Perfect,
so,
let's
move
on
to
item
number
one
b:
this
is
review
of
the
work
plan.
Can
I
get
emotion
for?
Can
we
call
these
together,
karen
b1
and
b2?
Sure?
That's
fine!
Wonderful.
E
E
Would
you
let
our
public
speakers
in
sure
I
can
do
that.
E
E
Yes,
this
is
kim
gupta.
I
actually
wanted
to
speak
about
the
welcoming
san
jose.
Is
it
okay
to
do
that
now?
You
would
have
to
wait
until
that
item
is
up
for
discussion.
That's.
B
D
Hi
blair
beekman
here
thank
you
good
morning
to
everyone.
D
I
wanted
to
try
to
offer
a
few
ideas
about
rent
stabilization
and
you
know
I
heard
that
the
eviction
moratorium
is
coming
up
soon
and
you
know
there's
good
work
within
the
office
of
equity
at
this
time
of
how
to
kind
of
like
understand,
city
government
practices
better,
and
you
know
I'm
really
interested.
D
You
know
I
try
to
speak
often
about
the
ideas
of
this
can
be
a
time
to
to
really
go
over
ideas
of
how
we
respect
and
need
the
ideas
of
federal
funding
and
state
funding,
and
just
what
those
practices
offer
the
community
and
to
offer
a
refresher
course
on
that,
and
so
we
can
become
familiar
with
that
subject
matter.
D
You
know
thank
you
for
all
the
work
that
you
do
with
that
it
doesn't
convince
the
entire
community,
but
it
it
gets
an
important
message
out
there
and
and
for
that
message
to
be
clear
and
understood,
you
know
we're
trying
to
help
in
this
time
and
if
nothing
else,
try
not
to
be
hurting
other
people
in
this
time
and
look
for
ways
that
that
people
don't
have
to
be
hurt,
and
I
think
something
I
think
this
is
all
towards
a
goal
of
not
doing
this
sort
of
thing
again
to
each
other
and
not
hurting
each
other.
D
With
with
these
large-scale
social
planning
ideas
like
covid
in
the
future,
I
hope
that's
the
long-term
goal.
The
short-term
goal
is
how
people
don't
get
hurt,
you
know
paying
their
rent
and,
and
there
can
be
ways
to
do
that,
and
it's
just
learning
how
to
practice
those
ideas
at
this
time,
and
you
know
keeping
up
and
learning
to
be
knowledgeable
about
it
becoming
knowledgeable
about
ways
that
can
help
each
other
and
we
can
get
out
of
this
situation.
People
don't
have
to
be
hurt.
D
E
I
B
E
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
okay,
so
we're
moving
right
along
to
the
consent
calendar
where
there
is
nothing
there.
So
we'll
move
over
to
one
d,
and
this
is
reports
to
the
committee-
we're
going
to
begin
with
item
d1,
which
is
office
of
immigrant
affairs
activities
and
welcoming
san
jose
plan
2021
to
2024
report.
J
Thank
you
good
morning,
council
members,
colleagues
and
members
of
the
public,
I'm
suleman
massiel,
I'm
the
director
of
the
office
of
racial
equity.
I
am
pleased
to
present
to
you
report
that
highlights
the
work
of
the
immigrant
affairs
team
and,
most
importantly,
the
plan
moving
forward,
as
is
described
in
the
welcoming
san
jose
plan
2.0.
J
I'm
also
excited
to
introduce
you
to
the
new
immigrant
affairs
manager
who
joined
our
team
just
three
weeks
ago.
Chris
cambisis
is,
as
you
could
view
him,
as
one
of
the
panelists
brings
more
than
a
decade
of
experience,
partnering
with
refugee
and
immigrant
communities
across
the
us
and
around
the
world
and
prior
to
joining
the
city.
J
Chris
served
in
various
positions
in
the
non-profit
and
humanitarian
relief
field,
specializing
in
refugee
resettlement,
immigration
policy,
forced
migration
and
displacement,
building,
welcoming
communities,
emergency
management
and
preparedness
and
philanthropy
he's
worked
in
over
a
dozen
countries
in
four
continents,
including
service
with
the
red
cross
in
north
africa
and
southern
europe.
A
proud
immigrant
son
of
immigrants
and
grandson
of
refugees.
Chris
speaks
spanish
and
portuguese,
so
welcome
chris,
and
I'm
so
excited
to
introduce
you
all
to
him.
J
So
first
I'd
like
to
thank
committee,
madam
chair
at
ns,
councilmember
scott
escon,
inspires
up
for
recommending
that
we
have
more
context
about
the
work
that
the
immigrant
affairs
team
did
in
response
to
covet
19
this
past
year.
So
we've
incorporated
that
piece
into
the
memo
and
I
appreciate
your
encouragement
to
codify
the
efforts
because
they
were,
it
was
a
big
workload
and
so
we've
incorporated
a
lot
of
those
details
and
then
there's
a
couple
of
highlights.
That
are
two
slides
that
I
have
to
highlight
some
of
that
work
as
well.
E
B
Right,
in
fact,
as
we're
waiting
chair
dennis
you
know,
perhaps
chris
can
maybe
just
say
a
few
words
of
introduction
to.
H
Chris,
would
you
like
to
introduce
yourself?
Certainly
absolutely
thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much
for
for
summer
for
the
introduction
to
councilman
I'm
delighted
to
to
be
here
delighted
to
be
able
to
not
only
have
the
opportunity
to
speak
before
you
for
the
first
time
to
discuss
the
welcoming
san
jose
plan,
but
also
to
as
a
formal
welcome
for
myself.
So,
as
someone
mentioned,
I
have
an
extensive
background
in
in
working
in
immigrant
affairs,
refugee
resettlement.
E
Committee
knows
that
you
don't
come
to
nsc
not
to
be
placed
on
the
spot
here
if
we
can
actually
gina.
If
you
can
make
that
a
full
screen
that
would
be.
B
Okay,
we
access
the
actual
powerpoint.
Give
me
one.
J
J
Okay,
yeah
that
that'll
work,
it's
also
in
the
included
in
the
attachments,
I
believe
so.
E
J
So
let
me
move
right
along
because
I
feel
like
now
I've
taken
up
too
much
time,
but
so
on
the
second
slide.
Here
again,
it
says:
look
back
right,
so
this
is
this
report,
basically,
is
a
look
back
at
what
the
immigrant
affairs
team
has
done
over
the
last
couple
of
years.
This
report
was
supposed
to
be
in
front
of
you
in
march
of
2020,
but
then,
of
course,
the
pandemic
happened
and
all
of
this
was
deferred
into
until
this
year,
but
the
report
essentially
highlights
some
accomplishments.
J
It
will
also
pro
we
will
also
later
and
chris
will
do
this-
we'll
provide
a
high
level
overview
of
the
goals
and
strategies
in
the
new
plan.
Let's
see
if
you
can
scroll
up
to
the
next
slide.
J
Thank
you.
So
some
of
you
already
know
this,
and
those
of
you
who
are
part
of
establishing
the
office
of
immigrant
affairs
in
2015,
specifically
councilmember
carrasco,
was
there
from
the
beginning
for
those
of
you
who
don't
know
the
history
about
this.
J
I
also
want
to
emphasize
that
the
role
of
immigrant
affairs
team
is
not
to
be
a
direct
service
provider.
We
have
excellent
community
partners
who
deliver
needed
services
every
day,
so
our
role
is
to
convene
to
educate,
to
advocate,
to
coordinate
among
city
departments,
collaborate
across
multiple
jurisdictions,
leverage
resources
and
be
a
bridge
between
the
immigrant
community
and
the
city
on
to
the
next
slide.
Four.
J
So,
in
this
section
of
the
memo,
you'll
find
lots
of
details
about
the
progress
that
was
made,
in
particular
important
collaborations,
with
community
partners
as
well
as
deliverables.
So,
for
example,
we
supported
community
partners
in
naturalization
efforts
through
co-sponsoring
citizenship
workshops
which
served
almost
2
100
immigrant
participants
and
resulted
in
950
naturalization
applications
completed
recently.
The
cet,
which
is
a
partner
organization
center
for
employment
training
and
the
citizenship
partners,
demonstrated
that
they
could
pivot
to
online
citizenship,
application
support
and
so
that
that
just
was
launched
this
week.
J
The
registration
started
in
the
beginning
of
may.
The
direct
legal
support
began
on
monday,
and
I
think
the
numbers
are
going
to
look
really
good.
It
shows
that
our
community
has
pivoted
and
part
of
that
is
that
to
online
and
part
of
that
is
that
there
are
multi-generations
and
in
family
households
and
the
generations
that
are
much
more
comfortable
with
you
know.
Digital
access
are
are
supporting
the
adults
in
this
journey.
J
We
also
operationalize
the
city's
first
ever
language
access
policy
with
city,
vendor
contracts
available
to
all
city
departments,
and
we
provided
a
language
access
training
for
over
a
thousand
city
staff.
We
coordinated
with
the
legislative
team
to
advocate
for
state
and
federal
legislation
to
support
the
immigrant
community
through
15
support
letters
as
well
as
litigation
opposing
the
rescission
of
daca,
adding
a
citizenship
question
to
the
census,
and
we
also
provided
public
comments
on
the
public
charge
rule
and
the
flores
settlement
agreement,
to
name
a
few.
J
J
I
don't
know
that
I
could
need
to
spend
too
much
time
on
the
challenges,
but
we
know
that
the
federal
administration,
the
previous
administration
in
particular,
created
some
very
harmful
and
cruel
immigration
policies
and
as
a
result
that
also
created
opportunities
for
us,
and
that
was
to
build
the
rapid
response
network.
We
also
knew
that
we
needed
to
be
heavily
and
deeply
involved
in
the
census
count.
J
We
also
recognized
the
importance
of
racial
equity
work
becoming
central
in
the
discussions
to
all
you
know,
to
advance
immigrant
friendly
policies
and
and
really
and
due
to
the
advocacy
and
the
insistence
by
members
of
this
council
committee
and
the
community,
the
city
council
voted
to
agree
to
establish
the
office
of
racial
equity.
J
So
all
of
these
opportunities
intersected
over
during
some
very
challenging
times
and
in
this
as
part
of
these
opportunities,
the
immigrant
affairs
team
also
was
deployed
to
the
eoc,
and
while
that
was
a
lot
of
workload
that
we
did
not
anticipate,
it
was
an
opportunity
that
resulted
in
improvements
in
language
access
and
other
areas
of
the
way
that
we
respond
to
emergencies
so
on
to
the
next
slide.
J
So
I'll
try
to
go
briefly
through
the
when
we
pivoted
to
the
coveted
response.
You
know
we
most
of
us
well,
all
of
us
on
the
team.
Stephanie
jane,
sabrina,
garcia,
sabi
and
myself
were
deployed
into
the
eoc,
and
so
we
launched
the
very
first
language
access
unit
in
the
eoc.
J
So
we
set
up
fast
turnaround
contracts
with
professional
translation,
vendors
for
the
daily
flash
reports
that
were
happening.
We
had
those
professional
translations
began
march
of
2020.
They
continued
today.
We
also
recruited
and
coordinated
32
bilingual
staff
for
four
languages,
from
10
departments
citywide
to
serve
on
the
language
access
unit
for
rapid
bilingual
review
and
multilingual
materials.
J
So
there
you
see
the
data
161
flash
reports
in
language,
videos,
multiple
topics,
besides
coven
19,
such
as
census
and
and
other
pieces.
We
also
created
a
glossary
of
878
commonly
used
terms
in
spanish,
vietnamese
and
traditional
and
simplified
chinese
for
use
by
the
eoc
moving
forward,
and
we
also
provided
you
know,
a
number
of
focus
groups
that
would
help
center
the
way
that
we
co-designed
financial
and
rental
relief
in
the
next
slide.
J
If
you
move
up
to
slide,
seven
you'll
see
more
of
the
efforts
that
we
redirected
towards
clovid
to
covert
response
and
also
delineated
in
in
the
memo.
So
I
really
want
to
spend
some
time
on
welcoming
san
jose
plan,
because
that's
really
what
the
next
step
is
here
and
in
the
midst
of
the
cobit
response.
J
So
there
was
this
time
lapse
where
you
know
it
was
developed
in
the
fall
of
2019.
We
couldn't
present
the
plan
to
you
in
2020,
but
a
lot
changed
in
2020.,
so
the
we
conducted.
Basically,
we
had
to
come
reconvene
with
our
community
partners
and
the
community,
and
so
we
conducted
a
two-prong
approach
to
informing
and
developing
the
welcoming
san
jose
plan.
J
We
also
were
audited
by
welcoming
america
right
before
the
pandemic,
which
is
a
national
organization
that
provides
technical
assistance
to
local
governments,
aiming
to
create
a
better
environment
for
immigrants,
and
we
also
did
community
engagement
so
on
the
next
slide.
You'll
see
just
some
highlights
of
what
came
out
of
the
audit
out
of
welcoming
america,
and
I
don't
want
to
spend
too
much
time
on
there
now,
because
I've
gone
on
too
long,
but
you'll
find
some
of
the
areas
where
we
could
do.
You
know,
for
example,
action
items
are
listed
there.
J
Those
are
the
ones
that
are
recommended
by
welcoming
america
and
we
are
now
seeking
ways
to
be
able
to
actually
address
the
areas
that
we
can
improve
on
on
the
next
slide.
You'll,
it
speaks
to
the
community
engagement
process
and,
as
I
mentioned,
we
started
the
work
of
of
developing
the
welcoming
san
jose
plan
in
august
of
2019.
J
We
had
a
visioning
process.
We
then
had
broader
community
input.
There
was
a
prioritization
of
these
strategies.
Then
there
was
a
review
and
then
a
reflection
and
revision
that
happened.
So
you
see
a
gap
there,
because
that
was
during
the
pandemic,
but
we
really
wanted
to
make
sure
that
we
brought
in
our
community
partners
to
to
make
sure
that
the
strategies
that
were
developed
in
the
fall
of
2019
were
still
relevant
and
we
found
that
some
of
them
were
not
that
there
were
different
priorities
because
of
the
pandemic.
J
So
now
I'm
going
to
move
on
to
the
the
task
at
hand.
The
welcoming
san
jose
plan,
and
so
chris
is
going
to
provide
just
highlights
of
the
goals
and
the
strategies.
J
Some
of
them
are
similar
to
the
very
to
the
first
welcoming
san
jose
plan
that
that
was
approved
by
the
by
the
city
council,
and
I
think
what
you'll
find
here
is
that
we're
excited
to
get
started.
This
plan
essentially
will
begin
officially,
if
approved
by
the
mayor
in
the
city
council,
we'll
get
we'll
get
started
on
the
work
on
july
1st,
but
we
do
plan
on
having
in
a
convening
with
all
of
our
partners
to
think
through.
J
You
know
what
are
the
specific
objectives
and
those
measurable
results
that
we
want
to
be
able
to
see,
and
so
the
evaluation
plan
comes
after
the
approval
of
the
strategic
plan.
So
chris
I'm
going
to
hand
it
over
to
you.
H
Thank
you
so
good
morning,
again,
council
members,
the
public
chris
cambisous
immigrant
affairs
manager
for
the
office
of
racial
equity
and
I'm
delighted
to
be
able
to
provide
this
high
level
overview
of
the
welcoming
san
jose
plan
and
the
various
different
components
of
it.
So
I
think
the
first
important
thing
to
keep
in
mind
about
it
is
that
it
is
both
aspirational,
aspirational
and
actionable
as
well.
H
It
is
it
comprises
24,
different
strategies,
and
each
of
these
strategies
are
spread
across
four
core
pillars,
and
you
can
see
the
the
the
pillars
listed
here:
leadership
and
communications
access
and
engagement,
education,
economic
opportunity
and
safe
communities.
So
these
pillars
and
strategies
represent
a
very
crucial
step
forward
towards
building
on
the
robust
infrastructure
that
exists
in
the
city
to
support
immigrant
welcoming
and
belonging
as
well.
H
So
these
strategies,
as
asuma
mentioned,
will
require
very
close
collaboration
with
our
many
community
partners,
who
have
been
part
of
the
formation
of
this
plan
and
as
a
direct
service
providers,
will
be
the
ones
who
very
much
advance
it.
I
will
scroll
to
the
next
slide
please
so
someone
mentions
provide
very
high,
a
high
level
overview
of
the
individual
strategies
and
the
goals
so
for
each
one
of
these
core
pillars,
there's
a
goal
associated
with
it.
H
So
with
leadership
and
communication,
our
goal
very
much
is
to
establish
equitable
systems
and
policies
and
practices
throughout
the
city
that
create
a
welcoming
and
inclusive
environment
that
allows
immigrants,
immigrant
residents
of
color
and
people
all
people
also
say
to
thrive.
H
So
a
few
examples
of
the
different
strategies
that
have
been
identified
and
developed
for
advancing
this
particular
pillar
is
developing
and
building
upon
existing
city
and
county
communication
mechanisms
to
ensure
consistent
and
timely
messaging
and
information
dissemination
to
the
immigrant
community,
and
also
development
of
a
structure
to
discuss
coordination
of
policy
and
procedures
that
impact
immigrant
communities
and,
as
we
have
been
doing,
continuing
to
support
legislation
that
protects
immigrant
rights,
provides
a
pathway
for
citizenship,
legal
permanent
residency
or
protected
status,
including
comprehensive
immigration
reform
and
next
slide.
Please.
H
So,
for
example,
this
includes
strategies
such
as
amplifying
partner
organizations,
naturalization
and
voter
registration
efforts,
things
that
we've
done
in
the
past
and
we're
looking
to
expand
significantly
moving
forward,
as
well
as
daca
application
efforts
through
public
education
and
awareness
campaigns,
recognizing
that
we're
very
much
at
a
time
now
where
these
policy
changes
will
be
coming
very
very
quickly,
and
we
want
to
ensure
that
we
provide
that
support.
But
it
also
includes
things
like
addressing
anti-blackness
in
immigrant
communities
and
fostering
bridge
building
between
communities,
including
indigenous
populations
as
well.
H
Next
slide,
please,
the
third
pillar
is
education,
economic
opportunity.
The
goal
here
is
very
much
to
advance
educational
and
economic
opportunities
among
immigrants
and
refugees
through
job
skills,
training,
strengthening
career
pathways,
promotion,
entrepreneurship,
small
business
retention
and
growth
and
financial
literacy.
H
Naturally,
as
we
emerge
from
the
curb
at
19
pandemic,
ensuring
a
the
inequitable
recovery
for
all
of
our
communities,
particularly
immigrant
communities
in
the
city,
is
crucial.
A
number
of
different
strategies
for
approaching
this,
but
we're
going
to
work
with
and
partner
with
local
employers,
community
colleges
and
immigrant
serving
organizations
to
facilitate
credentialing
and
certification
processes,
as
well
as
accelerate
apprenticeships
and
career
pathways.
Foreign
training
professionals,
in
addition
to
promoting
immigrant
entrepreneurship
and
supporting
immigrant-owned
small
businesses
and
scroll.
The
next
slide.
H
Please
and
the
fourth
pillar
is
safe
communities,
and
the
goal
here
is
fostering
trust
and
communication
between
law
enforcement,
local
governments,
immigrants
and
community
at
large.
At
the
heart
of
this
continuing
support
for
our
community
partners
who
are
operating
the
rapid
response
network,
which
has
served
to
protect
and
defend
community
members
that
are
at
risk
of
deportation,
as
well
as
mobilizing
receiving
community
and
engaging
leadership.
B
H
H
J
Yeah,
thank
you
chris,
and
then
you
know,
and
finally
I
just
I
want
to
reiterate
that
this
really
was
a
collaborative
process
and
that
we
can't
do
this
work
without
the
partners
in
the
community
who
do
this
work
every
day
and
who
advise
us
and
who
we
lean
on
really
because
they
are
trusted
in
the
community
and
they
provide
excellent
services.
So
thank
you
to
all
of
our
partners.
J
I
also
want
to
thank
stephanie,
jane
and
sabrina
para
garcia,
who
you
know
we're
a
small
team,
a
small
and
mighty
team,
and
they
worked
not
only
to
help
co-develop
this
welcoming
san
jose
plan,
but
amidst
everything
else
respond
to
many
of
the
challenges
that
that
you
know
came
our
way
because
of
the
previous
administration
or
because
of
covid.
J
So
thank
you
to
our
partners
and
with
that
I
ask
for
your
approval
of
the
or
acceptance
of
the
report,
the
welcoming
san
jose
plan
as
we'd
like
to
cross
reference
this
to
the
june
15th
council
meeting
for
approval.
I
know
the
memo
says
june
8th,
but
it's
going
to
be
the
june
15th.
So
with
that,
I'm
happy
to
take
questions.
E
Great,
so
we're
going
to
go
to
mr
beekman
and
for
public
comment.
D
Hi,
thank
you
for
this
item.
Blair
beekman
here
I've
been
waiting
for
this
item
for
quite
a
while.
Now
ever
since
the
days
that
paul
soto
was
still
attending
meetings,
I
missed
paul.
I
wish
he
was
around
and
seems
like
a
nice
time
to
say
hi
to
him
and
I
hope
he
can
return
to
the
public
meeting
process
for
this
item.
Yeah.
D
Thank
you
for
describing
how
to
prepare
the
immigrant
community
in
time
of
emergency
and
the
ideas
of
equity
that
can
be
used
at
this
time.
I
you
know
with
you
know:
I've
been
going
on
and
on
about
possible
upcoming
disasters,
natural
disasters
in
the
bay
area.
In
the
next
few
years
we
can
readjust
ourselves
to
really
ask
questions
of
what
can
be
equity
for
that
at
this
time
and
what
can
be
ideas
of
reimagine
and
what
can
be
ideas
of
defund?
D
D
That's
what
I've
been
trying
to
do
the
past
few
weeks,
I'm
not
trying
to
be
crazy,
I'm
trying
to
be
how
to
adjust
our
conversation,
and
so
thanks
for
your
patience
with
that,
I
hope
we
can
do
that
with
the
immigrant
community
at
this
time,
and
you
know
I'm
it's
really
important
to
me
that
we
work
on
the
interpretation
issues
and
how
you
know
to
invite
the
community
with
different
interpretations
to
the
zoom
process,
develops
just
a
good,
peaceful,
better
community
practices.
D
E
Thank
you,
mr
bakeman.
I'm
going
to
go
back
to
the
committee
and
see
if
there's
any
hands.
This
is
tony.
We
have
two
other
public
speakers.
I.
E
Last
time
I
looked,
it
was
just
mr
bakeman,
yes,
you're,
absolutely
right.
Tony
okay
go
ahead
kim.
B
Yes,
my
name
is
kim
guptill
and
I
live
in
district
six
and
as
a
member
of
showing
up
for
racial
justice
at
sacred
heart
and
a
trained
rapid
responder.
I'd
like
to
express
my
full
and
enthusiastic
support
for
the
welcoming
san
jose
plan.
I
know
it's
a
product
of
deep
engagement
with
all
the
communities
of
san
jose
and
reflects
an
insane
amount
of
work
by
the
tiny
staff.
B
E
Thank
you,
kim.
Okay,
go
ahead,
speaker
with
a
number
ending
two
seven
six.
K
Nine
hi
hi
good
morning
this
is
mimi
hernandez.
I'm
the
executive
director
of
prosperity,
lab
prosperity
lab
is
a
nonprofit
organization
we
develop
and
facilitate
programs
and
initiatives
that
uplift
and
empower
women,
microenterprises
and
immigrant
communities
towards
business
growth,
economic
advancement
and
economic
mobility.
K
We
are
here
today
in
support
of
the
welcoming
plan
san
jose
plan.
San
jose's,
innovative
spirit
is
due
in
large
part
to
the
contribution
of
our
immigrant
communities.
Immigrants
are
a
growing
population
in
our
city,
and
their
fate
affects
all
of
us.
Investing
in
the
welcome
san
jose
plan
is
just
plain
good
for
our
city.
The
immigrant
business
community
that
I
work
with
holds
great
promise.
They
create
jobs.
They
make
investments
and
contribute
sales
revenue
to
our
economy,
especially
in
san
jose
little
saigon
called
willow
and
the
pockets
in
south
san
jose,
amongst
others.
K
K
It
helps
to
protect
our
small
businesses,
supports
their
growth
and
provides
financial
literacy.
These
are
all
ingredients
for
prosperity.
By
approving
the
welcoming
san
jose
plan,
our
city
will
allow
the
many
partners
to
continue
our
work
collaboratively
across
sectors
and
with
the
city
with
the
office
of
immigrant
affairs
and
to
deepen
those
partnerships.
K
K
E
Thank
you
so
much
mimi
and
kim
we're
going
to
go
back
to
the
committee,
and
let
me
see
what
the
my
participants
look
like.
Councilmember
carrasco.
F
Well,
thank
you
so
much
and-
and
I
appreciate
that
we
we
went
back-
that
we
pushed
this
out
a
little
bit
further
to
add
more
more
of
the
of
the
substantial
work
that
was
done,
especially
during
a
very
difficult
year
this
past
year.
The
pandemic,
of
course
posed
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
challenges,
and-
and
so
I
just
have
you
know-
and
I'm-
and
I
again,
I'm
really
glad
that
it
was
included
in
this.
F
Really.
I
just
have
a
couple
of
of,
I
guess,
questions
in
terms
of
moving
forward
and
and
I
I'm
trying
to
look
through
it
again,
I'm
looking
at
the
attachment,
as
well
as
the
presentation
I'd
like
to
be
able
to
see
greater
involvement
with
the
different
council
offices
included
in
the
work
plan.
Given
that
you
know,
working
with
the
different
partners
is
fantastic
and
these
are
the
boots
on
the
ground.
F
These
are
the
folks
that
are
really
doing
a
lot
of
the
bulk
of
the
work
that
we're
hoping
that
they'll
do
as
people
are
trying
to
navigate
through
very
complicated
systems,
whether
it's
education,
city,
bureaucracies,
legal
institutions,
etc.
We
have
all
these
wonderful
allies
and
partners,
but
your
council
offices
are
going
to
also
have
their
finger
on
the
pulse
of
the
community
and
and
many
times
we
hear
of
individuals
who
are
in
desperate
need
of
services.
Usually
what
we
do
is
we
connect
them
directly
to
siren
or
somos.
F
We
direct
them
to
the
law
foundation,
but
but
this
is,
I
think
that
this
is
an
opportunity
for
the
office
to
gain
greater
depth
and
knowledge
of
each
district,
because,
as
you
mentioned,
it's
such
a
small
team
you're
not
going
to
get
out
there
to
10
different
districts.
F
J
Thank
you,
councilmember
yeah,
I
mean,
I
think,
the
more
people
that
we
have
with
that
pulse
of
the
community
who
are
who
are
making
us
aware
of
either
needs
or
shifting
in
you
know,
need
areas
or
priorities.
I
think
that
that
would
be
important
and
so
we'll
think
through
how
to
make
sure
that
there's
regular
engagement
with
the
offices,
whether
it
be
a
team
member
who
participates
in
a
you,
know
quarterly
briefing
or
monthly
check-in
I've.
F
Yeah
I
like
to
see
it
actually
memorializing
the
plan,
because
I
think
that
that
is
an
important
piece
and
whether
you
continue
to
oversee
it
or
if
at
some
point
something
were
to
change.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
it's
embedded
in
there
and
then
the
other
thing
is,
you
know
I
know
in
in
the
bigger
scheme
of
things.
F
This
may
not
seem
to
be
an
important
thing,
although
I
think
that
it
translates
into
into
other
issues,
and
it
translates
in
terms
of
how
we
do
outreach,
how
we
engage
people,
how
we
go
into
different
communities
and
respect
communities.
F
You
know
we've
talked
about,
or
I
brought
up
the
issue
of
the
word
latinx
and
I'm
going
to
send
you
an
article
of
those
who
have
of
those
who
are
latino
who
who
latinx
is
supposed
to
represent
a
very
small
percentage
of
the
latino
hispanic.
Chicano
community
has
actually
heard
or
understands
the
term
latinx
and
of
that
percentage.
F
So
could
you
explain
to
me
why
I
keep
seeing
it
in
in
different
reports
and
and
and
I'm
always
going
to
come
back
to
this
office
as
well
as
the
office
on
race
and
equity,
because
I
think
that
this
is
one
of
those
conversations
that
needs
to
be
led
by
by
this
office,
because
it
is
the
way
that
that
the
rest
of
the
city
is
beginning
to
engage
and,
as
I
had
mentioned
it
maybe
two
weeks
ago,
at
our
3.1
update.
F
If
we're
trying
to
reach
the
immigrant
community
who's,
not
getting
vaccinated,
we're
we're
using
terminology
on
our
flyers
and
our
social
media
that
people
don't
identify
with
so
had
my
if
my
mother
were
still
alive
and
she
were
to
look
at
that.
She
wouldn't
think
that
you
were
speaking
with
her
or
to
her
or
inviting
her.
So
so
so
I
just
have
a
curiosity
as
to
why
this
term
keeps
popping
up
when
only
three
percent
of
the
folks
who
have
heard
it
are
the
ones
that
identify
with
it,
which
is
very
minute.
J
J
Who
knows
what
will
come
next,
but
what
I
can
say
is
that
for
the
instances
where
latinx
has
been
used,
it's
been
used
to
be
much
more
inclusive
of
people
who
do
not
identify
as
latina
or
latino.
Who
are,
you
know,
gender-neutral
non-binary
and
they
feel
excluded
with
when
it's
gender,
specific
latina
and
latinos,
so
that
just
seemed
to
be
the
most
inclusive
way
of
saying
that.
But
we're
might
but
thank
you
for
raising
that
issue
about
the
fact
that
there
are
certain
communities,
particularly
monolingual
communities,
that
speak
spanish.
J
That
latinx
is
not
relevant,
so
I
think
you're
right,
I
think,
as
an
organization
we
have
to
decide
what
are
those
terms
we
that
are
most
appropriate,
not
just
for
a
latino
latina
but
filipina
filipino
philippines.
J
You
know
like
that
is
starting
to
there's
a
lot
of
other
conversations
happening
around
terminology
and
you're
right
that
I
think
we
have
to
have
a
conversation
about
it
with
community
and
then
maybe
come
to
an
agreement
of
what
are
the
terms
that
we
want
to
use.
Moving
forward.
F
Yeah
I
I
appreciate
that
and-
and
I
appreciate
the
inclusivity
but
as
I
had
mentioned
before-
in
using
it
you're
being
exclusive
now
of
the
very
people
you're
trying
to
address,
and
so
that's
that's
the
concern
that
I
have
that
it
keeps
popping
up
everywhere.
I
I
you
know.
I
think
that
we
need
to
figure
out
another
way,
but
then
I
would
challenge
if
our
our
point
is
to
be
inclusive
of
non-binary
or
others
who
identify
with
non-specific
gender
pronouns
or
non-specific
gender
identities.
F
Then
everywhere
we're
gonna,
we're
gonna
include
in
our
in
our
vocabulary
or
in
our
literature,
where
it
says
young
men
and
women.
We
should
also
exclude
that
and
just
say,
young
human
beings.
F
I
I'm
trying
to
understand
how
we're
just
focusing
on
a
a
term
that
I'm
telling
you
folks
do
not
identify
with
it
and
the
ones
that
do
I.
I
have
a
clear
respect
for
for
people
who
choose
their
identification,
but
those
who
can't
voice
it.
Those
who
come
in
from
other
countries,
especially
especially
latin
america,
who
don't
use
the
term
latinx.
How
is
that
a
welcoming
term,
when
suddenly
you
label
them
as
latinx?
F
I
just
I
find
that
to
be.
You
know
it's
it's
difficult
for
me
to.
It
really
is
getting
more
and
more
difficult
for
me
to
continue
to
support
our
literature,
memos
policies
that
include
language
that
clearly
does
not
represent
the
community
that
I
was
voted
into.
F
So
I
I
want
to
put
that
out
there
and-
and
I
do
appreciate
that
you
took
out
bipac
because
it
it's
not
representative,
again
of
a
community
that
I
represent,
but
again
and-
and
this
is
also
you
know-
just
as
I
was
listening
to
chris
welcome
chris
to
the
first
meeting.
But
but
but
this
is
a.
This
is
a
delicate
and
and
sensitive
matter.
F
When
we
speak
of
indigenous
communities,
I
I
have
to
remind
everybody
that
the
majority,
even
like,
say
mexico,
which
are
the
majority
of
the
immigrants
that
are
here
in
in
in
san
jose.
When
we
talk
about
latin
america,
so
the
majority
of
mexico
doesn't
even
consider
themselves
indigenous,
they
consider
themselves
mestizo.
F
So
when
we
we
deliberately
take
out
or
or
are
forcing
people
to
identify
as
indigenous
or
latinx,
where
do
we
leave
the
other
90
of
individuals
who
just
don't
identify,
as
as
you
know,
as
latinx
or
indigenous
this?
This
again,
I
know
it
seems
like
a
small
thing,
but
given
that
the
nature
of
this
office
and
the
office
on
race
and
equity,
I
think
that
this
is
where
this
conversation
and
debate
falls
squarely
in.
F
How
do
we
help
individuals
feel
welcomed
when
now
we're
calling
them
indigenous
and
they
don't
identify?
My
mother,
didn't
you
know?
My
mother
had
was
born
blonde
haired
with
green
eyes,
and
she
may
have
some
indigenous
blood
in
her,
but
she
identified
herself
as
mexicana
or
mestiza,
and
I
think
and
that's
the
that's
the
great
majority.
When
we
look
at
the
research.
That's
the
great
majority
of
the
individuals
who
are
migrating
and
then
or
or
now
we're
telling
them
to
check
off
the
box
in
their
latinx.
F
So
you
know
if
I
could
get
your
feedback
on
that,
and
I
see
it.
I
see
it
by
the
way
peppered
throughout
the
memos
here,
including
the
attachment
that
was
included
in
this
agenda.
B
Councilmember,
if
I
could
also
kind
of
just
win
on
this,
you
know
you
know
that's
one
of
the
challenges
and
opportunities
that
we
have
as
we
embark
in
this
work.
You
know,
there's
you
know
we're.
B
Example,
there's
there's
various
perspectives
that
are
right
now,
quite
frankly,
colliding
right
and
but
but
you're
absolutely
right.
This
is
this
does
fall
in
the
work
and
the
context
of
the
office
of
race
and
equity
and
we're
going
to
kind
of
work
through
this
in
conversation
with
community.
The
goal
would
be
is
is
not
to
kind
of
create
a
conversation
that
is
going
to
kind
of,
exclude
or
or
divide
the
community,
but
rather
look
for
those
shared
opportunities
so
that
we
could.
B
So
that
we
could
most
importantly
advance,
you
know
this
work
in
in
a
meaningful
way,
and
so
I
think
your
points
are
very
well
taken.
This
is
a
tough
challenge
it
and
it
is
a
tough
issue
to
to
really
reconcile.
L
But
you
know
we're
definitely
up
up
to
that
and
we're
going
to
continue
to
work
through
that
and.
B
F
Yeah
and
I
I
absolutely
agree-
we
have
to
look
at
the
the
the
bigger
picture
and,
what's
our
target,
what's
our
purpose?
What's
our
vision,
but
you
know
I
I'm
gonna
go
back
to
this.
I
because
this
is
this
is
just
this.
Is
you
know
it's
a
thorn
in
my
side
right
now,
I
have
to
be
quite
honest
with
you,
because
my
team
has
really
been
struggling
and
we're
knocking
on
doors
trying
to
pull
people
out.
F
Councilman
response
is
going
to
have
to
correct
me
on
that,
but
we
had
to
put
people
out
there
on
the
streets
in
order
to
do
this
work
because
for
whatever
reason
you
know
this
is
a
community
that
needs
a
lot
of
just
you
know
we
have
to
embrace
it.
They
need
hand-holding.
F
F
J
Yeah
I
could
answer
that.
The
through
the
racial
equity
work,
the
government
alliance
on
race
and
equity,
it's
been
a
standard
term
to
reflect
on
race
and
not
ethnicity,
and
so
that
is
the
that
is
the
standard
across
cities
and
counties.
But
you
bring
up
some
good
points
that
maybe
we
need
to
reflect
more
on.
You
know
locally,
but
and
also
doing
some
education
on
the
differences
between
race
terms
and
ethnicity.
J
So
you
know
we
look
forward
to
continuing
those
conversations
and
I
think
we
having
conversations
with
the
community
will
be
an
important
next
step.
F
So
the
hispanic
community
latino
community
falls
when
you
look
at
race
falls
in
the
indigenous
category.
J
People
of
color,
an
indigenous
primarily
native
americans,.
F
But
when
I'm
checking
off
the
census,
the
census
boxes
did
it
say
people
of
color
for
me
as
a
latina
as
a
mexican.
J
No,
you
marked
off
the
ethnicity
section,
probably
with
latino
one.
J
I'm
not
sure
what
you
know
you
could
mark
off.
However,
you
would
identify
in
terms
of
yeah
right.
F
No,
that's
ethnicity
is
it?
Is
it
people
of
color
because
you
just
said
it's:
it's
people
of
the
people.
F
F
J
F
Yeah
I
and
and
again
because
you
just
mentioned
race
and
ethnicity,
are
two
different
things,
and
so
I'm
gonna
go
back
to
to
you
know
when
you
look
at
race,
it's
very
limited
under
the
census
terminology
super
limited,
and
so
we
were
chose
we
had
to
choose.
Am
I
white,
you
know
as
part
of
the
race,
or
am
I
indigenous?
F
I
can't
remember
what
other
one
they
had
in
there.
I'm
not
asian,
I'm,
not
black,
and
so
so
there
was
very
little
available
to
us
and
so
in
terms
of
ethnicity,
though
again
you
know
when,
when
I've,
when
I've
looked
at
the
research
and
that's
why
I'm
asking
I'm
asking
you
to
give
me
research
that
supports
the
term
latinx,
not
another
organization,
that's
using
it.
I
want
to
know
where
the
research
is.
That's
using
that
that
supports
latinx
that
says,
hey
the
majority
of
the
hispanic
latino
community,
spanish-speaking
community
identifies
as
latinx.
J
Yeah
councilmember,
I
don't
feel
like
I
wait-
am
I
on
yeah.
I
don't
feel
that
I
have
the
level
of
research
background
to
speak
to
all
of
these
terms,
but
we'd
be
happy
to
pull
up
the
research
and
and
try
to
uncover
more
about
what
these
different
terms
mean.
F
Then
I'm
going
to
ask
please
please
until
we
can't
define
that
please
hold
back
from
using
it
again.
That's
going
to
be
my
my
my
recommendation.
Please
hold
back
from
using
it
and
dividing
the
latino
community
even
further.
I
believe
that
this
is
a
very
divisive
term.
I
I
believe
that
this
is
a
term
that
is
going
to
be
very
politically
charged
for
a
lot
of
different
reasons.
F
But
if
that's
going
to
be
the
case-
and
we
want
to
be
inclusive,
then
then
scratch
out
young
men
and
women
all
across
all
of
your
memos.
Don't
include
that
human
beings,
you
know
walking,
breathing
entities,
you
know
black
white
and
breathing
entities.
F
I
don't
know,
use
another
another
term,
that's
non-gender
specific,
but
I'm
assuming
that
we'll
never
use
women
and
men
again
in
our
in
our
language
and
and
if
that's
the
way
we
go
well,
that's
the
way
we
go,
but
but
I'm
going
to
tell
you
again
unless
you
can
show
me
the
research
that
says
this
is
the
way
that
our
latino
hispanic,
spanish-speaking
and
immigrant
community
identifies,
and
they
feel
welcomed.
F
I'm
going
to
ask
you
to
refrain
from
using
that
again,
because
this
is
not
a
conversation
or
a
debate
that
I
want
to
continue
having
until
we
truly
have
a
forum
to
have
this
conversation,
but
it
should
not
be
embedded.
It
should
not
be
embedded
in
any
of
our
of
our
professional
work
that
goes
out
there
and
promoting
a
term
that
divides
a
community.
I
I
believe
that
this
divides
a
community.
I
mean
we're
having
this
conversation
even
right
now.
F
I'm
sure
that
other
latino
leaders
are
gonna
say
well,
you
know
I'm
using
it,
I'm
okay
with
it
and
I'm
gonna
have
a
very
different
opinion
on
it,
and
so
this
is
a
very
divisive
term
and
by
the
way
this
was
not
a
self-identified
term.
This
was
a
term
that
was
an
academic,
a
scholarly
term
just
like
when
we
in
the
in
the
70s
and
in
the
80s,
when
we
were
really
really
fighting
against
the
word
hispanic.
F
Why
was
the
word
hispanic
so
controversial
because
it
was
not
a
self-identified
term.
The
community
didn't
choose
it.
We
as
a
whole
didn't
come
up
with
it.
It
was
imposed
upon
us
by
government
officials
to
make
things
just
easier
to
be
clumped
together,
and
so
we
didn't
like
it
and
we
didn't
identify
as
that,
and
so
I'm
telling
you
right
now
I
didn't
choose
latinx.
F
My
community
didn't
choose
latinx.
The
immigrant
community
didn't
choose
latinx.
It
was
a
scholarly
academic
term
that
that
was
was
conjugated
in
such
a
way
and
it's
being
now
imposed
on
a
community
and
I'm
not
gonna
continue
to
perpetrate.
E
That
councilmember
carrasco
can
I
jump
in.
I
apologize
if
I'm
interrupting
your
flow.
I
I'm
very
supportive
and
understand
your
point
of
view.
I
think,
there's
a
distinction
here
between
gender
and
ethnicity,
and
I
agree
that
we're
lumping
all
in
one
category.
E
This
is
also
pointing
to
the
the
grammatically
gender
composition
of
the
spanish
language
or
filipino
language
or
french
language.
There's
a
lot
of
languages
that
have
gender
based
built
into
them,
and
so
how
do
we
address
that?
Do
we
do
away
with
a
whole
language
simply
because
it
points
to
gender,
and
I
doubt
that
we
are
going
to
stop
speaking
that
way
in
spanish,
and
so
what
I
would
like
to
do
is
is
ask
if
what
we
could
do
is
as
part
of
that
engagement
process.
E
E
I
would
like
to
see
what
what
the
groups
in
that
the
immigrant
groups
in
in
in
the
community
did
have
to
say
about
these
labels,
but
I
I
would
like
to
draw
the
distinction
between
gender
and
ethnicity
and-
and
I
agree
that
latinx
is-
is
putting
us
clumping
us
all
together
and
so
there's
a
lot
of
folks
who
are
very
proud
of
their
gender
as
I
am
and-
and
I
don't
want
to
neutralize
it
right,
and
so
I
I
think
this
is
what
you're
hearing
so
much
is
that
I
I
don't
have
to
point
out
to
my
mother
to
say
you
know
that
that
she
wouldn't
agree
with
latinx.
E
I
I
certainly
don't
identify
as
that,
and
so
I
never
use
the
term.
I
do
appreciate
that
there's
folks
who
have
different
gender
identities,
and
I
absolutely
will
honor
that
in
in
in
my
exchange
and
conversations
with
them,
and
so
I
think,
we're
talking
about
two
different
things
and
we
are
conflating
that
so
latinx
and
gender
latino
or
latina
and
gender
are
being
lumped
together.
So
how
about?
E
If,
if
it's
appropriate,
I
would
love
to
see
what
our
community
groups
have
to
say
about
that,
but
I
think
what
you're
hearing
council
member
carrasco,
who
is
representing
almost
all
of
the
east
side,
is
that
her
community
doesn't
identify
with
this,
and
I
think
you're
going
to
hear
I
don't
know
about
councilmember
esparza
councilmember
jimenez,
but
I
certainly
do
agree
with
her.
E
So
I
would
like,
maybe
if
whoever
makes
the
motion
a
further
analysis
on
on
this
term,
so
that
we
can
begin
to
ex
differentiate
between
gender
and
ethnicity
and
not
mix
them
all
in
one,
because
that
is
exactly
what
would
happen
with
with
with
that
former
label
of
hispanic.
Nobody
really
uses
it.
It
is
absolutely
most
offensive
to
most
people,
so
anyways
I'd
love
to
hear
if
we
can
have
councilmember
carrasco.
Would
you
agree
with
this
and
and
and
incorporate
it
into
a
motion?
E
I
would
like
to
to
have
a
next
step
for
this.
For
this
conversation.
F
I'm
formulating
a
a
motion,
but
I
appreciate
that.
Thank
you
so
much.
F
I'm
gonna
I'm
going
to
I'm
going
to
let
the
other
council
members
speak.
I
have
a
couple
of
other
points,
but
I'll
go
ahead
and
wait
on
that.
E
Council,
my
record
axel,
please
I
I
apologize
to
interrupt
you.
I
just
I
I
really
wanted
to
contribute
in
in
maybe
helping
distinguish
both
of
these
things
and
also
having
a
follow-up
action
item
on
this,
because
I
I
don't
want
it
just
to
be
cross-listed
to
our
council
colleague
our
council
meeting
and
then
rehash
this
whole
conversation
over
again
anyways.
I
I
appreciate
your
your
feedback
and
and
look
forward
to
that
motion
all
right,
so
I'm
gonna
move
on
with
council
members
far
saying
councilmember
glasgow.
C
I've
tried
a
couple
of
devices
and
anyway
so
I'll
I'll
be
really
quick,
and
I
wanted
to
mention
a
couple
of
things
one
I
did
want
to
echo
councilmember
carrasco's
recommendation
to
coordinate
with
council
offices,
because,
whether
it's
census
or
covid,
frankly,
our
offices
have
been
heavily
involved
in
community
outreach
and
coordination,
because
we're
on
the
ground
and-
and
I
just
would
like
to
remind
folks
that
our
offices
we
haven't
been-
you-
know,
locked
away
during
the
pandemic-
we've
been
out
in
the
community
since
march
2020,
and
so
so
I
I
just
I
wanted
to
to
highlight
how
important
that
is.
C
We
are
out
on
the
ground
with
our
neighborhoods,
with
our
communities
and
and
yes
with
with
our
immigrant
communities,
because
even
though
they
may
not,
especially
in
the
four
years,
the
last
four
years,
you
know
they
may
not
trust
government.
They
may
not.
You
know,
trust,
federal,
government
or
even
local
government,
but
we
have
a
personal
relationship
with
our
residents.
C
I
think
council
member
carrasco
has
often
talked
about
how
you
know.
Often
you
know
where
we're
inside
people's
houses,
you
know
having
a
little
cafeto
meeting
the
family,
that's
a
big
part
of
our
relationship
with
our
constituents,
and
so
so
we
do
have
that
personal
relationship,
and
I
think
please
use
us
because
I
think
that's
really
important
and
we
often
work
with
folks
that
that
don't
belong.
I
mean
I'll
speak
for
myself
in
district
seven.
We,
you
know
a
lot
of
my
folks.
C
You
know
some
of
them
are
part
of
of
other
organizations.
But
I'll
tell
you
the
vast
majority
of
residents
you
know
aren't
connected
to
other
groups.
C
In
fact,
that's
one
of
our
biggest
challenges
is
trying
to
encourage
folks
to
to
get
connected
and
and
especially
given,
covid
they're,
feeling,
really
isolated
and
and
so
we're
out
there
knocking
on
doors
and
and
I'll
tell
you
councilmember
carrasco
and
I
and
I've
seen
councilmember
aranas's
office
we've
been
we've
had
community
meetings
we've
been
outside
during
covid,
because
these
relationships
are
so
often
in
person,
relationships
that
an
email
and
often
even
a
phone
call
isn't
going
to
going
to
cover
it.
C
And
so
again,
please
use
us
and
and
recognize
that,
like
so
many
things
in
life,
there
aren't
a
lot
of
shortcuts
and
this
building
these
relationships
are
very,
very
labor-intensive
highly
rewarding
hi
hi
work
hi
reward.
C
Secondly,
I'll
weigh
in
on
on
the
latinx
and
and
thank
god
for
stop
using
bypoc
a
lot
of
latinos
feel
like
they're
being
erased
by
that
term
and
and
given
a
large
number
of
latinos
in
san
jose.
I
think
we
should
take
their
opinions
into
consideration.
So
thank
you
for
not
using
that.
C
I
will
say
that
the
term
latinx
is
it's
folks
and
my
sister,
I
mean
a
lot
of
time.
C
Residents
don't
really
use
it,
and
I
we
want
to
use
self-identified
terms
if
we're
trying
to
build
relationships
with
folks,
and
I
also
wanted
to
caution
that
that
a
lot
of
our
the
perspective
of
reports
and
outreach
plans,
I
just
want
to
be
careful
that
we
don't
bring
like
a
caucasian
perspective
or
an
angle
perspective
to
a
lot
of
these
reports
that
we,
we
include
the
perspective
of
the
residents
that
we
serve
and
very
quickly.
I
I
did
want
to
address
two
things
in
the
report.
C
One
is
addressing
anti-blackness
in
the
immigrant
community
and
I
would
frankly
I
prefer
to
see
anti-hate,
because
there's
been
a
lot
of
hate
and
a
lot
of
discrimination
in
these
past
few
years
and
there's
plenty
of
that
to
go
around
I'll.
Tell
you
right
now
and
we've
seen
it
speaking
as
one
of
the
council
members.
C
There
are
several
of
us
here
on
this
committee
who
have
had
to
fight
to
have
latinos,
get
served
during
covid
and
have
had
to
fight
for
a
lot
of
our
residents
because
within
our
asian
community
we
have
a
lot
a
lot
of
diversity
and
a
lot
of
folks
get
left
out
and
so
and
there's
a
lot
of
been
a
lot
plenty
of
discrimination
and
hate
to
go
around,
and
we
really
need
to
focus
on
that
culture
of
sitting
down
and
talking
to
folks
and
relating
to
each
other
as
human
beings.
C
And-
and
so
I
wanted
to
address
that.
There's
another
thing
that
I
wanted
to
address
in
that
report
on
reimagining
communities
and
I'll
tell
you
you
know.
C
Unfortunately,
there
was
a
shooting
in
my
district
on
mother's
day
and
and
somebody
was
shot
and
killed
at
a
barbecue
minding
his
own
business
celebrating
a
barbecue.
You
know
on
mother's
day
and
he
was
shot
and
killed
and
it
was
heartbreaking,
and
so
we
had
a
community
meeting
and
I'll
tell
you.
This
neighborhood
was
rock
springs:
high,
immigrant
community,
it's
about
50
percent
latino
and
about
50
percent
asian
of
that
asian.
Most
of
that
is
vietnamese.
C
We
had
a
big
turnout
monday
night
at
a
community
meeting
to
really
talk
about
this
crisis
incident
and
excuse
me,
and
we
had
a
lot
of
immigrants
in
that
meeting
as
well
and
I'll
tell
you
one
of
the
things
that
they
all
wanted
was
more
police
and
they
actually
asked
for
cameras
and
so
and
they
want
they
want
and
deserve
all
resources,
but
the
20
year
olds,
who
were
standing
next
to
their
friend
and
watched
him,
get
shot
and
killed,
stood
before
the
police
captain
and
asked
for
more
police
and
said
why
don't
you
come
into
our
neighborhood
more
right,
and
so
I
want
to
also
be
mindful
of
bias
in
the
report
that
we
write
that
we
talk
about
all
the
resources
that
we
don't
bring
our
own
biases
into
that
report,
and
we
really
let
the
residents
speak
for
themselves
as
they
did
so
eloquently
monday
night
in
district
7..
C
E
Thank
you,
councilmember,
esparza,
and,
and
thank
you
for
really
supporting
our
community.
It's
heartbreaking
when,
when
some
of
these
very
tragic
incidents
happen,
and
it
really
impacts
all
of
us
as
we
are
closer
than
ever,
because
of
shelter
in
place,
and
even
though
some
of
the
restrictions
have
been
loosened
up,
we're
still
kind
of
in
place,
we
we're
not
quite
moving
just
yet
and
so
we're
all
witnessing
each
other's
difficulties.
E
I
I
also
wanted
to
share-
and
you
reminded
me
that
that
I
had
this
mom,
who
called
me
on
mother's
day
weekend,
looking
for
her
son
who,
who
had
been
stabbed
and
it,
and
in
that
conversation
I
learned,
you
know
she
was
a
former
she's-
a
survivor
of
domestic
violence
and
she's.
A
widow
she's
had
to
deal
with
gangs
in
her
in
her
neighborhood
and
and
addiction,
and
there's
just
so
much
that
our
community
has
to
deal
with.
E
And
many
of
these
things
are
symptoms
of
of
of
not
being
able
to
settle
into
our
community
and
and
have
a
roof
over
their
heads
or
have
a
job
that
can
pay
for
what
their
children
need
or
really
the
racial
discrimination.
E
That
continues
to
happen
against
latinos
and
and
people
of
color
that
that
we
can't
over
continue
to
overlook
and
so
part
of
what
I'm
gonna
give
in
terms
of
feedback
is
I'd
like
for
us
and-
and
I
hope
that
this
could
be
integrated
into
the
motion-
that
when
there
are
there's
community
input
and
feedback
that
there
be
at
least
one
community
meeting
in
each
of
our
districts,
especially
in
those
districts
that
have
a
higher
percentage
of
people
of
color
and
and
during
the
pandemic.
We
know
these
are.
E
These
are
the
hardest
hit
communities,
because
I
I
mean
I
love
that
the
community
agencies
are
providing
that
feedback,
but
sometimes
we
want
to
just
hear
it
from
straight
from
from
them
in
their
voice
and
in
their
perspective
and
one
of
the
things
as
I
was
looking
at
the
report
was,
I
was
trying
to
match
up
the
areas
of
growth
in
in
the
audit
that
was
completed
and
the
responses
that
that
were
given
in
terms
of
of
the
of
that
audit,
and
I
would
like
to
see
a
further
breakdown
of
the
of
the
plan
in
response
to
what
that
feedback
was
already.
E
E
I
don't
know
if
they're
one
in
the
same,
but
I
think
there's
value
in
what
we
have
been
learning
about
our
community,
especially
in
this
last
year.
They
have
shared
their
woes
with
us.
We
have
been
out
there.
I
know
council,
member
carrasco
and
councilmember
esparza
know
their
community
very
well
and
have
been
out
there,
and
so
I
would.
E
E
One
of
the
concerns
that
that
the
groups
provided
was
that
there's
currently
a
gap
in
leadership
for
the
asian
pacific,
islander
community,
and
so
I'd
like
to
see
a
specific
strategy
that
addresses
that
and
then
the
third
area
is
that
interviewers
expressed
a
concern
about
the
time
that
they
needed
to.
E
I
guess
that
in
which
they
needed
to
participate
and
give
feedback
during
council
meetings,
and
so
I
would
suggest
for
us
to
and
maybe
for
when
we
come
to
rules
or
when
it
comes
to
rules
or
when
it
comes
to
any
of
your
items,
come
to
council
that
we
ask
for
time
specific-
and
I
you
know
I'm
part
of
the
rules
committee.
So
I
will
make
sure
that
I
keep
that
in
mind.
E
E
I'd
also
like
to
see
in
the
area
of
growth
d,
a
very
specific
racial
equity
plan
for
each
of
the
departments,
and
if
I
realized
this
is
a
lot
and
you
may
not
have
that.
But
I'd
like
to
see
what
the
status
is
on
those
and
I'd
like
to
have
counts.
Also,
or
at
least
this
particular
committee
have
some
feedback
on
those
as
well
and.
E
Lastly,
I
wanted
to
ask
about
the
area
e,
which
is
the
goal
setting
monitor
and
an
impact,
and
currently
feedback
program
relies
heavily
on
relationships
between
o.
I,
a
staff
and
community
leaders,
formal
systems
to
assess
impact,
should
be
put
in
place
and
I'd
like
to
learn
more
about
what
that
looks
like
and
so
what
I
guess.
We
can
begin
with
my
last
comment,
which
is
that
what
would
that
look
like?
J
Yeah,
thank
you
for
the
question.
So
the
the
formal
system
is
basically
having
a
formal
evaluation
plan,
so
we've
enlisted
an
evaluation
consultant
who
will
be
working
with
the
team
and
then
with
community
partners
to
craft
the
specific
measurable
pieces
for
each
of
these
strategies.
So
how
do
we
actually
carry
out
each
of
the
strategies
who's
responsible
by
when
and
what
ultimately
do
we
want
to
see?
And
so
that's
that's
what
we
mean
by
formal
evaluations
now.
E
J
J
So
we
rely
on
our
partners
to
be
able
to
report
back
specific
pieces
of
data
or
qualified,
or
you
know,
narratives
on
the
work
that's
happening,
and
so
we
need
to
get
agreement
upfront
on
what
it
is
that
we'll
be
collecting
so
that
next
fall.
When
we
return
to
the
neighborhood
services
and
education
committee,
we
have
sort
of
year.
One
results
right
based
on
these
strategies.
This
evaluation
plan
is
basically
will
help
us
determine
the.
E
E
I'm
not
going
to
say
all
of
my
groups
in
my
district
are
immigrant
based,
but
I
guess
there
could
be
and
there's
you
know
different
immigrant
populations,
my
district
than
there
are
of
my
colleagues.
So
we
have
a
large
indian
community.
E
We
have
a
significant
filipino
community
and
and
of
course
vietnamese,
but
the
largest
in
the
city
is
latino,
and
so
that's
what
I'm
going
to
look
for
is
to
make
sure
that
the
the
groups
that
are
living
here
are
equally
represented
in
the
way
that
one
in
the
strategies
that
we
address
these
groups
and
two
in
the
level
of
partnership.
E
Who
are
immigrants
or
children
of
immigrants,
and
so
we
can
see
what
that
what
that
looks
like,
and
then
I
I
like
to
see
how
the
work,
because
I
think,
there's
a
really
good
opportunity
here
for
the
office
of
immigrant
affairs
to
connect
with
the
office
of
race
and
equity,
because
this
this
could
be
the
arm
for
the
office
of
race
and
equity,
to
do
a
lot
of
work
around
our
plan
when,
whenever
that
plan
is
unfolded,
there's
I
think
we
we
missed
an
opportunity
to
bring
in
those
immigrant
groups
to
give
us
in
real
time
feedback
about
how
are
we
doing
in
this
pandemic
and
what
it?
E
Of
course,
we
were
proactively
looking
out
for
that
feedback
in
our
own
respective
districts,
but
I
think
it
makes
the
work
so
much
easier
when
it's
strategic,
when
we
find
a
way
to
pull
people
in
when
things
are
very
difficult,
and
we
always
know
that
during
hard
times,
whether
it's
a
pandemic
or
an
economic
crisis
that
the
immigrant
groups
in
those
cities
are
always
going
to
be
impacted.
First,
their
businesses
are
being
impacted
right
now,
not
by
the
pandemic
and
also
by
other
economic
factors
such
as
the
flea
market.
E
Right
now
that
that
land
is
up
in
question
and
people
are
opposing
the
the
transformation
of
that
land,
and
that
is
an
item
that
I
believe
this
this
office
could
really
advocate
and
bring
groups
together.
E
I
have
folk
that,
because,
once
that,
if,
if
that
closes,
that
means
that
there
is
a
tremendous
group
of
immigrants
that
are
going
to
be
displaced,
small
businesses
that
are
going
to
be
displaced,
that
means
their
livelihood
is
in
jeopardy
and
we
know
what
what
that.
What
that
cycle
is
thereafter
and
so
part
part
of
this
is
working
with
office
of
economic
development,
the
office
of
immigrant
affairs
and
race
inequity.
E
There
is,
I
think,
a
natural
conversation
that
needs
to
take
place
in
order
for
make
for
that
to
continue
to
happen,
and
so
I'd
like
to
see
the
office
of
immigrant
affairs
office
of
race
and
equity,
the
work
strategically
aligned
and
the
partnership
with
the
council
offices
to
be
more
significant,
so
that
we
are
all
on
the
same
page
that
you,
you
can
also
utilize
the
council
offices
as
an
as
a
ma,
a
way
to
obtain
information
about
the
status
of
our
immigrants
to
also
utilize
our
existing
groups,
so
that
you
can
gain
greater
insights
or
participation
in
your
feedback
loops.
E
Any
of
those
things.
I
just
think
that
there
is
a
piece
missing
here
and
lastly,
I'm
just
gonna
mention
really
quickly
about
the
latinx
and
latinx
is
is
a
term
that
is
not
my
biggest
issue
for
sure
it
is
an
issue
that
is
part
of
the
immigrant
group
that
I
belong
to,
which
is
the
mexican
immigrant
group.
It's
the
biggest,
the
largest
immigrant
group
here
in
san
jose,
and
so
I
would
like
that
to
be
honored
and
I
think
what
you're
hearing
from
councilmember
carrasco
and
councilmember
sparza
is.
E
This
is
a
way
to
honor
that
group.
This
is
certainly
not
my
biggest
issue.
One
of
the
items
that
I
work
on
is
sexual
assault
because
it
impacts
people
of
color
and
that's
children,
female
children
of
color,
which
is
something
also
an
area
that
I
think
office
of
immigrant
affairs
should
work
with
with
us
in
supporting
that
community.
E
So
when
there
is
when
there
is
an
issue
that
is
impacting
a
a
community,
a
in
an
immigrant
community
in
our
in
our
city-
and
I
think
that's
where
the
partnership
needs
to
happen-
and
I've
been
saying
this-
this
is
not
my
first
time
identifying
this
group.
This
is
the
third
year
in
a
row.
I've
been
shouting
from
the
rooftops
because
that's
part
of
creating
awareness
and
making
sure
that
we
have
the
support
that
we
need
for
those
children
and
most
of
those
children
are
children
of
immigrants.
E
I
I
could
keep
going
so
there's
nothing
simple
about
categories
and
labels.
It
elicits
a
lot
and
evokes
a
lot
of
different
feelings,
and
so
I
think
what
we
need
to
do
is
make
sure
that
we
honor
our
language
with
with
one
another
and
I'd
I'm
proud
of
my
gender
as
and
and
want
to
continue
to
be
referred
to
as
a
woman
and
as
the
latina,
and
I
absolutely
respect
other
folks
who
want
to
have
a
more
gender
or
a
non-binary
approach
and
identification
in
their
person.
E
But
what
we
need
to
do
right
now
is
untangle
ethnicity
from
gender
identity,
so
that
we
can
continue
to
honor
the
immigrant
group
that
is
here,
which
is
largely
latino
and
and
and
if
I
could
please
have
that
incorporated
into
the
motion
that
I
think
councilmember
carrasco
is
working
on.
Okay,
those
are
my
comments
and
I'm
gonna
move
over
to
councilmember
carrasco.
F
Thank
you,
so
I'm
going
to
try
and
make
a
make
a
motion.
F
I
was
writing
notes
down,
as
you
were
speaking
council
member
arenas,
chair
arenas
and-
and
I
think
some
of
the
suggestions
that
you
made
were
were
excellent
points
as
well
as
the
ones
that
council
member
esparza
made
regarding
the
anti-black
versus
anti-hater
anti-violence.
I
think
that
that's
a
a
great
point
as
well.
F
I'm
hoping
that
angel
or
sunma
or
anyone
else
were
writing
all
of
these
suggestions
down,
because
I
was
only
able
to
get
some
of
them
and,
if
not
we're
just
going
to
have
to
look
back
on
the
video
to
get
all
of
the
details.
I
do
want
to
echo
something
that
I
think
is
really
important,
because
you
know
I
I
want
to
be
very
clear
on
on
something
when,
when
I
address
the
issues
of
of
terminology
such
as
bipac
or
latinx,
I
I
want
to
be
clear
on
one
thing.
F
One
is
I:
I
want
to
make
sure
that,
in
our
attempt
to
be
inclusive,
we're
not
being
exclusive
that
that's
the
biggest
issue
for
me
when
I'm
talking
about
terminology
and
as
councilmember
adenos
mentioned
it's
about
honoring,
also
the
rest
of
the
community.
This
is
this
is
what
we're
all
hoping
to
do
your
this?
F
Is
your
agenda
as
well
as
our
agenda
is
to
be
respectful
and
be
inclusive,
and
so
we're
I'm
bringing
it
up
as
a
point
of
reference
that
that
not
everybody
identifies
with
the
terminology,
that's
becoming
the
the
the
you
know
the
I
don't
want
to
say
not
trendy,
but
the
acceptable,
the
acceptable
term
among
certain
groups,
and
sometimes
again,
I
want
to
just
reiterate
that
the
groups
that
are
not
vocal
or
they're
not
at
the
table
are
the
very
people
we're
trying
to
bring
in,
and
so
you
know,
I
hope
that
the
irony
doesn't
doesn't
doesn't
get
lost
here
that
we're
trying
to
welcome
in
and-
and
you
know,
all
I
could
think
of-
is-
is
being
at
the
airport,
with
a
big
welcoming
sign
to
the
latinx
immigrants
and
they
wouldn't
know
what
we
were
talking
about
necessarily
so
I
I
want
us
to
think
of
you
know
la
donna,
who's
coming
in
from
a
little
village
or
a
little
town
in
michoacan
who
barely
got
third
grade
education
literacy,
which
is
the
case
for
most
for
a
lot
of
our
immigrants
and
and
the
first
thing
they
say,
is
bienvenidos.
F
I
I
it
doesn't,
resonate
it's
not
a
welcoming
sign
to
see
but
anyway,
so
so
I
also
want
to
just
really
be
very
clear
that
as
we're
going
out
and
having
these
conversations
with
the
community,
you
know
language
means
everything
how
we
use
it
when
we
use
it
who
we
address
it
to,
and
I
just
saw,
I
just
saw
a
thread
on
facebook,
how
divisive
this
is
they're
challenging.
F
You
know
this
committee
regarding
the
challenge
of
the
word
lampnix,
as
if
as
if
that's
the
only
thing
that
we
concentrate
on
you
know,
we
focus
on
a
lot
of
other
things.
F
As
you
know,
especially
during
this
pandemic,
the
our
focus
was
keeping
people
alive
and
making
sure
that
they
didn't
slip
through
the
cracks
that
they
got
tested,
that
they
got
rental
assistance
that
they
were
part
of
that
they
understood
their
rights
as
as
the
rental
moratoriums
came
in
and
they
they
had
the
they
were
well
equipped
to
defend
themselves
against,
maybe
landlords
who
weren't
very
you
know
who
weren't
great
players
with
us,
but
now
that
we're
in
the
vaccination
mode.
F
This
has
come
up,
at
least
for
me
in
our
district
in
district,
five
has
become
more
of
an
issue
because
we
need
to
figure
out
how
do
we
pull
people
out
of
their
homes
to
save
their
lives?
So
it's
not
just
about
a
term,
and
it's
not
just
about
something
that
we
can
sweep
under
the
rug.
It's
about.
How
do
we
include
people?
How
do
we
call
them
out?
F
How
do
we
make
them
understand
that
we
are
talking
to
them
and
we're
not
excluding
them
from
the
very
thing
that
could
potentially
save
their
lives
or
could
potentially
keep
them
in
their
homes
or
could
potentially
keep
a
roof
over
their
children's
heads?
So
latinx
is
not
just
about
challenging
the
the
research
behind
it
and
and
making
sure
that
people
are
included.
F
It's
about
saving
lives
in
my
opinion,
so
I'm
gonna
try
and
make
a
motion
and
a
couple
of
things,
and
the
motion
is
to
accept
the
the
report,
but
also
to
include
the
items
that
council,
member,
esparza
and
councilmember
arenas
had
indicated,
and
this
is
again
around
anti-black
using
the
anti-black
versus
anti-hate
or
anti-violence
terminology.
F
It
is
taking
into
account
some
of
the
issues
that
council
members,
which
I
think
were
great
items
in
terms
of
how
we
hold
our
other
city
departments
accountable.
There
should
be
a
matrix
and
we
should
have
measurables
and
we
should
have
an
outcome
they'd,
be,
I
think,
that's
going
to
be
a
reflection
on
the
kind
of
work
that
we're
all
doing
in
our
offices
and
as
a
city,
and
so
again
I
hope
that
that
you
were
taking
down
all
these
notes.
F
F
Until
then,
I
would
like
to
see
that
that
terminology
is
kept
out
of
our
books
for
now,
I'm
not
saying
that
forever,
but
for
now
so
that
we
can
go
ahead
and
be
inclusive
of
the
entire
community.
So
I
know
that
that's
going
to
be
a
big
lift
because
we're
all
trying
to
figure
out
how
do
we
include
everybody
and
how
do
we
make
sure
that
we
don't
disrespect
the
groups
that
we're
trying
to
serve?
F
There
are
some
very
specific
issues
that
afflict
our
communities
of
color
and-
and
I
I've
said
it
before-
if
we're
not
ready
to
to
truly
take
the
bull
by
the
horn
and
do
something
very
different
in
communities
like
poco
poco
way
or
foxdale,
then
we
need
to
be
ready
to
sign
over
disclosures
to
that
single
mom
who's
coming
into
a
gang
infested
community
and
letting
her
know
these
are
the
chances
of
your
children
surviving
this
community.
F
These
are
the
risks
in
terms
of
the
furthering
their
education,
and
these
are
the
opportunities
that
your
kids
will
have
to
join
a
gang.
We
either
have
to
embrace
that
and
say
yes,
we
we
will
take
responsibility
for
that
or
we
have
to
do
something
entirely
different.
So
I
just
bring
that
up
in
terms
of
reinforcing
what
council
members
was
saying:
sexual
assault,
I'll
add
human
trafficking.
Many
of
our
folks
who
are
going
to
be
coming
in
from
from
other
countries
are
victims
of
human
and
sex
trafficking.
F
That's
why
they're
here,
they're
looking
for
refuge
and
and
to
see
that,
in
the
plan
I
think
is
imperative.
I
think
that
is
a
critical
point
that
needs
to
be
addressed
because
welcoming
san
jose-
it's
not
just
about
you
know
it's
all
the
great
work
that
you're
doing
right
now,
suma
with
all
our
partners,
but
it's
also
figuring
out.
How
do
we
get
our
folks,
the
resources
that
they
need
and
how
do
we
advocate
or
get
on
to
these
panels?
F
You
know
they're
being
threatened
by
the
very
perpetrator
that
is
inflicting
these
kinds
of
horrendous
acts
upon
them
and
their
children
they're
now
being
held
hostage
in
our
own
city
in
their
own
homes,
because
they're,
afraid
of
being
homeless,
of
not
having
ways
to
feed
their
children
or
being
deported
and
so
being
able
to
at
least
have
resources
that
can
indicate
to
these
women
where
they
can
go
and
also
our
lgbtq
community
who's
coming
in
from
other
countries
who
know
that
if
they
stay
in
their
country,
it's
a
life
or
death
situation
based
on
gender
identity
and
sexual
orientation.
F
So
so
I
know
that's
a
heavy
heavy
memo
I
mean
motion,
but
in
essence
it's
accepting
the
report,
I'm
going
to
try
and
summarize
it
accepting
the
report
adding
those
pieces
of
accountability
that
council
member
arenas
included
holding
back
on
the
terminology
until
we
have
further
research,
changing
anti-black
to
anti-hate
and
coming
back
with
with
your
with
your
feedback.
After
doing
some,
some
serious
community
engagement
regarding
the
terminology
and
the
inclusivity
or
exclusivity
of
of
these
terms.
So
a
second
thank
you.
E
Wonderful,
yes,
when
would
you
call
our
vote.
B
L
E
Yes,
and
so
I'm
going
to
ask
for
permission
to
move
an
item
around,
and
this
has
to
do
with
the
youth
commission
report
and
one
of
the
commissioners
just
connected
with
me
asking
if
we
could
hear
her
item
first
as
they
are
gonna
get
ready
to
go
to
school.
So
I
apologize
to
the
other
presenters.
E
I
think
I
would
love
to
hear
from
our
youth
commissioners
and
I
don't
want
to
skip
this
item
so
I'm
going
to
move
that
up
and
that
is
the
youth
commission
report
from
parks
and
rec
and
neighborhood
services,
as
well
as
our
youth
commissioners,
and
if
you
want
to
be
as
succinct
as
you
as
you
can
for
this
presentation,
I
completely
get
it.
I
know
that
you
need
to
get
to
class.
Welcome.
L
Awesome,
thank
you
so
much
for
moving
this
item.
It
was
yeah.
Thank
you
just
thank
you.
So
much
for
your
consideration.
Do
you
guys
have
the
slides
to
share,
or
should
I
share
them.
B
E
And
I
apologize
gina
and
jasmine,
I
didn't
give
either
one
of
you
a
heads
up
on
this.
I
just
saw
the
message
coming
through
and
so
I
needed
to
respond.
E
While
we
wait
for
that
presentation,
I
just
want
to
thank
our
youth
commission
for
the
work
that
they've
done
so
far
in
this
year
of
service
they've
had
a
wonderful
symposium,
which
I
was
completely
impressed
with,
seeing
that
we
were
sheltered
in
place
and
they
managed
to
bring
in
a
lot
of
folks
and
just
really
good
content.
Okay,
here
we
go.
L
Awesome.
Okay,
so
I
think
these
slides
aren't
updated
I'll
just
share
my
screen.
If
that's
fine
with
you
guys,
sorry
for
the
delay,
one.
L
L
L
You
know
we
had
to
get
to
school
and
it's
been
a
while,
but
your
guys's
discussions
are
very
interesting,
very
intriguing,
but
again,
thank
you
guys,
so
welcome
to
our
annual
neighborhood
services
and
education
or
nfc
report
that
we
give
to
the
city
board
every
year
and
again
today's
date
is
may
20
2021,
and
this
report
will
be
presented
by
the
district
one
youth
commissioner,
real
district
7,
commissioner,
richard
district,
a
commissioner
paula
and
the
district
9
commissioner
avi,
which
is
me.
B
So,
thank
you
avi.
This
year's
our
vision
was
uniting
as
in
as
an
informed,
connected
and
engaged
body
of
state
as
jose
youth.
Our
mission
is
to
equitably
connect,
serve,
empower
and
support.
San
jose
youth
of
all
backgrounds
and
our
core
values
are
leadership.
Inclusion,
awareness,
empowerment,.
A
We
start
off
every
year
of
the
commission,
with
our
annual
retreat
typically
occurs
in
the
early
month
of
august,
and,
as
you
can
see
right
here,
we
typically
just
plan
out
what
we're
going
to
do
throughout
the
year
where
our
goals
are,
and
then
we
do
have
a
typical
summer
internship
program
and
of
course,
this
year
the
retreat
was
held
virtually
and
we
were
able
to
hear
presentations
from
the
interns
virtually
and
just
really
gave
guidance
as
to
what
we
really
want
to
accomplish
together
and
I'll.
L
So
during
this
commission's
retreat,
which
was
held
virtually,
we
were
able
to
have
smart
youth
interns
present
us
with
youth
issues.
After
cheat
to
help
us
assist
our
commission
and
identifying
and
sort
of
establishing
a
set
of
key
strategic
goals
to
help
guide
the
commission's
greater
vision
and
mission
throughout
the
year
and
the
following
slide,
which
will
be
moved
on
by
commissioner
snyder.
A
L
Another
thing
that
we
were
able
to
have
we're
hosting
the
district
yak,
which
also
stands
for
the
youth
advisory
council
meetings
hosting
a
yak
bay
area,
wide
social,
I'm
hosting
a
roundtable
discussion
with
interim
police
chief
dave
noff,
as
well
as
having
a
county-wide
youth
summit
in
collaboration
with
the
bill,
wiston
center
and
now
I'll
pass
it
on
to
commissioner
singh.
L
So
our
third
strategic
goal
this
year
was
to
provide
equitable
access
and
support
to
marginalized
youth
communities
and
in
order
to
fulfill
this
goal,
we
are
writing
policies
in
collaboration
with
the
center's
digital
inclusion,
to
address
the
digital
divide.
These
policies
are
a
little
bigger,
so
they're
taking
much
longer
than
we
anticipated.
L
So
we
we're
not
able
to
present
or
like
send
in
for
review
any
policies
this
year,
but
they
will
be
sent
to
next
year
and
we
hold
their
district
for
yak
or
youth
advisory
council
hosted
a
food
drive
with
in
collaboration
with
martin's
kitchen,
and
I
will
pass
this
on
to
commissioner
hold
on.
A
Yes,
thank
you.
Thanks
nursing,
strategical
number,
four,
smart
resources
and
opportunities
available
to
you.
So
we
complete
a
lot
of
outreach
in
terms
of
updating
our
youth
bill
of
rights,
which
was
recently
discussed
in
city
council
and
basically
this
ensures
a
bunch
of
opportunities
and
resources
by
the
city
to
ensure
that
students
and
this
youth
in
general
will
have
a
lot
of
pathways
and
accessibility.
A
And
then
we
also
publish
several
editions
of
the
youth
commission
newsletter,
which
can
be
found
on
our
youth
commission
website
on
the
san
jose
like
as
a
part
of
the
san
jose
city
website.
We
also
contributed
to
the
recycled
right
ad
campaign
and
also
invited
you
to
attend
roundtable
discussions
with
the
acting
police,
chief
city
manager
and
mayor
and
now
I'll
pass
it
on
to
commissioner
hope.
L
Our
fifth
and
final
strategic
goal
was
to
create
and
propose
a
policy
recommendations
to
the
city
council
to
help
serve
and
benefit
the
youth
and
their
interests
and
a
way
that
we
accomplished.
This
was
sending
multiple
letters
to
the
city,
council
and
other
city
officials
regarding
subjects
ranging
from
the
san
jose
police
department,
reform
to
the
new
office
of
racial
equity.
L
Under
they,
another
thing
that
we
were
able
to
accomplish
was
being
able
to
send
positive
recognitions
and
we
sent
in
a
lot
of
like
recommendations
ranging
from
green
architecture,
biodegradable
utensils
to
community
gardens
the
care
and
acts
to
city
council.
L
Another
thing
that
we
were
able
to
accomplish
was
updating
the
san
jose
youth
bill
of
rights,
as
well
as
submitting
our
annual
youth
commission
budget
recommendation
and
now
I'll
pass
it
back
to
commissioner
escobar.
A
A
So
we'll
continue
to
have
youth
being
civically
engaged
specifically
in
local
government
by
formulating
recommendations,
letters
that
address
pressing
issues
within
our
community.
A
We
also
continue
to
create
events
that
foster
these
ideas
and
also
partner
with
local
organizations,
including
community
groups,
city
departments,
non-profits
neighborhood
associations,
and
we
will
work
on
additional
initiatives
to
solve
on
issues
that
are
really
revealed
during
the
pandemic,
such
as
the
digital
divide
and,
finally,
we'll
be
hosting
our
end
of
the
year
event
in
month
of
june,
and
this
will
just
be
a
celebration
to
really
recognize
the
accomplishments
of
both
our
youth
commissioners
and
our
youth
advisory
council
members
and
now,
finally,
I'll
pass
it
back
to
krishna
singh.
L
Awesome,
thank
you,
commission
escobar,
so
yeah.
That
was
our
report.
Thank
you
guys
for
listening
and
thank
you
guys
again
for
the
accommodation.
Does
anyone
have
any
questions.
E
K
I
just
hope
everybody
on
the
city
council
and
who
makes
decisions,
makes
good
decisions
for
everybody,
not
just
friends,
groups
certain
people,
it
seems
as
if
regular
taxpayers
are
never
thanked,
which
I've
never
ever
ever
ever
heard
city
council,
san,
jose,
pd
san
jose
fire
department,
no
one
ever
thanks
the
taxpayer
for
all
these
wonderful
things
that
are
supposed
to
be
paid
for
by
you
know
for
for
the
for
the
city
employees
to
the
residents,
how
is
it
being
paid
through
taxes
so
once
in
a
while
I'd
like
to
hear
a
thank
you
even
if
it,
even
if
it's,
if
it's
not
genuine,
because
you
guys
need
to
hear
that
what
taxpayers
pay
on
our
utility
bills
phone
bill,
property,
tax
fees,
fines,
all
these
things,
money
doesn't
grow
on
trees.
K
K
Where
does
all
the
money
go?
That's
the
question
I
have
for
everybody
today:
where
does
all
the
money
go,
and
you
know
what
no
one's
been
able
to
show
me
in
writing
where
it
all
goes
like
where
the
fines
go
where
the
taxes
go,
I
just
hear
general
funds.
It
goes
to
the
general
fund.
Well,
you
know
what
that
answer
is
not
good
enough
for
me
anymore.
You
guys
need
to
sharpen
your
pencil
and
start
figuring
out
where
you
can
save
money.
First,.
D
All
right,
thank
you
very
much
to
try
to
direct
my
words
towards
youth,
commission
and
youth
commission
ideas.
I
have
the
same
problem
that
the
previous
speaker
does
that
I
end
up
being
called
too
abstract.
I
hope
I
can
direct
my
questions
to
youth
commission
ideas.
D
You
know
I've
been
working
on
open
public
policy
with
surveillance
and
technology
for
a
long
time
now,
and
I've
heard
a
lot
of
promotion
by
the
youth
commission
of
the
good
of
digital
abridging,
the
digital
divide
and
digital
inclusion
ideas
and
its
importance,
which
I
do
not
doubt
at
all,
and
I
want
to
be
a
part
of
that
process,
but
I
just
wanted
to
remind
themselves
of
the
importance
of
open
public
policies
with
technology
and
what
it
really
helps
with
and
what
it
can
really
help
develop
in
the
future
of
our
local
community
as
a
democracy
as
ideas
of
sustainability
and
as
ideas
of
peace,
and
it's
really
interesting
work
that
I
think
it's
it's
really
important
to
learn
how
to
creatively,
link
and
bridge
you
know
open
public
policy
with
the
future
of
digital
divide
issues
and
technology
and
foreign
5g
and
and
and
vision.
D
0
and
all
the
neighborhood
safety
questions
to
creatively
learn
how
to
incorporate
open
public
policy
ideas,
which
is
kind
of
the
runt
at
this
time.
That
takes
effort-
and
I
think
the
youth
commission
to
be
young,
there's
more
creative
ideas
to
create
openness
to
to
bridge
and
link
these
ideas
together.
E
Thank
you,
mr
beakman.
I'm
going
back
to
our
committee
and
seeing
that
there
are
no
hands,
I'm
going
to
thank
you
for
for
your
work
and
your
presentation
as
well
under
strategic
goal.
Number
four.
I
want
to
thank
you
once
again
and
personally
for
your
update
to
the
san
jose
bill
of
rights,
youth
bill
of
rights.
This
is
something
that
I
know
that
will
help
our
city
align
our
strategies
and
our
goals
with
the
outcomes
that
we
want
to
see
in
our
youth
and
keep
all
of
us
very
much
accountable.
E
I
want
to
also
give
you
an
update
that
I
have
asked
for
an
audit
to
see
how
we
are
faring
on
that
as
a
city,
and
I
will
continue
to
need
your
support
in
this
area
in
your
championing
different
areas
and
policies
is
just
absolutely
important.
E
I'd
love
to
invite
you
to
our
council
meetings,
especially
our
budget
meetings,
and
hear
your
perspective
and
hear
your
priorities.
I
know
that
you've
submitted
your
own
priority
areas
for
for
the
budget
and
and
I've
read
them,
and-
and
I
want
to
thank
you
for
for
submitting
that,
but
your
voices
and
your
faces
speak
to
us
very
differently
than
your
documents.
I
mean
I
love
your
documents.
E
I
love
good
memo,
like
you
know,
hats
off
to
a
good
memo
always,
but
I
want
to
hear
your
voices
as
well,
so
I'd
love
to
ask
you
to
come
into
one
of
our
council
meetings
or
budget
meetings,
and
we
can
talk
about
this
offline
because
typically
you're
the
voice,
that's
missing
at
our
table.
It
would
be
wonderful
to
one
day
have
you,
as
an
honorary
council
members
that
you
can
vote
on
all
of
our
issues
and
I'd
love
to
see
how
you
would
vote
on
those.
E
B
H
L
Who
put
on
some
great
events
in
the
past
year
and
I
know
they're
doing
great
work
and
the
committee's
in
all
the
other
districts
so
I'll
move
to
accept
the
report.
E
And
I'll
go
ahead
and
second
that
so
lastly,
I
just
want
to
mention
I
I
know
that
the
e,
the
the
oh
gosh,
the
school
board
for
east
side,
union
high
school
district
has
kind
of
an
honorary
advisory
board
youth
board
and
their
members.
One
of
their
members
then
come
attends
the
ongoing
school
board
meetings
and
actually
votes
right.
E
I
don't
know
how
legal
that
vote
is,
but
it's
integrated
into
the
voice
in
in
and
taken
into
account,
and
so
I
would
love
for
us
to
have
a
version
of
that
for
our
youth
commissioners
and
so
that
you,
actually
you
know,
vote
and
and
your
votes,
even
if
they
were
informal
and
honorary,
I
think,
would
just
lend
a
great
weight,
a
representation
of
our
youth
in
san
jose,
and
so
hopefully
we
can
explore
something
like
that
on
an
ongoing
basis.
E
We
sometimes
just
want
to
hear
the
youth
when
we
want
to
hear
the
youth,
and
I
think
your
voices
need
to
be
heard
all
the
time
irregardless
of
the
issue,
so
I
want
to.
Lastly,
just
thank
all
of
you
for
your
work.
Your
leadership,
I'm
always
really
impressed
with
the
way
you
carry
yourselves.
The
way
you
carry
out
your
work
is
absolutely
professional,
and
so
I'm
really
excited
to
see
what
you
will
complete
in
your
near
future.
E
J
L
B
F
G
J
E
So
I'm
gonna
go
return
back
to
our
regularly
scheduled
and
move
into
public
life,
annual
report
and
ed.
I
know
you
can
do
this.
I
know
that
you
can
jam
out
this
presentation.
E
I
we
we
took
a
little
longer
than
another
item,
so
I
apologize,
I'm
gonna
ask
everybody
to
if
we
could
expedite
some
of
the
the
presentations
without
losing
any
content.
Can
we
do
this
awesome?
We
can.
G
We're
going
to
talk
fast
and
we're
going
to
just
wow
you
with
great
images
about
the
memo
for
all
the
you
know,
details
because
we
know
we
you've
got
a
lot
of
other
things
on
the
agenda
to
get
to
so
a
good
morning.
Committee
members,
I'm
carrie
adams,
hackner,
I'm
the
director
of
the
office
of
cultural
affairs.
It's
a
pleasure
to
see
you
and
I'm
here
with
andrea
flores,
shelton
who's,
a
deputy
director
in
prns
and
ed
solis,
the
superintendent
in
prns,
so
we're
here
to
give
you
an
annual
report
on
public
life.
G
So
this
is
one
of
the
city
managers,
enterprise
priorities,
it's
around
safe,
vibrant
and
inclusive
neighborhoods
and
public
life,
and
this
to
this
is
really
about
place,
making
and
engaging
residents
as
stakeholders
and
instilling
a
sense
of
pride
and
ownership
in
public
spaces
next
slide.
G
So
we're
going
to
just
give
you
some
high
level
overview
about
what
we've
been
doing
recently.
Obviously,
covid19
has
you
know
added
a
twist
to
our
public
life
efforts
because
of
the
shelter
in
place
orders
over
the
past.
G
You
know
essentially
14
months,
so
our
focus
over
the
over
the
course
of
the
pandemic
has
really
been
about
focusing
on
public
safety
and,
however,
we
have
done
some
programming
that
I'm
not
going
to
point
to,
but
I
just
want
to
mention
that
we,
because
we're
moving
into
a
less
restrictive
tier,
we
are
so
excited
to
be
reopening
and
we've
got
a
lot
of
great
things
planned.
G
I
also
want
to
just
acknowledge
that
this
is
a
an
interdepartmental
priority,
so
they're
in
addition
to
prns
and
our
department,
there
are
a
library,
housing,
pvc
e,
pd,
fire
transportation
are
all
departments
that
support
this
enterprise
priority
that
is
actually
led
by
deputy
city
manager
angel
rios
next
slide.
Please,
oh
excuse
me
go
back.
I
just
want
to
mention
that
was
the
holding
the
moment
slide,
that
was
at
the
airport,
and
we
had
us
asked
and
commissioned
local
artists
to
submit
work.
G
G
We've
done
some
really
excellent
public
art
projects
actually
13
over
the
past
year
and
a
half,
so
these
are
just
some
selected
highlights.
This
is
at
the
convention
center
next
slide.
G
This
is
at
the
third
street
parking
garage
on
santa
clara
street,
beautiful
beautiful
thing.
Oh,
this
is
our
most
recent.
This
is
actually
part
of
the
right
the
blight.
This
is
just
one
section
of
an
underpass.
It's
by
local
artist,
jessie
hernandez,
beautiful.
G
And
then,
as
you
all
took
action
to
make
april
arts
and
arts
culture
and
creativity
month,
we
had
a
virtual
festival
in
april,
and
we
did
this
really
all
virtually
and
that
was
really
to
help
engage
people
in
their
own
personal,
creative
expression.
G
These
are
the
different
things
that
people
participated
in.
There
was
a
challenge
every
day
with
different
themes
like
good
vibes
or
great
outdoors
or
discovery.
G
We
got
a
mural
monday,
for
example,
next
slide,
and
then
last
year
2020
we
had
a
virtual
make
music
day
and,
as
you
know,
we
do
make
music
day
every
year
on
june
21st
and
it's
a
virtual
celebration
of
music
and
it
is
a
city-wide
celebration
where
anybody
can
participate
in
anywhere
can
be
a
venue.
So
we
encourage
you
to
get
the
word
out
for
different
people
in
your
districts
to
participate.
G
One
year
we
had
a
lot
of
action
at
eastridge,
there's
just
so,
and
people
you
know
made
music
in
the
mall.
It
was
really
great.
So
this
is
going
to
be
a
hybrid
model.
Much
of
it
is
going
to
be
online,
but
there's
some
really
great
things
planned
like
maybe
opera
san
jose
will
be
doing
a
performance
at
the
winchester
mystery
house.
So
there's
going
to
be
some
great
drama
and
fun
on
make
music
days.
G
I
hope
you
can
participate
next
slide
and
then
we
are
bringing
back
city
dance
this
year
in
2021,
it's
going
to
be
in
partnership
with
the
san
jose
museum
of
art
and
we're
gonna
hold
it
on
first
fridays:
that's
when
they
have
they're
open
late,
so
it's
gonna
be
first
fridays
in
august
september
in
october,
and
all
the
genres
will
be
latin
genres
because,
frankly,
that's
when
all
the
awesome
dancers
come
out,
so
it's
going
to
be
a
lot
of
fun
and
a
great
partnership
and
next
slide.
G
Please
and
then,
of
course,
we're
really
excited
to
share
that
we
are
bringing
sonic
runway
back.
This
fall,
it
looks
like
the
installation
is
going
to
come
in
around
october,
and
so
it's
coming
right
at
the
best
time
where
we
can,
you
know,
start
having
gatherings
and
people
can
get
outside
and
enjoy
this
really
spectacular
work
of
art
that
realizes
the
speed
of
sound.
So
with
that,
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
ed
solis.
Thank
you.
M
Thanks
carrie,
it's
good
to
see
everybody
happy
thursday,
councilman
rodriguez
said
I'm
just
going
to
fly
through
this
and
take
questions
at
the
end,
and
so,
in
addition
to
all
the
great
things,
our
public
art
ways
we're
bringing
back
our
aquatic
summer
program,
which
is
amazingly
getting
ramping
up
ready
to
go.
Our
team
has
done
a
great
job.
I
want
to
give
a
shout
out
to
my
small
mighty
team
led
by
justin
iramora
and
are
good
partners
over
in
parks.
M
The
pool
maintenance
staff
has
done
a
great
job,
getting
our
pools
into
shape,
doing
some
last
minute
fixes
and
getting
those
pools
ready.
So,
as
you
see,
piranes
will
be
operating
four
pools
and
two
will
be
run
by
the
answer,
which
is
one
of
our
vendors.
M
We
did
start
our
registration
for
summerslam
on
the
eighth
we're
at
about
50
capacity,
and
we
are
currently
relaunching
our
efforts
to
hire
more
lifeguards
in
preparation
for
direct
swim,
part
of
that
and
we're
looking
as
a
target
date
we're
looking
towards
a
july,
the
8th
to
hopefully
get
our
rec
swim
program
going
next
slide.
Please,
of
course
viva
guys
is
coming
back.
We
have
a
save
the
date
of
september,
the
19th.
M
We
are
going
to
be
opening
six
miles
of
city
streets
to
everything,
but
vehicles
so
we're
looking
forward
to
seeing
everybody
come
out.
You
know
every
year
we
we
get
about
a
hundred
thousand
folks
that
attend
and
so
taking
into
account
public
health
guidelines.
M
We
will
be
adjusting
the
program
as
such,
but
hopefully
by
september
we
will
be
in
a
much
better
position
and
we
can
enjoy
our
city
streets,
our
parks
and
our
communities
by
foot
biking
running
any
way
you
folks
see
fit
to
enjoy
the
city
of
san
jose,
so
we're
really
excited
about
viva.
Gaia
is
coming
back
next
slide,
please.
M
In
addition,
our
viva
parks
neighborhood
series.
I
want
to
thank
all
the
council
member
officers
who
worked
with
us.
We
have
it's
not
easy.
Coordinating,
56
activations
throughout
the
city,
with
more
possibly
in
the
future,
we'll
be
at
20
different
parks
throughout
the
city
and
all
10
community
are
all
10
districts.
For
the
first
time
in
the
program,
history
will
be
activated.
You
will
be
seeing
a
hard
copy.
M
Final
final
final
schedule
release
very
soon
and,
of
course,
with
all
of
our
place,
making
efforts,
we
will
be
adjusting
to
city
county
health
standards
and
state
health
centers
to
make
sure
that
we
keep
our
activations
not
only
fun
but
safe
and
healthy
for
everyone.
Next
up
next
slide.
M
In
addition,
we're
bringing
down
our
viva
park's
downtown
activation,
which
is
primarily
held
at
plaza
de
cesar
chavez
and
st
james
park,
we're
bringing
back
the
very
popular
wine
and
painting
series

can
see
there
in
the
photo
and,
of
course,
all
of
our
different
offerings,
including
our
yoga,
at
sunrise
and
in
the
park.
So
with
that,
I
will
move
on
to
the
q
a
period
of
our
presentation.
G
E
Thank
you.
I
was
playing
music
in
my
head
that
I
typically
hear
at
viva
guys
when
I
was
listening
and
make
music
day.
We
already
submitted
our
memo,
so
I'm
really
excited
looking
forward
to
that.
We
have
just
one
community
member,
mr
beekman.

I

I
figured
I

talk

it.
Talk
on

during
public
comment
time.
Thank
you
for
it.
I'm
interested
you

bicycle

walking

be
an
interesting
future
for
ourselves
how
to
develop
events
for
the
city.
D
So
thank
you
for
your
your,
like
your
artisan,
walk
and
be
a
kaye
at
the
end
of
viva
coyotes
at
the
in
in
the
fall,
and
you
know
I
guess
a
reminder
that
you
know
where
we
got
ideas
like
viva
kaye
from
guadalajara,
mexico.
D
Refer
to
them,
can
someone
mute
themselves?
Please.
Someone
needs
to
mute
themselves,
guadalajara,
mexico.
You
know
they
had
a
really.
They
have
a
really
wide
marketplace.
You
know
like
a
four-day
marketplace
on
their
weekends.
D
You
know,
and
the
whole
city
would
would
close
down
its
streets
to
traffic
and
it
would
just
be
a
big
marketplace
fiesta
and
it
was
really
good
stuff,
and
I
wondered
what
they're
going
to
be
doing
now
coming
out
of
the
pandemic
and
to
refer
to
guadalajara
and
mexico,
for
ideas
can
be
important
for
ourselves,
and
maybe
we
can
develop
a
new
community
spirit
out
of
that
and
good
luck
on
how
to,
and
so
I
thought
I
would
just
bring
that
up
here
now
and
thanks
for
this
item,
thanks
for
the
ideas
of
fall,
I'm
hoping
fall
can
be
a
good
time
for
all
of
us
as
well.
D
So
thanks
for
the
reminders-
and
thanks
for
this.
E
Item
wonderful,
thank
you
so
much,
mr
beekman,
and
seeing
that
there
is
no
other
and
I'm
gonna
go
to
my
colleagues.
Councilmember
sparza.
C
Thank
you,
and
I
know
that
was
a
lot
of
information
covered
and
I
can't
wait
till
we
can
get
going
on
our
murals
and
I'd
like
to
thank
our
public
art
team
for
doing
some
of
this
work.
During
the
pandemic.
We
were
able
to
have
some
celebrations
and
and
see
some
of
that
important
work
continue
during
the
pandemic,
which
was
a
real
spirit
lifter
for
our
communities.
C
I
I
have
some
questions
so
in
terms
of
the
aquatics
summer
program,
I'm
I've-
I
I
think
I've
said
this
in
meetings,
I'm
not
sure
if
I've
said
this
publicly,
but
I
think
that
this
is
such
an
important
program
and
this
summer
is
so
critical
because
there
are
so
many.
C
I
think
people
are
tired
of
being
cooped
up
and
also
there
are.
You
know.
I
have
said
that
violence
has
been
escalating
and
and
especially
in
certain
parts
of
the
city
and
having
positive
family
friendly
things
to
do.
I
think,
is
really
critical
to
get
us
through
this,
and
I
think
aquatics.
Our
aquatics
program
is
amazing
and
I
think
really
important.
C
C
I
don't
know
what
kind
of
outreach
they
can
do
with
their
kids
at
this
point.
How
else
could
we
support
those
activities?
I
know
we're
all
competing
to
hire
lifeguards.
M
Yes,
that's
a
great
question.
I
know
andrea's
going
to
jump
in
there
as
well,
but
I
would
just
say
again,
as
we
one
of
the
things
that
we
have
talked
about
internally
council
member
is
we're
just
in
you
know
unknown
territory
coming
out
of
a
pandemic.
It
was
really
a
long
discussion
for
months
about
where
we're
going
to
be
how
the
timing
of
this
pandemic
is
going
to
roll
out.
M
Are
we
even
going
to
have
aquatics
this
summer,
and
so
when
we
were
in
a
position
to
kind
of
make
that
call
we
were
behind
the
eight
ball
already
again,
not
on
anyone's
fault.
We
were
just
dealing
with
the
pandemic,
and
so
we
rushed
like,
I
said
our
team
pivoted
quickly
from
food
distribution
and
necessities
to
taking
on
aquatics,
and
so,
like
I
said,
the
the
job
posting
is
back
out
there.
M
Our
team
are
beating
the
streets,
we're
meeting
with
work
to
future
today
to
see
if
we
can
recruit
some
some
young
folks
from
there.
But
in
addition
to
what
you're
doing
already,
I
think
I
think
your
support
is
amazing
and
you're
right.
Aquatics
are
part
of
everyone's
summer
experience.
No
matter
where
you
come
from
so
I'll
turn
over
to
andre.
I
Thank
you,
andrea
flores,
shelton
with
prness.
I
just
wanted
to
add
that
if,
if
your
offices
are
contacted
about
the
hiring
process,
please
reach
out
to
us,
we
know
for
young
people,
potentially
our
hiring
website
and
application
process
can
be
challenging.
We
are
here
to
move
that
along
and
streamline
that
as
a
mother,
you
know
trying
to
get
a
16
year
old,
a
job
this
summer.
I
You
know
it
takes
some
hand-holding,
so
we
are
here
to
help
you
and
help
folks,
and
I
just
want
to
double
back
on
what
ed
said
in
our
first
hiring
recruitment
earlier
this
year,
schools
weren't
open
right.
So
we
couldn't
do
our
traditional.
You
know,
walk
the
pool,
deck
and
recruit
outreach
activities
right.
So
that's
why
we're
in
an
unusual
place
of
reopening
lifeguard
hiring
now
and
doing
that
recruitment?
And
yes,
it
is
aggressive
and
it's
direct,
so
it
closes
next
wednesday.
I
So
again,
just
another
push
to
get
folks
to
to
apply
and
let
us
know
if
folks
need
some
hand
holding
in
that
process.
I
C
Okay,
thank
you.
That's
super
helpful
because
I
I
just
I
just
think
this
is
super
important
to
be
able
to
offer
our
families
this
summer.
Thank
you
for
that,
and
thank
you
to
clarissa.
I
have
one
more
question
on
the
eva
park.
You
know
this
pandemic
has
touched
everyone.
You
know
no
matter
where
you
live,
no
matter
what
your
income
is
or
your
background
or
your
living
situation,
everybody's
felt
it
one
way
or
another.
The
the
biggest
impacts
have
have
not,
you
know
been
equal.
C
You
know
there
are
some
some
neighborhoods
all
over
the
city
that
have
been
dealing
with
a
lot
related
to
the
pandemic
and
seen
increases
in
violence
in
neighborhoods
increases
in
gang
recruitment,
and
I
think,
and
and
it's
and
people
are
just
restless
and
fed
up
and
tempers
are
short
because
people
want
to
get
out,
and
I
think
we
all
want
this
to
be
over.
C
So
I
do
think
that
the
this
summer
is
really
important
and
the
park
activations,
the
public
life
you
know
offering
offering
this
activity
in
every
council
district
is
really
critical.
Thank
you
for
doing
that.
I
know
it's
a
lift.
C
My
office
is
is
doing
a
lot
of
community
events
in
addition
to
vivo
parks,
and
so
because
of
that,
because
it's
just
the
need-
and
it's
been
really
hard,
and
so
I
wanted
to
ask
like
how
so
we
have
the
activation
plan,
and
you
mentioned
we're
planning
more.
How
are
we,
what
are
the?
How
are
we
making
those
decisions?
C
Are
we
focusing
on
you
know
those
neighborhoods
that
have
had
increases
in
violence?
Are
we
making
those
connections
so
that
we
can
offer
kids
and
families
those
positive
activities
and
activate
our
parks
in
doing
so?
How
are
we
doing
that.
M
That's
a
great
question
councilmember,
and
so
you
may
recall
when
we
first
began
the
viva
park
series,
it
was
really
to
benefit
those
communities
and
those
those
parks
that
were
underutilized,
some
that
were
blighted,
some
that
were
gang
infested
and
police.
Were
you
know
high
in
need,
and
so
you
know
some
of
our
are
more
affluent
neighborhoods
with
better
part.
You
know
people
are
gonna,
go
to
those,
so
we
really
wanted
to
to
come
into
these.
M
These
parks
that
needed
some
help
and
activate
traditionally
in
three
five
and
seven
council
districts,
three
five
and
seven,
but
as
we
know
there
are
needs
in
the
hopkins
via
monte
area,
all
the
way
down
to
south
san
jose.
So
what
we
do
is
we
coordinate
with
the
council
offices?
We
really
they
have
the
best
pulse
of
the
community.
We
ask
what
are
some
of
the
parks
that
we
really?
M
You
know
you'd
really
like
to
see
activated
and
every
year
they
they
kind
of
change
right,
so
sometimes
parks
get
an
uplift
or
they
get
a
new
field
and
and
then
we
kind
of
change
you
know
which
path
we're
going
in
which
neighborhoods
this
year
we're
trying
to
align
a
little
bit
closer
with
the
project,
hope,
communities
and
things
of
that
nature.
M
And
so
we
really
listen
to
the
council
members
and
then
once
we
have
the
schedule
line,
we
do
community
input
sessions
in
all
of
the
different
communities
and
parts
that
we're
gonna
activate.
We
talk
to
them
about
what
they
can
expect,
we
hand
out
schedules
and
we
get
feedback
from
them
to
let
us
know
if
there
are
any
hot
spots
or
any
any
red
flag
warnings,
and
so
with
the
small
team.
I
think
we
do
a
really
good
job
of
outreach
again
beginning
with
the
council,
members
and
then
vetting
through.
M
M
We
have
some
great
skate
nights
out
there,
so
we
do
our
best
to
again
identify
the
hot
spots,
the
parks
that
are
in
need-
and
those
are
the
ones
that
we
activate.
C
Yeah
and
so
so-
and
I'm
asking
this
because
I
I
did
a
bd
last
year,
and
so
that's
why
my
parks
are
being
activated
but
I'll,
give
you
some
examples.
There
isn't
a
park
in
my
one
project,
hope
area
but
sort
of
next
to
that
in
an
emerging
hot
spot
area
where
we
have
had
shootings,
mclaughlin
park
hasn't
been
activated.
C
In
fact,
my
office
has
had
this
we've
done,
zumbo
we've
done
baseball
clinics,
and
so
the
need
is
is
greater
than
just
what's
in
the
bds,
and
so
so
that's
why
I'm
asking
about
how
we're
making
those
connections-
and
I
know
I'm
not
the
only
part
of
the
city
that
has
seen
these
sort
of
increases
in
violence
or
or
you
know,
they're
communities
like
rock
springs,
where
we
are
going
to
do
some.
C
Some
we're
gonna
do
to
activation
they're
a
little
bit
more
geographically,
isolated
and
and
need
a
lot
need
a
lot
of
support,
and-
and
so
I
I
know-
I'm
not
the
only
part
of
the
city
that
is
dealing
with
this,
and
so
I
just
wanted
to
make
that
connection.
We
have
a
lot
of
neighborhoods
that
are
feeling
a
lot
of
pain
right
now
and
need
me
this
right.
C
We
believe
in
viva
parks
we
believe
in
we
believe
in
it
and
believe
in
that
connection,
and
so
I
think
we
need
to
start
making
those
connections
more
to
not
just
light
but
but
the
needs
of
the
of
the
community
surrounding
it
and,
as
we
add
more
activations,
and
I
would
I
would
certainly
welcome
viva
parks
connecting
with
my
office
to
to
ask
me
what
and
ask
my
team.
C
You
know
what
what
what
are
the
communities
in
district
7
and
in
other
you
know,
hopefully
those
conversations
will
be
happening
with
other
council
members.
You
know
what
are
those
other
areas
that
could
use
additional
activations
as
we
come
online.
I'd
love
to
have
those
conversations.
Thank
you.
That's
it
for
me,.
F
F
F
It
was
exciting
in
terms
of
what
we
could
offer
our
communities.
It
was
exciting
for
the
residents
to
suddenly
have
these
kinds
of
wholesome
family
friendly
activities
happening
right
in
their
own
backyard,
but
to
reactivate
downtown
to
reactivate,
even
our
own
plaza
with
the
I
call
it
the
sonic
boom,
because
it
made
such
a
blast
made
such
a
boom
in
in
the
way
that
we
saw
art
and
interactive
art
carry.
F
I
I
want
to
tell
you
that
that
it
was
one
of
our
we've
loved
everything
that
you've
brought,
but
that
one
you
know
we
got
to
walk
the
runway
and
and
pretend
that
we
were
in
high
fashion
and
all.
But
I
I
just
love
I.
I
really
do
love
what
everybody's
doing
and
look
forward
to.
Finally,
restoring
a
sense
of.
F
I
don't
want
to
say
normalcy,
but
yes,
but
also
a
feeling
of
lightheartedness
is
what
I'm
hoping
people
start
to
feel
as
we're
peeling
off.
You
know
the
the
layers
of
covid,
including
those
20-plus
pounds
that
some
of
us
have
put
on,
but
just
being
able
to.
Finally
get
I
see
ed.
Yes,
I
you
know
I
just
to
be
able
to
interact
with
human
beings
outside
of
the
zoom
platform.
F
You
know
I've
always
said,
and
I
know
it's
strange,
but
smelling
people
you
know
having
their
their
scent
around
us
good
or
bad
right,
but
but
it's
a
very
human
primal
need.
I
think
that
we
have,
in
addition
to
feeling
someone's
warmth
and
and
and
and
being
able
to
just
you
know,
just
feel
our
sense
of
humanity
again
in
such
a
very
physical
way.
F
So
I
think
that
that
what
we
do
this
summer
is
going
to
be
very
important
for
our
residents
in
terms
of
how
we
uplift
them,
how
we
uplift
the
community,
how
we
give
them
that
that
bit
of
hope,
in
addition
to
all
the
other
things
that
we've
been
doing,
the
food
distribution,
the
rental
assistance,
the
different
policies
that
need
to
be
put
in
place.
We
can't
forget
about
just
the
human
aspect
of
having
fun,
and
I
think
we
forget
about
that.
F
How
important
that
is,
because
we're
so
so
immersed
in
all
of
the
other
life
and
death
kinds
of
decisions
that
we're
making
right
now.
And
so
so
I
you
know,
I
I
just
I'm
very
grateful.
I'm
grateful
that
I'm
sorry,
I
always
flip.
It
is
coming
back
because
we
loved
it
and,
as
as
we
were,
getting
gaining
more
momentum,
the
feedback
that
we
were
getting
from
the
residents.
F
It's
an
opportunity
to
come
out
as
a
community
and
share
and
partake
in
one
day
and-
and
you
know,
our
hope
was
right-
ed
and
ankit-
that
this
would
eventually
become
a
much
more
robust
program
and
it
would
be
ongoing
because
we
had
so
much
feedback
and,
unfortunately,
you
know
we're
back
to
one
one:
a
year
or
two
a
year,
which
is
fine.
You
know
it's
a
nice
celebration,
a
nice
way.
F
I
think
it's
a
nice
way
to
say
you
know
buddha,
you
covet,
you
know
we're
we're
still
gonna
continue
having
fun
and
enjoying
each
other,
but
the
other
is
viva
parks.
So
for
me,
viva
parks
is
you
know?
I
I
almost
see
it
as
my
baby
as
well,
because
I
was
one
of
the
first
council
districts
to
bring
it
on
when
place.
Making
was
kinda
like
we
didn't
know
if
it
was
too
fluffy
or
how
people
were
going
to
react
to
it.
But
what
we
did
is
we
connected
it
to
health
and
well-being.
F
We
connected
it
to,
in
fact,
the
public
health
director
at
the
county
in
terms
of
how
we
believe
that
reactivating
some
of
these
parks,
especially
in
hot
zones
and
and
I'm
I
said
tuesday,
you
know
the
east
side
was
one
of
the
districts
that
had
the
highest
rate
of
obesity,
cholesterol
and
possible
heart
conditions,
and
that
was
for
children,
not
even
adults.
F
This
was
for
addressing
the
the
ills
of
what
children
were
facing
in
our
modern
day,
which
was
the
very
first
generation
that
was
noted
as
not
outliving
their
own
parents,
which
was
a
tragic
statistic
to
look
at
and
that's
why
viva
park
suddenly
became.
You
know
the
opportunity
that
we
had
to
pull
people
out
of
their
homes
out
of
in
front
of
the
television
out
of
in
front
of
the
video
games
and
getting
them
out
to
do
some
healthy
and
robust
activities.
F
F
But
viva
parks
was
specifically
with
the
intent
of
creating
healthier
environments
in
those
environments
where
we
saw
we
were
being
challenged
due
to
violence,
gang
hot
spots,
crime,
etc,
etc,
and
and
in
a
time
where
we're
all
going
to
be.
You
know
struggling
for
finance
for
financial
support,
but
I
think
more
importantly,
struggling
for
human
capital
who's
going
to
activate
it
who's
going
to
staff
it
who's
going
to
be
there.
F
F
F
So
that
we're
not
going
up
on
budget
day
fighting
for
limited
resources
and
fighting
for
limited
staff,
because
I
you
know
one
of
the
things
that
I
just
saw
was
that
on
a
five-day
schedule,
downtown
will
be
activated
which
is
wonderful
but
east
side,
whether
it's
that
corner
that
shares
that
I
share
with
councilmember
arenas
and
councilmember
esparza.
You
know
we
have
that
trifecta
there
between
eight
seven
and
five
to
be
able
to
have
activation,
take
place
closer
to
home.
F
We
know
our
our
people
don't
go
downtown,
they
don't
know
necessarily
about
all
the
salsa
dancers,
which
I
love
by
the
way
or
or
all
the
other
paint
parties
that
are
happening.
I
had
to
pay
a
paint
party
activation
at
veggie
lucian.
I
think
it
was
two
right
before
covet
hit.
We
were
we
had
to
do
a
movie
night
at
rainbow
children
of
the
rainbow
park,
which
was
not
included
in
the
in
the
original
viva
park
schedule.
F
So
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we
have
activation
outside
of
just
viva
parks,
but
we
have
those
fun
paint
nights
where
adults
can
go.
Have
a
glass
of
water
sparkling
water
with
a
little
something
in
it,
but
can
enjoy
that
away
from
the
kiddos,
maybe
and
have
just
an
adult
party
work
where
the
kiddos
in
these
little
remote
neighborhoods
that
we
know
are
very
densely
populated,
like
having
a
movie
net
at
poco
way
in
poke
away
having
a
movie
night
in
foxdale.
F
M
Council
member,
yes,
we're,
like
I
said
earlier,
I'm
sorry
we're
we're
working
towards
a
recreation
swim.
So
we
have
to
hire
more
staff
in
anticipation
for
the
reopening
of
recreational
swim,
which
we
believe
will
come
like.
I
said
we
have
it
scheduled
for
are
targeted
for
july,
the
8th,
but
with
the
position
closing
next
wednesday
and
then
the
training
we
got
to
see
how
many,
how
many
of
our
young
folks
actually
get.
M
The
training
is
very
difficult,
so
we
just
gotta
see
how
many
get
through
and
how
many
can
qualify
as
lifeguards
or
trainers
or
swim
instructors.
F
To
share
the
lifeguards
with
the
ymca.
M
Oh,
you
know:
lifeguards
are
really
they're
hard
to
come
by
they're
golden,
and
so
that's
that's
a
difficult
situation
and
you
know
I
think,
we're
not
as
competitive
with
pay
council
members.
So
it's
it's
a
it's
an
uphill
battle
for
sure,
but
we're
working
towards
getting
our
recreational
swim
program
started.
F
Right
at
the
beginning
july
yeah,
I
know
that
yeah
they
are
hard
to
come
by
because
of
the
training
and
the
safety
issues.
But
you
know
I
I
would.
I
would
reach
out
to
our
local
wise
and
see
if
their
own
lifeguards
are
interested
in
increasing
their
their
their
own
personal
capacity.
F
We
they
may
just
be
working
part-time,
the
whys
because
of
safety
issues-
and
you
know
I
don't
know
what
other
cdc
type
of
guidelines
we're
going
to
be
following,
but
maybe
they're
not
up
to
full
capacity,
but
they
have
a
great
great,
great
swim,
lifeguard
program
that
they
that
that
I
think
we
need
to
tap
into
and
see
if,
if
their
folks
haven't
gotten
back
to
work
or
they're,
not
working
full-time
or
they
need
just
more
hours,
and
maybe
we
can
use
them.
M
Absolutely
that's
a
great
that's,
a
great
tip,
we'll
definitely
follow
up
on
that.
I
And
council
member,
if
carrasco,
if
I
could
just
just
point
out
that
in
the
proposed
budget
there
is,
if
council
approves
the
proposed
budget,
there
will
be
an
opportunity
to
expand
viva
parks.
The
number
of
the
activations,
as
well
as
a
year-round
approach
to
take
advantage
of
our
beautiful
sunny
days
in
san
jose.
I
So,
yes,
I
I
and
we
hear
you
about
and
councilman
rusbarza
about
the
the
communities
of
concern
the
neighborhoods
and
how
we
take
advantage
of
the
additional
activations
to
move
into
neighborhoods
that
that
may
need,
as
I,
as
you
pointed
out,
just
a
little
more
joy
as
a
part
of
our
healing
process
through
recovery.
F
Thank
you
so
much.
I
really
appreciate
that.
I
know
council,
the
chair
has
a
few
other
people
to
call
on
the
last
comment
I'm
gonna
make.
Is
you
know
the
the
kind
of
activation
that
you're
doing
in
downtown?
F
I
I'm
going
to
ask
you
and
we'll
take
it
offline,
but
I
want
you
to
consider
doing
some
of
that
on
the
east
side
of
san
jose.
I
think
emma
push
park
serves
as
a
great
venue
for
these
three
districts,
where
we
have
some
huge
concerns
on
how
we
get
kiddos
involved
and
families
involved
and
and
we're
surrounded
by
those
really
tiny
apartments,
but
to
be
able
to
have
paint
night
to
be
able
to
have
salsa
night
to
be
able
to
have
a
garage
band
amateur
night.
F
I
don't
know
you
know
anything
that
we
can
do
and
then
the
last
thing
I'm
gonna
say
is
I
really
you
know
I
was
hoping
to
do
this
on
the
year
that
covet
hit.
We
had
already
been
talking
about
it,
but
to
be
able
to
close
down
part
of
story,
road
between
highway
101
and
the
corner
of
king
and
story,
and
be
able
to
activate
that
that
block
with
live
music
and
and
some
fun
activities
and
resources
for
our
families.
F
Again,
it's
a
great
location,
because
we've
got
three
council
districts
that
are
are
right
up
against
each
other
and,
and
it
includes
the
very
communities
that
we're
trying
the
very
neighborhoods
the
very
families
that
we're
trying
to
to
target.
So
so
I'm
going
hey,
I'm
still.
F
You
gotta,
you
got
another
council
member,
and
I
know
the
chair
is
just
itching
to
jump
in
here,
but
to
close
that
down
help
me
out
here.
Paint
nights.
Help
me
out
here
some
salsa
nights,
some
banda
nights.
Are
you
kidding
me?
I
know
that
that's
back
from
my
day,
but
there
you
go
there,
you
go
ed.
Oh
my
gosh.
G
If
you
could
just
maybe
shoot
us
an
email
about,
where
is
that
zone
where
those
three
districts
connect?
That
would
be
great,
but
I
want
to
let
you
know
in
the
pro
in
the
in
the
march
budget
message:
there
was
funding
set
aside
for
abierto
and
so
prns
and
I
have
been
ed
and
andre,
and
I
have
been
talking
about
that
and
that
is
going
to
go
through
pr
s
and
they're
going
to
in
their
plan.
G
Is
you
know
if
this
gets
approved,
that
they
would
have
some
of
their
vendors,
be
able
to
participate
and
provide
that
programming?
G
And
it
would
be
you
know,
city-wide,
but
and
and
andre
you
can
weigh
in,
but
I
want
to
let
you
know
that
one
of
the
pre-qualified
vendors
is
the
school
of
arts
and
culture
at
mhp.
So
a
lot
of
the
the
great
programs
that
you're
you're
thinking
about
you
know.
I
think
that
there's
you
know
some
potential
opportunities
there.
So
just
wanna
and.
E
Thank
you
so
much
carrie,
I'm
gonna
have
to
move
us
along
because
we
do
have
three
other
items,
but
before
we
go,
I
do
wanna
also
point
out
that
they,
the
oca,
needs
to
make
sure
kerry
that
the
music
day
opportunities
are
really
present
for
eastside
residents
as
well,
because
it's
coordinated
with
alfresco
the
alfresco
plan
and
al
fresco
plan
seems
to
be
more
in
the
well
glenn
area
or
in
the.
F
I
think
I'm
the
co-chair
yeah
so
so
sure
so
I'll
continue.
So
I
I
think
you
you
heard
where,
where
chair
adenos
was
was
oh
there.
She
is
where
she
was
leading.
I
F
E
A
E
It
is
along
the
same
lines.
What
you
were
saying:
councilmember
carrasco,
is
that
you
need
to
spread
the
wealth,
not
everybody
goes
downtown
and
another
gem
in
my
district
is
lake
cunningham,
and
I
know
if
you
want
to
get
a
little
get
away
from
everything
you
go
to.
Lake
cunningham
is
very
insulated,
but
it
offers
a
really
great
space
for
a
lot
of
activation.
That
doesn't
really
happen.
E
We
do
our
fall
family
festival,
but
that's
really
just
very
limited,
and
you
know
we
have
just
really
great
features
in
that
park.
So
I
want
to
make
sure
that
that
we
spread
the
wealth
like
I
said,
and
that
it
this
goes
further
than
the
downtown,
and
it's
not
only
connected
to
the
al
fresco
participants
or
that
we
encourage
more
participants
in
the
east
side
for
alfresco.
So
I'm
going
to
move
on
and
ask
for
a
motion.
E
I
believe
when
I
last
saw
there
were
other
council
members
had
lowered
their
hands.
So
there
isn't
anybody
else,
who's
going
to
speak
on
this.
Can
I
get
a
motion.
L
B
K
B
F
B
E
K
Good
afternoon,
everyone
kneel
our
funeral
assistant
director
of
parks,
recreation,
neighborhood
services.
In
respect
for
the
time
I
am
gonna
cut.
This
really
short.
I
just
have
shared
on
the
screen
kind
of
the
updates
that
we
are
presenting
on
the
commission.
I
want
to
thank
olympia,
williams
and
vanessa
gambling
from
our
staff,
who
were
able
to
get
the
commission
up
and
going.
K
I
want
to
thank
the
the
city
clerk
for
really
working
with
us
and
getting
commissioners
seated
in
the
last
few
months,
and
I
want
to
thank
our
chair,
jim
carter
and
nicole
address
the
vice
chair,
who
have
really
pushed
us
to
get
the
commission
going
personally
and
professionally.
I'm
very
excited
about
the
energy
that
the
commissioners
are
bringing
forward.
K
B
I
would
like
to
echo
what
neil
said
about
us
being.
K
Encouraged
by
the
commission
back
up
and
running
again,
it's
been
a
while
since.
B
We've
had
a
quorum,
and
I
would
like
to
thank
the
city
clerk
for
appointing
new
commissioners.
We
can
operate
now
and
during
last
meeting
we
were
able
to
set
up
our
work
plan
which
we're
pretty
excited
about
and
we're
anxious
to
get.
K
And
I
just
want
to
throw
up
the
next
slide
in
terms
of
some
of
the
next
updates
that
were
happening.
The
work
plan
is
being
worked
on.
There
will
be
a
budget
priority
letter
that
the
commission
just
approved
at
their
last
meeting
and
to
let
this
committee
know
that
in
the
proposed
budget
there
is
a
as
part
of
the
beautify
san
jose
consolidation.
There
is
some
staff
member
that
we
would
look
to
have
that
will
dedicate
support
to
this
very
important
commission
and
with
that
we
are
open
for
any
questions.
E
Thank
you
so
much
neil,
I'm
gonna,
take
a
look
and
see
if
we
have
any
public
speakers.
Mr
beekman,
we're
gonna
shorten
up
public
comment
to
one
minute.
D
Hi
yeah
blair
here.
Thank
you.
I
was
gonna
offer
a
quick
public
comment.
It's
a
lot
to
learn
how
the
budget
works.
It's
been
a
big
budget
week
the
past
week
my
own
interpretations
have
been
off
a
bit.
I'm
very
sorry
about
that.
I
hope
my
overall
viewpoints
and
interpretations
are
still
helpful
and
relevant,
but
I
will
be
adjusting
my
interpretation
how
to
look
at
budget
questions
in
the
future.
So
thank
you
for
this
item.
E
Thank
you.
We're
gonna,
go
back
to
the
committee
and
love
to
hear
a
motion.
B
L
G
J
E
I
Good
afternoon
everyone
hal
spandenberg
interim
division
manager
for
the
department
of
parks,
recreation,
neighborhood
services.
I'm
excited
to
have
our
teams
here
today.
M
To
present
on
our
summer,
programming
plans
try
and
keep
this
as
short
as
possible.
We
have
a
few
slides.
L
All
right,
so,
as
we
know,
these
are
our
goals
for
summer
2021.
The
covet
19
pandemic
resulted
in
some
significant
impacts
to
our
youth
throughout
san
jose,
missing
out
on
in-person
classes,
school
and
socialization
experiences.
L
We're
providing
a
hybrid
approach
to
our
programs
with
in-person
options
following
safety
and
social
distancing
protocols,
offering
virtual
options
for
those
who
are
more
comfortable
participating
remotely
and
we
are
prioritizing
our
registration
for
our
scholarship
eligible
families
next
slide
all
right,
so
we
are
actually
currently
in
the
middle
of
training,
our
rns
staff.
We
have
24
sessions
all
the
lines
to
the
california
quality
standards
for
expanded
learning
programming,
with
instruction.
E
Have
a
live
mike,
can
you
somebody
please
mute
yourself.
L
All
right
all
right,
so,
as
I
said,
we
have
24
sessions
that
are
all
aligned
to
california
quality
standards
for
expanded
learning
programs,
with
a
big
focus
on
scl,
bringing
in
some
hands-on
research-based
sel
curriculum
from
every
monday
matters.
In
addition
to
our
typical
trainings
on
covid19
health
and
safety
protocols.
L
This
summer,
our
model
is
practically
identical
to
what
we
ran
in
summer.
2020
camp
san
jose
strong,
has
a
full
day
model
for
youth
aged
five
through
12
and
a
half
day
model
camp
san
jose
strong
junior
for
those
three
to
five
years
old
will
be
offered
at
various
community
centers
libraries
and
parks
locations
again
prioritizing
registration
for
those
families
who
currently
participate
in
or
qualify
for
the
citywide
scholarship
program.
L
There's
additional
scholarship
opportunities
this
summer
that
can
eliminate
the
price
from
up
to
75
percent
to
100
percent,
so
many
of
our
families
may
be
able
to
attend
program
completely
for
free
if
they
qualify
and
the
only
difference
between
this
summer
and
last
last
summer
we
ran
our
programs
in
three
week
sessions.
Now
we
are
able
to
run
our
programs
in
one
week
sessions
we're
now
going
to
turn
it
over
to
alicia
ramirez.
B
Thank
you
nick
hello,
my
name
is
alicia
ramirez.
I
am
the
interim
leisure
program
supervisor
today.
I'm
updating
you
on
our
leisure
program
for
this
summer,
so
I
want
to
start
with
reminding
everybody.
What
leisure
programs
are.
These
are
programs
or
activities.
Our
community
participates
in
in
their
free
time
for
our
department
summer
season,
we
are
offering
200
specialty
camps
and
classes.
B
B
There
will
be
they'll,
be
at
improved
outdoor
locations
at
our
community
centers,
and
we
will
also
be
offering
specialty
camps
at
our
park.
Locations
such
as
almaden
lake
lake
cunningham
action
sports
park
and
happy
hollow
park
and
zoo.
The
program
model
will
consist
of
two
four-week
sessions.
Registration
is
currently
open
and
we
also
have
scholarship
opportunities
that
are
up
to
75
percent
off
for
those
who
qualify
so
nick.
That
is
going
to
talk
to
us
about
team
programming.
L
All
right,
so
we
do
have
some
specific
programming
aimed
at
our
teams
this
summer
sort
of
replicating
the
camps
now
as
a
strong
model.
We're
gonna
have
some
stable
summer
cohorts
for
teens
at
the
alma
youth
center,
alum
rock
roosevelt
and
seven
trees.
In
addition,
seven
trees
will
be
able
to
open
some
teen
late
night
open
gym
sessions,
in
addition
to
having
their
recording
art
studio
available
for
youth
12
to
22..
L
We
are
also
working
on
finalizing
an
agreement
with
the
county
of
santa
clara
probation
department
to
help
eliminate
barriers
for
entry
for
our
teens
to
enter
our
teen
centers,
our
sports
leagues,
to
plan
pro-social
family
engagements
and
field
trips.
Next
slide.
Please
all
right!
So
our
outreach
efforts.
We
have
opened
up
many
of
our
community
centers
city-wide
on
weekdays,
weeknights
and
weekends,
to
help
walk
our
families
through
the
registration
process
and
make
sure
they
have
all
of
their
scholarship
information
up
to
date
and
ready
to
go.
L
We
have
provided
our
information
with
a
multilingual
approach.
English,
spanish
and
vietnamese
sends
our
information
out
through
multiple
channels
through
a
uncg
partnership
through
prns
social
media,
flash
reports,
our
rock
and
learn
families,
the
school
city
collaborative
and
to
our
council
offices.
L
We
recently
started
participating
in
vaccination
events,
so
our
participation
at
rosemary
led
us
to
opening
up
a
brand
new
summer
pod
out
at
bascom
due
to
high
interest
and
we're
excited
to
be
out
at
the
children
of
the
rainbow
park,
vaccination
events
and
the
mayfair
community
center
events
later
this
month.
Next
slide.
Please
and
then
in
terms
of
food
insecurity.
Our
prns
camp,
san
jose,
strong
programs,
are
continuing
to
participate
in
the
summer
food
service
program.
L
This
is
the
most
sights
we
have
ever
been
at
we'll
be
at
bascom
emma
prush
mayfair,
roosevelt
starboard,
seven
trees
and
welch,
providing
free
lunch
and
snack
to
our
participants
in
our
camps
there,
and
we
anticipate
serving
at
minimum
17,
000,
lunches
and
snacks
to
those
participants.
I'm
now
passing
it
on
to
israel.
E
Before
you
move
on,
we
have
seven
minutes
before
12
and
we
have
another
committee
at
1
30.
So
it
would
be
great
if
we
could
just
have
some
really
quick
highlights.
Thank
you.
B
B
Cohort
will
begin
june
27
through
august
7th,
and
that
will
encompass
about
140
youth.
Coming
from
youth
intervention
services,
we
will
be
placing
youth
at
council
offices,
non-profit
organizations,
community
centers
library,
also
working
in
partnership
with
word
to
future
they'll
may
be
able
to
provide
opportunities
at
high
growth
sectors
that
they
work
with
their
partners.
B
M
E
Thank
you,
israel,
and
it's
really
good
to
hear
that
a
lot
of
those
intervention,
the
youth
participated
in
intervention,
are
I'm
going
to
have
something
for
this
summer.
That
is
absolutely
I'm
grateful
and
I'm
excited
thank.
B
B
B
Hi
good
afternoon
my
name
is
lizzy.
As
israel
said,
I'm
going
to
talk
to
you
about
some
of
the
library
programs.
So
this
is
the
seventh
year
that
the
library
is
offering
free
summer
meals.
They
have
offered
grab-and-go
meals
in
2020,
in
accordance
with
distance
guidelines
at
four
library
location
and
served
over
5000
meals.
This
this
year,
summer,
lunches
will
be
hosted
at
seven
library
of
locations,
including
our
newest
site,
at
west
valley.
B
Next
line,
taking
a
look
at
our
youngest
learners,
the
staff
has
been
utilizing
data
from
the
2018
santa
clara
county
school
readiness
assessment
to
guide
program
goals
and
implementation.
This
study
found
that
only
44
of
san
jose
youth
were
fully
ready.
There
were
significant
racial
and
ethnic
and
gender
disparities
in
readiness
in
san
jose
with
readiness
levels
significantly
higher
among
girls
across
racial
and
ethnic
groups
and
among
white
children
relative
to
children
of
color.
So
when
planning
and
implementing
our
program,
the
city
staff
use
data
to
focus
on
the
picture
developmental
goals
above
next
slide.
B
B
Many
children
in
san
jose
spend
a
significant
portion
of
their
time
in
family
friend
and
neighbor
care,
and
it's
important
that
we
recognize
their
contributions
and
support
their
work.
We
connect
is
an
opportunity
for
the
library
to
meet
the
needs
of
these
informal
caregivers.
Each
week
covers
a
new
topic
as
well
as
acknowledging
and
appreciating
the
role
of
caregivers
and
how
they
shape
and
influence
the
development
and
growth
of
the
children
in
their
care.
In
the
winter
of
2020,
the
san
jose
public
library
launched
the
ffn
caregiver
support
necker,
which
is
comprised
of
50
participants.
B
Participants
have
access
to
a
wide
range
of
learning
opportunities,
including
childhood
employment
classes,
health
and
safety,
training,
self-care
wellness
support,
digital
literacy
workshops
and
early
learning
activities,
as
the
first
cohort
draws
to
a
close.
The
library
is
excited
to
begin
recruitment
of
the
second
cohort
for
another
another
50
ffn
caregivers.
B
The
first
court
will
continue
to
meet
during
the
rest
of
the
year
next

Our
summer
learning
program.
Summer
learning
is
an
eight-week,
long,
literacy
initiative
for
all
ages
that
runs
june
1st
to
july
31st
and
offers
participants,
incentives
for
reading
and
learning
summer.
Learning
fosters
a
love
of
reading,
doesn't
matter
what
how
or
where
students
read
if
they
enjoy
it,
it
counts.
Students
can
read
novels,
nonfiction,
comic
books
or
listen
to
audiobooks.
B
Summer
learning
also
engages
readers
of
all
ages
by
promoting
early
jersey
skills
for
participants
ages,
birth
to
five
and
challenging
parents,
caregivers
and
adults
in
the
community
to
model
a
love
of
reading.
Participants
can
track
their
reading
online
with
a
web
app
or
paper
logs
in
four
languages
and
best
of
yet
all
readers
under
18
years
old
can
pick
out
two
free
books
at
any
library
location.

The
library
is
hosting
the
13th
annual
graphic
novel
making
contest
it's
where
amateur
authors
and
illustrators
in
four
age
groups
are
encouraged
to
create
their
own
eight
page
comic
book.
A
rubric
will
be
used
by
a
panel
of
library
staff
and
comic
industry
experts
to
judge
entries
and
overall
story,
originality,
creativity
and
illustrations.
The
awards
ceremony
this
year
will
be
virtual
and
now
I'll
pass
it
off
to
samantha
kramer
good
afternoon
council
members,
as
lizzy
said,
I'm
samantha
I'm
going
to
really
speed
through
my
slides,
so
we
can
get
get
through
this.
B
We
will
be
hosting
a
range
of
virtual
programs
for
school
age
learners,
including
all
of
the
ones
that
you
can
see
here
on
the
slide.
I
did
also
just
want
to
highlight
that
we
are
committed
to
ensuring
that
underserved
students
can
attend
all
of
these
programs
and
we've
developed
an
outreach
plan
to
make
sure
that
we
reach
those
students
by
working
with
our
schools,
community
and
faith-based
organizations
in
targeted
neighborhoods
next
slide.
B
We
have
many
exciting
programs
on
the
horizon,
including
utilizing
feedback
from
school
city
collaborative
to
inform
sj
access
and
expanded
learning,
school,
supportive
programs,
a
college
and
career
readiness,
logic
model,
the
resiliency
core
program
and
the
launch
and
implementation
of
the
expanded
learning
quality
standards
at
both
prns
and
sjpl
next
slide,
and
thank
you
for
your
time
and
we
will
now
take
any
questions
you
may
have
thanks.
So
much.
E
Samantha,
I
appreciate
that
and
we're
going
to
go
to
the
publix
for
public
comment
and
I
don't
see
any
hands
unless
something
happened.
E
F
Oh,
thank
you
so
much
and
I'll
take
some
of
my
I'll
take
some
of
these
concerns
offline
or
not
concerns,
but
just
some
feedback
that
I'd
like
to
give
to
the
team.
F
One
of
the
concerns
just
right
off
the
bat
that
I
want
to
have
it
recorded
here
is
making
sure
that
our
kiddos,
who
are
coming
in
for
job
experience,
that
we
put
them
in
or
we
make
every
effort
possible
to
put
them
into
those
positions
that
they
otherwise
would
not
have
been
able
to
do
so
on
their
own
and
I'll,
give
you
an
example.
It
was
a
little
disheartening
when
I
saw
the
report
come
back.
It
was
a
year
ago,
based
on
the
previous
year.
F
There
was
a
great
number
of
our
kiddos
that
were
placed
in
fast
food
door
dash
and
I
think
it
was
like
forever
21.
and
I
don't
knock
those
jobs.
My
very
first
job
was
carl's
jr.
I
learned
very
early
on
that.
I
needed
to
turn
in
that
college
application
that
was
sitting
on
my
desk
and
so,
but
but.
F
Value
to
all
these
jobs,
but
the
point
is:
if
they
can
do
that
on
their
own,
then
they
don't
need
us.
Our
our
job
should
be
to
serve
as
a
vehicle
to
get
them
into
those
positions
or
into
those
offices
that
they
would
not
have
access
to
on
their
own,
and
so
I'm
hoping
that
that
that
will
happen
this
year.
C
Likewise,
be
quick
one,
I
wanted
to
echo
councilman
carrasco's
remarks
about
the
employment.
I
know
that
we
we
talked
about
that
at
length
at
a
previous
nse
meeting
in
particular.
If
we,
I
think
it's
really
important
to
have
a
pipeline
into
tech.
I
I've
said
many
times
that
we
have
children
living
in
san
jose
in
the
shadow
of
silicon
valley,
and
yet
they
have.
They
are
not
part
of
silicon
valley,
and
so
we
need
to
create
those
pipeline
positions
and
offer
them
those
internships
where
they
can
get
mentorship
and
future
jobs.
C
I
wanted
to
ask
about
the
summer
feeding
the
summer
lunch
program.
I
know
pr
s.
Does
this
most
folks
are
unaware
that
that
summer
is
actually
the
biggest
challenge
when
it
comes
to
hunger
in
our
community,
because
kids
aren't
in
school
and
so
they're,
not
getting
those
breakfasts
and
lunches
that
they
would
normally
be
getting
given
covid
and
everything
that
we've
come
out
of.
C
Are
we
planning
to
do
some
outreach
or
offer
have
sort
of
a
little
stash
of
meals
or
other
things
that
we
can
offer
to
families?
Who
might
wonder
what
those
distributions
are?
I
know
that
there's
a
lot
of
planning
about
food
distributions,
certainly
within
our
non-profit
partners,
about
the
upcoming
year,
but
we
we
can't
expect
parents
and
neighbors
to
come
to
the
community
centers
looking
for
help.
C
I
Thank
you,
councilmember
esparza,
we'll
look
into
that
and
get
back
to
you.
I
just
know:
there's
a
difference
between
our
closed
enrolled
program,
feeding
as
versus
the
open
ones
when
I
using
air
quotes,
because
I've
learned
a
lot
about
that
over
the
last
couple
years,
the
open
programs
that
library
runs
as
well
as
just
coordinating
with
our
food
and
mississippi's
eoc
work
to
understand
what's
happening
at
schools
versus
our
own
program.
So
if
you
don't
mind,
I
will
get
back
to
you
on
that.
C
And
if
it's,
if
it
takes,
you
know
us
who
live
and
breathe
this,
and
and
knowing
the
difference
in
these
programs.
I'm
I'm
sure
that
that
you
know,
people
who
are
just
struggling
to
survive
may
not
understand
those
differences,
and
I
just
want
to
be
prepared
in
case
folks,
do
show
up,
even
if
it's
a
handout
or
an
emergency
meal
kit,
or
something
that
we
might
have
to
to
give
out
that
information.
C
C
The
numbers
are
much
higher
than
they
were
pre
pandemic,
certainly
and
much
higher
than
some
folks
might
might
realize
those
that
aren't
pr
staff
working
on
the
food
distribution.
That's
it
for
me.
Thank
you.
E
Great,
thank
you
so
much
councilmember
spars
and
I'm
just
going
to
quickly
remind
folks
who
presented
around
the
workforce
development
is
that
I've
asked
in
council
meeting
for
staff
to
connect
with
joe
harrity
who's,
been
doing
a
lot
of
work
around
youth
workforce
development
so
that
we
can
really
address
the
needs
of
our
youth
match
them
up
with
the
programs
that
we
actually
have.
E
I
know
that
in
the
long
run,
we're
working
on
a
logic
model
that
will
build
on
the
sequence
of
the
types
of
programs
that
we
have,
but
in
the
meantime
we
need
to
make
sure
that
we
honor
our
youth
and
not
match
up
our
brown
children
with
litter
pickup
that,
even
though
a
job
is
a
job
and
it's
honorable,
we
need
to
make
sure
that
we
have
a
step
up
and
that
we
assess
the
needs
of
our
children
so
that
they
can
also
walk
through
the
doors
of
the
buildings
that
they're
picking
up
trash
around
and
not
be
on
the
outs
of
that.
E
So
I
had
much
more
to
say
about
that,
but
I
will
need
to
make
sure
that
you
all
are
connecting.
I
I
believe
I
gave
a
name
of
joe
herity,
so
when
this
gets
cross-listed,
if
it
gets
cross-listed
to
counsel,
I
will
also
be
looking
for
those
features.
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we
pave
the
path.
E
I
think
council
member
sparta,
councilmember
carrasco
already
said
it
a
path
that
creates
opportunities
and
and
not
a
quick,
just
a
band-aid,
because
many
of
our
our
youth
who
are
looking
for
employment
are
probably
contributing
to
a
greater
household.
So
thank
you
for
the
report.
I
apologize
for
the
speediness
of
it,
but
I
appreciate
your
flexibility
and
your
willingness
to
just
go
with
the
flow
on
this.
J
D
J
J
E
So
the
last
item
is
assessment
of
fair
housing
and
it
is
unfair
that
it's
the
last
one,
but
because
we
are
out
of
time
reagan,
I'm
hoping
that
maybe
we
can
just
dig
in
step
into
questions
versus
having
an
overall
presentation.
I
believe
all
our
committee
members
have
probably
read
the
report.
E
I'm
looking
at
our
community
comments
and
we
have
mr
beekman.
D
Hi
blair,
beekman
I'll
try
to
keep
it
under
a
minute
real,
quick.
I
mentioned
at
the
beginning
of
the
items
today.
You
know
the
importance
of
practicing.
You
know
good
practices
with
the
eviction
moratorium
coming
up.
I
I
hope
all
people,
you
know
tenants
owners
alike-
can
can
be
into
ideas
of
the
eviction
moratorium
at
this
time
and
how
to
how
to
help
it
along
at
this
time,
and
you
know
the
ideas
of
mixed
income.
D
You
know
with
the
ideas
of
zoning
issues
at
this
time
and
and
eli
and
and
vli.
I
hope
you're
just
thinking
of
creative
ideas
how
these,
how
these
practice
practices
can
happen.
I
hope
this
relates
to
fair
housing
ideas
and
how
you
address
the
future
of
the
flea
market,
to
invite
vendors
to
the
process
of
development
of
the
flea
market
area
and
for
yourself
to
be
a
resource
for
that.
I
hope
that
can
take
place
and
that
that
to
me
is
for
our
housing.
E
E
So
seeing
that
there
isn't
any
I'm
going
to
begin
with
just
first
just
appreciating
the
the
report.
I'd
also
like
to
have
some
acknowledgement
of
the
past
I
think
to
in
order
for
us
to
move
forward.
We
need
to
look
at
the
past
and
acknowledge-
and
I
know
that
you're
very
sensitive
to
that
reagan
and
specifically
to
the
city
of
san
jose.
E
I
know
that
there
has
been
some
efforts
here,
of
course,
just
like
in
any
other
city
that
ever
like
that
have
created
segregation
like
the
racial
zoning,
the
covenants,
the
deed
restrictions,
and
I
I'd
like
for
us
to
acknowledge
those
neighborhoods
and
acknowledge
who
they
are
and
what
they,
what
they've
gone
through,
and
to
to
recognize
why
people
continue
to
live
where
they
live
currently,
and
I'd
also
like
to
have
us
integrate
some
of
the
information
and
some
of
the
history.
E
That's
in
oh
gosh,
with
miss
with
professor
pt
in
the
color
of
law,
in
devil
in
silicon
valley.
There's
some
great
examples
like
the
san
jose
unified
district
versus
diaz
court
case,
which
was
successful
in
1985
and
had
substantial
court
findings
on
segregation
in
san
jose.
They
also
found
that
the
school
district
was
was
at
fault
for
continuing
to
segregate
in
san
jose,
unified
school
district
neighborhoods
and
that
they
had
a
segregative
intent,
and
so
that
also
plays
a
part
in
in
our
community.
E
I
want
some
of
that
to
also
get
reflected,
as
well
as
making
sure
that
we
are
not
only
just
acknowledging
that
segregation,
but
addressing
that
segregation.
E
I
know
that
we
have
a
lot
of
housing,
that's
built
in
public
transit
corridors
because
of
the
access
to
transportation,
but
that's
also
on
the
outskirts,
a
lot
of
neighborhoods
and
maybe
a
lot
of
predominantly
white
neighborhoods,
which
would
continue
to
perpetuate
this
segregation
of
communities.
And
I
know
that
that's
not
the
intent.
The
intent
is
to
facilitate
transportation
and
ease
of
of
that
commute
for
our
neighbors,
especially
those
who
don't
own
a
car.
E
E
B
Yeah,
those
are
all
really
important
comments
chair
and
I
feel
like
the
good
news
is.
This
is
not
the
only
bite
at
this
apple,
the
afh.
B
What
we're
bringing
forward
to
you
today
is
just
the
initial
data
and
findings
we'll
be
back
later
to
this
committee
with
some
specific
recommendations
that
will
address
your
third
point
chair
about
what
are
we
doing
to
actually
address
the
segregation
and
then
I
think
we
can
also
acknowledge
and
comment
on
your
other
points
around
acknowledging
those
specific
neighborhoods
and
some
of
that
other
history
around
the
san
jose.
E
Thank
you.
I
know
that
you'll
have
very
comprehensive
policies
that
acknowledge
all
of
that,
and
so
I
I
really
appreciate
that,
and
I
look
forward
to
seeing
what
those
look
like
the
last
thing.
E
I'll
just
say
is
that
when
we
put
affordable
housing
in
in
districts
or
in
areas
that
are
not
rich
and
resources
it
you
know
we
are
perpetuating
that
cycle
for
for
that
new
group
of
folks
who
are
going
to
reside
there,
and
so
the
last
piece
is
just
making
sure
they're
that
we
break
that
kind
of
investment
into
the
areas.
I
know
I'm
asking
for
a
lot
reagan,
but
that
if
we
look
at
the
long
vision,
that's
what
I
would
love
to
see
for
our
city,
I'm
sure.
E
B
For
all
the
right
things,
so
you
know
we're
currently
working
on
an
affordable
housing,
siting
policy.
We've
been
doing
some
community
and
stakeholder
outreach
and
getting
a
lot
of
feedback.
So
we
will
be
to
council
pretty
soon
with
a
recommendation
on
a
citing
policy.
C
Sorry,
yes,
I
actually
was
gonna,
make
those
same
remarks
and
I
I
did
see
it
acknowledged
in
the
memo
and-
and
I
so
I
won't
repeat
what
councilmember
adana
so
eloquently
just
said.
What
I
I
will
ask,
though,
is
are
we
looking
at
the
work
that
abag
and
mtc
are
doing?
It's
there's
a
shift
in
thinking
around
around
putting
you
know,
affordable
housing
or
other
things.
You
know
affordable
housing
in
high
resource
areas.
I
think
it's
a
huge
deal
for
the
first
time.
C
Government
locally
is
is
starting
to
realize
that
and-
and
I
recognize
that
we
need
to
lift
communities
up
and
work
on
that
every
single
day,
and
that's
that's
what
was
behind
big
equity?
Why
five
of
us
brought
equity
in
2019,
because
we
do
need
an
equitable
approach
on
the
city's
entire
budget?
C
B
B
I
know
that
we've
worked
with
planning
and
especially
the
long-range
planning
group
within
pbce,
commenting
on
plan
bay
area
and
the
infusion
of
equity
into
that
work,
which
is
really
important
and
quite
different.
This
time,
and
so
yes,
and
actually
through
the
upcoming
housing
element
cycle.
This
assessment
of
fair
housing
work
is
really
important
because
it
is
going
to
inform
our
next
housing
element
cycle
and,
to
the
extent
that
we
are
thinking
really
carefully
about
where
you
should
be
putting
housing
from
a
race
and
equity
perspective.
B
That
is
new
and
it
is
now
embedded
in
state
law,
and
so
this
afh
work
and
its
findings
and
the
strategies
that
emanate
it
emanate
from
that.
We
will
be
embedding
some
of
that
into
the
next
housing
element
cycle
as
work
plan
items
that
we
need
to
work
on
over
the
following
eight
or
nine
years,
and
so
that
is
very
much
the
frame.
C
There
was
an
effort
amongst
many
cities
to
create
an
even
more
equitable
plan,
which
I
know
my
fellow
san
jose
and
on
the
a-bag
would
have
liked
to
approve,
but
it
was
really
kind
of
a
a
binary
choice
on
on
going
back
backwards,
or
you
know
to
choosing
this.
The
plan
that
that
we're
on
and
and
thank
you
to
council
member
at
ns
for
bringing
up
san
jose,
unified,
I'm
actually
a
graduate
of
san
jose
unified
and
that
district
fought
segregation
for
20
years
here
in
san
jose.
C
B
E
Thank
you,
and-
and
last
thing
you
know-
I
just
want
to
remind
because
I
don't
want
to
get
a
habit
lost-
that
there's
still
corporal
punishment
happening
in
our
school
systems.
As
I've
mentioned
previously
in
florida,
there
was
a
principal
who
was
captured
on
videotape
paddling,
a
six-year-old
with
a
force
that
shouldn't
be
used
on
no
one,
especially
one,
that's
so
little,
and
that
state
attorney
has
deemed
that
act
which
they
will
not
file
any
criminal
charges.
E
And
so
what
does
that
say
to
the
brown
and
black
community,
not
only
in
florida
but
across
the
united
states?
And
that
is
that
we
are
deemed
to
be
disciplined
this
way
and
to
be
conditioned
to
then
line
up
for
interactions
with
authority.
E
This
way
and-
and
it
is
very
disheartening-
and
it's
very
disheartening-
I
know
that
we
all
have
some
stories
to
tell
in
terms
of
racial
segregation
and
here
in
san
jose.
We
are
not
free
of
it,
certainly,
maybe
not
to
the
level
that
florida
is
still
continuing
to
see,
but
it's
painful
because
those
images
and
those
stories
continue
to
to
be
seen
by
our
community
and
impacted
by
our
community.
E
So
I'm
glad
that
you're
all
making
sure
that
we
reflect
our
story
accurately
and
respectfully,
and
I
really
appreciate
that
reagan
and
kristen,
and
thank
you
so
much
for
for
this
report.
We
look
forward
to
seeing
it
as
it
continues
to
evolve.
Like
you
said
it's
it.
This
is
not
the
end
for
certainly
not
the
end,
but
but
I
appreciate
where
it's
at
at
the
moment.
So
thank
you
and.
C
I
move
approval
and
to
refer
it
to
the
junior
council
meeting.
A
B
F
E
You
thank
you,
and
so
this
leads
us
to
open
forum
and
I'm
gonna
take
a
look
at
our
public
and
we
have
calling
user
one.
If
you
could,
please
submit
yourself
and
begin
public
comment,
so
this
means
any
item
that
was
not
on
the
nsc
agenda.
K
K
I
hope
they're
going
to
have
to
follow
the
same
rules
that
the
homeowners
have
to
follow
with
high
property
taxes,
fees,
fines
had
a
guy
in
my
neighborhood.
He
had
a
flagpole
in
his
front
yard.
Had
there
for
50
years,
it
was
an
inch
too
high
thanks
to
code
enforcement
head,
take
it
down
buying
250
bucks
a
day
if
you
didn't
take
it
down,
and
they
put
you
under
a
lot
of
pressure
to
do
that.
K
So
I
want
you
guys
to
realize
that
what
I
heard
today
was
a
lot
of
programs
for
people
who
are
in
need,
and
that's
fine.
I
get
it.
But
what
about
the
people
who
follow
the
rules?
Who
pay
a
lot
of
money
to
live
here
in
property,
taxes
and
fees
and
all
the
taxes
on
your
phone
and
your
utilities
and
everything?
E
Thank
you
so
much
and
now
we're
gonna
move
on
to
our
next.
Mr
beekman.
D
D
There
are
youth
programs
for
union
apprentices,
apprenticeship
jobs
that
I
thought
I
should
mention
at
this
time
and
that
I
think
we
have
to
be
cautious
in
how
we
continue
this
summer
through
this
age
of
covid
and
that
hopefully
cautious
practices
this
summer
can
allow
ourselves
a
good
fall
and
with
20
seconds
you
know
to
mention
the
mixed
income
ideas.
You
know
that
she
said
reagan
said
we're
like
eight
or
nine
years
away.
It's.
What
we
practice
now
is
what
I'm
trying
to
say
are
good
practices.
D
E
Thank
you,
mr
bakeman.
That
brings
our
meeting
to
an
end.
Thank
you
all
for
joining
us
and
for
hanging
in
there
and
thank
you
for
all
the
presenters
for
being
so
concise
and
we'll
see
you
next
month.
Thank.
