SB 1383 is the most significant waste reduction mandate 150 00:34:27,180 --> 00:34:34,520 to be adopted in California in the last 30 years. SB 1383 requires that the state reduced organic 151 00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:43,380 waste disposal by 75% by 2025. Organic waste includes materials such as food waste, green waste, 152 00:34:43,380 --> 00:34:50,080 and paper products. The law also requires the state to increase edible food recovery by 20% 153 00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:57,120 by 2025. This has significant policy and legal implications for the state and local governments. 154 00:34:57,980 --> 00:35:01,560 Given that it is a statewide target and there are not jurisdiction targets, 155 00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:06,600 the regulation requires a more prescriptive approach. The law requires the 156 00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:11,880 Congress cycle adopt regulations that impose requirements necessary to achieve the statewide targets. 157 00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:23,520 This makes the regulation more similar to other environmental quality regulations where regulated entities, i.e. jurisdictions are required to implement specific actions rather than achieve unique targets. 158 00:35:24,060 --> 00:35:27,880 These regulations will take effect on January 1, 2022. 159 00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:36,320 So during this presentation, I'm going to cover the background in context of S31383, take a big picture look at the laws requirements and objectives. 160 00:35:36,900 --> 00:35:41,520 will go over jurisdiction responsibilities, so what this will require 161 00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:45,100 global governments, some key implementation dates, key jurisdictions, 162 00:35:45,660 --> 00:35:47,640 dates, and color cycle oversight responsibilities. 163 00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:54,040 So when we were talking about organic waste for the purpose of S.P. 164 00:35:54,180 --> 00:35:58,520 1383, we were talking about green waste, wood waste, food waste, but also 165 00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:00,260 fiber such as paper and cardboard. 166 00:36:00,980 --> 00:36:03,960 Organic waste comprises more than one third of our waste stream. 167 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:17,440 Our cycle of latest waste characterization study in 2018 to get closer to look at our food waste stream of the 34% of organic waste is exposed up in California, approximately 15% is food waste. 168 00:36:18,100 --> 00:36:27,270 As I mentioned, SD3 also requires California to recover 20% of currently at a fairly disposed edible food. 169 00:36:27,270 --> 00:36:33,530 The results of the study is helping to determine how much edible food waste is lab-filled on average through the state. 170 00:36:34,030 --> 00:36:34,990 Here's what we do now. 171 00:36:35,430 --> 00:36:37,990 One in five children go hungry every night in California. 172 00:36:38,930 --> 00:36:44,490 Redirecting perfectly edible food that is currently being disposed of to feed those in need can help alleviate this. 173 00:36:45,070 --> 00:36:51,030 Also, for every two and a half tons of food rescued, that's the equivalent of taking one car off the road for a year. 174 00:36:51,590 --> 00:36:55,710 California's disposed of approximately six million tons of food waste every year. 175 00:36:58,170 --> 00:37:02,750 SB 1333 builds upon existing mandatory commercial 176 00:37:02,750 --> 00:37:06,390 organics recycling law known as AB 1826. 177 00:37:07,310 --> 00:37:10,550 AB 1826 requires that local jurisdictions begin implementing 178 00:37:10,550 --> 00:37:13,730 a mandatory commercial organics waste recycling program 179 00:37:13,730 --> 00:37:15,070 starting in 2016. 180 00:37:15,890 --> 00:37:18,910 The program also applies to multi-family residential dwellings 181 00:37:18,910 --> 00:37:22,190 with five or more units, but limited to green waste recycling only 182 00:37:22,190 --> 00:37:23,210 and not food waste. 183 00:37:23,750 --> 00:37:25,310 Shortly after this law was adopted, 184 00:37:25,310 --> 00:37:32,930 Barser began the process of implementation of its program establishing a rate for collection service and conducting outreach to affected enemies. 185 00:37:33,970 --> 00:37:43,350 Barser was awarded a grant to construct in organic processing facility and Victor Bill in response to AB 1826 facility and infrastructure needs. 186 00:37:43,350 --> 00:37:47,770 In July 2020, BERTEC opened their composting facility, which was a huge milestone, 187 00:37:48,370 --> 00:37:53,230 though it allowed us to more easily achieve our compliance goals by creating a processing facility 188 00:37:53,230 --> 00:37:58,350 close to BERTEC, reducing transportation costs ultimately saving the right pair of money. 189 00:37:59,130 --> 00:38:03,990 In September 2020, Calversycle conducted a progress assessment and determined that the statewide 190 00:38:03,990 --> 00:38:08,750 reduction targets were not being met. As a result, the organic, recycling, requirement 191 00:38:08,750 --> 00:38:14,490 expanded to commercial entities that generate two cubic yards or more of commercial solid waste for 192 00:38:14,490 --> 00:38:22,410 week. In November 2020, the city council adopted ordinance 968 providing an enforcement mechanism 193 00:38:22,410 --> 00:38:28,090 for entities subject to 1826. Currently, the solid waste department is working with vertex to make 194 00:38:28,090 --> 00:38:34,830 the organic collection service available to all convert entities in May of 2021. This full implementation 195 00:38:34,830 --> 00:38:41,750 in a baby 1826 will be a hugely towards achieving the target set forth by a baby 1383. 196 00:38:43,370 --> 00:38:45,310 S.B. 1383. 197 00:38:47,850 --> 00:38:53,830 Okay, so just briefly, the requirements, again, they take effect on January 1, 198 00:38:54,890 --> 00:38:59,510 2022. As I mentioned, the aggressive organic waste reduction targets require California's 199 00:38:59,510 --> 00:39:04,050 due to organic waste disposal by 75% by 2025. 200 00:39:05,770 --> 00:39:08,030 These targets use the 2014 waste characterization 201 00:39:08,030 --> 00:39:11,630 study measurements when 23 million tons of organic waste 202 00:39:11,630 --> 00:39:12,290 was supposed. 203 00:39:13,050 --> 00:39:15,630 These disposal reductions will reduce at least 4 million 204 00:39:15,630 --> 00:39:18,830 metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions annually by 2030. 205 00:39:19,570 --> 00:39:22,010 Additionally, as part of the disposal reduction targets, 206 00:39:22,530 --> 00:39:24,350 the legislature directed tower cycle 207 00:39:24,350 --> 00:39:27,950 to increase edible food recovery by 20% by 2025, 208 00:39:27,950 --> 00:39:30,050 which is a major component of this law. 209 00:39:33,210 --> 00:39:38,350 Highlighted on this slide are the key dates for SB 1383 implementation and milestones going back to when it was adopted. 210 00:39:39,390 --> 00:39:44,910 The law, the targets, and the requirements for our cycle to adopt regulations were adopted in September of 2016. 211 00:39:46,330 --> 00:39:52,350 Towers cycle conducted two years of informal hearings with local governments and stakeholders to develop regulatory concepts. 212 00:39:52,350 --> 00:40:06,650 How are cycles started the formal regulation rule making in January of 2019, the regulations were adopted in fall 2020, and stipulate that jurisdictions must have their programs in place on January 1, 2022. 213 00:40:07,970 --> 00:40:20,190 In 2024 jurisdictions will be required to take enforcement action against non-compliant entities, and in 2025 the state must achieve those 75% reduction in 20% food recovery targets. 214 00:40:20,190 --> 00:40:24,550 We need to plan and secure access for recycling and edible food recovery capacity. 215 00:40:25,130 --> 00:40:29,710 In addition to recovering 20% of edible food for human consumption, we must identify 216 00:40:29,710 --> 00:40:35,070 tier 1 and tier 2 commercial edible food generators and funding for edible food recovery 217 00:40:35,070 --> 00:40:35,850 infrastructure. 218 00:40:37,210 --> 00:40:41,910 To meet the deadline of January 1st, 2022, powder cycle expects that jurisdictions will 219 00:40:41,910 --> 00:40:45,990 be planning and making programmatic and budgetary decisions regarding the requirements 220 00:40:45,990 --> 00:40:47,510 in advance of this deadline. 221 00:40:47,510 --> 00:40:54,330 Health or cycle can begin enforcement action on jurisdictions and other entities starting on January 1, 2022. 222 00:40:55,090 --> 00:41:04,170 The enforcement process on jurisdictions stipulate that a city can be issued a violation and be subject to enforcement for failure to comply with any aspect of this regulation. 223 00:41:05,150 --> 00:41:06,990 Like most regulatory enforcement programs, 224 00:41:06,990 --> 00:41:10,970 This tower cycle will have discretion to determine the level of penalty necessary to remedy 225 00:41:10,970 --> 00:41:12,010 any given violation. 226 00:41:12,670 --> 00:41:15,450 These timelines mean we need to be planning now. 227 00:41:17,890 --> 00:41:22,450 This slide outlines the major programmatic activities for jurisdictions and the following slides 228 00:41:22,450 --> 00:41:23,670 will cover more detail. 229 00:41:24,590 --> 00:41:31,610 Starting January 1, 2022, we must first provide organic collection service to all residents and 230 00:41:31,610 --> 00:41:32,250 businesses. 231 00:41:32,910 --> 00:41:35,810 We must establish an edible food recovery program. 232 00:41:35,810 --> 00:41:42,650 We'll need to conduct education and outreach meet procurement targets and plan for capacity. 233 00:41:43,510 --> 00:41:49,850 Starting January 1st, 2024 jurisdictions will be required to take enforcement action against non-compliant entities. 234 00:41:50,910 --> 00:41:59,770 Congress cycle has some funding through competitive grant programs, as well as a loan program for establishing the infrastructure for recycling organic waste and recovering edible food. 235 00:41:59,770 --> 00:42:04,530 However, for programmatic activities such as enforcement, instruction, education, collection, 236 00:42:05,190 --> 00:42:10,910 we need to plan for budgetary changes to address that, please. In late 2020, 237 00:42:11,190 --> 00:42:15,550 color cycle issued a number of tools that we can begin utilizing, such as a model 238 00:42:15,550 --> 00:42:20,210 enforcement ordinance, franchise agreement model, and educational materials. 239 00:42:21,690 --> 00:42:26,010 Using the latest statewide waste characterization studies, jurisdictions will have data needed 240 00:42:26,010 --> 00:42:28,430 to conduct some of the capacity planning requirements. 241 00:42:29,330 --> 00:42:31,730 We need to be planning now to have the programmatic 242 00:42:31,730 --> 00:42:34,910 and budgetary changes in place by January 1, 2022. 243 00:42:38,730 --> 00:42:40,190 So jurisdictions will be responsible 244 00:42:40,710 --> 00:42:44,730 to adequately resource all of these programs shown here. 245 00:42:45,170 --> 00:42:48,750 The first is ProviderGanniquest Collection Services 246 00:42:48,750 --> 00:42:50,050 to all residents and businesses. 247 00:42:50,550 --> 00:42:52,930 This means for all organic waste, including green waste, 248 00:42:53,070 --> 00:42:55,570 wood waste, food waste, fibers, et cetera. 249 00:42:56,370 --> 00:43:04,710 Containers have prescribed colors, any shade of gray or black for trash, green for organic waste and blue containers for traditional recyclables. 250 00:43:05,590 --> 00:43:08,830 There are container labeling and contamination monitoring requirements. 251 00:43:09,450 --> 00:43:15,650 The color cycle has indicated that the average cost increase to households is estimated at three to five dollars per month, 252 00:43:15,990 --> 00:43:20,870 while the average increase to businesses is estimated at $70 to $90 per month. 253 00:43:20,870 --> 00:43:27,790 We're currently assessing our existing collection programs to determine what may need to be expanded or changed. 254 00:43:29,270 --> 00:43:36,050 Item 2 is establish an edible food recovery program for all tier 1 and tier 2 commercial edible food generators. 255 00:43:36,870 --> 00:43:43,930 Tier 1 food generators are supermarkets and large grocery stores, food service providers, food distributors, and wholesale food vendors. 256 00:43:43,930 --> 00:43:50,550 to your two generators are large restaurants, hotels with on-site food facilities and 200 or more rooms, 257 00:43:50,910 --> 00:43:57,090 health facilities with an on-site food facility and 100 or more beds, large venues, and large events, 258 00:43:57,710 --> 00:44:02,410 state agencies with large cafeterias and local education agencies with on-site food facilities. 259 00:44:03,530 --> 00:44:09,210 This means we must strengthen our existing infrastructure for edible food recovery and food distribution. 260 00:44:09,870 --> 00:44:16,570 Even where existing infrastructure already exists, there are new recordkeeping and inspection tasks that we'll need to be implemented. 261 00:44:17,430 --> 00:44:23,970 We're going to need to assess things like how many commercial generators do we have in bar still, how much edible food could they donate? 262 00:44:25,030 --> 00:44:31,530 How many food recovery organizations exist and what is their capacity to receive this edible food? 263 00:44:32,110 --> 00:44:36,450 What gaps do we have in our current infrastructure and what do we need to do to close them? 264 00:44:36,450 --> 00:44:41,370 How can we fund the expansions of edible food recovery organizations through grants, partnerships, 265 00:44:41,570 --> 00:44:42,930 partnerships, et cetera? 266 00:44:43,390 --> 00:44:48,150 What partnerships currently exist already and what new partnerships we need to be established? 267 00:44:50,130 --> 00:44:51,190 Next is item 3. 268 00:44:51,330 --> 00:44:55,530 We have to conduct education and outreach to all businesses and residents regarding collections 269 00:44:55,530 --> 00:44:59,970 service requirements, contamination standards, self-haul requirements. 270 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:08,120 Governments and overall compliance with 1383, including edible food donation requirements and available edible food organizations, recovery organizations. 271 00:45:09,580 --> 00:45:22,220 Educational material must be linguistically available and accessible to our non-English speaking residents, so we'll provide printed materials, online resources as well as additional media and social media platforms to reach all generators. 272 00:45:23,580 --> 00:45:34,800 I don't for is we will be required to procure certain levels of compost, mulch, renewable gas or electricity from biomass conversion produced from organic waste. 273 00:45:35,720 --> 00:45:40,000 Each jurisdiction will have a minimum procurement target that is linked to its population. 274 00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:44,960 Power cycle will notify jurisdictions of their target prior to January 1, 2022. 275 00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:52,760 We'll be able to decide what makes the compost, mulch, biomass arrival, electricity, or renewable gas we want to use to meet our target. 276 00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:59,500 Power cycle will provide a calculator with the conversion factors for us to use to calculate progress towards meeting our target. 277 00:46:00,440 --> 00:46:07,000 It's important to note that procurement doesn't necessarily mean purchase, but jurisdiction that produces its own compost, 278 00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:12,640 multiple gas or electricity from biomass conversion can use that towards the procurement target. 279 00:46:13,020 --> 00:46:17,240 Same goes for jurisdictions direct service providers for example, it's haulers. 280 00:46:17,620 --> 00:46:21,900 We can use compost or mulch for erosion control, soil amendments, soil cover, parks, and 281 00:46:21,900 --> 00:46:24,200 open spaces, as well as giveaways. 282 00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:29,640 We could potentially use renewable gas to fuel fleets, or our waste haulers to use renewable 283 00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:30,960 gas to fuel their trucks. 284 00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:37,320 Renewable gas can be used for transportation fuels, electricity, or heating appliances, applications. 285 00:46:39,180 --> 00:46:43,100 SB's are to need to be also requires that jurisdictions procure a recycled content paper 286 00:46:43,100 --> 00:46:46,160 when it's available at the same price or less than virgin material. 287 00:46:47,080 --> 00:46:51,100 Procured paper products must meet the federal trade commissions, recyclability guidelines, 288 00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:53,940 essentially products we purchase must be recycled. 289 00:46:55,300 --> 00:46:55,880 recyclable. 290 00:46:57,180 --> 00:47:03,860 Item 5, we need to plan and secure access for recycling and edible food recovery capacity. 291 00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:08,280 Again, we must plan to recover 20% of the edible food for human consumption. 292 00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:14,740 Identify tier 1, and tier 2 commercial edible food generators, and funding for our edible food recovery infrastructure. 293 00:47:15,720 --> 00:47:22,100 Each county will lead this effort by coordinating with the cities in the county to estimate existing new and organic capacity. 294 00:47:22,100 --> 00:47:30,580 Counties and cities must demonstrate that they have access to recycling capacity through existing contracts, franchise agreements or other documented arrangements. 295 00:47:31,340 --> 00:47:39,100 For edible food recovery, the county and city must contact edible food recovery organizations that serve the jurisdiction to determine. 296 00:47:39,100 --> 00:47:46,560 excuse me, how much, how much existing new and or plan capacity is available? If capacity cannot 297 00:47:46,560 --> 00:47:51,680 be guaranteed, then each jurisdiction within the county that lacks capacity must submit an 298 00:47:51,680 --> 00:47:56,920 implementation schedule to cover cycle that includes specific specified timelines and milestones, 299 00:47:57,420 --> 00:48:03,140 including funding for necessary recycling or edible food recovery facilities. The county must collect 300 00:48:03,140 --> 00:48:08,340 data from the cities on a specified schedule and report to cover cycle. Cities are required to 301 00:48:08,340 --> 00:48:11,080 provide the data to the county within 120 days. 302 00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:14,380 The start year for planning and reporting is 2022, 303 00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:17,680 and the report must cover 2022 through 2025. 304 00:48:18,460 --> 00:48:21,000 So subsequent reports will be due every five years, 305 00:48:21,420 --> 00:48:22,960 and will plan for a 10 year horizon. 306 00:48:24,380 --> 00:48:26,720 Finally, item six is we will be required 307 00:48:26,720 --> 00:48:28,920 to monitor compliance and conduct enforcement. 308 00:48:29,500 --> 00:48:32,340 By January 1st, 2022 jurisdictions are required 309 00:48:32,340 --> 00:48:34,940 to have an enforcement mechanism or ordinance in place, 310 00:48:35,300 --> 00:48:37,740 yet we are not required to enforce until 2024. 311 00:48:38,340 --> 00:48:41,500 The focus during the first two years is on educating generators. 312 00:48:42,160 --> 00:48:45,560 The goal is to make sure every generator has an opportunity to comply the 313 00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:47,720 for mandatory enforcement comes into effect. 314 00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:53,840 After January 2024, jurisdictions must take progressive enforcement action against 315 00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:56,700 organic waste generators that are not in compliance. 316 00:48:57,280 --> 00:49:00,640 The progressive approach allows for notification to the generator and provides 317 00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:04,260 ample time for the generator to comply before penalties must be issued. 318 00:49:04,260 --> 00:49:12,360 Our cycle sets the maximum time frame that a jurisdiction has to issue a notice of violation and issue penalties to the generator. 319 00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:17,600 We will have the flexibility to develop our own enforcement process within these specific parameters. 320 00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:24,520 The regulations give more detail on what a jurisdiction is required to do if they determine a violation occurred. 321 00:49:27,620 --> 00:49:30,460 So talk about the local government roles and responsibilities. 322 00:49:30,460 --> 00:49:36,200 This law extends beyond directing waste management and recycling operations and staff. 323 00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:40,420 Each department will need to understand how SB 1383 impacts their work. 324 00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:44,020 Record keeping and reporting requirements extends to all of these departments. 325 00:49:44,580 --> 00:49:48,260 And jurisdiction leaders like a self-clea vital role in ensuring compliance. 326 00:49:48,820 --> 00:49:52,600 City Councils and Board of Supervisors will need to pass local enforcement ordinances 327 00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:56,640 to require all residents and businesses to subscribe to these services. 328 00:49:56,640 --> 00:50:01,940 City managers and Chief Administrative Officers will be involved in capacity planning, directing, 329 00:50:02,140 --> 00:50:07,160 procurement of recycled organic products like compost and renewable natural gas, and establishing 330 00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:08,920 at a both food recovery programs. 331 00:50:09,840 --> 00:50:13,460 Finance and legal staff should be involved in local and forced ordinances, new collection 332 00:50:13,460 --> 00:50:18,960 fees, and ensuring programs are adequately resourced, purchasing staff will be central to 333 00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:21,660 procuring recycled organic products including paper. 334 00:50:22,140 --> 00:50:26,620 Public work staff may be involved in civil engineering activities where compost may be 335 00:50:26,620 --> 00:50:33,380 used as an erosion control along city streets and embankments public park staff may be involved 336 00:50:33,380 --> 00:50:38,960 with assessing the need for local compost application to park city landscape areas and 337 00:50:38,960 --> 00:50:43,420 environmental staff will be tasked with enforcement duties including inspection inspections 338 00:50:43,420 --> 00:50:49,100 of at commercial food generators for compliance with edible food recovery requirements. 339 00:50:50,340 --> 00:50:54,000 Public transportation and fleet departments could also be involved in preparing renewable 340 00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:56,820 natural gas for city and county on vehicles. 341 00:51:00,300 --> 00:51:02,500 And it is shins, jurisdictions will have to adopt 342 00:51:02,500 --> 00:51:07,240 an ordinance or enforceable mechanism that requires compliance with Cal Green and water-efficient 343 00:51:07,240 --> 00:51:12,900 landscape ordinance requirements, which will involve the participation of building and planning 344 00:51:12,900 --> 00:51:18,000 staff. The requirements include providing readily accessible areas for recycling containers and 345 00:51:18,000 --> 00:51:22,590 commercial and multi-family units, recycling organic waste co-mingled with construction and 346 00:51:22,590 --> 00:51:30,110 to need Calgary and 65% requirement for C&D recycling and both residential and non-residential projects 347 00:51:30,110 --> 00:51:37,910 and requiring new construction and landscaping projects to meet water-efficient landscape requirements for compost and mulch applications. 348 00:51:40,530 --> 00:51:44,450 jurisdictions will also have to maintain all information and implementation record. 349 00:51:45,010 --> 00:51:48,690 This graphic is a snapshot of items to be kept in the implementation record. 350 00:51:48,690 --> 00:51:54,090 Calercycle staff may review the record as part of an audit of our program and the implementation 351 00:51:54,090 --> 00:51:56,330 record needs to be stored in a central location. 352 00:51:56,510 --> 00:52:02,070 It can be kept in a physical or electronic record, but must be accessible to Calercycle staff 353 00:52:02,070 --> 00:52:05,810 within 10 business days and must be retained for five years. 354 00:52:08,210 --> 00:52:13,930 Finally to discuss Calercycle over site, beginning 2022, Calercycle will authorize low population 355 00:52:13,930 --> 00:52:20,830 in rural area waivers in the case of entities such as location, local education agencies, 356 00:52:21,410 --> 00:52:23,410 which may be exempt from local solid waste oversight. 357 00:52:23,470 --> 00:52:27,010 Calvers cycle will be directly responsible for ensuring compliance. 358 00:52:27,290 --> 00:52:31,710 This will be monitored through Calvers cycle's existing state agency monitoring process. 359 00:52:32,390 --> 00:52:35,290 Calvers cycle will be actively evaluating our compliance, for example, 360 00:52:35,510 --> 00:52:38,490 verifying that all organic waste generators have service, 361 00:52:38,650 --> 00:52:43,770 that we're providing proper education and issuing notices of violation within the correct time 362 00:52:44,850 --> 00:52:59,730 Again, SB 1383 is a statewide target and not an individual jurisdiction, diversion targets, so unlike AB 939, where there was a specific target for each jurisdiction, SB 1383 prohibits a jurisdiction target. 363 00:53:00,130 --> 00:53:10,250 Due to this structure, the regulations require a more prescriptive approach and establish statement of standards. We must be able to demonstrate compliance with each of the prescriptive standards. 364 00:53:11,250 --> 00:53:20,890 Under SB 1383 regulations, if color cycle determines if jurisdiction is violating, one or more of the requirements, a jurisdiction will be noticed and will have 90 days to correct. 365 00:53:21,170 --> 00:53:31,070 Most violations should be able to be correct within that timeframe, but for cases where jurisdictions may need a little additional time, the time frame can be expanded to 180 days. 366 00:53:31,070 --> 00:53:35,770 for violations that are due to barriers outside the jurisdiction's control and which may take 367 00:53:35,770 --> 00:53:41,130 more time to correct the regulations allow for a jurisdiction to be placed on a corrective 368 00:53:41,130 --> 00:53:46,490 action plan, allowing up to 24 months to comply. In these cases, it must be inherent that the 369 00:53:46,490 --> 00:53:51,790 jurisdiction has taken substantial effort to comply but cannot do to accentuating circumstances, 370 00:53:52,350 --> 00:53:54,710 such as the lack of capacity or natural disaster. 371 00:53:58,140 --> 00:53:59,780 So, in closing, I would like to encourage 372 00:53:59,780 --> 00:54:02,720 the council, the community, to stay engaged in this process. 373 00:54:03,060 --> 00:54:05,660 You can do so by subscribing to Calaricycle's listserv 374 00:54:05,660 --> 00:54:07,580 to receive emails with the latest updates. 375 00:54:08,040 --> 00:54:11,880 You can also visit Calaricycle's SLCP web page for information 376 00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:15,480 or you can contact me directly for updates specific to barso. 377 00:54:16,080 --> 00:54:19,080 Since coming on board to Solid Waste in July 2020, 378 00:54:19,380 --> 00:54:24,040 I've been participating in various Calaricycle public webcasts, 379 00:54:24,460 --> 00:54:29,260 training, workshop sessions, as well as meetings with BERTTEC and our JPA 380 00:54:29,260 --> 00:54:33,180 to learn more about this and discuss the regulatory process. 381 00:54:33,580 --> 00:54:38,020 It's certainly a lot to digest, but our staff and partners are definitely 382 00:54:38,020 --> 00:54:41,440 strategizing on the best approach for successful implementation. 383 00:54:42,580 --> 00:54:46,800 I want to thank you all for listening through this very high-level view of SB 133. 384 00:54:47,020 --> 00:54:49,960 Your support with this is very crucial to its success. 385 00:54:50,840 --> 00:54:55,000 And then also wanted to introduce some folks joining us tonight for 386 00:54:55,000 --> 00:55:00,380 representative from Cali Cycle, we have the local assistance in marketing development branch chief, 387 00:55:00,700 --> 00:55:06,500 Karen Morgan, senior environmental scientists, supervisor Kathy McDonald's and environmental 388 00:55:06,500 --> 00:55:11,920 scientists during the specter. In addition, we have Vice President Bertekwis, Mike Erigan, 389 00:55:12,520 --> 00:55:14,300 and we welcome many questions you have. 390 00:55:25,480 --> 00:55:30,400 I guess I have a question. So this is a huge task and 391 00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:32,480 I know that we're up to it with our partners. 392 00:55:33,120 --> 00:55:39,880 But I do want to ask, are we already starting with the plan? 393 00:55:40,180 --> 00:55:41,540 I believe we're probably there. 394 00:55:41,540 --> 00:55:44,120 When is the actual deadline that we have to submit? 395 00:55:47,260 --> 00:55:51,400 January 1st of 2022, we need to have an ordinance in place. 396 00:55:51,820 --> 00:55:55,040 So an enforceable mechanism that lays out basically 397 00:55:55,040 --> 00:55:56,920 the ground work of the program. 398 00:55:56,920 --> 00:56:01,760 But this is, again, building upon the existing organic waste law. 399 00:56:03,200 --> 00:56:10,320 So currently, there is a law for commercial organic waste recycling. 400 00:56:10,740 --> 00:56:17,200 But it only affects commercial entities who are generating at least two cubic yards of solid waste per week. 401 00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:26,400 So we are in the process of rolling that program out and, you know, it's going to help us towards the 402 00:56:26,400 --> 00:56:33,720 ultimate targets that SB 1383 has, so yeah we are we are definitely on track to 403 00:56:34,420 --> 00:56:40,440 getting the word out there of the importance of the organic waste recycling and educating folks 404 00:56:40,440 --> 00:56:46,520 which I think is going to be the most important thing on the forefront in making sure that everyone 405 00:56:46,520 --> 00:56:54,140 is aware of this is coming and and how it will affect everyone in the community, city staff, etc. 406 00:56:55,100 --> 00:57:05,780 And the wind is, is the ordinance already being looked at to, to revise the language, and when is it, when are you planning to bring it to city council? 407 00:57:06,480 --> 00:57:20,760 Yes, ma'am. So back in fall of last year, we amended our, our BMCA brought forward an ordinance to include the requirement to separate the organic waste material. 408 00:57:20,760 --> 00:57:37,540 But we are now, well, I'm comparing with the model ordinances, that color cycle put out as a tool to ensure that if there are additional updates that are needed to the code, that they are consistent with what's required under the law. 409 00:57:37,540 --> 00:57:46,880 So that tool is going to be really vital in developing that. I hope to bring that to you all. As soon as possible, I'm going to I'm starting to work on it now. 410 00:57:47,600 --> 00:57:51,720 My main goal was to get this presentation out as kind of an introductory. 411 00:57:53,320 --> 00:57:59,100 And yeah, we welcome any feedback questions concerns as we do start the development of that ordinance. 412 00:58:00,180 --> 00:58:04,700 I just want to finish off by just saying thank you so much Jessica. 413 00:58:04,700 --> 00:58:17,320 this is a lot to absorb, but behind the scenes staff at City Hall is continuously working very hard and this is not the only thing you're working on. 414 00:58:17,340 --> 00:58:22,800 So I just want to say thank you to you and all the other staff and the partners that are working on this. 415 00:58:22,820 --> 00:58:24,060 I really appreciate it. 416 00:58:24,420 --> 00:58:25,840 Well, thank you very much. 417 00:58:26,120 --> 00:58:33,940 Thank you. Thank you. 418 00:58:33,940 --> 00:58:40,060 And definitely have a great leader by the Buzzy to motivate and inspire Cody. 419 00:58:40,300 --> 00:58:43,680 Thank you for making this a reality. 420 00:58:44,320 --> 00:58:47,760 The education is definitely going to be the key to educate our community. 421 00:58:48,300 --> 00:58:55,740 Because this is a major undertaking for our community, which is going to make it even bigger. 422 00:58:55,820 --> 00:59:01,990 I'm making for the rest is our community, and to have our partners and our primary partners on this. 423 00:59:03,090 --> 00:59:12,130 Mr. Mike Erigander, I see Mike up there, in Vertag and in their partners to bring this 424 00:59:12,130 --> 00:59:17,110 reality to our community because it's definitely something that's necessary, that educating 425 00:59:17,110 --> 00:59:22,970 gradually implemented. Just a little note, Mike, on the last time that we checked at it, 426 00:59:23,110 --> 00:59:30,070 it was a very, very productive conversation. I want to thank you, Mike, because, wow, 427 00:59:30,070 --> 00:59:37,870 It was good. It was a good talk. And the deliverables are a wonderful. So I just want to personally thank you. 428 00:59:37,910 --> 00:59:40,430 Thank you for doing what you had to do. 429 00:59:40,690 --> 00:59:41,810 That's it. It's definitely working. 430 00:59:42,750 --> 00:59:45,590 Very good. Thank you, Mayor, and it is continued. 431 00:59:46,130 --> 00:59:48,170 I continued work in progress. 432 00:59:49,270 --> 00:59:50,310 But we're a team. 433 00:59:50,770 --> 00:59:57,970 Berthek and the city of Barstone. I can't thank you enough for the staff that we're able to work with. 434 00:59:57,970 --> 00:59:59,810 a level of understanding. 435 01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:15,480 Again, with the city manager that he and I go way back and knows what we're capable of doing. And I do appreciate you bringing certain issues to our attention, but we will continue to work forward. Thank you. 436 01:00:15,800 --> 01:00:26,440 Well, thank you. Thank you very much. Great presentation, Jessica. Great presentation also to your supervisor, Cody. 437 01:00:27,900 --> 01:00:36,000 Yeah, just because we've been doing a phenomenal job and as soon as we had that ordinance, we'll get it to rule the policies for review and get it back to council as soon as possible. 438 01:00:36,040 --> 01:00:37,420 Okay, thank you. 439 01:00:38,060 --> 01:00:39,180 Appreciate it. 440 01:00:39,420 --> 01:00:40,660 Mayor, if I may. 441 01:00:42,060 --> 01:00:44,140 Councilman, Maryland, dire crews. 442 01:00:45,540 --> 01:00:55,680 With being on the solid waste and the wastewater committees also had my first meeting with the JPA and. 443 01:00:55,680 --> 01:01:20,660 It was very enlightening that meeting, seeing what's ahead of us, and after that two hour meeting, I did speak with Cody Tomkins and with Jessica, and it just trying to get a grip on exactly what's going to be required of the city and its residents. 444 01:01:21,800 --> 01:01:38,160 And it is a huge undertaking that I hope the community understands just how serious this is and how there is no choice in complying and making this work for this community. 445 01:01:39,080 --> 01:01:49,300 I'm hoping that they get involved in it just as strongly as they did on our recycled program, which was which was a huge success compared to the other cities in the high desert. 446 01:01:49,300 --> 01:01:57,360 So I know this is going to be a large undertaking for us, and it is going to be a financial 447 01:01:58,200 --> 01:02:03,360 responsibility for every residents that live here and use the facility. 448 01:02:04,040 --> 01:02:11,300 I have to say, though, Jessica and Cody made arrangements for us to go see the composting 449 01:02:12,680 --> 01:02:20,880 department that's over in Victor Bell and it's a good thing they started during the pandemic 450 01:02:20,880 --> 01:02:28,260 because I think once all the restaurants really come on to on board of the organic waste will be 451 01:02:28,260 --> 01:02:34,280 a much larger production that they have there but they really have they really have 452 01:02:35,460 --> 01:02:40,660 organized it well.

What it looks like within the city and what it 485 01:04:30,860 --> 01:04:31,220 includes. 486 01:04:33,580 --> 01:04:39,040 So this is a screen grab of the latest budget. You can see the link down there at 487 01:04:39,040 --> 01:04:43,680 the bottom. You can see where the economic development department fits with in the city. So it's 488 01:04:44,400 --> 01:04:50,320 under the city manager and then it is, it works hand in hand with honestly all of these different 489 01:04:50,320 --> 01:04:54,640 apartments here. So we do have an economic development 490 01:04:54,640 --> 01:04:58,880 webpage. You can visit at the city of Barsto. And if you do 491 01:04:58,880 --> 01:05:01,860 visit that webpage, you are able to locate a potential 492 01:05:01,860 --> 01:05:05,120 development brochure. I'm so I'm going to go ahead and open 493 01:05:05,120 --> 01:05:09,400 the webpage here and you can see the link right here. And if you 494 01:05:09,400 --> 01:05:12,760 open that, then you'll go ahead and find some of the overview of the 495 01:05:12,760 --> 01:05:16,660 city of Barsto. You can see a message from our mayor. You can 496 01:05:16,660 --> 01:05:19,240 see just some of the different demographics, some of the 497 01:05:19,240 --> 01:05:24,100 for an opportunity that are available within the city and soon we will be adding a 498 01:05:24,100 --> 01:05:26,960 Parks and Rec update as they're in there as well. 499 01:05:27,780 --> 01:05:31,440 And then you can also see some information about opportunity zones in the city. 500 01:05:32,200 --> 01:05:38,560 So Barso is very special in that we have a majority of our downtown area located within an 501 01:05:38,560 --> 01:05:39,480 opportunity zone. 502 01:05:40,140 --> 01:05:44,660 As some of you might notice, some of that has located on the railway and if you can 503 01:05:44,660 --> 01:05:50,560 big to different whether or not that's actually usable space, but nonetheless it is still within an 504 01:05:50,560 --> 01:05:58,600 opportunity zone which is a federally designated zone that intends to benefit economically 505 01:05:58,600 --> 01:06:04,000 distressed communities where new investments under certain conditions may be eligible for 506 01:06:04,000 --> 01:06:08,900 preferential tax treatments. And there are three different opportunities under the opportunity 507 01:06:08,900 --> 01:06:15,120 these zones. And one is a capital gains tax deferral. One is a capital gains tax reduction. And 508 01:06:15,120 --> 01:06:21,760 one is a elimination of taxes on future gains altogether. And because we have the beauty of being 509 01:06:21,760 --> 01:06:26,140 on a virtual format where I can share my entire screen with you, I'm going to show you the opportunity 510 01:06:26,140 --> 01:06:32,060 zones website and show you how easy it is to navigate. So if you just go to opzones.ca.gov, 511 01:06:32,620 --> 01:06:37,840 you can open up this map here and you can see all the areas in California that you can find 512 01:06:37,840 --> 01:06:41,400 opportunities zones and then just learn a little bit more about it as well. 513 01:06:41,840 --> 01:06:46,980 And we have fantastic partners that help us learn a little bit more about these areas and 514 01:06:46,980 --> 01:06:53,400 and connect our businesses with people who are experts in this area at both the California 515 01:06:54,780 --> 01:07:00,360 governors, business office, it's called GoBiz and then both at the economic development department 516 01:07:00,360 --> 01:07:06,680 at San Bernardino County. So I'm going to go ahead and talk about some of the projects in forest 517 01:07:06,680 --> 01:07:11,360 show and one of the exciting ones while they're all exciting. But one of the exciting housing 518 01:07:11,360 --> 01:07:16,980 products that we're able to talk about is the Lennwood Estates and this is a series of what 519 01:07:16,980 --> 01:07:23,640 used to be eight homes but is now seven. On Lennwood Road it is not where the outlets are so 520 01:07:23,640 --> 01:07:31,000 on the other side of Lennwood. Those were city owned property as of last year. I forget the 521 01:07:31,000 --> 01:07:34,960 that it officially became the Lennwood Estate's owned by 522 01:07:34,960 --> 01:07:40,400 ad-bric investments, but those are on their way to becoming fully 523 01:07:40,400 --> 01:07:44,180 furnished and functioning homes, and there are seven of them right now. 524 01:07:44,380 --> 01:07:49,180 So I have an update from Alexander Bourd Bar, and he is of Lennwood 525 01:07:49,180 --> 01:07:52,360 Estate, and he let me know that they have a night watchman who watches 526 01:07:52,360 --> 01:07:56,540 the properties all night, and there's a security fence to keep the 527 01:07:56,540 --> 01:08:02,760 was in the area safe. They are still in the demolition phase, although it looks like some things 528 01:08:02,760 --> 01:08:11,920 are going up and they're still taking some redoing some renovations on the inside. But they're 529 01:08:11,920 --> 01:08:20,760 definitely progressing over there. And they also have some exciting news that they are using local 530 01:08:20,760 --> 01:08:27,860 labor and local suppliers as much as possible to finish these. So they had a requirement in the 531 01:08:27,860 --> 01:08:33,880 agreement that when we sold the property with them that they would have these homes ready to be 532 01:08:33,880 --> 01:08:39,740 sold within 18 months. So they, from what Alex Alexander has let me know that they are on track to be 533 01:08:39,740 --> 01:08:45,260 able to do that. So that's really exciting. We're happy to see some new housing features out there 534 01:08:45,260 --> 01:08:51,060 one would area. And then one of the other things that we have another exciting project in the 535 01:08:51,060 --> 01:08:58,880 city is Spanish trails. So this will be coming to Council actually, within the next few months 536 01:08:58,880 --> 01:09:07,080 there we have Joseph Brady. He is up doing the DDA with the community development department right now. 537 01:09:07,180 --> 01:09:13,180 So he's working hand in hand with Chris and Chris Heldreth and Brad Merrill and just working on 538 01:09:13,180 --> 01:09:14,440 on updating this area. 539 01:09:16,080 --> 01:09:21,320 So this you can see half of it is in that opportunity zone 540 01:09:21,320 --> 01:09:22,300 that we just talked about. 541 01:09:22,500 --> 01:09:25,320 So it's a good opportunity for local investors 542 01:09:25,320 --> 01:09:30,340 to be able to have prime access to the downtown area of Barso 543 01:09:31,200 --> 01:09:35,380 and then as well as be able to take that benefit 544 01:09:35,380 --> 01:09:36,860 of the opportunity zones. 545 01:09:38,900 --> 01:09:40,640 And then these are just some of the other developments 546 01:09:40,640 --> 01:09:45,840 that we've had throughout the year. I won't go ahead and I won't read all of them, but some 547 01:09:45,840 --> 01:09:51,200 of them are pretty exciting. Reebok, Spanish Trails, or they've done some tenant improvements. 548 01:09:52,980 --> 01:09:56,940 And then, of course, I'm sure everybody knows that there is a raising canes coming to 549 01:09:56,940 --> 01:10:03,300 our cell. I think that they are supposed to anticipate an opening towards the end of April, maybe May, 550 01:10:03,300 --> 01:10:12,260 of course in Amaria and then we have American courts who is on track to be able to open up on their schedule. 551 01:10:13,380 --> 01:10:25,900 Again, our community development department has worked really hard to be able to get them to all their different access to equipment and inspections. 552 01:10:26,720 --> 01:10:29,700 And they are really great partners here in the city of Burstow. 553 01:10:30,400 --> 01:10:36,340 So I'm going to go into a few of the different grants that we have on schedule here at the city too. 554 01:10:36,560 --> 01:10:41,240 One of the greatest ones in the Economic Development Department is the Community Development Block grants. 555 01:10:41,780 --> 01:10:48,900 Which I know our council is, I would say very familiar with them because on the 23rd we had our community development, 556 01:10:50,740 --> 01:10:57,200 our hearing and the council got a chance to look at this year's CDBG. 557 01:10:57,200 --> 01:11:02,220 So there are two different ones that are running through the city right now as community development 558 01:11:02,220 --> 01:11:08,280 block grant, the normal one that runs every fiscal year, and then there's CDBG CV, which 559 01:11:08,280 --> 01:11:11,460 will also here as an agenda item later this evening. 560 01:11:12,220 --> 01:11:17,960 And this one was designed specifically to target coronavirus-related relief. 561 01:11:19,840 --> 01:11:25,740 And a good overview of just understanding how the community development block grant affects the city. 562 01:11:25,740 --> 01:11:36,880 So these are the areas within San Bernardino County that the county and ministers CDBG and this is the block group that that is affected by it. 563 01:11:37,280 --> 01:11:44,620 And then it goes down even further where within the city there are CDBG areas. So this is the area within the city. 564 01:11:44,620 --> 01:11:50,600 When we are, or when this, the county is reviewing applications on a year to year basis, 565 01:11:51,740 --> 01:11:56,040 they're ensuring that it actually falls within the CDBGA area. 566 01:11:57,400 --> 01:12:04,040 Every year, we have the, or organizations have the ability to apply for CDBG. 567 01:12:04,060 --> 01:12:07,540 So like I mentioned, there's a couple different CDBG running right now. 568 01:12:07,940 --> 01:12:13,380 The CDBG CV is separate, but this one applies for the year leaf fiscal year CDBG. 569 01:12:14,620 --> 01:12:21,360 And around the same time every year, it's October 13th, so that maybe second week in October, 570 01:12:22,420 --> 01:12:27,420 you'll see the application open up, and then that first week in December is when the application is closed. 571 01:12:27,940 --> 01:12:34,780 And then at that time, in the county, they review it, they determine whether or not that project is eligible, 572 01:12:35,520 --> 01:12:42,280 and then it comes back to us, and then that's when the council and when you see it, and we go through the process of what we just did. 573 01:12:42,280 --> 01:12:44,940 and we'll go ahead and continue that tonight too. 574 01:12:45,040 --> 01:12:48,760 We have that on a as an agenda item later as well. 575 01:12:49,560 --> 01:12:52,520 And then we also have the affordable housing 576 01:12:52,520 --> 01:12:54,480 and sustainable communities grant program. 577 01:12:54,800 --> 01:12:58,360 So we have done an update or I have done I guess I should say, 578 01:12:58,520 --> 01:13:00,580 an update to the council previously on this. 579 01:13:00,980 --> 01:13:03,440 So if there are any questions I'm happy to answer them 580 01:13:03,440 --> 01:13:06,180 after that, but for the community who might not be aware, 581 01:13:06,640 --> 01:13:10,360 this is a project on seventh avenue and it is intended 582 01:13:10,360 --> 01:13:18,500 to be a transportation focus and green house energy focus housing community. 583 01:13:19,360 --> 01:13:26,880 So there's going to be a proposal for new transit opportunities for new bike paths, 584 01:13:26,980 --> 01:13:31,840 for new walking paths, just really a component of everything that meets what's called 585 01:13:31,840 --> 01:13:33,920 the Strategic Growth Councils goals. 586 01:13:34,540 --> 01:13:40,080 And we will be applying to this in June and we have held numerous community engagement workshops 587 01:13:40,080 --> 01:13:46,320 we intend to hold a couple more before the application is due in June and then just some of the other 588 01:13:46,320 --> 01:13:53,800 grants that we've been working on and Domingo will be chatting about a couple of these tonight. 589 01:13:54,220 --> 01:14:01,500 Well, Domingo will reveal to you the active transportation program. We're really excited to be able to 590 01:14:01,500 --> 01:14:07,820 to see all of his hard work come through so I will let him take the limelight on that and I believe 591 01:14:07,820 --> 01:14:13,200 that is Brad, who's doing the first Avenue Bridge project update. So I won't take any of that from him either. 592 01:14:13,760 --> 01:14:18,800 And then we have the leap grant in the SB2 grant, which has been really helpful in us 593 01:14:18,800 --> 01:14:24,500 of doing our general plan update in the specific Avenue 7 or the 7th Avenue specific plan. 594 01:14:25,020 --> 01:14:31,740 And then we also had Domingo, Domingo Gonzalez and Kyle Woolly apply for the Prop 68, 595 01:14:31,960 --> 01:14:37,720 which is Parks and Recreation Funding. So fingers crossed for that one. But we just have had 596 01:14:37,820 --> 01:14:43,940 numerous grants running throughout the year and how worked really as a team to be able to 597 01:14:43,940 --> 01:14:49,300 get some of those across the finish line. And Domingo has worked very, very hard and we're 598 01:14:49,300 --> 01:14:56,480 really proud of him on that ATP one. And just some other items. So I would like to think that the 599 01:14:56,480 --> 01:14:57,420 out and for 600 01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:09,040 Offering the city of Barso, a scholarship for an intro to economic development course, which allowed me to cover some of these topics that are here. 601 01:15:09,440 --> 01:15:18,360 So if the council has any desire to learn a little bit more about these topics, more of the council, maybe you want to just discuss what this intro to economic development course is. 602 01:15:18,860 --> 01:15:22,160 Feel free to let Dr. Hart know. 603 01:15:22,160 --> 01:15:33,320 You know, again, we were very thankful to receive that Caled scholarship for this program, but feel free to just let Dr. Hurt know if this is of any desire to any of the council members. 604 01:15:35,040 --> 01:15:38,020 And then we also last year had the census 2020. 605 01:15:39,700 --> 01:15:47,860 It was obviously a little shaken up, but they normally thought it would have been due to COVID. 606 01:15:47,860 --> 01:15:50,800 So it wasn't what you thought it might have been 607 01:15:50,800 --> 01:15:52,480 where you could have host big events 608 01:15:53,200 --> 01:15:55,740 and get people to fill out the census. 609 01:15:56,120 --> 01:15:57,920 Like we had maybe had hoped. 610 01:15:58,880 --> 01:16:02,560 But we did, we were a strong partner with the census 611 01:16:02,560 --> 01:16:05,600 and we worked collaboratively with the county 612 01:16:05,600 --> 01:16:07,640 and because we recognized the importance 613 01:16:08,440 --> 01:16:11,500 of completing that to our full stability 614 01:16:11,500 --> 01:16:13,940 because it does affect our community for the next decade. 615 01:16:13,940 --> 01:16:25,740 And this is just a little snapshot from the census website where you can see some of the top programs where the funding goes to and what the census affects. 616 01:16:26,660 --> 01:16:34,800 And this of course is just a little plaque that the city got in response to helping with the census. 617 01:16:35,700 --> 01:16:45,460 And then one other exciting thing that we have in the economic development department, so we are thrilled to be doing a transition at the Harvey House. 618 01:16:45,660 --> 01:16:53,820 So we have retail space there right now, and we are taking over the property management at the Harvey House. 619 01:16:53,880 --> 01:17:01,900 So we are excited to be able to work with not only the tenants that are there now, but to continue reaching out to the community and make sure the community is aware 620 01:17:01,900 --> 01:17:13,780 that the beautiful Harvey House has historic retail space or a commercial space available for any of the local bar still businesses that may be interested. 621 01:17:17,140 --> 01:17:27,440 And then just some public information updates that may have been provided to the Council in a report before, but I'll just go ahead and provide that now as well. 622 01:17:27,440 --> 01:17:32,860 So for our Facebook, over the last year, as you can see, 623 01:17:33,160 --> 01:17:35,260 we have had an increase in engagement. 624 01:17:36,260 --> 01:17:41,300 I think that a lot of this is attributed to the city, 625 01:17:42,140 --> 01:17:44,960 really focusing on making sure that we can 626 01:17:44,960 --> 01:17:48,940 reach the community in response to what you can consider as a crisis 627 01:17:49,680 --> 01:17:50,720 throughout the last year. 628 01:17:50,740 --> 01:17:54,000 So we've just really been focused on making sure 629 01:17:54,000 --> 01:17:56,920 that we share pertinent information, whether it's from the county, 630 01:17:56,920 --> 01:18:04,640 whether it's from our supervisors, or the county board of supervisors, or our state senators, 631 01:18:05,240 --> 01:18:09,640 just making sure the community continues to get that engagement and that response from us. 632 01:18:10,640 --> 01:18:16,620 And we have been fortunate to see that the community is responding in our engagement on our social 633 01:18:16,620 --> 01:18:25,200 media channels. And this, again, just shows you that just over time, the engagement has gone up and 634 01:18:25,200 --> 01:18:27,480 are using this as a really strong platform 635 01:18:27,480 --> 01:18:29,400 to be able to communicate with the community. 636 01:18:30,520 --> 01:18:32,200 One of the areas where we could improve, 637 01:18:32,500 --> 01:18:35,960 might be Twitter because based on the other platforms, 638 01:18:36,020 --> 01:18:37,500 the engagement is a little bit stronger, 639 01:18:37,820 --> 01:18:40,700 but here, admittedly, this is an opportunity 640 01:18:40,700 --> 01:18:42,440 for us to grow here on Twitter. 641 01:18:43,360 --> 01:18:45,600 And then I will also do an update for Channel 6 642 01:18:45,600 --> 01:18:47,500 because I know that there was a question last, 643 01:18:48,000 --> 01:18:49,520 I believe last council meeting. 644 01:18:50,480 --> 01:19:00,300 So I believe in April, fingers crossed, they are supposed to be able to get that ready to go. 645 01:19:01,020 --> 01:19:06,820 The channel six will be continuing to improve even after it's live. 646 01:19:07,260 --> 01:19:13,480 I know the audio is going to take maybe about a month or so before it's fully, fully functioning. 647 01:19:13,480 --> 01:19:19,260 So that is just in the works. People may have seen some testing that we have been doing. 648 01:19:19,920 --> 01:19:22,440 It was not necessarily somebody else taking over our channel. 649 01:19:22,740 --> 01:19:26,260 It was just some background testing that they didn't realize that our IT department 650 01:19:26,260 --> 01:19:31,260 or the contractors did not realize that was getting broadcasted there. 651 01:19:31,780 --> 01:19:35,660 But that hopefully should be coming up soon and then we'll be able to broadcast more there. 652 01:19:35,740 --> 01:19:41,120 It's a peg channel, which means that it can broadcast education and just community updates as well. 653 01:19:41,940 --> 01:19:54,180 And of course, we have 18, so the economic development department, although I'm the economic development administrator, it really is just a component of everybody at the city of Barsdale. 654 01:19:54,400 --> 01:20:04,680 So if you open that development brochure that I had mentioned early on in my presentation, and at the very end of that, you will find the development team members, but it does not stop here. 655 01:20:04,680 --> 01:20:11,220 It includes people like Rebecca Thorpe, who was our consulting city planner, Brian Merrill, 656 01:20:11,480 --> 01:20:20,300 who is our city engineer, Chris Heldreath, obviously. We are excited to have Anthony Riley as 657 01:20:20,300 --> 01:20:26,020 our as an economic development consultant and we're just really excited to be able to have a team 658 01:20:26,020 --> 01:20:32,160 that focuses on economic development and it's not really, it's not happening in a silo. It's happening 659 01:20:32,160 --> 01:20:34,580 within the whole city of Barsau. 660 01:20:35,400 --> 01:20:38,380 So it is just all of these staff members coming together 661 01:20:38,380 --> 01:20:42,380 to be able to meet the goals and the desires 662 01:20:42,380 --> 01:20:43,400 for the community. 663 01:20:44,240 --> 01:20:45,980 And with that, must there are any questions? 664 01:20:47,340 --> 01:20:48,600 I am done with my presentation. 665 01:20:50,300 --> 01:20:52,280 I have a couple of questions, Mayor. 666 01:20:53,380 --> 01:20:54,780 Yes, go ahead, I'm Mayor Porto. 667 01:20:56,360 --> 01:20:59,120 So, Amanda, can you please go back to slide two? 668 01:20:59,660 --> 01:21:00,180 Of course. 669 01:21:03,580 --> 01:21:07,020 Can you make that a little bit larger please? 670 01:21:07,280 --> 01:21:07,420 Yeah. 671 01:21:14,770 --> 01:21:16,050 It's so hard to read. 672 01:21:17,490 --> 01:21:20,510 Can you show me where the economic development is? 673 01:21:23,460 --> 01:21:23,680 Yes. 674 01:21:23,940 --> 01:21:26,840 So, right here, I'm not sure, can you see me toggle? 675 01:21:27,540 --> 01:21:27,760 Yes. 676 01:21:27,940 --> 01:21:28,340 I see it. 677 01:21:28,680 --> 01:21:29,580 I'll see it now. 678 01:21:30,000 --> 01:21:30,280 Okay. 679 01:21:31,500 --> 01:21:31,960 Thank you. 680 01:21:32,700 --> 01:21:38,260 And just a quick question on the org charge, do we not have somebody that has updated that? 681 01:21:38,260 --> 01:21:40,680 because I see that there's some cross-outs, 682 01:21:40,680 --> 01:21:42,200 probably from, 683 01:21:43,480 --> 01:21:45,020 it's an outdated one. 684 01:21:45,220 --> 01:21:45,560 Correct. 685 01:21:45,760 --> 01:21:52,780 So this is from the city's website on the budget. 686 01:21:54,320 --> 01:21:55,220 So it wouldn't, 687 01:21:56,860 --> 01:21:59,680 there are websites still has incorrect names. 688 01:22:00,620 --> 01:22:02,220 Outdated names, should I say? 689 01:22:04,700 --> 01:22:06,700 I thought you can check into it, 690 01:22:06,820 --> 01:22:07,500 but I was just curious, 691 01:22:07,500 --> 01:22:37,480 I was just wondering so if you can check into that because I think that I'm hopefully that with that, you know, our website is updated with the current names right I guess wanted of course this was so since this was from the budget and this was just, you know, I I pulled it from the budget I had previously been approved this is just within a standing document but I do I do see what you're saying I'm not sure whether or not this is housed anywhere other than the budget, but I that is definitely something that I can look at. 692 01:22:37,500 --> 01:22:42,580 to. That would be great. Thank you. And I just want to tell you, thank you for for a really good 693 01:22:43,300 --> 01:22:48,620 presentation. I do have another question for the Lennwood estate, seven homes. Who's the 694 01:22:48,620 --> 01:22:55,200 realtor? Is it the actual owners that are going to be renting these out? And if so, is there a 695 01:22:55,200 --> 01:23:01,840 contact or a process that a residents could, who are interested they can contact and maybe get their 696 01:23:01,840 --> 01:23:08,540 applications in. Yes, so I'm not sure about the realtor that they are going to eventually use, 697 01:23:08,820 --> 01:23:17,500 but there is a point of contact. His name is Alexander, and the Lennwood Estates is the title 698 01:23:17,500 --> 01:23:25,980 of the company. So you can go to lennwoodestates.com. You can type it in right here. Lennwoodestates.com, 699 01:23:26,300 --> 01:23:31,340 and then either you can reach out to me and I can put you in contact with Alexander or 700 01:23:33,180 --> 01:23:38,040 On here, there might be a way to locate a contact info there, too. 701 01:23:38,320 --> 01:23:41,120 I'm not sure if they've chosen an actual realtor yet. 702 01:23:41,780 --> 01:23:44,240 When is the anticipated date for completion? 703 01:23:45,320 --> 01:23:48,600 I don't have the actual anticipated date for completion. 704 01:23:49,300 --> 01:23:50,760 They are just on track. 705 01:23:52,480 --> 01:23:58,040 According to what the requirement was when we had sold the property, 706 01:23:58,040 --> 01:24:01,880 was within the 18 months of that contract was signed. 707 01:24:04,260 --> 01:24:06,560 I appreciate it. So when we do find out the 708 01:24:06,560 --> 01:24:12,160 information, it would be nice to put this on our website because I know that housing is so hard to 709 01:24:12,160 --> 01:24:19,760 come by here in Bursu and I would love for us to be transparent on this so that those that are 710 01:24:19,760 --> 01:24:24,920 interested can apply and find out what the process is with the deadline is, et cetera. 711 01:24:28,360 --> 01:24:29,460 So thank you 712 01:24:30,720 --> 01:24:36,480 the office, that's exciting to hear that, you know, we're going to be offering these. 713 01:24:36,780 --> 01:24:38,820 Is it easily accessible? 714 01:24:39,720 --> 01:24:45,980 The pricing of various offices and, you know, if I wanted to rent an office, 715 01:24:45,980 --> 01:24:54,000 per se, can I go somewhere on our website to look at the different dimensions of the offices and the pricing? 716 01:24:55,060 --> 01:25:03,120 Currently no, so we like it's mentioned here, it was previously managed by a property management company and since the city is taking this over. 717 01:25:03,740 --> 01:25:11,000 We are in the idea phase right now of taking all these ideas where you're saying, you know, we should. 718 01:25:12,020 --> 01:25:16,200 It'd be easier to have it on the website so any other recommendations for this. 719 01:25:16,580 --> 01:25:21,740 This is a great opportunity to hear them and we'll be able to put those in the implementation phase. 720 01:25:21,740 --> 01:25:32,200 So, right now as it stands, no, but it is the intention to make it available where you can look at the different retail spaces, almost as if it's a map. 721 01:25:32,780 --> 01:25:35,640 And then to be able to see the different offices that are available. 722 01:25:36,360 --> 01:25:39,700 We do have the intention of making that available at some point. 723 01:25:39,880 --> 01:25:42,860 But any other recommendations we would love to hear them. 724 01:25:43,100 --> 01:25:44,340 Okay, we still need help. 725 01:25:45,200 --> 01:25:47,960 Thank you so much. One more thing, and then I'll be done. 726 01:25:47,960 --> 01:26:13,980 So, channel six. So, you know, we're, we're looking and I'm excited. We're looking at, you know, potentially first of April, may or may not happen because I think that, you know, we're hopeful. But can you please let everybody know what the hold of us, why it has been taking so long. I think that we own explanation to our, to our residences to why we still are not up on channel six. 727 01:26:13,980 --> 01:26:19,760 Yes, so our IT department has been working with a contractor to be able to update 728 01:26:19,760 --> 01:26:25,760 Channel 6 and to be able to get a little bit more modernized and easier to watch for residents 729 01:26:25,760 --> 01:26:32,960 in their home. We had used some CARES funding to be able to update Channel 6 and when we had 730 01:26:32,960 --> 01:26:37,480 initially applied for that CARES funding it was, I believe the deadline was end of December. 731 01:26:38,020 --> 01:26:41,920 So we had to finish whatever we were doing to the end of December. Then the government realized 732 01:26:41,920 --> 01:26:44,440 that that was maybe a little bit too short of a timeline, 733 01:26:44,640 --> 01:26:45,540 so they extended that. 734 01:26:45,880 --> 01:26:49,080 So our IT department, thinking, you know, 735 01:26:49,240 --> 01:26:50,960 we would be really should put some more time into this 736 01:26:50,960 --> 01:26:52,380 and make sure that we do it right, 737 01:26:52,500 --> 01:26:54,840 given that now we have the time for it. 738 01:26:55,560 --> 01:26:57,140 They have been working with the contractor 739 01:26:57,140 --> 01:27:00,140 to be able to make sure that we have pulled that up to speed 740 01:27:01,520 --> 01:27:04,040 appropriately and adequately to make sure 741 01:27:04,900 --> 01:27:06,840 that the improvements that we're doing 742 01:27:06,840 --> 01:27:08,180 are actually going to be noticed. 743 01:27:08,840 --> 01:27:10,240 So it is a bit of a delay 744 01:27:10,240 --> 01:27:17,220 from what we had initially anticipated just because of the rules changed for some of that 745 01:27:17,220 --> 01:27:23,920 care funding. And our IT department has been working incredibly hard being able to make sure 746 01:27:23,920 --> 01:27:28,840 that this is done right. So that is why that is why there's a little bit of a delay and there 747 01:27:28,840 --> 01:27:34,260 will be a little bit more of a delay until we make sure that everything is done to the us of our 748 01:27:35,480 --> 01:27:51,360 Thank you now. Do we have an update like on our website to say, you know, like an anticipated, you know, date of maybe first of April so that if a resident want, you know, is not watching tonight that they can actually go to our website and they can say, oh, I can find out what's going on with Channel 6. 749 01:27:52,120 --> 01:28:02,360 I don't know. I don't think it's, it's been posted to the website. I know that it's been posted to social media quite a few times, but I don't think that there is a Channel 6 update page. 750 01:28:02,360 --> 01:28:04,400 So, I'm opposed to our website. 751 01:28:05,460 --> 01:28:08,320 There are a few people who post our website right now. 752 01:28:08,740 --> 01:28:14,020 So, each department post our website depends on who is managing it. 753 01:28:14,600 --> 01:28:17,720 And we all kind of take turns on helping each other out. 754 01:28:17,800 --> 01:28:22,020 So, Christina Redsole has actually been a ton of help being able to get some things up. 755 01:28:22,800 --> 01:28:27,520 I have offered my assistance in putting some things up to the website as well. 756 01:28:28,000 --> 01:28:32,340 Anthony has pulled through and helped update the website. 757 01:28:32,340 --> 01:28:38,960 site recently more recently as well. So we can add this definitely. If there is in a channel 758 01:28:38,960 --> 01:28:43,420 section, I forgive me, I don't know if there's a channel 6 page off the top of my head, 759 01:28:43,520 --> 01:28:48,980 but we can most definitely add this there, either as a news item. I can, we'll fluently 760 01:28:48,980 --> 01:28:53,320 we can check it now too. Well, you know, I just recommend that you have a conversation with Dr. Hard 761 01:28:53,320 --> 01:28:58,080 and how he wants to move forward and should come through him, but I was just curious if it was on the 762 01:28:58,080 --> 01:29:03,760 website. I really appreciate you know everything you've done. So thank you. 763 01:29:03,920 --> 01:29:05,440 Of course. Yeah.

And there's definitely a guard on do 771 01:29:43,880 --> 01:29:49,400 get night to make sure people go ahead and do what they have done in the past. When it comes 772 01:29:49,400 --> 01:29:54,880 the Harvey House, the Harvey House is a proud on track and the back under the direction of 773 01:29:54,880 --> 01:29:58,640 city staff.

It's hundreds and hundreds 829 01:35:48,440 --> 01:35:53,480 and hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of pages. This is the homework that your electric governor 830 01:35:53,480 --> 01:36:00,260 is all of a staff. We're engaged in this on a regular basis to make sure that when we do present 831 01:36:00,260 --> 01:36:06,260 and make decisions and thought that if we do our due diligence as well as a homework to make sure 832 01:36:06,260 --> 01:36:15,060 we'll make an important decision in the best interests of our community. Just to demonstrate once again, 833 01:36:16,480 --> 01:36:28,880 we are making decisions always in the best interests of our community and what's for best for 834 01:36:28,880 --> 01:36:35,160 Moffy treasurer reports to make sure there's no question as to what we're at 835 01:36:35,680 --> 01:36:38,750 Where we've been and what we are going 836 01:36:39,640 --> 01:36:44,260 So how's it looking there Michael? I'm having I'm having technical issues and unfortunately 837 01:36:44,260 --> 01:36:49,660 I'm not there so can't can't run down and help me so give me just a second if you want to go on to the next item 838 01:36:51,720 --> 01:36:57,810 So if it's okay with the governor's we'll come back to the treasurer what was I done before and we're just going over to 839 01:36:58,630 --> 01:37:01,490 item or five on the first 840 01:37:01,490 --> 01:37:03,410 and new grades replacement budget update 841 01:37:03,410 --> 01:37:05,370 and our presenter is the 842 01:37:06,090 --> 01:37:06,530 Mingo. 843 01:37:07,050 --> 01:37:08,490 Does all of us, are you there in the 844 01:37:08,490 --> 01:37:08,770 Mingo? 845 01:37:09,870 --> 01:37:10,510 I am here. 846 01:37:10,610 --> 01:37:12,430 I believe Brad's going to take this one. 847 01:37:14,350 --> 01:37:14,410 Yeah. 848 01:37:14,410 --> 01:37:15,970 Let me see if I can share my screen. 849 01:37:17,070 --> 01:37:18,690 Oh, there's Brad right there. 850 01:37:19,010 --> 01:37:19,650 Why are you doing Brad? 851 01:37:20,670 --> 01:37:21,450 Good, you. 852 01:37:22,070 --> 01:37:23,390 Hey, living a dream. 853 01:37:24,030 --> 01:37:25,190 Can you see my screen? 854 01:37:25,430 --> 01:37:26,650 Yes, I can see your screen. 855 01:37:27,690 --> 01:37:28,650 that's amazing. 856 01:37:31,190 --> 01:37:34,610 It's the most nerve-wracking part of this whole thing used to share your screen. 857 01:37:35,930 --> 01:37:41,950 Yeah, this technology thing is interesting to say at least. So I was thinking we could just 858 01:37:41,950 --> 01:37:44,590 skip on down to the last one and say, is there any questions? 859 01:37:47,010 --> 01:37:48,650 Is there any questions before I get started? 860 01:37:50,530 --> 01:37:56,390 No questions at this point. I don't believe so. No, okay. I'm really excited about this project right here. 861 01:37:56,390 --> 01:38:02,750 It's big deal. I could talk online about this project, but I won't. So the first, the North 862 01:38:02,750 --> 01:38:10,430 First Avenue Bridge replacement projects, we'll just jump right into some some phrases here 863 01:38:10,430 --> 01:38:16,190 that we use a lot of acronyms working with CalTrans. The first one is PE and that's preliminary 864 01:38:16,190 --> 01:38:22,010 engineering phase. You've also heard a term PAD a lot that stands for planning approval 865 01:38:22,010 --> 01:38:26,950 environmental documents phase and then PS&E and that's probably a little bit more 866 01:38:26,950 --> 01:38:31,590 familiar to a lot of people and that's plan specs and an estimate phase and 867 01:38:31,590 --> 01:38:36,670 then the fourth phase would be the the right away phase and then on the 868 01:38:36,670 --> 01:38:43,890 construction. With CalTrans and local assistance it's kind of like a game of 869 01:38:43,890 --> 01:38:50,010 monopoly or a game board you have to get authorization before you can move a 870 01:38:50,010 --> 01:38:56,290 on your project. So first off, you have to request a federal project number, and then we have to 871 01:38:56,290 --> 01:39:04,090 get a request for authorization. They call that an RFA. And you cannot proceed past go before you get your 872 01:39:04,090 --> 01:39:10,490 RFA, or you get the next one, the authorization agreement summary, and these are called E76's. 873 01:39:11,270 --> 01:39:17,770 And that's just another, don't ask me what E76 stands for, but local assistance, you get an E76 874 01:39:17,770 --> 01:39:25,010 for the BAD, for the PS&E, for the right away, and the construction. If you do not get your authorization, 875 01:39:25,650 --> 01:39:31,970 agreement summary, you cannot proceed to the BAD, PS&E, right away, or construction. So I won't 876 01:39:31,970 --> 01:39:37,770 bore you with all that tonight. This is basically our project. It's kind of an aerial view. 877 01:39:39,470 --> 01:39:44,670 Looking down at first Avenue Bridge, you can see the Harvey House there in the middle. Over here, 878 01:39:44,670 --> 01:39:48,310 where my culture is, that's Del Taco on Hudson Sun and first. 879 01:39:49,790 --> 01:39:52,790 This is the old bridge that will stay up during construction 880 01:39:52,790 --> 01:39:54,410 for the two years of construction. 881 01:39:54,910 --> 01:39:58,670 And then the new bridge here goes off to the west 882 01:39:58,670 --> 01:40:01,370 and comes back in a big 800 foot radius. 883 01:40:02,970 --> 01:40:06,390 Then our next project would be the Mojave River Bridge, 884 01:40:07,210 --> 01:40:09,670 which touches down at Hudson Sun. 885 01:40:09,910 --> 01:40:11,730 I'm sorry, at Riverside Drive and Croix. 886 01:40:12,910 --> 01:40:17,890 And then it goes over the river, east of the existing bridge, east of Buzzer Rock. 887 01:40:18,890 --> 01:40:20,750 And then comes back at Irwin Road. 888 01:40:21,050 --> 01:40:22,110 And then there's a third bridge. 889 01:40:22,230 --> 01:40:25,910 A lot of people don't know about that's called the Mauvi River Overflow Bridge. 890 01:40:26,630 --> 01:40:27,470 And that's over here. 891 01:40:27,830 --> 01:40:29,330 So these two are tied together. 892 01:40:29,570 --> 01:40:33,970 The Mauvi River Bridge consists of two bridge structures. 893 01:40:35,150 --> 01:40:38,450 The Mauvi River Bridge and the Mauvi River Overflow Bridge. 894 01:40:39,250 --> 01:40:47,630 So if you put that all together, these are the project numbers for each project as they go through local assistance of CalTrans. 895 01:40:49,930 --> 01:40:57,650 We have the first avenue bridge, which we call the BNSF bridge, then we have the Mojave River Bridge, and then we have the overflow bridge. 896 01:40:58,710 --> 01:41:06,210 And there's a couple of different names that these bridges are called, or called overheads are called Viadux, we won't get into all that tonight. 897 01:41:06,210 --> 01:41:13,250 This is the actual budget that we have showing Cohen back and estimated causes in 2015. 898 01:41:13,490 --> 01:41:21,810 You can see the first avenue bridge, BNSF overhead, was at $50 million in 2015. 899 01:41:22,450 --> 01:41:28,190 Currently, right now, the project is slated at $64 million. 900 01:41:29,570 --> 01:41:38,130 And I, yes, and the escalation on this is a lot of this is there's about seven million dollars in there and financing funds. 901 01:41:39,310 --> 01:41:50,630 And there's a whole history there. We can talk about, but basically each structure is funded by federal money out of the HPP program, which is the highway bridge program. 902 01:41:51,910 --> 01:42:05,190 And we get 88.53% of federal funds and then our match, our 11.47, is coming out of our shared regional major eye money, which we share with San Bernardino County. 903 01:42:06,610 --> 01:42:11,650 So I really don't have a lot of time to get into the numbers but I'll take questions on that and we can come back to it. 904 01:42:12,590 --> 01:42:15,330 Let me just kind of give you a little schedule. 905 01:42:16,450 --> 01:42:23,350 We started this project in 2012, actually 2011, 2012, working on the first street bridge. 906 01:42:24,390 --> 01:42:30,930 We started with the PAD, which is a planning approval and engineering documents in 2013. 907 01:42:31,970 --> 01:42:39,550 We've been working on that. We were delayed on that on the first 70 bridge for 22 months on one noise study. 908 01:42:39,550 --> 01:42:47,570 One noise study took 22 months to complete in which got the results of that noise study with a one page letter that said do nothing. 909 01:42:49,890 --> 01:42:54,130 Again, I could spend hours talking about this project, but I'll move on. 910 01:42:54,790 --> 01:42:55,710 We are in the right away. 911 01:42:56,750 --> 01:43:02,570 Where the red line is here, where my cursor is, that's kind of where we are right now with the two projects. 912 01:43:03,570 --> 01:43:23,370 Based on our old schedule, we were supposed to be under construction by now, with a completion in 2022, as you can see, we are looking at maybe the end of this year for construction, definitely this year for construction on the railroad work, the mitigation work, actually the right away work. 913 01:43:23,370 --> 01:43:35,450 And then it is a two to three year project and we're looking at the end of 2024 for the completion of the first bridge, the BNSF overhead. 914 01:43:38,050 --> 01:43:42,570 The Mojave River Bridge, we're in the preliminary engineering phase right now. 915 01:43:42,770 --> 01:43:51,570 We have completed the PAD and we're moving towards the actual E76 for the right away in the PS&E. 916 01:43:51,570 --> 01:43:59,490 But we are being held up based on going back to the original RFA, the request for authorization. 917 01:43:59,490 --> 01:44:06,930 We haven't got a request for authorization for funds to be moved for the actual work to continue. 918 01:44:07,150 --> 01:44:14,290 So we're kind of like in a circling pattern on the Mojave River Bridge project right now. 919 01:44:14,290 --> 01:44:18,270 going back to the BNSF project that overhead. 920 01:44:19,230 --> 01:44:21,390 This is kind of an overlay of all the right-of-weigh 921 01:44:21,390 --> 01:44:23,350 acquisitions that we've had to do. 922 01:44:24,110 --> 01:44:27,250 The pink here is construction temporary construction 923 01:44:27,250 --> 01:44:29,490 easements that we have to acquire from the railroad. 924 01:44:30,350 --> 01:44:34,270 And we have completed the actual construction 925 01:44:34,270 --> 01:44:37,330 and maintenance agreement with BNSF that's taken over 926 01:44:37,330 --> 01:44:38,610 three years to complete. 927 01:44:39,490 --> 01:44:42,030 We are at the process now where you guys approved it 928 01:44:42,030 --> 01:44:49,190 last council meeting, SPCTA approved it in their last board meeting, and BNSF is now getting 929 01:44:49,190 --> 01:44:52,650 it signed. So as soon as they get that signed, we will have that under our belt, 930 01:44:53,690 --> 01:44:59,970 which is a long time coming. So this green area here, we pretty much have 931 01:45:00,000 --> 01:45:15,120 All the property and the stuff here from the city and we can talk about right away acquisitions and orders of possessions and determine of anyway. 932 01:45:15,820 --> 01:45:26,720 These are some of the homes here that we took down. We actually acquired these got right a possession of them and then did as best as statement on them and then actually had them demolished. 933 01:45:27,600 --> 01:45:33,780 Here's another look at the old Martin garage crossing in Del Taco and you can see some 934 01:45:33,780 --> 01:45:34,640 cottages down here. 935 01:45:34,700 --> 01:45:39,700 We had a lot of problems with code enforcement and that these are all torn down now and 936 01:45:39,700 --> 01:45:44,200 that was all paid through through the project and we're now in the process of trying to 937 01:45:44,200 --> 01:45:49,200 get all the funding on that cleared up with our requests for authorizations. 938 01:45:51,400 --> 01:45:55,260 Moving right along the bridge replacement, the design features of the new bridge is kind 939 01:45:55,260 --> 01:46:03,800 cross section of a concrete box girder. It's post tensioning. So after the bridge is poured, 940 01:46:03,800 --> 01:46:08,820 they come in with big cables and tension the bridge and it kind of lifts out of the forms. 941 01:46:09,640 --> 01:46:15,420 But it's a 800 foot radius. We're going to have an eight foot sidewalk on one side with guard 942 01:46:15,420 --> 01:46:19,400 rails protecting the pedestrians from the traffic. 943 01:46:21,640 --> 01:46:24,960 It will be built parallel to the old bridge and 944 01:46:24,960 --> 01:46:29,720 will be able to maintain access throughout the construction. And then once we shift traffic onto 945 01:46:29,720 --> 01:46:36,080 this new bridge, the old bridge will then be demolished. The old bridge has to be removed because 946 01:46:36,080 --> 01:46:43,260 of several issues and we'll talk about that in another slide here. This is kind of a profile look 947 01:46:43,260 --> 01:46:49,960 of the new bridge over the railroad and this is just a plan view showing the lanes and the configuration 948 01:46:50,680 --> 01:46:54,920 And there will be two 12 foot lanes, two eight foot shoulders. 949 01:46:55,700 --> 01:46:59,060 So if you break down on the bridge, you can pull over to the side and you won't be blocking 950 01:46:59,060 --> 01:46:59,620 traffic. 951 01:47:00,700 --> 01:47:04,320 And there'll also be an eight foot sidewalk and then right here in the middle we're trying 952 01:47:04,320 --> 01:47:11,620 to build an outlook where people can walk out to it and sit out there and a lawn chair if they 953 01:47:11,620 --> 01:47:14,960 want to carry it out there with them and look at the change for a while. 954 01:47:14,960 --> 01:47:19,740 That's one of the nice features of the bridge we'll talk about with our additional funding. 955 01:47:21,100 --> 01:47:25,840 So the replacement of the bridge, the existing bridge must be removed. 956 01:47:26,240 --> 01:47:27,180 It's no longer needed. 957 01:47:27,860 --> 01:47:29,500 It's a public safety issue. 958 01:47:30,400 --> 01:47:33,200 The continued maintenance and cost on the bridge. 959 01:47:34,240 --> 01:47:36,540 You can talk to our public works. 960 01:47:36,880 --> 01:47:41,760 Cruise on how they have to go down there and tighten up the shins on the forms and its a liability. 961 01:47:41,760 --> 01:47:50,740 So currently this is what is holding up the bridge when I started on this project in 2011 we had a weight limit on the bridge. 962 01:47:51,480 --> 01:47:56,700 We had a seven ton weight limit, our fire trucks were having a hard time going across it. 963 01:47:56,860 --> 01:48:04,360 We came in and put in a false work which what you're looking at right here is the latest set of false work that our public works crew put in. 964 01:48:04,360 --> 01:48:10,500 our public works crew, not a contract source, came in, put in the false work under engineering 965 01:48:10,500 --> 01:48:17,560 direction and jacked it up and this is what is taken the bridge from a efficiency rating of 966 01:48:17,560 --> 01:48:26,600 a 2 out of 100 to a 37 right now. So this is one thing that we go down, you can see some of the 967 01:48:26,600 --> 01:48:31,460 shims here that we have to go in and tighten every month. The crew came up with some innovative 968 01:48:31,460 --> 01:48:35,920 of mechanical tight wedges here that seem to be working pretty good. 969 01:48:38,590 --> 01:48:44,150 Some of the architectural features of the project, we're trying to tie the bridge into the 970 01:48:44,150 --> 01:48:49,270 Harvey House with its architecture so that when we're done this bridge looks nice. 971 01:48:49,950 --> 01:48:55,730 We're looking at on the abutments, putting some sculpture that kind of matches the Harvey 972 01:48:55,730 --> 01:49:02,690 House sculptures, maybe some archwork and all this stuff is in design right now. 973 01:49:02,690 --> 01:49:13,930 We we have decided on on this circle floating here and and that's actually in the plans right now and we're working on this cornerstone look. 974 01:49:14,710 --> 01:49:19,590 Also we're going to be putting some nice lights on the bridge that kind of match the Harvey house. 975 01:49:20,530 --> 01:49:30,370 These are going to be built custom to match the Harvey house and these will be along the the traveled way along the pedestrian walkway. 976 01:49:31,250 --> 01:49:36,110 And these are some of the architectural features on the Harvey House that we're trying to incorporate into the bridge. 977 01:49:36,670 --> 01:49:38,210 It's kind of a nice touch. 978 01:49:40,370 --> 01:49:51,790 Then there's a big retaining wall looking back at the area of B.B. Hill where we tore down the Martins mechanic shop. 979 01:49:52,370 --> 01:49:55,970 There is a retaining wall in there and we're looking at putting some art on that retaining wall. 980 01:49:55,970 --> 01:50:04,190 And this is some artwork that the Domingo spent a lot of time on fancy and it up and we're 981 01:50:04,190 --> 01:50:08,250 hoping to do this, we were hoping to do this in the concrete work on the wall, but our 982 01:50:08,250 --> 01:50:13,910 latest estimate was a million dollars and we've scrapped that because those funds aren't 983 01:50:13,910 --> 01:50:19,630 eligible for federal funding. So we're going to be looking at trying to do something maybe out 984 01:50:19,630 --> 01:50:24,290 of laser cut metal and mounting it to the wall instead of trying to port in the concrete. 985 01:50:24,290 --> 01:50:30,430 But this is one of our designs that we're looking at and we'll be bidonet. 986 01:50:31,150 --> 01:50:40,610 So tonight on the consent agenda is a section 190 grade separation grant funding that we're asking to be approved. 987 01:50:41,510 --> 01:50:46,090 And basically we have filled out all the paperwork and we are on the list. 988 01:50:46,130 --> 01:50:48,170 I think we're number 23 out of 26. 989 01:50:49,550 --> 01:50:57,050 Basically, the California Public Utilities Commission gives away, it's a grant, a $15 million 990 01:50:57,050 --> 01:51:04,310 year, and it will award $5 million to each project every year, so as long as we get on the 991 01:51:04,310 --> 01:51:10,590 list and we meet these five requirements, we can get that money allocated. 992 01:51:11,390 --> 01:51:15,330 That money, since we're the ones that put together the grant, comes to the city of Barcelona, 993 01:51:15,330 --> 01:51:20,610 is our share of the project. And hopefully this five million will help pay for those fancy 994 01:51:20,610 --> 01:51:29,370 lights. They look out and the artwork on the bridge which are not eligible by the federal fundee. 995 01:51:30,210 --> 01:51:39,050 So the environmental document is completed. We did get our her E76 on that. The main 996 01:51:39,050 --> 01:51:43,870 disagreement here, the public highway overpass crossing agreement with BNSF that, like I said, 997 01:51:43,870 --> 01:51:49,410 you guys voted on that and that's getting signed right now. We do have the CPUC order authorizing 998 01:51:49,410 --> 01:51:57,010 the alteration, the GO808B, we do have that. And the last one is a resolution note in that the 999 01:51:57,010 --> 01:52:02,150 city has matching funds to complete the construction. That is on the agenda tonight on the consent 1000 01:52:02,150 --> 01:52:10,230 agenda and that will then be sent on to SBCTA. There's a lot of things I haven't talked about here 1001 01:52:10,230 --> 01:52:16,710 tonight, and I'll try to bring that up in questions that we go along because of the size 1002 01:52:16,710 --> 01:52:22,270 of this project and the three different bridges that are involved in here, we are well 1003 01:52:22,270 --> 01:52:28,190 over a $20 million project and we have to have what they call a high cost agreement with 1004 01:52:28,190 --> 01:52:34,010 CalTrans for us to carry on this project. That was kind of like a block wall that we hit 1005 01:52:34,010 --> 01:52:40,190 on this project as we went along. The federal government let us know that we had to fund 1006 01:52:40,190 --> 01:52:46,250 project on our own and then get it reimbursed. When we were in that meeting we concluded that 1007 01:52:46,250 --> 01:52:50,490 there's going to be some delays as a project because we do not have the means to carry the 1008 01:52:50,490 --> 01:52:56,590 funding on this project. So we've entered into a cooperation agreement with San Bernardino County 1009 01:52:56,590 --> 01:53:04,110 Transportation Authority, SBCTA, and they have the the means to carry this project out and they will 1010 01:53:04,110 --> 01:53:10,030 be the ones putting this project out the bed, bed, and construction, and carry the cash flow. 1011 01:53:11,050 --> 01:53:18,110 And we have already been working with SBCTA with the agreements in place. They have already selected 1012 01:53:18,110 --> 01:53:24,310 a construction management firm to manage this. And I'm sure you've read about that in the article 1013 01:53:24,310 --> 01:53:30,390 that was in the paper here a couple of weeks ago, a week ago. That's another 5.9 million dollar 1014 01:53:30,390 --> 01:53:36,170 part of this project that a firm will come in and manage the construction for SBCTA in the city. 1015 01:53:37,770 --> 01:53:44,550 So with that, I don't have anything else to say, but I'll answer your questions if I can. 1016 01:53:45,070 --> 01:53:46,470 I'll turn it over to you and I'll shut up. 1017 01:53:49,610 --> 01:53:56,650 Well, a grata, you know, once I just want to say congratulations on moving this project forward. 1018 01:53:56,650 --> 01:54:04,610 and for definitely having us having a great relationship with the SBTCA, the Serminal County, 1019 01:54:04,750 --> 01:54:08,110 Serminal County, Transit Authority, I guess you used to be called Sambag. 1020 01:54:08,510 --> 01:54:19,230 Now, it's got a new new name and for them to step up and to carry the financial burden up front. 1021 01:54:20,890 --> 01:54:36,190 I must admit, just tonight I was surprised to see that that 54 million with the 54 million and relatively short time, you know, since 2012 and now we're at 21 so it's like, you know, it is what it is. 1022 01:54:36,190 --> 01:54:43,950 But one thing, Ray Wiff and the other, what members at the SBTA, which I actually said is 1023 01:54:43,950 --> 01:54:49,410 of what members also, they're definitely committed to making this happen in Barsha. 1024 01:54:50,070 --> 01:54:54,970 No question about it. Yes, they are. They've been in a huge help. Oh, they're just 1025 01:54:54,970 --> 01:55:02,410 unbelievable. And they're here when the meetings take place. Barsha comes up in conversation 1026 01:55:02,410 --> 01:55:09,950 on a regular basis, so that they're just as excited almost as we are on making this thing really 1027 01:55:09,950 --> 01:55:15,450 happen. And I'm looking forward to, you know, I'm not trying to speed up the year, but you know, 1028 01:55:15,450 --> 01:55:19,630 2021, you know, we'll definitely be another great year here in Marshall, 1029 01:55:20,250 --> 01:55:26,730 really see that, that bridge, just want to see the dirt move. Even if it just moves us a little bit, 1030 01:55:26,730 --> 01:55:28,930 We know it's moving forward. 1031 01:55:29,710 --> 01:55:34,550 So definitely congratulations to you and your farm and Mingo and staff. 1032 01:55:34,650 --> 01:55:37,930 Everybody, that's been working on this since 2012. 1033 01:55:38,770 --> 01:55:40,230 And now it's here. 1034 01:55:41,050 --> 01:55:42,350 That's right. 1035 01:55:42,570 --> 01:55:44,870 There I have a couple of questions. 1036 01:55:48,410 --> 01:55:49,190 Yes, go ahead. 1037 01:55:49,330 --> 01:55:49,490 Go ahead. 1038 01:55:49,730 --> 01:55:49,790 Thank you. 1039 01:55:51,050 --> 01:55:51,670 Thank you. 1040 01:55:52,710 --> 01:55:54,970 So so Brad, I have a couple of questions. 1041 01:55:55,210 --> 01:55:58,230 And I think that it just basically goes back to, 1042 01:55:58,230 --> 01:56:23,590 I mean, it's exciting that we're going to be joined in the new bridge, I think this is just a wonderful opportunity as long as we have, you know, those partnerships for the funding and that we're moving forward, but it's it's it's been extended to out to 2026 I so 2024 24 26 with the with the and again that's that that's a that's a testament right now. 1043 01:56:23,590 --> 01:56:41,590 Okay. And so, you know, not taking away the excitement to have any new bridge, but I am concerned because you, I mean, it was alarming for me to, you know, when you talked about the public safety and I've heard through the great line about the tightening of that woodwork or whatever that thing is called under the bridge. 1044 01:56:41,990 --> 01:56:45,990 So my question would be, you said we went from a three 1045 01:56:45,990 --> 01:56:51,750 at 100 to a 30 is what you just said on the safety of it. 1046 01:56:51,850 --> 01:56:54,650 So my question is, because that's a warming to me. 1047 01:56:55,270 --> 01:57:00,670 At, you know, are a, do, who's doing the inspection on that? 1048 01:57:00,790 --> 01:57:05,150 Is it internal or do we have an external expert coming in to do an inspection? 1049 01:57:05,870 --> 01:57:11,490 Because at what point in time will it be to where we, we should have be using it? 1050 01:57:11,510 --> 01:57:14,550 If it is a liability, you will set word this evening. 1051 01:57:14,550 --> 01:57:32,670 If it's a liability, at one point at what point in time, do we actually, you know, stock traffic from going over it, and can it be sustained on tiny to monthly, you talk about it monthly till 202426. That is alarming to me. So can you explain that? 1052 01:57:32,970 --> 01:57:43,730 Sure. So this efficiency rating takes in a lot of factors. One is the structural integrity and a big portion of it is the geometric of the bridge. 1053 01:57:44,550 --> 01:57:50,910 This bridge, if it was structurally sound, would only get a sufficiency radio about a 60, 1054 01:57:51,070 --> 01:57:56,490 yet it's most because it's such a narrow bridge and it doesn't meet the safety factors 1055 01:57:56,490 --> 01:58:04,130 for guardrails and the geometric on the bridge. Because it had a sufficiency rating of 2 was alarming 1056 01:58:04,130 --> 01:58:11,990 because that meant the structural integrity of it was almost gone. But now when we put the 1057 01:58:11,990 --> 01:58:17,810 the false work underneath and that was done with an engineer and inspection of an engineer 1058 01:58:17,810 --> 01:58:24,450 and all this false work is inspected by engineers all the time and the bridge is safe. 1059 01:58:25,290 --> 01:58:34,670 But when we did do the false work, it shoved it up to a 57 and it's crap back down to a 37 1060 01:58:34,670 --> 01:58:41,050 and for reasons, you know, they have the state structural engineer comes out and we shut down 1061 01:58:41,050 --> 01:58:45,810 traffic and they get lifts out there and they go over the bridge and they look at it. And 1062 01:58:45,810 --> 01:58:53,510 it, like I said, it has more to do with the geometric than just the instructional integrity on it. 1063 01:58:53,670 --> 01:58:58,210 But there is no weight limit on the bridge right now. I only fear with this bridge right now 1064 01:58:58,210 --> 01:59:03,450 as if it caught fire. You'd want to get off of it because it's all timber right now. 1065 01:59:03,910 --> 01:59:10,530 But other than that, it's safe. Is there a plan for the weight limit to moving forward knowing that 1066 01:59:10,530 --> 01:59:11,570 We're at a 57. 1067 01:59:14,230 --> 01:59:27,370 Well, right now there's nothing wrong with this bridge going to be, it's not going to be falling down. It's structurally sound. I mean, this false work that we put here that's on the screen right now that was because we were getting excessive deflections. 1068 01:59:27,870 --> 01:59:34,250 And a lot of it was due to the pavement on the road surface and we went out there and we paved the road surface. 1069 01:59:34,250 --> 01:59:42,490 This bridge is caught fire several times, sparks get down into the asphalt in between the cracks and there's a wood deck. 1070 01:59:42,710 --> 01:59:44,450 You can see the wood deck in this picture. 1071 01:59:45,510 --> 01:59:52,430 There's actually a concrete slab and then there's wood below it and that wood catches fire every now and then. 1072 01:59:53,130 --> 01:59:56,310 And our fire department keeps going out there and putting it out. 1073 01:59:57,710 --> 01:59:58,510 Like they're supposed to do. 1074 01:59:58,510 --> 01:59:59,430 So... 1075 02:00:03,600 --> 02:00:21,600 I don't want to say it's unsafe. I mean, it's been this way for years. I remember growing up on this bridge and writing my bicycle across it and you took your hands in your life in your hands with a bicycle out there because it's not very friendly for pedestrians. 1076 02:00:23,240 --> 02:00:27,060 So I thank you for saying that it's safe because it's a swallow that you told me that the public 1077 02:00:27,060 --> 02:00:31,400 was a public safety issue. So it was a alarming saying if it went from a three to now to a 1078 02:00:31,400 --> 02:00:37,220 30 of a hundred. So it's sounding better right now. So how often do the inspectors or the 1079 02:00:37,220 --> 02:00:43,620 engineers come out to review it? Do they come on a monthly basis? You know, I am so concerned 1080 02:00:44,400 --> 02:00:50,960 and we have public works crews down there inspecting it monthly, but our engineers probably look at 1081 02:00:50,960 --> 02:00:53,820 but two, three times a year. 1082 02:00:54,160 --> 02:00:57,100 Is that sufficient, or should we be having them come out a little more often? 1083 02:00:57,140 --> 02:00:59,960 No, you're plenty good. You're plenty good. 1084 02:01:00,340 --> 02:01:05,740 There's so much redundancy in the false work that we have underneath there. 1085 02:01:07,300 --> 02:01:11,560 Yeah, you could have several columns of wedges fall out. You'd still be fine. 1086 02:01:12,000 --> 02:01:13,660 But that we don't let that happen. 1087 02:01:15,060 --> 02:01:17,180 Yeah, public works was down there every month, 1088 02:01:17,480 --> 02:01:19,640 inspecting and tightening the wedges was needed. 1089 02:01:20,160 --> 02:01:28,000 One of the reasons it's a liability to us, it's because it's over the three main lines 1090 02:01:28,000 --> 02:01:30,600 of BNSF's, they're really hard. 1091 02:01:30,720 --> 02:01:34,860 So if this was Bridge was the fall down on their tracks, I think the estimated cost during 1092 02:01:34,860 --> 02:01:42,100 peak season is about 30 to 40 grand per hour that we would be build for holding up their 1093 02:01:42,100 --> 02:01:42,460 trains. 1094 02:01:43,100 --> 02:01:49,380 So this is a bridge we have a license to go over their facility if it was the fall down 1095 02:01:49,380 --> 02:01:54,860 their facility would be our liability. And that's the reason it's a liability. I mean, there's 1096 02:01:54,860 --> 02:01:59,060 there's many liabilities out there, but that's for the main liability. We just can't leave the 1097 02:01:59,060 --> 02:02:06,990 bridge up after it after we get the new bridge built. Thank you. There are I have a couple of questions. 1098 02:02:07,910 --> 02:02:15,190 Sure. Go ahead. Go ahead. I'll come tomorrow. So you mentioned the 22 month delay for the noise element 1099 02:02:16,350 --> 02:02:21,810 for the park crossing the classification park. 1100 02:02:22,510 --> 02:02:27,330 So should we have concerns crossing the river regarding wetlifts? 1101 02:02:29,460 --> 02:02:33,680 So our big issue on the Mojave River was not, 1102 02:02:33,700 --> 02:02:37,560 it was the environmental issue and it did hold us up a bit. 1103 02:02:37,960 --> 02:02:39,600 But it wasn't on the wetlands. 1104 02:02:41,200 --> 02:02:44,080 There is no wetlands on the Mojave River Bridge. 1105 02:02:44,080 --> 02:02:53,380 but there was a lot of issues over with a colleague, a trash scatter, an old dump that was on the 1106 02:02:53,380 --> 02:03:00,920 east side of Erwin Road from Jack's Cafe. And Jack's Cafe was right there up against Buzzard Rock 1107 02:03:00,920 --> 02:03:07,460 and it's the one that the water tanks on the hill there. So there was a lot of argument. We went through 1108 02:03:08,240 --> 02:03:12,420 multiple reviews. I think we were at seven or eight in Mingga, I can't remember, but I think it was like 1109 02:03:12,420 --> 02:03:18,600 our seven, the very review, finally of the same stuff that we finally were able to get the clearance 1110 02:03:18,600 --> 02:03:24,880 on the environmental. And that came to an agreement that we're going to have inspectors out there 1111 02:03:24,880 --> 02:03:27,540 during construction to sit through the trash gather. 1112 02:03:32,690 --> 02:03:35,150 And for a when it might be watching for 1113 02:03:35,150 --> 02:03:40,250 the first time that we've been on this for a long time, I might even take it back to before 2012. 1114 02:03:40,250 --> 02:03:46,470 Well, if you can explain to the public how we came to chose the choose of a case. 1115 02:03:48,070 --> 02:03:49,350 That's the never-win question. 1116 02:03:50,150 --> 02:03:53,970 Okay, yeah, there's a lot of, this is the final alignment that was chosen. 1117 02:03:54,330 --> 02:03:55,850 We had several alignments. 1118 02:03:55,970 --> 02:04:01,490 I don't have those up where you can see them, but we had an alignment that went out here and 1119 02:04:01,490 --> 02:04:07,010 straight across the Mojave River to Erwin Road, connecting with Radio Road. 1120 02:04:07,010 --> 02:04:08,090 That was another alignment. 1121 02:04:08,090 --> 02:04:12,730 We had barster road extending and then coming back around. 1122 02:04:14,090 --> 02:04:22,050 This alignment that we came up with by far is the most cost effective way. 1123 02:04:22,230 --> 02:04:26,030 I mean, the project going down barster road and across the river, 1124 02:04:26,110 --> 02:04:31,090 it wasn't the cost of the building that we had to buy, it wasn't the cost of. 1125 02:04:31,690 --> 02:04:36,250 It was the cost of getting over the railroad tracks and the river at that location. 1126 02:04:36,970 --> 02:04:43,610 that added over a hundred million dollars to the project. And we just could not do it. 1127 02:04:44,090 --> 02:04:48,950 This at the time when we did the study was only a thirty million dollar option versus over a hundred. 1128 02:04:49,090 --> 02:04:52,210 It was like a hundred and thirty million to go down Barsal Road. 1129 02:04:54,210 --> 02:05:00,310 The other alignment going straight out here, the river is wider. If you can notice where the bridge is now, 1130 02:05:00,310 --> 02:05:06,290 It's protected by buzzer rock and it keeps the channel and that's one of the reasons 1131 02:05:06,290 --> 02:05:10,630 there's an overflow bridge is that the water can't fit through that narrow channel and 1132 02:05:10,630 --> 02:05:17,190 so it has to overflow around cross first avenue and then on through this other bridge. 1133 02:05:17,790 --> 02:05:25,250 So this is the most economical crossing of the Mojave river because of the flow is narrowed right there. 1134 02:05:25,250 --> 02:05:31,950 If we were to put the bridge in front of Bussert Rock, it would be, you're looking at $30, $40, 1135 02:05:32,010 --> 02:05:39,270 $50 million more because it's all based on the span of the bridge. So this was the most economical 1136 02:05:39,270 --> 02:05:46,070 place to cross here for the Mojave River and this was the most economical place to cross at the railyard. 1137 02:05:46,530 --> 02:05:52,790 So those two combinations plus with the Harvey House, we didn't want to lose the connection to the 1138 02:05:53,550 --> 02:05:55,810 in the two streets, crooks, and river side. 1139 02:05:56,730 --> 02:05:58,730 This is kind of the alignment that we went through 1140 02:05:58,730 --> 02:06:01,950 probably 10 different alignments, different configurations. 1141 02:06:02,550 --> 02:06:06,810 On this one here we had probably three or four different configurations on this 1142 02:06:06,810 --> 02:06:08,250 when we settled on this one. 1143 02:06:08,490 --> 02:06:13,390 And that was all done through a VA study and a lot of the stuff 1144 02:06:13,390 --> 02:06:16,690 to mingle participated and going down to local assistance 1145 02:06:16,690 --> 02:06:18,450 and working through a lot of this stuff. 1146 02:06:19,810 --> 02:06:22,770 But that's kind of a nutshell why we ended up with this 1147 02:06:22,770 --> 02:06:29,870 alignment here. Thank you, they just go so far back. Thank you to update that. So thank you very much. That's all there. 1148 02:06:30,790 --> 02:06:31,870 Thank you. Thank you. 1149 02:06:32,150 --> 02:06:40,470 The language I'd like to add anything to to I have number five as we transition in item number six. 1150 02:06:40,730 --> 02:06:43,270 Then we'll come back and do the traffic report. 1151 02:06:43,430 --> 02:06:49,770 I'd like to reinstate what Brett says. The liability is really leaving the existing bridge there. 1152 02:06:49,770 --> 02:06:55,100 There's a lot of maintenance and upkeep that would cause a light bulb to the city if 1153 02:06:56,450 --> 02:07:02,310 If the bridge was to remain because it was discussion about making it a pedestrian bridge and everything 1154 02:07:02,310 --> 02:07:04,170 But it's a really costly 1155 02:07:04,730 --> 02:07:07,720 expenditure if if that would take place 1156 02:07:09,150 --> 02:07:14,190 And like Brad said there was about five different designs just with our current 1157 02:07:15,370 --> 02:07:17,190 Consultant to do 1158 02:07:17,190 --> 02:07:20,990 uh, pick out the design. Uh, that's about it. Okay. 1159 02:07:22,350 --> 02:07:22,370 Okay. 1160 02:07:22,370 --> 02:07:24,130 I'll just make her if I may ask a question. 1161 02:07:24,310 --> 02:07:24,710 Go ahead. 1162 02:07:25,090 --> 02:07:25,590 That's a woman. 1163 02:07:25,890 --> 02:07:26,070 Bruce. 1164 02:07:26,510 --> 02:07:27,470 Thank you. 1165 02:07:28,130 --> 02:07:29,810 Um, Mr. Merrill. 1166 02:07:30,310 --> 02:07:35,870 So is the elevation of the new bridge a little bit higher than the existing bridge? 1167 02:07:37,780 --> 02:07:42,040 It, uh, well, the new bridge won't have the trust system on it. 1168 02:07:42,320 --> 02:07:45,580 So, but the deck where you're traveling is about at the same height. 1169 02:07:45,580 --> 02:07:49,020 It might be a little bit higher because it is a box cutter. 1170 02:07:49,740 --> 02:07:52,120 But you know, I've never really studied it that much, 1171 02:07:52,400 --> 02:07:56,100 but it will probably be, it'll look like it's about the same height. 1172 02:07:56,820 --> 02:08:01,980 Okay, look, I like the softer curve going over the bridge. 1173 02:08:02,560 --> 02:08:09,880 And if I can add, if I recall in one of the open house 1174 02:08:09,880 --> 02:08:12,840 of the study sessions that they had on the bridge 1175 02:08:12,840 --> 02:08:18,200 and they discussed going over where you were talking about going to west of buzzard rock 1176 02:08:18,200 --> 02:08:26,080 and coming in on borderland road. If I'm not mistaken, they said that only part of a part of 1177 02:08:26,080 --> 02:08:32,000 the bridge then would be funded. We were funding for and the remainder would have to come out of the 1178 02:08:32,000 --> 02:08:38,620 city, which again, as you were saying, was 30 to 50 million at that time, and that was just 1179 02:08:38,620 --> 02:08:49,460 just not very realistic. The span to go over the river was massive and so that didn't make any sense. 1180 02:08:49,660 --> 02:09:00,700 Yeah, the way the funding source looks at this is that they look at the shortest distance that you cross that object or that river that train track and anything beyond that you have to pay for. 1181 02:09:00,760 --> 02:09:04,620 Correct. I do remember that coming up at one of those meetings. 1182 02:09:04,620 --> 02:09:33,940 So, okay, no, no, I was just curious on the elevation because I do remember at one of the meetings that when Hill side like the apartments that are right there, they were concerned about maybe Claire, but that was also also a dress about I believe some kind of protective shields just in case there wasn't a glare from any headlights coming over the bridge and going into their properties. 1183 02:09:33,940 --> 02:09:37,640 but I think that was addressed and never became an issue. 1184 02:09:38,480 --> 02:09:40,120 So that was my only comment. 1185 02:09:41,380 --> 02:09:43,460 It's going to be exciting when we get started on that. 1186 02:09:43,480 --> 02:09:45,220 Yes, this will be very exciting. 1187 02:09:45,960 --> 02:09:50,620 And if I'm not mistaken though, what's in the first phase actually going to be the smaller, 1188 02:09:50,640 --> 02:09:58,640 the smaller bridge there, and then the actually second phase was going to be the actual bridge over the track. 1189 02:09:58,640 --> 02:10:04,540 or was that a it seems like I thought that that was going to be the first part and then the 1190 02:10:04,540 --> 02:10:10,800 second part was actually going to be the bridge over the tracks. Now the first phase would 1191 02:10:10,800 --> 02:10:15,820 build two apartments on each side and put the bridge over the tracks and then once that was built 1192 02:10:15,820 --> 02:10:21,480 then then we would tear down the old bridge and then go to the next phase. Right and yeah that next phase 1193 02:10:21,480 --> 02:10:27,340 would start somewhere in here actually right here this this is the second phase here and we're trying 1194 02:10:27,340 --> 02:10:29,520 to get these two combined into one project, 1195 02:10:29,620 --> 02:10:31,540 because you can't really build one without the other. 1196 02:10:31,700 --> 02:10:32,760 Correct. Correct. 1197 02:10:33,560 --> 02:10:37,160 Okay, that was my only questions. Thank you. 1198 02:10:38,420 --> 02:10:39,860 Thank you. Thank you. 1199 02:10:40,100 --> 02:10:43,060 Councilwoman Cruz as well as Councilman Salah. 1200 02:10:43,420 --> 02:10:44,760 If there's nothing else, 1201 02:10:46,380 --> 02:10:48,360 I'm going to go ahead and go ahead and add 1202 02:10:48,360 --> 02:10:50,080 to the Active Transportation Program 1203 02:10:50,080 --> 02:10:53,400 that ATP presentation to make up. 1204 02:10:55,790 --> 02:10:58,910 Mayor, did you want to go back to your financial report? 1205 02:11:00,150 --> 02:11:05,210 You know, since we're already on the track, we're going to do six, they will come back to 1206 02:11:05,210 --> 02:11:06,550 for you. 1207 02:11:06,550 --> 02:11:06,570 Okay. 1208 02:11:10,460 --> 02:11:10,840 Spare with me. 1209 02:11:10,920 --> 02:11:13,820 I've got to share my screen just like every else. 1210 02:11:19,550 --> 02:11:21,530 Are you going to see in a PowerPoint or are you seeing icons? 1211 02:11:22,250 --> 02:11:26,230 I guess the whole bunch of senior Minion, or there we go. 1212 02:11:27,230 --> 02:11:28,610 Is there? 1213 02:11:28,930 --> 02:11:29,270 All right. 1214 02:11:30,050 --> 02:11:35,190 So, thank you, Mayor Council members and staff and public, tonight I am pleased to inform 1215 02:11:35,190 --> 02:11:42,030 that the city received an email. No saying that we will be awarded a grant that we applied for 1216 02:11:42,030 --> 02:11:51,750 for $6.9 million. Congratulations. Yes, very excited. Congratulations. Yeah. The city will be 1217 02:11:51,750 --> 02:11:57,930 responsible for our local match about $496,000 dollars, but that will come from our 1218 02:11:57,930 --> 02:12:03,790 measure I or SB1 funds to me our match. 1219 02:12:04,670 --> 02:12:07,330 This grant helps the city achieve goals, 1220 02:12:07,870 --> 02:12:09,550 not only of active transportation, 1221 02:12:10,070 --> 02:12:13,490 but further addresses complete streets requirements, 1222 02:12:14,390 --> 02:12:17,170 a healthier bar still and also reducing accidents, 1223 02:12:17,390 --> 02:12:21,990 which is a big emphasis right now in all the meetings I tend. 1224 02:12:23,090 --> 02:12:27,110 In cycle one, we were actually awarded a grant, 1225 02:12:27,110 --> 02:12:30,990 And we made a plan for our active transportation plan. 1226 02:12:31,470 --> 02:12:38,010 That plan was actually used to get a word of this grant of cycle five. 1227 02:12:39,150 --> 02:12:44,730 And what I'm going to do tonight is kind of give you a brief overcome of what active transportation is. 1228 02:12:45,450 --> 02:12:47,470 And the grant that we're going to be awarded. 1229 02:12:50,060 --> 02:12:58,160 So, the same vision was to make see vibrant where people want to walk by school and do 1230 02:12:58,160 --> 02:13:02,900 alternate methods of transportation and spend more time in the areas. 1231 02:13:03,620 --> 02:13:09,240 Make it safer for the children and parents to schools, shops, restaurants and other 1232 02:13:09,240 --> 02:13:10,680 destinations here in Barsdale. 1233 02:13:13,840 --> 02:13:16,620 The goals were primary folks on safety. 1234 02:13:16,620 --> 02:13:24,480 We want to make sure that there was no accidents that we enhanced all the traffic elements that we can to make 1235 02:13:24,480 --> 02:13:28,380 pedestrian and bicycle easier in bar still and safer. 1236 02:13:28,860 --> 02:13:34,540 We want to look at the connectivity and access points in this throughout the city where people 1237 02:13:34,540 --> 02:13:41,600 coming and where people going. We definitely want to increase the health in bar still and the quality in 1238 02:13:41,600 --> 02:13:49,360 So whether you're older, young, no matter what race you are, or age, you would have the same 1239 02:13:49,360 --> 02:13:49,980 aspects. 1240 02:13:52,420 --> 02:13:58,240 We wanted to create something that we can keep up and use forever. And of course, 1241 02:13:58,300 --> 02:14:02,960 like I said before, we want people to stand more so little bit longer and enjoy the areas. 1242 02:14:03,140 --> 02:14:08,720 So if you can make people stay in the downtown area, walking there or bicycling, 1243 02:14:09,740 --> 02:14:14,580 There's reports that prove that the economic development increases. 1244 02:14:17,260 --> 02:14:20,960 So one part of the aspect was that we talked to a lot of people in Barcelona. 1245 02:14:21,220 --> 02:14:25,220 We found out where they started from and where were they going and they created this map. 1246 02:14:28,800 --> 02:14:33,720 Through this we had public meetings and surveys and also we went out to the events. 1247 02:14:34,120 --> 02:14:35,300 So we actually went out to the people. 1248 02:14:35,460 --> 02:14:36,360 We went to the schools. 1249 02:14:36,540 --> 02:14:41,580 We went out to this is the Main Street car show that we went to. 1250 02:14:41,580 --> 02:14:46,880 We actually set up demonstration of tracks and curb extensions, 1251 02:14:50,200 --> 02:14:51,040 and what happened is, 1252 02:14:51,080 --> 02:14:55,200 through all of the studies, it came out with a given us a report of where people were 1253 02:14:55,200 --> 02:14:59,500 walking or where some of the corridors should be for bicycles and pedestrians. 1254 02:15:01,680 --> 02:15:25,520 So on cycle five, we've really focused on these following roads. There were mainly safe routes to schools. So was armory road, barster road, florist street, matera road, bound view, burial drive, and rimrock. And the next slides will show you kind of what we're talking about in those areas. 1255 02:15:26,660 --> 02:15:47,240 So in Army row, we're concentrating on, this is by the junior high, we're going to upgrade all the crosswalks to the more visible ladder type, the ones around the school be all, the one over there in the residential area will be white, but we're also going to put speed limit science so we can lower down the speeds. 1256 02:15:47,240 --> 02:15:58,160 We're also going to redo all the science and make sure that people know that there's pedestrians or students much cross. 1257 02:16:02,410 --> 02:16:15,150 On our rear and Higgins, we've had a lot of requests and lot of concerns from the parents that there was no controls for Higgins and people were getting close to the end of the students. 1258 02:16:15,150 --> 02:16:20,770 So, what we're proposing is actually to make the crosswalk shorter by doing a ball 1259 02:16:20,770 --> 02:16:27,390 belt, which is, if you see my arrows right here, or painted, but painted they still 1260 02:16:27,390 --> 02:16:28,050 drive through. 1261 02:16:28,410 --> 02:16:32,270 When you actually construct it, it actually makes the crosswalk shorter, and it makes 1262 02:16:32,270 --> 02:16:32,750 it safer. 1263 02:16:33,470 --> 02:16:40,070 One of the other elements is this is an actual activated flashing beacon, so as soon as you 1264 02:16:40,070 --> 02:16:46,450 click on that. It flashes like this and works the drivers that there are somebody across in 1265 02:16:46,450 --> 02:16:51,450 the street. It only is flashing when somebody activates the button. 1266 02:16:55,060 --> 02:16:56,580 On Barsco Road we want to 1267 02:16:56,580 --> 02:17:04,200 make it a consistent pathway from downtown all the way up to Virginia way and also address 1268 02:17:04,200 --> 02:17:10,620 Remrock. We want to make sure that the crosswalks are visible and actually show a corridor so 1269 02:17:10,620 --> 02:17:15,180 When you're walking, you know that you're on a walking corridor, and we'll be addressing 1270 02:17:15,180 --> 02:17:18,420 all the curb ramps, making sure it's ADA compliant. 1271 02:17:21,040 --> 02:17:24,160 On floor history, we want to make the passing shorter. 1272 02:17:24,440 --> 02:17:28,960 Again, we're going to make a bulb out and also put the flashing lights so that the students 1273 02:17:28,960 --> 02:17:35,980 go into the defined art school now has a safer way to get across and that they're alerted 1274 02:17:35,980 --> 02:17:38,240 that they're suddenly crossing the road. 1275 02:17:39,140 --> 02:17:56,640 And of course, like on floor history and all the way to the high school, again, we're going to make sure that all the crosswalks are repainted with the safety or the most current crosswalks, standards, and make it really define pedestrian corridor. 1276 02:17:56,640 --> 02:18:06,280 On my chair of school, this has been one of our biggest requests, is addressing the kids crossing 1277 02:18:06,280 --> 02:18:12,800 across not my chair. And what we're proposing there is what's called a hot system or like 1278 02:18:12,800 --> 02:18:18,020 hot system. This is actually a traffic signal light that's only activated when the students 1279 02:18:18,020 --> 02:18:25,060 press the button. And across you push the button, it goes yellow and then goes red. The students can 1280 02:18:25,060 --> 02:18:30,780 process but it only activates the single light when somebody pushes the button so it doesn't 1281 02:18:30,780 --> 02:18:36,240 impact the traffic the rest of the time when the students are not using that or or off throughout 1282 02:18:36,240 --> 02:18:44,020 the day. Again we're looking at ball bouts to make the crossing shorter. We're enhancing all the 1283 02:18:44,020 --> 02:18:51,060 signs we're playing crosswalks in to just make it another corridor safe for the kids and the parents. 1284 02:18:54,300 --> 02:18:58,700 Now, in view, it's going to be a corridor all the way from 1285 02:18:59,640 --> 02:19:01,860 basically Florida all the way down to Main Street. 1286 02:19:02,020 --> 02:19:04,760 Again, we're going to make sure that all the crosswalks are indicated. 1287 02:19:05,700 --> 02:19:07,740 Speed signs are put by the high school. 1288 02:19:08,240 --> 02:19:13,260 Hock system is actually being proposed right there on Mount Vernon and 1289 02:19:13,260 --> 02:19:15,380 in the high school where the students cross. 1290 02:19:15,920 --> 02:19:18,760 And that would also address the STEM school, 1291 02:19:18,760 --> 02:19:23,940 a county where they can cross safely through a traffic single type system. 1292 02:19:23,940 --> 02:19:23,940 You 1293 02:19:28,320 --> 02:19:39,900 know, drive. It's a part of the corridor again. We're talking about bulb outs and redoing the crosswalks with speed limit signs, 1294 02:19:40,060 --> 02:19:41,720 slorn down people by the school. 1295 02:19:45,610 --> 02:19:48,990 And again, right there by the school, it's Carson and across from 1296 02:19:49,710 --> 02:19:54,650 Tamasko, there's going to be a bulb out to make the crossing shorter and also to slow down the traffic. 1297 02:19:57,560 --> 02:20:06,560 Real Drive, we're talking about doing the speed limits, the signs, and then all the ramps and crosswalks. 1298 02:20:07,580 --> 02:20:16,720 And then Rim Rock Road is being one of my biggest complaints and one of the works I've been working on with grants for a while is the students cross Rim Rock Road. 1299 02:20:16,720 --> 02:20:22,760 They are very hard to see, even the crossing guard is very hard to see one that people are driving there. 1300 02:20:24,000 --> 02:20:31,780 And the speeds are quite high, even though we've tried to do many measures to slow them down, they actually drive pretty fast there. 1301 02:20:32,120 --> 02:20:39,340 So the Hawksystem there is a preventive measure to try to keep the students and parents and guardians safe. 1302 02:20:41,390 --> 02:20:46,730 Mary, it was the same thing, we're just making sure we have all the crosswalks and making it a pedestrian corridor. 1303 02:20:50,950 --> 02:20:53,370 But through this grant, we're also talking about bicycle improvements. 1304 02:20:53,570 --> 02:20:57,290 We want to increase the students' rights to schools. 1305 02:20:57,690 --> 02:21:02,330 And then we also have a lot of citizens that are right bikes, but they say they don't feel comfortable. 1306 02:21:02,930 --> 02:21:07,490 So we're trying to address that through the different type of pathways. 1307 02:21:07,490 --> 02:21:17,790 So barcial right now and this proposal we're going to have class 2 and class 3 type 1308 02:21:17,790 --> 02:21:19,390 bicycle lanes. 1309 02:21:20,430 --> 02:21:24,310 A class 1 is completely dedicated where it's off the side of the road and it's dedicated 1310 02:21:24,310 --> 02:21:26,570 for a bicycle pass. 1311 02:21:27,130 --> 02:21:34,850 I type 2 is kind of a dedicated bike lane, it's painted on the side but it's still sharing 1312 02:21:34,850 --> 02:21:42,150 the roadway. Type 3 actually shares the roadway with the vehicles but it's indicated by the 1313 02:21:42,150 --> 02:21:46,370 share sign and then we're going to have to educate the citizens about what's the sign 1314 02:21:46,370 --> 02:21:53,090 mean because it's kind of a new sign so we're going to do an educational process and it's part 1315 02:21:53,090 --> 02:22:00,230 of the grant and then plus 4 in the future we're looking at doing a class 4 but that is really a 1316 02:22:00,230 --> 02:22:06,890 operation, where it's either by a median or put in billboards in, where the cars are separated 1317 02:22:06,890 --> 02:22:09,010 from any of the bicyclists. 1318 02:22:10,490 --> 02:22:13,470 And then finally, we're also looking at bike facilities. 1319 02:22:14,290 --> 02:22:18,770 So you might have seen these around town, they're actually bike racks. 1320 02:22:19,150 --> 02:22:23,810 We just had a grant for these, and we got it to be a little bit more artistic. 1321 02:22:24,350 --> 02:22:27,670 So there's eight signs on Route 66. 1322 02:22:27,670 --> 02:22:36,050 So each of our science represents a state and with of course with our Route 66 concepts. 1323 02:22:37,410 --> 02:22:42,350 But we also installed some bike repair stations so when the people are riding through Barstone, 1324 02:22:42,910 --> 02:22:45,070 they have a place to repair their their bicycles. 1325 02:22:46,990 --> 02:22:50,990 And then if a lot of people don't know this but even at Walmart when our development comes in 1326 02:22:50,990 --> 02:22:55,870 and we're asking them to put facilities to enhance the bicycle riding. 1327 02:22:56,430 --> 02:22:59,230 So, warmer actually has some bike lockers. 1328 02:23:00,250 --> 02:23:04,630 Those are bike lockers. You can actually put your bike in them and lock it up while you're going shopping. 1329 02:23:05,930 --> 02:23:06,930 I didn't know that. 1330 02:23:07,490 --> 02:23:16,790 In the future, the trend is being able to rent bikes or scooters and to encourage the more active life. 1331 02:23:17,150 --> 02:23:23,990 So, we're looking at the big picture and then taking a little bice to improve the city to enhance all the elements. 1332 02:23:25,410 --> 02:23:35,990 That concludes my presentation about the grant that we're about to receive if I'm here to answer in questions and answer in questions you may have. 1333 02:23:35,990 --> 02:23:47,550 Well first, I just want to say congratulations to our staff and congratulations to you, Chris, 1334 02:23:47,550 --> 02:23:54,630 letter from the 6.9 main on a grant for this specific undertaking. 1335 02:23:57,030 --> 02:23:58,050 I just want to acknowledge 1336 02:23:58,050 --> 02:24:05,570 a couple of things that there's been some perhaps misunderstandings on how the grants work 1337 02:24:05,570 --> 02:24:13,630 in quote reimbursement. And I'll just use this explanation on the on the on the private sector site. 1338 02:24:13,630 --> 02:24:24,290 You know, as a contractor, you know, we are actually always writing bids, and then we get the bids, and we re-a Congratulations. 1339 02:24:25,690 --> 02:24:41,130 And then we went for the money to, to basically get reimbursed in the cost that we acquire from staffing, and so on and sometimes it will take us 30 days, 40 days, 45 days, 60 days. 1340 02:24:41,130 --> 02:24:48,070 of the 90 days for the money that's coming in. And then now on the municipal site, it's basically 1341 02:24:48,070 --> 02:24:54,930 called reimbursements, but on the private sector, it's called the cost of doing business. 1342 02:24:56,130 --> 02:25:02,410 And so it's refreshing to learn that especially here specifically in the city of Barcelona, 1343 02:25:02,410 --> 02:25:17,210 that are grant lighting staff, as well as our growing barcial staff understands that basic principle of doing business. 1344 02:25:18,090 --> 02:25:23,090 And so when you hear me say often, the city of barcial is open for business, we really are. 1345 02:25:23,090 --> 02:25:38,110 And I would definitely encourage that we continue to acquire these, quote, grants, but in the private sector, called Beds, and sometimes, you know, we'll get awarded and we just simply can't afford to take it. 1346 02:25:38,130 --> 02:25:39,670 And so we passed it, we passed it up. 1347 02:25:39,990 --> 02:25:46,030 But it does not prevent us from a grocery going after these, these, these Beds on the private sector. 1348 02:25:46,030 --> 02:25:52,870 And it doesn't prevent progress of cities going after the grants on the missiles on the 1349 02:25:52,870 --> 02:25:53,510 missile site. 1350 02:25:54,310 --> 02:25:59,290 So, I understand, thanks to you, thank you, and I'm going to speak on the missile site. 1351 02:25:59,910 --> 02:26:04,810 I've been blessed with the ability to visit lots of progress in cities, and it's called 1352 02:26:04,810 --> 02:26:10,230 California Distinguished Cities, and they have a full grant-writing department, and they accept 1353 02:26:10,230 --> 02:26:17,810 about 75% of the grass that we see because, you know, oftentimes, they can't afford all of them, 1354 02:26:18,030 --> 02:26:22,810 but, you know, to hear that we're getting these grants into our CD, it's like a really good thing. 1355 02:26:23,050 --> 02:26:29,110 It's a really good thing, and I just want to say congratulations, congratulations, and congratulations, 1356 02:26:29,630 --> 02:26:34,470 and that's my commitment to this site 6.9 million dollars.

Yes, this is a grant to us, so we will have to go through a whole process if we have to 1407 02:30:33,200 --> 02:30:38,560 part of it is actually designing it, we're part of this money is goes to design, but we have to follow 1408 02:30:38,560 --> 02:30:45,620 the protocols, we have to go out to bid, we have to do interviews and the valuations of the 1409 02:30:45,620 --> 02:30:53,440 the consultants, submit it, get approval from account trans.

I call them 1520 02:40:11,120 --> 02:40:30,620 trials and tribulations. So we've been going through many trials and many tribulations. And I, and I just, what I want to assure the general public and the engaged citizens that we are committed to educate them and to inform them, the more important to work with anybody who may be going through some challenging times. 1521 02:40:30,620 --> 02:40:38,120 And at the same time, I'd be want to thank our vendor for being on top of a very 1522 02:40:38,120 --> 02:40:44,480 response period to notify those who are obligated to take care of obligations that they 1523 02:40:44,480 --> 02:40:46,400 voluntarily accept them. 1524 02:40:46,820 --> 02:40:58,080 So thank you for the reading Jessica and we will definitely take a look at every one of the 1525 02:40:58,080 --> 02:41:04,440 fair and put it decision, which is the best interest of everyone, and always what's best 1526 02:41:04,440 --> 02:41:06,540 from Marshal. Thank you. 1527 02:41:06,640 --> 02:41:08,460 Yes, sir. Thank you. 1528 02:41:09,140 --> 02:41:10,640 I had a number eight. 1529 02:41:11,540 --> 02:41:17,100 Mr. Mayor, before you came to the bottom of my number seven, then you did all the work we need. 1530 02:41:17,120 --> 02:41:20,120 That's right. We got to do a motion in that. Okay. That's right. That's right. 1531 02:41:20,300 --> 02:41:24,080 And before you take the motion, that's right. 1532 02:41:24,080 --> 02:41:27,540 That's right. And before you take the motion, that's right. 1533 02:41:27,540 --> 02:41:27,560 That's right. 1534 02:41:27,580 --> 02:41:28,060 That's right. 1535 02:41:29,940 --> 02:41:43,940 I would add that if we can pull item partial number 760 and have staff work with them on a plan. 1536 02:41:46,000 --> 02:41:58,040 And there was another item, item number, I believe it was item number 23 however, the item doesn't match the actual 1537 02:42:00,380 --> 02:42:10,880 names and I can't find it nowhere else on the property list. So if we can pull those two items and have staff, we look at those two items. 1538 02:42:12,120 --> 02:42:16,160 Excuse me, I need some clarification from Council. Was the public hearing open? 1539 02:42:17,480 --> 02:42:17,740 Yes. 1540 02:42:18,020 --> 02:42:18,260 Yes. 1541 02:42:18,780 --> 02:42:19,720 Thank you, Governor. 1542 02:42:19,800 --> 02:42:22,440 Let me finish a couple of points on that. 1543 02:42:23,300 --> 02:42:29,060 As noted, we are in the Zoom time under the pandemic rules as approved by the governor's executive orders. 1544 02:42:29,740 --> 02:42:32,900 As such, the city has been taking public comments by email. 1545 02:42:33,540 --> 02:42:36,600 Up until the close of the public hearing, the public hearing is still open. 1546 02:42:37,380 --> 02:42:38,080 We will close it. 1547 02:42:38,080 --> 02:42:41,620 The mayor will be closing shortly before moving to council deliberation. 1548 02:42:42,040 --> 02:42:50,040 At this time, I'll ask the city clerk or Ms. Ratzel to confirm that all emails received until this moment in time 1549 02:42:50,040 --> 02:42:55,540 have been provided to the city council and in particular to identify if any additional emails were 1550 02:42:55,540 --> 02:43:00,680 received beyond the four that were previously received and provided to the city council 1551 02:43:00,680 --> 02:43:03,520 and which are available from public review upon the quest. 1552 02:43:05,740 --> 02:43:09,380 That was a direct question to Christina Russell, staff. 1553 02:43:11,000 --> 02:43:16,420 Yeah, this is Christina Russell and we have not received any additional comments since the point 1554 02:43:16,420 --> 02:43:19,080 that I last contacted the council. 1555 02:43:20,180 --> 02:43:21,020 Thank you, Ms. Rodsell. 1556 02:43:21,160 --> 02:43:23,400 So that means that the list of public comments was 1557 02:43:23,400 --> 02:43:27,000 four a cent by email, the council has received those, 1558 02:43:27,020 --> 02:43:28,480 and has considered them. 1559 02:43:29,020 --> 02:43:31,820 The next step would be to close the public hearing, 1560 02:43:32,200 --> 02:43:34,840 and then to confirm with staff, 1561 02:43:35,200 --> 02:43:37,420 and I confess, I guess it'd be Mr. Tompkins, 1562 02:43:37,680 --> 02:43:40,120 if not, someone else, perhaps Ms. Reed, 1563 02:43:40,260 --> 02:43:42,020 to note that there is an updated final, 1564 02:43:42,240 --> 02:43:45,060 we list, I have to ask and properties were pulled off, 1565 02:43:45,060 --> 02:43:47,220 the lean list on the basis of labor and the information. 1566 02:43:47,960 --> 02:43:51,180 And I would ask staff to confirm which ones are being pulled off 1567 02:43:51,180 --> 02:43:52,820 before the council would deliver it. 1568 02:43:53,680 --> 02:43:56,760 I have a clarifying question if I may. 1569 02:43:56,920 --> 02:43:57,880 Yes, go ahead. 1570 02:43:58,080 --> 02:43:58,480 Thank you. 1571 02:43:59,020 --> 02:44:04,040 So the comments that we were that we received prior to the meeting. 1572 02:44:05,180 --> 02:44:09,620 So we will hopefully take those in consideration for these residents 1573 02:44:09,620 --> 02:44:13,580 that sent us requests to work with them. 1574 02:44:13,960 --> 02:44:14,200 Of course. 1575 02:44:14,200 --> 02:44:15,860 Yes, absolutely. 1576 02:44:16,060 --> 02:44:18,460 And Sandy, the motion of the tip. 1577 02:44:18,780 --> 02:44:19,780 That would be correct. 1578 02:44:19,980 --> 02:44:30,860 It'd be mentioned to your motion if you wanted to direct staff to further evaluate those properties of identifying them by number and pulling them off the lean list for that for the conversation we have. 1579 02:44:31,380 --> 02:44:33,020 And this is where I'll note to staff. 1580 02:44:33,900 --> 02:44:37,320 What were the, and I know we had three or four of them will pull off the list. 1581 02:44:38,200 --> 02:44:39,660 Those should provide this moment. 1582 02:44:39,880 --> 02:44:42,520 And then the mayor closed the year and then take out the deliberation. 1583 02:44:44,020 --> 02:44:52,680 Okay, so in the agenda packet, we had to refer to it as a preliminary lean list as of March 8. 1584 02:44:54,100 --> 02:44:59,960 Today, why we received a final lean list with those who paid him. 1585 02:45:00,000 --> 02:45:28,000 And if there are items on that list that you'd like to pull and provide your action to staff to, you know, work with them, that's, that's what I would need. So I heard councilman nobles say item number 760, but I need to clarify whether that was item 760 on the final lien list or the preliminary lien list that's in the packet. Does that make sense? 1586 02:45:28,000 --> 02:45:35,300 And I do have another clarifying question on that because we got that if I'm not mistaken that final leanless came late in the day. 1587 02:45:36,660 --> 02:45:45,000 And so is that the norm that we would get a revised list just short before the meeting? 1588 02:45:46,680 --> 02:45:50,080 Because you didn't have time to go through that. It's a long list. 1589 02:45:50,660 --> 02:45:57,280 It is fairly jibbable and the key that's worth noting in all last month's reading confirmed that I'm not in direct. 1590 02:45:57,840 --> 02:46:00,960 The final leave list is a subset of the original list. 1591 02:46:01,240 --> 02:46:07,080 No new properties are added, rather properties are taken off the list if people may claim it through today. 1592 02:46:07,680 --> 02:46:13,100 Students close out their accounts, providing that last opportunity to make a payment before it goes to the end. 1593 02:46:14,120 --> 02:46:14,820 Thank you. 1594 02:46:18,180 --> 02:46:21,860 And so it sounds like what staff might need to do, at least if not tonight, then the future 1595 02:46:21,860 --> 02:46:25,660 because you have a separate list that I identify exactly what would take an awful list. 1596 02:46:26,200 --> 02:46:29,040 Okay, yes. I can definitely make sure to provide that. 1597 02:46:31,320 --> 02:46:33,880 Although I do believe since this is the last, you know, 1598 02:46:35,880 --> 02:46:38,480 lean cycle that are bird text accounts. 1599 02:46:41,000 --> 02:46:46,200 Yeah, this all this, these lists were provided by them. So in the future, you know, it would be 1600 02:46:46,200 --> 02:46:53,760 city staff that would be providing these updated lists exclusive to the ones that 1601 02:46:53,760 --> 02:46:59,100 were removed. So now, let's go ahead. 1602 02:46:59,400 --> 02:47:05,000 Just for clarification, public, this is a list from bird tech. This money goes to 1603 02:47:05,000 --> 02:47:14,180 bird tech, not to the city. So it's to pay leans for bird tech itself. And so that was the, 1604 02:47:14,180 --> 02:47:21,120 list that they provided. What the Council may want to consider is in the final action, I think 1605 02:47:21,120 --> 02:47:27,060 Council member Noble identified some parcels. You can either give us numbers and we can cross-check 1606 02:47:27,860 --> 02:47:35,980 or give us the name, and maybe not publicly, but at least if you email the name so we can make sure that 1607 02:47:35,980 --> 02:47:41,140 if it's not on the final list, her, I mean if it hasn't been taken off of that final list, 1608 02:47:41,140 --> 02:47:48,260 So we go ahead and remove that for consideration in that way, the Council can still act 1609 02:47:48,260 --> 02:47:53,520 tonight, but this sure is the staff to make sure that those people that you wanted 1610 02:47:53,520 --> 02:47:56,000 looked at are actually looked at. 1611 02:47:56,520 --> 02:48:02,180 And I would recommend to think of if I'd recommend citing, so it may not be, I need probably 1612 02:48:02,180 --> 02:48:03,900 to have to be something cited publicly. 1613 02:48:04,060 --> 02:48:08,220 So I'd cite the APM, which is a constant number that does not change. 1614 02:48:08,220 --> 02:48:13,180 as opposed to the first column in the list, which seems to be depending on which list you're using. 1615 02:48:14,500 --> 02:48:16,900 Or the address would work too. 1616 02:48:20,180 --> 02:48:26,220 Just unfortunately, the four of them are addresses, not APNs in the letters. 1617 02:48:27,260 --> 02:48:32,060 I believe we can address the four letters that identified five properties. 1618 02:48:32,720 --> 02:48:37,740 It's very confusing having public session with that public comment. 1619 02:48:37,740 --> 02:48:40,960 So, council will know why believe you're making a motion. 1620 02:48:41,360 --> 02:48:44,860 You can just state that all of the five properties 1621 02:48:44,860 --> 02:48:46,400 identified before letters. 1622 02:48:47,400 --> 02:48:51,340 I think that would take care of it. 1623 02:48:52,880 --> 02:48:55,760 Yes, and Mary, if we can do that, 1624 02:48:55,960 --> 02:48:58,820 I would prefer to do that one for those four items, 1625 02:48:59,740 --> 02:49:03,860 that are in the public comments from the lane list. 1626 02:49:05,440 --> 02:49:07,420 Yes, I would concur. 1627 02:49:08,020 --> 02:49:17,420 This is just for information for the general public who may be watching, you know, the total lanes, and we've got to understand, you know, 1628 02:49:18,380 --> 02:49:27,660 you know, obviously it's identified by the partial number. It has a current past you, then has a 10% late fee, which is a 10% 1629 02:49:27,660 --> 02:49:34,960 It has a penalty, which is 18%, there's a administration fee of $45, there's a release lane 1630 02:49:34,960 --> 02:49:40,700 $20, processing fee of $10, and it has a current total. So right now we're looking at 1631 02:49:40,700 --> 02:49:49,080 lanes, a total of $647,000 and $1,000 and some change. And then when you go through this, 1632 02:49:49,080 --> 02:49:55,560 We have individuals who owe 2,000, 3,000, 4,000, 1633 02:49:55,820 --> 02:49:58,260 39,000, it goes on and on and on. 1634 02:49:58,500 --> 02:50:02,900 And so this has been a growing issue that's been going on for a long time. 1635 02:50:03,260 --> 02:50:08,140 So I would definitely encourage all the governors as well as the staff 1636 02:50:08,140 --> 02:50:15,080 that is in the position to move this forward to really take a close look at 1637 02:50:15,080 --> 02:50:22,100 all these lean because there are several pages of lanes and when you see individuals are 1638 02:50:22,100 --> 02:50:30,280 APN numbers that owe $39,000 in lean that definitely signifies that there's something 1639 02:50:30,280 --> 02:50:39,760 going on and then at the same time you look at links that are of $200 or $120 and so we're 1640 02:50:39,760 --> 02:50:45,020 about, you know, two different perspectives.

My question is, what is the policy 1699 02:53:54,520 --> 02:54:04,060 that we're tech or that we have implemented on when do we designate an amount for a lean? And if we 1700 02:54:04,060 --> 02:54:11,000 do not have a policy, then we need to implement a policy for the city going forward. Why 1701 02:54:11,000 --> 02:54:16,860 earth would we be leaning somebody for one penny and by the time they add all the other costs 1702 02:54:16,860 --> 02:54:27,000 it's $75 for owning for owning one penny. So there's I don't see I don't see a reasonable 1703 02:54:27,000 --> 02:54:34,000 balance here. Why would it that one penny just be written off? Why would you go through all the 1704 02:54:34,000 --> 02:54:37,700 stance of doing a lean and all of this for one penny. 1705 02:54:38,360 --> 02:54:40,400 So I don't know if that's something that 1706 02:54:41,340 --> 02:54:46,000 that bird-tap can answer or is that part of our responsibility too. 1707 02:54:47,060 --> 02:54:53,040 I would like some information on that, but if we do not have a policy, 1708 02:54:53,520 --> 02:54:56,660 then I think we need to, as the city going forward, 1709 02:54:57,120 --> 02:55:01,540 taking care of our own billing, that we be sure that we implement or 1710 02:55:01,540 --> 02:55:08,540 need a policy on an amount before we decide before a lean is placed on a piece of property. 1711 02:55:10,240 --> 02:55:17,240 So I don't want to tell you that. In regards to any policy, I mean we go by the municipal code, 1712 02:55:17,960 --> 02:55:25,500 which outlines the various steps from when a count becomes delinquent, which is when it's passed 1713 02:55:25,500 --> 02:55:28,860 do, up through the lean process. 1714 02:55:30,960 --> 02:55:33,360 So there's no separate policy per se. 1715 02:55:33,600 --> 02:55:37,800 We just abide by what the municipal code says. 1716 02:55:38,460 --> 02:55:41,520 I think it's important to note that this 1717 02:55:41,520 --> 02:55:45,220 is kind of the last of Berthek accounts. 1718 02:55:45,220 --> 02:55:48,900 So we're trying to capture all of those remaining accounts. 1719 02:55:48,900 --> 02:55:51,100 No matter the dollar amount, it's just anything 1720 02:55:51,100 --> 02:55:52,880 that remains to link what with Berthek 1721 02:55:52,880 --> 02:55:54,500 through the end of when they were billing. 1722 02:55:54,500 --> 02:56:03,060 that's October 31st. So, yeah, the amounts or balances may be very minimal and I completely understand 1723 02:56:03,060 --> 02:56:11,860 your point about the cost, the lean processing and so on and so forth, being significantly 1724 02:56:11,860 --> 02:56:19,820 higher than what's actually due, but yeah, in our code it states that any account that remains 1725 02:56:19,820 --> 02:56:22,220 past due is the lean point. 1726 02:56:22,220 --> 02:56:23,720 of the price. 1727 02:56:24,020 --> 02:56:24,140 Correct. 1728 02:56:25,060 --> 02:56:25,080 Okay. 1729 02:56:26,680 --> 02:56:31,220 My question would be that if it's a penny, why aren't they paying the penny? 1730 02:56:31,700 --> 02:56:35,900 And if I'm not mistaken, Matthew, can you turn it on this? 1731 02:56:36,580 --> 02:56:41,320 If we settle in it, let's say it's only $5, would that be considered to give the public 1732 02:56:41,320 --> 02:56:48,840 funds if we were to just write off the penny that the $5, because we're talking 23, you know, 1733 02:56:48,840 --> 02:56:53,840 how much how many, you know, residents we have here in Burstow, and if everybody owned, you 1734 02:56:53,840 --> 02:57:00,720 know, $05, we could, you know, hurt ourselves in the long run. 1735 02:57:00,900 --> 02:57:04,620 Is it called, would it be considered a gift to public funds? 1736 02:57:04,920 --> 02:57:08,540 A couple of points, and would not be considered to give the public funds that the city 1737 02:57:08,540 --> 02:57:13,860 adopted policy, the delinquent accounts below a certain amount, say $5, we're not to 1738 02:57:13,860 --> 02:57:19,050 in the mean because there's a middle ground between sending it to the mean and writing it off. 1739 02:57:20,600 --> 02:57:24,600 Not sending accounts that are delivered in that amount to mean collection, but still for 1740 02:57:24,600 --> 02:57:29,340 student collection by other methods would not write off the debt, but would also not be 1741 02:57:29,340 --> 02:57:33,700 imposing a mean even if the city were to write off the debt. Writing off the debt that's 1742 02:57:34,820 --> 02:57:40,260 uncollectable or difficult to collect is not a gift to public funds because the city can't take 1743 02:57:40,260 --> 02:57:45,340 account the cost and current collection, as many of you are collecting the lead has some cost 1744 02:57:45,340 --> 02:57:50,160 and while it can be collected in the end, you can really collect through the lead process, 1745 02:57:50,440 --> 02:57:56,200 still takes time and staff time which is valuable and can be weighed against the small dollar deaths. 1746 02:57:56,720 --> 02:58:00,460 I think the key here on this lean list is to think from the typical lean list that the 1747 02:58:00,460 --> 02:58:06,980 council sees is as noted by this reader. This is vertex final list, so they throw at 1748 02:58:06,980 --> 02:58:10,620 with either of the penny against the against the system. 1749 02:58:11,280 --> 02:58:15,200 I would expect and would recommend that the council might look to a future agenda item 1750 02:58:15,200 --> 02:58:21,300 to assuming they're supporting at least two months of the council to have a policy that 1751 02:58:21,300 --> 02:58:25,300 developed for when the city would be looking to impose leans on the account's collection 1752 02:58:25,300 --> 02:58:30,760 by the admins over the city. Now collecting leans are not collecting these payments and doesn't 1753 02:58:30,760 --> 02:58:36,400 currently have a minimum debt that goes to lean policy. It might make sense for that to be 1754 02:58:36,400 --> 02:58:50,220 said if I counseled my builder maybe some more than one view on counsel, have that as an agenda item and then consider where where that policy would be set that also provides an opportunity for staff to show the rest of the collection process that's behind. 1755 02:58:50,760 --> 02:58:55,440 Here we see the lean process, but there's a fair amount of several other steps that are in the mix as well. 1756 02:58:55,560 --> 02:59:01,600 They're designed to get the one penny that's taken care of before it gets to graduate to the leanless level. 1757 02:59:02,400 --> 02:59:11,660 Well, let me say that this Matthew, you know, I concur what Mayor Prochim, a Rosa sin, whether 1758 02:59:11,660 --> 02:59:19,520 it's one penny, our five cents or five dollars or five thousand, and when we're talking 1759 02:59:19,520 --> 02:59:23,360 about best business practice, we're talking about best business practice, because I shared 1760 02:59:23,360 --> 02:59:27,800 at the open of this discussion to get to this lane list, that's a process. 1761 02:59:28,580 --> 02:59:34,280 And it's a process from being a current pastor, then you go to always late feeds, you've got 1762 02:59:34,280 --> 02:59:39,280 penalties, administration of fees, you have to feed on top of feed on top of feed before 1763 02:59:39,280 --> 02:59:40,660 it gets to a current total. 1764 02:59:42,040 --> 02:59:48,340 So what counsel women who's a sand, yeah, whether it be in the penny, yeah, that's a big 1765 02:59:48,340 --> 02:59:48,880 ordeal. 1766 02:59:49,540 --> 02:59:51,740 But at the same time, it's a process. 1767 02:59:51,740 --> 02:59:52,100 s. 1768 03:00:00,000 --> 03:00:15,280 To the letters and the reminders, it just goes on and on, so a penny turns into a hundred dollars, because on my side, this is called personal responsibility, I have failed for some reason to make this obligation, even it was a penny. 1769 03:00:16,000 --> 03:00:27,000 And so, birthday, there are business. I mean, there are business, and there, you know, and every penny matters, because I am a foreign believer if you take care of the pennies and the nickels, you have to worry about the dollars. 1770 03:00:27,000 --> 03:00:44,000 So, we have inherited this discussion and I'm this evening being mindful that Birchek is a business and they are out to collect every single penny to make sure not to worry about the nickel or the dollar. 1771 03:00:45,520 --> 03:00:48,100 And that's just best business practice. 1772 03:00:48,920 --> 03:00:51,760 So I can understand their discussion as well as the 1773 03:00:51,760 --> 03:00:55,900 similar argument about this particular subject matter. 1774 03:00:56,240 --> 03:00:58,840 And I can see it, you know, it's going to come before the 1775 03:00:58,840 --> 03:01:02,180 governors at the city, we're going to be in the same predicament. 1776 03:01:03,280 --> 03:01:06,820 And when Council of Mayor for 10 asks, 1777 03:01:07,060 --> 03:01:10,000 you know, about the the gift of public funds, that's a big go. 1778 03:01:10,020 --> 03:01:12,080 That's a big question. It's a very delicate question. 1779 03:01:12,080 --> 03:01:17,600 And thank you, Matthew, for your clarification at this point in time. 1780 03:01:18,000 --> 03:01:24,400 However, this is something that we're not there to really take a quick, take a thorough look at moving forward. 1781 03:01:24,540 --> 03:01:28,960 Since we now do the billing, we're going to make a situation that we're going to be in a collection, 1782 03:01:29,240 --> 03:01:38,080 and this is going to be on and on, and the question is, where do we decide what's in the best interest of Marshall, 1783 03:01:39,160 --> 03:01:45,560 opposed to what's in the best interest of maybe somebody who legitimately have fell 1784 03:01:45,560 --> 03:01:51,440 and fell behind for some great reason, because I can trust that Birch at also 1785 03:01:51,440 --> 03:01:57,360 considers the same practices that we would consider as a municipality. But more 1786 03:01:57,360 --> 03:02:03,020 importantly, as governors, we come from a mix of backgrounds and when it comes to 1787 03:02:03,020 --> 03:02:07,380 business, you take care of your pennies and your nickels, because the last thing 1788 03:02:07,380 --> 03:02:14,240 to do is worry about the dollars and that's just that's my opinion on this and I believe we have a 1789 03:02:14,240 --> 03:02:20,140 motion of Lord we have a second by myself you know we're having a discussion and if there's 1790 03:02:20,140 --> 03:02:26,860 continued discussion we can gain the discussion if not I'm going to call for the vote well I would 1791 03:02:26,860 --> 03:02:36,440 just like to clarify that what I'm what I'm referring to is that when for us going forward 1792 03:02:37,200 --> 03:02:40,600 Do we set a limit before we put a lean on something? 1793 03:02:40,780 --> 03:02:43,360 I'm not saying that's what we don't try to collect. 1794 03:02:43,920 --> 03:02:45,880 I'm just saying, do we set a limit? 1795 03:02:48,180 --> 03:02:52,640 Because, I mean, I'm sorry, just for just owing a penny. 1796 03:02:53,320 --> 03:02:56,080 However, however, they probably thought it's just a penny. 1797 03:02:56,620 --> 03:03:00,300 And had no idea that it was going to become $75. 1798 03:03:01,680 --> 03:03:12,260 And I think we can take in Google's and policy and bring it back to council, but I think the key here is is this is the closed out field. 1799 03:03:12,420 --> 03:03:20,020 You might look at that way for bird check and that's why we're looking at every penny because I've never seen pennies on the least before. 1800 03:03:20,740 --> 03:03:23,240 So it's because they're closing it out. 1801 03:03:23,260 --> 03:03:24,740 Okay, that's fine. 1802 03:03:24,740 --> 03:03:28,000 Well, I'm definitely looking forward to the discussion on this particular topic. 1803 03:03:28,600 --> 03:03:29,720 So if there's nothing else, 1804 03:03:29,780 --> 03:03:33,100 we'll see the clerk and your thoughts from the call for the vote. 1805 03:03:33,720 --> 03:03:35,880 Council Member Silva? Yes. 1806 03:03:36,680 --> 03:03:38,920 Council Member Noble? Yes. 1807 03:03:40,080 --> 03:03:42,560 Council Member Cruz? Yes. 1808 03:03:43,720 --> 03:03:46,000 Member Pro Temros?

I think I have a question though. 1888 03:09:58,760 --> 03:10:05,600 And it was a normal air city clerk that would read what's next on the agenda so that it's clear for everybody that's viewing. 1889 03:10:07,240 --> 03:10:12,660 Perhaps it would be normal, however, I'm really aware of the agenda myself. 1890 03:10:13,080 --> 03:10:17,240 I have no problem reading what's next on the agenda, as if I was a city clerk. 1891 03:10:18,000 --> 03:10:19,080 But thank you for that question. 1892 03:10:19,920 --> 03:10:24,840 I was asking for the for the viewers for the people that they know for our public for our representative. 1893 03:10:29,000 --> 03:10:33,300 Do you have any thing you want to add to item number nine? 1894 03:10:33,740 --> 03:10:36,920 There are no public comments for this item. 1895 03:10:37,420 --> 03:10:37,900 Okay. 1896 03:10:38,260 --> 03:10:38,580 All right. 1897 03:10:39,100 --> 03:10:40,120 Thank you. 1898 03:10:40,160 --> 03:10:41,780 A men are an endless presentation. 1899 03:10:42,620 --> 03:10:44,200 Secretary the presenter on this one. 1900 03:10:44,500 --> 03:10:44,640 Okay. 1901 03:10:44,680 --> 03:10:45,580 Well, thank you, Mr. Mayor. 1902 03:10:45,640 --> 03:10:46,640 Members of the Council. 1903 03:10:47,020 --> 03:10:48,120 And of course, members of the public. 1904 03:10:48,340 --> 03:10:53,120 So we are taking a second look at what we had initially taken a look at. 1905 03:10:53,120 --> 03:11:03,640 And I believe it was February 23rd from the initial CDBG for the fiscal year 2021, 2022. 1906 03:11:05,300 --> 03:11:15,740 And we actually did take the council's request to the county for one more conception project or to allow another project to our list. 1907 03:11:16,020 --> 03:11:19,560 And they approved us. So this is taking a look at the. 1908 03:11:19,560 --> 03:11:26,740 Great. I think Amanda number nine is the CDBG CV 3 project. 1909 03:11:26,840 --> 03:11:32,560 Oh, I apologize. Thank you. That's my point. When we adjourned to public hearing, 1910 03:11:32,720 --> 03:11:36,160 I think it should be very clear that we're adjourning to public hearing, and then we announce 1911 03:11:36,160 --> 03:11:41,200 which item we are on, because it can be confusing. And I would like for everybody to follow 1912 03:11:41,200 --> 03:11:46,500 along, including myself, but more so for the general public, because if there are comments, 1913 03:11:46,500 --> 03:11:51,720 they should be able to follow where we are so that they, if they do have that comment, they know 1914 03:11:51,720 --> 03:11:57,640 what's coming up. So it's just, I think, a proper, some type of protocol that we should establish. 1915 03:12:01,920 --> 03:12:05,380 Thank you. Thank you for that. I may approach him by the rules. 1916 03:12:06,540 --> 03:12:13,260 And, uh, city manager, Dr. Hart, thank you for catching that. Thank you. Yeah.

This is a prioritization of recommended projects. So the city requested a project and was approved and deemed eligible for the project that we submitted. And it is rental assistance. So our intention at the city is to partner with a non-profit or a different subcontract agency to be able to administer that program on behalf of the city of Barclay. 1928 03:13:11,200 --> 03:13:27,580 So for CDVG, CDV3, we were awarded $169,232, and we were approved again in deemed eligible from the county for this funding. 1929 03:13:29,380 --> 03:13:38,380 So without having to go into any of the background of CDVG, because we'll again talk about it a little bit later when we talk about the construction projects. 1930 03:13:38,380 --> 03:13:46,200 This is just the opportunity for the council to discuss whether or not they want to accrue this funding for the rental or rears program. 1931 03:13:46,920 --> 03:13:49,040 Okay. I have a question. 1932 03:13:50,440 --> 03:13:54,540 In the, this 179,000, 203 dollars. 1933 03:13:55,360 --> 03:13:59,570 You know, it's wonderful that we, we have been in one of these funds. 1934 03:14:00,270 --> 03:14:06,810 However, the, for us, designate these funds to a non-profit, or a four-profit, or a 1935 03:14:06,810 --> 03:14:13,210 shooting staff, if we're not discussing that, the, the, the allocation of these funds 1936 03:14:13,210 --> 03:14:16,910 at this time, we're only discussing the exception of these funds, is that correct? 1937 03:14:17,330 --> 03:14:18,250 That is correct, sir. 1938 03:14:18,750 --> 03:14:19,290 So, yes. 1939 03:14:20,170 --> 03:14:25,650 It will then be, if, if the council chooses to approve this funding, if then goes again 1940 03:14:25,650 --> 03:14:30,770 back to the county, it becomes official, and then we are allowed to, however, the council 1941 03:14:30,770 --> 03:14:36,790 sees fit if we want to do an RFP process, then we will go out to find a subcontractor 1942 03:14:36,790 --> 03:14:37,410 for the program. 1943 03:14:37,610 --> 03:14:39,610 But this is just improving the program itself. 1944 03:14:40,450 --> 03:14:47,290 Well, the reason I asked the question is, I've had the opportunity to meet with a couple 1945 03:14:47,290 --> 03:14:50,290 of the local non-profits, as well as in respect. 1946 03:15:00,050 --> 03:15:04,730 We have been discovered and witnessed and seen as well as observed. 1947 03:15:06,950 --> 03:15:09,730 I'm a foreign bliver that if I'm not 1948 03:15:09,730 --> 03:15:16,090 going to put my head down on the pillow and sleep at night, we should not be in a position to 1949 03:15:16,090 --> 03:15:23,690 expect anybody else to do that.

How do we get it there? 2152 03:29:35,140 --> 03:29:42,460 We got it there while first with a contract with the Chamber of Commerce and then a contract with the last property manager. 2153 03:29:43,380 --> 03:29:49,040 So basically, we, with the second kind of track, we got not just the leasing, but also security. 2154 03:29:50,280 --> 03:29:52,880 So if we're going to bring that back in, that would have been a good thing to bring. 2155 03:30:00,000 --> 03:30:19,740 I try to put the state lobbyist. I got no call for many beyond that, so I have no opinion. But on the federal lobbyist, what he answers, I got, and it seemed to be a big reason for counselling it, because the main project they're working on is having no action. Well, that's completely false. 2156 03:30:20,640 --> 03:30:30,260 And the project discussed, I'm the only person in this city, past Council, staff, anybody that's 2157 03:30:30,260 --> 03:30:33,020 saddened the last meeting to get an update about that project. 2158 03:30:33,600 --> 03:30:38,520 And I was not contacted by anyone for an update on that project. 2159 03:30:38,620 --> 03:30:44,460 And that project has seen some progress in fact, the prior council last year approved a new agreement 2160 03:30:44,460 --> 03:30:45,420 on that project. 2161 03:30:45,420 --> 03:30:49,680 We didn't approve it just to approve it and dust it off. We approved it because there is some 2162 03:30:49,680 --> 03:30:56,620 actual on that project. The answer I got was a city manager got input from staff and 2163 03:30:56,620 --> 03:31:00,820 property owners, property owners, but not an council member. 2164 03:31:03,770 --> 03:31:07,510 Now, why are we doing this? 2165 03:31:07,510 --> 03:31:13,270 These contracts were approved by council. These contracts, if we're going to change them, need 2166 03:31:13,270 --> 03:31:22,500 come back, Kansas. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. If I could, I 2167 03:31:22,500 --> 03:31:29,760 can't submit. So I will actually make comments on on that when it comes to me to make my comments. 2168 03:31:30,480 --> 03:31:36,500 Because when we're sharing transparency, I do ask some numbers to speak on me. You know, I'd like 2169 03:31:36,500 --> 03:31:41,360 more than numbers bearers. I would like to know who gave you the city manager. I cannot see an 2170 03:31:41,360 --> 03:31:47,420 from City Manager making this decision on his own. He got input from somewhere to cancel these contracts 2171 03:31:47,920 --> 03:31:51,180 and the citizens of Barcelona deserve it where they came. 2172 03:31:51,820 --> 03:31:53,980 Thank you, Constance Silva. 2173 03:31:56,260 --> 03:31:59,520 Do you want to make a remark, Dr. Hart? 2174 03:32:00,660 --> 03:32:07,740 You know, I think that part of what I was asked to do initially when I came here was to identify 2175 03:32:08,820 --> 03:32:14,600 funding that could be saved because of the city's financial situation. 2176 03:32:15,560 --> 03:32:20,520 I looked in files. I talked to staff. I tried to find that information. 2177 03:32:20,620 --> 03:32:27,720 I'm what was going on with the federal lobbyist and there was no reports. 2178 03:32:27,840 --> 03:32:33,140 Nothing that I could find that justified the $84,000 a year contract. 2179 03:32:33,140 --> 03:32:39,580 So, based on that, I did make the decision to go ahead and cancel that. 2180 03:32:40,240 --> 03:32:46,940 Same with the state lobbyist, Joe Gonzavis, and Sun. 2181 03:32:47,800 --> 03:32:52,460 Again, we were getting reports from them that we get for the League of California cities. 2182 03:32:53,500 --> 03:33:00,640 Contract with them was about $50,000 a year, and then what we looked at with the Harvey House was 2183 03:33:00,640 --> 03:33:04,740 the ability for the staff to be able to take over that 2184 03:33:04,740 --> 03:33:08,820 and to program it and use it in a more productive way. 2185 03:33:09,060 --> 03:33:11,700 And after discussion with the staff, there was a sense 2186 03:33:11,700 --> 03:33:14,920 that they could manage it and probably program it 2187 03:33:14,920 --> 03:33:18,120 a little bit better and make the bringing the revenue in 2188 03:33:18,120 --> 03:33:20,780 that could be generated there. 2189 03:33:20,840 --> 03:33:24,040 So we made that decision, and that the contract 2190 03:33:24,040 --> 03:33:26,240 was about $70,000. 2191 03:33:27,280 --> 03:33:30,200 So I made the decision to do that. 2192 03:33:30,200 --> 03:33:37,100 And when doing that, I have contacted David what more since our discussion through the email 2193 03:33:37,100 --> 03:33:43,820 who gave me an update on the on the casino and basically they're hoping that something 2194 03:33:43,820 --> 03:33:45,440 will happen with the new administration. 2195 03:33:46,640 --> 03:33:49,440 They've got the lascoities and bots of property. 2196 03:33:50,200 --> 03:33:55,620 They're hoping that that will set the interior department on a path to approve it, but there's 2197 03:33:55,620 --> 03:33:58,140 still no guarantee that's going to happen. 2198 03:33:58,140 --> 03:34:03,300 and I told Mr. Whitmore once that process begins if we need to reengage them, 2199 03:34:03,400 --> 03:34:05,640 then certainly we would want to do that. 2200 03:34:06,060 --> 03:34:11,260 A Gonzalez and Sons said that they appreciated the relationship with the city so much 2201 03:34:11,260 --> 03:34:16,180 that they're doing pro bono work for us now and they'll continue that until the city is 2202 03:34:16,180 --> 03:34:21,900 in a financial position where we could pay that. So that was the thinking that went into those 2203 03:34:21,900 --> 03:34:27,100 contracts and the cancellation of those contracts. Thank you for that. 2204 03:34:27,100 --> 03:34:31,880 especially the manager. All due respect, I can appreciate you looking in the financials, 2205 03:34:32,100 --> 03:34:36,440 but I still believe you need to bring that back to the council. We have an agenda item later here 2206 03:34:36,440 --> 03:34:42,120 in number 24. We're going to take power away from the city manager. I believe the three 2207 03:34:42,120 --> 03:34:47,280 least three council members are in favor of this, so I cannot see them agreed then with the 2208 03:34:47,280 --> 03:34:50,300 power you put upon yourself. These need to come back to the council. 2209 03:34:51,460 --> 03:35:01,620 And point well taken, Council Member Silva, you know, I did what I thought I was asked to do if that was wrong and I take full responsibility for that. 2210 03:35:01,740 --> 03:35:07,760 And I recognize it in the future of before any action was taken like that I would bring it back to the council. 2211 03:35:09,200 --> 03:35:10,180 Thank you, Dr. Hart. 2212 03:35:10,820 --> 03:35:12,180 Thank you, Councilman Sullivan. 2213 03:35:14,000 --> 03:35:15,720 Councilwoman Merlin Cruz, 2214 03:35:19,260 --> 03:35:20,380 any comments at this point? 2215 03:35:20,380 --> 03:35:33,380 Yes, yes, just some brief ones actually when I one morning I popped in early to City Hall and I met a gentleman his name was Lawrence and he was in. 2216 03:35:34,920 --> 03:35:41,620 Take maintenance being there, cleaning there at City Hall, and just introduce myself and 2217 03:35:41,620 --> 03:35:49,160 he also shared with me, he works in maintenance prior to going up to City Hall and showing 2218 03:35:49,160 --> 03:35:55,960 some pictures of like our parks and the bathrooms and the brand new bathrooms that we're 2219 03:35:55,960 --> 03:36:00,150 Dean of Park and how, unfortunately, they've been 2220 03:36:01,680 --> 03:36:07,300 vandalized and graffiti and how much time maintenance takes 2221 03:36:07,300 --> 03:36:11,960 a daily on keeping our bathrooms and our parks. 2222 03:36:13,480 --> 03:36:17,230 As best as they can in good shape for our community use. 2223 03:36:17,940 --> 03:36:22,520 So I thought that was very, it was, I really enjoyed talking with him 2224 03:36:22,520 --> 03:36:30,460 And he showed me many pictures of things that go on on a daily basis, that the maintenance department deals with. 2225 03:36:31,320 --> 03:36:47,960 So it was that was very enlightening. I was very happy to see Abigail wheel him back at the main desk up in the front coming back from maternity leave. It's very nice to see her smiling face and I'm also very pleased to see. 2226 03:36:47,960 --> 03:36:50,940 I do not know Jessica's last name, 2227 03:36:51,240 --> 03:36:52,540 but she was brought in, I believe, 2228 03:36:52,680 --> 03:36:58,080 from the Park and Rex to help Mandy in the Bertec building 2229 03:36:58,540 --> 03:37:00,020 in our sewer and trash building. 2230 03:37:00,940 --> 03:37:05,900 And my understanding, she's had already a very positive 2231 03:37:06,480 --> 03:37:09,140 effect in that area as well. 2232 03:37:09,280 --> 03:37:13,280 It only took a couple of days to get all the emails answered 2233 03:37:13,280 --> 03:37:20,480 and get all of the billing or payments that have come in all recorded and up, and I know 2234 03:37:20,480 --> 03:37:27,540 that's got to be a very big relief for Mandy, as well as remainder of staff there who always 2235 03:37:27,540 --> 03:37:32,980 tries to catch the phones and answers questions that they really don't have any answers to 2236 03:37:32,980 --> 03:37:42,440 and take messages. So that was very nice to see that. And I have a question on the building that's 2237 03:37:42,440 --> 03:37:49,400 I call it the old doctor channels, these optometrist, on 1st Street, kind of right between 2238 03:37:49,400 --> 03:37:55,260 Fredericks and William Street. I know it's been, they've tried to set it on fire a few times, 2239 03:37:56,180 --> 03:38:03,320 and if that is going to be doing no when that is hopefully going to be demolished 2240 03:38:03,320 --> 03:38:10,000 because they just kind of wanted to start it on fire every chance they can get. 2241 03:38:10,000 --> 03:38:15,940 I know that's more of a building and safety question, but that was just a comment. 2242 03:38:16,500 --> 03:38:20,660 But I'd also like to thank staff for all of this hard work. 2243 03:38:20,960 --> 03:38:29,640 It's a tremendous amount of work trying to get the grants and with Jessica and Cody and 2244 03:38:29,640 --> 03:38:35,420 the community services and the planning, I don't think the community really realizes just 2245 03:38:35,420 --> 03:38:41,900 how much it takes of their time, even for the extra projects 2246 03:38:41,900 --> 03:38:43,980 on top of the regular job, 2247 03:38:44,120 --> 03:38:48,040 the regular requirements to fulfill the, 2248 03:38:48,040 --> 03:38:50,680 for in the planning department and the building department. 2249 03:38:51,400 --> 03:38:53,100 So I really like to thank all of them 2250 03:38:53,100 --> 03:39:00,340 and I know finances is really trying to get themselves 2251 03:39:00,340 --> 03:39:04,020 up to speed with Mary, hopefully, 2252 03:39:04,020 --> 03:39:18,420 I know Mary is going to be here for I believe in other couple of months, but we've just got, we've got some work ahead of us, but we've also got everybody that's pulling their weight and even an additional trying to help out their co-workers. 2253 03:39:19,260 --> 03:39:30,880 But it's nice to see that the smiling faces that are there back and it was very nice meeting Lawrence and really just taking the time to listen to him. 2254 03:39:30,880 --> 03:39:38,500 with Ferry. I know he appreciated it and I appreciated what he had to share. So that's really about it, 2255 03:39:38,660 --> 03:39:46,000 but I am concerned about that darn building and hopefully it's going to come down. So that's 2256 03:39:46,000 --> 03:39:51,660 really all that I have to share this evening. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, Councilwoman Cruz. 2257 03:39:53,320 --> 03:39:55,100 Thank you, Mayor. 2258 03:39:55,820 --> 03:39:57,160 A couple of things. 2259 03:39:57,940 --> 03:40:01,160 Tender the military affairs meeting last week. 2260 03:40:01,520 --> 03:40:03,980 A couple of hot items that are coming up. 2261 03:40:04,160 --> 03:40:08,260 They're going to be a few change in commands coming up. 2262 03:40:08,440 --> 03:40:14,320 MCLB is going to be changing our current claimants with a kind of Gregory Peck. 2263 03:40:14,580 --> 03:40:16,600 Somewhere around mid July timeframe. 2264 03:40:16,600 --> 03:40:30,400 so keep that available.

Instead, of course, they're provided to the city council. They're made 2301 03:44:14,770 --> 03:44:19,530 available to the public, and we receive the emails up through as we saw tonight, up through 2302 03:44:19,530 --> 03:44:24,330 the opening of the clothes of public hearings on those items, for every other item, emails 2303 03:44:24,330 --> 03:44:26,210 that we receive through 4 o'clock today. 2304 03:44:27,990 --> 03:44:32,670 So with you respect to the newspaper, the city is not in violation of the Brown Act as it is 2305 03:44:32,670 --> 03:44:36,010 presently constituted through the governor's executive orders. 2306 03:44:36,690 --> 03:44:40,790 As is noted, of course, there's a key caveat, the governor can change his executive orders. 2307 03:44:40,790 --> 03:44:52,870 And we also recognize that I think I wouldn't be too far outside of my role to say that the council all five strongly valued public comment in transparency, and on that front, I has no extra support. 2308 03:45:00,000 --> 03:45:06,400 House, once the council is back in chambers developing a method to allow folks to comment while still maintaining social distancing. 2309 03:45:07,300 --> 03:45:09,820 And I think the goal is to have that in place. 2310 03:45:10,240 --> 03:45:16,700 If one of the two April meetings, ideally the first, but perhaps the second April meeting, as Dr. Hard noted before. 2311 03:45:18,100 --> 03:45:19,740 Thank you so much for that. 2312 03:45:19,800 --> 03:45:21,100 Thank you.

In the manager has the authority to do that. The mistake that I made is what was pointed out by Council 2372 03:48:59,410 --> 03:49:07,300 Moor Silva's. I did that, but then I neglected to let the council know that had occurred and I took responsibility for that. 2373 03:49:08,590 --> 03:49:16,810 As you said, I came in. I was inundated with the million things and I was trying to act and do I felt was the appropriate thing for bar stuff. 2374 03:49:16,810 --> 03:49:21,770 And I failed in one area and that was to communicate with the council. 2375 03:49:22,410 --> 03:49:24,090 And I've got the message now. 2376 03:49:24,370 --> 03:49:26,310 If the council proves the contract, 2377 03:49:26,790 --> 03:49:31,690 they, in fact, want to be the ones to cancel a contract or discuss cancellation, 2378 03:49:32,550 --> 03:49:34,370 fully understand them from now on. 2379 03:49:34,570 --> 03:49:36,250 That would have been. 2380 03:49:36,890 --> 03:49:37,510 Thank you. 2381 03:49:37,510 --> 03:49:38,870 Thank you for that, Dr. Hart. 2382 03:49:39,110 --> 03:49:41,450 And like I said, my, my hats off to you. 2383 03:49:41,450 --> 03:49:43,130 You've done a tremendous job. 2384 03:49:43,130 --> 03:49:49,970 And one thing that is definitely clear is you take a full responsibility for your decisions 2385 03:49:50,770 --> 03:49:57,350 and at the same time you're very, very aware and you become more, or in light and as we speak. 2386 03:49:57,790 --> 03:50:02,370 Okay, thank you. So I'll go make comments at this time. Okay, this is our person's policy 2387 03:50:02,370 --> 03:50:08,790 for the City of Arshino. It hasn't been updated since 2015. Okay, I know this person's 2388 03:50:08,790 --> 03:50:15,070 policy a well because I went through it several times. This is something else that Dr. Harded 2389 03:50:15,070 --> 03:50:22,050 inherited, our personally policy. And so I'm not going to get into details on the person 2390 03:50:22,050 --> 03:50:25,110 policy right now, how it is a public information that's available. 2391 03:50:27,290 --> 03:50:29,690 So with Dr. Harder's authority 2392 03:50:29,690 --> 03:50:38,670 to be our senior manager, I can't say it better than our Mayor for Tim has made it clear. He is our 2393 03:50:38,670 --> 03:50:48,790 of these contracts. I'll open up, doing back in October. It was reported that the senior 2394 03:50:48,790 --> 03:50:55,570 Barso had re-worked a redistress and we signed there. I'm not sure what the time was, 2395 03:50:57,830 --> 03:51:04,290 what the union tribes of the casino and then saw them. At that point in time, 2396 03:51:04,290 --> 03:51:14,870 Council woman, new to the council, corrected the statement, because she has lineage with the Indian tribes. 2397 03:51:15,890 --> 03:51:29,150 And she quickly informed us of reality of the Indian tribes based on her homework and conversations being a direct descendant of Indian tribes. 2398 03:51:29,150 --> 03:51:34,210 So that particular thing, it was kind of, it was no comment. 2399 03:51:36,350 --> 03:51:39,330 The, the councils agreement are, 2400 03:51:39,350 --> 03:51:43,010 discussions or whatever it was with the tribes was never validated, 2401 03:51:43,550 --> 03:51:45,970 nor any documentation was ever discovered, 2402 03:51:46,490 --> 03:51:48,470 validated that thing that was made. 2403 03:51:49,910 --> 03:51:51,250 So they make a long story short, 2404 03:51:51,710 --> 03:51:55,010 with our federal, with our federal lobbyists. 2405 03:51:56,010 --> 03:52:06,170 We have been paying, since April of 2008, and we have paid them $1.8 million on EFK, 2406 03:52:06,590 --> 03:52:11,110 which means that I turn it, funds, automatically out of our accounts, everything I'm on. 2407 03:52:12,090 --> 03:52:20,310 Okay, prior to Dr. Hart coming on board, a request is made on what has this, 2408 03:52:20,310 --> 03:52:28,430 these federal group have died for us in 2008 and why would we have paid them $1.88? 2409 03:52:29,810 --> 03:52:33,970 This would take a lot of this firm as well to this day to provide this any proof of 2410 03:52:33,970 --> 03:52:40,190 eating that they've done. They have done nothing besides students' bill. And we have paid them 2411 03:52:40,710 --> 03:52:50,090 $1.88 7,005,000,00, EFT each month is 2008 and until this day they provided us no proof of 2412 03:52:50,090 --> 03:52:58,050 they have done. Nothing. What really alarm me is less than a month and a half ago, the American 2413 03:52:58,050 --> 03:53:05,450 courts, they needed intervention on their passports to get, actually, people from China 2414 03:53:05,450 --> 03:53:12,310 become to America, and they needed letters of, basically, letters of North Lawrence. So at that 2415 03:53:12,310 --> 03:53:19,370 point in time, our ISU, my federal lobbyists would have been able to intervene and help us, 2416 03:53:19,370 --> 03:53:20,870 Well, long story short, they could not. 2417 03:53:22,970 --> 03:53:29,710 So myself, as well as Dr. Hart, and I believe HR here at the city, we actually wrote the 2418 03:53:29,710 --> 03:53:34,430 letters, you know, signed them and delivered them to the American courts because our federal 2419 03:53:34,430 --> 03:53:39,850 lobbyists that we've been paying since 2008, $1.8 million, that's something they said they 2420 03:53:39,850 --> 03:53:46,250 can't do until, to this day, still nothing for the $1.8 million on record, because we can 2421 03:53:46,250 --> 03:53:46,610 validate. 2422 03:53:46,610 --> 03:53:51,950 that's on the federal side. Now we'll talk about the state side. This is 2423 03:53:51,950 --> 03:53:58,490 Gonzales and Sons. Same thing, we've been paying them, we paid them 4,500 per 2424 03:53:58,490 --> 03:54:04,430 month, EFT. We've been paying them a part of the same period of time. We've 2425 03:54:04,430 --> 03:54:13,590 paid them 5,585,114 dollars. Same thing, they could not provide us any 2426 03:54:13,590 --> 03:54:19,050 information that what they have done besides information that we get on a regular basis from 2427 03:54:19,050 --> 03:54:24,250 California, New York City. And it was very interesting when it was bought to my attention 2428 03:54:24,250 --> 03:54:29,250 by our internal security manager, because look at these reports and look at these, 2429 03:54:29,250 --> 03:54:33,630 it's the same thing that we get, we already get from the health of New York City, and we 2430 03:54:33,630 --> 03:54:39,590 were paying that to to the Clause and Clause. I sense same thing for $85,000 for the same 2431 03:54:39,590 --> 03:54:47,110 information. Well, because off and signed, Mr. González acted, reached out to me twice, you know, on a 2432 03:54:47,110 --> 03:54:55,770 on a, you know, a meeting over, over, led client meeting and said, first of, he was very gracious 2433 03:54:55,770 --> 03:55:01,190 that he's done business with Marshall Augustine. We've paid him, however, they treasure relationship, 2434 03:55:01,530 --> 03:55:08,390 and they are willing to keep it on their books, pro bono, and right now they're doing pro bono 2435 03:55:08,390 --> 03:55:11,010 until a decision is made on what's going to happen. 2436 03:55:11,430 --> 03:55:16,130 And he took full responsibility for lack of a term. 2437 03:55:16,570 --> 03:55:19,110 We were just paying them, and they were just giving us 2438 03:55:19,110 --> 03:55:22,430 standard reports because that's how it's been. 2439 03:55:23,230 --> 03:55:24,670 And I was really taking that. 2440 03:55:25,090 --> 03:55:30,250 And so I applied to Dr. Hart for doing this due diligence 2441 03:55:30,250 --> 03:55:33,450 in efforts and recognizing, you know, 2442 03:55:34,010 --> 03:55:37,430 if you take 1.8 million and in 5.85,000, 2443 03:55:37,430 --> 03:55:42,950 That's our two-man dollars. We paid to just two lobbyists, which I assume are really 2444 03:55:42,950 --> 03:55:47,470 rethought. They were live in for the decinos or whatever the case didn't be. But still for this day, 2445 03:55:47,770 --> 03:55:52,470 there's no proof for what they were doing because we have no documentation supporting that 2446 03:55:52,470 --> 03:55:59,130 besides we've been paying them by EFK since 2008. Now at the time, our contractor for the 2447 03:55:59,130 --> 03:56:07,090 Harvey House, we paid them 84,909 signals per month and we've been doing that for over a half of that 2448 03:56:07,090 --> 03:56:11,850 and most in a video that I understand what happened that came in five years. 2449 03:56:12,390 --> 03:56:16,070 So if we just paid 84,000 times five years, 2450 03:56:16,490 --> 03:56:20,150 that's a lot of money that we've been paying to this one provider, 2451 03:56:20,610 --> 03:56:24,230 which I believe has done a very decent job. 2452 03:56:24,730 --> 03:56:27,450 However, at the same time, we look at staff, city staff, 2453 03:56:27,750 --> 03:56:29,990 who's on part-time or laid off. 2454 03:56:30,430 --> 03:56:31,650 Looking for something to do. 2455 03:56:31,650 --> 03:56:35,430 So, for Dr. Sala, the doctor, um, 2456 03:56:36,530 --> 03:56:38,750 hard to recognize that we can, 2457 03:56:38,850 --> 03:56:40,990 we can pick that same 84,000, 2458 03:56:41,010 --> 03:56:44,530 96 dollars and pay it to existing city staff, 2459 03:56:45,570 --> 03:56:47,750 who are on reduced hours, 2460 03:56:48,030 --> 03:56:49,650 and we have the capability to do, 2461 03:56:50,350 --> 03:56:52,310 uh, the same type of deliverables, 2462 03:56:52,590 --> 03:56:54,010 especially for Harvey House being, 2463 03:56:54,390 --> 03:56:55,930 a economic development draw, 2464 03:56:56,870 --> 03:56:57,670 a father of self, 2465 03:56:58,050 --> 03:57:01,090 what a great opportunity to empower city staff, 2466 03:57:01,090 --> 03:57:06,150 to recognize the value of the Harvey House, and at the same time, we can hear them 2467 03:57:06,150 --> 03:57:09,350 the 84,000, 1996, opposed to a contractor. 2468 03:57:10,350 --> 03:57:13,590 And I found, totally makes sense, totally makes sense. 2469 03:57:13,590 --> 03:57:15,170 I mean, totally makes sense. 2470 03:57:16,430 --> 03:57:21,030 And so, Mr. Councilman said, well, clearly indicated that he was contacted 2471 03:57:21,650 --> 03:57:26,010 by outside party or outside influence and outside people. 2472 03:57:26,010 --> 03:57:31,990 He's not to tell him that contracts have been severed or case may be. 2473 03:57:32,490 --> 03:57:37,930 That is very interesting because none of those outside parties, whoever it might be, 2474 03:57:38,470 --> 03:57:44,170 as, you know, I've heard from anybody about Wisconsin contracts, and as just like the 2475 03:57:44,170 --> 03:57:49,990 city manager is recognizing ways to recuperate money or save money and using the money 2476 03:57:49,990 --> 03:57:54,050 particularly on what's best for a bar show, not best for 2477 03:57:54,050 --> 03:57:56,990 two-labority, a contractor, or what's best for a 2478 03:57:56,990 --> 03:57:59,870 fitness associate, a contractor, or what's best for 2479 03:57:59,870 --> 03:58:02,750 his loss and son, a contractor. So if we just take these 2480 03:58:02,750 --> 03:58:07,630 numbers along, you know, we're going to say hundreds of 2481 03:58:07,630 --> 03:58:11,090 thousand dollars in just 12 months, and people who were not 2482 03:58:11,090 --> 03:58:15,550 delivered, both contractors, or a contractor who was under 2483 03:58:15,550 --> 03:58:20,850 But we can spend that money on city staff and in power of city staff. 2484 03:58:20,890 --> 03:58:21,550 Thank you, Robert. 2485 03:58:21,870 --> 03:58:24,750 Our people are opposed to pan and out. 2486 03:58:25,370 --> 03:58:27,270 And in some way, question, wait a minute. 2487 03:58:27,710 --> 03:58:29,810 You know, I'm in the contract business myself. 2488 03:58:30,370 --> 03:58:34,610 I would love to be able to provide services too, 2489 03:58:34,750 --> 03:58:35,750 to where it might be. 2490 03:58:36,390 --> 03:58:40,010 However, when organizations are trying to empower the staff, 2491 03:58:40,490 --> 03:58:42,370 they eliminate contract positions. 2492 03:58:42,370 --> 03:58:48,490 and all Dr. Hart has been able to recognize is the value for the city of Barsiv, make the 2493 03:58:48,490 --> 03:58:55,910 city what's best, and at the same time to empower our style.

I am happy to open it up to 2700 04:22:13,670 --> 04:22:20,930 discussion if there are any questions of myself if the council wants to discuss this agenda item. 2701 04:22:23,870 --> 04:22:31,510 Okay, so this is the, if I could just add on to that, Mr. Mayor, thank you, Amanda. 2702 04:22:32,970 --> 04:22:38,470 Staff would, I'm in to present it a couple of options to you for how to cover the $1,200. 2703 04:22:40,110 --> 04:22:41,330 That was reduced. 2704 04:22:42,170 --> 04:22:49,710 I would recommend that we would recommend to you that you take that $1,200 out of the unallocated funds 2705 04:22:49,710 --> 04:22:56,510 so that we don't reduce any of the allocations that we've made to the organizations, but it'll reduce our 2706 04:22:57,210 --> 04:23:06,850 program money by about $1,200. And then also with the Desert Manor Project, I think it was 2707 04:23:06,850 --> 04:23:15,670 raised by Mr. Hill with the other time that a parking lot's not an approved use of 2708 04:23:15,670 --> 04:23:23,230 block grant money. So, essentially, all that's available to allocate would be that for the 2709 04:23:23,230 --> 04:23:29,510 the roof project and then potentially an alarm system if you want it to do that. 2710 04:23:31,110 --> 04:23:36,370 So we're recommending that you allocate, if the council chooses to allocate, that you 2711 04:23:36,370 --> 04:23:42,170 would allocate money for the roof and if you wanted to allocate something for the alarm 2712 04:23:42,170 --> 04:23:48,990 system that you do that, they didn't identify the specific costs of the roof, but in their 2713 04:23:48,990 --> 04:23:52,290 application, they have $66,000 for construction. 2714 04:23:53,150 --> 04:23:55,830 I'm assuming that included the parking lot. 2715 04:23:55,970 --> 04:23:58,210 So we may want to reduce that some, 2716 04:23:58,510 --> 04:24:01,590 but they do have the alarm system at $13,500. 2717 04:24:03,130 --> 04:24:07,710 So if it was council wants to allocate to the roof 2718 04:24:07,710 --> 04:24:10,550 into the alarm system, I would suggest maybe 2719 04:24:10,550 --> 04:24:13,910 that $66,000 for probably cover both. 2720 04:24:14,510 --> 04:24:17,670 And if you didn't want to do that, then I would recommend 2721 04:24:17,670 --> 04:24:22,610 to probably $50,000 for the roof repair. 2722 04:24:23,090 --> 04:24:25,150 Understanding that may be more than they need, 2723 04:24:25,230 --> 04:24:26,770 but anything they don't spend, 2724 04:24:26,770 --> 04:24:29,370 goes back into our unallocated funds. 2725 04:24:30,470 --> 04:24:32,750 Dr. Harty, if I remember correctly, 2726 04:24:33,110 --> 04:24:37,210 our last meeting, they had said that their roof was, 2727 04:24:37,210 --> 04:24:39,850 well, about 3,000 square feet. 2728 04:24:39,990 --> 04:24:43,610 It was about the same and Mr. Heldworth, maybe you can help out. 2729 04:24:43,610 --> 04:24:47,950 about the same size as the museum. 2730 04:24:48,290 --> 04:24:52,190 And we were giving the museum about 65,000 2731 04:24:52,190 --> 04:24:53,570 for the Ripple loan. 2732 04:24:55,710 --> 04:25:00,590 So the one difference between the museum's roof 2733 04:25:00,590 --> 04:25:03,070 and this roof that is over there at the Desert 2734 04:25:03,070 --> 04:25:05,370 Mount of Facility is the museum's roof 2735 04:25:05,370 --> 04:25:06,710 was a rock roof. 2736 04:25:07,550 --> 04:25:10,850 So it actually has tar on top of the plywood and stuff. 2737 04:25:10,850 --> 04:25:13,130 and then they put rock on top of that, 2738 04:25:13,350 --> 04:25:16,250 that was the style back then. 2739 04:25:17,470 --> 04:25:21,290 Now, the Desert Manifacility is just comp-chingles, 2740 04:25:21,490 --> 04:25:24,570 which is your average, just a comp-chingle. 2741 04:25:24,730 --> 04:25:25,830 So it's easier to tear off. 2742 04:25:25,830 --> 04:25:27,110 It's easier to replace. 2743 04:25:28,550 --> 04:25:33,090 The other thing with the museum facility is 2744 04:25:33,090 --> 04:25:36,290 there's a lot of dry rock with a lot of the boards 2745 04:25:36,290 --> 04:25:38,430 around that we can see from underneath. 2746 04:25:39,210 --> 04:25:40,830 So they were actually gonna be replaced. 2747 04:25:41,610 --> 04:25:47,890 the majority of all the wood, the face of boards, all that stuff too, with the cost of the roof. 2748 04:25:48,070 --> 04:25:54,370 So it wasn't just the replacement of just that, but it was replacement of some structural stuff as well. 2749 04:25:54,870 --> 04:25:58,710 I don't know the desert amount of facility, I just know it is a comp shingle roof, 2750 04:25:59,190 --> 04:26:05,310 but I don't know if they were trying to replace facing boards or any of that kind of stuff. 2751 04:26:05,330 --> 04:26:07,090 I don't know if that was in their price or not. 2752 04:26:08,720 --> 04:26:17,060 Well, just as a reminder, I mean whatever is a side that they're going to do, we actually 2753 04:26:17,720 --> 04:26:25,760 manage the project as the custodia for the CBG monies, as well as inspect and make sure 2754 04:26:25,760 --> 04:26:31,000 the work is done according to the stipulations, so laid out in the grant, is that correct? 2755 04:26:32,580 --> 04:26:33,880 Yes, that's correct. 2756 04:26:35,640 --> 04:26:57,560 The only other thing that I want to clarify is if we give them let's say 65,000 and they don't use the 65,000, the money will come back to us, but if we undercut and we only give them 50,000 and they cannot complete the project, what happens, they would ask for a change of order and ask for more. 2757 04:26:57,560 --> 04:27:03,880 Yeah, they would the Mingroking jump in here too. I know he's still on here, but basically it's a change order that they request 2758 04:27:03,880 --> 04:27:11,120 There's it's a lot of paperwork. Basically the Mingo would would process the paperwork. You would turn around and send it back to CDVG and 2759 04:27:11,120 --> 04:27:16,140 Obviously there'd still be some funds left over if you know however you guys decided to do your the allocation 2760 04:27:16,140 --> 04:27:22,460 There there's still funds left over in that account to where CDVG could award additional money is to cover 2761 04:27:23,280 --> 04:27:27,540 The cost of anything. It was an expected basically as long as it was in that 2762 04:27:27,560 --> 04:27:36,410 But what the county is recommending is that we overallocate to make sure that you cover your 2763 04:27:36,410 --> 04:27:41,050 costs and that you take anything and stuff to over and put back into your own program. 2764 04:27:45,240 --> 04:27:49,760 But again, it depends on the projects that you want to approve. 2765 04:27:49,780 --> 04:27:55,100 They approve only the alarm system for 13,000 if you want. 2766 04:27:56,220 --> 04:28:00,180 So it's up to the council to decide how you want to help keep funding. 2767 04:28:01,500 --> 04:28:08,120 Well, I would recommend if we were the funding available and this is something that we 2768 04:28:08,120 --> 04:28:15,480 can actually do and we actually manage the project as an overseer from start to finish 2769 04:28:15,480 --> 04:28:24,220 to whatever contractor, I don't see any reservation if we got the money to do it, why not 2770 04:28:24,220 --> 04:28:32,580 do it, as long as we are the ones that control the expenditures outcome and the workers 2771 04:28:32,580 --> 04:28:33,440 aren't correctly. 2772 04:28:35,540 --> 04:28:41,800 That's my two cents. Anything else from the governors? 2773 04:28:42,340 --> 04:28:48,780 I do. I have a question. So I realize this also has to be prevailing wages that correct. 2774 04:28:48,780 --> 04:28:57,300 that I was looking here to see really quick but none of time to let on what they submitted 2775 04:28:57,300 --> 04:29:07,020 they as in Desert Manna for their request. Did they break it down for the roof and then for each 2776 04:29:07,020 --> 04:29:12,760 individual thing or did they just didn't they just give us like a lump sum of what they were asking for 2777 04:29:12,760 --> 04:29:20,560 and then they had prioritized what they wanted to do with each other age 359 of the agenda. 2778 04:29:21,100 --> 04:29:29,500 They'll see where they paid their request. It was $66,000 for construction, but that included the parking lot. 2779 04:29:30,640 --> 04:29:39,780 They included the parking lot. Yes, correct. You wanted $13,500 for the alarm or security system. 2780 04:29:39,780 --> 04:29:42,840 So a total of $7,9,500. 2781 04:29:43,640 --> 04:29:46,180 I think you know the parking lot's not inappropriate. 2782 04:29:47,100 --> 04:29:51,040 You go back to what Pierre Pro Tim Rose was saying, 2783 04:29:51,080 --> 04:29:56,600 deallicated, let's say $65,000, $6,000, $6,000, $6,000, $6,000, $6,000, $6,000, $6,000, $6,000, $6,000, $6,000. 2784 04:30:00,000 --> 04:30:12,460 If you're doing just a regular roof job with the composite tiles up there are singles, you probably 2785 04:30:12,460 --> 04:30:20,640 are in the 50,000 zone, I would thank someone 50, 55.

2869 04:35:55,330 --> 04:35:55,850 Yes. 2870 04:35:56,630 --> 04:35:57,930 For me, my screen is split. 2871 04:36:00,270 --> 04:36:10,810 But there's an existing 12-foot utility easement on the storage facility side that's incorrectly labeled in the report as a road but it's a utility easement. 2872 04:36:11,910 --> 04:36:24,750 The staff is requiring a 12-foot farling so that emergency vehicles could reach the back house of the property, a commercial driveway, curb gutter and sidewalk or fee and lieu of the sidewalk shall maintain landscaping. 2873 04:36:24,750 --> 04:36:31,270 They will provide vector control if there are any rodents mosquitoes or birds, so if they have open 2874 04:36:31,270 --> 04:36:34,110 top containers, they need to be covered when not in use. 2875 04:36:35,170 --> 04:36:41,930 The site will have material or paving in any area used by the recycling center, so the middle 2876 04:36:41,930 --> 04:36:44,530 area cannot remain as dirt. 2877 04:36:44,870 --> 04:36:49,190 This is also reflected in the Mojave Desert air that is attached. 2878 04:36:49,990 --> 04:36:53,490 The North End is industrial, the BNSF railroad. 2879 04:36:54,650 --> 04:36:57,610 The South End is a residential parcel. 2880 04:36:57,850 --> 04:37:02,050 The East End is a storage facility. 2881 04:37:02,390 --> 04:37:04,830 The West End is Desert Sun's Outdoors. 2882 04:37:06,390 --> 04:37:10,390 And the application was denied by planning commission in a two-to-one vote. 2883 04:37:11,030 --> 04:37:15,650 The reason is giving for the denial of application around the grounds that is too close to residential. 2884 04:37:15,650 --> 04:37:23,910 So, it has been requested that I show you how close residential is in other locations of the city. 2885 04:37:24,990 --> 04:37:27,870 So, this is GNS recycling. 2886 04:37:28,050 --> 04:37:31,990 Oh, is it requested by me? 2887 04:37:31,990 --> 04:37:34,650 It was requested by me, ma'am. 2888 04:37:35,610 --> 04:37:36,130 Thank you so much. 2889 04:37:37,130 --> 04:37:41,010 So, I'll just jump in really fast to help her back on this part. 2890 04:37:41,010 --> 04:38:00,150 Basically, what we wanted to do is the main concern of our planning commissioner was that the location of the proposed recycling facility is extremely close to a residential neighborhood, which will jump back to that eventually, but you can stay right there, Becca. 2891 04:38:01,830 --> 04:38:29,450 So basically the planning commissioner had a objective of there was one residential home directly behind this facility as you can see, you see those two, you see where the yellow yellow pan is, this is where the majority of the containers will be and then the recycling facility will be up towards the top, that's where you would the clients will be, there's a home, there's an existing vacant home that's right here on the property and there were back a circling. 2892 04:38:29,450 --> 04:38:34,090 And then the occupied residence is the one that's all the way in the back, back here. 2893 04:38:35,170 --> 04:38:42,050 Everything to the left are to the west of the property is actually a tow yard, that's not a 24-7 operation. 2894 04:38:42,990 --> 04:38:48,090 Then you have the recycling facility, a storage facility that is to the east. 2895 04:38:49,030 --> 04:38:50,330 And that's what is surrounding it. 2896 04:38:51,690 --> 04:38:57,610 But the reasoning for denial from the planning commissioners were from the one kept planning commissioner was, 2897 04:38:57,610 --> 04:39:04,390 that it was too close to neighboring residential community, which is Arbor Way, which if you scroll back, 2898 04:39:04,430 --> 04:39:09,250 keep going a little bit more, Rebecca, down. You can see Arbor Way and all that is over here. 2899 04:39:09,650 --> 04:39:16,970 So what I asked Rebecca was to do is to provide the location of two existing recycling facilities 2900 04:39:16,970 --> 04:39:22,470 that are in our community and show exactly how close they are to residential properties on those ones. 2901 04:39:22,470 --> 04:39:29,450 So that you guys can have a better understanding of the other facilities that are in our community as well. 2902 04:39:30,210 --> 04:39:38,910 And the main thing that's driving this recycling facility is there's a state law that came out is it's calorie cycle. 2903 04:39:39,470 --> 04:39:46,670 They are requiring parties, parties meet and also Jack's liquor, it's on the corner. 2904 04:39:47,430 --> 04:39:54,210 Since they're within a half a mile of what they consider, like a grocery store, which is Walmart. 2905 04:39:54,730 --> 04:40:00,730 Since the news, since it became a super Walmart, they consider that a grocery store now. 2906 04:40:01,030 --> 04:40:06,470 So that facility, any location around that has to, they have to pre-el the provide within 2907 04:40:06,470 --> 04:40:11,970 a half a mile of location, they have to provide recycling, which takes back your CRD, you know, 2908 04:40:12,050 --> 04:40:14,990 your soda cans and your milk jugs and stuff like that. 2909 04:40:14,990 --> 04:40:23,570 So, the other facilities are what we believe put us on the map was, so pretty much Jack's 2910 04:40:23,570 --> 04:40:28,150 liquor and parties meet, has both received letters that they're going to be find by a 2911 04:40:28,150 --> 04:40:33,310 calorie cycle if they do not start accepting recyclables at their facilities. 2912 04:40:34,090 --> 04:40:40,590 So now, whenever this facility came up, we told them to hold off until maybe because neither 2913 04:40:40,590 --> 04:40:47,270 one of them want to accept recycling at their facilities because one of them is a meat market 2914 04:40:47,270 --> 04:40:53,870 and they feel that it would be detrimental to their clientele to have that there. So that's why 2915 04:40:53,870 --> 04:40:59,730 whenever this project came forward, they held off, but they're actually getting fined by the state 2916 04:41:00,230 --> 04:41:08,250 with color cycle on not providing the CRB redemption. We're under $1 a day if they don't provide 2917 04:41:10,030 --> 04:41:27,250 So that's one of the main things, and that's why I asked Rebecca to also provide the additional locations of our other recycling facilities where they can actually, she can show you how close they are to residential neighborhoods as well. 2918 04:41:27,250 --> 04:41:31,650 So go ahead Rebecca, sorry, sorry for so long on that. 2919 04:41:32,410 --> 04:41:33,250 No, I was good. 2920 04:41:33,590 --> 04:41:36,470 You just took the second half of my presentation. 2921 04:41:36,850 --> 04:41:38,370 I'm not complaining at all. 2922 04:41:38,970 --> 04:41:41,930 So you can see this is the all recycling center. 2923 04:41:42,970 --> 04:41:45,970 And for a few years, this is all residential here, 2924 04:41:45,970 --> 04:41:48,510 and this is still residential at the back. 2925 04:41:49,930 --> 04:41:52,030 And then down here is residential as well. 2926 04:41:52,330 --> 04:41:55,230 It's actually recently been bought 2927 04:41:55,230 --> 04:42:04,850 By another organization that's going, I believe they're putting houses back in that area that they've cleared out was there at the moment. 2928 04:42:05,810 --> 04:42:10,930 And then this one right here, this is GNS recycling. 2929 04:42:12,070 --> 04:42:16,350 And there's a residential house right here, and there's other residential looks. 2930 04:42:16,490 --> 04:42:18,550 I'm still in this circular. 2931 04:42:20,480 --> 04:42:24,500 That's about 200 feet away from the recycling center. 2932 04:42:27,380 --> 04:42:36,480 So that's the existing, the two existing recycling centers and the residential next to them. 2933 04:42:36,680 --> 04:42:43,380 So if you wanted to put that into perspective, these ones right here, 2934 04:42:44,480 --> 04:42:46,820 that's probably where they're going to have their last container. 2935 04:42:47,100 --> 04:42:49,520 So that one's also about 200 feet away. 2936 04:42:54,340 --> 04:42:55,240 Let's see. 2937 04:42:56,970 --> 04:43:09,230 And just to point out, we condition the CUP, like we do every single CUP, if there's issues 2938 04:43:09,230 --> 04:43:13,670 at that property code enforcement will be involved. If there's other issues at the property, 2939 04:43:13,970 --> 04:43:19,150 you know what we'll get every department involved that needs to be involved. We've been working 2940 04:43:19,150 --> 04:43:24,970 with the applicant to mitigate any issues that we see that they're showing the containers off the 2941 04:43:24,970 --> 04:43:38,110 They're trying to do the best they can, they complied with AQMD on putting down the base material throughout the property so that they've satisfied their requirements. 2942 04:43:39,770 --> 04:43:53,570 So all this was presented to the Planning Commission and they chose not to approve this and now the applicant has basically objected to that and now it's come to Council for your guys's recommendation on. 2943 04:43:54,170 --> 04:43:56,930 What would you guys see fit with this? 2944 04:43:57,310 --> 04:43:59,350 Well, I have a few questions about the match. 2945 04:44:01,980 --> 04:44:03,520 I did go through the site. 2946 04:44:04,060 --> 04:44:06,200 I actually walked the site to look at. 2947 04:44:07,080 --> 04:44:14,440 And I didn't realize that there was a resonance on the property far back that was occupied, 2948 04:44:14,640 --> 04:44:18,640 because it didn't appear as though either was occupied. 2949 04:44:19,120 --> 04:44:22,960 Actually, one is not, you can't even occupy on the property. 2950 04:44:22,960 --> 04:44:26,200 Then obviously there was one in the back. 2951 04:44:27,080 --> 04:44:34,920 Then I found out about the penalties that are being levied upon two local businesses. 2952 04:44:36,060 --> 04:44:44,440 In the necessity of having a recycling center within the appropriate proximity. 2953 04:44:45,840 --> 04:44:55,160 Then I, when I visited the other two, I'll recycling sites because one of the actually is a neighbor to where I have, I have interest in a property. 2954 04:44:56,420 --> 04:44:58,140 And residents were much closer. 2955 04:44:58,680 --> 04:44:59,960 I mean, it just, you know, and... 2956 04:45:00,000 --> 04:45:06,080 I thought, man, you know, the distance, the residents are actually closer to the other sites, you know, how 2957 04:45:06,080 --> 04:45:12,020 our why would we actually not approve a business that wants to do business in March, don't first of 2958 04:45:12,020 --> 04:45:17,300 all, which is, I think, God for anybody at this point, because after visiting a lot of locations 2959 04:45:17,300 --> 04:45:22,840 and cities, we're one of the few cities where people aren't lying up to new business. And we also 2960 04:45:22,840 --> 04:45:29,460 way he wants to do business. And they're going to provide a business that's necessary to avoid penalties 2961 04:45:29,460 --> 04:45:33,420 of two existing, this is done quite well in their town. 2962 04:45:34,160 --> 04:45:40,020 I was as far as I guess at the, why would it have been denied at the Panic Commissioner 2963 04:45:40,020 --> 04:45:40,420 Local? 2964 04:45:41,000 --> 04:45:46,540 Because I was actually delighted to see this show up on the agenda because I don't know 2965 04:45:46,540 --> 04:45:53,780 the details of the history, but it definitely appears as though the Panic Commissioners 2966 04:45:53,780 --> 04:46:01,700 definitely made a incorrect decision based on the reality, 2967 04:46:02,480 --> 04:46:06,300 proximity, doing business, saving expenses on existence, 2968 04:46:07,400 --> 04:46:08,120 business, et cetera. 2969 04:46:08,820 --> 04:46:11,160 And so Chris, I would actually, you are a top building 2970 04:46:11,160 --> 04:46:13,060 official as well as our farm marshal. 2971 04:46:13,400 --> 04:46:15,400 You've been around for 14 years or so. 2972 04:46:15,700 --> 04:46:17,400 You've seen this coming all over the place. 2973 04:46:18,280 --> 04:46:20,660 You know, what would you, what would you, 2974 04:46:20,660 --> 04:46:27,660 What is your opinion on this particular business as, you know, 2975 04:46:29,740 --> 04:46:35,940 expert in this area, as well as, I mean, also put the same question to our city planner 2976 04:46:36,720 --> 04:46:41,240 because, you know, that's why she's here, you know, we, we just depend on our staff 2977 04:46:41,240 --> 04:46:46,940 to make decisions and recommendations to us to what's to do with the best for Barshton. 2978 04:46:48,140 --> 04:46:53,180 With all fairness, Mayor, our city planner doesn't have an opinion on this one. 2979 04:46:53,540 --> 04:46:56,260 Let me jump in. 2980 04:46:56,260 --> 04:46:58,200 Me and Brad can talk about this a little bit. 2981 04:46:59,460 --> 04:47:04,040 I wanted to add, these are just two of the facilities that have reached out to us 2982 04:47:04,040 --> 04:47:05,300 that have received letters. 2983 04:47:06,180 --> 04:47:09,660 There's also another facility over there, which is a MPM. 2984 04:47:10,180 --> 04:47:12,740 They're a larger corporation, so we haven't heard from them. 2985 04:47:12,800 --> 04:47:14,480 So I don't know what they're planning on doing. 2986 04:47:14,480 --> 04:47:24,060 But basically, any facility that sells the CRV product within a half a mile, Walmart is going to get hit with fines and different things until they start accepting the CRV. 2987 04:47:25,160 --> 04:47:34,560 So, I think what happened was, is what put this all on the radar was whenever the facility in the state or brothers shopping center, whenever they had a business. 2988 04:47:35,160 --> 04:47:39,560 That's a large corporation that was doing the recycling in Staterburg's shopping center. 2989 04:47:40,400 --> 04:47:45,000 Whenever that one went out of business, then I believe Calre's cycle for, you know, 2990 04:47:45,000 --> 04:47:48,600 because it was a large corporation and they pretty much left California. 2991 04:47:49,300 --> 04:47:55,160 So whenever this happened, I believe that's why super Walmart and all those places got put on the map, 2992 04:47:55,480 --> 04:48:00,020 and that's why these are businesses that are getting targeted for this. 2993 04:48:01,880 --> 04:48:18,920 Do I, the only other option is, is someone's going to have to put a facility somewhere, and that's the whole thing, so you either, and the other facilities do not want to have these at their location, because for example, parties meet, they're regulated by the health department. 2994 04:48:20,700 --> 04:48:29,460 Whenever you have these types of operations, sometimes you know there's just other things that are involved with it, but they just don't want to have that at their facility because they don't have space for it. 2995 04:48:29,460 --> 04:48:38,100 We want to allow them to just put containers out in the middle of their parking lot like, so this facility that is being proposed I think is a good compromise. 2996 04:48:39,900 --> 04:48:48,000 Instead of putting in the middle of the parking lot, so I mean, there's it's ultimately up to council and what they see is the best fit for our community. 2997 04:48:48,800 --> 04:48:52,020 But I think it's a good compromise of the location. 2998 04:48:53,100 --> 04:48:56,300 You can't make everybody happy and that's the ultimate. 2999 04:48:56,460 --> 04:48:58,000 That's the ultimate thing here. 3000 04:48:58,000 --> 04:49:03,420 Well, and true, let me let me chime in here, but as staff members, we took this complaining 3001 04:49:03,420 --> 04:49:09,300 commission and recommended it. So we came up with the conditions. We outlined all the 3002 04:49:09,300 --> 04:49:13,860 problems that we thought we're going to be with the site, and then we conditioned it accordingly. 3003 04:49:14,660 --> 04:49:22,920 So we took that the planning commission with our recommendation to approve it. Okay. Okay, thank you, 3004 04:49:22,920 --> 04:49:33,280 Thank you, Brett Murl, for clarifying that and as well as stating that you took it to the 3005 04:49:33,280 --> 04:49:40,680 planning commission as the experts on this particular new business that's willing to invest 3006 04:49:40,680 --> 04:49:47,660 and it helped improve our community and you recommended it and obviously your recommendation 3007 04:49:47,660 --> 04:49:54,140 wasn't embraced or embraced or for like a better term, the value at the time. Therefore, 3008 04:49:54,260 --> 04:50:00,960 this applicant is now submitted to the governor's and we're in a position to do what's best 3009 04:50:00,960 --> 04:50:07,360 for Barstho. And then we just heard from our talk, Bill in the official, and he is clearly stated 3010 04:50:07,360 --> 04:50:12,080 that it is a suitable compromise. 3011 04:50:14,220 --> 04:50:16,640 So, you know, known afters and factors and the penalty, 3012 04:50:16,640 --> 04:50:22,860 being a part of existing businesses that are doing well and that have not made a decision 3013 04:50:22,860 --> 04:50:27,280 to leave our town who have not given up. I've seen the best inches of doing what's best 3014 04:50:27,280 --> 04:50:33,200 for personal. It sounds like to me. This is the new business that can mean the need that's necessary 3015 04:50:33,200 --> 04:50:41,440 and important. Jessica reads, letify the trash situation with recycling and online in 3016 04:50:41,440 --> 04:50:42,580 in our opening presentation. 3017 04:50:43,800 --> 04:50:46,260 So based on Jessica Wade and her presentation 3018 04:50:46,800 --> 04:50:48,880 with recycling and movement for it, 3019 04:50:49,120 --> 04:50:51,720 based on you being an expert in this area, 3020 04:50:52,340 --> 04:50:54,560 did all the things to mitigate the reality 3021 04:50:54,560 --> 04:51:01,760 of having a problem and it's no better than me. 3022 04:51:02,160 --> 04:51:03,280 I mean, this is no better than me. 3023 04:51:03,560 --> 04:51:04,880 This is how the question for staff. 3024 04:51:05,120 --> 04:51:05,640 Good for business. 3025 04:51:07,240 --> 04:51:09,340 Yes, Councilman, Councilman Soma. 3026 04:51:09,900 --> 04:51:16,920 Yes, Ms. Marl, could you have been back the map of the property that we're looking at approving? 3027 04:51:18,100 --> 04:51:23,760 And my question is going to be on the one letter we have complaint. 3028 04:51:27,950 --> 04:51:31,450 You know, not that one, but the, I'd like to go with them. 3029 04:51:32,150 --> 04:51:33,210 Yeah, I mean, to go there. 3030 04:51:33,950 --> 04:51:34,050 Yeah. 3031 04:51:34,050 --> 04:51:40,550 Yeah. Yes. Okay. So the one letter of complaint, it gives an address on East Main Street, 3032 04:51:40,710 --> 04:51:45,590 which would make him a neighbor, but you're saying the only residents are up on armor play. 3033 04:51:46,170 --> 04:51:49,870 Yeah. That's one right. Now there's there's one direct right there. Right there. 3034 04:51:49,870 --> 04:51:53,830 Right there. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So the one on the one on Main Street, 3035 04:51:53,970 --> 04:51:58,230 don't want the one cut on the letter complaining. Okay. So is that a residence? 3036 04:51:58,610 --> 04:52:02,890 That right there is actually the tow yard facility. Okay.

We're going to go to the agenda item 24. 3121 04:57:56,550 --> 04:58:02,470 The President or this agenda item is CD Attorney Matthew Summers. 3122 04:58:04,420 --> 04:58:06,620 We need to get there. 3123 04:58:06,880 --> 04:58:08,680 There she is, Council member of the Senate. 3124 04:58:09,780 --> 04:58:16,460 I pause there to give her a chance to return, so this is item number 24, which is the proposed 3125 04:58:16,460 --> 04:58:18,060 city administrator ordinance. 3126 04:58:18,680 --> 04:58:22,740 I'll provide a very brief report mindful that all I'm sure have read the report. 3127 04:58:22,740 --> 04:58:50,300 This is the ordinance that the council, consider the question of how to restructure if at all the city manager position into a different approach at the meeting in January, not the seventh, the one after that, the 21st and the council provided direction to me to draft a city administrator ordinance, I recognize it was a divided vote. 3128 04:58:51,160 --> 04:58:57,240 But acting as directed by the majority, I prepared the attached proposed ordinance which 3129 04:58:57,240 --> 04:59:01,580 re-forms the position of city manager to instead be city administrator. 3130 04:59:02,140 --> 04:59:07,860 It provides in summary that anywhere in the code, that is the varsity of municipal code, 3131 04:59:08,640 --> 04:59:12,660 that whether the term city manager is used shall be reformed to be city administrator. 3132 04:59:13,420 --> 04:59:18,500 The powers and duties will be the same as the city manager with several key exceptions, 3133 04:59:18,500 --> 04:59:28,500 including that the city council will have the power to hire and discipline and terminate 3134 04:59:29,120 --> 04:59:32,920 city department heads as defined by the city's personnel policies and procedures. 3135 04:59:33,720 --> 04:59:39,920 The city administrator would have the power to hire, discipline, and terminate all other city employees. 3136 04:59:39,920 --> 04:59:45,660 minus, of course, the elected officials, myself, city attorney, and the elected city 3137 04:59:45,660 --> 04:59:46,900 treacher in city clerk. 3138 04:59:48,900 --> 04:59:53,920 The election's predictions period that existed previously in 90 days would be adjusted 3139 04:59:53,920 --> 04:59:55,980 It's gonna be 30 days, that is... 3140 05:00:00,000 --> 05:00:12,340 This is the provision that provides that the city administrator cannot be removed. Currently, it's city manager cannot be removed 90 days after an election. That would be revised to be 30 days after an election. 3141 05:00:13,140 --> 05:00:22,620 The existing provisions requiring a hearing and certain specified notices to the city manager upon his or her removal would be deleted. 3142 05:00:22,620 --> 05:00:40,940 And instead, the city council could remove a city administrator at any time provided, of course, they act in compliance with the putable law, including a recorded majority vote of the mayor and whole council in a doing notice council meeting. 3143 05:00:41,780 --> 05:00:49,940 The city council would be permitted to consider the aforementioned city department had employment actions in a closed session. 3144 05:00:49,940 --> 05:01:07,920 With the note that there are several other requires at the employees option to consider specific charges to be in open session and otherwise adjustments throughout to adjust the balance of power between the city council and the city administrator to favor the city council. 3145 05:01:07,920 --> 05:01:17,040 the entire approach is lawful because government code section 34851 at sec 3146 05:01:17,040 --> 05:01:22,040 allow the city council to adopt the council manager form of government 3147 05:01:22,040 --> 05:01:26,620 as has currently in place and has been for some time. 3148 05:01:27,220 --> 05:01:33,720 The government code also allows the city council to not select the city manager form of government 3149 05:01:33,720 --> 05:01:50,780 And instead, the council, the default would be what's often called the city administrator form of government and operates under government protection 30505 provided that the city council would be the one to appoint the city's department heads. 3150 05:01:50,780 --> 05:02:04,980 Last, I'll note that department heads would be defined by the council at present using the adopted 2022 to through 2022 by annual budget. 3151 05:02:05,600 --> 05:02:17,340 Department heads would be the commitment director, the finance director, the fire chief, the police chief, the assistant city manager which would be reformed to be assistant city administrator. 3152 05:02:17,340 --> 05:02:27,480 Obviously, all of those positions minus the fire chief and the police chief are vacant, so it would fall to this to the council where this ordinance to be adopted to decide 3153 05:02:27,480 --> 05:02:35,140 A, which of those positions to maintain and be if maintained would have the power to affirm 3154 05:02:36,200 --> 05:02:42,740 Promotion or hiring of persons in those positions upon the recommendation of the city administrator. 3155 05:02:43,680 --> 05:02:45,480 With that, I am available for questions. 3156 05:02:46,820 --> 05:02:47,860 Thank you. 3157 05:02:47,860 --> 05:02:50,260 Thank you very much for that Matthew Summers. 3158 05:02:51,160 --> 05:02:57,480 I'll at this point in time I'll open the floor for a discussion from the governor's, and I will start with 3159 05:02:59,380 --> 05:03:01,380 May I put you on the ropes? 3160 05:03:06,110 --> 05:03:11,390 I've had a chance to review the ordinance proposed ordinance, so I really don't have any comment. 3161 05:03:12,190 --> 05:03:18,530 You know, it's pretty straightforward, and it's similar to what we're going, you know, if it's approved 3162 05:03:18,530 --> 05:03:25,990 we were doing this in 2013 if I'm not mistaken it was already being done and it's kind of 3163 05:03:25,990 --> 05:03:33,310 similar to what we do in my opinion it would be like what we do with K through 12 and even at 3164 05:03:33,310 --> 05:03:39,110 the college district that everything would go through their the border trustees so it's familiar 3165 05:03:39,110 --> 05:03:46,350 to me on how the structure would be so I think that it gives it provides good checks and balances 3166 05:03:47,150 --> 05:03:57,390 to give the council the latitude to also be involved with some of that decision making. So it's pretty 3167 05:03:57,390 --> 05:04:01,450 straight forward. So that's pretty much all I have to say about this. Thank you. We have to return 3168 05:04:01,450 --> 05:04:09,710 our referrals. Councilwoman Rowan Cruz, you're the one that introduced this initially. I don't 3169 05:04:09,710 --> 05:04:12,610 I see the work Merlin cruise. 3170 05:04:13,670 --> 05:04:16,170 I do have just a couple of questions. 3171 05:04:17,090 --> 05:04:22,790 I am looking at Section 2.08.030. 3172 05:04:23,650 --> 05:04:25,170 Council member eligibility. 3173 05:04:27,590 --> 05:04:32,290 And so my question is actually to our city attorney. 3174 05:04:33,150 --> 05:04:38,510 Is that something that's new or has that always been in our code? 3175 05:04:41,740 --> 05:04:46,500 Council member eligibility has always been in the code in the ordinance and this is for those 3176 05:04:46,500 --> 05:04:55,540 following along on page 360 of the packet section 20803O. All of the text here that is straight 3177 05:04:55,540 --> 05:05:02,220 text neither underlined nor struck through is the current code. This struck through text is the 3178 05:05:02,220 --> 05:05:07,620 current code that's proposed to be deleted and the underlined is the current is new text that 3179 05:05:07,620 --> 05:05:14,140 be proposed to replace it. So the current code prohibits any person who is elected to the city council 3180 05:05:14,140 --> 05:05:20,660 after their election to be eligible for appointed a city manager for a period of their service 3181 05:05:20,660 --> 05:05:25,780 on council plus one year. That's the current code prohibition. All I propose with this ordinance 3182 05:05:25,780 --> 05:05:33,950 to update the reference to city manager to be city administrator. Okay, I mean I was never, I was never 3183 05:05:33,950 --> 05:05:35,010 really aware of that. 3184 05:05:35,250 --> 05:05:41,650 Maybe I just, obviously, didn't, didn't really research that, but when I saw that, I 3185 05:05:41,650 --> 05:05:46,570 thought a council member being eligible, I was a little thrown on that. 3186 05:05:46,630 --> 05:05:49,930 Well, the entire part of my name is, council members are not eligible. 3187 05:05:50,470 --> 05:05:50,770 Right. 3188 05:05:51,170 --> 05:05:51,630 Exactly. 3189 05:05:52,370 --> 05:05:54,170 Is that eligible during their circumstances? 3190 05:05:54,750 --> 05:05:59,450 I wanted that to, to definitely understand that. 3191 05:05:59,450 --> 05:06:02,270 Now the other and just one more question quickly. 3192 05:06:03,630 --> 05:06:16,150 The part here about 30 days to evaluate or we have 30 days and I know previously it was 90 days. 3193 05:06:16,890 --> 05:06:24,230 So is that is that I don't want to say normal or is that average for a 30 day? 3194 05:06:24,230 --> 05:06:40,210 I mean, 90 days seems a little long, but so I was wondering, 30 days, is that, is that, and you think that's an acceptable amount of time? 3195 05:06:40,830 --> 05:07:01,230 I want to chime in on that if I may. I also think that the 30 days is a short. I mean, a new council member coming in like me, 30 days to evaluate a city manager or to get rid of them. I don't even have my feet wet on knowing what the policies procedures are. 3196 05:07:01,230 --> 05:07:07,110 So I'm thinking that 30 days is kind of short, I honestly think that 90 days is fair. 3197 05:07:07,330 --> 05:07:15,170 That's three months to get to know that city manager and to do an evaluation if we want to do an evaluation. 3198 05:07:16,310 --> 05:07:16,550 Thank you. 3199 05:07:17,250 --> 05:07:17,710 May I vote? 3200 05:07:18,470 --> 05:07:18,910 No. 3201 05:07:21,970 --> 05:07:27,490 That was just something that really kind of threw me and I thought, geez, I wanted to ask on that. 3202 05:07:27,570 --> 05:07:29,930 Is that something new or has that always existed? 3203 05:07:29,930 --> 05:07:58,730 So, no, that was really, that was really only my only comment. Everything else is, as the councilman rose stated that, you know, I don't think the community realizes that we had always been a city administrative rent city and in 2013 it was changed. So, that's, we're just kind of going back to. 3204 05:07:58,730 --> 05:08:06,670 more eyes, more checks and balances, just being able to have a stay in it, it's still a majority. 3205 05:08:07,070 --> 05:08:13,570 It's still a majority vote of the council as well as the city administrator slash manager. 3206 05:08:14,630 --> 05:08:19,410 So it's not it's still a majority vote on something like this. 3207 05:08:20,270 --> 05:08:24,650 But no, that's that's my only question that that really kind of threw me a little bit. 3208 05:08:24,650 --> 05:08:43,610 Thank you. Thank you very much, Nelson and Cruz. I want to go to the point where he may I go may I ask one clarification because I didn't hear anything from Matthew Summers. The 30 days if we wanted to extend that to let's say 60 days. Would this be the time to do it if it worked, you know, to recommend that. 3209 05:08:43,610 --> 05:08:44,190 Be careful. 3210 05:08:44,510 --> 05:08:44,870 Go try. 3211 05:08:45,590 --> 05:08:52,310 If Casa wants to adjust the proposed substitution of 30 for 90 days, either keep it at 90 3212 05:08:52,310 --> 05:08:56,970 for dropping set the middle of 60, this would be the time in the motion that introduced 3213 05:08:56,970 --> 05:08:59,070 the ordinance as maybe desired. 3214 05:08:59,410 --> 05:09:02,130 The other point to answer the other line question comes over to our cruise. 3215 05:09:03,430 --> 05:09:05,550 The cities have this clause rate. 3216 05:09:05,570 --> 05:09:06,850 It varies fairly heavily. 3217 05:09:07,010 --> 05:09:08,870 I'm not sure there's a standard length. 3218 05:09:09,530 --> 05:09:16,250 I've seen anywhere between 3060 and 90 days, the wisdom of the lengths is a pure positive choice 3219 05:09:16,250 --> 05:09:19,070 I will leave to the council, but any of the three are defensible. 3220 05:09:20,150 --> 05:09:24,330 It is what's noting that there's nothing that in state law that requires on election protections 3221 05:09:24,330 --> 05:09:26,230 clause, it doesn't have to exist. 3222 05:09:26,550 --> 05:09:32,510 It's fairly common, because in most cases, councils who hired a city manager will want to 3223 05:09:32,510 --> 05:09:37,650 ensure that the decision that they've made require some of the evaluation before they can 3224 05:09:37,650 --> 05:09:45,190 under as this council has well experienced. So somewhere in that 30-60-90, all of those are 3225 05:09:45,190 --> 05:09:48,510 typical and within that choice it's really just about where the council finds it. 3226 05:09:49,810 --> 05:09:54,350 Okay, thank you very much for that Matthew Summers. I'm going to go, I'm going to move to 3227 05:09:54,350 --> 05:09:58,790 a councilman James Noble for comments then council and so on. And then if there's any further 3228 05:09:58,790 --> 05:10:02,530 discussion we'll go here and then we'll call for the councilman. So what? 3229 05:10:02,530 --> 05:10:05,190 Let me tell you something else from the noble. 3230 05:10:06,470 --> 05:10:07,750 Yes, ma'am. 3231 05:10:09,450 --> 05:10:16,350 As I read this, some of the same things that we have discussed over the last couple of 3232 05:10:16,350 --> 05:10:20,690 council meeting about this, this ordinance. 3233 05:10:21,370 --> 05:10:30,670 The ordinance that was previously on day was nothing was wrong with it. 3234 05:10:30,670 --> 05:10:39,630 Now we're changing it to the language to where the council now can make some decisions based 3235 05:10:39,630 --> 05:10:50,150 on city manager, not being able to make those decisions that he or she had in the past. 3236 05:10:50,810 --> 05:10:58,510 And I just feel that the changing the language so that council members who are elected officials 3237 05:10:58,510 --> 05:11:08,050 who have no date of the interaction with city employees will now make a decision on an employee 3238 05:11:08,850 --> 05:11:16,290 or hiring and hiring in a head of a department. I don't think that's fair. I don't agree with this 3239 05:11:16,290 --> 05:11:19,710 change, but 3240 05:11:22,660 --> 05:11:27,740 I'll leave it at that. I just don't agree with it. Thank you. Thank you very much, 3241 05:11:27,740 --> 05:11:29,760 Councilman Sola? 3242 05:11:31,480 --> 05:11:35,120 I have a couple of questions and I'll save my discussion for after motion. 3243 05:11:35,440 --> 05:11:36,800 If there's a motion in second. 3244 05:11:38,080 --> 05:11:43,960 I'm going to start with section two zero eight zero five zero temporary manager. 3245 05:11:44,880 --> 05:11:46,140 So I'm going to do these there. 3246 05:11:46,340 --> 05:11:50,880 The managers subject to approval of this and the council. 3247 05:11:56,340 --> 05:12:02,840 We'll select the department head to serve as the pro-temp. 3248 05:12:04,060 --> 05:12:05,500 So that's fine. 3249 05:12:05,820 --> 05:12:08,460 We got to have somebody not ready to go second and charge. 3250 05:12:09,200 --> 05:12:13,340 But if we go to 208070, 3251 05:12:14,480 --> 05:12:18,680 Section 18, it says in the absence of the city administrative 3252 05:12:18,680 --> 05:12:24,360 the Marin City Council, so higher or point, an employee to serve as acting in the Interim City 3253 05:12:24,360 --> 05:12:24,880 Manager. 3254 05:12:25,120 --> 05:12:25,940 It's administrative. 3255 05:12:27,480 --> 05:12:32,380 So, you can have a little bit of conflict there, and that one's under removal of the 3256 05:12:32,380 --> 05:12:33,180 City Administrator. 3257 05:12:33,280 --> 05:12:38,140 So, if we remove the administrator, we're going to have the second-in-command, taking 3258 05:12:38,140 --> 05:12:44,860 second-in-command and a council thinking, no, we've got ready to the administrator, so you're 3259 05:12:44,860 --> 05:12:45,440 not in command. 3260 05:12:45,540 --> 05:12:46,680 We're going to put somebody in command. 3261 05:12:46,680 --> 05:12:56,920 I think we need some clarification between 2, 0, 0, 0, 5, 0 and section 18 or 2, 0, 0, 7, 0, which ways are 3262 05:12:56,920 --> 05:13:02,340 going to be, do we have a second-in command or if we get rid of city administrator, then second-in 3263 05:13:02,340 --> 05:13:03,220 command is gone too. 3264 05:13:05,440 --> 05:13:14,280 That's it. Would you like to chime in on that? I have it to provide some clarity. Of course, the 3265 05:13:14,280 --> 05:13:21,740 It's intended to structure 208.050 applies in the temporary absence or disability, and 3266 05:13:21,740 --> 05:13:25,500 absence of disability that is not permanent and is expected to resolve with the return 3267 05:13:25,500 --> 05:13:30,940 of the existing currently city manager as proposed city administrator. 3268 05:13:31,800 --> 05:13:41,540 Then that situation, the number two, the second in command, would be designated and would 3269 05:13:41,540 --> 05:13:49,920 Another situation covered in 208-078, it's the complete absence of the City Administrator, 3270 05:13:50,140 --> 05:13:55,360 meaning that the position is vacant, or the person is on leave not expected to return. 3271 05:13:55,900 --> 05:14:11,520 In that case, the Council could hire an acting or an interim administrator, and we could 3272 05:14:11,520 --> 05:14:20,320 in the permanent absence at the work permanent, the permanent absence of the City Administrator, 3273 05:14:20,480 --> 05:14:24,480 the Mayor of Council shall hire or appoint City Glory to Service Acting or Interim. 3274 05:14:25,400 --> 05:14:29,600 And I recognize those a little bit of an overlap, but it's sort of because both sections require 3275 05:14:29,600 --> 05:14:39,160 consent of the council, it gives the council a little ability to select where we are, 3276 05:14:40,420 --> 05:14:55,680 and the allowance under 208.050 for the City Administrator to make an appointment allows the City Administrator to make an appointment before Council consent can be secured ensuring there's never a gap in service. 3277 05:14:57,480 --> 05:14:59,760 Thank you very much for that clarification, Matthew Summers. 3278 05:15:00,000 --> 05:15:16,340 We have a further question on that clarification. So on on stuff such an 18 where it says, okay, so it says the mayor and city council shall, that word shall hire, it doesn't mean that we have to hire within we could go outside correct. 3279 05:15:17,840 --> 05:15:29,520 Yeah, because here shall hire or appoint a city employee, that means you're required to hire someone to be a city employee, not that they have to be an existing city employee. 3280 05:15:31,420 --> 05:15:34,360 And that could be clarified further if desired. 3281 05:15:35,060 --> 05:15:40,240 Yes, I would like that. I don't want any gray areas, and that should be I think clarified. 3282 05:15:40,240 --> 05:15:46,500 So that we could be shall hire or point a person to serve as an acting or an interim. 3283 05:15:46,720 --> 05:15:49,240 That would I think make that point planer. 3284 05:15:50,060 --> 05:15:54,620 I don't I still don't think or person because a good, you know, person could say, well, 3285 05:15:54,800 --> 05:15:59,740 it person within I think that we need to clarify that we could still have that liberty to go out. 3286 05:16:00,700 --> 05:16:01,640 Outside of City Hall. 3287 05:16:01,880 --> 05:16:08,960 A person who may be a city employee or mayor may not be a city employee. 3288 05:16:08,960 --> 05:16:16,000 Yeah, may or may or may not be a city employee to serve as an active or in our interim city 3289 05:16:16,000 --> 05:16:20,720 administrator and they're on that would cover that point. 3290 05:16:21,640 --> 05:16:26,180 Thank you for that Matthew Summers with the concurrence of the council. Of course. 3291 05:16:27,420 --> 05:16:33,560 Any any any further discussion from the yes, the section to zero eight zero to zero under 3292 05:16:33,560 --> 05:16:45,640 Residency.

So we'll all look 3392 05:24:34,700 --> 05:24:39,700 for the motion as it may be said. Okay, you know what, I think that Dr. 3393 05:24:39,700 --> 05:24:47,360 heart you actually said it in where I actually wanted it again and you are correct that is 3394 05:24:47,360 --> 05:24:54,400 that section subsection 18 is talking about acting or interim city manager now I understand why you 3395 05:24:54,400 --> 05:25:00,440 put the 60 minutes there and now that Matthew has spoken about putting it into the contract it makes 3396 05:25:00,440 --> 05:25:07,160 sense that we can revise that in an actual contract for the actual permanent city manager so I'm okay 3397 05:25:07,160 --> 05:25:09,060 with the 60 minutes on the interim. 3398 05:25:10,180 --> 05:25:10,220 Thank you. 3399 05:25:10,400 --> 05:25:11,160 Thank you. 3400 05:25:12,060 --> 05:25:13,120 I'm sorry to interrupt you. 3401 05:25:13,260 --> 05:25:16,860 I'll just note the permanent provision is the 208 O20. 3402 05:25:17,760 --> 05:25:19,940 And that require that reflects state law. 3403 05:25:20,060 --> 05:25:22,480 It doesn't require residents within the city limits. 3404 05:25:23,140 --> 05:25:25,100 But it does provide for the required. 3405 05:25:25,100 --> 05:25:29,140 The required permanent city manner response time or permanent city administrator. 3406 05:25:29,540 --> 05:25:34,540 Response time to be that set by the personnel policies or a political employment contract. 3407 05:25:34,540 --> 05:25:45,460 So that last piece is being added, and that would reflect the council can negotiate how far away the city manager will live and then that's bound by the code and the contract. 3408 05:25:46,500 --> 05:25:50,120 So that creates some flexibility there under what's proposed. 3409 05:25:50,880 --> 05:25:58,540 And there'll be last piece on if I could raise it on election days just to make sure again that it's conscious choice. 3410 05:26:00,340 --> 05:26:08,520 Section 20870, Subsection 3, Power of Equipment, also adds as proposed subject to Council 3411 05:26:08,520 --> 05:26:15,260 Choice on Election Protection Section for Departments, reflecting that they're now being 3412 05:26:15,260 --> 05:26:17,260 decisions being made by City Council. 3413 05:26:17,700 --> 05:26:24,540 The question would be if you wanted to set that at the same number of days as the City 3414 05:26:24,540 --> 05:26:25,340 Minister. 3415 05:26:29,580 --> 05:26:37,300 I would like to speak on that and I think that is absolutely fair as well, but that's my opinion. 3416 05:26:37,620 --> 05:26:46,120 So, you know, I'm waiting for the consensus of council because right now we have a motion on the floor and that would be part of the motion. 3417 05:26:46,120 --> 05:26:52,040 So, if you allow me, I was a little summarizing the motion when a couple of points came up. 3418 05:26:52,380 --> 05:26:56,560 I'll re-summerize what I understood your motion to be subject to your confirmation 3419 05:26:56,560 --> 05:26:59,640 Mayor Pro Tem, Rose, and it is your motion. 3420 05:26:59,960 --> 05:27:06,420 So, it would be to introduce the ordinance adjustment to Section 20802O residents, replace 3421 05:27:06,420 --> 05:27:16,620 City Manual Administrator. Second, in section 208, 070, subsection 3, provide 90 days 3422 05:27:16,620 --> 05:27:24,840 election protection for department heads. Section 208, 070, subsection 18, that last sentence 3423 05:27:24,840 --> 05:27:35,400 would read as in the absence of the in the expected permanent absence of the City Administrator. 3424 05:27:35,400 --> 05:27:44,200 The mayor and city council shall hire or point a person who may or may not be a city employee to serve as an acting or or interim city administrator. 3425 05:27:44,880 --> 05:27:53,400 Under the provisions of sections 208 020 208 030 208 050 of this code and other applicable law. 3426 05:27:53,400 --> 05:27:55,760 and any acting or interim, 3427 05:27:55,920 --> 05:27:57,340 sitting in the hospital shall reside 3428 05:27:57,340 --> 05:27:59,160 at a location within 60 minutes, 3429 05:27:59,380 --> 05:28:00,240 stand a response time. 3430 05:28:00,340 --> 05:28:02,680 Again, that's for the acting or interim, 3431 05:28:03,320 --> 05:28:06,540 and then in subsection 208-070, 3432 05:28:06,700 --> 05:28:08,140 subsection 20, 3433 05:28:08,880 --> 05:28:11,660 to provide 90 day election protection clause 3434 05:28:11,660 --> 05:28:14,560 rather than 30 for the permanent city administrator. 3435 05:28:14,860 --> 05:28:17,740 That's what I understood to be your motion subject to your confirmation. 3436 05:28:21,130 --> 05:28:24,130 Yes, that's what I would like to propose as a motion. 3437 05:28:25,510 --> 05:28:29,150 And what that will require a second and then be appropriate for discussion. 3438 05:28:29,950 --> 05:28:31,530 I will second that. 3439 05:28:35,510 --> 05:28:36,870 Okay, now we're open for discussion. 3440 05:28:37,430 --> 05:28:38,370 Any further discussion? 3441 05:28:40,050 --> 05:28:41,030 From the governor. 3442 05:28:43,210 --> 05:28:45,630 Just a quick, just a quick question. 3443 05:28:45,690 --> 05:28:47,710 Referring to the 60 minutes. 3444 05:28:48,150 --> 05:28:55,150 Really, only time that will be used in the event of the crisis that the city manager or acting. 3445 05:28:55,150 --> 05:29:03,210 city management needs to be here but not we're not referring as a day-to-day operation 3446 05:29:03,210 --> 05:29:11,670 when back and forth to work in this net because there could be an accident on 15 or 3447 05:29:11,670 --> 05:29:19,070 whatever the case may be. You got to allow some some leeway. So I think 60 minutes is 3448 05:29:19,070 --> 05:29:24,210 a reasonable amount of time regardless where anyone is if you have to drive. 3449 05:29:26,670 --> 05:29:30,830 Okay, make sense. Yeah, definitely. Well, I, you know, when I get what you're saying, 3450 05:29:30,930 --> 05:29:35,750 but those are anomalies. And my opinion, those are anomalies. You know, a traffic accident. 3451 05:29:37,030 --> 05:29:41,530 And it's not the day to day. The day to day would be the expectation that the turnaround time, 3452 05:29:41,610 --> 05:29:47,410 but that would be in the contract of the permanent city manager, just anomaly, you know, 3453 05:29:47,590 --> 05:29:56,350 a fire on the road, an accident, bad weather just anomalies. So I think that when we get to that portion, 3454 05:29:56,350 --> 05:29:59,970 when we are hiring a permanent city manager, that would be... 3455 05:30:01,400 --> 05:30:10,800 Thank you for that Mayor Pro Tem. Does that address your concern there? Councilman Nobles? Nobles? Okay, thank you, sir. 3456 05:30:11,080 --> 05:30:18,020 Yeah, it's not fine. Any further discussion? Yes. Yes.

She brings a wealth of knowledge as 3512 05:34:14,180 --> 05:34:18,700 the others, but we're really excited that not only is she going to be a committee member, but 3513 05:34:18,700 --> 05:34:28,260 the other three applicants are going to remain very active in our forum. They bring some valuable 3514 05:34:28,260 --> 05:34:35,340 inputs, so I'm excited about that. And let me see, then we talked about our strategic plan, 3515 05:34:35,340 --> 05:34:43,320 homeless actions to teach you a plan and what I would like to re-emphasizes that every homeless 3516 05:34:43,320 --> 05:34:52,420 individual that we deal with, there's not a one case fits all. It's every individual has 3517 05:34:52,420 --> 05:34:59,840 their challenges and their goals as to what they may want to do and they may not even have the 3518 05:34:59,840 --> 05:35:06,220 capacity is to where they want to be, but we are, we are diving deeper into our plan as a 3519 05:35:06,220 --> 05:35:11,580 fluid plan, and we are going to be coming back. We have homework, each committee member, 3520 05:35:12,340 --> 05:35:18,220 because we want to dive deeper into saying, okay, where do we really want to be from here? 3521 05:35:18,260 --> 05:35:26,920 We have a plan now, let's do actions. So we're working on prioritizing what we should do next, 3522 05:35:26,920 --> 05:35:33,900 and that's in regards to funding because we need funding, we need a building, we need sustainability 3523 05:35:33,900 --> 05:35:40,280 and we also need to dive into our county resources. Partnerships are very important. So we're 3524 05:35:40,280 --> 05:35:47,800 working on that and I'm looking forward to continuing with this committee and with more partnerships 3525 05:35:48,440 --> 05:35:54,200 when COVID, when we can actually meet, we would like to meet with the local churches because they 3526 05:35:54,200 --> 05:36:01,280 have a wealth of resources as well that we would like to come together with.
