,
I,
suppose
it's,
it's
implied,
it's
implicit,
that
it
would
be
fixtures
and
things
that
are
hardwired,
so
to
speak
to
the
property,
but
we
can.
We
can
certainly
add
some
language
there.
I
I
have
the
direction
that
you're
giving
and
we
can
implement
that
or.
F
G
D
Wouldn't
want
us,
I
wouldn't
want
to
spell
it
out
in
so
much
detail
that
staff
didn't
have
some
discretion,
but
I
I
do
understand
the
direction
you're.
Giving
so
we'll
include.
Landscaping
will
include
fixtures
that
are
permanently
attached
and
will
incorporate
those
in
definitions
where
they're
appropriate,
also
on
the
cost
recovery.
I
think
you
know
that
when,
when
staff
is
approving
that
no
no
approval
will
be
issued
unless
it's
asked
to
the
appropriate
expenditures
and.
F
Then
I
would
even
go
as
far
as
to
say.
We
need
to
be
careful
with
even
attached
fixtures,
because
would
we
be
against
them
refurnishing
rooms
or
refurnishing
lobbies,
and
things
like
that.
So
again,
it's
not
so
much
about
what's
attached,
it's
just
more
things
about
specifically
upgrading
the
hotel
rather
than
paying
electric
bills
or
buying
food
or
paying
employees.
So
it
would
have
to
be
things
that
somehow
really
very
specifically
do
the
upgrade
of
the
hotel
or
its
rooms
or
its
public
spaces.
F
L
F
G
D
Disconnect
I
think
the
city
manager's
question
I,
know
correct
me:
if
I'm
wrong
is
going
to
that
level
of
equipment
that
could
actually
be
removed
from
the
facility
quite
easily
save
it
us
one
of
our
hotel.
Yrs
has
two
properties:
they
could
buy
a
piece
of
equipment
that
did
something
very
important
to
the
new
facility
and
justify
it
if
they
wished
you're
comfortable
with
that.
If
I
hear
you
whether
it
can
be
removed
or
not,
isn't
isn't
of
no
moment
so.
C
For
us
we're
not
paying
for
it,
it's
a
Tod
rebate
program
right,
so
they
pay
for
it
and
then,
if
their
t
OT
increases,
we
can
think
about
it
out
loud
a
bit.
But
if
their
t
OT
increases,
then
they
get
that
rebate,
and
so,
if
they
buy
new
furniture
and
then
they
remove
it
and
they're
2t
doesn't
increase
and
we
even
adjusted
this
one
to
adjust
for
inflation.
Unlike
before
so
you
know
anything
if
they
take
it
away,
then
that's
something
that
they
invested
in
their
hotel
and
they
took
away.
It's
not
anything.
F
We
can
ask
for
photographs
if
it's
things
like
that,
where
we
would
ask
for
written
descriptions
of
what
they
plan
to
do,
the
hotels
and,
frankly,
we
should
go
back
to
check
I
think
that
we
need
some
some
ways
to
do
that,
and
perhaps
once
the
works
complete,
we
should
go
back
to
make
sure
that
they
spent
the
money
the
way
they
said
they
did,
or
at
least
let
them
know
that
we
may
do
that
to
ensure
that
the
program
is
being
used
properly.
It.
E
Seems
what
you're
getting
at
is
an
issue
of.
How
do
we
protect
ourselves
against
someone
who
will
claim
I'm
buying
this
furniture
for
hotel
X,
when,
in
fact,
they
intend
to
use
it
for
some
other
purpose?
I
would
hope
that
we
would
have
within
the
contract
some
language
that
would
ensure
that
this
is
being
transacted
in
good
faith.
H
And
we
have
and
as
I
think
back
now
through
it
some
of
the
hotels,
some
of
the
businesses.
You
know
the
the
carpet
bar
fixtures
bar
things
of
that
were
a
little
more
fixture
related,
but
but
some
of
the
hotels
that,
if
I
recall
they
did
include
it,
did
include
some
some
of
the
furniture
for
the
lobby
which
helped
with
the
overall
so
I
understand
what
you're
saying
we
can
put
some
language
in
there
and-
and
we
clearly
do
have
inspections
before
we
proceed
with
with
the
actual
final
final
to
you,
with
the.
C
A
A
D
E
Mr.
mayor
yeah,
I'll
go
first
councilmember,
holsters
and
I
certainly
very
much
appreciated
the
feedback
that
we
received
from
everyone.
What
we
tried
to
do
in
this
document
is
to
simplify
it
considerably,
we've
taken
it
from
I
believe
11
and
a
half
pages
down
to
about
five
and
a
half
six
pages.
We
eliminated
a
lot
of
examples.
We
tried
to
be
very
clear
in
terms
of
some
specifics.
E
When
there
are
constituent
issues
in
constituent
complaints,
because
no
Council
member
can
individually
be
responsible
for
reaching
a
resolution
regarding
issues
that
must
be
handled
by
staff,
yet
we
play
a
fundamental
and
critical
role
in
ensuring
that
that
communication
is
effective
between
people
within
our
community
in
the
city,
and
so
we
we
very
much
wanted
to
make
clear
council
members
can't
just
simply
say
don't
talk
to
me.
You
need
to
talk
to
someone
from
the
staff
we
have.
We
wanted
to
to
be
clear
that
we
have
that
responsibility.
E
We
tried
to
make
some
changes
in
terms
of
anticipating
differences
as
we
move
to
a
district
structure,
so
in
section
7.1
we
state
every
effort
should
be
made
by
each
council
member
to
direct
constituent
service
questions
and
concerns
to
the
council.
Member
elected
from
that
district
in
which
the
resident
or
the
business
is
there
and
that's
not
an
absolute
bar
on
anyone
else
being
involved.
We
know
that
this
is
small
town
with.
E
Individuals
who
get
to
know
one
another
but
trying
to
make
it
certainly
more
easy.
There
was
one
I
want
to
talk
about
two
issues
that
I
think
may
have
gotten
lost.
One
is
section
2.5,
Council
members
are
representing
the
city
on
regional
multi-agency
bodies
shall
vote
in
a
manner
consistent
with
council
direction,
our
policy
within
a
previously
articulated
city
policy
or
program,
and
that
certainly
has
been
something
we've
identified,
but
I
think
beyond
that.
E
The
majority
view
people
of
your
colleagues
on
the
council,
but
if
you
get
it
wrong
and
you
vote
for
the
blue
item
and
your
council
member
colleagues
said
how
could
you
have
voted
for
blue
everybody?
Knows
we
like
red
better
here,
then?
That's,
that's
something
that's
going
to
happen
and
you
move
on
and
learn
from
that
experience.
E
The
other
change
that
that
I.
Don't
think
that
across
that
I
wanted
to
raise
was
in
Section
four
point:
five,
where
it
says
council
members
shall
not
disclose
or
use
confidential
information
obtained
through
city
service
for
any
improper
purposes,
such
as
financial,
personal,
financial
gain
I,
don't
think
that
needs
to
be
qualified,
I
think
it.
We
should
strike
for
improper
purposes
and,
just
simply
say,
council
members
shall
not
use
or
disclose
confidential
information
obtained
through
city
service.
E
For
any
reason,
and
again,
this
is
something
that
is
another
example
of
Palm
Springs
trying
to
get
ahead
of
the
curve
and
I
hope
it
can
receive
supportive
of
all
of
our
colleagues.
West
Hollywood
was
an
example
that
was
used,
but
we
are
not
trying
to
create
West
Hollywood
here
were
simply
taking
advantage
of
some
work
that
they
had
done
previously.
E
F
Thank
You
mayor
I
just
want
to
compliment
you
both
and
thank
you
for
making
the
changes
that
you
made.
This
is
much
more
palatable
to
me
because
I
think
it's
much
more
realistic,
I
think
we
can
write
ourselves
into
a
corner
and
I
appreciate
that
you
softened
this
up.
I
only
have
one
concern
that
I
wanted
direct
to
dr.
Reddy
and,
of
course,
to
all
of
you.
F
F
Think
I
would
prefer
to
see
wording
along
those
lines
simply
so
that
counsel
is
not
terrified
to
ask
staff
to
to
look
into
something.
Obviously,
if
it's
something
the
staffs
uncomfortable
with
I'm
sure
the
their
protocol
always
has
been
that
they
would
speak
to
the
city
manager
and
dr..
If
you
could
weigh
in
on
that
yeah.
F
A
C
On
that
point,
may
I
interrupt
you
for
a
moment.
Thank
you.
I
had
noted
that
rule
as
well,
because
it
doesn't
exempt
or
accept
our
administrative
support,
which
I
believe
it
should,
because
we
do
have
an
administrative
assistant
who
I
retain
Lee,
give
direction
to,
and
so
I
don't
think
it
fits
into
this
rule,
but
I
believe
we
had
given
that
feedback
before
in
the
last.
At
the
last
meeting,
I.
H
I
think
I
think
the
catch-all
here
is,
or
or
in
accordance
with
the
protocol
established
by
the
city
manager
and
because
that
position
it
works
under
the
city
manager.
That
would
be
part
of
the
job
description
and
the
established
protocol.
So
that
would
be
the
the
exception
that
that's
basically
worded
in
here,
so
you
wouldn't
technically
have
to
change
anything.
We
would
reach
it
through
that
language.
C
H
D
H
F
C
D
A
I
appreciate
the
subcommittee
taking
the
comments
we
made
the
last
time
and
making
this
work
much
better
this
time
and
but
that
they
get
needed
for
all
of
us
to
discuss
it,
and
but
she
did
take
those
changes
and
make
them.
So.
Thank
you
very
much
and
and
customer
holstege
touched
on
this,
but
guidance
like
this
and
protocol
like
this
is
really
important
to
new
people
coming
on
to
the
council
and
we're
most
likely
going
to
have
new
people
coming
out
of
the
council.
I
know
even
we're
gonna
be
covering
later
this.
A
The
City
Council
of
procedures
for
City,
Council
meetings,
I
didn't
even
know
that
existed
till
like
three
months
into
might
and
my
term
and
then
I
said.
Oh,
it
was
a
guidance
for
this
law.
I
think
it's
very
important
that
we
have
these
and
make
and
the
staff
make
sure
that
if
L
other
council
members
make
sure
new
council
members
get
them
as
soon
as
they
come
on
board,
but
also
talking
about
the
the
multi
multi
agents
as
we
go
to
you
know,
I.
Thank
you.
A
It
happens
occasionally
and
there's
those
types
of
meetings
and
also
one
question
I'd
like
to
ask
on
section
4.2
or
talks
about
may
have
personal
council
members
may
have
personal
letterhead
for
use
in
their
day-to-day
performances,
their
duties.
It
can't
be
misleading
if
you're
writing
a
letter
on
a
personal
opinion
or
say
a
letter
of
reference
or
something.
If
it's
city
of
Palm
Springs
and
it's
got,
you
know,
you
know
councilmember
Jones
or
mayor
Smith
or
whatever
it
could
be
misleading,
but
we
actually
don't
have
a
letterhead.
A
We
don't
have
personal
letterhead
for
use
in
day-to-day
performance
of
our
duties.
Actually
I
think
I've
written
three
in
the
last
three
years,
but
on
occasions,
if
we
need
them
dr.
Reddy,
how
is?
Are
you
considering
printing
up
a
limited
amount
of
stationery
that
has
like
the
council,
members
name
large
and
then
underneath
it
council,
city
of
Palm,
Springs?
Well,.
H
I
think
I
think
the
the
it's
good
to
have
individual
council
member
stationery
and
stationery
that
lists
all
the
councilmembers.
So
if
you
have
the
flexibility
to
use
when
it's
just
that
the
councilmembers
on
their
own
opinion
on
an
issue
versus
its
endorsed
by
the
entire
city,
so
I
think
we
can
accommodate
that.
If.
A
It
says
city
of
Palm
Springs
above
it
well,
even
though
a
person
writes
their
personal
endorsement
or
opinion
on
it,
it
could
be
construed
as
the
city
of
Palm
Springs.
The
way
the
stationery
is
I'm.
Just
saying
this
for
point
two,
it's
I
think
this
covers
a
good
point,
may
have
personal
letterhead
for
use
in
day
to
day
performance
of
their
duties.
What
are
we
talking
about
here
on
personal
letterhead?
Well,.
H
I
think
that's,
it
would
be.
You
know,
you
know,
may
Mayor
Robert
moon,
mayor's
city
of
Palm,
Springs,
councilmember,
Middleton
company,
you
know
I,
think
that
is
enough,
doesn't
have
to
say
this
other
than
that
doesn't
say
official
city
of
Palm
Springs.
It's
just
your
title
and
what
you
are
I
think
that's
sufficient.
So.
A
H
G
C
I
can
comment
on
that
because
we
talked
about
that
as
a
subcommittee.
So
we
actually
it's
not
in
this,
but
we
had
talked
about.
Probably
only
city
staff
should
be
usually
sending
out
city
letterhead
documents,
because
it'll
be
following
an
action
by
the
by
the
board
by
the
City,
Council
and
then
city
staff
would
send
that
and
only
having
so
it's
here,
it
says:
City
Council
members
may
have
personal
letterhead,
but
I
think
we
had
actually
talked
about
only
having
letterhead
and
that's
what
you
see
in
any
legislative
body.
C
So
we
talked
about
getting
a
letter.
I
got
a
letter
from
Dianne
Feinstein
in
it
and
it
has
the
seal
and
it
might
have
you
know
the
legislative
body,
but
it
says
from
the
offices
of
Dianne
Feinstein
or
Rob
moon
or
whatever.
It
is
so
just
so
that
it's
clear
that
it's
speech
and
and
comments
from
the
individual,
because
without
authorization
from
the
full
City
Council,
we
can't
speak
on
behalf
of
the
the
city
or
the
City
Council
itself.
A
Questionnaire,
just
so,
we
are
in
agreement
on
this.
If
it's,
if
it's
a
lot
of
routine
letters,
the
ones
I
sign,
almost
almost
99%
of
them
are
letters
that
go
in
the
front
of
some
welcome
brochure
for
convention
or
say
neighborhoods
USA
or
the
Film,
Festival
or
or
something
like
that.
Should
that
be
city
of
Palm
Springs,
or
should
it
be
the
name
of
like
Robert,
L
moon,
mayor
city
of
Palm,
Springs.
H
E
Think
we're
good
I
think
we're
getting
very
close
and
we're
probably
there
and
to
me
the
critical
question
is:
are
you
expressing
a
personal
opinion
or
a
collective
opinion
and
those
collective
opinions
belong
on
full
city
letterhead?
The
individual
opinion
belongs
on
something
that
just
represents
yourself
and.
H
The
easy
bright-line
test
for
me-
and
this
is
actually
much
easier,
is
the
beautiful
thing
about
this
is
council
speaks
through
its
votes,
so
if
it's
voted
on
it
will
be
a
joint
anything
else.
You
know
it's
just
orbiter
dicta
right,
it's
just
it
doesn't
mean
anything
to
your
vote.
So
then
we'd
use
your
joint,
but
your
other
personal
letterhead
would
be,
for
you
know
your
your
personal
correspondence
and
opinions
I.
H
E
A
D
I'm,
taking
very
careful
notes,
but
I
want
to
point
out
that
the
language
in
this
to
councilmember
Roberts
comments
does
paint
you
into
the
box
of
doing
what
the
city
manager
said,
which
is
to
say
that.
Thank
you,
note
is
on
your
individual
letterhead,
it's
not
on
city
letterhead
per
se,
and
if
that's
okay
with
you,
then
that's
fine.
That's
what
the
policy
says
right
now.
That's.
C
H
E
A
Happen
often,
but
occasionally
the
council
passes
a
resolution
to
support
something
like
the
Friends
of
the
mountains.
We
did
a
thing
for
that
that
water
generation
thing
and
that's
goes
on
city
of
Palm
Springs,
because
we
vote
on
it
and
and
it's
passed
by
the
council.
That
would
be
different
instance.
Okay,.
C
Turn
I
just
interrupted
all
you.
Okay,
I
just
have
some
comments
and
suggestions,
so
rule
2.2,
that's
on
page
7.
It
says
when
making
public
utterances
council
members
shall
make
it
clear
whether
they're
authorized
to
speak
in
an
official
capacity
or
they're
sharing
their
own
personal
opinion.
I
would
like
to
see
that
say
when
making
public
utterances
or
writings
or
something
like
that.
I'm
thinking
about
I
think,
especially
in
social
media.
C
C
F
F
C
One
issue
that
we
had
talked
about
is
when
we
get
formal
requests
for
appearances
or
sort
for
events
or
for
policy
requests
that
those
get
forwarded
to
the
city
manager
or
the
full
or
the
City
Council.
So,
for
example,
one
things
that
we
frequently
get
is
someone
asks
me
to
ask
the
city
council
to
take
a
policy
position
or
join
in
a
brief
and
litigation
or
sign
on
to
something
and
they're
asking
in
the
capacity
for
the
city,
and
so,
if
that
only
goes
to
one
person,
then
it's
sometimes
lost.
It's
sometimes
not
happening.
C
Sometimes,
maybe
if
that
person
doesn't
want
to
vote
on
that
issue
or
take
a
stand
on
that
issue,
even
if
it's
not
the
will
of
the
majority,
they
might
ignore
that.
So
we
had
talked
about
bringing
that
forward,
that
request
for
appearances
or
policy
requests
would
be
forwarded
to
the
city
manager
or
something
like
that.
E
D
C
C
D
E
C
H
C
Know
and
I
think
it
would
be
something
like
if
a
council
member
receives
of
policy
a
request
for
the
City
Council
to
take
formal
policy.
That
would
be
a
policy
position
that
would
be
forwarded
to
the
city
staff
or
something
like
that
just
to
avoid
things
dropping
off
or
City
Councilmembers,
not
taking
action
or
allowing
it
to
go
to
the
body.
Well,.
H
That's
easy,
maybe
with
like
council,
remember
militant
indicate.
Just
all
research
requests
are
sent
to
all
council
members,
as
the
catch-all
Scottie
is
copying,
because
right
now
those
will
either
come
in.
You
know
sometimes
my
office,
sometimes
the
mayor's
office
and
we
try
to
sort
sort
them
out
of
prison
oprea
but
I
think
I,
hear
you're
saying.
Is
you
want
a
copy,
just
copy
everyone
that
way
you
can
respond
as
you
want
similar.
C
G
A
H
H
And
because
this
has
always
been
not
as
clear
as
it
could
be,
and
it's
helpful
for
staff
in
in
is
how
things
come
to
the
agenda
when
council
member
one
things
that
the
agenda
2.8
basically
I,
thought
it
addressed
it
enough,
but
we
may
want
to
clarify
it.
It
basically
indicates
that
at
a
council
meeting
a
council
member
will
will
raise
an
issue
and
then
council
will
give
a
staff
direction
if
you
want
it
to
be
agendize
or
some
other
action
taken.
H
A
H
Because
you
know
it's
difficult
to
bring
something
to
the
council
agenda
that
one
council
member
has
asked
now
a
subcommittee
is
a
little
different.
Union
we
may
want
to
have
languages
is
the
exception
for
a
subcommittee
on
issues,
but
it's
helpful
for
us
to
know
that
the
full
council
is
directing
that
the
work
that
staff
would
do
to
bring
to
the
council
agenda
because
those
does
require.
Usually
you
know,
obviously,
resources
and
staff
time.
C
Thank
you.
So
this
is
because
I
didn't
get
that
your
comment
from
reading
this
language.
So
tell
me
so
the
the
problem
we're
trying
to
solve
here
is
sort
of
it's
unclear
how
to
bring
items
to
the
agenda.
So
here
it's
explain
where
you're
thinking
and
then
maybe
we
can
incorporate
that
into
the
language.
H
H
So
please
bring
a
discussion
item
on
X
or
you
know,
whatever
issue
that
you
want
to
bring,
so
the
rule
has
been
or
the
practice
has
been,
that
a
council
member
will
ask
that
from
the
council
Dyess
and
then,
if,
if
there's
no
opposition
from
the
council
members,
we
would
in
essence
and
move
forward
to
bring
that
to
the
council
agenda.
If,
if
council
members
seem
to
have
of
resistance
to
it,
then
we
would
agendize
that
item
for
the
next
meeting
for
discussion
to
see
formally.
H
C
Agenda
development
and
and
I
mean
if
we
want
to.
We
should
have
more
formal
of
a
process
about
how
to
bring
items
forward,
especially
for
staff
as
you're
getting
five
council
members
throwing
lots
and
lots
of
things
at
you,
and
sometimes
it
seems
to
me
unclear
if
we're
just
saying.
Let's
talk
about
this
in
the
future
versus
let's
formally
add
this
to
the
agenda,
so
I
would
strongly
support
having
a
separate
provision
about
our
process
about
getting
items
on
the
agenda.
However
formal
you,
your
recommendation
would
be
on
that.
H
Actually,
I
think
that's
probably
the
best
solution
and
to
get
there
what
I
would
recommend.
Is
it
so
council
go
forward
with
this
here?
This
basically
embodies
I
think
what
you're
trying
to
accomplish
I
would
like
to
continue
working
with
the
subcommittee
on
a
specific
agenda
development
section,
which
we
could
just
bring
back
as
a
separate
item
when
that's
ready
to
go,
and
then
it
would
be
incorporated.
Okay,.
A
I'd
like
to
point
out
most
of
the
a
lot
of
the
changes
in
here
just
represent
changes
we've
gradually
made
over
the
last
year
or
so
like
on
page
13
under
agenda.
You
can
see
you
know,
the
order
has
been
changed
somewhat,
that
just
that's
nothing
new
that
just
reflects
what
we
actually
have
made
and
over
a
matter
time.
Another
thing
that's
rather
significant
is
page.
A
Page
20,
which
is
section
4.4,
decorum
and
order,
and
a
couple
other
short
sections
after
that
city
attorney,
gave
us
modified
language
for
those
sections
to
reflect
better
First,
Amendment
requirements
and
also
one
thing:
I
made
a
question
mark
here,
because
when
we,
this
is
something
I
added
after
council,
member
Roberts
and
I
had
met
because
it
came
up
in
the
last
election.
When
we
were
last
meeting
on
non
election
years,
the
election
of
the
Mayor
Pro
Tem
shall
be
conducted
during
the
I
put
first
meeting
in
January.
That
might
not
be
a
good
idea.
A
F
A
Says
that
says
it
accords
with
the
old
existing
languages
in
accordance
with
the
Palm
Springs
Sikh
Charter
Section
302
at
the
first
regular
City
Council
meeting
following
a
general
municipal
election
in
which
newly
elected
council
members
are
sworn
in
seated
at
the
first
regular
City
Council
meeting
following
the
anniversary
of
that
date
for
any
year,
in
which
note
the
City
Council
should
designate
one
of
its
members
as
mayor.
Pro-Tem
I
just
slide
it
on
non-election
year,
because
we
were
only
covering
election
years.
F
D
Only
thing
I
want
to
offer
is
that
it's
not
set
yet
because
you
haven't
decided
it
yet,
but
at
some
point
you're
going
to
adopt
a
procedure
through
which
the
city
of
Palm
Springs
will
select
a
mayor,
and
it
seems
to
me
you
may
wish
to
punt
on
this
issue
and
have
that
particular
item.
This
issue
addressed
in
the
same
resolution
that
you
ultimately
will
adopt
for
selection
of
your
mayor
or.
F
F
D
C
C
You
know
you
brought
this
forward
to
me
to
reopen
here
so
I
got
to
make
this
comment
is
that
I
still
strongly
believe
that
public
comments
for
non
agenda
items
should
be
at
the
beginning
of
the
meeting.
So
I
know
that
this
count
that
the
previous
council
decided
to
move
that
and
I
disagree.
I
think
it
needs
to
be
at
the
beginning
of
the
meeting.
C
I
think
our
job
is
to
hear
from
the
public
I
think
people
who
work
or
people
of
kids
or
people
who,
for
all
kinds
of
reasons,
can't
be
here
until
midnight
I
think
it's
really
really
important
to
have
us.
Do
our
job
of
listening
to
the
public,
so
I
know
that's
been
an
issue
in
the
past
with
lots
of
people
taking
that
time
to
make
community
announcements
and
get
on
our
local
TV
and
that
sort
of
thing,
but
I
just
I,
wanted
to
make
that
comment.
F
And
just
for
the
record
that
was
done.
That
was
a
balancing
act.
So
what
we
found
is
that
when
we
had
all
comments
at
the
beginning,
everybody
gave
their
comments
at
the
beginning
on
every
issue,
simply
so
that
they
could
go
home.
That
meant
that
anybody
that
was
here
to
speak
on
a
specific
issue
paid
a
severe
penalty.
F
So
we
were
trying
to
find
a
way
to
make
sure
that
the
people
who
had
to
be
here
to
speak
on
an
issue
or
that
it
was
vital,
didn't
have
to
sit
here
for
the
entire
night
and
that's
what
was
happening
in
those
days
Christy.
We
were
hearing
issues,
we
were
opening
our
agenda
at
10:00,
and
that
was
because
it
wasn't
the
grandstanding
aspect.
We
always
want
to
hear
from
the
public,
but
it
was
to
make
sure
that
we
spread
the
comments
throughout
the
entire
meeting
and
to
try
to
find
a
balance.
F
So
I
I'm
not
trying
to
talk
you
out
of
your,
how
you
feel
I
just
wanted
you
to
understand
why
we
went
in
that
direction.
It
wasn't
to
keep
anybody
from
speaking
was
simply
just
to
to
try
to
balance
the
public
comment,
so
I
still
very
much
support
what
we
did
not
because
we
did
it,
but
because
I
think
it.
F
C
Might
work
better
for
us,
but
it
might
not
work
as
well
for
the
people
who
want
to
come
to
City
Council
and
speak
to
us
as
a
body
which
is
different
on
the
record
on
TV
in
public,
which
is
different
than
calling
me
so
so
again,
I
will
continue
to
keep
that
position.
I
would
be
interested
from
staff
if
we
do
bring
this
back.
What's
the
practices
of
all
the
Vout
of
all
of
the
Coachella
Valley
cities,
I
know
some
of
them
split
it
up
differently.
C
A
A
You
like
who
want
to
come,
speak
and
have
opinions
that
are
involved,
we're
a
very
involved
City,
and
so
we
get
a
lot
of
people
who
want
to
come,
speak
on
agenda
items
and,
as
JR
said,
I
agree
that
we
should
give
the
people
who
want
to
speak
on
agenda
items
priority
to
speak.
It's
the
making
before
we
go
into
those
items.
F
I
will
throw
out
one
thing:
this
was
policy
that
actually
councilman
Coors
and
I
wrote
when
he
and
I
were
working
on
this
together,
and
it
was
at
a
time
that
it
was
vital
that
we
opened
this
up,
because
our
meetings
were
running
well
into
midnight
pretty
much
every
time
and
we
were
all
exhausted
and
staff
was
wrecked.
One
thing
we
did
consider
was
perhaps
having
a
limited
number
of
public
comments
at
the
beginning,
tapping
it
for
for
the
first
30
minutes
or
something
like
that.
We
just
never
could
really
figure
out.
F
Who
would
get
that
those
those
time
slots,
and
maybe
there
are
things
that
we
can
do
to
Institute.
That
and
I'd
still
be
open
to
that
again.
It
was
really
about
balancing
time
and
giving,
as
the
mayor
pointed
out,
priority
to
those
who
had
to
be
here
who
had
to
speak
people
who
drove
from
long
distances,
and
they
didn't
have
a
choice
whether
they
could
be
here
or
not.
We're
public
speakers
who
are
just
here
to
talk
to
us
about
things
have
a
choice:
jr.
A
D
Wanted
to
speak
to
that
mr.
mayor
I
reviewed
the
law
on
this
issue
very
carefully,
and
it's
very
clear
from
the
Brown
Act
that
you
can
limit
debate
and
discussion
on
a
particular
topic
with
respect
to
any
limitation.
That
seems
reasonable.
The
key
concept
here
is
reasonable
and
you
could,
if
you
were
going
to
have
an
initial
public
comment,
prioritized
I
presume
by
the
submission
of
slips
and
then
allow
subsequent
public
comment
at
a
later
time
in
the
agenda
in
the
evening.
D
Continue
that
what
would
seem
arbitrary-
and
this
is
the
reason
I
interject
it
on
the
30-minute
rule
that
had
been
proposed
is
it's.
It
seems
that
it's
a
little
bit
far
but
rarey
it.
There
may
be
topics
that
thirty
minutes
is
not
nearly
enough.
There
may
be
topics
that
30
minutes
is
way
too
much
and
for
general
public
comment.
If
there's
forty
people
that
want
to
speak,
thirty
minutes
doesn't
really
allow
for
more
than
fifteen
of
them
right,
which
is.
F
D
E
I
would
like
to
interject
that
I'm
very
open
to
what
councilmember
holstege
is
recommending,
but
I'm
not
there.
Yet
if
that
makes
any
sense,
I
think
there
may
be
a
time
when
we
will
be
able
to
make
changes.
That
would
allow
for
more
open-ended,
probably
comment
at
the
beginning
of
our
meetings,
but
we
still
find
ourselves
very
very
frequently
in
meetings
till
eleven
twelve
o'clock
at
the
evening,
and
so
until
we
can
get
a
better
handle
on
meetings
that
are
over
at
a
earlier
time.
C
I
can
comment
because
I
really
like
that
idea
that
the
subcommittee
brought
forward
to
having
set
time,
so
we
wouldn't
be
able
to
the
city
attorney
in
that
answer.
So
we
wouldn't
be
able
to
have
a
section
for
public
comment.
The
first
fifteen
speakers
and
then
adjourn
that
public
comment
on
non-agenda
items
to
the
end
of
the
meeting.
I
think.
C
D
A
A
B
Mayor
and
city
council,
due
to
a
change
in
state
law,
SB
415
most
cities
have
adopted
a
plan
for
transitioning
from
odd
number
to
even-numbered
year.
Elections.
Currently,
Palm
Springs
general
elections
occur
in
November
of
odd
number
years.
This
is
a
request
for
city
council
to
consider
and
provide
direction
on
the
various
options
for
transitioning
to
even-numbered
election
years.
The
options
are
outlined
in
the
staff
report
and
I
defer
to
the
City
Council
ad
hoc
subcommittee
on
the
CBRE.
E
It
was
to
me
here:
Thank
You,
councilman
Coors
has
been
the
individual
who
has
most
closely
worked
on
the
law
with
relation
to
this,
and
what
I
would
like
to
suggest
is
we
certainly
receive
any
comments
that
any
of
our
colleagues
have
I.
Think
some
of
the
questions
are
fairly
straightforward.
That
need
to
be
resolved,
but
that
we
defer
this
until
the
next
meeting,
when
all
five
of
us
can
be
here
to
to
cast
a
vote
on
this
issue.
I'm
fine.
A
B
J
Please
Thank
You
Marion
Council,
we're
very
pleased
to
bring
this
board
for
your
consideration
tonight.
This
is
a
big
change
at
the
airport
coming
that
we've
been
working
on
for
the
last
several
years.
This
is
regarding
the
airport,
ticketing,
Hall
expansion
and
just
briefly,
this
is
an
important
project
to
address,
as
dr.
Reddy
mentioned,
are
exploding
passenger
growth
and
through
the
airport,
and
addresses
the
circulation
and
queuing
deficiencies
in
the
ticketing
wing,
as
well
as
addressing
much-needed
improvements
behind
the
scenes.
J
The
TSA
baggage
screening
area
and
systems
that
address
that
component
of
the
airport
and
these
these
elements
were
previously
provided
to
the
council
when
they
reviewed
the
design
development
drawings.
The
item
before
you
tonight
is
related
to
the
final
construction,
drawings
and
pre-qualification
of
contractors.
So
I
just
want
to
toggle
between
these
two
slides
to
show
you.
J
The
yellow
area
is
essentially
the
public
queuing
space
which
is
really
constricted
where
the
airline
counters
are
and
the
net
effect
of
this
project
is
all
behind
the
scenes
and
expands
the
the
public
space
by
about
19
feet
and
then
the
pink
areas
are
all
the
air
airline
terminal
offices
and
the
blue
area
is
the
new
combined
efficient,
TSA
screening
and
baggage
system
handling
area.
As
I
mentioned,
there
were
prior
approvals
granted
by
the
council
in
May
to
move
forward
with
design
development.
J
The
project
did
go
through
the
architectural
Advisory
Committee
last
July,
I'm,
sorry
in
July
2017
and
then
in
November
2017.
The
council
approved
the
preliminary
design
and
selected
a
monochromatic
color
palette
for
the
interior,
flooring
and
ceiling
finishes,
and
here's
some
slides
that
just
show
the
final
design.
So
this
is
just
a
emphasize.
This
is
probably
the
biggest
piece
of
this
project
and
it's
very
complicated
and
long
lead
item
that
we
have
to
work
on
getting
this
scheduled
for
all
of
these
pieces
to
line
up
for
this
to
be
constructed
next
summer.
In
2020.
J
Those
will
have
shade
canopies
that
the
AAC
reviewed
and
approved-
and
this
was
what
the
council
previously
reviewed
and
the
top
showed
a
warmer
color
palette
and
the
bottom,
a
monochromatic
color
palette.
The
council
chose
the
bottom
monochromatic
palette
and
the
design
final
designs
have
been
completed
with
that
direction
and
the
whole
design
is
still
holding
true
to
the
mid-century
modern
design
of
the
terminal.
J
J
J
There's
been
a
few
cases
where
we
do
pre-qualification
of
contractors.
We
did
it
with
the
downtown
parking
structure
on
Burroughs,
though
we
did
it
with
the
wastewater
treatment
plant
upgrade
and
we've
also
done
it
here.
State
public
contracting
code
and
our
municipal
code
allows
the
council
to
prequalify
contractors
when
there's
a
part
works
contract
project
of
significant
complexity
and
specialty,
and
this
is
definitely
one
that
we
felt
needed
to
have
pre-qualified
contractors.
So
the
city
released
a
solicitation
last
August
five
responded
and
it's
really
a
pass-fail.
There
were
specific
requirements
for
qualifications.
J
J
The
current
cost
estimate
is
twenty-eight
point
two
million
and
as
I
mentioned,
this
will
allow
us
to
proceed
with
bidding
to
the
four
pre-qualified
contractors,
and
once
we
have
that
low
bid,
then
we
can
proceed
with.
What's
detailed
in
your
staff
report
the
process
to
do
the
bonds,
the
bonds
that
are
paid
for
through
passenger
facility
fees
and
what
we're
requesting
you
tonight
is
to
approve
the
for
pre-qualified
contractors
actually
determine,
as
we've
recommended
the
one
qualified
non
qualified
contractor
and
approve
the
plans
and
specifications
and
authorized
bidding
Tom
no
one's
here.
F
Thank
You
mayor
this
is
unrelated
to
pre
qualified
contractors,
but
dr.
Reddy,
when
we
did
a
walkthrough
with
the
director
of
the
airport,
who
I
know
is
here
tonight.
I
know
we
spent
some
time
also
talking
about
changes
to
the
North
End
or
the
North
Hall
I
know
the
TSA
expansion
was
going
to
eliminate
some
existing
potentially
eliminate
some
other
businesses
and
we
talked
about
adding
a
bar
or
something
over
on
the
north
end
and
I.
Never
really
heard
the
end
of
that
piece
of
it
and
I
was
wondering
where
we
were
without
and.
H
F
K
K
Maintain
that
and
the
city
manager
did
allude
to
the
fact
that
the
cueing
check
point
that
is
being
addressed
also
in
2020,
with
some
of
it
also
being
addressed
this
fall.
So
the
combination
of
those
two
initiatives
will
resolve
both
the
short
term
and
the
long
term
need
for
additional
queuing
lanes.
You
answered.
E
I
think
that
just
a
fabulous
project
and
I
am
thrilled
that
we
are
getting
to
this
point.
This
is
question
just
really
to
get
it
on
the
record.
The
original
estimate
was
21
to
22
million
dollars
for
the
project.
If
I
read
correctly,
we're
at
twenty-eight
point
two
million
dollars
now
in
terms
of
the
estimate,
none
of
this
money
comes
from
the
general
fund.
This
is
all
being
revenues
that
are
being
produced
through
the
airport
revenues
that
is
correct.
Okay,
thank
you.
Okay,.
A
F
A
J
K
F
L
J
So
here
we
go
as
detailed
in
the
staff
report
and
Alber
be
brief
in
my
presentation
and
welcome
any
questions.
This
is
an
update
to
a
prior
pavement
management
report
prepared
and
I
believe
the
inspections
were
done
in
2014.
The
report
was
reviewed
in
2015
and,
as
all
of
you
know,
that
reports
been
used
consistently
as
the
basis
for
identifying
streets
for
repairs
based
on
a
worst
first
approach.
J
J
Our
arterioles
20%
are
collectors
and
over
half
our
residential
local
streets
and
I'm.
Sorry
I,
we
have
I'll,
explain
centerline
miles.
Centerline
miles
are
essentially
what
we
go
by
that's
just
along
the
centerline
of
the
street
Lane
miles
involve
calculating
how
many
lanes,
if
it's
a
four
lane
street
you
multiply
the
centerline
mile
by
four,
and
so
it's
just
another
metric
for
how
much
pavement
we
have.
But,
as
you
can
see
in
the
table,
we
have
fifty
point
eight
million
square
feet
of
pavement
and
that's
an
a
very
impressive
asset
that
the
city
owns.
J
J
So
I'll
just
quickly
go
through
this,
but
the
pavement
management
program
is
a
very
in
sensual,
important
tool
for
us
to
use
because
it
stores
and
retrieves
data
it's
the
data
base
for
our
system
of
streets
and
allows
us
to
do
objective
method
of
determining
what
streets
to
move
forward
with
for
repair
the
way
they
do.
This
and
I'm
gonna
welcome
your
questions,
because
our
good
consultants
have
waited
tonight
and
are
here
in
fact,
one
of
them.
Men
here
was
involved
with
the
visual
inspections
and
what
they
do
is
they
go
through
and
review?
J
Each
street
segment
and
look
for
these
eight
common
de-stresses
and
this
methodology
has
been
used
for
decades
and
was
established
by
the
Army
Corps
of
Engineers.
So
it's
a
we
take
ourselves
out
of
the
mix.
This
is
an
objective
approach
by
a
a
professional
third-party
engineer.
That's
experienced
in
this
very
scope
of
work,
and
so
those
are
examples
there
of
the
types
of
de-stresses
that
often
occur
in
street
pavement
and
obviously
the
more
distressed
types
and
quantity
of
those
de-stresses
on
each
street.
J
The
lower
the
pavement
condition
index
pavement
condition
index,
as
I
meant
varies
from
0
to
100,
0
being
worst
and
100
being
brand-new
pavement.
We've
also
since
implemented
a
letter
grade
score
to
help
people
understand
well,
what
is
a
PCI
of
87
mean.
Well,
we
we,
we
rate
that
as
a
good
condition,
meaning
your
street
as
a
as
an
hae
and
so
forth,
and
here's
some
just
photo
examples
of
what
these
PCI
scores
generally
look
like.
J
Obviously,
100
is
a
brand
new
street
and
83
has
had
some
wear
and
tear,
as
I
noted
in
the
staff
report.
Asphalt,
if
you
don't
know,
is
essentially
just
oil
and
and
gravel
crushed
miscellaneous
base,
and
so
as
as
the
oil
dries
out
over
time,
it
becomes
brittle.
And
that's
when
that
just
those
two
stresses
appear,
we
have
the
benefit
of
in
the
desert
of
having
a
great
environment
for
preserving
asphalt,
because
we
don't
have
freeze
and
thaw.
J
We
don't
have
a
lot
of
rain
and
it's
that
those
effects
that
really
tear
up
streets
and
that's
why,
in
back
east,
you
see
streets
are
in
a
lot
worse
condition
than
we're
where
we
live
and
then
here's
an
example
of
a
70
and
a
50
and
25.
So
it
gives
you
a
sense
of
what
the
engineer
looks
for
when
he's
out
there
evaluating
each
street
segment
and
here's.
What
I
want
to
show
you
so
in
in
the
over
the
last
four
years.
J
And
so
you
can
see
the
blue
represents
where
we're
at
today,
and
so
we've
made
significant
progress
in
the
quantity
of
good
streets
and
in
fair
streets
and
what's
really
marked
demonstration
of
progress
is
on
the
right-hand
side,
where
the
very
poor
streets,
which
is
where
we
focused
our
attention,
we've
really
decreased
the
the
quantity
of
streets.
In
that
condition,
the
pavement
condition.
The
pavement
management
program
includes
a
table
identifying
the
overall
pavement
condition
index
of
each
recognized
neighborhood.
J
I
think
I've
consistently
said
in
the
past:
it's
50
cents
or
so
a
square
foot
to
do
a
micro
mill,
slurry
seal
and
retry
restriped.
The
street
versus
about
253
dollars
to
do
a
reconstruct
or
grind
and
overlay,
so
it's
it's
five
times
more
expensive.
So
in
a
perfect
world,
we'd
have
all
of
our
streets
into
a
good
condition
and
have
the
sufficient
funds
to
do
a
slurry
seal
every
five
to
seven
years
to
keep
those
streets
from
degrading
to
the
point
where
they
need
further
repairs.
J
J
So
the
report
that
was
included
in
your
packet
identified
a
couple
of
scenarios
if
we
had
no
money,
if
we
maintain
current
funding
of
4
million
a
year
and
then
to
maintain
our
current
payment
condition,
index
requires
an
investment
of
five
and
a
half
million
a
year
and
then,
if
we
have
more
money
than
that,
the
recommendation
from
the
consult
would
be
six
and
a
quarter
million
a
year
just
to
really
maintain
and
improve
our
PCI.
And
these
graphs
really
tell
the
story.
J
So
if
you
do
nothing,
obviously
your
conditions
going
to
plummet
and
that's
the
one
line
graph
and
then
the
bar
graph
just
shows
your
increasing
backlog
of
deferred
maintenance,
which
just
significantly
increases.
If
we
maintain
what
we're
doing
the
payment
conditions,
gonna
fluctuate
a
little
bit,
but
it
will.
It's
projected
to
decrease
slightly
and
as
well
as
our
backlog
of
deferred
maintenance,
what's
estimated
at
69
million.
J
If
we
invest
five
and
a
half
million
a
year
again,
it
maintains
a
pavement
condition
index
of
seventy
three
and
slightly
reduces
estimated
backlog
of
deferred
maintenance
in
the
future.
And
then
this
is
just
another
scenario
that,
with
a
slightly
more
money,
we're
elevating
our
pavement
condition
index
and
keeping
our
backlog
deferred
maintenance,
255
million.
So
we
definitely
recommend
we
maintain
4
million
a
year
for
asphalt
repairs
in
the
not-too-distant
future.
J
So
there
could
be
a
scenario
where
we
can
get
to
that
six
and
a
quarter
million
as
soon
as
that
bond
payment
is
over
and
I
think
in
the
next
year
or
two,
and
we
will
continue
to
update
this
payment
management
program
because
it
is
a
living
document
and
focus
on
arterial
and
collector
streets
every
two
years
and
residential
streets
every
four
years
we
do
suggest.
We
continue
with
the
worst
first
approach
and
we
will
make
this
report
public
for
full
inspection
on
our
website
through
1ps
to
all
the
neighborhood's.
J
We
anticipate
and
welcome
all
of
the
questions
that
will
come,
but
we
see
this
as
a
step
forward
to
continuing
our
our
efforts
to
improve
our
city
streets.
So
with
that
I'll
end,
my
report,
but
I
welcome
any
detailed
technical
questions
to
the
consultant
and
I'm
happy
to
answer
that
I'm
able
to
Thank
You
mr.
mayor.
A
One
quick
question:
I
know:
I,
know
I'm
talking
to
you.
You've
you've
been
working
very
hard
over
the
last
couple
years
to
coordinate
with
desert,
Water,
Agency,
Edison
spectrum
and
other
utility
companies,
because,
especially
in
the
past,
we'd
pay,
you
pay
Ventura
Road
and
three
months
later,
one
of
the
utilities
comes
and
digs
it
up,
and
then
they
patch
it
and
it's
just
not
the
same.
Are
you
making
progress?
Are
they
working
with
you
better
than
they
used
to?
Yes,
we.
J
Learned
early
on
that,
the
oldest
worst
condition
streets
have
the
oldest
water
line.
So
when
we
reconstructed
particularly
in
old,
las
palmas,
the
first
project
when
we
reconstruct
these
streets
were
actually
doing
it
in
an
economic
and
efficient
way.
What
port
of
light
well
pulverizing
the
asphalt
and
mix
again
into
the
road
base
and
then
paving
over
that?
J
Well,
that
effort
that
work,
vibrates
the
water
lines
and
they
were
susceptible
to
breaking,
and
so
now
we're
coordinating
what
does
a
water
agency
and
identifying
any
water
lines
that
they're
going
to
replace
it
and
in
the
in
the
near
future.
The
problem
is:
is
they
have
a
lot
of
water
lines
to
replace
and
there
are
5
10
15
years
out?
So
we're
not
deferring
Street
maintenance
that
far?
J
E
Marcus,
thank
you
outstanding
report
and
I
am
just
thrilled
that
over
the
last
few
years
we
have
repaved
40
percent
of
our
streets,
as
I
had
mentioned
earlier,
I
was
the
League
of
California
cities,
Transportation
Committee
meeting
and
according
to
the
Department
of
Transportation
statewide
average
PCI
score
is
sixty
four
point.
Seven.
So
I
am
really
looking
forward
to
going
to
my
next
neighborhood
meeting,
wherever
it
is
in
saying
our
average
score
is
better
than
the
state's
score.
E
One
of
the
things
that
we've
had
an
awful
lot
of
phone
calls
and
emails
coming
in
indicating
that
somehow
or
another
people
are
arbitrarily
manipulating
these
PCI
scores.
So
did
anyone
ask
you
to
change
any
PCI
score,
ended
anyone
on
staffs
change,
any
PCI
score
from
what
was
objectively
identified
by
the
outside
experts.
No
thank
you.
I'm.
Sorry
I
have
to
even
ask
that,
but
it's
there.
F
E
J
J
So
we
have
a
lot
of
streets
that
have
generally
the
same
condition
and
so
looking
at
the
updated
report,
there's
a
hundred
and
twenty
six
streets
that
all
have
the
same
score
of
55
and
that's
2.9
million
square
feet
of
pavement,
which
is
probably
9
to
10
million
dollars.
So
we
won't
be
able
to
do
that
all
in
one
project,
and
so
the
idea
would
be
to
go
back
to
the
table.
E
J
E
J
Some
streets
that
had
a
and
these
were
the
details
we
were
trying
to
vet
with
the
consultant
because
we
used
the
same
exact
consultant.
In
fact,
the
same
gentleman
was
involved
in
inspecting
the
streets
the
last
time,
so
there's
consistency
in
the
methodology
of
how
this
individual
evaluates
the
streets,
but
as
an
example
in
2015
there
were
some
streets
that
had
recently
had
repairs.
J
They
had
been
slurry
and
crack
filled,
and
so
they
had
a
higher
PCI
score
than
perhaps
was
reflective
of
what
his
condition
was,
because
I
had
recently
had
repairs
and
so
over
the
last
five
years.
It's
those
cracks
are
reflected
so
that
PCI
score
has
dropped
so
based
on
a
five
million
dollar
budget,
we
could
probably
get
through
in
the
update
a
report
to
a
score
of
47
47
48.
Maybe
it's
still
pretty.
F
F
Imagine
there
some
special
software
you
use
to
create
this
report
and
I'm
wondering
if
there's
any
way
that
this
software
could
be
manipulated,
where
someone
could
specifically
ask
at
least
the
condition
of
their
Street
and
then
with
that
number
they
could
cross-reference
to
what
that
actually
means.
In
the
case
of
my
street,
it's
a
sixty
and
then
there
could
be
a
simple
explanation.
Saying
a
sixty
is
about
a
middle
range.
It's
not
a
top
priority
and
then,
as
Councilwoman
Middleton
expressed,
it
might
say
you
know
you
are
not.
F
Your
street
is
not
likely
to
be
in
the
queue
for
the
next
year
or
two.
Is
there
any
way
that
we
could
have
something
that
simple?
I
I
know
that's
a
complicated
bit
of
software,
where
someone
can
literally
type
in
their
street
or
their
address
and
have
their
street
condition
pop
up
with
the
explanation.
Next
to
it
of
what
that
number
means.
I
think.
J
It's
even
better
than
that,
so
we
now
have
a
GIS
staff
person,
so
I'm
going
to
put
Aaron
Brown
on
the
spot,
but
the
idea
is
we're.
Gonna
have
this
report
tied
into
our
GIS
system,
so
somebody
can
select
their
Street
on
the
map
and
it'll
pop
up
with
all
the
information
about
it,
and
we
can
populate
that
kind
of
information
and
estimated
schedule
for
their
repair.
So.
F
That's
great
news,
I'm
sure
we're
all
excited
about
that,
and
what
I'd
like
to
suggest
now
is
that
we
put
a
very
concentrated
promotion
on
that
I
think
the
community
would
be
thrilled
to
have
access
to
something
like
that
and
I
suspect
we'd
be
pretty
cutting
edge.
By
doing
that,
and
again,
thank
you
for
this
great
report.
It's
I
think
it's
the
best
work
you've
done
on
this
since
I've
been
on
the
council.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
I.
C
Thank
You
mr.
mayor,
thank
you
to
our
assistant
city
manager
for
all
your
work
on
this
he's
an
incredible
public
servant.
What
I've
seen
him
go
through
about
these
PCI
reports
and
all
the
constituent
and
public
questions
about
that,
so
you've
really
you've
done
an
incredible
job
and
you've
really
been
responsive.
C
So
thank
you
for
all
of
your
work.
Just
for
the
record
for
anyone
complaining
about
streets,
my
street
is
41,
has
a
PCI
of
41,
which
is
nearly
very
low
and
I've
never
once
complained
to
Marcus,
because
I
trust
the
process,
and
so
here
we're
using
an
incredible,
transparent
process
where
we
hired
an
outside
consultant
to
do
this
really
really
comprehensive
report.
So
thank
you,
I
think
we're
using
excellent
process.
I
think
it's
very
transparent
for
the
public
I
would
echo
my
comment.
C
So
my
questions
are
in
my
comments
mostly,
so
this
is
really
helpful.
I
think
the
numbers
about
the
amount
that
we
have
to
invest
every
year,
just
to
maintain
our
streets
and
then
really
to
not
be
losing
ground
in
the
future,
is
a
bit
terrifying
sitting
up
here,
because
we
really
need
to
spend
some
money
here
to
keep
this
going
and
not
fall
behind
like
we
have
before
we
had
really
revenue
sources
for
that.
So
my
question
is
here
so
I
see
that
there
are
different
recommendations.
C
Really
this
is
going
to
go
through
the
budget
process
right.
So
this
will
be.
The
allocation
will
be
a
decision
that
will
make
and
will
bring
this
back
up
when
we
decide
on
the
final
budget
for
the
next
fiscal
year
right.
So
we
don't
have
to
give
recommendation
to
staff
about
what
amounts
we're
looking
at
I'd
like
us
to
talk
about
and
for
the
committee
that
higher
number,
because
it's
terrifying
and
looking
and
seeing
the
overall
amounts
that
are
coming
forward
in
the
future
and
spending
that
down
as
much
as
possible,
I
think
makes
sense.
C
I
had
a
question
about
the
worst
first
model,
with
the
neighborhood
second
factor.
So
in
your
report
you
talked
about
the
worst:
we're
gonna
prioritize
the
worst
streets
first,
which
of
course
is
the
best
way
to
do
it,
and
then
you
talked
about
to
do
cost
savings.
We
would
look
at
neighborhoods.
Is
that
for
economies
of
scale
so
that
we're
doing
it
all
at
once
in
a
certain
area?
I
didn't
quite
follow
that
full
part
about
the
neighborhood
factor
in
that
assessment
and
I
expect.
J
Half
of
the
streets
are
the
same
score
that
aren't
in
neighborhoods
and
half
are,
but
we
would
basically
look
at
each
neighborhood
based
on
their
overall
payment
condition,
the
one
that
has
the
lowest.
If
the
tie
was
a
fifty
five,
we
would
pick
their
streets
that
have
a
fifty
five.
Then
we
would
go
to
the
next
neighborhood
that
has
the
next
lowest
overall
PCI
score
and
select
their
streets.
I'd
have
a
fifty
five,
so
that's
just
one
method
of
how
we
can
get
through
streets
that
all
have
the
same
condition
now.
J
I
have
staff
here
and
I
have
one
at
home.
That's
watching
and
text
me
and
said
that.
Actually,
the
report
goes
out
to
four
decimal
places,
but
I
don't
know
that
we
want
that
I.
You
know.
We've
been
publishing
this
rounded
to
the
nearest
digit,
so
there
is
a
there
is
a
way
where
we
can
actually
get
to
that
level
of
detail
and
and
and
do
it
to
the
fourth
decimal
place,
but
I
think
we're
getting
to
to
find
a
point
there.
So
so.
C
J
To
be
fair
to
the
process
and
what
we
found
in
the
last
four
or
five
years
is:
we've
grouped
these
projects
together
they
are
spread
throughout
the
city
and
so
what
the
contractor
does
is.
He
develops
his
own
mobilization,
schedule
and
groups
his
own
work
in
an
economy
of
scale
that
works
for
him.
So
we
didn't
see
any
appreciable
increase
in
price
because
the
streets
were
kind
of
scattered
all
over
the
city.
So.
C
C
First,
two
I'm
worried
about
new
all
the
streets,
and
it
seemed
like
a
lot
that
460
sections
of
Street
that
are
not
assigned
and
neighborhood
so
are
we
gonna,
then
put
them
in
neighborhoods
where
right,
we
have
to
consider
where
we're
investing
that
so
I'm
worried
about
not
assigned
streets
and
just
again
the
optics
and
the
questions
we
get
about.
If
it's,
my
council,
members,
neighborhood
or
district
or
Street
I,
just
think
it
actually
adds
more
confusion
for
the
public
in
a
way
that
we
should
just
I
think
do
worst,
first
to
the
extent
practicable.
C
So
if
you
have
other
recommendations
about
strategies-
or
you
know,
I
think
grouping
it
together
makes
sense
to
save
money
or
or
whatever
it
is,
but
I
understand
spreading
it
through
the
city.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
all
the
neighborhoods
get
repairs
that
we're
spreading
it
equitably
through
the
city
and
making
sure
all
areas
of
Palm
Springs
fairly
get
the
investment
but
I'm
just
kind
of
concerned,
and
that
doesn't
seem
super
well-defined.
E
But,
as
Marcus
said,
we
do
also
have
to
consider
those
streets
that
are
actually
not
in
neighborhoods.
The
other
thing
that
is
the
fat
mitigating
factor
on
this
is
whether
or
not
it's
an
arterial
or
collector
street,
and
we
have
tried
to
prioritize
arterials
and
collectors
and
most
of
those
don't
necessarily
fall
within
specific
neighborhoods
right.
C
And
I
think
that's
my
concern
and
we
want
to
serve
the
residents.
So
you
know
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
investing
this
in
a
way,
but
we
in
a
way
that
serves
the
residents,
but
we
want
to
make
sure
we're
doing
it
in
an
objective
way
that
that
deals
with
the
most
important
streets
as
well
so
I'm
a
little
concerned
that
that
method
would
put
more
priority
on
neighborhoods
versus
arterioles
and
important
streets
at
the
discretion
of
the
staff.
C
E
That
is
a
very
small
difference
between
them,
but
the
54
is
gonna,
get
done
first,
and
sometimes
you
if
you're
on
that
55
and
it's
the
street,
that's
54,
that's
getting
the
work
done.
It's
not
hard
to
come
to
the
conclusion.
Gosh
I
think
my
street
was
in
worse
shape
than
the
other
Street,
when
it's
that
close,
it's
just
hard
to
the
differences,
are
really
small.
A
E
I'll
personally
say
that
I
think
we
should
make
sure
that
we
continue
to
do
this
from
worse
to
best
and
that
we
not
prioritize
depending
on
who,
what
district
someone
is
in
I
would
hate
to
have
a
sketch
to
the
point
to
where
we
have
five
city,
council,
districts
and
20%
of
the
funds
go
to
each
district
or
something
like
that.
It's
just
it.
G
C
Agree
and
that's
why
I
think
the
objective
measure
and
I
actually
would
look
at
if
it
were
just
me:
I'd,
probably
just
go
by
decimal.
You
know
and
go
worse
first
because
I
think
that's
an
objective
measure
that
people
can
follow
and
we
can
explain
that
more
easily.
I
think
then
yeah
districts.
It
gets
to
a
whole
thing
and
that's
we
want
to
say
we're
serving
the
city
as
a
whole
and
doing
that
is
investing
in
our
streets.
So.
H
Okay,
any
more
discussion.
Mr.
mayor
I
just
had
just
one
question
to
click
clarify,
but
one
of
the
issues
that
that
seems
to
raise
over
again
is
Street
may
be
in
the
process
of
being
completed
and
all
of
a
sudden
it
stops
to
block
short
or
three
blocks
short
of
finalizing
and
the
the
answer
was,
and
continues
to
be
to
some
sort
that
well,
this
portion
of
the
road
had
a
much
lower
score
than
the
other
portion
and
this
the
booth.
H
Therefore
we
didn't
do
it,
although
on
a
on
a
practical
level,
it
may
may
just
make
sense
to
do
those
final,
two
or
three
blocks,
so
Marcus
I
just
want
to
I
think
you
you
sort
of
resolve
this,
but
but
that
there
is
besides
just
the
mechanical
numbers.
There
also
is
your
contemplated
knowledge,
you
and
your
staff
on
this.
So
when
you
need
to
go
ahead
and
do
that
little
extra,
it
has
a
a
qualitative
normative
sort
of
input
from
you,
as
opposed
to
just
following
the
numbers.
Can
you
explain
that
process?
Yes,.
J
And
so
there's
been
limited,
Kay
is
where
we
did
that,
where
there
was
a
short
100
or
200
foot
segment,
that
was
not
going
to
be
repaved,
but
the
other
segments
next
to
it
and
for
whatever
reason,
the
condition
of
that
street
segment
just
didn't
have
as
much
distress
on
it,
and
so
it
just
made
common
sense
to
include
that
street
segment.
Since
the
other
segments
were
being
completed,
we'll
highlight
those
two
1ps
into
the
council
to
the
degree
we
can
so
you're
aware
of
those
limited
occasions
where
we
we
do
that.
A
F
Mayor
can
I
ask
a
question
before
we
move
forward
with
this.
It
seems
to
me:
councilman
Corps
should
probably
be
here
for
this,
because
we're
making
decisions
about
appointments
and
so
forth
and
I'm
sure
he
has
preferences
and
thoughts
on
this.
Can
we
continue
this
to
our
next
meeting
when
he
can
be
here
as
well,
or
we
could
just
put
him
on
all
of
the
subcommittees
that
we
don't
want
to
be
on
I'm
open
to
either
one
of
those
choices,
but
that's
I
think.
A
E
I
agree:
I
think
it
would
be
better
just
my
suspicion,
as
most
of
us
are
going
to
want
to
stay
with
what
we
already
have
and
just
to
to
make
it
move
more
quickly.
The
next
time,
perhaps
we
could
take
a
look
at
everything
that
we
currently
have
and
send
something
to
the
city
manager
indicating
any
changes
that
we
would
like
in
the
assignments
that
we
have
anything
new.
We
would
like
anything
that
we
would
like
to
drop
so
that,
when
we
get
together
in
two
weeks,
we
can
hopefully
move
very
quickly
through
I.
F
C
I
can
quickly
I
I
talked
to
Mayor
Pro
Tem
Kors.
Today
about
his
preferences,
a
bit
and
I
just
wanted
to
talk
about
with
the
council.
They
get
a
sense
of
before
we
do
some
of
that
work.
Do
we
want
to
and
I
thank
you
for
the
recommendations.
I
think
some
of
them
make
a
lot
of
sense,
eliminating
ones
we
no
longer
use
merging
them
together.
C
So
do
we
want
to
discuss
now
if
we
have
a
sense
of
if
we
just
want
to
maintain
our
appointments
other
than
these
recommendations,
or
do
we
want
to
just
table
it
all
until
the
next
meeting
I
would
hate
for
us
to
go
and
engage
in
the
process
of
emailing
all
of
our
preferences?
If
the
will
of
the
majority
is
to
stay
on
the
Commission's
on
the
committees
that.
F
A
A
B
A
B
Mayor
and
city
council,
the
yesterday
the
council
subcommittee,
consisting
of
councilmembers
Middleton
and
Roberts
interviewed
candidates
for
the
Administrative
Appeals
Board.
Their
recommendations
for
a
point
for
appointment
are
presented
in
the
staff
report,
which
include
Stephen,
Moses,
Jocelyn,
Kane
and
wings,
and
Claire
and
I
defer
to
the
subcommittee.
E
I
think
these
are
three
very
strong
candidates.
We
had
a
number
of
strong
candidates,
the
only
thing
I
would
add
is
councilmember
Roberts
and
I
also
discussed
the
possibility
of
identifying
two
alternates
so
that
if
one
of
the
one
or
more
of
the
five
members
of
the
administrative
appeals
board
are
unavailable,
that
we
would
have
alternates
that
we
could
call
on.
F
I
concur
with
Councilwoman
and
the
sooner
the
better.
This
backlog
that
this
board
is
faced
with
is
is
enormous,
and
we've
obviously
had
some
some
real
problems
in
the
past
due
to
the
quality
of
our
of
our
board
and
that
most
of
them
still
work.
Most
of
them
are
still
working
full-time
jobs
and
we're
missing
a
lot
of
meetings,
so
I
think
because
of
the
type
of
work
they're
doing
their
workload,
we
should
get
a
bigger
board
for
this
and
quickly,
almost
in
an
urgency
manner.
I
would
say,
I
would
suggest
so.
C
G
C
B
I
spoke
to
Peter
and-
and
he
advised
me
that
he
was
actually
interested
in
serving
on
the
board
of
appeals,
as
he
knows
it
in
that
his
understanding
was
correct,
that
it's
construction
related
in
building
and
safety
issues.
So
he
he
actually
confirmed
that
he'd
like
to
be
appointed
to
the
board
of
appeals
and
not
the
a
B.
Thank.
C
You,
but
so
the
recommendation
is
for
two
alternates
or
why
are
we
picking
that
number,
because
I
know
we've
had
actually
a
lot
of
absences
in
the
past
right.
So
sometimes
we've
had
three
absences,
so
I'm
wondering
if
we
need
to
appoint
more
alternates.
I
know
it's
difficult
for
alternates,
but
I'm
just
wondering
if
it's
the
right
number
is
to
well.
E
F
And
we're
open
to
increasing
the
size
of
the
board
itself
to
seven
and
then
adding
to
and
adding
in,
as
well
as
the
two
alternates
again
just
because
the
case
low
that
this
board,
seeing
now
so
I
mean
I,
guess
that
can
be
up
for
discussion.
But
it
was
something
that
councilman
Middleton
and
I
discussed
at
great
length.
If.
D
You
go
to
seven
presumptively.
There
wouldn't
be
rulings
that
were
final
unless
four
members
voted,
but
I
would
want
to
get
that
direction
before
we
actually
took
to
drafting
so
with
the
direction
to
staff
that
you're,
giving
please
at
least
a
point,
a
liaison
who
can
work
with
me
and
give
me
that
substantive
direction
as
to
what
you
want
to
see
in
the
ordinance.
So.
D
Planning,
that's
exactly
why
and
what's
a
majority
of
the
body
present
and
I'm
presuming
if
we're
gonna
follow
step
with
the
other
boards
that
we
have
and
the
prior
conversations
that
the
council
has
had.
You're
gonna
want
at
least
four
members
of
a
seven-member
board
to
be
voting
in
favor
of
any
particular
final
outcome
for
the
appeal.
That's
synthesizing,
a
lot
of
discussions
you've
had
before
well.
F
F
So
you
know,
in
that
case
you
know
we're
we're
comfortable
with
suggesting
either
a
seven
member
board,
full
full
time
board
or
a
five-member
board
with
two
alternates,
and
we
think
we
are
covered
well
under
both
those
scenarios.
So
who
are
just
throwing
that
out
to
our
colleagues
for
your
thoughts,
I
think.
F
A
A
C
They
could
even
I
mean
to
me
it's
more
like
jury
service,
where
you
have
an
alternate,
because
these
people
are
sitting
in
a
quasi-judicial
role,
they're
deciding
so
they
would
it's
a
good
point.
They
would
have
to
prepare
for
the
meeting
and
they'd
a
problem.
They'd
have
to
do
the
readings
and
they
might
have
to
attend
in
case
someone
is
sick
that
day,
I
think
that
they
would
part
fully
participate
as
alternates
or
we
could
they
could
rotate.
We
could
talk
about
a
cycle
where
you
rotate
who's.
C
The
alternate
for
those
meetings,
because
probably
one
person
doesn't
want
to
be
a
permanent
alternate
without
a
vote,
but
I
think
when
we
talked
about
and
we
asked
staff
to
bring
back
recommendations
for
changing
the
system,
and
so
we
had
worked
a
little
bit
about
that.
So
it
sounds
like
right
now.
I
think
I
definitely
support.
Thank
you
for
urgency,
moving
forward
quickly
on
appointing
these
people
and
then
I
think
we
need
to
have
the
larger
conversation
about
the
board
structure
and
how
many
people
would
be
there.
C
It's
an
important
conversation
because
for
due
process
we
talked
about
how
many
do
you
need
to
to
win
your
appeal
or
how
many
should
be
on
that
board.
Those
are
really
important
conversations
that
I
think
we
need
to
look
at
more
in
depth
before
we.
We
change
that.
So
do
we
have
a
timeline
so
we're
doing
this
now,
so
that
our
appeals
can
go
forward
and
then
what
are
we
doing
about
the
direction
to
change
the
system
in
some
way
or
assess
that.
H
You
raise
a
point:
I
mean
we.
We
we
believe
that
a
hearing
officer
is
a
better
route
to
go
a
better
model.
If
that's,
what
council
wants
us
to
go?
We
could
have
that
to
you
over
the
next
30
day,
30
to
60
days
and
then
and
then
we
recommend
we
go
forward
with
what
we
have
here.
We
start
getting
the
appeals
heard
of
what
we
have
on
the
books
and
and
then
at
some
point
down.
The
road
you'll
give
us
direction
on.
H
If
you
want
to
go
to
he
appeals
officer
or
in
the
alternative,
then,
if
you
don't
want
to
do
that,
you
may
want
to
say
increase
the
board
to
X
to
the
7.
So
we
may
not
want
to
do
an
ordinance
change
if
you're
gonna
change
the
structure,
or
at
least
have
that
discussion.
So
I
think
we
go
forward
here,
but
but
again
I'm
open
to
your
direct
shot.
That.
F
F
F
H
H
F
H
In
the
reason
that
might
not
be
a
problem
is
because,
most
times
when
we
go
to
set
up
the
meeting,
we
are
informed
whether
someone's
not
available.
It's
usually
not
that
they're
six,
so
we
know
in
advance.
So
then
we
could
call
the
alternates.
Oh
I,
don't
think
that
would
be
a
problem.
Okay
for
us
to.
F
And
so
we
will
bring
our
alternate
selections
to
the
next
meeting
and
that'll,
give
Councilwoman,
Middleton
and
I
an
opportunity
to
talk
again,
because
there
was
a
little
bit
of
a
shuffle
on
our
selections
because
of
people
who
actually
served
on
other
boards.
And
there
were
some
questions
so
that'll
give
us
an
opportunity
to
have
a
talk
and
bring
our
direction.
C
Then
to
answer
the
city
manager's
question,
so
I
do
think
we
should
bring
forward
at
least
a
discussion
item
about.
If
we
want
to
proceed
with
a
hearing
officer
which
was-
and
you
know
the
subcommittee's
recommendation
initially
or
if
we
want
to
continue
using
an
appeals
board
with
alternate
so
I
think
maybe
those
two
options.
Whatever
staff
recommends
and
then
we
can
decide
as
a
council.
A
A
Next
item
is
public
comment
and
non
agenda
items.
This
time
has
been
set
aside
for
members
of
the
public
to
address
the
City
Council
on
items
of
general
interests
within
the
subject
matter:
jurisdiction
of
the
city,
all
of
the
City
Council
values.
Your
comments,
pursuant
to
the
Brown
Act
generally,
cannot
take
any
action
on
items
Dauntless
on
the
posted
agenda.
Two
minutes
will
be
assigned
to
each
speaker.
Currently
we
have
three
people:
who've
requested
to
speak
first
Aled
worthy,
followed
by
edward
Hulse,
our
and
then
Yasmin
s,
Panozzo.
K
Ago,
I
guess
I
had
it
prevailed
at
this
ex
parte
hearing
on
my
condo
and
then
when
we
went
back,
I
did
not
prevail
and
the
city
is
culpable.
I
do
not
know
why
I
am
the
only
one
in
town
as
far
as
I
can
tell
whose
caregiver
and
these
grifters
have
been
prosecuted.
But
me,
okay,
but
we
know,
was
sergeant
matt
beards
report
clouding
the
system
which
we
have
never
discussed.
Mr.
Middleton,
the
other
problem
with
you
is
the
other
night
at
Moselle
Center.
You
said
you
have
these
witnesses
that
have
not
come
forward.
K
K
K
It
is
outrageous
that
I
have
been
fleeced
along
with
my
family
left
with
nothing
in
this
heaven
for
caregivers
from
hell.
Okay,
your
comments
that
Mizell
are
completely
inappropriate
and
not
even
accurate,
okay
and
it's
a
violation
of
euros
to
not
be
thinking
it
through
and
talking
to
me
that
way
and
or
making
statements
that
are
just
out
of
left
field.
It's
not
true.
You've
never
followed
up
on
it.
Okay,
I.
K
M
Good
evening
my
name
is
Edward
Holzhauer
and
I
live
in
Palm.
Desert
I
have
spoken
before
about
the
protections
of
sanctuary
city
status
in
the
past
and
I'm.
Here
again
this
evening
to
speak
to
you
on
this
same
issue.
As
you
know,
children
were
removed
from
their
families
and
detained
in
detention
centers.
It
has
been
reported
that
two
children
died
while
in
custody
here
in
the
United
States.
It
is
also
a
known
fact
that
these
are
the
only
two
that
had
been
reported
with.
M
Further
investigation
will
show
that
more
have
been
killed
by
harsh
treatment,
abuse
and
a
plain
lack
of
respect
for
humanity.
I
have
personally
been
to
San
Diego
to
see
this
disgraceful
treatment
of
human
beings.
The
administration
is
just
dumping
them
into
cities,
with
no
food,
no
money
and
no
resources.
These
families
have
a
short
window
to
get
to
their
sponsors
and
to
appear
for
their
court
dates
if
it
wasn't
for
the
kindness
of
American
citizens
who
have
realized
that
this
is
inhumane,
they
would
have
nothing
available
to
the
sanctuary.
City
is
not
just
political
words.
M
It's
saying
to
America
that
you
respect
humans,
my
husband
just
days
before
going
into
the
hospital
in
what
would
be
the
last
days
of
his
life,
saw
the
story
of
a
Guatemalan
girl
who
died
in
custody,
and
he
said
to
me
not
one:
more
of
my
sisters
will
die.
I
promised
him
that
I
will
do
everything
I
can
to
do
to
help
this,
as
well
as
the
other
issues,
a
resolution
declaring
Palm
Springs
sanctuary
City,
you
see
this
is
not
a
right
or
left
issue.
This
is
an
issue
of.
M
G
Evening,
City
Council,
the
reason
I
come
to
you
this
evening
is
I,
want
to
speak
about
sanctuary,
City
and
the
ordinance
we
are
living
in
a
different
hostile
time
we
are
experiencing
it.
I
am
one
of
the
volunteers
that
goes
down
to
the
San
Diego
border,
the
Tijuana
border,
and
now
we're
going
into
the
Mexicali
area
the
it
is.
This
asylum
seekers
have
now
come
into
Coachella
Valley
they're
here
now,
we've
been
doing
this
for
over
a
month
and
the
second
wave
has
just
hit
this
week.
G
They
are
here
and
with
the
sanctuary
city
ordinance
being
changed.
Not
only
will
you
be
protecting
the
asylum
seekers,
the
immigrants,
but
because
of
the
media
and
hostile
groups?
They
also
are
now
focusing
on
the
volunteers
that,
when
we
sign
up
for
these
sites,
we
go
on
to
a
certain
site
where
emailed
our
time
are
twelve
hours
shift.
So
we
can
go
in
and
take
donations
of
clothing
and
food
and
money,
and
we
find
out
that
this
gets
breach.
G
We're
not
allowed
our
cell
phones
or
photographs
be
taking
within
the
shelters
for
their
safety
and
for
our
safety.
We
really
stressed
that
the
city,
the
sanctuary
city
ordinance,
gets
revisited
we're
seeing
complications,
and
this
would
help
also
with
volunteers,
because
we
have
lost
volunteers
because
now
is
becoming
a
hostile
situation.
This
is
now
in
our
doorsteps.
G
I
am
also
signed
up
to
with
the
homeless,
counting
that's
going
to
be
happening
next
Tuesday
with
these
two
looming,
I
can
see
the
count
climbing.
This
is
a
whole
different,
ballgame,
I'm,
even
shocked
every
time,
I
go
what
happens
when
we
either
cross
into
Tijuana
or
on
the
San
Diego
side,
and
now
here
on
our
border
and
now
here
in
the
Coachella
Valley.
So
thank
you
for
your
time.
I
hope
you
reconsider
this.
Thank
you.
Thank.
A
A
C
California
is
now
a
sanctuary
state.
We've
done
everything
we
can.
We've
we've
signed
on
at
least
at
the
city
we've
signed
on
to
briefs
fighting
the
administration's
litigation
against
California,
but
at
their
request
and
in
honor
of
my
friend
Carlos
Pineda
I
would
like
to
move
that
the
City
Council
consider
a
resolution
about
our
sanctuary
status.
I
think
that
about
that
language
mattered
then
and
I
think
it
still
matters
now
to
tell
our
community
that
they're
safe,
so
I
would
like
to
have
the
council
consider
that
resolution
at
a
future
meeting.
D
D
A
Anything
else
seeing
none.
We
will
adjourn
to
closed
session,
but
we
are
turning
in
memory
of
Mayor
Greg,
Pettis,
Carol,
Channing
and
Kaye
Ballard,
three
friends
of
the
Coachella
Valley
in
our
city,
who,
unfortunately,
we've
lost
since
the
last
meeting.
So
with
that,
we
will
adjourn
to
closed
session
until
February
6
2019
at
6
o'clock
in
the
City
Council,
a
city
council
chamber
at
City
Hall.
Thank
you.
