A
B
E
All
right
good
afternoon,
vice
mayor
and
council,
thank
you
for
having
this
time
for
us
to
speak,
and
the
item
that
I'm
talking
about
is
that
whole
issue
with
our
the
columbus
park
and
our
issues
with
homelessness,
and
you
know
issues
of
of
that
and
the
issue
that
we're
looking
at
is
that
we
need
to.
We
have
to
re-house
these
people,
it's,
I
guess,
a
federal
law
or
whatever
it
is
supreme
court
decision
that
we
have
to
do
that.
E
So
we
have
an
urgency
to
do
that
and
on
top
of
it,
I'm
very
supportive
of
of
of
growing
food
in
that
area,
and
one
of
the
issues
that
my
husband
mentioned
is
that
we
could
have
solar
panels
over
the
whole
40
acres
and
the
solar
panels
could
allow
light
in.
So
we
could
grow
food,
and
so
that
actually
would
protect
the
birds
mostly
from
getting
into
the
food,
and
maybe
they
would
stay
away.
E
You
know
how
many
times
we
have
property
owners
willing
to
sell
and
it's
a
third
of
an
acre
and
what
the
idea
is
is
that
we
would
build
a
school
for
the
for
the
home
arts
and
we
would
have
30
35
homeless
people
that
would
apply
for
this
school
and
to
live
in
this.
This
building
with
teachers,
and
so
it
would
be
35
teachers
and
35,
and
we
have
three
buildings
to
do
that
and
it
would
be
the
buildings,
would
all
be
fossil
fuel
free
that
we
would
build
them.
E
You
know
to
do
that
and
then,
on
top
of
it
they
would
be
learning
to
live
fossil
fuel
free
and
they
would
it
would
be
providing
a
community
garden
there,
and
so
it'd
be
job
training
for
them
to
grow
food
and
then
they'd
learning
to
live
without
fossil
fuels
without
waste
which
is
within,
which
is
processing
our
food.
So
we
we
can
our
own
foods
things
like
that.
We
learned
to
be
vegan.
E
F
This
is
sarah
armstrong.
I
represent
americans
for
safe
access
and
I'm
calling
in
today
to
talk
about
the
october
26
agenda
item
which
would
stop
medical
cannabis
patients
from
being
able
to
use
cannabis
in
their
homes,
because
the
proposed
ordinance
would
outlet
outlaw
it.
This
is
a
matter
of
grave
concern,
as
you
can
imagine,
because
per
state
law,
medical
cannabis
patients
cannot
medicate
in
public
anywhere.
F
Therefore,
if
you
outlaw
the
ability
of
them
to
medicate
in
their
homes,
you
have
destroyed
safe
access
for
the
sick
and
dying
the
compassionate
use.
Ass
act
of
1996
is
still
in
war,
and
it
mandated
that
seriously
ill
californians
have
a
right
to
obtain
and
use
medical
marijuana
for
medical
purposes
and
that
they
should
not
be
subject
to
criminal
prostitution
or
sanctions.
As
a
result
of
this
use,
it's
still
good
law.
F
Therefore,
we
our
organization,
would
ask
that
you
consult
with
your
legal
advisors
and
perhaps
think
about
the
implications
of
destroying
safe
access
for
people
who
are
terminally
ill
people
who
are
fighting
stage.
Four
cancer
should
not
have
to
face
eviction
when
they
could
easily
work
with
the
landlord
to
find
solutions
that
would
allow
them
to
meditate
without
inconveniencing
other
tenants.
F
G
Good
afternoon,
council
members
sean
kelly
rai.
I
just
want
to
speak
about
item
7.2
on
the
october
26th
agenda
smoke-free
housing.
Essentially
it's
a
smoke.
It's
a
de
facto
ban
on
cannabis
use
for
san
jose
residents,
especially
those
in
multi-family
unit
dwellings
and
especially
those
that
are
lower
income.
G
What
sarah
said
regarding
prop
215
also
allows
a
private
use
of
medical
cannabis
and
is
protected
under
california's
medical
marijuana
law.
Scientific
evidence
is
also
clear
that
cannabis
does
not
present
a
secondhand
smoke
hazard
like
tobacco.
This
is
not
a
statement
I'm
making
I'm
not
a
doctor,
but
I
can
send
you
a
letter
from
ucsf
expert,
dr
donald
abrams.
Unlike
tobacco,
not
a
single
study
has
found
secondhand
cannabis
smoke
or
vaping
to
be
harmful
to
human
health.
G
Finally,
as
the
law
center
had
mentioned
this,
this
ordinance
is
unfortunately
going
to
disproportionately
affect
people
of
lower
income
and
minority
residents.
The
silicon
valley
law
alliance
foundation-
pardon
me
has
mentioned
this
in
their
letter
and
then
I'd
also
spoken
with
and
also
dr
armeline
from
the
san
jose
human
rights
institute,
has
submitted
a
letter
to
this
effect.
G
H
Hi
claire
beekman
here
happy
rules
in
open
government
day,
there's
about
three
or
four
items
on
this
agenda:
that
of
interest
to
myself.
One
is
they're
kind
of
related,
actually
start
off.
First
2.16
is
about
again
about
smartwave
technology.
This
item
was
on
the
consent
calendar
last
week.
I
don't
quite
know
why
it's
here
again,
but
you
know
if
it's
if
it's
indica
indicative
of
anything,
you
know
good
luck.
H
There
is
parking,
tech
issues,
mobility,
tech
issues
for
the
downtown
area,
also
2.12
and
2.14
that
you
know
you
just
approved
last
week
you
know
a
whole
bunch
of
funding.
You
know,
including
you
know,
east
side
things
and
for
downtown
wi-fi
projects
which
indicates
to
myself
that
you
know
you're
building
up
this
mobile
mobility
future,
that's
going
to
take
a
lot
of
geo-fencing
issues
and
that's
a
lot
of
data
collection
and
that's
a
lot
of
issues
around
you
know
open
public
policies
that
need
to
be
talked
about.
H
It's
not
just
privacy
policies
that
protect
people
is
open.
Public
policies
that
we
know
the
rules
of
the
road
of
what
are
good
practices
for
all
of
us
of
a
community.
We
can
all
ask
about
good
luck
in
how
to
make
these
things
open
and
transparent
and
accountable
and
yeah
just
to
bring
that
up.
It's
my
job
here.
Basically,
one
more
item
is
7.1
about
encampment
issues.
H
It
was
a
real,
tough
meeting
yesterday.
Good
luck,
how
we
can
talk
about
these
things
and
try
to
give
it
a
good
positive
idea
to
it,
I'm
really
into
how
we
can
possibly
talk
about
small
encampments
in
local
neighborhoods
government,
sponsored
encampments,
good
luck
to
local
neighborhood
persons
who
can
learn
how
to
talk
about
these
issues
well
and
and
want
to
have
dialogue
about
it.
Thank
you.
I
I
am
the
owner
of
the
project,
one
two
one
two
and
one
two,
two
four
going
to
say:
boulevard
san
jose
we've
been
this
project
for
since
june
of
2019,
we
went
to
extensive
meeting
extensive
studies
and
we're
also
dedicating
one
complete
lane
to
the
winchester
world
war,
making
it
three
lanes
instead
of
two
and
all
the
studies
were
done
and
completed
about
two
months
ago,
two
months
plus
the
staff
report
came
out
about
10
days
ago,
which
there's
no
difference,
no
surprises
from
what
the
all
these
studies
were.
We
have
a.
I
We
are
in
the
contract,
with
a
buyer,
who's
doing
1031
exchange
building
a
hotel.
The
exchange
expires
on
november
1st
and
they're
very
serious
about
my
project,
and
this
is
a
very,
very
tough
market
for
hotels.
This
is
cost
about
45
to
50
million
dollars
to
commit
this
project.
I
was
advised
that
there
are
a
number
of
wonderful
neighbors,
which
I
respect,
dearly
that
they're
asking
delays
the
delay.
It
means
I
would
lose
this
potential,
not
potential
this
buyer.
I
So
I
urge
the
city
council
that
do
not
change
our
meeting
on
26th.
Please
hold
on
to
the
26th
meeting.
All
the
studies
were
available.
It's
been
two
months.
The
staff
report
is
just
pretty
much
highlight
what
the
studies
were.
No
surprises,
nothing
was
added
again.
We
make
the
city
of
san
jose,
do
not
change
the
26
because
it
would
put
you
it
would
kill
my
contract
with
this
developer.
J
Okay,
great
hi.
Thank
you.
My
name
is
jackie
subeck.
I
am
a
cannabis
advocate
head
of
the
california
cannabis
consumption
coalition,
a
resident
of
west
hollywood
and
I'm
also
an
owner
of
one
of
the
west
hollywood
licensed
cannabis,
consumption
lounges,
as
well
as
a
regular
cannabis
smoker
at
home.
I'm
speaking
today
on
against
item
agenda
7.2
from
october
26
regarding
smoke-free
housing,
specifically
the
portion
that
pertains
to
banning
cannabis
smoke
inside
households.
J
The
west
hollywood
city
council
overwhelmingly
voted
to
remove
cannabis
completely
from
the
equation,
amend
the
ordinance
as
it
relates
to
tobacco
and
then
only
on
an
as
needed
basis.
Add
cannabis
back
in
specifically,
as
it
relates
to
banning
all
smoke
from
indoor
common
areas
inside
multi-uh
unit,
family
dwellings,
you've
heard
about
our
expert
legal
opinion
from
tamar
todd,
one
of
the
co-authors
of
prop
64,
who
clearly
outlined
the
original
intent
of
that
law,
was
to
prohibit
cannabis
smoking
in
public,
not
in
private.
J
B
K
Oh
hi,
this
is
gail
morman
and
thank
you
for
letting
me
speak
by
mayor
jones
and
committee
we'd
like
to
make
a
formal
request
for
a
four-week
delay
in
the
city
council,
hearing
for
the
c19-031
and
sp20-016
the
conforming
rezoning
and
special
use
permit
for
the
property
located
at
1212,
south
winchester
boulevard,
which
is
the
winchester
hotel
proposal
on
may
26th.
1109
pages
of
reports
and
documents
were
made
public.
K
K
K
A
A
In
short,
there
are
specific
considerations
that
need
to
be
made
as
it
relates
to
cannabis
before
making
such
a
carte
blanche
de
facto
ban
on
smoking.
Overall,
there
are
equity
issues.
There
are
logistic
issues.
There
are
issues
around
scientific
research
as
brought
up
previously
as
such.
We
we
recommend
that
that
this
item
be
reconsidered
and
when
reconsidered
cannabis
be
carved
out
or
otherwise
left
out
of
such
an
ordinance
thanks.
So
much.
L
So
I
do
think,
there's
there's
real
concern
there.
I
I
would
have
wanted
to
see
maybe
some
more
analysis
on
that
and
why
we're
not
recommending
that
cannabis
be
excluded.
What
I'm
seeing
here
is
that
it
talks
about
it's
talking
about
other
cities
that
have
recently
adopted
in
santa
clara
county.
That
sort
of
just
did
an
all-inclusive,
but
I
don't
really
see
any
other
justification
as
to
why-
and
I
know
there
were
a
couple
cities
that
actually,
as
we
heard
today
like
west
hollywood,
that
actually
did
exclude
it.
L
M
N
J
A
Thanks
councilmember
yeah,
obviously,
there's
been
a
number
of
different
conversations
and
we've
been
working
closely
with
many
of
the
advocacy
groups
around
this
issue.
I
think
we've
been
looking
at
other
cities
and
how
they'd
approach
this
work,
and
and
certainly
san
francisco
and
there'd,
been
some
questions
around
how
they'd
thought
about
and
presented
their
work
related
to
the
exclusion
of
cannabis
from
the
ordinance.
A
I
think
you
know:
we've
not
been
looking
at
west
hollywood
as
closely
and
so
san
francisco
in
their
approach.
Actually,
they
excluded
cannabis
through
their
first
hearing
of
the
ordinance,
but
then
it
got
held
up
in
process
and
they
never
actually
moved
forward
with
their
approval,
but
west
hollywood
did
exclude
it
and
obviously,
there's
been
additional
information
that
we've
received
around
this
issue
that
we're
now
ultimately
just
taking
a
look
at
to
understand
the
implications
of
that.
I
think.
A
L
A
So
there's
been
additional
outreach
with
both
the
advocacy
groups
and
with
property
owners
around
this,
and
certainly
getting
additional
technical
information
from
the
consultant
with
the
county
who's
been
supporting
us
on
this
work.
To
do
some
of
that
analysis,
I
think
the
the
sort
of
more
recent
addition
to
that
is
the
information
regarding
west
hollywood,
which
we
were
we
weren't
aware
of
until
sort
of
last
couple
of
days
really.
A
L
All
right
yeah,
I
think
especially
it
sounds
like
you-
are
thinking
of
a
supplemental
memo
which
we
don't
have
right
now.
So
in
essence,
I'm
looking
at
kind
of
what
I
looked
at
before
previously
right,
I'm
not
necessarily
getting
any
new
info
and
I'm
concerned
with
that,
and
I
would
prefer
that
we
actually
see
something
like
that:
supplemental
first
before
we
agendize
it
for
the
council
discussion.
L
L
You
know
section
of
it
that
I'm
concerned
with,
but
I
I'm
you
know
without
seeing
your
supplemental.
I
don't
know
if
you
know,
if
that's
the
case,
that
it
that
it
would
need
to
go
all
the
way
back
to
committee,
or
maybe
we
just
have
a
a
change
of
of
heart
of
the
recommendation
and
we
end
up
suggesting
something
different
and-
and
maybe
that
would
be
sufficient
for
me,
but
I
don't
know
about
my
colleagues
either.
L
I
would
be
concerned
with
keeping
this
on
the
agenda
for
for
next
week,
so
my
request,
wouldn't
necessarily
be
that
it
has
to
go
back
to
committee,
although
I
wouldn't
be.
You
know
against
that,
if,
if
staff
felt
that
was
beneficial
or
if
my
colleagues
felt
maybe
that
was
beneficial,
I
you
know
I'm
I'm
up
in
the
air
on
that.
I
think
at
least
it
should
not
be
on
the
agenda
next
week.
L
I'd
like
to
see
that
supplemental
first
and
then
maybe
we
can
re-agendize
it
for
a
future
meeting
or
even
sending
it
back
to
committee.
But
at
least
I'd
like
to
take
this
off
of
the
agenda
for
next
week.
For
now
and
so
I'll
make
a
motion
if
we
could
to
approve
the
agenda
for
next
week,
including
the
ad
sheet
but
dropping
item
7.2.
E
O
Yes,
thank
you
and
I
can't
figure
out
why
my
camera's,
not
working
but
I'll,
only
be
here
on
audio,
so
just
a
little
background
also
for
kentucky
problems.
It
was
my.
It
was
my
request
to
defer
the
item
originally
because
our
office
felt
that
we
needed
to
do
our
research,
since
we
were
trying
to
put
together
a
memo
on
some
things
here,
and
there
was
there's
a
lot
of
issues
beyond
the
cannabis
issue
that
we
wanted
to
have
addressed.
O
Our
office
has
spent
a
lot
of
time
doing
a
lot
of
that
research
and
feels
better
that
we
understand
some
of
those
things
and
we're
ready
to
write
a
memo
on
that
this
week.
I
think
that
we
we
have
we're
working.
We've
been
working
together
with
some
others
on
the
cannabis
issue
and
I
think,
through
a
memo,
whether
it's
a
supplemental
memo
that
chris
just
mentioned
or
a
memo
that
we
were
going
to
work
on
in
our
office,
we
could
we
could
resolve
that
issue
through
a
memo
by
next
week.
O
O
O
L
Yeah,
I
would
be
more
comfortable,
then,
if
it
stayed
together
as
a
package
and
if
it
goes
back
to
nsc
first
to
further
discuss.
You
know
that
item
of
eviction
that
you're
concerned
about,
I
would
agree,
that's
a
valid
concern,
but
also
for
me,
the
the
issue
of
of
cannabis,
and
I
would
say
I
appreciate
you're
working
on
something.
O
O
B
B
The
developer
made
statements
that
you
know
he
has
a
deadline
or
a
firm
timeline
in
terms
of
getting
something
done
or
his
opportunities
are
going
to
go
away.
This
is
brand
new
information
to
me.
We've
made
you
know
numerous
attempts
to
have
a
clear
line
of
communication
with
this
individual
and
and
we
haven't
had
much
success.
So
it's
not
surprising
that
I
would
get
that
information.
B
A
L
A
E
Thank
you
vice
mayor
and
city
council
members,
honorary
honorable
city,
council
members
and
vice
mayor
for
this
opportunity.
So
I
was
talking
about
that.
The
development
at
the
corner
of
santa
clara
and
almaden
boulevard
and
I've
always
looked
at
that
because
of
the
gorgeous
mural
of
the
cornucopia
and
the
female.
That's
there,
and
just
beautiful
and
and
and
the
issue
of
the
fact
that
it
was
an
empty
lot
and
my
husband
is
a
biologist
and
climate
scientist.
E
Looking
at
saying
to
build
resiliency
into
our
community,
we
needed
to
any
open
land
should
become
food
production,
and
I-
and
that
was
the
beauty
of
that
land.
It
should
become
that
and
yet
we're
planning
a
hotel,
another
hotel,
and
you
know-
and
it's
it's
the
same
issues
that
the
whole
community
is
up
in
arms
about,
and
I
appreciate
the
other
issue
with
the
one
on
winchester,
because
that's
not
the
way
we
should
be
going
when
we
have
so
many
crises
that
we're
we're
experiencing
and
the
housing
crisis.
E
Our
our
climate
crisis
and
and
the
irony
is
that
the
state
of
california
is
giving
us
money
to
turn
our
our
hotels
into
housing
and
yet
we're
going
ahead
and-
and
you
know
what
you
know,
the
expression
is,
you
know
when
you're
doing
something
wrong,
you
don't
keep
doing
it
and
if
you
know
you're
in
a
hole,
you
don't
keep
digging
and
it's
the
same
thing.
We
don't
need
hotels,
we
need
housing,
and
so
this
is
this
is
where
we
need
to
move
forward
and
and
that's
what
the
climate
scientists
are
saying.
E
We
need
to
have
a
you
know,
decarbonization
of
our
economy,
of
our
transportation,
of
our
industry
and
of
our
agriculture,
and
that's
where
we
have
to
build.
You
know
we
shouldn't
be
supporting
hotels,
we
need
to
be
staying
home,
we
have
the
beautiful
technology
of
the
internet
that
we
can
connect
and
we
can
keep.
You
know
our
so-called
economy
going
with
with
our
technology.
We've
proved
it
to
ourselves,
and
yet
we,
you
know,
keep
going
into.
You
know
digging
into
deeper
into
the
hole
which
is
our
our
fossil
fuel
use,
which
has
to
stop.
H
All
right,
thank
you.
Bluebeekman
here
for
item
3.3,
covid
pandemic
response
and
community
economic
recovery,
budget
adjustment,
ideas,
kind
of
along
the
lines
of
what
tesla
was
saying
and
that
you
know
in
next
week's
agenda.
Also,
you
have
item
3.3
about
capital,
improvement,
project
ideas,
this
this
item
about
covid
responses
and
budget
adjustments.
H
You
know
good
luck.
It
talks
about
the
american
rescue
plan
funds,
emergency
reserve
funding.
I
hope
you
know
it's
been
an
important
point
in
myself
to
just
simply
bring
out
the
concept
that
I
hope
we
can
talk
about.
These
state
and
federal
funding
patterns
that
are
very
large
and
have
become
more
easy
and
accessible
for
local
governments
in
this
era
of
cobid
and
to
learn
how
to
talk
about
these
funding
programs
and
these
subsidy
programs
with
community
and
for
community
themselves
to
be
to
grow
more
comfortable
with
this
subject
matter.
H
It's
important
and
you
know
it's
it's
important
to
there's
an
openness
to
this
sort
of
conversation
and
we
learn
to
not
go
afraid
of
it
and
and
it's
from
there
that
I
think
we
can
make
responsible
decisions,
decisions
needed
for
specific
projects
and
and
how,
like
with
housing
issues.
You
know,
there's
a
lot
of
things
we
already
do
well,
how
can
subsidies
help?
You
know
these
sort
of
things,
and
so
good
luck?
H
How
we
can
do
that
at
this
time
and
just
have
you
know,
open
good
conversations
with
all
parts
of
ourselves
as
a
community,
and
it
can
be
easier
for
government
to
explain
these
things
to
our
public
and
our
public
can
be
more
understanding
how
to
offer
conversation
about
the
subject
matter.
Good
luck!
Thank
you.
M
Vice
mayor
very
quickly,
and
I'm
going
to
ask
gloria
to
jump
in
if
I
mess
this
up.
But
if
I
could
ask
the
rules
committee
to
reconsider
the
vote
on
october
28th
if
you
would
still
like,
but
with
the
deferral
of
10.2,
we
still
have
an
evening
meeting
with
one
land.
Use.
Consent
item
that
if
you
could
read
that
notice
for
130
to
happen
with
consent,
because
it
is
a
consent.
Item
you'd
be
able
to
cancel
the
night
meeting.
M
B
E
E
E
The
the
real
the
most
important
job
is
raising
our
children
and
that
you
know
it's
it's
that
outsourcing
of
the
care
that
you
know
provides
the
potential
for
abuse,
and
so
we
need
that
you
know,
connect
connection
to
our
children
and
to
support
that
as
a
society
going
forward
and
so
and
then
that's
where
so
much
of
our
fossil
fuel
use
and
our
waste
has
come
is
when
you
look
at
the
the
chart
are:
is
that
1970s
when
women
went
to
work?
That's
when
the
fossil
fuel
went
up?
E
B
H
Hi,
thank
you
gregory
quinn
here.
Thank
you
for
this
item.
It's
my
understanding.
You
know
this.
This
is
work
of
a
you
know.
This
is
a
whole
county
effort
and
you
know
thank
you
to
this
to
these
good
efforts.
I
know
that
you
know
the
work
of
council
person
perales
at
this
time
is
trying
to
bring
around
ideas
of
workplace
issues
and
and
what
can
be
good
counseling
services
for
for
workplace
issues.
H
D
Thank
you
chair.
I
just
wanted
to
provide
a
little
bit
of
perspective
on
on
this
joint
meeting.
This
is,
I,
I
believe,
it's
our
fourth
joint
meeting
around
gender-based
violence
and
this
time
around.
We
are
specifically
talking
about
a
couple
of
issues.
One
is
our
safe
exams
are
sexual
assault,
forensic
exams
and
those
protocols,
and
the
second
item
is
also
talking
about
what
we
might
or
what
our
society
might
experience.
D
As
children
are
going
back
to
in-person
learning
and
now
that
they
have
a
trusting
adult
in
their
lives,
they
might
reveal
that
they
have
suffered
child
abuse
during
the
pandemic,
and
so
how
do
we
prioritize
and
how
do
we?
How?
What
is
the
strategy
to
ensure
that
those
kinds
of
reports
don't
go
to
the
bottom
of
the
queue
when
we
have
other
things
and
thinly?
C
H
Hi,
thank
you
bob
beekman.
Here
I
have
a
letter.
It
was
my
first
attempt
to
write
about
the
the
the
vaccine
process
and
how
we
can
talk
about
it.
This
fall.
I
I,
I
think
my
words
have
matured
a
bit
since
I
first
wrote
this
letter
and
I
just
want
to
thank
yourselves
for
your
patience
and
and
what
I'm
I'm
trying
to
work
on
something
very
in
decent
terms,
and
I
don't
want
to
upset
things
I
just
want
to
hopefully
offer
a
way
that
we
can
create
a
dialogue.
H
If
it
can
be
helpful,
you
know
not
everything
about.
It
will
be
helpful,
but
I'm
hoping
some
of
it
can
be,
and
I
guess
that's
the
key
to
what
how
I'm
writing
on
this
subject
at
this
time
and
some
of
my
words
got
cut
off
yesterday
at
I
think
3.4
in
talking
about
this
item.
I
spoke
about
southwest
pilots
and
you
know
they
weren't
they
they
had
possibly
a
walkout
a
few
weeks
ago.
H
You
know
about
the
vaccine
mandate
not
to
protest
the
vaccine
mandate,
but
just
in
how
to
talk
about
it
with
with
the
negotiation
process
they're
in
and
that's
all
I'm
trying
to
consider
is:
how
can
we
talk
about
this
subject?
How
can
it
be
open,
subject
matter
and
for
yourselves
to
be
able
to
work
on
that
and
come
back
to
the
community
with
new
ideas?
This
fall
interesting
ways
to
talk
about
it.
H
With
my
remaining
time,
you
know,
there's
letters
about
the
vista
montana
things.
I
really
hope
these
these
two.
This
is
als.
All
the
sides
can
work
these
things
out
and
be
negotiative,
and
the
ideas
of
a
of
a
notification
process
can
really
set
a
course
for
the
rest
of
the
city
for
the
rest
of
our
days.
How
we
can
talk
about
these
sort
of
things
in
the
future.
Thank
you.
B
E
And
you
know
I
just
wanted
to
comment
about
the
process
for
the
public
to
understand
that
we
do
have
a
chance
to
communicate
when
we
send
letters-
and
I
haven't
really
checked-
I
I
sent
a
letter
to-
I
think
when
you
send
it
to
the
city
clerk
is
when
it
gets
put
into
this
record.
So
I
have
been
sending
my
letters
and
the
letter
that
I
sent
and
I'll
quickly
talk
about
the
other
ones
that
I
know
blair
mentioned
just
in
case
mine,
isn't
in.
A
E
We
need
to
know
who's
involved
with
that,
and
then
the
issue
is
or
not
involved
is
the
issue
so
going
forward
for
the
future,
but
that
there's
a
record
for
the
future
generations
is
what
I'm
saying,
and
so
anyway,
the
other
issue
that
blair
is
bringing
up
about
the
vaccine.
I
you
know,
I've
always
been
saying
is
that
the
vaccine,
you
know,
is
just
a
band-aid
on
a
on
a
bigger
problem
and
the
thing
is:
we
need
to
really
vaccinate
ourselves
from
capitalism
and
consumerism,
and
that
really
is
work.
Staying
at
home.
E
B
B
E
E
E
You,
okay,
good!
Thank
you!
Sweetie
yeah,
I'm
just
saying
all
of
our
events
need
to
be
fossil
fuel
free,
that's
something
we
need
to
really
promote
in
our
resiliency
programs
and
that
we
don't
drive
to
work.
We
don't
drive
to
events,
we
don't
that!
That's
what
we
have
to
have
and
that's
why
we
need
to
really
be
realigning
measure
b
to
create
bikeable
and
walkable
communities.
E
That
needs
to
be
our
highest
priority
because
that's
where
people
don't
want
to
bicycle
because
they
don't
feel
safe,
and
we
need
to
put
all
of
our
resources
into
that
and
that's
where
I've
been
complaining
about
why
I
can't
fix
a
bike
lane,
that's
very
dangerous,
that
we
don't
have
a
bike
lane.
That's
what
I'm
saying!
We
don't
have
it
and
yet
we're
not
putting
our
resources
where
our
mouth
is:
we're
not
really
doing
vision,
zero
and
the
way
we
get
vision.
Zeros
more
of
us
are
off
the
road.
E
E
H
Thank
you.
Thank
you
that
you
saw
me.
Thank
you
very
much
yeah.
I
wanted
to
quickly
comment
on
the
filipino
flag,
raising
or
filipino
history
month
and
flag,
raising
ceremony,
a
quick
few
thoughts
from
tessa's
words
thank
you
and
that
we
do
need
to
be
really
considering
the
subcommission
club
committee
process,
because
there's
gonna
be
three
important
san
jose
commissions
coming
up
in
the
next
six
months.
A
good
subcommittee
process,
that's
open
to
the
public
is,
is
helpful.
H
H
Actually,
I
know
that
council
person
uranus
used
to
work
on
these
issues
more
with
the
filipino
community
and
and
just
to
thank
you
that
you
know
for
for
their
work
and
efforts,
because
we're
really
trying
to
address
a
a
real
long
time
problem
of
of
of
the
the
island
of
the
philippines
in
their
issues
of
how
they
go
about
their
their
legal
matters
with
with
with
criminality
issues
and
what
and
how
they
define
what
is
criminality
and
their?
I
don't
know
justice
that
they
impose.
H
It's
really
strong
and
it's
not.
It
doesn't
use
the
court
system
very
well
sometimes,
and
we're
trying
to
note
this
in
this
country
and
really
help
out
to
bring
them
around
to
a
more
justice
oriented
way
in
deciding
their
issues
so
to
have
this
awareness
and
things
this
month.
Good
luck!
How
we
can
work
on
these
issues.
Thank
you.
A
B
H
B
E
Want
to
say
that
I
truly
appreciate
you
as
an
honorable
vice
mayor,
because
you're
so
good
at
handling
these
meetings
and
the
public.
So
thank
you
for
that.
You
truly
are
honorable,
okay,
sweetie,
so
yeah
the
retroactive
raffle
tickets-
okay,
yes!
Well,
I'm
sure
it's
very
consumption,
oriented
and
and
all
the
plastic
and
junk
and
raffle
items
and
consumer
goods-
and
you
know
you
know
that
we
pay
for
as
our
taxpayers,
you
know,
taxes
we
need
to.
You
know
you
know,
stop,
you
know,
stop
consuming,
stop
buying
and
stop.
E
You
know
that
that
really
needs
to
be
our
our
our
education
as
we
go
forward
and
so
having
raffle
items
of
what
are
those
raffle
items
and
where,
where
what
is
the
supply
chain
and
where,
where
did
they
come
from?
And
you
know
everything
to
look
at
you
know
what
are
we
giving
people,
what
what
do
people
need
really
as
their
raffle
items
and
and
what
is
it
that
we
need?
You
know
we
need
our
basic
needs
met
and
we're
not
we're
not
addressing
that
we're
not
looking
at.
E
You
know
how
to
save
the
people
and
and
what
what
is
it,
that's
going
to
help
us
to
go
forward
as
a
species,
and
it's
not
some
little
trinket
of
of
of
of
something
that
you
might
be
giving
as
a
raffle.
So
you
know
what
is
it
that
we
really
need?
We
need
to
most
probably
be
giving
food.
You
know
we
should
be
that's
how
it
should
be.
E
It
should
be
vegetables
and
fruits,
and
those
type
of
things
that
you
know
we
give
as
we
support
and
how
you
know
we
and,
and
or
you
know
what
I
think
would
be
great
is
seeds.
You
know
to
give
somebody
seeds,
so
they
can
grow
food,
that
that
would
be
the
kind
of
gifts
we
should
give
them,
or
you
know,
maybe
a
class
for
them
to
learn
how
to
grow
food.
You
know,
and
so
these
are
the
kind
of
raffles
we
should
be
orienting
ourselves
in
towards
our
survival
versus
our
our
our
decline.
E
P
P
We
want
to
thank
you
and
and
thank
our
council
member
maya
sparser,
especially
for
putting
forward
this
resolution
immediately.
The
u.s
congress
is
debating
the
buildback,
better
infrastructure
bill
and
included
in
that
bill
through
the
through
the
budget
process.
There
is
a
proposal
to
create
a
pathway
for
citizenship
for
11
million,
undocumented
immigrants
nationwide.
P
Domestic
workers,
janitors
construction
workers
across
the
board
are
major
industries
that
depend
on
on
immigrant
labor,
many
of
them
undocumented
immigrants.
In
addition,
immigrants
make
up
a
large
percentage
of
the
consumers
in
san
jose,
as
well
as
taxpayers,
even
if
they're
undocumented,
and
do
not
pay
directly
to
the
irs.
They
pay
sales
taxes,
they
they
pay
rent
and
the
property
owners
that
rent
to
them
pay
into
the
tax
base
in
the
city
of
san
jose.
P
H
H
I
don't
know
what
the
order
is.
Do
we
then
start
to
consider
you
know
actual
border
policy
and
how
and
how
that
whole
process
can
loosen
up
and
then
from
there
how
people,
if
they
do
come
to
this
country,
for
jobs,
are
not
exploited
and
those
are
all
important
concepts.
I'd
like
to
work
on
and
yeah.
This
is
really
hopeful
stuff,
and
I'm
very
thank
you
for
for
being
here,
and
this
is
it's
nice
to
see
our
our
future
again
and
what
our
lives
are
again,
and
so
thank
you
for
this.
E
E
Because
that's
what
we
need
to
start
doing
and
they
know
how
to
do
that,
and
we
need
to
do
that
and
then,
on
top
of
it,
we
need
to
go
back
into
honduras
and
guatemala
and
help
them
to
create
a
a
fossil
fuel
free
infrastructure
so
that
they
can
be
part
of
the
solution
and
maybe,
if
just
maybe
we
can
bring
their
their
those
lands
back
to
be
habitable.
Because
that's
what's
happening
is
that
it's
becoming
you
know
more
uninhabitable
earth
and
that's
where
we
are.
E
The
crises
that
are
coming
to
san
jose,
they
are
they're
saying
a
billion
people
will
be
on
will
be
destabilized
by
2050,
a
billion
that
that's
how
quickly
we're
becoming
an
uninhabitable
earth.
And
so
how
do
we
deal
with
that
in
terms
of
our
immigration?
We
need
to
to
yes
to
take
the
people
in
as
as
climate
refugees
and
and
learn
to
that.
B
Q
Name
is
ariselli,
I
am
with
sciu
usw.
I
am
a
political
organizer
and
I
do
want
to
thank
councilmember
baez
barca
for
proposing
this.
This
immigration
resolution.
As
we
know
the
nation,
is
home
to
11
million
undocumented
folks.
Many
of
them
do
reside
in
san
jose
california,
and
we
throughout
the
pandemic
we
depended
on
depended
on
them
to
keep
the
economy
going.
Many
of
them
are
farm
workers
that
kept
food
on
the
table
because
they
didn't
have
the
privilege
to
stay
at
to
stay
at
home
and
work
from
home.
Q
Many
of
them
are
janitors
that
were
still
cleaning
the
facebook
buildings.
Google
buildings
and
also
many
of
them
were
construction
workers
that
continue
to
build
all
these
new
developments
that
are
that
are
being
built
in
san
jose.
California,
and,
like
I
said
many
of
these
essential
workers,
weren't
privileged
enough
to
work
from
home,
to
get
stimulus,
money
to
collect
unemployment
because
of
their
status,
and
I
think
it
is
owed
to
them
that
congress
passes
an
immigration
reform
because
they
contribute
to
to
the
economy.
Q
C
We
mentioned
in
the
memo
that
this,
what
we're
doing
as
a
country
is,
we
have
a
once
in
a
generation
opportunity
to
act
to
create
a
pathway
for
a
pathway
to
citizenship
for
11
million
undocumented
immigrants
in
our
country,
including
the
25
000
here
in
san
jose.
Here's
another
statistic:
one
in
six
of
california's
children
have
at
least
one
undocumented
parent,
so
we
need
a
pathway
to
citizenship.
C
So
many
of
them
have
worked
tirelessly
during
the
pandemic,
but
actually
the
entire
time
they're.
Here
they
keep
our
society
going
and
we
owe
them
the
opportunity
to
to
have
a
pathway
to
citizenship
while
we're
talking
about
covet.
I
wanted
to
remind
folks
that
when
you
look
at
that
map
that
we've
looked
at
city
council
so
many
times,
you
know
it's.
C
It's
no
coincidence
that
the
essential
workers,
the
high
immigrant
population,
that
we
have
as
a
city
that
the
same
five
east
side
zip
codes,
have
faced
the
worst
of
the
public
health
crisis.
Nine,
five,
one,
two,
two,
nine
five,
one,
one,
six,
nine
five,
one,
two,
seven,
nine
five
one,
two
one
and
nine
five
one
one
one
are
also
five
of
the
largest
zip
codes.
Sorry,
five
of
our
zip
codes
with
the
largest
immigrant
communities.
C
C
B
M
There
is
vice
mayor
and
that's
green.
This
is
consistent
with
past
policies
that
the
mayor
and
council
have
directed
us
and
actions
that
the
office
of
racial
equity
and
intergovernmental
relations
program
have
taken
over
the
last
several
years
and
appreciate
the
memorandum
from
council
members
sparza.
R
D
D
Even
social
emotional
is
on
the
table.
Now
it's
it's
part
of
what
how
we
need
to
recover,
but
this
this
immigration
piece
is
key
in
showing
future
administrations
how
to
fold
in
the
folks
who
are
making
america
run,
and-
and
so
I
just
wanted
to
say,
thank
you
and
I
I
was
also
hoping
to
make
that
motion.
But
thank
you,
councilmember
cullen,
you
you,
you
got,
you
got
to
it
so
anyways.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Councilmember
esparza.
L
Yeah,
thank
you
as
well
to
council
member
esparza
for
bringing
this
forward.
I
think
this
really
is
a
tremendous
opportunity
that
we
we
have
and
we
want
to
be
able
to
to
send
our
encouragement
to
congress
to
be
able
to
act.
My
or
I
I
was
a
child
of
of
one
of
those
undocumented
immigrants.
Many
many
years
back
and
my
father
went
through
the
process
of
ultimately
being
a
legal,
permanent
resident
and
then
ultimately
becoming
a
citizen
and
as
maya
points
out.
L
These
were
the
individuals
that
overwhelmingly
could
not
do
that,
and
I
think
this
has
been
a
long
time
coming
and
we
don't
want
to
miss
this
opportunity.
So
I
absolutely
support
this
support:
sending
the
strong
message
of
support
from
the
city
of
san
jose
10th
largest
city
in
the
country
over
to
congress.
So
thanks
councilman.
B
Thank
you,
and
also
thank
you,
council.
Member
of
sparser,
too.
I
do
have
a
question
lean.
You
touched
on
this
when
you
were
speaking
to
this.
Sometimes
we'll
have
resolutions
come
before
this
committee
that
we
deem
not
within
the
the
city's
sphere
of
influence
or
is
not
one
of
our
principles
or
various
other
reasons
why
we
choose
to
not
move
them
forward.
M
Absolutely
you
know,
and
I
would
say
I
think
we
handled
this
on
a
case-by-case
basis.
You
know,
for
me
at
least
when
I
used
to
oversee
the
igr
program.
You
know
when
it
affected
our
residents
very
directly
like
like
something
like
this.
Would
that's
very
easy
for
us
to
say
that,
yes,
we
should
step
into
the
arena
and
on
something
like
this,
where
it
is
not
just
fundamentally
that
congress
needs
to
hear
from
large
cities
or
other
large
cities,
but
that
our
voice
matters
on
a
subject.
M
M
A
week
I
believe
we
have
a
resolution.
I
guess
we
did
not
discuss
that
internally,
but
I
would
think
we
could
agendize
this
for
two
or
three
weeks
away,
given
that
the
resolution
is
out
there
and
if
the
bill
moves
more
swiftly
than
that,
this
is
already
encompasses
encompassed
in
our
legislative
guiding
principles
that
the
council
has
approved.
So
the
igr
team,
as
well
as
office
of
racial
equity
team,
have
the
ability
to
take
action
if
congress
moves
more
smoothly.
B
H
A
E
Thank
you.
Well,
you
know
I
was
interested
to
see
how
the
process
goes
and
that
things
bring
are
brought
to
the
rules
committee
directly.
They
don't
necessarily
have
to
go
through
ordinance,
setting
and
things
like
that,
and
what
I'm
also
noticing
is
how
you
know
our
equity,
commission
or
equity
department
has
a
lot
of
impact.
You
know
that
we're
we're
you
know
we
it's
a
million
dollar
department
with
staff
and
everything
and
what
we
really
need
in
relationship
to
this
taxi,
I'm
getting
to
the
point.
E
So
the
taxi
issue
is
a
climate
crisis
action
team
that
has
the
same
kind
of
a
comparable
power
that
our
equity
has.
You
know,
so
we
look
through
these
lenses
and
when
we're
talking
about
the
taxi
issue,
a
lot
of
it
is
in
regards
to
you
know
the
competition
from
the
uber
and
lyft
companies
and
I'm
sure,
there's
issues
that
the
taxi
people
are
trying
to
get.
E
You
know
economic
standing
and
I
think
the
issue
that
I'm
saying
as
we
look
through
at
a
climate
lens
to
our
taxis,
well
their
fossil
fuel
base
and
that's
where
our
transportation
has
to
be
decarbonized
in
order
for
us
to
have
a
they
say
that
we
need
50
reduction
in
the
next
10.
Well,
not
even
10
years
anymore.
E
It's
like
eight
years
to
20
30.,
and
you
know
things
have
gotten
so
much
worse
and
the
tipping
points
are
are
tipping
all
over
the
place
that
we
are,
you
know
very
destabilized
as
a
as
a
species,
and
so
these
these
decisions
that
the
science
is
saying,
50
reduction
in
all
of
our
you
know,
issues
especially
our
transportation,
is
one
of
our
major
ones
that
we
need
to.
You
know
require
that
all
these
vehicles
be
fossil
fuel
free.
E
Now
they
could,
you
know,
be
electric
or
they
could
be
petty
cabs,
or
you
know
things
like
that
that
we,
you
know
the
way
that
they
do
it
with
their
bicycle,
like
downtown
and
and
we'll
say.
Well,
how
do
they
go
far?
Well?
The
thing
is,
we
need
to
stay
home.
We
need
to
not
go
far,
and
so
these
are
the
limitations
of
a
car,
a
decarbonized
society.
You
have
to
start
living
more
hyper
local.
S
Okay,
my
name
is
yum,
I'm
from
green
cab.
I
would
like
to
make
a
recommendation
in
supporting
mayor
locados
and
council
member
paralysis,
memo
and
recommendation,
but
I'll
like
particularly
want
to
ask
council
member
paralyzed
on
recommendation
number
one.
This
is
directed
to
the
staff
instead
of
just
directed
to
the
staff.
If
we
have
a
joint
committee
of
staff
and
industry
members,
we
could
have
come
up
with
a
better
result
for
the
council
to
approve.
We
have
an
experience
in
late
90s
early
2000s.
S
Came
up
with
a
good
recommendation
which
sustains
the
taxi
industry
now,
but
with
the
competition
from
tmc
and
on
the
top
of
that
with
the
covered,
the
taxi
industry
is
it's
a
miracle,
especially
green
car
is
still
in
business.
So
we
need
an
overhaul
of
the
taxi
industry
rules
which
has
been
adopted
in
the
60s.
It
doesn't
fit
this
time
at
all.
So
we
need
a
big
change,
so
I
would
like
one
of
you
to
amend
that
there
should
be
a
joint
committee
of
industry
and
the
staff
to
come
up
with
some
recommendation.
S
All
right
good
afternoon,
leaders
of
the
city,
my
name-
is
shakur
boone,
I'm
representing
the
san
jose
such
drivers
association,
I'm
here
to
support
the
memo
from
the
mayors
and
council
member
raul
perea,
which
is
the
right
thing
to
do
to
save
the
companies
that
they,
you
know
the
insurance
right
now
they
put
on
them.
They
cannot
afford
to
be
double
of
that.
It's
almost
two
hundred
percent,
so
as
the
third
charter
with
the
drivers
believe,
if
the
companies
are
close,
they
were
before
18
companies.
S
S
S
S
A
A
Obviously,
the
most
important
issue
that
we're
discussing
today
has
to
do
with
the
insurance
which,
from
our
understanding,
has
a
november
first
deadline,
and-
and
so
unless
this,
this
committee
and
whatever
the
proper
channels
are
to
move
this
forward
happen
within
the
next
week,
we
likely
would
lose
to
the
two
of
the
three
cap
companies
in
the
city.
So
I'm
asking
you
to
concentrate
on
that.
A
We
would
love
to
get
together
and
discuss
the
other
remaining
issues
and
business
opportunities
that
we
have
that
were
unable
to
take
advantage
of,
but
right
now
the
the
biggest
thing
is
the
insurance
and
or,
of
course,
all
of
us
are
here
and
unified
and
available
to
answer
any
questions
you
may
have.
Thank
you.
H
R
Yeah
there
it
is
san
jose
pd,
keeping
keeping
the
looking
people
down
as
usual,
charging
more
money.
They
don't
charge.
Uber
drivers
do
they,
they
don't
charge
lyft
drivers,
but
san
jose,
pd
man
they're.
They
want
your
money,
because
I've
never
met
an
organization
that
goes
after
people's
money
more
than
san
josep.
They
want
your
tax
dollars.
They
want
to
find
you.
They
want
to
regulate
you
and
take
in
the
money.
R
R
They
should
be
ashamed
of
themselves
of
how
they,
how
they
take
money
from
hard-working
people
when
they
make
these
big
fat
salaries
they
get
to
have
for
the
rest
of
their
life,
including
lifetime
health
insurance
for
them
and
their
partners.
Isn't
that
nice
that
they
get
to
have
that
for
the
rest
of
their
lives.
If
you
ask
me,
san
jose,
pd
equals
glorified
welfare.
R
That's
what
that
department
is
all
about,
and
I
feel
bad
for
these
taxicab
drivers,
because
uber
and
lyft
completely
killed
their
business.
How
do
you
guys
get
off
taxing
and
regulating
the
hell
out
of
them
through
sjpd,
the
worst
police
department
in
the
entire
world?
What
I
call
the
pot
department
or
the
pot
dealers,
because
you
know
they're,
they're,
they're,
making
sure
to
shank
that
money
off
of
the
off
the
drug
deals
I
mean
that's
all
they
seem
to
be
busting.
These
days
is
guys,
would
pot
because
well,
that's
their
competition,
see
see.
R
Sjp
is
like
uber
right
and
the
regular
joe.
The
pot
man
he's
the
regular
taxi
cab
guy
right
it's.
This
is
what
san
jose
pd.
Does
they
like
to
keep
you
down
with
big
smiles
and
mark
marching
in
parades
and
doing
all
you
know
giving
toys
to
kids
but
look
at
what
they
really
do
they're
dirt
bags?
They
should
be
ashamed
of
themselves
of
how
that
how
they
police
this
house.
N
Hi,
yes,
can
everyone
yeah?
Okay?
Everyone
can
hear
me
so
I
just
would
like
to
speak
more
about
the
effects
that
these
regulations
have
on
taxi
companies,
so,
as
it
was
mentioned,
just
to
get
permission
to
operate
to
get
the
permits
through
the
sjpd.
Those
prices
have
doubled,
so
people
who
are
just
to
renew
drivers
who
have
been
working
in
this
field
for
15
20
years
they're,
paying
double
just
to
be
able
to
work,
and
that's
not
without
considering
you
know,
there's
of
monthly
fees
for
taxi
companies
for
like
taxi
stand.
Rentals.
N
These
are
just
so
that
taxi
drivers
can
park
in
certain
areas.
Those
taxi
companies
that
use
that
those
costs
are
divided
within
all
the
taxi
companies
in
the
city
they
used
to
be
16
or
18..
Now
it
just
remains
about
three
or
four,
so
those
costs
are
now
distributed
between
those
four
companies
and
just
I
just
really
want
to
reiterate
how
disastrous
raising
the
insurance
policy
limit
would
be,
because
there's
already
very
few
companies
insurance
companies
who
will
work
with
taxi
companies.
N
So
it's
we're
seeing
it
as
a
250
percent
increase,
but
it
could
truly
be
more
because
companies
who
know
that
there
is
no
other
market
for
us
could
very
well
increase
their
price
increase
their
prices
and
could
really,
if
it's
ten
thousand
or
more
than
ten
thousand
dollars
per
vehicle.
It
just
would
not
be
possible
for
a
company,
especially
a
co-op
like
green
cab,
who
was
fully
sustained
by
dr
by
its
drivers
to
continue
in
operation,
and
that
is
very.
That
would
be
very
difficult.
B
L
So
in
the
early
consideration
form
on
on
being
greenlit,
the
recommendation
states
that
the
police
department
staff
will
research,
research,
industry
standards
and
work
with
the
city,
attorney's
office
staff
to
review
and
respond
to
color
scheme
options.
That's
one
and
then
number
two
in
regards
to
the
media
requirements.
L
I'd
like
to
actually
look
at
something
that
is
making
the
environment
more
fair
and
in
tying
it
more
closely
to
what
tncs
have
as
regulations,
and
so,
while
you're
looking
industry
standards,
I
would
just
say
that
we
should
be
including
both
taxis
and
tncs.
So
that's
my
my
main
concern
there.
I
know
there
was
a
request
from
one
of
the
taxi
drivers
to
have
a
more
of
like
a
joint
body
which
would
include
the
taxi
drivers.
L
My
initial
guess
would
be
that
to
get
to
that
level
of
engagement
that
would
take
significantly
more
staff
time,
but
I'll
I'll
ask
you
to
respond
lee
to
say.
Is
that
something
that
you
think
is
feasible?
Or
am
I
correct
in
thinking
that
if
we
went
to
that
route
that
might
then
change
your
early
consideration
form.
M
L
O
Yeah,
I
just
want
to
thank
you
constantly
polish
and
the
mayor
for
units
forward.
It's
it's
an
issue
that
is
really
important.
I
think,
to
the
economic
viability
of
our
airport,
to
our
community
and
to
a
lot
of
these
folks
who
have
been
in
this
business
and
it's
been
frustrating
to
me
to
see
the
our
taxi
industry
fading
away.
I
think
it's
really
important
to
have
that
as
a
competitive
part
of
our
marketplace
there.
O
B
L
B
E
You
thank
you,
tessa
would
nancy.
Basically
the
word
plan
from
what
I
looked
at
it.
A
little
bit
was
saying
that
they
were
looking
at
the
electrical
electric
signage.
That
was
one
of
the
things
that
was
in
the
work
plan,
and
I
guess
it
was
some.
It
was
also
to
deal
with
the
environmental
transportation,
the
environment
committee
issues
and
so,
but
basically,
in
regards
to
that
work
plan
in
regards
to
the
signage
that
needs
to
go
away,
I
mean
we
do
need
to
really
not
have
those
as
a
distraction.
E
As
a
you
know,
promotion
of
consumerism.
As
a
you
know,
fossil
fuel
using
signage.
We
don't
need
electric
signs.
For
that
reason,
even
though
we
say
you
know,
city
san
jose
runs
on,
you
know
pure
clean
energy,
but
it
really
doesn't-
and
you
know,
there's
nobody
there's
no
real
access
into
how
clean
our
our
energy
is
and
most
of
the
energy
you
know
with
our
clean
energy.
E
So-Called
is
not
clean,
so
you
know
so
basically
that's
one
issue
with
those
those
billboards
and
then
the
work
plan
for
the
transportation
and
the
environment.
You
know
needs
in
general
to
be
much
more
dealing
with
our
problems
that
that's
what
I've
been
really
working
at.
Is
this
this
deep
hole
that
comes
when
there's
a
problem
in
our
in
our
neighborhood.
That
is
a
safety
issue,
and
you
know
if
we
can't.
R
This
I
gotta
see
work
work
from
the
city
council.
I
get
nervous
when
I
hear
that
you
guys
are
working
at
anything.
Speaking
of
work,
where's,
pam,
foley,
today,
off
working
at
a
real
estate
office.
Trying
to
you
know,
fix
a
real
estate
deal
anyway,
vision,
zero.
I
vote.
No,
it's
just
another
way
to
control
you
it's
another
way,
just
to
have
more
cops,
generating
revenue
for
the
city
versus
fighting
or
solving
real
crime
which,
by
the
way,
hey
san
jose
pd.
R
I'd
like
one
of
you
guys
to
call
in
and
tell
me
about
a
crime,
that's
been
solved,
and
I
don't
mean
catching
a
guy
with
some
marijuana
or
somebody
jaywalking,
or
an
open
container,
or
anything
like
that.
This
city
needs
to
get
back
to
policing
overnight,
solving
crime,
preventing
crime,
not
not
trying
to
gold,
brick,
the
taxi
cab
drivers
or
the
pot
excuse.
B
R
Yeah
get
rid
of
that
too
more
billboards
to
tell
me
what
to
do
like
get
vaccinated
or
like
tessa
says:
oh
san,
jose
we're
the
most
environmental
places.
I
don't
need
you
guys
to
broadcast
that
with
electricity
24
hours
a
day.
Who
cares
what
you
people
have
to
tell
us
right,
because
we
hear
it
enough
through
the
news
and
I
listen
to
these
meetings,
and
I
can't
imagine
anything
that
you
guys
have
to
say
is
worth
anything
especially
on
one
of
these
electronic
reader
boards.
R
That's
an
eyesore,
that's
a
distraction
and
we're
we're
so
concerned
about
energy
usage
and
this
whole
world
suppose,
for
you,
guys,
is
supposed
to
be
on
some
kind
of
magical
electric
grid
with
renewable
energy.
That's
all
we
need
is
an
electronic
sign.
Please
know
electronic
signs,
they're
stupid,
it's
a
waste
of
energy
and
if
we're
going
to
be
on.
L
A
B
E
Oh
okay,
good
thank
you,
yeah
residential
garbage
and
I'm
not
sure
exactly
what
that
means
exactly
in
regards
to
dropping
the
residential
garbage.
But
the
issue
that
I
have
with
our
residential
plan
about
garbage
is
one
we're
not
collecting
our
compost,
our
our
our
our
food
waste
and
our
you
know
we
do
our
yard
waste,
we're
not
doing
food
waste,
so
we
really
need
to
get
to
that
that
it
needs
to
be
a
law
that
we
compost.
E
You
know
in
vancouver.
They
require
everybody
to
vancouver.
I
think
it's
really
canada,
but
but
basically
they
they
require
everybody
to
compost
and
also
to
collect
their
leaves
and
have
that
be
part
of
our
compost,
so
that
that
needs
to
be
a
change
in
regards
to
our
our
our
garbage,
and
you
know,
of
course
we
have
these
diesel
trucks
coming
down
our
streets,
you
know
polluting
and
with
horrible
backup.
Beepers
that
need
to
be
changed
should
be
broadband.
E
E
Who
knows
where
it
really
goes,
and
let's
just
kick
it
to
the
curb,
and
we
need
to
do
like
santa
clara
does
and
and
to
do
where
we
put
our
stuff
out
for
reuse
and
and
people
could
you
know
rummage
through
it,
and
one
person's
garbage
is
another
person's.
You
know
valuable
thing,
and
so
we
need
to
do
that
and
and
have
that,
go
forward
and
use
the
best
practices
of
other
cities
and
other
communities
to
to
guide
us
as
we
go
forward,
and
that
would
solve
a
lot.
H
H
I'm
I'm
not
all
that
knowledgeable,
but
I
try
to
bring
out.
You
know
how
these
sort
of
practices
can
be
talked
about
openly
and
to
be,
I
don't
know.
Informational
and
and
everyday
community
can
can
learn
how
to
to
ask
questions
about
these
sort
of
data
collection
and
and
data
irregularities
due
to
the
impact
of
cobit
19
within
our
garbage
rates
and
our
garbage
collection
issues
where
subsidies
can
be
applicable.
H
R
Yeah,
it
seems
like
garbage
rates,
you
guys
have
them
so
hidden.
You
know
in
the
within
the
property
taxes
same
with
water.
You
know
you
guys
are
too
afraid
to
show
the
general
public
what
it
really
cost
you
want.
You
don't
want
it
to
be
known,
so
you
bury
it
right
and
we
recycle
quite
a
bit
in
this
valley.
I
mean
it's
it's
one
of
the
number
one
places
where
people
actually
follow
the
rules
and
recycling
and
we're
doing
it
and
to
the
point
that
some
of
the
recyclable
material
is.
R
You
know
it
goes
down
in
value
because
there's
such
a
volume
of
it
and
people
say
that's
bad.
I
say
that's
good
because
at
least
it's
going
someplace
versus
landfill,
you
can't
have
trash
or
solid
waste,
it
pollutes
your
water
table
and
we
could
go
on
and
on
about
you
know.
We
don't
really
realize
how
you
manage.
R
Trash
is
actually
very
hard
to
do,
but
and
when
it
comes
to
the
cost
and
the
regulation
of
everything
the
city,
you
know
how
much
more
do
we
have
to
recycle
and
how
much
more
are
our
garbage
rates
going
to
go
up
and
our
water
rate?
So
you
guys
just
sit
back
and
let
it
happen.
You
must
be
getting
kickbacks
for
this.
R
I'm
not
saying
that
you
are,
but
it
seems
like
it
based
on
the
race
that
we
pay
some
of
the
highest
in
the
nation
someone's
getting
paid
somewhere,
and
it
wouldn't
surprise
me
what
goes
on
under
the
table
for,
for
you
know
this
type
of
stuff,
water
and
garbage
keep
in
mind
the
mafia.
Still
to
this
day,
that's
their
main.
R
Their
main
source
of
income
in
in
europe
and
sicily
and
whatnot
is
garbage
and
water
and
there's
a
reason
why
they
were
involved
in
it
in
the
united
states,
and
now
it's
just
been
taken
over
by
corporations
and
and
regulated
poorly
by
city
councils.
It's
pretty
clear.
What's
going
on,
we
take
a
look
at
that
building
over
there
for
the
water.
A
Thank
you.
I
just
wanted
to
respond
to
one
of
the
public
commenters.
We
don't
need
to
compost
our
food
because
it
actually
gets
recovered
through
our
garbage,
I'm
just
channeling
carrie
romano.
Now
he
has
the
chair
of
tne
for
almost
two
years.
I
know
that
she
would
want
me
to
say
that
so
we
we
don't
have.
J
A
E
They've
been
telling
you
this
in
in
general
that
our
hou,
our
housing
needs
to
be
by
transit,
and
yet
you
put
a
hotel
in
my
very
walkable
neighborhood.
You
know
that
is
a
resilient
neighborhood,
because
so
many
of
the
resources
are
here
so
bad
planning
on
the
part
of
our
city
and
so
there
that
property
is
available
to
be
bought
and
developed
to
to
to
address
our
housing
issue,
which
is
a
crisis
right
now
with
columbus
park,
and
we
need
to
move
those
people
and
that's
good.
E
So
we
could
buy
that
property,
develop
housing
for
the
homeless
and
and
in
and
have
it
a
24,
7
living
environment.
That's
how
things
change
with
teachers
to
teach
teach
all
the
recipients
to
live,
fossil
fuel,
free
and
and
waste
free
and
plastic
free
and
to
become
vegans.
We
have
to
become
vegans,
there's
a
lot
for
us
to
learn.
So
we
can
get
money
from
a
lot
of
reason.
B
B
H
H
What
is
a
covid
19
economic
forum
and
the
equity
roundtable
all
coming
up
in
the
next
six
months?
I
hope
it
can
be
really
considered
the
importance
of
public
accessibility
to
the
subcommittee
process
and
ways
to
develop
that
I
hope
can
be
taking
place.
We
had
a
difficult
may,
and-
and
so
you
know,
the
good
democratic
practices
didn't
really
really
want
to
be
worked
on
very
much.
Hopefully
we
can
be
more
open
to
to
those
good
ideas
and
good
community
democratic
practices
at
this
time.
Good
luck!
H
In
the
next
few
years,
but
I
do
focus
that
we
have
to
consider
how
we
can
more
openly
talk
about
planning
issues
that
I
think
can
be
of
help
but
boy
if
I'm
wrong,
I
I
hope
I
can
learn
to
talk
to
yourselves
and
I've
been
writing
yourselves
a
few
times
and
you
can
write
back
what?
What
exactly
can
we
expect
in
the
next
few
years?
I
think
it
can
develop
a
better
public
comment
time
and
an
overall
better.
H
R
R
R
R
It's
it's
a
bad
ideas,
they're
bad
ideas,
guys
have
bad
ideas,
bad
planning,
bad
implementation
and
all
you
want
to
do
is
find
and
regulate
and
tell
people
what
to
do.
Thinking
is
going
to
work.
It's
not
it's
not
going
to
work.
You
guys
are
failures.
Every
single
one
of
you,
even
the
people
who
I
like
you
guys,
are
failures,
and
you
know
it.
It's
not.
Your
ideas
are,
are
are
antiquated,
they're,
antiquated
and,
and
what
you're
doing
is
destroying
the
fabric
of
this
city
and
this
country.
R
The
way
you
guys
are
following
the
party
line
out
of
dc,
which
is
completely
wrong,
and
it
it
shows
it
shows,
look
at
the
potholes
look
at
the
burned
out
buildings.
Look
at
how
poorly
the
city's
run.
You're
running
this,
like
a
third
world
nation,
a
lot
of
people
on
top
with
money,
nobody
in
between
and
promising
people
in
poverty,
everything
it's
not
going
to
work,
and
I
don't
know
why
you
people
can
continue
to
make
the
same
stupid
mistakes
day
after
day.
I'd
like
to
see
a
response
to
what.
