00:03:57,761 --> 00:04:02,561
my name is is christine and I'm the

60
00:04:03,761 --> 00:04:06,761
executive director for sustainable san

61
00:04:06,761 --> 00:04:11,561
mateo county. Smc for short. We are a

62
00:04:11,761 --> 00:04:15,361
local non-profit and our mission really

63
00:04:17,701 --> 00:04:19,701
is to accelerate the sustainability

64
00:04:19,701 --> 00:04:21,701
adoption throughout the county and

65
00:04:21,701 --> 00:04:25,901
through a system wide lens. Our key

66
00:04:27,701 --> 00:04:29,701
stakeholders are the government, the

67
00:04:29,701 --> 00:04:32,701
business community and non-profit and

68
00:04:33,701 --> 00:04:35,701
academia and members of the public. As

69
00:04:35,701 --> 00:04:38,701
you know the issues around sustainability

70
00:04:38,701 --> 00:04:41,701
are complex and will require partnerships

71
00:04:41,701 --> 00:04:45,701
from all the key stakeholders to move us

72
00:04:45,701 --> 00:04:49,701
forward. In terms of our program, those

73
00:04:49,701 --> 00:04:52,701
include the data driven research based

74
00:04:52,701 --> 00:04:56,301
indicators report. We have an annual

75
00:04:56,701 --> 00:05:00,301
awards program to recognize our local

76
00:05:05,701 --> 00:05:09,901
heroes and interested in the ideas to

77
00:05:18,641 --> 00:05:20,641
help us improve. Even though we are

78
00:05:20,641 --> 00:05:25,441
small, we have a big existence and over

79
00:05:27,641 --> 00:05:30,641
25 years old and we rely on our

80
00:05:30,641 --> 00:05:34,841
volunteers who have been here since the

81
00:05:35,641 --> 00:05:39,641
beginning and we would like to be able to

82
00:05:39,641 --> 00:05:42,641
include the community going forward.

83
00:05:42,641 --> 00:05:44,641
with our current board members, we have a

84
00:05:44,641 --> 00:05:49,441
few past mayor's on board. That was kind

85
00:05:49,641 --> 00:05:52,641
of interesting. Necessary next few

86
00:05:56,641 --> 00:06:01,641
slides, I want to give you an example of

87
00:06:01,641 --> 00:06:06,441
the type of works in the community which

88
00:06:06,641 --> 00:06:10,241
include local campaigns and which we

89
00:06:13,581 --> 00:06:17,181
joined with the fossil free buildings

90
00:06:17,581 --> 00:06:20,581
initiated by menlo spark. The goal is to

91
00:06:20,581 --> 00:06:23,581
bring people to the table to discuss

92
00:06:23,581 --> 00:06:25,581
issues and then really together exchange

93
00:06:25,581 --> 00:06:28,581
information and move forward with

94
00:06:29,581 --> 00:06:32,581
solutions. That's another picture. We

95
00:06:50,581 --> 00:06:53,581
have the indicators report that provides

96
00:06:53,581 --> 00:06:57,181
the cities benchmarking and a policy

97
00:06:57,581 --> 00:06:59,981
development and implementation by

98
00:07:00,581 --> 00:07:02,981
basically tracking over 40 key

99
00:07:03,581 --> 00:07:05,581
performance indicators around

100
00:07:05,581 --> 00:07:08,581
sustainability. I mentioned our annual

101
00:07:10,581 --> 00:07:13,581
awards program that is to recognize

102
00:07:13,581 --> 00:07:17,781
achievement from local heroes here in san

103
00:07:18,581 --> 00:07:21,581
mateo county. We recognize individuals

104
00:07:26,581 --> 00:07:30,181
and organizations and the winners are

105
00:07:31,581 --> 00:07:33,581
identified by our panel of judges and

106
00:07:33,581 --> 00:07:35,581
that is done with the american institute

107
00:07:35,581 --> 00:07:38,581
of architects. Here are a few images of

108
00:07:38,581 --> 00:07:43,381
some of our past awards events. And as

109
00:07:44,581 --> 00:07:48,581
you can see we just celebrated our 20th

110
00:07:48,581 --> 00:07:51,581
anniversary a few weeks ago and that's

111
00:07:51,581 --> 00:07:53,581
exciting as well.

112
00:07:53,581 --> 00:07:57,181
onto the sustainability ideas bank, that

113
00:07:57,581 --> 00:08:01,581
is our newest initiative and that will be

114
00:08:01,581 --> 00:08:02,581
about compiling sustainability solutions

115
00:08:02,581 --> 00:08:05,581
that have been implemented in other

116
00:08:05,581 --> 00:08:08,581
places and that are proven to work. And

117
00:08:08,581 --> 00:08:13,381
by that, we really hope to make to

118
00:08:13,521 --> 00:08:16,521
accelerate sustainability and to really

119
00:08:17,521 --> 00:08:20,521
enable especially cities and businesses

120
00:08:20,521 --> 00:08:23,521
to implement sustainability measures and

121
00:08:23,521 --> 00:08:24,521
policies at scale. We are really excited

122
00:08:24,521 --> 00:08:28,521
to share that we have secured funding for

123
00:08:28,521 --> 00:08:32,521
the pilot fees. That is launching. And

124
00:08:32,521 --> 00:08:36,521
of course to do all of this, we rely on

125
00:08:36,521 --> 00:08:38,521
the support of our local cities because I

126
00:08:38,521 --> 00:08:41,521
do want to point out that we are not

127
00:08:41,521 --> 00:08:44,521
affiliated in anyway nor do we get

128
00:08:44,521 --> 00:08:47,521
funding from the counties office of

129
00:08:47,521 --> 00:08:51,121

00:12:10,341 --> 00:12:11,341

>> any opposed? All items are approved

192
00:12:15,281 --> 00:12:17,281
except items 6 and 15.

193
00:12:20,281 --> 00:12:22,281
>> on item no. 6.

194
00:12:27,281 --> 00:12:31,481
>> san mateo county float and sea level.

195
00:12:33,281 --> 00:12:36,881
>> we just wanted to see you.

196
00:12:37,281 --> 00:12:38,281
>> thank you.

197
00:12:38,281 --> 00:12:42,481
>> with that, do we have any questions

198
00:12:43,281 --> 00:12:45,281
for mr. Patterson?

199
00:12:56,281 --> 00:13:00,281
>> he's in a big hurry to get out of here.

200
00:13:00,281 --> 00:13:03,281
>> how does sea level begin?

201
00:13:06,281 --> 00:13:09,881
>> it begins with the ice age.

202
00:13:12,281 --> 00:13:13,221
>>

203
00:13:13,221 --> 00:13:14,221
[ laughter ]

204
00:13:14,221 --> 00:13:15,221
>> all in favor say, "aye".

205
00:13:15,221 --> 00:13:16,221
>> aye.

206
00:13:16,221 --> 00:13:19,221
>> any opposed? Now we move to the last

207
00:13:19,221 --> 00:13:23,421
item. Okay. We will take item no. 15.

208
00:13:38,221 --> 00:13:40,221
that is authorize the mayor to send a

209
00:13:40,221 --> 00:13:44,221
letter from the city council opposing the

210
00:13:44,221 --> 00:13:48,421
senate bill 50. Which is a bill that

211
00:14:01,221 --> 00:14:03,221
mandates heights and densities along

212
00:14:03,221 --> 00:14:06,821
corridors. I know staff has more

213
00:14:07,221 --> 00:14:12,221
information on it if we need to. I know

214
00:14:12,221 --> 00:14:15,161
deputy mayor wanted to say a few words

215
00:14:15,161 --> 00:14:18,161
and council member bonilla as well and

216
00:14:18,161 --> 00:14:21,161
council member rodriguez and goethals.

217
00:14:21,161 --> 00:14:23,161
what the heck, you might as well join the

218
00:14:23,161 --> 00:14:24,161
party.

219
00:14:24,161 --> 00:14:25,161
>> sure.

220
00:14:25,161 --> 00:14:27,561
>> okay, take it away.

221
00:14:30,161 --> 00:14:31,161
>>

222
00:14:31,161 --> 00:14:33,161
>> deputy mayor maureen freschet: thank

223
00:14:33,161 --> 00:14:37,961
you, mayor. As far as sb 50. The public

224
00:14:40,161 --> 00:14:43,161
will need to know the impacts. S. B.

225
00:14:43,161 --> 00:14:46,761
will be the most controversial senate

226
00:14:47,161 --> 00:14:50,161
bill of 2019 because it requires

227
00:14:53,161 --> 00:14:56,761
california to override our processes and

228
00:15:03,161 --> 00:15:06,761
height districts. It does not provide

229
00:15:07,161 --> 00:15:09,161
for housing and those in san mateo and

230
00:15:09,161 --> 00:15:13,101
that san mateo is punitive and san mateo

231
00:15:13,101 --> 00:15:17,101
has been at the forefront of these

232
00:15:17,101 --> 00:15:21,101
policies as well as the railroad corridor

233
00:15:21,101 --> 00:15:25,101
plan that we pass in 2005 and the many

234
00:15:25,101 --> 00:15:26,101
transient projects that are already built

235
00:15:26,101 --> 00:15:30,901
and those in the projects and even those

236
00:15:31,101 --> 00:15:34,701
in our pipeline. Under s. B. 50,

237
00:15:40,101 --> 00:15:43,701
properties along the corridor can be

238
00:15:44,101 --> 00:15:46,101
established for housing with our zoning

239
00:15:46,101 --> 00:15:49,101
and height limits and significantly

240
00:15:49,101 --> 00:15:52,101
decreases zoning for parking. I think

241
00:15:52,101 --> 00:15:55,101
these zoning changes can create negative

242
00:15:55,101 --> 00:15:58,101
impacts for those already suffering from

243
00:15:58,101 --> 00:16:01,101
parking supplies such as north central

244
00:16:01,101 --> 00:16:04,101
and can change the single family

245
00:16:04,101 --> 00:16:07,701
neighborhoods. While we all have single

246
00:16:13,410 --> 00:16:16,410
jobs and balancing, senate bill is a one

247
00:16:16,410 --> 00:16:20,241
for all thought less approach. I have

248
00:16:22,410 --> 00:16:25,410
often required regional resolutions and

249
00:16:29,410 --> 00:16:32,410
how work on providing affordable housing

250
00:16:32,410 --> 00:16:35,410
and other issues. This requires the full

251
00:16:35,410 --> 00:16:38,410
participation of impacted cities. In the

252
00:16:38,410 --> 00:16:42,410
case of s. B. 50 we have a state mandate

253
00:16:42,410 --> 00:16:46,241
that will change our city without our

254
00:16:48,410 --> 00:16:51,410
input. I find this particularly

255
00:16:53,410 --> 00:16:55,410
disturbing with the idea of having all of

256
00:16:55,410 --> 00:16:57,410
our residents for the vision and

257
00:16:57,410 --> 00:17:00,410
inclusion in a future they want to see.

258
00:17:00,410 --> 00:17:04,241
while the meaning of s. B. 50 is

259
00:17:06,410 --> 00:17:09,410
written, we will no longer have the

260
00:17:09,410 --> 00:17:11,410
autonomy that is for our future. There

261
00:17:11,410 --> 00:17:14,410
is so much left to interpretation. I

262
00:17:14,410 --> 00:17:17,410
believe we have the obligation to

263
00:17:17,410 --> 00:17:20,410
strongly oppose this legislation on

264
00:17:22,410 --> 00:17:25,641
behalf of our constituency and including

265
00:17:27,410 --> 00:17:30,410
changes along with our participation with

266
00:17:30,410 --> 00:17:34,241
any impact on san mateo. I sure

267
00:17:36,410 --> 00:17:39,410
appreciate mayor papan's lead on this and

268
00:17:39,410 --> 00:17:42,641
would forward the letter to our

269
00:17:44,410 --> 00:17:45,410
legislators.

270
00:17:45,410 --> 00:17:48,410
>> mayor diane papan: council member

271
00:17:49,410 --> 00:17:50,410
bonilla?

272
00:17:50,410 --> 00:17:51,410
>> former mayor rick bonilla: sure,

273
00:17:51,410 --> 00:17:53,410
while I agree with a lot of what maureen

274
00:17:53,410 --> 00:17:55,410
has said, I would take a more cautious

275
00:17:55,410 --> 00:17:59,241
approach. S. B. 50 is like she said,

276
00:18:00,410 --> 00:18:02,410
well-meaning, well-intentioned. It seeks

277
00:18:02,410 --> 00:18:05,410
to build housing that we desperately need

278
00:18:05,410 --> 00:18:07,410
in the whole state, although there are

279
00:18:07,410 --> 00:18:09,410
certain variations about which part of

280
00:18:09,410 --> 00:18:13,241
the state and the bay area has

281
00:18:15,981 --> 00:18:18,981
done with their efforts to affordable

282
00:18:18,981 --> 00:18:22,981
housing. And san mateo are no slackers in

283
00:18:22,981 --> 00:18:23,981
terms of building housing, but the fact

284
00:18:23,981 --> 00:18:26,981
remains that we have a huge housing

285
00:18:26,981 --> 00:18:29,981
imbalances. Don't get me wrong from the

286
00:18:29,981 --> 00:18:34,181
start. I'm not purporting that we should

287
00:18:36,981 --> 00:18:38,981
either support or oppose. Let me talk for

288
00:18:38,981 --> 00:18:42,981
a second about that. I believe that this

289
00:18:42,981 --> 00:18:44,981
is new legislation and this is only

290
00:18:44,981 --> 00:18:46,981
passed one of several committees it needs

291
00:18:46,981 --> 00:18:51,781
to pass through and it is recognized that

292
00:18:52,981 --> 00:18:54,981
it needs more amending. This is an

293
00:18:54,981 --> 00:18:57,981
unfinished product that is going to

294
00:18:57,981 --> 00:18:59,981
require more refining before it's ready

295
00:18:59,981 --> 00:19:01,981
for anybody to really say support or

296
00:19:01,981 --> 00:19:03,981
oppose. I think this is the kind of

297
00:19:03,981 --> 00:19:05,981
situation where if you are smart, you

298
00:19:05,981 --> 00:19:08,981
don't try to cut your chance to

299
00:19:08,981 --> 00:19:11,981
participate in the process off early by

300
00:19:11,981 --> 00:19:14,921
taking a hard and fast position. Instead

301
00:19:14,921 --> 00:19:17,921
you say, we see the pluses and minuses

302
00:19:17,921 --> 00:19:19,921
and would like to see it amended further

303
00:19:19,921 --> 00:19:24,921
and here is how we would like to see it

304
00:19:24,921 --> 00:19:26,921
amended. With that standing, we can

305
00:19:26,921 --> 00:19:28,921
support it if amended properly using the

306
00:19:28,921 --> 00:19:30,921
considerations that we outlined in our

307
00:19:30,921 --> 00:19:31,921
letter, then perhaps we could supported

308
00:19:31,921 --> 00:19:35,921
it at some point. So, that's kind of

309
00:19:35,921 --> 00:19:37,921
what I'm thinking. And I would like to

310
00:19:37,921 --> 00:19:38,921
see what other opinions council members

311
00:19:38,921 --> 00:19:39,921
may have.

312
00:19:39,921 --> 00:19:42,921
>> mayor diane papan: okay. Council

313
00:19:49,921 --> 00:19:50,921
member rodriguez?

314
00:19:50,921 --> 00:19:53,921
>> okay, 1st I would like to say that I

315
00:19:53,921 --> 00:19:57,921
acknowledge and agree with the goals of

316
00:19:57,921 --> 00:19:59,921
s. B. 50 and that our region as a whole

317
00:19:59,921 --> 00:20:01,921
has a significant housing shortage and we

318
00:20:01,921 --> 00:20:05,921
need to do all we can as a region to

319
00:20:05,921 --> 00:20:08,921
build more housing especially affordable

320
00:20:08,921 --> 00:20:12,861
housing. However I do not support s. B.

321
00:20:12,861 --> 00:20:15,861
50 and I wanted to take a couple moments

322
00:20:15,861 --> 00:20:18,861
to explain my position on this. I believe

323
00:20:18,861 --> 00:20:21,861
as a locally elected council member, our

324
00:20:21,861 --> 00:20:24,861
job is to strike a delicate balance

325
00:20:24,861 --> 00:20:27,861
between making sure that we act

326
00:20:27,861 --> 00:20:29,861
responsibly to ensure that we are

327
00:20:29,861 --> 00:20:32,861
building and planning for our fair share

328
00:20:32,861 --> 00:20:34,861
of the regions housing, but at the same

329
00:20:34,861 --> 00:20:37,861
time, we must do everything we can to

330
00:20:37,861 --> 00:20:40,861
protect the quality of life in our

331
00:20:40,861 --> 00:20:42,861
neighborhoods and existing residents by

332
00:20:42,861 --> 00:20:45,861
building in a manner that makes the most

333
00:20:45,861 --> 00:20:47,861
sense given the unique challenges and

334
00:20:47,861 --> 00:20:50,861
constraints of our city . According to

335
00:20:50,861 --> 00:20:55,610
our planning department, I mean, I will

336
00:20:56,861 --> 00:20:58,861
spend a couple moments talking about what

337
00:20:58,861 --> 00:21:00,861
was in the letter because I think it's

338
00:21:00,861 --> 00:21:05,610
important. In the last 5 years we have

339
00:21:06,861 --> 00:21:09,861
build or -entitled to build 300,000

340
00:21:10,861 --> 00:21:13,801
units and in the pipeline to be built.

341
00:21:13,801 --> 00:21:15,801
once those houses will be built that will

342
00:21:15,801 --> 00:21:19,801
be an increase in housing supply in san

343
00:21:19,801 --> 00:21:22,801
mateo of over 11%. That is roughly the

344
00:21:22,801 --> 00:21:27,100
housing supply of the size of atherton's

345
00:21:29,801 --> 00:21:33,801
total housing supply in the last 5 years.

346
00:21:33,801 --> 00:21:39,201
but the balance part of this, is that we

347
00:21:39,801 --> 00:21:42,801
also are experiencing some stark quality

348
00:21:42,801 --> 00:21:45,801
of life challenges and this is where the

349
00:21:45,801 --> 00:21:50,100
balanced part comes in. The windows of

350
00:21:56,801 --> 00:22:01,100
rush hour traffic are expanding and some

351
00:22:01,801 --> 00:22:03,801
areas are facing severe parking shortages

352
00:22:03,801 --> 00:22:07,401
and this is facing neighbors after

353
00:22:08,801 --> 00:22:10,801
neighbors with bandoned vehicles calling

354
00:22:10,801 --> 00:22:12,741
our police department reaching 5,000

355
00:22:12,741 --> 00:22:16,741
calls per year. There is not an increased

356
00:22:16,741 --> 00:22:19,741
in bandoned vehicles. This is just

357
00:22:19,741 --> 00:22:22,741
neighbors fighting neighbors because they

358
00:22:22,741 --> 00:22:25,741
can't find parking and nobody wants to

359
00:22:25,741 --> 00:22:30,541
leave their parking once they find it and

360
00:22:31,741 --> 00:22:34,741
we see trash cans used to reserve parking

361
00:22:34,741 --> 00:22:39,741
spots. I think s. B. 50 is going to take

362
00:22:39,741 --> 00:22:42,741
away the tools that manage these quality

363
00:22:42,741 --> 00:22:46,341
of life challenges. For an example,

364
00:22:47,741 --> 00:22:50,741
deputy mayor freschet mentioned in job

365
00:22:50,741 --> 00:22:53,741
rich areas that are transit poor, parking

366
00:22:53,741 --> 00:22:55,741
minimums are going to be lowered and

367
00:22:55,741 --> 00:22:57,741
that's only going to make the situation

368
00:22:57,741 --> 00:23:02,541
worse than it is right now. S. B. 50

369
00:23:10,741 --> 00:23:15,541
treats san mateo the way they would treat

370
00:23:17,681 --> 00:23:20,681
huntington beach and other areas. I

371
00:23:20,681 --> 00:23:24,881
don't think this one size fits all

372
00:23:26,681 --> 00:23:30,881
approach will work. I also have some

373
00:23:32,681 --> 00:23:33,681
concerns for historic neighborhoods such

374
00:23:33,681 --> 00:23:37,681
as historic park that will only take a

375
00:23:37,681 --> 00:23:39,681
couple enterprising developer to acquire

376
00:23:39,681 --> 00:23:43,681
one or two adjoining small bungalows and

377
00:23:43,681 --> 00:23:46,681
before you know it, it could change the

378
00:23:46,681 --> 00:23:48,681
complete neighborhood. That's why I'm

379
00:23:48,681 --> 00:23:49,681
against s. B. 50.

380
00:23:49,681 --> 00:23:52,681
>> okay, thank you. Council member

381
00:23:52,681 --> 00:23:53,681
goethals?

382
00:23:53,681 --> 00:23:54,681
>> council member goethals: thank you,

383
00:23:54,681 --> 00:23:57,681
mayor. I think my fellow colleagues have

384
00:23:57,681 --> 00:23:59,681
said it quite well that we agree with the

385
00:23:59,681 --> 00:24:02,681
principles of s. B. 50 and housing is a

386
00:24:02,681 --> 00:24:04,681
critical issue for so many people in the

387
00:24:04,681 --> 00:24:07,681
bay area with our jobs housing

388
00:24:07,681 --> 00:24:11,281
imbalances. We agree with the principal

389
00:24:11,681 --> 00:24:13,621
with which the legislators tried to

390
00:24:13,621 --> 00:24:17,821
approach this issue, but they have sort

391
00:24:19,621 --> 00:24:22,621
of usurped the local city councils jobs.

392
00:24:22,621 --> 00:24:26,621
our job is land use, our job is to make

393
00:24:26,621 --> 00:24:29,621
our community what our residents want it

394
00:24:29,621 --> 00:24:32,621
to be. So that is something that s. B.

395
00:24:32,621 --> 00:24:35,621
50 violates and we want to make sure that

396
00:24:35,621 --> 00:24:38,621
we retain that local control that is

397
00:24:38,621 --> 00:24:40,621
critical to communities like ours. I

398
00:24:40,621 --> 00:24:44,621
think that rick is right about one thing

399
00:24:44,621 --> 00:24:46,621
which is that the blood sport of

400
00:24:46,621 --> 00:24:49,621
washington and the blood sport of

401
00:24:49,621 --> 00:24:52,621
sacramento is to amend bills constantly

402
00:24:52,621 --> 00:24:54,621
and get people to take positions and end

403
00:24:54,621 --> 00:24:57,621
up on both sides of it based on

404
00:24:57,621 --> 00:25:00,621
amendments that are made. I

405
00:25:02,621 --> 00:25:04,621
do think at a minimum we should talk

406
00:25:04,621 --> 00:25:09,421
about it so there is no confusion going

407
00:25:09,621 --> 00:25:14,421
forward. I don't know that we need to

408
00:25:23,561 --> 00:25:27,561
spell out all the amendments we want

409
00:25:27,561 --> 00:25:30,561
because I don't know how many members

410
00:25:30,561 --> 00:25:34,561
could vote for it, and really, we have to

411
00:25:34,561 --> 00:25:37,561
be more responsible in what san mateo is

412
00:25:37,561 --> 00:25:40,561
doing. I don't think we have turned down

413
00:25:40,561 --> 00:25:42,561
any housing units except for one in the

414
00:25:42,561 --> 00:25:45,561
last number of decades. So san mateo is

415
00:25:45,561 --> 00:25:49,561
trying to address this issue and I hope

416
00:25:49,561 --> 00:25:50,561
we continue moving forward. I would agree

417
00:25:50,561 --> 00:25:55,361
with the one proposal that rick had which

418
00:25:55,561 --> 00:26:00,561
was that we limit this to s. B. 50 in

419
00:26:00,561 --> 00:26:02,561
its current form. Certainly we agree on

420
00:26:02,561 --> 00:26:06,561
all of its principals and the way this is

421
00:26:06,561 --> 00:26:10,561
written. I don't want to get into the

422
00:26:10,561 --> 00:26:13,501
amendments and whether one questions the

423
00:26:13,501 --> 00:26:17,501
good things that might be added to it or

424
00:26:17,501 --> 00:26:20,501
bad things that might be added to it.

425
00:26:20,501 --> 00:26:22,501
those are my $0.02.

426
00:26:22,501 --> 00:26:25,501
>> mayor diane papan: let me weigh in a

427
00:26:25,501 --> 00:26:29,501
little bit. I think the legislature is

428
00:26:29,501 --> 00:26:33,501
trying to do something about the housing

429
00:26:33,501 --> 00:26:38,301
imbalances. But it can't make me do this

430
00:26:39,501 --> 00:26:43,701
by amendment. I think the local control

431
00:26:47,501 --> 00:26:51,501
will go away. And I think each individual

432
00:26:51,501 --> 00:26:53,501
locality has constraints and those

433
00:26:53,501 --> 00:26:55,501
constraints might be that you have water

434
00:26:55,501 --> 00:26:57,501
such as we do, we have a lot of open

435
00:26:57,501 --> 00:27:01,701
space and we have topography that we

436
00:27:08,501 --> 00:27:11,501
can't take into account. And those that

437
00:27:11,501 --> 00:27:14,501
tell me, don't reject it, tell me how you

438
00:27:14,501 --> 00:27:18,501
can amend it. I don't know how you can

439
00:27:18,501 --> 00:27:20,501
usurp land use from local control because

440
00:27:20,501 --> 00:27:23,501
so much has to be balanced at the local

441
00:27:23,501 --> 00:27:26,501
level whether that is physical,

442
00:27:27,501 --> 00:27:29,501
topography, open space, the fiscal

443
00:27:29,501 --> 00:27:32,501
constraints that might come with it, how

444
00:27:32,501 --> 00:27:36,501
do you finance this structure that might

445
00:27:36,501 --> 00:27:38,501
be needed, how do you take into account

446
00:27:38,501 --> 00:27:42,501
what you define as a jobs rich area and

447
00:27:42,501 --> 00:27:47,901
how do you impede in the equal. I don't

448
00:27:52,501 --> 00:27:54,501
think there is an answer. At this point,

449
00:27:54,501 --> 00:27:57,501
I don't see land use being done at the

450
00:27:57,501 --> 00:28:00,501
state. I just don't see it. I have heard

451
00:28:00,501 --> 00:28:05,301
the author of bill say, well, the state

452
00:28:05,501 --> 00:28:07,901
controls education. That's comparing

453
00:28:12,441 --> 00:28:16,641
apples to oranges. My remarks are dove

454
00:28:24,441 --> 00:28:28,410
tailed. Does anyone have anything else?

455
00:28:28,441 --> 00:28:31,441
okay, let's open up for public comment.

456
00:28:31,441 --> 00:28:35,641
if anyone has anything from open comment

457
00:28:36,441 --> 00:28:39,441
and then we'll take the vote.

458
00:28:39,441 --> 00:28:40,441
>>

459
00:28:40,441 --> 00:28:41,441
public speaker: good evening, mayor

460
00:28:41,441 --> 00:28:44,441
papan, council members, I have to tell

461
00:28:44,441 --> 00:28:48,441
you I'm very proud of san mateo. San

462
00:28:48,441 --> 00:28:50,441
mateo has been a leader in affordable

463
00:28:50,441 --> 00:28:52,441
housing and I think it's close to 4,000

464
00:28:52,441 --> 00:28:56,441
units as we count the bay meadows one

465
00:28:56,441 --> 00:29:00,441
laid out in the late 90s. We have done a

466
00:29:00,441 --> 00:29:02,441
great job. I'm here to say that I think

467
00:29:02,441 --> 00:29:06,441
this letter that you are sending is well

468
00:29:06,441 --> 00:29:11,241
drafted, but I think you need to change.

469
00:29:12,381 --> 00:29:17,181
the change poll was in san francisco that

470
00:29:17,381 --> 00:29:21,581
61% of californians were in favor of it

471
00:29:24,381 --> 00:29:27,381
and 41% of the republicans were in favor

472
00:29:27,381 --> 00:29:32,381
of it. This is not led by a district by

473
00:29:32,381 --> 00:29:35,381
the leaders. And it's much harder to

474
00:29:35,381 --> 00:29:40,181
give up authority than to get it. So

475
00:29:40,381 --> 00:29:43,381
watch out because people are going to

476
00:29:43,381 --> 00:29:44,381
like it.

477
00:29:44,381 --> 00:29:47,381
I disagree mildly in two areas. I think

478
00:29:47,381 --> 00:29:49,381
if I were writing the letter and my

479
00:29:49,381 --> 00:29:52,981
experience with legislation is that after

480
00:29:55,381 --> 00:29:59,381
the word "oppose", I would put "unless

481
00:29:59,381 --> 00:30:03,381
amended" because that does give you some

482
00:30:03,381 --> 00:30:04,381
leverage. And actually, weiner is going

483
00:30:04,381 --> 00:30:07,381
to be in san mateo county thursday night.

484
00:30:07,381 --> 00:30:11,381
you can talk to him at the central

485
00:30:11,381 --> 00:30:16,181
committee. I just got an e-mail that he

486
00:30:22,321 --> 00:30:24,321
was going to be there.

487
00:30:24,321 --> 00:30:27,321
>> he can come here. I will make time.

488
00:30:27,321 --> 00:30:31,521
>> the only thing I don't disagree with

489
00:30:32,321 --> 00:30:35,321
is on the issue how much it's going to

490
00:30:35,321 --> 00:30:38,321
change san mateo because we have some

491
00:30:38,321 --> 00:30:42,321
areas that are higher than s. B. 50. And

492
00:30:42,321 --> 00:30:45,321
quite frankly, I don't believe someone is

493
00:30:45,321 --> 00:30:50,721
going to buy 2-3 lots in san mateo and

494
00:30:53,321 --> 00:30:57,521
pay the taxes. The development, there is

495
00:31:01,321 --> 00:31:05,321
so much below market value. I would not

496
00:31:05,321 --> 00:31:11,321
be in favor of that and nor would I fight

497
00:31:11,321 --> 00:31:14,261
it. Let's send that senate bill 50 that

498
00:31:14,261 --> 00:31:16,261
it recognizes that we are different from

499
00:31:16,261 --> 00:31:19,261
everybody else and let's not let cities

500
00:31:19,261 --> 00:31:21,261
that developed employers with 25,000

501
00:31:21,261 --> 00:31:23,261
employees and build very little housing.

502
00:31:23,261 --> 00:31:25,261
let's not let them off the hook. They are

503
00:31:25,261 --> 00:31:29,261
the ones creating all of our traffic. If

504
00:31:29,261 --> 00:31:32,261
you don't believe me, come up 280 in the

505
00:31:32,261 --> 00:31:34,261
evening and see where it starts. Thank

506
00:31:34,261 --> 00:31:36,261
you.

507
00:31:38,261 --> 00:31:41,261
>> next speaker is nathan hams.

508
00:31:52,261 --> 00:31:55,261
public speaker: good evening, council

509
00:31:56,261 --> 00:31:59,261
members. I'm going to take a slightly

510
00:31:59,261 --> 00:32:02,261
different approach and talk about climate

511
00:32:02,261 --> 00:32:04,261
change aspect. I have been concerned

512
00:32:04,261 --> 00:32:06,261
about climate change for a long time and

513
00:32:06,261 --> 00:32:09,261
it's got to be really hard for someone

514
00:32:09,261 --> 00:32:12,201
who is concerned about climate change and

515
00:32:12,201 --> 00:32:17,601
look at the news, there is the typhoon in

516
00:32:20,201 --> 00:32:23,201
east africa and the flooding in the

517
00:32:23,201 --> 00:32:26,201
midwest and a president who is denying

518
00:32:26,201 --> 00:32:31,100
this is even an issue. It's scary to

519
00:32:33,201 --> 00:32:35,201
what is happening today and what is the

520
00:32:35,201 --> 00:32:37,201
prediction for the future. I should be

521
00:32:37,201 --> 00:32:41,401
thinking about having kids in the next

522
00:32:42,201 --> 00:32:44,201
couple years and I don't really want to

523
00:32:44,201 --> 00:32:47,201
have them. I don't know if the

524
00:32:47,201 --> 00:32:49,201
projections and the human dislocation

525
00:32:49,201 --> 00:32:52,201
that might happen as a result of these

526
00:32:52,201 --> 00:32:54,201
changes, is that the type of world that

527
00:32:54,201 --> 00:32:57,201
we should be bringing children in?

528
00:32:57,201 --> 00:33:00,201
that's my own personal opinion by the

529
00:33:00,201 --> 00:33:02,201
way, and everyone is entitled to their

530
00:33:02,201 --> 00:33:04,201
own evaluation about this. But it is

531
00:33:04,201 --> 00:33:08,401
something that weighs very heavily on me.

532
00:33:09,201 --> 00:33:11,201
the last attempt to do climate

533
00:33:11,201 --> 00:33:13,141
legislation at the federal level was in

534
00:33:13,141 --> 00:33:17,141
2009. So e in the last 10 years nothing

535
00:33:17,141 --> 00:33:19,141
has been done to address climate change

536
00:33:19,141 --> 00:33:23,141
at the federal level, and the latest

537
00:33:23,141 --> 00:33:25,141
report says that we have 12 years to

538
00:33:25,141 --> 00:33:29,141
really bend the curve on emissions. I

539
00:33:29,141 --> 00:33:32,741
really encourage the city council members

540
00:33:33,141 --> 00:33:36,141
and every policy member at every level to

541
00:33:36,141 --> 00:33:38,141
address this issue as the last best

542
00:33:38,141 --> 00:33:42,141
attempt to address this issue. You may

543
00:33:42,141 --> 00:33:44,141
equitable with the details of s. B. 50

544
00:33:44,141 --> 00:33:48,141
about the ways it might undermine your

545
00:33:48,141 --> 00:33:52,141
control overland use, but I think this is

546
00:33:52,141 --> 00:33:56,341
our last best attempt to reiterate and

547
00:33:58,141 --> 00:34:01,741
reorient our culture and reorient our

548
00:34:04,141 --> 00:34:07,141
upward trajectory on upward emissions.

549
00:34:07,141 --> 00:34:11,341
the report says that california is making

550
00:34:18,810 --> 00:34:21,681
progress on reducing emissions. I would

551
00:34:27,810 --> 00:34:30,810
strongly ask you not to oppose this bill.

552
00:34:30,810 --> 00:34:33,810
this is a serious issue. We need to

553
00:34:33,810 --> 00:34:36,810
solve it, and I believe this is our last

554
00:34:36,810 --> 00:34:38,810
best attempt to solve it. Thank you.

555
00:34:38,810 --> 00:34:40,810
don't let it slip away.

556
00:34:40,810 --> 00:34:43,681
>> thank you, mr. Chen. Clerk next

557
00:34:56,810 --> 00:34:58,481
speaker is thomas heiser.

558
00:34:59,810 --> 00:35:00,810
>>

559
00:35:00,810 --> 00:35:02,810
public speaker: thank you, I'm going to

560
00:35:02,810 --> 00:35:05,681
talk about the largest single generator

561
00:35:07,810 --> 00:35:10,810
of greenhouse gas emissions in southern

562
00:35:10,810 --> 00:35:13,210
california is vehicles and larger that

563
00:35:13,210 --> 00:35:15,210
any other single

564
00:35:19,210 --> 00:35:23,821
category, and the most report I have read

565
00:35:26,210 --> 00:35:29,210
is lengthening the commute. If you watch

566
00:35:29,210 --> 00:35:31,210
the traffic eastbound in the evening for

567
00:35:31,210 --> 00:35:34,210
everyone that works on the peninsula and

568
00:35:34,210 --> 00:35:37,210
can't afford to live here because

569
00:35:37,210 --> 00:35:41,821
relative to the job growth in the last 20

570
00:35:43,210 --> 00:35:46,621
years, that's where these emissions are

571
00:35:53,210 --> 00:35:57,221
coming from. There are going to have

572
00:36:02,210 --> 00:36:06,210
been some decisions to be made about

573
00:36:06,210 --> 00:36:07,210
where these panels are going to be. We

574
00:36:07,210 --> 00:36:11,210
have to take as much responsibility about

575
00:36:11,210 --> 00:36:15,221
what we are doing locally. Lastly said,

576
00:36:15,961 --> 00:36:18,961
I'm in support of s. B. 50. That is

577
00:36:18,961 --> 00:36:21,961
probably a lost cause on my part. I do

578
00:36:21,961 --> 00:36:26,161
want to say I saw the draft

579
00:36:28,961 --> 00:36:32,561
to the letter. I'm confused under .3

580
00:36:33,961 --> 00:36:37,961
where it talks about the constraints and

581
00:36:37,961 --> 00:36:41,561
water. And s. B. 50 listed the

582
00:36:41,961 --> 00:36:42,961
amenities and the physical

583
00:36:42,961 --> 00:36:43,961
characteristics of the land. I don't know

584
00:36:43,961 --> 00:36:47,961
how to read that. This isn't in the

585
00:36:47,961 --> 00:36:48,961
bill. S. B. 50 isn't going to require

586
00:36:48,961 --> 00:36:51,961
that we are filling in the bay half a

587
00:36:51,961 --> 00:36:54,961
mile from the train station. I don't

588
00:36:54,961 --> 00:36:55,961
understand how that is relevant to the

589
00:36:55,961 --> 00:37:00,761
discussion of s. B. 50. Also as far as

590
00:37:00,961 --> 00:37:01,961
mandating heights and densities, it's

591
00:37:01,961 --> 00:37:03,961
really to allow the property owners to

592
00:37:03,961 --> 00:37:05,961
choose the density. It's not that the

593
00:37:05,961 --> 00:37:10,761
state is going to come and build five

594
00:37:11,961 --> 00:37:13,961
buildings. It's allowing them to build

595
00:37:13,961 --> 00:37:17,961
to the choice they want. And also on

596
00:37:17,961 --> 00:37:20,961
fiscal impacts, it does raise an

597
00:37:20,961 --> 00:37:24,961
interesting point if one of the corner

598
00:37:24,961 --> 00:37:27,961
stones of the opposition of s. B. 50, as

599
00:37:27,961 --> 00:37:30,961
I believe the letter states there are

600
00:37:30,961 --> 00:37:32,961
challenges with meeting pension

601
00:37:32,961 --> 00:37:33,961
obligations with san mateo, and the

602
00:37:33,961 --> 00:37:36,961
interest of seeing basically where we are

603
00:37:36,961 --> 00:37:39,961
raise revenue for land, where are the

604
00:37:39,961 --> 00:37:42,961
well performing land use in this town and

605
00:37:42,961 --> 00:37:46,961
where is the property tax and changing

606
00:37:46,961 --> 00:37:50,561
the 1 story house to abusiness building,

607
00:37:52,961 --> 00:37:57,761
I would like to see that analysis. Thank

608
00:37:57,961 --> 00:37:58,961
you.

609
00:37:58,961 --> 00:38:01,961
public speaker: good evening, council,

610
00:38:03,961 --> 00:38:05,961
jordan grimes, also representing san

611
00:38:05,961 --> 00:38:09,561
mateo peninsula for everyone nimby. There

612
00:38:09,961 --> 00:38:11,901
is so much to talk about here. But I

613
00:38:11,901 --> 00:38:14,901
would like to start here just by saying I

614
00:38:14,901 --> 00:38:17,901
really believe, I have been very proud of

615
00:38:17,901 --> 00:38:19,901
how our council has acted the last few

616
00:38:19,901 --> 00:38:21,901
years. I think there are many cities

617
00:38:21,901 --> 00:38:24,901
along the peninsula that have not acted

618
00:38:24,901 --> 00:38:26,901
the way ours has and I think that really

619
00:38:26,901 --> 00:38:31,901
gets to the crux of why I support s. B.

620
00:38:31,901 --> 00:38:36,701
50. The is rest of the peninsula is not

621
00:38:37,901 --> 00:38:38,901
doing their share and I don't think in

622
00:38:38,901 --> 00:38:40,901
the past we have either. What I would

623
00:38:40,901 --> 00:38:45,901
like to share what I will hope to be

624
00:38:45,901 --> 00:38:50,101
enlightening some of my san mateo news

625
00:38:50,901 --> 00:38:53,301
articles starting in 1974. 9,000 units

626
00:38:56,901 --> 00:38:59,301
needed. 1975, county housing cost

627
00:39:03,901 --> 00:39:06,301
squeezing families. 1976, housing crunch

628
00:39:10,901 --> 00:39:12,901
hurts everyone. 1982, challenging

629
00:39:13,841 --> 00:39:17,841
cities, lack of housing a major problem.

630
00:39:17,841 --> 00:39:21,441
1982 was a big year for housing

631
00:39:22,841 --> 00:39:25,841
apparently. Survey views housing crisis

632
00:39:25,841 --> 00:39:30,410
and one more 1982, it hurts city economic

633
00:39:31,841 --> 00:39:34,841
growth. Back to 1984, this is my

634
00:39:34,841 --> 00:39:36,841
personal favorite. My kids can't afford

635
00:39:36,841 --> 00:39:38,841
to live here.

636
00:39:39,841 --> 00:39:43,441
1985, new housing crunch. What is the

637
00:39:49,841 --> 00:39:52,841
biggest issue, housing. 1985, rental san

638
00:39:54,841 --> 00:39:57,841
mateo, 1989 county housing most expensive

639
00:39:58,841 --> 00:40:02,441
in california, only 64% could meet the

640
00:40:04,841 --> 00:40:08,441
median price of a home. 1990 and 1994,

641
00:40:20,781 --> 00:40:24,381
nimbyism as a factor and finally 1994,

642
00:40:26,781 --> 00:40:30,781
the job growth. The biggest issue is

643
00:40:30,781 --> 00:40:34,781
looking at where we are assessing wrong

644
00:40:34,781 --> 00:40:37,781
and we haven't been able to keep up with

645
00:40:37,781 --> 00:40:39,781
the job growth. It's very well

646
00:40:39,781 --> 00:40:43,781
documented even in the city of san mateo.

647
00:40:43,781 --> 00:40:47,781
where in 1990 if you look at the 1990

648
00:40:47,781 --> 00:40:50,781
housing element, city staff estimated

649
00:40:50,781 --> 00:40:52,781
that with san mateo's job and population

650
00:40:52,781 --> 00:40:56,781
growth, the city would need to have a

651
00:40:56,781 --> 00:40:59,781
total of 43220 housing units by 2005.

652
00:41:03,781 --> 00:41:07,981
today, we have 41250. Roo thank you for

653
00:41:22,721 --> 00:41:23,721
your time.

654
00:41:23,721 --> 00:41:24,721
>>

655
00:41:24,721 --> 00:41:25,721
public speaker: good evening, council,

656
00:41:25,721 --> 00:41:29,321
I'm with san mateo young democrats.

657
00:41:33,721 --> 00:41:37,921
earlier this year the san mateo young

658
00:41:41,721 --> 00:41:44,721
democrats voted for climate endorseing

659
00:41:55,721 --> 00:41:58,721
these emissions and the federalization

660
00:42:03,721 --> 00:42:05,721
and the housing in california. We are a

661
00:42:05,721 --> 00:42:08,721
club that is very concerned

662
00:42:09,721 --> 00:42:12,661
about quality of life issues. These are

663
00:42:12,661 --> 00:42:16,661
young people that come and we represent

664
00:42:16,661 --> 00:42:20,861
democrats in the area to allow more

665
00:42:22,661 --> 00:42:27,461
people to come here and live here more

666
00:42:27,661 --> 00:42:31,261
comfortably. And we are concerned that

667
00:42:33,661 --> 00:42:36,661
we ought to be able to stay here. I know

668
00:42:36,661 --> 00:42:40,661
there is a history in san mateo of

669
00:42:40,661 --> 00:42:43,610
building transient oriented development.

670
00:42:44,661 --> 00:42:47,661
lastly, I want to say, the environmental

671
00:42:47,661 --> 00:42:50,661
impact here is really significant and we

672
00:42:50,661 --> 00:42:54,861
shouldn't take it for granted. The focus

673
00:42:56,661 --> 00:42:59,661
here on building transient oriented

674
00:42:59,661 --> 00:43:01,661
development and building away from

675
00:43:01,661 --> 00:43:04,661
transportation and I think building

676
00:43:07,661 --> 00:43:11,601
transit will get people out of their

677
00:43:11,601 --> 00:43:16,401
cars. I live near the hayward station and

678
00:43:17,601 --> 00:43:19,601
I use the caltrain. Young people support

679
00:43:19,601 --> 00:43:25,100
s. B. 50 and I hope you take my advice.

680
00:43:37,601 --> 00:43:39,601
>> anyone else?

681
00:43:39,601 --> 00:43:40,601
>> okay, back to council.

682
00:43:40,601 --> 00:43:42,601
>> former mayor rick bonilla: I missed

683
00:43:42,601 --> 00:43:47,401
an important thing which is that we need

684
00:43:47,601 --> 00:43:51,601
to remember that s. B. 50 is also an

685
00:43:51,601 --> 00:43:53,601
attempt to cut greenhouse gas emissions

686
00:43:53,601 --> 00:43:56,601
in a very large way because that is

687
00:43:56,601 --> 00:44:00,801
another end to the full circle with

688
00:44:01,601 --> 00:44:03,601
housing and if we are able to do this

689
00:44:03,601 --> 00:44:06,601
right, we are able to cut greenhouse gas

690
00:44:06,601 --> 00:44:09,601
emissions and which leads to sea level

691
00:44:09,601 --> 00:44:11,541
rise. We need to work to get these

692
00:44:11,541 --> 00:44:13,541
things under control if we can get people

693
00:44:13,541 --> 00:44:15,541
to live closer to where they work and the

694
00:44:15,541 --> 00:44:18,541
more that is done, get them out of their

695
00:44:18,541 --> 00:44:22,141
cars, we eliminate the congestion and

696
00:44:22,541 --> 00:44:24,541
also our neighborhood streets, we'll be

697
00:44:24,541 --> 00:44:26,541
that much better off. That said, I agree

698
00:44:26,541 --> 00:44:28,541
this needs to be done in an organized

699
00:44:28,541 --> 00:44:31,541
manner that the people of san mateo can

700
00:44:31,541 --> 00:44:33,541
live with. So, that said, I will go back

701
00:44:33,541 --> 00:44:35,541
to what I think which is that the

702
00:44:35,541 --> 00:44:38,541
legislature has a raft of these kind of

703
00:44:38,541 --> 00:44:40,541
bills going through right now. And I

704
00:44:40,541 --> 00:44:43,541
think it's a good time to rather than

705
00:44:43,541 --> 00:44:45,541
oppose right off the top to say how can

706
00:44:45,541 --> 00:44:47,541
we work with you. My mention still would

707
00:44:47,541 --> 00:44:50,541
be that we would oppose unless amended

708
00:44:50,541 --> 00:44:53,541
and state all the reasons why we think it

709
00:44:53,541 --> 00:44:55,541
needs to be amended. We don't have to

710
00:44:55,541 --> 00:44:58,541
state them in long form and we can just

711
00:44:58,541 --> 00:45:00,541
state them in general because this is

712
00:45:00,541 --> 00:45:03,541
something that will continue to be worked

713
00:45:03,541 --> 00:45:08,341
on, it's not finished and not ready to

714
00:45:08,541 --> 00:45:10,541
oppose and support, it's really to say we

715
00:45:10,541 --> 00:45:12,481
are in, let's participate, let's try to

716
00:45:12,481 --> 00:45:14,481
get the right thing done. And in the

717
00:45:14,481 --> 00:45:16,481
end, if it's something we can't support,

718
00:45:16,481 --> 00:45:20,481
then we don't support it I guess as a

719
00:45:20,481 --> 00:45:22,481
council. That's it. Right now I have a

720
00:45:22,481 --> 00:45:24,481
problem just coming out just saying that

721
00:45:24,481 --> 00:45:29,281
I oppose it. So thank you very much.

722
00:45:37,481 --> 00:45:39,481
>> deputy mayor maureen freschet: I have

723
00:45:39,481 --> 00:45:42,481
a concern and I hear what you are saying,

724
00:45:42,481 --> 00:45:46,681
but the state hasn't asked us to

725
00:45:47,481 --> 00:45:48,481
participate. To say that we are opposed

726
00:45:48,481 --> 00:45:53,881
to it unless we are amending, how can we

727
00:45:54,481 --> 00:45:59,481
amend it if we have not engaged in these

728
00:45:59,481 --> 00:46:00,481
conversations. If we say we have a lot

729
00:46:00,481 --> 00:46:03,481
of concern with this and the state is

730
00:46:03,481 --> 00:46:05,481
saying, here is what we want to hear from

731
00:46:05,481 --> 00:46:08,481
you, here is what we are looking at and

732
00:46:08,481 --> 00:46:11,421
how does this affect the cities from

733
00:46:11,421 --> 00:46:14,421
doing their share but I'm not seeing that

734
00:46:14,421 --> 00:46:17,421
happen that's why I'm having a concern to

735
00:46:17,421 --> 00:46:21,421
say that we oppose it because how can we

736
00:46:21,421 --> 00:46:25,621
oppose it if we are not limiting.

737
00:46:26,421 --> 00:46:31,221
>> I spoke with scott weiner and he will

738
00:46:32,421 --> 00:46:35,421
be available to speak with people.

739
00:46:35,421 --> 00:46:37,421
anytime they take action, it's posted on

740
00:46:37,421 --> 00:46:41,621
their website and we can track it.

741
00:46:44,421 --> 00:46:47,421
>> I think I would have preferred they

742
00:46:47,421 --> 00:46:51,621
come before us before makeing this come

743
00:47:02,421 --> 00:47:03,421
forward.

744
00:47:03,421 --> 00:47:05,421
>> I think san mateo is in the middle

745
00:47:05,421 --> 00:47:06,421
right now of a big general plan

746
00:47:06,421 --> 00:47:08,421
discussion. We are talking about height

747
00:47:08,421 --> 00:47:11,421
limits, we are talking about density, we

748
00:47:11,421 --> 00:47:14,421
are talking about how maybe a one size

749
00:47:14,421 --> 00:47:16,421
fits all approach doesn't work for

750
00:47:16,421 --> 00:47:20,210
everything in san mateo and maybe

751
00:47:20,421 --> 00:47:21,421
different different parcels deserve

752
00:47:21,421 --> 00:47:24,421
different height limits and to just take

753
00:47:24,421 --> 00:47:28,421
that away right now and say, councils do

754
00:47:28,421 --> 00:47:31,421
not have a say in that discussion, that's

755
00:47:31,421 --> 00:47:34,421
going to completely alter the community

756
00:47:34,421 --> 00:47:37,421
discussion just like enacting measure p

757
00:47:37,421 --> 00:47:42,221
would be before we are finished with the

758
00:47:43,421 --> 00:47:47,210
general plan process. So it's really

759
00:47:52,421 --> 00:47:57,421
hard for me to say let's wait when at the

760
00:47:57,421 --> 00:48:02,221
core it's very bad. It's like our city

761
00:48:05,421 --> 00:48:10,421
in san mateo, we have done so much. In

762
00:48:10,421 --> 00:48:13,361
the last 6-7 years, we have really ramped

763
00:48:13,361 --> 00:48:16,361
it up, I don't think it's fair for san

764
00:48:16,361 --> 00:48:18,361
mateo residents and they are the ones who

765
00:48:18,361 --> 00:48:19,361
voted us in here.

766
00:48:19,361 --> 00:48:21,361
>> do you have anything to add?

767
00:48:21,361 --> 00:48:25,561
>> just briefly. I want to agree with

768
00:48:26,361 --> 00:48:29,961
what council member rodriguez just said

769
00:48:30,361 --> 00:48:34,361
that these outside forces were trying to

770
00:48:34,361 --> 00:48:36,361
influence the landscape of san mateo

771
00:48:36,361 --> 00:48:38,361
makes it very difficult for us to do our

772
00:48:38,361 --> 00:48:41,361
jobs in representing san mateo residents.

773
00:48:41,361 --> 00:48:45,361
we have a huge jobs housing imbalances.

774
00:48:45,361 --> 00:48:48,361
it's a crisis. I don't think the state

775
00:48:48,361 --> 00:48:49,361
legislature would be writing bills like

776
00:48:49,361 --> 00:48:52,361
this if it wasn't a crisis facing the

777
00:48:52,361 --> 00:48:55,361
entire state, a crisis that affects

778
00:48:55,361 --> 00:48:58,361
transportation, housing, quality of life,

779
00:48:58,361 --> 00:49:02,361
on a massive scale. They didn't weight

780
00:49:02,361 --> 00:49:03,361
into this lightly. I appreciate that they

781
00:49:03,361 --> 00:49:08,361
are trying to take it as serious as it

782
00:49:08,361 --> 00:49:12,301
is. We are also trying to take a

783
00:49:12,301 --> 00:49:15,301
principaled view that we are doing the

784
00:49:15,301 --> 00:49:18,301
right thing and these are measures that

785
00:49:18,301 --> 00:49:21,301
should be done at the city level. With

786
00:49:21,301 --> 00:49:25,301
all that has been said, I would ask that

787
00:49:25,301 --> 00:49:29,301
we amend the letter in so far as we say

788
00:49:29,301 --> 00:49:33,501
that in its current iteration, we oppose

789
00:49:34,301 --> 00:49:36,301
it. With what it says right now. Not

790
00:49:36,301 --> 00:49:40,301
knowing how it will be amended, not

791
00:49:40,301 --> 00:49:42,301
knowing whether we will agree or disagree

792
00:49:42,301 --> 00:49:44,301
with those amendments, if we are going to

793
00:49:44,301 --> 00:49:47,301
to state an opinion, it's time sensitive

794
00:49:47,301 --> 00:49:52,701
to what's in it right now in its current

795
00:49:53,301 --> 00:49:56,901
forms. Those words would be sufficient.

796
00:50:01,301 --> 00:50:04,301
>> madam mayor, that will save us and

797
00:50:04,301 --> 00:50:07,301
give us room at the table. If we simply

798
00:50:07,301 --> 00:50:12,701
say that we are opposing it, no one will

799
00:50:18,241 --> 00:50:19,241
hear us.

800
00:50:19,241 --> 00:50:21,241
>> I do not agree with that. Taking this

801
00:50:21,241 --> 00:50:23,241
stance is not an anti-housing stance, it

802
00:50:23,241 --> 00:50:26,241
is not a stance that we don't want to see

803
00:50:26,241 --> 00:50:30,241
housing in this community near jobs. The

804
00:50:30,241 --> 00:50:33,241
only reason why at least in my opinion

805
00:50:33,241 --> 00:50:35,241
that I'm taking this stance is that I

806
00:50:35,241 --> 00:50:38,241
want to see it done right for the

807
00:50:38,241 --> 00:50:41,841
residents of this community. I'm not

808
00:50:45,241 --> 00:50:49,241
against giving away authority, but it has

809
00:50:49,241 --> 00:50:52,241
done this balance in the competing

810
00:50:52,241 --> 00:50:53,241
interest. I appreciate the information

811
00:50:53,241 --> 00:50:58,410
given by mr. Grimes, but in actuality, we

812
00:50:58,241 --> 00:51:03,410
have had housing shortage but not to this

813
00:51:03,241 --> 00:51:06,241
degree that it has kept up with jobs. We

814
00:51:06,241 --> 00:51:08,241
did relative well up to that point. When

815
00:51:08,241 --> 00:51:11,181
I look at this community and see what

816
00:51:11,181 --> 00:51:13,181
this community has done, I don't see that

817
00:51:13,181 --> 00:51:16,181
bill as being data driven. I don't see

818
00:51:16,181 --> 00:51:18,181
this bill as saying, these communities

819
00:51:18,181 --> 00:51:22,181
given water on one side that it is

820
00:51:22,181 --> 00:51:26,381
confusing to you, don't let it be

821
00:51:27,181 --> 00:51:30,181
confusing to you, there are areas that

822
00:51:30,181 --> 00:51:33,181
may already be dense. I think cities and

823
00:51:33,181 --> 00:51:37,381
localities are in the best positions to

824
00:51:39,181 --> 00:51:40,181
weigh those constraints. I don't think

825
00:51:40,181 --> 00:51:43,181
this is an anti-housing position. I think

826
00:51:43,181 --> 00:51:45,181
this is housing position that can happen

827
00:51:45,181 --> 00:51:48,781
and within the constraints for particular

828
00:51:49,181 --> 00:51:50,181
community and that's what we are trying

829
00:51:50,181 --> 00:51:53,181
to achieve by opposing the bill. I

830
00:51:53,181 --> 00:51:55,181
appreciate and usually I'm one to say

831
00:51:55,181 --> 00:51:57,181
let's keep the dialogue going, but the

832
00:51:57,181 --> 00:52:00,181
underlying premise of this bill, I don't

833
00:52:00,181 --> 00:52:03,781
see how you get that back.

834
00:52:10,181 --> 00:52:13,121
>> deputy mayor maureen freschet: I

835
00:52:13,121 --> 00:52:16,121
would agree, I don't see how they can

836
00:52:16,121 --> 00:52:19,121
take back the local control and once they

837
00:52:19,121 --> 00:52:21,121
take it, that's a big problem.

838
00:52:21,121 --> 00:52:23,121
>> I don't have anything further to add.

839
00:52:23,121 --> 00:52:26,121
do we have a motion and we'll go from

840
00:52:26,121 --> 00:52:27,121
there.

841
00:52:27,121 --> 00:52:28,121
>> deputy mayor maureen freschet: I will

842
00:52:28,121 --> 00:52:32,921
make a motion that we approve the letters

843
00:52:33,121 --> 00:52:35,121
s. B. 50 letter of opposition and

844
00:52:35,121 --> 00:52:37,121
approve for the mayor to sign that.

845
00:52:37,121 --> 00:52:39,521
>> I second that motion.

846
00:52:42,121 --> 00:52:43,121
>> okay, all in favor say, "aye".

847
00:52:43,121 --> 00:52:44,121
>> aye.

848
00:52:44,121 --> 00:52:45,121
>> any opposed?

849
00:52:45,121 --> 00:52:46,121
>> no.

850
00:52:46,121 --> 00:52:47,121
>> abstained?

851
00:52:47,121 --> 00:52:48,121
>> abstained.

852
00:52:48,121 --> 00:52:52,321
>> okay, that will pass 3-1. Excuse me.

853
00:52:56,121 --> 00:53:00,921
>> let me ask, can we have the letter

854
00:53:08,121 --> 00:53:11,121
state the amount of support.

855
00:53:12,610 --> 00:53:13,610
>> we are already done.

856
00:53:13,610 --> 00:53:16,610
>> I don't see any other support.

857
00:53:16,610 --> 00:53:19,661
>> okay, we'll move on to item 16,

858
00:53:22,610 --> 00:53:24,610
wastewater treatment plant modifications

859
00:53:24,610 --> 00:53:27,610
agendaaddendum. Sorry, let's go to

860
00:53:27,610 --> 00:53:29,610
public comment.

861
00:53:30,610 --> 00:53:32,610
>>clerk: I have no speaker slips.

862
00:53:32,610 --> 00:53:35,661
>> okay. We will go to item 16,

863
00:53:36,610 --> 00:53:38,461
wastewater treatment plant modifications.

864
00:54:04,610 --> 00:54:07,661
>> good evening, mayor papan and members

865
00:54:08,610 --> 00:54:11,661
of the council. I'm the community

866
00:54:23,100 --> 00:54:26,100
development director and I will be making

867
00:54:26,100 --> 00:54:29,100
the presentation on the wastewater

868
00:54:31,100 --> 00:54:32,100
treatment plant modifications. Brad and

869
00:54:32,100 --> 00:54:34,100
I will tag team the presentation. I will

870
00:54:34,100 --> 00:54:37,100
go over the purpose first. Brad will give

871
00:54:37,100 --> 00:54:39,100
us the reasons on why this modification

872
00:54:39,100 --> 00:54:41,100
is necessary and then I will take over

873
00:54:41,100 --> 00:54:44,100
and walk briefly on the background on how

874
00:54:44,100 --> 00:54:49,401
we got here and show you the designs and

875
00:54:50,100 --> 00:54:52,100
modification being prepared and the

876
00:54:52,100 --> 00:54:55,601
request of the council this evening.

877
00:55:06,100 --> 00:55:08,100
sorry about that. We only missed one

878
00:55:08,100 --> 00:55:10,941
slide, I think we are good. The purpose

879
00:55:10,941 --> 00:55:12,941
of the tonight's meeting is to consider

880
00:55:12,941 --> 00:55:15,941
the modifications made by the wastewater

881
00:55:15,941 --> 00:55:18,941
treatment plant approved by konl july

882
00:55:18,941 --> 00:55:20,941
2018. It is the site plan and

883
00:55:20,941 --> 00:55:22,941
architectural rhee which will also

884
00:55:22,941 --> 00:55:26,541
include a finding for the environmental

885
00:55:26,941 --> 00:55:30,541
adequacy and the second entitlement being

886
00:55:30,941 --> 00:55:32,941
requested tonight is an introduction to

887
00:55:32,941 --> 00:55:36,941
an ordinance to allow off site staging.

888
00:55:36,941 --> 00:55:39,941
>> members of council, I'm brad

889
00:55:39,941 --> 00:55:42,941
underwood, public works director. This

890
00:55:42,941 --> 00:55:43,941
item maybe familiar to you and I want to

891
00:55:43,941 --> 00:55:46,941
bring this forward to you about why the

892
00:55:46,941 --> 00:55:49,941
changes were occurring. You did approve

893
00:55:49,941 --> 00:55:53,941
this project this last july. As we

894
00:55:53,941 --> 00:55:57,541
received the cost estimate and the 60%

895
00:55:57,941 --> 00:56:00,941
design this past fall, the estimated kept

896
00:56:00,941 --> 00:56:02,941
climbing up higher and higher. So I

897
00:56:02,941 --> 00:56:06,941
decided to take a pause at the 60% design

898
00:56:06,941 --> 00:56:09,941
and do another evaluation engineering

899
00:56:09,941 --> 00:56:11,881
effort to see what we can do about the

900
00:56:11,881 --> 00:56:14,881
cost. We anticipate at $25 million in

901
00:56:14,881 --> 00:56:17,881
savings from this redesign and gmp one,

902
00:56:17,881 --> 00:56:21,481
we are seeing already $7 plus million

903
00:56:21,881 --> 00:56:26,810
difference as we have those costs already

904
00:56:27,881 --> 00:56:30,881
developed. And that's the smallest

905
00:56:30,881 --> 00:56:33,881
passage, so the $25 million could be

906
00:56:33,881 --> 00:56:37,881
higher than that. The design is still

907
00:56:37,881 --> 00:56:39,881
meeting the regulatory requirements. I

908
00:56:39,881 --> 00:56:41,881
found out additional information from the

909
00:56:41,881 --> 00:56:44,881
bay area water conservation authority

910
00:56:44,881 --> 00:56:46,881
about nutrient levels within the bay that

911
00:56:46,881 --> 00:56:49,881
would be needed and rather than having

912
00:56:49,881 --> 00:56:51,881
target levels which have been anticipated

913
00:56:51,881 --> 00:56:53,881
before, they are just asking that we move

914
00:56:53,881 --> 00:56:57,881
30% of the total nitrogen that we are

915
00:56:57,881 --> 00:57:00,881
going into the bay now from the san mateo

916
00:57:00,881 --> 00:57:03,881
plant. By 2024, if we complete that, it

917
00:57:03,881 --> 00:57:05,881
will be an early act which will then

918
00:57:05,881 --> 00:57:08,881
allow us not to be subject to future

919
00:57:08,881 --> 00:57:12,481
regulations in the area for sometime.

920
00:57:14,881 --> 00:57:18,481
we've also optimized the treatment plant

921
00:57:18,881 --> 00:57:21,881
process for warmer weather using a

922
00:57:21,881 --> 00:57:23,881
smaller footprint and it's a little less

923
00:57:23,881 --> 00:57:27,881
complex for the staff to utilize and

924
00:57:27,881 --> 00:57:30,881
implement. Also this maintains our

925
00:57:30,881 --> 00:57:32,881
current program objectives that I wish we

926
00:57:32,881 --> 00:57:37,810
had all along dealing with the aging

927
00:57:37,881 --> 00:57:39,881
infrastructure, meeting the regulations,

928
00:57:39,881 --> 00:57:43,481
building a wet weather capacity assurance

929
00:57:44,881 --> 00:57:48,481
through that multiprong approach if you

930
00:57:49,881 --> 00:57:52,881
recall the waste treatment plan and the

931
00:57:52,881 --> 00:57:54,881
sustainability goals. The benefits and

932
00:57:54,881 --> 00:57:56,881
modifications we are still meeting the

933
00:57:56,881 --> 00:57:59,881
water quality control board requirements

934
00:58:05,881 --> 00:58:07,881
and deadlines and this allows us to do

935
00:58:07,881 --> 00:58:10,821
that with the plans through these

936
00:58:10,821 --> 00:58:12,821
improvements. And we'll meet with the

937
00:58:12,821 --> 00:58:15,821
schedule and the three of you and I know

938
00:58:15,821 --> 00:58:18,821
with myself went to washington d.c. To

939
00:58:18,821 --> 00:58:20,821
talk to our legislators about the

940
00:58:20,821 --> 00:58:23,821
application which we have been accepted

941
00:58:23,821 --> 00:58:26,821
for and this results in a $100 million of

942
00:58:26,821 --> 00:58:28,821
interest savings to our ratepayers that

943
00:58:28,821 --> 00:58:31,821
will be very significant and will keep us

944
00:58:31,821 --> 00:58:33,821
on schedule for that application.

945
00:58:33,821 --> 00:58:36,821
mitigate, if we keep on process and we

946
00:58:36,821 --> 00:58:40,421
can continue the project going forward,

947
00:58:41,821 --> 00:58:44,821
we'll continue to not have the $1 million

948
00:58:44,821 --> 00:58:48,421
basically about $1 million a month in

949
00:58:50,821 --> 00:58:53,821
installation. We plan to be before you

950
00:58:53,821 --> 00:58:56,821
on june 6th with mp 1.

951
00:59:01,821 --> 00:59:04,821
>> so everybody knows where the

952
00:59:04,821 --> 00:59:05,821
wastewater treatment plant is located.

953
00:59:05,821 --> 00:59:09,821
but to make sure everyone is oriented.

954
00:59:09,821 --> 00:59:15,221
it's on the eastern bored of san mateo on

955
00:59:16,761 --> 00:59:19,761
clinton drive outlined here. The

956
00:59:20,761 --> 00:59:22,761
location of our wastewater treatment

957
00:59:22,761 --> 00:59:26,361
plant. Cal trans praud the wastewater

958
00:59:26,761 --> 00:59:29,761
treatment plant july 2018. Along with

959
00:59:29,761 --> 00:59:31,761
the clean water program provided an

960
00:59:31,761 --> 00:59:33,761
update and notified the council of the

961
00:59:33,761 --> 00:59:36,761
project modifications needed as brad just

962
00:59:36,761 --> 00:59:40,361
explained. This slide just chose this

963
00:59:40,761 --> 00:59:42,761
side by side comparison. The project

964
00:59:42,761 --> 00:59:45,761
that was approved on the left in july and

965
00:59:45,761 --> 00:59:47,761
the proposed modifications on the right.

966
00:59:47,761 --> 00:59:50,761
I will go over more detail on the next

967
00:59:50,761 --> 00:59:53,761
slide. The design modifications can be

968
00:59:53,761 --> 00:59:57,361
really summarized in 4 points. The first

969
00:59:57,761 --> 01:00:01,361
is the replacement of the circular

970
01:00:08,761 --> 01:00:11,701
clarifyers and the rectangle clarifyers

971
01:00:11,701 --> 01:00:15,901
and this is a total reduction of 25,000

972
01:00:16,701 --> 01:00:18,701
square feet. The original building was

973
01:00:18,701 --> 01:00:21,701
previously located adjacent to the

974
01:00:21,701 --> 01:00:23,701
wastewater treatment plant, now it's

975
01:00:23,701 --> 01:00:26,701
located directly adjacent to it.

976
01:00:27,701 --> 01:00:30,701
third, the maintenance warehouse was

977
01:00:30,701 --> 01:00:33,701
increased in size by about 2800 square

978
01:00:33,701 --> 01:00:35,701
feet and has an exchange in exterior

979
01:00:35,701 --> 01:00:37,701
materials which I will go into more

980
01:00:37,701 --> 01:00:41,901
details and show you elevations in the

981
01:00:44,701 --> 01:00:48,301
upcoming slides and fourth, the overall

982
01:00:49,701 --> 01:00:54,701
plant. So here is a view of the new

983
01:00:54,701 --> 01:00:58,901
modified project. You will see here the

984
01:01:00,701 --> 01:01:02,701
administration building was previously

985
01:01:02,701 --> 01:01:06,701
located on the site but further away from

986
01:01:06,701 --> 01:01:08,701
the treatment plant and adjacent and

987
01:01:08,701 --> 01:01:11,641
attachment to the treatment plant. The

988
01:01:11,641 --> 01:01:13,641
administration building stayed the same,

989
01:01:13,641 --> 01:01:16,641
however there were some slight

990
01:01:20,641 --> 01:01:24,841
modifications given the plaza and the new

991
01:01:26,641 --> 01:01:29,641
entrance and the side location of the

992
01:01:29,641 --> 01:01:32,641
plant were made with additional

993
01:01:32,641 --> 01:01:34,641
landscaping included. The landscape

994
01:01:34,641 --> 01:01:37,641
material and drought tolerant native

995
01:01:37,641 --> 01:01:38,641
landscaping however changing more of a

996
01:01:38,641 --> 01:01:41,641
pedestrian feel throughout the whole

997
01:01:43,641 --> 01:01:47,841
site. The wall here where the previous

998
01:01:50,641 --> 01:01:53,641
circular clarifiers, there was a curved

999
01:01:53,641 --> 01:01:59,410
wall and now there is a straight wall and

1000
01:02:01,641 --> 01:02:04,641
the estuary panels now provides a

1001
01:02:04,641 --> 01:02:07,641
screen for the rectangular wall.

1002
01:02:11,581 --> 01:02:14,581
now I'm going to walk you through a

1003
01:02:14,581 --> 01:02:18,581
pedestrian scale of the view. The first

1004
01:02:18,581 --> 01:02:22,581
image was a birds eye view which very few

1005
01:02:22,581 --> 01:02:24,581
will see. Here is the entrance on the

1006
01:02:24,581 --> 01:02:29,981
site and the top and the bottom is the

1007
01:02:30,581 --> 01:02:33,581
new proposed modifications. Again, you

1008
01:02:38,581 --> 01:02:43,381
can see the the middle of the estuary

1009
01:02:55,581 --> 01:02:58,581
path and the view to the site. The view

1010
01:02:58,581 --> 01:03:03,581
we saw earlier was from this side, now we

1011
01:03:03,581 --> 01:03:06,581
are walking towards the other side of the

1012
01:03:06,581 --> 01:03:09,581
wastewater treatment plant. Again, the

1013
01:03:09,581 --> 01:03:10,521
educational component previously approved

1014
01:03:10,521 --> 01:03:12,521
remain the same, the largest change you

1015
01:03:12,521 --> 01:03:16,521
will notice here is the change from the

1016
01:03:16,521 --> 01:03:19,521
circular clarifiers to the rectangular

1017
01:03:19,521 --> 01:03:23,721
clarifyers to the straight wall and the

1018
01:03:29,521 --> 01:03:31,521
mesh estuary screen provided. This is

1019
01:03:31,521 --> 01:03:33,521
another view. Because of the reduction

1020
01:03:33,521 --> 01:03:36,521
in size, you will get a better view of

1021
01:03:36,521 --> 01:03:38,521
the administration building. This is at

1022
01:03:38,521 --> 01:03:42,721
the northeast corner of the site. The

1023
01:03:46,521 --> 01:03:48,521
second request this evening in terms of

1024
01:03:48,521 --> 01:03:51,521
an action is an uncodified ordinance.

1025
01:03:51,521 --> 01:03:53,521
the ordinance is requested because we

1026
01:03:53,521 --> 01:03:55,521
need to stage the construction somewhere.

1027
01:03:55,521 --> 01:03:58,521
and because the site is going to be

1028
01:03:58,521 --> 01:04:01,521
occupied by the existing wastewater

1029
01:04:01,521 --> 01:04:04,521
treatment plant whereas the future plant

1030
01:04:04,521 --> 01:04:06,521
there is no on-site construction staging.

1031
01:04:06,521 --> 01:04:10,461
the city has identified three city owned

1032
01:04:10,461 --> 01:04:12,461
parcels where the construction staging

1033
01:04:12,461 --> 01:04:13,461
could take place. The areas were

1034
01:04:13,461 --> 01:04:16,461
reviewed by the parks and recreation

1035
01:04:16,461 --> 01:04:20,610
commission and approved for staging. The

1036
01:04:20,461 --> 01:04:23,461
environmental effects for staging were

1037
01:04:25,461 --> 01:04:29,610
evaluated and approved for the staging

1038
01:04:31,461 --> 01:04:35,610
projects. There are these zoning areas

1039
01:04:39,461 --> 01:04:43,610
is for off-site staging. Requesting an

1040
01:04:44,461 --> 01:04:46,461
ordinance allowing the construction

1041
01:04:46,461 --> 01:04:50,461
changes to be on those three sites.

1042
01:04:50,461 --> 01:04:53,461
lastly there was a request done on

1043
01:04:53,461 --> 01:04:55,461
modifications and because only minor

1044
01:04:55,461 --> 01:04:59,661
changes occurred to the project and no

1045
01:05:00,461 --> 01:05:01,461
new information and changes, primarily do

1046
01:05:01,461 --> 01:05:04,461
due to the reduction in

1047
01:05:13,401 --> 01:05:18,201
size and no new ceqa analysis would be

1048
01:05:20,401 --> 01:05:22,401
necessary. Tonight, council is

1049
01:05:22,401 --> 01:05:24,401
requesting the council to take two

1050
01:05:24,401 --> 01:05:27,401
actions to approving the design

1051
01:05:28,401 --> 01:05:31,401
modifications to the plan architectural

1052
01:05:34,401 --> 01:05:38,100
review and the environmental affects of

1053
01:05:42,401 --> 01:05:45,401
modifications and to allow to

1054
01:05:47,401 --> 01:05:50,401
construction and staging. That concludes

1055
01:05:55,401 --> 01:05:58,401
our report and the entire design team is

1056
01:05:58,401 --> 01:05:59,401
available for any questions.

1057
01:05:59,401 --> 01:06:01,401
>> okay, thank you so much. I'm going to

1058
01:06:01,401 --> 01:06:06,201
bring it back for questions. I have just

1059
01:06:06,401 --> 01:06:08,401
a couple.

1060
01:06:15,341 --> 01:06:17,341
>> former mayor rick bonilla: I have one

1061
01:06:17,341 --> 01:06:20,941
question to start with. Does the

1062
01:06:21,341 --> 01:06:25,541
electric room still at sea level because

1063
01:06:27,341 --> 01:06:32,141
I'm seeing that the floor level is still

1064
01:06:34,341 --> 01:06:35,341
at sea level.

1065
01:06:35,341 --> 01:06:38,941
>> the electrical is below level. Any

1066
01:06:42,341 --> 01:06:44,341
protection from the walls that we have

1067
01:06:44,341 --> 01:06:47,341
for the galleries is up 3 feet above sea

1068
01:06:47,341 --> 01:06:50,941
level rise that we would expect.

1069
01:06:52,341 --> 01:06:55,341
>> so all thresholds are above sea level

1070
01:06:55,341 --> 01:06:57,741
rise as expected when?

1071
01:07:01,341 --> 01:07:03,741
>> that's the mid-level for 2100.

1072
01:07:08,341 --> 01:07:11,341
>> sure, if I can add to that, public

1073
01:07:11,341 --> 01:07:14,341
works deputy director, the 3.4 was

1074
01:07:15,341 --> 01:07:18,941
elected based on the 66% chance. So

1075
01:07:19,341 --> 01:07:22,341
probability depending on the 2100 high

1076
01:07:29,341 --> 01:07:31,341
emissions scenario for that probability

1077
01:07:31,341 --> 01:07:32,341
for the 2100.

1078
01:07:32,341 --> 01:07:34,741
>> okay, thanks for now.

1079
01:07:40,341 --> 01:07:43,941
>> mayor diane papan: over reduction of

1080
01:07:47,341 --> 01:07:50,341
the structure that doesn't increase the

1081
01:07:50,341 --> 01:07:52,341
capacity, right?

1082
01:07:52,341 --> 01:07:54,341
>> that's right. The capacity stays the

1083
01:07:54,341 --> 01:07:57,341
same for the regular normal dry weather

1084
01:07:57,341 --> 01:08:01,541
flow and 78 mgd per the water flow.

1085
01:08:09,341 --> 01:08:14,141
>> mgd is a million gallons per day. And

1086
01:08:14,281 --> 01:08:16,281
if we don't solve $78 mgd per the water

1087
01:08:16,281 --> 01:08:17,281
flow.

1088
01:08:17,281 --> 01:08:18,281
>> mgd is a million gallons per day. And

1089
01:08:18,281 --> 01:08:19,281
if we don't solve this, it's a million in

1090
01:08:19,281 --> 01:08:20,281
the bucket.

1091
01:08:20,281 --> 01:08:21,281
>> that's correct.

1092
01:08:21,281 --> 01:08:22,281
>> okay, let's open up for public comment.

1093
01:08:22,281 --> 01:08:25,281
>> I have no speaker slips.

1094
01:08:26,281 --> 01:08:28,281
>> that was fast. Surely you can draw

1095
01:08:28,281 --> 01:08:32,281
this out. We have everybody here. I want

1096
01:08:32,281 --> 01:08:34,281
to get my moneys worth.

1097
01:08:34,281 --> 01:08:37,281
>> motion to approve this item?

1098
01:08:37,281 --> 01:08:38,281
>> second.

1099
01:08:38,281 --> 01:08:39,281
>> all in favor say, "aye".

1100
01:08:39,281 --> 01:08:40,281
>> aye.

1101
01:08:40,281 --> 01:08:42,281
>> any opposed? All those abstaining?

1102
01:08:42,281 --> 01:08:46,281
>> I will abstain right now. Okay, that

1103
01:08:46,281 --> 01:08:51,681
passes 4-0-1. Thank you so much. Next up

1104
01:09:10,221 --> 01:09:14,421
next up, we have the king park

1105
01:09:15,221 --> 01:09:16,221
improvement projects, old business.

1106
01:09:16,221 --> 01:09:19,821
>> good evening, parks and recreation and

1107
01:09:22,221 --> 01:09:27,210
I'm serving as the manager of the king

1108
01:09:27,221 --> 01:09:30,221
project. This project came up in march

1109
01:09:30,221 --> 01:09:35,210
and at that time we attempt an agreement

1110
01:09:40,221 --> 01:09:44,221
with the park improvement and the council

1111
01:09:44,221 --> 01:09:48,421
wanted to wait on approving that item

1112
01:09:50,221 --> 01:09:54,221
because of the school referral and that

1113
01:09:54,221 --> 01:09:56,221
they notified there was an investigation

1114
01:09:56,221 --> 01:09:59,221
at the state department of industrial

1115
01:09:59,221 --> 01:10:02,221
relations had opened about their

1116
01:10:02,221 --> 01:10:03,221
compliance with apprenticeship

1117
01:10:03,221 --> 01:10:07,421
requirements and the labor code. So, the

1118
01:10:09,221 --> 01:10:11,161
council wanted to have more time to meet

1119
01:10:11,161 --> 01:10:14,161
with them. Subsequent to that, staff was

1120
01:10:14,161 --> 01:10:18,361
able to meet with the project manager

1121
01:10:23,161 --> 01:10:26,161
from the unified school district and we

1122
01:10:26,161 --> 01:10:29,161
had the whole conversation about the

1123
01:10:29,161 --> 01:10:31,161
apprenticeship and the unified school

1124
01:10:31,161 --> 01:10:34,161
district indicated they had complied with

1125
01:10:34,161 --> 01:10:35,161
their requirements but acknowledged that

1126
01:10:35,161 --> 01:10:38,161
one of the unions disagreed with that.

1127
01:10:38,161 --> 01:10:42,161
so, with that, and an overall favorable

1128
01:10:42,161 --> 01:10:43,161
recommendation from the school district

1129
01:10:43,161 --> 01:10:46,161
as well as the other references that we

1130
01:10:46,161 --> 01:10:48,161
had, we prepared an administrative report

1131
01:10:48,161 --> 01:10:52,161
for your april 1st meeting to approve the

1132
01:10:52,161 --> 01:10:55,161
contract as previously presented. That

1133
01:10:55,161 --> 01:10:59,961
same day, we received an e-mail from the

1134
01:11:00,161 --> 01:11:02,161
laborers local union that transmitted two

1135
01:11:02,161 --> 01:11:05,761
documents from the state related to

1136
01:11:09,161 --> 01:11:12,101
goodland's use of the project on

1137
01:11:12,101 --> 01:11:13,101
apprenticeship. Because of the timing of

1138
01:11:13,101 --> 01:11:16,101
that, I felt it was important to have the

1139
01:11:16,101 --> 01:11:20,101
time to get a response from goodland to

1140
01:11:20,101 --> 01:11:22,101
make sure we had all the information and

1141
01:11:22,101 --> 01:11:25,101
documents to be able to make a full

1142
01:11:25,101 --> 01:11:28,101
assessment of that and be able to provide

1143
01:11:28,101 --> 01:11:30,101
full information to the council. So we

1144
01:11:30,101 --> 01:11:33,101
pulled the item from the april 1st

1145
01:11:33,101 --> 01:11:35,101
meeting to allow us to do that. So, we've

1146
01:11:35,101 --> 01:11:40,501
done that to the degree that we think is

1147
01:11:41,101 --> 01:11:43,101
necessary and possible. That due

1148
01:11:43,101 --> 01:11:46,701
diligence we did included speaking with

1149
01:11:50,101 --> 01:11:52,101
goodland and goodland followed up with an

1150
01:11:52,101 --> 01:11:56,301
e-mail with a third document with that.

1151
01:12:02,101 --> 01:12:05,701
and we signed the two documents.

1152
01:12:06,101 --> 01:12:09,701
I want to briefly discuss the

1153
01:12:11,410 --> 01:12:13,410
requirements and related to the project.

1154
01:12:13,410 --> 01:12:17,241
the state labor code requires for pork

1155
01:12:22,410 --> 01:12:24,410
projects that apprenticeships be hired

1156
01:12:24,410 --> 01:12:27,641
for 5 hours of journey men. And

1157
01:12:28,410 --> 01:12:29,410
specifically --

1158
01:12:29,410 --> 01:12:32,410
>> sorry, I'm too tall. It's too late to

1159
01:12:32,410 --> 01:12:36,841
do anything about that. I will try to

1160
01:12:48,410 --> 01:12:50,410
speak up.

1161
01:12:51,410 --> 01:12:53,410
the joint labor committee made an

1162
01:12:53,410 --> 01:12:56,410
exception to that 1-5-hour requirement of

1163
01:12:56,410 --> 01:12:59,410
the labor code. And the committee had

1164
01:12:59,410 --> 01:13:01,410
based that upon their determination that

1165
01:13:01,410 --> 01:13:04,641
it's not a practical application for

1166
01:13:05,410 --> 01:13:08,410
laborers and that doesn't provide

1167
01:13:11,981 --> 01:13:15,581
adequate supervision so the exception is

1168
01:13:26,981 --> 01:13:31,181
granted by the state and that 1-4

1169
01:13:32,981 --> 01:13:37,781
laborers could be an journey men and the

1170
01:13:42,981 --> 01:13:47,181
fifth laborer must be an apprentice. And

1171
01:13:51,981 --> 01:13:56,181
they were out of compliance on the

1172
01:13:57,981 --> 01:13:59,981
apprenticeship requirements and they

1173
01:13:59,981 --> 01:14:02,981
thought they were eligible in that

1174
01:14:02,981 --> 01:14:05,981
description I just described and asked

1175
01:14:05,981 --> 01:14:07,981
for a reassessment for the finding for

1176
01:14:07,981 --> 01:14:09,921
that. So the eventual outcome was the

1177
01:14:09,921 --> 01:14:13,921
good land in the state entered into a

1178
01:14:13,921 --> 01:14:16,921
release agreement and key parts of that

1179
01:14:16,921 --> 01:14:20,521
where it included the stated goodland

1180
01:14:20,921 --> 01:14:22,921
position where they were eligible for the

1181
01:14:22,921 --> 01:14:23,921
position and the states position that

1182
01:14:23,921 --> 01:14:28,721
they were not, but the two parties rather

1183
01:14:34,921 --> 01:14:38,921
than litigating the issue they agreed to

1184
01:14:38,921 --> 01:14:41,921
$65,000. So that payment was made and

1185
01:14:41,921 --> 01:14:44,321
the complaint was closed.

1186
01:14:44,921 --> 01:14:47,921
so, that's pretty much what we found

1187
01:14:47,921 --> 01:14:48,921
about that particular circumstance, and

1188
01:14:48,921 --> 01:14:54,321
so, what we thought we would do is bring

1189
01:14:54,921 --> 01:14:57,921
back the original recommendation which we

1190
01:14:57,921 --> 01:14:59,921
included the two contracts, but also

1191
01:14:59,921 --> 01:15:03,921
bring two other options for the city

1192
01:15:03,921 --> 01:15:08,121
council to consider. First is to reject

1193
01:15:15,861 --> 01:15:17,861
all bids until we settle the issue with

1194
01:15:17,861 --> 01:15:20,861
the contractor for the main part of the

1195
01:15:20,861 --> 01:15:21,861
project.

1196
01:15:21,861 --> 01:15:23,861
then the third option would be to

1197
01:15:23,861 --> 01:15:26,861
essential he direct staff to pursue an

1198
01:15:26,861 --> 01:15:30,861
award of contract to a bidder other than

1199
01:15:30,861 --> 01:15:33,861
the low bidder from among those who had

1200
01:15:33,861 --> 01:15:38,661
bid, and then to award a filter for

1201
01:15:39,861 --> 01:15:40,861
contract to simultaneous toss contract

1202
01:15:40,861 --> 01:15:45,861
for the main part of the project. So the

1203
01:15:45,861 --> 01:15:47,861
administrative report provides a little

1204
01:15:47,861 --> 01:15:50,861
bit more information related to each of

1205
01:15:50,861 --> 01:15:52,861
those options. I won't go through those

1206
01:15:52,861 --> 01:15:56,861
at this point, but I would just indicate

1207
01:15:56,861 --> 01:16:02,261
that I or the city attorney can answer to

1208
01:16:18,801 --> 01:16:19,801
your questions.

1209
01:16:19,801 --> 01:16:24,100
>> this is for the attorney. The state

1210
01:16:24,801 --> 01:16:29,601
says that we have gone against the law,

1211
01:16:29,801 --> 01:16:31,801
which is that?

1212
01:16:31,801 --> 01:16:34,801
>> the two parties entered into agreement

1213
01:16:34,801 --> 01:16:38,801
that basically said we are done with it

1214
01:16:38,801 --> 01:16:40,801
and we settled it. That's where we are.

1215
01:16:40,801 --> 01:16:44,801
we have no opportunity for us to go

1216
01:16:44,801 --> 01:16:49,601
through our own analysis of the law. So

1217
01:16:54,801 --> 01:16:55,801
that's where it stands.

1218
01:16:55,801 --> 01:16:59,801
>> but typically, if you are found to be

1219
01:16:59,801 --> 01:17:03,401
in violation of the law, then

1220
01:17:04,801 --> 01:17:06,801
that pretty much means even if you are

1221
01:17:06,801 --> 01:17:10,801
able to negotiate it down to something

1222
01:17:10,801 --> 01:17:15,801
else, in my reason, there was an a reason

1223
01:17:15,801 --> 01:17:17,801
to pay the $55,000.

1224
01:17:20,801 --> 01:17:24,401
>> they indicated there was a violation

1225
01:17:24,801 --> 01:17:27,801
and must have thought it was an issue

1226
01:17:27,801 --> 01:17:28,801
about their interpretation and didn't

1227
01:17:28,801 --> 01:17:33,601
want to take the issue of appealing and

1228
01:17:34,801 --> 01:17:39,100
they would not have insisted upon the

1229
01:17:39,801 --> 01:17:41,801
violation of the code.

1230
01:17:41,801 --> 01:17:42,801
>> okay, thank you.

1231
01:17:42,801 --> 01:17:46,401
>> do we have any public comment?

1232
01:17:46,801 --> 01:17:48,801
>> no, madam mayor.

1233
01:18:00,801 --> 01:18:03,801
>> good evening, madam mayor, council

1234
01:18:04,801 --> 01:18:09,100
members, dave dell la torre, with the

1235
01:18:16,741 --> 01:18:19,741
labors union. I want to thank you for

1236
01:18:19,741 --> 01:18:22,741
waiting to award this project pending the

1237
01:18:22,741 --> 01:18:24,741
additional violations. By the way, it was

1238
01:18:24,741 --> 01:18:26,741
only brought up because they challenged

1239
01:18:26,741 --> 01:18:29,741
the foundation for fair contracting to

1240
01:18:29,741 --> 01:18:33,341
discover and bring up any other

1241
01:18:37,741 --> 01:18:39,741
violations. They should have been

1242
01:18:39,741 --> 01:18:41,741
forthcoming knowing that this was out

1243
01:18:41,741 --> 01:18:44,741
there, but yet they didn't. I want to

1244
01:18:44,741 --> 01:18:48,341
thank the foundation for a fair

1245
01:18:48,741 --> 01:18:51,741
contracting for bird dogging and bringing

1246
01:18:51,741 --> 01:18:55,941
this up on behalf of the working

1247
01:18:59,741 --> 01:19:03,941
families. I would just recommend that --

1248
01:19:04,741 --> 01:19:06,741
I would strongly recommend that you would

1249
01:19:06,741 --> 01:19:09,681
go with the second lowest bidder, okay,

1250
01:19:09,681 --> 01:19:10,681
thank you for your time.

1251
01:19:10,681 --> 01:19:13,681
>> I'm sorry, I didn't hear you, if you

1252
01:19:13,681 --> 01:19:15,681
can repeat that last part.

1253
01:19:15,681 --> 01:19:17,681
>> that I recommend that you go with the

1254
01:19:17,681 --> 01:19:18,681
second lowest bidder.

1255
01:19:18,681 --> 01:19:20,681
>> okay, thank you.

1256
01:19:21,681 --> 01:19:25,281
>> the speaker is robert bingham followed

1257
01:19:30,681 --> 01:19:32,681
by arturo samples.

1258
01:19:32,681 --> 01:19:33,681
>>

1259
01:19:33,681 --> 01:19:36,681
public speaker: council, robert bingham,

1260
01:19:36,681 --> 01:19:41,481
I stand before you guys being accused of

1261
01:19:41,681 --> 01:19:44,681
accusations that are simply falls.

1262
01:19:44,681 --> 01:19:47,681
goodman has a right per the code to

1263
01:19:47,681 --> 01:19:51,281
employ one apprentice when it exceeds

1264
01:19:51,681 --> 01:19:54,681
four journey men workers for the project.

1265
01:19:54,681 --> 01:19:57,810
goodman was not in

1266
01:20:06,681 --> 01:20:10,621
violation of that code. We had to make a

1267
01:20:10,621 --> 01:20:14,221
business decision to we spend $40,000 on

1268
01:20:16,621 --> 01:20:22,210
a case or do we spend $55,000 to make it

1269
01:20:23,621 --> 01:20:25,621
go away. Had the labors union had a

1270
01:20:25,621 --> 01:20:28,621
stronger case, I don't think they would

1271
01:20:28,621 --> 01:20:33,421
have let us off the hook for this

1272
01:20:33,621 --> 01:20:35,621
settlement. We have worked over 100

1273
01:20:35,621 --> 01:20:37,621
projects to date and there has been a

1274
01:20:37,621 --> 01:20:39,621
couple of disputes that I will

1275
01:20:39,621 --> 01:20:41,621
acknowledge that have been presented,

1276
01:20:41,621 --> 01:20:43,621
however, I feel that we are being

1277
01:20:43,621 --> 01:20:45,621
targeted simply because we are a

1278
01:20:45,621 --> 01:20:48,621
non-union company and that is our

1279
01:20:48,621 --> 01:20:51,621
constitutional right. We can't be

1280
01:20:52,621 --> 01:20:55,621
belittled by the unions because we don't

1281
01:20:55,621 --> 01:20:58,621
agree with their bylaws. Mr. Bonilla,

1282
01:20:58,621 --> 01:21:01,621
being a union rep can also recognize that

1283
01:21:01,621 --> 01:21:04,621
being a field member representative there

1284
01:21:04,621 --> 01:21:10,210
is a ton of disputes from union to union,

1285
01:21:13,561 --> 01:21:15,561
carpenters on laborers and labors or

1286
01:21:15,561 --> 01:21:18,561
operators, this is a shake down because

1287
01:21:18,561 --> 01:21:20,561
they are in this community and feel we

1288
01:21:20,561 --> 01:21:22,561
are against the unions. All we are trying

1289
01:21:22,561 --> 01:21:26,561
to do is make a fair living for ourselves

1290
01:21:26,561 --> 01:21:28,561
and our workers and the citizens of san

1291
01:21:28,561 --> 01:21:30,561
mateo. If you look at the bid results,

1292
01:21:30,561 --> 01:21:34,161
there is an over $70,000 on economic

1293
01:21:34,561 --> 01:21:37,561
advantage. You have a right to come out

1294
01:21:37,561 --> 01:21:42,361
and audit our books, mr. Bonilla is more

1295
01:21:42,561 --> 01:21:45,561
than welcome to come to the job to look

1296
01:21:45,561 --> 01:21:48,561
as he has in the past. Thank you for your

1297
01:21:48,561 --> 01:21:49,561
time.

1298
01:21:49,561 --> 01:21:50,561
>> next speaker is arturo sam.

1299
01:21:50,561 --> 01:21:52,561
>>

1300
01:22:00,561 --> 01:22:02,561
public speaker: good evening, city

1301
01:22:02,561 --> 01:22:05,561
council, mayor, thanks for my chance to

1302
01:22:05,561 --> 01:22:10,361
speak. I know I fumbled the football, but

1303
01:22:10,501 --> 01:22:15,901
it was my first time. We were going out

1304
01:22:16,501 --> 01:22:18,501
to speak on the landscape. He did pay for

1305
01:22:18,501 --> 01:22:23,901
it but it stands it was still a violation

1306
01:22:25,501 --> 01:22:27,501
of 77.5. That's our key. As a father and

1307
01:22:27,501 --> 01:22:31,701
commissioner of a volunteer of a softball

1308
01:22:34,501 --> 01:22:40,501
league how it is to have a team ready to

1309
01:22:40,501 --> 01:22:44,501
go. I used to live in san mateo when I

1310
01:22:44,501 --> 01:22:48,501
was first married. I ask that you give a

1311
01:22:48,501 --> 01:22:51,501
record to a no contract with no

1312
01:22:51,501 --> 01:22:53,501
violations. We go to option 3 and that's

1313
01:22:53,501 --> 01:22:55,501
all I have to say. Thank you.

1314
01:22:55,501 --> 01:22:59,101
>> I have no other speaker slips.

1315
01:22:59,501 --> 01:23:01,501
>> mayor diane papan: okay, we'll bring

1316
01:23:01,501 --> 01:23:05,701
it back to the council for comment.

1317
01:23:06,501 --> 01:23:09,441
>> former mayor rick bonilla: I have

1318
01:23:09,441 --> 01:23:10,441
some comments?

1319
01:23:10,441 --> 01:23:12,841
>> okay, council member bonilla.

1320
01:23:13,433 --> 01:23:15,434
>> thank you, first I think it needs to

1321
01:23:15,434 --> 01:23:18,434
be recognized that san mateo as a city

1322
01:23:18,434 --> 01:23:20,434
that issue is public works projects under

1323
01:23:20,434 --> 01:23:23,434
the state laws has awarded plenty of

1324
01:23:23,434 --> 01:23:26,434
contracts to contractors who are not

1325
01:23:26,434 --> 01:23:30,434
signatory to any unions. You are living

1326
01:23:30,434 --> 01:23:32,434
proof. So that aside, I want to make sure

1327
01:23:32,434 --> 01:23:36,434
that this city when it's reforming it's

1328
01:23:36,434 --> 01:23:39,434
public works, it makes sure that the laws

1329
01:23:39,434 --> 01:23:44,434
are being -- obeyed and they are going to

1330
01:23:44,434 --> 01:23:46,434
be obeyed and we are upholding the

1331
01:23:46,434 --> 01:23:49,434
dignity of this law so that the workers

1332
01:23:49,434 --> 01:23:51,434
all get the same wages, the wages that

1333
01:23:51,434 --> 01:23:55,340
are provided under the wage determination

1334
01:23:55,434 --> 01:23:58,434
from the dir. And the apprenticeship

1335
01:23:58,434 --> 01:24:00,434
standards an

1336
01:24:03,434 --> 01:24:06,434
inherent part of that. They do not go

1337
01:24:06,434 --> 01:24:09,434
away. I feel strongly we need to award a

1338
01:24:09,434 --> 01:24:12,374
contractor who has not violated the law,

1339
01:24:12,374 --> 01:24:15,374
at least not recently because this was

1340
01:24:15,374 --> 01:24:18,374
just last year and the settlement only

1341
01:24:18,374 --> 01:24:22,374
happened this year. So I am going to

1342
01:24:22,374 --> 01:24:24,374
recommend my personal thoughts and we can

1343
01:24:24,374 --> 01:24:27,374
hear other comments that we choose option

1344
01:24:27,374 --> 01:24:31,374
3 which is in the interest conveyed by

1345
01:24:31,374 --> 01:24:33,374
staff earlier that there was a time limit

1346
01:24:33,374 --> 01:24:35,374
for this project. I think it would be

1347
01:24:35,374 --> 01:24:38,374
faster to look for one of the previous

1348
01:24:38,374 --> 01:24:40,374
bidders. I know that it will cost a

1349
01:24:40,374 --> 01:24:45,174
little bit more, but I think it's worth

1350
01:24:45,374 --> 01:24:49,374
to get the job going and working with a

1351
01:24:49,374 --> 01:24:50,374
contractor who is known to be a follower

1352
01:24:50,374 --> 01:24:51,374
of the law in the interest of the people.

1353
01:24:51,374 --> 01:24:53,774
thank you very much.

1354
01:24:56,374 --> 01:24:59,374
>> mayor diane papan: okay. Anybody

1355
01:25:02,374 --> 01:25:03,374
else?

1356
01:25:03,374 --> 01:25:05,374
>> rick, I think it's within our purview

1357
01:25:05,374 --> 01:25:06,374
to discuss this out a little bit.

1358
01:25:06,374 --> 01:25:07,374
>> yeah.

1359
01:25:07,374 --> 01:25:12,174
>> the idea that it's common or rare to

1360
01:25:12,314 --> 01:25:16,314
have a complaint like this at a work

1361
01:25:16,314 --> 01:25:21,114
site, are there builders who end up not

1362
01:25:23,314 --> 01:25:26,314
having any complaints about their work

1363
01:25:26,314 --> 01:25:27,314
site?

1364
01:25:27,314 --> 01:25:29,314
>> yeah, there are plenty of contractors

1365
01:25:29,314 --> 01:25:33,314
that have no complaints to the dir or

1366
01:25:33,314 --> 01:25:37,514
dis. What mr. Bingham was describing is

1367
01:25:38,314 --> 01:25:41,914
between contracts there is a description

1368
01:25:42,314 --> 01:25:45,314
about who is doing the work and a whole

1369
01:25:45,314 --> 01:25:48,314
different level of what goes on between

1370
01:25:48,314 --> 01:25:51,314
unions. No, this is very simple, there

1371
01:25:51,314 --> 01:25:55,314
are lots of contractors who have not had

1372
01:25:55,314 --> 01:25:58,314
any complaints nor any violations.

1373
01:26:06,314 --> 01:26:09,314
>> I have a couple questions. And you

1374
01:26:09,314 --> 01:26:13,514
might be able to step in here.

1375
01:26:16,254 --> 01:26:20,254
so attachment 7 is how the city can

1376
01:26:20,254 --> 01:26:24,254
protect themselves if there is a breach

1377
01:26:24,254 --> 01:26:26,254
as to hired apprenticeship as required by

1378
01:26:26,254 --> 01:26:30,254
the law and other things we can do with

1379
01:26:30,254 --> 01:26:33,854
certified payroll submittals as to the

1380
01:26:34,254 --> 01:26:36,254
apprentice matters being done as well and

1381
01:26:36,254 --> 01:26:37,254
not complying with that?

1382
01:26:37,254 --> 01:26:42,254
>> I will let you speak to the memo that

1383
01:26:42,254 --> 01:26:44,254
the generated by his office. The other

1384
01:26:44,254 --> 01:26:48,254
two suggestions was that we could require

1385
01:26:48,254 --> 01:26:51,254
that the certified payroll submittals be

1386
01:26:51,254 --> 01:26:53,254
provided to staff as well and we would

1387
01:26:53,254 --> 01:26:56,854
review those against the prevailing wage

1388
01:26:57,254 --> 01:26:58,254
schedules to ensure compliance as well.

1389
01:26:58,254 --> 01:27:03,654
the second thing we can do would be to

1390
01:27:04,254 --> 01:27:06,254
require all the submittals that need to

1391
01:27:06,254 --> 01:27:10,254
go to each of the trades around the

1392
01:27:10,254 --> 01:27:11,254
apprenticeship issue and we can require

1393
01:27:11,254 --> 01:27:14,254
those to be submitted to us as well. In

1394
01:27:14,254 --> 01:27:17,854
the documentation that you received from

1395
01:27:19,254 --> 01:27:22,254
goodland on several of their

1396
01:27:22,254 --> 01:27:24,254
correspondence, included copies of those

1397
01:27:24,254 --> 01:27:26,254
forms that are notification that a

1398
01:27:26,254 --> 01:27:31,540
contract was going to be awarded, on the

1399
01:27:34,254 --> 01:27:37,254
des 140 and the request for the dispatch

1400
01:27:37,254 --> 01:27:41,454
of the bren apprentice. Those would be

1401
01:27:46,254 --> 01:27:47,254
required.

1402
01:27:47,254 --> 01:27:50,254
>> before you do that, explain to me the

1403
01:27:50,254 --> 01:27:53,254
dispatch that goes to the union and says

1404
01:27:53,254 --> 01:27:57,254
can you please dispatch to us the

1405
01:27:57,254 --> 01:28:00,254
apprenticeship to do the job.

1406
01:28:00,254 --> 01:28:03,254
>> I'm only been certified for 10

1407
01:28:03,254 --> 01:28:06,254
minutes. I think those go to the

1408
01:28:06,254 --> 01:28:08,254
apprenticeship committees. But we have

1409
01:28:08,254 --> 01:28:12,194
people back here on the dais who may know

1410
01:28:12,194 --> 01:28:15,794
more exactly, but it's requesting the

1411
01:28:21,194 --> 01:28:22,194
apprentices be dispatched and identify

1412
01:28:22,194 --> 01:28:24,594
what the need is.

1413
01:28:25,194 --> 01:28:27,194
>> did you have a follow-up to that?

1414
01:28:27,194 --> 01:28:28,194
>> no, I would rather wait.

1415
01:28:28,194 --> 01:28:30,194
>> okay.

1416
01:28:34,194 --> 01:28:35,194
>> so attachment 7 is a memo prepared by

1417
01:28:35,194 --> 01:28:39,194
the city attorney and my office and

1418
01:28:39,194 --> 01:28:41,194
outlines the remedies, both the penalties

1419
01:28:41,194 --> 01:28:44,194
that go along for state law that are

1420
01:28:44,194 --> 01:28:47,194
violating these laws, the prevailing wage

1421
01:28:47,194 --> 01:28:49,194
laws and as well as the contractual

1422
01:28:49,194 --> 01:28:52,194
remedies the city would have if the

1423
01:28:52,194 --> 01:28:54,194
contractor did not comply with those

1424
01:28:54,194 --> 01:28:57,794
laws. So there are remedies available

1425
01:28:59,194 --> 01:29:01,194
when violations occur.

1426
01:29:04,194 --> 01:29:06,194
>> I think I'm done for now.

1427
01:29:06,194 --> 01:29:10,994
>> so, I just have a question for council

1428
01:29:17,134 --> 01:29:21,134
member so I better understand this. Is

1429
01:29:21,134 --> 01:29:25,134
your main concern is that goodland would

1430
01:29:25,134 --> 01:29:27,134
not follow these regulations for these

1431
01:29:27,134 --> 01:29:32,534
projects here, or is it more to kind of

1432
01:29:33,134 --> 01:29:35,134
punish them for alleged violations in the

1433
01:29:35,134 --> 01:29:36,134
past?

1434
01:29:36,134 --> 01:29:38,134
>> so my concern right now is going

1435
01:29:38,134 --> 01:29:41,134
forward we try to use a contractor who is

1436
01:29:41,134 --> 01:29:44,134
not known to have violated these laws,

1437
01:29:44,134 --> 01:29:47,134
and I have another concern in the letter

1438
01:29:47,134 --> 01:29:51,934
and materials sent to us from goodland, I

1439
01:29:53,134 --> 01:29:58,534
sensed and I red an read and an attempt

1440
01:30:00,134 --> 01:30:04,934
to dissuade us that a violation was a

1441
01:30:05,134 --> 01:30:08,734
violation and the laws pertaining to

1442
01:30:09,134 --> 01:30:11,740
those that could qualify which is the law

1443
01:30:11,740 --> 01:30:15,740
and would have to be signatory to qualify

1444
01:30:15,740 --> 01:30:17,740
for that exemption. They wouldn't be

1445
01:30:17,740 --> 01:30:20,740
qualified for it. It's not no judgment on

1446
01:30:20,740 --> 01:30:23,740
my part. That's what the law says right

1447
01:30:23,740 --> 01:30:26,740
now. He tried to convince us that the

1448
01:30:26,740 --> 01:30:28,740
violation was not a violation and he only

1449
01:30:28,740 --> 01:30:32,740
paid to make it go away which were his

1450
01:30:32,740 --> 01:30:34,740
exact words just a minute ago. That's not

1451
01:30:34,740 --> 01:30:36,740
a great attitude going forward in terms

1452
01:30:36,740 --> 01:30:39,740
of showing respect for the law. In fact

1453
01:30:39,740 --> 01:30:41,740
it shows a kind of contempt for the law

1454
01:30:41,740 --> 01:30:45,740
in my mind. So I just want to get the job

1455
01:30:45,740 --> 01:30:48,740
going with a contractor who doesn't have

1456
01:30:48,740 --> 01:30:50,740
any violations under their belt and we

1457
01:30:50,740 --> 01:30:51,740
can move forward.

1458
01:30:51,740 --> 01:30:53,740
>> it's not about whether or not they

1459
01:30:53,740 --> 01:30:56,674
will be able to fulfill their 100%

1460
01:30:57,740 --> 01:31:01,740
obligations for the city of san mateo for

1461
01:31:01,740 --> 01:31:02,740
this project.

1462
01:31:02,740 --> 01:31:04,740
>> sean mentioned in his letter here that

1463
01:31:04,740 --> 01:31:07,740
for instance paul said we could collect

1464
01:31:07,740 --> 01:31:09,740
the certified payroll reports and examine

1465
01:31:09,740 --> 01:31:11,140
them. So I have some questions about

1466
01:31:11,140 --> 01:31:15,140
that, I don't think we employ anybody who

1467
01:31:15,140 --> 01:31:18,140
is qualified, trained, knowledgeable in

1468
01:31:18,140 --> 01:31:19,140
knowledging payroll reports. In fact

1469
01:31:19,140 --> 01:31:23,140
they are not wage reports but wage in our

1470
01:31:23,140 --> 01:31:26,140
reports and we have to know who was

1471
01:31:26,140 --> 01:31:27,140
working on the site and what days and we

1472
01:31:27,140 --> 01:31:31,214
have to be able to gather superintendents

1473
01:31:35,140 --> 01:31:38,140
daily logs so that we are able to discern

1474
01:31:38,140 --> 01:31:42,140
and I have seen so much information

1475
01:31:42,140 --> 01:31:45,140
recently where people worked on-the-job 5

1476
01:31:45,140 --> 01:31:48,140
hours a day where they claim to work

1477
01:31:48,140 --> 01:31:51,140
somewhere else 3 hours a day. People

1478
01:31:51,140 --> 01:31:54,614
that's what they do, they enforce

1479
01:31:55,140 --> 01:31:58,614
certified payroll that we don't have

1480
01:31:59,140 --> 01:32:01,140
anybody in house to try to do that and I

1481
01:32:01,140 --> 01:32:05,140
think we would be a failure in trying to

1482
01:32:05,140 --> 01:32:07,140
do that. Yes, I'm concerned that we'll

1483
01:32:07,140 --> 01:32:10,954
get what we are supposed to get under the

1484
01:32:10,954 --> 01:32:14,554
prevailing wage laws which is the

1485
01:32:15,954 --> 01:32:17,954
people's moneys worth.

1486
01:32:20,954 --> 01:32:25,154
>> so I have a follow-up question on

1487
01:32:26,954 --> 01:32:29,354
that, it's worth 80,000, $80,000, plus

1488
01:32:32,954 --> 01:32:34,954
the taxpayers money?

1489
01:32:35,954 --> 01:32:40,754
>> yes, it is worth to not pay someone

1490
01:32:42,954 --> 01:32:45,954
who has violated the law. Yes, I would

1491
01:32:45,954 --> 01:32:46,954
say it's worth that.

1492
01:32:46,954 --> 01:32:48,954
>> I was just going to say that nothing

1493
01:32:48,954 --> 01:32:53,154
was presented to us and we didn't

1494
01:32:53,954 --> 01:32:57,554
undercover anything that showed that good

1495
01:33:05,954 --> 01:33:10,154
land did not follow the prevailing wage

1496
01:33:11,894 --> 01:33:12,894
requirement.

1497
01:33:12,894 --> 01:33:14,894
>> counsel, I'm trying to remember. I

1498
01:33:14,894 --> 01:33:16,894
think I red this in the staff report, if

1499
01:33:16,894 --> 01:33:19,894
we run the risk of paying $100,000 more

1500
01:33:19,894 --> 01:33:22,894
to go to the other one of the

1501
01:33:22,894 --> 01:33:24,894
contractors, we can also be presented

1502
01:33:24,894 --> 01:33:28,894
with new bids that are even higher than

1503
01:33:28,894 --> 01:33:33,894
that, and are we also at risk with a

1504
01:33:33,894 --> 01:33:35,894
field turf on not honoring the amount

1505
01:33:35,894 --> 01:33:36,894
they gave us?

1506
01:33:36,894 --> 01:33:39,894
>> the field turf, I believe their

1507
01:33:39,894 --> 01:33:42,894
proposal is good through june 1st. They

1508
01:33:42,894 --> 01:33:47,694
are bound by that until june 1st, but

1509
01:33:48,894 --> 01:33:53,694
after that, they can choose to honor that

1510
01:33:53,894 --> 01:33:56,894
or not. Secondly, I believe their base

1511
01:33:56,894 --> 01:34:01,694
bid is what we identified the low bidder

1512
01:34:01,894 --> 01:34:05,494
on is about $100,000 over. If we

1513
01:34:05,894 --> 01:34:09,494
included the two alternates that were

1514
01:34:09,834 --> 01:34:13,434
included which were the colorization of

1515
01:34:13,834 --> 01:34:16,834
the basketball court and added the

1516
01:34:16,834 --> 01:34:18,834
drinking fountain then it would be

1517
01:34:18,834 --> 01:34:21,834
$100,000 over the amount by goodland.

1518
01:34:23,834 --> 01:34:25,834
the third and fourth contractor is a

1519
01:34:25,834 --> 01:34:28,834
little bit above on the base, but the

1520
01:34:28,834 --> 01:34:30,834
alternates are lower so their net total

1521
01:34:30,834 --> 01:34:32,834
would be less than $150,000.

1522
01:34:32,834 --> 01:34:34,834
>> okay, thank you.

1523
01:34:48,834 --> 01:34:50,834
>> madam mayor, the additional

1524
01:34:50,834 --> 01:34:54,434
requirements you would impose on them,

1525
01:34:55,834 --> 01:34:57,834
would those be included in the main

1526
01:34:57,834 --> 01:35:02,634
motion or in the amendment we would have

1527
01:35:02,834 --> 01:35:04,834
to add?

1528
01:35:15,774 --> 01:35:17,774
>> I can answer that question. It would

1529
01:35:17,774 --> 01:35:18,774
need to be added.

1530
01:35:18,774 --> 01:35:24,174
>> if I can ask the city attorney, are you

1531
01:35:27,774 --> 01:35:32,574
okay with the language on what we would

1532
01:35:36,774 --> 01:35:37,774
require by goodland as proposed by the

1533
01:35:37,774 --> 01:35:38,774
mayor.

1534
01:35:38,774 --> 01:35:42,974
>> I think the paragraph we are referring

1535
01:35:43,774 --> 01:35:47,974
to just for clarification would be it's

1536
01:35:57,774 --> 01:35:59,774
in the staff report there is a section

1537
01:35:59,774 --> 01:36:03,374
called award contracts to goodland and

1538
01:36:05,774 --> 01:36:10,574
the last part of that report under no. 1

1539
01:36:11,714 --> 01:36:14,714
says: in dispute of a memo, the city

1540
01:36:14,714 --> 01:36:18,714
remedy is available in the event of a

1541
01:36:18,714 --> 01:36:21,714
contract breach, and in addition the city

1542
01:36:21,714 --> 01:36:25,314
could require copy of payroll submittals

1543
01:36:25,714 --> 01:36:27,714
and apprenticeship of ds 140 and

1544
01:36:27,714 --> 01:36:30,714
consistent with the labor code

1545
01:36:30,714 --> 01:36:31,714
requirement without exemption submitted

1546
01:36:31,714 --> 01:36:33,714
directly to the state also be submitted

1547
01:36:33,714 --> 01:36:36,714
to the city project manager.

1548
01:36:38,714 --> 01:36:42,914
who would that be, by the wa?

1549
01:36:43,714 --> 01:36:47,314
>> the field manager is the department

1550
01:36:47,714 --> 01:36:48,714
staff.

1551
01:36:48,714 --> 01:36:49,714
>> okay.

1552
01:36:49,714 --> 01:36:50,714
>> I believe your motion would be to

1553
01:36:50,714 --> 01:36:53,714
approve the contract with the addition of

1554
01:36:53,714 --> 01:36:58,514
that language from the report in terms of

1555
01:37:00,714 --> 01:37:02,714
those forms that is sufficient to change

1556
01:37:02,714 --> 01:37:03,714
the agreement.

1557
01:37:03,714 --> 01:37:06,714
>> former mayor rick bonilla: I have

1558
01:37:06,714 --> 01:37:10,314
more questions. Does mr. Mason have

1559
01:37:12,714 --> 01:37:14,714
experience with certified payrolls.

1560
01:37:14,714 --> 01:37:17,714
>> he's been employed with the city for

1561
01:37:17,714 --> 01:37:21,314
30 years and his job has been

1562
01:37:21,714 --> 01:37:23,714
construction management. She'll have a

1563
01:37:23,714 --> 01:37:27,714
better idea of what his role is.

1564
01:37:27,714 --> 01:37:30,714
>> thank you, sheila, parks and

1565
01:37:30,714 --> 01:37:31,714
recreation. As mentioned ron has been

1566
01:37:31,714 --> 01:37:34,714
with us for about 30 years and prior to

1567
01:37:34,714 --> 01:37:38,714
coming to san mateo has also worked as a

1568
01:37:38,714 --> 01:37:42,314
job site superintendent for the valley

1569
01:37:42,714 --> 01:37:45,714
landscape when he was on the private

1570
01:37:45,714 --> 01:37:47,714
side. Specifically speaking to that, I

1571
01:37:47,714 --> 01:37:48,714
don't know. Before the certified

1572
01:37:48,714 --> 01:37:52,714
payrolls were sent to the state, the city

1573
01:37:52,714 --> 01:37:55,714
accepted those, so I'm suspecting that on

1574
01:37:55,714 --> 01:37:57,714
previous jobs those came to ron to review

1575
01:37:57,714 --> 01:38:00,714
before they were sent directly to the

1576
01:38:00,714 --> 01:38:04,714
state. But I don't know the time frames

1577
01:38:04,714 --> 01:38:07,714
when that might have happened.

1578
01:38:07,714 --> 01:38:12,654
>> okay, so let me ask you, do you know

1579
01:38:12,654 --> 01:38:14,654
what happens after certified payroll

1580
01:38:14,654 --> 01:38:16,654
reports get to the state?

1581
01:38:16,654 --> 01:38:21,454
>> no, I don't believe I'm aware of it.

1582
01:38:21,654 --> 01:38:23,654
>> okay.

1583
01:38:23,654 --> 01:38:26,654
>> okay, having worked in that field for

1584
01:38:26,654 --> 01:38:29,654
quite a while and done a lot of this,

1585
01:38:29,654 --> 01:38:33,254
nothing happens unless someone is out

1586
01:38:33,654 --> 01:38:37,254
there checking an monitoring jobs and

1587
01:38:38,654 --> 01:38:40,654
files a complaint. Unless someone files

1588
01:38:40,654 --> 01:38:43,654
a complaint and they get examined. If we

1589
01:38:43,654 --> 01:38:45,654
are dealing with the reports ourselves

1590
01:38:45,654 --> 01:38:49,654
and we have somebody here who knows how

1591
01:38:49,654 --> 01:38:53,854
to read and interprets those and knows

1592
01:38:55,654 --> 01:38:58,654
the violation, that would make no sense.

1593
01:38:58,654 --> 01:39:01,654
we can hire someone to do that, but we

1594
01:39:01,654 --> 01:39:04,654
have nobody here that can do that. It's

1595
01:39:04,654 --> 01:39:08,254
not been our function, our project

1596
01:39:08,654 --> 01:39:11,594
manager's don't do that, that's not his

1597
01:39:11,594 --> 01:39:14,594
job. All he did was require them to turn

1598
01:39:14,594 --> 01:39:17,594
them in and he turns them into somebody

1599
01:39:17,594 --> 01:39:21,594
else. That's all there is to it. All I'm

1600
01:39:21,594 --> 01:39:23,594
saying if we really stand by the

1601
01:39:23,594 --> 01:39:28,394
prevailing wage laws and we want to do

1602
01:39:28,594 --> 01:39:33,394
business in an honest and open way, then

1603
01:39:33,594 --> 01:39:38,394
we find someone who has not violated and

1604
01:39:42,594 --> 01:39:44,594
they have to follow the standards under

1605
01:39:44,594 --> 01:39:45,594
the law.

1606
01:39:45,594 --> 01:39:48,594
>> if I might add a comment. We have not

1607
01:39:48,594 --> 01:39:50,594
done due diligence on the next to low

1608
01:39:50,594 --> 01:39:52,594
bidders, I can't say with any certainty

1609
01:39:52,594 --> 01:39:57,394
that the next three bidders are going to

1610
01:40:02,594 --> 01:40:06,794
turn up clean at all without any

1611
01:40:07,594 --> 01:40:08,594
violations.

1612
01:40:08,594 --> 01:40:12,534
>> thank you. That's already a part of

1613
01:40:12,534 --> 01:40:15,534
doing business. Unless we ask them ahead

1614
01:40:15,534 --> 01:40:19,534
of time if they have had any violations

1615
01:40:19,534 --> 01:40:22,534
which is what we want to maybe look into

1616
01:40:22,534 --> 01:40:23,534
doing.

1617
01:40:23,534 --> 01:40:25,534
>> are we good?

1618
01:40:26,534 --> 01:40:28,534
>> well, my feeling is this. I want you

1619
01:40:28,534 --> 01:40:30,534
to know where I'm leaning with this.

1620
01:40:30,534 --> 01:40:35,334
I don't see any wage violations in this

1621
01:40:36,534 --> 01:40:37,534
particularly contractor's history, and I

1622
01:40:37,534 --> 01:40:41,734
think there are protections that we have

1623
01:40:42,534 --> 01:40:45,534
to ensure there aren't going to be wage

1624
01:40:45,534 --> 01:40:48,534
violations on this job. He's done a lot

1625
01:40:48,534 --> 01:40:51,534
of public works jobs and I don't see any

1626
01:40:51,534 --> 01:40:55,134
issues. With the apprentice issues, we

1627
01:40:55,534 --> 01:40:58,534
can have some oversight to make sure that

1628
01:40:58,534 --> 01:41:01,534
happens. When I see the potential for

1629
01:41:01,534 --> 01:41:05,134
that and an additional $80,000 we can

1630
01:41:07,534 --> 01:41:08,534
protect that. Inasmuch as I don't want

1631
01:41:08,534 --> 01:41:13,474
to, not that I don't want to, but I want

1632
01:41:13,474 --> 01:41:17,474
to be sympathetic to those concerns, but

1633
01:41:17,474 --> 01:41:18,474
when I weigh it with the potential and

1634
01:41:18,474 --> 01:41:21,474
the protections and the price

1635
01:41:23,474 --> 01:41:24,474
differential, I'm leaning with the

1636
01:41:24,474 --> 01:41:26,474
approval towards the protections. That's

1637
01:41:26,474 --> 01:41:30,474
kind of the process that I went through.

1638
01:41:30,474 --> 01:41:32,474
>> yeah, I went through all the

1639
01:41:32,474 --> 01:41:36,674
documents. I read them all, all the

1640
01:41:42,474 --> 01:41:44,474
letters, the e-mails and I regulate that

1641
01:41:44,474 --> 01:41:47,474
this came up and we had to regulate this

1642
01:41:47,474 --> 01:41:52,274
and I think it's appropriate the city did

1643
01:41:55,474 --> 01:41:57,474
its due diligence, but I'm not convinced

1644
01:41:57,474 --> 01:42:00,474
that there is enough strong evidence to

1645
01:42:00,474 --> 01:42:04,740
deny this construction and ensure that

1646
01:42:04,474 --> 01:42:06,474
additional $100,000. I think we have a

1647
01:42:06,474 --> 01:42:09,474
fiduciary responsibility to our community

1648
01:42:10,414 --> 01:42:13,414
as well is to protect their interest to

1649
01:42:13,414 --> 01:42:16,414
do the job the best way we can in a

1650
01:42:16,414 --> 01:42:19,414
financial and feasible way. I appreciate

1651
01:42:19,414 --> 01:42:23,140
the city attorney gave us sufficient

1652
01:42:24,414 --> 01:42:26,414
remedies for a breach of contract. I

1653
01:42:26,414 --> 01:42:30,140
think we can with some additional

1654
01:42:31,414 --> 01:42:32,414
requirements of additional submittals to

1655
01:42:32,414 --> 01:42:33,414
police this in a way that will meet our

1656
01:42:33,414 --> 01:42:37,614
requirements, and I think we've had a

1657
01:42:38,414 --> 01:42:41,414
relationship with goodland in the past

1658
01:42:41,414 --> 01:42:44,414
without any issues. I'm hoping that they

1659
01:42:44,414 --> 01:42:46,414
are kind of on noticed that they are

1660
01:42:46,414 --> 01:42:47,414
going to be watched on this project and

1661
01:42:47,414 --> 01:42:49,414
we can't have any problems and that we

1662
01:42:49,414 --> 01:42:52,414
can move forward and get this done. My

1663
01:42:52,414 --> 01:42:56,614
concern is also a filter and changing

1664
01:42:57,414 --> 01:42:59,414
their dollars we see and money is going

1665
01:42:59,414 --> 01:43:01,414
up all the time for construction

1666
01:43:01,414 --> 01:43:03,414
projects. We are trying to get this done

1667
01:43:03,414 --> 01:43:06,414
in the most efficient and cost-efficient

1668
01:43:06,414 --> 01:43:09,354
way we can. I'm leaning towards going

1669
01:43:09,354 --> 01:43:13,554
with the award to goodland with the

1670
01:43:16,354 --> 01:43:18,354
protections in place.

1671
01:43:19,354 --> 01:43:23,354
>> I'm in favor of moving forward with

1672
01:43:23,354 --> 01:43:26,954
going with goodland with the protection

1673
01:43:27,354 --> 01:43:29,354
in place. The $100,000, I would rather be

1674
01:43:29,354 --> 01:43:32,354
spent on our parks and kids if we are

1675
01:43:32,354 --> 01:43:35,354
spending more than we have to, let's put

1676
01:43:35,354 --> 01:43:40,154
it to good use. I think goodland knows

1677
01:43:46,354 --> 01:43:49,354
they are going to be watched like a hawk,

1678
01:43:49,354 --> 01:43:54,354
and I think it's time the kids get their

1679
01:43:54,354 --> 01:43:55,354
park and we stop playing politics and is

1680
01:43:55,354 --> 01:43:58,954
that are the the project already.

1681
01:44:04,354 --> 01:44:07,354
>> former mayor rick bonilla: playing

1682
01:44:08,354 --> 01:44:11,294
politics? I'm sorry, we have to state nd

1683
01:44:11,294 --> 01:44:13,294
up for something and these are the laws.

1684
01:44:13,294 --> 01:44:16,294
we are a public works employer. We

1685
01:44:16,294 --> 01:44:18,294
create projects and it's always been our

1686
01:44:18,294 --> 01:44:21,294
value that we make sure we get people

1687
01:44:21,294 --> 01:44:24,294
here who follow the law. Now, anybody can

1688
01:44:24,294 --> 01:44:27,294
bid these projects, that is the law,

1689
01:44:27,294 --> 01:44:29,294
anybody can. But if you are implying

1690
01:44:29,294 --> 01:44:31,294
that I'm playing politics, you are going

1691
01:44:31,294 --> 01:44:34,294
up the wrong tree. That's it. I think

1692
01:44:34,294 --> 01:44:36,294
you know my position. Thank you.

1693
01:44:36,294 --> 01:44:41,294
>> so what I look for is a motion in

1694
01:44:41,294 --> 01:44:44,294
making the motion, if whoever makes the

1695
01:44:44,294 --> 01:44:46,294
motion reads the language after option 1,

1696
01:44:46,294 --> 01:44:50,294
up to where it gets to option 2 to make

1697
01:44:50,294 --> 01:44:53,294
sure we have a clear record as to what

1698
01:44:53,294 --> 01:44:54,294
the council's decision is.

1699
01:44:54,294 --> 01:44:58,494
>> what was the last part, I'm sorry,

1700
01:44:59,294 --> 01:45:00,294
option 1 and in the end?

1701
01:45:00,294 --> 01:45:05,940
>> if you look at the agenda, it says

1702
01:45:06,294 --> 01:45:08,294
option 1, adopt a resolution and the

1703
01:45:08,294 --> 01:45:09,234
language that follows. If whoever makes

1704
01:45:09,234 --> 01:45:11,234
the motion reads that language up to the

1705
01:45:11,234 --> 01:45:15,434
point where it says not to exceed $80,000.

1706
01:45:17,234 --> 01:45:18,234
>> okay.

1707
01:45:18,234 --> 01:45:21,234
>> that way it will capture all the

1708
01:45:21,234 --> 01:45:23,234
actions that the council is approving.

1709
01:45:23,234 --> 01:45:26,834
>> would it have the protections in

1710
01:45:27,234 --> 01:45:28,234
there?

1711
01:45:28,234 --> 01:45:32,234
>> then add from the paragraph from the

1712
01:45:32,234 --> 01:45:33,234
staff report.

1713
01:45:33,234 --> 01:45:37,434
>> all right. I will make the motion.

1714
01:45:38,234 --> 01:45:41,234
>> adopt a resolution to find that the

1715
01:45:41,234 --> 01:45:42,234
cooperative program is in the best

1716
01:45:42,234 --> 01:45:46,234
interest of the city, to install this

1717
01:45:46,234 --> 01:45:49,834
king park and approve two agreements,

1718
01:45:51,234 --> 01:45:53,234

01:46:24,174 --> 01:46:27,174
either or both contracts in an aggregate

1726
01:46:27,174 --> 01:46:30,774
amount not to exceed $80,000 and the

1727
01:46:34,174 --> 01:46:38,374
remedies available in a contract be set

1728
01:46:39,174 --> 01:46:42,174
forth in attachment 7 and the city

requires that all papers and submittals

1730

>> second.

1736
01:47:04,174 --> 01:47:05,174
>> all right. All in favor say, "aye".

1737
01:47:05,174 --> 01:47:06,174
>> aye.

1738
01:47:06,174 --> 01:47:08,174
>> any opposed?

1739
01:47:08,174 --> 01:47:10,174
>> no.

1740
01:47:12,174 --> 01:47:15,174
>> abstentions? That motion passes 4-1.

01:47:15,174 --> 01:47:19,974
okay, we will move on to bonds, bonds,

1742
01:47:33,174 --> 01:47:37,374
bonds. Mr. Lee, welcome. Is that mic

1743
01:47:40,174 --> 01:47:42,174
working?

1744
01:47:42,174 --> 01:47:43,174
>> yes.

1745
01:47:43,174 --> 01:47:47,374
>> okay, take us through the bond sales.

1746
01:47:49,174 --> 01:47:52,174
>> good evening. The finances director.

1747
01:47:52,174 --> 01:47:56,174
this item before you is for clean water

1748
01:47:56,174 --> 01:47:58,174
program costs bond sale.

1749
01:47:58,174 --> 01:48:01,174
the clean water program in february of

1750
01:48:01,174 --> 01:48:05,374
2016, the san mateo foster city of public

1751
01:48:06,174 --> 01:48:09,774
finance authority was formed and in 2017,

1752
01:48:11,114 --> 01:48:14,114
the council adopted a reimbursement

1753
01:48:16,114 --> 01:48:19,114
resolution to capture finances incurred

1754
01:48:20,114 --> 01:48:22,114
and this is for approval of the bond

1755
01:48:22,114 --> 01:48:26,114
sale. In about 12 hours from now, the

1756
01:48:26,114 --> 01:48:29,714
city staff, our consultants, staff from

1757
01:48:30,114 --> 01:48:32,114
the municipal improvement district will

1758
01:48:32,114 --> 01:48:36,114
meet at the beginning of bond rating of

1759
01:48:36,114 --> 01:48:39,114
san francisco and to mood easy. May of

1760
01:48:39,114 --> 01:48:42,114
2019, will be actually first going to the

1761
01:48:42,114 --> 01:48:44,114
public financing authority board for

1762
01:48:44,114 --> 01:48:47,114
approval of the sale, then we'll be going

1763
01:48:47,114 --> 01:48:49,114
through pricing and closing. So those are

1764
01:48:49,114 --> 01:48:52,714
the major milestones for the financing.

1765
01:48:53,114 --> 01:48:57,914
we are looking an as the council is

1766
01:49:00,114 --> 01:49:03,114
well aware and as the chart shows, $830

1767
01:49:03,114 --> 01:49:07,114
million ass the cities share of the cost

1768
01:49:07,114 --> 01:49:10,114
allocation or roughly 84% and the

1769
01:49:11,540 --> 01:49:14,540
remainder. The table before you shows

1770
01:49:14,540 --> 01:49:18,540
the use of a particular interest. The

1771
01:49:18,540 --> 01:49:22,854
bond uses for the entire program rests at

1772
01:49:27,540 --> 01:49:30,654
about $503 million. And the program was

1773
01:49:32,540 --> 01:49:35,540
discussed in greater detail and finally

1774
01:49:35,540 --> 01:49:37,540
cash that is generated through these

1775
01:49:37,540 --> 01:49:39,540
service charges. In terms of uses, as you

1776
01:49:39,540 --> 01:49:44,540
can see the lion share is for the clean

1777
01:49:44,540 --> 01:49:45,540
water program, $807 million and the

1778
01:49:45,540 --> 01:49:48,540
portion is to repay the line of credit

1779
01:49:48,540 --> 01:49:51,540
that the city has with stage street. One

1780
01:49:51,540 --> 01:49:54,540
important item to note for federal

1781
01:49:54,540 --> 01:49:56,540
securities laws in attachment 2 of the

1782
01:49:56,540 --> 01:49:58,540
administrative report is the preliminary

1783
01:49:58,540 --> 01:50:01,540
official statement. It really reflected

1784
01:50:10,994 --> 01:50:15,794
hercule an effort with appendix a and c,

1785
01:50:15,994 --> 01:50:17,994
appendix c is the disclosure or our

1786
01:50:17,994 --> 01:50:20,994
opportunity to provide information while

1787
01:50:21,994 --> 01:50:24,994
the debt has already been issued. The

1788
01:50:24,994 --> 01:50:28,994
bottom line is we ask the council to

1789
01:50:28,994 --> 01:50:29,994
review the preliminary statement and

1790
01:50:29,994 --> 01:50:32,994
there is information by the city to a key

1791
01:50:32,994 --> 01:50:34,994
to a reasonable investor in their

1792
01:50:34,994 --> 01:50:38,594
determination whether or not they want

1793
01:50:38,994 --> 01:50:41,994
to buy or sell the bonds. So the

1794
01:50:41,994 --> 01:50:42,994
recommendation before you this evening,

1795
01:50:42,994 --> 01:50:45,994
there is a number of items. First that

1796
01:50:45,994 --> 01:50:50,794
the council a sentence n assents to the

1797
01:50:54,994 --> 01:50:56,994
san mateo city for the bonds and the loan

1798
01:50:56,994 --> 01:50:59,994
for the city. The city only pays its

1799
01:50:59,994 --> 01:51:04,194
share of the actual debt. The continuing

1800
01:51:05,994 --> 01:51:07,994
disclosure to make disclosures to

1801
01:51:07,994 --> 01:51:10,934
investors is in the preliminary c

1802
01:51:10,934 --> 01:51:12,934
official statement and the bonding for

1803
01:51:12,934 --> 01:51:14,934
the 2019 bonds. We ask that you approve

1804
01:51:14,934 --> 01:51:17,934
and authorize distribution of the

1805
01:51:18,934 --> 01:51:20,934
official statement. Approve all

1806
01:51:20,934 --> 01:51:22,934
documents and substantially the form

1807
01:51:22,934 --> 01:51:24,934
presented and approve all related

1808
01:51:24,934 --> 01:51:27,934
documents and actions. This concludes my

1809
01:51:27,934 --> 01:51:31,534
presentation. I happy to answer any

1810
01:51:31,934 --> 01:51:32,934
questions.

1811
01:51:32,934 --> 01:51:37,134
>> so it is that the financing authority

1812
01:51:37,934 --> 01:51:38,934
and that's made up of the district and

1813
01:51:38,934 --> 01:51:39,934
the city, right?

1814
01:51:39,934 --> 01:51:41,934
>> that's correct.

1815
01:51:41,934 --> 01:51:45,934
>> they are going to get the bonds,

1816
01:51:45,934 --> 01:51:46,934
right?

1817
01:51:46,934 --> 01:51:48,934
>> correct.

1818
01:51:49,934 --> 01:51:51,934
>> and then the financing authority

1819
01:51:51,934 --> 01:51:53,934
actually loans the money to the city to

1820
01:51:53,934 --> 01:51:56,934
do the work and we pay the financing

1821
01:51:56,934 --> 01:51:58,934
authority back and they pay the bond

1822
01:51:58,934 --> 01:51:59,934
market back, right?

1823
01:51:59,934 --> 01:52:01,934
>> that's correct. That is essentially

1824
01:52:01,934 --> 01:52:04,934
what item no. 2 is which is the financing

1825
01:52:04,934 --> 01:52:06,934
agreement between the city an at anied

1826
01:52:06,934 --> 01:52:08,874
financing authority.

1827
01:52:08,874 --> 01:52:10,874
>> that's how we get the money?

1828
01:52:10,874 --> 01:52:12,874
>> right.

1829
01:52:12,874 --> 01:52:15,874
>> okay. And then just trying to see,

1830
01:52:15,874 --> 01:52:20,740
one more question about the obligation to

1831
01:52:21,874 --> 01:52:23,874
make annual disclosures. Is that on a set

1832
01:52:23,874 --> 01:52:26,874
date every year that we must do that and

1833
01:52:26,874 --> 01:52:27,874
how does that work?

1834
01:52:27,874 --> 01:52:30,874
>> yes, there is two items that are

1835
01:52:30,874 --> 01:52:32,874
principally included in the disclosure.

1836
01:52:32,874 --> 01:52:36,474
first is the cities comprehensive annual

1837
01:52:36,874 --> 01:52:38,874
financial report or cafr, we typically

1838
01:52:38,874 --> 01:52:40,874
issue that in november or perhaps

1839
01:52:40,874 --> 01:52:44,474
december in order to maintain compliance

1840
01:52:46,874 --> 01:52:49,874
with our with bonds. We upload that

1841
01:52:49,874 --> 01:52:54,674
information and we have a consult that up

1842
01:52:54,874 --> 01:52:59,674
loads that document to the first part of

1843
01:52:59,874 --> 01:53:01,874
containing the disclosure.

1844
01:53:02,874 --> 01:53:05,874
>> another question, is it the deputy

1845
01:53:05,874 --> 01:53:09,814
mayor that signed off own that before it

1846
01:53:09,814 --> 01:53:10,814
happens or no?

1847
01:53:10,814 --> 01:53:11,814
>> on the financial statement?

1848
01:53:11,814 --> 01:53:15,814
>> the one you do every year or is that

1849
01:53:15,814 --> 01:53:16,814
the audit?

1850
01:53:16,814 --> 01:53:18,814
>> the financial statement is presented

1851
01:53:18,814 --> 01:53:20,814
to council for approval each fiscal year

1852
01:53:20,814 --> 01:53:24,814
in order to be considered for the

1853
01:53:24,814 --> 01:53:27,814
government finance officer's award. We

1854
01:53:27,814 --> 01:53:30,814
submit that no later december 31st for

1855
01:53:30,814 --> 01:53:32,814
each year, but for compliance purposes

1856
01:53:32,814 --> 01:53:37,140
for the bond requirements, there is a

1857
01:53:37,814 --> 01:53:39,814
deadline of march 31st of each year.

1858
01:53:39,814 --> 01:53:43,814
>> okay. Did you want to say something

1859
01:53:43,814 --> 01:53:45,814
else, I'm sorry, I interrupted you. There

1860
01:53:45,814 --> 01:53:48,814
was a second part to it.

1861
01:53:48,814 --> 01:53:53,614
>> yes, the second part is to report the

1862
01:53:54,814 --> 01:53:56,814
coverage requirements. Our existing debt

1863
01:53:56,814 --> 01:54:00,814
there is a 1.2 ratio on the net and

1864
01:54:00,814 --> 01:54:03,814
existing debt service. As long as there

1865
01:54:03,814 --> 01:54:07,814
is a 1.2 ratio, then we are in compliance

1866
01:54:07,814 --> 01:54:12,614
and that will remain true for debt which

1867
01:54:12,754 --> 01:54:16,754
is what we are asking for council this

1868
01:54:16,754 --> 01:54:17,754
evening.

1869
01:54:17,754 --> 01:54:20,754
>> okay. Public comment? They are not

1870
01:54:20,754 --> 01:54:21,754
lined up?

1871
01:54:21,754 --> 01:54:22,754
>> okay.

1872
01:54:22,754 --> 01:54:23,754
>> make a motion to approve.

1873
01:54:23,754 --> 01:54:26,754
>> we are going to sign our lives away

1874
01:54:26,754 --> 01:54:27,754
momentarily.

1875
01:54:27,754 --> 01:54:28,754
>> in making the motion, if you would

1876
01:54:28,754 --> 01:54:30,754
read the language.

1877
01:54:30,754 --> 01:54:32,754
>> okay, let me apply my glasses.

1878
01:54:32,754 --> 01:54:33,754
>> thank you.

1879
01:54:33,754 --> 01:54:37,354
>> adopt a resolution to approve, one,

>>> how many do you want? Six? Have

>> captain norris, chief at the police

1903
01:56:12,634 --> 01:56:16,834
department. Someone is here to back me

1904
01:56:18,634 --> 01:56:19,634
up. Madam mayor, council, thank you for

1905
01:56:19,634 --> 01:56:21,634
listening to us today. The item that you

1906
01:56:21,634 --> 01:56:26,634
have on today is to adopt a resolution to

1907
01:56:26,634 --> 01:56:29,634
use alternative purchasing method to

1908
01:56:30,634 --> 01:56:34,834
approve an agreement with neology for the

1909
01:56:45,634 --> 01:56:47,634
procurement of six automated license

1910
01:56:47,634 --> 01:56:49,634
plate readers for the san mateo police

1911
01:56:49,634 --> 01:56:52,634
department in the amount of $108,124.30.

1912
01:57:04,634 --> 01:57:06,634
appropriate $72,718.53. From the

1913
01:57:06,634 --> 01:57:09,634
available balance of the measure s fund

1914
01:57:09,634 --> 01:57:11,634
and authorize the chief of police to

1915
01:57:11,634 --> 01:57:13,634
execute the agreement.

1916
01:57:15,634 --> 01:57:19,834
there is an property crime epidemic in

1917
01:57:29,634 --> 01:57:35,340
california, and as we try to tam p down

1918
01:57:37,634 --> 01:57:39,634
on that are those that are committing

1919
01:57:39,634 --> 01:57:43,634
crimes that are coming across the bridge

1920
01:57:43,634 --> 01:57:45,634
and working their way up the peninsula

1921
01:57:45,634 --> 01:57:47,634
and hitting pretty much every city in

1922
01:57:47,634 --> 01:57:51,834
between. There are two dwrafs graphs on

1923
01:57:55,634 --> 01:57:59,634
the first slide and one showing specifics

1924
01:57:59,634 --> 01:58:02,634
and the auto burglaries which we know are

1925
01:58:02,634 --> 01:58:04,634
very high right now which is that top

1926
01:58:04,634 --> 01:58:10,574
line in the red and the one in the middle

1927
01:58:10,574 --> 01:58:12,574
is the stolen vehicles which continue to

1928
01:58:12,574 --> 01:58:16,574
rise. I wanted to highlight those because

1929
01:58:16,574 --> 01:58:18,574
these are particularly effective with

1930
01:58:18,574 --> 01:58:22,574
stolen vehicles. So you all have the

1931
01:58:22,574 --> 01:58:24,574
city and safe and secure neighborhoods.

1932
01:58:24,574 --> 01:58:28,574
a big part of that was to levy the

1933
01:58:28,574 --> 01:58:30,574
technology resources and to maximize the

1934
01:58:30,574 --> 01:58:34,174
effectiveness out there and to indicate

1935
01:58:35,574 --> 01:58:38,574
these property crimes. Automated license

1936
01:58:38,574 --> 01:58:40,574
readers are a resource for police

1937
01:58:40,574 --> 01:58:43,574
strategies. They are really just a faster

1938
01:58:43,574 --> 01:58:45,574
version of what officers have been doing

1939
01:58:45,574 --> 01:58:47,574
for decades. I put an example in there.

1940
01:58:47,574 --> 01:58:51,174
some of you may recognize that. 5/23/68

1941
01:59:05,574 --> 01:59:09,774
is a description. Dark green vw karman

1942
01:59:16,514 --> 01:59:18,514
ghia. That takes that basic description

1943
01:59:18,514 --> 01:59:20,514
and information and compares it with

1944
01:59:20,514 --> 01:59:23,514
other data. So we are in an era right

1945
01:59:23,514 --> 01:59:27,714
now, we are in neighboring agencies and

1946
01:59:28,514 --> 01:59:31,514
cities are in their jurisdictions and we

1947
01:59:31,514 --> 01:59:33,514
need to be competitive with that,

1948
01:59:33,514 --> 01:59:36,514
otherwise we maybe more vulnerable than

1949
01:59:36,514 --> 01:59:38,514
some of those jurisdictions. There is a

1950
01:59:38,514 --> 01:59:41,514
lot of detail on this page. I want to hit

1951
01:59:41,514 --> 01:59:45,514
the highlights for you. We have two

1952
01:59:45,514 --> 01:59:47,514
vehicles in operation since 2011. They

1953
01:59:47,514 --> 01:59:49,514
have been in operation for 8 years which

1954
01:59:49,514 --> 01:59:52,514
is a really long time in terms of

1955
01:59:52,514 --> 01:59:53,514
technology and equipment. And operating

1956
01:59:53,514 --> 01:59:57,714
on that same equipment. The data from

1957
01:59:58,514 --> 02:00:02,114
those are located to the northern

1958
02:00:04,514 --> 02:00:06,514
california regional intelligence center

1959
02:00:06,514 --> 02:00:11,914
data base where we store all of that data

1960
02:00:13,454 --> 02:00:14,454
under strict guidelines and there is

1961
02:00:14,454 --> 02:00:19,254
access to which we get those is highly

1962
02:00:19,454 --> 02:00:22,454
controlled. Only authorized and train

1963
02:00:24,454 --> 02:00:27,454
personnel are indicating a legitimate

1964
02:00:28,454 --> 02:00:31,454
purpose can access that system so it's

1965
02:00:31,454 --> 02:00:34,454
very audible and very secure. We have a

1966
02:00:34,454 --> 02:00:36,854
record service agreement in

1967
02:00:41,454 --> 02:00:44,454
the county and our officers use this data

1968
02:00:44,454 --> 02:00:46,454
base daily to investigate crimes. We

1969
02:00:46,454 --> 02:00:49,454
meet all the legal compliance and we have

1970
02:00:49,454 --> 02:00:51,454
policies and procedures in place to make

1971
02:00:51,454 --> 02:00:54,454
sure we are handling that data in the

1972
02:00:54,454 --> 02:00:56,454
most professional manner possible.

1973
02:00:56,454 --> 02:00:59,454
with the approval of the purchase gets

1974
02:00:59,454 --> 02:01:02,454
for us today, we'll be updating the

1975
02:01:02,454 --> 02:01:06,540
equipment on our 2 current arpr vehicles,

1976
02:01:06,454 --> 02:01:10,540
we'll be adding two additional arpr

1977
02:01:10,394 --> 02:01:13,394
vehicles to that number and also

1978
02:01:13,394 --> 02:01:16,394
outfitting two mobile message trailers

1979
02:01:17,394 --> 02:01:21,394
and it gives us a flexible option. We can

1980
02:01:21,394 --> 02:01:24,394
place those on hot spots and place those

1981
02:01:24,394 --> 02:01:26,394
strategically for events and management

1982
02:01:26,394 --> 02:01:27,394
situations and it gives us what we

1983
02:01:27,394 --> 02:01:30,394
consider to be a good proof of concept

1984
02:01:30,394 --> 02:01:35,394
for what will be what I would guess a

1985
02:01:35,394 --> 02:01:37,394
request for the future for what cities

1986
02:01:37,394 --> 02:01:40,394
are doing and be able to put this in

1987
02:01:40,394 --> 02:01:45,194
locations to gather the data and get the

1988
02:01:45,394 --> 02:01:47,394
concepts for how that data will work.

1989
02:01:47,394 --> 02:01:50,394
this is to give you a quick example. I

1990
02:01:50,394 --> 02:01:54,394
took 5 minutes out of the day and went

1991
02:01:54,394 --> 02:01:57,394
through the last 60 days searching

1992
02:01:57,394 --> 02:02:00,394
e-mails and came up with five great

1993
02:02:00,394 --> 02:02:04,594
examples and came up with how license

1994
02:02:06,394 --> 02:02:09,334
readers help us. There was a suspect

1995
02:02:09,334 --> 02:02:12,334
identified in a road rage in san bruno

1996
02:02:12,334 --> 02:02:17,334
and you know in the month of february for

1997
02:02:17,334 --> 02:02:20,334
an arson murder case and we accurately

1998
02:02:20,334 --> 02:02:24,334
identified a suspect in that case. A

1999
02:02:24,334 --> 02:02:27,334
commercial crew in fresno gets

2000
02:02:28,334 --> 02:02:30,334
communicated to california, and a murder

2001
02:02:30,334 --> 02:02:34,334
case out of danville and east bay case

2002
02:02:34,334 --> 02:02:37,334
about home invasion. All of those cases

2003
02:02:37,334 --> 02:02:39,334
were flyers and I extracted a lot of the

2004
02:02:39,334 --> 02:02:43,334
information out of it because a lot of

2005
02:02:43,334 --> 02:02:46,334
them are active cases. But flyers coming

2006
02:02:46,334 --> 02:02:48,334
from other agencies that they have

2007
02:02:48,334 --> 02:02:51,334
identified a suspect based on arp data

2008
02:02:51,334 --> 02:02:56,134
with access to vehicles that allows us to

2009
02:02:57,334 --> 02:03:00,334
investigate those cases. I have a couple

2010
02:03:00,334 --> 02:03:04,534
of pages about why this technology is

2011
02:03:08,274 --> 02:03:09,274
essential.

2012
02:03:09,274 --> 02:03:13,274
the alpr's are being used actively by all

2013
02:03:13,274 --> 02:03:15,274
levels of our departments, by the

2014
02:03:15,274 --> 02:03:18,874
officers on the streets, our detectives

2015
02:03:22,274 --> 02:03:27,740
and they are using all of this technology

2016
02:03:28,274 --> 02:03:33,740
from other areas and they can shorten the

2017
02:03:35,274 --> 02:03:37,274
investigation time and operational period

2018
02:03:37,274 --> 02:03:39,274
an get to the suspect identification if

2019
02:03:39,274 --> 02:03:43,474
they had more from the local alpr

2020
02:03:44,274 --> 02:03:46,274
sources. We have a lot of community

2021
02:03:46,274 --> 02:03:48,274
meeting with coffee with the cop meetings

2022
02:03:48,274 --> 02:03:50,274
and social media. A lot of folks in our

2023
02:03:50,274 --> 02:03:52,274
neighborhood are saying they have a very

2024
02:03:52,274 --> 02:03:55,274
high approval of the alpr systems and

2025
02:03:55,274 --> 02:04:00,274
what they do for laughed and I have not

2026
02:04:00,274 --> 02:04:03,874
heard any negative commentary on that.

2027
02:04:07,274 --> 02:04:10,214
and throughout the agencies nationwide,

2028
02:04:10,214 --> 02:04:15,614
they say that is a deterrent to crime. I

2029
02:04:17,214 --> 02:04:20,214
know I rambled through all of this. If

2030
02:04:20,214 --> 02:04:22,214
you have any questions.

2031
02:04:22,214 --> 02:04:25,214
>> how soon can these things be

2032
02:04:25,214 --> 02:04:26,214
delivered?

2033
02:04:26,214 --> 02:04:28,214
>> it was 7 minutes.

2034
02:04:28,214 --> 02:04:31,214
>> how soon can these things be

2035
02:04:31,214 --> 02:04:32,214
delivered?

2036
02:04:32,214 --> 02:04:33,214
>> good question.

2037
02:04:33,214 --> 02:04:35,214
>> we are going to put the plan in place

2038
02:04:35,214 --> 02:04:36,214
tomorrow if you approve tonight.

2039
02:04:36,214 --> 02:04:41,214
>> I have a meeting at 8:30 a.m. To put

2040
02:04:41,214 --> 02:04:42,214
everything in motion if approved.

2041
02:04:42,214 --> 02:04:45,214
>> what are the tough questions you get

2042
02:04:45,214 --> 02:04:48,214
from the community about privacy

2043
02:04:48,214 --> 02:04:50,214
concerns?

2044
02:04:52,214 --> 02:04:57,140
>> we have not had a lot of questions

2045
02:04:57,214 --> 02:05:01,214
about privacy. I know those with the

2046
02:05:01,214 --> 02:05:04,214
measure s community and what are we doing

2047
02:05:04,214 --> 02:05:07,214
with privacy. Part of that is we show on

2048
02:05:07,214 --> 02:05:11,414
the website how we maintain the security

2049
02:05:12,154 --> 02:05:16,154
of the data and what we do

2050
02:05:16,154 --> 02:05:19,154
to access the data and part of it is to

2051
02:05:19,154 --> 02:05:22,754
ensure that we are not pulling

2052
02:05:23,154 --> 02:05:26,154
registration information. If our alpr get

2053
02:05:26,154 --> 02:05:27,154
through council and the license plate and

2054
02:05:27,154 --> 02:05:29,154
at this paragraph at the rear of the

2055
02:05:29,154 --> 02:05:33,154
vehicle so we have a vehicle color, make

2056
02:05:33,154 --> 02:05:35,154
model and description and the license

2057
02:05:35,154 --> 02:05:37,154
plate number, that is all we get. The

2058
02:05:37,154 --> 02:05:39,154
only time you get more than that, is what

2059
02:05:39,154 --> 02:05:42,754
that data that is automatically compared

2060
02:05:47,154 --> 02:05:52,154
to list of vehicles that might get a hot

2061
02:05:52,154 --> 02:05:56,954
list. That just matches that data, but it

2062
02:05:57,154 --> 02:06:01,154
doesn't pull the data of everybody and

2063
02:06:01,154 --> 02:06:05,954
that is a pretty good argument point when

2064
02:06:06,154 --> 02:06:08,940
it comes to privacy. What we are doing

2065
02:06:08,940 --> 02:06:11,940
with our activity is we are just

2066
02:06:11,940 --> 02:06:14,940
enhancing what we have been doing for

2067
02:06:14,940 --> 02:06:18,294
decades. That's why I put the example

2068
02:06:22,940 --> 02:06:25,940
when sergeant was killed. That's what we

2069
02:06:25,940 --> 02:06:29,940
do with our eyes and our observations. We

2070
02:06:29,940 --> 02:06:33,940
are extracting no more than that with

2071
02:06:33,940 --> 02:06:35,940
these systems, just at a higher volume.

2072
02:06:35,940 --> 02:06:39,940
>> can you go to the slide with the lap

2073
02:06:39,940 --> 02:06:43,894
top in the vehicle? That one, in this

2074
02:06:48,940 --> 02:06:51,940
set up, it looks incredibly distracting.

2075
02:06:51,940 --> 02:06:54,940
is that the set up that would happen

2076
02:06:54,940 --> 02:06:58,940
inside of vehicles, and are we taking any

2077
02:06:58,940 --> 02:07:01,940
steps to make sure that

2078
02:07:05,940 --> 02:07:07,940
drivers are not causing a crash.

2079
02:07:07,940 --> 02:07:10,940
>> this is not the set up that you would

2080
02:07:10,940 --> 02:07:14,894
see in our vehicles per say. This is

2081
02:07:17,940 --> 02:07:21,940
something that might show up from an

2082
02:07:21,940 --> 02:07:24,940
investigation, and generally there is

2083
02:07:27,940 --> 02:07:29,940
audible beep. That will indicate to them

2084
02:07:29,940 --> 02:07:31,940
that there is something going on that

2085
02:07:31,940 --> 02:07:34,940
they need to checkout. And in addition

2086
02:07:34,940 --> 02:07:37,940
to that, our feeling is that when you

2087
02:07:37,940 --> 02:07:40,940
provide this type of technology that

2088
02:07:40,940 --> 02:07:41,940
enhances officer's ability to collect

2089
02:07:41,940 --> 02:07:43,940
information without having to actually

2090
02:07:43,940 --> 02:07:46,940
look at it, our drivers are actually

2091
02:07:46,940 --> 02:07:48,940
performing safer because they are not

2092
02:07:48,940 --> 02:07:50,940
looking at all the license plates of all

2093
02:07:50,940 --> 02:07:52,940
the cars on the road. They are looking

2094
02:07:52,940 --> 02:07:55,940
ahead of them at the traffic situation

2095
02:07:55,940 --> 02:07:58,940
that they are driving into. In my

2096
02:07:58,940 --> 02:08:01,940
opinion, it's a safety reducer and the

2097
02:08:01,940 --> 02:08:04,940
safety enhancer of reducing the risk of

2098
02:08:04,940 --> 02:08:07,694
being distracted while they are driving.

2099
02:08:09,340 --> 02:08:13,834
>> it sounds good. I hope it plays out

2100
02:08:14,340 --> 02:08:16,340
that way.

2101
02:08:17,340 --> 02:08:21,234
>> can you help explain why you are

2102
02:08:22,340 --> 02:08:23,340
requesting six of these?

2103
02:08:23,340 --> 02:08:26,340
>> we went through several different

2104
02:08:26,340 --> 02:08:29,340
rounds of looking at different numbers.

2105
02:08:29,340 --> 02:08:32,340
we were looking at something that fit

2106
02:08:32,340 --> 02:08:35,340
with a reasonable ask with regard to

2107
02:08:35,340 --> 02:08:38,340
measure s funds and what we needed. We

2108
02:08:38,340 --> 02:08:41,340
knew we needed to return those old alpr

2109
02:08:41,340 --> 02:08:43,340
systems and we wanted to get something

2110
02:08:43,340 --> 02:08:47,340
that was a proof of concept on our mobile

2111
02:08:47,340 --> 02:08:51,340
message trailers to put some semi fixed

2112
02:08:51,340 --> 02:08:52,340
alpr locations out in public. We would

2113
02:08:52,340 --> 02:08:54,340
love to have more.

2114
02:08:54,340 --> 02:08:59,434
>> is this the type of thing where six is

2115
02:09:00,340 --> 02:09:03,634
good and 12 is twice as good?

2116
02:09:04,340 --> 02:09:05,340
>> absolutely.

2117
02:09:05,340 --> 02:09:07,340
>> what is your timeline for evaluating

2118
02:09:07,340 --> 02:09:09,974
the proof of concept and what is a road

2119
02:09:09,974 --> 02:09:14,774
map if it goes away, your thinking or

2120
02:09:14,974 --> 02:09:16,974
hoping it goes?

2121
02:09:16,974 --> 02:09:18,974
>> depends on our operational needs but

2122
02:09:18,974 --> 02:09:21,974
we would be looking to put things in

2123
02:09:21,974 --> 02:09:25,974
motion with that proof of concept as

2124
02:09:25,974 --> 02:09:26,974
quickly as possible because we want to

2125
02:09:26,974 --> 02:09:29,974
come back to you and show you exactly

2126
02:09:29,974 --> 02:09:30,974
what that does.

2127
02:09:30,974 --> 02:09:33,974
>> if you are asking what's belonging

2128
02:09:33,974 --> 02:09:37,974
here, these mobile trailers that we can

2129
02:09:37,974 --> 02:09:42,774
fix these hot spots will help us identify

2130
02:09:42,974 --> 02:09:47,974
how helpful it will be to put these hot

2131
02:09:47,974 --> 02:09:51,574
spots for these cities that are

2132
02:09:51,974 --> 02:09:53,974
crossroads for freeways on and off, as

2133
02:09:53,974 --> 02:09:57,974
you know we are the crossroads for this

2134
02:09:57,974 --> 02:09:59,974
county and we will bring back to you a

2135
02:09:59,974 --> 02:10:03,574
fixed system that will help and

2136
02:10:03,974 --> 02:10:06,974
neighborhoods are begging for it. In fact

2137
02:10:06,974 --> 02:10:10,574
private neighborhoods are putting it in

2138
02:10:11,914 --> 02:10:12,914
themselves.

2139
02:10:12,914 --> 02:10:15,914
>> that was my last question where you

2140
02:10:15,914 --> 02:10:19,914
probably have a 59% chance where one or

2141
02:10:19,914 --> 02:10:22,914
two of these fixed ones. It doesn't make

2142
02:10:22,914 --> 02:10:26,914
sense to keep buying six temporary ones

2143
02:10:26,914 --> 02:10:29,914
if you know. Is the economics work where

2144
02:10:29,914 --> 02:10:31,914
it works better?

2145
02:10:31,914 --> 02:10:32,914
>> I think these are very important

2146
02:10:32,914 --> 02:10:36,914
because we need the mobile ones to do the

2147
02:10:36,914 --> 02:10:40,514
audits of the transient hotels. These

2148
02:10:41,914 --> 02:10:44,914
two are the collectors and the trailer

2149
02:10:44,914 --> 02:10:47,914
ones are going to help us decide where is

2150
02:10:47,914 --> 02:10:49,914
the best place to put them. If we are

2151
02:10:49,914 --> 02:10:51,914
going to play with four of them, we are

2152
02:10:51,914 --> 02:10:55,914
going to say this is the best return on

2153
02:10:55,914 --> 02:10:57,914
investment. We are happy to get another

2154
02:10:57,914 --> 02:11:00,914
four now, but this is the most prudent

2155
02:11:00,914 --> 02:11:03,914
way to get this with the funding. We

2156
02:11:03,914 --> 02:11:06,914
have been waiting for quite a while and

2157
02:11:06,914 --> 02:11:09,854
we have the business services contractor

2158
02:11:09,854 --> 02:11:11,854
ready to sign this tonight.

2159
02:11:11,854 --> 02:11:13,854
>> we'll get back with you with some of

2160
02:11:13,854 --> 02:11:16,854
the jurisdictions that have alpr's

2161
02:11:16,854 --> 02:11:18,854
already and the success they are showing

2162
02:11:18,854 --> 02:11:20,854
and give you an idea of what it looks

2163
02:11:20,854 --> 02:11:24,854
like in a similar sized area as to having

2164
02:11:24,854 --> 02:11:27,854
the alpr's out there in a fixed location

2165
02:11:27,854 --> 02:11:29,854
and what they can do.

2166
02:11:29,854 --> 02:11:33,854
>> this to me sounds like an outstanding

2167
02:11:33,854 --> 02:11:35,854
investment for funds for public safety.

2168
02:11:35,854 --> 02:11:40,654
>> I wonder if they are coming down in

2169
02:11:40,854 --> 02:11:45,654
price. I agree that you are buying them

2170
02:11:45,854 --> 02:11:47,854
in bulk. About $18,000 a piece?

2171
02:11:47,854 --> 02:11:52,540
>> yes, for the all mobile stuff anything

2172
02:11:52,854 --> 02:11:57,654
we put on a vehicle is about $17,000 or

2173
02:11:59,854 --> 02:12:02,854
$18,000 a piece. They come in a little

2174
02:12:02,854 --> 02:12:05,854
different price range and depends on the

2175
02:12:05,854 --> 02:12:09,454
complexity of where we put those

2176
02:12:10,794 --> 02:12:11,794
in.

2177
02:12:11,794 --> 02:12:13,794
>> when you were talking about that it

2178
02:12:13,794 --> 02:12:17,394
would cut down on investigation and

2179
02:12:17,794 --> 02:12:19,794
operational time. I'm assuming that

2180
02:12:19,794 --> 02:12:20,794
equates to having more officers out on

2181
02:12:20,794 --> 02:12:23,794
the streets which is what our citizens

2182
02:12:23,794 --> 02:12:24,794
would like to see as well.

2183
02:12:24,794 --> 02:12:26,794
>> so very briefly, the conversation that

2184
02:12:26,794 --> 02:12:32,194
I had with one of our detectives who had

2185
02:12:32,794 --> 02:12:36,994
been involved in street crime, what he's

2186
02:12:37,794 --> 02:12:40,794
telling me is the data we get local in

2187
02:12:40,794 --> 02:12:43,794
san mateo will help us identify san mateo

2188
02:12:43,794 --> 02:12:46,794
crimes. What they are doing right now is

2189
02:12:46,794 --> 02:12:49,794
they are having to reach out to other

2190
02:12:49,794 --> 02:12:52,794
jurisdictions hoping that our suspects

2191
02:12:52,794 --> 02:12:54,794
are rolling through those intersections

2192
02:12:54,794 --> 02:12:56,794
to pick up that information. While we are

2193
02:12:56,794 --> 02:12:58,794
waiting for that information to come in

2194
02:12:58,794 --> 02:13:04,794
or we have to go out on some type of

2195
02:13:05,794 --> 02:13:08,794
physical surveillance operations or sting

2196
02:13:09,734 --> 02:13:12,734
operations to get that information to us,

2197
02:13:12,734 --> 02:13:14,734
we can get that information if we have

2198
02:13:14,734 --> 02:13:16,734
local information to work with.

2199
02:13:16,734 --> 02:13:17,734
>> outstanding. Thank you.

2200
02:13:17,734 --> 02:13:21,334
>> so, do we have a motion?

2201
02:13:21,734 --> 02:13:23,734
>> you have public comment?

2202
02:13:23,734 --> 02:13:24,734
>> is there public comment?

2203
02:13:24,734 --> 02:13:25,734
>> yes, ma'am.

2204
02:13:25,734 --> 02:13:30,534
>> the one time I don't ask. Mr. Hedges?

2205
02:13:30,734 --> 02:13:33,734
public speaker: yes, thank you, mayor

2206
02:13:33,734 --> 02:13:36,734
papan and council members. As chair of

2207
02:13:36,734 --> 02:13:39,734
measure s, we had to go through some

2208
02:13:39,734 --> 02:13:41,734
history of what the funds were for. As

2209
02:13:41,734 --> 02:13:44,734
you know I ran the campaign on the

2210
02:13:44,734 --> 02:13:46,734
citizens side to pass the measure, and we

2211
02:13:46,734 --> 02:13:49,734
knew that those of us that were involved

2212
02:13:49,734 --> 02:13:55,134
in it was for street and road repair for

2213
02:13:57,734 --> 02:14:00,734
flood control and for extending the

2214
02:14:00,734 --> 02:14:02,734
library hours and for enhanceing the

2215
02:14:02,734 --> 02:14:06,734
police department. In looking at that, we

2216
02:14:06,734 --> 02:14:08,674
took all of these things into

2217
02:14:08,674 --> 02:14:11,674
consideration. We took most of the money

2218
02:14:11,674 --> 02:14:16,474
for street and roads, and fema is coming

2219
02:14:16,674 --> 02:14:20,674
back by demanding that we raise san mateo

2220
02:14:20,674 --> 02:14:22,674
creek again. And $72,000 for the police

2221
02:14:22,674 --> 02:14:25,674
department, and 18,000 for the library

2222
02:14:27,674 --> 02:14:29,674
which will go towards money from the

2223
02:14:29,674 --> 02:14:31,674
library foundation to improve one of the

2224
02:14:31,674 --> 02:14:33,674
branches. So we are able to leverage

2225
02:14:33,674 --> 02:14:38,474
that money for a lot more money. So,

2226
02:14:38,674 --> 02:14:41,674
just a personal note, I'm very in favor

2227
02:14:41,674 --> 02:14:46,474
of these cameras. We are needing them in

2228
02:14:47,674 --> 02:14:50,674
arbor town. We had three trucks stolen

2229
02:14:50,674 --> 02:14:54,674
and our poor maintenance guy had his

2230
02:14:54,674 --> 02:14:57,674
truck stolen with tools he collected all

2231
02:14:57,674 --> 02:15:03,740
his life and to add insult to injury, it

2232
02:15:03,674 --> 02:15:06,674
had been destroyed and useless and he had

2233
02:15:06,674 --> 02:15:11,474
to pay the surcharges and storage fee. We

2234
02:15:12,614 --> 02:15:17,414
came up with voluntary gifts to help him

2235
02:15:18,614 --> 02:15:22,614
restore to normal. It was a help. They

2236
02:15:22,614 --> 02:15:24,614
know about it and they are pushing for

2237
02:15:24,614 --> 02:15:28,814
cameras. If we get those cameras, they

2238
02:15:29,614 --> 02:15:31,614
will be linked in with the city. Thank

2239
02:15:31,614 --> 02:15:32,614
you.

2240
02:15:32,614 --> 02:15:33,614
>> mayor diane papan: I want to close

2241
02:15:33,614 --> 02:15:36,614
public comment. I want to thank mr.

2242
02:15:36,614 --> 02:15:39,614
hedges for all of his efforts for measure

2243
02:15:39,614 --> 02:15:42,614
s and after that, in the allocation of

2244
02:15:42,614 --> 02:15:45,614
those funds, we appreciate your

2245
02:15:49,614 --> 02:15:50,614
contributions.

2246
02:15:50,614 --> 02:15:53,614
>> no finer steward than yourself.

2247
02:15:54,614 --> 02:15:58,614
>> do we have a comment or motion.

2248
02:15:58,614 --> 02:16:00,614
>> deputy mayor maureen freschet: this

2249
02:16:00,614 --> 02:16:05,614
is the most valuable way we can spend the

2250
02:16:05,614 --> 02:16:08,554
measure s funds. I think public safety

2251
02:16:08,554 --> 02:16:11,554
is something that this entire council is

2252
02:16:11,554 --> 02:16:13,554
concerned about. The track record so far

2253
02:16:13,554 --> 02:16:18,354
in how this has helped solve crimes and

2254
02:16:18,554 --> 02:16:20,554
the fact that it's going to help more

2255
02:16:20,554 --> 02:16:22,554
officers on the streets and help with

2256
02:16:22,554 --> 02:16:24,554
investigations, it's the perfect way to

2257
02:16:24,554 --> 02:16:28,554
utilize some of those measure s funds.

2258
02:16:28,554 --> 02:16:30,554
unless others have comments, I will just

2259
02:16:30,554 --> 02:16:33,554
make a motion. Okay, I move that we adopt

2260
02:16:33,554 --> 02:16:37,154
a resolution to use an alternative

2261
02:16:40,554 --> 02:16:44,154
purchasing method to approve an agreement

2262
02:16:53,554 --> 02:16:57,554
with the neology inc. For the procurement

2263
02:16:57,554 --> 02:17:00,554
of six automated license plate readers

2264
02:17:00,554 --> 02:17:03,554
for the san mateo police department.

2265
02:17:03,554 --> 02:17:04,554
>> all in favor say, "aye".

2266
02:17:04,554 --> 02:17:05,554
>> aye.

2267
02:17:05,554 --> 02:17:08,554
>> any opposed? That item passes. Thank

2268
02:17:08,554 --> 02:17:10,554
you so much.

2269
02:17:12,554 --> 02:17:14,554
>> mayor diane papan: well, that brings

2270
02:17:14,554 --> 02:17:17,554
us to the end of the agenda. Do we have

2271
02:17:17,554 --> 02:17:21,754
anything? I have just an announcement; a

2272
02:17:24,554 --> 02:17:26,554
report, rather. Reports or

2273
02:17:26,554 --> 02:17:27,554
announcements?

2274
02:17:27,554 --> 02:17:28,554
>> something brief.

2275
02:17:28,554 --> 02:17:29,554
>> go ahead.

2276
02:17:29,554 --> 02:17:30,554
>> I don't know, maybe you were going to

2277
02:17:30,554 --> 02:17:33,554
talk about the same thing t ad hoc

2278
02:17:33,554 --> 02:17:34,554
committee?

2279
02:17:34,554 --> 02:17:38,554
>> no. Real quick, the ad hoc committee

2280
02:17:38,554 --> 02:17:42,554
for the 101 managed lanes met and came to

2281
02:17:42,554 --> 02:17:45,554
some consensus around the staffing for

2282
02:17:45,554 --> 02:17:47,554
the jpa that's going to be formed. We

2283
02:17:47,554 --> 02:17:49,554
have another meeting this week and then

2284
02:17:49,554 --> 02:17:52,554
we'll be able to report back on what that

2285
02:17:52,554 --> 02:17:54,554
final staffing model is going to look

2286
02:17:54,554 --> 02:17:58,754
like. But it was a very collaborative

2287
02:18:02,554 --> 02:18:06,154
event between c kag and representatives

2288
02:18:06,554 --> 02:18:08,494
and everyone is pleased with how that is

2289
02:18:08,494 --> 02:18:09,494
going to look.

2290
02:18:09,494 --> 02:18:11,494
>> former mayor rick bonilla: as member

2291
02:18:11,494 --> 02:18:16,894
of the heart board we are going to have

2292
02:18:17,494 --> 02:18:21,694
on annual heart fundraiser at 5:30 p.m.

2293
02:18:22,494 --> 02:18:26,940
at the sand devil's brewery. About

2294
02:18:30,494 --> 02:18:33,494
$140,000 which keeps our office running

2295
02:18:34,494 --> 02:18:38,694
and helps us keep making affordable loans

2296
02:18:39,494 --> 02:18:42,494
for our first time home buyers.

2297
02:18:42,494 --> 02:18:47,894
I think I have to give mr. Rick an

2298
02:18:50,494 --> 02:18:51,494
apology. I apologize for that. In the

2299
02:18:51,494 --> 02:18:53,494
future, I will ask you later.

2300
02:18:53,494 --> 02:18:56,494
>> mayor diane papan: really quickly, I

2301
02:18:56,494 --> 02:19:00,494
saw that they are raising the amount fof

2302
02:19:00,494 --> 02:19:02,494
first time home buyers, the amount of how

2303
02:19:02,494 --> 02:19:05,494
much they can make, I think it's how much

2304
02:19:05,494 --> 02:19:06,494
the home can be worth.

2305
02:19:06,494 --> 02:19:09,434
>> we can only finance up to so much

2306
02:19:09,434 --> 02:19:11,834
through the financing arrangement.

2307
02:19:12,434 --> 02:19:16,340
>> it had been $730,000. It's up to

2308
02:19:18,434 --> 02:19:20,434
$905,000. That means they can look for a

2309
02:19:20,434 --> 02:19:21,434
more expensive place.

2310
02:19:21,434 --> 02:19:22,434
>> wonderful.

2311
02:19:22,434 --> 02:19:25,434
>> keeping up with the times and

2312
02:19:25,434 --> 02:19:27,434
adjusting for the high cost of housing.

2313
02:19:27,434 --> 02:19:29,434
>> good news.

2314
02:19:29,434 --> 02:19:30,434
>> anyone else?

2315
02:19:30,434 --> 02:19:33,434
>> I want to say great job, kathy and the

2316
02:19:33,434 --> 02:19:34,434

found myself down on the freeway alone

2330
02:20:17,374 --> 02:20:20,374
picking up trash and brought some back

2331
02:20:20,374 --> 02:20:23,374
and went back again and there was a bag

2332
02:20:23,374 --> 02:20:26,374
of 8 pounds of cigarette butts.

2333
02:20:27,374 --> 02:20:29,374
unbelievable. This is a community effort

2334
02:20:29,374 --> 02:20:33,574
with the collaboration with the city and

2335
02:20:34,374 --> 02:20:36,374
the managers office and I know I'm

2336
02:20:36,374 --> 02:20:40,374
leaving somebody out. In any event. I

2337
02:20:40,374 --> 02:20:43,374
love these t-shirts and it's talking

2338
02:20:43,374 --> 02:20:45,374
about loving north central and this was

2339
02:20:45,374 --> 02:20:50,174
nothing about a labor of love and I'm

2340
02:20:52,374 --> 02:20:53,374
super proud of our city.

2341
02:20:53,374 --> 02:20:55,374
>> deputy mayor maureen freschet: I

2342
02:20:55,374 --> 02:21:00,174
would like the public to know that our

2343
02:21:00,374 --> 02:21:03,374
city manager crossed the finish line

2344
02:21:03,374 --> 02:21:07,314
today and we are very proud of him.

2345
02:21:07,314 --> 02:21:09,714
>> in 3 hours and 90 seconds.

2346
02:21:11,314 --> 02:21:13,314
