A
A
So
we
can
go
ahead
and
get
started.
Welcome
to
neighborhood
services
committee
and
we'll
start
with
tony
with
a
roll
call.
B
A
Thank
you.
Everyone
and,
as
I
said,
welcome
this
is
our
our
second
meeting
during
cover
times,
and
so
we
are
learning
as
we
go
to
conduct
our
committees
as
well
as
we
can,
and
so
I
want
to
thank
all
the
staff
and
and
if
you're
joining
us
in
our
community,
please
let
us
know
if
you
have
any
questions,
you
can
raise
your
hand.
A
Tony
our
city
clerk
is
on
hand
to
help
out
and
happy
second
nsc
meeting
all
right,
so
we
don't
have
anything
on
our
review
of
work
plan,
but
we
do
have
something
on
our
consent,
so
I'm
open
to
emotion,
proof.
Second,
all
in
favor,
aye
aye.
A
D
Yes,
thank
you
chair
john
cesarelli.
I'm
director
of
parks,
recreation,
neighborhood
services
with
me
today
is
aviotom.
He
is
the
acting
deputy
director
for
parks
under
which
the
division
under
which
the
this
particular
site
falls
and
then
shannon
heimer,
a
newly
appointed
division
manager
and
her
responsibilities
within
that
division
in
the
parks,
division
are
destination
and
events
and
palace
certainly
fits
into
that
category.
D
So
she'll
be
going
forward
helping
to
manage
that
site
in
the
program,
and
so
what
we're
hoping
to
get
today
from
you
is
some
input
and
any
feedback
you
may
have
on
what
we're
proposing
as
the
model
going
forward
for
managing
this
site
and
with
that
input.
What
we
would
then
do
is
come
back
to
council,
I
believe
we're
targeting
november.
D
If
I
remember
right,
but
avi
can
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong
and
then
in
front
of
full
counsel,
with
your
input
to
lay
out
okay,
here's
the
final
deal
points
now
we'll
go,
negotiate,
execute
and
finalize.
So
with
that,
I'm
going
to
hand
it
over
to
avi
and
shannon
to
walk
through
the
presentation
and
then
we're
happy
to
answer
any
questions
or
take
any
feedback.
You
have
avi.
E
Thank
you,
john
chair
members
of
the
committee,
I'm
avio
tom,
acting
deputy
director
of
the
parks
division
and
thank
you
for
having
us
today
for
an
update
on
our
efforts
regarding
pal.
E
E
A
lot
has
changed
since
february
of
2020.,
most
importantly
for
the
entire
world,
the
coronavirus
pandemic
and
shelter
in
place
which
began
in
mid
middle
of
march
and
pal,
as
with
many
of
our
facilities
closed
at
that
point,
as
a
community
serving
facility,
as
our
organization
really
diverted
towards
essential
services
and
and
emergency
operations
center
directed
efforts,
a
lot
of
our
work
around
pal
was
put
on
pause
and
definitely
slowed
down,
but
we
have
begun
resuming
our
conversations
with
the
pal
nonprofit
and
and
among
staff
about
the
future
of
the
facility.
E
Importantly,
we
have
also
reorganized
our
parks
division,
as
john
mentioned
at
city
council
last
week,
to
create
a
little
bit
more
focus
between
our
teams
working
on
park
maintenance
and
our
teams
under
shannon's
leadership
in
a
new
unit
called
destinations,
events
and
sports,
which
creates
a
little
bit
more
focus
around
our
our
management
and
upkeep
of
sports
fields
such
as
pal
and
the
pal
facility,
janet
you
can
click
to
the
next
slide
over
the
last
few
months.
E
Staff
and
partnership
with
the
nonprofit
has
also
taken
a
keen
eye
to
where
the
pal
facility
can
be
a
community
resource.
During
shelter
in
place,
and
these
incredibly
challenging
times
and
as
the
as
the
committee
knows,
powell
was
the
site
of
a
covid
testing
facility,
with
in
partnership
with
verily
for
the
better
part
of
three
months
and
hosted
a
a
a
very
successful
food
distribution
event
with
the
tap
foundation
and
the
49er
wide
receiver.
F
Managing
my
slides
and
up
there
we
go.
I
want
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
hybrid
model
that
you
will
have.
What
we're
organizing
with
the
palm
nonprofit
is
that
prns
will
be
the
key
and
lead
operator.
The
city
will
be
on
the
pal
board
of
directors.
Powell
will
be
the
program
partner,
fundraiser
and
community
connections.
Engaging
for
fundraising
and
sponsorships
crns
will
provide
maintenance
and
limited
financial
support.
F
F
To
give
more
explanation
of
the
roles
of
the
hybrid
model
pal
will
operate.
Powell
will
conduct
community
relations
fundraising
and
sponsors
they'll
be
the
primary
contact
for
pd
coordination.
The
powell
nonprofit
will
program
league
and
tournament
use
of
the
field
and
operate
the
taekwondo
and
gym
programs.
They'll
operate
the
concession
stands
and
do
daily
minor
facility
maintenance.
F
We've
talked
about
everything
from
even
a
chess
club
to
homework
club
and
there's
a
lot
of
excitement,
building
around
a
variety
of
activities
and
ways
that
pal
can
support.
The
neighborhood
and
community
parana
staff
will
coordinate
with
additional
food
vendors
and
nonprofit
partners,
conduct
daily
field
maintenance
and
manage
major
capital
projects.
F
There
are
many
exciting
opportunities
for
sports
and
community
events
at
the
facility,
powerful
and
profit,
and
pr
staff
are
all
very
excited
to
be
working
on
this
model
and
getting
into
the
details.
Now
of
what
that
will
look
like
and
we'll
we'll
be
really
excited
when
we
have
youth
and
families
back
on
the
site
as
well.
So
thank
you
for
allowing
us
to
give
you
the
update
and
you're
available
for
any.
A
Thank
you
shannon
and
congratulations
on
your
new
assignment.
We're
very
excited
to
have
you
all
right,
so
I
am
going
to
look
to
my
council
colleagues
to
see
if
anybody
has
questions
there,
we
go
council,
member,
sparsa.
B
Thank
you.
I
just
wanted
to
thank
the
prns
team
for
all
their
all
their
hard
work.
There
had
been
a
lot
of
work
that
took
place
before
kovid
and
then
in
recent
months
we
were
we've
had
shannon
and
ivy
come
on
board
and
with
that
have
seen
a
lot
of
headway
in
the
operations
of
pal
and
the
investment
that
the
city
is
making.
So
I
just
wanted
to
thank
you.
B
I
know
it's
taken
a
lot
of
work
and
there's
a
vision
that
we
all
have
where
powell
is
a
jewel
once
again
in
the
community,
and
a
lot
of
local
kids
will
use
that
jewel
and
I
think
the
hybrid
model
is
really
a
model
that
incorporates
the
expertise
and
knowledge
of
the
city
and
the
the
the
that
brings
the
whole
city
behind
it
with
having
a
community-based
organization
to
be
that
face
in
the
community
to
work
on
those
innovative,
fundraising
practices
that
we
know
that
we
need
and
that
we
want
to
increase
that
visibility
and
partnership
in
the
immediate
community,
because
pal
is
an
east
side
jewel,
and-
and
so
I
wanted
to
also
ask
do
we
know
if
anybody
from
pal
is
here.
D
We
did
invite
joe,
but
I'm
not
seeing
him
in
the
attendees.
I
was
noticing
that
as
well.
The
executive
director
slash
president,
I
think,
you're
all
familiar
with
him
from
previous
meetings.
B
Yes-
and
so
I
wanted
to-
and
also
I'm
I'm
remiss
if
I
didn't
thank
my
colleagues,
council
members,
arenas
and
garasco
for
leading
the
efforts
that
brought
us
to
this
point
where
we
can
really
reimagine
pal,
and
so
I
also
wanted
to
ask
in
terms
of
our
relationship
with
pal.
I
had
some
questions
around
us
where
we
are
in
establishing
a
joint
work
plan.
B
The
joint
work
plan
is
for
programs
and
facilities
projects,
but
in
the
past
we
have
talked
about
a
strategic
plan
with
pal
a
multi-year
strategic
plan
plan
that
incorporates
funding
targets
along
those
multi-year
plans
so
that
they
have
we
make
commitments,
but
powell
also
makes
commitments
around
their
fundraising
for
multi-years
so
that
the
city
can
sort
of
make
those
investments
early
and
then
wean
those
investments,
as
powell
becomes
stronger
as
a
board.
Where
are
we
in
those
discussions.
D
F
Yeah
I'll
add
that
we've
been
focusing
on
on
board
development,
understand
the
board
and
where
we're
going,
we've
talked
a
lot
about
having
to
figure
out
what
those
details
look
like
for
sharing
the
facility
and
what
complementary
programming
would
look
like,
and
now
that
we
have,
we
have
a
foundation
of
what
that
looks
like
we
have
talked
about
a
three-year
work
plan
together
and
so
we're
at
the
beginning
of
defining
what
that
looks
like
and
establishing
it
and-
and
it
also
includes
evaluating
every
year.
How
is
this
progressing?
B
Okay
and
that
would
have
targets
for
pal
as
well
as
commitments
from
the
city,
because
I
think
that's
fair
right.
If
the
city
makes
certain
commitments,
then
pals
should
be
expected
to
make
certain
commitments
and
targets
so
that
we
can
work
towards
our
common
goal
of
really
building
a
financially
sustainable
and
community
facing
pal
facility.
D
And
so,
if
I
can
add
some
of
that,
some
of
that
performance
in
those
metrics,
we
will
incorporate
into
the
actual
agreement
that
we
establish
with
them
sort
of
milestones
or
things
that
we
want
them
to
accomplish
as
a
board
to
be
able
to
be
a
responsive
partner
or
even
a
a
good
partner
right.
So
some
of
that
will
be
able
to
address
there
as
well.
D
Well,
we
should
be
back,
like
I
was
saying
november,
give
or
take
in
front
of
the
full
council
with
any
extra
input.
You've
given
us
today
and
then
we'll
lay
it
out.
So
you'll
have
a
very
clear
picture
of
what
all
those
deal
points
are
and
then
last
bit
of
comment.
Let
us
know
what
you
want
and
then
we'll
go,
negotiate
and
execute.
A
Thank
you,
council
member
council,
member
carrasco.
H
Let
me
see
there.
I
am
thank
you
and
thank
you
so
much.
You
know
I
can't
seem
to
get
give
me
a
second
I'm
trying
to
collapse.
H
Never
mind
whatever
okay,
so
thank
you
so
much
pal
is.
H
Is
council
member
esparza
said
it's
a
hidden
jewel
and
I
know
for
those
who
kind
of
drive
by
it
go
what
that's
a
hidden
jewel.
It
is,
and
we
just
need
to
a
little
bit
clean
it
up
and
love
it
for
what
it's
been,
and
it
could
be
really
re-envision
the
potential
that
that
that
palace,
but
so
so
I'm
gonna
go
on
my
on
my
little
soapbox
again,
and
I
know
that
everyone
has
heard
it
so
so
so
just
be
patient
with
me.
H
If
you
will,
for
those
who
haven't
heard
it
you're
in
for
a
treat
but
but
but
angel
angel
has
heard
it
since
the
moment
that
I
came
into
office,
and
I
I
have
him
in
my
office
for
much
longer
than
I'm
sure
he
expected
to
be
in
there,
but
you
know
you
have
money
to
to
do
master.
H
H
H
It's
very
significant
as
it
sits
in
the
overall
picture
of
san
jose
and
a
lot
of
people.
Don't
know
that,
and
so
I'm
gonna
give
you
just
a
little
a
little
taste
of
what
eastside
represents
for
san
jose,
because
it's
rarely
ever
highlighted
in
our
literature.
It's
rarely
ever
plastered
out
there
in
our
social
media
platforms
and
and
so
whenever
I
get
an
opportunity
to
do
so.
I
like
to
do
so,
but
just
a
few
blocks.
Maybe
a
quarter
of
a
minute
is
down
from
pal.
H
H
Then
you
don't
get
the
exciting
facial
expressions,
okay,
so
so
just
a
few.
Is
that
better
or
no?
Maybe?
Okay?
So
it's
just
a
lot
better.
It
is
a
lot
better
because
you
don't
see
me
okay,
so
so
just
a
few
I
got
it.
I
got
it
so,
just
a
few
of
like
a
quarter
of
a
mile.
Half
a
mile
down
from
pal
is
is
says
that
chavez's
home
his
family
still
lives
there
and
there's
just
a
tiny
little
plaque.
H
Cesar
chavez
and
and
up
from
pal
stadium
is
guadalupe
church,
and
that
is
home
to
the
largest
mexican
and
latino
catholic
congregation,
which,
by
the
way,
was
a
stop
for
kennedy
who
met
with
cesar
chavez
because
he
drew
such
accolades
from
individuals
like
martin
luther
king
and
kennedy,
because
it
was
such
a
significant
and
impactful
strike
because
it
was
non-violent
and
he
was
able
to
move
not
just
on
jose,
not
just
california
but
the
entire
world
and
drew
attention
to
the
plight
of
the
farmworkers
and
and
we're
seeing
it
now
that
it's
taking
a
pandemic,
not
a
little
farmworker
like
cesar
chavez,
but
a
pandemic
to
suddenly
draw
attention
again
to
the
farmworkers
and
what
they
bring
to
us.
H
As
we
love
our
organic
little
juices
when
we
do
a
cleanse
once
a
year.
So
so
you
know
pal
sits
in
the
middle
of
east
side.
It's
right
next
to
emma
push
park
and
angel
can
give
us
a
little
bit
of
history
regarding
that.
But
when,
when
the
family
died,
she
she
bequested.
H
She
left
this
beautiful
working
farm
to
to
the
city
of
san
jose,
good
friends
with
another
woman
just
across
the
way
who
left
beautiful,
overfelt
gardens,
who
is
also,
which
is
also
a
little
under
invested,
but
very
that's
been
kept
up
just
by
volunteers
almost,
and
so,
when
we
think
of
master
planning.
I
love
us
we're
really
to
look
at
all
the
historical
place,
making
opportunities
that
we
have
and
how
we
envision
all
these
different
corridors
and
how
we
connect
the
dots
for
people
by
the
way.
H
Let's
not
forget
famous
king
and
story,
I
know
that
I
keep
saying
it:
low
riders
were
birthed
in
l.a
bahahaha.
We
gave
it
the
international
platform
that
it
is
and
all
the
way
in
into
japan
and
china,
and
all
the
beautiful
asian
countries
that
love
our
low
riders.
H
They
gave
it
the
the
the
international
platform
that
it
has
now
and,
and
so
the
low
rider
movement,
and
it
was
a
movement
and
it's
coming
back
by
the
way
folks
was
really
was
really
highlighted
and
given
its
its
its
fame
and
glory
by
a
low
rider
magazine
that
was
birthed
here
in
san
jose.
That
was
that
was
really
highlighted
on
king
and
story,
and
so
we
should
have
again
place
making
opportunities
and
what
is
that
called
the
whatever
it's
called
where
you?
H
What
is
it
you
all
techies
know
what
I'm
talking
about
when
you
can
find
it
in
geo,
finding
or
whatever
it
is,
and
so
beautification
that's
what
it
is.
And-
and
so
I
and
I
didn't
know
this,
but
just
again-
two
blocks
down
from
pal
stadium
is
a
very
well-known
little
teeny
weeny
skate
boarding
park
and
the
reason
why
it's
so
famous
is
why
mr
angel
rios
who
skates
there.
E
A
lot
of
famous
well
there's
been
multiple
famous
skateboarders.
H
Yep
multiple
famous
skateboarders,
including
our
very
own,
homegrown
birthed,
and
raised
on
the
east
side
of
san
jose,
a
gentleman
that
my
son
was
following
way
before
I
even
got
into
council.
Suddenly,
just
you
know,
I
I
you
know
when
I
was
inducted
into
the
eastside
hall
of
fame.
My
children
were
so
excited
to
get
there.
I
thought
it
was
all
because
of
me
nope.
It
was
because
mr
rojas
was
being
inducted
and
there's
no
pictures
of
me
with
my
children.
H
We
need
to
make
sure
that
we
remind
them
of
what
many
things
they
have
to
be
proud
of,
and
we
have
an
obligation
as
a
city
and
city
city
leaders,
whether
you're
representing
the
east
side,
the
west
side,
the
south
side,
central
side,
beautiful
almaden
valley,
cambrian,
willow,
glen,
to
always
make
sure
that
we
let
our
children
know
that
every
side
of
the
town
has
something
to
be
proud
of.
And
of
course,
the
east
side
because
of
its
rich,
diverse
history
has
so
much
to
be
proud
of.
H
And
if
we're
going
to
invest
in
pal-
and
I
know
that
we
will-
because
I
know
that
in
other
areas
we
are
making
way
for
sports
complexes,
and
private
companies
are
doing
the
same.
That
we
have
an
opportunity
to
revive
pal
to
bring
it
back
to
what
it
used
to
be.
And
I
think
even
more
so.
But
we
need
to
tie
in
all
of
these
other
pieces
that
I
think
go
hand
in
hand
with
what
pal
is
and
so
to
be
able
to
do.
So.
H
I
think,
brings
about
a
a
a
wealth
and
a
richness
that
isn't
just
about
pal.
But
it's
about
how
pal
fits
into
this
bigger
puzzle.
It's
like
adding
depth
of
flavors
to
a
stew.
It's
not
just
something!
That's
flat,
and
you
know
it's
not
just
salt
and
pepper,
but
it's
all
the
other
rich
flavors
that
we're
going
to
add
to
it,
and
I
think
that
with
emma
push
park
with
guadalupe
church
with
a
moxa,
that's
right
there.
H
That
is
just
begging
for
us
to
come
in
and
and
give
it
a
fresh
coat
of
paint
with
the
skateboard
part
with
the
history
that
cesar
chavez
and
the
legacy
that
he
left
us
with.
Having
kennedy
been
there
and
all
of
the
other
history
that
I
can
go
on
and
on
and
on
and
all
our
leaders
that
have
been
burst
from
the
east
side.
H
I
think
that
we
just
have
a
lot
to
work
with,
and
it's
begging
us
begging
us
to
jump
in
there
and
really
bring
it
to
life
by
the
way.
I
also
just
want
to
mention
that
that
across
the
street
is
rancho
golf
and
whatever
it
is
that
we
do
to
to
encourage
children
to
have
a
very
active
life,
children
and
adults
at
pal.
At
emma
push
park
at
rancho
golf
and
at
the
skateboard
park,
I
think
that
we
are
in
a
position
to
be
able
to
do
so.
So
with
that.
H
Thank
you.
So
much
shannon
welcome
what
an
exciting
project
I
just
gave
you
a
whole
bunch
of
stuff,
and
I
hope
that
we're
all
gonna
just
really
run
with
it.
So
thank
you
so
much
by
the
way.
The
the
last
thing
I
just
want
to
add
chair
in
terms
of
this
hybrid
model.
H
What
I
didn't
see
here
and
I'm
hoping
to
see
here
and
council
member
esparza
mentioned
it,
so
I'm
going
to
echo
it
I'd
really
like
to
see
not
just
a
multi-year
plan,
but
really
goals
and
matrix.
In
other
words,
our
board
needs
to
have
very
you
know.
In
order
to
be
able
to
set
them
up,
for
success
is
what
are
the
specific
goals.
H
So
if
their
role
is
in
fundraising,
for
example,
what
is
the
goal
on
a
quarterly
basis
that
we
have,
in
terms
of
an
expectation
goals
set
up
for
fundraising
in
other
boards
that
I've
set
on
we've
had
goals?
You
know
250
000
a
year
that
we
expected
to
raise
for
non-profit
organizations
in
order
to
keep
the
lights
on
in
order
to
keep
the
fields
green.
H
What
is
it-
and
I
don't
know
what
that
is-
I
don't
know
what
that
number
is,
because
I
don't
know
what
what
it's
going
to
take
to
bring
low
cost
and
free
programming
to
our
most
most
deserving
children.
But
we
should
be
looking
at
a
budget
that
is
not
just
dependent
on
the
city
but
is
also
supplemented
and
run
by
the
board.
H
That
is
going
to
be
instrumental
in
making
sure
that
we
get
the
programming
up
and
running
and
is
is
available
to
all
our
deserving
children.
So
I
think
that
we
need
to
set
very
concrete
goals
and
a
matrix
that
we
check
in
not
on
a
yearly
basis
at
nsc,
but
I
think
we
should
come
back
on
a
quarterly
basis
so
that
we
can
have
some
sort
of
of
oversight
to
to
the
achievement
of
these
goals.
A
Great
suggestion,
councilmember
carrasco,
so
when
we
call
for
a
motion,
I
hope
that
my
colleagues
can
consider
that
in
in
the
motion
for
for
reports
back
to
nsc
to
regarding
that
milestone,
matrix
that
you're
referring
to
and
that
will
go
in
the
agreement
that
john
mentioned
earlier.
A
Thank
you
and
council
member
spotify.
Did
you
have
a
question
once
a
I
saw,
your
okay,
wonderful
or
if
there
are
no
more
questions,
I
am
just
going
to
ask.
I'm
actually
really
grateful
to
all
the
questions
that
have
already
been
asked
very
thorough.
My
colleagues
do
a
wonderful
job
in
ensuring
that
we
think
ahead
of
our
particular
respective
communities
and
what
they've
been
asking
us
to
do,
and
so
thank
you
for
all
the
questions
they
kind
of
kind
of
asked
them
already.
A
For
me,
the
the
only
one
that
I
didn't
catch
was
what
was
the
master
plan
process?
I'm
really
glad
to
see
that
that
we
have
the
master
plan
funding,
because
master
plans
alone
are
just
really.
You
know
it's
a
hefty
lift
and
if
we
don't
have
that,
we
can't
begin
a
real
process
with
our
community,
and
so
I'm
really
glad
that
the
funding
is
there.
What
is
that
process?
What
does
the
timeline
look
like
for
the
master
plan.
D
J
Sure
yeah,
we
did
start
looking
at
it
at
this
project
in
the
spring
and
then
got
waylaid
through
pandemic,
but
our
approach
and
we've
heard
you
know
councilmember
carrasco's
interest
before
and
that
you
know
she
has
expressed
interest
and
for
having
this
master
plan,
be
a
little
more
holistic
than
normal
and
kind
of
taking
in
more.
J
You
know
acknowledging
more
deeply
the
the
context
of
the
area,
so
that's
definitely
part
of
our
plan,
but
our
plan
is
to
you
know
we
develop,
base
mapping
and
just
get
good
information
about
the
site,
evaluate
the
condition
of
existing
facilities
and
then
we'll
do
community
meetings.
Usually
we
do
three.
The
first
one
is
just
sort
of
engaging
the
community
around
the
site
and
what's
there,
this
site
also
has
the
the
need
to
acknowledge
and
honor
proof
farm
park
right
and
the
dynamic
between
those
two
spaces
as
well.
J
So
so
we'll
seek
out
to
do
community
engagement.
Our
initial
meeting
is
just
kind
of
fact-finding
and
gathering
information
about
what
people
would
want
to
see.
Then
the
consultants
will
go
and
develop
a
couple
of
different
scenarios
and
layouts
and
and
ideas
of
what
we
might
want
to
do
with
the
space
and
then
we'll
come
back
to
the
community
with
those
concepts
and
get
feedback
and
then
they'll
take
those.
J
So,
and
I
currently
don't
have
a
schedule
for
that,
I'm
so
sorry,
I'm
actually
slated
at
the
end
of
this
month
to
go
through
projects
with
my
team
and
sort
of
set
our
priorities
for
the
next
six
months.
So
I'll
know
more
in
the
future
in
the
you
know
within
a
month
and
where
that's
going
to
fall
in
our
work
plan
for
this
year.
So.
D
Maybe
we
can
update
you
on
that
when
we
come
back
to
the
with
the
council
item,
we
can
just
let
the
folk
we'll
just
add
that
in
real
quick
as
a
piece
of
information.
A
Wonderful-
and
you
know
I-
I
know
that
right
now,
we
are
challenged
in
in
connecting
with
our
communities,
especially
our
hard
to
reach
communities,
and
so
I
know
that
I
don't
know
that
we
are
asking
for
it
right
away
during
covet
to
have
that
engagement
process
begin.
Certainly
you
have
already.
You
know
the
steps
that
that
are
part
of
the
master
planning
and
fact
finding
I'm
I'm
guessing
is
going
to
take
you
some
time.
A
Hopefully
it'll
match
up
with
the
the
time
frame
where
we're
all
able
to
connect
with
each
other
at
some
point
or
another.
Otherwise
I
think
the
the
a
really
good
source
is
always
the
schools,
because
they
are
constantly
connecting
with
us
parents
telling
us
don't
forget
to
zoom
this
and
don't
forget
the
blah
blah
blah.
So
you
have
our
attention
in
terms
of
parents,
but
I
know
it's
larger
community
that
has
a
long-term
interest
in
in
this.
A
Gem
has
been
as
it
has
been
referred
to,
because
I
think
it
is
it's
a
it's
a
gem
in
our
in
our
own
backyard.
A
The
only
other
question
that
I
have
is
what
what
what
is
the
status
in
terms
of
the
board?
Are
they
finding
themselves?
I
know
it's
a
hybrid.
We
made
that
recommendation
and
is
the
process
proving
to
be
a
lot
smoother
now
you
know:
are
they
finding
their
place
with
this
new
hybrid?
A
If
you
can
just
give
us
a
little
bit
of
it
that
insight
into
the
board,
because
I
know
we've
had
concerns.
Obviously
you
know
from
the
past,
so
we
just
want
to.
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
you
know
that
we're
on
the
right
path,
in
terms
of
you
know
if
we
need
to
modify
anything
that
we
know
about
it
now.
A
D
Sure,
yeah
and
and
shannon's
been
meeting
with
them
with
some
regularity,
so
shannon
feel
free
to
fill
in
any
blanks,
but
I
would
summarize
the
board
right
now
as
influx.
D
You
know
there
have
been
some
changes,
I
wouldn't
say
they're
operating
in
an
optimal
way,
and
you
know
some
of
those
very
goals
that
we
were
talking
about
earlier,
that
we're
going
to
incorporate
as
part
of
the
contract
are
going
to
try
to
address
those
issues
with
them.
I
think
they're
good
with
the
model
itself.
D
There's
probably
you
know,
I'm
sure
they
would
love
us
to
support
them
financially
more
than
we
are
or
were
or
that
or
than
we
are
planning
to,
but
right
now,
just
given
the
state
the
city
is
in.
This
was
at
least
a
factor
in
in
us.
You
know
what
we're
just
going
to
be
in
the
lead
here
for
this,
because
right
now
we're
just
not
in
a
position
to
be
handing
away
a
bunch
of
money
to
them.
D
At
this
point
you
know
the
idea
is
to
get
them
to
be
able
to
raise
enough
money
to
to
support
themselves.
Ultimately,
right,
that's
the
idea,
so
I
wouldn't
say
they're
in
the
best
space,
but
I
think
they're,
okay,
with
with
what
we've
come
up
with,
but
their
functionality
is,
is
more
questionable
shannon.
I
don't
know
if
you
want
to
add
anything.
F
I'll
add
that
we've
had
some
very
open
and
frank
conversations
about
the
steps
that
need
to
be
taken
and
improvements
and
changes,
and
that
they're
on
board
with
understanding
these.
These
need
to
take
place,
and
so
we're
right
at
the
beginning
of
of
understanding
that
there's
a
lot
of
building
to
be
done
here
and
understanding
that
it's
going
to
be
contractually
reflected
in
the
contract
as
well
as
in
their
bylaws.
And
we
they're
ready
to
do
the
work
to
move
forward
and
do
just
that.
A
Great
I
appreciate
it.
I
know
that
there's
been
a
lot
of
emergencies
that
are
taken
away
from
our
our
our
focus
and
I'm
I'm
expecting
that
this
is
going
to
take
some
time,
but
it
it
it's
better
to
work
out
those
kinks
now
and
and
shape
it
for
as
much
success
as
we
can,
and
so
I'm
grateful
for
that
and
council
member
esparza.
B
Yeah,
I
I
just
wanted
to
chime
in
because
I'm
the
pal
liaison-
and
so
I
I
agree
with
john
and
shannon's
assessment.
B
B
Those
would
be
developed
in
the
city's
agreement
with
pal,
and
so
it
took
a
lot
of
work
to
kind
of
get
to
this
point,
but
that,
in
my
opinion,
that
work
is
by
no
means
over.
In
fact
it's
just
kind
of
starting,
because
now
we
all
agree
that,
yes,
that
needs
to
get
done
and
and
that
that
work
will
be
incorporated
in
the
next
step
of
this
plant.
So
I
hope
that
helps.
A
Wonderful
wonderful,
thank
you
so
much
and
we're
a
little
bit
out
of
order
here.
I
apologize
to
our
public
who's
been
waiting
to
provide
comments.
Mr
beekman,
your
hand
is
raised.
Are
you
interested
in
providing.
K
Hi,
sorry,
it
took
a
while
to
unmute
that
I
found
it,
and
here
I
am
yeah.
I
would
like
to
comment
on
this
item
council
person
carrasco
offered
such
nice
words
that
I
just
it
just
inspired
me
to
want
to
offer
my
own
public
comment
at
this
time.
Thank
you
it's
my
feeling
that
you
know
I.
I
haven't
been
clear
exactly
the
story
of
cesar
chavez
in
san
jose
lately.
K
I
know
he
had
grown
up
here
and
I
know
his
house
is
somewhere
his
old
house
just
used
to
be
up
somewhere
off
jackson.
I
think-
and
you
know
I
I
know
dolores
huerta
had
done
some
really
important
initial
community
activism
work
in
san
jose.
That's
where
she
learned
her
good
skills
and
practices,
and
you
know
that's
vitally
important
and
for
you
to
explain
you
know
I
think
robert
kennedy
was
went
to
the
church.
K
I
can't
remember
over
on
san
antonio.
I
think
I
can't
remember
its
name
but,
and
you
know
those
kind
of
reminders.
I
know
it's
been
kind
of
a
tough
issue
in
san
jose
trying
to
define
cesar
chavez
and,
and
I
felt
council
person-
crossfield
gave
it
a
nice
feeling
and
energy.
I
mean
I've
learned
really
important
activist
skills
of
dolores
huerta
in
her
work,
her
initial
work
in
san
jose,
and
so
how
does
that
be
respected?
K
You
know,
and
it's
important
to
me
so
thank
you
and
with
30
seconds
I
wanted
to
ask
about.
Is
there
a
way
that
how
can
you
know
the
sro
programs,
their
their
of
the
school
systems,
we're
slowly
trying
to
end?
You
know
policing
of
schools.
The
police
want
to
be
a
part
of
the
community.
Some
way
is
the
pal
kind
of
stuff.
Is
that
the
answer,
sports,
leagues
and
and-
and
that's
just
a
question
to
think
about-
is,
I
hope,
we're
slowly
learning
to
ask
to
end
the
sro
programs.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you
so
much,
mr
beekman,
going
back
to
to
the
committee
time
for
motion
time.
J
So
moved
with
council
member
carrasco's
amendment
regarding
the
master,
the
milestone
agreement
and
master
plan
is
that
did
I
record
the
updates
yeah
yeah
in
a
quarterly
update?
Thank
you.
B
E
We
this
doesn't
need
to
be
referred
to
council,
but
I
didn't
want
to
clarify
the
motion
because
the
so
the
master
plan,
which
is
going
to
be
primarily
a
capital
master
plan,
that's
going
to
be
more
down
the
road,
so
this
additional
direction
around
quarterly
updates
is
that,
in
the
context
of
more
of
the
operational
work,
that's
going
to
be
done
short
term
in
the
more
immediate
future.
Or
are
we
talking
about
the
master
plan?
They
just
want
to
clarify
the
direction.
H
What
I
was
hoping
for
angel
is
a
an
update
once
this
hybrid
model
is
put
in
place
that
we
in
in
the
agreement
is
solidified
that
now
we
have
a
matrix
with
with
concrete
goals
and
objectives,
and
that
we
get
a
quarterly
update
on
on
that
progress,
got
it
okay,.
L
A
Awesome
all
right
so
moving
along,
we
only
have
two
items.
This
is
our
second
item
on
our
agenda
today.
This
is
the
update
on
digital
literacy,
literacy
and
public
technology
initiatives.
I
know
that
there's
a
lot
of
work
that
was
done
during
the
summer
and
actually
during
the
whole
year.
So
oh
there
we
are
jill,
wonderful,
welcome
and
please
take
it
away.
M
Thank
you
and
good
afternoon
chair
arenas,
members
of
the
committee,
as
you
said,
I'm
jill,
bourne
city
librarian,
and
it's
my
pleasure
to
be
here
today
to
introduce
a
cross-departmental
team
of
truly
fabulous
committed
staff
who
lead
the
work
of
digital
literacy,
programming
and
services
and
infrastructure
across
the
library
and
parks,
recreation
and
neighborhood
services
departments.
M
Now
this
has
been
an
annual
report
to
the
committee,
and
I
think
last
year
was
the
first
year
that
the
library
and
pr
s
actually
did
the
report
together.
I
think
this
joint
effort
reflects
the
ever-growing
importance
and
priority
of
digital
access,
affordability
and
adoption
for
our
communities
in
so
many
aspects
of
life,
and
our
recent
experiences
during
the
pandemic
have
shown
that
to
be
even
more
urgent.
I
I
I
So
here
we
have
a
list
of
all
of
the
initiatives
that
we'll
be
covering.
Today
we
will
be
going
over
the
coding,
5k
challenge,
the
wonder:
workshop
pilot,
various
device,
lending
pilots,
public
computing,
wi-fi
and
technology
upgrades
and
a
brief
overview
of
the
activities
of
the
digital
inclusion
branch
of
the
emergency
operations
center
next
slide.
I
So,
as
you
are
aware,
my
team
runs
many
of
sj
appeals,
stem
programs
and
initiatives,
including
our
coding,
5k
and
robotics
work,
reflecting
the
city's
commitment
to
increasing
the
availability
of
quality
stem
and
computer
science
programming.
The
coding
5k
challenge
is
designed
to
increase
access
to
coding,
focused
programs
and
deepen
the
quality
of
our
programming
through
the
use
of
expert
volunteers
embedded
curricula.
Our
original
goal
of
the
coding
5k
challenge
was
to
increase
our
capacity
to
serve
5
000
unduplicated
stuart
students
annually
by
the
year
2020,
which
is
a
goal
that
we
surpassed
in
2019.
I
I
Even
with
the
physical
closure
of
the
library,
we
were
able
to
host
248
coding
and
robotics
programs,
either
virtually
or
in
person
prior
to
the
closure,
serving
a
total
of
four
thousand
four
hundred
and
seventy
eight
students.
Over
the
course
of
the
year.
We
had
a
three
three
day:
swift
based
in
person
boot
camp
in
february
before
the
closure,
which
served
21
students
we
had
over
400
coding,
volunteers
that
provided
908
hours
of
service
and
overall
68
of
our
students
surveyed
are
excited
to
learn
more
about
computer
science,
robotics
and
coding
in
the
future.
I
All
of
this
is
available
through
sjpl's
coding,
5k
website
for
learners
of
all
levels.
Looking
forward
to
fiscal
year
2021,
we
will
focus
on
virtual
distance
learning
for
coding,
5k
programs
with
the
intent
to
resume
small
group
in-person
learning.
When
we
can,
we
will
continue
to
provide
access
to
the
learn.
As
you
go
correct
curricula
and
software.
I
We
are
looking
into
expanding
the
three-day
swift
boot
camp
series
to
seven
our
locations
either
virtually
or
in
person
depending
on
you,
where
we
are
in
this
new
normal
and
we
will
plan
to
work
on
a
promoting
coding,
5k
activities,
challenges
and
workshops,
particularly
to
students,
teachers
and
families
via
our
school
district
partnerships
as
a
way
to
augment
distance
learning.
That's
happening
in
schools
next
slide.
I
So
we
are
also
going
to
give
a
brief
update
on
the
wonder
workshops
pilot
today.
The
wonder
workshop
pilot
was
intended
to
be
integrated
into
the
existing
coding,
5k
structure
being
implemented
at
sjpl
and
also
at
prns,
and
would
have
included
working
with
branch
staff,
pr
staff
and
expert
volunteers
to
recruit
students
from
the
community
to
participate
in
the
programs.
I
Both
sjpl
and
prns
staff
participated
in
a
12-hour
online
training
course
via
the
wonder,
workshop's
website
to
learn
more
about
the
curricula
and
the
technology.
A
train.
The
trainer
model
was
then
created
for
staff
and
volunteers,
as
well
as
additional
training
to
ensure
procedural
consistency
and
data
collection
across
all
city-run
coding,
5k
offerings,
both
sjpl
and
prns
plan
to
implement
the
program
in
spring
of
2020.
I
Unfortunately,
the
shelter
in
place
order
necessitated
postponing
the
program
staff
has
researched
the
possibility
of
converting
and
hosting
virtual
versions
of
the
workshops.
However,
it
was
determined
that
wonder
workshops
do
not
really
have
the
capacity
to
be
transitioned
to
an
online
platform
due
to
the
necessity
of
physical
proximity
to
the
robots
and
other
educational
materials.
I
New
start
dates
of
the
workshops
will
be
identified
as
soon
as
possible,
and
we
are
looking
into
ways
that
we
could
potentially
roll
that
out
through
existing
programs
or
partnerships
as
appropriate
next
slide,
and
so
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
some
of
the
other
device.
Checkout
programs
that
I
mentioned
briefly
earlier,
acknowledging
and
addressing
the
digital
divide
in
our
community
sjpl
has
begun
to
pilot
a
laptop
kit
checkout
program
at
several
of
our
branch
locations
through
grant
funding
from
the
digital
inclusion
fund.
I
Sjpl
has
launched
the
program
at
five
of
our
express
pickup
locations.
The
locations
are
alum
rock
evergreen
educational
park
and
tully.
The
program
began
on
august
17
2020
and
a
total
of
35
devices
and
paired
hot
spots
are
available
to
be
checked
out
for
90
days
with
one
auto
renewal
of
30
days
available
per
user.
I
These
devices
are
available
on
a
first
come
first
serve
basis
for
patrons
that
have
been
referred
through
existing
sjpl
programs
that
serve
under
connected
or
unconnected
households,
programs
such
as
esl
groups,
citizenship,
citizenship
classes
and
our
career
online
high
school
program.
As
of
this
week,
all
of
the
devices
have
been
checked
out
to
families
and
students.
N
Good
afternoon,
laura
bouzou
recreation
superintendent
since
september
2018
prns
with
the
support
of
the
city
manager's
smart
city
team,
became
a
partner
in
the
att
tech
for
good
pilot,
one
of
the
three
equity
projects
of
the
smart
city
road
map.
The
goal
is
to
address
the
digital
divide
in
our
community
by
developing
and
implementing
strategies
to
increase
access
to
digital
devices,
internet
services
and
digital
literacy
programs.
N
As
a
result,
prns
developed
pilot
digital
inclusion
activities
made
possible
through
the
digital
inclusion
fund
and
the
att
tech
for
good
grant,
with
a
digital
inclusion
grant
from
the
california
emerging
technology
fund.
Prness
collaborated
with
three
school
districts:
campbell
union
oak
grove
and
evergreen
to
assist
families
with
the
enrollment
process
for
affordable
internet
services.
N
In
our
continued
commitment,
prns
staff
are
hosting
three
additional
events
in
the
surrounding
communities
of
franklin,
mckinley
and
elimrock
school
district
at
the
end
of
september
to
assist
additional
families
with
the
enrollment
process
for
affordable
internet
services
through
the
att
tech,
for
good
pilot
and
in
partnership
with
youth
connections,
foundation.
Prns
was
able
to
secure
100
digital
devices
for
five
community
centers
alma,
seven
trees,
mayfair,
roosevelt
and
ellen
rock,
where
young
people
and
older
adults
experience
digital
inequities.
N
J
J
My
team
has
been
working
with
laura
and
the
recreation
neighborhood
services
group
to
support
implementation
of
expanded
white
internet
service
in
our
community
centers,
as
well
as
expanded,
wi-fi
and
we've
been
working
through
this
with
support
of
the
digital
literacy
branch
or
the
eoc,
which
includes
some
of
our
folks
from
the
library
and
also
the
rns
staff.
J
So
we
have
been
upgrading
everywhere.
We
can
to
one
gigabit
service.
We
already
had
that
at
berryessa
and
roosevelt
we're
proceeding
with
southside
and
willow
glen
and
are
evaluating
baskin,
gardner
and
evergreen.
Also
for
evaluation
of
upgrade
of
internet
speed.
That's
allowed
us
to
expand
our
wi-fi
coverage
within
those
buildings
to
support
the
learning,
pods
and
work
that
laura
and
her
team
is
doing.
It'll
also
allow
us
to
expand
outdoor
wi-fi
coverage.
One
of
the
challenges
we've
had
is
expanding.
J
Outdoor
wi-fi
is
only
as
good
as
the
access
we
have
into
the
buildings
and
the
speed
of
our
wi-fi
into
our
speed
of
our
internet
access
in
the
building,
so
utilizing
cares,
act,
funding
and
at
t
the
att
partnerships.
The
digital
inclusion
branch
has
been
coordinating
expanded,
outdoor,
wi-fi
access
with
and
prioritizing
this
among
our
facilities
through
an
equity
lens
based
on
the
number
of
people
in
various
households,
percent
of
households
with
no
internet
service
percent
of
households
without
computers,
average
household
size,
population
density
and
the
like.
J
So
we
will
continue
this
work
working
to
upgrade
all
of
the
community
centers
and
and
the
neighborhood
partner
centers
as
well,
to
get
the
highest
level
of
service
that
we
can
both
inside
in
the
building
as
well
as
outside.
And
with
that
I
think
I
turn
it
back
to.
G
Library,
thanks
hi
everybody,
I'm
hap,
yielding
I'm
the
it
manager
for
san
jose
public
library.
G
G
These
are
at
least
part
of
what
we're
trying
to
replace
with
remote
program,
services
and
device
lending
regarding
our
wireless
connectivity,
the
330
000
individual
wireless
sessions,
detailed
numbers
for
those
were
also
in
the
memo,
so
you
may
have
noticed
that
the
numbers
weren't
zero
for
months
following
our
our
coveted
closure,
our
wi-fi
actually
remains
active
24x7
and
is
available
in
some
areas
surrounding
the
library.
It's
clear
that
our
customers
continue
to
utilize,
our
wi-fi
services
after
the
closure
and
in
a
very
real
way.
G
G
In
march,
we
needed
to
enable
staff
to
work
from
home
on
the
infrastructure
side
of
things
that
meant
designing
an
enterprise
solution
for
vpn
connections.
We
were
already
working
on
that
before
covid.
So
it's
a
good
thing.
We
used
an
open
source
tool
called
appropriately
enough
openvpn.
G
G
We
also
upgraded
the
phone
system
at
our
branches
to
verizon's,
hosted
ipsen
treks,
there's
still
five
branches
left
to
do,
but
we
were
able
to
adapt
the
phone
system
to
serve
as
call-in
lines
for
express
pickup
at
all
locations.
G
We
also
upgraded
our
catalog
server
to
the
latest
version
of
sierra.
This
included
an
enhanced
auto
renewal
capability
that
helps
eliminate
fines
during
this
stressful
time
and
there's
a
testing
environment.
Now
that
has
allowed
us
to
try
enhancements
before
rolling
them
out
in
the
production
environment,
avoiding
glitches
and
complications.
G
This
allows
for
up
to
300
participants
and
has
enhanced
features
to
protect
the
privacy
of
our
customers.
We
also
purchased
two
webinar
licenses
with
increased,
which
increased
the
number
of
participants
to
500
to
help
facilitate
remote
programs.
Our
help
desk
team
repurposed
over
100
mobile
devices
in
a
matter
of
days
to
provide
staff
the
ability
to
work
from
home.
I
Thank
you
hap.
We
also
wanted
to
bring
a
brief
reminder
before
the
council
members
that
fiscal
year
2020
2021
we'll
also
see
the
implementation
of
the
digital
literacy
quality
standards
which
were
developed
by
the
ad
hoc
committee
last
year
and
were
approved
by
full
city
council
on
may
19th
of
this
year.
I
The
fiscal
year
implementation
plan
includes
an
assessment
of
current
and
future
city,
digital
literacy
programming
by
utilizing
the
quality
standards
to
ensure
alignment
and
adherence
for
both
library
and
parks
and
rec,
and
ensuring
the
implementation
of
the
quality
standards
through
any
new
programs
funded
by
the
digital
inclusion
fund
grant
program
which
will
provide
digital
literacy
instruction
devices,
wi-fi
access,
affordable
internet
service,
enrollment
information
and
support
to
families
and
seniors
experiencing
digital
inequities.
M
Thank
you
guys
so
in
the
area
of
digital
inclusion.
As
you
know,
we've
been
working
on
the
digital
inclusion
branch
for
the
emergency
operations
center
and
the
city
council
approved
the
digital
inclusion
expenditure
plan
in
june
of
this
year,
and
then
approximately
8
300
hot
spots
were
distributed
to
schools
for
distribution
to
student
households
in
early
august
under
this
umbrella
of
sj
access.
M
In
addition,
the
schedules
for
implementing
outdoor
wi-fi
at
city
facilities
are
moving
forward
and
the
rfp
processes
for
access
east
side,
community
wi-fi
program
is
also
advancing
and
we
plan
to
have
a
full
update
on
those
for
city
council
at
the
september
22nd
city
council
meeting,
and
with
that
I
know
that
john
cecirelli,
from
the
pr
s
department-
and
I
and
our
wonderful
fabulous
team
are
all
here
to
answer
questions.
Thank
you.
So
much
for
your
time.
A
Thank
you.
Thank
you
for
the
presentation.
We
can
tell
that
with
the
multiple
presenters
that
these
efforts
are
braided
through
and
I'm
sure
that
our
community
feels
them
as
slim
seamlessly
as
possible,
because
you
could.
I
can
appreciate
all
the
cooperation
you
all
have
together,
so
I'm
going
to
go
to
public
comment.
First
before
I
look
to
my
council
colleagues,
mr
beekman.
K
Thank
you
for
being
able
to
respond
happy
thursday
to
speak
on
this
item.
I
suppose
you
know
I
should
give
it
my
usual,
my
regular,
my
hopes,
my
dreams.
You
know
for
as
much
as
you're
building
a
digital
inclusion
future
for
local
communities
and
especially
the
east
side.
You
know
I.
K
I
think
it
has
to
be
important,
that
you
talk
to
the
school
children,
about
the
ideas
of
what
accountability
for
digital
inclusion
means
and
what
the
accountability
for
the
technology
means,
and
that's
that's,
like
part
of
the
important
lessons
of
this
whole
process,
we're
learning
about
and
going
through
together
at
this
time
and
and
what
is
openness
with
technology?
What
are
the
guideline
process
that
that
creates
public
policy
practices?
K
What
can
be
good,
open
public
policy
practices
to
explain
that
to
kids,
you
know,
and
and
and
in
the
process
of
this
entire
digital
inclusion
process?
That's
what's
inclusive
and
you
know
we
have
you
know
and
how
we,
just
I
don't
know,
resolve
ourselves
to
what
we're
doing,
basically,
because
we're
in
a
big
experiment
again
with
our
lives,
to
see
how.
If
this
sort
of
program
can
work
and
there's
you
know,
there
is
important
issues
at
stake.
K
The
west
side
actually
needs
digital
help
too
I've
heard,
and
but
you
know,
I
understand
the
points
of
the
arguments
for
the
digital
inclusion
issue
and
I
just
hope
you
include
open
public
policy
ideas
as
part
of
that
digital
inclusion
process.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you,
mr
beekman,
and
next
we
have
tony.
I
think
we
I'm
sorry,
I'm
having
a
hard
time.
Looking
at
my
panel
list,
oh,
we
have
our
school
board
member
one
of
the
school
board
members
who
initiated
and
prompted
us
to
look
at.
We
look
at
our
digital
inclusion,
trustee
chavez.
C
Hello
good
afternoon,
thank
you.
Thank
you
for
the
time:
lorena
chavez,
east
side,
union,
high
school
district,
trustee
and
co-founder
of
the
digital
equity
coalition.
First
off.
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
so
much
for
everything
that
y'all
are
doing.
It
is
very
clear
that
a
lot
of
progress
has
been
made
throughout
the
city
in
different
areas,
so
I
I
want
to
appreciate
the
work
jill.
I
know
your
team
really
took
a
load
sometime
in
this
to
take
on
this
project.
Council
members,
thank
you
for
your
ongoing
collaboration
and
advocacy.
C
At
the
end
of
the
I
heard
you
say
that
there
is
going
to
be
an
update
september
22nd,
and
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that,
if
there's
anything
that
we
can
do
as
a
district
to
support
or
engage
and
make
sure
that
we
are
on
time
to
getting
all
of
our
schools
connected,
because
I
think
we
have
like
four
or
five
to
go,
not
including
yb
who's
already
set
to
be
done
in
december
and
as
much
as
possible.
C
Try
to
keep
it
in
one
phase,
because
the
issue
had
been
the
amount
of
time
that
it
has
taken
to
get
schools
to
get
connected.
And
I
know
eastside
is
ready
to
engage
and
we
haven't
heard
anything
in
terms
of
what
we
can
do
as
a
district
and
so
just
wanted
to
offer
the
support.
And
I
was
hoping
to
get
a
little
bit
more
progress
updates
on
what
is
happening,
because
I
think
the
rfp
was
going
to
be
presented
soon,
so
that
we
know
what
the
timeline
is
and
again
hoping.
C
A
Thank
you.
Thank
you
chavez.
This
is
an
opportunity
for
us
to
hear
from
our
our
public,
and
so
after
public
comment,
I
I
will
ask
the
question
from
our
our
staff.
In
the
meantime,
please
hang
in
there
to
hear
the
response,
and
next
I
will
call
on
caller
with
the
phone
number
starting
at
408
373.
B
Say
the
first
three
numbers
do
the
last
four,
because
a
lot
of
people
will
start
with
one
four
zero.
Eight.
So
do
the
last
four.
No.
A
A
Okay,
so
telephone,
starting
with
the
three
seven
three.
A
If
you
have
the
a
phone
number,
starting
with
the
numbers,
three
seven
three
go
ahead
and
mute
yourself:
hello,
hi,
welcome
hello.
A
O
Yeah
yeah,
okay,
it's
great
that
you're
doing
all
the
digital
things
this
kid
and
it's
wonderful
that
you're
doing
it,
but
as
a
taxpayer,
people
have
to
start
affording
their
own
things
and
if
you're
gonna
give
it
away
to
these
children
and
their
parents,
you
should
let
them
know
where
it
came
from
that
it's
not
free
it's
paid
for
by
the
taxpayer,
and
I
find
I
think
it's
very
arrogant.
O
I
mean
I
think,
people
that
work
for
the
government
just
think
that
there's
just
a
never-ending
amount
of
money
and
that
as
they
give
it
away,
they're
the
heroes
that
money
came
from
somewhere,
and
I
don't
think
that
that
the
candy
that
that
this
city
council
cares
less
about
a
taxpayer.
You
guys
never
disapprove
anything.
O
I
pay,
but
I
pay
a
bundle
for
the
internet
where
I
live
and
we
don't
even
we
don't
even
get
fiber
optic
because
well
we
always
get
the
worst
utilities
in
this
in
this
city
and
by
the
way,
speaking
of
terrible
things,
the
zoom
that
you
guys
try
to
provide
is
awful.
I
called
in
the
800
number
right
now
and
it
was
a
pile
of
crap.
O
I
had
to
use
a
213
area
code
number
that
tony
tabor
has
given
me
when
I
called
in
the
88
number
it
it
just
rang
directly
in
you
know,
so
I
mean
you
guys
are
going
to
give
away
free
internet,
you
better
fix
what
you
guys
have
there,
that
that
involves
technology
and
once
again
let
the
children
know
where
these
free
things
come
from.
Let
them
know
it's
not
free
the
money
just
doesn't
fall
from
the
sky
and
I
think
I
think
it's
ridiculous.
O
A
Together,
thank
you,
sir,
and
I
believe.
A
Tony,
I
think
if
we
can
mute
that
a
number
I
believe
somebody
by
the
name
of
garina
had
raised
his
or
her
hand.
Are
you
still
interested
in
speaking.
A
Okay,
I
just
wasn't
sure.
Sometimes
my
mouse
does
all
kinds
of
crazy
things
when
I'm
zooming.
B
B
A
So
much
tony
so
karina
if
you
are
still
interested
in
speaking,
we
are
here
to
hear
you.
Otherwise
we
will
move
on
back
to
the
committee.
A
All
right,
I'm
going
to
take
that
as
a
no.
So
going
back
to
our
committee,
let
me
see
our
councilmember
esparza.
B
B
It's
somewhat,
not
muted,
okay,
so
first
off,
thank
you
for
all
the
hard
work
that
has
gotten
to
this
point.
We
council
member
arenas,
carrasco
and
I
were
with
supervisor
cindy
chavez
at
the
franklin
mckinley
school
district
on
the
day.
They
got
500
hot
spots
and
they
actually
were
sort
of
packaging
them
and
getting
them
organized
and
got
them
started,
getting
them
out
to
families
the
next
day,
and
so
it's
really
appreciated
and
and
just
to
clarify
the
wi-fi
work
is
paid
by
taxpayers.
B
It's
paid
by
east
side,
taxpayers
who
voted
on
an
east
side,
union
high
school
district
bond,
so
east
side
residents
overwhelmingly
voted
to
tax
themselves
to
pay
for
technology
for
community
that
they
know,
needs
it,
and
fortunately
we
are
able
to
use
the
cares
act
for
a
lot
of
these
devices
to
address
the
inequities
now
that
schools
are
going
online.
B
So
I
wanted
to
ask
a
question
about
the
laptop
checkout
pilot.
Previously,
seven
trees
was
on
the
list
for
device
checkout
pilot.
Seven
trees
is
in
one
of
the
city's
poorest
areas
and
it's
next
to
andrew
hill,
high
school
sylvandale
middle
school,
a
rocket
ship
spark
and
two
elementary
schools.
So
there's
definitely
the
community
that
could
benefit
from
the
laptop
check
out
pilot.
What
is
the
status
on
that.
M
Yeah,
thank
you
for
the
question.
Councilmember,
the
the
seventh
church
community
center
and
library
has
been
utilized
by
the
city
for
other
or
just
emergency
response
efforts,
and
so
we
had
not
rolled
out
express
checkout
at
that
location
yet,
but
it
is
planned
to
roll
out
on
september
28th,
and
so
at
that
time
the
we
will
also
be
rolling
out
the
express
or
the
checkout
of
of
devices
and
we're
pulling
that
information
together
for
your
office.
Okay,
okay,
so
thank
you.
M
There
was
you
know
due
to
due
to
the
need
for
programs
being
distanced
and
enough
ppe,
we
sort
of
rolled
out
the
express
pickup
at
locations.
We
started
with
less
than
10
and
we've
been
adding
a
few
every
week,
and
so
that's
the
delay.
Okay,.
B
Yeah,
thank
you.
It's
just
it's
an
extremely
needy
community
in
the
city.
A
lot
of
people
see
how
south
it
is,
but
it's
still
east
side
and
and
it's
it's
a
community
has
a
lot
of
challenges
and
fortunately
the
center
is
next
to
a
lot
of
schools.
So
there's
a
good
synergy
there
with
the
all
the
schools
nearby.
So
okay,
that's
it
for
me.
Thank
you.
A
Wonderful,
thank
you,
council,
member
he-madness.
L
L
Can
I
ask
my
question
now
absolutely
please
thank
you
so
much
for
for
waiting
for
me.
I
had
to
step
away
for
a
moment
so
so
with
that,
I
don't
know
if
my
question
was
asked,
so
I
I
apologize
if
it
was,
and
this
is
for
jill-
and
I
guess
you
know
I
know
you're
with
the
library,
obviously
but
anyone
else
with
the
parks
department.
L
What
I'm
wondering
is
can
can
you
remind
me
what
type
of
data
and
information
you're
capturing
with
these
families
we're
helping
I'm
thinking
more
along
the
lines
of
demographics
income
like?
Can
you
remind
me
sort
of
what
we're
capturing
as
we
as
we
help
some
of
these
folks.
M
Yeah,
so
there's
there's
two
answers.
Really
one
is
around
the
digital
inclusion
fund
work
or
the
I'm
sorry,
the
digital
inclusion,
eoc
work
and
the
the
emergency
hotspot
project,
and
with
that
we're
working
closely
with
the
schools
and
with
partner
agencies,
and
there
is
an
expectation
around
collecting
some
data,
but
it's
really
around
ensuring
that
the
hot
spots
are
getting
into
the
households
where
they're
most
needed.
M
So
you
know
we
worked
with
the
county
office
of
vet
and
the
districts
to
identify
that,
for
instance,
the
households
will
be,
you
know,
qualify
for
free
and
reduced
lunch,
be
part
of
some
of
their
special
programs
for
children
and
households
in
need,
and
that
sort
of
thing
we're
not
collecting,
necessarily
demographic
information
in
that
emergency
program,
and
that
was
because
to
work
closely
with
the
schools.
You
know
there
is
a
lot.
M
There
are
a
lot
of
requirements
for
them
around
privacy
for
their
students,
but
that
said,
the
work
that
you
heard
about
with
the
digital
literacy
quality
standards
that
council
just
approved
in
may
both
departments.
You
know
that
that
those
quality
standards
do
have
embedded
in
them
expectations
for
data
collection
and
reporting,
and
in
that
we
have
specified
for
all
programs
that
have
quality
standards,
that
we
get
a
sense
of
the
location
of
where
folks
live,
not
their
address.
M
But
you
know
the
district,
the
neighborhood,
the
that
we
collect
data
whenever
possible
by
by
gender
race
by
grade
level
attainment
depending
on
if
it's
a
reading
or
a
math
program
or
whatever,
and
that's
really
to
understand
the
efficacy
of
the
programs
and
that
we
work
with
the
schools
to
understand
you
know
is
attending
a
program
at
a
library
actually
helping
you
do
better
in
computer
science
at
school
or
math.
Is
it
helping
with
attendance
because
you're
more
engaged?
So
that's
that's.
M
So
we
do
have
a
certain
level
of
reporting
required
there,
and
I
think
that
we
have
always
said
we
would
we
report
back
mid-year
and
and
do
an
annual
report
to
this
committee,
about
the
whatever
data
we're
able
to
compile.
M
Well,
the
digital
literacy
quality
standards
are
shared
across
the
departments,
but
I
actually
would
love
for
to
give
our
partners
and
pns
a
chance
to
add
anything
that
I
may
have
left
off.
N
Yes,
just
as
joe
mentioned,
we
also
are
adhering
to
the
digital
quality
standards
throughout
our
our
digital
inclusion
and
literacy
work,
and
we
are
also
looking
at
capturing
demographic
data.
We
have
never
had
a
lending
library
with
digital
devices,
so
this
is
new
to
us.
So
we're
excited
to
be
partnering
with
the
library,
but
as
part
of
that
process,
we
will
be
collecting
demographic
data.
No
personal,
specific
information
about
individuals,
but
just
to
have
an
understanding
of
who
is
the
population
that
we're
serving
and.
L
Is
there
is
there
any
data,
and
this
is
just
to
both
of
you,
but
is
there
any
data
that
you
think
could
help
us
better
understand
sort
of
you
know
disaggregate
some
of
the
some
of
the
folks
we're
touching
in
this
program
and
to
the
extent
that
could
be
used
to
further
some
of
the
work
in
other
ways?
L
N
No,
I
think
it's
an
area
that
we're
both
interested
in
exploring
further.
I
think,
in
order
to
really
understand
who
we're
serving,
we
need
to
ask
those
questions
right
and
I
think,
building
those
relationships
in
the
community
that
allow
people
to
feel
comfortable
to
provide
that
information
is
key
and
so
working
with
our
community
center
staff
and
our
library
staff
is
really
important.
N
Oftentimes
people
feel
a
little
apprehensive
about
sharing
personal
information,
even
if
we
assure
them
a
hundred
times
that
we're
not
gonna,
share
their
names
or
addresses
it's
just
the
climate,
and
you
know
they
may
have
personal
reasons
for
that,
and
so
the
more
that
we
can
ensure
people
assure
people
that
the
information
that
we're
pro
that
we
are
collecting
and
gathering
from
all
the
participants
that
we
serve
is
really
to
ensure
that
we're
providing
them
the
services
that
they
need
and
really
to
ensure
that
we're
providing
high
quality
services.
N
M
I
would
just
add
to
that,
and
some
of
the
things
that
we've
talked
about
was
that
that
having
the
ability
to
to
check
out
devices
now
that
go
into
a
person's
home
actually
gives
us
a
way
to
reach
folks
with
programs
that
in
the
past,
we
would
just
open
our
doors
and
serve
whoever
came
to
us,
and
so
it
gives
us
the
opportunity
to
really
target
youth,
for
instance,
with
our
coding
5k
program
or
with
the
18
t
tech
for
good
program
that
we
could
really
target
folks
that
are
new
to
the
technology,
perhaps
and
could
really
benefit
from
those
programs.
M
So
to
answer
you
know
part
of
your
question.
One
of
the
challenges
has
been
that,
while
we
locate
programs
in
specific
neighborhoods,
we
don't
necessarily
turn
people
away
if
they
came
from
a
different,
neighborhood
right
and
so
we're
trying
to
we've
always
been
trying
to
put
the
services
where
they
could
be
used
by
the
local
families
and
yet
folks
come
from
all
over
the
city
to
utilize.
Our
services,
which.
L
M
We
are
working.
We
are
working
to
do
that
and
to
also
work
with
our
school
districts
to
whenever
possible,
to
get
disaggregate
to
get
aggregated
data
so
that
we
can
understand
the
impact
again
of
attending
a
program.
And
what
does
that
mean
for
the
schools?
We
did.
A
pilot
with
our
sj
learns
programming
where
we
were
able
to
show,
but
you
know
how
you
know:
how
does
the
program
successful
for
you
know
by
gender?
Is
it
you
know?
M
Do
girls
do
better
in
school
than
boys
do
do
boys
do
better
and
some
things
than
girls
do
and
in
one
program
we
found
that
for
the
most
part,
everybody
was
was
building
on
their
skills,
but
there
was
one
subset
that
really
needed
more
support,
and
so
that
data
allowed
us
to
see
that.
L
So
so
jill
just
so
I
hate
to
you
know
we
sometimes
hear
that
language
matters
right,
and
so
I
I
as
you're
talking
when
you
say
we,
I
think
I'm
trying
to
remember
the
exact
word
to
use,
but
we're
trying.
I
think
the
word
was
something
along
the
lines:
we're
trying
to
capture
that
data,
I
think,
is
what
I
heard
so
so
is
that
to
say
that
we're
currently
not
doing
it
but
we're
aspiring
to
do
it
like.
Is
there
like
a
mechanism
in
place
at
the
beginning?
M
L
M
If
there
are
cases
where
people
don't
want
to
provide
that
information,
we
would
not,
we
wouldn't
necessarily
require,
but
we
are
trying
to
build
every
system
possible
to
gather
it
so
that
we
can
analyze
the
impacts
of
our
program.
L
L
I
think
it's
wonderful
that,
for
example,
it
seems
to
me-
and
it's
probably
an
over
generalization,
but
it
seems
to
me
that
in
the
indian
community,
for
example,
they
really
take
advantage
of
a
lot
of
these
technology
programs,
and
you
know
I've
seen
it
out
in
the
community
and
you
know
so
I
think
that's
great.
I
think
it's
wonderful.
L
I
often
you
know
having
kids
my
own
having
you
know
being
latino.
I
often
tell
myself,
I
wish
more
latino
kids
would
participate
in
some
of
these
programs
right,
and
so
some
of
the
information
that
comes
to
mind
for
me
is
like
I
want
to
know
like
are
there?
You
know
out
of
the
hundred
kids
that
are
participating
are
80
of
the
kids,
indian
and
20
of
the
kids
latino,
and
then
why
is
that
the
case
right?
L
And
so
those
are
the
reasons
I'm
asking
that,
because
those
are
the
things
that
come
to
mind
for
me,
sometimes
and
and
in
this
particular
case.
But
the
reason
I'm
asking
is,
I
know
that
we
as
a
government
or
you
know
the
city
of
san
jose-
are
precluded
from
using
certain
data
for
certain
reasons
and
targeting
sort
of
you
know,
there's
a
lot
of
legalities
around
sort
of
the
usage
of
race
and
things
of
that
nature
right.
L
I
know
there
was
a
very
thorough
conversation
along
prop
prop
16
and
and
hopefully
for
the
in
my
mind,
the
eventual
passage
of
that
is
going
to
allow
us
to
use
this
information
a
little
bit
more
purposefully.
So
the
reason
I'm
asking
is
I
don't.
I
anticipate
that
I
hope
that's
going
to
pass
by
the
voters,
but
I
don't
want
to
wait
till
after
it
passes
to
start
collecting
the
data.
L
So
that
way,
when
we
can
flip
that
switch
on
and
we're
able
to
use
this
data
to
focus
more
more
more
concretely
in
certain
areas
and
on
certain
people
that
we're
able
to
use
it,
then-
and
so
that's
the
reason,
I'm
asking
I'm
just
I'm
just
hoping
that
we're
given
some
of
the
roadblocks
and
challenges
that
we're
doing
everything
we
can
now.
In
anticipation
of
that
passage
and
if
it
doesn't
pass,
it
doesn't
pass.
L
M
G
L
And
I
know
that
some
folks
or
maybe
maybe
have
some
concerns
about
sharing
it,
but,
for
example,
I
would
hope-
and
you
know
there
may
be
sort
of
other
thoughts
on
this.
I
imagine,
but
I
would
hope,
for
example,
there's
a
person
from
an
employee
from
the
library
or
from
the
parks
department
sitting
at
a
table.
Family
comes
up,
maybe
they're,
reluctant
to
provide
that
information,
but
the
person
taking
the
application
hears
the
mom
and
the
kids
speaking
spanish.
L
But
if
we,
I
don't
know
if
we're
able
to
if
we're
able
to
take
pro
those
type
of
proactive
steps,
but
I
think
it
requires
that
type
of
initiative
to
really
try
to
do
everything
we
can
to
capture
some
of
that,
even
even
though
it
may
be
imperfect
at
times
I
imagine
but
but
but
I
I
anyway,
I
thought
it
was
important
enough
to
mention,
and
I
really
appreciate
your
efforts.
L
I
know
it's
not
easy
and
I
didn't
I
was
thinking
about
the
right
word
to
use
when
I
said
fuzzy,
but
because
I
sent
some
some
some,
not
hesitation,
but
you
know
what
I
mean,
because
I
know
it's
not
perfect
right
and
I
think
you're
yeah.
L
I
commend
you
on
everything
you're
doing
it's
it's,
but
I
just
thought
I
would
ask
that
question
because
I
think
I
think
it's
important
that
we
have
a
very
clear
road
ahead
on
how
we're
going
to
address
some
of
this
stuff
going
forward
and
I
think,
you're
doing
a
great
job.
I
just
always
think
there's
ways
to
better
incorporate
some
of
the
folks
that
are
left
out
on
the
sideline
not
participating.
A
Thank
you
councilmember,
seeing
that
there's
no
more
hands
and
councilmember.
As
far
as
I
I
think,
that's
a
hand
that
was
left
over
from
yeah.
That's.
A
Don't
want
to
skip
you,
I
appreciate
the
conversation
and
actually
I'll
start
where
councilmember
jimenez
left
off
in
terms
of
race,
because
there
was
a
question
for
me
and
about
how
you're,
integrating
your
diversity
and
equity
manager
that
we
got
to
meet
actually
during
our
last
nsc
meeting
and
which
was
a
really
nice
surprise,
and
in
our
at
last
nsc
meeting.
We
had
a
lot
of
questions
about
how
do
we?
A
What
are
the
strategies
during
it's
there's
life
during
covid,
pre-covered
and
I'm
sure
there's
going
to
be
life
postcode
right,
and
so
I
think
the
strategies
that
we
use
now
may
not
make
sense
postcode,
but
there
is
certainly
need
to
be
more
effective
and
we
just
need
to
shift.
You
are
all
doing
that.
Marvelously,
and
I
know
that
that
in
our
gear
process
and
during
our
budget
process,
we
had
a
report
from
the
city
manager
stating
that
we
weren't
collecting
information
throughout
any
of
our
city
departments
based
on
race.
A
And
so
I'm
glad
you
brought
this
up
councilmember
jimenez,
because
that
was
going
to
be
one
of
my
that's
actually
one
of
my
questions
and
how,
in
terms
of
moving
with
the
care
process,
how
are
you
integrating
that
diversity
and
equity
manager
to
make
sure
that
hard-to-reach
populations
that
are
typically
pre-covered
hard
to
reach
and
now
in
the
middle
of
it,
even
more
difficult
and
and
not
only
that,
but
that
some
of
our
family
demographics
are
changing
that
the
folks
who
might
have
been
middle
class
are
maybe
right
now
really
struggling
and
hanging
on
by
thread,
and
so
they
may
not
have
qualified
for
the
lunch
programs.
A
But
now
they
do,
and
so
I
it
would
be
great
to
hear
just
your
perspective
as
you
both
integrate.
You
know
from
the
pr
s
department
and
the
the
library
department
how
you
are
all
using
that
criteria,
to
move
our
programs
forward
and
to
to
to
focus
on
these
hard-to-reach
communities.
M
Well
I'll
go
first,
but
I
know
that
pns
has
really
great
strategies
that
they've
always
used
to
reach
their
communities
and
so
they're
employing
those.
So
with
with
our
new
manager.
Carl
alvarez,
I'm
glad
that
you
were
able
to
meet
her
she's
actually
been
part.
M
She
started
in
february
and
then
in
march
we
had
covid
as
you
know,
and
so
she,
while
we've
done
some
work
internally
as
an
organization
she's,
been
embedded
in
the
digital
inclusion
team,
and
I
think
one
of
the
greatest
strategies
that
actually
I
think
you
had
suggested
it
because
we're
working
closely
to
identify
community
groups
that
have
trusted
relationships
with
the
community
members
and
households
and
neighborhoods
that
are
more
likely
to
be
less
connected
or
more
likely
to
do.
M
Like
you,
you've
said
harder
to
reach,
and
so
we're
working
with
a
number
of
community
groups
and
trying
to
spread
that
you
know
the
resources
we
have
as
far
as
possible
to
move
forward
with
that
part
of
the
digital
inclusion
plan
and
really
build
on
the
trust,
trusting
relationships
that
they
have
with
their
communities
as
well
as
part
programs
that
the
library
already
has
with
some
of
our
communities
through
our
our
family
learning
centers.
M
Our
adult
literacy
programs,
those
types
of
things-
and
I
believe
also
prness-
is
doing
similarly
with
some
of
their
programs
that,
where
they've
already
have
trusting
relationships,
I
don't.
N
Know
if
yes,
I
just
want
to
add
yeah
with
parks.
I
just
want
to
add
that
we
have
our
senior
nutrition
program,
which
serves
hundreds
of
older
adults
who
are
getting
by
check
by
check
who
come
to
our
community
centers
daily
for
food
and
and
they
rely
on
that.
So
that's
a
population
that
we
connect
with
on
a
daily
basis
and
could
easily
continue
to
engage
them
in
the
digital
inclusion
work.
N
We
serve,
as
you
know,
already
many
many
youth
through
our
community
centers
with
scholarships
because
they
have
challenges
being
able
to
participate
if,
if
we
didn't
cover
their
fees,
and
so
fortunately
we
have
many
connections
in
the
community
through
our
staff,
our
very
diverse
staff,
who
can
speak
the
language
of
the
children
and
the
families
that
they
serve
as
well
as
like
with
the
library.
We
have
many
partnerships
in
the
community.
N
We're
also
a
grantee,
as
I
mentioned
before,
with
the
california
emerging
technology
fund,
which
is
serving
thousands
of
individuals
in
the
community
through
the
20
plus
organizations
that
are
funded
to
do
exactly
what
you
had
mentioned.
Councilmember
rennis,
to
really
target
those
communities
that
are
not
connected
that
are
not.
You
know,
connected
to
the
to
the
number
of
resources
in
the
community
and
so
we're
there
in
in
partnership
with
with
all
of
those
organizations
to
be
able
to
do
that,
to
be
able
to
connect
and
really
strengthen
those
partnerships.
A
I
appreciate
that
and
I
think
together
that
that's
very
thorough,
it
would
be
wonderful
to
have
a
standard,
in
the
same
sense
that
we
have
quality
standards
for
many
of
our
programs,
that
we
have
a
certain
level
of
quality
standards
or
qual
or
approaches
or
strategies
during
covet
that
we
that
we
enact
and
really
make
sure
to
check
off
that
list,
because
normally
we
just
do
we
just
do
our
work
and
and
and
allow
for
that
to
roll
out
the
way
it
normally
does.
A
But
I
think
right
now
we
need
to
be
very
intentional
about
doing
and
strategizing
very
differently,
and
so
it
would
be
wonderful
to
see
more
of
a
standardized
approach
that
that
both
the
library
and
prns
would
consider
and
or
or
integrated.
You
know
with
what
you
mentioned
laura
and
what
you
mentioned
jill
and
together
you
cover.
You
know
you
cover
seniors,
you
cover
established
relationships
and
people
who
already
are
in
the
in
the
neighborhood
still
and
and
and
that
way
we
know
that
we're
we're
covering
the
whole
spectrum.
A
I
know
it's
impossible
for
us
to
reach
each
and
every
person,
but
you
know
our
intention
is
to
actually
do
it
now,
whether
it
works
or
not.
You
know,
it's
part
of
you
know
this.
This
trial
and
error.
I
never
lived
through
a
pandemic.
A
I
don't
know
if
you
all,
I'm
sure
you
have
it
and
none
of
you
are
old
enough
to
to
have
lifted
the
last
one,
and
so
this
is
all
new
for
all
of
us,
and-
and
you
know,
we
want
to
make
sure-
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
that
our
strategies
are
changing,
because
I
certainly
can
see
that
in
my
office
what
works
for
a
period
of
time,
all
of
a
sudden
isn't
working
anymore.
People
may
be
not
reading
our
newsletters
as
often
as
they
were.
A
You
know
at
the
beginning,
they
were
hanging
on
to
every
piece
of
information
that
was
coming
up,
because
people
were
earnest
for
that
type
of
information
and
and
and
now
we
have
to
change
things
a
little
bit.
Maybe
you
have
to
pick
up
the
phone
a
little
more
often
or
we
have
to
possibly
make
a
visit
at
the
park
and
bring
people
in
in
a
socially
distant
manner,
of
course.
So
so
I
know
that
we
are
evolving
with
the
times
and
with
the
needs
of
our
community.
A
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
those
strategies
reflect
that,
so
it
would
be
wonderful
to
see
as
we
get
into
the
second
or
not
the
second,
but
as
we
roll
out
and
begin
the
the
new
5k
coding
or
the
other
programs.
I
know
there
was
another
program
that
I
think
was
a
pilot
in
the
wonder,
workshop
pilot
and
just
to
build
those
into
those
into
those
programs.
A
As
of
now
I
I
can
appreciate
that
we
have
distributed
already
some
some
ipads
and
I
can't
remember,
I
think
it
was
you
jill
or
somebody
on
your
staff.
That
said,
you
know
we
we
we're
we're
following
up
with
the
folks
that
we
already
know
are
struggling.
So
obviously
you
know
this
is
already
identified
folks
and
which
is
great.
A
I
also
think
that
the
schools
are
distributing
devices
that
are
needed,
and
those
are
folks
that
we
are
not
seeing
right
because
they've
already
received
a
device
or
they've
already
received
a
hotspot,
and
so
those
are
folks
that
we
probably
won't
be
able
to
touch
because
they're,
not
in
our
database
or
they're,
not
receiving
our
our
our
newsletters
and
just
how
do
we
expand?
A
That
is,
is
my
question
at
the
moment
so
that
we
make
sure
that
all
of
our
kiddos
are
getting
a
piece
of
the
pie,
a
very,
very
small
pie
that
we
have
but
they're
getting
part
of
it.
So
I
appreciate
your
consideration
of
that
and
potential
integration
into
your
strategies
from
here
forward.
A
Along
the
same
lines,
I
was
wondering
what
the
coordination
between
skully,
the
santa
clara
county
office
of
education
and
the
city
of
san
jose
has
been
in
our
rollout
of
devices.
You
know
we
intended
to
have
the
same
amount
of
hot
spots
as
we
did
devices
and
not
entirely
because
we
knew
that
those
those
users
would
be
missing
both
items.
We
thought,
maybe
they
would
be
missing
both
items,
but
I'm
guessing.
The
rollout
is
slightly
different.
A
How
are
we
coordinating
with
that,
and
is
that
coordination
reflected
in
some
sort
of
mou
so
that
we
can
then
check
our
progress
against.
M
Yes,
thank
you
for
the
question
we
we
have.
It
seems
like
we
have
so
many
mous
with
through
the
county
office.
M
Now,
basically,
they
are
a
partner
in
pretty
much
every
agreement
with
each
district
that
has
been
created
to
distribute
the
hot
spots
and,
at
the
same
time,
as
you
know,
the
the
city
allocated
funding
through
the
digital
inclusion
fund,
emergency
donations
through
this
county
office
of
ed
to
specific
schools
that
were
done
or
designated,
and
then
there
was
other
funding
that
came
through
other
sources
and
then
the
county
allocated
about
7.1
million
dollars
for
devices
and
a
big
chunk
of
that
is
going
to
san
jose
schools,
so
that
so
so
far,
all
of
that
funding
that
we've
worked
with
them
and
then
the
funding
from
the
county,
this
county
office
of
ed,
has
been
coordinating
with
us
to
keep
us
surprised
of
the
devices
that
they're
purchasing
to
fill
that
need
so
that
we
could
pair
or
meet
the
need
for
both,
because
I
will
say
the
one
one
really
good
thing
about
the
hotspot
that
we
were
able
to
distribute
is
that
it
can
support
several
devices.
M
M
At
this
point
and
the
challenge
for
the
county
office
as
of
last
week,
when
I
last
spoke
with
the
superintendent,
was
that
the
there
has
been
a
back
order
on
ordering
new
devices,
and
so
they
were
going
to
give
us
an
update
on
how
much
they
were
able
to
get,
and
they
give
us
weekly
updates
on
the
the
total
needed
for
the
the
all
the
districts
that
serve
san
jose
and
our
hope
had
been
to
you
know,
get
all
of
our
hot
spots
distributed
and
then
refocus
on
devices,
and
so
we
would
be
we'll
be
able
to
give
you
a
clear
number
very
soon
at
an
upcoming
update
or
any
time.
A
What
wonderful
that
was
going
to
be
my
next
question
in
terms
of
distribution.
I
think
we've
asked
this
in
our
covet
update
about
two
weeks
ago.
Some
of
us
were
interested
in
learning
about.
You
know
what
what
are
the
school
districts
and
what
did
they
receive?
You
know,
and
hopefully
that
matches
up,
I'm
almost
certain
that
it
would
match
up
with.
I
think
that's
that's
a
little
like
a
pet
squeaky
or
something
that
I'm
hearing.
A
That
no
it's
it's
absolutely
adorable
makes
me
think
about
a
baby
puts
a
smile
on
my
face.
That
is
absolutely
cute
now
this
is
what
we're
dealing
with
when
we
work
at
home,
so
so
absolutely
enjoyable,
so
so
yeah
that
that
would
be
wonderful
to
learn
a
little
bit
more
in
terms
of
the
distribution.
A
I
know
you
have
a
second
order,
that's
coming
up
in
late
september
or
early
october,
and
hopefully
we'll
get
folks
what
they
need.
My
my
question
was
going
to
be
around.
This
is,
is
ellen
receiving
any
additional
hot
spots
at
this
point,
or
are
they
pretty
much
set.
M
Sorry,
I
was
muted,
I
will
check
really
quick
to
see
if,
but
they
did
get
a
very
large
order,
the
first
time
around
so
we'll
see
if
they're,
if
they
made
a
secondary
request.
The
good
news
about
the
the
second
order
is
that
we
are
able
to
meet
every
request.
That's
been
made
to
us.
A
Wonderful,
thank
you.
I
can
see
the
benefit
already
when
I
look
at
my
kiddos
kinder
class
and
everybody's
in
their
little
respective
corner
or
kitchen
or
somewhere
in
their
home,
or
actually
there's
a
number
of
kids
who
are
on
site
at
one
of
our
schools,
doing
distance
learning
or
trying
we're
all
trying
to
do
that.
So
I
appreciate
it
and
I
just
wanted
to
relay
that.
You
know
that
is
your
work
is
really
paying
off.
We
can
see
that
in
in
our
classrooms
already.
A
So
I
think
my
question.
My
next
question
was
about
the
connecting
households.
A
I
think
I
saw
in
the
report
that
in
may
2020
there
was
there
was
a
effort
to
help
enroll
families
into
affordable
internet
services,
and
there
was
about
3
000
households
that
were
provided
information,
but
there
was
only
44
households
that
actually
moved
forward
with
an
application
or
enrollment
for
affordable
internet
service.
Is
that
typically,
what
you
see
that
is
that
what
those
efforts
typically
render.
N
Yes,
so
that
was
under
parks
and
rec,
so
we
it
is,
as
we
mentioned,
we
did
this
mass
outreach
and-
and
we
had
about
45
families
that
took
us
up
on
the
offer
to
assist
them
through
the
application
process.
N
The
application
process
is
a
little
bit
cumbersome
because
the
in
the
families,
the
households
have
to
have
documentation
and
you
have
to
scan
it.
You
have
to
upload
it
and
so
for
some
of
the
families.
That
was
a
challenge
when,
when
they
came
to
the
enrollment
date,
if
they
had
the
forms
we
were
able
to
assist
them,
we
were
able
to
either
take
pictures
of
it
or
scan
it
on
the
computer
in
a
system,
but
there's
also
different
criterias
for
the
affordable
internet
service,
for
example.
N
If
there's
multiple
households
or
multiple
family
units
within
a
home,
let's
just
say
you
have
four
families
living
together
and
one
of
them
has
affordable
internet
service.
The
other
residents
can't
obtain
it
or
if
they
or
if
the
family
maybe
had
the
affordable
internet
service
with
the
company,
and
they
have
a
balance
that
they
never
paid.
N
Then
they
can't
enroll
and
so
there's
all
these
little
criterias
that
that
also,
unfortunately
serve
as
a
roadblock
and
barriers
for
families
accessing
and
then
again
you
know
the
reality
is
that
ten
dollars
may
not
seem
a
lot
too
many
of
us,
but
when
you
have
families
who,
as
we
know,
have
have
especially
during
this
time,
you
know-
are
unemployed
or
not
working
as
many
hours
as
as
they
used
to
having
ten
dollars.
You
know
you
have
to
kind
of
pick
and
choose
what
what
necessities
you
want
to
pay
for.
N
So,
unfortunately,
yes,
there's
just
a
number
of
challenges
and
barriers,
and
so
these
hot
spots
are
are
a
godsend
to
many
families
that
I
know
that
wouldn't
have
access
to
the
internet
services.
A
Sure
I
appreciate
that
I
think
now
that
we're
having
more
of
our
families
familiar
with
a
hot
spot.
I'll
be
honest,
I
don't
know
how
the
hot
spot
works.
I
you
know
I
deserve
my
internet
and
I
my
husband
puts
his
hot
spot
on
and
his
phone
and
I
just
don't
even
mess
with
that
it.
A
You
know
I'm
not
that
tech
girl,
but
I
know
our
families
are
forced
now
to
really
be
more
used
to
some
of
the
technology,
and
so
I
don't
know
if
maybe
you
have
another
roll
out
for
this
or
you
know
just
to
spread
the
word
about-
maybe
some
of
the
families
that
are
already
using
some
of
our
hot
spots
and
and
our
devices
and
can
actually
talk
to
their
neighbors
and
friends
and
possibly
help
out
and
just
you
know,
alleviate
some
of
the
confusion
that
comes
along
with
the
hot
spots.
A
If
somebody
can
explain
it
to
me,
you
know
they
can
explain
it
to
our
families
and
maybe
we
would
be
more
prone
to
use
it
right,
and
so
I
just
think
that
that
we
are
in
a
different
place.
A
At
this
point,
we
typically
as
parents
we're
forced
to
learn
new
things
through
our
children
and
and
we're
forced
in
different
circles
because
of
our
children
and
their
interest,
and
so
I
think
you
know
we
we
should
take
advantage
of
of
maybe
some
of
the
folks
who
are
already
connected,
who
can
help
with
some
and
spreading
some
of
that
information,
because
not
everybody
has
a
child
and
who's
who's
on
learning,
distance
learning
and
now
getting
used
to
all
of
this.
A
And
so
I
would
venture
to
say
that
maybe
a
second
rollout
would
be
better
at
this
point.
Now
that
everything's
kind
of
settled
from
the
start
of
school-
and
we
all
are
getting
used
to
this-
this
new
way
of
teaching
and
being
at
home.
M
Yeah
and
I'll
just
one
of
the
things
that
we
want
that
we've
been
talking
about
is
that
you
know
we
get
the
hot
spots
out,
we're
still
trying
to
get
more
devices,
but
that
we
have
the
remainder
of
this
fiscal
year
to
work
through
the
schools
and
our
partners
and
with
the
families
to
to
sort
of
increase.
That
number
of
folks
who
are
who
have
found
an
ongoing
internet
solution,
whether
it
be
through
our
access,
these
sites
projects.
M
But
you
know
to
to
work
with
our
telco
agreements
to
see
what
happens
after
this
year,
which,
as
councilmember
as
far
as
said,
was
funded
through,
cares
funding.
So
we
really
need
to
work
with
our
families
like.
This
is
a
good
way
to
help
this
year.
During
this
really
urgent
terrible.
You
know
distance
learning,
rollout,
that's
been
so
challenging
for
families,
but
we
have
a
longer-term
solution
to
find
and.
A
Thank
you.
Yes,
I
mean
you
know
what
and
I
for
some
reason
I
overlooked
that
list.
I
you,
your
staff
did
send
us
a
list,
our
team,
a
list
of
of
school
districts
with
the
devices
that
have
been
allocated
so
far,
and
I
think
at
this
point
we
only,
I
think,
there's
only
been
like
about
3
000
that
have
been
distributed,
and
I
know
that
there
was
a
funding
for
11
000.
A
Is
that
because
we're
finding
the
difference
in
pricing
different
than
we
expected
or.
M
Oh,
actually,
that's
a
good
clarification
that
we
did
distribute
8
300
and
we
have
the
remainder
of
11
000
to
2700
to
do
public,
checkout
and
partner
checkout.
The
the
3000
and
the
list
that
you
have
was
the
schools
within
your
district.
So
we
can
provide
the
full,
but
it
was.
It
was
more
answering
that
direct
question.
A
Yeah
there
was
a
mount
pleasant,
evergreen
east
side,
elm
rock.
For
some
reason.
I
have
morgan
hill.
We
don't
stretch
down
that
that
milk
but
yeah
they
feel
like
our
neighbors
at
times.
A
Okay,
you
know-
and
I
I
want
to
get
back
to
just
the
question
that
trustee
chavez
had
in
her
call
and
at
a
respect
of
her
time
and
her
interest.
I
know
that
she
was
asking
about
access
eastside
and
now
that
you
bring
it
up
jill.
I
hope
that
maybe
you
can
just
provide
a
quick
response
to
some
of
the
inquiry
that
she
was
making.
M
Yes
and
thank
you
for
asking
that
so
the
as
we
stated
last
week,
the
rfp
for
the
consultants
that
would
do
the
build
out
closed
last
wednesday.
I
believe,
and
so
the
public
works
team
is
reviewing
the
rfp
responses
and
that's
why
we've
scheduled
the
next
update
and
discussion
with
full
council
on
the
22nd,
because
that
will
give
them
time
to
be
able
to
have
a
more
robust
conversation
and,
at
that
time,
we're
hoping
that
the
update
is
mostly
about
that
project
and
with
an
update
also
on
the
the
city
building.
Wi-Fi.
A
A
I
appreciate
that
I
think
those
are
my
questions.
A
A
I
think
overall,
I'm
absolutely
impressed
with
the
different
the
variety
of
programming
that
are
not
just
intended
for
our
students,
but
intended
for
our
seniors
or
adults
like
the
laptop
checkout
pilot
program
that
seem
to
be
more
focused
for
for
adult
use,
because
our
children
aren't
the
only
ones
that
need
to
get
on
the
internet
right.
Everybody
does
nowadays
and
if
you
didn't,
have
access
to
transportation
and
relied
on
public
transportation.
A
This
kind
of
allowance
would
provide
you,
you
know
avoiding
getting
on
public
transportation
once
again
and
then
hauling
the
straw.
A
stroller
and
the
kids
and
all
of
that
to
a
clinic,
and
so
now
you
can
do
some
telehealth
appointments,
and
so
that
or
job
interviews
or
whatever
it
is
that
that
we
are
now
relying
on
the
internet
for
so
much
so
I
appreciate
the
the
different
program
and
variety
as
well
as
the
infrastructure
development.
I
know
that,
like
I
said,
I
am
not
sure
all
of
what
you
did.
A
I
heard
what
you
said
about
some
of
the
improvements,
and
so
all
I
know
is
that
our
internet
will
be
faster
for
our
community,
especially
at
our
community
centers.
A
I
know
that
it
was
still
a
need
that
is
out
there
and
we've
seen
it
with
the
numbers
of
people
who
continue
to
rely
on
on
the
library
wi-fi,
and
so
I
completely
appreciate
that-
and
I
didn't
want
to
overlook
that
hack,
because
I
know
that
you're
on
online
here
with
us
and
you're,
possibly
somebody
that
stays
behind
the
scenes
but
allows
for
our
our
our
parents
and
our
community
to
stay
connected.
A
So
I
appreciate
that
I
just
wanted
to
take
a
moment
to
say
thank
you
for
that
and
for
your
efforts
to
keep
us
all
connected
and
in
in
the
voodoo
you
do
around
technology
all
right.
So
that
is
it
for
my
comments
and
questions.
I
appreciate
it.
I
hope
that
we
can
have
a.
C
B
A
Wonderful,
so
that
is
almost
concluding
our
our
meeting
here
left
is
open
forum,
and
I
see
that
we
have
one
person
left
for
public
comment.
Thank
you
so
much
to
everybody,
who's
provided
some
presentations
to
us,
and
so
I'm
gonna
read
off
the
first
three
numbers,
because
I
did
that
last
time,
and
this
is
the
same
number.
So
if
you
have
the
number
373,
if
you
could
please
mute
yourself
and
go
ahead
and
provide
us
with
your
public
comment.
A
Hi,
this
is
for
number
three.
If
your
phone
number
starts
with
three
seven
three
go
ahead
and
begin.
Your
public
comment.
B
If
and
on
the
phone
press
star,
six
to
unmute.
B
K
Hi,
thank
you.
I
wanted
to
speak
a
bit
more
about
dolores
huertas
and
cesar
chavez
work
in
san
jose.
I
wanted
to
use
the
words
you
know
not
just
activists,
but
you
know:
community
organizer
and
neighborhood
organizer,
and
not
just
activists
but
ideas
about
advocacy
as
well.
I
feel
you
know
it.
They've
taught
me
a
lot
and
they've
done
it
with
a
lot
of
comfort
and
respect,
and
it's
been
nice
for
me.
K
How
that
you
know
I
I
wanted
to
then
also
talk
about
the
police,
sro
issue
and
the
police
need
for
wanting
to
be
a
part
of
community
the
police
department
and
that
again,
just
to
mention
that
the
pal
idea
may
be
a
way
to
go
to
relieve
the
stress
of
the
police
wanting
to
be
community
minded
and
oriented
as
part
of
the
sro
program.
K
With
what
do
I
got
here,
54
seconds,
you
know
the
there's
going
to
be
a
lot
of
police
items
coming
up
on
september
15th.
Thank
you.
I'm
learning
that
you
know
we're
learning
how
to
prepare
ourselves
for
the
long
haul,
and
it's
time
we
talk
about
issues
of
equity
and
real.
You
know
decisions
to
pull
back
the
police,
you
know
as
much
as
we
can
and
talk
about
community
policing
ideas
more
and
what
does
community's
involvement
mean?
K
We
need
to
be
more
involved
as
a
community
and,
to
conclude,
you
know,
I'm
having
a
difficult
time
these
days,
trying
to
mention
how
covid
is
an
international
issue
and
it
has
international
beginnings.
How
do
we
talk
about
that
at
the
local
level
in
terms
that
can
make
it
safe
and
we
can
have
our
own
sense
of
empowerment
and
take
back
what
we
deserve?
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you,
mr
beekman.
I'm
going
back
to
the
caller
with
the
first
three
can.
O
Yeah
yeah,
it's
a
lot,
usually
you
guys
use
the
last
three
numbers,
but
whatever
first
of
all,
zoom
doesn't
work.
This
calling
thing
is
ridiculous.
O
I
just
had
to
hear
out
an
hour's
worth
of
how
people
don't
have
access
to
the
internet.
I
have
access
to
internet,
but
you
guys
are
making
it
really
difficult.
I
know
how
to
do
all
this
you're,
making
it
difficult
to
people
for
people
to
attend
these
meetings,
and
I
mean
and
if
they
can't
afford
ten
dollars
to
have
internet,
how
are
they
gonna
be
able
to
get
through
like
I
do
once
again,
I
I
like
to
also
know
who
they
don't
have
ten
dollars
to
get
the
internet.
O
Do
they
have
more
than
ten
dollars
worth
of
tattoos
in
their
family?
I
bet
they
do
you
know
you
don't
have
ten
dollars,
you
can't
live
in
the
silicon
valley.
I
mean
I'm
sorry,
but
maybe
you
have
to
move
someplace
else,
but
you
know
our
city
likes
to
spend
money
on.
You
know
police
dogs
that
cost
tens
of
thousands
of
dollars,
bmw
motorcycles.
I
guess
they
can
go
faster
to
revenue,
people
who
are
on
their
way
to
work.
O
Who,
maybe
are
you
know
slightly
speeding
a
little
bit,
you
know
and
and
it's
crazy
how
much
money
is
spent
on
the
in
this
entire
city.
As
far
as
I'm
concerned,
all
these
programs,
the
police
department,
the
fire
department,
the
whole
thing
is
glorified
welfare,
whether
the
people
are
being
paid
or
not
getting
things
for
free.
It's
really
disgusting,
and
this
is
for
dev
davis.
The
road
at
the
hicks
avenue
there
and
calicita
is
a
mess.
It's
a
big
mounds
of
tar
and
a
steel
plate.
It's
unsafe
it's
disgusting
and
you
need
to
fix
it.
O
It's
dangerous
and
if
anything,
the
people
in
the
new
bmw
motorcycle
should
cite
the
people
who
put
the
pile
of
car.
That's
a
complete
road
hazard.
I
really
think
that
this
city
needs
to
prioritize
and
go
by
the
way
pal
get
rid
of
it.
It's
highly
paid
police
officers,
tweeting,
whistles
and
kicking
soccer
balls.
A
All
right,
thank
you,
and
that
is
the
conclusion
of
our
meeting
meeting
adjourned.
Thank
you.
