San Bruno Regular Meeting June 8, 2021
7. Council Comments
A
With
that
we'll
go
ahead
and
move
on
to
item
seven
common
from
council
members
we're
going
to
go
to
first
one.
Mr
tom
hamilton.
B
All
right,
thank
you,
so
hopefully
this
will
take
long
to
to
discuss
and
thankfully
that
the
staff
will
appreciate.
This
is
an
item
that
requires
no
staff
input,
no
staff
work,
no
budget.
B
This
is
just
something
for
the
for
the
five
of
us.
So
in
earlier
this
year,
council,
member
salazar
and
I
co-hosted
a
virtual
town
hall
over
zoo.
It
was
well
attended.
B
It
was
well
received
and
I
think
it's
something
that
we
should
that
we
should
continue
to
offer
to
provide
the
public
with
an
opportunity
to
interact
with
us
more
directly
than
they
can
do
through
these
public
meetings
through
public
comment,
where
we
can't
respond
and
or
often
can't
respond
directly
and
just
to
kind
of
increase,
our
engagement
in
the
community,
the
the
these
town
halls
require
little
to
no
preparation,
at
least
at
least.
I
didn't
prepare
very
much
councilmember
sales
or
I
may
have,
but
it
was.
B
It
was
just
a
matter
of
of
scheduling,
a
zoom
and
getting
the
word
out
as
much
as
possible
for
people
to
show
up
and
just
being
available,
and
you
know
we
didn't
run
into
any
brown
act
issues
we
didn't.
You
know
there
was
no,
you
know
it
was.
It
was
really
you
know
low-key,
and
not
not
a
lot
of
of
of
preparation
required,
and
I
really
think
that
this
is
something
that
we
should
that
we
should
get
a
little
bit
more
organized
around.
B
So
it's
not
just
a
it's,
not
just
something
that
happens
on
the
win
when
the
two
of
us
decide
to
want
to
do
one,
and
it's
something
a
little
bit
more.
If
we
can,
if
we
can
come
together
on
how
to
do
it
and
try
to
offer
them,
maybe
once
a
quarter
and
also,
I
think
it
would
be
a
great
idea
for
us
to
to
you
know:
informally
vary
the
pairing.
B
So
it's
not
always
the
same
two
going
together
and
you
know-
and
you
know,
to
show
the
public
that
we're
one
that
we're
one
unified
team.
You
know
serving
them.
So
I
wanted
to
throw
that
out
there
and
get
get
your
get
folks
comments,
and
maybe,
if
we're
super,
lucky
a
commitment
for
another
another
pair
to
host
the
next
one.
A
Sorry,
thank
you,
mr
hamilton.
What
I
see
the
city
attorney
there
you
go.
It
is
here,
so
I'm
not
going
to
call
on
anybody
at
the
moment
calling.
C
So
I
didn't
have
time
to
to
do
a
lot
of
research,
but
I
think
there
is
a
concern
with
respect
to
the
brown
act
regarding
varying
the
pairings,
and
the
reason
for
that
is
because,
if
you
have
two
two
and
one
which
is
really
the
only
way
to
do
it
without
violating
the
brown
act,
if
the
first
two
people
then
incorporate,
let's
say
the
last
person
as
part
of
their
two,
then
they
really
got
three
people
potentially
discussing
and
participating
in
a
governmental
decision.
C
So
this
issue
has
come
up
in
the
composition
of
city
council
subcommittees
and
the
question
has
come
up:
can
we
rotate
council
members
in
and
out
of
those
subcommittees?
And
the
answer
is
generally
no,
if
they're
ad
hoc
subcommittees,
because
then
otherwise
they're
subject
to
the
brown
act?
So
so
that's
the
only
thought
that
occurs
to
me
at
the
moment.
C
I
don't
know
if,
if
other
cities,
for
example,
have
a
model
that
do
it
one
way
or
another,
we
could
certainly
look
into
that,
but
that
was
my
only
sort
of
immediate
thought
when
I
saw
this
so.
B
Given
that
I
mean
the
the
you
know,
there
are
we
don't
have
set
agendas,
and
you
know
we
just
kind
of
follow
the
follow
the
what
the
questions
that
the
that
the
public
are
asking.
So
you
know
given
that
that
that
council,
member
salazar-
and
I
did
one
of
these
in-
I
guess
it
was
march-ish-
maybe
it's
february-
I'm
not
remembering
now
and
if
I
were,
if
it
rotated
back
around
to
me-
and
I
were
to
pair
up
with
with
linda
on
the
next
one,
it
would
be
it's
this.
B
It's
it's
really
the
same.
In
my
mind,
it's
really
the
same,
the
same
kind
of
of
the
liberation
that
we
that
we
need
to
do
with
ourselves
to
make
sure
that
we're
not
violating
the
brown
act.
B
So
if,
if
there
was
something
that
we
discussed,
that
we
discussed
in
public
on
the
something
that
I
just
that
I
discussed
with
the
public
in
the
the
the
last
town
hall
that
I
did
and
then
you
know
you
know
eight
months
from
now,
I'm
in
another
town
hall
with
with
linda
and
that
same
subject
comes
up
again.
B
Maybe
I
would
have
to
say
you
know
what
I
can't
talk
about
that
one
and
let
linda
go,
but
I
you
know
I
don't
know
I
just
I
I'm
just
trying
to
figure
out
a
way
for
us
to
be
able
to
engage
with
the
public
without
without
falling
off.
You
know,
without
violating
the
rules,
but
also
not
being
in
the
in
the
you
know,
so
in
this
artificial
bubble
that
we're
in
that
makes
it
impossible
to
have
real
engagement.
C
C
In
that
circumstance,
you
might
might
have
a
meeting
on
january
1st
with
constituents
with
one
council
member
and
then
on
december,
31st
with
a
different
council
member
and
maybe
the
same
constituent
comes
back
and
raises
the
same
issue
and
then
all
of
a
sudden,
you
have
three
people
taking
a
position
on
a
particular
topic.
So
I
I
guess
I
at
the
moment.
I
can't
advise
in
favor
of
that,
but
I'm
happy
to
do
some
more
research.
C
If
the
city
council
does
wish
to,
you
know
to
go
ahead
and
implement
this,
I
can
come
up
with
with
some
advice
for
all
of
you
about
how
to
implement
it,
so
that
you
don't
run
a
foul
of
the
brown
hat.
But
but
I
I
do
think,
I'm
I'm
relatively
confident
that
it.
It
cannot
be
a
rotational
sort
of
thing,
but
I
really
would
need
to
look
at
that
further.
A
Thank
you,
city
attorney.
Vice
mayor
medina.
D
Yeah
I
I
was
gonna,
congratulate
you
tom
for
for
councilman
hamilton
for
for
coming
up
with
this
proposal.
I
see
our
cautious
city
attorney
doing
his
job,
trying
to
keep
us
from
inadvertently
breaking
the
brown
act.
So
I
guess
we
can
wait
to
hear
linda
and
I
did
one
I
don't
know.
Maybe
in
january
I
don't
remember
but
yeah
your
effort
to
to
want
to
engage
the
community.
D
E
Yeah,
I
was
gonna
say
thanks
for
putting
this
on
the
agenda
council
member
hamilton.
I
think
my
suggestion
that
I
would
have
is
that
we
have
a
listening
session
with
the
entire
council
as
a
study
session,
it's
similar
to
town
hall,
but
we're
listening
to
what
residents
want
and
I
do
hear
the
city
attorney
and
maybe
we
focus
on
things
that
have
already
been
voted
on.
E
So
we
can
discuss
them
if
they're
not
going
to
come
before
us
again,
but
I've
had
a
couple
of
town
halls,
virtual
town
halls
and-
and
I
generally
give
more
updates
to
try
to
avoid
brown
act
situations.
So
that
would
be
a
suggestion.
A
Okay,
mr
salazar
and
I
haven't
commented
just
for
me
quickly.
I
know
one
of
the
best
ones
I
had
actually
well.
It
was
obviously
before
kovid
was
in
person,
and
I
have
one
scheduled
next
month
and
a
part
of
town
I
have
I
haven't
been
at,
but
it's
it's
gonna
be
outside,
but
it
was
in
regards
to
scott
grayset
and
it
was
specific,
specific
topic.
50
people
showed
up
notes.
I
had
not
had
not
seen
before
so,
and
we
were
very.
A
It
was
very
based
on
that
one
topic
and
then
I
stepped
around
after,
and
if
people
wanted
to
talk
about
parking
or
something
different,
then
we
did
that
the
one
that
I
know
was
done
with
dave
pine.
What
I
what
I
found
interesting
is
everybody
wanted
that
individual
time,
because
it
was
an
individual
situation
to
them
and
they
really
was
more
personalized
and
they
didn't
want
a
group
setting.
So
that
seemed
to
be
this
has
fallen
on
on
the
town
hall.
A
The
topics
need
to
be
listed
to
my
knowledge,
so
they
can
be
more
driven
in
that
way
and
we've
gone
to
to
listening
campaigns
or
other
things
that
we're
just
there.
We
listen
we're
hearing
the
community
on
a
topic
that
is
gathering
data,
or
it's
upcoming
too,
just
to
hear
from
the
folks.
So
anyway,
council
member
salazar,
do
you
have
any.
F
No,
I
mean
it,
I
hadn't
thought
about.
You
know
the
potential
for
the
the
brown
act
violation
and
you
know
when
I,
when
I
reached
out
to
tom,
to
do
this.
You
know
laura
davis
and
I
had
done
a
couple
and
tom
was
brand
new
and
I
figured
okay,
it's
a
nice
way
to
sort
of
come
up
with
something
that
we
can
partner
on.
F
You
know,
marty
and
I
worked
on
the
subcommittee
to
come
up
with
fees
a
few
years
back
and
you
know
we
got
to
kind
of
work
offline.
You
know
we
just
met
down
at
grand
leader
and
hashed
out
this
thing
on
a
saturday
morning,
so
I
think
those
personal
relationships
are
important
council
member
mason
and
I
are
on
the
heart
committee
together.
So
we've
worked
on
a
couple
of
projects
there.
F
I
worked
on
a
couple
of
projects
with
the
mayor,
so
it
is
nice
to
have
those,
but
you
know
if
doing
these
public
meetings
with
that
conversation
right,
the
conversation's
not
controlled,
like
council
members
brought
up
it
is,
it
is
risky.
So
as
much
as
I
enjoy
those
engagements
with
the
community,
it
seems
like
the
safest
way
to
do.
F
It
is
for
us
to
do
them
individually
and
then,
let's,
let's
find
a
way
to
increase
the
pairings
on
subcommittees
and
projects
that
where
we
can
each
work
together,
so
we
can
get
that
that
that
personal,
you
know
we
can
build
on
those
relationships
which
really
helps
in
forming
a
cohesive
council
in
the
long
run.
So
those
are
my
thoughts.
A
B
A
Advice
that
was
just
easier
city
attorney,
and
so
we
got
some
advice
and,
like
you
said,
you
might
be
able
to
come
back
but
have
some
time
to
look
into
it
and
give
some.
So
one.
B
One
final
comment
on
on
this:
I'm
I'm
going
to
assume
that
the
answer
is
going
to
be:
don't
do
it
it's
too
risky.
So
if,
if,
if
then,
you
know
that
as
councilmember
salazar
says
that
that
leaves
us
with
having
to
do
them
solo,
then
I
then
I
would
want
to
make
sure
that
we
are
doing
them
and
that
we
would
you
know,
maybe
we
maybe
we
establish
a
rotation
where
we
each
do
one
each.
You
know,
however
many
months
or
whatever
we
can.
B
We
can
hash
that
out,
but
just
to
make
sure
that
they
happen
just
to
make
sure
that
we
are
engaging,
and
maybe
we
make
a
commitment
to
each
other
that
if,
if,
if
you,
mr
mayor,
are
doing
one
next
month
that
all
of
us
get
the
word
out
that
you
know
that
that's
happening,
and
you
know
just
to
try
to
make
sure
that
everybody
you
know
knows
that
we
are
trying
to
reach
out
and
we're
trying
to
engage
with
the
community
and
provide
these
opportunities.
A
Have
to
say
thank
you,
seeing
them
on
their
hands
and
and
thank
you
city
attorney
and
thank
you
for
what
what
councilmember
hamilton
is
predicting,
but
we'll
wait
to
hear
a
little
bit
more
and
mr
hamilton
was
there
anything
else
for
you
this
evening
under
council
comments.
B
No,
the
only
other
thing
that
I
was
going
to
bring
up
was
already
brought
up
earlier
was,
which
was
the
the
the
the
vaccination
event
through
the
the
san
mateo
county?
Fair,
it's
an
awesome
opportunity
for
folks,
so
I
might
as
well
plug
it
again.
If
you
haven't
got.
If
you
haven't
got
your
vaccine,
you
can
get
your
vaccine
for
free
and
bring
and
bring
your
family
get
into
the
fair
for
free
and
they'll.
Even
give
you
some
some
free
food
and
rides.
B
So
it's
a
pretty
good
deal
so
take
advantage
of
that
if
you're
listening
and
haven't
had
your
vaccine
yet.
C
Well,
I
I
was
just
going
to
say:
let
me
let
me
work
with
the
city
manager
and
we'll
come
back
with
a
series
of
options
for
you
to
implement.
You
can
then
decide
how
you
want
it.
A
E
Yeah-
and
I
was
also
gonna
say
so,
just
I
guess
circle
on
that
conversation,
I'm
looking
for
some
notes,
but
also
another
thought
is
just
to
group
that
in
with
what
we're
working
on
under
the
stronger
governance
since
we're
having
that
conversation
anyway,
like
how
do
we
make
it
a
regular
reoccurring
event
and
make
it
part
of
that
larger
conversation,
I
I
didn't
want.
I
want
to
make
sure
this
didn't
get
lost.
E
That
mentioned
during
her
presentation
that
they
got
out
of
a
consent
decree,
and
I
know
that
that
takes
a
lot
of
work
and
a
lot
of
follow-up.
So
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
that
we
commend
staff
for
doing
that
and
we
do
not
want
to
be
in
consent,
degrees
and
it's
hard
to
get
out
of
them.
E
So
if
you
can
make
it,
it
may
be
worth
your
your
your
day
or
your
hour
to
enjoy
the
reopening
celebration.
Thank
you.
A
Any
other
council
members
with
comments
this
evening
vice
mayor
now,
I'm
just
going
to
say
to
show
that
we're,
as
the
councilmember
mason
said
about
the
15th
of
canada
but
sunday
going
to
the
city
park
and
watching
once
again,
some
traditions
back
the
kiwis
the
their
last
year,
playing
at
diamond
2
and
then
having
the
traditional
parkside.
A
St
roberts
baseball
game
was
nice
to
see
some
community
out
and
some
things
returning
to
some
normalcy
but
outside
doing
the
right
thing
so
kind
of
nice
to
see
that
we're
getting
there.
So
anyway,
with
that
said.
On
a
personal
note,
I
I
will
see
all
of
you
tomorrow
at
five
o'clock
and
with
that
we're
going
to
go
ahead
and
adjourn
to
the
next
regular
city
council
meeting,
which
will
be
held
on
june
22nd
2021
at
seven
o'clock
via
zoom
everybody
enjoy
your
evening
and
we'll
see
you.
