Okay,
as
we
can
tell
from
the
voices,
not
everybody's
feeling
at
the
top
of
the
game
today,
so
I
hope
everyone's
feeling
better
on
the
other
side
of
the
screen,
soon,
all
right,
if
you're
able
to
stand,
please
join
us
in
the
pledge
of
allegiance.

And
in
honor
of
international
women's
day,
it
is
my
pleasure
to
have
michelle
ramirez-martinez,
the
community
specialist
at
bay
area,
women's
sports
initiative
or
bossie
here
to
do
our
invitation
today.
Basi
provides
powerful
interventions
for
the
most
vulnerable
children
in
our
communities
in
the
form
of
programs
that
focus
on
proven
factors
that
help
increase
resiliency
in
children
living
with
adversity
at
bossie.
Michelle
is
a
coach
for
girls,
programming,
leading
the
youth
participatory
evaluation
project
and
building
out
the
middle
school
curriculum
in
east
san
jose.
G
She
continues
to
incorporate
her
passions
for
building
a
strong
sense
of
identity
and
creating
access
to
higher
education.
Through
an
initiative
she
helped
develop
to
aid
young
girls
from
under-resourced
communities
as
they
embark
in
the
college
application
process.
Michelle
has
used
her
experiences
as
an
advocate
organizer
athlete
and
woman
of
color
to
learn
from
and
help
support
the
next
generation
of
leaders.
It
is
my
pleasure
to
introduce
michelle
ramirez
martinez,
who
will
be
doing
today's
invitation
in
honor
of
her
mother,
martha,
patricia
martinez-lopez,
who
passed
away
last
year
from
cover
19.
H
Hello,
my
name
is
michelle
ramirez-martinez
and
I'm
the
community
specialist
and
coach
at
the
bay
area,
women's
sports
initiative
or
bossie.
I
would
like
to
thank
council
member
perales,
mayor
le
cardo
and
the
entire
city
council
for
having
me
here
today
on
international
women's
day.
I
would
like
to
give
this
invocation
in
honor
of
my
own
mother,
marta
patricia
martinez
lopez
who
passed
away
last
year
from
covent
19..
H
My
mother
was
my
biggest
role
model.
She
did
it
all
not
only
providing
at
home
as
a
single
mom,
but
also
dabbling
at
many
different
occupations.
She
worked
at
a
mexican
pharmacy,
a
bakery
at
the
flea
market,
cleaning
houses
and,
ultimately
at
otakeriya.
I
remember
when
she
worked
at
the
taqueria.
I
was
nine
years
old.
We
lived
in
a
small
studio,
a
couple
blocks
away
from
city
hall
in
the
washington
neighborhood.
H
She
would
wake
me
up
every
morning
at
4.
45
am
to
take
me
with
her
to
work.
I
napped
in
the
car
outside
the
taqueria,
while
my
mother
prepped,
for
the
day
of
labor
ahead
at
7am
mom,
would
take
her
break
to
drive
me
to
school.
I
would
stay
after
school
in
a
child
care
program
until
6
pm,
when
my
mom
would
get
out
of
work.
Take
me
home
and
wait
for
the
routine
to
start
again.
The
following
day,
my
mother
was
also
an
activist.
H
She
truly
believed
in
the
power
of
people
to
change
situations,
not
just
on
a
surface
level
but
structurally
as
well.
She
knew
that
even
one
person
speaking
out
could
start
a
conversation
and
move
us
all
in
the
right
direction.
I'll
always
remember
her
passion
every
may
day
when
she
would
march
from
king
road
all
the
way
to
city
hall
and
support
and
to
show
her
care
for
all
the
undocumented
families
in
our
community.
I
first
marched
alongside
my
mother
when
I
was
seven
years
old.
H
She
showed
me
the
power
of
our
voices
and
the
power
of
unity.
When
I
was
in
the
third
grade,
I
joined
bossy
girls
on
its
surface.
Bossy
may
seem
like
a
program
that
only
focuses
on
increasing
sports
access
to
young
girls
from
under-resourced
communities,
but
it
is
truly
so
much
more
bossy
was
my
first
introduction
to
physical
activity
and
sports
girl-centered
leadership,
mentoring
and
even
college.
When
I
joined
bossy
girls,
my
mother
was
ecstatic.
She
recognized
the
power
of
more
women
uniting
to
lift
up
her
own
daughter.
H
She
felt
comfort,
knowing
that
each
woman
from
entirely
different
backgrounds
and
experiences
was
invested
in
us
and
believed
in
our
ability
to
succeed
on
this
international
women's
day.
As
you
begin
this
session,
I
would
ask
you
to
also
honor
my
mother.
In
these
three
ways.
One
make
sure
all
women
in
our
community
are
seen
heard
and
valued.
H
That
means
noticing,
when
they're,
not
in
your
meetings
noticing,
when
their
voices
aren't
being
represented
and
finding
ways
to
bring
women
to
the
table,
two
invest
in
women-centered
leadership
and
consistent
programs
with
proven
impact
for
women
and
girls
like
bossie
and
three
celebrate
all
the
women
in
your
lives
and
in
our
uniquely
cosmopolitan
and
international
city.
Thank
you.
G
Thank
you
mayor
and
to
my
colleagues,
and
I
I
can
say
personally,
I'm
tremendously
proud
to
be
bringing
a
young
girl
into
this
community,
knowing
that
there
are
women
like
michelle
out
there
to
help
be
inspirations
and
role
models.
Thank
you.
D
Thank
you
councilman
cross,
and
thank
you
michelle
for
the
great
work
that
you
and
bossy
do
in
our
community
every
day,
all
right,
council,
members,
carrasco
and
cohen.
Please
join
me
at
the
podium
we're
going
to
recognize
proclaim
march
13th
as
the
150th
anniversary
of
alan
rock
park
in
san
jose.
This
is
the
first
municipal
park
in
the
state
of
california
and
we're
very
proud.
I
Okay,
good
afternoon,
we
have
a
collage
of
pictures
that
I
was
going
to
share
that
we
found
during
our
research
about
the
park.
I'm
going
to
take
this
off.
While
I
speak,
it's
a
little
bit
easier,
so
I'm
very
honored
to
be
here
today
to
present
this
accommodation
for
the
150th
anniversary.
I
want
to
thank
my
colleagues,
councilmember
carrasco
and
mayor
ricardo,
as
well
for
being
part
of
this
celebration
today,
there's
a
deep
history
in
this
park
for
my
family
and
for
millions
of
visitors
to
allen
rock
park
over
the
150
years.
I
It
was
as
a
result
of
this,
so
many
people
coming
to
the
park
that
the
train
that
used
to
go
to
the
park
was
removed,
but
nothing
has
marked
the
history
of
alimorock
park
more
than
the
constant
struggle
with
nature,
whether
it
be
the
fault
lines
that
surround
it.
Erosion
in
the
sandy
loamy
soils,
the
fires
that
have
burned
the
hillsides
and
the
one-time
hotel,
the
floods
that
washed
away
the
old
train
tracks
or
the
damage
from
the
last
flood
that
fema
is
now
working
on.
I
I
You
can
spot
deer
foxes,
brush
rabbits
quail,
hawks
turkeys
and
the
occasional
mountain
lion
that
call
the
diablo
mountain
range
their
home,
but
animals
and
people
aren't
the
only
visitors
to
the
park
over
the
last
150
years.
A
meteor
once
made
its
way
into
the
park.
In
fact,
I
think
there's
a
photo
right
up
there
of
the
meteor
in
the
park
in
1918.
It
was
broken
up
to
support
the
war
effort
and
rendered
39
tons
of
high-grade
manganese
ore
made
used
for
armor
plating.
I
The
land
has
also
had
to
be
protected
from
commercial
exploitation
with
gold
and
oil
prospectors
and
those
seeking
to
privatize
the
land
to
use
for
uses
such
as
the
saloon
and
the
hotel.
There
was
even
a
group
that
wanted
to
use
it
for
trains
as
a
route
to
bypass
the
diablo
mountain
range
current
day.
Allen
rock
park
does
not
addre
attract
the
tens
of
thousands
of
people
every
weekend
as
it
did
in
the
past,
but
it's
still
an
incredible
resource
of
generational
experiences
for
our
community.
I
My
family's
use
of
the
park
over
the
years
highlights
things
it
has
to
offer.
My
kids
grew
up
attending
youth
science
institute
every
summer
camps,
where
students
from
across
the
region
and
other
others
learned
experience,
learned
and
experienced
about
the
outdoors
and
got
to
see
wildlife
up,
close
and
learn.
Science,
local
berryessa
and
alumrock
schools
send
their
students
off
to
alum
rock
park
on
field
trips.
They
walk
up
from
penitentiary,
creek
road
up
to
youth
science
institute.
They
learn
about
the
local
environment
and
get
to
see
wildlife
that
they
have
in
their
museum.
I
Every
time
my
dad
came
to
visit
us
in
town,
he
would
walk
he'd,
leave
our
house
and
walk
to
allen
rock
park
he'd
be
gone
for
hours.
He'd
come
back
into
the
house,
getting
all
excited
and
saying
I
made
it
to
the
top
and
he
would
try
to
hike
to
the
top
of
the
park
every
year
when
he
came
to
visit
today.
I
I
The
parks
department
has
done
a
viewing
of
the
perseid
meteor
showers
and
my
family's
joined
them
for
those
events
as
well,
it's
a
great
opportunity
to
see
the
sky
even
while
still
close
to
the
city.
So
I'm
excited
that
we're
celebrating
150th
anniversary
of
the
park.
It's
a
gem
of
san
jose
and
I
hope
you'll
all
join
us
on
may
14th
for
the
official
celebration
at
the
park.
J
Thank
you,
council,
member,
I'm
magdalena,
carrasco
and
and
councilmember
cohen,
and
I
share
the
beautiful
alumrock
park
and
I'm
excited
to
be
able
to
celebrate
the
150th
anniversary
of
california's
oldest
municipal
park,
also
known
as
little
yosemite
as
council
member
cohen
just
pointed
out.
J
J
You
may
have
come
across
it,
you'll.
Remember
it,
you
you'll,
recognize
it
right
away
when
you
smell
it,
but
you
know
who
am
I
to
judge
some
people
really
enjoy
it,
and
and
people
came
to
the
they
flocked
to
it,
for
its
natural
healing
powers
and
on
the
historic
olimark
avenue.
The
gateway
to
alumrock
park
run
a
railway
system
that
connected
from
downtown
san
jose
to
the
park
and
ran
for
over
30
years,
and
when
vta
was
investing
through
alumni
corridor
in
2015,
which
is
right.
J
It
was
underneath
many
layers
of
pavement,
it's
possibly
one
of
the
coolest
features
and
one
of
the
coolest
features
of
the
park
which
was
brought
in
which
brought
in
tens
of
thousands
of
visitors
was
the
natatorium
pool
with
a
60-foot
slide
named
the
plunge.
J
J
What
I
remember
most
about
alan
rock
were
easter.
Sundays,
have
a
very
extensive
and
expansive
family.
My
mother
and
my
father
came
here
many
many
years
ago
and
have
since
left
me
they
passed
away
years
ago.
In
fact,
today
is
my
mother's
fourth
year
anniversary,
since
she
left,
but
she
left
a
legacy
of
many
memories,
and
so
I
remember
hiding
easter
eggs
and
taking
long
hikes
and
one
of
the
one
of
the
most
recent
memories
I
have
is
of
taking
my
team
and
this
old
lady
here
out,
walking
and
out
hiking
them.
J
So
there
you
go.
Alan
rock
steele
holds
fond
memories
for
me
and
while
I
lost
the
park
during
our
redistricting
process
to
district
four,
it
reinforces
something
it
reinforces.
That
parks
are
for
everybody
and
it's
our
responsibility
to
take
care
of
them,
especially
since,
for
many
of
our
families
parks
were
the
only
place
they
could
escape
to
during
the
covet
19
shutdown,
it's
important,
we
honor
alam
rock
and
all
the
parks
really
in
our
district
and
throughout
the
city,
because
we
know
that
they
encourage
active
lifestyles
and
reduce
health
costs.
J
J
J
They
should
all
have
access
to
these
beautiful
parks.
Alumrock
is
a
time
capsule.
It's
where
you
can
reconnect
with
nature,
learn
our
city's
history
and
be
at
peace,
except,
of
course,
where
squirrels
are
at
your
lunch.
There's
many
squirrels
there,
but
nonetheless
it's
where
you
can
make
memories,
everlasting
memories,
it's
where
I
reconnect
with
my
mother
and
father,
even
though
they're
not
with
me
in
body.
I
know
that
they
are
with
me
in
spirit.
Thank
you.
So
much.
G
Hi,
my
name
is
john
cecirelli,
I'm
the
director
of
parks,
recreation,
neighborhood
services,
so
we
care
for
alum
rock
park
and
all
the
visitors
that
come
there.
I
do
want
to
make
sure
to
reiterate:
may
14th
is
our
main
celebration,
so
please
join
us
for
that,
but
also
throughout
the
summer,
a
couple
dozen
different
events,
anything
from
entertainment
and
fun
to
interpretation,
etc.
So,
there's
something
for
everybody.
It's
a
lot
of
family
fun.
I
do
before
I
thank
some
staff.
G
I
do
want
to
recognize,
though,
that
the
original
residents
of
this
land
were
the
tamiyan
people
and
they
in
fact
had
a
village
there
along
penitentiary
creek.
It
went
up
to
middle
springs,
which
they
considered
a
sacred
site,
so
I
do
want
to
make
sure
we
recognize
that
as
part
of
our
event,
I
want
to
thank
the
mayor,
councilman
cohen
and
carrasco,
for
putting
aside
some
funding.
So
we
can
do
all
these
fun
things
through
the
summer
and
and
and
recognize
what
this
park
does.
G
I
want
to
thank
our
partners,
the
open
space
authority,
for
example,
who
will
actually
be
recognizing
the
park
as
well
at
their
meeting
on
thursday
valley,
water
use,
science
institute
who's,
a
long-term
partner
there,
the
tommy
nation,
of
course,
the
san
jose
conservation
corps,
who
comes
out
and
does
work
with
us
there,
both
to
protect
fire
and
clear
trails,
and
things
like
that.
Our
own
particular
staff
led
by
avio
tom,
our
deputy
director
dan
greeley,
our
parks
supervisor,
our
manager
over
there,
danny
hazlett
and
joe
wynn
park
facility
supervisors
and
their
team.
G
Chris
boyer,
christina
kratzman,
noah
rouleau,
who
are
all
helping
the
planning
and
program
that
I
just
talked
about
for
the
summer.
So
they've
been
working
hard
mark,
rainer
who's,
our
an
exhibit
builder,
but
he's
also
sort
of
our
de
facto
historian
for
alum
rock
park.
I
mean
he
that
does
great
research
our
supervising
park
rangers.
This
is
certainly
our
most
significant
park
when
it
comes
to
park
rangers
and
while
it's
a
great
wild
area
that
presents
its
own
dangers
and
challenges.
So
we're
constantly
having
to
be
there
and
making
sure
people
are
safe.
G
Our
senior
park,
our
supervising
park,
rangers
pam,
helmke
and
lucia
wade
I
do
want
to
particularly
and
their
whole
team
of
rangers,
but
I
do
want
to
particularly
call
out
who
are
here
today:
senior
ranger,
matt,
madrinsky
who's,
leading
the
effort
to
restore
the
mineral
springs
and
senior
ranger.
We
mack
who's,
leading
the
effort
to
restart
their
interpreter
program,
not
only
alm
rock
but
in
other
parks
in
our
city,
so
with
that
and
they're
by
the
way
rangers
will
celebrate
their
50th
year
anniversary
of
being
a
program
this
year.

our
understaffed
park,
maintenance
team
that
worked
so
hard
and
the
many
volunteers
who
make
this
jewel
of
our
city
really
shine.
So
I
want
to
thank
everyone
and
with
that,
let's
present
this
accommodation
to
you
john,
and
we
look
forward.
H
D
D
D
All
right
council
member
cross
goes
here
so
she'll
be
able
to
to
remain
here,
but
I
see
pedro
perez
and
other
friends
here,
ready
to
celebrate
the
meshico
new
year.
We
will
be,
I
know,
they'll,
be
I
guess
march
12th.
Is
that
right?
Okay,
councilman
crosstalk
will
tell
us
more.
J
J
J
It's
often
suspended
in
history
divorced
from
contemporary
relevance.
I
bring
this
proclamation
forward
to
say
that
native
people
are
not
on
view
for
us,
but
instead
we
are
in
conversation
with
them.
Locally.
San
jose
is
home
to
an
indigenous
population
of
5726,
that's
less
than
one
percent
less
than
one
percent
of
our
total
population
and
according
to
the
2020
census,
datas
nationwide.
That
number
stands
at
3.7
million
about
1.1
percent
of
the
total
population.
J
I
highly
encourage
you
to
come
for
the
whole
weekend,
but
especially
friday,
as
it
will
be
historic,
seeing
that
the
aloni
will
be
doing
their
ceremonial
dance
for
the
first
time
in
150
years
it
will
be
a
weekend
full
of
culture,
dance
and
good
company
in
honor
of
today.
I'd
like
to
present
this
proclamation
there,
you
have
it
oh
mayor,
you
have
it.
J
This
is
a
cultural
group
based
here
in
san
jose
who,
for
years,
have
worked
hard
to
ensure
that
this
culture
is
maintained
and
even
make
its
way
to
mainstream
their
program.
Embraces
our
kiddos
and
families
and
remind
us
to
value
our
connection
to
indigenous
culture,
to
respect
and
honor
the
land
that
we
stand
on
and
to
view
the
world
beyond
what
we
see
to
recognize
the
life
and
spirit
among
every
living
being.
G
We
are
happy
to
recuperate
our
culture
and
specifically,
our
ancient
aztec
calendar
that
has
evolved
from
a
symbol
of
cultural
pride
to
a
tool
that
we
use
now
on
a
daily
basis.
We
are
entering
the
year
matlak
litoshtli
10th
house,
in
our
now.
What
language
and
philosophy
matlackly
means
the
joining
of
the
hands,
and
the
number
10
is
represented
by
our
fingers.
G
It
also
represents
the
duality
of
our
hands.
As
we
say
in
our
culture
with
two
hands
we
make
tortillas
our
hands
also
represents
reflection,
as
one
hand
is
the
mirror
image
of
the
other.
Like
the
mirror.
We
look
at
every
day.
It
helps
us
get
to
know
ourselves.
Better
ghostly
in
our
native
language
means
rabbit.
G
G
D
Thank
you,
gentlemen.
All
right,
councilman
arenas
is
making
her
way
down
to
recognize
and
commend
kanta
kiatani
and
family.
A
Thank
you
mayor.
As
my
guests
comment
and
join
me
up
here,
I'm
just
gonna,
say
good
afternoon
to
everyone
else.
I
have
the
absolute
honor
to
recognize
a
dedicated
community
member
in
my
district
kanta
ki
tiani,
and
when
I
think
about
kanta,
I
think
of
all
the
warmth
and
positivity
and
passion
that
she
exudes
for
our
community
and
families
and
if
love
or
sunshine
can
have
a
human
form,
it
would
be,
it
would
be
kanta.
A
She
has
devoted
so
much
time
and
tireless
efforts
and
invaluable
services.
Patricia
it's
okay,
she's
also
very,
very
happy
for
kanta.
A
Patricia
is
our
president
of
our
evergreen
leaders,
association
jukanta,
is
part
of,
and
I,
as
I
was
saying,
I
know
that
she
she
take
she's
sunshine
in
human
form,
but
she's
also
a
force
to
be
reckoned
with,
because
she
has
fought
really
hard
for
our
seniors
in
our
seniors.
Our
city,
seniors
commission,
as
well
as
in
the
evergreen
leadership
group
she's,
provided
a
warm
space
for
our
indian
community
to
celebrate
their
diwali
celebration
every
year.
A
I
look
forward
to
it
this
year
once
again,
kanta
or
whenever
we
are
ready
to
to
actually
do
that.
She's
really
led
by
example,
by
inspiring
individuals
through
her
passion
for
public
service
and
really
I
could
go
on
and
on
about
her
accomplishments,
but
I
think
one
of
her
greatest
accomplishments
is
her
family
and
her
newborn
baby
granddaughter
audrey.
It's
a
congratulations
for
that.
A
Oh
and
her
wonderful,
wonderful,
husband
locke,
who
is
always
there
at
her
side,
providing
moral
support
and
actually
also
getting
his
hands
into
the
mix
when
it
comes
to
anything
to
do
with
our
community,
and
so
thank
you
so
much
log,
because
this
recognition
is
not
only
for
kanta
but
for
her
family
and
you
as
her
husband
or
her
life
partner
and
you've
shared
that
passion
and
enthusiasm
with
her.
A
So
I
really
just
want
to
thank
you
contact
for
all
the
work
that
you've
done
and
the
people
who
are
standing
next
to
kantar
some
of
the
people
who
work
with
her
on
a
daily
or
we
used
to
before
the
pandemic,
and
so
I
want
to
thank
molina
mo
ruth
had
to
go
and
david,
and
so
thank
you
so
much
for
for
being
here.
I
wasn't
sure
if
you
wanted
to
share
just
a
little
message.
Q
Good
afternoon
everybody,
my
name
is
mo.
I
am
the
recreation
supervisor

the
evergreen

Q
Overseeing
all
of
our
active
adult
population-
and
it
has
been
an
absolute
pleasure
working
with
kanta
she's
amazing.
She
has
dedicated
and
supported
countless
hours
to
our
active
adult

as
well
as
our
district
8
area.
F
I
just
want

kanta.
We
genuinely

Thank

Sylvia
arena.
I
have
been
evergreen
residents
since
1986,
and
I've
been
here
in
a
community
from
african.
H
From
2006.,
I've
been
working
with
them,
and
I've
been
with
the
community.
I've
been
with
the
senior
center
and
plus
with
the
evergreen
area
outside
seniors
we
get
together.
We
do
all
the
things
I
really
thanks
to
senior
center,
which
they
gave
us
some
opportunity
for
the
senior
to
do
a
lot
of
work.
There
we
come
for
the
exercise,
we
come
for
the
lunch
we
come
to
meet
each
other
when
they're
alone
at
home.
H
H
D
H
D
All
right
on
orders
of
the
day
staff
is
requesting
a
deferral
of
one
week
on
item
2.15
for
actions
related
to
the
naming
rights
of
the
ice
center
of
san
jose
and
the
competition
arena.
Are
there
any
other
changes
to
the
printed
agenda?.
R
D
D
Yeah,
forgive
me
councilmember,
thank
you
for
jumping
in
go
ahead.
R
R
D
Okay,
that's
the
motion,
any
other
comments
or
questions.
I'm
sorry,
I'm
trying
to
pull
up
the
if
anyone
has
their.
D
Okay,
thank
you.
There
is
now
a
second.
D
Is
it
possible?
We
could
push
that
one
more
week,
council
member
jimenez,
I
think
so
so.
R
D
So
I'm
getting
the
indication
of
our
city
management
may
be
easier
schedule-wise
on
the
on
the
calendar
as
well:
okay
and
that's
okay
with
the
secondary.
D
Yes,
all
right
other
items
to
pull;
I'm
sorry
rather
to
changes
to
the
printed
agenda.
Okay,
let's
vote
on
orders
of
the
day.
D
Okay,
all
right:
let's
move
on
to
the
closed
session
report.
F
Thank
you
mayor.
We
do
not
have
any
items
to
report
out
of
post
session
today.
D
Okay,
thank
you
on
the
consent
calendar.
In
addition,
any
items
that
the
council
would
like
to
pull
and
I
welcome
anyone
raising
their
hands.
I
know
we
are
blessed
to
have
irish
vice
council
general
and
forgive
me
vice
console.
If
I
mispronounced
your
name,
I
believe
it's
dorian
o'brien.
D
He
is
on
zoom
and
would
like
to
speak
on
item
2.8,
just
the
city
hall
tower
and
rotunda
lighting
for
st
patrick's
day
in
celebration
of
our
sister
city
relationship
with
dublin,
and
I
believe
councilmember
carrasco
would
like
to
pull
item
2.13,
which
relates
to
the
projects
at
emma
prush
and
counselor
foley
like
to
pull
item
2.18
regarding
the
approval
district,
9
mayoral
candidate
forum.
D
H
D
H
Thank
you
so
much
mayor.
Thank
you!
So
much
and
and
don't
worry
about
my
name.
It
is
absolutely
impossible
to
read
and
pronounce
it
could
you
pronounce
it
for
us
it
it's
jiren.
It's
stupid.
D
H
But
as
as
I
say
that
all
the
vowels
certainly
do
not
help,
but
thank
you
so
much
for
for
having
me
here
today.
Our
consul
general
robert
o'driscoll
was
was
due
to
speak
to
you
today,
but
he
and
his
wife
actually
welcomed
their
their
second
baby
yesterday.
H
So
so
he
sends
us,
hopefully
understandable
regrets,
but
but
it
is
an
absolute
pleasure
and-
and
I
am
honored
and
delighted
to
speak
to
you
all
during
this
st
patrick's
day
season,
as
we
say
to
to
to
mark
ireland's
national
day
and
indeed
irish
american
heritage
month.
H
As
you
may
know,
you
know
this
time
of
year
is-
is
an
incredibly
important
one
for
us,
irish,
the
irish
diaspora
and
and
anyone
affiliated
with
ireland
and
this
year.
Actually
2022
marks
really
important
anniversaries
for
irish
political
and
cultural
history.
It's
the
centenary
of
the
formation
of
ireland's
first
independent
state,
and
it's
also
100
years
since
the
since
the
publication
of
james
joyce's
ulysses,
which
I'm
sure
you've
all
heard
of
one
one
note.
H
You
know,
I
think
it's
important
to
say
that
as
we
as
a
community
mark
the
saint
patrick's
day,
we
do
so
against
the
backdrop
of
a
war
in
europe.
So
I
just
I
just
want
to
take
this
opportunity
to
declare
ireland's
solidarity
with
ukraine
and
to
acknowledge
the
resilience
and
courage
of
their
people
and
democratic
and
humanitarian
values
are
central
to
irish
identity,
and
russia's
aggression
against
ukraine
is
unjustified,
unprovoked
and
immoral,
and
it
really
is
a
gross
violation
of
international
law
and
the
u.n
charter.
H
It's
also,
I
think,
important,
to
acknowledge
that
this
st
patrick's
day
coincides
with
the
gradual
lifting
of
public
health
restrictions
as
a
threat
posed
by
the
pandemic
receives
and
many
people
we're
really
glad
to
say
we'll
celebrate
st
patrick's
day
in
person
this
year
and
that
we
can
do
so
in
a
safe
manner.
I
think
we
really
feel,
as
it
is,
a
big
success
and
I'm
sure
you'll
all
agree,
so
the
saint
patrick's
day
we're
celebrating
three
things,
so.
H
Firstly,
the
irish
community
in
california,
I
believe
over
two
million
in
the
state
claim
irish
descent
and
and
the
manner
in
which
they've
weathered
the
storm
over
the
past
two
years.
H
We
also
remember
the
shared
history
and
heritage
between
ireland
and
california
and
there's
arguably
nowhere
in
the
world
where
ireland
has
had
a
more
formative
impact
in
the
golden
state.
It's
it's
kind
of
through
an
accident
of
history,
and
I'm
sure
this
is
the
same
for
for
many
countries,
but
the
darkest
moment
in
irish
history.
The
famine
coincided
with
the
gold
rush
in
california.
H
So
irish
really
came
here
in
the
droves
in
the
1800s
and
really
haven't
stopped
since,
and
there's
been
many
influential
irish
and
irish
americans
in
the
state
and
not
least,
a
woman
who
we
at
the
irish
consulate
celebration
commemorated
this
month,
kate
kennedy
and
for
those
of
you
don't
know,
kennedy
was
a
san
francisco
school
teacher
born
in
mead
ireland,
who
won
the
landmark
california
supreme
court
judgment,
establishing
equal
pay
for
equal
work
in
california,
but
she's,
just
one
and
she's
just
one
example
of
the
irish
who
played
an
instrumental
role
in
the
city
and
finally,
we
celebrate
the
dynamic
and
vibrant
contemporary
links
between
ireland
and
california,
which
really
have
demonstrated
enormous
resilience
over
the
last
two
years.
H
So
today
I
think
over
45
000
people
in
ireland
are
employed
in
companies,
headquartered
in
the
u.s
west
coast
and
around
30.
000
californians
are
employed
in
ireland
companies
here,
and
I
know
that
san
jose
is
twin
to
dublin,
which
is
a
really
important,
vibrant
aspect
of
the
relationship
and,
not
least
with
driving
relationships
with
in
the
technology
sector.
H
In
2019,
over
a
quarter
of
a
million
californians
visited
ireland
and
almost
60
000
irish
came
to
california,
which
is
a
hugely
vibrant
exchange
of
our
people
and
post-pandemic
and
post-pandemic.
I
mean
we
really
want
to
see
this
return,
and
so
we're
really
delighted
that
the
direct
flight
between
dublin
and
san
francisco
has
returned
we're
not
resting
on
our
laurels,
however,
and
we
don't
take
this
relationship
for
granted.
So
over
the
last
two
years,
the
irish
government
has
demonstrated
our
commitment
to
california
by
opening
a
new
consulate.
H
H
We
know
we
can
continue
to
build
on
these
linkages
and
we
will
do
more
and
more
in
california,
and
engagements
like
this
at
every
level,
are,
are
so
important
for
strengthening
the
relationship
and
on
the
note
I
just
want
to
thank
you
so
much
for
inviting
me
here
to
speak
today
and
best
of
luck
to
those
who
might
be
participating
in
the
shamrock.
Fun
run
this
weekend
as
well
so
gurmeela
maga,
and
thank
you
so
much
for
your
time.
D
Thank
you
vice
council.
We
appreciate
your
words
and
your
partnership
and
on
behalf
of
my
temporary
county-born
grandmother,
I
will
say
she
will
not
rest
until
we
do
have
a
direct
flight
from
san
jose
to
dublin
as
well.
So
I
look
forward
to
your
partnership
in
securing
that
very
important
flight
and
we
look
forward
to
continued
celebration
of
our
sister
city
relationship,
which
is
so
important
as
well
as
all
that
happens
around
st
patrick's
all
right
on
this
item.
You
can
hear
public
comment
this
time.
Tony.
C
F
That
now
I
want
to
remind
council,
members
and
members
of
the
public
to
follow
our
code
of
conduct
at
meetings.
This
includes
commenting
on
the
specific
agenda
item
only
and
addressing
the
full
body.
Public
speakers
will
not
engage
in
a
conversation
with
the
council,
members
or
staff.
All
members
of
the
council
staff
and
public
are
expected
to
refrain
from
abusive
language,
repeated
failure
to
comply
with
the
code
of
conduct
which
will
disturb,
disrupt
or
impede
the
orderly
conduct
of
this
meeting
may
result
in
removal
from
the
meeting.
S
Yeah
hi
blair
beekman.
Here
I
wanted
to
comment
on
the
lighting
ceremony
and
just
I
wanted
to
offer
a
a
congratulations
that
you
know
year
after
year.
S
I
think
the
sister
city
program
is
a
very
important
program.
Thank
you
for
for
this
item.
At
this
time,.
P
Yeah
I
want
to
thank
the
city
for
finally
recognizing
other
holidays
that
are
important,
which
st
patrick's
day
is.
I'm
glad
we
have
a
sister
city
like
dublin.
I
wonder
if
their
city
council
meetings
have
these
type
of
rules
that
are
dictated
before
we
go
to
speak,
probably
not,
but
yeah,
I'm
happy
they're
writing
their
rotunda.
I
wish
they'd
do
it
for
christmas
and
other
holidays,
and
also
for
saint
joseph's
day.
I
vote
for
that
one
too.
P
It's
kind
of
a
brother
holiday
for
italian
americans
on
on
march
19th
and
once
again,
I'd
like
to
thank
the
representative
from
dublin,
for
I
wish
we
had
her
as
our
as
our
city
council
people.
She
sounds
like
a
really
nice
person
and
I'm
glad
that
we
are
partnered
up
with
dublin
and
it's
gonna
be
a
great
relationship
from
now
until
you
know
the
end
of
time
really
and
I'm
really
happy
that
the
city's
actually
doing
something
positive.
P
Usually
it's
not,
and
if
you
know,
if
it
makes
me
happy,
then
that's
you
guys
are
actually
did
something
right
this
week.
Usually
you
don't
you
know,
usually
you
don't
you
guys
do
the
wrong
thing
every
single
time.
This
is
definitely
the
right
thing,
even
though
I
have
an
italian
surname,
I
have
a
lot
of
irish
heritage,
so
it
also
makes
me
happy
in
that
way,
and
you
know,
let's
face
facts-
it's
fun
to
have
a
drink
on
st
patrick's
day.
C
The
specific
information
and
and
the
direction
consent
I
do
think
st
patrick's
day-
is
a
wonderful
day
to
celebrate
and
the
cultural
heritage
shared
around
the
world
by
people
of
irish
descent
and
who
live
in
ireland.
I'm
a
big
part
of
my
family
was
irish.
My
big.
C
Make
it
through
the
famine?
Actually
the
part
that
led
to
where
we're
at
now
to
me,
you
know,
did,
but
we
lost
lots
of
people,
and
it's
it's
very
important
to
understand
that
that
famine
did
happen
and
what
led
up
to
it
and
the
effect
it's
even
had
now.
C
The
representative
from
ireland
was
also
from
dublin,
was
very,
very
well
spoken,
and
I
think
the
flight
from
la
I
mean
to
from
san
jose
to
dublin
would
be
wonderful
too.
Thank
you.
D
Thank
you
and
best
wishes,
certainly
to
consul
general,
as
he,
I
believe,
he's
still
awaiting
the
birth
or
he
may
have
just
celebrated
the
birth.
But
in
that
event
we
football
is
well
with,
with
his
with
his
child
and
and
and
mom
okay
on
to
item
2.13,
councilmember
carrasco.
I
believe
you'd
like
to
speak
on
this
all-inclusive
playground
at
emma
proof.
J
Thank
you
mayor.
I
thought
I
saw
john
or
someone
from
the
parks
department.
John,
are
you
there?
Where
are
you?
Oh
there,
you
are.
J
Simple
question
this:
this
is
just
standard
procedure
and
it's
not
going
to
delay
our
timeline.
You
know
we've
been
waiting
for
this
beautiful
all-inclusive
and
I
saw
the
design
which
is
going
to
be
a
big
chicken.
It's
a
big.
J
G
Oh
no,
if
the
timeline's,
I
believe,
completion
is
january.
J
Okay,
wonderful,
thank
you
so
much
so
I
just
wanted
to
thank
you,
john
and
thank
you
matt,
and
I
wanted
to
pull
this
because
we've
been
talking
about
parks
for
so
long
and
and
and
it's
such
an
important
piece
of
of
the
city
and
and
wanted
to
especially
just
call
out
emma
prush,
because
emma
plays
such
an
important
role
on
the
east
side
of
san
jose
it.
You
know,
I
it's
for
everyone
here,
who's
not
familiar
with
emma
push.
J
It
was
a
a
beautiful
part
that
was
donated
by
a
wonderful
woman
back
in
1862
and
and
since
then
it's
it's
really
served
as
a
as
a
a
beautiful
magnet
for
our
residents.
It
it
has
a
preschool.
My
now,
19
year
old
son
was
a
little
a
little
hatchery
participant.
I
just
read
at
at
the
preschool
there
for
read
across
america.
My
team
partner
there
just
a
few
weeks
ago,
would
save
the
bay
to
teach
about
urban
green
greening.
J
Of
course,
we
know
that
veggie
lucian
provides
our
city
urban
farmland
a
space
for
agricultural
programming.
They
do
wonderful
programming,
free
yoga,
the
first
saturday
of
the
month.
I've
had
free
paint
nights
there
for
our
residents,
they
teach
cooking
classes
and
composting
all
kinds
of
wonderful
stuff.
J
Of
course
you
know
that
this
weekend,
they're
going
to
have
the
largest
meshika
indigenous
new
year
celebration
in
the
world
and
and
of
course,
I
host
my
christmas
tree.
Giveaway
I've
had
budget
meetings
there
mayor
you've
been
there
talking
to
our
residents.
I've
had
my
leadership
events
and
I
throw
the
largest
national
night
out
event.
J
My
staff
made
a
mistake.
They
said
in
the
city,
you
know
it's
not
in
the
city,
it's
in
the
region,
let's
be
clear
in
the
region:
yes,
absolutely
with
thousands
and
thousands
of
residents,
because
that's
where
they
get
their
resources
and
their
information
and
and-
and
I
want
to
put
something
out-
because
this
is
this-
is
the
kind
of
a
center
that
that
emma
has
has
come
to
be
known
for
during
the
the
pandemic.
J
Emma
has
has
provided
7
500
vaccinations
during
one
of
the
most
challenging
times
that
we've
seen,
and
I
just
wanted
to
point
out
that
that
having
the
all-inclusive
playground
is
going
to
be
yet
just
another
highlight
for
our
residents,
and
I
want
to
thank
all
of
you.
I
want
to
thank
you,
john
matt.
I
want
to
thank
your
entire
team.
J
This
is
going
to
be
such
an
amazing
experience
for
our
families,
those
who,
who
are
really
facing
some
challenges
with
their
little
ones,
who
may
not
have
any
other
place
where
they
can
take
their
little
ones
and
have
accommodations
where
they
can
take
their
their
families
and
their
children
with
challenges
and
truly
have
a
place
to
to
enjoy
a
moment
with
with
true
dignity
and
be
able
to
participate.
J
I
also
want
to
thank
the
county
with
the
leadership
of
a
supervisor
chavez
who
has
contributed,
I
believe,
up
to
two
million
dollars
for
the
construction
of
this
beautiful
playground
with
a
big
giant
chicken
right
in
the
middle
of
it,
and
if
you
all
are
wondering
what
this
big
giant
chicken
is
all
about.
It's
a
structure
where
children
are
going
to
be
able
to
run
in
and
run
out
and
be
able
to
play
around
it.
J
It's,
unlike
anything
that
any
of
you
have
ever
seen,
but
it's
really
beautiful
and
I
I
hope
that
we
can
maybe
at
some
point
see
it
online
in
case
people
are,
are
curious
about
it.
So
with
that
mayor,
I
just
wanted
to
point
it
out
and
thank
everyone,
because
I
think
it's
finally
going
to
happen
and
we'll
we'll
get
a
chance
to
start
experiencing
it.
J
The
last
thing
I
just
want
to
say
is:
there's
a
lot
of
promise
and
possibility
on
the
east
side
of
san
jose
emma
cruz
park
being
one
of
them.
I
want
to
make
sure
that
that
never
falls
off
the
radar
there's
a
beautiful
red
barn
where
we
used
to
coast
because
of
the
pandemic.
We
don't
have
the
the
livestock
there,
but
we
had
livestock
there
for
the.
J
I
think
it
was
the
h,
the
4-h
club
and
hopefully
they'll
come
back
because
the
kiddos
really
loved,
seeing
them
feeding
them,
but
I
just
want
you
to
envision
going
over
the
ramps
of
highway,
680,
280
and
101,
and
the
possibility
of
lighting
up
that
red
barn
during
the
holidays
and
how
beautiful
that
would
look
if
we
could
do
that
during
the
holidays
christmas
and
especially
in
the
evenings,
and
be
able
to
really
showcase
and
show
it
off
to
everyone
that
crosses
those
ramps.
J
C
C
Idea
of
inclusive
parks
been
working
with
folks
with
physical
challenges
for
42
years
now
43
years,
and
that's
been
something
that
we've
always
hoped
for,
and
it
does
make
a
big
difference.
So
thank
you
for
that.
I'm
ben.
Thank
you.
S
Hi,
thank
you,
claire
beekman,
it's
nice
to
hear
council
person,
cross
carrasco
be
happy
and,
and
talking
about
an
east
side
park.
That's
obviously
like
a
really
good
good
park
for
all
of
us
and
boy.
It's
been
so
stressful
to
be
considering
this
current
state
of
what
east
side
parks
can
be
and
to
hear
the
you
know
just
to
hear
the
good
about
what
emma
preach
is
about
and
what
what
it
will
be
always
working
towards
a
meanwhile
it's
kind
of
an
example
for
all
of
us.
I
think
for
our
future.
S
So
thanks
for
this
item,
I
I
quickly
wanted
to
ask
that
the
chickens
that
are
a
part
of
emma
cruz
park
are
like
incredible,
and
you
know
I
love
them
very
much.
I
I
don't
know
how
how
I
just
felt.
I
should
bring
this
up
at
the
time
at
this
time
as
important
as
a
huge
giant
chicken
can
be
for
kids
to
play
around
and
and
to
be
on.
Is
that
the
right
example
for
the
chickens?
S
We
will
we
be
denigrating
the
chickens
and
their
part
in
in
the
park
process
we'll
be
taking
out
some
sort
of.
I
don't
know
organic
character
by
then
now
creating
this
large
celebratory
chicken
as
a
playground
center.
I
don't
I
don't
want
to
you
know,
I'm
not
sure
I
just
thought
I
would
bring
that
up
at
this
time
as
a
question
to
ask.
Maybe
it
is
a
good
idea,
then
we
celebrate
the
chickens
of
them
approved
even
more,
which
could
be
a
good.
S
It
is
a
good
thing,
can
be
a
good
thing
either
way.
You
know
it's
all
good
and
the
chickens
of
emma
priests
are
just
a
really
important
part
of
the
whole
park
experience,
and
so
I'm
feeling
pretty
good
in
talking
about
it.
Now
I
just
thought
I'd
mention
the
subject.
Thanks
a
lot.
P
It's
good
that
we
are
supporting
all
the
parks.
I
think
one
of
the
few
good
things
that
came
out
of
the
pandemic
was
realizing
how
important
they
are
and
the
maintenance
of
them,
which
is
very
difficult
when
you
have
so
many
and
m
approach,
is
definitely
you
know
a
five-star
park
and
well
well
kept.
I
hope
it
stays
that
way.
P
You
know
the
east
side
doesn't
isn't
the
only
area
of
town
that
has
the
parks
that
are
in
disrepair.
I
mean
other
parks,
we
all
need
money
to
go
to
these
parks
and
we
found
out
how
important
they
were
when
we
maybe
didn't
realize
how
great
they
were
before
the
pandemic,
but
I
believe
in
lighting
up
the
barn
for
christmas
time,
and
I
also
believe
that
city
hall
should
do
their
rotunda
lit
up
for
christmas
time.
P
I
want
to
actually
thank
carrasco,
which
I
don't
usually
do
to
that.
She
wants
to
light
up
the
bar
for
christmas.
She
actually
said
the
word:
she
wasn't
afraid
to
use
it.
Like
some
other
people.
I
know
on
city
council
pam
fully
yeah,
I
mean,
like
I
say,
light
these
things
up
for
all
holidays.
Don't
just
pick
and
choose
why
not,
you
know
I'm
open
and
I'm
a
taxpayer
and
I'm
a
resident,
and
sometimes
I
feel
that
maybe
my
holidays
are
not
celebrated,
for
I
don't
know
political
reason,
maybe
political
correctness.
P
B
Yes,
I
I
wanted
to
thank
michael
caller
number
one
for
all
of
his
participation,
but
mostly
you
know
that
he
was
noticing
that
you
know
we.
We
appreciated
our
parks
and
our
outdoor
space
under
covid,
and
that's
so
critical.
So
thank
you,
michael
for
realizing
that
and
that
we
need
to
put
our
values
on
that
issue
of
our
outdoor
space.
B
And
so
this
proposal
to
put
an
enclosed,
inclusive
playground
at
emma
prush,
is
valuable
to
have
that.
But
we
really
have
to
remember
what
emma
prush
was
about
is
that
she
gave
all
that
land
to
be
used
for
agricultural
purposes.
B
I
think
that
was
it
and
there
was
another
actually
where
our
old
city
hall
from
my
historic
research
was
also
given
for
only
agricultural
purposes
and
we
broke
those
promises
and
then
we,
the
state,
also
broke
the
promise
with
emma
prush
in
taking
some
of
the
land
for
the
280
highway.
B
And
so
you
know,
we
have
to
start
really
thinking
about
really
preserving
our
lands,
and
you
know
giving
it
back
to
to
growing
food
and
natural
uses,
and
that
you
know,
like
paul
soto,
has
said
you
know
we
have
taken
the
lands
from
the
that's.
What
I
mean,
even
people
are
saying
we,
we
honor
the
muekma
ohlone
people
and
the
lands
that
were
stolen
from
them.
B
So
this
is
our
heritage
of
what
we
need
to
make
amends
to
reparations
is
giving
back
the
land
to
the
people
to
provide
sustenance,
because
that's
where
we
are
right
now
is
that
we
are
in
a
climate
emergency.
We
have
to
stop
burning
fossil
fuels,
so
that
means
we
have
to
start
having
a
hyper
local
economy
and
the
emma
push
park
is
is
an
essential
part
of
that,
and
we
need
to
spread
that
of
growing
food
locally.
D
All
right,
thank
you
unless
anyone
has
any
chicken
puns,
we'll
move
on
to
the
next
item
item
2.18
the
approval
of
the
district
9
mayoral
candidate,
foreign
council
member

F
Thank

I
actually
asked

not
the
first
city
sponsored
mayoral
candidate
forum
that
you're
going
to
see,
and
it
won't
be
the
last,
but
it
will
be
the
one

I'm
running

I
hope
you'll
be

D
All
right,
thank
you.
Tony.
B
Oh,
thank
you
so
much
pam
foley
great
job
of
doing
that,
and
on
top
of
it
that
you're
allowing
all
the
mayoral
candidates,
because
my
son,
marshall,
woodman
c,
is-
is
running
for
mayor
and
and
basically
the
one
thing
I
I
was
thinking
and
what
I
also
appreciated
pam
is
that
you
did
open
it
to
all
the
mayoral
candidates.
So
thank
you.
That
was
wonderful,
and
on
top
of
it,
that
it's
going
to
be
virtual
and
that
is
so
accessible,
and
that
is
what
you
know.
B
We've
learned
is
to
how
to
make
things
accessible,
because
that
is
the
way
we
reduce
our
fossil
fuels.
Is
we
don't
have
to
drive
to
places,
and
so
keeping
that
going
is
the
lesson
that
we've
learned
we
saw.
The
air
was
clear:
the
mountains
were
visible
all
around
the
world,
and
so
following
through
to
keep
that
and
democracy
is
so
much
more
improved
through
our
virtualization.
B
So
thank
you
pam
for
keeping
it
virtual
and
and
doing
that,
and
in
addition,
the
issue
is
that
when
we,
when
people
run
for
candidates-
and
we
have
a
open
ballot,
you
know
that
we
send
ballots
to
everybody.
Everything
is
in
through
the
mail
now,
which
is
wonderful,
but
the
thing
is
you
have
to
pay
like.
I
think
it
was
like
2500
for
a
council
member
and
it's
8
000
to
have
your
bio
and
your
platform
put
onto
the
voting
guide
and
that's
that
tessa
tessa.
B
F
B
C
Fine
people
and
you're
going
to
try
really
hard,
I'm
not
sure.
Now
I
had
definite
decisions,
but
that's
good
that
this
forum's
going
to
be
there
and
to
the
present
administration.
I
know
we
can't
direct
anybody,
particularly
on
the
council,
but
I'm
going
to
take
a
chance
mayor
licardo.
Thank
you
for
your
service.
F
T
Thank
you.
I
I
just
want
to
thank
council
member
foley
for
doing
this.
I
got
my
email
on
the
mail
saying
that
you
were
having
one.
I
was
thrilled,
I'm
thrilled
that
it's
on
zoom
and
I
wanted
to
thank
you
very
much
for
this.
I
want
to
also
say
how
impressed
I
was
with
being
able
to
click
on,
registering
and
then
click
on,
send
a
question
and
the
question
everything
just
was
seamless
the
way
that
it
was
set
up.
So
I
was
impressed
with
that.
Thank
you.
T
F
R
I
just
hope
that
there
is
a
space
within
the
town
hall
to
speak
on
how
the
the
candidate,
which
is
part
of
the
vision,
zero
task
force,
I
believe,
how
they
are
seeking
to
increase
more
sustainable
approaches
to
vision
zero
by
using
maybe
infrastructure
or
educational
approaches,
as
opposed
to
the
current
trend,
which
seems
to
be
a
little
bit
more
towards
the
enforcement
side.
R
I'm
not
disagreeing
that
there
needs
to
be
some
of
that,
but
even
within
the
goals
or
or
just
the
plain
language
set
out
at
present,
there
doesn't
seem
to
be
a
definition
of
goals
or
how
it
feeds
into
division
zero.
So
I
hope
that
there
is
some
discussion
on
really
expanding
the
tools
on
getting
more
infrastructure
and
educational
sort
of
programs
into
the
city
to
address
this
whole
traffic
violence
and
and
all
the
deaths
that
are
happening
here
in
the
city.
Thank
you.
P
Yeah,
I
hope,
there's
enough
time
for
questions
answers
and
not
a
lot
of
hot
air
at
the
beginning.
That
seems
to
be
like
a
lot
of
these
meetings
where
you're
not
able
it's
just
you
know,
the
first
hour
is
just
nothing,
you
know
get
add
zero
value.
I
hope
the
residents
are
going
to
be
able
to
ask
questions
and
the
candidates
are
going
to
be
able
to
speak
about
things,
and
I
hope
that
it's
not
about
nonsense.
P
Right,
like
you
know,
caring
about
things
that
are
maybe
on
an
international
basis.
We
need
to
figure
out,
what's
going
on
here
in
this
city,
our
infrastructure,
our
our
poor
response,
time
for
emergency
medical,
our
roads,
our
parks,
our
our
library
and
and
and
making
these
these
projects.
You
know
a
go
if
they're
going
to
go
and
if
they
are,
they
have
to
be,
you
know
well
planned,
and
it
seems
as
if
they're
not
like.
S
All
right,
blair,
beakman
I'll,
try
to
be
short
and
quick
at
this
time.
I
hope
you
can
have
time
for
the
for
public
comment
on
the
remainder
of
the
consent,
calendar
items
and
about
the
mayor
of
canada.
D
S
Will
in
just
a
moment,
I
promise
thank
you
about
the
mayor
candidate
town
hall.
Thank
you
to
pam
foley
for
describing
how
you
can
participate
as
a
public
in
the
process
and
it's
my
real
hope
in
the
future
that
the
future
of
mayoral
voting
guides
the
voting
guides
for
the
mayoral
process.
It
doesn't
have
to
cost
eight
thousand
dollars
to
have
your
name
and
a
short
summary
of
yourself.
C
D
Yeah
we'll
see
how
that
goes
right.
Okay,
we
would
anyone
like
to
speak
on
any
other
items
on
consent.
This
is
now
a
time
for
public
comment
on
consent.
Generally.
S
All
right,
thank
you.
Blair,
beekman
item
2.9
is
about
you.
You've
developed
a
new
towing
contract
with
unique
towing.
It's
my
hope
that,
with
the
issues
of
the
columbus
park
area,
that
is
there
any
way
to
get
some
sort
of
a
city
sponsorship
of
the
remaining
vehicles
that
are
there
and
that
can
work
to
help
to
tow
the
cars.
You
know
with
the
people
who
are
there
and
work
out
in
arrangements,
so
their
cars
cars
can
be
towed.
S
You
know
at
their
needs,
you
know
to
to
where
they
need
it
to
be
taken.
It's
it's
a
bit
of
a
stretch
to
do
that,
but
it
it
would
provide
a
very
important
community
service
and
really
help
to
facilitate
the
remaining
cars
that
are
there
and
space,
and
it
would
offer
good
feelings
and
goodwill
and
and
and
be
a
part
of
a
good
process
for
the
future
of
the
area.
Good
luck,
if
you
can
work
on
that
issue,
thank
you.
F
B
Oh,
thank
you
so
much
yeah.
So
what
blair
was
talking
about
in
regards
to
the
towing
and
issues
with
cars?
We
have
a
lot
of
issues
with
cars
and
what
we
have
to
do
is
really
like.
We
say:
ban
cars,
we
need
to
ban
cars
and
so
much
of
our
the
problems
we
have
where
we
have
towing.
B
I
mean
one
of
the
things
that
used
to
happen
in
san
francisco
is
that
they
would
tow
cars
that
you
know
were
par
so
that
we
could
truly
clean
our
streets
and
we
don't
clean
our
streets.
Well,
we
know
that
that's
been
a
recurring
problem,
but
they
would
tow
in
san
francisco
if
you
were
parked
when
they,
when
the
cleaning
trucks
would
come.
So
that
is
another
good
reason
to
do
towing.
B
However,
the
whole
issue
of
our
cars
and
the
the
impacts
of
them
have
to
really
be
evaluated
as
we
go
forward
in
our
climate
that
we
are
in
a
climate
crisis
and
we
need
to
stop
burning
fossil
fuels,
keep
it
in
the
ground
and
what
that
means
is
no
driving
and
that
that's
where
we
have
to
create
banning
rules
of
cars.
So
you
know,
I
guess
the
the
tow
trucks
are
are
trying
to
enforce
that.
But
that's
a
lot
of
fossil
fuels
to
enforce
it
as
it
becomes.
You
know
a
you
know.
B
It
just
increases
the
problems,
we're
having
just
like
the
wars
in
in
russia
and
ukraine,
and
all
that
is
just
increasing
our
fossil
fuel
use.
And
so
what
I'm
trying
to
say
is
that
we
need
to
be
banning
and
have
that
be
a
as
we
go
forward
to
ban
them
to
be
parking
on
our
streets
that
that's
giving
the
roads
which
are
there
for
our
transport,
and
somebody
was
complaining.
I
think
it
was
michael
caller
number
one
saying
we
pay
for
these
roads
and
therefore
you
know
we
get
superiority,
that's
not
true.
B
P
Yeah
talk
about
banning
cars,
you
know
banned
tow
companies.
How
predatory
is
this
unique
towing?
I,
like
the
name,
unique
towing,
really?
Is
it
unique?
It's
got
a
city
contract.
Is
anybody
related
to
the
people
on
city
council
who
own
unique?
I
wonder
sometimes
how
these
sweetheart
contracts
come
about
and
how
it
you
know.
These
towing
companies
always
degenerate
into
predatory
because
that's
how
they
make
money.
P
P
As
a
you
know,
the
towing
company,
the
unique
towing
company
for
the
city
of
san
jose
I'd
really
like
to
know-
and
we
all
know
that,
like
I
say,
these
cities
always
degenerate
into
what
towing
cars
to
get
money
to
generate
revenue.
You.
D
P
P
Instead
of
flying
a
confederate
flag,
this
place
flies
a
rainbow
play,
but
which
is
fine,
but
the
the
city.
Politics
are
dirty
and
you
guys
know
it
and
I
like
to
know
the
transparency
of
it.
I
wonder
if
anybody
could
answer,
even
though
I'm
not
allowed
to
ask
the
question
in
my
two
minutes.
Thank
you.
D
All
right,
thank
you.
Let's
we
don't
have
a
motion
yet
do
we.
D
R
G
F
D
I
think
so,
okay
great,
thank
you
all
right,
we're
on
to
3.1,
which
is
the
reporter
city
manager,
and
I
appreciate
our
chief
and
many
of
our
top
police
officials
have
been
waiting
patiently.
So
I
think
we
have
an
announcement.
Yes,.
N
We
do
I'm
very
honored
and
proud
to
say
we
have
a
hero
in
our
audience
today
and
that
is
our
own
san,
jose
police
officer,
pedro
garcia.
So
can
you
acknowledge
yourself
pedro
just
end
up.
N
Thank
you,
and
by
the
way
I
understand
that
your
sister
is
here,
elizabeth
who's,
also
on
the
police
department,
and
so
clearly,
heroes
must
run
in
the
garcia
family.
So,
on
september,
27,
2021
officer
pedro
garcia,
performed
a
courageous,
life-saving
act
when
he
pulled
a
driver
from
a
burning
car
following
a
collision
on
highway
101..
N
N
Officer
garcia
was
outside
of
his
district
on
that
sunday
morning,
but
he
immediately
responded
when
notified
as
he
was
nearby.
He
was
the
first
responder
on
the
scene
and
upon
arrival
he
saw
that
a
person
was
inside
the
burning
vehicle.
He
did
not
hesitate
and
quickly
ran
towards
the
vehicle.
He
helped
the
victim
who
was
in
and
out
of
consciousness
by
pulling
him
out
of
the
vehicle
into
safety.
N
Due
to
officer
garcia's
bravery
and
quick
action.
The
man's
life
was
saved
officer,
pedro
garcia
was
born
and
raised
in
east
san
jose
growing
up.
He
knew
that
he
wanted
a
career
when
he'd
give
back
to
his
community
law
enforcement
was
the
path
he
chose
to
fulfill
that
goal
and
we're
so
grateful
that
he
did.
He
has
now
been
with
the
city
of
san
jose
police
department
for
one
year,
a
lot
of
years
to
go
to
go
so
we're
super
excited
by
that.
N
C
Officer
garcia,
I'd
like
to
well
thank
you,
city
manager,
mayor
and
council
for
recognizing
officer
garcia
here
today
and
as
mentioned
your.
P
Your
heroic
acts
that.
D
D
C
At
the
san
jose
police
department
and
that
those
were
also
shown
during
the
tragic
incident
at
the
vta
event
last
year
also,
you
are
from
san
jose,
as
city
manager
had
mentioned.
C
So

inspiration
not
only
to
the
community,
but
also
your
your
sister
here
today,
and
I
thank
you
for
your
dedication,
commitment
to
the
department
and
the
community
and
again
thank
you

everything
you
do
and
the
hard
work
that
you
continue
to
do
here
at
the
police
department.
Thank
you
again,
pedro.
D
All
right
on
to
item
3.3,
which
is
the
city
roadmap
second
quarter
update.
We
have
a
presentation,
welcome,
dylan
and
rosalind
ray
and
angel
yep.
K
K
The
refresher
on
the
city
roadmap;
second,
the
main
course:
a
status
report
on
the
objectives
and
key
results
for
five
enterprise
priorities,
those
being
community
and
economic
recovery,
emergency
management,
preparedness,
ending
homelessness,
safe,
vibrant
and
inclusive
neighborhoods
and
public
life,
and,
last
but
not
least,
powered
by
people
and
then
we'll
briefly
touch
on
current
and
next
steps.
K
In
march
of
2021,
the
city
council
approved
this
the
fiscal
year
2122
city
road
map.
The
purpose
of
the
road
map
is
to
focus
the
city
on
our
most
vital
change
initiatives
which
are
distinct
from
core
city
services.
The
roadmap
is
organized
around
eight
enterprise
priorities
on
the
far
left,
which
are
associated
with
41
initiatives
on
the
right.
K
K
K
You
will
note
that
we
have
five
of
the
total
eight
enterprise
priorities
for
the
city
roadmap
now
reporting
to
council,
and
we
have
approximately
150
actual
and
planned
key
results
being
managed
so
far,
so
in
order
to
make
effective
use
of
everyone's
time,
the
executive
sponsors
up
here
with
me
for
each
enter
priorities
we'll
just
briefly
share
an
overview.
We'll
address
the
council
members
specific
questions
on
key
results
and
comments
about
those
key
results
during
the
council
question
and
answer
period.
E
Good
afternoon,
mayor
city,
council,
members
of
the
public
rob
lloyd,
deputy
city
manager
here
to
present
the
community
and
economic
recovery
data
and
budget
committee
support
enterprise
priority
here
with
rosalind
huey,
also
deputy
city
manager.
So
this
priority
is
about
lifting
small
businesses
and
families
up
through
leading
an
equitable
recovery.
E
E
This
included
deploying
26
million
dollars
of
emergency
rental
assistance
round
two
local
funds
to
2000
households,
enrolling
185
resilience,
core
clients
into
learning,
environmental
and
small
business
pathways
and
launching
a
digital
equity
awareness
campaign.
We
were
challenged
to
order.
The
6160
devices
through
the
emergency
connectivity
fund,
however,
please
to
report
that
the
payments
have
been
received
in
the
current
quarter.
Three
and
the
goal
is
tracked
for
completion.
E
E
We
have
opening
registration
and
conduct
and
conduct
outreach
for
upcoming
child
care
programming
for
the
summer
22
and
academic
year,
2022-2023
in
the
center
you'll
notice,
conduct
resilience
core
training
and
work
experience,
opportunities
for
150
individuals
in
high
wage,
high
growth
careers
and
on
the
right
side,
there's
two
items
of
note,
which
is
create
a
tenant
protections
and
education
strategy
and
update
council
on
that
work,
as
well
as
establish
recovery
committees,
structure
and
membership
within
the
recovery
task
force,
and
so
now,
with
that,
turning
it
over
to
ray
raritan
for
the
emergency
management
and
preparedness
enterprise.
C
C
The
first
is
the
vaccination
task
force
and
then
second,
is
the
soft
story.
Building
earthquake
retrofit
policy
and
program
within
this
work
we
find
ourselves
doing
response
and
recovery
in
parallel.
Among
the
many
unknowns
of
kova
19
pandemic
has
thrown
our
way
in
the
form
of
the
new
variants,
especially
the
omicron
variant.
C
I
will
note
that
in
the
time
since
the
stat
the
status
was
accomplished
in
december,
some
of
these
yellows
and
reds
have
turned
green.
In
quarter
two,
we
had
five
green
key
results
or
56
percent
completion,
three
yellow
key
results
for
33
and
one
red
result
or
eleven
percent.
C
We
definitely
want
to
highlight
the
effort
of
our
21
vaccination
events
that
were
coordinated
with
the
county.
In
our
priority
neighborhoods,
we
were
challenged
to
coordinate
sufficient
number
of
provider
staff
because
of
the
high
surge
in
the
need
and
the
vaccination
due
to
omicron.
So
we
were
only
able
to
accomplish
one
out
of
three
events
in
october.
During
quarter
two,
however,
we
did
catch
up
in
january
with
eight
events,
including
two
for
employees.
C
In
quarter
three,
given
the
need
to
continue
our
response
efforts,
we
worked
on
towards
conducting
more
events
for
the
employees,
with
coordinating
with
the
county
for
vaccinations
because
of
this
work,
and
given
the
declining
case
rates,
we
ramped
down
the
emergency
operations
center
efforts
through
the
end
of
february
through
the
during
the
omnicharge
surge,
and
so
through
this
quarter,
we
are
currently
working
towards
these
six
planned
key
results.
F
F
We
were
challenged
in
completing
the
analysis
of
potential
city-owned
properties
for
rv
safe
parking
sites,
so
we
have
carried
this
analysis
into
the
current
florida
to
identify
suitable
locations.
This
work
is
part
of
the
quick
field.
Interim
housing,
work
plan
and
staff
will
be
providing
an
update
on
this
effort
to
the
community
and
economic
development
committee
later
this
month
with
final
recommendations
to
the
city
council
for
its
consideration
in
june.
F
In
quarter
three,
you
will
notice
the
updated
structure,
with
greater
focus
on
homelessness
with
the
north
san
jose
strategy
moved
to
the
building
the
san
jose
of
tomorrow
with
a
downtown
for
everyone
enterprise
priority.
This
greater
focus
represents
our
commitment
and
responsiveness
to
the
needs
of
the
community
and
direction
from
our
city
council.
In
quarter
three,
we
are
working
towards
the
eight
planned
key
results
shown
on
this
slide
and
now
I'll
turn
the
presentation
over
to
anger,
rios
for
the
safe,
vibrant,
inclusive,
neighborhoods
and
public
life
enterprise,
priority
company.
C
C
We
were
challenged
to
make
traffic
safety
improvements
at
the
nine
locations
having
completed
four
out
of
the
nine
locations
due
to
the
due
to
the
rainy
weather
conditions
in
december.
However,
we
continue
to
work
on
these
traffic
safety
improvements
and
will
exceed
these
goals
in
quarter.
Three,
given
the
more
favorable
weather
conditions.
C
Work
towards
greater
traffic
safety,
increased
access
to
child
care
and
311
services,
more
frequent
encampment
trash
service
and
continued
rollout
of
our
work
in
racial
equity.
This
quarter,
we
are
working
towards
these
17
planned
key
results.
Now
I'll
turn
it
over
to
lee
wilcox
for
powered
by
people.
E
Thank
you
angel
lee,
wilcox
assistant
city
manager,
good
afternoon,
mayor
councils
and
members
of
the
public.
The
initiatives
and
the
powered
by
people
priority
represent
several
of
the
ways
that
the
city
is
currently
supporting,
investing
in
our
talented
workforce.
We
continue
to
be
challenged
in
the
current
labor
market
and
hiring
environment.
However,
so
our
team
is
pursuing
several
connected
strategies
to
reinforce
hiring
retention
efforts
and
make
sure
that
our
employees
are
able
to
do
their
jobs
effectively
through
the
drive
to
digital
supported
through
wellness
and
growth
opportunities
and
value
through
workforce
experience
and
retention.
E
In
addition
to
these
strategies,
we
continue
to
set
incredibly
high
hiring
goals
to
continue
to
add
to
our
talented
workforce
and
a
lot
of
these
have
been
reported
to
you
monthly
through
our
director
of
employee
relations
and
h.r
jennifer
shembry
through
emails
in
quarter
two
or
q.
Two
sixty
percent
of
our
initiatives
met
our
goal,
while
twenty
20
were
greater
than
65
percent
are
over
and
20
less
than
60.,
and
since
the
q2,
these
have
continued
to
improve
of
the
goals
that
were
met.
E
However,
of
the
items
that
we
didn't
meet,
we
continue
to
be
challenged
with
filling
the
45
positions
allocated
in
the
budget
as
part
of
the
recovery
staffing
plan
only
hiring
28
of
the
45.
We
continue
to
be
challenged
by
the
local
labor
market,
as
well
as
difficulty
hiring
for
temporary
positions
and
difficult
to
difficulty
hiring
over
the
winter
holiday.
E
However,
as
I
expressed,
we
continue
to
focus
in
hiring
and
retention
as
part
of
our
q3
results
and
above
which
I'll
go
over
now
in
q3
or
right.
Now
we
are
expanding
our
efforts
to
hire
and
retain
our
talented
workforce,
including
continued
leader
learning
and
development
opportunities,
deploying
additional
process,
automation,
workflows
and
kicking
off
a
workforce
retention
pilot
program,
implementing
changes
to
minimal
qualifications
and
other
employee
focused
results
in
total.
We're
working
on
towards
15
plan.
E
These
scat
staffing
constraints,
as
well
as
a
the
continued
response
that
we
saw
last
year
on
the
existing
roadmap,
will
result
in
some
initiative
continuing
into
the
next
fiscal
year
or
some
initiatives
being
de-prioritized
by
council,
as
we
propose
a
right-sized
road
map
that
works
to
balances
the
workload
of
our
available
staff
and
resources.
As
we
move
forward.
E
Obviously,
in
the
midst
of
a
pandemic,
trying
to
focus
the
organization
with
community
needs
is
an
important
task,
and
I
also
want
to
express
appreciation
in
the
countless
number
of
city
staff
behind
this
roadmap,
achieving
those
150
key
results,
including
the
leadership
of
those
listed
on
this
slide,
and
what
they've
brought
to
the
table,
including
their
creativity,
hard
work
and
collaboration
across
the
city.
With
that
I'll
hand,
it
back
to
dylan
beckel.
K
Thanks
lee,
so
the
next
steps
you
see
here
on
this
slide
are
largely
focused
on
the
creation
of
the
2223
city
road
map.
Knowing
that
we've
learned
a
lot
over
the
last
past
year
in
executing
the
roadmap
and,
as
lee
said,
many
items
on
the
roadmap
should
continue,
but
some
may
not,
as
the
city
faces
significant
staffing
challenges
and
limited
flexibility
on
our
budget.
K
So
the
next
steps
in
developing
a
2223
roadmap
are
one
to
publish
the
info
memo
on
the
process
we'll
be
following
for
the
2223
roadmap
and
that
was
issued
and
published
last
friday
on
march
4th.
The
second
is
to
release
the
mayor's
march
budget
message,
which
was
done
yesterday
evening.
K
The
third
is
to
refine
a
draft
administration
proposed
2223
city,
road
map
in
advance
of
the
council
budget
study
sessions
and
four
to
conduct
those
budget
study
sessions,
with
a
specific
focus
on
a
session
on
a
council
roadmap
prioritization,
and
that's
where
council
will
be
able
to
identify
potential
swaps
of
initiatives,
that
is
to
say,
remove
one
initiative
and
replace
it
for
another.
A
similar
sized
priority
initiative
and
we'll
further
evaluate
that
by
the
administration.
K
K
If
you
will-
and
we
kicked
that
pilot
off
last
week-
they're
helping
us
do
that
on
a
promotional
basis
and
we'll
be
bringing
that
to
you
in
q4.
So
we
can
start
to
roll
things
up
to
more
of
a
dashboard
outcome
measurement
view.
But
if
we
didn't
get
things
moving,
we
wouldn't
have
the
outcomes
to
measure,
so
that
was
the
first
priority.
K
D
All
the
underlying
work,
of
course,
is
doing
all
this,
but
on
top
of
that,
organizing
it
and
putting
in
okrs
and
managing
effectively
those
ak
okay,
ours,
it's
a
lot
of
work
with
a
lot
of
people
involved.
So
thank
you
all
all
right,
let's
go
to
the
public
and
then
we'll
come
back
council.
S
All
right,
thank
you,
blair,
beekman
here,
thanks
for
letting
me
go
first,
I
guess
you
know.
I've
spent
the
past
year
kind
of
in
a
role
of
chicken
little,
it's
kind
of
saying
you
know
the
sky
is
falling.
We
got
to
be
wary
and
prepared
for
2023..
S
S
You
know,
as
in
the
first
six
months
of
the
biden
administration,
they
invited
policies
that
san
jose
city
picked
up
on.
You
know
to
really
start
concentrating
on
the
future
of
natural
disaster
preparedness
practices
in
the
past
year,
and
it's
been,
I
think,
a
a
wonderful,
great
idea.
It
was
just
it's
really
smart.
It
helps
connect
the
community
it
it.
It
brings
awareness
whether
there
is
going
to
be
situations
or
not
in
2023.
S
It
gets
us
prepared
and
that's
an
awesome
step
to
do.
Thank
you
for
that
immensely.
It's
unique
among
bay
area
cities.
I
think
with
that
all
said.
You
know,
and
I've
been
saying
it
the
past
few
weeks
now
what
exactly?
How
are
we
going
to
start
talking
about
2023,
because
I
think
we
all
have
some
questions
what
to
expect
in
the
next
year?
How
you
know,
I
think,
it's
through
the
memo
process
and
how
we
talk
about
our
projects.
S
Can
we
be
learn
to
be
honest
about
that
and
if
we
write
our
memos
and
we
offer
our
projects
in
a
certain
way,
that
will
create
clear
examples
what
we
can
expect
in
the
next
few
years?
I
hope
you
don't
go
all
over
the
place
with
things
and
have
a
really
direct
purpose,
and
that
can
help
make
and
facilitate
an
easier
conversation
for
all
of
us
and
then
what
to
expect
in
the
next
year
and
with
that,
that's
community
safety.
That's
public
safety,
that's
innovation!
That's
the
good
stuff!
C
C
L
S
Also
helping
to
create
a
level
playing
field
for
for
fair
law,
abiding
construction,
employers.
S
L
S
C
C
There
are
two
tiers
in
the
construction
industry,
those
that
provide
family,
sustaining
wages
and
training
and
those
that
are
bad
actors
who
commit
wage
theft
and
hurt
the
community.
I
personally
have
been
on
both
sides
of
the
industry.
As
a
non-union
plumber,
I
was
overworked,
underpaid
under
appreciated
and
actually
almost
died
twice
on
the
job
because
of
a
non-existent
safety
program
and
a
severe
lack
of
training.
C
The
only
way
I
was
able
to
make
ends
meet
was
to
work
as
many
side
jobs,
as
I
could
often
60
hours
plus
a
week.
It
was.
It
was
a
rough
existence
today,
thanks
to
my
union
apprenticeship,
I'm
a
proud,
homeowner
and
provider
to
my
family
job
site
safety
has
become
a
shared
passion
with
the
union
and
my
future
finally
feels
bright
and
stable.
I
urge
the
city
to
help
protect
and
support
that
stability.
G
G
G
G
G
This
is
not
a
complicated
matter.
This
is
stopping
theft.
San
jose
needs
an
ordinance.
Please
make
it
a
priority
and
has
staff
bring
forward
an
ordinance
that
addresses
this
theft,
and
that
has
the
wherewithal
that
will
protect
working
families
while
not
letting
the
offenders
off
with
just
a
slap
on
the
wrist.
Thank
you
very
much.
F
G
Good
afternoon
mayor
council
members,
my
name
is
edunos
carsega,
I'm
a
50-year
resident
of
san
jose
with
nearly
35
years
in
the
construction
industry
and
I'm
a
representative
of
plumbers
and
steam
fitters
with
over
3000
members.
G
The
construction
industry
is
a
two-tier
industry,
with
some
employers
providing
families
supporting
wages,
training
and
careers,
while
other
low
road
contractors
use
shady
and
illegal
tactics
like
wage
step
to
push
wages
down.
Construction
is
rampant,
with
wage
theft
with
latino
and
asian
immigrants
most
likely
to
be
affected,
and
they
often
face
threats
of
retaliation.
When
they
speak
out,
we
let
bad
actors
get
away
with
waitstaff,
not
only
harm
to
workers,
but
also
harm
small
businesses
and
immigrant
entrepreneurs
who
play
by
the
rules
and
treat
their
workers
fairly.
G
G
Today's
road
roadmap
discussion
doesn't
include
it
at
all.
Instead,
it's
been
placed
in
the
backlog
where
it
has
no
timeline
and
it
isn't
even
isn't
even
up
for
the
discussion
all
while
waitstiff
continues
robbing
workers.
These
are
construction
workers
that
kept
working
through
covet
in
person
and
from
the
start
they
never
missed
a
beat
putting
themselves
and
their
families
at
risk,
but
still
with
no
protection
against
having
their
wages
stolen
by
these
bad
actors.
G
As
san
jose
plans
for
recovery,
let's
not
leave
working
people
out
of
the
recovery.
I
need
you
to
bring
back
the
responsible
construction
ordinance
out
of
the
backlog
and
onto
the
front
burner
as
sunnyvale
milpitas
and
sunnyvale
peters
have
already
passed.
These
ordinances
and
mountain
view
is
working
on
one.
Unfortunately,
san
jose
did
not
lead
on
this
matter,
but
we
can
do
do
the
right
thing
and
pass
one
here
today.
Thank
you.
Q
L
L
C
C
C
With
outstanding
judgments,
this
item
would
protect
law-abiding
business,
community
and
construction
employees
alike.
This
is
good
for
our
workers,
it's
good
for
businesses,
residents
and
taxpayers,
and
the
city
government
as
well,
representing
the
entire
organized
construction
workforce.
I
urge
you
to
take
this
ordinance
and
the
economic
prospects
of
working
families
that
rely
on
construction
out
of
the
dust
bin
and
bring
it
back
ready
for
approval.
Thank
you.
T
Thank
you
and
good
afternoon,
mayor
and
council
members,
louise
auerhan
from
working
partnerships,
and
I
want
to
speak
about
this
proposed
city
roadmap
process,
formerly
the
priority
setting
process
and
how
and
why
that
process
is
sweeping
established
priorities,
including
wage
set
and
responsible
construction
ordinance
under
the
rug.
T
We
need
to
address
our
communities
needs
now,
and
we
know
that
one
of
those
urgent
needs
is
preventing
wage
theft
and
making
sure
that
our
essential
construction
workers
who
worked
in
person
they
keep
building
this
city
throughout
the
pandemic
and
are
still
doing
that
now
that
they're
product
protected
and
can
earn
a
fair
day's
wage.
So
I
urge
you
to
move
forward.
T
City,
council
and
mayor
as
I
give
these
comments,
I'm
looking
at
a
photograph
there's
mayor,
sam
ricardo,
there's,
a
council
member
sergio
jimenez,
there's
the
kamagi
professor
of
engineering
at
stanford,
there's
aunt,
dr
anthony
kinslow,
a
big
fan
of
councilmember
chappie,
who
anthony
talked
about
chappie
all
the
time
at
the
engineering,
school
and
yeah,
there's
bruce
silvertop,
and
when
I
and
this
this
picture
is
published
in
the
stanford
engineering
news
and
it's
celebrating
the
the
success
of
the
data
analysis
done
by
stanford
engineering
in
support
city
of
san
jose,
showing
the
the
scope
of
wage
theft.
T
There
is
this
terrible
data
set
that
the
state
of
california
maintains
it's
got
gaps
in
it
missing
information.
The
federal
government
has
their
data
set.
But,
of
course
there's
you
know
the
city
the
the
state
data
set
is
you
know
the
state
laws
are
more
powerful
than
the
federal.
So,
of
course,
the
federal
data
sets
not
that
good
and
the
date
on
this
article
is
2019..
T
We're
celebrating
we've
got
an
award.
The
kamagi
professor
of
engineering
is
holding
that
award
it's
on
the
wall
at
stanford
in
the
center
for
integrated
facilities
engineering.
T
So
I
want
to,
I
want
to
just
bring
back
that
memory,
that
collaboration,
and
you
know
that
understanding
that
the
city
of
san
jose
has
10
times
as
much
wage
theft
in
the
construction
industry
as
any
other
jurisdiction
in
the
area.
Please
be
the
leaders
that
that
I
know
and
and
are
in
this
photograph
with
the
kamagi
professor
and
you
know,
bring
this
forward.
Thank
you.
C
Good
afternoon
I'm
will
smith
a
business
representative
for
ibw
local
332.
We
represent
over
3
700
members
in
the
county,
many
that
live
right
here
in
san
jose,
I'm
speaking
in
favor
of
the
responsible
construction
ordinance.
I
want
to
speak
about
a
personal,
personal
matter
with
wage
theft.
I
have
a
nephew
that
was
working
for
an
open,
non-union
electrical
shop
and
he
had
the
opportunity
to
get
paid
cash,
and
so
three
days
out
of
the
week
he
was
on
payroll
the
other
two
days.
They
paid
him
cash.
C
I
told
him
not
to
do
that,
but
he
did
it
anyways
and
he's
seen
the
benefits
of
of
getting
the
cash
rewards.
But
what
he
didn't
realize
is
he
didn't
get
the
benefits
of
a
full-time
worker.
He
didn't
get
any
health
benefits,
health
and
welfare
or
any
type
of
pension
or
anything
of
that
nature.
So
that's
where
he
he
got
duped
and
also
the
company
was
getting
away
with
tax
evasion
because
obviously
they
weren't
paying
taxes
on
the
two
days
he
was
getting
paid
under
the
table
getting
paid
cash.
C
You,
city,
officials,
are
are
elected
to
represent
the
people
of
san
jose
the
workers
of
san
jose
and
there's
workers
that
are
being
misrepresented
and
not
being
paid
properly,
and
I
expect
that
you
guys
will
support
this
and
prioritize
it.
So
therefore
those
people
will
be
represented.
Thank
you.
P
These
are
the
kind
of
issues
that
the
mayor
has
the
mayor.
Candidates
have
to
talk
about.
These
are
real
bread
and
butter
issues.
These
aren't
flag,
raising
issues
or
these
other
soft.
What
I
call
fluff
issues
these
are
real
issues
and
if
these
are
going
on
with
city
contracts,
what
does
that
tell
you
about
the
city
council
and
the
city
management
they're?
Not
following
their
rules?
Can
you
imagine
when
you
don't
follow
their
rules?
P
Man,
all
of
a
sudden,
there's
fines
fees,
everything
up,
but
hey
they're,
the
people
they
hire
they
get
to
do
whatever
they
want.
Isn't
that
nice
that
you
guys
get
to
do
whatever
you
want,
but
a
regular
citizen
steps
out
of
line
and
man,
you
guys,
are
there
you're
on
them
just
like
what
raul
perales
says
with
fines
that
hurt?
P
But
where
is
that
for
your
contractors?
Matter
of
fact,
if
you
guys
are
watching,
if
you
guys
are
watching
the
store
there,
you
guys
are
liable.
If
you
ask
me
for
for
these,
for
these
type
of
wage
thefts
and
everything
else,
I
don't
think
I
mean
all
these
people
on
city
council.
You
guys
make
150
000
a
year
what
you
know
working
a
couple
days
a
week
at
some
meetings,
the
people
who
do
real
construction
work,
people,
that's
real
physical,
skilled
labor.
P
What
do
you
guys
do?
That's
worth
a
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
dollars.
I
bet
not
one
of
you
could
swing
a
hammer
for
more
than
five
minutes,
probably
five
seconds,
but
think
about
that
for
a
minute.
These
people
call
in
with
wage
theft,
and
it's
going
to
end
up
costing
the
city
so
he's
going
to
get
sued.
Taxpayers
have
to
pay
more.
But
what
do
you
guys
care?
It's,
not
your
money!
That's
why
you
guys
do
whatever
you
want,
because
it's
not
your
money.
It's
not
your
life
either.
C
We
represent
close
to
7
000
members
throughout
the
santa
clara
county,
a
lot
of
which
work
in
san
jose
wage
live
in
the
construction
industry
is
rampant
and
latino
immigrants
are
specific,
especially
likely
to
be
affected
and
often
face
threats
of
retaliation.
If
they
speak
out,
we
would
be
here
all
night
if
I
were
to
list
all
the
bad
actors
and
the
wage
thefts
that
happens
within
our
area.
However,
when
unscrupulous
corporations
steal
from
their
workers,
it
affects
not
just
the
workers
themselves,
but
their
families
and
our
entire
community.
C
Millions
of
dollars
are
being
stolen
from
our
san
jose
families,
who
have
members
working
in
construction,
allowing
bad
actors
to
get
away
with
wage
that
also
harms
the
many
small
businesses
and
immigrant
entrepreneurs
who
are
trying
to
play
by
the
rules
and
treat
their
workers
fairly,
but
can't
compete
with
those
who
cheat
at
san
jose
plans
for
recovery.
We
can't
let
working
people
get
left
out
of
that
recovery.
I
urge
you
to
bring
back
the
responsible
construction
ordinance
by
enacting
a
responsible
construction
ordinance
that
would
require
disclosure
and
payment
of
unpaid
wage
theft.
C
F
D
E
Thank
you
mayor.
Yes,
it
was
originally
prioritized.
However,
last
year
when
the
mayor
and
council
worked
through
the
road
map,
it
was
de-prioritized
and
put
on
the
backlog
with
40
other
initiatives,
and
so
the
way
that
ranking
happened.
It
is
number
two
on
the
backlog.
E
D
E
That
is
true
and
we
did
make
a
commitment
during
the
the
roadmap
process
in
the
spring
that,
as
we
were,
able
to
to
check
off
initiatives
on
the
roadmap,
we
would
turn
a
work
and
attention
two
items
on
the
backlog,
but
as
we've
expressed
in
other
communications
to
the
mayor
and
council
that
was
pre-delta
and
pre-omicron.
So
with
the
continued
response,
as
you
saw
today,
we're
we're
behind
on
some
of
the
actual
initiatives
on
the
roadmap
itself.
Because
of
that
capacity.
F
F
The
two
yellow
items
are
plan,
waterways,
encampment
setback
approach
and
then
the
rv
parking
and
rosalind.
I
understand
rv
parking
is
coming
to
ced
this
month.
What
is
the
status
of
the
waterways
encampment
setback
approach?
Yeah.
Thank
you,
council
members,
so
staff
is
currently
working
on.
That
approach
is
just
a
little
bit
behind.
F
We
will
carry
that
over
into
quarter
three,
so
we're
working
on
that
and
we'll
be
able
to
provide
an
update
to
the
city
council
in
the
next
roadmap
reporting.
So
in
when
are
you
doing?
I
guess
it's
at
the
end
of
the
next
thir
at
the
third
quarter
so
after
june.
Is
that
right?
No,
never.
E
D
I'll
go
to
the
zoom
screen.
Well,
councilmember
awareness.
A
Thank
you
mayor.
I
was
also
going
to
ask
about
the
same
item
that
you
just
asked
about
and
why
it
was
in
the
backlog
list.
A
Now
I
understand
that
there
is
two
options
here:
either
you
we
leave
it
in
the
list,
because
it's
naturally
going
to
come
up
as
number
one
or
we
integrate
that
into
the
budget.
Is
that
something
that
a
council
member
has
to
do
or
is
that
something
that
the
city
manager
can
do.
K
K
For
moving
from
a
backlog
to
consideration
active
on
the
roadmap
right,
there's
going
to
be
two
processes,
one
is
the
administration
is
going
to
develop
a
draft
to
bring
to
the
council
and
we'll
be
evaluating
capacity
and
priority.
K
As
we
talked
about
to
develop
that
kind
of
refined
draft
roadmap,
then
in
I
think
it's
the
monday
budget
session.
According
to
jim,
shannon,
that's
going
to
be
the
city
roadmap
prioritization
budget
session.
That's
where,
if
something
that
you
wanted
to
see
either
a
new
policy
or
something
from
the
backlog,
the
administration
is
not
proposing
it.
That's
where
you
can
bring
it
in
from
the
backlog.
We'll
have
published
that
in
advance,
and
then
you
can
bring
that
in
for
a
discussion
as
to
consideration
of.
Can
we
swap
something
out
and
swap
something
in.
A
Okay,
so
that
that
seems
to
me
if
we've
already
gone
through
this
process
in
2019-
and
it
already
made
the
list-
why-
I
guess
I'm
not
understanding,
I
understand
what
you
just
said.
It
just
still
doesn't
make
sense
to
me
that
we
continue
to
prioritize
these
items,
vote
on
them
and
then
they
go
into
backlog,
and
so
this
question
is
for
you
jennifer,
since
this
is
something
that
that
can
be
integrated
into
the
budget
process.
I
don't
know
that
wage
theft
should
be
on
the
table
anymore.
A
It
has
been
on
the
table
for
far
too
long.
We
it
just
we
we've
heard
today
in
terms
of
some
of
the
repercussions
and
the
impacts
it
can
have
in
our
on
our
residents.
F
N
With
the
roadmap,
obviously
we're
you
know:
we've
we've
we've
pivoted
to
a
roadmap
concept
from
just
doing
the
ordinances
and
priority
studying
that
we
used
to
do
a
couple
of
years
ago.
So
this
is
our
first
full
roadmap
that
we're
doing
here
things
on
the
road
map
don't
always
necessarily
and
when
used,
we
do
ordinance.
Work
didn't
necessarily
always
need
new
resources.
So
it's
not
like
all
budgeted
items.
Go
on
the
road
map.
D
N
N
Certainly
that
you
know
the
council,
if
we
want
to
put
you
know,
additional
resources
towards
a
an
activity
that
the
council
wants
to
do,
that
that
can
accelerate
something
rather
than
using
just
our
baseline.
You
know
base
resources
and
we
can
certainly
look
to
do
that
as
part
of
the
budget
process
for
sure.
N
But
I
understand
this
is
a
priority
for
the
council
and
but
we
it's
all
the
competing
priorities
and
the
amount
of
staff
time
especially
coming
out,
especially
during
the
pandemic,
hopefully
as
we're
moving
into
the
recovery,
we'll
have
more
capacity,
but
we
do
realize
this
last
road
map.
We
had
too
many
things
on
it
and
so
we're
trying
to
right-size.
N
In
a
very
efficient
and
timely
manner,
but
it's
that
balancing
act
so
certainly
understand
the
council's
interest.
In
this
item
it's
been
on
the
it
has
been
on
the
the
backlog
or
in
the
hopper
for
quite
a
long
time.
So
we
can
certainly
take
a
look
at
it
as
we
as
we
as
we're
developing.
A
I
I
appreciate
that
in
endless
I'm
not,
I
know
we
have
a
priority
setting
or
a
road
map
process
that
we're
going
to
go
through
soon.
A
I
just
find
myself,
you
know
asking
the
same
question.
It
seems
like
every
year
during
whether
it's
a
priority
setting
or
roadmap
process.
It's
the
same.
A
It's
the
same
thing
and
you
just
mentioned
the
recovery
as
we're
going
through
recovery.
I
think
this
is
if
any
time
was
a
sensitive
time.
This
is
a
sensitive
time.
We
have
workforce
issues
and
recruitment
and
retention
and-
and
it
might
be,
if
we
look
at
the
real
estate
market,
you
know
it's
a
buyer's
market
or
seller's
market.
It's
the
workers
market
really
right.
A
We
could
see
it
that
way,
but
it
isn't
for
everyone,
especially
those
who
may
not
have
all
the
documentation
that
they
need
in
order
to
be
have
a
you
know,
a
legitimate
job
or
be
recognized
legitimately,
and
so
I
think
that's
when
it's
really
important
for
us
to
protect
that
workforce,
that
invisible
workforce
that
we
all
rely
on,
and
so
I'm
not
going
to
go
on
more
about
that.
I
I
know
that
you
hear
me
on
this
and
and
and
I'd
love
to
to
also
have
our
colleagues
just
let's
just
get
through
this.
A
I'm
gonna
move
on
to
draft
qr
plan.
Key
results,
figure,
seven
attachment
g
on
p,
page
thirteen,
there's
a
mouthful.
A
I
I
have
a
a
kid's
care,
fair
in
district
8
that
I'm
having
and
it's
for
children
over
the
age
of
five
for
it's
in
a
vaccination
event,
and
I
think
this
is
one
of
the
ways
you
know.
We've.
We've
said
this
kind
of
messaging
or
I've
said
this
kind
of
messaging
before
where
we,
I
think
it's
important
for
us
to
connect
administration
connect
with
council.
A
As
we're
doing
some
of
these
events
already,
we
we
might
be
able
to
just
join
forces
and
and
not
have
to
have
to
reinvent
the
wheel
here.
So
I
think
there's
some
some
opportunity
for
us
to
an
opportunity
for
us
to
collaborate.
D
Apologies,
I'm
sorry.
I
was
actually
distracted
on
the
conversation
we're
having
about
this
very
issue,
I'm
just
to
understand,
given
I'm
just
making
the
assumption
here
without
knowing
that
state
law
already
provides
protections
against
wage
theft
in
a
way
that
we
would
probably
want
with
any
state
or
with
any
city
ordinance.
D
If,
if
we
assume
that's
true,
and
if
it's
not,
let
me
know,
would
it
be
a
simpler
step
for
us
just
to
go
to
the
state
and
say
hey:
can
we
hire
a
couple
more
inspectors
and
deputize
them
to
go
enforce
the
state
code
rather
than
coming
up
with
our
own
law
and
trying
to
figure
out
how
to
reconcile
that
with
the
state
and
on
and
on
and
on.
E
Council,
member
lucardo-
actually
that
was
one
thing
that
we
had
discussed
with
the
county
in
the
state
in
2019
as
this
is
moving
forward.
I
want
to
ask
matt
kano
to
jump
on
and
and
try
and
refresh
that
conversation
and
help
provide
some
insight
who's
a
little
bit
closer
to
this
than
I
am.
L
Would
you
mind
repeating
the
question
I
got
an
urgent
call.
D
L
C
Question
for
you
on
that
today,
unfortunately,
okay,
the
responsible
contractor.
R
Ordinance
in
our
in
our
february
2020
memo,
we
had
briefly
addressed
it.
It
was
from
a
from
a
legal
standpoint.
There
was
a
lot
of
challenges
that
that
were
raised
and
questions
that
were
raised
and
those
were
items
that
we're
going
to
look
at
tackling
pre-pandemic,
but
I
unfortunately
I
can
follow
up
and
be
better
prepared
to
answer
that
question
next
time.
As.
D
It's
not
a
few
questions,
one
on
child
care,
because
I
think
we
all
appreciate
this
is
a
huge
barrier
for
a
lot
of
families
and
we
can
do
more,
probably
just
by
getting
more
people
back
to
work,
given
particularly
the
low
unemployment
rate
we
got
and
and
just
about
anything
else,
that
to
really
stimulate
economic
well-being
for
a
lot
of
struggling
families
and-
and
I
saw
the
numbers
it
looks
like
we're-
I
can't
remember
it's
a
little
under
300
kids
that
we've
now
gotten
into
the
program,
I'm
just
trying
to
understand,
and
if
you
guys
don't
have
this
I'm
happy
to
take
this
offline.
D
Do
we
have
existing
capacity
or
are
we
tapped
out
on
capacity
for
child
care
services
and
we
need
to
go,
find
more
money
for
more
providers.
C
Mayor
I'll
I'll
take
this
one
here,
although
this
work
is
loaded
under
community
and
economic
recovery,
what
we've
been
doing
is
really
folding.
This
work
under
our
recent
work
around
children
and
youth
services
as
we're
developing
a
master
plan
to
do
this
work,
and
so
what
we're
doing
now
is
we're
we're,
starting
with
maxing
out
our
existing
space
and
and
starting
with
the
city
looking
at
non-profit
organizations.
C
Looking
at
schools
now
and
the
way
we
see
this
unfolding
is
really
tapping
into
our
other
stakeholder
partners
to
leverage
and
connect
resources
to
space,
so
that
way,
we're
not
having
to
kind
of
spend
money
on
on
on
facilities
and
then
the
additional
child
care
slots.
We've
convened
the
county
house
of
education,
the
county,
their
test
system,
community
based
organizations
that
are
in
this
work
and
and
we're
gonna
be
folding
those
additional
recommendations
into
our
recommendations
that
you'll
see
shortly
through
children
and
youth
services,
master
plan.
C
D
And
we
we
are
going
beyond
simply
serving
families
of
city
employees.
Is
that
right?
Oh
absolutely,
yeah,
okay,
yeah,
because
I
know
initially
we
had
that
issue
and
then
okay,
so
so
more
to
come
as
you
roll
out
this.
This
will
be
part
of
the
budget
process
or
part
of
a
separate
process.
Well,
we're
looking.
C
At
a
couple
of
things,
definitely
it's
part
of
the
budget
process.
We
we
do
right
now.
We
are
internally
working
on
some
potential
recommendations
to
potentially
come
to
you
before
the
budget
process,
mainly
because
there's
a
time,
sensitivity,
issue
in
terms
of
ramp
up
of
programs,
and
so
we
are
still
having
that
conversation
internally
with
with
our
city
manager
and
budget
director
and
others
to
figure
the
time
it
out.
C
But
but
definitely
conversations
with
various
stakeholders
are
happening,
and
one
of
one
of
the
main
drivers
of
that
is
that
there's
a
lot
of
new
money
that
has
come
entered
into
this
arena.
So
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
being
very
mindful
of
how
we
use
san
jose's
money
to
better
leverage
and
tap
into
economies
of
scale
to
best
maximize,
not
only
the
resources
but
the
targeted
impact
that
we're
having
on.
D
On
children
yeah,
I
think
you
anticipate
my
next
question,
so
I
want
to
do
whatever
we
can
to
be
in
the
front
of
the
line
for
all
this
resources.
That's
so
important,
so
thank
you
on
the
the
hiring
on
on
the
sj
beautify
teams.
I
know
that's
been
a
pain
point.
I
saw
that
in
the
presentation.
C
Yeah,
so
so,
as
a
quarter
two
we
we
had
filled
16
of
the
28..
I
am
pleased
to
report
that,
as
of
this
week,
we
will
we
will
basically
have
all
those
positions
filled.
We
have
we
we're
at
the
end
stage
of
that
process
and
right
now
we're
finalizing
offers.
We
have
offers
that
are
being
made
literally
as
we
speak,
so
we
will
be
of
those
28
at
100
percent.
As.
D
F
Yeah,
thank
you
mayor
so
previously,
when
the
enterprise
priority
included
housing
production,
we
had
north
san
jose
grouped
in
that
enterprise
priority,
but
since
we've
decided
to
focus
on
homelessness,
we've
taken
north
san
jose
out,
because
that
is
focused
on
housing
production
and
incorporated
that
into
the
enterprise
priority
for
building
the
san
jose
tomorrow,
with
a
focus
on
downtown
so
that
enterprise
priority.
It
includes
downtown
strategy
specifically,
but
actually
it's
also
about
development
services,
citywide
and
housing
production,
citywide.
D
That's
good
to
hear
and
then
on
the
traffic
safety
improvements
at
the
nine
locations.
I
understand
december
was
a
wet
month.
Obviously
we
had
very
dry
months
since
then.
Unfortunately,
is
there
anything
you
can
tell
us
about.
What's
happened
since
january
first
yeah,
I
do
have.
C
Some
more
good
news
on
that
too,
as
a
quarter,
two
we're
yeah.
That
was
one
of
our
our
yellow
areas.
There
we
are
at
five.
As
of
quarter
three,
we
will
be
hitting
nine
by
the
end
of
next
week,
and
so
we
will
be
exceeding.
D
That
goal
that's
great
sam
you're
set
up
man
angel,
that's
great,
okay
and
then
just
one
general
kind
of
comment.
As
I
was
looking
through
the
okrs,
and
I
imagine
it's
probably
something
you'll
talk
with
the
folks
at
hbs
as
you
have
these
huddles
it.
It
seems
as
though
a
lot
a
fair
number
of
the
krs
are
connected
to
things
like
sort
of
tasks
like
meetings
with
the
public
issuances
of
a
report
hosting
events,
they
don't
seem
clearly
connected
to
outcomes
that
impact
our
residents.
D
D
I
I'm
just
concerned
an
awful
lot
of
this.
The
kr's
not
an
awful
lot.
Many
of
the
krs
can
be
essentially
box,
checking
exercises
rather
than
really
kind
of
driving
us
to
the
outcomes
that
have
impacts
on
our
residents
and-
and
so
you
know,
if
we
know
outreach
absolutely
has
to
be
part
of
something
which
it
often
does.
D
K
Yeah,
thank
you
mayor.
I
I
mean.
Actually,
we
agree
we're
actively
discussing
the
difference
between
outcome
and
output
and
and
the
outcome
is
really
what
we
want
to
see
at
the
enterprise
priority
level.
I
think
we
also,
as
we
iterate
through
this
and
you've,
seen
the
list
of
people
in
the
150.
K
I
I
think
we
do
recognize
that
some
of
the
krs
look
more
like
just
outputs
yeah,
that
we
might
be
able
to
frame
differently
and
get
and
get
get
the
same
result
but
frame
it
differently
and
that's
part
of
what
we're
going
to
be
iterating
on
as
well.
So
so
both
of
those
things
are
true
and
that's
kind
of
the
the
output
of
the
harvard
business
school
is
both
a
framework
to
kind
of
look
at
what
we've
done
and
make
improvements
for
a
framework
and
then
pilot.
K
One
of
the
high
priorities
for
linking
out
comes
to
outputs
the
key
results.
So
we
had
that
whole
framework
together.
D
Okay,
great
appreciate
you
guys
are
a
couple
steps
ahead
of
me
great
any
other
questions.
A
Well,
not
not
so
much
a
question,
but
an
invitation,
and
I'm
glad
you
brought
up
the
collaboration
between
stakeholders
to
make
sure
that
we
maximize
and
leverage
our
resources
around
child
care,
and
so
everyone
is
invited
to
march
25th.
I
think
I
believe
10-12
we
had
to
delay
our
meeting,
but
this
is
a
joint
meeting
with
the
committee.
The
county
committee,
the
children
and
families
committee
and
we
are
are
having
a
conversation
about
how
to
manage
how
we
are
managing
our
resources
so
that
we
don't
duplicate
anything.
A
So
the
county
office
of
ed
will
be
there
as
well
as
first
five
and
many
others
who
have
something
or
anything
to
do
with
child
care,
and
so
mayor,
you're,
invited
to
attend
and
and
make
sure
that
I
know
that's
one
of
your
priorities
is
to
make
sure
we
don't
duplicate
services
and-
and
that's
exactly
why
we're
having
this
second
conversation
about
that.
L
F
L
D
O
I
share
with
you
two
communications
from
russian
counterparts
of
recent
days,
one
chilling
and
one
touching
hi
tim.
I
hate
this
war,
it's
madness.
We
have
total
censorship,
facebook
and
twitter
are
closed,
and
so
is
telegram.
Opposition
media
is
closed
and
a
lot
of
fake
news.
We
are
trapped
right
now
because
of
our
government
and
we
are
easily
arrested
it's
dangerous
for
me
to
even
chat
here.
Maybe
short
messages
will
be
okay
and
the
second
one.
Thank
you
very
much.
Dear
tim,
I
appreciate
your
support
and
understanding.
We
are
people
and
we
are
for
peace.
O
Today
is
a
very
hard
time
and
every
piece
of
news,
support
and
friendship
is
important.
It's
easy
to
stop
the
relationship
between
our
cities,
but
please
don't
don't
stop
our
channel
of
friendship.
It
would
be
very
sad
yours
in
friendship
as
chair
of
the
sister
cities,
ukraine,
national
task
force
and
locally
as
president
of
the
san
jose
e-cattenburg
sister
city
program.
O
I
urge
you
to
not
suspend
or
end
or
interfere
with
our
31
year
old
san
jose
e
caterpillar
sister
city
program
at
this
critical
time,
so
that
we
can
continue
our
everyday
work,
advancing
the
sister
city's
mission
to
promote
peace
through
mutual
respect,
understanding
and
cooperation,
one
individual
and
one
community
at
a
time.
Thank
you.
S
Hi,
thank
you,
claire
beekman,
here,
I'd
like
to
you
know,
I've
learned
important
lessons
about
how
persons
like
council,
person,
uranus
and
perales.
They
want
to
create
an
important
position
and
stand
at
this
time.
I
thank
you
that
they
are
using
the
words
temporary
and
not
permanent
war
is
usually
not
permanent,
and
there
will
be
a
time
that
I
think
we
we
will
have
to
be
communicating
with
our
sister
cities
again,
and
I
think
we
should
really
keep
those
channels
open
for
ourselves.
S
Basically,
I
think,
as
I
thought,
the
mayor's
memo
was
kind
of
interesting
in
describing
its
original
intentions
of
the
sister
city
program.
It
does
provide
a
series
of
checks
and
balances,
for
you
know
as
there's
fighting
at
the
national
level.
It
is
the
local
level
of
a
sister
city
program
that
can
have
an
incredibly
important
level
of
communication
and
dialogue
and
and
people
at
the
local
level
tend
to
be
more
caring
and
sharing
and
want
to
work
together
better,
and
it
was
exactly
why
the
sister
city
program
was
created
and
what
it
was
for.
S
So
I'm
I'm
very
much
for
keeping
those
channels
of
dialogue
open,
and
it's
from
that
that
as
much
as
we
are
just
you
know
bemoaning
how
much
evil
russia
is.
I
really
hope
after
we
offer
our
strong
stand
and
those
sort
of
words
we
follow
those
words
with
the
ideas
of
what
exactly
can
be
peace
for
the
future
of
the
ukraine
region.
Each
time
we
talk
about
russia
and
the
ukraine
region,
can
we
please
talk
about
what
can
be
concepts
of
peace
for
the
future
of
the
ukrainian
people?
S
T
My
name
is
nancy
madison
and
I'm
the
chair
of
the
county
of
santa
clara
moscow,
sister
county
commission.
In
that
capacity
I
worked
closely
with
the
san
jose
the
catherineburg
sister
city
organization,
during
2021
to
plan
a
30th
anniversary
exchange
celebrating
their
sister
city
connection.
The
proposed
project
focused
on
virtual
and
in-person
gastronomic
events
highlighting
the
city's
shared
multicultural
values,
faculty
and
administrators
from
both
san
jose
state
university
and
the
euro.
State
university
of
economics
were
intensively
involved
in
the
planning
stages.
T
T
P
I
think
it's
ridiculous
to
burn
a
bridge
like
this.
I
mean
take
a
look
at
what
trudeau
did
up
in
canada.
You
guys
should
get
rid
of
any
sister
cities
in
canada.
What
that
guy
did?
How
about
what
the
chinese
do
to
the
uyghurs
and
christian
people
they
they
murder
them.
They
put
them
in
concentration
camps.
I
mean,
when
do
you
start
picking
and
choosing
who's
moral?
P
I
mean,
if
I
would,
if
I
was
in
another
country-
and
I
was
the
mayor
of
a
town
in
another
country,
I
would-
and
I
had
a
sister
city
relationship
with
san
jose.
I
would
have
cut
it
off
in
june
of
2016.
P
why
san
ricardo
and
eddie
garcia,
let
people
get
beaten
down
while
the
cops
looked
on.
So
you
know
what
sam
you're
no
angel,
neither
is
pierre
trudeau
is.
You
know
people
want
to
bad
mouth
putin
and
the
russian
people
you
guys
are
going
with
a
frenzy
here
again
against
the
russians.
It's
like
you
guys
are
1980s
cold
war
warriors
all
of
a
sudden,
really,
like
I
said,
you're
like
a
city
in
alabama,
watching
people
get
pummeled
and
doing
nothing
about
it.
You
guys
should
really
reevaluate
your
morals,
your
ethics
and
your
values
and
your
souls.
P
P
You
guys,
you
guys,
have
a
moral
and
ethical
problem
at
city
hall,
and
you
know
it
and
all
of
a
sudden
you
can
be
some
like
crusader
in
in
cutting
off
some
sister
city
relationship.
P
You
guys
should
be
ashamed
of
yourself
start
looking
at
other
countries
and
other
cities,
you
have
sister
relationships
with
and
see
how
lilly
white
they
are
they're.
Not,
and
neither
neither
is
this
town
and
you
guys
know
it.
You
guys
know
it,
and
I
could.
I
would
love
to
see
the
looks
on
your
faces
right
now.
You
know
I'm
sure
a
lot
of
you
are
laughing
because
that's
what
you
do
in
your
car.
H
I
think
there
is
no
question
already
based
on
what
we
see
based
on
these
crimes
against
humanity
completed
in
ukraine,
that
putin's
russia
is
the
same
as
hitler's
germany
and
if
you
support
con
having
any
relationship,
please
think
about
what
side
of
history
you're
going
to
be,
because
this
will
these
are
historic
times
and
every
decision
will
be
looked
upon,
and
please
remember
that
russians,
the
russian
as
the
people,
their
responsibility
for
their
leader.
They
have
him
there
for
20
years.
H
It
has
to
be
done
in
order
to
save
lives.
That
is
the
thing
that
can
bring
peace
to
ukraine
and
save
thousands,
if
not
millions,
of
life
as
we
watch
this
carnage
and
slaughter
and
genocide
of
ukrainian
people
going
on.
So
I
just
want
to
raise
awareness
of
of
everyone
no
fly
zone
for
ukraine.
This
is
what
all
americans
should
be
demanding
right
now
in
face
of
humanity
back
to.
D
Thank
you
before
we
go
to
council
comments.
I
I
was
hoping
I
could
just
ask
for
clarification
either
from
the
clerk
or
from
whoever's
present
on
the
rules
committee.
I
understand
that
various
provisions
were
adopted
from
both
memoranda,
which
is
fine.
The
letter
f
describes
two
letters
to
be
sent
which
expressed
concern
over
the
russians
government's
actions
and
consider
suspending
the
sister
city
relations
within
canterbury.
I
assume
that
was
the
vote
from
rules
and
would
just
be
helpful
to
understand
both
sort
of
the
audience
and
the
content
of
those
letters.
D
Councilman
cohen
indicated
he
might
want
to
oh
or
councilmember
ryan
she's.
The
one.
I
A
I
I
So
we
talked
a
lot
about
what
the
appropriate
action
course
of
action
was
and
came
to
the
conclusion
that,
through
our
relationship,
we
had
the
opportunity
to
send
to
reach
out
government
to
government
as
a
city
to
the
government
of
this
of
our
sister
city
and
express
our
concerns
and
hope
that
they
will,
you
know,
support
peace
and
stand
up
for
peace
and
then.
I
Secondly,
we
realized,
of
course,
that
it's
unlikely
that
an
official
government
body
in
russia
would
stand
up
against
putin
and
the
government
and
that
we
also
could
empower
either
a
council
member
or,
with
the
help
of
our
sister
city
organization,
to
write
a
letter
to
people
saying
we're
concerned.
We
stand
for
peace.
We
hope
that
we
can
work
together
towards
peace,
and
I
was
thinking
of
lines
about
you
know
we're.
I
We
don't
we're
heartbroken
to
see
what
the
government
is
doing
in
ukraine
and
yeah.
We
while
we
considered-
and
I
think
this
is
where
the
language
came
from.
While
we
considered
potentially
spending
a
relationship,
we
value
the
relationship
and
support
the
russian
people
in
standing
up
against
putin
as
well.
That's
the
kind
of
letter
we
were
talking
about
it.
Wasn't
we
didn't
want
to
use
the
letter
as
a
threat
of
suspension,
but
more
as
a
as
a
just
a
way
of
expressing
how
we
can
support
them
in
their.
You
know,
in
their
fight.
D
I'd
certainly
support
that,
and
I
appreciate
the
intent
here
as
we're
trying
to,
I
think,
we're
all.
After
the
same
thing,
I
I
think
you
know,
as
tim
quigley
spoke,
he
mentioned
a
lot
of
reference
to
communication
he's
had
with
russian
immigrants,
and
I
think
it
might
even
be
an
opportunity
to
engage
russian
speakers
in
this
city
in
some
kind
of
greater
mass
communication.
But
in
that
event,
councilmember
arenas.
A
A
I
know
we're
not
going
to
spend
very
much
time,
because
all
of
this
is
is
in
some
ways
symbolic,
but
as
I
attended
the
protest
and
demonstration
on
saturday,
there
was
a
lot
of
ukrainian
families
and
and
friends
and
people
who
just
supported
them
and,
and
it
was
it
really
struck
me
how
it
my
intention
is
not
to
end
a
communication
or
this
citizen
diplomacy
that
was
cited
in
in
the
memo
in
your
memo
mayor,
but
rather
to
show
a
collective
stance.
A
Locally,
which
is
what
is
most
important-
our
close-knit
community
here,
obviously
we're
not
going
to
make
a
dent
in
foreign
policy
or
informs
matters,
but
I
thought
about
also
how
we
could
also
explore
a
sister
city
with
it
with
a
ukrainian
city.
I
don't
know
that
we
have
one,
and
I
don't
know
that
this
is
the
time
to
do
it.
A
But
if
we're
we're
saying
this
is
the
time
to
keep
communications
open
with
the
catterenburg
that
I
think
that
we
should
also
do
that
with
with
another
city
in
the
ukraine,
so
that
we
can
maintain
those
relationships
as
they
hopefully
pull
through
all
of
this
soon
enough.
Lastly,
I'm
going
to
support.
A
What's
on
the
motion,
that's
on
the
floor
here,
but
the
the
last
thing
that
I'll
say
is
that
my
intention
with
this
memo
was
to
be
symbolic
to
our
community
here
of
san
jose
and
also
the
south
bay
and
there's
there's
a
lot
of
strength
in
numbers,
as
I
saw
on
saturday
at
the
demonstration-
and
I
just
like
to
remind
my
colleagues
and
mayor
that
the
diplomacy
that
we're
talking
about
also
be
the
citizen
diplomacy
that
we're
talking
about
while
symbolic
also
be
afforded
to
each
other.
A
As
I
think
the
the
the
tone
of
your
memo
wasn't
something
that
I
appreciated,
and
so
I
think
in
the
spirit
of
of
diplomacy.
I
think
we
need
to
make
sure
that
we
are
talking
with
one
another
in
a
way
that
builds
communication.
That
builds
relationships
rather
than
chastises,
which
is
what
your
memo
came
across.
As.
I
Yeah,
thank
you
I'll
I'll
just
quickly
just
say
I
it's
important
for
us
to
take
to
do
something
symbolic
to
support,
I
think
in
solidarity
with
the
ukrainians,
in
our
community
and
around
the
world.
I
do
want
to
say
also
that
I
appreciate
your
suggestion
mayor
and
for
that.
The
item
e.
That's
in
the
motion.
I
I
think
that
can
be
more
than
symbolic,
and
I
think
that
that's
one
of
the
few
ways
that
people
around
the
world
can
make
a
difference
is
with
their
money
with
their
investments
with
their
wallets
with
their
decisions
that
are
happening
right
now.
I
So
I
I
I
just
want
to
point
out
that
that's
in
this
motion
as
well-
and
I
think
it's
a
use-
a
good
tool
for
us
to
pursue
so
I'll-
make
a
motion
to
to
approve
the
item
with
the
clarification
and
language
that
I
just
gave
is
the
answer
to
your
question.
If
that's
clear
enough.
D
Q
Thank
you
I'd
like
to
ask
the
maker
of
the
motion
to
bifurcate.
I
support
all
the
actions
except
the
letters
to
to
ekaterinburg.
I
think
it's
really
important
for
us
to
just
express
support,
as
opposed
to
threaten
any
kind
of
suspension,
and-
and
I
I'm
not,
I
would
really
like
the
motion
to
be
bifurcated
to
have
that
the
letters
be
separate.
I
Before
I
answer
that
question
just
to
clarify,
I
wanted
to
be
clear
that
I
wasn't.
I
hope
that
the
letters
wouldn't
be
threatening
in
any
way.
They
would
be
a
presumably
a
show
of
solidarity
and
and
and
a
statement
of
we
we
were
so
concerned
that
we
might
have
considered
it,
but
we
we
value
the
relationship
kind
of
a
statement.
So,
okay.
R
Yeah,
thank
you.
I
make
my
comments
as
a
council
member
and
also
my
comments
as
the
current
board
member
for
sister
cities
international
having
come
after
councilman
perales
had
to
step
away,
and
I
know
that
council
member
carrasco
was
on
there
as
well
and
before
her
was
councilman
rashford,
and
so
I
have.
I
have
concerns
about
the
but
the
letters
specifically
I'm
in
agreement
with
everything.
R
That's
in
the
memo,
everything
that
came
out
of
rules
except
the
letters,
and
so
I
wanted
a
little
clarification
on
the
letters
I
understood.
Councilmember
cohen
you
saying
that
there's
going
to
be
two
letters,
one
is
from
government
to
government,
so
the
city
of
san
jose
to
that
particular
city
right
is
that
is
that
the
way
you
envision
it
playing
out.
R
Yeah,
so
if
you
think
well,
one
main
thing
that
comes
to
mind
as
it
relates
to
I'll
just
use
your
language.
A
government
to
government
letter
is
that
I
fear
that
if
we
do
that,
it's
essentially
going
to
have
the
same
effect
of
having
a
chilling
effect.
R
R
Their
own
butt,
if
you
will,
by
making
certain
that
they're
towing
the
line,
the
the
nationalistic
line
of
going
out
there-
and
you
know
invading
ukraine
and
such
and
so
I'd,
be
concerned
that
a
letter
from
government
to
government
would
essentially
have
the
same
impact
of
severing
that
relationship
and
making
it
more
difficult
to
the
future
in
developing
again
that
relationship
and
then
promoting
it,
and
so
I
have
that
concern-
and
I
also
just
want
to
say
that
I
think
that
during
these
times
of
conflict
and
and
I
think
it's
important
to
also
note
that
that
that,
during
these
time,
conflicts-
these
are
very
you
know-
certainly
what's
happened
in
ukraine.
R
No
one
wishes
that
on
anyone-
I'm
not
certain.
I'm
certainly
not
supportive
of
that.
I
think
it's
portable
what's
happening
to
the
people
there,
but
some
of
these
foreign
policy
matters
are
very,
very
complicated.
It's
very
nuanced.
I
think
you
know
tim
quigley
and
I
started
talking
a
little
bit
about
just
the
history
of
ukraine
and
russia
and
their
posturing
and
things
of
that
nature.
R
So
so
it's
very
complicated,
but
I
certainly
with
you
all
of
you
stand
with
the
folks
on
the
ground
that
I
think
just
are
striving
for
a
better
life
and
certainly
don't
deserve,
what's
happening
to
them.
R
And
so
I
would
ask
for
a
friendly
amendment
if,
if
we
do
not
write
the
letter
from
government
to
government,
but
instead
write
a
letter
to
the
people
to
the
sister
cities
organization,
tied
to
the
people
in
that
city,
to
express
our
our
support
and
express
our
concerns
over
some
of
what's
happening
and
do
that
in
a
way
in
which
we
don't
even
mention
the
possibility
of
suspension.
R
And
I'm
wondering,
if
councilmember
cohen,
if
you'd
be
willing
to
entertain
that
amendment.
I
Yeah,
I
think
that
makes
sense.
I
mean
I
think
it'll
be
hard
for
us
to
figure
out
how
to
formulate
a
government-to-government
letter
anyway.
It
wasn't
obvious
to
me
who
would
do
that
and
how
so
I
think
I
think
it
makes
sense,
and
we
can
work
with
our
sister
city
folks,
like
tim
and
others
who
who
know
who
to
reach
out
to
and
how
to
send
that
letter.
I
I'll
accept
a
friendly
amendment
that
that
refers
to
one
letter
and
that
specifies
you,
council,
member
jimenez,
as
responsible
yeah.
R
That
that's
okay
and
that
would
be
people
to
people
without
them.
You
know
from
from
us
to
the
residents
of
that
particular
city
without
the
mention
of
terminating
or
or
sort
of
undoing,
the
established
relationship.
That
I
know
is,
you
know,
I
think,
needs
some
work
and
such,
but
if
that's
a
spirit
in
which
you
understand
this,
I
could
be
supportive
of
the
motion.
D
Is
that
acceptable,
the
secondary
customer
arrest?
Okay,
okay,
all
right
councilman
reminisce
be
careful
what
you
asked
for
in
life.
You
might
get
it
it's!
Okay,
sir.
Thank
you.
Okay,
thank
you
just
want
to
know
we.
This
weekend
I
was
at
the
us
mayor's
conference
leadership
meeting
in
miami.
D
We
heard
direct
appeals
from
by
zoom
a
very
emotional
appeal
from
chief
mayor
vitaly
klitschko
spoke
to
us
for
20
or
30
minutes
and
from
the
ukrainian
ambassador
to
the
united
states.
Oksana
marco
rova,
there's,
obviously
things
that
they're
asking
for
which
none
of
us
are
capable
of
delivering
and
things
that
the
united
states
is
is
reluctant
to
offer,
for
example,
no
fly
zone.
D
I
know
it's
been
widely
discussed,
but
certainly
I
appreciate
that
we're
all
trying
to
just
find
ways
which
we
can
be
of
some
use
in
what
is
a
horrible
horrible
situation
of
russian
military
aggression
against
innocent
civilians
and
innocent
people
in
ukraine.
U.S
conference
of
mayors
did
take
a
position.
D
That's
aligned
with
the
position
worth
taking
specifically
unanimously
voted
that,
along
with
other
things
that
were
mentioned,
that
we
have
long
established
sister
city
relationships
with
cities
in
russia
that
should
be
maintained
and
strengthened,
to
empower
russian
citizens
to
speak
out
in
the
cause
of
democracy
and
peace,
and
certainly
whatever
we
can
do
to
empower
russian
citizens.
I
think
is
critically
important
right
now,
because
we
know
if
ukraine
falls.
D
Moldova
is
probably
next,
and
it
seems
to
me
that
the
only
thing
that
I
won't
say,
the
only
thing
lord
knows
there's
a
lot
of
horrible
things
that
can
happen,
but
the
best
way
to
stop
putin,
it
seems
to
me,
is
the
russian
people
actually
stand
up.
So
we'll
do
what
we
can
try
to
support
them
to
do
so.
Councilmember
foley.
F
Thank
you.
This
is
really
a
sobering
discussion
for
sure
it's,
I
feel
deeply
for
the
ukrainian
people
and
you
feel
powerless
what
we
can
do
at
a
local
government
to
offer
any
sort
of
assistance,
but
severing
a
relationship
or
offering
to
several
relationships
sends
the
wrong
message
that
isn't
peace,
that
that
is
more
of
was
of
a
concern
to
me.
I'm
happy
to
see
the
motion
move
into
the
way.
F
It
is
now
with
the
letter,
the
friendly
amendment
and
the
letter
stating
that
it
will
be
more
through
the
sister
city
organization
and
preserving
peace
and
a
relationship
between
a
sister
cities
that
has
been
developed
over
many
years.
F
I
honor
the
sister
city
program
and
this
is
a
good
opportunity
for
us
to
extend
a
hand
to
our
russian
counterparts
and
say
we're
here
if
we
can
do
anything
to
help
you
and
if
it's
as
far
as
even
as
simple
as
getting
out
messages
in
social
media,
because
I
know
they're
not
able
to,
we
can
help
in
that
regard
too.
So
I'm
happy
to
support
the
motion
now
that
it's
moved
in
the
direction,
and
I
want
to
thank
council
member
jimenez
offering
to
write
the
letter.
D
Okay,
I
think
we
have
a
motion.
Then,
let's
vote.
S
F
S
G
D
M
M
So,
first,
on
long
duration,
storage,
our
recommendation
is
to
procure
up
to
25
megawatts
of
long-duration
storage
from
ellis
power's
tumbleweed
project.
This
is
a
lithium-ion
battery
storage
project
located
in
kern
county.
It
has
an
annual
cost
of
5.9
million,
with
a
total
not
to
exceed
amounts
of
89
million.
M
M
Reliability
needs,
and
importantly,
it's
very
important
to
pair
these
projects
where
renewable
projects
are
cited
so
that
we
can
also
reduce
our
carbon
emissions.
So
the
photo
here
is
the
battery
storage
project
located
in
kern
county.
You
can
see
its
multiple
batteries
stacked
together
to
get
that
eight
hour.
Duration.
N
Good
afternoon,
mayor
and
council
members,
so
we
wanted
to
let
you
know
the
cpuc
in
2021
directed
load
serving
entities
which
is
basically
the
ccas
and
the
utilities
to
procure
additional
resources,
and
our
specific
requirement
is
247
megawatts
of
clean
capacity
over
the
course
of
several
years,
ending
in
2026,
which
included
21.5
megawatts
of
long
duration,
storage
and
the
21.5
megawatts.
That
has
to
be
something
that's
capable
of
being
delivered
in
september,
and
so
you
know
the
total
amount
tends
to
be
a
little
bit
higher
so
that
we
can
meet
that
threshold.
N
N
I
believe
it
was
late
last
year,
so
we
participated
with
cc
power
in
a
solicitation
for
long-duration
storage
in
october
of
2021,
and
we
received
robust
participation,
which
is
one
of
the
advantages
of
working
with
cc
power,
because
that
bigger
buying
pool
interests,
a
lot
of
people.
So
we
got
51
entities
participating
and
we're
now
bringing
before
you
the
highest.
R
N
Proposal
which
was
the
ellis
power
tumbleweed
project
six
other
ccas
and
ourselves
are
interested
in
proceeding
with
this
project.
It's
a
really
good
group,
four
of
those
other
ccas
have
a
investment
grade.
Credit
rating
and
the
two
remaining
ones
are
very
small.
They're
they're,
going
to
be
taking
less
than
five
percent
of
the.
N
N
That's
been
developed
for
electric
vehicles
and
to
get
that
eight
hour
duration,
you
basically
increase
the
amount
of
batteries
and
we're
beginning
to
be
very
interested
in
this
longer
duration,
so
that
we
can
really
make
the
best
use
of
our
solar
resources,
as
laurie
had
mentioned
for
san
jose,
the
total
amount
that
we
could
pay
on
an
annual
basis
is
5.9
million
dollars,
89
million
dollars
in
aggregate
over
a
course
of
15
years,
and
the
online
date
is
expected
to
be
june
of
2026,
which
is
the
deadline
that
the
cpuc
gave
us
to
bring
these
types
of
resources
into
existence,
so
we're
seeking
approval
for
up
to
25
megawatts,
which
you'll
see
is
above
the
15.37
megawatts,
and
the
reason
why
we're
doing
that
is
two
things.
N
May
be
required
to
take
a
little
bit
more
up
to
25
more
than
what
they
were
initially
signed
up
for,
and
so
those
25
megawatts
would
give
us
the
room
to
do
that.
N
That
that
leads
us
directly
into
the
agreement
structure.
The
way
this
is
going
to
work
is
cc.
Power
will
contract
with
the
developer
through
an
energy
service.
Storage
agreement
is
basically
just
an
agreement
where
the
developer
sells
to
cc
power.
The
services
that
you
can
get
from
the
battery
then
there's
going
to
be
a
project,
participation
share
agreement,
which
is
between
cc
power
and
the
ccas
that
are
participating
that
basically
set
out
what
is
each
of
our
respective
shares
and
the
concurrent
payment
obligations
for
that
share.
N
Then
there's
something
called
a
buyer
liability,
pass-through
agreement
which
basically
gives
the
developer
an
ability
to
reach
through
cc
power
to
the
specific
ccas,
but
only
for
their
share
of
the
project,
and
the
reason
why
that's
important
is
because
cc
power
itself
doesn't
have
assets,
and
so
the
developers
want
to
have
a
they're
there
in
terms
of
who
they're
contracting
with
in
case
there
are
any
problems
with
payment
and
then
the
final
agreement
would
be
a
coordinated
operations
agreement
which
could
basically
be
between
cc
power
and
the
participating
ccas
that
just
gets
into
how
the
resource
would
be
operated.
M
M
So
why
is
this
authority
needed
well
annually?
We
come
to
council
to
increase
this
authority
as
we
get
closer
to
the
year
that
we
need
to
buy
that
power
in
so
just
as
a
reminder
we
buy
most
of
our
power
in
ford
energy
markets,
that's
very
important
to
reduce
our
costs.
If
we
do
not
buy
in
the
forward
market,
then
we
have
to
buy
in
the
day
ahead
and
real-time
market,
which
typically
can
be
more
volatile.
M
M
However,
there
is
some
risk
with
these
projects
and
that
we
know
what
they're
going
to
generate
over
the
course
of
the
year
generally,
but
on
any
given
day
that
can
vary
based
on
the
weather
of
the
day.
So
what
we've
recommended
is
to
increase
our
coverage
ratio
for
those
days
so
that
we
manage
our
risk
in
those
real
time
and
day
ahead
markets.
M
So
what
does
that
look
like
so,
for
this
year,
council
had
approved
283
million
in
power
supply
authority.
We
are
requesting
an
additional
77
million,
which
would
bring
our
total
request
to
360
million
for
this
year,
but
very
important
to
note
that
that
is
our
total
authority.
Our
net
expected
cost
is
289
million,
and
that
is
because,
when
not
to
learn
that,
when
does
show
up,
we
will
sell
those
revenues
to
offset
our
costs.
M
Q
T
Yes,
thank
you
very
much.
I
appreciate
the
presentation
and
appreciate
your
time,
I'm
concerned
about
the
entire
cycle
and
the
battery
waste
and
the
pollution
costs
in
terms
of
both
building
the
battery
and
disposal
end
of
life.
I
hope
the
city
of
san
jose
is
looking
at
the
entire
picture
and
not
focusing
just
on
specific
items.
T
S
All
right,
thank
you,
blair,
beekman.
Here
thanks
a
lot
for
this
item.
It's
it's
incredibly
important
after
the
items
of
russia
we
just
talked
about.
Thank
you.
I've
been
attending
renewable
energy
meetings
for
the
past
four
or
five
years
now
you
know
I've
laurie
has
talked
about
it
sjc.
S
You
know
the
advisory
commission
community
meetings
talk
about
it.
East
bay,
community
energy,
their
statistics,
their
their
the
statistical
data.
Talk
used
to
talk
about
it,
2023
was
meant
to
be
a
really
important
year.
For
some
reason,
I've
not
known
why?
S
With
all
these
new
american
fossil
fuel
money
coming
in,
there's
going
to
be
a
big
push
to
create
a
dirty
energy
industry
again
in
this
country
and-
and
I
hope,
as
you're,
going
to
procure
money
for
sjce
that
they
have
a
bad
problem
to
like
use
this
brown,
I
don't
want
to
say
brown
energy,
this
dirty
energy,
a
lot
and
they
they
tend
to
rely
on
it
more
than
a
really
important
good
push
that's
being
made
toward
renewable
energy
ideas
at
this
time.
S
I
hope
we
can
can
really
continue
the
good
efforts
towards
renewable
energy
and
really
leave
dirty
fossil
fuel
behind
and
his
lessons
that
putin
obviously
needs
to
learn
and
why
he's
locked
into
some
bad
decision-making
at
this
time,
it
seems
renewables
bring
out
our
more
creative
selves.
Good
luck
with
this
and
with
the
battery
issue,
good
luck
to
workers
rights
issues
around
the
world
as
they
mine
this.
These
battery
ion
things.
Thank
you.
Q
Thank
you.
I
want
to
thank
you
both
for
the
presentation.
I
want
to
give
you
a
chance
to
comment
on
the
public
commenter
who
was
asking
about
the
life
cycle,
environmental
issues.
M
Sure
it's
it's
a
very
good
point.
You
know,
I
would
say.
As
john
pointed
out,
there
were
a
number
of
technologies
that
we
considered
in
the
solicitation,
and
this
was
the
highest
ranking,
and
certainly
it
will
be
important
for
us
in
the
future
to
work
on
advanced
recycling
and
making
sure
that
these
projects
have
the
least
environmental
impact
that
they
can.
M
One
thing
that
is
happening
here
in
california
at
the
end
of
2024
and
2025,
which
is
why
the
public
utilities
commission
is
directing
these
projects
to
be
constructed
is
that
diablo
canyon,
which
is
the
state's
last
nuclear
power
plant,
is
being
decommissioned.
It
will
go
offline
in
2025,
so
it's
really
important
that
we
have
resources
to
replace
it,
and
you
know
also
important
to
make
sure
that
those
resources
we're
putting
in
do
have
the
least
environmental
impact
possible,
but
as
we
scored
that
it
did
have
the
highest
ranking.
Q
Thank
you,
and
it
looks
like
this
project
is
coming
online,
pretty
close
to
the
deadline.
So
can
you
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
risk
if
the
project
is
not
complete
in
time.
M
Yeah
so
I'll,
let
jean
talk
in
more
detail
about
that,
but
just
more
broadly
a
couple
things
to
manage
our
risk,
there's
additional
projects
that
we
are
working
on
and
that
we
will
bring
forward
to
council
so
that
you
know
we
do
have
a
mixed
portfolio
to
meet
those
regulatory
requirements
and
we're
not
relying
on
any
one
contract,
but
there's
also
a
number
of
provisions
in
the
agreement
that
incentivize
that
developer
to
make
sure
that
they
meet
their
commercial
operation
date
and
I'll.
Let
jean
talk
about
that
in
more
detail.
N
Yes,
so
all
of
the
agreements
that
we've
entered
into
always
have
a
performance
security,
that's
required
during
the
construction
phase,
so
that
if
a
project
is
either
delayed
or
ultimately
isn't
brought
to
construction,
isn't.
Finalized
construction
developer
is
at
risk
for
that
money,
but
I
think
what
lori
said
was
also
really
important
and
one
of
the
benefits
of
working
with
cc
power.
N
If
we
went
out
and
tried
to
meet
our
requirement,
it
would
be
difficult
for
us
to
contract
with
more
than
one
project,
because
the
pieces
would
be
so
small,
so
basically
it
would
be
an
all
or
nothing
if
the
project
that
we
contracted
with
ran
into
problems
here,
we're
going
to
be
contracting
with
a
number
of
projects
so
that
if
one
project
runs
into
trouble,
we
at
least
have
some
of
the
other
projects
to
meet
our
needs.
So
that's
one
of
the
advantages
of
working
with
cc
power.
Q
We're,
oh
thank
you.
That's
that's
helpful,
given
the
supply
constraints
that
all
industries
are
facing
and
we
and
the
uncertainty
in
how
long
those
supply
constraints
are
going
to
last.
I
just
I
question
whether
you'll
have
the
same
issue
with
multiple
projects.
M
Yeah,
it's
certainly
something
that
we
have
to
monitor.
We
have
to
monitor
that
with
all
of
our
projects.
I
would
say
additionally
to
that
performance
security.
We
stay
in
close
contact
with
these
developers
and
you
know
making
sure
that
they're
hitting
milestones
so
there's
milestones
around
when
they
begin
construction
milestones
around
when
materials
are
delivered
on
site
and
then
within
that
construction.
You
know
how
close
they
are
to
completion.
M
You
know
when
they
hit
the
50
and
90,
so
we're
in
close
contact
with
them
at
every
stage
of
that
development
which
can
help
us,
you
know,
see
problems
coming
and
you
know
try
to
mitigate
them.
I
would
say
the
other.
You
know
we
have
done
that
for
not
only
the
projects
that
we're
contracting
with
through
cc
power,
but
also
our
own,
and
that
has
worked
well.
M
We
had
two
of
our
first
projects
hit
their
commercial
operation
date
this
year
at
the
end
of
december
2021,
which
arguably
was
very
challenging
in
terms
of
both
the
pandemic
and
supply
chain
issues,
but
they
were
able
to
do
it.
So
we
are
hopeful
that
this
developer,
who
also
has
a
very
good
track
record,
should
be
able
to
meet
that
online
date
so
that
we
can
also
meet
our
regulatory
requirements.
M
But,
as
jean
said
there
are,
there
is
performance
security
that
that
developer
has
to
post
that
we
would
collect
if
they
didn't
meet
their
online
date
and
their
construction
milestone.
Q
Is
there
any
give
in
the
deadline
from
this
state?
I
know
that
diablo
coming
offline
is
part
of
the
reason,
but
would
we
be
able,
if,
if
these
projects
that
we're
talking
about
would
not
come
online
because
of
extreme
delays
in
especially
in
the
supply
issues
would
would
we
be?
It
sounds
like
we
would
have
enough
knowledge
in
advance
to
be
able
to
lobby
the
state
for
an
extension
of
the
deadline,
but
would
that
be
an
issue
with
our
procurement?
Would
we
have
enough
power.
M
Yeah
I
mean
that's
something
that
we
would
have
to
work
with
the
cpuc.
On
I
mean.
Certainly
we
would
notify
them
in
advance
and
then
importantly,
we
would
try
to
replace
the
resource
so
that
you
know
we're
not
contributing
to
a
reliability
issue,
but
certainly
that's
why
we
are
tracking
those
construction
milestones
very
closely,
and
we
also
have
to
report
that
to
the
public
utilities.
Commission,
so
they're
tracking
it
as
well.
Q
Okay
and
then
can
you
talk
a
little
bit
about
how
this
new
source
compares
in
cost
to
other
sources?
I'm
I'm
just
questioning.
I
I
understand
we're
taking
on
a
little
bit
of
risk
in
in
actually
allowing
us
to
purchase
more
than
we
actually
want
if,
if
others
drop
out-
and
I
get
that
we're-
probably
a
bigger
player
than
some
of
those
other
ccas,
but
I'm
just
curious
in
terms
of
cost
effectiveness.
If
we
have
to
buy
more
than
we.
M
It's
a
great
question,
so
just
two
things
on
that
one.
Yesterday
it
was
the
highest
ranked
in
terms
of
costs
as
well
and
that's
why
we're
bringing
it
forward
and
although
those
provisions
are
in
agreement,
I
don't
expect
another
cca
to
drop
out
and
in
terms
of
size,
we're
actually
comparable.
So
the
other
ccas
that
we're
contracting
with
silicon
valley,
clean
energy,
they
serve
the
rest
of
santa
clara
county.
M
M
Smaller
they
also
have
an
investment
rate,
rated
credit
rating
and
then
there's
two
small
ones
that
that
have
a
very
small
slice
of
it
less
than
five
percent,
and
that's
the
valley,
clean
energy
that
serves
davis
and
yolo
counties
and
then
redwood
coast
that
serves
humboldt
and
mendocino
county.
So
I
think
it's
unlikely
that
we're
actually
going
to
have
to.
Q
I
understand
that,
but
we're
kind
of
double
counting
because
we're
you,
you
told
me
we're
expecting
to
meet
our
regulatory
requirements
with
multiple
projects,
and
so
I
guess
my
question
is
the
additional
megawatts
that
would
we
are
committed
to
that.
We
aren't
planning
to
purchase
what
how
do
those
relate
in
cost
to
what
were
the
other
things
that
were
already
the
other
power
that
we're
already
pursuing.
M
Yeah,
I'm
sorry,
I
didn't
mean
to
give
you
the
impression
that
we
would
buy
more
than
what
we
needed
so
we
will
buy.
We
will
bring
forward
projects
both
meet
our
regulatory
requirements,
but
also
to
serve
our
load,
and
so,
although
those
projects
might
slightly
exceed
our
regulatory
requirements,
we
still
need
them
to
meet
our
load,
so
we're
not
over
resourced
in
that
sense
of
it.
Okay,
thank
you.
Yeah.
I
I
Yeah,
I
thank
you
for
the
presentation
and
and
this
important
work
and
every
day
we
read
stories
about
what's
happening
around
the
world
today,
the
story
in
the
paper
about
the
amazon.
Really,
you
know
every
one
of
these
stories
is
is
devastating
and
so
the
more
we
do
and
to
clean
our
grid,
the
better.
I
have
a
few
questions.
I
You
know,
I
imagine
that
that
there'll
be
other
big
projects
for
for
energy
storage,
for
large
sales
storage
and
that
this
isn't
the
last
time
right
I
mean
we're.
Gonna
still
need
more
capacity
going
forward
and
we'll
be
talking
about
contracting
with
other
providers
in
the
future.
Is
that
correct.
M
M
Yeah,
it's
a
great
question,
so
there's
a
number
of
different
types
of
batteries.
There's
a
you
know
lithium-ion,
which
is
the
most
commercialized,
and
so
that's
where
we're
starting-
and
you
know
in
terms
of
the
best
value
but
there's
other
types
of
batteries,
there's
also
just
completely
different
technologies.
One
of
them
would
be
pumped
hydro
storage,
where
you're
essentially
pumping
water,
uphill
and
then
putting
it
back
through
a
power
turbine
there's
also
compressed
air
technologies.
Those
are
a
little
bit
more
in
the
emerging.
M
That's
something
we're
considering
and
even
on
the
more
emerging
side,
there's
something
called
energy
vault,
which
is
taking
advantage
of
kinetic
energy.
M
So
there's
a
number
of
different
storage
technologies
that
are
being
developed,
and
I
expect
many
of
them
will
continue
on
their
cycle
toward
commercialization
and
their
prices
will
come
down.
But
you
know
in
terms
of
where
we
were
starting,
especially
because
one
of
our
main
objectives
was
to
meet
our
regulatory
requirement.
We
wanted
to
start
with
something
that
was.
I
I
We
were
up
at
lake
observatory
and
we
saw
that
they
powered
the
dome
motion
by
water
gravity,
water
storage
right,
so
they
pumped
the
water
up
during
the
day
and
they
used
that
water
flowing
down
to
move
the
dome
at
night
during
the
1800s
before
they
had
electricity
up
there,
and
these
are
the
future
of
battery
storage.
I
So
I'm
excited
to
see
that
we'll
be
doing
that
more
there's,
even
ones
with
concrete
blocks
of
gravity,
storage
and
other
things
that
are
very
basic
but
yet
seem
so
advanced
in
some
sense,
because
people
aren't
doing
it
yet,
but
I'm
excited
to
see
some
of
those
technologies
as
well.
Thermal
storage,
as
you
mentioned,
compressed
air
storage,
they're,
all
good.
I
N
Yeah
for
this
particular
project,
that's
the
maximum
size
and
part
of
what
we're
struggling
in
the
state
is
for
interconnection
capacity.
There
are
other
projects
that
have
interconnection
capacity
and
that's
why
we're
talking
to
some
additional
folks,
but
definitely
across
the
state.
There
are
projects
in
development
again,
the
you
know
what
has
been
the
bottleneck.
I
And
lastly,
I
just
want
to,
as
I
always
point
out,
I
think
we
also
need
to
be
continuing,
and
I
know
we
are
talking
about
local
resilience
as
well,
right,
so
microgrids
and
and
local
production
of
energy,
so
that
we're
doing
things
here
and
not
continuing
to
rely
on
building
big
infrastructure
projects
in
central
valley
and
other
states.
I
So,
thank
you
so
much.
That's
all
my
questions.
D
Thank
you.
I
wanted
to
start
where
councilman
cohen
left
off.
I
share
his
enthusiasm,
but
I
also
just
wonder
about
the
opportunities
for
for
local
storage
and
I'm
just
wondering
do
we
have
any
sense
if
we
were
just
to
go,
build
out
on
the
story,
road,
landfill
or
under
you
know
the
87
freeway
and
go
build
a
storage
project
they
gave
us
is
a
21
megawatts
how
that
cost
would
compare
to
the
cost
of
participating
in
tumbleweed.
M
You
know,
I
don't
think
that
we've
we've
totally
mapped
it
out.
It's
certainly
an
idea.
I
know
that
you
know
we
have
looked
at
that
site
in
the
past
to
see
if
it's
viable
for
solar
and
that
certainly
wasn't
as
cost
effective
as
utility
scale
solar
projects
located
elsewhere.
But
it's
a
good
idea.
We
could
look
at
it
to
see
if
it
would
site
well
for
a
battery
storage
project.
D
I
can
appreciate
you're
under
a
lot
of
pr
time
pressure
with
the
state
mandates
for
procurement.
So
I
know
these
things
may
not
be
realistic.
I'm
just
kind
of
curious
to
understand
and
the
factors
that
drive
this.
I
would
assume
that
a
local
project
would
have
less
transmission,
so
less
resistance
and
theoretically,
a
more
efficient
delivery
of
power
is.
Is
that
a
fair
assumption?
Yeah.
M
So
there
would
be
less
line
losses
and
moving
the
electricity
from
one
location
to
the
other.
But,
as
jean
said,
one
of
the
main
constraints
right
now
is
just
having
that
inner
connection
place
on
the
transmission
grid.
So
we'd
have
to
look
at
that
story,
road
location
and
see
what
lines
it
can
connect
to
you
know.
One
thing
that's
very
exciting
and
interesting
is
the
california
iso
recently
released
a
10-year
and
a
20-year
transition
plan?
M
It's
pretty
bold
in
that
it
proposes
building
many
new
transmission
lines
across
the
state,
including
two
here
locally,
one
from
that
cup
into
downtown
and
another
one
from
newark
into
santa
clara,
and
so
that
may
provide
some
opportunities
for
more
projects
cited
here
locally.
You
know
over
the
coming
years,
but
right
now,
especially
for
this
project,
we
really
wanted
to
work
with
developers
that
already
had
a
place
in
that
interconnection
queue.
M
So
they
had
a
location
where
they
already
could
connect
to
the
transmission
grid.
But
certainly
here
you
know,
metcalf
is
is
a
place
that
we've
had
our
eye
on.
You
know,
there's
a
big
natural
gas
plant
there.
M
It
might
be
possible
to
do
something
there
in
the
future
once
it
eventually
retires
or
even
to
you
know,
work
with
the
operator
to
make
it
more
of
a
hybrid
plant
with
more
battery
storage.
That's
certainly
something
we've
worked
with
them
on.
M
So
we
are,
you
know,
focused
on
some
local
opportunities
but
they're,
just
not
quite
in
the
right
place
of
development
to
bring
them
forward.
Yet.
D
D
I
suggest
that
we
deal
with
the
stuff
up
to
try
to
take
on
these,
these
bigger
sort
of
resilience,
challenges
and-
and
it
seems
to
me
starting
to
identify
these
sites
so
that
we
could
work
through
the
various
land
use
challenges,
particularly
around
environmental
clearance
and
so
forth.
D
N
Yes,
so
they're,
basically
a
couple
of
flavors.
The
first
flavor
is
capacity
starting
in
2023,
24
and
25.
Then
that
capacity
could
be
batteries
alone
or
batteries
with
some
kind
of
renewable
like
solar,
the
2026
is
long-duration
storage,
so
starting
in
2023,
24
and
25.
N
We
have
requirements
for
battery
storage,
four
hours
or
battery
storage
paired
with
renewables
starting
in
2024.
Some
of
those
have
to
be
able
to
deliver
between
five
and
ten
in
the
evening
and
then
in
2026.
We
have
this
long
duration,
storage
and
firm,
clean
resources,
which
is
basically
typically
geothermal.
D
Okay,
so
we've
got
different
dogs
and
cats
here
that
we
have
to
go
chase
in
the
market
and
I
mean
yellow
canyon's
gonna
start
coming
offline
in
2024
right.
D
D
Okay,
thanks
laurie
yeah
and
then
just
finally
moving
to
the
procurement
of
the
the
the
power
are
we
concerned
at
all.
About
I
mean
it
looks
like
we've
got
a
lot
of
excess
power.
We
have
to
constantly
go
back
and
resell
in
the
secondary
market,
sort
of
satisfy
the
regulators
and
then
get
dump
it
right.
D
M
Yeah
I
mean
it's
something
that
we
have
to
look
at
over
time.
At
the
moment
you
know,
energy
markets
are
very
high
and
we
signed
these
solar
and
wind
agreements
several
years
ago
when
the
market
was
lower.
So
we
do
expect
to
sell
that
at
a
profit,
any
excess
that
we
have
for
at.
D
M
This
year
and
probably
into
2023,
because
our
markets
are
very
high
right
now,
right
so
yeah.
We
we
think
that
that's
a
prudent
way
to
manage
our
risk,
and
you
know
once
these
projects
have
been
generating
for
about
a
year.
We'll
have
a
better
idea
of
you
know
exactly
when
they're
going
to
deliver,
and
so
I
don't
know
that
we'll
always
have
to
have
that
high
of
a
coverage
ratio
but
because
prices
are
high,
it's
very
prudent
to
buy
ahead
because
we
don't
want
to
be
caught
short
right.
M
D
M
Us
a
lot
of
money.
So
that's
why
we're
recommending
that
coverage
ratio
for
this
year,
but
those
recommendations
will
change
depending
on
you
know
our
portfolio
mix,
but
also
what
point
in
time
we
are
in
the
market.
Whether
markets
are
low
or
high
at
the
time,
and
you
know
where
we
see
more
risk.
D
Okay
well,
thank
you,
and
I
just
wanted
to
thank
you
lori
for
your
foresight
and
leadership
in
forming
cc
power
with
these
other
ccas.
It
gets
so
incredibly
important
to
give
us
market
power,
and
it's
wonderful
that
you
got
out
way
in
front
on
that
and
you
know,
helps
us.
D
F
C
F
C
C
L
Good
evening,
mayor
and
council
jared
ferguson
with
the
office
of
economic
development
and
cultural
affairs
with
rachel
van
der
veen,
the
deputy
director
of
the
housing
department
also
nancy
klein,
the
director
of
office
of
economic
development
and
cultural
affairs
and
chris
burton
the
director
of
planning,
building
and
code
enforcement.
L
Several
of
those
interviewed
cited
the
success
of
the
dedicated
planner
and
advocated
for
a
similar
position
that
could
help
navigate
the
process
to
obtain
construction
permits
at
the
present.
There
is
not
capacity
within
departments
to
provide
this.
However,
staff
is
recommending
adding
a
work
item
to
the
housing
crisis,
work
plan
to
establish
regular
coordination
meetings
within
development
services.
L
L
L
Parking
requirements
were
also
mentioned,
and
further
reduction
or
elimination
of
them
were
supported
by
many
as
a
way
to
further
reduce
costs.
Projects
are
generally
able
to
utilize
state
density
bonus
law
to
allow
for
a
deeper
reduction
in
required
parking,
but
not
having
to
pursue
the
reduction
through
this
route
would
would
be
easier
for
them.
L
L
Electric
vehicle
charging
requirements
were
also
mentioned
as
something
that
adds
to
project
costs.
This
is
something
that
can
be
reduced
through
the
through
parking
reductions
and
staff
will
look
to
better
understand
these
costs
or
it's
update
to
the
residential
cost
of
development
study.
L
This
includes
seven
projects
with
846
units
for
a
total
of
just
under
2.7
million
dollars
in
taxes
collected,
which
averages
to
roughly
3
100
per
unit.
If
the
city
council
approves
the
recommendation
today,
then
staff
would
return
later
this
spring,
with
additional
analysis
and
recommendations,
including
a
five-year
forecast
based
on
the
current
pipeline
of
affordable
projects.
L
We
also
receive
feedback
regarding
estimating
of
fees
and
taxes
that
this
can
be
a
challenging
task.
The
development
fee
framework
is
a
work
item
currently
on
the
city's
roadmap
backlog
in
the
long
term.
This
effort
will
make
fees
easier
to
estimate
through
alignment
of
our
fees
and
taxes
through
a
common
set
of
standards.
L
However,
in
the
interim
staff
is
recommending
adding
an
item
to
the
housing
crisis,
work
plan
to
create
an
impact
fee
registry
that
will
be
a
unified
listing
of
all
fees
and
taxes
in
one
location,
with
a
point
of
contact
for
each
fee.
That
is
responsible
for
answering
questions
and
providing
estimates
I'll
pass
it
over
to
rachel.
F
F
Some
of
the
affordable
housing
developers
interviewed
raised
the
issue
of
competitiveness
of
the
issuance
issuance
fee
and
the
ongoing
monitoring
fee
staff
has
responded
to
this
concern
as
rec
and
is
recommending
to
add
a
workload
item
to
the
housing
crisis.
Work
plan
to
evaluate
and
compare
our
fees
with
outside
issuers
and
consider
strategies
to
eliminate
the
incentive
to
seek
outside
issuers.
F
F
As
I'm
sure
many
of
you
are
familiar
with
the
life
cycle
of
an
affordable
housing
development
is
quite
long
and
it
may
take
many
years
during
this
time
there
can
be
acquisition
of
the
site
entitlement
awarding
of
the
funding,
and
if
policy
changes
are
made
in
the
middle
of
these
timelines,
it
can
slow
down
a
project
mentioned
earlier
in
the
presentation.
Construction
costs
have
continued
to
rise
throughout
the
pandemic
projects,
most
often
utilize,
multiple
funding
sources
to
overcome
these
increased
and
the
additional
time
it
takes
to
secure.
This
funding
adds
time
to
the
process.
F
So
staff
will
incorporate
the
highlighted
work
items
into
the
housing
crisis
work
plan
and
the
next
up,
update
of
our
work
plan
will
be
to
the
community
and
economic
development
committee
in
may,
which
will
then
be
reported
back
out
to
the
city.
Council
staff
will
complete
further
analysis,
exploring
a
suspension
of
the
construction
taxes
and
return
to
city
council
later
this
spring
with
a
separate
item
with
those
recommendations.
F
S
Hi
claire
beekman
here
I'll
try
to
keep
this
short.
Thank
you
very
much
for
this
item.
It's
good.
We!
We
can
always
trust
goodwill.
They
do
good
work
and
good
luck.
How
this
program
can
be
helpful
in
the.
D
Future,
I
think,
blair,
I
think,
you're
on
8.2
we're
actually
on
8.1.
S
S
I
see
I
understand
okay.
Well,
maybe
I
can
ask
this
question
anyway
at
this
time.
Sorry
about
that.
My
question
was,
you
know
previous
items
we
were
talking
about.
You
know
the
future
of
housing
and
and
basically
the
the
subcontractor
issue.
Is
this
an
item
that
we
can?
I
know
the
city
of
san
jose
government
is
working
on
ideas
to
better
understand
how
to
address
the
future
of
the
subcontractor
issue.
S
Is
this
an
item
that,
in
a
way
that
we
can
talk
about
it
easier
and
better
in
our
future
and
better
understand
it,
and
thank
you.
F
T
T
I
would
have
done
a
pareto
which
would
have
shown
the
number
of
people
interviewed
or
companies
interviewed
versus
which
ones
some
priority
on
which
ones
was
the
most
impactful,
so
that
in
a
short
time
we
could
understand
how
many
we
were
handled.
But
thank
you
for
the
information.
C
Catalyze
sv
appreciate
the
report
from
jared
and
the
housing
department-
some
some
good
nuggets
in
here,
one
of
which
is
great
to
see
destination
home,
helping
support
the
city
and
getting
those
permits
reviewed
and
getting
that
process
quicker.
I
was
a
little
surprised.
I
wonder
if
it
goes
from
11
months
to
nine
months,
is
there
a
way
to
get
it
further
lower
than
that?
I
think
that
could
be
a
good
end,
and
so
I
wonder
if
there
are
any
council
members
of
the
mayor
who
want
to
delve
deeper
into
that
from
the
deus
right
now.
S
L
C
Developers
having
the
flexibility,
they
need
to
build
the
projects
and
that's
obviously,
a
very
important
outcome
for
us
as
a
city
to
be
able
to
build
the
most
number
of
homes
possible.
So
I'd
like
to
continue
to
see
the
city
incentivize
and
prioritize
affordable
projects
that
maximize
the
number
of
homes
and.
T
Thank
you,
the
one.
There
was
one
slide
that
said
it
had
in
it
the
construction,
taxes
from
100,
affordable
developments
and
one
of
them
one
of
the
four
said
commercial,
slash,
residential
mobile
home
park
tax.
T
I'm
I
know
I
know
I
should
have
found
out
what
this
was
ahead
of
time
and
I
apologize
I
don't
know,
but
I
do
have
a
question
about
that.
That
seems
like
a
pretty
large
number
compared
to
the
others,
and
it
would
be
nice
if
somebody
could
maybe
answer
why
or
just
explore
that,
because
that's
just
such
an
interesting
thing,
considering
that
we
don't
we're
not
really
building
any
mobile
home
parks.
So
anyway,
I'm
just
wondering
curious.
It's
an
oddity.
Thank
you
back
to.
D
R
Favorite
councilman,
yes,
yeah.
Thank
you
appreciate
the
report
from
staff.
Just
a
few
questions.
The
first
one
is,
you
know
it
was
cited
in
the
report
that
the
fees
were
suspend.
Some
of
the
taxes
were
suspended
from
92
to
2011.
and
I'm
curious
if
staff
dig
into
the
fact
as
to
whether
there
were
any
notable
noticeable
increases
in
developments
during
that
time,.
F
Thank
you
councilmember.
This
is
rachel
vanderbeen
from
the
housing
apart.
I
was
just
thinking
deeply.
So
during
I'm
just
trying
to
think.
During
that
period
of
time
we
did
have
significant,
affordable
housing
development
that
was
happening
so
yeah.
We
definitely.
We
definitely
had
a
period
of
time
where
there
were
hundreds
of
units
that
were
actually
moving
forward
and
being
built.
F
F
R
And
I
realized
that
it
may
be
difficult
to
isolate.
You
know
what
what
impact
the
taxes
had
or
the
suspension
the
taxes
had,
but
because
I
know
that
there
was
other
things
going
on.
I
think
back
and
back
during
that
time
we
likely
still
had
to
redevelop.
Well,
I
know
we
had
the
real
redevelopment
agency
sort
of
floating
around,
and
so
anyway,
I
suspect,
there's
other
reasons
for
that,
but
but
but
I
think
it'd
be
a
worthwhile
effort
to
dig
into
it.
R
L
We
did
really
in-depth
interviews.
You
know
they
were
often
an
hour
long.
So
there
were
a
lot
of
things
mentioned.
We
tried
to
highlight
the
ones
that
were
the
strongest
and
that
we
heard
from
from
multiple
individuals.
So
hopefully
that
kind
of
answers,
your
question,
but.
L
R
Okay,
all
right
very
cool.
The
other
question
I
had
is
I
I
submitted
a
memo
on
the
on
the
on
the
item
and
I'm
wondering
if
you
all
had
a
chance
to
review
it.
R
I
just
wanted
to
share
sort
of
the
spirit
of
it
is
that
you
know
I
come
to
know
that
some
of
the
areas
in
our
city
that
have
taken
a
lot
of
the
affordable
housing
have
traditionally,
maybe
not
the
case
now,
but
traditionally
have
been
the
areas
that
have
had
the
least
amount
of
investment
related
to
infrastructure
and
such,
and
so
I'm
curious,
if
you
think
it's
a
worthwhile
effort
to
as
you
go
back
and
explore
some
of
these
things,
including
the
suspension
of
fees.
R
F
Thank
you,
council,
member
for
the
question.
So
as
we
again
as
we
explore
this,
that
is
something
that
we
can
take
a
look
at.
I
think
that,
as
we,
I
guess
I
would
just
say
my
general
response
is,
as
we
consider
barriers
to
affordable
housing
development,
those
barriers,
and
this
fee
exemption,
I
would
just
say,
would
apply
broadly.
F
So
we
just
need
to
think
through
what
are
the
different
ways
that
we're
trying
to
encourage
the
development
of
affordable
housing
in
areas
where
there
might
not
have
been
historically
as
much
development
in
the
past.
And
so
we
need
to
kind
of
look
at
that
and
then
weigh
that
with
this
specific
policy
and
determine
if
it
would
make
sense
to
have
those
intersect.
R
You
know
I
have
questions
about
that,
even
but
if
we
do
that,
why
wouldn't
it
seems
to
me
that
we
should
explore
whether
it
warrants
doing
that
in
neighborhoods
that
maybe
have
traditionally
not
stepped
up
to
build
it
to
incentivize
non-profit
developers
to
go
out
into
those
spaces
where
normally
we
don't
have
affordable
housing,
and
that,
I
think
in
turn,
would
you
know,
create
a
city
in
which
every
pocket
of
the
city
is
doing
their
part
to
provide
a
space
for
people
to
be
living
at
all
income
levels?
And
so
thank
you.
R
Thank
you
for
that.
I
would
just
say
that
I'll
move
the
staff
recommendation
in
addition
to
my
memo
and
love
a
second
thank
you.
D
R
Yeah
I
mean
it
seems
to
me
the
spirit
of
staff's
memo
is
these:
are
the
things
they're
identifying
as
potential
barriers
they're
going
to
go
out
and
explore
some
of
the
stuff
and
really
do
the
work
on
it
and
so
yeah?
I
mean
I'm
open
to
anything
that
goes
down
that
road
of
exploring
and
sort
of
testing
the
feasibility
of
this
thinking,
right
as
it
relates
to
incentivizing
other
areas
that
normally
would
step
up.
R
And
I
think
it's
also
worth
saying
that
this
this
work
intersects
with
a
lot
of
other
stuff,
say
the
housing
element.
That's
going
to
be
coming
forward
later
and-
and
so
I
think,
there's
a
lot
of
interaction
that
I'm
sure
is
the
the
housing
staff
is
thinking
about.
So
I'd
love
to
see
that
at
some
point
but
yeah.
Thank
you.
D
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
I
had
a
couple
questions
about.
Oh,
let's
see
and
customer
comments.
Councilman.
I
Thank
you,
and
I
want
to
thank
you
for
this
detailed
report.
I
mean
the
level
of
understanding
of
all
the
issues
was
really
good
and
I,
like
the
recommendations,
michael,
my
question
is
about
one
item
and
I
know
chris
we've
talked
about
this
with
regards
to
other
projects,
but
I'm
happy
to
see
that
that
extra
staffing
helps
reduce
the
time
for
projects
to
get
entitled
from
what
was
11
months,
nine
months
right,
sort
of
a
hypothetical.
D
I
D
C
That's
total
process
time,
as
in
a
development
project,
comes
through
the
entitlement
process.
It
you
know,
there's
very
much
the
sort
of
back
and
forth
we're
providing
feedback,
the
developers
revising
their
plans,
so
it
doesn't
really
get
to
the
sort
of
the
the
chest
clock
idea
of
how
much
time
it's
spending
sort
of
outside.
D
Of
your
hands-
and
so
that's
that's
sort
of
the
other
part
of
this,
where
I
think
that
there's
probably
other
efficiencies.
C
But
you
know
we're
doing
everything.
D
I
Have
it
in-house
and
and
this
isn't
meant
as
a
as
a
criticism
of
any
way,
it's
just
a
question
in
terms
of
what
what
you
know
you've
got
the
extra
staff
so
you're,
implying
that
with
this
extra
staff,
you're
able
to
do
it
as
quickly
as
the
process
allows.
Given
the
back
and
forth
that
occurs
in
these
kinds
of
developments.
C
D
Many
of
the
steps,
if
it's
bypassing
all
of
the
secret
process,
then
certainly
that's
a
massive
time
saver
as
well,
so
so
there's
definitely
we
we've
seen
the
impact
of
state
law
as.
C
It
relates
to
affordable
housing,
but
you
know
development
is
still
very
much
this
process
and
it's
back
and
forth,
but
ultimately
drags.
I
That
timeline
out-
and
I
know
that
there's
so
many
things
on
this
list
that
affect
this-
and
it's
not
necessarily
what's
happening
in
in
in
the
planning
department.
That's
that's
the
primary
bottleneck.
I
just
know
that
I'm
I
get
frustrated.
I
talk
to
a
developer,
there's
a
project
that
I'm
excited
about
in
my
district
and
I
spoke
to
them
and
you
know
they
went
through
this
whole
thing
about.
I
What's
going
to
be
done,
you
get
outside,
they
said
so
so
when
one
of
the
last
unit's
going
to
be
ready,
oh
in
2030
and
I'm
thinking,
20
30..
So
I
mean-
and
I
know
that's
not
because
of
what's
happening
in
your
department,
but
it's
whatever
we
can
do
to
help
on
our
end,
so
that
all
the
things
that
they
have
to
go
through
for
funding
the
project
and
building
the
project
and
doing
the
work
is
really
the
you
know.
Things
are
out
of
our
control
are
really
the
things
that
are
holding
it
up.
D
Can
I
just
going
back
to
that
issue
on
the
expediter?
Are
we
pretty
satisfied
that
we've
we
squeezed
all
the
blood
we
can
get
out
of
that
turnip,
at
least
on
the
planning
side?
I
know
we're
not
in
there
yeah
I,
I
really
do
sort
of
having
kind
of
come
in
and
reviewed
that
process
pretty
closely
and
aligning
it
with
everything
else
that
is
available.
You
know
now
that
we're
sort
of
in
the
groove
on
state
law.
C
Sands,
a
lot
of
people
are
trying
to
figure
out
some
of
the
nuances
and
some
of
the
differences
and
what
applies
to
them
and
what
doesn't,
but
we're
in
that
kind
of
sweet
spot
right
now,
where
we've
done
enough
projects
that
we're
learning
and
we're
using
that
knowledge
to
our
advantage
to
move
these
projects
quickly,.
D
I
should
say
I
really
appreciate
all
the
work
that's
gone
into
this
memorandum
and
I
think
this
is
really
great
work.
Helping
us
identify
what
we
can
really
do
on
our
end
to
try
to
to
get
to
our
goal:
building
more
affordable
housing
faster.
D
L
Nothing
specific
like
that
in
terms
of
building
code
other
than
the
we
know,
we've
talked
about
the
parking
reduction
and
then
electrical
vehicle
charging.
Those
are
things
that
came
up
a
couple
times
in
terms
of
things
that
are
adding
costs,
yeah
stuff,
we're
doing
to
it
yeah
yeah,
so
so
those
were
ones
that
did
come
up.
D
L
I
would
add
often
times
they
are
able
to
get
around
some
of
those
with
the
state
density
bonus,
not
building
codes
specifically,
but
some
of
our
you
know
in
terms
of
setbacks
or
other
development
standards
that
we
require,
that
add
costs
they're
able
to
to
eliminate
some
of
those
through
state
density
right,
sometimes.
D
Towards
chicago
yeah
a
conversation
I
I
promise,
I
won't
go
too
far
off
on
a
tangent
on
this
one,
but
it
seems
as
though
you
know
prefabricated
housing
is
coming
a
long
way.
I
know
it's
still
developing,
but
there's
some
real
supply
challenges.
It
seems
every
factory's
got
way
on.
H
D
D
They've
got
a
lot
of
of
unemployment,
and
you
know
folks
who
need
jobs,
and
I
know
carpenters
would
love
to
be
hiring
some
of
those
taking
on
some
of
those
folks
you'll
build
at
a
factory
os
in
salinas,
for
example,
I'm
just
wondering
if
you
know
of
any
cities
that
are
out
there
or
might
be
interested
in
being
partners
too
on
deals
that
would
say
try
to
tell
an
investor
hey.
If
you
go
build
a
factory
we
will
come,
we've
got,
we've
got
x,
number
of
projects
that
could
go
build.
We
could
provide
this
demand.
D
You
guys
just
go
build
the
capacity,
so
we
can
pump
out
a
lot
more
of
these
prefabricated
units
and
hopefully
reduce
some
of
the
construction
cost
burden
on
our
affordable
builders.
Is
anybody
out
there
talking
about
stuff
like
that?
Or
is
this
a
crazy.
D
D
D
C
D
Really
make
the
difference?
Okay!
Well,
I
guess
maybe
I'll
just
go
off
on
my
own
and
and
nudge
around
with
some
of
that
I
mean
I
know
a
few
of
the
the
factory
builders
and
see
if
they'd
be
interested,
maybe
a
consortium
of
the
cities
coming
to
them
and
saying
we've
got
the
demand.
If
you
guys
just
build
it.
F
N
D
D
T
D
D
All
right
great,
thank
you
all
right.
It's
now
5
37.
Won't
we
keep
going
we'll
take
a
break
at
6.,
that's
acceptable!
All
right.
We
got
some
desire
to
follow
through.
Let's
see
how
we
can
do
it
item
8.2
is
a
funding
award
with
goodwill,
silicon
valley
for
the
san
jose
bridge
program.
D
I
don't
believe,
there's
a
presentation
on
this,
but
I
just
do
want
to
say
thank
you
to
kellyanne.
Oh,
there
is
reagan.
Okay,
kelly
and
reagan
are
here
and
thank
you
both
for
your
work
on
this.
This
is
a
I
think,
a
really
important
program
grateful
that
we're
able
to
expand
it.
Q
Thank
you
good
evening,
mayor
and
council
members,
I'm
kelly
hemphill
and
I'm
the
homelessness
response
manager
with
the
housing
department.
I'm
joined
here
with
reagan,
henninger
who's
also
with
the
housing
department,
deputy
director
all
right.
Q
Q
The
sj
bridge
employment
program
is
a
human-centered
effort
and
will
serve
up
to
150
individuals.
The
target
population
is
individuals
living
in
encampments
right
now.
The
focus
is
people
living
along
the
guadalupe
river
in
columbus
park.
Guadalupe
river
park
in
the
guadalupe
gardens
encampment
women
and
survivors
of
gender-based
violence
will
also
be
prioritized.
Q
There
are
two
phases
of
the
sj
bridge
program:
rapid
employment
and
training
for
living
wage
employment
participants
will
initially
be
enrolled
in
the
rapid
employment
phase
and
become
goodwill
employees.
They
will
work
a
15-week
program
20
hours
per
week,
earning
18.50
an
hour
as
participants.
They
will
work
with
life,
moves
to
quickly
move
into
temporary
shelter
options,
including
motels
and
interim
housing,
while
planning
for
long-term
housing.
Q
Q
Being
a
participant-centered
program,
it
should
be
noted
that
the
phases
of
employment
and
the
phases
of
housing
appear
separate,
but
some
participants
may
advance
more
quickly
than
others.
This
contract
is
all
about
employment,
but
goodwill
is
committed
to
working
with
the
housing
provider.
Life
moves
to
ensure
housing
is
a
priority.
Q
D
Great,
thank
you
so
much
kelly.
Let's
go
to
the
public.
S
All
right,
thank
you,
claire
beekman,
here
is
this
item
that
thank
you
for
the
work
of
you
know
the
goodwill
for
all
these
years
and
that
we
can
really
trust
them.
I
think,
and
that
this
sounds
like
a
really
good,
interesting
program
and
as
we're
heading
out
to
the
six
o'clock
hour,
I
hope
I
can
quickly
remind
the
importance
of
in
trying
to
find
the
future
of
you
know
finding
good
programs
for
for
house
home
unhoused
and,
for
you
know,
housing
itself
for
themselves.
S
I
really
hope,
as
every
other
major
metropolitan
city
of
california
has
been
studying
mixed
income
ideas,
that
san
jose
can
really
want
to
look
into
it
and
how
it
can
be
of
help
in
building
our
affordable
housing
for
our
future
and
what
it
can
offer
in
terms
of
flexibility
and
choices.
Thanks
a
lot.
M
D
Okay,
well,
I
think
what
you're
hearing
in
our
in
the
absence
of
comments
is
support.
I
I
just
wanted
to
say
thank
you
for
what
you're
doing
to
make
this
happen
to
make
it
expand.
I
think
this
is
some
of
the
most
important
work
we
can
be
doing
in
the
city,
it's
great
to
see
the
early
results
of
this
program,
and
it's
going
to
be
really
important.
D
Now
that
we
got
housing
for
these,
for
these
participants
and
these
clients,
you
know,
I
recall,
being
out
there
cleaning
up
with
a
couple
different
cleaning,
crews
and
and
continuing
to
meet
the
same
individuals
who
are
saying,
I'm
still
not
housed,
and
that
was
so
frustrating
to
hear.
These
are
folks
who
had
been
working
several
months
and
and
not
getting
housed.
So
I'm
glad
that
we've
now
got
housing
clearly
attached
to
this
program.
D
I
wanted
to
ask
a
question
about
the
80
goal
that
they'll
be
successfully
placed.
Is
that
by
that
you
mean
80
in
permanent
housing,
because
I
assumed
everybody
was
getting
at
least
a
transitional
placement
yeah
or
in
replacement.
I
should
say.
Q
D
C
Yeah,
I
can.
I
can
answer
that
question.
My
name
is
pablo
garcia
silicon
valley,
how's
it
going
great.
First
of
all,
thank
you
guys
for
for
the
work
on
this
and
and
for
you
know,
giving
it
the
attention
that
it
needs.
But,
in
response
to
your
question,
the
80
of
the
total
amount
of
people
that
we
serve
is
going
to
be
those
folks
that
are
placed
into
some
sort
of
housing,
whether
that
is
emergency
housing
or
into
a
transitional
as
well.
D
Okay
and
pablo
really
appreciate
the
work
that
you
and
goodwill
are
doing
here,
but
I
had
assumed
that
when
we,
when
we
crafted
the
expansion
of
this
program,
that
we're
going
to
ensure
that
everybody
would
get
housing
if
they
were
working,
can
you
help
me
understand
better?
Why
we're
at
an
80
goal,
you're.
Q
D
D
D
Okay,
great
thanks
for
clarifying
for
that
and
good
to
have
life
moves
involved
as
well.
Good
will's
been
a
great
partner,
so
thanks
again
pablo
to
you
and
your
team
all
right.
Let's
vote!
Oh
I'm
sorry,
councilman.
A
Thank
you.
I
also
just
want
to
thank
the
the
team
for
the
work
to
bring
us
that
to
this
point,
where
we're
actually
awarding
somebody-
and
this
is
this-
is
perfect.
This
is
wonderful.
I
just
have
a
question
about
how
we're
going
to
integrate.
A
I
heard
loud
and
clear,
because
my
ears
always
perk
up
when
you,
because
I
know
this
is
something
that
you've
all
been
working
internally
to
integrate
survivors
into
these
programs,
because
we
all
know
that
over
reliance
on
on
their
on
a
partner,
intimate
partner,
their
income
stunts
the
the
the
plans
for
that
survivor
right.
It
doesn't
allow
for
the
survivor
to
leave,
and
so
it's
important
to
have
workforce
development.
Then
it's
important
to
have
a
source
of
income,
and
so
how
will
you
be
integrating
those
survivors
into
into
this
fold?
Q
I'm
not
sure
if
pablo
wants
to
speak
to
that,
but
I
think
that
we
will
do
significant
outreach
and
work
with
our
our
our
partners
within
the
gender-based
violence
agencies
and
we're
already
working
with
them,
and
I
think
that
this
would
be
a
great
new
resource
for
it
for
them,
especially
the
training
piece.
But
I
don't
know
if
pablo
wants
to
speak
to
that.
As
far
as
the
details.
C
More
importantly,
is
working
with
folks
to
empower
them
to
be
able
to
transition
into
living
wage
employment
on
their
own,
providing
the
type
of
training
that
will
that
will
place
them
on
the
pathway
to
not
only
a
career
but
to
a
better
quality
of
life.
C
So
what
we're
looking
at
is
connecting
with
and
doing
our
outreach
to
some
of
the
places
that
are
that
are
serving
serving
individuals
that
are
survivors
of
domestic
violence,
particularly
places
like
the
ywca.
A
Yeah,
that's
definitely
a
good
agency.
I
guess
I
you
know
this
is
part
of
maybe
something
that
you
can
take
into
account
as
of
now,
because
it's
very
difficult
to
see
some
of
these
survivors
on
the
streets
they're
not
out
there
right.
These
are
women
and
and
men
who
are
in
inadequate
housing
right,
so
they're
living
in
the
living
room
of
somebody's
apartment
or
home,
and
so
that
is
also
inadequate
housing,
and
I
would
say
that
we
could.
A
We
should
qualify
them
in
some
way
slightly
differently
than
what
we
would
qualify.
What
we
typically
would
think
of
an
unhoused
person,
and
so
with
that
in
mind,
I
think
that
you
may
be
able
to
have
a
lot
more
success
with
with
those
folks
coming
into
the
program.
Otherwise,
you
know
if
they
have
a
roof
over
their
head,
whether.
Q
A
Whether
it's
their
car
or
or
just
an
inadequate
living
arrangement
that
they
won't
be
able
to
take
advantage
of
this
right
because
they
won't
meet
that
criteria,
and
I
would
I
would
also
encourage
you
to
attend
some
of
our
gender-based
violence
joint
meetings
with
the
county
to
see
how
we've
been
working
with
folks
and
and
and
and
have
an
opportunity
to
have
all
of
those
agencies
around
around
the
table.
A
And
that
way
you
can
have
that
one
conversation
we
can
all
help
figure
out,
maybe
some
of
the
things
that
that
haven't
been
sorted
out
yet
in
terms
of
details,
but
that
I
can
do
that
offline
with
you
both.
Thank
you.
D
Thank
you
any
other
questions
or
comments.
D
D
F
Be
serving
that
that
population
and
secondarily
I
do
want
to
just
call
out
that
we,
through
our
digital
inclusion
program,
which.
N
B
A
There,
thank
you
trishan.
You
know
what
it's
you
just
reminded
me
of
something
that
I
wanted
to
that's
an
observation.
I
had
about
the
workshops
and
the
career,
training
and
placement
where
I
think
that
there
there
might
be
an
opportunity
for
for
additional
digital
literacy
training
there,
and
it
sounds
like
you're
already
connected
to
to
the
network
that
is
addressing
this
digital
divide,
so
so
great
great
great
work.
Thank
you.
D
Thank
you
yeah.
I
actually
had
an
opportunity
to
visit
the
goodwill
site
over
on
67th
street
where
they
have,
but
you
know
that
main
site
they're
doing
some
of
the
digital
literacy
training
with
their
clients.
It's
really
great
work.
So
again,
thank
you,
trish
and
pablo
for
all
the
great
work
you
do
all
right,
other
questions
or
comments
all
right.
Let's
both
stand
on
the
motion.
Jimenez.
C
D
O
Okay,
good
afternoon,
mayor
council
and
vice
mayor,
michael
brio,
deputy
director
of
city-wide
planning
and
pbce
so
item
8.4
is
a
outlines,
a
a
high-level
scope
of
work
budget
and
timeline
to
complete
a
study
for
the
monterey
corridor.
Let
me
step
back
for
a
moment.
O
Also,
historically
was
an
area
that
had
businesses
that
often
serve
travelers
on
what
was
once
u.s
101,
and
in
that,
in
that
quarter
we
should
work
with
property
owners,
the
the
county
and
other
open
space
and
open
space,
advocacy
groups
and
whatnot
in
the
area
to
sort
of
develop,
come
up
with
some
recommendations
and
what
are
non-residential
uses
that
would
be
appropriate
in
that
that
slice
between
monterey
highway
and
coyote
creek
uses
that
would
be
compatible
with
the
trail
and
also
with
the
environmental
objectives
of
preserving
coyote
valley
for
for
our
diverse
community
going
forward.
O
So
what
you
have
before
you
in
this
memo
just
outlines
at
a
high
level,
the
scope
and
timeline
the
timeline
is
estimated
to
be
between.
I
think
it's
18
and
20
months
to
complete
the
process
once
we
are.
If,
if
and
when
we
are
given
funding
to
do
the
work
and
as
estimated
budget
of
475
000,
we
would
need
money
out.
Council
allocate
funding
for
us
to
do
this
work.
That
budget
may
change.
O
O
I
just
want
to
know
acknowledge
that
there
was
a
little
confusion.
The
memo
did
say,
explorer
compatible
agriculture
uses
again.
I
want
to
make
it
clear
we're
not
just
looking
at
agricultural
uses
we're
looking
at
it,
we'll
be
looking
at
a
wide,
a
pallet
or
array
of
different
uses
again
that
are
non-residential
that
would
be
compatible
with
both
the
coyote
creek
park
chain
and
the
environmental
preservation
goals
that
we
have
in
coyote
valley.
O
I
also
want
to
acknowledge
the
mayor
from
council
member
jimenez.
We
support
the
recommendations
in
this
memo.
Many
of
these
things
we
have
are
doing
now
or
plan
on
doing.
I
do
want
to
note.
I
have
one
clarifying
question
on
in
this
memo
and
item
number
four:
to
evaluate
the
feasibility
of
developing
complete
street
design,
recommendations
for
monterey,
road
that
support
traffic
safety
for
people
and
for
wildlife.
O
This
one
item
is
not
something
that
at
least
the
way
I
understand
it.
We're
proposing
to
do.
What
we
are
proposing
to
do
is
coordinate
this
effort
with
the
cody
valley
master
plan
and
looking
at
how
a
wildlife
corridor
would
be
accommodated
across
monterey
highway
and
through
the
monterey
corridor
area,
as
we
think
about
different
land
uses
to
ensure
that
there
is
that
axis
between
the
coastal
range
and
the
album
range
for
wildlife.
O
D
F
F
C
Norm
madioni
on
behalf
of
the
property
owners
along
the
corridor.
I
wanted
to
emphasize
the
reason
for
the
study
that
the
properties
along
the
east
side
of
the
monterey
corridor
do
have
unique
characteristics:
circumstances
that
differentiate
them
from
most
of
the
properties
to
the
west.
On
the
other
side
of
monterey
road.
C
C
Good
evening,
honorable
mayor
and
council
members,
thank
you
for
allowing
me
to
address
you
this
evening.
My
name
is
chris
marchese.
I
represent
my
family
that
owns
a
piece
of
property
along
the
monterey
corridor.
I
thank
you
for
the
consideration
of
this
study
would
appreciate
you
supporting
it
and
the
funding.
C
C
I
just
want
everyone
to
remember
that
the
folks
along
the
corridor
have
been
there
a
long
time
we're
not
newcomers
we're
not
speculators,
we're
not
developers
we're
just
longtime
san
jose
folks.
We
have
a
lot
to
bring
to
the
table
and
a
lot
to
contribute
and
we're
happy
to
assist.
Thank
you
very
much.
S
C
Good
afternoon
everybody,
my
name
is
sean
who
I
represent
cloudy
creek
golf
club.
I
think
during
the
pandemic.
S
Last
year
we
hosted
130
000
runs
of
golf.
We
have
a.
C
Strong
local
membership
and
we
hosted
many
weddings
birthday
parties.
You
know
for.
S
C
C
Of
the
unique
beautiful
open
space
in
kali
valley-
and
we
really
are
proud-
we
really
applaud
the
effort
from
the
city
to
conduct
this
conduct.
This
study,
hopefully
we'll.
C
S
E
S
And
swimming
it
same.
D
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
sean
and
thank
you
to
marchese
mr
sasso,
mr
mataoni
and
helen
marcusio,
and
for
engaging
continue
to
engage
with
us.
Obviously,
it's
very
important
that
we
be
engaged
with
you.
I
support
councilwoman
jimenez's
memorandum,
council
member.
L
Good
evening
brian
schmidt,
with
green
foothills,
we
and
several
other
organizations
submitted
a
comment
letter
about
the
corridor
study.
It
should
be
in
your
packet,
and
our
statistics
showed
370
supporters
of
green
foothills
and
protect.
Coyote
valley
wrote
in
to
ask
that,
as
this
study
moves
forward,
it
ensures
no
harm,
comes
to
wildlife
in
coyote
valley,
drawing
a
lesson
from
history.
L
This
is
our
concern
that,
after
the
tremendous
achievement
from
all
of
you
in
protecting
north
and
mid
county
valley,
that
a
quarter
study
leading
to
environmental
impacts
along
monterey,
road
could
snatch
at
least
a
partial
environmental
defeat
from
this
victory.
That
is
so
close.
Coyote
valley
is
a
crucial
functioning
but
fragile
and
impaired
wildlife.
Linkage
area
between
the
santa
cruz
mountains
and
the
mount
hamilton
range
monterey
road
is
the
weakest
link
with
more
animals
killed,
trying
to
cross
it
than
highway
101.
L
F
F
Thank
you
good
evening,
mr
mayor
council,
members
lena
ein
with
the
santa
clara
valley,
open
space
authority.
F
Road
will
play
an
important
role,
both
in
contributing
to
the
local
economy
and
supporting
the
natural
infrastructure
so
important
for
regional
climate
resilience.
We
emphasize
the
importance
of
considering
alignment
of
agricultural
uses
with
county
ag
zoning,
maintaining
wildlife
movement
across
monterey,
road
and
minimizing
disturbances
to
wildlife,
considering
complete
streets,
design
methods
and
impacts
of
high-speed
rail
and
to
best
bring
all
important
elements
and
expertise.
Together,
we
ask
for
engaging
consultants
that
have
familiarity
with
petty
valley,
land
use,
agriculture
and
the
local
ag
economy.
S
All
right,
laura
beekman
here
thanks
a
lot
for
this
item.
I
I
hope
you'll
have
time
to
talk
about
8.3.
S
Does
that
item
still
need
to
be
talked
about
with
that
mentioned
for
this
item
8.4
just
to
thank
you
for
it
and
a
reminder
that
the
city
of
davis
is
worked
really
hard
to
create,
really
open
and
accountable
practices
for
the
future
of
their
wildlife
trails
and
and
and
such
with
the
surveillance
and
technology
that
will
be
along
wildlife
trails
and
it
can
be.
S
You
know,
the
technology
and
data
collection
can
be
an
important
concept
in
how
you're
going
to
be
developing
the
future
of
coyote
valley
and
and
to
have
these
good
examples
from
the
city
of
davis.
I
hope
it
can
be
of
help
to
yourselves
in
all
the
ways
we'll
be
defining
the
future
of
a
coyote
valley
area.
Thank
you.
D
Thank
you
all
right
where
I
left
off.
As
I
said,
I
was
inclined
to
support
councilmember
jimenez's
memo,
so
let's
go
to
councilman.
R
Yeah
thanks
mayor,
I
thought
the
public
comment
tony
was
talking
about,
was
me,
but
glad
to
hear
that
there's
a
lot
of
interest
on
the
topic
just
wanted
to
quickly
thank
sean
chris,
mr
mattiani,
mr
sasso
of
co,
of
course,
the
open
space
authority,
and
especially
the
city
staff.
R
You
know
some
time
back
and
I'm
not
sure
if
folks
are
aware,
but
I
I
twisted
chris's
arm
to
get
out
there
and
meet
with
some
of
the
property
owners
and
and
staff's
been
just
exceptional
in
the
way
they've
dealt
with
just
collaboration
with
a
lot
of
property
owners
along
with
some
of
the
environmental
groups,
and
so
I
just
wanted
to
say
thank
you
very
much,
chris
and
team
and
michael
for
making
time
for
coming
out
and
for
shepherding
us
through
this
through
this
process.
R
I
also
wanted
to
say
that
I
I
want
everyone
to
know
that
this
memo
as
an
example
that
I
submitted
was
written
in
coordination
and
working
together
in
collaboration
with
one
property
owners
with
environmental.
You
know
advocates
and
such,
and
so
we
want
to
go
through
this
process
in
a
very
purposeful
way
in
which
we
bring
forward
the
ideas,
the
thoughts,
the
considerations,
the
concerns
from
everyone,
that's
impacted
and
that
lives
and
resides
and
cares
about
coyote
valley.
R
And
so
I
want
to
assure
folks
that,
as
we
go
down
this
process
that
we're
going
to
bring
everyone
together
and
we're
hopefully
going
to
reach
a
resolution
and
a
study
that
really
creates
a
place
that
we
all
can
be
proud
of,
and
it
can
really
live
up
to
that.
What
mr
sasso
said
is
the
southern
gateway
to
the
city.
R
The
only
other
thing
I
would
say
is-
and
a
few
folks
have
mentioned
that,
but
this
is
for
you
mayor-
is
that
obviously
the
budget's
you
know
kicking
off
already
and-
and
so
I
think
it's
going
to
be
important
to
figure
out
how
we
can
you
know
comb
through
the
budget
to
see
if
we
can
find
some
money
and
allocate
the
proper
funds
to
get
the
study
going,
because
I
I
hate
for
something
to
not
be
in
the
works
and
then
I'm
out
of
office
in
a
few
years
and
then
it
sort
of
get
you
know,
circumvented
or
sort
of
sort
of
stalled
if
you
will,
but
anyhow,
I
think
it's
gonna
be
very
important
moving
forward,
but
thank
you,
everyone
for
coming
and
I'll
move
staffs.
R
Well,
my
memo
that
accepts
that
staff's
recommendation.
So
I
appreciate
a
second
thank
you.
Second,
second.
D
Okay-
and
we
will
be
certainly
discussing
the
budget
robustly
next
week
and
subsequent
weeks,
so
I
know
this
will
be
a
top
conversation
all
right,
council
member
arenas.
F
Thank
you.
I
just
want
to
thank
mr
sasso
and
mr
marchese
for
coming
here.
We
committed
to
a
study,
and
now
the
study
is
moving
forward,
and
I
know
that
staff
will
not
hesitate
in
bringing
you
involved
in
the
conversation,
because
your
input
with
the
historical
background
and
also
the
the
properties
that
you've
owned
and
developed
and
nurtured
for
so
many
years
and
so
many
generations,
your
input
is
so
important
to
how
we
move
forward
with
coyote
valley.
F
D
Okay-
and
I
should
note,
given
the
cost
of
the
study,
that
we
should
all
become
consultants
when
we're
done
with
this
gig
all
right
we're.
I
think
those
are
all
the
comments.
D
Okay,
let's
let's
vote
then
on
councilman's
motion,
jimenez.
F
D
T
We
wish
to
thank
the
city
manager,
mcguire
and
the
san
jose
environmental
services
team
for
listening
to
the
community
and
extending
the
time
for
public
comment
on
the
existing
building
electrification
report.
We
hope
that
the
staff
will
assure
that
active
community
engagement
from
the
residents
and
parties
who
had
limited
input
previously
is
obtained.
Please
assure
that
private
housing
providers,
homeowners
and
small
business
inputs
are
obtained,
included
and
fully
addressed.
T
We
hope
that
the
council
members
will
also
assure
that
they
are
informing
their
residents
as
councilman
deb
davis
did
with
her
san
jose
mercury
news
letter.
It
is
especially
important
to
engage
pg
e
to
ensure
the
grid
in
establishing
an
existing
established
infrastructure
can
support
any
of
the
proposals
being
considered.
If
pg
e
is
not
engaged,
then
any
study
results
are
not
based
in
reality
and
may
not
be
doable.
T
It's
important
that
the
full
power
cycle
be
reviewed
as
part
of
this
activity,
not
just
appliance
efficiency
and
the
staff
needs
to
examine
the
proposals,
including
panel
and
electrical
upgrades.
Just
not
appliance
replacements,
older
homes
may
need
to
have
their
electrical
panel
and
service
upgrade.
Currently,
upgrading
electric
services
can
have
month-long
delays
again.
Thank
you,
city
manager,
mcguire
and
the
san
jose
environmental
services
team.
For
extending
the
public
comment.
We
appreciate
it.
Thank
you.
