You can make your comments now, but we're also going to you can make comments behind anything that's on the agenda

29
00:02:28,140 --> 00:02:32,760
You can always have a comment, but this is a public comment section if anyone has any comments

30
00:02:36,540 --> 00:02:39,140
So we share should we approve the agenda first?

31
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:45,220
Didn't we just do that that was a thousand minutes. Oh, so we need to approve the agenda

32
00:02:46,380 --> 00:02:48,680
You want me to move that we approve the agenda?

33
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:49,620

00:02:51,220 --> 00:02:51,800

35
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:53,100

36
00:02:54,640 --> 00:02:55,320
Motion passes.

37
00:02:55,540 --> 00:02:56,200
The agenda passes.

38
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:57,380
Okay.

39
00:02:58,480 --> 00:02:59,460
Any public comments?

40
00:02:59,940 --> 00:03:00,880
I have number four.

41
00:03:04,030 --> 00:03:04,230
Okay.

42
00:03:04,950 --> 00:03:06,610
So let's go through the old business,

43
00:03:06,870 --> 00:03:08,670
senior services task force.

44
00:03:09,410 --> 00:03:11,330
So we need to,

45
00:03:11,330 --> 00:03:13,350
um, so I don't know if the August meeting happened,

46
00:03:13,790 --> 00:03:17,610
but we need to assign individuals to attend that task force meeting for

47
00:03:17,610 --> 00:03:19,370
September, in October.

48
00:03:21,210 --> 00:03:22,170
Pulling it for August.

49
00:03:25,850 --> 00:03:35,050
I'm sorry, but I think we need translation in Spanish because there's people do you need translate?

50
00:03:35,310 --> 00:03:36,830
I've never seen that introduction.

51
00:03:38,170 --> 00:03:40,470
In the end, not in the introduction. Perfect.

52
00:03:41,010 --> 00:03:43,870
No, they say that they can, they don't need it.

53
00:03:43,870 --> 00:03:51,390
Okay. So, who went to the senior task force meeting in August? Was there where's where August meeting? Yes.

54
00:03:51,550 --> 00:03:55,770
Yes. Who was in August meeting? No, there was no attendance from the senior advisory committee.

55
00:03:56,330 --> 00:03:58,370
Okay. Who was supposed to go to August meeting?

56
00:04:10,420 --> 00:04:19,040
I don't believe it was discussed. Sorry. I'm sorry. Yes. Maria's rest for now. She wasn't attendance. Yes.

57
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:20,320
Okay,

58
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:28,300
do you have to have a given feedback from this senior task force meeting and we also need to assign

59
00:04:28,300 --> 00:04:32,560
so much to attend the September and October and November meetings?

60
00:04:35,940 --> 00:04:36,380
Okay, back.

61
00:04:37,220 --> 00:04:47,360
I arrived late in the part that when I arrived, we discussed about how communicate, how to

62
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:49,200
Um, me, um,

63
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:51,600
what?

64
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:54,940
Oh, you cannot hear?

65
00:04:57,730 --> 00:04:59,850
Okay, now can you hear now?

66
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:11,940
Okay, okay, so we talk about how we can communicate better and how things, I don't even have a match, I'm not it.

67
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:27,760
I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry. But the communication was an important thing, and that's where we, that has been time is playing, how was important for me to do,

68
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:34,420
because the way that was presented these incidents,

69
00:05:35,380 --> 00:05:37,880
that they need to be like the different groups,

70
00:05:38,260 --> 00:05:41,740
you need to sign up, you need to get into the way,

71
00:05:41,900 --> 00:05:43,800
you need to do it this way, you need to that way.

72
00:05:44,700 --> 00:05:48,040
And I felt myself that I was not part of the program

73
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:53,000
because I learned things in a way that I was not used to.

74
00:05:53,380 --> 00:05:56,320
And I was playing that piece and I said,

75
00:05:56,320 --> 00:06:09,500
I'd like to be more human beings because I love to talk to people and let them know, and people who can go with it on phone or in the computer, that's fine.

76
00:06:09,700 --> 00:06:16,020
But a lot of the population that they are not English speaking people, they have had time to do it.

77
00:06:16,100 --> 00:06:19,320
And as I said, I will love to do it.

78
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,440
At least, I would like to do it the way that I feel comfortable,

79
00:06:22,840 --> 00:06:27,380
committee, committee, committee is working in inviting people different ways.

80
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:29,860
That's the part that I remember the most.

81
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:34,100
Did you have any feedback that you want to give us?

82
00:06:34,280 --> 00:06:34,820
Maurice from that meeting?

83
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:36,240
Yes, sure.

84
00:06:36,980 --> 00:06:38,420
Yes, that was part of the conversation.

85
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:39,220
Bill trips.

86
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:46,140
We're going from that that we wanted to do a roundtable to invite anyone who has gone on a

87
00:06:46,140 --> 00:06:53,480
trip or is interested just so we can make sure the communication is available for everyone in

88
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:59,700
a way that they can best digest. I don't think we will be diverting from the legislation process,

89
00:07:00,060 --> 00:07:05,000
but we can at least make it available for those who need support. But we will be hosting a

90
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:11,180
roundtable for that towards the end of this month. We also talked about the computer room,

91
00:07:11,180 --> 00:07:16,540
The city pays for or invest in ask Kevin to come and do computer trainings

92
00:07:17,180 --> 00:07:25,360
It has been good so far, but I know we know that it can be better with more our reach of communication and then also

93
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:30,580
There's an opportunity or easy opportunity to add to senior center in there

94
00:07:30,580 --> 00:07:36,600
It's to be able to utilize their computer room instead of a renting space out of the YMCA

95
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:42,920
So that there was a conversation about that, there was a conversation about events in public spaces

96
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:51,080
and making sure that the Senior Center Incans aware of them, just in case there's overlap or anything like that.

97
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:57,620
We talked about the Senior Prom, making sure that everyone feels welcome in doing the raffle prize giveaways

98
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:02,980
and just having some kind of ticket under the chair, ideas, something like that.

99
00:08:02,980 --> 00:08:10,220
that could make it a little less cumbersome for those who aren't understanding the language clearly.

100
00:08:12,780 --> 00:08:19,360
Yeah, we talked about people having need-based issues with getting tickets and we were able

101
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:27,680
to come up with a process there through the Senior Center. There will be Espoil also a academy

102
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:33,380
wants to have a better relationship and deeper relationship with the senior center so that they

103
00:08:33,380 --> 00:08:39,900
can do some continue on doing their walks in the park and kind of a companionship type programming.

104
00:08:40,940 --> 00:08:46,860
And that was set up by Vice Mayor Abreka, along with Diane Ladine, who was President at the meeting.

105
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:53,600
I gave them an update on the senior services strategic assessment. We do have a staff

106
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:58,040
It does have a draft of the assessment and they will release it

107
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:05,140
confidentially to members of the Senior Advisory Committee as well as the Senior Center Inc.

108
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:09,880
And then we will be planning to bring that item to Council in November.

109
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:17,560
Parking out policy where they're going to develop a policy for how parking goes on event days.

110
00:09:17,980 --> 00:09:23,320
I'm just in general just to be clear because that the Senior Center parking lot does have to

111
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:28,600
with Bell Street Park because it does not have Bell Street Park as I have his own parking lot.

112
00:09:29,700 --> 00:09:35,060
I mean, yeah, that was the just of the meeting from how we went. Am I missing anything?

113
00:09:36,940 --> 00:09:43,000
No, I don't think so. Okay. Thank you. Thank you. That's kind of a question or suggestion there.

114
00:09:43,220 --> 00:09:51,580
If I can just comment, maybe it might help because in just just a thought, like whenever we do

115
00:09:51,580 --> 00:09:54,860
like the surveys, we have the surveys in Spanish.

116
00:09:56,100 --> 00:09:58,700
So maybe the Google Doc.

117
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:10,940
Maybe we could have a Spanish version? Do we? Maybe. So just a suggestion. Not some just something to just think about. Maybe that might help, but suggestion.

118
00:10:16,300 --> 00:10:16,400
Yes.

119
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:29,980
No, not a training. A Spanish version. So and we'll talk about it at the end of the agenda. So they mentioned like the field trips and Teresa felt that she didn't feel like she was more

120
00:10:29,980 --> 00:10:36,020
of a part of the events or something and I'm thinking and she didn't really a lot of seniors

121
00:10:36,020 --> 00:10:42,820
maybe if they aren't technical be able to sign up on the Google Doc. So maybe we might have it

122
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:48,760
in a translation maybe that might help but also just another thought I'm just putting it out here.

123
00:10:48,980 --> 00:10:59,960
Maybe since we have as Kevin as a technology maybe that might be a place for them to be able to

124
00:10:59,960 --> 00:11:12,780
Okay, so any other comments on that? So we need, so you need September, October, and November, so much to attend the senior services task force. And those meetings are on Fridays.

125
00:11:13,620 --> 00:11:24,880
Do we have dates for those meetings? Yes, the next meeting is I'll be September 18th. Followed by, let me pull that up, sorry.

126
00:11:28,910 --> 00:11:31,690
October 16th and then November 20th.

127
00:11:33,710 --> 00:11:40,010
November 20th. Yes. Okay. So, can I ask a question? Everybody here who has not attended,

128
00:11:40,610 --> 00:11:45,190
because this is the part of the senior advisory and the collaboration, so who has not attended

129
00:11:45,190 --> 00:11:48,830
a senior services task force meeting?

130
00:11:51,030 --> 00:11:56,030
Okay. You're not sure? Okay. Would you be willing to

131
00:11:56,030 --> 00:11:58,130
Tim, okay, yeah, I know you would.

132
00:11:58,330 --> 00:12:02,710
So can we, can you, can we get somebody to volunteer

133
00:12:02,710 --> 00:12:05,350
for September 18th October 16th

134
00:12:05,350 --> 00:12:07,010
in November 20th?

135
00:12:08,990 --> 00:12:10,050
One, 30 PM.

136
00:12:18,900 --> 00:12:20,220
Any volunteers for those?

137
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:23,320
Which one, goate?

138
00:12:25,780 --> 00:12:27,440
October 16th, okay.

139
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:30,280
Anybody, is it?

140
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:36,220
If I'm local, at the time, I'll be going to go.

141
00:12:37,420 --> 00:12:38,000
Both, what?

142
00:12:38,660 --> 00:12:39,500
September 18th.

143
00:12:39,500 --> 00:12:47,080
member and October. Okay. So September 18th, we have Isaac. October 16th, we have

144
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:52,100
court in November 20th, we have Q. Okay. Thank you, everyone.

145
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:55,900
Are they here? They're held

146
00:12:55,900 --> 00:13:05,080
at the senior center. Okay. Okay. Thank you. So I don't number two, oh, business, senior

147
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:13,180
from. So maybe we could give get up to date on the senior prom and where we are. So everybody should

148
00:13:13,180 --> 00:13:20,820
have a flyer. The senior Paul senior ball is September 25th, 2026. So it's called a evening

149
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:25,780
without borders. So we definitely want to be very intentional about bringing everybody inclusive,

150
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:32,740
bringing everybody together. So we just want to make sure that everybody felt welcome and a lot of

151
00:13:32,740 --> 00:13:40,400
on this. So the committee is very very diverse. So initially the tickets are much higher. Do we have

152
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:48,480
an update of how many tickets we have sold at this far? On event by we saw it 112 tickets. The senior

153
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:56,060
center itself has sold 2018 tickets so that's 130. And then we also got sponsorship tables for

154
00:13:56,060 --> 00:14:02,560
supervisor at least we're going to say and ask Kevin, so that's an additional 16.

155
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:04,580
And, and Matongi.

156
00:14:04,620 --> 00:14:07,520
And Matongi approaches their own table, but they're feeling it themselves.

157
00:14:08,060 --> 00:14:09,120
That's another eight.

158
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:09,800
Thank you.

159
00:14:09,820 --> 00:14:10,740
Thank you.

160
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:15,400
So that brings us to 24, so 100, right, 100 and 54, I think it's total.

161
00:14:15,460 --> 00:14:22,300
Okay, so just, if I can say this, we have to, we have to make sure that, because our entertainment,

162
00:14:22,300 --> 00:14:29,240
like some of the entertainment, they're going to not be paid, they're going to have, so make sure

163
00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:34,840
we have to get all those just lots for those people. So they'll be able to be in attendance as well as

164
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:40,760
not over so. Absolutely, but can you keep a track about please keep, I'm not keeping a count on that,

165
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:47,120
can you keep count on entertainment? I think men says we have, but I am, isn't my action item in my list?

166
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:54,580
Yeah, I think Chinese dancers for six free tickets, so make sure you reserve for that.

167
00:14:54,940 --> 00:14:59,180
They don't get paid, so we offer them six free tickets.

168
00:14:59,700 --> 00:14:59,980
Thank you.

169
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:09,550
All right. There's been track. Thank you. Yeah. Okay. Perfect. Anything else on the senior prom that we would like to share?

170
00:15:22,380 --> 00:15:32,160
People for the photo, photo booth. They're available. The only thing is we have to get the paperwork done.

171
00:15:34,590 --> 00:15:40,470
Okay, so what what miserable thing so we have entertainment so we have secured entertainment from

172
00:15:41,910 --> 00:15:45,650
To be as though we're trying to be culturally inclusive of everyone

173
00:15:46,950 --> 00:15:47,470
animatongy

174
00:15:47,470 --> 00:15:49,630
to be a and I think

175
00:15:50,730 --> 00:15:56,990
Licela the Chinese answers and then the Mary all the Mary actually man so

176
00:15:56,990 --> 00:16:03,150
We were looking at the budget and and I'll add that on the minutes this Friday when I do those

177
00:16:04,590 --> 00:16:08,090
for photo booth and we didn't know if that was going to be in the budget but it looks like

178
00:16:08,090 --> 00:16:13,890
it is. So I, that's the action item. How take care of the two Miss Ruth went to the

179
00:16:13,890 --> 00:16:19,570
middle part senior center and they had a senior prom and she liked what they work because

180
00:16:19,570 --> 00:16:24,350
it wasn't available that they print out the pictures everybody wants something to be able to take

181
00:16:24,350 --> 00:16:33,590
with them. So I'll, thanks for my action item. I'll do that this week. Anything else on that?

182
00:16:33,590 --> 00:16:40,390
I have a question. Where does one actually go to get tickets to the senior ball?

183
00:16:42,970 --> 00:16:48,850
On the flyer, there's a QR code. You can scan, if you don't like scanning the QR code.

184
00:16:49,370 --> 00:16:50,150
It's on the Vimbright.

185
00:16:52,110 --> 00:16:54,490
Okay. We'll make sure you get the ticket.

186
00:16:55,110 --> 00:16:57,510
Okay. Thank you.

187
00:16:58,190 --> 00:17:01,810
Okay. So, O Business Item Number 3.

188
00:17:01,810 --> 00:17:12,130
So the change in the title. Oh, yeah, the change in price to tickets. So as of August 31st, the tickets were $40 in August and with the

189
00:17:13,210 --> 00:17:26,190
Processing fee, I think it was like $45 in some sense. So now after August 31st, tickets are $50 plus the process and fee. So I don't know what the total amount is

190
00:17:27,010 --> 00:17:28,450
But it's not $75

191
00:17:30,770 --> 00:17:32,590
It's 55 and some change.

192
00:17:32,630 --> 00:17:33,570
55 and some change.

193
00:17:34,590 --> 00:17:34,630
Good.

194
00:17:34,690 --> 00:17:36,750
So it looks like tickets are selling fast.

195
00:17:36,870 --> 00:17:37,810
So if people want to participate,

196
00:17:38,390 --> 00:17:40,790
you probably need to get those tickets right away.

197
00:17:43,250 --> 00:17:45,190
Mr. Dempsey recognition.

198
00:17:45,610 --> 00:17:48,170
So it looks like that was on the agenda somewhere.

199
00:17:48,570 --> 00:17:49,630
I must have missed it.

200
00:17:49,630 --> 00:17:52,750
But I think it's very important that we do that.

201
00:17:53,090 --> 00:17:55,450
And maybe did you have any recommendations on

202
00:17:55,450 --> 00:18:00,530
and how we want to celebrate Mr. Dempsey suggestion.

203
00:18:01,210 --> 00:18:05,530
Yeah, I think we have to do it in the same fashion.

204
00:18:05,710 --> 00:18:09,730
We celebrated Miss Ola Augment, but we also have to include

205
00:18:09,730 --> 00:18:12,770
his tenure with the Ravenswood City School District.

206
00:18:13,850 --> 00:18:19,650
He served 20 years with the school district, and then he also served 20 years here at

207
00:18:19,650 --> 00:18:28,050
the city of East Palo Alto, along with his military career, so I think it needs to be a

208
00:18:28,050 --> 00:18:34,430
conversation ahead and potentially at the senior services task force meeting because all

209
00:18:34,430 --> 00:18:41,290
of the parties involved have expressed wanting to recognize and honor him somehow. But the city

210
00:18:41,290 --> 00:18:48,550
itself will definitely do a resolution. I think the senior senior senior advisor committee should do

211
00:18:48,550 --> 00:18:55,310
resolution, maybe we, I don't know where we host the event at, but make sure that it's

212
00:18:55,310 --> 00:19:02,130
well attended for him. So, okay. That is my initial thought. I'll open the floor to anyone else.

213
00:19:02,150 --> 00:19:04,010
Okay. I have a suggestion.

214
00:19:08,260 --> 00:19:16,460
So, potential dates and I'll be location like Kuli landing or

215
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:22,460
where and and is there a budget for that

216
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:29,720
the city will be supporting this event

217
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:38,960
seeing as how he was a city employee for so long and integral member of the

218
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:47,180
senior of the older adult community so we'll be taking care of that. Maybe what

219
00:19:47,180 --> 00:19:50,800
about this space I mean consider I mean we have like on new business that's the

220
00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:51,380
Next item.

221
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:57,260
Maybe the November pilot, we can turn that into a Mr. Dempsey celebration.

222
00:19:58,500 --> 00:19:59,980
I need whatever need everybody's.

223
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:27,910
I think it's a matter of chair. I think it's a good idea to recognize people that have been in this community for a long time and have dedicated their time and service. I think that we probably should do a subcommittee, plannings, this event.

224
00:20:27,910 --> 00:20:43,910
and date and time and all that should probably be discussed at that meeting and I'd like to be a part of it and part of the planning committee so thank you.

225
00:20:45,750 --> 00:20:46,670
That is awesome.

226
00:20:47,430 --> 00:20:51,250
Would anybody else like to participate with Madonna and planning that?

227
00:20:51,470 --> 00:20:52,010
You know Isaac,

228
00:20:54,540 --> 00:20:54,560
okay?

229
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:56,120
You probably need one more person.

230
00:20:58,360 --> 00:20:58,600
Okay.

231
00:20:59,620 --> 00:21:13,080
That's okay. Yes. Yes. Yes. That's it. Okay. You got your three members? And of course I'll help. I'll support you. Okay.

232
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:23,640
Okay. Moving on to, I don't number six. New business. So I had thought about doing just a,

233
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:29,040
for the November meeting doing like a potlet because they you know order food or whatever

234
00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:32,720
people want to cook or just this is just the way to be able to get together to share

235
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:41,020
have a real light agenda and then can do a potlet. That was my suggestion but people

236
00:21:41,020 --> 00:21:46,680
can say no or whatever but I want everybody's thoughts. He's talking about for the senior

237
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:53,260
advisory committee meeting in November. Yes. Okay. And it's going to be the holidays

238
00:21:53,260 --> 00:21:57,640
isn't everything, so I thought that we could just do something kind of festive.

239
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:03,960
To the chair, would this be open to the public or would it just be internal?

240
00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:06,260
It would be open to all seniors.

241
00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:07,320
I mean, everybody.

242
00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:09,100
I was thinking, everybody.

243
00:22:12,260 --> 00:22:12,480
Okay.

244
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:15,260
We'll have a conversation just offline.

245
00:22:17,060 --> 00:22:22,180
I think the madam chair, it's going to be on our meeting night.

246
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:27,720
So, it's open to the public, I mean, the public comes to the meeting, they're certainly

247
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:35,660
a part of the potluck and so you need a committee for that too.

248
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:41,100
We got all these documentaries, we get ready to get everybody busy, so it's not just us.

249
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:45,320
We have people nice crowd out there, we can get them all subcommittees and get them involved

250
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:45,840
too.

251
00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:50,900
So, can we, should we take a motion on, is that something that we want to do?

252
00:22:57,870 --> 00:23:01,430
I have to be a motion, could it just be the consensus of the body?

253
00:23:01,950 --> 00:23:03,850
Do we have a consensus of the body?

254
00:23:04,270 --> 00:23:04,390
Yeah.

255
00:23:04,930 --> 00:23:07,610
Is that something everybody, I know I need to hear some voices.

256
00:23:07,910 --> 00:23:10,090
Miss, probably, I haven't heard you.

257
00:23:10,390 --> 00:23:10,630
Yes.

258
00:23:11,630 --> 00:23:11,970
Okay.

259
00:23:13,610 --> 00:23:16,050
I want to make sure I hear everybody, miss.

260
00:23:16,550 --> 00:23:20,270
Our seniors need to be out and as active as possible, especially.

261
00:23:20,750 --> 00:23:24,130
So whatever we invite them to, it would be great to do.

262
00:23:24,370 --> 00:23:24,810
Absolutely.

263
00:23:27,090 --> 00:23:31,750
And I just wanted to do something like, it'll be during the holiday before Thanksgiving, just

264
00:23:31,750 --> 00:23:39,230
to kind of do something, because kind of get people together, and then fancy, just to

265
00:23:39,230 --> 00:23:41,590
get people get music, just to get us together.

266
00:23:42,550 --> 00:23:49,630
And yes, this can be a beginning for something that is the feel that the old be seniors and

267
00:23:49,630 --> 00:23:57,590
everybody in the community with parents and grandparents are part of this group that we

268
00:23:57,590 --> 00:24:06,650
working together for everybody, essentially the grownups, the older adults. Okay. Thank you.

269
00:24:06,890 --> 00:24:19,610
And well, Maurice, we'll have a conversation. But I'll be the head of that. I don't number two on the

270
00:24:19,610 --> 00:24:30,610
It's been a very long and stringuous year, so just like we did last year. I would like to not have a December meeting that was my recommendation, but I want everybody's

271
00:24:32,950 --> 00:24:35,810
Input and consensus with that or I mean

272
00:24:36,770 --> 00:24:39,610
How could have a December meeting we could just have somebody else run it.

273
00:24:45,590 --> 00:24:49,190
I mean, I'm just being honest. I mean, what does everybody feel?

274
00:24:49,190 --> 00:24:52,950
I mean everybody likes kind of get together but what is what is what is what is I need

275
00:24:52,950 --> 00:24:57,350
everybody's voice everybody starts and then we get a career disagree.

276
00:24:57,750 --> 00:24:58,370
Who's a chair?

277
00:24:58,910 --> 00:24:58,970
Yes.

278
00:24:59,210 --> 00:24:59,910
The city manager.

279
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:08,060
There has asked that we have a work plan that we present to city council for the following year.

280
00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:14,960
So if you think we can have a work plan ready to go for the technical December hiatus,

281
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,500
I leave that up to the committee.

282
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,540
So a work plan that's due to the city manager win?

283
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:26,460
He would like to see it for the new year, so January.

284
00:25:28,060 --> 00:25:29,180
Good to cheer,

285
00:25:33,810 --> 00:25:41,250
so Mr. Baker, how long have you known that it's was going to be asked for the last week?

286
00:25:41,470 --> 00:25:42,210
It's last week.

287
00:25:42,370 --> 00:25:43,990
She doesn't want all boys and commissions.

288
00:25:44,850 --> 00:25:57,030
Okay, so probably help to have that information as soon as you received it and send it out to us on an email so that we could schedule.

289
00:25:57,030 --> 00:26:21,330
Maybe a separate meeting to really fill it together because if we waited for now tonight and we're talking about doing the end of the year events this that kind of puts us in a position where we have to hurry up and get it done.

290
00:26:25,460 --> 00:26:38,260
I don't know if it should be, you know, a special meeting call before October, so that we can work on this.

291
00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:41,700
September, this was so working on this.

292
00:26:41,700 --> 00:26:46,820
So, let me ask you, can I find something that it's September now, okay?

293
00:26:46,820 --> 00:26:53,980
right. We're going into October. So if we had a meeting at the beginning of October,

294
00:26:54,220 --> 00:26:59,500
because now we know we need to get this tap. What is what did you call it?

295
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:07,280
Work on. Work on together. We need to know what that means. Exactly.

296
00:27:09,020 --> 00:27:17,320
So what we call the meeting, the early part of October and just focused on the work plan and get it done

297
00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:22,300
as much as we can. Are you asking for two meetings in the beginning of October? Well, you know,

298
00:27:22,420 --> 00:27:28,800
what I'm asking for, whatever it's going to take to get this work plan started because time

299
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:36,020
is not standing still for anybody. And you know, like I said, as soon as something important comes

300
00:27:36,020 --> 00:27:42,420
through the pipeline that affects our ability to get together and meet to implement something,

301
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:46,760
we need to know that right now. So we're looking at our calendars. We're planning things

302
00:27:47,380 --> 00:27:50,440
from right now till the end of the year.

303
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:54,660
I apologize. I thought three months notice was adequate, but I do apologize.

304
00:27:54,780 --> 00:27:56,330
Next time I'll send an email that night.

305
00:27:57,340 --> 00:28:00,720
So all I'm saying is if we have to call the separate me,

306
00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:03,640
that's what we have to do. We don't really have too much choice.

307
00:28:04,180 --> 00:28:11,320
Because if you're saying for the recognition for Mr.

308
00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:18,440
DMC is going to happen. Well, we don't know what is going to happen. But we know that we need

309
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:22,420
just said a day to do this. So I will suggestion.

310
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:27,620
How about we make October the working meeting

311
00:28:27,620 --> 00:28:33,980
to do the strategic plan? I'm just being honest. I'm tired. I'm tired. So we can list

312
00:28:33,980 --> 00:28:46,620
Since as many meetings as we possibly can to meet, do you all, can I ask city staff, do you all have an example of what, I mean, I've done a strategic guidelines of what needs to be in the strategic plan.

313
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:55,140
Yeah, we've done one before the past. It's in 2024. It's just that we need to do an updated one for 2027.

314
00:28:55,140 --> 00:29:03,720
So I will compare with everything you guys need is that is so we did one in 2024. Is that is that did I leave that?

315
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:06,420
Okay, I can't remember

316
00:29:06,420 --> 00:29:11,100
It was I was I don't you are on a Jeff Austin

317
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:19,160
Okay, yeah, is that that's so that's not the cafe report. No, it's okay. It's just a senior advisory committee work plan. Okay, okay

318
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:20,900
if you can at least send an example

319
00:29:20,900 --> 00:29:25,880
So we can at least just get our eyes on it to see what we're responsible for doing.

320
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:27,060
I'll send that to you this evening.

321
00:29:27,100 --> 00:29:27,360
Perfect.

322
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:28,640
Thank you.

323
00:29:29,420 --> 00:29:31,880
So I'm still on for December hiatus.

324
00:29:35,010 --> 00:29:35,730
You know what?

325
00:29:35,930 --> 00:29:39,910
I'm in agreement because you know we all have busy lives.

326
00:29:40,590 --> 00:29:42,050
We we need to take a break.

327
00:29:42,190 --> 00:29:42,710
We're public.

328
00:29:43,310 --> 00:29:44,390
We're we're volunteers.

329
00:29:44,610 --> 00:29:52,150
We're not getting paid for all of the time that we commit to be on different committees and the things that we do.

330
00:29:52,150 --> 00:29:59,970
And so I don't have a problem with taking the month of December off that gives us time to focus on some things in our

331
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:08,860
person alive. So I'm in support of it. So we take a roll, let's take a roll call. Let's take a roll call, let's

332
00:30:08,860 --> 00:30:12,360
without with let's do a roll call and see who's in agreement.

333
00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:13,760
Chair, where was he?

334
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,060
Yes, I'm in agreement December hiatus.

335
00:30:16,380 --> 00:30:17,600
Vice chair Ruth Kasi.

336
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:18,780
Yes.

337
00:30:20,140 --> 00:30:20,880
I don't know about it, good.

338
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:23,320
Isaac Stevenson?

339
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:23,820
Yes.

340
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:25,300
I'll go along with it.

341
00:30:25,940 --> 00:30:29,240
So, Skinna, certainly.

342
00:30:29,980 --> 00:30:30,060
Thank you.

343
00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:31,880
Where were we going, Rainer?

344
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:32,620
Yes.

345
00:30:33,540 --> 00:30:34,740
Look, that's what I said for Nantes.

346
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:35,540
Yes.

347
00:30:36,300 --> 00:30:36,820
Can you smith?

348
00:30:37,860 --> 00:30:38,200
OK.

349
00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:39,060
Thank you.

350
00:30:39,060 --> 00:30:45,640
You know, that gives the chance to work on September, October, work on the, um, yes.

351
00:30:45,940 --> 00:30:50,760
Okay. So we're going to move to item number, the new business, six number three, summer

352
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:56,160
activation field trips, roundtable. So what we, what we want to do, we know, and then people

353
00:30:56,160 --> 00:31:02,280
in the public, this is whenever you can have, um, your experiences, we want to hear your experiences,

354
00:31:02,300 --> 00:31:07,580
because we want to continue to do it, um, differently, and continue to improve. I know a lot of

355
00:31:07,580 --> 00:31:14,520
people took surveys, but we just want to get people's ideas of what your experiences, where

356
00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:19,600
we want to hear your experiences, what can be approved upon or different things like that.

357
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:26,080
And I even have, so I know there was one field trip that was canceled, so the type A personality

358
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:27,140
that I am.

359
00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:33,540
I even have now I have a flow sheet of what the registration process is, and I even have a flow

360
00:31:33,540 --> 00:31:35,740
sheet of what the cancellation process is.

361
00:31:35,740 --> 00:31:44,880
So we do have copies of that so you guys get follow along if you want to but if if the public has any comments or anybody from the senior advisory committee

362
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:49,720
Any suggestions recommendations feedback that might be helpful.

363
00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:56,320
Sure.

364
00:31:56,540 --> 00:32:00,500
It's near the back of your packet should be I believe beneath the flyers.

365
00:32:04,930 --> 00:32:07,990
Also through the chair, a comment regarding the registration for this field trips.

366
00:32:08,230 --> 00:32:10,930
That firm was online in Spanish as well as Spanish and English.

367
00:32:13,530 --> 00:32:14,090
So,

368
00:32:16,510 --> 00:32:21,970
this item was brought to our attention because of, you know, the trips that everyone

369
00:32:21,970 --> 00:32:27,110
did that we take during the summer times and we wanted to ensure that everyone felt

370
00:32:27,110 --> 00:32:32,970
comfortable talking in the space, there may be some that don't feel comfortable talking

371
00:32:32,970 --> 00:32:40,630
on the public and public channel like this on a recorded line, so if you don't feel comfortable

372
00:32:40,630 --> 00:32:47,270
the odd planning to have a round table at the senior center. We will bring snacks and we just want

373
00:32:47,270 --> 00:32:52,190
to hear from you all and hear from everyone about how the their experience was with the trips,

374
00:32:52,230 --> 00:32:57,470
how we can improve the trips because here in my division at the city we always want to be getting

375
00:32:57,470 --> 00:33:05,010
better and I know everyone else feels the same so I'll just kind of open the floor up there to

376
00:33:05,010 --> 00:33:06,810
anyone who wants to have a comment.

377
00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:23,480
Oh, where?

378
00:33:24,060 --> 00:33:24,080
Oh,

379
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:30,320
hi.

380
00:33:30,460 --> 00:33:31,680
My name is Karen Williams.

381
00:33:32,580 --> 00:33:35,220
And I had the last two trips to San Francisco.

382
00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:36,920
I wasn't able to take the others.

383
00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:39,180
But I had a grand old time.

384
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:40,500
I had a good time.

385
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:44,580
And when we got there, we had a little time to walk around.

386
00:33:45,140 --> 00:33:48,060
And then we had to, you know, get on the ferry.

387
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:51,960
And when we stepped on that ferry, I was in seven heaven.

388
00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:55,340
Because I like a casino, but it didn't have a casino.

389
00:33:55,340 --> 00:34:05,600
had a bar. So a couple of us seniors, we got our cocktail. We went upstairs to the second floor.

390
00:34:05,980 --> 00:34:13,020
We had a nice trip. It was a nice ride. It was beautiful. And I would like to do it again.

391
00:34:14,180 --> 00:34:20,540
And we took pictures. And the boat got the rocket a little bit. And so I didn't know if it was

392
00:34:20,540 --> 00:34:25,340
drink of the boat. So I was saying rock study baby, rock study baby, and

393
00:34:25,340 --> 00:34:30,140
standing here Toby's carrying set out. But after the boat got

394
00:34:30,140 --> 00:34:33,500
studied, you know, you're in the water. I was able to go out to the

395
00:34:33,500 --> 00:34:37,740
deck and take pictures. I got to see Alchemtrance. I never saw Alchemtrance

396
00:34:37,740 --> 00:34:42,060
before. So it was to me, it was a good trip. And the other trip to the

397
00:34:42,060 --> 00:34:46,860
Korean. That was a good trip. And then we ate after we walked around. So

398
00:34:46,860 --> 00:34:49,560
There was only two ideas, but I loved it.

399
00:34:49,700 --> 00:34:55,440
And the people on the bus, everybody was friendly, everybody got along and had a grand

400
00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:55,780
time.

401
00:34:56,340 --> 00:34:57,640
And I hope we can do it again.

402
00:34:58,120 --> 00:34:59,580
The only suggested I have.

403
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:02,160
I'd like to see what a man on that bus.

404
00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:05,720
Thank you, Pierre.

405
00:35:07,720 --> 00:35:18,000
I'm sorry, I'm sorry. This is the type of, I'm sorry, please.

406
00:35:21,250 --> 00:35:27,830
Good evening, everybody. My name is Sandra Green and I've actually had the, the blessings

407
00:35:27,830 --> 00:35:33,330
to be on most of the trips and I feel like there were well organized, everything was communicated.

408
00:35:34,190 --> 00:35:39,210
We had a grand old time and we were able to reconnect with people that I hadn't seen in decades.

409
00:35:40,230 --> 00:35:42,150
So it gets us out the house.

410
00:35:42,770 --> 00:35:47,810
So I want to thank you, Paris and Maurice and the city for putting these together.

411
00:35:48,730 --> 00:35:49,510
Thank you.

412
00:35:53,970 --> 00:35:57,130
So this is the type of feedback we need and we need to hear it.

413
00:35:57,130 --> 00:36:04,430
Honestly, we need to hear it often because we're in a time now where we want to really document

414
00:36:04,430 --> 00:36:10,330
it. The good things that are happening around the city and the things that like you just

415
00:36:10,330 --> 00:36:14,810
said, bring our older adults out of the house because our older adults need to get out of

416
00:36:14,810 --> 00:36:20,430
the house more. Can't control how many men get on the bus, but I'm a lesser hand of that

417
00:36:20,430 --> 00:36:21,150
part.

418
00:36:24,310 --> 00:36:30,190
I think you mentioned a point where people could go in their own spaces and do what

419
00:36:30,190 --> 00:36:36,290
we're enjoying to do. We need to make sure that we're providing that all trips because they are

420
00:36:36,290 --> 00:36:41,350
those who may want to have a live agency or two. And then there are those who just want to hang out and

421
00:36:41,350 --> 00:36:47,150
be around their people. So we need to just make sure we're doing that and that's the emphasis that we want to

422
00:36:47,150 --> 00:36:53,510
talk about in these trips is the registration process easy for you. Is there something that we can do better?

423
00:36:53,510 --> 00:36:57,170
because like I said, we're always trying to improve.

424
00:36:58,410 --> 00:37:01,650
Chair Hill doesn't amazing job curating these trips.

425
00:37:01,730 --> 00:37:04,310
It's her ideas and not not not the cities.

426
00:37:05,450 --> 00:37:09,110
So I will say, help us get better.

427
00:37:09,490 --> 00:37:11,170
And that's where we're trying to go.

428
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:19,820
And I would say that I've enjoyed the trips

429
00:37:19,820 --> 00:37:21,720
that I've gone on, my husband and I,

430
00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:24,480
that's a good way to pull him out of the house.

431
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:36,500
And he's enjoyed them too, and they're well orchestrated, and although Paris and staff do

432
00:37:36,500 --> 00:37:43,480
they're very best to get the word out, there's going to be a few humps along the way where,

433
00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:48,480
you know, you're going to hear people say, I didn't know about it. I didn't hear about it.

434
00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:57,380
But usually, if you know about a trip this, I'm going to take place, if you could just

435
00:37:57,380 --> 00:38:02,440
tell your friends and family members, because that's the way we do things, word of mouth gets

436
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:12,040
around better than an email or a text sometimes, you know, but do whatever you can to

437
00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:21,440
involved those people that you know may not know and yeah nobody's perfect and of course

438
00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:30,120
we want as many to show up because we have that 50 passenger van bus tour bus and you know

439
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:38,900
most of the time it's full so anyway I think you're doing a great job you and Maurice thank you

440
00:38:41,630 --> 00:38:43,790
So, oh, can I come in?

441
00:38:44,050 --> 00:38:55,970
Okay, so, um, we have, so what I do is, so whenever I'm curating the trips, I'm looking at cost,

442
00:38:56,610 --> 00:39:02,830
and if you know, notice I always try to have maybe two high-end kind of a little bit.

443
00:39:03,030 --> 00:39:08,590
So I'm looking at the cost of the total budget, and I'm also looking at,

444
00:39:08,590 --> 00:39:21,970
And this happened, I got this feedback, that we had a 55 passenger van bus, 55 passenger bus, 55 passenger bus and other people wanted to attend.

445
00:39:22,570 --> 00:39:28,590
Just because I have a 55 passenger bus, I've only purchased a certain amount of tickets.

446
00:39:29,090 --> 00:39:36,170
And the bus company in, and it takes a lot of going back and forth with the bus company to see what's available, what's not available.

447
00:39:36,170 --> 00:39:45,090
And if I'm going back, say, okay, we need a 35 passenger, we need 25, and then if people don't show up, we're just trying to stay within the budget.

448
00:39:45,610 --> 00:39:49,690
So normally, initially, I was doing 25, 35.

449
00:39:50,790 --> 00:39:59,310
So I kind of go up a little bit, but I try not to take about, I try to take no more than 40 on a trip because also,

450
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:07,140
Safe the reasons, you know, and how many people that we have to keep track of.

451
00:40:07,720 --> 00:40:15,900
So, but my goal is I will love to expand it and do a year round. That's a different conversation.

452
00:40:16,500 --> 00:40:28,440
But I think in the summertime is great, but I think we need more of it, but we need the support of everybody and give us the honest, the honesty back.

453
00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:46,260
So we've been doing this, this is our six year and I know the registration process, that's the reason why we have the Google document is because we have to track all data of who's coming.

454
00:40:46,940 --> 00:40:50,660
That's something that the city needs, the requirements they need that data.

455
00:40:50,660 --> 00:41:07,120
So it's important if you don't know how to use the quick Google document. That's also why I have my phone number on the flyer because what I'm doing is I'm looking at what they have who's clicked on who's registered and then I'm making sure we don't go over our numbers

456
00:41:07,740 --> 00:41:20,000
I'm making sure we don't go over a number and to make sure we have enough tickets. So it's a lot of balancing in the background that people don't see but the honest feedback is important for us to be able to just just get better

457
00:41:21,940 --> 00:41:24,840
in the other comments on that.

458
00:41:25,060 --> 00:41:26,520
Anybody else have?

459
00:41:27,420 --> 00:41:28,460
Thank you.

460
00:41:30,970 --> 00:41:34,250
I went on all the excursions and I enjoyed all of them.

461
00:41:34,290 --> 00:41:37,790
I enjoyed interacting with other seniors on the trip.

462
00:41:38,170 --> 00:41:40,510
And there was quite a few seniors that don't drive.

463
00:41:40,750 --> 00:41:45,150
And so this program was really good for them to get out and be around

464
00:41:45,150 --> 00:41:45,850
other people.

465
00:41:46,510 --> 00:41:46,530
Yeah.

466
00:41:46,810 --> 00:41:48,090
Thank you.

467
00:41:52,710 --> 00:41:53,610
Miss Larry.

468
00:41:53,610 --> 00:42:01,810
Mary. Mary. Mary. Mary. That's okay. Mary. I'm in. I've seen people's faces now. I remember.

469
00:42:03,570 --> 00:42:07,590
Good evening. My name is Bridget Grant and I'm a book east follow up to a senior center.

470
00:42:08,170 --> 00:42:14,910
And I wanted to say misparers, you're doing an awesome job. This year I didn't hear as many comments,

471
00:42:15,650 --> 00:42:21,170
but all the trips that they've been on, they've really enjoyed it. So thank you and your staff.

472
00:42:21,970 --> 00:42:24,630
And I'll continue to work with you as well.

473
00:42:32,220 --> 00:42:34,860
I would like to mention her name is Margaret.

474
00:42:35,180 --> 00:42:38,580
I am a resident of East Malto for the last 48 years.

475
00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:41,960
I've been here and I just want to say thank you.

476
00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:46,360
I'm one of the young seniors and I'm so grateful to Ferris.

477
00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:51,440
Sometimes they keep me out of the loop because I don't know what's going on.

478
00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:53,100
I've got laid off in March.

479
00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:55,460
So I've been off for all that time.

480
00:42:55,460 --> 00:42:57,980
but when I heard of the trips going on,

481
00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:00,860
I'm like, how come nobody told me about this?

482
00:43:01,100 --> 00:43:03,200
So I've been getting information from Sandy

483
00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:06,500
and from friends that, hey, they got trips going.

484
00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:08,700
So the trips are beautiful.

485
00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:14,120
I've gone on the last two to the ferry and then pure 39.

486
00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:15,820
And I have to say they were great.

487
00:43:16,260 --> 00:43:19,180
I call a Paris and ask if the trip was available.

488
00:43:19,820 --> 00:43:23,220
Anybody else goes, she said, was the trip is full.

489
00:43:23,500 --> 00:43:24,740
She said, but if I get a cancellation,

490
00:43:24,740 --> 00:43:29,720
and I will call you. She's been true to her word. She's always called me and I want to say thank

491
00:43:29,720 --> 00:43:34,260
you to Paris. I've enjoyed all the trip. I've enjoyed all the people and it's just been

492
00:43:34,260 --> 00:43:38,280
a pleasure. It's been a pleasure for me because it gave me an opportunity to get out and spend

493
00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:43,400
time with friends and loved ones and not be a home and be bored. So I just want to say thank you

494
00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:48,140
for everything and I'm looking forward to the next one. I'm looking forward to the senior prom.

495
00:43:48,140 --> 00:43:49,880
Thank you so much.

496
00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:08,860
I like to say thank you to all the committee.

497
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:11,520
Senior advisor.

498
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:17,180
I am speaking for the seniors going to the senior center.

499
00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:19,680
The ones can not make it.

500
00:44:19,860 --> 00:44:21,640
They really enjoy these trips.

501
00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:22,960
Thank you, Peris.

502
00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:24,360
Thank you very much.

503
00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:25,020
Thank you, everybody.

504
00:44:25,720 --> 00:44:27,120
To make this possibility.

505
00:44:28,020 --> 00:44:29,260
Because they have fun.

506
00:44:29,260 --> 00:44:37,940
that once can make an eye, everybody can make it because they're not working, they work in a very short distance for the once can work, they enjoy.

507
00:44:38,620 --> 00:44:51,180
And I like to really say thank you and continue doing this for the seniors, because we seniors will have time and home, and you can have a leave, how much happiness making when you take them out.

508
00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:53,540
Thank you very much. I know it's a lot of work.

509
00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:29,660
Hello, my name is Sherry Bundy and I've been friends with Paris for like 40 years now and so she asked me to help her with one of the trips to Monterey and when I got there and saw all the singers that was there, it made me so happy to see how happy there were people with backpacks and excited to, you know, ready to get on the bus and stuff and then when we got to Monterey it was like the singers were kids again.

510
00:45:29,660 --> 00:45:34,680
like they it was I mean the excitement you can feel it, you know my sister and I helped

511
00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:40,420
Harris with the trip and I was so happy because I was able to actually see some of the people

512
00:45:40,420 --> 00:45:45,920
that went to high school with my mom and make some connections that way and I admire

513
00:45:46,620 --> 00:45:54,180
Harris's ability to remain calm under pressure because that registration process for the

514
00:45:54,180 --> 00:45:59,160
moderate trip there were people that hadn't registered there were people that we didn't have their

515
00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:07,960
There were people that didn't speak English, and then we were trying to, you know, make sure that we can accommodate them on the best of the Paris was really calm.

516
00:46:09,140 --> 00:46:15,160
And she did a great good job, and I just appreciate what you're doing for the seniors. I remember when my grandmother was alive.

517
00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:22,840
And she was going to the senior center and all of the funds, she was so excited always to be able to connect with the seniors and have the camaraderie.

518
00:46:23,140 --> 00:46:26,740
So I applaud you, keep going this, and thank you.

519
00:46:33,940 --> 00:46:38,780
I'm here and I'll just a lot of applause for this trip types of trips, okay?

520
00:46:39,780 --> 00:46:43,860
Um, this is the type of feedback, please, Ms. May, you want to come up?

521
00:46:46,150 --> 00:46:48,590
I have five names, but anyway,

522
00:46:52,230 --> 00:46:55,350
okay, I have five names, so I go by whatever they call me.

523
00:46:55,950 --> 00:47:05,450
But I've been to a lot of things and all I want to say is thank you guys for helping the

524
00:47:05,450 --> 00:47:13,870
is because it is such a need. I just want to say thank you and a special thank you to an amazing

525
00:47:13,870 --> 00:47:17,870
man. Thank you, Mr. Maurice.

526
00:47:26,340 --> 00:47:29,920
Does anybody know what the Marvin and beer and say anything else?

527
00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:37,300
We're open for suggestion. We'll see. All of the back. That's y'all been around us. Been around me.

528
00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:42,920
I'm open. We don't take offense. We just want to do better. So let me just put this out

529
00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:50,500
there. And maybe people can comment, what do you all think about because these trips is free,

530
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:56,620
not really free, but is free? Do you think because, and I was going to say a challenge that I

531
00:47:56,620 --> 00:48:02,940
had this year is people were sign up and then they were canceled at the last minute. So I'll give you an

532
00:48:02,940 --> 00:48:10,220
example. And I have to send like a tendon cheats in and a lot of different things, right? So I've been

533
00:48:10,220 --> 00:48:14,780
tracking everybody that attendance and everybody that signs up. So one of the

534
00:48:14,780 --> 00:48:23,060
trips we had like 45 odd people that signed up for the trip. So I ordered a 55

535
00:48:23,060 --> 00:48:31,120
passenger van. I mean bus, bus, but I've been bus. And what I try to do and I've been

536
00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:39,840
pretty good at it is try to at least that's why people say, well, if I can

537
00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:47,320
to let us know. So for instance, for the casino trip, we had a larger, a larger bus, and people

538
00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:54,360
canceled at the last minute. And I mean, things happen, but I think we have like about 10 or 11

539
00:48:56,460 --> 00:49:01,780
cancellations at the last minute at the last minute. And it was me reaching out to people saying,

540
00:49:02,020 --> 00:49:06,120
hey, are you still going to be able to come? Maybe two days before something like that. So I just

541
00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:10,480
really want people just to be mindful because we're working at in the budget and we don't want to be

542
00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:17,640
paying more for a bus and then the bus not be full or the capacity of the tick is that we have.

543
00:49:18,380 --> 00:49:24,780
So I'm just putting this out there what I have suggested potentially and I want to hear everybody see

544
00:49:24,780 --> 00:49:33,480
back of doing some kind of deposit. Doing some kind of deposit. Maybe just a matter of chair.

545
00:49:33,480 --> 00:49:52,840
Yeah. Excuse my indulgence, but I think we're going to be we have some more business on the agenda and there will be a roundtable for deep discussion on this and we can't resolve all of the concerns of whatever tonight.

546
00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:59,120
So I am suggesting that we, at this point,

547
00:49:59,120 --> 00:49:59,980
T-T-T-T-T-T.

548
00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:25,300
We're going to move forward with the rest of our agenda. And for those interested, please come to the round table, table talk, table talk, whatever is called, and give your input, because tonight we're not going to resolve everything. We can go on all night. Thank you. Thank you for that. Okay, but I also want to be before we move on.

549
00:50:25,300 --> 00:50:27,880
And we'll go through the agenda quickly.

550
00:50:28,580 --> 00:50:29,880
Mother Teresa did have a comment.

551
00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:31,860
So I want to recognize her and then we get

552
00:50:31,860 --> 00:50:35,540
if anybody else in the audience has comments then,

553
00:50:35,880 --> 00:50:37,980
but I definitely want to recognize her because she had a comment.

554
00:50:39,460 --> 00:50:43,480
Well, I think it's important for me to mention everything is great.

555
00:50:44,100 --> 00:50:47,800
If somebody enjoys the field trips and works with Paris,

556
00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:52,120
is that is, I always enjoy it a lot.

557
00:50:52,120 --> 00:51:00,960
And everybody, even these punishes picking people that enjoy it a lot, and I make sure they understand and I make sure about everything.

558
00:51:03,040 --> 00:51:14,200
But the one thing I guess at least we can leave it to discuss it later, but it was one time when the field trip was cancelled and people were not notified.

559
00:51:14,200 --> 00:51:19,800
We don't need to discuss it tonight, but I think that it's a very important point because

560
00:51:21,920 --> 00:51:26,960
Effect the people that they were waiting and they didn't know that was considered. So that's all

561
00:51:26,960 --> 00:51:32,200
Thank you. Okay, awesome. Thank you. Do the share. I do agree with

562
00:51:33,540 --> 00:51:36,100
Chair or meeting member Redford

563
00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:44,000
That we could move forward my only question is I want to try to get a consensus of when the best time is to hold the

564
00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:49,840
on table, should we do it during a lunch period, lunch time, or should we do it in the evening?

565
00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:53,340
What would be, what would gather the most attendance?

566
00:51:56,400 --> 00:52:00,220
You could open it to the committee or to the floor.

567
00:52:00,480 --> 00:52:06,700
Okay, so let me, so can, from us, we'll start, okay, with us,

568
00:52:07,500 --> 00:52:11,320
even it would be better for, okay, is it in person or on the zone?

569
00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:13,100
It would be in person.

570
00:52:13,100 --> 00:52:20,380
person. So the evening would work better for me. I'm open for evening.

571
00:52:23,860 --> 00:52:24,840
I'd take evening,

572
00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:31,220
but I have problems with Zoom. Just getting, and I keep thinking again, how many of

573
00:52:31,220 --> 00:52:36,000
our seniors actually are safe online or know how to use the tools? That's a cow.

574
00:52:39,800 --> 00:52:41,980
I'm good for any

575
00:52:43,300 --> 00:52:49,420
me to do in the lunch or even so whatever.

576
00:52:54,020 --> 00:52:58,200
It doesn't matter, okay.

577
00:53:00,610 --> 00:53:01,530
And me I'd love

578
00:53:01,530 --> 00:53:02,510
to level both.

579
00:53:06,260 --> 00:53:12,100
Set it up, it doesn't matter. Okay, and this just reminded me that we

580
00:53:12,100 --> 00:53:17,100
have to make sure we stay under brown act rules for the committees. Only four can

581
00:53:17,100 --> 00:53:26,360
this meeting, by the way. Yep, I know. I apologize. Floor, committee members can attend. Otherwise,

582
00:53:26,700 --> 00:53:32,700
we are going outside of the Brown Act. Okay, but I'll probably can attend. Absolutely. Okay, so

583
00:53:32,700 --> 00:53:40,740
cannot ask. Oh, wait. I'm sorry, Madam Chair. Maybe you can pull who wants to be a part of that

584
00:53:40,740 --> 00:53:46,480
from this advisory committee. You know, you'll be there.

585
00:53:52,700 --> 00:53:55,020
Okay. So who would like to attend that meeting?

586
00:53:56,420 --> 00:54:01,200
The round table. Okay. That's where you got for. Okay.

587
00:54:01,860 --> 00:54:06,680
Can we pull it out? So, so Ben's can take notes on that. So mother Teresa says she'll attend.

588
00:54:07,820 --> 00:54:09,900
Miss Sulean says she'll attend.

589
00:54:10,540 --> 00:54:12,720
Isaac says he'll attend and myself.

590
00:54:12,720 --> 00:54:42,200
No, it's no. Oh, it's rude. Oh, it's rude. One, two, and then to reset. Okay, so, okay, but so, okay, so let me just do this. I and maybe I choose maybe I may not be there because maybe it's just I'm just saying it gives people the opportunity if they're not comfortable speaking to be able to have it because I'm running the program that they might have suggestions or recommendations. They may not want me to hear.

591
00:54:43,020 --> 00:54:52,720
Well, I personally think that if you can't be honest to the person's face, I think we're,

592
00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:59,980
yeah, I realize some people are a little intimidated, but when issues come up, you need to just step up.

593
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:05,880
One courage and say, what you have to say is not trying to hurt the person's feeling. You have more information

594
00:55:06,980 --> 00:55:15,800
because this is your baby, so to speak. So you can answer the questions that cannot be answered by me.

595
00:55:15,800 --> 00:55:25,980
You have the inside knowledge and our staff person, Mr. Baker. And so you need to be there.

596
00:55:25,980 --> 00:55:34,650
And yeah, you need to be there. And look, I've been here in this honesty word all night.

597
00:55:34,790 --> 00:55:41,690
Words has come from. I don't understand why it's so much confusion about being honest.

598
00:55:41,850 --> 00:55:47,870
I'm an honest person. You know, I learned to be a little more tactful in how I say things.

599
00:55:48,450 --> 00:55:54,430
But the truth is the truth. And we, you know, don't be scared. Come on.

600
00:55:54,430 --> 00:56:03,460
And this guy was just like power and power. Okay, be in power. What a word you want. Okay, okay, so, so,

601
00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:08,080
okay, who is that?

602
00:56:09,000 --> 00:56:12,780
Theresa Sueann, Ruth and Paris. Oh, Sueann came in after.

603
00:56:13,100 --> 00:56:25,080
Isaac, okay. So, that was looking. Okay, she was looking. Okay, moving along. So, we have Theresa, myself, Ruth and Isaac.

604
00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:36,600
Okay, make sure he gets the right day. Yes, okay. Thank you. Okay, so we go have we going to run through this agenda quickly

605
00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:42,580
Transportation subcommittee report. So we had a subcommittee. No, we had a subcommittee meeting

606
00:56:45,040 --> 00:56:47,680
Last month has a subcommittee have you all

607
00:56:48,460 --> 00:56:49,960
Matter have any reports

608
00:56:56,530 --> 00:56:59,130
I think I think it was court and

609
00:57:01,130 --> 00:57:11,910
remember who it was now? No, I've reported last last month. I reported last month when the meeting

610
00:57:11,910 --> 00:57:16,670
was being scheduled on what was going to happen in foster city with the cemetery county,

611
00:57:16,670 --> 00:57:24,790
and I have not received that post report yet. And we have not, if we've met, I wasn't aware of it.

612
00:57:24,790 --> 00:57:27,570
We didn't, I'm not aware of meeting either.

613
00:57:30,210 --> 00:57:37,390
So can we make a commitment to follow up with that item, and if the transportation

614
00:57:37,390 --> 00:57:42,070
and subcommittee, because that seems to keep coming up, and that might be a part of our strategic

615
00:57:42,070 --> 00:57:42,810
plan.

616
00:57:43,050 --> 00:57:48,310
So we want to make sure that we have information to put in the strategic plan and I just

617
00:57:48,310 --> 00:57:51,150
love real change that we can do.

618
00:57:51,150 --> 00:57:55,050
So we can make a commitment to the committee to be able to, if you guys could just meet even

619
00:57:55,050 --> 00:58:00,890
for 30 minutes over zone, if you guys could schedule that and then I would like to

620
00:58:00,890 --> 00:58:13,990
suggest that City, Vince, Maurice, whoever remind us, schedule a meeting, get some feedback

621
00:58:13,990 --> 00:58:20,890
saying, yes, we can make it, and sort of follow up and keep us on track, because I

622
00:58:20,890 --> 00:58:22,730
will want to get thousands of emails,

623
00:58:24,790 --> 00:58:28,150
and text works better, but, you know, I do

624
00:58:28,150 --> 00:58:35,470
manage to get my, my order in for the, for the sandwich. So if I can do that, then I

625
00:58:35,470 --> 00:58:36,790
ought to be able to get to a meeting.

626
00:58:41,620 --> 00:58:43,400
Chair, we can, we can help.

627
00:58:43,400 --> 00:58:53,150
through the chair did we ever find out about the status of the buses that was for the

628
00:58:53,150 --> 00:58:55,170
transportation committee to figure out.

629
00:58:57,350 --> 00:58:57,990
Yes.

630
00:59:01,080 --> 00:59:04,260
Are you talking about the San Mateo buses

631
00:59:04,260 --> 00:59:17,200
or the city? The buses here? The ones that like niche drives. Yeah. I don't know. City staff,

632
00:59:17,200 --> 00:59:17,800
know.

633
00:59:21,000 --> 00:59:22,160
Oh how the tables have turned.

634
00:59:24,680 --> 00:59:29,140
We currently have one shuttle van driver and that is Penny Jackson.

635
00:59:29,920 --> 00:59:37,000
We are going to recruitment for a second van driver and we are looking to have that person

636
00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:47,100
do more weekend driving and also potentially appointments and grocery or shopping and stores.

637
00:59:53,470 --> 00:59:59,150
If I remember right, you remember that we were talking about transportation before the

638
00:59:59,150 --> 00:59:59,690
See you for a minute.

639
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:16,240
Well, I remember at that time, we had everybody had a different information and we, somebody said that it would be nice if the people that come here and give us some information about transportation.

640
01:00:17,480 --> 01:00:24,900
Okay. You remember that? So, Megan, what I recall is that meeting, that was before the last meeting

641
01:00:24,900 --> 01:00:33,480
if I'm on the second. I think I sent out meeting minutes from that. Right. Right. And I think

642
01:00:33,480 --> 01:00:39,260
you were right. But, does it okay? We were just asked the public, since we have a half people now.

643
01:00:39,460 --> 01:00:44,200
I mean, if we can ask them, what do you all think about transportation? Because I know some people

644
01:00:44,200 --> 01:00:47,920
They don't drive and this is the helpful information for your community.

645
01:00:48,280 --> 01:00:54,560
They don't drive so what do you guys think about transportation or how the city can better prepare for

646
01:00:54,560 --> 01:01:03,240
transportation for the seniors? Now we do have the Sam Transbus. The right plus. So does anybody

647
01:01:03,240 --> 01:01:11,380
have any suggestions, recommendations as far as transportation around the city or needs that you might

648
01:01:11,380 --> 01:01:15,540
to see for other seniors that you might be able to share feedback on that.

649
01:01:18,310 --> 01:01:26,870
Madam Chair, I thought this transportation report was on, they didn't meet, obviously.

650
01:01:27,570 --> 01:01:34,230
So now if you're following up with the question was about the hands that were available

651
01:01:34,230 --> 01:01:43,250
to transport seniors, one was inoperative and then there's only one bus driver.

652
01:01:43,250 --> 01:01:48,990
So, maybe this is a part of that round-table conversation, too.

653
01:01:49,950 --> 01:01:51,310
That would be, that's probably correct.

654
01:01:51,730 --> 01:01:53,330
And the doesn't look like that they did.

655
01:01:53,390 --> 01:01:55,330
I want to thank everybody for coming, too.

656
01:01:55,590 --> 01:01:57,930
But we can use their feedback since they're here, their seniors.

657
01:01:58,710 --> 01:02:01,790
Well, we should have extended the time for this meeting.

658
01:02:02,850 --> 01:02:03,070
Okay.

659
01:02:03,910 --> 01:02:06,270
Well, I mean, everything is important.

660
01:02:07,270 --> 01:02:15,550
If every idea or our suggestion comes up, if the public has something to say, they should,

661
01:02:15,770 --> 01:02:22,190
for them in their own minds, say, I need to speak on that, rather than you suggest them coming up,

662
01:02:23,430 --> 01:02:29,450
because you're putting them on a spot. And they don't like people. If I want to say something,

663
01:02:29,450 --> 01:02:33,490
I'm going to get up and say it when you say, do it.

664
01:02:33,970 --> 01:02:36,270
We know a lady will come in in the back.

665
01:02:38,110 --> 01:02:38,410
Yeah.

666
01:02:39,770 --> 01:02:40,850
No up to the bite of something.

667
01:02:42,110 --> 01:02:42,410
Yeah.

668
01:02:51,450 --> 01:02:52,010
Thank you.

669
01:02:52,210 --> 01:02:52,490
Everything.

670
01:02:53,130 --> 01:02:56,310
But what I was just going to say is, like you said,

671
01:02:56,410 --> 01:02:57,890
sometimes people don't know.

672
01:02:58,370 --> 01:03:00,130
So even when I see people walking,

673
01:03:00,930 --> 01:03:02,790
I tell them, do you know about the same train,

674
01:03:02,870 --> 01:03:05,010
bus riding the area and giving the phone number?

675
01:03:05,190 --> 01:03:07,270
So we just have to work together

676
01:03:07,270 --> 01:03:14,430
to help one another because everybody don't know everything and so that's a blessing to have

677
01:03:14,430 --> 01:03:14,750
someone.

678
01:03:15,010 --> 01:03:19,770
It's just like telling somebody about to say the Lord, to help them.

679
01:03:20,010 --> 01:03:21,130
But thank you again.

680
01:03:22,790 --> 01:03:25,910
Thank you.

681
01:03:26,690 --> 01:03:26,930
Thank you.

682
01:03:26,950 --> 01:03:28,010
That's just a sign of it.

683
01:03:28,350 --> 01:03:28,490
Thank

684
01:03:31,270 --> 01:03:32,050
you.

685
01:03:33,470 --> 01:03:36,690
My sons of age group, call me mom.

686
01:03:38,210 --> 01:03:42,690
Matthews, Andrews, call me Auntie, Graham, Sonja May, I have five lanes, and my

687
01:03:42,690 --> 01:03:46,090
LeGrendo, a great Grendo on the 15th, was somebody to go,

688
01:03:46,270 --> 01:03:49,490
I'm on, I'm on to, that's not your, that's the girl big line, that's okay.

689
01:03:50,670 --> 01:03:56,450
Okay, thank you. But so, as you all can see, we're trying to do so much in a

690
01:03:56,450 --> 01:04:00,370
little amount of time, and we want to continue to get the information out there. So

691
01:04:00,370 --> 01:04:04,010
it's important that you guys come to these meetings. It's a great turnout, but it's a

692
01:04:04,010 --> 01:04:08,250
you have to be able to participate. So I'm encouraging everybody to be able to

693
01:04:08,770 --> 01:04:11,750
participate. You can even be a part of this committee because I think the

694
01:04:11,750 --> 01:04:15,350
couple of our seats are going to be up next year. So it will be great to just

695
01:04:15,350 --> 01:04:20,910
continue to participate and get your feedback. Thank you all for coming and so

696
01:04:20,910 --> 01:04:25,750
Ms. Donna I'm just going to we're going to kind of keep moving on. So just to clarify

697
01:04:25,750 --> 01:04:32,050
with the presentation. So we have two vans and only one is operable. Both vans are

698
01:04:32,050 --> 01:04:40,250
probably we just only have one driver. Okay. Okay. If if anyone knows of anyone that can drive

699
01:04:40,250 --> 01:04:49,470
class A passenger endorsement, please put it out there. Okay. So Madam Chair, it's not on

700
01:04:49,470 --> 01:04:56,490
the agenda, but I did want to report that the communication and social participation committee

701
01:04:56,490 --> 01:04:59,970
met on July 10th, just be.

702
01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:21,820
For our recess, Sue Lynn, Ms. Rainer and Ms. Ruth. We met and we did discuss a few things that we think will be beneficial for our committee to move forward.

703
01:05:21,820 --> 01:05:29,600
One of the important things was we need the senior to get the data on where seniors are in this community.

704
01:05:29,680 --> 01:05:37,420
I know that's been talked about for a while, but we haven't received anything and that's really a big

705
01:05:37,420 --> 01:05:45,300
important part of how we contact seniors at our homebound and to get them involved.

706
01:05:46,120 --> 01:05:49,940
There are a lot of good recommendations that came out, so I won't go through all of them,

707
01:05:49,940 --> 01:05:57,760
I did want you to know that we did meet and we are going to continue to meet on, we agreed to meet on the second,

708
01:05:58,560 --> 01:06:05,840
second Friday of the month at 11 a.m. On Zoom.

709
01:06:08,380 --> 01:06:15,700
So, our next meeting is on September 11th at 11 a.m.

710
01:06:15,700 --> 01:06:22,600
on Zoom. Okay. Thank you. That's all. I'm going to report. Thank you. Just real quick questions

711
01:06:22,600 --> 01:06:25,780
that team will let us at 11 a.m. We won't be finished with the senior prompt.

712
01:06:28,030 --> 01:06:29,010
Well, oh, yeah,

713
01:06:29,150 --> 01:06:35,450
that is just saying, yeah, I'm sorry. Yes, thank you for that. We could probably move me to after that,

714
01:06:36,070 --> 01:06:41,530
right? Well, I'll talk to you with my team. Okay. First, thank you. Okay. So we're going to move on to staff

715
01:06:41,530 --> 01:06:48,270
reports and you kind of gave a brief overview of the senior services assessment. So if I recall

716
01:06:48,270 --> 01:06:53,270
doing over the summer we had some consultants that were here and they were interviewing a lot

717
01:06:53,270 --> 01:06:59,030
of the seniors and they did a town hall meeting I think a couple of times of kind of like the senior

718
01:06:59,030 --> 01:07:03,010
services what the seniors kind of want in the community whether it's needed in the community.

719
01:07:03,710 --> 01:07:08,930
So we were just trying to put that on the agenda to see if we can get a follow-up item for that

720
01:07:08,930 --> 01:07:13,730
that he is. Maurice did give a brief overview but if you can just kind of give a brief for that

721
01:07:13,730 --> 01:07:25,270
he is right now. Yes, so right now we have a 41-page draft report. It talks about the senior

722
01:07:25,270 --> 01:07:34,490
services that exist in the that are city managed. So senior advisory committee, my senior

723
01:07:34,490 --> 01:07:42,450
services staff through the nutrition and the transportation and then also the senior center and senior center ink.

724
01:07:43,230 --> 01:07:46,570
Those are the entities right now that are kind of

725
01:07:46,570 --> 01:07:56,610
Helmed by the city. However, through the report, we did not touch on all of the different organizations around the city.

726
01:07:56,810 --> 01:08:00,270
Non-profits that support seniors as well.

727
01:08:00,270 --> 01:08:04,150
So, staff is going to release a report,

728
01:08:04,550 --> 01:08:08,250
confidentially to the Senior Advisory Committee.

729
01:08:08,830 --> 01:08:11,530
Here's a timeline where released that this month,

730
01:08:12,450 --> 01:08:15,010
and we're released it to the Senior Center Inc.

731
01:08:16,010 --> 01:08:18,510
And then you'll have time to review it.

732
01:08:19,050 --> 01:08:21,110
We will go over it in October

733
01:08:21,110 --> 01:08:24,110
at the Senior Services Task Force meeting.

734
01:08:25,270 --> 01:08:26,610
And then from there,

735
01:08:26,610 --> 01:08:32,750
If there's any refinement, we'll finalize and it'll go to Council, I believe the date we have

736
01:08:32,750 --> 01:08:36,090
said for that is under November 16th or 17th.

737
01:08:36,710 --> 01:08:43,710
And then from there, it'll Council or the City Council will be able to make a recommendation

738
01:08:43,710 --> 01:08:49,190
on what they would like to see moving forward for senior services in East Palo Alto.

739
01:08:52,530 --> 01:08:54,910
Okay, thank you for that.

740
01:08:54,910 --> 01:08:59,090
Moving on to item number nine. Do we have any announcements?

741
01:09:10,960 --> 01:09:13,060
Madam chair. I do have one announcement.

742
01:09:13,700 --> 01:09:21,020
Jew Health Foundation is presenting their Drew family and friends barbeque Saturday September 19th

743
01:09:22,100 --> 01:09:26,080
from 12 to 4 p.m. at 1191.

744
01:09:26,080 --> 01:09:32,680
run a meet street here in East Palo Alto. They're going to have, of course, the barbecue and

745
01:09:32,680 --> 01:09:40,440
refreshments, live music and entertainment. This is networking with community partners. So this

746
01:09:40,440 --> 01:09:52,220
is a, you have to RSVP also by September 11th. And this would, do you help barbecue at Gmail? There's

747
01:09:52,220 --> 01:09:59,920
phone number here so I could just give this a guess to Mr. Baker and maybe take a picture of it.

748
01:10:02,420 --> 01:10:04,680
I'll follow up after the meeting.

749
01:10:07,190 --> 01:10:12,230
And we have, yes, I don't, I don't even have one.

750
01:10:12,910 --> 01:10:15,190
Oh, thank you.

751
01:10:15,630 --> 01:10:24,830
So, as our last little kind of get together, we're going to do a job newspaper.

752
01:10:25,990 --> 01:10:31,930
So this is September, and it's going to be because it's so important to us that we try to include

753
01:10:32,530 --> 01:10:37,770
everybody on the west side to really try to bring the community together. So we're doing it

754
01:10:37,770 --> 01:10:44,370
at the little pop-up park there behind Woodland Park over there. So it's going to be for

755
01:10:44,370 --> 01:10:50,130
like an hour and a half and for people to just be able to come do some taste test of

756
01:10:50,130 --> 01:10:56,790
joboges because I could say for me joboges whenever I go or when sub us I didn't know what to

757
01:10:56,790 --> 01:11:03,390
So you don't want to waste your money on something that you don't, you don't like or you don't know.

758
01:11:03,690 --> 01:11:08,970
So this will give us an opportunity to be able to, to taste some, um, the flyer.

759
01:11:09,070 --> 01:11:14,490
Be able to taste some jambages and be able to give some movement, share exercises and different things.

760
01:11:14,750 --> 01:11:16,250
And we're going to have some raffle prizes.

761
01:11:16,470 --> 01:11:19,270
I know y'all like prizes, gifts, stuff.

762
01:11:19,830 --> 01:11:24,610
So, um, that was a, a jambages pop up and are there any other announcements?

763
01:11:24,610 --> 01:11:33,650
Yeah. I didn't see the address on here. Oh, it's a little popular part in Donna West station about it down to her right on the other side.

764
01:11:34,690 --> 01:11:35,810
Don't know if you go.

765
01:11:38,890 --> 01:11:39,930
It's where?

766
01:11:41,050 --> 01:11:43,390
Is it by 70, never in a cross to bridge?

767
01:11:44,230 --> 01:11:47,050
Not that one. It's on the other side.

768
01:11:47,430 --> 01:11:49,930
By behind universities are going to be behind four seasons.

769
01:11:52,070 --> 01:11:52,730
Yeah. Oh, there.

770
01:11:52,730 --> 01:12:02,750
Yeah, you know, okay, you're dating yourself. The whole same. Yeah, yes, okay. Okay, with the address again, please

771
01:12:02,750 --> 01:12:08,030
This is it's like we have space shore and down a hole

772
01:12:48,110 --> 01:12:59,570
Okay, thank you, and also senior prompts, if you have not gotten your tickets, if you can, you have been, say, tickets are going fast, so with international prompts, so where you're cultural,

773
01:12:59,570 --> 01:13:04,810
So, garments, we went with our cultural garments, it was going to be a great time and great

774
01:13:04,810 --> 01:13:05,270
pictures.

775
01:13:06,090 --> 01:13:11,010
So, if anything else, we can join the meeting.

776
01:13:14,050 --> 01:13:15,150
I'll set that.

777
01:13:19,310 --> 01:13:19,430
I'm going to go.

778
01:13:20,010 --> 01:13:26,030
My name is Bridget Grant and I'm from the East Malawar Prisoner Center and I didn't bring

779
01:13:26,670 --> 01:13:34,310
a flyer, but seniors on the move coordinated by Supervisor Jackie Spears will be on

780
01:13:34,310 --> 01:13:35,850
September 17.

781
01:13:37,970 --> 01:13:42,590
You can register online. Again, I apologize when I bring in

782
01:13:42,590 --> 01:13:48,770
flyers because I didn't know it. I can make them a don't smit. We have a bus. I

783
01:13:48,770 --> 01:13:54,670
think we're going to have a bus sponsored by Mrs. Spears to come to the

784
01:13:54,670 --> 01:14:00,490
senior center. I do have a list of people already, but I can take a few more

785
01:14:00,490 --> 01:14:06,690
thing. So you can come over to the Senior Center. You can also register online and it's called

786
01:14:06,690 --> 01:14:14,690
seniors on the move and it would be held at the San Mateo County Fairground and it starts from

787
01:14:14,690 --> 01:14:19,890
nine to three. What time were the best people in the Senior Center?

788
01:14:23,170 --> 01:14:26,670
Probably by eight o'clock in the morning.

789
01:14:37,850 --> 01:14:40,910
I'm sorry, I thought it was dinner clock.

790
01:14:41,770 --> 01:14:43,510
I think they changed the time.

791
01:14:43,690 --> 01:14:44,390
Oh, they changed?

792
01:14:44,710 --> 01:14:44,790
Yes.

793
01:14:44,790 --> 01:14:46,070
All time was changed.

794
01:14:47,130 --> 01:14:47,310
Oh.

795
01:14:48,750 --> 01:14:49,390
Eight o'clock.

796
01:14:50,030 --> 01:14:50,790
Eight o'clock.

797
01:14:51,610 --> 01:14:52,930
Oh, excuse me.

798
01:14:53,730 --> 01:14:56,390
I wasn't, I mean, the reason I haven't been told that.

799
01:14:56,390 --> 01:14:57,390
So thank you.

800
01:14:58,150 --> 01:14:58,630
You're welcome.

801
01:15:02,780 --> 01:15:16,000
Okay, thank you. Thank you everyone for coming. Thank you for joining us last time. Don't let the three of us. Oh, you guys from the same. Okay, sorry. Okay, come on.

802
01:15:16,340 --> 01:15:17,940
Good evening. Yes.

803
01:15:17,940 --> 01:15:30,980
And for everybody, every member's Akirin is, I also try to say, thank you very much for all the

804
01:15:30,980 --> 01:15:40,100
Yav you do for all community, and especially for all seniors, seniors, one of the teams

805
01:15:40,100 --> 01:15:52,080
and we try to get the information all as much as we can.

806
01:15:52,520 --> 01:16:00,220
So especially the most important information we have in all these conversations is very important.

807
01:16:00,220 --> 01:16:09,620
And I would like to know if we can go with any members to get the information in Spanish.

808
01:16:10,800 --> 01:16:16,540
All also, most of the community, we speak in Spanish.

809
01:16:17,520 --> 01:16:22,680
So I would like to appreciate that to get it in Spanish.

810
01:16:23,100 --> 01:16:24,280
Thank you very much.

811
01:16:28,980 --> 01:16:30,440
Thank you.

812
01:16:30,600 --> 01:16:31,380
Can you share

813
01:16:34,710 --> 01:16:48,430
the question?

814
01:16:50,090 --> 01:16:53,330
Can you share the question?

815
01:16:53,330 --> 01:16:54,190
No, that's a question.

816
01:16:54,190 --> 01:16:57,050
And really, I'm not going to talk about this.

817
01:16:57,430 --> 01:17:00,950
I brought in in online and from my husband for those of them.

818
01:17:01,230 --> 01:17:02,350
And keep taking out the dollars.

819
01:17:03,190 --> 01:17:05,370
And what happens is, there are some of us,

820
01:17:05,550 --> 01:17:06,730
personally, I don't know if you don't see them,

821
01:17:06,730 --> 01:17:07,470
but I don't see them.

822
01:17:08,050 --> 01:17:09,910
And I don't think they're going to be sending them

823
01:17:09,910 --> 01:17:11,330
or they're sending them to us.

824
01:17:11,790 --> 01:17:12,670
They're sending them to the water.

825
01:17:13,390 --> 01:17:13,490
Okay.

826
01:17:13,590 --> 01:17:14,390
I don't know why.

827
01:17:14,830 --> 01:17:16,530
I just wanted to say that.

828
01:17:16,790 --> 01:17:17,190
Okay.

829
01:17:18,990 --> 01:17:20,810
People from Miss Palo Alto,

830
01:17:21,550 --> 01:17:23,090
they told me that they were selling.

831
01:17:23,090 --> 01:17:29,090
I found out that the people in this panel aren't all senior center, they were selling tickets in cash.

832
01:17:30,790 --> 01:17:36,510
Yes, they see, because I see, they don't have a problem line, and other people don't have a problem line.

833
01:17:36,710 --> 01:17:39,130
Well, not just that, but I don't know what I'm saying.

834
01:17:39,650 --> 01:17:41,390
Yeah, all of those on the angle.

835
01:17:41,770 --> 01:17:51,550
Oh, I just want to know why some people were able to pay only $40.

836
01:17:51,550 --> 01:17:57,410
and not everybody knew about that, and I feel it's not fair.

837
01:17:57,970 --> 01:18:04,410
So you know what I'm saying? I have that question that nobody knew.

838
01:18:05,450 --> 01:18:12,870
Yeah. I didn't know. I didn't know that, but maybe Maurice can address it.

839
01:18:12,870 --> 01:18:19,510
Yeah. So I just want to clarify, you paid $45 for your ticket.

840
01:18:22,350 --> 01:18:28,690
because of that because of the service fee. Yeah. So the senior center, the senior center

841
01:18:28,690 --> 01:18:34,470
ink, we were looking for ways to serve those who weren't able to go online and purchase.

842
01:18:34,990 --> 01:18:41,030
They were having technical difficulties and they advertised their tickets at $40 not knowing

843
01:18:41,030 --> 01:18:48,370
that there was going to be a service fee attached to it. So I, it was my fault that I did not let them

844
01:18:48,370 --> 01:18:52,330
know that there was a service fee attached. I should have told them they were $45.

845
01:18:53,810 --> 01:19:00,410
Instead of $40. So I have to take responsibility for that. If there's anyone seeking a

846
01:19:00,410 --> 01:19:06,070
refund for their $5 fee because they didn't, they purchased online, please reach out to

847
01:19:06,070 --> 01:19:09,050
the city and we will, and we will work on that.

848
01:19:11,010 --> 01:19:15,390
I just wanted to say that I've been making announcements just about every other day letting

849
01:19:15,390 --> 01:19:17,330
them know that we have tickets, reselling.

850
01:19:17,850 --> 01:19:21,230
Are you selling them? Are you selling them now? What the service fee?

851
01:19:21,590 --> 01:19:27,470
I will be. Okay. All right. So anybody moving forward is the service fee charge?

852
01:19:27,650 --> 01:19:31,330
So it would be $55. Okay. So I just have a question there.

853
01:19:31,630 --> 01:19:34,110
I need to translate. Okay. Okay. Yeah. Please.

854
01:19:34,610 --> 01:19:37,010
Yeah. If you allow me, please. That's it. Okay.

855
01:19:37,010 --> 01:19:40,290
Pati, what I'm saying, Maurice, I'm going to do it.

856
01:19:40,610 --> 01:19:48,890
This says that the problem of communication,

857
01:19:49,450 --> 01:19:53,590
where they didn't know they were covering that car or extra.

858
01:19:54,410 --> 01:19:56,470
So, then I can't communicate with them.

859
01:19:57,250 --> 01:19:59,770
But I say that if the people are...

860
01:20:05,320 --> 01:20:06,040
Okay.

861
01:20:13,150 --> 01:20:28,750
So my comment on that is the company that's doing the senior problem. Just make sure that you keep what you are on the meeting on Friday that that list, because we're getting acupacity.

862
01:20:28,750 --> 01:20:34,430
So make sure that those people that took that money, you're collecting, that those people

863
01:20:34,430 --> 01:20:36,350
names end up on that list.

864
01:20:36,650 --> 01:20:38,970
I could see where that could be a disconnect.

865
01:20:39,370 --> 01:20:43,610
They show up because we're going to be taking the registrations from the e-vite and if their

866
01:20:43,610 --> 01:20:48,190
names aren't, if it doesn't, if it doesn't die, then we're going to be over-capacity.

867
01:20:48,630 --> 01:20:49,630
Just FYI.

868
01:20:50,510 --> 01:20:52,270
Well, we're not going to be over-capacity.

869
01:20:52,310 --> 01:20:56,670
We're just not going to allow more than 200 people to the venue.

870
01:21:04,570 --> 01:21:10,390
I think we just said a hundred and thirty hundred and forty hundred and forty

871
01:21:10,390 --> 01:21:13,570
But that's the as two hundred hundred

872
01:21:14,470 --> 01:21:18,670
Yes, the ones that the dancers and whatever

873
01:21:18,670 --> 01:21:21,950
No, I'm like I hadn't I counted those at this moment

874
01:21:25,920 --> 01:21:28,440
I need I knew there's numbers to come

875
01:21:29,640 --> 01:21:30,160
Okay

876
01:21:30,160 --> 01:21:33,620
Do you chair if you are if you're old time now?

877
01:21:33,620 --> 01:21:38,620
Oh, it's so time. We can adjourn the meeting.

878
01:21:41,280 --> 01:21:43,300
We can adjourn the meeting.
