C
B
C
A
quorum
great,
thank
you.
We
don't
have
anything
on
the
work
plan
to
review
and
we
don't
have
anything
in
the
consent
calendar.
So
I'm
just
going
to
move
into
the
reports.
The
first
report
is
the
city
report:
citywide
planning
activities,
it's
a
verbal
status
report.
We
hear
this
report
quarterly
and
I
understand
that
michael
brio
and
martina
davis
will
be
giving
this
presentation.
A
A
A
We
have
two
urban
village
plans
that
we
received
a
grant
funding
some
time
ago
that
have
yet
to
start
one
one
is
the
southwest
expressway
ray
street
urban
village
and
the
other
is
the
alum
rock
east
urban
village
just
mind
you.
There
are
three
urban
villages
at
allen
rocks,
so
it
gets
confusing
sometime,
but
this
is
the
last
one
that
that
still
needs
to
be
done.
Excuse
me,
there's
two
urban
villages
in
alamo.
This
is
the
last
one.
A
It
needs
to
be
done
and
the
southwest
is
anticipated
to
be
initiated
in
the
fall
of
this
year
with
planned.
A
Completion
in
the
spring
of
2024
alum
rock
east
is
planned
to
begin
the
public
process
about
this
time
next
year,
with
planned
completion
in
the
fall
of
2024.,
I
will
admit:
we've
had
very
much
challenges
getting
these
off
the
ground,
particularly
with
the
the
process
to
bring
consultants
on
on
board,
which
has
been
a
very
lengthy
process
just
in
terms
of
getting
rfps
out
there
due
to
staffing
constraints
that
we're
having
administratively,
but
also
because
consultants
are
not
responding
to
rfps,
they're,
very
busy
and
so
we're
having
we're
actually
rethinking
the
process
in
terms
of
not
using
consultants
anymore,
at
least
not
for
these
two
plans
going
forward
and
doing
it
in-house
not
entirely,
but
mostly
entirely.
A
Next
slide,
okay,
and
so
they,
the
two
other.
Technically,
these
are
urban
villages,
but
they
fall
under
the
stationary
planning
team.
We
have,
if
you
may
recall,
as
part
of
the
four-year
review
of
the
general
plan
update
process.
A
new
urban
village
called
the
capital
caltrain
station
area
was
approved
by
council.
A
It's
in
council
district,
seven,
it's
on
monterey,
highway
adjacent
to
the
capital,
caltrain
train
station,
so
that
process
we
have
funding
to
do
that
process
through
a
leap.
I
think
it's
leap
or
reap
grant.
I
think
it's
leap
grant
and
we
have
a
procurement
process
underway
for
consultants
there.
We
are
not
really
using
consultants
a
whole
lot
in
this
village.
To
be
frank,
we're
going
to
do
primarily
in-house.
A
A
Approximately
the
other
stationary
planning
process
that's
occurring
is
the
five
wounds
update
and
then
keep
in
mind
that
the
five
wounds
is
a
term
used
collectively
for
four
urban
villages,
which
include
five
wounds,
24th
and
william
street
little
portugal
and
roosevelt
park
so
based
on
the
work
that
was
done,
which
we
were
part
of
with
vta,
was
the
the
playbook
for
the
five
wounds
28th
street
bart
station
and
as
a
result
of
that
process,
it
made
a
number
of
recommendations
about
how
to
increase
opportunities
for
development
in
the
specifically
the
five
wounds:
urban
villages,
as
well
as
some
of
the
surrounding
urban
villages.
A
A
Actually,
san
jose
vta
they're
hiring
a
a
body
of
consultants
to
do
work,
related
access
and
mobility
parking,
as
well
as
doing
an
analysis
and
coming
up
with
strategies
related
to
displacement
displacement
of
people
from
their
homes
and
how
to
mitigate
that,
as
well
as
displacement
of
small
businesses,
because
there's
a
lot
of
small
independent
businesses
in
this
area
in
both
industrial
and
kind
of
retail,
certain
service
services
as
well
that
could
be
displaced
if
market
forces
are
just
left
to
run
their
course,
and
so
that's
a
big
part
of
that
process.
A
Then
we
have
funding
through
a
reap
and
leap
grant
to
update
the
land
use
plan.
Look
at
if
there's
any
tweaks
needed
related
to
urban
design
specific
for
this
village
and
then
on
top
of
that,
vta
is
doing
a
a
whole
planning
process
designed
for
development
process
for
the
actual
station
site
itself.
So
all
three
of
those
processes
are
being
done
concurrently
and
in
coordination.
A
Secondarily,
we
also
needed
to
create
zoning
districts
for
urban
village
and
mixed
use
and
high
density
type,
zoning
districts
or
general
plan
designations.
I'm
sorry
that
conform
to
those
general
plan
designations
because
we
didn't
have
currently
or
at
the
time
we
didn't
have
zoning
districts
that
actually
conform
and
implement
the
general
plan.
That
work
was
done.
A
It
was
approved
by
council
in
may
of
last
year,
so
we're
on
the
phase
two
and
phase
two
is
is
really
just
about
rezoning,
roughly
12,
15
or
so
thousand
properties
in
the
city
that
have
a
zoning
district
that
does
not
align
with
the
actual
general
plan
designation
for
that
given
property
and
that's
in
progress.
A
I
just
want
to
note
that,
as
part
of
this
process,
the
city
got
senator
former
senator
jim
bell
to
sponsor
a
bill
which
is
largely
written
by
martina
davis.
Who's
coming
up
next
called
sb
940
that
allows
us
flexibility
in
doing
down
zonings,
where
we
can
bank
up
zoning
capacity,
and
we
can
then
use
that
bank's
up
zone
capacity
to
conduct
down
zonings
later
on
for
the
purposes
of
aligning
our
gen.
Our
zoning
with
our
general
plan,
so
that
work
is
con,
is
ongoing.
A
As
you
see,
we
have
a
number
of
hearing
council
dates
that
are
planned
in
april
two
in
april,
and
one
in
may
to
rezone
about,
looks
like
about
800
properties,
eight,
almost
900
properties
in
the
city
and
we'll
be
continuing
to
do
this
work
through
the
rest
of
the
year.
A
We
are,
we
are
anticipating
that
we
will
complete
all
the
needed
down
zonings
in
the
city
by
january
31st
of
next
year.
That's
the
date
by
which
we
need
to
we
by
the
date
by
which
we
need
to
complete
that
work.
If
we
want
to
take
advantage
of
that
state
law
sb940
that
gives
us
flexibility
for
down
zonings
with
up
zonings.
A
We
also
anticipate
by
january
31st
of
next
year
that
we
will
enter.
We
will
be
able
to
rezone
or
we'll
have
completed
rezonings
for
most
of
the
growth
areas
in
the
general
plan
next
slide,
and
with
this
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
martina
davis.
D
All
right,
hello,
everybody,
martina
davis,
I'm
the
acting
division
manager
in
our
city-wide
planning
group.
I'm
very
happy
to
be
here.
So
a
real
quick
touch
on
our
ordinance
and
policy
work.
We
have
going
so
sb9,
starting
with
that
one.
As
you
probably
recall,
we
brought
an
urgency
ordinance
to
council
in
december
that
was
adopted,
so
we
do
have
some
standards
on
the
books
now,
for
that
build
that
we're
using
these
are
just
our
baseline
standards.
It's
something
that
we
you
know
to
use,
because
the
bill
is
in
fact
effective.
D
We've
also
worked
to
update
our
application
forms
and
place
materials
on
our
website.
We
have
a
couple
checklists
one
for
subdivision,
one
for
building
additional
units
modeled
after
our
adu
checklist,
so
they
should
be
helpful
to
customers.
I'm
trying
to
figure
out,
you
know:
does
my
property
qualify?
What
can
I
do
under
this
bill?
Those
are
on
our
website
and
our
next
phase
of
work
on
this
is
to
work
on
a
set
of
comprehensive
standards
for
sb9
in
our
city,
which
would
be
developed
with
a
significant
amount
of
community
outreach.
D
It
we
also
you
know,
as
directed
by
council,
would
explore
expanding
it
to
the
r2
zones
as
well
as
coming
up
with
a
unique
set
of
criteria
that
would
allow
historic
properties
to
be
able
to
add
density
while
still
being
sensitive
to
the
historic
nature,
and
we
are
working
on
staffing
and
work
plan
for
that.
D
We
expect
that
work
to
begin
in
earnest,
probably
in
late
spring
or
summer
of
this
year,
we
did
get
initial
approval
from
the
state
to
use
some
of
that
either
leap
or
reap
grant
money
that
we
were
planning
to
allocate
to
opportunity
housing
to
this
work
so
that
we
can
maybe
get
some
outside
consultant
resources
as
needed.
Using
that
grant
funding.
D
D
That's
a
policy
work
to
update
our
pqp
public
quasi-public
zoning
and
general
plan
designations
to
allow
places
of
assembly
to
build
100,
affordable
housing
as
an
incidental
use
on
their
property,
and
we
do
think
that
the
bulk
of
the
people
who
will
be
using
this
bill
would
be
religious
assembly
as
they
a
lot
of
them,
tend
to
have
extra
land
and
are
looking
to
do
their
part
in
helping
solve
the
housing
crisis.
D
So
we
kicked
off
outreach
to
that
work.
This
for
that
work.
D
This
past
summer,
we
held
a
general
community
meeting
to
just
kind
of
introduce
people
to
what
we're
thinking
get
some
initial
feedback,
and
then
we
also
had
a
focus
group
with
affordable
developers
and
then
one
with
assembly
users,
so
we're
taking
that
feedback
into
account
when
we're
kind
of
continuing
the
work
on
this,
where
we're
at
now
and
what's
really
going
to
be
driving
the
timeline
is
the
sql
work
for
this
policy
update
because
we
are
looking
at
allowing
more
housing
in
places
that
housing
wasn't
already
anticipated.
D
D
What
I
don't
want
to
do
is
spend
three
months
figuring
out
how
to
save
two
months,
so
we're
going
to
try
to
be
cognizant
of
that,
but
that's
where
we're
at
with
this
work
and
and
depending
on
where
that
lands
we're
thinking
late
this
year
or
early
next
year,
we
would
have
that
ready
to
council.
D
The
final
one
I'll
talk
about
is
yes
on
school
land,
a
similar
policy
work,
where,
if
schools
have
extra
excess
property
that
they're
looking
to
convert
to
housing,
it
would
be
creating
a
fast
track
for
them
to
convert
to
100,
affordable
housing.
That
worked.
We
did
begin
outreach
last
year,
it's
been
on
hold
due
to
some
staffing
challenges,
and
so
we
looks
like
we'll
be
resuming
that
next
year,
so
in
2023.
D
And
okay
and
I'll
end
with,
I
think
my
favorite
slide,
which
is
our
accomplishments
in
latch
we
from
last
year.
So
we
did
all
you
know.
We
have
a
lot
ahead
of
us,
but
we
did
get
a
lot
done
last
year
and
michael
touched
on
some
of
it.
These
first
two
on
the
list,
new
citywide
design,
guidelines
and
standards,
as
well
as
the
new
zoning
districts.
D
I
can't
underscore
kind
of
how
major
those
two
documents-
those
two
pieces
of
work
are:
we've
never
really
had
standards
that
reflect
the
levels
of
density
and
the
type
of
projects
that
we've
anticipated
in
our
general
plan,
and
we
finally
do.
We
have
design
guidelines
that
are
not
based
on
what
development
should
look
like
in
1995.
C
C
Okay,
I
I
do
now
blair
beekman.
E
Hi,
what
have
you
been
here?
Thank
you
for
noticing
my
hand
with
this
report.
You
know
I
I
guess
it
was
a
version
of
what
was
spoken
at
the
february
10th
neighborhood
services
and
education
committee
meeting.
They
were
fairly
comprehensive
in
asking
questions
about
what
to
expect.
There's
many
variations
of
this
future
fair
housing
policy.
There's
some
awesome
ideas,
claire.
C
E
The
future
of
the
urban
village
planning
issues
urban
village
planning
is
starting
to
really
come
around
and
moving
into
high
gear.
But
with
that
said,
I
I
don't
think
what
eric
schoenhauer
the
developer
often
tries
to
say
at
public
comment
time:
it's
it's
not
a
time
that
we
learn
to
fast
track.
E
Urban
village
housing,
urban
village
housing
has
to
go
slow,
as
I
keep
trying
to
warn
yourselves
with
all
the
important
subsidies
we're
receiving
for
low
income
housing
at
this
time.
This
very
possibly
wants
to
start
to
be
used
for
high-end
developers
and
their
urban
village
planning
and
they're
not
going
to
be
planning
for
for
low
and
extremely
low
income,
but
you're
going
to
say
that
you
are
and
it's
going
to
be
highway
robbery.
Basically,
it's
we're
just
going
to
be
stuck
in
another
crime,
ridden
system
of
big
government.
E
You
know
dominating
and
taking
over
money.
That's
meant
for
low-income
people,
so
really
work
on
the
efforts
to
make
this
fair,
the
future
of
urban
village
planning
and
open
and
and
understandable
for.
F
Hi,
thank
you.
I
just
wanted
to
respond
to
a
couple
things
that
were
mentioned
verbally
in
this
report
as
a
person
who
lives
in
an
urban
village
and
is
deeply
affected
by
it
and
some
of
the
zoning
changes
and
the
general
plan
and
all
of
that
uproar
that
happened
over
mobile
homes.
We're
still
stressed
about
that
we'd
like
to.
I
would
personally
like
to
know
what
exactly
this
sb
940
is.
I
haven't
heard
about
this.
I
need
to
do
research.
F
Excuse
me,
where
you're
got
the
ability
now
to
have
some
sort
of
flexibility
from
doing
down,
suiting
and
banking,
it
so
that
you
can
up
zone
elsewhere
and
so
forth,
and
I
think
all
of
this
talk
that
starts
with
sb
375
and
then
it
went
to
sp35
it
had
to
do
with
the
mtc
and
a
bag,
and
I
did
all
this
research
and
I've
been
ready
and
willing
to
be
a
part
of
an
urban
village
plan
here
at
oak
ridge,
but
things
change
so
often
and
it's
become
so
complicated
that
I'm
personally
frustrated.
F
I
just
wanted
to
say
that
out
loud,
I'm,
I'm
I'm
guessing
that
in
40
years.
Maybe
then,
when
the
oak
ridge,
village
plans
start
there'll,
be
three
more
state
bills
and
I'll
be
likely
equally
as
confused
as
well.
I'd
like
to
focus
100
at
this
time
in
making
sure
that
the
conversation
around
displacement,
that's
going
to
end
up
being
mobile
homes,
whether
it's
going
to
end
up
being
lower
density
properties.
F
The
state
should
be
involved,
developers,
state
city,
everybody
in
paying
people
to
have
a
safe
landing.
Thank
you.
C
G
Thank
you,
chair
fully.
I
I,
I
guess
my
question.
My
first
question
at
least
was
around
sb9
and
the
reference
to
expanding
into
historic
neighborhoods
and
I'm
curious.
Do
we
have
a
is
that
a
explicit
choice
that
we're
making
is
there
maybe
a
rationale
to
waiting
to
see
how
implementation
of
sp9
goes
elsewhere?
A
Well,
I
I
can
say
that,
when,
when
we
took
the
emergency
ordinance
to
council
that
the
the
recommendation
that
we
made
to
staff
was
to
explore
allowing
sb9
type
housing
in
r2
zoning
districts
where
the
state
law
did
not
does
not
facilitate
it
in
r2
and
also
to
explore
how
you
could
have
a
win-win
by
having
a
historic
preservation
and
allow
more
flexibility
for
more
housing
units
within
on
historic
properties
or
historic
or
districts
or
conservation
areas.
The
council
did
give
us
direction
to
explore
that.
So
decisions
have
not
been
made.
G
Got
it
okay
that
helps
clarify
and
then,
as
you
explore,
potential
application
to
historic
districts
are.
How
are
you
doing
engagement
with
community
to
get
some
some
initial
kind
of
input
and
insight
from
folks
who
are
in
historic
districts
and
obviously
organized
around
the
preservation
of
our
historic
neighborhoods.
A
Yeah
so
one
well,
we
haven't
developed
an
actual
outreach
strategy
yet,
but
we
recognize
that
you
know
that
that
engaging
that
community
is
going
to
be
key.
You
know
I
just
want
to
be
clear
what
our
goal
is
to
create
a
win-win.
I
know
that's
kind
of
a
cliche,
but
what
term
use
overuse,
but
we
really
our
goal
is
to
is
to
do
his
is
successfully
preserve
historic
resources
and
see
if
there's
a
way
to
also
allow
housing
and
not
creating
a
situation
where
more
housing
destroys
historic.
G
Yeah
yeah,
that's
really
important.
I
appreciate
you
saying
that
I
understand
the
aspiration.
I
also
know
there's
just
a
lot
of
concern
and
I
think
there's
a
lot
of
fear,
so
I
think
that
upfront,
community
engagement,
will
be
be
important
on
that
one
and
then
the
other
question
I
had
was
just
more
broadly,
as
you
were
talking
through
urban
village
plans,
michael
and
and
outside
consultants,
first
versus
bringing
it
in
and
the
timelines
for
these
things,
I'm
just
curious
over
the
years.
G
What,
if,
if
anything,
have
we
learned
about
how
to
streamline
the
planning
side
of
this?
Are
there?
Are
there?
Are
there
strategies
we
can
use
to
make
it
a
little
less
time
consuming
to
do
the
planning
of
these
urban
villages,
maybe
build
in
more
flexibility
up
front
and
allow
for
more
definition
over
time
or
they're?
I'm
just
curious
if
you've
come
across
any
strategies
that
would
allow
us
to
move
faster.
A
For
example,
a
lot
of
those
things
are
better
addressed
at
a
city-wide
level,
for
example
city-wide
design
guidelines,
as
martina
mentioned.
We,
the
council
has
approved
those.
So
when
we
do
urban
village
planning
now
for
the
most
part,
we
don't
have
to
get
into
those
that
level
of
work
now
mind
you.
There
may
be
some
communities
that
have
specific
design
issues
or
needs
that
have
to
be
addressed,
but
that
would
be
more
of
the
exception
and
we
wouldn't
have
to
recreate
the
wheel
every
time
we
do
it,
so
some
of
that
work
has
been
done.
A
The
other
thing
that
I
think
really
can
be
done
is
just
making
really
establishing
a
clear
scope
of
what
we're
going
to
accomplish
with
the
urban
village
plan,
and
what
we
feel
is
the
most
important
part
of
the
plan
is
the
land
use
policies
and
the
landis
plan
itself
and
how
you're
going
to
grow
both
jobs
and
housing
and
how
that's
all
going
to
fit
together
and
so
really
just
being
very
clear
on
on
honing
in
on
the
key
things
that
need
to
be
done.
A
That
process
and
what
what
could
be
addressed
through
some
other
avenue
or
or
does
maybe
not
need
to
be
addressed,
and
I
think
that's
one
of
the
things
we've
had
a
conversation
recently
with
mtc
and
a
bag
staff
related
to
the
southwest
expressway
grant,
because
when
you
apply
for
grant
often
there
are
a
lot
of
things
that
you're
required
to
do
that.
You
may
not
otherwise
do.
A
But
the
grant
requires
that
you
have
to
do
that
and
so
one
one
thing
we
were
sort
of
starting
to
ask:
is
it
worth
us
applying
for
these
grants
if
they
require
you
to
do
all
this
other
work?
That
you
don't
think
is
needed
to
get
the
plan
done
quickly,
but
in
that
conversation
I
think
we
were
getting.
A
There
was,
I
think,
acknowledgement
from
the
abeg
mtc
staff
that
were
funding
us,
that
their
intention
is
not
to
make
these
processes
laborious,
and
so
we
talked
about
how
many
of
the
things
that,
for
example,
in
a
grant
that
we've
done
in
the
past
or
they
require
of
us-
are
being
done
by
other
efforts
in
the
city,
and
they
felt
that
that
probably
would
they're
going
to
confirm.
This
is
adequate
for
the
purposes
of
the
grant.
For
example,
dot
is
doing
a
lot
of
transportation,
work
they're
doing
these.
A
A
I
mean
a
lot
of
our
plans,
quite
frankly
have
taken
two
and
a
half.
Some
have
taken
three
years
for
various
reasons.
You
know
the
quicker
ones
easily
take
two
years
two
and
a
half
years,
so
that
the
time
frame,
we're
looking
at
with
a
stationary
plan
is
14
months
now
mind
you
that's
a
much
smaller
area,
but
something
else
to
consider
is
that
a
lot
of
the
plans
that
we've
done
have
been
larger,
more
complicated
areas
and
most
of
the
villages
that
are
larger
and
complicated.
A
Have
those
plans
have
already
been
done
most
of
the
ones
that
are
remaining
with
a
few
notable
exceptions?
Most
of
them
are
much
smaller
and
could
be
done
much
quicker
and
in
some
cases
we
think
we
could
consolidate
multiple
villages
into
one
process
and
they
could
be
done
a
lot
quicker.
The
exceptions
are
places
like
paseo
de
saratoga.
A
A
G
Okay,
thanks
michael
and
then
final
question
for
you
just
quickly.
It
was,
I
believe,
last
maybe
december,
when
we
had
our
had
a
discussion
about
urban
village
planning.
I
think
we
gave
some
direction
around
at
least
exploring
dedicated
staffing
as
part
of
this
budget
cycle.
I
just
wanted
to
check
in
on
that.
Is
that
your
understanding
is
that
something
we'll
be
talking
about
in
the
next
couple
months
here.
A
Yes,
we
have
put
together
a
budget
request.
We
looked
at
the
villages,
we
thought
were
the
most
market,
ready
that
actually
could
result
in
a
significant
number
of
units,
both
because
of
being
market
ready
and
because
of
the
size
of
the
villages
and
the
opportunities
they
present
yeah.
So
we
have
submitted
a
budget
request
for
that.
One.
A
To
add
one
more
thing
is
that
the
staff
themselves
are
really
they
want
to
get
these
plans
done
quicker.
So
it's
coming
internally,
it's
not
just
council
direction
or
feedback
from
the
development
community.
We
internally
are
frustrated
with
how
long
they
take,
and
so
it's
coming
with
within
and
we
so
we
really
are
completely
holistically
on
board,
with
trying
to
figure
out
a
really
an
effective
way
to
get
these
plans
done
in
a
more
streamlined
fashion.
G
Yeah
no,
I
appreciate
that
and
I
understand
the
staffing
constraints,
which
is
why
I
had
written
that
memo
last
november
december,
whenever
that
was,
I
I'm
looking
forward
to
seeing
that
budget
request
and
hope.
It's
hope
it's
something
we're
able
to
make
happen
this
year.
I
think
that
would
be
really
helpful.
Thanks
for
all
the
all
the
insight
michael
appreciate
it,
that's
all
I
had
sure.
H
Yeah,
thank
you.
Thanks
for
the
presentation
and
the
update
to
pick
up
on
just
the
last
topic
first
and
then
I'll
end
with
a
question.
H
I
know
from
from
experience
on
a
number
of
the
urban
villages
that
we've
had
now
in
in
district
three,
that
a
lot
of
that
that
delay
as
you
well
know,
michael,
comes
from
both
our
council
offices
wanting
to
have
robust
engagement
right
and
some
of
the
back
and
forth
on
individual
from
individual
parcels
to
blocks,
and
then
the
community
as
well,
and
I
would
say,
for
the
most
part,
the
you
know,
the
community
feedback
and
interest
is-
is
pretty
authentic
in
regards
to
wanting
to
participate
and
have
a
voice
and
be
able
to
help
shape
the
area.
H
But
every
now
and
then
you
end
up
with
some
inauthentic
interest
from
community
members
that
want
to
just
delay
the
process,
because
they
don't
want
to
see
development
happening
right,
densification
in
areas
or
or
you
know,
growth
or
higher
taller
buildings
right
next
to
their
their
single
family,
homes
or
whatnot.
And
so
I
think,
there's
just
a
myriad
of
challenges
that
we've
experienced.
H
But
I
I
do
know
staff
is
adapting,
especially
with
the
north
first
street
urban
village,
as
you
have
moved
much
more
quickly
than
than
traditional,
and
you
know
it
and
it's
you
know
I
think,
as
was
described
by
the
mayor
and
his
team
in
urban
village,
light
sort
of
process
or
package
coming
forward,
giving
us
an
opportunity
to
you
know
to
help
move
it
forward
more
quickly,
and
you
know
I
think,
we'll
have
to
iterate
with
where
there
may
be
a
need
to
do
so
on
some
of
those
plans.
H
But
I
appreciate
you
know
the
staff
trying
to
to
to
look
at
how
you
you
can
actually
speed
up
some
of
this
process
and
recognize
and
and
appreciate
council
member
mayhem
pointing
out
you
know
what
what
he
brought
forward
last
year,
which
is
the
dedicated
funding
right.
If
you
have
more
staffing
that
can
be
dedicated
to
really
pushing
these
projects
through,
you
know.
We
know
that
that's
the
case
with
a
lot
of
the
work
that
we
asked
staff
to
do.
H
It's
only
gonna
move
as
quickly
as
you
have
the
bodies
to
be
able
to
allow
it
to
move,
and
so
you
know
I'm
in
support
of
that
as
well.
The
question
I
had
was
in
regards
to
let's
see
here,
going
to
the
slide,
aligning
our
zoning
in
our
general
plan
and
I'm
looking
at
the
timeline.
There.
You've
got
several
hundred
properties
in
chunks
coming
forward
this
year.
H
A
But
there
are
a
lot
of
other
areas
in
the
city
where
it
was
just
it's
the
right
thing
to
do
and
we're
required
to
do
by
state
law
just
to
alleviate
confusion,
but
it's
not
a
growth
area
necessarily
or
you
know,
but
yeah
I'd
say
two:
two,
two
and
a
half
years
to
fully
wrap
it
up.
We
do
have
a
dedicated.
We
have
two
dedicated
staff
person.
One
is
a
peak
staff
or
consultant.
A
Another
is
a
city
staff
person,
they're
fully
just
plowing
forward
on
this,
and
so
you're
gonna
see
more
and
more
of
these
coming
forward,
and
it's
great
that
we
have
those
resources
that
they're
being
funded
by
a
grant.
I
should
mention
sb2,
so
it's
it's
outside
funding,
it's
funding!
It's
funding,
this
work.
We
do
have
city
funding
too.
I'm
not
saying
the
city
isn't
doing
as
well,
but
having
this
grant
funding
has
been
very
helpful
as
well.
H
Okay,
great
yeah,
thank
you
and
thank
you
for
your
work
on
that.
I
know
that
was
also
something
that's
popped
up
over
the
years
where
we
don't
see
that
alignment
and
a
lot
of
times
it's
you
know
one
parcel
here
and
there
and
but
it
but
it
it
can
really
cause
quite
a
delay.
And
so
I
know
it's
a
big
body
of
work,
though
appreciate
it.
That's
all
I
have.
I
don't
know
if
there
was
a
motion
or
if
we
need
one
to
approve
the
the
report,
but
I'll
make
that
motion.
C
C
You
I
didn't
want
to
cut
you
off.
I
do
have
a
couple
of
questions
and-
and
some
have
been
asked
so
I'll
just
follow
up
on
them
and
one
I'll
start
with
the
rezoning.
That's
a
long
process.
But
how
are
we
engaging
the
property.
I
C
That
whose
property
we
are
rezoning,
what's
the
process
that
we're
working
to
reach
out
to
them.
A
So,
as
a
matter
of
course,
we
notify
the
property
owners
as
well
as
people
and
martina
might
know.
I
think
it's,
I
think
it's
500
feet.
Radius,
I'm
not
sure
the
radius,
but
we
do
notify
people
within
the
radius
of
the
property
being
arizona
as
well
as
the
property
owner,
and
we
do
have.
We
do
have
meetings
so
far.
We
don't
have
a
lot
of
people
showing
up
both
property
owners
and
community
members.
A
So
there
seems
to
be
not
a
lot
of,
I
guess,
concern
in
in
the
rezonings,
but
we
do
notify
the
property
owners.
D
I'll
have
to
double
check
that
but
yeah
they
would
have
been
notified
at
this
point,
I'm
not
aware
of
any
feedback,
but
I'm
not
aware
so
they
would
have
contacted
the
the
team
directly
on
it.
So
I
can
look
into
that
and
give
it.
C
To
you
I'll
just
say
just
because
we
haven't
heard
from
them
doesn't
mean
they're
not
concerned
about
it.
They
just
may
not
know
it's
happening.
We
get
criticized
at
the
city
all
the
time
for
not
communicating
properly,
so
we
need
to
make
sure
that
we
use
every
tool
that
we
have
to
reach
out
to
property
owners.
C
I
should
I'd
want
to
know
my
property
was
being
rezoned
from
single
family
to
industrial
it
would,
it
would
be
a
big
deal,
but
if
I'm
just
getting
a
postcard
with
a
lot
of
legal
language
in
the
mail,
I'm
not
probably
going
to
pay
that
close
of
the
attention
to
it.
So
hopefully
we
can
distribute
something
or
spread
the
get.
The
word
out
a
little
bit
in
plain
language
so
that
they
understand,
what's
what's
going
to
happen,
that
their
property
is
owning,
is
going
to
be
changed
and.
C
C
The
other
questions
I
had
is,
and
and
michael
I'm
glad,
you
brought
up
the
displacement
of
businesses
because,
as
we
do,
these,
these
demolition
of
properties
and
urban
villages
are
created.
There
definitely
is
some
displacement
of
the
businesses,
even
though
they
may
be
able
to
relocate
into
the
commercial
space
once
rebuilt,
there's
still
two
three
years
or
whatever,
and
while
they
cannot
be
in
that
place,
while
the
construction
is
going
on
and
I'm
actually
thinking
of
my
project
in
cambrian
park
plaza
how
that
will
affect
those
small
business
owners.
C
C
C
The
expansion
takes
away
its
historic
nature,
so
I'm
I'm
very
concerned
that
that's
even
on
our
our
work
plan,
I
don't
frankly
recall
the
council
giving
that
direction.
That
doesn't
mean
we
didn't.
I
just
don't
recall
that
we
did,
and
actually
I
had
conversation
just
yesterday
with
some
residents
who
live
in
eichler's
in
district
9,
which
is
a
designated
historic
district
and
they're,
actually
very
happy
that
sb9
does
not
apply
to
them.
So
I
would.
I
would
be
very
concerned
that
we
are
proceeding
aggressively
on
including
exempt
historic
problems.
C
That
will
restrict
that
development's
ability
to
build
a
to
complete
to
have
an
sb9
conversion
in
their
development.
So
I
know
that's
happening
all
over
the
city,
so
I'll
just
leave
it
at
that,
because
that
that's
a
concern
of
mine
that
we're
even
talking
historic
properties
when
there
are
other
places
that
we
could
be
addressing
sb9.
C
C
The
other
thing
I
wanted
to
bring
up
is
the
the
s
the
yes
on
school
land
and
the
fast
tracking
is
of
that,
I'm
all
for
that,
I'm
all
for
the
fast
tracking,
but
the
question
I
have
and
something
I
want
to
throw
out
there
as
you're
discussing
with
this
with
the
school
districts.
Is
they
want
to?
Many
of
them
want
to
use
their
land
to
build,
affordable
housing
for
their
teachers
and
their
staffs,
which
they
can
do.
C
They
can
restrict
the
use
of
their
properties
to
renting
it
to
the
their
employees,
but
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
not
making
it
burdensome
for
them
to
do
that
if
they
want
to
build
housing
and
they
want
to
designate
their
housing
for
their
staff,
because
we
all
know
just
as
high
cost
of
housing
is
hitting
us
it's
hitting
educators
too
and
has
for
many
many
years.
So
I
just
I
also
want
to
throw
that
out
there.
C
That's
that's
the
end
of
my
questions,
I
think
other
than
I
really
appreciate
jill
borders,
talking
about
urban
villages
and
the
process,
and
it
is
complicated
and
it
takes
too
long.
So
anything
we
can
do
to
speed.
That
up
is
a
a
good
idea
and
will
allow
developers
to
complete
the
urban
village
plan
that
they
that
they
have
their
eyes
on
in
in
our
various
districts.
C
D
G
L
C
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Sometimes
I
forget
my
job
up
here.
So
the
next
item
is
related
to
our
parks
and
our
park
impact
fee.
This
is
an
update.
I
know
I
just
want
to
tomorrow
on
our
city
council
agenda.
Is
a
item
related
to
park
maintenance
report,
so
we're
not
going
to
be
discussing
the
park
maintenance
report
here.
This
is
about
the
impact
fee
and
and
the
park
fees,
but
tomorrow,
if
you
and
I'm
I
know
many
of
them,
particularly.
C
I
I
am
indeed
thank
you
councilmember.
Thank
you.
I
think
you
should
all
be
able
to
see
my
screen.
Yes,
okay,
nicole
burnham,
deputy
director
parks,
recreation,
neighborhood
services
and
with
me
I
have
rebecca
ross
who's
supervising
planner
with
us,
we're
here
to
just
give
you
an
update
on
our
review
of
our
park
fee
program.
It's
been
quite
some
time
since
this
this
program
has
been
evaluated
and
considered.
I
I
I
So,
first
to
talk
about
the
benefits
of
this
program
and
to
to
your
point,
councilmember
foley,
as
you
made
the
introduction
so
eloquently
to
us.
This
is
our
program
that
drives
new
park
construction
in
this
city,
so
the
graphic
you
have
in
front
of
you
is
still
draft.
I
It's
a
work
in
progress
and
it's
from
january,
so
you
can
see
the
council
boundaries
haven't
fully
been
updated
yet
either
the
team
hasn't
gotten
back
to
this,
but
just
to
give
you
an
idea
and
give
the
community
an
idea
of
the
impact
and
benefit
of
this
program
to
the
community.
I
This
map
alone,
which
we
know,
is
still
missing.
A
couple
of
parks,
has
28
parks
on
it
that
we
know
were
constructed
only
because
we
have
this
park
fee
program
and
this
impact
program,
and
this
is
the
program
just
to
give
a
little
bit
of
context.
This
is
the
program
wherein
prness
charges
develop
residential
developers,
a
fee
associated
with
the
number
of
new
residents
we
will
have
as
a
result
of
new
residential
development.
The
idea
is
that
everyone
needs
space.
Everyone
needs
open
space.
I
Everyone
in
the
community
needs
a
park,
and
so
you
know,
as
we
started
this
body
of
work,
the
question
that
I
had
with
the
team
is:
what
is
you
know?
What
have
we
gained
from
this
program?
So
the
answer
is
upwards
of
30
parks,
which
I
think
you
can
see
are
really
in
every
council
district
around
the
city
and
what
I
love
about
this
is:
there
are
parks
on
the
urban
floor
right,
they're,
not
outlying,
large
parks,
that
are
you
know,
five
or
six
acres,
which
of
course,
we
also
need.
I
But
a
lot
of
these
are
urban
infill
parks
in
neighborhoods,
where
I
don't
know
how
else
we
would
have
acquired
the
property.
What
you
see
on
this
screen
totals
about
104
acres
of
new
park
land
that
we've
secured
from
this
from
this
program.
I
M
Thank
you,
nicole,
I'm
rebecca
ross
senior,
planner
parks,
recreation
and
neighborhood
services,
and
so
before
you,
we
have
a
work
plan
that
we
presented
to
you
last
year
and
our
key
decision
points
that
we'll
be
presenting
to
eventually
to
the
parks
and
commission,
as
well
as
to
the
city
council.
So
we
want
to
align
with
larger
city
efforts
like
the
development
fee
framework.
We
want
to
be
able
to
have
fair
assessment
of
land
values
so
that
we
know
we
have
a
fair
fee
that
will
enable
us
to
acquire
new
land.
M
If
people
comply
with
our
ordinances
through
the
payment
of
fees,
we
want
to
comply
with
new
state
law.
That
includes
you,
know,
timing
of
payment
and
square
footage
fees,
and
we
are
looking
at
different
geographies
where
we
can
collect
and
collect
a
fee.
M
M
M
Weave
one
moment
there
we
go,
we've
held
one
virtual
community
meeting
last
fall
and
we
have
three
more
coming
up.
We
presented
an
overview
of
the
fee
study
to
spur
we've
also
presented
an
overview
of
the
fee
study
to
the
parks
and
rec
commission
to
the
developers
and
construction
roundtable,
the
seniors
commission,
the
youth
commission
and
the
neighborhoods
commission.
M
We've
created
a
very
robust
website
for
the
fee
study
itself,
as
well
as
well
as
all
public
outreach
efforts
and
also
being
very
transparent
with
our
task
force
meetings
where
anybody
can
go
in
and
watch
the
meetings
read
the
minutes
see
the
presentations,
and
today
we
haven't,
we
don't
have
recommendations.
We've
just
been
doing
a
lot
of
procedural
work
coming
up.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
we
have.
We
continue
to
engage
the
community
to
and
inform
them
where
we're
at
with
the
fee
study
next
slide
time
moves
fast
in
san
jose.
M
So
since
I've
created
this
timeline
for
this
presentation
to
be
posted
here
and
to
be
shared
with
the
public,
the
timeline
has
changed.
So
we're
going
to
be
posting
a
new
draft
timeline
on
our
webpage.
That
is
more
reflective
of
where
we
need
to
be
so
right
now
we're
aiming.
We
think
that
we're
aiming
to
have
another
community
meeting
in
may,
as
well
as
in
late
summer
and
early
fall.
M
We
want
to
return
to
ced
as
well
as
parks
and
rec
commission
and
the
youth
commission,
the
senior
commission
and
the
neighborhood
commissions,
also
at
the
end
of
the
the
summer
community
meetings
and
then
we're
hoping
to
be
able
to
make
a
presentation
and
a
recommendation
to
the
city
council
in
december.
C
E
Hi
claire
beakman,
here
I
was
going
to
mention
my
usual
about
the
importance
of
open
accountability
with
trails.
It's
possible
right
now,
at
this
time
with
chico's
doing
some
good
work
around
davis.
The
city
of
davis
is
doing
some
good
work
with
that,
but
that
wouldn't
be
quite
appropriate
to
this
item.
So
thanks
for
your
time,.
F
Thank
you.
I
just
I
thought,
first
of
all,
the
104
acres
of
park
land
that
is
there
that
otherwise
would
not
have
been
there.
I
thought
that
that
was
a
real
highlight.
Thank
you
for
that.
I
had
a
question
of
that
are
104
acres
of
parkland.
Is
that
100?
F
You
know
residential
parks
owned
by
the
city
purchased
outright
kind
of
thing
that
we're
responsible
for
or
or
are
any
of
those
public
private
parks
included
like
in
developments,
for
example,
santana
row.
I
know
that
that
was
there
was
kind
of
a
deal
worked
out
there,
where
it's
sort
of
private,
but
it's
you
know
a
community
benefit.
So
I'm
just
wondering
if
someone
at
any
point.
I
know
you
can't
respond
to
my
comment,
but
that's
a
curiosity
that
I
had
thank
you.
J
C
J
J
I
don't
represent
you,
so
here's
the
thing
make
sure
that
the
fees
are
going
to
be
fair
to
these
people,
so
we're
able
to
have
money
for
it,
because
if
you
guys
start
cranking
fees
like
you
do
fees
and
fines,
it's
not
going
to
have
any
money.
You
wonder
why
there's
no
marijuana
money,
because
the
taxes
are
too
high,
but
this
city,
you
guys
you
guys,
think
everybody's
dollar
bills
in
their
pocket
are
yours.
C
C
Could
we
anyone
have
a
comment
or
question?
Oh,
I
will
follow
up
on
jill's
question,
which
was
the
parks
the
104
acres
are
any
of
those
public
are
privately
owned,
publicly
accessed.
B
The
last
caller
that
called
in,
I
think
it's
important
just
for
the
public
to
truly
understand
the
difference
between
the
public
paying
for
the
usage
of
the
parks
and
what
we're
discussing
here
today.
So
if
staff
could
be
crystal
clear
so
that
both
the
caller
that
just
called
in
as
well
as
the
rest
of
the
public
truly
understands
the
difference,
we're
not
talking
about
charging
folks
to
use
the
park,
we're
not
talking
about
an
entrance
fee.
B
I
think
I
think
you
know
if
we
were
discussing
that
we
would
have
an
entirely
different
conversation,
but
I
think,
for
I
think
it's
it
was.
Mr
mancini
caller
one
as
he's
like
being
referred
to
today,
is
a
little
confused
about
what
we're
discussing
here
today.
So
steph.
Could
you
just
please
be
crystal
clear:
let's
not
use
any
you
know
in
industry
language,
but
be
very,
very
clear
about
this,
so
that
we
don't
have
this
discussion
great
point.
Thank
you.
I
C
This
is
much
like
the
affordable
housing
fee
that
a
developer
might
make
to
I
to
pay
into
either
they
build
affordable
housing
in
their
project
or
they
pay
into
a
fund.
It's
very
similar
to
that.
But
it's
not
as
councilmember
crossco
mentioned,
and
I'm
glad
you.
You
brought
the
follow-up
question:
it's
not
a
use
fee,
it's
not
a
fee
to
access
the
park.
Council,
member
mayhem.
G
Thanks
chair
just
a
quick
informational
question
as
well:
nicole,
do
we
know
roughly
what
this
adds
to
the
per
unit
cost
of
construction.
I
We
do
not
yet
so
that
is
the
crux
of
the
study
right,
so
it's
that
is
the
crux
of
what
we're
doing
the
consultant
is
evaluating.
What
is
our
existing?
What's
the
current
fee?
What's
the
basis
of
that
fee?
What's
the
future
basis
of
the
figo
and
what's
the
implication,
so
I
think
the
next
update
you
see
with
us
will
be
pretty
meaty
because
ready
to
start
sharing
that
data
and
you'll
really
start
to
see.
You
know
what
the
influence
is
going
to
be.
E
C
K
I
am
up
first,
thank
you,
jackie
morales
friend.
I
am
the
director
of
housing
and
I'd
like
to
introduce
kristin
clements
who's,
the
division
manager
in
the
housing
department,
overseeing
our
policy
and
michael
you've
already
seen
earlier
today.
Who's
the
deputy
director
of
the
long
range
planning,
and
I
believe,
ruth
quinto
puedo-
is
also
going
to
be
with
us
today.
K
So
the
housing
department
presented
to
the
city
council
in
mid
2020
on
the
early
results
from
our
assessment
of
the
fair
housing
work
we
returned
to
nse
earlier
this
month
to
give
you
an
update
and
we
were
giving
you
a
similar
update,
which
we
just
did
to
them.
The
housings
affirmatively
furthering
housing
work
has
now
been
integrated
with
planning's
work
to
create
the
next
cycle
of
the
housing
element,
so
we're
very
excited
to
have
it
included
in
the
housing
element,
because
it
is
a
key
component
of
it.
K
K
Today,
we
want
to
give
you
an
update
on
how
these
two
initiatives
fit
together.
Our
progress
and
our
early
thoughts
on
strategies
that
could
be
integrated
into
the
housing
element
at
the
very
end,
you'll
see
our
updated
timeline
and
the
next
steps
for
this
project,
and
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
christian.
To
give
you
the
details.
K
I'm
going
to
jump
in
until
kristen
can
find
her
voice,
so
here
you
can
see
the
different
protected
classes
that
fall
under
our
fair
housing
work
and
on
the
next
slide
here
now
we're
just
zooming
through
the
presentation.
K
Back
to
the
protected
classes,
so
on
the
left,
you
can
see
all
the
protected
classes
that
fall
under
the
federal
guidelines
and
then
to
the
right.
You
can
see
californians
the
california's
protected
classes,
they
cover
the
federal,
but
they
are
awful.
They
also
extend
and
provide
additional
rights
to
protected
classes
outside
of
the
federal
law
and
it
we
should
note,
because
I
can't
help
myself
but
san
jose
is
one
of
the
very
few
large
cities
that
don't
doesn't
have
our
own
fair
housing
law
that
protects
people.
K
So
the
assessment
of
fair
housing
and
the
strategies
that
overcome
barriers
are
now
required
to
be
part
of
the
housing
element,
and
this
was
a
law
that
was
passed
in
2018..
K
K
So
part
of
the
work
is
in
identifying
patterns
of
integration
and
segregation
at
both
the
neighborhood
and
regional
level.
We
look
for
racially
or
ethnically
concentrated
areas
of
poverty.
We
use
the
data
to
do
that
and
then
we
look
at
how
does
this
create
disparities
in
in
terms
of
access
to
opportunities
and
then,
lastly,
how
it
impacts
our
housing
needs
and
where
we
see
disproportionality
in
our
housing
needs.
A
Jackie
this
is
my
slide.
Don't
worry
I'll
pick
it
up
if
you're
doing
great
I'll,
just
kick
back
for
a
bit.
I'm
kidding
yeah,
so
michael
rio
here
so
just
a
reminder.
So
the
housing
element
is
one
of
the
seven
required
elements
of
our
general
plan.
It's
part
of
our
general
plan
in
most
cities,
it's
a
separate
chapter
in
the
general
plan
in
our
city,
it's
kind
of
more
integrated,
but
it's
it's
and
it's
one
of.
A
I
think
it's
the
only
one
that
we're
required
to
update
on
a
periodic
basis,
so
for
us
mo
actually
all
cities.
Now
you
have
to
update
your
housing
element
every
eight
years,
so
the
last
housing
element
we're
currently
living
under
now
was
called
cycle
five
and
we
had
arena
number
of
30.
We
had
35
000
housing
units
that
we
have
to
plan
for
and
the
new
cycle.
Six
housing
element
which
we
are
working
on
right
now
requires
us
to
plan
for
about
sixty
two
thousand
housing
units.
A
So
it's
a
little
less
than
and
double
so
it
is.
It
is
part
of
our
general
plan,
it's
the
policy
framework
for
how
we
are
planning
for
and
are
going
to,
facilitate
and
achieve
housing
for
all
income
categories,
with
a
particular
building,
65
62
000
housing
units
over
the
next
eight
year
period
from
2023
to
what
is
that
2031?
A
I
think
yeah.
So
so
as
part
of
that
process,
we
do
an
assessment
of
a
needs
assessment
of
housing.
Looking
at
the
demographics,
employment,
housing
trends
and
conditions
that
could
affect
the
needs
of
our
of
our
population,
both
the
the
projected
new
population,
but.
A
We
also
have
to
evaluate
our
past
performance
under
our
current
existing
housing
element,
how
we've
done
where
we
need
to
improve
and
where
we've
been
successful,
how
we
might
change
some
courses
to
actually
build
in
san
jose's
case,
as
in
most
cases
in
in
the
state
cities
are
having
challenges.
Building
the
affordable
housing,
the
market
rate
typically
is
built,
is
achieved.
A
Now,
for
a
number
of
reasons,
we
need
to
have
a
buffer
of
roughly
probably
about
15
000
housing
units
more
than
that,
so
we'll
be
planning
for
close
to
80
000
housing
units
or
sites
that
can
accommodate
up
to
80,
000
housing
units
and
yeah,
and
so
there'll
be
specific
sites
which
will
be
public
in
the
summer.
People
can
look
at
them,
we'll
be
identifying
sites
for
different
densities
for
affordable
as
well.
A
A
key
component
of
this
process,
which
is
even
more
critical
or
there's
more
emphasis
on
this
than
past
housing
elements
is
community
outreach
and
engagement,
and
it's
really
in
part
tied
to
furthering
fair
housing,
and
so
the
state
has
requirements,
and
we
plan
to
conduct
robust
outreach,
focusing
on
traditionally
underrepresented
groups
that
are
typically
not
part
of
these
planning
processes.
A
Another
aspect
of
the
housing
element
is
to
do
a
constraint
analysis
under
understanding
what
governmental
constraints
and
also
non-governmental
constraints
act
as
barriers
to
housing,
development
and
recommending
remedies
that
can
remove
or
reduce
those
barriers
to
facilitate
housing
in
the
next
eight
years,
and
then
the
housing
element
develops
proposed
policies
and
programs
to
further
facilitate
or
achieve
the
housing
needs
that
are
identified
as
part
of
the
work
above
and
in
particular
programs
and
policies
that
will
affirmatively
further
fair
housing
to
create
more
equitable
integrated
communities
and
address
class,
past
racism
and
and
and
yes,
class
racism
next
slide.
A
I
think
this
goes
to
oh.
This
is
still
me
okay,
so
there
are.
I
just
want
to
note
there
has
been
a
state
law
that
was
passed
by
and
signed
by
the
governor
from
former
assemblyman
chu
in
san
francisco
that
took
effect
january
1st
2022.
A
In
some,
the
bill
effectively
reduced
the
timeline
that
we
have
to
complete
the
the
housing
element
by
70
days
by
requiring
additional
time
for
review
by
hcd
and
the
public,
and
so
that
that's
impacting
our
schedule.
So
it
we're
anticipating
it's
going
to
be
difficult
to
implement
and
meet
the
state's
deadline
to
complete
the
housing
element
on
january
31st
of
2023
next
year,
and
so
we're
we're
evaluating.
A
You
know
how
we,
how
can
we
streamline
the
process
or
you
know,
move
quickly
through
the
process
while
also
doing
a
they
really
the
amount
of
work
that
needs
to
be
done
for
outreach,
not
just
because
the
state
is
telling
us.
We
need
to
do
it
because
it's
the
right
thing
to
do
to
outreach
to
underrepresented
communities,
and
so
you
know
we.
I
think
we
need
to
do
that.
Work
and
and
that's
something
that
that
we
really
cannot
cut
out.
A
O
O
I
was
just
going
to
say
that,
as
we
think
about
the
strategies
and
the
policies
and
programs
that
we
want
to
create,
there's
a
long
list
that
we
started
with
and
we're
going
to
be
getting
community
feedback
and
we're
going
to
be
getting
your
feedback.
And
but
you
know
we
have
to
think
about
how
do
we
focus
on
the
strategies
that
are
going
to
be
the
final
ones?
We
know
that
they
have
to
be
both
and
which
is
how
the
state
puts
it.
O
So
when
we
think
about
what
should
go
into
the
housing
element,
we
know
that
they
have
to
be.
You
know,
kind
of
in
all
three
p
areas,
as
we've
talked
about
production
preservation
and
protection.
O
O
O
What's
the
impact
on
equity
and
the
way
that
the
state
looks
at
equity
for
the
ones
that
we
end
up,
selecting
so
we're
going
to
go
through
a
refinement
period,
with
lots
of
input
as
much
as
possible
in
an
abbreviated
timeline
from
stakeholders
and
residents
and
then
best
practices
policy
organizations
have
been
putting
out
their
thoughts
as
well.
O
And
with
that
I'll
say
that
there
are
four
categories
that
seem
likely
at
this
point
that
that
strategies
could
fall
into,
but
again
we're
going
to
be
identifying.
You
know
larger
broad
strategies
and
then
policies
and
programs
that
fit
under
them.
But
we
know
from
the
guidance
that
there
are
these
four
areas
do
need
to
be
covered.
So
for
now
we're
using
these
as
the
category
buckets.
If
you
will
and
then
again
we'll
be
asking
for
public
input
to
help
prioritize
and
refine
as
well
as
others.
O
So
thinking
about
these
four
areas
is
also
a
good
place
to
know
you
know:
fair
housing
is
about
access
of
protected
class
residents
to
housing,
but
the
housing
elements
about
is
about
housing
for
everybody
right.
It's
about
affordability,
so
there's
crossover
with
a
lot
of
protected
classes.
They
need
affordable
housing,
but
you
know
we
have
to
think
really
broadly
about
serving
the
whole
community,
but
still
focus
on
making
sure
folks
who
are
the
most
vulnerable
or
that
you
know
that
the
law
tells
us
to
focus
on
are
served
adequately.
O
What
are
the
places
people
are
renting
and
how
can
we
further
production,
as
we
talked
about
in
barriers
a
little
bit
early,
and
this
is
about
different
products
and
different
price
points
and
different
locations
as
well,
if
you're,
really
thinking
about
it
comprehensively
to
meet
everyone's
needs,
the
second
bucket,
I
know
that
council
has
given
us
some
direction
about
what
they'd
like
us
to
explore.
So
it's
it's
kind
of
stated
in
that
way.
O
Here
the
tricky
thing
about
law,
fair
housing
law,
it's
both
designed
to
prevent
discrimination
against
certain
kinds
of
folks,
but
also
it
prevents
us
from
specifically
creating
programs
for
certain
kinds
of
folks.
You
know
so
we
couldn't
roll
out
just
you
know
a
home
ownership
program
for
african-american
borrowers
without
a
lot
and
a
lot
of
findings
and
our
lawyers
being
comfortable
and
I'm
not
sure
that
they
would
get
there,
but
we
can
think
about
what
would
the
programs
need
to
look
like
to
serve
everybody?
O
How
can
we
target
market
and
kind
of
what
are
the
needs
in
the
home
ownership
space,
both
both
access
to
home
ownership,
but
also
the
products?
Are
we
building
enough
products
that
can
be
used
for
home
ownership
as
well?
O
However,
we
know
in
diverse
communities
in
lots
of
places
in
california,
including
san
jose,
that
doesn't
that
frame
doesn't
make
as
much
sense
as
it
does
in
other
places,
and
so
the
state
has
said
they
are
refining
what
these
racially
concentrated
areas
of
affluence.
O
What
the
definition
could
look
like
for
our
state
and
they
said
they're
going
to
be
releasing
that
data
layer
to
us
soon,
but
really
this
is
about
how
do
we
get
access
to
areas
of
higher
opportunity
in
our
community,
and
one
of
the
things
that
we
have
been
working
on
as
a
city
together
is
is
like
a
subset
of
that
right,
which
is
where
should
we
place,
affordable
housing
so
that
whole
citing
policy
conversation
is
an
example
of
access
to
areas
of
higher
opportunity.
O
So
we
have
to
think
again
about
how
do
we
invest
in
neighborhoods
and
how
do
we
identify
those
that
are
underinvested
and
and
have
a
high
proportion
of
people
of
color
and
a
high
proportion
of
very
low
income,
very,
very
low
income
people
extremely
extremely
low
income
people?
So
there's
a
certain
standard
that
the
state
and
feds
tell
you
to
aim
for
has
a
particular
definition
linked
to
federal
poverty
level.
O
I
found
this
on
the
web,
and
that
is
that's
something
that
we
will
use
here
because
it's
required,
but
we
could
also
expand
it.
We
really
we
should.
You
know
one
of
the
possible
strategies
in
this
is:
how
does
the
city
think
about
kind
of
coordinating
investments
and
prioritizing
certain
areas
both
for
capital
investments
and
then
also?
What
came
up
at
nse
was
programs
as
well
delivery
of
programs,
so
it
actually
has
a
overlap
with
where
we
can
use
our
federal
funds
from
hud.
O
I
think
many
of
you
have
seen
this
map
from
our
council
update
mid
last
year.
This
is
a
dot
map
that
indicates
where
people
of
different
race
and
ethnicities
live
and
again
one
dot
is
75
people.
O
You
can
see
the
orange
dots
that
these
residents
are
white,
non-hispanic,
largely
in
the
west
and
southwest
area
of
the
city,
and
the
blue
dots
represent
hispanic
residents
and
purple
asian
and
pacific
islander
who
are
not
hispanic.
O
Those
neighborhoods
that
we're
told
to
focus
in
the
circle
highlights
the
census
tracts
that
fall
into
that
category
and
again
we
have
75
percent
of
the
census
tracts
in
the
county,
they're
only
eight,
and
we
have
six
of
them
that
count
as
these
recap
areas,
and
that
this
slide
does
a
little
blow
up
of
those
areas.
So
we're
not
limited
to
thinking
about
prioritizing
these
neighborhoods,
but
you
know:
if
we
get
more
neighborhoods
in
areas
of
priority,
then
we
make
more
decisions
about
resources
and
how
to
direct
them.
O
So
these
are
our
recap:
neighborhoods.
We
are
going
to
be
doing
outreach
to
residents
in
these
areas
as
we
refine
our
strategies
and
with
the
help
of
partners
are
already
talking
to
community-based
non-profits
that
work
with
residents
in
these
areas,
among
others,
and
with
that,
I
will
give
it
to
ruth
to
talk
about
our
timeline
and
our
next
steps.
B
Our
plan
is
to
bring
it
back
to
the
full
council
in
june,
before
the
break,
with
key
content
of
the
draft
plan
and
then
submit
to
the
state
for
the
very
first
time
for
their
review.
We
also
expect
that
the
first
response
letter
from
the
state
is
going
to
be
rather
lengthy.
That's
been
the
experiences
of
other
cities,
specifically
southern
california,
that
they're
sort
of
most
of
them
are
done
with
the
process.
B
But
we
anticipate
that
we're
going
to
have
lots
of
points
to
follow
up
on
after
the
state
reviews
are
our
first
draft
and,
as
you
can
see,
then
you
know
we
also
anticipate
a
second
submission
to
the
state,
and
hopefully
that
will
be
the
the
last
of
it
in
terms
of
the
state's
feedback
and
we
will
set
it
for
several
commission
hearings,
including
airport
landings,
commission
planning,
commission
city
council,
and
with
that
we
are
happy
to
take
your
questions
and
comments.
C
L
Good
afternoon
committee
members,
my
name
is
kalisha
webster
and
I'm
a
housing
advocate
for
people
with
developmental
and
other
disabilities,
with
housing
choices
for
over
25
years.
Housing
choices
has
advocated
for
increased
accessibility
to
affordable
housing
for
people
with
developmental
disabilities
living
in
santa
clara
county,
in
addition
to
providing
housing,
navigation
and
retention
services
funded
by
the
san
andreas
regional
center
to
the
special
needs
population.
L
We
appreciate
the
robust,
robust
community
engagement
process,
which
went
into
developing
the
assessment
of
fair
housing
and
housing
element
strategies
being
presented
to
you
today.
This
is
an
extremely
important
topic
for
the
community.
We
serve
as
federal
state
and
local
data
shows
that
the
overwhelming
majority
of
fair
housing
discrimination
cases
are
based
on
disability
and
newly
emerging
data
has
shown
that
a
person
of
color
with
a
disability
faces
increased
barriers
to
finding
and
maintaining
safe
and
stable
housing
than
either
person
of
color
without
a
disability
or
person,
or
a
weight
person
with
a
disability.
L
As
you
consider
this
report,
we
urge
you
to
consider
what
it
truly
means
to
create
housing
that
is
accessible
to
people
of
all
abilities,
while
universal
design
and
ada
development
standards
increase
access
for
people
with
physical
disabilities
for
a
person
with
a
cognitive
or
behavioral
impairment.
The
key
to
accessibility
are
the
coordinated
support
of
services
needed
to
live
independently
in
the
community.
E
Hi,
thank
you,
blair,
beekman.
Here
thanks
a
lot
for
this
item.
As
I
tried
to
say
in
my
first
public
comment,
this
was
spoken
at
neighborhood
services
and
education
committee
meeting
february
10th.
It
has
an
incredibly
good
memo
that
describes
the
that
outlines.
The
future
of
fair
housing
practices
it
wants
to
work
towards
is
an
awesome
list
that
I
think
we
should
all
review
and
understand,
and
it's
just
our
decency
is
as
how
we
can
work
as
a
community.
E
Thank
you.
I
hope
you
like
with
the
previous
meeting
on
on
february
10th.
I
hope
you
can
have
a
robust,
constructive
conversation
today
about
the
fair
housing
ideas.
I'm
glad
mike
is
here
from
planning.
E
E
You
know
we're
talk,
we're
trying
to
learn
to
talk
more
about
mixed
income
ideas,
we're
learning
to
how
can
that
subject
be
more
and
more
open
and
clear,
because
I
think,
as
you're
talking
about
fast
tracking,
the
urban
village
designs,
you're
going
to
have
to
involve
mixed
income
ideas
and
you're
going
to
have
to
involve
how
extremely
low
and
very
low
income
can
work
well
with
with
more
moderate
income
levels
in
the
future,
and
we
have
to
learn
how
to
have
those
conversations
openly,
we're
too
afraid
to
still-
and
I
think
in
a
few
years
time
we'll
be
more
open
to.
E
Why
not
take
the
effort
now
to
make
that
a
more
open
conversation
for
ourselves
and
thanks
for
your
time,
I
mean
it's,
it's
really
important.
We
work
on
extremely
low
and
very
low
income
for
our
future
and
not
sell
it
short.
Thank
you.
F
Hi,
thank
you.
I
just
wanted
to
comment.
I'm
glad
that
the
planning
department
mentioned
that
our
housing
element
is
sort
of
embedded
into
the
general
plan.
I
find
that
to
be
very
interesting,
and
I
have
made
over
time
a
lot
of
observations
that
I
just
have
suggestions
and
I
that
I'd
like
to
see
so,
for
example,
in
this
particular
map,
where
you
discuss
the
racial
categories
here
in
san
jose.
F
What
might
be
beneficial
to
add
to
our
general
plan
is
to
converge
to
maps
and
have
a
racially
categoried
map,
that
is
in
alignment
with
the
concept
that
we
have
of
growth
around
transit
areas,
because
my
experience
has
been
that
people
of
color,
low-income
people,
disadvantaged
people,
people
with
disabilities,
are
those
that
are
already
living
along
transit
lines
and
using
transit.
That's
actually
certainly
my
case
and
where
we
always
chose
to
live
by
transit
because
we
didn't
either
have
a
car
or
we
were
low
income
and
needed
to
share
a
car
and
so
forth.
F
I
also
found
that
to
be
the
case
when
I
was
helping
the
people
that
were
being
displaced
in
the
winchester
urban
villages
that
entire
neighborhood
every
house
I
knocked
on
a
person
of
color
a
person
with
a
disability.
You
know
all
different
sorts
of
categories
where
they
were
already
the
people
struggling
according
to
what
we've
identified
here
as
people
with
challenges
or
additional
things
they
have
to
deal
with
so
and
those
are
the
actual
neighborhoods
that
we're
seeking
to
redevelop
eventually.
F
And
so,
although
we
talk
about
production
and
preservation
and
so
forth,
the
reality
is
that
they
converge
these
maps.
So
if
we
could
have
a
map,
the
racial
racially
categoried
map
overlay,
the
map
of
where
we
have
our
intended
targets
of
redevelopment.
I
think
that
will
be
eye-opening
and
important
to
take
a
stark
look
at.
Thank
you.
C
J
Yeah,
thank
you
and
I
apologize
just
moving
rooms.
There's
a
new
baby
sleeping.
J
Thank
you.
Congratulations.
J
Thank
you,
so
I
just
I
I
know
this
is
a
big
body
of
work
for
housing
and
appreciate
the
update,
and
it
was
news
to
me
to
hear
the
briefing
a
couple
weeks
back
from
jackie
in
regards
to
that
the
state
law
2018
that
has
changed,
how
we're,
obviously,
how
we're
having
to
report
this
and-
and
so
I
recognize
that
the
timing
on
that
and
the
robust
canadian
book
that
is,
is
always
necessary,
but
how
that's
going
to
move
forward-
and
I
had
this
conversation
with
you,
jackie,
so
just
wanted
to
be
able
to
bring
it
up
here
on.
J
What
can
we
do
if
anything,
to
offer
some
support
for
your
team
to
be
able
to
get
this
work
done
right
in
a
timely
fashion,
whether
it's
you
know
speeding
up
that
timeline
that
you
gave
is
it?
Is
it
personnel
right
resources
that
we
can
be
able
to
provide,
or
is
it
taking
certain
things
you
know
off
of
the
table,
or
is
it
just
not
even
possible
right?
J
Is
this
timeline
just
kind
of
it's
necessary
and
kind
of
stuck
in
in
you
know
regards
to
what
is
needed,
anyways,
based
on
what
you
presented.
K
So
actually,
the
housing
element
is
both
housing
staff
and
planning
staff.
So,
on
the
housing
staff,
we
have
actually
made
a
decision
to
redirect
all
of
our
short-term
resources
towards
this
project.
So
our
policy
team
is
working
full
force
in
getting
the
housing
piece.
Our
responsibility
of
the
housing
element
done,
but
there's
also
a
planning
piece.
That
needs
to
be
done,
and
I
don't
know
if
ruth
or
michael
want
to
address
on
the
planning
side
what
you
all
are
doing.
A
A
A
You
know,
what's
happening
in
housing
market
in
san
jose
and
what
factors
are
affecting
where
and
when
housing
can
be
built
that
feeds
right
into
the
housing
element
work
that
we
have
to
do
so
he's
joining
our
team
just
to
at
least
part
time,
and
we
are
continuing
to
look
at
other
other
shifting
of
resources
and
workload
to
to
make
this
happen
as
fast
as
we
can,
while
also
doing
the
robust,
robust
outreach
that
is
really
needed
and
desirable,
I
would
say
I
think
one
of
the
things
that
I
think
we
will
let
council
know
if
there
are
things
that
come
up
as
possible
work
items
that
could
get
in
the
way.
A
I
know
that
there's
a
lot
of
work
to
be
done
and
think
new
things
can
can
be
added,
so
you
know
we'll
definitely
make
the
council
aware
if
there
are
things
that
start
to
be
contemplated
to
add
to
our
plate.
That
would
impact
this.
This
schedule.
J
J
Right-
and
I
know-
there's
not
one
department
that
I
speak
to,
that
would
deny
that
they
would
like
additional
resources,
but
I
do
think
that
it's
important
right
that
we
hear
what
it
is
that
you
may
need,
or
hurdles
that
that
are
in
the
way
that
we
might
be
able
to
remove
or
assist
with.
J
So
I
just
I
appreciate
again
that
the
update-
and
I
know
our
community
members
that
spoke,
highlighted
a
lot
of
key
points
and
why
it's
important
that
we
we
are
robust
in
this
work,
because
it
truly
is
important
and
we
do
see
a
lot
of
disparities
amongst
different
groups
of
people
where
you
know,
if
we're
not
conscious
about
how
we're
building
and
who
we're
building
for
right,
then,
then
that
impact
to
them
is
is
really
felt
in
their
their
day-to-day
lives
and
so
again
appreciate
the
work
and
I'll
make
a
motion
to
approve
thanks.
G
C
N
Thank
you,
chair,
foley
and
committee
members
good
afternoon,
I'm
chris
burton
director
of
planning
building
code
enforcement,
and
I
brought
some
of
the
key
members
of
our
exec
team
in
ppce
with
me
today
to
answer
all
your
important
questions,
so
chu
cheng,
our
assistant
director,
is
here
as
well
as
leaders
to
deputy
director
for
building
robert
manfred,
a
deputy
director
for
planning
and
then
also
alex
powell,
who
acts
as
a
chief
of
staff
in
the
department
and
is
responsible
for
collating
a
lot
of
the
data
and
stuff
that
we'll
share
today.
N
Okay,
so
hopefully
you
have
the
presentation
so
yeah,
so,
as
you
mentioned
we're
here
today,
to
provide
the
first
of
what
will
be
a
regular
update
on
the
metrics
and
dashboard
data
that
we're
monitoring
and
the
detailed
bottlenecks
in
the
development
process
for
pvce,
as
well
as
sort
of
highlighting
some
of
our
recommendations
for
improvements
for
this
first
report,
we've
really
started
by
looking
at
many
of
the
metrics
that
we've
already
been
monitoring
as
a
department,
but
as
we
return
through
subsequent
reports,
we'll
continue
to
refine
this.
N
You
know
look
at
our
approach,
look
at
how
we're
sort
of
presenting
this
data
and
then
incorporate
feedback
from
the
committee
and
all
of
you
as
we
go,
and
you
know,
while
we
regularly
sort
of
good
reminder
that,
while
we're
regularly
at
council
talking
about
you,
know
major
policy
issues,
things
like
the
the
prior
item
as
well
as
specific
projects,
it's
actually
been
a
while,
since
we've
been
at
committee
or
with
council
to
talk
about
the
kind
of
business
of
permitting
and
everything
that
really
goes
into
that
process.
N
So,
just
to
start
with
a
reminder
and
that,
alongside
our
development
services
partners,
you
know
we
issue
over
30
000
permits
a
year
and
we
process
approximately
5
000
planning
applications
and
we
conduct
over
150
000
inspections
each
year.
So
there's
a
huge
body
of
work,
it's
being
undertaken
within
pvce
by
roughly
half
of
our
300
staff
members.
So
that's
sort
of
you
know
line
staff
and
their
supervisors,
so
I'm
gonna
dive
into
this
slide.
N
This
is
slightly
different
from
the
the
version
that
got
posted
and
the
reason-
and
I
know
this
can
be
a
little
overwhelming
when
you
see
it
at
first
and
we
certainly
have
all
the
other
slides.
So
we
can
break
down
these
numbers
individually
as
well,
but
I
wanted
to
start
with
this
kind
of
higher
level
view
of
that
development
process
and
to
really
highlight
how
none
of
the
metrics
that
we're,
tracking
and
and
working
to
improve,
exist
in
isolation
within
pvc-e.
N
The
way
to
really
think
about
all
of
the
different
permits
and
processes
that
we
have
moving
through
at
any
given
time
is
that
you
know
we
have
planning
process
and
building
process
which
is
our
kind
of
a
left-hand
axis,
and
that
we're
really
focused
on
these
kind
of
three
phases
through
that
process.
So
it's
intake
that
sort
of
process
of
bringing
the
the
application
of
the
permit
in
through
the
door
the
review
process.
N
So
when
we
have
it
we're
managing
that
process,
we're
looking
through
the
plans
we're
working
with
the
applicant
and
then
issuance.
So
how
do
we
get
it
out
on
the
f
on
the
back
end
and
then
follow
up
with
inspection
so
as
we're
considering
the
kind
of
various
different
customer
journey
experiences
that
exist
across
this
and
that
we
steward
as
a
department,
we're
really
looking
at
those
portions
of
the
process
that
we
control
and
working
to
provide
more
predictability
and
transparency
for
our
customers.
N
So
they
can
see
sort
of
how
we're
working
and
understand
how
things
are
moving
through
our
process.
Each
of
the
metrics
on
the
dashboard
are
representing
the
actual
number
that
we've
seen
in
january
2022
in
the
the
deck
I
won't
run
through
these
each
of
the
individual
slides,
but
in
the
deck
that
we
provided.
N
So,
as
I
said,
we
can
sort
of
come
back
to
the
the
specifics,
but
for
any
of
the
the
detailed
pieces,
but
I
did
want
to
highlight
some
of
the
key
aspects
again
as
we
take
this
higher
level
view.
So,
if
you
think
about
sort
of
the
the
building
permit
process
and
what
I'm
really
going
to
focus
on
is
that
middle
line
of
metrics,
so
7,
8,
11,
12
and
then
15
16..
So,
on
the
left
hand
side
in
seven
eight.
N
What
we're
looking
at
is
how
many
customers
are
looking
to
submit
plans
come
through
the
process.
You
know
the
total
volume.
In
january,
we
started
to
see
that
spike
as
we
come
out
the
back
end
of
the
pandemic
and
then,
as
you
look
at
measures,
11
and
12,
what
we're
talking
about
is
the
total
number
of
plans
received
and
that
are
being
processed.
N
So
historically,
when
we've
looked
at
this,
we've
talked
about
number
of
permits
and
the
challenge
that
we
we
know
we
have
when
we
talk
about
that
is
it
doesn't
really
represent
the
work
accurately,
so
one
permit
can
take
one
review.
One
permit
can
take
three
reviews,
and
so
what
we're
trying
to
measure
and
really
understand
from
a
sort
of
productivity
and
workload
standpoint
is
how
many
times
a
plan's
coming
through
and
that's
what
you're
seeing
there
is
it
represented
in.
N
N
N
This
is
where
we're
looking
to
move
more
permits
online,
where
people
can
pull
the
permit
themselves,
as
you
can
see,
we're
at
about
sort
of
a
three-quarters
one-quarter
between
permits
that
are
issued
online,
so
kind
of
in
a
self-service
model,
and
there
are
now
over
50
permits
that
individual
customers
can
get
issued
online
and
we're
going
to
continue
to
look
for
opportunities
to
expand
this
we're
actually
presenting
at
smart
cities
committee
later
this
week
to
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
some
of
the
work.
That's
going
on
behind
the
scenes
with
that.
N
Another
key
measure
that
I
just
want
to
point
out
before
I
move
on
and
highlight
is
really
in
this
first
sort
of
column
in
the
intake
side,
and
it's
really
about
how
we
provide
information
to
the
customers
to
to
the
general
public,
and
it's
really
one
of
those
challenges.
That's
arisen
directly
as
a
result
of
the
pandemic,
so
specifically
for
metric
number,
two,
which
is
email,
inquiries
and
planning.
So
this
is
our
planning
permit
center
team
down
on
the
first
floor.
N
Typically,
sorry
so,
as
I
said
traditionally,
what
we've
had
is
when
people
want
to
ask
a
question
to
the
planning
department
they
want
to
find
out.
What
can
I
do
with
my
property?
What
is
available?
You
know
what
does
the
zoning
code
say?
There
were
two
ways
that
you
could
get
those
questions
answered.
You
could
come
in
on
the
first
floor
and
ask
that
question
of
a
plan
alive
or
also
there
was
a
phone
line
where
we
have
planners
that
monitor
on
an
ongoing
basis.
N
Obviously,
through
the
the
closure
of
city
hall,
we've
not
been
able
to
deliver
in-person
service,
we
have
continued
the
phone
line
and
that
takes
about
between
400
and
500
calls
a
month,
but
to
ensure
that
we
were
maintaining
that
continuity
of
service
through
the
closure
we
opened
up
an
email
address,
so
the
members
of
the
public
could
simply
just
email
their
questions
in
so
the
challenge
here
is
that,
rather
than
having
that
sort
of
defined
stream
of
questions
between
eight
and
five
every
day,
where
you
sort
of
sat
at
the
counter
is
that
now
we
have
an
email
inbox.
N
That's
open,
24
7
that
people
can
send
their
emails
in
to
us
and
it
also
is
really
just
representing
the
start
of
a
conversation.
So
you
know
you
used
to
come
into
the
county.
You'd
ask
a
question:
you
get
it
answered.
Maybe
you
had
the
follow-up,
then
you
go
and
think
about
it
or
you
and
then
you'd
have
to
come
back
now.
N
We
have
folks
that
are
emailing
in
they're,
getting
a
response,
and
it's
starting
that
conversation
and
we're
seeing
that
sort
of
as
an
ongoing
basis,
and
the
challenge
is:
that's
really
not
built
into
our
model
for
service
delivery
right
now
and
so
we're
getting
between
a
thousand
and
fifteen
hundred
emails
a
month
which
need
to
be
responded
to
by
that
team
of
10
down
on
the
first
floor,
amongst
all
the
other
work
that
they're
doing
as
well.
N
So
these
are
some
of
the
impacts
that
we're
really
sort
of
facing
and
sort
of
digging
into
to
understand,
where
we're
losing
productivity
and
understand
kind
of
what
the
opportunity
is
to
improve
service
over
time.
N
So,
just
to
dig
in
sorry
on
metric
number
10,
which
is
the
days
available
until
the
next
appointment,
so
here
we're
showing
44
days.
I
wanted
to
sort
of
touch
on
that
a
little
bit
more
and
go
into
a
little
bit
more
detail.
So
the
average
amount
of
time
that
it
takes
to
get
a
building
permit
can
vary
significantly
depends
on.
N
The
type
of
work
depends
on
whether
it's
an
alteration,
an
addition,
whether
it's
construction,
whether
it's
single
family,
multi-family,
commercial,
and
then
you
know
how
long
is
with
the
applicant-
how
many
revisions
are
required.
So
that's
always
a
moving
target,
but
one
of
the
things
that
we
hear
the
frustration
from
our
customers
on
is
you
know
how
long
it
takes
to
actually
get
in
the
door
to
even
start
that
process.
N
They
understand
that
there's
a
lot
of
flexibility
in
a
complication
and
again
this
is
kind
of
one
of
those
issues
that
we've
seen
as
a
direct
result
of
the
pandemic
has
been
a
slowdown
in
our
ability
to
intake
projects
into
the
building
department.
So
this
is
just
additional
time.
N
It's
kind
of
like
ghost
time
where
the
applicant
experiences
this
challenge
and
the
frustration
and
and
so
sort
of
bringing
more
focus
and
more
attention
to
this
is
really
important
in
understanding
where
those
challenges
are
occurring,
and
so
we've
broken
this
down
by
the
different
types
of
permit
intake
that
we
do
within
building
it's
not
just
sort
of
one
building
permit
process,
there's
a
lot
of
complexity
in
there
and
we
have
over
the
counter,
which
is
the
sort
of
traditional
residential
alterations,
modifications
or
additions.
N
There's
the
simple
projects
which
tends
to
be
sort
of
electrical
or
plumbing
projects.
This
is
where
we
tend
to
see
more
of
our
efficiency
gains
from
from
online
permits
issuance.
You
know
that
that's
where
we've
seen
a
lot
of
those
come
through
with
things
like
solar
and
adus
is
obviously
a
point
of
interest.
I
know
so
we
brought
additional
focus
to
that
and
then
lastly,
plan
review,
which
is
the
bulk
right.
N
Those
are
the
projects
that
are
coming
through
traditional
plan
review
process,
and
so
you
know
when
you
look
at
all
of
these
numbers,
what
you'll
see
is
the
bulk
of
projects.
The
bulk
of
appointments
that
are
coming
through
are
in
that
over-the-counter
in-plan
review.
N
Those
are
the
people
that
come
that
need
to
either
sit
online
virtually
with
one
of
our
permit
center
specialists
or
you
know,
come
into
the
permit
center,
submit
their
plans
and
work
through
that
process
and
where
we've
lost
the
efficiency
through
the
pandemic
is
we're
booking
out
appointments
for
the
online
services
and
it's
less
efficient
than
having
people
sort
of
wait
in
the
permit
center.
N
N
So
generally,
when
you
look
at
this
slide,
if
all
those
charts
are
moving
down
and
to
the
right,
that
means
that
the
time
between
when
somebody
wants
to
get
an
appointment
and
when
the
appointment
is
actually
held
is
reducing
one
of
the
strategies
to
really
make
improvements
in
this
area
is
our
new
rapid
online
service
intake
process
or
rosi
is
the
acronym,
and
this
is
a
process
where
we
have
applicants
that
know
the
process
that
have
usually
had
some
experience,
understand
sort
of
how
san
jose
works
can
come
in
and
submit
their
information
without
having
to
do
the
sit
down
on
the
appointment.
N
So
it
certainly
speeds
that
up
for
the
for
the
applicant.
We
know
that
we're
processing
and
there's
less
questions
around
some
of
those
applications,
and
so
what
that
does?
Is
it
speeds
up
that
process,
not
just
for
the
folks
that
are
in
the
rosy
process,
but
it
also
creates
capacity.
N
Hopefully,
in
the
plan
review
and
the
over-the-counter
sections,
because
it's
creating
more
appointments
for
those
people
that
do
need
the
time
to
sit
down
with
some
of
our
staff
and
understand
what
the
process
is
the
one
number
I
am
a
little
bit
focused
on
just
to
kind
of
give
you
a
heads
up
is
under
plan
review
on
the
number
of
appointments
held,
so
that
433
appointments
held
in
january
is
higher.
N
When
you
think
about
the
average
over
the
prior
year,
it's
about
290
or
somewhere
near
about
300
that
we
would
do
the
fact
that
we've
taken
in
433
means
that
activity
is
picking
up,
and
that
also
means
that,
that's
you
know,
potentially
more
capacity
and
more
delay
in
the
plan
review
process
as
we
start
to
work
through
those
projects.
So
it's
more
plans
in
the
door
and
so
we'll
be
keeping
an
eye
on
that.
I
think,
certainly,
as
we
head
into
you
know
march
we're
experiencing
some
of
the
challenges
around
retirement.
N
It's
that
time
of
year,
when
we
tend
to
see
a
number
of
retirements,
we've
already
had
a
couple
of
folks
and
what
that
does
is
it
impacts
our
productivity,
not
just
about
sort
of
getting
new
staff
members
in,
but
the
loss
of
institutional
knowledge
of
those
experienced
staff
members
means
it's
harder
for
us
to
work
through
a
lot
of
those
projects,
and
so
let
me
end
on
that
point
a
little
bit
just
to
kind
of
give
a
little
bit
more
detail
on
where
we're
at
from
a
staffing
perspective,
because
I
think
it
is
a
question
we
get
regularly
across
the
department
we're
sitting
somewhere
actually
closer
to
18.
N
As
you
can
see
in
some
of
our
service
delivery
lines,
you
know
we
do
have
some
challenges
and
one
of
those
key
areas
is
within
building
plan
review
where
we've
had
a
number
of
vacancies
within
that
team,
and
so
that's
something
that
we're
very
focused
on.
We
have
open
recruitments
across
the
board
on
all
of
the
positions
and
all
the
vacancies
we
have.
Our
plan.
N
In
addition
to
looking
to
streamline
our
hiring
process
within
pvc
and
work
closely
with
hr
is
to
ultimately
get
that
vacancy
rate
department-wide
down
closer
to
sort
of
10-12
percent
by
march
april.
As
I
said,
we
have
a
all
of
these
recruitments
working
through
process
right
now,
a
number
of
folks
starting
to
come
on
board
and
we're
just
on
boarded.
I
want
to
say
it
was
five
new
employees
in
the
last
couple
of
weeks,
so
we
are
making
inroads
into
this
process.
N
N
You
know,
I
think
we
hear
a
lot
at
the
moment
about
some
of
the
the
sort
of
challenges
on
hiring,
certainly
not
unique
to
pvc
or
to
the
city,
and
so
what
we
talk
to
many
of
our
contractors
or
to
many
of
the
the
companies
that
provide
peak
staffing
services
for
us
and
they're
experiencing
similar
challenges
as
well,
so
their
ability
to
find
staff
that
can
backfill
those
vacancies
and
help
us
out
when
we
have
increased
workload
continues
to
be
a
challenge
within
building.
N
We
currently
have
eight
different
companies
on
that
man's
master
contract
to
do
peak
staffing,
we're
actually
looking
to
an
rfp
this
year.
That
will
expand
that
number
and
hopefully
get
more
companies
in
the
mix.
So
we
have
more
resources
to
do
to
draw
in
when
we
have
that
have
that
need
so
with
that,
I'm
gonna,
I'm
gonna,
leave
it
there
and
open
it.
Leave
it
to
you
for
questions
like
I
said
we
have
the
team
here
to
answer
all
the
specific
details
and
and
happy
to
do
so.
C
C
So
first,
I'm
going
to
members
of
the
public
caller
user
number
one
michael
suncini,
we're
talking
about
the
development
dashboard.
G
J
E
Hi,
thank
you.
Libby
been
here.
This
item
was
kind
of
new
to
me.
I
will
be
hopeful
this
and
interested
to
see
how
you
can
better
talk
about
this
item.
I
can
continue
to
talk
about
this
item
at
a
smart
cities
committee.
I
guess
this
week
thanks
for
your
report,.
G
Thanks
chair
chris,
thank
you
for
the
report
really
excited
to
see
the
kpis
in
your
dashboard
and
how
closely
you're
tracking
all
of
your
different
performance
measures
and
service
delivery
measures.
As
they
say,
you
measure
what
matters,
and
I
think
it's
the
first
step
to
really
optimizing
any
service
so
excited
to
have
that
level
of
visibility
at
the
committee
level.
Here,
just
a
couple
of
quick
questions
for
you,
one
is
which
of
these
kpis
right
now,
which
metric
represents
the
the
greatest
opportunity
for
improvement.
G
If
there
was
one
of
these
that
you
were
really
laser,
focused
on
and
maybe
I'll
say
other
than
vacancies
well
I'll,
I
have
a
question
about
vacancies
coming
up.
So
just
setting
staffing
aside
when
you
look
at
the
actual
service
delivery
through
kind
of
the
stages
of
the
process
which
of
those
measures
are
you
most
interested
in
in
investing
in
to
to
improve.
N
Yeah,
you
know
there's
a
lot
of
first.
Let
me
start
by
saying
you
know
we
have
a
tremendous
staff
and
they're
working
incredibly
hard
on
all
the
work
that
comes
in
the
door,
and
I
know
you
know
I
was
on
a
call
with
some
earlier
today
and
I
know
they're
feeling
the
pressure
certainly
of
those
vacancies.
The
key
for
me
is
really
tracking
the
volume
of
work,
that's
coming
through
the
department
and
understanding
that
impact
right,
and
that's
why
you
know.
N
I
know
that
when
you
look
at
that
first
slide,
it
can
give
you
a
headache
because
there's
so
much
on
there,
but
the
reason
it's
kind
of
almost
so
important
to
see
it
all
together
is
to
understand
that
that
so
many
of
these
projects
are
moving
through
that
process
and
hit
so
many
parts
of
that
dashboard
in
different
ways.
So
so,
for
me,
a
big
sort
of
key
focus
has
been.
How
do
we
reduce
that
timeline
on
getting
permits
in
the
door
right
because
permits
in
the
door?
N
You
know
people
pay
fees
when
they
submit
a
permit.
That
means
we
can
pay
staff
right,
we're
sort
of
reducing
their
total
time,
because
when
you
think
of
that
customer
journey
experience,
it's
about
you
know,
I
want
to
start
my
project
now.
I
call
the
city.
I
have
to
wait
this
long
to
get
an
appointment,
and
I
have
to
wait
this
long
to
get
a
permit,
and
then
I
have
to
wait
this
long
to
get
an
inspection.
N
So
you
know
we've
definitely
been
doing
a
lot
of
work
and
focus
around
around
reducing
that
time
to
intake.
N
What
I
will
say
is,
then
that
just
moves
all
those
projects
along
the
line
a
little
bit
further
right
is
that
once
we
and
that's
kind
of
what
I
was
trying
to
say
on
that
sort
of
seeing
those
numbers
come
in
on
the
plan
review
intake
is
that
when
we
see
more
projects
coming
in
the
door,
that
means
there's
more
pressure
on
the
plan
review.
So
it's
sort
of
monitoring
as
we
improve
one
metric.
How
does
it
affect
the
metric
downstream
and
how
do
we
continue
to
improve
improve
across
the
board.
G
Sure,
thanks
and
so
right
now,
if
I
urge
you
correctly,
timed
intake
is
kind
of
or
you're
putting
some
emphasis.
You
know
one
of
the
things
I
found
really
rewarding
and
kind
of
awesome
about
running
a
very
data
driven
process
that
my
startups
was
that
to
your
point
about
the
talent
of
the
team,
it
really
empowered
everyone
to
realize:
okay,
well,
here's
what's
important,
here's
what
we're
measuring
and
then
we
could.
We
actually.
G
I
found
at
least
that
the
staff,
the
folks
who
were
closest
to
the
work,
came
up
with
the
best
ideas
for
how
to
improve
processes,
and
so
I'm
curious.
How
do
you
plan
on
using
the
dashboards
to
kind
of
empower
staff
across
the
entire
department
to
weigh
in
on
what
could
be
improved
and
to
sort
of
let
the
best
ideas
bubble
up
for
how
you
improve
service
delivery?.
N
Yeah,
absolutely,
I
think,
we're
already
starting
to
see
that,
with
with
processes
like
the
the
rapid
online
service
intake
right,
which
is,
you
know,
very
much
coming
from
the
building
team,
as
they
understand
those
metrics
and
they
see
those
challenges
and
see
those
opportunities.
So
we're
trying
to
build
this
into
the
culture
of
the
department
right,
we're
trying
to
make
informed
decisions
as
managers
throughout
the
department
giving
people,
visibility
and
understanding
into
those
metrics
and
what
it
means
across
the
process
right
and
how
it
applies
and
how
it
has
impact.
N
So
it's
very
much
kind
of
the
the
part
of
the
culture
and
the
philosophy
that
we're
trying
to
build
within
pvce.
So
it's
not
just
kind
of
one
of
those
reports
that
we
bring
on
a
quarterly
basis
to
committee.
To
say
this
is
where
the
numbers
are
at
is
that
these
actually
mean
stuff
to
folks?
N
I
think
ultimately,
where
we'll
end
up
is
hopefully
that
a
lot
of
this
you
know,
because,
right
now
and
and
some
of
this
is
just
the
challenges
around
the
technology
and
the
sort
of
intricacies
of
our
process
is
putting
together.
Reports
like
this
takes
a
huge
amount
of
time
and
effort.
You
know,
and
certainly
appreciation
to
alex
who's
on
the
front
end
of
a
lot
of
that
work.
N
But
you
know
in
our
sort
of
preferred
end
state
what
it
would
be
is
a
lot
of
this
data
is
coming
up
from
the
team
that
they're
seeing
it
and
that
they're,
using
on
a
regular
basis
to
help
inform
those
decisions,
help
prioritize
and
then
help
sort
of
help
have
the
conversation
about
resources
in
an
appropriate
way.
G
N
And
we
can
talk
about
this
for
a
long
time
right.
The
the
quality
of
your
data
depends
largely
on
on
your
inputs,
right
and
so
ensuring
that
we're
collecting
that
data
in
the
right
way
and
that
our
processes
are
sort
of
going
into
our
into
our
system
appropriately
amanda
will
throw
out
the
reports,
but
then
it
takes
some
amount
of
curation
and
sort
of
understanding
and
development
to
then
actually
turn
it
into
something
right,
so
so
we're
working
on
that
it's
definitely
sort
of
intended
to
be
part
of
the
process.
N
It's
where
we
want
to
be
when
we
think
about
this.
In
sort
of
you
know,
six
months
or
12
months
as
we
continue
to
evolve
this
report,
but
it'll
take
us
some
time.
G
N
B
No,
I
I
totally
agree
chris
there's
sorry
alex
powell
planning
building
code
enforcement.
It's
a
wonderful
question.
One
that
I
am
particularly
interested
in
is
chris
has
already
alluded
to
there's.
Of
course
everything
starts
manual
with
most
of
our
data
entry,
even
with
the
time
to
issuance
right.
There's
a
start
there's
an
end,
and
I
think
we
identify
that.
You
know
that's
that's
manual
processes
and
that's
the
again
thinking
of
the
data.
That's
the
genesis
of
it.
B
Getting
it
all
the
way
to
the
point
that
we
have
here,
there's
a
few
layers
of
analyses:
could
we
get
it
into
a
more
automated
state?
I
think
chris
said
yes,
the
automated
for
the
time
to
issuance.
I
think
that's
actually
one
that
is
a
lot
more
readily
available.
B
That
staff
already
do
very
well
some
of
these,
and
I
think
chris
was
trying
to
allude
to
this
that
some
of
these
measure
activities
that
you
know
can't
be
automated,
that
this
is
activities
that
we
need
staff
to
really
manually
put
in,
and
so
that's
a
little
bit
more
manual
for
just
reporting
out.
So
that
could
be
a
direction
that
we
go,
that
we
really
focus
only
on
the
on
the
data
that
is
most
readily
available.
B
But
we've
tried
to
take
more
of
our
approach
of
what
is
what
are
the
activities
that
really
describe
our
work?
The
best
whether
or
not
it
was
manual
or
automated.
G
Yeah
and
you're
going
to
know
that
best.
I
guess
I
would
draw
a
distinction
between
staffing
to
manually
update
a
system
which
is
always
going
to
be
the
case.
I
would
assume
versus
triggering
automated
reporting
on
the
back
end,
where
it's
like.
Okay,
it's
now
advanced
to
the
next
stage
and
not
having
to
actually
so
does
that
distinction
make
sense.
G
B
Absolutely
one
the
one
other
item
I'd
add
is
it's
the
same
pool
of
I.t
resources
that
do
the
the
automation
to
make
the
process
faster,
and
so
we've
had
a
hard
time,
particularly
this
report
pulling
them
away
from
their
their
work
to
try
to
speed
up
this
process
as
opposed
to
the
process
of
reporting
on
the
process.
Sure,
okay,
so.
N
Certainly
we'll
be
sort
of
providing
that
update.
I
think
it's
on
thursday
at
smart
cities.
Right
as
we
talk
about
this
balance
of
you
know
what
ultimately
makes
a
lot
of
our
processes.
More
efficient
is
looking
at
those
technology
solutions
that
can
sort
of
enhance
our
ability
to
deliver
service
versus
kind
of
how
you
balance
that,
with
sort
of
making
some
of
these
things
easier
and
more
accessible,
yeah.
N
G
Two
quick
final
questions
and
then
I'll
hand
it
back
to
the
chair.
The
question
of
so
one
of
the
things,
at
least
in
in
consumer,
internet
and
and
b2b
that
I
know
is
super
important.
Is
the
notion
of
drop
off
churn?
Are
you
losing
people
in
your
funnel
and
I'm
curious?
I
did
not
see
a
metric
specifically
capturing
that
notion
do
do
we
have
an
ability,
or
at
least
an
intention
to
try
to
understand
how
a
process
that
may
be
slower
and
more
frustrating
than
we
ultimately
want
it
to
be?
G
N
Is
very
closely
and
actually
when
we
sort
of
mapped
out
what
we
wanted.
This
report
to
look
like
that
was
one
of
the
things
we
we
identified
that
when
you
again
take
that
that
sort
of
zoomed
out
view
of
it
is
how
do
you
line
up
the
resources
available
with
each
of
those
kind
of
columns
or
rows
that
give
you
that
sort
of
level
of
productivity?
G
But
do
we
have
a
drop-off
rate?
I
was
talking
about
applications
in
I
mean
do
we
do
we
think
we
lose
projects?
Do
we
lose
investment
because
the
process
ends
up
being
slower,
more
complicated,
more
expensive
than
people?
Think
and
do
we
do?
We
have
some
notion
of
a
funnel
of
this.
Many
people
express
interest
in
doing
a
project
or
submitting
a
permit
application,
and
then
this
is
how
many
actually
get
to
the
other
end
of
the
funnel
and
actually
are
able
to
move
forward.
I
mean
that
would
be
a
number.
N
Yeah,
so
I'd
love
to
be
able
to
kick
this
question
to
the
office
of
economic
development.
I
guess
I
should
probably
answer
it
because
it
used
to
be
part
of
my
portfolio,
so
I
don't
think
we
have
a
specific
number
around
it
right.
I
think
when
we're
thinking
about
the
implications
of
time
in
as
it
relates
to
you,
know,
opportunity
cost
or
lost
investment
for
development.
Certainly
you
know
spec
development
or
even
sort
of
you
know,
large
multi-family
is
it's
really
represented,
as
as
part
of
their
risk
portfolio.
N
Right
is
the
time
to
delay
you
know
and
time
to
market
and
sort
of
how
that
relates
to
their
funding
and
the
lining
up
of
their
investment
portfolio.
N
N
B
D
N
We
have
actually
talked
about
that
recently.
It's
not
a
number
we've
pulled
yet,
but
I
think
it's
an
important
one
right
and
I
think,
in
the
context
of
the
general
plan,
amendments
that
came
through
the
privately
initiated
recently,
we
had
this
conversation
right
how
many
of
these
actually
turn
into
real
projects?
How
do
we
actually
sort
of
see
this
down
the
pipeline?
G
N
I'd
say
formally
mostly
passive,
I
think,
there's
some
informal
work
that
goes
on
around
that
just
through
sort
of
networks
and
sort
of
you
know
people
reaching
out.
N
I
mean,
I
think
you
know
we're
challenged
for
those
folks
in
region,
because
you
know
just
how
we
compete
with
other
cities,
just
as
an
employer
is
a
challenge
at
times
and
then
for
those
folks
that
are
out
of
region
just
the
realities
of
the
cost
of
living
of
relocating
into
this
region,
certainly
for
those
for
those
positions
that
are
at
sort
of
entry
level-
or
you
know
even
to
you
know,
mid
management
level
in
certain
cases,
there's
barriers
into
entry
for
people
coming
to
the
era
and
what
we've
seen
in
some
cases-
and
this
is
sort
of
more
anecdotal.
N
I
don't
have
data
on
this-
is
you
know,
folks
that
have
relocated
in
have
a
hard
time
kind
of
establishing
themselves
or
establishing
their
life
in
the
area?
And
and
so
we
see
turnover
in
those
positions.
So
there's
a
number
of
factors,
we're
not
do
we're
doing
some
amount.
You
know,
certainly
through
social
media
through
linkedin
through
you
know,
avenues
like
that
to
promote
positions,
we're
starting
to
now
have
conversations
you
know,
informally,
on
a
live
basis.
To
start
to
talk
about.
N
But,
like
I
said
it's
just
it's
a
challenge
across
the
board
right
now,
I
think
you
know
every
department
in
the
city
has
had
challenge
hiring.
I
know
that
many
of
the
partners
that
we
work
with
outside
of
the
city,
whether
it's
consultants
and
contractors
or
developers,
are
facing
similar
challenges
right
now
and
it'll
take
some
time
for
that
to
level
off
post
pandemic.
N
G
Yeah
I
mean
I
I
empathize
with
how
difficult
it
is
to
recruit
in
this
market
and-
and
you
know
when
I
was
hiring
for
all
different
kinds
of
roles
in
the
private
sector.
It
was
a
war
for
talent
where
we
found
we
used
to
have
to
get
a
hundred
resumes
to
make
one
higher.
It
was
incredibly
competitive
and
we
could
offer
higher
salaries
than
the
city.
G
I
understand
that
at
least
at
least
in
some
roles,
but
what
I
did
learn
the
hard
way
over
many
years
was
it
really
took
a
lot
of
proactive
outreach
and
sourcing
of
candidates
to
to
fill
the
vacancies
we
had
and
we
learned
it
seemed
to
be
even
more
important
over
time.
So
I
just
I
would
encourage
us
to
really
think
about.
To
what
extent
can
we
deploy
proactive,
recruiting
and
sourcing
techniques,
because
I
think
we're
going
to
continue
to
struggle
if
we're
not
investing
there?
G
Okay,
cool.
Thank
you,
chair.
J
Yeah,
thank
you
very
much
and
appreciate
the
presentation
in
seeing
seeing
all
that
data.
Thank
you
very
much
chris.
It
is
really
helpful
and
thank
you
to
councilman
mayhem
for
your
questions
and
one
just
one
question
that
surfaced
from
what
customer
mayhem
was
just
talking
about,
and
it's
in
regards
to
the
number
of
projects
that
actually
make
it
to
fruition.
J
For
instance,
my
experience
over
the
last
seven
years
has
been
there's
a
lot
of
projects
that
will
go
through.
You
know
the
entire
permitting
process
application
permitting
process
and
then
on
their
own
account
right
for
their
own
reasons.
J
Not
actually
you
know
follow
through
break
ground,
build
the
product
whatever
it
may
be,
and
there's
a
myriad
of
reasons
that
I've
already
experienced.
Why?
J
I
don't
again,
I
don't
know
if
this
is
possible,
but
is
there
a
way
that
we
can
try
and
determine
right,
a
prioritization
of
projects
and
where
we're
putting
our
time
and
effort,
especially
some
of
the
projects
that
I've
lived
through
in
in
downtown
that
have
taken
a
significant
amount
of
time
because
they've
been
big
projects
and
potentially
controversial
and
they
sit
there
right
and
they
just
nothing
happens,
and
so
staff
has
spun
their
wheels
for
a
year
and
a
half,
and
you
know
we've
and
myself
included
me
my
team
and
all
you
know
community
meetings
and,
and
then
nothing
happens.
J
N
Yeah,
no,
I
I
think
it's
a
really
good
question
and
you
know
what
I
was
not
expecting
out
of
this
conversation,
but
still
it's
a
good
opportunity
to
have
it.
You
know-
and
I
think
you
know,
as
I
was
saying
it
really
struck
home
through
our
conversation
on
the
privately
initiated
general
plan,
amendments
right,
because
the
question
came
up
when
you've
got
a
developer
who's
saying.
Ultimately,
this
is
the
outcome
that
we're
going
to
deliver
on
this
site.
N
If
you
just
make
this
change
over
here-
and
you
know,
we're
not
doing
sort
of
a
great
job
of
keeping
track
of
that
and
sort
of
demonstrating
what
our
success
rate
is
on
sort
of
all
of
these
different
things.
So
it's
probably
worth
us
spending
some
time
on
how
we
think
about
it.
What
I
can
tell
you
is,
you
know
it's
not
as
simple
as
kind
of
pulling
just
a
report
out
of
the
permitting
system
to
say
these
are
all
of
the
things
that
have
either
dropped
off.
N
It's
going
to
take
some
curation
and
analysis
within
that
and
sort
of
how
we
find
the
space
to
to
have
those
conversations
and
make
those
make
those
decisions
will
be
tough.
It's
probably
something
that
will
rope
in
oed
and
have
that
conversation
because
they
think
you
know
what
I
can
tell
you
is
it's
important
from
their
perspective
in
talking
to
you
know
whether
it's
business
attraction,
whether
it's
sort
of
housing
development,
is
thinking
about
kind
of
what
projects
are
out
there
that
could
move.
That
could
be
an
opportunity.
N
B
A
major
development
project
list
that
emily
lopoma
are
the
city's
development
facilitation
officer.
She
does
manage
that
list.
It
has
about
25
or
so
major
projects,
not
just
downtown
across
the
city,
and
you
know
a
range
of
residential
and
commercial
mixed
use
as
well,
and
so
that's
something
that
we
can
use
as
a
tool
in
terms
of
tracking
how
the
applicants
are
going
through
the
process.
You
know
why
they
aren't
submitting
their
building
permit
applications
after
they've
gotten
entitled.
So
those
are
things
that
we
can
continue
to
do.
J
J
You
know,
try
and
improve
the
process
from
the
last
two
years,
as
we
were
hindered
in
the
backlog
that
we
have,
and
I
I
appreciate
seeing
that
the
trends
are
going
in
the
direction
that
we
want
to
see
them,
and
thank
you,
chris
for
pointing
out
that
really
that
that
initial
delay
you're
working
on
now
that
intake
right
that
the
days
between
booking
and
appointment.
That
thank
you
for,
for
that.
J
It
looks
like
things
we
can
do,
but
I
just
you
know
now
in
in
my
time
on,
the
council
have
recognized
where
we
we
do
put
a
lot
of
time
and
effort
and
energy
in
in
all
these
projects,
but
there's
some
that
take
significantly
more
and
I'd
be
curious
on
that.
You
know
that
data
to
see
how
many
of
these
actually
pan
out
and
what
are
some
of
those
reasons
and
then,
more
importantly,
is
there
a
way
that
we
can
try
and
figure
that
out
ahead
of
time.
J
I
know
over
the
years
I
started
to
have
those
conversations
with
the
applicants
and
developers.
You
know
wondering
hey,
you
know
what
is
your?
What
is
your
reality
on
on
wanting
to
break
ground
on
these
projects
and
and
to
give
me
an
idea,
you
know
am
I
should
I
be
allocating
my
staff
time
and
resources
gathering.
You
know
communities
together
for
community
input
and
you
know
and
and
be
doing
that
or
or
is
it
something
that
is
not
necessarily
priority
because
they're
they're
just
going
through
the
motions
anyways?
J
I
I
thank
you
for
that
and
I
think
we
have
the
motion
already
yeah.
That's
right.
I
seconded
it.
Okay
thanks.
C
Thank
you
you're.
I.
I
really
appreciate
your
rep,
your
questions,
councilmember
perales,
about
development
projects
coming
in
the
door
or
getting
approved,
and
then
not
going
anywhere
forward
and
the
amount
of
time
that
we
as
a
council
office,
but
also
the
staff,
are
spending
getting
them
further
along
in
a
process
when
they
don't
actually
break
ground
and
nothing
comes
up
out
of
the
ground.
I'm
wondering
if
we've
ever
considered
doing
a
like
a
rating
when,
like
what
like
the
success
rating
when
when
an
application
comes
in,
do
we
give
it
a
score
of?
C
Yes?
We
think
these
guys
are.
We
know
they're
going
to
come
up
with
the
money
we
know.
They've
got
all
their
financing
in
peace.
We
know,
there's
no
environmental
issues,
that's
going
to
kill
this
deal.
Do
we
have
a
way.
J
C
C
Therefore,
we
should
put
a
lot
of
resources
into
it
time,
time
and
talent,
and
that
includes
our
council
offices
versus
someone
who
comes
in
and
we're
listening
to
their
story
and
we're
thinking.
I
don't
know
this
is
their
first
development
project.
It's
a
weird
building
that
they're
tearing
down
do.
They
know
the
historical
you
know
all
the
things
that
that
come
up,
I'm
wondering
if
we
could
sort
of
score
it
a
little
bit
internally
or
what
kind
of
problems
that
would
create
for
us.
Maybe
I
don't
know.
N
Yeah,
I
think
it's
a
fair
question.
I've
not
met
a
developer,
yet
that
has
not
convinced
that
their
project
is
the
next
best
thing.
I
will
just
say
that,
as
a
start
point
you
know
it.
I
think
it's
definitely
a
good
point,
and
this
is
that
sort
of
where
we
sort
of
sit
on
that
line
between
kind
of
economic
development
and
and
kind
of
the
the
core
role
of
pvc,
and
it's
an
important
one
that
we
sort
of
work
in
partnership
on,
but
ultimately,
as
a
service
provider.
N
You
know
our
role
is
to
deliver
service
to
all
of
our
customers.
You
know
in
a
timely
way
and
meet
that
need
and
meet
that
demand
on
an
ongoing
basis.
There's
certainly
you
know
projects
that
we
work
closely
with
to
ensure
that
you
know
we're
sort
of
helping
them
through
the
process
and
and
through
emily
and
oed,
and
then
through
jared
as
the
housing
catalyst.
N
You
know,
we
definitely
have
those
additional
resources.
I
think
that's
sort
of
an
ongoing
conversation,
how
we
continue
to
sort
of
focus
on
and
prioritize
those
projects
that
have
the
potential
for
a
big
impact.
C
No
excellent
point,
thank
you
very
much
and
thank
you
for
your
report.
So
with
that,
let's
vote.
G
C
J
C
F
Hi,
thank
you.
I
just
wanted
to
quickly
say
I
know
all
of
you
probably
know
this
already,
but
I'm
very
interested
in
being
part
of
the
urban
urban
village
plan
here
in
oakridge
and
there's
no
way
for
me
to
as
a
resident
to
kind
of
tap
into
talking
with
someone
at
the
city
other
than
sending
an
email,
and
you
guys
are
so
busy
in
planning
that
I
wouldn't
anticipate.
F
We
would
have
a
great
conversation
about
something,
nor
would
I
expect
it
by
the
way
four
years
in
the
future,
so
I'm
going
to
put
it
out
there
to
anybody
planning
listening
that
I
would
love
to
be
reached
out
to
and
would
love
to
be
a
part
of
that.
The
other
reason
I
bring
it
up
is
because,
after
talking
with
leslie
guardino
after
the
new
sb
330
law,
that's
going
in.
F
I
anticipate
that
you
know
there
are
going
to
be
quite
a
few
affordable
housing
projects
that
will
go
in
without
any
urban
village
plans
at
all
and
they
need
to
be
streamlined
and
that's
great,
I'm
glad
we'll
get
the
housing.
But
at
the
same
time
we
were
sort
of
told-
and
I
don't
want
to
use
the
word
promised,
but
there
was
a
really
high
expectation
set
that
those
that
were
interested
in
the
community
would
be
reached
out
to
would
be
a
part
of
that
planning
and
I
kind
of
feel
like
now.

Just
so
you
know
that
isn't
going
to
happen,
that's
going
to
sort
of
just
be
something
where
there's
going
to
be
this
task
force
and
this
urban
planning
thing
it'll
be
like
you
know,
spur
and
catalyst
sb
and
all
these
other
people,
but
I'm
here
and
I'm
ready
and
I'm
willing-
and
I
would
love
very
much
to
be
a
part
of
that
and
reach
out
to
my
neighbors
and
friends
and
people
who
live
in
95123
and
really
want
to
see
this
place
blossom
and
not
just
have
groups
kind
of
deciding
the
fate
of
this
area.
F
So
thank
you
for
listening
and
I'm
here
love
to
be
reached
out
to
thank
you
so
much.

Hi
claire
beekman
here
thanks
a
lot
for
the
meeting
today,
I've
been
a
little
bit
out
of
it
for
a
while,
and
you
know
I'm
slowly
learning
to
separate
from
the
public
comment
time
a
bit
and
let
it
breathe,
but
at
the
same
time
I
I
hope
my
voice
can
continue
to
be
respected
and
we
work
towards
a
respect
for
public
comment
time
overall,
and
so
thanks
for
your
efforts
today
and
and
what
we
can
work
together
in
in
the
next
six
months,
I
wanted
to
quickly
comment
that
you
know
it's
my
strong
belief
that
mixed
income
ideas
can
really
be
of
help
to
you
to
you
guys
in
the
next
few
years,
and
it
offers
an
incredible
flexibility
and
how
to
talk
about.
E
You
know
a
variety
of
different
income
levels
living
under
in
the
same
neighborhood,
and
so
good
luck
in
those
efforts
how
to
better
talk
about
and
understand
the
issue
for
our
future.
I
think
it
really
is
our
future.
We
don't
know
how
to
quite
yet
talk
about
it
openly
and
publicly.
Good
luck
with
that.
E
I
wanted
to
quickly
mention
someone
mentioned
that
you
know
someone
offered
some
disingenuous
ideas
about
the
future
of
development
in
san
jose,
and
you
know
I
I
don't
think
that's
it's
not
quite
that
possible
to
to
be
disingenuous
about
being
apprehensive
about
the
future
of
development,
and
I
really
hope
that
you
know
we
really
consider
fast
track
housing
for
the
future
of
you
know
urban
village
situations
and
not
be
so
gung-ho
to
get
into
it,
because
we,
you
have
a
certain
amount
of
leeway
and
privilege
at
this
time
go
cautious,
go
slow.
E
I
think
that
should
be
the
policy
of
how
we
talk
about
the
future
of
urban
village
and
it
will
bring
about
much
better
results
and
we
will
not
feel
as
greedy
and
good
luck
in
in
the
deals
with
both
sides
of
ukraine
and
russia
and
they're
in
a
peace
negotiation
process
they're
the
next
stages
of
the
peace
process.
Good
luck,
how
they
can
work
their
ideas
out
in
poland.

Thank
you
last
caller
is
the
initial
m.
L
Hi,
thank
you
just
a
few
comments,
mostly
on
the
housing
development.
L
I
have
a
question:
if
anyone
can
answer
the
sb
35
mandates
and
related
legislation,
I've
heard
from
both
the
city
of
san
jose
and
saratoga
comments
about
how
developers
can
come
in
and
take
just
run
free
if
we
don't
meet
the
mandate
and
the
city
of
saratoga
was
saying
one
of
the
council.
Members
said
something
about
including
a
site
where
the
owner
had
already
written.
They
were
opposed
to
it.
L
In
addition,
I
would
like
the
focus
to
be
for
affordable
housing
to
be
on
building
for
disabled
people,
such
as
units
designed
for
people
who
are
wheelchair-bound
blind
people
and
such
the
great
thing
about
those
I've
worked
in
affordable
housing
on
a
high
level
as
an
officer
of
multi
corporations,
and
they
have
almost
no
crime
in
their
units.
So
it's
a
really
ideal
focus
and
also
there
well
anyways,
I'm
running
out
of
time.
L
Mr
perez,
I
believe
the
people
who
are
opposing
things,
such
as
the
height
of
building,
are
genuine
and
they're,
probably
the
people
who
have
invested
a
ton
of
money
in
the
ownership
of
local
real
estate,
so
I
hope
you'll
respect
them
going
forward.
Thank
you
very
much.
C
Thank
you.
Am
I
I'll
just
we
don't
usually
respond
to
questions
at
open
forum,
but
I
will
say
that
a
developer
cannot
implement
eminote
domain
to
acquire
real
estate.
That's
only
something
a
government
agency
could
do
and
that's
a
long
process
with
that
this
meeting
is
adjourned.
Thank
you.
All.
