Before
we
get
into
our
two
topics
than
the
special
meeting,
since
we
have
some
folks,
oh
viewing
us,
we
wanted
to
let
also
in
communicating
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
the
manager
in
just
a
second
that
the
county
manager
under
his
authority
and
director
of
emergency
services
and
in
consultation
with
the
Board
of
Supervisors
in
the
sheriff
of
San
Diego
County,
as
is
claiming
at
8:30
tonight,
a
curfew
for
tonight
and
tomorrow,
and
so
when
that
goes
through.
It
ends
at
5:00
a.m.
the
next
day.
City
manager.
Could
you
add
anything
to
us.
D
Mayor
I
think
you've
said
it
all.
There
is
a
curfew
beginning
tonight
at
8:30
p.m.
going
through
5:00
a.m.
that
same
curfew
will
be
in
effect
Wednesday
night,
beginning
at
8:30
p.m.
and
ending
at
5:00
a.m.
Thursday
morning.
It
is
in
order
to
protect
the
community
from
looting
in
any
potential
civil
unrest.
The
county
administrator
in
his
estate
in
his
statement,
mentioned
that
he
hopes
that
that
does
not
occur
and
all
the
protests
are
peaceful,
but
the
curfew
is
out
of
an
abundance
of
caution.
Given
the
civil
unrest
that
has
been
occurring
throughout
the
country.
A
It
is
also
occurring
whether
it's
in
San,
Mateo
and
other
jurisdictions,
Redwood
City,
the
same
is
occurring,
and
that
is
again
to
be
better
safe
than
sorry
and
it's
taking
precautions
and
want
to
ensure
the
community
that
the
city
staff
is
along
with
the
public
safety
personnel
are
following
it
maintaining
and
our
coming
up
with
plans
and
are
prepared
to
oversee
the
city
in
the
next
couple
days.
So
we
ask
for
your
support
as
well
and
be
mindful
of
the
current
view,
and
we
are
still
in
shelter
in
place
with
that.
A
E
So,
thank
you
so
much
good
evening.
Everyone
thank
you
so
much
for
other
per
tunity
to
speak
tonight
and
I'm
gonna
start
by
first
thinking,
florrum
Linda
Mason
for
an
amazing
job.
She
is
doing
in
San
Bruno.
As
a
city
council
member.
We
are
so
proud
of
her
for
everything
that
she's
doing
and
Thank
You
Linda
continue
doing
what
you're
doing
you
is
doing
an
superb
job,
then
I
want
to
actually
talk
about
Recology
because
of
Linda,
the
community
myself
and
the
chameleon
learned
that
the
Recology
has
not
met
half
of
the
contractor.
E
It
was
entered
24
years
ago
and
that
seemed
very
I
feel
it's
appalling
that
that
is
not
being
addressed
by
any
of
the
City
Council's
previously
that
we
have
to
wait
for
Linda
to
actually
informed
us
of
this
information
and
I
believe
that
hundred
can
be
void
if
Recology
does
not
actually
fulfill
its
heart.
So
I
hope
all
of
you
review
this
contract
and
enforce
part
of
the
contract
with
Recology.
E
Secondly,
I
want
to
say-
and
this
is
a
feedback
I-
was
appalled
when
I
saw
last
city
council
member
at
meeting
where
Linda
Mason
was
this
folded
and
represented
represented
at
the
third
grade
of
Greater
for
doing
her
job
I.
Don't
want
to
see
that
behavior
in
public,
you
guys
hold
a
city
council.
You
know
public
servant
jobs.
You
have
to
conduct
yourself
with
respect,
so
I
expect
moving
forward.
We
will
not
be
seeing
that
and
I
hope
that
you
all
respect
each
other.
E
F
Good
evening,
honorable
mayor
and
city
council
members
staff
and
the
never
going
to
be
watching
remotely
I
just
want
to
take
a
moment
to
remind
everyone
that
many
San
Bruno
shops
and
restaurants
are
open
for
business
and
really
need
our
support.
Now
more
than
ever.
So,
please
continue
to
shop,
local
and
dine
local
as
much
as
possible.
Also
when
dining
with
a
local
restaurant.
Your
best
option
to
ensure
that
the
restaurant
receives
maximum
revenue
from
your
visit
is
to
call
the
restaurant
directly
place
your
order
and
walk
bike
or
drive
over
to
pick
it
up.
F
G
G
We
had
a
last
moment
of
that
yesterday
and
front
of
City
Hall
I,
put
that
up
on
Facebook
and
a
thoroughly
expecting
I
get
two
or
three
people
out
there
with
me
waving
the
white
flag.
It
was
such
an
energetic
celebration.
I
was
very
happy
to
see
that
our
mayor,
Rico
Medina,
came
to
join
us.
He
was
there
for
a
good
amount
of
time.
So
thank
you
for
doing
that.
But
I
would
really
love
to
see
the
city
leading
for
my
head,
not
I
mean
not
even
falling
from
behind.
G
At
this
point,
we
have
all
our
neighboring
City
as
most
of
waving
the
flag,
doing
something
for
our
community
and
it
really
almost
shamed
me
to
be
the
one
speaking
at
the
steps.
I
think
it
should
have
been
our
mayor,
I
think
that
would
have
been
much
more
appropriate,
but
I
wanted
to
send
out
a
message
to
our
LGBT
community
and
any
anybody
else.
Who's
feels
excluded
anybody,
whatever
color
race,
and
so
thank
you.
People
like
Tom,
Hamilton,
Raina
and
Tim
Martin
Medina.
Everyone
who
joined
us
Andriana
Shay.
B
B
I
A
J
Evening,
mr.
mayor's
mayor
members
of
the
City
Council,
there's
no
PowerPoint
for
this,
so
we're
guaranteed
that
nothing
will
go
wrong
with
the
PowerPoint.
So
this
item
has
been
brought
to
you
because
we
did
not
know
before
May
31st
whether
the
governor
was
going
to
reestablish
the
authority
of
local
agencies
to
adopt
a
residential
and
commercial
eviction
moratorium
and
so
in
anticipation
that
the
governor
might
or
might
not
do,
that.
We
wanted
to
put
this
item
and
agendize
it
for
the
very
first
public
meeting
after
May
31st,
which
is
tonight
on
June
2nd.
J
So
when
we
wrote
the
staff
report
we
did
not
know
and
when
it
was
finalized.
We
didn't
know
whether
the
governor
was
going
to
extend
that
authorization
or
not.
It
turns
out
that
the
governor
did
extend
that
authorization
on
May
28th
and
that
authorization
for
cities
to
either
extend
or
re-adopt
and
urgency
ordinance
like
this
one
has
now
been
extended
to
July
28th.
J
J
The
the
city
is
not
aware
of
any
particular
instances
where
commercial
tenants
may
or
may
not
have
taken
advantage
of
the
ordinance,
but
the
city
wouldn't
necessarily
be
be
notified
of
those
things,
since
that's
a
private
transaction
between
the
commercial
tenant
and
the
commercial
landlord,
but
nevertheless
we
thought
it
was
prudent
to
be
proactive
and
come
to
you
with
an
ordinance
like
this.
In
case
the
governor
decided
to
rheic
sten
that
authorization.
J
The
final
point
is
that
there,
if
the
City
Council
does
decide
to
re-adopt
the
ordinance,
there's
not
going
to
be
any
gap
in
coverage
between
the
expiration
of
the
first
ordinance
and
this
one,
and
that's
because
this
ordinance
is
applicable
to
all
non
expired
notices
of
eviction
as
of
May
31st.
So
it
covers
the
the
time
May
31st
when
that
first
ordinance
expired
and
then,
if
adopted
tonight
as
recommended,
would
go
all
the
way
through
to
July
28th.
So
that
concludes
my
report.
A
H
B
B
B
A
J
J
Thank
you
again
so
this
evening
the
title
of
the
report
is
commercial,
cannabis,
ballot
measure
and,
unfortunately,
I
see
that
my
clicker
does
not
appear
to
be
working.
So
if
you
can
just
give
me
whoops
there,
it
goes
all
right.
Let's
just
try
it
and
make
sure
it
works
all
right.
So
far
so
good,
you
don't
seem
to
be
having
a
bad
experience
with
these
things,
so
thanks
Devon
for
the
for
that
sure
all
right
well
tonight.
This
is
our
agenda.
We're
going
to
review
the
legal
landscape
surrounding
a
potential
cannabis
ordinance
ballot
measure.
J
Clicker
is
not
working.
We're
going
to
review
what
other
cities
in
San,
Mateo
County
have
done,
and
their
particular
outcomes
we're
going
to
discuss
the
features
of
a
potential
ballot
measure
and
potential
next
steps
for
possibly
putting
a
ballot
measure
on
the
November
2020
ballot
and
then
provide
direction
to
staff.
So
that's
our
agenda
for
this
evening.
So
let's
take
a
couple
of
minutes
and
quickly
review
the
current
legal
landscape
and
that
consists
of
sort
of
three
main
topic
areas,
first
of
all,
the
federal
government.
J
So
if
some
of
us
may
know
under
federal
law,
cannabis
still
remains
a
controlled
substance
that
is
illegal
to
possess
or
sell
in
certain
quantities.
However,
under
state
law,
proposition
64
was
adopted
by
majority
of
the
voters
on
November,
8th
2016,
and
that
proposition
allowed
a
variety
of
uses
in
the
state
of
California.
J
So
let's
just
quickly
go
through
those,
so
that
allows
recreational
use,
possession
purchase,
sale
or
distribution
allows
indoor
cultivation
of
up
to
six
plants
for
personal
use
and
indicates
that
if
you
have
a
commercial
cannabis
activity,
that's
subject
to
getting
a
state
license
prop
64
also
did
allow
cities
to
regulate
or
prohibit.
Some
are
all
commercial
cannabis
activities.
So,
while
the
state
authorized
it,
it
did
allow
cities
to
restrict
or
regulate
those
activities
and
then
finally,
prop
64
imposed
excise
and
sales
taxes
totaling
about
22
percent,
and
so
one
question
we
had
was
well.
J
J
So
let's
take
a
look
and
see
what
are
the
issues
for
discussion
this
evening,
and
this
is
coming
to
you,
because
at
the
end
of
April,
the
City
Council
requested
a
study
session
about
placing
a
cannabis
measure
on
the
November
2020
ballot.
So
what
did
we
do
to
respond
to
that?
We
did
some
research
and
we
requested
information
from
consultants,
because
we're
not
all
experts
on
everything,
unfortunately,
and
the
staff
report
that
you
see
in
front
of
you
was
contributed
to
by
at
least
five
city
departments.
J
So
one
one
question
I've
been
asked
anyway
is
well:
how
much
time
did
this
staff
report
taken?
How
much
time
have
you
spent
on
this
and
the
answer
was
sort
of
surprising
when
we
tallied
it
all
up
so
so
far
through
this
evening,
staff
collectively
spent
about
75
hours
in
preparing
the
staff
report
and
that
might
provoke
a
number
of
reactions
what
one
of
them
might
be
well,
why
did
you
spend
so
much
time
on
this
staff
report?
You
know
what
wasn't
it
easier
than
that
and
the
answer
really
is:
no.
You
know.
J
Staff
is
here
to
provide
you
with
the
absolutely
best
professional
advice
we
can.
We
don't
always
get
it
right.
We
sometimes
make
mistakes,
hopefully
not
very
often,
but
this
is
a
sort
of
interdepartmental
effort
that
is
not
just
the
purview
of
one
particular
department,
and
you
know
we
did
spend
a
lot
of
time
vetting
the
information.
That's
in
the
report.
J
So
let's
take
a
look
at
what
the
20
San
Mateo
County
jurisdictions
have
done,
and
there
is
you
know,
19
cities
and
the
county
of
San
Mateo.
So
let's
take
a
look
so
just
a
review.
We
have
nine
cities,
including
San
Bruno,
that
currently
prohibit
all
commercial
cannabis
activities,
and
you
can
read
the
list
on
the
on
the
screen
over
there.
There's
a
variety
of
communities
with
you
know,
somewhat
diverse
populations.
J
We
have
two
cities
in
the
county
that
prohibit
all
commercial
cannabis
activities,
except
for
distribution
within
their
boundaries,
and
so
what
does
that
actually
entail?
So
we
dug
a
little
bit
deeper
and
what
we
learned
from
HDL
was
that
they're
actually
about
eighty-five
entities
that
are
distributing
cannabis
without
state
or
local
licenses
or
permits
that
are
supplying
the
needs
of
the
residents
in
San
Mateo
County.
J
J
These
distributions
are
occurring,
especially
that
because
there's
no
license
or
a
permit
for
them,
so
a
distribution
our
consultants
have
indicated
is
not
is
not
an
activity
that,
if
we,
if
the
city
or
if
a
city
were
to
permit,
would
generate
any
any
real
tax
revenue
all
right.
So
that's
11
cities
in
the
county,
and
then
we
have
eight
cities
that
have
actually
adopted
ballot
measures
to
tax
and/or
regulate.
J
You
know
various
sorts
of
cannabis
activities,
so
let's
take
just
a
second
and
go
through
in
summary,
what
those
are
so
we
have
taxes
that
those
cities
have
adopted,
ranging
from
two
and
a
half
to
ten
percent.
So
why
is
there
such
a
big
range?
And
the
answer
is
that
there's
actually
a
larger
range
than
that?
It's
it's
even
more
complicated.
Some
of
the
city's
attacks
per
per
ounce
per
pound
per
plant
per
something
the
the
range
from
two
and
a
half
to
ten
depends
on
what
kind
of
business
it
is.
J
J
So
what
sort
of
regulations
might
there
be
and
those
really
fall
into
zoning
and
permitting
so
an
example
of
a
zoning
regulation
would
be
to
say
that
the
businesses
can
only
be
a
certain
distance
away,
can
only
be
from
schools
or
parks
or
other
uses.
Another
example
of
a
zoning
regulation
could
be
that
there
they
might
be
limited
in
in
some
way
and
then
permitting
regulations
are
usually
detailed
regulations
regarding
how
those
businesses
are
supposed
to
be
operating.
J
So
what
we
also
discovered
when
we
went
back
and
looked
at
the
staff
reports
for
those
cities,
is
that
the
the
revenue
that
those
cities
expected
to
generate
at
the
time
that
they
either
adopted
a
regulation
or
put
a
tax
on
on
the
ballot
ranged
somewhere
between
a
hundred
thousand
to
1.5
million
dollars.
It
just
sort
of
depended
on
what
they
were
interested
in
doing
and
what
the
tax
rate
was
for
certain
activities.
J
The
other
city
that
reported
revenues
was
South,
San
Francisco,
which
was
under
all
we
could
get
from
them,
is
under
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
since
January
of
last
year.
So
we
we
weren't
able
to
get
any
more
information
about
their
activities,
so
those
are
the
two
that
have
generated
any
revenue
at
all.
So
that
was
actually
quite
surprising
to
me
and
everybody
else
on
our
team,
and
so
we
asked
why
and
what
our
consultants
told
us.
These
are
the
HDL,
the
ones
that
that
helped
all
those
cities
adopt.
J
Those
ballot
measures
is
that
there
are
really
barriers
to
entry
for
new
businesses
in
in
this
industry
and
what
are
those
barriers
to
entry?
So
the
first
one
is
permit
fees
and
costs
that
are
imposed
by
cities.
So
it's
part
of
you
know
a
regulatory,
a
permitting
measure.
The
city
would
establish
a
fee
for
reviewing
and
processing
an
application,
and
those
costs
can
be
somewhat
high,
because
these
applications
are
not
necessarily
easy
to
to
review
and
they
take
a
lot
of
time.
J
The
second
barrier
to
entry
into
the
business,
if
you're
a
new
cannabis
business,
is
that
the
city
may
have
levied
a
tax
and
that
tax
is
over
and
above
the
state
tax
which,
as
you
saw
on
the
prior
slide,
is
22%.
So
any
taxes
above
that
or
additional
taxes
that
the
business
would
have
to
pay
another
barrier
to
entry
is
I
think
what
we
would
call
a
lack
of
a
stable
banking
option.
So,
a
couple
of
years
ago,
I
think
it
was.
J
There
was
a
really
comprehensive
report
that
was
prepared
to
the
California
Legislature
about
establishing
some
sort
of
stable
banking
options
in
the
state
of
California
and
at
the
end
of
the
report
it
was
about
a
hundred
pages
I
remember,
reading
through
it
the
the
conclusion
was
it'll
have
to
be
studied
further
and
will
take
action
by
the
legislature.
So
I
am
Not
sure
that
anything
has
really
happened
about
that,
but
that
was
one
barrier
to
entry
that
were
identified
by
our
expert
consultants.
J
The
other
thing
we
don't
want
to
forget
about
that.
Our
consultants
told
us
is,
there
still
remains
a
really
robust
underground
economy,
and
why
is
that?
Well,
we
saw
the
85
delivery.
Businesses
that
aren't
licensed
or
permitted,
but
also
those
businesses
is
even
if
their
retail,
for
example,
really
are.
You
know
they
they
don't
have
to
they've
got
to
pay
taxes,
so
the
underground
businesses
do
not
have
to
pay
taxes,
and,
as
a
result
of
that,
presumably
they
can
there's
enough
money
there
for
them
to
stay
in
business.
J
We
also
were
told
that
investment
dollars
are
dwindling,
some
of
those
investment
dollars.
In
fact,
many
of
those
dollars
come
from
various
places
overseas
and
those
monies
to
fund
cannabis.
Businesses
in
California,
at
least
in
California,
are
not
as
available
as
they
used
to
be,
and
then
what
we
were
also
told
is
that,
in
essence,
only
retail
of
cannabis
operations
generate
significant
direct
revenue
for
cities,
so
many
of
the
other
things
like
manufacturing
or
cultivation,
or
testing,
or
other
things
like
that
or
distribution.
As
we
saw
they,
they
don't
generate
a
significant
direct
revenue.
B
J
Then
finally,
we
were
told
specifically
with
respect
to
Pacifica
that
their
businesses
existed
previously,
so
they
were
legacy
businesses
that,
in
essence,
did
not
have
some
of
these
barriers
to
entry
that
new
businesses
would
have,
and
so
that's
how
HDL
explained
to
staff
why
only
two
out
of
eight
cities
have
actually
collected
any
revenue
from
operating
businesses.
So
there
we
were
not
able
to
locate
any
operating
cannabis
businesses
in
that
we're
licensed
in
any
places
other
than
Pacifica
and
South
San
Francisco.
J
So
that's
one
thing
a
ballot
measure
could
contain.
Second
thing
about
measure
could
contain,
is
some
sort
of
regulation
and
we've
talked
about
zoning
or
permitting
before
so?
For
those
voter
approval
actually
is
not
legally
required.
That's
something
that
the
City
Council
could
do
on
their
own,
or
the
City
also
could,
by
majority
vote
place
a
regulatory
ordinance
on
the
ballot
if
they
desired.
J
There
are
a
couple
of
caveats
that
we
heard
from
our
consultant,
and
the
first
caveat
was
to
be
careful
because
if
you
put
a
regulatory
measure
on
the
ballot,
the
voters
might
not
approve
something
that
generates
revenue
and
that's
exactly
what
happened
in
Half
Moon
Bay,
so
their
City
Council
decided
to
put
a
variety
of
measures
on
the
ballot
to
see
what
the
voters
wanted
and
it
turns
out.
The
voters
didn't
want
retail
and
that's
really
the
only
thing
that
generates
revenue,
so
Half
Moon
Bay
thought
they
would
get
growers
they
would
get
cultivation.
J
The
other
caveat
about
a
regulatory
measure
is,
it
does
require
substantial
work
to
develop,
and
somebody
might
ask
well
why
can't
you
just
copy
what
some
other
city
did,
especially
one
of
the
successful
ones,
and
so
there's
two
answers
to
that.
The
first
is
that
there's
only
been
two
successful
cities
and
of
those
two
one
of
them
already
have
these
businesses.
So
it's
not
exactly
clear
whether
their
regulatory
ordinance
really
really
makes
any
difference.
So
it's
not
exactly
clear
what
what
one
should
should
emulate,
but
also
those
ordinances
are
really
specific
to
that
particular
city.
J
J
J
First
off
what
the
city
has
done
before
is
to
do
some
polling
and
then
develop
a
measure
around
what
Garner's
public
support,
and
this
has
previously
been
done
by
the
city
for
its
last
two
successful
ballot
measures.
Another
possibility
is
to
use
in
other
cities
ordinance,
and
we've
talked
a
little
bit
about
that.
That
does
require
work,
to
modify
and
to
make
sure
that
it's
consistent
with
the
city
of
San,
Bruno's
goals
and
desires.
J
The
City
Council
could
certainly
provide
some
specific
direction
to
staff
and,
finally,
the
city
could
retain
experts
to
assist
with
drafting
that
measure
and
we've
you've
seen
attached
to
the
staff
report.
If
you
have
a
comprehensive
proposal
from
HDL
which
we'll
talk
about
in
just
a
couple
minutes,
so
those
are
some
of
the
potential
or
possible
next
steps
and
here's
some
more.
So
the
next
question
to
ask
yourself
is
what
level
of
tax
would
be
appropriate
and
how
are
we
going
to
figure
that
out
so
there's
a
couple
of
ways
to
do
this.
J
One
way
is
to
say
well
we'll
just
charge
the
hottest
of
what
everybody
charges
so
10%
Daly
City
and
San
Carlos,
or
we
could
say.
Well,
we
don't
want
to
do
that.
We
can
charge
the
lowest,
which
is
two
and
a
half
for
Half
Moon
Bay
and
San
Mateo,
at
least
for
some
of
the
commercial
activities,
or
we
could
pick
another
rate.
J
South
San
Francisco
says
5%
Brisbane
says
6%,
so
it
could
be
any
any
one
of
those
another
option
is
you
could
set
a
relatively
low
rate,
but
then
give
the
City
Council
discretion
to
raise
it.
That's
actually
something
that
Pacifica
does,
which
we
thought
was
interesting.
It
starts
at
a
6%
rate
initially
and
then
the
City
Council
was
authorized
to
raise
it
by
the
ballot
measure
to
10%
and
that
worked
in
Pacifica.
J
All
right,
let's
talk
just
a
little
more
about
a
couple
of
other
possible
steps
to
put
a
ballot
measure
on
so
one
question
we
always
ask
ourselves
is:
should
the
city
provide
information
to
the
community
about
a
ballot
measure
and
the
city
has
certainly
done
so?
In
the
last
two
successful
ballot
measures
we've
held
public
meetings,
staff
presentations
to
the
community
and
mailers
providing
information.
J
The
other
thing
the
City
Council
may
want
to
consider
is
the
effect
of
a
potential
cannabis
measure
on
a
potential
t,
ot
tax
measure.
Sorry,
that's
a
duplication
of
words.
I
apologize,
I
just
saw
that
t
ot
is
transient
occupancy
tax
so
on
a
potential
t,
ot
measure,
and
so
that's
that's
one
thing
that
we
might
want
to
get
some
elections,
consulting
advice
about
to
make
sure
that
we
don't
have
things
working
at
cross-purposes.
J
So
what
would
placing
a
potential
ballot
measure
on
cost
and
there's
really
quite
a
variation
here
and
we
apologize
it's
difficult
to
sort
of
pin
the
numbers
down,
because
we
don't
really
know
what
direction
the
City
Council
would
would
like
staff
to
take.
But
here
are
some
estimates,
so
we
do
know
from
past
experience
that
polling
costs
about
$30,000.
J
So
if
you
want
to
find
out
what
the
residents
would
like
in
terms
of
or
not
in
terms
of
cannabis
activities,
conducting
a
poll
is
one
way
to
find
that
out
and
in
that
certainly
cost
some
money,
there's
also
a
potential
additional
cost
for
election.
Consulting
that's
separate
depending
on
what
the
ballot
issue
is.
So
you
know-
and
this
goes
back
to
the
point
we
made
earlier
about
possible
conflict
with
a
with
a
Tod
measure.
We
might
want
to
get
some
consulting
advice
about.
J
Is
it
a
good
idea
to
have
you
know
two
tax
measures
on
a
ballot?
Potentially,
you
have
in
front
of
you
in
the
staff
report
sort
of
a
report
for
comprehensive
services
by
HDL
we
reached
out
to
them
because
they're
they're,
one
of
the
premier
firms
in
the
industry.
That
knows
a
lot
about
cannabis
and
knows
a
lot
about
cannabis
on
the
peninsula
and
in
particular
in
San
Mateo
County.
J
J
But
if
the
City
Council
is
going
to
direct
staff
to
put
a
regulatory
or
Zoning
measure
on
the
ballot,
we
would
want
to
make
sure
that
we
have
all
of
those
things
buttoned
up
and
the
GIS
Services
is
likely
going
to
be
necessary
to
figure
out.
If
there
are
cannabis
uses
around
other
sensitive
uses,
sensitive
land
uses,
so
we
need
to
do
some
mapping
to
figure
out
where
those
uses
are,
and
if
it's
you
know,
500
feet
away
or
a
thousand
feet
away,
or
or
whatever.
J
We
need
to
determine
that,
so
there
there
may
be
cost
for
that.
We
know
from
past
experience
that
sending
informational,
mailers
cost
about
$8,000
a
mailer.
We
know
from
the
City
Clerk's
office
that
election
costs
to
add
one
measure
to
the
ballot
or
one
additional
measure
to
the
ballot
is
about
seven
to
eleven
thousand
dollars,
and
we've
also
estimated
that
staff
time
would
be
about
50
to
150
hours
of
time,
depending
on
what
the
ballot
measure
is.
So
why
such
a
big
range
and
at
the
low
end,
that
would
be
something
for
a
you
know.
J
A
very
simple
tax
measure,
for
example,
with
no
regulatory
measure
at
all
on
the
higher
end,
would
be
a
more
complicated
tax
measure
and
a
regulatory
measure,
because
those
are
really
cross,
departmental
efforts
and
in
fact
all
of
them
are
but
I
think
there
would
be
much
more
effort
involved
in
putting
on
both
attacks
and
a
regulatory
measure
as
well.
If
the
City
Council
decided
only
to
put
a
regulatory
measure
on
the
ballot
for
whatever
reason,
the
time
would
also
be
on
the
higher
end
of
that,
because
that's
that's
really.
J
A
Thank
you,
City
Attorney,
and
what
I
think
I'd
like
to
do
in
case
folks
want
to
comment
and
then
depart
if
they
have
something
they
need
to
do.
I'd
like
to
go
ahead
and
open
it
to
of
a
comment
first.
So
if
you
are
interested,
if
you
and
the
city
clerk
will
guide
you,
but
if
you
would
raise
your
hand
in
the
forum.
B
L
L
So
the
problem
that
I
core
see
beyond
the
fact
that
when
you
look
at
statistics,
that's
one
out
of
eight
cities
that
have
poured
all
this
money
into
getting
this
passed
and
approved,
and
that
is
a
pretty
lousy
rate
of
success.
When
I
look
at
it.
The
second
problem
that
I
see
is
when
you
look
at
the
cities
that
have
approved
that
you've
got
the
legacy
City
Pacifica
and
the
reason
that
they're
successful,
as
obviously
as
you
said,
they've
had
this
legacy
cannabis
already.
L
In
place,
and
also
you
have
to
look
at,
you
know
the
location
that
sort
of
has
the
same
reputation
in
Santa
Cruz,
so
that's
understandable
as
to
why
it
has
been
semi
successful.
But
then,
when
you
also
look
at
South
City,
there
they're
not
successful,
and
you
have
to
ask
yourself
well:
why
is
that?
And
why
has
it
not
translated
into
any
revenue?
L
So
the
problem
that
I
foresee
then
is
if
we
spend
this
money
which
just
ballparking
looking
at
the
numbers
that
you
put
out
there
is
about
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
is
the
first
problem
that
I
see
is
the
location
of
San
Bruno.
If
we
were
further
down
the
peninsula,
say
Redwood
City
I
could
understand.
Maybe
we
have
a
location
advantage.
You
don't
have
that
because
the
people
that
are
going
to
go
and
get
their
cannabis
are
probably
going
to
go
to
the
legacy
City
Pacifica
or
they
probably
go
to
the
established
City
South
San
Francisco.
L
So
you
got
to
ask
yourself
when
you're
looking
at
this.
Why
would
people
necessarily
buy
cannabis
from
San
Bruno
and
why?
What
is
gonna
make
San
Bruno
stand
out?
Are
we
a
destination
city
for
cannabis?
In?
Do
we
have
the
reputation
for
cannabis
like
Santa,
Cruz
or
Pacifica?
Do
we
have
the
beach
access
I?
L
Don't
see
us
having
any
of
that
so
I'd
hate
to
see
that's
poor,
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
into
a
proposition
that
is
gonna
result
in
the
revenue
that
South
City
is
generating.
So
that's,
that's
all
I'm
saying
is
locations
against
us
and
the
fact
that
you
only
have
one
city
that
is
non
legacy
and,
in
my
opinion,
it's
a
total
failure.
Thank
you.
Thank.
B
M
B
M
Yeah,
thank
you
for
your
time.
Look
I,
just
as
a
San,
Bruno
resident
I'll
be
quite
forthright
with
you
I'm
one
of
the
millions
of
Californians
who
actually
voted
to
recreationally
legalize
marijuana
in
that
state
and
I
have
been
in
San
Bruno
now.
For
some
time,
I
see
the
amazing
potential
that
that
city
has
to
be
at
the
forefront
of
something
rather
than
behind
something
I'm,
particularly
passionate
about
this
issue.
Look,
let
me
give
you
some
of
my
own
demographics
to
set
the
stage
I'm
39
years
old
I
have.
M
I
have
young
kids
that
are
going
to
be
going
to
public
schools
here
in
San,
Bruno
I
use
cannabis,
recreationally
and
I'm,
not
ashamed
of
that
and
frankly,
the
idea
that
cannabis
is
something
that
should
be
treated
as
different,
somehow
than
pretty
much
any
other
business.
That
brings
in
facts
revving
revenue
to
the
city
and
he
seems
a
little
ridiculous
as
an
adult
who's.
Paying
taxes
in
the
city
I
want
to
see
a
business
here.
They
can
thrive.
You
know
for
the
prior
commenter
I
would
say
that
San
Bruno
absolutely
can
be
a
destination.
M
I
right
now
either
get
deliveries
from
San
Francisco.
So
then,
Francisco
you're
welcome
for
my
tax
revenue
for
San
Jose
you're.
Welcome
for
my
tax
revenue,
San
Bruno,
not
getting
my
tax
revenue
and
I'd
be
happy
gladly
to
give
my
revenue
to
San
Bruno
I'm
also
willing
to
invest
in
the
idea
of
recreational
cannabis
in
San
Bruno.
If
it's
done
correctly,
if
it's
done
responsibly,
if
all
of
the
things
that
that
need
to
happen
so
that
you
know
our
community
thrives
instead
of
is
harmed
by
the
potential
for
recreational
cannabis,
I
just
think.
F
M
It
feels
like
we
are
stuck
in
this
very
outdated
notion
of
what
it
means
to
be
a
San
Bruno
resident
here
in
San
Fernando.
We
have
nothing
but
potential.
We
have
the
airport
right.
Next
to
it.
There
are
people
who
fly
to
Colorado
right
now,
get
off
the
plane
and
Denver
Airport
and
go
immediately
to
the
nearest
recreational
cannabis,
cannabis
ability.
So
why
can't
we
do
that?
You
know
the
idea
that
santa
cruz
is,
you
know
somehow
a
destination.
I
mean,
I
understand
it,
but
it
doesn't
have
to
be
that
way.
M
B
B
C
C
B
I
Right
one
I'd
like
to
heavily
agree
with
what
Josh
said:
the
huge
opportunity
and
I
forgot
for
Lexie
you
compared
saying
that
South
City
well,
the
numbers
are
obviously
terrible,
but
if
anyone
did
any
research
on
the
dispensary
in
South
City,
it's
not
the
greatest
and
their
demographics
are
not
compared
to
San
Bruno.
It's
the
industrial
street
for
every
industrial
city
for
a
reason,
there's
not
the
biggest
community.
They
don't
have.
You
know
they
don't
have
cemetery
labs.
They
don't
got
the
Basil's
as
much
you
know.
I
So
what
I'm
saying
is
I
think
it
would
be
a
great
opportunity.
It's
open
up
at
least
one
or
two
shops
in
San
Bruno,
and
do
what
Pacifica
did
making
a
deal
on
the
texts
like
yeah.
We
could
start
off
as
7.5
ending
how
well
it
does
or
how
bad
it
does.
You
increase
it
or
decrease
it,
and
you
ought
to
think
of
the
demographics
of
this
because
well,
it's
beach
everyone's
going
there
to
relax.
I
If
there's
a
club
down
the
street
near
Rockaway
Beach,
it's
super
convenient,
there's
no
clubs
anywhere
south
of
San
Francisco
or
north
of
San
Jose.
So
this
is
a
huge
site-specific,
obviously
so
there's
only
a
small
handful
and
for
them
to
pull
in
$500,000
in
a
year,
just
for
only
four
dispensaries
is
huge
if
we
threw
in
at
least
a
couple
in
San
Bruno
we're
getting
all
the
sister
cities
that
have
to
travel
all
the
way
to
San
Jose,
all
the
way
to
San
Francisco
they're,
paying
super
tax
dollar
on
the
deliveries
like
30%.
I
On
top
that
it's
almost
a
given
opportunity
that
we
can
pull
in
so
much
more
money
for
the
city
and
then
the
85
deliveries
that
you
mentioned
in
the
PowerPoint
I
actually
know
where
those
come
from
they're.
The
mobile
dispensaries
that
are,
that
you
basically
have
to
own
like
an
office
space
to
run
out
of
and
if
anyone's
familiar
with
weed
maps
put
in
your
zip
code
on
read,
maps
and
you'll,
see
how
many
dispensaries
are
see.
Embraer
know,
there's
like
30,
mil
Brahe,
there's,
probably
like
40,
that
of
Burlingame
South
City.
I
It's
the
same
amount
of
numbers,
so
I
think
it
would
be
a
completely
missed
opportunity
to
not
at
least
consider
putting
it
on
I
know
it's
a
good
amount
of
money
that
the
city
could
use,
but
you
know
you
invest
it
properly.
It
should
be
a
great
turnaround
and
I've
been
a
part
of
the
legal
farm
for
the
past
four
years
in
Mendocino
and
last
year
we
pulled
in
three
million
dollars
harvest.
I
N
Hi
this
is
people
it's
pronounced,
like
people,
but
with
the
V
people.
Okay,
thank
you
noise.
So
my
name
is
people
day
all
a
good
evening
mayor
vice
mayor,
distinguished
City,
Council
members
and
staff.
My
name
is
V
pol
and
my
family
has
owned.
The
Days
Inn
were
formerly
Days
Inn.
Now
it's
hotel
1550
here
in
San
Bruno,
since
July
2006.
We
currently
have
about
eight
hotels
in
our
portfolio
Wi-Fi.
Now
how
about
to
start
our
15
business
this
year,
which
is
a
day
care.
N
We
also
have
our
own
501
C
3
charity
as
well
as
we
also
own
25%
of
a
cannabis
delivery
company,
that's
headquartered
out
of
San
Diego
and
so
to
me.
You
know
this
decision
is
is
simple.
We
should
take
this
as
as
a
business
decision,
which
means
and
I
mean,
like
an
ROI
type
decision.
Like
return
on
investment
to
me,
why
not
spend
X
in
order
to
get
two
three
four
times
more
down
the
line.
N
So
the
first
thing
I
want
to
discuss
is
the
taxes
that
the
revenues
at
San
Diego
that
we
give
to
San
Diego.
We
usually
average
about
25,000
to
35,000
a
month
in
taxes
that
we
give
to
the
city
of
San
Diego
now
now
keep
in
mind
that
the
city
of
San
Diego
limits
its
dispensary
licenses
to
only
40,
so
we
are
just
one
out
of
40
that
gives
up.
N
You
know
it
gives
that
money
to
the
city
I
think
we
could
give
Pacifica
type
numbers
and
when
I
say
that,
because,
if
approved,
you
know,
there's
no
other
cities
besides
San
Cisco,
that's
around
us
and
we
get
all
those
revenues
from
from
those
cities.
Those
surrounding
cities
into
San
Bruno-
and
the
second
point
I
want
to
make-
is
that
you
know,
as
Joshua
mentioned,
San
Bruno
is
closed.
Just
as
close
to
the
airport.
To
me,
I
know
that
tourism
will
go
up,
which
means
answering
money
like
Tod
money.
N
The
city
will
get
I
can
see
restaurant
sales
going
going
up.
You
know
what
I
envision
happening
is
that
people
going
to
get
off
the
airport
they're
gonna,
stop
off
at
San,
Bruno
they're
gonna
pick
up
their
stuff
and
they're
gonna
go
to
wherever
their
destination
is
right
and
then
the
third
thing,
probably
the
most
important
thing
that
I
want
to
mention,
is
look
it's
it's.
The
fact
is
that
city
is
gonna,
lose
a
business
after
kovin.
It's
a
fact.
It's
gonna
happen
all
over
right,
which
means
loss
of
revenue
for
the
city.
N
So
why
not
in
the
question
that
we
need
to
ask
is
why
would
a
city
not
want
to
have
a
business
that
is
recession-proof?
Our
sales
went
up
in
March
and
April.
Just
to
give
you
a
just
to
give
you
an
example,
so
I'm
offered
to
study
all
four
sorry
to
put
the
Ballad
know
in
November.
Thank
you
very
much
for
your
time.
B
O
O
Stop
off
here
to
grab
a
little
to
use
while
they're
visiting
you
know
for
somebody's
coming
in
for
even
a
business
meeting
they
want
to
take
the
edge
off
in
the
evening
the
same
way
somebody
else
might
have
a
drink,
so
you
know
like
it
just
seems
completely
silly,
and
you
know
the
hundredth
hundred
thousand
dollars
of
revenue
in
18
months.
Well,
I
mean
how
much
tax
revenue
do
you
get
from
one
liquor
store
or
one
tobacconist
I?
Think
it's
completely
reasonable
for
us
to
start
small.
O
You
know
license
one
or
two
businesses
in
town
maybe
allow
for
one
or
two
research,
businesses
or
production
businesses
as
well.
You
know
we
can.
We
can
limit
it,
and
we
can
always
revisit
that
later.
We
can
write
the
ballot
measure
to
allow
the
City
Council
to
make
that
kind
of
determination.
If
we
want
further
loosen
restrictions
later-
and
you
know
start
something
up-
see
how
it
goes
for
a
few
years-
I
think
that
just
diversifying
our
revenue
streams
makes
sense,
so
I
hope
this
will
be
on
the
ballot.
This
fall
thank.
M
My
name
is
Quinton
J
I
own,
the
wine
and
spirits
shop
in
Millbrae,
Bacchus
wine
and
spirits
located
inside
a
PV
company
I've
been
in
the
community
for
the
shops
and
opened
for
six
years
and
and
then
probably
in
the
community,
about
410
living
here
in
this
local
area.
You
know,
I,
think
that
one
of
the
things
that
people
need
to
you
know
that
I
think
people
respect
about
the
shop
is
that
you
know
how
responsible
we
are
in.
M
I'm.
Definitely
believer
that.
You
know
in
one
of
my
trips
to
Colorado.
I
was
just
amazed
by
some
of
the
statistics
and
numbers
about
the
travel
and
how
you
know
how
close
we
are
to
the
airport
but
Millbrae
and
definitely
San
Bruno,
and
how
there's
a
lot
of
sort
of
you
know,
people
that
are
traveling
in
and
out
back
and
forth.
That
could
be
potential
customers,
so
you
know,
and
it's
something
that
I
would
personally
you
know,
invest
my
money
into
as
a
business
here
in
in
San
Bruno.
So
that's
why
I'm
joining
this?
M
F
Yep,
yes,
I,
just
I
wanted
to
most
of
what
I
want
to
say
has
been,
as
Ben
said
already
so
I'll
just
hit.
The
points
that
haven't
been
San
Bruno
is
much
easier
to
reach
from
neighboring
cities
than
Pacifica
is
a
counter.
A
point
from
earlier.
We've
got
two
major
freeways
running
through
plus
the
airport
plus
mass
transit
adjacent
or
downtown.
So
it's
gonna
drive
a
lot
of
traffic
for
folks
who
would
be
driving
up
the
peninsula
to
San
Francisco
or
making
a
left
to
go
over
the
hill
to
to
to
Pacifica
I
echo
mr.
F
Froines
wish
that
our
Sam
gonna
be
a
leader
on
this
issue
rather
than
a
follower
in
the
in
the
packet
and
in
the
presentation,
I
questioned
why
the
sequel
analysis
would
be
needed
up
front.
Isn't
that
something
that
you
would
do
once
a
potential
applicant
selects
a
site,
because
you
can't
do
a
sequin
Ellis
unless
you
know
where
you're
gonna
do
it,
that
fee
is
likely
something
that
we
could
recoup
from
the
applicant
either
partially
or
perhaps
even
in
full.
So
it's
it
didn't
seem
appropriate
to
have
that
fee.
F
Lastly,
even
if
we
were
to
match
those
conservative
estimates
coming
out
of
Pacifica
at
300,000
a
year
and
likely
we
would
poach
some
of
the
specific
those
revenue
because
of
just
because
of
geography
300
year,
that's
two:
that's
two
police
officers.
We
just
we
just
talked
about
in
the
budget
about
of
having
to
defer
the
hiring
of
four
police
officers
in
San
Bruno
300k
a
year.
We
pay
for
two
so
as
I
would
really
highly
recommend
that
we
put
this
on
the
ballot.
O
B
G
It's
Sandra,
hello,
hi
I
have
spoken
many
many
times
in
front
of
City
Council
on
this
very
topic
and
I
have
talked
to
the
mayor,
the
council
members,
and
it
keeps
going
back
to
one
thing
to
me
not
about
the
potential
of
making
or
not
making
money.
It
seems
to
me
it's
more
about
three
people
on
council
who
just
don't
want
to
see
it
go
through.
We've
been
here
before,
and
the
last
vote
was
mayor,
Rico
Medina,
council
members,
Laura,
Davis
and
Michael
Salazar,
so
they
just
didn't
want
it.
They
did.
G
You
know
pretty
much
mayor
said
she
really
didn't
care
that
this
is
the
kind
of
city
that
it's
not
about
money.
There
were
not
those
kind
of
people.
Well,
what
kind
of
people
do
you
think
we
are
I'm?
A
daily
user
and
I'm
pretty
active
in
my
community,
so
I
find
that
truly
truly
insulting.
Then
we're
treated
like
second-class
citizens,
I
mean
comparing
Pacifica
to
Santa.
Cruz
I
mean
what
does
that
really
say
that
they're
different
or
less
than
us
I,
don't
think
so
and
I've
also,
and
thank
you
two
other
people
who've
spoken.
G
We
are
right
next
to
the
airport.
You
know
it
seems
like
this
is
always
set
up
to
fail,
not
to
succeed.
So
why
didn't
we
look
at
how
much
San
Francisco
is
making?
How
can
we
did
a
look
out
with
Oakland
is
making
and
pleased
if
there
is
a
dispensary
in
South
City?
Let
me
know
about
it,
because
I
will
start
going
there.
If
we
don't
get
one
here
right
now,
I'm
going
to
sample
still
it
elevated,
SF
and
so
I.
Just
really
think.
G
If
we
have
a
positive
attitude
and
just
said,
let's
try
something:
new
I
saw
that
it
took
no
time
to
get
that
liquor.
Locker
that
was
gonna
open
up
until
Kovac
I
hit
and
we
shouldn't
have
to
go
outside
of
our
city
for
a
legal
product.
I
mean
you,
people
on
council,
you
have
the
luxury
of
going
into
BevMo
or
anywhere.
You
want
and
walking
out
with
your
case,
with
your
children,
hand
in
hand
where
they
gonna
run
off
and
pick
up
a
bottle
off
the
shelf.
G
You
don't
get
to
just
walk
into
a
dispensary,
your
IDs
are
checked,
and
but
the
idea
and
I
tricked
this
saying
ago
what
kind
of
people
isn't
gonna
bring
your?
What
kind
of
garbage
is
our
gonna
bring?
Well,
you
know,
last
time,
I
checked
out
the
7-eleven
that
wasn't
looking
very
well
and
that
doesn't
seem
to
rise
to
your
concern.
So
it
would
just
be
interesting
that
maybe
a
maybe
a
positive
attitude
I
mean
we
couldn't
have
the
pride
flag
this
year
and
yeah
I.
G
Think
if
the
staff
needs
to
put
in
more
time,
yeah
go.
What
else
is
the
staff
for
they
are
on
a
salary
right,
so
why
shouldn't
they
be
working
towards
the
city?
Let's
give
people
a
chance
to
rise
the
city
up
a
little
bit
more
and
we
do
have
things
to
attract.
Do
we
have
beautiful
parks?
We
have
a
downtown
that
could
be
so
much
more
efficient
streets.
We
see
some
support
from
the
city
as
far
as
cleaning
it
up
it.
We
can
do
so
much
better.
It's
this
low
expectation
of
ourselves.
G
B
L
Now
I'll
tell
you
what
there
is
no
retail
space
in
South
San
Francisco.
All
that
South
San
Francisco
has
is
delivery.
So
you
can't
measure
South,
San,
Francisco
shouldn't
even
be
on
the
slides
mark
talked
about
eighty-five
distributors.
Eighty-Five
distributor
shows
that
there
is
a
need
in
San
Bruno,
and
you
had
a
couple
of
speakers.
I
think
Josh
talked
about
how
he
gets
delivery,
we're
giving
our
tax
dollars
to
someone
else
you
talk
about.
Where
could
this
be
put
when
you're
looking
at
regulations,
I
mean
there's
a
great
place
across
from
Golden
Gate
Cemetery?
L
It
wouldn't
be
near
any
schools.
There's
commercial
space
and
there's
parking.
I
just
ran
a
poll
on
next
door,
there's
238
votes
and
67%
say
they
want
to
see
a
dispensary
in
San
Bruno
that
mirrors
slightly
lower,
but
still
around
that
70%
mark
of
the
people
who
voted
to
legalize
cannabis
in
San
Bruno,
and
it
should
be
the
people
who
make
that
decision,
not
the
five
people
sitting
on
council
vipole
talked
about
Quixote
and
restaurants.
L
So
really,
if
you're
looking
at
a
study
that
would
be
all
inclusive,
you
wouldn't
just
be
looking
at
what
cannabis
would
bring
you
and
weigh
that
against
what
it
would
cost
you
to
put
it
on
the
ballot.
You
would
be
looking
at.
What
will
this
bring
to
our
hotels?
What
will
this
bring
to
our
restaurants?
We
have
open
spaces
on
San,
Mateo,
Avenue,
I'm
sure
there
would
be
lots
of
people
who'd
like
to
put
up
a
restaurant
and
become
a
taxpayer,
a
commercial
taxpayer
in
San
Bruno.
L
If
there
were
people
coming
here
and
we
are
sitting
next
to
the
airport-
that's
been
mentioned
many
a
time
in
the
slides
that
mark
gave.
Not
only
did
he
bring
up
the
sequel,
but
he
talked
about
the
hours
of
staff.
Time
and
I
could
be
wrong,
but
I
thought
there
was
a
figure
applied
to
that
we're
already
paying
our
staff.
We
have
declining
taxes
now
we're
talking
about
being
eight
point:
four
million
dollars
behind
in
revenue
and
you're
looking
at
ways
to
take
away
our
to
reduce
services
so
that
we
can
balance
the
budget.
L
We
have
a
recession-proof
business
here.
Vipole
brought
that
up
people
brought
that
up
he's
a
businessman
he's
been
in
this
business
for
a
long
while
thirty-five
thousand
dollars
being
brought
to
San
Diego
every
month
is
pretty
substantial.
This
could
also
ignite
a
return
of
the
tax
money
to
all
of
the
businesses.
Why
would
somebody
just
stay
in
a
hotel
and
eat
at
a
restaurant?
They
might
also
shop
here
as
well
and
I
agree
with
what
ro
said
we
need
to
diversify,
where
our
money's
coming
from
we're
spending
too
much
time
thinking
about
development.
L
This
is
a
huge
place
that
could
bring
money.
You're
gonna
put
Quixote
tax
on
the
ballot.
That's
gonna
bring
in
about
four
hundred
thousand.
This
is
gonna
bring
in
more
than
that,
and
then
lastly,
I
say
let
the
people
decide.
This
is
an
election
year
and
we
do
live
in
a
democracy
and
it
needs
to
go
on
the
ballot.
Thank
you
very
much.
L
B
A
H
H
Of
the
two
point,
five
to
ten
percent-
you
mentioned
that
and
it
can
even
go
higher
than
ten
percent,
but
within
the
two
point
five
percent
to
ten
percent
would
with
the
City
Council.
Would
that
be
it?
Let's
say:
if
this
moves
forward
tonight,
would
the
consultant
come
back
to
us
with
a
recommendation
on
what
that
text
should
be.
H
J
So
Duffy
yeah
good,
so
I'm,
not
a
hundred
percent
sure
about
Pacific
up
I
can
look
it
up
just
if
we,
if
you
give
me
a
minute
I,
think
South,
San
Francisco
was
effective
in
in
before
or
January
of
2019,
because
the
information
that
the
finance
department
received
from
the
city
said
that
they
had
received
about
a
or
less
than
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
since
January
of
2019.
So
I
can
take
a
look
and
see
when
Pacifica
was
was
put
on.
Just
give
me
a
second.
H
J
H
So
yeah
I
mean
I,
think
it's
a
decent
return
based
on
the
study,
but
I
see
any
provided.
I
wanted
to
also
ask
looking
at
my
notes:
Oh
same
same
question:
what's
now
San
Francisco,
so
they're
at
less
than
a
hundred
thousand,
but
could
that
be
because
it's
also
it's
from
what
I
saw
it's
also
recently
been
passed.
I,
don't
think
it's
that
long.
Since
all
city
approves
cannabis.
J
H
Because
I
mean
the
reason
I
bring,
that
up
is
I.
Would
I
would
imagine
that
if
you're
established
and
obviously
you're
gonna
make
some
money
upfront,
but
if
you're
not
establish
you
do
have
to
build
a
business,
so
I'm
not
sure
if
I'd
there.
If
anybody
has
any
expertise
in
this
area,
but
I
would
be
curious.
We
know
that
so.
H
H
So,
under
on
page
four
of
six
in
the
staff
report,
it's
right
after
the
ICMA
quote,
you
refer
to
the
city,
retaining
a
consultant
such
as
HDL,
to
determine
whether
San
Bruno
could
expect
to
realize
revenue
from
commercial
cannabis
activities
and,
if
so,
when,
and
how
much
what
would
happen
if
the
city
didn't
hire
a
consulting
company?
What
would
be
the
alternative
to
that.
J
Well,
I
guess:
there's
a
couple
of
ways
to
answer
that
question.
The
alternative
would
be
that
the
city
would
not,
or
the
City
Council
would
not
have
information
regarding
how
to
appropriately
craft
a
ballot
measure.
I
think
that's
the
simplest
answer,
and
so
we
would
be
in
essence
flying
blind
to
determine
what
what
to
put
on
the
ballot.
What
should
the
taxes
be?
Which
of
the
regulatory
issues
be?
H
J
Well,
I
think
you
partially
answered
the
question.
You
know
we'll
we'll
do
how
whatever
the
City
Council
directs
and
if
the
City
Council
indicates
that
they
don't
want
to
conduct
polling
to
determine
what
the
what
the
public
is
or
what
the
voting
public
may
be
interested
in
doing.
We
can
certainly
not
do
that,
but
then
it
would
be
up
to
the
City
Council
to
direct
staff
about
what
to
place
on
the
ballot
with
respect
to
a
regulatory
measure
and
with
respect
to
a
tax
measure.
The
polling
is
just
an
information.
J
D
Yes,
that
is
possible
what
the
polling
does
is.
It
pulls
likely
voters,
and
so
it
provides
information
for
the
City
Council
in
crafting
an
ordinance
that
may
be
accepted
by
San
Bruno
voters.
An
option
is
to
not
do
polling,
it
is
totally
optional
and
the
City
Council
can
provide
direction
or,
as
we
could
ask
the
consultant
for
their
advice,
they
would
be
informed
by
their
expertise
and
what
they
find
in
other
cities.
What
they
would
not
be
informed
of
and
really
the
only
way
to
find
out.
H
K
Yes,
thank
you
very
much
thanks
for
this
information.
My
very
first
question
is
what
needs
to
be
done
now
now.
What
could
wait
for
after
the
election
and
tie
it
into
that
question?
Is
it's
my
understanding
from
the
staff
report
that
it
gets
a
lot
more
complicated
if
we're
going
to
try
to
put
a
regulatory
ballot
measure
on
the
ballot
instead
of
the
tax
rate
master?
K
We
could
look
into
possibly
not
doing
the
mailer.
Is
there
another
way
that
we
could
rely
on
those
residents
or
some
some
third
party
to
step
up
to
the
plate
and
push
this
forward
to
reduce
the
cost
to
the
city?
So
in
comparing
the
cost
of
just
a
tax
rate
measure,
can
we
can
right
here
from
staff
of
what,
if
it's
true,
that
that
cost
would
go
down
by
proxy
and
general
getting
rid
of
the
polling?
That
would
reduce
the
cost
by
at
least
fifty
five
thousand.
J
Why
I
think
in
essence,
that's
correct?
So
if
you
don't
do
polling
that
saves
the
amount
for
polling,
if
you
do
only
a
tax
measure
and
not
a
regulatory
measure,
that
saves
the
sequel
costs
and
it
also
saves
a
portion
of
the
consultant
cost.
Not
all
of
the
consultant
costs
obvious
will
still
need
some
assistance
with
determining.
What's
the
what's
the
right
tax
measure
so
that,
and
if
you
don't
do
a
mailer,
then
there's
no
cost
for
doing
a
mailer.
That's
true
right.
K
So,
with
with
that
reduction
in
the
cost
of
the
measure
and
and
and
I
bring
it
up
cost
because
we
are
facing
a
financial,
eight
point,
one
eight
point:
two
million
dollar
shortfall
coming
up
next
year,
I
can
remember
which
commenter
mentioned
that
we're
likely
going
to
lose
a
couple.
Businesses
due
to
covet
and
we're
gonna
have
even
a
greater
whole.
K
I
did
look.
Do
a
little
research
on
what
Pacifica
did
they
passed
ballot
measure
in
2017
with
78%
of
the
vote
they
did.
As
the
staff
report
mentions,
they
were
able
to
pass
the
put
on
the
ballot
measure
with
some
flexibility
to
raise
or
lower
the
tax
rate
based
on
the
market
conditions
with
which
I
think
this
is
really
what
I
would
want
to
have
here,
and
that
would
ask
the
consultant
who's
going
to
be
Perry
preparing
this.
K
You
don't
need
a
copy,
it
works
from
word,
but
but
that's
kind
of
the
that's
the
direction
or
that's
the
feeling
that
it
had
passed
it
78%
of
Pacifica,
that's
kind
of
like
the
that's
amazing
that
that
it
hit
those
numbers
and
having
that
flexibility
would
be
beneficial
to
getting
this.
To
pass
Pacifica
is
similar
to
San
Bruno
in
population
I
know
here
they
have
around
38,000.
K
We
have
for
almost
43,000,
their
per
capita
is
$52,000
a
year.
Ours
is
71
thousand
dollars
a
year
and
there
is
no
city
in
the
Bay
Area,
that
is
in
better
proximity
to
the
airport,
to
hotels
to
mass
transit
than
San
Bruno
and
those
travelers
that
are
that
would
come
to
our
city
and
I.
Believe
it
there
they're
worried
about
carrying
cannabis
on
them
when
they're
flying,
because
it's
still
a
federal,
a
federal,
illegal,
federally
and
they're
gonna
come
off.
K
That's
one
of
the
things
that
we
need
so
for
people
that
are
saying
like
people
going
to
go
to
Pacifica
instead
or
they're,
going
to
go
to
Santa
Cruz
they're,
already
going
to
go
to
Santa
Cruz,
but
pretty
much
everybody
else.
In
my
opinion,
only
when
they
get
off
that
plane
and
they're
looking
for
cannabis,
they're
gonna
go
to
the
closest
location
and
that
will
be
in
San.
Bruno
I
heard
that,
and
it's
not
really
clear.
K
K
Guess,
I
guess
I
guess
this
is
this
is
how
I
feel
right.
The
most
important
decisions
should
be
left
to
the
democratic
process
right
democracy
that
all
voters
get
to
decide
this.
We
put
it
on
the
ballot
I'm
aware
of
the
financial
difficulty
difficulties
that
were
in
right
now,
but
you
have
to
invest
some
money
to
get
a
return.
I
understand
some
other
council
members
may
have
some
moral
issue
and
I
respect
that
what
you
believe
should
be
in
for
your
family
is
great.
K
This
is
an
opportunity
to
let
the
voters
decide
it's
not
up
to
me.
I
didn't
run
to
become
a
council
member
to
say
on
the
Cannabis
candidate,
I'm
gonna
I'm,
gonna
I'm
gonna
vote.
This
way
none
of
us
did
we're
looking
out
for
the
best
of
the
city
and
I
think
it's
always
best
to
let
the
voters
decide
I'll
reserve
my
comments
till
I
hear
from
my
others.
Colleagues,
so
thank
you.
H
H
This
means
that,
with
an
eight
million
dollar
deficit,
we
limit
our
choices
and
our
ability
to
truly
develop
thoughtfully
and
not
because
a
project
may
be
best
for
the
community,
but
because
it's
all
the
revenue
and
all
the
money
that
were
likely
to
get
out
of
desperation
for
funds
to
keep
those
services
and
staff
moving.
If
we
want
flexibility
and
decisions,
we
need
flexibility
in
our
revenue
sources.
H
As
a
mother
of
two
children,
I
fully
understand
the
concerns
around
cannabis
in
our
city.
With
that
said,
I
also
understand
that
without
funds,
our
children
may
access
to
quality
services
through
the
city
via
park
and
rec
library,
law
enforcement
and
our
seniors
could
lose
access
to
very
important.
Pivotal
sources
of
services
that
are
currently
available
in
San.
Bruno
funds
are
desperately
needed
in
our
city.
We
have
the
ability
to
manage
the
number
of
dispensaries
to
one
or
two,
and
we
further
have
the
ability
to
manage
the
location
in
which
their
place.
H
While
we
have
discussed
t
ot,
occupancy
tax
measure
K
as
a
full
council,
we
are
waiting
and
I
support
and
advocated
for
all
of
these
measures,
as
I
believe
most
of
the
councilmembers
here
have.
We
ultimately
may
not
see
large
revenues,
but
we
will
not
know
without
trying
and
that's
where
the
city
has
missed
opportunities.
It's
there
a
fear
of
trying
something
different.
We
really
really
need
this
revenue.
We
have
a
responsibility
to
be
fiscally
responsible,
while
other
areas
of
revenue
may
be
coming
before
at
a
later
time.
H
H
I
encourage
all
of
us
to
move
forward
with
this
item,
knowing
that
our
city
needs
the
revenue
in
order
to
allow
the
city
more
than
one,
maybe
two
lifelines
to
get
out
of
our
eight
million
dollar
deficit
and
ensure
that
we
have
done
everything
in
our
power
to
ensure
services
for
residents
remain
intact,
especially
as
we
potentially
go
into
a
recession
and
remember
all
we're
saying
is
let
the
people
deciding
let
our
city
decide
whether
they
want
to
welcome
cannabis.
Let
democracy
make
this
decision
after
all.
H
C
P
H
J
Carlos
does
not
have
an
open
dispensary.
The
only
place
that
we're
sure
about
that
has
open
dispensaries
is
Pacifica.
The
information
we
got
from
South
San
Francisco
was
what
they
they
allowed
them.
I
think
one
of
the
public
speakers
indicated
that
there
is
an
open
dispensary
there.
We
haven't
independently
verified
that.
What
we
do
know
is
that
the
revenue
from
the
activities
that
they
permitted
is
what,
as
reported
in
the
staff
report
and.
J
P
J
That's
all
right,
so
you
know
that's
that's
a
hard
question
to
answer,
except
to
note
that
other
cities
have
placed
these
ballot
measures
on.
Without
you
know,
any
obvious
attention
by
the
federal
government
I
think
it's
really
not
a
question
of
what
the
what
is
any
potential
liability
to
the
city.
It
really
affects
whether
the
businesses
will
begin
operation
to
begin
with
and
there's
certainly
information
that
we've
received
from
our
experts.
B
P
You
I'm
sorry
I've
gone
back
and
forth,
trying
to
read
my
notes.
Okay,
you
know
the
one
thing
that
I
didn't
hear
it
and
and
I
remember
running
for
City
Council
and
one
of
the
things
and
I
think
and
everybody's
literature,
they're
gonna
say
we're
gonna
talk
about
keeping
the
city
safe
right,
you
know
you
want
to
have
our
city
protected
and
we
don't
only
think
of
a
crime.
I
mean
what
sort
of
crime
dispensaries
bring
home.
Deliveries
are
completely
different
thing.
P
You
can
allow
somebody
to
deliver
something
to
home,
but
opening
it
up
a
storefront
and
wherever
it
may
be
located.
Let's
say:
I,
don't
take
some
Bay
Hill
right.
What
sort
of
crime
you
brought
to
the
area
because
it
dispensaries,
and
so
there
are
always
are
much.
There
was
anything
about
about
that
on
and
the
presentation
and
and
so
that's
hard
to
kind
of
make
these
decisions
to
say.
Well,
let's
let
the
voters
vote
for
it
and
if
it
wins,
if
the
passes
it's
coming
through
and
now,
we've
opened
up
a
situation.
P
That's
concerning
for
a
lot
of
personal
reasons.
I
have
a
lot
of
concerns,
but
the
one
thing
I
will
say
is
that
I
don't
in
any
way
shape
or
form
have
anything
about
it.
Anybody
using
it
in
fact,
I
had
friends,
I
have
family
on
the
two
and
and
for
some
people
a
good
friend,
it's
what
gets
him
through
with
a
lot
of
aches
and
pains.
So
please
for
anybody
who
thinks
that
I'm
against
it.
P
What
I
have
a
hard
time
with
is
and-
and
somebody
said
well,
you
know
shouldn't
be
about
council
members
who
don't
want
to
vote
for
that.
Well,
we
make
a
lot
of
decisions
in
San,
Bernardo
Chile,
on
the
benefit
of
the
community.
Somebody
indicated
about
a
poll
on
next
door.
Well,
I
mean
I.
Can
I
can
reach
out
to
50
of
my
friends
and
I
one
person's
on
next
door,
because
it's
a
frustrating
application
and
for
many
reasons
now
it's
time
for
it.
P
So,
although
the
poll
is
good
and
the
feedback
is
good,
it
isn't
a
really
good
representation
of
our
community
and
so
pulling
our
community
has
to
be
a
requirement.
If
you
wanted
to
move
forward
with
this
and
I,
don't
think
you
can
spend
the
money
and
then
all
those
things
that
you
just
talked
about
well
landlords
want
a
lot
of
men.
P
They
can't
get
the
funding
for
it,
your
name.
If
you
name
a
list,
we
spent
almost
money
upfront
and
we
can't
recoup
any
sales
tax
and
the
other
thing
I
have
a
hard
time
with
is
I.
Remember,
there's
two
things
number
one
is:
are
we
doing
this
for
the
revenues?
Are
we
doing
this
to
provide
a
service
to
the
residents
and
it
may
not
be
residents
may
be
visitors
right?
P
You
fly
into
San
Francisco
and
you
know
I
need
to
get
some
some
stuff
because
I
couldn't
fly
with
it,
so
I'm
gonna
drop
into
Center,
San,
Bruno
and
picks
them
up.
You
know
years
ago,
when
we
thought
work
was
coming
in
what
a
great
service
and
what
a
great
thing,
and
yet
we
had
to
have
cops.
It
sent
a
champ
Fran,
the
BART
because
of
the
crime
that
occurs.
So
we
spent
a
little
bit
money
and
we
spend
more
money.
P
P
What
we
need
to
move
on,
so
the
question
tonight
is
whether
or
not
we
should
allow
the
voters
to
put
this
on
City
Council
to
put
this
on
the
ballot,
and
you
know
that's
a
difficult
thing
without
really
a
lot
of
information,
I
mean
I'm
I'm
disappointed
that
staff
had
to
spend
the
amount
of
hours
up
to
this
point
on
this
today,
during
a
period
of
time
of
unprecedented
times
in
San
Bruno,
and
they
just
continue.
I
mean
the
amount
of
things
that
businesses
are
going
through
today,
dealing
with
their
riots.
P
You
have
no
idea,
and
until
you
work
in
a
business
all
day
long
and
deal
with,
what's
going
on,
you
don't
understand
we
and
I
and
sort
of
staff.
I'm,
sorry
and
I
feel
what
you're
going
through
and
I
understand
the
pain.
We
have
priorities
missus
in
this
town,
and
this
is
not
the
time
you
want
to
bring
this
on
at
a
time
that
maybe
we
can
feel
better
about
it
and
we
can
focus
on
the
things
that
are
a
priority
I'm
sorry.
This
cannot
be
a
Friday
for
right.
Now.
P
Call
me
out
call
me
names,
I,
don't
care,
but
the
end
of
the
day
we
have
to
run
a
city,
every
aspect
of
our
city
and
our
city
attorney
and
our
city
manager
should
be
focusing
on
the
important
things
of
our
city,
and
you
know
what
that
is.
It's
keeping
our
residents
safe.
It's
making
sure
that
my
kids
come
home
at
night
and
they
can
put
the
arrestor
their
head
in
the
pillow
because
to
those
who
are
listening
today,
many
cities
average
one
death
a
week
for
overdose.
We
have
a
fetanyl
crisis
on
our
hands.
P
Let's
focus
on
that.
Let's
show
up,
let's
go
in
ticket:
let's
go
up
and
stand
out
there
and
tell
our
families
to
make
sure
they're
watching
it
out
what
our
kids
are.
Buying
I
have
a
hard
time
with
in
it
and
when
I
hear
the
stories.
After
stories,
all
these
things
what's
spoken
to
the
priorities,
there's
too
many
things
to
focus
on
right
now,
we'll
get
to
this
you'll
become
a
time
that
I
think
we
can
put
the
time
into
it,
but
Cinelli
today
is
not
it.
Thank
you.
B
K
K
H
I
just
want
to
say
that
I
too
was
concerned
about
public
safety,
so
I
went
ahead
and
researched
it
on
my
own.
It's
included
in
the
ICMA
report
that
the
staff
did
refer
to,
and
it
does
say
here
that
the
police
chief
in
Pacifica,
noted
that
previous
illegal
businesses
avoided
reporting,
burglaries
and
other
crimes
against
their
property
for
fear
of
exposing
themselves.
H
Now
they
meet
local
safety
standards
and
enjoy
added
protection
from
the
police
department,
which
hasn't
seen
any
significant
increase
in
the
calls
for
service
goes
on
to
say
that
complementing
these
anecdotal
reports
from
city
administrators,
the
Washington
State
Institute
for
Public
Policy
provides
statistics
on
several
types
of
crime
in
the
state.
Since
the
legalization
of
recreational
cannabis,
arrests
for
drug
or
narcotic
violations
decreased
by
15%
in
2002
incidents
or
investigations,
whether
resulting
in
an
arrest,
are
not
identified
as
marijuana
related
decreased
by
63
percent
from
2012
to
2015
drug.
H
Only
driving
under
the
influence
arrests,
which
do
not
differentiate
marijuana
from
other
drugs
decreased
by
about
a
to
approximately
1200
for
2015
among
drivers
involved
in
a
traffic
fatality
who
are
tested
for
drugs
or
alcohol.
There
have
been
no
significant
growth
or
decline
in
those
testing
positive
for
marijuana
alone
or
in
combination
with
other
drugs
or
alcohol,
so
that
comes
from
the
same
report
that
staff
did
cite
in
their
in
their
staff
report
tonight.
That
was
done
by
ICMA
and
I
also
want
to
thank
staff
for
taking
the
time
to
invest
in
themselves.
H
We
are
hearing
cuts
across
the
board
and
salaries
that
are
happening
across
the
state,
as
governor
Newsom
has
already
announced.
I
think
that
this
is
one
more
way
again
that
we
diversify
our
revenue.
We
must
think
about
outside
the
box
thinking
we
cannot
solely
be
dependent
on
developments
because
we
need
to
have
have
again
thoughtful
development.
H
We
need
to
be
able
to
say
a
development
doesn't
fit
in
a
certain
area
or
a
character
of
a
development
doesn't
exist
and
not
worry
that
if
we
say
no,
that
we
don't
get
money
and
we
are
gonna
have
to
cut
more
services,
we've
got
to
find
more
ways
to
get
revenue.
And
again
we
are
not
saying
here.
Yes,
as
a
council,
we're
making
a
decision
on
behalf
of
the
city.
We're
saying
thank
you,
staff
for
set
spending
75
hours
on
this.
Thank
you
for
your
investment.
H
A
I
had
a
couple
questions
Michael,
unless
you
want
to
go
else,
can
I
get
with
my
questions.
You
go
ahead
and
ask
your
questions
right,
then,
I
think
any
time
it's
council
direct
staff
to
invest
their
time
in
something
and
nothing's
a
waste
of
time,
because
they
they
produced
a
product.
That's
my
opinion
with
it.
I
just
think
that
we
give
them
credit
for
the
time
and
never
for
it
and
not
the
work
that
they
brought
forward
to
us
as
was
requested.
A
J
So,
right
now,
when
the
City
Council
is
talking
about,
let's
put
a
measure
on
the
ballot,
it's
still
really
not
clear,
I
think
what
what
is
that
measure
going
to
be,
and
how
are
we
going
to
determine
what
it
is?
That's
the
work
that
that
needs
to
be
done
so
and
that's
the
work
that
that
the
consultant
would
do,
and
so
we
really
until
we
know
and
have
some
direction
from
the
City
Council.
It's
it's
just
really
hard
to
estimate.
A
Okay,
there
was
a
there
was
some
comments
made
I
appreciate
those
thank
you.
I
want
to
go
back
to
one
that
was
made
as
far
as
just
the
history
which
was
made
in
the
staff
report
that
in
October
at
the
council
and
back
then
it
was
Linda,
was
not
on
at
that
time,
but
the
rest
of
the
the
other
four
of
us
were,
and
we
voted
to
have
a
moratorium
on
cannabis
in
the
city
of
San.
A
Bruno
follows
exceptional,
and
that
was
again
because
the
state
what
ever
was
going
to
happen
with
them
on
January
1st
we
didn't
want
to
be
under
what
their
rules
wore.
We
wanted
to
be
able
to
establish
our
office,
so
I
just
wanted
to
clear
that
up,
because
there
was
reference
made,
that
it
was
three
we
don't
care
and
for
insulting
folks.
A
You
know,
like
I,
said,
that's
just
to
go
back
into
the
history
of
of
how
we're
here
and
why
we
did
that
ban
so
mark
if
it
was,
if
it
was
for
the
tax
initiative,
you're
saying
there
is
no
sequa
staff,
time
could
be
50
hours
or
more.
It
depends
if
council
wants
or
directs,
as
as
far
as
a
mailer
does
the
council
want
poll
so
really
I'm
still
seeing
potential
of
what
37,
even
if
you
just
did
the
polling,
and
you
did
I'm
sorry
Oh
pulling
in
the
election
at
the
lowest?
Is
that
correct?
A
D
Mayor,
if
I,
if
I,
can
add
to
that
I
think
there's
also
the
question.
If
it
is
just
a
tax
measure,
does
the
City
Council
want
to
utilize
a
consultant
to
help
formulate
what
the
tax
level
should
be?
I
mean
one
of
the
things
that
comes
to
mind
is
if
the
City
Council
has
an
idea
of
the
type
of
revenue
or
the
amount
of
revenue
that
they
would
like
to
generate.
That's
going
to
require
some
analysis.
We
would
also
need
to
truly
understand
the
market
here.
D
I
think
it's
been
mentioned
a
number
of
times
that
our
proximity
to
the
airport
may
make
same
brutal
and
excellent
location
for
cannabis.
Dispensary
a
consultant
may
have
information
on
that.
Also
because
of
the
advent
of
deliveries,
it
is
also
quite
possible
that
people
would
go
to
their
destination
and
have
the
cannabis
delivered
at
their
destination
in
their
hotel
room
wherever
they're
staying,
and
so
the
sort
of
impact
of
our
location
and
proximity
to
the
airport
would
be
something
that
we
would
want
to
vet
with
a
consultant
that
has
worked
with
other
cities.
J
If
I
may,
mr.
mayor
add
on
to
that,
you
know,
this
has
been
a
very
sort
of
perplexing
topic
to
write
about
and
to
consider,
because
we
thought
there
would
be
a
lot
of
data
and
it
turns
out
there
actually
is
virtually
no
data.
We
really
only
have
one
data
point
which
is
the
city
of
Pacific,
and
you
know
we
looks
like
there's
a
sort
of
a
business
in
in
South
San
Francisco
there
near
the
airport.
They
don't.
J
There
doesn't
seem
to
be
anybody
rushing
into
South
San
Francisco
to
to
open
up
up
a
cannabis
dispensary.
So
it's
it's
really
difficult
for
staff
to
give
you
without
some
sort
of
expert
information,
to
give
you
some
some
sense
of
whether
from
a
revenue
standpoint,
this
is
really
likely
to
be
successful
at
all
and
and
if
so
when
and
that's
the
thing
that
I
think
were
we're
struggling
with
on
a
staff
level.
I
know
that
the
finance
director
Community
Development
Director.
We
were
all
on
the
phone
with
with
a
consultant.
J
We
spent
a
lot
of
time
on.
You
know
talking
with
him
about
about
these
issues,
and
you
know
the
consultant
indicated
that
for
city
the
size
of
San
Bruno,
there
might
be
two
dispensaries,
but
it's
not
really
clear
whether
why
the
city
would
support
two
dispensaries
if
South
San
Francisco
right
next
door,
which
is
just
as
close
to
the
airport,
supports
you
know
no
dispensaries.
J
J
You
know
frustration
about
how
difficult
it
was
for
us
to
bring
you
a
report
that
that
gives
you
the
information
that
you
need,
but
we
really
don't
have
a
lot
of
information
to
share
other
than
what's
in
the
report
and
sort
of
speculation,
even
from
the
consultant
about
what
might
or
might
not
occur
in
the
city
of
San
Bruno.
If
a
measure
were
to
pass
and
then
if
the
City
Council
were
to
allow
certain
kinds
of
businesses,
so
I
just
wanted
to
have
that.
H
So
if
this
was
taxed
and
there
was
revenue
generated
that
revenue
from
what
I've
read
can
be,
is
it
treated
like
almost
like
the
general
fund?
It
could
be
applied
to
anything
because
I've
read
cities
who
have
used
it
to
fund
child
care
I've
seen
some
of
it
goes
towards
I,
believe
law
enforcement.
Are
there
any
limitations
on
that
revenue?
Sure.
D
In
general,
any
tax
measure
that's
put
on
the
ballot
for
general
purposes
requires
a
fifty
percent
or
fifty
plus
one
percent
majority
of
the
voters
to
adopt
if
it
is
to
be
dedicated
to
a
specific
service.
That
requires
a
two-thirds
majority
of
voters.
So
that's
really
a
decision
for
council,
whether
you
want
it
to
be
general
or
special
purpose.
Revenue.
J
No
but
I'll
confess
that
we
didn't
go
beyond
the
peninsula
so
and
you
know
exactly
know
what
a
loss
would
mean.
So
we
didn't,
for
example,
I
would
take
probably
hundreds
of
hours
of
research
to
figure
out.
How
much
did
the
city
spend
on
staff
time
and
consultants
to
put
something
on
the
ballot,
and
then
it
turns
out
they
didn't
get
any
revenue
whatsoever.
I
mean
we
know
that
some
cities
on
the
peninsula
did
that
they
spent
a
bunch
of
time
and
money
to
put
things
on
the
ballot
and
they
don't
have
any
revenue.
J
So
we
don't
know
if
that's
a
loss
or
we
don't
know
if
they're
expecting
revenue
in
the
future.
It's
we
just
couldn't
go
that
that
deeply
into
the
into
the
information,
and
much
of
that
requires
staff
at
those
cities
to
get
back
to
us
during
a
time
when
they're
overwhelmed,
both
with
kovat
and
the
pandemic,
that,
for
example,
it
was
difficult
to
get
responses
out
of
some
of
the
cities
and
took
quite
a
bit
of
time.
So
we're
not
really
sure
about
that.
Thank.
H
C
Sure
I'll
make
some
comments
so
from
what
we're
hearing
there's
likely
some
potential
for
revenue,
assuming
that
there
is
a
business
someday
in
San.
Bruno
could
take
advantage
of
this
from
most
of
what
I'm
hearing
that
there
is
no
guarantee
and
probably
very
low
likelihood
being
that
there
are
barriers
to
entry
and
we've
seen
what's
happening.
Another
city
so
definitely
no
guarantee
of
any
revenue.
So
to
say
that
this
is
our
diversification
plan.
I
think
is
is
ridiculous.
C
If
we're
gonna
put
this
above
development,
when
every
other
city
on
the
peninsula
is
has
been
very
successful
with
their
development
plans.
Yet
nobody
is
selling
marijuana
I,
don't
know
how
you
consider
that
diversification.
The
state
has
missed
their
revenue
targets
by
huge
huge
margin.
So
it's
definitely
not
the
market.
Everybody
predicted
we're
seeing
you
know
we're
some
some
claims
that
we're
losing
tax
revenue
because
because
of
these
delivery
companies
that
are
out
there,
but
we
also
heard
that
they're
those
companies
are
hard
to
tax.
C
So
are
we
really
losing
revenue
to
them
or
are
they
going
to
continue
to
operate?
Will
they
continue
to
do
their
business
and
not
pay
tax?
To
anyone
not
to
San
Francisco,
not
to
San
Jose
and
definitely
not
to
San
Bruno,
is
that
really
lost
revenue
there?
So
you
know
we're
competing
against
this.
This
you
know
of
this
market
that
operates
right
on
the
fringe
and
we're
also
competing
with
illegal
sentence
of
marijuana
which
have
grown
since
its
become
legal
in
California.
C
They
have
not
been
hurt
at
all
by
legalization,
so
we
continue
to
struggle
with
that.
So
we
start
taxing
people
that
can
get
it
cheaper
on
the
street.
We're
gonna
continue
to
get
it
on
the
street.
People
that
don't
pay
our
tax
because
they
give
it
to
a
delivery,
will
continue
to
do
that.
So
I
think
that
there's
a
reason
why
no
other
side,
even
the
ones
that
have
had
ballot
measures,
are
seeing
any
revenue
from
this
and
I
think
that
the
market
has
been
pretty
much
tapped
out.
C
So
if
this
is
a
financial
decision
for
some
people,
I
say
that
it's
it's
an
ill-conceived
way
of
moving
the
city
forward.
The
amount
of
money
that
we
could
generate
from
this
I,
don't
think,
is
worth
the
effort
and
definitely
not
when
we
have
limited
resources
right
now
and
we
could
be
channeling
efforts
into
doing
other
things.
C
Somebody
said
that
San
Bruno
should
be
leading
and
not
following
well
we're
already
following
in
this.
We
have
examples.
There
whole
rest
of
our
county
has
gone
ahead
and
they're
just
not
being
successful.
So
we
do
have
some.
We
do
have
some
data
and
really,
like
Mark,
said
the
one
data
point
of
where
there
are
dispensaries.
They
were
pre-existing.
They
had
Medical
dispensaries
there
before
the
legalization,
and
so
they
were
established.
They
had
an
established
clientele
and
everything
was
already
set
up
for
them,
but
we
haven't
seen
anybody
else
breaking
into
the
market.
C
I
think
there's
a
reason
for
that
and
I'm.
Also
hearing
saying
I
heard
a
couple
of
my
colleagues
say
that
you
know
this
is
something
that
should
be
voted
on.
It
should
be
a
decision
of
the
people
and
I've
heard.
One
of
the
speakers
say
that
the
council-
it's
not
the
council's
job
to
decide,
but
I
disagree
with
that.
I
think
it
is
the
council's
job
to
decide.
I
think
it's
a
huge
cop-out
for
us
to
say
we're
gonna
wash
our
hands
of
it
and
just
throw
it
out
there.
C
We
saw
the
same
thing
happening
with
fireworks.
The
council
didn't
want
to
make
a
decision,
they
put
it
on
the
voters
and
now
there's
all
kinds
of
discord
in
the
city
and
the
council
has
absolutely
zero
power
to
change
anything
or
make
any
modifications
because
they
refuse
to
make
the
decision
they
refuse
to
take
a
stand,
put
it
on
the
voters.
So
now
nothing
can
change
unless
there's
another
ballot
measure
so
saying
that
the
decision
to
have
dispensaries
should
be
on
a
ballot.
I
totally
disagree
with
that.
C
If
the
council
thinks
that
we
should
have
them,
then
we
should
take
a
vote
and
make
it
happen.
It's
not
a
realm
to
do
it
and
if
that's,
if
that's
what
we
believe
we
were
elected
to
do,
then
we
should
be
doing
that.
We
shouldn't
be
handing
it
off.
We
shouldn't
cop-out,
we
should
do
our
jobs
and
make
the
decisions
that
we
will
elected
to
make.
C
Also,
you
know
just
listening
to
the
speakers
that
came
out
today.
It's
it's
funny
how
many
people
are
actually
in
the
business
that
are
out
here
speaking
about
it.
So
if
you
talk
about
throwing
this
out
to
the
voters,
what
do
you
think
is
gonna
happen?
Just
like
fireworks?
All
the
fireworks
companies
came
out
and
just
blasted
everybody's
mailboxes
with
propaganda
about
why
we
should
have
fireworks
same
thing
is
going
to
happen
here.
You're
gonna
put
this
out
to
the
voters
and
they
are
gonna,
get
a
biased
push
to
put
this
through.
C
So
regardless
of
how
the
people
may
have
really
felt
a
regardless
of
what
a
fair
and
balanced
election
would
look
like
it's
gonna
be
biased
because
there
are
interested
parties
that
are
ready
to
come
here
and
try
to
push
an
agenda
that
they're
gonna
profit
from
so
I.
Think.
That's
that's
another
reason
why
this
decision
needs
to
be
made
by
people
that
are
not.
You
know
somehow
gonna
profit
from
this,
the
people
that
spoke.
C
Nobody
provided
any
details
on
what
we
should
be
advocating,
for
so
everybody
said,
put
it
on
the
ballot,
but
what
nobody
said
put
ten
percent
on
the
ballot?
Nobody
said
put
five
percent
on
the
ballot,
nobody
said:
click,
yes,
no
on
the
ballot
they
just
like
put
it
on
the
ballot.
Put.
What
on
the
ballot,
so
there's
been
no
no
clear
recommendation
from
the
public
on
what
exactly
they're,
even
advocating
for
other
than
they
just
want
the
sale
of
marijuana.
C
And
lastly,
my
last
comment:
it's
clear
that
there
are
people
in
the
community
that
are
very
vocal
and
they
are
just
determined
to
remake
San
Bruno
in
in
a
way
that
benefits
them
in
ways
that
you
know
they
want
us
to
be
more
like
San
Francisco.
They
want
to
be
more
or
less
some
European
City,
but
San
Bruno,
San,
Bruno
and
I,
like
San
Bruno.
C
The
way
it
is
it's
why
I
brought
my
family
here
and
so
to
have
people
come
here
and
tell
us
that
that
we're
behind
the
times
or
that
we're
you
know
somehow
hokey
for
for
thinking
that
what
we
do
is
right,
it's
it's!
It's!
Why
I
came
here
and
you
know
there
are
a
lot
of
people
in
the
community
that
didn't
make
their
voices
heard
tonight.
C
They're,
not
comfortable
speaking
in
public,
but
I
think
they
need
up.
They
need
to
be
represented
as
well,
and
so,
if,
if
I
get
overruled
on
this,
so
be
it,
but
I
think
that
even
those
people
that
that
are
not
represented
in
the
meeting
tonight
that
their
voices
do
need
to
be
heard
and
not
everybody
is
in
favor
of
this.
C
It's
interesting
that
we
had
so
many
people
in
the
community
come
out
and
speak
against
Whole
Foods
because
they
said
it's
gonna
bring
too
much
business
to
that
intersection
too
much
traffic
too
many
cars
too
many
people
in
that
area.
But
here
we
are
saying
no,
but
we
want
to
have
dispensaries
and
it's
okay.
If
we
bring
in
people,
let's
channel
them
in
from
the
airport,
let's
bring
them
from
all
over
the
county.
So
why
is
that?
C
Okay,
and
once
we
once
we
decide
if
we've
moved
forward
with
this
and
then
we
have
a
location
and
then
people
are
gonna
come
out
and
they're
saying:
well,
no,
not
in
my
neighborhood.
We
don't
want
it
here.
We
don't
want
it
there
and
then
what
the
end
of
pushing
him
in
a
corner
somewhere
where
nobody
wants
to
be
I,
don't
know!
C
C
Whole
foods
would
have
brought
a
certain
level
of
recognition
to
the
city
that
we
missed
out
on,
but
we're
okay
doing
to
make
San
Bruno
the
cannabis
city,
marijuana
city,
so
just
for
the
sake
of
getting
a
couple
hundred
thousand
dollars
in
revenue
possible
and
and
maybe
not-
maybe
not
even
that.
So
that's
all
I
got.
A
H
H
Yeah
I
just
want
to
say,
I
think
that
first
off
I've
been
pretty
clear.
That
I
would
have
liked
a
Whole
Foods
here
as
well.
So
I'll
start
by
saying
that
and
that
ship
has
sailed,
and
the
other
thing
is
I
just
want
to
make
a
comment
about
the
development
I'm,
not
saying
that
we
don't
need
development
or
that
we're
not
open
to
development.
H
What
what
we
talked
about
with
diversifying
our
revenue
sources
is,
let's
not
just
depend
on
measure
G,
which
was
a
promise
to
the
community
to
repave
their
streets
right
as
our
lifeline
or
as
our
slush
fund.
Let's
not
plan
on
just
development
that
we
as
a
community
may
or
may
not
like,
like
you
said,
I
like
San
Bruno,
right
I
like
how
hell
it
is
I,
don't
know
I
mean.
Are
you
looking
at
turning
it
into
an
overdeveloped
subverts
upper
I?
H
Don't
know,
but
if
the
only
option
that
we
have
to
get
us
out
of
a
deficit
is
development,
then
we
are
really
limiting
where
we
can
go
and
how
transformative
that
we
can,
and
so
you
know,
development.
Just
as
a
reminder.
Impact
fees
were
approved.
Last
year
and
the
city
lost
decades
of
what
could
have
been
made
that
other
cities
that
are
way
ahead
of
us
on
looked
forward
to
so
I
just
wanted
to
make
those
comments,
because
I
think
they
weren't
entirely
fair
and
I.
H
Think
that,
when
we're
looking
at
this,
it's
not
a
judgment.
If
you
don't
support
it,
it's
more
of
saying
that
I
think
that
this
is
a
potential
for
revenue
on
the
cities
that
haven't
gotten
it.
We
don't
know
what
they
put
into
it.
We
don't
know
what
they
lost.
Well,
we
know
is
the
cities
that
do
have
commercial
have
clearly
made
money
and-
and
they
are
just
starting
their
only
into
their
second
one
year
and
two
years
for
the
two
cities
that
were
provided
to
us.
So
I
just
wanted
to
make
those
comments.
Okay,
Laura.
P
Are
three
council
members
that
brought
this
to
this
agenda
tonight?
Customer
Medina
council
member
Mason
in
there
Medina
and
I
appreciate
the
comments
by
Mayor
Rudy
or
by
customer
Medina
and
council
member
Mason,
but
I
haven't
really
heard
your
thoughts
or
opinions.
So
I'd
like
to
hear
from
you
mayor
Medina
before
we
vote.
K
Yeah
I
just
wanted
to
give
credit
I'm
sorry
give
credit
to
Michael
Salazar's,
councilman,
Salazar's
beliefs
and
his
opinions.
I
disagree
with
a
couple
of
those.
It
isn't
a
cop-out
to
allow
our
residents
to
vote
on
something
and
it's
actually
a
legal
requirement
if
you're
going
to
tax
it.
So
if
I
can
confirm
with
the
city
attorney,
if
that's
correct,.
K
K
J
K
So
councilman
Salazar,
that's
why
it
should
be
up
to
them
for
them
to
decide
how
to
do
the
tax.
This
is
a
study
session,
so
I
don't
think
it's
fair
to
to
have
the
public
come
up
with
the
tax
percent.
That's
within
staffs
work
Pacifica
and
they
did
a
great
job
in
the
presentation
showing
that
and
and
for
those
people
that
are
talking
that
you
feel
that
their
voices
aren't
heard
when
they,
when
there's
an
election.
K
We
will
have
a
good
turnout
again
in
our
elections
and
I
think
our
community
is
engaged
and
whole
foods
could
be
in
another
location
that
should
be
sale
and
the
tax
on
food.
You
don't
get
taxes
on
the
food,
so
it
would
still
be
a
great
benefit
to
have,
and
hopefully
a
shop
or
grocery
store,
like
Whole
Foods
will
be
one
day
located
at
Tan
Tran.
But,
as
you
know,
we
don't
control
that
we
don't
get
to
control
the
project
as
it
comes
forward
to
us.
K
D
D
Sorry,
sorry
I
just
think
as
staff.
It's
important
that
we
give
you
all
the
options
that
are
available
to
you
and
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
we
have
really
clearly
done
that
tonight.
So
Marty,
one
of
your
questions
was
to
the
city
attorney.
Can
the
voters
are
the
voters,
the
only
one
that
can
approve
a
cannabis
tax?
That
is
yes,
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
council
knows
that
there
are
other
options,
and
that
is
a
the
regulatory
option.
D
The
City
Council
can
put
a
regulatory
item
before
the
voters.
Now
that
would
not
be
increasing
the
tax.
The
city
would
only
get
our
existing
1%
of
the
regular
sales
tax
and
then
our
0.5%
of
the
measure
G
sales
tax.
So
we
would
get
one
point.
Five.
The
other
regulatory
option
is
that
the
City
Council
can
pass
an
ordinance
and
allow
marijuana
dispensaries
without
putting
that
before
the
voters
and
that
was
embedded
in
what
we
talked
about
tonight.
D
But
it
really
wasn't
highlighted
and
I
want
council
to
really
know
the
options
that
are
available
to
you.
A
tax
requires
or
fifth
vote
of
the
City
Council.
To
put
it
on
the
ballot,
a
regulatory
item
requires
a
majority
three
people
of
the
City
Council
to
put
that
on
the
ballot,
but
the
City
Council
can
also
adopt
an
ordinance
by
majority,
and
that
would
allow
cannabis
dispensaries.
It
would
not
create
a
additional
business
license
tax
to
tax
cannabis
businesses
at
a
higher
rate.
D
A
A
The
other
thing,
too,
is
it
all
I
have
heard
is
about
the
potential
resources
or
the
revenue
and
in
essence,
unless
you
have
an
additional
tax
like
which
San
Carlos
did
in
218
I
called
him
two
cities
this
weekend,
then
you
are
getting
the
1.5%
so
really
you're,
not
seeing
the
the
monies
that
you're
talking
about.
If
if
a
regulatory
went
on
and
it
and
you
had
dispensaries
that
additional
tax
is
not
going
to
be
there
and
unless
I'm
wrong,
you
can't
just
go
back
and
say
we
changed
our
mind.
A
A
As
far
as
if
for
a
regulatory
one
and
then
I
am
not
supporting
that
good
as
far
as
my
direction
for
myself,
so
I
don't
know
if
that
helps
guide
the
conversation
a
little
better.
But
that's
that's
where
I
sticked
as
of
this
evening
with
what's
happening
and
what's
going
on
and
with
the
costs
and
the
additional
staff
time,
I
think,
there's
and
not
having
a
tax
in
place.
It
defeats
that
purpose.
K
I,
concur:
I
I
believe
that
we're
going
to
proceed
that
we
go
the
easier
or
less
expensive
route
to
not
have
the
brillant
regulatory
ballot
measure
that
that
is
something
that
could
occur
afterwards
and
we'll
see
after
the
election
of
how
that
comes
out.
If,
if
the
City
Attorney
can
correct
me,
if
the
ballot
measure
does
it
passed
and
of
course
you
don't
have
to
spend
any
more
money
figuring
out
about
GIS
or
sequa,
but
it
does
pass
then
then
you'll
see
by
how
much
and
and
we
can
work
from
there.
J
Through
the
chair,
so
so
that
is,
that
is
correct.
The
the
reason
why
most
cities
have
chosen
not
to
just
put
a
ballot
measure
on
or
regulatory
measure
on,
why
most
cities
have
done
both
is
because
I
think
they
have
believed
that
the
public
should
know
sort
of
fully
what
they're
voting
for.
So,
if
you
were
to
put
a
tax
measure
on
without
a
regulatory
measure,
of
course
right
now,
there
are
no
commercial
cannabis
businesses
that
are
permitted
in
the
city.
J
K
J
You
could
do
that
at
any
time
right
now
you
could
direct
staff
to
amend
the
ordinances
that
would
allow
that
prohibit
cannabis,
and
you
could
say
we
would
like
to
allow
you
know
a
B
and
C
kinds
of
businesses.
So
that's
direction.
You
could
give
staff
at
any
time
before
or
after
the
measure
passes.
If
it
does
pass.
Okay.
K
A
I
do
know
we
have
there's
a
60-day
framework
and
then
I
do
agree.
It
just
to
say
up
or
down
I
mean
people
do
want
to
know
numbers
they
want
to
know
where
and
I
think
you
don't
put
things
on
the
ballot
that
don't
have
more
specifics,
because
then
there's
just
the
you
know
even
on
measure,
and
even
though
maybe
it
was
communicated,
some
does
don't
feel
it's
like.
H
H
B
A
There
would
need
if,
if
somebody
wishes,
you
know
the
only
the
only
concern
and
I
know
mark
you
can't
quantify
it.
I
understand
that
there's
a
lot
less
economic
aspect,
a
lot
less
time,
but
what
I
am
trying
to
understand
is
and
I
understand,
because
I'm
gonna
go
back
to
and
I
respected.
That
party
was
saying.
Well,
please
let
me
know,
please
help
me
quantify
that
and
the
best
possibility.
You
know
what
are
we
talking
dollars
and
what
are
we
talking
time?
J
For
a
tax
measure,
mr.
mayor,
yes,
well,
not
not
having
heard
what
activities
the
City
Council
might
wish
to
place
on
the
ballot
in
terms
of
attacks
again,
it's
it's
really
hard
to
say:
I
can't
estimate
any
less
than
50
hours
of
staff
time,
just
because
I
know
how
long
it
took
to
to
get
to
get
to
this
point
and
I.
Don't
think
that,
given
the
circumstances,
it's
really
going
to
be
any
less
than
that.
A
50
hours
and
you're
still
feeling
that
we
would
need
to
invest
the
obviously
the
7
to
11
thousand
dollars,
or
it
also
be
I,
can
feeling
there
needs
to
be
a
proposed
or
HDLs.
Based
on
what
the
council
I
know,
I
heard
some
colleagues,
so,
let's
deal
with
Pacifica,
did
answer
and
bypass
having
to
do
polling
to
save
30
K,
which
was
estimated
so
and
any
additional
thought
mark.
J
H
D
A
Only
concern
is
here
now
we're
in
the
potentially
you
know,
$67,000
now,
plus
staff
time.
I
know,
there's
no
sequel,
so
this
is
what's
concerning
me
at
this
time.
When
we
have
60
days,
is
you
know
to
me
you
got
ahead.
You
got
to
have
that
in
place
before
you
get
to
the
next
step,
but
at
the
same
time,
I'm
concerned
about
the
monies
which
we're
going
to
be
talking
about
on
the
9th
staffing
component
in
the
city.
The
resources
that
are
starting
to
you
know
we're
having
to
be
mindful
of
so.
A
D
That's
fair,
just
a
word
on
the
staff
time
because
it's
been
the
subject,
a
lot
of
questions
tonight,
we're
providing
an
estimated
amount
of
staff
time,
but
at
the
end
of
the
day,
all
your
staff
are
public
servants
and,
if
so
directed
by
counsel,
we
will
spend
the
necessary
time.
You
know.
Is
there
finite
amount
of
time
to
work
on
things?
Absolutely
will
well
other
things
get
pushed
off
absolutely.
D
A
A
Me
ask
you
this:
the
council
has
strategic
initiatives
on
4th.
Is
this
something
that
we
should
be
putting
together
in
this
one
ball?
So
we
see
all
the
plans
all
the
times,
because
when
you
say
which
I
appreciate
your
being
candidate
is
well
something's,
not
gonna,
get
done.
Okay!
Well,
that
concerns
me
I,
don't
know
what
that
something
is
I'll
know
on
4th.
When
the
council
comes
together
and
says:
here's
the
50
80
things,
and
now
how
are
we
going
to
prioritize
that?
D
So
I
guess
my
best
response
to
that
is
we
pull
this
item
out
of
strategic
initiatives
because
it's
really
an
immediate
item.
If
council
says
yes,
we
need
to
immediately
start
working
on
the
necessary
items
to
put
it
on
the
ballot
in
advance
of
that
I
believe
August
8th
deadline
to
provide
everything
to
the
county
and
the
strategic
initiatives
are
really
about
next
fiscal
year,
the
2021
fiscal
year,
beginning
in
July,
and
so
that's
why
we're
here
tonight
and
not
talking
about
this
under
strategic
initiatives.
A
B
P
I
have
distractions
tonight,
unfortunately
I'm
a
dog
that
surgery
and
sorry
anyway,
sorry
I
was
just
gonna
say
that
I
think
it's
important
to
just
again
be
clear:
we're
in
a
very
challenging
time
so
anytime,
we
pull
from
staff
is
taken
away
from
very
critical
time
during
a
time
when
we
have
deficits-
and
we
know,
as
pointed
by
a
public
comment
tonight-
that
supposedly
we're
not
reviewing
the
contract
well
enough
in
Recology.
Why
is
that
again?
P
We
put
things
back
in
the
burner
because
something
is
always
a
priority
and
staff
has
to
kick
butt
every
single
time
and
try
to
stay
afloat
because
you're
so
many
things
in
their
plate.
It's
one
more
thing:
it's
one
more
thing:
our
list
of
priorities
are
long
and
I've
got
priorities.
I've
got
things,
I
want
to
be
I
want
to
move
forward.
I
keep
waiting
to
have
that
strategic
study
session.
So
we
can
talk
about
those
things
that
are
priorities
and
and
again
the
other
point
I
want
to
make.
P
Is
that
I
think
it's
important
to
say
to
you:
there's
no
guarantee
and
fundings?
So,
if
there's
no
guarantee
and
fundings
right
now,
why
gamble
on
the
minimum
money
we
have
because
we
have
a
deficit?
And
finally,
if
it's
about
providing
the
service
just
to
sandbar
our
residents
that
need
this
I.
Remember
12
years
ago
a
conversation
with
my
son
driving
in
a
car
as
a
freshman
in
high
school,
hey
Ryan,
how
easily
available
is
it
for
you
to
get
rent
rep
marijuana
and
how
easily?
How
long
will
it
take
you?
P
Oh
probably
within
30,
minutes
mom?
Why
guarantee
you
that
time
is
shrunk
and
a
half,
if
not
less
than
that?
So
it's
not
about
not
being
a
provide
the
service,
it's
all
about
a
tax
measure,
so
if
we
can't
can
tear
into
the
funds
right
now,
where
are
we
even
going
down
this
path?
We
don't
have
the
funds
to
spend
I'm,
not
again,
where
I
don't
want
to
spend
money
on
something
that
I
can't
guarantee.
Some
good
funds
are
coming
in.
A
lot
of
questions
still
need
to
be
answered.
A
A
H
H
J
So
let
me
clarify
and
I
guess
we'll
hey,
we'll
just
be
brutally
honest,
so
I
think
given
given
the
time
that
we
have
while
it
might
be
tempting
to
say
that
three
of
you
could
direct
staff
to
proceed
and
develop
a
tax
measure
that
that
would
be
fine
and
perhaps
okay
in
normal
times.
I
would
say
that
at
this
point,
staff
would
like
to
know
whether
there
are
ultimately
four
votes
to
put
the
measure
on
the
ballot
before
spending
all
of
the
additional
time
necessary
to
do
yet.
A
A
H
C
Well,
I
mean
we
heard
the
threats
and
we
hear
the
threats
a
lot.
You
know
there's
an
election
coming
up
and
if
you
don't
do
it,
somebody
else
will
so
I
mean
there
could
be
another
council
here
in
a
few
months.
It's
gonna
be
totally
pro
marijuana
they'll
do
whatever
they
want
to
do
so.
I
think
there
might
be
some
benefit
to
having
the
tax
in
place
in
case.
That
does
happen,
but
I
am
not
in
favor
of
spending
any
staff
time
or
any
money
to
do
this
in
this
situation.
C
A
J
I'll
start
and
then
the
city
manager
can
can
say
something
so
I
think
I
understand
the
situation
and
I
understand
the
City
Council's
desire
to
not
have
staff
spend
any
time
on
a
ballot
measure.
I
think
that
there
is
no
way
that
staff
will
not
spend
time
on
a
ballot
measure,
no
matter
how
simple
it
may
appear
to
be
we're
not
going
to
copy
somebody
else's
ballot
measure
and
put
it
out
to
the
City
Council
to
vote
on
or
to
the
public.
J
That's
not
what
you
hire
professional
staff
to
do:
we're
not
going
to
make
something
up,
we're
going
to
request
and
recommend
the
engagement
of
consultants
to
help
us
develop
the
measure
and
I.
It's
just
difficult
for
I,
think
any
staff,
and
we
have
other
staff
on
the
phone
as
well
to
recommend
placing
a
ballot
measure
on
on
the
ballot
that
has
really
not
been
vetted
by
by
anybody.
I
guess.
To
put
it
bluntly,
and
so
those
are
those
are
my
comments.
D
D
Very
highly
and
I:
don't
think
that
we
would
do
anything
less
than
give
you
our
best
work,
product
and
I
think
that
good
public
policy
is
always
informed
and
it
has
an
objective
and
if
the
city
objective
is
to
obtain
a
cannabis
dispensary,
it
may
not
be
the
best
idea
to
put
a
10%
tax
on
it,
and
then
you
put
that
on
top
of
the
22%
state
tax,
that's
32%!
You
put
that
on
top
of
our
measure,
gee
tax,
that's
32.5%,
and
so
I
think.
D
If
the
city
does
goal
is
to
have
a
cannabis
dispensary
that
takes
policy
analysis.
That
takes
time
that
takes
options
and
so
I
know
it's
sort
of
easy
to
say:
hey,
let's
just
put
10%
out
there
and
see
what
the
voters
say
and
on
top
of
that
to
not
do
that
with
the
regulatory
item.
I,
don't
think
that
achieves
the
council's
goal,
which
would
be
to
put
something
out
to
the
voters
and
raise
revenue
for
the
city,
which
is
what
I've
heard
through
cannabis.
Businesses
I,
don't
know
that
that
would
have
keep
that
objective.
D
It
may
get
a
lot
of
people
entice
that
we
would
get
a
cannabis
dispensary,
but
what
we
put
out,
what
would
probably
not
be
informed
by
the
reality
of
the
situation
and
at
a
thirty
two
and
a
half
percent
tax
I'm,
not
sure
that
we
would
get
a
dispensary
given
the
prevalence
of
the
underground
market
and
the
prevalence
of
dispensaries
for
people
to
easily
undercut
that
thirty
two
percent
tax
and
have
it
delivered
from
somewhere?
That
has
a
lower
tax
rate,
so
I
think
the
public
policy
you
want
require
staff
time
and
it
requires
work.
D
K
B
A
So
city
manager,
including
you're,
still
obviously
saying
staff
time,
you're
still
saying
staff
resources
and
when
we're
you
know,
that's
one
thing
that
was
in
the
presentation.
Where
is
this?
Where
are
the
resources
coming
from?
As
far
as
the
economics
or
the
cult
in
for
the
ballot
initiative,
except
we.
D
A
A
A
H
So
no
I
was
just
gonna,
say:
so-and-so
council
member
cells
are
mentioned
at
10%
and
I'm,
just
saying.
If
I
don't
know,
if
that's
the
issue
is
a
percent
and
identifying
a
percent,
then
maybe
we
need
to
talk
about
what
what
we're
comfortable
with
here
and
both
councilmen
and
council
member
Davis
mentioned
her
concern
around
the
staff
time,
and
maybe
that's
a
conversation
that
we
can
also
have
around
how
we
can
alleviate
that.
H
Since
that's
such
a
large
concern,
because
we're
here
now
and
the
items
here
now,
if
it
doesn't
get,
you
know
if
it
doesn't
move
forward
tonight,
then
clear.
We're
not
gonna,
see
it
again
this
year,
so
I'd
rather
take
the
time
and
have
a
thoughtful
conversation
around
this
to
see
how
we
can
get
to
yes,.
A
P
A
Okay,
so
from
council
member
Davis,
it
is
about
the
funds
that
staff
feels
they
need
in
order
to
provide
the
product,
as
well
as
the
additional
staff
time
Michael.
You
had
made
mention
about
the
10%
just
coming
up
with
something
to
try
to
minimize
cost
and
staff
time
which
we're
hearing
from
Jovan
that
that
may
not
it
will
help,
but
it
may
not
eliminate
it
won't
eliminate
right.
C
Right
and
I
respect
both
mark
and
Yvonne's
dedication
to
their
their
profession
and
wanting
to
do
a
professional
job.
You
know
I'm
looking
at
it
from
a
standpoint
where,
if
they're,
there
is
definitely
an
interest
in
maximizing
revenue
to
the
city
maximizing
the
tax
just
makes
sense.
We
have
one
data
point,
but
a
good
data
point
where
Pacifica
went
to
the
10%
and
they're
the
only
ones
making
a
profit.
So
it
seemed
like
a
like
a
low-risk
estimate
on
how
to
move
this
forward,
but
again
I'm
with
Laura
I.
C
K
Got
it
got
it
and
to
all
my
colleagues,
you
know
this
is
this
is
a
difficult
time
for
many
many
reasons
and
knowing
the
value
and
the
amount
of
staff
time
that
it
will
take
to
do
the
work
that
we
currently
have
forecasted
in
our
budget
and
the
7280
priorities.
I
clearly
would
I
clearly
would
reduce
and
be
a
cognizant
of
that
fact
that
it's
a
wish
list.
K
Those
per
those
priorities
that
I
think
the
council
is
submitted
and
there's
no
way
I
expected
all
of
them
to
be
undertaken,
but
its
importance
at
least
talk
about
them
and
to
hear
we're
at
some
point.
Maybe
we
would
do
it
or
maybe
what
this
council
we
won't
do
it
so
I
know
we
have
a
meeting
in
two
days
and
I
I
think
we
all
are
concerned
about
the
staffs
load
and
so
we're
not
going
to
overload
them
I'm,
insisting
on
that.
K
We
reduced
our
priorities
from
101
down
to
1210
that
we
can
do,
and
this
is
one
of
those
things
that
we
can
do
to
allow
our
voters
to
decide.
Council
member
Davis
you're
absolutely
right.
There
are
no
guarantees
in
life.
There
were
no
guarantees
in
resergy.
There
are
no
mesh
guarantees
in
the
tio
to
you
that
we
may
be
pursuing
I'm
interested
in
all
those
costs
to
and
all
the
staff
time
on
that
I'm
sure
it's
gonna
be
clearly
in
this
range.
K
K
Let's
I
suggest
that
we
just
keep
that
in
mind
that
we're
not
gonna
overload
staff
that
may
have
happened
in
the
past.
We
have
to
be
aware
of
it
and
and
reducing
the
priorities
from
my
list.
I
have
no
problem
doing
that,
so
I'm
I'll
still
wait.
I
think
we
can
find
yes
here,
but
it's
understandable.
If
you
don't,
if
you
don't
want
to
do
it,
that's
okay!
We
can
agree
to
disagree
respectfully.
Thank
you.
P
Got
my
hand
raised
I,
don't
know
if
I
should
mute
or
unmute
I'm
like
anyway,
so
so
just
a
few
comments
I
actually
wanted
to
make.
One
was
measure
G,
and
that
is
I
mean
that's
a
guaranteed
tax
right.
We
know
based
on
history
that
we
can
anticipate
a
certain
dollar
revenue
coming
in
now
covert
hit
and
it
isn't
it
isn't
nearly
what
we
expect
coming
in,
but
it
still
funds
they're
gonna,
come
in
it's
guaranteed
revenues
and
the
same
for
the
Quixote
tax,
the
hotel
tax
right.
P
We
know
that
people
are
gonna,
start
traveling
again
already
starting
to
hear
that
that
buzz
in
the
hotel
industry
for
future
days,
I
have
friends,
who've
already
booked
their
trips
to
Hawaii,
it's
gonna
happen
and
people
gonna
come
back.
We're
grateful
to
have
YouTube
here
they
will
continue
to
travel
and
to
fill
the
hotels.
So
those
are
two
things
that
will
come
in
again.
This
is
just
not
a
guarantee.
A
All
right
so
hearing
what
I'm
hearing
now
I,
don't
know
that
we
have
four
and
I:
don't
want
to
put
words
in
mouths.
I
want
to
make
sure
that
I'm
I
mean
I've
been
taking
notes,
but
I
want
to
make
sure
I
know
we're
having
our
concerns,
which,
rightfully
so
because
still
on
Thursday,
even
if
we
scale
it
down
I'm
still
concerned
on
what
we're
not
gonna
get
done
to
or
what
may
be
put
off,
but
I
understand
you,
the
staff
will
do
what
needs
to
be
done.
A
C
And
and
Rigo
so
from
what
I'm
hearing
is
that,
even
even
if
we
decide
that
number,
the
amount
of
work
is
nothing
really
diminished
for
staff.
So
what
I
heard
thrown
from
Jalandhar
mark
is
that,
even
if
we,
even
if
we
decide
the
number
they're
gonna
they're
gonna
go,
do
their
their
due
diligence
and
in
fact,
they're
they're
advising
us
not
to
pick
a
number,
because
we
have
no
idea
what
that
number
would.
But
eventually
it
decides
an
outcome.
Basically,.
A
And
not
to
put
words
in
this
task,
but
what
I
heard
was?
Yes,
we
want
to
have
polling.
Yes,
we
want
to
have
a
consultant.
Yes,
there's
the
cost
for
the
election.
Yes,
it
will
take
staff
time
and
in
order
to
bring
a
proper
product
back,
we're
asking
for
those
things
and
that's
what
we
need
to
do
so.
I
want
to
make
sure
I
didn't
put
words
in
marker
Jevons
mouth.
A
K
A
H
Yeah
no
I,
yeah
I
think
we
have
I
think
it's
I'm,
not
sure
exactly
where
you
were
mayor,
but
I
think
we
have
two
council
members
that
you
know
there
seem
to
be
leaning
towards
no,
so
I'm
not
I'm,
not
quite
sure.
If
we
can
massage
that
a
little
bit
more
I
mean
we
had
people
on
the
phone
today,
one
who
has
a
successful
business
in
Millbrae
interested.
We
had
two
other
members
of
the
public
on
the
phone
interested
in
possibly
opening
a
business.
So
the
interest
is
there.
H
We
again
have
seen
Pacifica.
We
have
seen
South
City,
which
I
believe
is
only
a
delivery
and
they're
closed
I.
Think
I
believe
under
$100,000,
with
the
staff
report
said,
which
would
more
than
likely
replace
any
cost
that
was
expended
in
just
a
year,
so
I
mean
I,
I'm,
not
sure
I,
guess
what
more
to
say,
because
really
it's
the
other
two
council
members
need
to
either.
Let
us
know
what
more
we
can
do
or
to
make
them
feel
more
comfortable.
With
this
vote.
A
A
Anything
else
from
can
we
go
around
one
last
time
and
then
I'll
end
up
and
then
we'll
just
I
think
we
can,
unless
there's
more
discussion,
I'm
not
trying
to
shorten
it.
I
just
think
we're
kind
of
going
around
the
same
same
item,
so
Michael
I'll
start
with
you
and
then
and
I'll
just
go
down
this.
The
list
that
I
have
here
on
the
screen.
C
B
A
K
K
Ask
them
he's
there.
Their
staff
is
right
here
that,
like
big
hears
when
I
worked
here
in
San
Bruno
1-1-
and
this
is
really
short
when
my
manager
came
to
me
and
said-
hey
I
got
another
project
for
you
to
to
inspect.
My
first
reaction
was
okay.
What
of
my
other
five
projects?
Do
you
watch
one
of
those?
You
don't
want
me
to
work
on
and
that's
the
same
thing
here
like
yeah,
we
came
up
with
something
else.
What
what
is
it?
K
That's
why
it's
so
important
have
priorities
right.
You
got
to
run
the
city
in
general
just
to
keep
it
going,
but
of
these
additional
activities
which
we're
going
to
talk
about
on
the
fourth,
you
know
what
what
can
we
do
and
and
then
we
should
set
what's
the
most
important
thing
so
I'll
see
if
we,
if
our
staff
can
give
us
a
little
bit
of.
K
A
D
Sure,
let's
parse
this
out
and
why
don't
I
begin
by
saying
you
know
some
part
of
me
is
uncomfortable
with
the
significant
discussion
around.
We
can't
do
X
because
of
staff
time
again
we're
public
servants
you're
the
elected
representatives
for
this
community.
We
take
our
priorities
in
our
direction
from
you.
Staff
does
lay
through
me,
as
a
city
manager
in
the
city
attorney
supports
you
as
well.
D
$50.00,
it
will
take
to
do
the
job
that
is
required
and
what
we
also
talked
about
was
you
know
it's
sort
of
not
always
what
comes
off
the
plate
because
oftentimes
things
are
added
to
the
plate
and
we
take
it
on,
and
we
still
do
everything
else
and
the
the
people
that
work
on
this
or
have
worked
on
bringing
this
item
before
you.
It's
your
city
attorney,
it's
your
city
manager,
it's
your
community
economic
development
director
and
it's
your
finance
director.
D
Those
are
the
core
people
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong
and
the
city
clerk
and
the
police
chief
that
worked
on
bringing
this
item
before
you,
nearly
all
of
those
will
be
involved
in
bringing
any
ballot
item
to
you
in
addition
to
supporting
consultants,
I
wouldn't
think
about.
What's
on
the
twenty
twenty
one
strategic
initiative
list,
because,
frankly,
all
that
stuff
is
for
next
fiscal
year.
D
You
know
things
will
get
done.
I
can't
say
that
if
you
say
this,
X
is
going
to
come
off
the
plate.
I
can't
sit
here
and
say:
if
you
say
yes
to
this,
Y
will
be
delayed
another
two
weeks.
I,
don't
have
that
level
of
a
detailed
analysis
and
it's
just
not
me
it's
sort
of
a
it's,
an
interdisciplinary
team
of
over
five
departments
that
work
to
give
you
the
professional
advice.
So
what
I
would
really
say
to
the
City
Council
is
I.
D
P
Know
the
I
said
earlier:
sorry
I,
you
know
mayor
Medina,
you
brought
this
forward.
Councilmember
Mason
and
Marty
Medina
you've
made
very
clear
statements
or
where
you're
at
I
think
you
guys
vote
on
it.
You
just
I
mean
you
decide
what
you
want
to
do.
I
think
you
know
we're
ready,
I,
just
I,
don't
know
why
we're
sitting
here
for
the
next
30
minutes,
trying
to
have
a
discussion
about
staff,
time
and
I.
P
Think
you
put
you
continue
to
put
staff
in
an
awkward
situation
because
they're
always
here
to
do
what
we
ask
him
to
do.
You
draw
what
it
takes
here.
It
is
it's
10:00
to
9:00
at
night
and
we
have
staff
that
should
be
at
home
for
their
safety.
They
should
be
at
home.
So
let's
just
move
forward
and
make
a
decision.
That's.
