Funny 235 00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:37,200 I get nervous talking to you but can pitch 236 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:40,200 in front of 5 thousand people. Again, my 237 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:42,200 name a anthony [inaudible comments] 238 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:45,602 resident of placer conte since [inaudible 239 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:48,200 comments] 4 years ago I bought [inaudible 240 00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:50,200 comments] and farming it ever since. I 241 00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:53,200 wanted to pull this map because I believe 242 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:55,200 this map was not truly wanted by all of 243 00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:58,200 you and pushed by a small group of people 244 00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:01,200 that did not truly represent the majority 245 00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:03,402 of 400 thousand residents. Shows 246 00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:08,200 segregation between cities and rural 247 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:10,402 communities especially district 3. As 248 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:16,200 resident of rockland and farmer in penryn 249 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:18,200 this gives close connection to the 250 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:19,200 ag community and [inaudible comments] 251 00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:21,200 along are resident in rockland. I feel 252 00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:25,200 this is happening because days after the 253 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:28,200 map was voted on by all you pleny with 254 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:31,200 reservation I had many resident of the 255 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:33,200 ag community approach me public places 256 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,200 like the post office or stopping by 257 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:37,200 [inaudible comments] to say thank you for 258 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:40,200 standing up for us. We feel like we were 259 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:44,802 separated in the loomis basis for gain of 260 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:49,200 rockland city council. A few who spoke in 261 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:52,200 from rockland do not represent all 262 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:55,200 district 3 but seem to have the loudest 263 00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:57,200 voice. I have spoken to many resident 264 00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:59,200 some knowing about redistricting and many 265 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:02,200 who had no idea. But when I asked would 266 00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:05,200 you rather have one supervisor or two the 267 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:07,200 answer I heard the most is it it not 268 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:11,200 better to have two sets of eyes looking 269 00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:13,200 out then one? I noticed those who pushed 270 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:16,200 to have rockland as a whole by themselves 271 00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:19,200 do not live in district 3. Now with this 272 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:22,200 map it places those who spoke the loudest 273 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:26,200 in district 3. It seems this is a 274 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:27,200 political move by the city council to have 275 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:30,200 all of their homes in district 3 giving 276 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:32,200 the opportunity to run for supervisor in 277 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:34,200 next election for district 3. Looking 278 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:37,200 like it was the best interest of them and 279 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:39,200 not the people of district 3. But the 280 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:41,200 only way to prove this is to see in the 281 00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:44,200 future if these council members run for 282 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:48,200 this position. Now this map continues to 283 00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:52,802 go forward this takes jim holmes out of 284 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:55,200 his district. That being said, if he is 285 00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:58,200 no longer able to run I announce today I 286 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:02,200 will run for his position. Thank you. 287 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:05,200 >> thank you.

I had some concerns not my 409 00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:29,200 concerns but constituents concerns and 410 00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:32,200 they were wondering what is the difference 411 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:35,200 between the impact fees and tree 412 00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:37,200 mitigation fees? Ej. 413 00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:43,200 >> going to bring up my subject matter 414 00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:45,200 expert. 415 00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:49,202 >> that was way too easy. Ej [inaudible 416 00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:53,200 comments] planning service division. 417 00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:55,200 placer county conversation plan is adopted 418 00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:57,200 fee program. We also have the oak 419 00:38:57,200 --> 00:39:00,200 woodland ordinance, which was previously 420 00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:04,200 our tree preservation ordinance and upon 421 00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:06,200 adoption of the placer county conservation 422 00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:08,200 plan that moved to chapter 19 of county 423 00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:11,200 code. So we have a oak woodland ordinance 424 00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:14,200 that applies to tree permits discretionary 425 00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:17,200 permits outside the pccp area, but it is 426 00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:21,200 not a adopted fee program. It provides 427 00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:24,602 for on-site tree replanting, market rate 428 00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:28,200 mitigation. We are going to update that 429 00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:31,200 ordinance hopefully next year, probably 430 00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:33,200 take the better part of next year. There 431 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:37,200 will be a robust outreach component as 432 00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:40,200 part of that so that will obviously go to 433 00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:41,200 the mac, planning commission, board of 434 00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:43,200 supervisors, so hopefully that answers 435 00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:44,200 your question. 436 00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:46,200 >> that does. That helps a lot. Could 437 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:48,200 you just give a little more information, 438 00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:52,200 what is a impact fee? I know this is all 439 00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:54,402 dictated by government code 66,000. 440 00:39:56,200 --> 00:40:00,200 >> I'm not sure I'm the best person to 441 00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:01,200 answer that. Development impact fee for 442 00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:03,200 transit, transportation, infrastructure 443 00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:06,200 associated associated with development 444 00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:09,200 projects. Capital facilities. Park and 445 00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:11,200 recreation facilities. 446 00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:13,200 >> so that means the development whatever 447 00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:15,200 we are developing is the impact that is 448 00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:17,200 going to have on these various things? 449 00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:20,200 >> and guaranteeing the county will get 450 00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:23,200 comp compensated for those facilities. 451 00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:27,200 >> how and when are they updated? Are 452 00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:29,200 they updated annually? 453 00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:32,200 >> they are updated annually. Each 454 00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:34,200 program we adopted has some sort of 455 00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:38,200 coordinating cci or cpi so that-so for the 456 00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:41,200 capital facilities impact fee I brought 457 00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:45,200 that the end of september and goes into 458 00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:48,200 effect 60 days after adoption so those are 459 00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:50,200 brought separately. Some of the programs 460 00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:53,200 we also take a consolidated item around 461 00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:55,200 april. This is a fire facility fee and 462 00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:57,200 specific plan fee programs. It just are 463 00:40:57,200 --> 00:40:59,200 depends on how the ordinance is written on 464 00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:01,200 when those come back annually but we also 465 00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:03,200 do another consolidated item for those. 466 00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:06,200 >> okay. And are then this talks about 467 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:08,200 the fees that the actual fees that are 468 00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:11,200 collected and then how they are spent and 469 00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:15,200 handled. Is that all for the public to 470 00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:16,200 review and look at? 471 00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:19,200 >> absolutely. So, we have the report as 472 00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:22,200 an attachment to this which also includes 473 00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:25,200 the reporting of fees, the items I listed 474 00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:26,200 that have to be included per government 475 00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:28,200 code but also on file we have the fee 476 00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:31,200 program information, so that is the actual 477 00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:34,200 fee program that we brought for adoption 478 00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:35,200 that we maintain. 479 00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:37,200 >> okay. 480 00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:39,200 >> our department maintains. 481 00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:42,200 >> great. Thank you so much. 482 00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:44,200 >> absolutely. Thank you. 483 00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:47,200 >> anyone from the public wish to comment 484 00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:49,200 on this item? 485 00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:54,200 >> sheryl, please unmute your mic and give 486 00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:55,200 your comments. 487 00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:57,200 >> thank you very much. Thank you suzanne 488 00:41:57,200 --> 00:42:00,200 jones for bringing this up. We actually 489 00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:03,200 brought this up for many years in district 490 00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:07,200 4. I am not sure I agree with the 491 00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:11,802 assessment of the fees. The pccp not only 492 00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:15,200 does it not cover in land mass other areas 493 00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:17,200 so the fact that you are collecting 494 00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:21,802 mitigation fees for pools and tree and oak 495 00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:25,200 woodlands and only doing it within a 496 00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:28,200 certain area of land it is still the same 497 00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:31,602 thing. Also, projects approved prior to 498 00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:39,202 2020 when the pccp was approved are not 499 00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:46,200 covered. Yearly there is a cadence where 500 00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:48,200 I believe it was last week the developer 501 00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:50,200 fees were increased. I didn't see the 502 00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:53,200 tree mitigation fees increased. Housing 503 00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:58,200 fees are increased. I see no reporting. 504 00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:01,200 I would suggest this report is incomplete. 505 00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:05,200 it does not cover tree mitigation for 506 00:43:05,200 --> 00:43:09,200 anything not in the pccp and many of the 507 00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:10,200 development agreements that have been 508 00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:13,602 reached prior to 2020. Every time a 509 00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:17,200 development goes in, there was a nexus 510 00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:20,200 study that was done that clearly shows 511 00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:23,200 there was an appeal with rancho [inaudible 512 00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:25,200 comments] with 4 thousand oak trees that 513 00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:28,200 should have been covered by increased 514 00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:30,200 fees. Those fees have not been increased 515 00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:34,802 I believe for years and years and years. 516 00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:40,200 well beyond what steve pedretti was 517 00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:42,200 charged with managing so I think it is a 518 00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:44,200 incomplete report. I think it should have 519 00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:47,200 a line item just like pccp. There should 520 00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:51,802 be a tree ordinance and there also was-the 521 00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:57,200 nexus study shows those fees are 522 00:43:57,200 --> 00:44:00,200 insufficient so hope you will consider 523 00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:01,200 actually looking at those fees not a year 524 00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:05,200 from now. Every time trees are taken out 525 00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:07,200 it is actually encouraging trees to be 526 00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:10,200 taken out. I also like to point out that 527 00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:14,802 at the legal of women voters when cindy 528 00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:18,602 gustafson and suzanne was there and 529 00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:22,200 supervisor uhler was there there was a 530 00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:24,200 system that kept track of all these tree 531 00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:27,602 mitigation fees, we asked for this 532 00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:30,200 multiple times. We don't know where the 533 00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:32,200 tree mitigation fees are going and why 534 00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:37,200 they are so low so hope you will please 535 00:44:37,200 --> 00:44:39,200 address this as incomplete item and 536 00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:41,200 something that needs to be taken care of 537 00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:43,200 because it is state law that this is 538 00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:45,200 managed yearly and I believe that you are 539 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:48,200 breaking the state law by not providing 540 00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:50,200 those fees. Thank you. 541 00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:52,200 >> county counsel. 542 00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:55,200 >> there seems to be some confusion here 543 00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:57,200 and hopefully I don't make it more 544 00:44:57,200 --> 00:44:59,200 confusing. But there is a difference 545 00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:02,602 between a impact development impact fee, 546 00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:06,602 which is governed by government code 6600, 547 00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:12,200 and those impact fees are developed and 548 00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:15,200 adopted by this board after public 549 00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:17,200 hearings in which a nexus study must be 550 00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:21,200 prepared and it must be established that 551 00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:25,802 the fee relates to the impact. That is 552 00:45:26,200 --> 00:45:27,200 why they are called development impact 553 00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:28,200 fees. 554 00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:30,200 [streaming cut out] 555 00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:36,402 you will often see in eir or deg dec 556 00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:40,200 payment of a impact fee will in fact 557 00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:42,200 mitigate a particular impact. We see that 558 00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:45,200 quite a bit for transportation, however, 559 00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:48,200 you can't confuse that with mitigation. 560 00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:50,200 in some instances we do have fees for 561 00:45:50,200 --> 00:45:53,200 mitigation and one of them is ej mentioned 562 00:45:53,200 --> 00:45:56,200 is the oak tree or pardon me, the tree 563 00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:58,200 ordinance. That's a mitigation fee, it is 564 00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:01,200 not a development impact fee, so I 565 00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:03,200 respectfully disagree with mrs. [inaudible 566 00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:05,200 comments] that there is anything that is 567 00:46:05,200 --> 00:46:07,200 incomplete about this particular study. 568 00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:10,200 the study took everyone of the development 569 00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:13,200 impact fees this county implemented and 570 00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:16,200 reporting as required under the government 571 00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:18,200 code. 572 00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:21,602 >> thanks karen. Going to add clarity, 573 00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:26,200 there is a huge amount of 574 00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:29,200 miscommunication, but the tree ordinance 575 00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:33,200 and mitigation that started in placer 576 00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:36,602 county-got to back 20, 25 years as I 577 00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:41,802 recall, the pccp of course is a completely 578 00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:44,200 different animal and we adopted it about a 579 00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:47,602 year ago, and it essentially shifts 580 00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:53,200 federal and state authority for green 581 00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:56,200 field impacts on protected environmental 582 00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:01,200 properties from the federal state 583 00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:03,200 government down to the local level. A 584 00:47:03,200 --> 00:47:07,802 part of our program includes an in lieu 585 00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:09,200 fee so somebody going through that 586 00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:11,200 application process will have the 587 00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:14,200 flexibility to provide mitigation that is 588 00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:20,200 required or they can pay a fee or they can 589 00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:21,200 do a combination of these things so it is 590 00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:25,200 unique in the country. Has to be done in 591 00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:27,200 placer county and those fees are reviewed 592 00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:31,202 annually in their looked at in 5 year 593 00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:34,200 windows and that is a part of the contract 594 00:47:34,200 --> 00:47:36,200 we have with the state and federal 595 00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:39,200 agencies in that regard. I think that is 596 00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:41,200 really important for the public to 597 00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:44,200 understand generally.

As over the past year 843 01:00:15,200 --> 01:00:18,200 there have been multiple changes from cal 844 01:00:18,200 --> 01:00:20,200 osha with respect to county staff and 845 01:00:20,200 --> 01:00:23,200 testing requirements there of.

So, I am very much against 871 01:01:28,200 --> 01:01:32,202 further testing. The covid testing is so 872 01:01:34,200 --> 01:01:37,602 fraudulent. Every time they test that 873 01:01:43,200 --> 01:01:44,200 counts as a new case and they are testing 874 01:01:44,200 --> 01:01:48,202 for the corona virus not covid-19. There 875 01:01:49,200 --> 01:01:51,200 is a cycle threshold that can be adjusted 876 01:01:51,200 --> 01:01:54,200 to make the test more sensitive and these 877 01:01:54,200 --> 01:01:58,202 tests are being used to institute these 878 01:01:59,200 --> 01:02:01,200 mask mandates for example and are to put 879 01:02:01,200 --> 01:02:04,602 further restrictions on the people. The 880 01:02:06,200 --> 01:02:10,200 person that created the pcr test carrie 881 01:02:10,200 --> 01:02:14,200 mullis said himself the test was never 882 01:02:14,200 --> 01:02:18,202 designed as diagnostic tool, and there's a 883 01:02:20,200 --> 01:02:24,202 dr., dr. Peter mccullough, I would really 884 01:02:28,200 --> 01:02:30,200 recommend you look him up because he talks 885 01:02:30,200 --> 01:02:34,200 about the pc r test and how fraudulently 886 01:02:34,200 --> 01:02:37,200 it is being used. You might have to 887 01:02:37,200 --> 01:02:40,200 search for him on duck duck go because 888 01:02:40,200 --> 01:02:43,200 google is scrubbing anything that is 889 01:02:43,200 --> 01:02:45,200 negative against the vaccine or against 890 01:02:45,200 --> 01:02:48,602 the testing for covid protocols in 891 01:02:49,200 --> 01:02:53,202 general. One other thing is, the covid 892 01:02:57,200 --> 01:03:00,602 cannot be spread asystematically and many 893 01:03:04,200 --> 01:03:06,200 doctors talked about that including peter 894 01:03:06,200 --> 01:03:09,200 mccullough. So, I'm against spending more 895 01:03:09,200 --> 01:03:13,202 money to put more restrictions on the 896 01:03:14,200 --> 01:03:16,200 people.

My name is jennifer and I think-I 928 01:05:12,200 --> 01:05:14,200 like some information on just two aspects 929 01:05:14,200 --> 01:05:18,200 of this. Number one, the pc r test is 930 01:05:18,200 --> 01:05:21,200 like no longer valid at the end of this 931 01:05:21,200 --> 01:05:23,200 year so what test are you going to be 932 01:05:23,200 --> 01:05:26,200 using to run these mobile clinics? And if 933 01:05:26,200 --> 01:05:29,200 you are going to continue using the pc r 934 01:05:29,200 --> 01:05:31,200 test what cycle per threshold are you 935 01:05:31,200 --> 01:05:33,200 using because I believe it is anything 936 01:05:33,200 --> 01:05:37,200 over 26 is basically able to give a false 937 01:05:37,200 --> 01:05:41,802 positive. I are am not sure which staff 938 01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:46,802 is included in this for testing, but I 939 01:05:47,200 --> 01:05:49,200 think if you look at what's happened in 940 01:05:49,200 --> 01:05:54,200 the u k they test 3 times as much as we do 941 01:05:54,200 --> 01:05:57,200 on a smaller population and their cases 942 01:05:57,200 --> 01:06:00,200 keep going up and up and up, and the 943 01:06:00,200 --> 01:06:02,200 patterns that are showing and coming 944 01:06:02,200 --> 01:06:04,200 across are the vaccinated people are the 945 01:06:04,200 --> 01:06:07,200 ones now with this new variant like 80 946 01:06:07,200 --> 01:06:10,602 percent that are becoming positive are 947 01:06:12,200 --> 01:06:16,802 vaccinated and so I think if we really 948 01:06:17,200 --> 01:06:21,200 want to do this heard immunity thing that 949 01:06:21,200 --> 01:06:23,200 keeps the number keeps getting raised 950 01:06:23,200 --> 01:06:26,200 higher and higher and higher and it 951 01:06:26,200 --> 01:06:28,200 doesn't really make too much sense to me 952 01:06:28,200 --> 01:06:31,602 personally, I don't-I think people are 953 01:06:32,200 --> 01:06:34,200 just going to be getting sick if they have 954 01:06:34,200 --> 01:06:37,602 the vaccines the vaccines dont protect. 955 01:06:38,200 --> 01:06:41,200 that was really what the vaccines are just 956 01:06:41,200 --> 01:06:45,200 to reduce symptoms, right? So, if you are 957 01:06:45,200 --> 01:06:47,200 vaccinated you will get it. You will have 958 01:06:47,200 --> 01:06:50,200 your symptoms reduced if that's what it 959 01:06:50,200 --> 01:06:53,200 does, and if you had it you are not going 960 01:06:53,200 --> 01:06:55,200 to keep getting it, so I'm not really sure 961 01:06:55,200 --> 01:06:59,200 what the urgency is to do all this testing 962 01:06:59,200 --> 01:07:02,200 all the time, because I do think it is 963 01:07:02,200 --> 01:07:05,200 bringing up a false positive and I think 964 01:07:05,200 --> 01:07:07,200 we are starting to see too we are having 965 01:07:07,200 --> 01:07:09,200 more positive cases in areas where there 966 01:07:09,200 --> 01:07:13,200 is more vaccinations, so if you wouldn't 967 01:07:13,200 --> 01:07:16,200 mind just explaining how will the pc r 968 01:07:16,200 --> 01:07:18,200 test is utilized in these testings that 969 01:07:18,200 --> 01:07:21,602 you are mobily going around, what 970 01:07:22,200 --> 01:07:24,200 threshold because I don't know why we 971 01:07:24,200 --> 01:07:26,200 never ever really gotten that information 972 01:07:26,200 --> 01:07:30,200 publicly.

First, there is viral drift then 1001 01:09:03,200 --> 01:09:07,200 viral shift have the shift creates a new 1002 01:09:07,200 --> 01:09:11,202 strain which may be less protective when 1003 01:09:12,200 --> 01:09:15,200 you had the former vaccine. That does not 1004 01:09:15,200 --> 01:09:18,200 mean the vaccine is ineffective and the 1005 01:09:18,200 --> 01:09:21,200 vaccine does not lower your chance of 1006 01:09:21,200 --> 01:09:24,200 being hospitalized or dying. What it does 1007 01:09:24,200 --> 01:09:27,200 mean is vaccination is a key important 1008 01:09:27,200 --> 01:09:31,200 first step towards getting back to normal 1009 01:09:31,200 --> 01:09:33,200 and getting where the nob nab needs to be 1010 01:09:33,200 --> 01:09:35,200 and it is absolutely critical people 1011 01:09:35,200 --> 01:09:38,200 disregard the disinformation that is out 1012 01:09:38,200 --> 01:09:41,200 there. Any time you have to go through a 1013 01:09:41,200 --> 01:09:44,200 web search and then by-pass the scrubbers 1014 01:09:44,200 --> 01:09:47,200 that get through the disinformation I 1015 01:09:47,200 --> 01:09:49,200 think that you already told yourself 1016 01:09:49,200 --> 01:09:52,200 something. I would say go to the cdc, go 1017 01:09:52,200 --> 01:09:56,200 to the nih, go to dr. Fauci and find out 1018 01:09:56,200 --> 01:09:58,200 what the real truth is and you'll find 1019 01:09:58,200 --> 01:10:00,200 just like with the flu it changes from 1020 01:10:00,200 --> 01:10:03,200 year to year. It is deadly from year to 1021 01:10:03,200 --> 01:10:05,200 year, especially among those immuno 1022 01:10:05,200 --> 01:10:08,200 compromised or elderly so please do not 1023 01:10:08,200 --> 01:10:12,200 out of hand just dismiss this as a 1024 01:10:12,200 --> 01:10:15,200 non-issue or asystematic people can't 1025 01:10:15,200 --> 01:10:17,402 transmit.

This is time 1048 01:11:16,200 --> 01:11:19,200 when anyone from the public can address 1049 01:11:19,200 --> 01:11:21,200 the board on something that is not on the 1050 01:11:21,200 --> 01:11:24,200 agenda. Keeping in mind we can take no 1051 01:11:24,200 --> 01:11:28,202 action. Anyone who would like to address 1052 01:11:32,200 --> 01:11:35,602 us under public comment? Jennifer, why 1053 01:11:42,200 --> 01:11:44,200 don't you start. We have somebody on zoom 1054 01:11:44,200 --> 01:11:47,602 I'm assuming? Okay. Welcome to proceed. 1055 01:11:48,200 --> 01:11:52,200 >> jennifer. I'm back. So, I saw that 1056 01:11:52,200 --> 01:11:54,200 california is doing the statewide mask 1057 01:11:54,200 --> 01:11:58,200 requirements and I was wondering if you 1058 01:11:58,200 --> 01:12:00,200 can speak how that is going to impact 1059 01:12:00,200 --> 01:12:03,200 placer county. I am not really sure why 1060 01:12:03,200 --> 01:12:06,200 we are being forced to wear masks. There 1061 01:12:06,200 --> 01:12:11,200 is high level of bad air we are breathing 1062 01:12:11,200 --> 01:12:13,200 all day to make our brains not work and I 1063 01:12:13,200 --> 01:12:15,200 think we are seeing that on a large scale 1064 01:12:15,200 --> 01:12:19,200 in general. There is bacteria harbored on 1065 01:12:19,200 --> 01:12:22,200 them. They are not being worn properly. 1066 01:12:22,200 --> 01:12:24,200 everything escapes out the sides and the 1067 01:12:24,200 --> 01:12:27,200 tops, people are wearing them below their 1068 01:12:27,200 --> 01:12:30,200 noses, so I really like to know why we are 1069 01:12:30,200 --> 01:12:34,200 doing it, and if we are going to be doing 1070 01:12:34,200 --> 01:12:38,200 it in placer county if next meeting we are 1071 01:12:38,200 --> 01:12:41,200 here we all have to have our masks on 1072 01:12:41,200 --> 01:12:44,200 sound like and I really just like to 1073 01:12:44,200 --> 01:12:47,200 understand a little bit more how that is 1074 01:12:47,200 --> 01:12:50,200 going to effect us. If we are going to 1075 01:12:50,200 --> 01:12:54,200 have to start wearing masks and continue 1076 01:12:54,200 --> 01:12:56,200 to comply with something that to me 1077 01:12:56,200 --> 01:12:59,200 doesn't make sense and a lot of other 1078 01:12:59,200 --> 01:13:01,200 people doesn't make sense, I really think 1079 01:13:01,200 --> 01:13:04,200 we should really think about 1080 01:13:04,200 --> 01:13:06,402 constitutionalizing our sheriff. Placer 1081 01:13:07,200 --> 01:13:10,200 county can lead the way. People are not 1082 01:13:10,200 --> 01:13:12,200 dropping dead in florida, people are not 1083 01:13:12,200 --> 01:13:14,200 dropping dead in other states that are not 1084 01:13:14,200 --> 01:13:19,200 wearing masks and I think we have to stop 1085 01:13:19,200 --> 01:13:23,200 living in fear because fear is driving our 1086 01:13:23,200 --> 01:13:25,200 economy into the ground as well as a lot 1087 01:13:25,200 --> 01:13:27,200 of other things. It is causing a lot of 1088 01:13:27,200 --> 01:13:30,602 divide and it's creating children with 1089 01:13:33,200 --> 01:13:37,202 lower motor skills, less speech, less comp 1090 01:13:38,200 --> 01:13:40,200 tense because they can't go to school, 1091 01:13:40,200 --> 01:13:44,202 they are having higher suicide rates. All 1092 01:13:45,200 --> 01:13:48,200 kinds of stuff, and I know masks are just 1093 01:13:48,200 --> 01:13:51,200 like a symptom of this, but I really think 1094 01:13:51,200 --> 01:13:55,200 we need to consider what these masks are, 1095 01:13:55,200 --> 01:13:59,200 because to me they are a silencer. 1096 01:13:59,200 --> 01:14:00,200 anything that is not going with what is 1097 01:14:00,200 --> 01:14:04,200 said by the cdc or nih, which continually 1098 01:14:04,200 --> 01:14:07,200 changes. Diseases continually change. It 1099 01:14:07,200 --> 01:14:09,200 isn't going it go away. We have to accept 1100 01:14:09,200 --> 01:14:13,802 that and move forward. Just a change of 1101 01:14:15,200 --> 01:14:18,200 shift from my last 30 seconds. I would 1102 01:14:18,200 --> 01:14:22,202 also really like placer county to consider 1103 01:14:23,200 --> 01:14:26,200 5g placement as it is going up. We are a 1104 01:14:26,200 --> 01:14:28,200 huge agricultural area as we discussed 1105 01:14:28,200 --> 01:14:31,200 earlier through the redistricting, and 1106 01:14:32,200 --> 01:14:35,200 there is a lot of studies showing 4g 1107 01:14:35,200 --> 01:14:38,200 effects bees and other things like that 1108 01:14:38,200 --> 01:14:42,200 are pollinators, and I think that is 1109 01:14:42,200 --> 01:14:43,200 something to consider. There is no 1110 01:14:43,200 --> 01:14:47,200 long-term studies on 5g or 4g and it 1111 01:14:47,200 --> 01:14:49,200 destroys the cells in the body. Thank 1112 01:14:49,200 --> 01:14:50,200 you. 1113 01:14:50,200 --> 01:14:52,200 >> thank you, jennifer. 1114 01:14:55,200 --> 01:14:58,200 >> michael go ahead and unmute and give 1115 01:14:58,200 --> 01:15:00,200 your comments. 1116 01:15:01,200 --> 01:15:05,200 >> hi. Yes, I'm very much against mask 1117 01:15:05,200 --> 01:15:07,200 mandates and I will not comply with the 1118 01:15:07,200 --> 01:15:11,202 mask mandate. I'm curious to hear what 1119 01:15:12,200 --> 01:15:16,200 you as a board plan to do with this. You 1120 01:15:16,200 --> 01:15:20,202 know, there is other counties that have 1121 01:15:22,200 --> 01:15:24,200 pushed back against these mandates but I 1122 01:15:24,200 --> 01:15:28,202 haven't seen it from placer county. San 1123 01:15:29,200 --> 01:15:32,602 joaquin and el dorado have resolutions 1124 01:15:33,200 --> 01:15:36,602 against vaccine mandates. And then again 1125 01:15:37,200 --> 01:15:39,200 I want to-another thing I like to talk 1126 01:15:39,200 --> 01:15:43,202 about is the covid-19 dashboard for placer 1127 01:15:44,200 --> 01:15:46,200 county. To me it seems it is just 1128 01:15:46,200 --> 01:15:49,200 propaganda. 39.200 cases. Okay. So, and 1129 01:15:51,200 --> 01:15:54,602 then 56 average daily cases. Huh. Likely 1130 01:15:58,200 --> 01:16:00,402 37.723 likely recovered. 483 deaths. So, 1131 01:16:03,200 --> 01:16:07,802 what does that mean? Is that this month? 1132 01:16:08,200 --> 01:16:12,200 is that this year? Is that ever? And 1133 01:16:12,200 --> 01:16:15,200 then, it looks like the cases are going 1134 01:16:15,200 --> 01:16:18,200 down but yet now we have this mask mandate 1135 01:16:18,200 --> 01:16:22,202 for all of california. On the covid-19 1136 01:16:24,200 --> 01:16:26,200 dashboard could you put some information 1137 01:16:26,200 --> 01:16:29,602 on the vaccine like adverse reactions? 1138 01:16:31,200 --> 01:16:35,200 can we have listings how many people have 1139 01:16:35,200 --> 01:16:38,602 been adversely effected from the vaccine? 1140 01:16:40,200 --> 01:16:44,200 how many died from the vaccine? What 1141 01:16:44,200 --> 01:16:47,200 about just general we never followed this 1142 01:16:47,200 --> 01:16:49,200 before. What about general deaths, 1143 01:16:49,200 --> 01:16:51,402 automobile accidents, deaths from 1144 01:16:53,200 --> 01:16:55,402 automobile accidents, cancer, other 1145 01:16:56,200 --> 01:16:59,200 medical conditions. That might be 1146 01:16:59,200 --> 01:17:01,200 interesting to put on there. As it stands 1147 01:17:01,200 --> 01:17:04,200 it seems like it is just propaganda and 1148 01:17:04,200 --> 01:17:07,602 promoting fear. We really need you 1149 01:17:12,200 --> 01:17:15,200 supervisors to lead and stop promoting 1150 01:17:15,200 --> 01:17:17,200 fear and then I think that the main thing 1151 01:17:17,200 --> 01:17:22,200 I hear from you folks is that well, the 1152 01:17:22,200 --> 01:17:25,200 state mandates it and we don't have power 1153 01:17:25,200 --> 01:17:29,200 to do it. Then why are the other counties 1154 01:17:29,200 --> 01:17:32,200 doing it? Did they have more power then 1155 01:17:32,200 --> 01:17:34,200 you guys? I'm just curious to hear your 1156 01:17:34,200 --> 01:17:36,200 response. Thank you. 1157 01:17:36,200 --> 01:17:38,200 >> thank you. 1158 01:17:38,200 --> 01:17:40,200 >> I see no further comments. 1159 01:17:40,200 --> 01:17:44,200 >> okay. Next is the time for board and 1160 01:17:44,200 --> 01:17:47,200 the county executive reports and todd you 1161 01:17:47,200 --> 01:17:48,200 want to lead? 1162 01:17:48,200 --> 01:17:51,200 >> yeah. Couple things and then dr. 1163 01:17:51,200 --> 01:17:54,200 oldham is on the call to answer a couple 1164 01:17:54,200 --> 01:17:56,200 questions about most recently this 1165 01:17:56,200 --> 01:17:59,200 mandate. The first one I wanted to share 1166 01:17:59,200 --> 01:18:01,200 we are getting to the end of the year and 1167 01:18:01,200 --> 01:18:03,200 think it is really important we reflect on 1168 01:18:03,200 --> 01:18:06,200 just the important stuff our staff has 1169 01:18:06,200 --> 01:18:08,200 done. We have a lot of projects and will 1170 01:18:08,200 --> 01:18:11,200 be remiss not to say between public health 1171 01:18:11,200 --> 01:18:12,200 staff recollect public safety folks those 1172 01:18:12,200 --> 01:18:14,200 are directly impacted and helping address 1173 01:18:14,200 --> 01:18:17,200 just the challenge over the last 2 years. 1174 01:18:17,200 --> 01:18:20,200 I would be remise not to say thank you to 1175 01:18:20,200 --> 01:18:22,200 them.

So, I 1184 01:18:46,200 --> 01:18:48,200 just wanted to give a quick thank you to 1185 01:18:48,200 --> 01:18:51,200 our staff that have just worked tirelessly 1186 01:18:51,200 --> 01:18:54,200 over the last year. Also wanted to talk 1187 01:18:54,200 --> 01:18:58,200 about some highlights and going to try to 1188 01:18:58,200 --> 01:19:00,200 more as we get to the new year but we had 1189 01:19:00,200 --> 01:19:04,202 two challenge awards. Csac had a winter 1190 01:19:05,200 --> 01:19:08,602 conference and 433 entries from all the 1191 01:19:09,200 --> 01:19:12,200 counties, the 58 counties around the 1192 01:19:12,200 --> 01:19:14,200 state. Our county received two of those 1193 01:19:14,200 --> 01:19:16,200 awards. One a challenge award around 1194 01:19:16,200 --> 01:19:18,402 dispersement for emergency rental 1195 01:19:19,200 --> 01:19:20,200 assistance funding. You as a board 1196 01:19:20,200 --> 01:19:23,200 supported having our internal staff run 1197 01:19:23,200 --> 01:19:26,200 that program in partnership with the city 1198 01:19:26,200 --> 01:19:29,200 of roseville. We were able to distribute 1199 01:19:29,200 --> 01:19:32,200 over $8.1 million for rental assistance 1200 01:19:34,200 --> 01:19:36,200 which allow the residents to stay in their 1201 01:19:36,200 --> 01:19:39,200 homes. We had a merit award that was a 1202 01:19:39,200 --> 01:19:42,200 virtual format and I talked about this 1203 01:19:42,200 --> 01:19:45,200 individually I think collectively as a 1204 01:19:45,200 --> 01:19:47,200 organization there is silver lining we 1205 01:19:47,200 --> 01:19:49,200 have to look at and part of it is how we 1206 01:19:49,200 --> 01:19:51,200 utilize technology to provide a service to 1207 01:19:51,200 --> 01:19:55,802 our residents and this award was a virtual 1208 01:19:56,200 --> 01:19:58,200 format for cal works participants and 1209 01:19:58,200 --> 01:20:01,200 recipients to work in a virtual resource 1210 01:20:01,200 --> 01:20:04,200 huddle format and allowed those folks to 1211 01:20:04,200 --> 01:20:06,200 come in and are speak to us if they didn't 1212 01:20:06,200 --> 01:20:09,200 feel comfortable coming into provide those 1213 01:20:09,200 --> 01:20:11,200 services and think the success of that 1214 01:20:11,200 --> 01:20:14,200 program will probably take place and 1215 01:20:14,200 --> 01:20:16,200 continue long after we moved through the 1216 01:20:16,200 --> 01:20:19,200 pandemic work. Really good work in that 1217 01:20:19,200 --> 01:20:22,200 arena. The last thing I say, [inaudible 1218 01:20:22,200 --> 01:20:25,200 comments] she is a program manager in hhs. 1219 01:20:25,200 --> 01:20:28,200 she last week was recognized through the 1220 01:20:28,200 --> 01:20:30,200 community collaborative in tahoe truckee 1221 01:20:30,200 --> 01:20:33,200 as the partner of the year award.

The last thing I served 1227 01:20:47,200 --> 01:20:49,200 this last year as chairman for the 1228 01:20:49,200 --> 01:20:51,200 [inaudible comments] regional manager 1229 01:20:51,200 --> 01:20:53,200 association. This is the county and the 1230 01:20:53,200 --> 01:20:56,200 city managers, we get together on a 1231 01:20:56,200 --> 01:20:59,200 quarterly basis talk about transportation, 1232 01:20:59,200 --> 01:21:02,200 green means go, housing, infrastructure 1233 01:21:02,200 --> 01:21:05,200 funding, I think it is always important to 1234 01:21:05,200 --> 01:21:07,200 work regionally on issues, we do that at 1235 01:21:07,200 --> 01:21:10,200 the county level and think it serves well 1236 01:21:10,200 --> 01:21:12,200 to be partners around the region as well. 1237 01:21:12,200 --> 01:21:14,200 I just wanted to say thanks for the 1238 01:21:14,200 --> 01:21:17,200 support for me serving in that capacity 1239 01:21:17,200 --> 01:21:20,200 the last year. Finally I will turn it to 1240 01:21:20,200 --> 01:21:24,200 rob oldham.

So, good 1251 01:21:50,200 --> 01:21:51,200 morning chair weygandt and members of the 1252 01:21:51,200 --> 01:21:54,200 board. Rob oldham. Recent development 1253 01:21:59,200 --> 01:22:01,200 with statewide mask mandate discussed this 1254 01:22:01,200 --> 01:22:05,200 morning. Asked to provide a brief covid 1255 01:22:05,200 --> 01:22:08,200 update. As you recall, my last report to 1256 01:22:08,200 --> 01:22:10,200 your board on covid was really back when 1257 01:22:10,200 --> 01:22:13,200 our schools and hospitals and other 1258 01:22:13,200 --> 01:22:15,402 critical infrastructure were being 1259 01:22:16,200 --> 01:22:20,200 stretched very thin by the delta variant 1260 01:22:20,200 --> 01:22:23,200 surge. Since then our case rate and 1261 01:22:23,200 --> 01:22:25,200 hospitalizations have dropped 1262 01:22:26,200 --> 01:22:28,200 significantly, especially from their highs 1263 01:22:28,200 --> 01:22:32,200 back in august and september. They have 1264 01:22:32,200 --> 01:22:35,200 not yet returned to their pre-delta 1265 01:22:35,200 --> 01:22:39,200 variant lows and also sense then many more 1266 01:22:39,200 --> 01:22:41,200 people have been vaccinated or received 1267 01:22:41,200 --> 01:22:44,200 boosters and new promising therapeutics 1268 01:22:44,200 --> 01:22:46,200 have also been introduced that can 1269 01:22:46,200 --> 01:22:48,402 dramatically decrease severe illness, 1270 01:22:49,200 --> 01:22:51,200 hospitalization and death from covid, so 1271 01:22:51,200 --> 01:22:55,200 over all news on the covid front is 1272 01:22:55,200 --> 01:22:58,200 relatively good. But late last month we 1273 01:22:58,200 --> 01:23:01,200 began to hear about a new variant 1274 01:23:01,200 --> 01:23:04,200 beginning to spread in other countries and 1275 01:23:04,200 --> 01:23:07,200 just last week the variant started showing 1276 01:23:07,200 --> 01:23:11,200 up in california. While we haven't had a 1277 01:23:11,200 --> 01:23:14,200 case of the variant identified in placer 1278 01:23:14,200 --> 01:23:18,802 county yet, it has been found in the 1279 01:23:19,200 --> 01:23:22,602 sacramento area and reasonable to expect 1280 01:23:23,200 --> 01:23:25,200 we will find it here in placer very soon. 1281 01:23:25,200 --> 01:23:28,200 while we are still very early in our 1282 01:23:28,200 --> 01:23:31,200 process of learning about omicron. It is 1283 01:23:31,200 --> 01:23:34,200 very new in the world stage. What we know 1284 01:23:34,200 --> 01:23:38,200 is omicron has a large number of mutations 1285 01:23:38,200 --> 01:23:41,602 compared to other variants and those 1286 01:23:42,200 --> 01:23:44,200 appear to decrease the ability of ant 1287 01:23:44,200 --> 01:23:48,200 bodies in the flood which come from 1288 01:23:48,200 --> 01:23:50,200 vaccine or previous infection so can 1289 01:23:50,200 --> 01:23:53,200 decrease the ability of the ant bodies to 1290 01:23:53,200 --> 01:23:56,602 neutralize the virus and recently released 1291 01:23:57,200 --> 01:24:00,200 data seemed to suggest vaccines 1292 01:24:00,200 --> 01:24:02,200 effectiveness may be significant lower 1293 01:24:02,200 --> 01:24:05,200 against omicron, but vaccine boosters 1294 01:24:06,200 --> 01:24:08,200 still appear to be quite effective at 1295 01:24:08,200 --> 01:24:10,402 preventing illness, especially severe 1296 01:24:11,200 --> 01:24:15,202 illness. What will omicron mean? It is 1297 01:24:17,200 --> 01:24:20,200 too early to tell exactly. It is quite 1298 01:24:20,200 --> 01:24:23,602 possible that omicron will become the 1299 01:24:25,200 --> 01:24:27,200 dominant variant later this winter and 1300 01:24:27,200 --> 01:24:29,200 reasonable to expect we'll see a winter 1301 01:24:29,200 --> 01:24:32,200 surge both in covid cases but also in 1302 01:24:32,200 --> 01:24:35,200 other respiratory illness. We already 1303 01:24:35,200 --> 01:24:38,200 have seen recent surges in respiratory 1304 01:24:38,200 --> 01:24:42,200 illnesses and uptick in the last couple 1305 01:24:42,200 --> 01:24:44,200 weeks of covid cases and hospitalization, 1306 01:24:44,200 --> 01:24:47,200 since the thanksgiving holiday. Not at 1307 01:24:47,200 --> 01:24:50,200 the same rates that we saw this time last 1308 01:24:50,200 --> 01:24:54,202 year. In addition, we talked about the 1309 01:24:57,200 --> 01:25:00,602 statewide masking mandate that will go 1310 01:25:02,200 --> 01:25:04,200 effective tomorrow in addition to the 1311 01:25:04,200 --> 01:25:07,200 statewide indoor masking mandate yesterday 1312 01:25:07,200 --> 01:25:10,200 the state tightened up guidance for so 1313 01:25:10,200 --> 01:25:12,200 called mega events so events more then a 1314 01:25:12,200 --> 01:25:15,200 thousand indoor attendees or more then 10 1315 01:25:15,200 --> 01:25:18,200 thousand outdoor attendees and now are 1316 01:25:18,200 --> 01:25:21,200 requiring all attendees to show proof of 1317 01:25:21,200 --> 01:25:23,200 vaccination or a negative test within one 1318 01:25:23,200 --> 01:25:29,200 day for ant jen test and 2 days for pc r 1319 01:25:30,200 --> 01:25:33,200 test. Placer count y impact, we don't 1320 01:25:33,200 --> 01:25:35,200 have many venues that can hold over a 1321 01:25:35,200 --> 01:25:37,200 thousand people indoors in placer county 1322 01:25:37,200 --> 01:25:40,200 but certainly in other counties that will 1323 01:25:40,200 --> 01:25:44,200 have a significant impact. Yard the state 1324 01:25:44,200 --> 01:25:46,200 the issued a new travel advisory 1325 01:25:46,200 --> 01:25:49,200 recommending all travellers arriving in 1326 01:25:49,200 --> 01:25:52,602 california test for covid-19 within 3 to 5 1327 01:25:53,200 --> 01:25:55,200 days after arrival regardless of 1328 01:25:55,200 --> 01:25:56,200 vaccination status. Lots of people are 1329 01:25:56,200 --> 01:25:59,200 asking if we anticipate a return to 1330 01:25:59,200 --> 01:26:02,200 lock-downs or limits on business capacity 1331 01:26:02,200 --> 01:26:04,200 or operations like we did under the state 1332 01:26:04,200 --> 01:26:07,200 blue print for healthier economy. I think 1333 01:26:07,200 --> 01:26:10,200 it is notable it has been all most exactly 1334 01:26:10,200 --> 01:26:13,200 since month since the blue print retired 1335 01:26:13,200 --> 01:26:15,200 back in june so I would be very surprised 1336 01:26:15,200 --> 01:26:19,200 if we back to anything like those levels 1337 01:26:19,200 --> 01:26:21,200 of restrictions. I have been surprised 1338 01:26:21,200 --> 01:26:24,200 before and can be again but we are in 1339 01:26:24,200 --> 01:26:26,200 really good shape relative to where we 1340 01:26:26,200 --> 01:26:29,200 were last year at this time or back in 1341 01:26:29,200 --> 01:26:31,200 june.

I know they have 1386 01:28:32,200 --> 01:28:36,200 to worry about state abc, but as far as 1387 01:28:36,200 --> 01:28:40,200 our own county staff, we got folks who 1388 01:28:40,200 --> 01:28:43,200 have to do the environmental health checks 1389 01:28:43,200 --> 01:28:44,200 at our restaurants, do you anticipate 1390 01:28:44,200 --> 01:28:47,200 those folks going out and closing down our 1391 01:28:47,200 --> 01:28:48,200 restaurants? 1392 01:28:48,200 --> 01:28:51,602 >> I really am not hearing about 1393 01:28:53,200 --> 01:28:55,200 enforcement even from the state so that is 1394 01:28:55,200 --> 01:28:57,200 a question we are getting a lot about-by 1395 01:28:57,200 --> 01:28:59,200 the way on restaurants there are a number 1396 01:28:59,200 --> 01:29:02,602 of exceptions on the statewide indoor 1397 01:29:03,200 --> 01:29:05,200 masking mandate and you can go to the 1398 01:29:05,200 --> 01:29:07,200 state website and see that but while 1399 01:29:07,200 --> 01:29:11,200 eating and drinking.

Infrastructure funding 1575 01:37:52,200 --> 01:37:54,200 reach historic levels over the next 5 1576 01:37:54,200 --> 01:37:57,602 years competing for roads bridges water 1577 01:37:58,200 --> 01:38:00,200 sewer and electric vehicle infrastructure. 1578 01:38:00,200 --> 01:38:03,200 broadband received historic funding with 1579 01:38:03,200 --> 01:38:06,200 $6 billion from the state and $65 billion 1580 01:38:06,200 --> 01:38:08,200 from the federal government of which the 1581 01:38:08,200 --> 01:38:11,200 state should see $6 billion of the $65 1582 01:38:11,200 --> 01:38:15,200 billion. Staff continues to work hard to 1583 01:38:15,200 --> 01:38:17,200 make sure every resident and business that 1584 01:38:17,200 --> 01:38:20,602 wants to receive high-speed internet will 1585 01:38:21,200 --> 01:38:24,200 receive high-speed internet at reliable 1586 01:38:24,200 --> 01:38:27,200 and affordable cost. Wildfire risk 1587 01:38:28,200 --> 01:38:31,200 reduction continue to be top priority of 1588 01:38:31,200 --> 01:38:33,200 the board and county staff. Investment in 1589 01:38:33,200 --> 01:38:36,200 that front has-in the billions of dollars 1590 01:38:36,200 --> 01:38:39,200 range which michael and rich from holland 1591 01:38:39,200 --> 01:38:42,200 and knight will discuss in a minute to 1592 01:38:42,200 --> 01:38:44,200 really try to reduce fuel load in the 1593 01:38:44,200 --> 01:38:47,602 local forest. Going into 2022, which is 1594 01:38:48,200 --> 01:38:50,200 setting up to be a fairly unique year for 1595 01:38:50,200 --> 01:38:53,200 me working with this job on a state level 1596 01:38:53,200 --> 01:38:55,200 you have redistricting which is yet to be 1597 01:38:55,200 --> 01:38:58,200 settled.

You also have back in 1600 01:39:04,200 --> 01:39:07,200 2012 the voters approved term limit 1601 01:39:07,200 --> 01:39:10,200 initiative which you will see the effect 1602 01:39:10,200 --> 01:39:15,200 of the term limit as folks expire for the 1603 01:39:15,200 --> 01:39:17,200 seats in 2024. Many members are looking 1604 01:39:17,200 --> 01:39:20,200 for other jobs at this point. You have a 1605 01:39:20,200 --> 01:39:23,200 gubernatorial this fall, senate election, 1606 01:39:23,200 --> 01:39:25,200 various statewide offices and what is 1607 01:39:25,200 --> 01:39:27,200 setting up to be a pretty large ballot. 1608 01:39:27,200 --> 01:39:29,200 as of this point you have up to 4 1609 01:39:29,200 --> 01:39:32,200 initiatives just on legalizing sports 1610 01:39:32,200 --> 01:39:34,200 gambling in the state.

Chair, I have a question. I want 1616 01:39:47,200 --> 01:39:50,200 to clarify. You said members expire. The 1617 01:39:50,200 --> 01:39:51,200 term expires? 1618 01:39:51,200 --> 01:39:54,200 >> the term limits-I should clarify- 1619 01:39:57,200 --> 01:40:00,200 >> the more seasons joel the more you pay 1620 01:40:00,200 --> 01:40:02,402 attention to the distinction. 1621 01:40:04,200 --> 01:40:05,200 [laughter] 1622 01:40:05,200 --> 01:40:07,200 >> if it please your board my name is rich 1623 01:40:07,200 --> 01:40:10,602 gold. I appreciate the opportunities to 1624 01:40:12,200 --> 01:40:14,200 speak with you all today along with my 1625 01:40:14,200 --> 01:40:17,200 colleague mike gullano. I wanted to start 1626 01:40:17,200 --> 01:40:19,200 out just by thanking you all for all the 1627 01:40:19,200 --> 01:40:22,200 good work you as the board did this year 1628 01:40:22,200 --> 01:40:24,200 advocating for the county federal 1629 01:40:24,200 --> 01:40:26,200 priorities. It was obviously a challenge 1630 01:40:26,200 --> 01:40:29,200 with limited capability to have personal 1631 01:40:29,200 --> 01:40:32,200 interaction with members of congress and 1632 01:40:32,200 --> 01:40:35,200 members of the executive branch but we got 1633 01:40:35,200 --> 01:40:38,200 a lot done and I think we are rounding the 1634 01:40:38,200 --> 01:40:40,200 corner and hoping that congress will be 1635 01:40:40,200 --> 01:40:43,200 back in business taking personal meetings 1636 01:40:43,200 --> 01:40:45,200 as well as the executive branch and first 1637 01:40:45,200 --> 01:40:49,200 quarter of 2022. I also just want to tip 1638 01:40:49,200 --> 01:40:52,200 my hat as well supervisor weygandt. We 1639 01:40:52,200 --> 01:40:55,200 worked together what seems over a hundred 1640 01:40:55,200 --> 01:40:58,200 years. He's been a great elected official 1641 01:40:58,200 --> 01:41:00,200 to work with and shown true leadership on 1642 01:41:00,200 --> 01:41:03,200 so many issues from water to 1643 01:41:03,200 --> 01:41:06,200 transportation and look forward to this 1644 01:41:06,200 --> 01:41:07,200 final lap here robert. 1645 01:41:07,200 --> 01:41:09,200 >> thanks rich. 1646 01:41:09,200 --> 01:41:12,200 >> sure. Just wanted to give a brief 1647 01:41:12,200 --> 01:41:15,200 overview here and we can go to the next 1648 01:41:15,200 --> 01:41:19,202 slide. With regard to where things stand. 1649 01:41:20,200 --> 01:41:23,200 obviously at the federal level we have a 1650 01:41:23,200 --> 01:41:26,200 very closely divided congress with the 1651 01:41:26,200 --> 01:41:30,200 senate tied 50/50, the house only a few 1652 01:41:30,200 --> 01:41:32,200 seats apart. That makes getting 1653 01:41:32,200 --> 01:41:34,200 legislation through the process very 1654 01:41:34,200 --> 01:41:37,200 difficult. On the other hand it also 1655 01:41:37,200 --> 01:41:39,402 produced bipartisan infrastructure bill 1656 01:41:40,200 --> 01:41:42,200 this summer which required the margins 1657 01:41:42,200 --> 01:41:45,200 required a very bipartisan effort for that 1658 01:41:45,200 --> 01:41:49,200 legislation. I think we had a very 1659 01:41:49,200 --> 01:41:52,200 productive year. We started out in 1660 01:41:52,200 --> 01:41:55,200 february moving the american rescue plan 1661 01:41:55,200 --> 01:41:58,200 through congress and providing lead 1662 01:42:00,200 --> 01:42:02,200 funding for covid and economically 1663 01:42:02,200 --> 01:42:05,200 impacted interests like restaurants and 1664 01:42:05,200 --> 01:42:08,200 other community facilities that had really 1665 01:42:08,200 --> 01:42:11,602 suffered economically during the shut down 1666 01:42:12,200 --> 01:42:15,602 from the pandemic. That legislation lead 1667 01:42:16,200 --> 01:42:19,200 us into discussion around the bipartisan 1668 01:42:19,200 --> 01:42:22,200 infrastructure bill which started in april 1669 01:42:22,200 --> 01:42:25,200 and we were successful passing that bill 1670 01:42:25,200 --> 01:42:28,200 into law in august, and had good 1671 01:42:28,200 --> 01:42:31,200 bipartisan support in both the senate and 1672 01:42:31,200 --> 01:42:35,200 house for that legislation. And while it 1673 01:42:35,200 --> 01:42:38,602 passed-while that bill passed through the 1674 01:42:39,200 --> 01:42:43,200 senate in august, it only finally passed 1675 01:42:43,200 --> 01:42:45,200 here in november through the house of 1676 01:42:45,200 --> 01:42:47,200 representatives and we will be talking 1677 01:42:47,200 --> 01:42:49,200 about the programs included in that bill 1678 01:42:49,200 --> 01:42:52,200 and in 2022 a lot of those programs will 1679 01:42:52,200 --> 01:42:55,200 be pumping money through the system for 1680 01:42:55,200 --> 01:42:57,200 everything as joel referenced from 1681 01:42:57,200 --> 01:43:00,200 transportation to water infrastructure and 1682 01:43:03,200 --> 01:43:05,200 broadband. We are working on the current 1683 01:43:05,200 --> 01:43:08,200 reconciliation bill entitled build back 1684 01:43:08,200 --> 01:43:12,200 better and that bill likely will go into 1685 01:43:12,200 --> 01:43:15,200 2022. We will not finish before christmas 1686 01:43:15,200 --> 01:43:18,200 as senators had hoped would be the case, 1687 01:43:18,200 --> 01:43:20,200 so we are likely going to take up that 1688 01:43:20,200 --> 01:43:24,802 bill again when we come back in january. 1689 01:43:25,200 --> 01:43:26,200 in addition in january we need to finish 1690 01:43:26,200 --> 01:43:29,602 up the fy22 federal appropriation bills 1691 01:43:30,200 --> 01:43:32,200 which also provide significant funding for 1692 01:43:32,200 --> 01:43:35,602 county priorities, and move forward then 1693 01:43:36,200 --> 01:43:40,200 into the new cycle for fy23. So, mike let 1694 01:43:40,200 --> 01:43:44,200 me kick it over to you for the next slide. 1695 01:43:44,200 --> 01:43:46,200 >> thanks rich. I'll do a lilt deeper 1696 01:43:46,200 --> 01:43:50,200 dive on topics that rich mentioned. So, 1697 01:43:50,200 --> 01:43:54,200 really the past year, year and a half have 1698 01:43:54,200 --> 01:43:58,200 been focused on covid response. At the 1699 01:43:58,200 --> 01:44:02,202 federal level. Next slide. So, to date 1700 01:44:06,200 --> 01:44:09,602 congress has enacted 5 major covid relief 1701 01:44:11,200 --> 01:44:15,200 packages to the tune of $5 trillion over 1702 01:44:15,200 --> 01:44:17,200 the next decade. The most well known of 1703 01:44:17,200 --> 01:44:21,200 those 5 are really the third, which is the 1704 01:44:21,200 --> 01:44:24,200 cares act, which was enacted in march of 1705 01:44:24,200 --> 01:44:28,202 2020 and then the american rescue plan act 1706 01:44:30,200 --> 01:44:34,802 arpa enacted in march of 21. So, one of 1707 01:44:35,200 --> 01:44:39,200 the flaws of the cares act even at $1.8 1708 01:44:39,200 --> 01:44:41,200 trillion was that at least from a local 1709 01:44:41,200 --> 01:44:44,200 government perspective, it didn't get 1710 01:44:44,200 --> 01:44:48,200 money directly to most counties and cities 1711 01:44:48,200 --> 01:44:51,200 across the country. It was well 1712 01:44:51,200 --> 01:44:54,200 intentioned but in the response to get the 1713 01:44:54,200 --> 01:44:57,200 money out the door quickly the governor 1714 01:44:57,200 --> 01:45:00,200 got most of those dollars to allocate to 1715 01:45:00,200 --> 01:45:04,200 the local governments and that took longer 1716 01:45:04,200 --> 01:45:08,200 then it should have. Coming into 21 one 1717 01:45:08,200 --> 01:45:10,200 of the goals for the next package, the 1718 01:45:10,200 --> 01:45:13,200 arpa plan was to insure that local 1719 01:45:13,200 --> 01:45:16,200 governments got that funding directly. 1720 01:45:16,200 --> 01:45:20,802 next slide. So, arpa was passed in march 1721 01:45:22,200 --> 01:45:25,200 of 21. It provided $360 billion directly 1722 01:45:28,200 --> 01:45:32,200 to local and state governments and the 1723 01:45:32,200 --> 01:45:34,200 good news one of the big victories from 1724 01:45:34,200 --> 01:45:37,200 earlier this year was that it provided 1725 01:45:37,200 --> 01:45:39,200 directed funding to local governments of 1726 01:45:39,200 --> 01:45:42,602 all sizes including placer county which 1727 01:45:44,200 --> 01:45:47,200 received $77 million from the local 1728 01:45:48,200 --> 01:45:51,200 government relief fund on top of the other 1729 01:45:51,200 --> 01:45:54,602 monies related to rental assistance and 1730 01:45:56,200 --> 01:45:58,200 money through hud and other departments. 1731 01:45:58,200 --> 01:46:02,200 so, that really was the response phase for 1732 01:46:02,200 --> 01:46:06,200 covid, which just ended over the summer of 1733 01:46:06,200 --> 01:46:09,602 21. Once those bills got done, congress 1734 01:46:12,200 --> 01:46:16,202 attempted to pivot to from recovery from 1735 01:46:17,200 --> 01:46:20,200 response to recovery, so that was when the 1736 01:46:20,200 --> 01:46:23,200 infrastructure package started to pick up 1737 01:46:23,200 --> 01:46:26,602 speed. Initially the president had hoped 1738 01:46:28,200 --> 01:46:31,200 to pass a package in the neighborhood of 1739 01:46:31,200 --> 01:46:35,200 $4 trillion, which even in dc is a lot of 1740 01:46:35,200 --> 01:46:39,200 money, so realizing that was not going to 1741 01:46:39,200 --> 01:46:43,200 be possible they decided to bifurcate the 1742 01:46:43,200 --> 01:46:45,200 package to create a traditional 1743 01:46:45,200 --> 01:46:48,200 infrastructure package and then a social 1744 01:46:48,200 --> 01:46:51,200 infrastructure package. Next slide. So, 1745 01:46:55,200 --> 01:46:59,802 on a parallel track, congress also as rich 1746 01:47:00,200 --> 01:47:03,200 noted proceeding with the annual 1747 01:47:03,200 --> 01:47:06,200 appropriations process and one new 1748 01:47:07,200 --> 01:47:10,200 development on that front, it was the 1749 01:47:10,200 --> 01:47:13,200 return of congressional earmarks. The 1750 01:47:13,200 --> 01:47:16,200 board will recall earmarks at the federal 1751 01:47:16,200 --> 01:47:20,200 level went away in fiscal year 10 so after 1752 01:47:20,200 --> 01:47:23,602 a 11 year hiatus, congress when the 1753 01:47:26,200 --> 01:47:29,200 democrat said won the house and senate 1754 01:47:29,200 --> 01:47:31,200 decided to bring back the earmark process 1755 01:47:31,200 --> 01:47:36,402 really on a trial basis for fy22, and we 1756 01:47:37,200 --> 01:47:39,200 are pleased to report the county has one 1757 01:47:39,200 --> 01:47:43,200 project pending in those fy22 bills, which 1758 01:47:43,200 --> 01:47:47,200 were not completed by october 1 when they 1759 01:47:47,200 --> 01:47:49,200 should have, but we are hopeful to get 1760 01:47:49,200 --> 01:47:53,200 these bills done before the end of 1761 01:47:53,200 --> 01:47:56,200 february, and there is $580 thousand 1762 01:47:56,200 --> 01:48:00,802 pending for a body worm camera program at 1763 01:48:03,200 --> 01:48:06,200 the sheriff office. Next slide. As rich 1764 01:48:06,200 --> 01:48:09,602 noted, the infrastructure bill enacted on 1765 01:48:11,200 --> 01:48:13,402 november 15. It's $1.2 trillion for 1766 01:48:15,200 --> 01:48:17,200 traditional infrastructure. We are 1767 01:48:17,200 --> 01:48:21,200 working with staff to identify the various 1768 01:48:21,200 --> 01:48:24,200 programs of interest to the county. Joel 1769 01:48:24,200 --> 01:48:28,200 noted that there is $3 billion included in 1770 01:48:28,200 --> 01:48:31,200 there for wildfire related activities. 1771 01:48:35,200 --> 01:48:38,200 also importantly new policy changes on the 1772 01:48:38,200 --> 01:48:41,200 wildfire front included including creating 1773 01:48:41,200 --> 01:48:44,200 a new categorical exclusion under neppa 1774 01:48:44,200 --> 01:48:47,200 for fuel reduction and fuel break 1775 01:48:47,200 --> 01:48:50,200 activities, which is welcome change. Not 1776 01:48:50,200 --> 01:48:53,200 a pant sia but a step in the right 1777 01:48:53,200 --> 01:48:56,602 direction. That was signed into law 1778 01:48:57,200 --> 01:49:00,602 november 15. We expect most of the 1779 01:49:02,200 --> 01:49:05,200 formula dollars from this $1.2 trillion 1780 01:49:06,200 --> 01:49:10,200 package to start to flow to the states 1781 01:49:10,200 --> 01:49:13,200 during the first quarter of 2022 for all 1782 01:49:13,200 --> 01:49:15,402 the traditional infrastructure funding 1783 01:49:16,200 --> 01:49:20,200 from roads and bridges and to safe 1784 01:49:20,200 --> 01:49:22,200 drinking water and stormwater projects. 1785 01:49:22,200 --> 01:49:25,200 the other part of that funding package is 1786 01:49:25,200 --> 01:49:27,200 the competitive programs which were 1787 01:49:27,200 --> 01:49:29,200 created. Those are going to take longer 1788 01:49:29,200 --> 01:49:33,200 to get out the door. The various agencies 1789 01:49:33,200 --> 01:49:36,200 and jurisdictions have to hire up and 1790 01:49:36,200 --> 01:49:38,200 write the notice of funding availability, 1791 01:49:38,200 --> 01:49:41,200 so on the competitive side we expect to 1792 01:49:41,200 --> 01:49:45,202 see over the summer of 22. Next slide. 1793 01:49:50,200 --> 01:49:53,602 >> so, the second piece to the 1794 01:49:55,200 --> 01:49:56,200 infrastructure package is social spending 1795 01:49:56,200 --> 01:49:59,200 which is called the build back better 1796 01:49:59,200 --> 01:50:03,202 program here in dc. 24 the house enacted 1797 01:50:09,200 --> 01:50:12,200 a package over $3 trillion. That wasn't 1798 01:50:12,200 --> 01:50:16,200 going to pass in the senate for ez reasons 1799 01:50:16,200 --> 01:50:18,200 you have probably seen in the press so the 1800 01:50:18,200 --> 01:50:20,200 senate is attempting to draft a more 1801 01:50:20,200 --> 01:50:22,200 modest size package to the tune of $1.7 1802 01:50:22,200 --> 01:50:25,602 trillion. Leader schumer and the senate 1803 01:50:28,200 --> 01:50:30,200 told his caucus he is hoping to have a 1804 01:50:30,200 --> 01:50:33,200 vote on the package before they leave for 1805 01:50:33,200 --> 01:50:36,200 christmas. That is unlikely but that is 1806 01:50:36,200 --> 01:50:39,200 their goal. And should that pass we will 1807 01:50:39,200 --> 01:50:42,200 get with your staff to make sure that they 1808 01:50:42,200 --> 01:50:47,200 are aware of what's in it and so woe can 1809 01:50:47,200 --> 01:50:49,200 compete for the social dollars in addition 1810 01:50:49,200 --> 01:50:51,200 to the traditional infrastructure dollars. 1811 01:50:51,200 --> 01:50:55,802 next slide. So, what's left to do over 1812 01:50:58,200 --> 01:51:02,200 the next couple weeks in dc. Rich 1813 01:51:02,200 --> 01:51:03,200 mentioned government funding. We are 1814 01:51:03,200 --> 01:51:06,200 operating under our second continuing 1815 01:51:06,200 --> 01:51:08,200 resolution to keep the federal government 1816 01:51:08,200 --> 01:51:11,200 open through february 18. Congress will 1817 01:51:12,200 --> 01:51:15,200 use these next 6 weeks to finish those 1818 01:51:15,200 --> 01:51:18,200 fy22 spending bills that include the 1819 01:51:18,200 --> 01:51:22,200 funding for the sheriff body worn camera 1820 01:51:22,200 --> 01:51:24,200 program. In addition, the second item 1821 01:51:24,200 --> 01:51:27,200 congress needs to raise the federal debt 1822 01:51:27,200 --> 01:51:30,200 limit which is the government ability to 1823 01:51:30,200 --> 01:51:33,200 barrow. According to the treasury 1824 01:51:33,200 --> 01:51:35,200 secretary we will be up against that limit 1825 01:51:35,200 --> 01:51:38,200 on december 15, which according to my 1826 01:51:38,200 --> 01:51:41,200 calendar is tomorrow, so the senate is 1827 01:51:41,200 --> 01:51:45,200 expected to pass a debt limit increase 1828 01:51:45,200 --> 01:51:47,200 this afternoon and the house will attempt 1829 01:51:47,200 --> 01:51:50,200 to pass that this evening. The third item 1830 01:51:50,200 --> 01:51:53,200 the social spending is again the build 1831 01:51:53,200 --> 01:51:55,200 back better plan that was mentioned on the 1832 01:51:55,200 --> 01:51:59,200 prior slide. The democrats want to get 1833 01:51:59,200 --> 01:52:02,200 that done before christmas. Unlikely it 1834 01:52:02,200 --> 01:52:04,200 is more likely to slide into the end of 1835 01:52:04,200 --> 01:52:08,200 this year or early next year, so stay 1836 01:52:08,200 --> 01:52:10,200 tuned on that. So, in terms of looking 1837 01:52:10,200 --> 01:52:13,602 forward to 2022, next slide--there is a 1838 01:52:19,200 --> 01:52:23,200 lot of federal money coming down the pike 1839 01:52:23,200 --> 01:52:25,200 and we have been working with staff to get 1840 01:52:25,200 --> 01:52:29,200 up to speed on the different programs. 1841 01:52:29,200 --> 01:52:31,200 so, really it is 3 legs of a federal 1842 01:52:31,200 --> 01:52:35,200 funding platform. That is the way we like 1843 01:52:35,200 --> 01:52:38,200 to think about it. There are competitive 1844 01:52:38,200 --> 01:52:40,200 federal grants the county will apply for 1845 01:52:40,200 --> 01:52:43,200 and has done very well historically 1846 01:52:43,200 --> 01:52:45,200 including earlier this year a $5 million 1847 01:52:45,200 --> 01:52:49,202 grant for the western placer county hcp. 1848 01:52:50,200 --> 01:52:53,200 those will come out in the spring time. 1849 01:52:53,200 --> 01:52:56,602 there is the annual congressional federal 1850 01:52:57,200 --> 01:53:00,200 appropriation process which will good 1851 01:53:02,200 --> 01:53:04,200 begin in february which is 12 month 1852 01:53:04,200 --> 01:53:07,200 process and then the-special funding 1853 01:53:09,200 --> 01:53:11,200 opportunities and in our case that is the 1854 01:53:11,200 --> 01:53:13,200 federal infrastructure package which is 1855 01:53:13,200 --> 01:53:16,200 already enacted and then the 1856 01:53:17,200 --> 01:53:19,200 reconciliation bill which may or may not 1857 01:53:19,200 --> 01:53:22,200 be enacted later this year. That is a 1858 01:53:22,200 --> 01:53:24,200 good way to organize our thoughts on that 1859 01:53:24,200 --> 01:53:26,200 and we already had a number of planning 1860 01:53:26,200 --> 01:53:28,200 meetings with your staff to walk through 1861 01:53:28,200 --> 01:53:31,200 the various opportunities for 2022 and 1862 01:53:31,200 --> 01:53:35,200 beyond. With that, thank you and happy to 1863 01:53:35,200 --> 01:53:36,200 take any questions. 1864 01:53:36,200 --> 01:53:39,200 >> thanks mike and rich.

Cindy. 1869 01:53:47,200 --> 01:53:50,200 >> hi, thanks so much for the report and 1870 01:53:50,200 --> 01:53:53,200 all the efforts going into this. I was at 1871 01:53:53,200 --> 01:53:57,202 a luncheon on saturday in which members 1872 01:54:00,200 --> 01:54:04,802 the u.s.

There 1899 01:55:26,200 --> 01:55:31,402 is a lot of good in this in the 1900 01:55:33,200 --> 01:55:35,200 infrastructure bill that money will be 1901 01:55:35,200 --> 01:55:37,200 flowing in the first quarter in terms of 1902 01:55:37,200 --> 01:55:41,200 dollars. In addition to policy change for 1903 01:55:41,200 --> 01:55:43,200 categorical exclusion for fuel break 1904 01:55:43,200 --> 01:55:46,200 activities which will speed up things on 1905 01:55:46,200 --> 01:55:48,200 federal lands. There is also policy 1906 01:55:48,200 --> 01:55:51,602 changes in there, such as historically 1907 01:55:52,200 --> 01:55:55,602 when the fire service hires firefighters 1908 01:55:56,200 --> 01:55:59,200 to fight wildfires they are considered 1909 01:55:59,200 --> 01:56:02,200 seasonal employees and that is just-that 1910 01:56:02,200 --> 01:56:05,200 is a challenge to find those folks at any 1911 01:56:05,200 --> 01:56:08,200 time but when we are dealing with covid 1912 01:56:08,200 --> 01:56:11,200 situation and labor shortages around the 1913 01:56:11,200 --> 01:56:14,200 country, the forest service really 1914 01:56:14,200 --> 01:56:17,200 struggled to find the right type of people 1915 01:56:17,200 --> 01:56:20,200 this past cycle, so what they have done is 1916 01:56:20,200 --> 01:56:24,200 created a new employee category at the 1917 01:56:24,200 --> 01:56:27,200 forest service to bring those folks on as 1918 01:56:27,200 --> 01:56:30,200 full-time employees so they have them in 1919 01:56:30,200 --> 01:56:33,200 reserve when these fires do occur across 1920 01:56:33,200 --> 01:56:36,200 the country. So, those are just a few 1921 01:56:36,200 --> 01:56:39,200 things I would note. Really placer county 1922 01:56:39,200 --> 01:56:43,200 speaks with a large voice on these issues 1923 01:56:43,200 --> 01:56:47,802 because of its success on the pccp. Your 1924 01:56:48,200 --> 01:56:52,200 county has a credibility here in town that 1925 01:56:52,200 --> 01:56:55,200 most counties do not, particularly on 1926 01:56:55,200 --> 01:56:57,200 resource issues, so we look forward to 1927 01:56:57,200 --> 01:57:01,200 continuing to work with you on that this 1928 01:57:01,200 --> 01:57:03,200 coming year. 1929 01:57:04,200 --> 01:57:06,200 >> thank you.

I like to start 1951 01:58:02,200 --> 01:58:05,200 with the budget looks like. We are in the 1952 01:58:05,200 --> 01:58:08,200 enacted 21-22 budget going into 1953 01:58:10,200 --> 01:58:13,200 constructing our budget we are in now. It 1954 01:58:13,200 --> 01:58:16,200 actually took a about 4 budget cycles this 1955 01:58:16,200 --> 01:58:19,200 year. There were 4 separate main budget 1956 01:58:19,200 --> 01:58:23,200 bills passed and dozens and dozens and 1957 01:58:23,200 --> 01:58:25,200 dozens of trailer bills to support the 1958 01:58:25,200 --> 01:58:29,200 spending plan that evolved over time since 1959 01:58:29,200 --> 01:58:31,200 we didn't know what was going to happen 1960 01:58:31,200 --> 01:58:34,602 with the state budget. California general 1961 01:58:35,200 --> 01:58:39,200 fund relies very heavily on the wealthiest 1962 01:58:39,200 --> 01:58:41,402 californians personal income tax 1963 01:58:42,200 --> 01:58:44,200 withholdings and capital gains and if you 1964 01:58:44,200 --> 01:58:46,200 have been following the stock market and 1965 01:58:46,200 --> 01:58:50,802 sure you have, the stock market has done 1966 01:58:52,200 --> 01:58:54,200 wonderful during the pandemic and as a 1967 01:58:54,200 --> 01:58:56,200 result the revenue in california general 1968 01:58:56,200 --> 01:58:58,200 fund even in addition to what came from 1969 01:58:58,200 --> 01:59:01,200 the federal relief package was levels we 1970 01:59:01,200 --> 01:59:03,200 have never seen before particularly 1971 01:59:03,200 --> 01:59:06,200 capital gains revenues that were realized 1972 01:59:06,200 --> 01:59:08,200 in the state budget in the 10s of billions 1973 01:59:08,200 --> 01:59:11,200 of dollars. As a result of that there was 1974 01:59:11,200 --> 01:59:12,200 much more money to spend then I think we 1975 01:59:12,200 --> 01:59:14,200 probably all thought we would have to 1976 01:59:14,200 --> 01:59:18,202 spend in january. The enacted budget has 1977 01:59:19,200 --> 01:59:23,802 a $47 billion with a b surplus built into 1978 01:59:24,200 --> 01:59:27,200 the budget. We have $21 billion reserve. 1979 01:59:27,200 --> 01:59:30,200 I do want to point out about 75 percent of 1980 01:59:30,200 --> 01:59:34,200 the surplus in this budget are in now was 1981 01:59:34,200 --> 01:59:36,200 devoted to 1 time spending and that was a 1982 01:59:36,200 --> 01:59:40,200 result of the fract that as californians 1983 01:59:40,200 --> 01:59:43,200 budget might correct itself a bit if the 1984 01:59:43,200 --> 01:59:45,200 stock market corrects it is a lot easier 1985 01:59:45,200 --> 01:59:49,200 to not spend one time money then to take 1986 01:59:49,200 --> 01:59:53,200 down a new program that relies on ongoing 1987 01:59:53,200 --> 01:59:56,602 funding. 75 percent of the 1 time dollars 1988 01:59:58,200 --> 02:00:02,202 were spent on 1 time expenditures. We did 1989 02:00:03,200 --> 02:00:07,200 get $25 million in the rescue plan and 1990 02:00:07,200 --> 02:00:09,200 alabama california has [inaudible 1991 02:00:09,200 --> 02:00:10,200 comments] to spend the dollars on 1992 02:00:10,200 --> 02:00:13,200 specified allocations. We do have-I 1993 02:00:13,200 --> 02:00:15,200 wanted to point out a couple things 1994 02:00:15,200 --> 02:00:17,200 specifically that are of interest to the 1995 02:00:17,200 --> 02:00:20,602 county. There was about $3 billion for 1996 02:00:21,200 --> 02:00:24,200 job emergency and increased water 1997 02:00:24,200 --> 02:00:26,200 resiliency and think there will be more of 1998 02:00:26,200 --> 02:00:29,602 that in 22. $31 million goes to protect 1999 02:00:30,200 --> 02:00:32,200 fish and wildlife from the changing 2000 02:00:32,200 --> 02:00:34,200 conditions. There is also a special set 2001 02:00:34,200 --> 02:00:38,200 aside for a new type of way to deal with 2002 02:00:38,200 --> 02:00:40,200 bio mass and in the budget itself it is 2003 02:00:40,200 --> 02:00:43,200 $50 million the department of conservation 2004 02:00:44,200 --> 02:00:46,200 will allocate once they build the program 2005 02:00:46,200 --> 02:00:48,200 it will be allocated through, but when you 2006 02:00:48,200 --> 02:00:51,200 peal the union in what is called the 2007 02:00:51,200 --> 02:00:52,200 budget change proposal which is what the 2008 02:00:52,200 --> 02:00:56,200 state department of finance like a book 2009 02:00:56,200 --> 02:00:58,200 report why they want to spend this money, 2010 02:00:58,200 --> 02:01:02,202 placer county were identified by name as 2011 02:01:03,200 --> 02:01:07,200 locations for which the bio mass money 2012 02:01:07,200 --> 02:01:10,200 might be spent in. They want to find 2013 02:01:10,200 --> 02:01:13,200 different ways to use the energy that is 2014 02:01:13,200 --> 02:01:17,200 created out of bio mass. As you are 2015 02:01:17,200 --> 02:01:19,200 painfully aware it is very difficult to 2016 02:01:19,200 --> 02:01:21,200 interconnect to the grid for electricity 2017 02:01:21,200 --> 02:01:23,200 that would be generated from the bio mass 2018 02:01:23,200 --> 02:01:25,200 and they are looking for other ways to 2019 02:01:25,200 --> 02:01:26,200 create energy sources that don't 2020 02:01:26,200 --> 02:01:29,200 necessarily connect to the grid. One of 2021 02:01:29,200 --> 02:01:32,200 the things mentioned in the bcp is a bio 2022 02:01:32,200 --> 02:01:37,402 oil or hydrogen based fuel so we have been 2023 02:01:38,200 --> 02:01:41,200 following with the department of 2024 02:01:41,200 --> 02:01:42,200 conservation, their plan to allocate the 2025 02:01:42,200 --> 02:01:44,200 money, they have to set up the application 2026 02:01:44,200 --> 02:01:47,200 process but we are certainly working to 2027 02:01:47,200 --> 02:01:49,200 position placer in a competitive position 2028 02:01:49,200 --> 02:01:51,200 for the dollars and it is very clear the 2029 02:01:51,200 --> 02:01:53,200 state would like to see you get it. There 2030 02:01:53,200 --> 02:01:56,200 is also funding in what is called the 2031 02:01:56,200 --> 02:02:00,200 climate catalyst fund to deal with funding 2032 02:02:00,200 --> 02:02:03,602 projects that alleviate wildfire risk and 2033 02:02:04,200 --> 02:02:07,200 prevent wildfire again to supervisor 2034 02:02:07,200 --> 02:02:09,200 gustafson's point, there is also funding 2035 02:02:09,200 --> 02:02:13,200 to cal recycle to deal with the organic 2036 02:02:13,200 --> 02:02:16,200 waste infrastructure. For those that 2037 02:02:16,200 --> 02:02:18,200 follow along [inaudible comments] waste 2038 02:02:18,200 --> 02:02:21,200 management authority, there is clearly a 2039 02:02:21,200 --> 02:02:23,200 problem with organic diversion in the more 2040 02:02:23,200 --> 02:02:26,200 rural parts of the state because you don't 2041 02:02:26,200 --> 02:02:28,200 necessarily have a way to separate that 2042 02:02:28,200 --> 02:02:30,200 out and have it collected. There is 2043 02:02:30,200 --> 02:02:33,200 funding through cal recycle to assist with 2044 02:02:33,200 --> 02:02:36,200 that. In addition on wildfire piece, not 2045 02:02:36,200 --> 02:02:38,200 to jump around too much, we are talking 2046 02:02:38,200 --> 02:02:41,200 about budget just just in the last week 2047 02:02:41,200 --> 02:02:43,200 the board of forestry moved to put forward 2048 02:02:43,200 --> 02:02:46,200 a set of regulations that are the fire 2049 02:02:46,200 --> 02:02:49,200 safe regulations that came out of sb901 2050 02:02:49,200 --> 02:02:51,200 from a couple years ago. They were trying 2051 02:02:51,200 --> 02:02:55,200 to pursue it in calendar 21 but the 2052 02:02:55,200 --> 02:02:57,402 regulations were incredibly controversial 2053 02:02:58,200 --> 02:03:01,200 and so much opposition the board pulled it 2054 02:03:01,200 --> 02:03:03,200 back and recrafted them and they just put 2055 02:03:03,200 --> 02:03:09,602 them out. I want to commend r c r c, they 2056 02:03:10,200 --> 02:03:12,200 have been a great partner. The public 2057 02:03:12,200 --> 02:03:14,200 comment starts in january and only a 15 2058 02:03:14,200 --> 02:03:16,200 day public comment period. This has 2059 02:03:16,200 --> 02:03:19,200 enormous implication on your land use 2060 02:03:19,200 --> 02:03:22,200 anywhere where you interact with the wild 2061 02:03:22,200 --> 02:03:24,200 land urban interphase which you have a lot 2062 02:03:24,200 --> 02:03:27,200 of in placer county so believe your 2063 02:03:27,200 --> 02:03:29,200 planning staff is very well aware the 2064 02:03:29,200 --> 02:03:32,200 regulations are going to be going back out 2065 02:03:32,200 --> 02:03:35,200 for public comment. I feel it is really 2066 02:03:35,200 --> 02:03:37,200 incumbent on individual counties to raise 2067 02:03:37,200 --> 02:03:40,200 their concerns with the board as far as 2068 02:03:40,200 --> 02:03:42,200 the feasibility of some of the components 2069 02:03:42,200 --> 02:03:45,200 of the regulations. Certainly the 2070 02:03:45,200 --> 02:03:47,200 regulations are intended to enhance public 2071 02:03:47,200 --> 02:03:50,200 safety during a wildfire, but there are 2072 02:03:50,200 --> 02:03:52,200 some things that would be very challenging 2073 02:03:52,200 --> 02:03:54,200 I think for local governments to comply so 2074 02:03:54,200 --> 02:03:56,200 I wanted to make sure you are aware. 2075 02:03:56,200 --> 02:03:58,200 there is also a significant amount of 2076 02:03:58,200 --> 02:04:00,200 money in the existing budget for 2077 02:04:00,200 --> 02:04:03,200 transportation. There is $4.5 billion new 2078 02:04:05,200 --> 02:04:07,200 and discretionary that went to one time or 2079 02:04:07,200 --> 02:04:09,200 temporary transportation infrastructure. 2080 02:04:10,200 --> 02:04:12,200 certainly with the federal report you just 2081 02:04:12,200 --> 02:04:15,200 heard there is more money coming on the 2082 02:04:15,200 --> 02:04:18,200 federal side. I also wanted to note the 2083 02:04:18,200 --> 02:04:22,200 broadband piece as you told me a year ago 2084 02:04:22,200 --> 02:04:25,200 I get to tell you there was $7 billion in 2085 02:04:25,200 --> 02:04:29,200 the budget for broadband I would be 2086 02:04:29,200 --> 02:04:32,602 confused, but the legislature did a 2087 02:04:33,200 --> 02:04:36,200 wonderful job with the administration of 2088 02:04:36,200 --> 02:04:38,200 setting aside a large amount of fund to 2089 02:04:38,200 --> 02:04:40,200 really make a difference and huge bite at 2090 02:04:40,200 --> 02:04:43,200 the apple for broadband deployment. The 2091 02:04:43,200 --> 02:04:46,200 regulatory process how that will work is 2092 02:04:46,200 --> 02:04:50,200 playing out at the puc. Want to commend r 2093 02:04:50,200 --> 02:04:53,200 c r c making sure the rural count ies who 2094 02:04:53,200 --> 02:04:56,200 residents struggle the most with access to 2095 02:04:56,200 --> 02:04:59,200 broadband during the shelter at home 2096 02:04:59,200 --> 02:05:01,200 order, there is set asides for rural areas 2097 02:05:01,200 --> 02:05:04,200 and there are real set asides. It is not 2098 02:05:04,200 --> 02:05:06,200 just a small percentage, it is big chunk 2099 02:05:06,200 --> 02:05:09,200 of money to invest in the middle mile. 2100 02:05:09,200 --> 02:05:12,602 moving to housing and homelessness, about 2101 02:05:13,200 --> 02:05:16,602 $7.4 billion across 30 programs are in the 2102 02:05:22,200 --> 02:05:23,200 state budget and think you will see more 2103 02:05:23,200 --> 02:05:26,200 investment in 22 with those programs. Our 2104 02:05:26,200 --> 02:05:28,200 funding cycles are a little different then 2105 02:05:28,200 --> 02:05:31,200 the federal government. Frankly about 2106 02:05:34,200 --> 02:05:36,200 every week we send out an announcement on 2107 02:05:36,200 --> 02:05:39,200 a chance to comment on new regulations for 2108 02:05:39,200 --> 02:05:42,200 a grant program or announcing that a new 2109 02:05:42,200 --> 02:05:45,200 grant program is out, so it is happening 2110 02:05:45,200 --> 02:05:47,200 very quickly at hcd. They are pushing out 2111 02:05:47,200 --> 02:05:50,200 money as fast as they can and programs as 2112 02:05:50,200 --> 02:05:53,200 fast as they can to support the 2113 02:05:53,200 --> 02:05:56,200 development of housing in california. 2114 02:05:56,200 --> 02:05:58,200 been trying to send out fast as they come 2115 02:05:58,200 --> 02:06:03,402 in. Finally, before I hand it to paul the 2116 02:06:04,200 --> 02:06:07,200 legislature has been working to transition 2117 02:06:07,200 --> 02:06:11,200 away from fines and fees are collected 2118 02:06:11,200 --> 02:06:14,602 from folks interacting with the criminal 2119 02:06:15,200 --> 02:06:18,602 system. However the program is built 2120 02:06:19,200 --> 02:06:23,200 based on fines and fees and there is a buy 2121 02:06:23,200 --> 02:06:25,200 out of fines and fees included in the 2122 02:06:25,200 --> 02:06:28,200 enact 21-22 budget. It is about $125 2123 02:06:28,200 --> 02:06:31,200 million and then going forward it will be 2124 02:06:31,200 --> 02:06:34,200 hundred million. Csac is working with the 2125 02:06:34,200 --> 02:06:36,200 administration on developing how the funds 2126 02:06:36,200 --> 02:06:40,802 will flow and I would-we just pay close 2127 02:06:41,200 --> 02:06:43,200 attention to how it effects your budget. 2128 02:06:43,200 --> 02:06:45,200 I'm sure your budget folks are watching 2129 02:06:45,200 --> 02:06:47,200 directly as well, but that is a big piece 2130 02:06:47,200 --> 02:06:50,200 and I think those that participate through 2131 02:06:50,200 --> 02:06:53,200 the csac policy committee will hear about 2132 02:06:53,200 --> 02:06:54,200 the development of the applications to 2133 02:06:54,200 --> 02:06:57,200 make sure everybody got what was needed to 2134 02:06:57,200 --> 02:07:00,200 not hold you in harms way as the 2135 02:07:00,200 --> 02:07:02,200 legislature moved away from the fines and 2136 02:07:02,200 --> 02:07:05,200 fees for the sort of lower level 2137 02:07:05,200 --> 02:07:08,200 infractions. With that, I'll hand it over 2138 02:07:08,200 --> 02:07:09,200 to paul. 2139 02:07:09,200 --> 02:07:12,602 >> thanks. Paul, are you there?

I know there was 2155 02:07:58,200 --> 02:08:01,602 comments earlier today on that. Similarly 2156 02:08:02,200 --> 02:08:05,200 just to make sure for the public's 2157 02:08:05,200 --> 02:08:08,200 benefit, we are in a state of emergency 2158 02:08:08,200 --> 02:08:11,200 per the governor through march 15. 2159 02:08:11,200 --> 02:08:14,200 hopefully that will be the end. But both 2160 02:08:14,200 --> 02:08:18,200 of those are in effect as of-one currently 2161 02:08:18,200 --> 02:08:22,202 and one as of tomorrow. So, the 2162 02:08:23,200 --> 02:08:25,200 legislature has a couple more pieces of 2163 02:08:25,200 --> 02:08:28,602 business before they shut down in 2164 02:08:29,200 --> 02:08:31,200 december. Most notably for a lot of 2165 02:08:31,200 --> 02:08:32,200 counties will be informational hearing 2166 02:08:32,200 --> 02:08:35,602 tomorrow on possibly reform of the 2167 02:08:37,200 --> 02:08:41,200 [inaudible comments] lps act as it is more 2168 02:08:41,200 --> 02:08:44,200 commonly referred to. That has to do with 2169 02:08:44,200 --> 02:08:47,200 the circumstances under which folks who 2170 02:08:47,200 --> 02:08:51,200 are incapable of taking care of themselves 2171 02:08:51,200 --> 02:08:55,200 can be taken in and detained for at least 2172 02:08:55,200 --> 02:08:58,200 72 hours as the board is aware. We do 2173 02:08:58,200 --> 02:09:01,200 think there may be additional reform in 2174 02:09:01,200 --> 02:09:04,200 the area in 2022 and there is one bill to 2175 02:09:04,200 --> 02:09:07,602 watch, senate bill 516 by senator eagleman 2176 02:09:08,200 --> 02:09:10,200 who will be up on the dais tomorrow with 2177 02:09:10,200 --> 02:09:14,200 the chairs of the assembly held judiciary 2178 02:09:14,200 --> 02:09:18,200 committee as they discuss reform so we are 2179 02:09:18,200 --> 02:09:20,200 making the counties very aware of those 2180 02:09:20,200 --> 02:09:22,200 activities. We'll continue to track that 2181 02:09:22,200 --> 02:09:25,200 for you. They will come back, take a 2182 02:09:25,200 --> 02:09:28,200 break and come back monday january 3. 2183 02:09:28,200 --> 02:09:30,200 especially for the public benefit I want 2184 02:09:30,200 --> 02:09:34,200 to make sure folks know the capital 2185 02:09:34,200 --> 02:09:37,200 essentially won't be open not because of 2186 02:09:37,200 --> 02:09:40,200 covid but because it is being redone, 2187 02:09:40,200 --> 02:09:43,200 remade. There is now a 10 story so called 2188 02:09:43,200 --> 02:09:46,200 swing space office space into which the 2189 02:09:46,200 --> 02:09:49,602 legislature is moving as I speak. 2190 02:09:50,200 --> 02:09:52,200 hearings will be conducted there, so they 2191 02:09:52,200 --> 02:09:57,200 will be open we hope, coming out of covid 2192 02:09:57,200 --> 02:09:59,200 but on the other hand if you are used to 2193 02:09:59,200 --> 02:10:01,200 coming to the capital you will not go 2194 02:10:01,200 --> 02:10:02,200 there, you will go to a different building 2195 02:10:02,200 --> 02:10:06,802 across the street and will be very very 2196 02:10:07,200 --> 02:10:08,200 different then usual. You have to be 2197 02:10:08,200 --> 02:10:11,200 badged up from the first floor. The 2198 02:10:11,200 --> 02:10:14,602 offices are smaller, only legislatures and 2199 02:10:15,200 --> 02:10:17,200 chief of staff have doors, and a lot of 2200 02:10:17,200 --> 02:10:21,200 conversations are going to occur out in 2201 02:10:21,200 --> 02:10:24,200 the open. Just when you think advocacy 2202 02:10:24,200 --> 02:10:28,200 can't get stranger in california, in fact 2203 02:10:28,200 --> 02:10:30,200 it probably will for the next couple 2204 02:10:30,200 --> 02:10:33,200 years, because of the capital rebuild. 2205 02:10:33,200 --> 02:10:35,200 the next budget and think karen mentioned 2206 02:10:35,200 --> 02:10:39,802 will be out january 10. One thing we want 2207 02:10:40,200 --> 02:10:42,200 to make sure the board staff are aware of 2208 02:10:42,200 --> 02:10:44,200 and the public, we do think the governor 2209 02:10:44,200 --> 02:10:46,200 is going to propose to do more with 2210 02:10:46,200 --> 02:10:49,200 respect to homelessness. We think the 2211 02:10:49,200 --> 02:10:51,200 emphasis going into 22, 23 will be on 2212 02:10:51,200 --> 02:10:54,602 mental health and substance abuse and 2213 02:10:55,200 --> 02:10:58,200 trying to bolster programs in those 2214 02:10:58,200 --> 02:11:01,602 regards. We are hopeful governor newsom 2215 02:11:03,200 --> 02:11:05,200 will propose funding to the counties for 2216 02:11:05,200 --> 02:11:09,202 those purpose. This is a very educated 2217 02:11:10,200 --> 02:11:11,200 guess and we know where some of the 2218 02:11:11,200 --> 02:11:14,602 governor staff have been making visits 2219 02:11:16,200 --> 02:11:19,200 around the state the last couple months. 2220 02:11:19,200 --> 02:11:23,202 folks may want to google hummingbird sf. 2221 02:11:25,200 --> 02:11:28,200 humming bird san francisco a program 2222 02:11:28,200 --> 02:11:30,200 already in effect with a relatively high 2223 02:11:30,200 --> 02:11:32,200 success rate and we know for a fact the 2224 02:11:32,200 --> 02:11:35,200 governor's staff is enamored of that so we 2225 02:11:35,200 --> 02:11:38,200 may see in the january temp proposal very 2226 02:11:38,200 --> 02:11:40,402 specifically encouragement if not 2227 02:11:41,200 --> 02:11:44,200 additional funding to the counties to 2228 02:11:44,200 --> 02:11:46,200 develop and sustain programming along 2229 02:11:46,200 --> 02:11:49,602 those lines of hummingbird san francisco. 2230 02:11:51,200 --> 02:11:54,200 january the second year of the two year 2231 02:11:54,200 --> 02:11:56,200 session because we do have two year 2232 02:11:56,200 --> 02:11:59,200 sessions in california. January is the in 2233 02:11:59,200 --> 02:12:00,200 second year are different. Bills 2234 02:12:00,200 --> 02:12:04,802 introduced last year can and will move the 2235 02:12:05,200 --> 02:12:08,200 instance the legislature comes back and it 2236 02:12:08,200 --> 02:12:12,200 is very important to underscore that to 2237 02:12:12,200 --> 02:12:15,200 you and the public that a bill you might 2238 02:12:15,200 --> 02:12:19,200 have thought was on ice or had died in 2239 02:12:19,200 --> 02:12:22,602 2021 by virtual of two procedural actions 2240 02:12:24,200 --> 02:12:27,200 in january can be heard on the floor. 2241 02:12:27,200 --> 02:12:30,200 taken off the enacted file and heard on 2242 02:12:30,200 --> 02:12:32,200 the floor and some instances sent 2243 02:12:32,200 --> 02:12:33,200 immediately to the governor. That is very 2244 02:12:33,200 --> 02:12:36,200 very different then what can occur in the 2245 02:12:36,200 --> 02:12:39,200 first year of a 2 year cycle and we want 2246 02:12:39,200 --> 02:12:41,200 to make sure everyone is aware of that. 2247 02:12:41,200 --> 02:12:43,200 we think because of the state surplus 2248 02:12:43,200 --> 02:12:45,200 estimated currently by the legislative 2249 02:12:45,200 --> 02:12:49,200 analyst at $31 billion but buried in the 2250 02:12:49,200 --> 02:12:52,200 same report the analyst says it can go as 2251 02:12:52,200 --> 02:12:55,200 high as $60 billion. We think the 2252 02:12:55,200 --> 02:12:58,200 legislature is going to start budget 2253 02:12:58,200 --> 02:12:59,200 subcommittee hearing sooner then they 2254 02:12:59,200 --> 02:13:02,200 typically would. We are hearing february. 2255 02:13:02,200 --> 02:13:05,200 we actually would not be surprised if 2256 02:13:05,200 --> 02:13:07,200 there is budget action taken by the 2257 02:13:07,200 --> 02:13:09,200 legislature in january. Again,ing I think 2258 02:13:09,200 --> 02:13:12,200 that is just a function of the money and 2259 02:13:12,200 --> 02:13:13,200 also the fact they have legislative 2260 02:13:13,200 --> 02:13:17,200 vehicles again since we are in second year 2261 02:13:17,200 --> 02:13:19,200 of the two year cycle bills are in the 2262 02:13:19,200 --> 02:13:22,200 second house and can be quickly amended 2263 02:13:22,200 --> 02:13:24,200 and sent to the governor just like that so 2264 02:13:24,200 --> 02:13:27,200 we may see state budgeting in january. 2265 02:13:27,200 --> 02:13:30,200 possibly drought relating and fire related 2266 02:13:30,200 --> 02:13:33,200 would be the two at the top sof of the 2267 02:13:33,200 --> 02:13:36,602 list joel mentioned redistricting. In two 2268 02:13:38,200 --> 02:13:40,402 minutes the california redistricting 2269 02:13:43,200 --> 02:13:44,200 commission will begin the hearing today. 2270 02:13:44,200 --> 02:13:47,200 he was correct saying they are probably 2271 02:13:47,200 --> 02:13:49,200 going to wrap up the work very very 2272 02:13:49,200 --> 02:13:51,200 quickly. I listened to most of the 2273 02:13:51,200 --> 02:13:52,200 hearing last night. For those that are 2274 02:13:52,200 --> 02:13:56,200 not aware there is a back and forth with 2275 02:13:56,200 --> 02:13:59,200 respect to the mountain counties and where 2276 02:13:59,200 --> 02:14:01,200 they get population for certain 2277 02:14:01,200 --> 02:14:03,200 congressional seat and the decision before 2278 02:14:03,200 --> 02:14:05,200 the commission is really a lot of 2279 02:14:05,200 --> 02:14:09,802 roseville or a lot of modesto. We don't 2280 02:14:10,200 --> 02:14:11,200 know where they will land. I done know 2281 02:14:11,200 --> 02:14:14,200 where they will land after listening to 7 2282 02:14:14,200 --> 02:14:16,200 hours of testimony yesterday, but we 2283 02:14:16,200 --> 02:14:20,202 probably will know that very very shortly 2284 02:14:22,200 --> 02:14:24,200 here. Joel mentioned initiatives and glad 2285 02:14:24,200 --> 02:14:27,300 he did. Do want to underscore one 2286 02:14:27,300 --> 02:14:30,300 initiative that legalize sports wager in 2287 02:14:30,300 --> 02:14:31,300 california is expected to produce if it 2288 02:14:31,300 --> 02:14:34,300 passes hundreds of million dollars of 2289 02:14:34,300 --> 02:14:37,300 dollars annually for the counties to 2290 02:14:37,300 --> 02:14:39,300 combat mental health and substance abuse 2291 02:14:39,300 --> 02:14:42,603 issues in the homeless population. That's 2292 02:14:44,300 --> 02:14:46,300 not only something that could be dealt 2293 02:14:46,300 --> 02:14:50,203 with the governor and legislature, it is 2294 02:14:51,300 --> 02:14:53,300 something that will be pushed on the 2295 02:14:53,300 --> 02:14:55,300 statewide ballot and have competing 2296 02:14:55,300 --> 02:14:58,300 measures as mentioned. On redistricting 2297 02:14:59,300 --> 02:15:03,300 and going back to the chaos possibly of 2298 02:15:03,300 --> 02:15:05,300 2022, we are not just going have a new 2299 02:15:05,300 --> 02:15:07,300 building within which the legislature will 2300 02:15:07,300 --> 02:15:11,300 work, we are losing legislators at a rate 2301 02:15:11,300 --> 02:15:13,300 of about one a week. They are not just 2302 02:15:13,300 --> 02:15:16,300 noticing they won't run for reelection. 2303 02:15:16,300 --> 02:15:19,300 some are resigning and taking other jobs. 2304 02:15:19,300 --> 02:15:22,300 I are think by the end of this week karen 2305 02:15:22,300 --> 02:15:25,300 can correct me, there may be as many as 5 2306 02:15:25,300 --> 02:15:27,300 or 6 vacancies in the assembly. That will 2307 02:15:27,300 --> 02:15:30,300 make things pretty interesting as the year 2308 02:15:30,300 --> 02:15:32,300 unfolds. We also have the circumstance 2309 02:15:32,300 --> 02:15:35,300 where members of the legislature depending 2310 02:15:35,300 --> 02:15:39,203 on where the redistricting decide to draw 2311 02:15:40,300 --> 02:15:43,300 the lines members of the legislature 2312 02:15:43,300 --> 02:15:46,300 living in the same district with one 2313 02:15:46,300 --> 02:15:49,300 another.

The platform is proved 2347 02:17:29,300 --> 02:17:32,300 near the beginning of each year and a 2348 02:17:32,300 --> 02:17:35,300 culmination of hard work by county staff 2349 02:17:35,300 --> 02:17:37,300 department heads and contracted lobbyist. 2350 02:17:37,300 --> 02:17:39,300 the platform is intended to be a living 2351 02:17:39,300 --> 02:17:43,300 document and not always possible for staff 2352 02:17:43,300 --> 02:17:45,300 and others to anticipate any additional 2353 02:17:45,300 --> 02:17:48,300 legislative regulatory or budget issues 2354 02:17:49,300 --> 02:17:52,300 that may arise. The board may review this 2355 02:17:52,300 --> 02:17:53,300 document on a periodic basis modify the 2356 02:17:53,300 --> 02:17:56,603 document however they please. It also 2357 02:17:57,300 --> 02:17:59,300 provides direction to myself county staff 2358 02:17:59,300 --> 02:18:02,300 county executive office departments and 2359 02:18:03,300 --> 02:18:05,300 legislative advocates on positions that 2360 02:18:05,300 --> 02:18:08,300 the board may take public support 2361 02:18:08,300 --> 02:18:11,300 positions opposition positions and key 2362 02:18:11,300 --> 02:18:14,300 policy initiatives that county staff works 2363 02:18:14,300 --> 02:18:17,300 on. Among some the bigger changes in this 2364 02:18:17,300 --> 02:18:20,603 year's platform is detailed version to 2365 02:18:21,300 --> 02:18:23,300 forest management and wildfire risk 2366 02:18:23,300 --> 02:18:26,300 reduction issues.

And then one major 2369 02:18:31,300 --> 02:18:34,300 focus this year on the staff side would be 2370 02:18:34,300 --> 02:18:37,300 really focusing on the regulatory rule 2371 02:18:37,300 --> 02:18:39,300 making process at the state level. It is 2372 02:18:39,300 --> 02:18:42,300 not a convenient process. On the federal 2373 02:18:42,300 --> 02:18:44,300 level they do have the federal register 2374 02:18:44,300 --> 02:18:46,300 which is a one stop shop on the state side 2375 02:18:46,300 --> 02:18:48,300 they don't have that. They have a small 2376 02:18:48,300 --> 02:18:51,300 little office of administrative law which 2377 02:18:51,300 --> 02:18:53,300 reviews everything after the fact. It is 2378 02:18:53,300 --> 02:18:55,300 a big priority on the staff side to really 2379 02:18:55,300 --> 02:18:58,300 keep your board apprised of any rules and 2380 02:18:58,300 --> 02:19:01,300 regulations that may arise throughout the 2381 02:19:01,300 --> 02:19:04,300 year through state agencies. Lastly, 2382 02:19:06,300 --> 02:19:09,300 staff will continue to provide the board 2383 02:19:09,300 --> 02:19:11,300 formal positions the county takes on 2384 02:19:11,300 --> 02:19:14,300 legislation through periodic updates and 2385 02:19:16,300 --> 02:19:18,300 board reports and information and continue 2386 02:19:18,300 --> 02:19:21,300 to update the website for public knowledge 2387 02:19:21,300 --> 02:19:23,300 for formal positions the board may take. 2388 02:19:23,300 --> 02:19:26,300 with that, I'm happy to take questions or 2389 02:19:26,300 --> 02:19:28,300 have discussion on the platform. 2390 02:19:28,300 --> 02:19:31,300 >> thanks joel and sorry I jumped ahead. 2391 02:19:31,300 --> 02:19:32,300 bonnie. 2392 02:19:32,300 --> 02:19:33,300 >> thank you joel and thank you for the 2393 02:19:33,300 --> 02:19:37,300 in-depth briefing you gave probably all of 2394 02:19:37,300 --> 02:19:41,300 us this past week.

There is nothing in this homekey 2964 02:47:01,300 --> 02:47:04,300 application that would prevent moving 2965 02:47:05,300 --> 02:47:09,300 forward on the campus for hope is a idea I 2966 02:47:09,300 --> 02:47:12,300 know pretty well, but other potential 2967 02:47:12,300 --> 02:47:14,300 projects as well. Amy, anything else you 2968 02:47:14,300 --> 02:47:15,300 like to say about that? 2969 02:47:15,300 --> 02:47:18,300 >> just two.

With this update we propose to 3280 03:02:26,100 --> 03:02:28,100 shift the focus of the fee district from 3281 03:02:28,100 --> 03:02:31,100 level of service to reduction of vehicle 3282 03:02:31,100 --> 03:02:34,100 miles traveled. This slide shows a sample 3283 03:02:34,100 --> 03:02:36,100 of the project list, the projects span 3284 03:02:36,100 --> 03:02:39,100 these 4 major categories including bike 3285 03:02:39,100 --> 03:02:41,401 and pedestrian infrastructure, transit 3286 03:02:42,100 --> 03:02:45,100 expansion, parking management and fuel 3287 03:02:46,100 --> 03:02:48,100 level of service or safety projects. 3288 03:02:48,100 --> 03:02:51,100 because we shift the focus toward vmt we 3289 03:02:51,100 --> 03:02:54,601 move away from capital intensive projects 3290 03:02:57,100 --> 03:02:59,100 towards a capital component and operating 3291 03:02:59,100 --> 03:03:01,100 cost like transit expansion. The fee 3292 03:03:01,100 --> 03:03:04,100 program can only pay for the capital 3293 03:03:04,100 --> 03:03:06,100 component of the projects and because of 3294 03:03:06,100 --> 03:03:08,100 that we propose a funding strategy that 3295 03:03:08,100 --> 03:03:10,100 includes both the fee program update as 3296 03:03:10,100 --> 03:03:13,100 well as updates to future zones of benefit 3297 03:03:13,100 --> 03:03:16,100 so we have a ongoing local funding source 3298 03:03:16,100 --> 03:03:17,100 that can provide a portion of our 3299 03:03:17,100 --> 03:03:20,100 operating costs as well. Next slide, 3300 03:03:20,100 --> 03:03:24,100 please. So, as part of the update we 3301 03:03:24,100 --> 03:03:27,100 estimated the vmt reduction for projects 3302 03:03:27,100 --> 03:03:30,100 on the cip list as well as other vmt 3303 03:03:30,100 --> 03:03:34,100 reducing programs. In total vmt can be 3304 03:03:34,100 --> 03:03:37,100 reduced by about $4.7 million annually. 3305 03:03:37,100 --> 03:03:39,100 the majority of the reduction as you see 3306 03:03:39,100 --> 03:03:41,100 on the slide comes from transit expansion 3307 03:03:41,100 --> 03:03:44,100 projects. All most 20 percent come from 3308 03:03:44,100 --> 03:03:47,601 parking management and travel demand with 3309 03:03:48,100 --> 03:03:50,100 remaining 7 percent coming from bicycle 3310 03:03:50,100 --> 03:03:52,401 and pedestrian infrastructure. Next 3311 03:03:53,100 --> 03:03:56,601 slide, please. So, with this proposed 3312 03:03:57,100 --> 03:03:59,100 update the fee amount would be reduced. 3313 03:03:59,100 --> 03:04:03,201 the current fee is $5440 per dwelling unit 3314 03:04:04,100 --> 03:04:06,100 equivalent and with this update the fee 3315 03:04:06,100 --> 03:04:09,100 would be $3528 per dwelling unit 3316 03:04:09,100 --> 03:04:12,100 equivalent. While the project list is 3317 03:04:12,100 --> 03:04:14,100 expanding the cost of attributing to new 3318 03:04:14,100 --> 03:04:16,100 development is decreasing and that is due 3319 03:04:16,100 --> 03:04:19,100 in part to the shift in methodology to 3320 03:04:19,100 --> 03:04:22,100 vmt. New development is not fully 3321 03:04:22,100 --> 03:04:24,100 responsible for reducing our vmt and 3322 03:04:24,100 --> 03:04:28,100 therefore only a portion of the costs are 3323 03:04:28,100 --> 03:04:29,100 attributable to the new development 3324 03:04:29,100 --> 03:04:31,100 through the fee program. Other components 3325 03:04:31,100 --> 03:04:34,100 of this update include refinement to the 3326 03:04:34,100 --> 03:04:36,100 dwelling unit equivalent factors with the 3327 03:04:36,100 --> 03:04:39,100 proposed update the amount of the fee 3328 03:04:39,100 --> 03:04:42,100 would vary by land use type. We are also 3329 03:04:42,100 --> 03:04:45,601 proposing a fee for deed restricted 3330 03:04:46,100 --> 03:04:48,100 affordable housing in half. Proposing to 3331 03:04:48,100 --> 03:04:50,100 rename the fee district from the tahoe 3332 03:04:50,100 --> 03:04:53,100 traffic fee to the tahoe transportation 3333 03:04:53,100 --> 03:04:55,100 fee to better reflect the variety of 3334 03:04:55,100 --> 03:04:57,100 projects on the list. And as I mentioned 3335 03:04:57,100 --> 03:05:00,100 earlier the project list has a both 3336 03:05:00,100 --> 03:05:02,100 capital cost which can be partially funded 3337 03:05:02,100 --> 03:05:04,100 through the fee program and those ongoing 3338 03:05:04,100 --> 03:05:07,100 operational expenses which we propose-why 3339 03:05:08,100 --> 03:05:12,100 we are proposing of the joan zone of 3340 03:05:12,100 --> 03:05:14,100 benefit project list which I'll go over in 3341 03:05:14,100 --> 03:05:18,100 a second. Next slide, please. So, this 3342 03:05:18,100 --> 03:05:21,100 slide illustrates the fee amount for 3343 03:05:21,100 --> 03:05:23,100 common land use types. As mentioned 3344 03:05:23,100 --> 03:05:25,100 earlier the updates to the dwelling unit 3345 03:05:25,100 --> 03:05:27,100 equivalent factor result in varying 3346 03:05:27,100 --> 03:05:29,100 changes in the fee by land use type which 3347 03:05:29,100 --> 03:05:33,100 is illustrated on this slide. We looked 3348 03:05:33,100 --> 03:05:35,100 at about 38 different land use types and 3349 03:05:35,100 --> 03:05:38,100 there is one land use that would see a 3350 03:05:38,100 --> 03:05:40,100 slight increase in the fee with this 3351 03:05:40,100 --> 03:05:43,100 proposal and that is the gas station with 3352 03:05:43,100 --> 03:05:45,100 convenience market. That land use would 3353 03:05:45,100 --> 03:05:48,601 see increase by about $235 per fueling 3354 03:05:49,100 --> 03:05:52,100 position under this update. Next slide, 3355 03:05:52,100 --> 03:05:56,801 please. So, of zone of benefit is another 3356 03:05:57,100 --> 03:06:00,100 common funding mechanism and this could be 3357 03:06:00,100 --> 03:06:03,601 used to fund ongoing expenses associated 3358 03:06:04,100 --> 03:06:07,100 with a development. We are talking 3359 03:06:07,100 --> 03:06:09,100 transit service expansion. With the zone 3360 03:06:09,100 --> 03:06:11,100 of benefit we can establish assessment the 3361 03:06:11,100 --> 03:06:13,100 property owner would pay annually with 3362 03:06:13,100 --> 03:06:15,100 their taxes. With their property taxes. 3363 03:06:15,100 --> 03:06:18,100 we do have a handful of existing zones of 3364 03:06:18,100 --> 03:06:20,100 benefit in this area, those would not be 3365 03:06:20,100 --> 03:06:23,100 subject to the update. We are talking 3366 03:06:23,100 --> 03:06:26,100 proposing this for new growth only. The 3367 03:06:26,100 --> 03:06:29,100 transit zones of benefit that have been 3368 03:06:29,100 --> 03:06:32,100 established have a fee that range from $50 3369 03:06:32,100 --> 03:06:36,100 to $70 per developing unit per year but 3370 03:06:36,100 --> 03:06:39,100 the proposed update we look at expansion 3371 03:06:39,100 --> 03:06:41,100 of the project list and future growth 3372 03:06:41,100 --> 03:06:44,601 would have assessment between $150-250 per 3373 03:06:48,100 --> 03:06:50,100 year. Those are preliminary estimates and 3374 03:06:50,100 --> 03:06:52,100 the amount depends how much other funding 3375 03:06:52,100 --> 03:06:54,100 is dedicated to transit. The funds would 3376 03:06:54,100 --> 03:06:57,100 be used for transit expansion meaning 3377 03:06:57,100 --> 03:06:59,100 increasing the frequency of the transit 3378 03:06:59,100 --> 03:07:02,100 service, expanding the hours or days of 3379 03:07:02,100 --> 03:07:04,100 operation and implementing new transit 3380 03:07:04,100 --> 03:07:06,100 lines. We can also provide a permanent 3381 03:07:06,100 --> 03:07:08,100 funding source for current pilot programs 3382 03:07:08,100 --> 03:07:12,801 like our fare free tart service and tart 3383 03:07:13,100 --> 03:07:15,100 connect micro transit service. With 3384 03:07:15,100 --> 03:07:17,100 adoption of the fee program today we are 3385 03:07:17,100 --> 03:07:20,100 also seeking direction to expand the 3386 03:07:20,100 --> 03:07:23,100 project list for future development to 3387 03:07:23,100 --> 03:07:26,100 fund these ongoing operational components. 3388 03:07:26,100 --> 03:07:30,201 next slide, please. So we started this 3389 03:07:31,100 --> 03:07:34,100 program update about a year ago and over 3390 03:07:34,100 --> 03:07:36,100 the last month we have been working on 3391 03:07:36,100 --> 03:07:38,100 outreach with our stakeholder group as 3392 03:07:38,100 --> 03:07:41,100 well as the public and as well as 3393 03:07:41,100 --> 03:07:44,601 finalizing our nexus study. If the 3394 03:07:45,100 --> 03:07:48,100 program is adopted today it will go into 3395 03:07:48,100 --> 03:07:51,100 effect 60 days from now feb 14 and as 3396 03:07:51,100 --> 03:07:54,100 supervisor gustafson mentioned we are 3397 03:07:54,100 --> 03:07:58,100 working closely with the t r pa to the 3398 03:07:58,100 --> 03:08:00,100 mobility mitigation program. Next slide, 3399 03:08:00,100 --> 03:08:03,100 please. So, this is the action requested 3400 03:08:03,100 --> 03:08:06,100 today. I can read it if you like but in 3401 03:08:06,100 --> 03:08:09,100 essence we are proposing an adoption of 3402 03:08:09,100 --> 03:08:12,100 the capital improvement program the tahoe 3403 03:08:12,100 --> 03:08:14,100 transportation fee district, the nexus 3404 03:08:14,100 --> 03:08:17,100 study and as well as direction to staff 3405 03:08:17,100 --> 03:08:20,100 for expanding our zone of benefit project 3406 03:08:20,100 --> 03:08:22,401 list for future growth. 3407 03:08:25,100 --> 03:08:28,601 >> thank you. Any questions from board 3408 03:08:29,100 --> 03:08:31,100 members at the time? Cindy. 3409 03:08:31,100 --> 03:08:34,100 >> first off thanks to staff.

I'm trying to get- 3432 03:09:39,100 --> 03:09:41,100 >> katie is probably better explaining it 3433 03:09:41,100 --> 03:09:45,100 but the fees within a tahoe basin for 3434 03:09:45,100 --> 03:09:47,100 mobility and vmt reduction within the 3435 03:09:47,100 --> 03:09:51,100 basin under t r pa are higher then what 3436 03:09:51,100 --> 03:09:55,100 placer county is looking at outside of the 3437 03:09:55,100 --> 03:09:58,100 basin that would have been proposed had 3438 03:09:58,100 --> 03:10:01,100 there not been a bistate agency overseeing 3439 03:10:01,100 --> 03:10:02,100 the basin. 3440 03:10:02,100 --> 03:10:04,100 >> got it. 3441 03:10:04,100 --> 03:10:08,201 >> so what I been arguing throughout and 3442 03:10:09,100 --> 03:10:12,100 why I seem crazy because I go to way too 3443 03:10:12,100 --> 03:10:15,100 many meetings on transportation, I want to 3444 03:10:15,100 --> 03:10:18,100 get credit as placer county from our 3445 03:10:18,100 --> 03:10:21,100 businesses generating money and reinvest 3446 03:10:21,100 --> 03:10:23,100 ing in micro mass transit, transportation 3447 03:10:23,100 --> 03:10:27,100 solutions with tot and t bid money I want 3448 03:10:27,100 --> 03:10:30,100 to make sure our businesses or new growth 3449 03:10:30,100 --> 03:10:35,100 we can offset some of the higher fees they 3450 03:10:35,100 --> 03:10:37,100 want to charge because we will go back not 3451 03:10:37,100 --> 03:10:40,100 seeing new development redevelopment. The 3452 03:10:41,100 --> 03:10:43,100 single family homes are probably less a 3453 03:10:43,100 --> 03:10:45,401 concern because anybody building 3454 03:10:46,100 --> 03:10:49,100 affordable housing gets a waver, reduced 3455 03:10:49,100 --> 03:10:52,100 fee, but for the mega mansions, they will 3456 03:10:52,100 --> 03:10:55,100 pay a pretty significant fee for those. 3457 03:10:55,100 --> 03:10:59,100 so, this is-staff brought it to me 3458 03:10:59,100 --> 03:11:01,100 attention. We have been trying to work 3459 03:11:01,100 --> 03:11:03,100 through it. We are continuing our efforts 3460 03:11:03,100 --> 03:11:06,100 with t r pa to credit placer county 3461 03:11:06,100 --> 03:11:08,100 because we are the only jurisdiction in 3462 03:11:08,100 --> 03:11:10,401 the basin supplementing transportation 3463 03:11:11,100 --> 03:11:14,100 services at this level, and because of 3464 03:11:14,100 --> 03:11:18,100 that our businesses in our town centers 3465 03:11:18,100 --> 03:11:20,100 need to get credit for that. 3466 03:11:20,100 --> 03:11:24,801 >> can I clarify. In addition to the fee 3467 03:11:25,100 --> 03:11:27,100 charged we are reducing, there is also 3468 03:11:27,100 --> 03:11:31,100 going to be a t r pa fee which is even 3469 03:11:31,100 --> 03:11:35,100 higher so this is helpful to a certain 3470 03:11:35,100 --> 03:11:37,100 extent because it reduces the fee on our 3471 03:11:37,100 --> 03:11:40,100 end, and are then we are the only 3472 03:11:40,100 --> 03:11:42,100 jurisdiction that has a fee like this. 3473 03:11:42,100 --> 03:11:45,100 >> that is higher actually--yes. Not 3474 03:11:48,100 --> 03:11:50,100 only-his is for new development but we are 3475 03:11:50,100 --> 03:11:52,100 already supplementing transportation out 3476 03:11:52,100 --> 03:11:56,100 of our general fund to the tune of several 3477 03:11:56,100 --> 03:11:59,601 millions a year in transit operations 3478 03:12:02,100 --> 03:12:03,100 including what we supported with micro 3479 03:12:03,100 --> 03:12:06,100 mass transit so we have a complicated 3480 03:12:06,100 --> 03:12:09,100 agreement to work out with trpa and I 3481 03:12:09,100 --> 03:12:11,100 appreciate your support working with them. 3482 03:12:11,100 --> 03:12:13,100 they assured me there are ways to credit 3483 03:12:13,100 --> 03:12:16,100 our business community with the tbid and I 3484 03:12:16,100 --> 03:12:18,100 was going to also ask our staff a question 3485 03:12:18,100 --> 03:12:22,100 that on the zones of benefit and in our 3486 03:12:22,100 --> 03:12:25,100 discussions there can we hold until we see 3487 03:12:25,100 --> 03:12:28,100 what is going to happen in agreement with 3488 03:12:28,100 --> 03:12:31,100 the t r pa because the tbid to me is what 3489 03:12:31,100 --> 03:12:34,100 we campaigned for and supported in order 3490 03:12:34,100 --> 03:12:36,100 to supplement our transportation funding 3491 03:12:36,100 --> 03:12:40,100 to turn around ask those people to pay a 3492 03:12:40,100 --> 03:12:43,100 zone of benefit charge, I would hope the 3493 03:12:43,100 --> 03:12:46,100 county we can see the wisdom of the 3494 03:12:46,100 --> 03:12:49,601 collective good on a tbid versus 3495 03:12:50,100 --> 03:12:53,601 individual zones of benefit for small 3496 03:12:55,100 --> 03:12:56,100 redevelopment project. There is a 3497 03:12:56,100 --> 03:13:00,100 question among my education be it very 3498 03:13:00,100 --> 03:13:03,100 weak how to explain the t r pa element of 3499 03:13:03,100 --> 03:13:04,100 this. 3500 03:13:04,100 --> 03:13:07,100 >> so, I think the first-there was several 3501 03:13:07,100 --> 03:13:09,100 questions. I think the first question is 3502 03:13:09,100 --> 03:13:13,201 can we-your board has great flexibility on 3503 03:13:14,100 --> 03:13:17,100 how we do our program both the zone of 3504 03:13:17,100 --> 03:13:19,100 benefit as well as the fee program. It 3505 03:13:19,100 --> 03:13:22,100 can be changed at any time. We are 3506 03:13:22,100 --> 03:13:25,100 convinced and I think absolutely necessary 3507 03:13:25,100 --> 03:13:28,100 that as we understand trpa program no one 3508 03:13:28,100 --> 03:13:31,100 can be first off double charged. We have 3509 03:13:31,100 --> 03:13:34,601 ultimate flexibility but it cannot double 3510 03:13:35,100 --> 03:13:37,100 charge anybody for any sort of fee. So, 3511 03:13:37,100 --> 03:13:40,100 as we understand t r pa program we'll make 3512 03:13:40,100 --> 03:13:42,100 adjustments there. We will have to come 3513 03:13:42,100 --> 03:13:44,100 back to the board. As far as the zone of 3514 03:13:44,100 --> 03:13:48,100 benefit goes, the action today really sets 3515 03:13:48,100 --> 03:13:51,100 up a policy framework saying as people or 3516 03:13:51,100 --> 03:13:53,100 new development comes onboard they also 3517 03:13:53,100 --> 03:13:56,601 participate in the ongoing operation and 3518 03:13:57,100 --> 03:14:00,601 increment of it. Every project is 3519 03:14:02,100 --> 03:14:05,100 evaluated on its merits so there may be 3520 03:14:05,100 --> 03:14:08,100 reasons not charging individual projects 3521 03:14:08,100 --> 03:14:12,100 and may take out a whole class of your 3522 03:14:12,100 --> 03:14:14,100 project. That is up to your board and at 3523 03:14:14,100 --> 03:14:15,100 the appropriate time can have the 3524 03:14:15,100 --> 03:14:16,100 discussion. 3525 03:14:16,100 --> 03:14:18,100 >> on a statewide basis what we have done 3526 03:14:18,100 --> 03:14:22,100 in north lake tahoe and similar to mammoth 3527 03:14:22,100 --> 03:14:24,100 with a tbid that effects so many types of 3528 03:14:24,100 --> 03:14:27,100 businesses and supplements what we would 3529 03:14:27,100 --> 03:14:30,100 see in a sales tax initiative or just a 3530 03:14:30,100 --> 03:14:34,100 tot, is incredible resource and we need to 3531 03:14:34,100 --> 03:14:38,801 be thoughtful in seeing a success for the 3532 03:14:39,100 --> 03:14:41,100 businesses to keep that assessment going, 3533 03:14:41,100 --> 03:14:45,100 because that as long as we are working on 3534 03:14:45,100 --> 03:14:47,100 transportation solutions I think we want 3535 03:14:47,100 --> 03:14:50,100 to encourage that because it goes much 3536 03:14:50,100 --> 03:14:52,100 further then we can go as a county on the 3537 03:14:52,100 --> 03:14:54,100 revenues. We need the businesses to 3538 03:14:54,100 --> 03:14:55,100 support. 3539 03:14:55,100 --> 03:14:57,100 >> I think we will also be able to show or 3540 03:14:57,100 --> 03:15:00,601 at least various instances that different 3541 03:15:04,100 --> 03:15:06,100 types of particularly non residential 3542 03:15:06,100 --> 03:15:08,100 development will have different impacts on 3543 03:15:08,100 --> 03:15:11,100 potential different impacts on vmt. Some 3544 03:15:11,100 --> 03:15:13,100 are actually very good. The more locally 3545 03:15:13,100 --> 03:15:16,100 serving businesses we have that isn't 3546 03:15:16,100 --> 03:15:18,100 sending people down to reno or sending 3547 03:15:18,100 --> 03:15:20,100 people to truckee to provide the services 3548 03:15:20,100 --> 03:15:22,100 we hope to provide within the community. 3549 03:15:22,100 --> 03:15:24,100 that's a positive. That's not a impact, 3550 03:15:24,100 --> 03:15:25,100 that is a benefit. 3551 03:15:25,100 --> 03:15:26,100 >> right. 3552 03:15:26,100 --> 03:15:29,100 >> we definitely need to be able to 3553 03:15:29,100 --> 03:15:31,100 recognize that. It is very complicated 3554 03:15:31,100 --> 03:15:33,100 and we are learning as we go along. I 3555 03:15:33,100 --> 03:15:35,100 think the whole state will learn as we go 3556 03:15:35,100 --> 03:15:39,201 along.

From that 4862 04:22:33,100 --> 04:22:37,100 initial brainstorming we did dig in on a 4863 04:22:37,100 --> 04:22:40,100 number of focus groups having deeper 4864 04:22:40,100 --> 04:22:43,100 discussions and identifying more detailed 4865 04:22:43,100 --> 04:22:46,100 concerns. So, overall we held 12 4866 04:22:47,100 --> 04:22:49,401 stakeholder meetings targeted discussions 4867 04:22:50,100 --> 04:22:53,100 over the last 12 months. And then 4868 04:22:53,100 --> 04:22:55,100 additionally just to mention stakeholder 4869 04:22:55,100 --> 04:22:58,100 outreach really once we felt we had 4870 04:22:58,100 --> 04:23:01,100 refined the issues and are formulated 4871 04:23:01,100 --> 04:23:04,100 options for the community to consider, we 4872 04:23:04,100 --> 04:23:08,100 did launch a larger online survey, which 4873 04:23:08,100 --> 04:23:11,601 resulted in over 1500 direct responses so 4874 04:23:12,100 --> 04:23:14,100 we felt that was a pretty good 4875 04:23:14,100 --> 04:23:17,100 representation of the community. I will 4876 04:23:17,100 --> 04:23:21,201 say that the survey was provided through 4877 04:23:22,100 --> 04:23:25,100 three different delivery method. We 4878 04:23:25,100 --> 04:23:28,100 contracted with a contractor to do a 4879 04:23:28,100 --> 04:23:31,100 initial blast to people within the 4880 04:23:31,100 --> 04:23:34,100 community that were sort of signed up to 4881 04:23:34,100 --> 04:23:37,100 give feedback around community issues. We 4882 04:23:37,100 --> 04:23:39,100 also specifically sent that survey out 4883 04:23:39,100 --> 04:23:43,100 through our pio office to our str owners 4884 04:23:43,100 --> 04:23:46,100 and operates and then thirdly just a 4885 04:23:46,100 --> 04:23:48,100 general public getting on next door to get 4886 04:23:48,100 --> 04:23:52,100 it out to the greater community. We 4887 04:23:52,100 --> 04:23:55,100 really felt this method provided us with 4888 04:23:55,100 --> 04:23:57,100 some understanding of where the potential 4889 04:23:57,100 --> 04:23:59,100 biases may be within different groups 4890 04:23:59,100 --> 04:24:02,100 within the issue. So, I'll mention there 4891 04:24:02,100 --> 04:24:04,100 is a detail on that survey in the results 4892 04:24:04,100 --> 04:24:07,100 are contained in your packet and I'll 4893 04:24:07,100 --> 04:24:09,100 highlight I think of importance here 4894 04:24:09,100 --> 04:24:10,100 really is that there is a 4895 04:24:10,100 --> 04:24:13,100 significant-maybe not significant but a 4896 04:24:14,100 --> 04:24:16,100 variation in the response between the 4897 04:24:16,100 --> 04:24:18,100 flash vote and open survey and then also 4898 04:24:18,100 --> 04:24:20,100 the survey that we sent out specifically 4899 04:24:20,100 --> 04:24:24,201 to our str owners and operators. So, 4900 04:24:26,100 --> 04:24:30,100 boiling it down the issues we heard from 4901 04:24:30,100 --> 04:24:32,100 the community outreach, really around 4902 04:24:32,100 --> 04:24:34,100 workforce housing I think your board heard 4903 04:24:34,100 --> 04:24:37,100 those concerns previously this summer. 4904 04:24:38,100 --> 04:24:39,100 neighborhood character around nuisance 4905 04:24:39,100 --> 04:24:42,601 issues, trash, noise, parking. Fire life 4906 04:24:43,100 --> 04:24:46,100 safety, we did talk to the fire districts 4907 04:24:46,100 --> 04:24:48,100 specifically. Them having concerns about 4908 04:24:48,100 --> 04:24:51,100 just consistency of inspections, making 4909 04:24:53,100 --> 04:24:55,100 sure the units were inspected before the 4910 04:24:55,100 --> 04:24:59,201 permit was issued. Also heard from them 4911 04:25:00,100 --> 04:25:03,100 just overall desire for potentially 4912 04:25:03,100 --> 04:25:06,100 folding into defensible space inspection 4913 04:25:07,100 --> 04:25:09,100 so a number different issues we talked to 4914 04:25:09,100 --> 04:25:12,100 the fire districts about. Also of note 4915 04:25:12,100 --> 04:25:15,100 just really the connection with the 4916 04:25:15,100 --> 04:25:19,201 potential for impact on our hotel economy. 4917 04:25:20,100 --> 04:25:21,100 I think the discussion here is really just 4918 04:25:21,100 --> 04:25:25,201 the equity between hotels and second homes 4919 04:25:26,100 --> 04:25:29,100 used as tourist accommodation, so that 4920 04:25:29,100 --> 04:25:31,100 conversation seemed to boil up to the 4921 04:25:31,100 --> 04:25:34,100 surface as well over and over. Lastly, 4922 04:25:34,100 --> 04:25:38,201 I'll mention staff has been really focused 4923 04:25:39,100 --> 04:25:41,100 on the effectiveness of the ordinance as 4924 04:25:41,100 --> 04:25:45,801 far as enforcement and making sure that we 4925 04:25:46,100 --> 04:25:49,100 are being purposeful and removing any 4926 04:25:49,100 --> 04:25:51,100 barriers for implementation of the 4927 04:25:51,100 --> 04:25:53,100 ordinance so you will see that in 4928 04:25:53,100 --> 04:25:56,100 crystal's presentation. Just to mention 4929 04:25:56,100 --> 04:25:58,100 our vision I think like I said we did a 4930 04:25:58,100 --> 04:26:01,100 lot of listening tried to boil down these 4931 04:26:01,100 --> 04:26:03,100 issues and come up with a vision to move 4932 04:26:03,100 --> 04:26:06,100 forward striving for a balance of housing 4933 04:26:06,100 --> 04:26:08,100 between housing in the residential 4934 04:26:08,100 --> 04:26:11,601 community potentially but also our tourist 4935 04:26:12,100 --> 04:26:14,100 housing accommodation within the town 4936 04:26:14,100 --> 04:26:17,100 centers creating a balance there. And 4937 04:26:17,100 --> 04:26:19,100 then also creating a balance and 4938 04:26:19,100 --> 04:26:22,100 supporting our economy in eastern placer 4939 04:26:22,100 --> 04:26:25,100 which is predominantly tourism allowing 4940 04:26:26,100 --> 04:26:28,100 workforce housing and incent vising 4941 04:26:28,100 --> 04:26:31,100 workforce housing. Lastly achieving code 4942 04:26:31,100 --> 04:26:32,100 compliance and maintaining our community 4943 04:26:32,100 --> 04:26:35,100 character so I think this boils it down to 4944 04:26:35,100 --> 04:26:38,100 the three big issues that seem to come out 4945 04:26:38,100 --> 04:26:42,201 of all the engagement. Our team did 4946 04:26:43,100 --> 04:26:46,100 perform additional research. We mentioned 4947 04:26:46,100 --> 04:26:48,100 this to you last time over the summer that 4948 04:26:48,100 --> 04:26:51,100 we started research on other jurisdictions 4949 04:26:51,100 --> 04:26:54,100 and really what they were doing to sort of 4950 04:26:54,100 --> 04:26:55,100 solve some of the challenges they were 4951 04:26:55,100 --> 04:26:58,100 having around destination stewardship and 4952 04:26:59,100 --> 04:27:01,100 tourist mitigation on the screen here is 4953 04:27:01,100 --> 04:27:04,100 just a few of those common actions that 4954 04:27:04,100 --> 04:27:06,100 other areas are taking to address these 4955 04:27:06,100 --> 04:27:09,601 concerns. There is a more detailed 4956 04:27:10,100 --> 04:27:12,100 breakdown in attachment d in your packet. 4957 04:27:12,100 --> 04:27:15,100 so, from this we took clues of some 4958 04:27:15,100 --> 04:27:18,100 practices that we might think are valuable 4959 04:27:18,100 --> 04:27:21,100 and viable within our communities in 4960 04:27:21,100 --> 04:27:24,100 eastern placer and kind of started vetting 4961 04:27:24,100 --> 04:27:27,100 those with the community and stakeholders. 4962 04:27:27,100 --> 04:27:30,601 so we did review approximately 20s 4963 04:27:31,100 --> 04:27:34,100 different jurisdictions in the local 4964 04:27:34,100 --> 04:27:35,100 areas. There are a number of counties 4965 04:27:35,100 --> 04:27:38,100 that have taken action in the area around 4966 04:27:38,100 --> 04:27:41,100 str and targeting other tourist economy 4967 04:27:41,100 --> 04:27:44,100 mountain towns to really look for common 4968 04:27:44,100 --> 04:27:47,100 practices. So, these areas included 4969 04:27:47,100 --> 04:27:50,601 summit county, avon, steam boat springs, 4970 04:27:51,100 --> 04:27:54,601 crest butte in colorado and jackson 4971 04:27:57,100 --> 04:28:01,801 wyoming and moab utah. I will sort of 4972 04:28:03,100 --> 04:28:05,100 highlight the prevalence and you will see 4973 04:28:05,100 --> 04:28:09,801 that in the packet of options related to 4974 04:28:13,100 --> 04:28:15,100 zoning. It is not something we are 4975 04:28:15,100 --> 04:28:17,100 bringing forward today and it is mostly 4976 04:28:17,100 --> 04:28:20,100 because our area of eastern placer is 4977 04:28:20,100 --> 04:28:23,100 really pretty diverse. The zoning 4978 04:28:23,100 --> 04:28:27,100 district and the zoning area is very 4979 04:28:27,100 --> 04:28:29,100 complex, especially when we start 4980 04:28:29,100 --> 04:28:31,100 considering the tahoe basin and the 4981 04:28:31,100 --> 04:28:34,100 overlay of the zone districts from t r pa, 4982 04:28:34,100 --> 04:28:37,100 so you will see that in the packet. It is 4983 04:28:37,100 --> 04:28:40,100 very common around cities opposed to 4984 04:28:40,100 --> 04:28:42,100 counties that have a different 4985 04:28:42,100 --> 04:28:45,100 jurisdictional structure. I'll note the 4986 04:28:47,100 --> 04:28:49,401 uniqueness and inconsistency of 4987 04:28:50,100 --> 04:28:52,100 application of some of these options 4988 04:28:52,100 --> 04:28:55,100 within different areas. I think we were 4989 04:28:55,100 --> 04:28:57,100 really looking for a tool box of best 4990 04:28:57,100 --> 04:29:00,100 practices. I think we found there are a 4991 04:29:00,100 --> 04:29:02,100 lot of practices, but they are applied 4992 04:29:02,100 --> 04:29:05,100 very uniquely for different jurisdictions 4993 04:29:05,100 --> 04:29:07,100 and so I think our charge was to find the 4994 04:29:07,100 --> 04:29:10,100 right tool box and right options for 4995 04:29:10,100 --> 04:29:12,100 placer that we wanted to bring forward for 4996 04:29:12,100 --> 04:29:16,801 you today. Crystal will dive into this a 4997 04:29:17,100 --> 04:29:19,100 little deeper but this is a preview of 4998 04:29:19,100 --> 04:29:23,100 options that we vetted. So before she 4999 04:29:23,100 --> 04:29:26,100 does that I wanted to introduce aaron new 5000 04:29:26,100 --> 04:29:30,100 sane again from bay area urban economics. 5001 04:29:30,100 --> 04:29:33,100 aaron was instrumental in digging in on 5002 04:29:33,100 --> 04:29:37,100 the tot and str data he'll walk through 5003 04:29:37,100 --> 04:29:41,201 and coming up with initial findings around 5004 04:29:42,100 --> 04:29:44,100 the economic questions raised earlier this 5005 04:29:44,100 --> 04:29:47,100 year. So, I'll mention his full report is 5006 04:29:47,100 --> 04:29:51,100 available as attachment b in your packet 5007 04:29:51,100 --> 04:29:56,100 and just sort of to report out again there 5008 04:29:56,100 --> 04:29:58,100 is a very short timeline we asked aaron to 5009 04:29:58,100 --> 04:30:00,100 pull this information together and to have 5010 04:30:00,100 --> 04:30:03,100 this packet ready for you, so it was 5011 04:30:03,100 --> 04:30:06,100 available online on friday for your 5012 04:30:06,100 --> 04:30:08,100 consumption as well as the public. So, 5013 04:30:08,100 --> 04:30:12,801 with that I'll hand it over to aaron. 5014 04:30:19,100 --> 04:30:22,100 >> we had the privilege working with the 5015 04:30:22,100 --> 04:30:25,100 county to pull together information a 5016 04:30:25,100 --> 04:30:28,100 relatively short-term prime with the 5017 04:30:28,100 --> 04:30:30,100 associations between short-term rentals 5018 04:30:30,100 --> 04:30:32,100 and the availability and pricing of 5019 04:30:32,100 --> 04:30:35,100 long-term housing and then also dug into 5020 04:30:35,100 --> 04:30:39,801 some of the available data on the str 5021 04:30:41,100 --> 04:30:44,601 market in eastern placer county specific. 5022 04:30:45,100 --> 04:30:47,100 in terms of the data we looked at specific 5023 04:30:47,100 --> 04:30:50,100 to eastern placer county, the primary data 5024 04:30:50,100 --> 04:30:54,100 source we ended up relying was county 5025 04:30:54,100 --> 04:30:57,100 inventory of tot certificates that is any 5026 04:30:57,100 --> 04:30:58,100 property that collects and remits 5027 04:30:58,100 --> 04:31:01,100 transient occupancy tax as well as the 5028 04:31:01,100 --> 04:31:04,100 county inventory of permitted str. Looked 5029 04:31:04,100 --> 04:31:08,201 at data from a couple private data 5030 04:31:11,100 --> 04:31:13,100 vendors. The data coverage was pretty 5031 04:31:13,100 --> 04:31:15,100 subpar so did not rely on the data 5032 04:31:15,100 --> 04:31:17,100 particularly heavily. We also looked at 5033 04:31:17,100 --> 04:31:20,100 census data with regard to the housing 5034 04:31:20,100 --> 04:31:23,100 inventory and the placer county assessor 5035 04:31:23,100 --> 04:31:26,100 parcel data with regard to home owner 5036 04:31:26,100 --> 04:31:30,201 exemption. The first main phase of the 5037 04:31:31,100 --> 04:31:35,100 research was to do a review of the 5038 04:31:35,100 --> 04:31:37,100 contemporary academic literature with 5039 04:31:37,100 --> 04:31:40,100 regard to relationship with regard to str 5040 04:31:40,100 --> 04:31:42,100 and availability of pricing of long-term 5041 04:31:42,100 --> 04:31:45,100 housing. We also looked at studies and 5042 04:31:45,100 --> 04:31:48,100 specifically spoke to relationship between 5043 04:31:48,100 --> 04:31:50,100 str and hotel viability in particular 5044 04:31:50,100 --> 04:31:53,601 looking at occupancy, average daily rates 5045 04:31:54,100 --> 04:31:56,100 and revenue per available room night. We 5046 04:31:56,100 --> 04:31:59,100 looked at total of about 23 articles about 5047 04:31:59,100 --> 04:32:01,100 16 of those specifically spoke to the 5048 04:32:01,100 --> 04:32:04,100 relationship between str and housing. 4 5049 04:32:04,100 --> 04:32:07,601 looked at relationship between str and 5050 04:32:08,100 --> 04:32:11,100 hotels and had a handsful of others more 5051 04:32:11,100 --> 04:32:15,201 focused on the regulatory responses to str 5052 04:32:18,100 --> 04:32:20,100 markets. The scope of the current 5053 04:32:20,100 --> 04:32:23,100 academic literature mostly focus on large 5054 04:32:23,100 --> 04:32:26,100 urban tourist destinations. Places like 5055 04:32:26,100 --> 04:32:29,100 new york, san francisco, barcelona, 5056 04:32:29,100 --> 04:32:33,801 london. We found study that -looked at a 5057 04:32:36,100 --> 04:32:39,100 variety of communities across oregon 5058 04:32:40,100 --> 04:32:43,100 including larger and smaller rural 5059 04:32:43,100 --> 04:32:46,601 destinations. So, with those caveats in 5060 04:32:49,100 --> 04:32:52,601 mind, the literature on str consistently 5061 04:32:53,100 --> 04:32:56,100 found a significant relationship between 5062 04:32:57,100 --> 04:33:00,100 the prevalence of str in a certain 5063 04:33:00,100 --> 04:33:01,100 residential market and the availability 5064 04:33:01,100 --> 04:33:04,100 and pricing of long-term housing. 5065 04:33:04,100 --> 04:33:08,100 generally speaking the effect seem to be 5066 04:33:08,100 --> 04:33:10,100 stronger between str and for sale housing 5067 04:33:10,100 --> 04:33:13,601 compared to pricing of rental housing. 5068 04:33:15,100 --> 04:33:19,201 the logic is str effect the pricing 5069 04:33:20,100 --> 04:33:22,100 rational for for sale housing where they 5070 04:33:22,100 --> 04:33:25,100 effect pricing for rental housing more in 5071 04:33:25,100 --> 04:33:27,100 terms of reduction in the available 5072 04:33:27,100 --> 04:33:30,100 supply. The literature found that in 5073 04:33:30,100 --> 04:33:33,100 general str do incentivize conversion of 5074 04:33:33,100 --> 04:33:36,100 long-term housing and a number of studies 5075 04:33:36,100 --> 04:33:38,401 specifically identified increase trend 5076 04:33:39,100 --> 04:33:42,601 toward investor activity. That is a 5077 04:33:43,100 --> 04:33:46,100 effecting housing pricing. In terms of 5078 04:33:46,100 --> 04:33:49,100 the document relationship between the str 5079 04:33:49,100 --> 04:33:52,100 and hotel market, it is much less well 5080 04:33:52,100 --> 04:33:54,100 studied and the results are somewhat 5081 04:33:54,100 --> 04:33:56,100 inconsistent, however there is a handful 5082 04:33:56,100 --> 04:33:59,100 of studies that did document relationships 5083 04:33:59,100 --> 04:34:03,100 in particular on hotel pricing and result 5084 04:34:03,100 --> 04:34:07,201 higher str in the market correlating to 5085 04:34:08,100 --> 04:34:10,100 less aggressive pricing for hotel 5086 04:34:10,100 --> 04:34:13,100 properties. As a general indication those 5087 04:34:13,100 --> 04:34:17,201 effects may effect mid-tier and lower tier 5088 04:34:18,100 --> 04:34:20,100 properties more compared to higher tier 5089 04:34:20,100 --> 04:34:23,100 properties. The research seems to suggest 5090 04:34:23,100 --> 04:34:27,100 hotels across the spectrum are more or 5091 04:34:27,100 --> 04:34:30,100 less equally impacted. Studies also 5092 04:34:31,100 --> 04:34:33,100 specifically noted that while some of the 5093 04:34:33,100 --> 04:34:36,601 coefficients of impact and magnitude of 5094 04:34:37,100 --> 04:34:41,100 str 1 percent increase in str may appear 5095 04:34:41,100 --> 04:34:44,100 relatively modest the rapid growth in the 5096 04:34:44,100 --> 04:34:47,100 str market can have a significant 5097 04:34:47,100 --> 04:34:49,100 cumulative affect on the markets. Next 5098 04:34:49,100 --> 04:34:53,801 slide. So, I want to change gears and 5099 04:34:54,100 --> 04:34:56,100 talk about the 5100 04:34:56,100 --> 04:34:58,100 [audio cut out] 5101 04:34:58,100 --> 04:35:01,100 according to data provided by the county 5102 04:35:01,100 --> 04:35:04,601 there are about 15600 total housing units 5103 04:35:06,100 --> 04:35:08,100 in the eastern county. Of those about 12 5104 04:35:08,100 --> 04:35:11,601 percent are owner occupied but 9 percent 5105 04:35:12,100 --> 04:35:15,100 are estimated to be long-term rented with 5106 04:35:15,100 --> 04:35:18,601 just under 80 percent being second homes. 5107 04:35:19,100 --> 04:35:23,801 based on the tot certificate data we have, 5108 04:35:24,100 --> 04:35:28,100 it appears as of the 2020-2021 fiscal year 5109 04:35:28,100 --> 04:35:31,100 there are about 4420 residential units 5110 04:35:31,100 --> 04:35:34,601 that were submitting tot. That represents 5111 04:35:35,100 --> 04:35:38,100 about 28 percent of the total housing 5112 04:35:38,100 --> 04:35:40,401 stock. There were additional 1445 5113 04:35:41,100 --> 04:35:44,100 residential unit that were registered, 5114 04:35:45,100 --> 04:35:47,100 they had tot certificates about not 5115 04:35:47,100 --> 04:35:49,100 actively generated tot to the county. 5116 04:35:49,100 --> 04:35:51,100 that represents 9 percent of the housing 5117 04:35:51,100 --> 04:35:54,100 stock. To be more specific, we were 5118 04:35:54,100 --> 04:35:57,100 looking at single family units, 5119 04:36:00,100 --> 04:36:02,100 condominium, townhomes, plex units, mobile 5120 04:36:02,100 --> 04:36:03,100 homes and apartments as being 5121 04:36:03,100 --> 04:36:06,100 representative of short-term rentals. We 5122 04:36:06,100 --> 04:36:09,100 are categorizing hotel motel property bed 5123 04:36:09,100 --> 04:36:12,100 and breakfast condo hotel and time share 5124 04:36:12,100 --> 04:36:14,100 property as part of the long-term lodging 5125 04:36:14,100 --> 04:36:17,100 market so those units are not included in 5126 04:36:17,100 --> 04:36:21,201 the totals. Next slide. So, this figure 5127 04:36:25,100 --> 04:36:27,100 illustrates growth in a number of active 5128 04:36:27,100 --> 04:36:30,100 revenue generated tot certificates by unit 5129 04:36:30,100 --> 04:36:33,100 type. So, the orange line essentially 5130 04:36:33,100 --> 04:36:37,801 shows the inventory of hotel motel b & b 5131 04:36:38,100 --> 04:36:41,100 over time shows that inventory being 5132 04:36:41,100 --> 04:36:43,100 relatively stable. The blue line shows 5133 04:36:43,100 --> 04:36:46,100 residential units, again single family, 5134 04:36:46,100 --> 04:36:49,601 plex, condo, etcetera. And it shows 5135 04:36:50,100 --> 04:36:52,100 fairly consistent growth over time among 5136 04:36:52,100 --> 04:36:55,601 the short-term rental market. Next. Here 5137 04:36:59,100 --> 04:37:02,100 we are layering in an additional line in 5138 04:37:02,100 --> 04:37:04,100 gray that specifically shows the inventory 5139 04:37:04,100 --> 04:37:07,100 of condo hotel and time sharing units and 5140 04:37:07,100 --> 04:37:10,601 we see a significant increase and 5141 04:37:12,100 --> 04:37:15,601 volatility. We are still working to 5142 04:37:17,100 --> 04:37:20,100 identify [inaudible comments] next slide. 5143 04:37:22,100 --> 04:37:24,100 here we show the same data but in a 5144 04:37:24,100 --> 04:37:27,100 slightly different format and you see the 5145 04:37:27,100 --> 04:37:30,100 cumulative inventory of overnight visitor 5146 04:37:31,100 --> 04:37:34,601 accommodations. You can see the single 5147 04:37:36,100 --> 04:37:38,100 family plex and apartment inventory of 5148 04:37:38,100 --> 04:37:41,601 short-term rentals along the bottom in 5149 04:37:45,100 --> 04:37:48,601 increase. Gradual increase in condo unit. 5150 04:37:49,100 --> 04:37:52,100 increase in hotel motel properties and 5151 04:37:52,100 --> 04:37:55,100 significant increase but volatility in the 5152 04:37:55,100 --> 04:37:59,201 condo hotel and time share. Next slide. 5153 04:38:02,100 --> 04:38:05,100 this data shows the total number of str in 5154 04:38:05,100 --> 04:38:08,100 a couple different buckets as a percentage 5155 04:38:08,100 --> 04:38:11,100 of the housing stock. The most recent 5156 04:38:11,100 --> 04:38:14,100 numbers there were about 2510 total 5157 04:38:14,100 --> 04:38:16,100 permitted str in eastern placer county 5158 04:38:16,100 --> 04:38:18,100 that represented about 16 percent of the 5159 04:38:18,100 --> 04:38:20,100 total housing stock. If you look more 5160 04:38:20,100 --> 04:38:23,601 broadly include unit excluded from the 5161 04:38:26,100 --> 04:38:28,100 current permit regulations that total 5162 04:38:28,100 --> 04:38:31,100 increases to just over 4400 units total 5163 04:38:31,100 --> 04:38:33,100 which is about 28 percent of the total 5164 04:38:33,100 --> 04:38:37,801 housing stock. If you also layer in other 5165 04:38:39,100 --> 04:38:41,100 tot certificates associated with 5166 04:38:41,100 --> 04:38:44,100 residential units not generating revenue 5167 04:38:44,100 --> 04:38:47,100 but have the potential to do so, that 5168 04:38:47,100 --> 04:38:48,100 percentage increases to about 30 percent 5169 04:38:48,100 --> 04:38:51,100 the total housing stock that could 5170 04:38:51,100 --> 04:38:53,401 potentially engage short-term rental 5171 04:38:55,100 --> 04:38:58,601 activity. This shows a slightly different 5172 04:38:59,100 --> 04:39:02,100 percentage looking at just single family 5173 04:39:02,100 --> 04:39:05,601 inventory both within the str inventory 5174 04:39:08,100 --> 04:39:11,601 and total housing stock. Just under 2600 5175 04:39:14,100 --> 04:39:17,100 units generating revenue that represented 5176 04:39:17,100 --> 04:39:19,100 about 21 percent of the total single 5177 04:39:19,100 --> 04:39:23,801 family inventory. If you are in the unit 5178 04:39:24,100 --> 04:39:27,100 not generating revenue about the tot 5179 04:39:27,100 --> 04:39:30,100 certificate it increased it 3800 or 31 5180 04:39:32,100 --> 04:39:35,601 percent of inventory. This figure shows 5181 04:39:37,100 --> 04:39:40,100 the distribution of active revenue 5182 04:39:41,100 --> 04:39:44,100 generating tot certificates that were 5183 04:39:44,100 --> 04:39:46,100 joined with the county parcel inventory 5184 04:39:46,100 --> 04:39:50,100 and the reason we did that was to identify 5185 04:39:50,100 --> 04:39:53,100 which revenue generating str were 5186 04:39:54,100 --> 04:39:56,100 associated with properties that had 5187 04:39:56,100 --> 04:39:59,100 claimed the state and federal home owner 5188 04:39:59,100 --> 04:40:02,100 exemption on the taxes and we are using 5189 04:40:02,100 --> 04:40:04,100 that essentially as the proxy for 5190 04:40:04,100 --> 04:40:07,100 full-time occupancy. The data generally 5191 04:40:08,100 --> 04:40:11,601 indicate units with home owner exemptions 5192 04:40:12,100 --> 04:40:14,100 represent 3 percent of all revenue 5193 04:40:14,100 --> 04:40:17,100 generating residential units that have tot 5194 04:40:17,100 --> 04:40:20,100 certificates. About 133 units in total 5195 04:40:21,100 --> 04:40:24,100 and most of the units are second family. 5196 04:40:24,100 --> 04:40:26,100 the remainder of the inventory is presumed 5197 04:40:26,100 --> 04:40:28,100 to be second homes as well as investor 5198 04:40:28,100 --> 04:40:31,601 owned properties.

On the 5199 04:40:34,100 --> 04:40:36,100 left here we can see information that was 5200 04:40:36,100 --> 04:40:39,601 pulled from the county's permitted str 5201 04:40:40,100 --> 04:40:43,100 inventory so this is just permitted str 5202 04:40:43,100 --> 04:40:46,100 and among those properties about 62 5203 04:40:47,100 --> 04:40:49,100 percent were professionally managed while 5204 04:40:49,100 --> 04:40:52,100 38 percent were owner managed. On the 5205 04:40:52,100 --> 04:40:56,201 right we see data for all revenue 5206 04:40:57,100 --> 04:41:01,201 generated units and from that we see 57 5207 04:41:03,100 --> 04:41:05,100 percent of the total active str inventory 5208 04:41:05,100 --> 04:41:08,100 was permitted under the county existing 5209 04:41:08,100 --> 04:41:11,100 regulations. Next slide. This figure 5210 04:41:14,100 --> 04:41:16,401 illustrates distribution of revenue 5211 04:41:18,100 --> 04:41:21,100 generating tot certificates by type 5212 04:41:22,100 --> 04:41:23,100 throughout the county. Generally speaking 5213 04:41:23,100 --> 04:41:26,100 we see significant clustering of 5214 04:41:26,100 --> 04:41:28,100 short-term rental properties in proximity 5215 04:41:28,100 --> 04:41:31,100 to major tourist destinations in 5216 04:41:31,100 --> 04:41:34,601 particular you have olympic valley alpine 5217 04:41:35,100 --> 04:41:39,201 meadows north star and north and west 5218 04:41:41,100 --> 04:41:44,601 shores of lake tahoe and [inaudible 5219 04:41:45,100 --> 04:41:48,100 comments] this figure illustrates the 5220 04:41:49,100 --> 04:41:52,100 distribution of revenue generating str by 5221 04:41:52,100 --> 04:41:55,100 bedroom size. We can see the majority of 5222 04:41:55,100 --> 04:41:58,100 units have between 2 and 4 bedrooms with 5223 04:41:58,100 --> 04:42:01,100 only about just under 6 percent of the 5224 04:42:01,100 --> 04:42:04,100 total str inventory having 5 or more 5225 04:42:04,100 --> 04:42:06,100 bedrooms and this generally suggests the 5226 04:42:06,100 --> 04:42:09,100 majority of rental properties in eastern 5227 04:42:09,100 --> 04:42:11,100 placer county are of a size functionally 5228 04:42:11,100 --> 04:42:14,100 appropriate for long-term housing as well. 5229 04:42:14,100 --> 04:42:18,801 next slide. Now we will talk about the 5230 04:42:20,100 --> 04:42:22,100 availability of occupancy of revenue 5231 04:42:22,100 --> 04:42:24,401 generating short-term rental properties. 5232 04:42:27,100 --> 04:42:28,100 this slide in particular is illustrating 5233 04:42:28,100 --> 04:42:31,100 for the most part short-term rental 5234 04:42:31,100 --> 04:42:34,100 properties are making available for 5235 04:42:34,100 --> 04:42:36,100 occupancy for very large segments of the 5236 04:42:36,100 --> 04:42:39,100 year. You can see the largest cohort is 5237 04:42:39,100 --> 04:42:42,601 271 nights per year. The general thinking 5238 04:42:43,100 --> 04:42:45,100 is most property owners are making their 5239 04:42:45,100 --> 04:42:47,100 property available for large portions of 5240 04:42:47,100 --> 04:42:50,100 the year so they can take advantage of 5241 04:42:50,100 --> 04:42:53,100 peak in demand as they materialize within 5242 04:42:53,100 --> 04:42:56,100 the market and they really only intend to 5243 04:42:56,100 --> 04:42:59,100 rent the unit for smaller amounts of time. 5244 04:42:59,100 --> 04:43:03,201 next slide. Here we see the distribution 5245 04:43:05,100 --> 04:43:09,100 of occupancy by number of nights. All is 5246 04:43:09,100 --> 04:43:12,100 a large clustering around hundred nights 5247 04:43:12,100 --> 04:43:17,100 and less and then a tale going off with 5248 04:43:17,100 --> 04:43:20,601 fewer and fewer properties being rented 5249 04:43:22,100 --> 04:43:25,100 throughout the year. Here we have the 5250 04:43:25,100 --> 04:43:28,100 average and median availability and 5251 04:43:28,100 --> 04:43:30,401 occupancy for revenue generating 5252 04:43:31,100 --> 04:43:32,100 residential properties with tot 5253 04:43:32,100 --> 04:43:36,100 certificates. You can see that on average 5254 04:43:36,100 --> 04:43:40,100 units are being made available of about 5255 04:43:40,100 --> 04:43:43,100 250 nights per year and occupied 103 5256 04:43:44,100 --> 04:43:47,100 nights average. There is about 104 5257 04:43:48,100 --> 04:43:52,100 weekend nights per year. So, we can see 5258 04:43:52,100 --> 04:43:54,100 units are occupied for significant 5259 04:43:54,100 --> 04:43:56,100 portions of the year and we also have to 5260 04:43:56,100 --> 04:43:58,100 acknowledge that it may not be every 5261 04:43:58,100 --> 04:44:00,100 weekend but you may have certain times of 5262 04:44:00,100 --> 04:44:03,601 year that have concentrations of demand 5263 04:44:04,100 --> 04:44:06,100 and a unit may be vacant for other 5264 04:44:06,100 --> 04:44:08,100 portions of the year. In general this 5265 04:44:08,100 --> 04:44:11,100 equals out to be average occupancy rate of 5266 04:44:11,100 --> 04:44:14,100 about 41 percent based on the available 5267 04:44:14,100 --> 04:44:17,100 self reported dat aa. In terms of the 5268 04:44:17,100 --> 04:44:20,100 average price paid per occupied night, we 5269 04:44:20,100 --> 04:44:24,201 are seeing total of about $344 per night 5270 04:44:25,100 --> 04:44:28,100 per unit. Based on average occupancy that 5271 04:44:28,100 --> 04:44:32,100 averages out to total gross revenue of 5272 04:44:32,100 --> 04:44:34,100 little over $35 thousand per year and if 5273 04:44:34,100 --> 04:44:37,100 we break that down into monthly average 5274 04:44:37,100 --> 04:44:41,100 that total is about $2900 per month. We 5275 04:44:41,100 --> 04:44:45,100 are recognizing the revenue may accrue in 5276 04:44:45,100 --> 04:44:47,100 lumps throughout the year and may not be 5277 04:44:47,100 --> 04:44:50,100 evenly distributed [inaudible comments] we 5278 04:45:03,100 --> 04:45:06,601 also compare that gross revenue generating 5279 04:45:07,100 --> 04:45:10,100 potential that is equal a little over 50 5280 04:45:10,100 --> 04:45:12,100 percent of the total debt service payment 5281 04:45:12,100 --> 04:45:16,801 for medium priced home. If you like at 5282 04:45:17,100 --> 04:45:19,100 sales between january and september this 5283 04:45:19,100 --> 04:45:23,201 year. Next slide. So while we don't 5284 04:45:24,100 --> 04:45:27,601 necessarily have a direct sufficient data 5285 04:45:29,100 --> 04:45:32,100 to substantiate direct relationship in 5286 04:45:32,100 --> 04:45:35,100 eastern placer county between str and 5287 04:45:35,100 --> 04:45:37,100 long-term pricing availability the 5288 04:45:37,100 --> 04:45:39,100 available literature suggests there is 5289 04:45:39,100 --> 04:45:41,401 likely some possible relationship. 5290 04:45:45,100 --> 04:45:47,100 [audio cutting out] 5291 04:45:47,100 --> 04:45:51,201 showing the average occupancy and vac ancy 5292 04:45:54,100 --> 04:45:56,401 between the 2006, 2010 community survey. 5293 04:46:03,100 --> 04:46:04,100 [inaudible comments] increase in the 5294 04:46:04,100 --> 04:46:06,100 number of units or percentage of units 5295 04:46:06,100 --> 04:46:09,100 held vacant for seasonally occasional use, 5296 04:46:09,100 --> 04:46:13,100 decrease in percent on units that are 5297 04:46:13,100 --> 04:46:16,601 full-time occupied. Next slide. So, one 5298 04:46:18,100 --> 04:46:20,100 other piece of the analysis we were 5299 04:46:20,100 --> 04:46:23,100 charged evaluating what the relationship 5300 04:46:23,100 --> 04:46:27,201 between str and the hotel and motel 5301 04:46:32,100 --> 04:46:34,100 overnight accommodations market. We are 5302 04:46:34,100 --> 04:46:38,100 doing this in order to essentially better 5303 04:46:38,100 --> 04:46:41,601 understand the extent to which regulating 5304 04:46:43,100 --> 04:46:46,100 str constrain the ability of tourist 5305 04:46:46,100 --> 04:46:48,100 accommodation recognizing eastern placer 5306 04:46:48,100 --> 04:46:52,100 county is a tourist driven economy. We 5307 04:46:52,100 --> 04:46:55,100 initially did that looking at the 2016 5308 04:46:55,100 --> 04:46:58,601 dean ronion visitor demand economic impact 5309 04:47:00,100 --> 04:47:03,100 study and we updated the numbers to get a 5310 04:47:03,100 --> 04:47:05,100 sense of the total number of visitor days 5311 04:47:05,100 --> 04:47:08,100 and or overnight-demand for overnight 5312 04:47:13,100 --> 04:47:15,100 accommodations and seen a significant 5313 04:47:15,100 --> 04:47:18,100 increase. There is insufficient data at 5314 04:47:18,100 --> 04:47:20,100 this time to fully assess the extend to 5315 04:47:20,100 --> 04:47:23,100 which the current inventory of overnight 5316 04:47:23,100 --> 04:47:26,100 accommodations is adequate. That said, 5317 04:47:26,100 --> 04:47:28,100 additional data that summarized in the 5318 04:47:28,100 --> 04:47:31,100 report attached to your packet suggests 5319 04:47:31,100 --> 04:47:34,100 that occupancy among hotel and motel 5320 04:47:34,100 --> 04:47:37,100 properties has been decreasing moderately 5321 04:47:37,100 --> 04:47:40,100 over the last handful of years which 5322 04:47:40,100 --> 04:47:42,100 corresponded with increase in occupancy 5323 04:47:42,100 --> 04:47:45,100 among short-term rental properties. This 5324 04:47:46,100 --> 04:47:49,100 suggests that perhaps the regulation of 5325 04:47:49,100 --> 04:47:52,100 short-term rental properties might result 5326 04:47:55,100 --> 04:47:58,100 in increased occupancy among hotel motel 5327 04:47:58,100 --> 04:48:00,100 properties. However, we also acknowledge 5328 04:48:00,100 --> 04:48:03,601 that demand among tourists for overnight 5329 04:48:05,100 --> 04:48:09,201 accommodations tends to occur in an uneven 5330 04:48:10,100 --> 04:48:13,601 way, so additional research may be 5331 04:48:14,100 --> 04:48:16,100 necessary to assess the balance of demand 5332 04:48:16,100 --> 04:48:19,100 and supply between tourists overnight 5333 04:48:19,100 --> 04:48:22,100 stays and the lodging industry. Next 5334 04:48:22,100 --> 04:48:25,601 slide. So, again in summary, the 5335 04:48:26,100 --> 04:48:29,100 literature review we prepared as part of 5336 04:48:29,100 --> 04:48:31,100 the research generally indicated str do 5337 04:48:31,100 --> 04:48:34,100 have a significant relationship between 5338 04:48:34,100 --> 04:48:36,100 the availability and pricing of long-term 5339 04:48:36,100 --> 04:48:38,100 housing as well as occupancy and pricing 5340 04:48:38,100 --> 04:48:41,100 for hotel motel properties. About 28 5341 04:48:42,100 --> 04:48:45,100 percent of the current housing stock is 5342 04:48:45,100 --> 04:48:48,100 actively used for short-term rental 5343 04:48:49,100 --> 04:48:52,100 purpose. Since 2010 we have seen 43 5344 04:48:52,100 --> 04:48:55,100 percent increase in the number of str 5345 04:48:55,100 --> 04:48:57,100 units that are active in eastern placer 5346 04:48:57,100 --> 04:49:00,100 county. We have seen 47 percent increase 5347 04:49:00,100 --> 04:49:04,801 in the number of condo hotel and time 5348 04:49:05,100 --> 04:49:08,100 share property and virtually no change in 5349 04:49:08,100 --> 04:49:11,100 hotel motel units. In general there is 5350 04:49:11,100 --> 04:49:13,100 str properties are generating average of 5351 04:49:13,100 --> 04:49:16,100 around $35 thousand per year in gross 5352 04:49:16,100 --> 04:49:19,100 revenue and occupied for average around 5353 04:49:19,100 --> 04:49:22,100 103 nights per year. The current average 5354 04:49:22,100 --> 04:49:25,100 gross revenue generated by short-term 5355 04:49:28,100 --> 04:49:30,100 rental property is competitive for 5356 04:49:30,100 --> 04:49:33,601 long-term rental housing and that gross 5357 04:49:34,100 --> 04:49:37,100 revenue is sufficient to offset 5358 04:49:37,100 --> 04:49:39,100 significant portion of the holding cost 5359 04:49:39,100 --> 04:49:42,601 for second home owners and residential 5360 04:49:44,100 --> 04:49:47,100 property in eastern county. Next slide. 5361 04:49:47,100 --> 04:49:49,100 I think with that I'll hand it back to 5362 04:49:49,100 --> 04:49:52,100 stephanie. Thank you very much. 5363 04:49:54,100 --> 04:49:56,100 >> thank you aaron. And good afternoon 5364 04:49:56,100 --> 04:49:59,100 everyone. Crystal jacobson with the 5365 04:49:59,100 --> 04:50:01,100 community development resource agency and 5366 04:50:01,100 --> 04:50:06,100 so I am going touch on-I will walk you 5367 04:50:06,100 --> 04:50:09,100 through some of had amendments we have 5368 04:50:09,100 --> 04:50:11,100 been framing up for the board 5369 04:50:11,100 --> 04:50:13,100 consideration but before I do that, I want 5370 04:50:13,100 --> 04:50:16,100 to touch on our overall housing and 5371 04:50:16,100 --> 04:50:18,100 economic development strategy because with 5372 04:50:18,100 --> 04:50:21,100 this effort we are working on right now 5373 04:50:21,100 --> 04:50:24,601 updating our str ordinance, it is 5374 04:50:25,100 --> 04:50:27,100 important to look what we are doing 5375 04:50:27,100 --> 04:50:30,100 overall. This is just the ordinance 5376 04:50:30,100 --> 04:50:34,100 update is one piece of the puzzle to 5377 04:50:34,100 --> 04:50:36,100 address housing and increase tourism and 5378 04:50:36,100 --> 04:50:40,100 impact tourism bring to the region so we 5379 04:50:40,100 --> 04:50:41,100 want to think what we are doing on the 5380 04:50:41,100 --> 04:50:44,100 incentive side and regulatory side. 5381 04:50:44,100 --> 04:50:46,100 carrot and stick approach. On the housing 5382 04:50:46,100 --> 04:50:48,100 side we have been focusing on the 5383 04:50:48,100 --> 04:50:49,100 development of workforce housing in the 5384 04:50:49,100 --> 04:50:51,401 tahoe region. Celebrating the 5385 04:50:53,100 --> 04:50:55,100 construction of hundred units in placer 5386 04:50:55,100 --> 04:50:58,100 with meadow view and hopkin village 5387 04:50:58,100 --> 04:51:01,601 projects which jane touched on earlier. 5388 04:51:02,100 --> 04:51:03,100 and then we also have other housing 5389 04:51:03,100 --> 04:51:07,100 projects in the works namely the dollar 5390 04:51:07,100 --> 04:51:09,100 creek crossings and orts looking at the 5391 04:51:09,100 --> 04:51:12,100 development of construction both in and 5392 04:51:12,100 --> 04:51:16,100 out of the basin. We also freed up tot 5393 04:51:16,100 --> 04:51:20,100 dollars from the tbid dedicated to housing 5394 04:51:20,100 --> 04:51:23,100 and transportation. The workforce housing 5395 04:51:32,100 --> 04:51:34,100 preservation program is a great example of 5396 04:51:34,100 --> 04:51:37,601 your board's commitment to incent vising 5397 04:51:38,100 --> 04:51:40,100 home ownership to the local workforce in 5398 04:51:40,100 --> 04:51:43,100 the county. In addition your board 5399 04:51:43,100 --> 04:51:44,100 involvement and contribution to the the 5400 04:51:44,100 --> 04:51:47,100 truckee tahoe workforce housing agency is 5401 04:51:47,100 --> 04:51:50,100 just another example of how we are 5402 04:51:50,100 --> 04:51:53,100 addressing housing needs in our region. 5403 04:51:53,100 --> 04:51:55,100 the north lake tahoe economic development 5404 04:51:55,100 --> 04:51:58,601 incentive program tot rebate program for 5405 04:51:59,100 --> 04:52:01,100 commercial lodging which your board 5406 04:52:01,100 --> 04:52:03,100 approved is a example of providing 5407 04:52:03,100 --> 04:52:05,100 incentives to help get lodging units 5408 04:52:05,100 --> 04:52:08,100 constructed and on the ground in our tahoe 5409 04:52:08,100 --> 04:52:11,100 region. And then on the regulatory side 5410 04:52:11,100 --> 04:52:14,100 we brought forward and continue to work on 5411 04:52:14,100 --> 04:52:17,100 various code amendments aimed at 5412 04:52:18,100 --> 04:52:19,100 eliminating barriers to housing and 5413 04:52:19,100 --> 04:52:21,100 promote redevelopment in our town centers 5414 04:52:21,100 --> 04:52:24,100 in the tahoe basin area, so in the spring 5415 04:52:24,100 --> 04:52:27,100 we are going to bring forward another 5416 04:52:27,100 --> 04:52:30,100 amendment package to the area plan aimed 5417 04:52:30,100 --> 04:52:32,100 at redevelopment of our town centers. So, 5418 04:52:32,100 --> 04:52:35,100 while this effort this update to the 5419 04:52:35,100 --> 04:52:37,100 short-term rental ordinance could result 5420 04:52:37,100 --> 04:52:40,100 in the potential restriction of str uses 5421 04:52:40,100 --> 04:52:43,100 it is heavy on the regulatory side. It is 5422 04:52:43,100 --> 04:52:45,100 important to look at the big picture and 5423 04:52:45,100 --> 04:52:48,100 what we are doing to address housing and 5424 04:52:48,100 --> 04:52:50,100 tourism in the region and again, it is 5425 04:52:50,100 --> 04:52:54,201 that carrot and stick approach. I will 5426 04:52:55,100 --> 04:52:58,100 touch on some of the str restrictions you 5427 04:52:58,100 --> 04:52:59,100 board could consider as part of this 5428 04:52:59,100 --> 04:53:02,100 ordinance update. As you know our current 5429 04:53:02,100 --> 04:53:05,100 ordinance is intended to address 5430 04:53:07,100 --> 04:53:08,100 nuisances. We do continue to track the 5431 04:53:08,100 --> 04:53:11,100 various areas of the code we need to clean 5432 04:53:11,100 --> 04:53:13,100 up and modify and I will go through those 5433 04:53:13,100 --> 04:53:16,100 here in a minute. But before I do that, I 5434 04:53:16,100 --> 04:53:18,100 am going to outline additional policy 5435 04:53:18,100 --> 04:53:21,100 options that your board could consider 5436 04:53:21,100 --> 04:53:23,100 with this update. These are more 5437 04:53:23,100 --> 04:53:26,601 restrictive options that can be considered 5438 04:53:27,100 --> 04:53:29,100 individually or layered and I'll walk 5439 04:53:29,100 --> 04:53:33,201 through this list here. I'm one over. 5440 04:53:35,100 --> 04:53:40,401 are we missing a slide? I think we might 5441 04:53:45,100 --> 04:53:48,100 be missing a slide or we are having a 5442 04:53:48,100 --> 04:53:51,100 slide problems. There we go. Okay. So, 5443 04:53:51,100 --> 04:53:53,100 the first on the list is the establishment 5444 04:53:53,100 --> 04:53:57,100 of numerical cap on str. There are three 5445 04:53:57,100 --> 04:53:59,100 options listed here that you could 5446 04:53:59,100 --> 04:54:03,100 consider. The first option a is taking 5447 04:54:03,100 --> 04:54:06,100 into consideration the existing str 5448 04:54:06,100 --> 04:54:09,100 inventory and active tot certificates. 5449 04:54:09,100 --> 04:54:12,100 so, as aaron reported after fully studying 5450 04:54:12,100 --> 04:54:14,100 our inventory we know this number is about 5451 04:54:14,100 --> 04:54:17,601 4400 or so, it is 4420 represents about 28 5452 04:54:20,100 --> 04:54:23,100 percent of the housing stock. And then 5453 04:54:23,100 --> 04:54:26,100 again as he indicated these numbers do not 5454 04:54:26,100 --> 04:54:30,100 include hotel motel units. And then I 5455 04:54:30,100 --> 04:54:31,100 will skip to the bottom number which is 5456 04:54:31,100 --> 04:54:35,801 the existing inventory of str plus all tot 5457 04:54:36,100 --> 04:54:38,100 certificates so this is a larger number, 5458 04:54:38,100 --> 04:54:41,100 about 5800 and represents 38 percent of 5459 04:54:42,100 --> 04:54:44,100 our housing stock so again both of the 5460 04:54:44,100 --> 04:54:47,100 numbers mentioned do not include housing 5461 04:54:47,100 --> 04:54:50,100 or hotel or motel units. And then option 5462 04:54:50,100 --> 04:54:53,100 b there in the middle is your board could 5463 04:54:53,100 --> 04:54:56,100 consider something less then those 5464 04:54:56,100 --> 04:54:58,100 numbers. You can come in under that. 5465 04:54:58,100 --> 04:55:02,100 what we did not include here is an option 5466 04:55:02,100 --> 04:55:05,601 to consider the full inventory, the 5800 5467 04:55:06,100 --> 04:55:08,100 plus an additional 5 or 10 percent. I 5468 04:55:08,100 --> 04:55:10,100 know that was discussed at the last 5469 04:55:10,100 --> 04:55:14,801 hearing we had with the board on the 5470 04:55:15,100 --> 04:55:17,100 moratorium. We did not include that 5471 04:55:17,100 --> 04:55:18,100 option for your consideration today 5472 04:55:18,100 --> 04:55:20,100 because I think the inventory after 5473 04:55:20,100 --> 04:55:22,100 studying it was much larger then we had 5474 04:55:22,100 --> 04:55:24,100 anticipated. I remember our permit 5475 04:55:24,100 --> 04:55:27,100 numbers right now for str are around 2500 5476 04:55:27,100 --> 04:55:30,100 and so we didn't include that but that is 5477 04:55:30,100 --> 04:55:31,100 certainly something your board could 5478 04:55:31,100 --> 04:55:33,100 consider is the full inventory plus in 5479 04:55:33,100 --> 04:55:37,100 addition. So, the next item is a minimum 5480 04:55:37,100 --> 04:55:40,100 or maximum night rented per year. This is 5481 04:55:40,100 --> 04:55:42,100 another item again you could consider this 5482 04:55:42,100 --> 04:55:46,100 individually or layer it. And for the 5483 04:55:46,100 --> 04:55:48,100 minimum this is something that could be 5484 04:55:48,100 --> 04:55:52,100 layered if your board decides to impose a 5485 04:55:52,100 --> 04:55:55,100 numerical cap and this is a way to incent 5486 04:55:55,100 --> 04:55:59,100 vise folks that have permits or tot 5487 04:55:59,100 --> 04:56:01,100 certificates but not been renting, so we 5488 04:56:01,100 --> 04:56:05,201 know that number is around 1400, folks on 5489 04:56:07,100 --> 04:56:10,100 a tot certificate or str permit and not 5490 04:56:10,100 --> 04:56:12,100 renting. By establishing a minimum you 5491 04:56:12,100 --> 04:56:17,401 would incent vise the folks to rent and by 5492 04:56:18,100 --> 04:56:21,100 not using it the next person with access 5493 04:56:21,100 --> 04:56:24,100 the permit and rent it. Establishing 5494 04:56:24,100 --> 04:56:26,100 maximum standard can do two things. 5495 04:56:26,100 --> 04:56:30,100 first, is that we got a average number of 5496 04:56:30,100 --> 04:56:34,100 nights stays around 103 we know per year 5497 04:56:34,100 --> 04:56:38,100 and then the return on that investment of 5498 04:56:38,100 --> 04:56:40,100 throwing that into the mix is about 35 5499 04:56:40,100 --> 04:56:43,100 thousand per year these folks are making 5500 04:56:43,100 --> 04:56:47,201 on their str. Your board could the 5501 04:56:53,100 --> 04:56:55,100 maximum. If long-term renting is more 5502 04:56:55,100 --> 04:56:57,100 profitable they may rethink their strategy 5503 04:56:57,100 --> 04:57:00,100 and throw their unit into a long-term 5504 04:57:00,100 --> 04:57:04,201 housing mix. This option may also limit 5505 04:57:05,100 --> 04:57:07,100 people or corporations from purchasing 5506 04:57:07,100 --> 04:57:11,201 homes for the sole purpose of short-term 5507 04:57:18,100 --> 04:57:22,100 renting it. The next item on the list is 5508 04:57:22,100 --> 04:57:25,100 a waiting period. This could be 6 months 5509 04:57:25,100 --> 04:57:27,100 12, this is something the town of truckee 5510 04:57:27,100 --> 04:57:29,100 has been considering so we added it for 5511 04:57:29,100 --> 04:57:33,100 your board to contemplate on. This would 5512 04:57:33,100 --> 04:57:36,100 limit new str being rented for certain 5513 04:57:36,100 --> 04:57:38,100 period of time. It can be 6, could be 12 5514 04:57:38,100 --> 04:57:41,100 months but the idea is that folks may 5515 04:57:41,100 --> 04:57:44,601 reconsider purchasing homes for the sole 5516 04:57:45,100 --> 04:57:48,100 purpose of renting it if they dont have 5517 04:57:48,100 --> 04:57:50,100 the capital to buy the house and sit on it 5518 04:57:50,100 --> 04:57:53,100 for 6 or 12 months with that waiting 5519 04:57:53,100 --> 04:57:57,201 period. Really it would be all extension 5520 04:57:58,100 --> 04:58:01,100 of moratorium so you can apply for a 5521 04:58:01,100 --> 04:58:03,100 permit but have to wait. Again, this is 5522 04:58:03,100 --> 04:58:04,100 something that is being considered in the 5523 04:58:04,100 --> 04:58:07,100 region so we throw it in here for 5524 04:58:07,100 --> 04:58:10,601 discussion. The next item is special 5525 04:58:11,100 --> 04:58:14,100 provisions for primary ownership and 5526 04:58:14,100 --> 04:58:18,100 hosted str so we know we got locals in the 5527 04:58:18,100 --> 04:58:20,100 community that rent their units. They may 5528 04:58:20,100 --> 04:58:24,100 rent to a room or two may rent their unit 5529 04:58:24,100 --> 04:58:27,100 while on vacation. We included this 5530 04:58:27,100 --> 04:58:29,100 because this is a response to comments we 5531 04:58:29,100 --> 04:58:32,100 heard from the community about how renting 5532 04:58:32,100 --> 04:58:34,100 short-term is a way to locals to off set 5533 04:58:34,100 --> 04:58:37,100 or supplement their mortgage. Again, we 5534 04:58:37,100 --> 04:58:41,801 know this is about 3 percent of our str 5535 04:58:43,100 --> 04:58:46,100 but your board could consider special 5536 04:58:46,100 --> 04:58:48,100 provisions for local. If you establish or 5537 04:58:48,100 --> 04:58:52,100 impose a cap on str these folks can be 5538 04:58:52,100 --> 04:58:56,100 exempt from that cap. Moving on the last 5539 04:58:56,100 --> 04:58:59,100 one on the list is density or geo spatial 5540 04:58:59,100 --> 04:59:02,100 limitations. Those are the provisions 5541 04:59:02,100 --> 04:59:05,100 that limit str per neighborhood. Some 5542 04:59:05,100 --> 04:59:08,100 folks explain them as clustering 5543 04:59:09,100 --> 04:59:11,100 provisions where you might have a str 5544 04:59:11,100 --> 04:59:13,100 every 500 feet for example. We do believe 5545 04:59:13,100 --> 04:59:15,100 this is a tool that may help address 5546 04:59:15,100 --> 04:59:17,100 concerns regarding neighborhood 5547 04:59:17,100 --> 04:59:19,401 compatibility and integrity. Again, 5548 04:59:21,100 --> 04:59:25,100 essentially limiting how many you can have 5549 04:59:25,100 --> 04:59:28,100 per neighborhood so you don't is a row of 5550 04:59:28,100 --> 04:59:32,801 str on any street. We believe this option 5551 04:59:35,100 --> 04:59:39,100 would require a high demand in terms of 5552 04:59:39,100 --> 04:59:40,100 staff resources needs to implement 5553 04:59:40,100 --> 04:59:43,100 something like this. It is labor 5554 04:59:43,100 --> 04:59:46,100 intensive. We also think there are 5555 04:59:46,100 --> 04:59:48,100 impacts that need to be analyzed so we 5556 04:59:48,100 --> 04:59:50,100 think that with this option we need a 5557 04:59:50,100 --> 04:59:53,100 little more time to analyze this option 5558 04:59:53,100 --> 04:59:56,100 and thoroughly vet it before the community 5559 04:59:56,100 --> 04:59:58,100 and your board so for those reasons it 5560 04:59:58,100 --> 04:59:59,100 isn't something that we are bringing 5561 04:59:59,100 --> 05:00:01,100 forward at this time for your board's 5562 05:00:01,100 --> 05:00:03,100 consideration but it is something if your 5563 05:00:03,100 --> 05:00:06,100 board desires we can bring forward at a 5564 05:00:06,100 --> 05:00:11,100 later date. So, as I stated earlier we do 5565 05:00:11,100 --> 05:00:14,100 continue our team continues to track areas 5566 05:00:14,100 --> 05:00:16,100 of the code that are problematic that we 5567 05:00:16,100 --> 05:00:20,100 believe are not effective or need to be 5568 05:00:20,100 --> 05:00:23,100 revisited or cleaned up so this is a list 5569 05:00:23,100 --> 05:00:26,100 of the items. We were before your board 5570 05:00:26,100 --> 05:00:28,100 last march with a cleanup effort so these 5571 05:00:28,100 --> 05:00:31,100 items I will talk about now are really in 5572 05:00:31,100 --> 05:00:35,100 that same spirit of cleaning it up. The 5573 05:00:35,100 --> 05:00:38,100 first is to propose to eliminate the 5574 05:00:38,100 --> 05:00:41,100 exemption provisions or modify them in the 5575 05:00:41,100 --> 05:00:44,601 ordinance. The ordinance apply to all 5576 05:00:45,100 --> 05:00:47,100 residential properties. Not apply to 5577 05:00:47,100 --> 05:00:51,100 hotel motel condo tells or time shares. 5578 05:00:51,100 --> 05:00:55,801 that function like hotel we say they would 5579 05:00:56,100 --> 05:00:58,100 be not subject to the ordinance but if 5580 05:00:58,100 --> 05:01:01,601 they are functioning as residential use 5581 05:01:04,100 --> 05:01:06,100 they are subject are. This is a gray area 5582 05:01:06,100 --> 05:01:09,100 in the code. It is hard for staff to 5583 05:01:09,100 --> 05:01:11,100 implement it. There is a lot of back and 5584 05:01:11,100 --> 05:01:14,100 forth with property owners a lot time 5585 05:01:14,100 --> 05:01:16,100 spent reviewing and a lot of folks that I 5586 05:01:16,100 --> 05:01:20,100 think think they are exempt and don't 5587 05:01:20,100 --> 05:01:22,100 request exemption and operating without a 5588 05:01:22,100 --> 05:01:25,100 permit so we know have about 40 percent of 5589 05:01:25,100 --> 05:01:28,100 our units that either think they are 5590 05:01:28,100 --> 05:01:31,601 exempt or come for exemption request. 5591 05:01:34,100 --> 05:01:38,201 because of that then they are also 5592 05:01:39,100 --> 05:01:41,100 not-don't have the benefit of inspection 5593 05:01:41,100 --> 05:01:43,100 so not getting the fire life safety 5594 05:01:43,100 --> 05:01:46,100 inspections and also not being enforced. 5595 05:01:46,100 --> 05:01:49,100 so, we believe that this eliminating the 5596 05:01:49,100 --> 05:01:51,100 exemptions would help provide consistency 5597 05:01:51,100 --> 05:01:54,100 in permitting and inspections and 5598 05:01:55,100 --> 05:01:57,100 enforcement. The next item on the list is 5599 05:01:57,100 --> 05:01:59,100 to add or increase fire protection 5600 05:01:59,100 --> 05:02:02,100 standards. This proposing to require fire 5601 05:02:02,100 --> 05:02:04,100 inspections at the time of permit 5602 05:02:04,100 --> 05:02:06,401 application. Currently applicants have 3 5603 05:02:07,100 --> 05:02:09,100 to 5 years to get inspections so for the 5604 05:02:09,100 --> 05:02:12,601 privately managed str they have 3 years 5605 05:02:14,100 --> 05:02:17,601 and professionals have 5 years. What we 5606 05:02:19,100 --> 05:02:22,100 are finding is that we are two years into 5607 05:02:22,100 --> 05:02:24,100 the program. This is our second permit 5608 05:02:24,100 --> 05:02:27,100 cycle and we have only about 8 percent of 5609 05:02:27,100 --> 05:02:30,601 properties that have been inspected have 5610 05:02:31,100 --> 05:02:32,100 had the fire inspection. What we know is 5611 05:02:32,100 --> 05:02:35,100 the current model is really not working 5612 05:02:35,100 --> 05:02:38,100 and so we are proposing to change that. 5613 05:02:38,100 --> 05:02:40,100 we are also requiring more frequent fire 5614 05:02:40,100 --> 05:02:44,100 inspections so currently we have a system 5615 05:02:44,100 --> 05:02:47,100 where just mentioned every 3 years the 5616 05:02:47,100 --> 05:02:50,100 private managed folks get inspections and 5617 05:02:50,100 --> 05:02:53,100 are or supposed to and then every 5 years 5618 05:02:53,100 --> 05:02:56,100 the profession al folks are and the burden 5619 05:02:56,100 --> 05:02:58,100 is on the applicant to initiate the 5620 05:02:58,100 --> 05:03:01,100 inspections. What we are proposing is 1 5621 05:03:01,100 --> 05:03:04,100 and 3 your model. 1 year for the 5622 05:03:04,100 --> 05:03:06,100 privately managed folks and 3 for 5623 05:03:06,100 --> 05:03:09,100 professionals. Also proposing a rolling 5624 05:03:09,100 --> 05:03:12,100 annual permit model, so changing the 5625 05:03:12,100 --> 05:03:14,100 permitting to rolling model instead of 5626 05:03:14,100 --> 05:03:16,100 permits that expire at the same time 5627 05:03:16,100 --> 05:03:19,100 annually. We believe this would allow 5628 05:03:19,100 --> 05:03:23,100 applicants would help would be in support 5629 05:03:23,100 --> 05:03:26,100 of this because they come any time of the 5630 05:03:26,100 --> 05:03:29,100 year I and get a permit and run the full 5631 05:03:29,100 --> 05:03:31,100 year instead of expiring every march. 5632 05:03:31,100 --> 05:03:33,100 this would help our staff to spread out 5633 05:03:33,100 --> 05:03:36,601 the processing of applications, lesson the 5634 05:03:37,100 --> 05:03:39,100 demand and resource need at one time every 5635 05:03:39,100 --> 05:03:43,801 year. The same is true for the fire 5636 05:03:44,100 --> 05:03:46,100 district. This allows them to continually 5637 05:03:46,100 --> 05:03:49,100 inspect properties if your board elects to 5638 05:03:49,100 --> 05:03:51,100 go with a model where fire inspections are 5639 05:03:51,100 --> 05:03:53,100 required a that time of permit 5640 05:03:53,100 --> 05:03:55,100 application, the fire districts will have 5641 05:03:55,100 --> 05:03:58,100 to do those inspections with every 5642 05:03:58,100 --> 05:03:59,100 application but if you rolled it out 5643 05:03:59,100 --> 05:04:01,100 through the year it is a little more 5644 05:04:01,100 --> 05:04:03,100 manageable. Talking with the fire 5645 05:04:03,100 --> 05:04:06,100 districts they did express they are open 5646 05:04:06,100 --> 05:04:08,100 to the model. I will say they are 5647 05:04:08,100 --> 05:04:12,100 currently concerned with how few str units 5648 05:04:12,100 --> 05:04:15,601 have been inspected and worried about 5649 05:04:16,100 --> 05:04:19,100 getting big influx within the next year in 5650 05:04:19,100 --> 05:04:21,100 terms of numbers of units they need to 5651 05:04:21,100 --> 05:04:24,100 inspect. We have talked to the fire 5652 05:04:24,100 --> 05:04:26,100 districts about the capacity to handle the 5653 05:04:26,100 --> 05:04:28,100 type of inspection load. We need to have 5654 05:04:28,100 --> 05:04:31,100 further discussion there. We have talked 5655 05:04:31,100 --> 05:04:35,100 about the county could have a inhouse 5656 05:04:35,100 --> 05:04:39,100 inspector to help with districts that need 5657 05:04:39,100 --> 05:04:41,100 capacity do inspections. Moving on to the 5658 05:04:41,100 --> 05:04:44,100 the stricter nuisance standards. We 5659 05:04:45,100 --> 05:04:48,100 proposing to strengthen noise and 5660 05:04:48,100 --> 05:04:51,100 occupancy limits. The occupancy standards 5661 05:04:51,100 --> 05:04:53,100 to bring those in line with industry 5662 05:04:53,100 --> 05:04:56,601 standard which is 1.5 times the nightly 5663 05:04:57,100 --> 05:05:00,100 occupancy so if you have a unit that has 5664 05:05:00,100 --> 05:05:04,100 an occupancy limit of 8 you can have 1.5 5665 05:05:04,100 --> 05:05:08,201 times that number for day time occupancy. 5666 05:05:11,100 --> 05:05:13,100 the idea is limit parties. There is 5667 05:05:13,100 --> 05:05:15,100 provision in the code that allows to get a 5668 05:05:15,100 --> 05:05:18,601 special use permit. Special event permit 5669 05:05:19,100 --> 05:05:20,100 for str that is through the planning 5670 05:05:20,100 --> 05:05:23,100 department, so if you were hosting a 5671 05:05:23,100 --> 05:05:25,100 larger party there is a avenue for folks 5672 05:05:25,100 --> 05:05:29,100 to do that. And then for parking we would 5673 05:05:29,100 --> 05:05:32,100 require parking stall counts to be posted 5674 05:05:32,100 --> 05:05:34,100 in the advertisement so folks know what 5675 05:05:34,100 --> 05:05:37,100 the constraints are on a site for parking 5676 05:05:37,100 --> 05:05:40,100 and are for noise propose to increase 5677 05:05:40,100 --> 05:05:42,100 quite hours and then prohibit outdoor 5678 05:05:42,100 --> 05:05:46,100 amplified sound. Moving on to the next 5679 05:05:46,100 --> 05:05:49,601 one increasing str unit postings requiring 5680 05:05:50,100 --> 05:05:52,100 posting in common places inside the unit 5681 05:05:52,100 --> 05:05:55,100 plus each additional bedroom and outside 5682 05:05:55,100 --> 05:05:58,100 on either a [inaudible comments] or a 5683 05:05:58,100 --> 05:06:00,100 window and it would require the permit 5684 05:06:00,100 --> 05:06:03,100 number general information about the 5685 05:06:04,100 --> 05:06:06,100 operational stander, warnings about red 5686 05:06:06,100 --> 05:06:09,100 flag days, and again this is really 5687 05:06:09,100 --> 05:06:11,100 industry standard. It would also have the 5688 05:06:11,100 --> 05:06:13,100 str hot line and provide a way for folks 5689 05:06:13,100 --> 05:06:16,100 to understand this is a str unit and know 5690 05:06:16,100 --> 05:06:19,100 where to call if there are issues. 5691 05:06:19,100 --> 05:06:22,601 limiting 1 per parcel apply to multifamily 5692 05:06:23,100 --> 05:06:26,100 and single family and not condo units. We 5693 05:06:26,100 --> 05:06:28,100 believe this alignment with the state 5694 05:06:28,100 --> 05:06:32,100 housing goal if there are two units on a 5695 05:06:32,100 --> 05:06:36,100 property a d ru intended for to be 5696 05:06:36,100 --> 05:06:39,100 available for housing. The other logic 5697 05:06:39,100 --> 05:06:41,100 behind this is it provides for on site 5698 05:06:41,100 --> 05:06:43,100 management so if you have two units on a 5699 05:06:43,100 --> 05:06:45,100 property someone could live there and 5700 05:06:45,100 --> 05:06:48,100 provide on site management. We'll point 5701 05:06:48,100 --> 05:06:52,100 out we did take a look, we currently have 5702 05:06:52,100 --> 05:06:56,201 four parcels now, so so 4 parcels with 5703 05:06:59,100 --> 05:07:01,100 active permits 2 permits on a property. 5704 05:07:01,100 --> 05:07:05,100 three of those are duplexes. Not a lot of 5705 05:07:05,100 --> 05:07:07,100 units right now where we see two permits 5706 05:07:07,100 --> 05:07:11,100 on one property. The next on the list 5707 05:07:11,100 --> 05:07:15,100 here is increased penalty fines. We are 5708 05:07:15,100 --> 05:07:17,100 prosing to bring up the fines to industry 5709 05:07:17,100 --> 05:07:20,601 standard in line with senate bill $60, 5710 05:07:21,100 --> 05:07:23,100 which sets maximum fines for str so we 5711 05:07:23,100 --> 05:07:26,601 would propose- first under the current 5712 05:07:27,100 --> 05:07:30,100 model we got escalating structure from 5713 05:07:30,100 --> 05:07:34,100 $500 fine that goes to a thousand and we 5714 05:07:34,100 --> 05:07:38,100 propose to change that from start at $1500 5715 05:07:38,100 --> 05:07:42,100 go to $3 thousand and go to $5 thousand so 5716 05:07:42,100 --> 05:07:44,100 escalates up. Also proposing just to 5717 05:07:44,100 --> 05:07:46,100 change this standard so you got different 5718 05:07:46,100 --> 05:07:49,100 fines for operational standards and 5719 05:07:50,100 --> 05:07:52,100 different fine structure for operating 5720 05:07:52,100 --> 05:07:56,100 without a permit, so a little different 5721 05:07:56,100 --> 05:07:59,100 fining structure for those two violations. 5722 05:07:59,100 --> 05:08:02,100 modified appeal process. Currently the 5723 05:08:03,100 --> 05:08:07,201 penalties are determined by as outlined in 5724 05:08:08,100 --> 05:08:10,100 the code determined by administrative 5725 05:08:10,100 --> 05:08:12,100 hearing office. Those can be appealed to 5726 05:08:12,100 --> 05:08:17,100 the board. We are just up for the board's 5727 05:08:17,100 --> 05:08:19,100 consideration is to change that and 5728 05:08:19,100 --> 05:08:23,201 perhaps have the penalty determined by the 5729 05:08:24,100 --> 05:08:26,100 sedra director and appeal could go to the 5730 05:08:26,100 --> 05:08:28,100 administrative hearing office and stop 5731 05:08:28,100 --> 05:08:30,100 there if your board desires to make that 5732 05:08:30,100 --> 05:08:34,801 change. Really quick I will touch on some 5733 05:08:35,100 --> 05:08:39,100 work that ben actually has been doing on 5734 05:08:39,100 --> 05:08:42,100 the permit system and really the idea here 5735 05:08:42,100 --> 05:08:45,100 is to align with str permit system with a 5736 05:08:45,100 --> 05:08:48,100 tot certificate system. So, we have 5737 05:08:48,100 --> 05:08:51,100 partnered with deckhard technologies for 5738 05:08:51,100 --> 05:08:53,100 software integration, so as part of this 5739 05:08:53,100 --> 05:08:55,100 update we are looking to improve the 5740 05:08:55,100 --> 05:08:58,100 permit system and are align these two 5741 05:08:58,100 --> 05:09:00,100 processes. Currently we have two separate 5742 05:09:00,100 --> 05:09:04,100 systems so it causes-I mentioned to the 5743 05:09:04,100 --> 05:09:08,801 board. We have a lot of confusion delay 5744 05:09:09,100 --> 05:09:12,100 in permits and inefficiency tracking 5745 05:09:14,100 --> 05:09:17,100 metric. Different data sets and st. Is a 5746 05:09:17,100 --> 05:09:20,100 challenge to track these as you can see in 5747 05:09:20,100 --> 05:09:23,100 the report indicates that. It was hard to 5748 05:09:23,100 --> 05:09:25,100 fully understand the inventory without 5749 05:09:25,100 --> 05:09:27,100 studying it so we believe that partners 5750 05:09:27,100 --> 05:09:29,100 with deckard and really aligning these two 5751 05:09:29,100 --> 05:09:33,100 processes will help us with that data. 5752 05:09:33,100 --> 05:09:37,100 pulling the data. We also think it will 5753 05:09:37,100 --> 05:09:40,100 improve the user interface that allow to 5754 05:09:40,100 --> 05:09:43,100 better serve the customers one stop shop 5755 05:09:43,100 --> 05:09:46,100 you go for the permit and get the tot at 5756 05:09:46,100 --> 05:09:49,100 the same time. It also allows better 5757 05:09:49,100 --> 05:09:52,100 tracking. Also allows to track online 5758 05:09:52,100 --> 05:09:54,100 listings, fire inspection sign off and 5759 05:09:54,100 --> 05:09:57,100 just maintain a single database. 5760 05:09:57,100 --> 05:09:59,100 essentially this will streamline we 5761 05:09:59,100 --> 05:10:01,100 believe the permit process and help us 5762 05:10:01,100 --> 05:10:04,100 with reporting and enforcement. So, 5763 05:10:05,100 --> 05:10:07,100 that's all I have on that. I will toss it 5764 05:10:07,100 --> 05:10:09,100 to stephanie to wrap up. 5765 05:10:09,100 --> 05:10:11,100 >> I'll close us out here. Just remind 5766 05:10:11,100 --> 05:10:13,100 your board we are not asking for action 5767 05:10:13,100 --> 05:10:16,100 today. This is just to give a update of 5768 05:10:16,100 --> 05:10:17,100 everything we have been working on since 5769 05:10:17,100 --> 05:10:20,100 the moratorium and working up towards the 5770 05:10:20,100 --> 05:10:23,601 deadline of the moratorium.

I like to hear feedback and staff 5970 05:20:36,100 --> 05:20:39,100 to look at the suspensions and there's I 5971 05:20:39,100 --> 05:20:43,201 think santa cruz, and el dorado county. 5972 05:20:45,100 --> 05:20:48,601 cresta butte and jackson wyoming that 5973 05:20:50,100 --> 05:20:53,601 proposed 2 up to 5 year suspension because 5974 05:20:55,100 --> 05:20:57,100 I think the discussion is getting a lot of 5975 05:20:57,100 --> 05:21:00,100 interest in people finding compliance and 5976 05:21:00,100 --> 05:21:02,100 being in compliance because they don't 5977 05:21:02,100 --> 05:21:03,100 want to lose their permit so I urge that 5978 05:21:03,100 --> 05:21:07,100 and us to continue to track that part of 5979 05:21:07,100 --> 05:21:09,100 our housing stock. And then another 5980 05:21:09,100 --> 05:21:13,801 comment for our public to think about is 5981 05:21:14,100 --> 05:21:18,100 I'm-I have always been open to looking at 5982 05:21:18,100 --> 05:21:23,100 what's our cap now and how many could we 5983 05:21:23,100 --> 05:21:27,100 expand that to insure turnover so we start 5984 05:21:27,100 --> 05:21:30,100 to insure that there is turnover along 5985 05:21:30,100 --> 05:21:34,100 with that you must use that permit. So, 5986 05:21:34,100 --> 05:21:37,100 there is minimum number of nights using it 5987 05:21:37,100 --> 05:21:39,100 you are not sitting on the permit keeping 5988 05:21:39,100 --> 05:21:41,100 somebody else from having the opportunity 5989 05:21:41,100 --> 05:21:44,100 while you for more then is that a 1 year 5990 05:21:44,100 --> 05:21:47,100 or 2 year, I like to hear how other 5991 05:21:47,100 --> 05:21:48,100 jurisdictions have dealt with that so we 5992 05:21:48,100 --> 05:21:51,100 insure turn over of these if there is a 5993 05:21:51,100 --> 05:21:54,100 cap and so I love to hear public comment 5994 05:21:54,100 --> 05:21:58,201 on that. And I'm not particularly in 5995 05:22:01,100 --> 05:22:03,100 favor of the waiting period but that is 5996 05:22:03,100 --> 05:22:06,100 because I think it will be hard to get 5997 05:22:06,100 --> 05:22:08,100 there. I would be more in favor of trying 5998 05:22:08,100 --> 05:22:11,100 to find a cap that maybe is adjusted 5999 05:22:11,100 --> 05:22:14,100 higher but looks at the numbers it is hard 6000 05:22:14,100 --> 05:22:18,201 to judge. If we have 2500 permitted but 5 6001 05:22:19,100 --> 05:22:21,100 thousand tot certificates what is the 6002 05:22:21,100 --> 05:22:23,100 right number? Have none of the 5 thousand 6003 05:22:23,100 --> 05:22:26,100 come forward to try to get permits? 6004 05:22:26,100 --> 05:22:28,100 >> probably half are exempt. 6005 05:22:28,100 --> 05:22:29,100 >> okay. 6006 05:22:29,100 --> 05:22:31,100 >> exactly. Just explain the difference. 6007 05:22:31,100 --> 05:22:35,801 the 2500 are the permits we have for str. 6008 05:22:36,100 --> 05:22:39,100 if you jump to that-let me get this slide 6009 05:22:39,100 --> 05:22:41,100 back up here. If you jump to the next 6010 05:22:41,100 --> 05:22:45,201 tier in the slide, those are the 4420. 6011 05:22:47,100 --> 05:22:51,201 those are incompass the str, the 2500 plus 6012 05:22:53,100 --> 05:22:55,401 potential exemptions so property- 6013 05:22:57,100 --> 05:22:59,100 >> 28 percent of the housing market and 6014 05:22:59,100 --> 05:23:01,100 then when we go to the 38 percent what are 6015 05:23:01,100 --> 05:23:02,100 those? 6016 05:23:02,100 --> 05:23:06,100 >> those are tot certificates. So all the 6017 05:23:06,100 --> 05:23:08,100 certificates whether they are remitting 6018 05:23:08,100 --> 05:23:12,801 tot so active or have a tot certificate 6019 05:23:13,100 --> 05:23:15,100 and not active. They can have a 6020 05:23:15,100 --> 05:23:18,100 certificate and not rent not remit tot but 6021 05:23:18,100 --> 05:23:20,100 they have the certificate so that last bar 6022 05:23:20,100 --> 05:23:24,100 shows you the potential that if all of 6023 05:23:24,100 --> 05:23:28,100 those 5800 were to want to rent they can 6024 05:23:28,100 --> 05:23:31,100 turn on tomorrow and rent. That is the 6025 05:23:31,100 --> 05:23:34,601 potential with those tot certificates. I 6026 05:23:35,100 --> 05:23:37,100 dont know if we have dug into whether all 6027 05:23:37,100 --> 05:23:40,100 those are exempt or whether they would 6028 05:23:40,100 --> 05:23:44,801 need a str but the differential between it 6029 05:23:45,100 --> 05:23:47,100 last 2 are whether they are actively 6030 05:23:47,100 --> 05:23:48,100 renting or not. 6031 05:23:48,100 --> 05:23:50,100 >> if we were to set a number that 6032 05:23:50,100 --> 05:23:53,100 included went to the middle column there, 6033 05:23:53,100 --> 05:23:56,100 4420, and added a buffer right now I 6034 05:23:56,100 --> 05:23:58,100 understand there is about 75 on a wait 6035 05:23:58,100 --> 05:24:00,100 list? 6036 05:24:00,100 --> 05:24:01,100 >> yeah, 77. 6037 05:24:01,100 --> 05:24:05,100 >> 77 on a wait list. And so that might 6038 05:24:05,100 --> 05:24:07,100 be something for the board to consider 6039 05:24:07,100 --> 05:24:09,100 because I do hear from a lot of people 6040 05:24:09,100 --> 05:24:13,100 that want the opportunity, caught in the 6041 05:24:13,100 --> 05:24:15,100 middle. Didn't understand they needed a 6042 05:24:15,100 --> 05:24:19,100 permit. I want to include all those 6043 05:24:19,100 --> 05:24:22,100 exempted that get permitted because it was 6044 05:24:22,100 --> 05:24:24,100 their issue they are exempted and say they 6045 05:24:24,100 --> 05:24:28,801 are not. Should we have some level to 6046 05:24:30,100 --> 05:24:34,801 allow people to see that turnover and then 6047 05:24:35,100 --> 05:24:37,100 finally I want it to be in an adaptive 6048 05:24:37,100 --> 05:24:39,100 program so we could track how we are 6049 05:24:39,100 --> 05:24:42,100 delivering on housing. Are we addressing 6050 05:24:42,100 --> 05:24:45,100 this crisis in our community that we can 6051 05:24:45,100 --> 05:24:48,100 serve visitors? We hear e-mails about we 6052 05:24:48,100 --> 05:24:50,100 can rent but if there is no one to serve 6053 05:24:50,100 --> 05:24:54,801 food or wash dishes or clean or paint 6054 05:24:56,100 --> 05:24:58,100 condos we can't serve these people and 6055 05:24:58,100 --> 05:25:00,100 there is frustration and anger that 6056 05:25:00,100 --> 05:25:03,100 creates a division I have never seen in 40 6057 05:25:03,100 --> 05:25:05,100 years living there. I like adaptive 6058 05:25:05,100 --> 05:25:08,100 management and as painful as it is to go 6059 05:25:08,100 --> 05:25:10,100 through this, it seems like there should 6060 05:25:10,100 --> 05:25:14,100 be a formula as we deliver housing or see 6061 05:25:14,100 --> 05:25:17,100 housing changes we adjust whatever cap 6062 05:25:17,100 --> 05:25:19,100 numbers are set up and we learn as we go 6063 05:25:19,100 --> 05:25:23,100 because we have been learning every step 6064 05:25:23,100 --> 05:25:25,100 of the way since we started this. Anyway, 6065 05:25:25,100 --> 05:25:27,100 I wanted to get that out mr. Chair because 6066 05:25:27,100 --> 05:25:30,100 the public may have-I love to hear where 6067 05:25:30,100 --> 05:25:32,100 my colleagues feel but also where the 6068 05:25:32,100 --> 05:25:35,100 public weighs in. I have been asking some 6069 05:25:35,100 --> 05:25:37,100 of the properties owners who contacted me 6070 05:25:37,100 --> 05:25:41,100 how many more? What is the tolerance, 50 6071 05:25:41,100 --> 05:25:43,401 percent short-term rental, 80 percent? 6072 05:25:45,100 --> 05:25:47,100 where the balancing act to deliver on 6073 05:25:47,100 --> 05:25:49,401 services versus allowing short-term 6074 05:25:50,100 --> 05:25:53,100 rentals? That's the balance I'm 6075 05:25:53,100 --> 05:25:56,100 struggling with. Love to hear feedback on 6076 05:25:56,100 --> 05:25:57,100 that. 6077 05:25:57,100 --> 05:25:59,100 >> jim then suzanne. 6078 05:26:00,100 --> 05:26:04,100 >> well, thank you for all the hard work 6079 05:26:04,100 --> 05:26:06,100 on this.

Let's hope we get it right. 6110 05:27:34,100 --> 05:27:35,100 >> suzanne. 6111 05:27:35,100 --> 05:27:38,601 >> yes, hi. Thanks for the presentation. 6112 05:27:39,100 --> 05:27:41,100 very good. I wanted to mention a couple 6113 05:27:41,100 --> 05:27:45,100 of things that I know I did the other day 6114 05:27:45,100 --> 05:27:49,100 at our briefing, but there was a finding 6115 05:27:49,100 --> 05:27:53,100 here by your team you hired that shows 6116 05:27:53,100 --> 05:27:55,100 where there is a move towards increase 6117 05:27:55,100 --> 05:27:59,801 investor activity, and so for me, I know 6118 05:28:01,100 --> 05:28:04,100 concerns in the community are your that a 6119 05:28:04,100 --> 05:28:08,100 lot of those short-term rentals may gobble 6120 05:28:08,100 --> 05:28:12,100 up your housing availability. And so it 6121 05:28:12,100 --> 05:28:15,100 is a thought that maybe there's some way 6122 05:28:15,100 --> 05:28:18,100 of limiting those that can be purchased 6123 05:28:18,100 --> 05:28:22,100 for investment only. I know I understand 6124 05:28:22,100 --> 05:28:24,100 people go up and buy a second house 6125 05:28:24,100 --> 05:28:27,100 because they want to live there eventually 6126 05:28:27,100 --> 05:28:31,801 retire and move in or whatever, but for 6127 05:28:32,100 --> 05:28:35,100 investors to move in and think this is a 6128 05:28:35,100 --> 05:28:37,100 great opportunity buy up everything there 6129 05:28:37,100 --> 05:28:40,100 you are really going to be in a hurt for 6130 05:28:40,100 --> 05:28:44,201 availability of housing. I express my r 6131 05:28:51,100 --> 05:28:55,100 by the 2 tier permitting fees. I think 6132 05:28:55,100 --> 05:28:58,100 everybody should be on the same footage. 6133 05:28:58,100 --> 05:29:00,100 I think that in addition to if you have 6134 05:29:00,100 --> 05:29:03,100 people that violate that maybe there some 6135 05:29:03,100 --> 05:29:06,100 sort of step where you violate once okay, 6136 05:29:06,100 --> 05:29:10,100 you get a warning, maybe a fine but step 2 6137 05:29:10,100 --> 05:29:13,100 you get a warning and fine but now your 6138 05:29:13,100 --> 05:29:16,100 permitting fees are going up. And have a 6139 05:29:16,100 --> 05:29:18,100 scaled level for those permitting fees 6140 05:29:18,100 --> 05:29:22,100 because your violators should pay more in 6141 05:29:22,100 --> 05:29:25,100 permitting fees. I don't think it should 6142 05:29:25,100 --> 05:29:27,100 be if you got this person owns a house and 6143 05:29:27,100 --> 05:29:31,100 they have a property manager and he owns a 6144 05:29:31,100 --> 05:29:33,100 house and manage themselves to say that 6145 05:29:33,100 --> 05:29:36,100 one is going to be better then the other 6146 05:29:36,100 --> 05:29:38,100 we already experienced one of the property 6147 05:29:38,100 --> 05:29:42,100 management people did not adhere to your 6148 05:29:42,100 --> 05:29:45,100 regulations several months back, remember? 6149 05:29:46,100 --> 05:29:49,100 so, they are not always perfect and I 6150 05:29:49,100 --> 05:29:52,100 understand that regular privately owned 6151 05:29:53,100 --> 05:29:56,100 property maybe are not perfect either but 6152 05:29:56,100 --> 05:30:00,100 I don't like the two tier permitting fee. 6153 05:30:00,100 --> 05:30:04,201 curious about the-I don't really like the 6154 05:30:05,100 --> 05:30:08,100 2 tier scheduled for fire inspections 6155 05:30:08,100 --> 05:30:11,100 either. The privately owned versus 6156 05:30:12,100 --> 05:30:16,100 property managed because I just think fire 6157 05:30:16,100 --> 05:30:19,100 inspections should be extremely important 6158 05:30:19,100 --> 05:30:21,100 and make sure everybody has everything 6159 05:30:21,100 --> 05:30:24,601 that they need whether inside fire 6160 05:30:26,100 --> 05:30:29,100 hazards, outside fire hazard, smoke 6161 05:30:31,100 --> 05:30:34,100 detectors and carbon monoxide detectors 6162 05:30:34,100 --> 05:30:38,100 and all that stuff. So, I just think that 6163 05:30:38,100 --> 05:30:41,100 everybody should be on the same schedule. 6164 05:30:41,100 --> 05:30:43,100 maybe every other year or something 6165 05:30:43,100 --> 05:30:46,100 because how can you say this property 6166 05:30:46,100 --> 05:30:48,100 doesn't need to be inspected for fire for 6167 05:30:48,100 --> 05:30:52,100 every 3 or so years but this one needs to 6168 05:30:52,100 --> 05:30:54,100 be inspected every year? That doesn't 6169 05:30:54,100 --> 05:30:58,801 seem equitable to me. I then on your 6170 05:31:00,100 --> 05:31:01,100 postings I don't know you may already do 6171 05:31:01,100 --> 05:31:04,100 this, but on your postings I'm wondering 6172 05:31:04,100 --> 05:31:06,100 do you have all the numbers listed for 6173 05:31:06,100 --> 05:31:09,601 fire, police complaints your hot line 6174 05:31:10,100 --> 05:31:12,100 etcetera because you have to have it 6175 05:31:12,100 --> 05:31:15,100 posted on the inside, posted on outside 6176 05:31:15,100 --> 05:31:18,100 because say someone maybe there is smoke 6177 05:31:18,100 --> 05:31:22,100 coming from the place and who ever is 6178 05:31:22,100 --> 05:31:24,100 renting are skiing or at the lake and the 6179 05:31:24,100 --> 05:31:27,100 neighbor sees it and if they go to the 6180 05:31:27,100 --> 05:31:28,100 house they see the posting and find the 6181 05:31:28,100 --> 05:31:31,100 numbers they could call. Easy they don't 6182 05:31:31,100 --> 05:31:33,100 have to go home google it and do whatever 6183 05:31:33,100 --> 05:31:37,801 and the same time your renters have it 6184 05:31:39,100 --> 05:31:43,801 also. You may already do that. And we 6185 05:31:44,100 --> 05:31:47,601 talked earlier too about penalties and 6186 05:31:48,100 --> 05:31:52,100 fines, agree they need to have teeth. It 6187 05:31:52,100 --> 05:31:54,100 has to be something whether you have a 6188 05:31:54,100 --> 05:31:57,601 tiered fine and fees for complaints 6189 05:32:00,100 --> 05:32:02,100 etcetera that maybe eventually at some 6190 05:32:02,100 --> 05:32:05,100 point you have revocations suspension that 6191 05:32:05,100 --> 05:32:10,100 sort of thing in your tool box as well. 6192 05:32:10,100 --> 05:32:12,100 do the suspensions work because I mean you 6193 05:32:12,100 --> 05:32:14,100 probably get some people who are like I 6194 05:32:14,100 --> 05:32:16,100 paid a lot of money for this place, I 6195 05:32:16,100 --> 05:32:19,100 don't care if they suspend my permit I 6196 05:32:19,100 --> 05:32:21,100 will still rent it. Do you get much of 6197 05:32:21,100 --> 05:32:22,100 that? 6198 05:32:22,100 --> 05:32:25,100 >> we have not issued suspensions to date, 6199 05:32:25,100 --> 05:32:27,100 so being a brand new program I don't know 6200 05:32:27,100 --> 05:32:29,100 I can answer that question, but there is 6201 05:32:29,100 --> 05:32:33,100 always I think there are always bad actors 6202 05:32:33,100 --> 05:32:36,100 that are renting without a permit. We 6203 05:32:36,100 --> 05:32:38,100 know that. It is possible. 6204 05:32:38,100 --> 05:32:42,201 >> yeah. And so in your rental or 6205 05:32:45,100 --> 05:32:47,100 permitting documents, do you have 6206 05:32:47,100 --> 05:32:49,100 somewhere like at the bottom of the thing 6207 05:32:49,100 --> 05:32:53,100 that says along with this completed rental 6208 05:32:53,100 --> 05:32:56,100 application includes your tot certificate 6209 05:32:57,100 --> 05:33:00,100 or this or that fire inspection, is the 6210 05:33:00,100 --> 05:33:02,100 all in that document so when somebody 6211 05:33:02,100 --> 05:33:05,100 thinks they submitted their application 6212 05:33:05,100 --> 05:33:08,100 for a permit it is on there so they can't 6213 05:33:08,100 --> 05:33:10,100 say I didn't know? 6214 05:33:10,100 --> 05:33:12,100 >>b it is and actually after the 6215 05:33:12,100 --> 05:33:14,100 experience we had earlier this year with 6216 05:33:14,100 --> 05:33:16,100 the appeal that went to your board we 6217 05:33:16,100 --> 05:33:19,100 updated that document to include 6218 05:33:20,100 --> 05:33:23,601 additional items as requested by the 6219 05:33:24,100 --> 05:33:25,100 board. 6220 05:33:25,100 --> 05:33:28,100 >> since last spring with you first 6221 05:33:28,100 --> 05:33:31,100 brought this to the board I see a lot of 6222 05:33:31,100 --> 05:33:33,100 improvement and work you have done so 6223 05:33:33,100 --> 05:33:37,100 kudos to all you for a job well done. 6224 05:33:37,100 --> 05:33:38,100 thank you. 6225 05:33:38,100 --> 05:33:39,100 >> bonnie. 6226 05:33:39,100 --> 05:33:42,601 >> thank you. Appreciate your work. So, 6227 05:33:43,100 --> 05:33:45,100 as I have been thinking about this this is 6228 05:33:45,100 --> 05:33:48,100 really challenging and supervisor holmes 6229 05:33:48,100 --> 05:33:52,100 said, cindy this is a lot of work and just 6230 05:33:52,100 --> 05:33:54,100 reading through all the documentation the 6231 05:33:54,100 --> 05:33:58,100 other day to be a good amount of time. I 6232 05:33:58,100 --> 05:33:59,100 thought about a couple things. What are 6233 05:33:59,100 --> 05:34:02,100 we really trying to address it is really 6234 05:34:02,100 --> 05:34:05,601 clear we have nuisance issues. Concerned 6235 05:34:09,100 --> 05:34:11,100 about parking and noise and we have to 6236 05:34:11,100 --> 05:34:12,100 address enforcement and talk about 6237 05:34:12,100 --> 05:34:14,100 penalties. I think that will go a long 6238 05:34:14,100 --> 05:34:17,100 way to keep the bad actors in line and 6239 05:34:17,100 --> 05:34:20,100 think we heard that from our residents a 6240 05:34:20,100 --> 05:34:22,100 lot of the feedback so I really think that 6241 05:34:22,100 --> 05:34:24,100 is important. The other reason I think 6242 05:34:24,100 --> 05:34:28,100 this has come about is because we want to 6243 05:34:28,100 --> 05:34:31,100 address workforce housing which is why I 6244 05:34:31,100 --> 05:34:35,100 asked you to know what effort we have been 6245 05:34:35,100 --> 05:34:37,100 doing to address workforce housing. There 6246 05:34:37,100 --> 05:34:40,100 is a number of efforts the opportunity to 6247 05:34:40,100 --> 05:34:43,100 do deed restrictions through our housing 6248 05:34:43,100 --> 05:34:45,100 program I think is great. The challenge 6249 05:34:45,100 --> 05:34:49,100 with this is that the properties are 6250 05:34:49,100 --> 05:34:53,100 already so high. The cost to buy in this 6251 05:34:53,100 --> 05:34:57,801 area is already so high that a normal 6252 05:34:58,100 --> 05:35:01,100 working person couldn't afford to buy a 6253 05:35:01,100 --> 05:35:05,100 home and live in the basin. And so, I 6254 05:35:05,100 --> 05:35:07,100 look at this and go, how are we going to 6255 05:35:07,100 --> 05:35:10,100 address workforce housing? I couldn't 6256 05:35:10,100 --> 05:35:13,100 afford a $900 thousand home, and I don't 6257 05:35:13,100 --> 05:35:16,100 make a lot of money. I make a decent 6258 05:35:16,100 --> 05:35:18,100 salary, I don't make a lot of money so the 6259 05:35:18,100 --> 05:35:20,100 challenge is how do we address this? I'm 6260 05:35:20,100 --> 05:35:24,100 looking at the needs for long-term or 6261 05:35:24,100 --> 05:35:27,601 long-term rentals for our ski industry, 6262 05:35:28,100 --> 05:35:30,100 for the summer time. How do we incent 6263 05:35:30,100 --> 05:35:34,100 vise that so that people would if they 6264 05:35:34,100 --> 05:35:36,100 have a second home they could rent out 6265 05:35:36,100 --> 05:35:40,100 their home for 5, 6 months at a time and 6266 05:35:40,100 --> 05:35:43,100 let's incentivize some of that. I 6267 05:35:43,100 --> 05:35:46,100 struggle with caps and saying no to the 6268 05:35:46,100 --> 05:35:48,100 free market at the same time we supera 6269 05:35:48,100 --> 05:35:51,100 issue here and how do we balance that? I 6270 05:35:51,100 --> 05:35:55,100 just think that how do we invent size what 6271 05:35:55,100 --> 05:35:57,100 we need, which is workforce housing. It 6272 05:35:57,100 --> 05:35:59,100 is probably the biggest issue and don't 6273 05:35:59,100 --> 05:36:02,100 know if just stopping short-term rentals 6274 05:36:02,100 --> 05:36:05,100 is going to accommodate that because I 6275 05:36:05,100 --> 05:36:09,100 read the study, if prices in the area 6276 05:36:09,100 --> 05:36:11,100 decline then more people might be able to 6277 05:36:11,100 --> 05:36:15,801 own a home. The real estate market those 6278 05:36:18,100 --> 05:36:22,100 prices are not going to be declining in a 6279 05:36:22,100 --> 05:36:24,100 market like that that is really valuable 6280 05:36:24,100 --> 05:36:28,100 and desired to purchase in. And then I 6281 05:36:28,100 --> 05:36:30,100 wanted to ask aaron a question because as 6282 05:36:30,100 --> 05:36:32,100 I read this it is really not clear the 6283 05:36:32,100 --> 05:36:35,601 impact that short-term rentals have on 6284 05:36:37,100 --> 05:36:39,100 long-term housing because I read the study 6285 05:36:39,100 --> 05:36:43,801 and read key findings because it is just 6286 05:36:44,100 --> 05:36:48,801 not a strong correlation. It is sort of. 6287 05:36:49,100 --> 05:36:51,100 the academic literature indicates there is 6288 05:36:51,100 --> 05:36:53,401 likely a statistically significant 6289 05:36:54,100 --> 05:36:56,100 relationship between str and availability 6290 05:36:56,100 --> 05:36:59,601 and affordable long-term housing. But it 6291 05:37:00,100 --> 05:37:04,201 goes on-none the less represent just one 6292 05:37:08,100 --> 05:37:10,401 factor influence long-term housing 6293 05:37:11,100 --> 05:37:13,100 availability and affordability and another 6294 05:37:13,100 --> 05:37:16,100 time it says it may likely contribute to 6295 05:37:16,100 --> 05:37:18,100 the increase in demand for second homes. 6296 05:37:18,100 --> 05:37:22,100 so, it is just not hard and fast. The 6297 05:37:22,100 --> 05:37:25,100 data-right aaron or not aaron, is it 6298 05:37:25,100 --> 05:37:27,100 aaron? I think that is his name. Not 6299 05:37:27,100 --> 05:37:29,100 hard and fast. It might, we don't really 6300 05:37:29,100 --> 05:37:33,100 know, covid had a impact. I think what we 6301 05:37:33,100 --> 05:37:35,100 know is we don't know the answer but do 6302 05:37:35,100 --> 05:37:38,100 know housing prices are really high and we 6303 05:37:38,100 --> 05:37:40,100 have to do something to address workforce 6304 05:37:40,100 --> 05:37:43,601 housing. If that is incentivize long-term 6305 05:37:44,100 --> 05:37:48,100 rents, maybe a cap, I'm not a big fan of 6306 05:37:48,100 --> 05:37:50,100 caps, but we really have to do something. 6307 05:37:50,100 --> 05:37:53,100 I know we are doing efforts with the 6308 05:37:53,100 --> 05:37:56,601 mountain housing council but--we just have 6309 05:38:00,100 --> 05:38:02,100 to-we need to fix it and at least start 6310 05:38:02,100 --> 05:38:05,100 providing more ways that we have workforce 6311 05:38:05,100 --> 05:38:09,100 housing. I think we got tot. We have 6312 05:38:09,100 --> 05:38:11,100 freed up tot dollars and we need to use 6313 05:38:11,100 --> 05:38:14,100 those dollars to find some ways to get 6314 05:38:14,100 --> 05:38:17,100 people housed, so we do have housing to 6315 05:38:17,100 --> 05:38:19,100 provide for all the services that are 6316 05:38:19,100 --> 05:38:21,401 needed for the area. 6317 05:38:26,100 --> 05:38:29,100 >> okay. No further comments by the board 6318 05:38:29,100 --> 05:38:33,801 at this point we'll open to the public. 6319 05:38:37,100 --> 05:38:38,100 >> waited a long time. 6320 05:38:38,100 --> 05:38:40,100 >> I have. Before I get started and not 6321 05:38:40,100 --> 05:38:42,100 going to be very long. I just want to 6322 05:38:42,100 --> 05:38:45,100 give you a little background of who is 6323 05:38:45,100 --> 05:38:48,100 speaking. I have 6 children, I live in 6324 05:38:48,100 --> 05:38:52,100 auburn but I came from a family of 6 and 6325 05:38:52,100 --> 05:38:55,100 grew up at lake tahoe. My parents moved 6326 05:38:55,100 --> 05:39:00,100 there in 1961 and my dad was a realtor and 6327 05:39:00,100 --> 05:39:04,100 developer.

The thing I didn't 6375 05:41:56,100 --> 05:41:59,100 hear is how many second home owners don't 6376 05:41:59,100 --> 05:42:02,100 use their property? How many second home 6377 05:42:02,100 --> 05:42:06,100 owners are just growing? Those people are 6378 05:42:06,100 --> 05:42:08,100 not in the stats.

If you want to 6556 05:51:32,100 --> 05:51:34,100 provide workforce housing first you need 6557 05:51:34,100 --> 05:51:37,100 jobs to have that workforce. And if you 6558 05:51:37,100 --> 05:51:41,100 rely on the existing hotels to back fill 6559 05:51:41,100 --> 05:51:44,100 the loss of str or limiting the str you 6560 05:51:44,100 --> 05:51:47,100 are going to one, lose economic viability 6561 05:51:47,100 --> 05:51:51,100 and two, jobs and equally important also 6562 05:51:51,100 --> 05:51:54,100 going to further widen the chasm between 6563 05:51:54,100 --> 05:51:57,100 the have and have nots because it is more 6564 05:51:57,100 --> 05:51:59,100 expensive to come up here whether it is to 6565 05:51:59,100 --> 05:52:03,100 str or to stay in a hotel or motel.

We urge you not 6590 05:53:28,100 --> 05:53:32,100 to go down that road and to end please 6591 05:53:32,100 --> 05:53:35,100 incentives not mandates.

We 6630 05:55:43,100 --> 05:55:46,100 are a local company. Employ local people 6631 05:55:46,100 --> 05:55:49,601 and face the same challenges with 6632 05:55:55,100 --> 05:55:56,100 [inaudible comments] I have been involve 6633 05:55:56,100 --> 05:55:59,601 would the short-term rental ordinance. We 6634 05:56:04,100 --> 05:56:06,100 have been team players and good stewards 6635 05:56:06,100 --> 05:56:10,201 of the community. I dismayed when the 6636 05:56:11,100 --> 05:56:13,100 moratorium enacted and extended as our 6637 05:56:13,100 --> 05:56:16,100 company have been good citizens and left a 6638 05:56:16,100 --> 05:56:18,100 fair amount of business on the table as a 6639 05:56:18,100 --> 05:56:21,100 result. Great presentation today by 6640 05:56:23,100 --> 05:56:27,100 staff. I am in favor of some of the items 6641 05:56:27,100 --> 05:56:29,100 presented and have ern cans about other. 6642 05:56:29,100 --> 05:56:31,100 specific to options being presented today 6643 05:56:31,100 --> 05:56:35,801 I think I heard condo hotels exempted and 6644 05:56:38,100 --> 05:56:41,601 should be exempt for several different 6645 05:56:42,100 --> 05:56:45,100 reason. I think that I heard this bad 6646 05:56:45,100 --> 05:56:47,100 actors need to be punished. Couldn't 6647 05:56:47,100 --> 05:56:49,100 agree more. I would support a more 6648 05:56:49,100 --> 05:56:52,100 aggressive approach to finding bad guest 6649 05:56:52,100 --> 05:56:55,601 owner and agent behavior. Dwelling repeat 6650 05:56:57,100 --> 05:57:00,601 offenders should have their permit revoked 6651 05:57:01,100 --> 05:57:03,100 and rental without a permit should be 6652 05:57:03,100 --> 05:57:05,100 severe so strongly support increased 6653 05:57:05,100 --> 05:57:09,801 enforcement. On caps, I would say that I 6654 05:57:10,100 --> 05:57:12,401 would prohibitively and begrudgingly 6655 05:57:16,100 --> 05:57:19,100 support a cap. I understand right or 6656 05:57:19,100 --> 05:57:20,100 wrong this is a hot button issue in the 6657 05:57:20,100 --> 05:57:24,100 community and we as a industry need to be 6658 05:57:24,100 --> 05:57:28,100 part of a compromise on this. I think we 6659 05:57:28,100 --> 05:57:30,100 would all need to agree on the data we are 6660 05:57:30,100 --> 05:57:34,201 basing these decisions on and cap number 6661 05:57:35,100 --> 05:57:37,100 so there is a lot of work to be done and 6662 05:57:37,100 --> 05:57:40,100 has to work for everyone. On the maximum 6663 05:57:40,100 --> 05:57:43,100 nights rented I don't support a 6664 05:57:43,100 --> 05:57:45,100 restriction on that. I think most owners 6665 05:57:45,100 --> 05:57:48,100 will choose to rent during the highest 6666 05:57:48,100 --> 05:57:50,100 [streaming cut out] 6667 05:57:50,100 --> 05:57:54,201 impact periods because that is when rates 6668 05:57:55,100 --> 05:57:58,100 are highest so this doesn't make a lot of 6669 05:57:58,100 --> 05:58:00,100 sense to me. I do support a minimum. I 6670 05:58:00,100 --> 05:58:02,100 don't think people who have reserved a 6671 05:58:02,100 --> 05:58:04,100 permit and don't use it should have a 6672 05:58:04,100 --> 05:58:07,100 permit. I do support different tiers for 6673 05:58:07,100 --> 05:58:10,100 professional property managers.

Through all this 6680 05:58:27,100 --> 05:58:30,601 I understand the challenge and difficulty 6681 05:58:31,100 --> 05:58:34,100 and finding a balance solution to this for 6682 05:58:34,100 --> 05:58:37,100 our community.

I started with glen martin at 6700 05:59:31,100 --> 05:59:34,601 remax property with vicky singleton and 6701 05:59:36,100 --> 05:59:40,201 renee. We managed over 250 units, and it 6702 05:59:42,100 --> 05:59:46,201 was very difficult. It wasn't very easy, 6703 05:59:48,100 --> 05:59:52,801 and I think that the problem with the 6704 05:59:54,100 --> 05:59:58,100 maintenance on a long-term rental is-I got 6705 05:59:58,100 --> 06:00:00,100 my little guy here so think I have to wait 6706 06:00:00,100 --> 06:00:04,100 and talk another time, but I wanted to say 6707 06:00:04,100 --> 06:00:07,100 that because we dont have the staff up 6708 06:00:07,100 --> 06:00:11,100 here to maintain the long-term rentals, it 6709 06:00:11,100 --> 06:00:14,100 is is a difficult proposition I think you 6710 06:00:14,100 --> 06:00:18,100 will have moving forward to try to talk 6711 06:00:18,100 --> 06:00:21,100 people into doing long-term rentals. I 6712 06:00:21,100 --> 06:00:24,100 would love myself to turn my vacation 6713 06:00:24,100 --> 06:00:28,801 rental into a long-term, but it is really 6714 06:00:32,000 --> 06:00:35,600 difficult to maintain a long-term rental. 6715 06:00:38,100 --> 06:00:40,100 so, that's the first thing that I wanted 6716 06:00:40,100 --> 06:00:45,401 to say. And, the second thing I wanted to 6717 06:00:47,100 --> 06:00:51,100 say is I'm not in favor of taking away the 6718 06:00:51,100 --> 06:00:55,100 night-the number of nights that I can 6719 06:00:55,100 --> 06:01:00,401 rent. Because I donate a lot of my funds 6720 06:01:02,100 --> 06:01:05,100 to people who can't afford rent in the 6721 06:01:05,100 --> 06:01:09,801 neighborhood. So, I say like on a nightly 6722 06:01:10,100 --> 06:01:15,401 basis if I'm able to rent out 22 nights I 6723 06:01:17,100 --> 06:01:21,100 give about 6 percent of that to charity 6724 06:01:21,100 --> 06:01:25,201 and I give another 10 percent to people 6725 06:01:27,100 --> 06:01:32,401 who need to pay rent. To have lost that 6726 06:01:33,100 --> 06:01:36,100 income would be sad because I have to tell 6727 06:01:36,100 --> 06:01:38,100 them I'm unable to do that anymore and 6728 06:01:38,100 --> 06:01:40,100 that is something I have done with my 6729 06:01:40,100 --> 06:01:45,401 nightly rent for a long time. I have a 6730 06:01:47,100 --> 06:01:52,100 little one in my lap no I'll let you go. 6731 06:01:52,100 --> 06:01:55,100 I don't have enough time to talk or pull 6732 06:01:55,100 --> 06:01:59,100 up my notes but ip wanted to thank you for 6733 06:01:59,100 --> 06:02:01,100 taking your time moving slowly with the 6734 06:02:01,100 --> 06:02:03,100 process. I think that is really important 6735 06:02:03,100 --> 06:02:06,100 is take our time and keep talking about it 6736 06:02:06,100 --> 06:02:10,100 and try to finds solutions to the 6737 06:02:10,100 --> 06:02:13,100 long-term housing market. I'm all for 6738 06:02:13,100 --> 06:02:16,100 change but I think trying to take away 6739 06:02:16,100 --> 06:02:19,601 from the short-term market might be 6740 06:02:20,100 --> 06:02:23,100 hurtful to the people that do donate in 6741 06:02:23,100 --> 06:02:25,100 our community which I know there is a lot 6742 06:02:25,100 --> 06:02:27,100 of us that do.

Thanks. Phillip welch I shared 7134 06:29:15,100 --> 06:29:18,100 last time on this. My family purchased a 7135 06:29:18,100 --> 06:29:21,100 house and hoping to rent it but my 7136 06:29:21,100 --> 06:29:23,100 comments are on the workforce housing 7137 06:29:23,100 --> 06:29:26,100 portion of this. I fully agree with 7138 06:29:26,100 --> 06:29:29,100 supervisor gore that I don't think this is 7139 06:29:29,100 --> 06:29:32,100 going to effect prices. We have a perfect 7140 06:29:32,100 --> 06:29:35,100 case study in south lake study. Measure t 7141 06:29:35,100 --> 06:29:37,100 husband been effect 12 months now and the 7142 06:29:37,100 --> 06:29:40,100 prices haven't gone down if you look at 7143 06:29:40,100 --> 06:29:43,100 zillow it isn't effecting it, so I hate 7144 06:29:43,100 --> 06:29:46,100 for us to be pursuing this as a solution 7145 06:29:46,100 --> 06:29:48,100 for problem and waiting for a couple years 7146 06:29:48,100 --> 06:29:51,100 to see did this fix it, wait it didn't fix 7147 06:29:51,100 --> 06:29:55,100 this at all. So that is one thought. The 7148 06:29:55,100 --> 06:29:58,100 other thought I noticed in the written 7149 06:29:58,100 --> 06:30:00,100 document on the update to the ordinance 7150 06:30:00,100 --> 06:30:03,100 mentioned of future hotel developments and 7151 06:30:03,100 --> 06:30:06,100 economic viability of that being 7152 06:30:06,100 --> 06:30:08,100 challenged by this and I'm concerned we 7153 06:30:08,100 --> 06:30:10,100 are thinking of that instead of thinking 7154 06:30:10,100 --> 06:30:13,100 why can't we build long-term workforce 7155 06:30:13,100 --> 06:30:16,100 housing that isn't rentable? Instead of 7156 06:30:16,100 --> 06:30:19,601 hotels we have small hotels now. 7157 06:30:20,100 --> 06:30:22,100 short-term rentals and people like using 7158 06:30:22,100 --> 06:30:25,100 them. Why worry about the economic 7159 06:30:25,100 --> 06:30:28,100 viability of something not economically 7160 06:30:31,100 --> 06:30:34,601 viable anymore? Thank you.
