C
Thank
you
today,
we'll
have
a
little
different
presentation
for
our
invocation.
Councilmember
Foley
is
going
to
tell
us
about
the
District
9
star
recipients.
C
C
This
is
a
little
departure
from
your
typical
invocation,
but
I've
been
doing
this
for
four
years
or
for
three
years.
This
is
my
fourth
year
and
I'm
just
going
to
continue
on
with
that,
because
I
like
showing
people
and
awarding
people
for
doing
good
things.
So,
every
year
since
I
assumed
office
as
part
of
my
invocation
responsibilities
for
the
month
of
October,
I
honor
members
of
the
community
for
work,
they
do
to
make
life
better
for
those
around
them.
C
This
award
is
called
the
District
9
Stars.
This
is
tradition
that
was
started
by
one
of
my
predecessors.
Vice
mayor,
Judy
churco.
She
was
city,
council,
member,
three
p
three
council
members
ago,
I
think
and
I'm
really
honored
to
continue
this
in
her
Legacy
former
vice
mayor,
Judy
Turco
introduced
the
d-9
Stars
program.
She
when
she
was
in
office
to
highlight
the
generosity
of
our
neighbors,
who
go
out
of
their
way
to
make
a
positive
difference
in
D9
and
throughout
our
community.
C
Each
year
we
ask
our
residents
to
nominate
those
in
their
Community
Who
Make
a
Difference
by
quietly
going
about
their
work
to
make
our
community
better
than
the
day
before
my
team
and
I
review
these
submissions
and
make
the
selections.
We
look
forward
to
reading
all
the
stories
that
are
submitted
about
these
unsung
heroes.
C
This
is
now
my
fourth
year
carrying
on
the
tradition
of
recognizing
those
that
spread:
positivity,
altruism,
Joy,
love
and
kindness
in
our
own
corner
of
San
Jose.
So
for
today's
presentation,
I
proudly
present
this
year's
District
9,
star
recipients
and
the
mayor.
You've
already
done
your
job,
which
is
Distributing
the
accommodations
way
to
go,
and
please-
and
we
have
a
little
treat
for
them
too.
So
I'm
going
to
tell
you
a
little
bit
about
each
of
them.
C
The
first
is
Andrew
Goldberg
Andrew
was
nominated
by
Jill
Travis
Andy
Andrew
brings
smiles
to
the
community
as
a
Creator
and
teacher
through
music,
Art
and
Science
Andrew
teaches
free
saxophone
lessons
to
middle
school
students
so
that
no
child
faces
Financial
barriers,
preventing
them
from
learning
how
to
play
music
and
he's
only
a
senior
in
high
school.
Isn't
that
awesome
during
the
pandemic
he
printed
and
delivered
over
300
hand-printed
figurines
to
nursing
homes
and
a
children's
hospital
to
let
those
people
know
that
someone
was
thinking
about
them.
C
He
utilized
his
3D
printing
skills
to
create
safety
guards
for
all
the
teachers
in
the
Campbell
Union
High
School
District,
to
prevent
teachers
from
hitting
their
emergency
buttons
on
their
classroom.
Phones.
Andrew
has
also
led
a
hackathon
for
the
district
sure
about
that.
One
Andrew,
where
students,
maybe
you
have
a
job
with
our
I.T
Department
later
on,
where
students
get
together
on
one
small
team
to
create
a
coding
project.
C
C
Next
I'd
like
to
introduce
you
to
Melissa
oycheck,
she
was
nominated
by
Don
Clavin
I,
think
I,
mispronounced
clavon,
clavon
Melissa
leads
the
Cambrian
Educational
Foundation,
a
group
of
volunteers
dedicated
to
raising
funds
to
provide
students
with
enrichment
programs
necessary
to
create
well-rounded
educations
that
prepare
them
for
success.
As
a
busy
parent
herself,
she
has
been
an
outspoken
proponent
of
Cambrian,
school
district
and
Community
carving
out
time
to
prioritize
other
families
in
the
district.
C
She
leads
an
annual
fundraiser
and
Community
Building
readathon
event,
which
supports
Mental
Health
Resources
across
the
district
and
has
raised
over
55
000
in
the
past
two
years.
She's
made
it
a
priority
to
be
a
bridge
builder
and
collaborator,
who
puts
Children
First
and
helps
make
a
true
impact
on
the
community
I'm
honored.
To
thank
her
today
for
her
tireless
efforts
to
improve.
B
B
After
I
read
this
last
one,
you
can
sense
a
theme
that
they
are
all
supporting
children
in
some
way,
shape
or
form.
So
the
final
awardee
this
year
is
Viviana
Barnwell.
She
was
nominated
by
Laura
Chavez
Viviana,
advocated
for
families
of
children
with
disabilities,
to
support
inclusion
and
access
to
services
and
by
ensuring
that
the
experience
of
people
with
disabilities
are
shared
and
included
in
discussions.
D
D
E
E
E
All
right
council
member
crosco
is
with
us
remotely
and
I
know
she
would
like
to
recognize
and
Proclaim
filipino-american
History
Month.
We
were
just
having
a
wonderful
flag
raising
event
last
week
and
welcome
to
our
community
members.
Take
it
away
councilmember
Carrasco.
If
you're
able
to
hear.
E
Thank
you
so
much
and
thank
you.
I
I
want
to
welcome
everybody
who's
joining
us
today
and
just
mentioned
that
council
member
sparza
is
doing
me
the
favor
of
presenting
the
Commendation
more
than
anything
because
I'm
so
grateful
to
be
able
to
have
this
opportunity
and
I
wanted
to
make
sure
that
someone
was
there
presenting.
So
I
want
to
thank
council
member
farza
for
doing
that.
E
Thank
you,
councilmember
Carrasco
hello.
My
name
is
Maya
sparza
council
member
for
district
7
and
filling
in
today
for
council
member
Magdalena
Carrasco,
who
LED
this
effort.
Wonderful
effort.
I
just
can
is
unable
to
be
to
join
us
in
person
today.
E
These
are
just
some
of
the
icons
that
have
cemented
the
philam
talent
into
the
great
tapestry
of
our
country,
and
our
country
and
region
owe
the
filipino-american
community
a
great
debt
of
gratitude.
It
was
those
labor
leaders
like
Larry
itliong,
Philip
Veracruz
and
the
menongs,
who
played
a
pivotal
role
in
the
labor
strikes
and
great
boycotts.
They
organized
groups
of
Filipinos
to
strike
against
the
grape
Growers
of
Delano
California,
alongside
Mexican-American
leaders,
Dolores
Huerta
and
Cesar
Chavez,
thus
revolutionizing
socio-economic
relations
between
Filipinos,
Mexicanos,
Chicanos
and
many
other
workers
that
will
last
decades.
F
Park
and
excited
to
share
that
the
Delano
menong's
Park
is
now
open
to
the
public
located
at
the
corner
of
jamali
way
and
Beechnut
drive.
This
park
provides
a
super
fun
playground,
tons
of
seating
and
an
intractable
sign,
sharing
the
history
of
the
thousands
of
Filipino
Farm
Workers,
who
organized
and
participated
into
the
in
the
1965
Delano
grape
strike,
and
here
in
San
Jose.
F
We
recognize
and
honor
the
work
of
those
in
the
canneries
in
the
fields
the
trades
are
First
Responders
and
our
laborers
everywhere,
and
especially
we'd
like
to
share
our
gratitude
to
the
philam
nurses,
who
selflessly
helped
our
community
heal
and
make
it
through
the
brunt
of
the
pandemic.
This
was
especially
important
for
the
east
side
of
San
Jose,
who
experienced
the
highest
rate
of
infection
and
death
in
the
county.
We
mourn
those
you
who
have
lost
and
profusely.
Thank
you
for
your
service
and
what
a
joy
to
present
today's
Proclamation.
F
Where
is
he
to
the
city's
own
Ron

and
former
D7

commissioner,

the
Filipino
Americans

Sj
has
been
working
Round

Clock
to

that
our
filipino-american
community
is
well
equipped
to

Council
member
Carrasco
and
our
whole
city
council
are
extremely
grateful
for
the
presence
you've
all
developed
here
in
San
Jose.
F
F
And
if
you
don't
know,
our
community
is
a
significant
part
of
service
to
the
city
of
San,
Jose
I'm
in
my
10th
month
and
proud
to
be
now
serving
the
city
of
San
Jose
as
the
Arts
industry
support
director
in
the
office
of
Economic,
Development
and
cultural
Affairs.
So
I'm
now
on
the
other
side,
because
when
I
used
to
accept
this
award,
I
accepted
it
as
a
community
member
which
I
do
representing
the
entire
Community.
F
But
it
means
even
more
now
that
I'm,
an
employee
of
the
city
of
San,
Jose
I,
just
want
to
share
with
you
a
couple
of
Milestones
one
is
that
the
filipino-american
National
Historical
Society
funds,
we're
celebrating
50
years
of
filipino-american
studies.
F
That's
significant
40
Years
of
filipino-american
National,
Historical
Society,
the
organization
and
30
years
of
filipino-american
History
Month
and
the
city
of
San.
Jose
was
one
of
the
first
Bay
Area
cities
I
get
a
little
emotional
to
acknowledge
the
Filipino
community
and
Filipino
American
History
Month
through
a
flag
raising
and
through
a
celebration.
F
B
E
Graciously
acknowledged
filipino-american,
History,
Month,
nationally
and
I
want
to
share
with
all
of
you,
a
portion
from
the
letter
throughout
our
nation's
history.
Filipino
Americans
have
played
an
essential
role
in
writing.
The
American
story
from
serving
our
country
in
uniform
starting
new
businesses
and
advocating
for
workers
rights
working
on
the
front
lines
of
the
pandemic
as
healthcare
workers,
First,
Responders
and
Educators
Filipino
Americans
have
always
worked
to
make
our
country
free
and
fair,
strong,
Noble
and
whole
when
Filipino
American
history
is
preserved
and
shared.
E
E
But
we're
going
to
welcome
members
of
the
Franklin
McKinley
School
District
to
join
us
for
accommodation.
E
E
F
H
F
F
400
households
to
keep
our
residents
in
their
homes
I'd
like
to
thank
in
particular
superintendent,
Juan
Cruz
and
the
Franklin
McKinley
School
Board
of
Trustees,
and
we
have
four
of
them
with
us.
Today
we
have
maimona
asphal,
Berta,
Rudy,
Rodriguez,
Manuel,
Martinez
and
George
Sanchez.
Thank
you
for
being
with
us
today.
So.
B
Honored
to
present
them
with
this
Commendation
and
I'd
like
to
invite
I,
don't
know
who's
going
to
say
a
few
words
on
behalf
of
the
school
district.
B
G
Of
San
Jose
and
provide
the
the
admissions
center
available
to
our
residents,
many
of
our
residents
in.
C
The
Franklin
McKinney
school
district
are
low
income
and
in
need
of
help-
and
this
is
another
service-
that
the
district
offices
is
able
to
provide
the
our
the
parents
of
many
of
our
school
children
and-
and
we
really
appreciate
this
partnership
and
we
absolutely
have
an
an
outstanding
superintendent
who
is
able
to
coordinate
the
partnership
and
the
effectiveness
of
the
eviction.
Center.
So
I
do
invite
superintendent
Cruz
to
come
forward
and
say
a
few
words
if
you'd
like
foreign.
C
Thank
you.
You
know
one
of
the
things
that
we
we
strive
in
Frankie,
McKinley
and
with
the
support
of
our
board,
is
to
make
our
school
district,
our
schools
The
Hub
of
the
community,
and
this
is
one
way
that
we
can
do
that
by
bringing
the
resources
into
the
community
to
break
down
the
barriers
and
of
access
to
our
families,
and
so
we're
always
eager
and
willing
to
provide
the
space
in
the
partnership
with
the
city,
and
so
we
continue.
We
hope
to
continue
that
partnership.
Thank
you
very
much.
Thank
you.
C
Right
I
see
council
member
Foley
lurking,
so
that
means
she's
up.
Next
we
are
going
to
recognize
and
Proclaim
National
disability,
employment,
Awareness,
Month,
yeah
lurking.
C
When
this
celebration
began
in
1945
as
just
a
week-long
celebration,
it
was
called
National
employee,
the
physically
handicapped
week.
The
removal
of
the
word
physically
happened
almost
20
years
after
the
first
celebration
before
Congress
officially
expanded
the
week
to
a
month
and
became
the
name.
We
now
know
today
to
acknowledge
individuals
with
all
types
of
disabilities.
C
Environmental
and
attitudinal
barriers
have
led
to
stereotyping,
discrimination
and
ableism
when
it
comes
to
the
employment
process.
For
many
of
these
individuals
and
I
want
to
share
a
statistic
with
you:
if
disabled
workers
experience
the
same
employment
rate
at
those
without
a
disability,
nearly
14
million
more
persons
with
a
disability
would
have
been
employed
in
2021
14
million.
C
Imagine
that
number
that's
staggering
number
of
folks
with
disabilities
who
are
not
able
to
get
jobs
or
verify,
find
it
very
difficult
to
get
jobs
today,
as
we
continue
to
rebuild
an
economy
that
is
still
recovering
from
the
pandemic.
We
must
remember
that
this
cannot
be
completed
without
the
inclusion
of
the
talent
and
drive
of
these
individuals
with
disabilities.
D
So
while
we
have
already
made
great
strides
toward
an
environment
that
advocates
for
these
individuals
in
the
workplace,
we
must
also
consider
the
diversity
of
this
group.
This
diverse
group
crosses
lines
of
age,
ethnicity,
gender
race,
sexual
orientation
and
socioeconomic
status,
all
of
which
contribute
further
to
the
inequity
of
opportunities.
Individuals
with
disabilities
already
face
with
this
Proclamation
I
want
to
reaffirm
the
city
of
San
Jose's
dedication
to
ensuring
barrier-free
access
and
opportunities
for
all.
We
will
continue
to
take
steps
throughout
the
year
to
recruit,
hire,
retain
and
Advance
individuals
with
disabilities.
D
We
will
continue
to
ensure
that
our
workplace
promote
courteousness
and
mindfulness
of
differing
needs.
Every
individual
deserves
a
work
environment
that
provides
them
the
ability
to
equally
participate
comfortably
and
effectively
today
I'm
proud
to
have
suanne
rinta,
Maya,
berricker,
barricat
and
Blanca
Nara
Lara
here
from
Hope
Services
hope
service
is
silicon.

agency-wide

I
Working
and
I
think,
as
you
heard,
it's
employing
people
with
developmental
disabilities
is
again
an
incredibly
underserved
population
and
we're
hope
this
is
our
70th
year.
The
providing
service
is
a
Hope
Services.
We're
celebrating
our
70th
anniversary
and
employment
has
always
been
key
to
our
mission,
so
I
would
definitely
sort
of
sort
of
challenge
you
to
really
those
of
you
that
are
doing
employment.
Look
at
your
employment
Workforce,
look
at
how
diversity
just
really
empowers
and
improves.
I
Any
Workforce
makes
your
employee
employee
site
better
and
here
at
Hope,
we'd
be
more
than
happy
to
I'm,
going
to
kind
of
get
that
little
plug
out
there
for
any
employers
that
are
looking
to
meet
your
hiring
needs
right
now,
I
know
it's
difficult
to
find
employees.
We
have
ready
enable
workers
that
want
to
contribute
to
your
to
your
team.
Energy
would
just
be
phenomenal
additions
to
your
Workforce,
so
definitely
reach
out
to
agencies
like
Hope,
Services
or
other
agencies.
Again,
we're
really
looking
to
absolutely
can
fill
your
your
employment
needs
and
again.
I
Thank
you
very
much
for
this.
This
Proclamation
and
honor.
I
Okay
for
pedestrian
safety
month
National
pedestrian
safety
month,
the
vice
minor
chappie
Jones
is
demonstrating
by
walking
up
here
how
to
safely.
Please
yeah
take
it
over
vice
mayor
Jones.
Thank
you.
I
D
I,
along
with
the
mayor
and
council
members,
Cohen
and
Foley
have
brought
forward
some
recommendations
that
focus
on
traffic
safety
in
our
school
zones.
These
recommendations
will
be
considered
tomorrow
at
2
pm
by
the
rules
committee
as
an
effort
to
recognize
the
importance
of
pedestrian
safety.
We
are
here
today
to
recognize
October
as
National
pedestrian
safety
month
as
determined
by
the
U.S
Department
of
Transportation
in
2019.
D
D
J
So
I
just
had
a
few
words.
Those
of
you
that
know
me
know.
I
always
have
a
few
words,
so
thank
you
vice
mayor
Jones,
not
only
for
this,
but
for
your
partnership
with
the
district
mayor,
licardo
and
San
Jose
City
Council,
as
was
already
mentioned,
our
school
district,
our
castlemont
elementary
school
community,
of
whom
I
have
the
principal
Kristen
Prindle
here
with
me,
suffered
a
great
loss
as
little
Jacob
Villanueva
tragically
had
his
beautiful
eight-year-old
life
cut
short
as
he
did.
J
We
all
have
a
role
to
play
in
ensuring
that
everyone
crossing
a
street
can
do
so
without
threat
of
life
or
even
worse,
life-ending
tragedy,
although
this
is
a
complicated
issue
that
neither
cities
or
school
districts
can
solve
a
loan
by
working
together,
we
can
work
to
make
sure
San.
Jose
is
one
of
the
safest
cities
for
pedestrians.
In
our
County,
lastly,
before
closing,
I
would
also
like
to
thank
vice
mayor
Jones
for
his
leadership
in
leading
the
charge
to
bring
forth
a
memo
that
begins
the
process
of
prioritizing
safe
routes
to
school.
J
J
B
D
B
To
the
fiscal
year
annual
action
plan
for
transfer,
neighborhood
stabilization
program,
income
funds
to
cdbg
for
eligible
uses,
so
that
would
be
dropped
and
I
assume
we
agendized
another
week.
Are
there
any
other
changes?
The
council
has
to
the
printed
agenda
and
I'm
going
to
ask
Grace
or
Tony
if
they
could
look
online
to
see.
If
there
are
any
of
my
colleagues
are
raising
their
hands,
there's
no
hands.
Okay,.
D
All
right
on
to
the
closed.
G
N
B
B
B
Looking
at
the
hands,
I
see
no
colleagues
who
are
raising
their
hands
either,
and
is
that
2.82
for
separate
consideration
or
just
for
comment?
I
guess
just
for
a
common
question.
I
intend
to
vote
for
it.
Okay,
so
that
way,
I'm
just
asking
based
on
public
comment:
oh
I
see
yeah.
So
if
it's
just
a
comment.
O
Then
we'll
just
do
all
together.
Okay,
why
don't
we
take
public
comment
then
this
time,
and
this
is
for
the
full
consent
calendar?
That's
right,
Matthew
Tinsley,.
O
B
B
L
B
B
Okay,
back
to
the
council,
great
I
just
wanted
to
pull
item
2.8
for
a
couple,
quick
questions.
If
Jennifer
someone
from
employee
relations
might
be
available,
I
I
know
that
there's
been
a
lot
of
focus
on
how
we
can
address
the.
B
Officers
and
on
this
police,
lateral
incentive,
which
I
very.
B
Is
challenges
with
recruiting
and
and
retention
sure
Jennifer
shambry
Director
of
Human
Resources.
L
With
recruiting.
D
E
B
B
Laterals,
that
is
some
current
officers
from
other
departments.
Is
that
true?
Yes,
we
have
had
a
believe
about
six
laterals
so
far
this
year
and
I
do
believe
there
are
some
in
the
pipeline.
The
police
chief
is
here,
may
have
better
numbers
than
I
do.
But
that's
what
my
recollection
is
that's
great.
Thank.
K
D
I
Just
steal
each
other's
officers
and
I'm
just
wondering.
G
How
how
do
we
prevent
this
from
becoming
that
where
cities
are
simply
re,
upping
the
the
ante
to
recruit
other
officers?
G
Do
you
mean
increasing
the
lateral
incentive
yeah
to
the
point
where
it
just
becomes
somewhat
counterproductive
at
some
point?
Well,
I
think
we'll
have
to
monitor
that,
but
I
don't
think
a
lateral
is
going
to
come
here
only
for
this
incentive.
I
think
that
there's
a
lot
of
that
San
Jose
offers
that
other
agencies,
don't
that
would
attract
people
to
come
over
here.
This
is
just
one
kind
of
addition
to
that:
okay,
great
well,
thank
you
very
much
appreciate
your
work.
G
All
right
is
there
a
motion
on
the
consent,
calendar
move
approval
second
motion
and
second
council
member
spars
it
and
then
Foley,
don't
see
any
hands
for
comments.
So,
let's
vote
Jimenez.
G
Hi
crosco
Davis
Esparza,
yes,
arenas
bully
I,
mayhand
aye
Jones
Ricardo
aye.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
all
right.
Let's
go
to
the
report
of
the
city
manager
Jennifer.
Thank
you.
Mary
I
have
no
report
today.
All
right,
succinct
as
always
item
3.3
is
the
C
manager's
annual
report.
There
will
be
a
presentation.
G
Thank
you
very
much,
Jennifer
good
afternoon,
mayor
members
of
the
city
council.
Again,
my
name
is
Jim
Shannon
I'm,
a
city's
budget
director
I'm
joined
up
here
by
Bonnie
Duong,
our
assistant
director,
Selena
ubando,
our
financial
status
coordinator
and
Bryce
ball,
our
operating
budget
coordinator.
So
a
big
component
of
the
senior
management
team
here
today.
So
together
we're
going
to
provide
a
brief
overview
of
the
city's
2122
annual
report,
which
com
which
complies
with
the
city
Charter
and
the
city
manager's
vehicle
for
summarizing
and
analyzing
City's
budget
performance
for
the
preceding
fiscal
year.
G
The
Brevard
is
pretty
technical,
but
it
does
provide
a
very
comprehensive
budget
to
actual
comparison
of
revenues
and
expenditures
and
each
budget
fund
for
the
last
year
and
as
appropriate
explanations
concerning
material
differences
between
those
amounts.
It
also
provides
the
city
council,
with
the
comparison
of
estimated,
actual
ending
fund
balances
for
all
funds,
as
well
as
a
summary
of
the
2122
year,
end
reserves
by
fund
and
then
based
on
this
analysis
of
Prior
year
performance,
updated
information,
the
current
fiscal
year
and
past
direction
from
the
city
council.
G
Okay,
great
so
I
did
there.
It
goes.
G
There
we
go
so
overall
Revenue
performed
generally
as
expected
and
on
overall
basis
expenditures
ended
the
year
within
or
below
the
budget.
The
the
general
fund
had
a
surplus,
along
with
most
other
funds
that
ended
the
year
at
balances
above
or
at
estimated
levels,
and
when
we
look
at
and
we'll
talk
more
about
the
general
fund
a
little
bit
later,
but
after
rebudgets
and
cleanups,
the
general
fund
fund
balance
was
about
1.6
percent
of
the
modified
budget,
which
is
a
pretty
pretty
close,
close
call
and
we're
gonna.
G
As
part
of
our
analysis,
we're
you
know,
we'll
be
recommending
various
actions
in
2022
2023
to
close
out
2122
adjust
the
current
budget
as
necessary
in
accordance
with
city
council
policy,
1-18
recognize
a
variety
of
Grants
and
reimbursements,
and
then
we
do
have
a
few
urgent
needs
in
the
general
fund
and
in
a
few
special
and
capital
funds
that
we'll
talk
about
a
little
bit
later
here.
G
Just
one
of
just
a
couple
of
quick
highlights
on
the
big
picture,
economic
conditions,
there's
a
lot
of
things
that
we
monitor
in
the
budget
office,
but
but
do
want
to
just
highlight
a
couple
of
them
here.
One
of
them
is
employment,
and
you
can
see
from
this
graph
here
that
we
are
sort
of
back
to
pre-pandemic
employment
levels
as
of
the
end
of
June.
G
Obviously,
the
economic
picture
is
changing,
so
this
is
definitely
we're
going
to
keep
an
eye
on
it,
but
it's
it's
definitely
notable
that
we're
we're
above
pre-pandemic
levels
and
even
when
you
look
at
our
unemployment
rate
of
2.3
percent
back
in
June
is
is
below
where
we
were
before
the
pandemic
and
above
the
prior
years
of
5.5
percent.
G
Real
estate,
as
folks
know,
was
really
strong
for
all
of
2021
and
for
this
the
first
half
of
21
20
22-
and
you
can
see
it
on
this
graph
here
that
looks
at
medium
home
prices
as
well
as
property
sales.
There's
a
really
good
barometer
of
how
the
real
estate
market
is
going.
So
this
at
the
end
of
June,
the
single
family,
medium
home,
was
1.6
million,
which
was
5.6
percent
above
what
it
was
in
the
prior
at
that
same
time
last
year,
but
sales
certainly
have
fallen
off
over.
G
You
know
from
the
January
to
June
period,
sales
were
down
about
12
percent
from
where
they
were
from
the
prior
year.
So
as
the
FED
raises,
the
interest
rates
and
the
corresponding
mortgage
rates
rise,
that's
definitely
going
to
have
an
impact
on
the
real
estate
market,
as
will
potentially
any
other
economic
impacts
in
the
valley,
so
we'll
definitely
be
keeping
an
eye
on
this
as
we
go
forward.
G
Looking
specifically
at
some
of
the
revenues
in
the
general
fund,
which
kind
of
shows
our
top
four
here
and
really
as
property
tax
and
sales
tax
goes.
So
it
goes
to
the
general
fund.
Those
were
all
performing
well
in
21
20,
22
and
utility
tax
and
business
tax
a
little
bit
more
steady
there
and
we'll
talk
about
those
in
just
a
moment.
I
just
wanted
to
kind
of
show
the
big
picture
there
between
the
properties
and
sales
tax
and
sort
of
everything
else
kind
of
doing
a
year-over-year
comparison.
This
is
kind
of
an
interesting.
H
H
You
know
particularly
we'll
just
mention
sales
sales
tax,
where
which
is
a
really
tricky
one
for
us.
So
you
know,
Selena
over
here
is
responsible
for
most
of
the
general
fund.
Revenue
s
estimates,
although
we
arm
wrestle
over
a
few
of
them
sales
tax.
We
really
went
back
and
forth
on
because
we
got
some
information
in
May
of
2022
based
on
the
performance
of
January,
February
and
March,
and
so
we
had
sort
of
20
quarter
over
quarter
growth
over
already
really
heavy
growth
and
so
okay.
H
Well,
what's
the
fourth
Corner
going
to
look
like
because
we
don't
get
that
data
actually
until
August,
and
so
it
really
went
back
and
forth
back
and
forth
and
we
ended
up
being
really
good.
So
we
called
that
within
sixty
thousand
dollars,
so
that
was
pretty
pretty
impressive
there
on
sales
tax.
H
We
were
a
little
bit
and
we
had
a
little
bit
extra
in
the
various
other
categories
compared
to
the
budget
to
the
estimate,
but
that
was
good
because
you
might
remember.
Last
year
we
had
a
we
were
here.
Last
year
we
had
a
huge
surge
in
sales
tax
growth
that
caught
us
all
by
surprise.
So
this
this
year
we
had
a
little
bit
more
of
a
warning
and
were
able
to
plan
for
it
as
part
of
our
budget
process.
A
couple
other
things
to
note
here:
a
business
tax.
H
You
see
a
pretty
big
jump
there
in
business
tax.
That's
mostly
because
of
the
card
rooms
were
fully
operational
in
21,
20,
22
fees
and
charges
is
the
same
thing.
So
we
had
a
lot
of
programs
that
weren't
really
operating
and
now
in
2122
they
were
similarly
with
fines
and
penalties.
We
had
some
parking.
Citations
was
the
biggest
driver
there
tot
actually
ended
the
year
better
than
we
thought,
which
is
good.
So
we
had
a
year
investment
of
9
million.
H
H
That's
really
influenced
by
how
large
Property
Transfers
go
so
we'll
have
to
really
keep
a
close
eye
on
that
and
I'm
going
to
turn
this
over
to
Bonnie
thanks
Jim
end
of
the
year
with
a
gross
fund,
balance
of
559
million
dollars,
of
which
51.4
million
dollars
was
above
the
estimate
that
we
had
used
to
develop
the
2223
adopted
budget.
This
represents
2.4
percent
of
the
modified
budget.
H
So
of
the
additional
fund
balance
that
was
left
over
this
is
the
proposed
allocation
of
that
fund.
Balance
started
off
with
51.4
million
dollars
and
then,
after
all,
the
required
adjustments
of
17.6
million
dollars.
We
had
fund
balance
of
33.7
million
dollars.
That's
recommended
to
be
allocated
by
19
million
dollars
for
the
required
technical
rebalancing
actions
and
those
actions
align
already
with
approved
Revenue
estimates
and
expenditure
adjustments
with
the
most
current
tracking
information.
H
Reallocates
funding
for
ongoing
Appropriations
based
on
updated
needs
and
information,
corrects
technical
issues
from
2223
adopted
budget
or
complies
with
actions
previously
authorized
by
city
council.
Then
the
next.
The
next
category
we
have
is
Grants
reimbursements
and
fee
activities
which
resulted
in
it's
a
net
zero
action.
But
it
resulted
in
a
net
reduction
of
125
000.
In
both
the
expenditure
side
and
the
revenue
side,
then
we
allocated
4.5
million
dollars
to
two
urgent
fiscal
and
program
needs
which
we'll
discuss
later
on,
which
then
leaves
a
remaining
fund
balance
about
10.4
million
dollars.
H
H
So
of
the
19
million
dollars,
that's
allocated
for
required
technical
rebalancing
actions
here
on
the
slide
is
just
a
list
of
some
of
the
larger
adjustments
that
we're
recommending
five
million
dollars
to
the
contingency
reserve,
which
brings
it
from
41
million
dollars
to
46
million
dollars,
and
this
is
in
accordance
with
Council
policy
1-18,
which
provides
for
the
maintenance
of
a
minimum
three
percent
contingency
reserve
in
the
general
fund
to
meet
unexpected
circumstances
arising
from
Financial
or
public
emergencies.
That
requires
immediate
funding.
H
H
The
next
item
here
is
the
3.8
million
dollars
that
has
been
set
aside
in
the
fire
station
and
ffme
Reserve,
and
this
is
also
in
accordance
with
the
mayor's
budget
message
with
direction
from
the
mayor's
budget
message
that
sets
the
size
available.
Excess
general
fund,
ending
fund
balance
to
help
address
future
cost
overruns
anticipated
from
these
measure.
T
Capital
Improvement
projects
for
fire
stations,
So
Fire,
Station,
8,
23,
32
and
36,
and
the
911
call
center
upgrade.
Projects
are
tentatively
scheduled
to
be
completed
within
the
next
five
years.
As.
G
Of
spring,
the
projects
were
anticipated
to
exceed
their
current
budget
allocation
by
a
total
of
two
to
four
million
dollars
and
anticipated
to
need
an
additional
five
million
dollars
for
ffme.
So
that
brings
the
total
cost
to
overrun
to
about
seven
to
nine
million
dollars
and
with
this
adjustment
of
the
3.8,
it
helps
bring
that
down
that
that
need
down.
G
Rehabilitation

this
one

program.
G
Great
thanks
Bonnie.
So
all
the
things
that
Bonnie
just
went
over
were
required.
We
call
required
technical
or
rebalancing
actions,
things
that
we
sort
of
have
to
do
as
long
as
there's
resources
there
to
do
it
as
well
as
prior
Council
direction.
We
we
do
have
a
couple
of
items
that
the
city
manager
is
recommending
as
an
urgent
and
fiscal
program
need.
That
would
normally
be
brought
forward
as
part
of
the
proposed
budget
process,
but
we
think
they
they're
really
important
and
need
to
be
brought
forward
now.
G
G
You
know,
policy
and
program
processes
to
sort
of
get
at
the
the
challenges
that
we
are
dealing
with
here,
and
so
we
do
have
three
million
dollars
that
is
set
aside
to
be
able
to
address
issues
that
we
have
past
Council
Direction
on
including
potential
issues
related
to
an
RV
parking
ordinance
and
manage
RV
RV
parking.
Some
security
after
abatements
have
taken
place.
G
So
we
don't
need
to
do
that.
Look
to
allocate
funding
to
the
budget
stabilization
Reserve,
trying
to
get
up
to
an
overall
general
fund,
Reserve
level
of
10
of
10
percent,
and
also
to
look
at
our
unmet,
deferred
infrastructure
needs
and
So.
Based
on
that
we're
coming
forward
with
a
recommendation
of
7.6
million
here
for
the
budget.
Stabilization
Reserve
would
take
that
Reserve
up.
O
G
Million
dollars
and
when
you
combine
that,
with
the
general
workers,
compensation,
liability
reserve
and
our
contingency
reserve,
the
Bonnie
talked
about,
will
you
be
at
a
level
of
about
eight
percent
in
the
general
fund?
I
mean
kind
of
the
highest
in
memory
really
and
which
is
a
really
good
place
to
be
at
when
you
think
about
all
of
our
general
purpose
reserves,
especially
as
we
start
heading
into
potentially
recessionary
period,
And.
So
having
that
backside
top
is
super
important.
G
It
was
also
a
little
bit
of
unfinished
business
that
Council
directed
us
as
part
of
the
March
budget
message
to
set
aside
funding
in
the
budget
stabilization
Reserve.
We
did
some,
but
we
really
needed
to
do
more,
and
so
this
gets
us
much
much
closer,
and
then
we
do
have
2.8
million
dollars
going
into
the
ITC
fund
reserve
for
a
total
amount.
Now
6.5
million
dollars.
One
of
the
primary
uses
of
that
is
to
eventually
replace
our
FMS
and
Erp
system,
which
is
going
to
cost
more
than
20
million.
G
And
just
a
couple
touching
points
on
a
couple:
other
major
city
operations:
we
have
the
airport
definitely
had
a
pretty
good
bounce
back,
Year
from
where
it
was
in
the
pandemic.
So
passenger
activity
increased
by
over
130
percent
and
revenue
performance
exceeded
the
budget
estimates
by
over
six
six
million,
and
we've
got
a
pretty
healthy
passenger
activity
projected
for
22-23.
So
good
news.
G
B
A
A
downward
slope,
those
are
revenues
generated
from
private
development
construction,
and
so
you
know,
ended
the
year
sort
of
at
budget,
maybe
a
little
bit
better,
but
we
ended
up
taking
that
budget
down
over
the
course
of
the
year.
So
we
need
to
keep
an
eye
on
that
downward
Trend.
The
gray
bars
is
the
construction
and
conveyance
tax
heavily
influenced,
of
course,
by
the
real
estate
market
super
strong
year,
a
record
year
in
21
20
22.
A
We
expect
that
to
come
down
pretty
significantly
in
2223
I
think
we
have
an
estimate
of
50
million.
50
million
I
mean
it
came
in
about
65.,
and
then
we
have
just
a
number
of
other
I
mean
a
number,
a
bunch
of
other
cleanups
and
recommended
adjustments
throughout
all
of
our
City's
funds
that
we
did
all
of
our
closeout
analysis.
Maybe
just
a
couple
others
that
I'll
highlight
is
because
tot
did
come
in
better.
A
We
do
have
some
adjustments
in
the
tot
fund,
because
we
had
sort
of
2.3
million
dollars
of
Revenue
in
the
toot
fund,
which
enables
us
to
allocate
some
additional
funding
back
to
the
convention,
cultural
Affairs
fund
or
fund
5536.
A
So
I
think
with
that
is
quite
a
bit
we'll
we'll
pause
here
and
just
again
want
to
thank
our
senior
management
team
and
everybody
in
the
budget
office.
Who
puts
I
mean
this
document
comes
together
in
about
three
and
a
half
weeks,
and
so
really
just
really
appreciative
of
my
team
and
all
the
department
staff
who
works
with
us
to
put
this
document
together.
Thank
you.
A
A
All
right
put
a
Beekman
here,
thanks
for
your
mid-october
meeting
today,
I
guess
to
start
off
just
a
thank
you.
You
know
for
this
item
a
yearly
report.
D
I
I've
SPO.
There
were
a
lot
of.
P
Items
on
the
consent
calendar
that
I've
spoken
about
over
the
past
few
weeks.
That
I
hope
you
can
remember
at
this
time
and
can
be
useful
to
yourselves
and
how
you
voted
for
the
consent
calendar
of
it
for
its
items.
With
that
said
this,
this
report,
it's
offered
a
nice
broad
range
of
City
programs
that
you'll
be
working
on
in
this
past
year
and
hopefully
in
the
2023
to
quickly
offer
I'm
real
sorry
about
the
events
of
for
deaths.
P
That
have
happened
this
past
week
around
pedestrian
issues
and
tomorrow's
meeting
around
Vision.
Zero
issues
will
be
really
helpful
and
important.
I
think,
and
you
guys
know
my
feelings
about
the
importance
of
having
open,
accountable
public
policies
and
practices
along
with
the
technology
and
and
when
you
do
those
things
together
in
what
will
be
possibly
a
year
in
this
year
and
the
next
year
of
a
lot
more
surveillance
technology
than
previous
years,
and
it's
budgeting
good
luck!
How
we
talk
about
open.
D
B
Have
to
be
a
fearful
subject
and
that's
that's
an
important
concept.
I
hope
we
can
all
better
work
towards
tomorrow
and
and
this
fall
and
into
our
future.
With
that
said,
talk
about
sure.
Oh
boy,
I
got
a
lot
of
cards
here
to
talk
about
a
feature
of
city
manager
items.
It's
my
sincere
hope.
I've
spoken
often
here
that
into
the
next
Administration.
We
could
learn
to
talk
about
the
city
manager
role
at
public
at
when
she
speaks
on
agenda
items
at
the
beginning
of
each
meeting.
B
That
can
be
a
time
for
public
comment.
I
hope
we
can
learn
how
to
expand
the
public
comment
time,
a
bit
more
and
at
least
have
those
conversations.
Thank
you,
Jill
borders,
hi
I
was
listening
with
great
interest
to
all
the
the
adjustments
that
are
being
suggested
and
possibly
voted
on
and
I
just
thought.
Maybe
we
could
have
some
type
of
a
fund
in
the
future
where,
when
these
adjustments
are
being
made,
we
go
back
and
we
say
hey
what
are
the
things
that
were
brought
up
at
the
at
the
last
budget.
D
You
know
we'll
talk
about
later,
but
it
seems
to
me
that
there's
some
extra
money-
and
that's
certainly
when
a
group
of
people
in
the
public
something's
been
voted
on
in
you
know,
say
two
years
ago
unanimously
to
make
it
happen,
maybe
that
we
could
have
a
fund
where
it
says
it's
like
it
called
an
Integrity
fund
or
accountability
fund,
or
something
like
that
where,
when
we,
when
we
have
pandemics
happen
or
we
have
unforeseen
events
happen,
but
we've
made
a
commitment
to
the
public.
D
Maybe
we
could
draw
upon
those
funds
to
fill
that
Gap
instead
of
putting
it
out
what
appears
to
be
maybe
years
into
the
future,
so
just
a
suggestion,
it
seemed
like
we
had
a
little
extra
money
to
play
with.
Thank
you
back
to
the
council.
D
We
wish
there
was,
but
we
got
a
lot
of
other
needs
and
we're
not
funding
them,
but
we're
we're
doing
a
pretty
good
job,
at
least
really
preparing,
for
what
we
know
is
a
tough,
it's
likely
to
be
a
very
tough
economy
next
year
and
I
really
appreciate
the
work
of
Jim
and
Bonnie
and
the
whole
budget
team
Jennifer
and
her
leadership
over
the
years
being
able
to
get
to
eight
percent
of
operating
Reserve
operating
expenses
now
in
reserve
as
high
as
it's
been
essentially
I've,
been
here.
E
A
couple
decades,
and
we.
D
Did
through
some
tough
times
and
I
appreciate
that
was
hard
to
do
I
think
next
year
and
the
following
year,
the
council
and
the
community
will
be
very
grateful
because
this
is
what's
going
to
help
us
whether
the
tough
times
and
keep
people
employed
and
keep
services
in
place.
So
I
appreciate
everybody
pulling
together
to
make
that
happen.
Councilmember
arenas.
D
Thank
you,
mayor,
I,
I,
agree
with
you,
I
I
think
we
need
to
be
very
conservative
about
what
we
do
with
our
funds
and
I
think
our
Administration
has
been
very
thoughtful.
D
It's
reflected
in
in
this
memo.
One.
B
Really
commend
both
Jim
and
in
our
city
manager,
Jennifer
and
the
folks
in
in
engines
department
is.
There
was
a
concern
earlier
this
year
about
overruns
construction
overruns.
Q
For
our
fire
stations
and
council.
Q
Q
For
to
ask
for
exactly
this
to
to
prepare
for
some
of
the
things
that
we
are,
anticipating
are
going
to
increase,
and
that
is
construction
costs,
and
so
I'm
absolutely
just
grateful
that
we're
doing
this
ahead
of
time
and
and
not
risking
something
to
our
fire
stations
that
are
in
the
pipeline
of
getting
built,
but
we're
anticipating
this.
This
overrun
and
so
I'm
absolutely
just
grateful.
Thank
you
so
much
for
for
finding
this
for
prioritizing
this.
Q
Of
course,
there
was
a
memo
that
we
wrote,
but,
but
you
making
it
possible,
is
just
absolutely.
O
Our
whole
Community,
because
it
it
allows
us
to
manage
other
funds
in
ways
that
can
benefit
everyone
within
the
measure,
T
parameters,
so
so
anyways
I
just
want
to
once
again.
Just
thank
you.
Everything
was
wonderful.
Thank
you,
so
much
for
being
so
considerate
about
our
city
and
and
how
we
are
prioritizing
our
our.
Q
All
right,
thank
you,
councilmember
looking
for
other
colleagues
their
hands
raised,
if
not
I'm,
gonna
jump
in
okay,
oh
I'm,
sorry
I
see
physical
hands,
but
not
first
of.
C
I
just
realized
that
I'm
logged
in
as
you
and
I
didn't
have
a
button
to
raise
my
hands.
I
was
wondering
why
I
couldn't
see
anybody,
I'm,
gonna
log
out
anyway,
I
know,
since
all
the
staff
showed
up
I
need
to
ask
somebody
a
question.
C
Thank
you
so
much
for
that
and
and
the
stewardship
of
the
budget,
and
and
it's
it's
good
to
see
that
things
are
healthier.
It's
such
a
volatile
time.
It's
really
hard
to
really
know,
what's
happening
now,
what's
going
to
happen
next
year,
but
it's
good
to
things
see
that
things
came
out
on
the
plus
side
in
most
cases
this
year
we
don't
know,
what's
going
to
happen
next
year.
My
I
have
one
question
on
one
item:
I
saw
that
the
on
the
clean.
G
Energy
Reserve
fund
is
the
ending
balance.
Now
is
pretty
significant
up
to
170
million.
There
was
a
Target
I.
Just
don't
remember
what
it
was.
There
was
a
target
for
that
number,
at
which
point
we
are
able
to
begin
to
invest
in
things
like
incentives
for
conversion
to
electricity
and
doing
EV
programs.
What
is
that
number
that
we're
aiming
for.
C
C
We
are
planning
to
bring
forward
a
reserve
policy
to
Council
in
December,
and
so
that's
something
that
you
can
consider
formerly
there,
so
that
one
where
it
looks
like
we're
at
170,
according
to
the
estimates,
is
that
right
we
have
to
get
to
the
end
of
the
fiscal
year
at
the
end
of
the
fiscal
year,
we'll
be
at
170
and
then
and
then
hopefully,
if
things
continue
to
do
well
we're
at
that
point
where
we
can
begin
to
start
investing
some
of
those
extra
Revenue
in
some
of
those
programs.
C
All
right,
yeah,
councilmember
Foley.
Thank
you
Jim.
Thank
you
for
the
report
and
the
review
of
the
annual
report
numbers
while
I
realize
this
is
a
snapshot
for
the
end
of
the
fiscal
year,
which
is
a
full
almost
six
months
ago.
I'm
more
concerned
about
looking
forward.
So
I
really
appreciate
the
efforts
in
this.
C
In
your
adjustments
to
put
aside
funds
in
reserves,
you
mentioned
earlier
that
we
we
like
to
have
three
percent
and
that's
of
the
general
fund
I'm,
assuming
not
of
all
of
our
funds
combined
yeah
and
just
to
clarify
it.
So
we
have
two
percentages
that
we
have
to
hit
according
to
council
policy.
So
the
one
that
we
have
to
get
is
a
contingency
reserve.
That
needs
to
be
three
three
percent
of
general
fund
operating
budget
operating
expenditures.
C
F
G
We're
now
at
eight
okay,
so
we're
close,
but
we're
not
quite
there,
but
I
still
feel
good
about
that.
Giving
where
the
concerns
of
where
the
economy
is
heading
and
our
need
to
hire
more
employees
and
compensate
our
employees
appropriately
in
order
to
retain
and
and
and
attract
so
I.
The
the
two
numbers
that
I'm
honing.
L
G
The
future
and
I
realize
this
is
a
look
back
but
I'm
looking
at
Future
and
those
are
the
two
that
are
related
to
real
estate
values
and
real
estate
transactions
and
that's
the
property
taxes
which
we
we
won't
yet
see:
a
reduction
in
property
values
or
property
tax
assessments
until
2324,
because
the
tax
bills
are
already
out
for
this
year
and
it
was
based
on
a
July
first
number.
So,
while
there's
a
projection
of
a
drop
in
real
estate,
values
in
the
residential
Market,
anyway
of
as
much
as
20
percent.
C
That's
going
to
affect
the
transfer
tax
number
and
it
eventually
it
will.
It
will
affect
the
property
tax
number.
So
how
do
we
because
we're
we're
starting
to
rely
on
the
measure
e
transfer
tax
and
had
a
quite
a
good
number
of
a
good
amount
of
income
last
year,
110
million,
but
do
you
have
ideas
on
where
that
number
might
be
in
the
coming
year?
C
I
know
it's
kind
of
hard
to
predict,
but
Market
is
dropping
and
there
are
not
as
many
sales
and
and
what
R
may
not
be
triggered
by
the
measured
e
transfer
tax
yeah
correct.
Yes,
it's
going
to
be
an
interesting
year
for
that.
You
know
we
do
have
very
little
experience
with
this
tax.
It's
really
just
our
second
full
full
year
of
it
I
think
so
you
know
we
had
110
million
in
21
20
22..
We
knew
that
was
not
going
to
last.
That
was
heavily
influenced
by
some
pretty
large
commercial
property
transactions.
F
C
B
Up
with
the
city
council
policy
governing
measure,
each
measure
e
is
a
general
fund,
Revenue
Source.
We
allocate
it
for
homelessness
prevention
and
support
and
affordable
housing.
Our
attempt
is
to
try
to
budget
that
relatively
conservative,
so
we
don't
get
over
extended
and
we
do
have
a
a
good
chunk
of
money
in
reserves
that,
even
though
we
have
plans
for
it
is
necessarily
committed.
So
you
know,
even
if
it
does
fall
short
this
year,
we're
not
in
an
immediate
sort
of
panic
mode,
but
we
will
be
marking
that
very
closely.
B
We
come
out
every
every
couple
of
months
with
a
bi-monthly
financial
report,
we'll
we'll
keep
an
eye
on
that
for
sure
that
goes
to
the
pispizz
committee
and
then
we'll
have
a
better
idea
of
where
that's
going.
When
we
come
to
you
for
the
mid-year
budget.
G
B
This
is
the
time
to
tighten
our
budget
and
to
hunker
down
in
in
our
and
and
depend
on
our
not
depend
on
ours
or
reserves,
but
build
our
reserves
and
have
them
there,
because
we
may
be
in
a
time
where
we're
going
to
depend
on
them.
So
I
really
appreciate
that
we're
at
eight
percent
look
forward
to
get
to
getting
to
10.
Do
you
have
strategies
on
how
we're
going.
M
Council
direction
would
always
be
great
and
go
to
Vegas
and
double
it.
Yeah,
no
I'm,
not
not
a
proponent
of
that
one.
That
sounds
a
little
risky
and
I
know
you
meant
that
in
joke.
Okay,
that's
it
for
me!
Thank
you
very
much
all
right,
I'll
note
that,
since
councilmember
Cohen
is
no
longer
usurping
my
computer,
if
there's.
B
Anyone
else
would
like
to
raise
their
hand.
I
can
see
you,
you
know.
Nope,
okay,
I
just
had
a
couple
questions:
the
going
back
to
fire
stations
first
yeah
great,
to
see
the
the
3.8
million
allocated
for.
M
B
D
B
Know
continuing
to
evaluate
where
the
measure
T
program
is.
We
do
have
direction
to
come
back
to
you
all
in
early
20-23
calendar
year
to
give
some
more
specific
recommendations
about
where
we're
at
and
how
we
can
try
to
close
some
of
the
gaps.
You
know
it's
more
likely
that
Gap
could
grow
rather
than
shrink.
Yeah.
Okay,
you
anticipate.
My
question
sounds
like
we
we're
continuing
to
get
more
recent
data.
B
Okay,
thank
you
for
that
and
then
also
speaking
of
fire
stations,
and
somebody
from
fire
may
want
to
speak
on
this
because
I
don't
expect
you
to
be
an
expert
on
this,
but
or
maybe
maybe
Matt
could
help.
I
know
we're
we're
throwing
in
700
000
to
take
out
the
garage
on
Station
8,
but
I'm
hoping
we'll
begin
construction
well,
not
immediately,
but
I
know
it
will
be
soon
on
Section,
8
or
station
8's
replacement
along
East,
Santa
Clara
Street,
because
my
question
is:
why?
Wouldn't
we.
D
B
The
actual
fire
station
building
it's
a
separate,
separate
building
and
there
are
so
I'll-
have
to
follow
up
to
see
to
get
a
better
answer
to
your
question
about
why
we
can't
wait,
but
I
think
there
are
environmental
reasons
we
need
to
get
rid
of
that
sooner
rather
than
like,
okay,
yeah
I
guess
it's
all
going
in
the
creek
eventually
is
there
is
the
demolition
of
the
station
itself
part
of
measure
T
budget
today,
or
is
that
something
we
need
to
go
find
budget
for
it's
not
currently
budgeted?
B
Oh
so
we'll
have
to
figure
out
figure
that
out
as
we
go
that
may
or
may
not
get
demolished,
I
think
it
will
need
to
eventually
get
demolished,
but
we
still
need
to
figure
out
the
financing,
for
that
I
will
go
back
and
check
on
that
as
well,
though,
and
follow
up
okay.
Q
Just
a
a
note
of
joy.
B
That
measure
e
revenues,
the
affordable
housing
revenues
came
in.
D
What
do
we
need?
Every
dollar.
A
E
Of
our
city
for
supporting
that
measure
and
for
all
those.
E
B
At
home,
Silicon
Valley
at
home
and
their
the
whole
team
that
got
that
over
the
goal
line.
Okay,
any
other
questions
before
we
vote
on
councilman
Aransas
motion
all
right.
Let's
vote
Jimenez.
O
Everybody
we're
going
now
to
item
3.4
annual
Merit
increases
in
additional
executive
leave
for
Council
appointees
now
I'm
supposed
to
read
the
following
out
loud
so,
as
recommended
by
the
rules
and
open
government
committee
on
October
5th
2022
the
recommendations
to
adopt
a
resolution
approving
a
2.5
percent,
Merit
increase
for
the
city
manager,
City
attorney
and
independent
police
auditor,
City,
Clerk
and
City
auditor
effect
of
July
1st
2022
and
2022,
and
granting
an
additional
40
hours
executive
leave
to
each
of
these
Council
appointees
for
the
payroll
calendar
year.
O
2023..
Okay,
let's
go
to
the
public
for
comment.
O
Let's
go
to
the
council:
is
there
a
motion
of
approval?
Second,
okay
motion:
council,
member
spars,
the
second
customer
Cohen,
let's
vote
Jimenez
I
meant
thank
you:
Perales
Cohen,
aye,
crosco,
Davis
Esparza;
yes,
Arenas
bully,
aye,
Mahan,
aye,
Jones,
aye,
Ricardo
aye.
Thank
you
all
right
item
6.1
our
power
procurement
agreements.
We
do
have
a
presentation,
welcome
Lori,.
O
O
O
A
As
background
this
Authority
is
needed
to
meet
our
customers
electric
demand,
and
we
are
recommending
to
approach
that
upper
limit
of
our
energy
risk
management
coverage
ratio.
You
can
think
of
that
as
our
expected
load
or
how
much
energy
our
customers
utilize
and
we're
recommending
this
to
reduce
our
exposure
to
Market
volatility.
A
A
A
We
always
request
a
little
bit
more
than
we
think
we
will
need
and
that's
to
make
sure
that
we
have
authority
to
pay
for
the
energy
info
invoices
to
make
sure
we
can
pay
for
the
energy
that
our
customers
utilize
in
both
2022
and
the
subsequent
years,
and
then
you
can
see
in
these
later
years
intentionally
the
portfolio
is
more
open
and
we
are
bringing
additional
long-term
contracts
for
council's
considerations.
R
That
all
said
for
this
item
yeah
to
include
all
those
Concepts
into
our
Renewable
Energy
Future,
how
we
build
the
future
of
our
community,
how
it
can
be
a
community
effort
to
consider
those
Concepts
like
with
your
new
municipality
municipality
ideas
in
development.
You
actually
were
considering
the
public
and
Municipal
ideas,
I
I,
can't
thank
you
enough
for
that.
I
I,
think
just
to
be
thinking
of
the
public
and
the
Public's
input
to
the
process
is
so
vital
for
the
future
of
this
work.
R
It
has
to
always
be
remembered.
Thank
you
for
that.
Good
luck.
How
how
to
if,
as
a
person
of
the
community
I
hope
you
can
really
want
to
address
the
future
of
nuclear
and
I
I,
think
I
hope
we
can
learn
to
resolve
issues
with
that.
R
I
mean
I'm
learning
that
we
may
have
to
rely
on
a
bit
of
fossil
fuel
use
for
the
future
of
a
real
good,
renewable
ideas
at
this
time,
but
I'm
you
know
in
the
northern
California
really
prepared
how
to
hold
fossil
fuel
companies
accountable
in
this
process,
which
was
just
awesome
of
Northern
California
in
the
Bay
Area
and
all
of
yourselves
that
I
know
you
worked
so
hard
to
accomplish
that.
So
thank
you
for
that
and
in
the
next
few
years
that
hopefully
can
set
a
trend.
R
I
guess
the
idea
is
how
to
move
away
from
fossil
fuels
altogether
in
the
renewable
energy
process.
How
that
how
we
can
do
that
and
I
just
hope.
You
can
talk
openly
about
those
Concepts
and
make
it
clear
and
really
learn
to
make
it
a
full
community
effort
and
not
just
a
new
bureaucracy
created.
Thank
you.
E
A
60
percent
this
year,
if
you
add
what
happened.
B
In
March
over
what
we
started
the
year
at
that's
a
lot
of
money,
720
billion.
You
know
that
many
of
the
circumstances
justified
in
the
memo
are
really
sort
of
transitory
droughts
come
and
go.
We
were
unlucky,
we
can
be
unlucky
a
long
time.
I
agree.
Gas
prices
and
the
Futures
curve
are
way
down,
starting
in
April
this
year.
So
you
know
I,
don't
want
sort
of
short-term
things
to
just
sort
of
spook
us
into
such
a
large
increase
unless
it's
really
needed.
B
O
B
O
I
really
sort
of
get
nervous
about
locking
in
things
you
lock
in
you
get
price
certainty.
That's
a
hedge,
that's
managing
risk,
but
you're
getting
in
return
a
quantity
uncertainty,
a
commodity
risk
is
what
we
call
it
and
it's
particularly
awkward
for
something
like
San
Jose,
where
our
customers
can
opt
out
they're,
not
going
to
opt
out
right
away.
But
you
know
you
can
be
surprised.
You
know
social
media
campaign
sparked
by
some.
You
know
raid
outrage
if
we
have
a
full
60
percent
recovery
is
implied
by
these
numbers
over
the
next
three
years.
O
That's
substantial
increase
in
our
current
rates,
so
I
would
go
slow
as
much
as
I
could
I
would
suggest
to
the
commission
or
not
the
commission,
the
the
clean
energy
to
go
as
slow
as
possible.
You
know
you
hate
to
lock
in
at
the.
B
B
O
Risk,
certainly,
we
all
appreciate
that
the
risk
of
locking
at
the
top
I
I
saw
some
pretty
ominous
charts
in
the
Wall
Street
Journal
three
days
ago.
Looking
at
all
utility
costs,
gas
electric,
none
of
it
looked
terribly
good,
I'm
guessing
regardless
of
whatever
wonderful
things
may
happen
in
the
world
of
Renewables
and
subsidies
from
the
federal
government.
It's
the
transmission
that
gets
really
really
more
and
more
expensive
over
time,
particularly
here
in
our
area.
Around
PG
E's.
Is
that
fair
to
say,
Lori,
both
transmission
and
distribution?
O
O
At
the
same
time,
you
know
it's
important
in
the
very
very
short
term,
for
2023
and
even
into
2024
that
we've,
you
know
fixed
our
costs
so
that
we
have
rate
certainty
and
we're
not
exposed
to
additional
high
prices.
It
is
somewhat
unknown.
I
I
absolutely
agree
we're
at
a
very
high
point
in
the
market
and
you
know,
hopefully,
things
will
settle
out,
but
unfortunately
it's
impossible
to
exactly
predict
the
future.
So
it's
really
important
for
us
in
the
short
term,
to
have
cost
certainty.
O
I
absolutely
agree
over
the
long
term.
We
want
to
be
very,
very
careful
and
monitor
the
market
and.
E
D
We're
at
the
very
high
range
of
our
coverage
limits,
and
so
that
has
served
us
very
well
in
2022.
As
we
all
know,
over
Labor
Day
weekend
we
had
a
very
large
Heat
Wave
and
market
prices
were
very
high.
Fortunately,
the
portfolio
was.
A
B
Ahead
and
so
that's
what
we
intend
to
do
for
2023
as
well
as
2024,
while
over
that
medium
and
that
long-term
leaving
things
open
to
take
advantage
of
the
market
settling
in
the
future.
So
what
we're
recommending
today
is
a
combination
of
adding
additional
authorities
so
that
we
can
purchase
further
short
term
in
the
next
one
to
three
years
to.
L
Make
sure
we
have
cost
certainty
and
then
a
little
bit
more
Authority
in
years,
four
and
five,
so
that
we
can
also
lock
in
some
medium
term.
But
again
we
want
to
be
very
cautious
about
that.
That
being
said,
this
is
for
all
products,
Not,
Just
Energy.
This
is
also
resource
adequacy,
renewable
Supply
and
carbon
free
Supply.
Those
products
are
not.
You
know,
seeing
the
same,
especially
the
renewable
and
the
carbon
free
are
not
seeing
the
same
price
increases.
L
Resource
adequacy
is
very
high,
but
the
main
way
we
found
to
moderate
that
cost
is
to
lock
in
you
know,
several
years
in
advance,
so
you
know
four
and
five
year
contracts,
and
so
this
Authority
allows
us
to
do
that.
Thank
you
any
other
questions
or
comments.
Okay,
they're
at
motion.
J
J
Good
afternoon
my
name
is
Julie
benavente
I'm,
the
deputy
director
for
climate,
smart
program
in
environmental
services,
department
and
I'm
joined
by
Kate
ziemba
from
the
community
energy
Department,
as
well
as
Ramses
madal
from
the
Department
of
Transportation,
so
we'll
be
providing
a
sama
annual
update
on
the
climate.
Smart
San
Jose
activities
since
our
last
for
our
last
reporting
period,
which
was
March
through
August
foreign.
J
So,
as
part
of
our
core
climate,
smart
activities
staff
continues
to
seek
and
acquire
external
resources
to
support
climate
smart
initiatives,
as
you
can
see
in
this
table
in
fiscal
year,
2122
the
city
acquired
over
8
million
dollars
in
federal
state
and
non-profit
resources.
During
the
current
reporting
period,
the
city
received
over
1.8
million
in
external
resources
and
applied
for
an
additional
six
hundred
thousand
dollars.
J
Good
afternoon
ktmba
Community
energy
Department,
some
of
the
highlights
were
that
two
of
our
renewable
energy
projects
came
online
and
provide
and
now
provide
enough
renewable
energy
to
power
more
than
250
000
homes
each
year,
and
we
have
more
solar,
geothermal
and
short
and
long
duration,
storage
projects
being
built
over
the
next
few
years.
Geothermal
and
long
duration
storage
are
key
Technologies
as
we
transition
to
100
carbon
neutral
energy,
as
they
help
us
meet
demand
peaks
with
renewable
energy.
J
We
also
launched
two
Energy
Efficiency
programs
in
September
that
will
run
through
the
end
of
2024..
The
cpuc
allocated
public-purpose
program
charges
to
San
Jose,
clean
energy
to
fully
fund.
These
programs
and
the
city
council
also
allocated
Federal
relief
funds
to
expand
access
to
the
residential
program
through
the
residential
program.
J
L
Direct
current
fast
Chargers
in
workplaces,
public
places
and
apartments
in
San
Jose
installations
will
continue
through
2024,
but
as
of
March
52
level,
2
and
11
direct
current
fast
Chargers
are
operational
and
nearly
40
percent
of
the
Chargers
are
being
installed
in
low-income
and
disadvantaged
communities
and
then
in
November.
We
will
bring
a
feasibility
analysis
for
the
direct
current
fast
charging
hubs,
pilot
project
for
your
consideration
and
now
I'll
turn
it
over
to
Ramses
afternoon
mayor
and
Council
Ramses
madhu
Department
of
Transportation.
L
As
you
know,
we
were
able
to
bring
some
pretty
significant
policy
and
planning
efforts
to
you.
Over
the
last
reporting
period,
we
were
directed
by
Council
to
bring
forward
a
parking
and
transportation
demand
management,
ordinance,
update,
which
we're
working
hard
to
finalize
right
now
and
get
to
before
the
end
of
the
year
that
will
remove
all
parking
emblems
throughout
the
city
and
increase
or
amend
our
transportation
demand
management
requirements
for
new
development.
L
D
D
Since
the
memo
was,
posted
staff
has
received
updated
information
in
terms
of
the
number
of
installs
of
the
fuel
cells
that
would
fall
under
this
ber
exemption.
Those
are
at
least
60.
D
Of
capacity
in
San
Jose,
this
also
equates
to
approximately
two
percent
of
city-wide
emissions
based
on
our
last
inventory,
and
that
is
also
approximately
the
same
as
the
amount
of
our
city
operations
emissions
in
terms
of
percentage
for
our
inventory.
C
J
D
D
S
This
issue
is
really
important
to
me,
because
I
really
really
want
us
to
meet
our
20
30
goals,
so
I'm
going
to
show
you
a
visual,
our
a
backup.
We
know
we
don't
like
diesel
right,
but
as
it
stands,
if
a
company
uses,
if
a
building
uses
diesel
backup
generators
for
the
days
that
the
power
is
out,
then
this
is
how
much
this
is,
how
much
greenhouse
gas
emissions
they
produce.

Hi
I'm
Linda,
Hutchins,
Knowles,
San,
Jose
resident
co-founder
of
mothers
out
front
Silicon
Valley
I
also
want
to
thank
staff
and
Council
for
your
leadership
on
climate.
You've
done
some
tremendous
work
in
the
past
six
years
that
we've
been
advocating,
and
this
feels
like
one
of
the
decision
points.
R
R
I
want
to
point
out
that
the
exemption
is
not
needed,
there's
a
hardship
exemption
that
was
really
wisely
written.
In
fact,
it's
almost
the
same
language
as
the
Der
exemption.
If
you
look
at
it
mentions
public
health
and
safety,
you
could
actually
direct
the
staff
to
end
the
Der
exemption.
Whenever
you
want,
you
have
that
power,
you
did
immediately
when
it
was
proposed.

Hello,
my
name
is
dashal
weeds,
I'm,
the
conservation
organizer
for
the
Sierra
Club
Lumber
pieta
chapter
and
I'm
a
district
one
resident
we're
in
strong
support
of
San
Jose's
efforts
to
achieve
carbon
neutrality
by
2030..
The
city
has
made
strong
commitments
to
decarbonize
buildings
and
transition
away
from
existing
fossil
gas
pipeline
infrastructure.
D
I
agree
with
all
of
Linda's
comments.
Please
sunset
this
der
exemption
and
if
you
do
worst
case
scenario,
these
fossil
fuel
companies
still
have
the
opportunity
to
apply
for
a
hardship
exemption
from
the
city,
but
at
least
this
way
it
puts
the
burden
of
proof
on
the
gas
applicant
and
allows
City
staff
to
block
unnecessary
gas
power
plants
that
contradict
our
climate.
Smart
goals.
Please
give
our
city
the
power
to
say
no
to
new
fossil
fuel
pipelines
and
gas
power
plants.
Thank
you.

Hi,
my
name
is
Nila
bakala
and
I
am
a
District
3,
San
Jose
resident
a
high
school
student
and
a
member
of
Silicon
Valley
youth
climate
action.
I
am
here
today
to
urge
the
city
to
finally
eliminate
the
Der
exemption.
Clause
San
Jose
took
a
huge
step
forward
for
the
future
of
our
city
and
our
planet
by
Banning
gas
infrastructure
in
new
buildings,
but
an
unfair
carve
out
for
distributed
energy
resources
tarnishes
that
accomplishment,
because
every
single
der
unit
results
in
greenhouse
gas
emissions
equivalent
to
several
hundred
gas
powered
buildings.
D
These
units
also
have
to
report
to
the
EPA
for
the
Hazardous
carcinogens.
They
produce
der
companies
should
not
be
making
money
off
of
emitting
the
very
greenhouse
gases
that
are
endangering
our
future.
That's
the
reason
our
city
passed
this
groundbreaking
legislation
in
the
first
place
and
special
interests
shouldn't
play
by
different
rules.
D
We
need
our
city
to
stand
strong
for
a
gas-free
future
for
the
health
of
our
planet
and
the
health
of
our
lungs
sunsetting.
The
Der
exemption
Clause
will
show
our
City's
commitment
to
the
future
of
young
people
like
me,
rather
than
to
a
special
interest
Corporation
trying
to
make
a
profit
off
of
a
warming
planet.
Please
make
the
right
choice.
Thank
you.
D
N
Firstly,
they
say
that
the
original
ban
will
harm
their
business.
A
separate
exemption
in
the
original
ban
allows
companies
to
install
gas
in
new
buildings
if
they
can
prove
they
cannot
do
otherwise.
Due
to
financial
constraint
and
Bloom
is
free
to
apply
and
prove
its
case
next,
they
argue
that
the
electricity
grid
will
be
vulnerable
without
gas
power.
Renewable
energy
is
already
supplying
reliable,
backup
power
to
many
institutions.
In
fact,
natural
gas
is
more
vulnerable
than
electricity,
after
earthquakes
and
other
natural
disasters
and
Bloom's
fuel
cells
require
flowing
natural
gas
if
necessary.
N
Even
diesel
backup
generators
have
lower
emissions
due
to
only
running
when
there
is
a
power
outage.
Finally,
Bloom
states
that
in
the
future,
it
will
use
its
natural
gas
infrastructure
to
transition
to
Green
hydrogen
fuel.
However,
numerous
Studies
have
proven
that
natural
gas
pipelines
are
unable
to
transport
hydrogen
fuel
without
leaking
it
out.
If
they
do
suddenly
discover
a
way
to
transition
to
hydrogen,
Bloom
Energy
can
do
so
entirely
unaffected
by
the
natural
gas
ban.
This
exemption
simply
allows
for
special
interest
Corporation
to
get
out
of
its
legal
and
Community
obligations.
N
N
Hi,
this
is
Wayan
Chung.
The
Dr
exemption
allows
egregious
amounts.
A
The
emissions
from
using
sjce
at
CE,
with
the
ceaseless
backup
power,
the
large
the
longer
the
exemption,
is
in
place,
the
more
likely
these
emissions
will
multiply.
A
Fortunately,
they
are
more
affordable
and
Sustainable
Solutions
for
businesses
needing
under
interrupted
power,
including
solar
with
battery
storage,
so
I'm
setting
the
Dr
exemption
will
not
harm
the
small
businesses
of
San
Jose
fuel
cells
are
extremely
expensive
and
used
on
Enterprise
scale
by
companies
that
should
have
to
follow
the
same
rules
as
the
rest
of
us.
The
fact
that
the
exemption
is
vaguely
worded
as
der
means
that
it
is
a
CO2
wolf
in
fuel
cell
clothing,
allowing
other
even
more
climate
destabilizing
energy
sources
powered
by
fossil
gas.
A
We
are
concerned
that
Google
could
apply
to
use
gas
powered
fuel
cells
or
other
gas
powered
fuel
energy
systems
at
at
its
very
large
new
downtown
campus,
which
would
lock
in
enormous
amounts
of
methane
gas
for
years.
A
My
worry
is
that
other
large
corporations
will
follow.
Google's
example.
My
worry
is
that
other
cities
across
Silicon
Valley,
the
bay
area
in
the
nation,
will
follow
the
city
of
San
Jose's
example
and
replicate
this
misguided
exemption
and
we
will
blow
past
any
possibility
of
carbon
neutrality
by
2030..
Our
very
water
is
drying
up
from
this
terrible
drought.
A
A
All
right,
we
have
Beekman
here
thanks
a
lot
for
this
item.
I
guess.
D
You
know
just
the
first
good
luck,
how
we
can
really
be.
O
Open
to
the
creative
ideas
of
solar
and
really
consider.
D
How
to
harness
the
energy
from
space
itself
and
to
have
those
open,
creative
conversations.
Give
me
a
lot
of
help
for
ourselves.
I
think
with
that
all
said,
to
approach
this
item
a
little
bit
differently,
I
to
again
offer
I
feel
that
we
really
have
to
have
important
conversations
about
a
climate,
smart
future
that
and
really
includes
the
concepts
of
worker
rights
issues,
and
we
for
all
the
climate
work.
We
do.
D
We
have
to
consider
you
know
equity
and
worker
rights,
to
say
people
in
in
the
many
countries
that
will
be
mining,
the
rare
earth,
minerals
and
it's
with
those
sort
of
good
efforts
at
good
jobs
and
good
human
rights
practices
that
I
think
we
can
Stave
off.
You
know
what
maybe
a
future
of
skirmishes
and
War
in
different
parts
of
the
world.
That
is
very
possible.
That's
going
to
take
place
if,
if
we
don't
work
on
good
human
rights
and
worker
rights
issues
with
the
rare
mineral
ideas
needs,
I
guess.
P
D
Know
down
in
downtown
the
big
belly
I
mean
that
has
I
think
seismic
reading
equipment.
You
know
to
get
ready
for
the
upcoming
Bart
so
to
make
open
public
policy
practices
with
the
climate.
D
Smart
technology
can
be
a
great
beginning
example
of
how
to
make
the
whole
process
for
a
community
more
easy
and
accessible
and
understandable
and
the
community
can
ask
questions,
and
that
can
be
a
good
way
to
introduce
the
community
how
to
ask
questions
about
their
climate,
smart
technology,
data
collection,
so,
overall,
good
luck
on
how
we
talk
about
these
issues.
Thank
you.
D
Hi,
thank
you
good
afternoon.
Mary
licardo
and
council
members,
I'm
Olivia
Walker
with
nrdc
the
natural
resources,
defense
Council
I'm
here.
First.
Thank
you
for
your
continued
efforts
to
achieve
the
goals
set
forth
in
the
climate.
Smart
San
Jose
plan
and
second,
like
the
speakers
before
me,
I'm
here,
to
urge
you
to
Sunset
the
natural
gas
infrastructure,
prohibition,
ordinances,
exemption
for
gas
powered,
distributed
energy
resources
or
ddrs
in.
D
Nrdc
staff,
including
myself,
had
the
immense
pleasure
of
working
directly
with
the
city
both
on
the
2019
reach
code
and
the
2020
gas
Gaston
prohibition
ordinance
and
today,
two
years
later,
the
case
for
the
gas
prohibition
ordinance
is
just
as
strong,
if
not
stronger,
but
the
Der
exemption
allows
for
gas
powered
fuel
cells
that
continue
local
demand
for
new
natural
gas
infrastructure,
which
is
directly
antithetical
to
the
spirit
of
the
original
ordinance.
This
corporate
backed
loophole
allows
for
the
unfettered
use
of
fuel
cells
powered
by
natural
gas.
D
What's
more,
as
others
have
mentioned,
it's
redundant
with
a
hardship
exemption
which
it's
itself
would
ensure
that
truly
needed.
Dr
installations
would
be
permitted
if
well,
Justified.
I
personally
believe
this
exemption
to
be
profit,
driven
and
counterproductive
to
climate,
smart,
San,
Jose's
goals,
but
at
the
very
best
it's
simply
unnecessary.
D
P
The
distributed
energy
resource
exemption
is
written,
so
vaguely
that
it
allows
energy
systems
that
are
even
more
climate
destabilizing
than
fuel
cells
are,
while
the
intention
behind
the
exemption
was
specifically
to
allow
for
fuel
cells,
the
language
of
distributed
energy
resources
has
opened
the
door
to
other
types
of
gas
powered
der.
As
an
example,
Microsoft
recently
requested
and
received
permission
under
the
exemption
to
use
renewable,
renewable
natural
gas
to
power,
its
emergency
backup
generators
and
given
the
Der
exemption,
the
staff
had
no
choice
but
to
approve
this
project.
P
Even
though
rates
of
methane
leakage
from
gas
pipelines
are
very
high
and
are
a
key
driver
of
climate
change.
Fortunately,
Microsoft
only
plans
to
use
this
for
their
backup
power.
However,
if
the
exemption
is
left
in
place,
we
risk
even
larger
facilities,
opting
to
use
climate
destabilizing
methane
gas
for
their
continuous
base
load
power.
D
There
is
no
limit
to
the
number
of
exemptions
that
could
be
granted
which
could
go
far
beyond
what
the
council
intended.
One
of
the
proved
this
exemption.
Please
consider
this
and
please
consider
removing
the
exemption
as
soon
as
possible.
Thank
you
for
your
supportive
climate,
stabilization
efforts
and
for
hearing
my
comments
today.
D
Hi,
my
name
is
Jenny
green
and
I'm,
a
resident
of
San
Jose
and
a
member
of
mothers
out
front
and,
as
some
of
the
other
speakers
have
mentioned,
the
city's
ban
on
gas
in
new
buildings
has
an
exemption
for
gas
power
for
distributed
energy
resources,
including
gas
powered
fuel
cells.
I
want
to
join
the
other
speakers
and
asking
you
to
please
Sunset
the
exemption
as
soon
as
possible,
and
one
thing
I
think
that
none
of
the
other
commenters
have
mentioned
yet.
D
Is
that
due
to
technological
advances
in
the
two
years
since
the
exemption
was
originally
granted,
there
are
now
many
examples
of
mission
critical
facilities
using
renewable
energy,
such
as
solar
power
with
battery
backup
for
all
their
backup
power
needs.
I.
Think
mothers
out
front
sent
all
the
council
members
a
letter
that
includes
links
to
several
examples.
So
I
won't
go
into
too
much
detail,
but
I'll
just
mention
a
couple.
The
San,
Benito
Health
foundation
and
Hollister
now
has
the
ability
to
rely
entirely
on
solar.
L
Energy
and
battery
backup
for
at
least
a
week
and
also
the
Redwood
Coast
Airport,
is
now
running
off
a
microgrid
that
includes
solar
photovoltaic
array
and
a
battery
energy
storage
system.
So
those
are
just
two
examples
of
large
Mission
critical
facilities
that
are
using
state-of-the-art,
solar
and
battery
backup.
So
this
is
no
longer
an
emerging
technology.
It
has
arrived
and
gas
powered
fuel
cells
are
not
necessary
for
companies
to
to
use
as
backup
power.
So
I
hope
that
you'll
Sunset
the
exemption.
S
Q
The
board
of
directors
for
the
Silicon
Valley
youth
climate
action
organization,
I'm,
requesting
that
you
Sunset
the
Der
exemption
of
the
natural
gas
ban,
all
of
the
already
installed
fuel
cells
that
we
have
in
the
city
is
accounting
for
two
to
three
percent
of
our
City's
emissions.
And,
if
that's
not
alarming
enough,
then
the
fact
that
natural
gas
which
the
fuel
cells
are
running
24
7
on
is
highly
inefficient.
It
leaks
methane
throughout
the
entire
distribution
process
that
should
cause
you
to
worry
a
bit.
Q
Q
L
Hello
there,
my
name
is
Crystal
Hernandez
I'm,
with
octera's
ASAP
program
and
I,
fully
support
electrification
and
reach
codes
that
are
being
implemented
and
for
us
to
reach
further.
If
we
can
I
believe
your
council
is
doing
a
great
job
in
providing
this
presentation
for
us
today
and
I
hope
that
we
can
do
a
better
job
moving
forward
five
seconds.
All
the
speakers
before
me
and
I
support
what
they've
said.
Thank
you
back
to.
L
Q
Cohen
yeah,
thank
you
and
thank
you
for
the.
Q
Really
proud
of
the
work
that
San
Jose
is
doing
to
get
us
to
climate,
to
our
climate
goals
for
2030
and
also
on
all
the
transportation
work.
We're
doing
that
are
part
of
that.
Getting
people
into
bikes
out
of
cars
and
all
of
that,
all
the
things
that
are
coming.
L
Are
we're
pushing
pretty
hard
and
I
know
it's
a
lot
of
Staff
work
too
to
get
us
to
make
sure
we
prioritize
the
things
with
the
biggest
impact
to
get
us
to
our
goals.
I
just
want
to
ask
a
few
questions.
Obviously,
we've
heard
a
lot
of
comments
about
fuel
cells,
so
I'm
going
to
just
ask
some
questions
on
the
topic.
The
slide
in
your
presentation,
I,
don't
know
if
you
can
go
back
to
it,
but
the
slide
that
talked
about
the
number
of
of
installations.
L
Since
2021
said
there
haven't
been
any
under
this
exemption,
but
then
said:
there's
new
information,
or
did
it
say
that
there's
there
were
about
20,
there
were
20
that
happened
and
they
all
occurred
prior
to
the
they
were
all
approved
prior
to
the
exemption.
Is
that
right,
yeah?
Sorry
just
to
clarify
so
that's
correct.
Q
L
Q
Available
data
that
we
had
access
to
and
we
understand
that-
there's
at
least
more
like
60
installations,
representing
50
megawatts
of
capacity,
so
the
20
was
an
old
number.
Now
you
know
and
all
60
were
those
are
prior
to
the
exempt
to
the
natural
gas
can
and
the
exemption.
That's
correct,
and
you
said
that
they
were
there
were.
None
have
been
approved
through
the
exemption
when
you
say
proof
of
exemption.
Q
Q
It
does
require
that
we
approve,
if
it
meets
the
you
know,
what's
laid
out
in
the
ordinance
in
terms
of
definitions,
but
we
have
put
in
place
an
exemption
process
requiring
that
people
who
want
to
get
the
exemption
fill
out
a
form
that
we've
added
some
additional
data
points
in
there,
so
that
we
can
make
sure
to
track
very
closely,
because
we
knew
that
we
were
coming
back
to
council
before
the
end
of
next
calendar
year
to
be
able
to
report
back.
L
Both
the
Environmental
Services
Department,
as
well
as
planning
building
code
enforcement,
have
a
look
at
you
know
what
was
coming
through.
So
we
do
have
a
process
in
place,
but
you
know
we
wouldn't
be
able
to
deny
I
guess
an
exemption
if.
Q
You
know
if
it
meets
the
criteria
and
there
haven't
been
any
applications
filed
in
the
last
year
in
San
Jose.
There
have
not
been
any
applications
for
fuel
cells
under
the
Der
exemption.
There
was
a
suspension
by
a
previous
speaker.
There
was
there
is
at
least
one
exemption
that
was
under
for
the
Der,
but
it
was
for
the
biogas
backup
generation
for
the
Microsoft
right,
okay,
yeah
I
mean
that's
and
I
mean
there's,
there's
other
things
that
you
know
we
didn't.
Q
Obviously
I
wasn't
on
Council
the
time
I
can't
say
how
necessarily
you
know,
I,
don't
know
necessarily
how
I
would
have
come
down
on
this
exemption
at
the
time,
because
I
wasn't
here
to
to
go
to
hear
all
of
the
input
you
know.
One
of
our
issues
was
that
the
reason
this
happened
is
that
you
know
there
were.
There
were
at
least
one
company
who
said
well.
This
is
happening
and
we're
feel
blindsided
by
it.
Q
We
didn't
have
a
process,
so
certainly
we
need
a
process
going
forward
to
make
sure
that
at
least
whatever
we
do
to
change.
It
is
going.
Q
M
Penn
Avenue,
by
which
somebody
could
install
one
of
these
fuel
cell
ders,
but
it
seems
less
likely
because
we
would
be
able
to
say
to
them.
There
are
alternatives
that
you
could
use
to
this
system
that
we
would
then
approve
and
that
we
would
let
you
use
that
you
could
use
that
there's
no,
it's
hard
to
come
up
with
a
hardship
that
says
this
is
the
only
technology
available
to
you.
Is
that
correct?
M
It
is
I,
think
it's
a
little
bit
broadly
laid
out,
but
I
mean
it
would
be
depend
on
what
came
forward
exactly
in
the
you
know,
yeah
I
mean
I
mean
maybe
there's
a
way.
Somebody
could
come
up
with
an
explanation
as.
Q
That
diesel
backup
is
just
as
good
for
them
as
any
other
solution.
They
don't
need
it.
So
it's
pretty
hard
for
me
to
come
up
with
a
scenario
by
which
one
would
get
the
hardship
exemption
specifically
for
this
kind
of
Technology
anyway,
I'll
just
leave
it
at
that
I
think
we
need.
We
need
I'm
glad
to
hear
that
we're
bringing
back
a
discussion
in
2023
to
have
this
to
and
I
think
part
of
that
discussion
is
not
just
a
report
but
a
recommendation
right
of
what
we
want
to
do.
Q
Q
Well
we'd
like
to
follow
Council
Direction
and
the
rationale
for
the
timing.
Q
M
Council
Direction
give
Harkness
Deputy
city
manager,
okay,
I
mean
so
the
only
and
I
guess
what
you're
saying
is
you
probably
need
a
motion
for
direction
to
change
if
it's
sooner
than
the
that.
Q
C
Would
do
prior
to
that
okay,
so
I
would
like
to
suggest
that
we
have
that
conversation
sooner
next
year
and
not
necessarily
you
know,
I
mean.
Obviously
this
depends
on
on
what
we
think
staff
time
is
one
of
the
you
know
how
we
think
this
will
affect
staff's
overall
balance
of
the
important
work,
that's
being
done
to
reach
these
goals.
C
Overall,
we
do
need
to
have
that
Outreach
process
with
those
who
are
affected,
but
given
that
we've
had
no
applications
in
a
year
and
a
half
I
think
it's
somewhat
safe
to
say
that
the
building
industry
isn't
necessarily,
you
know,
going
to
be
hamstrung
by
a
shortening
of
this
time
period.
Well,
there
are
some
businesses
who
might
be
in
theory
affected
by
it.
C
So
what
I
mean?
What
is
your
first
feeling
about
staff
time
as
far
as
being
able
to
bring
a
report
on
this
back
sooner
than
end
of
2023.?
Well
with
something
like
that?
Typically
generally,
this
would
be
brought
forward
at
rules
committee
or
or
another
process,
because
this,
this
item
is
just
an
update.
C
So
we
have
not
had
a
chance
to
do
what
we
would
normally
do,
which
is
a
an
evaluation
of
whether
we
can
do
that
within
the
existing
capacity
or
whether
that
would
knock
other
priorities
around
so
I'd
be
getting
ahead
of
myself
to
suggest
what
the
implications
would
be
on
changing
the
timing
without
having
had
a
chance
to
to
work
that,
through
with
staff,
but
would
it
be
happy
to
come
back
with
this
future
Council
Direction
and
do
that
analysis?
Okay,
makes
sense
rules
committee
with
early.
T
C
O
Out
the
next
step
after
that
point,
thank
you
second
motion
from
councilman
Cohen,
second
from
customer
Mayhem,
council
member
Foley
great,
thank
you
for
the
presentation
and
I'm
particularly
proud
of
the
efforts
on
our
transportation
model
to
reduce
greenhouse
gases,
both
move,
San,
Jose
parking
amendments
and
the
transit
first
policies
are
really
important,
because
transportation
is
one
of
the
biggest
contributors
to
greenhouse
gases.
As
We
Know
I'm
I'm
glad
to
see
that
we're
looking
at
Freight
Transportation
as
a
key
area
to
reduce
Transportation
emissions
as
well.
C
Unfortunately,
we've
kind
of
forgotten
the
transportation
or
that
that
Freight
is
a
big
deal
and
that
is
contributing.
But
the
studies
that
we're
seeing
in
the
analysis.
O
We
know
that
that
is
contributing
tremendously
to
our
greenhouse
gases,
so
I
have
a
couple
of
questions
and
I
I
do
appreciate
the
update
and
I
also
appreciate
the
conversations
around
the
fuel
cells
and
the
exemptions
and
look
forward
to
that.
Coming
back
to
us,
but
in
the
memorandum
I
saw
that
there's
about
2
000
is
I
guess
this
is
one
of
you
will
answer
this
question.
I'm
sure
2
000
customers
enrolled
in
the
total
green
product
but
I
didn't
see
anything
for
green
value.
O
C
M
M
Thank
you,
council,
member
Lori,
Mitchell,
director
of
community
energy,
so
green
value
is
our
lowest
cost
program.
So
it's
priced
the
same
as
PG
e
we've
had
some
movement
into
that,
but
fairly
low.
It's
about
three
percent
of
our
customer
base.
I,
don't
recall
the
total
number
of
customers,
but
we
can
get
to
that
information,
and
we
do
think
it's
been
a
successful
program,
though
in
retaining
customers
and
just
making
sure
that
our
customers
know
that
they
have
choices.
You
know
both
the
green
source,
which
is
priced
at
a
premium,
but.
N
M
Percent,
renewable
and
green
value,
which
is
more
cost
competitive.
Okay,
thank
you
would
have
benefited
us
to
try
and
get
more
customers
in
the
Green
Valley
to
stay
within
Green
Valley,
a
Valley
Green
value,
so
we
always
offer
that
to
our
customers
and
when
they
call
in-
and
you
know
whether
they're
asking
to
opt
out
or
just
wanting
to
understand
what
their
customer
choices
are,
we
always
make
sure
that
they
understand
that
product
and
and
that
that's
available
to
them.
M
But
I
also
want
to
note
that
we
will
bring
forward
a
council
recommendations
on
both
green
source
and
green
value
and
rate
change
adjustments
and
we
hope
to
have
a
green
Source,
also
less
expensive
than
PG
e
next
year
in
2023.
So
that
will
come
to
council
for
consideration
in
December.
Wonderful,
thank
you.
M
C
Both
the
inflation
reduction
Act
and
the
infrastructure
investment
jobs
act
as
well
as
the
state
funding
that's
been
made
available.
There
really
is
an
unprecedented
amount
to
your
point
of
funding
available
for
both
clean
energy
and
resilient
infrastructure,
so
working
with
Zane
Barnes
and
the
intergovernmental
relations
team,
as
well
as
other
folks
across
departments.
We
are
mounting
an
aggressive
campaign
to
try
to
get
as
much
of
that
money
as
possible.
A
lot
of
it
is
allocated
in
processes
which
require
us
to
compete
and
emphasize.
L
Collaboration
Equity
goals
in
that
competition,
so
we
estimate
that
over
the
next
three
to
five
years
there
is
at
least
a
billion
dollars
or
more
that's
on
the
table
that
we
would
be
competitive
for
if
we
can
put
the
applications
in
and
pull
them
down,
so
putting
together
strong
teams
being
getting
that
aggressive
aggressively
in
front
of
those
opportunities
and
then
being
good
partners
and
focusing
on
some
of
the
equity
issues
will
require
a
sustained
level
of
effort
over
the
next
several
years.
M
Going
to
need
to
pull
more
resources
into
that
to
be
competitive.
The
good
news
is
any
resources
that
get
pulled
into
that
should
pay
for
themselves
10
times
over
or
more.
Some
of
those
notices
are
coming
out
now
and
we're
actively
working
with
the
Departments
and
across
departmental
effort
to
not
only
make
them
aware
but
to
try
and
prioritize
and
support
them
where
we
can
to
move
forward
on
going
after
those
funds.
C
The
opportunities
are
there
and-
and
we
can
jump
on
them-
yes-
and
the
opportunity
is
already
coming
so
we're
we're
trying
to
jump
on
them
as
they
come
and
with
the
help
of
our
folks
in
the
legislative
Community
also
get
the
opportunity
to
influence
some
of
the
rules
that
are
being
made
around
them,
so
they
don't
cut
us
out
of
the
competent
competitive
process.
Wonderful,
thank
you
very
much
and,
and
the
last
question
is
that
we're
doing
a
lot
of
things
to
reduce
emissions.
M
Of
the
changes
we're
making
it
both
in
the
city
and
then
recommendations
around
electrification
and
that
sort
of
thing
are
we
doing.
Is
there
any
how
close?
Well
we're?
Not?
We
haven't
reached
our
goal
yet,
but
are
we
making
progress
to
reach
our
goal?
M
Our
team
does
inventories
both
community-wide
and
Municipal
operations
inventories
on
alternating
years,
so
this
year
is
a
municipal
inventory,
but
we're
actually
probably
going
to
be
doing
them
pretty
close
together
and
compete
and
completing
those.
So
we'll
have
another
look,
but
in
the
based
on
the
previous
inventories
we
are
making
progress
and
significant
progress
actually
surpassing.
J
Our
goals,
based
on
the
the
goal
lines
that
we
have
you
know
going
to
the
ultimate
23
2050
originally,
and
then
you
know
2030.,
and
when
we
bring
you
the
integrated
resource
plan
to
council
I
think
next
week
or
soon
I've
lost
track
of
the
exact
date
that
will
go
into
some
great
detail
on
specifically
the
energy
wholesale
side
and
how
we
are
tracking
toward
and
what
our
plans
are
to
meet
the
2030
carbon
free
goal
and
sort
of
to
give
an
initial
preview
of
that.
J
The
staff
has
put
together
an
aggressive
plan
to
to
meet
that
goal,
and
we
think
that
it's
within
reach
and
feasible.
Thank
you.
I
want
to
thank
you
for
your
report.
The
there
is.
This
is
one
of
the
most
important
things
that
we're
involved
in
in
the
city
in
preserving
and
protecting
our
environment
for.
M
Our
future,
our
children
and
we
heard
several
of
the
youth
environmental,
youth,
children,
youth
children,
new
speakers
coming
in
and
calling
in
and
telling
us
how
important
this
is,
and
we
know
it
is
important
to
our.
J
Future
and
to
our
presence
so
I.
Thank
you
for
the
the
effort
so
far
and
look
forward
to
more
more
progress.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Councilmember
Mayhem
thanks
mayor.
Thank
you
so
much
for
the
report
and
and
all
the
work
you
all
are
doing.
I
really
appreciate
it.
I
was
hoping
we
could
just
take
a
couple
of
minutes
to
talk
a
little
more
about
the
EV
charging
infrastructure
and
adoption.
I
was
hoping
to
see
more
data
in
the
report,
but
I
also
realized.
It
looks.
M
J
J
So
so
far
like
you
said,
63
stations
have
gone
in
as
a
result
of
the
Cali
VIP
project,
representing
about
1
million
of
the
14
million
spend.
So
we
do
expect.
M
A
lot
more
stations
to
come
in
the
next
years,
and
so
so
far
we
don't
have
too
many
insights
to
report.
You
know
with
the
pandemic.
M
J
J
M
Yeah
most
of
the
station
by
2024
2025,
you
know
you
know,
example
for
direct
current
fast
charging
stations.
It
takes
about
a
year
to
a
year
and
a
half
for
a
project
to
be
installed,
so
those
have
the
longest
timelines
and
we
are
seeing.
We
are
going
to
see
a
lot
more
of
those
projects
start
very
soon,
okay,
great
and
then
are
we.
How
are
we
deciding
between
level
two
versus
fast
charging
and
what
do
assume
consumers
prefer.
J
Fast
charging,
but
what
are
the
considerations
there?
So
the
initial
allocation
was
decided
by
the
CEC
between
level
two
and
fast
charging,
but
currently
there
is
a
gap
for
Benny.
M
C
Dc
fast
charging
because
there's
more.
B
Demand
on
the
developer
side
for
those
right
technology,
that's
that's
what
I
would
think.
Okay,
cool
and
I
assume
the
research
shows
that
the
more
that
we
make
this
investment
we're
hoping
to
facilitate
adoption.
Is
that
fair
to
say
yes
and
you
know,
there's
billions
more
coming
in
state
and
federal
funding
as
well?
Yeah,
that's
great,
and
then
finally,
you
talked
about
the
the
equitable
distribution
of
them.
Can
you
just
tell
us
again
what
the
what
the
distribution
looks
like
and
how
you're
deciding
that
yeah?
M
Income
and
disadvantaged
communities
right
are
those
mostly
multi-family
or.
B
Q
M
B
Public
got
it:
okay,
great
well,
I'm,
so
excited
about
that
strategy,
because
it
seems
to
me
and
you're
the
experts,
but
you
know
one
of
the
barriers
to
scaling
solar,
obviously
is
is
that
intermittency
issue
and
it
feels
like
EVS
are
one
of
those
places
where
we
can
scale
up
short-term
storage
and
shift
that
Supply
from
midday
to
the
when
the
demand
is
high
in
the
evening.
So
I
think
it's
I
think
it's
an
exciting
part
of
the
strategy
and
hope
to
learn
more
as
you
come
back.
When
will
we
get
another
update.
B
J
B
Middle
of
the
day,
okay,
cool,
but
but
probably
not
utilization
rates,
yet
right
of
the
Chargers
that
are
out
there.
No,
not
yet
that's
not
going
to
take
some
time.
Yes,
okay,
all
right!
Thanks
again,.
B
Thank
you.
It's
going
online
here
to
see
if
any
of
my
colleagues
have
questions,
if
not
I'll
jump
in
with
mine,
I
appreciate
where
councilmember
Mayhem
locked
off,
because
I
really
think
we're
thinking.
J
About
reducing
greenhouse
gas
emissions
in
this
city,
the
lowest
hanging
fruit
right
now
is
around
electric
vehicles.
If
we
think
about
at
least
when
we
originally
came
out
with
our
climate
plan,
I
think
it
was
63.
C
J
M
A
lot
yeah
it
went
down,
we
can
go
through
the
methodology
if
you
want
to
offline,
but
okay
yeah,
but
it
wasn't
anything
we
did.
It
was
the
methodology
that
changed.
It
was
mostly
the
methodology
that
changed
yes,
okay
in
any
bad
still
a
majority
of
our
emissions
and
gosh.
We
drive
a
lot
so
and
we're
all
trying.
B
B
Stuff
is
really
really
important.
One
concern
I
had
Kate
was
about
the
expiration
of
the
Cal
VIP
program,
which
I
thought
was
the
end
of
2023.
B
So
I
guess
my
question
is:
are
we
actually
going
to
use
all
those
rebates
that
were
made
available
or
are
we
going
to
leave
money
on
the
table?
Thank
you,
mayor.
Licardo
2023
is
the
expiration
of
our
contract
with
the
program
implementer
Center
for
sustainable
energy,
okay,
but
the
implementer
in
their
contract
with
the
California
energy
commission.
They
have
to
continue
to
implement
the
project
until
funds
are
exhausted,
so
we
would
just.
M
No
okay
I'm
in
that's
what
I
want
here,
nonetheless,
we'd
all
like
to
get
them
deployed
a
lot
faster.
My
office
and
I
have
had
some
in-depth
engagement
on
some
of
the
challenges
of
getting.
Some
of
these
charges
deployed.
B
So
what
we're
hearing
is
supply
chain
issues?
It's
still
taking
you
know
a
year
or
more
to
order
the
actual
electric
vehicle
charging
equipment,
PG
e
service
planning,
especially
for
direct
current
fast
charging
infrastructure
that
can
take
12
to
18
months
to
get
in
that
pipeline
and
then
to
another
extent
permitting,
but
which
is
something
we
need
to
investigate
more.
But
these
are
just
what
we
hear
anecdotally
from
the
applicants
in
the
Cali
VIP
project.
Okay
and
I'll.
B
Add
sorry
Ramses
from
dot
that
the
cost
of
DC
fast
charging
is,
is
just
very
high
right.
I
mean
this
is
this
is
a
substantial
investment
which
means
you're
having
to
install
upline
pieces
of
equipment
to
actually
bring
the
service
into
the
into
the
site?
I
mean
you
actually
need
to
reinforce
whatever
power
or
expand
the
amount
of
power
load.
That's
that's
right.
Okay,
so
there's
a
lot
more
infrastructure
to
it
than
just
a
little
stand.
B
Okay
got
it
well.
I
appreciate
that
and
if
to
the
extent
that
the
problem
is
permitting
I'm,
hoping
that
in
some
way
that's
prioritized
within
our
work
plan
over
in
PVC
side,
given
that
I
guess
the
fact
that
this
is
so
aligned
with
so
many
of
our
goals
and
I
know
I'm
looking
at
the
wrong
team
here
to
answer
that
question.
But
is
there
anybody?
There
is
no
wrong
team,
I!
B
M
The
speaking
on
the
same
theme
on
Long
electric
vehicles,
I
saw
on
page
four
there's
a
discussion
of
the
partnership
of
evolution,
First
Community,
Housing
and
Silicon
Valley
by
coalition,
the
co-develop
e-mobility
programs
and
services
and
I
know
that's
not
just
cars
but
other
stuff
too,
and
it
seems
to
me
that
the
really
challenging
part
of
this
and
the
really
important
part
is
trying
to
figure
out
how
we
can
help
make
a
market
that
is,
there's
something
that
families
can
pay
on
a
tight
budget
for
the
mobility,
if
they're
not
having
to
pay
the
cost
of
the
enormous
costs
of
having
a
car
and
I
know.
M
That's
a
very
big
ask
for
a
lot
of
folks
to
give
that
up
and
I'm
just
wondering
to
what
extent
in
all
this
sort
of
community
outreach
and
so
forth,
we're
really
doing
sort
of
the
harder
market.
Research
of
trying
to
understand.
M
M
That
could
be
solved
and
we
see
this
a
lot
in
Europe.
A
lot
of
European
communities
have
very
extensive
electric
car
sharing
clusters
and
communities,
and
it
works
very,
very
well,
and
it
solves
a
lot
of
problems
around
parking,
which
Lord
knows
we
have
particularly
and
many
of
the
modest
income.
Families
are
modest
income
neighborhoods
like
in
downtown
East,
San,
Jose
and
around
where
I
live
in
other
places,
there's
just
no
parking,
and
this
would
be
a
fantastic
solution.
In
addition
to
all
the
other
challenges
that.
B
We're
trying
to
help
families
overcome
and
the
cost
of
mobility,
and
so
I
guess.
The
question
is:
to
what
extent
are
we
also
engaging
that
sort
of
hard
research
that
could
help
us
bring
Partners
in
to
create
a
solution?
It's
a
great
question
mayor,
so
we're
tackling
this
from
multiple
sides.
Right,
one
is,
is:
do
people
even
want
this
period
right
without
the
kind
of
harder
numbers
and
through
the
emerging,
Mobility
action
plan
Outreach,
and
we
got
a
lot
of
feedback
that
folks
would
like
to
see
these
kinds
of
services,
but.
B
M
They're,
not
higher
income
right,
they
feel
like
these
kinds
of
services
cost
more
and
then
they
can
really
afford.
I,
don't
know
if
you
followed
the
the
price
increases
on
the
electric.
B
Scooters
but
they've
shot
up
from
you
know:
parsley
amounts
to
costing
you
know
five
dollars
just
to
get
across
from
you
know,
downtown
to
Japan
Town
at
this
point,
yeah
right
and
so
the
harder
market
research
is
being
done
now
with
some
of
the
companies
all
right.
So
we're
talking
to
some
of
these
companies.
Would
you
want
to
come
do
this?
How
would
you
do
this,
and
just
like
a
lot
of
these
systems
and
probably
a
lot
of
the
the
shared
micro
Mobility
systems?
B
My
guess
is,
and
I
don't
know
exactly
how
this
works
in
all
of
the
European
systems,
but
my
guess
is
most
of
those
have
substantial
subsidies
in
various
ways
that
keep
them
there,
and
so,
as
we
yeah
develop
those
relationships
deeper
with
the
companies
and
we're
doing
one
right
now,
where
we're
trying
to
figure
out
if
we
can
do
a
shared
system,
that
would
also
then
help
create
the
backbone
of
electric
charging
throughout
the
east
side
of
San
Jose.
B
We're
trying
to
see
if
we
can
yeah
if
we
can
get
that
information
in
hand.
So
we
really
understand
what
the
proposal
would
look
like
and
looking
for
Grants
to.
L
Both
help
support
the
development
of
that
and
then,
of
course,
once
we
get
the
information
the
program
itself.
Thank
you.
I
know.
This
is
hard
Ramsey,
so
I
appreciate
that
you
know
we're
trying.
This
is
not
easy.
I'm
guessing
that
with
the
subsy,
it's
probably
going
to
need
to
be
some
kind
of
vehicle
purchase
program
as
well
that
we
would
actually
buy
people's
cars
for
them.
I
buy
them
off
of
them,
rather
help
them
provide
help
provide
this.
Obviously,
that
would
make
this
thing
work.
L
B
For
for
cash
program
that
happened
under
under
Obama
right,
yeah
that
and
that
supposedly
actually
upgraded
the
the
fuel
standards
of
our
of
our
whole
Fleet
in
the
country
by
a
substantial
number
yeah.
It's
an
interesting
idea.
Yeah,
it's
one
way
to
really
accelerate
and
catalyze
change,
then,
on
the
climate,
smart
challenge
platform,
which
I
love,
is
really
cool
but
I
just
want
you
to
know,
I
signed
up
and
try
to
get
through
it
and
I've
heard
this
from
one
other
person.
If
you
have
solar
panels,
it
never
uploads
the
data
right.
B
So
it's
it's
a
little
clunky
and
challenging
and
I.
Don't
know
if
that's
something
you
guys
are
already
aware
of,
but
for
folks
who
have
panels
apparently
there's
some
some
glitches
I'm
happy
to
talk
offline,
but
but
I'm
glad
to
see
where
we've
got
the
platform
up
and
running
and
and
hopefully
we'll
get
more
people
jumping
on
board.
L
The
report
in
the
footnote
to
the
carb
site,
the
California
area,
resources
Board
site
because
I
was
trying
to
figure
out
how
do
we
get
from
20
to
60
.
I
I
didn't
count
the
dots,
but
it
looked
like
about
20
dots,
so
what's
carb
missing
that
we
think
we
found
in
these
other
40
fuel
cells.
L
B
So
there's
there's
not
really
a
good
data
source.
The
additional
number
that
I
mentioned
earlier
is
actually
directly
from
a
fuel
cell
company
so
and.
B
Q
Tried
to
use
this
what
was
available
online,
but
it's
it's.
We
have
figured
out.
It's
not
really
the
best
way
to
do
it,
thanks
Joey,
so
so
I
went
and
I
clicked
on
the
little
dots
and
there
apparently
are
multiple
companies
out
there.
Making
these
I
got
one
alter
G
systems,
Reliant
and
genture,
and
the
reason
why
I'm
meshing,
those
two
in
particular,
is
because
both
of
them
list
the
fuel
as
hydrogen.
Q
B
B
Yeah
and
there's
a
I
mean
there's
even
other
Pilots
out
there
as
well,
so
I
think
the
technology
is
definitely
being
tested
out.
I
think
they're.
Well
from
what
we
understand
and
again
we're.
You
know
we're
just
barely
beginning
to
dig
into
this
issue,
so
there's
definitely
more
work
to
be
done
around
it,
but
you
know
there
could
hydrogen
could
be
both
either
on-site
or
transport?
You
know
transported
and
so
it's
it
depends
on
kind
of
I.
B
Think
you
know
the
cost
part
of
it
is
what's
a
concert,
if
you're
depending
it.
So
if
somebody's
Trucking
in
hydrogen
from
somewhere
else,
then
obviously
that's
not
an
ideal.
Yeah
okay
got
it,
but
if
you
had
some
on-site
hydrolysis
with
solar
and
we'd
say
yippee,
that's
great
yeah,
I,
don't
know
enough
about
it.
Unfortunately,
but
you're
correct
in
that
there's
Pilots
hydrogen
fuel
cells
work
perfectly
they're
great
yeah.
The
issue
is:
there's
no
hydrogen
distribution
system
for
hydrogen
fuel
right.
So
you
have
to
make
the
hydrogen
you
could
truck
it
in.
B
There
are
sources
of
hydrogen,
but
it's
expensive
to
hydrolyze
fossil
fuels
to
make
hydrogen
right.
If
you
did
it
on
site
by
having
enough
solar
energy
to
make
the
hydrogen
that
you
then
use
in
your
fuel
cell,
you
would
have
enough
solar
energy
just
to
power.
Your
building.
You
wouldn't
actually
build
an
energy
system
so
that
you
would
create
a
new
energy
source
right.
D
B
B
That
is
the
companies
who
believe
they
need
them
to
really
understand
why
they
believe
they
need
them
because
I
know
we'll
get
a
pretty
predictable
argument
from
the
makers
of
these
fuel
cells
and
and
I.
Think.
K
We
know
clearly
what
the
argument
is
from
from
the
other
side
from
from
Advocates
who
want
to
see
them
gone
it'd,
be
helpful
to
know
why
people
believe
they
need
them.
E
T
Great.
Thank
you
for
for
hearing
me
out
on
that
all
right.
Let's
go
any
other
questions.
Councilman
Cohen
that
was
from
before,
okay,
I,
think
that
covers
all
the
questions.
Let's
vote,
Venice.
T
Thank
you
all
right.
Thanks
everybody!
Oh
we,
okay,
we're
gonna,
accelerate
Jennifer,
told
me
we're
already
at
four
o'clock.
So
let's
go
to
8.3,
which
is
the
mobile
home
park.
Land
use
designation
status
report.
We
have
a
presentation.
T
T
T
T
Yes,
hi
Michael
Rio,
deputy
director
of
city-wide
planning,
I'm
joined
by
Rosalind
Huey,
Deputy
manager
and
Chris
Burton
director
of
PBC
tonight.
We're
going
to
talk
to
you
about
an
item
that
went
to
I
was
going
to
say:
tne
I
think
it
was
CED
committee
last
month
related
to
mobile
home
parks.
T
So
just
I'm,
going
to
quick
I,
know
make
this
fast
today,
but
just
really
quickly.
We've
been
working
on
policy
framework
to
both
provide
additional
guidance
on
the
closure
requirements
and
process
for
mobile
home
parks,
as
well
as
a
framework
to
discourage
the
closure
of
mobile
home
parks.
We've
been
working
on
this
through
2015
since
2015
and
I'm
going
to
skip
very
quickly
through
this
and
cut
to
the
chase.
T
We
were
given
Direction,
so
we
we
did
change
the
landings
designation
at
council's
requests
on
two
mobile
home
parks,
one
in
North,
San
Jose,
and
one
in
District
Seven
that
were
designated
for
urban
residential
that
were
seen
as
having
the
greatest
threat
to
conversion
council
did
direct
us
to
come
back
with
a
budget
request
to
change
the
landings
designations,
to
promote
preservation
of
the
remaining
56
parks
in
San,
Jose
and
staff
that
got
sidetracked
quite
frankly
by
covid.
So
as
part
of
the
budget
process.
T
This
in
the
the
current
budget
process
that
and
or
the
current
budget
or
the
process
that
ended
in
June,
we
were
allocated
thirty
thousand
dollars
to
change
the
general
plan
designation
on
five
mobile
home
parks
that
were
at
the
greatest
risk
of
conversion,
and
that's
we
did
an
analysis
of
that.
We
presented
it
to
CED
and
I'm
going
to
quickly
run
through
that
analysis.
T
So
the
first
criteria
we
used
are
those
parks
that
are
designated
residential
neighborhood.
That's
because
these
Parks
already
allow
residential
use.
In
theory,
you
could
redevelop
them
with,
for
example,
single-family
homes
if
a
property
owner
so
desired
without
a
general
plan
Amendment-
and
there
are
42
of
the
56
Parks,
have
this
General
plan
land
use
designation?
T
Then
we
used
a
a
fiscal
analysis
of
opportunity.
Housing
also
AKA
what
became
in
some
ways,
sb9
housing
that
was
done
by
strategic
economics
as
part
of
the
four-year
review,
really
is
a
proxy
to
understand
the
market
for
Town
Homes.
Really,
because
that's
the
type
of
of
product
we
could,
we
anticipated
there
could
be
Market
interest
in
developing
or
redeveloping
mobile
home
parks
for
and
for
reasons
I'll
get
into
in
a
minute.
T
So
we
we
looked
at
all
of
the
parks
that
were
in
tier
one,
which
is
a
very
strong
market
and
tier
two,
which
is
a
moderately
strong
market,
and
we
identified
three
Parks
only
out
of
the
56
that
were
in
the
tier
one
or
tier
two
market
area
and
that's
okress,
Lamplighter
and
Quail
Hollow.
T
The
other
reason
the
importance
of
this
study
and
why
we
looked
at
the
feasibility
of
town
homes
is
because
of
a
provision
in
the
residential
neighborhood
Landing
designation.
Now
the
residential
Landing
designation,
the
density
that
is
assigned
or
supported
in
that
designation
is
a
dwelling
it's
the
acre,
which
is
your
standard
kind
of
single-family
home
in
and
around
downtown
on,
like
a
5700
square
foot
lot,
it's
their
typical
Landing
says
a
nation.
Throughout
the
city,
however,
it
does
have
a
provision
at
the
prevailing
density
is
greater
than
eight
billions
to
acre.
T
You
could
develop
up
to
16
drawings,
the
acre,
which
is
right
in
that
sort
of
ballpark,
of
a
of
a
more
traditional
townhome
type
of
project.
So
that's
so
we
identified
12
Parks
total
that
were
the
prevailing
density,
could
support
Redevelopment
into
a
town
home
type
density.
So
these
we
we
saw
is
definitely
a
priority
for
for
for
redesignation.
T
So
then,
because
we
had
thirty
thousand
dollars,
we
could
only
do
five.
We.
What
we
did
is
we
took
the
the
the
first,
the
three
that
were
in
the
top
tier
one
and
tier
two
and
then
look
at
the
the
remaining
ones
that
had
a
prevailing
density
of
16
dual
units
or
greater
and
decided
to
pick
the
top,
the
largest
two
parks
to
add
to
get
to
a
total
of
five.
T
The
reason
for
picking
the
largest
two
is
one
it
would
have
the
most
benefit
for
the
most
people,
and
also
there
was
a
thought
that
larger
Parks
might
be
more.
There
might
be
more
of
a
desire
incentive
or
to
redevelop
some
of
the
larger
parks,
foreign,
so
just
to
reiterate
the
five
parks
that
we
are
recommending
prioritizing
through
the
thirty
thousand
dollars
that
Council
gave
us
our
Oak
Crest
Lamplighter.
E
Know
that
my
last
name
is
Brio
and
Mill
Pond,
one.
E
The
next
so
then,
before
I
get
there
I
just
want
to
acknowledge
the
the
the
memo
from
council
member
Esparza
co-signed
by
councilmember
Foley,
Jimenez,
Perales
and
Cohen,
and
we
just
want
to
say
that
we
support
all
of
the
recommendations
in
that
memo,
including
including
Mill
Pond
2,
as
to
make
it
to
make
it
13..
N
D
That
in
that
memo,
so
we
will
be
submitting
a
mid-year
budget
request
to.
D
Today
we
should
prioritize
for
changing.
We
would
initiate
General
plan
amendments
in
in
in
the
spring
and
we
would
do
planning
commissions.
I
would
anticipate
this
summer
or
fall.
We
are
looking
at
a
really
as
outlined
in
as
far
as
councilmember
as.
D
That
we
reach
out
to
some
of
the
leadership
in
the
mobile
home
parks
Community,
including
housing,
commissioner
Martha
O'connell
and
others
to
sort
of
help
come
up
with
a
strategy
whereby
we
can
get
the
information.
The
mobile
home
park.
Residents
need
to
understand
what's
being
proposed,
but
in
a
way
that
is
much
more
expeditive
and
and
and
quicker,
and
not
as
much
work
so
that
we
can
actually.
D
D
D
If
you're
online
and
you
want
to
raise
your
hand
to
speak,
this
is
the
time
to
do
that.
If
you're
on
the
phone
press
star,
six,
no
wait
not
star
six.
What
is
it
to
raise
your
hand?
It
is
star
six
to
raise
your
hand.
D
My
name
is
Donna
Sanchez
I'm
speaking
on
be
on
the
item.
8.3
I
live
at
Cleo
Hall
a
mobile
home
park.
I
am
requesting
that
the
city
council
designate
a
plan
necessary
for
the
completion
to
amend
the
general
plan.
Land
use
designated
for
the
13
mobile
home
parks
listed
and
also
for
the
remaining
parks.
O
Unmute,
the
next
speaker,
it
is
star
nine
to
raise
your
hand
if
you
are
on
the
phone
Nancy.
P
Looks
like
you're
not
on
the
phone.
If
you
are
at
star
six
to
unmute
Sarah,
can
you
hear
me
yeah,
yeah?
Okay,
thank
you
good
afternoon
and
thank
you
for
this
opportunity
to
speak.
My
name
is
Nancy
Stevens
and
I
live
in
the
Mill
Pond
senior
Mobile
Home
Park
Community.
P
You
should
have
before
you
the
email
I
sent
to
the
city
clerk
regarding
the
matter
of
mobile
home
park,
land
use,
designation,
I
included
in
my
email.
The
message
I
brought
to
the
CED
committee
on
September
26th,
as
well
as
a
follow-up
email,
I
sent
to
planning,
building
and
code
enforcement.
The
CED
committee
and
city
council
members
on
the
27th
of
September
I
would
urge
you
to
read
the
details
on
your
own.
If
you
haven't
already,
but
I
want
to
emphasize
my
main
points,
we
have
visited
this
topic
long
enough.
We
need
action.
P
I
support,
moving
forward
with
the
work
to
change
the
land
use
designation
for
the
13
Parks
assessed
by
staff.
In
addition,
I
would
like
the
city
council
I,
urge
you
to
recognize
Mill
Pond
2,
along
with
Mill
Pond
one
in
this
process,
as
they
are
owned
and
operated
as
one
Park
and
I
urge
you
to
revisit
and
come
up
with
a
detailed
plan
committed
to
changing
the
land.
Use
designation
for
the
remainder
of
the
mobile
home
parks
in
San.
P
P
P
N
D
D
We
are
in
a
priority
Development
Area,
so
I,
while
I
appreciate
the
the
conversations
around
Equity
that
that
are
being
done
now,
whereas
they
were
not
being
done
then,
and
I
appreciate
that
13
Parks
will
be.
You
know
changed
today.
I'm
super
grateful
for
that.
So
yes
on
that,
but
they
all
need
to
be
changed
and
what
I'd
really
like
to
know
is
is
part
of
the
work
that
needs
to
be
done,
that
we
have
to
go
back.
N
To
the
MTC
or
whatever
and
say,
yeah,
we've
got
to
redraw
all
these
maps
and
take
these
people
out
and
all
of
this,
in
addition
to
that,
the
state
law
now
says
we
have
to
align
our
zoting
with
our
land
use,
designation
and
my
understanding
is
because
of
what
is
existing.
We
are
here.
We
are
present.
We've
been
here
for
a
long
time
that
then
that
should
default
to
what
we
are,
which
is
a
mobile
home,
so
I
am
not
seeing
what
all
of
this
work
is.
That
has
to
be
done.
N
N
N
Hello,
this
is
Judy
erkanat
and
I
live
in
Quail,
Hollow
mobile,
home
Community
I,
of
course
support
the
mobile
home
park,
land
use
designation
for
my
Park
and
the
others
on
this
short
list
and
the
longer
list.
As
you
can
see,
it's
quite
an
emotional
issue
for
especially
for
a
lot
of
us,
seniors
and
I
know
in
my
park.
N
There
are
people
who
have
lived
here
for
20
or
30
years,
and
this
myself
I
was
the
only
way
I
can
afford
to
live
back
in
San
Jose,
where
my
children
are,
and
we've
got
a
huge
development
of
I.
Don't
know
how
many
units
going
up
across
Bascom,
so
it
would
be
Bascom
at
Southwest
Expressway,
and
this
this
park
is
just
a
smallish
community
that
just
needs
to
be
kept
as
it
is
for
the
sake
of
all
of
us
seniors
who
need
somewhere,
affordable
that
we
can
live.
N
Martha
O'connell
regional
manager
for
gsmo
well
representing
thousands
of
mobile
home
park
residents
in
San,
Jose
I,
will
call
out
a
sentence
in
the
Esparza
at
all
memo.
We
know
very
well
where
the
community
stands
on
this.
Their
support
has
been
consistent
and
unwavering
as
proof
of
that
I
have
submitted
196
pages
of
emails
for
March
2020,
making
these
same
arguments
that
people
have
been
making
with
the
more
recent
emails
that
they
have
been
sending
in
on
the
last
in
the
last
two
weeks.
So
the
council
is
well
aware
of
where
we
stand.
N
E
Do
this
for
five
Parks,
that's
what
you
would
pay
for
3.75
tiny
homes,
so
it
seems
to
me
that
this
is
is
money
extremely
well
spent.
I
would
also
give
a
shout
out
to
all
the
mobile
home
residents
who
have
been
waiting
for
years
for
this.
They
are
exhausted,
they're,
emotionally
and
physically,
exhausted
and
I'm
going
to
quote.
N
D
O
N
So
my
name
is
Rebecca
Aiello
I
live
at
The,
Chateau
LaSalle
I
have
been
living
here
with
me
and
my
family
for
the
past
15
years.
Just
in
my
community
I
know
we
have
a
beautiful
Community
here.
I.
Don't
think
that
this
is
a
place
for
pickings
for
new
Townhomes
I
am
definitely
in
favor
of
the
mobile
home
parks,
land
use,
designation.
E
N
Don't
make
the
rest
of
us
homeless
and
having
us
find
a
new
way
just
protect
our
homes.
That's
all
we're
asking
for.
If
you
need
places
for
Town
Homes,
there
are
designated
areas
everywhere,
I
see
new
stores
going
up
new
Costcos,
please
redesignate,
that
land
use
for
new
homes
stop
picking
on
the
places
that
are
ready
exist.
Thank
you.
So
much
for
your
time,
I
appreciate
it.
Okay,.
N
That
that
you
have
done
and
I
just
I'm
from
the
seniors
are
so
important.
We
just
can't
move
it's
extremely
difficult
to
move
after
you've
lived
in
some
in
a
place
for
25.
D
Years
and
it's
very
important
that
all
the
mobile
homes
about
all
the
mobile
home
parks
get
included,
but
thank
you
so
much
for
the
work
that
you
have
done
and
I
just
know
that
you're
going
to
continue.
Thank
you
very.
N
N
This
color
is
our
last
caller
we.
So
if
hi,
my
name
is
Glenna
mol
chapter
president
I
would
like
to
thank
Michael
Brio
for
his
mobile
home
status
report
and
council
members,
Esparza
Foley,
Jimenez,
Perales
and
Cohen
for
their
recent
memorandum.
N
D
If
you
really
value
the
trust
and
respect
of
your
constituents
fulfill
the
promise
that
you
made
to
us
over
two
and
a
half
years
ago,
adopt
the
Esparza,
Foley,
Jimenez,
Perales
and
Cohen
memorandum,
we
have
waited
long
enough
for
this
to
be
resolved.
It
is
time
to
put
an
end
to
the
stress
and
the
anxiety
that
we've
we've
all
experienced,
that
has
monopolized
the
lives
of
mobile
home
residents
for
the
last
seven
plus
years.
It
is
time
to
redesignate
all
mobile.
E
Hello,
this
is
Joan
McKay
from
Quail,
Hollow
and
I've
been
a
resident
in
this
park
for
about
19
years
and
I
am
very
distressed
that
it
has
taken
seven
years
and
more
for
the
land
designation,
mobile,
Homeland,
designation
to
be
issued
to
our
parks
and
other
communities
on
the
list.
You
know
it's,
we
sit
here
and
it's
a
city
council
we
talk
to,
and
then
the
city
council
passes
the
issue
off
to
the
Committees,
and
the
committee
then
has
a
subcommittee
and
then
the
subcommittee
needs
to
hire
a
consultant.
E
It's
really
hard
to
understand
how
any
work
gets
done
with
all
of
this,
with
this
issue
being
passed
off
so
many
times
in
seven
years.
You
know
we
as
a
seniors
in
this
park,
and
we
built
this
community
with
our
Blood
Sweat
and
Tears.
We
need
your
consideration.
We
don't
need
to
wait
another
year
for
this
designation
to
be
issued
for
all
of
our
mobile
home
parks.
Thank
you
very
much
for
your
time.
E
E
E
Thank
you,
councilmember
Spartan.
Thank
you
mayor.
Thank
you
to
the
planning
team
for
all
your
hard
work
on
this.
Thank
you
a
big
thank
you
to
all
the
mobile
home
residents.
Who've
spoken
up
consistently
and
made
your
voices
heard
and
you've
been
doing
this.
For
the
past
seven
years,
we've
heard
a
loud,
clear
and
consistent
message
from
our
mobile
home
residents
that
you
want
your
parks
and
homes
protected
and
want
to
feel
secure
in
your
homes.
E
In
light
of
staff's
analysis,
we
did
want
to
protect
or
to
prioritize
completing
work
on
the
13,
most
at-risk
parks
and
we
included
Mill
Pond
2
along
with
Mill
Pond
one
in
that
list,
because
they
are
functionally
the
same.
Community
I
know,
councilmember,
Davis
and
I
before
covid
would
go
together
to
meet
with
that
Community.
That's.
T
Why
we
ask
that
staff
return
is
part
of
the
mid-year
budget
review,
with
the
request
for
resources
that
they
need
to
complete
this
work
this
year,
this
fiscal
year,
but
really
we
need
a
detailed
plan
and
timeline
for
all
of
the
parks.
So
we
ask
that
staff
return
as
part
of
the
budget
process
with
that
multi-year
plan,
along
with
the
needed
funding,
as
this
work
is
also
part
of
our
housing
element.
T
E
Especially
because
we
already
know
we
already
know
where
our
mobile
home
residents
stand
on
this
work
and
that
they
just
want
to
see
it
done.
I
know
that
we
have
two
processes
that
we
are
ongoing
right
now
we
have
the
land
use
and
rezoning
work.
That's
ongoing
as
part
of
our
housing
element
work
and
we
have
the
conforming
rezonings
for
SB
1333.
E
So
my
question
is:
is
there
a
way
that
we
can
leverage
that
process
to
make
our
mobile
homework
more
efficient?
Can
we
tie
it
to
that
work
and
is
there
a
way
for
us
to
Simply
notice,
residents
and
park
owners
about
this
work,
rather
than
creating
more
Community
meetings
with
communities
and
residents
who
have
already
voiced
their
support
for
this
work?
D
B
The
idea
is
that
we
would
hire
a
peak
staffer
to
get
all
this
work
done,
that
Peak
staffer
would
report
to
the
team.
That
is
aligning
zoning
with
the
general
plan
and
be
part
of
that
larger
team's
effort,
and
we
were
definitely
going
to
explore
ways
to
really
expedite
this.
I
mean
we
want
to
do
it,
sort
of,
in
conjunction
with
getting
feedback
from
people
in
mobile
home
parks,
to
some
of
the
leadership
there
to
understand
how
it
works,
but
we
have
thoughts
of
like
you
know.
B
Maybe
we
have
one
community
meeting
quite
frankly
for
all
of
the
parks
we
do
one
hearing
for
all
56
parks
and
not
separate
them
out
or
batch
them
up.
So
those
are
the
kind
of
things
that
we're
going
to
explore
because
it's
very
clear
that
people
wanted
to
want
it
to
get
done
faster
and
I
I.
Don't
think
you
know
when
we
did
the
mobile
home
park
conversion
ordinance.
That
was
a
lot
more
contentious,
there's
a
lot
of
concerns.
It
could
have
gone
different
directions.
B
I
think
this
is
very
clear
that
people
that
live
in
the
Parks
want
this.
So
so,
yes,
okay,
thank
you,
and
if
we
do
one
one
meeting,
I
think
I
think
I
did
the
first
hybrid
Community
input
meeting,
and
so
we
had
a
physical
meeting,
but
there
were
ways
for
folks
to
call
in
similar
to
a
city,
council,
meeting
and
I
I.
Don't
think
that
you
would
have
residents
arguing
with
a
simplified
and
streamlined
approach.
All
right!
Thank
you
for
that.
B
Lastly,
I
I
just
want
to
urge
all
of
my
colleagues
to
support
moving
this
work
forward,
giving
our
thousands
of
families
and
our
seniors
the
peace
of
mind
that
we
are
doing
everything
that
we
can
to
protect
their
homes.
We
unanimously
voted
to
do
this
work.
Let's
keep
our
word
to
our
residents
and
make
sure
that
staff
has
the
resources
they
need
and
a
clear
timeline
to
complete
it,
and
with
that
I'd
like
to
move
the
memo
forward.
Second,
all
right
motion
customers.
T
T
To
make
it
all
happen,
we're
going
to
look
for
ways
to
consolidate
and
accelerate,
and
that's
a
good
thing.
Whatever
extent
this
takes
time
and
I
know
it
always.
B
In
2015,
we
implemented
a
series
of
steps
that
would
require
any
applicant
really
to
go
through
the
council
if
they
were
going
to
try
to
replace
mobile
home
park
with
anything
else,
and
there
would
have
to
be
a
very
substantial
package
to
compensate
a
mobile
home
park
residents,
the
mobile
home
owners
and
a
very
extensive
process,
and
the
time
we
put
that
in
place.
We
believed
that
was
about
that's
that's
at
least
as
as
onerous
on
a
developer,
probably
far
more
so
than
a
general
plan.
B
Amendment
would
be,
it
would
take
a
whole
lot
more
time
and
a
whole
lot
more
money
and
I
just
want
to
make
sure
I'm
checking
my
assumptions
here
is:
is
that
fair
statement?
B
Yeah
I
mean
that
that
is
correct.
That's
why
and
staff's
response
to
councils
ask
in
council's
direction.
We
actually
responded
with
a
memo
that
said
that
we-
and
you
know
we
understood
why
people
wanted
this,
but
the
protections
that
the
council
had
already
approved
were
already
in
place
to
to
do
that,
and
the
council
would
ultimately
have
to
make
a
decision
anyway.
E
And
I
can
assure
anyone
who
has
any
questions
that
was
a
whole
lot
harder
than
just
a
simple
General
plan,
Amendment.
So
I
guess
I
want
to
assure
those
who
are
watching
listening.
That
first.
M
B
N
B
I
happen
to
think
that's
extremely
unlikely
based
on
everything
we
know,
but
I
just
don't
want
people
either
a
having
an
unnecessary
amount
of
anxiety
or
B
having
a
false
sense
of
security
in
either
case.
The
world
is
not
going
to
change
dramatically
regardless
because
the
barriers
are
in
place
today
and
when
we
put
more
barriers
in
place
in
the
months
ahead.
It's
still
going
to
be
up
to
six
members
of
the
council
and
a
developer.
D
And
obviously,
a
very
extensive
Community
process,
so
I
hope
that
people
feel
a
little
better,
knowing
that
the
protections
are
in
place
to
make
it
extremely
unlikely
and
I
hope
that
we
can
move
forward
in
a
way.
That's
that's,
Cloud,
driven
and
and
assures
everybody
the
full
extent
of
law
that
we're
doing
everything
we
can.
D
Okay,
we
have
a
motion.
Let's
vote,
Jimenez.
D
Sorry
I
apologize
stepped
away.
I
was
just
checking
to
see
if
I
was
somehow
not
muted.
I
was
checking
my
microphone,
so
I'll
go
back
to
paralysis,
Cohen
aye,
Carrasco,
aye
Davis.
Yes,
as
far
as
that,
yes,
arenas,
yes,
fully,
I
Mayhem,
hi,
Jones,
hi,
Ricardo
hi.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
D
Okay,
we're
on
to
item
6.3
I
should
say
we're
going
back
to
item
623
which
we're
going
to
hear.
D
P
D
D
D
J
O
You
will
be
hearing
next
for
those
to
become
effective
at.
D
The
first
of
the
year,
2023
environmental
services
staff,
will
return
by
December
of
this
year,
22
with
an
update
regarding
multi-family
electric
vehicle
charging.
Infrastructure
changes
to
the
building
reach
code
and
staff
will
also
return
to
council,
with
additional
proposed
reach
code
updates
once
those
cost.
Effectiveness
studies
are
available.
F
So,
as
Amanda
mentioned
every
three
years
we
go
through
this
process.
This
coming
January,
we
will
be
adopting
the
2022
California
building
codes
based
on
the
2021
International
building
code,
and
this
in
turn
translates
to
Title
24
in
the
municipal
code
for
the
building
code
and
title
17
for
the
fire
code.
F
So
this
allows
us
to
create
local
amendments
to
State
codes
and
from
code
cycle
to
code
cycle
things
move
around
and
section
references
change.
So
we
have
the
opportunity
to
update
the
municipal
code
to
ensure
code
references
it
languages
match
the
new
building
code
and
we're
also
able
to
eliminate
any
local
amendments
that
have
been
adopted
in
the
the
new
codes
foreign.
F
Recommendations
for
Title
24,
we
will
retain
the
four
amendments
we
currently
have
related
to
building
separations
special
testing
and
inspections
for
concrete
foundations
and
gypsum
board
embraced
well.
Panels
which
disallowed
the
use
of
certain
materials
and
construction
methods
like
chipboard
or
stucco.
F
We
work
collaboratively
with
other
Fire
Marshals
and
agencies
within
the
county
to
establish
not
only
the
adoption
process,
but
the
Amendments
that
we're
presenting
the
San
Jose
fire
department
is
recommending
the
following
adoptions.
One
is
for
seven
title
1712,
which
covers
the
2022
fire
code
as
well
as
title
6
1768,
which
covers
the
hazardous
material
storage
permit
for
the
title.
1712
2022
fire
code.
The
recommendations
are
to
retain
four
amendments
to
the
two,
the.
J
Amendments
to
the
current
amendments.
D
We
are
modifying
31
amendments.
Thank
you.
S
We
are
making
one
additional
Amendment,
which
is
a
the
inspection,
testing
and
maintenance
requirements.
We
have
an
adoption
to
notify
the
inspection
compliance
service
company
that
is
contracted
with
the
city
of
San
Jose
for
all
of
their
testing
and
maintenance,
and
we
propose
to
retain
85
amendments
that
are
currently
adopted.
S
Thank
you
for
titles,
1768,
the
house,
material
storage,
permit.
We
are
modifying
seven
amendments.
These
amendments
are
modified
for
minor
Clarity
Corrections
and
utilizing
the
2022
California
fire
code,
definitions,
we're
also
removing
invalid
and
Legacy
notification
requirements
that
provided
confusion
for
our
customers.

Let's
go
to
item
8.1
actions
related
to
some
land
over
on
West
St,
John,
Street
and
North
Montgomery,
Street,
actually
known
as
Lottie,
but
not
to
be
confused
with
the
police
parking
lot.
K
Welcome
to
MTN
team
hi,
Kevin
mayor
Nancy,
Klein
office
of
Economic
Development
good
afternoon
to
you,
mayor
and
Council
Nancy
Klein,
director
of
Economic
Development
and
cultural
Affairs
I'm
here
with
Kevin
ice
from
Economic
Development
cultural
Affairs
and
in
the
audience
available
for
questions
are
Cameron
day
and
on
the
zoom.
Our
Aryan
Colin
and
Jessica
Zink.
K
As
you
may
have
noted,
we
have
very
long
recommendations
for
you
on
this
item,
but
at
the
Crux
of
those
several
pages
of
recommendations,
we're
asking
for
Council
support
to
adopt
an
addendum
to
the
downtown
strategy,
2040
final
eir
and
the
associated
mitigation
monitoring
and
Reporting
plans
also
asking
for
authorization
of
relocation,
assistance
for
517
West,
St,
John
Street.
R
The
background
here-
and
we
will
be
brief-
is
that
in
2016,
a
dispute
arose
between
the
Trammel
Crow
folks,
City
and
sharks,
and
the
issue
was
the
ability
for
the
city
to
retain
our
parking
obligations.
In
light
of
the
then
Trammel
Crow
project
moving
forward,
a
settlement
agreement
was
created
and
the
settlement
agreement
obligates
the
city
to
acquire
Parcels
needed
to
construct
a
lot
e
parking
facility
and
we're
going
to
show
you
an
aerial
in
just
a
second,
and
in
order
to
do
so.
The
city
has
been
negotiating
the
purchase
of
properties
in
that
area.
R
Since
2016.
we've
already
purchased
two
properties,
as
noted
above
that
was
in
2017.,
and
just
to
give
you
the
language
directly
from
the
settlement
agreement
and
which
is
embedded
in
the
arena
management
agreement.
The
city
will
make
good
faith
efforts
to
purchase
the
parcels
as
soon
as
reasonably
possible,
using
the
city's
condemnation
Powers
if
necessary,
which
rights
shall
be
exercised
only
in
the
sole
discretion
of
when
the
city
council
and
only
after
the
city
council
has
adopted
a
resolution
of
necessity,
which
is
what
we're
asking
for
today
and
just
briefly
you'll
see
at
the
bottom.
R
The
two
properties
that
are
already
have
already
been
acquired
by
the
city,
140
North,
Montgomery
and
525
West,
St
John
and
the
two
properties
we're
talking
about
today
are
517
West,
Saint
John
known
as
the
Thorson
properties
and
150
North,
Montgomery
Street,
which
is
the
property
owned
by
the
Jimenez
Family,
and
with
that
I'll
turn
this
over
to
Kevin
thanks
Nancy
thanks
Nancy
hi,
my
name
is
Kevin
ice
I'm,
the
real
estate
manager
in
the
office
of
Economic,
Development
and
cultural
affairs.
R
R
The
city
initially
offered
our
appraised
values
to
the
owners,
including
1033
letters.
These
offers
were
unsuccessful
and
the
owners
countered
at
five
and
a
half
million
for
West
St
John
and
three
and
a
half
million
for
one
150
North
Montgomery.
In
an
effort
to
settle
on
price
and
achieve
a
consensual
transaction.
The
city
then
offered
above
our
appraised
values,
5
million
for
517
West,
St,
John
and
1.925
million
for
150
North
Montgomery,
with
IRS
Section
1033.
Letters
included
as
well,
which
provides
tax
advantages.
R
R
And
then
finally,
deposits
will
be
required
after
filing
in
court
and
the
court
would
decide
the
deposit
amount.
We
anticipate
up
to
6
million
five
hundred
and
seventy
thousand
being
necessary,
which
is
the
combined
estimated
fair
market
value
of
the
properties.
R
So,
a
little
more
about
the
properties
517
West
St
John
is
0.44
acres
in
size
located
at
the
northeast
corner
of
West
St,
John,
Street
and
Barack
Obama
Boulevard.
It
has
a
10,
000
square
foot,
industrial
building
constructed
in
1939.
The
building
is
home
to
two
occupants:
Thorsen
Thailand,
Stone
and
shark
sports
and
entertainment.
Thorson,
tile
and
stone
would
require
relocation
assistance.
The
sharks
have
agreed
to
waive
any
claims
to
relocation
assistance.
R
K
K
A
city
commissioned
review
appraisal
of
the
valbridge
report
found
that
it
failed
to
appropriately
analyze
the
use
restrictions
from
the
safety
zone
overlay
and
therefore
inappropriately
used
comparable
sales
with
residential
Tower
potential.
Without
adjustments
for
the
safety
zone,
thus
inappropriately
inflating
the
appraised
value,
the
city
has
been
negotiating
with
the
owners
for
eight
years
now,
having
first
made
an
offer
to
purchase
the
property
in
2016
and
making
subsequent
offers
in
2018
and
2021
prior
to
the
currently
active
offer,
staff
will
continue
to
engage
the
owners
and
develop
any
opportunity
to
achieve
a
consensual
transaction.
E
E
A
150
North
Montgomery
property
is
roughly
7
000
square
feet.
It's
a
vacant
lot.
The
owners
purchased
the
property
in
2002
for
275
thousand
dollars.
There
are
no
active
plans
for
development.
A
The
city
is
required
to
pay
up
to
5
000
of
the
property
owners
appraisal
fees.
Despite
our
offering
to
pay
the
fee,
the
owners
did
not
commission
an
appraisal.
They
countered
the
city's
offer
three
million
500
000,
citing
that
their
price
isn't
based
on
Market
data,
but
rather
what
feels
appropriate
to
them?
Our
increased
offer
of
one
million
nine
hundred
and
twenty
five
thousand
dollars
or
272
dollars.
A
square
foot
failed
to
spark
a
dialogue
with
that
I'll
turn
it
back
to
Nancy.
Just
a
couple.
A
A
We
have
made
numerous
good
faith
more
than
good
faith
efforts
to
come
to
agreement
and
that,
in
order
to
move
forward,
we
are
asking
Council
to
support
the
actions
described
today
and
in
the
same
time
frame
we
will
continue
to
negotiate
with
the
owners
to
reach
Accord
prior
to
moving
forward
with
eminent
domain
with
that
Count
Council.
Thank
you
very
much
and
staff
is
available
for
questions.
A
A
I
know
we
could
choose
around
the
City
of
Santa
Clara
and
it's
I
in
a
certain
area
of
the
city.
It's
having
new
housing.
Q
And
I
know
the
same
in
district
one
council
person
vice
mayor,
Jones
District,
you
know
you
have
a
real
ambitious
feature.
A
Of
you
know,
building
you
know:
low
income,
housing
and
moderate
income,
housing
mix
ideas
with
with
no
parking
issues.
Q
Plan
for
downtown
in
the
future
of
west
parking
overall
I'm,
really
it's
a
really
exciting
plan
and
it's
hopeful
I.
A
Q
Mentioned
your
ambitious
good
ideas
and
it
would
be
I
I
wish
it
could
be
more
than
just
ambition
and
it
can
really
be
put
to
practical
use
and
good
luck
on
all
of
our
efforts.
How
we
can
do
that
in
the
upcoming
decades.
With
that
said,
I
guess
the
upcoming
decade,
with.
K
That
said,
I
also
wanted
to
put
out
there
is
the
future
of
this
sort
of
purchase.
Is
it
with
the
intent
to
possibly
one
day,
move
the
sharks
from
the
arena
and
use
the
arena.
Q
As
some
sort
of
Diridon
Station
planning
purpose
and
if
it
is,
can
we
start
to
have
those
conversations.
K
Openly
now,
instead
of
five
or
ten
years
down
the
road,
sorry
to
ask
such
a
question:
I
hope
it
can
be
relevant
and
good
luck.
How
to
address
such
a
question.
Thank
you.
Victor
Gomez.
K
Speak
on
behalf
of
the
Downtown
Association
in
favor
of
the
staff
recommendation,
as
outlined
in
your
presentation,
including
the
acquisition
of
all
necessary
land
for
this
parking
facility.
The
lot
e
footprint
has
been
planned
and
located
in
a
manner
which
is
compatible
with
the
greatest
public
good
and
the
least
private
impact
to
assemble
the
parking
necessary
for
those
surrounding
uses.
K
It's
unfortunate
that
we
have
ended
up
at
this
point,
but
we're
glad
to
see
that
the
city
is
taking
these
critical
steps
to
acquire
these
properties
with
that
said,
we
just
wanted
to
keep
it
brief
and
say
we
are
in
full
support
of
these
actions
and
we
ask
for
your
full
support.
Thank
you
back
to
the
council.
Thank
you
back
to
the
council
council,
member
Cohen
yeah.
Thank
you.
This
is
just
a
question
out.
Q
Of
my
naivete
I
am
not
familiar
with
the
greater
with
the
general
purpose,
parking
Capital
fund
itself,
where
this
is
being
funded.
Can
you
explain.
K
B
Question
another
time
to
learn
more
about
that
fund.
I!
Don't
need
to
learn
it
right
now,
but
there's
approximately
a
little
more
than
10
million
in
the
fund
currently
and
it's
efficient
at
what
what
we're
asking
for
it
will
be
a
a
different
strategy
to
come
and
build
the
facility
when,
when
that's
appropriate,
okay
and
then
there's
a
there,
are
other
properties
that
make
up
that
entire.
D
D
D
B
A
A
A
All
right
I'll
take
that
as
a
second
councilmember
Davis.
Let's
vote
Jimenez,
yes,
Morales,
yes,
Cohen
hi,
Roscoe,
aye
Davis!
Yes,
as
far
as
I
texted,
yes,
arenas,
yes,
holy
I,
Mayhem,
hi,
Jones,
hi,
Ricardo,
all
right!
Thank
you!
Okay!
I
think
we
did
it
all
right
here
we
go.
Let's
go
on!
Then
thanks,
everybody!
Let's
go
on
to
open
forum.
A
All
right,
blue
Beekman
here.
A
B
L
Revision,
zero
issues
and
the
concepts
of
not
just
technology
questions
around
our
schools,
but
how
open
public
policies
can
can
really
help
the
process
around
the
schools
to
to
explain
to
young
kids
what
what
a
real,
comprehensive
future
of
neighborhood
safety
can
be
about
and
explaining
those
sort
of
efforts
to
school,
kids,
I
think
can
get
them
excited
and
hopeful
and
about
the
future.
L
So
I'm,
looking
forward
to
the
meeting
tomorrow
and
I
I
I,
don't
quite
know
what
else
to
say
at
this
time:
I'm
still
hoping
for
the
concepts
of
Peace
negotiation
and
not
more
loud
car.
Sorry
in
the
Ukraine
area.
If,
if
we're
going
to
be
doing
the
same
things,
if
we're
going
to
be
negotiating
in
the
same
terms
in
two
years
time,
what
I
hope
we
can
just
do
start
those
practices
now
and
I'd.
Much
prefer
to
do
that.
L
If
we
can
see
into
the
future
two
years
from
now
and
know
how
this
war
is
going
to
turn
out,
why
don't
we
start
practicing
the
concepts
of
negotiation
now
and
I
also
had
a
few
other
comments
to
say
that
I
guess
I
will
say
for
tomorrow.
At
rules
in
open
government
and
overall,
thank
you
for
the
meeting.
L
Good
luck,
how
we
work
on
our
issues
now
and
we
move
forward
into
the
Future
Past
November
election
time
and
it's
a
learning
process
for
all
of
us
and
just
thanks
to
everybody's
good
work
over
the
years.
Thanks
a
lot.
Thank
you!
Blair
back
to
council.
Okay,
everybody
today
is
the
opening
day
for
the
NBA
season,
so
go
dubs.
Everybody
have
a
wonderful
evening.
News
adjourned.

I

the
meeting
would
go
longer.
So
there
is
dinner
in
the
back.
