A

B
C
Correct
mayor,
that's
that's
what
so
we
got
john
and
jill
and
team
and
others
fantastic.
B
A
E
F
D
G
C
G
And
which
would
also
include
so
that
would
be
library
and
public
portion
of
public
works
portion
of
code
for
pbce.
So
it's
a
little
bit
a
little
bit
broader
there
than
than
just
parks
and
live
live.
B
Okay,
I
I
had
a
couple
of
questions.
You
know
as
well,
folks
are
thinking
about
and
getting
warmed
up,
one
related
to
the
extent
to
which
we're
really,
depending
on
an
awful
lot
of
american
rescue
plan
money
for
pr
s
programs
and
by
the
way
I
appreciate
very
much
the
consolidation
of
our
beautify
efforts
under
one
department
and
one
director.
B
So
I
appreciate
see
manager's
office
and
john
and
everybody
working
together
to
make
that
happen
from
what
I
can
tell
it's
about:
11
million
dollars
going
to
the
budget
that
we're
relying
on
of
arp
money
to
get
us
through
here,
and
I
know
that
a
big
chunk
of
that
is
for
beautify
efforts.
I
think
a
little
more
than
seven
million
and
I
know
there's
another
chunk.
That
is,
I
presume,
for
the
or
actually
was
stated
close
to
four
million.
B
I
believe
for
some
of
the
activation
efforts
and
I'm
wondering
was
there
other
arp
money
that
we're
relying
on
for
pr
s
services
or
is
it
just
in
those
two
programs.
G
I
think
that's
the
bulk
of
them
there.
I
think
those
are
the
ones
that
we
that
we
currently
have
budgeted.
So
we
do
have
some
extension
of
a
number
of
programs,
so
in
indirectly
the
american
rescue
plan
funds,
you
know
help
us
continue
some
things
that
have
been
funded
on
a
one-time
basis
to
continue
funding
on
a
one-time
basis
like
project
hope,
there's
those
three
sites
of
project
hope
like
police
activities,
league,
welsh
and
east
ridge
programming.
G
So
you
know
not
that
I
don't
think
it's
any
more
explicit
in
the
budget
yet
reliance
on
american
rescue
plan
for
those
services,
but
still
a
decent
chunk
that
are
reliant
on
one-time
funding.
That's
a
good
way
to
characterize
it.
B
John,
oh,
okay
and
then
john
with
regard
to
the
the
funding.
That's
there
for
the
abbierto
and
the
viva
parks.
I
know
substantial
amount,
but
it's
only
one
time
which
I
know
limits
your
ability
to
do
a
lot
of
extended
work,
and
I
guess
the
question
is
given
you
know.
I
know
we
had
challenges
from
the
pandemic
and
getting
out
there
and
resuming
maintenance
and
some
of
the
work
and
I
think
sounds
like
we're
pretty
well
caught
up.
But
let
me
know
if
that's
not
true,
john
at
some
point.
B
I
imagine
if
our
goal
is
to
try
to
encourage
people
to
get
out
and
use
their
parks
more
there's
going
to
be
more
demands
on
the
parks,
more
maintenance
needed,
and
can
we
look
at
that
funding
flexibly
to
potentially
be
able
to
move
dollars
over
on
some
parks?
Maintenance?
If
that's
what's
needed,
if
we're
really
trying
to
encourage
folks
to
get
out.
G
G
H
Staffing
that
goes
with
it.
1.2
million
of
it
goes
to
arts
organizations
so
sort
of
take
that
off
the
top,
we're
more
like
at
three
million
on
a
programmatic
level,
and
then
it's
a
hundred
activations
over
the
next
year
park
park,
activations
and
four
viva
kai
sj's.
H
H
Oh,
it
also
includes
44,
000
per
council
district
for
each
council
district
to
throw
a
festival
or
a
fair
or
something.
B
Right:
yeah,
okay!
Well
thanks
john
other
questions
from
the
council.
I
Sorry,
I
don't
know
what
was
happening
to
my
device
here
apologize
for
the
delay.
I
have
some
questions
under
neighborhood
services.
I
Okay,
so
let
me
get
myself
centered,
you
know
we
earlier.
We
we
we
heard
from
transportation
and
one
of
the
things
that
that
I've
been
talking
about
is
engagement
and
how
do
we
engage
folks
and
and
part
of
the
part
of
the
memo
that
councilmember
spars
and
myself
produced
and
was
approved
by
counselor
counsel,
but
at
the
mayor's
in
the
mayor's
budget,
along
with
the
mayor's
budget?
H
Sure
in
it
and
I'll
ask
deputy
andrea
flores
shelton
to
step
in
in
a
minute
here,
but
the
basics
are
we've:
we've
mapped
out
two
options:
the
nba
should
be
coming
coming
out
soon,
we're
pretty
much
towards
the
final
bit
of
it
here.
There's
two
options:
one
where
we
sort
of
more
directly
tie
it
to
project
hope
in
those
activities
and
and
one
where
we
sort
of
manage
it
from
a
distance
andre.
You
want
to
give
a
couple
details.
There.
D
Sure,
thank
you,
council.
Can
you
hear
me
great?
Thank
you
councilmember
adenis.
Yes,
what
we've
moved
forward
through
the
cmo
as
john
mentioned,
or
two
concepts
for
you.
So
what
we
heard
loud
and
clear
through
this
last
year
is
really
about.
How
do
we
reach
our
hard
to
reach
communities
and
how
do
we
look
at
it
holistically
also
from
a
community
development
model?
So
what
we've
put
forward
is
either
a
concept
of
a
promotora,
hopefully
a
multilingual
resident
leadership,
outreach
and
education
approach
that
could
be
used.
D
You
know
city-wide
and
not
tied
to
project
hope
and
it
could
be
used
for
a
variety
of
community
priorities
or
issues,
and
that
would
be
something
that
we
would
do
a
multi-year,
because
a
one-time
approach
wouldn't
really
be
effective,
so
that
that's
concept,
one
concept
two
would
be
again:
a
promotora
contract
community,
a
community-based
contract,
but
really
focused
on
enhancing
in
the
existing
project,
hope
areas
and
being
able
to
scale
and
build
the
leadership
component.
The
resident
leadership
component
in
the
existing
project
hope.
I
Great,
I
appreciate
that
you
know
I.
I
suspect
that
that
each
department
should
really
have
it
a
promotora
program
transportation.
It
sounds
like
contracts
out
to
a
non-profit
which
really
makes
sense,
because
you
know
that
some
non-profits
are
nestled
into
our
communities
and
know
those
communities
the
best,
because
they've
been
providing
services
one
one,
and
so
I
I
I
think
not
only
is
it
I'm
excited
to
see
what
these
two
prospects
could
be,
but
I
think
we
could.
I
We
need
to
continue
to
expand
our
engagement
strategy
throughout
the
city,
as
we've
learned
that
I
think
this
is
one
of
the
areas
where
we
might
need
to
work
a
little
bit
more
in.
I
I'm
going
to
into
our
library
department,
I
know
I've
asked
for
a
logic
model.
I
think
that's
coming
and
there's
two
things
that
that
I
really
would
like
to
see
in
and
hopefully
in
this
budget,
is
that
we
are
engaging
with
our
community
to
bring
them
into
our
library
department.
A
lot
of
our
families
are,
you
know
they
self
select.
I
They
decide
to
go
to
the
library
as
an
alternative
either
because
they
don't
have
the
funds
or
for
whatever
reasons,
or
they
just
really
enjoy
our
libraries,
because
they're
awesome
and
I
think
what
we
need
to
do
is
is
engage.
Our
community
typically
does
not
see
a
library
as
a
resource
who,
who
we
may
want
to
you,
know,
engage
in
and
probably
are
more
comfortable
in
person
rather
than
online.
I
I'm
still
hearing
from
superintendents
that,
even
though
they've
made
some
progress
with
our
parents
on
online
capabilities
that
they're
still
not
there
in
in
a
way
that
will
allow
us
to
count
on
them
to
subscribe,
to
classes
and
all
of
those
things.
So
how
are
we
moving
towards
that
kind
of
a
framework
jill
where,
where
we
are
going
out
to
the
community
and
bringing
them
in
a.
F
Really
good
question:
I
think
that
the
model
that
we
have
utilized
in
the
past
was
working
through
trusted
partners
in
the
community
and
and
and
having
you
know.
We've
talked
a
lot
about
what
does
a
really
effective
outreach
campaign,
look
like
or
outreach
program,
because
I
think
you're
right.
We
always
talk
about.
F
We
definitely
want
to
serve
our
users,
but
how
do
we
know
who
our
non-users
are
and
how
do
we
get
them?
The
awareness
of
the
programs-
and
so
I
think
in
the
you
know,
post
covid.
It
allows
us
to
kind
of
reset
because
we
have
done
so
much
work
online,
but
we
really
do
need
to
be
thinking
about
how
we're
reaching
out
into
the
communities
and
both
utilizing
our
partnerships.
F
You
know
I
just,
however,
just
messaged
john,
that
you
know
I
would
love
to
partner
on
the
promotora
program
and
I
think
we're
open
to
further
discussion
about
how
to
improve
the
the
partnerships
and
the
outreach
that
we've
typically
done
through
things
like
our
maker
spaceship,
and
you
know
we
do
a
lot
of
programs
out
in
community
facilities.
G
F
Affordable
housing,
you
know
spaces
or
malls
or
other
places
where
we
might
run
into
families
and
people
who
are
not
aware
of
our
programs.
So
we've
done
a
lot
in
the
past.
We're
actually
reinitiating
conversation
with
a
couple
of
local
malls,
one
of
which
I
really
want
to
talk
to
you
about
is
eastridge,
so
we'd
really
like
to
sort
of
re-envision.
What
does
that
look
like
once
we're
reopened.
I
I
really,
I
love
that,
and
you
know
what
those
in-person
engagement
events
that
we
have
people
look
forward
to
them,
and
you
know
that
in
my
area,
especially
around
welch
and
metal,
fair
they're,
they're,
really
a
desert
for
agencies
and
services.
It's
not
like
they're!
You
know
smack
in
the
middle
of
the
east
side,
where
mayfair
someone's
made
her
may
may
target
them,
they're
a
little
outside
of
that
boundary,
and
so
because
of
that
they're,
always
at
you
know
at
the
tail
end
of
services.
I
So
so
anyway,
so
I'm
hoping
to
see
budget
line
items
that
connect
that
and
making
sure
that
we
are
providing
those
type
of
engagement
opportunities
for
our
families.
It
is,
is
what
I'm
ultimately
looking
for
is.
I
know
that
you've
been
working
really
hard
through
the
logic
model
development,
as
well
as
just
making
sure
that
our
our
families
are
connected
to
the
library
and
I'd
love.
I
To
see
more
of
that
happen,
so
I'm
going
to
also
ask
a
little
bit
about
the
child
care,
I'm
looking
forward
to
the
mba
on
that
and
our
after
school
programming.
I
H
The
will
definitely
get
through
summer
it'll.
You
know,
there's
there's
a
lot
of
money
moving
around
on
various
things,
including
the
federal
dollars
and
state
dollars
that
that
may
present
opportu
additional
opportunities
to
keep
going,
but
we're
anticipating
by
the
time
we
get
to
fall.
We
will
have
to
start
bringing
the
fees
back
into
the
into
the
equation
unless
we're
able
to
identify
other
sources
of
revenue.
Andre
did
you
want
to
add
anything.
D
Yeah,
I
would
say
thank
you
yeah.
I
would
say
that
actually,
the
cdbg
funds,
we
have
included
them
in
our
scholarship
for
next
year,
so
I
think
we
will.
We
should
have
covered
the
rock
after
school,
so
rock
and
learn
will
will
go
away.
We
won't
be
doing
all
day
next
year,
we'll
just
be
doing
after
school
because
of
the
assumption
school
will
be
back
in
session,
but
we
will
be
able
to
utilize
cdbg
for
next
year,
scholarship,
anticipating
still
economic
struggles
for
families
and.
I
I'm
guessing
an
expansion
of
that
rock
program,
because
currently
the
rock
program
is
a
cost
recovery
and
so
they're
at
schools
where
people
families
can
afford
to
to
apply
for
that
program
and
receive
it.
But
in
this
case
I
I'm
hoping
that
extent
that
an
expansion
of
that
program
is
targeting
some
of
the
title.
One
schools
that
typically
can't
afford
to
have
that.
I
know
that
there's
a
lot
of
aces
programs
and
san
jose
learns,
but
really
wonderful.
I
San
jose
learns
programs
in
our
after-school
schools,
but
I'll
talk
specifically
about
my
district
and
possibly
other
districts,
just
like
mine
that
when
you
talk
about
evergreen
school
district,
it's
not
recognized
as
a
school
that
a
district
that
has
title
one
schools.
We
have
seven
title
one
schools,
and
so
you
all
know
what
that
translates
to
so
so
I'm
I'm
really
hoping
that
we
can
expand
to
cover
some
of
the
families
who
are
really
hurting
now.
I
That
would
never
consider
rock
and
then
also
just
moving
a
little
towards
san
jose
learns
now
that
I'm,
I
I
just
triggered
something
that
I
was
thinking
about
is
is
I
know
that
that
there
is
a
a
particular
model
over
at
mount
pleasant
that
integrates
what
ace's
framework
does,
but
they're
also
doing
a
a
kind
of
a
hybrid
with
a
stanford
research,
and
I
can't
remember
the
the
general
the
reach
the
researcher's
name,
but
what
it
does.
I
It
provides
this
a
feedback
loop
for
the
instructors
to
change
their
educational
strategies
with
their
children
in
the
classroom
in
terms
of
tutoring
and
I'm
always
been
hoping
to
marry
rock
program
with
tutoring
and,
I
think,
is
really
exciting.
John.
You
know
we
talked
a
little
bit
about
this.
This
is
this
is
where
I
think
some
of
our
our
school
districts
are
trying
things
out
and
if
it's
working,
let's
take
some
of
what
they're
working
and
see
if
it
applies
to
other
places
because
it
you
know
it
has.
I
Obviously
you
know
the
reading
and
writing
and
and
specifically
math,
and
so
I
know
in
the
last
san
jose
learns
update.
There
was
a
discrepancy
between
what
you
know:
white
students,
a
verse
and
asian
students
versus
latino
and
african-americans
in
terms
of
their
academic
improvements
and
learning
losses,
and
so
we
we
know
we
we
see
this
in
past
patterns.
So
how
do
we
address
this?
And
this
is
part
of
you-
know
race
and
equity,
to
see
if
there
is
a
ethnic,
a
race
factor
that
we
address.
I
That
factor
and
I
think,
mount
pleasant
school
district
is
actually
doing
a
really
good
job
in
in
in
addressing
that,
because
they
have
that
that
feedback
loop
that
I
think
in
maybe
in
other
schools,
is
missing.
So
I
know
my
time
is
up.
I
will
raise
my
hand
once
again
and
continue
to
ask
my
questions.
Thank
you.
J
Yeah
thanks
can
I
just
have
a
quick
question
and
maybe
pass
it
right
back
councilman
right
on
us,
so
my
question
was
in
regards
to
the
roosevelt
roller
rink
snapping.
I
see
a
reduction
there
and
some
vacancies
just
was
curious.
It
does
say
no
impact
on
the
current
service
level
is
anticipated.
J
I
wanted
to
make
sure
that
there
was
still
going
to
be
an
opportunity,
and
I
know
john
you've
been
in
email
communications
with
our
community
partner.
That
typically
runs
her
program
there
in
the
roller
rink
in
the
summer,
and
I
know
she
was
interested
in
doing
that,
so
is.
Is
that
still
gonna
be
a
possibility
or
does
this
affect
any
of
those
operations.
H
Yep
we'll
be
able
to
do
it
all,
so
I
should
say
no,
it
won't
affect
the
operations,
but
we
have.
We
still
have
some
grant
money
that
the
sharks
foundation
had
given
us
to
to
do
some
activation
there
that
we
need
to
spend.
So
we
thought
we
could.
We
could
absorb
this
cut
right
now,
because
we
were
looking
for
fake
little
pieces
of
vacancies
here
there
and
everywhere
to
try
to
to
make
our
targets
so
between
us
and
our
partners.
H
Our
vendors,
we'll
make
we'll
definitely
have
plenty
of
activation
there
because
we
weren't
operating
you
know
for
the
last
year,
plus
we've
got
that
savings
from
the
grant.
So
we'll
we'll
be
okay
in
this
next
year,.
B
All
right,
thank
you,
councilman
ryan.
You
want
to
give
us
another
run.
I
I
will
okay:
where
did
I
leave
off?
I'm
gonna
turn
to
oh,
so
so
maybe
we
can
have
a
conversation
jill
offline
about
san
jose
learns.
I
just
I've
been
connecting
quite
a
way
quite
a
bit
with
mount
pleasant,
as
I
think
there
is
a
great
opportunity
for
us
to
bring
tutoring
and
address
learning
loss
through
the
programs
that
we
have
in
the
rock
program
and
an
opportunity
to
you
know,
train
the
trainers
with
this
model
that
mount
pleasant
has.
I
So
I'm
going
to
move
into
the
the
mental
health
services
piece.
I
know
that
we
all
recognize
the
need
for
social
emotional
support
for
our
children
and
they
will
display
some
of
the
that
anxiety
and
and
trauma
that
they've
had
to
kind
of
endure
in
this
last
year,
either
because
of
poverty
or
just
being
isolated.
I
And
you
know
this
concern
is
going
to
translate
into
behavior
in
classrooms
and
then
from
there
it's
going
to
cycle
into
teachers
address
you
know
calling
children
out
and
research
shows.
Typically,
that
call
out
is
for
brown
and
black
children,
and
so
I
think
it
it.
We
need
to
really
nip
this
in
the
bud
and
add
our
piece.
I
know
that
county
is
mainly
supportive.
I
mean
mainly
responsible
for
this,
but
this
is.
This
is
a
pandemic
that
that
needs.
I
This
type
of
crisis
needs
all
of
us
to
do
our
part,
and
so
what
are
we
doing
to
incorporate
social
and
emotional
needs
for
children
in
our
pla,
in
our
prns
programs
in
this
upcoming
year,
and
maybe
the
same
for
for
library.
H
And
andrea
correct
me
on
this:
if
I'm
wrong,
but
we
are
doing
some
training
of
our
staff,
I
believe
on
on
how
to
recognize
these
things
and
how
to
be
responsive
to
them.
I
don't
know
if
you
want
to
comment
on
that.
Andrea.
D
Yes,
thank
you.
We're
partnering
with
the
county's
behavioral
health
services
department,
I'm
the
school
link
services
coordinator.
We
just
house
benjenberg,
laura
bouzou.
We
just
met
with
the
schooling
service
services
coordinator
for
the
county
and
we're
going
to
set
up
a
a
series
of
trainings
that
will
be
available,
not
just
a
pr
s,
but
we
we
will
be
opening
up
that
up
to
library
staff
to
really
do
everything
from
trauma-informed
practices.
D
D
We
also
have
really
improved
our
relationships
with
the
school
district,
so
if
they
are
referring
children
to
us
that
are
struggling
or
have
ieps
individual
educational
plans
that
we
have
a
strong
relationship
back
with
the
district
to
ensure
that
our
staff
are
aware
of
what
the
special
needs
are.
So
it's
we're
working
on
it
and
I
would
also
say
we
do
have
our
inclusion
specialist,
who
really
has
been
on
the
ground
responding
all
year
to
these
special
needs.
D
And
but
it
has
been
a
challenge
given
given
the
extent
of
it
so
we're
working
on
on
developing
a
stronger
plan
and
a
stronger
relationship
with
the
county
to
address
those.
I
I
really
like
that,
and
I
have
to
just
commend
you
and
your
staff
for
the
integration
of
referral
there,
that
referral
system
with
our
school
districts
has
just
been
wonderful.
It's
allowed
us
to
stand
up
our
learning
pods
and
really
help
the
most
neediest
of
those
families,
because
they
know
them
right.
They
know
who
needs
the
service,
and
so
that
that
that
piece
alone,
I
think
is-
is
such
a
huge
improvement
and
I
think,
we'll
see
a
lot
of
difference
in
in
upcoming
years.
I
I
Along
with
that
is,
you
know,
parenting
parenting
workshops
or
relationship
based
workshops
that
could
support
our
families.
One
of
the
things
that
I
see
as
an
opportunity
and
I've
spoken
about
this
before
is
when
you
have
us
parents
waiting
at
a
community
center,
or
we
visit
the
library
that
we
could
also
sign
up
for
a
workshop.
A
healthy
relationship
workshop
in
in
a
way
that
that
that
isn't
taking
too
much
time
out
of
a
very
busy
calendar
and
it's
kind
of
a
captive
audience.
I
I
I
would
love
to
see
more
opportunities
integrated
into
our
our
prns
department
in
our
library
department,
in
coordination
with
maybe
some
of
these
wellness
centers
that
are
going
to
be
sprouting
throughout
all
of
our
all
of
our
city,
so
that
we
can
support
our
families
and
one
of
the
concerns
that
I
have-
and
this
is
outside,
of
what
we're
responsible
for.
I
But
but
I
think
we
have
an
opportunity
to
maybe
support
these
families,
because
these
are
the
families
that
typically,
I
would
say,
are
middle
class
families
that
that
enroll
into
a
lot
of
our
programs,
because
they
can
afford
it
and
now
we've
kind
of
changed
that
profile,
because
we
have
a
lot
of
scholarship,
but
so
a
lot
of
east
side.
Maybe
san
jose,
unified,
franklin,
mckinley,
alum
rock
school
districts.
They
have
very
they're
very
well
resourced.
They
have
alamar
counseling
center,
they
have
catholic
charities
or
emq
and
they
offer
it.
I
A
myriad
of
things
like
home,
visitation,
therapeutic
services
case
management
for
children,
but
there's
a
gap
and
the
gap
is,
is
like
it
is:
it's
the
middle
middle
income,
it's
the
middle
class
families
that
may
not
be
doing
as
as
as
grey,
but
but
certainly
maybe
they're,
not
an
overcrowded
situations,
but
they're,
just
barely
making
that
mortgage
payment
or
that
rent
payment,
and
so
I'd
love
for
us
to
also
explore
some
of
this
gap,
because
I
think
it's
primarily
who's
coming
to
to
our
libraries
is
primarily
using
our
community
centers,
and
so
we
can
talk
offline,
but
I
I
really
would
love
to
see
a
version
of
of
triple
p.
I
I
think
you
probably
are
familiar
with
this
jill
and
john
from
the
family
resource
centers.
They
just
have
a
multi-level
level
approach
for
the
different
needs
of
our
families.
I
Okay,
enough
of
that,
I
am
going
to
move
into
maintenance
in
our
parks.
What
are
we
doing
to
plan
for
our
drought
that
we
appear
to
be
kind
of
entering
into?
Is
there
something
that
we're
doing
now?
John.
H
No
we're
not
doing
anything
different.
Actually
we
are.
We
are
trying
to
keep
things
watered.
We
have
gotten
as
you
as
you're
aware.
We've
got
no
guidance
or
orders
or
anything
saying
slow
down
your
watering.
Yet,
although
we're
starting
to
see
it
in
california,
I
think
I
just
saw
when
I
say
it
was
solano
county,
but
I
could
be
wrong
started
restricting
residential
water
use.
You
know
in
outdoor
landscaping
and
things
like
that.
H
If
you
look
at
the
budget,
you'll
actually
see
we're
getting
a
larger
budget
for
water,
but
that
mostly
reflects
the
price
of
water.
It
doesn't
it's
not
we're
not
really
adding
water
to
the
budget,
it's
just
more
expensive
right,
but
avi.
I
don't
know.
If
you
want
to
comment
deputy
director
aviotam
over
parks
on
on
anything
else,
we
might
be
doing.
G
Sure,
john,
thank
you
councilmember
moranis
for
the
question.
G
So,
as
joe
mentioned,
we
haven't
taken
any
actions
to
reduce
our
watering,
but
this
year,
in
light
of
the
the
one
and
a
quarter
million
dollar
reduction
to
our
water
budget
that
we
did
take
in
the
current
year
that
we're
in
we
have
been
monitoring
our
water
usage
very
very
closely,
and
our
team
has
been
pushing
forward
on
the
installation
of
smart,
smart
controllers
for
our
water
meters
and
we've
actually
installed
about
265
smart
controllers
and
have
about
27
more
that
we
saw
to
investigate
and
evaluate
for
that
conversion
and
that
tool
will
give
us
really
precise,
remote
control
of
all
of
our
irrigation
systems.
G
So
that
should
we
need
to
pull
back
if
there's
direction
from
from
the
state
or
otherwise
we
can
do
that
pretty
crisply,
and
in
the
months
ahead
we
have
a
plan
to
install
master
valve
and
flow
sensors
at
90
locations,
which
will
again
give
us
even
greater
control
so
that,
as
we
have
agent
infrastructure
in
our
parks,
if
there,
if
there
are
leaks
that
spring,
those
sensors
were
able
to
detect
it
and
shut
it
off.
Preventing.
I
Wow,
that
is
amazing,
awesome.
Thank
you.
So
much
for
that
response,
and
I'm
gonna
also
ask
public
works
in
terms
of
their
level
of
backlog
and
public
works,
construction
projects
it,
and
if
this
budget
solves
for
that
backlog
or
or
not,
I
know
that
it
takes
a
couple
of
years
for
parks,
capital
projects
to
move
forward
into
construction.
I
I've
seen
it
in
my
you
know
my
own
projects,
which,
when
it
does
get
done,
is
just
absolutely
beautiful,
but
is,
is
there
a
budget
allocation
to
maybe
streamline
this
and
address
some
of
the
issues
in
in
public
works
that
create
this
backlog?.
H
K
H
K
So
as
we're
waiting
for
that
matt
cano
director
of
public
works,
I
I
I
agree
with
what
john
said.
There
is
still
a
sizable
infrastructure
backlog.
We
had
a
report
to
the
transportation
environment
committee
earlier
this
year
and
while
we
are
recommending
some
infrastructure
backlog
projects
in
the
park's
capital
budget
this
year,
there
still
is
a
sizable
backlog
of
projects
that
we
are
not
funded
to
complete
in
the
park
system.
I
Yeah,
well
I'm
wondering
how
how
do
we
address
that
backlog?
I
don't
know
what
the
issue
would
be
at
the
center
of
this,
but
I
know
that
when
we
talked
about
like
abandoned
cars
and
things
of
that
sort,
what
we
did
is
we
had
a
contractor,
come
in
and
do
a
piece
of
the
process
so
that
we
can
relieve
some
of
that
backlog.
I
I
don't
know
if
there's
a
simple
fix
like
that,
but
if
there
was
a
fix
that
we
could
address
during
the
budget
years,
I
mean
this
budget
cycle
would
be
great
as
sometimes
and
to
review
some
of
these
projects
in
an
equitable
way,
because
there
are
some
communities.
I've
been
waiting
for
a
really
long
time.
C
And
if
I
could,
council,
member
and
just
john
and
matt,
I
I
think
what
I'm
hearing
from
the
council
members
a
little
different
question:
it's
not
so
much
about
the
infrastructure
backlog.
I
think
the
question
is
more
about
funded
projects
that
are
kind
of
in
the
queue
that
we're
trying
to
move
through.
If
you
can
correct
me,
council
member,
if
I'm
wrong,
but
I
think
that
yeah
so
john
and
matt,
maybe
we
can
kind
of
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
queued
up
funded
projects.
Yes,
yes,.
H
Yes,
I
see
okay
and
maybe
using
contractors,
and
we
have
had
some
of
those
discussions
by
the
way
about.
Is
there
a
way
to
speed
up,
especially
some
of
these
smaller
ones?
You
know
you
know
like
a
playground
and
things
like
that,
yeah
that
we
get
behind
on.
We
got
behind
on
a
lot
of
pr
projects
over
the
last
year
because
of
covid.
You
know
a
lot
of
the
staff
that
deliver
some
of
our
minor
capital
stuff.
H
You
know
they
were
in
and
out
with
various
things,
so
so
we're
definitely
behind.
I
believe
our
capital
group
has
about
150
active
projects
in
prns
right
now,
capital
projects.
So
it's
a
lot
to
manage
this
budget
does
not
do
anything
particularly
to
address
it.
It
does
keep
our
a
capital
improvement,
team
intact
and
funded
for
another
year.
H
H
We
had
someone
retire,
so
we
were
able
to
start
switching
around
some
positions
to
try
to
be
more
organized
about
it,
but
but
there's
no
big
silver
and
silver
to
answer
here
that
that
that
gets
us
to
speeding
up
dramatically.
K
I
would-
and
this
is
matt
kano
again
and
sorry
for
misunderstanding-
your
question.
Thank
you
dave
for
that
clarification.
You
know
we
are.
We
do
feel
moving
forward,
we're
staffed
pretty
well
for
projects
that
are
fully
funded
to
get
going
on
them
right
away.
There's
we
don't
have
a
huge
for
projects
that
again
are
fully
funded
for
design
and
construction.
K
We
don't
have
a
big
queue
of
projects
waiting
to
start
right
now,
so
we'll
take
a
look
and
we'll
dive
into
kind
of
maybe
the
district,
a
specific
projects
with
prness
to
see,
if
there's
anything
that
I'm
that
we're
missing
here,
that
we
can
go
a
little
quicker
on.
I
Thank
you
so
much
matt,
I
mean,
I
think
it
would
be,
and
I
appreciate
that,
but
I
you
know,
I
think
it's
a
a
systemic
issue,
maybe
that
we
need
to
take
a
look
at
and,
like
you
said
john,
they
could
be
that
that
retired,
employee
police
or
having
a
contractor
come
out.
Maybe
do
it
even
less
for
less
than
what
we
would.
I
I
I
just
would
love
for
us
to
to
to
make
sure
that
during
this
budget
we
we
take
a
look
at
what
we
need
to
do
and
have
that
in
place
to
streamline
this.
So
I
appreciate
your
your
responses
and
if,
if
the
mayor
will
allow
me-
and
my
colleagues
will
allow
me-
I
just
have
one
more
question,
but
I
I
will
wait.
I
Yeah,
so
the
the
other
piece
is
the
status
of
the
workload
right
now
in
the
office
of
equality
assurance,
and
I
know
that
that
matt,
you,
you
were
able
to
secure
a
online
system
to
be
more
expeditious
about
our
some
of
the
the
pay
paid
paychecks
that
are
coming
in
from
our
our
contractors.
So
how
is
that
system
does
it
need?
Any
additional
funding
is?
Is
that
it?
How
are
we
doing?
K
Thank
you
councilman
for
the
question.
Matt
kano
again
public
works
director
so
that
that
pilot
kind
of
the
database
that
we
set
up
with
the
vendor.
It
was
a
good
lesson
for
us
to
learn
this
this
past
year.
We
are
taking
a
hard
look
at
that
system
right
now.
It
has
taught
us
a
lot
of
good
things
about
not
having
to
rely
on
paper
as
much
as
we
used
in
the
past
and
big
stacks
of
paper.
K
In
the
offices
we
are
looking
at
possibly
evolving
from
that
system
into
a
more
automated
system
using
traditional
means
like
outlook
and
file
storage
with
our
contractors.
So
we're
definitely
not
going
back
to
paper,
but
we
are
evaluating
whether
we
kind
of
that
system
stays
or
we.
We
continue
more
with
other
ways
of
file
storage
in
the
future.
We
may
want
to
look
at
one
of
the
more
traditional
systems
that
are
out
there,
but
those
are
pretty
expensive.
K
We
feel
good
right
now
that
the
electronic
paperwork
storage
systems
that
we're
using
are
helping
our
staff
and
we
are
in
this
budget
process
we're
able
to
identify
revenue
from
our
minimum
wage
enforcement
from
our
partner
agencies,
and
we
are
proposing
a
senior
analyst
be
added
to
the
team
using
that
revenue
in
this
budget
process.
K
That
will
help
us
get
our
head
above
water
a
little
bit
and
the
workload
of
the
equality
assurance
staff.
So
we
are
looking
forward
to
adding
that
level
of
staff
a
little
bit
of
staffing
to
this
team.
I
Oh,
that
is
really
good
to
hear.
I
know
it's
it's
kind
of
hitting
me
behind
the
scenes
here,
but
it's
absolutely
essential,
so
I
I
really
appreciate
that,
and
I
think
I
think
that's
it
for
me.
Thank
you
so
much.
Thank
you,
everyone
for
all
of
the
responses.
I
really
appreciated
and
all
the
really
great
work.
B
Hey
john
well,
I
gotcha.
I
know
this
isn't
the
most
obvious
budget
question,
but
it
seems
to
have
come
up
a
bit
more
recently
and
and
most
recently
this
weekend
when
I
was
at
plateau
arroyo
park
and
with
some
community
members,
and
there
had
been
a
because
we've
had
tragically
you
know.
Obviously,
we've
lost
people
in
traffic
accidents,
in
particular,
skateboarders
commemorate
the
loss
of
their
friends
in
various
ways.
B
As
you
see
now
at
plato
arroyo,
where
they've
taken
over
one
of
the
the
trees
to
to
honor
a
fallen
friend,
there
were
questions
about
hey,
you
know,
could
could
we
maybe
find
ways
that
are
more
constructive
for
the
community
to
be
able
to
express
the
loss
and
there
was
desire
to
have
a
mural,
for
example,
painted
over
the
wall,
the
bathroom?
If
community
members
want
to
engage
in
those
kinds
of
efforts,
how
do
they
best
with
your
office
to
be
able
to
say
hey?
H
Yeah,
we
would
work
together
with
them
in
in
oca,
because
they,
you
know
they
approve
the
art
or
or
procure
the
artist
those
kind
of
things,
but
we're
very
open
to
that,
particularly
for
something
like
a
bathroom
in
a
park
like
plateau
road
which
is
going
to
see
it's
its
fair
share
of
graffiti.
H
There
should
be
a
mural
up.
We
we
did
commission
one
there,
I'm
not
sure.
If
there
needs
to
be
an
another,
or
did
you
see
another
blank
wall,
there
should
be
one
over
on
the
bathrooms.
B
I
may
have
missed
it,
it
was
on
the
so
it
may
well
be
there.
I
just
didn't
see
it
so
all
right,
but
yeah
we're.
H
Happy
to
work
we've
actually
been
doing
a
few
different
improvements
there.
I
don't
know
if
you're
able
to
see
some
of
those,
but
we've
been
we're
trying
to
sort
of
reestablish
the
historical
you
know
there
was
emergency
siren
and
just
sort
of
a
plaque
and
talk
about
what
it
was
from
back
in
the
day
and
some
of
the
history
that's
there
in
that
park.
So
we
are
we're
doing
little
little
bits
and
pieces,
but
we'd
be
happy
to
to
look
at
murals
as
well.
Okay,.
A
Hey
thanks
mayor
hi,
john,
my
understanding
from
a
conversation
a
while
back
is
that
there
might
be
less
funding
in
this
upcoming.
G
Budget
cycle
for
the
integrated
pest
management,
which
is
a
certainly
a
huge
issue
in
district
10
parks,
as
I'm
sure,
is
the
case.
G
H
Yeah
so
the
way
it
is
in
the
budget,
currently
it
it
will
end
on
june
30th.
It
was
funded
through
the
end
of
this
fiscal
year.
Only
I
said
though,
but
we
have.
I
will
just
let
you
know
we
have
received
two
bd
requests
to
price
it
out
and
or
consolidate.
If
you
remember,
we
had
a
integrated
pest
management
and
a
turf
team,
so
the
integrated
pest
team
goes
in,
gets
rid
of
the
pests
and
then
we
repair
the
turf
so
that
it's
good
and
playable.
H
G
May,
if
I
could
jump
back
in
on
your
first
question,
you
asked
regarding
american
rescue
plan
funding
for
parks
and
andrea
kind
of
reminded
me
that
you
know
on
you
know:
may
17th
we'll
talk
about
a
little
bit
more
of
it,
but
there
will
certainly
be
some
some
programs
that
pr
s
will
be
responsible
for
probably
transition
to
recovery,
food
being
a
good
example,
so
the
ultimate
adopted
budget
will
probably
have
more
there.
Although
those
probably
more
specific
to
you,
know
the
community
and
economic
recovery
items
as
opposed
to
more
yeah.
H
Yeah
and
if
I
could
add
a
bigger
one,
that's
more
directly
related
to
park.
Maintenance
right
is
the
resiliency
core
stuff.
So
there's
quite
a
bit
of
that
in
there
we've
been
avi's,
been
leading
a
group
along
with
jeff
ruster,
sorting
it
out
and
who's
going
to
sort
of
be
the
employer
of
record,
and
how
are
we
going
to
disperse
people,
but
this
will
definitely
help
in
some
of
our
parks.
Certainly,
okay,.
B
Thank
you
yeah
that
I
completely
understand
all
that.
I
I
appreciate
all
that
I
guess
the
what
I
was
referring
to
was
in
the
budget
summary,
so
it
related
more
to
core
functions,
and
I
saw
a
big
number
of
11.8
million
pop
out
and
that
had
me
a
little
concerned
because,
as
we
all
know,
that
money
is
is
fleeting.
B
So
I
just
wanted
to
understand
what
else
might
we
be
funding
with
american
recovery
act
or
planned
money
that
we
need
to
think
about
for
future
years,
and
it
sounds
like
it's
primarily
on
beautify
and
viva
parks
in
terms
of
ongoing
yeah.
H
Yeah
effectively,
we've
got
kind
of
like
three
years
to
figure
it
out
like
how
we're
going
to
fund
this
one
of
the
things
marion
we've
talked
about
this
with
the
council
and
we've
gotten.
Some
direction
from
council
to
pursue,
of
course,
is
a
ballot
measure
in
2022
right.
That
would
be
an
operating
fund.
That's
what
we'd
be
looking
for
and
in
fact,
before
the
pandemic,
where
we
were
still
doing
polling
thinking
about
the
last
november
ballot.
H
We
were
asking
people
about
cleanliness
and
trash
service,
and
they
were
responding
at
rates
above
two-thirds
to
those
in
a
positive
way,
so
that
that
may
be
a
mechanism
by
which
we
get
there,
I'm
not
sure
yet.
Yeah.
Okay,
thanks
john.
B
E
Yeah
my
hand
was
up.
I
don't
know
why
it
clicked
off,
but
thank
you
very
much.
You
know
to
continue
my
theme
for
the
day,
thanks
for
your
patience
for
my
theme
of
the
day,
but
to
try
to
offer
quickly,
I
don't
mean
to
be
startling,
with
my
words
about
preparing
for
a
natural
disaster.
E
I'm
I
mean
my
words
to
be
as
part
of
a
how
we
can
develop
an
open
conversation.
Your
cells
have
been
doing
actually
a
really
good
job
as
city
government,
to
share
that
with
the
public.
I
hope
we
can
learn
to
return
that
as
the
public
in
favor.
You
know
in
kind
and
we
learn
to
work
on
it
together
and
it
becomes
a
more
open,
easier
subject
to
talk
about.
Thank
you
for
your
attempts
to
to
to
do
that.
For
this
item.
E
I
guess
first
off
I
wanted
to
consider
you
know
there
is
technology
issues
and
iot
issues
that
you
were
talking
about
and
a
reminder
of
good
open
public
policy
practices.
There
will
be
affordable
housing
ideas
that
that
that
you
may
need
to
address
as
neighborhood
services,
and
I
just
wanted
to
remind
of
the
good
work
of
mixed
income
ideas.
I've
tried
to
speak
about.
E
I
think
how
mixed
income
can
really
help
the
the
present
adu
situation
or
zoning
situation
with
single
family
homes.
E
E
E
B
All
right,
returning
now
to
council,
okay,
dave
we're.
C
B
Okay,
we'll
let
everybody
turn
the
pages
of
their
binders,
so
we
got
all
the
supported
support
services
as
well
as
all
of
the
appointee
offices.
That's
ipa
city
attorney,
city
manager,
auditor.
B
E
Hi,
where
beekman
to
round
out
the
day
of
I
don't
know
my
own
public
comment
about
you
know.
The
future
of
natural
disasters
in
the
bay
area
is
not
everything
to
consider,
but
it
is
a.
It
is
a
portion
that
I
hope
thank
you
for
allowing
me
the
patients
to
speak
to
at
this
time.
E
I
think
you,
the
mayor
and
david
sykes,
they
talked
about
in
the
beginning
of
this
meeting.
You
know
what
exactly
are
we
doing
for
the
future
of
the
city
at
this
time?
What
are
we
expecting
of
ourselves-
and
I
feel
if,
if
natural
disaster
preparedness
is,
is
important
for
the
next
few
years?
I
that's
going
to
somewhat
limit
ourselves.
E
I
mean
it
not
only
limits,
you
know
good
creative
potential,
it
builds
you
know,
activist
potential
and
the
idea
is
real
good
ideas
of
defund
and
equity,
and
but
yet,
if
we,
if
we're
considering
openly
natural
disaster
preparedness
ideas,
then
we
start
to
maybe
talk
more
openly
about
what
can
be
equity
and
reimagined
within
the
terms
of
upcoming
natural
disasters
and
that's
the
sort
of
conversation
I
want
to
be
hoping.
We
learn
to
develop
that.
I
think
you
guys
really
are
and
I'm
adding
to
that
right
now.
E
I
hope
we
can
all
continue
to
add
to
that
right
now
and
just
make
it
relaxed
and
casual
and
and
regular
in
every
day,
and
if
we
do
that,
then
we
we're
developing
something
amazing
we're
preparing
for
for
possible
harm
in
the
next
few
years,
and
and
that
way
we
protect
ourselves
and
we're
taking
care
of
each
other
openly,
and
that's
that's
an
important
skill
that
we
may
be
learning
at
this
time.
E
I
hope
we
learn
to
develop
that
and
and
then
we
can
talk
about
equity,
better
and
reimagine,
better,
that's
my
hope,
so
yeah
boy
I
can
go
on
and
on
about
this
yeah
that
we
we
think
in
those
good
terms
now
and
we
come
out
of
the
natural
disaster
time
in
better
shape.
Thanks.
E
B
You
all
right
back
to
the
council,
any
questions
I'll
throw
out
a
couple
because
well
folks
are
thinking.
I
I
had
a
couple
questions
for
rob
to
put
you
on
the
spot
here
on
I.t
one
was,
I
believe
it
was
last
year.
Gosh.
A
Thank
you
mayor.
Yes,
you
and
council
put
some
resources
behind
that.
We
got
up
to
nine
positions
and
the
impact
of
that
has
actually
been
positive
enough.
That,
for
example,
you'll
see
in
the
budget
that
the
housing
department
for
their
housing
technologies
said.
Not
only
do
we
like
this
a
lot,
we
want
to
pay
for
part
of
the
position,
so
we
can
get
that
dedication
of
time,
so
we've
now
take
on
about
60
projects
in
the
year
and
our
project.
Success
rate
was
in
the
mid
80s.
B
That's
tremendous
because
I
remember
it
was
awfully
low
when
we
started
yes
under
five
percent
so
yeah,
so
we
went
from
under
five
to
over
80.
That's
fantastic,
so
great
to
see
that's
gone
so
well.
Thank
you
for
your
work
and
the
work
of
your
team.
Second
question
related
to
a
discussion
we
had
at
the
smart
city
committee.
B
I
think
it
was
last
week
and
you
described-
and
I
may
have
it
wrong
so
you'll
have
to
correct
me
on
this,
but
essentially
our
tech
debt
on
the
kinds
of
basic
I.t
systems
that
we
need
for
lots
of
support
services
ranging
from
budget
to
to
hr,
and
it
was
somewhere
on
the
order.
I
think
you
used
the
term
30-ish
million
yeah.
A
Absolutely
mayor
so
in
our
deferred
maintenance
infrastructure
backlog,
we've
identified
a
number
of
systems
that,
while
we've
updated
them,
there's
still
20
going
on
30
year
old
technology
and
that
the
departments
have
told
us
holds
them
back.
A
So
in
terms
of
the
currency
of
the
financial
information,
how
we
can
hire
people
the
budget
system
and
how
much
labor
that
takes
to
produce
the
budget
I'll
just
give
jim
and
claudia
and
bryce
and
bonnie
world
of
credit,
because
it's
a
herculean
effort
and
they
actually
have
to
do
a
lot
of
manual
work
to
close
some
of
those
technology
gaps.
So
we've
identified
in
that
third
main
infrastructure
backlog,
some
future
investments.
A
We
have
to
make
to
modernize
our
systems,
not
just
update
the
old,
but
to
actually
replace
with
something
that's
going
to
support
the
city
and
how
it
wants
to
do
things
that
are
more
transformative,
not
just
traditional
technology.
B
All
that
requires
having
all
that
I.t
infrastructure
in
the
in
the
back
end
to
support.
That
is
that
right,
it.
A
Is
mayor
and
part
of
that
also
that
we
have
to
communicate
well,
is
there
is
some
shoring
up
of
the
organization
that
we
have
to
do
before
we
head
into
these
types
of
replacement
projects,
because
you
have
to
have
the
depth?
You
have
to
have
people
with
a
lot
of
expertise,
and
you
know
the
business
processes
really
well
on
the
technology
really
well.
A
So
there
is
can
confirm,
there's
some
assessment
money
in
the
budget
for
doing
an
erp
assessment
on
how
we
would
approach
that
problem
and
then
what
the
dollar
amounts
are
possibly
through
an
rfi.
So
we
can
come
to
council
and
the
city
manager's
office
in
the
future.
To
say
what
that
kind
of
investment
would
look
like
with
hard
numbers.
B
Okay,
you
mentioned
lewis
and
julie
if
either
one
of
you
want
to
jump
in
feel
free.
If
not
I'm
happy
to
take
the
answer
and
keep
going.
B
B
We
could
be
spending
that
could
produce
ongoing
benefit
in
terms
of
improving
productivity,
nothing
else
enabling
our
employees
to
get
more
sleep
and
and
to
be
able
to
work
more
effectively
and
better
serve
our
residents,
and
so
I
saw
I
believe,
a
two
million
dollar
set
aside
for
essentially
was
capital
replacement
and
sort
of
that
reserve,
which
I
think
that
was
came
from
the
message
and
as
I
look
at
the
it
budget
and
just
the
department
there's,
a
slight
increase
looks
like
about
a
million
and
a
half,
but
I
didn't
see
anything
that
reflected
any
big
share
of
that
kind
of
investment.
G
Yeah
mayor
the
the
reserve
is
in
there's
a
section
called
the
general
fund
transfers
and
reserve
sections
where
the
the
two
million
dollars
for
the
itc
fund
sits.
Okay,
so
the
it
the
the
department
of
budgets,
don't
include
the
reserve
amounts,
so
it
excludes,
like
reserves,
transfers
and
fund
balance.
B
B
A
And
they
were
based
on
the
committee's
feedback.
Last
week
I
have
a
to
do
to
connect
with
jim.
I
I
left
him
alone
for
this
week
because
of
the
budget
presentation,
but
I
do
have
what
you
do
other
than
to
try
to
sync
up
with
them
and
see.
If
we
can
answer
the
questions
that
you
and
councilman
asked
last
week.
B
Okay,
all
right!
Well,
I
I
appreciate
it.
I
know
that
this
is
stuff
is
complex,
and
I
know
we
have
to
often
go
get
consultants
just
to
figure
out
what
we
exactly
even
need
to
do,
because
the
technology
is
moving
so
fast.
I
just
can't
help
but
wonder
if
this
is
a
moment
in
time
when
we
do
have
one
time
money
and
we're
probably
never
going
to
be
flush
and
ongoing
money.
B
G
I
don't
know
the
answer
to
that,
yet
I
mean
losers,
dug
into
this
a
little
bit
too
bring
her
into
fold
yeah.
I
would
defer
to
lose
she's
been
our
lead
in
reviewing
the
at
least
the
interim
guidance
today.
G
Of
course,
good
afternoon
mayor
council
members
yeah
actually
looking
looking
at
it
at
first
glance,
we
this
this
is
infrastructure,
so
this
this
is
an
eligible
cost
under
arp.
We
might
also
want
to
wait
a
little
bit
just
a
little.
J
Yeah.
Thank
you
mayor,
quick
question
here
in
regards
to
the
office
of
racial
equity
staffing.
It
states
that
the
action
for
this
budget
will
add
four
positions.
How
many
total
staff
will
that
make
in
this
in
the
office
of
racial
equity.
C
Yeah
thanks
councilmember,
so
in
essence,
what
we're
doing
is
last
year
that
the
team
was
funded
with
one
time,
so
this
just
puts
the
team
and
in
the
ongoing
status.
So
I
do
think
the
overall
team
number
is
four
and
I
don't
think
it's
zumazon
or
lee.
Could
you
confirm
that.
G
So
it's
yes,
it
is
for
within
the
office
of
racial
equity,
but
also
encompassing
that
team
is
also
the
office
of
immigrant
affairs,
which
has
an
additional
three
position.
So
it's
a
total
of
seven
within
the
office.
J
Okay,
yeah,
that's
what
I
was
curious
about
that
I
couldn't
in
any
of
the
language
I
was
reading.
It
didn't
specify
that
this
action
was
making
those
four
positions
permanent
it
you
know
with
stating
it
that
it
adds.
So
I
was
curious
if
that
meant
it
added
to
the
positions.
That's
that's
clear
now
that
it
does,
and
it
just
makes
those
four
ongoing,
which
I
do
appreciate
I
did
want
to
hear,
though
I
don't
know,
is
zuma
on.
C
J
My
interest
is
to
know
sort
of
what
this
staff
being,
if
it's,
if
it's
equivalent
to
what
it
was
this
this
current
year
and
then
moving
into
the
year
ahead,
considering
you
will
be
coming
out
with
an
mba
on
the
work
plan.
I'm
just
curious.
That
right
is,
is
this
staffing
sufficient?
Is
there
you
know?
Is
there
a
more
urgent
need,
for
you
know
additional
staff?
J
I
think
there's
a
lot
that
we
have
thrown
at
this
office
right
right
out
the
gate
and-
and
I
and
quite
frankly
I
think
a
lot
of
it
is
very,
very
important
work-
and
I
know
from
some
of
my
colleagues
as
well
in
the
discussions
we've
had
over
the
last
couple
months
and
things
that
we
want
to
continue
to
to
maybe
throw
at
this
office.
J
I'm
I'm
interested
in
hearing
what
that
staffing
model
looks
like
and
is
it
going
to
be
sufficient
and
we
may
be
able
to
have
the
conversation
once
the
work
plan
comes
out,
but
unfortunately
right
this
is.
This
is
the
time
to
dive
a
little
deeper.
So
that's
what
my
question
was
going
to
be
for
for
zuma,
specifically
but
happy
to
hear
your
answer.
Dave.
C
Yeah,
so
I
you
know,
I
certainly
we
we
do
have
an
ambitious
work
plan.
I
do
appreciate
the
nba's
not
out
yet,
and
you
know
I
I
do
think
you
know.
Obviously,
when
it
comes
to
the
general
fund,
we
were
working
within
a
number
of
constraints,
including
reduction
targets
for
every
single
department
and
every
single
office.
So
you
know
what
we've
done
here
in
terms
of
making
this
ongoing
was.
C
It
was
quite
a
quite
a
feat
to
pull
it
off,
to
be
honest,
but
to
really
get
to
the
root
of
your
question,
I
I
do
think
that
the
four
positions
will
position
us
properly
to
be
able
to
advance
the
work
plan.
Now.
J
Plan
and
I'll
give
an
example,
so
one
thought
that
I'm
having
and
just
all
I'm
going
off
of
is
the
you
know
the
details
I
can
read
in
the
current
document,
since
we
don't
have
an
mba
out
yet
talking
about
integrating
an
equity
framework
into
decision
making
and
operation
opera
operationalizing
the
practice
right
into
daily
work.
I
think-
and
I
didn't
see
the
other
there's.
J
You
know
two
three
four
and
five
on
that
list
there
and
none
of
them
specifically
mentioned
anything
about
the
entirety
of
the
budget
process,
which
I
know
that
the
you
know
that
some
work
that
the
office
of
racial
equity
was
was
engaged
in
already
this
year
and
that's
something
for
me.
That's
you
know
definitely
important.
I
don't
know
if
I
would
assume
that
that's
to
be
included
in
the
you
know,
integrating
into
the
framework
of
decision
making
it's
pretty
broad
term.
J
So
I
think
it
could,
but
that's
something
specifically
that
I
think
I'd
like
to
see
before
next
year,
and
so
that
was
an
interest.
The
other
interest
would
be.
I
think
something
that
the
american
rescue
fund
dollars
should
be
able
to
be
used
for,
and
that
would
be
in
the
recovery
task
force
and
the
work
that
may
come
out
of
that,
as
we
begin
to
identify
some
specific
needs
that
are
drawn
from
our
community
and
then
specifically
from
communities.
J
We
may
want
to
lean
on
the
support
from
this
office
of
racial
equity,
and
I
you
know,
I
believe
that
would
be
above
and
beyond
some
of
what
we're
looking
at
in
their
their
work
plan
for
the
next
year,
and
I
do
believe
that
you
know
we
could
we
could
maybe
chip
off
some
one-time
dollars,
even
if
it
was
just
for
the
next
year
or
two
years,
and
that
could
come
from
the
american
rescue
fund
and-
and
so
that
may
be,
you
know
in
addition
to,
and
that
could
help.
J
I
see
that
there's
a
little
one-time
ask,
but
it's
for
non-personnel
services
of
a
hundred
thousand.
So
that
would
be
the
other
thing,
and
I'm
happy
to
hear
from
jim
on
that
as
well.
If
he
thinks
that
that
you
know
if
there
is
flexibility
there
again,
and
I
think
specifically
relates
to
recovery.
C
If
I
could
council
members
so
that
that
second
part
is
definitely
you
know,
I
want
you
to
feel
like
this.
Is
the
last
opportunity
you
know
monday?
Well,
we
will
be
talking
about
those
monies
and
how
we
spend
those
moneys
and
how
equity
is
involved
in,
and
so
that
discussion
is
still
ahead
of
us
and
it
will
definitely
have
the
the
mb,
the
based
office,
racial
equity
mba
by
then,
but
that
discussion
on
monday
is
exactly
what
we
plan
on
having
with
you
all.
J
Okay,
I
appreciate
it.
Obviously
you
know
again.
I
think
jim
made
this
very
clear
in
the
conversation
early
yesterday
that
you
know
there
is
an
expectation
that
there
will
be
potentially
significantly
more
ads
coming
out
of
that
american
rescue
fund,
and
so
this
is
obviously
something
I
I
see,
there's
a
need.
J
It's
just
not
there
right
now,
so
it's
not
included,
and
that
would
be
something
that
I
personally
would
like
to
see
included
and
that
could
then
boost
some
of
the
the
resources
and,
more
importantly,
not
take
away
focus
from
the
work
that
we're.
You
know
that
we're
going
to
be
expecting
them
to
do
ongoing
and
so
that'll
be
something
we
can
discuss
on
monday
and
that's
it
for
me.
Thanks
yeah.
C
Thank
you
councilmember.
I
just
just
for
everyone
too.
I
I
don't.
I
don't
want
to
leave
the
impression
that
we're
going
to
have
all
the
answers
on
monday.
You
know
that's,
so
it's
truly
kind
of
engaging
you
all.
You
obviously
get
our
thinking,
but
you
know
we're
certainly
kind
of
coming
to
the
realization
that
there's
still
a
lot
of
unknowns
for
us
on
the
federal
money
and
how
we
line
things
up
and
how
we
take
advantage
of
different
pieces.
Of
that
you
know
I
don't.
C
J
In
that
context,
mayor,
if
you
don't
mind,
if
I
just
add
one
more
piece,
I
you
know
if,
if
that
is
the
case-
and
we
think
that
maybe
you
know
a
week
or
two
after
you
know
monday,
following
monday,
we
we
may
be
in
a
better
position
to
specifically
discuss
the
american
rescue
fund
dollars.
I'm
curious,
if
that's
something
that
we
want
to
insert
into
these
budget
deliberations
versus
just
you
know,
have
the
next
more
formal
conversations
at
the
council
when
we're
actually
adopting
the
budget.
This
is
a
significant
amount
of
money.
J
It's
specifically
meant
right
to
to
help
aid
through
the
recovery.
Efforts
of
you
know
the
the
most
significant
incident
to
happen
to
us
in
our
lifetimes,
and
so
I
think
right.
If
we
don't
have
maybe
enough
to
fully
deliberate
on
monday,
I
would
like
an
opportunity
to
be
able
to
maybe
do
so
again
as
a
council
over
the
next
couple
weeks.
If
we
think
that
that
that
would,
if
we're
going
to
have
more
information
by
then
so
I'm
curious
on
your
feedback
on
that
dave
and
yourself,
mayor.
C
Yeah
and
I
think
I'll
certainly,
I
think
what
we're
kind
of
coming
to
realization
is
that
I
think
yeah,
it's
the
next
few
weeks
and
it
may
even
be
after
the
budget
is
adopted
that
we
may
need
to
kind
of
think
through
things.
I
I
think
lee
is
hearing
that
some
other
agencies
are
actually
putting
off
this
discussion
for
a
little
bit.
G
C
Because
there's
so
many
different
funding
streams
and
and
what
we
want
to
make
sure
is
that
we're
addressing
the
needs
of
our
community
and
we're
taking
advantage
of
all
the
moving
pieces,
and
we,
if
there's
some,
I
think
thinking
that
if
we
move
a
little
too
quickly
here,
we
may
be
doing
a
mis
disservice
to
our
own
residents.
So
from
my
standpoint
in
the
teams,
I
think
we
should
be
prepared,
for
maybe
you
know
that
allowing
that
discussion
to
kind
of
mature
over
some
time
but
sam.
B
Yeah,
I
know
I
agree
and
I've
had
this
conversation
with
with
dave
and
the
team
recently
recognizing
the
county's
actually
putting
off
their
decisions
around
allocation
of
that
funding
until
the
fall.
B
It
really
we're
going
to
be
learning
a
lot
and
making
the
decisions
with
all
the
information
rather
than
part
of
it,
I
think,
will
be
very
much
to
our
advantage,
particularly
since
there's
still
federal
legislation
in
the
pipeline
and
and
there's
a
state
budget
out
there,
that's
going
to
be
allocating
an
awful
lot
of
money,
for
example,
to
homelessness
being
able
to
respond
well
and
fill
the
gaps
rather
than
getting
out
there
and
starting
to
spend
money
where
other
money
already
might
have
existed.
B
J
Okay,
thank
you
now
I
I
do
appreciate
that
and
I
and
I
agree
that
it
would
make
most
sense
to
to
try
and
fill
the
gaps,
especially
with
some
of
these
unknowns.
I
think
there
may
be,
as
we've
already
discussed
in
you,
know,
the
budget
what's
being
presented
here.
There
may
be
some
things
that
are
more
clear-cut
and
we
decide
here
is
a
good
use
now,
but
I
think
for
those
things
that
are
a
gray
area,
I'm
also
not
interested.
J
In
rushing
that
conversation,
you
know
I
don't
want
to
wait
too
long,
but
at
the
same
time
I
think,
if
really
we're
thinking
a
few
months
from
now,
we'll
have
a
better
indication
at
a
federal
level
and
at
a
state
level
on
where
those
gaps
are
then
can
we
set
up
a
process
to
be
able
to
act
quickly
right
with
with
what
we
we
have
resourced
here
locally?
I
would
agree
with
that.
J
So
I'm
happy
to
hear
that
mayor
you've
been
having
a
conversation
with
the
city
manager
and
staff
and
that
actually
the
thought
process
might
be.
We
we
move
a
little
bit
more
strategically.
Similarly,
to
the
way
that
the
county
has
looked
at
this,
and
maybe
we
hold
off
on
some
of
that.
That
decision
making
thanks.
B
Yeah
fair
point
and
emphasis
is
probably
on
the
word
sum,
because
some
money
we
will
probably
need
to
spend,
but,
but
certainly
this
we
may
not
so
okay.
Other
questions.
B
All
right
we'll
go
to
oh
councilmember
arenas.
I
Yeah
I
just
snuck
in
there,
so
I
wanted
to
ask
a
bit
about
what
we
learned
last
year
through
the
mba
around
race
and
equity
dave,
which
outlined
some
of
the
areas
that
we
know
that
we
need
to
work
on.
And
how
are
we
addressing
that
under
this
strategic
support
because
they
were
very
there,
were
you
know
there
were
infrastructure
issues
in
terms
of
our
the
way
we
collect
data?
I
We
don't
have
a
integrative
data
collection
system
so
that
we
can
actually
make
decisions
based
on
race
and
then
I
think
training
was
the
other
piece
and
gosh
at
the
top
of
my
head.
I
can't
remember
what
that
last
one,
but
I
know
there
was
three
areas
of
concern.
So
how
are
we?
How
are
we
working
on
that?
Is
there
a
line
item
in
the
budget
that
is
going
to
move
that,
along
into
maybe
and
the
next
steps.
F
That's
unless
I
think
I
could
answer
your
question,
so
the
mba
that
you're
going
to
see
shortly,
which
relates
to
the
office
of
racial
equity.
The
operational
work
plan
basically
provides
the
framework
that
you're
all
familiar
with
through
the
last
buddies
that
study
sessions
around
the
first
important
step
is
normalizing,
then
organizing
and
then
operationalizing,
and
so
in
that
work
plan.
F
And
what
we
learned
through
the
last
mba
was
that
we
need
a
lot
more
training.
And
so
we
also
learned
that
when
we
need
a
lot
more
practice,
so
there's
one
thing
to
have
go
through
the
trainings,
but
it's
also
being
able
to
practice
this
and
exercise
that
that
equity
lens
and
that
equity
muscle,
so
that
we're
asking
the
right
questions
and
then
another
series
of
things.
F
So
the
work
plan,
I
think,
will
be
able
to
answer
some
of
your
questions
regarding
the
the
next
steps
for
us,
which
will
be
around
training
standing
up
the
office.
So
the
good
news
is
that
I
have
replaced
the
assistant
to
the
city
manager,
but
basically
the
immigrant
affairs
manager,
which
just
started
last
week.
The
new
racial
equity
manager
will
be
starting
a
couple
of
weeks.
F
I've
already
hired
the
staff
specialist,
so
that's
part
of
the
infrastructure
is
standing
up
the
office
and
then
the
other
piece
of
the
infrastructure
is
making
sure
that
as
we
as
we
are
strategic
support
partners
to
all
the
departments-
and
you
know
you
know-
although
ideally
the
larger
departments
and
many
of
them
already
have
racial
equity
teams.
So
that's
part
of
the
infrastructure
and
that's
part
of
organizing
the
operationalizing
is
the
piece
that
we
have.
F
That
will
also
be
included
in
the
work
plan
that
you're
going
to
see,
or
that
is
included,
and
so
what
we
learned
in
the
last
mba
just
to
kind
of
close
up
and
loop.
It
back
to
your
questions
was
that
there's
a
lot
more
training
that
needs
to
happen
in
an
understanding
of
these
concepts
and
then
that
you
know
the
one-off
trainings
aren't
going
to
be
enough.
F
C
C
I
could
add
just
a
little
bit
council
member,
you
know,
I
think,
just
kind
of
just
talking
philosophically
for
a
second,
so
you
know
it
it's
kind
of
two
two
sides
to
a
coin
here.
I
there's
no
doubt
that
that
that
covet
kicked
our
butt
and
we're.
You
know
we're
we're
kind
of
not
necessarily
where
we
wanted
to
be
on
some
fronts
here.
C
On
the
other
hand,
we
are
night
and
day
away
from
where
we
were
you
know,
just
when
we
have
the
conversations
with
senior
staff
and
we
talk
with
the
organization
we
have
come
so
far
on
the
equity
front,
in
terms
of
our
capacity
to
talk
about
and
and
really
thoughtfully
put,
you
know
equity
into
our
our
approach.
So
I
don't
know
it's
those
two
things
sound
a
little
contradictory
but
they're
both
true
so.
C
There's
there's
progress
that
we
wanted
to
make
that
we,
you
know
we're
a
little
behind
on,
but
on
the
other
hand,
I'm
super
proud
of
kind
of
how
far
we've
come
and
what
we've
been
able
to
accomplish
so
yeah.
C
Makes
sense,
even
though
it
is
a
little
contradictory.
I
No,
I
I
get
it
I
I
mean,
I
think,
as
a
system
we
are
still
behind
in
terms
of
training
in
terms
of
data
collection
systems
and
operationalizing
these
concepts
as
soon
as
I
was
stating,
but
I
I
understand
what
you're
saying,
because
I
because
it's
it's,
what
has
gotten
us
here-
is
this
social
discussion
and
and
unfortunately,
some
of
these
tragedies
that
have
happened
nationwide
that
allowed
us
to
have
this
kind
of
conversation.
I
That
has-
and
I
think
it's
self
growth
in
in
a
lot
of
our
directors
and
that
that
genuine
want
and
need
to
to
follow
this
this
conversation
and
be
in
a
more
comfortable
place,
and
so
I
think
that
has
allowed
us
to
to
move
forward,
and
I
you
know
earlier,
I
was
just
talking
about
the
transportation
department
and
how
proactively
they
are
asking
folks
to
be
on
their
task
force
to
to
give
them
feedback
and-
and
then
you
know,
their
services
are
a
little
bit
more
black
and
white,
and
so
they
can
probably
easily
do
that
right.
I
I'm
not
saying
that
they,
we
should
all
learn
from
them,
but
you
know
that
there
certainly
are
some
steps
ahead
and
I
wouldn't
expect
that
in
the
transportation
department
right.
I
just
wouldn't
expect
that
in
in
that
department,
but,
like
I
said,
you
know
their
their
services
and
in
the
way
that
they
are
just
and
their
product
is
a
little
bit
more
black
and
white.
But
so
I
I
would
like
to
see
in
that
mba
how
it
would
adhere
to
some
of
that
training.
How
would
what?
I
How
would
we
make
ensure
that
some
of
the
met
that
we
all
agree
on
metrics-
and
I
think
you
know,
council,
member?
As
far
as
myself,
we
put
out
a
memo
that
talked
about
that
and
we
have
certain
metrics
there
that
our
council
mates
all
agreed
on,
and
so
I
want
to
make
sure
that
those
are
acknowledged
as
well
as
past
memos
from
this
council
as
policy
guidance
for
the
department.
I
know
the
work
plan
is
still.
I
It
is
still
in
the
making
it's
by
no
means
done,
and
so
that
is
exciting
because
it
allows
us
to
mold.
It
allows
us
to
continue
this
conversation
that
is
very
much
needed,
and
while
we
do
that,
I
think
a
lot
of
departments
have
pivoted
very
well
to
respond
to
our
most
neediest
of
our
of
our
residents
during
this
pandemic,
and
so
I
think
that's
where
you
know
this
is
where
dave
you're,
you're
saying
you
we're
we're
already
moving
in
this
direction.
We
may
it
may
not
be
under.
I
You
know
exactly
we're
not
checking
off
this
list
in
the
work
plan,
but
we
are
moving
towards
that
direction,
and
I
can
certainly
appreciate
that
I'd
like
to
see
more
of
the
policy
guidance
that
has
been
previously
expressed
by
some
of
our
our
councilmates
and
myself.
There
was
a
whole
memo
that
was
included
and,
and-
and
maybe
this
is
where
councilmember
perales
might
want
to
resurrect
it,
as
he
was
heading
that
piece
of
that
memo
the
year
it
was
not
approved
by
this
council.
I
It
was
a
through
budget
memo.
So
that's
my
that's
my
my
feedback
around
there.
I
I
do
think
that
there's
a
lot
of
work
to
yet
to
be
done,
and
I
look
forward
to
seeing
how
our
policy
guidance
aligns
with
that
mba
and
and
how
we
hold
our
departments
accountable
to
this
adherence
of
equity.
B
All
right
other
questions
or
comments.
I
again
any
comments
from
members
of
the
public
on
this
item.
This
is
support
services
and
council
appointees,
okay,
dave.
I
think
that
wraps
it
up
well,.
C
I
just
want
to
throw
this
out
there
mayor,
you
know
given
where
we
are.
We
can
definitely
tackle
fees
and
charges
today
and
capital
today
and
then
cancel
tomorrow
and
then
pick
back
up
on
monday
with
the
community
and
economic
recovery,
or
we
could
stop
today
and
just
do
the
fees
and
charges
in
capital
tomorrow,
I'll
just
leave
that
in
your
hands,
but
we're
prepared
to
and
we're
the
agenda
allows
us
to
to
finish
up
these
items
today.
Should
the
council
want
tomorrow
morning
off.
B
Yeah,
could
I
throw
out
a
third
suggestion
and
see
if
this
one,
if
we
were
to
put
fees
and
charges
and
capital
which
tend
to
be
pretty
short
discussions,
as
I
recall,
can
we
throw
those
all
into
monday,
because
I
looked
at
the
capital
section?
I
don't
know
if
my
colleagues
have
or
not,
but
I
just.
C
We
absolutely
could
I'm
seeing
jim
not
and
that's
that's
actually,
maybe
a
better
idea
that
way
you
we
have
tomorrow
morning
to
kind
of
we
have
so
much
work
to
do
so.
It's
we
can
use
the
time
well
and
then
monday
morning
we
would
start
with
fusing
charges
and
capital
and
and
then
move
into
community
and
economic
recovery.
If
that's
what
the
council
wants,
yeah.
C
B
Okay,
great
well,
then
that's
what
we'll
do.
I
appreciate
all
the
all
the
great
information
and,
more
importantly,
all
the
hard
work.
