Good
afternoon,
chair
and
members
of
the
committee
I'm
audio
Tom
division
manager
in
parks,
recreation
and
Neighborhood
Services
joined
today
by
Michelle
McGurk
assistant
to
the
city
manager
in
the
city,
manager's
office
of
administration
policy
and
intergovernmental
relations.
We're
here
today
to
provide
a
brief
verbal
update
regarding
our
work
on
potential
revenue,
measures
to
fund
parks,
recreation
and
neighborhood
services,
operations
and
maintenance.
We
last
spoke
to
the
committee
in
May
of
twenty
nineteen
and
provided
background
on
the
need
for
and
counsel
prioritization
of,
exploring
alternative
funding
for
parks
and
recreation.
C
Since
then,
staff
has
been
working
diligently
to
educate
the
public,
about
parks
and
recreation,
to
assess
different
models
for
possible
revenue
measures
and
to
repair
renewed
public
opinion
polling.
Since
late
spring
staff
has
engaged
in
a
public
awareness
campaign
focused
on
a
different
area
of
PRN
s
services
each
month,
such
as
senior
and
active
adult
preschool
and
after-school
volunteer
and
youth
intervention
programs.
C
Staff
has
also
partnered
with
the
San
Jose
Parks
Foundation,
to
run
the
first
Explorer
parks.
Events
in
San
Jose,
where
tokens
were
hidden
in
parks
across
the
city
and
hints,
were
dropped
on
social
media
and
on
the
radio
in
multiple
languages,
for
the
community
members
to
literally
explore
parks,
trails
and
community
centers
for
prizes
and
for
pun,
because
we
are
the
department
building
community
through
fun.
C
The
goal
of
the
public
awareness
campaign
and
explore
your
parks.
Events
is
to
communicate
in
English,
Spanish
and
Vietnamese
the
breath
of
Piran
s,
facilities,
programs
and
services,
and
to
get
more
residents
active
and
engaged
in
our
Parks
and
Recreation
system.
So
we
can
truly
activate
San
Jose
I'll,
now
hand
it
off
to
Michelle
who
will
provide
an
update
on
revenue
measures,
models
and
polling
good.
D
It
has
taken
quite
some
time
to
vet
and
test
the
data
that
would
go
into
creating
these
models,
particularly
making
sure
that
we
had
accurate
data
about
the
improved
areas
of
the
and
the
buildings
that
are
on
those
parcels,
embedding
it
with
the
assessor's
office
and
so
forth.
In
the
poll,
we
will
also
ask
voters
about
their
engagement
with
parks,
community
centers,
Senior,
Services
and
various
active
8sj
activities
like
viva
calle.
D
Additional
questions
will
determine
how
important
various
issues
and
services
are
to
voters.
These
will
include
things
like
clean
park,
restrooms
or
removal
of
illegal
dumping
to
beautify
the
city
or
protecting
nature
and
wildlife
areas,
and
then
will
also
ask
about
a
few
specific
places
like,
as
you
had
recommended
at
the
last
committee
meeting
like
Happy
Hollow
and
the
rotary
play
garden
and
and
get
a
sense
of
people's
involvement
with
those.
D
You
know
different
specific.
You
know
how
they
resonate
with
the
voters.
We
are
looking
forward
to
reporting
back
to
Council
when
we
have
the
results
of
the
survey
and,
at
this
point,
I
think
Abby
and
I
are
available
for
feedback
and
questions
about
the
approach.
So,
but
we
will,
we
do
anticipate
being
in
the
field
with
the
survey
in
the
next
two
to
four
weeks.
A
E
D
Yes,
so
we,
this
is
a.
We
did,
some
preliminary
survey
work
and,
as
we
had
presented
to
you
in
May,
in
2017
and
2018
time
frames,
and
what
we
found
at
that
time
was
the
the
model
that
was
tested
and
the
way
the
question
was
asked.
We
had
strong
support
for
the
parks
but
I
a
park.
Specific
measure
requires
two-thirds
and
the
various
times
we've
polled
we
came,
we
came,
you
know
we
had
high
support.
D
D
D
Well,
we
pull
the
actual
ballot
question
that
would
be
on
the
ballot
so
that
which
which
is
well.
We
we
haven't
finalized
the
draft
poll
yet,
but
it
it
varies
and
we
are
waiting
to
see.
There's
some
there's
some
legislation,
that's
sitting
on
the
governor's
desk
that
might
change
the
way
ballot
questions
are
required
to
be
written.
So
once
we
know
next
week,
if
that
legislation
is
approved
or
not,
then
we
would
finalize
with
the
pollster
but
we're
looking
at
keeping.
D
B
D
E
Can
you
be
a
little
bit
more
specific
than
that
I'd
like
to
know
because
so
you're
talking
about
you,
you
mentioned
two
different
strategies.
Usually
a
parcel
tax
is
just
a
that
fee
on
a
parcel
whatever
it
is
you're
talking
about
taxing
based
on
the
square
footage
of
the
dwelling
or
the
square
footage
of
the
lot
size.
So
I'd
like
to
get
an
idea
of
what
that
means.
What's
that,
what's
that
going
to
look
on
homeowners
tax
bill
so.
D
Some
of
the
modeling
that
we've
done-
and
we
can
continue
to
play
with
this,
which
would
start
at
one
cent
per
square
foot
of
parcel
area
for
a
parcel
for
a
residential
property,
and
then
it
would
be
varied
for
commercial
properties
and
increasing
and
then
on
the
improved
area.
We've
looked
at
a
model
that
would
start
at
three
cents
per
area.
So,
if
you
were
talking
about,
you
know,
I
have
a
1500
square
foot
home
I
would
be
you
know.
At
that
rate,
you
know,
I'd
be
paying
approximately
forty-five
dollars
a
year.
E
D
We
so
we
were
directed
to
look
at
progressive
rates
when
we
at
various
times
when
we've
polled
both
on
the
parks
and
on
housing
measures
we
were,
and
then
we
were
back
in
2016
2017,
2018
PRN
s
did
some
financial
feasibility
studies
and
had
a
consultant
that
looked
at
all
the
different
measures
that
had
been
done
and
there
was
a
very
successful
measure
in
Los,
Angeles
County.
That.
D
C
It's
gonna
add
la
County's
model
was
a
rate
tied
to
the
building
or
improved
area.
Every
parcel
they
given
their
scale
set
that
to
one
and
a
half
cents
per
square
foot
and
then
across
the
county
was
gonna,
raise
on
the
order
of
I,
think
ninety
five
million
dollars
per
year
and
what's
highly
unique
about
that
one,
and
why
it's
it's
the
standard
in
parks.
Recreation
is
it's
in
perpetuity,
so
it
provides
an
ongoing
source
of
funding
across
the
county.
D
We
also
looked
at
the
model
that
we
have
for
the
library
parcel
tax,
and
so
the
library
parcel
tax
is
varied,
based
on
the
type
of
property.
So
it
is,
you
know,
homeowners
pay
a
flat
rate
for
a
single-family
home,
but
the
library
parcel
tax
varies
based
on
the
type
of
property,
and
so
we've
done,
we've
done
quite
a
bit
of
different
modeling
and
really
with
this
polling
I
think
we
would.
D
We're
still
studying
that
because
we
we
need
to
were
diving
deeper
into
the
into
the
sizes
of
the
property,
but
we're
thinking
it
could
be
varied
or
it
could
be
static
at
you
know.
But
again
it
would
be.
You
know,
potentially
to
three
cents
on
a
parcel,
depending
on
the
parcel
size
we
did
get
a.
We
did
get
a
strong
sense
from
the
council
with
the
housing
measure
when
the
team
was
with
Callen
at
Council.
E
Interesting
since
the
commercial
I
mean
I'm,
not
speaking
for
or
against
that,
but
I'm
thinking
of
who
uses
the
parks
and
it's
really
not
the
commercial
properties
who
are
using
the
parks,
it's
the
residential
occupants
who
are
using
our
parks.
It's
not
necessarily
our
businesses
that
are
using
the
park.
So
that's
an
interesting
I
wasn't
on
council,
then.
So
it's
an
interesting
discussion.
Well.
E
D
The
staff
Direction
around
so
in
in
June
when
we
came
to
council
to
talk
about
housing
measures.
The
staff
Direction
at
that
time
was
to
explore
a
commercial
only
or
non-residential
only
parcel
tax
for
related
to
housing
right
and
so.
But
we
heard
from
several
council
members
in
that
discussion
that
that,
as
we
explored
tax
measures,
we
should
look
at
varied
rates
for
commercial
and
residential,
so
that
was
that
was
some
of
the
inspiration
that
staff
had
on
that.
And
then
we
do
have
parts
of
town
where
you
know
daytime
use.
E
You
know
all
these
things
are
going
to
be
questions
that
come
up
to
us
in
the
community
as
if
we,
if
we
launched
that
and
the
other
thing
to
take
into
consideration-
is
there
going
to
be
tax
fatigue
based
on
other
ballot
measures
that
may
come
before
us
in
November
2020
that
are
like
a
transportation
tax
and
they
are
a
very
area,
wide
transportation
tax.
So.
D
D
E
A
D
Rather
than
trying
to
cram
all
the
information
into
the
75
words
and
I
saw
a
few
graduated
taxes
from
other
jurisdictions
where
they
literally
used
up.
You
know
50
words
saying
for
properties
of
this
price.
The
rate
will
be
this
for
properties
of
this
price.
It
will
be,
and
so
it
didn't
allow
a
lot
of
space
to
talk
about
what
would
be
the
measure.
So
that
is
on
the
governor's
desk
currently,
and
we
will
see
what
happens
with
that
and
then
shape
our
questions
appropriately.
Great.
A
A
D
B
D
A
Wonderful,
you
know
I
think
this
is
a
good
balance
of
attacks,
since
we
have
seen
park
fees
getting
waived
in
order
to
build
high
rises,
and
so
I
think
this
is
this
kind
of
helps
create
some
balance
in
perpetuity
for
our
parks,
which
is
something
that
people
see
and
deal
with
on
a
daily
basis
and
want
to
see
continued
maintenance
and
so
I
think
it's
great.
Hopefully,
our
voters
think
the
same
thing.
Good
luck!
All.
E
C
C
F
C
F
B
D
D
A
F
F
A
I
We're
gonna
work
on
pulling
this
up
while
I
kick
it
off
and
give
the
introduction.
So
thank
you,
chairman
and
council
members.
My
name
is
Kristen
Clemons
I'm,
a
division
manager
at
the
housing
department
yeah
today
we've
got
the
following
two
items
and
to
come,
we've
come
to
brief
you
on
the
process
of
creating
two
plans
that
we
think
are
very
important
and
talk
to
you
about
the
process
that
is
underway.
The
first
item
is
going
to
talk
about
the
city's
first
assessment
of
fair
housing
and
the
second
one.
I
The
second
item
will
talk
about
the
creation
of
our
next
five-year
consolidated
plan
that
governs
the
use
of
our
federal
funds
from
the
Department
of
Housing
and
Urban
Development.
So
the
presentations
we're
going
to
tell
you
about
the
process,
we're
going
to
be
going
through
to
develop
the
plans
and
the
outreach
that
you'll
be
hearing
about
or
seeing
and
hopefully
participating
in,
and
we
wanted
to
answer
any
questions
that
you
might
have
about
the
process
or
about
what
these
plans
are,
and
we
would
love
to
get
your
guidance
and
feedback.
I
If
you
have
any
suggestions
about
our
outreach
to
the
community,
so
this
is
not
your
only
chance
to
talk
about
this,
we'll
be
coming
back
in
the
spring,
with
some
preliminary
results
on
what
we've
learned
and
then
we'll
be
asking
for
your
feedback
on
draft
concepts
and
draft
plans
in
the
spring.
So
with
that,
yes,
you
do
have
it
in
front
of
you.
First
we're
gonna
start
with
the
assessment
of
fair
housing
plan
item
2
on
the
agenda,
just
to
kick
it
off
for
a
moment.
You
know.
I
Fair
housing
law
is
both
at
the
federal
level
and
the
state
level,
and
it
tells
us
that
we
need
to
overcome
historic
patterns
of
segregation,
to
promote
fair
housing
choice
and
to
foster
inclusive
communities
that
are
free
from
discrimination.
So
it's
our
job
to
figure
out
what
those
challenges
are
and
figure
out
strategies
to
address
them.
So
the
assessment
of
fair
housing
is
the
process
and
the
plan
that
result
to
analyze
and
create
strategies
to
effectuate
to
put
in
play
how
we're
going
to
approach
fair
housing
in
our
community.
G
G
So
so
why
is
an
assessment
of
fair
housing,
important
the
afh
and
I'll
use
a
fh
for
short,
because
we're
gonna
be
saying
it
a
lot,
but
the
fh
influences
how
we
spend
our
federal
dollars
on
community
services,
capital
projects
and
infrastructure
over
the
next
five
years.
It
explores
how
access
to
housing
impacts.
B
G
It
will
identify
issues
relating
to
housing
choice
and
how
it
impacts
access
to
opportunities.
Findings
that
the
plan
may
influence
where
affordable
housing
is
located
or
sited
and
ensure
that
affordable
housing
can
be
built
in
all
parts
of
the
city
to
prevent
the
over
concentration
of
poverty,
but
also
to
maximize
access
to
opportunities.
G
So
what
is
fair
housing?
Let's
step
back
a
minute
and
look
back
into
history
a
little
bit.
The
idea
of
fair
housing
was
built
on
several
landmark
laws,
starting
in
1959
with
the
state
Unruh
Civil
Rights
Act
in
California,
followed
by
the
1968
Fair
Housing
Act.
Together
these
laws
identify
protected
classes
of
people
and
make
it
illegal
to
discriminate
against
these
groups
with
regard
to
renting
or
buying
homes.
Such
protected
classes
include
age,
sexual
orientation,
gender,
race,
religion
and
many
more.
G
In
2015,
the
federal
government
introduced
the
assessment
of
fair
housing
as
a
tool
to
carry
out
the
notion
of
affirmatively
furthering
fair
housing,
which
came
from
the
1968
Fair
Housing
Act.
This
assessment
is
now
optional,
at
least
in
though,
in
the
way
that
we're
proposing
to
do
it,
but
thanks
to
the
passage
of
California
law,
a
B,
686
cities
and
counties
in
California
are
now
incentivized
to
use
the
afh
method,
and
while
we
have
made
progress
since
1968,
direct
and
indirect,
intentional
and
unintentional
discrimination
continues
today,
more
than
50
years
later,.
G
So
it's
important
to
recognize
that
some
of
today's
housing
problems
are
connected
to
discriminatory
policies
at
the
past.
As
you
can
see
a
few
examples
here
in
the
early
1900's,
there
were
racially
restricted
deeds
and
covenants
that
prevented
certain
groups
from
owning
homes
or
for
renting
in
certain
areas
of
San
Jose.
There
was
a
Japanese
internment
and,
of
course,
some
of
you
have
heard
about
redlining,
which
was
a
discriminatory
practice
where
loans
and
mortgages
were
withheld
from
specific
geographic
areas
of
the
city,
especially
inner-city
areas
with
non-white
populations.
G
This
is
a
map
from
the
1930s
of
San
Jose
back
when
San
Jose
was
much
smaller
and
like
many
other
cities
across
this
across
the
country.
This
redlining
map,
which
was
created
by
the
home
owners,
Loan
Corporation,
which
was
a
federal
agency,
indicated
hazardous
areas,
indicated
by
the
red
and
and
definitely
declining
areas
indicated
by
the
yellow.
These
ratings
were
based
on
in
part
on
the
racial
composition
of
the
neighborhood
and
made
it
very
difficult
for
residents
in
these
neighborhoods
to
get
loans
to
buy
or
repair
their
homes,
as
I
mentioned,
neighborhoods.
G
G
G
Redlining
as
a
practice
did
not
end
until
the
passage
of
accountability
measures
through
legislation
in
1970s.
However,
it
is
important
to
note
that
the
practice
of
housing
discrimination
still
occurs
today.
In
2016,
the
majority
of
respondents
to
the
Santa
Clara
County
Regional
Fair
Housing
Survey
stated
they
had
experienced
discrimination
in
housing
and
indicated
that
that
race
was
a
primary
factor
for
that
discrimination.
G
There's
alignment
between
historically
redlined
neighborhoods
and
where
we
are
seeing
displacement
today
long
time,
residents
of
color
in
these
neighborhoods,
many
of
whom
benefited
from
the
generational
wealth
created
from
property
ownership,
are
now
being
pushed
out
right
when
the
area's
economic
outlook
improves
and
are
unable
to
stay,
to
reap
these
benefits
so
fast
forwarding
to
today.
Today,
we
still
see
examples
of
disproportionate
outcomes
for
certain
groups
in
San
Jose,
including
looking
at
the
homelessness
population.
G
G
So
with
that
in
mind,
we're
working
on
this
on
this
plan
with
seven
cities-
San
Jose,
Cupertino,
Gilroy,
Mountain,
View,
Palo,
Alto,
Santa,
Clara
Sunnyvale,
including
some
of
the
smaller
cities
that
are
considered
part
of
the
urban
County.
So
that's
Campbell,
Los
Altos,
let's
out
less
out
those
hills,
let's
garros
Montes
Monte
Sereno,
Morgan
Hill,
sir
Saratoga,
and
so
we
are
working
with
the
county
as
well
as
the
Housing
Authority.
So
it's
a
pretty
broad
coalition
and
we're
working
together
with
the
same
consultants.
G
So
we
we
do
plan
to
do
very
robust
outreach
as
part
of
this
afh
process.
Both
was
that
with
a
consultant
who
will
lead
some
of
the
events
and
a
meetings
as
well
as
some
of
and
some
of
these
will
be
led
by
staff.
There'll,
be
a
mix
of
large
and
small
opportunities
to
engage
we're
working
with
the
lawyers
Committee
for
civil
rights,
which
is
a
group.
That's
based
in
Washington
DC
they're
experts
on
fair
housing,
they're
HUD,
technical
assistance
providers.
D
G
Great
to
have
on
board,
we
will
be
doing
one
on
one
stakeholder
meetings.
Those
are
already
happening
as
a
way
to
start
to
start
to
broaden
our
network.
We
had
a
kickoff
meeting
last
week.
We
will
also
be
forming
an
advisory
committee
which
will
meet
once
a
month
for
the
next
five
to
six
months
and
we'll
have
two
additional
large
format.
Meetings
we'll
have
one
probably
we're
hammering
out
dates,
but
we
have
one
in
November
in
another
in
January
and
another
in
February.
G
B
G
And
the
second
one
would
be
a
great
opportunity
to
bring
this
in,
and
this
is
following
a
motion
from
councilmember
Perales
at
the
august
26
ced
committee,
which
was
a
motion
that
was
passed
to
incorporate
the
AFF
afh
discussion
into
the
council
study
sessions
on
equity,
and,
if
I
may,
we
didn't
I
did
mention
this
earlier.
But
at
that
same
meeting
there
were
a
few
other
comments
from
other
council
members.
In
addition
to
councilmember
Perez
and
one
of
the
notes.
G
What
from
one
of
the
council
member
was
that
here
in
San
Jose,
we
do
have
enclaves
in
some
cases,
that's
that's
by
choice
and
that
and
we
shouldn't
only
look
at
segregation
as
a
bad
thing.
But
we
should
look
at
it
as
how
can
investments
be
brought
to
enclaves
that
already
exist
and
how
can
access
to
opportunity
to
be
brought
to
those
communities,
as
well
as
looking
at
segregation
that
may
have
resulted
from
government
policies
and
other
economic
factors?
G
We'd
also
got
a
comment
that
code
enforcement
should
be
considered
as
part
of
this
analysis
and
that
housing
takes
a
long
time
and
that
perhaps
looking
at
ways
to
buy
existing
buildings
and
making
them
affordable
might
be
also
part
of
a
strategy
to
increase
affordability
more
quickly,
I'll
go
ahead
and
end.
My
comments
there
but
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
G
Yes
and
I
also
want
to
mention
that
I
forgot
one
slide,
which
was
some
questions
that
we
have
for
you.
But
yes,
I
can
go
back
to
this
slide
about
the
cities
that
are
so
the
Seven
Cities,
it's
really
seven
cities
and
then
the
counties
representing
the
urban
county,
which
are
the
smaller
cities.
So
did
you
want
to
know
the
larger
cities
or
the
smaller.
F
B
G
Part
of
the
urban
county
grouping
being
represented
by
the
county
by
the
office
of
supportive
housing,
the
cities
of
Campbell,
Los
Altos,
less
out
those
hills,
los
gatos
want
to
see
Reno,
Morgan,
Hill
Saratoga
and
some
of
the
in
the
unincorporated
areas
of
the
county.
There
will
be
a
regional
plan.
San
Jose
has
asked
to
have
its
own
separate,
standalone,
afh
plan,
which
will
include
the
regional
analysis
as
well
as
more
detailed
San,
Jose
neighborhood,
specific
analysis.
G
And
we
did
want
to
ask
you
today
for
your
feedback
on
our
work
plan,
specifically
on
outreach
and,
if
there's
any
thoughts
that
you
have
on
how
to
make
the
most
of
the
outreach,
how
to
reach
people,
how
to
use
your
offices
and
your
your
networks
and
resources
to
to
really
reach
people
who
are
hard
to
reach
and
make
sure
everyone
is
aware.
This
is
happening
because
it's
a
really
important
opportunity
and
then
too,
because
this
plan
is
really
based
on
on
community
input.
B
J
K
Esparza
great,
thank
you
so
I
have
some
questions
around
the
community
engagement
component,
and
so
where
that's
coming
from
is
it's.
My
questions
are
coming
from
a
concern
that
a
lot
of
times
we
put
the
burden
on
marginalized
communities
and
to
make
their
case
and
attend
meetings
in
a
way
that's
convenient
for
us,
and
so
that's
I
think
that
many
folks
can't
attend
meetings
at
City
Hall
or
even
when
we
partner
with
nonprofits
I,
think
we
miss
an
element.
K
So
that
was
a
pretty
dire
situation
and
even
then
they
were
like
I'm,
not
gonna,
call
nine
one
I'm
gonna
call
the
security
company
or
my
council
office,
and
that's
it.
So.
The
other
thing
is
how
how
are
these
groups
going
to
be
multilingual?
How
are
we
going
to
ensure
really
diverse
representative
participation
in
this
process?.
I
First
comment:
thank
you
for
your
comments
and
your
ideas.
Another
thought
that
we've
got
is
when
we
do
go
to
communities.
We
have
a
lot
of
affordable
housing
properties
that
we've
funded
and
you
know
for
retreats.
We
know
we
we
use
some
of
their
community
rooms.
We
could
potentially
access
those
properties
as
well
where
they
are
but
I.
We
agree
that
venue
is
very
important.
That's
why
we
want
to
work
very
carefully
on
this
on
this
outreach
plan
and
thanks
for
the
feedback,
so
I'm
sorry
tell
me
again.
I
K
I
I
So,
typically,
what
we've
been
doing
in
outreach
is
we're
making
translation
available
change
a
translation
services
available
people
do
have
to
ask
for
it,
but
we
we
will
get
folks
there
to
translate,
and
sometimes
the
CBO's
who
are
hosting
the
meeting
can
provide
the
translation
other
times
we
bring
translation
from
city
hall.
So
we
know
the
multilingual
is
extremely
important,
and
actually
we
have
several
people
who
are
on
the
housing
department
staff
that
speak
multiple
languages.
I
G
Depending
on
where
the
meeting
is
I
mean,
even
if
we
don't
get
a
request,
if
we
know
that
we're
gonna
be
doing
a
meeting
in
in
a
community
that
that
needs
that
will
oftentimes
go
ahead
and
just
have
translators
come
in
anyway
in
some
of
our
anti
displacement
meetings,
some
of
the
breakout
facilitation
groups
were
actually
facilitated
in
language,
in
Spanish
and
in
Vietnamese,
and
then
translated
back
for
in
the
notes
that
were
shared
so
we're
possible.
We
found
that
having
facilitation
and
language
is
really
really
helpful.
G
It
just
it
does
take
more
time
and
resource
to
then
translate
back
to
English
in
terms
of
geography.
That's
absolutely
a
great
point,
so
we're
looking
at
doing
10
to
12
focus,
group
meetings
and
so
I
think
as
well
as
three
three
large
meetings.
So
we
will
definitely
look
to
spread
those
out
geographically,
especially
in
the
communities
that
are
kind
of
the
focus
of
the
plan,
which
is
areas
where
there
is
high
concentrations
of
of
poverty
and
segregation.
G
K
I'd
asked
you
to
consider
at
an
including
child
care
and
also
partnering
with
the
faith-based
community
as
well,
and
schools
for
locations
and
meeting
spaces
and,
and
so
I
also
wanted
to
see.
Is
there
as
part
of
the
community
engagement
strategy?
Has
consideration
been
made
to
including,
like
a
university
partner,
to
be
a
thought
partner,
as
this
process
moves
forward.
G
Not
yet
that's
it,
that's
a
great
idea.
I
think
now
would
be
a
great
time
to
invite
them
in
if
they
were
interested
in
joining
the
the
advisory
group.
You
know
again
ad
once
once
about
once
a
month
and
and
I
think
part
of
being
part
of
the
idea.
What
behind
the
advisory
group
is
that
those
people
would
then
go
out
into
their
own
networks
and
help
share
out
the
information
and
help
gather
information
so
yeah?
Absolutely,
if
are
you
thinking,
Communiversity
or
or
some
other
well
I.
K
I
Will
add
that
we
work
with
community
on
the
federal
grant
side
and
we're
also
trained
to
figure
out
how
we
can
work
with
them
more
often
so
that
they
can
bring
the
San
Jose
State
knowledge
and
the
connection
with
the
communities
that
they
do
represent
and
whether
they're
able
to
think
about
widening
their
geographic
focus
at
all.
But
to
kind
of
help.
To
think.
I
K
Know
it's
convenient
to
work
with
existing
partners
and
ask
them
to
spread
their
geographic
focus,
but
part
of
what
I'm
saying
here
is
work
with
neighborhoods
that
already
exists
and
and
I
know
it's
more
work.
But
there
are
a
lot
of
people
in
neighborhoods
that
get
cut
out
of
processes
because
they
don't
have
connection
with
us
almost
mayfair.
They
don't
have
that
connection
with
the
community,
and
so
there
are
a
lot
of
voices
that
don't
get
heard,
and
so
that's
that's
why
I'm
bringing
that
up!
K
B
K
G
So
one
of
the
interesting
things
about
the
afh
when
it
was
first
conceived
of
back
in
2015,
was
that
HUD
or
the
federal
government
was
going
to
prepare
a
lot
of
the
data
for
you,
they're
gonna
prepackaged
it
it's
a
combination
of
all
kinds
of
stuff,
demographic
data.
They
came
up
with
their
own
kind
of
index
for
poverty
and
racial
concentration
and
they
called
them
recaps,
and
so
they
had
this
whole
set
of
pre
pre
arranged
data
that
was
pulled
from
the
American
Community
Survey
in
the
census
and
other
sources.
They
have
stopped
updating
that.
G
G
G
G
We
have
lots
of
great
information
here
as
well
locally,
that's
and
together
those
two
things
plus
the
community
data,
which
is
all
the
the
lived
experience
that
we'll
be
hearing
from
the
community
outreach.
Those
two
things
will
really
set
the
stage
so
to
speak,
for
what
are
the
issues
and
then
does
it
and
we'll
we'll
look
at
them
both
and
say:
does
the
data
tell
the
story
that
we're
hearing
in
the
community
or
if
we
see
some
patterns
in
the
data
we
can
ask
the
community.
G
The
data
says
this:
what
is
this
just
a
weird
anomaly
like
in
the
one
example
I'll
share?
Is
they
showed
us
a
picture
of
a
map,
a
map
from
San
Luis
Obispo
and
they
were
looking
at
demographics,
and
so
there
is
this
one
census
tract
that
had
an
extremely
high
proportion
of
african-american
people
like
just
way
off
the
charts,
a
total
outlier,
and
so
they
had
to
look
at
that
and
say.
Why
is?
Why
is
this?
Is
this
a
neighborhood
a
community
turns
out
it
was?
G
It
was
a
prison,
so
they
had
to
know
what
that
data
meant
and
they
had
to
put
the
data
into
perspective.
So
that's
why
it's
really
important
for
them
to
kind
of
cross-reference
each
other
to
understand
that
what
the
community
is
saying
versus
what
the
data
is
saying
and
together
that
will.
Hopefully,
you
know
the
more
accurate
and
representative
picture
and.
G
K
G
End
of
January
early
February
for
the
public
as
well
as
committees
to
see
so
we'll
have
to
think
about.
You
know.
If
we're
gonna
come
to
your
committee
in
February,
then
we
have
to
make
sure
we
can
make
all
the
memo,
deadlines
and
whatnot,
but
so
yeah.
It
would
definitely
be
in
early
2020,
February
or
March
at
the
latest
and
would.
G
H
H
K
E
Thank
you.
I
actually
had
some
questions
about
the
data
too.
As
a
you
all
know,
I'm
a
mortgage
broker
by
profession
and
to
get
that
real
that
license
it's
a
real
estate
license
I
have
to
renew
my
license.
Every
four
years,
I
have
to
take
a
fair
housing
class
which
takes
which
covers
everything
soups
to
nut
soup
to
nuts,
as
it
relates
to
fair
housing,
where
Fair
Housing,
Equal,
Opportunity
lenders,
etc
in
a
loan
application.
We
are
required
by
federal
law
to
complete
a
Honda
report.
Are
you
familiar
with?
E
That
is
that
data
will
that's
for
my
colleagues,
the
HMDA
report
is
when
you
apply
for
a
loan.
It's
the
it's
the
part
of
the
application
that
asks
what
your
race
is,
whether
you
identify
it
or
not.
The
lender,
taking
the
application
from
you
has
to
sort
of
guess.
If
you
won't
fill
it
out,
they
have
to
guess
that's
required
by
the
federal
government,
and
then
you
have
to
almost
information
is
given
to
the
ultimate
lender.
E
E
So
my
question
about
the
HMDA
report
is
it's
really
good
data?
It
does
target
homeowners
because
it
has
to
do
with
the
loan
application
and
information
there,
but
that
would
be
good
data
to
determine
whether
there
is
any
level
of
or
where
any
discrimination
or
discriminatory
practices
might
be
occurring.
So
will
your
consultant
have
access
to
that
or
be
utilizing
that
yeah.
G
E
E
The
the
old
way
we
used
to
redline,
thankfully,
is
illegal,
but
I,
remember
in
my
early
days
as
an
escrow
officer,
getting
a
legal
description
about
a
particular
property,
and
it
would
say
on
the
preliminary
title
report,
that,
if
you're
african-american
or
any
other
other
races,
you
can't
rent
to
these
people
and
it's
just
it's
unconscionable
and
you
would
find
those
on
these
legal
descriptions
in
as
recent.
Well.
This
is
the
80s
is
when
I
started
in
the
business.
E
I
mean
they're,
not
there
anymore,
they've
all
been
removed
from
property,
but
it's
still
unconscionable
that
we
would
even
have
that
level
of
discrimination.
So
I
look
forward
to
the
report
and
the
assessment
on
how
we're
going
to
resolve
fair
housing,
but
it
I
am
committed
to
fair
housing.
It's
part
of
who
we
should
all
be
and
I
know
we
I
know.
E
My
council
colleagues
are
very
focused
on
it
as
well,
but
it's
it's
critical
that
we
take
a
look
at
everything
from
a
fair
housing
lens
and
it's
not
just
race,
its
religion,
its
sexual
orientation
and
many
and
it's
income
status
income.
How
income
is
generated
is
all
part
of
those
statistics.
So
thank
you
and.
A
B
I
B
F
F
You
know
you
work
with
your
council
offices
and
they
have
great
relationships
with
some
of
these
schools
already
anyway,
and
and
so
you
can
connect
with
those
principals
and
and
like
I
said
some
of
them
have
great
turnouts
and
you
have
an
audience
already
built
in
you.
Don't
have
to
do
outreach,
especially
for
some
of
these
title,
one
schools.
F
They
have
monthly
meetings,
whether
it's
the
PTA
meetings
or
whether
it's
the
principal
coffees
or
some
of
the
other
clubs
that
they
meet
already
they're
already
built
in
and
so
you're
not
asking
them
to
have
yet
another
meeting
you're
not
asking
them
to
go
anywhere
else,
they're
already
dropping
off
their
kids
they're
already
there
at
the
school.
So
I
just
wanted
to
put
that
in
there,
because
it
also
gives
you
an
opportunity
to
meet
those
goals
or
maybe
even
double
your
goals.
A
G
That
was
a
different
approach,
but
it
was
called
the
analysis
of
impediments
to
fair
housing.
So
was
it
was
the
same?
It
was
a
plan,
that's
required
as
part
of
our
HUD
obligations,
and
this
plan
will
also
meet
that
same
obligation,
but
this
is
a
different
way
of
doing
the
fair
housing
plan.
It's
more
robust.
It's
more
community
input
driven,
it's
more
data
driven,
okay,.
J
Right
because
it's
its
wedded
to
that
right,
okay,
so
what
I
was
going
to
ask
is
that,
even
though
it
was
called,
it
wasn't
as
robust
the
the
what
he
used
to
be
called
the
information,
the
data
that
was
produced
I'm
just
trying
to
think
of
outcomes
right.
So
we
get
this
data,
it
shows
X,
Y
Z.
How
does
it
sort
of?
How
does
it
come
alive
in
some
of
the
policies?
Can
you
give
me
an
example
of
something
that's
yeah.
G
Similar
leave
the
last
plan
had
there's
a
work
plan
associated
with
goals
and
action.
So
this
one
in
the
same
way
it
does
the
analysis
both
of
the
community
input
and
data.
It
identifies
the
issues,
it's
that's
measurable
goals
and
then,
and
then
it
commits
the
city
to
actions
to
achieve
each
of
the
each
of
those
goals.
So.
J
G
G
G
You
know
legal
representation
for
people
facing
eviction.
You
know
those
are,
you
know,
there's
programs,
some
of
them
are
more
focused
on
trying
to
think
of
what
I
was
just
looking
at
Los
Angeles's
plan
and
I
forgot
to
bring
it
it's,
but
they
can.
They
can
dig
and
range
I,
didn't
say
just
an
existing
policy.
So,
for
example,
we're.
G
J
Do
we
say
and
based
on
the
the
robustness
of
this
time
around
as
compared
to
the
way,
maybe
the
data
amount
of
dad
or
the
way
it
was
gathered
in
the
past?
Would
you
suspect
that,
what's
going
to
sort
of
what
this
process
is
going
to
give
birth
to
is
strong
recommendations,
especially
I'm
sure
acknowledging
some
of
the
challenges
we
think
we
have
in
the
city
yeah.
I
G
J
B
J
I
Will
only
be
able
to
do,
you
know,
undertake
a
small
proportion
of
what
is
needed
in
the
community,
but
well
it'll
inform
the
identification
of
those
priorities
so
create
more
affordable.
Housing
is
probably
going
to
be
one
of
them
priorities,
but
yes,
it'll
it'll
educate
those,
as
well
as
other
input
and
staff
kind.
J
I
I
It's
a
blend,
but
you
know
if
what
we
so,
for
instance,
this
assessment,
if
our
housing
is
necessary
to
kind
of
undergird,
how
we
look
at
our
know,
housing
element
and
so,
for
instance,
for
that
cycle,
2023,
maybe
and
plus,
eight
years
where
the
inventory
of
land
is
going
to
be.
That
is
buildable
for
housing,
for
instance.
Now
that
we'll
have
done
this
assessment
about
where
the
racial
and
ethnic
concentrations
are
and
where
the
Inc
low-income
concentrations
are.
I
If
what
we
did
was
turn
into
the
state,
something
that
didn't
comport
at
all,
with
a
concept
of
fair
housing
that
would
have
ramifications
they,
they
would
insert
a
Phi
the
housing
element,
and
then
they
also
wouldn't
that
would
make
us
ineligible
for
a
bunch
of
different
programs
from
the
state,
and
it
could
also
lead
to
some
strong
counseling
or
enforcement.
I
mean
we
don't
even
know,
what's
gonna,
be
in
law
by
then,
but
it's
all
the
trending
towards
enforcement.
So.
B
H
J
You
and
I
ask
you
those
questions
simply
and
I,
based
on
everything,
I've
heard
and
what
I've
read
and
things
I've
read
in
the
past.
It
doesn't
seem
to
be
the
case
here,
but
sometimes
I,
just
wonder
if,
if
we
as
a
city,
sometimes
when
we
have
to
give
out
reports
or
plans
to
the
feds
or
whomever
it
may
be,
sometimes
I,
just
I
wonder
if
we're
like.
J
J
Do
because
this
is
my
last
comment
because
I
see
I'm
getting
eyes.
So
let
me
just
say
that
I,
really
this
this
to
me,
seems
very
promising
to
really
pull
him
back
the
curtain
and
seen
what
really
exists
in
the
city
of
San,
Jose
and
I
really
hope
that
it
really
does
sincerely
become
the
springboard
to
really
uncovering.
What's
happened
over
the
years
and
what
is
happening
now
to
try
to
move
forward
policies
that
I
think
help
address
as
I
am
so.
Thank
you
for
all
the
work.
A
G
Okay,
I
can
talk
about
the
lawyers
Committee
for
civil
rights,
so
they
are
the
consultant.
That's
gonna
be
working
on
the
afh
they
are
based
in
Washington
DC
they
have
about
their
office,
is
about
60
people,
primarily
civil
rights
attorneys.
They
they
are
experts
in
fair
housing
law
and
they
have
completed
a
number
of
afh
plans.
G
Amongst
those
plans
that
they've
completed
were
ones
that
were
sort
of
held
up
by
HUD
as
good
examples.
You
know
even
two
years
ago,
when
Ahad
was
fully
behind
this.
Before
the
administration's
changed
Philadelphia
New
Orleans,
they
were
involved,
I,
don't
know
if
they
were
particularly
leading
on,
but
they
were
involved
in
those
plans,
city
and
county
of
LA.
We
got
a
glowing
letter
of
support
from
the
housing
planner
they're,
saying
that
they
did
a
great
job
in
LA
as
well.
G
So
in
personally,
just
in
the
kickoff
meeting
last
week,
I
really
felt
confident
that
they
needed
their
stuff,
like
the
fact
that
they,
the
way
they
were
answering
our
questions
and
the
way
that
they
were
already
working
on
the
ground,
trying
to
connect
with
stakeholders
and
then
from
there
connected.
You
know
stakeholders
like
they've
done
this
before
and
so
I.
You
know
it's
talking
to
Robert
Lopez,
like
we've,
both
felt
really
good
about
the
consultant.
That's
that
we're
working
with
on
afh,
wonderful.
A
A
So
they're
gonna
bring
in
some
of
that
background
information
and
and
gather
all
of
that
data
make
sense
of
it
analyze
it
and
then
tell
us
how
the
the
input
that
we've
gathered
through
outreach
and
focus
groups
and
whatnot
have
those
two
correlate
or
if,
if
they
do
or
what's
the
story
that
they
that
that
it's
the
data
is
telling
that's
right.
Yeah.
G
So
they're,
you
know
there
are
two
different
work
products.
The
assessment
of
fair
housing
will
be
one
plan
and
then
the
consolidated
plan
will
be
a
separate
one
and
both
consultants
will
be
it
they're
already
interacting
with
each
other.
So
they
know
that
one's
work
is
gonna
feed,
the
other's
work.
B
G
They
will
be
writing
the
plans
for
us
and
we'll
be
reviewing
and
giving
comments
and
giving
them
input
on
on.
You
know.
We
would
like
that
Ridge
to
go
this
way.
We
would
like
to
make
sure
we're
connecting
them
and
directing
them,
but
they'll
be
doing
the
initial
kind
of
analysis
bringing
together
the
inputs
from
the
community,
as
well
as
from
the
data
wait.
G
Do
some
of
it
yeah
we've
already
connected
them
with
a
lot
of
groups.
Literally
this
week,
we've
been
talking
to
them
about
the
logistics
of
how
do
we
actually
operationalize
this?
So
we
had
initial
discussions
about
where
would
be
some
good
opportunities
in
the
next
six
weeks,
so
I
think,
with
what
we've
heard
today,
we
will
be
following
up
with
with
our
FH
consultant
and
suggesting,
as
council
member
karrasco
suggested,
trying
to
piggyback
or
overlap
with
other
meetings.
One
thing
we
are
doing.
G
B
A
And
then,
if
there's
some
stakeholders
that
are
not
responding
to
this
group,
because
it
is,
it
sounds
like
a
very
formal
group,
very
competent
group,
but
it's
the
lawyers
Committee
for
civil
rights.
I,
don't
know
you
know
if
it's
it's
a
friendly
name.
They
know
us,
so
they
may
pick
up
the
phone
a
little
faster,
maybe
right,
I'm,
not
saying
that
I
wouldn't
pick
up
the
phone
if
it
was
a
lawyer,
but
I
may
not
pick
up
the
phone.
A
So
I
want
to
make
sure
for
me
that
that,
of
course,
you
know
all
of
these
folks
represent
some
sort
of
family.
I
mean
families
make
are
made
up
really
differently
nowadays,
right
and
so
very,
very
blended,
but
I
just
want
to
make
sure
we.
We
have
focus
on
children.
We
have
focus
on
on
our
families
and
especially
single
parents,
and
let
me
see
what's
there
another
so
I
will
provide
you
with
the
list
of
all
of
the
suggested
locations
and
whatnot
for
my
school.
Just
for
my
district.
B
A
The
last
thing
I
wanted
to
suggest
is:
is
the
schools
already
have
PTAs
you
may
want
to
gather
from
them
and
in
most
school
districts
they
have
a
PTA
for
all
the
PTAs
and
so
their
reps
from
everybody.
In
that
way,
you
don't
have
to
go
to
each
of
the
schools,
but
they
could
be
representative
of
their
respective
schools,
and
then
that
way
you
gather
all
of
the
school
district
information,
a
map
it
again
to
provide
that
information
as
well.
I
think
that
was
it
for
my
my
feedback.
I
was
just
oh.
A
A
F
F
And
everything
that's
led
us
up
to
this
point,
and
that
is
that
has
that
has
caused
the
laws
to
change
in
fair
housing,
or
that
has
that
now
we
have
fair
housing.
It
is
something
that
you
will
be
presenting
to
the
folks
that
that
you'll
be
talking
to,
and
that
gives
them
an
understanding
as
to
why
we
are
where
we
are
and
now
why
the
cities
are
now
responsible
to
make
sure
that
that
never
happens
again,
because
not
to
do
that
really
sets
us
up
to
have
data
or
have
an
engagement.
F
F
You
know
we
have
senior
homes,
I
have
a
huge
concentration
of
senior
housing
in
my
district,
it's
gonna
be
very
difficult
to
get
meaningful
conversations
from
from
our
communities.
If
we
don't
include
seniors
and
to
be
able
to
be
there
where
seniors
are,
some
of
them
are
never
going
to
leave
their
homes
because
of
many
many
reasons
we
know
this
and
so
to
be
able
to
go
where
they
are
I.
F
Think
it's
really
important
and
even
though
they
have
community
halls,
they're
not
even
gonna,
go
into
the
community
halls,
but
they
may
give
you
access
into
their
own
units
or
their
own
apartments
and
to
be
able
to
have
individual
interviews
with
them.
They
love
the
companies,
so
they're,
very
chatty,
chatty,
so
I
say.
J
Just
very
quickly,
you
know:
I
met
you.
A
few
months
back,
I
got
I
was
kind
enough
to
get
a
book
from
a
council
member
as
far
as
it
was
called
the
color
of
law.
It
actually
talks
about
this
and
they
just
in
the
context
of
the
history
of
the
United
States
and
many
many
examples
within
the
book,
actually
talk
about
the
bear,
Richmond
San,
Jose,
mopida,
Milpitas,
and
so
what
I
would
say
to
the
extent
the
budget
allows.
J
J
A
Last
thing
I
just
want
to
say
that
we
need
to
also
close
the
loop,
so
we
ask
people
for
that
information
and
what
happens
with
that
input?
I,
don't
want
to
make
sure
that
people
know
that
it
was
valuable,
that
it
meant
something
it's
part
of
a
greater
plan
and
so
that
we
can
continue
to
honor
their
that
their
feedback
and
for
them
to
continue
to
trust
us
and
and
attend
our
many
many
meetings
that
we
ask
them
to.
Thank
you
so
much
and
I
look
forward
to
the
next
phase.
I
Thank
you.
So
this
is
the
much-awaited
update
on
the
development
of
our
next
five-year
consolidated
plan
and
again
this
will
oversee
how
we
use
funds
that
we
get
from
the
US
Department
of
Housing
and
Urban
Development.
Maybe
we'll
give
a
color
and
the
color
of
law
book
away
to
anyone
who
could
name
this
for
funds
without
them,
seeing
the
slide
first.
L
We
should
be
very
familiar.
I
was
here
last
month
talking
about
our
consolidated
annual
performance
and
evaluation
report,
also
known
as
our
caper,
which
reports
on
performance
of
our
federal
funds
and
the
consolidate
plan
is
just
HUDs
ambiguous
way
of
telling
us
of
a
report
that
assesses
our
community's
needs
and
how
to
best
strategize,
to
make
the
most
impact
within
our
communities
with
the
federal
funds
that
we
get
and
this
five-year
consolidate
plan
is
required
by
HUD
and
we
receive
about
fourteen
million
dollars
annually.
I
thought
we
were
gonna.
Do
the
pop
quiz.
L
So
we
have
our
four
funding
programs
that
are
within
this
consolidated
plan.
You
know
them
as
the
Community
Development
Block
Grant,
which
is
one
of
our
largest
funding
sources
and
most
flexible
our
home
investment
partnership
program,
which
focuses
on
the
building
of
affordable
housing.
That's
rare,
so
I
was
tenant
based
rental
assistance,
our
housing
opportunities
for
persons
with
AIDS,
half
way
grant
and
our
smallest
grant,
but
still
mighty
emergency
solutions
grant
that
deals
with
homelessness.
L
So,
in
the
last
five
years
from
2015
2020,
these
were
our
consolidated
plan
goals
and
we
we
use
this
to
the
I
to
RFP
for
services
and
provide
services
within
our
community.
So
the
first
one
is
increasing
and
preserving
affordable
housing
opportunities,
and
these
these
are
programs
that
you're
that
you're
very
familiar
with
that
include
building,
affordable
housing,
providing
tennis
bait,
tenant-based
rental
assistance.
The
second
one
is
responding
to
homelessness
and
its
impact
on
the
community.
This
is
our
street
outreach
programs
and
our
homeless
prevention
programs
strengthening
neighborhoods.
L
These
are
neighborhood
engagement,
programs
and
minor
repair
and
and
senior
services,
and
then,
of
course,
promoting
fair
housing,
which
are
fair
housing
programs
and
our
legal
services
and
interesting
note.
I
just
want
to
kind
of
make
that
connection
for
councilmember
Jimenez.
As
far
as
how
we
identify
priorities
through
the
afh.
L
At
the
same
time,
the
consultant
will
provide
us
with
strategies
they
have
identified
that
will
address
high
priority,
priority
needs
and
cities
and
the
city's
goals,
and
then
they'll
draft
the
consolidator
plan
and
based
on
those
strategies
and
which
will
give
us
a
benchmark
to
track
our
progress
over
the
next
five
years.
The
plant,
the
comp
plan,
will
guide
us
on
what
types
of
services
to
advertise
nonprofits
for
bidding
and
then
finally
provide
those
services
to
the
community
and
I.
Think
I
remember
at
the
cheaper
meeting.
Another.
B
L
Council
Jimenez,
you
mentioned
about
kind
of
like
our
homeless
services
and
how
you
feel,
like
maybe
we're
stuck
in
you,
know,
doing
some
kind
of
the
same
services
over
and
over
and
I.
Think
that's
a
very
good
point
and
that's
why
we
have
this
plan
and
that's
why
so
much
input
is
needed
now
to
kind
of
change
that
right
and
change
our
direction,
but
also
within
the
confines
of
the
restraints.
That
kind
of
HUD
gives
us.
L
And
then
we'll
move
to
the
public
engagement
process,
which
is
very
similar
to
the
afh,
will
be
how
holding
large
public
means
we'll
also
have
a
Community
Survey
that
we're
gonna
be
getting
out
through
every
which
way
possible.
Adam
didn't
mention
pop-up
events,
because
they're
also
doing
this
I
think
for
the
afh
as
well.
Well,
they'll
be
going
to
people
instead
of
just
having
large
meetings,
and
that
includes
public
events
that
will
have
large
gatherings
of
folks.
L
Hud
required
outreach
of
and
HUD
requires
our
our
hearings
for
the
comp
plan.
So
that
includes
two
City
Council
hearings,
the
Housing
and
Community
Development
Commission
hearing
and,
of
course,
coming
back
to
CED
and
NSC
committees.
All
notices
will
be
posted
in
multiple
languages.
Our
intention
is
to
have
the
survey
translated
in
multiple
languages
as
well,
and
it
will
be
available
in
paper.
So
for
those
that
don't
have
access
to
the
Internet
and
I
don't
have
broadband
access.
We
can
get,
hopefully
folks
that
can
mail
it
in
or
or
do.
B
L
And
this
is
our
timeline
and
the
consolidated
plan
assessment
of
fair
housing
working
together,
we've
gotten
past
a
lot
of
the
legwork.
That
includes
convene
our
housing
workgroup
with
the
county
that
Adam
mentioned,
releasing
the
RFP,
awarding
the
contract
to
our
two
consultants
for
the
con
Planet's,
specifically
michael
Baker,
International,
and
and
now
we're
starting
the
public
outreach
and
engagement
process
and,
like
the
afh,
those
draft
plans
will
come
to
back
to
committee
and
to
City
Council
and
made
2024
final
submission
to
HUD
in
May.
L
So
I
think
something
that
we've
received
a
lot
of
feedback
from
Adams
presentation
that
is
important
to
get
as
much
feedback
as
we
can
in
as
many
ways
as
we
can,
and
this
feedback
will
inform
the
community
on
these.
That
would
be
outlined
in
this
plan
and
I
think
we
always
struggle
and
do
you
find
the
most
impact
which
services
will
be
the
most
impactful
which
are
filling
gaps
or
which
were
identifying
new
services
and
which
are
complementing
existing
efforts
because
we
are
working
with
the
very
limited
amount
of
funds
and
I
wish.
L
We
had
300
million
dollars
of
federal
funds
that
we
could
put
towards
services
solve
a
lot
of
problems,
but
when
the
reality
is
we're
receiving
14
million
dollars,
eight
million
dollars
of
that
is
CB.
Jean
15%
of
that
goes
to
public
services
and
people
want.
You
know
a
lot
of
legal
services.
They
want
a
lot
of
neighborhood
engagement
services.
L
H
One
thing
I'd
like
to
add,
though,
is
that
a
consolidated
plan
is
not
only
just
informed
by
this
public
process
and
the
data
that
we're
collecting,
but
it's
also
informed
by
other
reports
that
we're
doing
so
the
anti
displacement
work
that
we're
gonna
do
is
going
to
inform
this.
The
fair
housing
report
informs
this
our
new
homeless
plan
that
we're
doing
with
the
county
and
destination
home.
The
those
planning
efforts
will
also
inform
this
work.
K
K
So
I
had
a
question
on
how
so
the
other
plans
are
going
to
inform
this
work.
But
my
question
is:
how
is
this
going
to
all
of
this
work
going
to
align
with
the
community
plan
and
homelessness
and
the
other?
How
is
it
going
to
align,
not
just
in
form
but
aligned,
so
when
I'm
an
informant
Alliance?
So
it's
going
so.
H
When
the
community
plant
and
homelessness
comes
out-
and
we
say
here-
are
the
different
programs
that
we
think
are
important,
then
we
need
to
consider
those
programs
as
an
opportunity
for
funding
through
the
consolidated
plan.
So
when
he's
playing
his
Bucks
game,
we
need
to
put
some
of
those
new
ideas
that
we're
going
to
hopefully
generate
or
the
priorities
that
are
coming
out
of
that
plan
to
ask
the
community.
Is
this
something
you're
willing
to
invest
and
with
our
federal
dollars?
Okay,.
K
Great,
thank
you
and
then
I
just
was
going
to
make
the
same
point
that
we
hold
focus
groups
as
much
as
we
can
in
actual
neighborhoods
and
I
actually
agree
with
you.
Robert
I
think
a
lot
of
the
sir.
A
lot
of
that
can
be
done
in
person
is
probably
the
best
way
for
to
get
really
good,
deep,
meaningful
participation.
If
it's
just
an
online
link,
I,
don't
think
we'll
hear
a
lot
of
voices
that
we
need
to
hear.
So,
thank
you
and
let
me
know,
I'm
also
happy
to
coordinate
and
help
on
this
outreach.
J
Thank
you,
I
just
had
one
question
on
page
three,
it
says
I
think
the
second
to
last
paragraph
just
reads
it
for
the
consolidated
plan.
The
consultants
will
bloom
at
the
regional
work
plan
right
because
I
think
we're
doing
it
regionally.
It
seems
I.
Think
we've
done
it
like
that
in
the
past,
but
but
the
question
I
have
is
where
it
says,
as
well
as
any
additional
work.
Each
jurisdiction
asks
the
consultants
produce.
So
is
there
anything
else
that
we're
I
mean
curious
as
to
what
our
ask
is
gonna,
be
with
the
dish
yeah.
J
And
even
though
it's
a
regional
plan,
I
mean
these
dollars
that
I
see
here
on
page
2,
for
example,
right
the
CDBG
home.
Yes,
these
are
all
San
Jose
dollars
right
and
is
it
safe
to
assume,
then
that
the
it
seems
to
me
that
CDBG
and
ESG
are
the
most
flexible
and
well
not
Jack,
he's
giving
me
that?
Look,
that's
probably
the
wrong
word
to
use,
but
but
it
seems
to
me
that
more
things,
for
example,
CDBG
I,
see
a
host
of
things
that
are
under
that
right.
J
Well,
yes,
right,
but
but
I
think
it
touches
on
something
that's
already
within
CDBG
right,
the
homeless,
outreach
and
so
I
just
sort
of
lumped
them
together.
That's
why
it
was
speaking
in
generalities,
but
so
that
close
to
assuming
you
know
that
that
same
pot,
it's
close
to
ten
million
dollars,
eight
point,
eight
million
and
CDBG.
J
So
what
I'm
wondering-
and
this
is
just
thinking
ahead
as
to
potential
outcomes
from
some
of
the
work
that
we're
already
doing
with
the
county
and
other
partners
is-
is
the
CDBG
funding
flexible
enough
to
allow
us,
assuming
that,
would
even
be
enough
money
but
to
fund
the?
Let's
just
say
we
found
a
a
vacant
commercial
building.
We
wanted
to
open
up
a
navigation
Center.
Would
that
would
that
money
allow
for
that?
Yeah
I,
don't
know
if
it
would
be
enough,
but
it
would.
H
B
B
I
We've
been
hearing
from
our
HUD
rep
in
San
Francisco
that
the
current
administration
would
like
to
narrow
a
little
bit,
what
CDBG
is
eligible
for
and
whether
they
are
able
to
do
that
administratively
or
whether
it's
more
of
an
informal
guidance
I,
don't
know.
But
we
have
a
meeting
set
up
to
talk
to
them
about
CDBG
and
what
we
think
is
important
to
use
it.
For
so
we'll
be
reflecting
the
fact
that
we,
like
the
flexibility
among
other
things,
but
with
that
flexibility
also
comes
with
it.
I
J
J
I
thought
I
was
about
done,
Beth
I
mean
as
far
as
you're
talking
other
things
come
to
mind.
Is
you
know,
I've
expressed
this
before
so
Jackie.
This
is
gonna
sound
familiar,
but
it
seems
to
me
when
it
comes
to
housing
homeless.
You
know
everything
related
to
housing.
There
seems
to
me
for
me,
there
be
many
many
different
pots
of
money
and
I
always
try
to
wrap
my
head
around
where
all
these
different
pots
are
coming
from
what
the
restrictions
are.
I
I
H
I
J
Reason
I
ask
is
I
think
not
too
long
ago
the
president
was
just
in
the
media
talking
about
California
and
we're
not
doing
enough
about.
He
didn't
mention
San
Jose,
but
I
can
imagine
we're
probably
in
the
crosshairs
as
well
just
curious
if
the
administration
was
interested
in
doing
something
and
I
know
he's
talking
about
water
and
things
of
that
nature,
but
if
they
were
interested
in
curtailing
any
of
the
program
money
and
things
of
that
nature
is-
and
you
sort
of
alluded
to
it-
that
they
may
be
changing
some
things.
J
H
H
Depends
on
how
what
you
know
he's
wanting
to
do
so.
If
he
wants
to,
you
know
impact
a
city,
these
wouldn't
be
the
ones
I
mean
they.
Hud
is
always
subject
to
a
review
every
year
and,
of
course,
they've
selected,
a
director
who's,
not
a
housing
expert
to
oversee
the
the
agency.
So
it's
always
subject
to
pets,
but
it
has
been
the
one
where
cities
have
really
fought
across
the
country,
because
it's
one
of
the
few
federal
resources
that
allow
you
to
do
community
development
type
work.
It's
the
only
one
left,
okay,.
J
Is
is:
is
it
possible
that
there
the
work
in
this
five-year
consolidation
plan
that,
because
I
know
I,
went
when
the
president
recently
came
on?
You
know
the
radio
and
and
print
such
there
were
some
comments
from
some
elected
officials.
Even
the
governor
I,
think
that
said,
listen
you're,
really
interested
in
helping
us
solve
this,
allocate
more
housing
vouchers,
and
so
what
I'm
curious
about
is
is
is
that
is,
is
that
I
guess
that
wouldn't
be
even
here
right
anyway,
I'm
just
curious,
if
anything
like
that
can.
J
H
H
J
H
B
B
A
I'm,
also
hoping
that
the
research
that
your
department
is
doing
in
terms
of
and
working
with,
mckinney-vento
to
explore
some
of
the
ways
that
we
can
continue
to
support
families
with
homeless
families
with
children
are
also
included
and
in
our
accounts
and
our
point
in
time
counts.
We
just
don't
see
them
because
they're
not
out
there
they're,
not,
you
know,
obviously
sleeping
on
the
streets,
but
they
are
couchsurfing
right
and
I.
They
are
also
considered
inadequately
housed
or,
as
you
know,
from
one
day
or
to
another,
they
may
not
be
living
in
that
living.
A
Room
and
they'll
be
unhoused
for
short
stints
right.
So
I
just
hope
that
we
can
continue
to
have
focus
on
our
families
with
children.
I
would
really
encourage
you
to
work
with
some
of
the
family
resource
centers
that
are
that
are
throughout
the
city
and
the
county.
Actually,
those
would
be
really
important,
as
well
as
some
of
their
community
centers
that
are
in
in
some
of
our
disadvantaged
communities.
A
K
Sort
of
one
more
comment
on
outreach,
just
because
I
think
whatever
we
come
out
of
with
the
community
plan
to
end
homelessness
and
its
regional
I,
think
with
these
scarce
resources,
we're
gonna
need
to
follow
the
plan
and
I'm
reminded
by
some
of
the
reports
that
have
come
before
us,
showing
that
54%
of
our
funding
is
going
to
housing
right
to
permanent
housing
for
folks
and
we're
using
other
funds.
You
know
the
other
46
to
outreach
and
all
these
other
staffing
administration.
A
A
Don't
think
I
have
a
motion
on
the
floor
all
in
favor,
okay
against
okay,
so
this
is
moving
forward
and
I.
Believe
I,
don't
have
any
comment
cards
from
during
it
I'm
trying
to
open
up
my
my
agenda.
Cuz
I
closed
it
back
up.
I,
don't
have
any
comment
cards
from
the
community
and
do
you
have
the
intent
or
in
front
of
you
because
I.
