A
You
alright
welcome
to
meeting
number
four
sag
members
in
public
a
few
housekeeping
things.
Please
make
sure
you
get
validated
before
the
end
of
the
meeting.
Several
of
us
got
blocked
from
getting
out
last
time,
so
it
was
an
interesting
exercise,
though.
So,
please
make
sure
you
get
validated
I.
Don't
want
that
to
happen
to
any
of
you.
I
do
want
to
introduce
someone,
lori
parks
Sorvino.
A
She
has
recently
been
hired
by
the
city
us
she
will
be
the
durham
station
area,
civic
engagement
manager,
so
she
is
going
to
be
stepping
in
you're
gonna
get
a
lot
of
emails
from
her
see
a
lot
less
of
me.
So
it'll
be
a
great
thing
for
you
all.
The
seriously
Lori's
got
a
great
background,
worked
beforehand
with
David
powers
and
associates
working
on
the
actual
Dehradun
station
area
plan
with
Seco
document,
so
very
rich
kind
of
history
in
the
area,
as
well
as
a
lot
of
transit
and
civic
engagement.
A
A
So
tonight
is
a
tonight
should
be
really
exciting.
All
of
you
started
sending
in
your
slide
decks
as
early
as
last
week,
and
just
looking
at
those
it
should
be
a
really
interesting
night.
A
lot
of
creativity
and
passion
went
into
those.
So
I
appreciate
that
it's
it's
always
great
for
you
guys
to
hear
from
one
another
onto
the
topic
of
our
most
controversial
subject.
So
far
amongst
you
guys
and
myself,
which
is
public
comment.
A
We
just
can't
seem
to
get
that
right.
So
I
did
have
conversations
with
our
city
attorney.
We
are
and
no
violations
whatsoever
thus
far,
and
we
do
have
some
flexibility
of
where
I
move
that
up
and
how
I
choose
to
do
that.
As
as
we
facilitate
this
group
together
for
tonight,
several
people
have
asked
if
they
could
speak
prior
to
the
night,
ending
because
there's
another
event
that
they
would
like
to
do
that
tonight.
A
So
what
I'm,
gonna
planning
on
doing
is
before
we
jump
into
the
TED
talks
and
the
presentation
handle
a
certain
amount
of
that
public
comment
up
front
and,
though,
for
those
who
don't
want
to
speak
and
speak
to
the
actual
presentations,
whether
it
be
Google
or
presentation
or
any
or
TED
talks,
those
people
that
did
not
go
before
the
meeting
would
be
able
to
speak
afterwards
during
public
comment.
So
just
a
show
of
hands
from
the
public
who's
interested
in
speaking
before
the
presentations
tonight
on
public
comment,
just
raise
them
high.
A
So
if
I
can
ask,
if
maybe
some
of
you
can
kind
of
come
over
there,
just
so
Matt
can
kind
of
better
orchestrate
that
so
I
don't
want
to
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we
get
into
the
all
the
presentations
tonight,
because
you
guys
did
spend
so
much
time
on
that.
So
Matt
will
facilitate
the
public
comment
for
us,
but
that
should
allow
some
of
these
individuals
who
have
other
commitments
tonight
to
be
able
to
speak
to
the
to
the
meeting.
With
that
I
know.
A
A
number
of
you
have
been
here
a
lot
lately
with
the
solution
groups
and
tonight
and
there's
a
solution
group
tomorrow
night.
So
thank
you
for
your
commitment.
That's
far,
it's
been
a
fun
interesting
process
kind
of
diving
a
little
bit
deeper,
like
I,
think
we
all
wanted
to
on
some
of
these
issues
and
I'm
excited
when
those
solution
groups
start
to
come
back-
and
you
know
start
talking
about
some
of
the
solutions
to
the
the
challenges
that
we've
been
talking
about.
C
Good
evening,
everyone
I
am
here
tonight
alone,
Dave
Javed
is,
is
not
able
to
make
it
tonight
so
I
apologize.
You
have
just
me
this
evening.
The
better
facilitator
is
not
here.
We
want
to.
We
have
a
really
packed
agenda
and
a
really
exciting
agenda
tonight.
There's
gonna
be
so
many
great
ideas
and
I
think
the
first
round
of
of
TED
talks
that
we
did
generated
a
lot
of
really
interesting
comments
and
thought.
So
our
agenda
tonight
is
we're
gonna
I'm,
sorry
got
it.
C
Sorry
right
in
the
way
see
I
told
you
Dave
should
have
been
here
so
we're
gonna
start
tonight.
We're
gonna
review
the
notes
from
last
time
really
quickly
and
then
we'll
do
public
comment.
I
think,
there's
seven
folks,
we'll
do
two
minutes
per
person
moving
on
then
to
Google's
early
design.
Thinking
for
the
dirt
on
stationery
and
Michael
Flynn
will
give
that
presentation.
There'll
be
some
time
for
for
Q&A
and
then
we're
gonna
jump
into
the
TED
talks
in
three
different
groups.
C
C
We
just
to
remind
everyone.
We
have.
We
have
group
agreements,
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we
are
all
following
these
agreements
and
and
respecting
one
another,
respecting
there's,
there's
different
opinions
and
differences
of
opinion
and
different
ideas
and
to
be
open
minded
to
allow
those
all
of
those
different
ideas
to
percolate.
C
We
we
are
last
saag
meeting
was
was
again
I
think
a
really
a
really
interesting
meeting
we
had.
We
have
the
the
notes
we,
let's
see,
the
notes
are
on
the
table
here.
The
meeting
minutes
from
the
last
time
I
think
we
need
a
agreement
on
a
motion
to
approve
the
minutes,
so
I
don't
think
we
we
didn't
do
that
correct
motion
to
approve
okay,
any
objections.
C
Okay
motion
passes.
So
then
the
the
meeting
focused
two
parts
first
on
what's
going
on
at
the
city
for
the
Deardon
station
area,
including
the
BART
extension,
electric
electrification
of
Cal,
train,
high
speed,
rail
and
then
the
station
area
design,
and
there
was
some
really
rich
discussion
afterwards,
dealing
with
station
design,
multimodal
transportation,
transit,
oriented
development
and
and
gentrification
and
the
impacts
from
examples
around
Europe.
We
then
had
our
five
members
of
the
SOG
do
their
their
TED
Talks
and
again
the
these.
C
It's
really
an
interesting,
a
real
variety
of
conversation
from
issues
that
are
going
on
now.
That
need
to
be
fixed
all
the
way
to
sort
of
big
picture
challenges
about
how
we
can
how
the
city
can
really
envision
this
area
and
and
make
make
the
dirt
on
stationary
extension
of
downtown
and
this
place
that
serves
all
people
of
the
city
and
so
the
again
rich
conversation.
There
are
more
detailed
notes
about
all
of
this,
so
that's
the
the
summary
again
I'm
moving
through
this
quickly.
C
We
there
were
some
some
takeaways
from
there
were
opportunities
and
critical
issues
and
challenges
that
were
identified
in
all
of
these.
What
what
we
found
in
this
is
that
they're,
great
ideas
and
great
nuggets
that
can
go
into
the
ideas
that
get
passed
on
and
could
be
include
in
the
MOU,
so
so
part
of
our
job
as
the
city
and
the
consultant
team
is
to
take
those
ideas
and
begin
to
organize
them.
C
B
B
We
like
to
know
what
is,
if
Google
has
a
plan
for
integration
of
our
community
and
how
the
community
is
going
to
be
integrated
into
this
Google
mission.
Please
take
note
of
that
because
you
cannot
I
mean
not
you,
but
Google
cannot
come
to
our
backyard
and
make
a
camping
there
without
a
deadline
of
how
he's
gonna
stay.
How
he's
gonna
integrate
the
community?
You
know
without
having
answers,
we
need
answers
and,
and
the
community
deserve
it.
Thank
you.
D
Hi
I'm
sandy
Perry
I'm
from
the
affordable
housing
network
of
Santa
Clara
County
I
was
fortunate
enough
to
go
to
the
housing
solutions
group
and
during
the
course
of
the
discussion,
it
became
very
clear
that
we
need
to
establish
a
clear
goal
in
this
project
of
zero
displacement.
I'm,
not
talking
about
mitigating
displacement,
I'm,
not
talking
about
dealing
with
displacement.
We
need
to
have
zero
net
displacement
in
order
to
do
that.
The
original
Deardon
plan
calls
for
a
an
affordable
housing
implementation
plan
and
we
need
to
have
one
here.
D
An
affordable
housing
implementation
plan
requires
at
least
a
preliminary
estimate
to
quantify
the
additional
affordable
housing
demands
that
the
Deardon
development
will
create,
broken
down
by
the
income
categories,
extremely
low
income,
very
low
income,
low
income
and
moderate.
We
need
to
plan
where
and
when
to
build
the
necessary,
affordable
housing
units,
both
inside
and
outside
the
station
area,
since
we've
already
established
that
the
project
is
going
to
impact
the
entire
city
and
finally,
we
need
to
identify
where
we're
going
to
get
the
funds
necessary
to
build
them.
San
Jose
is
housing.
D
D
It's
not
acceptable
to
say
it's
the
problem
at
the
North
County
if
we
want
to
come
up
with
a
plan
that
will
hold
North
County
accountable
to
build
the
housing
units
necessary
to
house
the
workers
at
this
project-
that's
okay,
but
if
we
don't
do
that,
then
we
have
to
take
responsibility
when
it
comes
to
the
housing
crisis.
Hopes
and
prayers
are
no
more
an
acceptable
solution
than
they
are
for
addressing
gun
violence,
as
the
mayor
has
said,
failing
to
plan
means
planning
to
fail.
F
Here,
I'm,
a
lifelong
resident
of
San,
Jose
and
I
am
here
to
call
for
a
an
end
to
this
committee
and
an
end
to
this
project.
I,
don't
recall
the
city
ever
engaging
the
community
to
even
enter
these
negotiations.
It
is
comical
that
when
it
comes
to
things
the
community
needs
like
housing
like
space
for
our
unhoused.
There
are
no
obstacles
or
there
are
obstacles.
There's
the
NIMBYs
there's
the
landlord's.
We
can't
overcome
these
community
groups,
but
when
it
comes
to
tech
corporations,
these
obstacles
do
not
exist.
We
enter
exclusive
negotiating
agreements.
F
We
sign
non-disclosure
agreements,
it
is
a
farce
and
to
say
that
this
this
committee
represents
the
interests
of
all
of
San.
Jose
is
also
a
farce.
I
don't
see
the
east
side
the
south
side,
the
unhoused
represented
here
I,
see
a
lot
of
people
who
might
benefit
from
the
completion
of
this
project.
So
you
know,
we've
got
to
talk
about
public
land
for
public
good.
The
the
city
never
never
engaged
the
community
about
about
that
discussion.
So,
yes,
we
need.
We
need
to
end
this
committee
and
this
project.
G
For
giving
me
the
time,
my
name
is
Andrew
I'm,
a
food
service
worker
I
live
in
a
converted,
garage
half
a
converted
garage
which
consumes
about
half
of
my
monthly
income,
and
if
this
tech
campus
were
built
and
20,000
highly
paid
tech
workers
came
here
without
20,000
and
housing
units
available
for
them
and
that
drove
up
the
housing
prices.
I,
don't
know
what
I
would
do.
I,
don't
know
what
my
co-workers
would
do.
I,
don't
know
my
friends
would
do
I,
don't
know.
G
My
neighbors
would
do
so
I'm
just
here,
because
I'm
scared
and
I'm
scared,
because
I
think
history
shows
us
in
Mountain,
View
and
Palo
Alto
in
San,
Francisco
and
Cupertino.
When
these
campuses
come
in
working
in
middle-class
folks
get
forced
out,
they
get
forced
out
of
their
communities,
they
get
forced
out
of
their
the
Bay
Area.
Sometimes
they
get
forced
out
of
housing
altogether
to
live
under
overpasses
and
bridges,
and
so
we
don't
know
how
many
people
are
gonna
be
displaced.
Exactly
we
know.
If
this
campus
gets
built,
it'll
be
some,
it
won't
be
none.
G
It
won't
be
everyone,
but
there
will
be
a
number
there'll
be
hundreds
and
thousands
of
people,
probably
who
I
can
be
able
to
live
here
and
for
the
members
of
the
advisory
group.
It
seems
like
there's
us,
there's
some
numbers
small
enough,
that
it
would
be
okay,
that
that
people
would
be
okay
to
endorse
this
project.
If
we
can
keep
the
displacement
down
to
I,
don't
know
how
many
families
so
I
guess
that's
my
question
for
the
people
sitting
at
this
table.
G
How
many
families
are
we
willing
to
sacrifice
for
progress
and
innovation
and
grants
and
tax
revenue?
Is
it
ten?
Is
it
a
hundred?
Is
it
a
thousand?
Is
it
ten
thousand
how
many
families
would
be
a
small
enough
number
that
we
want
to
build
this
project
on
their
backs
and
on
their
suffering
and
potentially
on
their
lives?
Thank.
H
Name
is
Donna
Wallach
I've
been
living
in
San
Jose,
since
1997,
renting
all
the
time
and
every
time
I've
had
to
move
numerous
times,
because
landlords
always
change
their
minds
and
every
time
I've
had
to
move.
It
gets
more
and
more
difficult
to
find
another
place
that
I
can
afford
to
rent
I
ride.
A
bicycle.
I
do
not
own
a
car,
so
I
need
to
be
somewhat
close
to
the
downtown
area.
H
Because
of
my
activities
and
I
am
sure
that
if
Google
comes
to
town,
it
will
be
impossible
for
me
to
find
a
place
to
live,
not
only
because
of
lack
of
housing
but
because
I'm
positive,
the
rents
are
going
to
skyrocket.
I
am
absolutely
against
Google
coming
to
town.
We
don't
need
them
here.
In
San,
Jose,
they're
gonna
get
all
kinds
of
subsidies
and
tax
breaks,
and
we,
the
people,
especially
those
of
us
who
earn
little
money,
are
gonna,
be
taxed
up
up
to
more
than
what
we
can
afford
to
pay.
H
I
Just
I
really
want
to
be
here
to
it
to
light
a
fire
under
moral
imagination
and
in
a
lot
of
you
are
my
friends
and
I
believe
that
we
want
this
to
benefit
the
whole
city
and
I
and
I
believe
that's
possible
and
I
believe
that
this
is
a
really
important
turning
point.
This
is
an
opportunity
to
do
it
different
than
others.
Other
cities
have
done
and
I
hope
that
you
have
that
this
design
includes
empathy
and
justice
as
much
as
aesthetics.
C
G
My
name
is
James
scarpulla
I'm,
a
resident
of
District,
three
and
I'm
here
to
speak
in
solidarity
with
the
unhoused
people
of
San
Jose.
The
homeless
situation
in
San
Jose
is
not
a
crisis.
It
is
a
a
strophe
this.
This
sag
group
does
not
even
take
into
consideration
what
we
will
see
if
a
tech
campus
such
as
Google
comes
to
San
Jose.
G
D
H
Good
evening
my
name
is
Patricia:
I've
lived
in
San
Jose
for
more
than
30
years
and
I
have
seen
my
brother,
his
family
and
my
mother
move
away
like
three
hours
away
from
here,
and
my
husband
and
I
have
been
struggling
with
our
five
kids
to
keep
them
in
their
neighborhood.
Their
schools
and
it's
been
really
hard.
Rents
are
really
crazy
here
and
it.
It
just
keeps
us
alive
that
we
want
to
buy
a
house
here
in
San
Jose,
and
we
have
that
dream.
But
it
just
seems
like
that
dream
is
gonna,
stay
a
dream.
H
It
just
doesn't
look
reachable
at
this
point
and
now
that
my
five
kids
are
grown
and
they're
moving
out
of
the
house
they're
living
what
we
have
been
struggling
with
for
many
years-
and
we
don't
know
if
they
are
gonna,
move
out
three
hours
away
from
here
or
if
we
are
some
days.
So
it's
it's
done
uncertain
to
live
in
San
Jose
point
we
don't
know
what
the
future
will
bring.
Thank
you
thank.
C
J
So
I
I
grew
up,
lived
in
the
East
Side
San
Jose,
my
whole
life,
and
so
just
listening
to
most
of
the
people
that
have
spoke
already.
You
know
same
same
type
of
thing
where
it's
just
wondering:
what's
gonna
be
happening,
you
know,
we've
already
had
this
isn't
anything
new.
You
know
people
have
been
moving
out
of
the
city
for
a
long
time
and
you
guys
don't
care.
J
Of
us
doing
anything
about
it,
we're
just
allowing
more
corporations
more
private
on
land.
More,
you
know
corporate
interest
to
take
up
the
area
from
the
people,
and
then
your
only
reply
to
us
is
the
you
hope:
the
new
buses,
the
new
light
rail
stations,
all
that
stuff.
We
can
live
outside
the
city
and
you
guys
will
transport
us
in
you
know,
that's
a
that's
the
life
that
you
guys
paint
for
us.
We
might
be
able
to
own
something
outside,
but
you
know
what
type
of
mentality
are
we
really
like?
J
L
J
Mom's
been
going
through
like
this,
and
we
have
all
this.
You
know
mental
health
going
around
with
people
when
are
we
ever
gonna
take
care
of
ourselves
and
the
people
that
have
been
living
here
for
so
long
and
I.
Just
wonder
any
question
and
I'm
just
waiting
for
the
next
day.
You
know
y'all
planning
all
this
stuff
and
we're
just
waiting
to
see
what
what's
next.
So,
what's
next
yeah.
C
Thank
you
all
right.
Thank
you.
Everyone
for
the
for
the
comments
again.
We're
gonna
have
public
comment
again
for
those
who
haven't
spoken
at
the
end.
After
all
of
the
presentations
I
am
now
Lee.
Did
you
want
to
okay
I'm,
going
to
turn
it
back
over
to
Lee
and
we're
gonna
start
the
the
presentations
and
then
discussion
yeah.
A
So
I
don't
have
too
much
to
say
other
than
we're,
gonna
jump
in
to
Google's
presentation
and
then
we're
gonna
transition
into
the
TED
Talks
and,
as
Matt
mentioned,
you
guys
are
chunked
up
in
three
panels.
So
we'll
take
a
quick
kind
of
transition
after
we're
done
with
this
presentation.
So
there's
gonna
be
this
presentation,
some
Q&A
by
you
guys
and
and
Joe
and
Matt,
and
then
we'll
transition
into
the
first
panel.
So
with
that,
I
want
to
introduce
you
to
a
familiar
face
who
presented
here
the
other
week,
Joe
van
Bellingham.
E
E
In
my
previous
presentation,
we
outlined
our
principles
of
place
and
the
need
for
an
approach
to
the
creation
of
place
that
considers
community
nature,
innovation
and
economics
in
a
balanced
way
equation
a
place
that
allows
the
community
in
Google
to
thrive
together
and
what
I
outlined
is
place.
This
isn't
about
buildings.
It's
about
the
urban
experiences
people
crave
it
the
programming
of
these
experiences
in
the
creation
of
community,
such
as
the
provision
of
affordable
housing
and
job
creation,
programs
and
etc.
E
Today,
Michael
Flynn,
our
urban
design
lead,
is
going
to
share
some
of
his
early
design.
Thinking
focus
on
the
physical
and
experiential
components
of
place,
so
not
things
related
to
affordable
housing
or
job
creation,
which
are
all
important,
but
today
is
more
about
sharing
some
preliminary
design,
horizontal
design
concept,
the
concepts
that
are
based
upon
feedback
from
the
several
community
walks
that
we've
already
undertaken
and
also
listening
to
comments
from,
say,
sag.
E
We
want
to
express
how
enjoyable
and
import
of
these
first
walks
with
the
neighborhood
neighborhood
groups
have
been
it's
clear
to
us.
How
passionate
the
individuals
we
met
are
about
their
community
learning,
how
their
neighborhoods
have
changed
over
the
years,
what
they
like,
they
don't
like
what
their
operations
are,
what
their
concerns
are
and
if
they
have
for
dear
Don,
has
really
got
us
thinking.
M
A
A
So,
thank
you,
sac
members
for
spending
the
time
with
us
just
so.
Everyone
else
is
aware,
as
facilitator
under
the
Brown
Act
I
decided
to
adjourn
us
into
closed
session
very
quickly
which,
under
the
Brown
Act
we
are
allowed.
The
public
is
not
allowed
to
interrupt
a
legislative
body
and
their
proceedings.
So
what
we
did
was
we
recessed
into
closed
session,
to
have
a
conversation
on
how
we
proceed
tonight
with
the
rest
of
the
meeting
given
the
full
agenda,
so
the
SAG
members
would
like
to
proceed
with
the
Google
presentation
and,
however
many
TED
Talks.
A
E
Great
I
think
I.
Remember
where
I
was
you
know.
I
I
wanted
to
acknowledge
that
when
we
were
walking
through
the
communities
it
was
really
inspiring
for
us.
You
know
we
met
many
individuals
that
have
been
in
the
community
for
several
decades
and
how
they
shared
with
us
how
their
kin,
their
neighborhood,
has
changed
over
the
years.
What
their
feelings
about,
how
to
make
sure
that
those
neighborhoods
got
integrated
into
Deardon
station.
E
E
They're,
just
ideas,
and
you
know
we're
committed
to
a
collaborative
partner
in
the
development
of
dear
Donna,
and
we
believe
that
the
priorities
concerns
aspirations
of
all
stakeholders
must
be
considered
as
we
work
together
over
the
course
of
the
next
several
years
to
bring
a
shared
vision
together
with
that
I'm
gonna
pass
it
over
to
Michael.
For
for
those
of
you
who
have
not
met
Michael
Michael
works
at
Google,
as
our
urban
design
lead,
he's
very
passionate
about
the
design
of
places
prior
to
joining
Google.
E
He
lived
in
New,
York
City
and
worked
on
several
leading
mixed
use.
Urban
development
projects
around
the
world,
including
on
the
Highland
project
in
New,
York
City
and
both
Michael
and
I
and
heavy-r,
will
be
available.
If
you
have
any
questions
at
the
end
of
the
presentation,
so
I'll
turn
it
over
to
Michael.
N
Thank
you,
Joe
I'd,
like
to
just
start
by
saying
thank
you
to
the
city
for
organizing
this.
This
is
this
platform
for
us
to
engage
with
the
community.
Thank
you
to
the
sag
members
for
being
so
vocal
for
us.
This
is
really
just
a
starting
point
to
enable
us
to
learn
and
listen
to
inform
our
early
design
ideas
and
how
we
begin
to
to
articulate
that
in
a
spatial
way.
N
You
know
we're
we're
very
early
on
in
the
process,
and
what
we're
looking
at
today
is
is
how
we're
beginning
to
to
use
our
integration
with
the
community
and
the
community
input
to
inform
our
early
design
ideas
and,
and
what
we're
meaning
specifically
is-
is
this
idea
of
an
experiential
framework?
How
do
we
connect
authentically
to
community
that
exists
today?
How
do
we
connect
people
places
and
experiences
in
a
way?
That's
not
about
buildings,
but
a
way
of
connecting
experiences
together,
assets
that
exist
in
San
Jose,
the
neighborhoods
that
are
flourishing
today?
N
How
can
we
the
elaborates
and
and
be
part
of
that
composition?
And
then
you
know
how
do
we
continue
to
work
together
with
the
community
city
and
stakeholders
to
develop
this
shared
vision?
This
is
very
early,
but
but
how
do
we
take
this
and
learn
more
from
from
the
presentations
that
you're
about
to
give
this
evening
and
the
other
components
that
we've
heard
Joe
want
talked
through
some
of
the
principles
of
place
previously
in
his
presentation,
and
we
wanted
to
touch
on
this
again.
N
We
really
think
it's
very
important
to
understand
the
opportunity
of
balance.
You
know
how
community
is
about
people
places
are
about
people
and
the
connections
between
them
innovation,
the
opportunity
for
innovation.
How
can
we
really
strive
to
have
a
healthy
disregard
for
the
impossible
to
overcome
obstacles
create
a
future
here
in
this?
N
In
this
place,
nature,
the
well-being
of
people
depends
on
the
health
of
the
planet
and
economics
to
invest
in
bold
ideas
that
create
replicable
solutions
for
a
better
future,
and
we
think
this
together
creates
a
real
opportunity
for
balance,
and
the
balance
every
place
requires
this
idea
of
balance
and
the
organization
of
these.
These
principles
as
a
cause
of
collective,
you
know
working
with
the
community
to
identify
important
opportunities
that
will
continue
to
inform
our
early
design
ideas.
N
We've
began
to
incorporate
some
of
the
feedback
in
the
public
comment
from
the
presentation
Joe
gave
on
the
principles
in
place,
which
has
been
fantastic.
You
know
the
the
the
ongoing
saga
discussion
and
the
TED
talks
have
been
really
exciting.
We're
looking
forward
to
hearing
more
this
this
evening,
the
this
solution
groups,
the
SAG
is
leading,
we
think,
is
just
really
exciting:
to
incorporate
and
listen
further
on
land
use
and
design,
Housing
and
Development
displacement,
public
spaces
and
neighborhoods
transportation,
access
jobs
and
education
as
fundamental
to
our
design
ideas.
N
As
we
progress
you
moving
forward
from
the
principal's
place
presentation,
we
felt
it
was
critical
for
us
to
really
learn
more
about
the
neighborhoods
that
were
a
part
of
so
we've
started
a
series
of
neighborhood
walks.
We've
gone
through
a
few
of
them.
They
Kate
Hill
Georgetown
plant
51,
the
delmas
Park
neighborhood
North,
Willow,
Glen
lofts
on
the
Alameda,
the
Alameda
Business
Association,
st.
Leo's
neighborhood
Gardner
neighborhood.
We're
really
looking
to
continue
to
expand
this
opportunity
and
incorporate
a
much
broader
area.
N
Looking
at
neighborhoods,
you
know
to
the
east
and
to
the
south
as
well.
We've
heard
a
lot
from
the
community
we're
really
starting
by
listening.
How
can
we,
how
can
we,
how
can
we
allow
this
process
to
to
result
in
something
that's
different?
How
can
we
create
a
place
that
connects
people
provides
opportunity
for
poor
community
and
and
really
thrives
on
this
creation
of
experiences
and
linking
experiences
together?
So
we've
organized
what
we've
heard
into
these
five
sort
of
categories
around
nature
and
ecology?
N
N
You
know,
we've
heard
a
tremendous
amount
around
connectivity
and
the
opportunity
to
connect
broader
areas
in
neighborhoods
of
San
Jose,
safe
crossing
over
280
on
Bird.
This
is
something
that
we've
heard
quite
a
bit
about
Deardon
station
as
an
amenity
in
a
catalyst
not
not
as
a
barrier
or
a
wall
as
its
as
it's
currently
conceived
and
perceived
from
some
of
the
adjacent
neighborhoods
built
environment,
the
vibrant
mixed-use
communities,
places
for
small
businesses,
an
incubation
preserve
historic
and
cultural
assets
and
buildings.
N
The
opportunity
for
early
place
activation
community
well-being,
respecting
existing
neighborhoods
we've
heard
a
lot
about
displacement.
Gentrification
concerns
affordability,
as
we
heard
tonight.
Oh
extremely
valid
concerns.
How
do
we
collectively
be
part
of
this
solution
going
forward,
respect
local
context,
culture
and
history,
opportunity
places
where
Google
and
the
community
can
thrive
together,
connecting
people
to
jobs,
opportunity
for
job
creation,
skill
training,
opportunities
for
construction
and
community
jobs,
opportunity
to
connect
San
Jose
to
the
talent
and
education
skills
and
training
opportunities
as
well?
N
You
know
we're
looking
forward
to
this
list
continuing
if
you
know
we're
hearing
more
from
the
SAG
presentations
and
more
neighborhood
walks
as
this
process
continues,
but
today
we're
really
looking
at
at
these
three
categories,
we're
looking
at.
How
can
we
take
what
we've
heard
and
begin
to
inform
a
spatial
framework
on
the
horizontal
that
that
is
about
connecting
people,
places
and
experiences
and
we're
organizing
this
into
these
these
streets
or
themes
around
connectivity,
community
well-being
and
nature
and
ecology?
And
it
really
is
about
the
space
between
the
buildings?
N
We
can
look
at
examples
of
what
this
might
mean
right,
so
the
Highline
Park,
for
example,
in
New
York
City,
is,
is
it
is
a
Civic
space
that
connects
people
to
place
and
allows
the
community
to
build
around
that
public
space.
The
Brooklyn
Bridge
Park
Inn
in
Brooklyn.
It
did
a
tremendous
amount
of
community
rebuilding
for
for
the
adjacent
neighborhoods,
providing
an
opportunity
for
open
space
activity,
recreation,
habitat
ecology
for
that
neighborhood.
The
Atlanta
BeltLine
is
a
great
example
of
creating
an
economic
engine
for
a
city
that
really
is
striving
to
connect
to
itself.
N
Can
we
take
these
things
that
have
been
extremely
successful
around
urban
areas
and
begin
to
think
about?
How
can
we,
how
can
we
think
in
a
way
that
is
Akande,
authentically
San,
Jose
and
and
and
connects
people
places
and
experiences
for
for
what
we're?
Looking
at
here
so
connecting
people
and
diverse
experiences,
we've
heard
it's
a
lot
from
the
community.
The
neighborhood
walks
that
we've
been
a
part
of
you
know
safe
bike
and
pedestrian
connections
to
surrounding
neighborhoods
in
downtown.
How
can
we
really
do
that
in
a
meaningful
way?
N
N
How
can
we
celebrate
community
diversity,
art
and
culture
in
a
meaningful
way?
How
can
we
provide
diverse
experiences
that
build
from
San
Jose
to
diverse
people,
culture,
art
in
history?
We've
heard
a
lot
about
the
dancing
Pig
sign.
We
should
keep
this
it's
fantastic.
It
should
be
part
of
our
thinking,
the
the
Victorian
historic
neighborhood.
You
know
the
station.
N
How
can
we
regenerate
nature?
We've
heard
a
lot
about
daylighting,
los
gatos
Creek,
connecting
los
gatos
Creek
Trail
to
join
with
the
Guadalupe
River
Trail.
This
is
a
really
fantastic
opportunity
to
not
only
enabling
connectivity
north-south,
but
utilizing
this
as
a
ecological
corridor
to
reimagine
how
nature
is
part
of
our
urban
environments.
N
So
if
we
look
at
this
map
as
far
as
context
and
we're
where
we
are
starting
from
understanding
our
you
know
the
dirt
on
station
area
and
and
the
the
neighborhoods
and
the
culture
and
the
people
that
are
around
you
a
bit
of
context
right
in
the
middle
of
the
map,
if
you
can
see
clearly
I
was.
Is
that
the
point
where
the
confluence
of
the
Guadalupe
River
and
los
gatos
Creek
come
together
just
adjacent
to
the
SI
P
Center?
N
We
have
Deardon
station
for
just
south
of
that
the
280
corridor
at
the
bottom
of
the
page,
and
you
can
see
City
Hall
plaza
towards
towards
the
east.
You
know
how
can
we
start
with
this
this
this
palette,
this
this
this
framework
and
begin
to
explore
opportunities
of
connecting
nature,
people
and
experiences,
and
we
have
four
primary
ideas
of
how
we
could
begin
to
think
about
this.
There's
four
corridors
for
experiencial
threads
that
we
think
could
be
really
exciting
opportunity
for
us
to
organize
our
design.
N
Thinking
for
the
Deardon
station
area
that
connects
to
the
broader
San
Jose
and
provides
a
framework
for
us
to
think
of
a
way
to
build
a
catalyst,
a
design
catalyst
to
create
place
here,
dear
Don.
The
first
is
this
idea
of
the
los
gatos
linear
park,
the
Paseo
San
Fernando,
cultural
and
innovation,
walk,
which
is
the
yellow
corridor
moving
north
and
south,
and
then
this
idea
of
a
social
and
commercial
loop
we'll
talk
through
each
of
these
layers
in
more
detail
and
then
circle
back
on
this.
N
Los
gatos
linear
park,
the
the
daylighting
of
the
creek,
we
think,
is
really
exciting.
Can
we
do
this
in
a
meaningful
way?
There's
there's
real
challenges
to
do
this.
You
know
there
the
intersection
it
Montgomery
and
Bird
and
autumn,
where
it
all
those
intersect
Park
there
is
it's
an
incredibly
complicated
intersection
and
mostly
asphalt.
N
How
can
we
imagine
a
reality
that
freeze
this
face
up
in
a
way
that
enables
that
creek
to
be
day
lit
and,
in
a
part
of
this
place,
there's
already
incredible
habitat
in
wildlife
here,
the
Guadalupe
in
particular
at
the
confluence
point
now,
the
Beavers
and
the
salmon
apparently
have
been
spine
here
that
we'll
see
if,
if
we
can
build
upon
that
and
how
do
we
connect?
You
know
this.
This
trail
network
to
be
cohesive
with
the
Guadalupe
River
River
Trail.
N
We
love
the
idea
of
the
Paseo.
We
think
it's
a
really
exciting
aspect
of
San
Jose.
Can
we
build
on
this
idea?
You
know,
we've
heard
a
lot
about
safe
bike
and
in
pedestrian
connectivity
from
the
west
to
the
east.
We
see
you
know
a
real
opportunity
to
to
maybe
rethink
the
station
in
a
way
that
that
could
provide
that
that
linkage
from
the
from
st.
Leo's
and
in
Cahill
to
deer
it
on
across
Los
Gatos
Creek
into
the
Guadalupe
River
Park,
and
to
downtown
connecting
San
Jose
State
to
the
to
the
Rose
Garden.
N
Last
year
spur
organized
the
trip
with
the
knight
Foundation
and
the
transit
agencies
to
go
to
Holland
to
explore
different
train
stations
to
see
what
is
what
is
possible
and
one
of
those
stations
that
really
resonated
was
the
Rotterdam
Central
Station.
When
you
arrive
at
Rotterdam,
you
feel
you're
part
of
the
city.
You
have
arrived
and
you're
part
of
that
urban
fabric.
It's
a
Plaza,
it's
not
a
wall.
It
really
is
a
fantastic
expression
of
architecture
and
urban
gesture.
It's
a
civic
space.
Can
we
think
of
Deardon
station
as
an
intermodal
facility.
N
That
really
becomes
an
arrival
point.
It's
integrated
in
to
San
Jose,
you
know:
can
we
think
about
organizing
the
the
tracks
in
a
way
that
is
slightly
lifted
above
grade
to
provide
contiguous
access
from
Kate
Hill
Park
dear
it
on
you
know,
and
you
can
imagine
a
Plaza
out
in
front
of
the
station
that
could
be
an
opportunity
for
farmers,
markets
and
activities
and
at
a
place
for
people
to
congregate
in
to
really
be
part
of
this
place.
N
You
can
imagine
this
corridor
connecting
San
Jose
State
downtown
with
dear
Adan,
the
residential
neighborhoods
to
the
west
and
and
Santa
Clara
University
to
further
to
the
west
and
the
experiences
along
this
corridor.
We
could
imagine
being
very
human
scale,
that's
boutique
and
and
a
variety
of
diverse
retail
opportunities,
that's
embedded
in
San,
Jose
sculture
and
an
expressive
expression
of
where,
where
the
retail
culture
is
going
today,
you
know
there's
already
some
fantastic
shops
popping
up.
You
know
the
bakery.
N
This
is
Monsanto.
Claire
is
fantastic,
so
the
second
second
floor,
second
story,
bakery
and
and
in
the
the
project
that
just
opened
on
the
the
reconverting.
The
the
parking
into
into
a
retail
opportunity
for
for
for
women
led
businesses,
I
think,
is
a
really
fantastic
example
of
what
placemaking
could
be
here
along
the
Paseo
I
think
that
project
is
referred
to
as
there's
a
moment,
but
something
that's
very,
quite
exciting.
N
The
north-south
connection-
you
know,
we've
heard
a
lot
about
bird
Avenue
and
mean
with
the
neighborhood
groups.
You
know
the
children
from
Delmas
have
to
walk
across
bird
to
get
to
their
school,
which
is
on
the
other
side
of
280
the
picture
there
you
can
see
in
the
middle.
Our
colleague
Ricardo
took
this
picture.
You
can
see
the
children
trying
to
navigate
through
this
incredibly
complicated
web
of
trucks
and
cars
and
traffic.
N
Similarly,
the
neighborhoods
that
are
adjacent
to
the
existing
rail
line.
We
talked
a
bit
about
the
the
Deardon
station
and
the
opportunities
of
slightly
raising
this.
This
elevation,
you
know
of
the
tracks.
This
is,
are
a
way
that
we
can
navigate
through
the
design
of
the
station
in
a
way
that
that
could
prevent
further
displacement
and
disconnection
in
these
neighborhoods.
You
know
to
to
really
provide
a
solution,
that's
integrated
and
and
an
innovative
in
a
way
that
preserves
these
neighborhoods
preserves
these
these
homes
and
and
further
connects
these
these
communities.
N
You
there's
some
fantastic
buildings
on
site
there
there's
a
grittiness
to
this
place
that
we
love.
You
know
there's
a
picture
of
the
the
brick
building
and
there's
many
more
again
the
dancing
pig
signed,
the
murals.
All
of
these
things
can
be
really
fantastic
and
incorporated
into
what
we're
calling
this
as
culture
and
innovation
walk
that
connects
safely
in
neighborhoods
around
Gardner
community
and
Willow
Glen
across
across
the
280
and
connecting
north
to
the
station,
and
this
can
be
a
real
expression
of
place
and
an
innovation
for
San
Jose.
Can
this?
N
Can
the
station
have
a
sort
of
a
market
in
the
front
of
it,
something
that
similar
to
the
San
Francisco
Ferry
Building?
We
get
very
distinct
and
unique
retail
opportunities
that
extend
outward
into
a
market
Plaza
and
begin
to
inform
what
that
that
that
area
could
be
and
how
we
can
imagine
that
neighborhood
and
connecting
north
past
the
s
AP
Center,
really
embracing
the
the
culture
of
the
Sharks
and
the
concerts
at
night.
We
think
this
is
a
fantastic
amenity
to
have
and
dear
Don.
N
We
really
need
to
celebrate
that
culture
and
enhance
that
as
part
a
part
of
this
place.
So
you
can
imagine
the
the
experiences
here
being
quite
different
indistinct
one.
That's
more
around
culture,
about
pop
up
the
grittiness
of
place,
the
authenticity
of
San,
Jose
and,
and
one
that
really
strives
to
to
embrace
this,
this
innovation
ecosystem
in
a
way
that
displays
that
you
know
the
richness
of
San
Jose,
the
last
one
would
talk
to.
The
fourth
component
is
what
we're
referring
to
as
the
social
commercial
loop.
N
You
know
we
talked
a
bit
about
this,
this
cultural
aspect
of
the
Sharks
and
and
the
game-day
the
events
the
concerts
from
San
Pedro
market
and
the
square
there
you
know
it's,
it
really
is
a
celebration.
It's
it's
a
it's
a
parade
that
that
the
you
know
the
that
really
draws
people
in
a
long,
Santa
Clara
and
on
the
west
side
of
Santa
Clara.
There's
some
really
exciting
things
happening
as
far
as
pop
ups
and
restaurants
and-
and
you
have
the
Whole
Foods-
and
there
really
is
this.
This
is
excitement
happiness,
vibrancy
along
Santa
Clara.
N
N
You
know
it
can
we
can
we
celebrate
this
corridor
with
the
use
of
art
and
cultural
exhibit
similar
to
what
we
see
happening
today
in
the
city
hall
plaza
into
this
network,
which
is
similar
to
a
loop
of
sorts
that
it
really
begins
to
frame
this
opportunity
of
connecting
to
the
broader
San
Jose
and
inform
this
commercial
component
for
for
cultural
integration,
different
new
future
modes
of
transportation
and
getting
around.
Obviously,
we've
seen
a
lot
about
the
the
scooters
zipping
around
town.
N
You
can
imagine
this
being
a
very
exciting
experience
that
you
know
this
is
this
loop
begins
to
link
these
experiences
together
in
a
very,
very
distinct
way,
which
brings
us
to
the
composite.
You
know
these
four
pieces,
these.
These
four
corridors
for
connecting
experiences
together,
begins
to
inform
how
we
would
begin
to
think
about
place
here
in
in
the
Deardon
station
area.
The
four
colors
are
aligned
with
those
broader
moves,
so
a
bit
of
orientation.
You
can
see
the
sa
P
Center
just
to
the
to
the
right
side
of
number.
Four.
N
The
green
line
would
be
Los
Gatos
Creek
at
the
station,
just
behind
the
orange
line
there,
and
so
you
can.
You
can
see
how
our
thinking
could
become
become
a
catalyst
for
creating
place
here
in
the
area.
That's
it's
about
connecting
people,
places
and
experiences
that
begins
from
the
broader
San
Jose
so
beginning
with
how
connects
outwards
into
informing
what
this
space
is
within
the
within
the
district.
So
we
walked
through
this.
N
In
conclusion,
you
know
the
these
four
components
we
think
are
most
critical
to
create
balance
a
catalyst
for
creating
place,
but
are
in
imbalance
with
community
nature,
innovation,
economics.
This
really
is
a
starting
point,
but
we
feel
it's
it's
it's
one
that
is
quite
exciting
for
us.
We're
looking
forward
to
hearing
more
from
this
TED
Talks,
the
more
neighborhood
walks
that
we're
going
to
continue
doing,
to
continue
understanding
in
a
more
comprehensive
way,
ideas
and
opportunities
to
inform
our
our
these
early
design.
N
C
Michael,
thank
you
for
the
thoughtful
presentation.
Clearly,
you've
spent
a
lot
of
time
in
the
area.
Thinking
about
the
about
the
place
and
the
assets
in
the
community.
We
have
some
time
I.
Think
now
you
know
we.
Obviously
the
agenda
we
had
planned
is
no
longer
our
agenda
for
this
evening.
So
you
know
in
a
sense,
let's
sort
of
take
a
breath
and
we
have
a
great
opportunity
now
for
for
all
of
you
to
ask
questions,
give
reflections
bring
up
things
that
maybe
you
think
they
hadn't
thought
about
or
things
that
you
liked.
C
We
will
go
around
the
room,
I
guess
we'll
start
over
here
with
with
Nadia,
and
we
can
move
around
and
then
come
back
again
and
please
remember
to
to
state
your
nickel.
You
lost
your
name,
please
remember,
to
state
your
name
and
your
organization
so
that
everyone
in
the
in
the
community
can
can
hear
and
know
who
you
are
and
because
it's
all
being
recorded.
Okay,
Nadia.
I
Of
Silicon
Valley,
okay,
it's
on
okay.
So
this
is
interesting
and
you
know
it
sounds
great
I'm.
You
know,
I
have
a
question
about
where
Google
fits
into
this
vision.
Like
do
you
envision,
because
you
know
we're
hearing
that
you're
buying
buildings,
like
you
know,
in
certain
places
like
do
you
envision
that
there's
like
a
campus,
that
a
part
of
this
that's
like
connected
in
all
these
like
four
or
areas
that,
like
you,
know,
people
bike
from
like
the
Los
Gatos
trail
to
like
that,
like?
E
Some
of
the
primary
thinking
is
obviously
this
being
a
mixed-use
place.
You
know
so
a
component
of
the
site
being
were
the
campus
or
the
office.
Workers
are
kind
of
envisioning
in
front
of
the
station
to
be
that
mixed-use
really
permeable
space
of
residential
and
retail.
You
know
next
to
the
Sharks
Stadium.
E
You
could
see
probably
some
events
centres,
things
like
that
and
then
obviously
residential
mixed
in
on
the
broader
240
acres,
as
well,
so
really
a
mixed-use
but
trying
to
concentrate
the
office
in
one
zone
because
we,
you
know
our
people
work
better
when
we're
close
together
and
can
collaborate
but
really
want
that
heart
in
front
of
the
station
to
be
the
heartbeat.
You
know
where
it's
really
mixed
use:
lots
of
residential
different
retail
experiences.
E
B
Hi
I'm,
Kathy,
Sutherland
and
I
represent
the
dumbest
Park
neighborhood
and
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
for
getting
us
back
to
the
point
where
we
can
dream
for
so
long
through
the
economy
and
through
the
loss
of
some
of
the
things
that
the
city's
to
have
the
tools,
the
cities
to
be
able
to
use
to
encourage
development.
We've
been
told,
so
many
things
were
not
possible.
B
You've
brought
us
back
to
the
or
me
personally
to
the
point
where
I
can
start
thinking
about
what
is
possible
and
I
really
do
appreciate
that,
because
it's
it's
given
me
a
lot
of
cause
to
think
and
I
know
that
displacement
affordability
is
all
going
to
be
part
of
this
conversation,
but
I
personally
completely
appreciate
the
the
big
vision
and
the
dream,
because
it
gives
me
a
good
place
to
start
from.
So
thank
you.
O
John,
petty,
go
father
jump
in
ago
from
packed,
I
really
appreciated
the
again
the
big
picture
of
it
and
everything
looks
really
good
far
away,
but
getting
up
close
as
a
bit
of
a
mess,
and
so
I'd
be
really
curious.
I
mean
I
like
I,
like
the
iterations
I,
like
the
image,
unlike
the
big
thinking,
but
I'm,
also
really
curious
about
on
the
specifics.
For
instance,
how
do
we,
you
know
how?
How
do
these
corridors,
and
how
does
you
know
that
the
idea
of
wherever
that,
wherever
Google,
is
going
to
be
placed?
O
How
is
that
going
to
drive
the
economic
well-being
and
give
up
economic
opportunity
to
the
residents
that
are
not
just
in
that
immediate
area,
but
also
throughout
the
city,
and
we've
heard
a
lot
of
that
concern,
so
I
think
that
whatever
we
present
or
how
we
move
forward,
we
need
to
kind
of
figure
out.
The
narration
needs
to
include
some
aspect
of
that,
because
I
was
left
hum
wanting
some
of
that
piece.
Also,
the
reality
is
that
a
lot
of
the
tech
companies
tend
to
be
closed,
campuses
and
I'm,
not
sure
what
your
thinking
is.
O
O
On
the
other
hand,
you
we
look
at
economic
opportunities
for
small
businesses
in
the
area
that
we're
talking
about
activating
this.
If
there's
a
number
of
people,
ten
thousand
to
fifteen
twenty
thousand
people
that
are
on
campus
I,
know
that
there's
a
real
incentive
to
keep
them,
you
know
close
to
campus
I
would
be
really
curious
to
see
if
we're.
O
If
we're
also
thinking
about
how
can
we
spread
that
economic
well-being
further
out
to
include
some
of
our
own
smaller
businesses
and
and
and
enterprising
people
that
are
in
San,
Jose
and
and
I
just
think,
there's
a
lot
of
opportunities
that
I
was
hearing
that
we're
coming
up,
but
it
would
be
really
important
to
have
a
true
dialogue
as
to
kind
of
know
a
little
bit
more
specifically
and
how
again
you're
that
the
picture
of
how
everything
looks
really
nice?
How
is
that
really
driving
the
well
economic
well-being
of
our
people?
O
E
H
I
am
very
worried
and
a
bit
disappointed
that,
given
the
public
conversation
and
the
conversations
that
this
committee
around
the
concerns
around
displacement
and
gentrification
that
that
hasn't
been
centered
already
I
saw
it
was
on
the
long
list,
but
that
your
visions
around
how
to
address
it
haven't
yet
been
centered.
And
so
as
we
move
forward
in
this
conversation,
my
hope
is
that
that
will
be
a
priority
in
your
sharing.
How
what
your
vision
is
to
address
that
issue
and
how
our
communities
can
can
see.
C
Know
I
think
with
any
of
these,
you
should
feel
free
to
respond.
It's
not
just
a
comment.
It
can
be
a
dialogue.
So
if
you,
if
you
feel
like
you,
some
can
be
in
somewhere
comments
and
and
but
if
you,
if
you
do
wanna
respond,
I
think
you
should
do
that
and
we
should
start
having
a
dialogue
about
this
I.
P
It's
something
that
you
know
for
debility,
displacement
and
gentrification
are
things
that
are
on
our
radar
in
our
mind
and
the
tonight
we
were
discussing
the
early
design
thinking
we've
been
attending
the
solution
group
meeting
to
be
able
to
learn
more
about
of
the
solutions.
So
we
look
forward
to
continuing
to
that
dialogue
and,
at
some
point,
have
a
discussion
with
this
group
of
how
we
addressed
those
issues.
Thank
you,
and
can
you
introduce
yourself.
J
Sama
chef,
the
head
chef,
Park,
Neighborhood
Association,
one
of
the
things
with
all
the
planning
and
land
use
activities
that
our
Neighborhood
Association
has
done.
One
of
the
things
that
I'm
hoping
I'm
hopeful
from
both
your
presentation
and
from
the
nature
of
the
SOG.
You
know
as
a
whole.
Too
often
we
see
developments
where
there's
token
amounts
of
public
space
or
token
amounts
of
green
space
or
token
amounts
of
in
lieu
fees,
and
we
don't
get
the
kind
of
comprehensive
amenities
that
we're
talking
about
here.
J
So
one
of
the
things
that
I'm
optimistic
about
that
I
hope
does
come
to
fruition
is
you're
not
just
talking
about
the
amenities
that
would
be
on
your
personally
owned
land
you're
talking
about
how
can
you
work
with
the
city
to
create
larger,
manned
these
larger
connections
above
and
beyond?
What
are
on
your
parcels
themselves
and
that's
the
kind
of
cohesiveness
that
far
too
often
has
been
lacking
is
how
we
end
up
with
all
the
neighborhood's
kind
of
so
piecemeal.
F
F
I
can't
speak
for
everyone,
I'm
interested
to
hear
others
thoughts,
but
I
have
really
high
hopes
for
what
we
were
gonna
hear
here,
and
you
know
I
subscribe
to
dwell
I
liked
good
design,
a
beautiful
downtown
would
be
fabulous,
but
given
the
tone
and
tenor
and
the
extent
of
the
concerns
that
have
been
addressed,
you
know
since
last
June
about
housing,
affordability,
about
displacement,
about
homelessness,
I'm,
a
little
disappointed
that
you
guys
kind
of
stepped
around
the
whole
issue.
I
didn't
even
hear
you
know
in
all
these.
You
know
beautiful
social
loops
and
other
things.
F
How
are
you
gonna
address
your
social
responsibility
for
the
folks
that
are
gonna
face
displacement?
I
was
just
a
little
surprised
and
tonight
in
it
I
take
the
point,
certainly
Xavier,
that
you
guys
have
been
a
part
of
the
solution
groups,
but
Google's
invested
tens
of
millions
of
dollars
in
buying
land.
At
this
point
you
guys
want
to
buy.
You
know
over
a
hundred
million
dollars
worth
of
public
land
from
the
city
of
San
Jose.
We
need
to
see
some
serious
solutions.
Let's
dream
big
about.
How
do
we
ensure
no
displacement?
F
That's
the
kind
of
big
dream.
I
think
we
want
to
hear,
and
frankly,
it's
a
little
disappointing
to
see
no
real
vision
there
in
a
kind
of
side,
snap
so
interesting
to
hear
how
and
when
we're
gonna
hear
some
real
solutions
and
some
real
thinking
from
your
team
on
this
issue.
Certainly
we're
willing
to
engage
and
we'll
be
forwarding
our
solutions.
We've
already
put
some
of
them
out
there,
but
when
are
we
gonna
hear
from
your
team
on
that
big
issue?.
P
Thank
you
Jeff
appreciate
the
the
comment.
I
think
that,
as
you
know,
we
know
that
this,
the
stationary
advisory
group
was
formed
to
be
able
to
collect.
You
know,
input
and
feedback
from
the
community,
and-
and
so
these
are
the
things
that
we're
hearing.
So
at
some
point
we
know
we'll
have
to
be
part
of
the
conversation
with
with
this
group
and
the
city
to
figure
out
what
are
the
solutions
to
address
the
issues
that
you
raised,
I.
E
Think
collectively
we
have
to
look
at
solutions,
so
this
is
a
complex
issue.
We
know
it
needs
to
be
addressed
and
we're
looking
for
feedback,
we're
looking
for
ideas,
and
we
collectively
got
to
think
through
this
together.
It's
not
something,
that's
easy,
easily
solvable.
It's
certainly
something
we're
up
for
the
challenge
for
and
just
this
one's
gonna
take
a
little
more
time
to
figure
out.
We
know
it's
got
to
be
addressed,
so
just
we
just
got
to
work
together
to
figure
it
out.
We
will
and.
F
K
Okay,
Kevin
Chrisman,
the
Gardner
neighborhood
and
I'd,
like
to
kind
of
echo
what
Kathy
Sutherland
was
saying
earlier.
It
seems,
like
the
city,
told
us
back
in
the
sni
days,
strong
neighborhood,
its
initiative
that
dream
big,
and
then
we
had
to
dial
back
a
lot
of
those
dreams
with
the
housing
crash
that
happened
around
2007,
you
know
and
they
demise
of
the
Redevelopment
Agency.
K
And
just
thank
you
not
only
for
encouraging
us,
like
Kathy,
said
to
dream
again
by
giving
us
some
hope.
We
know
it's
going
to
be
an
ongoing
dialogue,
but
you
know
maybe
some
of
the
people
didn't
hear.
I.
Think
Harvey
probably
picked
up
on
it
too,
but
thank
you
for
the
idea
of
elevating
the
station
like
in
Rotterdam,
so
that
we
can
get
the
train
tracks
up
high
enough
to
go
over
to
80
and
over
to
87
and
then
down
into
tame.
Ian
is
a
big
thing
for
our
neighborhood
that
yeah.
K
You
know
this
maybe
doesn't
make
a
big
difference
to
some
of
the
other
people
in
the
room.
But
for
you
know
like
about
35
houses
in
Gardner
and
11
houses
in
North,
Willow
Glen,
it
means
that
they
may
be
able
to
keep
their
houses
and
their
properties,
and
so
this
is
a
good
start
at
not
going
backwards.
K
As
far
as
the
big
thing
about
losing
houses
and
creating
more
of
a
a
homeless
situation
for
people
who
have
been
in
those
houses,
sometimes
for
three
and
four
generations,
so
I
applaud
you
on
your
early
efforts
and
I
think
with
what
I've
seen
from
you
as
a
group,
we
can
certainly
have
many
points
where
we
can
connect
in
the
future
and
make
this
dream
work
for
the
whole
city
of
San
Jose
in
a
positive
and
relative
way.
Thank
you.
D
Thank
you
very
much
Michael.
That
was
a
good
presentation.
My
name
is
Bill
Souders
and
I
represent
the
San
Jose
downtown
residents,
association
and
I
live
on
what
I
hope
does
become
the
Santa
Clara
social
street
I'll.
Let
my
colleagues
talk
about
the
social
challenges
or
affordable
housing
and
so
forth.
I'd
like
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
urban
design.
Coincidentally
I
just
did
my
first
full
walk
of
the
length
of
the
Highline.
It's
a
it's
a
great
achievement
in
New,
York,
City
and
I've
got
a
question
about
kind
of
the
chicken
and
the
egg.
D
Last
time,
I
talked
about
early
activation
as
part
of
this
overall
project.
The
things
you're
showing
here
can't
possibly
just
be
Google
so
based
on
your
experiences
elsewhere,
I
would
love
to
learn
more
about
what
other
sorts
of
partnerships
you
would
need
to
make
this
a
reality,
and
when
should
we
be
getting
started
with
that.
E
Yeah
there's
many
things,
I
mean
you
know,
for
instance,
what
I
really
liked
the
other
day
when
we
went
down
to
San
Pedro
market,
it's
the
fact
that
they
opened
up
that
parking
and
those
are
pop-up
sort
of
retail
three
women,
small
businesses,
I
think
they're.
In
there
for
a
period
of
three
to
four
months,
they
incubate
new
space
I
think
so
we
got
to
think
about
retailers,
encouraging
the
growth
of
small
businesses,
because
that
adds
Viper's
and
see
the
place.
E
To
give
you
an
example,
I
think
temporary
activation
is
very
important
and
and
and
that
could
again
be
supporting
the
smaller
businesses
that
eventually
could
incubate
and
move
into
more
permanent
places
on
site.
So
we
got
to
think
like
that,
because
places
about
vibrancy
I
mean
you
know
it's
clear
when
we
walked
around,
like
you
know,
having
green
leaf
ate
the
whole
loaf
on
my
way
home,
it
was
so
good.
You
know
clean
my
coffee
shop.
E
D
To
a
point
again,
the
vision
that
you
lay
out
is
going
to
be
multiple
years
and
the
chicken
and
egg
question
is:
do
we
wait
until
Google's
here
and
then
start
doing
the
rest?
Where
do
we
begin
begin
doing
the
rest?
Well
in
advance
of
Google
arriving,
and
maybe
it's
a
City
question.
You
reference
those
pop
ups
on
San
Pedro.
D
We
can't
even
close
that
block
for
some
reason
when
that
should
clearly
be
a
Paseo
and
should
have
been
for
years,
and
there
are
many
other
examples
like
that
when
you
talk
about
Santa
Clara
as
the
social
street.
At
what
point
do
we
decide
we're
not
going
to
have
cars
parked
on
Santa
Clara
anymore?
So
there
should
be
simple
things
that
we
could
do.
That
would
activate
what
is
not
activated
today.
Quite
frankly,.
Q
You
know
I
moved
into
I
bought
my
house
in
1983
in
North
Willow
Glen.
It
was
a
block
from
the
railroad
tracks.
It
was
under
the
flight
path
of
a
railroad
that
a
lot
of
negative
seed
was
painted,
orange
and
had
black
bars
on
the
outside
and
inside,
because
she
was
so
frightened.
The
bedroom
had
bars
double
sets
of
bars.
It
was
not
a.
G
Q
Neighborhood-
and
you
know,
I
saw
the
bones
of
a
renovation
project
of
a
restoration
project.
Fang
I
didn't
use
the
word
gentrification,
but
I
guess
it
would
be
called
gentrification
now,
but
I
saw
the
bones
of
a
an
area
that
could
become
something
wonderful
well,
Northland
has
become
north
wonderful
gardener
has
become
something
wonderful.
We
took
20
years
of
our
hard
work,
but
you
know
individually,
I
restored
my
house,
but
collectively
we
restored
the
neighborhood
and
made
it
actually
even
better
than
it
originally
was.
I
always
looked
towards
the
arena
which
I
you
know.
Q
Kevin
and
I
used
to
have
hold
tickets
to
the
Sharks
games
and
we
would
walk
to
the
arena
and
I
think
you
know
gee
I
wish
somebody
would
get
it
together
to
put
together
a
mega
project.
I
sat
on
the
Jordan
good
neighbor
committee,
I,
said
on
all
kinds
of
panels:
the
2040
panel,
the
revisions
of
the
2040,
and
then
you
know,
kept
coming
up
with
these
urban,
complete
neighborhoods,
mixing,
retail
and
and
and
and
walkable
bikable
connections
and
and
I'm.
Q
Q
The
reality
is,
we've
got
to
find
some
solutions
for
those
issues,
because
I
indeed,
one
to
make
sure
that
the
children
of
my
friends
are
able
to
buy
into
the
same
neighborhoods
and
that
we
continue
to
have
a
mix
of
people.
That's
what
drove
me
into
my
neighborhood?
It
was
a
lovely
neighborhood
in
terms
of
the
kinds
of
people
that
were
there
and
I,
see
that
you
as
Google,
have
vision
to
do
that.
Q
San
Jose
would
like
to
do
that,
but
there's
hamstrung
by
so
many
rules,
and
so
many
issues
and
lack
of
financing
and
and
what
have
you
that
I
am
looking
to
you
as
a
white
knight
to
help
us
with
yeah
jump-starts
these
issues
so
I.
Thank
you
for
looking
at
the
neighborhoods
I.
Thank
you
for
coming
up
with
a
solution
to
potentially
bypassed
the
neighborhood
with
the
high
speed
rail.
Q
R
Think
that
was
a
good
transition,
I'm
Steve
McMahon
Santas
Unified
School,
District
I'm,
the
epitome
of
all
the
rules
and
bureaucracy
and
in
the
over
150
years
of
the
school
district
existence.
We
regret
almost
all
of
our
sales
of
public
lands,
because
once
you
sell
them,
you
never
get
them
back.
There
is
a
fund
that
is
a
fundamental
difference
between
Stanford
and
the
University
of
California.
There's
a
fundamental
difference
between
the
sidewalk
and
the
private
property
I'm,
a
little
leery
I,
actually
totally
disagree.
I,
don't
believe
that
Google
should
build
public
spaces.
R
I
believe
you
should
build
fantastic
office
spaces
for
your
workers,
I
believe
the
city
should
build
fantastic
public
spaces
and
unless
the
sale
agreement
has
covenants
easements
rights-of-way,
that
guarantee
remains
public.
If
the
economy
changes
in
20
years,
why
would
you
pay
to
do
anything
with
the
railroad?
Why
would
you
pay
to
daylight?
Any
public
waterway
I
mean
that's
the
public's
works
and
responsibilities,
and
that
is
not
a
disrespectful
way
to
you
at
all.
You
are
a
business.
Make
money.
R
Do
your
thing:
the
public
needs
to
safeguard
the
taxpayers,
interests
and
make
sure
I
think
the
city
should
be
sharing
this
vision
for
public
walkways,
because
if
Google
has
jurisdiction
of
the
public
walkways,
it's
Stanford,
not
the
University
of
California,
it's
San,
Jose
Unified,
regretting
all
this
beautiful
building
and
land
we
sold
for
one
money
that
we
never
have
back
and
again
want
to
emphasize
I.
Think
what
you
do
as
a
company
is
your
jurisdiction,
but
if
the
sale
agreement
transfers
everything
to
Google,
why
would
you
build
any
of
this
as
a
private
business?
R
And
why
would
we
let
the
city
acquiesce
on
its
responsibility
to
provide
public
spaces?
So
that's
a
long
way
of
saying
I'm.
Now,
looking
at
all
of
these
expectations,
you've
said
I,
don't
think
we
should
expect
Google
to
daylight.
Anything
I
think
we
should
have
the
city
ensure
that
the
transfer
agreements
have
easements
rights-of-way.
Whatever
is
needed
to
ensure
that
if
you
intend
public
spaces
as
part
of
your
office
complex,
they
were
main
public
spaces,
and
that
is
a
going
to
be
a
challenge.
R
C
M
B
The
five
barge
properties
that
are
the
successor
agency
to
the
Redevelopment
Agency
properties
are
required
to
be
sold
by
the
long-range
property
management
plan
that
was
approved
by
the
State
Department
of
Finance,
and
the
reason
is
the
14
taxing
entities,
including
San
Jose
Unified,
including
the
city
including
the
county,
including
others,
want
the
proceeds
from
those
sales
to
to
go
flow
to
their
their
entities
right.
They
deserve
the
proceeds
from
those
property
sales.
So
for
the
the
other
city
properties,
it
was
envisioned
in
the
exclusive
negotiations
agreement
that
those
would
be
sold.
F
One
clarifying
question
on
that,
for
you,
Kim
I
mean
couldn't
the
city
of
San,
Jose
or
any
other
public
entity
choose
to
be
the
purchaser
and
then
consider
a
long-term
lease
or
I.
Think
this
question
of,
like
it
needs
to
be
sold,
is
not
a
definitive
thing.
You
know
the
city
could
bond
out
and
you
know
borrow
money
to
choose
to
buy
that
land
and
lease
it.
So
it's
not
a
it's
not
required
under
Sara
that
we
sell
it
per
se.
B
C
M
I
think
it's
really
critically
important
and
and
I
haven't
seen
any
city
in
California.
Do
it
well
is
to
recognize
our
Native
American
history
I'm
a
majority,
a
Native
American
and
you
know:
I,
go
to
the
northwest
and
I
go
to
Canada,
and
you
see
first
people
constantly
referenced
and
that
never
happens
here
and
I.
M
Think
it's
really
important
and
it's
a
real
tragedy
and
we
need
to
recognize
that
roots
third
Guadalupe,
River,
Park
I
think
it's
I
think
you
know
and
I'm
gonna
mention
it
in
my
four-minute
talk
that
we've
launched
an
initiative
to
really
look
at
making
that
a
great
central,
green
space
for
San,
Jose
and
and
all
the
connections
to
los
gatos
Creek,
as
well
as
other
neighborhoods.
East-West
north-south
are
really
critically
important,
but
really
elevating
and
and
realizing
a
grand
vision
for
that.
Park
is
I.
M
Think
a
really
important
part
of
this
whole
conversation
and
then,
finally,
to
father
pedigo,
point
really
making
sure
that
we
have
people
on
the
street
that
they
are
interacting
with
the
community
that
they
are
benefiting
from
all
these
investments
that
are
being
made
both
public
and
private
and
really
connecting
with
this
place
and
its
people.
So
I
think
that's
an
important
thing
for
Google
to
think
about
in
terms
of
your
development,
Thanks.
I
Hi
Sarah
McDermott,
South,
Bay,
Labor,
Council
I
have
a
comment
and
a
question.
First
of
all,
I
just
want
to
point
to
it.
I
think
there's
a
disconnect
when
it
comes
to
the
frustration
level,
you're
hearing
from
people
we
understand
where
you
are
in
the
sag
process.
The
problem
is,
we
feel,
like
you,
only
started
listening
when
the
ssag
process
started.
I
We've
been
talking
about
displacement
since
the
ena
popped
up
as
a
council
item,
we
had
town
halls
and
I
understand
if
you
guys
weren't
ready
to
discuss
with
the
community,
but
we
don't
understand
why
you
weren't,
ready
to
listen
and
so
I
think
that
is
the
frustration,
you're
hearing,
I'm
glad
you're
listening
now,
I'm
glad
you're
hearing
the
displacement
issue
but
you're
behind
where
we
want
to
be.
We
want
to
be
really
discussing
solutions
and
hearing
your
ideas,
the
question
I
had:
can
you
go
back
to
the
slide
with
the
four
corridors.
I
The
other
one
yeah
so
getting
at
the
public
land
question
I.
It
seems
like
all
of
these
are
public
access,
but
I'm
curious.
What
your
idea
is
on
the
ownership
of
these.
Are
they
going
like?
Are
these
gonna
be
public
access,
public
land,
or
are
they
just
gonna?
Be
public
assets
with
a
private
ownership.
E
I
E
J
Derrick
Seaver
with
the
San
Jose,
Downtown
Association,
also
a
quick
comment,
and
then
a
question
for
I
think
further
clarification.
My
comment
is
I
just
wanted
to
say
thank
you
on
behalf
of
the
Association
for
the
attention
that
you
all
clearly
paid
for
the
to
connectivity
between
the
west
side
of
downtown
and
the
downtown
core.
This
was
a
large
topic
last
evening
at
the
transportation
solutions
group.
It's
a
large
topic,
our
board
and
our
members
and
I
think
throughout
this
presentation.
J
It
showed
the
care
and
attention
that
you
all
pay
for
that
and
that's
exciting
for
us.
So
thank
you
for
that.
My
question,
though,
is,
is
just
a
little
bit
further
clarification
on
the
social
and
commercial
loop
component,
particularly
the
design
considerations
that
you
all
have
around
the
track:
elevation
and
the
connection
of
Santa
Clara
and
the
Alameda,
which
is
obviously
a
connection
that
already
exists.
J
E
Obviously
it's
not
our
station
design.
We
just
gave
some
thinking.
You
know
that
we've
shared
that
if
you
elevated
the
tracks
about
20
feet
and
obviously
you
can
get
a
connection
over
to
Cahill
Park,
you
got
enough
high
height
there
to
have
a
retail
component,
but
it's
not
our
station's
design.
We're
just
trying
to
share
some
some
ideas
with
the.
B
And
my
name
is
Norma
Camacho
Santa,
Clara,
Valley,
Water,
District
and
I
just
wanted
to
make
a
comment
on
the
approach
that
Google
is
taking.
I
know
that
we've
had
you
know,
basically
so
much
pressure
on
trying
to
develop,
affordable
housing
in
this
area.
Trying
to
house
the
homeless
I
know
that
at
the
Water
District
we
see
the
impacts
to
the
creeks
on
a
daily
basis,
whereas
encampments
start
to
build
and
and
start
to
rebuild
and
we're
constantly
going
out
there
dismantling
and
then
they
get
really
energized
in
other
areas.
B
That's
cohesive
and
that
is
really
lovable,
so
I
know
that
we
want
to
rush
and
find
what
the
solution
is,
and
we
want
to
react
to
the
solution,
but
I'm
glad
you're
taking
the
time
to
really
understand
the
community,
understand
the
circulation
and
the
potential
understand
what
how
the
existing
communities
really
interact
with
each
other
and
how
they
could
interact
better
before
you
come
out
with
the
silver
bullet
on
what
your
solution
to
this
is,
but
trying
to
take
the
time
to
really
understand
what
you're
dealing
with
here
in
this
area.
So
I.
B
I'm
I'm
very
impressed
by
your
guys's
work
and
I
guess
just
you
know,
take
note
to
take
that
same
care
and
and
know
that
your
your
building
in
an
area
that's
enduring
the
housing
crisis,
and
so
that
is
something
that
we
need
that
same
care
to
be
brought
into.
But
thank
you
guys.
You've
done
a
really
amazing
job.
J
J
There
are
many
other
topics
that
we
look
forward
to
getting
into
and
exploring
the
the
interconnections
between
them,
as
I,
think,
was
a
helpful
bite
for
us
to
start
chewing
on
I
particularly
appreciated
some
of
the
ideas
about
how
to
integrate
nature
into
into
the
site
and
into
some
of
the
adjacent
neighborhoods
and
communities
and
I.
Think
hearing
the
the
concepts
around
a
lighting,
the
creeks
and
creeks
interconnection
and
pathways
are
really
inspiring
and
I
think
reflect
things
that
that
San
Jose
and
the
broader
community
has
been
interested
in
for
quite
some
time.
J
Two
small
thoughts
on
this
issue:
most
of
these
concepts
are
seem
to
be
in
inspiring
ideas
about
the
site
and
some
of
the
connection
to
the
to
the
adjacent
neighborhoods.
You
would
also
mentioned
a
really
bold,
interesting
concept
about
connecting
from
the
bay
to
the
redwoods
and
I
think
with
with
a
regional
project,
a
project
of
such
regional
significance.
It
would
be
really
helpful
for
this
project
to
think
about
actions
of
regional
scale,
or
at
least
a
city
scale,
and
thinking
about
connections
between
some
of
our
most
important.
J
Large-Scale,
open
spaces
will
be
really
an
important
topic
to
think
about
through
this
process
and
I'd
I'd
love
to
hear
if
you've
got
any
any
thinking
on
that.
On
that
front,
the
the
second
question
was
around
essentially
the
question
of
Park
equity,
about
how
we,
how
we
integrate
issues
of
social
equity
with
the
integration
of
urban
greening
and
ensuring
that
that
open
spaces
as
a
public
amenity,
is
a
resource
that
serves
people
across
the
income
spectrum.
So
there's
those
two
initial
questions
for
you.
N
You
know
the
broader
connectivity
question,
it's
really
where
we
wanted
to
really
begin
this
discussion.
How
can
we
think
about
the
broader
connectivity
of
place
context,
seeing
the
context
of
being
the
region
tuna
form,
what
what
we
should
do
in
the
Deardon
stationery
itself?
We
felt
starting
at
the
station.
It
lost
sight
of
the
opportunity
that
surrounded
us
if
we
take
it
out
as
a
framework
and
then
use
it
a
catalyst
to
create
that
design.
N
N
J
E
E
E
J
That
concept,
so
one
of
them
is,
is
public
access.
Another
is
programming.
How
do
you
ensure
that
the
programming
you're
using
for
your
public
spaces
addresses,
is
culturally
competent
and
and
engages
people
across
the
income
spectrum
I
think
another
issue
we
heard
was
around
homelessness
and
how
you
address
homelessness,
as
you
are:
creating
and
managing
public
spaces
for
all
in
ways
that
address
folks
across
the
economic
spectrum.
Yeah
there's.
E
A
lot
in
obviously
but
I
mean
there.
There
was
a
giving
a
little
example.
One
of
the
images
in
there
was
a
park
in
Centennial
Park
in
Sydney
in
Australia,
which
I
just
loved
it's
a
kids
park
that
was
designed
in
a
natural
way
that
tied
to
the
story
of
this
eel
that
actually
migrates
up
into
the
park
to
breed
and
down,
and
they
use
the
park
as
an
educational
tool
to
the
kids.
E
The
kids
are
actually
very
much
all
the
school
kids
in
the
area
come
to
the
park
to
learn
about
nature,
this
history
of
this
deal
and
it's
also
a
playground
built
all
using
natural
materials.
So
it
serves
a
multiple
function.
It's
a
park,
I
love.
That
kind
of
concept
of
how
do
you
use
a
park
to
actually
serve
multiple
purposes?
You
know
on
a
broad
scale:
homelessness,
that's
a
I'm,
not
sure
I
have
an
answer
for
that
right
now.
We'd
have
to
think
through
that.
E
S
Nathan
hell
with
the
Silicon
Valley
leadership
group,
also
San
Jose
resident
just
want
to
thank
you
for
your
thoughtful
thinking
on
this.
It
showed,
especially
just
in
the
presentation,
I
think
you
could
have
started
here,
as
kind
of
like
you
called
the
heart,
or
the
gem
and
kind
of
showing
off
there,
but
I
really
appreciated
that
that
you
looked
at
the
greater
map.
S
So
I
really
well
it's
hard
to
see
here
and
hard
to
see
up
there
that
what
I
really
came
away
with
was
a
sense
of
connection
that
there
are
opportunities
for
innovative
and
exciting
circulation
through
this
area,
not
just
through
the
station
or
the
station
area,
but
but
really
through
the
downtown
and
a
great
part
of
San
Jose
there.
So
I
really
appreciate
that
and
very
excited
by
that
as
well.
S
I
took
my
family
to
Christmas
in
the
park
in
the
winter
and
park
by
deer
Don,
because
we
took
the
Christmas
light
rail
to
downtown
with
my
kids,
and
that
was
a
lot
of
fun,
but
we
walked
back.
We
walked
back
along
San,
Fernando
and
when
I,
but
what
I
think
of
when
I
see
something
like
this?
Is
it
wouldn't?
Would
it
be
great
for
my
family
to
walk
through
this?
You
know
to
come
back
and
to
stop
to
stop
and
stay
even
longer.
Even
though
I
was
past
it,
it
gets
bedtime.
S
So
it's
really
exciting
for
me
to
think
about
in
terms
of
the
loop.
It
made
me
think
about
my
time
on
the
East
Coast
in
Boston
around
the
freedom
trail
that,
wherever
you
are
in
Boston,
you
look
down,
and
you
see
this
brick
kind
of
trail
about
the
whole
thing,
not
saying
that
that's
what
this
has
to
be.
But
what
that
what
that
did
for
me
is
it
connects
the
city.
S
I
know
that's
coming
in
the
next
iteration
of,
what's
might
be
I
think
those
are
some
of
the
challenges
of
the
details
of
it
would
be
great
just
to
close
all
these
streets.
But
that
means
that
wherever
you
close
it
that
that's
where
the
cars
are
stopping
I
know
we're
trying
to
move
our
away
from
that
culture,
but
how
we
think
about
that
really
making
not
just
a
destination,
but
as
you
as
you
presented
a
whole
picture
of
circulation
and
not
just
some
place
that
people
go
in
and
leave
so
appreciate.
It
thanks.
C
Okay,
thank
you.
Oh
we
have
to
leave
one
more
did.
C
C
I
There's
been
a
lot
of
different
comments
around
housing
and
homelessness
and
displacement
and
as
I
remember
from
one
of
the
first
meetings,
that's
a
topic
we're
gonna
have.
But
it's
like
the
last
meeting.
Is
that
correct,
because
their
peers
to
be
a
lot
of
interest
in
it
and
I'm
just
wondering
when
we're
going
to
have
the
time
to
dig
into
that
topic.
So.
A
Based
off
of
actually
two
meetings
ago,
we
moved
that
so
I
was
going
to
announce
at
the
end
of
where
is
it
at
the
end
of
this
meeting?
So
we've
we
told
you,
we
were
gonna,
have
to
schedule
July
meeting
to
get
through
all
the
different
solution
groups,
so
the
housing
displacement
gentrification
group
would
be
coming
back
in
early
June,
July
July
night,
actually
to
this
group,
so
we'll
be
having
that
conversation
earlier
and
if
we
need
to
take
you
know
a
few
swipes
at
it.
We
will
given
the
stuff.
A
C
Okay,
actually
will
do
I'll.
Do
a
quick,
so
I
want
to
thank
the
Google
team
here
for
for
presenting
you
know,
as
we
heard
it
was
early
design,
thinking
and-
and
you
know,
obviously
lots
of
lots
of
compliments
on
some
of
the
design,
thinking
and
and
other
lots
of
other
things
to
think
about
in
terms
of
the
impact
in
the
relationship
between
the
physical
design
and
the
social
aspects
of
the
community,
so
so
more
to
come.
C
A
A
There's
there's
five
of
you
in
the
first
group
in
a
four
minutes:
that's
20
minutes
and
kind
of
the
the
best
part
of
the
TED
talks
for
me
last
time,
and
what
several
of
you
said
wasn't
the
actual
TED
talk.
It
was
the
dialogue
afterwards
and
I.
Don't
want
to
rush
that
for
any
of
the
panelists.
So
we
will
come
about
next
meeting
will
be
all
three
panels
of
Tech
Talks
exclusively,
so
we
can
kind
of
engage
in
this
dialogue.
A
I
really
feel
like
I'm,
the
teacher
that
said
study
there
should
be
a
pop
quiz
and
then
we
don't
do
it
so
I
know
Edwards
gonna
hit
me
over
the
head
on
the
way,
because
I
think
he
did
his
like
3:00
in
the
morning
on
the
way
back
from
Denver.
So
apologize
for
that,
so
we're
gonna
jump
into
public
comment.
A
I'll
round
us
out,
one
of
the
things
I
know
several
of
you,
because
it
felt
like
a
pop
quiz
rushed
to
get
us
to
your
power
points
for
the
TED
talk
so
now
you've
got
an
additional
three
weeks,
which
I
think
is
good.
Several
of
you
were,
you
know,
as
you
can
see,
Michael
kind
of
incorporated
a
lot
of
what
he
heard
at
the
TED
talks
last
week
in
his
presentation.
This
gives
you
guys
a
chance
that
are
presenting
in
three
weeks,
you've
heard
from
from
Michael
and
kind
of
that
design.
A
Several
of
you,
especially
some
of
the
neighborhood
leaders,
are
talking
about
kind
of
the
land
use
spaces
and
we
also
have
additional
solution
groups.
So
if
so
be
it,
you
want
to
change
your
presentation,
modify
it.
You
know,
give
additional
context.
Given
the
conversation
will
continue,
that's
totally
allowed,
so
we
will.
We
will
send
out
that
reminder
so
with
that
I'm
gonna,
give
it
to
Matt
will
do
public
comment.
We
do
have
a
few
different
folks
that
want
to
speak
and
then
I'll
come
back
and
close.
This
out.
H
Quick
question
yes,
Miranda
well,
Fran
is
with
Silicon
Valley,
rising
I
know.
We've
said
that
we
want
to
get
the
community
meetings
scheduled.
Can
you
just
say
like
how
quickly
we're
gonna
get
those
on
the
calendar?
What's
the
timeline
with
that
because
clearly
there's
a
lot
of
desire
for
voices
to
be
heard
and
so
I'm
feeling
urgency
and
concerned
that
those
aren't
moving
fast
enough
yeah.
A
A
We
are
gonna
target
that
last
the
last
two
weeks
in
June
to
begin
some
of
those
regional
forums,
then
I
think
based
off
of
the
conversation
you
know
with
father
John
and
several
others
from
some
of
the
solution
groups
and
then
the
conversation
we
had
tonight
I
do
think
we
want
to
start
kind
of
filtering
in
some
of
these
smaller
neighborhood
meetings
and
reaching
out
to
some
of
the
different
groups.
We
mentioned
how
they
come
into
this
process
and
maybe
present
some
of
their
ideas.
A
C
Okay,
thanks
lis,
so
we're
gonna
do
on
public
comments,
I,
just
a
little
warning.
We're
still
gonna
give
two
minutes
to
each
presenter.
We
have
each
public
commenter
I
think
we
have
six,
so
it
might
be
a
couple
minutes
over
past
nine.
First
public
comment
from
Matthew
Warren,
followed
by
Patricia
Palmeiras
Mason.
P
Good
evening
my
name
is
Matt
Warren
I'm,
with
the
Law
Foundation
of
Silicon,
Valley
and
I.
Just
have
some
really
brief
comments.
As
the
free
lawyers
in
this
advisory
group,
we've
had
a
few
questions
about
the
Brown
Act
and
how
it
applies
to
all
of
you
and
I.
Look
back
to
the
assistant
city
attorney
his
presentation,
and
he
didn't
make
it
very
clear,
but
you
are
all
allowed
to
talk
to
other
members
of
this
group
outside
of
the
meetings
you're
allowed
to
talk
to
other
individuals.
P
P
L
First
of
all,
I
like
to
recognize
first
is
the
lonely
nation
that
we're
in
I
was
taught
that
I
must
recognize
the
land
first.
I
am
part
of
the
bisetta
moment,
and
my
uncle
came
here
in
the
Gardner
area.
Is
the
fifth
generation
living
in
Gardner
for
my
family,
okay,
there's
made
many
changes
in
Gardner,
there's
a
lot
of
pain.
L
L
That
I
was
able
to
see
a
body
that
was
representing
Google
yet
with
that
we're
we're
in
a
time
of
hurt
in
pain
of
so
many
levels,
because
budget
cuts
when
people
were
losing
their
homes
when
people
are
getting
sick
at
one
time
my
neighborhood
was
a
the
cannery
place
where
everybody
walked
to
their
canneries.
There
were
about
five
tanneries
in
my
neighborhood.
L
We
grew
as
a
big
family
looking
out
for
each
other
and
still
we're
still
that
kind
of
community
we're
trying
to
look
for
each
other,
especially
our
seniors,
we're
forgetting
there's
a
lot
of
seniors,
we're
forgetting
there's
a
lot
of
youth
that
are
growing
up.
There's
a
lot
of
kids
that
are
in
the
foster
home
system.
They
need
a
place
where
to
learn
to
be
welcomed,
so
I
do
understand
the
paints
of
Mamie.
L
L
G
Hi
everyone-
this
is
Christian.
My
name
is
Christian
from
pax.
Just
to
echo
what
the
previous
speaker
said,
there
is
a
lot
of
pain
in
the
community.
I,
encourage
you
to
step
out
of
your
comfort
zones
and
see
what
it
is.
We
are
San
Jose,
that's
our
slogan
right,
but
there
are
so
many
people
who
say
that,
and
we
don't
all
look
alike,
I'm
saddened
that
we
don't
get
to
do
a
TED,
Talks,
cuz,
I,
think
others
don't
read
ago.
G
I
had
a
really
good
one
to
express
some
of
the
stories
I'm
better
everyone
did,
but
but
to
express
some
of
the
stories
of
voices,
often
not
represented
so
a
little
teaser
for
next
time,
but
just
to
re-emphasize
that
the
effect
here
is
not
is
the
there's
a
Google
effect?
It's
not
just
Google
coming
in
its
what
does
Google
coming
in?
What
will
that
do?
G
There
will
be
more
I,
don't
know
if
Adobe's
here
on
the
table,
but
Adobe's
like
doubling
their
size,
I
think
having
having
that
like
incorporate
into
this
dialogue,
this
narrative
and
seeing
what
other
companies
are
coming
in
that
there's
an
effect.
That's
gonna
have
that's
gonna,
be
magnified
not
just
with
Google's
scope,
but
with
what
development
that's
gonna
attract
and
what
that's
gonna
do
to
exponentially.
G
Expand
this
this
this
impact,
so
not
to
discount
that
really
be
intentional
around
20
years
or
2025
is
one
this
project
expect
to
be
done,
I
suppose
what
does
that
impact?
Gonna
look
like
and
to
see
the
I
always
emphasize
this.
The
broader
reaches
of
that
impact
into
East,
San
Jose
to
think
regional
about
this.
What
is
that
going
to
do
and
to
think
about
the
people
of
color?
The
lower-income
communities
are
going
to
be
affected
by
this
and
to
react.
G
Oh,
what
someone
stated
about
the
public
land
I,
think
that
has
to
be
really
looked
into.
What
imagine
what
the
public
land
could
be?
You
for
I
think
there's
legislation
that
people
should
look
out
for
that
could
affect
public
land
sales
and
also
to
also
look
at
different
uses
and
really
be
innovative
and
really
intentional
around
other
uses,
including
affordable
housing,
public
land,
Trust's
different
things
like
that.
Thank
you,
Thank.
T
T
They
started
talking
about
their
their
actual
campus
structure
a
bit
more
today
and
I
hope
we
learn
to
focus
on
those
terms.
I
was
really
impressed
by
the
ideas
of
public
use
and
public
public
land
public
use
for
public
land,
something
like
that.
I
was
really
impressed
by
that
idea
and
I
the
the
school
superintendent.
T
T
K
I
wanted
to
echo
Harvey
and
just
say:
wow
I
think
you've
heard
us
you're
hearing
us
and
we're
glad
that
you
are
dreaming
big
regarding
housing.
You're
gonna
be
building
a
lot
of
stuff
there
by
the
google
there
by
the
deer
Don.
That's
not
all
Google
offices,
there'll
be
a
lot
of
housing
that
will
be
built.
Who's
gonna
be
building
that
I'm,
not
quite
sure.
Anyhow.
The
area
now
is
a
mostly
warehouses
and
vacant.
Lots
they're,
not
that
many
residents
there
you'll
be
building
a
lot
more
houses
than
are
being
displaced.
K
It
needs
to
be
a
mix,
though,
from
studio
from
very
affordable
student
studio
apartments
up
to
luxury
penthouses
and
you
need
to
have
you'll,
be
building
more
affordable
housing
now
than
they
are
being
displaced.
So
you
need
to
do
that.
You
do
need
to
work
on
the
phasing
so
that
the
new,
affordable
housing
is
built
is
available
before
the
residents
are
displaced.
You
want
to
have
a
mix
of
community.
You
want
to
have
rich
and
poor
young
and
old.
K
M
This
is
a
very
wise
thing
to
do,
because
I
don't
think
we
should
ever
lose
control
of
public
property.
Maybe
we
can
figure
some
legal
things
out,
Land
Trust
whatever,
but
I
think
we
need
to
be
thinking
beyond
what
we've
done
before
and
I.
Also,
the
also
the
impacts
of
what
of
Google
coming
here
will
not
just
be
that
little
the
downtown
area,
it's
gonna,
affect
Stockton
Modesto,
Sacramento
people
in
the
valley,
they're
already
being
displaced,
because
people
from
the
Bay
Area
who
can't
afford
to
live
here
are
now
moving
out.
M
M
So
I
am
personally
being
impacted
because
my
neighbors
a
lot
of
them
who
rent
and
maybe
they
don't
make
big
incomes,
a
lot
of
them
speak
Spanish
are
going
to
be
affected
and
I'm
worried
about.
What's
gonna
happen
to
them,
I'm
worried.
What's
gonna
happen
to
my
son?
Where
is
he
gonna
live?
Where
are
the
kids?
Where
are
our
kids
gonna
live?
M
We
did
do
something
to
control
costs
of
housing
and
it's
gonna
have
to
be
a
whole
new
way
of
thinking,
because
up
to
now
what
we
done
hasn't
worked
and
lastly,
I
want
to
say,
I
think
when
you're
talking
about
parks,
it's
not
a
real,
so
mean
parks
in
areas
which
are
lower
income,
not
just
making
parts
more
accessible
to
people
in
downtown.
Thank
you.
T
Not
as
tall
she
was,
there
is
anyway
okay,
so
my
name
is
Robert
Aguirre
and
those
that
know
me
I
represent
the
houseless
community.
There
are
4300
houseless
people
living
outdoors
on
any
given
night
and
a
lot
of
these
people
are
living
in
the
downtown
area
and
particularly
in
this
particular
area
that
that
Google
is
putting
in
there
and
I
understand.
T
There's
an
assembly
bill
2065,
it's
in
committee
right
now
on
local
government
and
it's
talking
about
revising
expanding
provisions
in
the
surplus
land,
specifically
surplus
lands
that
are
owned
by
local
agencies
to
include
sewer
water,
utility,
local
government,
regional
park,
district
joint
powers,
authorities,
successor
agency
to
a
former
Redevelopment
Agency,
Housing,
Authority
and
other
political
submissions
of
the
state
and
instrumentally
thereof,
empower
to
acquire
and
hold
real
property
there
for
expanding
the
entities
required
to
comply
with
state
surplus,
Land
Act.
So
what
this
act
is
anybody
can
look
it
up.
T
It's
on
the
internet
is
saying
that,
basically,
the
properties
do
not
have
to
be
sold
to
a
private
individual,
but
they
should
be
offered
first
to
anybody
that
wants
to
build
affordable
housing.
My
question
is
what
is
affordable
because
everybody
can
afford
something
if
you
can
afford
it,
but
what
I'm
talking
about
are
the
people
that
cannot
afford
and
those
are
the
people
that
are
an
extremely
low
income
in
the
clusion
Airy
closet.
The
city
of
San
Jose,
has
does
not
include
very
low
and
extremely
low
income.
T
A
All
right,
thank
you,
Robert.
That
concludes
the
public
comment.
So
I
have
some
housekeeping
slides,
but
because
the
TED
talks
are
next,
there's
like
200,
slides,
I
have
to
sort
through
to
get
through
that
and
and
quite
honestly
I
just
given
the
tenure
of
the
conversation,
I
think
we
will
follow
up
with
an
email
on
that
during
public
comment.
I
was
for
anything
how
to
close
this
out.
A
So
a
lot
happened
tonight,
quite
frankly,
and
I
facilitate
a
lot
of
community
meetings
and
haven't
dealt
with
that
before
and
you
know,
I
was
trying
to
you
know
say:
do
I
come
back
and
thank
you
guys
for
coming
back
and
thank
the
public,
but
really
I
was
proud
of
the
way
you
guys
dealt
with
that
and
how
we
came
back.
We
talked
a
lot
in
the
first
meeting,
our
orientation
kind
of
possibly
assuming
that
that
may
happen
about
how
we
were
gonna,
come
back
as
a
group
and
work
together
and
that's
really
important.
A
We
all
deal
with
you
know,
fears,
anxiety,
and
you
know,
there's
a
lot
of
emotion
around
this,
because
it's
change
and
fear-
and
we
all
deal
with
that
differently,
but
I
liked
how
you
guys
came
back
into
the
room
challenged
Google
on
several
fronts,
gave
them
compliments
on
several
several
fronts:
the
stuff
that
you
guys
wanted
address.
You
know
the
presentations
are
work
in
progress.
Some
of
your
TED
Talks
next
week
are
gonna,
be
a
work
in
progress.
Nothing
is
perfect.
A
A
Things
change
as
a
group.
We're
probably
not
gonna,
be
perfect,
but
if
we
can
come
back
like
we
did
tonight,
have
conversation
still
push
one
another
to
think
differently
and
really
rely
on
ourselves
to
seek
to
understand
and
listen.
We
may
not
be
perfect,
but
we
will
get
somewhere
so
I'm
gonna
leave
us
on
that
tonight.
We
will
follow
up
with
all
the
different
housekeeping
and
details,
but
thank
you
for
coming
back
in
the
room
and
challenging
one
another
and
listening
to
one
another.
