C
I
I
want
to
make
a
comment
when
I
deal
with
you,
I'm
a
teacher
okay,
I'm
63
years
old,
I'm
an
educator.
I
talk
about
democracy,
okay
and
when
I
see
things
wrong
with
the
way
you're
running
the
meeting,
I
want
that
to
be
par,
not
part
of
my
comment
period,
because
I'm
working
for
you
actually,
because
you
say
the
bs,
which
says
the
rule
of
the
whole
I'd
like
to
hear
that
that
was
music
to
my
ears.
I
thought
that
was
a
beautiful
way
to
say
it
the
whole.
C
That
means
the
people
too
and
you're,
not
including
the
people
and
you're,
not
doing
a
good
job
so
like,
for
instance,
even
the.
So
I
wanted
to
restart
my
comments
because
I'm
dealing
with
bookkeeping
now
and
how
you're
running
the
meeting
and
the
what
I
found
annoying
is
that
the
the
the
link
is
hard
to
find
for
the
for
this
meeting.
C
Okay,
like
it's
really
small
in
very
small
type,
you
really
don't
want
us
to
come,
you
know,
and
so
that's
why
I
want
to
restart,
because
I
have
more
important
things
to
deal
with
than
you're
the
way
you're
running
your
meetings,
but
that
I
want
that
to
be
just
the
bookkeeping
about
you
know,
making
it
really
public.
Okay,
so
can
we
restart
now,
so
I
can
really
deal
with
the
issue.
Okay,
thank
you.
Will
you
do
that.
C
To
do
it
so
you're
saying
no
to
me
essentially
no
to
my
request,
the
rule
of
the
whole.
I
shouldn't
have
to
spend
time
helping
with
your
bookkeeping,
because
we
have
a
climate
emergency
and
you're,
not
letting
us
have
the
time.
It
is
a
lot
of
bs
and
I'm
on.
I'm
working
I've
been
going
to
the
to
the
the
meetings
of
the
of
the
the
the
charter
review,
commission
and
you're
doing
a
really
bad
job,
because
you
did
not
include
the
environment.
I
was
called
to
include.
C
I'm
working
to
you
know
not
pay
the
150
000
that
you
gave
to
other
people
to
help
engagement.
I'm
engaged
because
we're
dealing
with
a
climate,
emergency
and
you're
not-
and
this
is
where
the
real
problem
is-
is
you're
not
and
it's
all
bs
and
you're
all
actors.
Okay,
we've
got
to
be
real
about
this
and
go
to
zero.
Now
we
are
on
fire
literally
and
figuratively.
The
masses
are
coming
to
san
jose,
okay
for
housing,
for
food.
D
I'm
just
looking
forward
to
a
productive
meeting.
I
wanted
to
note
the
way
you
kind
of
glided
a
little
bit
slower
than
last
week.
I
just
want
to
tell
you
that
I
appreciate
that,
and
also
thank
you
tony
for
posting
the
agendas
ahead
of
time
it
it.
That
really
really
does
makes
my
work
a
lot
easier.
So
I
just
wanted
to
to
note
that.
Thank
you.
B
E
Hi,
where
have
we
been
here
happy
wednesday,
there's
an
item
10.4
that
has
to
do
with
contract
stuff
with
a
new
high-rise
that
your
you're
you're
you're
building,
and
I
just
hope
that
you
know,
if
needed,
a
reminder
that
you
can
take
down
the
height
limits
a
bit.
You
know
25
feet
to
50
feet
to
100
feet.
E
It
isn't
that
out
of
the
ordinary
and
it,
and
just
to
mention
this
to
yourselves
for
issues
of
health
safety
and
danger
about
the
future
of
you
know
airport
flight
path
issues.
I
hope
it
can
just
help
just
a
reminder
that
you
can,
you
know,
take
down
25
50
feet
of
the
height
limits
of
the
high
tops
of
these.
Of
these
new
highs,
high
rises,
you're
building
along
the
airport
area.
Thank
you.
D
A
C
Okay,
good
I'm
gonna
talk
about
equity
because
I'm
a
jewish
woman,
okay,
I'm
jewish
from
new
york,
I'm
jewish
from
russia.
I
I'm
a
discriminated
race,
okay.
That
is
what
happened
in
my
neighborhood,
my
neighborhood,
where
I
live.
Okay,
I
am
discriminated
against
from
my
german
neighbors,
my
german
politicians,
that
is
how
I've
been
treated.
I
have
been
mistreated.
Okay
and
you
know
what
it
really
boils
down
to,
for.
This
is
real.
Truth
is
sheila
the
street.
C
A
A
D
E
E
E
A
Yeah,
thank
you.
My
interest
is
in
a
time
certain
for
item
8.6,
the
affordable
housing
siding
policy.
I
see
that's
recommended
not
to
be
heard
before
six
and
I'd
like
to
see
if
we
could
change
that
to
a
time
certain
at
six.
I
do
believe
the
agenda
is
gonna,
be
long
enough
to
put
us
through
a
dinner
break,
so
I
and
regardless,
if
it
was
not
to
be
heard
before
six,
then
we
were
already
planning
on
a
dinner
break
so
but
I'd
rather
it
be
a
time
certain.
A
B
B
D
C
Thank
you,
public
record,
okay.
Well,
I
was
dealt
with
that
already.
I
told
you
our
record.
Keeping
is
bad
and
the
record
this
is
really
the
record
I'm
dealing
with
is
that
you
don't
put
any
energy
towards
the
environment
in
a
real
real
way.
You
do
nothing
and
it's
all
bs
and-
and
it
shows
because
there's
a
charter
review
commission
and
the
charter
is
where
we
can
not
be
at
the
whims
of
our
politicians
who
have
led
us
to
the
you
have
killed
us.
You
have.
C
You
have
ill
made
us
ill
from
your
activities
of
your
support,
we're
sick
and
we're
disabled,
and
we
are,
you
know,
we're
really
sick
now
with
kovid,
it's
all
because
of
your
type
of
action.
So
I
call
you
criminals,
that's
what
I
call
and
that
you
know
you
heard
us
and
you're
not
listening
to
us
and
things
are
getting
worse
and
worse
and
worse
because
you're
not
listening-
and
you
know
it's
just
really
bad
now,
it's
really
really
bad
now.
C
You
know-
and
my
husband
has
no
hope
so
anyway,
there's
hope,
because
but
we're
having
to
fight
the
problem,
is
we
talk
about
rules
and
all
these
things
open
for
the
whole?
That's
not
happening
in
the
this
is
what's
happening.
What
no
I'm
telling
you
this
is
good,
don't
interrupt.
I
am
telling
you
something
important
about
this
review.
You
help
me
out
what
I'm.
C
My
time
don't
take
my
time.
That's
rude!
That's
taking
away
from
the
topic,
which
is
climate
crisis
and
you're,
taking
it
away
and
do
not
take
it
away.
I'm
telling
you
right
now:
we
are
not
dealing
with
it
because
I'm
dealing
with
the
charter
review,
commission
and
she's
having
trouble
getting
even
the
the
climate
crisis
on
the
agenda.
Okay,
I've
had
to
help
her
there's
been
so
much
corruption
about
it
and
there's
nothing
going
on
with
it
and
I'm
having
trouble
and
I'm
having
to
work
on
not
getting
paid
like
the
150
000.
C
You
gave
to
other
non-profits
okay,
and
there
was
no
environmental
group
on
it.
None!
Okay,
because
you
don't
want
to
change,
and
that
is
the
truth
and
and
we
see
it
in
all
your
actions
and
I'm
I'm
sick
of
it,
and
I
can't
take
it
anymore:
okay
and
that's
what
demetrius
zetamin
says:
she's
half
black
and
half
half
mexican.
So
maybe
you
listen
to
her:
okay,
she's,
not
white
and
jewish.
Like
me,
okay,
she
says
we
need
a
revolution.
B
E
Hi
blair
rickman
here
in
my
own-
I
I
I'm
gonna,
speak
to
a
few
words
that
tess
has
spoken
about
at
open
forum
to
speak
to
my
my
own
letter
today
in
public
record
to
again
offer
just
some
90
days
after
december.
31St
2021
is
when
the
eviction
moratorium
ends
in
the
counties
of
alameda
and
santa
clara.
E
So
you
know
it's
the
september
30th
date
that
we
have
to
really
be
considering,
because
that
will
give
a
certain
amount
of
power
to
owners
to
evict
tenants
and
that's
what
jackie
is
really
working
on
and
thank
you
for
all
her
efforts
and
and
sorry
for
my
own
mis
interpretations
of
this
subject
back
in
june
she's
doing
something
awesome,
possibly
for
the
local
level.
Let's
hope
she
can
do
that
and
if
not
you
know,
the
city,
council
and
city
government
has
the
power
to
create
emergency
declarations
at
the
end
of
september.
E
So
good
luck
in
those
efforts
with
57
seconds.
My
second
letter
was
about
you
know
the
importance
of
the
work
I'm
doing
towards
accountability
and
open
public
policies
with
technology.
It
can
really
help.
You
know
there
was
a
reimagined
public
safety
meeting
today.
It
can
really
help
that
process
and
and
help
both
sides.
E
You
know,
chart
a
good
course
of
what
are
good,
open
public
policy
practices
and
to
develop
a
future
that
is
more
in
allows
the
community
more
of
a
voice
in
the
community
government
process
and
that's
the
whole
point
of
my
work
that
I'm
doing
it.
It's
a
new
future,
we're
we're
headed
towards,
and
you
know,
the
open
democratic
process
and
the
community
process.
It's
incredibly
important,
it's
not
just
a
a
democracy
of
a
republic.
It's
a
democracy
of
the
individual.
We're
learning
to
do
that
better
here
in
san
jose.
E
A
C
All
right,
thank
you.
Well
the
thing
I
really
liked
about
the
county
when
they
would
deal
like
when
you
were
showing
us
those
pages.
We
couldn't
read
anything.
We
didn't
know
what
was
going
on
something
they
did
in
the
county.
They
actually
read
like
the
out
loud
what
they
were
you
know,
so
we
could
hear
it
and
know
what
you're
consenting
to,
but
you
don't
do
that
you
just
one
page
like
like.
C
I
can't
read
it
anyway,
getting
to
the
public
I'm
getting
to
the
issue
of
whatever
it
is
that
you're
dealing
with
and
you're
not
dealing
with
our
crisis.
That
is
the
truth,
and
so
that's
because
you're
politicians
and
you
can't
and
so
because
you're
running
for
office
and
you
have
to
lie
and
cheat
and
get
a
lot
of
money
to
become
an
officer
and
so
and
that's
your
salary
and
that's
what
they
say
and
it's
your
salary.
C
You
can't
see
the
truth,
okay,
and
so
what
we
need
is
in
in
the
charter
and
that's
what
we're
working
on.
My
husband
is
working
on
that
my
husband
is
working
putting
in
the
charter.
What
we
need
to
do,
and
one
of
the
things
he
suggests
is
that
we
have
a
climate
crisis
action
team
and
and
I'm
getting
the
best
scientists
to
come
and
talk
to
you
guys.
Okay,
I'm
getting
them
james
hansen,
who
said
in
in
1988
that
he's
a
you
know
from
noah
from
the
space.
You
know
he
said
he
he
saw.
C
The
data,
like
my
husband,
sees
the
data
that
we
were
rising.
Our
temperature
rising
is
caused
by
fossil
fuel
burning
and
he
told
us
that
in
1988
and
that's
who
I
want
to
have
come
because
he
said
it
was
already
dangerous.
He
went
to
congress
and
you
have
been
we've
been
you
know,
abdicating.
You
know
we
don't
listen
to
the
science,
we're
not
listening,
but
the
thing
is
it's
here
now,
so
you
know
that's
the
truth
that
we
can't
look
away
from
that.
You
even
had
to
declare
a
climate
emergency
again
with
covid.
C
They
say
kobet's
not
going
away
okay,
so
we
have
crises
on
top
of
crises
and
the
climate
crisis.
Like
my
hus,
my
son
said:
if
we
solve
that,
we
will
solve
everything
and
it
is
true.
It
is
true.
So
let's
do
it.
Let's
really
do
it.
No
obs,
no
more
just
business
as
usual,
no
more
hotels,
no
more
bringing
vices,
no
more,
bringing
in
anonymity,
no
more
bringing
disease
to
my
neighborhood.
How
dare
you
bring
a
hotel
into
my
neighborhood
with
the
delta
and
all
the
other
variants.
E
E
D
D
Oh,
okay,
well,
yeah,
it's
obvious!
So
we
didn't.
We
don't
have
those
numbers
here,
because
we
don't
count,
but
you
know
that
that's
all
right,
it's
no
big
deal
and-
and
that
was
like
indicative
of
the
kinds
of
treatment
that
the
city
has
received
as
a
whole.
Elvisa
was
actually
the
first
port.
It
was
a
very
critical
port
for
san
jose
in
order
to
connect
it
to
san
francisco
before
we
had
the
railroad,
and
so
it
was
very,
very
critical
for
the
for
commerce
with
respect
to
san
jose
and
the
entire
region.
D
B
C
Oh,
thank
you
so
much.
Thank
you
so
much
well.
That
was
you
know
just
realizing
what
we
really
need,
what
I,
what
I'm
working
on
so
you
know
what
I'm
working
on
is
getting
a
letter
to
you
and
having
the
whole
neighborhood
write
you
a
letter.
Okay,
that's
what
I'm
working
on,
because
we
need
we
need
in
the
charter,
something
about
not
something
a
lot
about
our
climate
crisis,
because
that's
what
you
do
when
you're
in
a
crisis,
you
only
talk
about
a
crisis
and
that's
when
we
have
one
world
voice.
C
A
C
I'm
off
topic,
but
topic
is
this:
we
are
very
critical
topic.
We're
working
on
is
a
charter
review.
Commission,
okay
and
it's
been,
it's
been
bogarted,
it's
been
resisted,
nobody
wants
to
give
them
time,
nobody's
giving
them
any
money,
and
then
you
know-
and
here
you're
not
even
giving
me
my
two
minutes
so.
B
C
Yeah
you're
gonna
interrupt
me.
I
know
you
know,
that's
the
thing
we
need
to
okay,
I
will
speak
to
it.
We
need
to
de-grow.
That
is
absolutely
true.
We
need
to
de-grow,
that's
fine,
thank
you.
So
we
need
to
de-grow
and
that
means
taking
care
of
basic
human
needs,
and
that
is
the
crisis
we
are
in.
We
are
in
a
crisis.
If
you
haven't
seen
the
burning
in
california,
then
you're
not
paying
attention
and
if
you
haven't
seen
the
air
quality,
you
are
not
paying
attention
and
that's
why
you're?
C
That's
what
you
know
whatever
that
guy
who
said
what
we
have
one
degree
you
know:
that's
it
now
we're
going
towards
1.5
and
then
they
make
compromises
to
two
degrees
because
we're
doing
business
as
usual,
and
we
have
to
stop
now
and
we
have
to
start
doing
real
things
because
it
takes
a
long
time
to
grow
food,
and-
and
these
are
the
things
we
need
to
be
doing-
is
getting
ready
for
the
emergencies
that
are
coming
and
that's
what
the
science
is.
It's
everywhere
and
that's
what
needs
that
we
need
to.
C
E
You
know,
people
like
the
state
of
california,
the
aclu,
the
state
of
massachusetts,
the
u.n,
even
among
a
bunch
of
other
people,
are
working
towards
a
future
of
of
more
the
democracy
and
community
of
the
individual,
as
opposed
to
a
large
republic
really
check
out
this
stuff.
I
mean
it
can
really
address.
E
We,
I
don't
think
we
quite
went
for
it
at
the
time,
and
now
we
are,
and
now
we
have
to
almost
because
we
have
to
prepare
for
upcoming
earthquakes
and
natural
disasters
in
the
bay
area.
So
you
know
it,
the
subsidies
can
be
good
practices.
We
just
have
to
make
sure
to
use
them
responsibly
and
well,
and
that
they're
not
used
in
terms
of
you
know
developing
real
estate
companies
themselves,
but
that
they're
specifically
intended
to
help
everyday
community
boy.
E
D
D
We
need
to
really
get
away
from
talking
about
to
end
homelessness,
okay,
because
I
think
that
that
gives
a
a
very
false
narrative
around,
because
you-
and
I
both
know-
that's
not
gonna
happen
that
that
is
just
not
going
to
happen
in
this
city.
So
it's
an
insult
to
you
know
just
even
semi-intelligent
people
that
somehow
another
what
you
were
doing
is
going
to
end
it.
D
Okay,
because
your
failures-
and
I
will
continue
to
center
this-
every
single
member
of
this
council
100
responsible
for
the
fact
that
in
2016
until
now,
95
to
115
of
market
rate
housing
goals
have
been
met
without
fail
every
single
year.
At
the
same
time,
a
maximum
of
25,
affordable,
eli,
vli
housing
has
been
met.
This
is
intentional.
D
D
Okay-
and
you
are
not
accepting
the
responsibility
for
those
failures,
because
you
failed
us
because
that's
compounded
interest
every
single
year
that
you
failed,
that's
compounded
to
the
next
year
and
then
the
next
year
and
now
we're
dealing
with
it
and
we're
trying
to
like.
You,
know,
everybody's
trying
to
make
excuses
about
what
has
happened.
But
it's
right
there
in
the
data,
so
don't
preach
to
me
about
data
and
it's
being
boss
when
you
don't
even
follow
it.
D
B
A
B
C
Well,
I
was
just
seeing
that
in
this,
what
we're
proposing
to
you?
Okay,
so
the
letter
is
going
to
be
coming
to
you,
hopefully
from
the
whole,
all
the
environmentalists
in
the
world,
if
I
could
get
them
all
together,
they'd
write
you
a
letter,
okay,
but
it's
a
lot
of
work
to
do
that.
So
I'm
I'm
taking
the
time
to
do
this
with
you
now
and
I'm
saying
to
you
guys
that
we
need
to
have
in
the
charter
committee.
No.
C
First
of
all,
it's
been
so
difficult
in
the
charter
review
commission
to
even
get
any
time
to
talk
about
the
climate
crisis,
but
she
fought
very
hard,
magnolia
siegel,
who
was
appointed
by
dev
heiner
davis.
So,
thank
you
dev.
You
did
a
good
job
because
she's
doing
a
great
job,
magnolia
siegel,
okay
and
she's-
trying
to
get
climate
change
to
be
in
the
charter
and
she's
getting
my
husband
to
talk
to
her
and
we
had
a
great
subcommittee
with
rick
calendar
about
equity.
It
was
really
powerful,
but
that's
something
that
needs
to
be
corrected.
C
The
subcommittee
should
be
aired.
It's
very
important.
Everything
we
talk
about
is
important
and
if
we're
in
a
crisis-
and
we
need
to
really
be
working
on
it,
and
so
my
husband
is
designing
it
putting
it
into
the
charter
making
how
we
can
go
to
zero
because
he
knows
that's
what
we
have
to
do
and
he's
starting
it
that
he
says
that
it
has
to
be
completely
revealed
how
much
fossil
fuels
you're
using
and
then
shown
to
the
public,
and
that's
seen
that's
what
you
know
paul
was
saying
to
you.
C
Paul
was
saying
that
you're
responsible
for
us
going
down.
You
know,
and
I'm
saying
it
is
criminal
that
you've
hurt
us.
You
know
when
we
have
diseases
and
we're
you
know,
look
at
the
disease.
We
have,
and
I
blame
it
on
you,
because
you
haven't,
you
haven't
done
what
the
new
zealand
did
shut
it
down,
shuts
it
down
when
there's
one
case
of
of
of
the
disease.
You
know-
and
you
know
like
like
paul
said
yesterday
too,
he
said
you
know
that
that
event
you
had
that
j.
C
Oh
my
girlfriend
demetrius
henderman
said
too
the
it
was
a.
It
was
a
spreader,
the
jazz,
the
jazz
concert
that
you
had
to
make
money.
You
know
you're
making
money,
you
want
us
to
go
back
into
the
airports
and
this
type
of
thing
and
it's
all
wrong,
and
so
we
have
to
change.
That's
what
the
science
says
and
we
need
you.
Thank
you.
B
E
Hi,
thank
you
laura
beekman.
Thanks
for
the
meeting,
I
remember
I
looked
up
and
remember
when
I
wanted
to
talk
about
rezoning
for
the
flea
market
to
quickly
offer
you
know.
I
hope
you
can
remember
that
you
know
the
the
new
flea
market
union
and
they
can
actually
have
a
really
good
voice
in
helping
the
actual
development
of
the
future
of
the
place
of
the
land,
and
you
know
I
think
they
can
actually
help
design
buildings.
E
How
much
office
space
is
needed,
how
much
residential
space
and
to
better
develop
vending
things
really
trust
them.
I
mean,
I
think
I
think
that
that's
part
of
the
process
that
we
can
develop.
That
will
just
be
really
amazing
for
our
future.
What
can
happen
with
a
minute
17
to
comment
on
a
few
of
tess's
words
and
and
actually
first
to
bring
up?
E
It
does
have
some
un
guidelines
that
are
part
of
it
and
and
it's
those
guidelines
that
we
walk
right
back
to
the
un.
At
this
time
and
ask
them
what's
going
on
and
we
describe
to
them
what
we
could
be
building
our
future
about,
and
it
isn't
about
hurting
people
to
work
towards
a
better
future.
I
think
we
can
really
bring
this
to
them
and
show
them
exactly
what
they
need
to
be
doing
for
our
future.
E
F
Yeah
hi
martha
o'connell
chappie.
This
is
not
directed
toward
you,
because
I
commend
you
for
your
valiant
attempt
to
run
a
good
meeting
over
my
lifetime.
I
have
been
the
chair
of
many
commissions
and
committees
and
other
entities,
and
I
can
tell
you
that
what
my
colleagues
on
these
entities
have
told
me
is
that
there
need
to
be
rules
and
those
rules
need
to
be.
F
Everyone
needs
to
understand
the
level
playing
field
and
those
rules
need
to
be
enforced
right
now.
Unfortunately,
it
seems
that
bad
behavior
is
being
rewarded
when
people
call
in
and
despite
the
rules
they
talk
about
the
topic.
Another
topic
when
they've
been
called
on
for
a
specific
topic
and
they
go
on
and
on
and
on
that
is
not
fair
to
the
rest
of
us
who
are
obeying
the
rules.
I
would
love
to
talk
about
rent
control
every
time
I
call
in,
but
I
don't
do
that.
I
stick
to
the
topic
so
chappie.
F
D
D
This
one
dude,
who
had
a
heat
stroke.
What
they're
asking
for
is
working
conditions
that
they're,
not
overheated
one
person
had
an
actual
heat
stroke.
He
comes
back
to
work
and
the
conditions
are
the
same,
and
so
these
people
they're
they're,
being
exploited
because
they
have
to
work.
They
must
work
or
else
we're
gonna
have
a
landlord
having
a
gun
pointed
at
them
by
the
sheriff's
department
and
point
a
gun
at
them
and
say
get
out
of
that
house.
Now
you
and
your
family
get
out
because
the
landlord
needs
to
profit
from
it.
