Thank
You
mayor
I'm
very
excited
to
introduce
the
brand
my
school
wind,
ensemble
ensemble.
The
20
students
performing
today
represent
the
Branum
high
wind
ensemble,
the
premier
music
group,
at
Branham
high
school.
The
ensemble
includes
some
of
the
best
music
students
in
the
Campbell
Union
High
School,
District
and
beyond.
Many
of
these
magnificent
student
musicians
have
been
members
of
County
State
and
even
national
honor
bands
led
by
band
director
Chris
Knowles,
the
Branham
high
wind
ensemble
saw
ensemble,
has
performed
across
California
and
in
Hawaii
were
lucky
to
have
them
perform
for
us
today.
C
A
That
was
tremendous
all
right.
Well,
we've
gotten
off
to
a
great
start.
Thanks
to
the
Branum
High
School
Wind
Ensemble,
we
are
joined
by
the
Anderson
Virtual
Learning
Academy.
Thank
you
for
those
of
you
who
are
joining
us
from
the
Academy
I
think
in
the
back.
If
you
wouldn't
mind
standing
and
lead
us
in
the
Pledge
of
Allegiance.

A
A
The
largest
Thanksgiving
Day
turkey
shot
in
the
universe
and
it
was
founded
in
2005.
It
was
an
idea
that
came
from
Carl
and
his
wife,
Leslie
I,
think
as
they
were,
driving
through
a
town,
I
think
was
Sacramento
and
they
saw
a
race
going
on
Thanksgiving
Day.
He
said
why
can't
we
do
this
and
raise
some
money
and
my
gosh?
Have
they
done
it?
Now?
A
A
So,
in
the
first
fourteen
years
that
has
enabled
2.9
million
pounds
of
food
to
be
delivered
to
hungry
families,
60,000
vision,
screenings
and
4,000
pairs
of
glasses
for
children
and
3738
individuals
placed
into
affordable
housing.
That
is
quite
a
legacy,
so
Carl.
Thank
you
for
all
your
leadership.
Could
you
please
say
a
few
words.
E
Well
mayor,
thank
you.
People
usually
have
the
good
sense.
Never
do
entrust
me
with
a
microphone,
but
I
recognize.
I
now
have
452
seconds
left.
We
want
to
thank
the
city
of
San
Jose,
the
mayor
council
members
and
the
citizens
of
San
Jose
for
supporting
this
effort
for
a
community
charity
run
and
walk
where,
on
a
day
of
thanks,
we
remember
that
there
are
folks
much
Meteor
than
the
people
who
are
blessed
to
be
in
this
room
at
City
Hall.
E
Today,
our
goal
this
year
is
mission,
1
million
it's
to
raise
and
donate
1
million
dollars

five
great
local
nonprofits,

the
Bay
Area
Second
Harvest
Foodbank
Silicon
Valley,

Food
Bank
of
Santa
Cruz
County,
the
Silicon
Valley
housing
trust
represented
today
by
Kevin's
wick,
the
health
trust
and
the
healthier
Kids
Foundation
represented
by
Kathleen
King,
whose
car
broke
down
four
blocks
away.
So
our
proceeds
this
year
will
go
to
getting
Kathleen
a
new
car.
E
The
word
that
we
all
want
is
impact
the
impact
if
we
hit
our
goals.
This
year
alone
is
five
hundred
and
twenty
thousand
more
healthy
meals
for
Second
Harvest
Foodbank.
Four
hundred
thousand
healthy
meals
for
the
food
bank
in
Santa,
Cruz
thirty,
one
hundred
treatment
plans
for
people
with
chronic
diseases
through
the
health
trust,
three
thousand
vision
and
hearing
screenings
just
for
kids
and
San
Jose
schools
alone
through
the
healthier
Kids
Foundation
and
three
hundred
homeless
people
securing
sustainable
homes
through
our
Housing
Trust
Silicon
Valley
I'll
end
with
this.
A
A
A
All
right
so
vote,
actually
yeah
I'll,
just
pull
the
item.
2.5
and
perhaps
I
can
be
all
wrapped
up
on
the
council.
Travel
report.
I
got
on
a
plane
about
a
week
and
a
half
ago
to
go
to
Copenhagen
to
represent
the
city,
one
with
Kerry
Romanow,
the
c40
organization,
which
is
sort
of
the
premier
global
climate
organization
for
climate
action
and
cities,
was
presenting
a
an
award
along
with
Bloomberg
philanthropies
to
the
city,
San
Jose,
recognizing
us,
as
well
as
a
couple
of
other
cities
for
our
progress
on
the
American
seas.
A
I,
unfortunately,
could
not
stay
for
the
press
conference
that
we
were
having
with
several
other
mayors
or
any
of
the
award
events
or
the
rest
of
the
conference,
because
I
stayed
there
for
a
night
and
the
next
morning
heard
about
the
blackouts
and
jumped
on
a
plane
and
came
home.
But
I
did
enjoy
a
wonderful
45
minute
jaunt
through
the
city
on
the
way
to
the
airport.
A
So,
unfortunately,
Carrie
was
there
to
receive
the
accolades
from
the
city
and
I
just
want
the
council
to
know
that
the
hard
work
that
so
many
are
putting
in
here
has
really
is
really
starting
to
attract
global
interest
and
setting
the
standard
for
the
rest
of
the
country
to
follow.
Alright
I'd
ask
if
that
could
be
included
in
the
motion.
Council,
more
cameras,
I.
F
G
Well,
good
afternoon,
mayor
members
of
the
City
Council,
my
name
is
Jim
Shannon
I'm,
the
budget
director
I,
am
joined
here
on
the
dais
by
Bonnie
Duong,
our
deputy
budget
director
Bryce
ball,
our
operating
budget
coordinator
and
Cindy
Banda,
our
financial
status
coordinator,
we're
here
to
kind
of
walk
through
the
2018-2019
annual
report.
I
want
to
really
thank
all
of
the
folks
in
the
budget
office
in
addition
of
those
folks
here,
but
also
Claudia
Chang,
our
deputy
budget
director
and
Enrique
deonda.
G
G
So
I'm
gonna
provide
a
brief
overview
of
the
city's
revenues
and
expenditures
when
when
compared
to
the
the
actuals,
this
complies
with
the
city
charter,
which
requires
us
to
come
before
you
90
days
after
the
close
of
the
fiscal
year
to
report
on
how
we
did,
and
so
we
will
be
doing
that
today.
It
provides
a
technical
comparison
to
budget
actuals.
G
It
also
combines
looks
at
the
comparison
of
estimated
actual
ending
fund
balances
for
all
funds
and
provides
a
summary
of
the
2018-2019
year-end
reserves
by
fund,
based
on
this
analysis
of
prior
performance
and
updated
information
that
we
have
for
the
current
fiscal
year,
including
pass
trucks
from
the
city
council.
The
and
report
also
recommends
a
number
of
budget
adjustments
for
1920.
G
So
for
1819
we
had
a
good
year
revenues
performed
generally.
As
expected,
we
had
assumed
some
moderate
economic
growth.
You
know
slow
to
moderate
and
we
were
pretty
close
to
those
estimates,
so
those
were
good.
We
have
good
economic
indicators
that
I'll
go
forward
through
you
a
little
later
regarding
employment,
construction
activity,
housing
on
the
expenditure
side,
we
also
met
expectations,
whether
they're
generally
end
of
the
year
within
or
below
budget.
G
The
general
fund
has
a
small
additional
surplus
of
fund
balance
where
revenues
came
in
well,
but
above
estimated
levels,
and
we
had
some
savings
on
the
expenditure
side
and
we'll
walk
through
how
we
allocate
out
that
there
are
also
a
number
of
actions
to
recognize
grants
and
reimbursements
address
needs
and
some
special
on
capital
funds
and
then
address
a
few
urgent
fiscal
and
program
needs
in
the
general
fund.
That
I
will
walk
through
a
later.
G
First
talk
a
little
bit
about
just
a
few
of
the
key
economic
factors
that
influence
the
city's
budget,
one
of
the
ones
being
the
unemployment
rate.
As
you
can
see
here,
we've
had
a
nice
long
downward
path.
In
the
unemployment
rate,
we
ended
June
2019
at
2.7
percent,
which
beat
the
prior
year's
rate
of
2.9
percent.
That
unemployment
rate
is
about
is
still
there
as
at
the
end
of
August.
We
were
at
at
that
same
2.7
percent,
so
this
is
good
I
think
this
tells
us
that
we
are.
G
G
The
median
price
of
single-family
homes
is
shown
on
this
graph
here,
which
is
also
kind
of
talks
about
the
history
of
where
we've
been,
and
a
little
bit
of
the
recent
past,
where
we
saw
median
single-family
home
sales
peak
in
May
of
2018,
and
it's
been
trending
down
a
little
bit
ever
since
then
we
factored
that
into
our
your
investments
for
1819,
as
well
as
our
preliminary
projections
for
1920.
So
we're
going
to
keep
an
eye
on
this.
You
know,
I'm
housing
is
one
of
the
leading
in
indicators.
G
G
G
One
of
things
I
want
to
point
out
is
the
continuing,
steady
growth
of
property
and
sales
tax
sales
tax.
You
know
had
a
little
bit
of
that
spike
there
in
1819,
because,
as
you
may
remember,
we
had
some
of
the
activity
that
should
have
been
booked
in
seventeen.
Eighteen
was
instead
booked
in
1819.
So
you
see
that
a
little
bit
of
a
peak
up
there
and
you
know
so-
property
tax
and
sales
tax
goes
so
goes
the
city's
revenues
generally.
G
Those
are
by
far
our
largest
and
those
are
the
ones
that
we
make
sure
that
we
try
to
get
those
as
accurate
as
possible.
A
couple
other
interesting
ones
are
the
utility
tax,
which
is
not
as
economically
sensitive
morr
generated,
based
on
the
rates
that
are
provided
to
customers
and,
more
importantly,
the
customers.
G
Talking
about
our
fund
balance
in
the
general
fund,
so
we
ended
the
year
with
a
gross
fund
balance
of
355
million.
So
it's
about
seventy
five
point:
four
million
above
the
estimate
that
we
used
to
adopt
the
2019
2020
budget,
and
it's
comprised
of
a
couple
of
key
things
here.
So
one
of
them
is
we
had
year-end
sale
proceeds
related
to
the
fire
training
center.
G
As
you
might
recall,
we
had
the
authorization
for
that
purchase
and
sale
agreement
earlier,
but
that
sale
didn't
close
until
the
end
of
June
and
so
because
of
that,
even
though
we
recognized
that
money,
which
was
about
I,
think
thirty
thirty
seven
million
and
put
that
into
a
reserve
for
future
for
the
future
relocation
of
that
site.
That
money
was
not
rebooted
into
nineteen
twenty,
so
it
shows
up
as
additional
fund
balance,
even
though
that's
really
restricted
for
the
use
of
replacing
that
site.
G
We
also
have
to
recognize
that
the
development
fee
program
had
additional
revenues
and
expenditures
savings.
That
is
part
of
that.
Seventy
five
point:
four
million,
but
as
again
as
I'll
talk
about
in
the
next
slide
is
are
restricted
to
development
fee
program
uses,
and
then
we
had
a
pretty
significant
chunk
of
personal
services
savings.
You
know
more
than
anybody.
We
typically
have
as-
and
there
were
a
bit
related
to
the
pre-funding
of
retirement
that
we
have
done
for
the
last
number
of
years,
although
we're
not
doing
that
in
nineteen
twenty.
G
So
when
we,
when
the
city
goes
and
pre
funds,
the
retirement
we
get
a
little
bit
of
a
discount
on
the
overall
contribution
to
the
retirement
system
by
you
know
fronting
some
cash
borrowing
a
little
bit
through
trans
participation
notes,
and
then
we
pay
ourselves
back
over
the
course
of
the
year
through
the
payroll
process.
You
know,
as
we
have
developed
the
number
of
tiers,
the
different
accounting
regulations
around
retirement,
the
different
retirement
rates.
G
That
process
has
become
more
calm,
complex
and
we
need
to
be
conservative
throughout
the
year
as
as
those
that
pay
back
is
going
on,
and
so
we
we
were
tracking
would
look
to
be
a
little
bit
high
throughout
the
throughout
1819.
We
knew
we
weren't
going
to
end
all
that
high,
but
it
was
tough
for
us
to
estimate
what
that
actual
fund
balance
was
going
to
be
related
to
personal
services.
G
So
we
had
a
little
bit
extra
this
year
than
we
typically
otherwise
would
would
have
again
that's
a
problem
we
won't
have
in
nineteen
twenty,
because
when
we
did
the
analysis
for
the
forecast
for
1920
that
pre-funding
didn't
really
pencil
out
and
so
it'd
be
much
more
straightforward
process
this
year
for
the
payroll
deductions
for
retirement.
So
when
you
kind
of
get
the
end
of
it
as
I'll
show
you
here,
our
real
fund
balance
is
really
twenty-seven
point,
eight
point
four
million,
which
is
how
we
will
walk
through
the
allocation
here.
G
And
so,
let's
see
this
summarizes
the
the
different
categories
of
how
the
fund
balance
is
outlook
allocated
all
the
the
actions
we
do
here
to
allocate
general
fund
fund
balances,
guided
by
City
Council
policy
1-8,
where
we're
first,
we
look
at
what
are
those
things
that
are
required
to
go
to
specific
uses
that
we
that
we
have
to
do
so.
Those
are
the
development
fee
program.
G
Reconciliation
I
talked
about
earlier,
the
rebate
of
the
fire
train,
Center
replacement,
and
then
we
have
a
variety
of
miscellaneous
free
budgets
and
cleanup
actions
to
carry
forward
stuff
that
began
or
that
was
occurring
in
nineteen
eighty
nineteen
that
needs
to
continue
on
into
nineteen
twenty.
So
then
we
get
to
our
twenty
seven
point.
G
So
that's
about
ten
point:
six
million
we've
got
about
seven
hundred
eighty
thousand
dollars
in
the
category
for
grants,
reimbursements
and
fee
activities
which
are
to
recognize
grants
or
specific
fees
or
to
true
up
various
grant.
A
few
related
revenues
that
nets
about
700,000
or
800,000
dollars
to
the
general
fund.
G
So
for
the
required
technical
rebalancing
actions.
We
have
several
them
here,
I'm
going
to
talk
through
a
few
of
them,
so
the
general
liability
claims
the
first
one
of
four
million
dollars
is
based
on
an
analysis
with
a
city
attorneys
off
Attorney's
Office
of
the
current
and
potential
litigation
supplement
to
claim
awards
that
the
city
is
potentially
facing.
So
we
want
to
make
sure
we
are
have
enough
resources
to
deal
with
that
for
the
IT
project
management
line.
Therefore,
1.9
million.
G
This
is
in
compliance
with
direction
that
we
received
through
council
through
the
mayor's
June
budget
direction,
which
asked
the
administration
to
look
at
vacancies
throughout
to
see
and
vacancy
savings
in
1819
to
have
those
reprioritized
so
that
we
could
add
some
project
managers
to
implement
critical
and
high-impact
IT
projects.
And
so
we
perform
that
analysis
over
the
summer.
And
you
know
what
we
found
is
is
a
little
bit
what
we've
have
been
seen
for
a
while.
G
It
is
an
allocation
of
1.5
million
dollars
to
increase
the
contingency
reserve
per
city
council
policy
to
make
sure
that
the
contingency
reserve
always
represents
approximately
3%
of
the
general
funds
operating
expenditures
which
so
this
would
take
it
up.
From
thirty
eight
point:
five
million
to
forty
40
million.
We
set
the
level
of
thirty
point-
five
million
as
part
of
the
the
base
budget,
but
the
actions
that
we
do
to
modify
the
proposed
and
then
again
here
in
the
annual
report
that
three
percent
threshold
would
be
about
forty
million
dollars.
G
Just
the
last
couple
here
all
I'll
mention
we
have
a
transfer
to
the
building
and
structural
construction
tax
fund
that
aligns
with
previous
direction
to
set
aside
the
business
cooperation
sales
tax
proceeds
that
were
related
to
North,
San
Jose
construction
and
set
that
aside
to
supplement
potential
shortfall
and
the
North
San
Jose
traffic
impact
fee,
and
that
was
identified
through
the
the
in
Luffy
audit.
So
we
want
to
make
sure
we're
transferring
that
over
now.
G
So
this
this
was
received
a
couple
years
ago,
but
we're
transferring
that
back
over
now
to
be
in
compliance
with
that.
With
that
direction
we
have
two
and
fifty
thousand
dollars
for
a
three
one.
One
call
transition
to
reserve
to
make
sure
we're
appropriately
staffed
up
for
when
that
transition
of
three
one
one
comes
over
to
the
customer
contact
center
and
then
we've
got
a
couple
of
Net
Zero
shifts
for
the
Fire
Training
Center
relocation.
Again,
we
want
to
tap
that
reserve
that
we
have
rebadged
it
and
start
the
design
process.
G
The
first
category
at
the
top
there
is
again
at
that
grants
reimbursement
in
fees
where
we
have
a
net
positive
revenue
of
about
$800,000,
then
I
want
to
walk
through
the
urgent
fiscal
and
program
needs.
We
have
just
a
few
of
these,
so
the
first
one
is
the
police,
Guardian
Rapid
Response
program,
which
is
a
program
that
was
initiated
by
the
police
department
shortly
after
the
Gilroy
Garlic
Festival.
Do
you
ensure
that
there
are
officers
dedicated
to
two
schools?
G
They
can
respond
very
quickly
in
the
case
of
an
active
shooter,
as
well
as
provide
additional
resources
for
certain
special
events.
So
there's
funding
of
about
three
million
dollars
for
overtime
for
this
program,
as
well
as
for
additional
V,
the
hickel's
2.3
million
dollars
is
that
transferred
to
the
Municipal
Golf
Course
fund
related
to
pay
down
of
the
Los
Lagos
debt.
G
So
we
received
direction
as
part
of
the
March
and
June
the
budget
messages
to
really
prioritize
the
use
of
one-time
resources
to
help
pay
down
our
existing
debt
obligations
and
as
in
line
with
that
direction.
This
is
some
of
the
opportunities
that
we
look
forward,
allocate
one-time
resources
to
position
us
better
in
the
future.
This
strategy
was
similar
to
the
strategy
we
applied
early
on
so
that
we
could
sell
the
Hayes
mansion.
G
We
will
have
reduced
our
ongoing
debt
obligations
by
about
$700,000
to
the
general
fund
and
will
have
reduced
the
payoff
period
from
2030
to
2026
so
kind
of
chipping
away
at
those
at
that
ability
to.
You
know,
lower
our
debt
obligations
on
that
site
and
potentially
position
us
so
that
we
could
be
more
more
flexible
and
how
that
site
is
used
and
managed.
We
have
1.5
million
dollars
for
the
community
plan
to
end
homelessness.
G
This
is
a
citywide
appropriation
that
will
support
the
interdepartmental
efforts
to
operationalize
a
locally
tailored
work
plan
in
support
of
the
pillow
three
of
the
community
plan
to
end
homelessness,
enhancing
service
levels
and
pilot
project
areas
or
where
there
are
disproportionate
impacts
from
unsheltered
individuals.
And
finally,
in
this
category
we
have
$200,000
for
a
city
facilities,
safety
assessment
to
conduct
an
evaluation
at
threat
assessment
consistent
with
homeland
security,
best
practices
for
anti-terrorism,
which
will
inform
the
development
of
potential
security
and
operational
improvements
to
protect
city-owned
facilities
and
the
community
and
employees
who
use
them.
G
This
is
paired
with
a
similar
allocation
in
the
construction
I'm.
Sorry,
the
Convention
Center,
the
Commission
of
cultural
affairs
fund
to
look
at
facilities
that
are
related
to
the
Convention
Center
Operations.
So,
at
the
end
of
that,
we
have
about
10
million
dollars
left
leftover
and
what
City
Council
policy
118
says
is
that,
after
you
have
accounted
for
your
required
technical
actions
and
any
urgent
fiscal
program
needs
what
the
next
step
is
to
make
sure
that
the
the
projected
deficit
for
the
next
year
is
fully
fully
funded,
at
least
with
one-time
resources.
G
We
had
already
done
that
in
the
proposed
budget,
so
we
have
ten
point:
nine
million
dollars
set
aside
as
part
of
the
proposed
budget
to
fully
fund
that
anticipated
shortfall
next
year,
at
least
with
one-time
resources.
After
that
that
shortfall
is
is
allocated
for,
then
we
look
to
the
budget,
Stabilization,
Reserve,
unmet,
deferred
infrastructure
needs
or
any
other
urgent
fiscal
physical
program
needs,
and
so
we're
recommending
five
million
dollars
for
the
budget.
Stabilization
Reserve.
G
What
this
does
it
raises
that
budget
stabilization
reserved
from
twenty
seven
million
dollars
to
thirty
two
million
dollars,
bringing
our
total
general
purpose
reserves,
which
includes
D
by
D
stabilization,
the
workers,
compensation,
general
liability
claims
and
the
contingency
to
about
6.5
percent
of
operating
expenditures,
which
is
consistent
with
the
level
that
we
had
in
the
proposed
budget,
so
kind
of
making
sure
that
we're
not
getting
any
worse
as
the
as
the
city
grows.
We
want
keep
trying
to
get
to
that
10%
level.
G
Finally,
we
also
have
you
know
a
number
I
just
talked
a
lot
about
general
fund.
We
have
a
number
of
actions
in
special
funds
and
those
performances
were
also
fairly
strong.
So
an
operating
funds
for
the
airport
passenger
activity
was
up
ten
point:
eight
percent
to
fourteen
point:
nine
million
passengers
and
overall
revenue
exceeded
budget
essence
by
about
3.1
million,
as
I'd
mentioned
previously.
The
building
and
structure
construction
tax
and
construction
excise
tax
were
all
strong
a
little
bit
below
last
year,
but
above
the
budget
estimates
and
the
CNC
taxes.
G
So
again
we
have
a
number
of
fund
balance,
reconciliation,
rebadged
adjustments,
technical
adjustments
in
these
special
in
capital
funds.
We
also
have
various
adjustments
to
recognize
grants
and
reimbursements,
update
costs
and
revenue
estimates
based
on
project
timing
and
moving
forward
with
a
few
priority
projects
and
programs
which
are
all
spelled
out
there.
A
Jim
thanks
thanks
to
you
and
Bonnie
and
Claudia,
and
the
entire
team
appreciate
the
great
work
certainly
appreciate
that,
once
again,
what
we're
being
presented.
You
know
we
consistently
try
to
stay
conservative
on
estimates
and
so
that
we're
not
put
in
the
position
of
having
to
make
severe
cuts
because
of
any
surprises.
Obviously,
this
last
year
we
had
only
good
surprises.
It
seemed
almost
all
and
I
really
appreciate
the
commitment
of
dollars
to
reserves,
because
I
think
we
all
know
that
the
good
times
won't
roll
forever,
and
these
were
remarkable
times
over
the
last
year.
A
I
just
saw
that
the
number
that
we
reported
for
just
the
sale
of
land-
that's
you
know,
one
time,
obviously
a
benefit
exceeded,
I
think
81
million
dollars.
Perhaps
it
was
882
million
on
page
223
and
obviously
we're
never
gonna
be
able
to
realize
those
kinds
of
revenues.
Again,
that's
one
time
and
we
need
to
think
carefully
about
how
we
use
those
one-time
revenues
and
I
appreciate
big
Chuck
Ramar
going
toward
rebuilding
if
our
training
center
and
and
obviously
we
have
a
lot
of
other
one-time
needs.
So
I
appreciate
all
that.
A
I
want
to
point
out
some
other
highlights
really
reflecting
great
performance
of
various
folks
on
the
city
team.
I
think
this
is
the
first
time
I've
seen
that
we've
gotten
our
full
allocation
from
the
County
on
the
paramedic
program,
which
is
really
tributyltin
fire
departments,
dramatic
improvement
in
response
time,
so
emergency
medical
calls.
Obviously
it's
not
the
money
that
matters.
A
It's
the
fact
that
we're
getting
to
people
in
peril
and
we're
doing
so
consistently
above
a
standard
and
I
think
that's
a
great
great
thing
to
see
and
really
a
strong
sign
of
what's
happening
in
the
fire
department.
Sorry
I
just
really
appreciate
that
that
merging
I
did
have
a
question
about
the
reimbursements
were
getting
from
the
successor
agency
and
I
saw.
It
was
2.3
million
dollars
this
year
or
last
year.
I
should
say:
do
we
expect
that
eventually
do.
G
A
G
Think
it'll
it'll
take
a
while
for
those,
let's
see,
I
think
in
in
1819
we
had
a
little
bit
of
a
lower
level
because
of
some
of
the
c-raf
debt
repayment.
So
we're
gonna
see
a
bigger
chunk
of
that
in
1920
and
that
will
continue
to
grow
as
the
the
value
of
the
land
grows.
I
think
those
bond
chunk
probably
pay
off
in
chunks
over
time.
So
we'll
probably
start
seeing
chunks
of
that
grow
in
the
future,
but
yeah
as
those
bonds
get
paid
off
that
amount
of
revenue
will
certainly
grow.
That's.
A
F
You
and
thank
you
for
the
great
report
as
well
in
front
of
it,
was
a
very
well
you
know
describing
where
the
money
is
going.
I
think
it.
You
did
a
great
job.
I
wanted
to
ask
a
couple
questions
about
the
first,
a
library
on
the
library,
the
money
that
we
were
finishing,
the
negotiations
with
San
Jose,
State
University
and
then
the
ongoing
money
287,000
is
that
it
is
that
an
ongoing
fee,
or
is
this
an
excess
fee
or
have
we
finished
the
negotiations
with
sands
of
State
University
on
the
IT
support.
G
H
H
C
F
F
F
Okay,
thank
you
so
much
Joe.
Thank
you
for
all
your
efforts.
I'm
really
proud
that
we're
putting
away
five
million
dollars
for
a
rainy
day.
I
concur
with
the
mayor.
I
understand
that
five
million
will
be
set
aside
for
emergency,
like
whatever
those
I,
guess,
gas
and
and
backup
generators.
Are
we
going
to
be
investing
anything
in
electric
back-up?
F
Basically,
batteries
at
the
community
centers,
for
example,
in
in
my
district,
we
could
not
use
my
library
as
a
meeting
space
because
we
didn't
have
like
well,
we
were
expected
not
to
have
electricity.
We
ended
up
having
electricity,
but
we
were
telling
everyone
to
go
to
district
9
into
the
Camden
library.
Are
we
going
to
invest
in
our
own
infrastructure
other
than
generators.
I
Mayor
Locarno
members
of
the
City
Council
I,
am
Walter
Lin
deputy
director
for
Public
Works
Council
Mary
Kay
miss
to
answer
your
question.
That
is
a
technology
that
we're
looking
into
as
well.
We
know
that
there's
been
some
previous
discussions
about
more
newer
technologies
that
are
using
renewable
energy,
reducing
the
greenhouse
gas
emissions
from
a
proven
technology
standpoint
and
from
a
I
guess
from
a
timeliness
standpoint
the
emergency
generators
that
are
diesel
fueled.
Now
that
is
off
the
market.
I
I
As
we
look
at
how
we
are
trying
to
make
our
critical
facilities
more
energy
resilient
with
this
backup
generation,
I
think
we
can
have
a
phased-in
approach
as
we
start
looking
at
the
immediate
needs
of
what
we
need
now
and
then
looking
at
the
future,
how
do
we
try
to
best
incorporate
some
of
the
newer
technologies?
Thank.
D
You
if
I,
could
just
to
connect
some
dots
so
later
on
today
in
the
agenda,
three-point-four
you'll
see
that
we
have
an
item
for
UPS
the
uninterruptible
power
supply
that
is
a
battery
and
that
battery
goes
on
as
soon
as
the
power
goes
out
and
bridges
the
time
until
the
generators
can
come
on.
So
the
generators
are
the
standard
way
that
we
provide
backup
power
in
certain
cases
like
with
dispatch
and
with
with
the
network
operation
center.
We
can't
live
through
that
time
period,
and
so
we
have
a
battery
that
bridges
at
that
time.
F
I
F
J
F
J
F
G
You
know
we
wanted
to
be
consistent
with
the
approach
that
we've
kind
of
taken
over
the
course
of
budget
year,
which
is
to
chip
away
at
it.
You
know
I
mean
you
could
always
just
kind
of
take
all
the
one-time
on
you
had
and
kind
of
put
aside
the
other
issues
that
the
city
is
facing
and
pay
more
of
it
down,
but
but
this
is
kind
of
that
consistent
chipping
away
approach,
where
we
can
take
a
little
bit
of
the
one
time
dollars
and
pay
that
down.
F
Yeah
well
this
this
debt.
Actually
it's
it's
more
important
for
at
least
in
my
opinion,
more
important
to
pay
down
because
it
actually
limits
the
people
who
can
actually
bid
on
contracts.
For
that
and
then,
if
and
you
I'm
sure
you
you
remember-
that
nobody
bid
to
manage
the
this
these
facilities
because
of
all
these
requirements
and
the
bonded
netted
nests.
G
F
You
and
I'm
really
happy
to
see
that
we're
moving
from
the
the
seven
hundred
thousand
dollars
to
two
point:
two
million
for
rent
stabilization.
This
is
something
that
no
former
councilmember
Don
wrote
to
and
I
wanted
to
make
happen,
and
we
could
I
think
it's
the
best
way
to
keep
people
out
of
losing
their
homes.
So
thank
you
for
that.
There's
1.8
million
dedicated
for
a
street
safety
maintenance
on
on
page
IV
96.
Is
that
going
to
be
somehow
divided
by
district
or
how's
that
going
to
be
first-come,
first-serve?
What's
the
what's?
G
What
what
I
I
think
this
is
so
I
think
this
will
be
really
allocated
out
really
as
part
as
I'm.
Rereading
this
a
reserve
that
will
be
budgeted
out
as
part
of
the
proposed
capital
budget
process
going
forward
through
next
year.
So,
setting
aside
those
monies
that
came
in
above
the
estimates
for
construction
excise,
making
sure
that
those
are
then
prior
and
spent
from
that
reserve
in
to
live
procreation
as
part
of
the
next
budget
process
or
some
major
process.
Okay,.
F
F
Okay,
all
right
yep!
Thank
you,
okay,
yeah,
so
I
am
again
I'm
I'm,
always
happy
to
be
talking
about
exceeding
our
goals
and
in
revenues.
Rather
than
having
a
budget
deficit.
I've
been
lucky
to
be
at
City
Council
every
year,
where
we
were
talking
about
more
than
we
expected,
rather
than
less
than
we
expected
us
through.
Some
of
the
great
work
that
you
guys
do
to
keep
us
solvent
and
in
the
out
of
debt.
I
appreciate
that
I
will
make
a
motion
to
accept
the
report
from
staff
and
the
recommendations
going
forth.
B
Thank
you,
Jim,
thank
you
to
you
and
your
team
for
the
presentation
today
and
the
really
well-defined
book
that
I
received
and
I
did
read
it
cover-to-cover.
Thank
you
very
much.
This
is
my
first
year
having
to
go
through
this
whole
budget
process
from
the
beginning,
and
this
cleanup
budget
and
I
really
appreciate
how
well
it
was
laid
out
and
the
information
that
was
laid
out
for
me.
B
Also,
my
staff
is
very
anxiously
awaiting
the
new
release
of
the
website,
so
hiring
more
staff
to
get
that
done
will
be
fabulous
as
every
day
we
get
a
question
or
a
comment
about
our
personal
website
site
and
we
keep
deferring
it.
But
your
team
is
the
IT
team,
particularly
matt,
is
doing
an
excellent
job
in
working
with
us,
also
Public
Safety.
B
It's
tremendous
that
we
are
contributing
even
more
to
Public
Safety
and
the
things
that
we
need
to
be
aware
of,
and
protecting
our
residents,
in
particular
the
additional
funds
to
the
301
and
911
systems
based
on
the
results
of
the
audit.
We
know
that
done
earlier
this
year
that
we
know
that
we
have
areas
that
were
working
on
and
those
additional
funds
will
really
help
bring
staffing
up
and
create
some
efficiencies.
B
So
I
was
happy
to
see
the
additional
funds
there
and
additional
FTEs
and
unfortunately,
we
have
to
have
additional
funds
for
the
Guardian
Rapid
Response
program,
but
it's
a
necessary
adjustment
to
allow
PD
to
respond
to
those
situated
suitor
situations
and
and
anticipate
them.
So
I
was
glad
to
see
the
additional
money
like
the
mayor
and
councilmember
Camus
and
I'm
sure
others
who
will
weigh
in
on
this
I,
really
believe
in
paying
down
debt
as
well.
It's
important
to
get
rid
of
our
debt,
our
burden,
our
burdensome
debt
as
much
and
quickly
as
possible.
B
I'm
personally
I
like
to
get
rid
of
my
dad
as
soon
as
I
I
can
but
I
understand
this
stepping
down
approach
on
how
we're
doing
that
was
with
lost
logos
as
well
lagos.
Sorry
logos
is
somebody
else's
I
think
anyway,
the
idea
of
paying
that
debt
down
and
eliminating
any
outstanding
obligations
like
that
is
really
helpful.
As
eventually
it
will
put
more
money
back
into
the
general
fund
and
reduce
our
debt
load.
And
then
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we
continue
to
focus
on
quality
of
life
in
our
neighborhoods
and
I.
B
Appreciate
the
additional
funding
that
we're
mate,
we're
managing
for
homeless
concerns
in
addressing
our
own
house
population
and
how
we
can
help
out
the
unhoused
population
and
I
hope
that
the
city,
the
county
and
adjoining
cities
will
also
step
up
in
a
bigger
way
and
help
with
the
homeless
population.
I
really
lent
only
had
one
question
and
it's
probably
a
newbie
question:
there's
a
reference
to
carryover
encumbrances.
Can
you
tell
me
what
those
are
so.
G
That
is
money,
that
is,
that
was
let's
say
in
1819,
we
opened
up
a
Pio
or
executed
a
contract,
for
let's
say
a
million
dollars,
and
we
so
we
encumbered
that
that
so
all
that
million
dollars
became
restricted
for
that
vendor,
and
so
when
that
encumbrance
crosses
the
fiscal
year,
so
that
money
is
still
encumbered.
Maybe
we
didn't
spend
all
of
that
money,
so
we
carry
over
the
remaining
balance
of
that
encumbrance
into
the
following
fiscal
year.
G
So
that's
so
in
commerce
that
we
have
in
1920
that
was
first
encumbered
in
1819
is
a
carryover
in
encumbrance.
We
go
through
the
process
every
so
often
or
every
year
to
look
at
okay.
There
are
some
carryover
encumbrances
that
we
probably
don't
need
anymore
and
that's
liquidate
those,
and
we
always
assume
to
assume
a
certain
amount
of
that
as
part
of
the
proposed
budget
process
and
I
think
we
normally
around
2.5
million
and
it
ended
up
being
finally
at
3.2
this
year.
So.
B
G
C
You
I
also
want
to
add
my
thanks,
Jim
to
you
and
your
team,
for
always
putting
together
a
conservative
budget
and
and
for
the
very
detailed
report
that
we
get
I
have
one
question:
I
know
it's
my
third
year
and
I
should
probably
know
the
answer
to
this
already,
but
the
the
budget
Stabilization
Reserve
versus
the
contingency
reserve.
What
are
those
earmarked
for
so.
G
The
contingency
reserve
is
there
kind
of
in
the
worst
case
scenario,
we
have
no
cash
coming
into
the
city.
Something
really
bad
has
happened.
We
we
hope
to
never
touch
that
contingency
reserve.
The
budget
stabilization
is
kind
of
more
viewed
like
a
rainy,
a
rainy
day
fund,
so
that
when,
when
we
do
hit
the
next
economic
downturn,
we
will
use
that
reserve
to
help
bridge
the
gap
if
the
deficit
is
too
big
for
us
to
to
solve
in
one
one
year,
that
was
a
strategy
we
employed
during
the
last
recession.
G
We
kind
of
had
a
we
drained
that
budget
stabilization
reserve
fund
and
then
built
it
back
up
again,
and
we
also,
if
things
got
really
bad,
let's
say
in
the
middle
of
a
year
we
could
tap
that
budget
stabilization
reserve
fund
without
having
to
cut
services
in
the
middle
of
the
year.
If
we
felt
good
enough
that
hey,
if
we
tap
that
butter
stabilization
a
little
bit
right
now,
we
feel
like
we
would
be
okay,
the
next
year
with
some
other
minor
tweaks.
So
it's
the
budget.
C
G
Know
so
I
the
overall
council
policy
is
ten
ten
percent
for
all
of
our
general
purpose
reserves,
which
would
be
the
sum
of
the
contingency,
the
stabilization
and
the
catastrophic
claims
workers
compensations
lie,
Maya
liability,
so
the
City
Council
policy
has
a
target
of
10
percent.
When
the
auditor's
office
did
an
audit
on
reserves,
they
recommended.
You
know
the
upper
end,
the
target
of
16%.
G
C
C
Okay,
great,
thank
you.
That's
very
helpful.
The
only
other
question
I
had
is
about
the
fire
training
center
amount.
The
thirty-six
point
eight
million-
is
that
enough
to
cover
the
whole
relocation
in
the
building,
and
that
may
not
be
a
question
for
you.
It
might
be
a
question
for
Public
Works
or
for
Dave,
but
is
that
cover
the
whole
cost.
D
Thank
you
Matt
keynote
director
at
work.
Some
know
that
likely
won't
be
enough
to
build
the
Fire
Training
Center
that
we
want
to
build
for
the
future
San
Jose,
so
we're
gonna
be
coming
forward
to
Council
sometime
the
next
two
to
three
months,
in
partnership
with
the
fire
department
and
other
city
departments,
to
make
a
recommendation,
and
what
we
want
to
do
is
make
sure
we're
not
just
replacing
what
we
had,
but
also
building
what
we
need
for
the
future
so
to
build.
D
What
we
need
for
the
future,
which
is
going
to
be
bigger
than
we
currently
have
and
more
and
better
than
we
currently
have
will
require
more
than
the
money
we
that
you
just
mentioned,
and
so
we're
putting
together
a
plan
to
achieve
that
and
we'll
be
coming
back
to
council
in
the
next
two
to
three
months.
Okay,.
D
I,
don't
remember
so
there's
two
other
areas
that
we're
looking
at
right
now.
One
is:
we
received
a
three
million
dollar
grant
from
the
state
of
California
that
I
think
some
of
you
were
involved
in
helping
us
get
for
a
fire
as
well
as
another,
three
million
for
that
emergency,
roughly
three
million
for
the
Emergency
Operations
Center,
and
we're
also
looking
at
our
central
service
yard
fund,
one
of
our
capital
funds
and
whether
there's
any
financing
that
we
can
do
with
those
capital
revenues
in
order
to
get
upfront
money
to
help
build
the
project.
D
D
I'm
correct:
we
could
it's
possible,
we
could
use
measure
T
dollars,
although
the
public
safety
commitments
and
measure
T
are
pretty
extensive
that
we're
trying
to
deliver
right
now
outside
of
Fire
Training
Center.
So
I
don't
currently
anticipate,
there's
going
to
be
anything
extra
to
go
around
and
measure
T
for
this
project,
but
it
is
on
the
list
of
funds
we're
looking
at
as
possibilities,
but
as
of
right
now
we're
trying
not
to
use
measure
T
funds,
okay,.
C
D
D
Think
the
approach
that
we've
taken
and
really
the
the
benchmark
is
that
we
wanted
to
be
sure
that
we
could
replace
the
existing
facility
for
what
we
were
receiving
through
the
land
deal
and
so
so
far.
That
is,
you
know
true.
We
are
looking
at
what
we
can
do
in
terms
of
enhancing
what
we
can
only
have
and
I.
D
Think
many
of
you
have
been
out
there
and
understand
why
we're
trying
to
do
that,
and
so
it's
really
trying
to
measure
match
up
kind
of
that
enhanced
scope
with
the
funds
that
we
have
available
to
us.
But
we're
still
meeting
that
initial
threshold
of
being
able
to
replace
the
existing
facility
for
really
what
we
were
able
to
get
out
of
the
land
deal
and.
G
So
if
I
could
just
clarify
so
the
41
getting
the
full
41
is
contingent
upon
us
meeting
a
couple
of
benchmarks
in
the
progress
of
the
design
of
the
facility.
So
we
had
the
38
million
sorry
at
the
30,
the
37
million.
Once
we
meet
some
more
benchmarks,
we
will
get
the
full
41
million
dollars.
Please
don't
have
that
yet.
But
it's
part
as
part
of
the
purchase
and
sale
agreement.
We
will
get
that
for
41
million
as
as
the
design
of
the
new
facility
proceeds
and
we
exit
the
oh
so.
C
G
L
H
L
Had
a
couple
of
comments,
I
wanted
to
thank
staff
for
all
their
hard
work
on
this
and
really
comment
on
the
1.5
million
on
the
community
plan
and
homelessness,
as
well
as
the
quality
of
life
and
healthy
neighborhoods.
I
just
wanted
to
comment
that
I
am
looking
forward
to
the
city
manager's
plan
as
we
roll
out
some
of
these
neighborhood
increased
neighborhood
services
into
pilot
and
impacted
areas.
L
A
A
E
A
C
We've
been
I
personally
am
a
party
to
that.
The
city's
a
party
to
that
and
rates
I'm.
Also
a
member
with
rates.
That's
been
a
party
to
that
and
the
whole
proceeding
surrounding
that's
been
a
sham.
There's
been
no
protections
in
place
for
the
city
or
for
your
constituents
who
have
San
Jose
water
as
your
water
provider
and
so
I'm.
Just
anticipating
similar
types
of
issues
with
PG&E
and
I
think
here
in
Silicon
Valley.
C
E
A
You
I
just
had
one
a
question
on
this
item:
Matt
I
appreciate
the
email
you
sent
me
I
just
wanted
to
follow
up
on
that
I'm
or
Walter,
whoever
in
the
email.
In
response
to
my
question
about
what
exactly
were
we're
buying
here,
it's
clearly
a
battery
as
they
described
and
I.
Guess
it's
continually
charging
battery
that
then
we
can
draw
it
down
and
you
describe
a
seven
minute
period
of
time
or
it's
a
seven
second
I'm.
Sorry,
second,
three
anytime,
that's
critical
between
one
system.
A
I
Yes,
a
good
question
mayor
the
part
of
Walter
Lewin
deputy
director
of
public
works,
so
that
is
one
of
the
more
critical
functions
of
what
the
UPS
will
serve.
If
there
is
a
detection
of
a
PG&E
outage,
the
UPS
is
going
to
bridge
that
gap
of
time
that
seven
seconds
between
when
the
emergency
generator
would
be
initiated.
I
As
it
is
right
now,
we
cannot
maintain
very
much
of
that
infrastructure,
so
whether
it's
the
current
UPS,
the
main
switch
gear,
which
is
the
main
circuit
breaker
that
powers
the
knock
as
well,
because
we
cannot
shut
down
anything.
We
cannot
preventative,
provide
any
preventive
maintenance
or
corrective
maintenance,
so
having
a
new
system
as
well
as
a
redundant
system
that
allows
to
switch
back
and
forth
and
do
actually
the
preventative
maintenance
for
the
last
14
years.
Unfortunately,
we
have
not
been
able
to
do
very
much
maintenance
on
the
system,
which
then
would
affect
reliability
so.
A
I
understand
that
this
is
really
a
bridge
to
get
us
to
the
generator
right
and
my
concern
I
know
it's.
Your
concern,
too,
is
in
the
world
of
an
extended
shutdown,
the
uncertainty
of
fuel
supply
getting
to
where
we
needed
to
get
to
how
long
those
generators
will
be
able
to
keep
operating
and
I'm.
Just
wondering
can
this
battery
being
used
for
any
extended
period
of
time?
Any
duration
beyond.
I
So
with
the
system
has
it
set
up.
Currently,
the
existing
UPS
can
last
us
22
minutes
the
new
UPS,
as
well
as
the
redundant
UPS
that'll
double
the
time,
so
we're
at
about
40
to
45
minutes.
So,
unfortunately,
it's
not
sustainable.
We
do
have
to
rely
still
on
the
emergency
generator.
The
emergency
generator
will
last
us
17
hours
with
its
current
fuel
supply
and
obviously
with
City
Hall,
we'll
treat
this
as
a
critical
facility
for
refueling
needs
in
the
event
in
which
the
main
generator
actually
fails.
I
This
project
also
allows
us
to
incorporate
some
electrical
connections
where
a
secondary
generator
can
be
brought
in.
That
is
something
that
we
bring
in
independently.
I
took
up
just
specifically
to
supply
one
dock,
the
network
operations
center
with
power.
So
we
are
looking
at
almost
a
triple
redundancy
in
case
of
need.
We
are
not
building
in
that
secondary
emergency
center,
and
so
this
budget,
that's
something
that
we
just
bring
along
separately.
Okay,.
I
The
technology
it's
keeping
like
for
like
just
matching
what
we
currently
have.
We
are
we're
familiar
with
the
other
types
of
technology
as
well,
be
the
Bloom
Box
like
technologies,
the
fuel
cells
I
think
sign
nature
depending
on
the
fuel
source.
We
are
looking
at.
How
do
we
balance
that
with
other
city
policies,
in
particular
the
zero
net
carbons
scenario,
where
many
of
the
fuel
cells
are
natural
gas
based
we're?
I
A
You
know
I
appreciate
the
concerns,
certainly
about
the
availability
of
natural
gas
as
well,
and
I
mean
it's
a
challenge
to
have
enough
redundancy
out
there
I,
just
wonder:
if
of
what
we're
all
totally
doing
he's
relying
on
generators,
we
don't
really
have
a
great
zero
energy
solution
at
the
end
of
day
anyway,
so
you
know
I'm
willing
to
compromise
if
it
gets
us
something
more
reliable
but
anyway,
thanks
for
shade
all
right,
any
other
questions.
Let's
vote.
A
A
M
This
project
has
been
in
process
for
over
three
years,
I'm
going
to
provide
a
brief
background
for
the
public
and
for
the
new
council
members,
so
approximately
on
the
Y.
Approximately
thirty
percent
of
the
students
in
East
San
Jose
do
not
have
internet
access
at
home
in
terms
of
the
what
the
Eastside
Union,
High
School
District
passed
a
2004
technology
bond
to
increase
student
access
to
computers
and
modern
technology,
including
allocating
2.7
million
dollars
to
close
the
homework
gap.
M
And
that's
why
we're
here
so
in
terms
of
the
timeline
go
back
in
the
Wayback
Machine
to
2014,
when
the
district
approved
the
technology
bond
in
2016,
the
city
approved
agreements
with
the
district
and
smart
wave
4
over
felt
in
after
a
challenging
deployment
period,
we
deploy
the
access
Eastside,
as
it's
now
called
for
James
lick
students
and
teachers.
Only
in
2017
at
the
recommendation,
the
smart
city
committee
we
spent
over
a
year
doing
an
assessment
on
both
the
technical
performance
and
educational
performance.
M
Upon
successful
completion,
we
activated
access
Eastside
at
James
lick
for
the
non
student
households
in
2019.
That
brings
us
to
red
today
seeking
approval
of
the
recommendation
to
execute
amendments
to
bring
the
over
felt
Wi-Fi
online.
Before
the
start
of
the
school
year
for
student
and
non
student
households,
we
expect
to
have
that
done
current
schedule
of
the
recommendations
passed
today
by
July
of
2020
and
then
we'll
move
on
to
the
final
project
that
was
in
the
original
scope
from
2016
the
Yerba
Buena
High
School
area.
M
L
Thank
You
Dolan
reginae
Nair,
smart
city
manager,
civic
innovation
team.
So
at
the
time
this
project
was
the
first
of
its
kind.
It
took
quite
a
collaborative
effort
between
three
entities,
and
so
it
started
off
with
East
Side
Union
High
School
District,
which
provided
the
capital
funding
to
purchase
the
equipment,
in
addition
to
providing
the
funding
for
the
permitting
fees
and
then
once
a
project
was
completed,
it
covered
for
the
operation
and
maintenance
cost
within
the
city
of
San
Jose.
L
It
was
quite
a
collaborative
effort
within
the
departments
of
the
organization,
so
I
do
want
to
say
great
thanks
to
Public
Works,
Department
of
Transportation
library,
information
technology,
finance,
budget
office
and
also
civic
innovation.
So
with
that
what
the
city
offered
was
the
actual
asset,
so
particularly
our
street
lights,
our
backhaul
and
our
power.
Also,
our
city
staff,
part
of
the
permitting
fees,
essentially
helped
the
district
in
order
to
design
and
provide
construction
support.
L
There
was
a
tremendous
amount
of
leadership,
support
and
other
in-kind
contributions
to
keep
this
project
moving
forward,
and
then
the
library
department,
in
addition
with
the
East
Side,
Union
High
School
District,
collaborated
on
establishing
educational
outcomes
and
digital
literacy.
But
none
of
this
could
not
happen
without
the
true
support
of
the
implementation,
with
smart
wave
technologies,
Rosen
and
electric
Cupertino,
electric
and
PG&E,
and
then
with
the
technical
evaluation.
You
can
see
it's
a
village.
The
technical
evaluation
is
the
Silicon
Valley
talent,
partnership
and
PayPal.
They
were
tremendous
in
helping
that
out.
M
Reggie,
so
in
terms
of
the
assessment
that
we
were
asked
to
come
back
to
Council
with
I'm
gonna
go
through
this
quickly,
we're
gonna.
If
you
don't
believe
us,
you
can
believe
the
actual
users,
the
students
and
teachers,
so
we've
got
a
short
two-minute
testimonial
and
then
we're
gonna
turn
it
over
to
Randy
to
talk
about
the
district's
perspective
so
from
the
customer
satisfaction,
the
customer
either
being
the
end
or
the
district
who's
paying
they're
very
satisfied
and
Randi
will
elaborate
on
that.
M
In
terms
of
the
student
and
teacher
usage,
it's
currently
over
1.5
terabytes
per
month,
whereas
a
reference,
a
terabyte,
is
two
hundred
thousand
books.
So
every
month
the
students
and
teachers
are
basically
downloading
the
equivalent
of
three
hundred
thousand
books
to
help
their
educational
assessment
in
terms
of
the
public
usage
it's
over
five
terabytes
per
month,
and
that
equates
to
five
times
the
downtown
Wi-Fi,
the
convention
Wi-Fi
and
the
Airport
Wi-Fi
combined.
M
So
it's
being
heavily
used
by
the
public
in
the
James
lik
area
from
a
technology
solution,
we've
looked
at
many
technology
solutions
several
times
and
the
current
mesh
network
is
performing
well
provides
a
cost.
Effective
means
for
connectivity,
resiliency
and
reliability.
It
was
since
November
2017.
M
It
was
available
at
ninety
nine
point
four
percent
reliability
which,
in
the
world
of
two
thousand
trailing
nines,
may
not
sound
reliable,
but
for
this
type
of
network,
the
folks
at
PayPal
said
it
was
an
extraordinarily
high
degree
of
reliability
so
that
basically
the
technical
network
is
sound
from
the
educational
benchmarks.
Obviously
this
is
going
to
be
an
evaluation
over
time,
but
the
district
and
the
city
and
the
library
have
agreed
on
a
set
of
educational
benchmarks.
M
We
know
how
to
measure-
and
we
can
measure
and
we'll
be
doing
that
over
time
at
James
felt
James
lik
and
comparing
them
to
over
felt
and
eventually
yerba
buena.
The
student
and
teacher
satisfaction.
The
actual
users
is
very
high.
The
students
and
teachers
talk
about
further
engagement
on
email
after
high
school
after
school
hours.
Excuse
me,
and
now
we're
going
to
tee
up
a
video
that
the
students
and
teachers
have
changed
like
created
to
show
how
happy
they
are
with
this.
E
C
And
I
feel
like
it
just
helps
them
out.
I
am
Dorothy,
Atkinson
and
I
am
an
integrated
Math.
Two
and
math
3
teacher
at
James
lik.
So
far
in
the
classroom,
community
Wireless
has
been
awesome
because
I
actually
started
recording
homework.
Videos
homework
help
videos,
because
a
lot
of
students
would
say:
I,
don't
know
how
to
do
this.
My
parents
don't
know
how
to
do
this.
They're
able
to
go
home
and
watch
the
videos
and
get
that
homework,
help
individually
from
me
and
then
they're
more
able
to
get
the
homework
done.
C
So
the
community
Wireless
has
actually
been
really
great
because
the
students
have
been
able
to
message
me
through
remind
late
at
night
and
say:
hey
I'ma,
say
like
my
grade.
Doesn't
have
this
in
it,
but
I
thought
I'd
turned
it
in
and
so
I'm
able
to
respond,
and
so
the
community
Wireless
is
able
to
give
them
access
to
apps
and
that
technology
which
helps
they're
great
from
a
teacher
standpoint.
C
I've
definitely
noticed
a
change
in
my
classroom
because
I'm
getting
more
students
who
are
turning
in
homework
and
I've
had
an
improvement
in
actual
questions
because
of
those
homework.
Videos
so
they're
able
to
kind
of
reflect
on
what
I'm
saying
in
the
homework
videos
at
home
kind
of
process
it
and
come
back
and
be
able
to
ask
me
better
questions.
C
M
M
The
combination
of
James
lick
and
over
felt
pretty
much
is
a
good
overlap
with
alum
rock
and
they
have
expressed
interest
in
the
past,
but
joining
both
from
a
technical
perspective
and
a
funding
contribution
perspective.
So
so,
having
said
that,
that
kind
of
concludes
the
assessment
we
were
asked
to
come
back
with
and
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
district
chief
technology
officer,
Randy
Phelps.
For
his
perspective,
hi.
P
Randy
Phelps
chief
technology
officer
first
I
just
want
to
thank
the
mayor
and
the
council
for
all
the
help
and
the
support
on
this
project.
It's
a
very
complex
project
and
also
our
thanks
to
Dolan
and
his
team.
They've
been
absolutely
awesome.
I'll
brown
to
my
right
has
been
a
fantastic
vendor
to
work
with
overall
I
mean
what's
been
nice,
as
we've
developed
some
great
relationships,
but
the
most
important
thing
and
I
I
smiled
during
the
video
one
thing
I'd
like
to
tell
you
is
that
video
was
produced
entirely
by
kids
and
I.
P
The
only
instructions
I
sent
them
out
with
was
go
over
to
the
school
and
just
asked
legitimately.
Like
is
this
a
good
thing?
Are
you
guys
getting
a
benefit
from
this
and
they
said?
Well?
How
do
we
do
it?
My
said:
well,
you
have
anything
on
your
phone
or
you
need
a
camera
or
whatever,
and
then
course
they
had
a
phone
with
a
camera
and
they
went
out
and
put
all
that
together,
including
the
graphics
which
they
asked
me
for
the
program
to
put
the
graphics
together
and
I
got
it
for
them.
P
P
We're
ready
to
go.
I'll
have
we'll
have
some
additional
funds
coming
through
our
tech
bond
on
the
way
that
we
designed
it
and
we
love
the
relationship,
and
we
think
this
is
one
of
those
great
things
that
cities
and
school
districts
can
do
together
that
really
really
impact
our
entire
community.
We
really
love
it
the
whole
community's
on
and
along
with
our
grant,
that
we
got
from
Sprint
we're
able
to
supply
for
our
kids
if
they
don't
have
a
phone
or
a
device
to
use.
P
We
supply
those
for
them,
so
just
realize
that
district-wide
we're
supplying
phones
with
data
plans,
but
this
is
so
much
better
than
the
data
plan
you
get
in
the
sprint
thing.
Even
the
Sprint
folks
are
like
do
as
much
community
Wireless
as
you
can
use
the
Sprint
and
grant
to
supplant
that,
so
those
two
together
are
really
serving
our
kids
well
and
I.
Just
really
want
to
express
our
gratitude
to
your
support
and,
in
your
help,
thank.
M
You
thanks
Randy,
so
just
to
go
for
next
steps
before
we
conclude,
obviously
we're
hoping
for
approval
of
recommendation.
This
is
not
a
negotiate
and
execute
it's
execute.
So
all
the
Elva
signatures
are
ready
for
go
we're
just
waiting
for
the
council.
Approval
will
immediately
begin
with
the
over
felt
designed
to
meet
the
school
year
with
the
target
of
late
July
2020.
That's,
fortunately,
the
same
staff
and
Public
Works
are
still
the
same
staff
and
Public
Works
available.
So
we
should
be
much
more
efficient
at
at
this
time.
M
We're
be
continuing
to
conduct
the
educational
assessments
and
reporting
back
through
the
education,
digital
literacy
strategy
of
the
library
and
then
in
parallel,
we
pursuing
those
funding
options,
help
close
the
funding
gap
for
your
Pope
wayna
for
both
the
installation
and
ongoing
operations
and
maintenance.
And
that
concludes
our
presentation.
A
Thank
You
Donna
and
thanks
everyone.
You
know,
I,
really
think
it's
important.
You
know
it
can't
be
understated.
This
is
a
really
big
deal
and
I
know
this
has
been
more
than
three
years
in
in
the
process,
but
you
know
we
undertook
this
effort
to
figure
out
what
the
digital
divide
was
in
this
city
and
identified.
We
think
almost
100,000
people
were
on
the
wrong
side
of
it,
roughly
50,000
households,
and
just
in
James
lick
alone,
we
were
able
to
reach
6,000
of
those
households
right
in
the
core.
A
So
thank
you
for
for
what
you
guys
have
done
and
leading
the
way
and
find
the
resources
and
Al
Brown
at
smart
wave.
I
know
this
is
not
your
first
partnership
with
the
city.
There
have
been
several
and
I
think,
including
the
Convention
Center.
Is
that
right,
among
others,
yeah
and
I
just
want
to
say.
Thank
you,
I
know
it's
it
it's.
It
always
takes
more
work
working
with
public
agencies.
We've
got
a
lot
more
processes
to
get
through,
and
everything
else
and
I
just
really
appreciate.
A
All
that
smart
wave
is
done
to
just
step
up
and
provide
this
great
benefit
for
the
community,
so
thanks
al
and
then
of
the
entire
team,
certainly
Donen,
Rajan,
Ian
and
Rob
Lloyd
and
folks
who
are
helping
on
finance
Julia
and
her
team
and
the
budget
Jim
Shannon
and
Trina
santosha
on
my
team
and
everybody
has
been
working
so
hard.
It's
great
to
see
this
expand
to
over
felt.
We
want
to
continue
the
momentum
onto
your
babua
I
know,
there's
a
funding
gap.
A
We
knew
that
the
start
so
I'd
like
to
ask
a
little
bit
about
the
funding
gap
and
I
suspect.
We'll
delve
in
this
in
greater
detail
and
the
smart
city
committee,
so
several
of
us
will
hear
more,
but
given
the
fact
we've
got
public
agencies
involved,
we've
got
students
involved.
Does
that
constrain
our
ability
to
go
to
come?
A
Who
might
be
interested
in
providing
revenue
say,
for
example,
through
advertising?
You
know
with
a
splash
page
I'm,
not
suggesting
it
would
be
joule
but
perhaps
might
be
Snapple
is.
Is
there
an
opportunity
for
any
private
public
partnership
here
or
we
constrain
in
some
way
because
of
the
nature
of
the
audience
being
students
I.
M
Don't
know
if
there's
any
constraints
on
on
the
funding
and
in
fact
may
alright
and
it
would
be
spoilers
I
would
actually
we
wouldn't
have
a
November
7,
smart,
City
Committee.
If
I
told
you
what
we're
gonna
come
present,
but
we
do
have,
we
do
have
a
form
of
a
public-private
Elenita.
We
do
have
a
form
of
a
public-private
partnership
and
a
value
trade
that
we
think
gives
us
a
path
forward.
Okay
and
and
I
think
those
there
are
other
options
to
pursue
as
well
so
I
think,
historically,
we're
actually
haven't
spent.
M
A
I
appreciate
that
and
I
know
executing
wasn't
easy,
and
this
is
the
first
time
any
of
us
have
tried
this
and
so
I'm
grateful
that
we've
got
that
experience
now
behind
us
and
I
think
it'll
go
a
lot
faster,
great
to
see.
Five
terabytes
of
data
are
moving
through
the
Wi-Fi
system
and
I
know.
In
the
report,
staff
report
makes
mention
to
educational
websites
they're
actually
providing
some
content.
That's
a
good
thing.
How
do
we
know
what
share
of
that
five
terabytes
is
coming
from
fortnight,
as
opposed
to
I.
P
P
All
of
it
goes
through
all
the
normal
processes
that
we
use
it
the
district
to
make
sure
people
are
looking
at
things
that
are
highly
educational,
and
so
we
we've
done
a
pretty
good
look
at
that
data
and
we
are
very,
very
comfortable
with
what
kids
are
doing
on
there.
There's
not
as
much
fun
on
our
network
as
there
is
in
the
public
side,
but
the
fact
that
we're
moving
so
much
data
across
there
when
we
compare
it
to
the
data
that
they're
doing
at
school,
it's
commensurate
they're,
very
much.
A
P
Were
we're
confident
that
two
things
one
people
need
to
have
fun
in
order
an
educational
environment,
it
can't
be
all
work
and
no
play,
and
so
we
we
do
leave
some
things
available
for
kids,
but
at
the
same
time,
what
we're
seeing
is
when
we
see
the
spikes
in
behavior
on
the
data
network.
It's
during
the
prime
homework
times.
It's
all
the
things
we
really
want
in
the
middle
of
the
night.
It
drops
off
like
a
rock,
so
people
aren't
up
all
night
or
watching
movies,
or
anything
like
that.
So
great.
A
A
A
A
P
D
G
A
P
L
L
Looking
at
a
former
board
member
right
here
and
into
the
Eastside
voters,
who
also
matched
that
vision
and
voted
for
it
and
then
to
the
city,
to
Dolan,
for
your
team
for
providing
the
support
to
the
school
district
and
to
the
community
to
really
realize
the
vision
I'm
excited
about
over
felt
I
know,
council,
member
at
Ennis
who's.
Not
here
today
would
be
thrilled.
We
share
some
constituents,
anthropic
ghana,
lanai
and
the
valley
palms
neighborhood,
who
can
really
really
use
this,
and
it's
going
to
make
a
huge
difference
for
them.
L
I
am
disappointed,
though,
to
see
that
YB
lacks
access
due
to
the
1.6
million
funding
gap,
and
so
my
question
is:
have
we
considered
the
funds
from
the
California
emerging
technologies
fund
as
a
source
or
partial
source
for
the
funding
gap?
Because,
according
to
the
staff
report
from
to
the
council
meeting
earlier
this
year,
where
we
approved
it,
it
said
the
Digital
Inclusion
fund
is
anticipated
to
receive
32
million
over
ten
years
in
revenue.
So
it
seems
like
a
good
opportunity
for
funding,
so
I'm,
not
sure
who
would
answer
that
Dolan.
So.
M
Multiple
options
for
pursuing,
certainly
applying
to
the
state,
is
an
option
and
that's
on
the
radar
scope
applying
to
the
San
Jose
Digital
Inclusion
fund
is
an
option.
That's
on
the
radar
scope.
The
housing
department
has
some
funding,
that's
expiring,
that
it
has
some
federal
constraints
around
its
usage
and
we're
pursuing
that
and,
as
the
mayor
said,
there
may
be
other
opportunities
for
private
sector
partnerships,
so
we're
we're
actively
pursuing
all
the
above.
M
L
I
offer
my
help.
I
just
think
this
is
so
huge.
We
really
need
to
treat
it
that
way
and
just
to
kind
of
put
it
into
context.
This
funding
gap
is
almost
equal
to
one
day's
pay
for
the
Google
CEO,
who
earned
1.2
million
in
2018,
so
I
would
love
to
see
our
Silicon
Valley
partners
come
together
to
really
get
YB
online.
Thank
you.
Thank.
A
M
O
Yet
about
wayna
is
not
exactly
the
east
side,
but
is
that's
it's
as
close
as
East
I
can
be,
because
we
suffer
from
the
same
kinds
of
issues
when
I
was
on
the
board
I'm.
You
know,
and
the
idea
came
to
us
when
you
brought
the
idea
to
us.
It
was.
It
was
exciting.
It
was
new,
it
was
very
innovative.
It
was
very
creative.
O
So
we
knew
that
that
students
dependence
highly
on
on
getting
into
that
library,
so
they
could
finish
their
homework,
so
they
could
do
research
or
simply
expand
their
skills
and
and
read
more
or
access
the
world
through
that
monitor,
just
like
so
many
other
children
do
who
have
those
opportunities,
and
so
this
is
this-
is
this
is
exciting?
I
wouldn't
have
never
I,
never
would
have
thought
in
a
million
years
when
we're
working
through
this
and
getting
in
on
the
ballot
and
making
sure
that
our
voters
voted
for
it,
which
they
did.
O
Thankfully,
that
now
I'd
be
on
this
side.
You
know
at
the
city
working
on
the
same
issue
in
collaboration
with
and
watching
how
really
wonderful,
when
partnerships
do
come
together,
as
some
council
members
far
as
I
mentioned
magic
happens,
and
so
there's
an
opportunity
to
level
that
playing
field,
especially
for
our
students,
and
so,
if
we're
going
to
tell
them
that
the
ticket
to
the
American
Dream
or
the
ticket
to
a
better
life
or
a
ticket
out
of
poverty,
is
education
and
then
going
on
to
college
and
then
getting
a
really
great
career.
O
Then
we
have
to
be
able
to
provide
those
systems
in
that
infrastructure
that
permits
our
students
to
be
able
to
imagine
and
then
work
towards
the
goals
that
they
set
for
themselves.
We
believe
in
them
you
believe
in
them,
and
we
need
to
make
sure
that
they
believe
in
themselves,
but
what
a
disappointment
when
the
the
structures
not
there,
and
so
thank
you
so
much
for
working
so
diligently,
I
I,
do
want
to
ask
you
it's
along
the
same
lines
as
a
councilmember
Esparza,
because
I
love
over
felt
it's
a.
O
It
happens
to
neighbor
three
critical
communities
in
three
different
districts:
district,
five
district,
seven
district
8-
but
this
this
is
like
the
bulk
of
where
our
children
of
color
poverty
resides.
It's
been
generational,
poverty,
lack
of
access-
you
know
nine
miles
from
here
to
when
our
wonderful,
really
Silicon
Valley
companies
could
be
the
same,
could
be
the
same
as
traveling
from
here
to
Italy
or
France.
It's
that
far
away
for
some
of
our
kids.
O
O
Why
were
we
able
to
pass
it
back
in
in
2014
and
are
not
ready
to
take
on
that
second
school
until
2019
five
years
later,
for
some
of
these
kids
they've,
already
graduated
from
high
school
and
they're
and
others
are
about
to
so
they'll,
be
losing
out
on
these
opportunities?
How
do
we
hasten
this
step
and
make
sure
that
we're
catching
these
kids
before
the
opportunities
fought
through
their
fingers?.
M
Yeah
so
I'll
take
that
it's
largely
structural
I
think
if
we
all
look
back
at
what
we
passed
in
council
in
2016,
we
may
have
structured
it
differently.
We
were
required
to
do
the
technical
performance
and
the
educational
performance
and
a
technology
performance
and
come
back
and
that
took
longer
than
we
anticipated
and
longer
than
we
had
planned.
That's
done
so!
The
good
thing
is,
that's
done.
M
But
we
were
required
in
the
council
memos
who
actually
established
a
set
of
educational
baseline,
metrics,
that
we
could
measure
and
then
start
measuring
them,
and
so
some
of
it
was
dependent
upon
the
library's
work
with
the
county
to
actually
not
only
identify
metrics
but
then
be
able
to
actually
attain
those
metrics
and
have
useful
data.
So
again,
the
good
news
is
all
that's
behind
this.
So
now
it
really
is
the
funding
is,
is
the
only
thing
between
us
and
yerba
buena
enough
randy
has
anything
else
to
add,
but
that's
it
from
the
city
side.
M
O
Ok,
thank
you.
So
then,
then
it
really
is
about
figuring
out
how
to
get
that
funding
in
as
quickly
as
possible
and
I
know
that
that
can
take
a
while
as
well.
If
we're
applying
for
grants
and
and
waiting
for
the
state
to
respond.
So
some
mr.
city
manager
is
there
anything
that
we
could
do
and
then
possibly
work
on
a
reimbursement
basis
once
grants.
If
they
do
come
in.
D
M
O
O
So
we
know
that
and
also
that
there's
an
improvement
in
academics
and
so
surprise,
surprise,
right
or
I
should
say.
There's
really
no
surprise
there.
You
give
students,
smart
students,
intelligent
students,
strong-willed
students,
resilient
kids,
the
tools
that
they
need
and
they
will
be
successful
and
so
I.
O
Just
want
to
thank
you
again,
I
want
to
thank
you
again,
I
want
to
thank
you
Randy
for
for
the
work
that
you've
done
since
the
very
beginning
of
this.
It
was
exciting,
then-
and
it's
exciting
today,
to
see
that
the
results
are
what
we
like.
You
said,
someone
said
intuitively
what
we
felt
you
know
you
build
it
and
they
will
come
it's
not
that
we're
digitally
ignorant.
O
So
thank
you
also
mayor
for
the
commitment
of
your
staff
and
the
work
that
everybody
has
done,
but
again
I'm
thrilled
to
see
the
result.
I
think
it
can
only
get
better,
especially
for
families
that
this
is
their
first
generation
exposed
to
or
have
access
to
once
become
once
this
becomes
part
of
their
culture
and
it's
ingrained
in
our
neighborhoods
there's
no
telling
what
can
be
done
again.
You
you
shouldn't
be
confined
by
your
zip
code
in
terms
of
the
access,
especially
in
the
wealthiest
area,
of
probably
the
entire
country.
So
thank
you
so
much.
O
B
B
So
I'm
learning
that
the
e
bonds
were
the
trigger
funding
mechanism
to
enable
this
to
happen
in
East,
Side,
Union,
High,
School
District,
and
that's
fabulous
that
the
board
and
the
superintendent
and
staff
had
the
vision
there
to
bring
it
forward
and
then
that
the
community
had
the
awareness
and
understanding
of
how
important
it
is
to
have
technology
access
for
all
the
students
in
an
area
to
help
it.
So
they
can
have
the
tools
they
need
to
be
successful.
B
To
echo
the
words
of
councilmember,
Esparza
and
carrasco,
it,
the
access
to
the
tools
is
what
helps
make
these
students
successful.
There's
no
mystery
to
that.
But
it
aside
is
not
the
only
School
District
that
needs
help.
That's
not
the
only
place
our
kids
are
struggling
for
access.
So
what
can
we
do
and
I
understand?
We
have
a
1.4
million
dollar
deficit
for
this
fund,
but
how
do
we
partner?
How
do
we
work
with
other
school
districts
to
help
eliminate
the
digital
divide
in
their
districts
as
well?
B
Is
there
an
opportunity
there
for
us
to
use
this?
What
Eastside
has
done
as
a
model
for
other
school
districts
going
forward?
It
seems
like
all,
but
the
right
partnership
was
in
place,
it's
a
it's,
a
fabulous,
successful
outcome
of
a
partnership,
and
but
how
do
we?
How
do
we
enable
all
of
our
students
to
benefit
from
that.
P
That's
a
great
that's
a
first,
that's
a
great
lead-in
to
exactly
what
the
plan
was
all
along.
You
can
see
them
laughing,
so
I
work
very
closely
with
a
lot
of
the
districts
in
the
area
and
through
the
County
Office
of
Education.
We
meet
pretty
constantly
and
everyone's
been
watching
this
project.
Since
really
I
could
remember,
it
was
candidate.
Lekar
doe,
sitting
around
a
large
table
and
I
was
talking
about
this
idea
and
he
was
going.
How
would
this
work
across
the
whole
city
nice?
If
we
want
to
build
this
model?
P
And-
and
here
we
are
what's
great-
is
all
those
districts
have
been
watching
and
seeing
how
this
developed
and
they
were
like
once
you
get
the
roads
paved
and
once
you
get
this
figured
out
what
they
all
want
to
be
part
of
this,
because
they
want
to
give
the
same
benefit
to
their
students
into
their
neighborhoods
and
because
we're
a
high
school
district.
We
have
all
the
feeder
districts
that
feed
into
us
with
San
Jose
Unified,
which
I
know
extremely
well
in
it,
and
I
know
it's
close
to
Chris's
heart
as
well.
P
B
Humans
working
together
for
the
betterment
of
our
children,
and
you
could
see
in
the
video
that
they
created
how
empowered
they
were.
Thank
you
for
making
them
helping
them
to
be
empowered
and
to
understand
the
power
that
they
have
now
in
the
education
that
they
have
in
the
technology
that
you're
allowing
them
access
to
so
I
think
it's
tremendously
exciting.

Good
afternoon,
mayor
and
councilmembers
James
son
deputy
director
of
planning,
building
and
code
enforcement,
I'm
joined
by
Reggie
Williams
Assistant
Fire
Chief
and
Hector
Estrada
fire
marshal.
We
are
here
to
ask
the
council
for
approval
on
the
adoption
of
2019
California
codes
and
local
amendments
regarding
certain
seismic
design,
fire
sprinkler
regulations
and
other
building
and
requirements.
D
The
California
Building
Code,
commonly
known
as
title
24,
is
updated
by
California
Building
Standards
Commission
every
three
years,
based
on
2018
International,
Building
Code,
published
by
International
Code
Council
local
jurisdiction
must
adopt
the
California
Building
Standards
for
enforcement
within
180
days
of
publication,
and
many
amend
the
standards
as
necessary
to
address
a
local
geological,
topographical
and
climatic
conditions.
Trank
2019
Kozai,
effective
January,
1st
2024,
this
code
cycle.
You
are
looking
at
typical
building
and
fire
codes,
however,
for
both
Green
Building
Standards
and
energy.
Efficient
standards
have
been
adopted
through
the
rich
color
ordinance
in.
D
In
addition
to
the
code
adoption,
the
proposed
ordinance
will
update
previously
adopted
amendments
and
to
match
clinical
language
and
cross-reference
it
and
also
updated
municipal
code
to
reflect
the
2019
codes,
beauty
and
Fire
step
work
closely
with
other
Bay
Area
jurisdictions
by
participating
in
the
Tri
Chapter
code
committee
and
Santa
Clara
County
Fire
group
committee,
as
well
to
ensure
uniformity
in
application
of
these
local
amendments
as
best
as
possible
for
this
code
cycle.
There's
no
additional
amendment
to
the
2019
building
codes.
D
However,
staff
is
recommending
for
previously
adopted
building
amendments
which
are
increasing
seismic
separation
for
essential
and
large
assembly
buildings.
Special
inspection
for
isolated
footings
when
concrete
strength
is
greater
than
2400
pounds
per
square
inch,
restrict
the
use
of
Jibson
and
led
embracing
and
to
limit
the
use
of
Poland
cement
plaster
and
other
non
structural
materials
that
perform
historically
poorly
during
major
seismic
events,
now
I
hope
to
will
present
the
quote
fire
code
amendments.
Q
Thank
you,
James.
Our
recommendation
to
Council
is
that
we
adopt,
or
you
adopt,
the
2019
California
fire
code
to
adopt
a
2019
fire
code
standards
for
highly
toxic
and
toxic
gas,
with
amendments
which
replaced
the
toxic
gas
ordinance
amended
in
1778
and
is
currently
held
to
retain
and
update
local
amendments
to
match
the
2019
California
fire
code,
language
and
references.
We
also
recommend
to
retain
current
amendments
to
the
firefighter
breathing
air
replenishment
systems,
sprinkler
system
requirements
and
those
are
ordinances
that
are
working
for
our
community.
Now.
Fire
safety
standards
during
construction
specifications.
Q
Antenna
rule
fire
recommended
amendments,
we've
included
our
covering
3d
printing
additive
manufacturing.
This
provides
clarity
of
code
requirements,
distinguish
distinguishing
this
from
other
similar
processes,
lengthy
on
battery
storage,
to
update
the
quantity
of
lithium
batteries,
battery
storage
allowable
in
a
facility,
fire
suppression,
detection
and
alarm
systems
are
being
brought
to
the
2019
NFPA
standards
plant
extraction,
processing,
which
is
in
the
California
fire
code,
but
are
modified
to
bring
into
alignment
with
the
San
Jose
Municipal
Code
688
we're
also
defining
wildland
urban
interface
zones.
A
They
believe
are
equally
safe
or
safer
alternatives
and
that
may
impose
the
lesser
cost
on
building.
So
I've
had
some
conversations
with
the
fire
chief,
as
well
as
with
a
head
of
our
fire
union,
Sean
Kaldor,
and
so
there
seems
to
be
a
willingness
for
everyone
to
take
a
look
at
this
over
the
fresh
set
of
eyes.
So
I
appreciate
that
all
right,
any
comments
or
questions
can't
remember
cameras.
A
F
A
I'm,
certainly
not
the
expert,
but
what
I'm
told
is
that
fire
rated
elevators,
combined
with
different
procedures,
can
provide
the
needed
safety.
That
was
the
opinion
of
San
Francisco
when
they
ultimately
removed
the
requirement
from
their
code
and
allowed
it
to
be
as
an
alternative
use,
the
fire
rated
elevators,
but
again
I'm
I'm,
not
the
expert
and
I'd
rather
have
the
experts
go,
find
out
and
tell
us
yeah.
A
F
D
Q
E
E
Out
something
that
stood
out
to
me
that
I,
that
I
very
much
appreciate
in
the
language
that
you
provided,
where
it
states
the
safety
of
firefighters
and
the
occupants
she'll,
be
the
primary
and
overriding
consideration
for
any
assessment.
So
I
just
want
to
reiterate
that
that
I
think
that
that
should
be
the
lens
by
which
we
evaluate
this
stuff.
So
very
much
appreciate
that.
Thank.
A
Thank
you.
Everybody
all
right,
we'll
move
on
then
to
item
6.1,
which
is
design-build
contract
for
a
parking
garage
at
the
airport
and
John.
Is
here.
There's
no
presentation
but
I
do
have
a
question
John.
Sorry,
there
is
a
motion
and
a
second,
so
emotional
counts,
macam
a
second
but
cancel
my
process.
I'll
tell
you
the
questions.
You
come
down.
A
J
We're
prepping
the
building
to
handle
it.
The
ROI
doesn't
always
prove
out,
as
far
as
putting
up
the
panels
and
their
life
expectancy
of
generation
and
and
the
cost.
So
we're
approaching
that
hoping
that
there
might
be
different
panels
different.
You
know
life
expectancies
and
stuff
like
that
having
the
building
prepped,
for
it
means
that
when
that
moment
is
right
right
when
the
when
the
panel
life
it
can
can
get
past
its
return
on
investment,
then
it
becomes
that
right
thing
at
least
the
building's
wider.
J
A
J
Yeah
it
would
be,
and
that's
why
we're
putting
in
the
condo
is
because,
when
you're
retrofit,
then
you
have
like
drill
floors
and
run
things
vertically.
That'll
all
be
taken
care
of
in
this,
so
that
that
add-on
at
the
end
is
not
as
dramatic
as
here's.
An
existing
building
now
find
a
pathway,
rather
the
cables
to
go
so.
A
At
least
the
marginal
additional
cost
should
be
relatively
safe
right.
Okay,
that's
helpful
and
then
I
know
that
Hensel
Phelps
does
a
lot
of
good
work
for
us
as
they
have
building
the
airport
extension
and
phases
as
well
as
phase
one
as
well
as
Convention
Center,
I've
heard
some
rumblings
and
and
I
suppose
it's
a
reasonable
concern
for
other
contractors
who
might
say
hey
why
so
Phelps
getting
all
these
contracts
and
and
obviously
I
know
you
have
a
process
in
RFP
and
so
forth.
J
I
think
part
of
it
is.
There
has
been
a
few
construction
projects
that
they
haven't
gotten
and
and
I
think
that's
part
of
the
the
response.
I
think
the
other
part
is
knowing
that
that
concern
would
be
out
there.
You
know
as
soon
as
you
see
them
bid-
and
you
know,
they've
had
work
before
trying
to
make
sure
that
the
RFP
process
is
as
pure
as
possible.
I
mean
I.
J
Had
people
from
public
works
on
the
panel
who'd
never
worked
with
HP
before
we
brought
someone
in
from
SFO
who
hadn't
worked
with
them
before
and
and
so
there
was
I
had
some
of
my
staff
on
there,
but
I
needed
to
write
to
really
make
sure
that
that
this
project
would
move
forward.
But
we
tried
to
keep
the
panel
equally
pure
and
and
people
that
knew
HP,
and
so
the
voting
went
down.
I
reviewed
it.
J
D
K
Thank
you,
Marin
and
John.
Actually,
yeah
I
want
to
thank
first
of
all,
thank
you.
You
and
your
staff
for
answering
a
lot
of
our
questions
about
this
project
ahead
of
time.
But
since
you're
up
here,
I
might
ask
you
an
additional
question,
and
that
is
looking
at
your
monthly
activity
reports
we're
seeing
that,
even
though
you're
at
capacity
for
a
lot
of
your
Lots
that
overall
parking
is
actually
going
down.
K
J
Had
this
conversation
a
little
bit
when
we
came
and
got
the
design-build
permission
for
this
and
the
permission
to
put
out
the
RFP
and
since
that
time,
I've
asked
staff
to
to
dig
into
this
because
council
had
asked
me
to
you
know:
is
this
the
right
scale
it
to
the
right
size?
The
parking
exits
are
down
actually
because
there's
less
short-term
spots,
because
the
new
interim
facility
wiped
out
600
spots.
So
if
I
have
less
spots,
I
have
to
have
less
entrance
and
less
exits
because
there's
less
to
occupy
it.
J
The
Saturday
before
Columbus
Day,
which
is
normally
not
a
big
holiday
weekend.
We
ran
out
of
parking
period
for
almost
seven
hours.
We
were
shut
down
with
no
parking
available
for
seven
straight
hours,
the
following
Saturday,
which
was
not
even
a
holiday
weekend.
Every
lot
filled
up
just
not
all
of
them
at
that
same
moment
in
time,
and
so
we're
getting
to
the
point
where-
and
we
had
talked
about
this
a
little
bit.
J
J
What's
gonna
happen
in
Thanksgiving
here
in
less
than
a
month,
what's
gonna
happen
to
us
and
and
then
you
go
right
into
Christmas
and
in
all
of
a
sudden
I'm
at
16
million
passengers,
bye-bye
May
I
think
this
is
the
right
time.
I've
really
kind
of
it's
a
lot
of
money.
It's
it's
48
million
dollars,
so
I've
really
thought
about
this
with
staff
and
I'm
really
comfortable
telling
you.
This
is
the
right
time.
This
lot
will
get
used.
J
J
In
this
garage
we
looked
at
that
and
I,
don't
think
it's
the
right
thing
based
on
its
location,
it's
very
remote
out
on
the
long
term,
Island
that
kind
of
Guadalupe
River
101
87
island.
When
we
come
back
to
talk
about
a
in
the
terminal
area,
garage
I
think
you're
exactly
right,
make
the
floors
flat,
make
it
taller,
so
it
can
convert
to
office
complex
or
something
over
time.
J
A
J
A
Plates
and
so
forth
recognize
it
may
be
too
remote
for
our
office,
but
I
think
about,
for
example,
industrial
users,
warehouse
users
who
really
want
to
have
access
to
get
cargo
on
a
plane
or
something
like
that.
I
know
we're
not
a
big
cargo
Airport,
but
are
conceivable.
The
structure
can
be
at
least
altered
for
that
kind
of
use.
Well,.
J
That's
the
beauty
of
design-build
right
as
it's
not
designed
yet
yeah,
and
so
I
can
put
that
as
a
task
to
explore
to
a
point
where
we're
comfortable,
saying
it's
not
worth
the
extra
blank
dollars
to
do
that
and
and
and
then
proceed
with
what
I
feel
is
the
best
you
know:
cost
for
garage
kind
of
calculation.
Great,
that's
good!
J
A
H
Good
afternoon,
mayor
councilmembers
I'm,
the
director
of
community
energy
and
today
I'm
joined
by
Zach
strike,
he's
our
deputy
director
of
account
management,
marketing
and
communication
and
Kevin
me,
and
our
fuse
executive,
advisor
and
programs
lead.
Kevin
has
really
been
leading
this
effort
for
us
and
he
will
walk
us
through
the
presentation.
N
Good
afternoon
Meryl,
Accardo
and
council
members,
my
name
is
Kevin
Mian
and
I'm.
The
fuse
executive,
advisor
and
programs
lead
for
the
community
energy
department.
I'm
excited
to
present
to
you
today
the
background
and
implications
of
the
CAO
eVIP
project,
as
our
colleagues
and
environmental
services
have
previously
reported
in
their
climate.
Smart
plan
updates,
San
Jose's
greatest
source
of
emissions
is
increasingly
coming
from
the
transportation
sector
and
now
stands
at
62.8%
base
off
of
the
2017
greenhouse
gas
inventory.
N
The
climate
smart
plan
has
set
ambitious
reduction
in
emissions
reduction
targets
through
the
increased
adoption
of
electric
vehicles
for
the
passenger
vehicle
segment.
As
this
graphic
shows
from
the
plan,
I
wanted
to
first
provide
a
brief
introduction
on
the
different
type
of
Chargers
that
are
available
in
the
market.
In
the
market.
There
are
typically
three
types
of
Chargers
level.
One
charging
can
be
accessed
through
any
basic
120
volt
outlet,
but
normally
takes
a
much
longer
time
to
fully
charge
the
vehicle
level.
N
2
charging
requires
a
specific
240
volt
outlet
and
decreases
charge
times
anywhere
from
three
to
eight
hours,
depending
upon
the
electric
vehicle
fast
charge
are
normally
called
DC
fast.
Charging
is
the
fastest
charging
available
in
the
market.
These
stations
are
normally
installed
at
quarters,
such
as
highways
gas
stations,
airports
and
normally
can
charge
a
vehicle
in
30
to
60
minutes
to
give
an
introduction
on
the
cow
eVIP
project.
Cal
eVIP
stands
for
california,
electric
vehicle
infrastructure
project.
It
is
an
Eevee
charging
project
to
incentivize
level,
2
and
DC
fast
charging
based
off
of
regional
needs.
N
The
project
is
funded
by
the
California
Energy
Commission
and
is
implemented
by
the
Center
for
stenotype
sustainable
energy,
who
was
competitively
selected
through
a
bidding
process.
Thus
far,
Cali
VIP
is
funded
around
50
million
dollars
in
regional
projects
in
locations
such
as
Fresno
in
Sacramento,
County.
N
Cow
eVIP
is
typically
funded
on
a
county
level
based
off
of
California
Energy
Commission
requirements
and
due
to
the
interconnection
between
San,
Mateo
and
Santa
Clara
counties,
as
well
as
our
shared
focus
on
accelerating
evie
adoption.
The
following
list
of
Community
Choice
aggregators
in
municipal
owned
utilities
in
the
two
counties,
collaborated
together
to
make
a
proposal
to
the
California
Energy
Commission
to
start
a
project
in
our
two
counties.
N
Our
project
is
called
Peninsula,
Silicon
Valley
project,
and
there
are
two
type
of
sites
that
are
eligible
or
I'm.
Sorry,
the
following
is
the
eligible
sites
that
are
available
for
level
two
in
DC
fast
charging
stations
so
for
level
2
charging
these
will
typically
be
done
at
workplaces,
schools,
hospitals
and,
maybe,
more
importantly,
multifamily
dwellings.
The
key
thing
to
note
is
that
single-family
homes
are
not
eligible
to
receive
these
incentives
for
DC
fast
charging.
N
The
following
slide
gives
you
a
sense
of
California,
Energy
Commission,
as
well
as
partner,
planned
funding
levels
by
entity.
One
thing
to
note
is
that
the
partner
funding
levels
also
need
their
respective
board
or
City
Council
approvals
and
I
also
wanted
to
make
note
based
off
of
the
current
proposal.
The
California
Energy
Commission
will
be
planned
to
invest
10
million
in
the
city
of
San
Jose,
while
San
Jose,
clean
energy
will
invest
4
million,
giving
us
14
million
a
possible
incentives.
N
The
following
slide
gives
a
sense
of
the
anticipated
incentive
levels.
The
points
that
I
want
to
make
regarding
this
slide
is
that
for
both
level,
2
and
DC
fast
charging,
there
is
an
incentive
adder.
If
the
site
is
located
either
in
a
disadvantaged
community
or
low
income,
community
there's
also
an
incentive
adder
for
multi-unit
dwellings
that
are
going
to
be
investing
in
level
2
charging
projects.
N
The
following
slide
gives
you
a
sense
of
both
the
current
and
targeted
EB
charging
ports
in
2025,
and
this
comes
from
the
Department
of
Transportation
draft.
Electric
mobility
roadmap
in
orange
is
what
the
estimated
amount
of
charging
ports
that
are
available
after
Cali
VIP.
So,
while
not
reaching
the
target
in
2025,
Cali
VIP
does
help
us
to
get
much
closer.
N
So
the
following
slide
gives
you
a
sense
of
some
of
the
advantages
of
this
program.
It
includes
aligning
with
San
Jose
clean
energies,
program
guiding
principles.
It
is
a
one-time
opportunity
to
receive
match
funding
to
operate
a
electric
vehicle
charging
infrastructure
program.
We
have
an
experience
program
administrator
in
this
is
Center
for
sustainable
energy
that
is
operating.
These
programs
in
other
parts
of
the
state
and
the
project
is
aligned
with
the
actions
as
described
in
the
Department
of
Transportation
x'.
N
Electric
mobility
road
match
raft
so
quickly,
I
just
want
to
also
walk
through
in
the
next
two
slides
the
application
process
for
an
applicant.
So
for
a
level
2
charging
project,
the
applicant
will
first
upload
their
documents
onto
the
Cao
eVIP
portal.
The
CSE
will
check
those
documents.
If
they
all
work
out,
the
CSE
will
reserve
the
funds
and
the
applicant
will
have
nine
months
to
complete
the
project
when
they're
completed,
they
will
upload
those
documents
to
the
portal
and,
if
approved,
the
applicant
will
receive
a
rebate
check
based
off
of
their
location.
N
A
H
We
are
proposing
to
cost-share
our
person
of
the
funds
toward
the
latter
and
that
so
we
intend
to
hit
our
initial
operating
reserve
of
20
million
by
the
end
of
this
year
and
then,
by
the
end
of
the
fiscal
year,
we
intend
to
pay
off
the
commercial
paper
that
funded
and
we
are
on
track
to
do
that.
We
do
not
expect
that
this
participation
in
this
program
will
change
that,
but
the
full
180.
H
Yeah
I
mean
we
have
a
financial
performance,
including
where
PG
news
rates
are
going,
the
PCI
a
power
supply
cause,
and
our
projection
has
always
been
relatively
within
that
time
frame.
It
does
a
little
bit
delay
our
meeting
that
overall
180
days,
but
it's
a
pretty
small
portion
of
the
overall
operating
reserve
that
we
need
to
fund
and,
as
you
can
see
in
the
memo,
the
reason
we
are
recommending
proceeding
with
this
is
it's
a
pretty
unique
opportunity
where
we
couldn't
get
a
lot
of
state
funding
for
these
initiatives
totally.
C
Understand
and
I'm
supportive
of
this
I
just
want
to
be
clear.
Every
time
we
come
because
we
said
we
weren't
going
to
do
programs
until
we
hit
that
20
million
and
we're
doing
it
and
I
know
that
it's
it's
a
special
case,
but
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
we
don't
have
multiple
special
cases
and
we
never
get
to
that
operating
reserve.
That
were
that
we're
talking
about
for
180
days,
that
we
need
to
make
sure
that
we're
fully
functioning
and
financially
secure.
H
Thank
you
so
much
for
saying
that
I
share
that
that
concern
in
that
recommendation
and
we
will
definitely
stay
on
track
with
this.
This
was
an
opportunity
that
was
presented
to
us
from
the
other
CCA's
and
the
municipal
utilities
in
the
region,
and
we
know
near
that
they
were
proceeding
with
us.
It's
a
pretty
unique
opportunity,
and
certainly
we
could
have
sat
out
of
it,
but
that
would
have
meant
a
lot
less
dollars
coming
to
San
Jose
and
we
thought
that
this
was
a
unique
opportunity,
but
I
agree
with
you.
A
May
hit
replay
on
councillor
Davis's
comments,
because
I
know
that
each
of
us
on
this
dais
has
about
a
hundred
different
uses
for
all
the
money.
That
is
we're
imagining
it's
going
to
happen
from
San
Jose,
clean
energy.
So
thank
you
for
that
reminder.
I
do
agree,
though.
This
is
an
opportunistic
exception
that
we
just
had
to
take,
because
ten
million
dollars
to
be
sitting
on
the
table
without
it.
So
I
really
appreciate
staff
jumping
at
it.
Counselor
cameras.
F
Cautious
notes
any
given
Tuesday,
we
can
come
up
with
a
program
that
we
want
to
fund
I'm.
Also
I
actually
introduced
a
memo,
because
I
thought
that
this
could
actually
help
us
with
our
reach
codes,
because
we
we've
created
reach
codes
that
are
going
to
drive
up
the
cost
of
constructing
multi-unit
family
projects,
because
it
will
require
these
start
charging
stations
in
there.
So
we
drove
up
the
cost
and
I
have
to
say
I,
think
I'm
unless
I
unless
I
misunderstood
what
you
said
earlier
to
us
that
that
new
construction
cannot
apply
for
this.
F
H
F
So
yeah
I'm,
like
I,
am
a
little
concerned
that
we're
we're
putting
people
hurdles
in
in
the
way
of
new
construction
and
we're
not
giving
people
a
hand
up.
Is
there
any
way
to
ask
for
funds
from
these
same
agencies
to
help
our
people
who
are
willing
to
invest
in
new
construction?
That
is
not
necessarily
low-income.
H
We
can
advocate
that
at
the
California
Energy
Commission
and
we
are
also
working
on
our
programs
roadmap
that
will
come
before
council
in
the
spring
to
define
how
we
might
spend
any
additional
funds
that
we
have
in
the
later
years,
and
that's
something
certainly
we
could
consider.
But
in
the
short
term,
we
will
look
for
other
state
and
other
dollars
to
fund
that
need
as
well
yeah.
F
F
Okay,
good
yeah
I,
imagine
like
if
you
need
you
know,
I
do
have
an
electric
car
and
at
home
I
don't
use
it
very
often,
but
we
charge
it
every
night
and
places
where
we
need
evie
charging
would
be
it
like
shopping
malls
where
you
can
go,
have
dinner
and
spend
a
couple
hours
or
something
I
think
those
make
more
sense.
Is
there
a
priority
to
helping
those
projects
come
along?
We.
H
Could
certainly
do
outreach
to
those
types
of
of
projects.
That's
also
something
as
soon
as
a
clean-energy
were
very
interested
in
mainly
as
as
we've
talked
before,
about
the
duck
curve,
and
we
need
to
get
more
people
charging
during
the
day
and
certainly
shopping.
Centers
are
a
good
opportunity
for
that.
So
it's
something
we
can
market,
and
so
certainly
we
do
have
an
opportunity
to
market
and
outreach
to
those
types
of
services
and
to.
F
H
F
F
N
So
let's
say
that
it
is
a
shopping
center.
In
that
shopping
center
is
a
customer
of
San
Jose,
clean
energy.
We
will
increase
our
revenues
by
basically
providing
more
electrons
to
that
charging
station,
how
they,
how
the
individual
property
owner
decides
to
charge
the
customers
or
the
using
of
users
of
that
charging
station
is
really
up
to
them.
So,
for
example,
some
workplaces
will
not
charge
their
employees
and
will
cover
the
cost
and
basically
pay
San
Jose
clean
energy.
Some
will
pass
off
the
to
their
employees
or
their
customers
and
so
forth.
F
N
F
N
Typically,
based
off
of
meetings
that
we've
had
with
the
Center
for
sustainable
energy,
they
have
found
actually
DC
fast.
Charging
incentives
have
been
locked
up
within
months,
okay,
so
we
do
not
see
DC
fast
charging.
So
if
you
look
at
the
14
million,
seven
million
of
that
is
going
to
DC
fast
charging
based
off
of
market
demand
and
other
locations
that
even
have
less
Evie
adoption
in
San
Jose.
That
should
be
locked
up
quickly
in
the
case
of
level
2.
N
If
we're
finding
less
demand,
there's
a
way
for
us
to
adjust
our
marketing
our
approach
as
well
as
even
to
consider
how
to
allocate
that
funding
to
DC
fast
charging.
If
that's
what
the
demand
is,
so
we
are
market
responsive
at
the
end
of
the
day.
It's
the
market,
that's
asking
for
these
incentives
and
it's
first-come,
first-serve.
The
only
requirement
that
we
have
is
the
25
percent
of
the
total
is
going
to
go
to
disadvantage
in
local
communities.
F
Okay,
so
so
did
anybody
make
a
motion
yet
no
well.
So
if,
if
I
can
I'll
make
a
motion
that
you
also
outreach
to
businesses
to
so
basically
go
forward
with
your
recommendation
and
do
outreach
into
businesses
that
that
are,
that
can
benefit
the
most
from
this,
so
that
we
can
better
use
this.
Those
funds.
A
Okay,
there's
a
motion
in
second
I
said
one
quick
question
and
you
know
Kevin.
You
came
on
board
as
a
fuse,
fellow
and
you're
thinking
and
deep
on
these
issues
and
wondering
are
there
cities
out
there
that
figured
out
how
to
use
car
share
programs
to
expand
adoption
of
electric
vehicles
in
low-income
communities,
because
we
know
that
buying
any
car
as
a
barrier
for
low-income
residents?
So
it's
just
not
feasible
expected
that's.
How
we're
going
to
get
folks
out
of
the
internal
combustion
engines
and
into
into
cleaner
cars?
Is
anybody
doing
it
well.
N
I,
don't
think
so,
I
think
right
now
the
models
tend
to
be
pilots,
the
the
city.
That's
done
the
most
experiments,
you
can
say
Sacramento,
so
they
have
entities
such
as
envoy
that
are
doing
a
test
there
and
I
think
I.
Think
the
market
and
cities
are
still
it's
two
sides:
it's
how
to
get
people
to
use
the
vehicles.
What
is
the
right
feed
model
and
then
also
the
businesses
that
are
operating
these
car
sharing
companies,
it's
even
whether
they
have
a
viable
business.
N
Are
they
able
to
negotiate
terms
with
the
property
owners
and
charge
the
customers
in
a
way
that
can
kind
of
sustainably
cover
their
costs
and
also
expand?
I
can
tell
you
that
our
department
transportation
in
San
Jose
clean
energy.
We
work
very
closely
on
looking
at
the
different
opportunities
and
models
and
we're
actually
talking
with
one
of
those
companies
right
now
about
doing
potential
projects.
A
Okay,
thank
you
I'm,
just
thinking
is
we're
trying
to
I
was
trying
to
find
more
sites
to
build,
affordable
housing,
and
some
of
those
sites
are
not
going
to
be
transit
proximate
and
it
seems
to
me
the
solution
could
be
really
important,
so
I
know
there's
a
larger
conversation.
We
need
to
have
with
the
housing
department
and
others,
but
you
know
it
may
be
worth
investing.
A
Q
With
the
level
1
charging
level
2
charging
level,
what
that's
B
fast,
DC
charging
I
assume
it's
like
a
higher
voltage,
and
so
it's
quicker
because
of
the
time
just
as
a
matter
of
just
generic
batteries,
not
car
batteries.
But
if
I
take
like
my
iPhone
that
comes
with
a
5,
volt
charger
and
then
I
use
my
iPad
charger
to
charge
the
phone
with
the
10
volt
charger
I
believe
I'm,
diminishing
the
quality
of
the
battery
life
is
the
same
thing
true
for
cars,
so.
N
My
understanding
is
and
I'm
not
an
expert
on
this,
but
most
auto
OEMs
such
as
Chevy
or
Tesla,
will
not
allow
you
to
100%
drain
the
battery
and
a
hundred
percent
charge
the
battery
itself.
My
understanding
is
that
that's
where
you
get
the
most
degradation
from
so
they'll
kind
of
keep
a
window
in
which
you
can
charge
it
with
in
most
of
these
vehicles
are
new.
They
haven't
been
in
the
market
for
a
while,
but
I.
N
Think
some
of
the
Tesla
research
shows
that
there's
a
lot
longer
lifetime
of
batteries
than
we
think
so
use
the
Eevee's.
For
example,
more
and
more
Chevy
bolts
that
have
longer
ranges
are
coming
into
the
market
and
I
think
there's
a
really
good
opportunity
there
for
programs
related
to
use
electric
vehicles,
especially
the
ones
that
you
know
started
3
or
2
years
ago.
So
yeah,
ok,.
Q
With
the
14
millions
that
we're
gonna
put
towards
is
incentivizing
and
doubling
the
number
of
EB
Chargers
across
the
city,
that's
wonderful
news!
A
question
has
been
posed
to
me
that
do
we
know
if
that
people
will
be
charged
for
using
these,
will
there
be
free
ones,
you
know
Ray
etc.
Do
we
know
yet.
N
It's
again
dependent
upon
the
individual
property
owner
and
how
they
how
they
decide
to
charge
their
customers.
You
know
anecdotally,
I've
heard
word
places
some
workplaces
providing
free
charging.
That's
kind
of
like
a
employee
benefit
a
lot
of
ways,
but
I
think
most
of
what
we,
especially
when
we
talk
about
DC
fast
charging,
I
think
it's.
It
will
be
in
those
companies
business
models
to
pass
off
that
cost
electricity
costs
to
customers.
Okay,.
Q
N
Federal,
not
that
I'm
aware
of
I
wish
there
was
state,
so
the
primary
electric
vehicle
infrastructure
spending
has
been
through
PG&E,
their
electric
vehicle
charged
Network
program
that
was
actually
very
similar
to
Cow,
eVIP,
more
or
less
has
just
ran
out
of
funding
and
is
closing
down.
But
PG&E
also
has
two
other
charging
infrastructure
programs.
N
Q
So
I
don't
know
if
we
have
the
bandwidth
for
this,
but
I
would
like
it.
I
think
would
be
good
if
we
could
somehow
created
a
clearinghouse
a
one-stop
shop
if
we're
really
trying
to
Santa
buys
this,
and
we
know
that
one
applicant
can
benefit
from
this.
14
million
dollars,
plus
also
the
PG&E
program,
are
also
the
electrified
America.
Just
have
it
all
in
one
place,
so
they
know
that
I
can
actually
maximize
my
return
or
whatever
and
really
encourage
this
to
happen.
That
would
be
great
I.
N
O
Thank
you
so
much
I
think
that
this
is
an
exciting
step
for
the
city
of
San
Jose.
Just
a
couple
of
things.
One
is
I
I'm,
actually
pleased
to
see
that
25%
of
it
is
going
into
low-income
communities.
I
was
looking
up
at
the
numbers
of
the
amount
of
rebates.
Just
in
my
district
a
little
ninety
five
one,
two,
seven,
nine
five
one,
two,
two
nine
five
one
one
six
we're
not
the
the
primary
holders
of
Tesla's
or
well
I
was
gonna,
see
other
dog
mode
cars,
but
it
can
attest.
O
That's
the
only
one
that
has
it
right,
but
we
drive.
We
made
my
residents,
maybe
lower
income
than
some
other
areas
in
the
city
of
San
Jose,
but
we
drive
I
just
bought
a
hybrid
van
by
the
way,
it's
the
only
van
that
is
a
hybrid,
so
I
want
to
make
a
plug,
but
Chrysler's,
really
great
and
so
and
I
love
it,
but
I'm
struggling
to
charge
it
and
so
I
travel
throughout
the
whole
city
of
San,
Jose
and
I.
O
Don't
have
any
problems
when
I
go
into
Santana
row
or
when
I
go
into
Valley
Fair.
But
if
I
go
to
Tropicana
or
if
I
go
to
what's
now
ghandar
Owens,
which
used
to
be
my
Pueblo,
there's
no
place
for
me
to
charge
it
and
it
doesn't
have
a
great
you
know,
doesn't
have
100
miles
on
it
once
you
charge,
it
I
think
it's
30
miles,
because
it's
a
hybrid
and
I
bring
that
up
because
I'm,
you
know,
aside
from
being
a
council
member.
O
My
second
job
is,
you
know,
a
taxi
driver
for
my
children
and
so
I'm
driving
everywhere
and
I'm
using
that
car
quite
a
bit
and
that's
why
we
chose
to
get
a
hybrid
this
time,
but
but
I
just
wanted
to
say
that
even
if
it's
affordable
housing,
poor
people
drive,
so
let's
create
an
infrastructure.
That's
going
to
encourage
them
to
drive
a
vehicle.
That's
going
to
be
good
for
the
environment,
good
for
their
wallet
and
good
for
the
city
of
San,
Jose,
councilmember
cameras
III!
O
Here
your
your
concerns,
but
it
just
says
sometimes
it's
just
very
concerning
to
you-
know
to
think
that
any
of
us
up
here
still
think
that
poor
people
are
not
coming
into
modern
technology
or
needed,
or
that
we
don't
need
to
build
the
infrastructure.
We're
not
you
know,
riding
around
in
rickshaws
on
the
east
side
of
San
Jose.
You
know,
there's
a
lot
of
folks
that
that
have
it
and
when
I
looked
up
the
number
of
rebates.
O
In
my
zip
code
alone,
laughs
I
went
to
seven
nine
five,
one,
two
two
and
nine
five
one
one
six
again
we're
not
talking
the
city
of
San
other
areas
in
the
city
of
San
Jose,
but
there
was
seven
hundred
thirty-five
rebates
and
I.
Don't
know
if
it's
just
in
this
past
year
in
the
past
couple
of
years.
But
those
are
the
numbers
that
that
we
were
able
to
dig
up
so
it'd
be
nice.
O
If
we
we
could
have
offer
that
opportunity
for
families
and
again,
just
like
we
saw
with
the
last
item
on
the
digital
divide
in
once,
you
have
the
infrastructure
there.
You
see
it
explode
in
terms
of
its
use
and
folks
who
may
have
never
been
accustomed
to
it
suddenly
are
becoming
proficient
in
there.
Probably,
and
so
the
same
thing.
If
you
don't
have,
if
you
never
build
us
the
infrastructure,
then
we
can't
anticipate
there
are
residents
will
ever
be
able
to
use
that
kind
of
technology.
O
L
L
And
I
think
that
we
also
really
need
to
look
at
sort
of
leveling
the
infrastructure,
because,
if
we
don't
do
it
in
districts
like
five
and
seven
and
three
in
other
parts
of
the
city,
either
really
need
it.
But
although
the
map
is
pretty
clear
where
the
divide
is
that
they're
never
going
to
get
it,
they're
never
gonna
adopt
it
if
they
don't
have
access
to
it,
and
so
I
would
also
like
to
offer
my
assistance
I.
L
Think
it's
a
tremendous
opportunity
for
businesses
for
the
shopping,
centers
or
apartment
buildings
and
again
I,
would
love
it
for
the
businesses
along
Center,
Road,
Tully,
Road
McLaughlin.
There's
a
tremendous
opportunity
here
to
really
put
in
that
infrastructure
in
a
part
of
the
city,
to
make
it
that
much
easier
for
folks
to
be
able
to
to
use
that
technology
and
to
be
able
to
sustain
the
type
of
technology
and
instead
of
having
to
worry,
where
they're
going
to
charge
it
on
their
side
of
town.
So
so
yes,
I
offer
my
assistance
on
on
that
I.
F
F
For
this
one,
to
look
for
opportunities
for
grants
and
what-have-you
for
our
builders
of
all
kinds
of
housing.
Not
you
know
not
just
low-income
housing
but
all
kinds
of
housing,
so
that
our
saw
that
our
reach
codes
could
be
mitigated
and
we
incentivize
people
rather
than
putting
more
hurdles
in
their
way
and
I'm,
hoping
that
our
seconder
could
could
say.
Yes
to
that
addition
to
our
motion.
E
Discussion
of
topics
here
on
this,
but
I
really
want
to
appreciate
the
the
support
or
sounds
like
clean
energy
team
and
the
ability
to
get
these
dollars
and
look
forward
to
this
in
regards
to
the
the
sort
of
latest
exchange
I
felt,
it
was
important
to
mention
that,
even
if
say,
for
instance,
we
put
this
infrastructure
into
a
permanent,
supportive
housing,
so
development
for
formerly
homeless.
There
are
a
number
of
employees
that
work
in
those
facilities
as
well
and
a
lot
of
times.
E
That's
what
the
that's
actually,
what
the
parking
goes
to
is
for
the
employees
and
just
like
me,
when
I
parked
my
plug-in
Prius
here
down
in
the
charging
spots,
your
place
of
work
is
a
great
place
to
be
charging
your
vehicle.
So
it's
also,
you
know
other
opportunities
that
I
think
that
it
may
not
readily
come
to
mind.
Is
that
the
first
thought
but
I
believe
in
the
you
know,
sort
of
the
same
goals?
The
that
you
know
that
this
grant
is
attempting
to
achieve
with
the
focus
on
new
development
for
only
for
affordable
housing.
C
Thank
you
good
evening,
council
members,
my
name
is
Alex
Carvalho
and
I'm
here
to
speak
on
the
electrical
vehicle
infrastructure
project.
Firstly,
myself
as
well
as
many
other
San
Jose
residents,
absolutely
support
this
investment
in
electrical
vehicle
supply
equipment
or
what
you
guys
know
as
charging
stations.
However,
the
city
would
be
remiss
if
we
did
not
if,
when
we
were
making
these
types
of
investments
in
for
infrastructure,
we
did
not
use
electric
electrical
vehicle
infrastructure.
Train
programs
certified
electricians
to
install
this
work.
C
That
creates
power,
but
these
are
the
things
that
need
to
be
known
by
the
people
that
are
working
on
this
infrastructure,
especially
when
you
talk
about
it
being
at
places
like
schools
or
businesses
or
homes
where
there
are
people
living,
and
there
are
people
that
could
suffer
huge
consequences
from
poor,
poor
infrastructure
building.
You
know
safety
comes
to
especially
Public
Safety.
C
One
night
when
I
think
about
all
work
being
done
in
the
city
of
San
Jose,
that's
the
first
thing
that
comes
to
my
mind
and
for
us
to
be
able
to
really
focus
on
Public
Safety.
It's
not
just
police
and
fire
is
also
making
sure
that
the
places
that
our
residents
live
and
where
our
children
go
to
school
are
being
built
by
certified
and
trained
workers
who
know
what
they're
doing
you
know
the
ITP
program,
which
the
certification
that
I
was
talking
about.
C
It
there's
a
lot
of
stakeholders
in
the
industry
in
including
automobile
manufacturers,
BMW
Toyota,
GM
manufacturers
of
the
actual
stations
themselves,
like
clipper
card
pep
stations,
the
state
and
local
electrical
inspectors
that
follow
under
the
NFPA,
the
National
Fire
Protection
Association.
These
are
all
groups
that
actually
support
the
EBIT
program.
There
are
also
president's
precedents
all
across
the
state
of
California,
as
well
as
nationally
the
Port
of
Long
Beach
in
relation
with
the
California
Energy
Commission.
This
is
our
Long
Beach
themselves:
arson
Pico,
Rivera,
sir.
A
G
Good
afternoon,
mayor
and
council
I'm
NAT
Fukuda
assistant
director
of
I
know
Services
Department
I
am
here
with
Mariana
Chavez
Vasquez,
our
deputy
director
for
the
RWS
capital
program,
as
well
as
Simon
elder
our
consultant
program
manager
and
then
map
Kano
Director
of
Public
Works.
We
have
a
short
presentation
for
you
and
I.
R
R
So
if
I
start
with
the
project
location
and
overview,
the
notification
clarifiers
are
situated
at
the
southern
end
of
the
regional
wastewater
facility.
The
clarifiers
are
this
total
of
sixteen.
In
two
batteries
a
battery
a
and
battery
B,
it's
probably
helpful
to
explain
the
function
of
a
clarifier,
the
clarifiers
that
we
have
at
a
facility
or
circular
concrete
settling
tanks
that
separate
suspended
solids
from
wastewater
by
gravity
as
part
of
the
biological
treatment
process.
Settled
solids
known
as
sludge,
a
mechanically
collected
by
the
rotating
suction
header
from
the
clarifier
bottom.
R
Lighter
pollutants
such
as
oil
and
grease
known
as
scum,
are
skimmed
from
the
wastewater
surface
and
clarified
effluent
flows
over
a
weir
to
the
filters.
Our
clarifiers
are
140
foot
in
diameter,
16
foot
deep
and
they
were
built
in
the
70s
and
the
80s.
A
condition
assessment
was
performed
in
2017,
which
shows
showing
that
many
components
of
the
clarifiers
and
control
equipment
are
nearing
the
end
of
their
useful
life
and
in
poor
condition
and
require
replacement
or
excessive
maintenance.
R
We've
got
a
series
of
slides
just
to
show
you
the
condition
of
the
existing
clarifiers.
The
first
of
these
is
the
clarifier
mechanism.
Each
clarifier
has
a
mechanism
which
is
coated
steel
and
because
it's
coated
steel,
it
requires
frequent
recoating
and
excessive
maintenance,
as
you
can
see
from
the
photo
on
the
slide
there.
This
particular
mechanism
was
severely
corroded
at
the
base.
In
fact,
we've
had
some
clarifies
that
have
been
taken
out
of
service
due
to
the
corroded
nature
of
the
clarifying
mechanisms.
R
The
next
slide
illustrates
the
concrete
repairs
that
we're
going
to
be
performing
on
the
16
clarifiers.
The
condition
assessment
also
indicated
that
the
overall
clarifier
structure
is
in
good
shape,
but
there
were
a
number
of
cracking
cracks
on
the
surface
of
each
clarifier
that
need
to
be
repaired
through
an
injected
sealing
material
process
and
the
approximate
length
of
all
cracks
is
around
about
5,000
linear
foot.
R
We
also
are
rehabilitating
ground
water
pressure
relief
valves,
which
you
can
see
in
the
photos
here.
Each
clarifier
has
30
of
these
valves
around
the
perimeter.
The
purpose
of
the
valve
is
to
prevent
the
clarifier
when
it's
empty
from
being
uplifted
by
excessive
groundwater
pressure
due
to
a
high
water
table,
the
condition
assessment
revealed.
A
number
of
these
valves
were
in
poor
operation
due
to
clogging
and
corrosion,
and
so
the
project
will
replace
all
of
the
valves
and
all
16
clarifiers.
R
We
also
will
be
repairing
24
inch
for
tuned
activated
sludge
lines.
We
performed
a
CCTV
inspection
of
these
lines,
which
indicated,
as
you
can
see,
from
the
photos,
some
leaking
and
some
separated
joints.
We
identified
that
we
will
need
to
replace
or
line
three
of
these
rad
lines,
and
we
also
are
going
to
have
the
contractor
perform
additional
inspections
on
the
remaining
five
to
determine
if
they
will
need
to
be
lined
as
part
of
this
project
as
well.
R
We
are
also
replacing
influent
drain
and
return
activated,
sludge
valves
and
electrical
equipment.
The
atop
left
photo
on
this
slide
shows
a
condition
of
a
butterfly
valve
which
should
rotate
to
seal
and
enclose
the
pipe.
As
you
can
see,
it's
in
pretty
poor
condition,
which
makes
it
difficult
to
operate
and
for
the
sealing
to
occur,
and
then
the
other
two
photos
show
some
of
the
corrosion
that
we
have
on
electrical
panels
and
conduits.
In
terms
of
the
summary
of
bid
results,
we
received.
Well,
we
pre-qualified
six
contractors
and
received
four
bids.
R
The
engineer's
estimate
for
this
project
is
43
million,
with
bids
ranging
from
26
to
38
million
the
lowest
bidder
was
see
over
in
company.
We
did
look
into
the
reason
for
the
lowest
bid
coming
in
quite
lower
than
the
engineer's
estimate,
and
we
feel
as
a
number
of
reasons
for
this
one.
The
mechanisms
that
I
was
just
explaining
before
did
come
in
lower
than
the
engineer's
estimate
had
assumed
and
I.
Think
part
of
that
was
due
to
the
competitive
nature
of
the
bidding,
as
well
as
what
we
call
bid
day.
R
Pricing
when
quotes
typically
come
in
lower
than
the
budget
quotes
that
we'll
get
when
we
pull
the
estimate
together
also
see
over
and
company
are
already
at
the
facility
working
on
two
projects:
the
cogeneration
facility
and
advanced
velocity
control
and
meter
replacement
project,
and
as
because
of
this,
it's
likely
that
they
were
able
to
save
on
mobilization
in
supervision
and
overhead
cost,
because
they
already
have.
You
already
have
a
presence
on
site.
R
R
In
terms
of
the
project
cost
total
project
cost
is
forty
five
point:
seven
million,
as
I
mentioned
constructions
at
twenty
six
point
to
project
delivery,
which
consists
of
the
design,
the
project,
management,
construction
management
and
other
things
such
as
environmental,
permitting
is
about
fourteen
point
three
million
and
we're
proposing
a
construction
contingency
of
5.2
million,
which
is
twenty
percent
of
the
construction
amount.
This
is
slightly
more
than
our
typical
15
percent,
and
this
really
reflects
the
complexity
of
the
project.
R
The
challenge
is
that
we're
going
to
be
facing
in
terms
of
utility
conflicts,
project
interfaces,
the
arised
lines
which
will
be
which
will
be
worked
on
in
a
confined
space,
and
then
the
overall
complex
work
sequencing
of
the
project
and
trying
to
fit
it
into
that
summer.
Season
that
I
was
talking
about
before
we
did
do
some
benchmarking
against
other
Bay
Area
projects.
The
challenge
is
always
to
find
an
apples
to
apples
comparison.
A
K
Some
of
our
questions
in
advance,
but
I
just
want
to
just
kind
of
loop
back
on
our
questions
about
small
business
participation.
Can
you
kind
of
walk
you
through
some
of
the
barriers
or
challenges
that
you've
had
or
having
in
terms
of
either
breaking
off
smaller
contracts
for
this
type
of
work
or
having
relationship
with
the
prime
and
subcontractors
as
it
relates
to
small
business.
D
Sure
and
then
yeah
I
know
you
have
small
businesses,
but
I
do
want
to
mention
something
in
our
memo:
I'm
a
Vera
who
is
the
company
recommending
awarding
to,
we
do
say
they're
from
Richmond
and
that's
where
their
headquarters
is,
but
they
do
have
a
local
San
Jose
office.
So
we
do
consider
to
consider
them
a
local
business
as
a
prime
contractor
for
this
award
and
they
as
our
current
city
policies,
we
don't
require
any
thresholds
for
local
subcontractors
to
be
used.
It's
really
at
the
option
of
the
prime
contractor.
D
For
example,
'auvairs
website
has
a
place
where,
if
you're
a
subcontractor,
you
can
go
onto
their
website
and
to
be
pre-qualified
with
them,
and
so
that's
something
that
we're
really
just
getting
into
that
a
little
more
right
now
and
trying
to
set
up
those
systems
with
Environmental,
Services
and
Public
Works,
and
it's
something
we
want
to
continue
to
push.
But
as
far
as
breaking
the
project
up,
this
is
one.
You
know
this
is
a
tough
project
to
break
up.
D
K
G
S
S
D
That's
something
we
can
continue
to
talk
about
with
the
regional
wastewater
facility.
In
particular,
we
follow
state
law
for
a
lot
of
our
requirements,
so
we'd
have
to
look
into
that
and
but,
as
we
continue
to
report
annually
to
the
Community
Economic
Development
Committee
on
the
success
of
our
or
not
of
our
local
and
small
business
participation,
our
hope
is
that
the
techniques
were
using
to
network
and
mentor
and
Link
companies
together
will
and
where
we
can
take
apart
our
designs
to
allow
smaller
contractors
to
be
able
to
bid
as
primes.
D
We
hope
that
those
methods
that
we
talked
about
with
our
public
works
academy
and
what
the
regional
wastewater
facilities
already
been
doing
for
a
while
will
will
help
solve
that
problem.
If
not,
we
could
go
to
sort
of
certain
policy
requirements
and
percentages
of
local
contractors
in
the
future.
Well,.
K
F
F
S
One
of
the
reasons
why
we're
doing
these
a
lot
of
the
work
that
we
have
to
do
involves
underground
piping.
We
have
had
a
lot
of
experiences
recently
with
problems
with
our
underground
piping
because
of
the
operation.
We
couldn't
investigate
fully
all
of
that
piping
because
of
being
able
to
take
these
units
out
of
service.
So
we
know
that
we
may
find
a
little
more
than
what
we
thought,
so
we
just
want
to
be
able
to
have
that
money
available.
S
If
we
need
to
there
is,
as
was
mentioned,
there
is
some
component
in
this
project
that
is
at
time
concern.
So
we
can
just
do
this
one
in
the
dry
season,
so
it's
only
like
the
six
months
that
we
suffer
in
the
summer.
So
if
we
need
to
go
ahead
and
make
any
repairs,
we
need
to
be
able
to
do
it
at
that
time.
So
we
all
just
want
to
have
that
money
in
reserve
in
case
we
need
it
and
we
don't
have
to
come
back
and
ask
for
it.
F
S
F
A
Q
Thank
You
mayor
and
council
I'm
Daniel
Rigby
president
and
operations
officer
of
San
Jose
can
rescue
I
come
for
you
today,
since
1969
we've
been
here
for
the
city
for
the
members
for
the
for
everyone
for
the
county
from
when
the
team
was
founded
back
in
1969
till
now,
and
now
we
need
our.
We
need
your
help.
For
the
last
three
years,
we've
gone
without
any
type
of
a
Memorandum
of
a
Memorandum
of
Understanding.
The
old
office
of
emergency
service
had
back
in
the
80s
consolidated
with
San
Jose
Fire.
Q
We
came
under
San
Jose
fire
and
our
last
Memorandum
of
Understanding
has
been
since
1981
three
years
ago,
when
the
council.
Finally
refunded
funded
the
office
of
emergency
services.
We
came
back
under
them
now,
since
they've
been
changed
over
to
the
Office
of
Emergency
Management
we've
been
left
without
any
type
of
help.
We've
tried
with
the
city's
fire
department
or
we're
still
waiting
for
any
type
of
contact
with
the
police
department.
Q
Our
problem
is
we're
coming
to
a
crossroad,
we're
not
going
to
be
able
to
provide
any
more
services
that
we
use
to
all
on
a
voluntary
basis.
We've
received
no
monetary
support
from
San
Jose
or
from
any.
We
have
one
grant
every
year
that
pays
roughly
our
insurance
and
maintenance
and
fuel
costs
for
the
donated
server
surveyed
vehicles
that
the
city
of
San
Jose
has
been
donating
to
us,
but
that
was
12
years
ago
when
we
last
had
it
had
any
type
of
service
or
any
type
of
response.
Q
At
this
time,
we're
not
able
to
take,
we
will
not
be
able
to
take
and
ask
or
be
able
to
take
and
help
with
the
police
departments
call
for
walk
away,
Alzheimer's
or
even
saving
someone
at
the
annual
Turkey
Trot.
When
the
event
comes
and
back
our
other
problem
is,
we
need
a
permanent
home
to
think
it.
A
Q
A
I
T
Hi,
thank
you.
I'm
a
senior
citizen
and
I
wanted
to
report
and
ask
for
an
investigation
to
be
made
at
this
property.
I
went
to
apply
for
senior
building
on
Coleman
and
San
Jose,
and
the
rent
was
1594
September.
Last
month,
two
weeks
later,
I
am
a
housing
authority,
section
8
person.
Two
weeks
later
mayor,
they
raised
the
rent
from
fifteen
ninety
four
to
twenty
to
thirty
four,
a
six
hundred
and
forty
dollar
increase
within
a
two-week
period.
I
called
housing
to
speak
to
a
supervisor
and
they
told
me
they
are
aware
of
the
problem.
T
My
brother
just
died,
I'm
in
a
two-bedroom
I
have
to
get
out
by
next
month.
My
only
option
now
is
to
go
into
a
shelter
because
I
work
in
home
service,
I,
take
care
of
seniors
and
I
can't
afford.
My
check
will
not
allow
me
to
pay
what
house
and
it's
telling
me
to
pay
so
I'm
gonna
wind
up
in
a
shelter
myself
and
I,
just
wanted
to
say,
I
have
the
proof,
the
section
eight
list
to
show
they
went
from
fifteen.
Ninety
four
to
two.
T
Thirty,
four
and
I
just
wanted
to
report
that
merrier,
you
know,
and
I
and
I
follow
miss
Davis
and
Johnny
on
TV
and
also
you
mayor,
I
watched
you
last
night
matter
of
fact
channel
two
about
the
homeless,
but
I
just
want
someone
to
investigate
them,
raising
rent
from
six
hundred
and
forty
dollars
in
two
weeks,
because
they
know
housing
will
pay
twenty
to
thirty
four.
They
have
six
sister
buildings,
so
all
of
the
buildings
is
gonna
wind
up
going
from
1594
to
234
ma'am.
