The
work
plan
is
new
for
this
fiscal
year
and
rosalind,
and
I
worked
to
make
sure
that
there
was
a
flow
of
our
work
items
that
made
sense
both
from
our
perspective
but
also
from
staffs,
so
that
we
were
getting
the
reports
that
we
needed
in
a
timely
manner,
but
that
we
also
weren't
overburdening
them
by
putting
too
many
reports
into
one
particular
meeting.
So
we've
spread
things
out
over
the
year.
B
You
could
take
a
look
at
that
and
if
you
have
any
comments,
I'm
willing
to
entertain
a
discussion
on
that
route
now
or
just
just
move
forward.
I
know
the
work
plan
was
adopted
at
rules
last
week.
So
two
of
you
or
one
of
you,
I
know
councilmember,
probably
you're
on
rules,
but
I
don't
think
we
had
any
major
objections
to
the
work
plan.
So
without
any
discussion,
let's,
let's
move
forward.
If
that's
that's
acceptable,
okay,
great,
we
don't
have
any
items
on
our
consent.
B
B
A
D
Committee
members,
elizabeth
handler
public
information
manager
for
the
office
of
economics,
development,
we're
bringing
you
the
september.
I
cannot
believe
it
monthly
report
and
newsletter
for
the
office
of
economic
development
for
the
city
of
san
jose
and
our
first.
Our
first
item
is
the
announcement
of
adding
the
cultural
affairs
to
the
name
of
oed,
so
we
are
now
oedca
because
there's
never
enough
enough.
D
One
thing
that
we
have
found
out
during
the
the
pandemic
and
then
the
recovery
period
is
the
degree
to
which
our
artists
are
creative
entrepreneurs.
They
are,
they
are
earning
money,
they
are
paying
payroll,
they're,
buying
supplies,
they're
a
vital
part
of
our
economy.
So
oedca
is
the
new
acronym
of
the
day.
D
Our
major
construction
projects
report
for
the
second
quarter
of
2021
is
out
now,
and
it
continues
to
be
pretty
rosy.
Considering
the
lag
in
the
construction
process
during
the
first
parts
of
the
of
the
pandemics,
the
total
shutdowns
were
happening,
we're
still
doing
we're.
Looking
at
some
excellent
openings
that
have
happened,
both
murals
people
are
moving
in.
I
don't
know
if
you've
been
in
the
business
city
hall
recently,
but
the
moving
trucks
over
there.
People
are
offloading
and
getting
into
their
new
apartments
there.
D
D
We
have
a
nice
little
guest
blog
post
from
our
downtown
association,
giving
us
an
update
on
what
parking
has
been
done
doing
since
they
have
navigated
to
the
recovery
and
the
good
news
is
they
steam
cleaned
all
the
garages?
Everything
is
spanking
clean,
there's,
no
more
bubble
gum
on
the
floor
and
the
there
are
our
new
touchless
stations,
and
now
the
validation
system
has
been
changed,
which
was
cumbersome
for
our
merchants
and
it's
now
390
minutes
of
parking,
which
is
much
easier
for
everybody.
So
those
are
all
good
news.
D
So
they
are
going
to
be
able
to
fulfill
the
applications
for
some
of
the
folks
who
are
wait,
listed
and
we're
telling
people
if
you
did
apply
and
you
never
heard
anything,
be
sure
to
check
your
spam
clutter
and
junk
mail.
Email
folders,
because
everybody
goes
by,
should
have
gotten
an
email
back
and
you
may
be
waitlisted.
So
if
you
waitlisted,
you
don't
have
to
reapply
and
also
they're
going
to
be
some
new
openings
for
other
kinds
of
grant.
Applications.
D
D
So
if
you're,
if
you
used
your
ppp
loan
to
pay
your
employees
and
keep
your
business
open
and
even
if
you
couldn't
open
just
to
train
them,
then
that
loan
is
forgivable
and
there's
now
an
automated
portal
to
sign
up
for
the
loan
forgiveness,
which
one
of
the
links
are
included
in
this.
So
that's
that's
good
news
too.
D
The
other
good
news
is
that
if
you
go
to
our
partner
visit
san
jose's
website,
which
is
san
jose.org
org,
there's
live
events
being
listed
again
now,
so
that's
exciting
to
see
those
coming
back.
Online
and
city
dance
has
come
back
and
we're
going
to
be.
Having
another
one,
the
first
friday
of
september,
the
third
friday
in
october,
so
I
hope
to
encourage
everyone
to
come
out
for
some
exciting.
B
I
kind
of
take
my
cue
from
whoever
I'm
around
if
they're
wearing
masks.
So
am
I
if
they're
not,
then
I'm
probably
not
so
really
just
kind
of
depends
on
the
the
group
I'm
with
but
with,
but
it
is
good
to
be
out
with
people
again
and
see
their
faces
and
make
contact
with
them.
So
before
I
go
to
the
committee,
I'm
going
to
go
to
the
members
of
the
public,
but
I
would
remind
the
members
of
the
public.
B
You
do
have
two
minutes,
but
please
stay
focused
on
the
topic
at
hand,
which
is
the
economic
development
activities
report.
We
will
have
an
opportunity
for
open
forum
that
occurs
at
the
end
of
the
meeting
and
you'll
have
two
minutes
to
talk
about
whatever
you
want
then,
but
please
stay
on
topic
with
the
activities
report.
F
This
really
is
a
tale
of
two
cities.
When
I
was
listening
to
the
the
the
enthusiasm
and
the
the
the
levity
with
respect
to
people
moving
into
the
building
that
is
posted
across
street
from
city
hall,
you
can
tell
there's
a
difference
of
perspectives
and
how
we
are
viewing
what
is
going
on
in
the
city.
You
see
her
enthusiasm
and
joy
with
respect
to
the
moving
trucks
being
there.
F
So,
while
I
can
appreciate
that
the
money
scott
nice
all
of
the
downtown
associations,
they
are
the
they're,
the
primary
beneficiaries
of
covey
the
deaths
that
happened
in
this
city,
every
single
person,
that's
sitting
in
front
of
those
restaurants
and
it's
sitting
and
just
eating
and
just
enjoying
their
time
right
there
in
the
middle
of
what
used
to
be
a
street.
The
only
thing
that
put
them
there
is
the
deaths
of
latinos.
On
the
east
side,
there
is
no
disconnect
between
those
two.
F
So
I
like,
I
said
the
way
that
we're
viewing
what
is
going
on
in
the
city.
What
I'm
experiencing
is
not
opinion.
These
are
facts,
the
connection
between
a
person
sitting
and
enjoying
themselves
and
the
small
businesses
being
glad
that
there's
people
eating
there
cannot
be
disconnected
from
what
happened
on
the
east
side.
They're
connected.
G
Right,
thank
you.
Happy
monday
boy
beekman
here,
thanks
for
the
report,
I'll
just
speak
on
to
the
rep
about
the
report
and
about
the
attachment
just
a
few
summaries.
Some
reminders
of
things
with
the
parking
lot
issues
parking
issues,
a
reminder
of
there
will
be
some
alpr
stuff
with
downtown
parking
issues
and
a
reminder
of
just
the
really
good
practices
that
were
developing
pre-covered
around
alpr
issues
and
data
collection,
data
collection.
They
were
holding
the
alpr
data
info
for
about
a
year
time
and
they
brought
it
down
to
six
months
90
days.
G
G
Wow
amazing
thought-
and
you
know
it
just
kind
of
helped
guide
what
made
the
process
easier
and
more
efficient
for
themselves
to
simply
trust,
good,
open
democratic
practices
and
ideals
and
civil
rights,
protections
and
civil
civil
liberty
protections.
I
guess
good
stuff,
you
know,
and
we've
been
talking
about
data
issues
right
now.
It
is
open
democratic
practices
that
are
incredibly
meaningful
and
give
ourselves
love
and
joy
and
positiveness,
it's
all
the
good
stuff
for
life,
and
it
was
helping
with
better
alpr
data
collection
practices.
G
I
hope
we
can
continue
those
good
efforts
at
this
time
and
a
reminder
with
20
seconds.
That
was
the
loan
issues.
You
know
it's
been
specifically
the
purpose
of
these
grant
and
loan
issues
at
this
time
that
it's
not
the
fault
of
everyday
people
and
community
of
these
covet
issues,
and
we
have
to
learn
that
kind
of
mind
frame
and
how
to
consider
that.
Thank
you.
H
Committee
is
money
that
is
going
to
economic
development
from
the
google,
the
google,
whatever
100
million
dollars,
whatever.
It
is
right
now
that
we're
dealing
with
and
that
three
million
dollars
is
going
to
economic
development,
the
department,
the
city's
department,
and
we
have
issues
in
our
community
in
my
neighborhood
I
need
three
million
dollars
to
buy
that
land
at
615
stockton
avenue.
So
we
do
not
get
a
hotel,
because
that
is
not
what
we
need.
We
need
to
be
dealing
with
food
security
and-
and
that
is
what
we're
talking
about.
We
need
nature.
H
Heals
then
nature,
heals.
We
have
people
in
distress,
we
have
the
amount
of
of
climate
refugees
that
are
going
to
be
pouring
into
our
city
is
unbelievable.
What's
happening
right
now,
those
fires,
the
dixie
fire
is
not
going
out,
is
what
the
science
says,
because
the
rains
aren't
even
coming
to
put
it
out.
So
these
are
the
problems
and
it
could
be
going
to
tahoe.
H
That's
where
it's
going
now
our
richest
place
and
that
you
know
like
they
say
it
could
have
happened
to
a
more
deserving
bunch,
because
those
are
the
people
that
are
causing
it's
all
the
driving
to
to
tahoe,
and
it's
all
the
changes
that
we're
made,
that
you
are
not
doing
in
our
city
and
you're,
giving
yourself
the
economic
development
money
from
google
that
was
for
mitigations
in
our
community,
that's
criminal,
and
then
it
doesn't
even
get
on
the
rules.
They
say
here
page
one
page
two,
they
don't
even
read.
What's
going
on
in
our
meetings.
B
First,
it's
elizabeth's
job
to
be
the
cheerleader
and
the
purpose
of
this
report
to
report
the
positive
outlook
on
the
city,
and
I
would
challenge
anyone
to
understand
that
the
small
businesses
around
san
jose
state
and
around
city
hall
are
happy
to
have
us
back
because
they
employ
local
residents
to
work
in
their
businesses
at
their
restaurants
and
when
they
were
closed,
they
were
not
employing
individuals
and
those
individuals
were
not
getting
a
paycheck.
Now
that
the
restaurants
are
open,
then
people
are
able
to
go
back
to
work,
and
that
is
a
good
thing.
B
So
I
I
appreciate
the
comments,
but
I
just
wanted
to
make
it
really
clear
that
the
people
who
are
moving
in
here
could
be
san
jose
state
students
who
are
going
to
to
school,
who
are
living
here
for
our
paying
here
to
live
here
and
who
are
benefiting
our
community
by
being
here
in
that
they
are
supporting
our
local
businesses,
which
in
the
end,
supports
our
employees
and
our
workers
and
our
residents.
So
with
that,
I
I
also
had
a
couple
of
comments
regarding
the
grants.
B
I
I,
as
a
small
business
owner,
I'm
getting
those
notifications
from
the
city
and
that's
great.
I
think
the
city
is
doing
a
really
good
job
at
pushing
out
that
message
that
grants
are
available
and
as
far
as
the
ppp
loans
are
concerned,
those
were
a
godsend
to
the
small
businesses
to
help
them
survive
through
a
really
difficult
time.
B
So
I
just
wanted
to
thank
you
for
reporting
on
those
things.
Elizabeth
and
also
regarding
arts,
arts
artists
are
very
they're
entrepreneurs
by
nature
and
they
have
figured
out
a
way
to
perhaps
not
thrive
but
survive
and
also
deliver
an
artist
artistic
message
about
the
world
we're
living
under
with
covid
and
with
the
protests
and
with
all
the
wildfires
and
everything
that's
happened.
B
So
I'm
I'm
really
glad
to
see
that
some
of
our
artists
are
doing
well
and
next
month,
at
our
ced
committee
meeting,
we
will
have,
I
believe,
two
reports
on
various
facets
of
our
artists
and
the
artist
community.
So
I
look
forward
to
hearing
those
as
well
with
that
I'll
turn
it
over
to
the
committee.
Is
there
anyone
from
the
committee
who
has
a
question
council,
member
mayhem.
I
Thanks
chair
I'll,
be
really
quick.
One
one
question
one
comment
I'll
just
see
the
comment
first,
which
is
that
I
have
been
unable
to
click
the
links
in
the
attachment.
I'm
just
wondering
if
there's
a
workaround,
I
don't
know
if
this
is
posted
publicly
somewhere
else,
but
I
was
unable
to
access
any
of
the
links.
Unfortunately,
is
that
something
we
can
address.
A
I
Awesome
yeah.
That
would
be
great.
We
would
love
to
actually
share
this
with
constituents.
It's
a
great
update
and
then
great
to
hear
all
the
positive
news.
One
question
I
had
under
the
second
update
on
construction
is
the
line
that
says
under
review
or
also
7555
housing
units.
As
we
know,
I
was
just
curious
if
we
have
an
assessment
of
average
days
in
the
queue
how
how
long
they've
been
in
that
pipeline,
what
stage
those
projects
are
in
and
what
might
accelerate
them
do
we
do?
I
A
And
councilmember
rosalind
may
well
have
additional
information.
I
I
just
wanted
to
let
you
know
that
at
this
moment
we
can
follow
up.
We
don't
have
the
specifics,
but
one
of
the
issues
council
member
has
been
financing.
There
have
been
a
number
of
issues
for
a
variety
of
reasons,
costs
that
are
making
the
projects
not
pencil
at
the
moment,
so
they're
not
getting
their
financing,
but
we
can
follow
up
roseland.
Sorry,
if
I
jump
the
gun
on
you,
you
might
have
other.
C
No,
that's
fine
nancy,
I
would
just
add
councilmember
mahan,
regarding
if
a
project
is
currently
going
through
the
planning
permit
stage,
we
can
certainly
provide
information.
Emily
lipoma,
our
development
facilitator
works
with
the
planning
team
in
terms
of
tracking
major
development
projects.
So,
and
actually
we
have
reported
in
terms
of
our
residential
production
numbers
we've.
We
have
reported
that
information
under
our
housing
crisis
work
plan
as
well
just
a
few
weeks
ago
at
council,
but
we
can
certainly
follow
up
with
you
on
information
on
that.
I
Yeah,
thank
you
so
much,
and
I
I
yes,
I
remember
seeing
the
same
number
similar
number
a
couple
of
weeks
ago.
I
I
did
find
it
interesting
that,
and
you
can
tell
me
if
this
is
an
uptick
or
not,
but
over
1100
units
submitted
for
review
in
the
last
quarter
is
that
is
that
an
increase
and
do
we
have
any
idea
what
we
would
attribute
that
to.
A
I
B
K
A
K
B
B
C
C
So,
as
part
of
the
city
council's
priority
session
and
roadmap
process,
earlier
this
year,
councilmember
perales
proposed
the
creation
of
a
city-wide
copic
19
recovery
task
force.
That
would
look
at
the
models
of
the
greater
downtown
san
jose
economic
recovery
task
force
and
that
of
the
health
and
racial
equity
task
force.
So
the
idea
was
to
establish
a
cross-sector
community-based
group
that
would
lead
the
city
in
terms
of
recovery.
Next
slide.
C
C
Before
I
also
want
to
add
that
the
staff
did
establish
some
initial
guiding
principles
to
help
us
along
with
this
work
and
of
course
we
are
leading
with
people.
We
are
definitely
leading
with
equity,
and
we
are
choosing
that
we're
going
to
acknowledge
the
value
of
everyone
in
our
process,
particularly
our
neighbors
in
our
community,
and
that
we're
choosing
to
be
empathetic,
which
means
that
we
are
taking
the
time
to
see
an
issue
or
an
experience
through
someone
else's
eyes
versus
through
our
own
and
obviously,
through
all
of
this
work.
C
C
Obviously
the
group
will
be
deep
in
engagement
with
our
community
and
we'll
be
developing
a
community
engagement
and
communication
strategy
and
a
big
part
of
this
group's
work
is
really
going
to
be
sharing
information.
So
taking
information
back
to
their
community
groups,
asking
questions
about
what's
working,
what's
not
what's
needed.
Where
are
the
gaps
and
then
bringing
that
information
back
to
the
group
and
then
ultimately
developing
new
recommendations
for
our
city
council
to
consider
next
slide.
C
So
staff
has
actually
looked
at
a
couple
of
different
models
in
terms
of
a
proposed
composition
for
the
recovery
task
force.
We
have
many
groups
that
have
been
established
that
staff
has
worked
with
in
the
past
and
we
think
that
the
station
area
advisory
group
or
the
sag
is
a
good
model
to
use.
We
just
completed
that
process
with
the
downtown
west
development
project
a
few
months
ago
and
so
we're
suggesting
to
use
that
as
a
model
for
the
recovery
task
force.
C
So
at
this
point
we
are
suggesting
that
the
the
task
force
be
made
up
of
no
more
than
35
member
organizations
and
then
realizing.
This
is
a
city-wide
task
force
and
that
we
have
many
items
to
discuss.
You'll
see
this
list
here
of
items
that
staff
has
initially
come
up
with,
including
health
and
housing
and
digital
equity,
child
care,
arts
and
culture,
of
course,
re-employment
and
workforce
development
and
small
business
recovery,
and
obviously,
as
we
work
with
the
task
force,
there
may
be
other
items
and
other
topics
they
they
may
want
to
tackle
as
well.
C
C
C
An
early
item
for
the
task
force
is
what
we're
calling
an
arp
101,
so
learning
all
about
the
arp
funds,
their
eligibility,
and
so
we
are
looking
to
inform
the
group
of
all
of
that
as
well,
and
then
we're
looking
at
or
suggesting
that
the
group
may
want
to
establish
solution
groups.
So
there
may
be
some
topics:
child
care,
for
example,
that
certain
members
of
the
group
really
want
to
dig
in
and
work
with
the
community
and
coming
up
with
what
those
recommendations
for
now.
C
Next
and
later
and
again,
as
I
mentioned-
leveraging
other
efforts
that
are
are
already
underway-
and
you
see
here
in
in
this
graphic
right.
Of
course,
the
work
of
the
task
force
will
be
based,
grounded
in
data
and
analysis
and
also
equally
important.
It's
going
to
be
based
on
our
experiences
of
the
members
of
our
communities.
C
How
do
we
make
sure
our
children
are
healthy,
are
fed,
are
able
to
go
to
school
and
learn
to
make
sure
that
that
the
family
unit
is
whole
and
healthy,
and
also
making
sure
that
there
is
reliable
income
right
coming
into
those
households
so
that
those
households
can
can
begin
to
sustain
themselves?
So
obviously,
a
lot
of
work
around
workforce
development
and
small
business
recovery
and
then,
in
terms
of
the
community
participation
spectrum?
C
C
We
are
suggesting
that
each
member
organization
would
decide
amongst
themselves
who
would
actually
serve
on
the
task
force.
So
we
would
go
through
that
process
and
get
those
actual
names.
And
then,
when
you,
we
are
anticipating
the
first
task
force
meeting
to
take
place,
probably
in
late
october,
and
then
we
would
be
back
to
the
ced
committee
with
our
next
status
report
in
april
of
next
year,
and
I
believe
that
is
the
last
slide.
Yes,
and
with
that
I
am
happy
to
take
any
questions.
You
may
have
great.
H
Task
force
all
right:
the
roadmap-
I
guess
arp-
I'm
not
really
clear
exactly
what
arp
stands
for.
I
think
we
have
to
be
careful
using
acronyms
and
really
to
describe
things
more
clearly
to
everybody.
I
think
that
the
the
public
outreach
is
is
very
insufficient
about
how
you
do
things
I
mean,
even
if
I
go
to
the
rules
committee,
how
many
people
go
to
your
rules
committee
and
I
don't
get
any
data
about.
What's
on
the
agenda,
I
mean
that's
an
example.
H
You
know
of
how
poorly
our
city
is
is
run
and
and
that
there
isn't.
You
know
it's
supposed
to
be,
even
for
the
whole.
So
getting
back
to
this
whole
issue
of
you
know,
rebuilding
back
and
is
a
very
critical
issue
and
there's
a
lot
of
bs
about
even
that
there's
a
housing
crisis
because
you
guys
just
passed
in
my
neighborhood,
wouldn't
even
allow
affordable
housing
based
on
deb
david.
H
I
know
yeah
okay,
now
you're
going
to
interrupt
me
yeah.
I
was
talking
about
the
task
force
that
we
lost
housing
in
my
neighborhood.
Okay.
So
now
I
am
fighting
for
clean
air.
I've
been
fighting
for
clean
air
in
my
neighborhood
since
I've
been
here
because
I
live
across
from
a
diesel
bus
depot.
Okay,
that
harassed
us
with
noise;
okay.
H
So
I'm
talking
about
equity
in
terms
of
pollution
and
in
terms
of
the
impacts
on
my
neighborhood,
the
death
and
disability
that
has
come
to
my
neighborhood,
okay,
the
guard
in
alameda,
because
we
are
near
the
tracks
we
are
on
the
tracks.
We
are
on
the
caltrain
diesel
dealing
with
the
caltrain
with
the
cmos
in
our
community
with
we
are
in
a
care
community
and
nothing
has
been
done
to
my
neighborhood
and
then
oh,
don't
forget
about
the
airport.
H
You
know
when
they're
talking
about
greed,
hilla
hill
view
well
yeah
and
the
pollution
in
the
lead
we've
been
fighting
it.
Citizens
against
airport
pollution
with
our
mayor,
we've
been
fighting
it
with
our
airport
and
the
diesel
and
the.
So
that's
why
I'm
saying
we
need
to
grow
food.
We
need
a
fossil
fuel
free
event,
installation
in
my
neighborhood
because
of
the
the
impacts
of
all
the
climate
crisis
that
is
based
on
the
pollution
and
and
burning
of
fossil
fuels.
And
that's
why
I
say
we
need
a
fossil
fuel,
free
garden.
F
Thank
you,
councilwoman,
I'm
asking.
If
you
can,
please
not
put
that
bell
at
the
at
the
end.
Just
once
our
public
comments
are
done.
That's
that's
just
it.
That's
that's
like
a
dismissal,
and
so
I
would
ask
please
if
you
can
cancel
the
bell.
Thank
you
rosalind.
My
comments
are
not
directed
at
you,
but
they're
directed
at
the
fact
that
at
the
meeting
last
week
I
asked
the
city
auditor,
which
goes
through
every
single
department.
F
He
had
the
word
equity
and
the
equity
word
was
lowercased.
It
was
not
capitalized
and
I
had
an
issue
with
that.
Okay,
because
you
have
to
that,
is
a
noun
that
needs
to
be
capitalized,
okay
and
so
the
when
I
asked
him
what
lens?
How
did
you
apply?
This
word
that
you
used
three
times
and
on
a
city
document
say
how
what
did
you
apply?
What
principles
did
you
use
and
what
deficiencies
did
you
find
in
all
of
these
departments
with
respect
to
centering
equity
within
the
context
of
city
government?
F
And
what
issues
do
you
feel
need
to
be
addressed?
Because,
obviously,
if
you
use
this
equity
lens,
you
would
have
extracted
the
disparities
and
would
be
able
to
articulate
them.
Why?
Because
you
use
the
equity
lens
with
respect
to
the
department,
because
we're
dealing
with
institutionalized
racism
here
that
still
has
not
been
dealt
with.
So
you
want
to
create
all
this
system
to
to
to
to
develop
our
economic
viability
for
the
future.
F
I'm
sorry
to
know
that,
but
we
haven't
even
done
with
the
past.
We're
still
we're
still
dealing
with
the
I
am
still
dealing
literally.
Hundreds
of
thousands
of
people
in
the
city
are
still
dealing
with
the
after
effects
of
two
things:
manifest
destiny
in
1846
and
the
redlining
policies
that
were
created
in
1938
until
we
start
dealing
with
that,
first
primarily
then
move
from
there.
We
ain't.
G
Hi.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
for
this
item.
Thank
you
for
paul's
words.
Thank
you
for
the
task
force,
I'm
hopeful
what
it
can
accomplish
to
begin
with.
You
know
we've
been
wanting
to
practice
ideas
of
a
digital
equity.
That's
a
part
of
this
memo
and
and
ideas
of
bridging
the
digital
divide,
incredibly
incredibly
important,
but
what
about
the
open
public
policy
ideas
that
can
go
with
helping
to
bridge
the
digital
divide?
These
were
difficult
subjects
for
all
of
us
to
talk
about
a
few
years
ago.
G
I
think
it's
more
easier,
easier
to
comprehend
and
understand
what
its
good
role
and
purpose
for
you
know
this
concept
of
working
arm
and
arm
and
hand
in
hand
towards
with
these.
With
this
subject
matter,
it's
just
it
just
speaks
volumes
to
the
ideas
of
equity,
of
community
morale,
of
good
democratic
practices.
What
we're
trying
to
accomplish
with
this
work
so
really
look
into
it.
I
thank
you.
This
item
is
like
a
compliment
to
your
work
on.
G
You
had
a
huge
hour
and
a
half
long
session
at
city
council
on
the
future
of
digital
issues
for
the
city,
smart,
smart
issues
last
week.
This
really
complements
that
work,
and
I
spoke
earlier
the
importance
of
the
democratic
process
you
know
in
in
data
collection,
work
and
what
it
can
really
work
towards,
and
so
you're
you're
doing
that
now,
you're
getting
awesome
advice
from
paul.
G
G
That's
important,
and
I
have
more
to
speak
about
this
item.
I
think
at
open
forum
time
but
you're
on
to
a
good
start,
and
it's
important
that
this
fall.
We
really
consider
open
democratic
practices.
Considering
we've
had
a
tough
month
of
may
with
bta
stuff
and
with
covet
issues.
Open
democratic
practices
are
incredibly
positive.
Let's
all
be
working
towards
it.
You
guys
are
thank
you.
L
Hey:
hey
tim,
this
economic
recovery
task
force.
Really
you
can't
polish
a
turd
okay,
you
should
have
an
economic
recovery
task
force
10
years
ago.
I
received
that
downtown.
It's
disgusting
and
the
bell.
At
the
end,
I
I'm
with
paul
it's
stupid
and
weird
I
mean.
Definitely
someone
from
the
school
board
probably
gave
you
the
idea,
but
yeah.
No,
this!
It's
not
going
to
happen.
There's
not
going
to
be
an
economic
recovery
if
you're
going
to
keep
with
these
policies
like
wanting
to
have
coveted
papers.
L
L
I
know-
and
you
know
that
in
your
whole
town
hall,
not
letting
me
on
that's
great,
because
I'm
gonna
have
my
own
town
hall
at
your
little
viva
park
thing
on
the
26th
I'll,
be
there,
and
then
we
can
discuss
some
issues
because
you
refused
to
discuss
them
the
other
day
you
kept
me
out
of
that
which
is
illegal.
By
the
way
I
was
one
of
the
first
people
to
sign
in
and
for
a
whole
hour.
You
never
called
on
me.
L
I
don't
believe
you,
I
don't
believe
you
at
all
and
you
should
be
ashamed
of
yourself.
Looking
at
this
district
with
the
burned
out
building
on
hillsdale
that
that
one
of
your
staff
members
knew
nothing
about
you
put
a
guy
in
a
meeting.
Who
knows
nothing
about
the
district
on
his
first
day
of
the
job
and
he
promised
to
get
back
to
me
and
he
didn't.
I
had
to
call
your
office.
N
Cheerfully
members
of
the
commission
committee-
I
should
say
good
afternoon-
I'm
jeffrey
cannon,
I'm
here
for
working
partnerships
yeah.
I
would
like
to
thank
rosalind
and
staff
for
their
work
preparing
this
outline
around
the
economic
recovery
task
force,
and
you
know
thank
councilmember
perales
for
first
putting
the
idea
forward
during
priority
setting
just
a
couple
of
quick
thoughts.
Certainly
there's
a
tremendous
amount
of
work
ahead
in
defining
the
city's
economic
recovery.
N
I
think
it's
important
as
we
create
this
process,
that
we
ensure
that
it's
we
we
have
a
meaningful
schedule
that
will
allow
for
this
body
to
really
be
able
to
provide
input
around
the
american
recovery
plan
dollars.
Certainly,
council
will
begin
its
exploration
of
some
of
those
issues,
perhaps
a
little
bit
before
this.
This
body
really
gets
up
and
and
fully
running
so
trying
to
make
sure
that
we're
lining
up
the
timing
of
those
two
processes
is
gonna
be
really
important.
N
Secondly,
you
know
beyond
the
american
recovery
plan
dollars,
there's
the
potential
for
another.
A
couple
of
large
sets
of
appropriations
coming
out
of
congress
with
with
these
infrastructure
bills.
Trying
to
think
about
how
this
particular
body
may
be
able
to
help
the
city
think
about
how
it
positions
and
plans
around
leveraging
some
of
those
large
financial
flows
that
that
could
really
help
to
accelerate
our
recovery
as
well.
Lastly,
it's
really
important,
as
we
think
about
this
recovery
that
we
make
sure
we're
centering
workers.
N
You
know
we
talked
a
lot
about
essential
workers
in
in
regards
to
the
covid
emergency.
You
know
we
have
we've.
As
a
city,
we've
passed
some
very
important
policies.
We
need
to
make
sure
that
we
have
worker
voices,
labor
unions,
worker
centers,
other
worker
voices
for
those
industries
that
have
been
hit
the
hardest
at
the
table.
We've
been
good
about
having
non-profits
about
having
small
businesses
involved
in
these
kinds
of
conversations.
We
need
to
make
sure
we're,
not
forgetting
workers.
B
Thank
you,
jeffrey
and,
and
that's
a
good
point
as
to
the
makeup
of
the
committee
or
the
task
force,
there's
a
there's,
a
huge
space
called
others,
and
I'm
hoping
that
labor
and
other
working
partnerships
will
be
involved
in
that
others.
But
I
there's
a
lot
of
room
with
a
35
member
organization
to
make
sure
that
we
reach
out
to
all
representatives
and
we
have
a
cross
representation
of
participants
on
the
task
force.
So
thank
you
for
your
suggestions
on
that.
J
Thanks,
I
had
some
questions
and
actually
really
I'll,
just
go
straight
to
comments
in
terms
of
suggestions
on
the
makeup
of
the
task
force,
how
I'll
start
with
the
question
and
then
go
into
the
comments?
How
far
have
we
gone
in
terms
of
maybe
not
identifying
a
name
but
identifying
key
partners
in
organizations
or
buckets
right?
The
previous
caller
mentioned
non-profits
and
workers.
C
C
C
J
J
But
it's
utilizing
these
models,
creating
cross-sector
recommendations
to
the
city
council
in
terms
of
covid
economic
and
social
recovery.
You
know,
I
think,
even
just
as
recently
as
a
few
months
ago,
I
think
we
had
hoped
to
be
in
a
different
place
than
we
are
now
and
we
had
hoped
to
really
be
in
recovery.
J
C
Thank
you,
councilmember.
That
is
a
really
great
question,
and
and
honestly
I
will
say
that
we
are
still
thinking
about
how
that's
going
to
work.
Obviously,
when
we
were
at
city
council,
you
know
back
in
may
we
thought
this
recovery
would
be
kicking
off
at
a
much
different
rate
in
speed
and
focus,
and
to
your
point
now
we
find
ourselves
doing
both
responding
and
recovery
at
the
same
time.
C
C
Perhaps
there
may
be
a
need
to
shift
some
of
the
funding
where
we
thought
it
would
be
more
on
the
recovery
side
of
the
house.
Actually,
there
could
be
a
need
to
bring
it
back
more
to
response
where
we're
looking
more
at
basics,
food
and
necessity.
Things
like
that.
So
so,
honestly,
I
I
think
that
you
know
we're
going
to
be
monitoring
it
very
closely
and
making
those
decisions
and
and
making
pivoting
as
necessary
through
both
response
and
recovery.
J
Thank
you
yeah,
and
that
was
sort
of
one
of
the
well.
That
was
really
the
question.
I
was
asking
myself
as
I
read
the
memo
and
looked
at
the
presentation
and
in
addition
to
sort
of
the
timing
connecting
the
timing
with
the
money,
because
next
month
we're
going
to
get
more
information
as
we
go
back
to
take
the
second
bite
of
the
budget
in
october,
which
you
know
the
reality
is
that
we
might
have
to
put
have
a
another
bite
at
the
apple
and
really
save
some
money.
J
You
know
later
than
we
thought
trying
to
portion
some
of
that,
because
we
may
still
be
in
response
for
longer.
But
I,
as
I
was
reading
the
memo
and
looking
at
the
presentation,
I
was
looking
at
two
things.
I
was
looking
at
connecting
the
listening
part
of
it,
but
also
the
operational
part
of
it,
and
so
I
had
some
requests
in
terms
of
the
operational
part
of
it.
J
We
have
leaned
on
them
for
everything,
and
so
I
think
we
need
to
make
sure
that
we
have
school
districts,
be
a
part
of
this
task
force,
and
I
know
folks
might
say:
oh
we'll
have
the
county.
You
know
office
of
ed,
I'm
actually
going
to
push
a
little
bit
harder
and
say
we
should
do
some
outreach
to
the
east
side,
union,
high
school
district,
san
jose,
unified
school
districts,
franklin,
mckinley
and
alum
rock
and
probably
oak
grove
and
mount
pleasant
and
evergreen
has
not
only
west
evergreen.
J
And
you
know,
we've
all
read
the
newspapers.
We
all
read
what's
happening
in
la
and
san
francisco
and
oakland,
like
schools
are
looking
at.
Some
of
them
have
already
had
to
like
isolate
and
quarantine,
and
it's
going
to
be
a
bit
of
a
bumpy
ride.
I
think,
and
so
we
need
to
ask
them
how
they
want
to
interface
with
us
if
it
is
through
the
county
office
of
ed
great,
but
I
think
we
need
to
ask
them.
How
do
you
want
to
interface
with
us
on
these
different
buckets?
J
We
might
get
some
responses
saying
well
when
it
comes
to
these
buckets.
This
might
be
the
best
approach
when
it
comes
to
these
other
buckets.
Sometimes
you
know
they're
going
to
be
going
100
miles
an
hour.
Maybe
they
just
need
us
to
do
that
extra
outreach
and
make
sure
that
we
get
their
input
and
as
well
as
their
frankly
operational
partnership.
We.
J
A
single
thing
that
we've
done
during
covid
without
the
school
districts,
the
other
thing
you
know
you
said
something
really
important
in
your
presentation,
which
is
stabilizing
families
and
that's
a
really
powerful
statement.
And
again
I,
as
I
thought
of
I
know
we
have
svcn
but,
as
I
thought
of
partners
again
that
we've
worked
with
across
multiple
buckets,
I
would
look
at
first,
five
being
another
one,
because
they've
helped
us
with
food
with
diapers.
J
J
J
And
lastly,
I
wanted
to
mention
councilmember
carrasco,
I
know
she's
here,
but
she
leads
a
health
equity
task
force
and
I,
I
am
sure,
you've
already
included
it
in
the
work
plan,
but
to
have
that
task
force
present
to
to
the
community
to
our
own
recovery
task
force,
to
create
a
linkage
between
them.
I
think
is
important,
because
we
are
going
to
need
that
health
equity
we're
going
to
need
vaccinations
and
testing
going
on
a
lot
longer
than
we
seen,
particularly
as
we
continue
to
see
employer
mandates
grow.
J
We
might
want
to
partner
more
with
employers
to
do
pop-up
vaccinations,
pop-up
testing
as
these
mandates
roll
out,
so
that
we
can
really
help
the
families
as
well
as
our
economy.
So
that's
that's
it
for
me.
I
just
wanted
to
give
that
input.
I
know
we'll
be
able
to
see
what
that
plan
looks
like
in
september,
but
there's
a
lot.
A
lot
happening
right
now
regards
to
covet
it's
changing
daily.
Thank
you.
K
Yeah,
thank
you
very
much
chair
and
staff
for
the
the
presentation,
councilman
sparza,
for
your
your
comments.
I
I
agree
now.
You
know
we
didn't
necessarily
expect
to
be
in
this
situation,
but,
quite
frankly,
we
I
think
we
always
knew
that
the
the
pandemic
was
dynamic
and,
and
we
weren't
fully
out-
and
we
know
that
we're
not
out
today
and
I
think
that
the
task
force
you
know
its
purpose
still
can
be
fulfilled.
K
That's
exactly
what
I
heard
from
community
members
last
year
was
was
simply
just
wanting
to
have
a
forum,
a
space
for
communication
dialogue,
exchange
of
of
ideas
concerns
there's
so
much
going
on,
as
we
do
know,
orders
from
the
federal
government,
the
state,
our
county,
local
here
within
the
city
opportunities
for
support,
you
name
it
right
and
it's
really
really
difficult
when
you're
just
catching
news
flashes
of.
What's
you
know,
what's
changed
or
what's
new,
what
opportunities
are
there
and
the
the
best
thing
that
the
the
two
task
forces?
K
K
Again,
and
and
and
having
that
on
a
regular
basis,
especially
with
as
rapidly
as
things
were,
changing,
and
here
we
are
again
that's
exactly
where
we
remain
and
we
may
not
be
fully
in
recovery.
We
may
be
still
within
response,
but
I
think
that
the
task
force
can
discuss
really
all
three
and
especially,
if
the
right
our
goal.
My
goal
was
that
it
be
a
year
long,
and
I
think
that
the
the
conversation
around
response,
recovery
and
resiliency
all
three
of
them
are
going
to
be.
K
C
Thank
you,
councilmember.
Well,
certainly,
the
the
task
force
in
their
advisory
role
on
the
roadmap
initiatives.
Obviously
we
have
the
opportunity
to
advise
and
question
and
guide
the
city
departments
who
are
currently
working
on
the
initiatives,
and
we
are
also
exploring-
and
I'm
talking
with
jim,
shannon
about
this
and
he's
going
to
be
coming
out
with
an
info
memo
around
the
american
recovery
plan
dollars
as
well.
C
K
I'd
like
to
come
back
within
three
months
at
first
and
and
see
if
we
could,
even
if
it's
just
get
initial
thoughts.
I
I
believe
that
the
task
force
is
likely
gonna.
You
know
dive
in
and
already
have
some
advice
to
share
and
if,
if
that
gives
us
an
opportunity
to
be
thinking
ahead
of
time
of
of
again,
it
could
be
preliminary,
but
what
their
thoughts
are.
I'd
like
to
hear
back
before
april,
so
maybe
in
in
january,
beginning
of
the
year
or
february,
if
we're
not
meeting
in
january.
K
So
I
would
like
to
to
hear
back
a
little
sooner
on
a
report
back
to
this
committee
and
then
and
then
additionally,
as
was
described
in
april,
which
can
help
us
inform
if
we
do
have
any
major
budget
discussions
based
on
what
this
task
force
is
providing.
But
I'd
like
to
include
that
I'll
include
that
within
my
my
motion
and
then
I
I
would
like
to
see
some
language
again,
that
sort
of
makes
it
specific
on
how
this
task
force
will
have
an
authority.
K
I
want
them
to
know
that
they'll
have
some
authority
to
give
some
direction
on
whether
it's
american
rescue
fund
dollars
or
really
just
quite
frankly
on
knowing
that
they
can
provide
recommendation
directions
to
the
council
on
on
how
we
might
allocate
support
and
resources.
I
think
that's
that's
there
again.
It
just
wasn't
explicit
within
within
the
memo
and
and
and
I
want
to
be
flexible
as
well.
I
know
we
we
mentioned
35.
K
I
I
remember
how
the
formation
of
the
stationary
advisory
group
you
know
came
about,
and,
and
I
I
want
to
ensure
that
at
least
we're
putting
the
message
out
there
that
we're
not
it's
not
set
in
stone
that
35
and
I'm
sorry.
That's
it
right.
If
there's
a
36
that
the
council
is
debating
on
or
something
right
that
we're
going
to
say
sorry
we're
at
our
limit.
K
I
think
we
should
be
flexible
and
we
can
have
that
discussion
at
the
council
when
this
conversation
comes
back,
but
I
wanted
to
be
able
to
put
that
out
there
now
and
the
last
thing
this
is
based
on
councilmembers
bars
comments
just
to
give
an
example
of
how
we
had
it
work
on
the
greater
downtown
economic
recovery
task
force.
We
had
different
committees
based
on
you
know.
K
For
us
it
was
different
areas
of
business
segments
of
business,
but
in
this
case
it
could
be
different
areas
of
expertise
and
focus
and
in
those
committees
were
a
lot
more
participation
from
you
know
other
organizations,
and
we
actually
allowed
each
of
those
committees
much
like
we're
talking
about
here.
We
would
allow
them
to
choose
who
actually
sat
on
the
task
force
as
a
representative
for
those
committees
or
those
areas,
but
for
instance,
if
I
agree
with
councilman
sparza,
we
need
to
have
our
education
leaders
at
the
table.
K
We
can
have
a
committee
that
invites
in
each
of
the
different
school
districts
or
even
schools,
if
they
want
to
you,
know
individually,
have
a
participation
in
these
committees
that
will
meet
separately
throughout
the
month.
But
then
there
will
be
a
position
or
two
as
well
in
the
task
force
out
of
the
35
or
so
members
right.
That
is
able
to
to
be
that
liaison
between
that
that
committee.
K
But
then
that
way,
it's
not
it's
not
something,
whereas
councilwoman
as
far
as
described
it's
not
just
one
representative
from
santa
clara
county
office
of
education
and
then
we're
not
getting
any
communication
between
the
schools
themselves
or
the
school
districts
themselves.
The
committee
function
was
a
great
function
with
our
again
greater
downtown
recovery
task
force
where
that
committee
function
allowed
more
voices
to
be
at
the
table
and
and
and
it
worked
well.
K
B
Thank
you
keep
taking
myself
off
mute.
I
just
had
a
question
about
thank
you,
council,
member
prowls,
for
bringing
forward
the
idea
of
a
task
force,
the
and
and
you're
right.
It
is
more
than
just
a
recovery
at
this
point.
It's
response,
recovery
and
resiliency.
Those
are
really
important
that
we
take
into
consideration
all
the
aspects
of
of
life,
as
we
know
it
right
now,
including
the
health
of
our
residents
and
our
schools
and
digital
inclusion,
etc.
E
B
In
january
we
don't
have
a
meeting
in
december,
so
our
next
meeting
would
be
in
january,
so
I'm
a
little
concerned
about
pushing
them
to
get
a
report
to
us
by
january
or
february,
but
you're
not
comfortable
with
april
you're,
feeling
that's
too
late
to
get
the
first
report.
What
so,
what
is
it?
Can
you
narrow
the
focus
then
on
what
you'd
like
that
first
report
to
be
so
that
we
can
set
their
expectations
of
the
task
force
of
what
we
want
to
see.
K
For
instance,
it
doesn't
have
to
be
a
written
report.
It
could
be
a
verbal
right
report
that
says
here's
how
the
task
force
is
going.
Here's
what
we're
hearing,
but
I
think
that
would
be
the
low
bar
and
then
here's
why
the
example
I'll
give
as
to
why.
I
think
it
could
even
be
a
lot
more
than
that.
We
were
also
maybe
expecting
a
little
slower
process
with
the
greater
downtown
recovery
task
force.
K
K
They
wanted
to
put
together
a
set
of
recommendations,
so
what
we
ultimately
did
was
within
three
months
we
put
together
an
an
initial
set
of
recommendations,
knowing
that
it
wasn't
that
wasn't
the
end-all
be-all,
it
was
sort
of
just
here's,
the
the
first
things
that
are
high
priority
to
us.
With
that
we've
already,
you
know
we
already
want
to
send
recommendations
forward
and
it
did
actually
come
forward
in
a
you
know.
K
In
a
in
a
package,
a
formal
written,
you
know
letter
to
each
of
the
three
agencies
you
all
might
remember
that
came
last
year,
and
then
we
did
it
again
at
the
end
of
the
year
in
december,
and
then
we
did
it
again
six
months
later
so
so
it
essentially,
there
was
a
series
of
recommendations
and,
and
the
the
task
force
was
very
ambitious.
I
don't
know
if
that'll
be,
you
know
the
same.
K
That
happens
with
this
task
force
and
we,
I
think
we
could
set
the
low
bar
that
says,
hey
let's
at
least
get
a
verbal
update
in
january,
when
this
committee
meets
to
see
how
things
are
going,
maybe
they're
ready
to
set
some
early
recommendations
to
us?
Maybe
not,
but
I
think
we
should
we
should
for
us.
We
should
plug
that
that
place
in
january
on
our
on
our
agenda.
B
Okay,
I
appreciate
that.
Thank
you
that
really
helps
clarify
it
for
me,
I'm
happy
to
support
that.
There
is
some
urgency
to
this
where
the
the
recovery,
we
can't
wait
a
year
to
talk
about
the
recovery
and
you're
with
based
on
your
experience
in
in
your
first
task
force
dealing
with
the
economic
recovery.
B
I
Thanks
chair
and
appreciate,
staff's
work
on
this
and
councilman
perales
is
bringing
forward
this
idea.
It
makes
makes
sense
to
me.
I
just
had
a
couple
of
quick
questions.
So
one
is,
you
know,
as
counselor
pros
was
describing
the
value
and
one
of
the
primary
values
being
that
sort
of
communication
exchange
of
ideas,
keeping
people
in
the
loop
on
what's
going
on
that
conflicts
a
little
bit
with
that
cap
at
35,
and
even
if,
even
if
the
cap
was
50,
you
still
would
be
really
limited
and
how
much
outbound
communication
is
happening.
I
So
I
guess
I'm
just
curious
if
there's,
if
the
prior,
if
one
of
the
primary
values
really
is
that
communication
and
coordination
piece,
what
what
mechanism
this
task
force
would
have
to
do,
that
is
that
part
of
the
game
plan,
or
is
it
primarily
about
generating
cross-functional
ideas
from
within
the
35?
So
I
just
wanted
to
better
understand
the
relative
priority
and
again
the
mechanism
for
doing
I
guess
outbound,
communication
and
coordination.
If
that
is
a
primary
value,.
I
C
I
mean
the
the
the
thinking
is
that
we
want
to
cultivate,
write
this
forum
for
the
task
force
members
to
exchange
ideas,
and
I
would
say,
probably
more
importantly
or
just,
as
importantly,
you
know
the
the
task
force.
Members
are
going
to
be
part
of
organizations
that
are
already
working
in
our
neighborhoods
and
our
communities.
C
So
you
know
they're
going
they're
the
ones
who
already
have
their
ear
to
the
ground
and
can
bring
that
information
back
from
those
neighborhoods
from
the
folks
who
have
been
hit
the
hardest,
bring
it
back
to
the
larger
task
force
group.
So
I
see
it
working
both
ways.
It's
both
a
forum
for
the
task
force
members
to
share
information,
to
give
presentations
to
work
together
right
for
staff
to
share
information.
I
Yeah,
that
makes
sense-
and
I
think
that's
that
makes
that's
right
on
though
I
would
say
35
is
pretty
limited,
so
I
just
want
to
understand
how
we
ensure
that
the
word
gets
out
to
the
small
business
owner
in
district
10,
for
example,
or
the
whatever
you
know.
How
do
we
ensure
that,
with
a
pretty
small
group
of
35,
this
actually
is
a
viable
communication
channel
to
a
lot
of
people?
I
I
worry
that
it's
gonna
be
fairly
limited,
even
even
with
the
amazing
organizations
and
the
work
that
they
do.
C
Yeah,
certainly
so
you
know.
Obviously
it's
going
to
this
task
force
is
going
to
have
to
be
well
staffed
with
staffing
resources,
we're
also
exploring
bringing
on
a
consultant,
perhaps
an
an
organization
that
is
already
out
there
doing
a
lot
of
recovery
work
or
in
the
sphere
of
of
community
development.
C
To
help
us
number
one
devise
the
strategy
around
engagement
and
communication
and
then
to
help
us
get
the
job
done
as
well,
and
perhaps
you
know
along
the
same
lines
as
council
member
perales
was
suggesting
there
could
be
a
committee
or
solution
group.
That's
formed
just
around
engagement
and
communication
itself,
and
that
might
be
the
group
of
people
who
are
most
interested
in
this
and
they're
the
ones
who
are
really
kind
of
focused
zeroed.
In
on
the
information
sharing.
I
Yeah
I'd
be
interested
to
see
more
of
our
plans
there
as
they
evolve.
I
understand
we're
still
pretty
early,
but
I
think
if,
if
the
primary
value
was
just
generating
policy
recommendations,
I'd
be
less
worried
about
that.
But
given
how
much
of
the
importance,
as
we've
stated,
it
is
actually
on
community
engagement
and
communication.
I
I
But
I
just
I
really
think
in
the
long
run,
we're
going
to
need
new
dollars,
and
I
don't
want
to
bank
entirely
on
federal
stimulus
to
get
us
where
we
need
to
be.
I
think
we're
also
going
to
need
philanthropic
dollars,
we're
going
to
need
private
sector
investment
and
I
think,
having
those
folks
in
the
conversation.
So
they
understand
where
we're
trying
to
go
and
the
impact
they
could
have
in
our
community.
I
I
think
I
think,
could
add
a
lot
of
value,
so
I
just
I
throw
that
out
for
consideration
not
not
explicitly
as
direction,
but
I
just
wanted
to
share
that
point
and
then
finally,
you
mentioned
the
you
know
high
amount
of
staff
support
that
will
be
needed,
which
makes
sense,
but
I
just
I'm
curious
if
we've
quantified
the
staff
investment
and
something
I'm
curious
about
with
all
of
our
projects
on
the
roadmap
is
understanding
trade-offs.
And
so
I'm
just
curious.
C
C
I
Great
well,
I,
for
one
at
least
hope
that
when
we
discuss
at
council
there's
an
estimate
of
of
the
staff
resources
required
and
other
other
investment,
and
that's
something
I'll
advocate
for
for
every
every
project
on
the
roadmap
to
be
clear,
I'm
not
singling
out
this
one,
but
I
just.
I
think
it
is
important
for
us
to
understand
relative
trade-offs
and
costs
of
the
new
projects
that
we're
taking
on
but
appreciate
the
discussion.
All
the
good
ideas
and
I'll
be
looking
forward
to
voting
to
support
moving
this
forward.
J
You
know
all
sorts
of
things
in
our
response
and
I
think
that
in
order
to
really
have
an
equitable
recovery
that
we
look
at
that
one
of
the
things
I'm
hearing
a
lot
out
in
the
community,
for
example,
is
it's
just
adorable
to
see
all
the
back
at
school
photos?
I'm
sure
we've
all
like
loved
them?
It's
the
cutest
thing,
seeing
everybody
so
excited
to
be
back
at
school.
J
J
I
wanted
to
make
another
point,
which
is
our
recovery
should
be
centered
in,
particularly
in
how
we
recover
in
an
equitable
approach
that
we
focus
on
really
hard
hit
areas
and
make
sure
that
we
lift
people
up
because
covet
the
impacts
of
covid
have
been
hugely
inequitable
and
some
folks
are
going
to
need
a
little
bit
more
help,
and
that
may
mean
another
round
of
very
highly
targeted
small
business
grants
it
may
be.
It
may
be
other
things
that
we
might
have
to
do.
J
I
don't
want
to
just
I'm
just
throwing
some
stuff
out,
but
we
have
to
be
very
targeted.
One
of
the
things
that
I
wanted
to
also
bring
up
was.
I
actually
appreciate
council
mann's
comments
about
making
sure
that
we
bring
in
the
philanthropic
community
I'll
argue
that
the
silicon
valley
community
foundation-
they
don't
actually
have
13
billion
dollars
at
their
disposal.
They
have
a
few
million
dollars
that
they
control,
but
nonetheless,
that
they
are
a
philanthropic
player
in
our
community,
but
we
have
other
foundations:
the
sobrato
foundation.
J
We
have
corporate
philanthropy,
for
example.
I
know
applied,
focuses
heavily
on
education
right.
We
have
the
packard
foundation,
we
have
so
that
might
be
a
subcommittee
right
like
how
can
we
coordinate
to
get
targeted
reinvestments
in
that
equitable
recovery?
And
you
know.
Lastly,
I
just
wanted
to
make
a
point
that
we
really
need
to
have
a
multicultural
approach
in
this.
J
J
They
do
want
to
listen.
They
do
want
to
help
it's
just
you
know.
Some
of
them
are
highly
specialized,
others
aren't,
and
so
you
know,
I
think
we
can
provide
really
helpful
information
to
them,
so
they
can
make
those
decisions
and
then,
lastly,
I'm
I
just
wanted
to
say
I'm
I'm
super
comfortable
with
the
timeline
moving
that
up.
I
think
all
of
us
have
been
working
on
covett
for
over
a
year.
J
I'm
sure
that
if
we
just
even
made
some
phone
calls
to
our
partners,
they
have
all
all
sorts
of
thoughts
and
opinions
on
you
know
what
they've
heard
in
the
past
18
months.
In
terms
of
you
know
what
investments
need
to
be
made
in
the
community.
I
think
I
suspect
that
they're
all
going
to
be
very
eager
to
hit
the
ground
running
and-
and
I'm
thankful
for
that-
thank
you.
That's
it
for
me,.
B
I
Yeah
thanks
I'll
be
really
quick
and
I
I
think
I
agree
with
everything
councilman
supporters
just
said.
I
did
just
as
a
kind
of
point
of
fact
just
want
to
note.
I
mean
I
don't
know
that
it
really
matters,
I'm
fine
with
sobrato
or
any
other
local
foundation.
But
I
do
I
happen
to
serve
on
a
board
for
a
couple
years.
With
the
new,
relatively
new
ceo
of
the
silicon
valley
community
foundation,
they
do
have
13.5
billion
dollars
under
management
and
then
they
disperse
about
1.3
billion
per
year.
I
The
thing
that
I
think
is
noteworthy
just
worth
sharing
is
historically
of
the
of
the
1.3
billion
that's
disbursed
in
the
last
year
and
every
year
right,
it's
most
a
lot
of
that
has
been
out
of
the
region.
It's
been
international,
it's
been,
and
I
think
under
nicole's,
new
leadership
there's
been
a
refocusing
locally,
which
I
think
is
a
huge
opportunity
for
us.
I
I
think
there's
now
an
emphasis
on
paying
more
attention
to
what's
happening
in
our
in
our
backyard
and
there's
really
significant
funds
that
are
that
are
starting
to
be
reallocated
from
international
to
local
initiatives.
So
I
just
I
just
wanted
to
flag
that,
but
again
I
don't
particular
I
mean
I
think
there
are
multiple
local
foundations
who
are
worth
reaching
out.
A
B
A
B
B
I
J
I
B
Okay,
great,
thank
you
for
that
good
discussion
around
the
task
force.
I
look
forward
to
the
report
in
january.
Next
is
a
report
on
the
city-wide
residential
anti-disbursement
strategy,
verbal
report.
This
is
a
quarter
report
that
I
see
reagan
has
unmuted
herself
and
she's
ready
you're
ready
to
go.
I.
G
O
Great,
thank
you
councilmember.
Thank
you,
reagan,
henninger,
here
with
the
housing
department.
I'm
also
here
with
jackie
morales
ferrand,
our
director,
along
with
kristen
clements,
who
is
our
division
manager
over
our
policy
team,
and
this
is
our
quarterly
update
on
our
residential
anti-displacement
strategy.
A
O
By
the
city,
the
county's
office
of
supportive
housing
destination,
home
sacred
heart
and
46
grassroots
partners
launched
in
may,
and
this
local
program
is
focused
on
extremely
low
income.
Households
in
areas
that
are
heavily
impacted
by
coven
19.,
the
local
program
launched
in
may
and
in
san
jose.
We
have
just
over
2700
applications,
totaling
27
million-
and
here
are
these-
are
the
top
four
zip
codes
that
are
accessing
the
program
in
san
jose.
O
Next
slide
so
critical
to
the
rental
assistance
program.
Is
the
eviction
moratorium
and
having
protections
in
place
while
the
rental
assistance
programs
get
the
funding
disbursed
to
our
most
vulnerable?
Households
is
essential
and
the
state
moratorium
expires
september
30th.
So
the
administration
will
return
to
council
in
september
with
an
update
on
what
actions,
if
any,
can
be
taken.
O
The
city
hall,
rental
assistance
help
center
opened
three
weeks
ago
and
we
are
opening
a
second
help
center
at
franklin,
mckinley
school
district.
This
week
last
week
and
this
week,
temporary
staff
from
the
vaccine
sites
have
moved
over
to
the
housing
department
to
work
at
the
rental
assistance
centers,
both
at
city
hall
and
the
franklin
mckinley
location.
O
And,
finally,
we're
working
with
the
law
foundation
to
expand
their
capacity
to
provide
legal
support
so
we'll
be
using
american
rescue
plan
funds
to
fund
about
a
a
40
increase
in
legal
services
and
now
I'll
turn
it
over
to
kristin.
To
give
an
update
on
our
tenant
preference
work,
copa
and
the
housing
commission.
A
M
This
is
jackie
morales
friend,
I'm
the
director
of
the
housing
department
and
about
the
and
kristin.
If
you
come
on,
just
feel
the
jump
and
jump
in,
and
I
will
stop
talking
so
we
have
tried
to
move
forward.
Our
tenant
preferences
work.
So
one
of
the
things
we
did
is
we
worked
with
cortese
to
initiate
some
legislation.
M
Unfortunately,
the
bill
did
not
make
it
through
this
year,
but
has
become
a
two-year
bill
and,
and
so
the
hope
is
that
we'll
be
able
to
get
it
over
the
goal
line
next
year.
This
will
help
us
to
be
able
to
use
tenant
preferences
locally
by
ensuring
that
the
state
has
recognized
the
need
for
this
type
of
work.
M
We've
also
been
working
very
closely
with
the
housing
community
development
department,
which
is
the
state
housing
department,
and
we
had
had
high
hopes
that,
because
the
director
came
from
the
obama
administration
and
worked
in
fair
housing
that
he
would
be
very
open
to
working
with
us
on
this
issue
and
he
is
very
open.
But
the
challenge
is,
he
has
clear
concerns
regarding
how
communities
might
use
these
types
of
preferences
to
be
exclusive
instead
of
inclusive
and.
B
B
E
E
They
said
three
to
four
months
on
how
cities
could
do
analysis
and
how
they
could
get
comfortable
with
it,
but
we
have
been
working
with
them
ongoing.
They
know
we're
a
good
actor
and
they
intend
to
you
know,
work
with
us,
cooperatively
on
this.
It's
just
that
they
had
budget
priorities
and
homelessness
funding
to
get
out
and
lots
of
other
things
going
on,
as
we
all
do
so.
E
Unfortunately,
while
we
have
been
working
with
the
state
on
the
analysis
that
they
want
to
see
our
project
in
mayfair,
ketzel
gardens
that
has
both
local
and
state
money
did
get
built
and
it
did
get
leased
up.
The
project
had
approximately
3
000
applications
for
the
42
units
that
are
non-homeless
housing.
Those
homeless
units
get
a
direct
referral
through
our
continuum
of
care
vulnerability
index,
but
for
the
42
units
there
were
350
applications
from
zip
code
95116.
E
There
were
over
200
residents
that
somos
mayfair
tried
to
help
directly
to
apply
and
get
their
applications
ready,
and
unfortunately,
no
one
was
successful
in
that
in
competing
in
that
avalanche
of
applications,
it
was
70
to
1
in
terms
of
demand
and
supply
for
the
app
locations
for
the
family
units.
So
this
example
proves
the
needs
that
preferences.
E
You
know
you
can't
substitute
anything
else
for
this
prioritized
list
and
hcd
staff
actually
said.
Please
write
this
up.
I'd
be
happy
to
move
this
forward
as
an
example
of
a
community
trying
to
do
this.
The
right
way
and
really
nothing
else,
would
substitute
for
the
preference,
so
that
case
study
did
go
over
to
them
and
we're
hope,
hoping
that
that
accelerates
the
director's
attention
on
this
issue.
E
So,
in
addition
to
the
hcd
basic
analysis,
of
course,
the
bill
that
we're
working
on
they
would
need
to
sign
off
on
because
they
are
the
subject
matter:
expert
for
the
governor
on
the
bill.
So
really
all
roads
do
lead
to
to
to
the
state
and
in
the
meantime,
we
are
getting
together
systems
where
we
can
capture
protected
class
information
to
analyze,
to
make
our
data
sources
better
and
able
to
analyze
the
way
that
the
state
will
dictate.
E
E
This
slide
shows
the
38
organizations
regularly
represented
at
our
technical
advisory
committee
meetings,
which
are
happening
one
to
two
times
a
month
and
our
stakeholder
advisory
committee
meetings,
which
are
open
to
the
public
and
much
broader
other
folks,
have
come
sporadically.
I
didn't
list
those
organizations
here
and,
of
course,
many
members
of
the
public
come
to
the
stakeholder
advisory
meetings
to
make
their
views
known
as
well.
E
So
it's
that
is
that
we're
using
the
tac
as
and
help
in
designing
the
technical
aspects
of
the
program
proposal
and
the
stakeholder
advisory
group
to
keep
them
informed
and
get
their
feedback
too.
For
the
tac,
we've
held
five
out
of
seven
planned
meetings
and
we've
got
a
q
a
session
for
them
this
week.
You
know
if
they
have
any
burning
issues:
they're
not
getting
answers
to
yet
for
the
sac
we've
held
four
out
of
five
planned
meetings,
focusing
on
coppa
for
this.
E
Our
staff
also
talked
with
other
cities
in
a
regional
convening
that
are
also
working
on
some
kind
of
similar
program
development
to
get
updates
on
their
thoughts
and
what
they
are
putting
together.
So
that
was
really
interesting
as
well.
We're
putting
up
a
webpage
to
let
people
know
more
information,
and
the
plan
is
to
return
to
cedc
late
this
year
and
then
city
council
early
next
year.
E
E
You
know
focused
and
productive
and
compensated
for
their
time,
and
in
addition,
we
are
looking
also
at
other
underrepresented
groups
that
may
not
have
been
on
hcdc
in
the
recent
past
and
thinking
about
the
optimal
number
of
seats.
But
first
our
priority
is
to
get
that
lived
experience,
seats
to
be
created
and
filled.
While
we
go
through
more
work,
long
term.
E
So,
over
the
next
three
months,
as
reagan
said,
until
we
see
you
again
for
a
quarterly
update,
we're
focusing
hard
on
emergency
rental
assistance
and
making
sure,
as
many
people
and
landlords
apply
as
possible
to
either
the
state
program
or
the
local
we've
stood
up
and
will
be
operating.
The
eviction
help
centers.
We
just
hired
a
new
staff
member
to
oversee
this
help.
Center's
operation,
we'll
return
back
to
council
next
month.
E
We
are
also
putting
up
a
web
page
for
this
work
so
that
the
public
can
be
more
apprised
of
what
copa
is
and
is
not.
I
think,
there's
some
misconceptions
out
there
as
to
what
we're
doing
so.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
we
are
transparent
about
this
work
and
finally
progressing
more
on
the
lived
experience.
Commissioner,
with
the
idea
that
we
will
come
back
with
a
municipal
code,
amendment
to
add
the
seat
and
and
the
steps
necessary
to
to
board
that
lived
experienced.
B
H
Okay,
thank
you.
Yes,
the
displacement
that
we're
talking
about
is
so
widespread
with
all
of
our
climate
crisis,
bringing
in
so
many
people
into
our
community
that
are
climate
refugees
that
we're
experiencing,
that
the
science
is
not
even
able
to
you
know.
Things
are
so
off
the
scale.
What
we
saw
in
tennessee,
17
inches
of
rain,
that
what
we're
seeing
in
the
northwest,
where
the
the
the
temperature
was
30
degrees
above
normal.
H
So
I
mean
there
it's
everything
is
like
out
of
control
in
terms
of
the
climate
because
of
how
we're
living
and
that
we're
not
really
addressing
that
issue,
and
that's
when,
because
we
are
in
that
crisis
and
when
we
are
dealing
with
displacement.
I
also
think
of
the
displacement
of
all
the
animals
that
are
are
at
risk,
our
our
pollinators,
and
we
have
to
really
think
about
that
in
terms
of
even
our
housing.
We
need
to
be
developing
programs
where
we're
growing
food
and
learning
to
take
care
of
nature
as
our
main
main
issue.
H
No
longer
economic
development
gross
domestic
product,
it
has
to
be
taking
care
of
each
other
and
nature
as
our
primary
goal,
and
that
doesn't
mean
giving
money
to
small
businesses,
because
that
is
a
an
abstraction
to
get
money
to
get
the
coin
so
that
you
can
have
housing
and
you
can
have
food.
We
need
to
get
back
to
basics
where
we're
providing
housing.
We
have.
We
have
it's,
not
housing,
but
I
think
providing
food
for
ourselves.
H
It's
called
agency,
that's
the
true
agency
and
to
give
the
coin
to
say:
yeah
you
go
work
in
a
restaurant.
You
go
get
covered,
you
know
and
we'll
give
you
the
coin.
I
mean
the
choices
people
are
having
to
make
now
are
between
life
and
death,
because
you
know
I
I
need
food
and
I
need
clothing
and
shelter
and
I
got
to
get
this
coin,
but
I
have
to
expose
myself
to
covet.
So
we
need
to
have
everything
more
direct.
H
It
needs
to
be
back
to
basics,
and
that's
where
I
say
we
need
to
buy
this
property
at
615
stockton
avenue
as
a
as
a
demonstration
project
of
growing
food
and
everybody
needs
to
grow
food.
I've
talked
to
my
neighbor
who's
from
the
filipina
she's
a
filipina.
She
says:
that's
how
it
is
in
the
philippines.
Throughout
the
whole
curriculum
k
through
12,
you
are
learning
to
grow
food.
Isn't
that
smart?
Isn't
that?
Doesn't
that
make
sense
that
we
do
that?
And
yet
we
don't
do
that.
The
basics,
we're
not
learning
the
basics.
H
L
There's
no
getting
out
of
this
there's
no
way
you're
going
to
be
able
to
put
a
band-aid
on
the
ridiculous
rent,
moratoriums
you're
not
going
to
be
able
to
do
it.
It's
not
going
to
happen.
You're
not
going
to
ever
be
able
to
have
enough
low
income
housing
in
a
place
where
houses
that
cost
1.2
million
dollars
are
fixer
uppers.
It's
not
going
to
happen
and
the
people
who
are
in
line
to
get
to
the
free
or
cheap
housing.
They
know
somebody.
L
So
what
you're
trying
to
sell
is
something
that
isn't
there
and
remember
who
told
you
caller
five
one:
four:
zero
right,
there's
no
amount
of
taxation
or
government.
What
you're
gonna
have
three
four
different
layers
of
government
giving
money,
so
you
can
have
a
crappy
little
apartment
or
what
it's
not
gonna
happen.
L
It's
not
gonna
happen
you,
you
are
fooling
the
public
you're
you're
it.
It's
not
gonna
happen.
You
guys
are
not
planning
this
out
correctly
and
joe
biden
is
not
gonna
help
you,
you
see
how
he
helps
people
not
very
well,
and
you
voted
for
him
pam.
You
voted
for
him
and
you're
gonna
see
what
the
federal
government
does
for
you.
Absolutely
nothing,
because
they
already
have
your
votes.
They
already
have
you
figured
out.
They
already
have
they've
already
brainwashed
you
enough
to
keep
voting
forms.
L
They
don't
have
to
give
you
anything
if
they
give
you
something
it's
going
to
be
the
crumbs
that
nancy
pelosi,
maybe
maybe
kicks
down
to
santa
clara
county
after
she
gets
done.
Helping
all
of
her
friends
in
san
francisco
and
sonoma,
but
you'll
see
there'll,
be
no
housing
for
anybody.
There
won't
be
anything
for
anybody,
because
no
one's
going
to
be
able
to
live
here
or
afford
to
live
here.
People
who
are
medical
doctors
can't
live
here.
How
is
somebody
who
has
a
minimum
wage
job
supposed
to
survive
here?
It's
not
going
to
happen.
L
F
Yes,
paul
from
the
horseshoe
first
of
all,
thank
you
for
the
exclusion
of
the
bell
councilwoman
foley,
the
for
councilwoman
esparza,
thank
you,
you're
you're
centering,
the
conversation
you're
you're,
you're,
being
as
delicate
and
as
as
as
diplomatic
as
you
possibly
can.
I
sense
that-
and
I
just
want
to
extend
my
gratitude
to
you
for
trying
to
sound
the
warning
bell
about
what
it
is
that
we're
actually
dealing
with
that
meeting
that
happened
last
week.
We
already
have
right
now
the
emergency
policy
set
in
place.
F
The
dude
said
straight
up
the
next
12
months.
We
are
going
to
be
in
this
mode,
which
means
they
know
they
know,
and
that
was
a
warning
right
there
in
last
week's
meeting.
Now
with
that
said
what
my
question
to
the
to
the
to
to
jackie,
kristen
and
reagan,
and
thank
you
for
the
report
and
and
the
analysis,
but
has
there
been
any
analysis
with
respect
to
a
house
building
moratorium?
F
F
My
question
to
the
housing
department
is:
has
there
been
any
analysis
with
respect
to
the
possibility
of
having
a
housing
moratorium
with
respect
to
all
the
developers
so
that
the
city
can
can
acclimate
to
the
the
the
housing
stock
now
and
and
so
that
it
so
so
that
it
could
breathe,
because
the
acceleration
is
going
to
increase
exponentially
in
the
next
five
years?
There's
going
to
be
at
least
an
exodus
of
150
000
people
leaving
this
leaving
the
city
and
most
of
them
chicanos
mexicanos,
latinos
and
negros.
G
All
right,
roy
beekman
here,
thank
you
for
this
item.
Yeah.
Thank
you
for
the
words
of
council
person.
As
far
as
we've
got
a
new
lambda
variant
going
starting
apparently,
and
we
do
have
a
pretty
tough
fall,
we're
gonna
have
to
watch
ourselves
carefully.
This
isn't.
May
this
isn't
the
wonders
of
may,
but
thank
you.
Thank
you
for
your
work
and
efforts.
G
I
think
it's
always
important
that
I
need
to
state
for
items
like
this,
that
you
know
for
the
counties
of
santa
clara
and
alameda
90
days
after
december,
31st
2021,
that's
when
the
eviction
moratorium
ends
in
those
two
counties.
Counties
have
a
certain
precedence
over
state
eviction,
moratoriums
thing
so
march.
2022
is
the
when
the
eviction
moratorium
ends
for
santa
clara
county
and
alameda
county.
Now
it's
from
that.
I'm
understanding
that,
because
of
the
state,
there's
some
state
eviction
moratorium,
things
that
are
ending
at
the
end
of
september.
G
That
means
that
owners
can
can
sue
tenants
at
that
time
and
that's
what
jackie
and
the
housing
department's
gonna
really
hustle
and
try
to
figure
stuff
out
at
the
local
level.
How
that
doesn't
have
to
happen?
Good
luck
on
those
efforts,
as
I've
tried
to
say,
good
luck
in
you
know.
As
a
city
council,
we
can
a
vote
to
you
know
for
emergency
measures
at
that
time
to
make
emergency
ask
with
30
seconds
left.
G
G
I
F
I
I
I
I
Okay,
so
we've
seen
okay,
I
just
want
to
understand
the
ratios
so
of
what
we
at
least
have
accessible.
Thus
far,
we've
had
requests
for
about
half
of
it,
and
then
we've
deployed
a
little
more
than
a
third
of
that,
and
do
we
know
just
out
of
curiosity
kind
of
roughly
relative
to
the
need.
I
mean
my
sense
was
that
even
if
we
deployed
every
last
dollar,
we
would
be
far
short
of
the
need,
so
we're
they're.
I
So
I'm
sort
of
thinking
of
this
as
a
giant
funnel
there's
all
the
folks
who
need
the
assistance,
there's
how
many
you've
actually
applied
and
then
there's
how
many
have
gotten
dollars
and
I'm
just
I'm
curious.
Maybe
we
don't.
Maybe
we
have
to
do
this
now
because
be
complicated.
You
may
not
have
all
the
data,
but
it
would
be
interesting
to
think
of
it
as
a
funnel
and
understand
where,
where
we
can
have
the
biggest
impact
on
getting
more
more
dollars
out
to
more
people,
it
sounds
like
we're.
Still.
O
I
Cool,
that's
great
yeah.
Remember
we
discussed
that
at
council
recently
and
that
that
was
coming.
So
that's
that's
exciting.
I'm
looking
forward
to
seeing
that.
Okay,
that's
great!
Well,
I
know
it's
not
easy,
so
I
appreciate
all
the
work
trying
to
get
those
dollars
out
the
door
I'll
I'll
wait
for
the
info
memo.
I
I
do
think
it's
I'm
sure.
We
all
know
this.
I
think
it's
probably
the
most
important
thing
we
can
get
right
this
year
to
avert
a
local,
a
crisis
for
so
many
people,
okay
and
then
on
copa.
I
E
Yes,
thanks
councilmember
the
stakeholder,
the
advisory
group,
the
larger
group
we've
consistently
been
seeing
30
to
40
people.
It
started
out
a
little
bit
bigger.
So,
for
instance,
we
had
a
couple
of
business
groups
come
at
the
beginning
and
then
they
realized.
This
was
about
residential
and
they
didn't
come
back.
E
We're
encouraging
we're
trying
to
also
strike
a
balance
of
the
types
of
voices
there,
but
still
open
it
to
the
public.
So
we've
been
happy
that
we've
had
a
consistent
participation
level.
I
think
it
went
slightly
under
30
this
time,
but
it
is
reportedly
vacation
time
for
many
right
before
school
starts
or
around
that
time.
So
we
think
it's
going
to
pick
up
again
in
september.
I
Okay,
great,
I'm
really
glad
to
hear
that
and
then
I'm
curious
for
the
for
the
existing
market
participants,
for
whom
this
would
be
a
change
of
process.
Do
we
have
a
sense?
Can
you
tell
us
a
little
bit
about
at
a
high
level
what
you're
hearing
from
them,
so
so
for
the
property
owners,
landlords
brokers,
for
whom
we'd
be
imposing
a
new
process?
Do
we
know
how
they're
feeling
about
that?
At
this
point.
E
I
Yeah,
no,
I
think,
that's
really
interesting
feedback.
I
mean
the
small
landlords
as
well.
I
mean,
I
guess,
I'm
just
curious
for
for
people
who
are
currently
out
there
buying
selling
owning
property
we're
we're
talking
about
some
new
requirements.
I'm
just
always
curious
to
hear
what
they
see
as
the
the
impacts
and
potential
unintended
consequences
or
if,
if
this
makes
a
lot
of
sense
to
them
and
they
don't
that
they
embrace
it,
I'm
just
curious
to
get
kind
of
a
flavor
for
what
kind
of
we're
hearing
so
far.
E
If
it's
a
just
a
small
building,
would
they
have
to
come
up
to
speed?
And
you
know
what
would
that
outreach
look
like?
What
would
that?
How
would
we
work
on
that
together?
If
you
know
not,
just
local
entities
would
need
to
know
about
this,
but
also
those
who
might
come
in
from
outside
of
the
market
and
and
how
would
we
do
that
outreach
later
on?
E
How
could
we
make
sure
that
the
process
doesn't
get
interfered
with
you
know
by
somebody
else,
kind
of
coming
in
and
just
like
lobbing
some
ridiculous
offer
in
the
middle
of
something
like
that's
not
at
all
what
we
intend.
That
is
something
we
would
be
designing
to
prevent,
and
so
the
conversation
again
is:
how
can
the
offers
be
credible?
E
A
I
I
I
A
J
Thanks,
I
I
wanted
to
start
on
just
since
councilmember
man
holds
slide
four.
I
just
wanted
to
offer
a
comment,
which
is,
I
think,
it's
tremendous
work
within
our
county
city
folks,
who
have
been
able
to
get
out
almost
as
much
money
as
the
state
effort
with
far
less
people,
but
it
shows
we're
closer
to
the
ground.
The
other
thing
that
shows
where
we're
close
to
the
ground
and
that's
reflecting
actual
needs
is
I'm
always
really
moved
by
how
the
our
local
rental
assistance
efforts
have
mirrored
coven
cases.
J
So
these
zip
codes
are
the
hardest
hits
of
codes
for
covid
and
they're
the
zip
codes
that
are
getting
the
most
rental
assistance,
and
so
it's
just
it
to
me.
It's
just
another
indicator
that
our
our
partnerships,
the
our
process,
is
working
that
we
are
in
those
neighborhoods
we're
listening
to
folks
that
need
it,
and
so
I
just
wanted
to
comment
on
that.
I
had
a
couple
of
questions
on
slide.
Six,
you
mentioned
capacity
for
legal
services.
J
I
had
a
question
on
the
legal
services
slide,
so
it
says
legal
services,
nonprofit
partners,
limited
capacity.
I
hear
that,
all
day
every
day
in
my
district
as
well,
can
you
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
how
we're
adding
capacity
to
that?
You
mentioned
the
contract
with
the
law
foundation.
What
what
exactly
is
that
is
that
added
capacity
look
like.
O
We
just
last
week
came
to,
I
guess,
a
conceptual
agreement
with
the
law
foundation
on
what
it
will
look
like
and
how
much
it
will
cost.
But
it's
a
pretty
big
ramp
up
there
be
hiring
attorneys,
they'll
also
be
hiring,
or,
I
should
say,
adding
capacity
to
supervise
pro
bono
efforts,
because
we
know
that's
an
area
where
I
think
we
can
utilize
existing
resources,
but
it
does
take
some
management
to
you
know
oversee
people
who
are
doing
pro.
J
D
O
Attorneys
so
they'll
be
adding
about
12
new
attorneys
and
for
the
law
foundation.
That's
very
significant
right,
huge
yeah,
three
supervisors
they'll
be
adding
five
community
housing
advocates
a
case
manager,
and
this
is
in
addition
to
that
support
for
the
pro
bono
work.
So
it's
like.
I
said
it's
about
a
40
rep
ramp
up
of
what
legal
services
they're
currently
offering.
O
J
O
It's
definitely,
I
don't
think
it's
someone,
that's
it's
not
an
attorney,
so
it's
not
someone,
that's
representing
them
in
court,
but
I
don't
because
this
is
conceptual
council
member,
I'm
not
sure
I
can
talk
to
the
specific
of
like
what
okay
all
right.
I
won't
put
you
on
the
housing
advocate
what
their
job
description
is.
We
haven't
gotten
that
far
yet
so.
J
So
I'll
give
you
my
two
cents
just
because
my
again,
my
community's
been
hard
hit
as
you,
the
housing
department's
very
well
aware
of
some
of
the
nutty
stuff
that
has
gone
on
in
in
my
district.
One
of
the
things
that
I'm
interested
in
is
seeing
who
can
actually
provide
legal
assistance?
I'm
not
sure
having
somebody
hand
out,
and
I
don't
know
if,
if
this
is
or
what
it
is
or
is
not,
but
I'm
not
sure
somebody
handing
out
flyers
or
telling
somebody
what
their
rights
are.
J
If
we
don't
have
the
bodies
on
the
other
end,
to
enforce
those
rights.
To
me,
that's
more
important
because
I
see
situations
where
you
know
there
are
people
who
definitely
are
doing
things
that
they
know
they
shouldn't
be
doing
and
they're
doing
them
anyway,
because
where
you
know,
there's
very
little
enforcement
right
there
and
there
and
there's
a
lot
of
fear
and
uncertainty
in
the
community.
And
there
are
some
bad
actors
who
are
taking
advantage
of
that.
J
Not
by
any
means
is
that
the
majority
of
landlords
who
are
doing
that,
but
we
know
who
they
are
and
that's
where
we
need
some
additional
support,
and
so
my
concern
is
that
we
make
sure
that
we
have
actual
attorneys
who
can
actually
help
folks
that
need
it
to
to
keep
them
from
you
know
having
their
rights
violated,
and
so
so
I
did
want
to
throw
that
out.
I'm
happy
to
see
a
big
increase
in
that.
J
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
it's
going
to
enforcing
those
rights,
not
necessarily
like
community
outreach,
is
great.
We
have
everybody
has
their
strengths
and
weaknesses
and
and
fortunately,
in
the
pandemic,
we've
seen
organizations
that
have
been
just
incredible
at
doing
outreach
in
in
the
community,
especially
in
hard
hit
neighborhoods
and
that's
been
great,
but
they
can't
do
legal
work.
O
N
D
O
C
J
J
J
J
E
M
So
I
think
actually
our
attorneys
advised
us
to
not
make
it
just
to
isolate
the
one
category,
but
really
to
be
broader,
because
there
could
be
some
concerns
by
just
offering
one
benefit
to
one
group
and
not
been
not
offering
it
to
another.
And
so
yes,
we
will
look
at
it
more
broadly
than
just
the
homeless
appointment.
K
E
Yes,
I
can
take
that
thanks
councilmember.
This
report
was
verbal
and
going
forward.
I
think
we're
going
to
be
doing
all
written
reports
so
that
members
of
the
public
can,
if
they
miss
this
or
don't
want
to
watch
a
video,
can
quickly
go
pull
down
a
memo
and
get
an
update.
So
the
next
quarter,
which
I
think
is
scheduled
for
november,
would
be
with
a
written
memo
and
then
and
then
thereafter.
K
Okay,
thank
you
very
much.
Yeah,
there's
just
a
lot
of
obviously
material
here
and
I
appreciate
you
putting
together
the
powerpoint
slide,
but
there's
definitely
a
lot
to
cover
and,
and
it
would
be
nice
to
have
something
in
writing
to
reference
back
to
so
that
was
it.
Thank
you.
I
appreciate
the
update.
B
Thank
you.
I
I
agree
with
having
this
in
writing.
It's
very
helpful
when
it
is,
I
just
have
a
couple
of
questions
regarding
copa
and
also
about
the
rental
disbursement
assistance,
but
so
reagan
I'll
start
with
that.
The
rental
disbursement,
it's
a
slow
process-
and
you
mentioned
that
a
couple
of
the
stumbling
blocks
are
the
completing
the
application.
B
Is
it
a
matter
of
having
documentation
to
sit
down
with
you
or
sit
down
and
complete
the
application,
or
does
it
require
input
from
several
parties
and
the
application
applicant
isn't
getting
the
cooperation?
What
what's
the
number
one
issue
at
the
at
the
application
level
that
you're
seeing
is
the
issue,
and
how
can
we
help
resolve
that.
O
O
They
may
not
have
a
traditional
lease
or
their
income
is
sort.
They
may,
for
example,
clean
houses
and
their
income
may
go
up
and
down.
So
it
takes
a
bit
of
time
to
kind
of
figure
out
what
what
their
income
is.
So
it's
really
the
people
who
can
work
with
these.
You
know
really
vulnerable
households
who
may
need
just
that
additional
support
to
get
that
application
in.
So
that
is
why
the
county
has
added
disaster
service
workers
redeployed
from
their
day,
jobs
to
help
people
complete
applications.
O
We
have
taken
those
temporary
employees
who
were
working
at
vaccine
sites.
They
are
now
housing
department,
employees
and
our
staffing,
the
city
hall,
help
center,
as
well
as
the
franklin
mckinley
help
center,
and
we
have
made
a
request
to
our
eoc,
since
it
is
reactivated
to
also
get
some
redeployed
city
employees
to
come
and
help
with
application,
completing
applications.
B
Thank
you
I
can
imagine.
The
application
process
is
intimidating
to
anyone,
because
it's
a
level
of
bureaucracy.
You
have
to
have
access
to
the
to
the
internet
in
order
to
process
your
application,
and
then
you
have
to
have
confidence
or
the
desire
or
will
to
believe
that
you're
going
to
get
some
funds
and
assistance
through
this.
So
I
can
imagine
there's
a
lot
of
frustration,
so
the
the
savvy
tenant
may
be
able
to
navigate
the
system
or
if
they
have
someone
in
their
home,
who
is
savvy
and
can
help
them
through.
B
You
know
would
be
helpful.
For
me
is
if,
and
and
maybe
for
my
colleagues
is
to
see
what
is
required
at
application.
Just
is
there
a
checklist
that
you
could
send
to
us
without
too
much
difficulty?
That
would
be
really
helpful.
I'd
just
like
to
see
what
kind
of
things
we're
asking
for
people
so
that
when
we
get
asked
about
rental
assistance
that
we
can
say
hey,
you
should
have
these
documents
ready
for
you,
because
those
are
the
ones
you're
going
going
to
need.
B
B
B
B
Yeah,
okay,
then
you
also
mentioned
that.
Oh,
I
remember
another
question
about
a
qualified
tenant.
If
you
rent
a
room
in
a
home,
you
may
not
have
a
rental
agreement
or
a
lease
yet
you're
unable
to
pay
your
rent,
and
so
your
landlord
isn't
getting
your
rental
income.
Are
you
do
that?
Would
they
qualify
and
what
kind
of
documentation
would
they.
M
O
B
B
You
had
mentioned
that
you're
going
to
have
some
sort
of
the
details
worked
out
by
by
in
october
or
general
october
timeline.
Is
that
when
it's
coming
back
to
council,
it
was
my
understanding
that
we
would
see
the
design
elements
and
the
implement,
implementations
and
approve
that
before
it
went
out
to
the
public.
Is
that
still
the
expectation.
B
E
We
had
not
in
our
outreach,
banned
any
size
unit
from
discussion,
although
the
city
council
direction
is
to
look
carefully
at
five.
To
fifty,
I
wanted
to
do
was
to
ask
questions
to
know
enough
that
5
to
50
is
the
best,
and
you
know
if,
for
some
reason
we
thought
that
that
should
be
tweaked
a
little
bit.
We
would
have
the
rationales.
B
That's
helpful
because,
initially,
when
this
work
came
to
us
and
then
forward
to
council
to
look
at,
I
had
always
considered
it
would
be
mid-range
developments
and
not
single-family,
because
if
you're
dealing
with
single-family
you're
also
dealing
with
town
homes
and
condominiums
as
rentals,
so
and
and
what's
good
and
and
while
they're
more
affordable
that
doesn't
really
get
to
the
housing
need
of
multi-family
dwellings,
it
it
helps,
but
it
doesn't
get
to.
The
final
need.
Okay!
B
J
J
It
just
reminded
me
how
important
the
work
of
the
help
center
is
and
that
there
are
going
to
be
pop-ups
right,
because
I
think
we
can
help
people
so
much
and
then
we
have
to,
I
think
refer.
We've
been
referring
folks
to
non-profit
partners,
but
I
think
that's
what
makes
the
work
of
this
help
center.
So
important
is
people
there's
so
many.
You
know.
Non-Traditional
situations
and
people
have
a
lot
of
questions
and
paperwork
and
there
are
going
to
be
other
pop-ups.
Is
that
correct
spriggan
throughout
city?
J
So
I
think
it
just
shows
how
important
that
work
is
because
there's
so
many
people,
and
so
many
situations
that
make
people
fall
through
the
cracks
and
we're
in
the
lucky
position
of
being
able
to
help
them.
We
just
need
to
get
through
whatever
that
barrier
is
whether
it's
signing
a
form
or
bringing
some
paperwork
or,
being
you
know
anyway,
it's
hugely
important
work.
So
thank
you
for
highlighting
that.
That's
it.
Thank
you.
B
E
B
H
Thank
you
very
much,
okay,
so
I'm
an
alarmist
and
it's
a
good
thing,
because
it's
very
alarming
what
is
happening
to
us.
The
everything
is
off
the
scales
and
what
it
means
is
that
the
scientists
are
all
saying
it's
off
the
scales
it's
out
of
their
range
when
we
have
17
inches
of
rain
in
tennessee
and
30
degrees
anomaly
in
the
northwest.
H
So
what
that
is
showing
is
that
all
of
us
are
vulnerable,
as
the
science
is
saying
it
over
and
over
that
we
are
all
vulnerable
to
the
climate
crisis,
because
our
climate,
it
looks
really
nice
out
there,
but
it's
not
going
to
be
that
way
and
we're
not
preparing
and
that's
you're
talking
about
resiliency.
But
it's
not
happening.
It's
all
bs,
because
resiliency
does
come
from
urban
sustainability
and
we
have
to
start
growing
food
locally
and
we
have
to
start
putting
our
mouth
with
our
our
money
where
our
mouth
is.
H
And
you
know
when
we
talk
about
equity,
we
do
have
to
look
at
the
places
that
have
the
fossil
fuels
have
impacted
the
pollution
that
is
impacted
and
grow
the
food
locally
there,
because
that
is
the
only
it's
called
an
ecological
economy
that
we
need
and
that
it
needs
to
be
hyper
local
and
we
have
all
our
needs
met
by
our
ourselves
and
our
neighbors.
Now
that
doesn't
support
our
your
capitalist
capitalistic
nightmare
that
you're
creating
that
we
have
to
get
back
into
buying
back
into
driving
back
into
going
into
the
restaurants.
H
That
is
a
nightmare,
and
that
is
not
leadership
and
you
are
not
protecting
us
from
harm,
which
is
your
only
job,
not
not
supporting
the
people
that
are
paying
for
your
campaigns,
the
restaurant
tours
or
the
small
businesses
or
whatever
the
large.
It
has
to
be
about
resiliency
for
the
people,
and
that
is
what
we
have
to
get
back
to
basics
and
it
is
about
creating
the
model
of
growing
food
locally
and
and
then
all
of
your
neighbors.
You
know
you
provide
for
yourself
and
anything.
H
You
need
you
get
from
your
neighbors
and
that's
the
way
they
do
it
in
hawaii
they
come
with
their
food.
We
become
producers,
not
consumers,
that's
what
we
have
to
become
and
that
we
all
need
to
learn
how
to
produce
our
food.
So
we
can
barter
and
trade
and
get
the
varieties,
but
on
all
the
other
needs
we
need
locally
without.
F
I'm
reading
a
definition
from
the
smithsonian
museum,
the
self-serving
concept
of
manifest
destiny,
the
belief
that
the
expansion
of
the
united
states
was
divinely
ordained
justifiable
and
inevitable
was
used
to
rationalize
the
removal
of
american
indians
from
the
native
homelands
in
the
minds
of
white
americans.
The
indians
were
not
using
the
land
to
its
fullest
potential.
We
used
the
word
catalyze
or
activate
today,
as
they
reserved
large
tracts
of
land
of
unspoiled
land
for
hunting,
leaving
the
land
and
cultivated.
F
If
it
was
not
being
cultivated,
then
the
land
was
being
wasted.
Americans
declared
that
it
was
their
duty,
their
manifest
destiny,
which
compelled
them
to
seize
to
murder
and
to
codify
into
law.
The
legal
removal
of
native
americans
from
their
land,
not
surprisingly,
the
most
active
supporters
of
manifest
destiny,
and
proponents
of
indian
removal
were
those
who
practiced
land
speculation.
F
Land
speculators
bought
large
tracts
of
land,
with
the
expectation
that
the
land
would
quickly
increase
in
value
as
more
people
settled
in
the
west
and
demand
for
the
western
land
increased
end
quote
now.
I
think
that
we
can
see
some
parallels
within
this
context,
and
this
this
was
a
mindset
that
happened
in
1846
here
in
this
city,
and
so
when
we're
talking
about
equity,
okay
equity
doesn't
mean
giving
district
nine
the
same
benefits
as
district
five
or
district
seven.
L
You
hear
all
these
words
and
they
it's
like
out
of
a
college,
sophomore
social
science
class,
trying
to
think
of
the
more
words
that
the
other
words
oh
bike
lanes,
road
diets.
That's
my
favorite
one
road
diet,
gonna
create
more
traffic
with
these
road
diets
and
I
know
pam
you're
into
the
road
diet.
I'm
not,
and
I
I
heard
paul
talk
a
little
bit
about
district
nine.
He
should
move
to
district
nine.
He
can
see
how
wonderful
it
is
under
under
pam,
foley's
leadership.
L
Yeah.
It's
it's
not
a
great
place
paul
it
may.
It
may
seem
cool,
but
I
go
to
your
neighborhoods
to
have
some
fun
and
go
to
decent
restaurants,
and
you
know
go
to
some
decent
stores.
We
don't
have
any
here
for
sure
this
place
is
dolesville.
You
actually
paul
would
hate
it.
If
you
lived
here,
it's
not
just
for
white
people,
but
yeah.
I
mean
these
meetings
that
you
have
it's
the
same
story.
He's
pam
has
called
me
a
broken
record.
Pam
you're
the
biggest
broken
record.
I've
ever
heard
in
my
whole
life.
L
You
could
throw
up
an
hour
full
of
hot
air
better
than
I
can
and
that's
saying
something,
that's
really
saying
something,
but
I
mean
we
got
the
potholes
the
burned
out
buildings.
Your
your
staff
knows
nothing.
Your
staff
never
gets
back
to
me.
They're
too
good.
You
got
a
bunch
of
queens
working
down
there
I
swear
to
god.
There
is
one
good
staff,
member
shirley's,
really
nice.
I
talked
to
her
the
other
day,
she's
a
good
person.
