D
D
So
that's
the
way
we
have
it
set
up,
because
we
figured
that
nobody
knows
kind
of
the
park
that
a
business
would
potentially
want
to
put
their
their
operations
in
better
than
that
business
owner,
but
certainly
we're
more
than
happy
to
work
with
the
council
office.
If
you
have
to
help
pair
up
kind
of
the
correct
businesses
with
the
correct
parks.
D
D
Yes,
it
is
at
this
point
we
can
work
with
the
council
offices
if
that's
something
that
council
offices
are
interested
in,
we
can
work
with
you
to
let
you
know
which
parks
in
your
districts
are
being
requested
for
activation
or
are
approved
for
application
to
enhance
that
outreach.
That's
certainly
possible.
E
Yeah,
I
think
that
would
be
helpful
and
by
the
way,
not
you
know
so
one
I
think
you
know.
I
think
we
can
certainly
hear
from
people
who
are
like
what
I
didn't
know.
The
city
was
going
to
do
that,
but
then
we'll
also
hear
from
people
saying
cool
there's.
My
neighborhood
business
is
going
to
come
over
here
and
I
can
just
come
here
right,
so
I
mean
we'll
get
both
sides
of
it,
and
I
think
you
know
one.
E
We
should
be
notifying
people
that
may
have
concerns
about
losing
a
portion
of
their
park,
but
I
think
we
will
equally
be
notifying
people
that
they
can
come
to
their
neighborhood
park
and
activate.
You
know
a
portion
of
their
park
and
support
of
you
know
their
local
commerce
right,
and
so
I
think
it
can
also
be
a
positive
thing
and
and
that's
it
short
and
sweet.
Thank
you.
F
F
B
Thank
you,
vladie
thanks
for
moving
this
forward.
I
I
have
a
question
that
I
hope
is
not
taken
in
the
wrong
way,
because
I
know
there's
nobody
better
than
you
to
drive
an
initiative
like
this
one,
particularly
given
all
the
experience.
You've
had
the
downtown
association,
but
it
seems
as
though
that
other
cities
are
getting
more
traction
in
getting
businesses
outside
on
the
sidewalks
in
the
streets,
and
I
I
see
that
visually
in
some
other
suburban
towns
of
ours.
I
read
that
new
york
has
6
000
restaurants
outside
now.
D
You
know,
I
think,
mayor,
that's
that's
a
really
good
question.
I
think
one
of
the
things
is
that
we
have
been
really
focused
on
getting
this
policy
work
kind
of
done
and
out
I
mean
we've
been
here
on
a
regular
cadence
over
the
last.
You
know
two
and
a
half
months
very
frequently,
and
so
it's
taken
a
large
lift
to
get
the
policy
work.
D
I
I
think,
admittedly,
the
we
have
gotten
the
words
out,
but
we
can
probably
do
more
and
we
certainly
can
partner
up
even
closer
with
the
council
offices
as
councilmember
davis
and
council
members
by
esparza
both
mentioned,
you
know,
doing
outreach
on
their
their
own.
So
you
know,
one
of
the
things
we
are
working
on
right
now
is
another
host
of
communications
tools
that
we're
going
to
be
pushing
out
later
on
this
afternoon
later,
on
this
week
to
the
council
offices,
we
we're
revamping
the
alfresco
website.
D
We
now
have
the
peon,
p,
r,
p,
r
and
s
place,
making
team
that
physically
has
you
know,
bodies
that
are
kind
of
out
and
about
in
the
community.
So
I
think
that
you
know
now
that
we're
winding
down
the
policy
work
we'll
be
able
to
focus
even
more
on
the
communications
tools,
tactics,
strategies
to
ensure
that
folks
are
both
participating
and
then
also.
D
I
do
think
that
we
have
a
significant
number
of
businesses
that
are
participating,
but
they're
not
actually
registered,
and
I
and
I
also
think
kind
of
the
large
land
mass
that
is
san
jose.
We
don't
have
kind
of
one
or
two
main
streets.
We
have
a
variety
of
different
neighborhoods
and
in
a
large
expanse
of
land.
I
think
that
also,
then
doesn't
give
you
kind
of
the
concentration
effect
in
many
places.
B
I,
and
so
I
appreciate
that
it
would
just
be
helpful
to
know
if
there
are
obstacles
that
the
council
can
get
out
of
the
way
or
you
need
us
to
roll
up
our
sleeves
more
on
the
communication
end
or
it
would
just
be
helpful
to
know
what
could
really
move
the
needle.
You
know.
I've
heard
some
suggestions.
Anecdotally,
and
I
don't
know
you
know,
I'm
not
deep
enough
in
the
weeds
to
understand.
B
D
F
D
I
mean
part
of
the
reason
why
we
structured
both
the
parklet
and
the
street
closure
kind
of
permits.
The
way
they
are
in
the
city
providing
the
barrier
is
because
that
could
then
reduce
the
the
review
time
it
kind
of
takes
all
the
guesswork
out
like
these
barriers
are
approved
for
dot
per
pv
kind
of
per
everybody,
and
the
city
will
go
ahead
and
install
them,
and
then
you
can
set
out
your
business
operations,
but
if
there
are
other
barriers
that
you're
hearing
about
you
know,
please
please
let
us
know
you
know
we
are.
D
We
are
trying
to
cluster
businesses,
especially
for
a
street
closure.
You
know
one
of
the
requirements
or
or
kind
of
you
know
very,
very
strong
criteria
is
that
there
be
the
majority
of
the
businesses
on
the
street,
want
the
closure
and
that
the
majority
of
the
businesses
on
the
street,
be.
You
know,
ground
floor
uses,
because
one
of
the
things
is
if
we
just
kind
of
randomly
start
closing
streets,
you
know
because
one
or
two
businesses
want
them.
Do
we
really
do
we
benefit?
D
You
know
what
about
the
majority
of
the
folks
that
maybe
didn't
want
them
right.
So
so
we
are
trying
to
be
mindful
of
everybody,
because
you
know
many
people
do
want
to
bring
their
business
operations
outdoors
and
then
other
people,
because
of
the
county
regulations,
and
because
of
all
of
the
hoops
that
they
do,
how
they
do
go
through
those
relationships.
It
becomes
becomes
difficult
or
potentially
prohibitive,
but
we're
open
to
any
obstacles
that
you
all
are
hearing
and
we'll
address
them
or
we'll
ask
for
help
in
addressing
them.
B
B
You
know
willy
nilly,
but
you
know,
closing
lanes,
on
the
other
hand,
may
be
something
that's
much
more
easy
to
implement,
still
allows
folks
to
have
visibility
in
with
traffic
and
and
I'm
just
wondering
in
terms
of
the
resources
to
be
able
to
deploy
the
concrete
barriers
and
dot
staff
and
so
forth.
Is
that
really?
Is
that
realistic?
If
three
businesses
say
look
we'd
like
to
close
this
lane?
D
So
so
mayor,
yes,
it
certainly
can
and-
and
we
are
using
some
of
our
resources
and
then
you
know,
thankfully,
we
have
a
budget
allocation
where
we're
able
to
procure
equipment
from
outside
sources.
So
so
that
hasn't
been
a
problem
and
our
dot
staff
has
been
really
great
about
focusing
the
needs
as
they've
come
in.
One
of
the
things
that
we
are
trying
to
do
is
ensure
that
when
we
close
lanes
or
close
streets,
we
are
maximizing
the
benefit,
and
so
I
don't.
D
Okay,
okay,
good
because
I
I
feel
like
I
have.
I
think
I
have
a
pretty
good
grasp
on
the
requests
that
we
have
out
there
for
either
street
closures
like
substantial
street
closures
and
or
parklets,
and
we're
trying
to
work
through
each
one
of
these
and
and
part
of
the.
The
really
great
thing
is
that
we
have
done
so
much
work
with
alfresco
that
there
are
a
lot
of
options.
There
are
sidewalks,
there's
streets,
there's
parking
spaces,
and
so
it's
definitely
not
a
one.
B
G
H
I
J
J
So
you
got
to
really
remember
that,
like
you
have
to
remember
about
climate
change,
being
you
know,
fossil
fuel
use
has
to
be
the
criteria
for
all
of
our
decisions,
and
actually
I
I
am
commenting
on
that
fresco
thing,
because
I
find
it
disgusting
that
you
guys
are
all
about
business
and
let's
see
what
this
thing
is
about,
what
is
it
the
temporary?
Oh,
the
arts?
Oh
well,
that's
another
whole
problem,
so
I'll
spend
30
seconds
on
this,
but
you
know
to
spend
all
of
our
time
and
resources
on
businesses.
J
That
is
not
the
job
of
government.
The
job
of
government
is
protect
us
from
harm,
and
you
are
not
doing
that.
You
are
not
doing
that.
You're,
protecting
businesses
you're
using
money,
all
of
our
money
and
resources,
and
giving
like
2.5
million
dollars
to
businesses
and
all
the
energy
bringing
blockades
in
and
bringing
this
in.
You
know
everything
for
business
that
is
not
the
job
of
government.
It's
protect
us
from
army
you're,
doing
a
terrible
job
of
that
you're.
J
Supposed
to
you
know
I
can
do
you
think
I
can
get
a
safe
street
in
my
neighborhood
and
then
on
top
of
it
when
we're
eating
outside
people
in
wheelchairs
and
people
who
are
walking
are
having
to
be
exposed
to
the
kobe
19
of
because
businesses
are
making
money
and
that's
what
you're
all
about
so
now
getting
back
so
that
has
to
stop.
It
has
to
be
about
the
people
and
taking
care
of
the
people
and
preparing
us
for
climate
emergency.
And,
yes,
it
is
1700s
because
that's
the
era
of
out
without
fossil
fuels.
J
That's
what
we
need
to
go
back
to.
Yes,
it's
the
science,
okay
and
people
can
deny
it
so
getting
to
the
arts.
I'm
disgusted
with
what
happened
on
my
on
my
wall
in
my
neighborhood,
where
I
get
an
advertisement
for
the
sharks
because
of
dev
davis
and
and
the
the
the
issues
of
our
building
that
we
have
no
controls.
We
have
no
control.
So
I
get
an
advertisement
a
seven-story
advertisement
for
the
sharks,
which
is
violent
and
gross,
and
there's
no
evaluation
of
that.
And
that
is
disgusting
and
we
need.
J
B
K
K
I'd
like
to
point
out
that
there
are
seven
emails
from
other
commissioners
from
very
commission
various
commissions.
In
support
of
this
extension,
I
hope
the
council
will
vote
to
approve
this
temporary
extension.
I
look
forward
to
having
the
opportunity
to
serve
alongside
the
newly
appointed
arts
commissioners
through
the
end
of
this
year.
I
thank
you
for
your
time
and
I
thank
you
for
your
service
to
our
city.
That
is
all.
L
H
A
H
On
the
street-
and
you
know
what
you
know
with
with
guidelines
and
rules
is
great
for
years
and
years-
you
guys
have
fought
it
over
weird
alcohol
laws.
You
know
puritanical
weird,
I
don't
know
what,
but
it's
great
that
you
guys
are
doing
that
and
keep
up
the
good
work.
We
need
to
be
able
to
support.
What's
left
of
the
downtown,
I
mean
it's
terrible
with
the
way
it
looks
and
there
needs
to
be
business.
It
needs
to
be
money.
H
They
you
need
to
be
able
to
generate
tax
revenue
to
pay
for
all
these
things,
that
you
need
to
buy
everybody
like
wipes
and
diapers
and
everything,
and
where
do
you
think
this
money
comes
from
tax
dollars?
You
know
we're
not
generating
any
taxes,
if,
if
we
don't,
if
we
don't
help
or
if
you
guys
aren't
able
to
stimulate
business
in
downtown,
I
just
want
to
you
know.
I
don't
have
many
good
things
to
say
about
the
city,
council
or
anybody
else
who
works
down
there.
H
A
A
It's
new
to
me
how
that
can
take
place
and
all
the
different
facets
of
what
is
community
life
and
using
corporations.
Vietnamese
corporations,
media
corporations
of
the
area
you
know,
as
as
places
to
for
you
know,
government
ideas
to
be
heard
is
an
interesting
concept.
I
mean
that
is
the
use.
That
is
what
our
founding
fathers
wanted
to
use,
newspapers
and
media.
For
now
we
have,
we
do
have
a
system
of
conglomerates
of
corporate
conglomerates,
but
it
is,
it
is
an
interesting
use,
and
you
know
it
is
it's.
A
M
E
N
N
N
That's
coming
into
district
five
or
council
member
camis
wants
to
mentor
the
new
council
member,
that's
coming
into
district
10,
and-
and
you
know
we
appreciate
everybody's
experience,
but
but
our
new
commissioners
have
been
appointed
and
they
were
confirmed
a
few
weeks
ago
and
I'm
not
exactly
sure.
I
understand
why
we're
extending
the
the
the
term
and
setting
up
a
precedence
that
I
think
can
take
us
down
a
rabbit
hole
as
we
look
at
the
the
makeup
of
the
different
commissions
and
and
and
the
scope
of
the
different
commissions.
N
I
can
see
how
this
could
take
us
down
the
rabbit
hole
with
the
planning
commission,
the
neighborhoods
commission.
I
mean
it
can
go
on
and
on
and
on
and-
and
I
would
hate
to
to
do-
that-
I
would
also
hate
to
undermine
the
the
other,
the
new
commissioners
and
and
then
have
over
representation
in
some
districts
versus
other
districts.
N
I
G
The
documents-
and
they
seem
to
make
sense
to
me-
I
think
they
stem
from
correct
me.
If
I'm
wrong,
I
think
there
might
have
been
a
memo
from
council
member
davis
or
canvas,
so
I'd
certainly
open
it
up
for
them
to
to
share
their
perspective.
But
what
I
read
and
as
it
relates
to
the
items
that
were
provided
to
us,
seem
to
make
sense
to
me,
but
I
I'd
certainly
allow
them
to.
Please
share
the
reasoning
behind
all
this.
F
Yes,
thank
you
and
thank
you
councilmember
jimenez.
For
those
that
comment
yeah,
the
intent
was
not
to
to
undermine
the
the
new
members
at
all.
Other
commissions
did
have
their
terms
extended,
including
the
neighborhood
commission,
under
these
extraordinary
circumstances,
very
much
related
to
covet
and
the
fact
that
commissions
did
not
meet
for
many
months
in
the
spring
of
this
year
and
as
you
as
you
know,
I
know
you're
the
the
liaison
council
member
crosscode
to
the
arts
commission.
F
F
I
thought
that
was
a
very
good
idea
and,
and
it's
it's
definitely
not
to
undermine
the
new
members,
and
it
is
term
limited
it's
only
for
for
a
few
months
to
to
the
end
of
december,
which
is
also
the
same
time
that
the
other
commission's
terms
were
extended.
I
believe
so
that
was
that
was
the
purpose
the
arts
commission
had
was
just
not
treated
in
the
same
in
the
same
way
as
the
other
commissions
were,
and
that
was
the
intent
here.
N
Yeah,
if
I
could
just
I
I
so
again,
I
I'm
still
I'm
still
unable
to
support
the
the
current
motion
as
it
stands.
You
know
some
some
districts
will
have
over
representation,
whereas
others
will
not
have
you
know
some
will
have
double
representation,
others
won't
and
and
again
I
think
that
we
need
to
give
an
opportunity
for
those
new
commissioners
to
come
in
and
and
start
their
work.
They're
excited
that's
what
they
applied
for.
N
We
went
ahead
and
appointed
them
and
and
they're
just
as
excited
as
as
every
other
commissioner
and
and
and
I'm
glad
that
council
member
you
had
an
opportunity
to
have
a
relationship
with
your
council
member,
but
that's
not
typical.
It's
not
typical
that
we
have
a
relationship
with
the
outgoing
council
member
and
they
hand
over
any
paperwork
or
they
mentor
us
or
what
have
you?
N
P
I'm
not
one
of
those
districts,
that's
going
to
be
impacted
and
is
going
to
have
two
commissioners
I
mean
you
know
more
is
more
sometimes
better
right,
but
when
somebody
is
settling
into
a
position,
I
don't
know,
I
don't
know.
If
one
vote
is
going
to
steer
the
other
or
they're
going
to
get
a
cons.
You
know
they
should
maybe
get
a
consolidated
vote.
I
would
encourage
this
mentorship
relationship
to
take
form
outside
of
a
commission.
P
I,
I
think
it's
wonderful.
When
people
mentor
others,
I've
been
mentored
myself
and
I
I've
relied
on
that
type
of
relationship
and
but
but
certainly
not
as
a
council
member,
the
council
member
who
exited
the
office.
I
I
didn't
also
have
a
a
wonderful
experience,
but
it
doesn't.
You
know
everybody
has
a
different
kind
of
experience.
I'm
really
happy
that
you
got
to
experience
something
different,
councilmember
davis.
P
P
We
have
a
problem
here
with
over-representation
and
I
believe
that
the
new
commissioners
just
need
to
settle
into
their
roles
and
and
and
build
their
relationship
with
those
commissioners
who
are
outgoing
and
receive
their
mentorship.
That
way,
and
so
I
also
won't
be
supporting
the
motion
on
the
floor,
I
don't
it
doesn't
make
sense
to
me
and
I'm
not
sure
why
we
are
extending
the
the
commission
term
another
six
months.
It
just
doesn't
make
sense.
E
H
E
Okay
and
then
so
I
had
a
follow-up
question,
which
is
so
the
commissioners
that
have
their
terms
extended.
Will
they
have
a
vote
so,
for
example,
on
the
arts
commission
they
do
have.
You
know
some
responsibilities
about
resources
in
the
city?
Will
their
votes
carry
on
or
will
they
just
stay
on
and
be
able
to
to
participate
in
the
in
the
process?.
C
Our
original
suggestion
was
that
they
could
attend
as
members
of
the
public
and
they
would
be
able
to
give
feedback
but
not
vote,
but
this
this
will
bring
it
back
where
they
would
be
voting
members
and
the
the
ones
that
had
extensions
was
the
early
child
care
seats
for
library,
education,
commission,
one
seat
for
historic
landmarks.
Commission,
the
entire
neighborhoods
commission,
for
the
caucus.
Reason
that
I
told
you
and
that
is
it.
G
G
B
M
M
M
So
again,
I
certainly
have
a
great
respect
for
everyone
on
council
and
understand,
and
I
did
try
to
reach
out
to
councilmember
muriata
several
times
so
I
did
not
know
he
didn't
want
to
stay
on.
However,
I
would
point
out
that
commissioner
albert
lee
does
wish
to
continue
and
stay
on
and
he
recognizes
the
value
of
institutional
memory.
So
thank
you
for
asking.
G
E
Sure
yeah
I
mean
I
look
I
I
I
you
know.
I
have
a
commissioner
who
is
also
terming
out
and
I
have
a
commissioner
that's
terming
on
so
I
feel
kind
of
caught
in
the
middle
of
this.
Although
the
district
7
commissioner
felt
that
his
term
was
completed
and
he
he
was
fine
with
that,
he
felt
it
was
appropriate
for
the
new
commissioner
to
be
able
who
is
actually
very
experienced
to
be
able
to
to
to
take
on
her
term
as
a
commissioner.
E
So
he
was
fine
with
that,
but
I'm
you
know
I've
had
someone
coming
off
with
someone
coming
on
and
so
so
yeah.
So
I
I
feel
that
you
know
I
sense
a
lot
of
passion
there
and
it's
it's
great,
but
you
know
we
have
institutional
memory
on
the
commission
from
the
other
commissioners
right
I
mean
that's
how
the
system
is
set
up.
G
I'm
fine
with
that,
but
I
I
and
so
I'm
cool
with
the
with
the
amendment,
but
let
me
just
say
I
also
don't
necessarily
see
any
detrimental
impact
of
them.
Staying
on
boating,
I
mean,
I
really
don't
know,
what's
going
to
come
before
them
or
what
they're
going
to
be
considering,
but
but
I
think
that's
a
fair
compromise,
and
so
I'm
willing
to
take
that
moment.
G
E
E
To
allow
the
current
commissioners
to
be
able
to
stay
on
through
december
31st
and
participate,
but
not
have
a
vote
so
that
they
can
participate,
bring
their
experience
to
it,
but
the
new
commissioners
would
have
the
votes
moving
forward.
I
think
it
fulfills
the
spirit
of
what
what
everybody's
trying
to
do.
J
N
N
C
N
N
N
N
Oh,
how
do
you
I
don't
know
how
you
do
that,
but
anyway,
I'm
very
fast?
Okay:
where
is
she
oh
there?
She
is,
I
see
her
name
and
carrie
carrie.
If
you
could
help
us
out,
because
you
you
go
there,
you
are,
if,
if
you
could
help
us
out
a
little
bit
in
deciphering
a
little
bit
more
of
the
technicalities
on
the
roles
of
the
commissioners,
we're
talking
about
a
lot
of
money
that
goes
through.
N
N
Q
Q
N
And
so
well,
thank
you
for
that,
and,
and
so
as
as
we
have
individuals
who
have
had
this
experience
terming
out
and
I'm
very
grateful
for
all
the
work
that
they're
doing.
Of
course,
I'm
sure
that
you've
been
hearing
the
the
discussion
take
place
over
the
last
couple
of
weeks.
Probably
a
couple
of
months,
and
and
now
the
conversation
that's
taking
place,
some
of
the
concern
that
we
have
is
well
now.
The
motion
is
that
they'll
be
non-voting,
but
over
representation,
but
do
we
do?
N
Q
Actually,
it
has
happened
in
the
past
so
but
under
slightly
different
circumstances,
it's
informal,
but
when
we
have
effective
chair
often
the
chair
will
encourage
some
of
the
old,
the
more
experienced
commissioners
to
mentor
the
incoming
commissioners
just
to
kind
of
give
them
somebody
to
speak
to
somebody
that
they
can
provide
advice
or
guidance
around,
because
you
know
like,
as
you
all
know,
we
work
within
city
government
and
often
things
happen
on
an
annual
cycle.
So
we
do
try
to
encourage
mentorship
amongst
commissioners.
Q
Q
But
I
will
also
say
that
you
know
our
recommendation
from
the
office
of
cultural
affairs
is
that
we
allow.
You
know
we
would
have
11
commissioners,
which
is
our
our
normal
tradition
per
per
city
ordinance.
But
in
addition
to
that,
we
would
welcome
back.
You
know
the
the
termed
out
commissioners
to
participate
as
members
of
the
public,
and
so
that
would
effectively
be
the
same
thing.
Q
That
is
the
amended
motion
right
now
that
you
would
have
11
seats
and
that
anybody
could
could
participate
in
a
meeting
on
any
item
as
a
member
of
the
public.
So
that
would
be
our
recommendation
and
I
worked,
and
I
worked
with
the
clerk's
office
and
the
city
attorney's
office,
to
really
understand
kind
of
how
you
know
what
is
the
ordinance
and
you
know
what
is
the
representation
and
that
we
would
not
want
to
have
a
disrepresentation
amongst
certain
council
districts.
Q
N
O
Yeah
mayor,
so
I
I'm
I'm
really
sorry
that
this
has
to
get
to
this.
For
me,
it's
about
a
fairness
issue.
There
is
precedent,
both
pat
both
in
the
past
and
in
the
current
commission
status,
and
it
doesn't
really
matter
what
the
different
circumstances
are.
There's
been
numerous
circumstances
where
commissioners
commissioners
were
extended
in
their
term,
and
this
is
no
different.
O
This
the
reason
why
we're
extending
their
term
is
because
of
covet
and
no
other
reason,
the
these
commissioners,
you
know-
should
be
instated
as
a
full
voting
members,
and
not
only
that
you
know
it
was
our
fault.
It
was
not
their
fault
that
we
did.
The
order
on
the
agenda
incorrectly
and
and
and
the
fact
of
the
matter
is
we
were
supposed
to
vote
on
their
extension
before
we
voted
on
the
new
commissioners
to
be
implemented.
O
So
so
so
not
only
is
this
that
they
get
hit
with
the
covet
issue,
then
they
get
hit
with
our.
You
know
not
not
doing
our
job
correctly
on
the
calendar
and
so
on
the
on
the
agenda,
and
so
I
think
it's
really
unfair.
I
don't
even
know
if
these
commissioners
will
serve
as
non-voting
commissioners
to
begin
with
and
as
far
as
over-representation.
O
These
are
commissions,
the
final
decisions
are
coming
to
us,
not
not
they're,
not
going
to
a
foreign
body
and
they're,
not
making
you
know
the
final
decisions
will
be
made
by
us
and
and
city
council,
and-
and
I
just
I
just
I'm
not
going
to
be
supporting
the
motion.
Even
though
I
wrote
the
memo
because
they're
not
they're
not
going
to
be
voting
members,
maybe
I
can
ask
ramona
or
anybody
else
that
that
is
getting
their
their
commission
roma
or
the
two
they're
on
the
line.
O
O
K
Hi
yeah,
I
mean
the
whole
point
of
this-
was
that
we
didn't
get
the
last
few
months
of
our
term
and
we
started
this
process
way
before
any
new
appointments
were
made
to
the
arts.
Commission
I
mean
we
went,
we
had
a
memo
from
the
mayor,
we
went
to
rules
and
then
it
was
going
to
council
and
up
until,
like
just
a
few
days
before
that
meeting,
there
was
still
nobody
appointed
to
our
seats.
K
Even
at
the
rules
meeting
on
june
19th
tony
tabor
said
that
they
did
not
have
anybody
slotted
yet,
and
they
would
probably
not
have
anybody
slotted
to
at
least
august
and
have
all
their
paperwork
in
and
whatnot.
So
our
memo
should
have
been
voted
on
and
new
appointments
suddenly
appeared
on
the
june
30th
agenda
and
we
were
pulled
off
the
original
memo
for
extension,
which
I
don't
even
think
is
legal,
that
you
can
pull
names
off
a
memo
that
was
put
out
to
the
public.
K
B
M
M
O
Yeah,
no,
I
I
just
won't
be
supporting
the
motion.
I
think
that
you
know,
in
all
fairness,
this
is
only
actually
really
only
until
december,
and
this
is
maybe
four
months
or
or
less
as
far
as
meetings
are
concerned,
and
I
don't
see
any
harm
and
over
yeah.
I
think
we
just
need
to
right
the
wrong
here
and
that's
the
whole
point.
O
L
Thank
you.
I
really
didn't
expect
this
to
be
such
a
controversial
issue.
I
think
it's
really
quite
impressive,
actually
that
we
have
three
four
people
who
want
to
continue
on
in
their
commitment
in
the
arts.
Commission
council
member
esparza
gave
a
wonderful
invocation
earlier
today
about
the
importance
of
art
and
how
art
is
keeping
us
together
and
challenging
us
and
inspiring
us,
and
we
we
need
to
make
sure
that
we
still
have
that
inspiration
throughout
the
city
as
it
relates
to
the
arts.
L
The
arts
community
is
suffering
dramatically
under
covid
and
there
is
there's
nothing
normal
about.
Maybe
this
commission
appointment,
this
extended
commission
appointment,
there's
nothing
normal
about
covid,
so
the
rules
are
all
kind
of
changing
and
we're
sort
of
moving
and
modifying
as
we
move
along.
L
In
the
terms
of
basketball,
it's
no
harm,
no
foul.
I
really
don't
see
the
over-representation,
although
two
of
the
ca
of
the
commissioners
will
be
from
district
nine,
but
I
can
point
to
many
places
such
as
the
planning
commission,
where
we
haven't
had
district
nine
representation
for
years.
So
I
and
and
then
I
look
at
the
length
of
term
that
we're
talking
about
we're,
looking
we're
we're
pointing
them
if
it
passes
today
we're
appointing
them
in
october
or
august.
Sorry,
carrie
do
they
have
a
meeting
in
august.
Q
Q
L
Sure-
and
I
can't
begin
to
think
what
holidays
are
going
to
look
like
right
now,
it's
just
too
it's
too
frightening
to
even
think
about
where
we
are
today
with
school
starting
tomorrow.
But
so,
if
you
boil
it
down
it's
only
four
months,
if
they
excluding
december
that
they
would
have
involvement
and
interaction
on
the
arts.
Commission,
I
think
more,
the
more
the
merrier
on
this
particular
commission,
because
the
arts
have
taken
a
beating
and
are
not
going
to
thrive
in
a
long
long
time.
L
F
Thank
you
mayor.
I
just
want
to
make
a
a
clarification
council
member
jimenez.
The
way
that
I
understood
the
amendment
when
I
accepted
it
was
not
that
they
would
be
members
of
the
public,
but
that
they
would
be
in
effect
ex-officio
members
of
the
board
so
that
they
would
be
able
to
fully
participate
in
the
discussion
they
wouldn't
be
limited,
like
the
public
is
to
two
minutes
for
their
for
their
comments
and,
and
so
the
way
that
I
was
thinking
about.
F
That
was
that
that
was
a
good
compromise
to
to
address
council,
member
esparza
and
carrasco's
concerns
and
that
that
would
still
allow
the
the
members
it
sounds
like
three
out
of
the
four
to
to
still
provide
their
institutional
knowledge
and
and
their
passion
for
the
arts
as
members
of
the
board.
Just
not
voting
members
of
the
board
is
that
the
way
you
understood
that
amendment
council,
member
jimenez.
F
F
Yeah
great,
thank
you
councilmember
esparza.
I
I
appreciate
that.
Thank
you.
I
I
think
I
I
too
would
would
have
preferred
that
they
would
have
been
able
to
have
a
vote,
but
I
I'm
sensitive
to
the
fact
that
this
is.
You
know
it
was
a
concern
of
my
colleagues
that
there
would
be
a
dilution
of
votes
as
a
result
of
this
temporary
measure.
So
that's
why
I
accepted
the
the
amendment
as
the
seconder
and
that's
why
I'll
be
supporting
the
motion.
Thank
you.
E
Yeah,
I
I
just
wanted
to
you
know
thank
everybody
or
most
of
us
for
supporting
a
compromise
where
we
do
have
a
few
folks
who
are
very
passionate
about
being
able
to
to
bring
their
experiences
and
see
some
projects
through
is
what
I'm
kind
of
hearing
between
the
lines,
which
is
you
know
we
all
kind
of
have
that,
but
still
respect
the
new
commissioners
coming
in.
I
you
know,
and
I
you
know,
roma.
E
I
really
appreciate,
because
you
have
contacted
myself
and
I'm
sure
other
counci
members
a
few
months
ago,
and
I
appreciate
the
the
spirit
in
which
you
conveyed
your
concerns.
I
I
just
want
to.
There
were
some
other
comments
made.
I
just
wanted
to
clarify.
You
know
we
re.
We
as
a
city
need
to
respect
every
nominee,
everyone
that
gets
a
point
or
every
appointee
that
gets
appointed
to
that
commission.
E
They
bring
their
experiences
and
their
perspectives
to
that
commission
whether
they
have
served
on
another
commission
or
not.
I
am
very
fortunate
and
that
the
folks
representing
district
7
are
very
experienced
themselves,
and
so
I
look
forward
to
the
work
of
the
commission
and
seeing
these
projects
through
and
in
future
post-covered

Thank
you.

It
seems
to
me
we
have
arts
commissioners
who
legitimately
want
to
serve
genuinely
even
committed
to
the
community,
have
done
a
great
job
and
really
been
deprived
of
the
ability
to
serve
their
full
terms
by
circumstances
beyond
everyone's
control.
So
it
seemed
to
me
I
would
have
been
happy
to
support
either
of
these
motions.
I
simply
think
we
should
move
forward
all
right.
Tony.

This
is
nora,
I'm
sorry
to
interrupt
you
now,
but
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
that
this
clarification
is
made
in
this
motion
and
on
this
vote.
Council
policy
0-4
doesn't
allow
non-voting
members
on
commissions,
but
an
ordinance
can
override
that
policy.
So
you
need
to
just
be
clear
in
this
motion
that
in
fact
that's
the
intent
and
that
the
ordinance,
the
draft
ordinance
will
be
changed
to
make
sure
that
that's
clear.

Hi.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
item.
5.1
is
a
report
on
the
bids
and
award
a
contract
for
the
center
road
vision,
zero
safety
improvements
project
focused
on
center
between
keys
and
singleton
road.
There
is
no
presentation
we'll
see
if
there
any
members
of
the
public
would
like
to
speak
on
this
item.
Item
5.1
regarding
division,
zero
improvements
on
center
road,
claire
beekman.
A
All
right,
thank
you.
You
hear
me
yes,
thank
you.
The
center
road
traffic
calming
project
has
been
in
the
making
in
the
days
before
previous
covet
19..
As
always,
I
hope
you'll
be
considering
what
could
be
good,
open
public
policies
and
continuing
accountability
for
technology
surveillance
and
data
collection.
That
will
be
part
of
this
large
traffic
and
pedestrian
improvement
project,
however,
is
my
feeling
that
measure
t
public
oversight
with
technology
may
be
confused
and
lacking
at
this
point,
and
that
is
part
of
the
funding
of
this
of
this
project.
A
J
Thank
you,
tessa,
woodman
c,
on
vision,
zero.
I
was
interested.
I
tried
to
search
the
memorandum
on
that
it
didn't
come
up,
maybe
it's
the
ipad
or
what
but
might
be
part
of
the
problem.
Things
don't
link
well,
but
basically,
you
know
it
was
a
two
million
dollar
project
it
looked
like
and
so
what
you
know
what
we
really
need
to
do
with
our
vision.
J
Zero
is
all
engineering
solutions,
so
I'm
very
happy
to
hear
that
you're
spending
a
lot
of
money
to
hopefully
improve
center
road,
which
is
quite
a
you
know,
highway
of
a
road.
It's
just
very
car.
You
know
friendly
and
terrible
in
that
way.
So
if
you
can
make
it
more
user-friendly
and
walkability
and
bicycle-friendly
that'd
be
great,
and
this
is
what
we
need
to
do
and
we
see
if
this
project
is
2
million,
how
the
the
way
we
allotted
the
vision.
Zero
was
very
questionable.
J
You
know
when
you
have
a
police
officer
on
our
council,
advocating
it's
for
enforcement,
and
you
could
say:
oh
there's
a
lot
of
the
police.
A
lot
of
the
council
approved
that,
because
we're
all
dealing
with
you
know
policing
as
being
a
way
that
we're
gonna
solve
things
and
what
you
know:
black
lives
matter
and
the
whole
police
review
which
we
put
on
deferment.
You
know
the
police
are
not
the
solution
of,
we
don't
need
policing.
We
need
engineered
solutions,
just
like
with
homelessness.
We
need
people
who
care
about
each
other.
J
That's
what
we
need,
not
policing,
and
so
you
know
same
thing
with
you
know,
vision,
zero.
We
need
engineering
solutions,
that's
the
way
we
create
vision,
zero
and
we
do
need
to
spend
the
money
not
on
you
know,
12
policemen
who
mostly
sit
in
in
our
you
know
lot
around
the
corner
all
night:
there's
no
accountability
for
the
police.
E
Which
is
a
horrible
statistics
and
district
seven
has
five
of
the
city's
priority
safety
corridors,
including
center
road.
So
this
project
will
give
our
residents,
especially
our
students
and
seniors,
a
safer
experience,
whether
they're,
walking
biking
or
driving.
So
I'm
very
excited
about
it.
I'm
also
happy
and
would
like
to
point
out
that
this
contract
will
be
going
to
a
local
company
and
a
company
also
in
district
7..
S
G
S
I
S
I
I
think
that
they
have
to
be
careful
not
to
overextend
themselves.
I
mean
we
can
bid
on
all
this
work,
but
the
fact
remains
that
we
have
to
build
it
too,
and
there
are
so
many
jobs
out
there
to
bid
that.
I
just
don't
think
we
got
the
quotes
on
it.
We
actually
did
put
all
items
of
work
out
there
for
the
dbes
to
to
bid
on,
and
we
just
did
not
get
quotes.
S
B
E
C
G
I
C
B
B
J
Oh,
you
did
so
good.
Thank
you,
mayor
ricardo,
for
asking
twice
at
least
thank
you,
okay,
tessa
woodman
c,
and
we're
talking
about
our
fiscal
year
2020
to
2021..
Well,
this
is
yeah.
Well,
I
have
been
unhappy
with
the
values
of
what
you've
been
supporting.
The
one
thing
I
mentioned
was
the
10
million
dollars
towards
getting
people
to
fly,
and
you
know
that
is
really
like.
J
I
say
along
the
lines
of
evil,
immoral,
selfish
and
greedy,
and
that's
why
we
have
been
saying
we
have
to
get
the
scientists
to
run
our
make
help
us
with
our
decision
making.
We
have
to
look
through
those
thick
glasses
that
they
wear
near-sighted
or
far-sighted
and
and
put
ourselves
behind
those.
So
we
can
start
looking
at
our
fossil
fuel
use,
which
is
so
critical
and
every
one
of
our
decisions.
J
I'm
saying
is
that
we
need
to
reduce
our
overhead
really
look
at
all
the
expenses,
the
flying,
the
driving
the
the
parties
that
this
I
mean.
You
know
if
you
can't
afford
to
live
on
what
our
residents
provide
and
that
you
have
to
sell
our
our
financialize,
our
lands.
That
has
to
make
money
for
you.
We
have
to
really
look
at
that
and
there's
really
a
problem
with
that,
and
that
is
the
whole,
like.
I
said
with
a
look
through
the
glasses,
those
myopic
glasses
of
fossil
fuel
use
in
all
of
our
decisions.
B
P
Thank
you.
Yes,
I
wanted
to
move
my
memo.
I
submitted
it
quite
late,
so
I'm
just
going
to
take
you
through
it
and
explain
a
bit
about
why
it
is
that
I
submitted
this
memo
and,
as
many
of
you
know,
I
was
a
school
board.
Some
of
you
were
as
well
and
during
that
time
I
saw
a
huge
exodus
of
our
children
from
our
school
district.
P
Sorry,
I'm
smiling
because
I've
seen
just
the
reason
why
we
work
so
hard
a
little
one,
who
is
always
a
gift
at
the
end
of
a
long
council
meeting.
So
thank
you,
and
so
so
I
just
want
to
move
my
my
memo.
It
includes
up
the
staff
report
and
recommendations.
It
also
asks
for
to
direct
the
city
manager
to
provide,
in
their
future
future
annual
action
plan
and
sub
plan.
That
demonstrates
how
these
federal
dollars
directly
serve.
P
Families
with
children
to
direct
the
city
manager
to
include
in
the
in
their
caper
performance
report
of
family
performance
supplement
report
on
how
many
families
the
children
were
able
to
access
for
federally
funded
services
and,
lastly,
to
direct
the
city,
man,
peak
recommendations
and
feedback
from
the
neighborhood
services
committee
on
the
future
use
of
any
unprogrammed
community
development
improvement
funds.
So
that
is
the
that
is
my
memo
and
the
the
reason
I
I
wanted
to
make
sure
that
this
was
in
place
is
that
our
housing
department
has
taken
stock.
P
B
Thank
you
just
a
quick
question
for
reagan
or
jackie.
We
know
we
put
a
premium
on
the
work
you
do,
but
an
awful
lot
of
your
time
is
spent
reporting,
and
so
I
just
want
to
understand
whether
there
will
be
significant
burdens
added
in
terms
of
reporting
here
or
not
from
whatever
is
from
what's
suggested.
Primarily,
I
think
in
paragraph
three,
but
I
guess
two
and
three.
C
So
we
thank
you
mayor
for
giving
us
the
opportunity,
I'm
jackie
morales
friend,
I'm
the
director
of
housing,
and
I
saw
this
as
an
opportunity
as
we
had
framed
families
in
our
memo,
and
we
had
a
sub
category
that
talked
about
how
we're
addressing
the
needs
of
families.
We
believe
we
can
continue
to
carry
that
both
in
the
council
memo
that
we
take
that
reports
on
our
performance
and
we've
told
you
who
we
what
programs
are
and
are
eligible
for
families.
C
It
is
already
reported,
and
so
we'll
just
pull
that
data
forward
and
again
as
long
as
we're
just
including
it
in
our
staff
report.
As
a
the
sub
plan
that
highlights
the
data
we
are
limited
in
our
hud
plans
on
what
we
can
submit,
we're
totally
comfortable
being
very
open
and
sunshining.
These
investments.
B
C
G
E
J
Woodmancy,
okay,
great,
this
is
just
a
wood
man
c
good.
We
made
it
to
the
end,
all
right
so
public
forum,
I
guess
now.
I
don't
even
know
what
I
want
to
say.
Okay,
let's
see
what
is
the
biggest
problem?
Well,
we
know
what
my
biggest
problem
is.
So
I
talked
about
it
all
all
session,
but,
like
my
husband
says,
I
know
every
time
I
open
my
mouth,
you
put
your
fingers
in
your
ears.
You
don't
want
to
hear
me,
and
so
this
is
where
we've
got
a
lot
of
problems.
J
You
know,
how
are
we
going
to
follow
the
science
and
we're
that's
why
extinction
rebellion
says
that
you
cannot
do
the
leadership,
because
you
are
involved
in
politics
and
economics.
That's
what
you're
all
about
we've
been
hearing
it
all
all!
Last
six
or
seven
hours,
every
meeting
is
about
it
and
then
even
the
meetings
that
are
you
know,
other
people
are
leaving.
J
Everything
is
about
it,
and
so
that's
why
greta
flinberg
says
when
you're
in
a
crisis,
all
you
talk
about
is
your
crisis
and
that's
what
we're
not
doing,
because
we're
in
four
crises
we're
in
a
climate
crisis.
We're
in
an
ecological
collapse,
we
are
losing
the
birds
and
the
insects.
Okay,
this
is
really
serious.
That's
the
foundation
of
the
food
chain,
and
then
we
are,
you
know:
what's
our
okay,
then
our
third
one?
I
call
it
two
peas,
which
is
pandemic
and
pollution,
and
those
are
major
public
health.
J
J
A
lot
of
strict
rules
from
from
governor
cuomo
and
governor
newsom
has
not
done
that,
and
that
is
why
it's
going
wild
in
in
california.
We
need
a
lot
of
controls,
they
have
cars,
stopping.
Where
are
you
going?
What
are
you
doing?
I
mean
that
we
don't
have
any
of
that
they're
all
coming
from
la
and
the
last
one
is
our
housing
crisis
and
we
need
to
focus
on
those
four
things.
A
A
I
feel
the
housing
issues
of
ashkara
and
how
he's
working
with
other
assembly
persons
across
the
bay
area
they're
trying
to
define
really
good
measures
for
you
know
they're
going
to
have
we're
going
to
have
emergency
one
emergency
status
until
april
2021.
At
this
point
they
want
to
do
tennis,
rights,
protections
and
tenant
forgiveness,
rent
forgiveness,
a
year
after
that-
and
I
I
think
that's
a
great
idea-
I
mean
I
feel,
try
to
be
open
to
10
years.
How
can
how
can
things
be
open
to
10
years?
A
A
You
know
help
this
copic
situation
and
I
just
wish
that
owners
would
not
feel
so
uptight
and
fearful
as
as
fearful
as
the
situation
is.
I
think
I
think
people
like
ash
khara
is
offering
a
great
remedy
for
the
situation
and
to
always
be
open
for
for
greater
remedies,
and
I
think
that's
vital
to
ourselves
right
now
and
if
we
take
care
of
housing,
food
and
health,
you
know
that's
that's
a
good
combination
that
we
can
all
trust
and
work
towards
and
feel
confident
to
work
towards
good
luck
on
those
efforts.
Thank
you.
H
I
hope,
by
the
way,
san
jose
tv
isn't
enforcing
that
if
they
try
to
enforce
it
on
me,
I'll
be
going
to
I'll
be
going
to
the
jail
if
they
don't
I'll
die
on.
But
that's
another
story:
yeah
just
keep
focusing
on
the
economy
and
trying
to
get
people
back
to
work,
and
so
you
know
we
can.
We
can
have
tax
dollars,
but
I
mean
I
heard
hours
and
hours
and
hours
how
you
guys
are
concerned
about
diapers
and
and
and
formula
and
wipes
to
wipe
off
a
kid's
ass.
