San Bruno Special City Council Meeting 12-15-09 4. City Council Applicant Scott Buschman
B
B
I've
also
worked
with
some
of
the
staff
and
department
heads
current
department,
heads
and
I
think
that
they
would
tell
you
that
I've
always
courteous
and
professional
when
dealing
with
them
I'm
a
successful
local
small
business
owner
for
about
25
years.
The
newspapers
which
asks
what's
your
occupation,
so
you
put
photographer
photographer,
doesn't
say
it
though
again
I'm,
not
just
a
photographer.
I
have
100
bosses
every
year.
I
am
responsible.
I
need
to
listen
to
each
of
my
clients
so
that
I
turn
around
a
product
that
they
that
they,
like
that.
B
My
schedule
is
flexible
and
I
can
make
the
time
that
is
necessary
for
this
also.
I
personally
know
many
of
the
peninsula's
civic
leaders
and
elected
officials
from
the
neighboring
city
council,
members
to
the
board
of
supervisors,
to
our
state
assemblyman,
jerry
hill
to
our
us,
congresswoman,
jackie,
speier
and
I'm
willing
and
able
to
sit
down
and
talk
with
them
about
issues
of
san
bruno
and
ready
to
advocate
for
our
city
when
necessary.
B
San
Bruno's
mission
statement
says
the
city
of
San
Bruno
exists
to
provide
exemplary
services
for
our
community
that
enhance
and
protect
the
quality
of
life.
If
you
look
at
my
record,
I
think
you'll
agree
that
I've
been
trying
to
enhance
and
protect
the
quality
of
life
in
San
bernal
for
years
and,
finally,
I
think
I
possess
the
same
core
values
of
our
city,
including
integrity,
teamwork,
friendly
friendliness
and
commitment
to
community
I.
Appreciate
you
considering
me
for
this
appointment.
Thank
you.
I
give.
C
B
Really
excited
I've
been
trying
to
attend
all
the
downtown
and
transit
corridor
plan
meetings.
The
committee
meetings,
not
just
the
public
meetings,
I'm,
really
excited
about
that
taking
off
again
there's
great
opportunity
for
growth,
there's
great
opportunity
for
a
revitalization
of
the
downtown.
So
that's
one
thing
I'd
like
to
see
five-year
plan.
B
You
know
a
library
would
be
nice.
It
gets
down
to
the
to
the
dollars
and
cents
in
the
budget
of
it.
I
think
it's
important,
though
whether
it's
the
downtown
plan
or
any
other
plan.
We
really
do
need
to
take
the
time
and
bring
our
bring
our
business
areas
up
as
much
as
you
can
enhance
them,
even
if
it's
not
the
whole
plan,
even
if
it's
not
bringing
everything
you
know
all
the
high
rise
or
all
the
density
that
that
it's
some
that
calls
for.
B
We
need
to
do
what
we
can
now
to
enhance
the
business
areas
so
that
we
continue
to
attract
customers
edge
and
that
we
have
services
here
that
our
residents
will
appreciate
too,
and
they'll
keep
coming
back
and
and
shopping
and
dining
and
in
our
area,
oh
it
well.
The
great
separation
I
mean
that's
again:
five-year
plan,
we're
gonna,
have
a
nice
grade.
Separation,
it'll,
hopefully
it'll,
be
something
that
that
we
that
look
nice
it'll
be
like
a
great
gateway
to
our
city.
To
okay.
C
B
It's
you
know
unit.
You
would
hope
that
people
would
understand
that
as
a
councilperson,
you
make
the
hard
decisions.
That
is
your
job.
You
need
to
make
sure
that
the
city
is
fiscally
responsible
and
you
do
have
to
make
those
hard.
Those
hard
calls-
and
that's
you
know,
I'm
willing
to
make
those
hard
calls.
A
B
B
You
don't
want
to
save
money
and
lose
response
time.
That's
you
know.
That's
not
acceptable.
I'm
I
know
every
couple
years
that
the
shared
response
are
the
consolidation.
An
idea
comes
up,
I,
don't
see
why
we
should
not
talk
about
it.
Feels
great
to
you
know,
go
talk
to
millbrae
or
Burlingame
or
Hillsboro,
whoever
it
is
and
and
let's
see
what
the
plans
are.
Let's
see
if
there's
opportunity,
for
you
know,
maybe
it's
not
for
cities.
Maybe
it's
just
two
cities
willing
to
look
at
it
just
again.
The
bottom
line.
A
B
You
know
again
with
the
budget
as
it
is
it's
kind
of
a
backhanded
way,
but
we
need
to
make
sure
our
public
safety
doesn't
hurt
in
the
next
five
years
because
of
we
make
sure
public
safety
does
hurt,
because
the
budget
so
we
need
to,
we
need
to
maintain
those
response
times
and
that
service
and
number
3
I'm
worried
about
the
grade
separation.
You
know
again,
you
would
hope
that
it
comes
through
and
we're
not
too
disrupted
in
and
what's
left
is
something
nice,
but
it's
just.
D
I
go
Scott
you
one
of
the
first
thing
you
stated
is
that
you're,
respected
team
player
and
I
mean
I,
know
you
and
we've
worked
together.
Can
you
give
an
example
of
where
you
have
been
a
team
player,
even
though
you
may
not
have
agreed
with
what
the
decision
of
the
team,
and
how
did
you
deal
with
that?
Well,.
B
I'll
use
the
chamber
as
an
example:
we've
set
every
year
we
had
an
annual
planning
meeting
and
we
prioritized
the
goals
of
the
chamber
and
you
know
sometimes
the
events
that
we
decide
to
participate
in
work.
The
events
that
I
thought
were
were
that
important,
but
I
was
right
there
with
him
because,
as
a
group,
we
decided
that
and
I
I
stand
with
the
group.
I
stand
with
that
decision
and
I
do
whatever
it
takes
from.
You
know
the
lowest
job
to
the
highest
jamun
and
I
want
to
make
sure
that
job
gets.
B
D
B
I
would
still
participate
with
you
know
in
this
in
this
environment
with
you,
and
that
has
happened
in
and
you
know,
I
know
that
you
as
a
board
has
to
again
prioritize
and
make
those
decisions.
I'm
willing
to
you
know
be
part
of
that
and
again
I
I
wouldn't
be
one
that
would
say.
Oh
I'm
gonna
take
like
we.
A
D
My
game,
yeah
and
lastly,
I
believe
you're,
familiar
with
being
that
you
ran
for
the
council
few
years
ago
and
so
you're
familiar
with
the
operations
of
the
city,
and
you
realize
what
we've
been
going
through
the
last
few
years,
certainly
let's
say
weaken
coming.
Let's
say
you
sit
up.
You
sit
up
here
and
in
the
next
few
months,
Jim
O'leary
comes
forward
and
tells
us
that
we
have
a
half
a
million
dollar
shortfall
and
we've
laid
out
I
mean
we've
done
for
a
low
we've
done
SN.
D
B
Big
numbers
for
a
half
million,
honestly
I,
don't
know,
but
but
here's
what
I
you
know:
I've
looked
through
the
budget,
I
I've
skimmed
through
it
I
plan
to
sit
down
and
read
the
whole
thing
cover
to
cover
I've
read
drafty
IRS
in
the
IRS,
though
that's
not
a
problem.
The
things
that
pop
out
at
me
there's
some
overtime,
there's
a
big
overtime
issues
in
there
and
again
these
are
things
that
you
probably
look
through.
B
B
First
for
revenue,
one
of
the
ideas
that
I
thought
of
and
then
noticed
that
on
the
National
League
of
Cities,
is
you
identify
those
businesses
that
are
in
town
that
are
operating
without
business
licenses
and
permits
and
that
that
could
bring
you
in
some
more
additional
revenue
and
the
last
piece
is
again
not
to
second-guess
because
I
haven't
been
I
haven't,
sat
down
when
you've
made,
the
decisions
is
I,
know,
usually
we're
talking
about
the
half-million
or
the
or
the
250,000
or
100,000.
So
so,
if
that's,
what
you've
been
looking
at?
B
That's
what
departments
have
been
looking
at
and
department
heads
been
looking
at,
my
thought
is
sometimes
you
know
and
I
noticed
as
a
small
business
owner.
Sometimes
it's
those
those
little
dollars
that
add
up.
So,
if
you're
looking
for
the
big
things,
maybe
it's
harder
sometimes!
But
if
you
say
okay,
let's,
let's
we
have
what
200
employees
in
the
city.
Let's,
let's
find
one
hundred
ways
to
save
a
thousand
dollars.
You've
just
saved
a
hundred
thousand
dollars.
If
half
of
your
employees
come
up
with
an
idea.
