I

You
so
much
and
moving
on
to
presentations,
we
have
Consuelo's
Place,
exploring
the
role
of
non-congregate
shelter
beyond
the
pandemic.
Director
Kira
Ochoa
of
community
health
and
safety
department
is
here
along
with
Julie
Sanchez
I
have
Alexandra,
lad,
listed
I,
see
guests,
so
take
it
away.
A
As
many
of
you
know,
when
we
stood
up
the
shelter,
the
emergency
shelter
at
Midtown
in
2019,
the
intention
was
to
prevent
the
spread
of
covid
in
a
population
that
has
a
really
high
risk,
not
only
because
they
might
be
in
congregate,
settings
together,
but
because
homeless
folks
tend
to
have
higher
rates
of
chronic
disease,
less
access
to
sanitation,
and
the
other
intention
was
to
prevent
outbreaks
of
covid
and
the
general
population,
because
we
were
concerned
that
you
know
homeless
folks
couldn't
isolate
at
home
and
would
be
using
public
spaces.
A
I'm
happy
to
report
that
I
think
we've
we've
had
achieved
both
goals
in
standing
up
the
Midtown
shelter
three
years
then
now
we
are
is
that
right.
My
math
may
be
wrong,
but
a
while
in
it's
all
a
blur
with
the
pandemic,
but
we're
finding,
along
with
a
lot
of
other
communities
in
the
United
States.
That
non-congregate
shelter
is
a
really
important
part
of
the
Continuum
in
addressing
and
reducing
homelessness.
A
According
to
current
Studies
by
the
urban
Institute
and
Berkeley's
tenor,
Center
for
housing,
Innovation
we're
finding
that
non-congregate
shelter
provides
a
really
important
additional
option
to
people
who
would
not
normally
use
congregate
or
group
shelter
which
has
allowed
us
to
serve
people
that
had
not
previously
been
reached.
A
Here's
a
quote
from
the
the
housing
Federal
Housing
Authority,
HUD,
NCS
or
non-congregate
shelter
programs
offer
communities
a
head
start
in
rapidly
identifying
a
cohort
of
people
at
high
risk
for
bad
outcomes
from
infection
and
disease.
They
also
create
an
ideal
platform
for
streamlining
the
process
of
helping
people
find
and
move
into
housing
that
meets
their
needs.
A
So
not
only
are
we
finding
that
non-congregate
housing
plus
really
great
Services,
can
provide
and
better
protection
from
people
against
covet
and
it's
unfortunately,
still
an
issue
as
covid
numbers
are
rising
this
season
here
in
Santa
Fe
county,
but
we're
also
finding
that
you
know
that
it's
a
great
part
of
the
Continuum
beyond
the
pandemic
and
we
do
have
a
lot
of
people
out
of
doors
still
between
July,
1st
and
September
30th
of
this
of
this
year,
LifeLink
served
104
people,
people
in
those
three
months
report
camping
on
the
streets
or
out
of
doors.
A
Our
park
rangers
are
finding
they're
serving
about
15
people
per
week
that
are
unduplicated
and
we
don't
have
great
counts
still,
but
we
know
there
are
a
lot
of
people
out
there
that
need
Alternatives
so
with
that
I
want
to
turn
it
over
to
director
of
affordable
housing.
Alexandra
Ladd,
no
I'm
not
doing
that
you're
just
here
to
be
supportive
and
answer
questions
I'm.
Sorry,
you
guys
we're
we're.
A
Forgive
me!
Well,
we
well
we'll
get
to
the
good
stuff
right
now,
which
is
I'm
really
pleased
to
be
able
to
introduce
to
you,
Heather
lavalie,
the
executive
director
of
Consuelo's
place
and
Abdullah
chudnov
who's,
the
deputy
director
of
Consuelo's
place,
and
they
have
a
short
presentation
which,
because
they're
extremely
busy
doing
great
work,
wasn't
uploaded
but
will
be
after
the
presentation.
Thank
you
so
much.
F
So
yeah
we
have
a
little
presentation.
This
is
the
history
of
Consuelo's
place.
As
Kira
said,
we
were
started
as
a
shelter
to
help
mitigate
sorry
can.
F
Me
now,
yes,
that's
better,
thank
you,
so
we
did
start
out
as
a
shelter
to
help
mitigate
the
spread
of
covid
and
other
infectious
diseases
among
the
homeless
population.
Here
in
Santa,
Fe
there's
also
some
services
that
we
offer
up
there.
F
So
we
we
obviously
House
people,
we
still
do
quarantine.
We
still
we
went
from
24
quarantine
Apartments
down
to
four,
though
so
we
have
eight
quarantine
beds
right
now.
F
We
often
are
short
of
quarantine
beds,
because
I
know
a
lot
of
people
think
that
the
pandemic
is
over,
but
we
still
get
a
lot
of
requests
for
quarantine.
Some
of
the
other
services
we
offer
are
intensive
case
management,
care
coordination,
Transportation
coordination.
We
offer
a
little
bit
of
financial
assistance
like
with
car
repairs
for
people
that
need
to
get
to
medical
appointments
or
job
interviews
or
work.
We
do
provide
dinner
and
snacks,
which.
G
F
F
F
So
as
of
October
31st,
we
have
25
individuals
that
have
transitioned
into
permanent
housing.
Recently,
our
board
has
voted
to
prioritize
certain
groups.
These
are
the
people
that
they
feel
would
benefit
most
from
non-congregate
shelter,
since
it
is
such
a
rare
commodity
in
around
here.
So
families
with
young
children,
community
members
over
55,
lgbtqia
plus,
who
would
normally
be
at
risk
at
a
congregate,
shelter,
veterans
and
medical
respite.
F
So,
as
of
October
31st,
these
are
the
the
issues
we've
been
seeing.
Lately
the
number
of
quarantine
Apartments
has
been
reduced
from
24
to
4,
as
I
mentioned
earlier.
F
We
only
have
two
ADA
Compliant
rooms,
which
has
been
a
problem
like
recently,
we've
had
a
larger
need
for
that.
You
know
we
do
what
we
can,
but
most
of
the
time
when
our
rooms
become
available.
You
know
we
have
a
lot
of.
We
have
Upstairs
Downstairs,
so
we
have
to
really
try
to
pick
and
choose
where
we
put
people.
F
So
these
are
some
of
our
challenges
and
successes,
so
we're
temporarily
housed
right
now,
which
is
one
of
our
biggest
problems,
so
as
of
I,
think
June
30th
of
2023,
we
probably
won't
be
housed
at
the
Midtown
campus
anymore.
So
that's
of
immediate
concern
also,
as
I
said
before,
people
are
staying
longer
at
the
shelter
because
of
lack
of
affordable
housing
right
now.
F
A
lack
of
health
literacy
among
the
population
that
we
serve
makes
quarantining
sometimes
a
bit
of
a
problem.
People
often
wonder
why
they
can't
leave
when
they're
in
quarantine
and
a
lack
of
stable
funding
sources
are
our
challenges.
F
Successes
are
we've
housed
about
20
percent
of
our
people,
which
is
above
the
national
average
of
people
getting
housed
out
of
shelters,
I,
think
I
read
somewhere.
It
was
about
10
percent
I.
Think
non-congregate
shelter
really
provides
a
greater
level
of
stability
for
our
clients.
F
It
it's
kind
of
it's
like
a
more
dignified
way
to
shelter
people
you
know,
especially
if
you
have
medical
problems
or
you're
in
recovery
or
you've
got
PTSD
or
any
kind
of
stuff
like
that.
Having
your
own
room
to
go
to
really
makes
a
big
difference
in
being
able
to
stay,
sober
or
work
out
whatever
it
is.
You
need
to
work
out.
It's
a
great
place
to
stabilize
it's
a
really
good
bridge
between.
F
Like
regular
congregate,
shelter
or
living
outside
and
being
housed
in
in
the
community,
it's
good
practice.
You
know
our
shelter
and
I
would
invite
any
of
you
who
are
interested
to
come
check
it
out.
We
have
a
really
great
sense
of
community.
Our
residents
are
really
neighborly
and
they
really
help
each
other
out.
It's
a
wonderful
thing
to
witness
really.
F
So
we
are
currently
looking
for
a
permanent
base
of
operations
for
Consuelo's
place.
That's
what
coming
what's
coming!
Next,
we're
planning
on
implementing
classes
like
parenting
classes
and
we're
doing
a
rent,
Readiness
class
with
Partners
from
the
community
to
help
our
clients
be
more
ready
to
integrate
into
the
community
and
we're
looking
to
set
up
a
day,
labor
program.
Also,
these
are
things
that
are
all
in
the
works
right
now,.
F
F
These
are
a
few
quotes
from
people
in
the
community.
This,
in
particular,
is
a
the
director
of
Casa
Milagro.
She
calls
it
a
congregate
housing
facility.
F
She
talks
about
how
important
it
is
to
have
these
options
in
the
community,
for
you
know,
people
who
really
need
a
the
opportunity
to
stabilize
and
stuff
like
that,
and
she
says
she
hopes
that
there
are
more
options
like
this
available
in
the
future,
and
this
is
a
a
client
who
talked
about
how
dangerous
he
felt
congregate.
Shelter
was
for
him.
F
He
talks
about
how
he
felt
unsafe
enough
that
he
couldn't
sleep
inside
the
shelter
he
thought
his
stuff
was
going
to
get
stolen
and
he's
seen
people
assaulted
and
he
talks
about
how
congregate
shelter,
helped
him
really
stabilize
and
feel
like.
He
could
go
out
and
look
for
a
job,
and
you
know
maintain
his
hygiene
and
stuff
like
that.
So.
F
Quotes
from
people
about
non-congregate
shelter
pay
for
a
more
dignified
place
for
people,
the
stabilize
any
questions.
B
Thank
you
so
much
members
of
the
committee
any
comments
or
questions
at
this
time.
H
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
Thank
you
for
the
thorough
information.
I
really
appreciate
it
and
more
so
thank
you
for
all
the
dedicated
service
you've
provided
to
our
community
in
a
and
a
very
desperate
time
during
a
pandemic
facing
the
increase
in
in
the
in
unhoused
and
and
so
thank
you
yeah.
The
only
question
I
have
for
you
is
I.
Think
you
mentioned
that
you're
looking
at
transitioning
out
of
the
Midtown
campus
around
June
2023,
have
you
started
transition
planning?
What
the
next
steps
might
look
like.
A
Manager,
Council
Garcia,
that's
a
great
question:
the
Santa
Fe
Housing
Initiative,
which
is
a
you,
know,
coordinated
effort
on
the
part
of
the
city,
the
county
and
in
Quorum,
and
other
foundations
like
the
Santa
Fe
Community
Foundation
are
all
working
together
on
a
set
of
initiatives,
and
one
of
those
is
the
projects
is
to
look
for
another
location
for
non-congregate
shelter,
and
so
you
know
and
quorum's
been
a
great
partner
in
this.
A
F
H
Awesome
and
the
follow-up
question
was:
are
we
working
with
staff
to
get
get
this
addressed
and
answers?
Yes,
so
I'll
leave
it
to
to
you
all
to
to
make
magic
happen
and
hopefully
come
June
that
there
will
be
a
different
home
for
y'all
and
if
there's
not,
do
we
have
a
potential
Plan
B,
maybe
looking
at
other
City
properties,
I'm,
just
trying
to
figure
out
it'll
be
June
before
we
know
it.
So
a.
D
Madam,
chair
Council
Garcia,
we
are
not
going
to
put
them
on
the
street
I
just
want
to.
Let
everyone
know
that,
but
there
is.
This
was
an
emergency
plan
temporarily,
as
we
build
development
and
I
think
direct
archoa
talked
about.
There
are
some
strategies
in
place
now,
and
they
hopefully
will
be
done
by
the
June
time
frame.
But
there's
a
lot
of
action
happening
behind
the
scenes.
We're.
D
H
The
best
thank
you
for
providing
these
critical
services
to
some
of
the
most
in
need
in
our
community.
That's
all
I
got
Madam
chair.
Thank
you.
So
much.
B
E
Thank
you,
madam
chair,
and
thank
you
for
to
you
and
your
team
for
the
work
you
do.
I
was
thinking
about
congregate,
shelter
and
how
folks
that
aren't
experiencing
homelessness
wouldn't
want
to
be
in
a
congregate,
shelter,
atmosphere
anyway,
because
it's
disruptive
either
way
so
I
I.
Just
think
about
that
that
we
shouldn't
put
people
experiencing
homelessness
in
that
situation
too.
So
I
appreciate
we
have
this
space.
Did
you
want
to
say
more
about
that.
F
We
don't
require
our
people
to
leave
during
the
day,
which
I
think
is
a
a
big
help
in
deterring.
You
know
like
people
from
hanging
around
on
the
sidewalks.
F
Like
that,
you
know
people
who
don't
know
any
place
to
go
during
the
day,
so
at
a
non-congregate,
shelter
or
at
least
our
non-congregate
shelter,
they
don't
have
to
leave
during
the
day
they
can
stay
at
the
shelter.
So
it
helps.
E
A
Chair
councilman
Villarreal,
there
will
be
housing
at
The
Lamplighter,
so
there
are
a
number
of
people
staying
at
the
shelter
who
have
housing
vouchers
and
they
would
be
eligible
for
housing
at
a
project
like
The
Lamplighter,
but
because
of
the
way
that
those
units
are
allocated
which
is
through
the
New
Mexico
coalition
to
end
homelessness,
coordinated
entry
system,
which
is
very
much
as
it
should
be.
You
know
the
people
with
the
highest
priority
are
are
given
housing
for
voucher.
A
If
they
have
vouchers,
there's
no
one-to-one
guarantee
that
people
from
Consuelos
will
will
go
into
the
Lamplighter.
But
yes,
that
is
a
hope
and
a
possibility.
Okay,.
E
Thank
you
I
think.
That's
it
just
appreciate
the
work
you're
doing
and
that
we
were
able
to
utilize
space
on
the
Midtown
campus.
It's
it's
ironic,
because
I
remember
when
we
first
started
conversations
when
I
started
on
Council
about
how
a
Midtown
property
should
be
used
and
I
had
talked
about
utilizing
the
space
for
I
didn't
call
it
non-congregate,
but
looking
at
it
as
another
option
for
shelter
and
everybody
laughed
at
me,
like
you're
crazy.
E
How
could
you
think
that
here
we
are,
and
so
I
think
it's
great,
that
we
were
able
to
utilize
that
space
and
hopefully
we
can
find
an
even
better
space
to
support
folks
that
are
currently
at
consuela's
place.
So
thank
you
for
your
work.
B
Thank
you
anything
else
for
members
of
the
committee.
I
have
a
couple
questions:
how
many
total
rooms
do
you
have
right
now.
I
So
because
it
is
an
older
building,
quite
often
we
find
that
there
are
some
infrastructure
issues
that
will
creep
up,
as
it
is
right
now,
I
believe
we
have
17
family
rooms
available
and
I
think
we
have
20
single
individual
rooms
that
are
available.
B
Okay,
so
about
37
total
rooms
and
then,
as
as
we're
looking
at
relocation,
if
you
were
to
have
a
larger
space
with
more
rooms,
do
you
have
the
organizational
capacity
to
take
on
more
individuals.
I
I
Have
that
opportunity
for
privacy,
people
really
I
think
understand
it
that
it
is
an
opportunity
we
are
very
blessed
with
a
great
population
at
the
shelter.
I
We
definitely
could
use
an
additional
case
manager,
particularly
a
bilingual
case
manager,
but
I
do
believe
that
we
have
the
capacity
to
increase
our
size.
Okay,.
B
Yeah
I
think
that's
as
as
long
as
we
know
that
you're
going
to
have
to
move
I
think
that
that's
a
you
know
aspirational.
We
we
really
shoot
for
the
shoot
for
the
moon
and
trying
to
find
those
larger
locations,
or
would
you
be
able
to
do
multiple
locations
if
you
know
kind
of
they
Cobble
together
or
something
of
that
nature?
I
know
that
gets
a
little
bit
more
challenging.
F
I
think
we
can
do
it.
We
have
kind
of
backup
plans
regarding
that
kind
of
stuff,
depending
on
where
we
end
up.
So
as
long
as
we
have
adequate
staff,
I
think
it
shouldn't
be
a
problem.
Okay,.
J
Thank
you,
madam
chair
I,
just
wanted
to
add,
too
that
this
this
work
doesn't
come
for
free
and
we've
been
really
lucky.
We've
had
access
to
a
lot
of
Recovery
Act
rescue
plan
funds,
so
we've
been
able
to
do
this.
J
My
office
has
funded
almost
all
of
the
operations
at
the
shelter.
This
is
not
sustainable,
so
the
governing
body
is
going
to
need
to
make
that
funding
and
policy
decision
when
the
budget
comes
up.
I
really
encourage
you
to
consider
that,
because
we
this
model
works,
I
mean
you.
You
saw
this
this
evidence,
but
we
we
have.
We
have
really
moved
mountains
here
and
I
think
Heather
was
was
very
modest.
You
know
she
has
an
amazing
team.
She's
brought
amazing
talents.
J
The
previous
director,
as
well
City
staff
who
set
this
up.
You
know
I,
think
to
your
point:
councilor
verreal.
We
didn't
think
we
could
do
it.
We
also
didn't
have
any
idea
what
a
pandemic
was
all
about,
and
so
you
know
this
is
a
huge
lesson
learned
like
this
is
actually
a
better
way
to
do
this
than
to
shelter
people
the
way
we
have
in
the
past.
So
I'm
just
gonna
put
that
little.
B
B
Of
you
to
think
about
always
a
good
plug
to
put
in
with
this
audience,
Whenever
there
are
dollars
needed.
That
is
one
of
our
core
functions,
and
thank
you
for
that
point.
I
mean
I.
I,
think
that
that
has
been
kind
of
a
constant
question.
I've
had
after
the
pandemic
is
what
do
we
take
away
and.
D
B
B
Something
that
maybe
to
look
at
but
really
actually
being
forced
into
the
situation
with
the
pandemic
of
not
being
able
to
do
the
congregate
has
really
showed
not
just
the
benefits
for
covid
but
overall
another
thing.
This
is
kind
of
more
of
a
comment,
something
to
think
about.
You
mentioned
a
lack
of
health
literacy
prior
to
moving
back
home.
B
My
very
last
job
in
San
Diego
was
I
was
coordinating
a
program
where
we
bought
volunteer,
Physicians
into
homeless,
shelters,
low-income
schools,
affordable
housing
communities,
but
really
you
know
this
population
was
actually
really
key
for
that
and
and
the
the
core
Focus
really
was
focusing
on
families
and
on
trauma,
but
it
does
bring
up
this
kind
of
idea
that
we
understand
you
know
covid.
Not
only
is
health
literacy
challenging
in
regular
times,
but
but
covet
is
something
that
is
frequently
changing.
B
It
is
like
nothing
we've
ever
experienced
before,
and
you
mentioned
in
Quorum
as
a
partner,
I'm
curious
if
there's
been
any
overlap
working
with
the
hospitals
in
terms
of
bringing
some
of
that
education
that
Health
Care
to
the
population
as
we
are
going
to
continue
to
ebb
and
flow
with
this
pandemic
and
moments
of
quarantine.
A
Madam
chair
great
question
early
on,
we
did
have
the
Department
of
Health
nurses,
present
and
I
think
some
of
that
was
done
informally,
certainly
with
the
city
staff
that
were
from
the
libraries
from
the
recreation
department
and
our
amazing
Public
Works,
director
Regina
wheeler,
who
ran
that
shelter
as
the
Director,
so
that
was
happening
at
the
beginning
and
then
Christa
St
Vincent
has
been
a
really
big
fan
of
Consuelos
because
of
the
medical
respite
and
the
quarantine
that's
been
possible.
A
I
Yeah,
so
we've
been
really
fortunate,
with
Krista
St
Vincent's
to
be
in
close
partnership
with
the
hugs
program,
the
high
utilizer
and
that's
been
absolutely
fantastic.
We
do
get
a
lot
of
individuals
who
would
be
at
higher
vulnerability
if
they
were
back
on
the
street
or
in
congregate
shelter.
So
we
do
work
closely
with
them
to
prioritize
again
that
demographic
that
really
needs
it.
I
We
probably
have
one
of
their
people
over
at
the
shelter
at
least
once
a
week,
they're
a
great
resource
both
for
the
residents
and
for
the
staff.
Whenever
we
do
have
health
questions,
I
think
it
definitely.
I
Positive
effect
on
people's
understanding
and
awareness
around
you
know
infectious
diseases
in
a
group
setting
yeah.
It's.
B
Really
interesting
because
you
know
in
public
health,
we
frequently
have
this
this
issue,
that
the
population
that
needs
the
programming
the
most
are
the
hardest
to
reach
and,
of
course,
in
the
congregate
shelters.
B
The
turnover
just
makes
it
really
challenging
to
be
doing
some
of
this
programming,
not
that
you
don't
have
enough
on
your
plate,
but
my
brain
of
course
goes
to
this
kind
of,
like
oh
wow,
what
a
what
an
amazing
opportunity
to
be
doing
some
of
these
health
education,
health
promotion,
preventative
health
programming
that
is
kind
of
the
bread
and
butter
of
a
lot
of
public
health
education
that
we,
the
population
that
we
normally
lose
and
constantly
have
a
hard
time
really
doing
some
programming
there.
B
So
just
just
to
throw
that
nugget
out
there
for
potentially
in
the
future.
If
there
might
be
some
opportunity,
I
think
it's.
It
is
a
another
benefit
of
this
type
of
model
that
we
frequently
don't
see
is
is
where
some
of
those
kind
of
more
traditional
Public,
Health
Services,
might
really
fit
in
with
a
population
that
is
so
vulnerable
and
frequently
needs
it.
So
free
so
much
last
question,
so
you
mentioned
that
there
are
161
people
on
the
wait
list.
Where
are
those
individuals
right
now
I'm
sure
it's
a
mix
but.
I
Yeah,
so
right
now,
I
believe
that
the
typical
wait
time
for
individuals
who
don't
need
a
prioritization
category
is
about
four
and
a
half
months
to
enter
shelter
services.
So
it's
a
really
long
time,
especially
as
we're
getting
into
the
colder
months
about
once
a
week.
I
generally
try
to
follow
up
with
as
many
of
those
individuals
as
I
can
just
to
ascertain
where
they
are
staying.
I
Quite
a
number
of
people
are
utilizing,
congregate,
shelters.
There
are
a
number
of
individuals,
though,
who
again
have
communicated
that
at
congregate.
Shelter
is
not
a
safe
and
appropriate
place
for
them
to
be
staying.
Quite
often,
we
have
individuals
who
are
still
camping
out.
You
know
if
they.
D
D
I
Like
I
said,
concrete,
shelters
camping
out
every
once
in
a
while
someone's
really
lucky
and
their
crisis
has
been
resolved,
but
that
generally
is
pretty
far
too
in
between
okay.
B
Thank
you,
I
think.
That's
a
really
important
point,
because
one
of
the
conversations
that
we've
been
or
kind
of
talking
points
that
we've
heard
when
we
have
been
discussing
some
of
these
alternative
models
for
working
with
the
unhoused
population.
So
whether
it's
the
safe
sleeping
spaces
that
we've
been
discussing
is
this
conversation
of
well,
they
don't
want
help.
They
don't
want
housing,
they
they
prefer
to
be
camping
and
so
understanding
that
there
actually
are
a
number
of
individuals
that
are
camping
out
on
the
wait
list.
B
You
know
really
trying
to
get
into
Consuelos,
because
the
congregate
shelters
are
just
not
going
to
work
for
them.
I
think
that
that's
a
really
important
narrative,
it
doesn't
mean
that
there
aren't
individuals
who
maybe
are
camping
and
don't
want
to
go
somewhere,
but
that's
not
that's
not
universally
true
and
I
think
that
that
is
really
important
for
us
to
be
hearing
as
well
as
when
we
continue
to
have
these
conversations
with
the
community
that
that
is
that's
there
as
well.
So
thank
you
for
sharing
that
I.
B
Don't
believe
that
I
have
any
other
questions.
Thank
you
for
adding
that
list
of
needs.
So
for
anyone
in
the
public-
and
maybe
that
is
something
that
we
can
somehow
communicate
out
via
other
channels-
I
think
that
that
would
be
especially
with
the
holiday
season.
We
know
that
there
are
a
lot
of
people
that
they
get.
B
They
get
very
generous
this
time
of
year,
which
is
which
is
wonderful
and
so
how
we
can
really
utilize
that
so
Kira
and
Rich,
and
you
know,
as
we
talked
to
the
team
of
what
might
be
some
channels
in
the
city,
we
can
push
that
information
out
and
thank
you
to
both
of
you
and
your
teams
for
this
work
as
counselors
Garcia
and
Gabriel
mentioned.
This
is
really.
This
is
crucial.
This
is
hard,
and
you
know
it's
also
I
know
it's
really
emotionally
hard.
B
When,
when
I
was
working
with
the
homeless
population
in
San
Diego
and
it's,
it
can
be
a
real
drain
on
you
as
individuals,
and
so
thank
you
because
I
know
it
really
takes
a
lot
out
of
you.
People
don't
get
into
this
work
unless
they
care,
because
we
definitely
don't
do
it
for
the
money.
So
I
know
that
it's.
It
really
is
a
a
career
of
passion,
so
thank
you
for
that
and
for
bringing
that
to
our
community.
B
Julie
always
has
an
open
invitation
to
speak
in
my
world.
Okay,
moving
on
to
our
consent,
calendar
councilman
video
pulled
our
minutes
from
the
October
19th
quality
of
life
committee
meeting,
councilman
veterans.
E
Madam
Jared
I
am
waiting
for
it.
Okay,
there
we
go
I
want
to
say
it's
a
prime
gov
thing,
but
I'm
not
quite
sure.
If
you
go
hold
on.
E
B
I'm
also
noticing
that
I'm
not
saying
counselor,
Lee
Garcia
was
present
and
I
don't
I'm
only
seeing
one
counselor
Garcia.
We
need
both
of
them
so
Elizabeth,
yes,
Madam.
C
Chair,
yes,
there
were
issues
again
with
Prime
gov
on
this
committee
meeting
and
I've
been
working
with
Jeff
Norris
on
it
on
Monday.
He
made
changes
to
align
to
what
it
should
have
been,
but
if
there
are
still
issues
so
we
are
working
back
and
forth
to
get
it
correct
and
those
are
the
exact
issues
the
the
members
present
and
that
particular
vote.
So
hopefully
by
tomorrow,
he
we
should
have
it
back
together
on
as
correct.
B
Wonderful,
thank
you
so
much
that
being
the
case,
I
would
recommend
that
we
postpone
voting
on
this,
not
proving
these
until
our
next
meeting
is.
E
Yeah,
that
would
be
the
emotion
so
for
the
action
item
that
was
uniform
traffic
ordinance
governing
Mufflers.
There's
no
vote
recorded
on
that
this
action
item
and
we
I
think
move
forward
without
a
recommendation,
but
the
vote's
not
on
there.
So
just
to
note
that
one.
C
C
Right
now,
right
now:
okay,
I'll
get
with
Mr
Norris
on
that
tomorrow,
as
well.
Okay,.
B
E
C
C
Yes,
councilor
Michael,
Garcia,
Council
Villarreal,
yes,
chair
cast,
yes,
motion
passes.
B
Thank
you
so
much
moving
on
to
item
C
request
for
approval
of
a
budget
amendment
resolution
to
move
funds
from
fund
350
art,
4
CIP
to
fund
213
our
admin
in
the
amount
of
514
230
dollars
to
fund
various
arts
and
culture
initiatives.
Pauline
kamiyama
is
here
to
answer
our
questions:
Pauline
I'll,
just
let
you
the
reason
we
pulled
this
there
was.
B
E
G
All
right,
Madam,
chair
quality
of
life
committee
members
for
a
fiscal
year
23,
you
all-
were
generous
and
voted
in
our
budget
to
allocate
514
230
to
our
budget
and
so
I
need
to.
In
order
to
extend
that
I
need
to
move
from
the
revenue
account
into
an
expense
account.
My
original
request
that
I
presented
to
the
finance
committee
and
I
apologize.
It
was
out
of
order,
but
because
there's
only
two
governing
body
meetings
for
the
end
of
the
year.
I
needed
to
get
this
in.
Oh.
B
It's
a
bar,
so
it
actually
it's
only
legislation
that
has
to
go
in
order,
so
you
were
you're
not
out
of
order.
You're,
you're
right
on
time,
yeah.
G
Good,
so
I
had
allocated
a
request
to
put
a
hundred
thousand
for
chart,
because
I
knew
that
there
was
going
to
be
recommendations
and
or
things
that
departments
could
do.
G
Whether
it's
my
department
or
other
City
departments
that
we
can
partner
in
there
was
concern
raised
by
the
finance
committee
that
the
recommendations
have
not
been
made
yet
and
so
I'm
pulling
the
item
out
and
it
will
stay
in
the
revenue
account
until
which
time
there's
been
some
decisions
that
are
made
by
the
governing
body
and
that
we
can
leverage
that
hundred
thousand
with
the
monies
that
were
allocated
in
community
engagement
department
for
chart
and
I'm,
also
hoping
to
leverage
on
that
for
any
Grant
applications
and
also
I.
G
We
established
a
chart
fund
and
that
was
seated
ages
ago
by
the
Thornburg
Foundation
of
ten
thousand,
and
so
that
was
meant
to
be
a
public-private
partnership
and
I'm,
hoping
that
we
can
then,
once
the
recommendations
are
in
place,
use
that
to
reactivate
to
get
funding
so
I'm
looking
at
funding
at
different
sources,
but
at
least
that
we
have
funding
and
Community
engagement,
that
we
can
leverage
with
funding
from
the
aipp
money
and
so
I'm
withdrawing
that
from
the
request
and
we'll
come
back
to
you
all
later
on,
hopefully
early
next
year
or
spring,
and
it's
staying
in
the
revenue
account
will
roll
over.
B
Wonderful,
thank
you.
So
just
a
money
is
still
there.
The
money's
not
going
anywhere
we
are
just
not
moving
to
the
expenditure
account
until
governing
body,
has
really
made
decisions
on
how
to
move
forward
with
some
of
the
recommendations
for
chart
that
I'm
sure
that
is
correct.
Wonderful
I
have
some
other
questions
about
other
items,
but
while
we're
on
this
topic
any
questions
or
comments
from
members
of
the
committee
about
this
particular
change.
E
Thinking
about
it,
I
I
just
want
to
make
sure.
So.
With
that
change
the
pulling
indicated,
we
would
be
approving
414
230
for
this
bar
correct
and
then
my
other
question
was
at
the
governing
body
meeting.
Does
this
caption
have
to
be
updated
for.
B
Next
week,
I
believe
that
we
received
an
email
from
Aaron
saying
that
they
are
looking
into
that,
but
we
are
because
it
is
not
legislation.
We
are
still
within
the
time
frame
that
they'd
be
able
to
do
so,
but
yeah
they
have
that.
B
B
B
So
they
had
two
grants
of
ten
thousand
dollars
this
past
year
correct,
but
they
couldn't
decide
what
to
do
with
it.
So
then
was
it
spent,
or
is
that
part
of
the
50
that
we're
talking
about
here.
G
Now
so
Madam
chair
great
question
too
much
doubles
in
the
details,
but
it's
too
much.
It
made
sense.
In
my
mind,
sorry,
so
the
department
allocated
10
000
indiscretionary
funds
for
the
Arts
commission.
It
took
them,
it
was
really
challenging
for
them
to
come
together.
As
a
group,
we
had
some
new
Arts
Commissioners
and
we
also
had
some
vacancies
at
that
time.
G
A
few
months
later,
we
received
as
a
department,
supplemental
funding
and,
at
that
time,
I
requested
for
a
culture
connects
impact
fifteen
thousand,
so
that
would
be
three
grants
and
five
thousand
to
support
activities
specifically
on
the
south
side
of
town.
So
we
decided
as
a
way
to
model
how
a
process
to
disburse
funds
and
to
support
community
and
cultural
engagement.
We
leveraged
the
ten
thousand
from
them
for
the
Arts
commission
and
then
the
15
000
supplemental
and
the
arts
department.
G
That
is
something
that
can
be
renegotiated
in
the
bar
and
with
this
committing
governing
body
as
well
and
I'm,
also
suggesting
for
the
council
District
that
we
start
with
ten
thousand
discretionary
funds
to
see
how
you
and
your
co-counselor
would
want
to
support
cultural
investment
and
cultural
engagement.
That
amount
could
be
adjusted
as
well
and
so
I'm
here
to
take
input
and
make
recommendations
of
where
we
can
move
numbers
around
if
needed.
Wonderful.
B
Thank
you
and
I
think
it
would
be
helpful
to
hear,
at
least
for
me
about
the
what
was
achieved
with
those
five
grants
of
five
thousand
dollars
each.
And
can
you
tell
me
what
those
projects.
G
Were
Madam
chair
sure
first,
one
to
highlight
is
Kevin:
Allende
has
an
MC
school,
and
so
they
actually
did
a
large
event
at
the
South
Side
Library.
They
have
a
school
that
are
teaching
people
how
to
do
DJ
and
everything.
So
he
was
able
to
do
that
as
well
as
bring
in
other
vendors
to
be
there
to
help
support
that
movement.
G
So
that
was
one
way
to
support
that
our
youth
and
also
in
the
music
format,
so
not
just
Visual
Arts
another
one
was
Yvette
Serrano
and
Hernan
Gomez
Chavez,
who
were
finishing
up
their
project,
la
carencia,
which
is
storytelling,
and
so
they
were
connecting
stories
from
Espanola
and
for
those
in
south
side
and
they
did
event
I.
Believe
I,
don't
remember
the
name
of
the
facility,
but
they
did
a
like
a
potluck
event
there
and
shared
the
stories
that
they
learned
and
that's
a
continuation
of
their
program.
G
Then
we
had
Sage
bird
who
did
two
events:
art
activation
events
at
the
housing
projects
on
the
south
side,
and
that
was
really
successful
and
they
brought
in
music
and
art
making
and
different
different
artists.
So
that
was
a
really
great
event.
The
co-center
did
a
gardening
type
activation
and
I'm
for
oh
the
dance.
We
had
a
pop-up
dance
at
each
of
the
parks,
not
each
one
park
in
each
district.
B
G
Madam
chair,
that
is
correct.
We
did
a
request
for
proposals.
We
made
it
in
bilingual.
You
could
either
do
it
online
or
written
application,
and
we
try
to
make
it
as
easy
and
accessible
as
possible,
plus
these
had
to
be
initiated
rather
quickly
in
this
span
of
three
months.
So
we're
hoping
to
have
more
time.
The
Arts
Commissioners
may
decide
to
do
something
else,
that's
really
up
to
them
and
as
well
as
modeling
for
what
each
Council
District
would
like
to
do
and
support
themselves.
B
Okay,
wonderful
and
so
there's
ten
thousand
dollars
per
Council
District.
Do
you
guys
have
a
model
for
following
up?
Sometimes
we
get
money
allocated
to
us
and
then
we
forget
we
have
money
allocated
to
us.
Are
you
guys
going
to
be
reaching
out
to
each
Council
pair
to
start
this
discussion
soon,
Madam.
G
G
So
when
we
are
approved
because
I'm
thinking
positively
on
Wednesday
Thursday
I
will
send
out
an
email
notifying
each
Council,
District
pair,
that
this
is
an
opportunity
and
then
work
with
you
on.
You
come
up
with
the
ideas
and
what
you
want
to
do
and
we
will
figure
out
the
procurement
process,
okay,
and
how
to
carry
that
out.
All.
B
Right
and
if
a
council
District
wanted
to
do
some
Community
engagement
around
the
spending
of
these
funds,
is
that
something
that
you
all
would
be
able
to
support
us?
Or
would
we
want
to
be
working
with
the
community
engagement,
Department.
G
I'm
sure
that's
a
great
question
and
probably
it
could
be
a
combination
of
both
and
what
we
may
want
to
look
at
is
using
some
of
those
funds
to
hire
community
members
to
to
actually
lead
the
community
engagement
because
they're
already
in
the
communities
versus
my
staff
or
Community
engagement,
Department
staff.
So
there's
different
ways
around
how.
B
G
B
Thank
you
so
much
I
really
appreciate
it,
and
I
I
was
really
excited
to
see
these
dollars
District
District
by
District,
because
that's
you
know
something
you
and
I
have
discussed
a
few
times
about.
How
do
we
bring
more
of
these
programs
throughout
the
city?
So
thank
you
for
for
putting
this
in
there
and
being
willing
to
take
on
the
task
of
working
with
four
pairs
of
us
to
you
know
that'll
probably
be
slightly
different
processes
in
each
district,
so
I
know
that'll,
be
some
extra
work
for
you.
