I
know
we
talked
about
having
the
two
items
that
were
deferred
from
yesterday,
8.4
and
8.5
to
be
heard
right
after
consent.
B
So
whoever
the
maker
of
the
motion
is,
could
you
give
that
some
concentration,
okay,
so
Pages
14
to
15,
16.

Hi
very
big
man
here
on
December
6th
consent
calendar
there
are
items
of
yearly,
Federal,
funding
of
programs
of
local
law
enforcement
and
continuing
city
government
projects
of
more
surveillance,
data
collection
and
Broadband
Tech
for
the
current
war
of
much
U.S
influence
going
on
in
the
Ukraine
at
this
time,
along
with
the
federal
help
to
the
to
the
more
honest
to
the
honest
local
law
enforcement
concerns
of
2021-22,
are
we
at
the
time
to
want
to
Again
Begin
the
peaceful
steps
to
lead
the
era
of
9
11
and
the
overall
concepts
of
war?
D
And
from
this
do
we
want
to
openly
work
to
continue
more
on
to
more
honestly
address
the
concepts
of
our
reimagined
future
at
the
local,
National
and
international
level,
as
it
is
with
these
Concepts
that
we
can
begin
to
more
openly
better
question?
What
may
be
the
actual
needs
and
demands
of
current
law
enforcement,
it
surveillance
technology
and
its
data
collection
within
local
San,
Jose
and
Bay
Area
neighborhoods.
D
This
simply
should
make
the
questions
of
continuously
asking
for
more
and
more
aoprs
Shots
by
their
e-stopper
Tech
and
other
surveillance,
tech
for
local
neighborhoods
as
highly
susceptible
and
a
lot
unneeded
and
from
this
to
again
offer
Berkeley
local
government
in
its
everyday
Community
have
proven
that
together
we
can
work
towards
continual
adjustments
of
better
civil
protections
and
open
public
policies
and
good
accountability
practices
within
all
of
the
new
law
enforcement
surveillance
and
Commercial
data
collection,
Tech
that
is
currently
being
placed
in
our
local
communities.
At
this
time.
E
F
C
This
is
agenda
items
that
are
on
the
December
6th
Council
agenda.
If
you
want
to
talk
about
other
items
that
aren't
on
the
December
6th
agenda,
this
is
not
that
time.
Okay,.
B
Thank
you
before
we
entertain
a
motion
got
asked.
The
state
manager's
office
has
his
agenda
been
properly
low,
balanced.
H
I
think
that's
probably
as
well
as
yesterday's
was
laughs.
All
right.
I
have
a
question,
though
just
so
this
is
8.3
and
8.4
are
already
the
items
that
were
that
were
delayed
from
last
week,
right
so
they're
on
here.
So
you
should
we
put
a
when
you
said,
make
them
after
consent.
Usually
when
we
have
these
11
A.M
starts,
we
have
ceremonial
and
by
the
time
we
get,
then
we
take
the
lunch
break.
So
should
we
maybe
set
time
certain
one
o'clock
or
something
or
well.
F
G
You
if
and
since
we
wouldn't
in
the
discussion
for
the
vice
mayor,
we
wouldn't
be
taking
a
break
until
12
30
for
lunch,
where
that
gives
you
a
90
minute
chunk
to
work
through
consent
and
then
immediately
after
consent.
B
We
wanted
to
have
a
formal
lunch
break
time,
so
the
mayor
doesn't
screw
that
up.
Like
I
did
previous
meeting
there.
You
go
all
right.
Yeah,
I,
see
council
member
Perales
hit
your
Henry.
J
Yeah
I
was
just
going
to
take
ownership
for
poor
judgment
on
the
length
of
the
time
that
the
meeting
would
take
yesterday,
moving
into
1
30.,
so
I'm
glad
you're
back
and
and
able
to
keep
us
in
line
there,
because
I
I
I
messed
that
one
up
thanks.
B
In
in
all
transparency,
councilmember
Perales
I
did
bring
up
yesterday.
That
I
was
not
at
that
Rules
meeting.
B
All
right,
I'll,
don't
see
any
other
hand.
Sprays
I'll
entertain
a
motion.
K
B
All
right
next
is
the
agenda
for
Tuesday
December
13th
and,
like
always,
we're
gonna
start
on
pages
four
and
five
foreign.
B
D
All
right,
we're
Beekman
here,
I
think
this
may
be
the
last
agenda
for
kind
of
a
lot
of
council
and
the
mayor
if
it
is
just
good
luck
to
ourselves
on
such
a
long
agenda.
D
There's
an
item
on
it's
been
a
good
eight
years,
thanks
so
I've
been
defining
I've
been
better
understanding.
What
eight
years
means
in
election
terms.
Thank
you
for
that.
There's
items
about
renewable
energy
contracts.
D
Good
luck
in
how
I
think
the
Bay
Area
has
done
an
awesome
job
in
kind
of
separating
ourselves
from
the
future
of
what
exactly
is
the
fossil
fuel
industry
and
and
and
dirty
fuels
compared
with
renewable
energies
and
how
to
really
separate
and
compartment
compartmental
I
can't
say
the
word
but
separate
the
two
concepts
very
well
of
Renewables
and
and
fossil
fuel
energy
in
Southern,
California
I
think
they
have
a
bit
more
difficult
time
with
that.
D
So
thank
you
for
the
what
you're
doing
I
think
it's
an
awesome
example
for
everyone
with
there
there's
an
item
about
law
enforcement
oversight.
That's
going
to
be
interesting
to
hear
good
luck
on
how
to
address
that
issue.
It
involves
lawyers,
so
good
luck
and
finally,
8.2
is
an
item
about
electronic
Billboards
on
city-owned
property
status.
Report.
D
I.
Think
it's
a
time
for
me
to
try
to
make
clear
with
new
people
coming
in
that
I
think
you
did
not
know
how
to
speak
very
well
to
the
concepts
of
what
exactly
is
data
collection
of
the
electronic
Billboards
and
where
that
data
collection
ends
up
going.
I
really
hope
we,
just
as
a
new
group,
comes
in
of
elected
officials
that
we
make
real
honest
attempts
to
more
honestly
talk
about
data
collection
practices
and
want
to
try
to
make
those
efforts
to
to
always
want
to
talk
better
and
better
about
open
technology
practices.
E
L
Okay,
thank
you,
Paul
Soto
from
the
Horseshoe
first
of
all,
I'm
asking
the
vice
mayor.
If
you
could
please
do
that
again.
That
was
far
too
quick
to
even
to
to
catch
anything
so
number
one
I'm
formally
requesting
that
you
do
that
again,
because
that
was
way
too
fast.
That's
number
one
number
two
is
that
the
consent
calendar
is
being
stacked
with
with
items
that
you
guys
just
get
to
this
point
where
you
get
real
Giddy
and
you
think
that
policy
is
a
joke.
L
You
think
that
stacking
these
these
agendas
is
a
joke,
but
yet
when
those
policies
are
actually
implemented
in
the
inadequacies
in
the
incompetence
of
this
council
is
reflected
in
the
failures
of
those
policies,
then
it's
not
a
joke.
No
more,
then,
all
of
a
sudden,
those
Smiles
off
on
your
faces
or
stripped
from
them,
and
then
you
come
in
here
with
your
folks
sympathy
and
empathy
and
act
like
you
care
about
what's
going
on
in
this
city,
but
while
you're
here
right
now,
you're
joking
and
you're
laughing,
because
you
think
this
is
a
joke.
L
You
think
that
that
agenda
being
stuck
the
way
that
it
is,
is
a
joke.
That's
not
a
joke!
That's
a
crime
that
that's
what
that
is,
that
is
a
crime
against
the
humanity
and
the
Dignity
of
the
citizens
of
the
city,
because
you
were
stacking
it
and
you
were
not
allowing
any
kind
of
conversation
around
issues
that
had
no
business
being
on
that
consent.
Calendar
have
absolutely
no
business
and
you
still
haven't
passed
a
law
or
resolution
that
legally
disallows
the
citizens
from
asking
to
have
items
pulled
from
that
agenda.
L
You
still
haven't
formed
no
resolution
with
regard
to
that
so
I'm
making
those
requests.
I'd
like
you
to
do
that
again,
so
as
a
citizen
I
can
see
what's
on
there
and
the
fact
that
you
make
a
mockery
of
these
policies.
When
you
start
laughing
and
joking,
but
yet
when
it's
instituted,
you
ain't
laughing.
B
Thank
you.
I
will
now
go
to
my
Council
colleagues
for
employed
or
emotion.
O
J
C
E
B
Thank
you,
okay,
on
to
the
consent
calendar,
let's
open
it
up
for
public
comments.
D
Hi
Well
Beekman
here
I,
wanted
to
speak
to
the
public
record
and
the
additions
to
a
couple
work
plan
committee,
work,
plan,
items
compartmentalized,
that's
what
I
was
trying
to
say,
I'm
still,
not
saying
it
very
well,
but
that's
something
what
I
wanted
to
say
before
about
the
public
record
things
there's
a
there's
a
letter
from
Verizon
I
think
it's
about
the
placement
of
of
certain
Broadband
things
in
in
a
local
neighborhood.
You
haven't
been
doing
that
for
a
while,
and
you
just
did
that
again.
D
Thank
you
boy,
I
I
didn't
do
that,
and
I
haven't
noted
that
recently
it
was
a
great
service.
You
were
providing
by
doing
that
and
it
was
a
good
form
of
trying
to
be
accountable.
Thank
you
and
and
good
luck
into
the
new
Administration
and
working
on
those
sort
of
things.
Continuing
those
sort
of
good
efforts.
Thanks,
I
hope
you
can
continue
that
and
with
the
the
additions
to
I,
think
it's
a
neighborhood
services
and
smart
cities
with
a
smart
cities.
D
It's
digital
printing,
the
digital
divide,
digital
issues,
digital
equity,
and
you
know
like
what
I
tried
to
say
in
the
previous
item.
You
know
and
this
item
we
have
an
important
cause
to
really.
We
have
to
just
be
on
top
of
things
about
how
we
can
always
want
to
improve
ourselves
about
how
to
talk
about
our
our
technology
for
our
community
and
I.
Think
that
would
be
just
so
helpful.
D
You
know
that
it's
the
small
things
that
we
do
that
to
improve
ourselves,
that
that
add
up
over
time
and
that
prove
that
we're
we're
building
that
better
future.
You
know
and
and
working
hand
in
hand
with
digital
Tech,
breaking
the
digital
divide,
with
open
public
policies.
That's
the
community
Harmony
things
that
I
think
I
hope
we
really
want
to
work
for
and.
D
With
the
neighborhood
services
things
that's
children
and
youth
programs.
Good
luck
with
that!
That's
been
a
really
a
good
effort
by
by
staff
and
yeah.
Just
that
we're
dressing
up.
E
E
F
F
Good
enough
so
yeah
so
on
on
number
10
on
the
council
vacancies.
You
know
when
we're
looking
at
setting
the
agenda
for
that.
I
would
like
to
say
that
I
live
in
District
three
and
I
support
the
elections,
special
elections
for
10
for
districts,
eight
and
ten.
One
reason
is
because
I
imagine
that
if
it
were
District
three
and
five
that
were
vacant,
the
people
in
those
districts
would
also
want
special
elections
and
it
wouldn't
be
about
cost,
and
it
wouldn't
be
about
turnout.
It
would
be
about
what's
fair
to
those
voters.
F
People
saw
redistricting
around
this
time
last
year.
The
same
groups
who
are
opposing
special
elections
now
are
the
same
groups
who
tried
to
take
advantage
of
the
process
and
move
a
district,
five
city
council,
candidate
from
Warner
Heights
over
to
District
8.
Fortnight.
The
people
in
that
small
neighborhood
recognized
what
was
happening
and
spoke
out
against
it.
These
groups
are
not
the
people
who
should
be
handpicking
our
new
council
members.
We
also
saw
what
happened
in
October
with
three
La
council
members
and
the
president
of
the
labor
Federation.
F
Unfortunately,
the
power
given
to
council
members
law,
along
with
their
agendas
of
political
aspirations,
can
cause
them
to
lose
touch
with
the
concepts
of
democracy
and
the
people
they
are
supposed
to
represent.
For
six
of
the
past
vacancies,
they
have
held
special
elections
most
times
the
Council
seat
was
left
vacant
during
the
election.
It's
not
only
one
Council
seat
this
time,
but
two
seats
that
account
for
18
of
the
council
vote.
F
O
L
Yes,
also
from
the
Horseshoe
once
again,
I
I
see
what's
going
on,
because
I've
I'm
coming
from
an
informed
perspective,
I've
spent
over
five
years
sitting
with
this
Council
and
listening
to
your
lies
and
your
Kennedy,
and
it's
really
easy
to
spot,
because
I've
spent
my
life
around
sociopaths
and
I
know
a
sociopath
when
I
when
I
hear
one
and
see
one.
L
That's
why
I
was
able
to
stay
out
of
games
while
in
in
the
prison
system,
and
so
one
of
the
characteristics
is
that
they
have
this
very
Cavalier
and
nonchalant
attitude
towards
human
suffering
and
human
suffering.
Like
I
said
it,
isn't
it
isn't
in
the
prison
camps?
It
isn't
even
in
the
jails
this.
L
The
the
human
suffering
starts
in
the
policies
and
like
I,
said
by
men
that
wear
collared
shirts
and
have
clean
cut
fingernails
and
they
speak
in
soft
tones
because
they
don't
have
to
shout
because
they're
committing
their
crimes
against
humanity
in
these
consent
calendars,
when
you
deprive
the
people
of
the
of
the
very
basic
principles
of
democracy.
Okay,
so
with
respect
to
the
the
this
consent
calendar
and
and
whether
or
not
it's,
why
is
it
even
a
question
as
to
whether
or
not
the
people
have
the
right
to
choose
their
leaders?
L
That
is,
that
is
not
a
that
is
not
a
privilege
that
you
should
even
consider
affording
to
yourself
that
shouldn't
even
be
a
consideration.
Do
you
see
every
single
one
of
you
should
demand
that
it
goes
straight
back
to
the
voters,
but
you
see
you
when
you
had
your
aspirations
for
going
off
to
some
other
office.
You
didn't
afford
that
that
you
didn't
even
consider
that,
because
of
your
own
political
Ambitions,
you
didn't
consider
the
people
that
they
would
be
scrambling
for
leaders
in
representation.
L
I
Yes,
hi
Martha,
O'connell,
regional
manager
for
gsmol,
representing
mobile
home
park
residents.
I
have
submitted
a
letter
to
Mayor
and
Council
supporting
the
idea
of
an
election,
the
people
in
the
mobile
home
park
communities.
The
residents
are
a
very
specific
constituency
and
we
Face
very
serious
issues
coming
up.
There
are
two
parks
in
two
two
parks
in
d-10
and
four
parks
in
d8,
and
these
people
should
have
the
right
to
elect
their
representatives
and
not
have
them
hand-picked.
I
I'd
also
like
to
make
a
comment
about
the
analysis
of
how
much
this
election
is
going
to
cost.
I
was
told
something
late
last
night
that
I
have
not
yet
had
a
chance
to
investigate,
but
I
have
been
advised
that
the
person
from
the
county
who
gave
astronomical
figures
for
how
much
these
elections
are
going
to
cost,
was
a
supporter
of
the
unsuccessful
candidate
for
mayor
and,
in
fact,
was
at
this
candidates.
Election
night
watch
party.
So
I
don't
know
if
that
is
true.
I
I
found
out
late
last
night:
I
haven't
done
an
independent
investigation,
but
if
it
is
I
think
we
really
need
to
take
a
look
at
the
estimate
for
the
cost
of
these
elections,
because
if
it
is
true,
I
would
suspect
a
bias,
so
I
share
Council
post
can
Cohen
idea,
I
hope
we
have
robust
discussion
of
this
I
hope
you
have
not
made
up
your
minds
and
I
hope
that
you
let
the
people
choose
their
representatives.
Thank
you.
B
You
I
will
entertain
a
motion
for
the
account.
K
J
B
Okay.
The
next
item
is
accelerating
digital
Equity
by
deploying
high-speed
fiber
to
all
households
at
no
cost
to
taxpayers
we'll
go
to
the
public
first
public
comments.
D
All
right
comment
a
bit
differently
on
this
item:
I,
guess
to
compliment
the
mayor
for
his
eight
years
of
work
on
this
issue.
I
was
in
a
conversation
about
the
subject
the
other
day,
and
it
occurred
to
me
that
mayor
licardo
worked
really
hard
for
digital
issues
and
digital
Equity
issues
to
be
a
choice
and
choices
of
a
local
community,
and
he
worked
hard
in
those
efforts
and
I
I
wanted
to
be.
D
You
know
around
the
concepts
of
how
to
bring
open,
accountable
practices
when
local
communities
work
on
these
sort
of
projects,
but
the
fact
that
he
made
it
the
efforts
of
an
individual
Community
to
work
on
such
things
instead
of
the
state
level
or
federal
level.
It
was
an
interesting
choice
of
the
mayor
and
I
think
it's
been
a
really
interesting
process
for
us.
That's
given
us
more
choices
and
and
good
choices
of
flexibility.
How
to
work
on
issues
that
I
think
has
been
pretty
interesting.
D
I'm
not
explaining
this,
possibly
as
well
as
I
could.
But
that's
certainly
what
we've
gone
through
in
the
past
just
eight
years
with
the
mayor
and
good
luck:
how
to
be
considering
those
things
still
that
I
think
it
doesn't
offer
selfishness.
Actually,
it
offers
some
interesting
good
practice.
I
I
think
that
may
be
needed
for
the
local
level
in
their
decision
making
about
their
Broadband
practices.
D
L
Yes,
Paul
Soto
from
the
Horseshoe.
Let's
talk
about
equity
yeah.
Let's
talk
about
that
and
let's
talk
about
the
contradiction
in
your
title:
digital
equity,
for
all-
that's
a
that's!
This
is
a.
This
is
a
misnomer.
It
is.
It
is
a
contradiction
in
terms
you
see.
Lawyers
are
the
ones
that
write
these
up.
You
know
they
go.
They
go
through
the
city
attorney's
office,
so
there
are
a
bunch
of
white
lawyers
that
know
absolutely
nothing
about
what
it
is
to
live
in
Nevada,
absolutely
nothing
or
the
generational
deprivations
of
resources.
L
In
these
modules
they
know
absolutely
nothing.
Okay.
So
when
they're
writing
it's
a
mock.
Writing
digital
equity
for
all
is
a
mocking
term,
because
what
they're
doing
is
that
your
attorneys,
when
they're
writing
the
script
and
they're
putting
out
the
text?
They're
mocking
these
neighborhoods
and
they're
they're
perverting
what
Equity
actually
truly
means
there
is
no
equity
for
all,
that's
impossible.
It's
an
oxymoron
okay!
L
So
that's
number
one
number
two
is
that
I
don't
want
to
hear
for
all
I'm
not
concerned
about
for
all
I'm
concerned
about
my
community,
that
is
continually
been
deprived
of
resources
that
we
actually
had
coming
and
that
we
were
deprived
in
violation
of
the
Fifth
Amendment
and
the
14th
Amendment
of
equal
protection
under
the
law
and
due
process.
So
under
those
two
premises,
what
I
want
is
equity
for
certain
zip
codes
and
those
zip
codes.
Starting
number
one
are
the
zip
codes
that
suffered
the
most
coveted
infections
and
deaths.
L
We'll
start
there
and
use
that
as
a
start
point
and
then
we'll
just
move
on
per
zip
code,
because
what
it
will
do
is
it'll
leave
the
West,
Side,
Cambrian
and
Willow
Glen
it'll
leave
them
last
where
they
belong.
B
G
Okay,
parkness
Deputy
city
manager.
Yes,
we
have
an
early
consideration
form
and
basically,
two
versions:
one
is
a
greenlit
version,
which
would
be
a
light
touch
request
for
information
where
we
would
gather
the
interest
in
this
kind
of
proposal
and
do
a
quick
evaluation
of
that.
The
second
yellow
light
version
is
actually
doing
the
in-depth
full
evaluation
and
moving
forward
to
procurement
or
negotiations
it's
yellow
lit,
because
that
would
require
more
resources
than
we
have
available
at
the
time
to
do
this
without
re-prioritizing
other
work.
B
Thank
you
so
R2
to
possible
decisions
or
light
touch,
or
the
more
in-depth,
correct.
H
Yeah
I
mean
I
was
going
to
ask
this
question.
We
have
a
lot
of
memos
on
this
and
a
lot
of
I
mean
I,
don't
know
some
of
them
take
more
and
less
time.
I'm
concerned
about
sort
of
ending
the
year
with
loading
up
staff
with
things
that
may
not
be.
You
know,
may
seem
a
little
bit
peripheral
to
what
our
focuses
are.
H
P
Thank
you,
Rob
Lloyd,
Deputy
city
manager,
councilmember,
Cohen,
I,
think
the
option
one
does
present
a
good
first
take
at
things.
We
we
could
then
learn
and
then
see
what
the
options
are
and
hear
from
the
new
Council
where
priorities
are
and
then
give
you
a
kind
of
a
better
path
with
that
one.
But
both
options
are
are
possible
and
we
want
to
line
that
out
per
the
memo.
H
O
B
L
Yeah,
thank
you
for
catching
that
Tony
Paul
sister
from
the
Horseshoe.
This
is
where
I
have
probably
the
most
expertise,
especially
considering
that
certain
council
members
keep
trying
to
call
probation
and
put
me
back
in
there
which
ain't
gonna
happen
just
so
that
you
know
you
know,
I
got
some
people
back
in
my
plate
too,
in
the
county,
so
anyways
you
are
stepping
into
an
arena
where
you
don't
belong.
This
is
a
county
issue.
L
Let
the
county
do
their
job
and
here's
why
Juvenile
Hall
has
no
girls
in
there
anymore,
not
civil,
okay,
and
they
have
at
last
count
which
was
I,
don't
know,
maybe
six
weeks
ago,
12
boys,
okay,
how
was
it
the
case
when
I
was
there?
Okay,
there
was
a
couple
of
hundred
of
us
in
juvenile
hall
back
in
the
1980s
okay,
so
this
is
you
guys
are
stepping
into
Arena,
where
you
really
just
you
know
just
just
step
back
man
just
step
back.
Obviously,
they're
handling
their
business,
okay,
you're
just
stepping
into
this
Arena.
Okay.
L
So
let
them
continue
to
do
what
they
got
to
do.
Okay,
because
San
Jose
was
actually
responsible
for
the
proliferation
of
juveniles
being
in
custody
and
creating
California
Youth
Authority.
It
was
this
County,
because
this
County
represented
the
most
admittees
the
most
inmates
in
both
the
California
Youth
Authority
and
the
conviction
rate
in
the
entire
California
Department
of
Corrections
prison
system.
This
County
right
here
so
and
and
the
city
of
San
Jose,
was
the
one
that
sent
the
most
people
to
to
jail
out
of
any
of
the
cities
in
this
County.
L
Q
Good
afternoon,
I'd
like
to
speak
in
support
of
this
proposal
from
the
chairperson
of
the
rules
committee
council,
member
Jones.
These
issues
are
truly
complex,
complex
in
terms
of
trying
to
figure
out
what
to
do
and
extremely
complex
in
terms
of
trying
to
figure
out
how
to
do
it.
They
involve
multiple
levels
of
government,
not
just
the
city,
the
D.A,
the
county,
but
also
state
government
They,
may
involve
constitutional
issues.
Q
Sometimes
it
may
be
a
good
political
strategy
to
pretend
that
complex
issues
are
simple,
but
that's
rarely
a
good
strategy
for
governing
and
I'm
pleased
to
see
in
this
memo
concern
about
a
strategy
for
governing
that
would,
in
fact,
improve
the
safety
of
the
people
in
San
Jose,
if
not
the
people
throughout
the
county
and
I
think
this
would
be
a
good
step
forward.
Thank
you
very
much.
G
Correct
there's
an
early
consideration
form.
It
basically
has
two
recommendations
or
two
parts
of
the
recommendation.
One
is
a
greenlit
recommendation
which
would
be
working
collaboratively
with
the
various
incentury
components
of
the
county
to
have
a
working
group.
Look
at
each
and
one
of
these
issues.
B
Conclusion
that
if
we
don't
get
cooperation
from
the
county,
then
we're
very
limited
in
terms
of
what
we
could
do
to
move
this
forward.
But
assistant
chief
I,
don't
know
if
you
have
any
thoughts
on
that.
R
Well,
yes,
vice
mayor
I
would
agree
it's
hard
to
have
a
one-way
discussion,
but
I
think
the
county
I
mean
my.
My
sense
is
that
they
would
be
willing
to
have
these
discussions
as
they
were
willing
to
meet
with
us
in
September
and
and
really
this
is.
This
is
sort
of
a
fact-finding
Mission
by
all
of
us
to
help
the
policy
makers
yourselves
come
to
the
right
conclusions,.
B
No
thank
you
because
the
real
purpose
of
this
this
memo
and
assistant
chief,
thank
you
for
working
with
me
to
the
formulate
it
is,
is
a
follow-up
from
the
joint
mean
that
we
had
with
the
county
and
out
of
that
meaning
there's
there
was
a
feeling
of
you
know
wanting
to
continue
to
work
together
and
collaborate,
but
you
know
I
wanted
to
see
a
little
something
a
little
bit
more
Concrete
in
terms
of
next
steps.
So
that's
what
this
novel
represents.
Thank
you
for
working
with
me
on
it.
B
I
don't
see
any
hands
raised.
I
will
entertain
you
in
a
motion.
E
O
C
O
B
C
Q
Thank
you
and
thank
you
for
allowing
me
a
second
bite
of
the
Apple
to
speak
again,
I'd
like
to
speak
in
support
of
the
Memo
from
council
member
Esparza
a
while
back
I
spent
two
years
as
a
member
of
the
city's
Sunshine
task
force
and
since
then,
I've
continued
to
have
an
interest
in
and
a
commitment
to
transparency
and
high
standards
of
Ethics
in
San
Jose's
government.
The
flaws
in
the
status
quo
I
think,
are
obvious.
Q
S
Good
afternoon,
members
of
the
committee,
my
name,
is
wascar
Castro
with
working
Partnerships
would
like
to
voice
our
strong
support
for
the
memo
put
forth
by
councilmember
Esparza
and
really
appreciate
the
intent
of
this
memo,
which
is
to
be
proactive
in
keeping
separate
elected
officials
and
their
abilities
to
govern
and
the
heavy
influence
of
independent
expenditures.
S
Over
the
past
couple
years,
there
has
been
blurred
lines
of
the
interaction
between
elected
officials,
potential
influence
and
relation
to
folks
with
independent
expenditures
and
how
that
has
made
its
way
into
effects
of
City
business.
While
we
recognize
that
there
may
be,
there
may
have
not
been
improprieties
having
the
ability
to
allow
special
interests
to
not
have
an
overt
amount
of
influence
on
our
local
ability
to
to
govern
is
of
utmost
importance.
S
T
Good
afternoon
my
name
is
Sarah
McDermott
and
I'm.
The
political
director
of
unite
care,
local
19.,
on
behalf
of
our
members,
I,
want
to
thank
council
member
sparsa
for
her
Memo
and
express
our
strong
support
for
ensuring
we
have
a
transparent
democracy
in
San
Jose.
We
must
be
proactive
in
making
sure
we
create
a
clear
separation
between
elected
officials,
their
staff
and
independent
expenditures.
Over
the
past
couple
years,
we
have
seen
several
instances
where
special
interests
have
had
too
much
influence
through
contributing
to
IES
being
either
controlled
or
Guided
by
City
officials.
T
U
Hello
good
afternoon,
my
name
is
Jose
Luis,
pavon
and
I'm,
a
political
organizer
with
SEIU
usw.
U
U
We
would
like
to
thank
council
member
Mayas
parsa
for
putting
forward
this
proposal,
and
we
enthusiastically
support
my
esparzas
proposal.
We
for
us.
It
is
absolutely
urgent
to
make
sure
that
there
are
checks
and
balances
in
place
to
make
sure
that
we
have
an
equitable
democracy
at
a
local
level.
U
To
ensure
transparency
and
and
I
would
I
would
go
further
to
say
that
to
name
some
of
these
special
interests
that
that
a
major
corporations,
the
the
tech
Lobby,
the
real
estate
Lobby
among
others,
should
not
have
an
imbalance,
disproportionate
amount
of
power
and
say
over
the
governance
of
the
city
of
San
Jose.
So
it's
not
just
that
politicians
may
be
skirting
the
law
to
create
independent
expenditures.
It's
powerful
corporate
interests
that
are
are
taking
over
the
city
and
we
need
to
maintain
a
balanced
democracy.
Thank
you.
U
L
Yes,
also
from
the
Horseshoe
I
need
to
remind
everybody
that
one
of
the
greatest
in
in
history
will
bear
this
out.
History
will
vindicate
what
I'm
about
to
say
the
non-disclosure
agreement
that
was
signed
by
three
senior
tours.
Okay,
our
mayor,
our
current
mayor,
D3,
representative
and
five
rivers
and
their
staff
members,
which
one
of
them
is
Omar
Taurus,
signed
a
non-disclosure
agreement
with
Google
one
year
before
they
voted
Now,
look
up
in
the
in
the
penal
code
under
637.
L
This
is
a
crime,
it's
called
bribery,
and
what
briary
means
is
that
you
accept
something
in
exchange
for
something
else,
but
a
power
that
was
given
to
you
that
was
necessarily
can
which
work
is
that
you're
doing
or
exercising
meaning
that
those
Representatives
had
no
business
inside
of
a
room.
Then
an
disclosure
agreement
with
Google
one
year
before
they
voted
on
the
Google
land
deal
number
two:
is
that
the
what
they
did?
Is
they
didn't
land
the
Google
which
they
absolutely
had?
They
had
the
fiduciary
accountability
and
responsibility
to
the
people
that
they
were
presented.
L
They
would
have,
however,
because
it
was
non-disclosure
agreement
and
and
kept
secret.
They
didn't
feel
that
fiduciary
responsibility,
because
it
was
never
going
to
be
exposed
to
the
people,
which
means
they
took
that
privilege
assumed
that
privilege
when
people
made
a
vote
and
then
told
there's
telling
the
people
running
the
people's
control.
Trust
us
we're
doing
this
in
your
best
interest.
L
B
The
committee
all
right,
thank
you,
I
know
that
council
member
Esparza
is
here,
I
mean
on
Zoom,
so
council
member
response
go
ahead.
N
Thank
you
vice
mayor,
I
I
wanted
to
say
a
few
words
about
this
memo.
First
of
all,
I
whoops.
We
don't
want
that
having
some
technical
challenges.
N
Firstly,
you
know
I
specifically
waited
until
after
the
election
to
bring
this
memo
forward.
It
is
not
intended
to
be
about
any
one
election
or
person.
It
really
has
to
do
with
the
tradition.
At
the
city,
the
city
of
San
Jose
has
been
a
leader
in
transparency
and
local
government,
most
notably
with
Mayor
Chuck
Reed's
Sunshine
reforms
in
2006,
and
this
memo
seeks
to
continue
that
tradition
by
aligning
our
Municipal
Code
so
that
it
conforms
with
state
law.
N
Furthermore,
it
builds
upon
the
advice
given
to
the
city
from
the
fppc
identifying
really
what
is
essentially
a
good
governance
loophole
and
builds
on
the
discussions
of
the
board
of
fair
campaign
and
political
practices
again
to
align
with
state
law.
These
actions
raise
the
bar
for
all
of
us
all
of
the
elected
officials
in
our
city,
and
so
I
asked
that
you
approve
this
item
to
come
to
the
council
for
a
full
consideration.
B
Thank
you.
Looking
for
other
hands
raise
comments,
motion
council,
member
Davis.
K
V
V
Yeah,
thank
you,
council,
member.
As
I
understand
it.
This
would
be
directing
our
office
to
return
with
the
items
that
she's
outlined
in
the
memo,
and
our
job
would
be
to
do
that
in
a
way,
that's
most
legally
defensible
and
if
we
don't
think
we
can
to
let
the
council
know
that.
K
Okay,
is
there
a
kind
of
a
timeline
for
that?
Is
this
going
to
be
so?
The
reason
I'm
asking
I'm
I'm
in
favor
of
this
but
I,
don't
know
that
this
that
the
rules
committee
has
the
ability
to
direct
you
without
going
to
council
first
correct.
V
My
understanding
is
this
will
go
to
council,
but
it
either
way
we
can
look
at
it
and
I
know.
The
board
is
looking
at
at
least
some
of
these
issues
also,
so
we
would
want
to
coordinate
with
them,
which
board
the
board
of
fair
campaign.
K
K
Given
that
we
only
have
two
I
I'm
happy
to
make
the
motion,
and
and
with
apologies
to
council
member
Esparza,
given
that
we
only
have
two
meetings
left
of
the
year
and
they
are
pretty
full
I
I'm
happy
to
make
the
motion
to
move
this
forward
to
agendize
it
for
early
January.
K
Q
H
If
we
ask
something
more
General
like
review
these
potential
actions
and
other
actions
that
could
be
taken
to
to
align
a
city
council
member's
participation
in
independent
expenditures
with
their
same
restrictions,
we
have
in
other
types
of
fundraising.
Do
we
really
have
to
go
to
council
for
that
or
can
can
we,
as
you
know,
say,
let's
come
back
with
that
report
to
council
so
that
we
can
discuss
what
we
can
do
before?
We
just
take
a
vote
to
ask
you
to
to
do
that
and.
V
H
E
I
H
Would
have
a
discussion
at
Council
as
opposed
to
taking
that
interim
step
that
wouldn't
necessarily
bring
us
any
answers
yet
so,
as
long
as
that's
I,
don't
know,
if
you
think
that's.
K
V
Well,
two
things:
yeah,
the
agendas
are
so
full
January
would
be
better
for
us
and
I'm
losing
our
election
attorney
to
the
City
of
Palo
Alto,
so
I
I
we're
gonna
need
to
backfill
there,
so
I'm
going
to
need
a
little
more
time
than
normal.
Okay.
Yes,
thanks.
K
Yeah
so
I'm
happy
to
amend
my
motion,
then,
as
suggested
by
councilmember.
H
Cohen
I
act,
I
mean
I,
actually
wanted
to
be
a
little
more
General.
In
the
motion
itself,
I
mean
I
know
that
the
memo
has
specific
recommendations,
but
I
I
wanted
to
also
add
something
more
General.
That
says
just
to
look
at
limitations,
legality
and
liability
of
prohibiting
city
council
staff
from
working
for
or
chairing
IES.
H
So
it's
a
more
general
statement,
as
opposed
to
you
know,
a
specific
remedies
that
are
in
the
memo
and
then
also
looking
at
whether
we
can
amend
the
revolving
door
policy
to
address
this,
the
you
know
what
you
can
do
after
you
leave,
so
that
that's
a
more
General
way
of
of
looking
at
it.
What
having
your
office
look
at
what's
possible
and
what's
not
so
we
can
have
the
full
answers.
So
can
I
add
those
two
things
as
a
amendments
to
the
motion.
H
V
It
it
is
I
I
think
we
would
probably
do
both
the
specific
and
the
and
the
general,
and
and
also
coordinate
with
the
board.
If
the
board
is
going
to
be
making
recommendations
to
the
Council
on
some
of
these
things
and
I
think
we
ought
to
coordinate
with
them
too.
B
Okay,
so
we
have
a
modified
Motion
in
a
second
and
councilman
Moranis
I
see
your
hands
raised.
W
Yes,
thank
you
so
I
just
wanted
to
thank
council
member
Esparza
for
this
memo.
I'm
sad
that
we're
not
going
to
be
able
to
speak
and
have
her
be
part
of
the
discussion
before
well.
Neither
one
of
us
is
going
to
be
part
of
this
discussion
and
I
absolutely
just
want
to
highlight
how
important
it
is
for
our
Mayors
to
be
those
protectors
and
guides
that
she
referenced
in
her
Memo
in
this
this
last
campaign.
W
Election
excuse
me
just
really
muddle
the
waters
in
a
way
that
I,
don't
think,
encourages
democracy
and
transparency
for
for
our
local
electeds,
and
so
thank
you
so
much
for
for
putting
this
forward.
Councilman
versus.
B
All
right,
thank
you,
don't
see
any
other
hands
raised.
We
have
Motion
in
a
second
Tony
arenas.
S
C
S
M
Thank
you
chair.
Sorry,
Tony
I
was
cut
off
by
the
elevator
on
the
last
vote.
Oh
could
you
mark
me
as
a
yes?
Yes
thank
you.
B
D
Right
we're
Beekman
here,
you
guys
have
this
sort
of
item
a
few
weeks
ago
on
an
agenda.
I
was
really
hopeful
for
it
and
what
you
guys
could
have
been
talking
about
the
future
of
parking
issues,
cars.
What
do
we
do
about
the
future
of
car,
individual
Transportation
single
occupancy
vehicle
use?
D
First,
the
future
of
mass
transit,
all
those
sort
of
good
questions
and
boy
I
was
pretty
I
wanted
to
learn
from
that
meeting
and
then
share
that
stuff
down
here
in
San
Diego
as
they're,
going
through
some
of
the
same
things
at
this
time.
The
same
questions
about
the
pizza,
their
downtown
area.
D
All
right,
you
guys
have
made
a
really
important
start
on
these
efforts
to
consider
the
future
of
cars
and
parking
Santa
Clara,
the
City
of
Santa
Clara,
is
interested
in
this
sort
of
work.
I
hope
that
we
have
some
beginning
good
steps
and
I
hope
you
want
to
make
those
next
steps
more
solidified,
now
and
more
open
and
clear
in
in
this
sort
of
future
of
downtown
events.
D
And,
of
course
you
know
my
feelings
that
the
future
of
downtown
simply
has
to
have.
You
know
a
more
to
be
considering.
D
For
all
the
tech
and
data
collection,
that's
going
on
currently
in
downtown
to
to
want
to
also
offer
open,
accountable
practices
that
invites
that's.
That's
people
will
say
well
yeah.
Let's
look
into
that.
That's
cool!
We
can't
go
downtown.
I
can
ask
my
government
questions,
they're,
not
spying.
On
me,
they're
working
with
me.
You
know
they're,
not
they're,
not
working
against
me.
C
D
To
have
that
accessible
process
available
that
I
hope
you
really
want
to
work
on.
That's
how
we
build
a
good
future.
You
know
our
shared
good
future
sustainable
things,
and
so
good
luck
to
really
trust
that
we
can
talk
about
technology
with
everyday
Community.
Thank
you.
L
From
the
Horseshoe
beg
to
differ,
the
government
is
working
against.
You
there's
been
two
efforts
in
the
past
30
days
to
have
me
locked
up.
So,
yes,
they
are
against
you
and
they
consider
certain
citizens
of
the
city
enemies
of
the
state.
L
My
Council
person,
D3
District
3,
gave
this
analogy
a
couple
of
weeks
ago.
He
stated
that
well
at
a
Thanksgiving
dinner,
you
know
you
got
to
make
room
for
people,
you
know
when
they
come
down
and
this
one
this
was
in
response.
It
was
a
very,
very
weak,
very
impotent
response
to
my
challenge
that
this
city
needs
to
be
honest
about
the
400
000
people
that
you
guys
already
planned
to
be
here.
L
You
Gary
dillable,
Eric,
Hayden,
Jay,
Paul
and
all
the
rest
of
them
decided
that
400
000
people
are
going
to
come
here.
You
didn't
I,
don't
I,
don't
remember
the
council
I
don't
know.
Maybe
I
was
locked
up
when
that
council
meeting
happened,
but
I
don't
ever
remember
when
that
council
meeting
happened.
Is
it
going
to
happen
here?
Okay,
are
you
going
to
be
honest
about
the
fact
that
you
guys
already
decided
that
that
was
going
to
happen
to
us
and
then
we
just
got
to
sit
down
and
accept
that?
L
L
Is
that
what's
going
to
happen
here?
Is
that
what's
going
to
happen
here
or
are
they
going
to
come
here?
They're
going
to
stay
and
they're
going
to
start
using
their
money
to
exercise
power
power
in
the
city
where
racial
Equity
has
still
not
been
amended?
The
policies
that
created
the
inequities
by
which
I
have
had
to,
and
my
parents
and
my
grandparents
have
had
to
contend
with
for
over
80
years,
still
needs
to
be
accounted
for.
The
City
attorney
and
the
city
itself
is
still
responsible
for
the
reparations
for
the
Chicanos.
B
Thank
you,
Kip
I
know
we
have
an
early
consideration
form
for
this
item.
G
Yes,
Mr
vice
mayor,
Kip,
Harkness,
Deputy
city
manager,
we
do
have
an
early
consideration
form
and
the
recommendation
from
staff
is
that
it
is
green
lit.
Let
me
explain
that
just
a
little
bit
the
way
that
it
comes
to
a
green
light
on
this
is
that
it
takes
these
recommendations
and
puts
them
into
the
budget
process
in
what's
called
an
MBA,
a
manager's
budget
addendum,
and
what
that
would
do
is
take
these
recommendations
and
evaluate
how
much
resources
would
be
required.
G
What
the
work
plans
would
look
like
and
then
make
recommendations
on
what
it
would
take
to
move
forward.
So
the
the
changes
from
the
recommendation
are
that
we
wouldn't
be
returning
to
Council
in
the
first
quarter
of
2023,
but
that
all
of
these
would
be
bundled
as
part
of
the
budget
and
Deputy
city
manager.
Rosalind
Huey,
as
well
as
Chris
Burton,
director
of
planning
and
bloggers,
are
here
to
speak
to
this
item.
If
there
are
any
questions.
B
Thank
you,
councilmember
Perales,.
M
I
don't
know
if
the
mayor
was
on
was
going
to
defer
to
him.
No
he's
not
on
okay
sounds
good
well,
I
appreciate
the
response
from
staff
and
recognized.
The
timing
here
may
not
allow
for
that.
First
quarter,
but
I
I
think
this
gives
the
Council
next
year
an
opportunity
to
have
a
good
discussion
on
some
things
that
I
think
will
be
worthwhile
to
plan
and
address
as
we
we
enter
the
year
and
so
I
appreciate
the
staff
recommendation
and
I'll
move
approval.
C
B
D
Hi
I,
don't
quite
understand
the
depth
of
this
item.
So
I
will
pass
I'd
lowered
my
hand
up
I'll
pass
good
luck
on
this
item.
I
L
They're
spying
on
us
is
what
they're
doing
collecting
our
data
and
looking
at
all
our
little
dirty
little
secrets
with
respect
to
this
item.
What
I
would
like
Paul
something
from
the
Horseshoe?
What
I
would
like
to
see
is
the
analysis
of
who
do
you
have
planned
to
live
in
these
spaces
that
you
are
considering
for
conversion,
I.
Think
a
very
clear,
not
not
this
big,
affordable
that
isn't
going
to
work
anymore
man,
you
know
I
mean
you
guys
use
these
euphemistic
terms
to
really
shy
away
from
being
accountable
and
responsible.
L
But
yet
you
want
to
come
after
me.
Have
cops
Point
guns
at
me
and
lock
me
up
in
in
inside
of
the
cage.
That's
where
you
guys
think
I
belong
well,
at
least
some
of
these
members,
and
and
that's
that's
what
I'm
talking
about
is
that
you
guys
still
have
not
come
to
a
point
where
you
could
just
be
honest
with
the
public
about
the
corruption
that
you
guys
are
doing.
I
mean
you.
L
Can
you
just
sit
there
with
your
laughter
and
your
smiles
and
your
mockery
and,
and
you
pass
policies
and
and
the
stuff
is
already
decided
before
we
even
come
to
the
meeting
I
mean
already-
it's
you
guys
have
already
decided
Ricardo
Bird
born
that
out.
So
what
what
you
need
to
do
with
this
particular
item
is
be
honest
about
who
you
have
targeted
to
live
in
this
okay,
because
it's
not
the
regular
average
citizen,
okay,
because
46
of
Santa
Clara
County.
This
is
a
fact.
L
L
B
Thank
you
skip
I
know,
there's
an
early
consideration
form
on
this
item
as
well.
G
Yes,
Mr
vice
mayor,
kiparkness,
Deputy
city
manager,
we
do
have
an
early
consideration
form
and
this
issue
is
an
issue.
That's
facing
many
cities,
Across
the
Nation.
So
there's
actually
a
lot
of
good
work
that
we
can
draw
on,
and
staff
is
recommended
folding.
This
work
into
the
housing,
Catalyst
work
plan
and
therefore
it
would
be
a
green
light.
B
Thank
you,
councilman
Brothers,
yeah,.
C
C
C
D
All
right
play
Beekman
here:
Captain
Hedges
Reggie
the
riot
act
and
was
pretty
disgusted
with
how
you
guys
are
working
on
downtown
building
policies.
I
hope
on
that
previous
item,
that
you
really
work
towards
real,
affordable
housing
ideas
for
such
an
item.
Thank
you.
I've
spoken
often,
there
can
be
incredibly
organized,
well-structured
good
ways.
D
If
you
have
noticed
local
law
enforcement
agencies
and
major
California
cities
at
this
time
are
now
seriously
talking
about
in
open
public
meetings
about
the
Practical
good
purposes
of
armed
robots
and
that
this
past
summer
a
local
California
law
enforcement
agencies
have
been
have
had
an
incredibly
difficult
time
to
describe
how
many
new
and
current
aoprs
they
have
to
myself.
It
has
been
an
obvious
sign.
They
want
to
be
more
open
and
accountable
to
the
public
with
their
technology
tools,
but
simply
do
not
know
how
to
better
work
in
these
good
terms.
D
L
From
the
Horseshoe,
the
Fifth
Amendment
provides
that
private
property
cannot
be
taken
by
the
government
without
just
compensation
was
not
Spanish.
The
language
of
my
mother
and
ancestors,
her
private
property,
did
not
San
Jose
in
the
Alum
Rock
School
District
teacher
by
force
and
fear
that
it
was
a
shameful
thing
worthy
of
humiliation
and
Punishment
to
be
Mexican
and
to
speak.
Spanish
in
school,
San
Jose
took
something
from
me
that
was
mine.
The
language
of
my
mother
and
my
ancestors.
L
Was
this
violent
to
do
this
to
both
my
mother
and
myself?
Am
I
not
confronted
daily
with
the
reality
that
the
United
States
government,
County
of
Santa
Clara
and
the
city
of
San
Jose,
depriving
of
something
private
that
I
had
a
constitutionally
protected
right
to
possess?
Is
this
not
violence
towards
the
tens
of
thousands
of
Chicanos
who
grew
up,
not
speaking
Spanish?
Where
is
my
just
compensation
for
taking
something
as
fundamental
as
language
from
the
Chicano
San
Jose
redlined,
the
Mexicans
stripping
him
of
ancestral
wealth.
