Before
we
begin,
I
want
to
remind
the
committee
members
and
members
of
the
public
to
follow
our
code
of
conduct
for
meetings.
This
includes
commenting
on
the
specific
agenda
item
only
and
addressing
the
full
body.
Public
speakers
will
not
engage
with
co
in
conversation
with
the
chair
council
members
board
members
or
staff.
C
E
C
Yeah
davis
here,
thank
you.
Thank
you
all
right.
There
are
no
items
recommended
to
be
added,
dropped
or
deferred
in
the
review
of
the
work
plan.
There
are
also
no
items
on
the
consent
calendar.
So
unless
my
members
have
any
comments,
we
will
move
directly
to
reports
to
the
committee.
The
first
report
is
item
d1
status
report
on
deferred
maintenance
and
infrastructure
backlog
matthew.
Are
you
kicking
it
off
for
us.
F
Yes,
j
davis,
hi,
my
name
is
matthew
nguyen.
Thank
thank
you,
jay
davis
and
good
afternoon
committee
members.
My
name
is
matthew
nguyen
I'm
a
deputy
director
for
public
works
and
today,
co-presenting
with
me,
will
be
walter.
Lin
deputy
director
for
public
works.
Sarah
sellers
division
manager
for
prns
and
rick
scott
deputy
director
for
dlt.
F
F
This
is
a
living
document
and
it
captured
all
of
the
needs
that
we
identify
in
our
system
and
it
will
be
continued
to
be
updated
and
evaluated
by
staff
annually
and
staff
continue
to
try
to
come
up
with.
You
know
more
accurate
information
so
that
we
can
have
a
better
understanding
of
our
system
and
our
needs.
F
This
is
a
slight
reduction
from
last
year.
It's
reduced
by
about
four
percent
from
last
year,
and
this
is
lastly
based
on
the
reduction
in
transportation.
Infrastructure
needs
that
will
be
discussed
by
the
ot
later
on
on
the
ongoing
annual
unfunded
need
it's
a
reduction
of
about
1.4
percent
from
last
year.
F
Here's
another
way
to
look
at
our
infrastructure
backlog.
Just
a
quick
disclaimer
here
is
you
there's
an
error
on
the
chart.
You
can
see
that
there's
a
big
deficit
in
flit,
actually
that
high
column
of
in
in
orange
color.
It
should
belong
to
the
park,
pool
and
open
space
adjacent
to
it.
So
sorry
about
that,
so
you
can
see
that
there
are
four
areas
that
have
a
large
deficit
in
this
in
the
city.
Going
from
left
to
right
is
building
facilities,
park,
pool
open
space,
storm
sewer
system
and
transportation
infrastructure.
F
G
G
This
is
exclusive
of
the
airport
and
the
regional
wastewater
facility,
but
includes
the
categories
of
facilities
that
you
see
here,
including
the
public
safety
facilities,
police
and
fire
city
hall,
the
cultural
facilities,
prns
and
library
sites
the
animal
care
services
facility,
as
well
with
these
sites.
As
you
know,
they
are
quite
antiquated
for
the
majority
of
our
building
inventory
and,
unfortunately,
with
older
buildings.
G
We
just
want
to
make
sure
that
they
are
functioning
as
they
should
and
they
provide
that
level
of
safety
as
well
for
each
facility
any
type
of
life
safety
issues
that
occur.
We
do
treat
that
as
our
highest
priority
our
priority.
One
work
orders
that
we
would
address
and
at
least
safe
off
to
the
point,
where
there's
no
longer
the
danger,
the
staff
or
the
public
or
to
the
equipment
itself
preventing
further
damage
and
then
going
back
and
making
the
proper
repair
when
possible
and
as
the
budgets
provide
us
to
do
so.
G
You
can
see
here
with
the
pr
s
facilities
almost
at
180
million
dollars
and
I'm
sorry.
We
do
manage
400
buildings
and,
as
shown,
there
are
5
million
square
feet
of
space
for
the
prns
sites.
We're
at
almost
180
million
dollars
in
building
needs
team,
san
jose
that
is
73
and
a
half
million
police
facilities
at
almost
9
million
city
hall,
at
over
8
million
fire
departments,
9
million
cultural
facilities
at
13.8
million,
the
library
branches
at
33
million,
and
then
the
animal
care
services,
that's
just
under
30
million.
G
Now,
if
we
can
advance
to
the
next
slide,
this
slide
just
shows
a
few
examples
of
what
we
do
maintain
on
the
building
exterior
and
interior.
This
is
just
a
photo
of
the
police
administration
building
with
the
communications
building.
In
the
background,
we
cover
it
all
in
terms
of
exterior
and
interior
of
the
building
of
the
building
site
from
roofing
outdoor
lighting.
G
With
many
of
the
facilities
we
are,
we
do
have
the
allocation
from
measure
t
to
upgrade
the
exterior
lighting
of
building
buildings,
parts
and
trails
to
new
leds
and
automated
controls
elevator
systems.
Unfortunately,
they
are
aged.
We
are
having
more
problems
with
those
types
of
equipments
and
systems,
plumbing
systems
and
electrical
emergency
generators
as
well
as
we
start
moving
towards
more
of
that
look
for
resiliency
and
building
sustainability.
G
At
the
same
time,
we're
looking
at
what
facilities
we
do
have
to
maintain
with
existing
diesel
generators,
but
also
looking
forward
in
terms
of
what
we're
doing
for
the
more
sustainable
side
and
the
micro
grid
program
is
still
evolving
for
those
facilities
that
don't
quite
have
backup
generation.
At
this
point,
dexter,
shell
and
hjc
air
conditioning
systems,
fire
alarm
systems
as
well
for
solar
systems.
We
do
have
those
on
several
facilities
to
help
offset
some
of
the
pg
e
needs.
G
G
H
Thank
you,
walter.
My
name
is
sarah
sellers,
I'm
the
division
manager
for
the
capital,
team
and
parks,
recreation
and
neighborhood
services.
Many
of
you
are
familiar
with
san
jose's
extensive
park
system,
but
as
a
reminder,
we
have
209
parks
that
includes
neighborhood
and
regional
parks,
as
well
as
golf
courses
and
open
space.
H
H
The
city
is
also
home
to
six
aquatic
facilities,
so
those
are
pools
and
the
related
infrastructure
and
of
course,
we
have
community
gardens
and
skate
parks
and
assortment
of
other
goodies.
Two
attractions
stand
out
that
are
in
our
inventory.
We
have
san
jose
family
camp,
which
is
located
in
the
sierra
nevada
mountains,
a
few
hours
outside
of
the
city
and
happy
hollow
park
and
zoo,
which
is
home
to
a
handful
of
really
cute
critters,
including
a
jaguar
and
an
alligator
next
slide.
Please,
and
of
course,
all
of
that
to
say
we
have
many
many
needs.
H
We
have
a
very
large
inventory
and
our
infrastructure
backlog
number
continues
to
grow,
we're
working
from
a
2013
report
to
update
those
numbers.
We
are
prioritizing
a
lot
of
renovation
projects
to
try
and
get
ahead
of
this,
but
behind
the
scenes,
we're
really
looking
at
cleaning
up
our
data
and
assessing
things
on
an
individual
basis.
H
So
last
year
we're
able
to
pilot
a
part
condition
assessment
process
which
broke
out
capital
infrastructure
from
maintenance
items
and
took
a
deeper
dive
into
assessing
items
like
playgrounds,
sports
courts
and
exercise
equipment.
We
also
piloted
a
trail
assessment
project,
so
we're
hoping
that
having
cleaner
data
will
help
us
have
a
cleaner
inventory
and
will
lead
to
refining
these
numbers
in
the
future.
H
As
of
this
year,
the
subtotal
for
parks
is
roughly
260
million,
adding
that
with
our
community
centers,
restrooms
and
other
minor
park
buildings
we're
adding
another,
roughly
163
million
for
a
grand
total
of
424
million
for
the
prns
backlog
and
with
that
I'll
pass
it
along
to
matthew
for
the
storm
sewer
infrastructure.
Thank
you.
F
E
E
If
you
were
to
look
at
the
numbers
on
the
next
slide,
which
is
our
pavement
maintenance
miles
that
has
not
changed
unlike
last
year,
where
we
did
have
an
increase
next
slide,
please
so
the
dot
maintenance
backlog
actually
decreased
pretty
substantially.
This
past
year,
35
31.5
million
of
that
is
attributable
to
the
work
that
our
teams
have
accomplished
on
paving
ada,
rap
updates
and
bridge
maintenance,
but
the
bridge
maintenance
rehabilitation
asset
class
in
particular,
fell
by
75
million
alone,
primarily
due
to
a
new
way
that
caltrans
calculates
maintenance
needs.
E
They
perform
all
of
our
inspections
every
two
years.
So,
according
to
the
most
recent
inspection
san
jose,
now
only
has
two
bridges
which
would
be
in
poor
condition,
neither
of
which
present
safety
concerns
to
our
residents.
So
our
maintenance
backlog
has
fallen
by
over
100
million
dollars
this
past
year
to
736.9
million
dollars
in
d.o.t.
E
We
anticipate
the
maintenance
backlog
to
continue
decreasing
year
over
year,
while
measured
t
funds
remain
in
place
and
actually
in
march,
our
team
did
provide
an
updated
pavement
maintenance
report
with
in-depth
analysis,
including
a
10-year
projection,
this
past
tn
meeting
in
march.
So
we
won't
be
going
into
more
detail
on
that
today.
So
with
that,
I
believe
that
covers
it
matthew
unless
there's
anything
else,
we're
ready
for
questions.
B
B
B
C
I
Thank
you
and
thank
you
for
the
backlock
report,
which
it's
a
little
disappointing,
but
I
understand
we
never
have
enough
money
to
do
all
of
these
capital
improvement
projects
that
we
need
to
do.
But
I
do
have
some
questions
about
specific
numbers.
Can
you
pull
up
the
slide
that
shows
the
list
of
different
categories
and
then
the
dollar
amounts
attached
to
them.
I
G
Yes,
council,
member
foley:
this
is
walter
lynn
with
public
works.
I
can
help
answer
that
question.
Thank
you
absolutely
councilmember
foley.
So
on
the
top
of
page
nine
within
the
report,
it
goes
through
the
details
of
the
various
facilities
and
the
dollar
amounts.
They
are
big
ticket
amounts
with
the
largest
coming
from
the
center
for
performing
arts
that
particular
facility.
Unfortunately,
it
is
old.
The
building
systems
are
quite
aged.
The
facility
can
use
quite
a
bit
of
improvements
of
that
73.5
million
42
and
a
half
comes
from
the
center
for
performing
arts.
G
I
know
in
past
dmib
meetings,
there's
an
inquiry
on
what
it
might
cost
to
just
start
over
demo
that
facility,
if
the
cost
is
so
so
large,
our
architectural
team,
our
occupational
engineering
team
did
do
that
analysis
and
it
would
be
over
a
hundred
million
dollars.
I
believe,
if
I
called
correctly
to
start
over,
so
there
is
still
value
in
reusing
the
existing
sites,
although
this
dollar
amount
is
quite
huge.
G
One
project,
in
particular
for
team
san
jose
and
the
center
for
performing
arts
that
we
are
focusing
on
more
immediately
is
the
chiller
system
at
the
center.
At
the
cpa
that
one
unfortunately
has
really
gone
beyond
the
end
of
life
to
put
in
perspective,
our
team
is
estimating
construction
costs,
as
well
as
design
and
engineering
to
be
over
seven
million
dollars
just
for
that
one
project.
I
Walter
thank
you
for
that
information
and
with
regards
to
the
center
of
performing
arts
when
you
it,
it's
sounds
like
it's
functionally
obsolescent
as
currently
designed,
but
there's
some
historical
construction
in
that
building
too.
So
I'm
sure
the
preservationist
would
not
want
it
to
be
destroyed,
but
I
do
appreciate,
and
nor
nor
would
I
it's
kind
of
a
kind
of
a
fun
building,
but
I'm
I
do
appreciate
that
you
did
the
analysis
to
determine
well.
I
If
we
tore
it
down
and
rebuild,
could
we
we
could
build
it
better
in
that
we
can
use
new
technology
and
maybe
make
it
a
leed
certified
building,
but
but
in
given
that
the
cost
is
so
high,
it
doesn't
make
sense.
So
I
appreciate
that
I
I
appreciate
that
you're
doing
the
analysis
on
that
with
regards
to
city
hall
and
I'm
sorry
if
this
is
in
the
report-
and
I
didn't
catch
it,
it's
the
the
dollar
is
8.1
million
for
city
hall.
What
does
that?
G
Yes,
customer
foley,
so
there
are
quite
a
few
projects,
even
though
city
hall
is
not
quite
20
years
old.
We
are
approaching
17
years
at
this
point
this
coming
summer,
so
not
very
old,
but
not
very
young.
Unfortunately,
and
with
the
with
the
run
times
on
the
building
systems,
they
are
getting
deteriorated.
They
are
getting
antiquated.
There
are
upgrades
as
well
too,
even
though
the
systems
were
built
with
state-of-the-art
in
mind
back
in
the
early
2000s.
Those
have
also
become
antiquated,
unfortunately,
with
any
type
of
technology.
G
There
are
mechanical
system
upgrades
in
particular
air
conditioning
system,
upgrades
that
we
consider
the
fort
street
garage
and
the
employee
garage
as
part
of
the
city
hall
campus
because
of
the
proximity
and
how
we
use
those
facilities.
There
are
some
mechanical
system
upgrades
are
needed
at
the
fourth
street
garage,
in
particular
as
it
services
the
summit
center
and
that's
a
larger
ticket
amount
as
well
to
in
the
neighborhood
of
one
and
a
half
million
dollars.
G
If
not
more,
we
are
still
looking
at
some
furniture
replacement
where
needed
and
then
exterior
restoration.
That
is
something
to
to
the
best
of
our
abilities.
When
we
have
negative
activities
on
the
campus,
our
facilities
team,
we
do
our
very
best
job,
as
well
as
with
beautify
sj,
to
assist
in
cleaning
up
and
restoring
as
much
as
we
can
on
the
building
exterior.
G
However,
there's
some
damage
and
some
graffiti
that
just
won't
come
off
as
cleanly
as
we'd
like
and
as
such,
we're
thinking
of
exterior
makeover.
If
you
will,
where
we
can
enhance
the
look
aesthetically
and
get
it
to
a
place
where
some
of
the
past
negative
activities
and
the
residuals
can
be
lifted
off
of
the
surface
of
the
buildings.
I
Okay,
so
it
it
sounds
like
you're
prioritizing
health
and
safety
issues,
as
it
relates
to
city
hall,
which
I
think
is
is
important.
The
the
plumbing
the
carpet
security
cameras,
things
like
that
removing
the
graffiti
those
are
all
really
important
things.
So
I
I
appreciate
that,
thank
you,
walter
and
then
I
have
one
final
question
for
rick
and
rick.
You
mentioned
two
bridges,
which
are
the
two
bridges
that
we
have.
It
is
so
so
there
are
we
all.
E
D
J
E
Kind
of
to
the
southeast
we've
got
ritter
street
at
coyote.
Creek.
Sorry,
ritter
park
drive
at
coyote
creek,
that's
another
one,
that's
considered
to
be
in
poor
condition.
Again:
caltrans
inspects
every
two
years:
they've
changed
their
recently
changed
their
inspection
criteria
and
the
categories,
and
so
the
our
our
bridges
are
in
a
lot
better
shape
than
we
thought
they
were
so
good.
That's
good
news.
I
That
that
is
good
news.
I
won't
get
nervous
then,
when
I
cross
over
any
of
those
bridges.
So
thank
thank
you
for
the
that
news
and
and
council
member
cohn
probably
goes
over
the
gold
bridge
more
than
than
I
probably
would
that's
kind
of
in
his
general
area.
Well,
I
I
want
to
thank
you
all
for
your
presentation
and
answers
to
my
questions
very
helpful.
K
Councilmember
foley
thanks.
I
wish
you
hadn't
asked
that
question
now.
I
know
that
the
two
bridges
that
are
on
this
list
are
in
district
four,
I
actually
very
few
people
at
least
well,
I
shouldn't
say
this
they're
people
who
commute
into
san
jose
on
the
gold
bridge
old
street
bridge,
but
it's
pretty
far
removed
from
the
rest
of
us
ritter
park,
though,
is
pretty
fairly
heavily
used,
but
anyway,
I'd
be
I'll,
be
interested
to
now.
K
K
D
K
K
All
right
thanks!
So
every
year
we
get
this
report
with
this
large
backlog
and
big
scary
numbers,
and
I
know
we're
allocating
measure,
t
and
measure
b
as
appropriate
to
address
some
of
the
things
in
this
backlog,
and
I
know
that
that's
helping
us
with
our
with
our
roads
are
there
some
recommendations
that
come
out
of
the
study
every
year
about
what
we
might
need
to
do
as
a
city
to
begin
to
chip
away
at
the
most
important
issues.
G
That
is
where
the
continued
condition
assessment
work,
I
think,
comes
into
play,
which,
unfortunately,
we
haven't
had
as
much
resources
to
do
so
as
or
more
in
the
reactive
mode
than
correct
mode.
But
that's.
The
idea
is
to
proactively
look
at
the
facilities
understand
where
they're
at
in
their
current
life
cycle,
and
that
might
not
mean
what
the
manufacturer
indicates.
G
That
is
where
we
would
like
the
city
to
be
at,
but
right
now
we're
in
that
fine
balance
where,
as
things
break,
most
of
our
resources
are
going
towards
the
reactive
fix
the
problem,
save
it
get
it
to
a
usable
opera
condition
and,
at
the
same
time,
in
parallel
start
looking
at.
Maybe
the
budget
requests
to
start
looking
at
things
a
little
bit
more
proactively
and
dedicating
some
resources
to
that
degree,
as
you
mentioned,
with
specifically
with
the
community
facing
sites,
community,
centers
libraries
and
definitely
our
public
safety
facilities
as
well.
K
I
know
that
as
we
go
through
the
budget
process
each
year,
many
of
us
know
of
things
and
we
try
to
request
some
money
for
them.
But
maybe
there
should
be
some
more
direct
line
of
communication
between
the
work
that
you're
doing
in
the
council
offices.
To
make
sure
that
we
know
here
are
some
high
things
that
we
think
are
high
priority
that
you
might
not
be
aware
of.
G
Absolutely
councilmember
cohen.
I
I
welcome
that
partnership,
any
additional
information
eyes
in
the
field.
You
know
eyes
on
the
site
that
we
might
not
be
aware
of.
We
would
love
to
have
that
information.
We
can
work
and
keep
our
list.
You
know
growing
and
unfortunately,
it's
a
very
long
list
at
this
point,
but
we
can
continue
adding
and
then
prioritizing
where
it
fits.
If
there's
something
that
is
on
the
more
immediate
schedule
that
needs
replacement
or
major
repair,
we
can
consider
moving
those
through
the
priority
rankings.
G
C
To
that
point,
council,
member
cohen,
the
parks
department's
really
good
about
doing
that
months
before
we
start
the
budget
process,
so
you
can
start
thinking
about
it.
So
I
think
that's
a
good
suggestion
for
for
other
departments
if
they've
got
their
lists
and
can
sort
of
portion
them
out
for
us
by
council
district.
That
would
be
really
helpful.
I
know
parks
already
does
that.
I
have
a
few
just
kind
of
bigger
30.
000
foot
view
questions
there.
There
was
some
talk
in
the
in
the
parks.
C
I
think
sarah,
you
were
talking
about
the
parks
being
based
on
a
2013
report
and
being
updated,
but
that
more
detailed
information
is
still
being
developed.
We've
heard
that
now
for
a
few
years-
and
I
know
when
I
say
a
few
years
that
includes
the
years
of
the
pandemic,
so
I'm
just
wondering
what
the
timeline
is
for
those
those
updated
details.
C
H
Thank
you
for
your
question,
so
I
think
you
know
part
of
the
challenge
is
we're
piloting
processes
and
then
we
get
data.
We
review
it.
We
refine
it.
We,
you
know
kind
of
play
with
it
to
make
sure
it's
it's
truthful
data
that
we
can
actually
rely
on.
So
I
think
now
we're
at
the
point
where
we
have
good
data.
H
The
challenge
is
really:
how
do
we
update
our
numbers
if
we've
been
calculating
our
current
numbers
based
off
of
a
2013
report,
I
think
that's
kind
of
where
we're
at
is
we're
ready
to
break
away
from
the
old
report,
but
we
haven't
quite
figured
out
the
mechanism
for
how
to
clear
everything
up
to
say
this
was
the
old
report,
and
this
is
our
new
report.
Here's
our
numbers
for
something,
for
example,
for
sports
courts
versus
trails
versus
exercise
equipment
and
now
how
does
that
compare
with
the
old
report?
That's
where
we're
at
right.
C
I
would,
I
would
just
suggest-
and
I'd
love,
to
hear
what
my
colleagues
think
about
this,
but
I
would
just
suggest
starting
fresh.
I
mean
we're
talking
about
nine
years
and
nine
years
in
which
multiple
things
have
happened,
that
that
are
pretty
disruptive.
So
I
wouldn't
even
I
don't
think
it's
worth
the
time
to
do
a
reconciliation
unless
you
think
that
there
is
going
to
be
better
information
coming
from
a
reconciliation,
but
just
to
reconcile
so
that
we
can
compare
the
2013
report
with
the
2022
or
2023
report.
C
C
I
don't
know
what
what
other
council
members
think
about
that,
but
I
would
just
say:
go
forward
and
you
know
put
the
caveat
in
the
new
report
too
much
has
changed
and
I
just
think
it's
important
given
the
the
inflation
that
we
experienced
not
only
just
recently,
but
also
before
the
pandemic
on
construction
costs
in
our
city.
I
I
think
it's
important
to
get
those
updated
numbers.
C
I
do
have
a
kind
of
a
I'm,
not
sure
who
who
can
answer
this,
maybe
walter,
it's
you,
but
as
as
councilmember
cohen
stated,
you
know
every
year
we
get
these
big
scary
numbers,
and
I
it
did
beg
the
question
for
me
this
year,
and
maybe
I've
asked
you
this
before,
but
I
assume
that
other
large
cities
also
have
a
backlog.
I
mean
as
a
homeowner
myself.
C
We
we
have
a
backlog
of
maintenance
in
our
own
home
and
and
often
do
some
some
proactive,
I
would
say
minor,
proactive,
but
much
more
reactive,
as
you
talked
about
spending
on
our
on
our
home,
and
so
I
imagine
that
backlogs
are
not
not
zero.
In
most
cases,
in
most
cities,
where
do
we
fall
on
that
spectrum
for
other
large
cities
in
terms
of
backlog
per
square
foot?.
G
That
is
a
very
interesting
question:
councilmember
davis
I'll
have
to
do
some
research
in
terms
of
where
we
might
rank
to
comparable
size,
cities
or
larger
cities
within
the
nation
and
maybe
specifically
in
the
bay
area.
I'm
very
curious
about
that
as
well
too.
What
other
cities
backlogs
might
look
at
to
your
point
and
I
agree
again
the
more
preventative
maintenance
that
we
can
do
to
extend
the
life
of
our
existing
building
systems.
That
is
definitely
a
goal
of
ours.
G
Our
preventative
maintenance
budget,
though,
is
pretty
slim
if
I
got
a
call
correctly
it's
under
a
million
dollars,
so
looking
at
it
from
the
perspective
of
we
have
almost
330
million
dollars
in
deferred
maintenance,
that's
barely
a
third
of
one
percent
that
we're
looking
at
it
from
a
preventative
maintenance
cycle.
It's
really
just
focused
for
certain
building
systems
as
well,
not
everything
that
we've
shown
in
that
slide
with
building
shell
interior
systems,
etc.
C
I
know
you
have
a
lot
more
important
things
to
do,
but
it
just
it
just
didn't
make
me
wonder,
and
I
do
sit
on
the
the
retirement,
the
federated
retirement
board,
as
the
liaison
for
the
council,
and
we
often
talk
about
you-
know
benchmarking
ourselves
in
terms
of
not
only
our
returns,
but
also
our
unfunded
liability
and
that
kind
of
thing.
So
just
it
was
just
a
question
that
came
up
in
my
mind,
because
I
know
that
everybody's
probably
got
some
backlog.
C
K
K
You
know
one
one
thing
and
I
was
gonna
say
one
thing:
governments
are
bad
at,
but
I
think
one
thing
everyone
is
bad
at
including
homeowners
and
everybody
else
is
doing
the
preventive
maintenance
that
helps
us
so
that
we
don't
spend
a
lot
when
things
break.
We
always
wait
till
the
catastrophe,
so
we're
not
alone
in
doing
that,
but
when
you
said
a
million
dollars
as
our
is
our
preventive
maintenance
that
just
shocked
me
actually
that
we
would
have
such
a
small
number.
I
mean.
K
I
know
that
you
know
we
have
limited
resources,
but
we're
always
pennywise
and
pound
foolish,
and
things
like
this
and
so
just
finding
out.
How
do
other
cities
do
this?
What
kind
of
magnitude
is
set
aside
for
it
and
even
an
analysis
of
how
does
that?
Would
that
spending
an
increase
in
that
spending
prevent
future
increases
in
backlog
numbers,
I
think,
would
be
helpful,
and
then
that
could
be
a
helpful
thing
to
guide
us
through
a
future
budget
process.
J
J
Oh
yeah,
matt
kenob,
director
of
public
works.
I
just
went
away
and
I've
been
listening
the
whole
time,
but
just
got
promoted,
yeah
we'll.
Definitely
we
have
a
benchmarking
group,
that
of
large
california,
cities
that
we're
part
of
for
public
works
and
we
ask
questions
of
each
other
all
the
time
and
so
we'll
definitely
ask
these
questions
and
see
what
data
they
have
and,
if
there's
anything
good
that
we
have
to
share.
We'll
definitely
share
that
with
with
the
council
offices
and
then
incorporate
that
into
our
future
planning.
C
Thank
you.
That's
that's
great
to
the
to
the
point
about
you
know
kind
of
preventative
maintenance,
helping
with
preventing
a
backlog
later
the
explain
to
me
again
and
walter
you
can
I
I
know
you've
done
this
before
and
I
I
always
forget,
because
this
is
only
a
once
a
year
report
when
we're
talking
about
annual
ongoing
unfunded
needs.
G
G
Anything
can
give
and
that's
when
we
have
the
emergency
requests
at
that
point
where
maybe
something
gave
earlier
than
it
should
have
definitely
doing
the
research
figuring
out
why
it
failed
earlier.
But
that
is
an
immediate
need.
That's
needed
at
that
point,
but
yeah
it's
it's
tough
to
keep
the
the
cost
estimates
static,
but
they
consistently
move
as
each
year
goes
on
to
yeah
and
as
we
acquire
more
square
footage
and
more
buildings,
it
just
adds
on
so
it's
it's
tough.
Every
building's
age
is
different.
G
E
C
E
Yeah
there's
two
different
numbers
like
in
particular
for
streets,
there's
the
backlog
and
then
there's
the
street
condition.
So,
like
condition,
is
more
of
a
outcome,
you
know
like
what
what
the
streets
look
like,
whereas
the
backlog
is
more
of
an
input.
You
know
this
is
this:
is
the
amount
we
think
we
need
to
get
to
a
certain
point?
So
I
think
there
is
a
closer
correlation
to
the
condition
you
know.
If
we
don't
do
the
maintenance
that
we
need
to
do,
there's
a
closer
correlation
there.
E
C
And
then
I
just
wanted
to
ask
one
question
about
general
fund
versus
the
special
capital
funds.
The
the
difference
is
very
large
and
obviously
we
have
sort
of
less
control
over
the
special
funds
and
the
capital
funds.
I
don't
know
who
wants
to
take
this
question,
but
how
would
we
even
I
guess
I
don't
understand,
just
off
the
top
of
my
head-
how
we
would
go
about
addressing
the
the
backlog
within
the
special
and
capital
funds
areas?
J
This
is
matt
cano
I'll,
take
a
first
cut
at
that,
and
it
would
it's.
I
don't
want
to
say
it
depends
and
then
stop
talking,
but
it
does
depend
in
a
way
on
that
special
fund.
For
example,
there's
certain
special
funds
that
are
tax
based,
and
so
we
could
increase
that
specific
tax,
whether
it's
a
local,
whether
it's
a
downtown
hotel
based
tax
or
whether
it's
a
conveyance
fee
such
as
the
construction
and
conveyance
tax.
We
could
increase
or
change
that
tax.
A
lot
of
that
that
would
require
going
into
voters.
J
We
probably
have
to
look
one
by
one
at
each
special
fund.
However,
I
would
imagine
most
of
them
would
need
to
go
to
the
voters
to
change
kind
of
how
much
we're
collecting
from
that
that
tax
or
whatever
that
special
fund
is
coming
from
so
unfortunately
kind
of
a
one
by
one
analysis
which
I'll
stop
talking
for
a
minute.
I
don't
know
if
I
answered
your
question.
C
Yeah,
no,
that's
helpful.
I
guess
I
just
I
looked
at
you,
know
the
the
technology
and
there's
a
general
fund
component
to
that
and
then
there's
a
technology
component,
that's
in
the
special
and
capital
funds
and
I'm
assuming
that's
department-based,
I'm
guessing
that's
department-based,
so
I
was
kind
of
wondering
like
for
each
of
these
lines.
It's
not
like
there's
one
fund
for
each
of
these
lines,
so
the
technology
line
and
the
special
and
capital
funds
would
be
some
dot
funds.
Some
public
works
funds
right
where
we're
talking
about
infrastructure
capital
funds.
C
J
Yeah-
and
I
don't
I
don't
know-
the
technology
went
off
the
top
of
my
head
specifically,
but
the
construction
and
conveyance
taxes
is
a
really
great
example
of
it's.
It's
it's
a
if
to
change.
It
there's
been
a
determination
a
while
back
that
we
would
have
to
go
to
the
voters
that
special
fund
actually
goes
to
parks,
fire
library
and
a
few
other
departments
that
comes
from
the
city's
annual
construction
and
conveyance
tax,
and
so
that's
that
again,
that
is
one
special
fund.
J
That
kind
of
gets
spread
out
to
multiple
different
departments
and
even
that
spread
by
department
may
need
to
go
to
the
voters,
to
change
over
time
and-
and
we
could
I'll
follow
up
specifically
on
the
technology,
one
to
see
what
that
source
is
and
what
it
would
take
to
change
that.
Just
to
make
sure
you
have
a
clear
answer.
C
E
Yeah,
thank
you,
chair,
just
a
quick
question
in
regards
to
the
convention
center.
So
you
mentioned
an
evaluation
of
phase
rehabilitation
needed
for
I'm
sorry,
not
the
convention
center
cpa
center
for
performing
arts
that
the
rehabilitation
needed
for
the
cpa
is
under
development.
Now
it
sounds
like
that
is
phased
rehab
of
the
current
cpa
and
looking
at
the
dollar
amount.
Obviously
it's
pretty
significant
42
million
backlog.
Can
you
describe
a
little
bit
more?
I
know
councilmember
foley
was
talking
about
it
too.
E
G
Yes,
customer
problems.
Thank
you
very
much
for
the
question.
I
think
it
was
a
couple
of
meetings
ago.
You
encouraged
specifically
about
the
cpa
as
well,
and
the
question
of
whether
we
you
know
should
consider
maybe
a
redo
for
that
facility
based
on
the
extensive
needs,
and
at
that
point
I
think
it
was
much
I
shouldn't
say
much
less,
but
considerably
less
than
the
42.5
million
that
we're
seeing
now.
G
This
could
include
also
the
user
experience
on
the
inside
of
the
theater
seating
as
well,
but
more
specifically,
currently
looking
at
the
mechanical
system
in
particular,
and
that's
one
big
chunk
again
about
seven
seven
and
a
half
million
compared
to
the
42.5
million
for
that
facility
for
specific
projects.
We
can
get
you
that
that
clear
detail.
I
don't
have
those
details
off
the
top
of
my
list,
but
we
do
have
our
team
members
I've
gone
through
and
have
estimated
that
current
amount.
We
can
get
that
project
list
to
you
as
well.
E
G
For
mechanical
systems
such
as
the
chillers
on
the
boilers,
you
can
look
at
it
anywhere
from
for
say,
a
20
to
30
year,
estimated
timeline,
depending
on
use,
depending
on
what
type
of
system
and
the
size
as
well.
So
this
is
something
where
also
looking
at
the
chiller
system
and
in
particular,
if
we
were
to
move
this
more
to
an
all
electric
system.
That
is
where
our
engineering
team
was
asked.
G
But
that
is
something
that
we
are
looking
at
new
technologies,
but
also
keeping
in
line
with
the
newer
city
policies
as
we're
trying
to
achieve
zero
net
carbon
things
that
nature
moving
towards
an
all
electric,
at
least
for
that
particular
project.
Specific.
That's
that's
how
we
came
up
with
that
cost
estimate.
E
Lastly,
have
we
done
an
evaluation
of
the
building
to
even
determine
like
hey
it?
Does
this
building
have
the
bones
to
allow
us
to
invest
and
upgrade
in
it,
so
that
that
way,
we
could,
you
know,
maintain
this
building
for
another
30
years,
but
in
a
manner
that
we
want
it's
similar
to
what
you're
talking
about
now
right
with
the
right
type
of
infrastructure
in
it.
Have
we
done
that?
Do
we
know
that
this
building
would
would
would
hold
up
for
that
purposes,
it
kind
of
in
essence,
we
could.
G
Yes,
the
structural
integrity
is
key
and
you're
right.
You
cannot
build
upon
something
that
might
be
in
a
weakened
state
where
it
doesn't
make
sense
to
build
upon
that.
At
this
point,
I
will
fall
back
with
our
team
to
see
if
that
structural
integrity
assessment
was
done
and
whether
a
rehab
of
existing
is
even
possible
based
on
what
they
have
found.
E
Okay
and
that's
just
obviously
I
I
do
actually
really
like
the
building
itself,
and
I
like
that,
the
design
all
that.
But
I
recognize
it
is
extremely
outdated
right
I
mean
it
was
a
pain
within
my
first
few
years
to
try
and
ensure
that
we
had
enough
ada,
accessible,
seating
and-
and
that
was
I
know,
the
hard
part
was
just.
How
do
you?
You
know?
E
How
do
you
build
that
in
because
it
wasn't
ever
thought
of
right
it
initially
when
it's
built
so
you're,
trying
to
fit
a
square
peg
into
a
round
hole
right
and
and
and
you're
trying
to
keep
the
integrity
of
a
building
right
that
you
want
to
keep
with
it.
The
same,
look
and
historic
nature,
and
so
it's
just
very,
very,
very
challenging
and
then,
as
it
looks
like
right,
some
of
these
investments
are
going
to
be
extremely
costly
and
they're
going
to
be
investments.
C
Thank
you
all
right,
seeing
no
more
hands
from
my
colleagues.
I
would
like
a
motion
to
accept
this
report,
move
to
accept,
and
just
I
just
noticed
on
the
the
motion
to
accept.
Does
that
also
include
to
accept
that
this
report
will
be
presented
every
other
year
so
that
the
next
report
occurs
in
2024
instead
of
2023?
I
D
E
C
A
A
What
what
that
is
in
terms
of
what
we're
going
to
use
this
for
is
really
a
strategic
plan
to
outline
how
we're
going
to
actually
address
many
of
the
really
progressive
mobility
goals
that
are
embedded
in
many
documents,
including
the
general
plan,
climate,
smart
and
a
number
of
others.
So
we're
going
to
talk
about
some
of
the
policies
that
we're
thinking
about
today.
This
will
come
to
council
in
the
future,
but
right
now
we're
just
going
to
give
a
status
report
with
me.
A
L
L
There
we
go
come
on
there.
We
go
all
right
all
right,
good
afternoon,
chair
and
members
of
the
committee,
I'm
pretty
excited
to
be
coming
near
the
end
of
the
move,
san
jose
plan.
This
is,
I
think,
the
fourth
time
we've
come
to
the
committee
to
discuss
this
plan,
and
so
now
we
really
get
to
talk
about
kind
of.
Where
is
this
going?
L
We're
also
going
to
be
just
mentioning
two
of
the
other
supportive
policies
that
are
working
their
way
through
the
system
and
that's
the
transit
first
policy,
as
well
as
the
update
to
the
council
policy
5-1
otherwise
known
as
the
vmt
policy
augustine
and
nick
from
my
team
are
here
to
answer
questions
on
those
two
policies.
They've
been
leading
that
development,
but
to
try
and
keep
the
presentation
short
I'll,
be
doing
the
presentation
myself.
L
Okay,
so
this
year
is
really
a
big
year
for
dot
in
terms
of
figuring
out
where
we're
going.
What
are
we
doing
next?
How
do
we
take
the
guiding
policies
that
we
have
in
the
city,
the
general
plan
climate
smart
and
really
turn
them
into
the
strategies
and
actions
we
need
to
take
on
move
san
jose
is
really
the
umbrella
policy
or
the
umbrella
plan.
As
john
was
just
saying,
it's
the
strategic
plan.
This
is
the
plan
that
helps
us
really
say:
what
are
we
prioritizing
with
our
resources?
L
One
you'll
see
actually
tomorrow
at
council
at
full
council
is
the
emerging
mobility
action
plan
and
that's
a
very
narrow
plan
that
really
looks
at
what
are
we
going
to
do
with
these
new
technologies
that
are
coming
to
market
and
how
to
make
sure
that
they
serve
the
most
the
best
serve
our
city,
the
best
way
possible?
Of
course
we
have.
The
bike
plan
is
another.
What
we
call
a
modal
plan,
other
plans
that
we
have
out
there
are
movemento
and
east
san
jose
downtown
plan,
which
is
in
progress.
L
We
have
some
other
the
west
san
jose
as
a
plan
is
another
one
in
progress,
so
just
wanted
to
kind
of
give
you
guys
a
picture
of
how
this
all
fits
together
and
some
of
the
upcoming
pieces
that
you'll
be
considering
as
well
as
what
san
jose
itself
is.
Okay,
you
guys
have
seen
various
versions
of
this
slide
over
the
last
two
years.
L
These
are
the
nine
goals
that
we've
set
out
to
try
to
address,
with
with
move
san
jose
and
in
effect
these
are
becoming
dot's
goals
right.
This
is
what
we're
trying
to
address.
We
develop
these
goals
with
a
lot
of
input
from
the
public
through
some
workshops
and
the
public
and
have
brought
them
to
you
for
consideration
actually
twice
now,
so
I
won't
belabor
them
in
the
spirit
of
making
things
fast.
L
So
where
do
we
go
from
there
right?
How
did
we
get
to
actually
having
a
proposal
from
those
from
those
goals
all
right?
So
this
was
our
development
process.
Here
right.
We
we
set
out
those
goals
and
then
we
started
really
looking
at.
How
are
we
going
to
track
progress
on
them,
and
that
was
an
initial
set
of
key
performance
indicators
that
kind
of
became
the
thread
that
kind
of
runs
through
all
of
the
rest
of
the
work.
L
F
L
L
It's
called
the
decision
support
system,
and
this
really
helped
us
estimate
the
outcome
of
what
the
different
actions
will
be,
how
how
will
they
actually
affect
our
city
and
which
one
should
be
strategizing,
and
so,
in
the
end,
we
end
up
with
a
package
that
is
put
together
from
this.
Basically,
a
national
perspective,
through
our
local
community-based
engagement
process,
all
run
through
this
key
performance
indicator
system
to
help
us
get
to
a
recommendation
all
right,
these
just
kind
of
talking
a
little
bit
about
the
outreach
process.
L
As
many
of
you
probably
remember,
we've
been
very
fortunate
to
be
able
to
bring
on
board
for
community-based
organizations
who
have
helped
us
reach
out
into
communities
that
we
just
wouldn't
have
been
able
to
otherwise,
with
the
connections
they
have
and
the
insight
they
have
to
be
able
to
do
that
together,
we've
hosted
over
seven
workshops,
many
of
them
in
spanish
and
vietnamese
to
make
sure
that
we're
doing
a
best
job
we
possibly
can
with
outreach
the
community
feedback.
This
slide
is
actually
just
a
little
bit
old.
L
This
is
still
the
presentation
I
was
supposed
to
give
a
month
ago.
We've
done
two
more
public
workshops
since
then,
and
our
overall
number
is
more
around
1500
or
so,
but
we've
been
very
successful
and
and
reaching
a
lot
of
people
in
san
jose
to
discuss
this
plan,
and
we've
been
very
proud
of
that
and
you'll
notice
throughout
the
presentation
the
these
faces
here
on
the
side
with
quotes,
we
did
do.
L
What
do
you
call
them?
Focus
groups
and
persona
building
right,
so
this
is
we
sat
down
with
some
people
from
our
city
and
really
got
into
the
issues
with
them
interviewing
them
for
over
an
hour
and
in
the
personas
development.
We
then
actually
followed
them
around
for
a
whole
day
and
really
took
notes
on
okay.
How
is
transportation
part
of
your
life?
What
are
the
different
aspects
of
it
that
that
affect
your
ability
to
get
around
or
just
live
your
life
right
and
get
your
kids
to
school
or
go?
A
L
So
what
does
the
actual
proposal
of
this
look
like
so
moving
right
into
what
this
is?
So
what
we
did
is
we
took
those
400
different
strategies
we
originally
had.
We
boiled
them
down
to
26..
These
are
just
some
examples
of
them,
but
we
did
break
them
into
three
different
categories.
Streets,
transit
programs
and
policy
streets
is
kind
of
what
we
think
about.
As
generally
for
dot
right,
this
is
our
design.
This
is
our
use
of
space.
This
is
our
programming
of
the
streets
right.
What
are
we
gonna?
L
What
materials
are
we
gonna
use?
How
are
we
gonna
bring
in
green
infrastructure
and
shading?
How
are
we
going
to
make
more
and
more
streets
feel
very
comfortable
for
folks,
walking
or
using
wheelchairs
to
get
around
on
things
like
that,
and
this
you
know
vision,
zero
kind
of
fits
into
this
pocket.
The
bike
plan
fits
into
this
pocket
all
the
complete
streets
pieces
that
we've
been
working
on
fit
into
this.
The
second.
L
By
this
I
mean
commercial
and
housing
development
around
what
comes
out
of
the
transportation
piece
of
that,
and
we
want
to
see
if
we
can
streamline
that
and
at
the
same
time
move
that
money
into
more
most
effective
projects
possible.
So
that's
transportation
impact
fee
and
there's
more
and
of
course,
you
can
search
through
the
plan
itself
to
see
the
full
list
of
26..
L
L
It
can
be
quite
different,
but
we
did
at
first
moved
to
a
district
geography,
so
we
went
through
and
looked
at
what
what
each
district
needs
right
and
and
so
the
different
ways
we
did
that
were
first,
just
really
taking
an
overall
look
at
the
district
and
some
of
the
unique
characteristics
that
make
each
district
unique
and
then
looked
at
the
equity
frameworks
and
really
tried
to
figure
out.
Where
are
the
communities
that
have
not
gotten.
L
From
the
transportation
pieces
in
the
past,
or
at
least
not
in
the
equitable
way
and
started
figuring
out
where
we
can
kind
of
push
towards
that,
and
we
looked
at
the
key
performance
indicators
and
scores
and
trying
to
figure
out
where
there
are
lackings
in
the
different
districts
and
where
they
might
best
where
investment
would
pay
off
the
most
in
each
one.
And
then
we
looked
at
the
plan
projects
and
tried
to
figure
out
where
there
are
gaps
or
just
where
there
are
actually
planned
projects.
L
We
should
be
starting
to
push
forward
right
and
then
strategies
and
actions
really
is
what
are
we
going
to
try
and
do
with
each
one?
So
what
does
this
look
like?
So
here's
district
3
as
an
example
and
you
can
see
towards
the
top-
is
the
direction
we
want.
These
key
performance
indicators
to
move
the
city
average
is
there
in
the
middle.
L
All
of
the
scores
have
been
normalized
to
make
them
at
least
somewhat
legible,
and
you
can
see
here
the
nine
goals
across
the
bottom
and
you
can
see
in
district
three
there's
some
things
that
are
doing
very
well.
Like
move,
move
the
economy
right,
we're
seeing
jobs
in
downtown
we're,
seeing
more
jobs
coming
in
downtown
we're,
seeing
things
like
connected
neighborhoods,
so
sorry
about
that
connected
neighborhoods
in
the
15-minute
neighborhood.
This
means
that
they're
walkable.
This
means
that
you
can.
You
can
go,
get
your
groceries.
L
You
can
go,
get
your
coffee
close
by
home.
These
things
are
doing
pretty
well
downtown,
but
you
can
see
that
some
of
these
other
elements,
such
as
transportation,
safety
or
less
driving,
aren't
doing
as
well,
and
so
that's
the
kinds
of
areas
we'd
want
to
focus
on
in
this
district,
all
right
and
kind
of
see
the
highlight
there.
L
So
that
leads
us
to
is
some
of
the
strategies,
then
that
stand
out
for
this
district
and
each
district
has
its
own
analysis.
That
again,
you
can
look
up
at
the
on
the
project
website
to
pull
into
or
dig
into
right
and
so
for
d3.
Here
these
are
the
kinds
of
pieces
that
we'd
want
to
dig
into
to
help
us
move
those
needles
in
the
right
direction.
L
And,
of
course,
we
have
the
downtown
transportation
plan,
which
is
already
kind
of
assuming
this
overall
framework
within
its
work,
make
sure
we're
all
aligned
now
looking
at
the
big
picture
right.
So
that's
the
the
district
level
picture
now
doing
that
analysis
across
the
city.
Our
goal
here
is
at
the
bottom
right
this.
This
is
a
kind
of
how
do
we
meet
our
goals
through
these
different
things
and
we
put
together
a
few
different
scenarios
and
said
all
right.
L
L
L
Of
course,
you'll
remember
back
in
2018,
we
changed
the
system
as
as
per
state
law
to
move
from
what
was
called
level
of
service,
which
basically
looked
at
the
impact
of
more
automobiles
at
a
particular
intersection
to
a
much
broader
and
environmentally
aligned
metric
called
vehicle
miles.
Traveled,
which
looks
at
how
many
miles
of
vehicle
travel
are
related
to
new
projects,
and
when
we
got
this
policy
passed
back
in
2018.
L
A
substantial
impact,
sorry,
the
word
is
escaping
me
right
there,
as
well
as
how
to
promote
more
affordable
housing
and
then
there's
a
little
bit
of
technical
stuff.
We've
been
working
on
so
one
to
promote
more
general
housing
or
market
rate
housing.
We
are
recommending
and
opening
up
the
policy
override
mechanism,
so
this
is
when
policies
have
significant
and
unavoidable
impacts.
That's
the
phrase
I
was
looking
for
before
housing
projects
outside
of
urban
villages
did
not
have
access
to
that
policy.
L
They
basically
had
no
path
forward
through
this.
This
policy,
so
we're
amen,
we're
proposing
to
amend
that
so
any
land
use
project
that
is
consistent
with
the
general
plan
would
have
access
to
that
mechanism,
giving
council
more
discretion
to
take
on
those
actions.
We
are
also
looking
to
further
promote
affordable
housing.
You
can
see
here
on
these
maps
right
now.
The
current
map
are
the
areas
of
the
city
where
affordable
housing
has
a
streamlined
approach
to
sequa,
meaning
they
don't
have
to
do
sql
analysis
for
transportation.
L
There's
a
lot,
a
lot
of
jurisdictions
following
our
work
and
they
basically
develop
that
into
a
county-wide
system.
We're
gonna
be
moving
over
to
their
system.
Now
the
the
number
the
question
we
keep
get
asking
is
that
change
the
numbers
and
no,
it
doesn't
change
the
numbers
because
those
we
we
use
the
same
transportation
model
that
informs
them
very
quick.
Last
piece
here
is
the
transit
first
policy,
we're
very
excited
to
be
bringing
this
forward.
L
Transit
first
policy
will
be
the
policy
as
well
as
some
of
the
tools
that
the
city
staff
will
use
to
progress.
I
think
responsibility
I
should
say
for
our
element
of
making
transit
successful.
Of
course,
the
policy-
and
this
is
broken
up
into
three
different
parts.
One
is
the
policy
itself,
and
that
really
states-
you
know
hey.
Where
do
we
prioritize
and
why
do
we
prioritize
transit
and
give
us
a
comp?
L
You
know
a
clear
statement
from
from
council
as
to
where
staff
should
be
making
hard
decisions
right,
because
a
lot
of
this
is
you
know
at
this
corner
we
can
make
transit,
go
faster
or
slower
or
automobiles
or
something
else,
and
that
decision
kind
of
gets
made
in
a
you
know
by
whatever
direction
we're
given
at
that
moment,
and
so
this
should
help
us
make
more
decisions
towards
making
transit
work.
Better.
L
We've
developed
an
internal
toolkit,
and
this
is
a
lot
of
best
practices
and
things
like
that
for
staff
to
take
on
as
we're
thinking
through
road
design
and
development,
and
the
last
one
is,
is
the
network
pieces,
and
this
is
where
we're
looking
at
general
plan
designations
for
roadways
and
how
that
relates
back
to
vta
routes
and
making
sure
that
the
general
plan
designations
align
well
with
making
sure
service
works.
Well,
why
does
that
matter?
L
Because
those
general
plan
designations
are
what
trigger
basically
the
policy
right
if
things
are
on
a
general
in
a
grand
boulevard,
for
example,
that
means
we
would
give
more
priority
to
transit
over
other
modes,
and
so
we're
doing
some
work
to
make
sure
that
those
those
networks
are
aligned,
and
so
here
you
can
see
kind
of
different
pictures
of
of
what
that
looks
like
all
right.
Well,
thank
you
for
listening
to
my
blitz
there
I'll
take
questions.
C
C
Remember
that
public
speakers
are
not
to
engage
in
conversation
with
the
chair
council,
members
or
staff,
and
that
all
committee
members
staff
and
the
public
are
to
refrain
from
abusive
language
failure
to
comply
with
this
code
of
conduct
and
disturbing
or
disrupting
or
impeding
the
orderly
conduct
of
this
meeting
will
result
in
removal
from
this
meeting.
So
I
just
want
to
be
clear
about
that
and
now
we'll
go
to
the
public,
and
that
is
the
first
speaker
is
calling
user
one.
A
B
B
So
when
you
lose
that
lens
in
that
framework,
I
think
it
just
naturally
develops
a
more
interesting
way
to
a
more
helpful
way,
a
more
organized
way
to
to
address
our
issues
as
a
city,
and
so
I
I
have
concerns
about
a
bit
about
the
streamlining
process,
we're
talking
about
for
the
future
of
the
housing
issues
and
what
the
city
council
can
be
more.
Can
you
be
given
a
better
flexibility
about?
I
I
just
want
to
question
that
here.
B
B
Each
individual
city
is
working
on
ideas
of
what
can
be
openness
and
accountability
with
the
future
of
their
technology,
when
each
city
learns
to
do
that
in
their
own
good
ideas
and
pace,
that's
developing,
that's
part
of
the
future
of
sustainability
and
accountability.
That
really
has
to
be.
I
think
it
has
an
awesome
place
in
our
future
that
really
helps
find
community
participation
in
the
future
of
this
sort
of
decision
making
and
organization
and
just
this
process.
B
C
C
H
A
E
Yeah,
thank
you
chair,
thank
you,
staff
for
the
report
and
the
update
appreciate
the
work
that
we're
doing
here
in
in
this
regard,
and
certainly
making
something
much
more
multi-modal
and
planning
for
that.
I'd
echo
the
comments
from
our
last
speaker,
as
I
think
we
all
would.
We
would
love
to
see
light
rail
speed
up
through
downtown.
E
We
do
this
time
to
time,
and
certainly
when
it
comes
to,
for
instance,
environmental
impacts,
historical
impacts,
and
in
this
regard,
I
think
we
should
have
some
similar
opportunities
for
our
bmt
goals
and
and
then
being
able
to
to
weigh
that
out.
Amongst
the
other
goals
that
we
have,
namely
the
need
for
for
more
housing
and
so
looking
at
where
we've
started
and
where
we're
at
now.
E
But
when
we
look
at
the
urban
villages,
I
well
number
one.
I
I
think
those
were
developed
quite
some
time
ago
now
and
when
you
look
out
ahead,
I
think
that
there
are
likely
other
development
or
develop
areas
where
we
could
develop.
I
should
say
throughout
the
city
that
we
may
be
interested
in
expanding
to,
or
at
least
want
to
to
consider
for
potential
growth
of
housing.
E
So
I
I'd
like
to
land
somewhere
in
between
that,
where,
where
we
are,
are
giving
an
opportunity
for
the
council
to
weigh
in
on
some
considerations
overriding
considerations
that
it
fits
with
what
you've
prescribed
here,
but
but
goes
a
little
bit
beyond
just
the
urban
villages
that
we
that
we've
currently
agreed
upon
on
the
council.
So
I'd
like
to
hear
some
feedback
from
from
the
staff
on
that,
and
maybe
what
some
of
your
thoughts
are-
and
I
recognize
here-
it's
hypothetical
in
there.
E
L
L
There
is
a
a
specific
fee,
that's
associated
with
the
amount
of
vehicle
miles,
traveled,
not
mitigated
by
the
project
right.
So
that's
and
that's
that
same
mechanism-
that's
been
there
since,
since
we
passed
the
policy
in
2018,
but
we
have
to
make
sure
to
make
it
really
clear.
We
have
opened
up
that
mechanism
to
anywhere
in
the
city
at
this
point
for
residential
projects
that
was
already
open
to
commercial
projects.
E
Yeah,
it
would
be
a
further
refinement.
I
think
what
you're
talking
about
is
looking
at
something
anywhere
in
the
city,
but
under
the
the
context
that
it
fits
within
the
the
general
plan
that
what
I'm
reading
here
that
the
I
guess
for
it's
it's
item.
Three,
I'm
sorry
in
the
in
the
country
5-1
the
suggestion
the
project
is
either
100,
affordable,
right,
residential
or
project
constructs
or
funds,
multimodal
transportation
improvements,
as
detailed
in
appendix
b,
is
and
then
it's
market
rate
housing
located
in
urban
villages
and
that's
where
the
market
rate
housing
comes
into
play.
A
L
So
it's
a
little
bit
different
than
what
you're
understanding
right.
So
we
again
we
are
allowing
any
market
rate
housing
project
anywhere
in
the
city
to
use
the
mechanism
that
we're
proposing
and
they're,
not
it's
not
restricted
to
urban
villages
anymore.
In
our
proposal,
I
apologize
if
our
memo
is
not
clear
enough
on
that.
Just.
O
Yeah
I
was,
I
was
just
gonna
say
it
does
sound.
We
can
get
you
the
potentially
revised
language
because
it
sounds
like
you
are
looking
at
that
current
language
and
it
is
change
as
ramses
described
to
change
and
say:
if
you're
allowed
to
do
housing
for
the
general
plan,
then
you
are
allowed
to
move
forward.
If
the
council
decides
that
a
statement
of
overriding
consideration
is
appropriate
in
this
case.
So
it
is
a
change
from
that
that
currently
authored
policy.
E
E
L
L
We
need
certain
neighborhoods
to
do
a
lot
more
of
the
shifting
and
obviously
downtown
is
the
place
where
we
need
the
most
shifting
to
happen
right,
and
so
the
fact
that
you
know
downtown
is
below
the
mark
has
to
do
with
the
fact
that
it
actually
has
to
carry
more
of
the
weight
within
the
whole
system
of
the
city.
To
for
us
to
get
to
our
goals.
E
L
E
Because
I
know
jessica's
riding
her
bike
and
I'm
like
that
has
got
to
count
as
a
positive
to
mark
for
us
so
and
I
I
don't
want
that
to
be,
I
don't
want
her
to
think
she's
hurting
that
goal
right,
she's,
helping
it
we're
all
help.
Okay.
Now
I
get
it.
Thank
you
that
that
is
helpful.
That
does
make
sense,
and
I
I
would
expect
it
as
well
right
that
was
the
thought.
Was
it
in
downtown.
You
know
you
would
hope
that
you
got
a
lot
more
people
that
are
driving
less.
E
I
know
I,
I
know
significantly
of
a
number
of
people
that
are
moving
into
the
new
development,
specifically
the
marrow
towers
across
the
street.
I've
been
able
to
meet
some
of
the
new
residents
and
they
don't
have
cars,
and
that's
terrific,
to
hear
right.
I
mean
that's
exactly
what
we
wanted
to
hear
we're
we're
still
several
years
away
from
bart
being,
you
know
outside
for
them,
but
I
can
tell
you
they
were
already
excited
about
that
right.
E
C
Thanks
councilmember
pros,
and
I
will
call
on
you
in
a
second
council
member
cohen-
I
just
want
to
clarify
something
about
council
policy
5-1,
the
vmt
policy.
Those
changes,
if
I
remember
correctly,
the
direction
from
council
members
when
we
voted
on
that
was
for
was
to
come
back
to
council.
I
I
would
like
to
clarify:
are
you
coming?
Will
you
come
back
to
this
committee
with
those
proposed
changes
specifically
since
we
didn't
see
the
draft
before
it
comes
to
council
would
be
really
helpful.
K
K
O
K
But
so
I'm
I'm
curious
as
we
as
some
of
those
sites
begin
to
get
projects
coming
forward.
I
just
want
to
understand
better
what
the
process
would
be
and
what
developers
would
have
to
go
through
on
sites
like
that,
because
I
think
there's
I've
heard
concern
from
some
about
what
it
would
mean
for
for
the
ability
to
move
forward
on
on
certain
projects.
K
O
Absolutely
council
member-
and
I
think
you
know
it
has
been
it's
flown
by,
but
it
has
been
four
years
since
council
policy
5-1
went
into
place,
so
it
would
probably
make
sense
to
combine
the
request
to
come
back
with
a
reminder
about
the
sql
process
and
how
it
works
with
transportation
and
how
these
changes
would
would
affect.
Particular
you
know
properties
and
the
process
that
they
would
go
through.
K
O
I
Thank
you.
Thank
you
for
the
presentation
on
move
san
jose
and
ramsay's
thanks.
Thank
you
for
putting
together
the
town
hall.
We
did
last
monday
for
mostly
focusing
on
disabilities,
or
we
had
people
in
the
audience
who
had
disabilities
and
were
concerned
about
access
and
and
mobility.
So
I
I
appreciate
that
that
was
really
very
helpful,
and
one
thing
that
came
up
there
with
there
was
is
how
our
seniors
are
getting
around,
not
whether
they
have
to
go
from
if
they're
homebound
and
go
from
one
doctor's
appointment
to
the
other's
doctor's
appointment.
I
L
For
example,
there's
a
really
great
pilot
project
to
see
if
we
can
do
what's
called
centralized
signal
priority
where
basically,
we
use
the
system
we
have
on
the
fire
trucks
where
fire
trucks
just
get
green,
no
matter
where
they're
going,
because
we
know
where
their
gps
signal
is,
and
we
get
a
trace
from
that.
And
that
goes
back
to
our
signal
system.
Looking
at
setting
up
something
similar
for
the
transit
vehicles,
it's
pretty
it's
expensive
in
itself,
but
less
expensive
than
doing
a
bunch
of
individual
intersections
and
things
like
bus.
L
I
L
I
mean,
I
think
one
thing:
is
we
gotta
get
this
policy
in
front
of
you
guys,
so
you
can.
You
can
tell
us
what
you
think
of
it
and
see
if
you
want
to
adopt
what
we're
proposing,
but
then
two
it's
it's.
It's
lining
up
funding
right.
I
mean
it
really
is
we
can
put
a
policy
in
place
but
getting
it
done.
L
Nick
frey
here
has
been
our
our
main
author
and
and
our
cat
herder
on
this
project
and
doing
an
incredible
job,
but
we
can
say
we're
going
to
prioritize
everything,
but
it's
always
going
to
take
money
right
and
it's
making
those
choices
when
they
actually
do
come
up
right.
Are
we
going
to
take
a
lane
for
transit?
P
L
Are
we
going
to
allow
for
certain
automobile
movements
to
slow
down
so
that
transit
can
move
faster?
Those
are
real
choices
that
we
have
made,
we
kind
of
say
we
sometimes
we
say:
we've
we've
killed
the
transit
system
and
it's
not
bad.
We've
hurt
the
transit
system
through
a
thousand
paper
cuts
right.
We've
made
minor
decisions
that
don't
seem
very
affected
or
very
big
over
many
many
many
years
and
they've
stacked
up
against
transit,
and
so
we
need
to
start
pulling
that
decision-making
process
back
the
other
way.
L
It
is
a
long-term
process.
This
is
not
something
that's
going
to
happen
overnight
and
it's
going
to
take
us
working
with
vta
to
kind
of
really
focus
where
we're
going.
But
if
you're
asking
what
you
can
do,
the
most
is,
you
know,
consider
the
policy
help
us
make
sure
it's
as
good
as
it
can
be
and
then
follow
up
with
decisions
afterwards
that
continue
to
follow
that
line.
I
I
I
think
that's
one
of
the
things
we
need
to
do
is
speed
up
transit
so
that
people
consider
it
as
an
alternative
to
getting
in
their
cars
if
they,
if
it
takes
longer
to
get
on
a
bus
to
get
where
they
want
to
go
they're
not
going
to
take
that
if
they
can't
that
that
opportunity,
if
they
can
get
in
their
car
and
drive,
so
we
need
to
do
everything
we
can
to
speed
up
transit
in.
In
that
way,
I
see
rob
raises
hands.
Rob.
Do
you
want
to
weigh
in
here.
O
O
Yes,
in
fact,
so
this
policy
originally
went
through
the
planning,
commission
and
the
city
council,
and
so
that
is
the
path
and
actually
is
going
to
planning
commission
in
april.
So
we
will
definitely
be
ready
by
may.
It
does
need
to
go
to
planning
commission
before
city
council
as
it
affects
the
new
development
world.
I
O
B
L
I
D
D
That
transit
is
mass
transit
is
just
not
realistic
when
you
have
to
leave
the
house
to
go
to
work
at
3am,
but
in
terms
of
the
design,
and
so
I
just
wanted
to
add
that
comment,
because
you
know
some
parts
of
the
city
are
very
different
in
that
regard,
and
sometimes
they
drive.
Sometimes
they
get
on
a
bicycle
and
ride
several
miles.
You
know
to
or
from.
L
Yeah,
thank
you
for
those
comments
and
we
absolutely
hear-
and
that's
you
know
part
of
the
district
level
analysis
we
did
but
yeah
I
mean,
I
think,
that
they
say
we're
not
trying
to
get
everyone
to
do
the
same
thing
right.
We're
trying
to
get
it.
Yep,
yep
yep,
trying
to
get
a
system
that
allows
for
all
people
to
exist
and
within
the
lives
that
they
have
right
and
right
now
we
actually
have
a
one
size
fits
all
systems.
C
Regarding
the
move,
san
jose
plan
and
even
the
assumptions
that
are
built
into
the
vmt
policy,
when
I
I
feel
like,
I
have
to
say
this
because
we're
in
silicon
valley,
when
we're
talking
about
future
transportation,
modalities
and
companies,
we
get
our
offices
get
contacted
regularly.
To
tell
us
about
these
things,
and
we
were
one
of
the
first
cities
to
have
a
scooter
policy,
for
example,
and
there
are
some
different
autonomous
vehicles
and
little
pods
that
are
that
are
being
worked
on
right
now
in
in
our
area.
C
L
Yeah
great
question
and
absolutely
yeah.
Those
are
you
know.
Kind
of
those
are
the
fun
questions
in
a
certain
way
right.
So
one
thing
I'll
say
is
this:
a
car
is
a
car,
whether
it's
driven
by
a
person
or
a
robot.
It
takes
up
a
certain
amount
of
space
now
on
a
highway
you
can
make
because
of
speed
and
space.
You
can
make
them
basically
take
up
less
space,
they
can
drive
closer
together
and
they
can
create
platooning
kinds
of
effects.
L
So
I
don't
know
if
I
completely
agree
with
that
analysis
or
if
it's
absolutely
right
for
san
jose
we're
not
san
francisco.
But
what
we're
seeing
is
that
avs
are
very
effective
in
helping
us
deal
with
safety
and
that
are
very
effective
in
helping
us
deal
with
access.
Folks
who
can't
drive
folks
who
have
trouble
getting
around,
but
do
they
help
us
with
vehicle
miles
travel?
Do
they
help
us
densify
and
and
reach
our
urban
goals?
L
L
That
being
said,
emerging
mobility
plan
is
going
to
council
tomorrow
and
we
will
be
we've
set
up
through
that
process.
That
plan
really
looking
at.
How
do
we
address
the
community's
needs,
as
these
systems
come
out
and
we
haven't
said
exactly
in
that
plan
when,
but
when
should
we
actually
spend
the
time?
L
Because
I've
been
in
transportation
planning
for
for
over
15
years
now
and
since
day,
one
avs
were
supposedly
around
the
corner
and
we
have
spent
an
immense
amount
of
time
figuring
out
how
avs
are
going
to
shape
transportation
and
they're
still
not.
Here
now
it
seems
like
they're
around
the
corner
right,
because
crews
and
waymo
are
supposedly
launching
well,
they
come
to
us
who
knows
right
and
so
really
making
sure
we're
spending
the
right
amount
of
time
on
the
right.
L
O
Here
one
small
addition
to
that
jessica,
zanck,
deputy
director
for
dot,
is
only
that
there
was
an
industry
committee
that
helped
with
that
emerging
mobility
action
plan
in
addition
to
the
community
task
force.
So
I
think
that's
one
of
the
tactics
that
we
are
using
to
your
to
your
question.
Councilmember
davis,
chair
davis,
about
you
know:
how
are
we
making
sure
that
we're
trying
to
keep
up
and
even
look
ahead.
C
L
Yeah,
absolutely
so
so
one
that
first
graphic
I
started
out
with
right.
These
plans
are
kind
of
russian
dolls
right
there,
I'm
allowed
to
say
russian
right
now,
but
russian
dolls
in
terms
of
how
they
work
right
and
there's
feedback
loops
in
terms
of
what
what
goes
forward
where
and
so
I'll
say
it
both
from
the
top
right.
We
know
what
our
plans
are
and
we
know
where
our
goals
are.
As
I
should
say
that
we
know
where
our
goals
are.
L
L
Showing
up
are
they
helping
us
move
these
needles
or
not?
Is
something
we'll
have
a
sense
for
over
time
and
then
also
you
know,
emerging
mobility,
just
like
everything,
disruptive
is
disruptive
and
we
will
have
to
be
dynamic
and
when
they
can't
show
up,
I
mean
scooters
showed
up
out
of
nowhere.
Most
people
thought
they
were
gonna.
You
know
go
bankrupt
within
a
year
to
somehow
survive
through
the
pandemic.
L
L
Q
C
Okay,
thank
you
and
then
going
back
to
the
vmt
policy.
There
was
a.
There
was
a
little
bit
of
talk
about
overriding
consideration
as
long
as
it
fits
within
the
concept
context
of
a
general
plan,
but
we
do
have
a
general
plan
amendment
process,
so
I
don't
understand
how
that
fits
in
to
an
overriding
consideration
if
you're
basing
it
just
on
the
general
plan-
and
I
saw
michael
put
his
hand
up,
yeah
looks
like
michael
brewer
wants
to
answer
that
question.
Yeah.
R
So
the
proposal
now
is
that,
if
you're
proposing
housing
on
a
site
within
the
general
plan,
where
it's
allowed,
the
policy
would
support
going
forward.
If
you're
proposing
a
general
plan
amendment
for
housing
in
a
high
vmt
area,
then
you
know
we're
not
proposing
you
know
to
change
the
quality,
to
support
that
you
really
need
to.
You
really
need
to
stay
with
them.
You
know
we
we're
not
trying
to
change
the
general
plan.
R
That's
a
larger
issue,
essentially
so
we're
trying
our
goal
is
to
stay
tried
and
true
to
the
general
plan.
Focused
growth
in
areas.
The
general
plan
allows
them
where
they
are
high
vmt
areas
within
the
general
plan,
then
you
know
there
would
be
a
sql
process
to
mitigations
and
and
how
you
would
how
you
could
move
forward,
while
also
you
know,
reaching
our
climate
goals,
but
we're
not
advocating
or
supporting
changes
that
would
have
a
policy
that
would
have
support
development
in
high
vmt
areas.
R
L
So
I
think,
a
way
to
clarify
your
question
is
everything
else
has
a
way
forward.
The
only
thing
that
had
a
block
on
it
was
housing
outside
of
urban
villages
right
they
smaller
projects
could
go
forward.
Fine,
but
it's
these
larger
projects
in
those
areas,
and
so
that's
the
consideration
that
wasn't
possible
before
so.
We've
opened
that
consideration
right
and
then
there's
this
caveat
of
you
know
we
don't
want
to
see
people
come
in
and
say:
hey
we're.
G
L
C
R
I
do
not
say
that
yeah,
the
council
can
always
direct
staff
to
bring
something
to
city
council.
All
we're
saying
is
what
we're
proposing
is
that
the
vmt
policy
would
not
support
general
plan
amendments
in
inimitable
vmt
areas
that
are
not
growth,
areas
for
housing.
There
are
not
already
growth
areas
for
housing.
E
You
know
the
bmt
policy
today
and
but
maybe
it's
something
that
the
council
wanted
to
have
an
overrun
consideration
on
that
it
could
in
essence,
then
you
know,
get
a
gp
amendment
and
and
it
would
need
two
steps.
I
guess
right.
It
would
need
a
general
plan
amendment
and
then
it
could
could
come
to
the
council
on
the
vmt
policy
over
any
consideration.
E
But
what
I'm
hearing
is
that
that
actually
that
that
would
not
be
the
case
that
if
it,
if
a
project
applied
for
a
general
plan
amendment,
but
it
didn't
meet
the
vmt
policy
goals,
then
it
would
just
I
don't
know
I
guess
die
as
an
early
consideration
or
you
know
an
early
denial
whatever
it
is,
and
it
wouldn't
even
make
it
to
the
council.
Is
that
correct?
Am
I
understanding
that
correctly
then?.
R
R
That
being
said,
the
council
can
always
direct
us
to
conce,
continue,
processing
a
general
plan
amendment
and
bring
it
to
council,
and
they
could
ultimately
decide
to
do
and
override
it
with
the
policy
wouldn't
support
that,
but
it
doesn't
mean
the
council
couldn't
do
that.
So,
for
example,
there
there
is
likely
to
be
a
general
plan.
Amendment-
that's
you
know,
that's
been
applied
for
that.
We
will
bring
it
to
council
for
early
consideration,
because
it's
fundamentally
inconsistent
with
the
general
plan.
R
It's
not
supported
by
the
vmt
policy,
and
then
the
question
of
counsel
is
given
these
things.
Should
you
just?
We
would
recommend
you
deny
it
and
council
could
say.
Yes,
we
agree
with
you
steph
we're
denying
it
don't
process
this
anymore.
Applicants
stop
spending
your
money
or
they
could
say.
Well,
I
think
we'd
really
like
to
hear
this
one
and
direct
staff
to
continue
processing
and
bringing
it
back
at
the
next
general
pun
hearing
whenever
it's
ready,
so
that
that,
wouldn't
that
wouldn't
change,
that's
something
that
could
happen
now
and
would
continue.
E
Can
you
walk
me
through?
How
would
the
council
intervene
there?
Where
would
we
find
out
about
a
general
plan
amendment
like
this
and
then
have
an
opportunity
to
say,
hey
we'd
like
to
see
this
go
forward?
Would
that
be
like
a
whoever's
proposing
the
gp
amendment
would
need
to
come
to
the
council
and
say:
hey?
Can
you
help
this
because
it's
going
to
die.
R
But
you
know
in
the
near
future,
I'd
say
the
next
two
to
three
months:
we
bring
it
to
council.
First,
it
was
a
planning
commission.
We
bring
it
to
council
and
saying
hey.
We've
got
this
general
plan
amendment,
it's
fundamentally
consistent
with
the
gender
plan
and
it's
inconsistent.
The
vmt
policy
does
not
support
it.
R
Therefore,
we're
going
to
recommend
denial,
but
in
all
fairness
of
the
application,
the
applicant
we
were
bringing
it
to
council
early,
it
could
frankly
be
six
months
early
or
a
year
and
a
half
early
depending
on
when
they're
going
and
you
council
agree
with
our
our
analysis
and
recommendation
and
in
which
case
you
would
deny
it
so
the
process
would
stop
the
applicant,
isn't
spending
hundreds
of
you
know
thousands
of
dollars
in
an
eir
or
the
council
could
say.
Well,
you
know
we
really
stu
still
want
to
consider
this
continue
processing
it.
R
So
you
know
that
usually
happens.
So
you
know
the
applications
were
due.
Well,
the
it
depends
on
what
type
of
application
it
is,
but
but
the
the
the
the
the
secondary
deadline
is
in
march,
and
so
we
would
bring
something
in
in
may.
I
think
we'll
probably
have
something
this
year
frankly,
it'd
probably
be
more
likely
june
that
we
bring
it
to
council
to
say
hey.
We
want
to
get
your
read
on
this
one,
so
it
would
come
before
you
as
a
body
to
to
get
direction.
E
I
E
E
E
K
C
C
L
A
C
A
Thank
you
again,
and
this
is
a
joint
presentation
by
both
the
department
of
transportation
and
parks,
recreation,
neighborhood
services.
So
I'm
going
to
turn
this
over
to
brian.
We
also
have
liz
sewell
from
parks
and
brent
purse
from
vta
to
actually
talk
about
all
of
the
good
things
that
are
going
on
the
bike
in
the
trail
network
plan
so
ryan,
I
think
you're
up.
First.
M
Yes,
thank
you
so
good
afternoon
committee
members,
my
name
is
liz
sewell
and
I
am
the
trail
manager
for
the
city,
department
of
parks,
rec
and
neighborhood
services,
and
I'm
joined
today
by
the
department
of
transportation's,
active
transportation
program
manager,
ryan
smith
and
vta
transportation,
planner
brent
pierce,
and
we're
going
to
give
an
annual
update
of
the
city's
efforts
towards
building
out
its
on-street
fight
on
street
bikeways
and
trail
network.
So,
first
I'm
going
to
hand
it
over
to
ryan
to
provide
an
update
on
the
better
bike
plan.
N
Yeah
and
really
briefly
at
a
high
level
just
so
you
know
what
to
expect
in
our
presentation.
As
liz
mentioned,
we're
going
to
do
a
status
update
on
our
efforts
to
build
our
bike.
Planet
trail
network.
Give
some
key
project
updates
briefly
touch
on
funding
needs
and
strategies
for
trails
and
on
street
bikeways,
including
this
year's
application
for
transportation
development
act
funding
and
then,
as
mentioned
brent
from
bta,
will
share
a
project
update
really
quickly
for
some
background.
So
in
october,
2020
council
adopted
a
new
bike
plan.
N
Just
you
know.
Over
the
years
you
can
see,
we've
made
steady
progress
on
building
out
our
bike
plan,
and
currently
we
have
436
miles
of
on-street
bikeways
completed
completed.
If
you
combine
this
with
the
trails,
it's
almost
a
500
mile
network,
that's
currently
usable
for
people
riding
bikes
in
san
jose.
The
map
on
the
right
is
really
just
to
give
you
an
example
of
kind
of
the
extent
to
which
the
on-street
bikeways
network
covers
the
city.
N
Although
this
the
purple
lines
and
the
blue
lines
really
just
represent
bikeways
that
have
striping
and
signage
only,
and
we
know
that
people
really
want
to
see
something
of
a
higher
quality
if
we're
going
to
really
move
folks
onto
using
bikes.
So
the
the
green
cluster
in
the
center
is
representing
our
current
protected
bikeway
network.
That's
been
built
out
and
we
want
to
see
this
spread
across
the
city.
So
that's
kind
of
what
our
our
focus
is
going
to
be
on
as
we
build
our
bike
plan
and
kick
it
back
over
to
liz.
M
Thanks
ryan,
so
before
we
dig
into
the
trail
projects,
I
wanted
to
show
the
brand
new
version
of
the
city's
public
facing
trails
map,
so
this
was
put
together
by
our
gis
department
and
in
it
the
green
indicates.
The
existing
trails
and
orange
indicates
our
planned
trails
so
also
our
parks
department,
often
teams
with
d.o.t,
to
connect
the
trails
across
roads
and
bridges
and
to
connect
trails
to
bike
lanes.
So
I'll
give
some
specific
examples
later
on
in
the
presentation.
M
M
So
thanks
ryan,
here
are
the
types
of
trails
you
can
normally
find
in
the
city's
trail
network,
along
with
a
photo
of
the
coyote
creek
trail,
and
this
photo
was
taken
right
before
the
trail
opened
to
the
public
in
mid-october.
So
that's
why
it
looks
so
desolate.
A
few
recent.
A
few
more
recent
accomplishments
from
this
year
include,
in
addition
to
opening
this
two
miles
of
trail
along
coyote
creek.
N
N
Last
year
we
started
to
implement
a
pretty
dramatic
reconfiguration
of
10th
and
11th
streets,
downtown,
adding
a
frontage
lane,
which
is
shown
in
the
bottom
left
of
the
slide
to
10th
and
11th
streets,
where
cars
and
bikes
can
share
the
roadway
kind
of
separate
from
through
traffic
and
in
the
upper
left.
We
also
implemented
a
number
of
parking
protected
bikeways
on
this
corridor,
and
then
you
can
see
on
the
right.
N
Is
the
east
san
jose
and
movie
miento
multimodal
transportation
improvement
program
plan.
I
should
say,
and
we're
going
to
use
quick
strike
funding
to
build
out
some
of
that.
The
two
pictures
here
are
east
san
antonio
street
and
east
san
jose,
which
will
be
upgraded
as
part
of
the
quick
strike
project
next
slide.
M
M
But
each
phase
that
a
project
goes
through
helps
to
develop
the
cost
of
future
phases
for
things
like
discussion
with
council
and
approval
by
council
and
grant
writing.
So
that
said,
it
makes
it
a
bit
difficult
to
estimate
the
full
cost
of
build
out,
but
a
rough
estimate
for
these
remaining
segments
of
trail
that
you
saw
on
the
first
slide
that
I
showed
with
the
map,
will
be
approximately
400
million
and
that
estimates
a
per
mile
cost
of
about
4
million
and
then,
in
addition
to
that
bridges
and
underpasses
next
slide.
M
M
N
Okay,
great
thanks
liz.
So
now
I
want
to
move
into
how
we're
funding
build
out
of
our
bike
plan.
This
is
sort
of
separate
from
trails.
We
have
separate
funding
and
implementation
processes
and
timelines.
As
far
as
the
bike
plan
funding
goes,
I
want
to
draw
your
attention
to
the
table
on
the
right.
This
is
cost
estimates
for
the
full
build
out
of
the
bike
plan,
as
well
as
build
out
for
different
sections
of
the
bike
plan,
including
our
five
year
priority
projects.
N
The
upper
end
is
if
we
do
everything
with
permanent
materials-
and
you
know
practically
speaking,
this
will
be
some
kind
of
combination
of
the
two,
but
this
sort
of
sets
the
stage
for
what
we're
talking
about
we.
Currently
this
is
unfunded,
so
we
don't
have
a
dedicated
funding
source.
We
chase
grants
and
we
try
to
coordinate
with
other
planes
and
projects
to
leverage
resources.
N
So
part
of
our
funding
strategy
is
to
go
after
the
big
grants
coming
up
soon
is
the
active
transportation
program
from
the
state
obeg
from
the
federal
government,
and
then
we
also
use
our
payment
maintenance
program,
that's
kind
of
our
biggest
way
to
implement
our
bike
plan
and
that's
an
ongoing
thing
where
we
attach
bike
plan
implementation
to
our
paving
program.
We
also
do
some
other
things,
such
as
vision,
zero
projects,
regional
highway
projects,
for
example.
N
We
also
use
private
development,
so
downtown
west
is
a
great
example
of
getting
the
developer
to
help
us
build
out
our
bike
plan,
one
more
slide
on
funding,
so
the
one
guaranteed
source
we
get
every
year
is
a
state
grant
source
the
transportation
development
act.
Article
3
called
tda3
is
a
state
tax.
That's
allocated
to
cities
based
on
population
for
bike
and
pedestrian
improvements.
N
This
year
we're
getting
1.4
million,
that's
up
from
1.1
million
last
year,
which
is
great.
We
intend
to
apply
for
most
of
that
for
city-wide
bikeway
implementation,
just
basically
design
outreach
construction
of
various
segments
of
the
bike
plan.
We're
also
going
to
spend
some
of
that
on
pedestrian
safety
improvements.
Such
as
crosswalks
and
dedicate
some
of
that
funding
to
vision,
zero
safety,
programming
program
and
education,
so
this
is
going
to
come
to
council.
P
Hi,
everyone
happy
to
be
a
special
guest
here
today
to
present
to
you
all,
I'm
going
to
talk
to
you
a
little
bit
about
central
bikeway,
the
bay
area's
first
bike
superhighway
project.
We've
been
working
very
closely
with
city
of
san
jose
staff
and
in
your
communities
to
help
develop
the
concept
for
this
project
bike.
Superhighways
are
really
transformational,
they're
meant
to
be
high
quality
bikeways
that
help
people
travel
over
long
distances
safely,
directly
and
they're
meant
to
include
enhanced
amenities
to
move
bikes
quicker
throughout
our
cities.
P
Bike
superhighways
are
completely
separated
from
traffic
and
pedestrians,
so
they're
bike
focused
facilities.
Mainly
central
bikeway
is
consistent
with
the
facilities
identified
in
san
jose
spike
plan,
but
it
takes
that
plan.
It
builds
on
it
and
it
supercharges
it
along
the
identified
route
in
district
3
and
in
district
4..
P
It
also
is
meant
to
focus
on
heavily
disadvantaged
communities,
particularly
north
of
downtown
near
japan,
town
and
in
santa
clara.
It's
a
regional
project.
It
really
connects
to
the
amazing
trail
network
that
the
city
has
with
three
trail
corridors
interacting
with
it
connects
to
the
various
abarth
station
caltrain
and
frequent
vta
bus
and
rail
services.
P
We
just
finished
the
study
and
it's
a
conceptual
plan.
It
includes
a
10
level
of
design
and
this
type
of
study
and
project
really
helped
set
a
solid
foundation
for
continuing
our
collaboration
between
vta
and
the
city,
and
it
really
sets
up
this
quarter
for
future
funding
opportunities.
Like
ryan
spoke
about
earlier
excellent,
you
know
before
we
started
this
plan,
we
really
wanted
to
recognize
that
we
don't
always
have
all
the
developed
relationships
with
every
community
that
we
serve
and
we
definitely
don't
have
all
the
lived
experiences
that
many
people
in
our
communities
have.
P
We
really
wanted
a
project
that
really
represents
what
people
need
the
people
that
live
and
work
in
the
study
area.
So
we
wanted
to
do
something
different
with
this
project
and
we
elected
to
contract
and
pay
community-based
organizations
to
work
alongside
us
and
our
consultants
to
really
help
us
collaborate
with
the
community.
Much
like
city
has
done
on
other
projects
like
ramsay's
presented
on
for
move
san
jose.
P
47
of
people
have
told
us
of
all
those
that
participated,
that
they
would
use
a
facility
like
a
superhighway
to
go
to
work,
to
go
to
school
to
shop
along
the
route
and
30
of
those
that
participated
would
be
new
bicycle
users,
so
those
are
people
that
currently
don't
ride
now.
So
what
that
tells
us
is
a
facility
like
a
superhighway,
can
really
help
shift
people
up
and
make
them
think
differently
about
how
they
can
move
in
our
cities,
and
this
number
is
really
really
high
for
a
type
of
project
like
this.
P
Normally
we
see
that
at
about
less
than
five
percent,
so
we
really
believe
that
central
could
maybe
shift
the
needle
in
some
places
and
next
steps
for
the
project
we're
going
to
be
applying
for
a
grant
in
june
to
help
advance
the
project's
design
and
environmental
work
for
the
whole
10-mile
corridor.
And
we
look
forward
to
continue
working
with
you
all.
C
A
Great
yeah,
typical
who's
gonna
pay
for
all
this
stuff.
I
mean
it.
It
sounds
nice,
but
the
good
questions
I
have
for
panel
and
everybody
else
is,
you
know,
what's
who's
going
to
pay
for
this
super
highway,
it
sounds
nice
and
at
the
moment
a
lot
of
the
bike
lanes
are
terrible
for
both
drivers
and
cyclists.
They're,
not
very
good.
A
So
I
think
there
needs
to
be
more
done,
those
ballasts
or
whatever
they
call
the
bat
whatever
it
is.
Those
poles
with
plat,
blue
and
plastic
poles.
What
an
eyesore
I
mean
that
downtown's
already
ugly
enough,
and
they
put
that
in
there
they
got
these
bike
lanes,
overtaking
all
these
streets
downtown
it's
terrible,
but
once
again
cherry
avenue
was
done
quite
well
for
all
the
paint
on
there
on
the
on
the
asphalt
and
everything
is
intuitive.
B
Hi
claire
beak
me
here
thanks
for
this
item,
thanks
for
the
first
presenter
who
he
hasn't
presented
for
quite
a
while
and
it's
I
didn't
know
if
he
was
still
in
san
jose
working
on
these
sort
of
things,
it's
good
to
see
him
still
around.
I
guess
you
know
my
first
thing.
You
know
the
ideas
of
accountability
and
openness
with
policy
making
for
the
technology
for
these
practices.
B
It's
really
important
to
myself,
and
I
hope
we
all
want
to
make
really
important
efforts
that
you
know
these
are
the
ideas
of
our
sustainable
future
and
we
can't
sell
it
short.
We,
I
really
don't
think
we
can
do
that,
and
we
have
to
look
for
ways
to
do.
You
know
that
open
openness
and
accountability
can
be
really
a
part
of
a
sustainable
future,
just
as
much
as
a
bicycle
trails
and
community
safety
and
technology
itself.
K
O
Council
member,
this
is
jessica,
zanck,
deputy
director
for
the
department
of
transportation.
We
do
use
a
few
different
sources
to
measure
trends
and
usage
and
time.
Some
of
them
are
pretty
high
tech,
and
some
of
them
are
very
low
tech.
So
we
will
do
counts
at
individual
intersections
to
measure
the
differences
from
different
projects.
O
I
will
also
add
that,
as
everybody
knows,
the
last
few
years
have
been
absolutely
anomalous
in
terms
of
people's
travel
behavior
in
general
right
and
so
some
of
our
typical
data
collection
practices
have
not
been
deemed
worth
the
money
that
they
cost
to
do
during
the
pandemic
years,
and
so
we
have
continued
to
try
some
metrics
and
collected
data
for
individual
projects,
but
I
think
we're
all
looking
forward
to
getting
back
to
a
place
where
you
know
travel
it.
You
know,
as
we're.
O
O
I
think
yeah,
what
we
saw
in
general
was
that
travel
overall,
especially
early
in
the
pandemic,
was
down
and
travel
was
up
on
bikes,
but
not
higher
than
bike
travel.
When
people
were
going
places
right,
so
everybody
was
traveling
less,
but
the
percent
of
trips
by
bike
was
higher,
but
that
you
know
again
hard
to
measure
kind
of
across
the
board
or
make
generalities
about
it.
But
that
was
the
overall
trend
during
the
pandemic.
K
Would
be
interesting
if
we
kind
of
had
some
trends
with
time?
Maybe
if
we
take
out
these
two
years
and
maybe
next
year,
yeah
or
more
just
just
one
more
question
on
the
bike
highway
picture
on,
I
think
it
was
513
or
14..
I
know
that
there
was
some.
There
have
been
multiple
proposals
about
how
this
gets
through
district
four
and
the
original
design.
I
saw
had
it
going
through
down
oakland
road,
which
of
course,
is
difficult
because
of
the
open
road
880
interchange.
K
How
has
this
current
route
been
determined,
and
I
guess
another
part
of
the
question
is
that
part
of
it?
I
think
part
of
the
original
plan
was
to
use
the
guadalupe
river
trail
as
part
of
that
highway,
and
it
doesn't
look
like
it
still
is.
So
can
you
just
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
the
route
and
how
it's
been
determined
and
what
the
stages
where
we
are
in
terms
of
planning
and
finalization
of
the
route.
P
Yeah,
so
the
purpose
of
you
know
where
we're
at
with
the
study
right
now
is
to
do
what
we
call
an
alternatives.
Analysis,
so
that
looks
at
different
routes,
different
corridors,
many
of
the
ones
that
you
just
mentioned,
and
the
outcome
of
that.
In
our
final
study
report,
which
we
now
have
on
our
website
and
I
can
make
sure
links
get
out
to
your
office.
P
Actually,
I
did
send
links
to
your
office
last
week
now
that
I'm
remembering,
but
I'll,
make
sure
that
it
gets
to
your
staff
again
is
to
show
how
we
got
to
the
final
report
right,
so
how
we
ranked
those
alternatives
based
on
our
feedback
and
the
criteria
that
we
set
forth
and
you're
correct
one
of
the
earlier
alternatives.
We
were
considering
various
erode,
but
we
elected
to
shift
the
alignment
down
10th
and
11th
and
use
taylor
based
on.
K
P
A
Hear
you
now
yeah
great,
thank
you,
I'm
pushing
different
buttons,
hey.
I
actually
just
wanted
to
think.
I
know
we're
going
to
talk
about
it
on
nsc,
but
I
wanted
to
thank
public
works
thanks
park
and
rec
thank
d.o.t
thank
valley,
water
and
the
conservation
corps
and
the
sjpd
for
all
working
together
on
the
coyote
creek
safety
plan,
including
the
bike
patrol,
and
I
think
that's
something
that
I
think
we
need
to
acknowledge
is
that
people
will
use
our
our
trails
they'll
bike
them.
If
it's
clean
and
safe
right
and.
D
C
E
F
C
C
Q
Q
Q
S
S
We
will
then
quickly
move
into
giving
you
a
status
of
our
existing
programs
and
then
talk
about
our
recommendations
for
near-term
programs
as
well
as
future
programs
and
then
conclude
with
what
are
the
next
steps
for
the
community
and
for
this
milestone
at
next
world
style
roadmap.
Milestones.
Excuse
me
next,
please.
S
Laurie
mentioned
that
we
are
seeking
to
be
able
to
reach
180
days
of
operating
expenses
and
that
resiliency
will
then
provide
that
cushion
against
the
volatility
that
we
see
in
the
power
markets
and
pci
uncertainty
that
was
very
well
pronounced
in
2021,
but
we're
looking
to
much
favorable
conditions
in
2022,
and
so
we
are
on
track
to
be
able
to
get
to
180
days,
hopefully
within
the
first
five
years
of
operation,
and
that
would
be
between
the
years
24
and
25.
If,
if
not
sooner
next,
please.
S
It's
very
important
that
as
a
department
within
the
city
that
we
are
completely
aligned
with
climate,
smart
and
so
with
this
frame,
this
slide
shows
you
exactly
which
pillars
we
are
aligned
with
and
the
dotted
lines
around.
Some
of
the
squares
on
the
bottom
show
specifically
where
our
program
roadmap
does
align
with
climate
smart,
and
this
is
even
more
important
as
we
strive
towards
reaching
the
ambitious
goal
of
you
know
the
bold
goal
of
getting
to
carbon
neutral
by
2030..
S
And
so
the
program
roadmap
focuses
on
six
program
areas,
and
these
program
areas
are
what
you
listed
there
in
electrification
efficiency
rates
resiliency
and
distributed
energy
resources.
These
are
the
program
areas
that
we
focus
on.
It's
also
the
program
areas
that
we
see
several
other
community
choice
aggregators
in
the
bay
area
focus
on
as
well
as
other
utilities
and
within
these
program
areas.
We
then
have
specific
selection
criteria
go
to
the
next
slide.
Please.
S
They
include
greenhouse
gas
reduction
opportunities,
how
it
aligns
with
climate
smart
and
whether
or
not
it's
promoting
equity
and
affordability
and
disadvantaged
communities,
as
well
as
producing
additional
community
benefits
and
improving
the
financial
stability
of
san
jose,
clean
energy.
And
so
we
use
these
focus
areas
as
well
as
principles
to
develop
a
short
ter.
A
short
short-term
list
of
recommendations
for
for
us
to
implement
first,
and
so.
S
R
Great
sorry
about
that,
so
thank
you
joe.
So,
first
we'll
start
with
our
existing
programs
and,
as
you
can
see,
we
have
four
programs
each
in
different
four
different
program
areas.
Two
of
these.
On
the
left
hand,
side
are
cpuc-funded
programs
and
we
have
one
as
well
in
the
vehicle
electrification
program
area
that
is
funded
by
the
cec
and
san
jose,
clean
energy
and
then,
lastly,
we
have
our
program
specific
rate,
sjcares
next
slide.
Please.
R
So
for
our
energy
efficiency
program,
this
is
one
of
the
cpuc-funded
programs.
We're
really
excited
to
announce
that
last
month
we
executed
the
agreement
with
the
program,
implementer
franklin
energy.
So
now,
officially
the
program
planning
and
development
and
activities
are
underway
and
we
are
aiming
to
launch
the
program,
the
programs
in
may.
R
So
for
the
commercial
program
side
of
things,
we
have
4.3
million
from
the
cpuc
funding,
and
this
will
provide
small
and
medium
businesses
and
schools,
with
technical
assistance
and
discounts
for
heating
ventilation
and
air
conditioning
upgrades
and
equipment
and
we're
targeting
over
the
three
years
of
the
program
we're
targeting
300
businesses,
projects
and
nine
schools
and
then
on
the
single-family
residential
side
of
things.
We
have
about
750
000
in
cpuc
funding,
combined
with
500
000
from
the
american
rescue
plan
funds
for
a
total
of
1.25
million.
R
R
Our
next
program
is
the
other
cpuc
funded
program.
So
this
is
the
disadvantaged
community
green
tariff
program.
We've
branded
it
as
salt,
the
solar
access
program,
so
this
provides
low-income
customers
in
disadvantaged
communities
in
san
jose,
a
20
build
discount
on
100,
renewable
energy
and
there's
no
solar
installation
or
any
type
of
installation
needed
for
this.
So
this
is
a
great
opportunity
for
renters
and
folks
who
otherwise
would
not
have
access
to
solar.
R
So
all
in
all,
we
had
more
than
700
applicants
and
we're
really
excited
we're
really
pleased
to
that.
Over
40
percent
of
those
applicants
spoke
either
vietnamese
or
spanish,
and
currently
there
are
more
than
600
residents
enrolled
and
we're
still
working
with
those
cbos
to
fill
the
last
to
about
200
spots
in
the
program.
R
Next
slide,
please,
in
the
way
of
vehicle
electrification,
we
have
the
california
electric
vehicle
infrastructure
project,
otherwise
known
as
cal
evip.
So
this
is
funded
by
the
california,
energy
commission
and
san
jose,
clean
energy
and
it's
implemented
by
the
center
for
sustainable
energy
and
that's
implemented
statewide
by
that
organization.
R
R
So
throughout
2022,
these
projects
are
going
to
start
receiving
their
incentives.
There's
there's
two
payments
and
then
we
expect,
throughout
this
year
and
next
year,
for
the
projects
to
complete
next
slide.
Please,
and
so
last,
but
certainly,
not
least,
is
our
sj
cares
discount
program.
So
this
was
established
by
council
in
may
of
2021,
and
this
provides
san
jose
clean
energy
care,
fair
customers
with
an
additional
five
percent
discount.
R
So
that
means
that
they
receive
a
higher
renewable
energy,
a
higher
renewable
percentage
of
their
energy
than
pg
e
and
at
the
lowest
rates
in
san
jose,
so
that
that's
a
those
are
updates
on
our
existing
programs.
That
kind
of
came
out
of
that
program's
roadmap
and
I'll
hand
it
back
to
joe
to
go
over
some
of
the
near-term
program
recommendations.
S
S
S
We
also
heard
from
outside
consultants
that
there
are
so
much
there's
so
many
programs
in
existence
already
and
there's
quite
a
process
to
being
able
to
do
building
electrification
such
as
going
through
permits
and
so
forth
that
if
we
were
able
to
establish
a
clearinghouse
of
electrification
resources
that
would
greatly
assist
the
public
and
to
be
able
to
go
through
that
process
of
being
able
to
implement
billing
electrification.
Today.
S
The
next
is
we're
looking
at
program
specific
grades.
You
know
this
is
an
idea
that
was
shared
with
us,
where
we're
coining
it
calling
community
total
green,
and
this
is
where
voluntarily
customers
may
contribute
an
additional
amount
to
on
top
of
what
they
pay
for
their
services
on
their
electric
bill
in
order
to
sponsor
100
percent
renewable
energy
for
those
customers
that
are
currently
on
the
sj
cares
program,
and
so
we'd
have
to
be
able
to
flush
this
out
and
provide
the
details.
But
we
believe
that
this
has
this.
S
We
would
like
to
be
able
to
look
into
a
model
and
develop
a
pilot
in
which
we
would
use
city
owned
parking
assets
and
san
jose
and
clean
energy
would
look
to
be
able
to
develop
the
capital
needed
to
be
able
to
install
fast
charging
at
those
locations,
especially
those
locations
that
are
not
being
served
by
commercially
available
charging
stations.
And
these
can
focus
on
disadvantaged
communities.
S
Those
areas
near
multi-family
housing,
for
example,
that
they
have
greater
barriers
to
being
able
to
adopt
electric
vehicles
and
so
forth,
as
well
as
other
commuters
that
are
traveling
through
the
region,
such
as
those
on
major
highways
and
thoroughfares,
as
well
as
local
businesses.
Who
may
you
know,
want
to
be
able
to
have
charging
available
for
their
customers
as
well
as
their
employees.
S
S
We're
also
looking
at
being
able
to
look
at
solar
and
storage
for
other
critical
facilities
facilities
here
within
the
city.
These
could
be
city
operated
facilities
as
well
as
other,
perhaps,
facilities
operated
by
nonprofit
organizations
that
are
critical,
for
you
know
the
the
community
and
we're
also
looking
at
demand
response
programs.
These
are
programs
where
customers
can
voluntarily
be
able
to
shift
the
way
that
they're
using
electricity
in
order
to
benefit
the
grid.
S
There
will
probably
be
in
the
neighborhood
of
about
150
000,
residential
customers
that
will
be
automatically
enrolled
in
the
program
and
even
though
they're
automatically
enrolled,
they
will
not
be
required
to
participate,
and
other
customers
will
also
be
have
the
ability
to
participate
in
this
program.
But
it
offers
a
unique
opportunity
for
us
to
be
able
to
see
how
customers
are
responding
to
the
call
to
be
able
to
save
energy
during
those
critical
critical
points.
S
But
we
also
want
to
look
at
how
we
can
develop
demand
response
programs
based
on
our
particular
needs
within
our
community.
As
well
as
the
energy
usage
patterns
that
we
see
within
our
city,
so
that's
what
we're
looking
at
in
terms
of
near-term
program
recommendations,
I'm
going
to
move
to
future
programs.
So
these
would
be
programs
that
we
would
consider
more
like
perhaps
five
years
out.
However,
since
we
come
to
the
committee
every
year,
of
course,
there's
flexibility
to
be
able
to
adapt
to
the
changing
environment
and
conditions.
S
Buildings
to
be
able
to
provide
electrification
is
multi-family
low
income
electrification
support.
So
we
want
to
be
able
to
work
collaboratively
again
with
our
climate,
smart
partners,
as
well
as
the
other
city
departments,
to
be
able
to
try
to
tackle
being
able
to
electrify
these
these
housing
units
moving
over
to
passenger
vehicle
electrification.
S
We
all
we
would
like
to
be
able
to
provide
a
clearinghouse
or
information
about
how
to
be
able
to
purchase
and
all
the
rebates
that
are
available
for
for
purchasing
those
either
a
new
or
used
vehicle
and
be
able
to
provide
that
clearinghouse
so
that
it
makes
it
much
easier
for
that.
For
that
adoption
to
happen,
and
then
again,
we
want
to
be
able
to
support
low-income
electric
mobility,
whether
that's
electric
bicycles,
electrifying,
our
public
transportation
fleets,
as
well
as
electric
vehicles
themselves
and
then
finally,
moving
on
to
resiliency
and
distributed
energy
resources.
S
We
think
that
in
the
future,
there's
going
to
be
a
more
available
availability
of
energy
storage
that
can
be
used
by
both
commercial
and
residentials,
along
with
adding
solar
and
other
renewable
energy
resources
and
being
able
to
use
those
at
the
most
strategic
times.
That
adds
the
best
most
benefit
to
both
the
customer,
as
well
as
managing
reliability.
C
Yes,
I'm
I'm
sorry
we're
we're
running
really
short
on
time
and
we
have
another
item.
I'm
I'm.
I
know
you're
getting
close
to
the
end,
but
can
I
just
refer
my
colleagues
to
if
you
want
to
just
show
the
slide
for
next
steps
and
then
we'll
go
to
the
public
for
for
their
comments.
So
thank
you.
We've
got
a
next
an
update
in
2023.
C
A
A
You
know,
look
no
further
than
germany
and
see
what
happens
when
you
try
to
go
carbon,
free
and
green,
and
all
that
it
sounds
good.
It's
great
for
offsetting.
I
I
agree,
but
take
a
look
at
germany
right
now
and
see
what
they're
going
through
and
that'll
be
san
jose
in
the
next.
I
don't
know
three
to
five
years
and
it'll,
be
a
disaster
and
it'll
be
super
expensive
and
you're.
Gonna,
probably
freeze
to
death,
so
at
least
in
the
wintertime.
Not
so
much
in
california,
be
too
hot.
A
B
Good
luck
that
lori
mitchell
can
hopefully
talk
with
martha
o'connell,
who
she's
concerned
about
the
future
of
all
rectification
of
buildings
from
mobile
homes,
and
I
think
blair,
that's
off
topic.
Okay,
you
can
have
a
good
conversation
on
that
subject
matter.
To
conclude,
you
know
I
I've
been
very
worried.
You
know
for
the
past
few
years
that
2023
was
going
to
be
an
important
pivotal
year,
for
some
reason
is
it
because
of
putin?
B
K
K
K
K
C
J
A
I
C
C
D
So
just
a
a
little
background.
We
all
know
climate
smart
was
adopted
in
2018.
We
have
our
carbon
neutral
goal,
which
was
adopted
for
2021
or
20
21.
Sorry,
so
we
have
been
working
with
climate
smart
through
the
american
cities,
climate
challenge
since
2019
that
work
is
going
to
be
that
assistance
is
going
to
be
concluding
in
june
of
this
year
and
we're
already
ramping
down
on
that.
As
unfortunately,
we
lost
one
of
our
our
climate
advisor
this
past
week
to
another
position.
D
We
know
a
lot
more
money
is
coming
down
the
road
and
we
are
preparing
for
that
already
looking
out
for
it
and
you
know
doing
some
pre
pre-work
in
order
to
to
be
ready
and
our
efforts
are
being
recognized
on
a
continual
basis.
So
this
year
we
again
have
been
recognized
by
the
cdp,
which
was
the
carbon
disclosure
project
previously
and
then
also,
I
see
triple
e
ranking
very
high
on
their
list
for
our
climate
efforts.
D
So
just
in
terms
of
our
community
engagement,
a
couple
of
highlights,
we
have
a
new
program
called
go
green
teams,
which
is
a
pilot
where
we
have
40
team
leaders
in
order
to
allow
them
to
host
nine
meetings
in
which
includes
five
to
ten
households.
Those
meetings
cover
topics
like
food
and
waste,
home
energy,
transportation,
water,
climate
resilience
and
disaster
preparedness,
so
across
many
departments
in
the
city
and
also
so
provide
some
resources
on
those,
as
well
as
to
track
progress
through
our
climate.
D
Q
Q
It's
also
95
carbon
free
and,
at
the
end
of
last
year,
really
excited
that
two
of
our
long-term
renewable
contracts
actually
completed
construction
and
came
online
and
that's
a
large
wind
farm
in
new
mexico
developed
by
pattern,
energy
and
then
a
large
solar
and
storage
project
here
in
california
I'll
skip
over
the
ee
programs,
because
you
just
heard
about
that
and
then,
of
course,
very
proud
of
that
solar
access
program
for
our
disadvantaged
communities
and
still
looking
for
about
200
additional
residents
to
enroll
in
that
where
they
get
20
bill.
Discount
and
100
renewable
energy.
D
We
also
had
passed
the
natural
gas
infrastructure,
prohibition
ordinance
after
the
adoption
of
the
building
reach
code,
and
so
we'll
just
be
aligning
that
we're
planning
to
bring
that
later
on
this
year,
we'll
also
be
just
looking
at
how
the
california
building
code
and
how
other
groups
and
counties
in
the
area
are
looking
at
the
ev
requirements
and
see
whether
there's
anything
that
might
be
needed
around
that
portion
and
then
our
existing
building
electrification
plan,
which
is
a
framework
to
encourage
electrification
of
homes
and
businesses.
We've
released
our
draft
in
february
2022.
D
D
A
Well,
with
the
speed
up
of
the
meeting,
I
didn't
understand
one
thing
at
all
like
it.
This
was
a
waste
of
time
because
I,
it
wasn't
well
explained
at
all
didn't
make
sense
of
anything
like
a
lot
of
things
down
at
city
hall,
but
yeah
maybe
give
your
people
more
time.
I
don't
know
what
you
know.
You
guys
are
public
servants
and
you,
you
know
you
cut
time
for
callers.
A
You
cut
time
for
the
people
presenting
you
know
you
work
for
the
public,
you
don't
work
for
yourselves
and
it's
it's
a
bit
rude
to
speed.
Everybody
up.
You
got
you
know,
and
you
should
maybe
have
these
throughout
the
week
versus
trying
to
cramming
things
in
on
monday
and
tuesday
for
hours
on
end.
You
should
be
ashamed
of
yourselves.
A
B
B
To
hear-
and
just
thank
you
working
for
a
full
community
process
is
important,
but
the
fact
that
we
are
now
including
low
income
in
these
sort
of
conversations
about
the
future
sustainable
energy,
renewable
energy
is
awesome
to
hear,
keep
up
the
good
work
in
that
area,
and
I
don't
want
to
put
lori
mitchell
on
the
spot
at
all.
But
you
know
for
over
the
past
few
years
she
would
very
often
talk
about
the
importance
of
what
2023
meant
to
our
future
in
the
of
community
energy.
B
E
P
C
P
A
H
Sorry
about
that
I've
been
trying
very
hard
to
follow
the
mtc's
new
plan
in
vision,
2050
and
I've.
Read
that
whole
thing
well,
almost
that's
not
fair
to
say
and
they've
got
new
graphics
and
they've
got
a
new
equity
plan
and
this
and
that
the
other,
and
so
today,
after
today's
meeting
and
hearing
us
discuss
how
we're
basically
going
to
kind
of
scrap
our
own
general
plan.
H
They
didn't
work,
we
got
rid
of
community
commercial
spaces
under
affordable
housing
in
urban
villages.
We
agreed
signature
project
could
go
ahead
of
urban
village
plans.
Urban
village
plans
can
go
without
having
an
actual
plan
hired
by
a
consultant,
etc,
etc.
Our
plan
has
not
worked
in
short,
mtc
has
is
infusing
kind
of
a
new
plan
and
today
was
a
good
example
of
why
it's
very
hard
to
trust.
You
know
our
government,
because
this
continues
to
change
and
change
and
change
and
change,
and
so
we're
kind
of
whiplash.
What
is
going
on
thanks.
B
Q
B
We're
trying
to
learn
a
concept
of
ideas
of
peace
and
not
war
and
china.
You
know
the
u.s
had
911
china
has
probably
issued
russia
has
had
you
know
what
they're
going
through
right
now,
and
what
we're
doing
right
now
in
san
jose
is
just
steadily
building
a
future
of
peace,
sustainability,
open
democracy,
good
practices.
B
Basically,
I
mean
we're
asking
it's
time
we
stop
for,
and
the
work
that
I
do
with
openness
and
accountability
is
directly
meant
to
address
the
ideas
of
peace
and
open
democracy
that
can
end
the
ideas
of
war
as
how
to
solve
our
issues.
So
good
luck
in
what
we're
doing
right
now,
we're
doing
something
important.
I
think
we
can
build
something
really
great
for
our
future.
Thank
you.
A
There
was
a
meet
town
hall
meeting
that
was
a
complete
joke
about
it,
and
now
what
do
we
have?
You
guys
lobbied
the
state
of
california
for
speed
cameras
and
there
was
a-
and
there
was
a
just
barf
city
kind
of
editorial-
that
dev
davis
wrote
in
the
paper
this
weekend.
That
just
made
me
want
to
puke
about
having
to
have
50
officers
for
traffic
enforcement.
A
That's
what
you
guys
come
up
with
where'd
you
find
out
we're
going
to
find
all
the
money
for
that
when
we've
had
bad
crime
overnight
for
decades
in
the
southern
division
and
presto,
you
guys
got
zero
vision.
You've
got
enough
money
for
speed
cameras
and
more
more
traffic,
cops
that
are
gonna
work.
Eight
to
four.
You
know:
how
do
you.
