THE TREES ON FIRE, WHICH HAVE

503
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:36,999

00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:51,999
SIGNIFICANT TRAFFIC SAFETY

750
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:52,999
CONSIDERATIONS THERE THAT PUT

751
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:53,999
THE LIVES OF OUR 2,000 CHILDREN

752
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:54,999
AND STAFF AT RISK EVERY SINGLE

753
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:55,999
DAY.

754
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:56,999
THE SCHOOL HAS NO CHOICE IN

755
00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:00,999
TERMS OF WHERE IT'S LOCATED BUT

756
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:01,999
I WOULD CERTAINLY WELCOME

757
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:02,999
THE SUPPORT FROM OUR

758
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:04,999
HARD-WORKING MEN AND WOMEN IN

759
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:05,999
BLUE TO SHOW UP THERE AND START

760
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:06,999
TICKETING THE DRIVERS THAT

761
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:08,999
CHOOSE TO CONVENIENTLY IGNORE

762
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:09,999
THE TRAFFIC LAWS IN OUR CITY THE

763
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:10,999
MOMENT THEIR PRECIOUS PANCAKES

764
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,999
ARE OUT OF THEIR VEHICLE.

765
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:18,999
AND YOU KNOW, IT GOT SO BAD LAST

766
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,999
YEAR I ENDED UP SPENDING 4 OR

767
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:24,999
$500 OUT OF MY POCKET TO GET THE

768
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:25,999
STAFF SOME HIGH VISIBILITY CAPS

769
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:28,999
AND VESTS BECAUSE LAST THING I

770
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:29,999
WANTED TO SEE WAS A STAFF MEMBER

771
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:31,999
DIRECTING TRAFFIC GETTING HIT.

772
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:33,999
SO I DON'T WANT TO TAKE ANY

773
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:34,999
CREDIT FOR TRAFFIC TRYING TO

774
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:38,999
BEHAVE A LITTLE BETTER AFTER

775
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:39,999
THEY CAN SEE THESE FOLKS BUT MY

776
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:41,999
UNDERSTANDING IS THE EMAIL CAME

777
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:42,999
OUT ON AUGUST 21ST AS I REACHED

778
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:44,999
OUT TO YOU ALL AND ON MONDAY,

779
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:46,999
THERE WAS AL COP CAR OR CRUISER

780
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,999
THAT WAS STATIONED RIGHT OUTSIDE

781
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:50,999
THE SCHOOL AND I'M TOLD THAT

782
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:51,999
DESPITE THE PRESENCE OF A

783
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:52,999
UNIFORMED OFFICER THERE WERE

784
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,999
VEHICLES VIOLATING THE LAW.

785
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:57,999
SO IT JUST SPEAKS TO THIS IDEA

786
00:27:58,000 --> 00:27:58,999
THAT OUR DRIVERS HERE IN FREMONT

787
00:27:59,000 --> 00:27:59,999
HAVE STARTED TO DISREGARD THE

788
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:01,999
LAWS OF THE LAND.

789
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:03,999
WE ALSO HAVE ISSUES WITH

790
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:04,999
TRANSIENTS THERE, MOST RECENTLY

791
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:06,999
THREE PEOPLE WHO WERE PRETTY

792
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:08,999
UNHINGED IN A STATE OF, YOU

793
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:11,999
KNOW, GETTING QUITE A BIT OF

794
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:12,999
CHAOS PUTTING THE KIDS AT QUITE

795
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:15,999
A BIT OF RISK THERE.

796
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,999
SO HOPEFULLY THEY'LL HAVE THEIR

797
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:21,999
VERSION OF FLEX GLASS WHICH IS

798
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:22,999
MORE COPS, MORE ENFORCEMENT.

799
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:23,999
THANK YOU.

800
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:24,999
>> Mr. Quintanilla: NO

801
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:25,999
ADDITIONAL SPEAKERS.

802
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:26,999
>> Mayor Salwan: THAT CONCLUDES

803
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:27,999
THE ORAL COMMUNICATION COMMENT

804
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:28,999
PERIOD.

805
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,999
I WANT TO THANK EVERYBODY FOR

806
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:32,999
VOICING YOUR OPINION.

807
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:34,999
AS MENTIONED WE CANNOT DIRECTLY

808
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:36,999
ACT ON THIS BECAUSE IT'S NO THE

809
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:38,999
AGENDIZED BUT PLEASE DO CONTACT

810
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:39,999
OUR STAFF AND IF THEY'RE AROUND,

811
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:40,999
YOU CAN CONNECT WITH THEM AS

812
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:41,999
WELL.

813
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:45,999
THANK YOU.

814
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:46,999
WITH THAT, WE WILL GO ON TO OUR

815
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:52,999
SCHEDULED ITEMS.

816
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:53,999
I'D LIKE TO SEE IF

817
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:54,999
COUNCILMEMBERS -- I'D LIKE TO

818
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:56,999
CHANGE THE ORDER AND GO 5B,

819
00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:57,999
WHICH IS THE HEALTH BENEFIT

820
00:28:58,000 --> 00:28:58,999
ALLOWANCE PRIOR TO 5A.

821
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:04,999
DOES ANYBODY OPPOSE THAT?

822
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:06,999
>> Councilmember Campbell: CAN

823
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:07,999
YOU DO THAT AFTER IT'S ALREADY

824
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:09,999
BEEN APPROVED?

825
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,999
SINCE WE'VE ALREADY APPROVED THE

826
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:13,999
AGENDA AS IT STANDS, CAN WE MAKE

827
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:14,999
CHANGES NOW OR DO WE HAVE TO

828
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:18,999
MAKE ANOTHER MOTION?

829
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:19,999
>> Mayor Salwan: IF THERE'S NO

830
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:20,999
OBJECTION.

831
00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:21,999
>> Cty. Attny. Alvarado: IF

832
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:22,999
THERE'S CONSENSUS, THAT SHOULD

833
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:23,999
BE SUFFICIENT BUT IF IT'S

834
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:24,999
UNCLEAR WHETHER THERE'S

835
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:25,999
AGREEMENT, A MOTION IS THE SAFER

836
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:26,999
ROUTE TO TAKE.

837
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:27,999
>> Councilmember Campbell: I

838
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:28,999
HAVE NO OBJECTION, I JUST WANTED

839
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:29,999
TO UNDERSTAND THE PROCESS.

840
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:30,999
THANK YOU.

841
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:34,999

844
00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:38,999
FOR CITY COUNCILMEMBERS.

845
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:39,999
DO WE HAVE STAFF TO PRESENT

846
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:47,999
THAT?

847
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:48,999
STAFF IS AVAILABLE FOR

848
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:49,999
QUESTIONS.

849
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:50,999
NO PRESENTATION.

850
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:51,999
SO IF STAFF COULD COME ON UP,

851
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:52,999
I'M SURE THERE WILL BE

852
00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:56,999
QUESTIONS.

853
00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:57,999
COUNCILMEMBER KENG.

854
00:29:58,000 --> 00:29:58,999
>> Councilmember Keng: ALL

855
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:02,999
RIGHT.

856
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,999
MY QUESTION IS, IS IT TRUE

857
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:06,999

TO GET TO YOUR SEAT.

859
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:21,999
SO I HAVE ONE QUICK QUESTION.

860
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:24,999
IS IT TRUE THAT PART-TIME

861
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:28,999
EMPLOYEES OF THE CITY ARE

862
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:29,999
OFFERED HEALTH BENEFITS THAT ARE

863
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:31,999
RECOMMENDED -- THAT ARE BEING

864
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:32,999
RECOMMENDED HERE FOR THE

865
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:34,999
COUNCILMEMBERS WHO ARE ALSO

866
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:36,999
CONSIDERED PART-TIME?

867
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:38,999
AND DO YOU KNOW WHY IT WASN'T

868
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:39,999
OFFERED TO THE CITY

869
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:42,999
COUNCILMEMBERS BEFORE?

870
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:44,999
>> GENERALLY OUR PART-TIME

871
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:47,999
EMPLOYEES ARE NON-BENEFITED.

872
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,999
THERE ARE SOME POSITIONS THAT

873
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:52,999
ARE NOT QUITE 100% IN TERMS OF

874
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:54,999
THE HOURS WORKED IN A YEAR, AND

875
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:56,999
THEN BENEFITS ARE PRO-RATED FOR

876
00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:58,999
THOSE POSITIONS, FOR EXAMPLE, IN

877
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:03,999
HUMAN SERVICES, WE HAVE SOME

878
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:06,999

00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:07,999
SCHEDULE AND THEIR BENEFITS ARE

880
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:08,999
PRO-RATED COMMENSURATE WITH THAT

881
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:09,999
BUT GENERALLY OUR PART-TIME

882
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:11,999
EMPLOYEES ARE NOT BENEFITED.

883
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:12,999
>> Councilmember Keng: I SEE.

>> Councilmember Campbell: THANK

889
00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:23,999
I JUST -- TO FOLLOW UP ON THAT

890
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:24,999
QUESTION THAT SHE JUST ASKED, I

891
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:26,999
WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION BASED

892
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:30,999
ON THE STAFF REPORT THAT

893
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:32,999
BENEFITS WERE OFFERED TO THE

894
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:34,999
CITY COUNCIL BEFORE AND THEN

895
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:35,999
TAKEN BACK AND NOW REINSTATING

896
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:38,999
THEM?

897
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:40,999
>> AS FAR AS THE HEALTH BENEFIT,

898
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:44,999
THERE HAS BEEN A STANDING HEALTH

899
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:45,999
BENEFIT WHICH WAS A LITTLE BELOW

900
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:47,999
THE MEDIAN OF OUR COMPARABLE

901
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:50,999
CITIES, AND SO THE PROPOSAL FOR

902
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:53,999
THIS ORDINANCE IS TO INCREASE IT

903
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:55,999
COMMENSURATE WITH THE 50%

904
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:58,999
PART-TIME STATUS OF THE

905
00:31:59,000 --> 00:31:59,999
COUNCILMEMBERS TO 50% OF THE

906
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:00,999
BENEFIT THAT OUR REGULAR

907
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:01,999
EMPLOYEES RECEIVE FOR HEALTH.

908
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:02,999
>> Councilmember Campbell:

909
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:03,999
OKAY.

910
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:07,999
IS THIS SOMETHING THAT WE HAVE

911
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:08,999
TO TAKE UP AT THIS MEETING IF

912
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:11,999
WE'RE ALL IN AGREEMENT OR IS

913
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:12,999
THIS SOMETHING THAT WE COULD

914
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:13,999
PERHAPS LOOK AT AT ANOTHER

915
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:14,999
TIME?

916
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:15,999
IS THERE A PARTICULAR REASON WHY

917
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:17,999
WE'RE DOING IT NOW?

918
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:18,999
>> I'LL DEFER TO THE CITY

919
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,999
ATTORNEY ON THAT.

920
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:24,999
>> Cty. Attny. Alvarado: THIS IS

921
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:25,999
A CONTINUING DISCUSSION THAT

922
00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:28,999
ORIGINATED FROM THE CHARTER

923
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:29,999
ADVISORY COMMITTEE'S

924
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:30,999
RECOMMENDATIONS, AND

925
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:31,999
SUBSEQUENTLY THE COUNCIL

926
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,999
CONSIDERED AND GAVE STAFF

927
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,999
DIRECTION TO BRING BACK A

928
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:38,999
VARIETY OF POST-CHARTER

929
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:39,999
DISCUSSION ITEMS THAT COULD BE

930
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:42,999
ADDRESSED ADMINISTRATIVELY, SO

931
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:43,999
THIS IS ONE AMONGST A VARIETY OF

932
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:44,999
ITEMS THAT IS COMING BACK TO THE

933
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:45,999
COUNCIL AS AN EXTENSION OF THAT

934
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:52,999
CONVERSATION.

935
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:53,999
THERE IS NO LEGAL REQUIREMENT

936
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:56,999
THAT THE COUNCIL TAKE ACTION.

937
00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:59,999
THIS IS A DECISION THAT THE

938
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:01,999
COUNCIL CAN TAKE AT THIS TIME,

939
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:05,999
AND THE STAFF REPORT AND THE

940
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:06,999
RESOLUTION THAT'S ATTACHED WOULD

941
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:07,999
EFFECTUATE THIS RECOMMENDATION

942
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:08,999
THAT ORIGINATED AS PART OF THE

943
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:09,999
CHARTER ADVISORY COMMITTEE

944
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:10,999
PROCESS.

945
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:11,999
>> Councilmember Campbell:

946
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:12,999
OKAY.

947
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,999
CAN YOU THEN -- IF THAT'S THE

948
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,999
CASE, CAN YOU EXPLAIN TO ME WHAT

949
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:20,999
THE -- THE COUNCIL ALREADY

950
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:21,999
RECEIVES A HEALTH BENEFIT

951
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:23,999
ALLOWANCE.

952
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:24,999
WHAT WOULD BE THE BENEFIT OF

953
00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:25,999
INCREASING THAT HEALTH BENEFIT

954
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:26,999
ALLOWANCE AT THIS PARTICULAR

955
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:33,999
TIME?

956
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:34,999
>> Cty. Attny. Alvarado: WELL,

957
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:36,999
FOR THOSE COUNCILMEMBERS THAT

958
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:40,999
MAY NOT HAVE COVERAGE, THIS

959
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:41,999
WOULD OFFER A HEALTH BENEFIT

960
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:43,999
ALLOWANCE COVERAGE COMMENSURATE

961
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:44,999
WITH PART-TIME EMPLOYEES IN THE

962
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:48,999
UNREPRESENTED MANAGEMENT GROUP.

963
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:50,999
>> Councilmember Campbell: IS

964
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:54,999
THAT JUST OFFERED FOR JUST THE

965
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:56,999
COUNCILPERSON OR DOES THAT MEAN

966
00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:57,999
FAMILY WOULD BE INCLUDED IN

967
00:33:58,000 --> 00:33:58,999
THAT?

968
00:33:59,000 --> 00:33:59,999
>> Cty. Attny. Alvarado: IT'S

969
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:00,999
THE SAME PROGRAM THAT'S OFFERED

970
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:01,999
TO UNREPRESENTED MANAGEMENT

971
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:02,999
EMPLOYEES.

972
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:03,999
>> Councilmember Campbell: WHICH

973
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:07,999
MEANS YOU COULD INCLUDE YOUR

974
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:12,999
FAMILY, BUT YOU'D HAVE TO PAY

975
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:13,999
ANY AMOUNT ABOVE AND BEYOND THE

976
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:14,999
PROPOSED 1450?

977
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:16,999
>> THAT'S CORRECT, QUALIFYING

978
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:19,999
FAMILY MEMBERS COULD POTENTIALLY

979
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:21,999
GO UNDER A CITY COUNCILMEMBER'S

980
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:23,999
PLAN, AND IF IT EXCEEDS THE

981
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:24,999
1450, THEN THAT WOULD BE AN OUT

982
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:25,999
OF POCKET EXPENSE.

983
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:27,999
>> Councilmember Campbell: AND

984
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:32,999
WHAT IS THE AVERAGE COST OF A

985
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:35,999
BENEFIT PLAN FOR -- SAY IN THIS

986
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:38,999
-- FOR THE SAKE OF THE

987
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:39,999
DISCUSSION, FOR JUST THE CITY

988
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:40,999
COUNCILPERSON AND THEN WHAT

989
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:42,999
WOULD IT COST FOR A FAMILY?

990
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:45,999
>> I DON'T HAVE THE EXACT RATES

991
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,999
IN FRONT OF ME, BUT IT'S ROUGHLY

992
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:50,999
FOR ONE PARTY, KAISER, ABOUT

993
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:51,999
$1,000, AND THEN FOR A FAMILY,

994
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:54,999
IT'S OVER $3,000.

995
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:56,999
>> Councilmember Campbell: SO

996
00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:57,999
SUBSEQUENTLY THAT MEANT THAT THE

997
00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:00,999
COUNCILPERSONS WOULD HAVE TO PAY

998
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:02,999
ANY OF THE BALANCE FOR EITHER OF

999
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:03,999
THOSE PLANS IF THEY WERE TO TAKE

1000
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:04,999
THEM?

1001
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:06,999
>> TYPICALLY THE CITY WILL

1002
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:07,999
DEDUCT IT FROM THE EMPLOYEE'S

1003
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:08,999
PAYCHECK.

1004
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:09,999
>> Councilmember Campbell: IT

1005
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:10,999
WOULD BE A PAYROLL DEDUCTION.

1006
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:11,999
OKAY.

1007
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:12,999
THANK YOU SO MUCH.

1008
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:13,999
>> Mayor Salwan: COUNCILMEMBER

1009
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:14,999
ZHANG.

1010
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:15,999
>> Councilmember Zhang: THANK

1011
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:19,999
YOU, MAYOR.

1012
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:20,999
SO MY QUESTION IS WE

1013
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:22,999
AGREED LAST TIME TO PUT THIS

1014
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:23,999
ONE ON THE AGENDA, SO WHY WE ARE

1015
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:24,999
TALKING ABOUT WHY THIS IS ON THE

1016
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:27,999
AGENDA, I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

1017
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:30,999
AND SECOND OF ALL, I THINK THAT

1018
00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:31,999
BASED ON CHARTER AND WE REACHED

1019
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:35,999
SOME CONCLUSIONS AND, THEREFORE,

1020
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:36,999
WE ARE TAKING ACTIONS OUT OF

1021
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:41,999
THIS LENGTHY DISCUSSION.

1022
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:42,999
I THINK WHETHER THIS IS FOR THE

1023
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:43,999
COUNCILMEMBERS' BENEFIT,

1024
00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:44,999
APPARENTLY IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S

1025
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:46,999
FOR THE COUNCILMEMBERS BENEFIT

1026
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:48,999
FOR CURRENT COUNCILMEMBER BUT

1027
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:49,999
IT'S REALLY FOR THE LONG TERM

1028
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:53,999
FREMONT CITY COUNCIL, WHETHER

1029
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,999
THEY ARE BEING, WHAT SHALL I

1030
00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:59,999
SAY, THEY ARE -- THEIR BENEFIT

1031
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:03,999
OR -- I DON'T EVEN WANT TO SABIN

1032
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:04,999
FIT, THEIR NUMBERS, THE BENEFITS

1033
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:07,999
ISN'T COMPARABLE WITH OTHER

1034
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:11,999
CITIES WHICH WE HAVE DONE A

1035
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:12,999
LENGTHY ANALYSIS DURING THIS

1036
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:13,999
COMMITTEE'S SEVERAL MONTHS OF

1037
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:16,999
STUDY.

1038
00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:18,999
AND I JUST SIMPLY DON'T

1039
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:19,999
UNDERSTAND WHY WE ARE ASKING THE

1040
00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:21,999
SAME QUESTION AGAIN.

1041
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:26,999
AND ALSO ONE QUESTION I WANT TO

1042
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:29,999
ASK IS, GIVE ME THE REASON WHY

1043
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:34,999
THE CITY COUNCIL IS BEING

1044
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:35,999
COMPENSATED FOR ONLY $450 PER

1045
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:36,999
MONTH, AND HOW DOES THAT NUMBER

1046
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:42,999
COME FROM?

1047
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:43,999
>> Mayor Salwan: I GUESS I'LL

1048
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:44,999
JUST FOLLOW UP.

1049
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:47,999
I GUESS THE LARGER QUESTION,

1050
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:49,999
WHAT IS THE GENESIS OF -- I KNOW

1051
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:52,999
IN THE HEARING, I HEARD IT LIVE

1052
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:53,999
WITH ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER MISS

1053
00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:54,999
BRIGGS ABOUT THEM FINDING OUT

1054
00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:56,999
THAT THEY WERE UNDERPAID.

1055
00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:58,999
COULD STAFF COMMENT TO THAT,

1056
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:00,999
LIKE HOW -- YOU KNOW, HOW YOU

1057
00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:02,999
FOUND OUT THAT THIS WAS LOW OR

1058
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:03,999
WHAT HAPPENED EXACTLY IF YOU'D

1059
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:06,999
JUST WALK US THROUGH THAT.

1060
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:08,999
>> SO WE LOOKED AT A VARIETY OF

1061
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:10,999
GENERAL LAW AND CHARTER CITIES

1062
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:12,999
TO ASSESS WHAT THEIR

1063
00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:15,999
COUNCILMEMBERS AND MAYORS WERE

1064
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:17,999
RECEIVING IN TERMS OF HEALTH

1065
00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:18,999
BENEFIT ALLOWANCE OR EQUIVALENT

1066
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:20,999
THEREOF, AND WE DID FIND THAT

1067
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:22,999
THE CITY OF FREMONT WAS QUITE

1068
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:23,999
BELOW THE MEDIAN OF WHAT THE

1069
00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:24,999
COMPARABLE CITIES WERE

1070
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,999
OFFERING.

1071
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:30,999
AND SO WHAT WE LOOKED AT IS WHAT

1072
00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:32,999
WE WERE OFFERING OUR OTHER

1073
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:35,999
REPRESENTED EMPLOYEES.

1074
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:38,999
AS YOU MAY KNOW, COUNCILMEMBERS

1075
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:39,999
AND MAYOR CANNOT RECEIVE A

1076
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:41,999
BETTER BENEFIT THAN REPRESENTED

1077
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:42,999
UNION EMPLOYEES AND SOME OF OUR

1078
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:44,999
UNIONS DO OFFER PRO-RATED

1079
00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:46,999
BENEFITS FOR THOSE THAT ARE

1080
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:47,999
UNDER 100% IN TERMS OF THEIR

1081
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:49,999
EMPLOYMENT STATUS.

1082
00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:51,999
SO COMMENSURATE WITH THAT, THAT

1083
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:53,999
WAS THE DISCUSSION AT THE

1084
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:54,999
CHARTER CITY COMMISSION MEETING,

1085
00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:57,999
WHERE THEY LOOKED AT WHAT THE

1086
00:37:58,000 --> 00:37:59,999
OTHER CITIES WERE OFFERING, AND

1087
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:01,999
WHAT WE WERE DOING INTERNALLY

1088
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:06,999
WITH OUR OWN UNIONS, AND KAIMG

1089
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:08,999
CAME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT

1090
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:09,999
BASED ON ABOUT A 50% EQUIVALENCY

1091
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:12,999
OF EMPLOYMENT FOR COUNCILMEMBERS

1092
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:13,999
AND THE MAYOR, THAT THE BENEFIT

1093
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:15,999
SHOULD BE PRO-RATED.

1094
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:18,999
SO CURRENTLY OUR REPRESENTED

1095
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:19,999
EMPLOYEES RECEIVE $2,900 PER

1096
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:22,999
MONTH FOR HEALTH BENEFIT

1097
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:24,999
ALLOWANCE, SO THE 1,450

1098
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:26,999
REPRESENTS 50% OF THAT

1099
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:27,999
COMMENSURATE WITH HOURS WORKED.

1100
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:28,999
>> Mayor Salwan: THANK YOU.

1101
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:31,999
COUNCILMEMBER CAMPBELL.

1102
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:33,999
>> Councilmember Campbell: I

1103
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:34,999
JUST HAVE ONE QUICK MORE

1104
00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:40,999
CLARIFICATION QUESTION.

1105
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:42,999
SO IF YOU DON'T USE IT, WE

1106
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:45,999
TALKED ABOUT THE AMOUNT OF WHAT

1107
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:47,999
IT WOULD COST FOR A KAISER PLAN,

1108
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:49,999
AND IF ANY OF THE COUNCILPERSONS

1109
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:52,999
DECIDED THAT THEY DIDN'T WANT TO

1110
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:54,999
TAKE THE BENEFIT, IT DOESN'T GO

1111
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:55,999
BACK INTO THEIR CHECK OR

1112
00:38:56,000 --> 00:39:00,999
ANYTHING LIKE THAT, IT'S NOT

1113
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:01,999
PART OF AN INCOME-DRIVEN PROCESS

1114
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:03,999
HERE, RIGHT?

1115
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:04,999
IT JUST -- IF YOU DON'T USE IT,

1116
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:07,999
YOU JUST LOSE IT, CORRECT?

1117
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:08,999
>> YES, I BELIEVE THAT'S THE WAY

1118
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:09,999
IT'S BEEN FRAMED FOR THIS

1119
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:10,999
CONVERSATION.

1120
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:15,999
FOR THIS RESOLUTION.

1121
00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:17,999
>> Mayor Salwan: NO CASH PAYOUT

1122
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:18,999
I THINK IS WHAT I HAD READ.

1123
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:20,999
COUNCILMEMBER KIMBERLIN.

1124
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:21,999
>> Councilmember Kimberlin:

1125
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:23,999
QUESTION.

1126
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:24,999
I WAS WONDERING IF WE MIGHT

1127
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:26,999
CONSIDER, BECAUSE I'VE HEARD

1128
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:27,999
FROM THE PUBLIC THAT THERE ARE

1129
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:29,999
CONCERNS ABOUT, YOU KNOW, WHERE

1130
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:30,999
WE ARE FINANCIALLY.

1131
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:32,999
WE'VE HAD TO MAKE CUTS TO MEET

1132
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:33,999
SOME OF OUR NEEDS AND TO HAVE A

1133
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:36,999
BALANCED BUDGET.

1134
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:37,999
WOULD IT BEHOOVE US TO WAIT

1135
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:38,999
UNTIL WE GET A REPORT LIKE AT

1136
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:40,999
THE -- AFTER THE BEGINNING OF

1137
00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:41,999
THE YEAR AND SEE HOW WE'VE DONE

1138
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:43,999
FIRST QUARTER OR SEE WHERE WE

1139
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:44,999
ARE FINANCIAL LITTLE AND REVIEW

1140
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:46,999
IT AGAIN, NOT HAVING TO BRING IT

1141
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:48,999
WITH ANOTHER REFERRAL FOR AN

1142
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:50,999
ORDINANCE BUT TABLE IT UNTIL A

1143
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:51,999
CERTAIN DATE, AND I WOULD THINK

1144
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:52,999
MR. PERSSELIN MIGHT TELL US WHAT

1145
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:54,999
THAT DATE WOULD BE?

1146
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:55,999
IF WE WANT TO CONSIDER SOMETHING

1147
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:56,999
LIKE THAT?

1148
00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:57,999
>> Mayor Salwan: I GUESS WE CAN

1149
00:39:58,000 --> 00:39:59,999
COME BACK FOR DELIBERATION.

1150
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:00,999
MAYBE WE CAN HEAR FROM THE

1151
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:01,999
PUBLIC.

1152
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:02,999
THAT CAN PROBABLY HELP INFORM

1153
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:03,999
THE DISCUSSION.

1154
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:05,999
OKAY.

1155
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:06,999
HOW MANY SPEAKERS DO WE HAVE ON

1156
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:07,999
THIS ONE?

1157
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:08,999
>> Mr. Quintanilla: WE HAVE TWO

1158
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:09,999
SPEAKER CARDS.

1159
00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:10,999
>> Mayor Salwan: TWO MINUTES

1160
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:11,999
EACH.

1161
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:14,999
>> Mr. Quintanilla: FIRST

1162
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:20,999
SPEAKER IS JOANN SCHWOB.

1163
00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:21,999
FOLLOWED BY

1164
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:22,999
IZIZA.

1165
00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:27,999
JOANN?

1166
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:28,999
WE'LL MOVE AHEAD TO IZIZA

1167
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:32,999
AKBARY.

1168
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:33,999
>> GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND

1169
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:35,999
COUNCILMEMBERS.

1170
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:36,999
I'M A LONG-TIME FREMONT

1171
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:37,999
RESIDENT.

1172
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:39,999
I'M GOING TO BE COMBINING MY

1173
00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:40,999
COMMENTS ON BOTH 5A AND 5B

1174
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:43,999
TONIGHT.

1175
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:46,999
AS HAS BEEN MENTIONED BEFORE,

1176
00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:48,999
TONIGHT'S ITEM ON 5A IS A CPI

1177
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:49,999
TRIGGERED ADJUSTMENT UNDER AN

1178
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:50,999
EXISTING ORDINANCE, NOT AN ITEM

1179
00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:51,999
THAT WAS BROUGHT UP BY THE

1180
00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:54,999
COUNCIL TO ASK FOR A RAISE.

1181
00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:55,999
5B DID ORIGINATE FROM SOME

1182
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:56,999
CONVERSATIONS HAD AROUND MOVING

1183
00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:00,999
TO A CHARTER CITY.

1184
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:01,999
REGARDING 5A, THE ORDINANCE SETS

1185
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:02,999
A CEILING BUT NOT AN

1186
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:03,999
OBLIGATION.

1187
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:06,999
AS COUNCILMEMBERS, YOU HAVE THE

1188
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:07,999
CHOICE TO DECLINE OR DEFER THIS

1189
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:08,999
INCREASE AND THAT'S SQUARELY

1190
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:09,999
WITHIN YOUR AUTHORITY.

1191
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:11,999
THIS PAST YEAR, THE CITY WENT

1192
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:14,999
INTO A NEW FISCAL YEAR WITHOUT A

1193
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:15,999
SINGLE SIGNED LABOR CONTRACT,

1194
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:16,999
THE FIRST TIME THAT'S HAPPENED

1195
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:18,999
IN FREMONT'S HISTORY.

1196
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:20,999
IT TOOK UNTIL DECEMBER FOR MOST

1197
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:21,999
CITY EMPLOYEES TO SETTLE ON A

1198
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:24,999
1.3% COST OF LIVING INCREASE.

1199
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:26,999
THE COUNCIL ALSO PULLED A SALES

1200
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:27,999
TAX MEASURE OFF THE NOVEMBER

1201
00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:28,999
BALLOT BECAUSE A SURVEY SHOWED

1202
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:30,999
THAT RESIDENTS ARE STRUGGLING

1203
00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:31,999
WITH THE COST OF GAS, GROCERIES

1204
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:33,999
AND HOUSING.

1205
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:36,999
AND THIS YEAR'S BUDGET WAS ONLY

1206
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:37,999
BALANCED BY CUTTING $3 MILLION

1207
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:39,999
IN INFRASTRUCTURE SPENDING.

1208
00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:41,999
I KNOW THIS RAISE IS SMALL IN

1209
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:43,999
THE CONTEXT OF THE CITY'S

1210
00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:45,999
OVERALL BUDGET, BUT THAT'S

1211
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:48,999
EXACTLY WHY DECLINING BOTH 5A,

1212
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:49,999
THE INCREASE TO SALARY, AND 5B,

1213
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:50,999
THE HEALTH BENEFIT INCREASE,

1214
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:52,999
REALLY MATTERS.

1215
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:55,999
IT WON'T FIX FREMONT'S FINANCES

1216
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:56,999
EITHER WAY, BUT WHAT IT CAN DO

1217
00:41:57,000 --> 00:41:58,999
IS SHOW RESIDENTS THAT PEOPLE

1218
00:41:59,000 --> 00:41:59,999
MAKING DECISIONS ABOUT THEIR TAX

1219
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:00,999
DOLLARS ARE FACING THE SAME

1220
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:02,999
PRESSURES THAT WE ALL ARE.

1221
00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:04,999
IF IT ISN'T THE RIGHT TIME TO

1222
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:06,999
ASK RESIDENTS FOR MORE, IT ISN'T

1223
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:07,999
THE RIGHT TIME FOR THE COUNCIL

1224
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:09,999
TO TAKE MORE EITHER.

1225
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:11,999
SO I URGE YOU TO PLEASE DECLINE

1226
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:12,999
BOTH ITEMS 5A AND 5B.

1227
00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:16,999
THANK YOU.

1228
00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:18,999
>> Mr. Quintanilla: OUR NEXT

1229
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:20,999
SPEAKER IS JACK RODGERS.

1230
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:21,999
>> GOOD EVENING, MR. MAYOR AND

1231
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:25,999
CITY COUNCIL.

1232
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:27,999
I WAS HOPING NOT TO SPEAK

1233
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:30,999
TONIGHT, BUT AFTER HEARING THE

1234
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:32,999
PRESENTATION, PARTICULARLY ON

1235
00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:34,999
5B, I'M A LITTLE CONCERNED

1236
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:37,999
BECAUSE WHEN I READ THE REPORT,

1237
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:39,999
THERE DOESN'T SEEM TO BE A LOT

1238
00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:40,999
OF -- YOU TALK ABOUT FACTS THAT

1239
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:41,999
WERE DELIVERED TO YOU PERHAPS BY

1240
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:42,999
YOUR COMMITTEE.

1241
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:44,999
BUT FROM THE PUBLIC'S POINT OF

1242
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:46,999
VIEW, I DON'T SEE ANYTHING IN

1243
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:47,999
WRITING THERE THAT HELPS US

1244
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:50,999
UNDERSTAND WHO THE COMPARABLE

1245
00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:51,999
CITIES WERE THAT WERE USED, WHAT

1246
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:55,999
THE COMPARABLE WORKLOADS ARE, OR

1247
00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:56,999
WHAT THE ANALYSIS WAS THAT

1248
00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:58,999
GENERATED THE JUSTIFICATION TO

1249
00:42:59,000 --> 00:42:59,999
MOVE FORWARD WITH AN INCREASE IN

1250
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:01,999
THE HEALTH BENEFIT.

1251
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:02,999
IN ADDITION TO THAT, I THOUGHT

1252
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:06,999
THAT LAST WEEK, YOU WERE

1253
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:08,999
DELIVERED A CALENDAR OF WORK,

1254
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:09,999
AND I DON'T REMEMBER -- THAT

1255
00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:12,999
DEALT WITH THE CHARTER WORK, AND

1256
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:13,999
I DON'T REMEMBER SEEING THAT ON

1257
00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:14,999
-- THAT THAT CALENDAR SAID THAT

1258
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:18,999
THIS WAS COMING UP THIS WEEK.

1259
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:20,999
AND SO THOSE TWO PROCESS ISSUES,

1260
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:21,999
I THINK ARE REALLY QUESTIONABLE

1261
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:24,999
TO ME.

1262
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:25,999
AND THE LAST ONE IS DEALING WITH

1263
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:28,999
A, I DON'T WANT TO REPEAT WHAT

1264
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:30,999
THE PREVIOUS SPEAKER SAID, BUT I

1265
00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:31,999
DO BELIEVE THAT THIS IS AN

1266
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:34,999
INOPPORTUNE TIME FOR THE COUNCIL

1267
00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:37,999
TO TAKE THIS ACTION, AND IT IS

1268
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:40,999
NOT A BIG DOLLAR CENTS, I

1269
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:41,999
UNDERSTAND THIS IS REALLY JUST A

1270
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:44,999
ENFORCEMENT, A RECOMMENDATION

1271
00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:45,999
THAT HAS TO COME FROM THE STAFF

1272
00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:47,999
ANNUALLY OR BIANNUALLY AS THE

1273
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:48,999
CASE MAY BE FOR REVIEW OF THE

1274
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:51,999
COUNCIL SALARIES.

1275
00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:53,999
BUT IN LIGHT OF TODAY'S ECONOMIC

1276
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:55,999
PROBLEMS, I THINK IT'S UP TO

1277
00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:56,999
EACH INDIVIDUAL COUNCILPERSON TO

1278
00:43:57,000 --> 00:43:58,999
WEIGH WHETHER THIS IS THE RIGHT

1279
00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:00,999
TIME TO SEND A MESSAGE WHERE IT

1280
00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:05,999
GOOD TO RAISE YOUR SALARY AND

1281
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:06,999
NOT TO RAISE THE OTHERS' AT A

1282
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:07,999
COMPARABLE RATE.

1283
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:09,999
THANK YOU.

1284
00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:10,999
>> Mr. Quintanilla: NO

1285
00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:11,999
ADDITIONAL SPEAKERS.

1286
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:12,999
>> Mayor Salwan: OKAY, WE WILL

1287
00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:13,999
CONCLUDE THE PUBLIC COMMENT,

1288
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,999
BRING IT BACK TO COUNCIL.

1289
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:20,999
I SEE COUNCILMEMBER KIMBERLIN.

1290
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:21,999
>> Councilmember Kimberlin:

1291
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:23,999
THANK YOU, MAYOR.

1292
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:24,999
EXACTLY WHAT MISTER ROGERS HAS

1293
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:25,999
JUST BROUGHT UP IS MORE

1294
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:26,999
INFORMATION COMING TO THE PUBLIC

1295
00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:28,999
I THINK WOULD BE REALLY GREAT.

1296
00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:30,999
SO THEREFORE, IF WE WERE TO BE

1297
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:31,999
ABLE TO EXTEND IT AFTER WE GET

1298
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:33,999
ANOTHER FINANCIAL REPORT AT THE

1299
00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:36,999
BEGINNING OF NEXT YEAR, IF WE

1300
00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:37,999
CAN THEN BRING FORTH REALLY

1301
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:39,999
COMPARABLE INFORMATION FOR THE

1302
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:41,999
PUBLIC TO SEE EXACTLY HOW WE GOT

1303
00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:42,999
FROM ONE NUMBER TO ANOTHER

1304
00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:43,999
NUMBER AND WHAT'S GOING ON

1305
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:48,999
AROUND US.

1306
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:49,999
>> Mayor Salwan: I DON'T SEE

1307
00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:50,999
ANYBODY ELSE RAISING THEIR

1308
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:52,999
HANDS.

1309
00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:54,999
I DID WANT TO CLARIFY, SO ON THE

1310
00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:55,999
FIRST SPEAKER, THE 1.3% WAS FOR

1311
00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:58,999
LAST BUDGET CYCLE.

1312
00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:00,999
FOR THIS CYCLE, WE'VE GIVEN 3%

1313
00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:02,999
RAISES FOR THREE YEARS.

1314
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:04,999
FOR THE COUNCIL.

1315
00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:09,999
SO THAT'S NOT ENTIRELY CORRECT.

1316
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:10,999
AND SO -- AND THEN AS FAR AS

1317
00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:11,999
MISTER ROGERS, I THINK IT WAS

1318
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:14,999
PRESENTED AT THE MEETING, BUT

1319
00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:18,999
CAN STAFF SPEAK MORE ABOUT WHAT

1320
00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:19,999
EXACTLY TRANSPIRED AND AS FAR AS

1321
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:21,999
WHERE DOES THIS AMOUNT RANK IN

1322
00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:22,999
THE MEDIAN AND HOW YOU GUYS CAME

1323
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:29,999
TO THIS NUMBER?

1324
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:30,999
>> THE INFORMATION WAS PRESENTED

1325
00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:33,999
IN PUBLIC MEETINGS RELATED TO

1326
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:34,999
THE CHARTER CITY COMMISSION IN

1327
00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:36,999
TERMS OF THE DETAIL.

1328
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:39,999
WE DO HAVE THE DETAIL OF THOSE

1329
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:41,999
POWERPOINT PRESENTATIONS THAT

1330
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:42,999
ARE AVAILABLE, IF SOMEONE CAN

1331
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:45,999
PUT THEM UP ON THE SCREEN.

1332
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:46,999
IT GENERALLY GIVES THE

1333
00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:48,999
COMPARISON OF FREMONT TO SOME OF

1334
00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:49,999
THE CITIES THAT ARE AROUND US.

1335
00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:54,999
HERE IT IS.

1336
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:55,999
SO IF WE'RE LOOKING AT

1337
00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:56,999
COUNCILMEMBERS' TOTAL

1338
00:45:57,000 --> 00:45:58,999
COMPENSATION, WHICH IS THE THIRD

1339
00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:01,999
COLUMN THERE, YOU WILL SEE THAT

1340
00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:02,999
THE MARKET MEDIAN IS BETWEEN SAN

1341
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:06,999
MATEO AND PALO ALTO, THEY'RE AT

1342
00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:07,999
THE BOTTOM AT ABOUT $52,000 PER

1343
00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:08,999
YEAR IN TOTAL COMPENSATION.

1344
00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:12,999
THAT MEANS BENEFITS AND SALARY.

1345
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:14,999
AND FREMONT RANKED MUCH BELOW

1346
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:16,999
THAT, WITH 36,000.

1347
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:26,999
AND THE NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE.

1348
00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:27,999
WE ALSO DID A STUDY OF

1349
00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:32,999
THE MAYOR AND THE MARKET MEDIAN

1350
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:33,999
WAS CITY OF ALAMEDA WITH 68,000

1351
00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:34,999
APPROXIMATELY IN TOTAL

1352
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:36,999
COMPENSATION, AND AS YOU CAN

1353
00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:37,999
SEE, FREMONT WAS SLIGHTLY BELOW

1354
00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:38,999
THAT AT 60.

1355
00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:39,999
60,000.

1356
00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:43,999
NEXT SLIDE.

1357
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:46,999
SO WE DID A COUPLE OF SCENARIOS

1358
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:47,999
FOR PART-TIME POSITIONS KNOWING

1359
00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:51,999
THAT SOME OF OUR REPRESENTED

1360
00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:53,999
UNION EMPLOYEES DO RECEIVE

1361
00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:56,999
BENEFITS COMMENSURATE WITH THEIR

1362
00:46:57,000 --> 00:46:59,999
TIME WORKED, AND WE LOOKED AT

1363
00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:00,999
GIVING THE MAYOR AND THE

1364
00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:03,999
COUNCILMEMBERS ALSO A PART-TIME

1365
00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:05,999
STATUS AT ABOUT 50% AND 50% OF

1366
00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:07,999
THE BENEFIT, AND THAT INCREASED

1367
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:09,999
THE ANNUAL TOTAL COMPENSATION TO

1368
00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:10,999
A POINT WHERE IT'S A LITTLE BIT

1369
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:11,999
MORE CONSISTENT WITH THE

1370
00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:12,999
SURROUNDING MARKET.

1371
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:16,999
NEXT SLIDE.

1372
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:18,999
SO AS YOU CAN SEE HERE, THE

1373
00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:20,999
MAYOR, ONCE YOU'VE ADJUSTED THE

1374
00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:24,999
HBA, SO THAT THE MAYOR IS

1375
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:25,999
RECEIVING 50% OF THE HBA,

1376
00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:28,999
THEN FREMONT ENDS UP A LITTLE

1377
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:29,999
BIT ABOVE THE MEDIAN AT 72,000

1378
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:31,999
IN TOTAL COMPENSATION.

1379
00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:34,999
NEXT SLIDE.

1380
00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:37,999
AND THEN FOR COUNCILMEMBERS,

1381
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:42,999
STILL BELOW THE MEDIAN, BUT MUCH

1382
00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:45,999
CLOSER TO THE $52,000 MEDIAN,

1383
00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:48,999
INCREASING THE HBA TO 50% OF

1384
00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:49,999
WHAT OUR REGULAR EMPLOYEES

1385
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:50,999
RECEIVED GETS THE COUNCILMEMBERS

1386
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:53,999
TO ABOUT 48,000.

1387
00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:54,999
MUCH CLOSER TO THE 52,000 THAT'S

1388
00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:59,999
THE MEDIAN.

1389
00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:00,999
>> Mayor Salwan: THANK YOU,

1390
00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:01,999
THAT'S HELPFUL.

1391
00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:02,999
SO I DON'T SEE ANYBODY WANTING

1392
00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:04,999
TO SPEAK.

1393
00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:05,999
SO -- OKAY.

1394
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:13,999
EVERYBODY WANTS TO SPEAK NOW.

1395
00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:14,999
COUNCILMEMBER CAMPBELL?

1396
00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:17,999
>> THANK YOU FOR THAT.

1397
00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:19,999
I THINK WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE ON

1398
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:21,999
THE SURFACE IS SOMEWHAT

1399
00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:24,999
MISLEADING BECAUSE WE DON'T

1400
00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:26,999
ACTUALLY RECEIVE THAT CASH SINCE

1401
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:30,999
THERE'S NO PAYOUT, SO WE TONIGHT

1402
00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:32,999
DON'T REALLY RECEIVE IT ON A

1403
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:33,999
CHECK SO I DON'T SEE AN

1404
00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:34,999
ADDITIONAL $1,400 ON THE MONTHLY

1405
00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:35,999
CHECK THAT WE GET FROM THE

1406
00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:37,999
CITY.

1407
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:39,999
AND THEN ADDITIONALLY, IF I LOOK

1408
00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:40,999
AT -- YOU DID PROVIDE THAT ON

1409
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:42,999
THE HANDOUT.

1410
00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:45,999
IF I LOOK AT THE COST OF THE

1411
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:47,999
BENEFITS THEMSELVES, IT'S MORE

1412
00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:50,999
THAN WE MAKE IN A MONTH, SO THAT

1413
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:52,999
MEANS THAT WE WOULD BASICALLY

1414
00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:55,999
NET -- WE WOULD NET ZERO AND WE

1415
00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:57,999
WOULD HAVE TO ACTUALLY GIVE BACK

1416
00:48:58,000 --> 00:48:59,999
TO THE CITY IF WE WERE TO

1417
00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:02,999
ACTUALLY TAKE THE HEALTH

1418
00:49:03,000 --> 00:49:04,999
INSURANCE BECAUSE IT'S EXTREMELY

1419
00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:05,999
EXPENSIVE TO BE ABLE TO AFFORD

1420
00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:10,999
HEALTH INSURANCE.

1421
00:49:11,000 --> 00:49:11,999
SO THE HBA THAT WE'RE GETTING

1422
00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:13,999
REALLY WASHES TO ZERO.

1423
00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:17,999
I MEAN, IF YOU THINK ABOUT IT.

1424
00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:18,999
SO I'M TRYING TO UNDERSTAND THE

1425
00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:20,999
BENEFIT ASSOCIATED WITH IT

1426
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:21,999
BECAUSE AT THIS POINT, I DON'T

1427
00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:22,999
SEE IT.

1428
00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:29,999
IT DOESN'T PENCIL OUT.

1429
00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:31,999
>> Mayor Salwan: I LOOK AT

1430
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:33,999
KAISER, THE LOWEST FOR

1431
00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:35,999
INDIVIDUAL, IT'S $1,168.86.

1432
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:36,999
SO THAT'S FOR ONE PERSON.

1433
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:37,999
>> Councilmember Campbell:

1434
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:38,999
RIGHT.

1435
00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:40,999
>> Mayor Salwan: SO I GUESS THE

1436
00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:41,999
LARGER CONCERN IS IT MIGHT NOT

1437
00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:45,999
MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE TO FOLKS

1438
00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:47,999
THAT ARE DOING WELL OR HAVE

1439
00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:49,999
BUSINESSES OR ARE EMPLOYED.

1440
00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:50,999
I JUST WORRY ABOUT YOUNG PEOPLE

1441
00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:52,999
OR PEOPLE THAT WANT TO STEP UP

1442
00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:53,999
OR PEOPLE THAT ARE

1443
00:49:54,000 --> 00:49:56,999
UNDERPRIVILEGED IN SOME WAYS

1444
00:49:57,000 --> 00:49:57,999
THAT IT CAN BE A MAJOR SACRIFICE

1445
00:49:58,000 --> 00:49:58,999
FOR THEM.

1446
00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:02,999
SO I THINK THAT'S SOMETHING WE

1447
00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:04,999
HAVE TO FACTOR IN.

1448
00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:06,999
AND I THINK TO YOUR POINT, IF

1449
00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:08,999
SOMEBODY'S INSURANCE IS LESS, SO

1450
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:10,999
IF IT'S 1169, THEN THAT PERSON

1451
00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:11,999
WOULD ONLY GET 1169 PAID FOR THE

1452
00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:13,999
INSURANCE, CORRECT?

1453
00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:14,999
THEY WON'T GET THE 1450 OR

1454
00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:17,999
WHATEVER.>> THAT'S CORRECT.

1455
00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:18,999
WE WOULD PAY THAT OUT AS PART OF

1456
00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:19,999
OUR MONTHLY PREMIUM PAYS FOR ALL

1457
00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:20,999
OF OUR EMPLOYEES.

1458
00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:22,999
>> Mayor Salwan: OKAY.

1459
00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:28,999
COUNCILMEMBER LIU.

1460
00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:29,999
>> Councilmember Liu: SO I JUST

1461
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:31,999
HAVE A COUPLE THINGS TO SAY.

1462
00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:34,999
I KNOW IT WAS MENTIONED EARLIER

1463
00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:35,999
THAT I THINK MR. ROGERS WAS

1464
00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:36,999
SURPRISED THAT THIS WAS ON THE

1465
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:37,999
AGENDA.

1466
00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:40,999
I DO WANT TO POINT OUT

1467
00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:43,999
RESPECTFULLY THAT THIS WAS

1468
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:45,999
LISTED ON LAST WEEK'S AGENDA,

1469
00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:46,999
THE POTENTIAL TIMELINE FOR

1470
00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:49,999
SEPTEMBER 2026, IT INCLUDES A

1471
00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:50,999
DRAFT ORDINANCE TO INCREASE CITY

1472
00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:51,999
COUNCIL SALARY AS AUTHORIZED IN

1473
00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:53,999
THE FREMONT MUNICIPAL CODE.

1474
00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:54,999
SO I JUST WANTED TO POINT THAT

1475
00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:55,999
OUT.

1476
00:50:56,000 --> 00:50:57,999
AND I GUESS SECOND OF ALL, I

1477
00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:00,999
GUESS I WANTED TO TALK MORE

1478
00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:01,999
ABOUT LIKE -- AND THIS MIGHT BE

1479
00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:02,999
COMBINING THE 5A TOGETHER WITH

1480
00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:05,999
5B.

1481
00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:06,999
BUT THEY ARE PRETTY RELATED SO I

1482
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:10,999
GUESS I JUST WANT TO TALK MORE

1483
00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:11,999
ABOUT THE GENERAL IMPRESSION OF

1484
00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:12,999
LIKE OUR SALARY AND THINGS LIKE

1485
00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:14,999
THAT.

1486
00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:16,999
SO OVERALL, YOU KNOW, THE

1487
00:51:17,000 --> 00:51:17,999
SALARY, I THINK IF YOU DON'T

1488
00:51:18,000 --> 00:51:18,999
TAKE HEALTH INSURANCE BECAUSE

1489
00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:20,999
THIS IS A PART-TIME JOB, I'M

1490
00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:21,999
ASSUMING A LOT OF PEOPLE MIGHT

1491
00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:23,999
ALREADY HAVE THEIR OWN INSURANCE

1492
00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:24,999
EITHER FROM THEIR SPOUSE OR

1493
00:51:25,000 --> 00:51:25,999
MAYBE THEY PURCHASED IT

1494
00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:29,999
THEMSELVES, SO IF YOU DON'T

1495
00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:31,999
INCLUDE THE HVA, THE ANNUAL

1496
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:34,999
SALARY WORKS ITSELF OUT TO

1497
00:51:35,000 --> 00:51:35,999
$31,000 WHICH WHEN YOU DIVIDE IT

1498
00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:39,999
HOURLY IS AROUND $15 AN HOUR.

1499
00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:41,999
SO $15 AN HOUR, THAT'S ACTUALLY

1500
00:51:42,000 --> 00:51:42,999
LESS THAN THE MINIMUM WAGE WE

1501
00:51:43,000 --> 00:51:44,999
HAVE HERE IN FREMONT, AND $15 AN

1502
00:51:45,000 --> 00:51:45,999
HOUR, THAT'S ACTUALLY LESS THAN

1503
00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:48,999
THE WAGE I HAD IN MY FIRST JOB

1504
00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:49,999
EVER IN 2016, WHEN I FIRST

1505
00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:51,999
GRADUATED HIGH SCHOOL.

1506
00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:53,999
I WORKED AS AN AFTER-SCHOOL

1507
00:51:54,000 --> 00:51:55,999
TEACHER RIGHT HERE IN THE -- IN

1508
00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:56,999
FREMONT AS WELL, AND EVEN BACK

1509
00:51:57,000 --> 00:51:57,999
THEN, 10 YEARS AGO, BEFORE ALL

1510
00:51:58,000 --> 00:52:02,999
THIS CRAZY INFLATION, I WAS

1511
00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:04,999
STILL MAKING $17 AN HOUR AT

1512
00:52:05,000 --> 00:52:05,999
MY JOB WHICH I DIDN'T HAVE A

1513
00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:06,999
COLLEGE DIPLOMA OR ANYTHING LIKE

1514
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:09,999
THAT.

1515
00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:11,999
SO I JUST WANT TO PUT THAT IN

1516
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:12,999
CONTEXT SO THAT ANY RAISE IS

1517
00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:14,999
JUST PURELY LIKE WE'RE NOT

1518
00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:15,999
ASKING FOR SIX FIGURE BONUSES OR

1519
00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:16,999
ANYTHING LIKE THAT, NOBODY IS

1520
00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:18,999
GETTING RICH OFF THIS, NOBODY IS

1521
00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:19,999
GOING TO BE A BILLIONAIRE OR

1522
00:52:20,000 --> 00:52:21,999
MILLIONAIRE OFF THIS.

1523
00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:23,999
IT'S JUST REALLY CONSISTENT WITH

1524
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:25,999
INFLATION, AND CONSISTENT TO

1525
00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:26,999
MOVE OURSELVES UP TO THE MARKET

1526
00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:27,999
MEDIAN.

1527
00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:31,999
AND OVERALL, I THINK SOMETHING

1528
00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:33,999
LIKE THIS, I REALLY EN -- IT

1529
00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:35,999
REALLY ENCOURAGES AND SUPPORTS

1530
00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:36,999
LIKE THE MAYOR MENTIONED,

1531
00:52:37,000 --> 00:52:37,999
SUPPORTS REGULAR PEOPLE BEING

1532
00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:40,999
ABLE TO RUN FOR OFFICE.

1533
00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:41,999
I THINK THIS JOB DOESN'T PAY

1534
00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:44,999
ANYTHING, FOR EXAMPLE, RIGHT,

1535
00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:46,999
HOW DOES THE AVERAGE PERSON,

1536
00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:47,999
MAYBE WHO IS ACTUALLY WORKING

1537
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:49,999
MINIMUM WAGE JOB, HOW ARE THEY

1538
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:51,999
ABLE TO REPRESENT THE WORKING

1539
00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:54,999
CLASS PEOPLE AND HAVE A SEAT,

1540
00:52:55,000 --> 00:52:55,999
YOU KNOW, ON THIS COUNCIL OR

1541
00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:56,999
ANYWHERE IF THEY'RE REQUIRED TO

1542
00:52:57,000 --> 00:52:57,999
SACRIFICE THEIR TIME WITHOUT

1543
00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:00,999
BEING COMPENSATED FOR THAT?

1544
00:53:01,000 --> 00:53:02,999
SO I THINK SOMETHING LIKE THIS

1545
00:53:03,000 --> 00:53:04,999
TO ENSURE AND FUTUREPROOF THIS

1546
00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:07,999
TO MAKE SURE THAT THE RAISES

1547
00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:08,999
THAT -- I MEAN THE SALARY THAT

1548
00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:11,999
WAS SET HOWEVER LONG AGO IS ABLE

1549
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:13,999
TO RISE WITH INFLATION AND STAY

1550
00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:14,999
CONSISTENT, IT DOESN'T GET EATEN

1551
00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:15,999
AWAY BY INFLATION AND ENSURES

1552
00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:17,999
THAT ANYBODY ELSE COMING AFTER

1553
00:53:18,000 --> 00:53:20,999
US WILL BE ABLE TO, YOU KNOW,

1554
00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:21,999
TAKE THIS WITHOUT UNNECESSARY

1555
00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:22,999
UNDUE BURDEN ON ONE THEMSELVES.

1556
00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:26,999
THAT'S MY OPINION ON IT.

1557
00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:27,999
>> Mayor Salwan: THANK YOU, NEXT

1558
00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:32,999
IS COUNCILMEMBER KENG.

1559
00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:34,999
>> THANK YOU, MAYOR.

1560
00:53:35,000 --> 00:53:37,999
I KIND OF LOOKED AT IT AS KIND

1561
00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:38,999
OF A SIMILAR REASONING BEHIND

1562
00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:41,999
MOVING TO DISTRICT ELECTION.

1563
00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:43,999
SO IT KIND OF GIVES MORE ACCESS

1564
00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:46,999
FOR THE REGULAR FOLKS WHO RUN

1565
00:53:47,000 --> 00:53:51,999
FOR OFFICE, AND I THINK IT'S

1566
00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:54,999
PRETTY CLEAR THAT WHERE THE

1567
00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:55,999
COUNCILMEMBERS IN FREMONT ARE

1568
00:53:56,000 --> 00:53:58,999
BEING PAID PRETTY ON THE LOW END

1569
00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:02,999
OF THIS CHART, AND I WILL KIND

1570
00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:05,999
OF SHARE THAT IF -- FOR THOSE OF

1571
00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:07,999
YOU THAT ARE NOT AWARE THAT FOR

1572
00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:11,999
EXAMPLE LIKE SAN LEANDRO, THEY

1573
00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:14,999
ARE BEING PAID AT AROUND 61,000,

1574
00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:18,999
BUT KINE OF NOBODY WANT TO RUN

1575
00:54:19,000 --> 00:54:20,999
FOR OFFICE OVER THERE IN SAN

1576
00:54:21,000 --> 00:54:21,999
LEANDRO BECAUSE IT'S NOT A EASY

1577
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:26,999
JOB TO DO, IT TAKES A LOT OF

1578
00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:28,999
TIME AND A LOT OF TIMES

1579
00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:30,999
THEIR ELECTED OFFICES ARE BEING

1580
00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:31,999
RUN IN THE POLLS, WHICH IS NOT

1581
00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:34,999
GOOD FOR OUR DEMOCRACY.

1582
00:54:35,000 --> 00:54:38,999
SO I THINK IT'S HAVING THIS WILL

1583
00:54:39,000 --> 00:54:41,999
KIND OF SET UP A BETTER

1584
00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:43,999
COMPENSATION FOR -- NOT JUST FOR

1585
00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:44,999
THE CURRENT ELECTS BUT ALSO FOR

1586
00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:45,999
PEOPLE IN THE FUTURE.

1587
00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:51,999
THANK YOU.

1588
00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:55,999
>> Mayor Salwan: I DID QUICK

1589
00:54:56,000 --> 00:54:57,999
MATH, IT WAS LIKE .02% OF OUR

1590
00:54:58,000 --> 00:54:58,999
TOTAL WOULD BE THE SALARY

1591
00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:02,999
INCREASE, ASSUMING EVERYBODY

1592
00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:04,999
GETS THE MAX,

1593
00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:05,999
1450, SOME MAY NOT LEAD IT,

1594
00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:06,999
SOME MAY HAVE LESS.

1595
00:55:07,000 --> 00:55:08,999
IT'S TRIVIAL, REALLY.

1596
00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:09,999
IT'S NOT GOING TO MAKE OR BREAK

1597
00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:11,999
THE BUDGET.

1598
00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:12,999
SO I THINK THERE'S A LOT OF

1599
00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:16,999
OTHER CONCERNS.

1600
00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:17,999
AND THEN THE 450 ONLY COVERS 38%

1601
00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:19,999
OF THE INSURANCE.

1602
00:55:20,000 --> 00:55:20,999
AND THAT'S THE LOWEST RATE WHICH

1603
00:55:21,000 --> 00:55:21,999
IS KAISER.

1604
00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:23,999
AGAIN, IF WE'RE GOING TO SAY

1605
00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:24,999
WE'RE BEING PROGRESSIVE OR WE

1606
00:55:25,000 --> 00:55:26,999
HAVE PROGRESSIVE VALUES, THEN

1607
00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:28,999
YOU WANT TO BE ABLE TO ALLOW FOR

1608
00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:30,999
YOUNG PEOPLE TO RUN, PEOPLE THAT

1609
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:31,999
ARE UNDERPRIVILEGED, PEOPLE THAT

1610
00:55:32,000 --> 00:55:33,999
DON'T HAVE THE RESOURCES.

1611
00:55:34,000 --> 00:55:34,999
YOU WANT THEM TO BE ABLE TO

1612
00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:35,999
SERVE ON THE CITY COUNCIL.

1613
00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:39,999
IT SHOULDN'T BE JUST PEOPLE LIKE

1614
00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:40,999
ME OR PEOPLE THAT ARE DOING VERY

1615
00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:41,999
WELL.

1616
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:42,999
SO I THINK THAT'S SOMETHING TO

1617
00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:43,999
CONSIDER AS WELL.

1618
00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:45,999
COUNCILMEMBER ZHANG.

1619
00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:46,999
>> Councilmember Zhang: YES,

1620
00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:49,999
THANK YOU.

1621
00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:50,999
I HEAR EVERYONE'S COMMENT, AND I

1622
00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:55,999
ECHO THAT, AND ANOTHER THING I

1623
00:55:56,000 --> 00:55:58,999
THINK WE RESPECT AS A CITY, WE

1624
00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:00,999
RESPECT THE FIREMEN'S WORK, WE

1625
00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:01,999
RESPECT POLICEMEN'S WORK, WE

1626
00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:05,999
RESPECT THE CITY STAFF'S WORK.

1627
00:56:06,000 --> 00:56:08,999
AND EVERY YEAR, WE GO INTO

1628
00:56:09,000 --> 00:56:11,999
CAREFUL DELIBERATION AND TALK

1629
00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:12,999
ABOUT SALARY NEGOTIATION AND

1630
00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:15,999
TALK ABOUT THEIR BENEFIT AND WE

1631
00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:19,999
DO EVERYTHING WE CAN TO TRY TO

1632
00:56:20,000 --> 00:56:20,999
GIVE OUR STAFF WHAT THEY -- WHAT

1633
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:22,999
THEY DESERVE.

1634
00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:24,999
BUT THEN THAT ALSO REFLECTS OUR

1635
00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:25,999
CULTURE, HOW WE LOOK AT ELECTED

1636
00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:29,999
OFFICIALS.

1637
00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:31,999
AND DO WE RESPECT OUR WORK, DO

1638
00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:32,999
WE -- ARE WE PROUD OF, YOU KNOW,

1639
00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:35,999
SERVING THE COMMUNITY.

1640
00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:36,999
DO WE AS A CITY COUNCIL, DO YOU

1641
00:56:37,000 --> 00:56:39,999
RESPECT YOUR WORK?

1642
00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:40,999
AND I THINK THIS IS NOT ABOUT

1643
00:56:41,000 --> 00:56:41,999
US.

1644
00:56:42,000 --> 00:56:43,999
I'M TALKING ABOUT -- I'M TALKING

1645
00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:44,999
ABOUT THE PAST AND ALSO

1646
00:56:45,000 --> 00:56:46,999
ESPECIALLY THE FUTURE.

1647
00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:47,999
AND DO THE COMMUNITY RESPECT OUR

1648
00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:48,999
WORK.

1649
00:56:49,000 --> 00:56:49,999
AND ALSO DO WE RESPECT OUR

1650
00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:53,999
WORK.

1651
00:56:54,000 --> 00:56:56,999
SO I THINK THIS IS A VERY MINOR

1652
00:56:57,000 --> 00:56:58,999
THINGS, AND WE NEED TO LOOK AT

1653
00:56:59,000 --> 00:57:02,999
THE BIG PICTURE AND ALSO I

1654
00:57:03,000 --> 00:57:06,999
RESPECT MY WORK, AND I HOPE THE

1655
00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:08,999
CITY COMMUNITY WOULD SEE OUR

1656
00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:10,999
ACTION AND HOLD US ACCOUNTABLE,

1657
00:57:11,000 --> 00:57:11,999
BUT AT THE SAME TIME, DO

1658
00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:12,999
APPRECIATE HOW MUCH TIME WE PUT

1659
00:57:13,000 --> 00:57:13,999
INTO THAT.

1660
00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:17,999
IT'S NOT A PART-TIME JOB.

1661
00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:18,999
BECAUSE I THINK IN ORDER TO DO A

1662
00:57:19,000 --> 00:57:20,999
GREAT -- MAKE A POLICY AND MAKE

1663
00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:22,999
A RIGHT DECISION, WE KEEP ON

1664
00:57:23,000 --> 00:57:27,999
LOOKING AT THE POLICIES NOT ONLY

1665
00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:28,999
THE STATE, NOT ONLY THE CITY,

1666
00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:30,999
THE STATE AND THE COUNTRY, IT'S

1667
00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:31,999
NOT IT'S A 7 -- WHAT'S IT

1668
00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:36,999
CALLED, A 5 HOUR A DAY JOB.

1669
00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:37,999
IT'S LIKE YOU'RE -- YOURSELF

1670
00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:39,999
INTO THIS.

1671
00:57:40,000 --> 00:57:41,999
I MEAN, I DON'T BELIEVE EVERYONE

1672
00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:43,999
COMING HERE JUST TO THINK ABOUT

1673
00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:48,999
WHETHER WE ARE PAID FAIRLY FOR

1674
00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:49,999
$17 AN HOUR, BUT I LOOK AT SOME

1675
00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:52,999
COMMENT FROM SOCIAL MEDIA, AND I

1676
00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:54,999
THINK IF WE DON'T SPEAK UP,

1677
00:57:55,000 --> 00:57:57,999
OKAY, LET'S JUST IMAGINE IN TWO

1678
00:57:58,000 --> 00:57:58,999
YEARS, I'M GOING TO RUN, THEY

1679
00:57:59,000 --> 00:57:59,999
SAY OKAY, SUCH AND SUCH PERSON

1680
00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:04,999
GAVE THEMSELF A RAISE.

1681
00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:07,999
AND THAT WOULD BE LIKE LOOKING

1682
00:58:08,000 --> 00:58:08,999
BAD WHILE YOU RAN -- SEEKING

1683
00:58:09,000 --> 00:58:09,999
FOR RE-ELECTION.

1684
00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:11,999
AND I HAVE TO SPEAK UP.

1685
00:58:12,000 --> 00:58:12,999
SO I AM NOT CONCERNED ABOUT

1686
00:58:13,000 --> 00:58:13,999
THAT.

1687
00:58:14,000 --> 00:58:14,999
AND I THINK THAT IF YOU RESPECT

1688
00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:19,999
YOUR JOB, YOU PUT YOUR HEART

1689
00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:22,999
INTO THAT, YOU NEED TO BE HONEST

1690
00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:24,999
ABOUT EVERYONE, WHETHER YOU'RE

1691
00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:25,999
BEING -- EVEN BEING TREATED WITH

1692
00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:27,999
RESPECT ABOUT YOUR JOB.

1693
00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:31,999
SO I AM GOING TO SUPPORT THIS.

1694
00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:32,999
>> Mayor Salwan: SO I HEARD A

1695
00:58:33,000 --> 00:58:34,999
COUPLE OF THINGS.

1696
00:58:35,000 --> 00:58:36,999
SOME FOLKS WANTED TO POSTPONE

1697
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:37,999
IT, SOME WANTED TO GO AHEAD WITH

1698
00:58:38,000 --> 00:58:39,999
IT.

1699
00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:40,999
SOME WANTED TO LOOK AT DIFFERENT

1700
00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:41,999
NUMBERS.

1701
00:58:42,000 --> 00:58:42,999
SO IF I COULD GET SOME FEEDBACK

1702
00:58:43,000 --> 00:58:43,999
OR A MOTION.

1703
00:58:44,000 --> 00:58:45,999
COUNCILMEMBER CAMPBELL.

1704
00:58:46,000 --> 00:58:48,999
>> Councilmember Campbell: WELL,

1705
00:58:49,000 --> 00:58:49,999
I JUST WANTED TO MAKE ANOTHER

1706
00:58:50,000 --> 00:58:52,999
COMMENT, I WAS SITTING HERE

1707
00:58:53,000 --> 00:58:55,999
LISTENING TO US AS WE TALK, AND

1708
00:58:56,000 --> 00:58:57,999
I KNOW HOW EXPENSIVE HEALTHCARE

1709
00:58:58,000 --> 00:59:00,999
CAN BE AND HOW IMPORTANT IT IS

1710
00:59:01,000 --> 00:59:03,999
TO HAVE HEALTHCARE, AND YOU

1711
00:59:04,000 --> 00:59:06,999
KNOW, I'M FORTUNATE THAT I HAVE

1712
00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:08,999
A GREAT PLAN FROM MY REGULAR

1713
00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:10,999
WORK AND SO -- AND I'VE ALWAYS

1714
00:59:11,000 --> 00:59:13,999
HAD GREAT HEALTH INSURANCE AND

1715
00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:16,999
SO -- AND I DO THINK THAT IT IS

1716
00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:17,999
IMPORTANT THAT THAT BENEFIT BE

1717
00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:18,999
OFFERED TO THE CITY

1718
00:59:19,000 --> 00:59:19,999
COUNCILMEMBERS WHO MAY NOT HAVE

1719
00:59:20,000 --> 00:59:23,999
IT.

1720
00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:25,999
MAYBE YOUNGER PEOPLE WHO COME ON

1721
00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:27,999
BOARD, IT'S VERY IMPORTANT TO

1722
00:59:28,000 --> 00:59:28,999
HAVE A REALLY GOOD HEALTH

1723
00:59:29,000 --> 00:59:31,999
INSURANCE PLAN.

1724
00:59:32,000 --> 00:59:32,999
I'VE SEEN PEOPLE WITHOUT HEALTH

1725
00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:35,999
INSURANCE.

1726
00:59:36,000 --> 00:59:38,999
I'M PUTTING ON MY -- MY DIRECTOR

1727
00:59:39,000 --> 00:59:41,999
HAT NOW, AND REALLY THINKING

1728
00:59:42,000 --> 00:59:43,999
ABOUT THE CONSEQUENCES OF NOT

1729
00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:44,999
HAVING AN ADEQUATE HEALTH

1730
00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:45,999
INSURANCE PLAN AND WHAT THAT

1731
00:59:46,000 --> 00:59:49,999
MIGHT MEAN.

1732
00:59:50,000 --> 00:59:54,999
AND I DON'T THINK $1,400 A

1733
00:59:55,000 --> 00:59:55,999
MONTH IS SOMETHING THAT'S

1734
00:59:56,000 --> 00:59:58,999
UNREASONABLE TO GIVE TO SOMEONE

1735
00:59:59,000 --> 01:00:00,999
TO BE ABLE TO HAVE AN ADEQUATE

1736
01:00:01,000 --> 01:00:03,999
HEALTH PLAN, WHICH ALSO INCLUDES

1737
01:00:04,000 --> 01:00:06,999
DENTAL AND VISION, SO IT'S A

1738
01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:09,999
FULL COMPREHENSIVE PLAN THAT

1739
01:00:10,000 --> 01:00:13,999
WOULD HELP THEM, BUT I DO THINK

1740
01:00:14,000 --> 01:00:15,999
IT'S A LITTLE PRICEY, BUT YOU

1741
01:00:16,000 --> 01:00:17,999
KNOW, MY IDEA IS THAT IF WE'RE

1742
01:00:18,000 --> 01:00:18,999
THINKING ABOUT THE FUTURE

1743
01:00:19,000 --> 01:00:20,999
COUNCILPERSONS, IT WOULD BE

1744
01:00:21,000 --> 01:00:22,999
IMPORTANT FOR THEM TO BE ABLE TO

1745
01:00:23,000 --> 01:00:23,999
AFFORD TO HAVE ADEQUATE HEALTH

1746
01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:28,999
INSURANCE.

1747
01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:29,999
>> Mayor Salwan: I'M NOT SEEING

1748
01:00:30,000 --> 01:00:31,999
ANYBODY ELSE SO I GUESS CAN WE

1749
01:00:32,000 --> 01:00:32,999
GET A MOTION OR SOME MORE

1750
01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:33,999

01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:35,999
MAKE A MOTION.

1753
01:00:36,000 --> 01:00:36,999
>> Mayor Salwan: WHAT IS YOUR

1754
01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:37,999

THIS IS ADJUSTMENT TO THE

1770
01:01:18,000 --> 01:01:18,999
SALARIES OF MAYOR AND COUNCIL.

1771
01:01:19,000 --> 01:01:21,999
AGAIN, THERE'S NO FORMAL

1772
01:01:22,000 --> 01:01:22,999
PRESENTATION, JUST QUESTIONS

1773

>> GOOD EVENING, THANK YOU FOR

1799
01:02:11,000 --> 01:02:11,999
BRINGING -- WORK ON THE

1800
01:02:12,000 --> 01:02:14,999
AGENDA.

1801
01:02:15,000 --> 01:02:15,999
I'M HERE TO OPPOSE THE PROPOSED

1802
01:02:16,000 --> 01:02:16,999
ADJUSTMENT FOR A VERY SIMPLE

1803
01:02:17,000 --> 01:02:17,999
REASON.

1804
01:02:18,000 --> 01:02:20,999
ALL CITY EMPLOYEES OF CITY AND

1805
01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:21,999
CITY COUNCILMEMBERS ARE HERE FOR

1806
01:02:22,000 --> 01:02:22,999
ONLY ONE REASON.

1807
01:02:23,000 --> 01:02:23,999
THAT IS TO SERVE THE CITY OF

1808
01:02:24,000 --> 01:02:27,999
FREMONT.

1809
01:02:28,000 --> 01:02:28,999
IF THE CITIZENS OF FREMONT ARE

1810
01:02:29,000 --> 01:02:31,999
NOT GETTING SERVED PROPERLY,

1811
01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:32,999
THEN THERE SHOULD BE NO REASON

1812
01:02:33,000 --> 01:02:35,999
FOR ANY EMPLOYEE OR

1813
01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:36,999
COUNCILMEMBER OR MAYOR TO GET A

1814
01:02:37,000 --> 01:02:41,999
RAISE.

1815
01:02:42,000 --> 01:02:42,999
AT LEAST TWO OF YOU HAVE VISITED

1816
01:02:43,000 --> 01:02:43,999
THE STREET I LIVE ON AND BOTH OF

1817
01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:47,999
YOU HAVE SAID TO ME THAT YOU

1818
01:02:48,000 --> 01:02:48,999
HAVE NOT SEEN ANY STREET AS BAD

1819
01:02:49,000 --> 01:02:50,999
AS MINE.

1820
01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:52,999
EVEN IF IT IS NOT THE WORST

1821
01:02:53,000 --> 01:02:54,999
STREET IN THE CITY, THERE SHOULD

1822
01:02:55,000 --> 01:02:59,999
BE NO STREET AS BAD AS MINE.

1823
01:03:00,000 --> 01:03:01,999
AS PEDESTRIAN PATHWAYS ARE

1824
01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:02,999
TERRIBLE AND RAISED OVER 6 TO 8

1825
01:03:03,000 --> 01:03:04,999
INCHES.

1826
01:03:05,000 --> 01:03:05,999
WE GET FLOODED EVERY -- EVEN IF

1827
01:03:06,000 --> 01:03:10,999
WE GET HALF INCH OF RAIN.

1828
01:03:11,000 --> 01:03:11,999
IT IS AN ADA NIGHTMARE TO WALK

1829
01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:13,999
ON OUR STREET.

1830
01:03:14,000 --> 01:03:16,999
AND I'M SAYING IT AGAIN, IT'S AN

1831
01:03:17,000 --> 01:03:18,999
ADA NIGHTMARE, WHICH MEANS

1832
01:03:19,000 --> 01:03:20,999
ANYBODY WHO IS AN ADA SUPPORTER

1833
01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:21,999
OR ANY ORGANIZATION CAN SUE THE

1834
01:03:22,000 --> 01:03:25,999
CITY AND WIN.

1835
01:03:26,000 --> 01:03:27,999
THAT BEING SAID, IF OUR CITY IS

1836
01:03:28,000 --> 01:03:29,999
NOT MANAGED WELL WITH OUR

1837
01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:30,999
PROPERTY TAX, I DO NOT THINK

1838
01:03:31,000 --> 01:03:34,999
ANYONE SHOULD GET ANY RAISE.

1839
01:03:35,000 --> 01:03:35,999
I WELCOME ALL OF YOU TO VISIT MY

1840
01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:36,999
STREET BEFORE GIVING ANYONE A

1841
01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:37,999
RAISE IN THE CITY.

1842
01:03:38,000 --> 01:03:41,999
INCLUDING YOURSELF.

1843
01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:43,999
I UNDERSTAND YOU MIGHT CALL IT A

1844
01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:45,999
TRIVIAL THING, YOU MIGHT SAY OH,

1845
01:03:46,000 --> 01:03:49,999
IT'S A SMALL NUMBER.

1846
01:03:50,000 --> 01:03:50,999
BUT IF -- I'M OPPOSING ANY

1847
01:03:51,000 --> 01:03:53,999
NUMBER FOR A SIMPLE REASON.

1848
01:03:54,000 --> 01:03:54,999
PLEASE SERVE YOUR CITY

1849
01:03:55,000 --> 01:03:55,999
CITIZENS.

1850
01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:56,999
THANK YOU.

1851
01:03:57,000 --> 01:04:00,999
>> Mayor Salwan: OKAY.

1852
01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:04,999
ANY -- COMMENT TIME, FEEDBACK.

1853
01:04:05,000 --> 01:04:06,999
SINCE NOBODY IS SPEAKING, I HAVE

1854
01:04:07,000 --> 01:04:07,999
BEEN TO YOUR STREET, AND WE'VE

1855
01:04:08,000 --> 01:04:09,999
HAD SEVERAL TIMES FOLKS COME OUT

1856
01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:12,999
TO YOUR STREET TO CHECK IT OUT,

1857
01:04:13,000 --> 01:04:14,999
AND FIX IT ON THE ONE SIDE, AND

1858
01:04:15,000 --> 01:04:15,999
CONTINUE TO EVALUATE IT, BUT WE

1859
01:04:16,000 --> 01:04:17,999
HAVE MANY SUCH STREETS.

1860
01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:18,999
YOUR STREET IS NOT THE ONLY

1861
01:04:19,000 --> 01:04:20,999
ONE.

1862
01:04:21,000 --> 01:04:22,999
SO IT'S 92 SQUARE MILES.

1863
01:04:23,000 --> 01:04:24,999
WE HAVE TO ADDRESS EVERY SINGLE

1864
01:04:25,000 --> 01:04:26,999
STREET AND WE DID GET THE WORST

1865
01:04:27,000 --> 01:04:28,999
100 SIDEWALKS DONE AND HOPEFULLY

1866
01:04:29,000 --> 01:04:29,999
IF WE HAVE MORE FUNDING IN THE

1867
01:04:30,000 --> 01:04:30,999
FUTURE, THEN WE CAN LOOK AT THAT

1868
01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:32,999
AGAIN.

1869
01:04:33,000 --> 01:04:33,999
WE STILL OFFER THE 50/50

1870
01:04:34,000 --> 01:04:34,999
PROGRAM.

1871
01:04:35,000 --> 01:04:37,999
SIDEWALK AND TREE.

1872
01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:39,999
SO IF YOU OR YOUR NEIGHBORS WANT

1873
01:04:40,000 --> 01:04:40,999
TO REPLACE YOUR SIDEWALK OR THE

1874
01:04:41,000 --> 01:04:41,999
TREES, THE CITIES WILL WORK WITH

1875
01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:44,999
YOU ON THAT.

1876
01:04:45,000 --> 01:04:46,999
BUT TO SAY THAT FOR THAT ONE

1877
01:04:47,000 --> 01:04:47,999
SINGLISH YOU'LL, YOU KNOW,

1878
01:04:48,000 --> 01:04:48,999
YOU'RE TAKING AWAY FROM

1879
01:04:49,000 --> 01:04:49,999
EVERYTHING OF THE CITY COUNCIL,

1880
01:04:50,000 --> 01:04:50,999
I THINK THAT'S A LITTLE TOO

1881
01:04:51,000 --> 01:04:51,999
FAR.

1882
01:04:52,000 --> 01:04:53,999
COUNCILMEMBER CAMPBELL.

1883
01:04:54,000 --> 01:04:55,999
>> Councilmember Campbell: WE

1884
01:04:56,000 --> 01:04:56,999
DIDN'T HAVE ANY MORE SPEAKERS?

1885
01:04:57,000 --> 01:04:57,999
>> Mayor Salwan: THAT WAS IT.

1886
01:04:58,000 --> 01:04:58,999
>> Councilmember Campbell: THAT

1887
01:04:59,000 --> 01:04:59,999
WAS IT?

1888
01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:00,999
OKAY.

1889
01:05:01,000 --> 01:05:01,999
FOR THIS PARTICULAR ITEM, I

1890
01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:04,999
REALLY JUST WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE

1891
01:05:05,000 --> 01:05:05,999
THAT THIS PROCESS IS A

1892
01:05:06,000 --> 01:05:09,999
PROCEDURAL PROCESS TO INCREASE

1893
01:05:10,000 --> 01:05:10,999
THE SALARIES AND THAT IT'S NOT

1894
01:05:11,000 --> 01:05:12,999
SELF-DEALING.

1895
01:05:13,000 --> 01:05:15,999
THIS PROCESS FLOWS FROM EXISTING

1896
01:05:16,000 --> 01:05:17,999
MUNICIPAL CODE FORMULA, NOT A

1897
01:05:18,000 --> 01:05:18,999
DISCRETIONARY VOTE TO PASS CITY

1898
01:05:19,000 --> 01:05:22,999
COUNCIL PAY.

1899
01:05:23,000 --> 01:05:23,999
THE ORDINANCE SETS A CEILING,

1900
01:05:24,000 --> 01:05:25,999
NOT A MANDATE.

1901
01:05:26,000 --> 01:05:27,999
COUNCIL RETAINS AUTHORITY TO

1902
01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:28,999
DECLINE, DEFER OR MODIFY THE

1903
01:05:29,000 --> 01:05:29,999
ORDINANCE.

1904
01:05:30,000 --> 01:05:32,999
THE CODE ALSO GIVES THE COUNCIL

1905
01:05:33,000 --> 01:05:33,999
THE DISCRETION TO ADJUST THE

1906
01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:34,999
CPI.

1907
01:05:35,000 --> 01:05:37,999
THE FORMULA ASSUMES NORMAL

1908
01:05:38,000 --> 01:05:38,999
ECONOMIC CONDITIONS SUCH AS

1909
01:05:39,000 --> 01:05:40,999
LOCAL WAGE GROWTH, WHICH IS NOT

1910
01:05:41,000 --> 01:05:42,999
KEEPING PACE, OF COURSE, WITH

1911
01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:43,999
HOUSING, GROCERIES, INSURANCE

1912
01:05:44,000 --> 01:05:45,999
AND CHILD CARE.

1913
01:05:46,000 --> 01:05:49,999
APPROVING AN AUTOMATIC RAISE FOR

1914
01:05:50,000 --> 01:05:51,999
COUNCIL WHILE RESIDENTS ARE ALL

1915
01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:53,999
BEHIND ON RENT, STRUGGLING TO

1916
01:05:54,000 --> 01:05:56,999
KEEP PACE WITH RISING GAS COSTS,

1917
01:05:57,000 --> 01:05:57,999
FOOD COSTS, BREAKS THE BASIC

1918
01:05:58,000 --> 01:06:00,999
ALIGNMENT BETWEEN ELECTED

1919
01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:01,999
OFFICIALS AND THE VERY PEOPLE WE

1920
01:06:02,000 --> 01:06:02,999
SERVE, AND THAT GAP IS

1921
01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:04,999
CORROSIVE.

1922
01:06:05,000 --> 01:06:06,999
REGARDLESS OF THE COUNCIL'S

1923
01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:07,999
ABILITY TO BE ABLE TO CHANGE THE

1924
01:06:08,000 --> 01:06:10,999
ORDINANCE.

1925
01:06:11,000 --> 01:06:12,999
I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO

1926
01:06:13,000 --> 01:06:14,999
DECLINE IMPLEMENTATION OF THIS

1927
01:06:15,000 --> 01:06:17,999
WAGE ADJUSTMENT FOR THE COUNCIL

1928
01:06:18,000 --> 01:06:19,999
AND DEFER IT UNTIL AFTER THE

1929
01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:22,999
NOVEMBER ELECTIONS AND TO ASK

1930
01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:25,999
STAFF TO REVIEW AND RETURN WITH

1931
01:06:26,000 --> 01:06:27,999
OPTIONS FOR SUSPENDING OR

1932
01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:30,999
RESTRUCTURING THE CPI FORMULA SO

1933
01:06:31,000 --> 01:06:34,999
THAT IT MORE ACCURATELY REFLECTS

1934
01:06:35,000 --> 01:06:35,999
WHAT RESIDENTS ARE ACTUALLY

1935
01:06:36,000 --> 01:06:36,999
EXPERIENCES.

1936
01:06:37,000 --> 01:06:40,999
EVERY CANDIDATE WHO IS RUNNING

1937
01:06:41,000 --> 01:06:42,999
FOR OFFICE IS WALKING INTO AN

1938
01:06:43,000 --> 01:06:43,999
ELECTION SEASON WHERE

1939
01:06:44,000 --> 01:06:44,999
AFFORDABILITY IS A REAL

1940
01:06:45,000 --> 01:06:49,999
CONCERN.

1941
01:06:50,000 --> 01:06:52,999
A YES VOTE IS AN ATTACK ON THEIR

1942
01:06:53,000 --> 01:06:53,999
LIVED EXPERIENCES, AND I WILL BE

1943
01:06:54,000 --> 01:06:56,999
VOTING NO ON THIS ITEM.

1944
01:06:57,000 --> 01:07:00,999
THANK YOU, MAYOR.

1945
01:07:01,000 --> 01:07:01,999
>> Mayor Salwan: MAYBE I'LL HAVE

1946
01:07:02,000 --> 01:07:02,999
THE CITY ATTORNEY KIND OF

1947
01:07:03,000 --> 01:07:04,999
EXPLAIN WHAT THIS IS AND HOW

1948
01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:06,999
THIS APPLIES.

1949
01:07:07,000 --> 01:07:07,999
AND WHEN DOES IT APPLY.

1950
01:07:08,000 --> 01:07:11,999
JUST FOR CONTEXT.

1951
01:07:12,000 --> 01:07:12,999
>> Cty. Attny. Alvarado: A

1952
01:07:13,000 --> 01:07:15,999
COUPLE POINTS.

1953
01:07:16,000 --> 01:07:17,999
THE FIRST IS THAT THE PROPOSAL

1954
01:07:18,000 --> 01:07:19,999
THIS EVENING IS TO CHANGE -- IS

1955
01:07:20,000 --> 01:07:22,999
TO AMEND THE ORDINANCE THAT

1956
01:07:23,000 --> 01:07:23,999
CURRENTLY SETS FORTH THE

1957
01:07:24,000 --> 01:07:24,999
METHODOLOGY FOR INCREASING

1958
01:07:25,000 --> 01:07:27,999
COUNCIL SALARIES.

1959
01:07:28,000 --> 01:07:28,999
IT ACTUALLY DOESN'T CHANGE THE

1960
01:07:29,000 --> 01:07:30,999
METHODOLOGY.

1961
01:07:31,000 --> 01:07:31,999
IT IMPLEMENTS THE METHODOLOGY.

1962
01:07:32,000 --> 01:07:32,999
WE'RE BEING CONSISTENT WITH WHAT

1963
01:07:33,000 --> 01:07:34,999
THE ORDINANCE ALREADY SAYS AND

1964
01:07:35,000 --> 01:07:36,999
IF THE COUNCIL CHOOSES TO MOVE

1965
01:07:37,000 --> 01:07:37,999
THIS ITEM FORWARD, IT WILL

1966
01:07:38,000 --> 01:07:39,999
INCREASE COUNCIL SALARY

1967
01:07:40,000 --> 01:07:41,999
CONSISTENT WITH THE FORMULA THAT

1968
01:07:42,000 --> 01:07:42,999
ALREADY EXISTS IN THE FREMONT

1969
01:07:43,000 --> 01:07:44,999
MUNICIPAL CODE.

1970
01:07:45,000 --> 01:07:46,999
THIS IS PART OF A PROCESS THAT

1971
01:07:47,000 --> 01:07:48,999
HAPPENS EVERY OTHER YEAR, SO THE

1972
01:07:49,000 --> 01:07:49,999
TIMING IS NOT UNIQUE OR

1973
01:07:50,000 --> 01:07:50,999
SPECIAL.

1974
01:07:51,000 --> 01:07:51,999
IT JUST SO HAPPENS THAT THIS IS

1975
01:07:52,000 --> 01:07:54,999
THE CURRENT YEAR AND AT THIS

1976
01:07:55,000 --> 01:07:58,999
TIME, IT'S PART OF THE CITY'S

1977
01:07:59,000 --> 01:07:59,999
OVERALL PROCESS TO CONSIDER THIS

1978
01:08:00,000 --> 01:08:02,999
POTENTIAL INCREASE SHOULD THE

1979
01:08:03,000 --> 01:08:03,999
COUNCIL DECIDE TO MOVE IT

1980
01:08:04,000 --> 01:08:05,999
FORWARD.

1981
01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:07,999
FURTHERMORE, THE CITY'S LOCAL

1982
01:08:08,000 --> 01:08:08,999
PROCESS IS MORE CONSERVATIVE

1983
01:08:09,000 --> 01:08:10,999
THAN STATE LAW.

1984
01:08:11,000 --> 01:08:11,999
THE CAP THAT EXISTS IN OUR

1985
01:08:12,000 --> 01:08:12,999
FREMONT MUNICIPAL CODE IS

1986
01:08:13,000 --> 01:08:15,999
ACTUALLY LOWER THAN WHAT STATE

1987
01:08:16,000 --> 01:08:17,999
LAW ALLOWS, SO THE COUNCIL HAS

1988
01:08:18,000 --> 01:08:19,999
BEEN MINDFUL OF ITS CONCERNS

1989
01:08:20,000 --> 01:08:21,999
REGARDING BUDGETARY IMPACTS AND

1990
01:08:22,000 --> 01:08:23,999
IMPACTS REGARDING THE PUBLIC.

1991
01:08:24,000 --> 01:08:26,999
AND THE PUBLIC'S BUDGET.

1992
01:08:27,000 --> 01:08:27,999
SO AGAIN, IT DOESN'T CHANGE THE

1993
01:08:28,000 --> 01:08:29,999
FORMULA.

1994
01:08:30,000 --> 01:08:32,999
IT SIMPLY USES THE FORMULA TO

1995
01:08:33,000 --> 01:08:33,999
EFFECTUATE WHAT WOULD BE A

1996
01:08:34,000 --> 01:08:34,999
SALARY INCREASE SHOULD THE

1997
01:08:35,000 --> 01:08:35,999
COUNCIL CHOOSE TO TAKE IT AT

1998
01:08:36,000 --> 01:08:36,999
THIS TIME.

1999
01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:37,999
TIMING WISE, IT'S IMPORTANT TO

2000
01:08:38,000 --> 01:08:41,999


2001
01:08:42,000 --> 01:08:45,999
THIS DISCUSSION, YOU EFFECTIVELY

2002
01:08:46,000 --> 01:08:47,999
HAVE TO WAIT TWO YEARS TO

2003
01:08:48,000 --> 01:08:51,999
INCREASE THE SALARY BECAUSE

2004
01:08:52,000 --> 01:08:52,999
YOU'RE ONLY ALLOWED TO DO THIS

2005
01:08:53,000 --> 01:08:53,999
INCREASE WHEN THERE'S GOING TO

2006
01:08:54,000 --> 01:08:54,999
BE AN OPPORTUNITY FOR NEW

2007
01:08:55,000 --> 01:08:56,999
COUNCILMEMBERS TO BE SEATED.

2008
01:08:57,000 --> 01:08:57,999
SO REALLY THIS EVENING IS THE

2009
01:08:58,000 --> 01:08:59,999
LAST OPPORTUNITY TO INTRODUCE

2010
01:09:00,000 --> 01:09:02,999
THIS ITEM IF THE COUNCIL DESIRES

2011
01:09:03,000 --> 01:09:05,999
TO MOVE THIS ITEM FORWARD SO THE

2012
01:09:06,000 --> 01:09:06,999
NEWLY ELECTED COUNCILMEMBERS AND

2013
01:09:07,000 --> 01:09:07,999
SITTING COUNCILMEMBERS THAT

2014
01:09:08,000 --> 01:09:09,999
REMAIN ON THE COUNCIL WILL BE

2015
01:09:10,000 --> 01:09:10,999
ABLE TO TAKE THIS INCREASE THIS

2016
01:09:11,000 --> 01:09:12,999
UPCOMING YEAR.

2017
01:09:13,000 --> 01:09:14,999
SO TIMING WISE, AGAIN, THIS IS

2018
01:09:15,000 --> 01:09:17,999
PART OF THE CITY'S EXISTING

2019
01:09:18,000 --> 01:09:18,999
PROCESSES AND IT'S CONSISTENT

2020
01:09:19,000 --> 01:09:19,999
WITH STATE LAW.

2021
01:09:20,000 --> 01:09:20,999
>> Mayor Salwan: I THINK WHAT

2022
01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:22,999
I'M HEARING IS WE HAVE TO ACT

2023
01:09:23,000 --> 01:09:25,999
NOW FOR THE COUNCIL THAT'S

2024
01:09:26,000 --> 01:09:26,999
ELECTED IN NOVEMBER TO RECEIVE

2025
01:09:27,000 --> 01:09:27,999
THIS SALARY INCREASE.

2026
01:09:28,000 --> 01:09:28,999
IT'S NOT IMMEDIATE, CORRECT?

2027
01:09:29,000 --> 01:09:29,999
>> Cty. Attny. Alvarado:

2028
01:09:30,000 --> 01:09:30,999
CORRECT.

2029
01:09:31,000 --> 01:09:35,999
>> Mayor Salwan: AND IF IT'S NOT

2030
01:09:36,000 --> 01:09:36,999
DONE NOW, YOU CAN'T COME BACK IN

2031
01:09:37,000 --> 01:09:37,999
JANUARY AND SAY WE NEED TO DO

2032
01:09:38,000 --> 01:09:39,999
THIS, CORRECT?

2033
01:09:40,000 --> 01:09:40,999
>> Cty. Attny. Alvarado: CORRECT

2034
01:09:41,000 --> 01:09:42,999
WITH ONE EBBS EPTION.

2035
01:09:43,000 --> 01:09:44,999
EXCEPTION.

2036
01:09:45,000 --> 01:09:46,999
THIS APPLIES TO COUNCILMEMBERS.

2037
01:09:47,000 --> 01:09:48,999
THERE'S A SEPARATE STATUTE THAT

2038
01:09:49,000 --> 01:09:49,999
DISCUSSES COMPENSATION FOR THE

2039
01:09:50,000 --> 01:09:51,999
MAYOR, BUT CITIES TYPICALLY DO

2040
01:09:52,000 --> 01:09:52,999
WHAT FREMONT DOES HERE WHICH IS

2041
01:09:53,000 --> 01:09:55,999
THEY CONSIDER ALL INCREASES AT THE SAME TIME.

2042
01:09:56,000 --> 01:09:56,999
OTHERWISE THE MAYOR'S SUMMARY IS

2043
01:09:57,000 --> 01:09:58,999
ACCURATE.

2044
01:09:59,000 --> 01:10:00,999
>> Mayor Salwan: SO IF IT'S NOT

2045
01:10:01,000 --> 01:10:01,999
PASSED, THEN THEY WOULD HAVE TO

2046
01:10:02,000 --> 01:10:03,999
WAIT UNTIL 2028?

2047
01:10:04,000 --> 01:10:04,999
OKAY.

2048
01:10:05,000 --> 01:10:05,999
>> Cty. Attny. Alvarado:

2049
01:10:06,000 --> 01:10:06,999
CORRECT.

2050
01:10:07,000 --> 01:10:07,999
>> Mayor Salwan: THANK YOU.

2051
01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:08,999
COUNCILMEMBER KIMBERLIN.

2052
01:10:09,000 --> 01:10:09,999
>> Councilmember Kimberlin:

2053
01:10:10,000 --> 01:10:13,999
THANK YOU.

2054
01:10:14,000 --> 01:10:14,999
FOR ALL THE REASONS STATED BY

2055
01:10:15,000 --> 01:10:15,999
COUNCILMEMBER CAMPBELL, I WOULD

2056
01:10:16,000 --> 01:10:17,999
LIKE TO SECOND THIS MOTION, AND

2057
01:10:18,000 --> 01:10:19,999
I ALSO WOULD LIKE TO ASK KIND OF

2058
01:10:20,000 --> 01:10:20,999
A -- PROBABLY A SILLY QUESTION

2059
01:10:21,000 --> 01:10:21,999
BUT IS IT POSSIBLE THAT WE

2060
01:10:22,000 --> 01:10:23,999
CHANGE THE MUNICIPAL CODE SO

2061
01:10:24,000 --> 01:10:24,999
THAT IT MATCHES UP WITH WHEN WE

2062
01:10:25,000 --> 01:10:25,999
DO OUR BUDGET?

2063
01:10:26,000 --> 01:10:32,999
INSTEAD OF ELECTION TIME?

2064
01:10:33,000 --> 01:10:33,999
ANYBODY KNOW?

2065
01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:36,999
>> Mayor Salwan: YES, SIR.

2066
01:10:37,000 --> 01:10:37,999
>> Cty. Attny. Alvarado: LEGALLY

2067
01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:38,999
SPEAKING, YOU CAN UPDATE YOUR

2068
01:10:39,000 --> 01:10:39,999
ORDINANCE AT ANY TIME.

2069
01:10:40,000 --> 01:10:41,999
THE LIMIT IS UPON WHEN THE

2070
01:10:42,000 --> 01:10:44,999
INCREASE CAN BE EFFECTUATED.

2071
01:10:45,000 --> 01:10:46,999
SO IF YOU DO IT NEXT YEAR, IF

2072
01:10:47,000 --> 01:10:47,999
YOU UPDATE THE ORDINANCE NEXT

2073
01:10:48,000 --> 01:10:49,999
YEAR DURING THE BUDGET CYCLE, IT

2074
01:10:50,000 --> 01:10:51,999
WILL BE AN UPDATED ORDINANCE,

2075
01:10:52,000 --> 01:10:52,999
BUT SALARY INCREASES COULD NOT

2076
01:10:53,000 --> 01:10:53,999
BE EFFECTIVE UNTIL NOVEMBER

2077
01:10:54,000 --> 01:10:56,999
2028.

2078
01:10:57,000 --> 01:10:57,999
>> Councilmember Kimberlin: WHY

2079
01:10:58,000 --> 01:10:58,999
IS THAT?

2080
01:10:59,000 --> 01:11:01,999
>> Cty. Attny. Alvarado: STATE

2081
01:11:02,000 --> 01:11:03,999
LAW DOESN'T ALLOW INCREASES TO

2082
01:11:04,000 --> 01:11:04,999
OCCUR UNTIL NEWLY ELECTED

2083
01:11:05,000 --> 01:11:08,999
COUNCILMEMBERS ARE SEATED.

2084
01:11:09,000 --> 01:11:09,999
>> Councilmember Kimberlin: SO

2085
01:11:10,000 --> 01:11:11,999
COULD WE POSSIBLY REVIEW IT

2086
01:11:12,000 --> 01:11:12,999
DURING BUDGET TIME AND APPROVE

2087
01:11:13,000 --> 01:11:13,999
THAT WITH OUR BUDGET AT THAT

2088
01:11:14,000 --> 01:11:17,999
TIME SO THAT IT'S NOT IN THE

2089
01:11:18,000 --> 01:11:19,999
FACE OF PEOPLE WHO ARE TRYING TO

2090
01:11:20,000 --> 01:11:20,999
BE ELECTED OR TRYING --

2091
01:11:21,000 --> 01:11:21,999
CAMPAIGNING OR TRYING TO SERVE

2092
01:11:22,000 --> 01:11:25,999
AND HAVING TO MAKE A DECISION

2093
01:11:26,000 --> 01:11:27,999
LIKE THAT IS VERY -- YEAH, IT

2094
01:11:28,000 --> 01:11:28,999
LOOKS VERY SELF-SERVING.

2095
01:11:29,000 --> 01:11:30,999
>> Cty. Attny. Alvarado: YOU

2096
01:11:31,000 --> 01:11:31,999
COULD DEFER THIS CONVERSATION

2097
01:11:32,000 --> 01:11:33,999
UNTIL NEXT SUMMER.

2098
01:11:34,000 --> 01:11:34,999
THAT'S NOT PRESCRIBED IN ANY WAY

2099
01:11:35,000 --> 01:11:35,999
BY STATE LAW.

2100
01:11:36,000 --> 01:11:36,999
YOU COULD DO THAT.

2101
01:11:37,000 --> 01:11:39,999
AND IF YOU DECIDE TO UPDATE THE

2102
01:11:40,000 --> 01:11:41,999
ORDINANCE AT THAT TIME TO

2103
01:11:42,000 --> 01:11:45,999
INCREASE COUNCIL SALARY, THAT

2104
01:11:46,000 --> 01:11:47,999
CAN OCCUR NEXT SUMMER, BUT THE

2105
01:11:48,000 --> 01:11:49,999
INCREASES WOULD NOT BE EFFECTIVE

2106
01:11:50,000 --> 01:11:50,999
UNTIL THE NEXT CYCLE OF NEWLY

2107
01:11:51,000 --> 01:11:53,999
ELECTED COUNCILMEMBERS ARE

2108
01:11:54,000 --> 01:11:54,999
SEATED, WHICH IS NOVEMBER --

2109
01:11:55,000 --> 01:11:57,999
WELL -- NOVEMBER 2028.

2110
01:11:58,000 --> 01:11:59,999
>> Mayor Salwan: OKAY.

2111
01:12:00,000 --> 01:12:00,999
SEEMS LIKE EVERYBODY HAS A GOOD

2112
01:12:01,000 --> 01:12:02,999
UNDERSTANDING.

2113
01:12:03,000 --> 01:12:05,999
SO WE HAVE A MOTION BY

2114
01:12:06,000 --> 01:12:07,999
COUNCILMEMBER CAMPBELL TO REJECT

2115
01:12:08,000 --> 01:12:11,999
OR DENY THE SALARY INCREASE.

2116
01:12:12,000 --> 01:12:12,999
WE HAVE A SECOND BY

2117
01:12:13,000 --> 01:12:13,999
COUNCILMEMBER KIMBERLIN.

2118
01:12:14,000 --> 01:12:14,999
IF THERE'S NO SUBSTITUTE MOTION,

2119
01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:23,999
I CAN -- WE CAN -- YES?

2120
01:12:24,000 --> 01:12:27,999
>> Councilmember Shao: I WOULD

2121
01:12:28,000 --> 01:12:29,999
MAKE A SUBSTITUTE MOTION TO

2122
01:12:30,000 --> 01:12:30,999
ACCEPT THE STAFF'S

2123
01:12:31,000 --> 01:12:32,999
RECOMMENDATION AND GO FORWARD

2124
01:12:33,000 --> 01:12:33,999
WITH THIS YEAR'S CYCLE WITHOUT

2125
01:12:34,000 --> 01:12:34,999
ANY DELAY.

2126
01:12:35,000 --> 01:12:35,999
>> Mayor Salwan: SO MOVED BY

2127
01:12:36,000 --> 01:12:36,999
COUNCILMEMBER SHAO.

2128
01:12:37,000 --> 01:12:38,999
IS THERE A SECOND?

2129
01:12:39,000 --> 01:12:39,999
>> Councilmember Zhang: I

2130
01:12:40,000 --> 01:12:40,999
SECOND.

2131
01:12:41,000 --> 01:12:41,999
>> Mayor Salwan: SECONDED BY

2132
01:12:42,000 --> 01:12:42,999
COUNCILMEMBER ZHANG.

2133
01:12:43,000 --> 01:12:45,999
SO THE SUBSTITUTE MOTION IS

2134
01:12:46,000 --> 01:12:46,999
ACTED ON PRIOR TO THE OTHER

2135
01:12:47,000 --> 01:12:47,999
MOTION.

2136
01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:49,999
SO AGAIN MOVED BY COUNCILMEMBER

2137
01:12:50,000 --> 01:12:50,999
SHAO, SECONDED BY COUNCILMEMBER

2138
01:12:51,000 --> 01:12:52,999
ZHANG.

2139
01:12:53,000 --> 01:12:53,999
THIS IS TO SUPPORT STAFF

2140
01:12:54,000 --> 01:12:54,999
RECOMMENDATION.

2141
01:12:55,000 --> 01:12:55,999
OKAY?

2142
01:12:56,000 --> 01:12:56,999
ALL RIGHT.

2143
01:12:57,000 --> 01:12:57,999
PLEASE VOTE.

2144
01:12:58,000 --> 01:12:58,999
>> Councilmember Zhang: HOW DO

2145
01:12:59,000 --> 01:12:59,999
WE DO THAT?

2146
01:13:00,000 --> 01:13:00,999
>> Mayor Salwan: SO IF YOU --

2147
01:13:01,000 --> 01:13:01,999
OKAY, SO WHAT HAPPENED IS

2148
01:13:02,000 --> 01:13:02,999
COUNCILMEMBER SHAO MADE A

2149
01:13:03,000 --> 01:13:05,999
SUBSTITUTE MOTION WHICH MEANS HE

2150
01:13:06,000 --> 01:13:07,999
WANTS TO SUPPORT THE STAFF

2151
01:13:08,000 --> 01:13:08,999
RECOMMENDATION --

2152
01:13:09,000 --> 01:13:09,999
>> Councilmember Zhang: SO WE'RE

2153
01:13:10,000 --> 01:13:10,999
GOING VOTE ON SHAO'S SUBSTITUTE

2154
01:13:11,000 --> 01:13:11,999
MOTION?

2155
01:13:12,000 --> 01:13:12,999
>> Mayor Salwan: YEAH.

2156
01:13:13,000 --> 01:13:15,999
AND I WAS GOING TO JUST SUGGEST,

2157
01:13:16,000 --> 01:13:17,999
IF IT'S OKAY, INSTEAD OF 4%,

2158
01:13:18,000 --> 01:13:18,999
COULD YOU DO 3% SO IT'S IN

2159
01:13:19,000 --> 01:13:20,999
PARITY WITH THE STAFF RAISES?

2160
01:13:21,000 --> 01:13:21,999
IS THAT SOMETHING YOU --

2161
01:13:22,000 --> 01:13:23,999
>> Councilmember Shao: YES, I

2162
01:13:24,000 --> 01:13:25,999
CERTAINLY CAN MODIFY MY ORIGINAL

2163
01:13:26,000 --> 01:13:29,999
MOTION TO CHANGE THE PERCENTAGE

2164
01:13:30,000 --> 01:13:31,999
OF INCREASE FROM 4% TO 3%, AND

2165
01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:34,999
STILL GO WITH THE CYCLE AND

2166
01:13:35,000 --> 01:13:37,999
WITHOUT ANY DELAY OR ANY IMPACT

2167
01:13:38,000 --> 01:13:38,999
ON THE INCOMING CITY

2168
01:13:39,000 --> 01:13:39,999
COUNCILMEMBERS' SALARY.

2169
01:13:40,000 --> 01:13:41,999
>> Mayor Salwan: OKAY.

2170
01:13:42,000 --> 01:13:43,999
AND THAT'S VERY GENEROUS OF YOU

2171
01:13:44,000 --> 01:13:45,999
BECAUSE YOU WON'T BE HERE.

2172
01:13:46,000 --> 01:13:46,999
>> Councilmember Shao: RIGHT,

2173
01:13:47,000 --> 01:13:47,999
FOR SOMEONE ELSE.

2174
01:13:48,000 --> 01:13:48,999
>> Mayor Salwan: COUNCILMEMBER

2175
01:13:49,000 --> 01:13:49,999
ZHANG, DOES YOUR SECOND STILL

2176
01:13:50,000 --> 01:13:50,999
STAND?

2177
01:13:51,000 --> 01:13:51,999
>> Councilmember Zhang:

2178
01:13:52,000 --> 01:13:54,999
RELUCTANTLY BECAUSE I WANTED THE

2179
01:13:55,000 --> 01:13:57,999
PUBLIC TO KNOW THAT THIS IS

2180
01:13:58,000 --> 01:14:00,999
EVERY TWO YEARS, YOU KNOW, WE

2181
01:14:01,000 --> 01:14:02,999
ARE GETTING THE CITY COUNCIL

2182
01:14:03,000 --> 01:14:03,999
EVALUATION, AND TO COME OUT WITH

2183
01:14:04,000 --> 01:14:04,999
INFLATION, ET CETERA.

2184
01:14:05,000 --> 01:14:05,999
SO IT'S EVERY TWO YEARS, IT'S

2185
01:14:06,000 --> 01:14:07,999
NOT EVERY YEAR.

2186
01:14:08,000 --> 01:14:09,999
SO IF YOU LOOK AT IF YOU

2187
01:14:10,000 --> 01:14:10,999
AVERAGED OUT, EVERY ONE YEAR,

2188
01:14:11,000 --> 01:14:12,999
YOU WILL GET 2%.

2189
01:14:13,000 --> 01:14:14,999
I MEAN, I DON'T DO THE MATH BUT

2190
01:14:15,000 --> 01:14:16,999
I REALLY THINK -- I MEAN, I

2191
01:14:17,000 --> 01:14:22,999
WOULD LIKE IN THE FUTURE FOR ALL

2192
01:14:23,000 --> 01:14:25,999
CITY COUNCILS TO USE THIS

2193
01:14:26,000 --> 01:14:27,999
CAREFULNESS AND STUDY TO FOCUS

2194
01:14:28,000 --> 01:14:30,999
ON MORE IMPORTANT ISSUES,

2195
01:14:31,000 --> 01:14:32,999
BECAUSE TO FOCUS ON SOMETHING

2196
01:14:33,000 --> 01:14:35,999
WHICH REQUIRES A LARGE AMOUNT OF

2197
01:14:36,000 --> 01:14:37,999
MONEY FOR CITIES'

2198
01:14:38,000 --> 01:14:39,999
INFRASTRUCTURE, BIG DECISION,

2199
01:14:40,000 --> 01:14:40,999
AND I THINK -- I DON'T KNOW WHAT

2200
01:14:41,000 --> 01:14:42,999
ELSE TO SAY.

2201
01:14:43,000 --> 01:14:44,999
I THINK THAT WE NEED TO HAVE A

2202
01:14:45,000 --> 01:14:45,999
BIG PICTURE AND BIG VISION FOR

2203
01:14:46,000 --> 01:14:49,999
OUR CITY.

2204
01:14:50,000 --> 01:14:51,999
AND IF WE DON'T EVALUATE OUR

2205
01:14:52,000 --> 01:14:52,999
OWN WORK, NOBODY IS GOING TO DO

2206
01:14:53,000 --> 01:14:54,999
THAT.

2207
01:14:55,000 --> 01:14:56,999
AND I ALSO THINK MAYBE IN THE

2208
01:14:57,000 --> 01:14:59,999
FUTURE, IF SOMEBODY THINKS WE

2209
01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:02,999
ARE OVERLY PAID AND THEY CAN

2210
01:15:03,000 --> 01:15:03,999
VOTE TO GET THEIR SALARY

2211
01:15:04,000 --> 01:15:04,999
INCREASE AWAY.

2212
01:15:05,000 --> 01:15:05,999
ALL RIGHT.

2213
01:15:06,000 --> 01:15:06,999
SO --

2214
01:15:07,000 --> 01:15:07,999
>> Mayor Salwan: JUST TO

2215
01:15:08,000 --> 01:15:08,999
CONFIRM, YOU'RE OKAY WITH THE

2216
01:15:09,000 --> 01:15:09,999
3%?

2217
01:15:10,000 --> 01:15:10,999
>> Councilmember Zhang:

2218
01:15:11,000 --> 01:15:11,999
RELUCTANTLY.

2219
01:15:12,000 --> 01:15:12,999
I WOULD ACTUALLY PREFER --

2220
01:15:13,000 --> 01:15:13,999
>> Mayor Salwan: BUT YOU STILL

2221
01:15:14,000 --> 01:15:14,999
SECOND, THOUGH?

2222
01:15:15,000 --> 01:15:15,999
>> Councilmember Zhang: SECOND,

2223
01:15:16,000 --> 01:15:16,999
YES.

2224
01:15:17,000 --> 01:15:17,999
>> Mayor Salwan: PLEASE VOTE.

2225
01:15:18,000 --> 01:15:18,999
OH, GO AHEAD, COUNCILMEMBER

2226
01:15:19,000 --> 01:15:19,999
KIMBERLIN.

2227
01:15:20,000 --> 01:15:20,999
>> Councilmember Kimberlin: SO I

2228
01:15:21,000 --> 01:15:21,999
THINK TIMING IS EVERYTHING AND I

2229
01:15:22,000 --> 01:15:23,999
THINK THAT'S WHAT MY PROBLEM

2230
01:15:24,000 --> 01:15:24,999
WITH THIS IS, ALIGNING WITH

2231
01:15:25,000 --> 01:15:29,999
COUNCILMEMBER CAMPBELL, THAT YOU

2232
01:15:30,000 --> 01:15:31,999
KNOW, WE HAD JUST MADE ALL

2233
01:15:32,000 --> 01:15:33,999
THESE CUTS THAT WE CAN'T BRING

2234
01:15:34,000 --> 01:15:34,999
BACK, WE'VE HAD TO REALLY

2235
01:15:35,000 --> 01:15:35,999
NEGOTIATE -- IT TOOK A LONG

2236
01:15:36,000 --> 01:15:38,999
TIME, A LOT OF NEGOTIATION WITH

2237
01:15:39,000 --> 01:15:40,999
OUR UNIONS, AND WE STILL HAVE

2238
01:15:41,000 --> 01:15:42,999
ONE THAT'S OPEN AND NOT

2239
01:15:43,000 --> 01:15:43,999
FINISHED, AND IT JUST DOESN'T

2240
01:15:44,000 --> 01:15:45,999
FEEL -- IT FEELS LIKE THE TIMING

2241
01:15:46,000 --> 01:15:47,999
IS WRONG, IT FEELS LIKE IT SENDS

2242
01:15:48,000 --> 01:15:50,999
THE WRONG MESSAGE.

2243
01:15:51,000 --> 01:15:52,999
I THINK THAT YES, WE DO VALUE

2244
01:15:53,000 --> 01:15:54,999
WHAT WE DO, BUT THE TIMING IS

2245
01:15:55,000 --> 01:15:56,999
EVERYTHING AND WE REALLY NEED TO

2246
01:15:57,000 --> 01:15:58,999
SHOW OUR PEOPLE, OUR COMMUNITY,

2247
01:15:59,000 --> 01:16:00,999
WE'RE WITH THEM.

2248
01:16:01,000 --> 01:16:02,999
I LOST MY TRAIN OF THOUGHT ON

2249
01:16:03,000 --> 01:16:03,999
SOMETHING ELSE I WAS GOING TO

2250
01:16:04,000 --> 01:16:04,999
SAY ABOUT THAT.

2251
01:16:05,000 --> 01:16:06,999
>> Mayor Salwan: WHILE YOU THINK

2252
01:16:07,000 --> 01:16:09,999
OF THAT, IT WILL ONLY AFFECT THE

2253
01:16:10,000 --> 01:16:10,999
PEOPLE THAT ARE ELECTED AT THAT

2254
01:16:11,000 --> 01:16:11,999
TIME.

2255
01:16:12,000 --> 01:16:12,999
>> Councilmember Kimberlin: AND

2256
01:16:13,000 --> 01:16:13,999
IT'S NOT A LOT OF MONEY SO I DO

2257
01:16:14,000 --> 01:16:16,999
HOPE PEOPLE -- WE KNOW IT'S NOT

2258
01:16:17,000 --> 01:16:18,999
A LOT OF MONEY, BUT IT'S THE

2259
01:16:19,000 --> 01:16:20,999
ACTION THAT -- FOR ME, ACTION

2260
01:16:21,000 --> 01:16:22,999
SPEAKS LOUDER FOR WORDS SO FOR

2261
01:16:23,000 --> 01:16:24,999
ME, THAT'S WHERE I'M AT WITH

2262
01:16:25,000 --> 01:16:25,999
THAT AND I WILL VERY STRONGLY

2263
01:16:26,000 --> 01:16:26,999
CONSIDER DONATING MY PORTION TO

2264
01:16:27,000 --> 01:16:28,999
TRI-CITY VOLUNTEERS.

2265
01:16:29,000 --> 01:16:29,999
>> Mayor Salwan: OKAY.

2266
01:16:30,000 --> 01:16:37,999
WITH THAT, LET'S VOTE.

2267
01:16:38,000 --> 01:16:38,999
MOTION PASSES, FOUR AYES, THREE

2268
01:16:39,000 --> 01:16:39,999
NAYS.

2269
01:16:40,000 --> 01:16:40,999
ALL RIGHT.

2270
01:16:41,000 --> 01:16:47,999
THANK YOU SO MUCH, STAFF.

2271
01:16:48,000 --> 01:16:48,999
NEXT WE HAVE A COUNCIL REFERRAL

2272
01:16:49,000 --> 01:16:50,999
FROM COUNCILMEMBER KENG.

2273
01:16:51,000 --> 01:16:51,999
>> Councilmember Keng: THANK

2274
01:16:52,000 --> 01:16:55,999
YOU, MAYOR.

2275
01:16:56,000 --> 01:16:56,999
COULD I HAVE OUR

2276
01:16:57,000 --> 01:16:58,999
DIRECTOR UP HERE?

2277
01:16:59,000 --> 01:17:01,999
I DON'T KNOW IF WE WILL BE

2278
01:17:02,000 --> 01:17:14,999
ALLOWING QUESTIONS.

2279
01:17:15,000 --> 01:17:17,999
>> City Mgr. Shackelford: STAFF

2280
01:17:18,000 --> 01:17:18,999
CAN ANSWER QUESTIONS BUT LIMITED

2281
01:17:19,000 --> 01:17:20,999
QUESTIONS.

2282
01:17:21,000 --> 01:17:22,999
WE HAVEN'T DONE ANALYSIS OR

2283
01:17:23,000 --> 01:17:23,999
ANYTHING LIKE THAT, BUT --

2284
01:17:24,000 --> 01:17:25,999
>> Mayor Salwan: COUNCILMEMBER

2285
01:17:26,000 --> 01:17:26,999
KENG, I THINK YOU SHOULD PRESENT

2286
01:17:27,000 --> 01:17:27,999
YOUR REFERRAL AND THEN IF NEEDED

2287
01:17:28,000 --> 01:17:28,999
STAFF CAN CHIME IN.

2288
01:17:29,000 --> 01:17:29,999
>> Councilmember Keng: OKAY.

2289
01:17:30,000 --> 01:17:31,999
ALL RIGHT.

2290
01:17:32,000 --> 01:17:32,999
SO THANK YOU, MAYOR AND

2291
01:17:33,000 --> 01:17:34,999
COLLEAGUES.

2292
01:17:35,000 --> 01:17:36,999
I'M BRINGING THIS REFERRAL

2293
01:17:37,000 --> 01:17:37,999
FORWARD BECAUSE FOR MANY YEARS I

2294
01:17:38,000 --> 01:17:39,999
HAVE HEARD FROM RESIDENTS IN

2295
01:17:40,000 --> 01:17:40,999
NORTH FREMONT ABOUT THE NEED FOR

2296
01:17:41,000 --> 01:17:41,999
A COMMUNITY SPACE CLOSER TO

2297
01:17:42,000 --> 01:17:43,999
HOME.

2298
01:17:44,000 --> 01:17:45,999
DISTRICT 1 IS A LARGE AND

2299
01:17:46,000 --> 01:17:47,999
GROWING PART OF OUR CITY, YET

2300
01:17:48,000 --> 01:17:49,999
RESIDENTS IN NORTH FREMONT HAVE

2301
01:17:50,000 --> 01:17:53,999
LIMITED ACCESS TO CITY COMMUNITY

2302
01:17:54,000 --> 01:17:54,999
FACILITIES IN THEIR IMMEDIATE

2303
01:17:55,000 --> 01:17:55,999
AREA.

2304
01:17:56,000 --> 01:17:56,999
FOR MANY FAMILIES AND ESPECIALLY

2305
01:17:57,000 --> 01:17:58,999
FOR OUR SENIORS, PARTICIPATING

2306
01:17:59,000 --> 01:18:01,999
IN PROGRAMS OFTEN MEANS

2307
01:18:02,000 --> 01:18:02,999
TRAVELING TO CENTRAL OR SOUTH

2308
01:18:03,000 --> 01:18:03,999
FREMONT.

2309
01:18:04,000 --> 01:18:04,999
THAT DISTANCE CAN BECOME A REAL

2310
01:18:05,000 --> 01:18:07,999
BARRIER TO PARTICIPATION.

2311
01:18:08,000 --> 01:18:09,999
OVER THE LAST SEVERAL DAYS WE

2312
01:18:10,000 --> 01:18:11,999
HAVE RECEIVED A SIGNIFICANT

2313
01:18:12,000 --> 01:18:12,999
AMOUNT OF CORRESPONDENCE FROM

2314
01:18:13,000 --> 01:18:13,999
RESIDENTS SUPPORTING THIS

2315
01:18:14,000 --> 01:18:16,999
REFERRAL.

2316
01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:17,999
WHAT I'VE FOUND ESPECIALLY

2317
01:18:18,000 --> 01:18:19,999
MEANINGFUL IS THE RANGE OF NEEDS

2318
01:18:20,000 --> 01:18:20,999
PEOPLE HAVE IDENTIFIED.

2319
01:18:21,000 --> 01:18:21,999
PARENTS TALKED ABOUT

2320
01:18:22,000 --> 01:18:24,999
AFTER-SCHOOL PROGRAMS, SUMMER

2321
01:18:25,000 --> 01:18:26,999
CAMPS AND YOUTH RECREATION,

2322
01:18:27,000 --> 01:18:29,999
SENIORS ASK FOR ACTIVITIES,

2323
01:18:30,000 --> 01:18:30,999
WELLNESS PROGRAMS AND PLACES TO

2324
01:18:31,000 --> 01:18:31,999
SOCIALIZE.

2325
01:18:32,000 --> 01:18:32,999
OTHERS TALKED ABOUT CLASSES,

2326
01:18:33,000 --> 01:18:34,999
CULTURAL ACTIVITIES, COMMUNITY

2327
01:18:35,000 --> 01:18:36,999
MEETINGS AND SIMPLY HAVING A

2328
01:18:37,000 --> 01:18:38,999
PLACE WHERE NEIGHBORS CAN GATHER

2329
01:18:39,000 --> 01:18:42,999
AND CONNECT.

2330
01:18:43,000 --> 01:18:43,999
ONE RESIDENT EVEN SHARED A

2331
01:18:44,000 --> 01:18:44,999
CHILDHOOD MEMORY OF GOING TO THE

2332
01:18:45,000 --> 01:18:47,999
SMALL COMMUNITY ROOM AT

2333
01:18:48,000 --> 01:18:48,999
NORTHGATE PARK FOR ACTIVITIES

2334
01:18:49,000 --> 01:18:50,999
AND ARTS AND CRAFTS DESCRIBING

2335
01:18:51,000 --> 01:18:51,999
THOSE EXPERIENCES AS THE

2336
01:18:52,000 --> 01:18:54,999
HIGHLIGHT OF HER WEEK AND SAYING

2337
01:18:55,000 --> 01:18:55,999
THAT SHE WOULD LOVE FOR TODAY'S

2338
01:18:56,000 --> 01:18:58,999
GENERATION OF CHILDREN AND TEAMS

2339
01:18:59,000 --> 01:18:59,999
TO HAVE THOSE SAME

2340
01:19:00,000 --> 01:19:01,999
OPPORTUNITIES.

2341
01:19:02,000 --> 01:19:06,999
I THINK THAT REALLY CAPTURES

2342
01:19:07,000 --> 01:19:09,999
WHAT THIS REFERRAL IS ABOUT.

2343
01:19:10,000 --> 01:19:11,999
A COMMUNITY CENTER IS MORNING A

2344
01:19:12,000 --> 01:19:12,999
BUILDING, IT IS A INFRASTRUCTURE

2345
01:19:13,000 --> 01:19:13,999
FOR COMMUNITY.

2346
01:19:14,000 --> 01:19:15,999
CHILDREN GROW UP, SENIORS STAY

2347
01:19:16,000 --> 01:19:16,999
ACTIVE AND CONNECTED, FAMILIES

2348
01:19:17,000 --> 01:19:17,999
PARTICIPATE TOGETHER AND

2349
01:19:18,000 --> 01:19:19,999
NEIGHBORS FROM DIFFERENT

2350
01:19:20,000 --> 01:19:20,999
BACKGROUNDS GET TO KNOW ONE

2351
01:19:21,000 --> 01:19:21,999
ANOTHER.

2352
01:19:22,000 --> 01:19:22,999
I ALSO WANT TO BE VERY CLEAR

2353
01:19:23,000 --> 01:19:24,999
ABOUT THE REFERRAL, IT'S ASKING

2354
01:19:25,000 --> 01:19:26,999
FOR COUNCIL TO DO TONIGHT.

2355
01:19:27,000 --> 01:19:28,999
IT IS NOT ASKING FOR US TO

2356
01:19:29,000 --> 01:19:29,999
APPROVE CONSTRUCTION OF A

2357
01:19:30,000 --> 01:19:32,999
COMMUNITY CENTER OR COMMIT THE

2358
01:19:33,000 --> 01:19:33,999
CITY TO A PARTICULAR SITE OR

2359
01:19:34,000 --> 01:19:36,999
EXPENDITURE.

2360
01:19:37,000 --> 01:19:38,999
IT IS ASKING FOR US TO TAKE THE

2361
01:19:39,000 --> 01:19:40,999
FIRST RESPONSIBLE STEP TO DIRECT

2362
01:19:41,000 --> 01:19:41,999
STAFF TO ANALYZE WHAT IS

2363
01:19:42,000 --> 01:19:43,999
POSSIBLE.

2364
01:19:44,000 --> 01:19:45,999
THAT ANALYSIS SHOULD LOOK AT

2365
01:19:46,000 --> 01:19:48,999
POTENTIAL LOCATIONS, THE TYPES

2366
01:19:49,000 --> 01:19:49,999
OF PROGRAM AND SERVICES OUR

2367
01:19:50,000 --> 01:19:50,999
RESIDENTS NEED, PRELIMINARY

2368
01:19:51,000 --> 01:19:53,999
CONSTRUCTION COSTS, POSSIBLE

2369
01:19:54,000 --> 01:19:55,999
FUNDING SOURCES AND PARTNERSHIPS

2370
01:19:56,000 --> 01:19:58,999
AND HOW THE FACILITY COULD BE

2371
01:19:59,000 --> 01:19:59,999
OPERATED SUSTAINABLY OVER THE

2372
01:20:00,000 --> 01:20:02,999
LONG RUN.

2373
01:20:03,000 --> 01:20:04,999
WE HAVE ALSO HEARD SOME

2374
01:20:05,000 --> 01:20:06,999
INTERESTING IDEAS FROM THE

2375
01:20:07,000 --> 01:20:10,999
COMMUNITY ABOUT POTENTIAL

2376
01:20:11,000 --> 01:20:11,999
LOCATIONS AND USES BUT I THINK

2377
01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:14,999
ULTIMATELY THIS REFERRAL IS

2378
01:20:15,000 --> 01:20:16,999
ABOUT EQUITABLE ACCESS TO CITY

2379
01:20:17,000 --> 01:20:18,999
SERVICES AND PLANNING FOR FUTURE

2380
01:20:19,000 --> 01:20:20,999
OF NORTH FREMONT.

2381
01:20:21,000 --> 01:20:22,999
I HOPE MY COLLEAGUES WILL

2382
01:20:23,000 --> 01:20:25,999
SUPPORT TAKING THIS FIRST STEP

2383
01:20:26,000 --> 01:20:27,999
SO WE CAN UNDERSTAND THE

2384
01:20:28,000 --> 01:20:29,999
FEASIBILITY, COST AND

2385
01:20:30,000 --> 01:20:31,999
OPPORTUNITIES ENGAGING THE

2386
01:20:32,000 --> 01:20:32,999
COMMUNITY AND BRING BACK

2387
01:20:33,000 --> 01:20:33,999
REALISTIC OPTIONS FOR COUNCIL TO

2388
01:20:34,000 --> 01:20:34,999
CONSIDER.

2389
01:20:35,000 --> 01:20:39,999
THANK YOU.

2390
01:20:40,000 --> 01:20:40,999
ANY QUESTIONS FOR COUNCILMEMBER

2391
01:20:41,000 --> 01:20:44,999
KENG?

2392
01:20:45,000 --> 01:20:45,999
GO AHEAD.

2393
01:20:46,000 --> 01:20:46,999
>> City Mgr. Shackelford: THANK

2394
01:20:47,000 --> 01:20:47,999
YOU.

2395
01:20:48,000 --> 01:20:50,999
SO THANK YOU FOR THE REFERRAL,

2396
01:20:51,000 --> 01:20:51,999
AND I JUST WANT TO TAKE THIS

2397
01:20:52,000 --> 01:20:52,999

ALL THROUGHOUT FREMONT,

2408
01:21:15,000 --> 01:21:17,999
INCLUDING NORTH FREMONT.

2409
01:21:18,000 --> 01:21:19,999
AND WE HAVE HEARD THIS COMMENT

2410
01:21:20,000 --> 01:21:20,999
ABOUT NORTH FREMONT MANY TIMES

2411
01:21:21,000 --> 01:21:22,999
BEFORE.

2412
01:21:23,000 --> 01:21:26,999
I THINK IT'S NORTHGATE PARK,

2413
01:21:27,000 --> 01:21:28,999
KIM, WHERE WE HAVE THE

2414
01:21:29,000 --> 01:21:30,999
ROOF, KIND OF LIKE THE ARBOR

2415
01:21:31,000 --> 01:21:34,999
AREA, SO THAT AREA, THAT

2416
01:21:35,000 --> 01:21:36,999
LOCATION WILL BE PROGRAMMED, YOU

2417
01:21:37,000 --> 01:21:39,999
KNOW, FOR THE YOUTH COMING UP.

2418
01:21:40,000 --> 01:21:42,999
SO I JUST WANT TO SHARE THAT AND

2419
01:21:43,000 --> 01:21:45,999
REMIND FOLKS THAT THAT WORK IS

2420
01:21:46,000 --> 01:21:50,999
HAPPENING, IT'S ONGOING, WE HAVE

2421
01:21:51,000 --> 01:21:52,999
A LOT OF OTHER HIGH PRIORITY

2422
01:21:53,000 --> 01:21:54,999
PARK ACQUISITIONS THAT WE'RE

2423
01:21:55,000 --> 01:21:55,999
WORKING ON, WE HAVE CONSTRUCTION

2424
01:21:56,000 --> 01:21:58,999
OF THE COMMUNITY CENTER AT

2425
01:21:59,000 --> 01:22:01,999
CENTRAL PARK, AND SO STAFF

2426
01:22:02,000 --> 01:22:04,999
RESOURCES ARE DEDICATED TO THOSE

2427
01:22:05,000 --> 01:22:05,999
PROJECTS, YOU KNOW, AMONG MANY

2428
01:22:06,000 --> 01:22:08,999
OTHERS.

2429
01:22:09,000 --> 01:22:10,999
SO I JUST WANT TO SET THAT STAGE

2430
01:22:11,000 --> 01:22:14,999
BEFORE THE COUNCIL MAKES A

2431
01:22:15,000 --> 01:22:16,999
DECISION ON HOW TO DIRECT

2432
01:22:17,000 --> 01:22:18,999
STAFF RESOURCES BECAUSE, YOU

2433
01:22:19,000 --> 01:22:20,999
KNOW, FOR EVERYTHING WE ADD,

2434
01:22:21,000 --> 01:22:23,999
SOMETHING HAS TO GO.

2435
01:22:24,000 --> 01:22:25,999
AND AGAIN, MY MAIN POINT IS TO

2436
01:22:26,000 --> 01:22:27,999
ASSURE THE COUNCIL THAT THIS

2437
01:22:28,000 --> 01:22:28,999
WORK IS HAPPENING ON A

2438
01:22:29,000 --> 01:22:32,999
CONTINUOUS BASIS.

2439
01:22:33,000 --> 01:22:33,999
>> Mayor Salwan: SO YOU MAKE TWO

2440
01:22:34,000 --> 01:22:34,999
POINTS.

2441
01:22:35,000 --> 01:22:35,999
ONE PART IS THE SERVICES, THE

2442
01:22:36,000 --> 01:22:36,999
OTHER PART IS THE FACILITY, SO

2443
01:22:37,000 --> 01:22:39,999
YOU'RE TRYING TO WORK ON BOTH.

2444
01:22:40,000 --> 01:22:40,999
SEEING NO QUESTIONS, MAYBE LET'S

2445
01:22:41,000 --> 01:22:41,999
GO TO COMMENTS THEN.

2446
01:22:42,000 --> 01:22:43,999
COUNCILMEMBER KIMBERLIN.

2447
01:22:44,000 --> 01:22:44,999
>> Councilmember Kimberlin:

2448
01:22:45,000 --> 01:22:45,999
THANK YOU, MAYOR.

2449
01:22:46,000 --> 01:22:46,999
AND --

2450
01:22:47,000 --> 01:22:47,999
>> Mayor Salwan: IF EVERYBODY

2451
01:22:48,000 --> 01:22:49,999
COULD JUST HIT THE BUTTON JUST

2452
01:22:50,000 --> 01:22:50,999
SO WE CAN KEEP THIS GOING?

2453
01:22:51,000 --> 01:22:51,999
YEAH.

2454
01:22:52,000 --> 01:22:52,999
>> Councilmember Kimberlin: SO I

2455
01:22:53,000 --> 01:22:53,999
JUST WANT TO SAY, I'M HAPPY TO

2456
01:22:54,000 --> 01:22:54,999
SEE THIS BROUGHT FORWARD.

2457
01:22:55,000 --> 01:22:57,999
I'VE BEEN HEARING FOR AT LEAST

2458
01:22:58,000 --> 01:22:59,999
THE LAST 10 YEARS HOW PEOPLE IN

2459
01:23:00,000 --> 01:23:00,999
NORTH FREMONT FEEL LIKE THEY'RE

2460
01:23:01,000 --> 01:23:01,999
ON AN ISLAND, THEY'RE NOT

2461
01:23:02,000 --> 01:23:02,999
CONNECTED WITH THE REST OF

2462
01:23:03,000 --> 01:23:05,999
FREMONT.

2463
01:23:06,000 --> 01:23:08,999
AND I DO REALIZE THAT NOW MAY

2464
01:23:09,000 --> 01:23:10,999
NOT BE TIME TO ASK FOR THIS BUT

2465
01:23:11,000 --> 01:23:11,999
IF WE DON'T ASK FOR IT AT SOME

2466
01:23:12,000 --> 01:23:13,999
TIME AND DON'T START WORKING ON

2467
01:23:14,000 --> 01:23:14,999
IT SO MAYBE THIS REFERRAL CAN BE

2468
01:23:15,000 --> 01:23:16,999
ON A SLOWER TRACK OR SOMETHING

2469
01:23:17,000 --> 01:23:18,999
BUT TO JUST GET IT ON THE RADAR

2470
01:23:19,000 --> 01:23:20,999
AND GET IT WORKING, EVEN IF IT

2471
01:23:21,000 --> 01:23:23,999
WORKS SLOWLY, SO THAT IT STAYS

2472
01:23:24,000 --> 01:23:24,999
ON THE RADAR, SO THAT WOULD BE

2473
01:23:25,000 --> 01:23:27,999
MY FEEDBACK.

2474
01:23:28,000 --> 01:23:30,999
>> Mayor Salwan: THANK YOU.

2475
01:23:31,000 --> 01:23:31,999
ANYBODY ELSE WANT TO CHIME IN?

2476
01:23:32,000 --> 01:23:34,999
COUNCILMEMBER SHAO?

2477
01:23:35,000 --> 01:23:35,999
>> Councilmember Shao: THOUSAND,

2478
01:23:36,000 --> 01:23:37,999
MR. MAYOR.

2479
01:23:38,000 --> 01:23:41,999
THANK YOU, MR. MAYOR.

2480
01:23:42,000 --> 01:23:45,999
IDEALLY I WOULD LIKE TO SEE

2481
01:23:46,000 --> 01:23:46,999
COMMUNITY CENTER SET UP IN VERY

2482
01:23:47,000 --> 01:23:47,999
STRATEGICALLY PLACED LOCATIONS

2483
01:23:48,000 --> 01:23:49,999
WHERE JUST LIKE OUR PARKS, WE

2484
01:23:50,000 --> 01:23:50,999
HAVE A SLOGAN LIKE WITHIN 10

2485
01:23:51,000 --> 01:23:52,999
MINUTES WALK, YOU CAN WALK TO A

2486
01:23:53,000 --> 01:23:54,999
PARK, I WOULD LIKE TO ALSO SEE,

2487
01:23:55,000 --> 01:23:59,999
YOU KNOW, MORE AND MORE

2488
01:24:00,000 --> 01:24:02,999
COMMUNITY CENTERS SPREAD OUT

2489
01:24:03,000 --> 01:24:03,999
THROUGHOUT THE CITY, THAT THE

2490
01:24:04,000 --> 01:24:08,999
CITY COUNCILMEMBER REPRESENTING

2491
01:24:09,000 --> 01:24:09,999
DISTRICT 4, I -- MISSION SAN

2492
01:24:10,000 --> 01:24:12,999
JOSÉ DOESN'T HAVE A COMMUNITY

2493
01:24:13,000 --> 01:24:16,999
CENTER, AND RIGHT NOW AS WE

2494
01:24:17,000 --> 01:24:19,999
KNOW, THE CITY IS FOCUSING ON

2495
01:24:20,000 --> 01:24:20,999
THE NEW COMMUNITY CENTER IN

2496
01:24:21,000 --> 01:24:24,999
CENTRAL PARK, AND BECAUSE OF THE

2497
01:24:25,000 --> 01:24:27,999
LACK OF FUNDING, WE HAVE CHANGED

2498
01:24:28,000 --> 01:24:28,999
THE WHOLE PROJECT INTO TWO

2499
01:24:29,000 --> 01:24:29,999
PHASES, PENDING FUTURE FUNDING

2500
01:24:30,000 --> 01:24:33,999
FOR THE SECOND PHASE.

2501
01:24:34,000 --> 01:24:36,999
THAT NOT ONLY SHOWED FLEXIBILITY

2502
01:24:37,000 --> 01:24:37,999
IN OUR PLANNING, BUT ALSO SHOWS

2503
01:24:38,000 --> 01:24:38,999
THE REALITY THAT WE JUST DON'T

2504
01:24:39,000 --> 01:24:41,999
HAVE FUNDING.

2505
01:24:42,000 --> 01:24:42,999
TALKING ABOUT WHICH WE HAVE A

2506
01:24:43,000 --> 01:24:46,999
PLAN FOR DOWNTOWN DEVELOPMENT

2507
01:24:47,000 --> 01:24:49,999
AND THEN THE NEW CITY HALL AND

2508
01:24:50,000 --> 01:24:50,999
ALL THOSE -- THEY ONLY EXIST ON

2509
01:24:51,000 --> 01:24:51,999
PAPER.

2510
01:24:52,000 --> 01:24:55,999
AND HOW MANY YEARS HAVE PASSED?

2511
01:24:56,000 --> 01:24:57,999
NOT EVEN A PENNY HAS BEEN PUT

2512
01:24:58,000 --> 01:25:03,999
INTO THAT DIRECTION.

2513
01:25:04,000 --> 01:25:04,999
SO I AGREE, YOU KNOW, IT IS

2514
01:25:05,000 --> 01:25:06,999
IMPORTANT TO DO SOME STUDY AND

2515
01:25:07,000 --> 01:25:07,999
SOME RESEARCH AND EVENTUALLY PUT

2516
01:25:08,000 --> 01:25:11,999
SOMETHING ON PAPER.

2517
01:25:12,000 --> 01:25:12,999
BUT BASED ON WHAT WE'RE FACING

2518
01:25:13,000 --> 01:25:15,999
AND WHAT HAS HAPPENED, YOU KNOW,

2519
01:25:16,000 --> 01:25:19,999
IN THE PAST, EVEN IF LET'S JUST

2520
01:25:20,000 --> 01:25:20,999
SAY THE STAFF COMES UP WITH A

2521
01:25:21,000 --> 01:25:24,999
PLAN, THAT'S JUST A PLAN.

2522
01:25:25,000 --> 01:25:25,999
AND THAT'S STILL FAR FROM

2523
01:25:26,000 --> 01:25:28,999
REALITY.

2524
01:25:29,000 --> 01:25:33,999
GIVEN THE AMOUNT OF WORK THAT

2525
01:25:34,000 --> 01:25:35,999
THE STAFF HAS ON HAND, I

2526
01:25:36,000 --> 01:25:36,999
JUST WANT TO SEE, I HAVE A

2527
01:25:37,000 --> 01:25:38,999
QUESTION WHETHER IT IS URGENT

2528
01:25:39,000 --> 01:25:41,999
FOR THIS REFERRAL OR NOT.

2529
01:25:42,000 --> 01:25:45,999
THAT'S ALL I HAVE TO SAY.

2530
01:25:46,000 --> 01:25:47,999
>> Mayor Salwan: OKAY.

2531
01:25:48,000 --> 01:25:48,999
I THINK YOU'RE SAYING IT'S A

2532
01:25:49,000 --> 01:25:50,999
QUESTION IN YOUR MIND, CORRECT?

2533
01:25:51,000 --> 01:25:52,999
>> Councilmember Shao: WHETHER

2534
01:25:53,000 --> 01:25:54,999
WE HAVE TO DO IT IN LIKE SAY

2535
01:25:55,000 --> 01:25:57,999
WITHIN HALF AN HOUR -- A YEAR TO

2536
01:25:58,000 --> 01:26:01,999
COME UP WITH SOMETHING, OR WE

2537
01:26:02,000 --> 01:26:05,999
CAN JUST, YOU KNOW, KEEP THAT ON

2538
01:26:06,000 --> 01:26:08,999
EVERYONE'S MIND AND THEN WHEN

2539
01:26:09,000 --> 01:26:12,999
WE SEE A RAY OF LIGHT FURTHER IN

2540
01:26:13,000 --> 01:26:16,999
THE HORIZON, YOU KNOW, AND OUR

2541
01:26:17,000 --> 01:26:18,999
FISCAL CONDITION GETS IMPROVED,

2542
01:26:19,000 --> 01:26:20,999
MORE CERTAINTY IN OUR FUTURE

2543
01:26:21,000 --> 01:26:22,999
FINANCE, MAYBE THAT'S A TIME

2544
01:26:23,000 --> 01:26:28,999
WHEN WE REVISIT THIS TOPIC.

2545
01:26:29,000 --> 01:26:31,999
BUT I THINK

2546
01:26:32,000 --> 01:26:32,999
COUNCILMEMBER -- I THANK

2547
01:26:33,000 --> 01:26:37,999
COUNCILMEMBER KIM FOR REMINING

2548
01:26:38,000 --> 01:26:41,999
KENG FOR REMINDING US,

2549
01:26:42,000 --> 01:26:43,999
THE FIRST YEAR WE WERE ELECTED

2550
01:26:44,000 --> 01:26:45,999
WHEN THIS REFERRAL WAS MADE SO

2551
01:26:46,000 --> 01:26:46,999
IT JUST SHOWS HOW SLOW IT IS FOR

2552
01:26:47,000 --> 01:26:49,999
THE WHOLE PROCESS TO GET MONEY

2553
01:26:50,000 --> 01:26:52,999
AND REALLY GET THINGS DONE IN

2554
01:26:53,000 --> 01:26:53,999
TERMS OF PUBLIC INFRASTRUCTURE

2555
01:26:54,000 --> 01:26:59,999
CONSTRUCTION.

2556
01:27:00,000 --> 01:27:00,999
SO I JUST WANT TO POSTPONE THIS

2557
01:27:01,000 --> 01:27:02,999
REFERRAL.

2558
01:27:03,000 --> 01:27:04,999
>> Mayor Salwan: OKAY.

2559
01:27:05,000 --> 01:27:05,999
I'LL GO AHEAD AND JUST WEIGH

2560
01:27:06,000 --> 01:27:08,999
IN.

2561
01:27:09,000 --> 01:27:10,999
I'M SUPPORTIVE OF A COMMUNITY

2562
01:27:11,000 --> 01:27:11,999
PLACE PLUS PROGRAMMING IN

2563
01:27:12,000 --> 01:27:12,999
DISTRICT 1.

2564
01:27:13,000 --> 01:27:15,999
I JUST WANT TO SEE IF WE CAN

2565
01:27:16,000 --> 01:27:16,999
ELEVATE TO ANOTHER LEVEL, IS I

2566
01:27:17,000 --> 01:27:17,999
FEEL LIKE IN THE SCHOOL

2567
01:27:18,000 --> 01:27:18,999
DISTRICT, WE HAVE LIKE THE

2568
01:27:19,000 --> 01:27:21,999
FACILITIES PLAN, AND THAT'S

2569
01:27:22,000 --> 01:27:22,999
ALWAYS LIKE A GUIDING FORCE LIKE

2570
01:27:23,000 --> 01:27:23,999
THESE ARE ALL THE NEEDS WE

2571
01:27:24,000 --> 01:27:24,999
HAVE.

2572
01:27:25,000 --> 01:27:26,999
IN THE CITY, SO WE HAVE SOME

2573
01:27:27,000 --> 01:27:29,999
THINGS THAT ARE POORLY

2574
01:27:30,000 --> 01:27:31,999
MAINTAINED, SOME THAT WE NEED TO

2575
01:27:32,000 --> 01:27:32,999
BUILD BRAND NEW.

2576
01:27:33,000 --> 01:27:33,999
IF YOU LOOK AT THIS COMMUNITY

2577
01:27:34,000 --> 01:27:35,999
CENTER, WE ACTUALLY HAD TO CLOSE

2578
01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:36,999
THE COMMUNITY CENTER AT THE

2579
01:27:37,000 --> 01:27:37,999
CENTRAL PARK BEFORE WE GOT THE

2580
01:27:38,000 --> 01:27:39,999
NEW ONE BUILT.

2581
01:27:40,000 --> 01:27:42,999
SO IT WAS ON ITS LAST LEG, AND

2582
01:27:43,000 --> 01:27:44,999
THAT KIND OF SHOWS THAT WE HAVE

2583
01:27:45,000 --> 01:27:49,999
DEFERRED MAINTENANCE AND THINGS

2584
01:27:50,000 --> 01:27:50,999
ARE NOT COMING ALONG AS

2585
01:27:51,000 --> 01:27:51,999
WE'D LIKE.

2586
01:27:52,000 --> 01:27:53,999
WE ALSO HAVE IRVINGTON LIBRARY

2587
01:27:54,000 --> 01:27:55,999
THAT HAS SOME ISSUES WHERE IT'S

2588
01:27:56,000 --> 01:27:59,999
NOT VIABLE FOR A LIBRARY.

2589
01:28:00,000 --> 01:28:00,999
SO I'D LIKE TO SEE IF WE CAN

2590
01:28:01,000 --> 01:28:03,999
MAYBE HAVE LIKE A FACILITIES

2591
01:28:04,000 --> 01:28:04,999
CONDITION PLAN, LIKE ITEMIZE ALL

2592
01:28:05,000 --> 01:28:07,999
THE DIFFERENT BUILDINGS WE HAVE,

2593
01:28:08,000 --> 01:28:10,999
THE COMMUNITY PLACES, AND SEE

2594
01:28:11,000 --> 01:28:13,999
HOW WE CAN, ONE, ANALYZE LIKE

2595
01:28:14,000 --> 01:28:14,999
THEIR HVAC, THEIR ROOFING, THE

2596
01:28:15,000 --> 01:28:15,999
INTERNAL COMPONENTS, AND SO

2597
01:28:16,000 --> 01:28:17,999
FORTH.

2598
01:28:18,000 --> 01:28:19,999
AND HAVE A STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS

2599
01:28:20,000 --> 01:28:20,999
TO SEE WHAT CONDITION THEY'RE

2600
01:28:21,000 --> 01:28:22,999
IN.

2601
01:28:23,000 --> 01:28:23,999
AND ALSO I THINK IT'S PROBABLY

2602
01:28:24,000 --> 01:28:25,999
WORTHWHILE TO KIND OF LOOK AT

2603
01:28:26,000 --> 01:28:27,999
THE SERVICE COVERAGE GAP BECAUSE

2604
01:28:28,000 --> 01:28:28,999
THERE MAY BE -- YOU KNOW,

2605
01:28:29,000 --> 01:28:30,999
SOMETIMES EMOTIONALLY WE'LL SAY

2606
01:28:31,000 --> 01:28:32,999
YEAH, DISTRICT 1 DOESN'T HAVE

2607
01:28:33,000 --> 01:28:33,999
IT, BUT SOMETIMES, HOLD ON,

2608
01:28:34,000 --> 01:28:34,999
MAYBE IT'S THAT AREA THAT'S

2609
01:28:35,000 --> 01:28:35,999
MISSING OUT AND WE HADN'T EVEN

2610
01:28:36,000 --> 01:28:37,999
THOUGHT OF THAT.

2611
01:28:38,000 --> 01:28:38,999
SO I THINK THAT WOULD NOT BE A

2612
01:28:39,000 --> 01:28:40,999
BAD IDEA TO LOOK AT.

2613
01:28:41,000 --> 01:28:42,999
AND JUST FROM A HIGHER LEVEL, IT

2614
01:28:43,000 --> 01:28:44,999
COMES DOWN TO FUNDING, SO IF

2615
01:28:45,000 --> 01:28:45,999
LET'S SAY IN THE FUTURE WE

2616
01:28:46,000 --> 01:28:48,999
DECIDE TO DO SOME BOND OR

2617
01:28:49,000 --> 01:28:50,999
SOMETHING TO FUND THE DISTRICT 1

2618
01:28:51,000 --> 01:28:52,999
COMMUNITY CENTER, YOU KNOW, WE

2619
01:28:53,000 --> 01:28:54,999
NEED EVERYBODY IN FREMONT TO

2620
01:28:55,000 --> 01:28:56,999
HAVE BUY-IN IN THAT.

2621
01:28:57,000 --> 01:28:58,999
SO YOU WANT PEOPLE IN DISTRICT

2622
01:28:59,000 --> 01:28:59,999
5, IN DISTRICT 4, IN DISTRICT 3,

2623
01:29:00,000 --> 01:29:00,999
SO THAT THERE'S SOMETHING IN IT

2624
01:29:01,000 --> 01:29:04,999
FOR THEM AS WELL.

2625
01:29:05,000 --> 01:29:06,999
SO LOS CERRITOS, I THINK IT'S

2626
01:29:07,000 --> 01:29:07,999
CALLED, I WENT THERE, IT LOOKED

2627
01:29:08,000 --> 01:29:08,999
LIKE IT WAS THE 1970s WITH THE

2628
01:29:09,000 --> 01:29:10,999
WOOD PANELS.

2629
01:29:11,000 --> 01:29:11,999
AND YOU KNOW, SOME OF OUR

2630
01:29:12,000 --> 01:29:12,999
FACILITIES ARE REALLY IN BAD

2631
01:29:13,000 --> 01:29:16,999
SHAPE.

2632
01:29:17,000 --> 01:29:17,999
SO I DO THINK WE SHOULD LOOK

2633
01:29:18,000 --> 01:29:18,999
AT THAT AND A HAVE SOME DATA

2634
01:29:19,000 --> 01:29:19,999
POINTS.

2635
01:29:20,000 --> 01:29:20,999
I THINK PART OF THE STRUGGLE

2636
01:29:21,000 --> 01:29:21,999
ALSO WITH THIS REVENUE MEASURE

2637
01:29:22,000 --> 01:29:23,999
WAS WE COULDN'T REALLY DEFINE

2638
01:29:24,000 --> 01:29:26,999
WHAT THE NEEDS ARE, YOU KNOW?

2639
01:29:27,000 --> 01:29:28,999
I REMEMBER THE SCHOOL DISTRICT

2640
01:29:29,000 --> 01:29:29,999
SAID WE HAVE A BILLION DOLLARS

2641
01:29:30,000 --> 01:29:30,999
IN WHATEVER, YOU KNOW, NEGLECTED

2642
01:29:31,000 --> 01:29:31,999
NEEDS.

2643
01:29:32,000 --> 01:29:32,999
WE DON'T HAVE A NUMBER, YOU

2644
01:29:33,000 --> 01:29:34,999
KNOW?

2645
01:29:35,000 --> 01:29:39,999
AND SO IF WE KNOW THAT, YOU

2646
01:29:40,000 --> 01:29:41,999
KNOW, CERRITOS NEEDS THIS, THE

2647
01:29:42,000 --> 01:29:45,999
OTHER IRVINGTON LIBRARY NEEDS A

2648
01:29:46,000 --> 01:29:47,999
NEW ROOF OR WHATEVER, I THINK AT

2649
01:29:48,000 --> 01:29:50,999
LEAST WE CAN PLAN FOR THAT, SO

2650
01:29:51,000 --> 01:29:51,999
THAT WAY IT'S NOT LIKE A ONE OFF

2651
01:29:52,000 --> 01:29:52,999
LIKE TOMORROW COUNCILMEMBER

2652
01:29:53,000 --> 01:29:53,999
ZHANG DOESN'T SAY I NEED A

2653
01:29:54,000 --> 01:29:54,999
MISSION SAN JOSÉ COMMUNITY

2654
01:29:55,000 --> 01:29:55,999
CENTER.

2655
01:29:56,000 --> 01:29:57,999
OR -- SO I THINK THAT'S WHAT I

2656
01:29:58,000 --> 01:30:01,999
WOULD TRY TO LOOK AT, IS HOW DO

2657
01:30:02,000 --> 01:30:02,999
WE NOT ONLY LOOK AT

2658
01:30:03,000 --> 01:30:03,999
DISTRICT 1, OVERALL

2659
01:30:04,000 --> 01:30:04,999
COMPREHENSIVELY LOOK AT THAT.

2660
01:30:05,000 --> 01:30:06,999
I THINK THAT WOULD BE RATHER

2661
01:30:07,000 --> 01:30:07,999
HELPFUL, WHETHER WE DO A REVENUE

2662
01:30:08,000 --> 01:30:09,999
MEASURE THROUGH SALES TAX OR A

2663
01:30:10,000 --> 01:30:10,999
BOND OR SOMETHING, BECAUSE THEN

2664
01:30:11,000 --> 01:30:12,999
IT'S TANGIBLE FOR PEOPLE.

2665
01:30:13,000 --> 01:30:14,999
I LIVE IN DISTRICT 3, AND I'M

2666
01:30:15,000 --> 01:30:17,999
GOING TO -- MY COMMUNITY CENTER

2667
01:30:18,000 --> 01:30:18,999
IS GOING TO BE IMPROVED.

2668
01:30:19,000 --> 01:30:19,999
I'M IN DISTRICT 1, I'M GOING TO

2669
01:30:20,000 --> 01:30:21,999
GET A ROBUST COMMUNITY CENTER.

2670
01:30:22,000 --> 01:30:23,999
AND THEN IT'S REAL, IT'S NOT

2671
01:30:24,000 --> 01:30:24,999
JUST SOMETHING ON PAPER THAT WE

2672
01:30:25,000 --> 01:30:26,999
LIKE TO SEE SOMEDAY, IT'S

2673
01:30:27,000 --> 01:30:28,999
SOMETHING LIKE, HEY, WE CAN GO

2674
01:30:29,000 --> 01:30:29,999
OUT AND SAY THESE ARE THE NEEDS

2675
01:30:30,000 --> 01:30:30,999
WE HAVE IN OUR COMMUNITY.

2676
01:30:31,000 --> 01:30:31,999
SO SOMETHING I WOULD LIKE ALL OF

2677
01:30:32,000 --> 01:30:32,999
US TO THINK ABOUT AND I FEEL

2678
01:30:33,000 --> 01:30:36,999
LIKE SOMETHING -- MAYBE ONE

2679
01:30:37,000 --> 01:30:39,999
THING WE HAVE

2680
01:30:40,000 --> 01:30:40,999
THAT IS MORE THAN THE CITY

2681
01:30:41,000 --> 01:30:43,999
MANAGER WANTS TO HEAR.

2682
01:30:44,000 --> 01:30:45,999
I'LL HAVE HER WEIGH IN ANY FEET

2683
01:30:46,000 --> 01:30:48,999
BACK OR CONCERNS.

2684
01:30:49,000 --> 01:30:50,999
WE'RE GOING TO OPEN IT UP, YEAH,

2685
01:30:51,000 --> 01:30:51,999
YES, SIR.

2686
01:30:52,000 --> 01:30:55,999
>> Karena Shackelford:   THANK

2687
01:30:56,000 --> 01:30:57,999
YOU, MAYOR SALWAN.

2688
01:30:58,000 --> 01:31:00,999
SO THE FACILITIES PLAN THAT YOU

2689
01:31:01,000 --> 01:31:01,999
SPEAK OF, SO YES, WE DO HAVE

2690
01:31:02,000 --> 01:31:02,999
ONE.

2691
01:31:03,000 --> 01:31:05,999
AND WE WILL BE UPDATING IT.

2692
01:31:06,000 --> 01:31:06,999
I THINK IT WAS LAST UPDATED

2693
01:31:07,000 --> 01:31:08,999
SEVERAL YEARS AGO.

2694
01:31:09,000 --> 01:31:09,999
SO YOUR POINT ON THAT IS WELL

2695
01:31:10,000 --> 01:31:10,999
TAKEN.

2696
01:31:11,000 --> 01:31:13,999
AND THEN AS FAR AS PARKS AND

2697
01:31:14,000 --> 01:31:16,999
COMMUNITIES CENTERS, I THINK THE

2698
01:31:17,000 --> 01:31:17,999
PARKS MASTER PLAN IT DOES

2699
01:31:18,000 --> 01:31:18,999
EXACTLY, YOU KNOW, WHAT YOU'RE

2700
01:31:19,000 --> 01:31:21,999
SUGGESTING IN TERMS OF

2701
01:31:22,000 --> 01:31:24,999
IDENTIFYING AREAS WHERE WE NEED

2702
01:31:25,000 --> 01:31:25,999
MORE RECREATION AND COMMUNITY

2703
01:31:26,000 --> 01:31:26,999
AREAS.

2704
01:31:27,000 --> 01:31:27,999
SO THAT, YOU KNOW, THAT IS

2705
01:31:28,000 --> 01:31:29,999
ALREADY IN PLACE.

2706
01:31:30,000 --> 01:31:30,999
BUT IT'S NEVER TOO LATE TO, YOU

2707
01:31:31,000 --> 01:31:34,999
KNOW, TO UPDATE THINGS.

2708
01:31:35,000 --> 01:31:36,999
SO THAT'S NOT A PROBLEM.

2709
01:31:37,000 --> 01:31:37,999
AND SO I THINK THOSE ARE GOOD

2710
01:31:38,000 --> 01:31:40,999
POINTS.

2711
01:31:41,000 --> 01:31:42,999
AND SOME WORK IS ALREADY DONE

2712
01:31:43,000 --> 01:31:43,999
AND SOME WORK IS UNDERWAY.

2713
01:31:44,000 --> 01:31:44,999
>> Mayor Salwan:   GOOD.

2714
01:31:45,000 --> 01:31:46,999
I TRIED TO LOOK UP THE FACILITY

2715
01:31:47,000 --> 01:31:48,999
PLAN, I COULDN'T FIND ONE.

2716
01:31:49,000 --> 01:31:50,999
AND THE PARK MASTER PLAN, IT IS

2717
01:31:51,000 --> 01:31:51,999
JUST A HIGH LEVEL NEEDS BUT I

2718
01:31:52,000 --> 01:31:53,999
DON'T THINK IT'S BEEN FLUSHED

2719
01:31:54,000 --> 01:31:57,999
IDENTITY, LOOKING AT THE

2720
01:31:58,000 --> 01:31:58,999
ROOFING, THE HVAC, THE

2721
01:31:59,000 --> 01:32:00,999
STRUCTURAL COMPONENTS.

2722
01:32:01,000 --> 01:32:03,999
IF WE CAN GO A LITTLE BIT

2723
01:32:04,000 --> 01:32:06,999
DEEPER, WE HAVE 100,000 NEEDED

2724
01:32:07,000 --> 01:32:08,999
HERE, WE HAVE 50 NEEDED HERE,

2725
01:32:09,000 --> 01:32:10,999
THAT CAN BE MORE TANGIBLE.

2726
01:32:11,000 --> 01:32:13,999
I THINK THE COMMUNITY IS MORE

2727
01:32:14,000 --> 01:32:14,999
WILLING TO SPEND MONEY WHEN THEY

2728
01:32:15,000 --> 01:32:16,999
KNOW EXACTLY WHERE IT'S GOING TO

2729
01:32:17,000 --> 01:32:18,999
GO, RATHER THAN OKAY, THEY ARE

2730
01:32:19,000 --> 01:32:20,999
GOING TO MAKE MORE MONEY FOR

2731
01:32:21,000 --> 01:32:22,999
SALARIES, SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

2732
01:32:23,000 --> 01:32:26,999
THIS IS ME TALKING OUTLOUD.

2733
01:32:27,000 --> 01:32:27,999
I'M TRYING TO LOOK AT THE LONG

2734
01:32:28,000 --> 01:32:30,999
TERM VISION, RATHER THAN THE

2735
01:32:31,000 --> 01:32:32,999
ONE OFF REFERRAL.

2736
01:32:33,000 --> 01:32:34,999
TRYING TO GET THINGS DONE.

2737
01:32:35,000 --> 01:32:38,999
IF YOU WANT TO HEAR THE SPEAKERS

2738
01:32:39,000 --> 01:32:40,999
AND COME BACK OR SPEAK NOW?

2739
01:32:41,000 --> 01:32:42,999
>> Councilmember Zhang:   YES,

2740
01:32:43,000 --> 01:32:44,999
FROM WHAT YOU SAID, REMIND ME

2741
01:32:45,000 --> 01:32:46,999
WHEN I WAS WORKING IN THE SCHOOL

2742
01:32:47,000 --> 01:32:47,999
DISTRIBUTE AND WE PASSED MEASURE

2743
01:32:48,000 --> 01:32:48,999
M.

2744
01:32:49,000 --> 01:32:51,999
WE HAVE TO COME WITH A VERY

2745
01:32:52,000 --> 01:32:54,999
DETAILED PLAN OF WHY WE NEED TO

2746
01:32:55,000 --> 01:32:58,999
HAVE THIS DOLLAR AMOUNT ATTACHED

2747
01:32:59,000 --> 01:33:00,999
TO THE MEASURE M BECAUSE WE HAVE

2748
01:33:01,000 --> 01:33:03,999
SO MANY PROGRAMS IN THE PLAN,

2749
01:33:04,000 --> 01:33:06,999
AND EACH SCHOOL AND THE

2750
01:33:07,000 --> 01:33:07,999
FACILITIES AND WHAT'S THE DOLLAR

2751
01:33:08,000 --> 01:33:09,999
AMOUNT ATTACHED TO THAT.

2752
01:33:10,000 --> 01:33:13,999
AND THAT WOULD CONVINCE THE

2753
01:33:14,000 --> 01:33:16,999
CITIZEN TO PASS THE MEASURE.

2754
01:33:17,000 --> 01:33:18,999
IRTHINK IF WE WANT TO MOVE

2755
01:33:19,000 --> 01:33:20,999
FORWARD WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE

2756
01:33:21,000 --> 01:33:22,999
THING WE HAVE TO START THERE.

2757
01:33:23,000 --> 01:33:26,999
I THINK I WOULD SUPPORT THAT TO

2758
01:33:27,000 --> 01:33:27,999
WORK ON THE FACILITIES PLAN AND

2759
01:33:28,000 --> 01:33:29,999
THE PARK RECREATION UPDATE.

2760
01:33:30,000 --> 01:33:31,999
AND THEN WE CAN LOOK OVERALL

2761
01:33:32,000 --> 01:33:33,999
WHICH PLACE WE CAN PUT, OF

2762
01:33:34,000 --> 01:33:34,999
COURSE I KNOW DISTRICT 1 IS IN

2763
01:33:35,000 --> 01:33:36,999
NEED.

2764
01:33:37,000 --> 01:33:38,999
BUT ALSO MY SECOND THOUGHT IS

2765
01:33:39,000 --> 01:33:39,999
WITH THE CURRENT DOWNTOWN

2766
01:33:40,000 --> 01:33:41,999
CENTER, IS IN USE AND WE'RE

2767
01:33:42,000 --> 01:33:43,999
GOING TO BUILD A NEW ONE AND

2768
01:33:44,000 --> 01:33:44,999
THEN THAT'S GOING TO IN TWO

2769
01:33:45,000 --> 01:33:46,999
YEARS RIGHT?

2770
01:33:47,000 --> 01:33:47,999
WE'RE GOING TO OPEN UP MORE

2771
01:33:48,000 --> 01:33:48,999
CAPACITIES.

2772
01:33:49,000 --> 01:33:49,999
SO WHETHER THAT WOULD ALSO SOLVE

2773
01:33:50,000 --> 01:33:50,999
SOME OF THE ISSUES.

2774
01:33:51,000 --> 01:33:51,999
YES.

2775
01:33:52,000 --> 01:33:53,999
>> Mayor Salwan:   OKAY, SO I

2776
01:33:54,000 --> 01:33:54,999
SEE TWO MORE COUNCILMEMBERS WANT

2777
01:33:55,000 --> 01:33:56,999
TO SPEAK.

2778
01:33:57,000 --> 01:33:57,999
DO YOU WANT TO TO OPEN IT UP

2779
01:33:58,000 --> 01:33:59,999
STORE THE PUBLIC?

2780
01:34:00,000 --> 01:34:02,999
OKAY, LET'S GIVE IT TO THE

2781
01:34:03,000 --> 01:34:03,999
PUBLIC.

2782
01:34:04,000 --> 01:34:05,999
>> Alberto Quintanilla:   WE

2783
01:34:06,000 --> 01:34:08,999
HAVE THREE SPEAKERS CARDS.

2784
01:34:09,000 --> 01:34:09,999
>> Mayor Salwan:   THREE MINUTES

2785
01:34:10,000 --> 01:34:13,999
EACH.

2786
01:34:14,000 --> 01:34:16,999
>> Alberto Quintanilla:

2787
01:34:17,000 --> 01:34:19,999
(SAYING NAMES).

2788
01:34:20,000 --> 01:34:23,999
>> GOOD EVENING, I'M JAMES, I

2789
01:34:24,000 --> 01:34:24,999
LIVE ON DISTRICT 1 ON LAKE

2790
01:34:25,000 --> 01:34:27,999
READ.

2791
01:34:28,000 --> 01:34:30,999
I'VE LID THERE SINCE 1999.

2792
01:34:31,000 --> 01:34:31,999
I'VE RAISED MY KIDS THERE, I'M

2793
01:34:32,000 --> 01:34:32,999
NOW RAISING MY GRANDDAUGHTER

2794
01:34:33,000 --> 01:34:33,999
THERE.

2795
01:34:34,000 --> 01:34:36,999
THE HIGHWAYS THAT ARE THERE

2796
01:34:37,000 --> 01:34:37,999
WOULD MAKE GREAT FACILITIES AND

2797
01:34:38,000 --> 01:34:39,999
HAVE HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE AS

2798
01:34:40,000 --> 01:34:41,999
WELL.

2799
01:34:42,000 --> 01:34:43,999
AND IT COULD BE A GREAT CULTURAL

2800
01:34:44,000 --> 01:34:45,999
CENTER.

2801
01:34:46,000 --> 01:34:48,999
THE REASON I CAME TONIGHT IS

2802
01:34:49,000 --> 01:34:49,999
BECAUSE I JUST RECENTLY FOUND

2803
01:34:50,000 --> 01:34:53,999
OUT THAT THE RESIDENTS THAT WERE

2804
01:34:54,000 --> 01:34:56,999
THERE HAVE BEEN EVICTED, AND

2805
01:34:57,000 --> 01:34:58,999
THAT THE CURRENT PLAN AT LEAST

2806
01:34:59,000 --> 01:35:01,999
FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND IS TO

2807
01:35:02,000 --> 01:35:02,999
MOTH BALL THEM UNTIL FURTHER

2808
01:35:03,000 --> 01:35:04,999
NOTICE.

2809
01:35:05,000 --> 01:35:09,999
THAT CONCERNS ME, FROM A

2810
01:35:10,000 --> 01:35:12,999
TRANSIENT PERSPECTIVE.

2811
01:35:13,000 --> 01:35:14,999
ADDITIONALLY I THINK, FROM WHAT

2812
01:35:15,000 --> 01:35:16,999
I HAVE READ, THE ONLY NUMBERS

2813
01:35:17,000 --> 01:35:19,999
THAT WERE PRESENTED WERE FOR

2814
01:35:20,000 --> 01:35:23,999
DEMOLITION, AND NOT FOR OTHER

2815
01:35:24,000 --> 01:35:26,999
OPTIONS THAT WOULD BE AVAILABLE.

2816
01:35:27,000 --> 01:35:30,999
IF THOSE WERE RESTORED.

2817
01:35:31,000 --> 01:35:32,999
I THINK IT'S ONLY FAIR THAT YOU

2818
01:35:33,000 --> 01:35:33,999
LOOK AT BOTH SIDES OF THE

2819
01:35:34,000 --> 01:35:35,999
POINT.

2820
01:35:36,000 --> 01:35:36,999
YES, I KNOW MONEY'S TIGHT, TIGHT

2821
01:35:37,000 --> 01:35:40,999
EVERYWHERE.

2822
01:35:41,000 --> 01:35:42,999
THIS DOES NOTE HAVE TO BE A SLAM

2823
01:35:43,000 --> 01:35:44,999
DUNK RIGHT TODAY SORT OF THING,

2824
01:35:45,000 --> 01:35:45,999
IT COULD BE AN INCREMENTAL

2825
01:35:46,000 --> 01:35:46,999
APPROACH.

2826
01:35:47,000 --> 01:35:49,999
BUT I ALSO THINK IT COULD ALSO

2827
01:35:50,000 --> 01:35:53,999
BE A WIN-WIN SITUATION.

2828
01:35:54,000 --> 01:35:54,999
BECAUSE THE CERT TEAM, COMMUNITY

2829
01:35:55,000 --> 01:35:55,999
EMERGENCY RESPONSE TEAM IS ALSO

2830
01:35:56,000 --> 01:35:57,999
LOOKING FOR PLACES TO PUT

2831
01:35:58,000 --> 01:35:59,999
RESOURCES ON THAT SIDE OF THE

2832
01:36:00,000 --> 01:36:03,999
COMMUNITY, BECAUSE THE CLOSEST

2833
01:36:04,000 --> 01:36:04,999
ONE IS ARDENWOOD AND AN

2834
01:36:05,000 --> 01:36:06,999
EARTHQUAKE ISN'T GOING TO DO US

2835
01:36:07,000 --> 01:36:07,999
ANY GOOD IN THAT AREA.

2836
01:36:08,000 --> 01:36:09,999
SO I THINK THERE ARE SOME THINGS

2837
01:36:10,000 --> 01:36:12,999
THAT IF THE COUNCIL WOULD TAKE A

2838
01:36:13,000 --> 01:36:16,999
WHAT IF APPROACH AND

2839
01:36:17,000 --> 01:36:21,999
PERSPECTIVE, ASK AND I

2840
01:36:22,000 --> 01:36:22,999
APPRECIATE COUNCILMEMBER KENG

2841
01:36:23,000 --> 01:36:23,999
--

2842
01:36:24,000 --> 01:36:26,999
>> Alberto Quintanilla:   NEXT

2843
01:36:27,000 --> 01:36:27,999
SPEAKER, (SAYING NAMES) FOLLOWED

2844
01:36:28,000 --> 01:36:28,999
BY SPHAIMS NAPLES.

2845
01:36:29,000 --> 01:36:29,999
>> GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND

YEARS AGO I LIVED AT WATERTOWN

MASSACHUSETTS, MET THIS SWEET

2850
01:36:43,000 --> 01:36:47,999
OLD LADY WHO TOLD ME ABOUT

2851
01:36:48,000 --> 01:36:50,999
HER DECEASED HUSBAND WHO SERVED

2852
01:36:51,000 --> 01:36:52,999
IN WORLD WAR TWO.

2853
01:36:53,000 --> 01:36:53,999
A COMMUNITY CENTER IS REALLY A

2854
01:36:54,000 --> 01:36:55,999
PLACE WHERE YOU ACTUALLY BUILD A

2855
01:36:56,000 --> 01:36:59,999
COMMUNITY ACROSS GENERATIONS AND

2856
01:37:00,000 --> 01:37:01,999
THE REALITIES WE INCREASING

2857
01:37:02,000 --> 01:37:02,999
PLACES THAT BRING GENERATION,

2858
01:37:03,000 --> 01:37:03,999
JUST THINK ABOUT WHAT A

2859
01:37:04,000 --> 01:37:04,999
COMMUNITY CENTER COULD AND MIGHT

2860
01:37:05,000 --> 01:37:06,999
BECOME.

2861
01:37:07,000 --> 01:37:09,999
THIS IS NOT A MY STREET MY

2862
01:37:10,000 --> 01:37:14,999
BACKYARD MY ISSUE THERE ARE I'M

2863
01:37:15,000 --> 01:37:16,999
GOING TO INDICT YOU PUBLICLY,

2864
01:37:17,000 --> 01:37:17,999
THIS IS ABOUT A WE, IT IS

2865
01:37:18,000 --> 01:37:20,999
THOUGHT A ME QUESTION, RIGHT?

2866
01:37:21,000 --> 01:37:21,999
SO WHAT CAN WE DO TO OWN VISION,

2867
01:37:22,000 --> 01:37:23,999
IMAGINE A COMMUNITY CENTER OF

2868
01:37:24,000 --> 01:37:24,999
THE FUTURE THAT CAN SERVE THIS

2869
01:37:25,000 --> 01:37:25,999
COMMUNITY FOR THE NEXT 250

2870
01:37:26,000 --> 01:37:26,999
CAREERS?

2871
01:37:27,000 --> 01:37:27,999
WHAT KIND OF LEGACY WOULD YOU

2872
01:37:28,000 --> 01:37:31,999
LIKE TO LEAVE BEHIND, RIGHT?

2873
01:37:32,000 --> 01:37:32,999
SO I WOULD ASK THIS COUNCIL AND

2874
01:37:33,000 --> 01:37:34,999
ENCOURAGE THIS COUNCIL TO ASK

2875
01:37:35,000 --> 01:37:36,999
STAFF TO THINK BIGGER, THINK

2876
01:37:37,000 --> 01:37:38,999
BROADER, THINK BEYOND THE

2877
01:37:39,000 --> 01:37:39,999
LIMITATIONS OF WHAT CONSTRAIN US

2878
01:37:40,000 --> 01:37:40,999
TODAY AND THINK ABOUT THE KIND

2879
01:37:41,000 --> 01:37:42,999
OF LEGACY AND THE KIND OF

2880
01:37:43,000 --> 01:37:43,999
HISTORY THAT YOU WISH TO CREATE,

2881
01:37:44,000 --> 01:37:45,999
RIGHT?

2882
01:37:46,000 --> 01:37:52,999

2883
01:37:53,000 --> 01:37:54,999
FROM NOW, SOMEBODY IS GOING TO

2884
01:37:55,000 --> 01:37:55,999
LOOK BACK AND SAY IT IS THOUGHT

01:40:22,000 --> 01:40:22,999
AND I DON'T KNOW IF STAFF CAN

2946
01:40:23,000 --> 01:40:24,999
ANSWER.

2947
01:40:25,000 --> 01:40:27,999
BUT THE FIRST GENTLEMAN, WHICH

2948
01:40:28,000 --> 01:40:29,999
LOCATION WAS HE REFERRING TO?

2949
01:40:30,000 --> 01:40:30,999
THE SAME ONE.

2950
01:40:31,000 --> 01:40:31,999
OH, OKAY.

2951
01:40:32,000 --> 01:40:34,999
GOT IT.

2952
01:40:35,000 --> 01:40:35,999
OKAY, COUNCILMEMBER CAMPBELL.

2953
01:40:36,000 --> 01:40:37,999
>> Councilmember Campbell:   I

2954
01:40:38,000 --> 01:40:39,999
WAS SORT OF THINKING ALONG THE

2955
01:40:40,000 --> 01:40:42,999
SAME LINES BUT I HADN'T THOUGHT

2956
01:40:43,000 --> 01:40:45,999
ABOUT THE HARVEY HOUSE OR THE

2957
01:40:46,000 --> 01:40:46,999
SIL VEST TEFER PARK, IF WE COULD

2958
01:40:47,000 --> 01:40:47,999
DOUGH SORT OF A PHASED IN

2959
01:40:48,000 --> 01:40:49,999
APPROACH.

2960
01:40:50,000 --> 01:40:52,999
I WAS THINKING BASED ON AT LEAST

2961
01:40:53,000 --> 01:40:53,999
THE REFERRAL THEY WERE LOOKING

2962
01:40:54,000 --> 01:40:55,999
AT PROGRAMS AS WELL, IF YOU

2963
01:40:56,000 --> 01:40:59,999
ALREADY HAVE A STRUCTURE THERE,

2964
01:41:00,000 --> 01:41:01,999
WHY COULDN'T YOU USE THE

2965
01:41:02,000 --> 01:41:02,999
STRUCTURE TO DO SOME OF THE

2966
01:41:03,000 --> 01:41:04,999
PROGRAMMATIC REQUESTS THAT ARE

2967
01:41:05,000 --> 01:41:05,999
HERE, AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAMS IF

2968
01:41:06,000 --> 01:41:08,999
THE FACILITY STILL EXISTS WHILE

2969
01:41:09,000 --> 01:41:09,999
WE DO THE OTHER THINGS YOUR LONG

2970
01:41:10,000 --> 01:41:11,999
RANGE PLAN, I LOVE THE IDEA

2971
01:41:12,000 --> 01:41:14,999
ABOUT THE LONG RANGE FACILITIES

2972
01:41:15,000 --> 01:41:15,999
PLAN, I WAS PART OF THE SCHOOL

2973
01:41:16,000 --> 01:41:16,999
BOARD WHEN WE DID IT.

2974
01:41:17,000 --> 01:41:17,999
>> Mayor Salwan:   HEARD THERE

2975
01:41:18,000 --> 01:41:18,999
YOU GUYS.

2976
01:41:19,000 --> 01:41:19,999
>> Councilmember Campbell:

2977
01:41:20,000 --> 01:41:20,999
THANK YOU.

2978
01:41:21,000 --> 01:41:22,999
IT WAS A GREAT PROCESS, VERY

2979
01:41:23,000 --> 01:41:23,999
COMMUNITY DRIVEN AS WELL FOR

2980
01:41:24,000 --> 01:41:24,999
EACH OF THE SCHOOL DISTRICTS

2981
01:41:25,000 --> 01:41:25,999
THAT WERE THERE.

2982
01:41:26,000 --> 01:41:28,999
WE DID COME UP WITH THE BILLION

2983
01:41:29,000 --> 01:41:30,999
DOLLARS OF UNMET NEEDS BASED ON

2984
01:41:31,000 --> 01:41:31,999
ALL OF THE SCHOOLS THAT WE

2985
01:41:32,000 --> 01:41:33,999
HAVE.

2986
01:41:34,000 --> 01:41:35,999
BUT WE ALSO HAVE MORE SCHOOLS,

2987
01:41:36,000 --> 01:41:37,999
AND SO IT WOULD PROBABLY BE A

2988
01:41:38,000 --> 01:41:39,999
LESS OF A FINANCIAL BURDEN.

2989
01:41:40,000 --> 01:41:41,999
BUT MY POINT IS THAT WHILE WE'RE

2990
01:41:42,000 --> 01:41:43,999
DOING WHAT WE WOULD HOPE TO DO,

2991
01:41:44,000 --> 01:41:46,999
IF WE COULD USE WHAT WE ALREADY

2992
01:41:47,000 --> 01:41:48,999
HAVE, REPURPOSE IT, TORE SOME OF

2993
01:41:49,000 --> 01:41:53,999
THE PROGRAMS THAT ARE IN THIS

2994
01:41:54,000 --> 01:41:55,999
REFERRAL, WE MAY BE ABLE

2995
01:41:56,000 --> 01:41:57,999
TO KILL TWO BIRDS WITH ONE

2996
01:41:58,000 --> 01:41:59,999
STONE FOR LACK OF A BETTER WORD

2997
01:42:00,000 --> 01:42:01,999
AND OFFER THAT COMMUNITY SOME

2998
01:42:02,000 --> 01:42:04,999
SERVICES OR SOME PROGRAMS SOME

2999
01:42:05,000 --> 01:42:08,999
RECREATION PROGRAMS IN OUR

3000
01:42:09,000 --> 01:42:09,999
RAILROAD-EXISTING FACILITIES.

3001
01:42:10,000 --> 01:42:10,999
>> Mayor Salwan:   DOES THE CITY

3002
01:42:11,000 --> 01:42:11,999
OWN THOSE FACILITIES?

3003
01:42:12,000 --> 01:42:12,999
>> Councilmember Campbell:

3004
01:42:13,000 --> 01:42:13,999
YES, THE PARK?

3005
01:42:14,000 --> 01:42:16,999
>> Mayor Salwan:   THE PARK I DO

3006
01:42:17,000 --> 01:42:17,999

SO THE CITY OWNS THOSE

3011
01:42:24,000 --> 01:42:24,999
PROPERTIES.

3012
01:42:25,000 --> 01:42:26,999
SO WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO LOOK AT

3013
01:42:27,000 --> 01:42:29,999

3014
01:42:30,000 --> 01:42:30,999

3025
01:42:44,000 --> 01:42:44,999
SOME OF THE WORK THEY'RE

3026
01:42:45,000 --> 01:42:45,999
REPORTING OUT A YEAR AGO ON

3027
01:42:46,000 --> 01:42:47,999
PROJECTS THAT HAVE BEEN

3028
01:42:48,000 --> 01:42:48,999
COMPLETED BUT THEY ALSO HAVE

3029
01:42:49,000 --> 01:42:50,999

CITY BUILDINGS.

3035
01:43:00,000 --> 01:43:00,999
SO I THINK REALLY HAVING A

THE CITY OWNS HARVEY COMMUNITY

3050
01:43:32,000 --> 01:43:32,999
AND SO WHAT'S THE USE OF IT

3051
01:43:33,000 --> 01:43:33,999
NOW?

3052
01:43:34,000 --> 01:43:36,999

NO, WE HAVE TO GO TO STAFF.

YEAH, I WISH YOU COULD BUT

3056
01:43:44,000 --> 01:43:44,999
THAT'S THE WAY THESE THINGS

3057

THAT QUESTION, I DO WANT TO

01:43:50,000 --> 01:43:51,999
SHARE THAT, OR JUST REITERATE

3062
01:43:52,000 --> 01:43:54,999
THAT THERE IS PROGRAMMING THAT

3063
01:43:55,000 --> 01:43:56,999
OCCURS IN ARDENWOOD CURRENTLY AT

3064
01:43:57,000 --> 01:43:59,999

3065
01:44:00,000 --> 01:44:03,999

WANTED TO INTERJOACT HERE JUST A

3069
01:44:08,000 --> 01:44:08,999
LITTLE BIT.

3070
01:44:09,000 --> 01:44:10,999
WE'RE NOT GOING TO FINALIZE

3071
01:44:11,000 --> 01:44:11,999
EVERYTHING HERE TONIGHT.

3072
01:44:12,000 --> 01:44:13,999
THIS IS JUST DIRECTION.

3073
01:44:14,000 --> 01:44:14,999
WE DON'T HAVE TO GET INTO THE

3074
01:44:15,000 --> 01:44:16,999
WEEDS NOW BUT SINCE THERE ARE

3075
01:44:17,000 --> 01:44:17,999
HIGH LEVEL QUESTIONS WE CAN

3076
01:44:18,000 --> 01:44:19,999
EXPLORE THOSE.

3077
01:44:20,000 --> 01:44:23,999
JUST SO STAFF HAS SOME IDEA WHAT

3078
01:44:24,000 --> 01:44:27,999
WE ARE THINKING.

>> I'M KIM BRANACK.

3082
01:44:34,000 --> 01:44:36,999
CURRENTLY YOUR QUESTION ABOUT

3083
01:44:37,000 --> 01:44:38,999
THE SYLVESTER HARVEY, THERE ARE

3084
01:44:39,000 --> 01:44:40,999
TWO PARTICULAR HOUSES, THEY WERE

3085
01:44:41,000 --> 01:44:41,999
USED AS RESIDENTIAL UNITS FOR A

3086
01:44:42,000 --> 01:44:43,999
VERY LONG TIME.

3087
01:44:44,000 --> 01:44:44,999
WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF

3088
01:44:45,000 --> 01:44:47,999
REVIEWING THOSE SITES AND IF YOU

3089
01:44:48,000 --> 01:44:50,999
HAVE SPECIFIC QUESTIONS MATT

3090
01:44:51,000 --> 01:44:51,999
CANO, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR

3091
01:44:52,000 --> 01:44:52,999
CO-ANSWER THOSE.

3092
01:44:53,000 --> 01:44:54,999
BUT AT THIS TIME THOSE SITES ARE

3093
01:44:55,000 --> 01:44:55,999
NOT IN A CONDITION THAT WE COULD

3094
01:44:56,000 --> 01:44:57,999
OFFER PUBLIC PROGRAMMING THERE.

3095
01:44:58,000 --> 01:45:02,999
THEY BOTH HAVE AN EXPENSIVE

3096
01:45:03,000 --> 01:45:05,999
EXTENSIVE AMOUNT OF WORK THAT

3097
01:45:06,000 --> 01:45:06,999
NEEDS TO GO INTO THEM, ADA

3098
01:45:07,000 --> 01:45:08,999
ACCESSIBLE AS WELL AS DAMAGE

3099
01:45:09,000 --> 01:45:11,999
OVERTIME.

3100
01:45:12,000 --> 01:45:12,999
COULD IT HAPPEN IN THE FUTURE,

3101
01:45:13,000 --> 01:45:14,999
CURRENTLY YES, THERE WOULD BE

3102
01:45:15,000 --> 01:45:15,999
MONEY AND TIME AND A PROJECT

3103
01:45:16,000 --> 01:45:16,999
THAT WOULD HAVE TO BE APPROVED

3104
01:45:17,000 --> 01:45:17,999
FOR THAT.

3105
01:45:18,000 --> 01:45:21,999
AS FAR AS PROGRAMMING THAT GOES

3106
01:45:22,000 --> 01:45:25,999
ON IN NORTH FREMONT AS THE CITY

3107
01:45:26,000 --> 01:45:30,999

IT HAS A PROGRAMMING ROOM,

3111
01:45:40,000 --> 01:45:41,999
SMALL ROOM, WE COULD DOUGH THAT

3112
01:45:42,000 --> 01:45:43,999
IN THE SPRING AND SUMMERTIME TO

3113
01:45:44,000 --> 01:45:44,999
BE OFFERING SOME PROGRAMS OUT

THERE.

3115
01:45:47,000 --> 01:45:48,999
WE ALSO PARTNER WITH FUSD AND

3116
01:45:49,000 --> 01:45:50,999
HAVE RELATIONSHIPS WHERE WE HAVE

ELEMENTARY.

3120
01:45:54,000 --> 01:45:55,999
I WOULD SAY WITH THEM DOING ALL

3121
01:45:56,000 --> 01:45:57,999
OF THEIR PROJECTS THIS LAST YEAR

3122
01:45:58,000 --> 01:45:59,999
WE HAD LIMITED PROGRAM SPACES

3123
01:46:00,000 --> 01:46:01,999
BUT WE HOPE TO MEET WITH THEM

3124
01:46:02,000 --> 01:46:02,999
AGAIN AND BE ABLE TO EXPAND

3125
01:46:03,000 --> 01:46:04,999
THOSE RELATIONSHIPS AS POSSIBLE

3126
01:46:05,000 --> 01:46:05,999
PROGRAMMING SITES.

3127
01:46:06,000 --> 01:46:09,999
>> Mayor Salwan:   I WAS GOING

3128
01:46:10,000 --> 01:46:13,999

HISTORIC FARM AN COYOTE HILLS,

3130
01:46:18,000 --> 01:46:20,999

PARTNER WITH THE PARKS

3132
01:46:22,000 --> 01:46:23,999

SO THERE IS SOME PROGRAMMING

WE KNOW THERE IS SOME PRIORITY

3154
01:47:08,000 --> 01:47:10,999

POTENTIALLY LOOK AT SITES THAT

01:47:23,000 --> 01:47:23,999
HAVE BUILDINGS AVAILABLE AT

3163
01:47:24,000 --> 01:47:25,999
THOSE SITES AS  WELL.

3164
01:47:26,000 --> 01:47:26,999
THIS IS AN EFFORT WE ARE VERY

3165
01:47:27,000 --> 01:47:27,999
WELL AWARE OF AND WORKING

3166
01:47:28,000 --> 01:47:28,999

ROAD MAP IN THE FUTURE PLANS TO

3176
01:47:51,000 --> 01:47:53,999
HAVE A COMMUNITY CENTER TYPE

3177
01:47:54,000 --> 01:47:55,999
FACILITY IN NORTH FREMONT.

COMMUNITY CAPITAL FUND PROGRAM

3181
01:48:04,000 --> 01:48:05,999
THAT'S FOR -- THAT, YOU KNOW,

3182
01:48:06,000 --> 01:48:08,999
KIND OF LONG TERM, I'M NOT

3183
01:48:09,000 --> 01:48:09,999
ASKING FOR A O WE NEED TO HAVE A

3184
01:48:10,000 --> 01:48:12,999
COMMUNITY CENTER IN TWO YEARS,

3185
01:48:13,000 --> 01:48:14,999
FIVE YEARS, OR TEN YEARS,

3186
01:48:15,000 --> 01:48:16,999
BECAUSE IF WE NEVER PLAN FOR IT,

3187
01:48:17,000 --> 01:48:19,999
JUST LAST WEEK WE HAD TO APPROVE

3188
01:48:20,000 --> 01:48:22,999
A $50 MILLION IMPROVEMENT FOR

3189
01:48:23,000 --> 01:48:23,999
EXISTING PARK, RIGHT, IN CENTRAL

3190
01:48:24,000 --> 01:48:24,999
FREMONT.

3191
01:48:25,000 --> 01:48:27,999
BUT, YOU KNOW, WE -- YOU CAN'T,

3192
01:48:28,000 --> 01:48:29,999
YOU KNOW, TELL ME THAT WE CAN'T

3193
01:48:30,000 --> 01:48:30,999
PUT AWAY A MILLION OR TWO

3194
01:48:31,000 --> 01:48:32,999
MILLION A YEAR AND OTHERWISE IN

3195
01:48:33,000 --> 01:48:35,999
30 YEARS WE STILL DON'T HAVE

3196
01:48:36,000 --> 01:48:36,999
ANYTHING RIGHT IN NORTH

3197
01:48:37,000 --> 01:48:37,999
FREMONT.

3198
01:48:38,000 --> 01:48:38,999
I DON'T THINK, YOU KNOW, THERE

3199
01:48:39,000 --> 01:48:40,999
AN EQUITABLE INVESTMENT

3200
01:48:41,000 --> 01:48:41,999
STANDPOINT, THAT'S ASKING TOO

3201
01:48:42,000 --> 01:48:42,999
MUCH.

3202
01:48:43,000 --> 01:48:44,999
BECAUSE IT'S, YOU KNOW, MR.

3203
01:48:45,000 --> 01:48:46,999
MAYOR, I'M SORRY TO DISAGREE

3204
01:48:47,000 --> 01:48:48,999
WITH YOU BUT THIS IS DEFINITELY

3205
01:48:49,000 --> 01:48:50,999


3206
01:48:51,000 --> 01:48:51,999
KIND OF A PROPOSITION.

3207
01:48:52,000 --> 01:48:56,999
BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, 30 YEARS AGO,

3208
01:48:57,000 --> 01:48:57,999
IT WAS ACTUALLY OWN THE AGENDA

3209
01:48:58,000 --> 01:48:59,999
TO MOVE FORWARD A COMMUNITY

3210
01:49:00,000 --> 01:49:03,999
CENTER.

3211
01:49:04,000 --> 01:49:05,999
BUT I THINK THAT, YOU KNOW, WE

3212
01:49:06,000 --> 01:49:06,999
WE -- IT'S NOTE LIKE OH

3213
01:49:07,000 --> 01:49:08,999
DISTRICT 1 DOESN'T HAVE -- I

3214
01:49:09,000 --> 01:49:10,999
WANT TO DO SOMETHING FOR MY

3215
01:49:11,000 --> 01:49:12,999
DISTRICT.

3216
01:49:13,000 --> 01:49:17,999
BUT I ACTUALLY IN MISSION SAN

3217
01:49:18,000 --> 01:49:19,999
JOSE WE HAVE LAKE ELIZABETH

3218
01:49:20,000 --> 01:49:21,999
THAT IS BORDERING, PEOPLE WALK

3219
01:49:22,000 --> 01:49:23,999
FROM MISSION SAN JOSE THEY COME

3220
01:49:24,000 --> 01:49:24,999
TO THE DRONE SHOW, BY WALKING,

3221
01:49:25,000 --> 01:49:25,999
RIGHT?

3222
01:49:26,000 --> 01:49:29,999
SO LIKE WE HAVE A NEW CENTER

3223
01:49:30,000 --> 01:49:30,999
THERE, WE HAVE BOTH SENIOR

3224
01:49:31,000 --> 01:49:33,999
CENTERS IN SOUTH FREMONT.

3225
01:49:34,000 --> 01:49:35,999
AND I THINK, YOU KNOW, YOU CAN

3226
01:49:36,000 --> 01:49:37,999
SAY THAT OKAY, I OF COURSE EACH

3227
01:49:38,000 --> 01:49:38,999
OF US REPRESENT OUR DISTRICT

3228
01:49:39,000 --> 01:49:39,999
AND, YOU KNOW, WE'RE NOT JUST

3229
01:49:40,000 --> 01:49:41,999
REPRESENTING OUR DISTRICT.

3230
01:49:42,000 --> 01:49:44,999
BEE ALSO REPRESENT THE CITY.

3231
01:49:45,000 --> 01:49:46,999
SO IF YOU LOOK AT IT FROM THE

3232
01:49:47,000 --> 01:49:47,999
OTHER POINT OF VIEW, YOU'RE NOT

3233
01:49:48,000 --> 01:49:48,999
JUST REPRESENTING YOUR DISTRICT,

3234
01:49:49,000 --> 01:49:49,999
YOU'RE ALSO REPRESENTING MY

3235
01:49:50,000 --> 01:49:50,999
DISTRICT.

3236
01:49:51,000 --> 01:49:51,999
RIGHT?

3237
01:49:52,000 --> 01:49:55,999
SO, YOU KNOW, IF YOU ARE DENYING

3238
01:49:56,000 --> 01:49:57,999
US, YOU ARE DENYING HAVING --

3239
01:49:58,000 --> 01:49:59,999
GIVING US A COMMUNITY CENTER

3240
01:50:00,000 --> 01:50:02,999
YOU'RE DENYING OTHER MEMBERS OF

3241
01:50:03,000 --> 01:50:04,999
THE CITY AS WELL, RIGHT?

3242
01:50:05,000 --> 01:50:07,999
SO I THINK, YOU KNOW, IT IS NOT

3243
01:50:08,000 --> 01:50:09,999
TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR A STUDY, SO

3244
01:50:10,000 --> 01:50:10,999
WE COULD AT LEAST PUT IT ON THE

3245
01:50:11,000 --> 01:50:11,999
MAP.

3246
01:50:12,000 --> 01:50:13,999
OTHERWISE, YOU KNOW, WE LOOKED

3247
01:50:14,000 --> 01:50:15,999
AT IT 30 YEARS AGO, BUT WE NEVER

3248
01:50:16,000 --> 01:50:17,999
HAVE LIKE A PLAN, WE PUT AWAY A

3249
01:50:18,000 --> 01:50:18,999
LITTLE BIT OF MONEY EACH YEAR.

3250
01:50:19,000 --> 01:50:20,999
BECAUSE BASICALLY IN OUR

3251
01:50:21,000 --> 01:50:21,999
DISTRICT LIKE WE HAVE SIX

3252
01:50:22,000 --> 01:50:24,999
DISTRICTS IN OUR CITY LIKE WE

3253
01:50:25,000 --> 01:50:25,999
ALL HAVE SIMILAR POPULATION IN

3254
01:50:26,000 --> 01:50:26,999
EACH DISTRICT.

3255
01:50:27,000 --> 01:50:30,999
BUT BECAUSE THE OTHER FIVE

3256
01:50:31,000 --> 01:50:32,999
DISTRICTS WERE ALL -- THEY'RE --

3257
01:50:33,000 --> 01:50:33,999
YOU KNOW, FREMONT WAS TOMORROW

3258
01:50:34,000 --> 01:50:36,999
FROM FIVE LITTLE TOWNS.

3259
01:50:37,000 --> 01:50:40,999
WE'RE LOOT THE SIXTH ONE WHICH

3260
01:50:41,000 --> 01:50:41,999
WASN'T A TOWN BEFORE, WAS PART

3261
01:50:42,000 --> 01:50:45,999
OF UNION CITY BEFORE.

3262
01:50:46,000 --> 01:50:46,999
SO WE ARE LIKE AN OVERLOOKED OR

3263
01:50:47,000 --> 01:50:47,999
AFTERTHOUGHT.

3264
01:50:48,000 --> 01:50:48,999
WE HAVE 75 HIGH SCHOOLS IN

3265
01:50:49,000 --> 01:50:49,999
FREMONT.

3266
01:50:50,000 --> 01:50:50,999
WE ARE THE ONLY DISTRICT WITH

3267
01:50:51,000 --> 01:50:51,999
THE SAME POPULATION THAT DOESN'T

3268
01:50:52,000 --> 01:50:52,999
HAVE A HIGH SCHOOL IN OUR

3269
01:50:53,000 --> 01:50:56,999
DISTRICT.

3270
01:50:57,000 --> 01:50:57,999
SO WE HAVE TO TRAVEL REALLY

3271
01:50:58,000 --> 01:50:58,999
FAR.

3272
01:50:59,000 --> 01:51:00,999
EVEN THOUGH WE CAN USE LIKE THE

3273
01:51:01,000 --> 01:51:02,999
SCHOOL SITES IT'S NOT ACCESSIBLE

3274
01:51:03,000 --> 01:51:04,999
TO REGULAR PEOPLE TO OH I WANT

3275
01:51:05,000 --> 01:51:05,999
TO BOOK A BIRTHDAY PARTY AT THE

3276
01:51:06,000 --> 01:51:06,999
SCHOOL.

3277
01:51:07,000 --> 01:51:08,999
IT IS NOT ACCESSIBLE, RIGHT?

3278
01:51:09,000 --> 01:51:10,999
SO, YOU KNOW, I THINK IT IS

3279
01:51:11,000 --> 01:51:13,999
DEFINITELY NOT TOO MUCH TO ASK.

3280
01:51:14,000 --> 01:51:14,999
BECAUSE LIKE EACH OF THESE --

3281
01:51:15,000 --> 01:51:16,999
BASICALLY, YOU KNOW, EACH OF THE

3282
01:51:17,000 --> 01:51:17,999
OTHER FIVE DISTRICTS THEY HAVE A

3283
01:51:18,000 --> 01:51:19,999
COMMUNITY CENTER PRETTY CLOSE TO

3284
01:51:20,000 --> 01:51:21,999
THE HIGH SCHOOL.

3285
01:51:22,000 --> 01:51:23,999
AND THAT'S KIND OF LIKE THE

3286
01:51:24,000 --> 01:51:24,999
CENTER POINT OF THEIR

3287
01:51:25,000 --> 01:51:27,999
COMMUNITY.

3288
01:51:28,000 --> 01:51:29,999
BUT WE DON'T HAVE THAT LUXURY.

3289
01:51:30,000 --> 01:51:33,999
SO I APPRECIATE THAT, YOU KNOW,

3290
01:51:34,000 --> 01:51:36,999
I KNOW THAT

3291
01:51:37,000 --> 01:51:37,999
IN RECENT YEARS WE WERE ABLE TO

3292
01:51:38,000 --> 01:51:39,999
FIND FUNDING TO BUILD A

3293
01:51:40,000 --> 01:51:40,999
BRAND-NEW COMMUNITY CENTER BY

3294
01:51:41,000 --> 01:51:42,999
THE LAKE.

3295
01:51:43,000 --> 01:51:45,999
BUT, YOU KNOW, LIKE JUST LIKE

3296
01:51:46,000 --> 01:51:47,999
THE REGULAR ACTIVITIES THAT LIKE

3297
01:51:48,000 --> 01:51:51,999
COUNCIL IN THE PARK EVERY SUMMER

3298
01:51:52,000 --> 01:51:54,999
OR ALL THESE EVENTS IN --

3299
01:51:55,000 --> 01:51:55,999
BY CENTRAL PARK, IT'S LIKE

3300
01:51:56,000 --> 01:51:58,999
PROBABLY MOST ATTENDED BY PEOPLE

3301
01:51:59,000 --> 01:51:59,999
THAT LIVE IN NORTH -- I MEAN

3302
01:52:00,000 --> 01:52:00,999
LEVEL IN CENTRAL AND SOUTH

3303
01:52:01,000 --> 01:52:02,999
FREMONT.

3304
01:52:03,000 --> 01:52:04,999
BUT FOR US TO TRAVEL, YOU KNOW,

3305
01:52:05,000 --> 01:52:06,999
DOWN ON THE THURSDAY NIGHT TO GO

3306
01:52:07,000 --> 01:52:09,999
TO THE CONCERT, YOU PROBABLY

3307
01:52:10,000 --> 01:52:11,999
FIND THE LEAST OF THE ATTENDEES

3308
01:52:12,000 --> 01:52:14,999
THERE ARE FROM DISTRICT 1.

3309
01:52:15,000 --> 01:52:15,999
SO I JUST WOULD URGE FOR MY

3310
01:52:16,000 --> 01:52:17,999
COLLEAGUES TO CONSIDER THAT.

3311
01:52:18,000 --> 01:52:19,999
AND JUST KIND OF GIVE US A SHOT

3312
01:52:20,000 --> 01:52:21,999
SO WE COULD AT LEAST BE PUT ON

3313
01:52:22,000 --> 01:52:23,999
THE MAP AND LOOK AT -- HAVE AN

3314
01:52:24,000 --> 01:52:24,999
IDEA WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT AND,

3315
01:52:25,000 --> 01:52:25,999
YOU KNOW, WE CAN GET IT AT LEAST

3316
01:52:26,000 --> 01:52:28,999
ON THE MAP.

3317
01:52:29,000 --> 01:52:32,999
AND OTHERWISE IN 20 YEARS WE'RE

3318
01:52:33,000 --> 01:52:34,999
STILL HERE, OH IT'S NOT URGENT,

3319
01:52:35,000 --> 01:52:36,999
YOU KNOW, IT IS NOT URGENT, I'M

3320
01:52:37,000 --> 01:52:40,999
NOT ASKED FOR IT TO BE BUILT

3321
01:52:41,000 --> 01:52:43,999
NEXT YEAR BUT I WAS ASKING FOR A

3322
01:52:44,000 --> 01:52:45,999
COMMUNITY CENTER EIGHT YEARS

3323
01:52:46,000 --> 01:52:46,999
AGO.

3324
01:52:47,000 --> 01:52:48,999
COUNCILMEMBER SHAO SAID, EVERY

3325
01:52:49,000 --> 01:52:49,999
YEAR WE NEVER DO A STUDY.

3326
01:52:50,000 --> 01:52:50,999
SO.

3327
01:52:51,000 --> 01:52:51,999
>> Mayor Salwan:   JUST TO

3328
01:52:52,000 --> 01:52:53,999
CLARIFY, SO WHAT I SAID WAS I

3329
01:52:54,000 --> 01:52:55,999
SUPPORT A COMMUNITY CENTER BUT I

3330
01:52:56,000 --> 01:52:57,999
WANT TO ELEVATE THE DISCUSSION

3331
01:52:58,000 --> 01:52:59,999
TO JUST NOT JUST LOOKING AT ONE

3332
01:53:00,000 --> 01:53:00,999
COMMUNITY CENTER BUT THE ENTIRE

3333
01:53:01,000 --> 01:53:02,999
CITY.

3334
01:53:03,000 --> 01:53:04,999
AND WITH A FACILITIES PLAN.

3335
01:53:05,000 --> 01:53:06,999
AND MY HOPE IS THAT WITH

3336
01:53:07,000 --> 01:53:07,999
SOMETHING LIKE THAT THEN IT

3337
01:53:08,000 --> 01:53:08,999
BECOMES MORE CONCRETE, MORE

3338
01:53:09,000 --> 01:53:10,999
REAL.

3339
01:53:11,000 --> 01:53:12,999
AND THEN NOTE ONLY CAN WE GET A

3340
01:53:13,000 --> 01:53:13,999
COMMUNITY CENTER IN DISTRICT 1

3341
01:53:14,000 --> 01:53:15,999
BUT WE CAN ALSO LOOK AT SOME OF

3342
01:53:16,000 --> 01:53:17,999
THE OTHER ISSUES AS WELL.

3343
01:53:18,000 --> 01:53:18,999
AND BEING MAYOR I REPRESENT ALL

3344
01:53:19,000 --> 01:53:20,999
OF FREMONT.

3345
01:53:21,000 --> 01:53:24,999
IT IS ALWAYS FUNNY WHEN I GO TO

3346
01:53:25,000 --> 01:53:26,999
WARM SPRINGS OR, YOU GUYS ONLY

3347
01:53:27,000 --> 01:53:29,999
CARE ABOUT CENTRAL FREMONT AND

3348
01:53:30,000 --> 01:53:33,999
WHEN YOU GO TO CENTRAL FREMONT

3349
01:53:34,000 --> 01:53:36,999
YOU SAY YOU ONLY CARE ABOUT

3350
01:53:37,000 --> 01:53:38,999
MISSION SAN JOSE.

3351
01:53:39,000 --> 01:53:39,999
I DOUGH WANT TO SUPPORT YOUR

3352
01:53:40,000 --> 01:53:41,999
EFFORTS, BUT ALSO WE HAVE TO

3353
01:53:42,000 --> 01:53:45,999
JUST MAKE SURE THAT WE LOOK AT

3354
01:53:46,000 --> 01:53:46,999
ALL THE NEEDS IN OUR CITY.

3355
01:53:47,000 --> 01:53:47,999
SO WITH THAT I THINK WE HAVE A

3356
01:53:48,000 --> 01:53:49,999
GENERAL DIRECTION.

3357
01:53:50,000 --> 01:53:50,999
IF THERE'S ANY MORE SOMETHING

3358
01:53:51,000 --> 01:53:54,999
FURTHER YOU WOULD LIKE TO STATE

3359
01:53:55,000 --> 01:53:55,999
OR CLARIFY?

3360
01:53:56,000 --> 01:53:56,999
>> Councilmember Keng:   SO IS

3361
01:53:57,000 --> 01:53:59,999
THE SCROANL DIRECTION FOR THE

3362
01:54:00,000 --> 01:54:01,999
STAFF TO LOOK AT THE FUNDING

3363
01:54:02,000 --> 01:54:02,999
OPTIONS OR, YOU KNOW, LOOK AT

3364
01:54:03,000 --> 01:54:03,999
THE PROGRAMS?

3365
01:54:04,000 --> 01:54:07,999
>> Mayor Salwan:   LET ME TURN

3366
01:54:08,000 --> 01:54:08,999
IT OVER TO THE CITY MANAGER.

3367
01:54:09,000 --> 01:54:09,999
>> Karena Shackelford:   YEAH, I

3368
01:54:10,000 --> 01:54:13,999
THINK, YOU KNOW, WHAT I'M

3369
01:54:14,000 --> 01:54:15,999
HERRING IN YOUR DISCOURSE IS

3370
01:54:16,000 --> 01:54:16,999
THAT -- WELL, SORRY.

3371
01:54:17,000 --> 01:54:19,999
IS THAT YOU WANT TO LOOK AT THIS

3372
01:54:20,000 --> 01:54:20,999
ON A LOANING TERM BASIS.

3373
01:54:21,000 --> 01:54:21,999
>> Councilmember Keng:   RIGHT.

3374
01:54:22,000 --> 01:54:22,999
>> Karena Shackelford:   OKAY,

3375
01:54:23,000 --> 01:54:24,999
AND I THINK THAT'S FINE AND I

3376
01:54:25,000 --> 01:54:25,999
THINK WE HAVE THOSE TOOLS

3377
01:54:26,000 --> 01:54:28,999
ALREADY AVAILABLE TO US.

3378
01:54:29,000 --> 01:54:32,999
AND AS I MENTIONED, EARLIER IN

3379
01:54:33,000 --> 01:54:37,999
THIS CONVERSATION, THROUGH OUR

3380
01:54:38,000 --> 01:54:40,999
PARK LAND

3381
01:54:41,000 --> 01:54:42,999
ACQUISITION EFFORTS, OUR REAL

3382
01:54:43,000 --> 01:54:43,999
ESTATE CONSULTANT IS LOOKING FOR

3383
01:54:44,000 --> 01:54:44,999
PROPERTIES OWNERSHIP IN FREMONT

3384
01:54:45,000 --> 01:54:48,999
INCLUDING NORTH FREMONT.

3385
01:54:49,000 --> 01:54:49,999
AND AS KIM MENTIONED EARLIER,

3386
01:54:50,000 --> 01:54:51,999
PARTICULARLY PROPERTIES THAT

3387
01:54:52,000 --> 01:54:53,999
ALREADY HAVE STRUCTURES ON THEM

3388
01:54:54,000 --> 01:54:55,999
THAT COULD BE USED FOR A

3389
01:54:56,000 --> 01:54:58,999
PARTICULAR COMMUNITY CENTER.

3390
01:54:59,000 --> 01:55:00,999
SO WHAT I'M READING IN THE

3391
01:55:01,000 --> 01:55:04,999
REFERRAL IS, YOU KNOW, SIMILAR

3392
01:55:05,000 --> 01:55:06,999
IF NOT EXACTLY WHAT'S ALREADY

3393
01:55:07,000 --> 01:55:07,999
OCCURRING.

3394
01:55:08,000 --> 01:55:09,999
>> Councilmember Keng:   OKAY,

3395
01:55:10,000 --> 01:55:10,999
THANK YOU FOR THAT

3396
01:55:11,000 --> 01:55:11,999
CLARIFICATION.

3397
01:55:12,000 --> 01:55:14,999
BUT TO MY UNDERSTANDING, THE

3398
01:55:15,000 --> 01:55:16,999
LAND -- YOU KNOW, THE

3399
01:55:17,000 --> 01:55:17,999
ACQUISITION FUNDING THE PARK

3400
01:55:18,000 --> 01:55:20,999
DEVELOPMENT, ACTUAL DEVELOPMENT

3401
01:55:21,000 --> 01:55:21,999
OF A PARK IS A DIFFERENT KIND OF

3402
01:55:22,000 --> 01:55:25,999
A POCKETS OF MONEY.

3403
01:55:26,000 --> 01:55:29,999
SO WE CAN'T REALLY

3404
01:55:30,000 --> 01:55:33,999
USE THAT REQUISITION FUNDING TO

3405
01:55:34,000 --> 01:55:34,999
REALLY BUILD A CENTER.

3406
01:55:35,000 --> 01:55:36,999
>> Karena Shackelford:   ONE OF

3407
01:55:37,000 --> 01:55:41,999
THE POINTS I MADE IS MANY OF THE

3408
01:55:42,000 --> 01:55:42,999
PROPERTIES WE LOOK AT,

3409
01:55:43,000 --> 01:55:43,999
ARE PARTICULARLY ATTRACTED TO

3410
01:55:44,000 --> 01:55:44,999
PROCESS THAT HAVE STRUCTURES

3411
01:55:45,000 --> 01:55:47,999
ALREADY ON SITE.

3412
01:55:48,000 --> 01:55:48,999
WE TALKED ABOUT WHAT THE COUNCIL

3413
01:55:49,000 --> 01:55:51,999
OF PARTICULAR PROPERTY WASN'T IN

3414
01:55:52,000 --> 01:55:52,999
NORTH FREMONT BUT JUST TO GIVE

3415
01:55:53,000 --> 01:55:55,999
YOU AS AN EXAMPLE WE WERE

3416
01:55:56,000 --> 01:55:56,999
LOOKING TO PURCHASE A PROPERTY

3417
01:55:57,000 --> 01:55:57,999
THAT HAD SEVERAL STRUCTURES ON

3418
01:55:58,000 --> 01:55:59,999
IT ALREADY.

3419
01:56:00,000 --> 01:56:00,999
AND ONE OF THE STRUCTURES

3420
01:56:01,000 --> 01:56:01,999
ALREADY INCLUDED A BASKETBALL

3421
01:56:02,000 --> 01:56:05,999
COURT.

3422
01:56:06,000 --> 01:56:07,999
SO THAT -- SITES LIKE THAT ARE

3423
01:56:08,000 --> 01:56:08,999
PARTICULARLY ATTRACTIVE TO US

3424
01:56:09,000 --> 01:56:09,999
AND PARK LAND FUNDS WOULD BE

3425
01:56:10,000 --> 01:56:11,999
AVAILABLE FOR THAT.

3426
01:56:12,000 --> 01:56:15,999
NOT TO BUILD A STRUCTURE BUT TO

3427
01:56:16,000 --> 01:56:17,999
PURCHASE A SITE LIKE THAT.

3428
01:56:18,000 --> 01:56:20,999
>> Councilmember Keng:   OKAY,

3429
01:56:21,000 --> 01:56:22,999
THERE ARE DIFFERENT OPTIONS,

3430
01:56:23,000 --> 01:56:27,999
WHATEVER WOULD TAKE IT FASTER TO

3431
01:56:28,000 --> 01:56:28,999
OUR GOAL WOULD BE FEASIBLE

3432
01:56:29,000 --> 01:56:29,999
.

3433
01:56:30,000 --> 01:56:31,999
>> Mayor Salwan:   OKAY, SO WE

3434
01:56:32,000 --> 01:56:34,999
HAVE GOOD UNDERSTANDING AND ALSO

3435
01:56:35,000 --> 01:56:35,999
SO STAFF COULD LOOK AT THE LONG

3436
01:56:36,000 --> 01:56:36,999
TERM PERSPECTIVE.

3437
01:56:37,000 --> 01:56:38,999
>> Councilmember Keng:   DO WE

3438
01:56:39,000 --> 01:56:39,999
NEED TO MAKE A MOTION?

3439
01:56:40,000 --> 01:56:40,999
>> Mayor Salwan:   NO I THINK

3440
01:56:41,000 --> 01:56:41,999
STAFF HAS DIRECTION.

3441
01:56:42,000 --> 01:56:42,999
>> Councilmember Keng:   THANK
