San Bruno City Council Meeting September 14, 2021
5. Consent Calendar
A
With
that
we'll
move
on
to
consent,
calendar
item
five,
all
items
are
considered
routine
to
the
implement
and
were
implemented
at
an
earlier
council
meeting.
It
may
be
enacted
by
one
motion.
There
will
be
no
separate
discussion
unless
requested.
As
you
see,
we
have
items
a
through
e.
Is
there
anything
that
somebody
wants
to
have
completely
removed
for
a
separate
vote?
B
Yeah,
I
did
email,
melissa,
therm,
our
clerk
thurman
earlier
around
the
minutes
and
a
discrepancy
in
the
minutes.
She
suggested
that
we
table
the
minutes
until
the
next
council
meeting
so
5c
and
then
5
d.
If
we
could
just
have.
I
just
have
a
comment
on
5d
when
we
have
a
moment.
A
Okay,
so
asking
for
5c
to
be
tabled
until
the
next
council
meeting
and
then
by
the
comments.
So
I'm
seeing
nothing
for
separate
vote.
Is
there
anything
else
other
than
that?
Vice
mayor
medina.
C
Yeah
I
apologize
that
was
five
d
as
in
dog
or
b
as
in
I,
I.
C
Excellent
because
I
had
I
thought
it
was
interesting
that
receive
update
and
it
wasn't.
I
was
expecting
like
a
verbal
update,
which
we
normally
do,
because
I
do
have
a
couple
questions
on
it.
So
then
I
guess
it
would
be
pulling
item
b
for
some
questions.
A
Okay
d
has
already
been
well
you're,
saying
called
for
questions:
okay,
yeah,
not
a
separate
vote;
okay,
anything
else
from
colleagues.
A
So
right
now
we
would
have
items
a
b
and
e
or
okay
c
has
been
asked
to
have
it.
Abled
maybe
take
action
on
that,
but
let's
go
to
item
d
and
that
is
receive
update
on
the
city's
response
efforts
to
covet
19th
council
member
mason.
Here's
your
comments.
B
Please
yeah,
thank
you
and
just
an
update
on
the
council
comments
from
the
last
meeting.
I
had
requested
an
update
on
the
city's
efforts
around
staff,
and
I
know
that,
and
that
was
in
response
to
one
of
the
public
comments
we
received
and
although
we
did
receive-
and
I
thank
staff
for
the
plans,
we
received
hundreds
of
pages
of
plans
and
their
with
their
attachments
around
the
guidelines.
B
At
this
point
as
a
as
a
policy
making
council,
I
think
the
question
really
is
around
whether
what
are
we
looking
at
for
staff
as
everybody
returns
to
work
and
when
I
say
returns
to
work,
I
mean
return,
you
know,
maybe
somebody
who
might
be
telecommuting,
full-time
or
just
for
staff
who
has
already
returned
to
work
are:
is
the
city
looking
at
direction
from
council
or
is
the
city
already
working
on
a
plan
around
requirements
for
testing
weekly
or
vaccination
requirements?
B
It'd
be
good
to
know
where
the
city
is
with
that?
I
know
the
president
went
from
requiring
regular
testing
for
those
non-vaccinated
to
last
week
requiring
testing.
I
mean
requiring
full
vaccinations
of
the
executive
branch
and
even
extended
that
to
some
of
the
contractors,
so
in
a
number
of
cities
are
now
requiring
vaccinations
for
their
employees
and
I'd
really
just
like
to
know
where
the
city
stands
and
then
so
that
we
as
a
council,
have
have
a
better
idea
of
where
we
need
to
either
initiate
some
action
if
it's
not
already
initiated
on
the
staff.
B
Maybe
steph
is
working
on
something.
That's
coming
back
to
us
for
a
vote
or
at
this
point
whether
I
should
just
go
ahead
and
request
that
this
item
be
agendized
for
the
next
meeting,
so
we
can
have
a
full
discussion.
A
C
Yeah
yeah,
that's
fine,
so
it
is
great
that
the
vaccination
rates
in
in
the
county
are
on
the
high
side
in
the
90s.
C
I
was
wondering
if-
and
these
are
some
questions
that
were
asked
previously
from
from
the
public-
do
we
have
any
data
on
the
percentage
of
city
staff
that
have
been
vaccinated
and
kind
of
pigging
back
on
on
councilman
mason's
question?
Where
are
we
going
as
a
city
in.
C
Any
mandates
of
vaccinations
have
what's
the
plan
there.
Have
we
contacted
our
bargaining
units
to
see
what
their
feelings
on
it,
so
we
used
to
have
countywide
meetings
on
covid
and
that
that
went
away
and
are
we
waiting
for
the
for
the
county
to
provide
us
the
guidance?
So
let's
hear
what
staff
thinks
what
they
feel
and
then,
if
we
need
to,
then
we
as
councilwoman
mason
said
we
would
need
to
provide
some
direction
if
we
wanted
to
take
that.
So
those
are
my
comments
and
questions.
D
With
without
going
into
all
of
the
the
steps
that
the
staff
have
taken
internally,
others
get
straight
to
the
heart
of
the
part
of
the
question
which
is:
does
the
city?
Have
it
matched
a
mandatory
vaccination
requirement?
And
where
are
we
on
that?
So
as
a
city
as
I
informed
the
city
council,
we
are
looking
into
a
vaccination
requirement.
We
do
have
a
draft
of
a
vaccination
policy.
We
have
had
communications
with
the
union
about
that.
D
There
are
a
number
of
municipalities
across
the
bay
area
and
across
the
country
that
have
implemented
vaccination
mandates
within
our
county,
the
county
norview
a
number
of
the
cities,
I
think,
there's
only
actually
one
city
in
the
county.
That
has
a
vast
mandate.
D
We
are
in
conversations
with
the
other
cities
and
then
and
frankly,
we're
squarely
in
line
with
where
we
want,
where
I
believe
most
of
the
cities
are,
and
I've
talked
to
almost
all
the
city
managers
in
the
county
and
offered
to
to
be
a
leader
in
a
county-wide
program,
as
the
council
knows,
and
the
public
knows
that
the
president
recently
announced
and
directed
osha
to
develop
vaccination
requirements
for
employers
over
100
000.
That
will.
D
Apply
to
the
city
of
san
bruno,
we
do
have
our
draft
policy
that
we
are
evaluating.
We
are
socializing
internally
and
we
will
look
toward
the
osha
guidelines,
so
we're
going
to
roll
out
a
program
that
that
then
needs
sweeps.
We
very
early
on
offered
testing
and
voluntary
testing
that
continues
to
be
available.
D
We
are
also
in
the
process
of
up
scaling
our
testing
to
have
that
available
at
all
job
sites
and
on
a
mandatory
basis,
and
so
there
are
a
number
of
policies
that
I
know
the
council
has
received
that
have
been
active
and
absolutely
the
city
of
san
bruno
is
squarely
in
line
with
where
the
vast
majority
of
municipalities
are,
which
are
the
the
the
going
tide
that
I
believe,
and
I
believe
in
are
will
be
for
vaccination
requirements,
and
so
we're
absolutely
evaluating
that.
D
As
I
mentioned,
we
have
a
draft
policy
that
has
been
socialized
and
yes,
communications
have
occurred
with
the
union.
A
And
the
city
manager
you
had
said
a
hundred
thousand
was
that
the
correct
number,
as
far
as
those
who
have
appointments
of
over
a
hundred
thousand.
A
A
No,
no,
no!
No!
No!
It's
not
a
problem.
I
just
so
just
for
clarity
for
all
that.
Obviously
we
have
the
city
of
san
bernardino
and
a
lot
of
municipalities
in
the
county.
Not
all
do
have
over
100
employees,
so
osha's
regulations
and
standards
would
set
those
guidelines
also
for
the
city
as
well
any
other
questions
or
comments.
A
Mr
mayor,
let's
see
I
have
let
me
council
member
salazar
had
his
hand
up
and
then
we'll
go
to
the
city
manager.
Then
we'll
go
to
the
vice
mayor.
E
Thank
you,
mr
mayor,
so
I
just
I
wanted
to
make
a
point
that
you
know
it
is.
E
It
is
important
for
us,
as
elected
council
members
and
representatives
of
the
community,
to
understand
that,
although
we're
a
policy
making
body,
we
are
not
privy
to
making
every
policy
decision
for
the
city,
and
you
know
I
think
it's
important
that
we
understand
there
are
some
delineations
where
clearly
it's
it's
in
the
public's
interest,
that
professional
staff
make
decisions
and
not
elected
people,
and
you
know-
and
I
make
that
comment
because
you
know
if
we
look
at
what's
happening
nationwide,
where
elected
people
are
in
positions
where
they
can
make
public
safety
decisions.
E
It's
been
a
disaster
and
it's
been
so
haphazard
in
the
way
different
states
have
chosen
to
approach
what
we
do
with
with
this
pandemic,
and
you
know,
even
within
our
own
state,
we
see
political
people
bending
to
the
will
of
the
public
and
making
decisions,
not
necessarily
based
on
on
the
science,
which
is
what
we
should
be
doing,
but
rather
on
what
might
be
popular
or
you
know
what
might
keep
us
in
office.
So
you
know
just
I.
E
I
just
wanted
to
put
that
out
there
just
sort
of
as
a
cautionary
note
that
you
know
there
are
clearly
cases
where
we,
as
elected
people,
have
to
defer
to
professional
staff,
and
we
have
to
allow
the
people
that
are
closest
to
the
details
and,
frankly,
free
to
make
the
the
tough
decisions,
even
when
there's
something
that
we
wouldn't
necessarily
go
along
with.
So
you
know
I
just
wanted
to
put
that
out
there.
I
think
I
think
our
staff
has
been
doing
a
great
job
in
in
managing
this.
E
You
know
this
disaster
that
was
thrust
on
us
and
you
know
our
city
manager
who's,
also
where,
during
these
situations
wears,
the
hat
of
our
emergency
services
coordinator
has
has
been
very.
On
top
of
you
know,
making
sure
that
we're
addressing
the
issues-
and
you
know
our
public
safety
staff-
has
also
been
very
engaged,
very
responsive,
and
so
I
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
we
don't
go
down
a
path
where
we
start
trying
to.
E
A
Thank
you,
council,
member
city
manager.
Did
you
have
something
to.
D
Plan
on
there
was
another
question.
Thank
you
mayor.
There
was
another
question
by
council
member
medina,
which
is:
are
we
ready
to
release
the
stats
that
we
do
have
on
vaccinations,
a
city
of
police?
We
do
have
information
on
city
employees
that
are
vaccinated
at
this
point.
We
do
not
have
the
complete
universe,
and
so
we
will
be
acquiring
that
information
as
we
roll
out
our
vaccination
requirements.
D
But
at
this
point
I
do
not
have
that
information
to
respond
right
now
to
council
member
medina's
question
on
what
percentage
of
staff
are
vaccinated.
I
think
it's
also
and
thank
you
councilmember
salazar,
for
making
those
comments.
I
think
it's
also
mindful
to
know
that,
like
all
municipalities,
we
we've
been
going
through
a
roller
coaster
of
requirements.
There
there
was
a
a
brief
period
where
there
was
a
benefit
to
providing
your
employer
with
your
vaccination
status,
and
we
had
a
lot
of
municipalities
and
corporations
had
employees
do
that.
D
We
know
that
since
that
time
people
have
been
vaccinated,
but
have
not
provided
us
with
that
information.
So
we
want
to
have
a
process
to
collect
that
information,
to
ensure
that
we
are
releasing
accurate
information.
So
there's
not
a
misunderstanding:
when
data
is
released
on
the
vaccination
status
of
employees,
because
that
that
is
critical,
information
would
not
want
people
to
make
decisions
on
if
they're
going
to
utilize
city,
services
or
city
emergency
services
based
on
incomplete
data
and
so
recognize
that
we
are
having
those
conversations-
and
it
is
absolutely
not
just
me.
D
The
city's
emergency
operations
center
is
active,
has
been
active
for
the
last
year
and
a
half
and
your
fire
chief,
your
police
chief,
as
well
as
all
your
hr
personnel
and
personnel
from
across
the
city,
are
in
meetings
dealing
with
these
challenging
decisions
and
and
are
working
sort
of
do
fully
to
develop
policy
that
makes
sense
for
the
organization
and
that
protects
everyone's
public
health.
Thank
you.
C
B
Yeah,
I
just
want
to
say
I
appreciate
council
member
salazar's
comments
and
wanna.
Hopefully,
rest
assured
the
rest
assured
that
that
is
not
any
of
the
intentions
here.
I
think
the
intentions
here
are
to
save
lives,
especially
those
of
our
employees,
and
I
think
that,
what's
important
to
note
is
that
we
had
not
received
a
public
update
on
any
of
the
recommendations
or
anything
that
was
being
worked
on
within
the
city.
B
And
I
also
want
to
reiterate
council
member
salazar's
comments
that
I
do
think
the
city
has
done
a
great
job
up
until
now,
and
I
hope
we
continue
to
prioritize
the
safety
of
our
staff.
Thank
you.
A
And
hopefully
I'll
close
on
this
and
then
we'll
get
back
to
adopting
some
consent.
You
know
this
is
unprecedented,
of
course.
Obviously,
and
I
think
when
and
I
I
do
appreciate
councilmember
salazar,
I
believe
every
member
of
the
council
today
and
in
the
past
I
believe
that
the
administrative
staff
department
heads
the
assistant
manager,
the
city
manager,
city
attorney,
etc
always
have
had
and
still
and
have
the
well-being
of
the
staff.
A
I
don't
think
anyone
would
do
anything
to
with
malice
intent
or
not
caring
put
any
of
our
staff
at
risk.
There
are
avenues
for
staff
to
come
forward
and
I
think
I
like
more
of
the
adage
of
we're
here
to
assist
if
called
upon
where
we
can.
But,
however,
they
are
the
professionals
they
are
dealing
with
the
county.
They
are
dealing
with
the
community
and,
as
you
know,
the
dr
morrow
had
been
making
the
standards
and
the
county
was
leading
that
charge
and
now
they
deferred
to
the
state.
A
So
in
essence,
I
think
we
have
to
allow
them
who
are
in
those
areas
day-to-day
and
have
faith
and
confidence
in
our
team.
But
I'll
just
reiterate.
I
think
that
all
members
of
the
council
are
here
and
want
to
assist,
if
necessary
or
needed,
to
ensure
a
a
good
process
for
staff
for
their
well-being
and
safety,
and
also
just
to
know
that
we're
here
supporting
the
the
sl,
the
senior
leadership
team,
as
well
as
our
city
employees.
A
So
with
that,
what
I'm
going
to
ask
is
that
we
approve
consent
items
a
b,
d
and
e.
If
there
is
action
to
go
ahead
and
approve
those,
and
what
I
was
going
to
do
is
have
c
and
make
a
motion
to
have
that
table.
A
And
now
we
have
item
c,
which
was
the
regular
meeting
minutes
for
the
regular
meetings
of
october,
the
24th
2021.
And
if
we
can
have,
if
council
wishes
to
table
that,
as
was
indicated.
E
Before
we
take
a
vote,
can
would
it
be
okay
if
we
got
just
a
high
level
understanding
of
what?
What
was
inaccurate?
Because
you
know
if
we
do
delay
this,
then
the
the
minutes
aren't
published
and
there's
a
delay
in
having
that
on
the
website.
So
if
it's
something
minor
that
we
can
correct
as
part
of
the
motion,
I
would
prefer
that,
but
if
it's
something
more
substantive,
then
I'll
I'll
go
along
with
tabling.
A
We
did
have
a
motion
from
mason
and
consecutive
from
hamilton,
which
is
on
the
question
council
members.
Sellers
are
opposed
that
I
also
believe
our
the
city
clerk
is
now
dealing
with
the
election,
and
so
I
I
know
she
may
not
be
available,
but
councilmember
mason
did
you
want
to
expound
a
little
of
the
or
is
it
as
far
as
the
minutes
that
get
something
be
corrected
or
does
it
need
more
in-depth
review
by
the
clerk
and
others.
B
So
the
time
can
the
minutes
are
already
posted
as
part
of
this
packet.
The
one
of
the
changes
would
be
that
the
council
comments
aren't
complete,
and
so
as
much
as
there's
an
you
know,
we
have
these
action
minutes
that
we're
still
discussing
as
part
of
our
policies
and
procedures.
We've
never
really
talked
about
what
should
and
shouldn't
be
included
in
the
council
comments
and
because
not
all
council
comments
are
agendas.
B
A
And
I
believe
she
is
not
president
for
her
other
duties
as
the
elections
officer.
So
with
that
said,
we're
going
to
any
other
on
the
question.
So
we
have
a
motion
and
a
second
mason
hamilton
to
table
the
minutes
to
the
next
regular
council
meeting
roll
call.
Please.
A
Look
right
now
we
approve
the
consent
tabling
the
one
item,
but
we
also
have
a
member
of
the
public
and
we'll
say
that
it's
open
to
under
consent,
because
we've
kind
of
gone
through
that,
and
so,
if
there's
any
other
members
of
the
public
that
wish
to
speak.
If
you
could
raise
your
hand
and
I'd
ask
if
we
can
bring
mr
evangelist
into
the
meeting,
please
for
the
three
minutes.
G
Okay,
can
everybody
hear
me?
Yes,
thank
you,
I'm
just.
I
would
like
to
address
michael
councilmember
salazar's
comments
regarding
the
city's,
the
elected
officials,
responsibilities
toward
to
overseeing
the
covert
response
of
our
city
government.
We
elected
you
as
council
members
to
make
these
difficult
decisions.
G
It
would
be
like
passing
off.
I
mean
you
have
access
to
the
same
experts
that
you
would
rely
upon
the
city
manager
to
give
you
the
information
on.
I
think
it's
it's
really
shirking
of
duties
to
allow
these.
I
don't
believe
that,
for
instance,
I
I
I
would
be
surprised
if
anybody
on
staff
is
any
more
of
an
expert
about
how
to
respond
to
this
covet
than
you
you
are.
As
the
elected
official.
I
think
it's
really
your
responsibility
to
make
these
difficult
decisions.
G
A
Thank
you
for
your
comments,
I'm
seeing
no
other
public's
up
and
that
will
conclude
consent.
