130
00:04:57,435 --> 00:04:58,102
>> Hi this is Katherine Rhodes

131
00:04:58,102 --> 00:04:58,536
and I wanted to talk on

132
00:04:58,536 --> 00:04:59,360
the last two.

133
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,360
>> Please proceed.

134
00:05:01,372 --> 00:05:01,672
You'll have two minutes.

135
00:05:01,672 --> 00:05:03,672
Okay.

136
00:05:05,343 --> 00:05:06,309
First of all for the trash fee

137
00:05:06,309 --> 00:05:08,945
you know when we voted on it we

138
00:05:08,945 --> 00:05:09,747
voted on something around

139
00:05:09,747 --> 00:05:12,949
the $20 mark and now it's going

140
00:05:12,949 --> 00:05:13,751
to, you know, 40 and pretty

141
00:05:13,751 --> 00:05:14,118
soon it's going to be 50

142
00:05:14,118 --> 00:05:14,819
something.

143
00:05:14,819 --> 00:05:18,122
So I very much think that you

144
00:05:18,122 --> 00:05:18,789
should take deal that Mike Gary

145
00:05:18,789 --> 00:05:21,189
talked about previously and

146
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:23,861
what he said is we should just

147
00:05:23,861 --> 00:05:24,395
go back to what you had on

148
00:05:24,395 --> 00:05:26,395
the ballot measure.

149
00:05:28,499 --> 00:05:29,204
That's perfect And we also

150
00:05:29,204 --> 00:05:29,934
don't need a world class tree.

151
00:05:29,934 --> 00:05:32,334
>> So Katherine is multitasking

152
00:05:34,872 --> 00:05:39,720
muted But I'm and we don't need

153
00:05:39,477 --> 00:05:40,278
I'm sorry we don't need a world

154
00:05:40,278 --> 00:05:41,120
class trash lane for students.

155
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,947
We don't need a world.

156
00:05:43,947 --> 00:05:44,649
I'm sorry.

157
00:05:44,649 --> 00:05:44,948
We don't need the world class

158
00:05:44,948 --> 00:05:46,948
trash.

159
00:05:48,786 --> 00:05:49,486
Instead we could have what we

160
00:05:49,486 --> 00:05:53,860
had before where we had one

161
00:05:54,759 --> 00:05:55,460
week we had recyclable days in

162
00:05:55,460 --> 00:05:58,496
the next week we had the green

163
00:05:58,496 --> 00:05:59,230
cans for other things.

164
00:05:59,230 --> 00:06:02,830
So I really think that you

165
00:06:03,568 --> 00:06:03,901
should go back to what you were

166
00:06:03,901 --> 00:06:04,569
before.

167
00:06:04,569 --> 00:06:04,969
We don't need a world class

168
00:06:04,969 --> 00:06:06,969
trash thing.

169
00:06:07,939 --> 00:06:08,707
We just need our trash picked

170
00:06:08,707 --> 00:06:09,642
up and we could do it.

171
00:06:09,642 --> 00:06:12,410
We could also get rid of all

172
00:06:12,410 --> 00:06:13,144
the people who go around ahead

173
00:06:13,144 --> 00:06:16,744
of time and give people tickets

174
00:06:16,948 --> 00:06:17,649
if they don't do their they

175
00:06:17,649 --> 00:06:17,915
don't do the recyclables right

176
00:06:17,915 --> 00:06:19,915
now.

177
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:22,353
So anyway, that's just such a

178
00:06:22,353 --> 00:06:23,870
big deal.

179
00:06:23,870 --> 00:06:26,687
Plus I don't think that you

180
00:06:26,958 --> 00:06:30,558
know, you guys put in motions

181
00:06:31,529 --> 00:06:32,163
to not have a mayor todd Gloria

182
00:06:32,163 --> 00:06:34,563
City Council PRESIDENT Joe

183
00:06:36,634 --> 00:06:39,340
LaCava and COUNCILMAN Rochelle

184
00:06:40,872 --> 00:06:41,505
Ella Rivera to be part of

185
00:06:41,505 --> 00:06:42,240
the you know, to actually

186
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:46,440
testify on how you came up with

187
00:06:46,511 --> 00:06:47,379
all these numbers right here.

188
00:06:47,379 --> 00:06:50,979
And so I actually think that

189
00:06:51,516 --> 00:06:51,850
it's a it's a good deal for you

190
00:06:51,850 --> 00:06:52,584
.

191
00:06:52,584 --> 00:06:56,870
And then I heard also that

192
00:06:56,870 --> 00:06:56,987
Kevin Faulkner and his group

193
00:06:56,987 --> 00:06:57,755
will not try to get rid of

194
00:06:57,755 --> 00:07:01,159
the trash fee for two years if

195
00:07:01,159 --> 00:07:01,926
you actually approve it.

196

00:07:09,330 --> 00:07:09,734
please unmute please let me

200
00:07:09,734 --> 00:07:13,334
know which item or items you

201
00:07:15,774 --> 00:07:16,474
wish to speak to the trash fee

202
00:07:16,474 --> 00:07:18,809
and then the hector trash fee

203
00:07:18,809 --> 00:07:19,244
and the selling case with that

204
00:07:19,244 --> 00:07:19,911
Hispanic guy.

205
00:07:19,911 --> 00:07:20,245
>> Okay, two minutes Please

206
00:07:20,245 --> 00:07:22,245
proceed.

207
00:07:24,820 --> 00:07:24,449
Okay.

208
00:07:24,449 --> 00:07:25,150
Okay.

209
00:07:25,150 --> 00:07:27,485
With the trash bins obviously

210
00:07:27,485 --> 00:07:28,286
Got to get back to what it well

211
00:07:28,286 --> 00:07:31,886
tell us and give out refunds

212
00:07:32,524 --> 00:07:33,258
and then also in the trash I

213
00:07:33,258 --> 00:07:36,858
would say don't have the county

214
00:07:37,262 --> 00:07:37,929
collect that money to elect a

215
00:07:37,929 --> 00:07:38,563
water bills where they can't

216
00:07:38,563 --> 00:07:42,670
take the guy's house if he

217
00:07:42,670 --> 00:07:42,701
doesn't pay the trash fee.

218
00:07:42,701 --> 00:07:43,135
So that's that's kind of

219
00:07:43,135 --> 00:07:45,135
inappropriate.

220
00:07:47,105 --> 00:07:47,405
You know, it's just it's not

221
00:07:47,405 --> 00:07:48,273
good.

222
00:07:48,273 --> 00:07:52,143
And then I want to shout out

223
00:07:52,143 --> 00:07:52,844
the couple council person

224
00:07:52,844 --> 00:07:56,444
couple you took a racial slur

225
00:07:57,281 --> 00:07:58,183
from some Mexican guy calling

226
00:07:58,183 --> 00:07:59,117
him a banned day the other day.

227
00:07:59,117 --> 00:08:01,653
I want to I want to give thanks

228
00:08:01,653 --> 00:08:02,521
for not doing nothing about it.

229
00:08:02,521 --> 00:08:05,924
You know, he took he took one

230
00:08:05,924 --> 00:08:06,358
for the team and it wasn't it

231
00:08:06,358 --> 00:08:07,292
was hot.

232
00:08:07,292 --> 00:08:07,959
He was mad but did I think was

233
00:08:07,959 --> 00:08:10,896
a racial slur or something.

234
00:08:10,896 --> 00:08:11,763
Anyway, it could be just a

235
00:08:11,763 --> 00:08:15,363
badge of courage And then that

236
00:08:15,934 --> 00:08:16,668
was just on the side there And

237
00:08:16,668 --> 00:08:20,572
then the on the when you settle

238
00:08:20,572 --> 00:08:21,306
cases with people like the last

239
00:08:21,306 --> 00:08:22,140
time you saw that the black kid

240
00:08:22,140 --> 00:08:24,810
got shot and I think you should

241
00:08:24,810 --> 00:08:25,544
took that to trial because I

242
00:08:25,544 --> 00:08:28,544
think you guys were intimidated

243
00:08:29,547 --> 00:08:30,415
We have another race or

244
00:08:30,415 --> 00:08:34,219
something And if we did it if

245
00:08:34,219 --> 00:08:34,920
he got off on it or you know,

246
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:35,454
we had to do something else

247
00:08:35,454 --> 00:08:35,889
because that's just

248
00:08:35,889 --> 00:08:37,889
intimidating.

249
00:08:39,391 --> 00:08:39,758
You guys were intimidated by

250
00:08:39,758 --> 00:08:40,659
that guy.

251
00:08:40,659 --> 00:08:44,530
He was a 16 year old black kid

252
00:08:44,530 --> 00:08:45,164
with a gun.

253
00:08:45,164 --> 00:08:47,564
He ran the corner.

254
00:08:49,535 --> 00:08:50,202
The cop was he was We tell our

255
00:08:50,202 --> 00:08:50,835
cops to run toward the fire.

256
00:08:50,835 --> 00:08:53,835
Maybe you still are cops.

257
00:08:54,273 --> 00:08:54,706
Just sit back and watch and see

258
00:08:54,706 --> 00:08:55,273
what happens.

259
00:08:55,273 --> 00:08:55,641
He told the kid to run

260
00:08:55,641 --> 00:08:57,641
the fire.

261
00:08:58,576 --> 00:08:59,344
He runs.

262
00:08:59,344 --> 00:08:59,745
You got to show cops your

263
00:08:59,745 --> 00:09:00,479
hands, man.

264
00:09:00,479 --> 00:09:03,480
If you run it from a crime

265
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:03,715
scene like we need to teach

266
00:09:03,715 --> 00:09:04,415
black kids that like junior

267
00:09:04,415 --> 00:09:07,653
high if you're running from a

268
00:09:07,653 --> 00:09:08,353
crime scene gunshot to fire,

269
00:09:08,353 --> 00:09:11,953
show the people your hands And

270
00:09:12,858 --> 00:09:13,158
if you got a gun you might get

271
00:09:13,158 --> 00:09:14,126
shot.

272
00:09:14,126 --> 00:09:18,297
So he's old enough to have a

273
00:09:18,297 --> 00:09:21,297
gun and nobody's ever busted

274
00:09:22,367 --> 00:09:23,350
the guys that fired the shots.

275
00:09:23,350 --> 00:09:23,702
Where are those guys?

276
00:09:23,702 --> 00:09:24,200
I never heard nothing about

277
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:25,537
that.

278
00:09:25,537 --> 00:09:25,971
So anyway, dope intimidated by

279
00:09:25,971 --> 00:09:27,971
the lawsuits.

280
00:09:31,310 --> 00:09:32,244
>> Thank you for my comments.

281
00:09:32,244 --> 00:09:35,848
Our next speaker is the it is

282
00:09:35,848 --> 00:09:36,548
the original Please proceed and

283
00:09:36,548 --> 00:09:39,548
indicate which items you'll be

284
00:09:40,419 --> 00:09:43,622
speaking to as many of them as

285
00:09:43,622 --> 00:09:44,220
I can in three minutes.

286
00:09:44,220 --> 00:09:44,490
>> Okay.

287
00:09:44,490 --> 00:09:46,490
Please proceed.

288
00:09:48,561 --> 00:09:49,227
Your ability to make decisions

289
00:09:49,227 --> 00:09:51,627
regarding closed session is

290
00:09:53,399 --> 00:09:54,660
significantly compromised when

291
00:09:54,660 --> 00:09:56,466
you're unable to conduct

292
00:09:58,537 --> 00:10:00,937
meetings legally blatantly So

293
00:10:04,276 --> 00:10:04,877
not doing that, not having a

294
00:10:04,877 --> 00:10:07,277
quorum and then deciding

295
00:10:09,215 --> 00:10:09,982
several days later five times

296
00:10:09,982 --> 00:10:13,953
after doing it in a row that

297
00:10:13,953 --> 00:10:14,720
and potentially even more I'm

298
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:15,454
sure it was even more than I

299
00:10:15,454 --> 00:10:18,223
caught but that all of a sudden

300
00:10:18,223 --> 00:10:18,791
you need a quorum So when

301
00:10:18,791 --> 00:10:19,391
you're suddenly making

302
00:10:19,391 --> 00:10:20,920
decisions like that and

303
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,496
the reason why we're always in

304
00:10:23,496 --> 00:10:24,196
litigation is because of your

305
00:10:24,196 --> 00:10:26,196
willful negligence misconduct

306
00:10:28,680 --> 00:10:28,768
mismanage management fraud,

307
00:10:28,768 --> 00:10:29,340
waste and abuse The list goes

308
00:10:29,340 --> 00:10:31,340
on.

309
00:10:32,905 --> 00:10:33,639
I mean why are you even talking

310
00:10:33,639 --> 00:10:36,742
about these and like that We're

311
00:10:36,742 --> 00:10:37,342
doing something about this per

312
00:10:37,342 --> 00:10:37,743
scription opioid opiate

313
00:10:37,743 --> 00:10:39,743
litigation.

314
00:10:42,247 --> 00:10:42,981
It's interesting because in

315
00:10:42,981 --> 00:10:43,683
the city of San Diego drugs are

316
00:10:43,683 --> 00:10:46,719
being done on a massive scale.

317
00:10:46,719 --> 00:10:47,419
Fentanyl is being distributed

318
00:10:47,419 --> 00:10:48,287
and you know, traffic in and

319
00:10:48,287 --> 00:10:51,791
out of tent City in just

320
00:10:51,791 --> 00:10:52,525
the city.

321
00:10:52,525 --> 00:10:52,791
Police officers watch people do

322
00:10:52,791 --> 00:10:53,359
it.

323
00:10:53,359 --> 00:10:53,726
There's foil all over

324
00:10:53,726 --> 00:10:55,726
the place.

325
00:10:56,862 --> 00:10:57,162
So like you guys don't really

326
00:10:57,162 --> 00:10:57,930
care.

327
00:10:57,930 --> 00:10:58,698
You just want to make money off

328
00:10:58,698 --> 00:11:01,466
the backs of people And that's

329
00:11:01,466 --> 00:11:02,134
why you're doing this.

330
00:11:02,134 --> 00:11:04,134
Discover Financial Discover

331
00:11:06,205 --> 00:11:07,390
Card class action as well.

332
00:11:07,390 --> 00:11:07,640
Any time you guys can jump on

333
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:10,400
the bandwagon but you're

334
00:11:10,409 --> 00:11:11,110
hypocrites because you guys sit

335
00:11:11,110 --> 00:11:14,710
here and you engage in fraud

336
00:11:14,981 --> 00:11:15,848
with the people's money.

337
00:11:15,848 --> 00:11:16,516
I mean you even say you want to

338
00:11:16,516 --> 00:11:17,183
go against corporations when

339
00:11:17,183 --> 00:11:20,183
you're a corporation that is

340
00:11:20,353 --> 00:11:20,786
making the people's cost of

341
00:11:20,786 --> 00:11:21,554
living go up.

342
00:11:21,554 --> 00:11:22,221
So it's just crazy to hear

343
00:11:22,221 --> 00:11:24,891
the double speak and people

344
00:11:24,891 --> 00:11:25,558
praise you for what you're

345
00:11:25,558 --> 00:11:26,225
doing And then the constant

346
00:11:26,225 --> 00:11:28,625
litigation from tripping and

347
00:11:30,196 --> 00:11:30,796
falling or a skateboard

348
00:11:30,796 --> 00:11:33,196
incident from you know,

349
00:11:34,634 --> 00:11:35,401
the infrastructure not being up

350
00:11:35,401 --> 00:11:36,468
kept how many more of these are

351
00:11:36,468 --> 00:11:39,939
we going to have to do And even

352
00:11:39,939 --> 00:11:40,639
just like you know, drainpipes

353
00:11:40,639 --> 00:11:43,209
not being kept all the you

354
00:11:43,209 --> 00:11:43,910
know, $5 billion that you guys

355
00:11:43,910 --> 00:11:46,310
need for storm infrastructure?

356
00:11:48,514 --> 00:11:49,315
It's pretty ridiculous because

357
00:11:49,315 --> 00:11:50,160
it's just like you just you

358
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:52,652
know, rob the people blind so

359
00:11:52,652 --> 00:11:53,286
that we can not only get into

360
00:11:53,286 --> 00:11:53,953
litigation because of your

361
00:11:53,953 --> 00:11:56,953
negligence but also do other

362
00:11:57,624 --> 00:11:57,924
things like you know, the trash

363
00:11:57,924 --> 00:11:58,691
thing.

364
00:11:58,691 --> 00:12:02,291
You know what you did is

365
00:12:03,620 --> 00:12:03,696
constitutionally illegal but

366
00:12:03,696 --> 00:12:04,290
you guys don't uphold that

367
00:12:04,290 --> 00:12:04,731
anyway.

368
00:12:04,731 --> 00:12:05,164
I don't even know why you guys

369
00:12:05,164 --> 00:12:07,164
take an oath.

370
00:12:07,567 --> 00:12:08,267
It's pretty crazy because right

371
00:12:08,267 --> 00:12:08,935
in your face you blatantly do

372
00:12:08,935 --> 00:12:11,935
things on people's face and

373
00:12:12,805 --> 00:12:13,439
you're like Yeah, it's like you

374
00:12:13,439 --> 00:12:14,173
I'm going to do it.

375
00:12:14,173 --> 00:12:16,475
It's just not like that's how

376
00:12:16,475 --> 00:12:17,143
brazen you guys are.

377
00:12:17,143 --> 00:12:17,710
And then that leads to

378
00:12:17,710 --> 00:12:18,278
litigation which cost

379
00:12:18,278 --> 00:12:20,678
the people more money.

380
00:12:21,614 --> 00:12:22,215
So hopefully at some point you

381
00:12:22,215 --> 00:12:22,882
guys are going to course

382
00:12:22,882 --> 00:12:25,819
correct and quit engaging in

383
00:12:25,819 --> 00:12:26,519
like that And you know instead

384
00:12:26,519 --> 00:12:29,519
of engaging in this litigation

385
00:12:30,290 --> 00:12:31,240
why don't you go ahead settle

386
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:31,757
with the person and then course

387
00:12:31,757 --> 00:12:35,261
correct and fix what you messed

388
00:12:35,261 --> 00:12:35,962
up with with the whole trash

389
00:12:35,962 --> 00:12:36,628
thing And you know, even going

390
00:12:36,628 --> 00:12:39,628
into the fees here with

391
00:12:40,133 --> 00:12:40,900
the water resources board like

392
00:12:40,900 --> 00:12:44,500
you guys just cannot be trusted

393
00:12:44,971 --> 00:12:45,338
with anything, not even

394
00:12:45,338 --> 00:12:45,972
children.

395
00:12:45,972 --> 00:12:48,775
And that's what's so sad.

396
00:12:48,775 --> 00:12:49,576
It's like I mean just from

397
00:12:49,576 --> 00:12:52,311
the least to the most you guys

398
00:12:52,311 --> 00:12:54,311
are negligent.

399
00:12:57,584 --> 00:12:58,218
Thank you for your comments.

400
00:12:58,218 --> 00:12:58,951
Please note that the five

401
00:12:58,951 --> 00:13:01,951
minute timer has concluded with

402
00:13:02,550 --> 00:13:02,355
two speakers left in the queue

403
00:13:02,355 --> 00:13:03,550
.

404
00:13:03,550 --> 00:13:03,389
Our next speaker is Lori

405
00:13:03,389 --> 00:13:05,389
Saldana.

406
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:07,426
Please proceed.

407
00:13:07,426 --> 00:13:10,426
>> Hello, Good morning And a

408
00:13:11,765 --> 00:13:12,465
bit of housekeeping for

409
00:13:12,465 --> 00:13:13,990
the members who arrived late.

410
00:13:13,990 --> 00:13:13,733
The mike is live when you

411
00:13:13,733 --> 00:13:16,733
arrive in the chamber and

412
00:13:17,237 --> 00:13:17,871
the public can hear your

413
00:13:17,871 --> 00:13:18,471
comments they are audible

414
00:13:18,471 --> 00:13:19,139
between when the meeting

415
00:13:19,139 --> 00:13:22,139
actually starts and the time

416
00:13:22,509 --> 00:13:23,443
you enter the chamber.

417
00:13:23,443 --> 00:13:25,644
So just for I I'd like to speak

418
00:13:25,644 --> 00:13:26,179
to see us four See us seven and

419
00:13:26,179 --> 00:13:27,800
see us five please.

420
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,680
Okay Please proceed and see us

421
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:34,684
for this is a pedestrian who

422
00:13:35,210 --> 00:13:35,889
trips on a metal storm drain.

423
00:13:35,889 --> 00:13:36,589
I I have mentioned this in

424
00:13:36,589 --> 00:13:39,526
the past in my comments that

425
00:13:39,526 --> 00:13:40,193
the hazards presented to

426
00:13:40,193 --> 00:13:40,894
residents of San Diego from

427
00:13:40,894 --> 00:13:43,894
tripping and falling are not

428
00:13:44,664 --> 00:13:45,298
just inconveniences and not

429
00:13:45,298 --> 00:13:45,665
just monetary problems for

430
00:13:45,665 --> 00:13:47,665
the city.

431
00:13:49,102 --> 00:13:49,836
They can be life threatening

432
00:13:49,836 --> 00:13:50,637
And I speak from the experience

433
00:13:50,637 --> 00:13:53,774
of a member of my own family

434
00:13:53,774 --> 00:13:54,474
who tripped just around

435
00:13:54,474 --> 00:13:58,740
the corner from city Hall was

436
00:13:58,911 --> 00:13:59,612
injured but not it was not

437
00:13:59,612 --> 00:14:00,347
anticipated that the injuries

438
00:14:00,347 --> 00:14:03,347
would would eventually kill her

439
00:14:03,783 --> 00:14:04,485
within a few months And that is

440
00:14:04,485 --> 00:14:05,251
what happened And that was my

441
00:14:05,251 --> 00:14:08,251
mother And it's hard to

442
00:14:08,555 --> 00:14:09,890
celebrate Mother's Day with

443
00:14:09,890 --> 00:14:09,923
that in my mind.

444
00:14:09,923 --> 00:14:12,859
But she tripped and fell on

445
00:14:12,859 --> 00:14:13,527
the broken sidewalk and

446
00:14:13,527 --> 00:14:14,270
the severity of her injuries

447
00:14:14,270 --> 00:14:16,270
were not apparent.

448
00:14:17,830 --> 00:14:18,598
They treated the most difficult

449
00:14:18,598 --> 00:14:21,598
When she was bleeding profusely

450
00:14:22,669 --> 00:14:23,403
They failed to notice some

451
00:14:23,403 --> 00:14:24,370
other injuries that contributed

452
00:14:24,370 --> 00:14:24,337
to her death a few months

453
00:14:24,337 --> 00:14:26,337
later.

454
00:14:27,307 --> 00:14:28,800
So these are not just

455
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:28,842
theoretical In my case when I

456
00:14:28,842 --> 00:14:32,442
see these cases these are very

457
00:14:32,446 --> 00:14:35,446
real Regarding Mary Brown and

458
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:37,750
the case on solid waste, thank

459
00:14:37,750 --> 00:14:38,551
you Mike Aguirre for taking

460
00:14:38,551 --> 00:14:41,488
this up and bringing justice to

461
00:14:41,488 --> 00:14:42,256
ratepayers.

462
00:14:42,256 --> 00:14:42,956
The city has a history of

463
00:14:42,956 --> 00:14:45,356
overcharging rate payers when

464
00:14:45,859 --> 00:14:46,726
it comes to basic necessities

465
00:14:46,726 --> 00:14:47,394
and it is one reason so many

466
00:14:47,394 --> 00:14:49,794
especially older adults are

467
00:14:51,310 --> 00:14:51,798
losing housing because they

468
00:14:51,798 --> 00:14:52,990
simply can't keep up with these

469
00:14:52,990 --> 00:14:52,800
bills.

470
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:55,200
In 2005 the city was

471
00:14:56,303 --> 00:14:56,869
investigated for financial

472
00:14:56,869 --> 00:14:57,504
impropriety and it was

473
00:14:57,504 --> 00:14:59,504
determined residents were

474
00:15:01,740 --> 00:15:01,675
overcharged for basic water

475
00:15:01,675 --> 00:15:04,750
services in violation of

476
00:15:05,712 --> 00:15:06,113
the state's revolving fund loan

477
00:15:06,113 --> 00:15:06,713
agreements.

478
00:15:06,713 --> 00:15:07,581
So this is nothing new.

479
00:15:07,581 --> 00:15:10,984
The city of San Diego has a

480
00:15:10,984 --> 00:15:11,685
long history of putting

481
00:15:11,685 --> 00:15:12,419
the burden of higher rates on

482
00:15:12,419 --> 00:15:16,123
the back of those who can least

483
00:15:16,123 --> 00:15:16,824
afford them as opposed to

484
00:15:16,824 --> 00:15:19,224
charging industries and others

485
00:15:21,427 --> 00:15:22,129
that operate for a profit a

486
00:15:22,129 --> 00:15:25,129
fair amount and that includes

487
00:15:26,367 --> 00:15:27,100
water, trash and electricity

488
00:15:27,100 --> 00:15:27,701
things that every resident

489
00:15:27,701 --> 00:15:31,238
needs and we cannot get around

490
00:15:31,238 --> 00:15:32,390
paying for So I believe that

491
00:15:32,390 --> 00:15:35,342
this is related to see us five

492
00:15:35,342 --> 00:15:36,900
the state water resource

493
00:15:36,900 --> 00:15:36,810
Control Board and this case

494
00:15:36,810 --> 00:15:40,410
again the city has a long

495
00:15:40,915 --> 00:15:41,582
history of these disputes

496
00:15:41,582 --> 00:15:43,982
between the state regulatory

497
00:15:45,819 --> 00:15:46,520
agencies and the fees and I

498
00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:50,120
welcome and audit I welcome a

499
00:15:50,558 --> 00:15:50,900
very thorough audit of the city

500
00:15:50,900 --> 00:15:51,625
.

501
00:15:51,625 --> 00:15:52,326
i realize as a result of

502
00:15:52,326 --> 00:15:55,326
the cruel report from 20 years

503
00:15:55,562 --> 00:15:56,263
ago that determined numerous

504
00:15:56,263 --> 00:15:59,263
improprieties when it came to

505
00:16:00,668 --> 00:16:01,368
city finances that periodically

506
00:16:01,368 --> 00:16:04,368
I think every quarter century

507
00:16:05,539 --> 00:16:06,206
or so having an outside auditor

508
00:16:06,206 --> 00:16:06,907
go through the city's books

509
00:16:06,907 --> 00:16:09,877
would be welcome And I hope

510
00:16:09,877 --> 00:16:10,611
Mike Aguirre would consider

511
00:16:10,611 --> 00:16:14,211
that as part of this settlement

512
00:16:14,581 --> 00:16:14,915
You're going to go into closed

513
00:16:14,915 --> 00:16:15,583
session.

514
00:16:15,583 --> 00:16:18,583
These are cases that sadly

515
00:16:19,860 --> 00:16:19,754
should be transparent, should

516
00:16:19,754 --> 00:16:20,454
be discussed in front of

517
00:16:20,454 --> 00:16:23,957
the public if not the terms of

518
00:16:23,957 --> 00:16:24,658
the litigation then at least

519
00:16:24,658 --> 00:16:25,292
how you came to your decision

520
00:16:25,292 --> 00:16:25,760
making process and how you

521
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:27,760
missed the mark.

522
00:16:29,830 --> 00:16:32,830
So badly in charging ratepayers

523
00:16:33,834 --> 00:16:34,668
a fair amount.

524
00:16:34,668 --> 00:16:37,668
Thank you for those comments.

525
00:16:38,372 --> 00:16:39,600
Our next speaker is color with

526
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:41,406
the last four digits 8700.

527
00:16:43,944 --> 00:16:44,612
Please proceed and please state

528
00:16:44,612 --> 00:16:47,612
which class session item or

529
00:16:52,453 --> 00:16:56,530
items you wish to speak to.

530
00:16:58,192 --> 00:16:58,526
>> Thank you and welcome

531
00:16:58,526 --> 00:16:59,359
aboard.

532
00:16:59,359 --> 00:17:01,362
Joyce and I will speak on all

533
00:17:01,362 --> 00:17:01,729
of them.

534
00:17:01,729 --> 00:17:03,729
Okay?

535
00:17:06,934 --> 00:17:07,868
Please proceed.

536
00:17:07,868 --> 00:17:11,468
See as one pharmacy's in a

537
00:17:11,839 --> 00:17:14,839
lumped together with a fiesta

538
00:17:15,443 --> 00:17:16,144
and I'll say thank you for

539
00:17:16,144 --> 00:17:19,144
opting into the fight against

540
00:17:21,415 --> 00:17:24,415
big company power for us.

541
00:17:25,653 --> 00:17:26,420
Three Skateboarding Safety

542
00:17:26,420 --> 00:17:29,420
first and parental love and

543
00:17:31,125 --> 00:17:34,725
guidance See for a trip and

544
00:17:36,300 --> 00:17:39,300
fall Deer Public self advocacy

545
00:17:39,534 --> 00:17:43,134
and so safety as six storm

546
00:17:44,272 --> 00:17:47,872
drain pipe sinkhole I am very

547
00:17:48,609 --> 00:17:49,477
concerned about the leeway that

548
00:17:49,477 --> 00:17:53,770
was spoken about at the Budget

549
00:17:53,447 --> 00:17:54,415
Review committee meetings last

550
00:17:54,415 --> 00:17:58,615
week and now we will switch to

551
00:17:58,853 --> 00:18:01,853
the discussion that was consent

552
00:18:02,557 --> 00:18:03,324
that I just did so see as seven

553
00:18:03,324 --> 00:18:06,324
which is solid waste management

554
00:18:07,195 --> 00:18:10,195
fee Please be very diligent

555
00:18:12,567 --> 00:18:16,767
about any fees and how they are

556
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:20,508
applied be as five which is

557
00:18:20,508 --> 00:18:24,679
the if the c w a and the city

558
00:18:24,679 --> 00:18:28,279
and the other the state thing

559
00:18:29,170 --> 00:18:30,840
Good to see a partnership with

560
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:34,322
the c w a another c issue here

561
00:18:34,322 --> 00:18:34,956
yet on a state level it's

562
00:18:34,956 --> 00:18:37,356
regulatory so perhaps it's

563
00:18:38,592 --> 00:18:39,294
going to be a tough fight with

564
00:18:39,294 --> 00:18:42,894
the letter of the law involved

565
00:18:43,998 --> 00:18:44,899
so blessings on that item Now a

566
00:18:44,899 --> 00:18:47,836
question I think that covers it

567
00:18:47,836 --> 00:18:48,603
all.

568
00:18:48,603 --> 00:18:51,603
Question for you PRESIDENT On

569
00:18:52,941 --> 00:18:53,708
the consent agenda compared to

570
00:18:53,708 --> 00:18:57,908
how you usually do it at city

571
00:18:57,979 --> 00:18:58,680
council meetings can you ask

572
00:18:58,680 --> 00:18:59,414
the question are you supposed

573
00:18:59,414 --> 00:19:02,183
to ask the question excuse that

574
00:19:02,183 --> 00:19:03,510
word?

575
00:19:03,510 --> 00:19:06,651
Does anyone want to pull any

576
00:19:07,689 --> 00:19:08,523
item off consent?

577
00:19:08,523 --> 00:19:09,224
So I don't know if there's a

578
00:19:09,224 --> 00:19:11,624
different protocol for closed

579
00:19:12,627 --> 00:19:13,361
session consent but I don't

580
00:19:13,361 --> 00:19:13,928
remember through the years that

581
00:19:13,928 --> 00:19:16,928
we ever had consent on

582
00:19:17,699 --> 00:19:18,400
the closed session but for some

583
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:19,670
reason it's popping up into my

584
00:19:19,670 --> 00:19:21,467
consciousness now that it's

585
00:19:22,971 --> 00:19:23,638
there and I'm a little unclear

586
00:19:23,638 --> 00:19:26,638
I should probably study that

587
00:19:27,409 --> 00:19:27,708
But in any case thank you so

588
00:19:27,708 --> 00:19:28,509
much.

589
00:19:28,509 --> 00:19:31,509
Thank you City tv for

590
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:32,981

591
00:19:32,981 --> 00:19:36,581
calming music that's on the tv

592
00:19:37,180 --> 00:19:37,786
screen.

593
00:19:37,786 --> 00:19:38,553
Usually it's not that soothing

594
00:19:38,553 --> 00:19:42,357
and calming so keep that up And

595
00:19:42,357 --> 00:19:43,910
I had something else to say.

596
00:19:43,910 --> 00:19:43,458
Well, it doesn't want to hang

597
00:19:43,458 --> 00:19:45,458
in there.

598
00:19:46,728 --> 00:19:47,295

1042
00:45:37,950 --> 00:45:38,685
I'm here in support of our bid

1043
00:45:38,685 --> 00:45:39,510
budget and I also wanted to say

1044
00:45:39,510 --> 00:45:41,510
thank you.

1045
00:45:42,688 --> 00:45:43,355
Last week you all showed real

1046
00:45:43,355 --> 00:45:44,560
support for small businesses

1047
00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:47,360
and arts and culture and that

1048
00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:48,940
didn't go unnoticed.

1049
00:45:48,940 --> 00:45:48,761
I'm hoping that these programs

1050
00:45:48,761 --> 00:45:52,361
make their way into the next

1051
00:45:52,699 --> 00:45:53,433
version of the budget with

1052
00:45:53,433 --> 00:45:54,133
the support you all have shown.

1053
00:45:54,133 --> 00:45:57,733
Programs like asb and Arts and

1054
00:45:58,204 --> 00:45:58,571
Culture funding are not extras

1055
00:45:58,571 --> 00:45:59,338
for Aapis.

1056
00:45:59,338 --> 00:46:00,600
They are part of how we drive

1057
00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:02,406
business into our districts.

1058
00:46:02,609 --> 00:46:03,242
Support the small businesses

1059
00:46:03,242 --> 00:46:05,642
and keep our neighborhoods

1060
00:46:06,679 --> 00:46:07,346
active When our districts are

1061
00:46:07,346 --> 00:46:08,140
working, businesses see more

1062
00:46:08,140 --> 00:46:10,414
customers more activity and

1063
00:46:11,951 --> 00:46:12,519
that also translates into

1064
00:46:12,519 --> 00:46:13,253
revenue for the city.

1065
00:46:13,253 --> 00:46:16,853
So we're asking you to continue

1066
00:46:16,990 --> 00:46:17,690
that support and make sure

1067
00:46:17,690 --> 00:46:18,424
these programs are included in

1068
00:46:18,424 --> 00:46:21,561
the next version of the budget.

1069
00:46:21,561 --> 00:46:22,610
Thank you.

1070
00:46:22,610 --> 00:46:22,562
>> Thank you.

1071
00:46:22,562 --> 00:46:24,562
Ben Nichols Hello.

1072
00:46:26,399 --> 00:46:27,990
My name is Benjamin Nichols and

1073
00:46:27,990 --> 00:46:27,667
I'm the executive director of

1074
00:46:27,667 --> 00:46:29,667
the Hillcrest Business

1075
00:46:30,503 --> 00:46:31,270
Association.

1076
00:46:31,270 --> 00:46:31,971
The bid and programs are vital

1077
00:46:31,971 --> 00:46:34,371
parts of our neighborhoods

1078
00:46:35,842 --> 00:46:36,509
economy.

1079
00:46:36,509 --> 00:46:37,143
Just this past quarter we

1080
00:46:37,143 --> 00:46:39,543
launched a still fabulous

1081
00:46:40,980 --> 00:46:41,648
promotional campaign that

1082
00:46:41,648 --> 00:46:42,315
supports businesses through

1083
00:46:42,315 --> 00:46:42,882
the many public construction

1084
00:46:42,882 --> 00:46:44,882
projects occurring in

1085
00:46:46,180 --> 00:46:46,786
the neighborhood.

1086
00:46:46,786 --> 00:46:47,487
We also hosted a mother's Day

1087
00:46:47,487 --> 00:46:50,487
raffle a shop local raffle

1088
00:46:50,890 --> 00:46:51,558
campaign and next week we will

1089
00:46:51,558 --> 00:46:51,858
host our quarterly business

1090
00:46:51,858 --> 00:46:53,858
mixer.

1091
00:46:54,794 --> 00:46:55,495
There's always things going on

1092
00:46:55,495 --> 00:46:56,129
in Hillcrest and these funds

1093
00:46:56,129 --> 00:46:59,729
are a vital part of that.

1094
00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:00,733
But what makes this program

1095
00:47:00,733 --> 00:47:01,401
exceptional and the bid program

1096
00:47:01,401 --> 00:47:04,401
at large exceptional is that

1097
00:47:04,604 --> 00:47:05,238
for every dollar you invest

1098
00:47:05,238 --> 00:47:08,140
through the bid program we

1099
00:47:08,140 --> 00:47:08,875
raise an additional $19.

1100
00:47:08,875 --> 00:47:09,676
This kind of leverage is very

1101
00:47:09,676 --> 00:47:12,612
rare and it's why these

1102
00:47:12,612 --> 00:47:13,380
programs matter.

1103
00:47:13,380 --> 00:47:14,140
Please support this program and

1104
00:47:14,140 --> 00:47:14,547
the related small business

1105
00:47:14,547 --> 00:47:16,547

1112
00:47:33,933 --> 00:47:36,670
I got chores to do around

1113
00:47:36,670 --> 00:47:37,370
downtown today so I'll do that

1114
00:47:37,370 --> 00:47:40,774
and hopefully make it back for

1115
00:47:40,774 --> 00:47:41,241
the later part of the meeting.

1116
00:47:41,241 --> 00:47:41,941
Thank you.

1117
00:47:41,941 --> 00:47:44,941
That I think I heard

1118
00:47:46,790 --> 00:47:46,780

00:47:46,780 --> 00:47:47,180

I wish him well And what he's

1122
00:47:53,420 --> 00:47:54,454
been going through Um, I.

1123
00:47:54,454 --> 00:47:58,540
I wanted to comment on this

1124
00:47:58,325 --> 00:47:59,920
item.

1125
00:47:59,920 --> 00:47:59,960
You know, it's my real hope

1126
00:47:59,960 --> 00:48:03,130
that with this item that you're

1127
00:48:03,130 --> 00:48:03,797
creating a sense of the parking

1128
00:48:03,797 --> 00:48:06,197
boards that were summarily

1129
00:48:07,834 --> 00:48:08,635
dismissed and sadly so

1130
00:48:08,635 --> 00:48:11,635
hopefully can have a place

1131
00:48:12,805 --> 00:48:13,774
within this new appropriations

1132
00:48:13,774 --> 00:48:17,974
process and that there can be a

1133
00:48:18,111 --> 00:48:21,711
clear respect and of ideas of

1134
00:48:22,649 --> 00:48:23,316
what parking needs for each

1135
00:48:23,316 --> 00:48:25,716
business district And along

1136
00:48:26,820 --> 00:48:27,621
with those needs a reminder

1137
00:48:27,621 --> 00:48:31,821
that the work I do with tec

1138
00:48:31,858 --> 00:48:32,526
accountability has been I think

1139
00:48:32,526 --> 00:48:35,526
can be really interesting to

1140
00:48:36,229 --> 00:48:36,897
business owners in and not only

1141
00:48:36,897 --> 00:48:37,531
the public safety aspect but

1142
00:48:37,531 --> 00:48:39,931
learning to balance public

1143
00:48:41,301 --> 00:48:41,969
safety with responsible

1144
00:48:41,969 --> 00:48:44,369
practices and learning that

1145
00:48:46,506 --> 00:48:47,174
combination uh that's that's

1146
00:48:47,174 --> 00:48:47,808
the sustainability that I've

1147
00:48:47,808 --> 00:48:50,808
been trying to learn and

1148
00:48:52,546 --> 00:48:53,213
understand better And I think

1149
00:48:53,213 --> 00:48:53,780
it's a community process and

1150
00:48:53,780 --> 00:48:55,780
neighborhood process.

1151
00:48:56,550 --> 00:48:57,217
It's interesting and for our

1152
00:48:57,217 --> 00:48:57,785
business community to have a

1153
00:48:57,785 --> 00:48:58,452
good sense of that and

1154
00:48:58,452 --> 00:49:00,852
understanding of not just

1155
00:49:01,522 --> 00:49:03,922
public safety but responsible

1156
00:49:05,625 --> 00:49:06,259
tech practices that's a good

1157
00:49:06,259 --> 00:49:06,793
combination That's really

1158
00:49:06,793 --> 00:49:08,793
building our future.

1159

bids across the city.

1169
00:49:29,249 --> 00:49:29,850
Thank you to city staff for

00:49:29,850 --> 00:49:30,550
your hard work on this.

1171
00:49:30,550 --> 00:49:30,884
Thank you to Council for your

1172
00:49:30,884 --> 00:49:31,552
support.

1173
00:49:31,552 --> 00:49:33,952
Small businesses are really

1174
00:49:34,210 --> 00:49:34,688
the lifeblood of our local

1175
00:49:34,688 --> 00:49:35,356
economy and so we're really

1176
00:49:35,356 --> 00:49:37,958
grateful for the support and

1177
00:49:37,958 --> 00:49:38,825
the great activities and work

1178
00:49:38,825 --> 00:49:39,526
that bids do as well as funding

1179
00:49:39,526 --> 00:49:39,926
that support small businesses

1180
00:49:39,926 --> 00:49:40,561
themselves.

1181
00:49:40,561 --> 00:49:42,663
So really appreciate your

1182
00:49:42,663 --> 00:49:43,230
support today.

1183
00:49:43,230 --> 00:49:43,630
>> Thank you.

1184
00:49:43,630 --> 00:49:44,364
Thank you.

1185
00:49:44,364 --> 00:49:45,320
I'm sorry the five minute timer

1186
00:49:45,320 --> 00:49:46,233
going to those participating

1187
00:49:46,233 --> 00:49:48,233
remotely starting with

1188
00:49:51,237 --> 00:49:52,600
the original.

1189
00:49:52,600 --> 00:49:55,600
Yeah, it's interesting to see

1190
00:49:56,443 --> 00:49:57,144
you guys.

1191
00:49:57,144 --> 00:49:57,878
Perpetrator So you care about

1192
00:49:57,878 --> 00:50:00,878
small businesses when they were

1193
00:50:00,915 --> 00:50:01,716
actively closing them down

1194
00:50:01,716 --> 00:50:02,482
during the days of covid you

1195
00:50:02,482 --> 00:50:06,820
know if they weren't, you know,

1196
00:50:07,287 --> 00:50:07,921
abiding by I mean you even got

1197
00:50:07,921 --> 00:50:08,658
rid of your own employees,

1198
00:50:08,658 --> 00:50:10,958
the police department it's like

1199
00:50:10,958 --> 00:50:11,625
and then you guys wonder why

1200
00:50:11,625 --> 00:50:12,426
things are like they are if

1201
00:50:12,426 --> 00:50:15,729
they weren't engaged in such an

1202
00:50:15,729 --> 00:50:16,464
of various acts to you know,

1203
00:50:16,464 --> 00:50:18,864
actively close small businesses

1204
00:50:20,768 --> 00:50:21,435
down and you know, pretty much

1205
00:50:21,435 --> 00:50:22,690
gaslight them at this point

1206
00:50:22,690 --> 00:50:25,500
acting as though you cared

1207
00:50:25,500 --> 00:50:25,706
about them You should have been

1208
00:50:25,706 --> 00:50:26,407
doing something to ensure that

1209
00:50:26,407 --> 00:50:26,908
they stayed open and not that

1210
00:50:26,908 --> 00:50:28,908
they closed down.

1211
00:50:30,100 --> 00:50:30,778
And when you guys engage with

1212
00:50:30,778 --> 00:50:34,378
NGOs or nonprofits they are for

1213
00:50:34,482 --> 00:50:35,215
profit and the problem is when

1214
00:50:35,215 --> 00:50:38,815
you contract with them they are

1215
00:50:38,919 --> 00:50:39,720
making money off of these bids

1216
00:50:39,720 --> 00:50:40,388
and the money that you are

1217
00:50:40,388 --> 00:50:43,388
allocating to them that you

1218
00:50:43,925 --> 00:50:44,559
know there is some that's going

1219
00:50:44,559 --> 00:50:45,292
to go to the community but

1220
00:50:45,292 --> 00:50:48,696
there's no you know, checks and

1221
00:50:48,696 --> 00:50:49,363
balances, no accountability and

1222
00:50:49,363 --> 00:50:49,997
transparency to see exactly

1223
00:50:49,997 --> 00:50:52,997
where the money is going.

1224
00:50:53,501 --> 00:50:54,201
It's as though you guys just

1225
00:50:54,201 --> 00:50:57,201
give it into these nonprofits

1226
00:50:58,506 --> 00:50:58,839
hands and kind of let them run

1227
00:50:58,839 --> 00:50:59,640
rampant.

1228
00:50:59,640 --> 00:51:00,341
I mean as you can see with

1229
00:51:00,341 --> 00:51:03,341
Dreams for Change in downtown

1230
00:51:03,377 --> 00:51:03,778
San Diego Partnership with Tent

1231
00:51:03,778 --> 00:51:04,545
City.

1232
00:51:04,545 --> 00:51:05,245
So it's like you know, it's

1233
00:51:05,245 --> 00:51:08,649
really hard to trust you guys

1234
00:51:08,649 --> 00:51:09,417
making sound mind decisions

1235
00:51:09,417 --> 00:51:10,170
when you have proven time and

1236
00:51:10,170 --> 00:51:13,170
again that you cannot be

1237
00:51:13,540 --> 00:51:13,788
trusted when you're allocating

1238
00:51:13,788 --> 00:51:16,788
money to different entities and

1239
00:51:18,660 --> 00:51:19,360
you kind of take out your you

1240
00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:22,360
know, accountability in it and

1241
00:51:22,931 --> 00:51:23,531
act as though you're immune

1242
00:51:23,531 --> 00:51:23,965
from anything if they're

1243
00:51:23,965 --> 00:51:25,965
engaged in it.

1244
00:51:27,802 --> 00:51:28,769
And that's the problem is that

1245
00:51:28,769 --> 00:51:29,404
you know, there's no way to for

1246
00:51:29,404 --> 00:51:32,404
the people to follow where

1247
00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:33,540
their money is going and ensure

1248
00:51:33,540 --> 00:51:34,175
that it is actually making

1249
00:51:34,175 --> 00:51:36,575
the communities better and

1250
00:51:38,412 --> 00:51:39,130
who's determining what needs to

1251
00:51:39,130 --> 00:51:39,714
go into that community.

1252
00:51:39,714 --> 00:51:40,581
If you have an ngo doing it

1253
00:51:40,581 --> 00:51:43,317
then it's like they're going to

1254
00:51:43,317 --> 00:51:44,510
be pushing a certain agenda And

1255
00:51:44,510 --> 00:51:44,752
is that exactly what the people

1256
00:51:44,752 --> 00:51:48,220
want or is that what they want

1257
00:51:48,220 --> 00:51:48,723
and are they getting money to

1258
00:51:48,723 --> 00:51:49,390
do it and then you know,

1259
00:51:49,390 --> 00:51:52,694
profiting off of it when it

1260
00:51:52,694 --> 00:51:53,394
should be all of it should be

1261
00:51:53,394 --> 00:51:54,950
going into the communities so

1262
00:51:54,950 --> 00:51:54,429
that it can be better and not

1263
00:51:54,429 --> 00:51:56,429
like it.

1264
00:51:56,898 --> 00:51:57,565
It's.

1265
00:51:57,565 --> 00:51:58,980
>> Thank you for that

1266
00:51:58,980 --> 00:52:00,980
concluding comment.

1267
00:52:02,337 --> 00:52:03,400
We're going to Andrea Epping

1268
00:52:03,400 --> 00:52:04,639
next and we're just updating

1269
00:52:04,639 --> 00:52:08,239
our slide to have the right

1270
00:52:10,178 --> 00:52:13,778
number You can give us one

1271
00:52:19,321 --> 00:52:21,721
minute Our apologies for

1272
00:52:24,325 --> 00:52:24,826
the delay.

1273
00:52:24,826 --> 00:52:25,426
>> Please proceed.

1274
00:52:25,426 --> 00:52:27,826
This is Andrea Ebbing.

1275
00:52:28,963 --> 00:52:29,631
I think the bids are critical.

1276
00:52:29,631 --> 00:52:33,231
We must invest in the bids.

1277
00:52:33,601 --> 00:52:34,202
I was in the Columbia District

1278
00:52:34,202 --> 00:52:37,202
when I was the marketing

1279
00:52:38,172 --> 00:52:38,840
director for w Hotels and

1280
00:52:38,840 --> 00:52:39,441
Starwood had me do a

1281
00:52:39,441 --> 00:52:41,441
qualitative quantitative

1282
00:52:42,844 --> 00:52:43,845
analysis of the Columbia

1283
00:52:43,845 --> 00:52:46,845
District over like a 6 or 7

1284
00:52:46,881 --> 00:52:47,582
year period for a $26 million

1285
00:52:47,582 --> 00:52:50,582
investment into a property in

1286
00:52:51,686 --> 00:52:52,387
the air and that's when

1287
00:52:52,387 --> 00:52:55,387
the Columbia District was kind

1288
00:52:56,258 --> 00:52:57,580
of being defined because little

1289
00:52:57,580 --> 00:52:57,525
Italy was so successful in how

1290
00:52:57,525 --> 00:52:59,525
they ran things.

1291
00:53:01,863 --> 00:53:02,496
And I feel like we have

1292
00:53:02,496 --> 00:53:03,198
obviously we have a budget

1293
00:53:03,198 --> 00:53:06,100
crisis but I've mentioned this

1294
00:53:06,100 --> 00:53:06,601
before it's like Todd Gloria is

1295
00:53:06,601 --> 00:53:09,100
an assemblyman trying to

1296
00:53:11,139 --> 00:53:11,706
operate the city as a

1297
00:53:11,706 --> 00:53:12,440
politician when it's a

1298
00:53:12,440 --> 00:53:13,341
business, you know what I mean?

1299
00:53:13,341 --> 00:53:16,278
Like we need to really look at

1300
00:53:16,278 --> 00:53:17,450
this as a business and drive

1301
00:53:17,450 --> 00:53:20,450
revenue And certainly there are

1302
00:53:20,849 --> 00:53:21,516
people and issues and human

1303
00:53:21,516 --> 00:53:22,217
rights and civil rights that

1304
00:53:22,217 --> 00:53:25,420
need to be met and addressed.

1305
00:53:25,420 --> 00:53:26,880
But in terms of driving revenue

1306
00:53:26,880 --> 00:53:26,588
and the investment, the bids

1307
00:53:26,588 --> 00:53:28,988
are where it's at.

1308
00:53:30,920 --> 00:53:30,792
I mean look what look what

1309
00:53:30,792 --> 00:53:31,626
the bid did for Little Italy.

1310
00:53:31,626 --> 00:53:34,562
I think you guys I'll see that

1311
00:53:34,562 --> 00:53:35,397
in agree.

1312
00:53:35,397 --> 00:53:39,597
But I think that you know, that

1313
00:53:39,835 --> 00:53:40,535
is going to be our key to

1314
00:53:40,535 --> 00:53:43,535
helping fix because because we

1315
00:53:44,406 --> 00:53:45,173
have a lot of we have a lot of

1316
00:53:45,173 --> 00:53:48,173
aftermath and fallout from all

1317
00:53:49,244 --> 00:53:49,945
the issues we've had recently.

1318
00:53:49,945 --> 00:53:50,245
So we're already all the way

1319
00:53:50,245 --> 00:53:52,245
down.

1320
00:53:54,820 --> 00:53:54,883
We need to have promotions and

1321
00:53:54,883 --> 00:53:55,550
we need to have like feeder

1322
00:53:55,550 --> 00:53:57,950
market promotions going on.

1323
00:53:59,154 --> 00:53:59,922
I often go back to the time we

1324
00:53:59,922 --> 00:54:03,425
had convoys when Joe Jersey was

1325
00:54:03,425 --> 00:54:04,590
running convoys and like one of

1326
00:54:04,590 --> 00:54:04,793
the things was just as an

1327
00:54:04,793 --> 00:54:07,793
example there was an Arizona

1328
00:54:08,300 --> 00:54:08,764
promotion where the investment

1329
00:54:08,764 --> 00:54:11,764
would be 300,000 and the return

1330
00:54:12,234 --> 00:54:12,901
on investment would be 5.2

1331
00:54:12,901 --> 00:54:13,702
million And in order to make

1332
00:54:13,702 --> 00:54:16,702
that kind of money when

1333
00:54:17,306 --> 00:54:18,600
the tourist or the person

1334
00:54:18,600 --> 00:54:21,606
arrives in our city they have

1335
00:54:21,643 --> 00:54:22,344
to have a great time not be

1336
00:54:22,344 --> 00:54:23,145
squeezed for every dollar for

1337
00:54:23,145 --> 00:54:26,145
parking be able to enjoy

1338
00:54:27,482 --> 00:54:28,183
downtown without feeling

1339
00:54:28,183 --> 00:54:28,751
threatened And you know it has

1340
00:54:28,751 --> 00:54:31,586
to be clean and safe.

1341
00:54:31,586 --> 00:54:32,620
So thank you.

1342
00:54:32,620 --> 00:54:36,820

00:54:41,930 --> 00:54:42,798
the La Hoya bid and I am so

1347
00:54:42,798 --> 00:54:46,201
excited to be talking with you

1348
00:54:46,201 --> 00:54:46,668
and apologize for not being

1349
00:54:46,668 --> 00:54:47,369
there in person.

1350
00:54:47,369 --> 00:54:50,969
It is not indicative of my

1351
00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:52,140
passion for this item so I

1352
00:54:52,140 --> 00:54:52,674
wanted to make sure that I got

1353
00:54:52,674 --> 00:54:53,608
a chance to call in.

1354
00:54:53,608 --> 00:54:55,411
I first of all want to thank

1355
00:54:55,411 --> 00:54:56,780
the economic development

1356
00:54:56,780 --> 00:54:56,445
Department for all of their

1357
00:54:56,445 --> 00:54:57,146
hard work.

1358
00:54:57,146 --> 00:54:57,646
Putting together these budgets

1359
00:54:57,646 --> 00:55:00,460
is no small feat.

1360
00:55:00,716 --> 00:55:01,383
So thank you to Christine, Bill

1361
00:55:01,383 --> 00:55:04,787
Blair and all of her team.

1362
00:55:04,787 --> 00:55:05,487
I want to thank you in advance

1363
00:55:05,487 --> 00:55:06,550
and optimistically for your

1364
00:55:06,550 --> 00:55:06,555
unwavering support of

1365
00:55:06,555 --> 00:55:08,555
the resources and

1366
00:55:09,892 --> 00:55:10,259
the commitment to small

1367
00:55:10,259 --> 00:55:10,993
business.

1368
00:55:10,993 --> 00:55:11,660
I know this has been an

1369
00:55:11,660 --> 00:55:13,660
incredibly difficult budget

1370
00:55:15,970 --> 00:55:15,664
process but lj VMAs success is

1371
00:55:15,664 --> 00:55:18,640
also a balancing act.

1372
00:55:19,535 --> 00:55:20,236
Like all of the other bids as

1373
00:55:20,236 --> 00:55:20,902
we work to meet the needs of

1374
00:55:20,902 --> 00:55:23,302
our nonprofit partners, our

1375
00:55:24,607 --> 00:55:25,307
cultural arts organizations and

1376
00:55:25,307 --> 00:55:28,307
of course our 1280 bed members

1377
00:55:28,778 --> 00:55:29,511
our community of young

1378
00:55:29,511 --> 00:55:30,145
professionals continues to grow

1379
00:55:30,145 --> 00:55:32,145
exponentially through our

1380
00:55:33,849 --> 00:55:34,650
monthly activities and events

1381
00:55:34,650 --> 00:55:35,416
and that is something that we

1382
00:55:35,416 --> 00:55:38,187
are incredibly proud of and we

1383
00:55:38,187 --> 00:55:38,520
are prioritizing as we move

1384
00:55:38,520 --> 00:55:39,255
forward.

1385
00:55:39,255 --> 00:55:42,855
As you know, our bid assessment

1386
00:55:43,425 --> 00:55:44,193
fees are fixed, event costs

1387
00:55:44,193 --> 00:55:47,793
continue to rise and funding is

1388
00:55:48,731 --> 00:55:49,431
on the chopping block Yet lj

1389
00:55:49,431 --> 00:55:52,334
Beam has continued to increase

1390
00:55:52,334 --> 00:55:52,635
services along with the other

1391
00:55:52,635 --> 00:55:53,235
bids.

1392
00:55:53,235 --> 00:55:53,936
When I hear the list of

1393
00:55:53,936 --> 00:55:56,336
programs, services and events

1394
00:55:57,606 --> 00:55:58,307
that are being put out by these

1395
00:55:58,307 --> 00:56:00,307
tiny nonprofit organizations,

1396
00:56:02,478 --> 00:56:03,279
it is absolutely overwhelming l

1397
00:56:03,279 --> 00:56:07,160
j v m a continues to connect

1398
00:56:07,160 --> 00:56:07,650
with our community our

1399
00:56:07,650 --> 00:56:10,500
nonprofits use other grant

1400
00:56:12,154 --> 00:56:15,754
funds to help us set actions.

1401
00:56:16,692 --> 00:56:17,590
We want to help you also do

1402
00:56:17,590 --> 00:56:17,793

We are committed to growing our

For example, hey by the si.Com

That's not look Hoya story that

00:56:35,878 --> 00:56:39,848
San Diego story it is a very

1416
00:56:39,848 --> 00:56:40,550
unusual time both in La Hoya as

1417
00:56:40,550 --> 00:56:43,550
we have groups of citizens

1418
00:56:44,987 --> 00:56:45,621

coming into our bid Family.

1427
00:57:20,389 --> 00:57:24,827
Now I want to give you a red

1428
00:57:24,827 --> 00:57:25,528
flag because I know the Gaslamp

1429
00:57:25,528 --> 00:57:25,828
district bid I know how it

1430
00:57:25,828 --> 00:57:27,828
ticks.

1431
00:57:29,698 --> 00:57:33,898
I know how the energy comes in

1432
00:57:34,237 --> 00:57:34,771
and the top energy getter are

1433
00:57:34,771 --> 00:57:36,771
the conventioneers.

1434
00:57:39,175 --> 00:57:39,876
So my red flag is we've got to

1435
00:57:39,876 --> 00:57:40,610
put our arms around our

1436
00:57:40,610 --> 00:57:43,610
convention center and make sure

1437
00:57:44,980 --> 00:57:45,781
that we keep it vibrant and

1438
00:57:45,781 --> 00:57:48,781
cooking along because we need

1439
00:57:50,719 --> 00:57:51,420
them desperately, desperately

1440
00:57:51,420 --> 00:57:55,200
That's I don't like that word

1441
00:57:55,525 --> 00:57:56,125
but we need them to be our gym

1442
00:57:56,125 --> 00:57:58,525
In the Gaslamp District.

1443
00:57:58,561 --> 00:58:03,361

that.

1448
00:58:08,338 --> 00:58:09,380
Now I love to focus on

1449
00:58:09,380 --> 00:58:12,638
the metrics and I know we're

1450
00:58:12,842 --> 00:58:13,676
very good at the quantifiable.

1451
00:58:13,676 --> 00:58:17,276
i'm going to research this at

1452
00:58:17,380 --> 00:58:18,810
some point on the call of

1453
00:58:18,810 --> 00:58:20,481
viable metrics because they're

1454
00:58:21,751 --> 00:58:22,518
subjective Of course at times.

1455
00:58:22,518 --> 00:58:26,118
So I'd like to qualify that

1456
00:58:26,389 --> 00:58:27,900
quantifiable and quantifiable

1457
00:58:27,900 --> 00:58:27,724

1461
00:58:40,704 --> 00:58:41,404
with what it takes to run a bid

1462
00:58:41,404 --> 00:58:42,371
and the challenges they face.

1463
00:58:42,371 --> 00:58:45,371
>> Some of them are really

1464
00:58:46,750 --> 00:58:46,809
enormous So it's not just

1465
00:58:46,809 --> 00:58:50,447
pretty on the top but there's a

1466
00:58:50,447 --> 00:58:51,114
lot going on that you always

1467
00:58:51,114 --> 00:58:54,714
have to look at and really

1468
00:58:55,752 --> 00:58:56,453

01:00:42,793 --> 01:00:43,394
>> Hey, thank you.

1534
01:00:43,394 --> 01:00:44,128
How's it going today?

1535
01:00:44,128 --> 01:00:46,563
City Council How are we doing?

1536
01:00:46,563 --> 01:00:47,264
Just wanted to thank

1537
01:00:47,264 --> 01:00:47,931
the previous caller I believe

1538
01:00:47,931 --> 01:00:50,931
her name was Jacqueline for

1539
01:00:51,701 --> 01:00:52,403
what she just said I was kind

1540
01:00:52,403 --> 01:00:55,439
of arrived late to the meeting

1541
01:00:55,439 --> 01:00:55,906
so I didn't get a chance to

1542
01:00:55,906 --> 01:00:56,607
hear everything.

1543
01:00:56,607 --> 01:00:57,374
I'm reading the agenda but as

1544
01:00:57,374 --> 01:01:00,374
I'm looking online I'm seeing

1545
01:01:01,244 --> 01:01:01,945
the business Improvement

1546
01:01:01,945 --> 01:01:02,646
District Alliance and reading

1547
01:01:02,646 --> 01:01:05,749
its purpose and with what she

1548
01:01:05,749 --> 01:01:06,417
said and combined to what I'm

1549
01:01:06,417 --> 01:01:07,510
reading right now it sounds

1550
01:01:07,510 --> 01:01:09,451
like a fantastic program.

1551
01:01:10,987 --> 01:01:11,455
It's super beneficial coming to

1552
01:01:11,455 --> 01:01:12,156
these meetings.

1553
01:01:12,156 --> 01:01:12,856
I just want to say for anybody

1554
01:01:12,856 --> 01:01:13,457
that MAY be listening there's

1555
01:01:13,457 --> 01:01:16,193
so many things that are

1556
01:01:16,193 --> 01:01:16,727
discussed at every meeting and

1557
01:01:16,727 --> 01:01:17,561
I'm really grateful.

1558
01:01:17,561 --> 01:01:20,764
I know I don't always we don't

1559
01:01:20,764 --> 01:01:21,431
always agree on every issue but

1560
01:01:21,431 --> 01:01:22,320
it's really beneficial Even

1561
01:01:22,320 --> 01:01:25,320
the things that I don't

1562
01:01:25,836 --> 01:01:28,236
necessarily agree with on

1563
01:01:30,700 --> 01:01:30,875
the surface I find out there

1564
01:01:30,875 --> 01:01:34,475
are nuances that I am grateful

1565
01:01:35,479 --> 01:01:35,812
for like the No Shots fired

1566
01:01:35,812 --> 01:01:37,812
program.

1567
01:01:39,650 --> 01:01:40,351
I think that's a great use use

1568
01:01:40,351 --> 01:01:41,318
of funds within this budget.

1569
01:01:41,318 --> 01:01:44,318
But anyway, getting back to

1570
01:01:44,989 --> 01:01:45,589
the bid budgets and and

1571
01:01:45,589 --> 01:01:47,589
the business improvement

1572
01:01:49,493 --> 01:01:50,194
district, I think that this is

1573
01:01:50,194 --> 01:01:50,928
exactly what our government is

1574
01:01:50,928 --> 01:01:54,265
supposed to be serving and this

1575
01:01:54,265 --> 01:01:55,320
is a form of public safety is

1576
01:01:55,320 --> 01:01:58,320
making sure that we have

1577
01:01:59,104 --> 01:01:59,770
economic justice right and

1578
01:01:59,770 --> 01:02:02,170
making sure that small

1579
01:02:04,410 --> 01:02:04,842
businesses don't don't face

1580
01:02:04,842 --> 01:02:07,842
the foreclosures that end up

1581
01:02:09,179 --> 01:02:09,814
becoming a blight on

1582
01:02:09,814 --> 01:02:10,281
the community when we have

1583
01:02:10,281 --> 01:02:10,580
empty buildings.

1584
01:02:10,580 --> 01:02:12,580
Right.

1585
01:02:14,850 --> 01:02:14,785
And none of us wants to live in

1586
01:02:14,785 --> 01:02:17,185
a corporate conglomerate town

1587
01:02:18,622 --> 01:02:19,323
where it's the same the same

1588
01:02:19,323 --> 01:02:22,923
layout of the city that you

1589
01:02:23,394 --> 01:02:24,950
could find in any other city

1590
01:02:24,950 --> 01:02:24,562
because it's the same handful

1591
01:02:24,562 --> 01:02:25,262
of corporations.

1592
01:02:25,262 --> 01:02:28,262
Our local businesses are what

1593
01:02:28,966 --> 01:02:29,634
make San Diego unique And if

1594
01:02:29,634 --> 01:02:32,634
our if our local government

1595
01:02:33,804 --> 01:02:34,539
doesn't step in to protect them

1596
01:02:34,539 --> 01:02:37,539
then we're not protecting those

1597
01:02:38,376 --> 01:02:39,100
that create the economic

1598
01:02:39,100 --> 01:02:39,643
opportunities that create

1599
01:02:39,643 --> 01:02:40,344
the stability they create

1600
01:02:40,344 --> 01:02:40,645
the safety that makes our city

1601
01:02:40,645 --> 01:02:42,645
great.

1602
01:02:43,848 --> 01:02:44,482
So thank you.

1603
01:02:44,482 --> 01:02:45,149
>> Time is concluded.

1604
01:02:45,149 --> 01:02:45,783
Kathleen, if you can please

1605
01:02:45,783 --> 01:02:46,384
unmute and then our final

1606
01:02:46,384 --> 01:02:48,784
speaker will be Michael

1607
01:02:50,455 --> 01:02:51,550
Tremblay.

1608
01:02:51,550 --> 01:02:53,550
>> Kathleen Lippert Yes.

1609
01:02:54,858 --> 01:02:55,226
If I'm here Sorry.

1610
01:02:55,226 --> 01:02:56,940
Thank you.

1611
01:02:56,940 --> 01:02:59,940
It's important that bids like

1612
01:03:00,264 --> 01:03:00,897
Discover work to improve their

1613
01:03:00,897 --> 01:03:02,897
partnership with community

1614
01:03:04,902 --> 01:03:05,569
members Recently one of

1615
01:03:05,569 --> 01:03:06,170
the representatives came to

1616
01:03:06,170 --> 01:03:09,400
City Council to speak in

1617
01:03:09,400 --> 01:03:09,774
support of a neighborhood bar

1618
01:03:09,774 --> 01:03:13,374
which has been the subject of

1619
01:03:13,978 --> 01:03:14,412
neighborhood nuisance problems

1620
01:03:14,412 --> 01:03:15,120
for decades.

1621
01:03:15,120 --> 01:03:15,646
It's admirable when they

1622
01:03:15,646 --> 01:03:17,646
support community friendly

1623
01:03:19,717 --> 01:03:20,451
alcohol license fees but

1624
01:03:20,451 --> 01:03:23,451
supporting pub crawls and other

1625
01:03:24,289 --> 01:03:24,956
high risk drinking events is

1626
01:03:24,956 --> 01:03:25,757
not in the best interest of

1627
01:03:25,757 --> 01:03:29,357
either their any of their bars

1628
01:03:29,427 --> 01:03:29,761
or or for the community

1629
01:03:29,761 --> 01:03:31,761
members.

1630
01:03:34,198 --> 01:03:34,899
>> tb ranks consistently in

1631
01:03:34,899 --> 01:03:37,899
the top three communities for

1632
01:03:38,570 --> 01:03:39,203
crime most with most violent

1633
01:03:39,203 --> 01:03:39,871
incident of being alcohol

1634
01:03:39,871 --> 01:03:42,871
related and occurring in bar

1635
01:03:43,442 --> 01:03:44,108
districts euphemistically

1636
01:03:44,108 --> 01:03:44,475
referred to as hospitality

1637
01:03:44,475 --> 01:03:46,475
districts.

1638
01:03:48,880 --> 01:03:49,848
But when people visitors come

1639
01:03:49,848 --> 01:03:53,718
to pub they do not want to be

1640
01:03:53,718 --> 01:03:57,318
fearful of walking at night and

1641
01:03:57,989 --> 01:03:58,656
being spending a lot of money

1642
01:03:58,656 --> 01:03:59,456
to spend in hotels that they

1643
01:03:59,456 --> 01:04:03,560
can't sleep because of the bar

1644
01:04:07,265 --> 01:04:07,932
noise and they and they have

1645
01:04:07,932 --> 01:04:08,633
the music that they play and

1646
01:04:08,633 --> 01:04:11,633
also the vulgar language that

1647
01:04:12,437 --> 01:04:14,837
is that is telegraphed

1648
01:04:17,410 --> 01:04:17,341
throughout the community There

1649
01:04:17,341 --> 01:04:18,900
.

1650
01:04:18,900 --> 01:04:18,676
Those are things that they

1651
01:04:18,676 --> 01:04:21,346
should be careful to do Be

1652
01:04:21,346 --> 01:04:22,460
careful to only sponsor and

1653
01:04:22,460 --> 01:04:25,460
support businesses that are in

1654
01:04:26,830 --> 01:04:26,718
the best interest of both

1655
01:04:26,718 --> 01:04:28,718
businesses and community.

1656
01:04:31,589 --> 01:04:31,889
Thank you for letting me speak

1657
01:04:31,889 --> 01:04:32,290
.

1658
01:04:32,290 --> 01:04:32,891
Thank you.

1659
01:04:32,891 --> 01:04:33,391
And our final speaker is

1660
01:04:33,391 --> 01:04:35,391

01:04:35,827 --> 01:04:36,561
If you can please unmute.

1662
01:04:36,561 --> 01:04:37,195
Thank you Council PRESIDENT

1663
01:04:37,195 --> 01:04:40,195
Council members My name is

the Gaslamp Quarter

1667
01:04:42,634 --> 01:04:44,634
Association.

1668
01:04:45,437 --> 01:04:46,204
I'm here today to strongly

1669
01:04:46,204 --> 01:04:49,204
endorse the f y 27 Business

1670
01:04:50,475 --> 01:04:51,242
Improvement District budgets.

1671
01:04:51,242 --> 01:04:51,942
These budgets are critical to

1672
01:04:51,942 --> 01:04:52,543
the success of small business

1673
01:04:52,543 --> 01:04:54,943
community in the Gaslamp

1674
01:04:55,800 --> 01:04:55,747
Quarter and in

1675
01:04:55,747 --> 01:04:56,114
the neighborhoods throughout

1676
01:04:56,114 --> 01:04:56,814
the city.

1677
01:04:56,814 --> 01:04:58,814
Business improvement districts

1678
01:05:00,185 --> 01:05:00,852
provide direct support to small

1679
01:05:00,852 --> 01:05:01,586
businesses through advocacy,

1680
01:05:01,586 --> 01:05:03,586
maintenance, marketing, special

1681
01:05:04,856 --> 01:05:05,524
events and programs that help

1682
01:05:05,524 --> 01:05:07,924
keep our businesses active,

1683
01:05:09,694 --> 01:05:10,395
safe and economically vibrant.

1684
01:05:10,395 --> 01:05:11,129
I also want to reiterate

1685
01:05:11,129 --> 01:05:11,662
the importance of fully funding

1686
01:05:11,662 --> 01:05:13,662
the small businesses

1687
01:05:14,532 --> 01:05:15,367
Enhancement Program.

1688
01:05:15,367 --> 01:05:19,538
This program is not a luxury It

1689
01:05:19,538 --> 01:05:20,138
is a necessity for investment

1690
01:05:20,138 --> 01:05:20,504
into the small business

1691
01:05:20,504 --> 01:05:21,139
community.

1692
01:05:21,139 --> 01:05:21,740
When small businesses are

1693
01:05:21,740 --> 01:05:23,740
supported they generate

1694
01:05:24,943 --> 01:05:25,510
activities jobs, tax revenue

1695
01:05:25,510 --> 01:05:27,910
and long term economic

1696
01:05:29,481 --> 01:05:30,248
stability for the city.

1697
01:05:30,248 --> 01:05:30,949
I want to thank the Economic

1698
01:05:30,949 --> 01:05:31,616
Development Department for its

1699
01:05:31,616 --> 01:05:34,160
partnership and continue to

1700
01:05:34,486 --> 01:05:35,870
work in supporting the bids and

1701
01:05:35,870 --> 01:05:35,754
recognizing the value of

1702
01:05:35,754 --> 01:05:38,754
the small businesses in our

1703
01:05:38,990 --> 01:05:39,658
neighborhood.

1704
01:05:39,658 --> 01:05:40,325
The Gaslamp quarter's very

1705
01:05:40,325 --> 01:05:42,325
important economic cultural

1706
01:05:43,461 --> 01:05:44,162
area in San Diego and the bid

1707
01:05:44,162 --> 01:05:44,896
funding plays a vital role in

1708
01:05:44,896 --> 01:05:47,296
helping our businesses succeed.

1709
01:05:49,670 --> 01:05:49,768
So I respectfully urge to

1710
01:05:49,768 --> 01:05:52,168

1711
01:05:52,971 --> 01:05:53,571

01:05:53,571 --> 01:05:54,720
your support everyone on

1713
01:05:54,720 --> 01:05:54,505

Thank you.

1716
01:05:55,507 --> 01:05:57,907
And that concludes public

1717
01:05:58,643 --> 01:05:59,177
comment for this item.

1718
01:05:59,177 --> 01:05:59,745
>> All right.

1719
01:05:59,745 --> 01:06:02,145
Thank you, City clerk.

1720
01:06:02,547 --> 01:06:03,248
I will now turn it over to

council members for questions,

1722
01:06:03,849 --> 01:06:04,181

the code are grouped into five

1971
01:12:59,500 --> 01:13:00,167
categories you here see on

1972
01:13:00,167 --> 01:13:03,167
the screen align policy with

1973
01:13:03,903 --> 01:13:04,204
climate equity or housing

1974
01:13:04,204 --> 01:13:04,772
goals.

1975
01:13:04,772 --> 01:13:06,772
Second clarifications.

1976
01:13:08,575 --> 01:13:09,209

01:13:13,981 --> 01:13:14,581
parentheses.

1981
01:13:14,581 --> 01:13:16,981
The numbers of proposed

1982
01:13:17,885 --> 01:13:18,252
amendments are included in each

1983
01:13:18,252 --> 01:13:20,252
category.

1984
01:13:22,622 --> 01:13:23,324
First I will review changes to

1985
01:13:23,324 --> 01:13:23,890
the to the proposed amendments

1986
01:13:23,890 --> 01:13:24,558
to align the code with

1987
01:13:24,558 --> 01:13:27,558
the city's climate equity or

1988
01:13:27,594 --> 01:13:28,262
housing goals.

1989
01:13:28,262 --> 01:13:28,962
The next slide highlights

01:13:32,566 --> 01:13:33,234
generate public interest, raise

1992
01:13:33,234 --> 01:13:35,634
questions during outreach or

1993
01:13:36,737 --> 01:13:37,504
required further violation.

1994
01:13:37,504 --> 01:13:38,172
While some of these items will

1995
01:13:38,172 --> 01:13:38,805
be reviewed here, additional

1996
01:13:38,805 --> 01:13:41,805
details on all items are

1997
01:13:41,909 --> 01:13:42,509
provided in the backup

1998
01:13:42,509 --> 01:13:44,909
materials before I begin

1999
01:13:46,580 --> 01:13:47,447
presenting on the citywide

2000
01:13:47,447 --> 01:13:48,820
items, I would like to point

2001
01:13:48,820 --> 01:13:48,816
out that the category that

2002
01:13:48,816 --> 01:13:51,816
the proposed item is associated

2003
01:13:51,919 --> 01:13:52,453
with can be found at the bottom

2004
01:13:52,453 --> 01:13:52,853

2005
01:13:52,853 --> 01:13:54,853
the screen.

2006
01:13:56,357 --> 01:13:57,570
Item three includes changes to

2007
01:13:57,570 --> 01:13:57,658
the floor area ratio bonus and

2008
01:13:57,658 --> 01:14:00,580
commercial base zones to

2009
01:14:01,161 --> 01:14:01,796
encourage more mixed income

2010
01:14:01,796 --> 01:14:02,462
development by allowing an

2011
01:14:02,462 --> 01:14:04,862
additional point five floor

2014
01:14:06,901 --> 01:14:07,501
elements that provide all

2015
01:14:07,501 --> 01:14:09,501
required deed restricted

2016
01:14:11,205 --> 01:14:11,905
affordable homes on the site.

2017
01:14:11,905 --> 01:14:12,573
This amendment only applies in

2018
01:14:12,573 --> 01:14:14,973
commercial base zone star

2019
01:14:16,377 --> 01:14:16,978

01:14:20,748 --> 01:14:21,382
resource areas as defined by

2022
01:14:21,382 --> 01:14:21,949
the California Tax Credit

2023
01:14:21,949 --> 01:14:22,516
Allocation Committee.

2024
01:14:22,516 --> 01:14:24,516
This would incentivize

2025
01:14:26,200 --> 01:14:26,753
affordable homes to be

2026
01:14:26,753 --> 01:14:27,488
constructed on site in high and

2027
01:14:27,488 --> 01:14:29,888
highest resource communities in

2028
01:14:30,391 --> 01:14:30,791
this city.

2029
01:14:30,791 --> 01:14:31,459
Item six.

2030
01:14:31,459 --> 01:14:33,459
Currently the complete

2031
01:14:35,730 --> 01:14:36,364
community Housing Solutions

2032
01:14:36,364 --> 01:14:36,931
only permits rental homes.

2033
01:14:36,931 --> 01:14:38,931
This amendment allows

2034
01:14:40,201 --> 01:14:40,901
the development for for sole

2035
01:14:40,901 --> 01:14:41,569
homes and provides additional

2036
01:14:41,569 --> 01:14:43,569
homeownership opportunities

2037
01:14:44,939 --> 01:14:45,705
across various income levels.

2038
01:14:45,705 --> 01:14:48,105
>> Item seven the proposed

2039
01:14:50,780 --> 01:14:50,711
amendment to the communities

2040
01:14:50,711 --> 01:14:51,445
Housing Solutions requires

2041
01:14:51,445 --> 01:14:55,450
certain conditions to be met to

2042
01:14:55,416 --> 01:14:55,817
receive a waiver for homes less

2043
01:14:55,817 --> 01:14:57,817
than 500ft.

2044
01:14:59,220 --> 01:14:59,954
At the time the full waiver was

2045
01:14:59,954 --> 01:15:00,655
fully adopted with the adoption

2046
01:15:00,655 --> 01:15:04,191
of city wide if all new homes

2047
01:15:04,191 --> 01:15:04,892
were required to pay the same

2048
01:15:04,892 --> 01:15:05,593
amount regardless of the size

2049
01:15:05,593 --> 01:15:09,193
of the home with the adoption

2050
01:15:09,664 --> 01:15:10,298
of city wide if all dif are

2051
01:15:10,298 --> 01:15:10,998
scaled based on home size

2052
01:15:10,998 --> 01:15:13,767
meaning the smaller homes pay

2053
01:15:13,767 --> 01:15:14,468
less than greater homes a

2054
01:15:14,468 --> 01:15:17,872
complete waiver of dif is not

2055
01:15:17,872 --> 01:15:18,406
recommended for smaller homes.

2056
01:15:18,406 --> 01:15:19,400
Since infrastructure

2057
01:15:19,400 --> 01:15:19,607
investments are needed to

2058
01:15:19,607 --> 01:15:21,607
ensure adequate public

2059
01:15:23,143 --> 01:15:23,778
facilities are provided which

2060
01:15:23,778 --> 01:15:24,512
is the intended purpose of

2061
01:15:24,512 --> 01:15:27,512
divide and step estimates, they

2062
01:15:28,115 --> 01:15:28,650
MAY result in the continual

2063
01:15:28,650 --> 01:15:29,383
loss of revenue for

2064
01:15:29,383 --> 01:15:32,320
infrastructure in the amount of

2065
01:15:32,320 --> 01:15:32,986
about 11 million annually.

2066
01:15:32,986 --> 01:15:33,654
The City Planning Department

2067
01:15:33,654 --> 01:15:35,654
initially proposed removing

2068
01:15:36,558 --> 01:15:37,158
the diff waiver from

2069
01:15:37,158 --> 01:15:37,559
the Complete Communities

2070
01:15:37,559 --> 01:15:38,126
regulations.

2071
01:15:38,126 --> 01:15:40,126
However, the Planning

2072
01:15:42,130 --> 01:15:42,897
Commission recommended the idea

2073
01:15:42,897 --> 01:15:46,201
for year for homes Less than

2074
01:15:46,201 --> 01:15:46,901
500ft continue to be applied

2075
01:15:46,901 --> 01:15:47,435
based on the Land Use and

2076
01:15:47,435 --> 01:15:48,690
Housing Committee's

2077
01:15:48,690 --> 01:15:50,690
recommendation Staff made

2078
01:15:51,339 --> 01:15:52,600
revisions to this item to

2079
01:15:52,600 --> 01:15:52,640
clarify that the diff waiver

2080
01:15:52,640 --> 01:15:55,640
would continue to apply to

2081
01:15:56,110 --> 01:15:59,110
homes less than 500ft provided

2082
01:15:59,447 --> 01:16:00,215
the development includes 10%,

2083
01:16:00,215 --> 01:16:01,150
three or more bedroom homes and

2084
01:16:01,150 --> 01:16:04,519
that the diff waiver is limited

2085
01:16:04,519 --> 01:16:07,922
to 30% of the total homes in a

2086
01:16:07,922 --> 01:16:08,223
development that are less than

2087
01:16:08,223 --> 01:16:08,923
500ft.

2088
01:16:08,923 --> 01:16:09,524
It is important to note that

2089
01:16:09,524 --> 01:16:11,924
the city currently still

2090
01:16:13,194 --> 01:16:13,895
provides a full diff waiver for

2091
01:16:13,895 --> 01:16:16,295
any deed restricted affordable

2092
01:16:17,665 --> 01:16:18,366
home meaning that these smaller

2093
01:16:18,366 --> 01:16:19,134
units would still be eligible

2094
01:16:19,134 --> 01:16:20,935
for a waiver if a deed

2095
01:16:20,935 --> 01:16:23,335
restricted was placed on

2096
01:16:25,740 --> 01:16:26,608
the home.

2097
01:16:26,608 --> 01:16:27,275
In order to be consistent with

2098
01:16:27,275 --> 01:16:29,675
the Mid-City Community plan

2099
01:16:31,279 --> 01:16:31,880
which calls for medium high to

2100
01:16:31,880 --> 01:16:32,614
high density residential

2101
01:16:32,614 --> 01:16:35,140
development and commercial uses

2102
01:16:36,417 --> 01:16:37,510
along transit corridors,

2103
01:16:37,510 --> 01:16:37,752
the Central Urbanized Plan

2104
01:16:37,752 --> 01:16:40,752
District needs to be updated.

2105
01:16:41,189 --> 01:16:41,923
The amendment proposal would

2106
01:16:41,923 --> 01:16:42,624
prohibit new moving and storage

2107
01:16:42,624 --> 01:16:45,240
facilities in specific central

2108
01:16:46,528 --> 01:16:48,928
urbanized commercial zones that

2109
01:16:49,931 --> 01:16:50,499
include c2-3 through c2-5 zones

2110
01:16:50,499 --> 01:16:51,166
to be consistent with

2111
01:16:51,166 --> 01:16:53,566
the Mid-City community plan.

2112
01:16:54,669 --> 01:16:55,370
This would not impact existing

2113
01:16:55,370 --> 01:16:55,971
storage facilities which would

2114
01:16:55,971 --> 01:16:58,971
be subject to the city's

2115
01:16:59,207 --> 01:16:59,608
previously conforming use

2116
01:16:59,608 --> 01:17:00,175
regulations.

2117
01:17:00,175 --> 01:17:00,809
This amendment is also

2118
01:17:00,809 --> 01:17:03,209
consistent with the city's

2119
01:17:04,279 --> 01:17:04,980
climate goals of encouraging

2120
01:17:04,980 --> 01:17:05,680
active pedestrian communities

2121
01:17:05,680 --> 01:17:08,680
and encouraging new housing to

2122
01:17:09,183 --> 01:17:09,718
be built, new transit to be

2123
01:17:09,718 --> 01:17:11,718
built near transit.

2124
01:17:13,890 --> 01:17:17,125
Now we move on to our next

2125
01:17:17,125 --> 01:17:17,793
category that comprised of 23

2126
01:17:17,793 --> 01:17:18,360
items within the code update

2127
01:17:18,360 --> 01:17:20,360
under clarifications.

2128
01:17:22,264 --> 01:17:23,640
Note that we will review some

2129
01:17:23,640 --> 01:17:23,664
of these items but that more

2130
01:17:23,664 --> 01:17:24,266
detail and all items are

2131
01:17:24,266 --> 01:17:26,666
contained in the backup

2132
01:17:26,801 --> 01:17:27,468
materials.

2133
01:17:27,468 --> 01:17:29,868
Item 11 amends the noise

2134
01:17:31,440 --> 01:17:32,140
regulations to clarify In

2135
01:17:32,140 --> 01:17:35,140
certain cases noise levels MAY

2136
01:17:36,944 --> 01:17:37,512
temporary exceed limits if

2137
01:17:37,512 --> 01:17:38,213
the activity or use is

2138
01:17:38,213 --> 01:17:41,213
authorized by a special event

2139
01:17:41,350 --> 01:17:41,983
permit development permit or

2140
01:17:41,983 --> 01:17:42,684
other permits or agreement

2141
01:17:42,684 --> 01:17:43,285
approved by the city manager.

2142
01:17:43,285 --> 01:17:45,285
This amendment clarifies

2143
01:17:45,988 --> 01:17:46,355
current implementation

2144
01:17:46,355 --> 01:17:48,355
practices.

2145
01:17:50,125 --> 01:17:50,692
Item 17 The amendment is meant

2146
01:17:50,692 --> 01:17:51,393
to inform development

2147
01:17:51,393 --> 01:17:53,793
applicants to fire defensible

2148
01:17:55,330 --> 01:17:55,864
space buffer MAY be required

2149
01:17:55,864 --> 01:17:58,264
that is greater than

2150
01:17:59,234 --> 01:17:59,901
the setback in the base zone.

2151
01:17:59,901 --> 01:18:00,536
Nothing in this section

2152
01:18:00,536 --> 01:18:02,936
increases the authority of

2153
01:18:04,105 --> 01:18:04,806
the fire marshal but simply

2154
01:18:04,806 --> 01:18:05,507
provides notice and applicant

2155
01:18:05,507 --> 01:18:05,907
that other requirements MAY be

2156
01:18:05,907 --> 01:18:07,907
applicable.

2157
01:18:09,778 --> 01:18:10,445
The Planning Commission

2158
01:18:10,445 --> 01:18:11,146
recommended that step insert

2159
01:18:11,146 --> 01:18:13,546
the defensible space qualifier

2160
01:18:14,983 --> 01:18:15,684
to the fire setback language to

2161
01:18:15,684 --> 01:18:18,840
differentiate between the two

2162
01:18:19,254 --> 01:18:19,721
different requirements in

2163
01:18:19,721 --> 01:18:20,489
the base zones.

2164
01:18:20,489 --> 01:18:23,489
City staff change the amendment

2165
01:18:24,625 --> 01:18:25,360
from fire setback to fire

2166
01:18:25,360 --> 01:18:25,994
defensible space for to address

2167
01:18:25,994 --> 01:18:26,729
the Planning Commission's

2168
01:18:26,729 --> 01:18:29,729
concern and increase clarity of

2169
01:18:31,967 --> 01:18:32,835
the amendment.

2170
01:18:32,835 --> 01:18:35,903
Item 18 in the plant makes use

2171
01:18:35,903 --> 01:18:36,638
of at least 50% of the project

2172
01:18:36,638 --> 01:18:40,238
floor areas required to be a

2173
01:18:40,508 --> 01:18:41,210
nonresidential use and

2174
01:18:41,210 --> 01:18:42,100
the remainder area MAY be used

2175
01:18:42,100 --> 01:18:44,410
for either nonresidential or

2176
01:18:45,114 --> 01:18:45,781
residential uses.

2177
01:18:45,781 --> 01:18:46,481
Live work quarters are

2178
01:18:46,481 --> 01:18:48,481
considered nonresidential uses

2179
01:18:50,286 --> 01:18:50,886
even though they provide a

2180
01:18:50,886 --> 01:18:51,620
residential component to

2181
01:18:51,620 --> 01:18:52,210
provide additionally additional

2182
01:18:52,210 --> 01:18:54,210
flexibility.

2183
01:18:55,900 --> 01:18:57,900
The amendment proposal

2184
01:18:58,861 --> 01:18:59,595
clarifies up to 5,050% of live

2185
01:18:59,595 --> 01:19:00,228
work quarters floor area can be

2186
01:19:00,228 --> 01:19:02,628
counted toward the minimum

2187
01:19:02,898 --> 01:19:04,898
nonresidential requirement of

2188
01:19:07,703 --> 01:19:08,437
the impact zone.

2189
01:19:08,437 --> 01:19:10,437
Item 25 Alliance Affordable

2190
01:19:12,740 --> 01:19:12,775
Housing Complete Communities

2191
01:19:12,775 --> 01:19:13,409
Housing Solutions and Dwelling

2192
01:19:13,409 --> 01:19:15,409
Unit protectant Protection

2193
01:19:17,579 --> 01:19:18,247
Regulations for Government Code

2194
01:19:18,247 --> 01:19:20,247
Section 663.5 By clarifying

2195
01:19:21,584 --> 01:19:22,284
that equipment size means that

2196
01:19:22,284 --> 01:19:22,951
the replacement dwelling units

2197
01:19:22,951 --> 01:19:25,951
must include the same total

2198
01:19:26,210 --> 01:19:26,489
number of bedrooms as the units

2199
01:19:26,489 --> 01:19:27,389
being replaced.

2200
01:19:27,389 --> 01:19:30,989
This is to ensure that families

2201
01:19:31,627 --> 01:19:32,194
occupying the protected units

2202
01:19:32,194 --> 01:19:32,861
can still qualify for

2203
01:19:32,861 --> 01:19:35,261
the replacement units Since

2204
01:19:35,397 --> 01:19:35,998
bedroom count determines

2205
01:19:35,998 --> 01:19:37,998
the affordability of

2206
01:19:40,736 --> 01:19:41,604
the replacement unit.

2207
01:19:41,604 --> 01:19:42,304
>> Next we focus on code

2208
01:19:42,304 --> 01:19:45,304
amendments that bring the San

2209
01:19:45,407 --> 01:19:46,410
Diego Municipal Code into

2210
01:19:46,410 --> 01:19:46,742
compliance with state law.

2211
01:19:46,742 --> 01:19:49,912
Again, we will review some of

2212
01:19:49,912 --> 01:19:50,513
these items but that more

2213
01:19:50,513 --> 01:19:51,113
detail and all items are

2214
01:19:51,113 --> 01:19:51,480
contained in the backup

2215
01:19:51,480 --> 01:19:53,480
materials.

2216
01:19:54,784 --> 01:19:55,450
Please note that the proposal

2217
01:19:55,450 --> 01:19:56,152
amendments simply implement

2218
01:19:56,152 --> 01:20:00,352
state law and do not go beyond

2219
01:20:00,789 --> 01:20:01,123
what is otherwise required by

2220
01:20:01,123 --> 01:20:03,123
item 39.

2221
01:20:05,328 --> 01:20:06,610
Tentative map align aligns with

2222
01:20:06,610 --> 01:20:06,729
ten of map regulations with

2223
01:20:06,729 --> 01:20:07,296
the Subdivision Map Act for

2224
01:20:07,296 --> 01:20:09,296
land zoned Industrial

2225
01:20:10,366 --> 01:20:11,660
Commercial development

2226
01:20:11,660 --> 01:20:11,734
clarified when a tentative map

2227
01:20:11,734 --> 01:20:14,734
is not required pursuant to

2228
01:20:15,605 --> 01:20:16,304
government code section 66426.

2229
01:20:16,304 --> 01:20:18,704
The Planning Commission was

2230
01:20:20,909 --> 01:20:21,578
concerned that mixed use zones

2231
01:20:21,578 --> 01:20:22,211
were not explicitly included

2232
01:20:22,211 --> 01:20:25,114
and therefore would not be

2233
01:20:25,114 --> 01:20:25,548
eligible for a tentative map

2234
01:20:25,548 --> 01:20:26,215
waiver.

2235
01:20:26,215 --> 01:20:26,915
City staff added language to

2236
01:20:26,915 --> 01:20:29,552
clarify that the tentative map

2237
01:20:29,552 --> 01:20:30,286
waiver would be allowed in

2238
01:20:30,286 --> 01:20:30,886
mixed use zones for development

2239
01:20:30,886 --> 01:20:33,286
that is consistent with

2240
01:20:36,825 --> 01:20:37,493
the subdivision map Act.

2241
01:20:37,493 --> 01:20:38,127
>> Item 40 allows for

2242
01:20:38,127 --> 01:20:40,527
ministerial approval of a

2243
01:20:41,964 --> 01:20:42,732
subdivision of a 210 dwelling

2244
01:20:42,732 --> 01:20:45,732
units allowed zone for multiple

2245
01:20:45,768 --> 01:20:46,468
dwellings that are five acres

2246
01:20:46,468 --> 01:20:46,969
or less to be compliant with

2247
01:20:46,969 --> 01:20:48,969
Senate Bill 684.

2248
01:20:50,239 --> 01:20:50,907
The state bill establishes a

2249
01:20:50,907 --> 01:20:51,641
streamlined approval process

2250
01:20:51,641 --> 01:20:54,410
for such subdivisions exempting

2251
01:20:55,440 --> 01:20:55,744
them from the California

2252
01:20:55,744 --> 01:20:56,279
Environmental Quality Act and

2253
01:20:56,279 --> 01:20:58,279
other requirements.

2254
01:20:59,582 --> 01:21:00,183
However, the application of

2255
01:21:00,183 --> 01:21:00,850
this amendment would be

2256
01:21:00,850 --> 01:21:03,850
excluded in very high fire

2257
01:21:04,754 --> 01:21:05,454
hazards severity zones wetlands

2258
01:21:05,454 --> 01:21:06,856
development with existing deed

2259
01:21:06,856 --> 01:21:09,256
restricted affordable homes and

2260
01:21:11,661 --> 01:21:12,161
rental homes.

2261
01:21:12,161 --> 01:21:13,290
Item 41.

2262
01:21:13,290 --> 01:21:15,429
Senate Bill 1123 Expands on

2263
01:21:17,166 --> 01:21:17,834
Senate Bill 684 that was

2264
01:21:17,834 --> 01:21:20,234
previously discussed in this

2265
01:21:21,904 --> 01:21:22,505
slide to allow for streamlined

2266
01:21:22,505 --> 01:21:23,390
subdivisions and single

2267
01:21:23,390 --> 01:21:25,390
dwelling unit zones.

2268
01:21:26,776 --> 01:21:27,443
The same site eligibility

2269
01:21:27,443 --> 01:21:29,843
restrictions for Senate Bill

2270
01:21:31,447 --> 01:21:32,147
684 and multifamily zones apply

2271
01:21:32,147 --> 01:21:35,147
to single dwelling unit zones.

2272
01:21:36,850 --> 01:21:36,752
However, this bill included

2273
01:21:36,752 --> 01:21:37,487
additional location criteria

2274
01:21:37,487 --> 01:21:41,870
that includes the site must not

2275
01:21:41,324 --> 01:21:41,991
be more than 1.5 acres and

2276
01:21:41,991 --> 01:21:42,392
located adjacent to existing

2277
01:21:42,392 --> 01:21:44,392
development.

2278
01:21:47,130 --> 01:21:47,797
In addition, Senate Bill 1123

2279
01:21:47,797 --> 01:21:51,397
allows for the creation of a

2280
01:21:51,901 --> 01:21:52,769
remainder law and requires lots

2281
01:21:52,769 --> 01:21:56,172
to be sold with a dwelling unit

2282
01:21:56,172 --> 01:21:57,400
unless they are reserved for

2283
01:21:57,400 --> 01:22:00,543
open space common area or a

2284
01:22:00,543 --> 01:22:02,543
remainder parcel.

2285
01:22:04,781 --> 01:22:05,481
The Land Development code

2286
01:22:05,481 --> 01:22:06,182
includes 19 items that fall

2287
01:22:06,182 --> 01:22:08,582
into the corrections category.

2288
01:22:09,753 --> 01:22:10,386
Again we will review some of

2289
01:22:10,386 --> 01:22:11,200
these items but that more

2290
01:22:11,200 --> 01:22:11,621
detail and other items are

2291
01:22:11,621 --> 01:22:14,210
contained in the backup

2292
01:22:14,824 --> 01:22:16,824
material of item 68.

2293
01:22:19,629 --> 01:22:20,330
This amendment to the airport

2294
01:22:20,330 --> 01:22:20,997
land use compatibility overlay

2295
01:22:20,997 --> 01:22:23,397
zone regulations would align

2296
01:22:24,801 --> 01:22:25,401
the code with the Memphis

2297
01:22:25,401 --> 01:22:25,969
Miramar Airport land use

2298
01:22:25,969 --> 01:22:27,969
compatibility plan by

2299
01:22:29,772 --> 01:22:30,373
permitting moving and storage

2300
01:22:30,373 --> 01:22:31,740
facilities wholesale and

2301
01:22:31,740 --> 01:22:33,474
distribution and storage uses

2302
01:22:34,945 --> 01:22:35,278
in areas with noise levels up

2303
01:22:35,278 --> 01:22:37,278
to 80db.

2304
01:22:39,683 --> 01:22:40,417
Provided that any associated

2305
01:22:40,417 --> 01:22:41,840
office or retail indoor spaces

2306
01:22:41,840 --> 01:22:44,840
are mitigated to achieve an

2307
01:22:44,454 --> 01:22:45,188
interior noise level of 50db.

2308
01:22:45,188 --> 01:22:47,588
Based on the recommendation

2309
01:22:48,825 --> 01:22:49,559
from the Planning Commission.

2310
01:22:49,559 --> 01:22:50,260
Vehicle and vehicular equipment

2311
01:22:50,260 --> 01:22:53,260
sales and services were added

2312
01:22:54,264 --> 01:22:54,965
as a permitted use but only

2313
01:22:54,965 --> 01:22:55,432
within Memphis Miramar Airport

2314
01:22:55,432 --> 01:22:57,432
influence area.

2315
01:22:59,169 --> 01:23:02,772
Since it is the only area that

2316
01:23:02,772 --> 01:23:03,740
currently identifies this use.

2317
01:23:03,740 --> 01:23:07,340
Now moving on to our last

2318
01:23:08,345 --> 01:23:09,146
category regulatory reforms

2319
01:23:09,146 --> 01:23:09,545
which is comprised of 22 items

2320
01:23:09,545 --> 01:23:11,545
in the ldc.

2321
01:23:13,684 --> 01:23:14,350
Again we will review some of

2322
01:23:14,350 --> 01:23:15,510
these items with more detail

2323
01:23:15,510 --> 01:23:17,821
and all items are contained in

2324
01:23:17,821 --> 01:23:18,689
the backup materials.

2325
01:23:18,689 --> 01:23:21,890
Item one The administrative

2326
01:23:22,926 --> 01:23:23,327
citations have not been revised

2327
01:23:23,327 --> 01:23:23,927
since 2007.

2328
01:23:23,927 --> 01:23:25,927
This amendment increases

2329
01:23:27,897 --> 01:23:29,897
increases existing penalties

2330
01:23:31,935 --> 01:23:32,536
which range from $100 to $1000

2331
01:23:32,536 --> 01:23:32,902
now up to $10,000 per

2332
01:23:32,902 --> 01:23:34,902
violation.

2333
01:23:36,730 --> 01:23:36,472
This is to deter code

2334
01:23:36,472 --> 01:23:38,472
violations.

2335
01:23:40,430 --> 01:23:40,777
Item 81 The administrative

2336
01:23:40,777 --> 01:23:43,413
payment penalties have not been

2337
01:23:43,413 --> 01:23:44,810
revised since 2007.

2338
01:23:44,810 --> 01:23:44,681
This amendment increases

2339
01:23:44,681 --> 01:23:47,810
penalties for causing or

2340
01:23:48,351 --> 01:23:50,751
maintaining a public nuisance

2341
01:23:52,255 --> 01:23:52,989
from $2500 to $10,000 per

2342
01:23:52,989 --> 01:23:55,989
violation and increases the cap

2343
01:24:00,650 --> 01:24:00,764
per parcel or structure from

2344
01:24:00,764 --> 01:24:01,498
$200,000 to $500,000 in a

2345
01:24:01,498 --> 01:24:02,132
calendar year To better reflect

2346
01:24:02,132 --> 01:24:04,132
current administrative and

2347
01:24:05,569 --> 01:24:06,170
investigation costs and to

2348
01:24:06,170 --> 01:24:08,170
better deter violations.

2349
01:24:10,474 --> 01:24:10,808
Item 82 Administrative or Civil

2350
01:24:10,808 --> 01:24:11,507
Penalty.

2351
01:24:11,507 --> 01:24:13,907
Penalties for code violations

2352
01:24:14,511 --> 01:24:14,811
have not been updated since

2353
01:24:14,811 --> 01:24:15,512
2017.

2354
01:24:15,512 --> 01:24:17,912
This amendment proposal raises

2355
01:24:19,650 --> 01:24:20,317
administrative civil penalties

2356
01:24:20,317 --> 01:24:20,884
for code violations to to

2357
01:24:20,884 --> 01:24:22,884
better reflect current

2358
01:24:24,888 --> 01:24:25,555
enforcement costs and serve as

2359
01:24:25,555 --> 01:24:25,988
a stronger deterrent against

2360
01:24:25,988 --> 01:24:27,988
noncompliance.

2361
01:24:29,793 --> 01:24:30,493
It maintains the maximum rate

2362
01:24:30,493 --> 01:24:32,893
of $10,000 per violation limit

2363
01:24:34,798 --> 01:24:35,699
while increasing the cap of

2364
01:24:35,699 --> 01:24:38,990
$400,000 to a $500,000 cap per

2365
01:24:40,370 --> 01:24:40,738
parcel or structure for civil

2366
01:24:40,738 --> 01:24:43,138
penalties imposed for general

2367
01:24:44,107 --> 01:24:44,875
code violations.

2368
01:24:44,875 --> 01:24:45,408
Code enforcement would retain

2369
01:24:45,408 --> 01:24:46,760
discretion to impose

2370
01:24:46,760 --> 01:24:47,344
appropriate penalty amounts

2371
01:24:47,344 --> 01:24:49,344
given the surrounding

2372
01:24:52,716 --> 01:24:53,484
violations.

2373
01:24:53,484 --> 01:24:55,484
>> Item 85 Project and

2374
01:24:57,521 --> 01:24:58,189
environmental appeal fees need

2375
01:24:58,189 --> 01:24:58,889
to be updated to accurately

2376
01:24:58,889 --> 01:25:01,358
reflect staff Time involved in

2377
01:25:01,358 --> 01:25:02,260
appeals are considered by

2378
01:25:02,260 --> 01:25:02,359
planning Commission and City

2379
01:25:02,359 --> 01:25:03,600
Council.

2380
01:25:03,600 --> 01:25:05,460
This proposed amendment would

2381
01:25:06,730 --> 01:25:08,730
increase the planning

2382
01:25:10,601 --> 01:25:11,268
Commission appeal fee from

2383
01:25:11,268 --> 01:25:13,668
$1000 to $1140 and the City

2384
01:25:13,938 --> 01:25:14,538
Council appeal pool fee from

2385
01:25:14,538 --> 01:25:16,538
$1000 to $2380.

2386
01:25:19,143 --> 01:25:19,777
The proposed amendment also

2387
01:25:19,777 --> 01:25:20,510
establishes a reduced fee

2388
01:25:20,510 --> 01:25:23,647
option based on the updated fee

2389
01:25:23,647 --> 01:25:24,315
amounts.

2390
01:25:24,315 --> 01:25:24,915
Appellants MAY receive a 50%

2391
01:25:24,915 --> 01:25:27,315
reduction from the newly

2392
01:25:28,419 --> 01:25:29,860
increased appeal fee if

2393
01:25:29,860 --> 01:25:29,754
the project is within a low

2394
01:25:29,754 --> 01:25:32,154
resource census tract area.

2395
01:25:33,858 --> 01:25:34,591
Identified by the California

2396
01:25:34,591 --> 01:25:36,991
Tax Credit Allocation Committee

2397
01:25:38,329 --> 01:25:38,796
at the time the application is

2398
01:25:38,796 --> 01:25:39,596
deemed complete.

2399
01:25:39,596 --> 01:25:42,596
These new updated fees reflect

2400
01:25:42,900 --> 01:25:43,601
the current estimated costs to

2401
01:25:43,601 --> 01:25:46,100
process these appeals ensuring

2402
01:25:47,471 --> 01:25:49,471
better cost recovery.

2403
01:25:52,709 --> 01:25:53,443
Item 93 This item allows child

2404
01:25:53,443 --> 01:25:54,780
care centers and the Marine

2405
01:25:54,780 --> 01:25:56,478
Corps Air Station Miramar

2406
01:25:57,681 --> 01:25:58,349
Airport influence area

2407
01:25:58,349 --> 01:26:00,749
transition zone as eliminate

2408
01:26:01,485 --> 01:26:02,286
use and establishes a maximum

2409
01:26:02,286 --> 01:26:05,286
floor area ratio of 0.42 for

2410
01:26:06,824 --> 01:26:07,558
the youth which is consistent

2411
01:26:07,558 --> 01:26:08,259
with other small assembly uses.

2412
01:26:08,259 --> 01:26:11,259
It also removes the expansion

2413
01:26:11,796 --> 01:26:12,463
limit for a child care centers

2414
01:26:12,463 --> 01:26:13,970
under previously conforming

2415
01:26:13,970 --> 01:26:15,497
regulations that no longer

2416
01:26:17,235 --> 01:26:17,902
apply as a result of this

2417
01:26:17,902 --> 01:26:20,902
amendment Because the msi is

2418
01:26:20,938 --> 01:26:21,606
Miramar Airport land use

2419
01:26:21,606 --> 01:26:22,173
compatibility plan prohibits

2420
01:26:22,173 --> 01:26:24,573
child care centers in

2421
01:26:26,577 --> 01:26:27,177
the transition zone.

2422
01:26:27,177 --> 01:26:27,912
Adopting this item would

2423
01:26:27,912 --> 01:26:29,814
require a city council overhaul

2424
01:26:29,814 --> 01:26:30,615
of the airport land use

2425
01:26:30,615 --> 01:26:33,150
Commission as provided under

2426
01:26:35,253 --> 01:26:36,540
state law.

2427
01:26:36,540 --> 01:26:36,587
Item 94 Wireless Communication

2428
01:26:36,587 --> 01:26:38,587
Facility regulations

2429
01:26:40,391 --> 01:26:40,991
streamlines the review process

2430
01:26:40,991 --> 01:26:41,626
by reducing the approval

2431
01:26:41,626 --> 01:26:44,260
process level for certain

2432
01:26:45,663 --> 01:26:46,364
wireless communication facility

2433
01:26:46,364 --> 01:26:47,310
applications through a process

2434
01:26:47,310 --> 01:26:50,335
for to a process through and

2435
01:26:50,335 --> 01:26:50,735
from a process three to a

2436
01:26:50,735 --> 01:26:51,335
process two.

2437
01:26:51,335 --> 01:26:53,735
This would allow timely

2438
01:26:54,539 --> 01:26:55,206
approval and avoid requiring

2439
01:26:55,206 --> 01:26:55,740
planning commission approval

2440
01:26:55,740 --> 01:26:57,740
while maintaining a

2441
01:26:58,943 --> 01:26:59,743
discretionary process with

2442
01:26:59,743 --> 01:27:02,743
appeal rights for the public

2443
01:27:04,348 --> 01:27:05,216
and applicant.

2444
01:27:05,216 --> 01:27:05,883
Item 1 or 2 proposes how to

2445
01:27:05,883 --> 01:27:08,283
calculate the vehicle Miles

2446
01:27:09,320 --> 01:27:10,210
traveled reduction measure

2447
01:27:10,210 --> 01:27:10,688
pilot fee for that for

2448
01:27:10,688 --> 01:27:12,688
development applications and

2449
01:27:13,625 --> 01:27:14,325
mobility zones two and three

2450
01:27:14,325 --> 01:27:15,920
that choose to pay the buyout

2451
01:27:15,920 --> 01:27:18,692
fee if they are unable to

2452
01:27:19,163 --> 01:27:19,531
implement the reduction

2453
01:27:19,531 --> 01:27:20,264
measures.

2454
01:27:20,264 --> 01:27:22,734
Now hand off the PowerPoint to

2455
01:27:22,734 --> 01:27:23,334
dry up passenger to discuss

2456
01:27:23,334 --> 01:27:25,334
the downtown amendments.

2457
01:27:27,371 --> 01:27:28,390
Thank you Megan.

2458
01:27:28,390 --> 01:27:28,740
There are 30 proposed items

2459
01:27:28,740 --> 01:27:29,441
affecting the Center City and

2460
01:27:29,441 --> 01:27:31,841
Gaslamp Quarter Plan District

2461
01:27:32,544 --> 01:27:33,110
ordinances which regulate land

2462
01:27:33,110 --> 01:27:33,778
use and development in

2463
01:27:33,778 --> 01:27:34,780
the downtown community plan

2464
01:27:34,780 --> 01:27:36,780
area.

2465
01:27:37,248 --> 01:27:37,782
One additional item proposes

2466
01:27:37,782 --> 01:27:38,450
minor amendments to

2467
01:27:38,450 --> 01:27:40,850
the downtown community plan.

2468
01:27:42,220 --> 01:27:42,887
The downtown items are

2469
01:27:42,887 --> 01:27:43,521
organized into the same five

2470
01:27:43,521 --> 01:27:45,921
categories as the citywide

2471
01:27:46,624 --> 01:27:47,325
amendments.

2472
01:27:47,325 --> 01:27:47,959
Most are minor clarifications

2473
01:27:47,959 --> 01:27:48,326
or refinements to existing

2474
01:27:48,326 --> 01:27:50,326
programs.

2475
01:27:50,929 --> 01:27:51,562
Over the next slides I'll

2476
01:27:51,562 --> 01:27:52,230
highlight some of the more

2477
01:27:52,230 --> 01:27:54,630
substantive items with more

2478
01:27:54,966 --> 01:27:55,834
information on all proposed

2479
01:27:55,834 --> 01:27:58,234
downtown items available in

2480
01:28:00,271 --> 01:28:01,390
the backup materials.

2481
01:28:01,390 --> 01:28:01,740
>> These first slides focus on

2482
01:28:01,740 --> 01:28:04,140
amendments that align downtown

2483
01:28:04,876 --> 01:28:05,377
regulations with climate equity

2484
01:28:05,377 --> 01:28:06,770
or housing goals.

2485
01:28:06,770 --> 01:28:08,477
Downtown zoning code includes

2486
01:28:09,614 --> 01:28:10,181
several incentive programs

2487
01:28:10,181 --> 01:28:10,815
designed to encourage

2488
01:28:10,815 --> 01:28:11,518
development in return for

2489
01:28:11,518 --> 01:28:13,918
public benefits or development

2490
01:28:14,452 --> 01:28:15,153
amenities.

2491
01:28:15,153 --> 01:28:15,887
>> Most of the items within

2492
01:28:15,887 --> 01:28:18,823
this category fall within these

2493
01:28:18,823 --> 01:28:19,624
programs.

2494
01:28:19,624 --> 01:28:22,624
Item one expands the existing

2495
01:28:24,620 --> 01:28:24,663
downtown eco roof density bonus

2496
01:28:24,663 --> 01:28:25,330
by adding an additional

2497
01:28:25,330 --> 01:28:25,997
incentive for projects that

2498
01:28:25,997 --> 01:28:28,397
provide a rooftop community

2499
01:28:29,334 --> 01:28:29,868
garden that is accessible to

2500
01:28:29,868 --> 01:28:30,502
building occupants.

2501
01:28:30,502 --> 01:28:32,902
It also encourages rooftop

2502
01:28:34,139 --> 01:28:34,840
landscaping to meet mechanical

2503
01:28:34,840 --> 01:28:35,540
screening requirements, giving

2504
01:28:35,540 --> 01:28:37,940
projects more flexibility and

2505
01:28:41,312 --> 01:28:41,946
supporting greener rooftops.

2506
01:28:41,946 --> 01:28:42,614
>> Item two streamlines

2507
01:28:42,614 --> 01:28:45,140
development in the downtown

2508
01:28:46,284 --> 01:28:47,119
coastal zone overlay.

2509
01:28:47,119 --> 01:28:47,752
This overlay is a small area

2510
01:28:47,752 --> 01:28:49,752
primarily located between

2511
01:28:51,323 --> 01:28:52,230
the railroad tracks and Pacific

2512
01:28:52,230 --> 01:28:52,724
Highway outside of the Coastal

2513
01:28:52,724 --> 01:28:54,724
Commission's appealable area.

2514
01:28:56,928 --> 01:28:57,595
For projects within this

2515
01:28:57,595 --> 01:28:58,196
overlay that provide public

2516
01:28:58,196 --> 01:29:00,196
benefits or development

2517
01:29:01,232 --> 01:29:01,933
amenities through existing

2518
01:29:01,933 --> 01:29:02,634
downtown for area ratio bonus

2519
01:29:02,634 --> 01:29:05,340
programs, this amendment would

2520
01:29:06,304 --> 01:29:06,972
reduce the approval level from

2521
01:29:06,972 --> 01:29:07,572
process to two process one.

2522
01:29:07,572 --> 01:29:09,972
Provided the project is

2523
01:29:10,408 --> 01:29:11,109
consistent with the local

2524
01:29:11,109 --> 01:29:13,509
coastal program and satisfies

2525
01:29:14,780 --> 01:29:15,546
required coastal findings.

2526
01:29:15,546 --> 01:29:17,946
Item six would encourage

2527
01:29:19,985 --> 01:29:20,652
development on small

2528
01:29:20,652 --> 01:29:21,253
underutilized downtown lots.

2529
01:29:21,253 --> 01:29:24,253
It would establish a new

2530
01:29:25,157 --> 01:29:25,857
density bonus and provide

2531
01:29:25,857 --> 01:29:26,458
limited regulatory exemptions

2532
01:29:26,458 --> 01:29:27,250
that address challenges

2533
01:29:27,250 --> 01:29:29,250
associated with tower

2534
01:29:32,864 --> 01:29:33,166
development on smaller parcels

2535
01:29:33,166 --> 01:29:33,832
.

2536
01:29:33,832 --> 01:29:36,232
>> Item eight would support

2537
01:29:37,269 --> 01:29:37,903
revitalization along c Street

2538
01:29:37,903 --> 01:29:38,537
by offering an additional

2539
01:29:38,537 --> 01:29:40,937
density bonus for projects

2540
01:29:42,774 --> 01:29:43,475
along the transit corridor that

2541
01:29:43,475 --> 01:29:44,760
also use at least one other

2542
01:29:44,760 --> 01:29:46,760
downtown bonus program.

2543
01:29:47,746 --> 01:29:48,446
This amendment would strengthen

2544
01:29:48,446 --> 01:29:49,147
incentives for higher density

2545
01:29:49,147 --> 01:29:49,848
transit supportive development

2546
01:29:49,848 --> 01:29:52,751
along the c Street corridor in

2547
01:29:52,751 --> 01:29:53,519
the downtown area.

2548
01:29:53,519 --> 01:29:55,919
Item nine would promote

2549
01:29:58,230 --> 01:29:58,490
preservation of existing mature

2550
01:29:58,490 --> 01:30:00,490
trees downtown.

2551
01:30:01,727 --> 01:30:02,294
This concept originated from

2552
01:30:02,294 --> 01:30:02,961
the 2025 City Council

2553
01:30:02,961 --> 01:30:03,628
Environment Committee which

2554
01:30:03,628 --> 01:30:06,164
found that downtown has lost

2555
01:30:06,164 --> 01:30:06,865
more tree canopy than any other

2556
01:30:06,865 --> 01:30:09,265
community because mature trees

2557
01:30:10,368 --> 01:30:11,360
provide greater ecological

2558
01:30:11,360 --> 01:30:11,337
benefits than newly planted

2559
01:30:11,337 --> 01:30:13,337
trees.

2560
01:30:14,540 --> 01:30:15,274
This item would grant a 0.2

2561
01:30:15,274 --> 01:30:15,840
floor area ratio bonus for each

2562
01:30:15,840 --> 01:30:17,840
mature tree preserved.

2563
01:30:19,778 --> 01:30:20,546
It would also provide options

2564
01:30:20,546 --> 01:30:23,546
for 2 to 1 replacement on site

2565
01:30:23,883 --> 01:30:24,650
or off site within the downtown

2566
01:30:24,650 --> 01:30:25,384
area or a payment to

2567
01:30:25,384 --> 01:30:28,984
the downtown for bonus fund for

2568
01:30:29,321 --> 01:30:30,220
public improvements in addition

2569
01:30:30,220 --> 01:30:33,220
to existing urban tree canopy

2570
01:30:33,892 --> 01:30:34,526
fund requirements.

2571
01:30:34,526 --> 01:30:35,226
>> The downtown items also

2572
01:30:35,226 --> 01:30:37,226
include 12 proposed amendments

2573
01:30:39,300 --> 01:30:39,698
in the clarification category

2574
01:30:39,698 --> 01:30:42,980
to make downtown regulations

2575
01:30:43,235 --> 01:30:43,535
easier to understand and apply

2576
01:30:43,535 --> 01:30:44,102
.

2577
01:30:44,102 --> 01:30:44,703
These items are fairly

2578
01:30:44,703 --> 01:30:45,371
straightforward and more

2579
01:30:45,371 --> 01:30:46,572
information is available in

2580
01:30:46,572 --> 01:30:49,572
the downtown update list and

2581
01:30:51,477 --> 01:30:52,178
draft code language materials.

2582
01:30:52,178 --> 01:30:52,845
The downtown amendments also

2583
01:30:52,845 --> 01:30:55,845
included one item to ensure

2584
01:30:56,480 --> 01:30:56,715
compliance with state law.

2585
01:30:56,715 --> 01:30:57,349
Item 22 would provide minor

2586
01:30:57,349 --> 01:30:59,749
amendments to the downtown

2587
01:31:01,253 --> 01:31:01,921
community plan to align it with

2588
01:31:01,921 --> 01:31:02,621
the current Center City and

2589
01:31:02,621 --> 01:31:05,210
Gaslamp Quarter Plan District

2590
01:31:05,591 --> 01:31:06,258
ordinances.

2591
01:31:06,258 --> 01:31:06,925
These are minor updates that

2592
01:31:06,925 --> 01:31:08,925
remove outdated references,

2593
01:31:10,628 --> 01:31:11,363
text graphics and images so

2594
01:31:11,363 --> 01:31:11,964
that the plan reflects existing

2595
01:31:11,964 --> 01:31:12,531
regulations and remains

2596
01:31:12,531 --> 01:31:14,531
internally consistent.

2597
01:31:15,601 --> 01:31:16,302
This would also amend

2598
01:31:16,302 --> 01:31:16,969
the city's general plan due to

2599
01:31:16,969 --> 01:31:17,503
the downtown community plan

2600
01:31:17,503 --> 01:31:19,903
being a component of

2601
01:31:19,972 --> 01:31:21,972
the general plan.

2602
01:31:24,176 --> 01:31:24,777
There are also three proposed

2603
01:31:24,777 --> 01:31:25,311
corrections included in

2604
01:31:25,311 --> 01:31:27,311
the downtown items.

2605
01:31:28,648 --> 01:31:29,381
Item 25 updates The Gaslamp

2606
01:31:29,381 --> 01:31:32,981
Quarter land use tables so that

2607
01:31:33,252 --> 01:31:33,953
its use categories along align

2608
01:31:33,953 --> 01:31:34,587
with the citywide use tables.

2609
01:31:34,587 --> 01:31:36,987
This would remove outdated

2610
01:31:37,723 --> 01:31:38,424
terminology improve code

2611
01:31:38,424 --> 01:31:39,125
consistency and make it easier

2612
01:31:39,125 --> 01:31:42,125
to identify permitted uses in

2613
01:31:42,595 --> 01:31:43,295
the Gaslamp quarter.

2614
01:31:43,295 --> 01:31:43,896
Finally the downtown items

2615
01:31:43,896 --> 01:31:45,896
include seven regulatory

2616
01:31:47,733 --> 01:31:48,501
reforms currently temporary

2617
01:31:48,501 --> 01:31:50,901
community focused uses on

2618
01:31:52,571 --> 01:31:53,206
downtown private property which

2619
01:31:53,206 --> 01:31:53,839
are referred to as outdoor

2620
01:31:53,839 --> 01:31:56,239
activities in the downtown

2621
01:31:57,643 --> 01:31:58,344
Patios.

2622
01:31:58,344 --> 01:31:59,110
Require a discretionary permit

2623
01:31:59,110 --> 01:32:01,581
which can encourage or sorry

2624
01:32:01,581 --> 01:32:02,181
which can discourage activation

2625
01:32:02,181 --> 01:32:02,515
of underutilized outdoor

2626
01:32:02,515 --> 01:32:04,515
spaces.

2627
01:32:06,452 --> 01:32:07,860
Item 27 would make these

2628
01:32:07,860 --> 01:32:07,720
activities a permitted use

2629
01:32:07,720 --> 01:32:09,720
downtown encouraging more

2630
01:32:10,188 --> 01:32:10,890
temporary community serving

2631
01:32:10,890 --> 01:32:11,557
uses such as farmer's or

2632
01:32:11,557 --> 01:32:13,957
artisan markets on private

2633
01:32:15,427 --> 01:32:16,128
property.

2634
01:32:16,128 --> 01:32:19,128
>> Outreach for the ldc Update

2635
01:32:20,632 --> 01:32:21,267
Updating a public comment

2636
01:32:21,267 --> 01:32:21,968

three community planning groups

2643
01:32:34,313 --> 01:32:34,948
and one advisory board to

2644
01:32:34,948 --> 01:32:37,348
discuss specific ldc items

2645
01:32:41,120 --> 01:32:41,421
impacting their community areas

2646
01:32:41,421 --> 01:32:42,187
.

2647
01:32:42,187 --> 01:32:45,187
>> On JANUARY 27th the cpc

2648
01:32:46,590 --> 01:32:46,759
passed the motion shown here on

2649
01:32:46,759 --> 01:32:47,460
this slide to approve the ldc

2650
01:32:47,460 --> 01:32:49,460
subcommittee's recommendation

in FEBRUARY to amend their

2655
01:33:00,172 --> 01:33:00,807
recommendation for the 2026 ldc

2656
01:33:00,807 --> 01:33:02,807
update approval timeline.

2657
01:33:04,911 --> 01:33:05,345

01:34:41,608 --> 01:34:42,175
>> Please proceed.

2718
01:34:42,175 --> 01:34:42,642
Thank you very much.

2719
01:34:42,642 --> 01:34:44,642
Good afternoon.

2720
01:34:45,278 --> 01:34:46,146
Council members.

2721
01:34:46,146 --> 01:34:46,747
My name is Amy Fossett and I'm

2722
01:34:46,747 --> 01:34:49,747
the PRESIDENT And ceo of

2723
01:34:49,883 --> 01:34:50,317
the San Diego building industry

2724
01:34:50,317 --> 01:34:51,150
Association.

2725
01:34:51,150 --> 01:34:52,190
And as you very well know, we

2726
01:34:52,190 --> 01:34:54,754
are still much in a housing

2727
01:34:54,754 --> 01:34:55,455
crisis.

2728
01:34:55,455 --> 01:34:56,156
And while the city has made

2729
01:34:56,156 --> 01:34:59,156
clear progress, it is critical

2730
01:34:59,159 --> 01:34:59,693
that we not take our foot off

2731
01:34:59,693 --> 01:35:00,427
the gas and retreat.

2732
01:35:00,427 --> 01:35:03,427
Anything less than an adamantly

2733
01:35:03,830 --> 01:35:04,531
pro housing philosophy that

2734
01:35:04,531 --> 01:35:05,165
said the package before you is

2735
01:35:05,165 --> 01:35:08,165
the product of an immense

2736
01:35:08,401 --> 01:35:09,350
amount of work from various

2737
01:35:09,350 --> 01:35:09,703
stakeholders including our

2738
01:35:09,703 --> 01:35:12,703
members in the Urban Council

2739
01:35:13,574 --> 01:35:14,207
who painstakingly reviewed

2740
01:35:14,207 --> 01:35:14,775
these amendments in their

2741
01:35:14,775 --> 01:35:16,775
different iterations.

2742
01:35:19,790 --> 01:35:19,712
Thank you to staff for working

2743
01:35:19,712 --> 01:35:20,346
with industry to identify

2744
01:35:20,346 --> 01:35:22,746
policies that needed more

2745
01:35:24,510 --> 01:35:24,685
vetting or hearing our pleas

2746
01:35:24,685 --> 01:35:25,850
for amendments in Planning

2747
01:35:25,850 --> 01:35:25,752
Commission.

2748
01:35:25,752 --> 01:35:28,755
We believe this is a better

2749
01:35:28,755 --> 01:35:29,490
update because of that in

2750
01:35:29,490 --> 01:35:30,389
totality This is a package that

2751
01:35:30,389 --> 01:35:33,627
we are proud to support and I

2752
01:35:33,627 --> 01:35:34,610
hope you will vote in favor of

2753
01:35:34,610 --> 01:35:36,610
its adoption.

2754
01:35:37,300 --> 01:35:39,300
Thank you.

2755
01:35:42,202 --> 01:35:44,602
>> John Allen Good afternoon

2756
01:35:45,270 --> 01:35:47,400
City Council Thank you for your

2757
01:35:47,400 --> 01:35:47,741
time today.

2758
01:35:47,741 --> 01:35:48,308
My name is John Allen.

2759
01:35:48,308 --> 01:35:49,900
Founding Principle of

2760
01:35:49,900 --> 01:35:51,900
Streamlined Development Group

2761
01:35:51,445 --> 01:35:51,779
and the Chair of Business Urban

2762
01:35:51,779 --> 01:35:52,479
Council.

2763
01:35:52,479 --> 01:35:55,479
We are charged with reviewing

2764
01:35:56,583 --> 01:35:57,251
and advising the organization

2765
01:35:57,251 --> 01:35:59,651
on city specific policies.

2766
01:36:00,387 --> 01:36:00,988
And we're highly active in

2767
01:36:00,988 --> 01:36:01,588
reviewing the 2026 Land

2768
01:36:01,588 --> 01:36:02,322
Development Code update.

2769
01:36:02,322 --> 01:36:05,258
First of all I'd like to thank

2770
01:36:05,258 --> 01:36:05,992
Heidi in the planning team for

2771
01:36:05,992 --> 01:36:08,392
their countless discussions and

2772
01:36:09,997 --> 01:36:10,331
willingness to dive into detail

2773
01:36:10,331 --> 01:36:11,980
.

2774
01:36:11,980 --> 01:36:11,767
It means a great deal to know

2775
01:36:11,767 --> 01:36:12,132
that there is a ready ear at

2776
01:36:12,132 --> 01:36:14,132
the city.

2777
01:36:15,269 --> 01:36:15,970
We want to say that the package

2778
01:36:15,970 --> 01:36:18,370
has evolved significantly and

2779
01:36:19,840 --> 01:36:20,574
is something that is largely a

2780
01:36:20,574 --> 01:36:20,874
positive addition to the city's

2781
01:36:20,874 --> 01:36:21,475
code.

2782
01:36:21,475 --> 01:36:24,475
It will benefit not only

2783
01:36:24,711 --> 01:36:25,312
builders but more importantly

2784
01:36:25,312 --> 01:36:25,979
everyone who is feeling

2785
01:36:25,979 --> 01:36:26,312
the pressure of the housing

2786
01:36:26,312 --> 01:36:28,312
deficit.

2787
01:36:29,883 --> 01:36:30,584
I'd like to add that we while

2788
01:36:30,584 --> 01:36:31,285
we support this package we're

2789
01:36:31,285 --> 01:36:34,285
eager to review these policies

2790
01:36:34,488 --> 01:36:35,155
Once adopted to continue to

2791
01:36:35,155 --> 01:36:35,489
refine them for the maximum

2792
01:36:35,489 --> 01:36:37,489
impact.

2793
01:36:39,360 --> 01:36:40,270
Specifically we believe there's

2794
01:36:40,270 --> 01:36:40,561
an incredible opportunity to

2795
01:36:40,561 --> 01:36:41,194
enhance our for sale

2796
01:36:41,194 --> 01:36:41,629
opportunities through code

2797
01:36:41,629 --> 01:36:43,629
improvements.

2798
01:36:44,298 --> 01:36:44,999
We commit to keeping this

2799
01:36:44,999 --> 01:36:47,999
Council and and planning staff

2800
01:36:48,350 --> 01:36:48,803
in front of our discussion.

2801
01:36:48,803 --> 01:36:49,136
>> In closing please adopt this

2802
01:36:49,136 --> 01:36:49,637
package.

2803
01:36:49,637 --> 01:36:51,637
Thank you Heather.

2804
01:36:53,140 --> 01:36:55,140
Good afternoon everyone.

2805
01:36:58,345 --> 01:36:58,682
Heather Riley with Alan

2806
01:36:58,682 --> 01:36:59,312
Mickens.

2807
01:36:59,312 --> 01:37:00,470
Today I'm actually here on

2808
01:37:00,470 --> 01:37:00,381
behalf of the Kids Bay Learning

2809
01:37:00,381 --> 01:37:02,381
Center.

2810
01:37:02,817 --> 01:37:03,451
They're the original proponent

2811
01:37:03,451 --> 01:37:06,451
of item 93 on your chart.

2812
01:37:07,588 --> 01:37:08,289
And this came up because of all

2813
01:37:08,289 --> 01:37:08,922
the changes you guys have been

2814
01:37:08,922 --> 01:37:09,556
so great at doing through

2815
01:37:09,556 --> 01:37:09,890
the community plan update

2816
01:37:09,890 --> 01:37:11,890
process.

2817
01:37:12,626 --> 01:37:13,260
We realized a very strange

2818
01:37:13,260 --> 01:37:16,260
quirk of the mcas Miramar

2819
01:37:17,640 --> 01:37:17,765
Airport land use compatibility

2820
01:37:17,765 --> 01:37:18,332
plan prevented child care in

2821
01:37:18,332 --> 01:37:20,332
the transition zones.

2822
01:37:22,503 --> 01:37:23,690
Nowhere else in the city was

2823
01:37:23,690 --> 01:37:23,670
that code change made.

2824
01:37:23,670 --> 01:37:26,700
>> It's a weird quirk.

2825
01:37:26,574 --> 01:37:27,241
We have no idea why it's there

2826
01:37:27,241 --> 01:37:27,541
but it doesn't need to be

2827
01:37:27,541 --> 01:37:28,242
there.

2828
01:37:28,242 --> 01:37:30,642
Particularly since the Kearny

2829
01:37:31,746 --> 01:37:32,380
Mesa and University plans are

2830
01:37:32,380 --> 01:37:32,680
encouraging m x and remix

2831
01:37:32,680 --> 01:37:34,680
zones.

2832
01:37:36,551 --> 01:37:37,251
So there's a lot of development

2833
01:37:37,251 --> 01:37:37,919
happening in that neighborhood

2834
01:37:37,919 --> 01:37:38,653
and we want to put childcare

2835
01:37:38,653 --> 01:37:41,389
where that development will be.

2836
01:37:41,389 --> 01:37:41,689
Many of you know my kids are

2837
01:37:41,689 --> 01:37:42,389
older.

2838
01:37:42,389 --> 01:37:42,890
They don't need child care But

2839
01:37:42,890 --> 01:37:44,890
this is personal.

2840
01:37:45,626 --> 01:37:46,427
I remember the stress when my

2841
01:37:46,427 --> 01:37:50,270
kid was in my stomach 19 years

2842
01:37:50,298 --> 01:37:51,650
ago and I was trying to find

2843
01:37:51,650 --> 01:37:51,599
daycare near where I worked or

2844
01:37:51,599 --> 01:37:52,299
near where I lived.

2845
01:37:52,299 --> 01:37:55,903
And it's not a stress We need

2846
01:37:55,903 --> 01:37:56,237
to have our families go

2847
01:37:56,237 --> 01:37:56,870
through.

2848
01:37:56,870 --> 01:37:57,205
>> So please support that

2849
01:37:57,205 --> 01:37:57,571
change.

2850
01:37:57,571 --> 01:37:59,173
Thank you.

2851
01:37:59,173 --> 01:38:01,173
Thank you, Mindy.

2852
01:38:04,912 --> 01:38:05,513
>> Okay.

2853
01:38:05,513 --> 01:38:06,247
>> Good afternoon Mindy

2854
01:38:06,247 --> 01:38:08,647
Hartstein representing t Mobile

2855
01:38:09,584 --> 01:38:13,184
And I'm very specific as to

2856
01:38:14,389 --> 01:38:15,122
the wireless proposed changes.

2857
01:38:15,122 --> 01:38:15,656
While we are supportive

2858
01:38:15,656 --> 01:38:18,560
obviously of many of

2859
01:38:19,600 --> 01:38:19,660
the changes that were in

2860
01:38:19,660 --> 01:38:20,261
equipment enclosure size

2861
01:38:20,261 --> 01:38:22,261
increase increase in

2862
01:38:24,131 --> 01:38:27,131
the antenna stand off distance

2863
01:38:28,202 --> 01:38:29,690
process review shifts which

2864
01:38:29,690 --> 01:38:32,690
allow for quicker review and

2865
01:38:32,573 --> 01:38:33,207
streamlining the process and

2866
01:38:33,207 --> 01:38:33,775
also a path for temporary

2867
01:38:33,775 --> 01:38:34,175
communication wireless

2868
01:38:34,175 --> 01:38:36,175
facilities.

2869
01:38:38,460 --> 01:38:41,460
We do have some concerns

2870
01:38:43,510 --> 01:38:43,350
centered on very specific items

2871
01:38:43,350 --> 01:38:43,951
.

2872
01:38:43,951 --> 01:38:44,652
We've supplied a letter.

2873
01:38:44,652 --> 01:38:47,520
Hopefully you've all received

2874
01:38:48,389 --> 01:38:49,570
that for consideration.

2875
01:38:49,570 --> 01:38:49,824
But one is the small cell

2876
01:38:49,824 --> 01:38:52,824
facility design which is more

2877
01:38:53,595 --> 01:38:56,595
restrictive than the fcc small

2878
01:38:57,565 --> 01:38:58,332
cell order and basically would

2879
01:38:58,332 --> 01:39:01,932
limit height and type of small

2880
01:39:02,302 --> 01:39:03,370
wireless facilities to only

2881
01:39:03,370 --> 01:39:03,637
light pole attachments And that

2882
01:39:03,637 --> 01:39:06,637
should not be the case.

2883
01:39:08,376 --> 01:39:09,110
>> I'm running out of time but

2884
01:39:09,110 --> 01:39:12,110
for a temporary community Thank

2885
01:39:12,380 --> 01:39:13,381
you for that Comments.

2886
01:39:13,381 --> 01:39:14,820
We've asked for a I do have to

2887
01:39:14,820 --> 01:39:17,485
be fair to everybody but thank

2888
01:39:17,485 --> 01:39:17,818
you for that Concluding

2889
01:39:17,818 --> 01:39:18,486
comment.

2890
01:39:18,486 --> 01:39:21,486
Jeffrey Tudor you have times

2891
01:39:22,560 --> 01:39:22,724
cited to you by and give it as

2892
01:39:22,724 --> 01:39:23,258
well as Yvonne Jones You'll

2893
01:39:23,258 --> 01:39:25,258
have three minutes.

2894
01:39:27,862 --> 01:39:29,862
Please proceed.

2895
01:39:33,401 --> 01:39:34,102
Oh okay.

2896
01:39:34,102 --> 01:39:37,102
Maybe you get maintenance on

2897
01:39:38,720 --> 01:39:38,473
this or get it into the budget

2898
01:39:38,473 --> 01:39:39,400
I think.

2899
01:39:39,400 --> 01:39:41,400
>> All right.

2900
01:39:42,510 --> 01:39:43,311
Council members so we don't

2901
01:39:43,311 --> 01:39:43,978
have a lot of input on this

2902
01:39:43,978 --> 01:39:44,312
year's land development code

2903
01:39:44,312 --> 01:39:46,312
update.

2904
01:39:47,682 --> 01:39:48,316
We interact with staff

2905
01:39:48,316 --> 01:39:50,716
previously in the process.

2906
01:39:52,721 --> 01:39:53,621
It's a fairly technical package

2907
01:39:53,621 --> 01:39:54,389
this year But I did want to do

2908
01:39:54,389 --> 01:39:57,626
is if you go to the next slide

2909
01:39:57,626 --> 01:39:58,293
just focus on one of the items

2910
01:39:58,293 --> 01:40:01,293
in here that MAY be

2911
01:40:02,531 --> 01:40:03,990
underestimated and 103 and

2912
01:40:03,990 --> 01:40:03,598
that's the small light

2913
01:40:03,598 --> 01:40:05,598
subdivision item.

2914
01:40:06,868 --> 01:40:07,536
This is a implementation of

2915
01:40:07,536 --> 01:40:09,936
something called the Starter

2916
01:40:11,506 --> 01:40:11,840
Starter Home Revitalization Act

2917
01:40:11,840 --> 01:40:12,707
.

2918
01:40:12,707 --> 01:40:13,575
And what it does is it allows

2919
01:40:13,575 --> 01:40:17,445
you to subdivide a lot and this

2920
01:40:17,445 --> 01:40:18,148
is ministerial in a sense It's

2921
01:40:18,148 --> 01:40:21,715
like sb ten but not something

2922
01:40:21,715 --> 01:40:22,417
we opt into as ministerial You

2923
01:40:22,417 --> 01:40:22,818
can create a subdivision of up

2924
01:40:22,818 --> 01:40:24,818
to ten lots.

2925
01:40:26,755 --> 01:40:30,925
The building on those can be up

2926
01:40:30,925 --> 01:40:31,660
to 1700 and 50ft and you can

2927
01:40:31,660 --> 01:40:32,393
subdivide down to a minimum lot

2928
01:40:32,393 --> 01:40:35,393
size of 1200 square feet and

2929
01:40:35,997 --> 01:40:38,397
that's actually consistent with

2930
01:40:39,768 --> 01:40:40,680
what for example we do with sb

2931
01:40:40,680 --> 01:40:40,702
nine.

2932
01:40:40,702 --> 01:40:41,470
The difference is is this

2933
01:40:41,470 --> 01:40:44,470
doesn't have a home ownership

2934
01:40:44,872 --> 01:40:45,741
requirement but what it does

2935
01:40:45,741 --> 01:40:49,941
but it is limited to our vacant

2936
01:40:50,110 --> 01:40:50,645
lots which is either there

2937
01:40:50,645 --> 01:40:51,446
completely empty or mostly

2938
01:40:51,446 --> 01:40:55,646
empty as it turns out with some

2939
01:40:57,386 --> 01:40:58,253
other restrictions.

2940
01:40:58,253 --> 01:41:02,324
There is a far flung area ratio

2941
01:41:02,324 --> 01:41:03,191
increase that comes with this.

2942
01:41:03,191 --> 01:41:04,590
So whereas on a typical single

2943
01:41:04,590 --> 01:41:06,895
family lot you would be allowed

2944
01:41:06,895 --> 01:41:07,562
say you know 3000ft of

2945
01:41:07,562 --> 01:41:09,962
development on a 5000 square

2946
01:41:11,934 --> 01:41:12,534
foot lot, this basically

2947
01:41:12,534 --> 01:41:13,468
doubles that to 6000.

2948
01:41:13,468 --> 01:41:16,805
So that far increase is not

2949
01:41:16,805 --> 01:41:18,805
insignificant.

2950
01:41:20,842 --> 01:41:21,577
And then there's also item 40

2951
01:41:21,577 --> 01:41:24,577
which does this for multifamily

2952
01:41:25,681 --> 01:41:26,348
lots But for the sake of

2953
01:41:26,348 --> 01:41:26,714
completeness I'll just skip

2954
01:41:26,714 --> 01:41:27,282
over that.

2955
01:41:27,282 --> 01:41:30,510
Go to the next slide.

2956
01:41:30,510 --> 01:41:30,919
This is basically what it looks

2957
01:41:30,919 --> 01:41:31,720
like You have a large lot maybe

2958
01:41:31,720 --> 01:41:35,858
it has one house on it and you

2959
01:41:35,858 --> 01:41:36,358
can subdivide that and now

2960
01:41:36,358 --> 01:41:38,358
create 11 parcels.

2961
01:41:40,962 --> 01:41:41,663
Yeah with ten new items.

2962
01:41:41,663 --> 01:41:42,598
Now go to the next slide.

2963
01:41:42,598 --> 01:41:45,334
And this is really what I want

2964
01:41:45,334 --> 01:41:46,101
to talk about.

2965
01:41:46,101 --> 01:41:49,101
This is all new restricted

2966
01:41:49,405 --> 01:41:49,972
vacant lots and it has

2967
01:41:49,972 --> 01:41:50,671
exemptions for certain

2968
01:41:50,671 --> 01:41:52,671
environmentally sensitive and

2969
01:41:54,810 --> 01:41:55,511
fire areas And we think that's

2970
01:41:55,511 --> 01:41:56,111
a useful part of this because

2971
01:41:56,111 --> 01:41:58,511
rather than applying it

2972
01:41:59,113 --> 01:41:59,715
everywhere in the city and

2973
01:41:59,715 --> 01:42:00,315
putting that development

2974
01:42:00,315 --> 01:42:02,715
pressure on every single

2975
01:42:04,520 --> 01:42:05,187
homeowner, this is only for a

2976
01:42:05,187 --> 01:42:08,187
certain and we've created a

2977
01:42:08,356 --> 01:42:09,580
market where people can come in

2978
01:42:09,580 --> 01:42:09,791
and develop these vacant lots

2979
01:42:09,791 --> 01:42:13,391
and a market where somebody who

2980
01:42:14,263 --> 01:42:14,930
just wants to buy a house and

2981
01:42:14,930 --> 01:42:15,597
live in it isn't facing that

2982
01:42:15,597 --> 01:42:17,597
competition from developers.

2983
01:42:19,335 --> 01:42:20,690
So we think that's an important

2984
01:42:20,690 --> 01:42:23,669
feature And the final aspect to

2985
01:42:23,772 --> 01:42:24,406
this is if you go to the last

2986
01:42:24,406 --> 01:42:24,974
slide is we have something

2987
01:42:24,974 --> 01:42:26,974
that's ongoing called

2988
01:42:28,760 --> 01:42:28,344
neighborhood homes for all of

2989
01:42:28,344 --> 01:42:29,780
us.

2990
01:42:29,780 --> 01:42:32,281
And rather than create a whole

2991
01:42:32,281 --> 01:42:32,948
new set of development

2992
01:42:32,948 --> 01:42:33,749
regulations for that program

2993
01:42:33,749 --> 01:42:37,949
but we would like to use is

2994
01:42:40,456 --> 01:42:41,123
that program to create

2995
01:42:41,123 --> 01:42:41,457
pre-approved plans for that

2996
01:42:41,457 --> 01:42:43,457
program.

2997
01:42:43,525 --> 01:42:46,525
Thank you for that Concluding

2998
01:42:48,330 --> 01:42:51,330
comment, Bob, because it's we

2999
01:42:53,234 --> 01:42:53,936
all know that real estate is

3000
01:42:53,936 --> 01:42:54,303
the most valuable resource in

3001
01:42:54,303 --> 01:42:56,303
this city.

3002
01:42:57,740 --> 01:42:58,440
It's obvious that this current

3003
01:42:58,440 --> 01:43:01,440
item reflects the ongoing and

3004
01:43:02,278 --> 01:43:03,120
continuous housing pressure

3005
01:43:03,120 --> 01:43:03,412
resulting from our ever growing

3006
01:43:03,412 --> 01:43:05,412
population.

3007
01:43:08,250 --> 01:43:08,884
If you ask your constituents

3008
01:43:08,884 --> 01:43:11,353
they will tell you that

3009
01:43:11,353 --> 01:43:12,540
population is the one problem

3010
01:43:12,540 --> 01:43:12,521
in this city that drives all

3011
01:43:12,521 --> 01:43:14,521
other problems.

3012
01:43:16,359 --> 01:43:17,590
Yet this city government

3013
01:43:17,590 --> 01:43:20,590
continues to conduct the city

3014
01:43:21,163 --> 01:43:21,831
of San Diego as a sanctuary

3015
01:43:21,831 --> 01:43:22,198
city worsening all of these

3016
01:43:22,198 --> 01:43:24,198
problems.

3017
01:43:26,402 --> 01:43:27,350
I suspect all members of this

3018
01:43:27,350 --> 01:43:27,703
council are suffering from

3019
01:43:27,703 --> 01:43:30,103
stage four Trump Derangement

3020
01:43:30,873 --> 01:43:31,641
Syndrome.

3021
01:43:31,641 --> 01:43:32,208
What other excuse do you have

3022
01:43:32,208 --> 01:43:34,608
for refusing to place

3023
01:43:36,110 --> 01:43:36,745
the picture of our PRESIDENT In

3024
01:43:36,745 --> 01:43:40,583
the place of honor on that wall

3025
01:43:40,583 --> 01:43:41,284
that had been reserved for

3026
01:43:41,284 --> 01:43:41,950
other presidents for decades?

3027
01:43:41,950 --> 01:43:44,887
Shame on each of you for

3028
01:43:44,887 --> 01:43:47,287
putting your personal politics

3029
01:43:47,623 --> 01:43:51,223
above the people of San Diego

3030
01:43:52,829 --> 01:43:54,829
Evanston.

3031
01:43:58,167 --> 01:43:58,801
>> Good afternoon again.

3032
01:43:58,801 --> 01:43:59,502
Council PRESIDENT Council

3033
01:43:59,502 --> 01:44:00,169
Members Again my name is Evan

3034

of Commerce.

3037

And really just want to start

3038
01:44:04,706 --> 01:44:07,706
by thanking staff for their

a labor of love on this whole

3042
01:44:09,812 --> 01:44:12,181
ldc update and really

appreciate their work in making

3044
01:44:12,914 --> 01:44:13,649
sure that this package which is

3045
01:44:13,649 --> 01:44:16,952
a lot of state law changes that

3046
01:44:16,952 --> 01:44:17,653
we don't necessarily have

3047
01:44:17,653 --> 01:44:18,870
control over still makes sense

3048
01:44:18,870 --> 01:44:18,821
for San Diego.

3049
01:44:18,821 --> 01:44:19,389
So really appreciate their work

the planning Commission,

3052
01:44:23,559 --> 01:44:24,227
the Land Use and Housing

3053
01:44:24,227 --> 01:44:26,128
Committee looking at all of

3054
01:44:26,128 --> 01:44:26,762
these you know, 100 plus items

3055
01:44:26,762 --> 01:44:27,430
and really were especially

3056
01:44:27,430 --> 01:44:30,430
supportive of the items that

3057
01:44:31,200 --> 01:44:31,834
promote housing throughout our

3058
01:44:31,834 --> 01:44:32,434
city that help revitalize

3059
01:44:32,434 --> 01:44:34,834
downtown, that speed up

3060
01:44:35,705 --> 01:44:36,406
processes for things like

3061
01:44:36,406 --> 01:44:37,400
outdoor dining establishments

3062
01:44:37,400 --> 01:44:39,400
and wireless communication

3063
01:44:40,676 --> 01:44:41,377
facilities and really help

3064
01:44:41,377 --> 01:44:42,110
promote small business growth

3065
01:44:42,110 --> 01:44:42,545
and housing opportunities

3066
01:44:42,545 --> 01:44:44,545
throughout our city.

3067
01:44:45,515 --> 01:44:46,149
So we encourage you to support

3068
01:44:46,149 --> 01:44:46,449
the ldc update as proposed

3069
01:44:46,449 --> 01:44:46,882
today.

3070
01:44:46,882 --> 01:44:47,250
>> Thank you.

3071
01:44:47,250 --> 01:44:49,250
Thank you.

3072
01:44:50,119 --> 01:44:50,820
Started the five minute time

3073
01:44:50,820 --> 01:44:51,521
ago one of those participating

3074
01:44:51,521 --> 01:44:52,755
remotely starting with Andrea.

3075
01:44:52,755 --> 01:44:55,755
We currently have 13 people in

3076
01:44:58,328 --> 01:44:59,162
the queue.

3077
01:44:59,162 --> 01:44:59,795
>> I'm Andrea Hatch and we had

3078
01:44:59,795 --> 01:45:00,430
Hayward withhold the hill.

3079
01:45:00,430 --> 01:45:02,331
I submitted a policy paper

3080
01:45:02,331 --> 01:45:03,320
titled Capacity before density

3081
01:45:03,320 --> 01:45:03,666
into the record for this item

3082
01:45:03,666 --> 01:45:06,666
The paper proposes that to

3083
01:45:06,903 --> 01:45:07,604
the extent not prohibited by

3084
01:45:07,604 --> 01:45:08,237
state or federal law the city

3085
01:45:08,237 --> 01:45:08,938
incorporates a sequencing

3086
01:45:08,938 --> 01:45:10,938
framework into implementation

3087
01:45:11,641 --> 01:45:12,308
of all discretionary and

3088
01:45:12,308 --> 01:45:13,900
ministerial housing schemas

3089
01:45:13,900 --> 01:45:15,900
including complete communities

3090
01:45:16,146 --> 01:45:16,846
density bonus programs, transit

3091
01:45:16,846 --> 01:45:17,312
oriented development programs

3092
01:45:17,312 --> 01:45:17,780
and future sb 79

3093
01:45:17,780 --> 01:45:19,780
implementation.

3094
01:45:21,518 --> 01:45:22,218
As I discussed Thursday night

3095
01:45:22,218 --> 01:45:22,919
during the Council hearing on

3096
01:45:22,919 --> 01:45:25,655
that matter, the central issue

3097
01:45:25,655 --> 01:45:26,356
was not whether low resource

3098
01:45:26,356 --> 01:45:26,690
communities should grow, they

3099
01:45:26,690 --> 01:45:27,357
should.

3100
01:45:27,357 --> 01:45:30,357
The issue was whether growth

3101
01:45:30,527 --> 01:45:31,600
occurs alongside sufficient

3102
01:45:31,600 --> 01:45:31,728
amenity investment,

3103
01:45:31,728 --> 01:45:33,728
infrastructure capacity and

3104
01:45:35,565 --> 01:45:36,299
economic diversification to

3105
01:45:36,299 --> 01:45:36,833
avoid intensifying existing low

3106
01:45:36,833 --> 01:45:37,434
resource conditions.

3107
01:45:37,434 --> 01:45:40,434
The state itself has now

3108
01:45:40,937 --> 01:45:41,605
acknowledged to sb 79

3109
01:45:41,605 --> 01:45:42,205
implementation options that

3110
01:45:42,205 --> 01:45:44,205
absorptive capacity and

3111
01:45:46,242 --> 01:45:46,643
sequencing matter in vulnerable

3112
01:45:46,643 --> 01:45:47,760
communities.

3113
01:45:47,760 --> 01:45:47,443
>> Thank you.

3114
01:45:47,443 --> 01:45:47,978
Thank you.

3115
01:45:47,978 --> 01:45:50,378
Next is Becky Rapp.

3116
01:45:53,316 --> 01:45:56,916
If you can please unmute Becky

3117
01:46:00,189 --> 01:46:00,956
Repp Academy for you.

3118
01:46:00,956 --> 01:46:01,324
>> Thank you and good

3119
01:46:01,324 --> 01:46:03,324
afternoon.

3120
01:46:04,661 --> 01:46:05,428
My name is Becky Rapp and I

3121
01:46:05,428 --> 01:46:06,195
just wanted to voice my support

3122
01:46:06,195 --> 01:46:09,195
for item 20 on the land

3123
01:46:10,167 --> 01:46:10,833
development Code update and

3124
01:46:10,833 --> 01:46:13,833
urge the city to strengthen

3125
01:46:14,400 --> 01:46:14,871
this ordinance even further by

3126
01:46:14,871 --> 01:46:17,271
expanding it beyond site

3127
01:46:19,576 --> 01:46:20,276
signage its cannabis on site

3128
01:46:20,276 --> 01:46:23,276
signage to include all offsite

3129
01:46:24,347 --> 01:46:24,747
cannabis marketing and

3130
01:46:24,747 --> 01:46:25,482
advertising.

3131
01:46:25,482 --> 01:46:26,183
If the city has determined that

3132
01:46:26,183 --> 01:46:29,183
the marijuana leaf symbol and

3133
01:46:29,586 --> 01:46:30,253
cannabis imagery are

3134
01:46:30,253 --> 01:46:30,987
inappropriate for storefront

3135
01:46:30,987 --> 01:46:33,987
signage then the same standards

3136
01:46:34,624 --> 01:46:35,325
should apply to billboards,

3137
01:46:35,325 --> 01:46:37,725
banners, event promotions and

3138
01:46:39,280 --> 01:46:39,730
other off site marketing.

3139
01:46:39,730 --> 01:46:40,330
The families and children see

3140
01:46:40,330 --> 01:46:42,730
every day these symbols

3141
01:46:43,800 --> 01:46:44,501
normalize drug use, target

3142
01:46:44,501 --> 01:46:45,135
young people through branding

3143
01:46:45,135 --> 01:46:47,535
and imagery and undermine

3144
01:46:48,671 --> 01:46:49,372
public health messaging about

3145
01:46:49,372 --> 01:46:49,940
the real risks associated with

3146
01:46:49,940 --> 01:46:51,940
high potency marijuana

3147
01:46:53,277 --> 01:46:53,844
including addiction impaired

3148
01:46:53,844 --> 01:46:54,578
driving and psychosis.

3149
01:46:54,578 --> 01:46:57,578
San Diego regulates tobacco and

3150
01:46:58,882 --> 01:46:59,550
alcohol advertising because we

3151
01:46:59,550 --> 01:47:00,183
recognize the influence that

3152
01:47:00,183 --> 01:47:02,583
marketing has on behavior.

3153
01:47:04,540 --> 01:47:04,421
Marijuana should not time

3154
01:47:04,421 --> 01:47:04,888
concluded.

3155
01:47:04,888 --> 01:47:06,888
>> Gary Hewitt.

3156
01:47:07,958 --> 01:47:08,425
If you can please and you.

3157
01:47:08,425 --> 01:47:09,126
Good afternoon.

3158
01:47:09,126 --> 01:47:12,726
My name is Gary Hewitt, chair

3159
01:47:13,163 --> 01:47:13,664
of the Downtown Community

3160
01:47:13,664 --> 01:47:14,397
Planning Council.

3161
01:47:14,397 --> 01:47:18,301
On behalf of the dcp, I want to

3162
01:47:18,301 --> 01:47:19,200
thank council and staff for

3163
01:47:19,200 --> 01:47:19,770
the collaborative process on

3164
01:47:19,770 --> 01:47:22,770
this general plan Update I

3165
01:47:23,600 --> 01:47:23,540
personally want to raise one

3166
01:47:23,540 --> 01:47:24,174
concern critical to

3167
01:47:24,174 --> 01:47:26,574
the downtown plan success.

3168
01:47:27,377 --> 01:47:28,112
This update continues to

3169
01:47:28,112 --> 01:47:28,812
support significant residential

3170
01:47:28,812 --> 01:47:31,212
development in downtown mixed

3171
01:47:31,982 --> 01:47:32,649
use neighborhoods something

3172
01:47:32,649 --> 01:47:33,217
that the downtown community

3173
01:47:33,217 --> 01:47:33,817
continues to support.

3174
01:47:33,817 --> 01:47:36,817
But the goal depends on

3175
01:47:37,253 --> 01:47:37,921
residents being able to

3176
01:47:37,921 --> 01:47:38,622
actually live in those homes

3177
01:47:38,622 --> 01:47:39,323
which requires enforcement of

3178
01:47:39,323 --> 01:47:41,892
the noise standards This plan

3179
01:47:41,892 --> 01:47:42,659
commits to.

3180
01:47:42,659 --> 01:47:43,393
Item 11 would allow staff to

3181
01:47:43,393 --> 01:47:45,393
administratively override state

3182
01:47:47,131 --> 01:47:47,798
and city noise limits for

3183
01:47:47,798 --> 01:47:48,532
special events and projects

3184
01:47:48,532 --> 01:47:50,932
combined with noise enforcement

3185
01:47:51,635 --> 01:47:52,336
already being downgraded to

3186
01:47:52,336 --> 01:47:52,736
alternative compliance due to

3187
01:47:52,736 --> 01:47:53,404
budget cuts.

3188
01:47:53,404 --> 01:47:55,404
This effectively eliminated

3189
01:47:57,841 --> 01:47:58,208
noise protections for downtown

3190
01:47:58,208 --> 01:47:58,842
residents.

3191
01:47:58,842 --> 01:47:59,577
The district pc has a live

3192
01:47:59,577 --> 01:48:01,977
entertainment permit I attended

3193
01:48:01,979 --> 01:48:02,846
this month.

3194
01:48:02,846 --> 01:48:03,547
It was now consider approving

3195
01:48:03,547 --> 01:48:06,547
it knowing that the applicant

3196
01:48:08,385 --> 01:48:08,953
won't be held accountable if

3197
01:48:08,953 --> 01:48:09,320
they violate the noise

3198
01:48:09,320 --> 01:48:09,987
ordinance.

3199
01:48:09,987 --> 01:48:11,655
Am The City council restores

3200
01:48:11,655 --> 01:48:12,323
restore noise enforcement and

3201
01:48:12,323 --> 01:48:12,857
reject the staff discretion

3202
01:48:12,857 --> 01:48:13,224
proposed in item 11.

3203
01:48:13,224 --> 01:48:15,224
Thank you.

3204
01:48:16,793 --> 01:48:17,561
Thank you.

3205
01:48:17,561 --> 01:48:19,961
>> Next is John Stump.

3206
01:48:20,764 --> 01:48:23,330
If you can please unmute.

3207
01:48:23,330 --> 01:48:25,433
>> Thank you very much.

3208
01:48:29,240 --> 01:48:32,544
I'm content to you to protest

3209
01:48:32,544 --> 01:48:35,544
item number 85 on page 16 which

3210
01:48:37,748 --> 01:48:41,348
raises the fees to file an

3211
01:48:42,653 --> 01:48:42,953
appeal to some two thousand

3212
01:48:42,953 --> 01:48:44,953
$480.

3213
01:48:47,291 --> 01:48:47,991
>> This is an amount that.

3214
01:48:47,991 --> 01:48:49,991
Severely discriminate against

3215
01:48:52,296 --> 01:48:53,970
people of median income in

3216
01:48:53,970 --> 01:48:55,933
the city of San Diego people of

3217
01:48:55,933 --> 01:48:56,600
color That fee should only be

3218
01:48:56,600 --> 01:48:59,000
$100 or something like that.

3219
01:49:01,972 --> 01:49:05,572
This is a disgrace And secondly

3220
01:49:06,310 --> 01:49:07,111
the policy should be changed So

3221
01:49:07,111 --> 01:49:07,512
that should a party prevail in

3222
01:49:07,512 --> 01:49:09,512
the appeal.

3223
01:49:11,849 --> 01:49:12,350
The fee will automatically be

3224
01:49:12,350 --> 01:49:14,350
refunded to them.

3225
01:49:16,753 --> 01:49:17,455
Come on you know if staff did

3226
01:49:17,455 --> 01:49:21,550
good work we wouldn't have to

3227
01:49:22,590 --> 01:49:22,827
have these fees.

3228
01:49:22,827 --> 01:49:23,227
>> Thank you very much.

3229
01:49:23,227 --> 01:49:24,161
Thank you.

3230

the 2026 Land Development Code

3239
01:49:46,170 --> 01:49:46,716
update I'd like to thank

3240

01:49:48,286 --> 01:49:50,286
addition.

3244
01:49:50,788 --> 01:49:51,322
>> Staff spent countless

3245
01:49:51,322 --> 01:49:51,922
countless hours with

3246
01:49:51,922 --> 01:49:52,523
stakeholders throughout

3247
01:49:52,523 --> 01:49:55,492
the city to help develop

3248
01:49:55,492 --> 01:49:55,960
the list and refine

3249
01:49:55,960 --> 01:49:56,593
the provisions.

3250
01:49:56,593 --> 01:49:57,328
In some cases items were

3251
01:49:57,328 --> 01:49:57,962
removed and others changes were

3252
01:49:57,962 --> 01:50:00,362
made that will ultimately

3253
01:50:01,566 --> 01:50:02,233
improve our city's code for

3254
01:50:02,233 --> 01:50:02,867
the betterment of our city.

3255
01:50:02,867 --> 01:50:05,267
In closing, we appreciate

3256
01:50:06,371 --> 01:50:06,938
staff's consideration of our

3257
01:50:06,938 --> 01:50:07,605
members perspective in

3258
01:50:07,605 --> 01:50:08,272
developing these updates and

3259
01:50:08,272 --> 01:50:10,272
respectfully request council

3260
01:50:10,608 --> 01:50:11,750
approval of the staff

3261
01:50:11,750 --> 01:50:11,642
recommendation.

3262
01:50:11,642 --> 01:50:12,900
>> Thank you.

3263
01:50:12,900 --> 01:50:12,343
Thank you.

3264
01:50:12,343 --> 01:50:14,343
During.

3265
01:50:14,946 --> 01:50:18,546
If you can please unmute during

3266
01:50:20,151 --> 01:50:20,618
this.

3267
01:50:20,618 --> 01:50:21,552
Oh thank you.

3268
01:50:21,552 --> 01:50:25,152
I, I really hope that this

3269
01:50:25,423 --> 01:50:28,423
council would pull item 41 and

3270
01:50:31,950 --> 01:50:31,829
figure out a way that you will

3271
01:50:31,829 --> 01:50:34,829
enforce the non removal because

3272
01:50:36,501 --> 01:50:38,901
your dsd department as

3273
01:50:41,305 --> 01:50:41,973
evidenced by Project 1128933.

3274
01:50:41,973 --> 01:50:44,373
Where developers falsely lie

3275
01:50:46,344 --> 01:50:47,440
that the lot is empty So I'd

3276
01:50:47,440 --> 01:50:47,779
like to know how you actually

3277
01:50:47,779 --> 01:50:50,779
enforce non removal of these

3278
01:50:51,849 --> 01:50:52,617
rentals.

3279
01:50:52,617 --> 01:50:55,617
Second thing is item 97 should

3280
01:50:56,855 --> 01:50:57,121
be this they have not contacted

3281
01:50:57,121 --> 01:50:59,121
any.

3282
01:51:02,600 --> 01:51:02,794
88 groups relocating assessable

3283
01:51:02,794 --> 01:51:05,794
parking is unacceptable and all

3284
01:51:07,665 --> 01:51:08,332
it's going to do is redo

3285
01:51:08,332 --> 01:51:10,732
another lawsuit hopefully a

3286
01:51:14,572 --> 01:51:15,273
very late in 80 and you guys

3287
01:51:15,273 --> 01:51:18,273
still haven't even read reads

3288
01:51:18,810 --> 01:51:19,477
all some ada issues that are in

3289
01:51:19,477 --> 01:51:19,911
existence for 88 parking on

3290
01:51:19,911 --> 01:51:21,911
Market Street.

3291
01:51:25,283 --> 01:51:26,351
Thank you next is Catherine

3292
01:51:26,351 --> 01:51:28,153
Rose if I have my time I also

3293
01:51:28,153 --> 01:51:28,853
concluded there were nine

3294
01:51:28,853 --> 01:51:29,588
speakers in the queue and that

3295
01:51:29,588 --> 01:51:30,210
included no additional speakers

3296
01:51:30,210 --> 01:51:32,210
will be taken.

3297
01:51:33,325 --> 01:51:33,792
Catherine please proceed.

3298
01:51:33,792 --> 01:51:34,920
>> Hi.

3299
01:51:34,920 --> 01:51:36,920
Hi.

3300
01:51:38,797 --> 01:51:39,664
This is Catherine Roach and i

3301
01:51:39,664 --> 01:51:43,864
want to talk about the fees for

3302
01:51:43,902 --> 01:51:44,970
appeals.

3303
01:51:44,970 --> 01:51:45,604
You know I did an p bill for

3304
01:51:45,604 --> 01:51:46,304
the Navy Broadway complex

3305
01:51:46,304 --> 01:51:48,840
because I thought there was an

3306
01:51:48,840 --> 01:51:49,541
active fault on it and even

3307
01:51:49,541 --> 01:51:49,908
with the appeals nothing ever

3308
01:51:49,908 --> 01:51:50,642
happened.

3309
01:51:50,642 --> 01:51:53,642
Nobody ever confirmed or denied

3310
01:51:54,179 --> 01:51:54,879
the act defaulting.

3311
01:51:54,879 --> 01:51:55,614
And so just to increase

3312
01:51:55,614 --> 01:51:56,140
the appeal so that people can't

3313
01:51:56,140 --> 01:51:58,140
afford them.

3314
01:51:58,917 --> 01:51:59,684
That's not cute.

3315
01:51:59,684 --> 01:52:00,418
You should you should want as

3316
01:52:00,418 --> 01:52:04,180
many appeals as possible so you

3317
01:52:04,923 --> 01:52:05,223
could know what the dangers are

3318
01:52:05,223 --> 01:52:06,910
.

3319
01:52:06,910 --> 01:52:10,262
So I don't like that One thing

3320
01:52:10,262 --> 01:52:11,280
that I was very concerned about

3321
01:52:11,280 --> 01:52:11,696
is you're talking about how you

3322
01:52:11,696 --> 01:52:12,396
could increase the height in

3323
01:52:12,396 --> 01:52:15,333
mobility zone one and then you

3324
01:52:15,333 --> 01:52:15,934
have to go to another thing to

3325
01:52:15,934 --> 01:52:16,301
say mobility zone one is

3326
01:52:16,301 --> 01:52:16,968
downtown.

3327
01:52:16,968 --> 01:52:20,568
I would like if you actually

3328
01:52:20,905 --> 01:52:21,673
put the word downtown in there.

3329
01:52:21,673 --> 01:52:22,540
When you talk about mobility

3330
01:52:22,540 --> 01:52:26,140
zone one so people don't get

3331
01:52:26,877 --> 01:52:30,849
confused like I did and then it

3332
01:52:30,849 --> 01:52:31,350
started in on page eight 142 of

3333
01:52:31,350 --> 01:52:33,350
211 You talk about

3334
01:52:36,521 --> 01:52:37,222
the exchanges for affordable

3335
01:52:37,222 --> 01:52:37,989
housing dwelling units and in

3336
01:52:37,989 --> 01:52:40,191
some Gary time has concluded

3337
01:52:40,191 --> 01:52:43,791
the original if you can please

3338
01:52:45,564 --> 01:52:46,431
unmute.

3339
01:52:46,431 --> 01:52:47,990
>> You think these changes are

3340
01:52:47,990 --> 01:52:47,432
going to be your key to

3341
01:52:47,432 --> 01:52:49,432
success?

3342
01:52:50,802 --> 01:52:51,370
I highly doubt it because it

3343
01:52:51,370 --> 01:52:52,103
seems like you're more

3344
01:52:52,103 --> 01:52:52,804
concerned about following state

3345
01:52:52,804 --> 01:52:56,404
law when you're a charter city

3346
01:52:56,942 --> 01:52:57,643
and you But I mean obviously

3347
01:52:57,643 --> 01:52:58,343
you do things because you want

3348
01:52:58,343 --> 01:52:59,760
to bite the hand that they do

3349
01:52:59,760 --> 01:53:01,446
in your concern that you're not

3350
01:53:01,446 --> 01:53:02,470
going to be getting your money

3351
01:53:02,470 --> 01:53:02,382
coming in from different

3352
01:53:02,382 --> 01:53:03,810
things.

3353
01:53:03,810 --> 01:53:06,681
But if you really cared about

3354
01:53:06,885 --> 01:53:07,553
putting into people's

3355
01:53:07,553 --> 01:53:08,153
communities what the people

3356
01:53:08,153 --> 01:53:08,887
wanted, you wouldn't be

3357
01:53:08,887 --> 01:53:09,153
concerned about following state

3358
01:53:09,153 --> 01:53:09,754
law.

3359
01:53:09,754 --> 01:53:12,154
You'd be concerned about

3360
01:53:13,157 --> 01:53:13,826
following what the people in

3361
01:53:13,826 --> 01:53:14,526
our communities are desiring

3362
01:53:14,526 --> 01:53:17,696
And it seems like you guys are

3363
01:53:17,696 --> 01:53:18,530
constantly getting in your own

3364
01:53:18,530 --> 01:53:19,197
way to providing the things

3365
01:53:19,197 --> 01:53:22,797
that need to be provided but

3366
01:53:23,802 --> 01:53:24,536
also your implement you know

3367
01:53:24,536 --> 01:53:25,270
changes that are going to force

3368
01:53:25,270 --> 01:53:28,870
others to do the work in

3369
01:53:29,541 --> 01:53:30,342
the communities that you can't

3370
01:53:30,342 --> 01:53:34,542
do yourself by way of making it

3371
01:53:34,580 --> 01:53:35,280
a requirement Bill And it's

3372
01:53:35,280 --> 01:53:35,947
interesting that you guys have

3373
01:53:35,947 --> 01:53:36,447
density bonuses but you also

3374
01:53:36,447 --> 01:53:37,820
have density fees.

3375
01:53:37,820 --> 01:53:40,820
The fact that you're using

3376
01:53:40,686 --> 01:53:41,420
vehicle miles traveled when

3377
01:53:41,420 --> 01:53:42,154
that is a fraudulent data point

3378
01:53:42,154 --> 01:53:45,154
and that shouldn't even be

3379
01:53:45,758 --> 01:53:46,425
something that's included And

3380
01:53:46,425 --> 01:53:47,125
you guys just really need to

3381
01:53:47,125 --> 01:53:50,125
think about what the community

3382
01:53:50,829 --> 01:53:51,297
wants over what the state is

3383
01:53:51,297 --> 01:53:51,964
requiring.

3384
01:53:51,964 --> 01:53:52,865
>> Your time is concluded.

3385
01:53:52,865 --> 01:53:56,465
Tell me if you can please

3386
01:53:57,503 --> 01:54:00,503
unmute Tony Academy for you.

3387
01:54:01,807 --> 01:54:02,508
>> I will need to move on to

3388
01:54:02,508 --> 01:54:06,108
the next speaker If you can't

3389
01:54:07,880 --> 01:54:08,781
unmute for yourself going on to

3390
01:54:08,781 --> 01:54:12,381
Peggy Walker if you can please

3391
01:54:12,818 --> 01:54:13,285
unmute.

3392
01:54:13,285 --> 01:54:14,190
Thank you.

3393
01:54:14,190 --> 01:54:16,419
I endorse strict strengthening

3394
01:54:18,524 --> 01:54:19,258
of language regarding onsite

3395
01:54:19,258 --> 01:54:21,658
advertising and I'm prohibiting

3396
01:54:24,290 --> 01:54:24,763
the marijuana live or colored

3397
01:54:24,763 --> 01:54:25,430
images on buildings That's good

3398
01:54:25,430 --> 01:54:27,830
policy and suggest extending

3399
01:54:30,340 --> 01:54:30,635
those to uptake marketing

3400
01:54:30,635 --> 01:54:31,236
including prohibition of

3401
01:54:31,236 --> 01:54:34,236
billboards as we do with

3402
01:54:36,208 --> 01:54:36,875
tobacco when recent federal

3403
01:54:36,875 --> 01:54:37,543
rescheduling of marijuana is

3404
01:54:37,543 --> 01:54:39,943
creating confusion and this

3405
01:54:41,113 --> 01:54:41,747
will help reduce misconceptions

3406
01:54:41,747 --> 01:54:44,147
about marijuana safety and

3407
01:54:46,986 --> 01:54:47,687
medical utility, medical

3408
01:54:47,687 --> 01:54:50,687
societies still do not endorse

3409
01:54:53,240 --> 01:54:53,626
dispensary pot for medical or

3410
01:54:53,626 --> 01:54:54,260
mental health treatment.

3411
01:54:54,260 --> 01:54:54,759
Nevertheless, advertising

3412
01:54:54,759 --> 01:54:56,759
regulations enable

3413
01:54:59,165 --> 01:54:59,865
manufacturers to exaggerate

3414
01:54:59,865 --> 01:55:02,265
therapeutic uses and downplay

3415
01:55:04,203 --> 01:55:04,904
harms especially to vulnerable

3416
01:55:04,904 --> 01:55:05,637
populations including youths.

3417
01:55:05,637 --> 01:55:09,837
We can choose how we allow weak

3418
01:55:10,760 --> 01:55:10,710
to be marketed in our

3419
01:55:10,710 --> 01:55:11,310
communities prohibition of

3420
01:55:11,310 --> 01:55:11,844
marijuana billboards and

3421
01:55:11,844 --> 01:55:13,844
stronger advertising

3422
01:55:16,749 --> 01:55:18,651
restrictions will help us.

3423
01:55:18,651 --> 01:55:21,510
Conclusion Thank you 8700 If

3424
01:55:25,825 --> 01:55:26,292
you can please unmute.

3425
01:55:26,292 --> 01:55:28,292
Thank you Joy.

It's your turn 53 Heidi I

3427
01:55:35,368 --> 01:55:36,340
support updates to the appeal

3428
01:55:36,340 --> 01:55:38,434
fees for project and

environmental appeals

3430
01:55:41,240 --> 01:55:43,240
especially environmental

3431
01:55:46,846 --> 01:55:47,447
appeals in regards to

3432
01:55:47,447 --> 01:55:48,470
the downtown plan Yes to

3433
01:55:48,470 --> 01:55:50,470
transit oriented items.

3434
01:55:52,919 --> 01:55:53,652
Yes to tree canopy.

3435
01:55:53,652 --> 01:55:57,252
And then my last statement is

3436
01:55:58,491 --> 01:55:59,625
again to you Heidi, please.

3437
01:55:59,625 --> 01:56:04,425
We do we need to update any new

3438
01:56:04,731 --> 01:56:05,498
codes land development codes in

3439
01:56:05,498 --> 01:56:09,980
the future to bring all in

3440
01:56:10,670 --> 01:56:11,371
alignment with sb seven nine,

3441
01:56:11,371 --> 01:56:13,771
the transit oriented housing

3442
01:56:16,475 --> 01:56:20,750
project item I.E. Include fees

3443
01:56:22,150 --> 01:56:22,481
and there's lots of other stuff

3444
01:56:22,481 --> 01:56:24,481
presently cover.

3445
01:56:27,620 --> 01:56:28,288
You didn't say it the way I did

3446
01:56:28,288 --> 01:56:28,954
but you did bring up

3447
01:56:28,954 --> 01:56:29,489
the question last week Your

3448
01:56:29,489 --> 01:56:31,489
time has concluded.

3449
01:56:34,961 --> 01:56:35,628
Sorry Hector if you can please

3450
01:56:35,628 --> 01:56:36,329
unmute Hector you're pretty

3451
01:56:36,329 --> 01:56:39,329
complicated on all these codes

3452
01:56:41,600 --> 01:56:42,201
but the city should implement a

3453
01:56:42,201 --> 01:56:42,902
land development code or

3454
01:56:42,902 --> 01:56:46,502
municipal code or if you rent

3455
01:56:46,573 --> 01:56:47,239
out to illegal aliens you can

3456
01:56:47,239 --> 01:56:48,108
get a fine like a $10,000

3457
01:56:48,108 --> 01:56:51,708
because we're going to have a

3458
01:56:52,780 --> 01:56:52,645
mass rapid deportation program

3459
01:56:52,645 --> 01:56:53,346
coming up with Trump.

3460
01:56:53,346 --> 01:56:56,946
It's going to hit the county

3461
01:56:58,351 --> 01:56:58,917
and city pretty hard And we've

3462
01:56:58,917 --> 01:56:59,819
got to do our part.

3463
01:56:59,819 --> 01:57:04,190
And just if you rent out to

3464
01:57:04,190 --> 01:57:04,791
illegal aliens or you're

3465
01:57:04,791 --> 01:57:07,791
involved in that like a

3466
01:57:08,528 --> 01:57:09,129
landlord, we can find a ten

3467
01:57:09,129 --> 01:57:09,862
grand or maybe take your

3468
01:57:09,862 --> 01:57:12,862
property or something like that

3469
01:57:13,900 --> 01:57:14,534
because we got to even even

3470
01:57:14,534 --> 01:57:15,135
the governor said now that

3471
01:57:15,135 --> 01:57:17,535
the Medi-Cal program is

3472
01:57:20,440 --> 01:57:21,141
bankrupt with all these medical

3473
01:57:21,141 --> 01:57:24,141
patients taking over the state

3474
01:57:25,678 --> 01:57:26,450
and Governor knew something was

3475
01:57:26,450 --> 01:57:26,713
behind it.

3476
01:57:26,713 --> 01:57:29,713
So eventually we're going to

3477
01:57:31,840 --> 01:57:31,818
have to come up with the Mass

3478
01:57:31,818 --> 01:57:32,518
Rapid Deportation Committee and

3479
01:57:32,518 --> 01:57:36,118
move forward and get San Diego

3480
01:57:38,580 --> 01:57:38,425
back to be in Great again.

3481
01:57:38,425 --> 01:57:38,792
Thank you.

3482
01:57:38,792 --> 01:57:39,759
Thank you.

3483
01:57:39,759 --> 01:57:43,359
Blair begin if you can please

3484
01:57:47,367 --> 01:57:48,235
unmute where we can.

3485
01:57:48,235 --> 01:57:51,835
>> I often feel like an illegal

3486
01:57:52,772 --> 01:57:53,639
alien in the public process to

3487
01:57:53,639 --> 01:57:57,839
try to offer my $0.02 Here I am

3488
01:57:58,770 --> 01:57:58,411
when I can with downtown

3489
01:57:58,411 --> 01:57:59,120
issues.

3490
01:57:59,120 --> 01:57:59,346
I really like the public

3491
01:57:59,346 --> 01:57:59,712
comment.

3492
01:57:59,712 --> 01:58:01,712
Thank you.

3493
01:58:05,218 --> 01:58:05,952
I'm concerned on ideas.

3494
01:58:05,952 --> 01:58:08,952
Council PRESIDENT Carver made a

3495
01:58:10,423 --> 01:58:10,991
very nice comment on

3496
01:58:10,991 --> 01:58:11,658
the previous item how

3497
01:58:11,658 --> 01:58:14,580
the appropriation boards can

3498
01:58:16,630 --> 01:58:16,763
work if applicable.

3499
01:58:16,763 --> 01:58:17,431
I'm hoping it's possible that

3500
01:58:17,431 --> 01:58:19,431
economic development persons

3501
01:58:21,468 --> 01:58:22,135
can possibly be attending

3502
01:58:22,135 --> 01:58:22,769
the meetings more if that's

3503
01:58:22,769 --> 01:58:23,136
applicable Appropriations

3504
01:58:23,136 --> 01:58:23,804
meetings.

3505
01:58:23,804 --> 01:58:27,404
Good luck with that and good

3506
01:58:28,208 --> 01:58:28,942
luck with a public process to

3507
01:58:28,942 --> 01:58:29,309
define our future of these sort

3508
01:58:29,309 --> 01:58:31,309
of issues.

3509
01:58:34,181 --> 01:58:34,815
You know I'm really hurt that

3510
01:58:34,815 --> 01:58:35,482
the parking ban it really

3511
01:58:35,482 --> 01:58:36,183
excludes the public process

3512
01:58:36,183 --> 01:58:40,200
like what we can be doing with

3513
01:58:40,200 --> 01:58:40,720
that and with downtown I hope

3514
01:58:40,720 --> 01:58:43,720
we can keep our buildings

3515
01:58:47,294 --> 01:58:47,694
parking accessibility is being

3516
01:58:47,694 --> 01:58:48,562
taken away.

3517
01:58:48,562 --> 01:58:48,995
I feel that could be a part of

3518
01:58:48,995 --> 01:58:49,363
the solution.

3519
01:58:49,363 --> 01:58:49,730
Thank you.

3520
01:58:49,730 --> 01:58:51,730
Thank you.

3521
01:58:52,699 --> 01:58:53,166
Medicine if you can please On

3522
01:58:53,166 --> 01:58:54,101
you I thank you.

3523
01:58:54,101 --> 01:58:58,301
I wanted to say that I support

3524
01:58:58,539 --> 01:58:59,206
the proposed update to prohibit

3525
01:58:59,206 --> 01:58:59,806
the cannabis leaf symbol on

3526
01:58:59,806 --> 01:59:01,806
cannabis outlet signage.

3527
01:59:04,244 --> 01:59:04,845
As a mom of three and someone

3528
01:59:04,845 --> 01:59:05,478
who works in youth drug

3529
01:59:05,478 --> 01:59:06,146
prevention, I've seen how

3530
01:59:06,146 --> 01:59:08,546
recognizable that symbol has

3531
01:59:10,500 --> 01:59:10,750
become to kids and teens

3532
01:59:10,750 --> 01:59:11,451
displaying a prominently near

3533
01:59:11,451 --> 01:59:13,851
restaurants, schools, parks or

3534
01:59:16,560 --> 01:59:16,690
along our streets normalizes

3535
01:59:16,690 --> 01:59:17,291
cannabis use and increases

3536
01:59:17,291 --> 01:59:17,824
youth exposure to a mind

3537
01:59:17,824 --> 01:59:19,824
altering substance.

3538
01:59:21,995 --> 01:59:22,595
I also believe that marijuana

3539
01:59:22,595 --> 01:59:23,263
billboards should not be

3540
01:59:23,263 --> 01:59:23,998
allowed for the same reason

3541
01:59:23,998 --> 01:59:26,398
Large scale advertising further

3542
01:59:28,668 --> 01:59:29,302
promotes and normalizes

3543
01:59:29,302 --> 01:59:29,903
cannabis use in ways that

3544
01:59:29,903 --> 01:59:30,571
impact young people and

3545
01:59:30,571 --> 01:59:33,571
the overall character of our

3546
01:59:33,941 --> 01:59:34,708
community.

3547
01:59:34,708 --> 01:59:35,342
The current regulations already

3548
01:59:35,342 --> 01:59:36,100
limit signages to business

3549
01:59:36,100 --> 01:59:38,100
names, alphabetic characters

3550
01:59:40,614 --> 01:59:41,314
and simple colors Prohibiting

3551
01:59:41,314 --> 01:59:42,150
the cannabis leaf symbol is a

3552
01:59:42,150 --> 01:59:42,416
reasonable extension of those

3553
01:59:42,416 --> 01:59:44,416
protections.

3554
01:59:46,587 --> 01:59:47,221
It simply creates sensible

3555
01:59:47,221 --> 01:59:47,955
guardrails to reduce youth

3556
01:59:47,955 --> 01:59:50,355
exposure and community impacts.

3557
01:59:52,526 --> 01:59:53,270
Please support this amendment.

3558
01:59:53,270 --> 01:59:55,270
>> Thank you.

3559
01:59:58,980 --> 01:59:58,632
And our final speaker Kathleen

3560
01:59:58,632 --> 02:00:00,632
Catherine.

3561
02:00:04,705 --> 02:00:05,372
Thank you.

3562
02:00:05,372 --> 02:00:07,772
>> I'd like to address

3563
02:00:09,443 --> 02:00:10,144
the municipal code updates 8594

3564
02:00:10,144 --> 02:00:10,845
and 107 regarding the appeals

3565
02:00:10,845 --> 02:00:13,245
fees project and environmental

3566
02:00:15,850 --> 02:00:16,416
appeals that would increase

3567
02:00:16,416 --> 02:00:17,510
fees for projects and

3568
02:00:17,510 --> 02:00:19,510
environmental appeals that

3569
02:00:21,188 --> 02:00:21,689
would align with fees charged

3570
02:00:21,689 --> 02:00:22,456
by other cities.

3571
02:00:22,456 --> 02:00:22,990
I don't think that has anything

3572
02:00:22,990 --> 02:00:25,990
to do with our city.

3573
02:00:26,861 --> 02:00:27,561
Your city fee should be

3574
02:00:27,561 --> 02:00:27,995
tailored to the city, not to

3575
02:00:27,995 --> 02:00:28,695
other cities.

3576
02:00:28,695 --> 02:00:32,295
And as John Staff pointed out,

3577
02:00:33,901 --> 02:00:34,535
that exorbitant fees or

3578
02:00:34,535 --> 02:00:35,236
discriminate discriminate

3579
02:00:35,236 --> 02:00:37,636
against low income communities

3580
02:00:39,540 --> 02:00:40,241
and all they do is serve as a

3581
02:00:40,241 --> 02:00:40,608
deterrent never to appeal such

3582
02:00:40,608 --> 02:00:42,608
projects.

3583
02:00:44,912 --> 02:00:45,312
94 The wireless communication

3584
02:00:45,312 --> 02:00:47,312
facilities.

3585
02:00:49,717 --> 02:00:50,351
And it says that they will

3586
02:00:50,351 --> 02:00:51,510
streamline the process by

3587
02:00:51,510 --> 02:00:51,619
reducing the approval process

3588
02:00:51,619 --> 02:00:53,619
for specific wireless

3589
02:00:55,956 --> 02:00:56,824
communications.

3590
02:00:56,824 --> 02:00:57,491
What that means is it's just a

3591
02:00:57,491 --> 02:01:00,491
euphemism for we're going to

3592
02:01:02,395 --> 02:01:03,970
eliminate the public voice in

3593
02:01:03,970 --> 02:01:03,764
opposition and we're going to

3594
02:01:03,764 --> 02:01:04,498
streamline it to make it an

3595
02:01:04,498 --> 02:01:06,898
administrative process And that

3596
02:01:08,569 --> 02:01:09,203
is not that is not that does

3597
02:01:09,203 --> 02:01:12,203
not serve the public need.

3598
02:01:14,775 --> 02:01:15,476
And one of the seven replacing

3599
02:01:15,476 --> 02:01:16,110
parking fees for street trees

3600
02:01:16,110 --> 02:01:18,510
act on sidewalks, outdoor

3601
02:01:20,515 --> 02:01:21,249
dining, the outdoor dining and

3602
02:01:21,249 --> 02:01:24,249
those street areas have already

3603
02:01:27,540 --> 02:01:27,455
removed nearly all of

3604
02:01:27,455 --> 02:01:28,155
the public.

3605
02:01:28,155 --> 02:01:28,890
>> Your time has concluded and

3606
02:01:28,890 --> 02:01:29,257
that goes as well to comment on

3607
02:01:29,257 --> 02:01:29,624
this item.

3608
02:01:29,624 --> 02:01:31,624
All right.

3609
02:01:31,826 --> 02:01:32,660
Thank you city Clerk for that.

3610
02:01:32,660 --> 02:01:33,261
So with that we'll turn it over

3611
02:01:33,261 --> 02:01:35,661
to council for comments,

3612
02:01:37,965 --> 02:01:38,699
questions and entertain a

3613
02:01:38,699 --> 02:01:39,333
motion and we'll start out with

3614
02:01:39,333 --> 02:01:39,967
the chair of Land Use and

3615
02:01:39,967 --> 02:01:41,967
Housing Council PRESIDENT

3616
02:01:43,270 --> 02:01:44,370
Pro-Tem we thank yous PRESIDENT

3617
02:01:44,370 --> 02:01:44,638
And thank you to the City

3618
02:01:44,638 --> 02:01:45,339
Planning Department for

3619
02:01:45,339 --> 02:01:45,940
the tremendous amount of time

3620
02:01:45,940 --> 02:01:46,574
that's been dedicated to

3621
02:01:46,574 --> 02:01:49,100
delivering this land of on

3622
02:01:49,100 --> 02:01:49,710
the code update working with

3623
02:01:49,710 --> 02:01:51,710
various stakeholders, working

3624
02:01:53,581 --> 02:01:54,281
with our offices as well And I

3625
02:01:54,281 --> 02:01:55,160
will for one recollect that I

3626
02:01:55,160 --> 02:01:58,385
believe we all thought this was

3627
02:01:58,385 --> 02:01:58,987
first going to come forward

3628
02:01:58,987 --> 02:01:59,720
back in late 2024.

3629
02:01:59,720 --> 02:02:00,621
So that's just to say that

3630
02:02:00,621 --> 02:02:04,221
there's been a huge amount of

3631
02:02:04,958 --> 02:02:05,559
time that's been dedicated to

3632
02:02:05,559 --> 02:02:06,270
trying to get this to

3633
02:02:06,270 --> 02:02:06,728
the finish line.

3634
02:02:06,728 --> 02:02:09,728
There have been many thorough

3635
02:02:10,365 --> 02:02:10,998
discussions regarding numerous

3636
02:02:10,998 --> 02:02:11,733
components in this update

3637
02:02:11,733 --> 02:02:12,400
including since it went through

3638
02:02:12,400 --> 02:02:14,800
Planning Commission and then

3639
02:02:16,737 --> 02:02:17,405
most recently through our Land

3640
02:02:17,405 --> 02:02:17,972
Use and Housing Committee

3641
02:02:17,972 --> 02:02:18,639
meeting back in MARCH.

3642
02:02:18,639 --> 02:02:22,239
We made a few amendments at

3643
02:02:22,277 --> 02:02:23,110
that time and so I'm glad to

3644
02:02:23,110 --> 02:02:23,611
see some of our recommendations

3645
02:02:23,611 --> 02:02:26,110
were included in today's

3646
02:02:26,714 --> 02:02:27,415
version particularly for item

3647
02:02:27,415 --> 02:02:30,415
seven relating to micro unit

3648
02:02:31,850 --> 02:02:31,786
waivers For those who might

3649
02:02:31,786 --> 02:02:32,487
recollect a little over two

3650
02:02:32,487 --> 02:02:33,121
years ago the council chose to

3651
02:02:33,121 --> 02:02:35,521
maintain waivers for micro

3652
02:02:37,191 --> 02:02:37,859
units and while I was glad to

3653
02:02:37,859 --> 02:02:38,560
support that I was also

3654
02:02:38,560 --> 02:02:39,193
understanding the need that we

3655
02:02:39,193 --> 02:02:41,593
have to collect abatement

3656
02:02:42,530 --> 02:02:43,231
impact fees and assure that

3657
02:02:43,231 --> 02:02:43,931
the city is actually providing

3658
02:02:43,931 --> 02:02:44,632
incentives that match up with

3659
02:02:44,632 --> 02:02:48,232
the areas that we believe are

3660
02:02:50,538 --> 02:02:50,939
in short welcome to housing

3661
02:02:50,939 --> 02:02:51,606
production.

3662
02:02:51,606 --> 02:02:52,140
So I want to thank the City

3663
02:02:52,140 --> 02:02:52,874
Plan department for

3664
02:02:52,874 --> 02:02:55,274
incorporating our amendment for

3665
02:02:55,944 --> 02:02:56,645
making the waivers so that they

3666
02:02:56,645 --> 02:02:57,579
continue to be offered but it

3667
02:02:57,579 --> 02:03:00,782
be done so as an incentive tied

3668
02:03:00,782 --> 02:03:01,316
to the ever elusive larger

3669
02:03:01,316 --> 02:03:02,500
three bedroom units.

3670
02:03:02,500 --> 02:03:06,250
And I think this is one of

3671
02:03:06,655 --> 02:03:07,388
the ways in which a community

3672
02:03:07,388 --> 02:03:08,560
complete communities remains an

3673
02:03:08,560 --> 02:03:08,789
important program that helps

3674
02:03:08,789 --> 02:03:12,389
our city encourage all types of

3675
02:03:12,961 --> 02:03:13,795
housing including micro units.

3676
02:03:13,795 --> 02:03:14,428
On item 87 I want to specially

3677
02:03:14,428 --> 02:03:17,428
thank you Heidi, for your

3678
02:03:19,000 --> 02:03:19,668
leadership in trying to work on

3679
02:03:19,668 --> 02:03:20,201
a sensible solution with our

3680
02:03:20,201 --> 02:03:20,902
offices and various

3681
02:03:20,902 --> 02:03:23,302
stakeholders especially as we

3682
02:03:25,407 --> 02:03:26,107
all seek to see the committee

3683
02:03:26,107 --> 02:03:26,708
plan updates that we've worked

3684
02:03:26,708 --> 02:03:27,750
to past actually come to

3685
02:03:27,750 --> 02:03:27,709
fruition.

3686
02:03:27,709 --> 02:03:31,309
We talk often about how we

3687
02:03:31,646 --> 02:03:32,247
create capacity but whether

3688
02:03:32,247 --> 02:03:32,948
that actually results in

3689
02:03:32,948 --> 02:03:35,948
the production that we intend

3690
02:03:37,385 --> 02:03:38,530
and in all of that also taking

3691
02:03:38,530 --> 02:03:38,687
the opportunity acknowledge

3692
02:03:38,687 --> 02:03:39,354
that there are some severe

3693
02:03:39,354 --> 02:03:39,754
economic realities that are

3694
02:03:39,754 --> 02:03:41,754
being faced.

3695
02:03:43,224 --> 02:03:43,892
So I just want to take this

3696
02:03:43,892 --> 02:03:44,526
moment to thank you and your

3697
02:03:44,526 --> 02:03:45,260
staff for spending so much

3698
02:03:45,260 --> 02:03:48,860
energy perhaps more than it was

3699
02:03:49,965 --> 02:03:50,832
ever worth on that effort.

3700
02:03:50,832 --> 02:03:51,432
Next I want to thank staff for

3701
02:03:51,432 --> 02:03:52,670
the efforts made towards

3702
02:03:52,670 --> 02:03:54,670
streamlining the wireless

3703
02:03:56,710 --> 02:03:56,705
communication facility

3704
02:03:56,705 --> 02:03:57,406
regulations and then also

3705
02:03:57,406 --> 02:03:57,839
allowing child care centers in

3706
02:03:57,839 --> 02:03:58,506
the next year.

3707
02:03:58,506 --> 02:04:02,106
My area in my district along

3708
02:04:02,110 --> 02:04:02,811
with other items to help make

3709
02:04:02,811 --> 02:04:03,478
clarifications and corrections

3710
02:04:03,478 --> 02:04:05,878
for the community's Housing

3711
02:04:07,782 --> 02:04:08,450
solutions program and lastly I

3712
02:04:08,450 --> 02:04:09,151
appreciate staff in bringing

3713
02:04:09,151 --> 02:04:12,751
forward and one of three which

3714
02:04:13,521 --> 02:04:14,256
expands where medical offices

3715
02:04:14,256 --> 02:04:14,990
are allowed Medical clinics can

3716
02:04:14,990 --> 02:04:15,724
be a good fit for many business

3717
02:04:15,724 --> 02:04:19,324
parks and I think about how

3718
02:04:19,594 --> 02:04:20,295
other areas of the city can

3719
02:04:20,295 --> 02:04:20,996
also have the potential to see

3720
02:04:20,996 --> 02:04:23,996
expanded access to health care

3721
02:04:25,700 --> 02:04:26,401
including in my district and

3722
02:04:26,401 --> 02:04:27,680
with that mine only just going

3723
02:04:27,680 --> 02:04:27,736
to ask that you consider in

3724
02:04:27,736 --> 02:04:30,736
the next ltc update perhaps

3725
02:04:31,139 --> 02:04:31,840
reviewing what we categorized

3726
02:04:31,840 --> 02:04:32,507
as medical offices to ensure

3727
02:04:32,507 --> 02:04:33,141
that we're not overly overly

3728
02:04:33,141 --> 02:04:36,141
limiting where they can be

3729
02:04:37,813 --> 02:04:38,513
placed as well as ensuring that

3730
02:04:38,513 --> 02:04:39,180
we match up with the types of

3731
02:04:39,180 --> 02:04:39,914
facilities that we're seeing

3732
02:04:39,914 --> 02:04:44,114
Given health care as we know it

3733
02:04:44,353 --> 02:04:45,220
continues to evolve.

3734
02:04:45,220 --> 02:04:45,921
So with that I'm going to go

3735
02:04:45,921 --> 02:04:46,621
ahead and move the approval of

3736
02:04:46,621 --> 02:04:49,621
the 2026 city wide ltc package

3737
02:04:51,493 --> 02:04:52,940
and downtown obviously package

3738
02:04:52,940 --> 02:04:52,560
I think it gets better.

3739
02:04:52,560 --> 02:04:52,928
>> All right.

3740
02:04:52,928 --> 02:04:53,629
Thank you.

3741
02:04:53,629 --> 02:04:56,965
So we have a motion by

3742
02:04:56,965 --> 02:04:57,666
the council PRESIDENT Pro

3743
02:04:57,666 --> 02:04:58,133
complete to move the staff

3744
02:04:58,133 --> 02:04:58,867
recommendation.

3745
02:04:58,867 --> 02:04:59,200
We'll go next to council member

3746
02:04:59,200 --> 02:05:01,200
Watford.

3747
02:05:02,437 --> 02:05:03,205
Thank you Council PRESIDENT

3748
02:05:03,205 --> 02:05:03,672
Thank you to Chair Lee for

3749
02:05:03,672 --> 02:05:04,406
those comments.

3750
02:05:04,406 --> 02:05:08,600
I also I think the Planning

3751
02:05:09,110 --> 02:05:09,745
Department dsd and outside

3752
02:05:09,745 --> 02:05:10,345
urban division for all the work

3753
02:05:10,345 --> 02:05:11,790
committed to this update

3754
02:05:11,790 --> 02:05:13,479
the community members, business

3755
02:05:15,451 --> 02:05:16,117
groups for all the review and

3756
02:05:16,117 --> 02:05:16,819
feedback I made most of my

3757
02:05:16,819 --> 02:05:20,419
comments at the lady said How

3758
02:05:20,589 --> 02:05:20,889
was the committee meeting in

3759
02:05:20,889 --> 02:05:21,656
APRIL?

3760
02:05:21,656 --> 02:05:22,391
So I'll just touch on a few

3761
02:05:22,391 --> 02:05:24,791
citywide abatements here before

3762
02:05:26,962 --> 02:05:27,596
turning my attention to the top

3763
02:05:27,596 --> 02:05:28,297
Item six expands complete

3764
02:05:28,297 --> 02:05:31,297
communities for for sale homes

3765
02:05:32,000 --> 02:05:32,701
That's a meaningful shift told

3766
02:05:32,701 --> 02:05:33,401
how that program will be

3767
02:05:33,401 --> 02:05:34,690
applied to rentals open it up

3768
02:05:34,690 --> 02:05:36,469
to home ownership including

3769
02:05:39,441 --> 02:05:40,142
affordable for sale homes be

3770
02:05:40,142 --> 02:05:40,843
it's more say the agents will

3771
02:05:40,843 --> 02:05:41,577
have a real path to hope your

3772
02:05:41,577 --> 02:05:44,577
transit your schools and your

3773
02:05:44,914 --> 02:05:45,447
the amenities that make our

3774
02:05:45,447 --> 02:05:46,115
neighborhoods work.

3775
02:05:46,115 --> 02:05:48,515
Another item they're really

3776
02:05:48,650 --> 02:05:49,385
looking forward to implementing

3777
02:05:49,385 --> 02:05:50,520
citywide is item 50 the shared

3778
02:05:50,520 --> 02:05:50,719
housing density bonus which

3779
02:05:50,719 --> 02:05:54,319
will make it easier to build

3780
02:05:55,224 --> 02:05:56,910
share housing citywide that

3781
02:05:56,910 --> 02:05:56,792
plan is a great place to start

3782
02:05:56,792 --> 02:05:57,526
with that particularly related

3783
02:05:57,526 --> 02:05:59,926
office buildings Shared housing

3784
02:06:01,630 --> 02:06:01,697
improves affordability by

3785
02:06:01,697 --> 02:06:02,364
splitting rent and utility

3786
02:06:02,364 --> 02:06:02,965
costs and it fosters social

3787
02:06:02,965 --> 02:06:04,965
connection and security

3788
02:06:07,570 --> 02:06:08,437
especially for seniors.

3789
02:06:08,437 --> 02:06:09,138
Many of the changes in front of

3790
02:06:09,138 --> 02:06:09,705
us today seem small but could

3791
02:06:09,705 --> 02:06:10,306
actually make a really

3792
02:06:10,306 --> 02:06:12,306
significant difference.

3793
02:06:13,542 --> 02:06:14,210
What are those instances as

3794
02:06:14,210 --> 02:06:14,576
item 90 regarding emergency

3795
02:06:14,576 --> 02:06:16,576
shelters?

3796
02:06:19,810 --> 02:06:19,782
It streamlines the permitting

3797
02:06:19,782 --> 02:06:20,516
process for emergency shelters

3798
02:06:20,516 --> 02:06:21,217
making it easier to get them up

3799
02:06:21,217 --> 02:06:21,550
and running without regulatory

3800
02:06:21,550 --> 02:06:23,550
burdens.

3801
02:06:26,550 --> 02:06:26,789
So that we could more

3802
02:06:26,789 --> 02:06:27,456
efficiently help people who are

3803
02:06:27,456 --> 02:06:30,456
homeless get off the streets

3804
02:06:32,161 --> 02:06:32,861
and into shelter if it was most

3805
02:06:32,861 --> 02:06:33,528
of my time though our downtown

3806
02:06:33,528 --> 02:06:33,896
every great city has a great

3807
02:06:33,896 --> 02:06:34,530
downtown.

3808
02:06:34,530 --> 02:06:37,733
We have seen more and more

3809
02:06:37,733 --> 02:06:38,367
people able to get without

3810
02:06:38,367 --> 02:06:39,101
Outside Diego we've added

3811
02:06:39,101 --> 02:06:42,101
parks, we've added trees, we've

3812
02:06:42,204 --> 02:06:42,538
expanded our cultural resources

3813
02:06:42,538 --> 02:06:43,272
.

3814
02:06:43,272 --> 02:06:44,600
There is a renewed commitment

3815
02:06:44,600 --> 02:06:44,540
to downtown San Diego to making

3816
02:06:44,540 --> 02:06:46,540
our streets vibrant.

3817
02:06:48,110 --> 02:06:48,480
It's safe and welcoming for

3818
02:06:48,480 --> 02:06:49,211
everybody.

3819
02:06:49,211 --> 02:06:49,878
This didn't happen by accident.

3820
02:06:49,878 --> 02:06:52,278
Thoughtful planning by Dgd's

3821
02:06:54,160 --> 02:06:54,683
Urban Division played an

3822
02:06:54,683 --> 02:06:55,318
important role in that This

3823
02:06:55,318 --> 02:06:58,318
code update doled out that

3824
02:07:00,556 --> 02:07:01,157
little bit of an idea but opens

3825
02:07:01,157 --> 02:07:01,858
the door to more rooftop

3826
02:07:01,858 --> 02:07:02,492
gardens of downtown have died

3827
02:07:02,492 --> 02:07:04,492
encourages preservation of

3828
02:07:06,662 --> 02:07:07,330
the mature trees that give our

3829
02:07:07,330 --> 02:07:07,730
neighborhood shade character

3830
02:07:07,730 --> 02:07:08,464
and comfort.

3831
02:07:08,464 --> 02:07:12,640
Together they will help to cool

3832
02:07:12,668 --> 02:07:13,369
our streets, improve air

3833
02:07:13,369 --> 02:07:13,970
quality and bring nature into

3834
02:07:13,970 --> 02:07:14,504
the heart of our city, I

3835
02:07:14,504 --> 02:07:15,238
replied creates new

3836
02:07:15,238 --> 02:07:17,238
homeownership opportunities for

3837
02:07:18,741 --> 02:07:19,108
people who want to live

3838
02:07:19,108 --> 02:07:19,776
downtown.

3839
02:07:19,776 --> 02:07:20,476
Additional opportunities for

3840
02:07:20,476 --> 02:07:21,420
people to make downtown their

3841
02:07:21,420 --> 02:07:23,420
homes strengthens our

3842
02:07:24,547 --> 02:07:25,281
neighborhoods, supports local

3843
02:07:25,281 --> 02:07:25,948
businesses and build a sense of

3844
02:07:25,948 --> 02:07:28,948
stability and pride in very

3845
02:07:31,754 --> 02:07:32,355
small parcels in the urban core

3846
02:07:32,355 --> 02:07:33,560
have said underdeveloped

3847
02:07:33,560 --> 02:07:33,756
tourist parking lots for years

3848
02:07:33,756 --> 02:07:37,193
because the rules have made it

3849
02:07:37,193 --> 02:07:37,894
very difficult to build them.

3850
02:07:37,894 --> 02:07:38,528
Item six is incentives for

3851
02:07:38,528 --> 02:07:41,528
small lots and item eight

3852
02:07:43,666 --> 02:07:44,467
revitalization But as a legacy

3853
02:07:44,467 --> 02:07:45,134
street I would like those sites

3854
02:07:45,134 --> 02:07:45,801
for new housing due activity

3855
02:07:45,801 --> 02:07:46,502
You do like the blocks that

3856
02:07:46,502 --> 02:07:49,205
I've been waiting for The next

3857
02:07:49,205 --> 02:07:49,905
chapter and clearer rules for

3858
02:07:49,905 --> 02:07:50,607
programing provides a simpler

3859
02:07:50,607 --> 02:07:53,700
pathways for outdoor community

3860
02:07:55,378 --> 02:07:56,790
uses Those make it easier to

3861
02:07:56,790 --> 02:07:56,679
bring people together whether

3862
02:07:56,679 --> 02:07:57,347
it's a fitness class, a

3863
02:07:57,347 --> 02:07:59,747
farmer's market, a cultural

3864
02:08:01,651 --> 02:08:02,351
event or a pop up activation

3865
02:08:02,351 --> 02:08:02,986
Together these updates move us

3866
02:08:02,986 --> 02:08:03,686
toward a downtown that is

3867
02:08:03,686 --> 02:08:06,860
greener, more attainable, more

3868
02:08:07,890 --> 02:08:08,558
dynamic, a more complete.

3869
02:08:08,558 --> 02:08:09,125
And what that utters our

3870
02:08:09,125 --> 02:08:09,492
character supports our

3871
02:08:09,492 --> 02:08:10,226
residents.

3872
02:08:10,226 --> 02:08:13,620
It strengthens the economic and

3873
02:08:13,620 --> 02:08:13,830
cultural heart of this city.

3874
02:08:13,830 --> 02:08:14,530
Really glad to see this code

3875
02:08:14,530 --> 02:08:17,530
update coming forward and I'll

3876
02:08:19,802 --> 02:08:20,470
be happy to Second

3877
02:08:20,470 --> 02:08:20,903
Councilmember Lee's motion.

3878
02:08:20,903 --> 02:08:21,371
>> All right.

3879
02:08:21,371 --> 02:08:23,371
Thank you, sir.

3880
02:08:24,607 --> 02:08:25,375
So we have a motion by Council

3881
02:08:25,375 --> 02:08:25,975
PRESIDENT Pro Tem Lee and a

3882
02:08:25,975 --> 02:08:26,609
second by Councilmember

3883
02:08:26,609 --> 02:08:27,760
Whitburn to move the staff

3884
02:08:27,760 --> 02:08:27,777
recommendation.

3885
02:08:27,777 --> 02:08:29,846
We'll go next to Councilmember

3886
02:08:29,846 --> 02:08:30,547
Hilo Rivera All right.

3887
02:08:30,547 --> 02:08:31,247
Thank you, council PRESIDENT.

3888
02:08:31,247 --> 02:08:34,847
Thank you, Heidi and team for

3889
02:08:35,885 --> 02:08:36,619
all of your work on this.

3890
02:08:36,619 --> 02:08:37,320
I was just thinking about as

3891
02:08:37,320 --> 02:08:40,320
you were running through each

3892
02:08:41,157 --> 02:08:41,958
item how much work there must

3893
02:08:41,958 --> 02:08:42,726
be behind each of those items

3894
02:08:42,726 --> 02:08:46,926
So it shows up as you know,

3895
02:08:47,630 --> 02:08:48,310
very, very comprehensive list

3896
02:08:48,310 --> 02:08:48,798
of updates.

3897
02:08:48,798 --> 02:08:49,466
I know it takes hours and hours

3898
02:08:49,466 --> 02:08:53,660
and hours of work each and

3899
02:08:53,737 --> 02:08:54,437
every item So thank you for

3900
02:08:54,437 --> 02:08:55,205
that effort And I know there's

3901
02:08:55,205 --> 02:08:59,405
a lot of thought that goes in

3902
02:08:59,542 --> 02:09:00,243
each of those I think both my

3903
02:09:00,243 --> 02:09:03,843
comments at the council but I

3904
02:09:05,414 --> 02:09:06,182
will say thank you again for

3905
02:09:06,182 --> 02:09:08,582
including prohibition on moving

3906
02:09:11,755 --> 02:09:12,455
and storage facilities in

3907
02:09:12,455 --> 02:09:12,756
the zones that we've laid out

3908
02:09:12,756 --> 02:09:13,722
here.

3909
02:09:13,722 --> 02:09:17,922
As I said before, I'll say it

3910
02:09:18,160 --> 02:09:18,862
again we need homes and small

3911
02:09:18,862 --> 02:09:19,329
businesses in my district, in

3912
02:09:19,329 --> 02:09:21,329
our communities.

3913
02:09:23,500 --> 02:09:24,200
We don't need more spaces for

3914
02:09:24,200 --> 02:09:26,600
folks from other neighborhoods

3915
02:09:28,905 --> 02:09:29,606
to store their stuff And each

3916
02:09:29,606 --> 02:09:30,340
of those facilities deprives

3917
02:09:30,340 --> 02:09:33,340
the community of an opportunity

3918
02:09:35,211 --> 02:09:35,812
to build housing So I'm glad

3919
02:09:35,812 --> 02:09:36,513
we're making that move.

3920
02:09:36,513 --> 02:09:39,513
District nine City Heights and

3921
02:09:41,840 --> 02:09:41,685
other parts of the city are not

3922
02:09:41,685 --> 02:09:42,352
the storage centers for

3923
02:09:42,352 --> 02:09:42,986
wealthier parts of the city.

3924
02:09:42,986 --> 02:09:44,986
They're neighborhoods that

3925
02:09:47,424 --> 02:09:48,124
deserve respect and along those

3926
02:09:48,124 --> 02:09:51,124
lines increasing the fines for

3927
02:09:53,930 --> 02:09:54,631
abandoned properties I think is

3928
02:09:54,631 --> 02:09:54,931
a very important thing for us

3929
02:09:54,931 --> 02:09:55,799
to do.

3930
02:09:55,799 --> 02:09:59,399
It's been far too easy for

3931
02:10:00,360 --> 02:10:00,737
disrespectful property owners

3932
02:10:00,737 --> 02:10:04,337
to hoard property, leave it in

3933
02:10:05,642 --> 02:10:06,310
an abandoned state which has

3934
02:10:06,310 --> 02:10:08,710
negative impacts on property

3935
02:10:11,247 --> 02:10:11,949
values, safety and just general

3936
02:10:11,949 --> 02:10:12,649
quality of life in my district

3937
02:10:12,649 --> 02:10:16,849
in other parts of the city as

3938
02:10:16,954 --> 02:10:17,621
well and ensuring that

3939
02:10:17,621 --> 02:10:18,355
the penalties for those bad

3940
02:10:18,355 --> 02:10:21,355
actors are sufficient enough to

3941
02:10:23,894 --> 02:10:24,494
actually discourage that

3942
02:10:24,494 --> 02:10:25,128
behavior in a city where

3943
02:10:25,128 --> 02:10:28,128
holding on to property can

3944
02:10:29,332 --> 02:10:30,100
produce so much profit over

3945
02:10:30,100 --> 02:10:30,800
the course of time I think is

3946
02:10:30,800 --> 02:10:31,501
an important step to make sure

3947
02:10:31,501 --> 02:10:32,135
that all our neighborhoods get

3948
02:10:32,135 --> 02:10:34,535
the respect they deserve.

3949
02:10:37,730 --> 02:10:37,574
So thank you again for all

3950
02:10:37,574 --> 02:10:38,275
the work on this.

3951
02:10:38,275 --> 02:10:38,909
i very much appreciate it and

3952
02:10:38,909 --> 02:10:39,276
I'm support of the motion.

3953
02:10:39,276 --> 02:10:39,943
Thank you.

3954
02:10:39,943 --> 02:10:40,310
Council PRESIDENT All right.

3955
02:10:40,310 --> 02:10:42,310
Thank you.

3956
02:10:42,312 --> 02:10:42,980
Council member Laura We'll go

3957
02:10:42,980 --> 02:10:43,546
next to Council member Campi

3958
02:10:43,546 --> 02:10:44,181
Okay Thank you Council

3959
02:10:44,181 --> 02:10:44,781
PRESIDENT Thank you to our

3960
02:10:44,781 --> 02:10:45,182
staff from our planning

3961
02:10:45,182 --> 02:10:47,182
department.

3962
02:10:47,284 --> 02:10:47,917
I'll check with my colleagues

3963
02:10:47,917 --> 02:10:48,552
appreciation for staff and

3964
02:10:48,552 --> 02:10:49,219
stakeholders and community

3965
02:10:49,219 --> 02:10:49,820
members who've been involved

3966
02:10:49,820 --> 02:10:51,820
throughout the process.

3967
02:10:53,490 --> 02:10:54,191
Obviously we have a lot of

3968
02:10:54,191 --> 02:10:54,825
technical amendments before us

3969
02:10:54,825 --> 02:10:55,459
but want to make space for

3970
02:10:55,459 --> 02:10:56,590
the community and industry

3971
02:10:56,590 --> 02:10:58,590
feedback Throughout that

3972
02:10:58,896 --> 02:10:59,562
process we get a very good

3973
02:10:59,562 --> 02:11:00,630
result and that's a workable

3974
02:11:00,630 --> 02:11:00,730
result outside of

3975
02:11:00,730 --> 02:11:02,730
the development streamlining

3976
02:11:04,768 --> 02:11:05,268
provisions which I'm always

3977
02:11:05,268 --> 02:11:05,969
encouraged to see.

3978
02:11:05,969 --> 02:11:06,603
I appreciate the inclusion of

3979
02:11:06,603 --> 02:11:08,603
8812 from Assembly member

3980
02:11:10,607 --> 02:11:11,341
Werner Putting aside some of

3981
02:11:11,341 --> 02:11:12,410
that meaningful opportunity for

3982
02:11:12,410 --> 02:11:15,641
artist housing in San Diego is

3983
02:11:17,800 --> 02:11:17,781
a good path forward and I

3984
02:11:17,781 --> 02:11:18,515
appreciate the spaces for our

3985
02:11:18,515 --> 02:11:19,216
team at the spaces for our team

3986
02:11:19,216 --> 02:11:21,616
to advocating and championing

3987
02:11:22,453 --> 02:11:23,120
that.

3988
02:11:23,120 --> 02:11:23,754
I'm also glad to see

3989
02:11:23,754 --> 02:11:24,388
the incentives for family

3990
02:11:24,388 --> 02:11:25,121
housing and homeownership

3991
02:11:25,121 --> 02:11:27,121
opportunities and opportunities

3992
02:11:29,260 --> 02:11:29,726
for child care in our military

3993
02:11:29,726 --> 02:11:32,126
communities around them since

3994
02:11:32,629 --> 02:11:33,363
Miramar And I do have one quick

3995
02:11:33,363 --> 02:11:33,997
question from something someone

3996
02:11:33,997 --> 02:11:36,997
said on the public comment

3997
02:11:37,501 --> 02:11:38,268
about a fee going up to 2400.

3998
02:11:38,268 --> 02:11:38,636
Can you elaborate on what that

3999
02:11:38,636 --> 02:11:40,636
might be?

4000
02:11:43,674 --> 02:11:44,341
Is that an appeal fee?

4001
02:11:44,341 --> 02:11:46,741
Yeah, I believe that

4002
02:11:49,914 --> 02:11:50,514
the reference was to the appeal

4003
02:11:50,514 --> 02:11:51,181
fees of lots of planning

4004
02:11:51,181 --> 02:11:53,581
commission and city council.

4005
02:11:54,180 --> 02:11:54,718
The fees are proposed to

4006
02:11:54,718 --> 02:11:57,118
increase from 1000 to 1140 for

4007
02:11:59,390 --> 02:12:00,570
appeals to planning commission

4008
02:12:00,570 --> 02:12:00,723
and the appeals from City

4009
02:12:00,723 --> 02:12:03,723
council are currently set at

4010
02:12:04,361 --> 02:12:04,895
1000 and they're proposed to

4011
02:12:04,895 --> 02:12:06,895
increase to $2,380.

4012
02:12:10,668 --> 02:12:11,368
This is due to the need to

4013
02:12:11,368 --> 02:12:12,690
provide for full cost recovery

4014
02:12:12,690 --> 02:12:13,304
for the staff time it takes to

4015
02:12:13,304 --> 02:12:16,304
process the items City Council

4016
02:12:21,679 --> 02:12:22,379
understood.

4017
02:12:22,379 --> 02:12:24,548
So essentially $1,000 more is

4018
02:12:24,548 --> 02:12:25,182
what it takes to get to

4019
02:12:25,182 --> 02:12:25,883
Costco's 1% cost recovery.

4020
02:12:25,883 --> 02:12:29,387
>> Is it partial And the new

4021
02:12:29,387 --> 02:12:29,754
fees would be at a 100% cost

4022
02:12:29,754 --> 02:12:30,421
recovery.

4023
02:12:30,421 --> 02:12:30,955
>> They currently are not at

4024
02:12:30,955 --> 02:12:31,255
100% cost recovery.

4025
02:12:31,255 --> 02:12:33,255
I see.

4026
02:12:35,760 --> 02:12:36,427
Okay I do agree with what

4027
02:12:36,427 --> 02:12:37,280
the caller pointed out that

4028
02:12:37,280 --> 02:12:40,280
there are there are some

4029
02:12:41,765 --> 02:12:42,466
planning groups and individuals

4030
02:12:42,466 --> 02:12:43,134
who sometimes struggle to get

4031
02:12:43,134 --> 02:12:43,700
that money together when an

4032
02:12:43,700 --> 02:12:45,700
appeal is successful.

4033
02:12:46,700 --> 02:12:49,670
This appeal for refund in order

4034
02:12:52,900 --> 02:12:54,900
is it not?

4035
02:12:58,582 --> 02:12:58,983
>> It is not okay.

4036
02:12:58,983 --> 02:12:59,817
Understood.

4037
02:12:59,817 --> 02:13:04,170
Well I just would like to know

4038
02:13:04,421 --> 02:13:05,323
that I think that maybe it

4039
02:13:05,323 --> 02:13:06,560
should be if you appeal and you

4040
02:13:06,560 --> 02:13:06,357
win and maybe you should get it

4041
02:13:06,357 --> 02:13:06,991
back.

4042
02:13:06,991 --> 02:13:07,458
But I understand it's not

4043
02:13:07,458 --> 02:13:09,458
before us today.

4044
02:13:10,928 --> 02:13:11,596
Last thing I had heard from

4045
02:13:11,596 --> 02:13:14,596
members in the department in

4046
02:13:15,800 --> 02:13:16,501
the industry that a couple

4047
02:13:16,501 --> 02:13:17,201
months ago there was an issue

4048
02:13:17,201 --> 02:13:17,902
around a couple of definitions

4049
02:13:17,902 --> 02:13:21,502
that seem to be not completely

4050
02:13:22,306 --> 02:13:22,973
clear about the size of

4051
02:13:22,973 --> 02:13:23,274
the hedge trees things like

4052
02:13:23,274 --> 02:13:23,941
this.

4053
02:13:23,941 --> 02:13:26,341
Have those definitions been

4054
02:13:28,212 --> 02:13:28,880
worked on, cleared up?

4055
02:13:28,880 --> 02:13:29,580
I believe they there was

4056
02:13:29,580 --> 02:13:31,980
comment at planning Commission

4057
02:13:38,690 --> 02:13:39,390
about this sort of thing And so

4058
02:13:39,390 --> 02:13:40,580
the 2026 Land Development Code

4059
02:13:40,580 --> 02:13:40,658
update included an item that

4060
02:13:40,658 --> 02:13:43,580
was intended to clarify

4061
02:13:44,629 --> 02:13:45,330
the landscaping requirements or

4062
02:13:45,330 --> 02:13:46,640
to state that the preservation

4063
02:13:46,640 --> 02:13:50,264
of trees and shrubs was part of

4064
02:13:50,568 --> 02:13:51,302
the intent of the regulations

4065
02:13:51,302 --> 02:13:51,970
as there are regulations that

4066
02:13:51,970 --> 02:13:52,570
apply to their preservation.

4067
02:13:52,570 --> 02:13:54,570
The Planning Commission

4068
02:13:56,707 --> 02:13:57,508
requested that that intent

4069
02:13:57,508 --> 02:13:58,176
language be removed and it was

4070
02:13:58,176 --> 02:13:58,543
removed prior to committee.

4071
02:13:58,543 --> 02:13:58,910
Very good.

4072
02:13:58,910 --> 02:13:59,277
All right.

4073
02:13:59,277 --> 02:14:01,277
Thank you.

4074
02:14:03,214 --> 02:14:03,914
I'd heard about that a few

4075
02:14:03,914 --> 02:14:04,616
different times out in public

4076
02:14:04,616 --> 02:14:04,983
so I appreciate you doing that

4077
02:14:04,983 --> 02:14:06,983
with that.

4078
02:14:09,487 --> 02:14:10,421
Thank you for the detailed work

4079
02:14:10,421 --> 02:14:11,122
And I know you do this once a

4080
02:14:11,122 --> 02:14:11,722
year and it's extraordinary My

4081
02:14:11,722 --> 02:14:12,900
work I'll be in support.

4082
02:14:12,900 --> 02:14:14,900
Thank you.

4083
02:14:15,827 --> 02:14:16,528
All right.

4084
02:14:16,528 --> 02:14:17,261
Thank you, Councilmember Camp.

4085
02:14:17,261 --> 02:14:18,620
Not anybody else on the lights.

4086
02:14:18,620 --> 02:14:21,662
I'll jump in with a few

4087
02:14:21,833 --> 02:14:22,200
comments As I said at the onset

4088
02:14:22,200 --> 02:14:22,900
thank you.

4089
02:14:22,900 --> 02:14:26,500
City planning for all the work

4090
02:14:26,704 --> 02:14:27,406
that it took to a multi-year

4091
02:14:27,406 --> 02:14:28,720
project to bring this forward

4092
02:14:28,720 --> 02:14:31,672
and the outreach you did and

4093
02:14:34,946 --> 02:14:35,647
packaging this up for CPCs and

4094
02:14:35,647 --> 02:14:36,347
planning commissions, land use

4095
02:14:36,347 --> 02:14:38,747
and housing and extraordinary

4096
02:14:39,184 --> 02:14:39,918
work to really get feedback

4097
02:14:39,918 --> 02:14:43,518
from the public and fine tuning

4098
02:14:44,756 --> 02:14:45,490
and tweaking that It really

4099
02:14:45,490 --> 02:14:46,191
shows evidence of that based on

4100
02:14:46,191 --> 02:14:49,791
the comments that we heard we

4101
02:14:51,161 --> 02:14:51,663
heard today from the public.

4102
02:14:51,663 --> 02:14:52,397
I also appreciate

4103
02:14:52,397 --> 02:14:52,763
the collaboration that seems so

4104
02:14:52,763 --> 02:14:54,763
long ago.

4105
02:14:56,868 --> 02:14:57,535
On to La Hoya amendments, one

4106
02:14:57,535 --> 02:14:58,236
of which came directly from

4107
02:14:58,236 --> 02:14:58,970
the community that I supported

4108
02:14:58,970 --> 02:15:02,570
and one that which was adjusted

4109
02:15:02,741 --> 02:15:03,475
based on the community feedback

4110
02:15:03,475 --> 02:15:04,442
We thank you for that On items

4111
02:15:04,442 --> 02:15:07,442
81 through 83 I'm glad to see

4112
02:15:09,581 --> 02:15:10,248
the adjustments to

4113
02:15:10,248 --> 02:15:10,982
the administrative penalties

4114
02:15:10,982 --> 02:15:11,550
that our Blue team could assess

4115
02:15:11,550 --> 02:15:13,550
particularly given our

4116
02:15:15,453 --> 02:15:15,820
conversation in and b or b r c

4117
02:15:15,820 --> 02:15:16,521
last week.

4118
02:15:16,521 --> 02:15:17,222
It is necessary to give that

4119
02:15:17,222 --> 02:15:20,222
team the flexibility to assess

4120
02:15:21,920 --> 02:15:21,725
penalties at a level that

4121
02:15:21,725 --> 02:15:22,427
better reflects costs and

4122
02:15:22,427 --> 02:15:22,727
incentivizes compliance as was

4123
02:15:22,727 --> 02:15:24,727
said.

4124
02:15:26,465 --> 02:15:27,198
Bless you Whoever that was.

4125
02:15:27,198 --> 02:15:27,933
A question about item 17 this

4126
02:15:27,933 --> 02:15:30,333
question about defensible space

4127
02:15:32,904 --> 02:15:33,604
buffer which we're getting from

4128
02:15:33,604 --> 02:15:36,604
the state does our regulations

4129
02:15:38,610 --> 02:15:39,311
still kind of grandfather

4130
02:15:39,311 --> 02:15:40,440
everybody else but they still

4131
02:15:40,440 --> 02:15:44,149
have to deal with the state for

4132
02:15:44,149 --> 02:15:44,816
existing homes and properties?

4133
02:15:44,816 --> 02:15:45,450
I think you're referencing

4134
02:15:45,450 --> 02:15:47,850
maybe two different items.

4135
02:15:49,988 --> 02:15:50,855
Okay.

4136
02:15:50,855 --> 02:15:54,455
Maybe one of them is just

4137
02:15:56,161 --> 02:15:56,928
clarification that step backs

4138
02:15:56,928 --> 02:15:57,596
MAY be more than what

4139
02:15:57,596 --> 02:15:58,230
the setback is if it doesn't

4140
02:15:58,230 --> 02:16:00,630
meet the defensible space

4141
02:16:02,701 --> 02:16:03,434
requirement for new buildings.

4142
02:16:03,434 --> 02:16:07,340
And then there's a sort of

4143
02:16:08,607 --> 02:16:09,308
totally separate issue which is

4144
02:16:09,308 --> 02:16:10,800
related to existing homeowners

4145
02:16:10,800 --> 02:16:10,676
and how to comply with the new

4146
02:16:10,676 --> 02:16:13,760
regulations related to them

4147
02:16:15,948 --> 02:16:16,648
Throw Those are not before

4148
02:16:16,648 --> 02:16:19,484
the council today but happy to

4149
02:16:19,484 --> 02:16:20,219
follow up with the on zero is

4150
02:16:20,219 --> 02:16:20,752
compliance step for existing is

4151
02:16:20,752 --> 02:16:22,752
2029 okay so there's

4152
02:16:25,290 --> 02:16:25,957
communication coming for fire

4153
02:16:25,957 --> 02:16:26,425
rescue department educating

4154
02:16:26,425 --> 02:16:26,859
homeowners now.

4155
02:16:26,859 --> 02:16:27,225
Oh fantastic.

4156
02:16:27,225 --> 02:16:27,793
Thank you.

4157
02:16:27,793 --> 02:16:30,193
So something was just

4158
02:16:31,530 --> 02:16:32,264
clarifying that possibly Okay

4159
02:16:32,264 --> 02:16:32,931
So on item 94, the wireless

4160
02:16:32,931 --> 02:16:34,931
communication facility, you

4161
02:16:37,102 --> 02:16:37,502
know we've had some policy

4162
02:16:37,502 --> 02:16:38,170
differences.

4163
02:16:38,170 --> 02:16:38,904
I've expressed feedback that

4164
02:16:38,904 --> 02:16:41,904
I've heard from my constituents

4165
02:16:42,941 --> 02:16:43,609
but I appreciate

4166
02:16:43,609 --> 02:16:44,309
the conversation about that

4167
02:16:44,309 --> 02:16:46,709
although optimally those were

4168
02:16:48,947 --> 02:16:49,548
not brought forward to

4169
02:16:49,548 --> 02:16:50,215
the concern that I think

4170
02:16:50,215 --> 02:16:50,949
somebody from the public was

4171
02:16:50,949 --> 02:16:53,949
calling in the proposed process

4172
02:16:55,654 --> 02:16:56,188
level changes within 100ft

4173
02:16:56,188 --> 02:16:56,822
maintain the notice

4174
02:16:56,822 --> 02:16:57,489
requirements and a public

4175
02:16:57,489 --> 02:16:59,889
hearing where the committee

4176
02:17:00,926 --> 02:17:01,627
members MAY express concerns

4177
02:17:01,627 --> 02:17:02,294
that they MAY have on projects

4178
02:17:02,294 --> 02:17:05,294
of this nature that correct

4179
02:17:06,732 --> 02:17:07,990
that we enter Understand that

4180
02:17:07,990 --> 02:17:07,633
correctly?

4181
02:17:07,633 --> 02:17:09,633
Yes, that's correct.

4182
02:17:11,937 --> 02:17:12,571
The wireless facilities would

4183
02:17:12,571 --> 02:17:13,204
still go through a

4184
02:17:13,204 --> 02:17:13,772
discretionary process that

4185
02:17:13,772 --> 02:17:14,473
would be appealable to

4186
02:17:14,473 --> 02:17:16,873
the Planning Commission rather

4187
02:17:18,343 --> 02:17:18,944
than required to go to

4188
02:17:18,944 --> 02:17:19,243
the Planning Commission.

4189
02:17:19,243 --> 02:17:19,945
Okay.

4190
02:17:19,945 --> 02:17:20,612
I was just trying to save all

4191
02:17:20,612 --> 02:17:23,120
those wireless companies in

4192
02:17:24,383 --> 02:17:24,883
trouble of introducing things,

4193
02:17:24,883 --> 02:17:25,584
getting beat up by

4194
02:17:25,584 --> 02:17:26,285
the community and then walking

4195
02:17:26,285 --> 02:17:26,652
away and wasting all that time

4196
02:17:26,652 --> 02:17:28,652
and money.

4197
02:17:30,956 --> 02:17:31,490
But maybe we'll we'll come back

4198
02:17:31,490 --> 02:17:32,224
to that another day.

4199
02:17:32,224 --> 02:17:32,924
So again, thank you for all

4200
02:17:32,924 --> 02:17:36,295
the work and I certainly will

4201
02:17:36,295 --> 02:17:37,161

4202
02:17:37,161 --> 02:17:37,762
No one else So we have a motion

4203
02:17:37,762 --> 02:17:40,162
for PRESIDENT Sorry to

4204
02:17:42,968 --> 02:17:43,636
interrupt you.

4205
02:17:43,636 --> 02:17:44,303
Can I just make one

4206
02:17:44,303 --> 02:17:45,400
clarification or response to

4207
02:17:45,400 --> 02:17:47,400
Councilmember Campos question

4208
02:17:48,340 --> 02:17:49,800
about the apologies I did want

4209
02:17:49,800 --> 02:17:49,708
to note that the appeal fee

4210
02:17:49,708 --> 02:17:52,108
resolution provides for a 50%

4211
02:17:54,245 --> 02:17:54,980
reduction in the appeal fees if

4212
02:17:54,980 --> 02:17:55,481
the project is located within a

4213
02:17:55,481 --> 02:17:55,981
low resource area.

4214
02:17:55,981 --> 02:17:56,481
That's very good.

4215
02:17:56,481 --> 02:17:58,481

appeal but with that we have a

4221
02:18:11,730 --> 02:18:12,331

02:20:25,632 --> 02:20:28,632
Its components water supply and

4311
02:20:29,602 --> 02:20:30,236
demand projections on

4312
02:20:30,236 --> 02:20:30,737
the city's water shortage

02:20:30,737 --> 02:20:31,404
Contingency Plan.

4314
02:20:31,404 --> 02:20:33,804
Urban water management plans

4315
02:20:36,760 --> 02:20:36,809
are high level plans that

4316
02:20:36,809 --> 02:20:37,443
predict future water supply and

4317
02:20:37,443 --> 02:20:40,443
demand over a 25 year time

4318
02:20:41,815 --> 02:20:42,482

every five years.

4325
02:20:48,721 --> 02:20:49,456
Urban water management plans

4326
02:20:49,456 --> 02:20:51,856
are also foundational documents

4327
02:20:53,460 --> 02:20:54,127
for subsequent water supply

4328
02:20:54,127 --> 02:20:54,860
assessments and water supply

4329
02:20:54,860 --> 02:20:55,561
verifications performed by Puti

4330
02:20:55,561 --> 02:20:58,561
to assess the availability of

4331
02:20:59,699 --> 02:21:00,266
water for development in

4332
02:21:00,266 --> 02:21:00,966
the city of San Diego.

4333
02:21:00,966 --> 02:21:04,566
The plan must include a water

4334
02:21:04,938 --> 02:21:05,605
shortage contingency plan which

4335
02:21:05,605 --> 02:21:06,272
defines the actions the city

4336
02:21:06,272 --> 02:21:06,939
will take in the event of a

4337
02:21:06,939 --> 02:21:09,339
declared water emergency or

4338
02:21:11,430 --> 02:21:11,678
enactment of more stringent

4339
02:21:11,678 --> 02:21:12,412
restrictions on water use

4340
02:21:12,412 --> 02:21:13,112
allowing the city to respond in

4341
02:21:13,112 --> 02:21:16,112
an efficient and timely manner

4342
02:21:16,716 --> 02:21:17,350

by the Department of Water

4347
02:21:24,224 --> 02:21:24,924
Resources, the city must have a

4348
02:21:24,924 --> 02:21:27,324
current urban water management

4349
02:21:28,761 --> 02:21:29,429
plan on file that has been

4350
02:21:29,429 --> 02:21:30,130
determined by bwr to address

4351
02:21:30,130 --> 02:21:30,430

4359
02:21:44,277 --> 02:21:44,845
have five key required

4360
02:21:44,845 --> 02:21:45,445

02:21:49,416 --> 02:21:50,150
including the development of a

4363
02:21:50,150 --> 02:21:50,517
20 year water supply and demand

4364
02:21:50,517 --> 02:21:51,184
forecast.

4365
02:21:51,184 --> 02:21:54,184

02:22:08,201 --> 02:22:08,936
implementation goals for

4376
02:22:08,936 --> 02:22:09,469
the 2025 Urban Water Management

4377
02:22:09,469 --> 02:22:11,469
Plan which included

4378
02:22:13,106 --> 02:22:13,840
the development of a credible

4379
02:22:13,840 --> 02:22:16,240
and balanced 25 year projection

4380
02:22:17,510 --> 02:22:18,145
of water demand by utilizing a

4381
02:22:18,145 --> 02:22:18,879
25 year planning horizon

4382
02:22:18,879 --> 02:22:19,279
instead of the required 20 year

4383
02:22:19,279 --> 02:22:19,947
projection.

4384
02:22:19,947 --> 02:22:22,347
We close potential planning

4385
02:22:23,482 --> 02:22:24,830
gaps during cycles where we are

4386
02:22:24,830 --> 02:22:24,551
updating the urban water

4387
02:22:24,551 --> 02:22:25,219
management plan.

4388
02:22:25,219 --> 02:22:28,819
Next we wanted to update and

4389
02:22:29,389 --> 02:22:30,570
refined our water our water

4390
02:22:30,570 --> 02:22:30,691
demand modeling approach for

4391
02:22:30,691 --> 02:22:31,391
more accurate projections.

4392
02:22:31,391 --> 02:22:33,791
This included the development

4393
02:22:35,462 --> 02:22:36,163
of an alternative on trend

4394
02:22:36,163 --> 02:22:36,796
forecasts detailed in Appendix

4395
02:22:36,796 --> 02:22:40,396
f of the draft Urban Water

4396
02:22:41,680 --> 02:22:41,802
Management Plan which is a

4397
02:22:41,802 --> 02:22:42,469
lower demand forecast than what

4398
02:22:42,469 --> 02:22:43,103
is proposed for adoption in

4399
02:22:43,103 --> 02:22:43,403
the Urban Water Management

4400
02:22:43,403 --> 02:22:45,403
plan.

4401
02:22:46,540 --> 02:22:47,207
The on trend forecast assessed

4402
02:22:47,207 --> 02:22:47,874
beauty staff with strategic

4403
02:22:47,874 --> 02:22:49,874
strategic capital investment

4404
02:22:52,646 --> 02:22:53,280
planning in the pure Water

4405
02:22:53,280 --> 02:22:53,881
Program and other cities.

4406
02:22:53,881 --> 02:22:54,515
By evaluating a range of

4407
02:22:54,515 --> 02:22:56,515
potential future demands,

4408
02:22:58,686 --> 02:22:59,286
the city can evaluate the size

4409
02:22:59,286 --> 02:22:59,920
of the water system and

4410
02:22:59,920 --> 02:23:00,621
consider downsizing where

4411
02:23:00,621 --> 02:23:03,210
appropriate to reduce capital

4412
02:23:05,590 --> 02:23:05,759
costs.

4413
02:23:05,759 --> 02:23:06,460
At the same time, the adoption

4414
02:23:06,460 --> 02:23:07,127
of a more conservative demand

4415
02:23:07,127 --> 02:23:10,127
forecast allows the city to

4416
02:23:10,363 --> 02:23:11,650
support conclusions that we

4417
02:23:11,650 --> 02:23:11,732
have adequate water supply for

4418
02:23:11,732 --> 02:23:12,433
major development projects.

4419
02:23:12,433 --> 02:23:14,833
Other housing initiatives and

4420
02:23:16,470 --> 02:23:17,104
community plan updates.

4421
02:23:17,104 --> 02:23:17,805
Our next goal included an

4422
02:23:17,805 --> 02:23:20,205
analysis of system reliability

4423
02:23:23,100 --> 02:23:23,711
and the integration of

4424
02:23:23,711 --> 02:23:24,110
the water shortage contingency

4425
02:23:24,110 --> 02:23:24,711
plan.

4426
02:23:24,711 --> 02:23:25,413
We also utilize and build upon

4427
02:23:25,413 --> 02:23:28,413
the city's Climate action Plan

4428
02:23:28,482 --> 02:23:29,149
and water conservation goals.

4429
02:23:29,149 --> 02:23:29,783
Last we prepare for future

4430
02:23:29,783 --> 02:23:32,183
inclusion and expansion of

4431
02:23:34,921 --> 02:23:35,589
local water supply development

4432
02:23:35,589 --> 02:23:36,156
as the ninth iteration of

4433
02:23:36,156 --> 02:23:36,623
the city's urban water

4434
02:23:36,623 --> 02:23:38,623
management plan.

4435
02:23:40,560 --> 02:23:41,228
Puti has continued to strive

4436
02:23:41,228 --> 02:23:41,862
for enhancing and increasing

4437
02:23:41,862 --> 02:23:44,862
the accuracy of our demand

4438
02:23:46,400 --> 02:23:47,134
forecasting approach for

4439
02:23:47,134 --> 02:23:47,435
the 2020 Urban Water Management

4440
02:23:47,435 --> 02:23:48,350
Plan.

4441
02:23:48,350 --> 02:23:48,771
Puti developed a hybrid

4442
02:23:48,771 --> 02:23:51,171
approach combining actual water

4443
02:23:52,540 --> 02:23:53,140
use data the parcel level with

4444
02:23:53,140 --> 02:23:53,841
a statistical model that

4445
02:23:53,841 --> 02:23:54,475
considers land use as well as

4446
02:23:54,475 --> 02:23:57,475
water use factors such as

4447
02:23:58,546 --> 02:23:59,146
temperature, irritable parcel

4448
02:23:59,146 --> 02:23:59,747
area number and types of

4449
02:23:59,747 --> 02:24:00,314
housing units income and

4450
02:24:00,314 --> 02:24:02,314
persons per household.

4451
02:24:05,386 --> 02:24:06,530
This hybrid approach allows us

4452
02:24:06,530 --> 02:24:06,721
to more accurately spatially

4453
02:24:06,721 --> 02:24:09,121
represent demand within our

4454
02:24:10,624 --> 02:24:11,324
service area allowing us to

4455
02:24:11,324 --> 02:24:11,859
better understand where we MAY

4456
02:24:11,859 --> 02:24:12,426
need infrastructure

4457
02:24:12,426 --> 02:24:14,426
improvements based on

4458
02:24:15,963 --> 02:24:16,463
the increased accuracy of

4459
02:24:16,463 --> 02:24:17,164
the 2020 forecast.

4460
02:24:17,164 --> 02:24:17,865
The first step for the demand

4461
02:24:17,865 --> 02:24:20,265
forecasting in the 2025 Urban

4462
02:24:22,336 --> 02:24:22,937
Water Management Plan was

4463
02:24:22,937 --> 02:24:23,603
adopting the 2020 model.

4464
02:24:23,603 --> 02:24:24,305
This included analyzing and

4465
02:24:24,305 --> 02:24:27,305
updating the water use factors

4466
02:24:28,442 --> 02:24:29,110
based on recent water usage

4467
02:24:29,110 --> 02:24:29,776
trends and accepted planning

4468
02:24:29,776 --> 02:24:32,176
practices in accordance with

4469
02:24:33,681 --> 02:24:34,448
the guidelines.

4470
02:24:34,448 --> 02:24:35,820
Next we utilize the sandag

4471
02:24:35,820 --> 02:24:37,820
Theory 15 Regional Growth

4472
02:24:39,220 --> 02:24:39,887
forecast to assess population

4473
02:24:39,887 --> 02:24:40,621
growth within the 30 service

4474
02:24:40,621 --> 02:24:43,621
area over the planning horizon.

4475
02:24:44,358 --> 02:24:45,590
Sandag Theory 15 Includes

4476
02:24:45,590 --> 02:24:45,560
projected household population

4477
02:24:45,560 --> 02:24:46,226
Total population.

4478
02:24:46,226 --> 02:24:48,626
Information on single family

4479
02:24:51,320 --> 02:24:51,666
and multifamily occupied units

4480
02:24:51,666 --> 02:24:52,300
Household income projected

4481
02:24:52,300 --> 02:24:54,700
Total employment by census

4482
02:24:57,471 --> 02:24:58,172
track and information on

4483
02:24:58,172 --> 02:24:58,873
development and redevelopment

4484
02:24:58,873 --> 02:25:01,873
projected out to the year 2050

4485
02:25:02,844 --> 02:25:03,511
In comparison to the sandag

4486
02:25:03,511 --> 02:25:04,145
Theory 14 forecast which was

4487
02:25:04,145 --> 02:25:06,545
utilized in the 2020 Urban

4488
02:25:07,982 --> 02:25:08,616
Water Management Plan series 15

4489
02:25:08,616 --> 02:25:09,283
projects roughly 12 to 17%

4490
02:25:09,283 --> 02:25:11,683
reduction in the forecasted

4491
02:25:14,422 --> 02:25:15,122
population in total households

4492
02:25:15,122 --> 02:25:18,122
within the city service area.

4493
02:25:18,827 --> 02:25:19,526
That had a significant impact

4494
02:25:19,526 --> 02:25:20,161
on the 2025 demand forecast

4495
02:25:20,161 --> 02:25:20,727
which will be detailed in

4496
02:25:20,727 --> 02:25:22,727
the following slides.

4497
02:25:25,660 --> 02:25:25,766
Next we select a base period

4498
02:25:25,766 --> 02:25:26,467
based on hydrologic conditions

4499
02:25:26,467 --> 02:25:31,500
so we want to look at a rainy

4500
02:25:31,500 --> 02:25:31,706
year as well as a dry year and

4501
02:25:31,706 --> 02:25:32,206
corresponding water use trends

4502
02:25:32,206 --> 02:25:32,907
for billing data.

4503
02:25:32,907 --> 02:25:35,907
Our base period also overlaps

4504
02:25:36,760 --> 02:25:36,711
with sandag 315 base period

4505
02:25:36,711 --> 02:25:37,780
which increases our model

4506
02:25:37,780 --> 02:25:39,780
accuracy.

4507
02:25:41,882 --> 02:25:42,584
Last we incorporate water

4508
02:25:42,584 --> 02:25:43,284
conservation savings based on

4509
02:25:43,284 --> 02:25:43,985
compliance with existing state

4510
02:25:43,985 --> 02:25:46,385
mandated conservation and new

4511
02:25:48,489 --> 02:25:49,223
upcoming regulations.

4512
02:25:49,223 --> 02:25:50,240
>> Puti is confident that we

4513
02:25:50,240 --> 02:25:53,240
have developed a defensible and

4514
02:25:54,562 --> 02:25:55,263
more accurate demand forecast

4515
02:25:55,263 --> 02:25:55,663
for the city as visualized on

4516
02:25:55,663 --> 02:25:56,231
this slide.

4517
02:25:56,231 --> 02:25:59,231
The graph on the left

4518
02:26:00,301 --> 02:26:01,690
illustrates historic potable

4519
02:26:01,690 --> 02:26:04,669
water usage shown in blue as

4520
02:26:05,340 --> 02:26:06,740
well as the 2025 more water

4521
02:26:06,740 --> 02:26:06,541
management plan demand forecast

4522
02:26:06,541 --> 02:26:07,274
shown in orange.

4523
02:26:07,274 --> 02:26:10,874
The table on the right provides

4524
02:26:12,130 --> 02:26:12,713
a specific breakdown on total

4525
02:26:12,713 --> 02:26:13,247
potable and non-potable water

4526
02:26:13,247 --> 02:26:15,647
usage by sector with

4527
02:26:17,352 --> 02:26:17,986
residential water usage making

4528
02:26:17,986 --> 02:26:18,586
up the majority of demand

4529
02:26:18,586 --> 02:26:19,287
within our service area.

4530
02:26:19,287 --> 02:26:22,287
More than 50% of the demand

4531
02:26:23,158 --> 02:26:23,891
forecast to be adopted in

4532
02:26:23,891 --> 02:26:24,592
the Urban Water Management Plan

4533
02:26:24,592 --> 02:26:25,326
represents a measured approach

4534
02:26:25,326 --> 02:26:28,926
with respect to long term water

4535
02:26:29,631 --> 02:26:30,331
supply planning and meets

4536
02:26:30,331 --> 02:26:30,999
the regulatory planning goals

4537
02:26:30,999 --> 02:26:31,466
defined by the Department of

4538
02:26:31,466 --> 02:26:33,466
Water Resources.

4539
02:26:34,368 --> 02:26:35,700
The 2025 Urban Water Management

4540
02:26:35,700 --> 02:26:38,700
Plan is projecting a lower 25

4541
02:26:38,673 --> 02:26:39,240
year demand than the 2020 Urban

4542
02:26:39,240 --> 02:26:39,874
Water Management Plan,

4543
02:26:39,874 --> 02:26:40,575
primarily based on reduced

4544
02:26:40,575 --> 02:26:42,975
growth projections included in

4545
02:26:44,612 --> 02:26:45,347
sandag Theory 15 based on

4546
02:26:45,347 --> 02:26:47,747
the updated 315 growth forecast

4547
02:26:49,918 --> 02:26:50,652
and water usage in the city.

4548
02:26:50,652 --> 02:26:51,352
>> There is also now a

4549
02:26:51,352 --> 02:26:53,752
projected flattening of water

4550
02:26:55,991 --> 02:26:56,657
demand out to the year 2050 for

4551
02:26:56,657 --> 02:26:57,124
the development of the 2025

4552
02:26:57,124 --> 02:26:57,792
demand forecast.

4553
02:26:57,792 --> 02:26:59,792
>> Additionally analyze our

4554
02:27:02,300 --> 02:27:02,697
historic water usage and legacy

4555
02:27:02,697 --> 02:27:03,398
forecast from previous urban

4556
02:27:03,398 --> 02:27:06,398
water management plans as can

4557
02:27:07,435 --> 02:27:08,170
be seen on the slide similar to

4558
02:27:08,170 --> 02:27:08,803
the previous graph on Slide six

4559
02:27:08,803 --> 02:27:09,470
the blue line illustrates

4560
02:27:09,470 --> 02:27:12,470
the historic water usage for

4561
02:27:14,242 --> 02:27:14,976
potable water demand in

4562
02:27:14,976 --> 02:27:15,577
the city and the hash line show

4563
02:27:15,577 --> 02:27:16,144
the pass for urban water

4564
02:27:16,144 --> 02:27:18,144
management plan demand

4565
02:27:19,548 --> 02:27:19,847
forecasts for historic water

4566
02:27:19,847 --> 02:27:20,515
usage.

4567
02:27:20,515 --> 02:27:23,515
The city's water demand has

4568
02:27:24,286 --> 02:27:24,886
decreased by 34% over the past

4569
02:27:24,886 --> 02:27:26,886
two decades despite

4570
02:27:28,957 --> 02:27:29,558
the population growing from

4571
02:27:29,558 --> 02:27:30,258
1.29 million in 2007 to

4572
02:27:30,258 --> 02:27:33,258
the current peak customer base

4573
02:27:34,960 --> 02:27:34,463
of nearly 1.4 million

4574
02:27:34,463 --> 02:27:35,990
residents.

4575
02:27:35,990 --> 02:27:35,664
This is primarily based on

4576
02:27:35,664 --> 02:27:36,298
statewide droughts and

4577
02:27:36,298 --> 02:27:38,298
subsequent mandatory water

4578
02:27:40,702 --> 02:27:41,403
conservation regulations that

4579
02:27:41,403 --> 02:27:41,703
have decreased customer water

4580
02:27:41,703 --> 02:27:42,371
usage.

4581
02:27:42,371 --> 02:27:45,371
When looking at the previous

4582
02:27:46,740 --> 02:27:46,675
urban water management plan

4583
02:27:46,675 --> 02:27:47,309
forecasts, the city has

4584
02:27:47,309 --> 02:27:47,642
historically overestimated

4585
02:27:47,642 --> 02:27:48,310
demand.

4586
02:27:48,310 --> 02:27:51,910
A primary driver of this is

4587
02:27:52,648 --> 02:27:53,381
the use of regional growth

4588
02:27:53,381 --> 02:27:53,882
forecasts which are required by

4589
02:27:53,882 --> 02:27:54,483
market guidelines.

4590
02:27:54,483 --> 02:27:56,883
However, in more recent

4591
02:27:58,654 --> 02:27:59,388
iterations our urban water

4592
02:27:59,388 --> 02:27:59,754
management plans have been more

4593
02:27:59,754 --> 02:28:00,455
accurate.

4594
02:28:00,455 --> 02:28:03,455
Puti updated its water demand

4595
02:28:04,626 --> 02:28:05,326
modeling methodology

4596
02:28:05,326 --> 02:28:05,928
incorporating actual water use

4597
02:28:05,928 --> 02:28:07,928
trends, recognizing that

4598
02:28:09,698 --> 02:28:10,331
customer use has significantly

4599
02:28:10,331 --> 02:28:10,665
shifted over the past two

4600
02:28:10,665 --> 02:28:11,365
decades.

4601
02:28:11,365 --> 02:28:11,934
Additionally, refinements from

4602
02:28:11,934 --> 02:28:14,334
sandag in their growth

4603
02:28:14,803 --> 02:28:15,370
forecasts for the region have

4604
02:28:15,370 --> 02:28:15,971
increased accuracy in

4605
02:28:15,971 --> 02:28:16,405
the demand forecast for

4606
02:28:16,405 --> 02:28:18,405
the 2025 plan.

4607
02:28:21,877 --> 02:28:22,544
An adequate and reliable water

4608
02:28:22,544 --> 02:28:23,278
supply is vital for the city

4609
02:28:23,278 --> 02:28:26,278
and demand has greatly outpaced

4610
02:28:27,115 --> 02:28:27,749
local supply from rain.

4611
02:28:27,749 --> 02:28:28,449
The city has historically

4612
02:28:28,449 --> 02:28:29,151
purchased roughly 70 to 90% of

4613
02:28:29,151 --> 02:28:32,151
our water supply which is

4614
02:28:33,889 --> 02:28:34,556
imported from Northern

4615
02:28:34,556 --> 02:28:34,857
California and the Colorado

4616
02:28:34,857 --> 02:28:35,557
River.

4617
02:28:35,557 --> 02:28:38,557
Pudi actively pursues ways to

4618
02:28:39,227 --> 02:28:39,861
increase and diversify local

4619
02:28:39,861 --> 02:28:40,262
water supply and maintain

4620
02:28:40,262 --> 02:28:40,829
reliability.

4621
02:28:40,829 --> 02:28:42,829
This includes pursuing

4622
02:28:45,267 --> 02:28:45,968
additional local supplies and

4623
02:28:45,968 --> 02:28:46,601
maximizing the utilization of

4624
02:28:46,601 --> 02:28:47,202
our existing surface water

4625
02:28:47,202 --> 02:28:49,202
groundwater non-potable

4626
02:28:51,707 --> 02:28:52,408
recycled water and in the near

4627
02:28:52,408 --> 02:28:52,908
future pure water as required

4628
02:28:52,908 --> 02:28:55,308
by the water Code.

4629
02:28:57,120 --> 02:28:57,646
The 2025 Urban Water Management

4630
02:28:57,646 --> 02:28:58,280
Plan analyzes water supply

4631
02:28:58,280 --> 02:28:58,881
reliability under multiple

4632
02:28:58,881 --> 02:29:00,881
hydrologic conditions to

4633
02:29:03,151 --> 02:29:03,852
confirm that the city has

4634
02:29:03,852 --> 02:29:04,586
adequate supplies and methods

4635
02:29:04,586 --> 02:29:05,220
established for reducing demand

4636
02:29:05,220 --> 02:29:08,220
during times of single or

4637
02:29:09,658 --> 02:29:10,292
multiple dry year periods and

4638
02:29:10,292 --> 02:29:10,993
through coordination with

4639
02:29:10,993 --> 02:29:12,261
the County Water Authority can

4640
02:29:12,261 --> 02:29:14,661
supplement any projected supply

4641
02:29:18,867 --> 02:29:19,168
deficiencies as they MAY arise

4642
02:29:19,168 --> 02:29:19,801
.

4643
02:29:19,801 --> 02:29:20,469
>> Based on the city's

4644
02:29:20,469 --> 02:29:21,136
projected increase in local

4645
02:29:21,136 --> 02:29:23,536
supplies and reduced demand

4646
02:29:25,174 --> 02:29:25,908
forecast in comparison to

4647
02:29:25,908 --> 02:29:26,609
the 2020 Urban Water Management

4648
02:29:26,609 --> 02:29:29,609
Plan, the city is anticipating

4649
02:29:31,480 --> 02:29:32,181
to utilize less important water

4650
02:29:32,181 --> 02:29:32,715
supplies into the future than

4651
02:29:32,715 --> 02:29:34,715
previously expected.

4652
02:29:36,485 --> 02:29:37,152
By 2030 the city anticipates

4653
02:29:37,152 --> 02:29:39,552
using 40% local supplies and

4654
02:29:41,423 --> 02:29:42,240
70% by 2050 with the majority

4655
02:29:42,240 --> 02:29:42,691
of local supplies being

4656
02:29:42,691 --> 02:29:45,691
supplied by the city's pure

4657
02:29:46,896 --> 02:29:47,596
water program.

4658
02:29:47,596 --> 02:29:48,264
The development of local water

4659
02:29:48,264 --> 02:29:48,998
supplies and transition from

4660
02:29:48,998 --> 02:29:51,398
imported supplies will directly

4661
02:29:53,350 --> 02:29:53,669
benefit parity with water

4662
02:29:53,669 --> 02:29:54,236
supply reliability during

4663
02:29:54,236 --> 02:29:56,636
periods of multi drier

4664
02:29:58,741 --> 02:29:59,475
conditions as well as reducing

4665
02:29:59,475 --> 02:30:00,142
the cumulative energy intensity

4666
02:30:00,142 --> 02:30:00,809
required for conveyance and

4667
02:30:00,809 --> 02:30:03,209
distribution thus making it

4668
02:30:05,470 --> 02:30:05,414
more sustainable and cost

4669
02:30:05,414 --> 02:30:06,810
effective.

4670
02:30:06,810 --> 02:30:06,716
The updated energy intensity

4671
02:30:06,716 --> 02:30:07,316
data from the Urban Water

4672
02:30:07,316 --> 02:30:09,716
Management Plan will be

4673
02:30:12,540 --> 02:30:12,688
utilized to aid in the five

4674
02:30:12,688 --> 02:30:13,422
year update of the city's

4675
02:30:13,422 --> 02:30:14,560
Climate Action Plan in the near

4676
02:30:14,560 --> 02:30:14,656
future and is included in

4677
02:30:14,656 --> 02:30:17,560
the city's ghg emissions

4678
02:30:20,262 --> 02:30:20,930
strategies.

4679
02:30:20,930 --> 02:30:21,564
Based on historic water

4680
02:30:21,564 --> 02:30:22,164
conservation by customers,

4681
02:30:22,164 --> 02:30:22,798
the city is currently in

4682
02:30:22,798 --> 02:30:25,198
compliance with all state

4683
02:30:26,669 --> 02:30:27,690
mandated conservation

4684
02:30:27,690 --> 02:30:27,770
regulations.

4685
02:30:27,770 --> 02:30:30,770
Specifically the city has met

4686
02:30:31,607 --> 02:30:32,308
the Water Conservation Act

4687
02:30:32,308 --> 02:30:32,975
requirements which with a 20%

4688
02:30:32,975 --> 02:30:33,275
demand reduction by the year

4689
02:30:33,275 --> 02:30:33,976
2020.

4690
02:30:33,976 --> 02:30:37,576
We are meeting the model water

4691
02:30:37,647 --> 02:30:38,247
efficient landscape ordinance

4692
02:30:38,247 --> 02:30:38,614
and our urban water use

4693
02:30:38,614 --> 02:30:39,348
objective.

4694
02:30:39,348 --> 02:30:42,348
The Urban Water Management Plan

4695
02:30:43,286 --> 02:30:43,986
incorporated additional

4696
02:30:43,986 --> 02:30:44,655
conservation for outdoor water

4697
02:30:44,655 --> 02:30:47,655
usage in the demand forecast

4698
02:30:48,624 --> 02:30:49,291
for future compliance with

4699
02:30:49,291 --> 02:30:50,290
Assembly Bill 1572 which is

4700
02:30:50,290 --> 02:30:50,393
also known as the nonfunctional

4701
02:30:50,393 --> 02:30:52,393
turf ban.

4702
02:30:54,564 --> 02:30:55,198
The city continues to offer

4703
02:30:55,198 --> 02:30:55,831
active water conservation

4704
02:30:55,831 --> 02:30:56,499
programs largely driven by

4705
02:30:56,499 --> 02:30:58,499
state regulations including

4706
02:30:58,668 --> 02:31:01,680
residential water surveys and

4707
02:31:05,141 --> 02:31:05,841
water conservation rebates as

4708
02:31:05,841 --> 02:31:06,409
required by the water code and

4709
02:31:06,409 --> 02:31:07,110
previously mentioned.

4710
02:31:07,110 --> 02:31:10,710
The city must also prepare and

4711
02:31:10,779 --> 02:31:11,514
adopt a water shortage

4712
02:31:11,514 --> 02:31:12,248
contingency plan in conjunction

4713
02:31:12,248 --> 02:31:12,548
with the Urban Water Management

4714
02:31:12,548 --> 02:31:13,182
Plan.

4715
02:31:13,182 --> 02:31:15,182
Water shortage Contingency

4716
02:31:16,953 --> 02:31:17,653
plans provide the plan in

4717
02:31:17,653 --> 02:31:18,354
the event of a declared water

4718
02:31:18,354 --> 02:31:19,870
emergency or enactment of more

4719
02:31:19,870 --> 02:31:21,487
stringent restrictions on water

4720
02:31:22,491 --> 02:31:23,159
use allowing the city to

4721
02:31:23,159 --> 02:31:23,826
respond in an efficient and

4722
02:31:23,826 --> 02:31:24,394
timely manner to manage and

4723
02:31:24,394 --> 02:31:26,394
mitigate any potential

4724
02:31:28,331 --> 02:31:28,964
shortages.

4725
02:31:28,964 --> 02:31:29,665
The plan identifies how

4726
02:31:29,665 --> 02:31:30,300
the city will annually assess

4727
02:31:30,300 --> 02:31:33,300
water supply and demand to

4728
02:31:34,437 --> 02:31:34,871
determine if a water shortage

4729
02:31:34,871 --> 02:31:35,538
exists.

4730
02:31:35,538 --> 02:31:36,139
Shown on the slide are

4731
02:31:36,139 --> 02:31:36,772
the sixth standard water

4732
02:31:36,772 --> 02:31:39,172
shortage levels and their

4733
02:31:40,576 --> 02:31:41,244
corresponding shortage range

4734
02:31:41,244 --> 02:31:41,977
that lead to a variety of

4735
02:31:41,977 --> 02:31:42,545
response actions in addition to

4736
02:31:42,545 --> 02:31:43,613
permanent water based

4737
02:31:43,613 --> 02:31:45,613
prohibitions and ongoing

4738
02:31:50,653 --> 02:31:51,421
consumption reduction methods.

4739
02:31:51,421 --> 02:31:52,210
The table on the slide shows an

4740
02:31:52,210 --> 02:31:54,210
example of corresponding

4741
02:31:54,891 --> 02:31:55,591
shortage response actions to

4742
02:31:55,591 --> 02:31:56,359
water shortage level one which

4743
02:31:56,359 --> 02:31:57,600
is up to a 10% shortage in

4744
02:31:57,600 --> 02:31:59,460
supply compared to anticipated

4745
02:32:01,664 --> 02:32:02,364
demand.

4746
02:32:02,364 --> 02:32:03,660
Each water shortage level has

4747
02:32:03,660 --> 02:32:03,766
corresponding response actions

4748
02:32:03,766 --> 02:32:07,300
that are categorized as one of

4749
02:32:07,300 --> 02:32:07,569
the following by the Department

4750
02:32:07,569 --> 02:32:08,204
of Water Resources.

4751

Senior Elder you are here.

4823
02:34:00,650 --> 02:34:01,651
Please come to the mic after

that we'll be back because this

4825
02:34:07,390 --> 02:34:11,590
game will be a minute and a

4826
02:34:12,963 --> 02:34:13,463
half.

4827
02:34:13,463 --> 02:34:13,830
All right.

4828
02:34:13,830 --> 02:34:14,631
Thank you.

4829
02:34:14,631 --> 02:34:15,232
I just walked in from doing my

4830
02:34:15,232 --> 02:34:17,232
chores around downtown.

4831
02:34:18,135 --> 02:34:18,901
Hi again.

4832
02:34:18,901 --> 02:34:19,568
I was listening to this item.

4833
02:34:19,568 --> 02:34:22,568
I thank you for it.

4834
02:34:25,375 --> 02:34:26,760
We're coming up on a pure water

4835
02:34:26,760 --> 02:34:26,743
feature because look what you

4836
02:34:26,743 --> 02:34:30,343
can be doing with this item.

4837
02:34:31,682 --> 02:34:32,282
I really hopeful what we can be

4838
02:34:32,282 --> 02:34:32,983
doing with the future of

4839
02:34:32,983 --> 02:34:35,983
the public process and working

4840
02:34:37,487 --> 02:34:37,822
with water board issues

4841
02:34:37,822 --> 02:34:38,555
overall.

4842
02:34:38,555 --> 02:34:41,555
I think it's really important

4843
02:34:43,193 --> 02:34:43,861
for ourselves a reminder and

4844
02:34:43,861 --> 02:34:44,461
how important what building

4845
02:34:44,461 --> 02:34:45,129
the future of our public

4846
02:34:45,129 --> 02:34:48,729
process means to us at this

4847
02:34:49,666 --> 02:34:50,434
time and place in our history

4848
02:34:50,434 --> 02:34:50,801
and what we can be doing for

4849
02:34:50,801 --> 02:34:52,801
ourselves.

4850
02:34:55,104 --> 02:34:55,739
I think it always should be

4851
02:34:55,739 --> 02:34:56,473
remembered what the public

4852
02:34:56,473 --> 02:34:58,473
participation participation can

4853
02:35:00,476 --> 02:35:01,780
do for the process.

4854
02:35:01,780 --> 02:35:01,812
I think we're growing.

4855
02:35:01,812 --> 02:35:04,812
Imagine what the public process

4856
02:35:07,551 --> 02:35:08,251
was like in times of war in 911

4857
02:35:08,251 --> 02:35:11,251
compared to now We're starting

4858
02:35:12,790 --> 02:35:13,457
to ask questions more and be

4859
02:35:13,457 --> 02:35:17,570
more open and clear and that

4860
02:35:19,128 --> 02:35:19,729
develops better reasoning and

4861
02:35:19,729 --> 02:35:20,430
that is our future.

4862
02:35:20,430 --> 02:35:21,165
Good luck in the efforts What

4863
02:35:21,165 --> 02:35:21,531
you can do with the water board

4864
02:35:21,531 --> 02:35:21,899
with this.

4865
02:35:21,899 --> 02:35:22,433
Thank you.

4866
02:35:22,433 --> 02:35:24,433
Thank you.

4867
02:35:34,544 --> 02:35:35,145
Subcommittee as I mentioned in

4868
02:35:35,145 --> 02:35:35,846
your earlier item it is

4869
02:35:35,846 --> 02:35:38,846
population that drives all of

4870
02:35:40,517 --> 02:35:41,510
this city's major problems

4871
02:35:41,510 --> 02:35:43,510
including water use.

4872
02:35:45,823 --> 02:35:46,523
Virtually all citizens would

4873
02:35:46,523 --> 02:35:46,824
prefer a less crowded San

4874
02:35:46,824 --> 02:35:48,824
Diego.

4875
02:35:50,961 --> 02:35:51,662
However, it is our growing

4876
02:35:51,662 --> 02:35:54,662
population that makes each of

4877
02:35:57,134 --> 02:35:57,767
you more powerful and more

4878
02:35:57,767 --> 02:35:58,402
likely to ascend to higher

4879
02:35:58,402 --> 02:36:00,802
offices in our government.

4880
02:36:03,574 --> 02:36:04,175
I think that's a pretty fair

4881
02:36:04,175 --> 02:36:04,541
characterization of our

4882
02:36:04,541 --> 02:36:06,541
problems.

4883
02:36:09,113 --> 02:36:09,646
Thank you for the five minute

4884
02:36:09,646 --> 02:36:10,247
time record of those

4885
02:36:10,247 --> 02:36:12,247
participating remotely.

4886
02:36:12,950 --> 02:36:14,950
We have Tony.

4887
02:36:18,122 --> 02:36:18,856
Please unmute.

4888
02:36:18,856 --> 02:36:19,623
>> Hey how's it going?

4889
02:36:19,623 --> 02:36:23,223
City Council can you hear me?

4890
02:36:24,328 --> 02:36:24,628
Yes please proceed.

4891
02:36:24,628 --> 02:36:25,290
Okay.

4892
02:36:25,290 --> 02:36:25,496
Thank you.

4893
02:36:25,496 --> 02:36:27,496
How's it going?

4894
02:36:29,667 --> 02:36:30,401
I just wanted to speak to

4895
02:36:30,401 --> 02:36:31,101
the Urban Water Management plan

4896
02:36:31,101 --> 02:36:31,402
and the presentation that was

4897
02:36:31,402 --> 02:36:33,402
given.

4898
02:36:35,139 --> 02:36:35,940
It's really good presentation.

4899
02:36:35,940 --> 02:36:36,273
I encourage the staff to look

4900
02:36:36,273 --> 02:36:36,974
into it.

4901
02:36:36,974 --> 02:36:37,641
i'm sure they have already but

4902
02:36:37,641 --> 02:36:40,641
I really encourage them into

4903
02:36:43,414 --> 02:36:43,981
looking into permaculture water

4904
02:36:43,981 --> 02:36:44,682
collection devices and

4905
02:36:44,682 --> 02:36:46,682
permaculture water collection

4906
02:36:48,953 --> 02:36:49,988
just in general.

4907
02:36:49,988 --> 02:36:54,525
I did not see and excuse me if

4908
02:36:54,525 --> 02:36:55,326
I if I missed it I'm doing some

4909
02:36:55,326 --> 02:36:55,993
cleaning right now so I just

4910
02:36:55,993 --> 02:36:56,794
hearing the presentation out

4911
02:36:56,794 --> 02:37:00,310
loud but I did not see anything

4912
02:37:00,310 --> 02:37:00,798
about collection of rainwater

4913
02:37:00,798 --> 02:37:03,798
from rooftops All of our

4914
02:37:05,903 --> 02:37:06,570
rooftops are enormous pools an

4915
02:37:06,570 --> 02:37:07,305
enormous wasted opportunity

4916
02:37:07,305 --> 02:37:10,905
currently in all of our gutters

4917
02:37:11,410 --> 02:37:11,642
because they're just going

4918
02:37:11,642 --> 02:37:12,410
right into storm drains.

4919
02:37:12,410 --> 02:37:16,100
All of that is mostly clean

4920
02:37:16,647 --> 02:37:17,281
water and I say mostly because

4921
02:37:17,281 --> 02:37:17,982
it's acidic and that's why

4922
02:37:17,982 --> 02:37:18,648
we're having problems with our

4923
02:37:18,648 --> 02:37:21,648
avocado growers in San Diego

4924
02:37:22,119 --> 02:37:22,820
that have traditionally done so

4925
02:37:22,820 --> 02:37:23,521
well because our we have so

4926
02:37:23,521 --> 02:37:26,521
much contamination in the air

4927
02:37:27,558 --> 02:37:28,359
now that it's causing more

4928
02:37:28,359 --> 02:37:29,260
acidic more acidity in our in

4929
02:37:29,260 --> 02:37:29,526
our water which is affecting

4930
02:37:29,526 --> 02:37:31,926
our crops as well.

4931
02:37:33,300 --> 02:37:37,230
But anyway, we can we can work

4932
02:37:39,137 --> 02:37:42,137
on that reducing the or

4933
02:37:42,452 --> 02:37:44,475
balancing a each of the water

4934
02:37:44,475 --> 02:37:45,143
reducing its contaminants But

4935
02:37:45,143 --> 02:37:45,843
in essence we should be

4936
02:37:45,843 --> 02:37:46,444
collecting all that rainwater.

4937
02:37:46,444 --> 02:37:50,440
If we if we invested in

4938
02:37:50,810 --> 02:37:50,948
rainwater storage collection

4939
02:37:50,948 --> 02:37:51,716
tanks that would be a huge way

4940
02:37:51,716 --> 02:37:55,316
to go about getting ahead of

4941
02:37:56,921 --> 02:37:57,622
this problem.

4942
02:37:57,622 --> 02:37:58,356
>> So time has concluded.

4943
02:37:58,356 --> 02:38:01,192
The next is the original If you

4944
02:38:01,192 --> 02:38:01,925
can please email.

4945
02:38:01,925 --> 02:38:02,593
I'm wondering what's coming

4946
02:38:02,593 --> 02:38:06,193
down the pike because as you

4947
02:38:07,980 --> 02:38:07,698
talk about a water shortage we

4948
02:38:07,698 --> 02:38:08,366
always know that there's

4949
02:38:08,366 --> 02:38:11,366
something that's going to be

4950
02:38:12,360 --> 02:38:12,670
coming and you know it's all

4951
02:38:12,670 --> 02:38:13,404
about control controlling

4952
02:38:13,404 --> 02:38:17,400
the resources And when you guys

4953
02:38:17,675 --> 02:38:18,476
put in your smart meters then

4954
02:38:18,476 --> 02:38:19,143
when you say that people have

4955
02:38:19,143 --> 02:38:19,877
used too much water you can,

4956
02:38:19,877 --> 02:38:22,814
you know, shut it off And I

4957
02:38:22,814 --> 02:38:23,448
mean this already came down

4958
02:38:23,448 --> 02:38:24,115
because you guys have been

4959
02:38:24,115 --> 02:38:24,816
talking about a drought and

4960
02:38:24,816 --> 02:38:28,416
it's like you don't really act

4961
02:38:28,685 --> 02:38:29,530
like we're having problems with

4962
02:38:29,530 --> 02:38:29,954
the water.

4963
02:38:29,954 --> 02:38:32,590
I mean you buy it, you sell it

4964
02:38:32,590 --> 02:38:33,291
when you're transferring it

4965
02:38:33,291 --> 02:38:34,580
like 50% of it gets lost.

4966
02:38:34,580 --> 02:38:37,762
I mean it's just the way that

4967
02:38:37,762 --> 02:38:38,596
you guys treat it.

4968
02:38:38,596 --> 02:38:39,297
It's it's not it's scarcity And

4969
02:38:39,297 --> 02:38:40,980
that's the problem is that you

4970
02:38:40,980 --> 02:38:43,701
want to say it is but your

4971
02:38:43,701 --> 02:38:44,402
actions speak louder than that

4972
02:38:44,402 --> 02:38:45,103
because you wouldn't like pour

4973
02:38:45,103 --> 02:38:48,706
half of the glass of water out

4974
02:38:48,706 --> 02:38:49,374
if that's all you had left you

4975
02:38:49,374 --> 02:38:50,410
would make sure that you're

4976
02:38:50,410 --> 02:38:50,541
preserving it and you can't

4977
02:38:50,541 --> 02:38:52,941
even keep up with

4978
02:38:53,811 --> 02:38:54,612
the infrastructure that is

4979
02:38:54,612 --> 02:38:55,279
needed to make sure that we

4980
02:38:55,279 --> 02:38:55,980
have an abundance of water.

4981
02:38:55,980 --> 02:38:56,481
And the problem is is that you

4982
02:38:56,481 --> 02:38:58,881
can drill for it.

4983
02:38:59,617 --> 02:39:00,318
You guys want to give us back

4984
02:39:00,318 --> 02:39:01,520
our own sewage and put a bunch

4985
02:39:01,520 --> 02:39:04,188
of chemicals in it and say that

4986
02:39:04,188 --> 02:39:05,560
it's cleaner than the Colorado

4987
02:39:05,560 --> 02:39:05,656
River And it's like I mean how

4988
02:39:05,656 --> 02:39:08,656
is that when you're like

4989
02:39:09,260 --> 02:39:10,280
literally talk supplying it

4990
02:39:10,280 --> 02:39:10,795
with things that are deadly to

4991
02:39:10,795 --> 02:39:14,395
the human body and then saying

4992
02:39:15,660 --> 02:39:15,767
that it's better I mean it's

4993
02:39:15,767 --> 02:39:19,967
just sad the way that you guys

4994
02:39:20,271 --> 02:39:20,972
treat our resources and how you

4995
02:39:20,972 --> 02:39:21,706
treat the people and act like

4996
02:39:21,706 --> 02:39:22,440
you know, don't have a lawn and

4997
02:39:22,440 --> 02:39:25,376
don't do this because it's such

4998
02:39:25,376 --> 02:39:26,244
a scarcity again you wouldn't

4999
02:39:26,244 --> 02:39:30,215
buy and sell it like you do and

5000
02:39:30,215 --> 02:39:31,160
treat it like a business If it

5001
02:39:31,160 --> 02:39:31,683
was in scarce demand and you

5002
02:39:31,683 --> 02:39:32,384
should drill for it but you

5003
02:39:32,384 --> 02:39:34,784
won't because it's not

5004
02:39:36,254 --> 02:39:36,921
profitable.

5005
02:39:36,921 --> 02:39:37,689
>> Your time has concluded

5006
02:39:37,689 --> 02:39:41,289
Don't stop if you can please

5007
02:39:46,640 --> 02:39:46,865
And you are water It's one of

5008
02:39:46,865 --> 02:39:49,865
the essentials along with air

5009
02:39:54,306 --> 02:39:56,306
and food Water.

5010
02:40:00,110 --> 02:40:00,712
Your chart is flawed First of

5011
02:40:00,712 --> 02:40:01,460
all you've got 12% as non

5012
02:40:01,460 --> 02:40:03,460
revenue.

5013
02:40:04,883 --> 02:40:05,650
What does that mean?

5014
02:40:05,650 --> 02:40:08,650
Does that mean leak just

5015
02:40:09,354 --> 02:40:10,210
leakage or does it mean

5016
02:40:10,210 --> 02:40:10,655
the water that's given to

5017
02:40:10,655 --> 02:40:13,655
the city or your friends?

5018
02:40:14,860 --> 02:40:18,460
Is that the water tap that

5019
02:40:19,865 --> 02:40:20,531
fills the choice lake Every day

5020
02:40:20,531 --> 02:40:22,931
with potable treated water?

5021
02:40:25,169 --> 02:40:28,769
The second thing is you group

5022
02:40:29,775 --> 02:40:30,409
in irrigate you you group an

5023
02:40:30,409 --> 02:40:32,409
irrigation both decorative

5024
02:40:34,246 --> 02:40:36,246
irrigation, you know

5025
02:40:39,510 --> 02:40:39,384
landscaping and food production

5026
02:40:39,384 --> 02:40:40,218
.

5027
02:40:40,218 --> 02:40:43,218
San Diego was once food

5028
02:40:44,356 --> 02:40:47,356
independent all the water for

5029
02:40:49,361 --> 02:40:50,950
agriculture and food production

5030
02:40:50,950 --> 02:40:53,950
has been moved to residency.

5031
02:40:55,334 --> 02:40:56,167
You need to break that category

5032
02:40:56,167 --> 02:40:59,767
out so that you have a

5033
02:41:00,472 --> 02:41:00,939
contingency plan for continuing

5034
02:41:00,939 --> 02:41:02,939
food production.

5035
02:41:05,477 --> 02:41:06,345
I mean is the plan we're going

5036
02:41:06,345 --> 02:41:10,545
to take cut down every tree and

5037
02:41:10,682 --> 02:41:11,350
stop grazing every crop?

5038
02:41:11,350 --> 02:41:11,849
>> Thank you very much.

5039
02:41:11,849 --> 02:41:13,849
Thank you.

5040
02:41:15,530 --> 02:41:15,686
The five minute timer has

5041
02:41:15,686 --> 02:41:16,288
concluded here in council

5042
02:41:16,288 --> 02:41:16,922
chambers There are four

5043
02:41:16,922 --> 02:41:19,391
speakers in the queue and

5044
02:41:19,391 --> 02:41:19,691
additional speakers will be

5045
02:41:19,691 --> 02:41:20,459
taken.

5046
02:41:20,459 --> 02:41:20,926
>> Andrea I think if you can

5047
02:41:20,926 --> 02:41:22,926
please proceed.

5048
02:41:25,197 --> 02:41:26,640
Now this is Andrea Ebbing and I

5049
02:41:26,640 --> 02:41:29,664
just wanted to bring up this

5050
02:41:29,768 --> 02:41:30,535
like a data center in Georgia.

5051
02:41:30,535 --> 02:41:32,935
>> Good news today that 30

5052
02:41:34,139 --> 02:41:34,873
million gallons of water was

5053
02:41:34,873 --> 02:41:38,473
basically like not paid for and

5054
02:41:39,545 --> 02:41:40,278
wasted and nobody noticed.

5055
02:41:40,278 --> 02:41:40,879
I know that we're looking at

5056
02:41:40,879 --> 02:41:43,879
the same valley and like

5057
02:41:44,483 --> 02:41:45,150
different projects and we

5058
02:41:45,150 --> 02:41:48,150
should consider that and we

5059
02:41:49,421 --> 02:41:50,121
should consider the you know,

5060
02:41:50,121 --> 02:41:50,789
paying close attention whoever

5061
02:41:50,789 --> 02:41:53,189
feels this particular issue

5062
02:41:54,250 --> 02:41:54,860
closest to their heart.

5063
02:41:54,860 --> 02:41:55,561
You know, when you have some

5064
02:41:55,561 --> 02:41:58,561
free time to investigate, dig

5065
02:41:58,664 --> 02:41:59,331
around and see what people are

5066
02:41:59,331 --> 02:41:59,931
doing Something like this 30

5067
02:41:59,931 --> 02:42:02,331
million gallons of water

5068
02:42:04,470 --> 02:42:05,271
without paying for it or nobody

5069
02:42:05,271 --> 02:42:05,871
even knew about it, I feel like

5070
02:42:05,871 --> 02:42:06,205
that could happen to us

5071
02:42:06,205 --> 02:42:08,205
Quickly.

5072
02:42:08,874 --> 02:42:09,575
Another thing I want to bring

5073
02:42:09,575 --> 02:42:10,342
up about the water is like

5074
02:42:10,342 --> 02:42:13,342
maybe when we are approving

5075
02:42:14,313 --> 02:42:14,914
massive buildouts for

5076
02:42:14,914 --> 02:42:16,914
businesses specifically

5077
02:42:19,451 --> 02:42:20,152
businesses like the I fly that

5078
02:42:20,152 --> 02:42:20,619
like place where you would be

5079
02:42:20,619 --> 02:42:22,619
like skydiving.

5080
02:42:24,490 --> 02:42:25,191
I do think that there's an

5081
02:42:25,191 --> 02:42:25,958
impact in the amount of water

5082
02:42:25,958 --> 02:42:29,762
it takes to build a place like

5083
02:42:29,762 --> 02:42:30,196
that that really just didn't

5084
02:42:30,196 --> 02:42:30,930
have a future.

5085
02:42:30,930 --> 02:42:31,964
Like if you had presented that

5086
02:42:31,964 --> 02:42:34,533
idea to me to build that in San

5087
02:42:34,533 --> 02:42:35,200
Diego I'd be like That sounds

5088
02:42:35,200 --> 02:42:38,800
kind of novel and maybe that

5089
02:42:38,871 --> 02:42:39,210
would be fun for like a few

5090
02:42:39,210 --> 02:42:39,939
months.

5091
02:42:39,939 --> 02:42:40,572
But with the costs associated

5092
02:42:40,572 --> 02:42:43,275
and the whole production I

5093
02:42:43,275 --> 02:42:43,576
probably would have rejected it

5094
02:42:43,576 --> 02:42:44,343
.

5095
02:42:44,343 --> 02:42:47,943
So I think stuff like that

5096
02:42:48,347 --> 02:42:49,810
would be helpful in conserving

5097
02:42:49,810 --> 02:42:49,715
the water and then just keeping

5098
02:42:49,715 --> 02:42:53,686
the rates low for us is to

5099
02:42:53,686 --> 02:42:54,353
watch out for things like

5100
02:42:54,353 --> 02:42:54,652
the two things I just talked

5101
02:42:54,652 --> 02:42:55,870
about.

5102
02:42:55,870 --> 02:42:55,821
>> Thank you.

5103
02:42:55,821 --> 02:42:58,758
Thank you Hector If you can

5104
02:42:58,758 --> 02:42:59,626
please unmute.

5105
02:42:59,626 --> 02:43:00,292
>> Thanks for taking my call.

5106
02:43:00,292 --> 02:43:00,693
I know something about this

5107
02:43:00,693 --> 02:43:02,693
water thing.

5108
02:43:03,696 --> 02:43:03,996
I've been following the lake

5109
02:43:03,996 --> 02:43:04,663
thing.

5110
02:43:04,663 --> 02:43:05,264
There's a lake website that

5111
02:43:05,264 --> 02:43:07,833
does all the lakes in

5112
02:43:07,833 --> 02:43:08,701
California reservoirs and

5113
02:43:08,701 --> 02:43:12,901
the state and I sit in a

5114
02:43:13,239 --> 02:43:14,600
country Lake Mead is at the all

5115
02:43:14,600 --> 02:43:17,606
time lowest level right now and

5116
02:43:18,177 --> 02:43:18,878
there's no snowpack in the in

5117
02:43:18,878 --> 02:43:21,878
the Rocky Mountains this year

5118
02:43:22,810 --> 02:43:22,748
It's very low and they're not

5119
02:43:22,748 --> 02:43:25,148
like they're releasing water

5120
02:43:26,451 --> 02:43:27,420
from Lake Powell into Lake Mead

5121
02:43:27,420 --> 02:43:31,200
And they're also Las Vegas is

5122
02:43:31,230 --> 02:43:31,724
on the third intake.

5123
02:43:31,724 --> 02:43:34,724
They've already done two that

5124
02:43:35,828 --> 02:43:36,495
went below the intake level and

5125
02:43:36,495 --> 02:43:37,296
they're on their third one.

5126
02:43:37,296 --> 02:43:40,800
They made a one about ten years

5127
02:43:40,800 --> 02:43:41,601
ago down really low and Arizona

5128
02:43:41,601 --> 02:43:42,335
was getting a lot of water too.

5129
02:43:42,335 --> 02:43:45,471
So they're talking I don't know

5130
02:43:45,471 --> 02:43:46,238
if they're talking Deadpool If

5131
02:43:46,238 --> 02:43:49,838
Lake Mead goes Deadpool, we got

5132
02:43:51,243 --> 02:43:51,944
a problem that and I don't know

5133
02:43:51,944 --> 02:43:52,811
if we can handle it but one

5134
02:43:52,811 --> 02:43:55,847
thing I worked on a sewer plant

5135
02:43:55,847 --> 02:43:56,448
in Steamboat Springs in 1984 a

5136
02:43:56,448 --> 02:43:58,848
year and a half.

5137
02:43:59,752 --> 02:44:02,152
There are 200 systems from

5138
02:44:03,990 --> 02:44:04,757
Colorado to San Diego that

5139
02:44:04,757 --> 02:44:08,357
treat their water and put it

5140
02:44:08,828 --> 02:44:09,127
back into the in the Napa River

5141
02:44:09,127 --> 02:44:09,996
.

5142
02:44:09,996 --> 02:44:13,320
They put it in the Colorado

5143
02:44:13,320 --> 02:44:13,732
River 200 cities that doing

5144
02:44:13,732 --> 02:44:14,366
what we're doing and they put

5145
02:44:14,366 --> 02:44:17,366
it in the Colorado River.

5146
02:44:18,838 --> 02:44:19,505
So it's affected we do and we

5147
02:44:19,505 --> 02:44:20,306
could do that with the t you

5148
02:44:20,306 --> 02:44:22,308
want to river take all

5149
02:44:22,308 --> 02:44:25,308
the water treated stage five

5150
02:44:27,213 --> 02:44:27,914
and it's worth a fortune and we

5151
02:44:27,914 --> 02:44:28,681
could we could actually have a

5152
02:44:28,681 --> 02:44:32,281
lot of money from five stage

5153
02:44:32,351 --> 02:44:33,119
treatment plant in in your time

5154
02:44:33,119 --> 02:44:36,119
has exploded 8700 if you can

5155
02:44:36,822 --> 02:44:37,457
please unmute and then our

5156
02:44:37,457 --> 02:44:39,857
final speaker is Katherine

5157
02:44:41,360 --> 02:44:42,610
Rhodes It is 700 There you go.

5158
02:44:42,610 --> 02:44:42,527
>> Thank you, Joy.

5159
02:44:42,527 --> 02:44:44,527
It's your turn.

5160
02:44:46,299 --> 02:44:46,833
So this is data driven which is

5161
02:44:46,833 --> 02:44:49,233
always great to me.

5162
02:44:51,304 --> 02:44:51,704
That's our future.

5163
02:44:51,704 --> 02:44:53,704
Love it.

5164
02:44:56,242 --> 02:44:56,542
Every five years seems a good

5165
02:44:56,542 --> 02:44:58,542
time.

5166
02:45:01,781 --> 02:45:02,315
You know that I have very much

5167
02:45:02,315 --> 02:45:02,982
interested in water

5168
02:45:02,982 --> 02:45:05,382
conservation and I've really

5169
02:45:05,452 --> 02:45:06,850
looked at it in these last few

5170
02:45:06,850 --> 02:45:06,486
years so it really affects

5171
02:45:06,486 --> 02:45:08,486
water usage.

5172
02:45:10,990 --> 02:45:11,658
So I'm wondering it's been

5173
02:45:11,658 --> 02:45:12,425
years since our program was

5174
02:45:12,425 --> 02:45:15,962
started or all of you really

5175
02:45:15,962 --> 02:45:18,362
accumulate Can we accumulate

5176
02:45:20,366 --> 02:45:21,167
data on our water usage and we

5177
02:45:21,167 --> 02:45:21,935
can did we for the last five

5178
02:45:21,935 --> 02:45:24,935
years what happened with our

5179
02:45:25,705 --> 02:45:26,339
conservation Because it's a

5180
02:45:26,339 --> 02:45:27,600
lifestyle change which we

5181
02:45:27,600 --> 02:45:30,600
honored and it's a paradigm

5182
02:45:30,510 --> 02:45:31,210
shift with happen to more data

5183
02:45:31,210 --> 02:45:34,210
on water conservation I was

5184
02:45:35,381 --> 02:45:35,948
really surprised but I guess I

5185
02:45:35,948 --> 02:45:38,348
shouldn't be that you

5186
02:45:40,220 --> 02:45:40,987
overestimated the demand and

5187
02:45:40,987 --> 02:45:44,587
that you have improved that you

5188
02:45:45,425 --> 02:45:46,580
said to you know that really is

5189
02:45:46,580 --> 02:45:49,580
going to affect the water

5190
02:45:49,996 --> 02:45:50,664
shortage data So I just want

5191
02:45:50,664 --> 02:45:54,264
this data to be as as

5192
02:45:54,267 --> 02:45:55,350
quantifiably excellent as we

5193
02:45:55,350 --> 02:45:58,350
can love the water shortage

5194
02:45:58,938 --> 02:45:59,306
contingency plan.

5195
02:45:59,306 --> 02:46:00,173
Thank you.

5196
02:46:00,173 --> 02:46:00,774
We're going to have such a big

5197
02:46:00,774 --> 02:46:02,774
reduction eventually in

5198
02:46:05,111 --> 02:46:05,712
imported water with the a will

5199
02:46:05,712 --> 02:46:08,281
they inflate the cost of

5200
02:46:08,281 --> 02:46:08,915
imported water thereby

5201
02:46:08,915 --> 02:46:09,549
impacting water rates and

5202
02:46:09,549 --> 02:46:11,949
reducing our savings from

5203
02:46:13,786 --> 02:46:14,287
the pure water plan.

5204
02:46:14,287 --> 02:46:16,287
So thank you.

5205
02:46:18,580 --> 02:46:18,525
That does conclude your time.

5206
02:46:18,525 --> 02:46:19,159
>> Thank you.

5207
02:46:19,159 --> 02:46:19,492
Katherine Rhodes or final

5208
02:46:19,492 --> 02:46:19,960
speaker.

5209
02:46:19,960 --> 02:46:21,960
Please proceed.

5210
02:46:23,163 --> 02:46:23,697
Hi, this is Katherine Rhodes

5211
02:46:23,697 --> 02:46:24,364
and civil engineer.

5212
02:46:24,364 --> 02:46:28,680
I hate to see the San Diego

5213
02:46:28,680 --> 02:46:28,767
River water go all the way down

5214
02:46:28,767 --> 02:46:29,690
without capturing anybody any

5215
02:46:29,690 --> 02:46:31,690
of it.

5216
02:46:33,406 --> 02:46:34,740
So my plan is called as part of

5217
02:46:34,740 --> 02:46:34,875
a full title and reclamation

5218
02:46:34,875 --> 02:46:38,278
that could be actually used at

5219
02:46:38,278 --> 02:46:39,146
Midway Rising And what it's

5220
02:46:39,146 --> 02:46:42,549
called is still apply a plan

5221
02:46:42,549 --> 02:46:43,216
for continuation of the 19

5222
02:46:43,216 --> 02:46:45,616
eight and 1926 Snowline Plan

5223
02:46:46,860 --> 02:46:46,820
which established Lindbergh

5224
02:46:46,820 --> 02:46:50,420
Field butts off of the airport

5225
02:46:50,557 --> 02:46:51,158
Pacific Highway Harbert Drive

5226
02:46:51,158 --> 02:46:51,991
and the Midway area.

5227
02:46:51,991 --> 02:46:54,991
So the Plata plan will

5228
02:46:55,862 --> 02:46:58,862
futureproof for a full state

5229
02:47:00,700 --> 02:47:01,401
public trust title land

5230
02:47:01,401 --> 02:47:02,350
reclamation project by taking

5231
02:47:02,350 --> 02:47:05,350
out the hydraulic field So

5232
02:47:05,505 --> 02:47:06,139
foundations are now in

5233
02:47:06,139 --> 02:47:06,840
subterranean land and they

5234
02:47:06,840 --> 02:47:09,840
could be founded on competent

5235
02:47:11,144 --> 02:47:11,578
soils not subject to flooding

5236
02:47:11,578 --> 02:47:11,878
or sea level.

5237
02:47:11,878 --> 02:47:13,878
Right?

5238
02:47:14,481 --> 02:47:15,247
So the pilot project for that

5239
02:47:15,247 --> 02:47:15,949
is already done which is

5240
02:47:15,949 --> 02:47:16,550
the Navy Broadway complex and

5241
02:47:16,550 --> 02:47:19,550
then also the systems at

5242
02:47:20,320 --> 02:47:21,355
the airport.

5243
02:47:21,355 --> 02:47:22,222
And so what I want you to do is

5244
02:47:22,222 --> 02:47:24,791
actually look at my a plan for

5245
02:47:24,791 --> 02:47:25,526
full type of reclamation

5246
02:47:25,526 --> 02:47:28,526
especially under the project at

5247
02:47:30,197 --> 02:47:30,897
Midway Rising because right now

5248
02:47:30,897 --> 02:47:34,497
water comes up during the king

5249
02:47:34,668 --> 02:47:35,435
tides and in that area And so

5250
02:47:35,435 --> 02:47:39,350
you you do have to futureproof

5251
02:47:39,873 --> 02:47:40,607
and your plan right now is to

5252
02:47:40,607 --> 02:47:43,143
put in five feet of additional

5253
02:47:43,143 --> 02:47:43,810
fill and then like a two foot

5254
02:47:43,810 --> 02:47:46,810
mat foundation which is not

5255
02:47:47,581 --> 02:47:48,115
proper engineering wise and

5256
02:47:48,115 --> 02:47:48,682
would be subject to

5257
02:47:48,682 --> 02:47:50,682
catastrophic failure.

5258
02:47:53,200 --> 02:47:53,687
So please look at my my and

5259
02:47:53,687 --> 02:47:54,530
apply to plan for structural

5260
02:47:54,530 --> 02:47:54,421
integrity.

5261
02:47:54,421 --> 02:47:54,788
Thank you.

5262
02:47:54,788 --> 02:47:56,788
Thank you.

5263
02:47:56,823 --> 02:47:57,257
That concludes with a comment

5264
02:47:57,257 --> 02:47:57,724
on this item.

5265
02:47:57,724 --> 02:47:58,458
>> All right.

5266
02:47:58,458 --> 02:48:01,762
Thank you, city Clerk And with

5267
02:48:01,762 --> 02:48:02,396
that we will turn it over to

5268
02:48:02,396 --> 02:48:03,130
the council for questions.

5269
02:48:03,130 --> 02:48:03,831
Comments Entertain a motion and

5270
02:48:03,831 --> 02:48:06,766
we'll start with the Chair of

5271
02:48:06,766 --> 02:48:07,401
the Environment Committee,

5272
02:48:07,401 --> 02:48:07,868
council member Eli Rivera.

5273
02:48:07,868 --> 02:48:08,535
>> All right.

5274
02:48:08,535 --> 02:48:10,935
Thank you, council PRESIDENT

5275
02:48:11,438 --> 02:48:11,738
And thanks for all the work on

5276
02:48:11,738 --> 02:48:12,639
this.

5277
02:48:12,639 --> 02:48:15,943
I know a lot of effort went

5278
02:48:15,943 --> 02:48:16,810
into it.

5279
02:48:16,810 --> 02:48:19,346
I don't want to get too far

5280
02:48:19,346 --> 02:48:24,146
into it but I do think that at

5281
02:48:24,184 --> 02:48:27,184
times the conflation of more

5282
02:48:29,390 --> 02:48:32,390
people meaning um we actually

5283
02:48:33,427 --> 02:48:34,328
hear it in a variety of forums

5284
02:48:34,328 --> 02:48:37,328
that more people means higher

5285
02:48:38,666 --> 02:48:39,433
water bills and more strain on

5286
02:48:39,433 --> 02:48:42,433
our system We've planned for

5287
02:48:43,503 --> 02:48:44,138
the population to grow correct

5288
02:48:44,138 --> 02:48:44,871
And everything that we're

5289
02:48:44,871 --> 02:48:48,471
mapping out is based on that

5290
02:48:51,177 --> 02:48:51,579
population and growth, correct?

5291
02:48:51,579 --> 02:48:52,246
>> Yes.

5292
02:48:52,246 --> 02:48:55,846
And again this isn't the you

5293
02:48:56,150 --> 02:48:56,917
all don't do rates but if there

5294
02:48:56,917 --> 02:49:00,517
are fewer people the rates are

5295
02:49:00,788 --> 02:49:01,522
higher because we have a

5296
02:49:01,522 --> 02:49:02,189
certain amount of water that we

5297
02:49:02,189 --> 02:49:02,889
are getting because we were

5298
02:49:02,889 --> 02:49:05,526
planning for a certain number

5299
02:49:05,526 --> 02:49:05,892
of people to move here to be

5300
02:49:05,892 --> 02:49:07,892
born here.

5301
02:49:10,664 --> 02:49:11,365
i just every time we get a

5302
02:49:11,365 --> 02:49:12,660
chance to repeat some of these

5303
02:49:12,660 --> 02:49:14,668
things I think it's important

5304
02:49:14,668 --> 02:49:15,635
to do so.

5305
02:49:15,635 --> 02:49:16,337
All that being said, I think I

5306
02:49:16,337 --> 02:49:17,370
appreciate all the effort and

5307
02:49:17,370 --> 02:49:19,106
planning that goes into this.

5308
02:49:19,106 --> 02:49:19,840
This is the you know, the not

5309
02:49:19,840 --> 02:49:20,573
so glamorous work that's really

5310
02:49:20,573 --> 02:49:24,173
important to make sure that San

5311
02:49:24,345 --> 02:49:25,246
Diegans do have the water that

5312
02:49:25,246 --> 02:49:28,749
we need that we do have a plan

5313
02:49:28,749 --> 02:49:29,350
in case there are there are

5314
02:49:29,350 --> 02:49:30,170
shortages in the future.

5315
02:49:30,170 --> 02:49:30,317
So thank you for doing that

5316
02:49:30,317 --> 02:49:32,317
work.

5317
02:49:33,220 --> 02:49:33,955
I very much appreciate it And I

5318
02:49:33,955 --> 02:49:34,422
will move approval of the staff

5319
02:49:34,422 --> 02:49:35,156
recommendation.

5320
02:49:35,156 --> 02:49:35,456
Thank you Council PRESIDENT All

5321
02:49:35,456 --> 02:49:35,823
right.

5322
02:49:35,823 --> 02:49:37,823
Thank you.

5323
02:49:37,958 --> 02:49:38,926
Council members.

5324
02:49:38,926 --> 02:49:39,560
So we have a motion by council

5325
02:49:39,560 --> 02:49:42,560
member Eli Rivera to move

5326
02:49:43,698 --> 02:49:44,197
the staff recommendation not

5327
02:49:44,197 --> 02:49:44,965
see anybody else.

5328
02:49:44,965 --> 02:49:45,499
I'd like to make the second as

5329
02:49:45,499 --> 02:49:46,200
the other member of

5330
02:49:46,200 --> 02:49:48,600
the Environment Committee for

5331
02:49:50,504 --> 02:49:51,205
that day And as my colleague

5332
02:49:51,205 --> 02:49:54,805
said, we did hear this in

5333
02:49:54,809 --> 02:49:55,609
the Environment Committee there

5334
02:49:55,609 --> 02:49:56,543
was a good robust conversation.

5335
02:49:56,543 --> 02:50:00,247
So again I want to thank public

5336
02:50:00,247 --> 02:50:00,948
utilities for the data driven

5337
02:50:00,948 --> 02:50:03,348
approach Update using updated

5338
02:50:04,518 --> 02:50:05,119
data from sandag and really

5339
02:50:05,119 --> 02:50:05,720
actually getting down to

5340
02:50:05,720 --> 02:50:08,720
the parcel level in this

5341
02:50:09,590 --> 02:50:10,258
conversation and as my

5342
02:50:10,258 --> 02:50:10,891
colleague referenced I want

5343
02:50:10,891 --> 02:50:13,291
acknowledge to graphs and

5344
02:50:14,729 --> 02:50:15,363
charts that you presented on

5345
02:50:15,363 --> 02:50:15,929
Slide six you highlighted

5346
02:50:15,929 --> 02:50:18,329
the historic water use

5347
02:50:19,533 --> 02:50:20,167
decreasing over the past 25

5348
02:50:20,167 --> 02:50:20,835
years And what is equally

5349
02:50:20,835 --> 02:50:23,835
significant is that we have

5350
02:50:24,505 --> 02:50:25,239
continue to do that despite

5351
02:50:25,239 --> 02:50:28,239
rising projections in the prior

5352
02:50:28,608 --> 02:50:29,509
urban water management plan.

5353
02:50:29,509 --> 02:50:30,344
So I think we're really zeroing

5354
02:50:30,344 --> 02:50:33,648
in on the appropriate level of

5355
02:50:33,648 --> 02:50:34,348
projections but a realistic one

5356
02:50:34,348 --> 02:50:34,816
that we can actually do a

5357
02:50:34,816 --> 02:50:36,816
management plan.

5358
02:50:38,319 --> 02:50:38,986
I think there was some

5359
02:50:38,986 --> 02:50:39,620
conversations about projects

5360
02:50:39,620 --> 02:50:39,921
but that's not really for

5361
02:50:39,921 --> 02:50:41,921
today.

5362
02:50:43,324 --> 02:50:44,240
Well Will be another time for

5363
02:50:44,240 --> 02:50:47,240
that and the level projections

5364
02:50:47,695 --> 02:50:48,396
in the 25 2025 plan makes

5365
02:50:48,396 --> 02:50:51,396
perfect sense and are apparent

5366
02:50:51,599 --> 02:50:52,200
in the chart You have on Slide

5367
02:50:52,200 --> 02:50:52,867
eight showing an entire

5368
02:50:52,867 --> 02:50:54,867
reversal from predominantly

5369
02:50:56,670 --> 02:50:57,138
imported water to local supply

5370
02:50:57,138 --> 02:50:57,839
via pure water.

5371
02:50:57,839 --> 02:51:00,239
That's an accomplishment that

5372
02:51:02,209 --> 02:51:02,910
we're all aware on our way to

5373
02:51:02,910 --> 02:51:03,611
achieving and I appreciate you

5374
02:51:03,611 --> 02:51:05,611
highlighting that achievement.

5375
02:51:07,480 --> 02:51:07,715
So again thank you for the very

5376
02:51:07,715 --> 02:51:08,449
good work Every five years

5377
02:51:08,449 --> 02:51:12,860
maybe isn't too bad that the is

5378
02:51:12,860 --> 02:51:12,854
playing I know it's still a lot

5379
02:51:12,854 --> 02:51:13,487
of work and that you just don't

5380
02:51:13,487 --> 02:51:15,590
roll over what you had and

5381
02:51:15,590 --> 02:51:16,424
polish it up but you actually

5382
02:51:16,424 --> 02:51:17,910
dove deep and really updated

5383
02:51:17,910 --> 02:51:17,859
the data So that's a lot of

5384
02:51:17,859 --> 02:51:20,859
extra work and we're very

5385
02:51:20,861 --> 02:51:21,629
grateful for that.

5386
02:51:21,629 --> 02:51:25,229
So with that not see anybody

5387
02:51:25,967 --> 02:51:26,634
else in the light we have a

5388
02:51:26,634 --> 02:51:27,334
motion by council member Eli

5389
02:51:27,334 --> 02:51:30,171
Rivera and a second by myself

5390
02:51:30,171 --> 02:51:30,639
to move the staff

5391
02:51:30,639 --> 02:51:31,406

Please cast your vote and that

5395
02:51:39,881 --> 02:51:40,581

5427
02:52:30,899 --> 02:52:31,399
12 minutes or so I would say

5428
02:52:31,399 --> 02:52:31,766

5429
02:52:31,766 --> 02:52:33,766

5445
02:52:58,627 --> 02:52:59,427
The item before you today is

5446
02:52:59,427 --> 02:53:03,465
the work of many years of hard

5447
02:53:03,465 --> 02:53:04,165
work of ecp staff working in

5448
02:53:04,165 --> 02:53:04,599
collaboration with staff from

02:53:04,599 --> 02:53:06,599
Parks and Rec.

5450
02:53:08,436 --> 02:53:09,370
We've also been working with

5451
02:53:09,370 --> 02:53:09,638
key departments such as

5452
02:53:09,638 --> 02:53:10,371
the Planning Department.

5453
02:53:10,371 --> 02:53:13,608
The item before you today would

5454
02:53:13,608 --> 02:53:14,242
be to approve the Mission Bay

5455
02:53:14,242 --> 02:53:14,843
Park Improvement Plan and

5456
02:53:14,843 --> 02:53:16,843
Implementing framework.

5457
02:53:18,814 --> 02:53:19,481
We would like to acknowledge

5458
02:53:19,481 --> 02:53:22,481
our consultant Dudek who is

5459
02:53:23,351 --> 02:53:24,520
with us here today.

5460
02:53:24,520 --> 02:53:24,619
They provided the technical

5461
02:53:24,619 --> 02:53:25,286
studies, the analysis,

5462
02:53:25,286 --> 02:53:27,286
the preliminary engineering

5463
02:53:28,456 --> 02:53:29,157
reports.

5464
02:53:29,157 --> 02:53:29,891
They also supported us during

5465
02:53:29,891 --> 02:53:30,225
the public outreach during this

5466
02:53:30,225 --> 02:53:32,225
effort.

5467
02:53:33,128 --> 02:53:33,729
During this time we'd also like

5468
02:53:33,729 --> 02:53:36,729
to thank the members of

5469
02:53:37,598 --> 02:53:38,100
the public and the outside

5470
02:53:38,100 --> 02:53:38,633
agencies, outside

5471
02:53:38,633 --> 02:53:40,633
organizations, other

5472
02:53:42,871 --> 02:53:43,539
stakeholders that provided very

5473
02:53:43,539 --> 02:53:44,139
important feedback and input

5474
02:53:44,139 --> 02:53:46,139
throughout this process.

5475
02:53:47,542 --> 02:53:50,542
This information was used to

5476
02:53:51,613 --> 02:53:52,247
help shape these projects and

5477
02:53:52,247 --> 02:53:52,948
the program alternatives.

5478
02:53:52,948 --> 02:53:56,951
While this might be the end of

5479
02:53:56,951 --> 02:53:57,652
this process in terms of

5480
02:53:57,652 --> 02:53:58,286
the secret process, it's also

5481
02:53:58,286 --> 02:54:01,286
the beginning of the next

5482
02:54:01,757 --> 02:54:02,391
process which would be how to

5483
02:54:02,391 --> 02:54:02,991
implement these important

5484
02:54:02,991 --> 02:54:03,691
projects in Mission Bay.

5485
02:54:03,691 --> 02:54:04,626
And with that I would like to

5486
02:54:04,626 --> 02:54:08,226
turn it over to Nancy Graham.

5487
02:54:09,598 --> 02:54:10,198
Thank you.

5488
02:54:10,198 --> 02:54:10,798
>> Thank you, Carrie.

5489
02:54:10,798 --> 02:54:11,299
Again, I'm Nancy Graham,

5490
02:54:11,299 --> 02:54:11,967
program manager in

5491
02:54:11,967 --> 02:54:13,602
the Engineering and Capital

5492
02:54:13,602 --> 02:54:14,269
Projects Department.

5493
02:54:14,269 --> 02:54:14,937
>> The overview of our

5494
02:54:14,937 --> 02:54:17,337
presentation will go through

5495
02:54:18,840 --> 02:54:19,474
some project history our

5496
02:54:19,474 --> 02:54:20,209
implementation framework,

5497
02:54:20,209 --> 02:54:22,609
the Environmental Impact report

5498
02:54:23,211 --> 02:54:23,511
and the actions before you

5499
02:54:23,511 --> 02:54:25,511
today.

5500
02:54:26,615 --> 02:54:27,316
So for some context and

5501
02:54:27,316 --> 02:54:29,716
Proposition c in 2008 and

5502
02:54:30,819 --> 02:54:31,520
Measure j in 2016 significantly

5503
02:54:31,520 --> 02:54:32,200
changed how funding works for

5504
02:54:32,200 --> 02:54:34,200
Mission Bay Park.

5505
02:54:36,240 --> 02:54:36,691
It created the Mission Bay Park

5506
02:54:36,691 --> 02:54:37,392
Improvement Zone as well as

5507
02:54:37,392 --> 02:54:40,392
the Mission Bay Park Oversight

5508
02:54:40,729 --> 02:54:41,496
Committee and Fund.

5509
02:54:41,496 --> 02:54:44,496
The fund itself dedicates lease

5510
02:54:45,933 --> 02:54:46,601
revenue and directs it towards

5511
02:54:46,601 --> 02:54:48,601
capital improvement projects

5512
02:54:50,309 --> 02:54:50,973
within those measures also

5513
02:54:50,973 --> 02:54:51,507
identified priority projects

5514
02:54:51,507 --> 02:54:53,507
within the charter.

5515
02:54:55,744 --> 02:54:56,411
So the priorities in

5516
02:54:56,411 --> 02:54:57,120
the charter include wetland

5517
02:54:57,120 --> 02:54:59,120
expansion, water quality

5518
02:55:00,249 --> 02:55:00,916
improvements and protection and

5519
02:55:00,916 --> 02:55:03,316
expansion of eelgrass beds,

5520
02:55:04,987 --> 02:55:05,688
shoreline restoration expansion

5521
02:55:05,688 --> 02:55:06,355
of endangered or threatened

5522
02:55:06,355 --> 02:55:08,755
species preserves and upland

5523
02:55:10,910 --> 02:55:10,625
habitats, deferred maintenance

5524
02:55:10,625 --> 02:55:12,625
projects addressing

5525
02:55:15,970 --> 02:55:15,797
deficiencies in the bicycle and

5526
02:55:15,797 --> 02:55:16,498
pedestrian circulation network

5527
02:55:16,498 --> 02:55:19,498
and also restoring the seawall

5528
02:55:22,705 --> 02:55:23,472
Bulkhead within Mission Beach.

5529
02:55:23,472 --> 02:55:24,239
>> So the charter laid out all

5530
02:55:24,239 --> 02:55:27,839
of these priorities but we were

5531
02:55:27,943 --> 02:55:28,677
tasked with turning this into a

5532
02:55:28,677 --> 02:55:29,780
program in order for them to be

5533
02:55:29,780 --> 02:55:31,780
implemented.

5534
02:55:32,147 --> 02:55:32,748
So to do that we did a signifi

5535
02:55:32,748 --> 02:55:33,115
can amount of community

5536
02:55:33,115 --> 02:55:33,782
outreach.

5537
02:55:33,782 --> 02:55:36,782
We did baseline studies When

5538
02:55:37,886 --> 02:55:38,587
you have the task to to improve

5539
02:55:38,587 --> 02:55:39,355
water quality but we had to

5540
02:55:39,355 --> 02:55:42,691
study both what are the water

5541
02:55:42,691 --> 02:55:43,392
quality issues as well as

5542
02:55:43,392 --> 02:55:45,792
the engineering solutions that

5543
02:55:47,463 --> 02:55:47,896
could be developed to improve

5544
02:55:47,896 --> 02:55:48,697
water quality.

5545
02:55:48,697 --> 02:55:49,331
So all of this work was done

5546
02:55:49,331 --> 02:55:51,331
collaboratively with

5547
02:55:52,901 --> 02:55:53,636
the community where we reported

5548
02:55:53,636 --> 02:55:54,300
our study results and they were

5549
02:55:54,300 --> 02:55:56,300
presented.

5550
02:55:57,506 --> 02:55:58,400
We worked with stakeholders to

5551
02:55:58,400 --> 02:55:58,607
develop and luminary

5552
02:55:58,607 --> 02:56:00,607
engineering reports or

5553
02:56:02,444 --> 02:56:03,112
the papers that were used as

5554
02:56:03,112 --> 02:56:03,846
the basis for this project.

5555
02:56:03,846 --> 02:56:07,115
We had a public scoping meeting

5556
02:56:07,115 --> 02:56:07,917
for our environmental impact

5557
02:56:07,917 --> 02:56:08,517
report and all along the way

5558
02:56:08,517 --> 02:56:09,218
we've been working with

5559
02:56:09,218 --> 02:56:12,218
the Mission Bay Park Committee

5560
02:56:12,688 --> 02:56:13,422
and we got a vote in favor of

5561
02:56:13,422 --> 02:56:14,156
program approval this month I'm

5562
02:56:14,156 --> 02:56:17,756
sorry last month and it was

5563
02:56:18,600 --> 02:56:18,894
unanimous with one abstention.

5564
02:56:18,894 --> 02:56:21,894
>> So this program began all

5565
02:56:22,598 --> 02:56:23,265
the way back in 2018 and we've

5566
02:56:23,265 --> 02:56:26,265
been working through each of

5567
02:56:27,335 --> 02:56:27,970
the steps from our scoping of

5568
02:56:27,970 --> 02:56:28,671
the projects We developed

5569
02:56:28,671 --> 02:56:30,671
the implementation framework,

5570
02:56:32,408 --> 02:56:33,109
we put the draft air out last

5571
02:56:33,109 --> 02:56:36,109
fall and then we presented

5572
02:56:37,446 --> 02:56:38,147
the final year and it's been

5573
02:56:38,147 --> 02:56:38,848
posted on our website now and

5574
02:56:38,848 --> 02:56:41,848
we're here bringing it forward

5575
02:56:42,840 --> 02:56:42,952
for you for adoption.

5576
02:56:42,952 --> 02:56:46,455
So the program itself has some

5577
02:56:46,455 --> 02:56:47,123
core elements.

5578
02:56:47,123 --> 02:56:47,790
>> Those include wetland and

5579
02:56:47,790 --> 02:56:49,790
water quality improvements,

5580
02:56:51,727 --> 02:56:52,361
shoreline restoration, upland

5581
02:56:52,361 --> 02:56:53,290
habitat expansion, seawall

5582
02:56:53,290 --> 02:56:56,290
restoration and bike and pet

5583
02:56:56,399 --> 02:56:57,660
improvements All of these

5584
02:56:57,660 --> 02:57:00,660
within the Mission Bay Park

5585
02:57:01,370 --> 02:57:01,871
improvement zone.

5586
02:57:01,871 --> 02:57:04,871
So our wetland projects those

5587
02:57:05,674 --> 02:57:06,375
include Technology Creek and

5588
02:57:06,375 --> 02:57:06,975
Fiesta Island Causeway, North

5589
02:57:06,975 --> 02:57:09,375
Vista Island creating a

5590
02:57:11,470 --> 02:57:11,814
significant new wetland piece

5591
02:57:11,814 --> 02:57:13,249
on the north side as well as

5592
02:57:13,249 --> 02:57:15,649
restoration of the Kootenay

5593
02:57:18,254 --> 02:57:18,960
Creek Wetlands.

5594
02:57:18,960 --> 02:57:19,655
Shoreline restoration happens

5595
02:57:19,655 --> 02:57:22,655
primarily in the western side

5596
02:57:23,292 --> 02:57:23,960
of Mission Bay and it includes

5597
02:57:23,960 --> 02:57:24,594
both structured solutions as

5598
02:57:24,594 --> 02:57:27,594
well as more nature based

5599
02:57:28,664 --> 02:57:29,365
solutions like oyster reef in

5600
02:57:29,365 --> 02:57:32,365
order to protect the different

5601
02:57:35,438 --> 02:57:36,205
beach areas.

5602
02:57:36,205 --> 02:57:36,972
>> Our upland habitat expansion

5603
02:57:36,972 --> 02:57:40,572
occurs in North and South Vista

5604
02:57:40,576 --> 02:57:41,310
Island and that includes

5605
02:57:41,310 --> 02:57:43,646
the dedicated least turned site

5606
02:57:43,646 --> 02:57:44,447
South Shores The Triangle

5607
02:57:44,447 --> 02:57:46,847
Parcel as well as

5608
02:57:49,510 --> 02:57:49,752
the Cloverleaf Parcel Bicycle

5609
02:57:49,752 --> 02:57:52,152
improvements include the Ocean

5610
02:57:54,890 --> 02:57:54,958
beach bike path, the Rose Creek

5611
02:57:54,958 --> 02:57:58,558
bike path and the Fiesta Island

5612
02:57:58,561 --> 02:57:59,228
Causeway and seawall

5613
02:57:59,228 --> 02:58:01,628
restoration and would happen

5614
02:58:03,600 --> 02:58:04,300
between Grand Avenue to Ventura

5615
02:58:04,300 --> 02:58:04,867
Place as well as San Fernando

5616
02:58:04,867 --> 02:58:07,267
Place to Balboa Court.

5617
02:58:08,471 --> 02:58:09,205
And that includes a new segment

5618
02:58:09,205 --> 02:58:12,205
between Grand Avenue and Thomas

5619
02:58:13,309 --> 02:58:13,943
Avenue upgraded beach access

5620
02:58:13,943 --> 02:58:16,343
points and also replacing

5621
02:58:19,140 --> 02:58:21,140
the deteriorated parapet.

5622
02:58:22,585 --> 02:58:23,186
To be clear, Danza Cove is not

5623
02:58:23,186 --> 02:58:23,953
part of this program.

5624
02:58:23,953 --> 02:58:24,654
It was originally part of this

5625
02:58:24,654 --> 02:58:27,654
project but it was identified

5626
02:58:27,957 --> 02:58:28,625
that we had a land use plan

5627
02:58:28,625 --> 02:58:31,625
amendment to the mission Bay

5628
02:58:32,595 --> 02:58:33,229
Park plan needed to be

5629
02:58:33,229 --> 02:58:33,830
completed and so that was

5630
02:58:33,830 --> 02:58:36,230
transferred to the City

5631
02:58:37,566 --> 02:58:38,100
planning Department and became

5632
02:58:38,100 --> 02:58:38,835
Diane's and Natural.

5633
02:58:38,835 --> 02:58:41,835
That project is currently under

5634
02:58:41,971 --> 02:58:42,372
review by the Coastal

5635
02:58:42,372 --> 02:58:43,720
Commission.

5636
02:58:43,720 --> 02:58:43,406
Our project does not require a

5637
02:58:43,406 --> 02:58:45,406
mission.

5638
02:58:46,843 --> 02:58:47,477
Bay Park master Plan amendment

5639
02:58:47,477 --> 02:58:48,111
so therefore that will not

5640
02:58:48,111 --> 02:58:48,478
require Coastal Commission

5641
02:58:48,478 --> 02:58:50,478
approval.

5642
02:58:52,150 --> 02:58:52,716
What you are seeing today

5643
02:58:52,716 --> 02:58:55,116
though individual permits will

5644
02:58:56,190 --> 02:58:56,786
go to them in the future.

5645
02:58:56,786 --> 02:58:59,786
Diaz itself is working towards

5646
02:59:01,124 --> 02:59:01,891
a general development plan.

5647
02:59:01,891 --> 02:59:02,625
Yeah our program focus on that

5648
02:59:02,625 --> 02:59:02,992
on the implementation framework

5649
02:59:02,992 --> 02:59:04,992
document.

5650
02:59:06,463 --> 02:59:07,163
This document establishes how

5651
02:59:07,163 --> 02:59:07,831
to implement the charter as an

5652
02:59:07,831 --> 02:59:08,298
interim step to funding and

5653
02:59:08,298 --> 02:59:10,298
prioritization.

5654
02:59:11,501 --> 02:59:12,135
It identifies the approach for

5655
02:59:12,135 --> 02:59:14,135
implementing the project's

5656
02:59:15,538 --> 02:59:16,239
maintenance needs as well as

5657
02:59:16,239 --> 02:59:16,906
resilience to sea level rise.

5658
02:59:16,906 --> 02:59:17,540
It lays out the applicable

5659
02:59:17,540 --> 02:59:19,540
engineering and permitting

5660
02:59:20,976 --> 02:59:21,311
procedures to realize each

5661
02:59:21,311 --> 02:59:21,878
project.

5662
02:59:21,878 --> 02:59:23,878
>> The document itself

5663
02:59:25,381 --> 02:59:26,820
consolidates the various

5664
02:59:26,820 --> 02:59:26,550
elements and components into a

5665
02:59:26,550 --> 02:59:28,550
single document.

5666
02:59:30,252 --> 02:59:30,887
It's a tool for city engineers

5667
02:59:30,887 --> 02:59:31,287
and planners to implement

5668
02:59:31,287 --> 02:59:32,210
the program.

5669
02:59:32,210 --> 02:59:35,210
It's intended to be transparent

5670
02:59:35,158 --> 02:59:35,758
and digestible to the public

5671
02:59:35,758 --> 02:59:36,459
and it supports funding

5672
02:59:36,459 --> 02:59:38,859
decisions for prioritizing and

5673
02:59:39,462 --> 02:59:40,230
implementing the charter.

5674
02:59:40,230 --> 02:59:40,897
And it's the basis of our

5675
02:59:40,897 --> 02:59:42,897
environmental impact report.

5676
02:59:44,534 --> 02:59:45,235
The environmental impact report

5677
02:59:45,235 --> 02:59:48,235
is required per the California

5678
02:59:49,206 --> 02:59:49,940
Environmental Quality Act and

5679
02:59:49,940 --> 02:59:50,607
informs the public and decision

5680
02:59:50,607 --> 02:59:53,700
makers of potential adverse

5681
02:59:53,810 --> 02:59:54,210
effects of implementation of

5682
02:59:54,210 --> 02:59:54,744
our program.

5683
02:59:54,744 --> 02:59:56,744
It affords mandated

5684
02:59:58,581 --> 02:59:59,249
opportunities for public input

5685
02:59:59,249 --> 02:59:59,983
and it identifies required

5686
02:59:59,983 --> 03:00:02,383
feasible mitigation measures to

5687
03:00:03,820 --> 03:00:04,221
reduce the effects as well as

5688
03:00:04,221 --> 03:00:04,854
alternative.

5689
03:00:04,854 --> 03:00:07,254
But particularly a program

5690
03:00:08,458 --> 03:00:09,159
document allows the engineering

5691
03:00:09,159 --> 03:00:09,860
Capital Projects Department to

5692
03:00:09,860 --> 03:00:13,460
be able to fulfill the desire

5693
03:00:13,496 --> 03:00:14,198
to streamline capital

5694
03:00:14,198 --> 03:00:14,731
improvement projects and bring

5695
03:00:14,731 --> 03:00:16,731
them online faster.

5696
03:00:18,680 --> 03:00:18,769
Because this document will

5697
03:00:18,769 --> 03:00:19,535
establish a basis for tearing.

5698
03:00:19,535 --> 03:00:22,673
So when each of these projects

5699
03:00:22,673 --> 03:00:23,440
moves forward in the future

5700
03:00:23,440 --> 03:00:23,974
will be able to adopt them more

5701
03:00:23,974 --> 03:00:25,974
quickly and easily.

5702
03:00:27,844 --> 03:00:28,478
>> The program Air identifies

5703
03:00:28,478 --> 03:00:30,478
any potential significant

5704
03:00:32,782 --> 03:00:33,316
impacts and required mitigation

5705
03:00:33,316 --> 03:00:33,750
as well as feasible

5706
03:00:33,750 --> 03:00:34,384
alternatives.

5707
03:00:34,384 --> 03:00:36,784
In addition, we developed

5708
03:00:37,754 --> 03:00:38,421
conceptual habitat restoration

5709
03:00:38,421 --> 03:00:41,421
and monitoring plans for all

5710
03:00:42,590 --> 03:00:42,592
the restoration projects and

5711
03:00:42,592 --> 03:00:44,592
the document itself.

5712
03:00:47,164 --> 03:00:47,931
In most resource areas actually

5713
03:00:47,931 --> 03:00:51,434
has no impacts or less than

5714
03:00:51,434 --> 03:00:52,302
significant impacts.

5715
03:00:52,302 --> 03:00:52,870
>> The few areas that we do

5716
03:00:52,870 --> 03:00:55,270
have the potential for

5717
03:00:56,607 --> 03:00:57,307
significant impacts are air

5718
03:00:57,307 --> 03:00:57,975
quality, biological resources,

5719
03:00:57,975 --> 03:00:59,975
cultural resources, historic

5720
03:01:01,945 --> 03:01:02,346
resources, noise and

5721
03:01:02,346 --> 03:01:02,913
recreation.

5722
03:01:02,913 --> 03:01:04,913
Our mitigation reduces

5723
03:01:06,416 --> 03:01:07,151
the effects to less than

5724
03:01:07,151 --> 03:01:07,718
significant for air quality and

5725
03:01:07,718 --> 03:01:09,718
cultural resources for

5726
03:01:11,955 --> 03:01:12,623
biological resources because

5727
03:01:12,623 --> 03:01:15,230
these are complex projects.

5728
03:01:16,693 --> 03:01:17,394
And Sequa says that any impact

5729
03:01:17,394 --> 03:01:18,610
to biological resources if you

5730
03:01:18,610 --> 03:01:21,610
take something off line in

5731
03:01:22,132 --> 03:01:22,733
there potentially as part of

5732
03:01:22,733 --> 03:01:23,467
construction bringing it

5733
03:01:23,467 --> 03:01:24,101
forward there could be a delay.

5734
03:01:24,101 --> 03:01:26,603
So there is potential for

5735
03:01:26,603 --> 03:01:27,337
biological impacts.

5736
03:01:27,337 --> 03:01:27,971
Historic resources is because

5737
03:01:27,971 --> 03:01:30,971
the seawall itself is a

5738
03:01:32,209 --> 03:01:32,843
historic resource so you have

5739
03:01:32,843 --> 03:01:33,410
the potential for impacts.

5740
03:01:33,410 --> 03:01:34,111
So we're following all

5741
03:01:34,111 --> 03:01:36,380
the secretary of the interior

5742
03:01:36,380 --> 03:01:36,981
standards.

5743
03:01:36,981 --> 03:01:37,648
Noise and noise impacts.

5744
03:01:37,648 --> 03:01:38,349
These are large construction

5745
03:01:38,349 --> 03:01:41,349
projects so there is potential

5746
03:01:41,451 --> 03:01:42,319
for noise.

5747
03:01:42,319 --> 03:01:43,200
And because it's a park, any

5748
03:01:43,200 --> 03:01:45,856
impacts within the park would

5749
03:01:45,856 --> 03:01:46,190
be considered a restoration

5750
03:01:46,190 --> 03:01:46,856
impact.

5751
03:01:46,856 --> 03:01:47,591
Oh sorry recreation impact.

5752
03:01:47,591 --> 03:01:50,361
We also looked at project

5753
03:01:50,361 --> 03:01:50,961
alternatives including the No

5754
03:01:50,961 --> 03:01:51,562
project alternative and

5755
03:01:51,562 --> 03:01:53,562
increased public access

5756
03:01:54,932 --> 03:01:55,499
alternative and a reduced

5757
03:01:55,499 --> 03:01:56,320
hardscape alternative.

5758
03:01:56,320 --> 03:01:56,638
The square required

5759
03:01:56,638 --> 03:01:58,638
environmentally superior

5760
03:02:00,437 --> 03:02:01,138
alternative is the reduced

5761
03:02:01,138 --> 03:02:01,839
hardscape alternative because

5762
03:02:01,839 --> 03:02:04,839
it reduces impacts to cultural

5763
03:02:05,276 --> 03:02:05,943
resources near the seawall.

5764
03:02:05,943 --> 03:02:08,943
The actions before you today

5765
03:02:09,680 --> 03:02:10,347
and staff's recommendation is

5766
03:02:10,347 --> 03:02:11,810
to certify the final program

5767
03:02:11,810 --> 03:02:13,481
Environmental Impact report and

5768
03:02:14,852 --> 03:02:15,219
adopt the implementation

5769
03:02:15,219 --> 03:02:15,886
framework.

5770
03:02:15,886 --> 03:02:16,253
And we're available for any

5771
03:02:16,253 --> 03:02:16,620
questions.

5772
03:02:16,620 --> 03:02:18,620
Thank you.

5773
03:02:19,989 --> 03:02:20,624
All right Jim, thank you for

5774
03:02:20,624 --> 03:02:21,125
the work and thank you for

5775
03:02:21,125 --> 03:02:23,125
the presentation.

5776
03:02:23,693 --> 03:02:24,161
Clerk Please proceed with

5777
03:02:24,161 --> 03:02:24,595
public comment.

5778
03:02:24,595 --> 03:02:25,262
>> Thank you.

5779
03:02:25,262 --> 03:02:27,262
Council PRESIDENT Stephanie

5780
03:02:28,732 --> 03:02:29,660
Saathoff If you can please come

5781
03:02:29,660 --> 03:02:29,800
forward.

5782
03:02:29,800 --> 03:02:32,535
And then after that we have

5783
03:02:32,535 --> 03:02:35,535
Blair Beckman will have two

5784
03:02:37,374 --> 03:02:38,309
minutes.

5785
03:02:38,309 --> 03:02:38,943
I promise not to take them all.

5786
03:02:38,943 --> 03:02:39,576
I'm here for Mission Bay

5787
03:02:39,576 --> 03:02:41,576
Lessees Association today.

5788
03:02:42,790 --> 03:02:42,780
We consider ourselves partners

5789
03:02:42,780 --> 03:02:45,780
in stewardship of Mission Bay

5790
03:02:47,118 --> 03:02:47,985
with all of you.

5791
03:02:47,985 --> 03:02:48,385
It is a park for visitors and

5792
03:02:48,385 --> 03:02:50,385
San Diegans.

5793
03:02:52,256 --> 03:02:52,823
In fact, San Diego is are by

5794
03:02:52,823 --> 03:02:55,223
far the biggest users.

5795
03:02:56,327 --> 03:02:57,610
It is the nearest beach or sand

5796
03:02:57,610 --> 03:02:57,595
and water access for recreation

5797
03:02:57,595 --> 03:02:59,995
for most San Diego.

5798
03:03:01,966 --> 03:03:02,700
We participate in our process.

5799
03:03:02,700 --> 03:03:05,636
We encourage you to move ahead

5800
03:03:05,636 --> 03:03:06,303
today with key priorities

5801
03:03:06,303 --> 03:03:06,904
the bike and pedestrian path

5802
03:03:06,904 --> 03:03:08,904
improvements, our safety

5803
03:03:10,841 --> 03:03:11,609
issues, the wayfinding signage

5804
03:03:11,609 --> 03:03:12,143
we are very excited is a long

5805
03:03:12,143 --> 03:03:12,543
overdue and deferred

5806
03:03:12,543 --> 03:03:14,543
maintenance.

5807
03:03:15,979 --> 03:03:16,780
It is a charter priority.

5808
03:03:16,780 --> 03:03:20,380
It is a safety issue Also

5809
03:03:21,118 --> 03:03:21,919
before we add new features that

5810
03:03:21,919 --> 03:03:24,919
we struggle to maintain we

5811
03:03:25,560 --> 03:03:25,489
encourage first taking care of

5812
03:03:25,489 --> 03:03:26,224
what we have.

5813
03:03:26,224 --> 03:03:29,527
So thank you to Nancy Graham

5814
03:03:29,527 --> 03:03:29,927
and the staff for getting us to

5815
03:03:29,927 --> 03:03:30,528
this point.

5816
03:03:30,528 --> 03:03:30,995
We look forward to your

5817
03:03:30,995 --> 03:03:31,662
approval today.

5818
03:03:31,662 --> 03:03:34,765
So all of the mission Bay

5819
03:03:34,765 --> 03:03:35,166
priorities can move forward.

5820
03:03:35,166 --> 03:03:37,166
Thank you.

5821
03:03:44,642 --> 03:03:45,420
Blair Beckman.

5822
03:03:45,420 --> 03:03:45,476
>> Hi.

5823
03:03:45,476 --> 03:03:46,210
We're Beekman.

5824
03:03:46,210 --> 03:03:48,610
I thought Councilperson Prosser

5825
03:03:49,714 --> 03:03:50,281
was here today.

5826
03:03:50,281 --> 03:03:50,847
Seems like he isn't.

5827
03:03:50,847 --> 03:03:51,349
I hope he's not.

5828
03:03:51,349 --> 03:03:53,351
If he's not here.

5829
03:03:53,351 --> 03:03:54,118
I hope he can come back soon

5830
03:03:54,118 --> 03:03:54,452
and things can be going well

5831
03:03:54,452 --> 03:03:55,219
for him.

5832
03:03:55,219 --> 03:03:58,219
Thank you for this item.

5833
03:03:58,823 --> 03:04:01,823
Thank you for the presentation.

5834
03:04:03,594 --> 03:04:04,462
I don't know how much.

5835
03:04:04,462 --> 03:04:08,232
Well, I guess first to start is

5836
03:04:08,232 --> 03:04:10,632
I talk here often.

5837
03:04:12,604 --> 03:04:12,904
You know the importance of that

5838
03:04:12,904 --> 03:04:13,838
.

5839
03:04:13,838 --> 03:04:14,538
There is a lot of surveillance

5840
03:04:14,538 --> 03:04:16,938
technology in wildlife trails

5841
03:04:18,509 --> 03:04:19,410
and and how I'm sure you will

5842
03:04:19,410 --> 03:04:22,947
be planting this item in some

5843
03:04:22,947 --> 03:04:23,681
form since data collection.

5844
03:04:23,681 --> 03:04:26,681
You know what the endangered

5845
03:04:27,185 --> 03:04:27,952
species species count.

5846
03:04:27,952 --> 03:04:28,418
You know technology is used for

5847
03:04:28,418 --> 03:04:30,418
that these days.

5848
03:04:32,230 --> 03:04:32,357
You know the air quality

5849
03:04:32,357 --> 03:04:33,191
samples.

5850
03:04:33,191 --> 03:04:36,494
And the city of Davis as I've

5851
03:04:36,494 --> 03:04:37,395
described before, has created a

5852
03:04:37,395 --> 03:04:40,395
really good set of public

5853
03:04:41,366 --> 03:04:42,660
policies around wildlife

5854
03:04:42,660 --> 03:04:44,660
ordinance, wildlife technology

5855
03:04:46,400 --> 03:04:46,837
issues.

5856
03:04:46,837 --> 03:04:47,472
And it gives clear definitions

5857
03:04:47,472 --> 03:04:51,420
how it can be good public

5858
03:04:51,420 --> 03:04:51,776
policies with you know,

5859
03:04:51,776 --> 03:04:52,477
the tech can be with the public

5860
03:04:52,477 --> 03:04:56,770
that I think possibly can give

5861
03:04:56,481 --> 03:04:57,115
us good examples how to feel

5862
03:04:57,115 --> 03:04:57,782
more safe and trusting and

5863
03:04:57,782 --> 03:05:00,718
about how to talk about our

5864
03:05:00,718 --> 03:05:01,552
overall day to day tech issues.

5865
03:05:01,552 --> 03:05:05,152
And you know, I always am

5866
03:05:05,156 --> 03:05:05,957
trying to find ways that can be

5867
03:05:05,957 --> 03:05:06,424
easier to talk about and that

5868
03:05:06,424 --> 03:05:07,358
can be a way.

5869
03:05:07,358 --> 03:05:11,558
The city of Davis is over by

5870
03:05:11,629 --> 03:05:12,297
Sacramento, its home of uc

5871
03:05:12,297 --> 03:05:15,897
Davis And yeah, they had a

5872
03:05:15,900 --> 03:05:16,201
really good start on this stuff

5873
03:05:16,201 --> 03:05:16,901
.

5874
03:05:16,901 --> 03:05:17,201
I mean people would flock

5875
03:05:17,201 --> 03:05:17,902
there.

5876
03:05:17,902 --> 03:05:18,203
It would not flock but people

5877
03:05:18,203 --> 03:05:20,203
would.

5878
03:05:20,537 --> 03:05:21,239
It was a pilgrimage for city

5879
03:05:21,239 --> 03:05:22,700
governments to go to Davis and

5880
03:05:22,700 --> 03:05:25,143
check out what they do with

5881
03:05:25,143 --> 03:05:27,543
their wildlife policies with

5882
03:05:29,848 --> 03:05:30,348
tech, tech and um so good luck

5883
03:05:30,348 --> 03:05:32,348
in those efforts.

5884
03:05:34,885 --> 03:05:35,620
What you can be doing.

5885
03:05:35,620 --> 03:05:36,254
Uh, Councilperson LaCava, thank

5886
03:05:36,254 --> 03:05:39,191
you very much for your

5887
03:05:39,191 --> 03:05:39,957
questions.

5888
03:05:39,957 --> 03:05:42,957
A few items back around

5889
03:05:45,300 --> 03:05:45,497
technology use and broadband

5890
03:05:45,497 --> 03:05:45,931
are important.

5891
03:05:45,931 --> 03:05:46,331
>> Thank you.

5892
03:05:46,331 --> 03:05:46,965
Thank you.

5893
03:05:46,965 --> 03:05:47,498
Sorry the five minute time

5894
03:05:47,498 --> 03:05:49,498
recording of those

5895
03:05:49,768 --> 03:05:50,501
participating remotely We

5896
03:05:50,501 --> 03:05:51,202
currently have five speakers in

5897
03:05:51,202 --> 03:05:53,805
the queue The original If you

5898
03:05:53,805 --> 03:05:55,805
can please unmute.

5899
03:05:59,277 --> 03:05:59,744
Can't hear me.

5900
03:05:59,744 --> 03:06:00,450
Please proceed.

5901
03:06:00,450 --> 03:06:00,345
Hello.

5902
03:06:00,345 --> 03:06:02,345
Okay.

5903
03:06:04,140 --> 03:06:04,616
Yes so it's interesting to hear

5904
03:06:04,616 --> 03:06:05,250
you guys talk about like

5905
03:06:05,250 --> 03:06:07,250
wildlife preservation and

5906
03:06:08,820 --> 03:06:09,520
things like that and anything

5907
03:06:09,520 --> 03:06:13,120
going on with Mission Bay Park

5908
03:06:13,458 --> 03:06:14,159
especially You say that

5909
03:06:14,159 --> 03:06:14,559
the water level is going to

5910
03:06:14,559 --> 03:06:15,493
rise, right?

5911
03:06:15,493 --> 03:06:17,895
Oh I we do leases down there

5912
03:06:17,895 --> 03:06:18,597
Seems a little bit

5913
03:06:18,597 --> 03:06:19,264
counterproductive But for you

5914
03:06:19,264 --> 03:06:22,264
guys to be trusted with

5915
03:06:23,102 --> 03:06:23,734
wildlife if at preserving

5916
03:06:23,734 --> 03:06:24,436
anything it's a little bit

5917
03:06:24,436 --> 03:06:27,471
scary because I mean not only

5918
03:06:27,471 --> 03:06:28,172
has it been shown and proven by

5919
03:06:28,172 --> 03:06:28,806
the birds that have been dying

5920
03:06:28,806 --> 03:06:31,806
there and the other people

5921
03:06:32,444 --> 03:06:33,145
having to come in and mitigate

5922
03:06:33,145 --> 03:06:36,145
those things because you guys

5923
03:06:37,182 --> 03:06:37,916
refuse to It's like you can't

5924
03:06:37,916 --> 03:06:38,417
even help anybody that's living

5925
03:06:38,417 --> 03:06:40,417
better their life.

5926
03:06:42,220 --> 03:06:42,821
I mean you have to sit here and

5927
03:06:42,821 --> 03:06:43,487
say that you're helping

5928
03:06:43,487 --> 03:06:43,989
the homeless when in reality

5929
03:06:43,989 --> 03:06:45,989
you're killing us.

5930
03:06:47,225 --> 03:06:47,826
I mean you're surely doing that

5931
03:06:47,826 --> 03:06:48,193
and you're keeping them

5932
03:06:48,193 --> 03:06:48,860
homeless.

5933
03:06:48,860 --> 03:06:51,950
So it's a wonder if this is

5934
03:06:51,950 --> 03:06:51,730
just your way to get money to

5935
03:06:51,730 --> 03:06:54,130
pretend to preserve stuff.

5936
03:06:55,534 --> 03:06:56,234
I mean you guys give us back

5937
03:06:56,234 --> 03:06:56,902
water that's tainted like you

5938
03:06:56,902 --> 03:06:59,902
You do literally put things

5939
03:07:01,730 --> 03:07:04,673
like why and coloring I mean

5940
03:07:05,611 --> 03:07:06,311
all this stuff claiming that

5941
03:07:06,311 --> 03:07:07,120
it's healthy when it's like I

5942
03:07:07,120 --> 03:07:10,115
guarantee if I gave you a cup

5943
03:07:10,115 --> 03:07:10,816
of that stuff you guys wouldn't

5944
03:07:10,816 --> 03:07:11,517
drink it because you'd be like

5945
03:07:11,517 --> 03:07:12,284
You're poisoning me but you do

5946
03:07:12,284 --> 03:07:15,520
it on a massive scale to

5947
03:07:15,520 --> 03:07:16,221
the people and hey there's

5948
03:07:16,221 --> 03:07:16,855
fluoride in the water which is

5949
03:07:16,855 --> 03:07:19,255
a total neurotoxin, right?

5950
03:07:20,359 --> 03:07:20,859
But it's good for our teeth.

5951
03:07:20,859 --> 03:07:21,627
Yeah, right.

5952
03:07:21,627 --> 03:07:22,494
Like you guys just you invert

5953
03:07:22,494 --> 03:07:25,330
everything and you want to sit

5954
03:07:25,330 --> 03:07:26,310
here and, you know, virtue

5955
03:07:26,310 --> 03:07:29,310
signal as though you actually

5956
03:07:30,268 --> 03:07:30,669
can preserve anything and I

5957
03:07:30,669 --> 03:07:31,690
don't know.

5958
03:07:31,690 --> 03:07:31,803
I mean it.

5959
03:07:31,803 --> 03:07:34,803
It'd be better at preserving

5960
03:07:34,873 --> 03:07:35,641
your own.

5961
03:07:35,641 --> 03:07:36,241
I mean at this point because

5962
03:07:36,241 --> 03:07:36,709
it's like you can't even

5963
03:07:36,709 --> 03:07:38,709
preserve money.

5964
03:07:39,311 --> 03:07:39,978
I mean you guys basically just

5965
03:07:39,978 --> 03:07:42,978
come and take people's money

5966
03:07:44,349 --> 03:07:45,217
and pretend to do something

5967
03:07:45,217 --> 03:07:46,170
that is better for us And all

5968
03:07:46,170 --> 03:07:46,685
we have to do is again look at

5969
03:07:46,685 --> 03:07:47,285
the world around us and see

5970
03:07:47,285 --> 03:07:49,755
what you're doing is not

5971
03:07:49,755 --> 03:07:50,456
beneficial especially when you

5972
03:07:50,456 --> 03:07:51,123
like on one hand say that

5973
03:07:51,123 --> 03:07:53,523
you're like doing something

5974
03:07:55,194 --> 03:07:55,860
healthy and like you want

5975
03:07:55,860 --> 03:07:56,261
people to inject themselves

5976
03:07:56,261 --> 03:07:56,729
with a bio.

5977
03:07:56,729 --> 03:07:57,620
What's it like?

5978
03:07:57,620 --> 03:07:59,620
Come on.

5979
03:07:59,164 --> 03:07:59,831
Everything that you guys have

5980
03:07:59,831 --> 03:08:00,498
done over the years has been

5981
03:08:00,498 --> 03:08:02,898
totally detrimental to every

5982
03:08:05,170 --> 03:08:05,871
living thing So get a grip.

5983
03:08:05,871 --> 03:08:06,238
>> Let's be where time has

5984
03:08:06,238 --> 03:08:06,905
concluded.

5985
03:08:06,905 --> 03:08:08,707
Katherine Rhodes if you can

5986
03:08:08,707 --> 03:08:09,408
please unmute.

5987
03:08:09,408 --> 03:08:10,276
>> Hello, this is Katherine

5988
03:08:10,276 --> 03:08:14,246
Rhodes and first I want to say

5989
03:08:14,246 --> 03:08:18,170
that I really like E.R. And

5990
03:08:18,170 --> 03:08:18,884
Mission Bay Park improvements

5991
03:08:18,884 --> 03:08:21,884
Super supportive of the Rewild

5992
03:08:22,755 --> 03:08:23,722
pb.

5993
03:08:23,722 --> 03:08:27,322
And I think that this year

5994
03:08:28,590 --> 03:08:31,590
should be an example for

5995
03:08:32,665 --> 03:08:33,299
the Midway rising Earth where

5996
03:08:33,299 --> 03:08:35,699
this one was complete.

5997
03:08:37,435 --> 03:08:38,170
This one went through so many

5998
03:08:38,170 --> 03:08:38,904
things that I haven't even been

5999
03:08:38,904 --> 03:08:42,504
able to read the report because

6000
03:08:42,742 --> 03:08:43,375
it's so long you know it's

6001
03:08:43,375 --> 03:08:45,775
thousands and thousands of

6002
03:08:47,313 --> 03:08:47,713
pages long with this great

6003
03:08:47,713 --> 03:08:48,481
information.

6004
03:08:48,481 --> 03:08:51,350
So I just want to say to

6005
03:08:51,350 --> 03:08:52,118
the city staff that and and

6006
03:08:52,118 --> 03:08:52,885
your contractors that you did a

6007
03:08:52,885 --> 03:08:56,389
great job and I wish you would

6008
03:08:56,389 --> 03:08:57,550
do the same exact job at Midway

6009
03:08:57,550 --> 03:08:59,455
Rising and specifically for

6010
03:09:01,590 --> 03:09:01,727
Midway Rising not go along with

6011
03:09:01,727 --> 03:09:04,727
the Senate Bill 958 which is

6012
03:09:05,998 --> 03:09:06,799
trying to get rid of

6013
03:09:06,799 --> 03:09:09,799
the requirements for height to

6014
03:09:11,337 --> 03:09:11,904
be analyzed in the air and

6015
03:09:11,904 --> 03:09:13,904
geology and hydrology.

6016
03:09:15,874 --> 03:09:16,776
That means that if that passes

6017
03:09:16,776 --> 03:09:20,813
that means that you can do high

6018
03:09:20,813 --> 03:09:21,680
rise hotels all over Mission

6019
03:09:21,680 --> 03:09:25,280
Bay on map foundations that are

6020
03:09:25,751 --> 03:09:26,618
not safe.

6021
03:09:26,618 --> 03:09:30,690
And the solution for that is to

6022
03:09:30,690 --> 03:09:31,390
call in the state Seismic

6023
03:09:31,390 --> 03:09:34,390
Safety Advisory board that has

6024
03:09:35,628 --> 03:09:36,429
engineers from Caltech,

6025
03:09:36,429 --> 03:09:40,290
Berkeley and there were two of

6026
03:09:40,299 --> 03:09:41,330
them from ucsd to actually give

6027
03:09:41,330 --> 03:09:41,667
you information if you're going

6028
03:09:41,667 --> 03:09:44,667
to be doing high rise

6029
03:09:45,271 --> 03:09:45,971
structures that actually give

6030
03:09:45,971 --> 03:09:48,971
you information how to create

6031
03:09:49,809 --> 03:09:50,710
backup foundations.

6032
03:09:50,710 --> 03:09:51,410
And so thank you so much for

6033
03:09:51,410 --> 03:09:54,446
this And I really also like

6034
03:09:54,446 --> 03:09:55,181
that you talked about our aging

6035
03:09:55,181 --> 03:09:58,781
seawall and I was thinking that

6036
03:09:58,818 --> 03:09:59,585
our seawall instead of doing

6037
03:09:59,585 --> 03:10:00,219
what you have right now you

6038
03:10:00,219 --> 03:10:03,819
should look at the city of

6039
03:10:03,990 --> 03:10:04,757
Coronado and see how they put

6040
03:10:04,757 --> 03:10:05,391
the big rock rip preps and then

6041
03:10:05,391 --> 03:10:05,691
the sands and created sand

6042
03:10:05,691 --> 03:10:07,691
dunes.

6043
03:10:09,328 --> 03:10:09,929
I think that would be a great

6044
03:10:09,929 --> 03:10:10,363
idea for Mission Beach.

6045
03:10:10,363 --> 03:10:12,363
>> Thank you.

6046
03:10:12,965 --> 03:10:13,633
But thank you.

6047
03:10:13,633 --> 03:10:15,633
>> Next is Toni.

6048
03:10:17,770 --> 03:10:18,171
If you can please unmute.

6049
03:10:18,171 --> 03:10:18,738
>> Hello?

6050
03:10:18,738 --> 03:10:21,138
Can you hear me?

6051
03:10:22,241 --> 03:10:22,742
Yes.

6052
03:10:22,742 --> 03:10:23,175
Please proceed.

6053
03:10:23,175 --> 03:10:23,643
Hey thank you.

6054
03:10:23,643 --> 03:10:25,643
Good afternoon.

6055
03:10:27,447 --> 03:10:28,281
City Council.

6056
03:10:28,281 --> 03:10:28,548
I hope you're having a good

6057
03:10:28,548 --> 03:10:29,248
day.

6058
03:10:29,248 --> 03:10:32,451
I just wanted to say I really

6059
03:10:32,451 --> 03:10:33,119
appreciate all of the input

6060
03:10:33,119 --> 03:10:33,753
that Katherine Rhodes gives

6061
03:10:33,753 --> 03:10:34,530
routinely on all of these

6062
03:10:34,530 --> 03:10:34,754
calls.

6063
03:10:34,754 --> 03:10:37,991
I think she has some really

6064
03:10:37,991 --> 03:10:38,691
brilliant advice and and I was

6065
03:10:38,691 --> 03:10:39,459
just looking at the agenda for

6066
03:10:39,459 --> 03:10:42,763
today And when I look at

6067
03:10:42,763 --> 03:10:43,463
the bottom I saw that she had

6068
03:10:43,463 --> 03:10:44,163
actually been responsible for

6069
03:10:44,163 --> 03:10:47,163
implementing one of the ballot

6070
03:10:47,267 --> 03:10:47,967
proposals, the one for amending

6071
03:10:47,967 --> 03:10:50,967
the municipal code related to

6072
03:10:51,938 --> 03:10:52,639
transient occupancy tax

6073
03:10:52,639 --> 03:10:53,306
including reclassifying online

6074
03:10:53,306 --> 03:10:55,706
travel companies agencies as

6075
03:10:57,100 --> 03:10:57,877
hotel operators.

6076
03:10:57,877 --> 03:10:58,578
And I believe I was there

6077
03:10:58,578 --> 03:11:02,480
either in camp like in person

6078
03:11:02,480 --> 03:11:02,849
in council or I heard that

6079
03:11:02,849 --> 03:11:05,849
discussion online But I vaguely

6080
03:11:07,120 --> 03:11:07,387
remember the conversation about

6081
03:11:07,387 --> 03:11:08,870
it.

6082
03:11:08,870 --> 03:11:11,224
But anyway I just really spoke

6083
03:11:11,224 --> 03:11:11,958
to the power of individuals

6084
03:11:11,958 --> 03:11:12,691
being able to effect change and

6085
03:11:12,691 --> 03:11:16,562
I know that a lot of us feel

6086
03:11:16,562 --> 03:11:16,896
like we're sometimes in an echo

6087
03:11:16,896 --> 03:11:17,497
chamber.

6088
03:11:17,497 --> 03:11:18,197
Sometimes we feel we get

6089
03:11:18,197 --> 03:11:20,597
frustrated feeling like y'all

6090
03:11:21,167 --> 03:11:21,934
aren't listening.

6091
03:11:21,934 --> 03:11:22,602
But throughout the day to day

6092
03:11:22,602 --> 03:11:25,602
you have given us continuous

6093
03:11:26,205 --> 03:11:26,906
examples of the fact that you

6094
03:11:26,906 --> 03:11:27,640
are listening whether it was

6095
03:11:27,640 --> 03:11:30,542
Rahul Gandhi or responding to a

6096
03:11:30,542 --> 03:11:31,211
question or rather wanting

6097
03:11:31,211 --> 03:11:33,611
clarification on a question

6098
03:11:35,481 --> 03:11:36,115
that a caller was asking or

6099
03:11:36,115 --> 03:11:39,115
whether it was Joe LaCava

6100
03:11:40,720 --> 03:11:41,221
responding or Shawnee Lou

6101
03:11:41,221 --> 03:11:41,721
Rivera responding.

6102
03:11:41,721 --> 03:11:42,422
I just appreciate

6103
03:11:42,422 --> 03:11:44,822
the conversation that's that's

6104
03:11:45,525 --> 03:11:46,125
being had back and forth.

6105
03:11:46,125 --> 03:11:46,826
I appreciate you all

6106
03:11:46,826 --> 03:11:49,226
acknowledging the things that

6107
03:11:50,300 --> 03:11:50,630
we say when we call in to see

6108
03:11:50,630 --> 03:11:51,298
them and great work to

6109
03:11:51,298 --> 03:11:54,298
the staff that put together

6110
03:11:55,268 --> 03:11:55,969
this presentation And I think

6111
03:11:55,969 --> 03:11:56,636
it's a tremendous job And I

6112
03:11:56,636 --> 03:11:59,360
totally agree with what

6113
03:11:59,406 --> 03:12:00,139
Katherine Rhodes was saying

6114
03:12:00,139 --> 03:12:00,607
about it being a good idea to

6115
03:12:00,607 --> 03:12:02,607
put some rocks.

6116
03:12:04,144 --> 03:12:04,811
I went to high school near

6117
03:12:04,811 --> 03:12:05,445
Cornaro and have seen all

6118
03:12:05,445 --> 03:12:08,445
the work that they've done

6119
03:12:08,815 --> 03:12:09,716
recently to expand the sidewalk

6120
03:12:09,716 --> 03:12:13,916
and put up those rocks to to

6121
03:12:13,954 --> 03:12:14,721
prevent further sand erosion

6122
03:12:14,721 --> 03:12:18,921
which is a big problem you know

6123
03:12:19,590 --> 03:12:19,659
in all the beaches in San Diego

6124
03:12:19,659 --> 03:12:20,427
and including Coronado.

6125
03:12:20,427 --> 03:12:24,627
But yeah so good luck with with

6126
03:12:24,697 --> 03:12:25,970
all of that and thanks for

6127
03:12:25,970 --> 03:12:25,532
everything.

6128
03:12:25,532 --> 03:12:26,266
>> Thank you.

6129
03:12:26,266 --> 03:12:28,801
If I MAY Timer has concluded no

6130
03:12:28,801 --> 03:12:29,102
additional speakers will be

6131
03:12:29,102 --> 03:12:29,735
taken.

6132
03:12:29,735 --> 03:12:30,403
We have three speakers in

6133
03:12:30,403 --> 03:12:33,339
the queue 8700 If you can

6134
03:12:33,339 --> 03:12:35,339
please unmute.

6135
03:12:38,945 --> 03:12:40,945
Thank you joy.

6136
03:12:42,982 --> 03:12:43,883
Sonya two years ago when I

6137
03:12:43,883 --> 03:12:47,483
started being active in ccd I

6138
03:12:47,754 --> 03:12:50,154
was really enthralled with

6139
03:12:52,926 --> 03:12:53,493
the Irish and found them very

6140
03:12:53,493 --> 03:12:54,227
complicated but I was

6141
03:12:54,227 --> 03:12:57,227
enthralled with them and even

6142
03:12:58,565 --> 03:12:59,132
more so I never could get a

6143
03:12:59,132 --> 03:13:02,132
handle on the m them.

6144
03:13:02,436 --> 03:13:03,103
I could mitigation and

6145
03:13:03,103 --> 03:13:05,503
monitoring reports and I'll

6146
03:13:08,141 --> 03:13:09,900
tell you why.

6147
03:13:09,900 --> 03:13:12,112
Now in regards to this on item

6148
03:13:12,112 --> 03:13:12,913
80 you've got to resolve

6149
03:13:12,913 --> 03:13:16,683
certifying the I r o by the way

6150
03:13:16,683 --> 03:13:17,416
I agree it is a great air.

6151
03:13:17,416 --> 03:13:17,718
It's absolutely excellent a

6152
03:13:17,718 --> 03:13:19,718
model.

6153
03:13:21,989 --> 03:13:22,689
But anyway we've got

6154
03:13:22,689 --> 03:13:25,689
the resolve certifying the air

6155
03:13:30,864 --> 03:13:36,436
and the r p so the m m r p How

6156
03:13:36,436 --> 03:13:37,171
does it become transparent that

6157
03:13:37,171 --> 03:13:40,171
these mitigations that were six

6158
03:13:41,375 --> 03:13:42,420
areas four of them were green,

6159
03:13:42,420 --> 03:13:42,709
which were the bigger ones I

6160
03:13:42,709 --> 03:13:43,100
believe and two of them were

6161
03:13:43,100 --> 03:13:44,911
blue.

6162
03:13:44,911 --> 03:13:45,879
The blue was the air quality

6163
03:13:45,879 --> 03:13:46,480
And I think the other one I MAY

6164
03:13:46,480 --> 03:13:48,880
have written this wrong

6165
03:13:50,818 --> 03:13:51,451
cultural resources but I've

6166
03:13:51,451 --> 03:13:52,152
always wondered and never

6167
03:13:52,152 --> 03:13:55,152
really gotten the full answer

6168
03:13:55,889 --> 03:13:56,656
is there data accumulated a

6169
03:13:56,656 --> 03:13:59,656
cool bar was up on

6170
03:14:01,295 --> 03:14:01,995
the implementing nation and

6171
03:14:01,995 --> 03:14:04,395
watches these mitigations and

6172
03:14:06,330 --> 03:14:09,633
that's still sort of gnaws at

6173
03:14:10,504 --> 03:14:10,838
me So I wish I could get that

6174
03:14:10,838 --> 03:14:11,538
answer.

6175
03:14:11,538 --> 03:14:15,141
I didn't have time to do much

6176
03:14:15,141 --> 03:14:15,910
work with this item but I'm

6177
03:14:15,910 --> 03:14:18,910
very concerned about the mmr

6178
03:14:19,813 --> 03:14:22,813
piece and how we're watching

6179
03:14:24,418 --> 03:14:25,152
over because it does tweak

6180
03:14:25,152 --> 03:14:28,752
the requirements of the air and

6181
03:14:29,890 --> 03:14:29,790
I'm not against that but I just

6182
03:14:29,790 --> 03:14:32,790
hope that somebody is watching

6183
03:14:34,127 --> 03:14:34,795
over the monitoring, somebody

6184
03:14:34,795 --> 03:14:35,429
is monitoring the mitigation

6185
03:14:35,429 --> 03:14:37,829
and its implementation and

6186
03:14:39,400 --> 03:14:40,670
protecting our beautiful

6187
03:14:40,670 --> 03:14:40,434
mission Bay Park in that in

6188
03:14:40,434 --> 03:14:40,734
that area.

6189
03:14:40,734 --> 03:14:42,734
Okay.

6190
03:14:45,406 --> 03:14:45,806
Thank you for listening to all.

6191
03:14:45,806 --> 03:14:46,473
Thank you.

6192
03:14:46,473 --> 03:14:47,740
Kathleen Lippert, if you can

6193
03:14:47,740 --> 03:14:48,576
please unmute then Peggy

6194
03:14:48,576 --> 03:14:49,443
Walker's our last speaker.

6195
03:14:49,443 --> 03:14:52,443
>> The same reason that cigaret

6196
03:14:53,314 --> 03:14:54,140
butts remain a top pollutant of

6197
03:14:54,140 --> 03:14:56,140
coastal ecosystems endangering

6198
03:14:58,352 --> 03:14:59,860
wildlife, releasing toxic

6199
03:14:59,860 --> 03:15:02,860
chemicals like arsenic lead and

6200
03:15:02,990 --> 03:15:03,691
nicotine into the water is

6201
03:15:03,691 --> 03:15:04,358
the same reason we see people

6202
03:15:04,358 --> 03:15:06,758
throwing litter onto public

6203
03:15:07,595 --> 03:15:08,195
streets and sidewalks They

6204
03:15:08,195 --> 03:15:08,596
perceive no risk of

6205
03:15:08,596 --> 03:15:10,596
consequence.

6206
03:15:11,532 --> 03:15:12,399
What good are $1,000 litter

6207
03:15:12,399 --> 03:15:16,700
fines if no one is ever fine

6208
03:15:16,700 --> 03:15:16,871
for littering?

6209
03:15:16,871 --> 03:15:17,571
If we are serious about keeping

6210
03:15:17,571 --> 03:15:20,571
toxic pollutants off our beach

6211
03:15:21,141 --> 03:15:21,909
then the potential for being

6212
03:15:21,909 --> 03:15:25,880
fine must be real And we must

6213
03:15:25,880 --> 03:15:26,580
the public must be seen as

6214
03:15:26,580 --> 03:15:29,580
being fined for littering and

6215
03:15:31,850 --> 03:15:31,819
making sure that we protect

6216
03:15:31,819 --> 03:15:32,219
the beaches that we say that we

6217
03:15:32,219 --> 03:15:34,219
care about.

6218
03:15:36,560 --> 03:15:36,490
>> These items are non

6219
03:15:36,490 --> 03:15:37,158
biodegradable.

6220
03:15:37,158 --> 03:15:40,158
The plastic base filters are

6221
03:15:40,427 --> 03:15:41,280
ingested by fever and sea

6222
03:15:41,280 --> 03:15:41,695
turtles fish and causing

6223
03:15:41,695 --> 03:15:43,695
malnutrition, poisoning and

6224
03:15:45,499 --> 03:15:46,233
death.

6225
03:15:46,233 --> 03:15:48,633
>> Please consider adding more

6226
03:15:50,605 --> 03:15:51,238
enforcement to such that these

6227
03:15:51,238 --> 03:15:51,906
are these really go along

6228
03:15:51,906 --> 03:15:54,906
the way of broken window

6229
03:15:56,344 --> 03:15:57,100
theories and they MAY seem

6230
03:15:57,100 --> 03:15:57,278
inconsequential but they are

6231
03:15:57,278 --> 03:15:59,278
not.

6232
03:16:01,480 --> 03:16:01,915
You find people for making sure

6233
03:16:01,915 --> 03:16:05,515
that they take care and prevent

6234
03:16:05,686 --> 03:16:06,200
and don't engage in minor

6235
03:16:06,200 --> 03:16:08,200
crimes.

6236
03:16:10,591 --> 03:16:11,459
They won't go on to be worse.

6237
03:16:11,459 --> 03:16:11,826
Thank you for letting me speak.

6238
03:16:11,826 --> 03:16:13,826
Thank you.

6239
03:16:20,101 --> 03:16:21,340
Peggy Walker Thank you.

6240
03:16:21,340 --> 03:16:25,600
>> I just want to follow up on

6241
03:16:25,600 --> 03:16:25,640
that last speaker to say that

6242
03:16:25,640 --> 03:16:28,400
considering the hazards of

6243
03:16:30,244 --> 03:16:30,915
cigaret butter and single use

6244
03:16:30,915 --> 03:16:33,915
plastic vape devices that we

6245
03:16:34,782 --> 03:16:35,483
should be uncertain about

6246
03:16:35,483 --> 03:16:37,883
bringing our resources, our

6247
03:16:39,921 --> 03:16:40,688
precious resources like parks

6248
03:16:40,688 --> 03:16:41,489
and beaches of these as we are

6249
03:16:41,489 --> 03:16:44,489
of plastic food containers and

6250
03:16:45,590 --> 03:16:45,760
as such a lot about

6251
03:16:45,760 --> 03:16:48,160
the enforcement cigaret butts

6252
03:16:49,364 --> 03:16:50,640
and I think the previous

6253
03:16:50,640 --> 03:16:50,631
speaker mentioned those are

6254
03:16:50,631 --> 03:16:53,310
the largest source of

6255
03:16:54,168 --> 03:16:54,836
microplastic waste in the world

6256
03:16:54,836 --> 03:16:57,836
and single use plastic vape

6257
03:16:58,807 --> 03:17:01,207
devices are e-cigs are

6258
03:17:03,544 --> 03:17:04,211
hazardous waste and due to

6259
03:17:04,211 --> 03:17:06,611
toxic chemicals the plastic

6260
03:17:08,750 --> 03:17:09,450
device itself and flammable

6261
03:17:09,450 --> 03:17:12,450
lithium ion batteries that can

6262
03:17:13,788 --> 03:17:14,622
flame up at any time anywhere.

6263
03:17:14,622 --> 03:17:17,622
So good mitigation policy would

6264
03:17:18,693 --> 03:17:19,326
be to prohibit the use of these

6265
03:17:19,326 --> 03:17:21,326
in environmentally

6266
03:17:22,931 --> 03:17:23,531
environmentally and any other

6267
03:17:23,531 --> 03:17:25,531
environmentally mentally

6268
03:17:28,536 --> 03:17:29,404
detriment into tobacco or pet

6269
03:17:29,404 --> 03:17:33,400
products in and around our our

6270
03:17:33,410 --> 03:17:35,410
most precious resources.

6271
03:17:37,512 --> 03:17:38,113
I hope you'll consider further

6272
03:17:38,113 --> 03:17:40,113
enforcement strategies.

6273
03:17:42,784 --> 03:17:43,384
Thank you.

6274
03:17:43,384 --> 03:17:44,510
>> Thank you.

6275
03:17:44,510 --> 03:17:46,451
And my apologies, Hector.

6276
03:17:48,189 --> 03:17:48,789
I thought we had heard from you

6277
03:17:48,789 --> 03:17:49,456
but maybe that was Tony.

6278
03:17:49,456 --> 03:17:49,824
Can you please on mute?

6279
03:17:49,824 --> 03:17:50,258
Oh, yeah.

6280
03:17:50,258 --> 03:17:52,258
Thanks a lot.

6281
03:17:53,661 --> 03:17:54,329
I I haven't talked yet.

6282
03:17:54,329 --> 03:17:55,196
I've been thinking about it.

6283
03:17:55,196 --> 03:17:57,565
Yeah, I grew up in San Diego

6284
03:17:57,565 --> 03:17:58,199
rather than riding

6285
03:17:58,199 --> 03:17:58,767
the boardwalk since 1965.

6286
03:17:58,767 --> 03:18:01,767
I wrote it this week.

6287
03:18:02,771 --> 03:18:03,538
I write a couple of times a

6288
03:18:03,538 --> 03:18:04,239
week and are really excited but

6289
03:18:04,239 --> 03:18:04,906
I didn't know this was all

6290
03:18:04,906 --> 03:18:07,108
going on with the boardwalk

6291
03:18:07,108 --> 03:18:07,808
itself.

6292
03:18:07,808 --> 03:18:08,476
I do know something about

6293
03:18:08,476 --> 03:18:11,476
the boardwalk When you guys

6294
03:18:12,180 --> 03:18:12,947
redid the northern part you

6295
03:18:12,947 --> 03:18:17,147
built it in the same spot where

6296
03:18:17,586 --> 03:18:18,353
you should have widened it like

6297
03:18:18,353 --> 03:18:18,954
ten feet and you built it brand

6298
03:18:18,954 --> 03:18:21,954
new like ten years ago.

6299
03:18:23,558 --> 03:18:24,325
I know.

6300
03:18:24,325 --> 03:18:24,658
How is the city going to mess

6301
03:18:24,658 --> 03:18:26,610
this up?

6302
03:18:26,610 --> 03:18:26,828
We spend all this money there

6303
03:18:26,828 --> 03:18:27,295
building one to just make it

6304
03:18:27,295 --> 03:18:27,996
ten feet wider.

6305
03:18:27,996 --> 03:18:30,198
You guys probably ride

6306
03:18:30,198 --> 03:18:30,866
the boardwalk.

6307
03:18:30,866 --> 03:18:31,399
That's where it's really

6308
03:18:31,399 --> 03:18:32,133
restricted in there.

6309
03:18:32,133 --> 03:18:32,434
It's hard to ride your bike and

6310
03:18:32,434 --> 03:18:34,434
stuff.

6311
03:18:35,436 --> 03:18:36,171
A lot of people So when you do

6312
03:18:36,171 --> 03:18:36,771
the southern part it looks like

6313
03:18:36,771 --> 03:18:39,574
you're going to do a new

6314
03:18:39,574 --> 03:18:40,275
southern wall down there on

6315
03:18:40,275 --> 03:18:43,378
the southern part by the jetty

6316
03:18:43,378 --> 03:18:44,790
makes at ten feet wider And

6317
03:18:44,790 --> 03:18:47,790
actually the people down there

6318
03:18:48,216 --> 03:18:49,117
the owners, property owners

6319
03:18:49,117 --> 03:18:49,684
down there I used to live on

6320
03:18:49,684 --> 03:18:50,510
double court there on

6321
03:18:50,510 --> 03:18:50,752
the front.

6322
03:18:50,752 --> 03:18:53,688
The property owners have been

6323
03:18:53,688 --> 03:18:56,880
cringed on our land.

6324
03:18:58,326 --> 03:18:59,940
The guys that the owners of

6325
03:18:59,940 --> 03:19:02,300
that land it's not their land

6326
03:19:02,300 --> 03:19:02,731
And the very front was about

6327
03:19:02,731 --> 03:19:03,598
15ft that belongs to the city

6328
03:19:03,598 --> 03:19:07,198
So maybe charge those guys for

6329
03:19:07,469 --> 03:19:08,336
the land.

6330
03:19:08,336 --> 03:19:09,104
I hope you guys know this cause

6331
03:19:09,104 --> 03:19:12,140
and make that wider down there

6332
03:19:12,140 --> 03:19:12,841
at South Mission it's really

6333
03:19:12,841 --> 03:19:16,441
restricted too and it needs to

6334
03:19:16,711 --> 03:19:17,412
be built up But it's do a good

6335
03:19:17,412 --> 03:19:17,978
job, build the wall first and

6336
03:19:17,978 --> 03:19:20,378
then do the sidewalk.

6337
03:19:21,783 --> 03:19:22,451
You know you got to do it So it

6338
03:19:22,451 --> 03:19:23,510
works for everybody But that

6339
03:19:23,510 --> 03:19:25,451
sounds really cool man.

6340
03:19:26,540 --> 03:19:26,754
And then but either charge

6341
03:19:26,754 --> 03:19:30,354
the guys they're not going to

6342
03:19:30,525 --> 03:19:31,193
tell you that I hope you guys

6343
03:19:31,193 --> 03:19:34,193
know that that it's actually

6344
03:19:34,997 --> 03:19:35,697
our land and they've actually

6345
03:19:35,697 --> 03:19:36,431
just took it over time.

6346
03:19:36,431 --> 03:19:39,668
They just put their chairs on

6347
03:19:39,668 --> 03:19:40,402
it and they built the little

6348
03:19:40,402 --> 03:19:44,406
fence and they got the land now

6349
03:19:44,406 --> 03:19:45,400
looks like it but there's some

6350
03:19:45,400 --> 03:19:45,340
shady thing going on down

6351
03:19:45,340 --> 03:19:47,340
there.

6352
03:19:49,378 --> 03:19:50,145
It's a power play So hopefully

6353
03:19:50,145 --> 03:19:50,913
and I guess could make the wall

6354
03:19:50,913 --> 03:19:53,913
a little higher for that

6355
03:19:54,490 --> 03:19:54,483
seawall.

6356
03:19:54,483 --> 03:19:55,183
Seawater rise.

6357
03:19:55,183 --> 03:19:55,917
So thanks for your time has

6358
03:19:55,917 --> 03:19:58,921
concluded and so has the public

6359
03:19:58,921 --> 03:19:59,388
comment on this item.

6360
03:19:59,388 --> 03:19:59,788
>> All right.

6361
03:19:59,788 --> 03:20:00,455
Thank you.

6362
03:20:00,455 --> 03:20:01,560
So we'll quickly turn to

6363
03:20:01,560 --> 03:20:03,560
council member questions

6364
03:20:03,892 --> 03:20:04,626
comments entertain a motion and

6365
03:20:04,626 --> 03:20:07,626
we'll start with Council member

6366
03:20:08,263 --> 03:20:09,300
Campbell Thank you.

6367
03:20:09,300 --> 03:20:09,331
Council PRESIDENT I'll be very

6368
03:20:09,331 --> 03:20:10,980
brief.

6369
03:20:10,980 --> 03:20:12,668
I just want to start by

6370
03:20:12,668 --> 03:20:13,635
thanking staff for all your

6371
03:20:13,635 --> 03:20:17,506
hard work on this and for your

6372
03:20:17,506 --> 03:20:18,207
presentation.

6373
03:20:18,207 --> 03:20:18,974
Long term plans to upgrade

6374
03:20:18,974 --> 03:20:21,974
Mission Bay Park are critical

6375
03:20:23,450 --> 03:20:27,160
for our aging park as it's been

6376
03:20:27,160 --> 03:20:27,716
environmentally degraded in

6377
03:20:27,716 --> 03:20:28,830
some areas partly due to its

6378
03:20:28,830 --> 03:20:30,830
heavy use.

6379
03:20:32,254 --> 03:20:32,921
It is very popular and it is

6380
03:20:32,921 --> 03:20:35,321
the largest manmade aquatic

6381
03:20:35,791 --> 03:20:39,391
park in America and possibly in

6382
03:20:40,596 --> 03:20:41,296
the world.

6383
03:20:41,296 --> 03:20:41,897
The public amenities will be

6384
03:20:41,897 --> 03:20:42,531
important to preserving

6385
03:20:42,531 --> 03:20:45,531
the park for residents and

6386
03:20:46,135 --> 03:20:46,802
visitors alike.

6387
03:20:46,802 --> 03:20:47,436
Mission Bay is one of

6388
03:20:47,436 --> 03:20:49,836
the city's most important

6389
03:20:50,906 --> 03:20:51,640
recreational environment and

6390
03:20:51,640 --> 03:20:54,400
environmental assets and taking

6391
03:20:55,644 --> 03:20:56,345
the proactive approach now will

6392
03:20:56,345 --> 03:20:57,790
help avoid larger maintenance

6393
03:20:57,790 --> 03:20:59,479
and environmental challenges in

6394
03:21:00,716 --> 03:21:01,483
the future.

6395
03:21:01,483 --> 03:21:02,117
So I would like to make

6396
03:21:02,117 --> 03:21:05,117
the motion to move staff's

6397
03:21:06,821 --> 03:21:07,623
recommendation and again thank

6398
03:21:07,623 --> 03:21:08,570
you so much for the good work.

6399
03:21:08,570 --> 03:21:08,724
>> All right.

6400
03:21:08,724 --> 03:21:09,358
We have by Councilmember

6401
03:21:09,358 --> 03:21:11,590
Campbell to move the staff

6402
03:21:11,590 --> 03:21:11,760
recommendation And since I have

6403
03:21:11,760 --> 03:21:14,697
the other part of Mission Bay

6404
03:21:14,697 --> 03:21:15,464
I'll make the second.

6405
03:21:15,464 --> 03:21:16,198
I had extensive comments at

6406
03:21:16,198 --> 03:21:16,832
the Environment Committee which

6407
03:21:16,832 --> 03:21:19,768
I will not repeat here in

6408
03:21:19,768 --> 03:21:20,369
the interest of time thank you

6409
03:21:20,369 --> 03:21:23,369
for the very good work.

6410
03:21:24,139 --> 03:21:25,700
This is a big deal to get to

6411
03:21:25,700 --> 03:21:25,307
this moment and thank you for

6412
03:21:25,307 --> 03:21:27,307
that.

6413
03:21:28,811 --> 03:21:29,611
Not anybody else in the life We

6414
03:21:29,611 --> 03:21:30,312
have a motion by Council member

6415
03:21:30,312 --> 03:21:33,682
Campbell I second by myself to

6416
03:21:33,682 --> 03:21:34,516
move the staff recommendation.

6417
03:21:34,516 --> 03:21:35,216
>> Please call the roll As far

6418
03:21:35,216 --> 03:21:38,216
as voting system please cast

6419
03:21:43,960 --> 03:21:44,760

6420
03:21:44,760 --> 03:21:45,361
unanimously 5 to 0 with Council

6421
03:21:45,361 --> 03:21:47,361
Member Councilor Campo,

6422
03:21:47,730 --> 03:21:48,397
Councilmember Von Wilpert and

6423
03:21:48,397 --> 03:21:49,980
Councilmember Foster absent.

6424
03:21:49,980 --> 03:21:49,465
Thank you, Council PRESIDENT.

6425
03:21:49,465 --> 03:21:49,831
All right.

6426
03:21:49,831 --> 03:21:51,667
Thank you.

6427
03:21:51,667 --> 03:21:52,368
So we're going to return item

6428
03:21:52,368 --> 03:21:53,350
to Hunter to staff because

6429
03:21:53,350 --> 03:21:56,350
we're going to lose quorum.

6430
03:21:57,273 --> 03:21:57,974
I apologize to the staff that

6431
03:21:57,974 --> 03:21:58,674
stuck around for that and I'm

6432
03:21:58,674 --> 03:22:02,144
going to ask my colleagues to

03:22:02,144 --> 03:22:02,945

tomorrow's agenda.

6439
03:22:12,255 --> 03:22:13,210
My apologies for that as well.

6440
03:22:13,210 --> 03:22:16,210
The council members respect and

6441
03:22:16,726 --> 03:22:17,293

First thank you.

6469
03:23:03,106 --> 03:23:03,539
Um it'll be nice to hear Bob

6470
03:23:03,539 --> 03:23:05,539
after myself.

6471
03:23:08,111 --> 03:23:08,811
Um, I uh it was a long week

6472
03:23:08,811 --> 03:23:12,411
last week and I hopefully I

6473
03:23:12,682 --> 03:23:13,716
learned a lot.

6474
03:23:13,716 --> 03:23:14,484
I learned that and use can be a

6475
03:23:14,484 --> 03:23:17,353
good source of revenue for

6476
03:23:17,353 --> 03:23:20,953
the city besides taxes that I

6477
03:23:22,158 --> 03:23:22,859
hope can be more implemented.

6478
03:23:22,859 --> 03:23:23,493
I've learned that Oakland and

6479
03:23:23,493 --> 03:23:26,950
all the major cities that

6480
03:23:26,950 --> 03:23:26,763
council personnel overall

6481
03:23:26,763 --> 03:23:27,497
operate last week they have

6482
03:23:27,497 --> 03:23:30,497
these revenue sources that they

6483
03:23:31,968 --> 03:23:32,235
can rely on but San Diego does

6484
03:23:32,235 --> 03:23:33,690
not.

6485
03:23:33,690 --> 03:23:36,172
Um really good luck what we can

6486
03:23:36,172 --> 03:23:36,872
be doing I still think we can

6487
03:23:36,872 --> 03:23:40,472
take a more broader view to

6488
03:23:40,742 --> 03:23:41,444
give some sort of picture of

6489
03:23:41,444 --> 03:23:44,948
what we can be working towards

6490
03:23:44,948 --> 03:23:45,781
and and make things into a 8 to

6491
03:23:45,781 --> 03:23:46,749
10 year plan instead of a 3 to

6492
03:23:46,749 --> 03:23:49,353
5 year plan And that way we can

6493
03:23:49,353 --> 03:23:49,886
be working on social services

6494
03:23:49,886 --> 03:23:52,286
Still it was really

6495
03:23:53,490 --> 03:23:54,223
disheartening to hear

6496
03:23:54,223 --> 03:23:54,791
the retaliation things that are

6497
03:23:54,791 --> 03:23:57,791
going on in the police

6498
03:23:58,962 --> 03:23:59,662
department and I think it's

6499
03:23:59,662 --> 03:24:00,396
indicative of what's also been

6500
03:24:00,396 --> 03:24:03,396
happening in the mayor's office

6501
03:24:03,833 --> 03:24:04,534
and I think it's an issue that

6502
03:24:04,534 --> 03:24:08,134
we really want to address here

6503
03:24:08,404 --> 03:24:09,105
in the city If we do, I think

6504
03:24:09,105 --> 03:24:09,672
we'd be doing something really

6505
03:24:09,672 --> 03:24:12,720
positive and we'd have

6506
03:24:12,608 --> 03:24:13,310
something to really be working

6507
03:24:13,310 --> 03:24:14,277
on together and wanting to do

6508
03:24:14,277 --> 03:24:18,247
better And I think it'd be help

6509
03:24:18,247 --> 03:24:18,981
helpful for ourselves to find

6510
03:24:18,981 --> 03:24:21,981
ways to address the retaliatory

6511
03:24:23,186 --> 03:24:23,853
things on a number of items and

6512
03:24:23,853 --> 03:24:26,853
including of course Andrea I

6513
03:24:27,457 --> 03:24:28,158
mean we've been talking about

6514
03:24:28,158 --> 03:24:28,925
recently I hope her situation

6515
03:24:28,925 --> 03:24:31,661
can be much more clearly

6516
03:24:31,661 --> 03:24:33,661
understood.

6517
03:24:36,832 --> 03:24:37,534
Um and with that um there's

6518
03:24:37,534 --> 03:24:38,501
other stuff there's a lot of

6519
03:24:38,501 --> 03:24:41,738
other stuff I hope we can be

6520
03:24:41,738 --> 03:24:42,405
working on making the words

6521
03:24:42,405 --> 03:24:44,805
biometric technology okay to

6522
03:24:46,275 --> 03:24:46,910
say in public We're not afraid

6523
03:24:46,910 --> 03:24:47,577
of those conversations And

6524
03:24:47,577 --> 03:24:50,577
Oakland Oh my gosh they're

6525
03:24:51,810 --> 03:24:51,715
doing it again.

6526
03:24:51,715 --> 03:24:52,215
They're really working on

6527
03:24:52,215 --> 03:24:54,215
technology issues.

6528
03:24:55,719 --> 03:24:56,152
People really check out what

6529
03:24:56,152 --> 03:24:56,820
they're doing.

6530
03:24:56,820 --> 03:24:57,521
