A
B
Got
it
I
had
the
wrong
date
on
one
of
my
one
of
my
agendas
was
the
wrong
date,
so
we
don't
have
any
items
on
the
review
of
work
plan
for
the
item
c,
the
consent
calendar,
the
airport,
commission
and
annual
work
plan.
I
see
there
are
three
hands
up
so
we'll
go
to
public
comment.
First,
unless
any
council
members
have
questions
before
we
go
to
public
comment,.
B
C
It's
a
terrible
airport,
dirty
they're,
definitely
keeping
us
not
keeping
up
to
covet
standards.
Tsa
there
is
terrible
san
jose.
Pd
has
to
sit
there
and
watch
the
tsa.
That's
something
just
behold
so
yeah
you
guys
should
do
some
of
that
airport
for
a
massive
city
with
a
lot
of
air
traffic
covered
or
no
kobe,
and
it's
just
it's
embarrassing.
I
mean,
like
I
mean
when
people
come
visit,
this
city,
they
must
go.
Oh,
my
god!
This
is
silicon
valley.
C
C
C
I
guess
you
do
something
spruce
that
place
up.
It's
boring
it's
ugly
inside,
not
inviting
at
all.
You
guys
should
be
ashamed
of
yourselves.
The
way
you
run
that
airport-
it's
just
it's
when
I
know
I
have
to
go
there,
I
you
know
I
cringe,
you
know,
I'm
like
I
guess
I
could
go
to
oakland
or
san
francisco
drive
that
far.
I
should
have
a
decent
airport
to
use
in
this
city
of
the
silicon
valley.
All
this
money
is
all
these
smart
people
and
technology
and
everything
it's
a
joke.
D
Good
afternoon,
council,
paul
soto
from
the
horseshoe
my
concern
is,
is:
is
this
being
a
consent
calendar
item?
I
think
this
scope.
When
you
read
the
memo,
we're
talking,
drive
growth,
innovate
fund,
the
future
invest
in
the
organization.
This
is
the
work
plan
that
that
I
think
we
need
to
like
talk
about
that.
You
know
that
these
are
we
wanted
to
connect
to
serve
inspire.
You
know
all
these
flowery
words:
how
to
transform
to
transform
how
silicon
valley
travels.
This
is
in
silicon
valley.
This
is
san
jose
airport.
D
You
see
so
there's
there's
a
disconnect
there
in
terms
of
the
psychology
and
the
way
that
these
memos
are
being
written.
Okay,
there
are
benefactors
who
are
going
to
benefit
because
they're
telling
them
to
market.
Like
this,
I
read
these
documents
constantly
and
there
is
a
centering
of
silicon
valley,
silicon
valley,
silicon
valley.
Sometimes
it's
it's
sickening
because
what
we're
talking
about
is
the
san
jose
airport.
D
That
is
the
topic.
Okay.
So,
like
I
respect
what
you
were
saying,
council,
member
davis,
with
respect
to
staying
on
topic,
silicon
valley
doesn't
even
exist.
You
can
look
at
any
map
on
the
in
the
world.
You
go
go
to
any
search
engine.
Silicon
valley
does
not
exist,
it's
an
idea,
and
and-
and
so
these
so
for
silicon
valley-
the
words
to
be
inserted
in
a
document
in
the
city
that
I
come
from,
okay
that
I
have
to
fight
I'm
fighting
for
survival.
D
While
these
people
just
get
to
come
in,
throw
their
billions
of
dollars
around
and
shoot.
What
do
you
want
to
call
it
blood
oops?
We
got
it
there,
it
is
there
buddy.
Silicon
valley
is
so
I
take
great
offense
to
that
man.
People
are
dying
in
the
city
and
they're
going
to
continue
to
die
lee
wilcox.
He
said
it
beautifully.
The
city
has
not
responded
to
that
report
that
he
gave
that
report
that
he
gave.
D
E
Go
ahead,
thank
you.
I
can't
speak
if
people
don't
amuse
me
so
quickly,
I'm
adam.
So,
first
of
all,
I
really
appreciate
the
close
captioning.
Thank
you.
Moving
on
to
the
airport,
every
modern,
not
even
international
airport,
has
got
high-speed
rail
connection
directly
at
the
airport.
I
believe
I
showed
a
youtube
video
to
the
tne
about
last
year
or
maybe
18
months
ago.
E
How
we
could
you
exactly
do
that
it
really
is
not
a
rocket
science
and
by
the
way,
this
is
exactly
what
burbank
are
doing
right
now
as
part
of
the
high
speed
rail
project,
they're
relocating
the
station
to
the
the
west
side
of
the
airport,
there'll
be
a
high-speed
rail
station
right
there,
where
the
airport
is,
but
they're,
obviously
obviously
moving
the
terminal
at
the
same
time,
and
we've
got
the
same
opportunity
san
jose
now
in
wrapping
up.
I
would
like
to
touch
very
briefly
on
the
airport
connector.
E
If
you
did,
I
hope
that
you
will
have
noticed
that
there
are
no
cross
passages
between
the
tunnels
to
provide
safe
evacuation
in
the
case
of
a
tunnel
fire,
and
this
is
why
this
tunnel
was
so
inexpensive
and
I
hope
people
will
be
really
careful
moving
forward
and
paying
attention
to
this
kind
of
life-saving
details.
Thank
you.
F
I
hope
you
have
to
go
on
with
my
speech.
I
hope
the
way,
overly
ambitious,
high
high-rise
fantasies
of
downtown
san
jose
a
few
years
ago
are
turning
more
into
something
of
the
good
good-minded
practicalities
of
the
airport
commission
ideas
for
this
area.
It
is
from
this
place.
We
can
then
better
consider
and
debate
the
future
of
development
all
around
the
airport
and
the
park
avenue
area
and
from
this
place,
how
to
better
connect
you,
the
ideas
and
words
of
paul
soto
for
this
area
as
well.
F
I
still
feel
from
this.
We
can
close
the
hillview
airport
in
the
next
year
and
to
let
the
airport
begin
to
sit
for
the
next
10
years
to
clear,
clean
it
of
its
toxins
and
from
this
the
closest
airport
can
be
given
good
runway
maintenance
and
security
over
the
next
10
years
in
case
of
any
upcoming
barrier,
natural
disasters
and
needs
to
also
note
that
palo,
alto
and
san
martin
airports
are
20
miles
away
from
the
richovia
airport.
F
The
hollister
airport
is
40
miles
away
and
a
higher
rate
of
emergency
plane
landing
capability
compared
to
reed
hill
hillview.
I
thank
you
very
much
for
the
switch
to
unleaded
fuel,
but
it
may
simply
be
too
little
too
late
with
the
long-term
health
issues
of
this
area.
I
hope
it
can
be
clear.
This
can
be
clear
pictures
for
all
of
us
to
more
openly
address
how
to
close
retail.
It
will
be
sooner
while,
at
the
same
time,
we
can
be
developing
open,
clear
barrier
disaster
preparedness
plans
for
the
area
as
well.
Thank
you.

G
G
The
second
is
a
general
legislative
update,
particularly
focused
on
state
and
federal
funding
opportunities
and
a
quick
update
about
the
high-speed
rail
project
in
terms
of
its
process,
moving
forward
so
to
jump
right
in
the
warm
springs
quiet
zone.
The
warm
springs
line
is
a
union
pacific
corridor
that
runs
through
the
heart
of
san
jose.
G
G
This
particular
corridor
has
been
a
union
pacific
line
for
quite
many
many
decades,
but
in
early
2019
spring
of
2019
union
pacific
changed
some
of
its
services
and
began
operating
trains
in
many
night
times
and
so
shown
a
spotlight
on.
Basically,
how
this
line
would
disrupt
people's
sleep,
8
p.m.
2
a.m.
3
a.m,
with
services
that
hadn't
previously
been
active
during
the
night
very
much
in
this
corridor.
G
So
with
that,
the
city
began
to
look
at
a
quiet
zone
and
in
particular
you
know.
First,
what
is
a
quiet
zone
and
why
a
quiet
zone
here
so
a
quiet
zone
is
something
defined
by
the
federal
railroad
administration
as
an
area
in
which
it
is
safe
and
effective
for
trains
to
pass
through
without
using
their
horns.
G
We
saw
that
it
was
particularly
applicable
for
a
quiet
zone
because
the
trains
go
through
this
area
at
very
low
speeds.
There
are
also
low
train
volumes
relatively
low
traffic
volumes
along
the
streets
that
it
transgresses,
and
only
one
active
train
track
through
this.
So
there
aren't
trains
kind
of
moving
in
in
both
directions.
At
the
same
time
and
finally,
this
corridor,
the
warm
springs
line,
meets
almost
all
of
the
applicable
federal
requirements
and
pre-existing
qualifications
for
a
quiet
zone
specifically
and
we'll
go
into
this
more
on
the
following
page.
G
It
has
a
risk
index
which
is
lower
than
the
nationwide
significant
risk
threshold,
so
it
does
fall
below
that
that
risk
threshold
and
it
has
one
location-
and
that
is
seventh
in
jackson,
where
it
requires
a
modification
to
be
up
to
fake
federal
regulatory
standards.
So
these
two
things
have
to
both
be
the
case,
the
risk
index
be
below
and
it
have
it
being
up
to
federal
regulations
in
order
for
a
city
like
san
jose
to
proceed
with
a
quiet
zone
without
going
through
an
extensive
approvals
process.
G
So
to
go
in
a
little
bit
more
in
depth,
we
do
have
other
federally
regulated
train
corridors
within
san
jose,
specifically,
here's
the
warm
springs
corridor
that
we've
been
talking
about.
Of
course,
numerous
trains
travel
through
the
monterey
corridor
area
crossing
at
skyway,
branham
and
chenoweth,
and
we
also,
as
most
of
you,
are
well
aware.
Certainly
in
district
six,
we
have
many
many
trains
that
use
the
ozarae
and
virginia
crossings
just
south
of
deardon
station.
G
G
G
G
The
final
corridor,
the
versona
light
rail
corridor,
does
have
an
existing
quiet
zone
that
was
set
up
through
that
extensive
regulatory
process.
We're
also
working
very
closely
with
vta
and
the
california
public
utilities,
commission
and
fra
federal
railroad
administration's
alphabet
soup
to
make
a
number
of
safety
improvements
and
upgrades
along
that
corridor
as
well.
To
maintain
that
quiet
zone.
G
Going
back
to
the
warm
springs
quiet
zone
specifically
since
that
change
in
union
pacific
practices
in
spring
of
2019,
we
have
been
working
with
union,
pacific
and
other
stakeholders
to
evaluate
this
quiet
zone.
In
particular,
we
had
a
quiet
zone
study
done
by
consultants
who
are
expert
within
this
field.
G
So
we
are
here
where
we
have
worked
through
successfully
with
union
pacific,
that
interim
design
component
that
we
will
look
to
be
installing,
hopefully
over.
This
fall
we're
working
with
union
pacific
to
get
their
signature
on
our
regulatory
forms
and
also
we'll
be
bringing
to
you
certain
agreements
with
union
pacific
to
match
their
money
with
ours,
to
smooth
some
of
the
grade
crossings
that
are
currently
not
modernized
or
retrofit
for
safe
pedestrian
crossing
and
then
we'll
layer.
On
top
of
that
at
7th
and
jackson.
G
The
interim
controls
that
will
allow
it
to
move
forward
the
other
important
success
that
we
had
over
this
past
summer.
That
we
wanted
to
make
you
aware
of
is
that
through
a
small
portion
of
the
state
budget,
we
were
awarded
8
million
for
warm
springs,
quiet
zone
upgrades
for
the
permanent,
build
out
new
signaling
new
curves
new
gutters.
The
whole
thing
along
some
of
these
key
locations,
including
a
permanent,
build
out
at
7th
and
jackson
from
there.
There
is
a
process
of
establishing
the
quiet
zone.
G
G
We've
all
heard-
and
I
know
a
couple
weeks
ago
at
city
council,
heard
extensively
about
the
opportunities
for
federal
support
moving
through
this,
this
senate
and
house.
On
the
federal
side.
We
wanted
to
make
sure
that
the
transportation
and
environment
committee
was
aware
of
two
specific
project
approvals
that
are
in
to
the
federal
government
for
support.
G
Also
this
past
summer,
the
city
took
the
lead
with
our
other
partners
on
the
deer
down
station
to
apply
for
3.5
million
dollars
in
what
is
now
called
the
raise
planning
funding
and
that
application
was
for
an
implementation
plan
for
our
duradon
station
work
that
we've
brought
to
you
many
times
the
raise
grant
used
to
be
known
as
build
grants
and
before
that
it
was
tiger
grants.
So
this
is
a
funding
source
with
a
changing
name
but
continuity
within
the
federal
government.
G
The
house
has
not
yet
taken
up
that
legislation,
but
it
does
set
forth
a
number
of
new,
both
formula
and
competitive
funding
programs
at
the
federal
level.
The
formula
funding
programs,
most
of
those
monies
do
come
through
either
the
federal
transit
administration
or
the
federal
highway
administration
and
make
their
way
through
different
organizations
locally.
That
would
be
largely
bta
and
mtc,
and
then
there
are
numerous
new
or
reinvested
in
competitive
funding
programs.
G
So
what
the
staff
is
doing
in
inter-governmental
relations
and
dot,
as
well
as
other
departments,
is
taking
a
real
look
at
all
of
these
different
competitive
funding
programs
and
outlining
which
of
our
priorities
in
san
jose
could
benefit
from
these
different
funding
programs.
For
example,
the
raise
grant
is
on
there
and
that's
what
we've
applied
for
dear
don
station.
G
The
strengthening
mobility
and
revolutionizing
transportation
or
smart
program
is
a
brand
new
program
could
be
a
fit
for
our
airport
connector.
For
example,
there
are
a
lot
of
new
funds
for
bridge
funding
needs
which
we
know
we
have
numerous
of
those
across
the
city
and
some
other
new
programs
like
projects
of
national
significance,
safe
streets
and
roads
for
all,
which
is
a
huge
priority
for
us,
with
our
vision,
zero
program,
etc.
G
A
more
full
transportation
budget
has
not
yet
been
passed
by
the
state,
and
we
wanted
to
bring
that
to
your
attention
in
may.
The
governor
proposed
a
suite
of
improvements
that
it
included
allocating
the
final
4.2
billion
in
proposition
1a
funds
for
the
high-speed
rail
project,
as
well
as
a
billion
dollars
for
transportation
projects
focused
on
the
2028
olympics,
in
los
angeles,
a
billion
dollars
for
priority
transit
and
rail
projects,
statewide
half
a
billion
or
500
million
dollars
for
grade
separations
and
great
crossing
improvements,
also,
of
course,
of
interest
to
us.
G
For
the
previous
conversation,
another
half
a
billion
for
active
transportation
program
needs
and
a
significant
investment,
more
than
400
million
for
zero
emission,
rail
and
transit
equipment
and
infrastructure.
So,
there's
a
lot
of
good
improvements
that
match
our
priorities
that
we're
urging
the
state
legislature
to
take
forward
as
they
go
back
into
session
right
now.
That
budget
does
need
to
pass
through
the
legislature
by
the
middle
of
this
month
september
11th.
So
we're
monitoring
that
very
closely
and
urging
our
legislative
partners
to
push
this
forward
so
that
we
don't
lose
these
opportunities.
G
Finally,
on
the
regional
side
plan
bay
area,
which
is
going
through
the
environmental
process
right
now,
was
urged
to
push
up
funding
for
both
high-speed
rail
and
caltrain
to
a
total
of
8.6
billion
dollars
in
the
plan.
That's
moving
through
the
process.
Now
we
also
saw
an
increase
in
money
for
modernizing
our
light
rail
system
to
five
and
a
half
billion
dollars.
G
On
the
more
local
side.
The
airport
connector
bta,
recently
approved
2.5
million
from
measure
a
funds.
The
city
will
use
those
funds
in
partnership
with
vta
and
others,
to
further
our
request
for
proposals
to
select
a
potential
public-private
partnership
partner
to
build
out
and
operate
the
connector.
G
C
People
have
been
talking
about
this
high-speed
train
between
san
francisco
and
san
jose,
forever
hasn't
happened
and
it's
expensive,
and
it's
not
sucking
not
only
that
the
city,
the
county,
the
state
they
have
rules
where
they
can't
even
buy
trains
or
anything
to
do
with
mass
transit.
If
it's
made
in
germany
read
about
it,
it's
a
really
weird
law
but
they're
not
allowed
to
even
use
the
finest
or
import
the
finest
mass
transit
equipment.
C
Due
to
all
these,
all
these
provincial
laws
that
are
happening
here-
and
I
mean
what
an
embarrassment
that
train
is
between
san
jose
and
san
francisco.
You
know
it
goes
a
mile
an
hour
for
five
miles
when
you're
going
into
san
francisco
and
going
into
san
jose.
It's
a
joke.
Everybody
knows
it.
It's
gonna
be
wasted
billions
of
dollars,
you
don't
have
a
bus
or
a
light
rail
that
ever
has
gone
to
the
airport.
C
It's
a
joke!
You
guys
don't
get
it
you're
wasting
money
you're
wasting
time.
If
you
want
to
really
you
know,
get
it
together,
get
rid
of
the
light
rail
and
just
use
buses
and
have
buses
run
on
a
frequency.
That's
all
you're
going
to
be
able
to
do
it.
You
guys
will
screw
that
up.
So
the
best
thing
you
can
actually
do.
If
you
want
to
learn
how
to
do.
Mass
transit
is
go.
C
Live
in
madrid
like
I
did
for
like
eight
years,
and
then
you
can
see
what
what
how
incredible
it
is,
how
they
run
their
transit
there,
but
you
guys
want
to
run
your
transit
like
england.
That's
not
what
you
want.
Okay,
what
you
guys
are
doing
is
gonna
you're,
just
gonna
waste
billions
of
dollars
all
over
again,
I
mean
hey
the
light
rail
was
down
for
for
three
months
and
I
don't
think
anybody
missed
it.
E
Thank
you
very
much
so
on
quiet
zones,
atherton
has
had
their
quiet
zones
for
five
years.
I
don't
know
why
it's
taking
us
so
long
and
I
would
really
appreciate
similar
treatment,
skyway,
branham
and
chinowitz.
I
can
hear
those
strengths
at
night.
I've
understand
why
we
have
to
wait
for
great
separation,
and
then
I
got
a
quick
question
to
the
chair
about
what
the
fra
risk
risk
index
represents.
E
E
Nobody
else
has
selected
a
program
in
united
states
for
the
very
simple
reason
that
it
caps
the
federal
contribution
to
the
project
to
25
percent
and
everybody
is
probably
in
the
40
or
above,
and
that
in
turns
profoundly
impacts,
our
existing
sales
tax
measures,
the
so
moving
forward.
We
will
not
be
able
to
leverage
any
of
the
new
federal
funding
programs
which
are
currently
on
the
table
until
that
is
addressed,
and
I'm
actually
in
the
middle
of
writing
a
letter
to
to
the
fda
administrator
fernandez,
the
4.2
billion
dollar.
E
Actually,
the
entire
budget
decision,
which
was
due
by
september,
the
10th,
has
just
been
delayed
to
october
the
10th,
so
they
will
not
be
the
governor
will
not
have
to
make
any
kind
of
a
decision
immediately
prior
to
the
recall
election.
In
closing
the
return,
the
high-speed
rail
eir
does
not
include
already
an
elevated
section
during
and
it's
unclear
to
me
why
the
city
insists
on
partnering
with
the
high-speed
rail
authority
instead
of
awaiting
for
the
outcome
of
the
ongoing
caltrain
government
discussions
and
potentially
taking
it
from
there.
Thank
you.
D
Yeah
paul
soto
from
the
horseshoe
one
of
the
reasons
rolling
that
they're
doing
this
is
because
perales
made
a
deal
with
them,
because
you
have
to
go
with
that
high-speed
rail.
It
has
to
go
through
the
horseshoe
okay.
This
is
the
most
red
line.
I
grew
up
in
this
area.
There's
nobody
here
on
this
panel.
That
is
more
of
an
expert
in
about
that
neighborhood
than
I
am
okay,
perales
wasn't
in
on
none
of
those
meetings
at
the
sag
and
and
all
these
other
subgroups
that
were
talking
about
this.
D
D
So
what
this
means
is
is
that
the
reason
why
ozarks
and
virginia
is
on
here,
because
the
horseshoe
has
got
to
be
demolished,
it's
the
entire
park
has
got
to
be
demolished,
so
what
paralysis
is
doing,
perales
and
and
other
members
of
these
of
the
council?
They
got
put
into
the
vta
light
rail,
okay,
so
I'm
on
this
committee
that
committed
again
so
what
palace
is
doing
is
playing
a
very
high
high
stakes,
chess
game
and
and
and
he's
doing
it
with
the
lives
of
human
beings
in
the
city
and
feels
absolutely
nothing.
D
It
is
sociopathic
to
have
absolutely
a
flat
affect
with
respect
to
the
kinds
of
corruption
that
he's
involved
in
with
respect
to
the
light
rail
with
the
high-speed
rail
train,
with
respect
to
all
the
development
that's
going
on
downtown,
and
he
does
it
with
a
straight
face:
absolutely
nothing
that
isn't
strong,
that
isn't
tough,
that
is
a
human
being.
That
is
playing
chess
with
other
human
lifes
and
cares.
Absolutely
nothing
has
no
response.
F
Hi
robin
here
thanks
for
the
words
of
paul
and
roland,
you
know
there
are
plans
that
you
know
that
for
the
next
40
or
50
years
we
can
plan
for
two
track
system
and
the
next
75
plan
for
a
four
track
system.
So
it
can
be
spaced
out
a
bit
when
the
four
tracks
will
be.
But
it
is
a
question
and
thank
you
for
this
item.
You
know
there's
a
lot
of
important
building,
that's
going
on
through
fremont
at
this
time.
F
F
So
it's
connected,
and
I
just
thought
I
would
mention
it
at
this
time-
to
keep
the
subject
matter
open
and
make
it
public
it's
important
about
the
other
transportation
issues
and
funding
that
you're
working
towards
and
considering
you
know
there
was
a
really
important
smart
cities
council
agenda
items
a
few
weeks
ago,
we're
trying
to
establish
the
future
of
data
collection
for
san
jose
and
what
we
can
be
doing.
This
fall
and
you're
having
a
really
good
set
of
you
know,
council
meetings
at
this
time.
F
You
talked
about
parking
issues
last
friday
and
you're
talking
about
transportation.
Today
you
didn't
talk
about
the
future
of
the
technology
involved
in
that
process
and
the
needs
of
open
public
policy
for
that
process
the
olympics
are
in
2028.
I
think
it's
a
great
match
to
consider.
How
do
we
develop
and
show
our
open
public
policy
ideas
at
that
time?
With
technology
I
mean:
do
you
hear
what
I'm
trying
to
go
for
here
and
what's
possible
to
create
for
ourselves?
H
Yeah,
thank
you.
I
have
some
questions
about
the
quiet
zone
work.
First,
I
want
to
thank
thank
you
for
the
work
on
getting
the
quiet
zone
to
move
forward
for
warm
springs.
I
think
it's
important
for
that
area
that
they
finally
have
that
come
to
fruition.
I
know
they've
been
working
on
that
for
a
long
time
you
had
a
list
of
four
federally
regulated
rail
areas,
I'm
curious
so
once
the
rail
line
goes
north
of
your
map
and
crosses
over
the
101
880
area
into
what
you
said
was
district
4.
G
Thank
you
very
much
and
I
am
going
to
introduce
alice
our
own,
who
deserves
all
the
credit
for
moving
this
effort
forward
with
the
warm
springs
corridor
along
with
stacey
liu
and
I'm
gonna.
Alisar
has
looked
at
the
corridor
moving
further
north,
so
alisar.
Can
you
clarify
whether
that
is
also
federally
regulated.
H
So
we
have,
you
know
north
of
there.
We
have.
The
rail
line
goes
through
the
orchard
community
in
oakland
road
area
and
crosses
over
oakland
road,
and
we
also
have
it
then
go
up
through
alviso
and
across
alviso
as
well
and
and
we've
gotten
actually
a
large.
We
had
to
continually
get
a
large
number
of
complaints
about
noise
in
the
oakland
road,
community
and
and
a
lot
and
by
mckay
pretty
much.
It's
been
a
steady.
H
G
Yeah,
absolutely
we
we
can
share
that.
I
will
say
preliminarily
that
we
have
looked
at
that
area
and
because
of
the
very
that
much
higher
vehicular
volumes
for
a
number
of
the
crossings
that
does
drive
that
risk
index
up.
So
it
speaks
a
little
bit
to.
I
believe
it
was
roland's
question
that
it's
a
multiple
factor
equation
that
gets
us
to
the
risk
index
which
lsr
could
go
into
further.
So
I
don't
misspeak.
H
Yeah,
I
know
we,
it
crosses
roko
and
it
crosses
oakland
road
and
those
are
pretty
major
crossings,
and
I
know
I
live
four
miles
from
that
crossing
and
I
hear
that
train
at
two
o'clock
in
the
morning,
and
so
I
can
imagine
what
it's
like
for
the
people
who
live
right
at
where
it
crosses
oakland
road
and
that's
why
we
get
that
complaint
a
lot.
So
we
ought
to
at
least
look
into
it
and
what
it
would
take
to
potentially
do
some
upgrades
there.
H
H
We
also
just
recently
now
moving
further
north
to
alviso
received
a
complaint
from
the
new
hotel
that
just
went
in
right
next
to
those
train
tracks,
and
you
probably
saw
that
complaint
people
who
are
staying
in
that
hotel
who
are
getting
the
horns
going
off
in
the
middle
of
the
night
and
saying
wait
a
minute.
Why?
Why
are
we
being
awakened
by
that
train
horn?
H
So
you
know
maybe
some
information
about
about
that
area
north
of
there
as
well,
all
the
way
up
in
the
alviso
community
and
I'm
sure
the
residents
in
elviso
are
affected
by
by
the
horns
there.
And
while
I'm
on
the
subject
of
trains.
I
know
this
isn't
quite
a
noise
issue,
but
we've
had
a
couple
of
deaths
on
the
train
tracks
up
in
alviso
right,
not
this
year,
but
over
the
course
of
the
last
five
or
six
years.
H
There
have
been
two
people
killed
on
the
train
tracks
where
they
cross
over,
just
as
you
head
into
the
to
the
waterfront
area,
and
so
I
have
been
interested
in
having
a
conversation
about
the
tracks
there
as
they
as
they
cross,
trying
to
remember
which
street
I
know
exactly
which
street
crossing
it
is.
But
since
that
train,
several
trains
come
through
across
the
tracks.
H
There
it's
worth
having
some
future
conversations
about
the
safety
of
the
rail
crossings
up
in
alviso
and
how
we
might
deal
with
pedestrians
who
cross
to
head
into
the
onto
the
pedestrian
trails
where
people
go
running
and
biking
and
and
head
into
the
wildlife
refuge
and
into
the
waterfront
area.
So
just
something
for
us
to
to
keep
in
mind
as
we're
dealing
with
the
railroad
safety
and
noise
issues.
G
G
Sure,
absolutely
so,
we
are
working
through
final
approval,
so
is
a
get
technical
for
a
moment
and
then
I'll
ask
elsa
if
she
has
anything
to
add,
but
in
order
to
make
changes
on
any
of
these
rail
crossings,
we
need
cpuc,
california,
public
utilities,
commission
approval
and
we
have
to
fill
out
what
is
called
a
g088b
in
order
to
get
that
and
the
stakeholders
in
this
case
of
this
corridor
up,
but
sometimes
like
along
the
sona
corridor.
It's
our
colleagues
at
vta.
G
We
need
those
stakeholders
to
sign
off
on
our
g088b
before
we
can
move
that
forward
and
get
cpc
final
approval
to
make
the
changes.
So
we
are
in
the
process.
We've
gotten
comments
from
up
very
constructive
ones
on
our
interim
plan
for
seventh
and
jackson,
as
well
as
for
the
final
plan,
and
we
are
awaiting
comments,
I
believe
from
the
cpuc
and
then
we'll
submit
those
final
documentations.
I
Okay,
yeah.
I
appreciate
that.
I
know
that
it
is
challenging
and
there's
been
a
lot
of
work.
That's
gone
into
this,
so
I
appreciate
the
update
and
I
know
our
constituents
will
too
on
this,
so
we'll
be
sharing
this.
This
conversation
and
presentation
with
them-
and
I
look
forward
to
hopefully
staying
on
on
timeline
on
on
a
good
timeline
with
that.
I
Yes,
yeah
fingers
crossed
in
regards
to
the
high-speed
rail
item
and
to
to
clarify
a
few
points.
The
environmental
justice
study
that
was
that
worked.
It
was
supposed
to
be
ongoing.
How
are
we
gonna
stay
on
top
of
that?
Just
ensuring
the
best
mitigations
possible
for
the
neighborhoods
there
gwanda
neighborhoods
gardner
tamian
that
that,
obviously,
that
worked
on
that
study
was
important
for
us
in
regards
to
high-speed
rail
continuing
down
this
path,
and
so
I
just
wanted
to
see
how
that
work
was
coming
along.
G
Yeah
absolutely
so,
we
we've
not
seen
the
latest
work
from
high-speed
rail
with
respect
to
the
environmental
justice
analysis
and
the
ways
in
which
they
propose
to
address
it.
But
we
do
we.
We
are
aware
that
they've
been
working
very
hard
on
it
and
we
do
have
time
set
aside
with
them
in
september,
early
september.
I
B
A
I
A
I
B
J
J
J
We
also
focused
a
lot
of
our
work
on
outreach,
so
outreach
both
to
our
delegation
as
well
as
members
of
the
energy
committee
leadership
and
then
really
importantly,
we
focused
a
lot
on
stakeholder
support
for
sb
612,
so
really
focused
on
many
organizations
here
in
silicon
valley
and
throughout
california.
Both
renewable
energy
firms,
tech
companies,
community
stakeholders
to
really
get
support
for
sb
612
in
the
legislature
and
then
finally,
these
last
two
initiatives.
J
So,
just
as
a
reminder
of
the
growth
of
the
pcia,
so
you
can
see
this
graph,
which
shows
you
know
since
2013
we've
seen
a
900
percent
growth
in
the
pci,
it's
a
really
significant
and
importantly,
pretty
substantial
growth
since
2018
when
our
program
launched.
So
when
we
launched
san
jose
clean
energy,
the
pcia
was
about
20
dollars
a
megawatt
hour.
J
So
in
2018
the
cpuc
changed
how
it
calculates
the
pcie
and
really
change
the
methodology
to
focus
on
short-term
energy
market
prices.
So
there's
an
annual
recalculation
every
single
year
based
on
where
those
short-term
markets
are,
and
so
that's
what
makes
it
very
challenging.
It
makes
it
very
difficult
to
predict
as
well
as
makes
it
very
volatile.
J
So
just
as
a
reminder
of
why
we
are
so
focused
on
this
initiative
and
then
the
other
thing
I
would
point
your
attention
to
on
this
slide
is
just
an
example
of
how
our
customers
see
this
on
their
bills.
So
you
know,
pcia
is
a
very
confusing
term,
but
you
can
see
here
it
shows
up
on
each
customer's
bill
right
under
the
generation
credit.
J
K
Okay,
thank
you
lori
good
afternoon,
madam
chair
and
committee
members,
I'm
carrie
smith,
I'm
going
to
cover
efforts
that
san
jose
clean
energy
led
to
educate
the
public
and
decision
makers
and
also
a
little
bit
about
some
of
the
drivers
behind
the
pg
e
above
market
costs,
which
customers
pay
for
through
the
pcia
go
ahead.
Next
slide
marina.
K
K
That
lori
mentioned,
which
is,
was
the
focus
of
our
advocacy
in
the
2021
session,
and
so
612
was
sponsored
by
cal
cca,
which
is
the
cca
trade
association
and
authored
by
senator
portentino
who's.
The
chair
of
the
california
senate
appropriations
committee
and
the
goal
of
the
this
bill
was
to
number
one
direct,
the
cpuc
to
require
utilities,
to
give
ccas
the
right
to
buy
a
proportionate
share
of
the
credits
that
are
charged
to
them
in
the
pcia.
K
So
currently,
ccas
pay
for
the
greenhouse
gas
free,
the
renewable
and
the
reliability
products,
both
through
the
pcia
and
then
again
on
the
market,
because
when
they
pay
for
these
products
through
the
pcia,
they
don't
receive
the
benefit
of
these
products,
and
by
benefit
I
mean
we
need
to
be
able
to
claim
these
products
in
order
to
comply
with
the
california
public
utilities.
Commission
requirements
to
meet
reliability,
standards,
greenhouse
gas
reduction
standards
and
renewable
portfolio
standards.
K
So
there
are
requirements
that
all
load
serving
entities
like
san
jose,
clean
energy
and
pg
e
must
meet
in
order
to
participate
in
the
california
market.
But
the
way
it's
set
up
currently
when
the
ious
control
most
of
these
products,
but
they
don't
allow
us
to
benefit
from
these
products
in
terms
of
compliance,
even
though
our
customers
pay
for
them.
So
that
was
the.
The
purpose
of
this
bill
was
to
give
to
require
the
utilities
to
offer
up
a
proportional
share
of
these
products.
K
That
would
then
optimize
the
cost
of
their
portfolio
and
reduce
pcia
and
again,
the
cost
of
the
portfolio
is
what
we're,
what
we're
paying
for
in
the
pcia
and
the
cost
of
the
portfolio.
That
utilities
don't
have
an
incentive
to
to
control
those
costs,
and
so
you
saw
the
charts
showing
them
going
up
year
after
year
and
in
fact
have
an
incentive
to
pass
them
on
to
the
ccas.
K
So
we
did
a
lot
of
work
together
with
calcia
to
to
really
educate
folks
about
what
this
means
and
the
equity
concerns
that
we
have
with
the
utilities
passing
on
the
costs
of
their
potentially,
we
might
say,
mismanaged
portfolios.
So
we
did
fact
sheets
which
you
see
on
the
left.
We
did
website
web
pages
with
calca
and
cca.
H
H
All
electricity
customers
pay
for
these
above
market
utility
costs
through
an
added
fee,
called
the
power
charge,
indifference,
adjustment
or
pcia.
The
problem
is
that
above
market
costs
are
increasing
every
year
for
utility
investments
made
years
ago,
and
ratepayers
are
on
the
hook.
Pg
e's
pcia
has
grown
900
since
2013.
H
in
2021.
The
average
residential
customer
in
san
jose
is
paying
20
per
month
for
pg
e's
above
market
costs
up
from
10
in
2018.,
because
pg
e
can
pass
all
of
their
above
market
energy
costs
onto
customers
through
the
pcia.
They
are
not
incentivized
to
keep
operating
costs,
low,
ccas,
california's,
locally
run.
Public
energy
providers
are
advocating
for
pcia
reform
to
lower
costs
for
all
californians,
regardless
of
where
your
energy
comes
from
ccas.
K
Thank
you.
So
we
we
used
this
information.
The
video
we
pushed
out
to
oh,
go
back
one
side:
marina.
Can
you
go
there?
We
go
so
we
we
pushed
the
information
out
to
our
delegation
to
leadership,
to
and
also
to
many
community-based
organizations
that
we
work
with
with
renewable
developers
and
suppliers
that
we
work
with
or
that
we
know
and
their
trade
associations
and
a
number
of
tech
companies
that
you
know
are
also
impacted
by
the
pcia
as
as
customers
and
and
then
their
trade
association.
K
So
end
of
the
day,
we
had
over
a
hundred
supporters
for
sb
six,
one
twelve
portentino.
You
know
folks,
who
sent
letters
in
to
committee
to
to
the
author
in
expressing
their
support
for
this
bill.
So
it
was
really
a
great
opportunity
to
educate
folks
on
on
what
this
really
means
and
then
it's
not
simply
a
cost.
A
stranded
asset
cost.
K
That's
left
because
cca
customers
left
the
utility,
but
it's
in
fact
it's
an
above
market
cost
that
the
utilities
are
passing
on
to
customers
and
they're,
passing
it
on
to
utility
customers
and
cca
customers.
So
it's
just
a
really
important
opportunity
around
this
bill
to
explain
to
to
the
public.
You
know
what's
happening
with
this
with
this
bill
or
with
this
pcia
cost.
K
K
So
we
had
a
tremendous
amount
of
support
and
momentum
going
through
the
senate,
and
then
it
was
scheduled
for
assembly
energy
committee
in
in
june,
but
unfortunately,
chair,
holden
pulled
the
bill
from
the
calendar
a
few
days
before
it
was
set
for
hearing
and
sb612
is
now
a
two-year
bill,
meaning
that
it
can
come
up
next
session.
We
can.
K
So
we're
unique
in
that
of
the
16
states
that
have
some
form
of
electric
competition.
Only
three
others,
three
states
have
have
no
end
date.
The
other
two
states,
besides
california,
are
massachusetts
and
new
hampshire
or
impose
some.
You
know
pose
a
fee
over
a
dollar
over
some
nominal
amount
in
nevada.
There
are
competitive
markets
in
nevada,
but
there
they
have
a
one-time
fee
for
customers
who
leave
utility
service
and
in
texas,
probably
the
most
famous
competitive
electricity
market.
K
We
also
looked
at
opportunities
to
improve
regulatory
oversight
of
utility
portfolio
costs,
including
something
that's
called
the
bundled
procurement
plan.
So
it's
a
way
for
us
to
intervene
in
a
public
utilities.
Commission
proceeding
to
challenge
some
of
the
the
portfolio
costs
that
utilities
are
claiming
in
rates
and
also
we're
looking
at
challenging
what
was
called
working
group
three,
the
puc
proceeding
that
looked
at
allocating
the
the
the
energy
products
that
we
discussed
in
sp
612.
K
There
was
also
a
puc
proceeding
to
allocate
these
products
which
didn't
go
the
way
that
we
hoped
it
would
and
so
there's
a
consideration
of
of
having
a
rehearing
and
revisiting
that
decision
to
to
push
for
allocation
of
re
reliability,
products,
calcia
and
san
jose.
Clean
energy
were
already
successful
in
advancing
standardized
reporting
of
utility
costs
that
are
passed
on
to
customers
and
increase
transparency,
so
that
we
can
help
monitor
and
control
the
costs
that
are
passed
on
to
ratepayers
next
slide.
K
So,
in
terms
of
recommendations,
we're
very
involved
in
a
number
of
pg
e
or
cpuc
rate
proceedings
and
focusing
laser
focus
on
the
accounting
of
costs
and
the
pg
e
passes
on
to
san
jose
clean
energy
and
to
ensure
against
any
potential
cost
shifts.
We're
also
looking
closely
at
california
market
trends
and
looking.
K
We
have
new
and
improved
models
to
really
track
the
costs
and
and
to
use
these
costs
as
part
of
our
regulatory
analysis,
to
to
look
at
new
policies
to
reduce
costs
and
then
we're
looking
at
revisiting
sb
612
in
the
2022
legislative
session
and
in
terms
of
recommendations
for
for
this
body.
We
would
ask
that
we
please
continue
to
thank
the
san
jose
delegation
for
their
strong
support
in
moving
this
bill
either.
Through
writing
letters
of
support.
D
Oh
oh
shoot.
I
thought
it
was
hard.
Sorry
about
that.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Paul
soto
blair
and
I
were
at
the
meeting
when
some
people
came
in
and
stated
the
entire
infrastructure
to
electrify
the
east
side
that
the
cost
was
going
to
go
downhill.
It
was
going
to
cost
the
landlords.
The
landlords
was
going
to
pass
that
cost
down
to
the
to
the
renter,
and
so
the
the
council
has
been
forewarned
about
this.
D
You
you,
you
have
no
other
function
there
other
than
the
protection
of
the
people
and
what
we
elect
you
for
is
to
be
able
to
anticipate
anticipate.
What
would
what
would
be
needed
for
the
people,
the
various
ways
in
which
they
would
be
impacted
by
a
policy
and
then
determine
the
maximum
benefit
that
you
can
get
from
legislating
a
particular
policy
to
the
people
that
don't
have
the
power
to
protect
themselves?
Against
that?
D
That
is
what
you
get
elected
for,
okay,
and
so
I
would
appreciate
if,
if
you
really
listen
to
the
ideas
that
blair
has
okay,
he
talked
very
well
about
subsidies.
He
centered
it
correctly,
and
then
he
even
gave
you
a
source
of
funding
for
it,
because
if
you
think
that
the
message
is
because
what
they'll
do
oh
we're
going
to
pay
someone
else,
we're
going
to
give
it's
almost
a
couple
hundred
thousand
we're
going
to
give.
She
should
buy
a
couple
hundred
thousand.
All
that's
wasted
money
wasted.
D
Why
85
of
the
graduating
classes
on
the
east
side,
they
graduate
3,
500
people
every
single
year,
okay,
out
of
those
3
500
85
are
not
proficient
in
math.
59
are
not
proficient
in
english.
This
is
the
graduating
class.
Okay,
so
they're
they're,
all
of
their
advocacy,
is
a
100.
It's
a
waste
of
city
money,
their
grant
money.
They
should
be
ashamed
of
themselves
for
constantly
collecting
the
money,
but
not
really
informing
the
people
about
what
it
is
that
they
can
anticipate
what
they
do.
Is
they
trust
them?
They
trust
their
judgment.
I
don't
trust.
D
Somos
si
si
puede
luna.
As
far
as
I
can
throw
them.
I
don't
trust
them
for
nothing
because
they're
in
bed
with
the
politicians
they're
experiencing
all
this
grant
money
allocation
and
we
get
nothing
nothing
in
return
for
it.
Ain't.
Nobody
on
the
east
side
on
the
west
side
happen,
there's
mexicans
on
the
west
side,
there's
mexicans
in
the
in
the
horseshoe
believe
it
I'm
there,
I'm
still
there,
I'm
gonna,
be
there.
It's
gonna,
be
the
last
place.
I'd
take
my
last
breath.
So
what
I'm
saying
is
you
need
to
protect
the
people?
B
C
C
If
the
least
the
city
council
could
do
is
help
out
any
of
the
residents,
no
matter
what
their
economic
situation
is
to
not
have
such
ridiculous
utility
bills
it
it's,
I
don't
know
any.
Is
anyone
down
there
at
city
council
raise
your
hand
if
you're
happy
with
your
utility
bill,
I
don't
see
any
hands
being
raised.
C
The
utility
lines
are
bad.
This
is
this
just
isn't
a
city
problem.
It's
a
state
problem
with
the
utilities
commission,
as
in
bed
in
sacramento,
the
the
utility
lines
haven't
been
upgraded
for
over
half
of
a
century.
Am
I
still
on
topic
here?
Yeah.
I
think
I
am,
and
I
don't
know
how
people
are
affording
their
bills,
to
pay
their
electric
bills
and
and
the
you
know
we
this
house
do
the
best
we
can
to
conserve
energy
and
do
everything
we
can.
The
bill
is
still
super
high.
C
I
can't
imagine
so
some
of
our
other
neighbors
have
utility
bills.
You
can't
believe,
but
they
don't
have
large
houses
or
families
or
anything
like
that
so
yeah,
the
least
you
people
could
do
is
help
out
the
citizens.
With
this
problem,
it's
a
total
price
gouge
welcome
to
california.
It's
been
going
on
here
since
the
gold
rush
days.
You
know
always
the
elite
white
liberals
running
this
place
into
the
ground
forever.
C
E
Can
you
hear
me
now?
Okay,
so
so?
First
of
all,
I
I
want
to
thank
staff
for
this
presentation.
It
is
obviously
this
is
of
a
grave
concern
of
everybody
who
lives
in
san
jose
and
in
the
county
in
general.
But
what
I'd
like
to
put
to
you
is
that
the
electrical
cast
issue
is
merely
a
tip
of
the
iceberg.
E
We
want
to
take
over
both
electricity
and
gas
gas
distribution
in
the
state
of
california,
and
we
appreciate
your
interest.
Please
move
on
somewhere
else
and
in
closing
off
I'm
going
to
tell
you
what's
going
to
happen.
If
we
don't,
we
were
supposed
to
be
replacing
the
gas
lines
in
my
street
when
the
last
went
bankrupt,
so
they
did
the
first
three
houses,
they
went
bankrupt
and
they
stopped.
We
know
we're
sitting
on
all
gas
lines.
If
we
don't
do
something
about
this
now,
it's
only
a
matter
of
time
and
you've
got
another
time.
F
F
F
As
an
example
of
this,
maybe
the
efforts
in
trying
to
clear
up
previous
mistakes
of
bloom
energy,
natural
gas
context.
For
the
past
few
years,
trudeau's
complacency
and
corruption
issues
a
reminder
of
some
basics.
The
sjce
has
to
learn
how
to
better
expand
itself
into
everyday
community
they're,
explaining
good
available
subsidy
programs
to
the
community
and
to
really
focus
on
good,
renewable
energy
practices
and
its
economy,
a
reminder
that
the
mostly
straight
and
narrow
work
of
east
bay
community
energy
can
really
be
of
help
in
what
can
be
a
good
direction.
F
Renewable
energy
and
sustainable
local
procurement
ideas
at
this
time
and
a
final
reminder
that
to
work
towards
our
better
ideals
and
local
economic
practices
at
this
time
could
make
it
easier
to
return
to
our
regular
good
practices
easier
and
sooner
after
any
bay
area.
Natural
disaster
events,
the
next
two
to
five
years,
sjc,
is
under
federal
contract
subsidy
plans
that
are
blocked
right
now.
We
can't
work
better
at
this
time.
We
need
to
address
these
issues
you're
trying
your
best.
I
just
wanted
to
make
you
aware
we're
blocked
by
federal
subsidy
programs.
H
Yeah,
thank
you,
and
I
want
to
thank
the
staff
for
working
on
trying
to
solve
these
issues
with
this.
These
high
charges
that
our
residents
are
facing
and
just
a
question
about
the
opposition
that
we're
getting
in
the
state
I
mean.
Obviously
I
imagine
pg
e-
is
spending
a
lot
of
money
trying
to
defeat
this
legislation.
H
You
know
our
local
delegation
is
obviously
supportive
and
I
see
on
that
list.
There
are
a
lot
of
cities
around
the
state
that
support
this,
and
I
imagine
they
have
they've
gotten
a
lot
of
the
local
delegations
also
supporting
it.
So
what
was
the
hang?
What
was
the
opposition
that
led
this
this
bill
to
be
hung
over
for
a
second
held
over
for
second
year
and
what
what
did
we
think
the
prospects
are
for
this
bill
to
move
forward
next
year
and
be
adopted.
J
Yeah,
thank
you,
council,
member
cohen,
so
I
would
say
the
main
opposition
came
from
pg
e's
labor
union
ibuw.
So
so
that
is,
you
know,
definitely
going
to
be
the
challenge
going
forward.
The
other
organization
that
was
opposed
to
this
was
churn.
They
were
a
rate
payer
advocacy
organization
that
was
also
opposed
to
the
bill.
So
those
were
the
the
two
main
opponents
to
sb
612.
J
J
K
So
we
introduced
the
bill
and
then
shortly
before
it
went
to
committee,
then
proof
there
was
a
decision,
and
so
then
that
gave
some
of
the
opponents
the
opportunity
to
say
well.
The
issue
had
already
been
deliberated
at
the
at
the
puc
and
yet
all
the
issues
that
that
we
had
come
to
a
compromise
agreement
with
with
multiple
parties
at
the
puc
that
were
in
the
bill,
weren't
addressed
by
the
puc,
and
they
didn't
even
include
it
in
their
decision.
So
it
was
just.
K
H
K
B
J
J
J
Yeah,
it's
it's
unfortunate,
something
you
know
we.
We
still
need
to
work
with
them
on,
but,
as
I
said
that
you
know
their
view
on,
it
was
so
just
to
back
up
a
little
bit
to
what
kerry
said.
Is
there
was
a
open
proceeding
at
the
commission
with
several
different
working
groups
to
work
on
pcia
reform
and
in
particular
there
was
a
working
group
three
which
focused
on
how
to
allocate
resources
that
customers
pay
for
in
the
pcia.
J
That
working
group
met
for
two
years.
It
included
ccas
the
investor
owned
utilities,
a
number
of
different
groups,
and
there
was
a
consensus
proposal
that
sb
612
is
based
on
which
you
know
basically
said.
If
cca
customers
are
paying
for
these
resources,
we
should
get
the
benefits
for
them
and
southern
california
edison
was
one
of
those
coalition
partners,
and
so
that
was
the
proposal
for
the
commission.
You
know
that
was
the
consensus
proposal
for
the
the
commission
to
consider.
J
Unfortunately,
what
the
commission
did
is.
They
did
not
take
that
consensus
proposal.
They
came
up
with
their
own
decision,
which
largely
you
know,
wasn't
in
line
with
that
proposal.
So
the
the
decision
that
they
implemented
specifically
said
that
we
didn't
get
the
resource
adequacy
got.
Some
of
the
renewable
benefits
didn't
get
the
greenhouse
gas
free
benefits.
J
It
was
largely
a
proposal
that
was
supported
by
pg
e,
so
unfortunately,
we
lost
that
at
the
commission
and
turn's
argument
was
that
well
look
you
had
your
day
at
the
commission.
The
legislature
shouldn't
reconsider
this
issue
because
they
decided
at
the
commission.
Now.
I
think
our
view
on
that
is
there's
many
things
that
go
to
the
legislature
that
the
commission
has
decided
on,
and
so
we
felt
strongly
that
we
should
go
ahead
and
proceed,
but
turn
just
didn't
agree
with
that.
J
B
And
what
is
the
outlook
for
remind
me
how
the
two-year
bill
happens?
I
forget
the
details.
If
it's
already
passed
out
of
the
senate
and
it's
in
the
assembly
committee
and
it's
been
held
until
next
session,
it
only
has
to
go
through
assembly
and
then
any
concurrence
to
go
before
it
goes
to
the
governor's
desk.
So
we're
like
halfway
there.
K
K
J
K
K
K
K
I
think
it
will
be
challenging,
given
that
the
utilities
are
strongly
opposed.
However,
we
we've
made
a
lot
of
progress
in
terms
of
educating
folks
about
what
this
charge
is
really
all
about,
and
it's
not
simply
a
cost
for
a
stranded
asset.
It's
an
above
market
cost
that
the
utilities
impose
on
all
ratepayers.
So
it's
a
it's
a
shared
ratepayer
cost
and
ratepayer
costs
are
going
up
as
one
of
the
members
of
the
public
pointed
out.
K
So
so
there
is
that
that
angle,
and
so
we'll
continue
to
work
on
it
and
maybe
there's
a
slightly
different
way
to
get
at
it.
I'm
not
sure,
but
I
think
the
the
progress
that
we've
made
with
the
coalition
in
terms
of
educating
folks
about
what's
at
stake
and
and
people
are,
are
engaged
and
continue
to
tell
us
that
that
they
want
to
work
with
us
going
forward.
J
Yeah,
it's
a
really
good
question
councilmember,
so
just
to
clarify-
and
I
think
it's
an
important
point
is
that
pg
e's,
a
local
ibew,
is
opposed
to
it,
but
other
locals
are
not
so
I
think
that's
an
important
distinction
that
this
is
really
pg.
E
is
labor
union
which
is
opposing,
and
so
you
know
I
think
again,
it's
it's
going
to
be
challenging,
but
you're
right.
You
know
that
fundamentally,
jobs
are
not
at
stake
with
this.
It's
really
about
equity,
of
the
resources
that
customers
are
paying
for.
J
So
you
know,
cal
cca
is
really
trying
to
work
with
other
labor
unions
and
also
continuing
to
try
to
you
know,
obtain
a
better
relationship
with
pg
e's
labor
union,
but
you
know
that,
obviously,
is
very
challenging.
I
think
you
know
in
terms
of
work.
We
will
continue
to
do
and
you
know
for
the
rest
of
this
year
and
into
2022.
It's
really
important
for
us
to
build
broader
support
within
the
labor
industry
and
that's
something
that
we've
been
working
on
and
also
other
ccas,
and
particularly
you
know.
J
I
think
we
have
opportunities
when
we
build
our
long-term
contracts
and
we
will
be
coming
back
to
this
committee
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
that,
and
I
know
councilmember
cohen
also
had
those
questions,
and
so
I
think,
there's
opportunities
there,
where
you
know
many
of
the
the
projects
that
we're
constructing
those
long-term
renewable
projects
are
using
project.
Labor
agreements
we're
using
union
labor,
and
so
that
is
an
opportunity,
try
to
try
to
get
more
support
from
that
coalition.
J
I
H
Yeah
quickly,
I
think
I
think
you
answered
my
question.
I
was
I
we
were
talking
about
pg
e,
but
this
is
not
just
pg
e.
It's
all
the
utilities
across
the
state
that
are
opposing
this
right.
So
even
the
because
you
at
first
you
said
that
the
sb
612
was
kind
of
put
together
with
southern
cal
edison,
but
then
but
they're
still
opposing
it
now
or
what's
the.
J
Yeah
so
great
question
the
council,
member
and
and
unfortunate
so
at
the
commission.
Under
the
working
group,
three
consensus
proposal-
southern
california
edison-
was
supportive,
pg
e
and
san
diego
gas
and
electric
were
not.
You
know
the
other
member
there.
There
were
some
independent
power
producers
also
in
that
coalition
of
support.
So
we,
you
know
over
two
years,
really
challenging
issue,
but
you
know
really
got
to
thank
calca
for
all
the
work
there,
just
to
get
the
amount
of
support
that
they
did
at
the
commission
with
the
consensus
proposal.
J
But
what
ended
up
happening
is,
after
the
commission
issued
their
their
proposed
decision,
which
was
much
different
than
the
consensus
proposal
and
southern
california
edison
took
the
same
approach
as
turn
and
basically
opposed
it,
because
the
commission
had
already
acted,
and
so
they
they
took
that
same
viewpoint.
I
don't
care
if
you
want
to
add
more
details.
There.
H
J
H
That
was
unfortunate
and
then
it
is
unfortunate,
then,
that
also
that
these
corporations
get
these.
What
these
get
are
able
to
splinter
off
these
labor
groups
to
kind
of
go
against
the
environmental
thing
to
do,
and
it
happens
a
lot.
We
see
these
individual
labor
unions
not
not
side
on
the
environmental
side
and
not
side
with
the
rest
of
labor
and
cause
these
divisions,
but
hopefully
we
can.
We
can
work
with
them
going
forward
and
getting
and
build
a
better
consensus
on
this
and
councilman
davis.
H
You
may
be
asked
the
wrong
question
rather
about
who's
chairing
the
committee.
We
also
have
to
ask
who's
going
to
be
governor
next
year
when
the,
when
this
bill
comes
forward,
but
hopefully
we'll
we'll
still
have
a
supportive
governor
on
these
kinds
of
issues
at
the
same
time.
At
this
point
next
year
anyway,
thank
you
for
the
answer
to
the
question
sure.
B
I
D
Yes,
paul
soto.
I
appreciate
the
check
council
member
davis.
It's
just
that
sometimes
a
lot
of
these
items
they
are
connected.
It
may
seem
it's
discordant,
but
when
you
talk
about
the
protection
of
the
people
and
then
you
talk
about
the
rates
being
raised,
they
there
there
is
a
connection
there,
but
I
I
appreciate
the
check.
There's
there
coming
up
in
the
next
couple
of
months.
D
That
was
one
of
the
things
that
he
primarily
advocated
for
blair.
Did
spanish
interpretation
be
given?
Okay?
I
don't
speak
spanish
because
of
the
tragedies
that
were
happening
in
the
elm
rock
school
district.
Okay,
so
I'm
disconnected
so.
Groups
that
are
receiving
money
are
conducting
their
meetings
only
in
spanish,
but
yet
they're
receiving
city,
san
jose
city,
tax,
money
grant
money,
okay,
and
so
that's
offensive
to
me
to
come
to
these
meetings
and
be
excluded
from
those
meetings
and
san
jose
is
paying
for
that.
Come
on
man,
there's
there's
a
little
bit
of
corruption.
D
There,
man
it's
got
to
be
square,
there's
there's
something
that
has
to
be
done
about
the
corruption
in
these.
Not
only
that
south
bay
labor
council
is
the
one
that
facilitated
that
150
million
dollar
deal
so
for
for
them
to
start
having
to
say
with
respect
to
the
electricity
and
all
of
the
expenses.
It's
going
to
take
to
build
that
infrastructure.
F
F
F
I
think
2023
is
also
the
year
the
sjc
e
can
renegotiate
their
state
and
federal
funding.
Contract
is
my
understanding
that
current
contracts
cannot
allow
sjc
to
better
expand
community
energy
and
renewable
energy
ideas
to
everyday
san
jose
community.
At
this
time,
why
mention
the
corruption
factor
and
the
complacency
factor?
My
previous
item,
thank
you
with
38
seconds.
Ebay
guys
have
been
doing
some
great
work
this
month
to
try
to
talk
about
important
items
and
subjects.
F
F
E
E
E
E
You
know
it's
a
polling
of
this
mode
and
now
you're
looking
at
san
jose
san
jose
is
actually
worse
because,
yes,
an
airport
connector
could
be
useful
to
people
who
live
downtown
or
south
of
san
jose,
but
I
can
assure
you
there's
no
way
that
somebody
from
palo,
alto
or
anywhere
in
the
east
bay
is
ever
going
to
get
down
to
daridan.
I
need
to
make
a
u-turn
and
head
right
back
to
the
airport.
E
That's
not
going
to
happen,
so
this
is
why
we
made
a
different
proposal
whereby
we
would
have
a
station
at
the
airport
and
right
north
of
this
station.
There
would
be
a
fork
that
would
either
go
to
these
bay
or
or
go
and
connect
back
to
the
caltrain
tracks
on
the
peninsula,
but
things
get
really
really
interesting
when
you
move
south,
because
the
proposal
we
have
to
address
paul
soto's
problem
is
not
to
have
four
tracks
at
grade.
E
We
also
have
a
proposal
for
an
additional
two
underground
tracks
and
those
two
underground
tracks
serve
two
platforms
under
the
rhythm
under
google
that
got
the
same
capacity
as
the
as
the
other
eight
elevated
platforms,
but
those
two
platforms
go
to
the
airport
that
resolves
all
the
problems.
It
resolves
all
the
issues
with
the
airport
connector
and
these
resources
all
the
issues.
This
is
massive
for
track
traffic
going
to
gartner
in
willowman.
Thank
you.
