Do we have --

40
02:49:02,642 --> 02:49:04,511
>> the clerk: yes, we have

41

Melissa tolled by followed by a

43
02:49:20,594 --> 02:49:41,348
Debbie.

44
02:49:41,348 --> 02:49:55,128
Let me get you a microphone.

45
02:49:55,128 --> 02:49:59,666
Test one two three, test.

46
02:49:59,666 --> 02:50:00,567
>> good evening.

47
02:50:00,567 --> 02:50:17,751
Can you hear me?

48
02:50:17,751 --> 02:50:20,253
>> good evening, I have three

49
02:50:20,253 --> 02:50:21,288
Things to say.

50
02:50:21,288 --> 02:50:23,690
I would like to have a

51
02:50:23,690 --> 02:50:25,759
Councilmember to move number

52
02:50:25,759 --> 02:50:29,830
Five to number 10, I know these

53
02:50:29,830 --> 02:50:30,931
Meetings usually go long so I

54
02:50:30,931 --> 02:50:33,633
Just wanted to get that moved

55
02:50:33,633 --> 02:50:33,867
Up.

56
02:50:33,867 --> 02:50:35,836
The next thing I would like is,

57
02:50:35,836 --> 02:50:39,673
There was discussion at the end

58
02:50:39,673 --> 02:50:43,210
Of 2025 and I think I brought it

59
02:50:43,210 --> 02:50:46,480
Up at the beginning of 2026.

60
02:50:46,480 --> 02:50:52,319
No -- end of 24, begin of 2025.

61
02:50:52,319 --> 02:50:55,689
That I wanted you guys to put

62
02:50:55,689 --> 02:50:58,525
The eminent domain a vacant

63
02:50:58,525 --> 02:51:00,093
Building and lots on the agenda.

64
02:51:00,093 --> 02:51:02,262
We had started talking about

65
02:51:02,262 --> 02:51:04,431
That previous council.

66
02:51:04,431 --> 02:51:06,633
And it was something that we, I

67
02:51:06,633 --> 02:51:08,702
Think they have started looking

68
02:51:08,702 --> 02:51:09,269
Into.

69
02:51:09,269 --> 02:51:11,671
Was all the, you know, was all

70
02:51:11,671 --> 02:51:13,306
Needed to be able to do this.

71
02:51:13,306 --> 02:51:17,144
So I would like the eminent

72
02:51:17,144 --> 02:51:19,312
Domain to have some research

73
02:51:19,312 --> 02:51:22,082
Done or whatever to bring that

74
02:51:22,082 --> 02:51:24,117
Back on vacant buildings and

75
02:51:24,117 --> 02:51:26,019
Lots here in antioch that can be

76
02:51:26,019 --> 02:51:27,220
Built on.

77
02:51:27,220 --> 02:51:30,257
You know, bought by people in

78
02:51:30,257 --> 02:51:32,692
Antioch and used.

79
02:51:32,692 --> 02:51:33,894
For, you know, either homes or

80
02:51:33,894 --> 02:51:35,428
For businesses or something if

81
02:51:35,428 --> 02:51:37,697
They want to have their own.

82
02:51:37,697 --> 02:51:39,866
And then the third comment I

83
02:51:39,866 --> 02:51:41,668
Wanted to make, oh I got a lot

84
02:51:41,668 --> 02:51:45,906
Of time -- is that -- where is

85
02:51:45,906 --> 02:51:47,440
The police chief.

86
02:51:47,440 --> 02:51:49,409
I’m disappointed in the antioch

87
02:51:49,409 --> 02:51:49,843
Police department.

88
02:51:49,843 --> 02:51:52,179
I rally for them to get their

89
02:51:52,179 --> 02:51:54,014
Funding, I pushed, I carried

90
02:51:54,014 --> 02:51:56,116
Identity, I cheer lead for them

91
02:51:56,116 --> 02:51:58,385
And everything for every time

92
02:51:58,385 --> 02:52:02,222
They want funding I cheer led.

93
02:52:02,222 --> 02:52:04,458
Yet when we had our hit and run

94
02:52:04,458 --> 02:52:05,692
In december they did thought get

95
02:52:05,692 --> 02:52:07,461
There until two minutes after

96
02:52:07,461 --> 02:52:08,562
That guy took off.

97
02:52:08,562 --> 02:52:10,764
We showed them videos, they had

98
02:52:10,764 --> 02:52:12,399
All the information.

99
02:52:12,399 --> 02:52:14,901
They claimed they were putting

100
02:52:14,901 --> 02:52:17,070
A, whatever you call a b

101
02:52:17,070 --> 02:52:18,205
Oampletlo or something out on

102
02:52:18,205 --> 02:52:19,840
Him but he wasn’t picked up.

103
02:52:19,840 --> 02:52:21,174
And when he came back through

104
02:52:21,174 --> 02:52:22,809
The neighborhood we called him

105
02:52:22,809 --> 02:52:25,345
And we were told oh well we’re

106
02:52:25,345 --> 02:52:27,848
Not going to arrest him now

107
02:52:27,848 --> 02:52:30,450
Because we can’t goat him on the

108
02:52:30,450 --> 02:52:30,684
D.u.I.

109
02:52:30,684 --> 02:52:33,520
And I’m like, but he hit and ran

110
02:52:33,520 --> 02:52:35,155
Us and there’s injuries.

111
02:52:35,155 --> 02:52:40,660
And so I’m just really

112
02:52:40,660 --> 02:52:54,274
Disappointed.

113
02:52:54,274 --> 02:52:57,310
I rallied for them, I’m in a

114
02:52:57,310 --> 02:52:59,513
Wheelchair, I will walk again

115
02:52:59,513 --> 02:53:02,315
But I’m in a wheelchair.

116
02:53:02,315 --> 02:53:05,619
I had serious surge, and it was

117
02:53:05,619 --> 02:53:05,786
Bad.

118
02:53:05,786 --> 02:53:07,354
I would like them to be put on

119
02:53:07,354 --> 02:53:09,222
The agenda to answer to me under

120
02:53:09,222 --> 02:53:10,357
To other people.

121
02:53:10,357 --> 02:53:12,626
I’m sure there’s other people

122
02:53:12,626 --> 02:53:13,827
Saying things.

123
02:53:13,827 --> 02:53:16,663
So I guess the agenda matter for

124
02:53:16,663 --> 02:53:17,764
People who have complaints.

125
02:53:17,764 --> 02:53:20,167
We need to hear the people speak

126
02:53:20,167 --> 02:53:21,334
Here in these chambers.

127
02:53:21,334 --> 02:53:23,036
And I will be one of them to

128
02:53:23,036 --> 02:53:25,338
Speak if we can get that on the

129
02:53:25,338 --> 02:53:26,673
Agenda in the future agenda.

130
02:53:26,673 --> 02:53:30,143
Thank you.

131
02:53:30,143 --> 02:53:43,423

138
02:53:57,604 --> 02:53:57,838
Things.

139
02:53:57,838 --> 02:53:59,072
First of all we have done a

140
02:53:59,072 --> 02:54:00,807
Little bit of rebranding and

141
02:54:00,807 --> 02:54:03,076

152
02:54:33,773 --> 02:54:35,642
So this weekend is our first

153
02:54:35,642 --> 02:54:37,811
Kind of big event that we have

154
02:54:37,811 --> 02:54:40,413
28 business so far and still

155
02:54:40,413 --> 02:54:42,916
Counting, that will be

156
02:54:42,916 --> 02:54:46,453
Participating in a st. Patty’s

157
02:54:46,453 --> 02:54:47,354
Day word search.

158
02:54:47,354 --> 02:54:49,089

160
02:54:50,390 --> 02:54:53,260
Balloon and there will be words

161
02:54:53,260 --> 02:54:55,962
On shamrocks that the winners

162
02:54:55,962 --> 02:54:59,032
Will be judged on how creative

163
02:54:59,032 --> 02:55:00,133
Sentences and stories that they

164
02:55:00,133 --> 02:55:02,369
Will create from these shamrocks

165
02:55:02,369 --> 02:55:03,804
That are in the windows.

166
02:55:03,804 --> 02:55:06,239
So we would like everybody to

02:55:06,239 --> 02:55:07,774
Come downtown, shop at your

02:55:07,774 --> 02:55:09,876
Favorite stores and put in an

169
02:55:09,876 --> 02:55:11,745
Entry for creative stories and

170
02:55:11,745 --> 02:55:12,279
That.

02:55:12,279 --> 02:55:13,814
So we hope that the families

172
02:55:13,814 --> 02:55:14,080
Will come.

173
02:55:14,080 --> 02:55:16,216
I did this a number of years

174
02:55:16,216 --> 02:55:16,550
Back.

175
02:55:16,550 --> 02:55:17,984
And the stories and the

176
02:55:17,984 --> 02:55:20,387
Sentences were quite

177
02:55:20,387 --> 02:55:21,688
Entertaining and that.

178
02:55:21,688 --> 02:55:25,325
So there’s prizes, and some of

179
02:55:25,325 --> 02:55:27,160
The stores then will be

End of the month and we really

189
02:55:48,815 --> 02:55:52,519

I had a whole speech prepared

But I am not going to follow

267
02:58:38,685 --> 02:58:41,955
That speech today.

268
02:58:41,955 --> 02:58:46,126
I am a very disappointed in the

269
02:58:46,126 --> 02:58:49,596
Mayor.

270
02:58:49,596 --> 02:58:53,600
To even think that we would have

271
02:58:53,600 --> 02:58:56,837
A second thought on homekey, to

272
02:58:56,837 --> 02:59:00,140
Even think that we would have a

273
02:59:00,140 --> 02:59:01,875
Second question --

274
02:59:01,875 --> 02:59:03,410
>> mayor bernal: excuse me,

275
02:59:03,410 --> 02:59:05,178
Crystal there is an agenda item

276
02:59:05,178 --> 02:59:05,412
About --

277
02:59:05,412 --> 02:59:07,114
>> that is not what I’m talking

278
02:59:07,114 --> 02:59:07,481
About further.

279
02:59:07,481 --> 02:59:09,649
>> mayor bernal: okay.

280
02:59:09,649 --> 02:59:12,052
>> so to even think that there

281
02:59:12,052 --> 02:59:14,921
Would be a second thought on any

282
02:59:14,921 --> 02:59:16,423
Of that.

283
02:59:16,423 --> 02:59:20,760
But yet we’re out here, we are

284
02:59:20,760 --> 02:59:22,896
Doing photo ops, we’re getting

285
02:59:22,896 --> 02:59:24,965
In front of cameras which is

286
02:59:24,965 --> 02:59:25,165
Great.

287
02:59:25,165 --> 02:59:26,500
You know, you are doing your

288
02:59:26,500 --> 02:59:27,534
Job, right?

289
02:59:27,534 --> 02:59:30,770
But I don’t see -- I don’t see

290
02:59:30,770 --> 02:59:33,406
The accomplish -- I don’t see

291
02:59:33,406 --> 02:59:34,908
What you’re actually physically

292
02:59:34,908 --> 02:59:36,777
Doing in any of it.

293
02:59:36,777 --> 02:59:40,714
And I’m coming down because it’s

294
02:59:40,714 --> 02:59:43,016
Upsetting to me to think that

295
02:59:43,016 --> 02:59:46,186
You’re reaping the benefits of

296
02:59:46,186 --> 02:59:47,053
Everything that the other city

297
02:59:47,053 --> 02:59:47,721
Council did.

298
02:59:47,721 --> 02:59:51,158
But you get to get, you know,

299
02:59:51,158 --> 02:59:55,829
All the congratulations for it.

300
02:59:55,829 --> 02:59:57,130
It’s -- look, we all have to

301
02:59:57,130 --> 02:59:57,898
Work together.

302
02:59:57,898 --> 03:00:00,534
One of your interview questions

303
03:00:00,534 --> 03:00:03,270
From me for apoc was how do you

304
03:00:03,270 --> 03:00:04,805
Work well, how do you work

305
03:00:04,805 --> 03:00:07,207
Together with people who you --

306
03:00:07,207 --> 03:00:08,642
Who you don’t, you know, or

307
03:00:08,642 --> 03:00:09,709
Can’t get along with.

308
03:00:09,709 --> 03:00:12,479
I want to ask you that same

309
03:00:12,479 --> 03:00:12,846
Question.

310
03:00:12,846 --> 03:00:17,818
I want to see where is the

311
03:00:17,818 --> 03:00:19,119
Christianity when we have people

312
03:00:19,119 --> 03:00:21,822
Out here suffering and can’t --

313
03:00:21,822 --> 03:00:23,490
Don’t have places to live.

314
03:00:23,490 --> 03:00:29,629
And yet, their cause are still

315
03:00:29,629 --> 03:00:29,930
Being taken.

316
03:00:29,930 --> 03:00:32,566
I want to know where is it at?

317
03:00:32,566 --> 03:00:35,001
You say he up pa thighs with

318
03:00:35,001 --> 03:00:36,536
People and you’ve been there, I

319
03:00:36,536 --> 03:00:38,305
Just don’t see any type of

320
03:00:38,305 --> 03:00:38,538
Empathy.

321
03:00:38,538 --> 03:00:40,273
I see you going for your voters.

322
03:00:40,273 --> 03:00:44,711
I see you going and being a --

323
03:00:44,711 --> 03:00:47,280
You know, working with the, you

324
03:00:47,280 --> 03:00:49,116
Know, whatever they want.

325
03:00:49,116 --> 03:00:50,784
You can’t do both sides.

326
03:00:50,784 --> 03:00:53,186
This isn’t a game anymore.

327
03:00:53,186 --> 03:01:01,328
We need help out here.

328
03:01:01,328 --> 03:01:01,595
[applause]

329
03:01:01,595 --> 03:01:10,670
>> the clerk: melissa.

330
03:01:10,670 --> 03:01:11,972
>> I guess I’ll start off by

331
03:01:11,972 --> 03:01:15,709
Saying I have noticed a great

332
03:01:15,709 --> 03:01:17,778
Improvement on the dais about

333
03:01:17,778 --> 03:01:19,212
Attitudes and talking to

334
03:01:19,212 --> 03:01:19,746
Community members.

335
03:01:19,746 --> 03:01:21,715
And I do appreciate that, this

336
03:01:21,715 --> 03:01:24,451
Last year.

337
03:01:24,451 --> 03:01:25,452
And I also really appreciate

338
03:01:25,452 --> 03:01:27,287
When I reach out to people they

339
03:01:27,287 --> 03:01:30,423
Actually get back to me.

340
03:01:30,423 --> 03:01:32,459
That is -- even if it’s a thank

341
03:01:32,459 --> 03:01:34,394
You, I just saw this, thank you

342
03:01:34,394 --> 03:01:35,162
For saying something.

343
03:01:35,162 --> 03:01:38,131
For those I don’t reach out, you

344
03:01:38,131 --> 03:01:39,666
Can reach out to me because I’ve

345
03:01:39,666 --> 03:01:41,301
Done that already.

346
03:01:41,301 --> 03:01:44,571
The worst things, there are some

347
03:01:44,571 --> 03:01:46,239
Things I’m concerned about and

348
03:01:46,239 --> 03:01:48,508
One things I reached out this

349
03:01:48,508 --> 03:01:52,679
Last week is losing zack sale.

350
03:01:52,679 --> 03:01:54,548
That really concerned me because

351
03:01:54,548 --> 03:01:55,982
Economic development needs to be

352
03:01:55,982 --> 03:01:57,617
A very proactive in this city

353
03:01:57,617 --> 03:01:59,486
Right now because we need to

354
03:01:59,486 --> 03:02:01,321
Generate revenue.

355
03:02:01,321 --> 03:02:03,190
And as elections approach I hope

356
03:02:03,190 --> 03:02:04,825
Our community can rally around

357
03:02:04,825 --> 03:02:06,893
The civil and productive

358
03:02:06,893 --> 03:02:08,462
Discourse on these issues.

359
03:02:08,462 --> 03:02:10,497
And my vote will be going to the

360
03:02:10,497 --> 03:02:13,600
One because d-4 and d-1 are up

361
03:02:13,600 --> 03:02:14,501
For election.

362
03:02:14,501 --> 03:02:16,770
I’m in d-4.

363
03:02:16,770 --> 03:02:18,939
My vote will be going to the one

364
03:02:18,939 --> 03:02:22,676
I them can move this city

365
03:02:22,676 --> 03:02:25,178
Forward fiscally, say what you

366
03:02:25,178 --> 03:02:29,015
Want about lamar, he had ideas,

367
03:02:29,015 --> 03:02:30,650
He didn’t treat people well but

368
03:02:30,650 --> 03:02:31,485
He had ideas.

369
03:02:31,485 --> 03:02:32,953
That’s the one positive.

370
03:02:32,953 --> 03:02:35,255
So my question to those that I

371
03:02:35,255 --> 03:02:37,023
Have been advocating for and

372
03:02:37,023 --> 03:02:38,658
Those who ran on economic

373
03:02:38,658 --> 03:02:40,494
Development, what is your plan?

374
03:02:40,494 --> 03:02:42,696
Because I haven’t seen any plans

375
03:02:42,696 --> 03:02:45,999
Or any ideas, you know, from

376
03:02:45,999 --> 03:02:46,199
You.

377
03:02:46,199 --> 03:02:47,868
On social media, or when we talk

378
03:02:47,868 --> 03:02:49,035
One on one.

379
03:02:49,035 --> 03:02:50,704
And I’d like you to address that

380
03:02:50,704 --> 03:02:52,339
Tonight in your closing

381
03:02:52,339 --> 03:02:52,606
Comments.

382
03:02:52,606 --> 03:02:54,841
Because right now when it comes

383
03:02:54,841 --> 03:02:56,710
To economic development I’m

384
03:02:56,710 --> 03:02:59,246
Giving this council an f.

385
03:02:59,246 --> 03:03:00,881
And there’s still time for final

386
03:03:00,881 --> 03:03:02,249
Grading in 2028.

387
03:03:02,249 --> 03:03:04,050
So I’m hoping that we can turn

388
03:03:04,050 --> 03:03:06,119
This around.

389
03:03:06,119 --> 03:03:09,289
Like I said in 2026 I’ll be

390
03:03:09,289 --> 03:03:11,691
Looking for counts who are just

391
03:03:11,691 --> 03:03:15,428
Not good for rhetoric but bring

392
03:03:15,428 --> 03:03:19,466
Real plans real ideas and I’ll

393
03:03:19,466 --> 03:03:21,101
Be strong advocates for those

394
03:03:21,101 --> 03:03:21,668
Letters.

395
03:03:21,668 --> 03:03:23,470
Regardless of personal feeling

396
03:03:23,470 --> 03:03:30,577
For any candidate I think any

397
03:03:30,577 --> 03:03:31,645
Antiochian, how consistently

398
03:03:31,645 --> 03:03:33,079
They have shown up for antioch

399
03:03:33,079 --> 03:03:34,915
And what they have done to try

400
03:03:34,915 --> 03:03:36,049
To improve our city.

401
03:03:36,049 --> 03:03:38,118
I want to redane the hope that I

402
03:03:38,118 --> 03:03:39,986
Once had in this council’s

403
03:03:39,986 --> 03:03:42,155
Ability to lead proactively and

404
03:03:42,155 --> 03:03:43,690
Make antioch a city we can all

405
03:03:43,690 --> 03:03:45,792
Be proud of especially regarding

406
03:03:45,792 --> 03:03:46,460
Economic development.

407
03:03:46,460 --> 03:03:48,328
Because I think that is our next

408
03:03:48,328 --> 03:03:49,830
Step.

409
03:03:49,830 --> 03:03:50,564
Thank you.

410
03:03:50,564 --> 03:03:51,798

411
03:03:51,798 --> 03:03:52,866
>> the clerk: there is no

412
03:03:52,866 --> 03:03:54,534

415
03:03:58,805 --> 03:04:11,418
Is there more coming down?

416
03:04:11,418 --> 03:04:13,453
>> thank you.

417
03:04:13,453 --> 03:04:14,488
Good evening, council and city

418
03:04:14,488 --> 03:04:16,089
Of antioch.

419
03:04:16,089 --> 03:04:19,926
First, I wanted to address, you

420
03:04:19,926 --> 03:04:22,929
Spoke about the golf course, the

421
03:04:22,929 --> 03:04:25,432
Golf course gave us a check for

422
03:04:25,432 --> 03:04:27,501
$20,000 but a few months ago you

423
03:04:27,501 --> 03:04:31,104
Guys agreed to pay off their

424
03:04:31,104 --> 03:04:32,539
30-year debt.

425
03:04:32,539 --> 03:04:32,973
Okay?

426
03:04:32,973 --> 03:04:34,508
So we’re stuck with this golf

427
03:04:34,508 --> 03:04:36,576
Course company for 30 years.

428
03:04:36,576 --> 03:04:38,245
And if 30 of you guys have

429
03:04:38,245 --> 03:04:39,713
Played the golf course it used

430
03:04:39,713 --> 03:04:42,249
To be one of the best in the bay

431
03:04:42,249 --> 03:04:42,449
Area.

432
03:04:42,449 --> 03:04:45,218
You used to have to wait an hour

433
03:04:45,218 --> 03:04:47,821
And a half to get on the tee

434
03:04:47,821 --> 03:04:51,057
Time just like it is in concord

435
03:04:51,057 --> 03:04:52,259
At the apple creek.

436
03:04:52,259 --> 03:04:53,894
It is a money maker.

437
03:04:53,894 --> 03:04:55,796
It’s all gone to hell.

438
03:04:55,796 --> 03:05:01,034
Like bad decisions by the dais,

439
03:05:01,034 --> 03:05:01,368
Okay?

440
03:05:01,368 --> 03:05:04,237
The chief’s remarks last week,

441
03:05:04,237 --> 03:05:04,738
Okay?

442
03:05:04,738 --> 03:05:07,440
The chief gave a nice report.

443
03:05:07,440 --> 03:05:08,642
First of all he’s talking about

444
03:05:08,642 --> 03:05:10,277
The total amount of calls that

445
03:05:10,277 --> 03:05:12,012
The police handle.

446
03:05:12,012 --> 03:05:12,212
Okay?

447
03:05:12,212 --> 03:05:13,413
Thousands of them.

448
03:05:13,413 --> 03:05:16,383
Maybe thousands of them a day.

449
03:05:16,383 --> 03:05:18,919
Look at all these calls, wow

450
03:05:18,919 --> 03:05:20,454
They’re really working hard but

451
03:05:20,454 --> 03:05:22,656
Then you know he gets a few

452
03:05:22,656 --> 03:05:23,857
Questions from the public and

453
03:05:23,857 --> 03:05:27,360
It’s like well, with when

454
03:05:27,360 --> 03:05:29,129
Somebody fires off a shot it’s

455
03:05:29,129 --> 03:05:31,965
Like, you know, at your house

456
03:05:31,965 --> 03:05:34,734
When somebody fires off a shot

457
03:05:34,734 --> 03:05:37,337
Sometimes five people call in.

458
03:05:37,337 --> 03:05:41,174
Somebody driving by they’ll call

459
03:05:41,174 --> 03:05:41,608
9/11.

460
03:05:41,608 --> 03:05:44,010
Somebody who saw it happen

461
03:05:44,010 --> 03:05:46,847
They’ll call 9/11.

462
03:05:46,847 --> 03:05:48,281
One incident end up with a lot

463
03:05:48,281 --> 03:05:49,015
Of calls.

464
03:05:49,015 --> 03:05:50,450
Looks like the police are doing

465
03:05:50,450 --> 03:05:53,386
A lot of work but they’re not.

466
03:05:53,386 --> 03:05:55,055
They barely get out of their

467
03:05:55,055 --> 03:05:55,722
Car.

468
03:05:55,722 --> 03:05:57,390
I remember, you know, when

469
03:05:57,390 --> 03:05:58,792
People first started making

470
03:05:58,792 --> 03:06:04,898
Videos of police, the --

471
03:06:04,898 --> 03:06:07,100
Somebody goat beaten up down in

472
03:06:07,100 --> 03:06:08,201
L.a. And somebody photographed

473
03:06:08,201 --> 03:06:09,603
It and then pretty much the

474
03:06:09,603 --> 03:06:11,471
Police were afraid to get out of

475
03:06:11,471 --> 03:06:12,772
Their car.

476
03:06:12,772 --> 03:06:15,408
Because they didn’t want to end

477
03:06:15,408 --> 03:06:19,880
Up own youtube that on youtube

478
03:06:19,880 --> 03:06:22,849
And when I take bart to work, I

479
03:06:22,849 --> 03:06:26,153
Go by the concord police

480
03:06:26,153 --> 03:06:26,453
Station.

481
03:06:26,453 --> 03:06:28,989
And I -- every time I go by

482
03:06:28,989 --> 03:06:31,625
There, there’s six shiny

483
03:06:31,625 --> 03:06:33,493
Brand-new motorcycles.

484
03:06:33,493 --> 03:06:36,763
And they’re just waiting for the

485
03:06:36,763 --> 03:06:38,799
Morning, when six motorcycle

486
03:06:38,799 --> 03:06:40,700
Cops show up to work and they go

487
03:06:40,700 --> 03:06:42,035
Through concord and they make

488
03:06:42,035 --> 03:06:43,837
The city safe.

489
03:06:43,837 --> 03:06:47,474
The cops on the motorcycles,

490
03:06:47,474 --> 03:06:49,109
They’re giving the information

491
03:06:49,109 --> 03:06:51,645
To the dispatcher, they are like

492
03:06:51,645 --> 03:06:53,613
The eyes and the ears of the

493
03:06:53,613 --> 03:06:53,914
Police.

494
03:06:53,914 --> 03:06:56,049
You call it a traffic division,

495
03:06:56,049 --> 03:06:58,852
One officer, is that a division?

496
03:06:58,852 --> 03:07:00,954
Let’s call it a traffic duo,

497
03:07:00,954 --> 03:07:03,156
Okay, because we have no traffic

498
03:07:03,156 --> 03:07:04,891

For five seconds.

That is our representative.

504
03:07:10,864 --> 03:07:13,433
He is afraid to drive his car

505
03:07:13,433 --> 03:07:15,302
When the light turns green.

506
03:07:15,302 --> 03:07:22,909

1026
03:27:06,593 --> 03:27:06,927

03:27:06,927 --> 03:27:09,095
There’s money coming down from

1028
03:27:09,095 --> 03:27:12,032

Antioch.

1042
03:27:31,451 --> 03:27:33,487
If we aren’t in the room then

1043
03:27:33,487 --> 03:27:36,857
Our issues will not be

1044
03:27:36,857 --> 03:27:37,357
Addressed.

1045
03:27:37,357 --> 03:27:39,126
So I really encourage us to stay

1046
03:27:39,126 --> 03:27:41,094
In the loop with the county and

03:27:41,995 --> 03:27:43,763
Continue to get those dollars

03:27:43,763 --> 03:27:45,265
Here in our city to support us.

1050
03:27:45,265 --> 03:27:46,466
And that is it.

1051
03:27:46,466 --> 03:27:47,601
>> mayor bernal: all right,

Thank you mayor.

1056
03:27:53,607 --> 03:27:54,975
Delta diablo meets tomorrow but

1057
03:27:54,975 --> 03:27:56,777
In the meantime a few weeks ago

1058
03:27:56,777 --> 03:27:58,512
I traveled with a delegation of

1059
03:27:58,512 --> 03:28:06,520
The board of delta adobe diablo

1060
03:28:06,520 --> 03:28:11,458
Our casta dc plant.

1061
03:28:11,458 --> 03:28:13,827
We service pittsburg and baibt

1062
03:28:13,827 --> 03:28:15,996
Which is unincorporated voskt.

1063
03:28:15,996 --> 03:28:19,566
And this city is embarking on a

1064
03:28:19,566 --> 03:28:22,836
$38 million secondary processing

1065
03:28:22,836 --> 03:28:25,572
Plant, which includes the

1066
03:28:25,572 --> 03:28:27,240
Antioch substation, very old,

1067
03:28:27,240 --> 03:28:28,975
Needs a lot of repair.

1068
03:28:28,975 --> 03:28:37,884
We traveled to d.c. And spoke to

1069
03:28:37,884 --> 03:28:43,957
Congressman garamendi and

1070
03:28:43,957 --> 03:28:44,291
Desaulnier.

1071
03:28:44,291 --> 03:28:46,460
It looks like they are very

1072
03:28:46,460 --> 03:28:48,995
Interested in getting some

1073
03:28:48,995 --> 03:28:50,730
Earmarks, not guaranteed but we

1074
03:28:50,730 --> 03:28:52,065
Might get some earmark dollars

1075
03:28:52,065 --> 03:28:54,034
To help with that station.

1076
03:28:54,034 --> 03:28:55,869
As the mayor knows the pump

1077
03:28:55,869 --> 03:28:57,804
Station is pretty old, has two

1078
03:28:57,804 --> 03:29:00,640
To three miles of pipeline that

1079
03:29:00,640 --> 03:29:02,309
Goes out that is very old.

1080
03:29:02,309 --> 03:29:05,779
We had some issues during a

1081
03:29:05,779 --> 03:29:07,881
Couple of rainstorms ago that

1082
03:29:07,881 --> 03:29:10,050
Pump station which pretty much

1083
03:29:10,050 --> 03:29:12,752
Impacts everybody here in

1084
03:29:12,752 --> 03:29:14,221
Antioch definitely needs some

1085
03:29:14,221 --> 03:29:15,088
Funding.

1086
03:29:15,088 --> 03:29:17,390
We may potentially get funding

1087
03:29:17,390 --> 03:29:21,328
From that for us patterning with

1088
03:29:21,328 --> 03:29:22,295
Delta diablo.

1089
03:29:22,295 --> 03:29:24,264
I will keep the council posted

1090
03:29:24,264 --> 03:29:24,498
On that.

1091
03:29:24,498 --> 03:29:26,466
Also I was able to attend last

1092
03:29:26,466 --> 03:29:27,667
Week the city of antioch had a

1093
03:29:27,667 --> 03:29:29,136
Meeting of all administrative

1094
03:29:29,136 --> 03:29:29,436
Assistants.

1095
03:29:29,436 --> 03:29:31,905
So I was able to stick my head

1096
03:29:31,905 --> 03:29:33,907
In, say hello, see what they’re

1097
03:29:33,907 --> 03:29:35,041
Talking about, what their

1098
03:29:35,041 --> 03:29:36,510
Concerns and what they’re

1099
03:29:36,510 --> 03:29:38,945
Working on so that was really

1100
03:29:38,945 --> 03:29:39,713
Enlightening meeting.

1101
03:29:39,713 --> 03:29:42,115
And then also, coming up I will

1102
03:29:42,115 --> 03:29:45,619
Be going on, I’ll be going on

1103
03:29:45,619 --> 03:29:47,921
Some meetings in regards to a.I.

1104
03:29:47,921 --> 03:29:50,657
And how it’s impacting

1105
03:29:50,657 --> 03:29:51,191
Municipalities.

1106
03:29:51,191 --> 03:29:57,430
So looking informed to going to

1107
03:29:57,430 --> 03:29:58,865
That meeting and how that

1108
03:29:58,865 --> 03:30:00,300
Technology works for or against

1109
03:30:00,300 --> 03:30:02,369
Us so that’s our report.

1110
03:30:02,369 --> 03:30:03,637
>> mayor bernal: all right

1111
03:30:03,637 --> 03:30:03,904

Already been announced so I

1116
03:30:09,009 --> 03:30:11,645
Don’t have -- I don’t want to be

1117
03:30:11,645 --> 03:30:12,179
Repetitive.

1118
03:30:12,179 --> 03:30:13,380

Think about this.

1122

While going on our d.c. Trip

1123
03:30:26,393 --> 03:30:29,563
Councilperson garamendi talked

1124
03:30:29,563 --> 03:30:32,499
About your npdes, there might be

1125
03:30:32,499 --> 03:30:34,468
An opportunity to get some

1126
03:30:34,468 --> 03:30:34,901

1127
03:30:34,901 --> 03:30:35,669

Our county and it’s been very

1135
03:30:50,350 --> 03:30:52,018
Beneficial to keeping our river

1136
03:30:52,018 --> 03:30:54,087
Clean and our waterways.

1137
03:30:54,087 --> 03:30:55,856
So it’s impactful years ago and

1138
03:30:55,856 --> 03:30:56,523
Still today.

Things that they have to share.

1153
03:31:35,929 --> 03:31:37,697
And mayor pro tem freitas and I

1154
03:31:37,697 --> 03:31:39,499
Are going to be doing a bunch of

1155
03:31:39,499 --> 03:31:42,335
Interviews for the g pac

1156
03:31:42,335 --> 03:31:44,671
Applicants, that is our general

1157
03:31:44,671 --> 03:31:45,872
Plan advisory committee so we’re

1158
03:31:45,872 --> 03:31:47,841
Going to be doing that over the

1159
03:31:47,841 --> 03:31:49,376
Next week ore so and getting

1160
03:31:49,376 --> 03:31:51,244
Those folks back before the

1161
03:31:51,244 --> 03:31:52,212
Council hopefully to next city

1162
03:31:52,212 --> 03:31:53,747
Council meeting so we can get

1163
03:31:53,747 --> 03:31:56,383
Those meetings started which is

1164
03:31:56,383 --> 03:31:57,918
Very important.

1165
03:31:57,918 --> 03:31:59,553
Regarding my mayor’s comments

1166
03:31:59,553 --> 03:32:01,188
Most of you were not at our

1167
03:32:01,188 --> 03:32:02,389
Study session we had earlier

1168
03:32:02,389 --> 03:32:04,257
About our budget.

1169
03:32:04,257 --> 03:32:07,861
And so it was sobering to hear

1170
03:32:07,861 --> 03:32:10,230
The state of our finances.

1171
03:32:10,230 --> 03:32:15,769
There is a projected $11.3

1172
03:32:15,769 --> 03:32:20,640
Million defendant deficit for t

1173
03:32:20,640 --> 03:32:20,907
Year.

1174
03:32:20,907 --> 03:32:23,210
But when we have a little bit

1175
03:32:23,210 --> 03:32:27,581
Less than 11

1176
03:32:27,581 --> 03:32:29,483
We have many needs in the city

1177
03:32:29,483 --> 03:32:31,251
Of antioch as you know.

1178
03:32:31,251 --> 03:32:33,120
Our limited resources compete

1179
03:32:33,120 --> 03:32:35,522
For all of those.

1180
03:32:35,522 --> 03:32:38,258
This is down from a $27 million

1181
03:32:38,258 --> 03:32:39,726
Deficit last year, so we have

1182
03:32:39,726 --> 03:32:42,863
Made a lot of progress as a

1183
03:32:42,863 --> 03:32:45,365
Council working that down, but

1184
03:32:45,365 --> 03:32:48,568
We have a lot of work to do to

1185
03:32:48,568 --> 03:32:50,537
Keep going.

1186
03:32:50,537 --> 03:32:52,506
We can’t continue business as

1187
03:32:52,506 --> 03:32:52,839
Usual.

1188
03:32:52,839 --> 03:32:55,709
We have to figure out ways to

1189
03:32:55,709 --> 03:32:58,545
Increase revenue and decrease

1190
03:32:58,545 --> 03:33:00,113
Costs accordingly.

1191
03:33:00,113 --> 03:33:03,283
85% of revenue comes from taxes,

1192
03:33:03,283 --> 03:33:07,988
Property taxes, sales taxes,

1193
03:33:07,988 --> 03:33:11,591
Different taxes, so we are

1194
03:33:11,591 --> 03:33:13,360
Heavily tax dependent.

1195
03:33:13,360 --> 03:33:14,694
Economic development is

1196
03:33:14,694 --> 03:33:16,229
Important but a lot of things

1197
03:33:16,229 --> 03:33:18,832
Drive that in the city, public

1198
03:33:18,832 --> 03:33:20,934
Safety being one of the largest

1199
03:33:20,934 --> 03:33:22,702
Things, making sure when people

1200
03:33:22,702 --> 03:33:24,371
Have a business here, they want

1201
03:33:24,371 --> 03:33:27,574
To keep it here, it can grow and

1202
03:33:27,574 --> 03:33:29,376
Attract new businesses to come

1203
03:33:29,376 --> 03:33:31,244
To the city of antioch.

1204
03:33:31,244 --> 03:33:33,013
Staff is working hard on a plan

1205
03:33:33,013 --> 03:33:35,248
As we speak to bring back to the

1206
03:33:35,248 --> 03:33:37,150
City council to talk about

1207
03:33:37,150 --> 03:33:39,152
Economic development.

1208
03:33:39,152 --> 03:33:41,855
That is one of the three

1209
03:33:41,855 --> 03:33:44,057
Priorities we adopted at the

1210
03:33:44,057 --> 03:33:45,459
Last city council meeting,

1211
03:33:45,459 --> 03:33:47,994
Economic development, driven by

1212
03:33:47,994 --> 03:33:51,231
Code enforcement.

1213
03:33:51,231 --> 03:33:52,999
Before the meeting tonight, the

1214
03:33:52,999 --> 03:33:54,534
Code enforcement department

1215
03:33:54,534 --> 03:33:55,902
Talked about what they were

1216
03:33:55,902 --> 03:33:59,039
Doing to keep the city moving

1217
03:33:59,039 --> 03:34:02,342
Forward as far as blighted

1218
03:34:02,342 --> 03:34:11,518
Property, graffiti.

1219
03:34:11,518 --> 03:34:14,254
We have a plan to work on the

1220
03:34:14,254 --> 03:34:16,223
Updated ordinance, looking at

1221
03:34:16,223 --> 03:34:18,425
Ways to hold people

1222
03:34:18,425 --> 03:34:19,292
Accountable.

1223
03:34:19,292 --> 03:34:20,827
That’s very important, I’m sure

1224
03:34:20,827 --> 03:34:22,896
To all of you like it is to city

1225
03:34:22,896 --> 03:34:23,930
Council.

1226
03:34:23,930 --> 03:34:25,532
Another area priority for the

1227
03:34:25,532 --> 03:34:27,067
City council in the upcoming

1228
03:34:27,067 --> 03:34:28,802
Budget and year is having a

1229
03:34:28,802 --> 03:34:31,004
Fully staffed police department,

1230
03:34:31,004 --> 03:34:33,406
Complying with the doj,

1231
03:34:33,406 --> 03:34:35,675
Substations was another as was

1232
03:34:35,675 --> 03:34:38,545
Mentioned a grand opening of the

1233
03:34:38,545 --> 03:34:45,552
Substation in sick in in

1234
03:34:45,552 --> 03:34:47,387
Sycamore square tomorrow at 5:30

1235
03:34:47,387 --> 03:34:49,055
If you can make it.

1236
03:34:49,055 --> 03:34:50,590
will be big for the

1237
03:34:50,590 --> 03:34:51,291
Neighborhood.

1238
03:34:51,291 --> 03:34:53,393
Youth is a huge priority for the

1239
03:34:53,393 --> 03:34:54,194
City council.

1240
03:34:54,194 --> 03:34:56,496
Youth in every way.

1241
03:34:56,496 --> 03:34:58,031
Finally, homelessness, making

1242
03:34:58,031 --> 03:35:00,000
Sure that we are addressing

1243
03:35:00,000 --> 03:35:00,867
That.

1244
03:35:00,867 --> 03:35:03,470
Were going to work on a two year

1245
03:35:03,470 --> 03:35:05,338
Plan, figure out what to do with

1246
03:35:05,338 --> 03:35:07,407
The delta fair property.

1247
03:35:07,407 --> 03:35:09,409
We have a lot of things we are

1248
03:35:09,409 --> 03:35:10,277
Working on again.

1249
03:35:10,277 --> 03:35:12,679
The bottom line is that we need

1250
03:35:12,679 --> 03:35:13,780
Public engagement working

1251
03:35:13,780 --> 03:35:15,549
Through the budget over the next

1252
03:35:15,549 --> 03:35:16,616
Couple of months.

1253
03:35:16,616 --> 03:35:18,718
It’s a tough discussion.

1254
03:35:18,718 --> 03:35:20,153
Tough decisions are need to be

1255
03:35:20,153 --> 03:35:20,720
Made.

1256
03:35:20,720 --> 03:35:22,556
We need to do them in the best

1257
03:35:22,556 --> 03:35:24,224
Interest of the antioch

1258
03:35:24,224 --> 03:35:24,891
Community.

1259
03:35:24,891 --> 03:35:27,928
We need to hear your voices and

1260
03:35:27,928 --> 03:35:29,796
Hope you will all stay engaged

1261
03:35:29,796 --> 03:35:30,897
In that.

1262
03:35:30,897 --> 03:35:32,966
concludes my comments.

1263
03:35:32,966 --> 03:35:35,802
Our presentation today is the

1264
03:35:35,802 --> 03:35:38,538
Next item number four is the

1265
03:35:38,538 --> 03:35:41,174
District plan east bay park

1266
03:35:41,174 --> 03:35:42,442
District.

1267
03:35:42,442 --> 03:35:46,746
Our director collin is here.

1268
03:35:46,746 --> 03:35:48,048
Director will talk about the

1269
03:35:48,048 --> 03:35:48,482
Plan.

1270
03:35:48,482 --> 03:35:51,251
I think we have a powerpoint.

1271
03:35:51,251 --> 03:35:52,986
We’ll grill him with questions

1272
03:35:52,986 --> 03:35:54,721
About all we want to know about

1273
03:35:54,721 --> 03:35:55,422
The park district.

1274
03:35:55,422 --> 03:35:57,023
>> certainly, mayor.

1275
03:35:57,023 --> 03:35:58,391
I was told there is a problem

1276
03:35:58,391 --> 03:35:59,659
With the powerpoint.

1277
03:35:59,659 --> 03:36:00,527
We got it?

1278
03:36:00,527 --> 03:36:02,062
All right.

1279
03:36:02,062 --> 03:36:05,465
I was prepared to work without

1280
03:36:05,465 --> 03:36:07,334
It.

1281
03:36:07,334 --> 03:36:09,970
Thank you, mayor,

1282
03:36:09,970 --> 03:36:11,271
Councilmembers, city manager and

1283
03:36:11,271 --> 03:36:11,838
Public.

1284
03:36:11,838 --> 03:36:14,774
My name is collin coffee.

1285
03:36:14,774 --> 03:36:17,310
I represent ward 7 on the board

1286
03:36:17,310 --> 03:36:20,380
Of directors east bay park

1287
03:36:20,380 --> 03:36:21,515
District.

1288
03:36:21,515 --> 03:36:22,983
Ward 7 is the northern

1289
03:36:22,983 --> 03:36:25,619
Waterfront of contra costa

1290
03:36:25,619 --> 03:36:30,056
County and east county into our

1291
03:36:30,056 --> 03:36:30,757
Delta community.

1292
03:36:30,757 --> 03:36:34,461
I think you all are aware that

1293
03:36:34,461 --> 03:36:37,864
This incredibly expansive and

1294
03:36:37,864 --> 03:36:40,167
Wonderful park -- regional park

1295
03:36:40,167 --> 03:36:41,768
And trail system we have in the

1296
03:36:41,768 --> 03:36:45,238
East bay is a result of our

1297
03:36:45,238 --> 03:36:48,141
Founders deciding 90 years ago

1298
03:36:48,141 --> 03:36:51,578
That these two counties, alameda

1299
03:36:51,578 --> 03:36:53,880
And contra costa county,

1300
03:36:53,880 --> 03:36:55,115
Wouldn’t rely on park

1301
03:36:55,115 --> 03:36:56,149
Departments.

1302
03:36:56,149 --> 03:36:57,717
Instead, they created what has

1303
03:36:57,717 --> 03:36:59,586
Turned out to be the largest

1304
03:36:59,586 --> 03:37:01,988
Local government in the country

1305
03:37:01,988 --> 03:37:03,757
Devoted to regional parks and

1306
03:37:03,757 --> 03:37:05,025
Trails.

1307
03:37:05,025 --> 03:37:07,594
The east bay regional park

1308
03:37:07,594 --> 03:37:07,928
District.

1309
03:37:07,928 --> 03:37:10,230
We have an independent budget

1310
03:37:10,230 --> 03:37:12,666
Because we have our own property

1311
03:37:12,666 --> 03:37:14,935
Taxes and are not dependent on

1312
03:37:14,935 --> 03:37:17,270
Counties or states or other

1313
03:37:17,270 --> 03:37:19,773
Government entity, and we have

1314
03:37:19,773 --> 03:37:29,182
Our own elected board.

1315
03:37:29,182 --> 03:37:30,817
There we are.

1316
03:37:30,817 --> 03:37:33,253
So, you know, we have arrived at

1317
03:37:33,253 --> 03:37:36,056
A point where our annual expense

1318
03:37:36,056 --> 03:37:40,994
Budget is around 3 370

1319
03:37:40,994 --> 03:37:42,329
$370 million, we have a thousand

1320
03:37:42,329 --> 03:37:45,732
Employees, a fully staffed 70

1321
03:37:45,732 --> 03:37:47,734
Sworn officer police department,

1322
03:37:47,734 --> 03:37:50,270
Firedfire department and two

1323
03:37:50,270 --> 03:37:51,538
Helicopters.

1324
03:37:51,538 --> 03:37:57,944
It’s a remarkable accomplishment

1325
03:37:57,944 --> 03:38:00,647
To have this incredible park

1326
03:38:00,647 --> 03:38:00,881
System.

1327
03:38:00,881 --> 03:38:03,683
The task I have is to describe

1328
03:38:03,683 --> 03:38:06,419
For you the master plan process

1329
03:38:06,419 --> 03:38:08,822
That we are currently engaged

1330
03:38:08,822 --> 03:38:09,890
In.

1331
03:38:09,890 --> 03:38:12,993
It is informed largely by a

1332
03:38:12,993 --> 03:38:15,095
Mission that involves recreation

1333
03:38:15,095 --> 03:38:17,931
And conservation of land and

1334
03:38:17,931 --> 03:38:21,635
Access for people, climate

1335
03:38:21,635 --> 03:38:22,969
Resiliency and wildfire

1336
03:38:22,969 --> 03:38:24,404
Protection these days.

1337
03:38:24,404 --> 03:38:26,606
The district plan that we are

1338
03:38:26,606 --> 03:38:28,375
Preparing will guide the future

1339
03:38:28,375 --> 03:38:31,144
Of the east bay parks and

1340
03:38:31,144 --> 03:38:33,213
Address changing conditions

1341
03:38:33,213 --> 03:38:35,849
Including climate, the economy,

1342
03:38:35,849 --> 03:38:38,084
Demographics and park usage.

1343
03:38:38,084 --> 03:38:41,221
Among our desired outcomes for

1344
03:38:41,221 --> 03:38:44,357
This plan will be to inform us

1345
03:38:44,357 --> 03:38:46,326
By the diverse communities that

1346
03:38:46,326 --> 03:38:50,230
Use our parks, benefit from or

1347
03:38:50,230 --> 03:38:52,132
Seek greater access to park

1348
03:38:52,132 --> 03:38:55,869
District resources and move

1349
03:38:55,869 --> 03:38:58,338
Accordingly.

1350
03:38:58,338 --> 03:39:01,908
Themes are equity resilient,

1351
03:39:01,908 --> 03:39:04,010
Fiscal sustainability and

1352
03:39:04,010 --> 03:39:06,746
Collaboration, these are the

1353
03:39:06,746 --> 03:39:10,117
Topics for our goals including

1354
03:39:10,117 --> 03:39:12,519
Access, experience, resource

1355
03:39:12,519 --> 03:39:15,989
Protection and public land

1356
03:39:15,989 --> 03:39:16,289
Management.

1357
03:39:16,289 --> 03:39:18,291
Our timeline for this master

1358
03:39:18,291 --> 03:39:21,761
Planning process is accordingly

1359
03:39:21,761 --> 03:39:24,865
Here presented.

1360
03:39:24,865 --> 03:39:27,801
Round one was visioning and

1361
03:39:27,801 --> 03:39:30,537
Largely based on feedback from a

1362
03:39:30,537 --> 03:39:32,906
Community survey that resulted

1363
03:39:32,906 --> 03:39:34,708
In 6,000 people responding to

1364
03:39:34,708 --> 03:39:36,243
What they wanted to see for the

1365
03:39:36,243 --> 03:39:38,211
Future of the east bay park

1366
03:39:38,211 --> 03:39:38,512
System.

1367
03:39:38,512 --> 03:39:40,714
We are currently engaged in

1368
03:39:40,714 --> 03:39:43,984
Round two, focused on the master

1369
03:39:43,984 --> 03:39:46,419
Plans, goals, actions and

1370
03:39:46,419 --> 03:39:47,187
Priorities.

1371
03:39:47,187 --> 03:39:50,457
We are largely doing this, I

1372
03:39:50,457 --> 03:39:58,231
Think -- oops.

1373
03:39:58,231 --> 03:40:00,100
-- by reaching out to

1374
03:40:00,100 --> 03:40:03,170
\hoops -- by reaching out to

1375
03:40:00,100 --> 03:40:03,170
Community groups and the general

1376
03:40:03,170 --> 03:40:04,471
Public as well as important

1377
03:40:04,471 --> 03:40:06,106
Partners like the city of

1378
03:40:06,106 --> 03:40:06,673
Antioch.

1379
03:40:06,673 --> 03:40:09,075
So far what we have been hearing

1380
03:40:09,075 --> 03:40:12,012
Is park users are most

1381
03:40:12,012 --> 03:40:13,880
Interested in investing in

1382
03:40:13,880 --> 03:40:16,082
Existing parklands, providing

1383
03:40:16,082 --> 03:40:18,819
Access to newly acquired

1384
03:40:18,819 --> 03:40:21,087
Parklands and balancing resource

1385
03:40:21,087 --> 03:40:27,360
Conservation and public access.

1386
03:40:27,360 --> 03:40:29,896
Round two, as I mentioned,

1387
03:40:29,896 --> 03:40:31,965
Emerging partners reaching out

1388
03:40:31,965 --> 03:40:33,600
To established partners,

1389
03:40:33,600 --> 03:40:35,669
Institutional partners, tribes,

1390
03:40:35,669 --> 03:40:39,639
Park visitors and our own

1391
03:40:39,639 --> 03:40:40,574
Staff.

1392
03:40:40,574 --> 03:40:43,543
Currently we are engaged in

1393
03:40:43,543 --> 03:40:45,112
Aggressive outreach and

1394
03:40:45,112 --> 03:40:45,545
Awareness.

1395
03:40:45,545 --> 03:40:48,281
We have consultants working with

1396
03:40:48,281 --> 03:40:49,483
Various community groups

1397
03:40:49,483 --> 03:40:53,420
Including out here in east

1398
03:40:53,420 --> 03:40:54,187
Contra costa.

1399
03:40:54,187 --> 03:40:57,491
We hope by next winter to have a

1400
03:40:57,491 --> 03:40:59,559
Draft district plan for all to

1401
03:40:59,559 --> 03:41:01,862
Review and have further input.

1402
03:41:01,862 --> 03:41:04,898
It will then conclude as our

1403
03:41:04,898 --> 03:41:07,968
Strategic road map with key

1404
03:41:07,968 --> 03:41:10,637
Priorities with input, existing

1405
03:41:10,637 --> 03:41:12,906
Conditions and future trends.

1406
03:41:12,906 --> 03:41:16,176
All are invited to go to eb

1407
03:41:16,176 --> 03:41:16,810
Parks.org.

1408
03:41:16,810 --> 03:41:18,278
There is a banner there,

1409
03:41:18,278 --> 03:41:19,045
District plan.

1410
03:41:19,045 --> 03:41:20,781
It has all of the background

1411
03:41:20,781 --> 03:41:21,414
Information.

1412
03:41:21,414 --> 03:41:23,750
A lot of demographic information

1413
03:41:23,750 --> 03:41:26,386
That’s fascinating to review.

1414
03:41:26,386 --> 03:41:30,190
We can go city by city and

1415
03:41:30,190 --> 03:41:32,793
Determine whether people who

1416
03:41:32,793 --> 03:41:34,561
Reside in whatever city use our

1417
03:41:34,561 --> 03:41:36,229
Parks very much and how they use

1418
03:41:36,229 --> 03:41:38,398
Our parks, how they get to our

1419
03:41:38,398 --> 03:41:38,965
Parks.

1420
03:41:38,965 --> 03:41:41,034
It’s fascinating stuff.

1421
03:41:41,034 --> 03:41:44,304
You would be pleased to know

1422
03:41:44,304 --> 03:41:46,006
Antioch residents use our

1423
03:41:46,006 --> 03:41:46,206
Parks.

1424
03:41:46,206 --> 03:41:48,341
They are active park users in

1425
03:41:48,341 --> 03:41:51,878
This area.

1426
03:41:51,878 --> 03:41:53,413
Then, thank you.

1427
03:41:53,413 --> 03:41:55,715
What I want to do now is talk

1428
03:41:55,715 --> 03:41:56,950
About a separate planning

1429
03:41:56,950 --> 03:41:59,119
Process that we engaged in.

1430
03:41:59,119 --> 03:42:03,690
That’s on the contra loma

1431
03:42:03,690 --> 03:42:04,958
Lagoon.

1432
03:42:04,958 --> 03:42:07,661
History, long story short, we

1433
03:42:07,661 --> 03:42:09,196
Started repairing problems with

1434
03:42:09,196 --> 03:42:11,364
The lagoon, and it turned into

1435
03:42:11,364 --> 03:42:15,769
One of those -- you know, this

1436
03:42:15,769 --> 03:42:18,305
Old house kind of story?

1437
03:42:18,305 --> 03:42:21,608
You start tearing into it and

1438
03:42:21,608 --> 03:42:23,577
Find things wrong more serious

1439
03:42:23,577 --> 03:42:24,444
Than you thought.

1440
03:42:24,444 --> 03:42:27,080
You get to the point you are

1441
03:42:27,080 --> 03:42:28,181
Practically rebuilding the

1442
03:42:28,181 --> 03:42:28,849
Home?

1443
03:42:28,849 --> 03:42:30,150
That’s what happened here.

1444
03:42:30,150 --> 03:42:32,352
It got to the point where staff

1445
03:42:32,352 --> 03:42:35,956
And our consultants determined

1446
03:42:35,956 --> 03:42:38,125
That we can’t repair that

1447
03:42:38,125 --> 03:42:41,761
Lagoon, so we closed it, and as

1448
03:42:41,761 --> 03:42:48,068
Of last year, mid 2025, we had

1449
03:42:48,068 --> 03:42:50,570
Come up with plan a and b to

1450
03:42:50,570 --> 03:42:54,641
Replace it with a new loo

1451
03:42:54,641 --> 03:43:01,314
Lagoon, pricing between 10 and

1452
03:43:01,314 --> 03:43:01,615
$15 million.

1453
03:43:01,615 --> 03:43:02,783
Interesting process to go

1454
03:43:02,783 --> 03:43:04,985
Through to determine what should

1455
03:43:04,985 --> 03:43:08,255
Replace the old lagoon and what

1456
03:43:08,255 --> 03:43:10,223
Kind of facility it would

1457
03:43:10,223 --> 03:43:10,557
Become.

1458
03:43:10,557 --> 03:43:13,860
They are currently working on a

1459
03:43:13,860 --> 03:43:14,227
Plan c.

1460
03:43:14,227 --> 03:43:16,263
I have not seen that yet.

1461
03:43:16,263 --> 03:43:20,200
It might be, for instance, a

1462
03:43:20,200 --> 03:43:27,007
Regular pool rather than allah a

1463
03:43:27,007 --> 03:43:29,209
Lagoon allowing us to do more

1464
03:43:29,209 --> 03:43:30,043
Programming out there.

1465
03:43:30,043 --> 03:43:33,013
We hired last much a community

1466
03:43:33,013 --> 03:43:36,082
Outreach consulting firm that

1467
03:43:36,082 --> 03:43:39,986
Will commence this summer with

1468
03:43:39,986 --> 03:43:41,588
Community forums in antioch to

1469
03:43:41,588 --> 03:43:43,857
Go over these plans for a

1470
03:43:43,857 --> 03:43:45,492
Possible replacement of the

1471
03:43:45,492 --> 03:43:47,494
Lagoon and get community

1472
03:43:47,494 --> 03:43:49,362
Feedback so we can be informed.

1473
03:43:49,362 --> 03:43:51,331
We are going to spend a lot of

1474
03:43:51,331 --> 03:43:54,234
Money on this at some point, by

1475
03:43:54,234 --> 03:44:00,407
Thebuy the community what

1476
03:44:00,407 --> 03:44:02,375
Programming they want at that

1477
03:44:02,375 --> 03:44:03,210
Facility.

1478
03:44:03,210 --> 03:44:08,782
I want to introduce pete da

1479
03:44:08,782 --> 03:44:10,417
Quincy, manager of life guard

1480
03:44:10,417 --> 03:44:11,251
Services.

1481
03:44:11,251 --> 03:44:13,553
I’m proud of what pete has been

1482
03:44:13,553 --> 03:44:16,323
Doing in the community and

1483
03:44:16,323 --> 03:44:17,090
Surrounding communities in lieu

1484
03:44:17,090 --> 03:44:19,826
Of having the lagoon facility

1485
03:44:19,826 --> 03:44:20,794
Available.

1486
03:44:20,794 --> 03:44:22,896
If pete could come up to talk to

1487
03:44:22,896 --> 03:44:23,497
That?

1488
03:44:23,497 --> 03:44:27,167
>> thank you, director coffee.

1489
03:44:27,167 --> 03:44:30,971
City council, mr. Mayor, mayor

1490
03:44:30,971 --> 03:44:32,305

03:44:32,305 --> 03:44:35,575
Staff and public, my name is

1492
03:44:35,575 --> 03:44:39,613
Pete da quincy, service manager

1493
03:44:39,613 --> 03:44:43,049
For east bay national park.

1494
03:44:43,049 --> 03:44:46,319
Co tra loma is one that I

1495
03:44:46,319 --> 03:44:48,622
Oversaw.

1496
03:44:48,622 --> 03:44:49,923
The immediate place we reached

1497
03:44:49,923 --> 03:44:53,093
Out to was antioch unified

1498
03:44:53,093 --> 03:44:54,194
School district because they

1499
03:44:54,194 --> 03:44:56,730
Have two pools available being

1500
03:44:56,730 --> 03:44:59,800
Under utilized deer valley and

1501
03:44:59,800 --> 03:45:00,967
Antioch high.

1502
03:45:00,967 --> 03:45:02,402
We then proceeded to work with

1503
03:45:02,402 --> 03:45:05,438
Them in regards to what could we

1504
03:45:05,438 --> 03:45:06,807
Provide to the community

1505
03:45:06,807 --> 03:45:07,407
Members?

1506
03:45:07,407 --> 03:45:12,345
We started to work on developing

1507
03:45:12,345 --> 03:45:13,780
Programming for the summer for

1508
03:45:13,780 --> 03:45:16,716
The sites and swim lessons for

1509
03:45:16,716 --> 03:45:17,951
The students.

1510
03:45:17,951 --> 03:45:19,786
We found a high percentage of

1511
03:45:19,786 --> 03:45:21,922
The student body that did not or

1512
03:45:21,922 --> 03:45:23,723
Was not or didn’t have the

1513
03:45:23,723 --> 03:45:24,724
Ability to swim.

1514
03:45:24,724 --> 03:45:27,160
We wanted them to learn.

1515
03:45:27,160 --> 03:45:29,362
We continued to do that.

1516
03:45:29,362 --> 03:45:31,531
We continue to do it all the way

1517
03:45:31,531 --> 03:45:32,833
To the present.

1518
03:45:32,833 --> 03:45:36,670
For the starting year of 2024,

1519
03:45:36,670 --> 03:45:38,638
We trained roughly in

1520
03:45:38,638 --> 03:45:40,373
Partnership over a thousand kids

1521
03:45:40,373 --> 03:45:43,143
How to swim at the school

1522
03:45:43,143 --> 03:45:44,744
District.

1523
03:45:44,744 --> 03:45:47,481
Historically, we were only at a

1524
03:45:47,481 --> 03:45:49,749
Threshold we could get to was

1525
03:45:49,749 --> 03:45:52,219
500 at contra loma.

1526
03:45:52,219 --> 03:45:54,287
Getting to a thousand working

1527
03:45:54,287 --> 03:45:56,590
With the school districts was

1528
03:45:56,590 --> 03:45:57,324
Phenomenal.

1529
03:45:57,324 --> 03:46:00,694
The last year of 2025, we did

1530
03:46:00,694 --> 03:46:01,628
3,000 students.

1531
03:46:01,628 --> 03:46:03,597
Some of the other things we have

1532
03:46:03,597 --> 03:46:05,765
Done in addition to that, which

1533
03:46:05,765 --> 03:46:07,734
Really came from the drivers of

1534
03:46:07,734 --> 03:46:09,402
The community and the students

1535
03:46:09,402 --> 03:46:16,510
Is, we received a call, because

1536
03:46:16,510 --> 03:46:18,044
Dozer libby doesn’t have a pool

1537
03:46:18,044 --> 03:46:19,980
And they wanted to do

1538
03:46:19,980 --> 03:46:20,914
Something.

1539
03:46:20,914 --> 03:46:22,849
When I met with them they were

1540
03:46:22,849 --> 03:46:24,785
Saying, basically, we would like

1541
03:46:24,785 --> 03:46:27,220
To have east bay regional parks

1542
03:46:27,220 --> 03:46:29,956
Come out to teach cpr to the

1543
03:46:29,956 --> 03:46:30,590
Students.

1544
03:46:30,590 --> 03:46:33,026
I said no, we would not do

1545
03:46:33,026 --> 03:46:33,226
That.

1546
03:46:33,226 --> 03:46:35,529
What we would do instead was

1547
03:46:35,529 --> 03:46:37,898
Train the students to be the

1548
03:46:37,898 --> 03:46:38,198
Instructors.

1549
03:46:38,198 --> 03:46:40,667
They would then -- we would

1550
03:46:40,667 --> 03:46:42,636
Provide them the equipment, find

1551
03:46:42,636 --> 03:46:44,704
Them the means to cover

1552
03:46:44,704 --> 03:46:45,906
Certifications and allow the

1553
03:46:45,906 --> 03:46:48,542
Students to teach each other,

1554
03:46:48,542 --> 03:46:50,277
Peers and students.

1555
03:46:50,277 --> 03:46:52,045
Within the first year they

1556
03:46:52,045 --> 03:46:54,548
Trained over 500 students.

1557
03:46:54,548 --> 03:46:59,252
This last year they did a

1558
03:46:59,252 --> 03:47:01,855
Phenomenal job, and it extended

1559
03:47:01,855 --> 03:47:04,324
Beyond dozer libby and has moved

1560
03:47:04,324 --> 03:47:06,493
To antioch high.

1561
03:47:06,493 --> 03:47:08,261
It’s also gone into the middle

1562
03:47:08,261 --> 03:47:10,797
Schools where the eighth

1563
03:47:10,797 --> 03:47:13,967
Graders, principal bower at the

1564
03:47:13,967 --> 03:47:16,336
Time at the middle school, pete,

1565
03:47:16,336 --> 03:47:17,904
We would like to see something

1566
03:47:17,904 --> 03:47:19,973
The eighth graders can do.

1567
03:47:19,973 --> 03:47:21,174
Can you make it happen?

1568
03:47:21,174 --> 03:47:24,010
I don’t know what we can do for

1569
03:47:24,010 --> 03:47:25,779
Young eighth graders.

1570
03:47:25,779 --> 03:47:28,381
I reached out to national red

1571
03:47:28,381 --> 03:47:32,652
Cross and wavered us to allow

1572
03:47:32,652 --> 03:47:35,255
Eighth graders to be instructors

1573
03:47:35,255 --> 03:47:36,823
In cpr.

1574
03:47:36,823 --> 03:47:39,659
They certified six and seventh

1575
03:47:39,659 --> 03:47:41,828
Graders and we extended the

1576
03:47:41,828 --> 03:47:43,697
Program to park middle school,

1577
03:47:43,697 --> 03:47:48,401
Orchard park, dallas ranch.

1578
03:47:48,401 --> 03:47:51,238
For 2024-25, the last year they

1579
03:47:51,238 --> 03:47:54,207
Certified a little under 1400

1580
03:47:54,207 --> 03:47:56,276
Kids, the high schools, the

1581
03:47:56,276 --> 03:47:58,145
Middle schools, this year at

1582
03:47:58,145 --> 03:48:02,716
This point, even before we are,

1583
03:48:02,716 --> 03:48:04,251
They are at 1700.

1584
03:48:04,251 --> 03:48:06,019
It’s the students driving the

1585
03:48:06,019 --> 03:48:06,453
Work.

1586
03:48:06,453 --> 03:48:09,322
I provide the equipment and

1587
03:48:09,322 --> 03:48:11,291
Cover certifications through the

1588
03:48:11,291 --> 03:48:14,261
Grant but the students drive the

1589
03:48:14,261 --> 03:48:17,097
Program and it’s engaging them

1590
03:48:17,097 --> 03:48:19,099
Within the community, serving

1591
03:48:19,099 --> 03:48:22,669
Their peers, the community,

1592
03:48:22,669 --> 03:48:25,105
Leadership development, making

1593
03:48:25,105 --> 03:48:26,506
Adult decisions about how to

1594
03:48:26,506 --> 03:48:27,274
Give back.

1595
03:48:27,274 --> 03:48:29,609
Next week, I shouldn’t say next

1596
03:48:29,609 --> 03:48:30,343
Week.

1597
03:48:30,343 --> 03:48:33,113
Friday they’ll be at dallas

1598
03:48:33,113 --> 03:48:34,214
Ranch serving there.

1599
03:48:34,214 --> 03:48:38,518
Two weeks from now, we’ll a

1600
03:48:38,518 --> 03:48:40,821
Pilot of an idea walking from

1601
03:48:40,821 --> 03:48:45,192
Park to sutter elementary to

1602
03:48:45,192 --> 03:48:46,293
Provide information to the

1603
03:48:46,293 --> 03:48:47,828
Fourth and fifth graders.

1604
03:48:47,828 --> 03:48:50,564
What they are doing hasn’t been

1605
03:48:50,564 --> 03:48:52,199
Done anywhere in the country.

1606
03:48:52,199 --> 03:48:53,934
It’s a big deal.

1607
03:48:53,934 --> 03:48:56,136
I can’t thank enough for the

1608
03:48:56,136 --> 03:48:57,771
Community members, students

1609
03:48:57,771 --> 03:48:59,339
Themselves, and the schools

1610
03:48:59,339 --> 03:49:01,374
Allowing us to do this.

1611
03:49:01,374 --> 03:49:06,513
Again, I know no dozer libby is

1612
03:49:06,513 --> 03:49:09,149
Reaching out, extending the

1613
03:49:09,149 --> 03:49:11,351
Service beyond antioch to

1614
03:49:11,351 --> 03:49:13,320
Oakley, to brentwood, to the

1615
03:49:13,320 --> 03:49:14,588
Students there.

1616
03:49:14,588 --> 03:49:15,388
Again, we’ll continue to do

1617
03:49:15,388 --> 03:49:17,023
That.

1618
03:49:17,023 --> 03:49:19,426
I know as we continue to move

1619
03:49:19,426 --> 03:49:20,927
Forward, we’ll expand the

1620
03:49:20,927 --> 03:49:22,696
Program for swimming and for

1621
03:49:22,696 --> 03:49:26,366
First aid cpr, the kids are

1622
03:49:26,366 --> 03:49:31,404
Teaching epipens, asthma

1623
03:49:31,404 --> 03:49:35,242
Inhaler, nay naloxone.

1624
03:49:35,242 --> 03:49:37,077
They are in talks with the city

1625
03:49:37,077 --> 03:49:39,813
As to what we can do to support

1626
03:49:39,813 --> 03:49:41,782
The waterpark in regards to

1627
03:49:41,782 --> 03:49:43,450
Training and development and so

1628
03:49:43,450 --> 03:49:44,851
Forth.

1629
03:49:44,851 --> 03:49:47,053
Is there any questions you might

1630
03:49:47,053 --> 03:49:49,156
Have at this time that I could

1631
03:49:49,156 --> 03:49:49,389
Answer?

1632
03:49:49,389 --> 03:49:51,324
>> mayor ron bernal: before we

1633
03:49:51,324 --> 03:49:54,027
Ask questions, if there is

1634
03:49:54,027 --> 03:49:55,495
Public comment on this, I would

1635
03:49:55,495 --> 03:49:57,364
Like to take that first and then

1636
03:49:57,364 --> 03:49:58,698
We can ask questions.

1637
03:49:58,698 --> 03:50:03,370
>> clerk: we have one public

1638
03:50:03,370 --> 03:50:10,076
Comment.

1639
03:50:10,076 --> 03:50:11,578
>> thank you for the

1640
03:50:11,578 --> 03:50:12,045
Presentation.

1641
03:50:12,045 --> 03:50:15,749
I wanted to say that I noticed

1642
03:50:15,749 --> 03:50:20,454
One thing that’s different from

1643
03:50:20,454 --> 03:50:23,089
Alameda county to this county.

1644
03:50:23,089 --> 03:50:25,592
Alameda county hoffa silties you

1645
03:50:25,592 --> 03:50:29,529
Can rent and use in their public

1646
03:50:29,529 --> 03:50:30,230
Parks.

1647
03:50:30,230 --> 03:50:32,632
You can have weddings.

1648
03:50:32,632 --> 03:50:37,637
You can have anniversary, all

1649
03:50:37,637 --> 03:50:39,272
Kinnes of things.

1650
03:50:39,272 --> 03:50:41,041
I have not seen that in contra

1651
03:50:41,041 --> 03:50:41,374
Costa county.

1652
03:50:41,374 --> 03:50:43,810
I have not seen places you can

1653
03:50:43,810 --> 03:50:45,979
Rent to do that type of thing,

1654
03:50:45,979 --> 03:50:47,180
Have weddings.

1655
03:50:47,180 --> 03:50:49,049
That generates a lot of things.

1656
03:50:49,049 --> 03:50:51,918
I gave my youngest daughter a

1657
03:50:51,918 --> 03:50:53,520
Baby shower and another one

1658
03:50:53,520 --> 03:50:54,754
Something else there.

1659
03:50:54,754 --> 03:50:58,158
I wonder why that hasn’t been

1660
03:50:58,158 --> 03:50:59,659
Implemented here and as a means

1661
03:50:59,659 --> 03:51:03,597
Of making -- generating more

1662
03:51:03,597 --> 03:51:05,765
Revenue?

1663
03:51:05,765 --> 03:51:11,605
>> 40 years ago, I was married

1664
03:51:11,605 --> 03:51:13,473
In contra costa county in tilten

1665
03:51:13,473 --> 03:51:17,177
Park at a park district facility

1666
03:51:17,177 --> 03:51:20,046
Known as the brazil room.

1667
03:51:20,046 --> 03:51:22,549
We share 40th anniversaries,

1668
03:51:22,549 --> 03:51:24,184
Don’t we, mayor?

1669
03:51:24,184 --> 03:51:26,253
We do do that.

1670
03:51:26,253 --> 03:51:28,555
We have various facilities

1671
03:51:28,555 --> 03:51:30,323
Around the two counties that

1672
03:51:30,323 --> 03:51:32,993
People can rent.

1673
03:51:32,993 --> 03:51:38,932
People get married at briyonnes

1674
03:51:38,932 --> 03:51:41,134
Park, there is an area to pay a

1675
03:51:41,134 --> 03:51:45,639
Fee and hold a wedding there.

1676
03:51:45,639 --> 03:51:50,444
Kenkennedy grove can be rented.

1677
03:51:50,444 --> 03:51:52,212
Yeah.

1678
03:51:52,212 --> 03:51:54,381
Black diamond, no.

1679
03:51:54,381 --> 03:51:57,784
But we are working on it at

1680
03:51:57,784 --> 03:51:59,319
Black diamond.

1681
03:51:59,319 --> 03:52:01,922
The visitor center in the

1682
03:52:01,922 --> 03:52:04,558
Mountain that is being

1683
03:52:04,558 --> 03:52:06,326
Reinforced so that we can have

1684
03:52:06,326 --> 03:52:08,628
Groups in there again so you can

1685
03:52:08,628 --> 03:52:11,798
Have a neat wedding or some

1686
03:52:11,798 --> 03:52:13,533
Other event basically in a cave

1687
03:52:13,533 --> 03:52:16,703
In the mountain.

1688
03:52:16,703 --> 03:52:18,438
We used to do that kind of

1689
03:52:18,438 --> 03:52:18,805
Thing.

1690
03:52:18,805 --> 03:52:21,074
>> what about potentially the

1691
03:52:21,074 --> 03:52:23,477
Development that you guys are

1692
03:52:23,477 --> 03:52:25,045
Doing at roddy rarnlg?

>>ranch?

1694
03:52:27,247 --> 03:52:30,584
>> roddy ranch is largely a

1695
03:52:30,584 --> 03:52:32,152
Habitat preserve.

1696
03:52:32,152 --> 03:52:34,888
We’ll provide trails, but we are

1697
03:52:34,888 --> 03:52:36,756
Prohibited from building things

1698
03:52:36,756 --> 03:52:38,391
There because of the habitat

1699
03:52:38,391 --> 03:52:38,725
Issues.

1700
03:52:38,725 --> 03:52:40,560
I wanted to say one more thing.

1701
03:52:40,560 --> 03:52:42,996
The added value for what pete

1702
03:52:42,996 --> 03:52:44,531
Has been doing is keeping a

1703
03:52:44,531 --> 03:52:48,235
Bunch of life guards employed.

1704
03:52:48,235 --> 03:52:50,003
I really appreciate that part of

1705
03:52:50,003 --> 03:52:50,770
It.

1706
03:52:50,770 --> 03:52:53,707
His programs are literally

1707
03:52:53,707 --> 03:52:55,909
Training future life guards that

1708
03:52:55,909 --> 03:52:56,676
We’ll have.

1709
03:52:56,676 --> 03:52:58,945
There is a lot of strategic

1710
03:52:58,945 --> 03:53:00,881
Value in this for the practice

1711
03:53:00,881 --> 03:53:02,716
As well.

1712
03:53:02,716 --> 03:53:05,085
>> mayor ron bernal: awesome.

1713
03:53:05,085 --> 03:53:06,520
Any other public comment?

1714
03:53:06,520 --> 03:53:11,224
>> clerk: no further public

1715
03:53:11,224 --> 03:53:13,527
Comment.

1716
03:53:13,527 --> 03:53:15,428
Sorry.

1717
03:53:15,428 --> 03:53:17,464
>> can I come forward to be on

1718
03:53:17,464 --> 03:53:18,899
The record?

1719
03:53:18,899 --> 03:53:23,236
>> clerk: please, come

1720
03:53:23,236 --> 03:53:24,337
Forward.

1721
03:53:24,337 --> 03:53:26,740
>> thank you, mayor, city

1722
03:53:26,740 --> 03:53:28,608
Council members.

1723
03:53:28,608 --> 03:53:32,312
I was curious if park and rec

1724
03:53:32,312 --> 03:53:36,049
For antioch has an adaptive and

1725
03:53:36,049 --> 03:53:39,219
Inclusive resource program for

1726
03:53:39,219 --> 03:53:40,887
Disabled individuals to have

1727
03:53:40,887 --> 03:53:43,623
Like a sensory experience at the

1728
03:53:43,623 --> 03:53:44,057
Park?

1729
03:53:44,057 --> 03:53:47,327
I know that it’s missing in most

1730
03:53:47,327 --> 03:53:49,963
Parks, but some cities in contra

1731
03:53:49,963 --> 03:53:52,332
Costa do in fact have a program

1732
03:53:52,332 --> 03:53:53,567
Specifically designed for people

1733
03:53:53,567 --> 03:53:54,868
With disabilities.

1734
03:53:54,868 --> 03:53:58,171
>> we have staff that are

1735
03:53:58,171 --> 03:54:01,241
Devoted to that.

1736
03:54:01,241 --> 03:54:03,276
>> mayor ron bernal: thank

1737
03:54:03,276 --> 03:54:03,944
You.

1738
03:54:03,944 --> 03:54:06,480
Any others?

1739
03:54:06,480 --> 03:54:10,217
One more, mr. Broom.

1740
03:54:10,217 --> 03:54:16,423
>> good evening, mayor and

1741
03:54:16,423 --> 03:54:17,023
Council.

1742
03:54:17,023 --> 03:54:18,592
Good to see you, collin.

1743
03:54:18,592 --> 03:54:23,763
I used to intern for st. Mount

1744
03:54:23,763 --> 03:54:26,967
Diablo and took a wilderness

1745
03:54:26,967 --> 03:54:28,368
First aid training.

1746
03:54:28,368 --> 03:54:30,003
They offer outdoor experiences

1747
03:54:30,003 --> 03:54:30,804
And the like.

1748
03:54:30,804 --> 03:54:33,607
To see the work pete has done

1749
03:54:33,607 --> 03:54:36,143
Having worked at dozer libby as

1750
03:54:36,143 --> 03:54:39,646
Well and other educational

1751
03:54:39,646 --> 03:54:40,747
Institutions in town, I would

1752
03:54:40,747 --> 03:54:43,116
Love to see the city -- perhaps

1753
03:54:43,116 --> 03:54:45,452
I can’t make it to the city

1754
03:54:45,452 --> 03:54:47,087
School standing committee

1755
03:54:47,087 --> 03:54:48,822
Because I’m teaching, however, I

1756
03:54:48,822 --> 03:54:50,724
Would love to see collaboration

1757
03:54:50,724 --> 03:54:52,225
With the city and school

1758
03:54:52,225 --> 03:54:56,530
District to enable our youth not

1759
03:54:56,530 --> 03:55:01,635
Only to have -- prowess in

1760
03:55:01,635 --> 03:55:05,472
Aquatic life saving, but

1761
03:55:05,472 --> 03:55:05,906
Wilderness education

1762
03:55:05,906 --> 03:55:06,473
Opportunities.

1763
03:55:06,473 --> 03:55:10,243
There are no outdoor education

1764
03:55:10,243 --> 03:55:11,578
Programs within the school

1765
03:55:11,578 --> 03:55:12,946
District I’m aware of at the

1766
03:55:12,946 --> 03:55:13,947
Moment.

1767
03:55:13,947 --> 03:55:15,015
Getting everyone to come

1768
03:55:15,015 --> 03:55:16,983
Together to partner toward that

1769
03:55:16,983 --> 03:55:19,820
And make it safer for the

1770
03:55:19,820 --> 03:55:22,022
Antioch residents to hike.

1771
03:55:22,022 --> 03:55:24,791
We have to deal with

1772
03:55:24,791 --> 03:55:26,226
Rattlesnakes -- there are a lot

1773
03:55:26,226 --> 03:55:26,960
Of hazards.

1774
03:55:26,960 --> 03:55:29,830
We may be close to █anurban

1775
03:55:29,830 --> 03:55:33,700
Environment, but you can get far

1776
03:55:33,700 --> 03:55:35,535
Away from help quickly.

1777
03:55:35,535 --> 03:55:37,170
Encouraging the community to get

1778
03:55:37,170 --> 03:55:38,705
That kind of training and

1779
03:55:38,705 --> 03:55:40,006
Education and the love for the

1780
03:55:40,006 --> 03:55:41,942
Experience of the outdoors would

1781
03:55:41,942 --> 03:55:42,909
Be amazing.

1782
03:55:42,909 --> 03:55:45,145
Seeing more of the program

1783
03:55:45,145 --> 03:55:48,448
Expand from aquatics to other

1784
03:55:48,448 --> 03:55:49,883
First aid would be amazing.

1785
03:55:49,883 --> 03:55:53,053
>> mayor ron bernal: thank

1786
03:55:53,053 --> 03:55:54,488
You.

1787
03:55:54,488 --> 03:56:00,393
All right, it’s to the council.

1788
03:56:00,393 --> 03:56:01,828
Mayor pro-tem.

1789
03:56:01,828 --> 03:56:03,430
>> two comments.

1790
03:56:03,430 --> 03:56:05,732
My son is 34 years old.

1791
03:56:05,732 --> 03:56:12,806
Hehe was a life guard now he’s a

1792
03:56:12,806 --> 03:56:16,476
Mitch michelin chef.

1793
03:56:16,476 --> 03:56:19,045
I’m happy with the experience he

1794
03:56:19,045 --> 03:56:19,212
Had.

1795
03:56:19,212 --> 03:56:21,181
It was good for him as he grew

1796
03:56:21,181 --> 03:56:21,848
Up.

1797
03:56:21,848 --> 03:56:24,351
I’m not letting you off on the

1798
03:56:24,351 --> 03:56:28,555
Pool facility at contra loma.

1799
03:56:28,555 --> 03:56:30,457
For decades, it played a

1800
03:56:30,457 --> 03:56:32,225
Critical role in the city of

1801
03:56:32,225 --> 03:56:32,459
Antioch.

1802
03:56:32,459 --> 03:56:35,262
It was a point that many, many

1803
03:56:35,262 --> 03:56:37,464
People participated in,

1804
03:56:37,464 --> 03:56:38,665
Particular people who did not

1805
03:56:38,665 --> 03:56:39,966
Have a lot of money.

1806
03:56:39,966 --> 03:56:43,103
It offered them extraordinary

1807
03:56:43,103 --> 03:56:44,671
Experiences, both in the

1808
03:56:44,671 --> 03:56:46,673
Wildlife but also in the

1809
03:56:46,673 --> 03:56:48,074
Swimming, lagoon and things of

1810
03:56:48,074 --> 03:56:48,708
That sort.

1811
03:56:48,708 --> 03:56:51,611
You talk about a different

1812
03:56:51,611 --> 03:56:53,380
Alternative being a built in

1813
03:56:53,380 --> 03:56:54,047
Pool.

1814
03:56:54,047 --> 03:56:55,782
My question is, what’s the

1815
03:56:55,782 --> 03:56:56,116
Timeline?

1816
03:56:56,116 --> 03:56:59,352
>> we are going to spend at

1817
03:56:59,352 --> 03:57:02,355
Least nine months from here on,

1818
03:57:02,355 --> 03:57:05,192
Now that we have the consultant

1819
03:57:05,192 --> 03:57:08,395
On these community engagement

1820
03:57:08,395 --> 03:57:09,896
Processes, so we get the

1821
03:57:09,896 --> 03:57:10,430
Feedback.

1822
03:57:10,430 --> 03:57:12,532
That informs the decision as to

1823
03:57:12,532 --> 03:57:14,167
What direction we want to go in

1824
03:57:14,167 --> 03:57:20,874
Createing a new facility there.

1825
03:57:20,874 --> 03:57:22,742
In theory, that could be done

1826
03:57:22,742 --> 03:57:26,246
End of the year or early nengs

1827
03:57:26,246 --> 03:57:26,780
Next year.

1828
03:57:26,780 --> 03:57:28,215
When would it be built?

1829
03:57:28,215 --> 03:57:29,950
I think you know from your

1830
03:57:29,950 --> 03:57:31,485
Experiences as I have learned

1831
03:57:31,485 --> 03:57:33,820
That, that is a function of

1832
03:57:33,820 --> 03:57:34,588
Fundraising.

1833
03:57:34,588 --> 03:57:36,523
We are very good at it.

1834
03:57:36,523 --> 03:57:39,392
We are very good at leveraging

1835
03:57:39,392 --> 03:57:41,795
Our own capital funding, and we

1836
03:57:41,795 --> 03:57:44,531
Are in pretty good shape on that

1837
03:57:44,531 --> 03:57:48,468
Level, and going out to other

1838
03:57:48,468 --> 03:57:49,302
Funders.

1839
03:57:49,302 --> 03:57:52,305
You reach a point where you

1840
03:57:52,305 --> 03:57:54,074
Hopefully are close to fully

1841
03:57:54,074 --> 03:57:55,842
Funded and start going out for

1842
03:57:55,842 --> 03:57:56,209
Construction.

1843
03:57:56,209 --> 03:57:58,211
I don’t know what that timeframe

1844
03:57:58,211 --> 03:57:58,812
Will be.

1845
03:57:58,812 --> 03:58:01,114
It’s going to need a new

1846
03:58:01,114 --> 03:58:02,616
Administration in washington,

1847
03:58:02,616 --> 03:58:03,316
For instance.

1848
03:58:03,316 --> 03:58:06,286
>> I hope it’s more of a

1849
03:58:06,286 --> 03:58:07,020
Priority.

1850
03:58:07,020 --> 03:58:09,990
Antioch has not had the lagoon,

1851
03:58:09,990 --> 03:58:12,325
Has not had the facility at

1852
03:58:12,325 --> 03:58:13,093
Least eight years?

1853
03:58:13,093 --> 03:58:16,129
>> three or four years now.

1854
03:58:16,129 --> 03:58:19,166
>> mayor pro-tem: it is a

1855
03:58:19,166 --> 03:58:21,468
Priority in the community, and

1856
03:58:21,468 --> 03:58:22,769
It’s missing.

1857
03:58:22,769 --> 03:58:24,871
We had discussion on the

1858
03:58:24,871 --> 03:58:25,839
District priority.

1859
03:58:25,839 --> 03:58:27,440
It’s needed in eastern contra

1860
03:58:27,440 --> 03:58:29,042
Costa county.

1861
03:58:29,042 --> 03:58:30,877
I hope you will republic us well

1862
03:58:30,877 --> 03:58:33,246
Because the faster the better it

1863
03:58:33,246 --> 03:58:34,514
Will be for our community.

1864
03:58:34,514 --> 03:58:36,917
>> I have my priorities and

1865
03:58:36,917 --> 03:58:38,785
Staff knows it.

1866
03:58:38,785 --> 03:58:41,421
I’m with you on that.

1867
03:58:41,421 --> 03:58:43,523
We took quite a bit of time

1868
03:58:43,523 --> 03:58:46,560
Talking to the water district

1869
03:58:46,560 --> 03:58:48,028
About whether we could go back

1870
03:58:48,028 --> 03:58:48,662
To swimming.

1871
03:58:48,662 --> 03:58:49,963
We have had the discussion.

1872
03:58:49,963 --> 03:58:52,799
We worked at that, and the

1873
03:58:52,799 --> 03:58:58,939
Answer with was no in the end.

1874
03:58:58,939 --> 03:59:01,074
>> take me along next time.

1875
03:59:01,074 --> 03:59:02,309
>> let’s go.

1876
03:59:02,309 --> 03:59:03,109
We can do that.

1877
03:59:03,109 --> 03:59:06,046
>> mayor ron bernal: anyone

1878
03:59:06,046 --> 03:59:06,580
Else?

1879
03:59:06,580 --> 03:59:07,547
Any other questions?

1880
03:59:07,547 --> 03:59:09,549
I want to thank you, director

1881
03:59:09,549 --> 03:59:10,250
Coffee.

1882
03:59:10,250 --> 03:59:12,385
Pete, thank you for letting us

1883
03:59:12,385 --> 03:59:14,054
Know -- I wasn’t aware that all

1884
03:59:14,054 --> 03:59:16,089
Of this has been and continues

1885
03:59:16,089 --> 03:59:20,494
To go on and is growing and down

1886
03:59:20,494 --> 03:59:23,330
To the elementary levels.

1887
03:59:23,330 --> 03:59:26,066
The numbers you are putting out

1888
03:59:26,066 --> 03:59:27,501
There is something to be proud

1889
03:59:27,501 --> 03:59:29,469

That’s what you have done in

1892
03:59:33,940 --> 03:59:35,709
Figuring out a way to help our

1893
03:59:35,709 --> 03:59:37,677
Youth and train them to swim,

1894
03:59:37,677 --> 03:59:40,514
And train them in cpr, those are

1895
03:59:40,514 --> 03:59:42,149
Two important skills, especially

1896
03:59:42,149 --> 03:59:44,251
Where you live on the delta.

1897
03:59:44,251 --> 03:59:46,653

Is there a question on this or

1942
04:01:33,226 --> 04:01:34,461
Do you want a full

1943
04:01:34,461 --> 04:01:35,762

>> it was a question.

1951
04:01:48,141 --> 04:01:50,977
I was wondering about the

1952
04:01:50,977 --> 04:01:53,613
Listings of the streets.

1953
04:01:53,613 --> 04:01:55,782
When are they getting to j

1954
04:01:55,782 --> 04:01:58,952
Street and west 10th?

1955
04:01:58,952 --> 04:02:01,688
Those are two streets I have

1956
04:02:01,688 --> 04:02:09,930
Lived on that are just tore up,

1957
04:02:09,930 --> 04:02:11,598
And people are racing through

1958
04:02:11,598 --> 04:02:13,333
There and there are so many

1959
04:02:13,333 --> 04:02:15,535
Children on j.

1960
04:02:15,535 --> 04:02:16,603
Apartments -- they are out there

1961
04:02:16,603 --> 04:02:18,038
Playing in the street.

1962
04:02:18,038 --> 04:02:19,806
I’m wondering when they are

1963
04:02:19,806 --> 04:02:22,976
Getting to j street and also

1964
04:02:22,976 --> 04:02:26,580
West 10th, the street I used to

1965
04:02:26,580 --> 04:02:27,013
Live on.

1966
04:02:27,013 --> 04:02:28,215
>> mayor ron bernal: thank

1967
04:02:28,215 --> 04:02:28,882

Item?

04:02:32,719 --> 04:02:33,420

1972
04:02:33,420 --> 04:02:35,989
>> I’m actually glad you are

1973
04:02:35,989 --> 04:02:36,756
Bringing this up.

1974
04:02:36,756 --> 04:02:39,493
I wasn’t aware, but we had a

1975
04:02:39,493 --> 04:02:41,561
Huge accident where the school

1976
04:02:41,561 --> 04:02:45,065
Teacher was hit by a car on

1977
04:02:45,065 --> 04:02:47,467
Laurel, and country hills over

1978
04:02:47,467 --> 04:02:48,802
The weekend.

1979
04:02:48,802 --> 04:02:50,370
Since we have opened up laurel,

1980
04:02:50,370 --> 04:02:52,572
We are up to four or five, and

1981
04:02:52,572 --> 04:02:54,407
That’s a lot of people being

1982
04:02:54,407 --> 04:02:56,176
Injured in that timeframe.

1983
04:02:56,176 --> 04:02:58,311
Some of the neighbors -- we get

1984
04:02:58,311 --> 04:03:00,380
Together in the neighborhood.

1985
04:03:00,380 --> 04:03:02,282
There are like 50 people trying

1986
04:03:02,282 --> 04:03:03,850
To figure out what’s going on.

1987
04:03:03,850 --> 04:03:06,253
We are all hoping you put a

1988
04:03:06,253 --> 04:03:08,889
Street light in there.

1989
04:03:08,889 --> 04:03:10,757
That would save a lot of lives,

1990
04:03:10,757 --> 04:03:11,958
I think.

1991
04:03:11,958 --> 04:03:12,325

Earlier in 2025?

Wasn’t the money put aside for

Oh, one more.

Easier for you, sir, but you

Violent the brown act.

2045
04:04:57,697 --> 04:04:59,432
People don’t need to give you

2046
04:04:59,432 --> 04:05:02,169
Their name, fill out cards and

2047
04:05:02,169 --> 04:05:04,905
You don’t need to answer me.

2048
04:05:04,905 --> 04:05:07,007
It’s my three minutes.

2049
04:05:07,007 --> 04:05:08,542
I’m recapturing my time.

2050
04:05:08,542 --> 04:05:10,210
My name is john.

2051
04:05:10,210 --> 04:05:12,846
Been a resident of antioch for

2052
04:05:12,846 --> 04:05:15,215
25 years.

2053
04:05:15,215 --> 04:05:22,856
I think we have mr. He haven he hefen berger?

Brad?

2055
04:05:23,723 --> 04:05:25,725
The guy that used to be in

2056
04:05:25,725 --> 04:05:28,061
Charge of recreation, the

2057
04:05:28,061 --> 04:05:28,962
Waterpark?

2058
04:05:28,962 --> 04:05:31,431
He did such a lousy job that we

2059
04:05:31,431 --> 04:05:33,400
Don’t have a waterpark.

2060
04:05:33,400 --> 04:05:36,369
You need to stop calling it

2061
04:05:36,369 --> 04:05:36,670
That.

2062
04:05:36,670 --> 04:05:38,305
What we have is a swimming

2063
04:05:38,305 --> 04:05:38,505
Pool.

2064
04:05:38,505 --> 04:05:41,508
We have a swimming pool at

2065
04:05:41,508 --> 04:05:41,942
Pruitt.

2066
04:05:41,942 --> 04:05:44,344
None of the water slides work.

2067
04:05:44,344 --> 04:05:46,746
Now, let’s go back ten years.

2068
04:05:46,746 --> 04:05:51,017
We used to have water slides

2069
04:05:51,017 --> 04:05:52,652
Even they were good enough for

2070
04:05:52,652 --> 04:05:53,587
Adults.

2071
04:05:53,587 --> 04:05:55,155
People would bring their kids,

2072
04:05:55,155 --> 04:05:58,225
Go down them a few times, but

2073
04:05:58,225 --> 04:06:00,427
Most of the time it was for

2074
04:06:00,427 --> 04:06:01,194
Their kids.

2075
04:06:01,194 --> 04:06:02,929
During the week, you would drive

2076
04:06:02,929 --> 04:06:05,565
By and see in the parking lot

2077
04:06:05,565 --> 04:06:08,068
Ten school busses.

2078
04:06:08,068 --> 04:06:10,270
People -- high schools from all

2079
04:06:10,270 --> 04:06:12,005
Over contra costa county used to

2080
04:06:12,005 --> 04:06:13,340
Bring field trips to the

2081
04:06:13,340 --> 04:06:14,141
Waterpark.

2082
04:06:14,141 --> 04:06:16,376
That’s how you guys -- that’s

2083
04:06:16,376 --> 04:06:18,578
How it paid for itself.

2084
04:06:18,578 --> 04:06:20,981
Busses used to show up with

2085
04:06:20,981 --> 04:06:22,516
Junior high, high school and

2086
04:06:22,516 --> 04:06:24,251
They loved it.

2087
04:06:24,251 --> 04:06:29,089
As soon as mr. Hefen burger -- I

2088
04:06:29,089 --> 04:06:32,359
Hope I’m pronouncing his name

2089
04:06:32,359 --> 04:06:32,793
Right.

2090
04:06:32,793 --> 04:06:35,095
I have a hard name to pronounce

2091
04:06:35,095 --> 04:06:35,529
Too.

2092
04:06:35,529 --> 04:06:37,397
He used to come before you and

2093
04:06:37,397 --> 04:06:39,900
Say this is the gem of the bay

2094
04:06:39,900 --> 04:06:40,767
Area.

2095
04:06:40,767 --> 04:06:43,303
No, when the water slides broke,

2096
04:06:43,303 --> 04:06:46,139
What did brad do in first thing

2097
04:06:46,139 --> 04:06:49,409
He did was raised the prices.

2098
04:06:49,409 --> 04:06:51,711
We have no water slides now.

2099
04:06:51,711 --> 04:06:53,647
It’s just a swimming pool, and

2100
04:06:53,647 --> 04:06:55,215
We are going to raise the

2101
04:06:55,215 --> 04:06:55,782
Prices.

2102
04:06:55,782 --> 04:06:56,850
Guess what happens?

2103
04:06:56,850 --> 04:06:59,820
We don’t have any money.

2104
04:06:59,820 --> 04:07:01,988
Brad keeps coming to you asking

2105
04:07:01,988 --> 04:07:02,889
You for money.

2106
04:07:02,889 --> 04:07:05,292
Some of you are asking the right

2107
04:07:05,292 --> 04:07:05,659
Questions.

2108
04:07:05,659 --> 04:07:09,196
We can’t afford a waterpark.

2109
04:07:09,196 --> 04:07:10,964
It would be nice to pick up

2110
04:07:10,964 --> 04:07:12,732
Everybody and bring them to

2111
04:07:12,732 --> 04:07:13,500
Swim.

2112
04:07:13,500 --> 04:07:16,102
We can’t afford a waterpark.

2113
04:07:16,102 --> 04:07:18,939
When brad was in charge, he let

2114
04:07:18,939 --> 04:07:20,707
It deteriorate.

2115
04:07:20,707 --> 04:07:22,442
Now it’s a swimming pool.

2116
04:07:22,442 --> 04:07:24,878
Stop calling it a waterpark.

2117
04:07:24,878 --> 04:07:27,047
We shouldn’t put money into it

2118
04:07:27,047 --> 04:07:29,349
When we have deficits, millions

2119
04:07:29,349 --> 04:07:30,217
Of dollars.

2120
04:07:30,217 --> 04:07:32,786
You raise the prices and don’t

2121
04:07:32,786 --> 04:07:35,655
Have water slides, and now you

2122
04:07:35,655 --> 04:07:39,893
Want to put 300,000 -- another

2123
04:07:39,893 --> 04:07:41,294
Hundred thousand.

2124
04:07:41,294 --> 04:07:42,762
Last year they said why don’t

2125
04:07:42,762 --> 04:07:45,065
You give us $200,000 every year

2126
04:07:45,065 --> 04:07:46,566
And we’ll use it.

2127
04:07:46,566 --> 04:07:49,002
Please, don’t be idiots, okay?

2128
04:07:49,002 --> 04:07:51,271
You are spending our money

2129
04:07:51,271 --> 04:07:51,805
Foolishly.

2130
04:07:51,805 --> 04:07:53,707
I have been coming up here ten

2131
04:07:53,707 --> 04:07:56,209
Years to tell you, you are

2132
04:07:56,209 --> 04:07:57,544
Spending your money foolishly.

2133
04:07:57,544 --> 04:08:01,047
One of us is right.

2134
04:08:01,047 --> 04:08:04,651
>> mayor ron bernal: thank

2135
04:08:04,651 --> 04:08:05,485
You.

2136
04:08:05,485 --> 04:08:08,622
>> I have notes on the waterpark

2137
04:08:08,622 --> 04:08:09,890
I have been thinking of.

2138
04:08:09,890 --> 04:08:12,959
I’m going to disagree with

2139
04:08:12,959 --> 04:08:14,361
Mr. Johnny walker, though I

2140
04:08:14,361 --> 04:08:15,362
Appreciate him.

2141
04:08:15,362 --> 04:08:17,230
I don’t think we need another

2142
04:08:17,230 --> 04:08:18,865
Closed asset in antioch.

2143
04:08:18,865 --> 04:08:20,600
We have a lot of things

2144
04:08:20,600 --> 04:08:20,834
Closing.

2145
04:08:20,834 --> 04:08:23,003
I want to talk about how to make

2146
04:08:23,003 --> 04:08:25,605
The waterpark profitable, an

2147
04:08:25,605 --> 04:08:28,041
Asset not just to city finances,

2148
04:08:28,041 --> 04:08:29,376
But community as well.

2149
04:08:29,376 --> 04:08:31,878
The real issue to me is

2150
04:08:31,878 --> 04:08:32,746
Management and customer

2151
04:08:32,746 --> 04:08:33,313
Experience.

2152
04:08:33,313 --> 04:08:36,817
I went and reviewed the reviews

2153
04:08:36,817 --> 04:08:37,551
On it.

2154
04:08:37,551 --> 04:08:38,752
Not great.

2155
04:08:38,752 --> 04:08:40,086
Poor customer service.

2156
04:08:40,086 --> 04:08:42,923
We need to reward the staff who

2157
04:08:42,923 --> 04:08:44,224
Deliver excellent customer

2158
04:08:44,224 --> 04:08:47,727
Service and help maintain a

2159
04:08:47,727 --> 04:08:49,396
Positive park experience for the

2160
04:08:49,396 --> 04:08:50,230
Guests.

2161
04:08:50,230 --> 04:08:54,167
A well-run park attracts repeat

2162
04:08:54,167 --> 04:08:57,037
Visitors and boosts revenue.

2163
04:08:57,037 --> 04:08:58,772
I suggest setting a goal on

2164
04:08:58,772 --> 04:08:59,973
Increasing it each year.

2165
04:08:59,973 --> 04:09:01,741
Here are ideas that you don’t

2166
04:09:01,741 --> 04:09:02,776
Offer.

2167
04:09:02,776 --> 04:09:03,143
Monthly passes.

2168
04:09:03,143 --> 04:09:07,914
Instead of a whole year pass,

2169
04:09:07,914 --> 04:09:10,150
Maybe a monthly pass for

2170
04:09:10,150 --> 04:09:11,685
Grandkids visiting.

2171
04:09:11,685 --> 04:09:13,553
Maybe weekend passes, parents

2172
04:09:13,553 --> 04:09:17,824
Are at work.

2173
04:09:17,824 --> 04:09:20,093
Bundled entry and food options,

2174
04:09:20,093 --> 04:09:22,629
Buy a ticket and it comes with a

2175
04:09:22,629 --> 04:09:25,031
Drink or something.

2176
04:09:25,031 --> 04:09:28,301
Council of teens, have them plan

2177
04:09:28,301 --> 04:09:30,237
Something fun that teens would

2178
04:09:30,237 --> 04:09:30,604
Like.

2179
04:09:30,604 --> 04:09:33,006
Our slides from having kids,

2180
04:09:33,006 --> 04:09:35,108
It’s not really something my

2181
04:09:35,108 --> 04:09:38,712
Kids as teenagers wented to go

2182
04:09:38,712 --> 04:09:39,479
To.

2183
04:09:39,479 --> 04:09:41,348
When they were younger, they

2184
04:09:41,348 --> 04:09:42,749
Liked going there.

2185
04:09:42,749 --> 04:09:45,952
Maybe cabanas to do cabana

2186
04:09:45,952 --> 04:09:48,555
Rentals.

2187
04:09:48,555 --> 04:09:52,392
Souvenir cups.

2188
04:09:52,392 --> 04:09:56,863
$10 that day, free refills on

2189
04:09:56,863 --> 04:09:58,231
Subsequent visits.

2190
04:09:58,231 --> 04:10:01,034
Host days might make it fun.

2191
04:10:01,034 --> 04:10:06,940
Invite our neighbors, brentwork,

2192
04:10:06,940 --> 04:10:08,809
Pittsburgh.

2193
04:10:08,809 --> 04:10:09,676
Oakley.

2194
04:10:09,676 --> 04:10:11,378
This is pittsburgh, talk to the

2195
04:10:11,378 --> 04:10:13,413
City councils, get them to come

2196
04:10:13,413 --> 04:10:14,281
To it.

2197
04:10:14,281 --> 04:10:16,817
Talk to schools, do a deer

2198
04:10:16,817 --> 04:10:20,387
Valley swim night.

2199
04:10:20,387 --> 04:10:22,589
Sutter swim night.

2200
04:10:22,589 --> 04:10:25,125
I think we need to be more

2201
04:10:25,125 --> 04:10:25,559
Innovative.

2202
04:10:25,559 --> 04:10:27,627
I have more smart management.

2203
04:10:27,627 --> 04:10:30,030
I met nicole, her assistant.

2204
04:10:30,030 --> 04:10:32,332
She’s lovely.

2205
04:10:32,332 --> 04:10:34,067
She should train everybody on

2206
04:10:34,067 --> 04:10:36,503
Customer service, if you ask

2207
04:10:36,503 --> 04:10:38,772
Me.

2208
04:10:38,772 --> 04:10:40,540
I have more suggestions.

2209
04:10:40,540 --> 04:10:45,545
I can e-mail them if you want me

2210
04:10:45,545 --> 04:10:46,780
To.

2211
04:10:46,780 --> 04:10:49,182
>> mayor ron bernal: anybody

2212
04:10:49,182 --> 04:10:51,284
Else?

2213
04:10:51,284 --> 04:10:55,455
>> clerk: no further public

2214
04:10:55,455 --> 04:10:56,556
Comments.

2215
04:10:56,556 --> 04:10:59,226
>> mayor ron bernal:

2216
04:10:59,226 --> 04:11:00,660
Councilmember torres-walker?

2217
04:11:00,660 --> 04:11:02,395
>> city manager scott, can you

2218
04:11:02,395 --> 04:11:04,498
Let us know what you have been

2219
04:11:04,498 --> 04:11:07,100
Doing related to improving

2220
04:11:07,100 --> 04:11:08,535
Customer service in the city of

2221
04:11:08,535 --> 04:11:09,002
Antioch?

2222
04:11:09,002 --> 04:11:12,539
>> yes, in terms of cultural

2223
04:11:12,539 --> 04:11:12,906
Responsiveness?

2224
04:11:12,906 --> 04:11:16,776
Our staff is being trained on

2225
04:11:16,776 --> 04:11:19,579
Basically how to give good

2226
04:11:19,579 --> 04:11:20,881
Customer service.

2227
04:11:20,881 --> 04:11:22,215
That starts from the

2228
04:11:22,215 --> 04:11:23,216
Organizational culture,

2229
04:11:23,216 --> 04:11:26,219
Answering the phones, returning

2230
04:11:26,219 --> 04:11:27,354
Messages within a certain amount

2231
04:11:27,354 --> 04:11:28,355
Of time.

2232
04:11:28,355 --> 04:11:31,691
I think as exemplified by the

2233
04:11:31,691 --> 04:11:32,893
Executive assistant to the

2234
04:11:32,893 --> 04:11:34,761
Clerk’s office and with the

2235
04:11:34,761 --> 04:11:39,266
Parks and rec team as well as

2236
04:11:39,266 --> 04:11:42,169
Motz rots team a tenant of our

2237
04:11:42,169 --> 04:11:44,237
Values, and we are doing things

2238
04:11:44,237 --> 04:11:46,540
To increase how we do customer

2239
04:11:46,540 --> 04:11:47,107
Service.

2240
04:11:47,107 --> 04:11:49,910
You heard about that in code

2241
04:11:49,910 --> 04:11:50,210
Enforcement.

2242
04:11:50,210 --> 04:11:53,847
Some people want to wear certain

2243
04:11:53,847 --> 04:11:54,080
Jackets.

2244
04:11:54,080 --> 04:11:56,316
It depends on the areas they go

2245
04:11:56,316 --> 04:11:57,751
Into as well as the service they

2246
04:11:57,751 --> 04:11:58,952
Are delivering.

2247
04:11:58,952 --> 04:12:01,188
It’s something we are working on

2248
04:12:01,188 --> 04:12:01,455
Actively.

2249
04:12:01,455 --> 04:12:04,090
It’s a part of not only our --

2250
04:12:04,090 --> 04:12:06,226
How we put on the face of the

2251
04:12:06,226 --> 04:12:10,197
City, but also how we do it

2252
04:12:10,197 --> 04:12:11,465
Throughout performance

2253
04:12:11,465 --> 04:12:13,066
Management and progressive

2254
04:12:13,066 --> 04:12:14,134
Discipline.

2255
04:12:14,134 --> 04:12:17,337
>> I know I was introduced to

2256
04:12:17,337 --> 04:12:18,638
The gentleman leading the

2257
04:12:18,638 --> 04:12:20,607
Strategy for the city, and I

2258
04:12:20,607 --> 04:12:23,610
Also got to see the inverted

2259
04:12:23,610 --> 04:12:25,512
Triangle and how services from

2260
04:12:25,512 --> 04:12:29,549
The bottom up, not the top down,

2261
04:12:29,549 --> 04:12:33,086
Is that training happening in

2262
04:12:33,086 --> 04:12:34,554
Each department separately to

2263
04:12:34,554 --> 04:12:37,190
Address the issues and also

2264
04:12:37,190 --> 04:12:37,891
Collectively?

2265
04:12:37,891 --> 04:12:40,193
>> yes, it’s baked within how we

2266
04:12:40,193 --> 04:12:42,195
Look at the operational

2267
04:12:42,195 --> 04:12:44,197
Assessment as well as how we do

2268
04:12:44,197 --> 04:12:46,199
Process improvement and service

2269
04:12:46,199 --> 04:12:47,000
Delivery.

2270
04:12:47,000 --> 04:12:48,969
I believe that councilmember

2271
04:12:48,969 --> 04:12:51,872
Wilson was saying she stumbled

2272
04:12:51,872 --> 04:12:54,474
Into the inaugural meeting of

2273
04:12:54,474 --> 04:12:56,543
The administrative assistants.

2274
04:12:56,543 --> 04:12:59,212
For the first time every

2275
04:12:59,212 --> 04:13:00,247
Administrative assistant in the

2276
04:13:00,247 --> 04:13:03,216
City got into one work to talk

2277
04:13:03,216 --> 04:13:04,885
About how to operationalize the

2278
04:13:04,885 --> 04:13:06,386
City council and directors from

2279
04:13:06,386 --> 04:13:08,622
The time they walk in to the

2280
04:13:08,622 --> 04:13:10,223
Time they get out?

2281
04:13:10,223 --> 04:13:12,325
How do we make sure we have the

2282
04:13:12,325 --> 04:13:14,161
Same information across all

2283
04:13:14,161 --> 04:13:16,496
Levels from the directors to the

2284
04:13:16,496 --> 04:13:18,198
Line staff so everything

2285
04:13:18,198 --> 04:13:20,433
Cascades up and down so we have

2286
04:13:20,433 --> 04:13:22,836
The best service delivery for

2287
04:13:22,836 --> 04:13:23,637
Community.

2288
04:13:23,637 --> 04:13:26,239
It’s a big deal when we sort of

2289
04:13:26,239 --> 04:13:27,874
Cascade all of the everies to

2290
04:13:27,874 --> 04:13:29,943
Make sure that the information

2291
04:13:29,943 --> 04:13:31,912
Is out and what does it mean for

2292
04:13:31,912 --> 04:13:35,582
The pio, jaden, to make sure

2293
04:13:35,582 --> 04:13:37,551
Customers and residents get more

2294
04:13:37,551 --> 04:13:38,452
Information about what’s

2295
04:13:38,452 --> 04:13:39,286
Happening in the city.

2296
04:13:39,286 --> 04:13:42,489
We see that with biweekly report

2297
04:13:42,489 --> 04:13:48,295
Inaugural ral administrative to

2298
04:13:48,295 --> 04:13:49,830
Front line staff getting

2299
04:13:49,830 --> 04:13:51,731
Together to talk about how to

2300
04:13:51,731 --> 04:13:54,201
Engage with the public and have

2301
04:13:54,201 --> 04:13:55,368
Feedback between the council and

2302
04:13:55,368 --> 04:13:55,969
Community.

2303
04:13:55,969 --> 04:13:57,604
>> councilmember torres-walker:

2304
04:13:57,604 --> 04:13:57,904
Thank you.

\hthank you.

2306
04:13:57,904 --> 04:14:01,241
I wanted to make sure melissa

2307
04:14:01,241 --> 04:14:03,477
Knew that the city is working on

2308
04:14:03,477 --> 04:14:05,378
Improving customer service.

2309
04:14:05,378 --> 04:14:06,313
>> mayor ron bernal: thank

2310
04:14:06,313 --> 04:14:06,880
You.

2311
04:14:06,880 --> 04:14:08,849
Any other questions on items j

2312
04:14:08,849 --> 04:14:10,917
And k on the consent calendar?

2313
04:14:10,917 --> 04:14:13,887
Could I have a motion to approve

2314
04:14:13,887 --> 04:14:15,856
Those, please?

2315
04:14:15,856 --> 04:14:17,724
It was on the waterpark.

2316
04:14:17,724 --> 04:14:20,093
These are the two items we were

2317
04:14:20,093 --> 04:14:20,660
Just addressing.

2318
04:14:20,660 --> 04:14:22,529
>> I move to approve.

2319
04:14:22,529 --> 04:14:25,265
>> motion from councilmember

04:14:25,265 --> 04:14:25,866

Please cast your votes.

2325
04:14:29,769 --> 04:14:31,605
>> clerk.

2326
04:14:31,605 --> 04:14:34,074
Confirming this is to vote on

2327
04:14:34,074 --> 04:14:35,041
Both j and k.

2328
04:14:35,041 --> 04:14:36,676
>> mayor ron bernal: yes.

2329
04:14:36,676 --> 04:14:40,514

>> you didn’t do k yet.

2331
04:14:44,384 --> 04:14:45,886
You did h and j.

2332
04:14:45,886 --> 04:14:47,988
>> mayor ron bernal: my

2333
04:14:47,988 --> 04:14:49,890
Understanding was this was both

2334
04:14:49,890 --> 04:14:50,657
Items.

2335
04:14:50,657 --> 04:14:53,860
We can vote on item j if folks

2336
04:14:53,860 --> 04:14:58,064
Want to talk about item k

2337
04:14:58,064 --> 04:15:00,767
Waterpark concrete

2338
04:15:00,767 --> 04:15:01,468
Improvements.

2339
04:15:01,468 --> 04:15:03,303
Please make a motion for item

2340
04:15:03,303 --> 04:15:03,537

Improvement project pw567-17, do

2347
04:15:23,757 --> 04:15:34,634
We have public comment on this?

2348
04:15:34,634 --> 04:15:37,704
>> let’s combine the two items.

2349
04:15:37,704 --> 04:15:39,973
That way, we can get rid of some

2350
04:15:39,973 --> 04:15:41,675
Of the public comment.

2351
04:15:41,675 --> 04:15:43,643
Is that what you are thinking?

2352
04:15:43,643 --> 04:15:45,445
When you first started, you

2353
04:15:45,445 --> 04:15:47,614
Didn’t is ask for public

2354
04:15:47,614 --> 04:15:48,181
Comment.

2355
04:15:48,181 --> 04:15:50,550
We had to keep reminding you.

2356
04:15:50,550 --> 04:15:51,985
The most important thing in the

2357
04:15:51,985 --> 04:15:53,620
Room is the public comment.

2358
04:15:53,620 --> 04:15:55,288
You don’t want to combine a

2359
04:15:55,288 --> 04:15:57,324
Bunch of items because someone

2360
04:15:57,324 --> 04:15:59,526
Might want to speak on k and not

2361
04:15:59,526 --> 04:16:04,564
On j, okay?

2362
04:16:04,564 --> 04:16:10,937
What am I speaking on again?

2363
04:16:10,937 --> 04:16:14,307
>> brad hefen burger.

2364
04:16:14,307 --> 04:16:16,810
He used to be the head of

2365
04:16:16,810 --> 04:16:18,044
Recreation and park.

2366
04:16:18,044 --> 04:16:19,780
He was in charge of the

2367
04:16:19,780 --> 04:16:20,213
Waterpark.

2368
04:16:20,213 --> 04:16:22,849
He did a terrible job.

2369
04:16:22,849 --> 04:16:25,252
The waterpark went downhill.

2370
04:16:25,252 --> 04:16:26,987
No more water slides.

2371
04:16:26,987 --> 04:16:31,158
No more busses of kids to keep

2372
04:16:31,158 --> 04:16:32,592
The waterpark going.

2373
04:16:32,592 --> 04:16:34,761
Brad let the waterpark fail.

2374
04:16:34,761 --> 04:16:36,863
Our city manager, what does she

2375
04:16:36,863 --> 04:16:38,598
Do?

2376
04:16:38,598 --> 04:16:40,133
She promoted him.

2377
04:16:40,133 --> 04:16:41,868
I used to work for the post

2378
04:16:41,868 --> 04:16:42,369
Office.

2379
04:16:42,369 --> 04:16:43,937
That was the thing they did

2380
04:16:43,937 --> 04:16:44,738
There.

2381
04:16:44,738 --> 04:16:47,541
If you skewed up bad, really

2382
04:16:47,541 --> 04:16:49,643
Bad, that’s how you got

2383
04:16:49,643 --> 04:16:50,410
Promoted.

2384
04:16:50,410 --> 04:16:52,712
That’s how government agencies

2385
04:16:52,712 --> 04:16:54,247
Work.

2386
04:16:54,247 --> 04:16:57,317
You screwup, they move you

2387
04:16:57,317 --> 04:16:58,318
Around, promote you.

2388
04:16:58,318 --> 04:17:00,954
Why did we promote brad?

2389
04:17:00,954 --> 04:17:03,557
Why did we promote joe?

2390
04:17:03,557 --> 04:17:07,060
The city is not safer after joe

2391
04:17:07,060 --> 04:17:09,996
Was a policeman for a year.

2392
04:17:09,996 --> 04:17:11,331
You promoted him.

2393
04:17:11,331 --> 04:17:11,865
Why?

2394
04:17:11,865 --> 04:17:14,935
Where is the traffic division?

2395
04:17:14,935 --> 04:17:18,205
Brad hefen burger, director of

2396
04:17:18,205 --> 04:17:19,739
Public -- what’s it called?

2397
04:17:19,739 --> 04:17:21,942
I don’t know.

2398
04:17:21,942 --> 04:17:23,477
He ran the waterpark.

2399
04:17:23,477 --> 04:17:25,212
He did a terrible job.

2400
04:17:25,212 --> 04:17:28,849
You guys -- one, two, three,

2401
04:17:28,849 --> 04:17:31,785
Four, five -- it’s not polite to

2402
04:17:31,785 --> 04:17:32,352
Point.

2403
04:17:32,352 --> 04:17:34,855
I’m going to do this thing, you

2404
04:17:34,855 --> 04:17:38,358
Five gave away $300,000 that we

2405
04:17:38,358 --> 04:17:40,994
Don’t have to fix a waterpark

2406
04:17:40,994 --> 04:17:42,829
That’s already broken nobody

2407
04:17:42,829 --> 04:17:45,098
Wants to go to unless they are

2408
04:17:45,098 --> 04:17:47,000
Five or six years old.

2409
04:17:47,000 --> 04:17:48,535
We had an excellent

2410
04:17:48,535 --> 04:17:49,236
Presentation.

2411
04:17:49,236 --> 04:17:51,371
Wouldn’t you all agree, by the

2412
04:17:51,371 --> 04:17:54,441
Fire guys.

2413
04:17:54,441 --> 04:17:56,977
The excellent things they are

2414
04:17:56,977 --> 04:17:59,279
Doing at our two pools.

2415
04:17:59,279 --> 04:18:01,348
Look what they did with two

2416
04:18:01,348 --> 04:18:03,316
Pools sitting there for years.

2417
04:18:03,316 --> 04:18:05,485
They trained the life guards.

2418
04:18:05,485 --> 04:18:08,789
What was brad doing in brad has

2419
04:18:08,789 --> 04:18:14,127
A nice job for the teenagers.

2420
04:18:14,127 --> 04:18:16,429
Pretty much, we are subsidizing

2421
04:18:16,429 --> 04:18:16,963
It.

2422
04:18:16,963 --> 04:18:19,699
The park is not paying for

2423
04:18:19,699 --> 04:18:20,033
Itself.

2424
04:18:20,033 --> 04:18:21,802
We can’t afford it.

2425
04:18:21,802 --> 04:18:24,004
You guys want to keep spending

2426
04:18:24,004 --> 04:18:25,639
Money, you won’t listen to me.

2427
04:18:25,639 --> 04:18:27,808
I have been coming up here seven

2428
04:18:27,808 --> 04:18:30,677
Years telling you, you are going

2429
04:18:30,677 --> 04:18:31,445
To be bankrupt.

2430
04:18:31,445 --> 04:18:32,979
I don’t want to be the one to

2431
04:18:32,979 --> 04:18:35,282
Say I told you so, but stick

2432
04:18:35,282 --> 04:18:39,586
Around for a little bit, okay?

2433
04:18:39,586 --> 04:18:40,387
[beep ]

2434
04:18:40,387 --> 04:18:42,656
>> mayor ron bernal: we have

2435
04:18:42,656 --> 04:18:59,706
Another public comment.

2436
04:18:59,706 --> 04:19:11,852
>> thank you.

2437
04:19:11,852 --> 04:19:14,254
I can say that I did grow up

2438
04:19:14,254 --> 04:19:16,857
Going to that waterpark and I

2439
04:19:16,857 --> 04:19:18,425
Did enjoy it as a youth.

2440
04:19:18,425 --> 04:19:21,695
I appreciate it being there

2441
04:19:21,695 --> 04:19:22,896
Today.

2442
04:19:22,896 --> 04:19:25,031
But, I’ll tell you now as an

2443
04:19:25,031 --> 04:19:27,434
Adult I have a responsibility to

2444
04:19:27,434 --> 04:19:29,069
Myself and my family.

2445
04:19:29,069 --> 04:19:32,139
I’m a taxpayer.

2446
04:19:32,139 --> 04:19:34,975
We discussed how precious the

2447
04:19:34,975 --> 04:19:38,245
Tax dollars are.

2448
04:19:38,245 --> 04:19:41,615
So, I’m genuinely concerned that

2449
04:19:41,615 --> 04:19:45,452
We are putting through consent

2450
04:19:45,452 --> 04:19:47,988
Calendar capital improvement

2451
04:19:47,988 --> 04:19:51,491
Projects that we have previously

2452
04:19:51,491 --> 04:19:53,727
Approved for significant capital

2453
04:19:53,727 --> 04:19:56,329
Improvement projects in a park

2454
04:19:56,329 --> 04:19:59,399
That has historically brought us

2455
04:19:59,399 --> 04:20:01,368
Net negative annually.

2456
04:20:01,368 --> 04:20:03,136
When I first started looking

2457
04:20:03,136 --> 04:20:05,539
Into this park, it was losing

2458
04:20:05,539 --> 04:20:08,175
500 to $800,000.00 a year.

2459
04:20:08,175 --> 04:20:11,478
Coming from our general fund,

2460
04:20:11,478 --> 04:20:18,485
Transferred over every year.

2461
04:20:18,485 --> 04:20:20,487
All other funds -- I remember

2462
04:20:20,487 --> 04:20:24,324
One year I found that the delta

2463
04:20:24,324 --> 04:20:26,827
Fair 211 fund transferred

2464
04:20:26,827 --> 04:20:28,462
Dollarss into the waterpark and

2465
04:20:28,462 --> 04:20:29,129
That’s not legal.

2466
04:20:29,129 --> 04:20:33,166
It was to go to parks built

2467
04:20:33,166 --> 04:20:34,434
Before 1980.

2468
04:20:34,434 --> 04:20:37,003
Today, that park is losing over

2469
04:20:37,003 --> 04:20:41,374
A million dollars a year.

2470
04:20:41,374 --> 04:20:43,677
Then, we have a capital

2471
04:20:43,677 --> 04:20:46,313
Improvement project that we are

2472
04:20:46,313 --> 04:20:50,550
Scheduling here in spring to

2473
04:20:50,550 --> 04:20:52,519
Replaster two pools that are

2474
04:20:52,519 --> 04:20:54,921
Main drivers for people going

2475
04:20:54,921 --> 04:20:57,224
There that should end in june

2476
04:20:57,224 --> 04:20:59,860
Into the swim season?

2477
04:20:59,860 --> 04:21:02,062
So that means we understand, we

2478
04:21:02,062 --> 04:21:04,364
Run the park at a negative.

2479
04:21:04,364 --> 04:21:05,765
Let’s spend money we can’t

2480
04:21:05,765 --> 04:21:07,734
Afford on a project during a

2481
04:21:07,734 --> 04:21:09,169
Time when we could be making

2482
04:21:09,169 --> 04:21:10,403
Money there.

2483
04:21:10,403 --> 04:21:14,107
That is already going to be a

2484
04:21:14,107 --> 04:21:15,842
Net negative.

2485
04:21:15,842 --> 04:21:17,410
That’s realistically like

2486
04:21:17,410 --> 04:21:19,913
Someone saying, hundred, you are

2487
04:21:19,913 --> 04:21:21,882
Setting our house on fire.

2488
04:21:21,882 --> 04:21:23,950
Let me grab the money from the

2489
04:21:23,950 --> 04:21:26,586
Safe s you can burn it too.

2490
04:21:26,586 --> 04:21:29,156
That’s dramatic, but it’s

2491
04:21:29,156 --> 04:21:29,990
Realistic.

2492
04:21:29,990 --> 04:21:33,860
I also live on pruitt ranch

2493
04:21:33,860 --> 04:21:36,029
Where those shrubs have never

2494
04:21:36,029 --> 04:21:36,930
Been replanted.

2495
04:21:36,930 --> 04:21:38,665
The sound walls are leaning

2496
04:21:38,665 --> 04:21:39,866
Over, going to go.

2497
04:21:39,866 --> 04:21:44,137
Those are people’s backyard

2498
04:21:44,137 --> 04:21:46,006
Walls.

2499
04:21:46,006 --> 04:21:47,874
So, I real think we need to

2500
04:21:47,874 --> 04:21:49,476
Understand what this waterpark

2501
04:21:49,476 --> 04:21:51,678
Is doing to our budget, more

2502
04:21:51,678 --> 04:21:53,780
Importantly why are we

2503
04:21:53,780 --> 04:21:55,081
Scheduling capital improvement

2504
04:21:55,081 --> 04:21:57,818
Projects at a time the

2505
04:21:57,818 --> 04:21:59,052
Waterparks should be open.

2506
04:21:59,052 --> 04:22:00,587
I don’t think they’ll finish in

2507
04:22:00,587 --> 04:22:01,555
June.

2508
04:22:01,555 --> 04:22:06,927
We always have amendments to

2509
04:22:06,927 --> 04:22:07,794
Projects.

2510
04:22:07,794 --> 04:22:08,728
[beep ]

2511
04:22:08,728 --> 04:22:10,864
>> mayor ron bernal: seeing no

2512
04:22:10,864 --> 04:22:13,066
Other public comments, questions

2513
04:22:13,066 --> 04:22:15,669
Or comments from council?

2514
04:22:15,669 --> 04:22:17,771
Can I get a motion?

2515
04:22:17,771 --> 04:22:19,105
>> councilmember torres-walker:

2516
04:22:19,105 --> 04:22:21,608
I want to say andrew has been

2517
04:22:21,608 --> 04:22:24,511
\hi want to say andrew has been

2518
04:22:21,608 --> 04:22:24,511
Coming to this council saying we

2519
04:22:24,511 --> 04:22:27,314
Are not made any money off of

2520
04:22:27,314 --> 04:22:30,250
The waterpark, and I have always

2521
04:22:30,250 --> 04:22:32,552
Heard that the waterpark was not

2522
04:22:32,552 --> 04:22:34,754
Meant for us to make money,

2523
04:22:34,754 --> 04:22:36,056
Similar to the golf course.

2524
04:22:36,056 --> 04:22:39,326
It was for residents who wanted

2525
04:22:39,326 --> 04:22:41,628
To golf and residents who wanted

2526
04:22:41,628 --> 04:22:43,930
To swim and have those great

2527
04:22:43,930 --> 04:22:45,699
Experiences and the intent was

2528
04:22:45,699 --> 04:22:49,836
Not revenue, and I just was

2529
04:22:49,836 --> 04:22:51,838
Like -- okay, I guess, you know,

2530
04:22:51,838 --> 04:22:54,708
If that’s what people want, but

2531
04:22:54,708 --> 04:22:57,377
We are kind of at a point where

2532
04:22:57,377 --> 04:22:59,346
It’s not -- it’s about a health

2533
04:22:59,346 --> 04:23:03,183
And safety risk at this point

2534
04:23:03,183 --> 04:23:05,252
Because if we don’t resurface

2535
04:23:05,252 --> 04:23:08,555
The pools, if we don’t fix the

2536
04:23:08,555 --> 04:23:10,957
Slides, if we don’t repair the

2537
04:23:10,957 --> 04:23:13,794
Gates, like if we don’t do any

2538
04:23:13,794 --> 04:23:16,530
Repairs or capital improvements,

2539
04:23:16,530 --> 04:23:18,832
The park in itself structurally

2540
04:23:18,832 --> 04:23:20,801
Is going to continue to decline,

2541
04:23:20,801 --> 04:23:23,036
And then it’s going to be an

2542
04:23:23,036 --> 04:23:26,506
Asset that’s extremely

2543
04:23:26,506 --> 04:23:29,776
Depreciated, and then what is

2544
04:23:29,776 --> 04:23:33,413
The city gone do with it?

2545
04:23:33,413 --> 04:23:37,150
There has always been a

2546
04:23:37,150 --> 04:23:38,151
Conversation around -- that I

2547
04:23:38,151 --> 04:23:40,420
Have had with andrew and other

2548
04:23:40,420 --> 04:23:42,289
Folks is like, I don’t know if

2549
04:23:42,289 --> 04:23:44,591
The city sells it, has somebody

2550
04:23:44,591 --> 04:23:46,560
Else manage it or what happens,

2551
04:23:46,560 --> 04:23:48,762
But it’s clear that the

2552
04:23:48,762 --> 04:23:50,263
Waterpark hasn’t made the city

2553
04:23:50,263 --> 04:23:51,698
Very much revenue.

2554
04:23:51,698 --> 04:23:54,534
It’s also clear it’s a place

2555
04:23:54,534 --> 04:23:56,303
People want to go and have exist

2556
04:23:56,303 --> 04:23:57,838
In the community.

2557
04:23:57,838 --> 04:24:02,209
We can’t let it decline

2558
04:24:02,209 --> 04:24:02,642
Structurally.

2559
04:24:02,642 --> 04:24:05,045
We have people complaining

2560
04:24:05,045 --> 04:24:07,447
Already about blight everyday.

2561
04:24:07,447 --> 04:24:10,650
The vote has to be made because

2562
04:24:10,650 --> 04:24:13,253
We can’t -- you know, I would

2563
04:24:13,253 --> 04:24:15,755
Rather not have the latter.

2564
04:24:15,755 --> 04:24:18,525
I think like we can go backwards

2565
04:24:18,525 --> 04:24:20,293
All we want and talk about

2566
04:24:20,293 --> 04:24:21,361
Mismanagement because there are

2567
04:24:21,361 --> 04:24:22,896
People that have been here

2568
04:24:22,896 --> 04:24:25,198
Longer than me, but I think the

2569
04:24:25,198 --> 04:24:27,601
Only way is like forward, so

2570
04:24:27,601 --> 04:24:29,803
What are some of the ideas we

2571
04:24:29,803 --> 04:24:32,205
Can talk about as a community,

2572
04:24:32,205 --> 04:24:34,941
What a waterpark can be

2573
04:24:34,941 --> 04:24:36,810
Preserved, the city can stop

2574
04:24:36,810 --> 04:24:39,012
Back filling a black hole and

2575
04:24:39,012 --> 04:24:44,050
Not making revenue but people

2576
04:24:44,050 --> 04:24:45,252
Can have access to it.

2577
04:24:45,252 --> 04:24:47,554
I would like to hear the

2578
04:24:47,554 --> 04:24:48,889
Conversations at the level of

2579
04:24:48,889 --> 04:24:52,159
This council, but I would keep

2580
04:24:52,159 --> 04:24:54,361
Supporting the improvements

2581
04:24:54,361 --> 04:24:55,862
Because I would hate for

2582
04:24:55,862 --> 04:24:58,598
Somebody to get harmed at the

2583
04:24:58,598 --> 04:24:59,266
Park.

2584
04:24:59,266 --> 04:25:01,468
This city has had enough

2585
04:25:01,468 --> 04:25:02,435
Litigation already.

2586
04:25:02,435 --> 04:25:05,071
We have almost lost our

2587
04:25:05,071 --> 04:25:05,672
Insurance.

2588
04:25:05,672 --> 04:25:09,242
I mean, slip and falls, you name

2589
04:25:09,242 --> 04:25:11,912
It.

2590
04:25:11,912 --> 04:25:13,113
So, I don’t know what the

2591
04:25:13,113 --> 04:25:17,250
Answers are, city manager, but

2592
04:25:17,250 --> 04:25:21,354
Sha had is amazing, an amazing

2593
04:25:21,354 --> 04:25:26,626
Director and leader, and now

2594
04:25:26,626 --> 04:25:30,330
Over park and rec and I think

2595
04:25:30,330 --> 04:25:33,300
Has ideas of improvements at the

2596
04:25:33,300 --> 04:25:34,201
Waterpark.

2597
04:25:34,201 --> 04:25:36,570
And I would also take some of

2598
04:25:36,570 --> 04:25:37,904
Melissa’s suggestions -- not

2599
04:25:37,904 --> 04:25:40,106
That I normally do, but tonight

2600
04:25:40,106 --> 04:25:43,510
She has some great ones.

We were formed july 1977,

2691
04:29:37,410 --> 04:29:39,179
Antioch is a founding member of

2692
04:29:39,179 --> 04:29:41,381

2694
04:29:44,651 --> 04:29:46,286
Staff report of founding

2695
04:29:46,286 --> 04:29:46,987
Members.

2696
04:29:46,987 --> 04:29:49,890
The pool was set for general

2697
04:29:49,890 --> 04:29:53,627
Liability worker compensation.

2698
04:29:53,627 --> 04:29:55,562
General liability was the first

2699
04:29:55,562 --> 04:29:57,330
Program, the second program

2700
04:29:57,330 --> 04:30:00,167
Worker compensation, we added

2701
04:30:00,167 --> 04:30:04,538
Property, vehicle, employment

2702
04:30:04,538 --> 04:30:06,406
Practices, risk control,

2703
04:30:06,406 --> 04:30:08,708
Ancillary benefits, wellness

2704
04:30:08,708 --> 04:30:09,810
Programs and more.

2705
04:30:09,810 --> 04:30:13,313
We have 21 members primarily in

2706
04:30:13,313 --> 04:30:15,649
The east bay in contra costa.

2707
04:30:15,649 --> 04:30:18,051
That’s where we started.

2708
04:30:18,051 --> 04:30:20,921
Mpa is one of the last pool in

2709
04:30:20,921 --> 04:30:24,858
California in which we

2710
04:30:24,858 --> 04:30:26,660
Self-administer claims for

2711
04:30:26,660 --> 04:30:28,495
Worker compensation and

2712
04:30:28,495 --> 04:30:29,329
Liability.

2713
04:30:29,329 --> 04:30:30,764
Many pools staff that out.

2714
04:30:30,764 --> 04:30:31,431
We do not.

2715
04:30:31,431 --> 04:30:33,500
We have a full staff in house.

2716
04:30:33,500 --> 04:30:36,102
The beauty of that, the board

2717
04:30:36,102 --> 04:30:40,073
And members have more

2718
04:30:40,073 --> 04:30:41,608
Interaction with claims

2719
04:30:41,608 --> 04:30:42,142
Adjustors.

2720
04:30:42,142 --> 04:30:43,710
We are able to work more

2721
04:30:43,710 --> 04:30:43,944
Closely.

2722
04:30:43,944 --> 04:30:45,879
We are the only pool in

2723
04:30:45,879 --> 04:30:48,281
California that provides a

2724
04:30:48,281 --> 04:30:49,683
Wellness program which the city

2725
04:30:49,683 --> 04:30:51,785
Of antioch participates in.

2726
04:30:51,785 --> 04:30:54,421
The pool is -- what a pool is, a

2727
04:30:54,421 --> 04:30:57,524
Pool is where the members come

2728
04:30:57,524 --> 04:31:00,026
Together for municipality,

2729
04:31:00,026 --> 04:31:02,529
Government entities, many pools

2730
04:31:02,529 --> 04:31:03,296
Throughout california.

2731
04:31:03,296 --> 04:31:06,133
There are about 1800 pools in

2732
04:31:06,133 --> 04:31:07,467
California as you see in the

2733
04:31:07,467 --> 04:31:08,235
Staff report.

2734
04:31:08,235 --> 04:31:09,736
We mentioned that.

2735
04:31:09,736 --> 04:31:12,139
Funds are joined together.

2736
04:31:12,139 --> 04:31:15,142
Those funds are set aside for

2737
04:31:15,142 --> 04:31:17,110
The payment, for the

2738
04:31:17,110 --> 04:31:18,545
Administration and payment of

2739
04:31:18,545 --> 04:31:19,146
Claims.

2740
04:31:19,146 --> 04:31:21,915
We are considered a self ensured

2741
04:31:21,915 --> 04:31:23,683
Entity in which we are governed

2742
04:31:23,683 --> 04:31:26,419
By a board.

2743
04:31:26,419 --> 04:31:29,689
That board -- reviews and

2744
04:31:29,689 --> 04:31:31,558
Defines the memorandum of

2745
04:31:31,558 --> 04:31:33,660
Coverage in how coverage is

2746
04:31:33,660 --> 04:31:35,295
Going to be provided.

2747
04:31:35,295 --> 04:31:37,697
The exclusion is worker

2748
04:31:37,697 --> 04:31:38,999
Compensation, statutory, the law

2749
04:31:38,999 --> 04:31:41,835
Says we do what we do.

2750
04:31:41,835 --> 04:31:43,270
There is not a difference in

2751
04:31:43,270 --> 04:31:43,737
That.

2752
04:31:43,737 --> 04:31:45,906
Some of the things -- speaking

2753
04:31:45,906 --> 04:31:48,809
Of our governments, we are 21

2754
04:31:48,809 --> 04:31:50,510
Members, every member has a

2755
04:31:50,510 --> 04:31:54,181
Primary and ultimate board

2756
04:31:54,181 --> 04:31:55,215
Member designated by the city

2757
04:31:55,215 --> 04:31:55,515
Council.

2758
04:31:55,515 --> 04:31:58,452
We have an executive committee

2759
04:31:58,452 --> 04:32:00,987
Which is a seven member

2760
04:32:00,987 --> 04:32:03,089

Treasurer and members at large.

2763
04:32:06,293 --> 04:32:10,230
The executive committee reviews

2764
04:32:10,230 --> 04:32:12,199
Claims and considers settlements

2765
04:32:12,199 --> 04:32:14,367
For the claims within our

2766
04:32:14,367 --> 04:32:15,702
Coverage which we’ll talk about

2767
04:32:15,702 --> 04:32:15,936
Soon.

2768
04:32:15,936 --> 04:32:18,438
We have another committee, the

2769
04:32:18,438 --> 04:32:20,273
Coverage and governance

2770
04:32:20,273 --> 04:32:22,042
Committee, the committee that

2771
04:32:22,042 --> 04:32:23,910
Reviewed the jpa agreement you

2772
04:32:23,910 --> 04:32:25,545
Are looking at today.

2773
04:32:25,545 --> 04:32:27,280
It’s outlined in the staff

2774
04:32:27,280 --> 04:32:28,315
Report.

2775
04:32:28,315 --> 04:32:30,250
The various reviews it went

2776
04:32:30,250 --> 04:32:32,119
Through, it is a very

2777
04:32:32,119 --> 04:32:32,886
Comprehensive document.

2778
04:32:32,886 --> 04:32:36,857
It’s required that, that

2779
04:32:36,857 --> 04:32:38,391
Document is reviewed and

2780
04:32:38,391 --> 04:32:40,393
Considered by the members of the

2781
04:32:40,393 --> 04:32:40,961
Pool.

2782
04:32:40,961 --> 04:32:42,596
Those documents in addition to

2783
04:32:42,596 --> 04:32:45,265
The jpa agreement are the bylaws

2784
04:32:45,265 --> 04:32:59,012
And remember land remember

2785
04:32:59,012 --> 04:33:01,081
Memorandum program.

2786
04:33:01,081 --> 04:33:05,252
We are also self insured for

2787
04:33:05,252 --> 04:33:07,220
Short-term disability which many

2788
04:33:07,220 --> 04:33:08,522
Members also participate in.

2789
04:33:08,522 --> 04:33:10,724
Some of our services -- we have

2790
04:33:10,724 --> 04:33:12,692
Many services, 18 programs.

2791
04:33:12,692 --> 04:33:16,062
As I said, worker compensation

2792
04:33:16,062 --> 04:33:17,931
And general liability are

2793
04:33:17,931 --> 04:33:19,699
Primary programs, hallmark

2794
04:33:19,699 --> 04:33:22,102
Programs and vehicle program

2795
04:33:22,102 --> 04:33:23,537
Provides coverage for city

2796
04:33:23,537 --> 04:33:25,906
Vehicles.

2797
04:33:25,906 --> 04:33:27,674
We also, because we are a pool,

2798
04:33:27,674 --> 04:33:33,413
We have access to brokerage

2799
04:33:33,413 --> 04:33:35,482
Coverages, and so we receive the

2800
04:33:35,482 --> 04:33:38,318
Coverages at a discounted rate,

2801
04:33:38,318 --> 04:33:40,520
Economy of scale based on our

2802
04:33:40,520 --> 04:33:44,357
Little family of members.

2803
04:33:44,357 --> 04:33:46,560
Those brokers review exposure

2804
04:33:46,560 --> 04:33:48,295
And liability and work hard to

2805
04:33:48,295 --> 04:33:49,963
Bring the costs down for you

2806
04:33:49,963 --> 04:33:50,197
All.

2807
04:33:50,197 --> 04:33:52,265
We have the wellness program

2808
04:33:52,265 --> 04:33:54,334

04:33:54,334 --> 04:33:56,203
Comprehensive, and we provide

2810
04:33:56,203 --> 04:33:58,839
Safety and risk training

2811
04:33:58,839 --> 04:34:00,740
Support.

2812
04:34:00,740 --> 04:34:03,276
Individualized by cities or we

2813
04:34:03,276 --> 04:34:05,645
Have a number of annual

2814
04:34:05,645 --> 04:34:07,514
Regularly occurring trainings

Available to all of our

2816
04:34:08,815 --> 04:34:09,049

04:34:09,049 --> 04:34:12,752
We have a very, very proactive

2818
04:34:12,752 --> 04:34:14,821
Police risk management committee

2819

Municipality within the pool, 18

2822
04:34:21,461 --> 04:34:22,829
Cities have police that they

2823
04:34:22,829 --> 04:34:23,930
Participate in.

2824
04:34:23,930 --> 04:34:28,301
It’s a committee of officers who

2825
04:34:28,301 --> 04:34:30,303
Let us know what they need, what

2826
04:34:30,303 --> 04:34:32,706
Kind of trainings they want,

2827
04:34:32,706 --> 04:34:34,141
What kind of information would

2828
04:34:34,141 --> 04:34:36,209
They like us to do research on

2829
04:34:36,209 --> 04:34:37,511
And provide them.

2830
04:34:37,511 --> 04:34:39,045
It’s an opportunity for them to

2831
04:34:39,045 --> 04:34:40,280
Come together and share

2832
04:34:40,280 --> 04:34:41,148
Information.

2833
04:34:41,148 --> 04:34:42,749
That committee meets three times

2834
04:34:42,749 --> 04:34:43,150
A year.

2835
04:34:43,150 --> 04:34:45,652
We have a public works and

2836
04:34:45,652 --> 04:34:47,821
Safety committee that’s active.

2837
04:34:47,821 --> 04:34:49,890
Members of every city come, and

2838
04:34:49,890 --> 04:34:52,526
It’s for those employees in

2839
04:34:52,526 --> 04:34:55,061
Those specific departments.

2840
04:34:55,061 --> 04:34:55,829
Same format.

2841
04:34:55,829 --> 04:34:57,998
They tell us what they need.

2842
04:34:57,998 --> 04:35:00,300
We provide that for them.

2843
04:35:00,300 --> 04:35:02,602
It’s the extra training

2844
04:35:02,602 --> 04:35:03,904
Customized for what the cities

2845
04:35:03,904 --> 04:35:05,005
Are asking from us.

2846
04:35:05,005 --> 04:35:08,975
We have an ergonomics program,

2847
04:35:08,975 --> 04:35:12,546
Which provides ergonomics

2848
04:35:12,546 --> 04:35:14,948
Programs for every employee and

2849
04:35:14,948 --> 04:35:16,016
Members.

2850
04:35:16,016 --> 04:35:17,617
Onsite trainings if they are

2851
04:35:17,617 --> 04:35:19,152
Required and you are able to

2852
04:35:19,152 --> 04:35:22,289
Access through us the employer’s

2853
04:35:22,289 --> 04:35:22,956
Liability pool.

2854
04:35:22,956 --> 04:35:25,158
It’s a pool of pools in which

2855
04:35:25,158 --> 04:35:27,561
You receive employment liability

2856
04:35:27,561 --> 04:35:29,429
Coverage which is invaluable to

2857
04:35:29,429 --> 04:35:30,864
Our members.

2858
04:35:30,864 --> 04:35:33,800
It also comes at a reduced cost

2859
04:35:33,800 --> 04:35:35,869
Due to economies of scale and

2860
04:35:35,869 --> 04:35:40,040
Sharing in the cost of pooling.

2861
04:35:40,040 --> 04:35:43,143
So, our layers of coverage,

2862
04:35:43,143 --> 04:35:43,977
Worker compensation program,

2863
04:35:43,977 --> 04:35:46,713
What we provide for you is zero

2864
04:35:46,713 --> 04:35:49,416
Dollar coverage up to $500,000

2865
04:35:49,416 --> 04:35:51,551
For your worker compensation

2866
04:35:51,551 --> 04:35:52,586
Claims.

2867
04:35:52,586 --> 04:35:54,821
We access another pool which is

2868
04:35:54,821 --> 04:35:58,758
Prism in which we have coverage

2869
04:35:58,758 --> 04:36:00,060
From $500,000 up to the

2870
04:36:00,060 --> 04:36:02,395
Statutory limits.

2871
04:36:02,395 --> 04:36:05,098
The general liability program,

2872
04:36:05,098 --> 04:36:06,967
Each individual member has a

2873
04:36:06,967 --> 04:36:10,437
Self insured retention ranging

2874
04:36:10,437 --> 04:36:13,640
From 500 to $100,000 and we

2875
04:36:13,640 --> 04:36:14,741
Provide up to a million dollars

2876
04:36:14,741 --> 04:36:16,610
In the program.

2877
04:36:16,610 --> 04:36:18,445
We have excess coverage through

2878
04:36:18,445 --> 04:36:22,249
Carpal karma, in-house

2879
04:36:22,249 --> 04:36:22,549
$9 million.

2880
04:36:22,549 --> 04:36:24,217
Combined with the two programs,

2881
04:36:24,217 --> 04:36:28,288
We are technically self ensured

2882
04:36:28,288 --> 04:36:28,889
For $10 million.

2883
04:36:28,889 --> 04:36:32,259
Beyond that, excess coverage

2884
04:36:32,259 --> 04:36:36,463
Through excess insurance and we

2885
04:36:36,463 --> 04:36:37,931
Have $34.5 million in coverage

2886
04:36:37,931 --> 04:36:40,567
For general liability.

2887
04:36:40,567 --> 04:36:42,869
What do we do with the funds

2888
04:36:42,869 --> 04:36:44,838
Sent to us?

2889
04:36:44,838 --> 04:36:47,140
Annually we charge our members a

2890
04:36:47,140 --> 04:36:50,110
Premium, seen in your budget,

2891
04:36:50,110 --> 04:36:52,612
And that’s based on a number of

2892
04:36:52,612 --> 04:36:55,315
Factors, a share of costs shared

2893
04:36:55,315 --> 04:36:56,983
Amongst the members in the

2894
04:36:56,983 --> 04:36:58,118
Program.

2895
04:36:58,118 --> 04:37:01,788
We have also been incredibly

2896
04:37:01,788 --> 04:37:03,089
Conservative with the money you

2897
04:37:03,089 --> 04:37:04,191
Provide.

2898
04:37:04,191 --> 04:37:07,594
It is vested. Invested.

2899
04:37:07,594 --> 04:37:09,896
It’s your money, money for

2900
04:37:09,896 --> 04:37:10,363
Claims.

2901
04:37:10,363 --> 04:37:14,201
We are over 90% funded today.

2902
04:37:14,201 --> 04:37:17,704
In the beginning, we were

2903
04:37:17,704 --> 04:37:20,640
Funded, barely above 75% funds.

2904
04:37:20,640 --> 04:37:23,477
We are now above 90% funded.

2905
04:37:23,477 --> 04:37:24,911
Why is that important?

2906
04:37:24,911 --> 04:37:26,680
It means we have almost all of

2907
04:37:26,680 --> 04:37:28,982
The money in the bank to pay for

2908
04:37:28,982 --> 04:37:31,084
All anticipated claims for all

2909
04:37:31,084 --> 04:37:31,785
Members.

2910
04:37:31,785 --> 04:37:33,353
It’s a very good place to be.

2911
04:37:33,353 --> 04:37:35,122
Same with the general liability

2912
04:37:35,122 --> 04:37:35,689
Program.

2913
04:37:35,689 --> 04:37:37,958
You can see in 2017 we were

2914
04:37:37,958 --> 04:37:39,826
Funded at 80%.

2915
04:37:39,826 --> 04:37:42,662
Now we are at 90% and in truth,

2916
04:37:42,662 --> 04:37:44,097
Well above that.

2917
04:37:44,097 --> 04:37:47,467
This year in july, this fiscal

2918
04:37:47,467 --> 04:37:49,669
Year, beginning of this fiscal

2919
04:37:49,669 --> 04:37:56,009
Year, july 2025, we developed a

2920
04:37:56,009 --> 04:37:59,513
Captive, an alternative

2921
04:37:59,513 --> 04:38:00,413
Investment opportunity.

2922
04:38:00,413 --> 04:38:03,150
It’s purely investment -- an

2923
04:38:03,150 --> 04:38:07,287
Investment entity that allows us

2924
04:38:07,287 --> 04:38:09,823
To take larger risks at how we

2925
04:38:09,823 --> 04:38:11,792
Invest our money so that money

2926
04:38:11,792 --> 04:38:14,227
Is working better for our

2927
04:38:14,227 --> 04:38:16,930
Members to offset the escalating

2928
04:38:16,930 --> 04:38:18,698
Costs of coverage in general.

2929
04:38:18,698 --> 04:38:22,335
It is -- we are almost at a year

2930
04:38:22,335 --> 04:38:25,038
Mark, and it’s proven to do well

2931
04:38:25,038 --> 04:38:26,339
Right now.

2932
04:38:26,339 --> 04:38:28,875
These are all the programs that

2933
04:38:28,875 --> 04:38:30,410
Mpa provide to our members.

2934
04:38:30,410 --> 04:38:32,913
If you see the xs, these are the

2935
04:38:32,913 --> 04:38:35,982
Programs that antioch directly

2936
04:38:35,982 --> 04:38:36,883
Participates in that we have

2937
04:38:36,883 --> 04:38:37,617
Here today.

2938
04:38:37,617 --> 04:38:39,152
I’m happy to answer any

2939
04:38:39,152 --> 04:38:41,254
Questions if I can.

2940
04:38:41,254 --> 04:38:41,988
Mayor ron bernal all right,

2941
04:38:41,988 --> 04:38:42,656
Thank you.

2942
04:38:42,656 --> 04:38:44,191
for the presentation.

2943
04:38:44,191 --> 04:38:46,393
Do you want to ask questions

2944
04:38:46,393 --> 04:38:49,763
Before public comment?

2945
04:38:49,763 --> 04:38:51,665
Is there public comment on this

2946
04:38:51,665 --> 04:38:52,132
Item?

2947
04:38:52,132 --> 04:38:54,501
>> clerk: no public comment

2948
04:38:54,501 --> 04:38:54,868
Cards.

2949
04:38:54,868 --> 04:38:58,238
>> let me ask, why is it prudent

2950
04:38:58,238 --> 04:39:02,275
For us to be a member?

2951
04:39:02,275 --> 04:39:03,109
Mba?

2952
04:39:03,109 --> 04:39:10,784
Do you compare your program to

2953
04:39:10,784 --> 04:39:12,152
Other programs, commercial?

2954
04:39:12,152 --> 04:39:17,457
>> yes, to purchase private

2955
04:39:17,457 --> 04:39:19,426
Insurance, for example, would

2956
04:39:19,426 --> 04:39:24,264
Not be as beneficial in our

2957
04:39:24,264 --> 04:39:27,734
Opinion in the reason you pool

2958
04:39:27,734 --> 04:39:29,503
Your money is to share in the

2959
04:39:29,503 --> 04:39:31,138
Cost of coverage.

2960
04:39:31,138 --> 04:39:36,409
You do not pay full fair fare

2961
04:39:36,409 --> 04:39:37,811
For all claims.

2962
04:39:37,811 --> 04:39:40,347
All members share in the cost.

2963
04:39:40,347 --> 04:39:42,082
There is a cap on how much you

2964
04:39:42,082 --> 04:39:43,717
Pay for a claim.

2965
04:39:43,717 --> 04:39:46,453
Every dollar over the cap is

2966
04:39:46,453 --> 04:39:49,089
Spread amongst the members to

2967
04:39:49,089 --> 04:39:50,190
Share in the cost.

2968
04:39:50,190 --> 04:39:52,592
That’s the largest benefit.

2969
04:39:52,592 --> 04:39:55,428
The subsequent benefit the board

2970
04:39:55,428 --> 04:39:57,330
Writes the memorandums of

2971
04:39:57,330 --> 04:39:58,131
Coverage.

2972
04:39:58,131 --> 04:39:59,633
The board decides how coverage

2973
04:39:59,633 --> 04:40:01,468
Is going to be applied.

2974
04:40:01,468 --> 04:40:03,670
That is the governing document.

2975
04:40:03,670 --> 04:40:05,739
Of course, that’s updated every

2976
04:40:05,739 --> 04:40:06,373
Year.

2977
04:40:06,373 --> 04:40:09,676
It is updated and changes are

2978
04:40:09,676 --> 04:40:13,780
Made based on what -- based on

2979
04:40:13,780 --> 04:40:15,182
Laws, needs of the membership

2980
04:40:15,182 --> 04:40:17,918
And how the coverage is.

2981
04:40:17,918 --> 04:40:19,352
In private insurance, you

2982
04:40:19,352 --> 04:40:20,754
Wouldn’t have that flexibility

2983
04:40:20,754 --> 04:40:21,421
At all.

2984
04:40:21,421 --> 04:40:22,956
You wouldn’t have the ability to

2985
04:40:22,956 --> 04:40:24,591
Change the governing documents.

2986
04:40:24,591 --> 04:40:26,359
They are what they are.

2987
04:40:26,359 --> 04:40:28,662
Also, the third beneficial

2988
04:40:28,662 --> 04:40:31,364
Component is because we do have

2989
04:40:31,364 --> 04:40:32,699
Claims administration in house.

2990
04:40:32,699 --> 04:40:35,535
We have more intimate

2991
04:40:35,535 --> 04:40:37,737
Relationship with our claims

2992
04:40:37,737 --> 04:40:38,305
Administrators.

2993
04:40:38,305 --> 04:40:39,506
Our cities do.

2994
04:40:39,506 --> 04:40:41,241
They work closely with you on

2995
04:40:41,241 --> 04:40:42,742
The claims administration.

2996
04:40:42,742 --> 04:40:45,312
>> I’m certainly not an

2997
04:40:45,312 --> 04:40:46,847
Attorney, but the change, it

2998
04:40:46,847 --> 04:40:48,248
Looks like you are recommending

2999
04:40:48,248 --> 04:40:50,784
Are minor and not sub

3000
04:40:50,784 --> 04:40:51,518
Substantive.

3001
04:40:51,518 --> 04:40:53,720
>> this is true.

3002
04:40:53,720 --> 04:40:55,255
>> the city attorney has

3003
04:40:55,255 --> 04:40:56,490
Reviewed your opinion?

3004
04:40:56,490 --> 04:40:58,658
>> that’s correct, mayor

3005
04:40:58,658 --> 04:40:59,226
Pro-tem.

3006
04:40:59,226 --> 04:41:01,928
All of them are just clarifying

3007
04:41:01,928 --> 04:41:07,968
Provisions aligning changing

3008
04:41:07,968 --> 04:41:08,802
Terminology, definitions,

3009
04:41:08,802 --> 04:41:11,238
Current law and I think there is

3010
04:41:11,238 --> 04:41:13,874
One other category, you saw this

3011
04:41:13,874 --> 04:41:16,610
In the staff report, refining

3012
04:41:16,610 --> 04:41:17,377
Procedural elements.

3013
04:41:17,377 --> 04:41:20,213
I looked at those four points

3014
04:41:20,213 --> 04:41:22,182
And the agreement, and it’s

3015
04:41:22,182 --> 04:41:22,749
Reflective.

3016
04:41:22,749 --> 04:41:25,352
>> one last comment, in the last

3017
04:41:25,352 --> 04:41:26,887
Several years we have dealt with

3018
04:41:26,887 --> 04:41:28,955
A lot of litigation.

3019
04:41:28,955 --> 04:41:31,958
We are paying out a lot of

3020
04:41:31,958 --> 04:41:33,593
Settlements, and frankly, I

3021
04:41:33,593 --> 04:41:35,695
Appreciate the fact that you

3022
04:41:35,695 --> 04:41:37,764
Exist, and you worked with us to

3023
04:41:37,764 --> 04:41:41,034
Get us through all of these

3024
04:41:41,034 --> 04:41:42,903
Issues, so I wanted to publicly

3025
04:41:42,903 --> 04:41:43,303
Thank you.

3026
04:41:43,303 --> 04:41:44,538
>> thank you.

3027
04:41:44,538 --> 04:41:47,174
That is also another benefit of

3028
04:41:47,174 --> 04:41:48,809
The pool.

3029
04:41:48,809 --> 04:41:51,011
We are involved with every

3030
04:41:51,011 --> 04:41:52,746
Member and do what we can to

3031
04:41:52,746 --> 04:41:55,949
Help when the need is there,

3032
04:41:55,949 --> 04:41:56,249
Absolutely.

3033
04:41:56,249 --> 04:41:57,584
>> mayor ron bernal: I have

3034
04:41:57,584 --> 04:41:58,118
One question.

3035
04:41:58,118 --> 04:41:59,753
In the draft of the new

3036
04:41:59,753 --> 04:42:00,821
Agreement, there is a statement

3037
04:42:00,821 --> 04:42:03,990
In here that says such as the

3038
04:42:03,990 --> 04:42:07,694
City of pleasant hill --

3039
04:42:07,694 --> 04:42:10,096
>> let me grab my notes.

3040
04:42:10,096 --> 04:42:12,132
>> mayor ron bernal: I want it

3041
04:42:12,132 --> 04:42:13,900
To say such as the city of

3042
04:42:13,900 --> 04:42:16,636
Antioch instead.

3043
04:42:16,636 --> 04:42:19,339
I don’t know why -- it seemed

3044
04:42:19,339 --> 04:42:20,707
Odd it was called out in the

3045
04:42:20,707 --> 04:42:24,077
Document as one of the member

3046
04:42:24,077 --> 04:42:25,278
Agencies out of the 21.

3047
04:42:25,278 --> 04:42:29,216
>> it is a requirement of the --

3048
04:42:29,216 --> 04:42:31,184
Our -- of the code of the law

3049
04:42:31,184 --> 04:42:34,287
That allows for pooling entities

3050
04:42:34,287 --> 04:42:38,859
To state that we -- we don’t

3051
04:42:38,859 --> 04:42:40,727
Supersede or override the laws

3052
04:42:40,727 --> 04:42:42,729
And requirements of the city and

3053
04:42:42,729 --> 04:42:44,965
Vice versa, so it’s a

3054
04:42:44,965 --> 04:42:46,833
Collaborative relationship.

3055
04:42:46,833 --> 04:42:49,703
The reason we chose the city of

3056
04:42:49,703 --> 04:42:51,104
Pleasant hill, they are a

3057
04:42:51,104 --> 04:42:52,005
Founding city.

3058
04:42:52,005 --> 04:42:53,974
We grew out of the city of

3059
04:42:53,974 --> 04:42:57,677
Pleasant hill, the original

3060
04:42:57,677 --> 04:42:58,779
Employees were pleasant hill

3061
04:42:58,779 --> 04:43:00,447
Employees.

3062
04:43:00,447 --> 04:43:02,816
Our original policies were

3063
04:43:02,816 --> 04:43:03,817
Pleasant hill policies.

3064
04:43:03,817 --> 04:43:05,552
We have some of the policies.

3065
04:43:05,552 --> 04:43:07,420
That is why the city was

3066
04:43:07,420 --> 04:43:08,421
Chosen.

3067
04:43:08,421 --> 04:43:09,623
Any city could have been

3068
04:43:09,623 --> 04:43:09,923
Chosen.

3069
04:43:09,923 --> 04:43:15,529
>> they were an honor honorary

3070
04:43:15,529 --> 04:43:16,062
City?

3071
04:43:16,062 --> 04:43:17,597
Then I won’t ask you to change

3072
04:43:17,597 --> 04:43:18,799
It to antioch.

3073
04:43:18,799 --> 04:43:20,567
Any other questions, council in

3074
04:43:20,567 --> 04:43:22,969
We asked for public comment.

3075
04:43:22,969 --> 04:43:24,571
Can I get a motion?

3076
04:43:24,571 --> 04:43:26,072
>> I move approval.

3077
04:43:26,072 --> 04:43:28,241

3197
05:00:22,923 --> 05:00:23,256

05:00:23,256 --> 05:00:25,992
I want to do that briefly in the

3199
05:00:25,992 --> 05:00:26,860
Staff report.

3200
05:00:26,860 --> 05:00:31,498
I gave background.

3201
05:00:31,498 --> 05:00:33,567
When it comes down to where we

3202
05:00:33,567 --> 05:00:35,435
Are in the process, as we speak,

3203
05:00:35,435 --> 05:00:38,371
We have an environmental

3204
05:00:38,371 --> 05:00:40,774
Consultant providing the work

3205
05:00:40,774 --> 05:00:42,642
Necessary for the city to

3206
05:00:42,642 --> 05:00:45,378
Release the 750,000 one time

3207
05:00:45,378 --> 05:00:48,115
Payment through h.u.d. And cdbg

3208
05:00:48,115 --> 05:00:48,815
Grants.

3209
05:00:48,815 --> 05:00:53,153
With that timeline occurring, we

3210
05:00:53,153 --> 05:00:55,088
Expect to be in the realm of

3211
05:00:55,088 --> 05:00:57,190
Coming to your council for award

3212
05:00:57,190 --> 05:00:59,359
Of the money, probably in the

3213
05:00:59,359 --> 05:01:02,529
Early summer, late spring.

3214
05:01:02,529 --> 05:01:04,297
The time that we have right now

3215
05:01:04,297 --> 05:01:11,838
From hcd is such that hcd staff

3216
05:01:11,838 --> 05:01:14,040
Has forwarded a recommendation

3217
05:01:14,040 --> 05:01:17,310
To their -- not governing body

3218
05:01:17,310 --> 05:01:20,180
But next review process,

3219
05:01:20,180 --> 05:01:22,149
Internal lone committee,

3220
05:01:22,149 --> 05:01:24,417
Tentatively scheduled this week

3221
05:01:24,417 --> 05:01:27,287
And within a week or so.

3222
05:01:27,287 --> 05:01:29,689
There are no guarantees that we

3223
05:01:29,689 --> 05:01:31,091
Hope to have a decision within

3224
05:01:31,091 --> 05:01:33,293
The next few weeks, within a

3225
05:01:33,293 --> 05:01:33,827
Month.

3226
05:01:33,827 --> 05:01:35,395
It’s a process we have been

3227
05:01:35,395 --> 05:01:36,930
Working on a lot with respect to

3228
05:01:36,930 --> 05:01:40,534
The timing of all of the piece,

3229
05:01:40,534 --> 05:01:42,736
And at this point, I’m happy to

3230
05:01:42,736 --> 05:01:43,603
Answer questions.

3231
05:01:43,603 --> 05:01:46,006
We need to talk about a modified

3232
05:01:46,006 --> 05:01:47,207
Timeline.

3233
05:01:47,207 --> 05:01:50,177
When the award is granted, the

3234
05:01:50,177 --> 05:01:51,912
Clock will start for when

3235
05:01:51,912 --> 05:01:53,346
Construction appears on the

3236
05:01:53,346 --> 05:01:55,549
Property, certainly after

3237
05:01:55,549 --> 05:01:55,982
Acquisition.

3238
05:01:55,982 --> 05:01:57,651
Happy to answer questions and

3239
05:01:57,651 --> 05:02:01,354
Then turn the time over.

3240
05:02:01,354 --> 05:02:04,090
>> mayor ron bernal: let’s

3241
05:02:04,090 --> 05:02:07,060
Hear from him first and then get

3242
05:02:07,060 --> 05:02:12,199
Public comment and open it to up

3243
05:02:12,199 --> 05:02:17,571
To council.

3244
05:02:17,571 --> 05:02:19,973
>> thank you, council and

3245
05:02:19,973 --> 05:02:21,041
Community forgiving the

3246
05:02:21,041 --> 05:02:22,943
Opportunity to provide an update

3247
05:02:22,943 --> 05:02:24,077
On home key plus.

3248
05:02:24,077 --> 05:02:27,414
>> can you talk into the mic,

3249
05:02:27,414 --> 05:02:27,848
Please?

3250
05:02:27,848 --> 05:02:29,082
Pull it down.

3251
05:02:29,082 --> 05:02:31,151
>> I should have realized that.

3252
05:02:31,151 --> 05:02:32,552
I hope everyone can hear.

3253
05:02:32,552 --> 05:02:34,321
Thanks for the opportunity.

3254
05:02:34,321 --> 05:02:43,663
We have been work csh for a year

3255
05:02:43,663 --> 05:02:44,698
Working tirelessly to make sure

3256
05:02:44,698 --> 05:02:48,668
The documents were submitted on

3257
05:02:48,668 --> 05:02:50,971
Time, may 30th, the last date we

3258
05:02:50,971 --> 05:02:52,606
Submitted the application,

3259
05:02:52,606 --> 05:02:54,674
Received the letter and number.

3260
05:02:54,674 --> 05:02:56,776
Then we have been providing the

3261
05:02:56,776 --> 05:02:58,945

3262
05:02:58,945 --> 05:03:00,914
Document updates and everything,

05:03:00,914 --> 05:03:02,682
And we have been informed as

3264
05:03:02,682 --> 05:03:05,118
David was mentioning by city

3265
05:03:05,118 --> 05:03:06,586
Staff, city staff manager, that

3266
05:03:06,586 --> 05:03:08,355
They have all of the documents

3267
05:03:08,355 --> 05:03:09,456
Which are needed.

3268
05:03:09,456 --> 05:03:10,757
They have recommended our

3269
05:03:10,757 --> 05:03:13,827
Project for the award.

3270
05:03:13,827 --> 05:03:15,962
They are plan to meet every

3271
05:03:15,962 --> 05:03:19,666
Second thursday of the month t,

3272
05:03:19,666 --> 05:03:22,269
Two days from now they’ll meet

3273
05:03:22,269 --> 05:03:25,138
And assess staff recommendation

3274
05:03:25,138 --> 05:03:27,507
And deidre told you friday that

3275
05:03:27,507 --> 05:03:29,609
We should hear within a few days

3276
05:03:29,609 --> 05:03:31,845
Or a week, and of course, they

3277
05:03:31,845 --> 05:03:34,748
Are saying the timeline

3278
05:03:34,748 --> 05:03:36,917
Continues depending on the city

3279
05:03:36,917 --> 05:03:37,350
Leadership.

3280
05:03:37,350 --> 05:03:38,785
We are hopeful because we

3281
05:03:38,785 --> 05:03:40,086
Provide all of the information

3282
05:03:40,086 --> 05:03:40,454
Needed.

3283
05:03:40,454 --> 05:03:43,156
I wanted to take a few moments,

3284
05:03:43,156 --> 05:03:45,358
Talk about what we have

3285
05:03:45,358 --> 05:03:47,327
Progressed on as well as our

3286
05:03:47,327 --> 05:03:49,296
Project as well as what we are

05:03:51,264 --> 05:03:53,667
About the overall timeline.

3289
05:03:53,667 --> 05:03:56,069
As I was mentioning, they have

3290
05:03:56,069 --> 05:03:57,003
Communicated.

3291
05:03:57,003 --> 05:03:59,773
We should hear in a week’s time

3292
05:03:59,773 --> 05:04:03,410
At latest, few more weeks from

3293
05:04:03,410 --> 05:04:05,912
Then, and special thanks for

3294
05:04:05,912 --> 05:04:07,981
City director scott, city staff

3295
05:04:07,981 --> 05:04:10,183
As well as my entire team for

3296
05:04:10,183 --> 05:04:12,052
Getting us to this milestone,

3297
05:04:12,052 --> 05:04:15,956
Amend of and of course, we are

3298
05:04:15,956 --> 05:04:17,724
Almost there to achieve and

3299
05:04:17,724 --> 05:04:26,166
Receive the much needed

3300
05:04:26,166 --> 05:04:29,336
$34.9 million, taxpayer dollars

3301
05:04:29,336 --> 05:04:31,438
Hopefully come for the city of

3302
05:04:31,438 --> 05:04:34,174
Antioch and we’ll have 85 low

3303
05:04:34,174 --> 05:04:38,211
Income housing built up by

3304
05:04:38,211 --> 05:04:42,182
Creating the hcd housing.

3305
05:04:42,182 --> 05:04:45,519
Also, a quick note sharing good

3306
05:04:45,519 --> 05:04:48,688
News, we received home key plus

3307
05:04:48,688 --> 05:04:49,790
Award last december.

3308
05:04:49,790 --> 05:04:53,827
Our process, following diligence

3309
05:04:53,827 --> 05:04:56,463
Is indicative of award by home

3310
05:04:56,463 --> 05:04:59,432
Key plus in addition to the home

3311
05:04:59,432 --> 05:05:02,969
Tree round tree in oak oakland

3312
05:05:02,969 --> 05:05:03,570
In full construction.

3313
05:05:03,570 --> 05:05:05,906
In terms of home key plus

3314
05:05:05,906 --> 05:05:09,109
Background and update, as you

3315
05:05:09,109 --> 05:05:14,014
Are aware, this came out in 2024

3316
05:05:14,014 --> 05:05:17,918
To allocate proposition 1 funds,

3317
05:05:17,918 --> 05:05:19,953
There to convert hotels or

3318
05:05:19,953 --> 05:05:22,389
Non-resresidential areas to

3319
05:05:22,389 --> 05:05:25,025
Convert them into housing for

3320
05:05:25,025 --> 05:05:26,226
Homeless or veterans.

3321
05:05:26,226 --> 05:05:29,062
Right now, the home key plus is

3322
05:05:29,062 --> 05:05:31,932
Under scribed.

3323
05:05:31,932 --> 05:05:35,635
There is at least a billion,

3324
05:05:35,635 --> 05:05:37,904
$2.1 billions allocated

3325
05:05:37,904 --> 05:05:38,572
$900 million so far.

3326
05:05:38,572 --> 05:05:42,642
As long as the project meets the

3327
05:05:42,642 --> 05:05:45,378
Threshold, provides the right

3328
05:05:45,378 --> 05:05:46,913
Documents, as long as they were

3329
05:05:46,913 --> 05:05:48,915
Submitted by may 30th, they’ll

3330
05:05:48,915 --> 05:05:50,317
Get the award.

3331
05:05:50,317 --> 05:05:52,285
That’s why staff has reviewed

3332
05:05:52,285 --> 05:05:53,820
Everything, based on the city

3333
05:05:53,820 --> 05:05:55,856
And us have provided them.

3334
05:05:55,856 --> 05:05:58,091
They have recommended for the

3335
05:05:58,091 --> 05:05:58,525
Award.

3336
05:05:58,525 --> 05:06:01,261
In terms of, I want to take a

3337
05:06:01,261 --> 05:06:04,231
Moment and discuss this, just a

3338
05:06:04,231 --> 05:06:04,965
Refresher.

3339
05:06:04,965 --> 05:06:07,601
I know council knows this and

3340
05:06:07,601 --> 05:06:09,636
City staff knows it and possibly

3341
05:06:09,636 --> 05:06:10,437
Community as well.

3342
05:06:10,437 --> 05:06:13,206
This talks about the local need

3343
05:06:13,206 --> 05:06:16,810
And steps, pit numbers were much

3344
05:06:16,810 --> 05:06:19,780
Better than 2024 for entire

3345
05:06:19,780 --> 05:06:21,782
Contra costa county.

3346
05:06:21,782 --> 05:06:24,050
31% reduction in homelessness,

3347
05:06:24,050 --> 05:06:27,454
But if you look at where we

3348
05:06:27,454 --> 05:06:30,857
Stand 413 in 2024, we are down

3349
05:06:30,857 --> 05:06:33,493
To 246, 246 people unsheltered.

3350
05:06:33,493 --> 05:06:37,164
We still have 792 units for low

3351
05:06:37,164 --> 05:06:39,266
Income which need to be built

3352
05:06:39,266 --> 05:06:43,436
For antioch, and having chs

3353
05:06:43,436 --> 05:06:45,739
Mahogany 85 units helps toward

3354
05:06:45,739 --> 05:06:48,675
Both goals.

3355
05:06:48,675 --> 05:06:50,844
Lastly, giving a quick update on

3356
05:06:50,844 --> 05:06:53,313
Where we stand on the project,

3357
05:06:53,313 --> 05:06:54,848
Properties planning for the

3358
05:06:54,848 --> 05:06:56,049
Conversion, we have already

3359
05:06:56,049 --> 05:06:58,652
Highlighted that by having that

3360
05:06:58,652 --> 05:07:01,087
Banner, we are trying to keep it

3361
05:07:01,087 --> 05:07:03,523
Vacant and be prepared once the

3362
05:07:03,523 --> 05:07:06,026
Award is given, and as we stated

3363
05:07:06,026 --> 05:07:08,428
Earlier, the plan is to have

3364
05:07:08,428 --> 05:07:09,930
Extensive case management

3365
05:07:09,930 --> 05:07:11,598
Services, support services,

3366
05:07:11,598 --> 05:07:16,069
We’ll have a gated community,

3367
05:07:16,069 --> 05:07:18,905
24x7 security so we have a low

3368
05:07:18,905 --> 05:07:20,874
Income supportive housing well

3369
05:07:20,874 --> 05:07:21,508
Functioning.

3370
05:07:21,508 --> 05:07:24,244
It has the appropriate access to

3371
05:07:24,244 --> 05:07:24,845
Health services.

3372
05:07:24,845 --> 05:07:26,780
It is appropriately located.

3373
05:07:26,780 --> 05:07:30,183
David mentioned about the nepa

3374
05:07:30,183 --> 05:07:31,818
Progress thanks to the city we

3375
05:07:31,818 --> 05:07:32,486
Have made so far.

3376
05:07:32,486 --> 05:07:34,020
We are on track on that.

3377
05:07:34,020 --> 05:07:37,624
We have started engaging or

3378
05:07:37,624 --> 05:07:40,494
Reengaged with the department of

3379
05:07:40,494 --> 05:07:42,028
Behavioral health who have

3380
05:07:42,028 --> 05:07:44,197
Committed funding dollars at the

3381
05:07:44,197 --> 05:07:45,765
Time of submission and we are

3382
05:07:45,765 --> 05:07:47,834
Trying to see how additional

3383
05:07:47,834 --> 05:07:50,437
Funds can be secured along with

3384
05:07:50,437 --> 05:07:52,339
District supervisor and measure

3385
05:07:52,339 --> 05:07:54,407
X for ongoing support because we

3386
05:07:54,407 --> 05:07:57,210
Wanted to make sure it’s not

3387
05:07:57,210 --> 05:07:59,112
Just establishing the 85 units,

3388
05:07:59,112 --> 05:08:01,281
But functioning and supporting

3389
05:08:01,281 --> 05:08:03,483
It successfully for 15 years,

3390
05:08:03,483 --> 05:08:05,418
And then hopefully for 55

3391
05:08:05,418 --> 05:08:06,319
Years.

3392
05:08:06,319 --> 05:08:08,622
We are all into the mission of

3393
05:08:08,622 --> 05:08:11,558
Developing the secure low-income

3394
05:08:11,558 --> 05:08:13,894
Community with services to

3395
05:08:13,894 --> 05:08:15,061
Address homelessness.

3396
05:08:15,061 --> 05:08:15,929
That’s all I have.

3397
05:08:15,929 --> 05:08:18,598
We can open up for questions

3398
05:08:18,598 --> 05:08:20,433
Council might have or the

3399
05:08:20,433 --> 05:08:21,134
Community might have.

3400
05:08:21,134 --> 05:08:22,736
>> thank you.

3401
05:08:22,736 --> 05:08:24,037
Do we have public comment on

3402
05:08:24,037 --> 05:08:24,404
This?

3403
05:08:24,404 --> 05:08:26,339
>> yes, we do.

3404
05:08:26,339 --> 05:08:31,077
Leslie followed by mary and

3405
05:08:31,077 --> 05:08:46,860
Dr. Kimberly.

3406
05:08:46,860 --> 05:08:49,763
>> I’m sleepwalking at this

3407
05:08:49,763 --> 05:08:49,996
Point.

3408
05:08:49,996 --> 05:08:55,302
I wanted to give thanks to where

3409
05:08:55,302 --> 05:08:56,670
It’s due.

3410
05:08:56,670 --> 05:09:00,974
Many, many years ago, and

3411
05:09:00,974 --> 05:09:04,111
Brought it to tamisha who helped

3412
05:09:04,111 --> 05:09:07,214
Speer head it to the rest of the

3413
05:09:07,214 --> 05:09:09,483
Council and having a council

3414
05:09:09,483 --> 05:09:11,685
Actually approve it, I’m so

3415
05:09:11,685 --> 05:09:19,126
Excited and happy and thank you, thank you so much.

3416
05:09:19,126 --> 05:09:20,794
[applause]

3417
05:09:20,794 --> 05:09:23,930
>> clerk: dr. Kimberly and

3418
05:09:23,930 --> 05:09:26,833
Then nicole.

3419
05:09:26,833 --> 05:09:29,736
>> I want to say thank you to

3420
05:09:29,736 --> 05:09:32,806
Andrew too -- I don’t see him --

3421
05:09:32,806 --> 05:09:34,474
For bringing this to the council

3422
05:09:34,474 --> 05:09:37,544
For antioch in this much needed

3423
05:09:37,544 --> 05:09:38,245
Community.

3424
05:09:38,245 --> 05:09:41,515
I think the main thing I want to

3425
05:09:41,515 --> 05:09:43,784
Get across or ask the mayor is,

3426
05:09:43,784 --> 05:09:47,487
I remember that you did an

3427
05:09:47,487 --> 05:09:52,759
Interview with the news -- I

3428
05:09:52,759 --> 05:09:55,896
Think it was in june, with jody

3429
05:09:55,896 --> 05:09:58,532
Hernandez and you had a plan for

3430
05:09:58,532 --> 05:09:59,065
Homelessness.

3431
05:09:59,065 --> 05:10:01,368
So far, I haven’t really heard

3432
05:10:01,368 --> 05:10:02,469
That plan.

3433
05:10:02,469 --> 05:10:04,337
Tonight, I heard that the city

3434
05:10:04,337 --> 05:10:05,672
Is struggling.

3435
05:10:05,672 --> 05:10:08,141
The city is going to make cuts.

3436
05:10:08,141 --> 05:10:10,243
The city has all of these

3437
05:10:10,243 --> 05:10:12,646
Issues, but homelessness remains

3438
05:10:12,646 --> 05:10:15,482
One of the biggest issues facing

3439
05:10:15,482 --> 05:10:16,049
Antioch.

3440
05:10:16,049 --> 05:10:17,451
I hope tonight you are the

3441
05:10:17,451 --> 05:10:19,553
Leader to make sure this passes

3442
05:10:19,553 --> 05:10:21,688
And moves through, because it

3443
05:10:21,688 --> 05:10:23,523
Doesn’t seem it’s a burden to

3444
05:10:23,523 --> 05:10:24,524
The city.

3445
05:10:24,524 --> 05:10:27,260
It seems the grant is something

3446
05:10:27,260 --> 05:10:30,664
To help boost the city and solve

3447
05:10:30,664 --> 05:10:32,632
So many of the problems.

3448
05:10:32,632 --> 05:10:34,468
I hope you are the stand up

3449
05:10:34,468 --> 05:10:37,137
Mayor tonight and help this to

3450
05:10:37,137 --> 05:10:39,773
Pass.

3451
05:10:39,773 --> 05:10:44,344
>> clerk: nicole?

3452
05:10:44,344 --> 05:10:52,752
>> this thing don’t bend.

3453
05:10:52,752 --> 05:10:55,155
I have some notes here.

3454
05:10:55,155 --> 05:10:57,557
Thank you, thank you, thank you,

3455
05:10:57,557 --> 05:10:59,526
So much, andrew.

3456
05:10:59,526 --> 05:11:01,628
Give him another round of

3457
05:11:01,628 --> 05:11:03,230
Applause, please?

3458
05:11:03,230 --> 05:11:04,464
That’s enough, you are taking up

3459
05:11:04,464 --> 05:11:08,435
My anytime.

3460
05:11:08,435 --> 05:11:10,303
Time.

3461
05:11:10,303 --> 05:11:15,442
\htime.

3462
05:11:10,303 --> 05:11:15,442
Thank utah you, tamisha,

3463
05:11:15,442 --> 05:11:16,643
Monica.

3464
05:11:16,643 --> 05:11:19,045
Hopefully we get this passed and

3465
05:11:19,045 --> 05:11:20,113
Some people housed.

3466
05:11:20,113 --> 05:11:22,082
Before I came here I was looking

3467
05:11:22,082 --> 05:11:24,851
Online and saw you talking to

3468
05:11:24,851 --> 05:11:25,519
Code enforcement.

3469
05:11:25,519 --> 05:11:27,687
I was like surprised by some of

3470
05:11:27,687 --> 05:11:29,356
The things I heard.

3471
05:11:29,356 --> 05:11:32,058
I was hoping, I know, mayor, you

3472
05:11:32,058 --> 05:11:34,628
Brought up the 18th area.

3473
05:11:34,628 --> 05:11:37,430
We talked about blight and the

3474
05:11:37,430 --> 05:11:39,633
Garbage in the areas and fines.

3475
05:11:39,633 --> 05:11:41,935
I hope they are not thinking the

3476
05:11:41,935 --> 05:11:45,005
Solution is to criminalize

3477
05:11:45,005 --> 05:11:45,972
Homelessness with fines.

3478
05:11:45,972 --> 05:11:48,842
If you were not talking about

3479
05:11:48,842 --> 05:11:51,344
Homelessness, talking to

3480
05:11:51,344 --> 05:11:53,079
Businesses these years, it’s not

3481
05:11:53,079 --> 05:11:54,714
Fair to fine them like that.

3482
05:11:54,714 --> 05:11:56,917
If we are talking about boarded

3483
05:11:56,917 --> 05:11:59,653
Up buildings, not doing

3484
05:11:59,653 --> 05:12:01,521
Anything, that’s one thing.

3485
05:12:01,521 --> 05:12:04,591
I remember the straw hat pizza

3486
05:12:04,591 --> 05:12:05,892
Moved to brentwood.

3487
05:12:05,892 --> 05:12:07,194
I talked to that owner.

3488
05:12:07,194 --> 05:12:08,762
He said there was nothing I

3489
05:12:08,762 --> 05:12:09,529
Could do.

3490
05:12:09,529 --> 05:12:11,565
There was unhoused people all

3491
05:12:11,565 --> 05:12:14,000
Over the place, urinating, using

3492
05:12:14,000 --> 05:12:17,170
The bathroom in front of our

3493
05:12:17,170 --> 05:12:18,238
Businesses, so I don’t think

3494
05:12:18,238 --> 05:12:20,340
It’s fair to fine businesses for

3495
05:12:20,340 --> 05:12:21,775
A situation they have no control

3496
05:12:21,775 --> 05:12:22,309
Over.

3497
05:12:22,309 --> 05:12:24,811
I say that just to say that I

3498
05:12:24,811 --> 05:12:26,580
Think even with this program, I

3499
05:12:26,580 --> 05:12:28,682
Think a lot of businesses,

3500
05:12:28,682 --> 05:12:30,851
Property owners, homeowners

3501
05:12:30,851 --> 05:12:32,152
Would appreciate having a motel

3502
05:12:32,152 --> 05:12:34,488
Like this or a program up and

3503
05:12:34,488 --> 05:12:36,323
Running to get unhoused people

3504
05:12:36,323 --> 05:12:38,658
In front of their businesses, in

3505
05:12:38,658 --> 05:12:40,527
Front of residential areas.

3506
05:12:40,527 --> 05:12:42,662
I think it’s important.

3507
05:12:42,662 --> 05:12:45,532
I want to make clear we are

3508
05:12:45,532 --> 05:12:46,766
Spending so much money already.

3509
05:12:46,766 --> 05:12:49,102
I looked at the video we had

3510
05:12:49,102 --> 05:12:50,804
With the ad hoc committee back

3511
05:12:50,804 --> 05:12:53,140
With the former council a few

3512
05:12:53,140 --> 05:12:54,908
Councils ago, and how they

3513
05:12:54,908 --> 05:12:56,743
Talked about how you spend

3514
05:12:56,743 --> 05:12:58,378
Millions of dollars, had a

3515
05:12:58,378 --> 05:13:00,580
Meeting and learned that -- for

3516
05:13:00,580 --> 05:13:03,116
Code enforcement, the abatement

3517
05:13:03,116 --> 05:13:06,520
Team, community development, apd

3518
05:13:06,520 --> 05:13:07,587
Contractors, tridelta transit

3519
05:13:07,587 --> 05:13:10,657
Come out, the fire department,

3520
05:13:10,657 --> 05:13:13,627
Talked about how negatively

3521
05:13:13,627 --> 05:13:14,628
Impacted they were financially

3522
05:13:14,628 --> 05:13:16,396
Because of unhoused people being

3523
05:13:16,396 --> 05:13:17,164
On the street.

3524
05:13:17,164 --> 05:13:20,133
We know when unhoused people

3525
05:13:20,133 --> 05:13:22,602
Call 911, we have apd come out,

3526
05:13:22,602 --> 05:13:23,937
Fire department, resources that

3527
05:13:23,937 --> 05:13:25,806
We are spending so much money

3528
05:13:25,806 --> 05:13:25,972
For.

3529
05:13:25,972 --> 05:13:27,607
We need to make sure, we have to

3530
05:13:27,607 --> 05:13:28,475
Do this.

3531
05:13:28,475 --> 05:13:30,210
It makes no sense.

3532
05:13:30,210 --> 05:13:32,712
I would like to know if anybody

3533
05:13:32,712 --> 05:13:34,915
Votes this down, what is your

3534
05:13:34,915 --> 05:13:36,750
Solution?

3535
05:13:36,750 --> 05:13:41,054
Community members, andrew, other

3536
05:13:41,054 --> 05:13:43,223
Council, if you vote this down,

3537
05:13:43,223 --> 05:13:44,691
What is the solution?

3538
05:13:44,691 --> 05:13:46,026
That’s all I want to know?

3539
05:13:46,026 --> 05:13:47,994
What is your solution?

3540
05:13:47,994 --> 05:13:49,863
I truly want to know.

3541
05:13:49,863 --> 05:13:51,598
We need to work together and

3542
05:13:51,598 --> 05:13:52,699
Figure this out.

3543
05:13:52,699 --> 05:13:54,668
Home key, come on.

3544
05:13:54,668 --> 05:13:56,203
Let’s go, antioch.

3545
05:13:56,203 --> 05:14:01,074
>> clerk: devin.

3546
05:14:01,074 --> 05:14:11,651
>> good evening, everyone.

3547
05:14:11,651 --> 05:14:12,853
I’m wired.

3548
05:14:12,853 --> 05:14:15,555
I have had so much caffeine

3549
05:14:15,555 --> 05:14:15,755
Today.

3550
05:14:15,755 --> 05:14:18,325
I’m just going to say, I support

3551
05:14:18,325 --> 05:14:19,726
Project home key.

3552
05:14:19,726 --> 05:14:21,928
It’s a solution.

3553
05:14:21,928 --> 05:14:24,664
I saw councilmember walker’s

3554
05:14:24,664 --> 05:14:26,633
Post earlier and I was excited

3555
05:14:26,633 --> 05:14:30,036
To see she was supporting this

3556
05:14:30,036 --> 05:14:31,571
Alongside andrew and nicole.

3557
05:14:31,571 --> 05:14:33,773
I was unaware.

3558
05:14:33,773 --> 05:14:35,542
I have been busy and didn’t know

3559
05:14:35,542 --> 05:14:37,410
This was on the agenda tonight.

3560
05:14:37,410 --> 05:14:39,913
Thank you for the public

3561
05:14:39,913 --> 05:14:40,413
Reminder.

3562
05:14:40,413 --> 05:14:42,415
I want to say that there is a

3563
05:14:42,415 --> 05:14:47,888
Lot of people who -- complain

3564
05:14:47,888 --> 05:14:49,623
And complain about things going

3565
05:14:49,623 --> 05:14:50,657
On in the city.

3566
05:14:50,657 --> 05:14:52,259
They don’t have the solutions.

3567
05:14:52,259 --> 05:14:55,996
They call you idiots and blah, blah.

3568
05:14:55,996 --> 05:14:58,532
You are sitting on your bum all

3569
05:14:58,532 --> 05:14:58,965
Day.

3570
05:14:58,965 --> 05:15:01,268
You are constantly working

3571
05:15:01,268 --> 05:15:02,702
Trying to find solutions.

3572
05:15:02,702 --> 05:15:04,337
I’m tired of seeing people not

3573
05:15:04,337 --> 05:15:06,106
Come up with solutions but

3574
05:15:06,106 --> 05:15:07,841
Having a loud presence

3575
05:15:07,841 --> 05:15:09,242
Everywhere else but don’t want

3576
05:15:09,242 --> 05:15:10,477
To do the work.

3577
05:15:10,477 --> 05:15:14,414
There are advocates like nicole,

3578
05:15:14,414 --> 05:15:17,250
Andrew, tamisha, monica, the

3579
05:15:17,250 --> 05:15:18,685
Mayor and the rest of the

3580
05:15:18,685 --> 05:15:19,519
Council.

3581
05:15:19,519 --> 05:15:21,087
People need to put their mouth

3582
05:15:21,087 --> 05:15:23,723
In this room and work with you

3583
05:15:23,723 --> 05:15:25,258
All and work with other people

3584
05:15:25,258 --> 05:15:26,660
In the room.

3585
05:15:26,660 --> 05:15:28,662
It means nothing to say

3586
05:15:28,662 --> 05:15:30,397
Something online and produce no

3587
05:15:30,397 --> 05:15:30,964
Results.

3588
05:15:30,964 --> 05:15:34,301
What I’m going to say is please

3589
05:15:34,301 --> 05:15:35,435
Support project home key.

3590
05:15:35,435 --> 05:15:37,938
We are hearing a lot about how

3591
05:15:37,938 --> 05:15:40,474
The community is falling apart.

3592
05:15:40,474 --> 05:15:42,309
People are doing this and that.

3593
05:15:42,309 --> 05:15:43,610
Where are the solutions?

3594
05:15:43,610 --> 05:15:46,813
We do, like nicole said, if

3595
05:15:46,813 --> 05:15:48,215
Anyone votes this down, there

3596
05:15:48,215 --> 05:15:49,516
Should be a solution right

3597
05:15:49,516 --> 05:15:49,983
Away.

3598
05:15:49,983 --> 05:15:51,618
There is no reason not to

3599
05:15:51,618 --> 05:15:52,285
Support this.

3600
05:15:52,285 --> 05:15:53,153
Thank you.

3601
05:15:53,153 --> 05:15:54,788
That’s my message to the

3602
05:15:54,788 --> 05:15:55,889
Community tonight.

3603
05:15:55,889 --> 05:15:56,656
I’m wired.

3604
05:15:56,656 --> 05:16:01,094
Thank you.

3605
05:16:01,094 --> 05:16:03,797
>> clerk: no further comment

3606
05:16:03,797 --> 05:16:04,998
Cards.

3607
05:16:04,998 --> 05:16:05,532
Speaker?

3608
05:16:05,532 --> 05:16:18,678
Please, come.

3609
05:16:18,678 --> 05:16:21,348
>> thank you.

3610
05:16:21,348 --> 05:16:23,784
I just wanted to bring a couple

3611
05:16:23,784 --> 05:16:25,619
Of additional highlights.

3612
05:16:25,619 --> 05:16:29,856
Home key plus was paid for

3613
05:16:29,856 --> 05:16:32,526
Through prop one, a state ballot

3614
05:16:32,526 --> 05:16:33,193
Initiative.

3615
05:16:33,193 --> 05:16:38,465
Those are your bond dollars.

3616
05:16:38,465 --> 05:16:42,636
That $2.2 billion record

3617
05:16:42,636 --> 05:16:43,804
$2.2 billion that came out to

3618
05:16:43,804 --> 05:16:46,106
Fund the housing initiative is

3619
05:16:46,106 --> 05:16:51,244
An average of $55, state

3620
05:16:51,244 --> 05:16:52,112
Resident.

3621
05:16:52,112 --> 05:16:53,547
Your home key application here

3622
05:16:53,547 --> 05:16:57,584
In antioch for your resident

3623
05:16:57,584 --> 05:17:01,521
Population here in the city is a

3624
05:17:01,521 --> 05:17:06,993
Return of an average of $290 a

3625
05:17:06,993 --> 05:17:07,461
Person.

3626
05:17:07,461 --> 05:17:12,799
That is taking your dollars and

3627
05:17:12,799 --> 05:17:18,305
Receiving an almost 5x return.

3628
05:17:18,305 --> 05:17:21,341
That is a commitment from

3629
05:17:21,341 --> 05:17:23,877
Community with the response that

3630
05:17:23,877 --> 05:17:30,250
Is desired, and so -- and so, I

3631
05:17:30,250 --> 05:17:35,155
Will say that the biggest take

3632
05:17:35,155 --> 05:17:37,457
Away here is thank you to the

3633
05:17:37,457 --> 05:17:39,092
State residents that voted for

3634
05:17:39,092 --> 05:17:42,929
Prop one.

3635
05:17:42,929 --> 05:17:44,764
Thank you for the residents

3636
05:17:44,764 --> 05:17:46,199
Throughout the state that pay

3637
05:17:46,199 --> 05:17:48,068
Their taxes and contribute to

3638
05:17:48,068 --> 05:17:49,169
Their communities.

3639
05:17:49,169 --> 05:17:50,470
Thank you for the people that

3640
05:17:50,470 --> 05:17:52,539
Live in this community and

3641
05:17:52,539 --> 05:17:57,277
Support these services, and most

3642
05:17:57,277 --> 05:18:00,647
Importantly, you know, I want to

3643
05:18:00,647 --> 05:18:03,183
Say that this is not about me or

3644
05:18:03,183 --> 05:18:10,056
You, this is about rajim co,

3645
05:18:10,056 --> 05:18:12,025
Tyrone marshall, the people I

3646
05:18:12,025 --> 05:18:15,428
Promised this to that are no

3647
05:18:15,428 --> 05:18:18,298
Longer here, but it is a promise

3648
05:18:18,298 --> 05:18:20,367
That is fulfilled.

3649
05:18:20,367 --> 05:18:23,336
That’s what representation your

3650
05:18:23,336 --> 05:18:24,104
Community is.

3651
05:18:24,104 --> 05:18:26,273
That’s what a response to your

3652
05:18:26,273 --> 05:18:28,041
Community’s needs is.

3653
05:18:28,041 --> 05:18:31,478
So, I want to applaud each and

3654
05:18:31,478 --> 05:18:33,713
Every one of you for championing

3655
05:18:33,713 --> 05:18:36,683
This on our behalf, for being

3656
05:18:36,683 --> 05:18:40,187
Part of this arduous journey,

3657
05:18:40,187 --> 05:18:41,721
And more importantly for

3658
05:18:41,721 --> 05:18:43,690
Supporting individuals like

3659
05:18:43,690 --> 05:18:45,425
Rajim and tyrone.

3660
05:18:45,425 --> 05:18:47,561
Because they do not deserve to

3661
05:18:47,561 --> 05:18:52,866
Have their lives taken on our

3662
05:18:52,866 --> 05:18:54,301
Streets through unjust crimes,

3663
05:18:54,301 --> 05:18:58,004
Nor do they deserve to expire

3664
05:18:58,004 --> 05:19:02,042
Under a tarp that is purchased

3665
05:19:02,042 --> 05:19:03,743
From home depot on our sidewalks

3666
05:19:03,743 --> 05:19:05,946
And communities.

3667
05:19:05,946 --> 05:19:12,285
We have a higher moral calling

3668
05:19:12,285 --> 05:19:17,557
And today, this update is that

3669
05:19:17,557 --> 05:19:19,426
Moral calling again being

3670
05:19:19,426 --> 05:19:19,726
Answered.

3671
05:19:19,726 --> 05:19:29,269
Thank you.

3672
05:19:29,269 --> 05:19:32,772
>> no further public comment.

3673
05:19:32,772 --> 05:19:34,207
>> mayor ron bernal: this is

3674
05:19:34,207 --> 05:19:35,842
Before the council.

3675
05:19:35,842 --> 05:19:37,677
Comments from the council in

3676
05:19:37,677 --> 05:19:38,111
Councilmember rocha?

3677
05:19:38,111 --> 05:19:40,247
>> I requested an update.

3678
05:19:40,247 --> 05:19:43,517
I wanted to know where we stood,

3679
05:19:43,517 --> 05:19:46,086
Looking historically, where it

3680
05:19:46,086 --> 05:19:47,487
Started.

3681
05:19:47,487 --> 05:19:50,023
We resubmitted an application.

3682
05:19:50,023 --> 05:19:51,558
We have some information along

3683
05:19:51,558 --> 05:19:51,958
The way.

3684
05:19:51,958 --> 05:19:54,928
I wanted to know, as we are

3685
05:19:54,928 --> 05:19:58,465
Getting ready -- did I cut her

3686
05:19:58,465 --> 05:20:02,035
Off -- sorry, didn’t mean to do

3687
05:20:02,035 --> 05:20:03,703
That.

3688
05:20:03,703 --> 05:20:05,772
As we are looking into

3689
05:20:05,772 --> 05:20:07,307
Developing our budget moving

3690
05:20:07,307 --> 05:20:09,176
Into next year, I felt it was

3691
05:20:09,176 --> 05:20:10,544
Important that we know where we

3692
05:20:10,544 --> 05:20:12,012
Are at.

3693
05:20:12,012 --> 05:20:14,648
Obviously, there are questions I

3694
05:20:14,648 --> 05:20:16,216
Had, and maybe for the benefit

3695
05:20:16,216 --> 05:20:17,851
Of the community, my

3696
05:20:17,851 --> 05:20:19,252
Understanding is that the state

3697
05:20:19,252 --> 05:20:21,021
Of california in the slide

3698
05:20:21,021 --> 05:20:24,391
Presentation, I want to believe

3699
05:20:24,391 --> 05:20:27,327
It’s 34.9 million if awarded to

3700
05:20:27,327 --> 05:20:28,428
This project.

3701
05:20:28,428 --> 05:20:31,264
I believe the initial purchase

3702
05:20:31,264 --> 05:20:35,902
Of the hotel -- we could use

3703
05:20:35,902 --> 05:20:38,638
Potentially the cdbg funding

3704
05:20:38,638 --> 05:20:41,842
Available to us for acquisition,

3705
05:20:41,842 --> 05:20:42,375
750,000.

3706
05:20:42,375 --> 05:20:44,444
If awarded, we could potentially

3707
05:20:44,444 --> 05:20:44,778
Use that.

3708
05:20:44,778 --> 05:20:47,514
We have a meeting in two weeks

3709
05:20:47,514 --> 05:20:50,884
To discuss cdbg and housing

3710
05:20:50,884 --> 05:20:51,551
Successor funds.

3711
05:20:51,551 --> 05:20:53,420
We are trying to pull everything

3712
05:20:53,420 --> 05:20:55,188
Together as we move forward.

3713
05:20:55,188 --> 05:20:57,390
My understanding for the city of

3714
05:20:57,390 --> 05:21:00,994
Antioch, it’s 1.2 commitment,

3715
05:21:00,994 --> 05:21:03,964
And I understand it’s five year

3716
05:21:03,964 --> 05:21:04,731
Periods.

3717
05:21:04,731 --> 05:21:09,202
The first five years, 6,000,000,

3718
05:21:09,202 --> 05:21:11,171
The matches from the state, and

3719
05:21:11,171 --> 05:21:12,272
Another five years.

3720
05:21:12,272 --> 05:21:13,974
My question was going to be, I

3721
05:21:13,974 --> 05:21:15,542
Don’t know if you can answer

3722
05:21:15,542 --> 05:21:15,976
That.

3723
05:21:15,976 --> 05:21:17,944
What is the evaluation process

3724
05:21:17,944 --> 05:21:20,814
As we go through, are there

3725
05:21:20,814 --> 05:21:23,416
Goals or targets we look at in

3726
05:21:23,416 --> 05:21:26,386
The increments moving forward?

3727
05:21:26,386 --> 05:21:28,588
Those are primarily the main

3728
05:21:28,588 --> 05:21:30,891
Things I wanted to know.

3729
05:21:30,891 --> 05:21:33,326
I saw your information today,

3730
05:21:33,326 --> 05:21:35,295
Communication that has come

3731
05:21:35,295 --> 05:21:37,030
Regarding potential of finding

3732
05:21:37,030 --> 05:21:39,866
Out sooner than later.

3733
05:21:39,866 --> 05:21:42,202
My -- from where I’m sitting, I

3734
05:21:42,202 --> 05:21:43,170
Want to have all of the

3735
05:21:43,170 --> 05:21:45,138
Information I can moving forward

3736
05:21:45,138 --> 05:21:47,240
When going to develop the budget

3737
05:21:47,240 --> 05:21:50,510
For the ’26-’27 year, I wanted

3738
05:21:50,510 --> 05:21:52,779
To know where we stand with the

3739
05:21:52,779 --> 05:21:53,079
Commitment.

3740
05:21:53,079 --> 05:21:55,549
I wanted to know what the

3741
05:21:55,549 --> 05:21:58,819
Timeline was when we find out,

3742
05:21:58,819 --> 05:22:01,588
But it sounds like realtime it’s

3743
05:22:01,588 --> 05:22:02,355
Happening right now.

3744
05:22:02,355 --> 05:22:04,591
Those are the questions I wanted

3745
05:22:04,591 --> 05:22:06,293
To raise before us so we are all

3746
05:22:06,293 --> 05:22:08,261
On the same page and for the

3747
05:22:08,261 --> 05:22:10,630
Benefit of the community because

3748
05:22:10,630 --> 05:22:12,966
I hear comments on both sides.

3749
05:22:12,966 --> 05:22:14,601
Why are we doing the hotel?

3750
05:22:14,601 --> 05:22:16,736
I think it’s clearly that we

3751
05:22:16,736 --> 05:22:18,538
Have done short-term projects,

3752
05:22:18,538 --> 05:22:21,608
You know, opportunity village,

3753
05:22:21,608 --> 05:22:24,578
Addressing homelessness with

3754
05:22:24,578 --> 05:22:26,847
Encampments we needed to help

3755
05:22:26,847 --> 05:22:29,049
People find a place to live and

3756
05:22:29,049 --> 05:22:29,950
Survive.

3757
05:22:29,950 --> 05:22:31,985
Those are temporary, those are

3758
05:22:31,985 --> 05:22:33,520
Lease agreements.

3759
05:22:33,520 --> 05:22:35,155
We don’t own the properties.

3760
05:22:35,155 --> 05:22:38,558
Once the term ended, we turn it

3761
05:22:38,558 --> 05:22:40,560
Back and start over again.

3762
05:22:40,560 --> 05:22:43,597
This to me when we looked at it

3763
05:22:43,597 --> 05:22:45,599
Is a long-term solution paid

3764
05:22:45,599 --> 05:22:47,434
Through state funding and

3765
05:22:47,434 --> 05:22:48,802
Taxpayer dollars intended for

3766
05:22:48,802 --> 05:22:51,204
The purpose.

3767
05:22:51,204 --> 05:22:55,475
So, for 34.9 million for us to

3768
05:22:55,475 --> 05:22:57,644
Commit 1.2 annually, it made

3769
05:22:57,644 --> 05:23:01,248
Sense to look at that as an

3770
05:23:01,248 --> 05:23:03,350
Investment toward a long range

3771
05:23:03,350 --> 05:23:03,617
Solution.

3772
05:23:03,617 --> 05:23:06,253
I wanted to bring this up to

3773
05:23:06,253 --> 05:23:08,588
Have clear understanding as to

3774
05:23:08,588 --> 05:23:12,092
Where we are at and find out if

3775
05:23:12,092 --> 05:23:16,563
There is an answer yes or no if

3776
05:23:16,563 --> 05:23:18,431
This is happening or not.

3777
05:23:18,431 --> 05:23:20,300
I was the one that brought it

3778
05:23:20,300 --> 05:23:20,500
Up.

3779
05:23:20,500 --> 05:23:23,136
It wasn’t the other members.

3780
05:23:23,136 --> 05:23:25,138
It was me the last couple of

3781
05:23:25,138 --> 05:23:25,372
Months.

3782
05:23:25,372 --> 05:23:27,440
I wanted to start off kicking

3783
05:23:27,440 --> 05:23:31,845
Off the conversation.

3784
05:23:31,845 --> 05:23:33,447
>> pro-tem: I have a question

3785
05:23:33,447 --> 05:23:54,601
For the applicant.

3786
05:23:54,601 --> 05:23:58,405
Began construction was december

3787
05:23:58,405 --> 05:24:03,743
Poe 20, 2025.

3788
05:24:03,743 --> 05:24:07,614
End, november 2026.

3789
05:24:07,614 --> 05:24:13,720
Assuming that we’ll favorably

3790
05:24:13,720 --> 05:24:15,355
Review, assuming they move

3791
05:24:15,355 --> 05:24:17,591
Forward with their money, we

3792
05:24:17,591 --> 05:24:21,495
Have jump started the nepa

3793
05:24:21,495 --> 05:24:21,728
Process.

3794
05:24:21,728 --> 05:24:24,598
My question is, will you be able

3795
05:24:24,598 --> 05:24:27,334
To actually make this be a

3796
05:24:27,334 --> 05:24:28,468
Reality according to the

3797
05:24:28,468 --> 05:24:31,104
Timelines that I’m sure they are

3798
05:24:31,104 --> 05:24:32,539
Going to dictate?

3799
05:24:32,539 --> 05:24:34,608
It doesn’t make sense to me to

3800
05:24:34,608 --> 05:24:37,711
Go through the whole effort if

3801
05:24:37,711 --> 05:24:38,278
You can’t produce.

3802
05:24:38,278 --> 05:24:39,980
>> absolutely.

3803
05:24:39,980 --> 05:24:43,183
Just to add, and I think I

3804
05:24:43,183 --> 05:24:46,219
Shared that staff added with

3805
05:24:46,219 --> 05:24:48,321
David, first timeline shared was

3806
05:24:48,321 --> 05:24:52,025
Based on the assumptions of the

3807
05:24:52,025 --> 05:24:53,560
Timeline the city shared in

3808
05:24:53,560 --> 05:24:55,529
Terms of awards and so on.

3809
05:24:55,529 --> 05:24:57,631
They said they’ll start giving

3810
05:24:57,631 --> 05:24:59,032
Awards in september.

3811
05:24:59,032 --> 05:25:01,201
Based on those, the prior

3812
05:25:01,201 --> 05:25:02,636
Timeline was, and now that we

3813
05:25:02,636 --> 05:25:06,373
Are in march and it’s pretty

3814
05:25:06,373 --> 05:25:08,341
Eminent that we’ll get it

3815
05:25:08,341 --> 05:25:11,411
Reviewed march 12th, we’ll know

3816
05:25:11,411 --> 05:25:14,448
Within a week or so or worse

3817
05:25:14,448 --> 05:25:16,550
Case three or four weeks.

3818
05:25:16,550 --> 05:25:21,354
We can start the april or may

3819
05:25:21,354 --> 05:25:21,688
Timeframe.

3820
05:25:21,688 --> 05:25:24,491
We are expecting about 8 to 12

3821
05:25:24,491 --> 05:25:24,958
Months.

3822
05:25:24,958 --> 05:25:27,160
That’s what our experiences,

3823
05:25:27,160 --> 05:25:28,795
What we are seeing the

3824
05:25:28,795 --> 05:25:29,996
Rehabilitation are taking.

3825
05:25:29,996 --> 05:25:31,631
Based on that knowledge is what

3826
05:25:31,631 --> 05:25:33,834
We have put together the revised

3827
05:25:33,834 --> 05:25:34,201
Timeline.

3828
05:25:34,201 --> 05:25:36,136
We are confident with the

3829
05:25:36,136 --> 05:25:37,070
Revised timeline.

3830
05:25:37,070 --> 05:25:40,273
Of course, if things delay from

3831
05:25:40,273 --> 05:25:43,810
Either city perspective or nepa

3832
05:25:43,810 --> 05:25:45,545
Perspective or others that might

3833
05:25:45,545 --> 05:25:47,581
Move the starting date, but we

3834
05:25:47,581 --> 05:25:49,716
Are trying to be confident about

3835
05:25:49,716 --> 05:25:52,018
When we start we are able to

3836
05:25:52,018 --> 05:25:54,087
Finish well within the 12 month

3837
05:25:54,087 --> 05:25:55,822
Requirement of completion of

3838
05:25:55,822 --> 05:25:57,691
Construction and 15 month

3839
05:25:57,691 --> 05:25:59,326
Requirement of occupancy.

3840
05:25:59,326 --> 05:26:01,194
That’s what we are targeting to

3841
05:26:01,194 --> 05:26:01,428
Do.

3842
05:26:01,428 --> 05:26:03,864
>> I want to make sure publicly

3843
05:26:03,864 --> 05:26:06,399
That you are ready to move

3844
05:26:06,399 --> 05:26:08,368
Forward to get it in that

3845
05:26:08,368 --> 05:26:11,471
Timeframe, the 12 month and 15

3846
05:26:11,471 --> 05:26:11,738
Month.

3847
05:26:11,738 --> 05:26:13,607
>> yes, and no.

3848
05:26:13,607 --> 05:26:16,009
I’ll tell you why I’m saying no

3849
05:26:16,009 --> 05:26:18,879
Is that we have come in number

3850
05:26:18,879 --> 05:26:21,381
And requested multiple times to

3851
05:26:21,381 --> 05:26:24,351
Unlock some of the initial money

3852
05:26:24,351 --> 05:26:25,786
For predevelopment so we can

3853
05:26:25,786 --> 05:26:29,389
Start for the submission of --

3854
05:26:29,389 --> 05:26:31,424
And getting the permit so that

3855
05:26:31,424 --> 05:26:33,426
Could be lined up as well with

3856
05:26:33,426 --> 05:26:34,427
Those two timelines.

3857
05:26:34,427 --> 05:26:37,264
>> I think from a city

3858
05:26:37,264 --> 05:26:38,565
Perspective, we have to know if

3859
05:26:38,565 --> 05:26:40,534
It’s going to be awarded.

3860
05:26:40,534 --> 05:26:43,270
You have to assume that from my

3861
05:26:43,270 --> 05:26:44,104
Perspective.

3862
05:26:44,104 --> 05:26:46,173
If it’s awarded, then you go.

3863
05:26:46,173 --> 05:26:47,974
>> yes, we’ll be able to meet

3864
05:26:47,974 --> 05:26:48,208
That.

3865
05:26:48,208 --> 05:26:50,844
>> thank you.

3866
05:26:50,844 --> 05:26:53,346
>> mayor ron bernal: any other

3867
05:26:53,346 --> 05:26:56,550
Questions or comments?

3868
05:26:56,550 --> 05:26:58,718
The item requests that --

3869
05:26:58,718 --> 05:27:01,021
>> move to receiving file.

3870
05:27:01,021 --> 05:27:04,191
>> I have a motion to receive

3871
05:27:04,191 --> 05:27:05,859
File from mayor pro-tem

3872
05:27:05,859 --> 05:27:06,092

>> second from councilmember

Please cast your votes.

3876

Moving on to item 9 --

3881
05:27:29,149 --> 05:27:31,218

>> we need to move forward.

3887
05:27:44,498 --> 05:27:47,868
>> mayor ron bernal: yeah,

And city council.

The city has studied the

3895
05:28:04,317 --> 05:28:07,254
Feasibility of adopting an

3896
05:28:07,254 --> 05:28:10,123

Tonight this is before the

3900
05:28:16,096 --> 05:28:17,264

3901
05:28:17,264 --> 05:28:19,266
Additional recommended actions

Include the establishment of

I’m joined by greg good fellow

Thank you, counselors and

Mayor.

3928
05:29:14,588 --> 05:29:16,256
It’s nice to be here again.

3929
05:29:16,256 --> 05:29:17,691
I have a presentation.

3930
05:29:17,691 --> 05:29:19,526
There was a lot of background

3931
05:29:19,526 --> 05:29:20,961
Material in my past

3932
05:29:20,961 --> 05:29:21,528
Presentations.

3933
05:29:21,528 --> 05:29:24,297
I know we have had a busy night

3934
05:29:24,297 --> 05:29:26,700
And there is a lot of legal and

3935
05:29:26,700 --> 05:29:27,467
Technical material.

3936
05:29:27,467 --> 05:29:30,003
I’ll try to move through quickly

3937
05:29:30,003 --> 05:29:32,405
But I want to make sure the

3938
05:29:32,405 --> 05:29:34,474
Public and council are well

3939
05:29:34,474 --> 05:29:36,143
Versed on the background and

3940
05:29:36,143 --> 05:29:36,676
Issue.

3941
05:29:36,676 --> 05:29:38,645
So what we are going to do as

3942
05:29:38,645 --> 05:29:40,947
Zoe mentioned, we’ll introduce

3943
05:29:40,947 --> 05:29:42,916
By title only and waive the

3944
05:29:42,916 --> 05:29:45,652
First reading of the ordinance

3945
05:29:45,652 --> 05:29:46,953
Amending title ix planning and

3946
05:29:46,953 --> 05:29:49,589
Zoning to add article 43,

3947
05:29:49,589 --> 05:29:51,224
Inclusionary housing, the basic

3948
05:29:51,224 --> 05:29:54,594
Bones of the element is a 15%

3949
05:29:54,594 --> 05:29:55,929
Affordable housing requirement.

3950
05:29:55,929 --> 05:30:00,567
It would include an in-lieu

3951
05:30:00,567 --> 05:30:02,402
Option paired with the housing

3952
05:30:02,402 --> 05:30:03,370
Trust fund.

3953
05:30:03,370 --> 05:30:06,540
The city needs a place to put

3954
05:30:06,540 --> 05:30:08,508
The in lieu fees collected.

3955
05:30:08,508 --> 05:30:10,944
It would require a plan by

3956
05:30:10,944 --> 05:30:14,314
Developers utilizing the iho,

3957
05:30:14,314 --> 05:30:17,384
And it includes various

3958
05:30:17,384 --> 05:30:18,919
Standards to ensure affordable

3959
05:30:18,919 --> 05:30:20,921
Units are up to snuff with the

3960
05:30:20,921 --> 05:30:22,422
Other standards.

3961
05:30:22,422 --> 05:30:25,492
This would involve a resolution

3962
05:30:25,492 --> 05:30:27,894
To include the trust fund and

3963
05:30:27,894 --> 05:30:29,763
Resolution amending the master

3964
05:30:29,763 --> 05:30:31,631
Fee schedule to add the inlieu

3965
05:30:31,631 --> 05:30:34,901
Fee.

3966
05:30:34,901 --> 05:30:36,803
Quickly background on this

3967
05:30:36,803 --> 05:30:39,406
Again, inclues nary housing 101,

3968
05:30:39,406 --> 05:30:41,942
An ordinance requiring new

3969
05:30:41,942 --> 05:30:44,311
Market rate projects to set

3970
05:30:44,311 --> 05:30:49,816
Aside a portion of the units, as

3971
05:30:49,816 --> 05:30:51,985
Affordable housing and the pay

3972
05:30:51,985 --> 05:30:56,690
In fee in lieu of constructing

3973
05:30:56,690 --> 05:30:57,491
Units.

3974
05:30:57,491 --> 05:30:59,993
Why in antioch, there is a heavy

3975
05:30:59,993 --> 05:31:05,132
Number here, 1,741 low income

3976
05:31:05,132 --> 05:31:07,234
Units going all the way to the

3977
05:31:07,234 --> 05:31:08,535
Development of the housing

3978
05:31:08,535 --> 05:31:09,836
Element and decided by the

3979
05:31:09,836 --> 05:31:11,738
Council here and community here

3980
05:31:11,738 --> 05:31:14,141
That the housing element was a

3981
05:31:14,141 --> 05:31:15,876
Community oriented process to

3982
05:31:15,876 --> 05:31:17,844
Include the action item to

3983
05:31:17,844 --> 05:31:22,115
Include an iho study citing a

3984
05:31:22,115 --> 05:31:25,519
Goal of 360-460 affordable

3985
05:31:25,519 --> 05:31:25,819
Units.

3986
05:31:25,819 --> 05:31:28,688
We are looking at a finite

3987
05:31:28,688 --> 05:31:29,322
Number here.

3988
05:31:29,322 --> 05:31:31,858
We can go beyond that, but this

3989
05:31:31,858 --> 05:31:33,593
Goes back to the heavily public

3990
05:31:33,593 --> 05:31:35,095
Process of the housing element

3991
05:31:35,095 --> 05:31:37,697
Which is certified by the state

3992
05:31:37,697 --> 05:31:40,667
In a rigorous review process the

3993
05:31:40,667 --> 05:31:44,037
Council is aware of.

3994
05:31:44,037 --> 05:31:45,372
Quick what we have done so far,

3995
05:31:45,372 --> 05:31:48,408
A lot of input has gone into the

3996
05:31:48,408 --> 05:31:51,178
Iho, it’s not developed in a

3997
05:31:51,178 --> 05:31:55,248
Vacuum be by any means.

3998
05:31:55,248 --> 05:32:00,787
We have a multilingual community

3999
05:32:00,787 --> 05:32:01,354
Meeting.

4000
05:32:01,354 --> 05:32:03,657
We met with developers to get

4001
05:32:03,657 --> 05:32:06,827
Their concerns, ideas, heavy

4002
05:32:06,827 --> 05:32:08,462
Online outreach.

4003
05:32:08,462 --> 05:32:10,664
The project is updated

4004
05:32:10,664 --> 05:32:12,632
Constantly, we had a community

4005
05:32:12,632 --> 05:32:14,301
Survey october 15th, 2024.

4006
05:32:14,301 --> 05:32:16,903
All of the results of the

4007
05:32:16,903 --> 05:32:19,105
Outreach has been in past staff

4008
05:32:19,105 --> 05:32:20,507
Reports.

4009
05:32:20,507 --> 05:32:23,243
I won’t get into details except

4010
05:32:23,243 --> 05:32:26,680
To stress this reflects the

4011
05:32:26,680 --> 05:32:27,447
Community input.

4012
05:32:27,447 --> 05:32:31,718
Last year we did interviews with

4013
05:32:31,718 --> 05:32:33,887
The staff in the county to find

4014
05:32:33,887 --> 05:32:36,423
Out what administering was like

4015
05:32:36,423 --> 05:32:37,724
And get their input.

4016
05:32:37,724 --> 05:32:42,429
On the technical side we had a

4017
05:32:42,429 --> 05:32:44,397
Feasibility analysis, assessing

4018
05:32:44,397 --> 05:32:46,900
Impact on the bottom line of

4019
05:32:46,900 --> 05:32:49,002
Market rate units, how they are

4020
05:32:49,002 --> 05:32:51,872
Going to play out, a heavy pro

4021
05:32:51,872 --> 05:32:53,140
Forma process.

4022
05:32:53,140 --> 05:32:56,543
We completed an inlieu fee

4023
05:32:56,543 --> 05:32:56,810
Analysis.

4024
05:32:56,810 --> 05:32:57,978
I have a section of the

4025
05:32:57,978 --> 05:33:00,480
Presentation to go over how we

4026
05:33:00,480 --> 05:33:03,884
Developed the in-lieu fee.

4027
05:33:03,884 --> 05:33:05,952
We calculated the local

4028
05:33:05,952 --> 05:33:09,022
Affordable housing gap and fill

4029
05:33:09,022 --> 05:33:11,424
It with the fee.

4030
05:33:11,424 --> 05:33:14,928
We have presented summaries of

4031
05:33:14,928 --> 05:33:17,898
Ihos, looked at approaches.

4032
05:33:17,898 --> 05:33:20,734
As you know, there have been

4033
05:33:20,734 --> 05:33:22,035
Multiple study sessions of the

4034
05:33:22,035 --> 05:33:23,603
Council and commission.

4035
05:33:23,603 --> 05:33:25,972
What is this proposed

4036
05:33:25,972 --> 05:33:28,842
Inclusionary housing ordinance?

4037
05:33:28,842 --> 05:33:31,812
Again, this first -- what

4038
05:33:31,812 --> 05:33:34,214
Projects will this apply to?

4039
05:33:34,214 --> 05:33:36,183
Projects city wide.

4040
05:33:36,183 --> 05:33:38,585
No geographical scope.

4041
05:33:38,585 --> 05:33:40,120
It’s the entire city.

4042
05:33:40,120 --> 05:33:42,956
It applies to five or more

4043
05:33:42,956 --> 05:33:43,423
Units.

4044
05:33:43,423 --> 05:33:45,058
Why the number five?

4045
05:33:45,058 --> 05:33:48,562
It fits cog and wheel with the

4046
05:33:48,562 --> 05:33:51,731
Subdivision map act, five

4047
05:33:51,731 --> 05:33:53,900
Subdivisions for the map act to

4048
05:33:53,900 --> 05:33:54,568
Take shape.

4049
05:33:54,568 --> 05:33:57,337
That sets a stage to apply for

4050
05:33:57,337 --> 05:33:58,972
Projects of a significant size

4051
05:33:58,972 --> 05:33:59,840
And heft.

4052
05:33:59,840 --> 05:34:02,242
It’s not going to apply to a

4053
05:34:02,242 --> 05:34:03,777
Family developing an extra

4054
05:34:03,777 --> 05:34:04,611
Unit.

4055
05:34:04,611 --> 05:34:07,347
It fits in with the subdivision

4056
05:34:07,347 --> 05:34:08,048
Map act.

4057
05:34:08,048 --> 05:34:10,784
The requirement, 15% of market

4058
05:34:10,784 --> 05:34:13,653
Rate units as I mentioned, 10%

4059
05:34:13,653 --> 05:34:15,522
Affordable to low income

4060
05:34:15,522 --> 05:34:18,592
Households and 5% to low income

4061
05:34:18,592 --> 05:34:19,359
Households.

4062
05:34:19,359 --> 05:34:24,364
If the project is so small, it’s

4063
05:34:24,364 --> 05:34:28,335
Fractional or difficult to

4064
05:34:28,335 --> 05:34:30,203
Operate, say you have 12 units,

4065
05:34:30,203 --> 05:34:34,574
You need to apply the low income

4066
05:34:34,574 --> 05:34:35,342
Flip-flopping until the

4067
05:34:35,342 --> 05:34:37,110
Requirement is met.

4068
05:34:37,110 --> 05:34:40,480
That’s just -- will lead to a

4069
05:34:40,480 --> 05:34:45,118
Balance within the small Project.

4070
05:34:45,118 --> 05:34:47,187
Those affordable units will have

4071
05:34:47,187 --> 05:34:50,023
To remain affordable in

4072
05:34:50,023 --> 05:34:50,423
Perpetuity.

4073
05:34:50,423 --> 05:34:54,161
No one will make money off the

4074
05:34:54,161 --> 05:34:55,362
Sales later.

4075
05:34:55,362 --> 05:35:00,734
There is an inlieu fee option

4076
05:35:00,734 --> 05:35:03,703
$220,500 per unit reassessed

4077
05:35:03,703 --> 05:35:05,772
Annually based on the cpi and

4078
05:35:05,772 --> 05:35:07,073
Other factors.

4079
05:35:07,073 --> 05:35:10,577
This ordinance doesn’t include

4080
05:35:10,577 --> 05:35:11,478
Alternative compliance.

4081
05:35:11,478 --> 05:35:13,980
Some in the past, alternative

4082
05:35:13,980 --> 05:35:16,049
Compliance is more popular.

4083
05:35:16,049 --> 05:35:18,852
It is less popular and relevant

4084
05:35:18,852 --> 05:35:21,855
Because of the extreme number of

4085
05:35:21,855 --> 05:35:23,623
Streamlining and concessions and

4086
05:35:23,623 --> 05:35:26,159
Waivers that come out of state

4087
05:35:26,159 --> 05:35:27,994
Housing policy.

4088
05:35:27,994 --> 05:35:30,630
There are so many ways for

4089
05:35:30,630 --> 05:35:32,365
Housing projects to move through

4090
05:35:32,365 --> 05:35:34,468
The process easily and save

4091
05:35:34,468 --> 05:35:37,971
Money by providing affordable

4092
05:35:37,971 --> 05:35:41,041
Units and I also point out that

4093
05:35:41,041 --> 05:35:42,476
Without having alternative

4094
05:35:42,476 --> 05:35:48,882
Compliance in this iho, there is

4095
05:35:48,882 --> 05:35:51,118
The potential of avoiding time

4096
05:35:51,118 --> 05:35:54,154
For complex options, donating

4097
05:35:54,154 --> 05:35:57,891
Land off site or things things

4098
05:35:57,891 --> 05:35:59,192
Like that, that require staff

4099
05:35:59,192 --> 05:36:00,760
Time or delays.

4100
05:36:00,760 --> 05:36:04,898
They remove focus of building

4101
05:36:04,898 --> 05:36:05,999
Affordable housing on the site

4102
05:36:05,999 --> 05:36:07,868
Of the development which is the

4103
05:36:07,868 --> 05:36:09,402
Goal of the city.

4104
05:36:09,402 --> 05:36:11,705
The inclusionary housing

4105
05:36:11,705 --> 05:36:14,107
Ordinance requires an affordable

4106
05:36:14,107 --> 05:36:16,276
Housing plan, a detailed

4107
05:36:16,276 --> 05:36:17,611
Contract between the developer

4108
05:36:17,611 --> 05:36:19,679
And city, needs to be submitted

4109
05:36:19,679 --> 05:36:22,616
With the application, specify

4110
05:36:22,616 --> 05:36:24,818
The inclusionary calculations.

4111
05:36:24,818 --> 05:36:26,553
50% is set.

4112
05:36:26,553 --> 05:36:29,256
We want you to demonstrate your

4113
05:36:29,256 --> 05:36:31,057
Math and make sure it’s

4114
05:36:31,057 --> 05:36:32,759
Consistent with ours, document

4115
05:36:32,759 --> 05:36:34,461
The locations and their plans,

4116
05:36:34,461 --> 05:36:37,397
And again, that is so staff can

4117
05:36:37,397 --> 05:36:40,033
Make sure they are up to snuff

4118
05:36:40,033 --> 05:36:42,669
With the standards laid out in

4119
05:36:42,669 --> 05:36:45,071
The ordinance, making sure the

4120
05:36:45,071 --> 05:36:48,141
Exterior materials are high

4121
05:36:48,141 --> 05:36:50,343
Quality room sizes in proportion

4122
05:36:50,343 --> 05:36:52,379
And things like that.

4123
05:36:52,379 --> 05:36:54,614
The affordable housing plan

4124
05:36:54,614 --> 05:36:56,016
Establishes the housing

4125
05:36:56,016 --> 05:36:57,684
Requirements, a few of the

4126
05:36:57,684 --> 05:36:59,186
Bullets in the ordinance itself

4127
05:36:59,186 --> 05:37:02,189
To make sure the city and

4128
05:37:02,189 --> 05:37:04,124
Developer are on the same page

4129
05:37:04,124 --> 05:37:05,992
Before this kicks off.

4130
05:37:05,992 --> 05:37:09,129
I mention standards laid out in

4131
05:37:09,129 --> 05:37:11,932
The ordinance, all inclusionary

4132
05:37:11,932 --> 05:37:14,434
Units need to be the same

4133
05:37:14,434 --> 05:37:16,636
Proportion, the bedrooms etc.,

4134
05:37:16,636 --> 05:37:19,039
90% of the size of market rate

4135
05:37:19,039 --> 05:37:20,674
Units with the same bedroom

4136
05:37:20,674 --> 05:37:25,946
Could could counts, same

4137
05:37:25,946 --> 05:37:28,014
Exterior quality design as

4138
05:37:28,014 --> 05:37:29,716
Market rate units and should be

4139
05:37:29,716 --> 05:37:33,153
The case with all housing, meet

4140
05:37:33,153 --> 05:37:36,022
All standards in title 8 and 9.

4141
05:37:36,022 --> 05:37:38,758
The idea is that the affordable

4142
05:37:38,758 --> 05:37:41,261
Units are not afterthoughts, not

4143
05:37:41,261 --> 05:37:43,930
Considered add on to the larger

4144
05:37:43,930 --> 05:37:45,832
Development, distributed easily

4145
05:37:45,832 --> 05:37:47,734
And as important as the market

4146
05:37:47,734 --> 05:37:51,371
Rate products.

4147
05:37:51,371 --> 05:37:53,874
I’ll spend a bit of time on the

4148
05:37:53,874 --> 05:37:55,742
Technical component of the

4149
05:37:55,742 --> 05:37:58,245
In-lieu fee in the associated

4150
05:37:58,245 --> 05:37:59,679
Housing trust fund.

4151
05:37:59,679 --> 05:38:02,382
There are many ways that

4152
05:38:02,382 --> 05:38:04,151
Consultants and cities and

4153
05:38:04,151 --> 05:38:06,119
Counties develop and identify

4154
05:38:06,119 --> 05:38:09,489
Their required in-lieu fee.

4155
05:38:09,489 --> 05:38:16,263
We use the approach called the

4156
05:38:16,263 --> 05:38:18,698
Affordable housing financing

4157
05:38:18,698 --> 05:38:19,466
Gap.

4158
05:38:19,466 --> 05:38:23,503
A single unit in the city of

4159
05:38:23,503 --> 05:38:24,171
Antioch, $440,000.

4160
05:38:24,171 --> 05:38:26,039
I’ll explain how we got there.

4161
05:38:26,039 --> 05:38:28,542
Then we calculated the per unit

4162
05:38:28,542 --> 05:38:31,077
Financing that a developer and

4163
05:38:31,077 --> 05:38:33,146
Affordable housing developer

4164
05:38:33,146 --> 05:38:38,418
Typically receives per unit,

4165
05:38:38,418 --> 05:38:39,853
$237,512.

4166
05:38:39,853 --> 05:38:41,354
Subtract the latter from the

4167
05:38:41,354 --> 05:38:47,794
Former and find the gap of

4168
05:38:47,794 --> 05:38:55,135
$202,500 voasuated $202,500.00

4169
05:38:55,135 --> 05:39:00,040
Associated with the unbuilt

4170
05:39:00,040 --> 05:39:00,874
Unit.

4171
05:39:00,874 --> 05:39:02,008
How do we find out the

4172
05:39:02,008 --> 05:39:02,676
Information?

4173
05:39:02,676 --> 05:39:04,778
The first thing we did was

4174
05:39:04,778 --> 05:39:07,180
Review and identify the recent

4175
05:39:07,180 --> 05:39:09,149
Affordable housing development

4176
05:39:09,149 --> 05:39:10,550
Projects to get unit costs to

4177
05:39:10,550 --> 05:39:13,553
Find out the average low-income

4178
05:39:13,553 --> 05:39:15,622
Housing tax credit used and

4179
05:39:15,622 --> 05:39:17,691
Applied and bank financing used

4180
05:39:17,691 --> 05:39:20,560
Because those are the two types

4181
05:39:20,560 --> 05:39:23,630
Of reliable funding that go to

4182
05:39:23,630 --> 05:39:25,031
Affordable housing projects in

4183
05:39:25,031 --> 05:39:26,766
The state of california.

4184
05:39:26,766 --> 05:39:28,735
Financing, as you see is an

4185
05:39:28,735 --> 05:39:28,902
Art.

4186
05:39:28,902 --> 05:39:31,271
There are many different types

4187
05:39:31,271 --> 05:39:32,906
Of funding that developers use.

4188
05:39:32,906 --> 05:39:35,575
They are not the reliable ones.

4189
05:39:35,575 --> 05:39:37,444
They are different amounts,

4190
05:39:37,444 --> 05:39:46,520
Different subsets.

4191
05:39:46,520 --> 05:39:48,622
The source is the state

4192
05:39:48,622 --> 05:39:49,389
Treasurer officer.

4193
05:39:49,389 --> 05:39:53,326
They have an archive and include

4194
05:39:53,326 --> 05:39:55,162
Detailed costs and financing for

4195
05:39:55,162 --> 05:39:55,829
The projects.

4196
05:39:55,829 --> 05:39:57,364
We were able to get on the

4197
05:39:57,364 --> 05:39:59,533
System and pick out a series of

4198
05:39:59,533 --> 05:40:00,867
Projects in contra costa

4199
05:40:00,867 --> 05:40:01,701
County.

4200
05:40:01,701 --> 05:40:03,270
This is sort of what I was

4201
05:40:03,270 --> 05:40:04,237
Saying earlier.

4202
05:40:04,237 --> 05:40:08,241
This is an example for the

4203
05:40:08,241 --> 05:40:10,076
Plaza, 70 unit project with one

4204
05:40:10,076 --> 05:40:13,914
And two and three bedroom yuens,

4205
05:40:13,914 --> 05:40:16,149
Total cost $69.6 million.

4206
05:40:16,149 --> 05:40:19,619
You can see the rock solid

4207
05:40:19,619 --> 05:40:21,888
Sources, tax credit equity, 36%

4208
05:40:21,888 --> 05:40:24,191
Of the financing and bank

4209
05:40:24,191 --> 05:40:25,392
Financing was 6%.

4210
05:40:25,392 --> 05:40:28,128
You can see this is an example

4211
05:40:28,128 --> 05:40:32,098
Of financing out there whether

4212
05:40:32,098 --> 05:40:34,367
It can be found, deferred fees,

4213
05:40:34,367 --> 05:40:35,902
County funds or others.

4214
05:40:35,902 --> 05:40:37,871
All of them have subsets.

4215
05:40:37,871 --> 05:40:40,407
My point is to show that this is

4216
05:40:40,407 --> 05:40:42,676
An example of the fact that the

4217
05:40:42,676 --> 05:40:44,444
Two reliable sources of

4218
05:40:44,444 --> 05:40:46,613
Financing here only total 42% of

4219
05:40:46,613 --> 05:40:47,614
The total.

4220
05:40:47,614 --> 05:40:49,249
There’s the gap you are seeing.

4221
05:40:49,249 --> 05:40:51,251
The gap is having to be filled

4222
05:40:51,251 --> 05:40:54,488
With sources.

4223
05:40:54,488 --> 05:40:57,824
So, if we summarize the five

4224
05:40:57,824 --> 05:40:59,559
Products we selected from the

4225
05:40:59,559 --> 05:41:01,328
County, listed across the

4226
05:41:01,328 --> 05:41:02,129
Bottom.

4227
05:41:02,129 --> 05:41:03,930
Total cost of developing the

4228
05:41:03,930 --> 05:41:06,433
Five projects is $332 million.

4229
05:41:06,433 --> 05:41:09,269
Those included a total of 376

4230
05:41:09,269 --> 05:41:10,637
Units, so what is the average

4231
05:41:10,637 --> 05:41:14,241
Cost of those units is $882,000

4232
05:41:14,241 --> 05:41:14,774
Each.

4233
05:41:14,774 --> 05:41:16,877
Now, that’s higher than the

4234
05:41:16,877 --> 05:41:19,379
Figure I gave for antioch.

4235
05:41:19,379 --> 05:41:22,315
This spreads from walnut creek

4236
05:41:22,315 --> 05:41:26,153
To else el cerrito.

4237
05:41:26,153 --> 05:41:29,222
This is the countywide average.

4238
05:41:29,222 --> 05:41:31,191
We took the information I

4239
05:41:31,191 --> 05:41:33,493
Mentioned that we could find of

4240
05:41:33,493 --> 05:41:35,796
The 376 yuens, we found out

4241
05:41:35,796 --> 05:41:47,707
Through the state treasurer,

4242
05:41:47,707 --> 05:41:51,745
$50,500,000 bank financing and

4243
05:41:51,745 --> 05:41:53,580
$128,500,000 in federal tax

4244
05:41:53,580 --> 05:41:57,284
Credits used ajing out to

4245
05:41:57,284 --> 05:41:58,952
$342,000 a unit.

4246
05:41:58,952 --> 05:42:02,355
Once again, for the countywide,

4247
05:42:02,355 --> 05:42:06,726
We found $882,000 to build a

4248
05:42:06,726 --> 05:42:11,331
Unit, subtract $134,000 in bank

4249
05:42:11,331 --> 05:42:12,299
Financing, $342,000 in tax

4250
05:42:12,299 --> 05:42:23,043
Credits and a gap of $406,000,

4251
05:42:23,043 --> 05:42:25,011
46.02% of average cost.

4252
05:42:25,011 --> 05:42:26,880
We need to apply that to

4253
05:42:26,880 --> 05:42:27,747
Antioch.

4254
05:42:27,747 --> 05:42:31,151
We modeled a conceptual housing

4255
05:42:31,151 --> 05:42:32,719
Model here which is something we

4256
05:42:32,719 --> 05:42:35,088
Did in the feasibility

4257
05:42:35,088 --> 05:42:35,856
Analysis.

4258
05:42:35,856 --> 05:42:37,157
Then we calculated the

4259
05:42:37,157 --> 05:42:39,693
Development cost.

4260
05:42:39,693 --> 05:42:43,296
It includes the tailored units,

4261
05:42:43,296 --> 05:42:45,932
Impact fees, soft costs, etc.

4262
05:42:45,932 --> 05:42:48,969
We found that unit would cost

4263
05:42:48,969 --> 05:42:49,769
$36 million.

4264
05:42:49,769 --> 05:42:55,809
That equates to $440,000 less

4265
05:42:55,809 --> 05:42:58,111
Than $880,000 countywide.

4266
05:42:58,111 --> 05:43:01,214
We calculated the financing gap,

4267
05:43:01,214 --> 05:43:04,885
Applied the 46.02 ratio to the

4268
05:43:04,885 --> 05:43:11,758
Total and got $202,500 financing

4269
05:43:11,758 --> 05:43:15,195
Gap.

4270
05:43:15,195 --> 05:43:17,497
We are aware you need

4271
05:43:17,497 --> 05:43:19,332
Information from the ground.

4272
05:43:19,332 --> 05:43:21,234
First thing we did with the

4273
05:43:21,234 --> 05:43:23,537
Conclusions is take them to the

4274
05:43:23,537 --> 05:43:25,372
Affordable housing developers.

4275
05:43:25,372 --> 05:43:28,642
We got great insight from eden

4276
05:43:28,642 --> 05:43:29,109
Housing.

4277
05:43:29,109 --> 05:43:30,544
I should mention the numbers I

4278
05:43:30,544 --> 05:43:33,046
Gave you reflected their input

4279
05:43:33,046 --> 05:43:33,814
Already.

4280
05:43:33,814 --> 05:43:35,649
We took our numbers to the

4281
05:43:35,649 --> 05:43:36,950
Developers and what we heard

4282
05:43:36,950 --> 05:43:38,752
From the first gentleman, you

4283
05:43:38,752 --> 05:43:41,488
Need to increase your per unit

4284
05:43:41,488 --> 05:43:43,890
Cost because financing costs,

4285
05:43:43,890 --> 05:43:45,425
City blue jackets and design

4286
05:43:45,425 --> 05:43:47,828
Costs are boosting up now.

4287
05:43:47,828 --> 05:43:51,431
Our original number was less

4288
05:43:51,431 --> 05:43:53,400
Than $440,000, and we increased

4289
05:43:53,400 --> 05:43:57,137
The costs, soft costs and legal

4290
05:43:57,137 --> 05:43:59,773
Fees based on input and heard

4291
05:43:59,773 --> 05:44:04,010
The same thing from cypress

4292
05:44:04,010 --> 05:44:06,213
Saying we might have estimated

4293
05:44:06,213 --> 05:44:07,447
The soft costs.

4294
05:44:07,447 --> 05:44:08,882
We increased them.

4295
05:44:08,882 --> 05:44:11,918
Both developers felt the inlieu

4296
05:44:11,918 --> 05:44:14,921
Fee and ratio was reasonable and

4297
05:44:14,921 --> 05:44:17,090
To quote the gentleman, this

4298
05:44:17,090 --> 05:44:21,928
Will go a long way helping the

4299
05:44:21,928 --> 05:44:23,563
Housing developer.

4300
05:44:23,563 --> 05:44:26,399
We got good insight on the in

4301
05:44:26,399 --> 05:44:28,468
Lieu fee increased based on the

4302
05:44:28,468 --> 05:44:31,004
Increases of soft costs they

4303
05:44:31,004 --> 05:44:31,538
Mentioned.

4304
05:44:31,538 --> 05:44:35,475
This was vetted by those that

4305
05:44:35,475 --> 05:44:38,211
Practice development.

4306
05:44:38,211 --> 05:44:40,180
Now, the inclusionary housing

4307
05:44:40,180 --> 05:44:41,715
Trust fund.

4308
05:44:41,715 --> 05:44:43,683
Every city that collects fees

4309
05:44:43,683 --> 05:44:46,653
Need a place to put it, the idea

4310
05:44:46,653 --> 05:44:49,723
That it needs to go to the

4311
05:44:49,723 --> 05:44:51,224
Prioritization of affordable

4312
05:44:51,224 --> 05:44:52,058
Housing.

4313
05:44:52,058 --> 05:44:54,060
Every housing trust fund needs

4314
05:44:54,060 --> 05:44:58,565
To be letted led by a council

4315
05:44:58,565 --> 05:45:02,936
Approved set of administrative

4316
05:45:02,936 --> 05:45:04,037
Guidelines.

4317
05:45:04,037 --> 05:45:06,173
They are to assist in the

4318
05:45:06,173 --> 05:45:08,542
Creation and preservation of

4319
05:45:08,542 --> 05:45:09,943
Affordable housing in the city

4320
05:45:09,943 --> 05:45:14,748
Of antioch for low, moderate and

4321
05:45:14,748 --> 05:45:17,117
Moderate low income households

4322
05:45:17,117 --> 05:45:19,252
And distribution uses of the

4323
05:45:19,252 --> 05:45:21,555
Fees, creating affordable units

4324
05:45:21,555 --> 05:45:24,925
Being the top.

4325
05:45:24,925 --> 05:45:26,393
Assistance with rehabilitation

4326
05:45:26,393 --> 05:45:27,461
Programs, conversion of market

4327
05:45:27,461 --> 05:45:29,329
Rate units and supporting the

4328
05:45:29,329 --> 05:45:32,399
Construction of adus, by their

4329
05:45:32,399 --> 05:45:34,100
Very nature affordable.

4330
05:45:34,100 --> 05:45:35,368
Just a few of the distributions

4331
05:45:35,368 --> 05:45:40,607
And uses.

4332
05:45:40,607 --> 05:45:43,443
To remind you what we heard

4333
05:45:43,443 --> 05:45:44,544
February 4th from the planning

4334
05:45:44,544 --> 05:45:49,349
Commission, a 4 will 4-0

4335
05:45:49,349 --> 05:45:50,917
Recommendation that the city

4336
05:45:50,917 --> 05:45:52,686
Adopt the iho.

4337
05:45:52,686 --> 05:45:54,421
There were questions, the first

4338
05:45:54,421 --> 05:45:56,723
Being could it be written into

4339
05:45:56,723 --> 05:46:00,861
The ordinance that

4340
05:46:00,861 --> 05:46:02,729
Prioritization be given to

4341
05:46:02,729 --> 05:46:04,364
Antioch residents for the

4342
05:46:04,364 --> 05:46:05,932
Affordable units?

4343
05:46:05,932 --> 05:46:08,135
There is conflicts.

4344
05:46:08,135 --> 05:46:10,203
I did research with my contact

4345
05:46:10,203 --> 05:46:18,311
At mtc and the city did its own

4346
05:46:18,311 --> 05:46:22,449
Research.

4347
05:46:22,449 --> 05:46:35,328
I’m sorry.

4348
05:46:35,328 --> 05:46:37,631
There was the potential for

4349
05:46:37,631 --> 05:46:40,033
Conflict with state fair housing

4350
05:46:40,033 --> 05:46:41,134
Laws.

4351
05:46:41,134 --> 05:46:42,435
Staff and myself felt the

4352
05:46:42,435 --> 05:46:44,304
Potential liabilities would out

4353
05:46:44,304 --> 05:46:46,273
Way the benefits given the

4354
05:46:46,273 --> 05:46:47,040
Conflicts.

4355
05:46:47,040 --> 05:46:50,744
That was born out by mtc and

4356
05:46:50,744 --> 05:46:53,847
Their housing experts so staff

4357
05:46:53,847 --> 05:46:54,581
Didn’t recommend it.

4358
05:46:54,581 --> 05:46:58,418
There was another request to

4359
05:46:58,418 --> 05:47:00,253
Review the preference for local

4360
05:47:00,253 --> 05:47:00,921
Unions.

4361
05:47:00,921 --> 05:47:03,323
This goes back to potential

4362
05:47:03,323 --> 05:47:05,859
Conflicts with existing laws,

4363
05:47:05,859 --> 05:47:07,627
Labor relation act, state

4364
05:47:07,627 --> 05:47:10,197
Housing element law and zoning

4365
05:47:10,197 --> 05:47:12,165
Authority all contain limits or

4366
05:47:12,165 --> 05:47:14,201
Barriers to that type of

4367
05:47:14,201 --> 05:47:14,501
Preference.

4368
05:47:14,501 --> 05:47:17,938
This does not reflect staff lack

4369
05:47:17,938 --> 05:47:20,674
Of prioritization of local

4370
05:47:20,674 --> 05:47:21,775
Unions.

4371
05:47:21,775 --> 05:47:24,511
It’s to keep the ordinance

4372
05:47:24,511 --> 05:47:28,215
Conflict free and on legal

4373
05:47:28,215 --> 05:47:30,984
Ground.

4374
05:47:30,984 --> 05:47:32,619
Planning commission asked that

4375
05:47:32,619 --> 05:47:35,889
We look at ensuring that the

4376
05:47:35,889 --> 05:47:39,192
Housing trust fund prioritizes

4377
05:47:39,192 --> 05:47:40,494
Funding for housing

4378
05:47:40,494 --> 05:47:41,161
Development.

4379
05:47:41,161 --> 05:47:44,097
Staff clarified the admin

4380
05:47:44,097 --> 05:47:45,765
Guidelines provides the

4381
05:47:45,765 --> 05:47:48,001
Guidelines for how the funds are

4382
05:47:48,001 --> 05:47:50,704
Spent and allow them to be spent

4383
05:47:50,704 --> 05:47:53,974
Strategically on a variety of

4384
05:47:53,974 --> 05:47:54,174
Needs.

4385
05:47:54,174 --> 05:47:56,143
The guidelines are approved by

4386
05:47:56,143 --> 05:47:57,477
You the council and the

4387
05:47:57,477 --> 05:48:01,548
Assumption is that the funds

4388
05:48:01,548 --> 05:48:02,649
Prioritize affordable housing

4389
05:48:02,649 --> 05:48:04,084
Development.

4390
05:48:04,084 --> 05:48:05,819
Planning commission also had a

4391
05:48:05,819 --> 05:48:08,021
Valid question about

4392
05:48:08,021 --> 05:48:09,556
Prioritizing extremely low

4393
05:48:09,556 --> 05:48:10,557
Income households.

4394
05:48:10,557 --> 05:48:12,592
There is a strange structural

4395
05:48:12,592 --> 05:48:14,828
Issue with the state with hcd

4396
05:48:14,828 --> 05:48:16,696
And eli.

4397
05:48:16,696 --> 05:48:19,399
is, if you look directly

4398
05:48:19,399 --> 05:48:21,935
Into the state housing building

4399
05:48:21,935 --> 05:48:24,337
Block website, eli is considered

4400
05:48:24,337 --> 05:48:27,073
A subset of low income.

4401
05:48:27,073 --> 05:48:29,042
Whereas the separation between

4402
05:48:29,042 --> 05:48:30,911
The income levels is

4403
05:48:30,911 --> 05:48:36,483
Traditionally a break, eli is

4404
05:48:36,483 --> 05:48:39,252
Zero to 30 within zero to 50 of

4405
05:48:39,252 --> 05:48:41,021
Eli, which is why we don’t see

4406
05:48:41,021 --> 05:48:44,424
It on the arena targets.

4407
05:48:44,424 --> 05:48:49,329
Hcd does not pry prioritize,

4408
05:48:49,329 --> 05:48:52,299
Cities are asked to study eli in

4409
05:48:52,299 --> 05:48:53,500
The housing units.

4410
05:48:53,500 --> 05:48:58,572
They are not part of rena, by

4411
05:48:58,572 --> 05:49:01,308
Including eli in the housing

4412
05:49:01,308 --> 05:49:03,577
Ordinance itself, it brings us

4413
05:49:03,577 --> 05:49:05,412
Out of lock step with the

4414
05:49:05,412 --> 05:49:06,813
Progress requested by the state

4415
05:49:06,813 --> 05:49:09,449
And keeping it consistent with

4416
05:49:09,449 --> 05:49:10,217
The housing element.

4417
05:49:10,217 --> 05:49:12,986
It is simply that the income

4418
05:49:12,986 --> 05:49:16,156
Range is within vli.

4419
05:49:16,156 --> 05:49:20,327
Finally, the pc asked if we

4420
05:49:20,327 --> 05:49:23,463
Could audit the trust fund first

4421
05:49:23,463 --> 05:49:24,998
Quarter of the year and each

4422
05:49:24,998 --> 05:49:27,734
Every two years here after to

4423
05:49:27,734 --> 05:49:28,935
Determine the percentage of

4424
05:49:28,935 --> 05:49:31,338
Projects using in-lieu fees.

4425
05:49:31,338 --> 05:49:32,973
In other words, is this

4426
05:49:32,973 --> 05:49:34,941
Working?

4427
05:49:34,941 --> 05:49:36,143
Clearly, city council can

4428
05:49:36,143 --> 05:49:41,515
Include this in the draft or

4429
05:49:41,515 --> 05:49:42,816
Housing trust fund guidelines

4430
05:49:42,816 --> 05:49:45,318
Itself.

4431
05:49:45,318 --> 05:49:47,521
All were good points to a well

4432
05:49:47,521 --> 05:49:48,488
Tuned planning commission.

4433
05:49:48,488 --> 05:49:50,590
Again, this goes back to the

4434
05:49:50,590 --> 05:49:52,092
First slide recommended action

4435
05:49:52,092 --> 05:49:54,961
By staff introduced by total

4436
05:49:54,961 --> 05:49:58,198
Only and waived the first

4437
05:49:58,198 --> 05:50:00,400
Reading amending the title ix

4438
05:50:00,400 --> 05:50:03,136
With the components of the iho I

4439
05:50:03,136 --> 05:50:05,572
Have gone over, adopt the

4440
05:50:05,572 --> 05:50:07,674
Resolution establishing a trust

4441
05:50:07,674 --> 05:50:10,443
Fund, the place to put the

4442
05:50:10,443 --> 05:50:14,147
In-lieu fees and adopting a

4443
05:50:14,147 --> 05:50:16,450
Resolution to add the in-lieu

4444
05:50:16,450 --> 05:50:20,253
Fee anding the affordable

4445

Housing compliance monitoring

4446
05:50:21,388 --> 05:50:21,888
Fee.

4447
05:50:21,888 --> 05:50:23,123
That is the end of my

4448
05:50:23,123 --> 05:50:24,224
Presentation.

4449
05:50:24,224 --> 05:50:25,225
I’m here to answer questions.

4450
05:50:25,225 --> 05:50:26,626

Right, thank you.

This is a public hearing.

4453
05:50:29,229 --> 05:50:33,967
I’m going to open it right now.

4454
05:50:33,967 --> 05:50:37,871
And do we have a proponent for

4455
05:50:37,871 --> 05:50:50,250
The project?

4456
05:50:50,250 --> 05:50:53,753
>> I would like to make a motion

4457
05:50:53,753 --> 05:50:56,790

Do we have a second?

4463
05:51:07,701 --> 05:51:14,107
We are not going to get there.

4464
05:51:14,107 --> 05:51:18,178
It means -- we can finish

4465
05:51:18,178 --> 05:51:18,512
Earlier.

4466
05:51:18,512 --> 05:51:21,581

Great.

4482

4502
05:52:56,343 --> 05:52:58,211
Ensuring opportunity campaign to

4503
05:52:58,211 --> 05:53:00,046
End poverty in contra costa

4504
05:53:00,046 --> 05:53:01,648
County, hope solutions, lift up

4505
05:53:01,648 --> 05:53:04,885
Contra costa county, monument

4506
05:53:04,885 --> 05:53:06,953
Impact, multi-faith action

4507
05:53:06,953 --> 05:53:09,689
Coalition, public advocates,

4508
05:53:09,689 --> 05:53:12,859
Rising juntos.

4509
05:53:12,859 --> 05:53:15,028
That’s a coalition that brings

4510
05:53:15,028 --> 05:53:18,098
Years of experience working on

4511
05:53:18,098 --> 05:53:21,301
Inclusionary housing and faith

4512
05:53:21,301 --> 05:53:23,036
Leaders, service providers,

4513
05:53:23,036 --> 05:53:26,473
Housing developers and those

4514
05:53:26,473 --> 05:53:29,342
Impacted by the housing

4515
05:53:29,342 --> 05:53:29,810
Affordability crisis.

4516
05:53:29,810 --> 05:53:34,614
We arewe know this is a

4517
05:53:34,614 --> 05:53:36,149
Necessary tool for antioch to

4518
05:53:36,149 --> 05:53:38,885
Use to address the affordability

4519
05:53:38,885 --> 05:53:40,754
Crisis in the city and region.

4520
05:53:40,754 --> 05:53:42,422
We know it’s an appropriate

4521
05:53:42,422 --> 05:53:42,756
Tool.

4522
05:53:42,756 --> 05:53:45,025
We are a growing city with

4523
05:53:45,025 --> 05:53:46,693
Plentiful opportunities for

4524
05:53:46,693 --> 05:53:46,993
Development.

4525
05:53:46,993 --> 05:53:49,329
That is the exact climate in

4526
05:53:49,329 --> 05:53:51,498
Which you want to implement a

4527
05:53:51,498 --> 05:53:52,599
Housing ordinance.

4528
05:53:52,599 --> 05:53:55,335
We know new housing is being

4529
05:53:55,335 --> 05:53:59,573
Built, but not enough housing is

4530
05:53:59,573 --> 05:54:02,175
Being built targeting low income

4531
05:54:02,175 --> 05:54:02,776
Residents in antioch.

4532
05:54:02,776 --> 05:54:04,845
I was looking at the past two

4533
05:54:04,845 --> 05:54:07,247
Years of building permits in

4534
05:54:07,247 --> 05:54:07,814
Antioch.

4535
05:54:07,814 --> 05:54:10,951
There were 740 homes permitted,

4536
05:54:10,951 --> 05:54:14,054
But only 50 of those were

4537
05:54:14,054 --> 05:54:16,790
Designated low and low income

4538
05:54:16,790 --> 05:54:19,092
Residents, many were adus,

4539
05:54:19,092 --> 05:54:21,061
Guessing that they are low

4540
05:54:21,061 --> 05:54:21,595
Income housing.

4541
05:54:21,595 --> 05:54:23,463
We don’t have a way of

4542
05:54:23,463 --> 05:54:23,864
Verifying.

4543
05:54:23,864 --> 05:54:28,135
They are not deed restricted not

4544
05:54:28,135 --> 05:54:29,136
Permanently affordable which is

4545
05:54:29,136 --> 05:54:31,505
Required by the iho.

4546
05:54:31,505 --> 05:54:32,539
We are building a lot.

4547
05:54:32,539 --> 05:54:34,941
We are not building enough for

4548
05:54:34,941 --> 05:54:37,878
Low income residents.

4549
05:54:37,878 --> 05:54:42,182
The iho would ensure not only we

4550
05:54:42,182 --> 05:54:44,084
Build affordable housing but

4551
05:54:44,084 --> 05:54:45,352
Throughout the city and not cost

4552
05:54:45,352 --> 05:54:47,621
The city money, wouldn’t require

4553
05:54:47,621 --> 05:54:51,658
Us to apply for more home key

4554
05:54:51,658 --> 05:54:52,793
Projects, though we should do

4555
05:54:52,793 --> 05:54:54,961
That, but wouldn’t take anything

4556
05:54:54,961 --> 05:54:56,930
Away from that.

4557
05:54:56,930 --> 05:54:58,999
Instead, it asks developers who

4558
05:54:58,999 --> 05:55:00,801
Are coming and going to profit

4559
05:55:00,801 --> 05:55:02,869
And continue to profit in

4560
05:55:02,869 --> 05:55:05,806
Antioch to contribute and

4561
05:55:05,806 --> 05:55:07,574
Dedicate some of their resources

4562
05:55:07,574 --> 05:55:10,577
Toward making sure all antioch

4563
05:55:10,577 --> 05:55:11,945
Residents have an affordable

4564
05:55:11,945 --> 05:55:13,246
Place to call home.

4565
05:55:13,246 --> 05:55:16,349
I want to emphasize this is a

4566
05:55:16,349 --> 05:55:17,017
Mainstream tool.

4567
05:55:17,017 --> 05:55:19,085
Antioch is not the first city,

4568
05:55:19,085 --> 05:55:23,256
Won’t be going out on a limb

4569
05:55:23,256 --> 05:55:24,024
Adopting this.

4570
05:55:24,024 --> 05:55:26,259
14 of 19 jurisdictions in contra

4571
05:55:26,259 --> 05:55:29,029
Costa county have inclusionary

4572
05:55:29,029 --> 05:55:29,396
Ordinances.

4573
05:55:29,396 --> 05:55:31,698
We are on solid ground here,

4574
05:55:31,698 --> 05:55:33,967
Taking a well trodden path that

4575
05:55:33,967 --> 05:55:36,403
Works well and works well for

4576
05:55:36,403 --> 05:55:38,171
Other jurisdictions.

4577
05:55:38,171 --> 05:55:39,573
The coalition has two

4578
05:55:39,573 --> 05:55:41,341
Recommendations for how the

4579
05:55:41,341 --> 05:55:42,642
Ordinance could be slightly

4580
05:55:42,642 --> 05:55:43,176
Stronger.

4581
05:55:43,176 --> 05:55:48,115
One is we suggest a 20%

4582
05:55:48,115 --> 05:55:49,249
Inclusionary rate.

4583
05:55:49,249 --> 05:55:51,218
15% is a step in the right

4584
05:55:51,218 --> 05:55:52,419
Direction.

4585
05:55:52,419 --> 05:55:55,255
60% of antioch residents spent

4586
05:55:55,255 --> 05:55:59,192
More than 30% of their income on

4587
05:55:59,192 --> 05:55:59,392
Rent.

4588
05:55:59,392 --> 05:56:03,063
Another 2/3 are designated at

4589
05:56:03,063 --> 05:56:06,566
Risk of displaiment or

4590
05:56:06,566 --> 05:56:07,200
Gentrification.

4591
05:56:07,200 --> 05:56:09,936
The risk of not building enough

4592
05:56:09,936 --> 05:56:11,471
Affordable housing is real,

4593
05:56:11,471 --> 05:56:12,372
Present.

4594
05:56:12,372 --> 05:56:14,774
For two years in a row antioch

4595
05:56:14,774 --> 05:56:17,911
Had the highest number of

4596
05:56:17,911 --> 05:56:18,912
Unhoused individuals in the

4597
05:56:18,912 --> 05:56:19,279
County.

4598
05:56:19,279 --> 05:56:21,548
We want to do everything we can

4599
05:56:21,548 --> 05:56:23,517
To meet the moment, meet the

4600
05:56:23,517 --> 05:56:24,284
Urgency.

4601
05:56:24,284 --> 05:56:25,385
The second recommendation we

4602
05:56:25,385 --> 05:56:26,686
Have we believe the ordinance

4603
05:56:26,686 --> 05:56:29,523
Can do more to target low income

4604
05:56:29,523 --> 05:56:30,357
Individuals.

4605
05:56:30,357 --> 05:56:32,926
That’s a subcategory of low

4606
05:56:32,926 --> 05:56:34,861
Income the consultant team

4607
05:56:34,861 --> 05:56:35,662
Mentioned.

4608
05:56:35,662 --> 05:56:38,165
What we expect in the

4609
05:56:38,165 --> 05:56:40,066
Inclusionary housing because we

4610
05:56:40,066 --> 05:56:42,435
Are asking for profit builders

4611
05:56:42,435 --> 05:56:43,737
To build at the top of the

4612
05:56:43,737 --> 05:56:44,571
Range.

4613
05:56:44,571 --> 05:56:46,573
They build the most expensive

4614
05:56:46,573 --> 05:56:48,775
Housing that qualifies for low

4615
05:56:48,775 --> 05:56:49,676
Income residents.

4616
05:56:49,676 --> 05:56:51,611
That’s a good step and we

4617
05:56:51,611 --> 05:56:57,017
Encourage that, but to reach

4618
05:56:57,017 --> 05:56:58,985
Extremely low income community

4619
05:56:58,985 --> 05:57:02,689
Members, we need specificity.

4620
05:57:02,689 --> 05:57:05,892
Two ways to achieve that, one a

4621
05:57:05,892 --> 05:57:08,395
Certain requirement, 5% of the

4622
05:57:08,395 --> 05:57:10,797
Affordable homes have to be

4623
05:57:10,797 --> 05:57:12,666
Affordable to extremely low

4624
05:57:12,666 --> 05:57:13,133
Income individuals.

4625
05:57:13,133 --> 05:57:16,069
The other side, the alternative

4626
05:57:16,069 --> 05:57:17,270
Compliance, in lieu fee.

4627
05:57:17,270 --> 05:57:19,806
Those fees are used by

4628
05:57:19,806 --> 05:57:21,341
Affordable housing developers

4629
05:57:21,341 --> 05:57:24,077
That specialize in reaching low

4630
05:57:24,077 --> 05:57:25,512
Income individuals.

4631
05:57:25,512 --> 05:57:28,782
We suggest to include the 5% low

4632
05:57:28,782 --> 05:57:30,984
Income requirement or create an

4633
05:57:30,984 --> 05:57:34,154
Addition to the in lieu fee a

4634
05:57:34,154 --> 05:57:37,124
Land donation option where

4635
05:57:37,124 --> 05:57:39,059
Developers could contribute to

4636
05:57:39,059 --> 05:57:41,661
The in lieu fee rather than in

4637
05:57:41,661 --> 05:57:43,130
Cash with land.

4638
05:57:43,130 --> 05:57:45,198
That provides an option for an

4639
05:57:45,198 --> 05:57:49,469
Affordable housing developer to

4640
05:57:49,469 --> 05:57:52,172
Use that land to reach low

4641
05:57:52,172 --> 05:57:52,772
Income individuals.

4642
05:57:52,772 --> 05:57:55,375
Those are two recommendations.

4643
05:57:55,375 --> 05:57:56,710
Overall we are appreciative of

4644
05:57:56,710 --> 05:57:58,979
The city, staff, consultants

4645
05:57:58,979 --> 05:57:59,446
Have done.

4646
05:57:59,446 --> 05:58:02,215
We are on a strong path.

4647
05:58:02,215 --> 05:58:04,584
There are various objections

4648
05:58:04,584 --> 05:58:06,119
Whether they are legal or for

4649
05:58:06,119 --> 05:58:08,522
The feasibility of the

4650
05:58:08,522 --> 05:58:08,822
Developers.

4651
05:58:08,822 --> 05:58:10,257
We know staff has addressed

4652
05:58:10,257 --> 05:58:11,224
Those.

4653
05:58:11,224 --> 05:58:14,427
Staff has looked at legality,

4654
05:58:14,427 --> 05:58:17,297
Looked at feasibility and this

4655
05:58:17,297 --> 05:58:19,232
Will not defer development in

4656
05:58:19,232 --> 05:58:19,900
Antioch.

4657
05:58:19,900 --> 05:58:21,968
We are excited to see the city

4658
05:58:21,968 --> 05:58:24,070
Move forward with this step and

4659
05:58:24,070 --> 05:58:26,606
Hopeful to move forward with the

4660
05:58:26,606 --> 05:58:27,808
Strongest most impactful

4661
05:58:27,808 --> 05:58:28,675
Ordinance we can.

4662
05:58:28,675 --> 05:58:29,042
Thank you.

4663
05:58:29,042 --> 05:58:30,110
>> mayor ron bernal: thank

4664
05:58:30,110 --> 05:58:31,311
You.

4665
05:58:31,311 --> 05:58:32,712
Do we have anyone to speak in

4666
05:58:32,712 --> 05:58:36,049
Opposition to the ordinance?

4667
05:58:36,049 --> 05:58:39,686
>> clerk: mr. Becker.

4668
05:58:39,686 --> 05:58:41,588
>> mayor ron bernal: speaking

4669
05:58:41,588 --> 05:58:59,673
In opposition to the ordinance?

4670
05:58:59,673 --> 05:59:02,709
>> I hadn’t planned on ten

4671
05:59:02,709 --> 05:59:03,243
Minutes.

4672
05:59:03,243 --> 05:59:05,345
I’ll try not to use it all.

4673
05:59:05,345 --> 05:59:07,314
I didn’t prepare for that.

4674
05:59:07,314 --> 05:59:13,286
Thank you for allowing me to

4675
05:59:13,286 --> 05:59:15,422
Speak.

4676
05:59:15,422 --> 05:59:18,625
The gentleman -- you are being

4677
05:59:18,625 --> 05:59:19,159
Misled.

4678
05:59:19,159 --> 05:59:23,196
What you are being told is

4679
05:59:23,196 --> 05:59:23,897
Untrue.

4680
05:59:23,897 --> 05:59:28,001
They are not asking developers

4681
05:59:28,001 --> 05:59:28,735
To contribute.

4682
05:59:28,735 --> 05:59:31,404
They are requiring them to

4683
05:59:31,404 --> 05:59:32,038
Contribute.

4684
05:59:32,038 --> 05:59:36,376
There is a big difference.

4685
05:59:36,376 --> 05:59:38,145
Let’s talk about the law.

4686
05:59:38,145 --> 05:59:41,281
I’m not an attorney.

4687
05:59:41,281 --> 05:59:43,483
I could bring one down here from

4688
05:59:43,483 --> 05:59:45,185
The pacific legal foundation if

4689
05:59:45,185 --> 05:59:46,753
You would like to hear from

4690
05:59:46,753 --> 05:59:46,987
Them.

4691
05:59:46,987 --> 05:59:49,256
They are going back to court.

4692
05:59:49,256 --> 05:59:50,824
They are going to the united

4693
05:59:50,824 --> 05:59:51,725
States supreme court.

4694
05:59:51,725 --> 05:59:54,394
At least one of you up there

4695
05:59:54,394 --> 05:59:56,596
Understands federalism and

4696
05:59:56,596 --> 05:59:58,799
Understands that when the united

4697
05:59:58,799 --> 06:00:00,767
States supreme court makes a

4698
06:00:00,767 --> 06:00:03,937
Ruling, as our current president

4699
06:00:03,937 --> 06:00:07,007
Recently said, it’s not an

4700
06:00:07,007 --> 06:00:07,674
Unfortunate event.

4701
06:00:07,674 --> 06:00:09,075
It’s a ruling.

4702
06:00:09,075 --> 06:00:09,976
It’s a command.

4703
06:00:09,976 --> 06:00:19,319
It is the law.

4704
06:00:19,319 --> 06:00:23,723
Mr. Sykes went to court and the

4705
06:00:23,723 --> 06:00:26,393
Ruling is -- that the fees

4706
06:00:26,393 --> 06:00:28,995
Charged by either administration

4707
06:00:28,995 --> 06:00:33,366
Or by legislation have to

4708
06:00:33,366 --> 06:00:37,437
Directly affect what burdens

4709
06:00:37,437 --> 06:00:40,273
Occur at the municipal level by

4710
06:00:40,273 --> 06:00:42,175
That development.

4711
06:00:42,175 --> 06:00:44,678
These individuals are talking

4712
06:00:44,678 --> 06:00:47,280
About all of the town, all of

4713
06:00:47,280 --> 06:00:49,716
The people that need housing.

4714
06:00:49,716 --> 06:00:52,986
Now, if you want to have a

4715
06:00:52,986 --> 06:00:53,820
Discussion about the importance

4716
06:00:53,820 --> 06:00:57,190
Of housing people, low income

4717
06:00:57,190 --> 06:01:01,161
People and extremely low income

4718
06:01:01,161 --> 06:01:02,963
People, that is definitely a

4719
06:01:02,963 --> 06:01:05,031
Conversation worth having, and I

4720
06:01:05,031 --> 06:01:06,666
Would be glad to discuss that,

4721
06:01:06,666 --> 06:01:10,403
But this is not the way.

4722
06:01:10,403 --> 06:01:13,573
This is a violation of the fifth

4723
06:01:13,573 --> 06:01:15,642
Amendment of the constitution

4724
06:01:15,642 --> 06:01:18,612
And the 14th amendment of the

4725
06:01:18,612 --> 06:01:19,613
Constitution.

4726
06:01:19,613 --> 06:01:22,349
It does not offer due process,

4727
06:01:22,349 --> 06:01:27,354
And it is an illegal taking.

4728
06:01:27,354 --> 06:01:30,190
Now, the united states supreme

4729
06:01:30,190 --> 06:01:36,129
Court moves very slowly.

4730
06:01:36,129 --> 06:01:38,064
Mr. Seitz took six years to get

4731
06:01:38,064 --> 06:01:39,299
There the first time.

4732
06:01:39,299 --> 06:01:42,369
I assure you, that within the

4733
06:01:42,369 --> 06:01:45,105
Future, you will see that

4734
06:01:45,105 --> 06:01:49,042
Inclusionary housing in which

4735
06:01:49,042 --> 06:01:51,745
Private property owners -- they

4736
06:01:51,745 --> 06:01:55,315
Call them developers -- they are

4737
06:01:55,315 --> 06:01:56,750
Private property owners.

4738
06:01:56,750 --> 06:01:58,151
You are extracting money from

4739
06:01:58,151 --> 06:01:58,718
Them.

4740
06:01:58,718 --> 06:02:03,557
It basically comes down to

4741
06:02:03,557 --> 06:02:04,291
Municipal extortion.

4742
06:02:04,291 --> 06:02:07,327
We need to fix the social

4743
06:02:07,327 --> 06:02:08,495
Problem, and we need your

4744
06:02:08,495 --> 06:02:10,363
Money.

4745
06:02:10,363 --> 06:02:11,965
No.

4746
06:02:11,965 --> 06:02:13,300
It’s wrong.

4747
06:02:13,300 --> 06:02:17,337
It’s fundamentally wrong.

4748
06:02:17,337 --> 06:02:20,507
This country is a republic.

4749
06:02:20,507 --> 06:02:24,111
It was based on democracy and

4750
06:02:24,111 --> 06:02:24,778
Capitalism.

4751
06:02:24,778 --> 06:02:26,313
Not socialism.

4752
06:02:26,313 --> 06:02:29,382
When you take people’s property,

4753
06:02:29,382 --> 06:02:32,552
When you extract money from them

4754
06:02:32,552 --> 06:02:34,721
Illegally, they are entitled to

4755
06:02:34,721 --> 06:02:37,023
Compensation.

4756
06:02:37,023 --> 06:02:41,561
Now, I have laid down a paper

4757
06:02:41,561 --> 06:02:41,761
Trail.

4758
06:02:41,761 --> 06:02:43,697
I have spoken here.

4759
06:02:43,697 --> 06:02:45,332
I have written to you.

4760
06:02:45,332 --> 06:02:47,968
I have outlined my concerns.

4761
06:02:47,968 --> 06:02:50,804
I don’t expect you to side with

4762
06:02:50,804 --> 06:02:55,308
Me or the law.

4763
06:02:55,308 --> 06:02:57,778
In actuality, the california

4764
06:02:57,778 --> 06:02:59,246
Supreme court tried to do a

4765
06:02:59,246 --> 06:03:01,114
Workaround on the united states

4766
06:03:01,114 --> 06:03:03,450
Supreme court decision.

4767
06:03:03,450 --> 06:03:05,619
That’s why mr. Seitz and the

4768
06:03:05,619 --> 06:03:07,154
Pacific legal foundation are

4769
06:03:07,154 --> 06:03:09,790
Going back to court.

4770
06:03:09,790 --> 06:03:13,326
The gentleman who prepared this

4771
06:03:13,326 --> 06:03:15,128
Report which should be round

4772
06:03:15,128 --> 06:03:16,596
Filed, only quotes california

4773
06:03:16,596 --> 06:03:21,301
Law and nothing past -- based on

4774
06:03:21,301 --> 06:03:24,037
My recollection, past 2017.

4775
06:03:24,037 --> 06:03:28,508
The seitz case was decided in

4776
06:03:28,508 --> 06:03:29,209
2024.

4777
06:03:29,209 --> 06:03:31,611
It may take him another six

4778
06:03:31,611 --> 06:03:33,246
Years to get a decision.

4779
06:03:33,246 --> 06:03:39,286
Someone is going to step forward

4780
06:03:39,286 --> 06:03:43,190
To fight inclusionary housing.

4781
06:03:43,190 --> 06:03:46,927
Let’s talk about who actually

4782
06:03:46,927 --> 06:03:50,163
Pays the fee.

4783
06:03:50,163 --> 06:03:52,299
They sit there, and they stand

4784
06:03:52,299 --> 06:03:55,769
Up and tell you, well, the

4785
06:03:55,769 --> 06:03:57,304
Developer will pay it.

4786
06:03:57,304 --> 06:03:58,071
No, he won’t.

4787
06:03:58,071 --> 06:04:01,475
This is akin to a tariff.

4788
06:04:01,475 --> 06:04:03,877
They are going to charge the

4789
06:04:03,877 --> 06:04:05,512
Developer, and then all of the

4790
06:04:05,512 --> 06:04:07,481
Market rate homes -- they are

4791
06:04:07,481 --> 06:04:09,749
Going to divide up that cost and

4792
06:04:09,749 --> 06:04:10,750
Add it on top.

4793
06:04:10,750 --> 06:04:14,788
They are not going to eat

4794
06:04:14,788 --> 06:04:15,589
Millions of dollars.

4795
06:04:15,589 --> 06:04:17,224
I run a business.

4796
06:04:17,224 --> 06:04:19,092
I wouldn’t do it.

4797
06:04:19,092 --> 06:04:21,394
No reasonable capitalist would.

4798
06:04:21,394 --> 06:04:22,896
Who is actually going to pay

4799
06:04:22,896 --> 06:04:23,797
It?

4800
06:04:23,797 --> 06:04:25,332
The consumer.

4801
06:04:25,332 --> 06:04:27,434
The middle class person who has

4802
06:04:27,434 --> 06:04:29,736
Saved the money to buy their

4803
06:04:29,736 --> 06:04:31,805
First home because most buyers

4804
06:04:31,805 --> 06:04:36,209
In this town are first time

4805
06:04:36,209 --> 06:04:36,643
Buyers.

4806
06:04:36,643 --> 06:04:38,178
They are going to pay it.

4807
06:04:38,178 --> 06:04:41,481
Is that really fair?

4808
06:04:41,481 --> 06:04:43,049
Really?

4809
06:04:43,049 --> 06:04:45,318
Because I don’t think so.

4810
06:04:45,318 --> 06:04:48,288
It’s a great idea, but it’s

4811
06:04:48,288 --> 06:04:53,226
Being done incorrectly.

4812
06:04:53,226 --> 06:05:00,534
As I said, I don’t expect that

4813
06:05:00,534 --> 06:05:02,836
You will table this matter.

4814
06:05:02,836 --> 06:05:05,572
I expect that you will most

4815
06:05:05,572 --> 06:05:10,710
Likely approve it, but you are

4816
06:05:10,710 --> 06:05:12,913
On very tenuous ground, and if

4817
06:05:12,913 --> 06:05:15,949
You actually put together a

4818
06:05:15,949 --> 06:05:16,950
Trust fund where you have

4819
06:05:16,950 --> 06:05:18,718
Collected all of this money and

4820
06:05:18,718 --> 06:05:20,787
Someone sues you, and they want

4821
06:05:20,787 --> 06:05:24,691
Their money back, like the

4822
06:05:24,691 --> 06:05:28,361
Thousands of companies that want

4823
06:05:28,361 --> 06:05:31,097
Their tariff money back who have

4824
06:05:31,097 --> 06:05:33,433
Filed suit against the federal

4825
06:05:33,433 --> 06:05:34,534
Government, you are going to

4826
06:05:34,534 --> 06:05:36,770
Have to pay it back because you

4827
06:05:36,770 --> 06:05:38,572
Have been warned and the paper

4828
06:05:38,572 --> 06:05:41,508
Trail exists.

4829
06:05:41,508 --> 06:05:45,011
I suggest -- I request that you

4830
06:05:45,011 --> 06:05:45,979
Vote no.

4831
06:05:45,979 --> 06:05:48,849
Thank you for your your time.

4832
06:05:48,849 --> 06:05:50,917
>> mayor ron bernal: thank

4833
06:05:50,917 --> 06:05:51,451
You.

4834
06:05:51,451 --> 06:05:53,453
Do we have any public comment on

4835
06:05:53,453 --> 06:05:55,422
This item?

4836
06:05:55,422 --> 06:05:57,924
>> clerk: yes, anthony

4837
06:05:57,924 --> 06:06:02,095
Followed by mark and then pastor

Josie.

4840
06:06:10,670 --> 06:06:16,943
\hjosie.

4841
06:06:10,670 --> 06:06:16,943
>> mayor bernal, councilmembers,

4842
06:06:16,943 --> 06:06:18,745
I’m anthony carol, speaking on

4843
06:06:18,745 --> 06:06:21,982
Behalf of carpetters 162, 150

4844
06:06:21,982 --> 06:06:23,583
Working people in antioch and

4845
06:06:23,583 --> 06:06:25,185
Thousands more across contra

4846
06:06:25,185 --> 06:06:25,519
Costa county.

4847
06:06:25,519 --> 06:06:27,988
Over the past five years, the

4848
06:06:27,988 --> 06:06:30,056
Carpetters have been the out

4849
06:06:30,056 --> 06:06:33,894
Spoken and supportive voice

4850
06:06:33,894 --> 06:06:35,862
Prohousing policy out of the

4851
06:06:35,862 --> 06:06:37,364
Construction trades.

4852
06:06:37,364 --> 06:06:39,299
Our members are no strangers

4853
06:06:39,299 --> 06:06:39,966
Either.

4854
06:06:39,966 --> 06:06:41,902
It is our hope that this

4855
06:06:41,902 --> 06:06:44,538
Ordinance does well for the low

4856
06:06:44,538 --> 06:06:46,273
Income residents of antioch and

4857
06:06:46,273 --> 06:06:49,142
Generates new affordable housing

4858
06:06:49,142 --> 06:06:50,343
In the city.

4859
06:06:50,343 --> 06:06:53,180
Along with the housing ordinance

4860
06:06:53,180 --> 06:06:55,282
Is the trust fund slated to be

4861
06:06:55,282 --> 06:06:57,150
Created as part o of the

4862
06:06:57,150 --> 06:06:58,885
Policy.

4863

With in lieu fees, set, we are

Looking at potentially millions

4865
06:07:05,692 --> 06:07:08,428
Generated for new affordable

4866
06:07:08,428 --> 06:07:09,663
Housing generation.

4867
06:07:09,663 --> 06:07:11,998
The carpenters are in support

4868
06:07:11,998 --> 06:07:13,800
Over all but I’m here to ask you

4869
06:07:13,800 --> 06:07:16,002
To stay or continue the vote on

4870
06:07:16,002 --> 06:07:18,104
The trust fund to work with us

4871
06:07:18,104 --> 06:07:20,807
First to create a labor

4872
06:07:20,807 --> 06:07:22,375
Standards resolution that

4873
06:07:22,375 --> 06:07:25,779
Requires prevailing wages,

4874
06:07:25,779 --> 06:07:30,717
Healthcare expenditures and

4875
06:07:30,717 --> 06:07:32,686
Receiving funds from the housing

4876
06:07:32,686 --> 06:07:33,887
Trust fund.

4877
06:07:33,887 --> 06:07:38,358
The labor standards are crucial

4878
06:07:38,358 --> 06:07:40,994
To ensure funds don’t contribute

4879
06:07:40,994 --> 06:07:44,598
To exploitation faced by

4880
06:07:44,598 --> 06:07:50,170
Non-union kruck construction

4881
06:07:50,170 --> 06:07:51,938
Workers.

4882
06:07:51,938 --> 06:07:54,875
I want to be clear, this was a

4883
06:07:54,875 --> 06:07:55,742
Misunderstanding from the

4884
06:07:55,742 --> 06:07:56,510
Planning commission.

4885
06:07:56,510 --> 06:07:58,145
The resolution that we are

4886
06:07:58,145 --> 06:08:00,447
Proposing is not a mandate for

4887
06:08:00,447 --> 06:08:01,681
Union labor.

4888
06:08:01,681 --> 06:08:06,386
Lather, thisrather this is a

4889
06:08:06,386 --> 06:08:09,222
Proposal to raise funding for

4890
06:08:09,222 --> 06:08:10,223
Public funds.

4891
06:08:10,223 --> 06:08:12,959
We don’t feel there are concerns

4892
06:08:12,959 --> 06:08:16,129
Running afoul of the nrb, state

4893
06:08:16,129 --> 06:08:18,098
Obligations or any other

4894
06:08:18,098 --> 06:08:19,833
Openness to litigation.

4895
06:08:19,833 --> 06:08:21,601
These are city funds and similar

4896
06:08:21,601 --> 06:08:24,871
To other revenue generating

4897
06:08:24,871 --> 06:08:26,206
Measure, it’s your right to

4898
06:08:26,206 --> 06:08:27,874
Attach the standards you want

4899
06:08:27,874 --> 06:08:28,542
And see fit.

4900
06:08:28,542 --> 06:08:31,244
I would like to give a shoutout

4901
06:08:31,244 --> 06:08:34,214
To the rising juntos, correct?

4902
06:08:34,214 --> 06:08:36,416
The recommendations to increase

4903
06:08:36,416 --> 06:08:38,919
The inclusionary requirement to

4904
06:08:38,919 --> 06:08:41,354
20% as well as raising the

4905
06:08:41,354 --> 06:08:44,291
In-lieu fees, I feel they are

4906
06:08:44,291 --> 06:08:46,359
Supportive of appropriate to the

4907
06:08:46,359 --> 06:08:47,594
Changes to the proposal as

4908
06:08:47,594 --> 06:08:48,562
Well.

4909
06:08:48,562 --> 06:08:50,630
We have sent draft resolution

4910
06:08:50,630 --> 06:08:52,532
Language to the mayor, I

4911
06:08:52,532 --> 06:08:53,934
Believe, maybe other

4912
06:08:53,934 --> 06:08:54,301
Councilmembers.

4913
06:08:54,301 --> 06:08:56,770
If not, we’ll reach out to you

4914
06:08:56,770 --> 06:08:57,370
Shortly.

4915
06:08:57,370 --> 06:09:00,173
I ask you to please move to

4916
06:09:00,173 --> 06:09:01,741
Continue the vote to the next

4917
06:09:01,741 --> 06:09:03,777
Meeting so we can work to

4918
06:09:03,777 --> 06:09:07,347
Protect the construction workers

4919
06:09:07,347 --> 06:09:09,249
Without whom this housing will

4920
06:09:09,249 --> 06:09:09,916
Be built.

4921
06:09:09,916 --> 06:09:13,053
Thank you for your your time.

4922
06:09:13,053 --> 06:09:16,923
>> clerk: mark followed by

4923
06:09:16,923 --> 06:09:19,359
Pastor josie and then devin.

4924
06:09:19,359 --> 06:09:21,728
>> I’ll waive my time, thank

4925
06:09:21,728 --> 06:09:22,162
You.

4926
06:09:22,162 --> 06:09:30,070
>> pastor josie.

4927
06:09:30,070 --> 06:09:31,371
Good evening, everyone.

4928
06:09:31,371 --> 06:09:33,140
It’s been quite a night.

4929
06:09:33,140 --> 06:09:37,344
My name is pastor josie, pass

4930
06:09:37,344 --> 06:09:41,214
Pastor of the 7th day adventist

4931
06:09:41,214 --> 06:09:43,850
Church.

4932
06:09:43,850 --> 06:09:45,919
From those perspectives, I want

4933
06:09:45,919 --> 06:09:47,788
To express my support in the

4934
06:09:47,788 --> 06:09:48,054
Ordinance.

4935
06:09:48,054 --> 06:09:50,323
I want to encourage you to pass

4936
06:09:50,323 --> 06:09:52,626
It or at least continue it with

4937
06:09:52,626 --> 06:09:55,896
All of the other people who have

4938
06:09:55,896 --> 06:09:57,097
Spoken that would like to

4939
06:09:57,097 --> 06:09:58,632
Contribute to making sure that

4940
06:09:58,632 --> 06:10:01,268
We pass an ordinance that is

4941
06:10:01,268 --> 06:10:12,779
Inclusive of everyone who will

4942
06:10:12,779 --> 06:10:14,014
Participant in it.

4943
06:10:14,014 --> 06:10:15,615
My experience has been eye

4944
06:10:15,615 --> 06:10:16,383
Opening.

4945
06:10:16,383 --> 06:10:18,785
Tenants with the highest income

4946
06:10:18,785 --> 06:10:20,887
Create the most challenges while

4947
06:10:20,887 --> 06:10:24,491
Those with modest incomes are

4948
06:10:24,491 --> 06:10:26,560
Frequently the most responsible

4949
06:10:26,560 --> 06:10:28,595
And reliable in my experience.

4950
06:10:28,595 --> 06:10:30,063
This issue is also personal for

4951
06:10:30,063 --> 06:10:30,397
Me.

4952
06:10:30,397 --> 06:10:33,600
I was raised by a single mother

4953
06:10:33,600 --> 06:10:37,270
Who relied on affordable housing

4954
06:10:37,270 --> 06:10:39,806
To raise two teenage daughters.

4955
06:10:39,806 --> 06:10:41,675
These opportunities of

4956
06:10:41,675 --> 06:10:46,179
Affordable housing have helped

4957
06:10:46,179 --> 06:10:50,016
Place us in a safer community.

4958
06:10:50,016 --> 06:10:52,452
I believe that being in a safer

4959
06:10:52,452 --> 06:10:54,287
Community had a positive impact

4960
06:10:54,287 --> 06:10:56,490
In our life.

4961
06:10:56,490 --> 06:10:59,426
Right now, antioch leads the

4962
06:10:59,426 --> 06:11:02,395
County in homelessness.

4963
06:11:02,395 --> 06:11:05,465
Imagine if we became known as

4964
06:11:05,465 --> 06:11:08,301
The city that led the county in

4965
06:11:08,301 --> 06:11:09,402
Reducing it.

4966
06:11:09,402 --> 06:11:11,671
To help make this possible, I’m

4967
06:11:11,671 --> 06:11:13,874
Going to agree with the

4968
06:11:13,874 --> 06:11:17,043
Recommendations that were

4969
06:11:17,043 --> 06:11:17,711
Given.

4970
06:11:17,711 --> 06:11:20,113
From a faith perspective, I

4971
06:11:20,113 --> 06:11:21,948
Believe it’s extremely important

4972
06:11:21,948 --> 06:11:25,051
That we prioritize the most

4973
06:11:25,051 --> 06:11:27,220
Vulnerable in our communities.

4974
06:11:27,220 --> 06:11:29,856
It is more important that we

4975
06:11:29,856 --> 06:11:34,694
Prioritize people than profits.

4976
06:11:34,694 --> 06:11:36,730
So, I would ask that you would

4977
06:11:36,730 --> 06:11:41,234
Consider increasing this to 20%,

4978
06:11:41,234 --> 06:11:43,770
A slightly stronger commitment

4979
06:11:43,770 --> 06:11:46,807
Today could make a more

4980
06:11:46,807 --> 06:11:48,875
Meaningful difference for many

4981
06:11:48,875 --> 06:11:52,179
Families like mine, in the near

4982
06:11:52,179 --> 06:11:52,779
Future.

4983
06:11:52,779 --> 06:11:56,483
In terms of the extremely low

4984
06:11:56,483 --> 06:11:58,318
Income residents, I would like

4985
06:11:58,318 --> 06:12:01,354
To see a land dedication option

4986
06:12:01,354 --> 06:12:03,457
So nonprofits can build

4987
06:12:03,457 --> 06:12:04,891
Affordable housing with

4988
06:12:04,891 --> 06:12:07,294
Supportive services.

4989
06:12:07,294 --> 06:12:13,333
I was the former chair of 7th

4990
06:12:13,333 --> 06:12:15,202
Day adventist pastors and

4991
06:12:15,202 --> 06:12:17,404
Leaders in contra costa county,

4992
06:12:17,404 --> 06:12:19,339
And right now, we are currently

4993
06:12:19,339 --> 06:12:22,309
Seeing if we can work with one

4994
06:12:22,309 --> 06:12:24,611
Of our churches to help build

4995
06:12:24,611 --> 06:12:27,514
Affordable housing on their land

4996
06:12:27,514 --> 06:12:28,115
In pittsburgh.

4997
06:12:28,115 --> 06:12:29,749
I think that’s something we

4998
06:12:29,749 --> 06:12:31,918
Could do here as well.

4999
06:12:31,918 --> 06:12:34,454
The decisions that you make

5000
06:12:34,454 --> 06:12:37,057
Tonight will shape not only the

5001
06:12:37,057 --> 06:12:39,292
Buildings in our city, but the

5002
06:12:39,292 --> 06:12:46,266
Lives that grow within them.

5003
06:12:46,266 --> 06:12:48,568
Because a truly strong city is

5004
06:12:48,568 --> 06:12:50,971
Not where only the wealthy can

5005
06:12:50,971 --> 06:12:53,173
Live, but where every family has

5006
06:12:53,173 --> 06:12:56,343
The opportunity to call it a

5007
06:12:56,343 --> 06:12:59,646
Home.

5008
06:12:59,646 --> 06:13:11,358
Thank you for your time.

5009
06:13:11,358 --> 06:13:14,461
Devin followed by cecilia.

5010
06:13:14,461 --> 06:13:16,062
>> good evening again.

5011
06:13:16,062 --> 06:13:26,840
I’m a little calmer now.

5012
06:13:26,840 --> 06:13:28,408
It’s late, and I know you want

5013
06:13:28,408 --> 06:13:31,077
To go home.

5014
06:13:31,077 --> 06:13:33,580
Thanks, for decades now,

5015
06:13:33,580 --> 06:13:35,549
Unchecked power of capitalism

5016
06:13:35,549 --> 06:13:38,385
And bribes taken in the federal

5017
06:13:38,385 --> 06:13:41,455
Government and state government,

5018
06:13:41,455 --> 06:13:45,692
Genz millennials like myself and

5019
06:13:45,692 --> 06:13:47,360
Generation alpha will have

5020
06:13:47,360 --> 06:13:48,995
Continued suffering when it

5021
06:13:48,995 --> 06:13:51,331
Comes to home ownership.

5022
06:13:51,331 --> 06:13:53,400
People are quick to say pull

5023
06:13:53,400 --> 06:13:57,404
Yourself up by your boot straps

5024
06:13:57,404 --> 06:13:59,372
And recently, I have heard we

5025
06:13:59,372 --> 06:14:01,074
Can’t afford boots at this

5026
06:14:01,074 --> 06:14:01,274
Point.

5027
06:14:01,274 --> 06:14:03,677
We can’t afford bus fare to get

5028
06:14:03,677 --> 06:14:05,212
Us through the day.

5029
06:14:05,212 --> 06:14:09,483
My boots are pulled up, but they

5030
06:14:09,483 --> 06:14:10,784
Are old now.

5031
06:14:10,784 --> 06:14:12,853
I am blessed to have family I

5032
06:14:12,853 --> 06:14:17,457
Can rely on to have shelter and

5033
06:14:17,457 --> 06:14:19,092
Hopefully one day buy a home to

5034
06:14:19,092 --> 06:14:29,169
Call my own.

5035
06:14:29,169 --> 06:14:31,671
I know people with three degrees

5036
06:14:31,671 --> 06:14:34,741
Struggling to pay for a two

5037
06:14:34,741 --> 06:14:35,842
Bedroom apartment.

5038
06:14:35,842 --> 06:14:37,711
I’m blessed here.

5039
06:14:37,711 --> 06:14:40,213
It shouldn’t be this hard.

5040
06:14:40,213 --> 06:14:42,949
30 years ago my parents were

5041
06:14:42,949 --> 06:14:44,751
Able to buy a home in san

5042
06:14:44,751 --> 06:14:53,193
Francisco in their 20s.

5043
06:14:53,193 --> 06:14:54,127
That’s my story.

5044
06:14:54,127 --> 06:14:56,296
There are so many in antioch

5045
06:14:56,296 --> 06:14:58,865
That don’t have that story,

5046
06:14:58,865 --> 06:15:01,601
Don’t have a relation to my

5047
06:15:01,601 --> 06:15:02,869
Story at all.

5048
06:15:02,869 --> 06:15:04,004
They grew up here.

5049
06:15:04,004 --> 06:15:05,539
I don’t know everyone in the

5050
06:15:05,539 --> 06:15:08,608
City, but there is a need.

5051
06:15:08,608 --> 06:15:10,811
I’ll tell you a story about me

5052
06:15:10,811 --> 06:15:12,546
When I was a teenager.

5053
06:15:12,546 --> 06:15:15,048
I played this game called the

5054
06:15:15,048 --> 06:15:17,250
Sims at home.

5055
06:15:17,250 --> 06:15:19,653
It’s a simulation you build a

5056
06:15:19,653 --> 06:15:21,621
Home, start a family, super

5057
06:15:21,621 --> 06:15:21,788
Fun.

5058
06:15:21,788 --> 06:15:24,157
I built homes I wanted to live

5059
06:15:24,157 --> 06:15:24,825
In one day.

5060
06:15:24,825 --> 06:15:26,793
I thought the world is decent.

5061
06:15:26,793 --> 06:15:28,628
I’ll be able to do it.

5062
06:15:28,628 --> 06:15:30,297
My parents did it.

5063
06:15:30,297 --> 06:15:31,631
Friends, family members --

5064
06:15:31,631 --> 06:15:32,199
Whatever.

5065
06:15:32,199 --> 06:15:34,000
Not in 2008.

5066
06:15:34,000 --> 06:15:37,304
When I graduated high school,

5067
06:15:37,304 --> 06:15:39,773
The economy tanked, housing

5068
06:15:39,773 --> 06:15:41,007
Market sucks and we are

5069
06:15:41,007 --> 06:15:42,876
Suffering from it still today.

5070
06:15:42,876 --> 06:15:44,845
I know there are so many

5071
06:15:44,845 --> 06:15:46,279
Teenagers out there with the

5072
06:15:46,279 --> 06:15:49,216
Same dream I had to own a home,

5073
06:15:49,216 --> 06:15:50,016
Pursue the career they wanted

5074
06:15:50,016 --> 06:15:50,450
To.

5075
06:15:50,450 --> 06:15:53,720
I used to dream of kicking my

5076
06:15:53,720 --> 06:15:55,889
Feet up after a day on the set

5077
06:15:55,889 --> 06:15:59,059
Watching a movie or reading the

5078
06:15:59,059 --> 06:16:01,461
Next script for my next

5079
06:16:01,461 --> 06:16:02,062
Project.

5080
06:16:02,062 --> 06:16:03,663
If you know me, you know.

5081
06:16:03,663 --> 06:16:05,432
I don’t have that privilege

5082
06:16:05,432 --> 06:16:06,833
Because I decided to do this

5083
06:16:06,833 --> 06:16:07,834
Work.

5084
06:16:07,834 --> 06:16:11,404
My triem is dream is put on

5085
06:16:11,404 --> 06:16:11,938
Hold.

5086
06:16:11,938 --> 06:16:14,741
That’s the short version.

5087
06:16:14,741 --> 06:16:16,576
I employer everyone to do the

5088
06:16:16,576 --> 06:16:16,910
Research.

5089
06:16:16,910 --> 06:16:18,779
I don’t think we are breaking

5090
06:16:18,779 --> 06:16:19,112
Laws.

5091
06:16:19,112 --> 06:16:20,847
We have a city attorney that

5092
06:16:20,847 --> 06:16:22,582
Would have told us, you’re

5093
06:16:22,582 --> 06:16:25,352
Breaking the law.

5094
06:16:25,352 --> 06:16:28,822
Anyway, not to hold you up

5095
06:16:28,822 --> 06:16:30,824
Longer, but now that my dream is

5096
06:16:30,824 --> 06:16:33,126
On hold, I’m fighting for the

5097
06:16:33,126 --> 06:16:37,330
Right to make this right,

5098
06:16:37,330 --> 06:16:38,165
Affordable, inclusionary,

5099
06:16:38,165 --> 06:16:40,467
Whatever you call it, it doesn’t

5100
06:16:40,467 --> 06:16:42,969
Mean developers, we’ll make sure

5101
06:16:42,969 --> 06:16:47,574
You can’t do anything or leave.

5102
06:16:47,574 --> 06:16:51,945
It means developers, read the

5103
06:16:51,945 --> 06:16:52,913
Room.

5104
06:16:52,913 --> 06:16:54,448
It’s always about you.

5105
06:16:54,448 --> 06:16:56,216
Now today, it should be about

5106
06:16:56,216 --> 06:16:57,184
The community.

5107
06:16:57,184 --> 06:16:59,486
Let the community have this one,

5108
06:16:59,486 --> 06:17:01,321
Right?

5109
06:17:01,321 --> 06:17:05,625
So, inclusionary housing in my

5110
06:17:05,625 --> 06:17:07,260
Closing, thank you for the five

5111
06:17:07,260 --> 06:17:08,895
Minutes, what it means to me is

5112
06:17:08,895 --> 06:17:10,530
The opportunity for families to

5113
06:17:10,530 --> 06:17:12,966
Grow up in a place they call

5114
06:17:12,966 --> 06:17:15,235
Their own even if they don’t own

5115
06:17:15,235 --> 06:17:17,337
It, but they can afford to live

5116
06:17:17,337 --> 06:17:18,004
There.

5117
06:17:18,004 --> 06:17:21,074
For the most part, I hope you

5118
06:17:21,074 --> 06:17:22,142
Pass this.

5119
06:17:22,142 --> 06:17:25,679
I really want labor to be a

5120
06:17:25,679 --> 06:17:26,780
Piece of the conversation as

5121
06:17:26,780 --> 06:17:27,981
Well.

5122
06:17:27,981 --> 06:17:30,050
I think it’s a long time coming

5123
06:17:30,050 --> 06:17:32,018
That we have something like this

5124
06:17:32,018 --> 06:17:33,453
In antioch.

5125
06:17:33,453 --> 06:17:38,492
Thank you all, goodnight.

5126
06:17:38,492 --> 06:17:43,263
>> clerk: cecilia, followed

5127
06:17:43,263 --> 06:17:43,563
By melissa.

5128
06:17:43,563 --> 06:17:49,536
>> it’s so cold in here.

5129
06:17:49,536 --> 06:17:49,803
Hi.

5130
06:17:49,803 --> 06:17:51,705
Good evening, councilmembers and

5131
06:17:51,705 --> 06:17:52,472
City staff.

5132
06:17:52,472 --> 06:17:54,674
My name is cecilia.

5133
06:17:54,674 --> 06:17:58,178
I’m a community organizer with

5134
06:17:58,178 --> 06:18:00,547
Rising juntos and antioch

5135
06:18:00,547 --> 06:18:00,814
Resident.

5136
06:18:00,814 --> 06:18:02,215
Everyone in this room cares

5137
06:18:02,215 --> 06:18:04,618
About the well being of our

5138
06:18:04,618 --> 06:18:06,086
Community.

5139
06:18:06,086 --> 06:18:07,888
Antioch is a diverse city where

5140
06:18:07,888 --> 06:18:09,856
Families come to build their

5141
06:18:09,856 --> 06:18:11,391
Lives, raise their children and

5142
06:18:11,391 --> 06:18:14,194
Feel a sense of belonging.

5143
06:18:14,194 --> 06:18:15,962
Rising juntos has been before

5144
06:18:15,962 --> 06:18:20,367
This council for years urging

5145
06:18:20,367 --> 06:18:22,335
Safe affordable, dignified

5146
06:18:22,335 --> 06:18:23,837
Housing.

5147
06:18:23,837 --> 06:18:25,939
In 2020, in addition to tenant

5148
06:18:25,939 --> 06:18:29,075
Protections pointed for the need

5149
06:18:29,075 --> 06:18:31,211
For inclusionariry housing

5150
06:18:31,211 --> 06:18:32,746
Ordinances.

5151
06:18:32,746 --> 06:18:34,247
We thank council for considering

5152
06:18:34,247 --> 06:18:36,583
The proposal before you

5153
06:18:36,583 --> 06:18:36,817
Tonight.

5154
06:18:36,817 --> 06:18:38,985
Rising juntos has long asserted

5155
06:18:38,985 --> 06:18:42,155
That in order for antioch to

5156
06:18:42,155 --> 06:18:43,924
Thrive, we need affordable

5157
06:18:43,924 --> 06:18:45,025
Housing.

5158
06:18:45,025 --> 06:18:47,127
In spite of the council’s

5159
06:18:47,127 --> 06:18:49,863
Leadership to pass much needed

5160
06:18:49,863 --> 06:18:51,298
Tenant protections, more is

5161
06:18:51,298 --> 06:18:52,265
Needed.

5162
06:18:52,265 --> 06:18:54,134
This policy is key to continue

5163
06:18:54,134 --> 06:18:57,971
The great work that we have done

5164
06:18:57,971 --> 06:19:02,175
Together to stabilize housing.

5165
06:19:02,175 --> 06:19:03,210
Antioch residents continue to

5166
06:19:03,210 --> 06:19:04,744
Struggle with homelessness.

5167
06:19:04,744 --> 06:19:07,814
The majority of extremely low

5168
06:19:07,814 --> 06:19:10,884
Income res didn’ts residents in

5169
06:19:10,884 --> 06:19:12,319
Particular are in need of

5170
06:19:12,319 --> 06:19:14,488
Housing that is actually

5171
06:19:14,488 --> 06:19:15,222
Affordable.

5172
06:19:15,222 --> 06:19:17,591
The proposed 15% requirement is

5173
06:19:17,591 --> 06:19:19,359
A step in the right direction,

5174
06:19:19,359 --> 06:19:21,628
But it’s not nearly enough.

5175
06:19:21,628 --> 06:19:24,998
We are asking for a 20%, which

5176
06:19:24,998 --> 06:19:26,766
Would have a meaningful impact

5177
06:19:26,766 --> 06:19:29,402
In creating truly affordable

5178
06:19:29,402 --> 06:19:31,138
Housing for families.

5179
06:19:31,138 --> 06:19:33,440
A 20% rate is reasonable.

5180
06:19:33,440 --> 06:19:37,377
It is commonly used in many

5181
06:19:37,377 --> 06:19:39,146
Cities and will ensure as

5182
06:19:39,146 --> 06:19:41,748
Antioch continues to grow, the

5183
06:19:41,748 --> 06:19:43,183
Growth includes homes that

5184
06:19:43,183 --> 06:19:45,819
Working families, seniors,

5185
06:19:45,819 --> 06:19:48,221
Immigrants and residents on

5186
06:19:48,221 --> 06:19:52,159
Fixed incomes can afford.

5187
06:19:52,159 --> 06:19:54,194
A 20% inclusionary requirement

5188
06:19:54,194 --> 06:19:56,663
Allow families to remain in the

5189
06:19:56,663 --> 06:19:58,732
City they call home and keep our

5190
06:19:58,732 --> 06:19:59,533
City strong.

5191
06:19:59,533 --> 06:20:02,903
I urge you to pass at least a

5192
06:20:02,903 --> 06:20:05,539
20% inclusionary requirement in

5193
06:20:05,539 --> 06:20:07,374
The inclusionary housing

5194
06:20:07,374 --> 06:20:09,176
Ordinance so the policies

5195
06:20:09,176 --> 06:20:11,912
Reflect the needs, values an

5196
06:20:11,912 --> 06:20:13,547
Dignity of people who live

5197
06:20:13,547 --> 06:20:14,147
Here.

5198
06:20:14,147 --> 06:20:16,183
Thank you, and we are urge you

5199
06:20:16,183 --> 06:20:18,685
To vote yes and continue

5200
06:20:18,685 --> 06:20:20,320
Stabilizing housing in our

5201
06:20:20,320 --> 06:20:20,887
Community.

5202
06:20:20,887 --> 06:20:22,789
Thank you.

5203
06:20:22,789 --> 06:20:26,159
>> clerk: melissa, followed by

5204
06:20:26,159 --> 06:20:30,163
Mr. Becker.

5205
06:20:30,163 --> 06:20:37,871
>> I have been waiting for

5206
06:20:37,871 --> 06:20:38,338
This.

5207
06:20:38,338 --> 06:20:41,608
I actually do believe -- I’m a

5208
06:20:41,608 --> 06:20:45,045
Realtor, and I believe in the

5209
06:20:45,045 --> 06:20:46,046
Inclusionary housing ordinance,

5210
06:20:46,046 --> 06:20:48,248
And I looked up the lawsuits,

5211
06:20:48,248 --> 06:20:50,450
And it seems the courts are

5212
06:20:50,450 --> 06:20:52,052
Siding with the cities more than

5213
06:20:52,052 --> 06:20:53,720
They are with the people that

5214
06:20:53,720 --> 06:20:56,590
Sue the cities, except when it

5215
06:20:56,590 --> 06:20:59,059
Comes to smaller sites, so maybe

5216
06:20:59,059 --> 06:21:01,361
You should revisit that.

5217
06:21:01,361 --> 06:21:04,231
I did a quick search on that.

5218
06:21:04,231 --> 06:21:07,100
Having developers pay for

5219
06:21:07,100 --> 06:21:10,604
Amenities like parks,

5220
06:21:10,604 --> 06:21:12,239
Playgrounds, we have been --

5221
06:21:12,239 --> 06:21:13,006
School, we have been doing

5222
06:21:13,006 --> 06:21:14,141
That.

5223
06:21:14,141 --> 06:21:16,710
Yes, they added on to the market

5224
06:21:16,710 --> 06:21:17,277
Rate homes.

5225
06:21:17,277 --> 06:21:19,780
To me, this is another amenity

5226
06:21:19,780 --> 06:21:27,354
For antioch, the -- bmr homes.

5227
06:21:27,354 --> 06:21:30,957
I do agree a minimum for low

5228
06:21:30,957 --> 06:21:33,760
Income housing, I’m not sure if

5229
06:21:33,760 --> 06:21:35,428
I like the 20%.

5230
06:21:35,428 --> 06:21:37,297
I feel we could revisit that

5231
06:21:37,297 --> 06:21:37,631
Later.

5232
06:21:37,631 --> 06:21:39,666
Some of the developers say they

5233
06:21:39,666 --> 06:21:42,202
Have a hard time selling.

5234
06:21:42,202 --> 06:21:44,304
I don’t know if I believe them,

5235
06:21:44,304 --> 06:21:46,072
But -- that’s what they are

5236
06:21:46,072 --> 06:21:47,474
Telling everyone.

5237
06:21:47,474 --> 06:21:50,410
I appreciated how he came up

5238
06:21:50,410 --> 06:21:52,846
With the in-lieu fees.

5239
06:21:52,846 --> 06:21:56,783
I’m kind of wanting it to be

5240
06:21:56,783 --> 06:22:00,187
More because I think the value

5241
06:22:00,187 --> 06:22:03,890
Of bmr homes on the market is

5242
06:22:03,890 --> 06:22:06,193
More value than receiving fees.

5243
06:22:06,193 --> 06:22:12,332
That’s my personal opinion.

5244
06:22:12,332 --> 06:22:12,966
Sorry.

5245
06:22:12,966 --> 06:22:14,835
I have tons of notes.

5246
06:22:14,835 --> 06:22:16,770
I’m going to say, I have at

5247
06:22:16,770 --> 06:22:20,273
Least in my database right now,

5248
06:22:20,273 --> 06:22:22,142
Minimum three people that would

5249
06:22:22,142 --> 06:22:24,711
Benefit from bmr homes.

5250
06:22:24,711 --> 06:22:26,346
The developer said in the

5251
06:22:26,346 --> 06:22:29,516
Feedback when I looked over the

5252
06:22:29,516 --> 06:22:30,717
Packet, they said developers

5253
06:22:30,717 --> 06:22:32,586
Stress the difficulty of

5254
06:22:32,586 --> 06:22:36,756
Qualifying for home loans may

5255
06:22:36,756 --> 06:22:41,995
Impede the function of iho,

5256
06:22:41,995 --> 06:22:45,465
Barriers to mortgage

5257
06:22:45,465 --> 06:22:45,966
Qualifications including

5258
06:22:45,966 --> 06:22:47,434
Adequate down payment.

5259
06:22:47,434 --> 06:22:49,936
There are two reasons people

5260
06:22:49,936 --> 06:22:53,240
Don’t buy homes, fica scores,

5261
06:22:53,240 --> 06:22:53,840
Down payment.

5262
06:22:53,840 --> 06:22:56,743
There are so many program, my

5263
06:22:56,743 --> 06:22:58,211
Home, my zip, california dream

5264
06:22:58,211 --> 06:22:59,279
Act.

5265
06:22:59,279 --> 06:23:01,281
There is down payment assistance

5266
06:23:01,281 --> 06:23:04,351
For the buyer.

5267
06:23:04,351 --> 06:23:08,488
Fica that’s personal choice.

5268
06:23:08,488 --> 06:23:09,823
That’s something they can work

5269
06:23:09,823 --> 06:23:13,426
On with a qualified loan officer

5270
06:23:13,426 --> 06:23:15,295
Or program to improve your

5271
06:23:15,295 --> 06:23:15,962
Credit.

5272
06:23:15,962 --> 06:23:17,497
Buying a home is a privilege.

5273
06:23:17,497 --> 06:23:19,666
You need to have your credit

5274
06:23:19,666 --> 06:23:20,767
Score up to do that.

5275
06:23:20,767 --> 06:23:22,836
It shows the bank that you are

5276
06:23:22,836 --> 06:23:25,238
Responsible and they’ll want to

5277
06:23:25,238 --> 06:23:26,239
Loan to you then.

5278
06:23:26,239 --> 06:23:29,843
I looked up mls data since I

5279
06:23:29,843 --> 06:23:30,944
Have access to it.

5280
06:23:30,944 --> 06:23:34,848
In the last year, on mls, new

5281
06:23:34,848 --> 06:23:37,818
Home developments don’t always

5282
06:23:37,818 --> 06:23:40,353
Put bmrs on there.

5283
06:23:40,353 --> 06:23:43,356
are eight homes bmr last

5284
06:23:43,356 --> 06:23:44,591
Year all sold.

5285
06:23:44,591 --> 06:23:45,926
Guess how many are currently on

5286
06:23:45,926 --> 06:23:47,327
The market?

5287
06:23:47,327 --> 06:23:47,527
Zero.

5288
06:23:47,527 --> 06:23:50,063
They have all sold.

5289
06:23:50,063 --> 06:23:51,698
That tells me there is a need

5290
06:23:51,698 --> 06:23:53,233
For it.

5291
06:23:53,233 --> 06:23:55,168
When developers say there’s a

5292
06:23:55,168 --> 06:23:56,102
Barrier to come.

5293
06:23:56,102 --> 06:24:02,442
People are buying these homes.

5294
06:24:02,442 --> 06:24:08,715
Sorry.

5295
06:24:08,715 --> 06:24:11,551
More stats antioch, first time

5296
06:24:11,551 --> 06:24:14,054
Home buyers, they are the most

5297
06:24:14,054 --> 06:24:15,555
Fun to work with.

5298
06:24:15,555 --> 06:24:19,292
You give them the keys and it

5299
06:24:19,292 --> 06:24:19,993
Feels good.

5300
06:24:19,993 --> 06:24:22,929
I just put one under contract.

5301
06:24:22,929 --> 06:24:23,930
I’m very happy.

5302
06:24:23,930 --> 06:24:27,601
In antioch, basic minimum is

5303
06:24:27,601 --> 06:24:31,037
$450,000 for a desirable, older

5304
06:24:31,037 --> 06:24:33,173
Home built in 1970.

5305
06:24:33,173 --> 06:24:34,407
That’s what you need to buy a

5306
06:24:34,407 --> 06:24:34,941
Home.

5307
06:24:34,941 --> 06:24:38,245
You can buy condos cheaper and

5308
06:24:38,245 --> 06:24:43,416
Fixer uppers cheaper.

5309
06:24:43,416 --> 06:24:47,220
6% interest rate with 3% down,

5310
06:24:47,220 --> 06:24:50,190
Household income $138,000 to

5311
06:24:50,190 --> 06:24:52,159
Qualify comfortably for this

5312
06:24:52,159 --> 06:24:54,995
House.

5313
06:24:54,995 --> 06:24:57,063
That’s 50% debt to income

5314
06:24:57,063 --> 06:24:57,297
Ratio.

5315
06:24:57,297 --> 06:25:01,234
Guess what antioch medium

5316
06:25:01,234 --> 06:25:03,203
Housing is?

5317
06:25:03,203 --> 06:25:03,436
98,000.

5318
06:25:03,436 --> 06:25:06,406
We clearly need it.

5319
06:25:06,406 --> 06:25:09,676
I also researched about bmr

5320
06:25:09,676 --> 06:25:09,876
Homes.

5321
06:25:09,876 --> 06:25:12,078
Five minutes goes so fast.

5322
06:25:12,078 --> 06:25:13,713
I don’t know if you can do this,

5323
06:25:13,713 --> 06:25:16,550
But make it right of first

5324
06:25:16,550 --> 06:25:19,085
Refusal for city workers,

5325
06:25:19,085 --> 06:25:20,387
Teachers, first responders.

5326
06:25:20,387 --> 06:25:22,255
I know some cities have done

5327
06:25:22,255 --> 06:25:22,589
That.

5328
06:25:22,589 --> 06:25:25,926
I think that to truly improve

5329
06:25:25,926 --> 06:25:26,960
The community, you are the best

5330
06:25:26,960 --> 06:25:28,261
Of five people around you.

5331
06:25:28,261 --> 06:25:30,597
If you mix the uses in between,

5332
06:25:30,597 --> 06:25:31,865
You will raise people up.

5333
06:25:31,865 --> 06:25:46,213
I am for this.

5334
06:25:46,213 --> 06:25:49,249
>> thank you.

5335
06:25:49,249 --> 06:25:52,119
A long time coming.

5336
06:25:52,119 --> 06:25:55,422
It feels like a long

5337
06:25:55,422 --> 06:25:57,023
Conversation, but when you think

5338
06:25:57,023 --> 06:26:00,227
Back, I honestly feel like

5339
06:26:00,227 --> 06:26:01,728
Sometimes it’s 30 minutes here

5340
06:26:01,728 --> 06:26:04,598
Or an hour there and a lot gets

5341
06:26:04,598 --> 06:26:07,734
Left off the table, so I’m a

5342
06:26:07,734 --> 06:26:08,969
Little concerned when I look at

5343
06:26:08,969 --> 06:26:11,471
This ordinance because the whole

5344
06:26:11,471 --> 06:26:14,307
Intent of this process was to

5345
06:26:14,307 --> 06:26:18,178
Understand antioch’s needs, and

5346
06:26:18,178 --> 06:26:21,448
From this proposal in the

5347
06:26:21,448 --> 06:26:22,983
Inclusionary housing program, it

5348
06:26:22,983 --> 06:26:25,952
Looks like it’s catering toward

5349
06:26:25,952 --> 06:26:27,454
The affordable housing market

5350
06:26:27,454 --> 06:26:30,624
That is the low income housing

5351
06:26:30,624 --> 06:26:33,160
Tax credit developer model that

5352
06:26:33,160 --> 06:26:37,364
Primarily targets 60 to 70 to

5353
06:26:37,364 --> 06:26:39,399
80% ami.

5354
06:26:39,399 --> 06:26:41,134
So, we literally are talking

5355
06:26:41,134 --> 06:26:43,203
About putting dollars into a

5356
06:26:43,203 --> 06:26:45,739
Housing trust fund that is going

5357
06:26:45,739 --> 06:26:48,909
To help the community’s needs.

5358
06:26:48,909 --> 06:26:52,412
Let’s look at a real life

5359
06:26:52,412 --> 06:26:54,281
Scenario in antioch.

5360
06:26:54,281 --> 06:26:57,350
Standard communities received

5361
06:26:57,350 --> 06:26:58,885
Entitlements on a property that

5362
06:26:58,885 --> 06:27:02,289
The city of antioch created a

5363
06:27:02,289 --> 06:27:04,224
Commercial infill housing

5364
06:27:04,224 --> 06:27:06,927
Overlay that streamlines the

5365
06:27:06,927 --> 06:27:08,628
Process, reducing costs from the

5366
06:27:08,628 --> 06:27:10,163
Developer, allowing them to

5367
06:27:10,163 --> 06:27:12,866
Deepen their amis to meet the

5368
06:27:12,866 --> 06:27:16,069
Lower a mi community needs.

5369
06:27:16,069 --> 06:27:18,572
We understand that our regional

5370
06:27:18,572 --> 06:27:20,440
Housing need allocations say

5371
06:27:20,440 --> 06:27:23,510
That our two largest by far are

5372
06:27:23,510 --> 06:27:26,680
Our extremely low and above

5373
06:27:26,680 --> 06:27:29,316
Moderate but the above moderate

5374
06:27:29,316 --> 06:27:31,418
Comes out of the picture because

5375
06:27:31,418 --> 06:27:32,519
It’s affordable housing.

5376
06:27:32,519 --> 06:27:34,921
If we understand it’s the

5377
06:27:34,921 --> 06:27:36,456
Extremely low, we understand the

5378
06:27:36,456 --> 06:27:39,192
Tax credit developers primarily

5379
06:27:39,192 --> 06:27:42,162
Target low income, you end up

5380
06:27:42,162 --> 06:27:45,265
With buchanan crossing receiving

5381
06:27:45,265 --> 06:27:47,134
From standard communities

5382
06:27:47,134 --> 06:27:49,002
Through what I imagine is a low

5383
06:27:49,002 --> 06:27:52,405
Income housing tax credit 9% or

5384
06:27:52,405 --> 06:27:54,274
4%, per their numbers they

5385
06:27:54,274 --> 06:27:59,846
Submitted to the city is

5386
06:27:59,846 --> 06:28:11,758
Developing -- 185 units -- I

5387
06:28:11,758 --> 06:28:13,860
Hope this is the right project,

5388
06:28:13,860 --> 06:28:16,263
But they are all around the same

5389
06:28:16,263 --> 06:28:17,998
Ami, so you will get the

5390
06:28:17,998 --> 06:28:19,332
Picture.

5391
06:28:19,332 --> 06:28:24,137
185 pictures185 units of low

5392
06:28:24,137 --> 06:28:26,106
Income, 23 extremely low and 23

5393
06:28:26,106 --> 06:28:29,109
Very low.

5394
06:28:29,109 --> 06:28:31,211
So, buchanan crossings, where

5395
06:28:31,211 --> 06:28:34,614
The per capita income per

5396
06:28:34,614 --> 06:28:39,219
Individual in 307201 census

5397
06:28:39,219 --> 06:28:42,589
Tract is $28,000 for a single

5398
06:28:42,589 --> 06:28:45,459
Individual, you are only

5399
06:28:45,459 --> 06:28:50,597
Bringing 44 units out of over

5400
06:28:50,597 --> 06:28:52,332
Approximately 200 units where

5401
06:28:52,332 --> 06:28:54,201
The city already incentivized

5402
06:28:54,201 --> 06:28:58,171
The developer by creating a

5403
06:28:58,171 --> 06:28:59,673
Streamline approval process.

5404
06:28:59,673 --> 06:29:02,075
Then we dig deeper and say why

5405
06:29:02,075 --> 06:29:04,711
Are they only tax credit

5406
06:29:04,711 --> 06:29:05,145
Projects?

5407
06:29:05,145 --> 06:29:07,114
If you look at the numbers given

5408
06:29:07,114 --> 06:29:09,716
In prevailing wage unit costs,

5409
06:29:09,716 --> 06:29:12,052
They are not realistic.

5410
06:29:12,052 --> 06:29:14,254
I’m sure the consultant can

5411
06:29:14,254 --> 06:29:17,491
Agree the deeper the ami, the

5412
06:29:17,491 --> 06:29:19,059
Higher the unit costs, because

5413
06:29:19,059 --> 06:29:23,096
There are inherit costs such as

5414
06:29:23,096 --> 06:29:25,298
Permanent supportive models,

5415
06:29:25,298 --> 06:29:28,201
Wrap around services and more

5416
06:29:28,201 --> 06:29:29,136
Intensive supportive space

5417
06:29:29,136 --> 06:29:32,239
Onsite, leading you to a higher

5418
06:29:32,239 --> 06:29:34,708
Prevailing wage cost here in the

5419
06:29:34,708 --> 06:29:36,443
Bay area and northern california

5420
06:29:36,443 --> 06:29:40,714
On projects I’m working on,

5421
06:29:40,714 --> 06:29:44,985
Range from 550 to 750,000 per

5422
06:29:44,985 --> 06:29:45,652
Unit.

5423
06:29:45,652 --> 06:29:47,154
So, then if you say, we are

5424
06:29:47,154 --> 06:29:49,022
Going to put these dollars into

5425
06:29:49,022 --> 06:29:51,658
The housing trust fund so that

5426
06:29:51,658 --> 06:29:54,728
We can help the true community

5427
06:29:54,728 --> 06:29:57,764
Needs here in antioch, we are

5428
06:29:57,764 --> 06:29:58,965
Acknowledging the developers

5429
06:29:58,965 --> 06:30:00,967
Will take the dollars and put

5430
06:30:00,967 --> 06:30:05,605
Them in the 60 to 70% ami, our

5431
06:30:05,605 --> 06:30:07,741
Middle needed bracket, and

5432
06:30:07,741 --> 06:30:09,476
Frankly, through the three

5433
06:30:09,476 --> 06:30:11,011
Projects submitted in the

5434
06:30:11,011 --> 06:30:14,181
Overlay, we have met the rena

5435
06:30:14,181 --> 06:30:15,682
Needs alone.

5436
06:30:15,682 --> 06:30:16,716
That’s actually wiped out.

5437
06:30:16,716 --> 06:30:19,019
We have addressed that per the

5438
06:30:19,019 --> 06:30:22,522
Alina cycle, 400 something

5439
06:30:22,522 --> 06:30:22,823
Units.

5440
06:30:22,823 --> 06:30:25,559
What about the 796 we have to

5441
06:30:25,559 --> 06:30:28,061
Build where out of those three

5442
06:30:28,061 --> 06:30:32,499
Prompts projects we get 60?

5443
06:30:32,499 --> 06:30:34,534
Once again, I feel like it’s

5444
06:30:34,534 --> 06:30:37,437
Three minutes of talk here, 30

5445
06:30:37,437 --> 06:30:39,339
Minutes here, an hour here.

5446
06:30:39,339 --> 06:30:42,209
My name is andrew becker.

5447
06:30:42,209 --> 06:30:43,844
Pretty much everyone knows my

5448
06:30:43,844 --> 06:30:44,411
Number.

5449
06:30:44,411 --> 06:30:46,346
Please call me so we can talk

5450
06:30:46,346 --> 06:30:46,980
Further.

5451
06:30:46,980 --> 06:30:49,649
>> clerk: we have no further

5452
06:30:49,649 --> 06:30:55,689
Comment cards.

5453
06:30:55,689 --> 06:30:57,958
>> hello, good evening.

5454
06:30:57,958 --> 06:31:03,964
I’m a staff attorney at public

5455
06:31:03,964 --> 06:31:06,166
Advocates nonprofit public

5456
06:31:06,166 --> 06:31:09,169
Interest law firm supporting

5457
06:31:09,169 --> 06:31:11,304
Housing and justice.

5458
06:31:11,304 --> 06:31:13,039
We challenge racial

5459
06:31:13,039 --> 06:31:15,041
Discrimination by strengthening

5460
06:31:15,041 --> 06:31:16,209
Community voices.

5461
06:31:16,209 --> 06:31:17,644
I’m here in support of the

5462
06:31:17,644 --> 06:31:26,453
Housing ordinance.

5463
06:31:26,453 --> 06:31:27,954
Antioch wouldn’t be the first

5464
06:31:27,954 --> 06:31:32,025
Nor the last to adopt an iho.

5465
06:31:32,025 --> 06:31:34,594
A 2017 report estimated 149

5466
06:31:34,594 --> 06:31:36,496
Cities and counties across

5467
06:31:36,496 --> 06:31:39,232
California have some form of

5468
06:31:39,232 --> 06:31:40,667
Inclusionary zoning policy,

5469
06:31:40,667 --> 06:31:43,503
Making it a popular way to

5470
06:31:43,503 --> 06:31:44,838
Ensure affordable housing gets

5471
06:31:44,838 --> 06:31:46,306
Built.

5472
06:31:46,306 --> 06:31:48,975
This city should move forward

5473
06:31:48,975 --> 06:31:54,581
With iho knowing that california

5474
06:31:54,581 --> 06:31:58,251
Courts have been found ihos

5475
06:31:58,251 --> 06:31:59,820
Constitutional and at the

5476
06:31:59,820 --> 06:32:02,122
Federal level, while there are

5477
06:32:02,122 --> 06:32:05,592
Challenges to the

5478
06:32:05,592 --> 06:32:06,159
Constitutionality under the

5479
06:32:06,159 --> 06:32:08,562
Fifth amendment, they are not

5480
06:32:08,562 --> 06:32:10,130
Successful.

5481
06:32:10,130 --> 06:32:12,098
Currently it’s good law to push

5482
06:32:12,098 --> 06:32:32,052
Forward the housing ordinance.
