Join
us
shortly,
so
why
don't
we
commence
the
joint
meeting
and
for
rules
and
open
government
committee
committee
of
the
whole
for
Wednesday
June
10th,
welcome
everyone.
We're
joined
by
councilmember,
canvass
counselor
Davis
vice
mayor
Jones,
and
will
so
we
have
a
quorum
we'll
begin
with
a
review
of
the
final
agenda.
That's
for
June,
16th
and
I!
Guess
for
all
of
these,
we
should
probably
start
at
11:00.
Is
that
right
then?
Yes,.
B
B
A
B
A
E
E
You
know
it's
important
to
try
to
work
towards
the
ideas
of
equity,
I,
think
and
with
with
what
happened
with
Kovac
19,
how
you
had
to
work.
Your
I
mean
really
had
to
hustle
with
the
budget
in
March.
In
mid-march
there
was
some
hopes
that
there
could
be
a
real
direction
in
how
to
talk
about
the
budget
and
and
equity
and
I
was
very
interested
in
that
concept.
You
also
taught
there
was
also
ideas
mentioned
about
deficit
reduction.
You
could
practice
deficit
reduction
at
the
same
time
with
with
these.
With
this,
with
this
kovat
budget.
E
You
know
those
are
two
really
important
concepts
to
me
and
I
hope.
That's
it's
taken.
You
know
really
seriously
and
within
San
Jose
City
government
and
for
all
of
us
I
think
it's
really
good
hopeful
practices
and
good
luck
on
those
efforts.
I
I
have
to
be
kind
of
like
a
cheerleader
and
just
offer
my
enthusiasm
to
just
hope
that
you
know
you
guys.
Can
figure
out
a
way
to
work
together
on
the
issues
of
equity
within
the
budget
and
it
can
be
an
enjoyable
process.
I
think,
thank
you.
Thank
you.
All.
A
D
C
A
C
B
A
G
E
All
right,
thank
you.
The
safety
there
is
a
probable
need
for
the
complete
removal
of
the
Bradford
Asian,
pear
trees
in
downtown
posts
to
Galloway
downtown
San
Jose.
There
can
be
time
to
contribute
your
own
ideas,
including,
if
you
feel
a
more
phased
in
approach,
can
be
used
or,
if
you
feel
a
different
set
of
trees
should
be
planted.
Write
to
the
City
arborist
San,
Jose,
CA
gov,
to
add
your
thoughts
still.
E
This
has
to
be
a
simple
honest
conversation
and
dialogue
and
efforts
needed
by
the
San,
Jose
community
and
local
government
together
to
address
the
massive
push
of
technology
by
the
federal
government
in
this
time
of
Cove
in
nineteen.
Thank
you.
It
needs
to
be
good
practices
from
everyone
and
we
just
need
to
set
a
few
new
good
standards
for
each
other.
Thank
you.
Thank.

J
Afternoon,
Joe
Royce
city
auditor:
this
is
our
monthly
report
activities
from
May
of
2020.
So
at
the
end
of
May,
we
issued
our
preliminary
review
of
controls.
The
documents
ovid
19
recovered
cost,
which
we
heard
yesterday
at
Council,
just
quick
reiteration.
What
we
had
done
is
looked
at
the
systems
in
place
against
the
theme
of
guidelines,
which
were
the
most
explicit
and
detailed
guidelines
for
federal
reimbursements
available
to
us
in
this
in
this
area.
J
The
next
step
is
to
start
pooling
documentation
or
you
against
the
city's
documentation
plan,
and
for
that
we'll
be
looking
across
program
areas,
even
those
that
may
not
be
eligible.
I
wanted
to
touch
briefly
on
our
assignments
in
progress,
because,
as
you
know,
a
number
of
our
program
of
our
projects
were
originally
slated
to
be
released
in
April
and
May
of
this
year.
A
J
That's
basically
understanding
I
think
in
some
of
the
for
the
cares,
Act
I
believe
that's
the
case.
I
think
we
will
keep
looking
at
the
cares
guidance
because
that
keeps
coming
out
anything
particularly
biji
or
some
of
the
others.
We
can
dig
in
a
little
deeper,
but
the
documentation
plan
basically
is
the
city's.
Putting
together
the
you
know,
gathering
the
documentation.
The
invoice
is
the
justification
following
proper
procurement
practices,
all
those
things
can
be
standard
across
the
different
programs.
You
know
if
there's
anything
specific
to
a
CDBG
program,
for
example
about
documentation
of
sheltered
population.
A
H
J
So
what
I
usually
do
around
this
time
of
year
is
I'll,
send
an
email
out
to
all
the
council
offices
asking
for
any
any
ads
that
you
may
want
for
the
or
audit
suggestions.
I,
know
a
number
suggestions
that
people
have
provided
over
time
and
I'll
always
take
those
suggestions
and
kind
of
file
them
away
and
add
them
into
our
our
considerations,
but
I'll
be
sending
out
an
email
in
the
next
day
or
two.
J
What
usually
send
this
out
a
little
around
the
budget
time,
once
kind
of
a
budget
kind
of
gets
set
a
little
bit
more
and
then
they'll
follow
the
same
process.
Well
over
the
next
few
weeks,
I'll
put
something
together
and
then
I'll
be
coming
back
to
rules
the
beginning
of
August,
with
the
work
plan
for
approval
got.
H
J
Not
by
submission
date,
it's
it's
there's
a
few
different
factors,
one
some
some
things
just
pop
this
list
from
a
risk
standpoint.
Other
things
popped
is
a
list
because
from
a
timing
standpoint,
for
example,
if
we
have
a
project
underway
in
say
PR
and
s
for
that
likely
to
start
another
PRS
project
until
until
we're
completed
with
the
other
one.
For
example,
we
had
a
number
of
Public
Works.
It's
this
past
year,
we
weren't
gonna,
do
them
all
at
once,
we're
gonna
kind
of
kind
of
hit.
J
In
my
overtime,
the
other
piece
is
just
availability
of
staff
and
how
the
staffing
piece
kind
of
shakes
out
and
then
the
final
piece
is
just
availability
of
department
staff,
for
example.
Something
that
has
a
heavy
budget
component
will
try
to
avoid
the
spring
time,
something
that
has
a
heavy
accounting
impact
will
kind
of
avoid
the
capper
season.
So
it's
it's
kind
of
a
balancing
act
and
kind
of
work
with
the
administration
to
kind
of
figure
out.
That's
timing
and
many
of
the
projects
there's
a
couple.
J
H
K
H
I
think
you
know
what
would
not
item
for
sure
meets
that
criteria
and
that's
the
police,
staffing
to
review
in
comparison
overtime
and
projected
issuance
I
think
remains
to
be
determined.
So
if
you
know,
if
we
read
the
the
room
in
terms
of
how
we
we
can
benefit
from
having
this
maybe
move
to
the
top
of
the
list,
that
would
be
wonderful.
J
H
Would
be
great
and
so
that
my
next
question
is
how
is
your
capacity
right
now
impacted
with
the
EOC,
because
I
believe
that
some
of
your
staff
is
on
lend
for
the
EOC,
and
then
you
have
a
list
here
that
that
I'm,
looking
at
that
of
assignments
that
haven't
started
yet.
Obviously
you
know
there's
a
bit
in
terms
of
what
you
can
do.
I
think
your
department
is
absolutely
fabulous,
but
there's
always
a
capacity.
J
On
that
point,
so,
as
I
said
before,
we
had
originally
planned
to
you
know,
at
least
for
the,
for
the
projects
assignments,
the
process
we
had
planned
to
be
wrapped
up
by
May,
and
so
all
those
ones
that
are
not
started.
We
had
four
plan
to
kind
of
get
moving,
which
would
just
let
it
leave
a
few
carry
over
not
yet
started,
which
is
usually
are.
J
We
always
have
a
little
extra
at
the
end
just
in
case,
and
so
we
are
a
little
behind
our
capacity
right
now
is
so
we
have
four
individuals
working
in
AOC
and
non
non
capacity,
but
even
with
their
work,
they
do
have
a
little
capacity
to
kind
of
wrap
up.
Some
of
the
other
auto
work.
We've
got
three
people
working
on
the
kovat,
19
audit
work,
and
that
leaves
the
remaining
staff
which
about
five
or
six
auditors,
myself
included
to
to
do
other
other
projects.
J
H
J
B
J
And
I
understand-
and
we
all
understand
that
there's
going
to
be
continued
need
for
Emergency
Operations
work,
whether
it's
folks,
you
know
my
folks
in
logistics
section
or
someone
with
nonprofit
Assistance
Group,
so
they're
going
to
be
ongoing,
need
in
those
areas.
So
just
have
to
balance
that
with
you
know,
the
priorities
within
the
audit
are
on
a
plane,
yeah.
H
I'm
just
trying
to
gauge
what
is
the
impact
because
being
part
of
the
EEOC
or
taking
part
in
that
having
a
role
there
and
what
we
are
pushing
holding
off
to
work
on,
and
you
know
your
audits
are
absolutely
crucial
for
all
of
us
to
figure
out
how
to
move
ahead
with
policy.
So
I
see
this
as
it's
also
holding
us
up
in
terms
of
some
of
these
areas
of
concern
that
we
have
on
this
list.
But
I
I
know
that
you
do
your
best,
you
you,
you
have
a
wonderful
great
team
and
I.
H
H
J
A
E
Hi,
thank
you
as
usual.
Each
month,
each
and
every
month
you
you
have
a
your
audit
reports,
an
item
about
2016
technology,
deployment,
ideas
and
options
and
I
just
wanted
to
offer
a
few
thoughts
on
the
subject
that
I
hope
that
you
can
can
be
considering
within
you
know,
city,
government
and
and
and
technology
deployment
issues
how
to
create
a
unfelt
8,
a
community
meeting
process
for
broadband
technology.
You
you
have
your
gung-ho
and
have
really
good
ideas
of
what
you
want
to
do
right
now.
E
But
where
is
a
place
for
as
a
community
we
can
kind
of
like
sit
and
talk
about
the
issues
of
it
and
I
hope
you
can
just
be
able
to
foster
kind
of
a
you
know.
What
I
keep
saying
you
know,
minimal
use
practices
are
practical,
it
can
happen
and
it
doesn't
have
to
be
an
oversaturation,
an
overhyped
job
which
I'm
very
fearful
that
the
city
of
San
Jose
is
gonna,
do
and
that
you
don't
have
to
and
I
really
really
wish
you
wouldn't
and
I
hope.
E
We
can
learn
how
to
not
do
that
and
how
can?
How
can
I
ask
that
of
you?
In
your
city,
government
and
and
the
technology
department
to
to
procure
a
process
of
a
community,
you
know
government
dialogue
to
develop
that
idea.
You
know
where
we
can
just
be
more
mellow
about
how
we
talk
about
the
feature.
E
A
broadband
tech
I
mean
because
it's
been
dumped
on
us
and
we
have
to
really
practice
how
to
be
a
bit
different
about
it,
I
think
and
and-
and
you
can
still
accomplish
the
same
things
that
just
you
have
to
take
a
much
much
softer
approach
and
I
hope
you
can
work
on
that
and
I
guess.
That's
I
had
a
few
other
things
to
say,
but
that's
that's
about
all
for
now.
So
thank
you.
Thank.
G
A
Grooming
will
have
an
obvious
practices.
The
city
make
sure
nobody's
violating
the
county
order,
all
right,
all
in
favor,
aye
aye
aye
aye
that
passes.
Thank
you
on
item
three
Corona,
but
relief
actually
Jeff.
You
could
hang
around
for
this
one,
because
I
suspect
you
may
be
asked
some
questions.
Coronavirus
relief
fund,
accountability.
I
Proposal
to
address
the
unprecedented
single
influx
of
funds,
I
think
the
other
sort
of
comparable
group
of
funds
that
we've
received
as
a
city
was
ARRA
during
the
recession.
But
the
cares
act,
it's
a
huge
influx
of
funds
and
that
we've
had
to
navigate
the
use
of
these
funds
and
an
understanding
that
it's
a
moving
target
that
we
have
had
a
lot
of
questions
around
how
it
can
be
used.
I
Most
recently,
we
got
an
additional
thirty
two
point:
eight
million
dollars
and
cares
and
HUD
funds
with
their
own
set
of
rules
and
guidance
that
were
fortunately
with
that.
Thirty
two
point:
eight.
There
was
some
more
clear
guidance
issued
with
that.
So
we
brought
this
forward
because
not
because
our
staff
doesn't
have
integrity,
but
because
we
find
ourselves
in
a
city
in
unprecedented
circumstances
and
I,
don't
think
anybody.
I
Any
single
person
in
our
city
has
the
experience
needed
to
deal
with
this
kind
of
federal
funding,
in
addition
to
all
the
other
duties
that
we're
facing,
and
so
really
it's
to
bring
in
a
team
that
has
some
specialized
teas
in
dealing
with
federal
funding
in
to
provide
that
transparency
and
accountability.
That
our
residents
have
gotten
used
to
from
us.
Thank
you.
Thank.
A
A
G
Did
I
also
want
to
make
sure
our
money's
being
look?
Might
the
point
of
me
being
on
this
memo?
I
want
to
make
sure
that
the
money
is
being
spent
and
that
we're
taking
full
advantage
of
the
grants
without
losing
them
and
and
I
want
to
make
sure
that
the
money
goes
to
where
it's
supposed
to
go,
and
it
would
be
nice
to
have
a
full
accounting
and
an
understanding
of
how
the
money
is
being
spent
given
to
Council
I
know
that
Joe
I
didn't
really
eyes.
G
J
So
there
is
some
work
in
that
area
already
from
an
auditing
standpoint,
but
it
but
the
piece
about
accountability.
Transparency
is
like.
If
we
could
take
on,
you
have
to
kind
of
figure
out
what
that,
with
a
specific
scope
and
what's
it
with
the
what
the
councilmembers
specifically
was
like
see,
I,
don't
know,
Polly
or
loose
want
to
add
anything
yeah.
F
Many
of
these
consultants
have
particular
skill
sets,
and
it
is
certainly
helpful
to
have
an
organization's
like
Widow
Brian,
that
has
a
skill
set
in
providing
deep,
deep
information
on
the
FEMA
funding
sources
and
other
funding
sources.
But
we
also
need
an
organization
that
can
provide
us
assistance
in
how
we
not
just
get
those
funds
but
keep
those
funds,
and
so
that
gets
into
disaster
cost
accounting.
F
It
gets
into
internal
controls,
it
gets
to
appropriate
levels
of
documentation
and
the
true
for
us
is
not
just
to
set
up
a
structure,
a
recovery
structure
for
this
event,
but
to
set
up
a
recovery
structure
for
all
upcoming
events.
So
we
will
be
able
to
stand
up
sort
of
a
replicant
of
each
of
these
in,
in
whatever
format
that
we
would
have
to
do
for
for
the
the
power
surges
for
the
wildfires
and
a
mocking
envoy.
Every
time.
F
I
take
this
enough
and
then
I'll
talk
about
the
murder
Hornets
that
I'm
always
making
jokes
about
you
know,
but
all
those
things
in
being
able
to
to
have
a
structure
that
a
recovery
structure.
They
can
stand
the
test
of
time,
and
so
the
consultants
that
we're
talking
to
outside,
of
where
O'brien
can
provide
us
that.
F
A
B
I
just
wanted
to
ask
deep:
it
sounds
like
you:
don't
need
this
direction
because
it's
already
happening
I'm
a
little
bit
given
what
given
what
Joe
said
yesterday
and
what
he
said
today,
I
do
we
do.
We
need
to
sum
this
to
the
full
council
to
direct
you
to
do
this,
because
it
sounds
like
it's
already
happening.
Yeah.
C
I
think
that's
a
fair
question.
I
guess
it
really
depends
on
on
the
writers
of
the
memo
based
on
what
they're
hearing
from
us
right
now,
both
yesterday
what
they're
hearing
from
Joe
what
they're
hearing
from
the
team
today
you
know
are
we
hitting
the
mark?
It
feels
like
it
to
me,
but
you
know:
I
I,
wouldn't
I
want
to
make
sure
that
the
authors
of
the
memo
feel
like
what
they're
hearing
from
us
does
to
do.
That.
G
I
I
don't
know
if
Maya
does
either,
but
I
can
tell
you
that
it
sounds
like
we're
going
down
the
right
path
to
me
and
I
didn't
know.
I
had
not
known
that
we
were
already
looking
at
hiring
outside
assistance
and
my
main
my
main
goal
was
sure
that
we
give
the
proper
support
to
our
auditing
to
and
that
we
get
expertise
on
how
to
make
best
use
of
the
money.
That
was
my
goal
and
it
sounds
to
me.
G
I
B
I
D
So
the
auditing
firm
will
be
hired
or
the
outside
firm
will
be
hired
this
week
and
guess,
where
we're
happy
to
do
an
info
memo
on
the
scope
of
services
and
kind
of
the
details
of
what
we
will
be
having
them
do
as
well
as
Widow
Brian
and
any
other
consultants
that
we
need
to
bring
along
to
meet
the
direction
and
accountability
factors.
Would.
A
B
C
A
A
H
D
D
It's
inclusive
of
you
know
we
we
will
need
to
do
a
number
of
audits,
as
Luz
and
Julia
said
with
you
know,
external,
our
external
auditors.
So
everything
that
we
do
within
the
EEOC
to
do
our
continual
audits
and
Joe's
been
great
in
the
performance
audit.
But
we
also
want
to
be
able
to
ensure
that
we
were
building
in
the
financial
components
as
well.
And
then
you
know
a
lot
of
these
firms
also,
as
Luz
pointed
out,
have
disaster
recovery,
accounting,
specialties
and
Councilmember
as
far
as
those
absolutely
right.
H
Okay,
so
it
sounds
because
we
have
a
variety
of
funding
sources.
The
the
good.
The
good
news
in
that
in
your
report
is
that
we
got
a
lot
of
money.
That's
that's
good,
so
I
had
just
had
asked
about
his.
You
know
his
the
capacity
of
his
team,
so
does
that
mean
that
if
we
hire
this
additional
auditing
firm,
that
that
would
alleviate
Joe's
role
or
lessen
his
role-
or
maybe
this
is
something
that
you'll
come
back
with
us
in
two
weeks
to
share
yeah.
D
So
I
would
just
say
in
no
way
from
AOC
leadership
or
Julia
or
lose
as
they've
worked
on
it
with
us.
Do
we
see
that
this
diminishes
Joe's
responsibilities
or
role
whatsoever?
His
kind
of
independence
in
the
organization
and
and
identifying
issues
that
we
need
to
address
early
on
has
been
really
important.
I
think
what
I
tried
to
say
yesterday
and
I'll
try
and
say
it
more
eloquently.
D
We
stood
up
a
recovery
section
within
the
EOC
in
2017
after
the
flood
as
part
of
our
action
after-action
report,
but
you
guys
see
the
money
coming
in
from
the
after-action
report.
It's
fairly
small
compared
to
the
upfront
money
that
we've
received
from
the
Treasury
Department
the
upfront
money
through
the
public
assistance
program
of
FEMA
that
we're
going
to
receive.
So
this
is
really
bringing
in
bandwidth
and
powerhouse
in
to
the
EOC
as
part
of
the
finance
and
recovery
function.
D
H
So
in
that
info
memo,
could
you
go
into
a
little
bit
more
detail
once
it's
clear
what
that
firms
role
is
going
to
be
and
how
it'll
interplay
with
our
independent
auditor
so
that
we're
clear,
hopefully,
Joe
you'll,
have
additional
capacity
to
get
to
the
list
that
we
talked
about
earlier,
but
either
way.
I
know
we
have
full
confidence
in
you
and
your
department
to
carry
out
your
work.
G
C
A
C
G
E
Hello,
thank
you.
Yes,
thank
you
to
try
to
wax
of
lip
it
poetically
here.
You
know.
Thank
you
for
your
efforts
with
this
issue.
You
know
it
I
tried
to
say
yesterday
it
could
be
a
good
indicator
of
how
we
can
judge
how
to
talk
about
rent
forgiveness
issues
and
the
like.
So
so,
thank
you
for
your
efforts.
E
You
know
to
deal
with
Cobin
19.
Did
you
with?
What's
going
on
protest,
wise,
there's
a
lot
on
your
plates
right
now
and
it's
important
to
me.
It's
really
important
to
me
how
to
find
the
practices
from
before
kovat
19.
How?
What
are
our
good
practices
that
we
can
continue
through?
You
know
into
the
future,
and
how
can
how
can
you
know
the
the
protests
that
are
going
on
the
COBIT
issues?
How
can
that
relate
to
good
practices?
We
were,
you
know,
raring
and
ready
to
go
with,
and
that
includes
ideas
of
equity.
E
You
know
that
includes
you
know.
I
was
talking
about
technology
about
how
it
can
be.
You
know
minimal
use,
and
you
know
how
to
address
them.
Military
industrial
complex
and
the
idea
is
a
peace
instead
of
war.
That's
being
addressed
now
by
protest,
I
think
there's
a
number
of
issues
that
you
know
we're
ready
to
work
well
with
and
I
hope.
We
just
thank
you
for
your
efforts
at
this
time
and
how
we
can
learn
to
do
that
in
this
really
strange
time.
We're
in
thank
you.
A
H
K
A
L
Thanks
for
having
me
back,
I
wanted
to
thank
you
for
the
discussion
last
night
and
your
questions
and
I
obviously
wish
you
had
asked
more
questions
and
duck
deeper
and
I'm
disappointed
that
some
of
the
answers
you've
got
were.
Let's
call
it
biased
and
not
maybe
impartial,
advice
and
I.
Think
you
noticed
that
in
the
discussion
around
the
so-called
partnership
with
the
school
district
now,
for
example,
I
think
it
should
have
been
made
clearer
that
shortcut
provides
no
improved
access
to
Lupita's
power
to
Berryessa
Bart.
L
The
East
Bay
community's
staffs
to
us
and
DLR
have
been
very
clear
that
the
project
is
basically
useless
for
people
coming
from
anywhere
east
of
Oakland
Road,
and
this
might
not
be
a
highway
widening
project,
but
I
think
there
should
have
also
been
more
discussion
about
the
fact
that,
according
to
your
studies,
the
project
might
add
15,000
miles
15,000
per
day
to
our
roadway
system.
That's
not
induced
a
man
and
I
know
happy
happy
to
present
our
side
of
the
issue
in
more
detail
before
your
next
vote
on
this
project.
L
If
you're
interested
in
that's
yesterday,
the
people
I
did
talk
to
found
me
to
be
truthful
and
often
convincing.
What
I
really
wanted
to
know
is
that
Afiya
about
50
speakers
last
night,
not
one
spoken
favor
of
the
project,
not
one
you
will
say
this-
will
help
of
economic
growth
in
North,
San
Jose
I
talked
to
reps
from
both
the
leadership
group
and
SVO,
and
they
don't
see
this
project
as
essential
or
necessary
for
economic
growth.
You
say
this
will
help
with
housing.
L
Can
you
point
me
to
a
housing
advocate
that
race
I
know
what
you
want.
You
want
what's
right
for
the
city.
If
this
is
the
right
thing
shouldn't
there
be
more
people
publicly
supporting
you
and
if
there
aren't
really
people
supporting
you,
then
we
kind
of
get
into
the
question
of
what
does
that
say
for
our
democratic
process.
Thank.
E
Yes,
thank
you.
Thanks
for
the
words
of
the
last
speaker
thanks
a
lot
for
his
work.
What
the
City
of
City
San
Jose
government
is
currently
working
on
at
this
time
can
include,
after
years
of
finally
getting
two
years
or
finally,
getting
on
to
the
November
ballot,
the
IPA,
having
power
to
review
as
JPD
use.
Of
course,
issues
rules
and
open
government
meetings
are
are
learning
to
ask
if
there
can
be
better
public
request,
process
of
SJ,
pd
body,
camera
footage
and
other
cost-cutting
policy
change.
E
Ideas
within
city
government,
with
BIA
with
the
SJ
PD,
is
that
as
possible
during
this
time
of
kovat
19
from
initial,
understandable
fear
of
violence
and
the
unknown
early
Friday,
the
SJ
PD
use
of
flash
grenades,
tear
gas
rubber
bullets
will
have
to
be
reviewed,
police
protests
responses
and
how
to
perceive
the
threat
level
of
violence
will
have
to
be
reviewed
as
well.
Every
day
police
practices
around
the
country,
including
knee
holes,
chokehold
practices
and
other
use
of
force
issues
to
work
to
demilitarize.
The
police
makes
a
clear
decent
picture.
E
What
to
work
towards
and
accomplished
and
along
the
lines
of
how
I
asked
of
yourselves
to
look
at
more
peaceful,
minimal
use
practices
and
how
to
define
technology
needs
for
a
city
and
what
could
be
ways
to
allow
community
meeting
and
communication
that
can
be
respect
and
respect
civil
rights
that
will
protect
what
can
be
positive,
sustainable
and
less
harmful
to
human
health.
I
hope
we
all
can
be
open
as
individuals
and
as
people
of
local
communities
at
this
time.
Good
luck
in
our
work
at
this
time
to
all
of
us.
Thank
you.
Thank.
M
Hi
marshal
panel
I
have
ridden
of
light
rail
for
31
years
and
I
was
also
on
a
county
panel
on
which
accounts
are
County
Committee,
on
which
only
two
of
us
used
public
transportation,
I
attended
a
County
for
forum
on
Monday
and
I
was
very
upset
about
what
I
was
hearing
about.
The
opening
of
the
light
rail,
the
safe
operation
of
the
light
rail
is
a
matter
of
social,
economic
and
racial
justice.
By
its
own
surveys,
VTA
is
saying
that
74
percent
of
the
respondents
are
non-white.
M
Those
are
the
folks
that
ride
the
light
rail
disproportionately
seniors
disproportionately
poor
households
having
an
average
of
less
than
43
thousand
dollars
a
year,
households
during
the
presentation
they
talked
about
promoting
social
distancing
and
face
coverings.
I
could
not
speak
because
I
was
on
the
phone
for
hours
waiting,
but
I
had
to
go
to
another
meeting.
I
promoting
face
coverings
and
social
distancing
is
not
going
to
save
seniors
the
poor
and
people
of
color.
We
need
enforcement.
M
The
VTA
admitted
in
their
written
documentation,
which
I
have
downloaded
that
the
drivers
are
being
assaulted
when
they
ask
people
to
wear,
face,
masks.
I
know
our
City
Council.
Six
of
you
are
on
the
beautyrx
committee
I'm,
asking
that
you
stand
up
for
us.
We
need
to
be
protected,
DGA
has
admitted
they
cannot
enforce
the
social
distancing
and
the
face
coverings.
M
I
believe
that
the
poor
and
and
the
non-white
and
the
seniors
are
going
to
be
thrown
under
the
bus,
because
we're
not
important
and
that
they're
going
to
open
the
VTA
in
a
dangerous
manner
and
going
to
say
something
if
the
people
that
were
riding
the
VTA
were
affluent
folks
from
wherever
the
rich
neighborhoods
are
in
San
Jose,
we
wouldn't
be
having
this
discussion.
They
will
be
making
sure
that
we
were
protected
when
we
got
on
that
that
we're
not
and
so
I'm
asking
you
please
protect
us
and
do
not
throw
us
under
the
bus.
