B
All
right
good
evening,
everyone
and
welcome
back
to
our
late
august
meeting,
I
hope
everybody's
having
a
good
summer
under
the
circumstances
making
the
best
of
things
and
my
fellow
council
members
will
be
video
conferencing
in
this
evening,
as
they've
been
doing
for
the
last
few
months,
I'm
at
the
diocese
with
our
city
manager
drew
powers
and
our
city
attorney
tracy
noonan.
We
we're
about
eight
feet
apart,
so
we've
elected
to
not
go
with
the
mass,
but
we
are
certainly
conscious
of
of
the
situation.
B
So
with
that,
let
me
have
everyone
stand
for
the
pledge
of
allegiance.
Please.
C
B
E
B
And
I'm
here,
thank
you
all
right.
Well,
we
as
customary
we're
going
to
go
to
our
city
manager
to
give
us
a
covet,
19
update.
How
are
we
doing
on
that
watch
list
drew.
F
Hi
mayor
adam,
thank
you
just
a
quick
update
for
everyone,
since
we
last
met
in
in
early
july
and
I'm.
I
trust
that
our
residents
have
have
stayed
relatively
informed,
as
we've
gone
through
a
surge
of
cases
in
july
and
into
august
as
we
stand
today,
things
for
the
last
couple
of
weeks
have
been
trending
better
for
the
county,
as
of
today,
48
new
cases
are
being
reported.
So
that's
obviously
a
better
number
than
has
been
reported
recently.
F
The
watch
list
that
mayor
adam
referred
to
has
six
different
criteria
and
we
are
in
the
green,
clear
on
five
of
those
criteria
and
we
are
very
close
to
hopefully
getting
off
the
watch
list
for
the
final
criteria,
which
is
cases
per
100
000
population,
so
we're
closely
tracking
that
we
need
to
keep
the
caseload
by
day
under
60
cases
in
order
to
to
help
us
get
there.
Certainly
today's
numbers
will
will
help
with
that.
F
Unfortunately,
they
did
report
two
additional
deaths
today,
69
year
old,
female
and
an
86
year
old
male,
both
with
comorbidities
for
some
scale
and
context
that
we've
had
55
deaths
in
the
county.
Since
we
last
met
for
a
total,
so
we
have
a
total
of
105
deaths
now
in
the
county
since,
since
this
began
hard
to
believe
we're
in
the
sixth
month
of
of
this
now,
it's
certainly
been
presented
us
with
challenges.
F
We
had
never
never
fathomed,
organizationally
and
community
wise
and
for
our
businesses
and
our
residents
and
our
schools
and
our
parents,
but
at
every
turn
I
see
folks
with
a
spirit
of
creativity
with
trying
to
bring
positivity
to
bear
and
in
every
case
and
you'll
hear
later
tonight.
The
city
is
trying
our
very
best
to
do
things,
to
lend
support
and
assistance
where
we
can
and
recognize
the
huge
challenges
facing
all
of
those
in
thousand
oaks
and
beyond.
So.
A
B
Thank
you
drew,
and
the
city
naturally
extends
our
sincere
condolences
to
the
families
who
have
lost
loved
ones
to
covet.
19
is
a
very
unfortunate
situation
that
we
find
ourselves
in.
However,
as
drew
said,
everybody's
working
hard
to
stay
safe
and
the
numbers
seem
to
be
trending
downward.
If
I
could
ask
you,
a
question
drew
on
the
watch
list,
business
we're
five
out
of
six
criteria,
we're
in
the
green
now,
if,
if
we
do
come
off
the
watch
list,
what
are
the
ramifications
for
the
city.
F
So
I
wish
there
was
100
clarity
on
that.
There
was
actually
some
reporting
today
on
that
for
those
counties
that
have
come
off
the
watch
list.
For
instance,
orange
county,
came
off
the
watch
list.
Yesterday
I
saw
that
their
the
understanding
is
that
they're
going
to
need
to
remain
off
the
watch
list
for
some
period
of
time
before
the
state's
going
to
to
green
light,
the
reopening
of
various
business
sectors
that
were
closed
as
a
result
of
this,
and
that
includes
our
nail
salons,
our
gyms,
indoor,
dining
and
and
so
on.
F
So
it
appears
that
there's
going
to
have
to
be
these
counties
will
have
to
remain
off
the
list
for
a
period
of
time
to
demonstrate
some
stability
and
then
we'll
be
allowed
to
reopen
those
various
sectors,
we're
anticipating
additional
guidance
from
the
state
on
on
those
things
this
week,
perhaps
any
day
this
week,
and
that
should
give
us
more
clarity.
B
F
B
Very
good,
thank
you
all
right
and
we're
going
to
go
on
to
public
comments.
If
you'd
announced
that
please,
mrs
rodriguez.
D
This
is
a
time
and
place
for
public
comments
for
those
wishing
to
address
the
city
council
regarding
items
on
the
agenda
or
on
a
subject
within
the
city's
jurisdiction.
All
remarks
should
be
addressed
to
the
council
as
a
whole.
Speakers
are
requested
to
state
their
name
and
community
of
residents
for
the
record
under
state
law.
Public
comment
matters
may
not
be
considered
by
the
council
unless
listed
on
the
agenda,
but
may
be
referred
to
the
city
manager
for
administrative
follow-up.
B
E
E
This
award
recognizes
the
efforts
of
the
thousand
oaks
public
works
department
in
an
apwa
accredited
agency
to
continuously
improve
quality
of
life
for
its
constituents
by
eliminating
the
open
drainage
channel
and
replacing
it
with
an
enclosed
box
covert.
The
channel
is
less
susceptible
to
debris
in
standing
water,
thereby
reducing
the
risk
of
flooding,
odors
and
pests
such
as
mosquitoes
to
neighboring
properties.
E
This
project
could
not
have
been
successful
without
the
obvious
leadership
of
the
city,
council
and
city
manager,
or
the
expert
engineering
and
construction
management
of
the
city's
public
works
department
as
a
resident
of
thousand
oaks.
It
is
my
honor
to
congratulate
the
city
on
receiving
this
award
and
keep
up
the
good
work.
E
Thank
you,
mr
mayor
and
council
members,
adam
haverstock,
director
of
government
affairs
and
tourism
at
the
greater
canada
valley
chamber
of
commerce,
with
a
couple
updates
for
you.
The
first
one
I
wanted
to
mention
is
that
the
chamber
has
been
putting
together
boxes
of
ppe.
That's
personal
protective
equipment
with
disinfectant
wipes
and
hand
sanitizer
and
delivering
it
to
small
businesses
in
the
community.
E
The
ppe
in
the
boxes,
was
purchased
by
members
of
the
chambers,
chairman's
club
and
the
chamber
staff
distributed.
The
boxes.
Businesses
who
have
received
boxes
in
thousand
oaks
include:
barone's
pizza,
channel
islands,
scuba,
elegant
nails,
magnesium
oak
and
iron
petals,
and
pints
lazy,
dog
urban
plates
and
many
more.
We
are
currently
working
on
assembling
our
next
150
boxes
of
ppe
for
distribution
in
september.
E
We
wanted
to
say
thank
you
again
to
the
city
council
for
supporting
the
small
business
relief
fund.
So
far
to
date,
the
fund
has
distributed
68
thousand
dollars
to
35
small
businesses
within
the
city
of
thousand
oaks.
The
next
round
of
applications
are
open
now,
and
they
are
due
by
october
23rd
and
the
application
is
on
our
website
at
canehochamber.org.
E
E
Finally,
I
wanted
to
say
that
the
tourism
district
visit
canao
valley
welcomed
two
new
members
this
month,
the
courtyard
by
marriott,
inagora
hills
and
the
town
place
suites
by
marriott
inaugura
hills
both
opened
their
doors
this
month
and
that
increases
our
membership
of
our
tourism
district
to
16
hotels,
with
five
in
agora,
hills
and
11
000
oaks.
Thank
you.
If
you
have
any
questions,
let
me
know.
B
Thank
you.
Adam
good
report
appreciate
that
all
right
now
we'll
go
on
to
the
consent
calendar
anything
to
pull.
My
fellow
council
members.
B
If
hearing
nothing,
may
I
get
a
motion,
please
like
to.
G
B
All
right,
thank
you.
I'm
going
reorder
things
just
a
little
bit
here
and
I'd
like
to
go
with
the
council's
okay
on
that
to
the
attitude
survey.
First,
we
need
to
accommodate
dr
mclarney's
schedule.
B
So
that's
okay
with
everybody,
I'd
like
to
do
that
and
melissa
hurtado
is
going
to
be
presenting
and
I
believe
dr
mclarny
is
here
as
well.
Yes,
I
am
oh
there.
You
are.
I
Great
thank
you,
melissa
and
good
evening
mayor
members
of
council,
dr
mclaren,
a
president
true
north
research.
We
are
a
firm
that,
over
the
last
20
years,
has
specialized
in
working
with
california
cities
and
using
surveys
to
develop
a
statistically
reliable
understanding
of
the
communities
and
customers
that
they
serve
today.
My
business
partner
and
I
have
worked
on
over
a
thousand
research
studies
for
public
agencies
and
about
400
of
those
studies
are
what
we
call
community
satisfaction
surveys
similar
to
the
type
of
study
that
we'll
be
talking
about
tonight
here
for
a
thousand
oaks.
I
I
mentioned
that
level
of
experience,
mainly
because,
as
I
go
through
tonight's
presentation,
I
might
make
reference
to
how
the
results
we're
seeing
in
thousand
oaks
compared
to
what
we
might
typically
see
when
we
do
this
type
of
work
for
other
communities
in
other
cities,
and
I
want
you
to
have
a
sense
for
the
experience
base
from
which
I'd
be
speaking.
I
think
it's
also
worth
noting.
I
I've
had
the
privilege
of
being
the
city
of
thousand
oaks
research
partner
for
about
a
decade
and
you'll
see
that
in
some
of
the
slides
that
we'll
share
we're.
Not
only
sharing
the
results
of
the
2020
survey,
we
have
the
ability
to
also
go
back
in
some
cases
back
to
2009,
and
so
with
that
I
welcome
questions
from
council
as
I
go,
or
at
the
end,
whichever
is
your
preference
okay.
I
So
if
you
can
turn
the
slide
melissa
great
so
before
we
talk
about
the
results
of
the
study,
probably
helpful
to
take
a
moment
to
review
the
purpose
of
the
study
or
why
cities
do
this
type
of
work
as
well
as
the
methodology
or
how
we
went
about
conducting
the
study.
In
terms
of
the
purpose
of
the
of
these
studies,
I
see
them
really
as
following
into
two
camps.
I
One
is
community
needs
assessments,
meaning
using
the
survey
to
get
understanding
of
what
are
the
needs
and
priorities
and
preferences
of
your
residents
with
respect
to
the
services
and
facilities
that
are
provided
by
the
city
of
thousand
oaks
right.
The
flip
side
of
that
coin
is
really
the
satisfaction
piece
or
the
performance
measurement
piece.
How
well
is
the
city
performing
and
meeting
residents
needs
right.
Where
are
you
exceeding
their
expectations?
Where
are
you
meeting
their
expectations
and
where
might
there
be
some
opportunities
for
improvement
in
addition
to
those
two
sort
of
main
overarching
objectives?
I
I
That
will
help
the
city,
both
in
terms
of
your
general
plan
update,
but
also
in
sort
of
setting
policies
for
the
future.
The
survey
is
an
opportunity
to
gauge
how
well
the
city's
performing
in
in
communicating
with
residents
over
time
and
then
importantly,
because
we
have
the
ability
to
track
many
of
these
questions,
not
just
for
the
2020
survey,
but
also
back
in
time.
It's
an
opportunity
for
sort
of
for
us
to
see
sort
of
how
things
have
trended
over
time.
I
Oh
next
slide,
please.
So
in
terms
of
the
methodology
of
the
how
we
went
about
this
study,
we
used
what's
called
a
mixed
methodology
approach.
It
used
to
be
back
in
the
day
that,
in
order
to
assist
statistically
reliable
community
survey,
you
only
needed
one
thing:
you
needed
a
telephone
right,
you
needed
to
be
able
to
recruit
people
by
reaching
out
to
them
by
telephone,
because
everybody
had
a
landline.
I
Nobody
had
caller
id
and
you
could
get
a
representative
house
sort
of
sample
of
households
by
just
using
the
telephone
for
recruiting
a
data
collection
times
have
obviously
changed
a
lot
in
terms
of
the
rise
of
cell
phone
use.
The
rise
of
call
screening
right.
There
are
some
individuals
that,
even
if
you
have
their
correct
phone
number,
they're
not
going
to
answer
the
phone,
and
so
we
have
experimented
with
a
number
of
different
methodologies
and
we've
settled
in
on
what
we
call
the
mixed
method
approach.
I
Where
we're
using
multiple
recruiting
methods,
we
are
recruiting
by
mail
letters
email
as
well
as
telephone
right
for
households
that
are
randomly
sampled
as
part
of
our
study
and
we're
also
allowing
residents
the
opportunity
to
participate
either
by
telephone
or
online
at
a
password
protected
website
and
by
using
multiple
recruiting
methods
and
multiple
data
collection
methods.
It
allows
us
to
get
a
more
representative
sample
of
your
residence.
It
reduces
response
bias,
it
increases
the
response
rate
and
ultimately,
it
improves
the
overall
reliability
of
the
study.
I
We
wound
up
speaking
this
year
to
a
random
sample
of
690,
so
almost
700
000
oaks
residents.
These
are
all
adults,
that's
a
bit
more
than
we
have
traditionally
surveyed
in
the
community
in
the
past
in
part,
because
we
wanted
to
have
higher
degree
of
statistical
reliability
for
this
survey
because
it's
going
to
be
feeding
to
some
extent
into
the
general
plan.
I
Now,
because
this
was
a
random
sample
of
adult
residents
in
the
community
and
not
a
census
of
every
adult,
it
has
what's
known
as
a
margin
of
error
due
to
sampling,
in
this
case
that's
plus
or
minus
3.7
percent.
What
that
means
is
we
can
be
95,
confident
that
the
results
we'll
be
talking
about
tonight
are
within
3.7
of
what
we
would
have
found
had
we
spoken
with
all
of
your
adult
residents.
I
Next
slide,
please,
okay
onto
the
results,
so
we
opened
up
a
survey
with
some
high
level
questions,
the
first
of
which
is.
How
would
you
rate
the
overall
quality
of
life
in
thousand
oaks?
Would
you
say
it
is
excellent?
Good,
fair,
poor
or
very
poor,
shown
here
on
this
on
the
screen
is
the
answers
on
the
far
left
in
2020,
as
well
as
the
answers
in
prior
years.
What
you
see
here
in
2020
is
you
have
94
percent
of
your
residents
rate
the
quality
of
life
in
the
community
as
excellent
or
good?
I
You
had
about
five
percent,
who
said
fair
and
a
very
small
percentage,
less
than
one
percent
who
said
poor,
very
poor.
They
were
not
sure
in
looking
at
these
results
over
time.
One
of
the
things
that
is
so
striking
to
me
is,
you
know,
considering
everything
that
has
happened
in
the
city
since
2017
right,
so
currently
we're
living
in
a
pandemic.
I
You've
had
the
impacts
of
that
on
the
daily
life
of
residents.
You've
had
the
impacts
of
that
on
the
city's
normal
operations.
We
have
an
economic
downturn,
we
have
the
shuttering
and
non-essential
businesses,
so
we
have
that
malaise
happening
currently
and
for
the
last
six
months,
as
drew
mentioned
at
the
outset
of
the
interview.
But
if
you
go
back
in
time
a
little
bit
more,
you
also
had
a
mass
shooting.
I
You
had
a
large-scale
wildfires
that
impacted
the
community
in
a
devastating
way,
and
so
it
has
been
a
difficult
few
years
right
for
the
city
to
be
able
to
operate
in
and
yet
and
for
residents
experiencing
all
this.
And
yet,
when
you
compare
the
2020
results
to
the
2017
results,
you
see
almost
identical
answers
right.
That
was
unexpected
to
me.
I
I
with
with
that
background
I
just
mentioned.
I
I
was
expecting
that
we'd
see
some
dips
in
the
survey
results
this
cycle,
and
you
see
here
on
this
side
as
well
as
a
few
others,
that
those
dips
really
didn't
occur,
and
what
that
is
impressive
is
that
how
sort
of
resilient
residents
opinions
are
about
their
community
and
the
quality
of
life
there
and
how
hard?
I
think
the
city
has
worked
sort
of
swimming
upstream
against
some
of
these
large
forces.
I
That,
naturally,
would
want
to
sort
of
press
down
people's
their
performance
and
and
residents
views
of
the
city,
and
so
it's
impressive
to
see
that
that
the
stability
in
those
results
over
time
next
slide
please.
I
So
after
we
asked
individuals
to
tell
us
to
rate
the
overall
quality
of
life
in
the
community,
we
went
on
to
ask
them
if
the
city
government
could
change
one
thing
to
make
thousand
oaks
a
better
place
to
live
now
and
in
the
future.
What
change
would
you
like
to
see?
This
question
is
what
we
call
an
open-ended
question,
meaning
we
just
ask
the
question
and
we
let
respondents
tell
us
in
their
own
words,
what
change
they'd
like
the
city
to
make
to
improve
the
quality
of
life
in
the
community.
I
We
then
went
back
and
looked
at
those
verbatim
responses
and
we
group
them
into
the
categories
you
see
here
on
the
slide
and
at
the
top
of
the
list.
What
you
see
is
limiting
growth
and
development
and
open
space.
You
had
about
15
who
mentioned
that
the
next
two
kind
of
go
together.
You
had
15
percent,
who
said
not
sure,
can't
think
of
anything,
and
you
had
another
12
percent
who
said
no
changes
are
needed.
Everything
is
fine.
I
So
that's
wonderful
in
addition
to
the
limiting
growth
and
preserving
open
space
top.
You
also
saw
references
to
addressing
the
homeless
issue
about
11
you'll,
see
later
in
this
presentation,
we
have
a
number
of
questions
and
slides
on
on
that
topic,
as
well
as
that
increasing
recreational
facilities
and
programs,
improving
public
safety,
reducing
traffic
congestion,
so
those
are
sort
of
the
top
answers.
When
you
ask
folks
in
an
open-ended
manner,
what
change
the
city
government
can
make
to
improve
the
quality
of
life
in
thousand
oaks
next
slide,
please.
I
So
this
next
slide
shows
the
responses
to
what,
in
some
ways
is
probably
the
most
important
question
in
the
survey
from
a
performance
management
perspective
and
it's
the
results
to
the
question.
Generally
speaking,
are
you
satisfied
or
dissatisfied
with
a
job?
The
city
of
thousand
oaks
is
doing
to
provide
city
services
right
because
we're
not
asking
about
a
specific
service
area,
and
we
ask
them
to
comment
on
the
city's
performance
overall.
I
It
can
be
considered
an
overall
performance
rating
for
the
city
here
again
with
everything:
that's
happened
in
the
past
two
three
years
and
with
the
city
having
to
function
in
you
know
in
a
in
sort
of
a
difficult
scenario
with
the
pandemic,
I
was
expecting
that
we'd
see
some
declines
in
the
results
and
what
we
find
is
in
fact
that
the
2020
results
are
nearly
identical.
The
2017
results
right.
I
I
can
also
say
that
not
shown
here,
but
in
the
full
report
we
break
this
down
by
all
sorts
of
demographics
in
the
community
and
the
high
level
of
satisfaction
you
see
here
is
played
out
across
all
sorts
of
subgroups
so
by
age,
gender.
How
long
they've
lived
in
the
city?
Do
they
have
a
child
in
the
home?
Those
types
of
questions
we
saw
consistent
levels
of
high
satisfaction
next
slide,
please
so
that
last
slide
talked
about
the
city's
overall
performance
in
providing
municipal
services
in
the
next
two
slides.
I
What
we
did
is
we
sort
of
dove
deeper
and
broke
that
down
into
a
whole
list
of
specific
service
areas
and
there
it
was
sort
of
two-part
question.
First
question
which
you
see
here
on
this
slide
was
simply
asking
individuals
to
tell
us
how
important
are
these
various
services
to
you?
Are
they
extremely
important
or
very
important,
which
are
represented
by
the
dark,
blue
and
medium
blue
bars?
Are
they
somewhat
important
or
not
at
all
important,
that's
represented
by
the
negative
space
off
to
the
right?
I
We
ask
these
in
a
randomized
order
for
every
respondent,
but
we
have
sorted
them
from
high
to
low
here,
based
on
that
combined
percentage
of
folks
who
said
it's
either
extremely
or
very
important
to
them.
What
you
find
here
in
thousand
oaks
is
what
we
typically
find
in
most
cities
that
when
you
ask
about
the
importance
of
all
the
things
that
cities
do,
public
safety
and
public
works
tend
to
rise
to
the
top
of
the
list
right.
I
So
at
the
top
of
the
list,
we
have
providing
fire
protection,
emergency
medical
services,
followed
by
maintaining
city
streets
and
roads,
providing
police
services
and
on
down,
as
you
get
towards
the
bottom
of
the
list,
you
tend
to
get
into
some
service
areas
that
isn't
that
they
aren't
valued,
but
that
when
you
stack
them
up
against
things
like
public
safety
and
public
works,
they
tend
to
be
viewed
as
somewhat
less
of
a
priority.
I
So
things
like
providing
cultural
performing
arts
and
live
entertainment
or
protecting
oaks
and
landmark
trees
and
providing
recreation
programs
for
all
ages
again,
not
that
they're
not
important,
but
it
just
gives
you
a
sense
of
the
relative
importance
that
residents
assign
to
various
services
next
slide.
Please
same
exact
list
of
services.
Only
now
we've
asked
the
second
part
of
this
question,
which
is
how
satisfied
are
you
with
the
city's
efforts
to
provide
these
services?
Would
you
say
you
are?
I
You
are
very
satisfied
or
somewhat
satisfied,
which
is
the
dark,
green
bar
and
light
green
bars.
Are
you
you
know,
dissatisfied
somewhat
or
very
or
do
not
know,
and
what
you
see
here
is
again.
These
were
asked
in
a
randomized
order,
but
we
sorted
them
from
high
to
low,
based
on
that
combined
percentage
of
folks
said
they
were
satisfied.
I
What's
striking
about
this
slide?
Is
that
even
at
the
low
end
of
the
scale
right,
even
at
the
for
the
services
that
tested
at
the
bottom,
you
have
70
support?
I
mean
70
percent
of
residents
say
that
they
are
satisfied
with
the
city's
efforts
to
do
this
so
managing
traffic
congestion
in
the
city,
for
example,
group
managing
growth
and
development
and
promoting
economic
development
for
a
healthy
business
community.
I
At
the
top
of
the
list,
though,
you
see
a
number
of
services
that
are
above
the
90
satisfaction
range,
that's
providing
library,
services,
providing
fire
protection,
emergency
medical
services
and
maintaining
park
areas.
One
thing
I
will
point
out
is
that
that
item
at
the
very
bottom
of
the
list
managing
traffic
congestion
in
the
city,
although
it's
still
at
the
bottom
of
the
list,
we
saw
a
nine
percent
improvement
in
satisfaction
with
the
city's
efforts
in
this
area
between
2017
and
2020.
I
Right,
so
satisfaction
has
increased
for
that
item
still
at
the
bottom
of
the
list,
but
you're
making
you're
making
strides
so
next
slide.
I
Please
one
of
the
there
are
a
series
of
questions
that
were
new
to
the
2020
survey
in
part,
because
the
city's
going
through
a
general
plan
update-
and
we
thought
we
might
as
well
use
a
portion
of
the
survey
to
help
inform
some
of
the
decisions
that
we've
made
with
that
update,
and
so
one
of
those
questions
you
see
the
results
to
here,
which
simply
asks
individuals
after
informing
them
that
the
city
is
going
through.
I
A
general
plan
update
that's
going
to
affect
the
quality
of
life
in
the
city
on
issues
like
land
use,
housing
and
the
types
of
businesses
and
amenities
that
are
available
locally.
We
ask
them
to
tell
us
for
each
of
the
amen
land
uses
and
amenities
shown
in
that
slide.
Do
they
feel
there's
currently
too
little
of
this
in
thousand
oaks?
Is
it
about
the
right
amount,
or
is
it
too
much,
and
you
can
see
that
for
many
of
the
items
we
tested?
The
dominant
answer
is
it's
about
right
right?
I
So
if
you
look
at,
for
example,
restaurants,
which
is
four
up
from
the
bottom,
you
know
we
had
about
two-thirds
of
folks
say
that
the
amount
of
restaurants
in
the
community
is
about
right.
Yet
about
six
percent.
Who
said
there's
not
enough,
and
you
had
about
twenty
four
percent.
I
mean
sorry,
six
percent,
who
said
there's
too
many
and
about
twenty
four
percent,
who
said
there's
not
enough
restaurants,
what's
interesting
in
thousand
oaks,
which
you
don't
often
see
is
if
you
get
at
the
very
top
of
the
list.
I
The
top
four
items
there
that
had
the
highest
percentage
of
residents
say
that
there's
not
enough
of
this
in
the
city
all
pertain
to
affordable
housing
right
so
affordable,
housing
for
middle-income
families,
affordable
housing
for
low-income
families,
affordable
housing
for
very
low
income
families,
as
well
as
affordable
housing
for
seniors.
So
clearly,
there's
an
appetite
in
the
community
for
more
affordable
housing.
I
We
also
saw
that
there
was
perceived
efficiencies
and
good
paying
jobs
and
employment
opportunities,
as
well
as
smaller
boutique
retail
stores,
by
about
35
or
so
of
your
residents.
So
this
gives
you
an
idea
of
kind
of
when
you
look
across
the
city
and
you're
thinking
about
land
use
for
the
future,
where
what
are
types
of
developments
that
residents
see
a
need
for
and
what
are
some
that
maybe
they
feel
like.
We've
already
got
plenty,
and
we
don't
need
more
next
slide,
please.
I
So,
as
we
saw
on
that
prior
slide,
there
was
a
perceived
need
for
additional,
affordable
housing,
recognizing
also
as
you're
going
through
a
general
plan
that
there
will
be
california.
State
law
requires
that
all
cities
plan
for
additional
housing
and
as
part
of
the
regional
housing
needs
allocation.
I
It's
expected
that
the
state
is
going
to
require
the
city
of
thousand
oaks
to
plan
for
several
thousand
new
units
of
housing.
Right,
like
many
cities
in
the
state,
you're
going
to
be
told,
you
have
to
be
able
to
plan
for
these
for
this
additional
housing.
So
with
that
in
mind,
we
took
an
opportunity
in
the
survey
to
get
a
sense
for
how
residents
would
like
the
city
to
accommodate
that
new
housing.
I
So
after
explaining
what
I
just
did
now
about
the
the
need
to
accommodate
new
housing
according
to
state
law,
we
asked
residents
a
couple
different
questions.
The
first
simply
ask
them:
would
they
prefer
that
these
new
homes
be
concentrated
in
fewer
larger
developments
and
located
in
areas
of
the
city
that
are
close
to
transit
stores
and
restaurants?
I
In
other
words,
you
know,
as
we
accommodate
these
new
units
we'd
rather
concentrate
them
in
these
areas,
or
should
they
be
spread
out
throughout
the
city
by
having
smaller
infill
projects
and
allowing
for
more
housing
units
per
parcel
within
existing
residential
areas?
So
do
we
concentrate
these
new
units
or
do
we
spread
them
out
throughout
the
city?
I
And
what
you
see
here
on
the
slide
is
that
you
have
a
mix
of
opinions
on
that,
but
that
in
general
there
is
a
bit
of
a
lean
in
favor
of
concentrating
these
new
developments
or
these
new
units
in
larger
developments,
as
opposed
to
spreading
them
out
throughout
the
city,
yet
about
51,
who
prefer
to
concentrate
them
about
41
percent,
who
prefer
to
spread
them
out
through
the
city.
I
Next
slide
continuing
with
the
questioning
on
additional
housing,
we
also
asked
you
know
what
types
of
housing
do
you
think
these
additional
units
should
be?
Should
they
be
mostly
town,
homes,
tripexes
and
fourplexes?
Should
it
be
mostly
condominiums
and
apartments,
or
should
they
be
an
even
mix
of
townhomes,
condos
and
apartments?
And
what
you
see
here
is
a
pretty
clear
preference
for
an
even
mix
you
had
58.
59
percent
of
respondents
say
that
they
prefer
to
even
mix
just
six
percent
said:
I'd
prefer
mostly
condos
and
apartments.
I
Next
slide,
please
so
prior
to
the
arrival
of
kovid,
which
seems
like
an
eternity
ago
for
many
people,
but
I
can
remember
that
period
of
time-
and
I
did
this
type
of
surveys
in
a
lot
of
communities
around
california
and
what
you'd
seen
is
that
the
issue
of
homelessness
was
often
at
the
top
of
the
list
of
what
residents
felt
was
the
most
pressing
problem
or
most
pressing
issue
in
their
community
right
back
in
2016.
Homelessness
was
barely
a
bullet
when
you
do
these
types
of
surveys.
I
I
Please,
we
went
on
then
to
ask
to
present
them
with
a
series
of
statements
about
homeless
people
and
with
the
idea
we
wanted
to
profile
what
residents
attitudes
were
about
homeless
individuals
and
so
for.
Each
of
those
statements
you
see
on
the
slide
simply
asks
us
to
tell
ask
them
to
tell
us
whether
they
agree
or
disagree
with
the
statement,
and
the
statements
themselves
are
purposely
pointed
right,
meaning
we
were
trying
to
make
strong
statements
either
positive
or
negative
about
homeless
individuals,
because
we
want
to
get
a
sense
of
where
residents
lie
on
this.
I
Spectrum
of
you
know
generally
negative
views
of
homeless
people
neutral
or
mixed
views
and
positive
views
of
homeless
people,
because
we
know
that
that
often
is
the
foundation
of
explaining
the
types
of
policies
that
residents
are
willing
to
support
right.
If
you
have
a
negative
opinion
of
homeless
people,
you
tend
to
lean
towards
certain
types
of
policies
and
not
others.
You
have
a
positive
opinion.
I
You
lean
towards
different
ones,
and
so
we
wanted
to
first
profile
the
attitudes
in
the
community,
and
what
you
see
here
is
a
is
a
in
the
aggregate,
a
little
bit
of
a
mix
of
opinions
right.
We
had
a
lot
of
agreements
60
about
65
or
so
who
said
most
homeless.
People
are
good
people,
but
they've
fallen
on
hard
times
right
right
behind
that,
though,
you
have
a
similar
level
of
agreement
or
slightly
less
to
homeless.
People
represent
a
threat
to
public
health
right.
Third,
one
on
the
list.
I
With
a
little
bit
of
help,
many
homeless
people
can
ba
get
back
on
their
feet
right.
You
had
just
under
60
agree
with
that
and
at
the
bottom,
yet
about
40
percent
is
that
homeless.
People
are
more
dangerous
than
the
average
person,
so
in
the
aggregate
it
seems
like
it's
a
little
bit
of
a
of
a
split
mindset
here,
right,
we're
getting
high
levels
of
agreement
for
some
negative
statements
and
we're
getting
some
high
levels
of
agreement
for
some
positive
statements.
I
In
one
group
and
which
policies
find
broad
agreement,
regardless
of
how
people
view
homeless,
individuals,
and
so
what
we
did,
is
we
presented
them
with
a
series
of
strategies.
You
see
there
on
the
left
side
of
that
slide
and
we
simply
ask
them
whether
they
would
support
or
oppose
the
city
taking
this
action
in
addressing
homelessness,
and
you
can
see
that
some
strategies
are
more
widely
supported
than
others.
I
So
providing
funding
for
mental
health
services
was
at
the
top
of
the
list
that
found
the
strongest
support,
along
with
providing
funding
for
counseling
and
rehab
for
drug
and
alcohol
addiction,
as
well
as
then
joining
with
other
cities
in
the
county
to
create
more
regional
homeless
shelters.
What
is
striking
about
these
three
strategies
is
it's
not
just
that
they
found
high
levels
of
support
overall,
that
even
within
when
you
look
at
it
by
the
different
groups,
generally
positive,
neutral
or
negative
opinions
of
homeless
people.
I
We
have
at
least
two-thirds
of
individuals
and
every
one
of
those
groups
support
these
strategies
as
well.
So
they
are
consensus
strategies.
These
are
things
that,
regardless
of
how
you
feel
about
homeless
people,
you
can
support
that
type
of
strategy.
As
you
move
down
the
list,
you
start
to
get
into
strategies
that
start
to
be
a
little
more
divisive,
depending
on
how
you
view
homeless
individuals,
so
enhancing
lighting
in
public
areas
to
discourage
people
from
using
these
areas
to
sleep.
I
If
you
have
a
negative
view
of
homeless
people,
you
tend
to
have
a
stronger
level
support
for
that
policy.
If
you
have
a
positive
view
of
homeless
people,
you
tend
to
have
a
lower
level
of
support
for
that
policy
and
on
down
next
slide.
Please
now
the
city
of
thousand
oaks
has
a
limited
budget
and
probably
a
seemingly
unlimited
list
of
things
that
they
could
spend
that
money
on
right
and
demands
on
that
budget
and
so
city.
I
A
thousand
looks
like
all
cities
has
to
prioritize
and
decide
what
are
we
gonna
fund
and
what
do
we
just
not
can't
fund,
because
we
don't
have
a
budget
so
to
help
the
city
in
that
exercise
of
prioritizing.
I
We
also
asked
individuals
in
the
survey
to
tell
us
what
priorities
they
would
place
on.
Each
of
the
items
you
see
there
on
that
slide,
which
are
potential
uses
of
city
funds
in
the
future
and
so
for
each
one.
We
simply
said:
should
this
be
a
high
priority,
a
medium
priority
or
a
low
priority
for
future
city
funding?
I
Or
should
the
cities
not
spend
any
money
on
this
item
here
again,
these
were
presented
in
the
random
order,
but
we've
sorted
them
from
high
to
low,
based
on
a
combined
percentage
of
folks
who
said
a
high
priority
and
medium
priority
at
the
top
of
the
list.
You
see
maintaining
fire
protection
services
right
at
the
highest
priority.
I
mean
you
had
over
95
say
it's
a
high.
It's
a
higher
medium
priority,
followed
by
maintaining
parks
and
recreation
facilities,
investing
in
road
maintenance
and
maintaining
police
services.
I
I
I
want
to
emphasize
that,
if
just
because
something's
towards
the
bottom
of
the
list,
in
this
case,
expanding
and
improving
their
local
trail
system
doesn't
mean
residents,
don't
want
that
right.
They
do
it's
just
that
when,
in
the
nature
of
this
question,
we're
kind
of
forcing
their
hand
we're
telling
them
that
not
everything
can
be
a
high
priority,
you're
going
to
have
to
make
choices
here,
and
so,
when
push
comes
to
shove,
the
public
safety
and
public
work
items
tend
to
rise
more
to
the
top
of
the
list.
I
Next
slide,
please,
in
addition
to
asking
a
lot
of
questions
about
city
services
and
policies,
we
also
got
into
questions
about
local
governance
and
as
well
as
customer
service,
and
so
we
asked
individuals
on
this
slide
to
tell
us.
I
You
know,
for
each
of
these
items,
tell
me
how
good
a
job
you
think
the
city
of
thousand
oaks
is
doing.
Would
you
say
the
city
does
an
excellent
good,
fair
for
a
very
poor
job
in
this
area
and
across
the
board.
We
have
majorities
say
that
the
city
is
doing
an
excellent
or
good
job
in
each
one
of
these,
at
the
top
of
the
list,
though,
providing
access
to
information
followed
by
working
through
critical
issues
facing
the
city,
engaging
with
residents
to
get
their
feedback
and
then
being
responsive
to
residents
and
businesses.
I
These
were
your
top
four
these.
By
the
way
we
looked
at
how
these
compared
to
2017,
and
what
we
found
is
that
they're
very
stable.
We
didn't
find
any
statistically
significant
differences
between
where
we
were
in
2017
and
where
we
are
today.
Despite
again,
everything
that's
gone
on
and
the
challenges
the
city
has
faced
during
this
period.
I
This
is
down
a
little
bit
from
2017,
but
that's
to
be
expected,
since
a
fair
amount
of
the
last
year
has
been
spent
in
this
very
weird,
an
unfortunate
covet
and
pandemic
situation,
which
has
sort
of
altered
the
way
the
city
is,
can
you
know
interact
with
residents
so
about
30
percent
had
reported
that
personal
interaction
when
we
went
on
to
ask
those
individuals
to
rate
city
staff
in
terms
of
their
helpfulness,
professionalism
and
accessibility,
what
we
found
is
got
really
high
marks
across
the
board
better
than
90
percent,
indicating
that
staff
is
very
somewhat
professional,
helpful
and
accessible.
I
So
again,
despite
the
fact
that
you
know
there's
so
much
that's
been
going
on
in
the
background,
that's
been
a
challenge
in
the
city
and
that
the
city
is
having
to
operate
in
this
pandemic
scenario,
we're
finding
that
residents
views
of
staff
in
terms
of
their
helpfulness,
professionalism,
accessibility
have
actually
gone
up
a
bit
next
slide.
I
I
It
used
to
be
back
in
the
day
that
you
know
we
all
kind
of
turned
to
the
same
newspapers
and
the
same
tv
shows
and
radio
shows,
and
so
it
was
comparatively
easy
for
a
public
agency
to
get
their
message
out
to
residents,
because
you
knew
there
were
three
or
four
channels
that
you
had
to
be
in
and
pretty
much
covered
everybody.
I
Obviously
that
has
changed
dramatically
over
the
last
eight
years
with
the
rise
of
the
internet
and
social
media,
everybody
seems
to
get
their
news
through
different
avenues
these
days
and
it
just
becomes
harder
to
reach
individuals
in
that
environment.
I
think
it's
also
the
case
that
you
know,
as
we've
come
to
learn
that
the
moment
we
want
to
know
anything.
We
just
reach
in
our
pocket,
grab
out
our
cell
phone
and
get
the
answer
that
the
timeliness
expectations
have
gone
up
as
well
right.
I
The
expectations
of
how
to
people
are
communicated
with
from
public
agencies
kind
of
gone
up
and
so
against
this
sort
of
shifting
ground
over
time.
What
has
happened
in
general
is
that
city
resident
or
or
satisfaction
with
city
resident
communications
has
kind
of
trickled
downstream
a
bit
and
what's
encouraging
about
2020.
As
you
see,
these
numbers
here
is
that
the
city
of
thousand
oaks
in
the
last
three
years
has
sort
of
reversed.
This
trend
right
and
you
see
that
between
2009
and
2017
there
was
a
sort
of
step
down
effect
that
was
happening
again.
I
I
saw
that
same
sort
of
staircase
effect
happening
just
about
every
city
that
I
worked
with
during
the
same
period,
but
in
2020.
Instead
of
continuing
that
sort
of
step
down,
the
city
has
actually
gained
some
ground
back
in
terms
of
resident
satisfaction
where
the
city's
efforts
communicate
with
residents
next
slide,
please
in
terms
of
where
individuals
reported
that
they're
getting
their
news
about
a
thousand
oaks
news,
services,
programs
and
events.
You
see
here,
we
gave
them
up
to
three
responses
to
this
question
top
of
the
scale
there.
I
The
acorn
did
about
65
percent,
who
mentioned
that
they
turned
to
the
acorn
for
thousand
oaks
news
events,
programs
followed
by
next
door
at
26,
social
media
like
facebook,
twitter,
instagram,
25
and
then
the
vertura
county
star
at
about
22
and
on
down.
I
Like
I
mentioned
the
last
slide
that
we've
seen
a
lot
of
changes
in
that
over
time.
We've
also
seen
a
lot
of
changes
in
the
information
sources
that
people
turn
to
for
local
news
and
events
right,
and
so
those
two
things
go
hand
in
hand
next
slide,
please.
I
So
we
are
through
the
graphic
portion
of
the
presentation.
I
just
have
a
couple
wrap-up
slides
that
I
want
to
share
with
you
and
then
I
welcome
questions
from
council.
If
there
are
any
so
you
know,
I
think
the
the
obvious
takeaway
to
me.
Right
and
again,
I
have
the
benefit
and
the
perspective
of
doing
this
for
a
lot
of
cities.
I
More
than
400
of
these
studies
over
the
years
is
that
you
know,
despite
again
what
has
been
a
very
challenging
last
couple
of
years
with
the
wildfires,
the
mass
shooting
and
the
pandemic,
the
city
of
thousand
oak
has
been
able
to
maintain
a
high
level
of
service
to
residents
and
that
residents,
views
of
the
city
and
their
community
remain
high.
We
saw
that,
in
the
opinion
of
the
overall
quality
of
life
in
the
city,
94
percent
rating
is
excellent
or
good.
I
We
saw
that
when
you
looked
at
it
at
the
individual
service
level,
a
lot
of
stability
in
those
and
that
the
city
has
also
gotten
some
traction
in
certain
service
areas
and
improved
satisfaction,
namely
with
respect
to
managing
traffic
congestion
in
the
city,
and
so
you
know,
when
you
take
all
that
in
and
again
you
consider
it
against
the
backdrop
of
everything.
That's
happened
the
past
two
years.
I
This
is
an
excellent
report
card
right
I
mean
this
is
what
you're
hoping
to
find
and
again
I
was
a
bit
surprised
because
I
was
expecting
things
perhaps
to
take
down
a
touch
with
all
those
challenges,
and
so
you
know,
I
think
this
is
really
a
a
great
report
card
on
the
city
leadership
right.
It
takes
good
leadership
to
make
that
happen.
I
It
also
is
a
great
report
card
on
the
city,
staff's
performance
and
executing
on
a
day-to-day
basis
for
residents,
and
I
also
want
to
point
out
that
you
know
when
you
get
results
like
this.
This
is
these
don't
happen
by
accident
right.
I
These
are
not
given
these
are
earned,
and
I
can
promise
you
that
if
you
as
a
city
were
not
performing
well,
residents
are
very
quick
to
let
you
know
that
in
the
space
of
this
survey
right
and
so
the
fact
that
your
numbers
have
remained
high
over
time
is
is
impressive
and
you
know
it
should
be.
You
know
you
should
be
proud
of
that
now,
like
any
customer
satisfaction
survey,
so
to
speak,
you
should
not
just
be
looking
at
say.
I
How
are
we
doing
today,
but
also
looking
to
the
future,
where
there
are
opportunities
for
where
we
can
improve
right
and
when
you
look
at
the
survey
results
in
their
in
their
totality?
I
think
there
are
some
some
areas
that
you
know
are
clearly
important
to
residents
and
they'd
like
to
see
some
level
of
improvement,
managing
growth
and
development
and
protecting
open
space
is
a
top
priority
for
them:
managing
traffic
congestion
in
the
city,
promoting
economic
development,
maintaining
streets
and
roads,
addressing
homelessness
and
then
maintaining
funding
for
fire
protection
and
police
services.
I
Those
are
kind
of
the
bullets
where
we
that
were
priorities
for
residents
and-
and
I
think,
should
be
perhaps
opportunity
areas
to
the
extent
that
the
city
has
discretionary
resources
looking
in
the
future
next
slide.
Please-
and
finally,
you
know
the
survey
here
did
provide
some
clear
feedback
on
some
policy
questions
that
the
city
is
going
to
be
facing
in
your
general
plan
and
elsewhere.
I
I
think
that
there's
there's
broad
recognition
that
there's
a
lack
of
affordable
housing
in
the
community.
Right,
particularly
you
know
not
just
for
very
low
income,
but
even
middle
income
and
seniors.
I
There's
sort
of
you
know
a
perception
that
there's
there's
not
enough
of
that
for
many
or
many
respondents
in
terms
of
how
you
accommodate
new
housing,
whether
that's,
affordable
or
not,
based
on
the
regional
housing
needs
allocation,
there's
a
preference
for
sort
of
there's
a
leaning
preference
towards
concentrating
those
new
units
as
opposed
to
spreading
them
throughout
the
city.
I
That
doesn't
mean
you
necessarily
have
to
do
one
strategy
or
the
other,
but
it
gives
you
a
sense
of
where
your
community
leans,
and
we
also
found
that
most
respondents
favored
a
mix
of
housing
types.
They
don't
want
just
to
see
all
apartments
or
all
condos,
for
example,
we're
all
town
homes.
They
think
that
should
be
a
balanced
mix
of
those
those
options
and
then,
finally,
on
homelessness.
I
Like
you
know,
most
communities,
we
survey,
there's
been
a
perceived
increase
of
homelessness
in
the
city
from
your
residents
perspective,
but
we
did
find
that
there
was
a
lot
of
consensus
on
a
few
of
the
strategies
the
city
considered
or
could
consider
for
for
addressing
homelessness
in
the
future.
Providing
funding
for
mental
health
services
counseling
for
alcohol
and
drug
addiction,
as
well
as
joining
with
other
cities
in
the
county,
to
create
more
regional
housing,
shelters
right.
I
B
Solid,
a
very
good
that
is
good
to
hear
I'm
especially
impressed
as
far
as
our
381
employees
of
the
city
and
how
well
they
have
been
performing
9
out
of
10
rated
helpful
professional
accessible.
I
mean
they
are
the
face
of
our
city,
and
that
is
a
wonderful
thing
to
know
that
there's
such
a
huge
responsiveness
with
our
city
employees
such
a
great
morale,
especially,
as
you
said
in
the
context
of
all
the
challenges
that
we're
facing
I'm
very,
very,
very
happy
to
hear
that.
B
Well,
I'll,
tell
you
what
why
don't
we,
mr
mayer,
follow
me
yeah!
Oh,
go
ahead,
drew
certainly.
F
Just
to
put
a
a
quick
point
on
doc,
dr
mccartney's
comments
and
melissa
hurtado
was
overseeing
this
project.
F
Just
as
a
as
an
aside
the
question
around
managing
traffic
congestion
in
our
city,
the
council
clearly
saw
that
note
in
past
years
and
has
made
significant
investments
in
flashing
yellow
signals
throughout
the
community
in
over
18
million
dollars
in
street
and
road
investment
over
that
period
of
time
and
and
the
numbers
bear
out
those
investments
that
the
public
is
recognizing
at
a
nine
percentage
point
jump
is,
is
significant,
and
so
it's
just
one
example
of
how
our
department
heads
and
our
leadership
team
and
managers
within
the
organization
utilize
this
data
to
help
make
decisions.
F
B
Thank
you
drew
yeah,
we
as
a
city,
we
need
to
listen
and
we
need
to
respond,
and
I
think,
as
council
members,
I
know
we
all
get
emails
from
our
constituents
and
we
all
follow
up
with
those
emails
to
make
sure
that
they're
answered
and
people
are
satisfied,
and
I
think
the
results
show
in
the
survey
and
I'm
also
happy
that
the
survey
is
being
done
now,
because
it's
certainly
going
to
help
with
our
general
plan
update
as
we
work
through
that
in
the
following
year.
So
that
will
be
help
as
well.
B
So
why
don't
we
go
to
some
council
questions
who
wants
to
start.
G
I'll
jump
in
there,
mr
mayor,
all
right,
councilmember
engler.
Well,
thank
you.
I
just
wanted
to
comment
that
overall,
just
looking
at
this,
the
I
think
one
of
the
key
things
that
I
found
in
this
is
one
one
takeaway
is
that
we
are
doing
a
pretty
good
job.
G
Let's
not,
as
the
report
says,
over
steer,
let's
make
my
course
corrections,
but
let's
not
completely
turn
our
car
around
here,
the
the
secondly.
Secondly,
I
think
there's
was
a
I'm
a
believer
in
a
well-executed
survey
and
it's
it's
my
understanding
and
my
feeling
kevin
talking
to
citizens
that
the
survey
results
are
somewhat
my
experience
in
talking
to
people
keeping
our
strong
public
safety,
protecting
our
open
space,
doing
something
about
our
housing
issues.
G
Those
are
all
on
the
top
of
our
residence's
mind
and
the
information
that
we
can
garner
from
this
study
will
assist
us
going
forward
when
we
met
earlier.
I
spoke
with
true
north's
representatives
earlier.
Can
you
go
a
little
bit
more
into
the
methodology
and
why
you
think
this
is
a
very
good
representation
of
of
our
citizenry
sure.
I
Sure
I
mean
one
of
the
things
you
hear
the
common
criticism
that
you
know
that
people
don't
trust
surveys
sometimes
right,
because
and
the
problem
with
that
is
oftentimes.
Surveys
aren't
conducted
in
a
statistically
reliable
manner
right,
one
of
the
most
important
things
in
in
a
survey
where
that
allows
you
to
survey
six
seven
hundred
individuals
and
be
able
to
know
with
a
certain
degree
of
reliability.
I
What
the
entire
population
would
have
said
is
that
it'll
be
based
on
a
randomized
sample
where
every
unit
the
population
has
an
equal
probability
of
being
chosen
for
the
study
when
you
just
use
online
or
you
just
use
telephone,
for
example,
you're
not
actually
adhering
to
that
sort
of
requirement
of
inferential
statistics,
because
you
know
that
some
people
aren't
going
to
answer
the
phone,
and
you
know
that
some
people,
maybe
don't-
have
online
access.
This
is
why,
when
we
develop
our
randomized
sample
of
households,
we
use
multiple
recruiting
methods
right.
I
Once
we've
selected
that
household
we
use
mail,
we
use
email
and
we
use
phone
and
so
you're
making
sure
that
you're
giving
somebody
who's
been
randomly
selected
in
your
sample,
multiple
ways
that
they
can
be
recruited
for
the
study,
and
then
we
also
give
individuals
multiple
ways
to
participate.
They
can
participate
by
telephone
or
they
can
participate
in
a
password
protected
website.
What
we
don't
do
is
just
open
up
the
survey
and
say
hey,
whoever
wants
to
take
it.
I
We
also,
though,
after
selecting
folks
at
random,
we
will
monitor
data
collection
in
the
sample
profile
as
we
go,
making
sure
that
demographically
our
sample
is
shaping
up
like
the
profile
of
adults
and
thousand
oaks
needs
to
be
right
and
so
by
by
making
sure
that
we
have
that
random
representative
sample
and
then
obviously
using
survey,
questions
that
are
both
valid
and
reliable
measures
of
your
residence
opinions.
I
That
enables
us
to
be
able,
at
the
end
of
the
study
with
that
group
of
690,
know
that
it's
representative
of
what
would
have
found
in
the
larger
community
within
a
pretty
small
margin
of
error.
That's
about
3.7
percent.
G
Okay,
one
other
one,
other
quick
follow-up
question.
I
think,
in
terms
of
the
casual
observer,
might
look
at
some
of
the
slides
and
see
a
slight
erosion
of
some
of
these
satisfaction
measures
that
you
did.
I
think
one
of
the
overall
measure
eroded
three
percent
over
10
years.
Is
that
a
statistically
important
thing
to
look
at
or
is
it?
Is
it
pretty
much
that's
almost
flat
in
terms
of
what
your
experience
is
when
doing
surveys
yeah.
I
You're
going
to
see
variation
year
to
year
because
you
have
two
independently
selected
random
samples
right.
So
even
if
opinions
in
the
community
were
unchanged,
just
by
having
two
independently
selected
random
samples,
you're
likely
to
get
a
little
bit
of
a
variation
year-to-year
right.
That's
why
we
conduct
what
we
call
statistical
significance.
I
Testing
right
where
we
will
identify
is
the
magnitude
of
change
between,
say,
2017
and
2020
large
enough
that
we
can
be
confident
that
that
change
is
in
fact
a
reflection
of
a
change
in
public
opinion,
as
opposed
to
an
artifact
of
into
independent,
random
sampling
and
in
the
survey
we
do
identify
some
areas
that
are
statistically
significant
changes.
For
example,
drew
mentioned
one
of
them
with
respect
to
the,
and
I
did
earlier
the
satisfaction
level
with
the
city's
efforts
to
manage
traffic
congestion
that
has
increased
in
a
significant
way
in
the
past
three
years.
I
But
those
slight
changes
that
you
see
in
that
I
think
you're
referencing
in
the
quality
of
life
in
the
in
the
slide.
That's
not
those
are
not
statistically
significant
meaning.
We
can't
be
confident
that
that
that
that
difference
is
in
fact
reflective
of
a
change
in
public
opinion.
It's
too
small
the
difference
over
time.
C
Let
me
ask
a
question:
how
do
you
derive
your
random
sample?
Do
you
use
precinct
sheets
to
have?
Is
it
random,
geographically
or.
I
So
back
in
the
day,
what
we
used
to
do
was
randomize
phone
numbers
right,
that's
how
these
surveys
were
conducted.
You
would
take
you
know
when
everybody
had
a
landline.
All
you
had
to
do
was
choose
phone
numbers
at
random
and
every
household
would
effectively
have
an
equal
probability
selection.
We
don't
do
that
anymore,
because
we
aren't
using
telephone
as
the
basis
for
the
sampling
design.
I
I
That's
how
we
choose
it
once
we've
done
that,
then
we
append
the
contact
information,
so
we
already
have
an
address.
Obviously,
but
then
we
append
phone
number
email.
That's
one
of
the
things.
That's
really
changed
in
the
past
five
years.
Is
the
ability
to
append
information,
contact,
information
based
on
household
level
data
and
that's
how
we
then
develop
the
contact
information
we
can
use
to
reach
out
and
contact
those
households.
C
So
it's
strictly
geographical,
then,
in
other
words,
we
have
different
districts,
it's
sort
of
like
a
monopoly
board.
You
know
you
have
your
boardwalk
and
park
place,
but
you've
also
got
baltic
and
mediterranean
right
so
forth.
So
I
I
think
that
has
a
little
bit
to
do
with
their
attitudes
about
things.
I
It
can
I
mean,
keep
in
mind,
we
didn't
this
was
a
broader
survey.
It
wasn't
just
voters
right,
it
was.
It
was
all
residents,
and
so
when
we
do
just
straight
voter
surveys,
we'll
often
look
at
it
by
either
council
district,
for
example,
in
communities
that
have
council
district
or
we
look
at
it
by
aggregations
of
precincts
with
690
completes.
I
You
wouldn't
want
to
break
that
down
by
individual
precincts,
because
you
wouldn't
have
enough
interviews
in
any
one
precinct
to
be
able
to
speak
reliably
about
the
opinions
you
have
to
kind
of
aggregate
them
to
get
to
that
point.
But
you
know
we
certainly
make
sure
that
we're
reaching
out
across
the
the
city
and
and
paying
attention
to
not
just
demographics
right,
which
is
probably
the
more
important
thing,
but
also
geographic.
J
Thank
you,
mayor
adam.
I
have
a
couple
of
questions.
I
saw
the
difference
in
responses
to
our
affordable
housing
or
to
affordable
housing,
in
that
it
ranked
eighth
in
necessity.
Yet,
in
the
other
question-
and
I
forget
what
question
it
was,
what
number
it
was
it
ranked
a
little
bit
higher
than
that?
If
you
please
explain
that
discrepancy
so.
I
Question
four
asks
individuals
to
tell
us
what
one
change
they
think
thousand
oaks
could
make
to
make
it
a
better
place
to
live
in
the
future
right,
so
they're
taking
the
number
one
thing
that
comes
in
their
mind
right
and
when
we
ask
that
question
you
have
about
six
percent
of
people
who
said
provide
more
affordable
housing.
That
was
their
number
one
issue
right.
You
had
about
15
who
mentioned
limiting
growth,
preserving
open
spaces.
I
We
had
about
11
of
mentioned
homelessness,
so
that's
a
measure
of
saliency
what
was
top
of
mind
for
that
respondent,
and
it
came
in
about
eighth
down
at
six
percent
when
you
that
doesn't
mean
that
the
other
94
percent
of
people
don't
care
about
affordable
housing
right,
it
just
means
that
it
wasn't
their
number
one
issue.
It
was
somewhere
further
down
their
own
personal
list
when
you
look
later
in
the
survey-
and
this
is
for
question
back
up-
I
think
I
just
passed
it.
I
This
was
for
question
eight,
where
we
presented
them
with
a
series
of
land
uses
and
amenities
and
development
types
in
the
city
and
asked.
Is
there
too
little
of
this?
Currently?
Is
there
about
the
right
amount,
or
is
there
too
much?
I
That
is
where
we
saw
what
we
specifically
mentioned:
affordable
housing,
that's
where
we
saw
that
affordable
housing
items,
sort
of
rise
at
the
top
of
the
list,
and
you
had
anywhere
from
42
to
48
of
your
your
residents
say
that
there's
not
enough
affordable
housing
for
select
groups
in
the
community
right
with
the
balance
most
of
the
balance
saying
it's
about
right
and
a
small
percentage
saying,
there's
too
much.
So
that's
the
discrepancy.
I
J
And
they
do,
and
that
was
very
noticeable.
Thank
you.
I
also
wanted
to
ask
now
from
affordable
housing
moving
to
homelessness,
homelessness,
really
never
registered
at
all
or
wasn't
on
the
radar
of
our
questionnaire.
Until
this
past
april
may,
and
I
wanted
to
have
you
explain
why
homelessness
is
just
coming
out
of
nowhere,
it
seems
it
seems,
but.
I
Yeah
I
mean
I
think
again
if
we
can,
if
we
flash
back
to
pre-pandemic
right
and
think
about
what
a
lot
of
the
stories
were
in
the
media
in
southern
california
right,
you
saw
a
lot
of
stories
about
homelessness
and
and
how
it
was
affecting
certain
communities
in
certain
counties
and
strategy
to
deal
with
it
right.
I
think
you
also
have
seen
at
least
anecdotally.
I
If
you
drive
around
in
certain
communities,
you
do
see
an
uptick
in
the
amount
of
homeless
individuals
you
encounter
and
so
in
communities
in
general
right
when
we've
been
doing
these
types
of
polls
around
the
state,
we
saw
that
between
2016,
where
homelessness
really
wasn't
on
the
radar
of
issues
from
any
respondents,
homelessness
could
become
the
number
one
right,
in
fact,
several
cities.
We
worked
with
homelessness
when
you
ask
that
question
of
what's
the
most
important
issue
facing
community
homelessness
was
the
number
one
issue.
I
So
I
think
the
fact
that
it
shows
up
here
in
2020
and
thousand
oaks
is
not
surprising,
because
it's
popping
up
all
over
the
state
in
a
lot
of
ways.
It
isn't
the
number
one
issue
right,
interestingly
enough
and
so
like
it
has
been
in
some
other
communities,
but
it's
certainly
there
right
and
you
do
see
about
60
percent
of
your
residents
say
that
they've
noticed
uptick
in
the
number
of
homeless
people
in
thousand
homes.
I
I
I
think
there's
recognition
from
residents
that,
regardless
of
how
you
feel
about
homeless
individuals,
it's
a
problem
that
has
to
be
addressed
right,
I
mean
we
may
differ
in
our
policy
prescriptions,
but
we
can
all
probably
agree
that
this
is
something
you
can't
just
ignore
right.
J
Well,
I
think
this
is
important
to
to
know
and
also
to
distribute
this
sort
of
information,
because
this
is
an
election
year
and
we
have
several
candidates
running
for
city
council,
some
of
whom
may
just
think
that
homelessness
is
not
to
be
addressed
and
just
to
be
swept
under
the
rug.
J
And
I
think
it
is
very
important
to
let
everybody
know
that
the
city
of
thousand
oaks
and
its
residents
are
increasingly
becoming
aware
of
the
needs
and
services
necessary
for
for
us
to
provide
meaning
us,
the
city
of
thousand
oaks
and
that's
more
of
a
statement
and
a
question.
C
Wonder
this
section
on
raiding
the
city
of
thousand
oaks
in
terms
of
our
services,
etcetera?
How?
How
do
we
compare
with
other
cities
that
you
have
surveyed?
Well,
I.
I
Think
you
know,
city
thousand
oaks
has
always
been
one
of
the
top
performers
that
we've
worked
with
right
and
the
fact
that
you
know
again
you've
been
able
to
maintain
a
you
know.
9
out
of
10
residents,
giving
the
city
high
marks
for
your
provision
of
services
in
general.
Over
time
is,
is,
you
know,
is
really
good
right,
so
I
mean
you're
in
the
top
tier
of
the
cities
that
we
work
with.
In
that
respect,
do
they.
C
Generally,
have
the
same
hierarchy
of
excuse
me
at
services,
so
starting
with
library
and
then
going
to
the
fire
and
police
protection
and
so
forth.
You
know.
I
It's
funny
that
that
list
of
the
specific
service
areas
and
levels
of
satisfaction
does
vary
a
lot
community
to
community
right,
meaning
the
things
are
at
the
top
of
the
list
and
satisfaction
in
one
community
might
not
be
the
same
thing
as
in
other
communities
right.
So
you
do
see
a
fair
amount
of
variation
at
that
level.
I
I
That's
not
often
the
case
a
lot
of
times
when
you
work
with
cities,
there's
going
to
be
one
or
two
things
at
the
bottom
that
are
going
to
be
more
like
40,
50,
satisfaction,
right,
and
so
the
city
has
done
a
good
job
kind
of
me
not
only
providing
high-level
services,
but
really
balancing
that
across
a
wide
range
of
different
service
areas,
so
that
you
don't
have
any
areas
that
are
sort
of
you
know
neglected.
So
to
speak,.
C
I
Would
say
number
one
keep
doing
what
you're
doing
right
and
what
I
mean
by
that
is
anytime.
You
have
strong
scores
like
you
have
here
and
high
levels
of
satisfaction
across
the
board.
If
you
do
nothing
else,
just
continue
to
do
what
you're
already
doing
right,
because
you're
already
doing
a
very
solid
job
in
meeting
residence
needs.
I
You
know,
to
the
extent
that
you
have
the
ability
to
kind
of
focus
in
a
few
areas
right.
You
know,
I
think,
the
areas
of
traffic
congestion,
although
you've,
made
a
lot
of
progress
in
that
in
the
last
three
years.
That's
clearly
something
residents
care
about
they'd
like
to
see
some
improvement
there.
You
know
wrestling
with
that
issue
of
how
do
you
on
one
hand,
protect
open
space
and
manage
growth
and
development
while
at
the
same
time
address
your
affordable
housing
needs
right
as
well
as
residence
desires
for
economic
development.
I
J
Thank
you,
dr
mclarney.
I
also
see
that
next
door
shot
up
out
of
nowhere.
It
seems
in
terms
of
source
of
information.
I
personally
described
next
door
and
excuse
my
language
as
the
toilet
of
the
internet,
sometimes
because
it
is
just
so
highly
controversial
and
rude,
but
so
is
other
social
media.
Have
you
seen
that
sort
of
uptick
in
in
reliance
by
residents
on
next
door
in
other
cities.
I
I
have
not
at
all,
but
certainly
in
some
communities,
and
I
and
I
think
your
assessment
of
it
as
a
a
messaging
platform
so
to
speak
or
communication
platform
is,
is
pretty
close
to
probably
what
mine
is
as
well.
I
don't
know
I
mean
there's
just
a
lot
of
venom
on
you
know,
and
I
see
them,
I'm
we're
on
it
in
my
own
neighborhood
and
the
stuff
that
my
wife
will
come
in
and
go.
I
You
know
I've
had
some
cities
say
well,
should
we
be
on
next
door?
Should
we
have
more
presence
there
and
it's
like
it's,
probably
not
a
great
idea
right,
considering
the
platform
and
you're
better
off
controlling
your
own
messages
and
in
your
own
communications,
to
residents
and
figuring
out
a
way
to
to
you
know
to
increase
those
and
those
are
ones
that
come
from
you
with
your
own
message
and
what
you
think
is
important
and
your
your
ability
to
sort
of
decide
what
detail.
J
And
you
are
correct,
however,
when
you
have
to
when
you
see
misinformation
on
nextdoor
or
other
social
media,
there
is
an
expected
sort
of
responsibility
where
you
have
to
defend
yourself
or
correct
the
facts
or
correct
the
misstatements.
J
So
so
that
is
what
I
noticed
next
door
just
moving
up
in
terms
of
information
out
of
nowhere,
and
I
think
that
residents
just
need
to
be
aware
that
a
lot
of
wrong
information
is
on
next
door.
J
Then
I
also
noticed
that
there
is
an
increased
attention
or
preference
to
protect
the
environment.
I
think
there
was
a
slight
uptick.
It
may
not
have
been
signific
statistically
statistically
significant,
but
there
is
an
uptick
in
wanting
to
preserve
the
environment
and
greece
and
other
landmark
trees.
If
you
could,
please
speak
to
that.
I
Yeah,
I
mean
we
saw
if
you
compare
why,
when
you
ask
residents,
what's
the
you
know,
what's
the
one
change
that
the
city
government
could
make
to
improve
quality
life
and
thousand
oaks?
You
know
in
2017,
for
example,
that
was
reduced
traffic
congestion
right
and
we
saw
that
you
made
a
lot
of
headway
in
that
area
in
terms
of
resident
satisfaction,
it's
no
longer
number
one.
I
In
fact,
it's
no
longer
even
top
five
right
on
that
list,
but
the
issue
of
limiting
growth
and
preserving
open
space,
which
previously
was
the
sort
of
number
three
in
2017,
is
now
number
one
in
2020..
You
know
I
think
that
not
only
reflects
sort
of
the
underlying
values
of
your
community
right
of
what
they
value.
I
think
also
a
couple
of
for
larger
developments
are
at
in
play
here.
I
These
are
for
projects
that
weren't
titled
in
many
respects
right,
but
so
it's
more
visible
right
that
that
now
we're
having
construction
in
areas
where
we
didn't
have
before
that
is
going
to
kind
of
resonate
with
some
people
who
want
to
try
and
limit
growth
and
development
right,
they're
now
they're,
starting
to
see
these
projects
go
up,
so
that's
part
of
it
and,
I
think
also
part
of
it.
You
know
the
last
four
or
five
months.
J
Thank
you
so
much,
dr
mclaren.
I
think
that
this
survey
really
does
prove
that
decision
makers
in
the
city
of
thousand
oaks
have
got
to
find
a
balance
between
development
and
the
environment,
and
that
is
super
important.
It
has
always
been
super
important
here
in
this
in
in
the
city
of
thousand
oaks
and
its
history,
and
it
continues
to
do
so
that
you
cannot
just
try
to
build
your
way
out
of
out
of
certain
issues,
but
you
also
need
to
respect
the
environment
and
our
heritage.
So
thank
you
very
much.
C
I
think
that
acorn
newspaper
ought
to
send
true
north
research
a
dozen
roses
for
their
survey,
and
we
may
see
that
survey
on
the
front
page
of
the
next
edition
of
the
acorn.
Just
a
suggestion.
B
Moral
of
the
story
read
your
acorn
all
right.
Thank
you,
dr
mcglaney.
You
know
there
were
a
lot
of
different
things.
You
can
glean
from
this
survey.
Of
course,
one
thing
that
stuck
out
for
me
when
you
talk
about
housing
and
homelessness
and,
as
we
all
know,
there's
many
causes
for
homelessness,
but
one
of
the
causes
is
lack
of
affordable
housing,
and
it
seems
to
me
that
the
residents
were
clear.
Majority
of
them
want
to
see
entry
level
more
entry-level,
workforce,
affordable
housing
here
in
the
city.
B
B
We
have
a
few
very
few.
What
we
call
opportunity
sites
along
the
101
corridor,
where
entry-level
or
workforce
housing
could
be
could
be
built,
and
it
seems
to
me
that
the
survey
is
acknowledging
that
and
and
approving
of
that
approach,
so
we'll
have
to
see
what
happens.
As
dr
mclarney
said,
development
was
stopped
for
a
number
of
years.
There's
been
a
very
small
amount
that
has
restarted
here
in
the
city.
We
have
one
or
two
projects
underway
at
the
moment.
B
But
if
you
look
at
our
situation
over
the
last
five
years,
I
believe
we
put
in
400
units
over
five
years
works
out
to
about
80
units.
A
year
is
less
than
one
percent
of
the
housing
stock
in
the
city.
So
there
really
has
been
a
slow
growth
approach
and,
of
course,
as
everybody
knows,
the
open
space
that
we
have
is
highly
valued
and
will
be
preserved
and
protected.
I
think
no
matter
what
happens
but
anyway.
Thank
you,
dr
milani,
great
great
report,
and
with
that
I'll
need
a
motion
to
accept
the
report.
F
B
On
just
a
moment
we
have
city
attorney.
Noonan
would
like
to
make
a
comment.
B
B
B
Right,
thank
you
all
right
and
next
up
we're
going
to
go
to
the
alliance
for
the
arts
report
correct
all
right,
very
good
and
jonathan
sarrett.
Our
deputy
cultural
affairs
director,
is
going
to
give
us
that
report.
Jonathan,
welcome.
K
Good
evening,
mayor
adam
and
council
members
twice
a
year,
teo
arts
comes
before
you
to
present
a
six
month,
update
on
their
activity
and
tonight
we're
joined
by
teo
arts
chair
leanne
nielsen.
Who
will
give
our
presentation
by
video.
C
L
L
L
during
the
teor
strategic
retreat
last
fall.
The
board
discussed
ways
to
increase
diversity
within
our
membership.
The
board
directed
staff
to
prepare
amendments
to
the
ports,
bylaws
increasing
the
membership
of
the
board
from
seven
directors
up
to
11
directors,
in
accordance
with
the
memorandum
of
understanding
between
to
arts
and
the
city.
These
amendments
were
brought
forward
for
your
ratification.
This
evening,
an
ad
hoc
nominating
committee
has
been
formed
to
identify
potential
candidates
for
these
new
board
director
seats
and
to
fill
an
unanticipated
vacancy.
L
L
Additionally,
teo
arts
prepared
for
the
transition
of
the
executive
director
with
the
expected
retirement
of
the
cultural
affairs
director.
The
deputy
cultural
affairs
director
took
on
that
role
of
acting
direct
executive
director
for
to
arts
in
january,
and
he
will
continue
to
serve
in
that
capacity
until
a
permanent
appointment
is
made.
L
L
The
board
is
currently
working
with
staff
to
finalize
the
operating
budget
for
fiscal
year
2020-21
and
is
expected
to
discuss
the
item
at
our
september
meeting.
The
limitations
and
restrictions
of
covert
19
will
impact.
Many
of
our
regular
programming
activities
with
regards
to
marketing
and
branding
ports
is
continuing
to
implement
our
branding
and
communications
plan
which
we've
been
working
on
throughout
the
last
year.
As
you
may
recall,
last
year
the
board
adopted
a
new
logo,
which
was
the
first
step
to
this
implementation
process.
L
L
This
february
to
arts,
hosted
a
gratitude
reception
to
show
our
appreciation
for
donors
and
supporters.
At
the
event
to
arts
presented
a
special
recognition
for
outgoing
executive
director
and
cultural
affairs.
Director
barry
mccomb,
the
lifetime
heart
of
the
arts
award
was
also
presented
that
evening
to
board
director
eloise
cohen,
who
has
been
a
long
time
advocate
and
supporter
of
this
community,
and
especially
the
art.
L
Kovat
19
has
had
a
significant
impact
on
everyone,
but
the
live
arts
and
entertainment
industry
has
been
hit
especially
hard.
The
suspension
of
live
events
has
altered
the
ways
in
which
we
interact
in
reaction
to
this
por
pivoted
to
digital
engagement,
to
stay
connected
with
our
network.
Even
though
we
had
to
keep
our
physical
distance,
the
live
at
home
activity
provided
to
art
subscribers
to
meet
a
different
backpack
staff
member
each
week
and
to
view
that
staff
members
curated
youtube
playlist.
L
Unfortunately,
12
performances
had
to
be
rescheduled
or
cancelled
due
to
covet
19.,
along
with
a
suspension
of
live
events.
The
concessions
operation
at
the
performing
arts
center
had
to
be
halted
when,
faced
with
the
likelihood
of
expiring
inventory
to
arch,
is
able
to
support
food
relief
efforts
in
the
community
by
donating
more
than
four
thousand
five
hundred
dollars
in
perishable
non-alcoholic
food
and
beverages.
L
L
Unfortunately,
we
are
only
able
to
present
the
first
two
speakers
this
season.
However,
we
have
rescheduled
our
remaining
two
speakers
to
join
us
in
the
cavley
theater
in
april
and
may
of
2021.,
as
previously
mentioned,
our
national
geographic
live
speakers
present
directly
to
middle
school
and
high
school
students
in
the
morning
prior
to
their
events.
We
look
forward
to
continuing
this
relationship
when
live.
Events
are
able
to
safely
resume
during
fiscal
year.
L
L
L
Cloven
19
has
wrought
havoc
upon
our
daily
lives
and
has
prevented
the
ability
to
serve
our
core
function,
to
bring
people
together
to
experience
the
arts
together
as
a
community,
but
theo
arts
will
not
be
deterred.
We
are
looking
for
ways
to
adapt
and
improve
how
we
reach
people
as
we
adjust
to
prepare
for
a
post
covered
world,
we're
exploring
opportunities
to
improve
and
enhance
ourselves,
not
just
in
response
to
this
crisis,
but
to
prepare
for
long-term
sustainability
and
success.
L
L
L
We
will
continue
to
work
on
fully
implementing
the
comprehensive
branding
and
communications
plan,
and
engagement
will
be
top
of
mind
as
to
arts
continues
to
adapt
finding
new
ways
of
staying
connected
and
bringing
people
together
on
behalf
of
the
teo
arts
board
and
staff,
and
the
millions
of
patrons
whose
lives
have
been
enriched
by
attending
performances
at
the
bank
of
america
performing
arts
center.
I
want
to
thank
you
for
your
continued
support
of
our
efforts
and
our
activities.
G
Hello,
mayor
yeah,
I
guess
I'll
start
it
off
again
all
right
leanne,
thank
you
for
everything
you're
doing
with
the
with
the
teo
arts,
council
and
everything
I
think
we're
making
great
strides
there.
Unfortunately,
we've
all
hit
this
speed
bump
called
covid,
and
it
definitely
has
hurt
our
efforts
this
year
to
keep
art's
forefront
in
the
in
the
community.
G
Given
that
the
performing
arts
have
been
so
heavily
hit
have.
Can
you
explain
some
of
the
things
you've
done
for
maybe
visual
arts
supporting
different
actions
within
the
community.
K
Thank
you,
council,
member
engler
leanne,
I'm
not
sure
if
your
connection
has
unfrozen,
but
I'd
be
happy
to
take
that
question
in
the
downtime,
since
we've
not
been
able
to
focus
on
presenting
the
live
performing
arts
that
is
core
to
our
mission
and
a
significant
part
of
our
programming
tea
awards
has
focused
rather
on
engagement
through
those
digital
activities
such
as
the
live
at
home
series
and
the
state
of
the
performing
arts.
Facebook
live
program
that
nikki
richardson
our
development
director
put
together.
K
Additionally,
we've
been
focusing
on
how
to
provide
that
access
arts
program
to
enhance
arts
education
for
all
elementary
school
students
in
the
kaneo
valley,
unified
school
district
and
that
program
we
are
in
the
midst
of
finalizing
and
we
expect
to
implement
along
with
cvusd
later,
this
fall
to
provide
virtual
arts
instruction,
and
that
would
be
a
combination
of
visual
arts
that
would
be
an
inclusion
of
performing
arts
and
utilizing
a
lot
of
our
performing
arts
partners
to
provide
those
services
as
well
just
from
a
virtual
environment.
J
C
K
It's
a
great
question:
councilmember
jones,
it's
one
that
we
ponder
ourselves
on
a
daily
basis,
as,
as
we
know,
changes
are
happening
day
to
day
minute
by
minute
and
sometimes
quicker
than
that
at
the
moment,
we've
suspended
all
live
events
happening
at
the
cavali
theater.
With
regard
to
having
a
live
audience
in
place,
however,
the
television
and
film
industry
will
likely
be
able
to
resume
a
lot
faster
and,
in
many
cases,
has
already
started
to
resume.
K
So
we
are
trying
to
position
ourselves
as
a
filming
location,
albeit
we
can't
provide
the
services
that
we
typically
would
with
a
live
audience
in
place,
but
if
we
can
provide
which
I
and
a
number
of
our
staff
truly
believe,
we
can
a
safe,
responsible
environment
for
people
to
do
their
filming
of
television
and
and
other
filming
or
streaming
projects,
then
certainly
we
will
make
ourselves
available
to
be
an
on-site
location
for
that
activity.
K
At
the
moment
we
are,
as
the
mayor
pro
tem
said,
at
the
behest
of,
or
we're
waiting
on
direction
from
the
state
with
regard
to
getting
to
stage
four.
I
personally
hope
it's
a
lot
faster
than
than
some
of
the
guesses
that
are
out
there,
but
that's
just
it
there's
a
lot
of
guesses.
So
at
this
point
we
are
planning
for
live
events
to
resume
after
the
new
year
in
2021.
C
B
All
right,
thank
you
very
much.
Thank
you,
lan
for
all
the
work
you
do
for
teo,
arts
and
jonathan.
Thank
you
for
working
hard
to
keep
the
theaters
engaged,
even
though
we
can't
have
performances
there.
It's
a
great
idea
to
bring
in
people
to
film
here
and
the
like
keeps
the
theaters
engaged,
keep
some
revenue
flowing,
and
you
know
here
in
the
city,
we've
always
had
an
egalitarian
approach
to
the
arts.
We
want
to
make
them
as
accessible
as
possible
to
everybody
that
we
can
and
t.o
arts
just
does
just
that.
B
I
mean
field
trips
for
school,
kids,
national
geographic
speakers
to
canelo
valley,
unified
school
district
tickets
for
safe
passions,
kids,
the
fact
that
you
donated
all
the
food
and
the
concession
stand
when
we
couldn't
obviously
use
it
anymore.
All
these
are
great
things
to
to
bring
the
arts
to
everybody
we
can
in
the
city
of
thousand
oaks.
B
J
C
B
H
You
so
much
mayor
adam
and
thank
you,
council
members
for
hearing
the
report
tonight,
I'm
here
to
discuss
a
few
covet.
19
related
community
assistance
programs.
As
we
all
know,
this
has
been
an
unprecedented
time
in
our
history.
The
actions
taken
to
protect
our
health
have
had
financial
impacts
that
have
affected
many
in
our
community.
H
H
Some
of
those
impacted
financially
include
our
residents,
non-profit
groups
providing
support,
performing
arts
groups
and
businesses.
City
council
recently
took
two
actions
to
assist
our
local
business
community.
Those
actions
included
approving
over
three
hundred
and
forty
thousand
dollars
in
cares
act.
Community
development
block
grant
funding
for
a
small
business
grant
program
and
donating
twenty
thousand
dollars
to
the
chamber
of
commerce,
conejo
valley,
small
business
relief
fund.
H
Tonight's
focus
will
be
on
the
performing
arts
groups,
non-profit
organizations
and
residents.
We
are
asking
city
council
to
authorize
the
city
manager
to
design
and
implement
three
relief
programs
as
we
go
through
these
programs.
Please
keep
in
mind
that,
while
the
basic
structure
of
them
have
been
established,
some
of
the
details
are
still
being
worked
on.
H
So
the
first
program
is
the
bank
of
america
performing
arts
center
rent
relief
program.
This
program
would
offer
a
credit
to
the
three
resident
companies
in
the
amount
of
ten
thousand
dollars
each
and
fifteen
hundred
dollars
to
other
thousand
oaks
based
non-profit
performing
arts
groups.
These
credits
would
apply
to
the
rental
of
either
the
share
or
forum
theater
to
help
offset
costs
when
they
return
to
live
productions.
H
H
The
second
program
is
geared
to
the
nonprofit
groups
and
thousand
oaks
that
are
providing
coveted
relief.
We've
seen
the
tremendous
work
being
done
by
our
non-profits
during
this
pandemic,
some
have
created
new
programs,
while
others
have
seen
their
existing
programs
grow
exponentially
with
the
overwhelming
financial
support
needed
to
run
these
programs.
The
intention
is
to
provide
ten
organizations,
ten
thousand
dollars
for
a
total
of
one
hundred
thousand
dollars
in
assistance.
H
While
we
do
already
have
a
social
services
grant
program,
this
year's
cycle
has
passed
and
grants
were
awarded
for
programs
that
were
applied
for
prior
to
the
virus.
This
program
is
different
in
that
an
organization
will
qualify
based
on
their
overall
relief
efforts
and
will
not
be
just
specific
to
any
one
program.
H
H
So
let's
talk
about
where
this
funding
will
come
from
for
these
two
programs,
just
discussed
in
1985
city
council
set
aside
funds
for
a
grant
program.
There
are
four
community
grants
with
three
of
them,
funded
by
the
general
fund.
As
I
mentioned,
the
social
services
grants
were
awarded
in
may,
the
community
events
grant
and
the
sports
facility
grant
each
have
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
budgeted
this
fiscal
year,
and
while
there
are
important
programs,
this
virus
has
caused
many
priorities
to
shift
this
year.
H
So
the
last
program
that
we
are
going
to
discuss
tonight
is
a
residential
rental
assistance
program.
We
are
nearing
the
end
of
the
eviction
moratorium
and
tenants
will
only
have
six
months
to
pay
back
rent
before
facing
eviction
for
many
who
are
still
unable
to
work.
This
may
be
an
impossible
situation.
H
H
The
program
includes
both
the
tenant
and
the
landlord
in
the
process,
and
payments
are
made
directly
to
the
landlord
to
be
eligible,
applicants
must
reside
in
thousand
oaks,
have
an
established
need
must
show
that
they
have
been
impacted
financially
by
covet.
19
must
be
on
the
lease
agreement,
and
only
one
member
of
a
household
may
apply.
H
We
are
proposing
assistance
in
the
amount
of
thirty
six
hundred
dollars
for
those
those
residing
in
a
studio
or
one
bedroom
unit,
and
those
in
a
two
bedroom
unit
or
larger
would
receive
fifty
six
hundred
dollars.
These
amounts
are
based
on
an
average
two
months
rent.
We
recognize
that
a
household
rent
for
two
months
may
be
more
or
less
than
this
assistance
amount,
but
it
is
a
method
where
of
reply
of
excuse
me
a
method
of
providing
relief
that
is
manageable
from
an
administrative
standpoint.
H
H
If
approved
tonight,
the
city
would
negotiate
with
the
county
of
ventura
to
use
the
same
program
that
they
used
for
their
rental
assistance
program
by
piggy
backing
on
their
contract.
With
the
vendor,
similar
to
the
county's
rental
assistance
program,
we
would
have
an
online
application
that
would
first
be
completed
by
the
tenant
and
subsequently
the
landlord.
H
The
goal
is
to
make
the
application
simple
for
the
users
so
that
not
to
deter
them
from
seeking
assistance.
The
software
contains
auditing
functions
that
flag
potential
fraudulent
applications
and
will
seek
to
include
as
many
fraud
prevention
procedures
without
making
the
application
process
too
onerous.
H
However,
priority
is
given
to
those
who
are
low
income
and
those
who
did
not
receive
assistance
through
the
county
program.
If
we
have
more
applicants
than
available
funding,
those
who
are
in
the
lower
number
tiers
would
get
funded
first.
So,
for
example,
if
we
have
enough
funds
for
tiers
one
and
two
those
would
be
awarded.
H
If
we
are
in
tier
three
with
funding
for
only
half
of
those
applicants,
we
would
utilize
the
random
lottery
process
in
place
within
the
software
to
provide
for
a
fair
process,
some
additional
things
we
considered,
including
the
cost
above
a
million
dollars
of
funding.
As
part
of
the
recommendation,
we
have
included
a
budget
adjustment
for
the
software
and
advertising
costs.
H
The
staff
time
will
not
be
a
hard
cost
to
the
city,
but
will
require
require
us
to
shift
staff
members
temporarily
to
assist
with
tasks
such
as
answering
questions
from
applicants,
assisting
people
with
their
applications
and
reviewing
and
auditing
the
applications
and
other
administrative
assignments.
We
recognize
that
we
need
to
be
creative
and
how
we
reach
those
who
need
the
help.
Traditional
advertising
will
still
be
used,
but
we
will
lean
on
our
community
partners
who
are
already
working
with
many
of
these
families
to
help
get
the
information
to
these
families.
H
H
If
approved
tonight,
the
city
manager
will
enter
into
a
memorandum
of
understanding
with
the
county.
If
we
can
negotiate
that
and
we
will
begin
working
with
them
on
the
development
of
the
software,
we
will
concurrently
work
on
our
procedures
and
documents
and
develop
our
marketing
plan
and
make
contact
with
community
partners
to
assist
with
outreach.
H
So
to
summarize,
there
are
three
programs
we
are
proposing
tonight.
You
have
four
recommendations
before
you
that
include
a
resolution
suspending
two
grants
for
this
fiscal
year
and
authorizing
the
city
manager
to
execute
these
three
programs.
Additionally,
there
are
three
recommendations
for
budget
and
transfers
to
these
programs,
and
I
am
available
for
any
questions
that
you
may
have.
B
They've
had
reduced
hours,
they're,
paying
more
for
child
care,
medical
costs,
and
all
this
adds
up
to
an
urgency
to
keep
people
in
their
apartments
and
homes
and
whatever
it
may
be,
and
and
also
of
course,
we
are
able
to
repurpose
some
of
the
events
and
sports
endowments
money
that
we
don't
we're
not
going
to
have
any
events
in
sports
at
this
point,
so
it
makes
total
sense
to
repurpose
that
as
well,
and
I
would
like
to
make
a
suggestion
there.
B
B
B
we
take
another
15
and
which
is
what
you
would
suggest,
and
we
spread
that
out
to
among
approximately
10
local
non-profits
and
it's
going
to
be
up
to
as
far
as
I'm
concerned
be
up
to
staff
about
who
gets
what
you
can
certainly
determine
the
priority
and
the
deservedness
of
the
funds.
That'll
leave
140
for
social
services,
like
you
name
it
safe
passage,
senior
concerns,
adelante
communidad.
B
B
G
Doing
well
over
here
I
can
I'll
have
to
have
you
re-um
restate
your
your
adjustments
to
our
to
our
money
when
we
get
done
to
this,
but
I
think
the
the
program
I
wish
you
know,
as
I
agree
100
with
you,
this
is
something
that
we're
really
needing
to
do
for
our
community
and
the
money
I
understand
is
coming
from
our
a
community
benefit
fund
that
was
asked
for
when
299
went
into
into
view.
G
Is
this
something
that
is
going
to
my
question,
I
think,
is:
how
long
will
this
program
be
available?
Do
we
have
an
estimate
of
how
quickly
it
will
go.
H
We
will
work
on
setting
a
timeline
for
how
long
the
application
period
will
be
open,
we're
not
going
to
make
it
a
first
come
first
serve
type
of
deal.
What
I
will
say
is
that
the
county
left
it
open
for
a
relatively
short
amount
of
time,
and
we
feel
that
perhaps
our
residents
may
have
benefited
from
from
that
program.
More
of
our
residents
would
have
benefited
from
that
program.
H
B
Yeah
one
million
dollars
for
rental
assistance
here
in
the
city.
Thousands
is
certainly
a
significant
amount
of
money
and
we
think
we
can
help
at
least
a
couple
hundred
families
right,
melissa.
J
Yes,
I'm
trying
to
figure
out
the
lighting
here
because
I
am
outside.
I
can
you
I'm
I'm
we.
J
But
there.
J
J
Off
and
I
will
just
talk,
it
doesn't
matter-
thank
you
for
suggesting
to
increase
the
amount
to
our
resident
arts
organizations
as
well
as
really
other
arts
organizations.
Simply
because,
as
you
know,
mr
mayor,
the
arts
industry
is
in
the
fourth
phase
of
reopening
and
they
have
not
reopened.
J
Not
I
mean,
unlike
other
other
industries,
they
have
opened
and
then
closed
and
waiting
to
reopen
again.
The
fourth
phase
has
not
reopened
and
will
not
do
so.
In
a
while,
we
have
high
caliber
award-winning,
I
mean
tony
award-winning
nominated
musicians
and
la
phil
musicians,
driving
for
doordash
and
postmates
right
now.
I
just
want
you
to
know
that
everybody,
because
they
need
to
make
ends
meet,
and
the
least
we
can
do
is
increase
the
amount
five
thousand
dollars
per
resident
organization.
J
I
would
even
suggest
that
we
increase
it
to
10
000
per
resident
organization
only
because
the
our
starving
artist,
as
we
know
it
is
actually
hurting
so
much
more.
It
is.
It
is
not
only
artists,
it
is
teachers
who
teach
the
arts
who
are
hurting,
and
I
know
that
the
city
has
helped
in
the
past,
with
other
non-profit
organizations
such
as
senior
concerns
and
others
to
help
them
and
and
rightfully
so.
J
But
we
also
have
to
look
at
those
who
have
been
completely
overlooked
by
this
pandemic
or
in
this
pandemic.
So
if
we
could
increase
that
amount,
not
just
5
000
per
resident
organization,
but
perhaps
10
000
to
res
per
resident
organization,
so
that
they
can
actually
give
these
musicians
and
artists
and
singers
and
performers
a
job.
I
think
that
is
super
important.
B
Because
with
limited
funds
and
so
much
need
it's,
you
have
to
strike
a
balance
here.
Let
me
ask
the
city
manager
a
quick
question:
don't
we
have
a?
We
have
a
fund
for
the
arts
and
don't
you
usually
keep
about
ten
or
fifteen
thousand
in
there
for
quote-unquote
emergencies?
Did
I
get
that
right.
F
A
F
These
are
not
direct
cash
payments
to
the
organizations.
What
what
was
proposed
this
evening
for
the
three
resident
companies
was
ten
thousand.
I
think
I
I
heard
from
mayor
pro
tem
a
desire
or
from
mayor
adam
desire
for
additional
five
thousand
and
then
perhaps
from
mayor
pro
tem
desire
financial,
ten
thousand.
That
would
be
twenty
thousand
per
resident
company
total
of
sixty
thousand
dollars.
So
we
have
a
number
of
different
funds.
I
think
what
what
mayor
adam's
referencing
is
the
sort
of
set
aside.
F
L
D
Have
every
year
one
for
the
sports
facilities
grant
and
one
for
the
community
events
grant.
So,
as
ms
hurtado
mentioned,
we're
looking
to
repurpose
those
two
grant
funds
this
year,
each
of
those
grants
are
up
to
a
hundred
thousand
dollars.
Sometimes
we
only
appropriate
85
000,
leaving
that
15
000
available
for
emergency
purposes.
D
For
for
the
for
this
particular
program
that
we
were
talking
about,
it's
up
to
a
hundred
thousand.
B
D
B
F
It's
we
are
always
cautious
about
about
blending
as
it
relates
to
to
the
programs.
So
we
have
community
events
endowment
fund
and
you
have
the
sports
facilities
endowment
fund,
and
so
we
were
keeping
those
two
bifurcated.
You
see
a
resolution
and
as
part
of
this
action.
F
To
keep
it,
keep
it
formal
and
clean,
and
that
there's
a
chain
on
on
the
record
of
to
what
the
council's
action
has
been
this
year.
Remember
these
grant
funds
have
been
a
long-standing
tradition
for
for
the
city
and
they're
they're
governed
by
resolution.
So
you
know
actions
regarding
that.
Keeping
them
in
some
pockets
is
helpful
from
an
accounting
perspective,
correct.
B
And
as
mr
powers
mentioned,
these
aren't
outright
cash
grants
to
the
resident
companies
or
the
smaller
local
nonprofits.
These
are
simply
theater
credits.
So
when
they
come
back
to
us,
they
have
a
credit
versus
their
costs
to
perform
in
the
theater,
which
is
certainly,
you
know,
helpful
to
get
them
relaunched.
Okay.
Well,
let's
just
kind
of
keep
that
in
a
bands
for
a
moment
and
see.
If
mr
jones
has
some
comments.
C
No,
I'm
just
interested
in
all
these
figures
that
you're
throwing
around
here.
I
I'm
amenable
to
whatever
is
appropriate,
so
I'm
waiting
for
a
motion
all.
G
So
what
you're
proposing
then,
rather
than
the
I
think
we
had
a
ten
thousand
dollar
credit
for
the
resident
companies
and
the
balance
to
the
non
other
companies
that
are
non-profits
with
within
the
community.
Yes,.
G
G
Would
be
the
the
just?
So
basically
we
have
a
hundred
thousand
dollar
pot.
The
non-profit
companies
also
will
need
the
help
to
keep
going.
So
I'm
not
sure
how
far
we
should.
We
should
push
to
our
resident
companies
as
opposed
to
other
non-profits.
That
may
also
need
help
to
get
back
in
those
into
the
facilities
and
need
the
break
on
the
rent.
So
I'm
not
quite
sure
there
probably
is
a
sweet
spot,
but
I
I
don't
know
if
doubling
it
is
that
sweet
spot,
I'm
not
interested.
H
Mr
councilmember
angler,
if
I
can
just
make
a
comment
and
having
the
discussion
with
mr
serrett
when
looking
at
this
program
and
then
now
just
even
looking
at
the
fifteen
thousand
dollar
amount,
that's
being
proposed,
so
we
have
three
resident
companies.
One
of
them
will
easily
use
a
fifteen
thousand
dollars
pretty
quickly.
H
One
fifteen
thousand
dollars
would
cover
their
rent
for
the
entire
year
and
the
other
the
last
one
would
they
would
get
close
to
reaching
fifteen
thousand
dollars
worth
of
rent
during
the
year
if
the
performance
levels
would
were
to
remain
the
same.
H
H
That
could
be
that's
a
possibility
yeah
if
they
would
cover
two
two
groups:
rent
for
the
entire
year.
G
Just
I
just
want
a
quick,
quick
question
on
on
that
as
well.
Do
you
have
a
feel
for
the
non-profits
what
their
costs
would
be
and
how
they
would
benefit?
What
what
would
be
the
quote
sweet
spot
for
for
nonprofits.
F
So
before
melissa
responds
one
of
the
things
I
wanted
to
speak
to
regarding
the
non-profits
and
in
conversations
with
the
county,
you
know,
one
of
the
things
you
have
to
to
manage
against
here
is
where
the
need
exists,
and
so
there
is
some
some
value
and
some
perspective
on
putting
a
cap
in
place
and
then
having
that
cap,
we
we
would
see
where
the
need
comes
in
able
to
make
an
initial
grant.
F
This
is
how
the
county
ran
their
program,
and
then
they
were
able
to
go
back
and
get
additional
authorization
to
process
additional
grants
if
there
was
a
need,
if
they
were
over
extended-
and
there
was
a
need
greater
than
the
immediate
money
that
they
they
had,
that
may
be
one
thing
for
the
council
to
consider
as
it
relates
to
the
especially
to
the
social
service.
That's
a
much
wider
net
out
there.
F
Frankly,
the
the
cultural
arts
grants
as
well
the
especially
out
into
the
community,
the
non-profit,
based
piece
of
this.
You
know
we
are
going
to
need
to
book
a
variety
wide
variety
of
performances
that
are
profit
driven
performances
in
order
to
get
our
venue
back
on
its
feet.
F
We're
going
to
very
likely
have
gone
almost
an
entire
year
by
the
time
we
have
a
performance
here
and
so
ensuring
that
we're
not
creating
a
scenario
in
which
we
have
a
run
on
the
venue
that
fro
that
is
essentially
already
subsidized
by
city
dollars.
F
In
order
to
book
those
performances,
we
obviously
want
to
find
calendar
dates
for
those
entities
and
book
those
entities,
but
we're
also
going
to
have
a
real
need
to
get
revenue-based
performances
back
into
the
venue
so
that
we
can
be
able
to
stand
up
the
economics
of
the
theater
complex
as
well.
It's
just
something
I
want
to
make
sure
that
the
council
is
considering.
B
B
And
I
want
to
make
sure
that
the
money
we
give
them
will
have
an
impact
and
be
able
to
help
them
with
with
their
continuing
endeavors.
And
so.
B
The
impact
there
we're
talking,
I
think,
francine
sprigel-
is
the
one
that
might
be
identifying
some
of
these
social
service
organizations
and
she
said
that
maybe
10
might
be
identified.
Correct.
A
H
Initially,
that
was
the
the
count
that
we
came
up
with,
and
that
is
how
we
came
up
with
the
10
000
per
organization
as
well,
because
10
000
is,
while
it's
not
going
to
provide
it's
not
going
to
cover
their
programs,
it's
going
to
provide
a
decent
amount
of
help,
and
if
we
dilute
it
too
much,
we
don't
we
don't
want
to
have
to.
We
want
to
be
able
to
provide
enough
assistance
that
it'll
make
a
difference
in
their
program.
B
Yes,
exactly
exactly
so,
I
suppose
we
could
set
it
up
where
we
would
give
staff
latitude
based
on
need.
If
it
was
social
service
agency,
you
know,
might
be
better
served
with
twelve
thousand
dollars.
That
could
be
a
range.
Could
it
not.
F
F
Councilmember
jones,
I
was
just
indicating
that
we
would
ask
tonight
to
establish
some
ceiling-based
criteria
for
the
programs
financially
and
then
we
would
plan
to
return
to
the
city
council
seeking
additional
authority
as
needed,
rather
than
just
delegating
that
authority
and-
and
that's
because
there'll
be
a
number
of
variables
at
play
and
in
watching
the
county
and
talking
to
the
county
with
their
program.
That
was
the
approach
that
they
took
as
well.
B
All
right,
well
with
that
in
mind,
then,
and
to
give
you
some
latitude,
could
we
get
back
to
what
I
suggested
originally
15
000
per
residential,
a
resident
company,
fifteen
thousand
for
the
local
nonprofits,
and
these
numbers
could
be
adjusted.
B
H
Quite
get
that
so
the
resident
organizations
the
resident
companies
would
receive
15
000,
rent
credits
for
use
of
the
venues
and
the
the
non-profit,
local
performing
arts
groups
would
be
allocated
fifteen
thousand
dollars
to
use
towards
rent
credits,
which,
based
on
the
estimates
and
looking
at
the
number
of
organizations
as
as
defined
there,
we
would
likely
see
about
ten.
So
it
is
very
likely
that
15
000
would
be
just
fitting
for
for
that
purpose.
If
we
were
to
provide
1500
of
rental
credits
to
each.
B
J
Well
for
the
arts
only
because
we
have,
as
I
mentioned
the
artists
in
phase
four,
which
hasn't
even
been
talked
about,
because
we're.
J
Phase
two
right,
so
I
was
just
wondering
whether
then,
that
latitude
could
be
extended
to
to
the
arts
so.
F
I
think
what
I
would
say,
I'm
looking
at
I'm
looking
at
our
director,
jonathan
sarrit,
and
I
I
think
certainly
yes,
for
we
recognize
that
there's
challenges
and
that
we
will
need
to
contemplate
things
with
the
arts
groups.
I
think
what
I
would
suggest,
perhaps
to
the
council
tonight,
to
ensure
that
we
we
understand
the
landscape
as
it
takes
shape
next
year,
is,
is
that
we
stick
with
the
the
recommendation
at
the
15
and
then
allow
us
to
really
understand
when
we're
able
to
get
back
in
business.
F
The
the
theater
enterprise
is
a
is
a
real
ongoing
challenge
for
us
yeah
having
a
venue
that
is
an
enterprise
fund,
while
the
city
as
a
whole
is
performing
very
well
financially.
Having
a
venue
that
is
an
enterprise
fund
dependent
on
revenues
from
from
performances
and
rentals
to
be
completely
vacant
is
a
real
challenge.
We
have
to
balance
that
to
ensure
that
that
venue
remains
available
to
to
these
resident
companies
and
and
others
in
our
in
our
community,
and
so
just
always
striking
to
achieve
that
balance.
J
No,
I
was
I'm
sorry,
mr
mayor,
I
was
just
going
to
say
I
I
do
I'm
appreciative
of
that
and
and
and
that's
really
all
I
wanted
to
say.
B
Okay,
well,
what
I'm
hearing
then
and
is
that
well
number
one?
Let's
not
lose
sight
of
even
the
bigger
program
here,
which
is
a
million
dollars
in
rental
assistance
to
some
of
our
our
residents.
That
is,
I
believe
we
are
the
only
city
in
the
county,
that's
in
the
position
to
do
that
and
which
just
again
cites
the
great
fiscal
management
we
have
here
in
the
city.
There's
there'll
be
no
reduction
of
services
or
anything
to
do
that.
B
We
have
that
money
set
aside.
It's
in
a
community
benefit
account
and
now
we're
going
to
use
it
because
there's
a
need-
and
this
will
be
a
community
benefit.
This
will
keep
people
in
their
homes
and
I
can't
think
of
a
better
way
to
spend
that
money
and
as
far
as
the
other
business,
it's
not
what
I'm
hearing
and
maybe
we
can
craft
a
motion.
B
15
000
a
piece
for
our
resident
companies,
fifteen
thousand
for
approximately
ten,
smaller
local
non-profits
and
then
identifying
roughly
ten
social
service
agencies
for
ten
thousand
a
piece
and
and
claudia
as
we
said
you
and
I
both
want
to
see
latitude
with
these
numbers
to
be
able
to
come
back
to
us.
If
there's
a
identified
need.
B
And
we
do
have
a
speaker
great.
So,
let's
yeah,
let's
go
to
the
speaker
and.
B
J
I
will
move
to
approve
the
recommendation,
then
this
is
mayor,
protem
bill
de
la
pena
and
with
all
the
discussions
included
as
to
the
latitude
given
to
other
organizations,.
D
H
Unfortunately,
we
just
got
information
from
the
county
today
and
it
surprised
us
a
little
bit
so
we'll
be
working
with
the
county.
We
believe
it's
just
some
calculation
cost
and
number
of
hours
needed
a
number
of
license
or
users
licensed
users
needed,
so
we'll
be
working
with
that,
and
if
we
cannot
negotiate
a
reasonable
price,
we
will
look
to
our
in-house
I.t
staff.
We
just
want
to
make
sure
we
can
get
this
done
quickly,
which
we
think
we
can
do.
B
B
And
we
do
have
a
leg
up
because
the
software's
there,
so
we
don't
have
to
reinvent
it
and
it'll
help
us
get
the
money
out
quickly.
All
right!
So
there's
a
motion
on
the
floor
and
just
maybe
I
should
restate
it:
15
000
per
resident
company
15
000
for
approximately
10,
smaller
non-profits
and
100
000
for
approximately
10
social
service
agencies,
with
staff
latitude
to
come
back
to
us
with
extra
need
and
put
that
in
front
of
us.
B
G
I
would
say
yes,
mr
mayor,
but
I
want
to
make
a
quick
comment.
I
think
we
had
a
a
presentation
earlier
tonight
about
our
fine
a
grade
as
far
as
a
well-run
city,
I
think,
having
the
ability
to
do.
This
is
a
nexus
right
back
to
that
and
I'm
happy
to
vote.
I
wish
there
was
more
money
we
could
could
devote
to
these.
These
very
worthy
activities.
D
J
My
answer
will
be
yes
and
I'm
very
thankful
that
the
city
of
thousand
oaks
is
in
a
position
to
help
not
only
those
who
may
need
rental
assistance,
but
also
non-profit
organizations
which
help
our
seniors
and
others
in
need,
but
also
those
that
industry,
the
arts
and
entertainment
industry,
which
has
not
been
able
to
really
open
up
until
phase
four
and
there
will
they
will
be
hurting
the
mo.
I
mean
not
the
most
necessarily
but
hurting
quite
a
bit
and
needs
to
be
taken
into
consideration
as
well.
J
So
I
appreciate
the
latitude
that
will
be
given
to
the
face
for
industry.
Thank
you.
J
B
F
